[04:30] <bluezone> shcherbak, no, that is my internet card
[04:30] <hasee> m4v sorry jejeje
[04:30] <sacarlson> wolter: oh looks like your atempting to read from a none exiting or badly syntaxed mirror site
[04:30] <DarkStar1> How do I reload my .bashrc?
[04:30] <ShapeShifter499> can I airplay to my ubuntu machine?
[04:30] <ranjan> bluezone, did you try something from here http://www.intel.com/support/wireless/sb/cs-006408.htm
[04:30] <techitch> smw, heres the weird thing, i commented out the ifb0 and ifb1 interfaces restarted networking and now its working again on eth0 but i try pinging ifb0 and ifb1 and it works
[04:31] <techitch> they still appear in ifconfig though
[04:31] <wolter> DarkStar1, try . .bashrc
[04:31] <DarkStar1> without having to log out
[04:31] <ZykoticK9> DarkStar1, the easy way is just type "bash" to load a new shell, but there is a better way
[04:31] <ranjan> DarkStar1, i think by using the "source" command
[04:31] <wolter> ranjan, DarkStar1 source = . right?
[04:31] <bluezone> ranjan, already did, no luck, upgrading kernel fixed the problem though, i upgraded to 2.6.36-020636-generic #201010210905
[04:32] <DarkStar1> ranjan: never used that command before but I'll look into it. thanx
[04:32] <ranjan> wolter, i think its source filename
[04:32] <sacarlson> wolter: I must have missed something,  I don't see anything above that states you are building from ppa
[04:32] <wolter> sacarlson, no, i'm not using a ppa, but I think you nailed it, maybe my mirror is incomplete or something
[04:32] <shcherbak> Naia: Is it 1tb drive your system does not "see"?
[04:33] <Naia> shcherbak: No. That's external drive, usb connected.
[04:34] <DarkStar1> ranjan: Thx. that seems to have dome the job :)
[04:34] <ranjan> DarkStar1, Thanks to the Great Community ;)
[04:35] <DarkStar1> ranjan: Aye.. Thank you all ppl :)
[04:35] <ranjan> DarkStar1, :)
[04:35] <Naia> shcherbak: Excuse me a moment. I'll put system back the way it was, restart and show the original setup. A moment, please.
[04:35] <bluezone> the moment of truth, be right back
[04:35] <shcherbak> Naia: ok, what drives should be visible? 650, 750, 20 Gb?
[04:37] <shcherbak> bluezone: what graphic card do you have?#
[04:39] <bullgard4> Where can I find a somewhat detailed description what '~$ service network restart' does?
[04:40] <ZykoticK9> bullgard4, it shouldn't do anything other then give the error "network: unrecognized service"
[04:40] <Mahjongg> how to make neatx accept keys rather than passwords?
[04:42] <shcherbak> bullgard4: networking
[04:42] <bullgard4> ZykoticK9: If your statement is true then the command is pretty useless. Do you want to tell me this?
[04:42] <bullgard4> shcherbak: Can you elaborate.
[04:43]  * bluezone shoots himself and then hangs himself
[04:43] <r00t4rd3d> lol
[04:43] <ZykoticK9> bullgard4, in older versions of ubuntu I had no problems restarting the network with "/etc/init.d/networking restart" but recent versions I just reboot to refresh networking to be honest
[04:43] <bluezone> now i can get the system to boot properly and i have the open-source driver activated but i still cant change the resolution and my monitor is not detected
[04:44] <shcherbak> bullgard4: sudo service networking <TAB><TAB>
[04:44] <shcherbak> !upstart | bullgard4
[04:44] <bluezone> and when i load the nvidia x server settings it tells me to edit my x configuration file ?
[04:45] <shcherbak> bluezone: remove nvidia driver, jockey-text or in menu.
[04:45] <Naia> shcherbak: http://paste.ubuntu.com/554268/
[04:45] <ZykoticK9> bluezone, if you are using the OS nvidia driver then nvidia-settings no longer applies
[04:45] <sacarlson> bullgard4: on mine service network restart returns network: unrecognized service ,  but normaly service I think runs the script found in /etc/init.d/network  so if you have that file there you can read what's in it to find out what it does
[04:45] <r00t4rd3d> bluezone, nvida-xconfig
[04:46] <shcherbak> Naia: What drives do you want to see?
[04:46] <r00t4rd3d> bluezone, nvidia-xconfig  **
[04:46] <Naia> shcherbak: CD/DVD Player and DVD-+R/Lightscribe.
[04:46] <bluezone> r00t4rd3d, VALIDATION ERROR: Data incomplete in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.

[04:46] <bluezone> New X configuration file written to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[04:46] <ZykoticK9> bluezone, to be honest - i think it's a waste of an nvidia card to use the OS drivers - 3D is not prime-time there yet
[04:46] <FloodBot3> bluezone: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:46] <bluezone> sorry :(
[04:47] <r00t4rd3d> seems you have to edit your xorg.conf file
[04:47] <bluezone> ZykoticK9, yeah but installing the other driver doesnt work either, i already mentioned my problems abouve if u were here awhile ago
[04:48] <gizmobay> I'm trying to run a program at certain time just once. I dl'd another program to do this with a GUI but I can't remeber what it was called.
[04:48] <bluezone> r00t4rd3d, wonderful lol
[04:49] <ZykoticK9> bluezone, nvidia-xconfig said in it's output that it created a new xorg.conf for you.
[04:49] <r00t4rd3d> bluezone, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6592005
[04:49] <r00t4rd3d> goto step 2
[04:49] <gizmobay> nevermind qprogram-starter
[04:50] <ZykoticK9> r00t4rd3d, FYI nv is outdated at this point bluezone - I don't think the nouveau driver is called nv
[04:50] <sacarlson> gizmobay: I run a gui called gnome-schedule
[04:50] <TurmptTarp> fallout new vegas is outdated for a long time now
[04:50] <gizmobay> thanks sacarlson
[04:51] <TurmptTarp> fallout 3 was outdated less than a yaer after its release
[04:51] <shcherbak> Naia: it is very easy, remove both. take empty ide and hook up one drive, boot to bios. do same with second drive (do not slave them yet). if your bios recognise them hook both up, slave if needed.
[04:51] <ZykoticK9> bluezone, nv "might" still work though
[04:51] <TurmptTarp> it doesn't work well in wine either
[04:51] <Naia> shcherbak: Using sata ...
[04:51] <bluezone> ZykoticK9, at this point i am oppened to even going back to ubuntu 1.0 if both my wireless and video card drivers work :(
[04:51] <watermains> help, I installed the nvidia drivers under the repository here: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/06/how-to-install-nvidia-25635-display.html but now when I load up "Hardware Drivers" it tells me "This driver is activated but not currently in use".  I try to run xconfig but get this error: sudo: nvidia-xconfig: command not found" Should I install fglrx-installer
[04:52] <ZykoticK9> bluezone, lol - there was never an ubuntu 1.0 - but i get your point
[04:52] <shcherbak> Naia: did you tried to remove one?
[04:52] <bluezone> ZykoticK9, yep lol
[04:52] <Naia> shcherbak: No... I'll do that now.
[04:52] <randomusr_> is there a decent way to format man pages for printing from gedit?  Currently, I have a lot of sloppy text wrapping.
[04:53] <watermains> Also I am running 10.04, and have an EVGA GTX460 so the package in the official repositories is too old
[04:54] <sacarlson> watermains: I had problems with my nvidia in a similar way,  I just deleted --purged what I did in synaptic and others and used the System>Administration>Hardware drivers,
[04:54] <bluezone> r00t4rd3d, for some reason, i cannot do this step: Find Driver "nvidia" line in Device section, replace it with Driver "nv" and save the file
[04:55] <bluezone> because nvidia is not in the device section
[04:56] <watermains> sacarlson: yeah here's my issue though.  When i booted up from a fresh install, there was nothing listed under "Hardware Drivers".  nothing would install until I selected nvidia-current from apt on the command line or synaptic
[04:56] <sacarlson> watermains: or you could try direct from nvidea site if that fails
[04:56] <watermains> sacarlson: yep, from nvidia site is a last resort.  the troubling thing is, I have 260.xxx installed, but it isn't configuring
[04:56] <Naia> shcherbak: I remove the simple DVD player and nothing shows up in Places>Computer.
[04:57] <KM0201> watermains: what do you mean isn't configuring?
[04:57] <bluezone> you know what (@#$ this (#@# (sorry) but (@#$ i am reformatting and clean install, lol i am losing my mind
[04:57] <TurmptTarp> bluezone, this may sound extreme, but have you considered developing a driver for your video card?
[04:57] <bluezone> haha
[04:58]  * bluezone realizes that if he can't install one that he can't develop one
[04:58] <KM0201> lol
[04:58] <shcherbak> Naia: ls /dev/cd*
[04:58] <TurmptTarp> process of elimination but very broad
[04:58] <watermains> I mean sudo: nvidia-xconfig: command not found
[04:59] <TurmptTarp> just keep trying and i am sure you can setup a half decent one and people can help maybe. we are open source
[04:59] <Naia> shcherbak: ls: cannot access /dev/cd*: No such file or directory
[04:59] <watermains> after I have installed nvidia-current
[04:59] <shcherbak> Naia: is it powered, can you open tray?
[04:59] <bullgard4> ZykoticK9: Thank you for commenting.
[04:59] <bluezone> TurmptTarp, i've scrwed with this 2 days now, i don't think theres something viable that i haven't tried yet
[04:59] <aLemmer> Hey, I'm using Gnome with Window Selector. Sometimes it doesn't display all of the windows. Anyone know what this is about?
[05:01] <el_seano> aLemmer: I've had this issue now and again.  I think it's Compiz occasionally arguing with Metacity.  You can explicitly set some options in gconf-editor
[05:01] <sacarlson> watermains: apears the nvidea 260.19.29 is the latest,  after installed did you see the System>Administration>Nvidea server settings ?
[05:01] <aLemmer> el_seano: Could you elaborate on what that might be, or should I just go digging around?
[05:01] <watermains> sacarlson: no, I don't and also Hardware Drivers tells me "the driver is activated but not currently in use:
[05:02] <kiran> helo
[05:02] <kiran> helloooooooooooooo
[05:02] <el_seano> aLemmer: Honestly, I don't really know the specifics.  I just fiddled around with it trying different settings and eventually got it to work.
[05:02] <bluezone> HIII
[05:03] <el_seano> but do open up gconf-editor, and look under apps->metacity, and apps->compiz for some options.
[05:03] <el_seano> it tends to be more flexible and useful than the gui configuration managers.
[05:03] <sacarlson> watermains: well I was close to where you are by my installing and removeing it messted up stuf,  complete purge all and start from one seems to be the key
[05:03] <Naia> shcherbak: Yes. It is powered.
[05:03] <el_seano> ahem, the other gui configurations.
[05:03] <el_seano> (you can edit gconf through ~/.gconf too, but I wouldn't recommend it)
[05:03] <TurmptTarp> bluezone, i still think you can develop your own video driver. it won't be work out of the box pro retail or anything
[05:04] <shcherbak> dmesg|grep CD
[05:04] <shcherbak> naia: dmesg|grep CD
[05:04] <TurmptTarp> despite popular misconception, there is creativity in programming. not everything needs to meet the same recipe to get teh same job done.
[05:04] <watermains> sacarlson, I'm going to try running jockey-gtk, but if that fails I think I'm first going to wipe out and reinstall, then try again with the ppa first.  this is a new install anyway
[05:04] <bluezone> TurmptTarp, i don't think printf() and scanf() is sufficient to develop that
[05:04] <Naia> shcherbak: Did nothing. Just returned to command line.
[05:05] <TurmptTarp> one sec bluezone, i will hook u up
[05:05] <TurmptTarp> your card is what type though? nivida for sure?
[05:05] <bluezone> yep
[05:05] <bluezone> 8400M GS
[05:05] <sacarlson> watermains: I think you might try the nvidea dirrect first might give you a better chance since you said at first jockey didn't detect anything
[05:06] <watermains> hmmmm, ok, so what should I purge out before trying going nvidia manually? and then which page's steps should I follow to install?
[05:06] <bluezone> TurmptTarp, maybe it is just my xorg.conf that is all screwed up
[05:06] <sacarlson> watermains: but what ever path you take before you try another do a complete --purge of the package before you try the next step
[05:06] <carabobo> UBUNTU GNU/LINUX
[05:07] <shcherbak> Naia: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=659367 ?
[05:07] <Naia> shcherbak: It just really doesn't like this DVD-+R/Lightscribe. Which makes no sense?
[05:07] <watermains> sacarlson OK, thank you
[05:07] <bluezone> i am starting to feel that nvidia is merging with a competence level of adobe
[05:08] <sacarlson> watermains: whatever has nvidia that you installed in synaptic I guess,  if you start from scratch keep track of what you install so you --purge on the next try
[05:09] <TurmptTarp> hey bluezone, just a warning though you will be taking a risk as you develop your video driver
[05:09] <Naia> shcherbak: I am still new. Please refresh command line to open Synaptics Package...
[05:09] <bluezone> what type of risk
[05:10] <TurmptTarp> this best puts it. "Drivers operate in a highly privileged environment and can cause disaster if they get things wrong.[2] In contrast, most user-level software on modern operating systems can be stopped without greatly affecting the rest of the system. Even drivers executing in user mode can crash a system if the device is erroneously programmed. These factors make it more difficult and...
[05:10] <TurmptTarp> ...dangerous to diagnose problems."
[05:10] <TurmptTarp> odd that was smaller when i copied it.
[05:10] <PerfM> I love a big group
[05:10] <PerfM> the more the merrier
[05:10] <PerfM> AMIRITE?!
[05:10] <sacarlson> watermains: oh if it's just a black screen and you still have sound at boot then it's just you have the monitor hooked to the wrong plug on the card
[05:11] <TurmptTarp> don't worry though. it will be fun
[05:11] <watermains> sacarlson no, no black screen.  just low resolution
[05:11] <bluezone> TurmptTarp, mmkay
[05:11] <sacarlson> watermains: oh ok good luck
[05:11] <watermains> yeah, I notice that 260.xxx shows that it supports a 460 but not a 460SE.  I'm not sure which mine is
[05:12] <bto> hi everyone.
[05:12] <sacarlson> watermains: that should be seen with lspci , I assume it would work
[05:12] <bluezone> TurmptTarp, at this point what would be more viable, reformatting or programming the driver?
[05:12] <bto> i've been having a bit of trouble with my laptop when using WiFi on battery
[05:12] <TurmptTarp> reformatting is faster, but there is no guarantee that will help
[05:12] <TurmptTarp> you may be right back in your situation
[05:12] <watermains> sacarlson: ahhh, lspci doesn't see mine accurately, it just kindof says "generic nvidia"
[05:12] <bto> ubuntu seems to do some agressive WiFi power reduction
[05:13] <bto> is there any way to control/reduce that?
[05:13] <TurmptTarp> give me a bit and i will pull up the info you need to program your video driver
[05:13] <bluezone> TurmptTarp, i already know i will end up yeah,,... i fixed my wireless and then i broke my video card drivers, and then both of them broke -.-
[05:13] <sacarlson> watermains: what about lspci -v
[05:13] <shcherbak> Naia: can you put cd into drive?
[05:13] <bluezone> okay
[05:13] <shcherbak> Naia: Why synaptic?
[05:13] <Naia> shcherbak: Yes. I can. Does nothing. I got hwinfo, would you like to see results?
[05:14] <Naia> shcherbak: to install hwinfo. I figured it out. :)
[05:14] <watermains> sacarlson: 08:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Device 0e23 (rev a1)
[05:14] <shcherbak> Naia: lets go, paste it.
[05:14] <bluezone> nvidia sucks fml :(
[05:15] <hasee> bluezone yes, nvidia drivers forlinux suckssss
[05:15] <watermains> sacarlson, I'm still using the PPA which is 260.19.29, the latest which says it supports all the 460s
[05:15] <bluezone> aa hasee you are back
[05:15] <Naia> shcherbak: Whoops. Is so long, the terminal erased some. :-/ Won't get all of it.
[05:15] <shcherbak> Naia: do you have /dev/sr0
[05:15] <watermains> Man, I had been lead to believe it was the ATI drivers for linux that sucked, that nVidia were decent
[05:15] <bluezone> hasee, the think you told me didn't fix my problem unfourtunetely lol
[05:16] <bluezone> hasee, now i can boot onto my system but i still can't change my resoultion and my monitor isnt detected
[05:16] <shcherbak> hwinfo > ~/output && gedit output
[05:16] <sacarlson> watermains: well that's the same as the latiest number I see from nvidea so that should be promissing
[05:16] <TurmptTarp> hasee, i thought it was ATI that sucked for ubuntu linux
[05:16] <watermains> sacarlson, actually I find it kindof troubling that I have the latest version but it still doesn't work
[05:17] <PerfM> I can't believe I didn't introduce myself!
[05:17] <TurmptTarp> i have ATI. but it was too late before i found out
[05:17] <PerfM> HI ThERE!
[05:17] <bluezone> ffs
[05:17] <watermains> I kindof think installing directly from nVidia won't help since its the same version
[05:17] <ice9> ahoy gents
[05:17] <Naia> shcherbak: How do I find out ... if I have /dev/sr0 ? ?
[05:18] <hasee> bluezon sorry, i cant install the official driver (nvidia web) and this way works for me
[05:18] <hasee> bluezone sorry for my bad english
[05:18] <hasee> haha
[05:18] <shcherbak> naia: ls /dev/sr0
[05:18] <Naia> shcherbak: ls: cannot access /dev/sr0: No such file or directory
[05:18] <bluezone> hasee, haha np, i don't know what i screwed up though, because they were working before
[05:18] <NeoKipling[CN]> test ssl 7000 security
[05:19] <hasee> TurmpTarp ATI rocks on ubuntu 10.10
[05:19] <TurmptTarp> ok bluezone this is 18 chapters of reading. but it includes info about network drivers. http://lwn.net/Kernel/LDD3/
[05:19] <shcherbak> Naia: wodim -checkdrive
[05:19] <ice9> so I've been researching and reading forums for the last 2 hours and I apologize, this is all like a new language to me. I installed ubuntu today side by side with my windows 7
[05:19] <TurmptTarp> if you need help just let me know and i will try to program one with ya
[05:19] <bluezone> TurmptTarp, :O i was talking about video card drivers but okay
[05:19] <TurmptTarp> i think this includes video
[05:19] <ice9> and I'm trying to view the windows partition files from ubuntu, and I'm also trying to figure out how to be able to boot back into windows :<
[05:19] <bto> Hi guys, I'd appreciate a little help: when using WiFi on my laptop while connected, I get decent signal and bandwidth and when using WiFi on battery, I get ultra slow internet and a bit lower signal. I'm using the recent broadcom driver. What should I do?
[05:20] <TurmptTarp> or at least by the time you are done you can find the info nvidia or ati has for your card and then easily apply waht you learn
[05:20] <TurmptTarp> have a driver up and going in no time
[05:20] <Naia> shcherbak: http://paste.ubuntu.com/554274/
[05:20] <sacarlson> watermains: seems like you should be able to just do a complete --purge of you ppa driver and reinstall it.  remember it's the last installed that will be running not what is still installed
[05:21] <bullgard4> The command "root@MD97600:/ usr/src/modules/acerhk# make' produces a blinking block cursor on the new line but no error message as mentioned in http.//wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Acer_Hotkeys. Why does this command not terminate normally showing a normal prompt?
[05:21] <Jagden> what time is it?
[05:21] <bto> please? anyone?
[05:21] <atif> hi
[05:22] <bullgard4> Jagden: 06:21 in Berlin.
[05:22] <Jagden> am? :)
[05:22] <atif> how are you
[05:22] <Naia> bto: if you were using a Windows machine, I'd say check the settings. Is it going to a low power state when disconnect cored?
[05:22] <Jagden> good
[05:22] <bullgard4> Jagden: Yes. I used the international time format when reporting to you.
[05:22] <bto> Naia: ubuntu 10.10
[05:23] <atif> good
[05:23] <bto> I used to have 10.04 and this did not happen :(
[05:23] <shcherbak> Naia: back to bios theory, disable cd/dvd (whatever bios see) from boot options, so hard drive would only stay.
[05:23] <TurmptTarp> bluezone, of course you could also just reformatt. i think there are also some guides on how to restore ubuntu to its default settings it had from install. which may fix x-serv.
[05:23] <Jagden> in russia 12 23
[05:23] <bto> I can't find any power settings for the wifi power management
[05:23] <atif> i have broplem with updats
[05:23] <Naia> shcherbak: One moment, please.
[05:23] <TurmptTarp> i am tired and intoxicated for some reason. cya later today. good luck
[05:23] <bluezone> TurmptTarp, maybe that reset to default may work, do you know where to find it?
[05:24] <indras>   bto: I'm having trouble with with wireless in 10.10 as well
[05:24] <TurmptTarp> bluezone one moment
[05:24] <shcherbak> bto: iwconfig wlan0 power off/on
[05:24] <bto> indras: what card?
[05:24] <bluezone> indras, so is the rest of the world IMO, including me
[05:24] <bluezone> indras, i updated to the new kernel which fixed that problem but screwed eveything else up
[05:25] <shcherbak> bto: iwconfig wlan0 txpower <number>
[05:25] <watermains> sacarlson, thank you
[05:25] <TurmptTarp> bluezone, sadly i was wrong. it won't help x-serv issues
[05:25] <bluezone> why

[05:25] <indras> pain in the ass
[05:25] <Iceninecynic> can anyone lend me a hand figuring out how to view files from my windows partition, and also how to boot into windows?
[05:25] <bto> yeah me too indras haha
[05:25] <bto> shcherbak: does that mean it is on? I can't tell

[05:31] <bullgard4> Iceninecynic: Please read 'man mount'.
[05:31] <Guest91572> it keeps heating up and shutting down anyone able to help?]
[05:31] <thiefy> Guest91572, clean the dust out of it.
[05:31] <thiefy> take it apart if you have to.

[05:33] <bullgard4> Guest91572: Please read the Wikipedia article about 'ACPI'.
[05:33] <jhansonxi> Guest91572, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[05:33] <shcherbak> !acpid
[05:33] <Guest91572> ok
[05:34] <shcherbak> !power
[05:34] <shcherbak> !silly bot!
[05:34] <bullgard4> hehe
[05:34] <jhansonxi> Guest91572, try "acpi=off" in particular in the kernel boot options.  To get into it, reboot and hold the left shift key down until you get the menu.

[05:36] <bullgard4> The command "root@MD97600:/ usr/src/modules/acerhk# make' produces a blinking block cursor on the new line but no error message as mentioned in http.//wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Acer_Hotkeys. Why does this command not terminate normally showing a normal prompt?

[05:37] <jhansonxi> Guest91572, acpi=off will keep the laptop from powering off when shutting down so you'll have to force it when it says "system halted".  Just hold the power button down for 10 seconds or so.
[05:37] <zaery> does the dist-upgrade app remove usb functionality?
[05:38] <bullgard4> zaery: Normally not.
[05:38] <PerfM> Normally not what?
[05:38] <Naia> shcherbak: ls /dev/sr*
[05:39] <zaery> odd..... it appears that it stopped mine, my mouse doesn't work. Luckily, it's a laptop :)

[05:40] <Mary-Jane> So hi umm... I was wondering just a simple question. I seem to have downloaded a program called Pulseaudio 3 times.. and it is flooding my HTOP in 3 places with using 5-10% CPU/MEM usage and I just want to know how I can permanently delete only 2 of the programs.
[05:40] <bullgard4> zaery: "doesn't work" is no exact description. Try to give a more exact description so that people can help you better.
[05:41] <Naia> shcherbak: oops. Anyway - when cleaning system, always plug the sata cable back into the motherboard.
[05:41] <frustro> hi all, have a hp dv6000, tried two different d/l iso's (10.10x64) keep getting ubiquity error, says to submit syslog and partman.....(cut off)  but the os never installs far enough to get to the desktop.
[05:41] <Mary-Jane> its /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog 3 times in a row and want it to only have 1
[05:42] <shcherbak> Naia: ok, does it apply to ide too?
[05:42] <zaery> I'm currently running the dist-upgrade app, and my usb mouse doesn't work. It was working a few minutes ago, when the app wasn't in the install phase. Luckily, I'm on a laptop, so i don't need my mouse right now, i have a touchpad that still works.
[05:42] <jhansonxi> frustro, try an "alternate" iso if you can put up with a text-mode interface (no worse then WinXP's installer)
[05:43] <Naia> shcherbak: Both simple DVD and DVD-+R/Lightscribe drives are up and running. ;)
[05:43] <indras> Anyone, anyone, anyone...i need some help setting up wireless for unbuntu 10.10 netbook, i only have a wireless connection, i'm running 10.10 thru usb boot, and i have a broadcam chip. Any suggestions????
[05:43] <Iceninecynic> when I do sudo fdisk -l looking for an ntsf partition, all I get is "linux swap / solaris" "extended" and "linux"
[05:43] <shcherbak> Naia: Weel, to the next one.
[05:43] <Naia> shcherbak: Apparently, when I cleaned system, I didn't plug it back into the motherboard. ;)
[05:43] <Naia> exit
[05:43] <frustro> jhansonxi, thank will try and report back.
[05:44] <Naia> sorry
[05:44] <bullgard4> Mary-Jane: You cannot normally load PulseAudio 3 times. What you have probably done is that you have downloaded several different Pulseaudio subprograms. This is quite normal.
[05:44] <michael_> ?
[05:44] <jhansonxi> indras, Run the "hardware drivers" tool.  You probably need Broadcom firmware which it will install.  Unfortunately you'll need a wired connection so it can get it.
[05:44] <devkorcvince> frustro: i have dv6.i7 but it has kernel and bios problem the only thing that works for my dv is wubi install
[05:44] <michael_> well idin't se wat u posted up\
[05:44] <michael_> but hey
[05:45] <michael_> wat else can i do to fix this problem
[05:45] <michael_> its still over heating
[05:45] <Mary-Jane> It's just I'm on limited RAM with 433 max on my HTOP after System takes it from 512 so I was wondering how I could cut down on that. Nvm then.
[05:45] <indras> jhansonxi: yea i kinda figured that...but i am running windows as well
[05:45] <Mary-Jane> Thank you bullgard4
[05:45] <antonio_> hola
[05:46] <frustro> devkorcvince, this is an older turion64x2. 2gb 80gb nvidia broadcom
[05:46] <PerfM> MaryJANE!
[05:46] <PerfM> YES
[05:46] <PerfM> I was just smoking you
[05:46] <michael_> grrrr
[05:46] <Mary-Jane> I actually quit 5 days ago
[05:46] <Mary-Jane> but am kind've regretting it
[05:46] <michael_> anyone going to help?"(
[05:46] <Mary-Jane> I still have weed right n front of me and a bong... so tempting
[05:46] <michael_> lol
[05:46] <jhansonxi> indras, I think the tool/package is "fwcutter".  Search for that and broadcom and perhaps you'll find an alternate install method.
[05:47] <michael_> the acpi wan't on there?
[05:47] <michael_> help
[05:47] <indras> jhansonxi: they are also restricted drivers and i did look into fwcutter but im running a emachine 250 series and thats unsupported so it says
[05:48] <watermains> sacarlson, still there?
[05:48] <jhansonxi> indras, Another option is to borrow a plug-in wireless adapter from someone; one that doesn't use Broadcom.  Verify your Broadcom device number with lsusb.
[05:48] <atif> by see you soon ^_*

[05:49] <spacevoid> Hey all
[05:49] <PerfM> Hey there

[05:49] <watermains> I purged and reinstalled the latest proprietary nvidia driver(I may not have had to). Jockey still didn't work, so I found instructions on the Ubuntu X wiki and ran "sudo update-alternatives --config gl_conf"
[05:49] <jhansonxi> indras, lsusb (or lspci depending on which bus it's connected to)  will tell you the exact part number (or USB ID which can be looked up).
[05:49] <jrmcm> is there a way to save everything that is typed into and displayed in a terminal to a file somewhere on my system?

[06:03] <elkingrey> Hello! Noob here!

[06:05] <sjuxax> Hello. I have two problems. First, the GDM login screen is shown in the correct resolution, but when I go down to a session, 800x600 is the only option. How do I fix that?
[06:06] <spacevoid> did that too .. they all are maxed up but i can hear nothing
[06:06] <borreguito> but... sudo nautulis  lauches   a files explorer
[06:06] <scriptwarlock> spacevoid who are yuo talking to?
[06:06] <sjuxax> Second, I am trying to configure a manual connection through networkmanager, and have set it up correctly. But route shows the gateway as dslmodem.domain on the static IP and Firefox doesn't work, but it shows teh IP address on auto, and auto works fine.
[06:06] <spacevoid> you
[06:07] <jhansonxi> sjuxax, the limit is either what the driver thinks the card can do or what the monitor reports it can handle over DDC to the driver.
[06:07] <scriptwarlock> dont forget to mention the handles so we can reply to you properly
[06:07] <spacevoid> handles ? whats that
[06:07] <bullgard4> bluezone: I do not know what you precisely mean by "with the gui". Usually you obtain super user privileges using the command prefix in a terminal. -- You can also call 'sudo gksu nautilus' to obtain superuser rights and then copy a file using Nautilus.
[06:08] <frustro> sjuxax, when you manually set the ip, after you enter in the gateway, hit the enter key and not just save or apply. IP tab, netmask tab, gateway enter.
[06:08] <sjuxax> jhansonxi: It works correctly on GDM. Why does GDM get a different report than the user's session?
[06:08] <obscurant1st> is there anyway i could use the start button of my keybopard to open up the menu in my system panel, line windows does?
[06:08] <jhansonxi> sjuxax, Firefox doesn't work with names? IP addresses? both?
[06:08] <sjuxax> frustro: OK, why does that cause a problem? That's a pretty weird limitation
[06:08] <spacevoid> sorry irc noob here ... you mean quoting yourname while i right then i can do that
[06:08] <sjuxax> jhansonxi: Works with IPs, not names
[06:09] <scriptwarlock> obscurantst,  is alt+f1 do?
[06:09] <frustro> sjuxax, i dunnu why, that's what i had to do in network manager for my eth0 in 10.10x64
[06:09] <scriptwarlock> obscurantlst,  is alt+f1 do?
[06:09] <rww> spacevoid: you see how my message has "spacevoid:" at the start of it? do that. except with the nick of the person you're talking to, not yours ;)
[06:09] <frustro> sjuxax, if i didn't, it wouldnt stay.
[06:09] <sjuxax> frustro: OK, thanks, trying it now so might get disconnected.
[06:09] <jhansonxi> sjuxax, If IPs and not names then it's a DNS problem.  In a terminal window do "cat /etc/resolv.conf" and see what the "nameserver" address is.
[06:09] <spacevoid> rww gotcha
[06:09] <obscurant1st> scriptwarlock: thanks, i man i never knew that.
[06:09] <sjuxax> It stays in the list for me, but it doesn't work :\
[06:09] <rww> \o/
[06:10] <obscurant1st> scriptwarlock: but still we cant make the startbutton to do that?
[06:10] <scriptwarlock> obscurantlst,  remap if you want
[06:10] <bluezone> bullgard4: i still can't copy my entire home folder, it still gives me the permission error when using sudo nautilus which makes absolutely no sense
[06:10] <obscurant1st> scriptwarlock: where can i remap that?
[06:10] <jhansonxi> sjuxax, check the logs, /var/log/Xorg.0.log and in /var/log/gdm/*
[06:11] <bushizi> test for the first time
[06:11] <scriptwarlock> obscurantlst,  keyboard shortcuts
[06:11] <spacevoid> scriptwarlock here is a screen of my alsamixer http://i.imgur.com/GwtDg.png
[06:11] <bullgard4> bluezone: "it still gives me the permission error" is no exact description and I cannot help you.
[06:11] <ice_> yun
[06:12] <jhansonxi> sjuxax, the X.org log should indicate what resolutions it thinks are available.  Also check /etc/X11/xorg.conf to see if there are any manual settings there that are overriding the auto-detected ones.
[06:12] <scriptwarlock> spacevoid, is the front midd included?
[06:12] <bluezone> bullgard4: nevermind ill just copy what i can
[06:12] <dagon> hey scriptwarlock how are ya

[06:14] <dagon> Very carefully I guess lol
[06:14] <AegNuddel> There are things my graphics card will not render right even though it says it is OpenGL copatible, has all the stuff enabled, etc.  I managed to put one program into a software rendering mode.  It there any way to make this the default behavior?
[06:14] <obscurant1st> scriptwarlock: in keyboard shortcuts we have to press one more key along with the startbutton, and its amust. So icnt use that. And what does that command you gave me does?
[06:14] <scriptwarlock> spacevoid, how did you check each channel? do you have headphones try each channel

[06:26] <pankaj> nothing happens
[06:26] <borreguito> brianb_  from a termina  :  sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[06:26] <FloodBot3> pankaj: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:26] <sjuxax> Does anyone know now why GDM sees the right res but the user session sees only 800x600 and under?
[06:26] <scriptwarlock> obscurant1st,  hehehe thats all i can do since im not using yet my kubuntu
[06:26] <Lint01> obscurant1st, you need hack the keymap to make Win act as a key
[06:26] <borreguito> after : sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[06:27] <Lint01> it's a modifier in default keymap
[06:27] <scriptwarlock> obscurant1st,  sorry i forgot the K's thing...
[06:27] <obscurant1st> scriptwarlock: :(
[06:27] <knoxy> @pankaj can you elaborate on "lost the taskbar" ?  the menu or panel?
[06:27] <scriptwarlock> obscurant1st,  why not visit the kubuntu channel they are there to help you..
[06:27] <obscurant1st> Lint01: how can i do that. the only problem is I have to assign one more key. SO i think it already acts a s akey
[06:27] <pankaj> knoxy: i have lost the entire panel/taskbar

[06:32] <pankaj> after i run the command given above
[06:32] <gobbe> shnastybiznastic: then you need to use normal gnome
[06:32] <Some_Person> Installing the b43 driver should automatically produce this file somewhere in /lib/firmware, but it is currently very inconvient right now for me to do it
[06:32] <frustro> obscurant1st, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lOa8o1tgIU
[06:32] <gobbe> shnastybiznastic: you cannot remove launcher from unity
[06:33] <shnastybiznastic> well that sucks.  thanks ya'll

[06:35] <pankaj> now it says gnome-panel  no process found
[06:35] <pankaj> does that mean i have no gnome-panel installed?
[06:35] <Some_Person> Does anyone here use the b43 wifi driver? If so, are you willing to do me a quick favor?
[06:35] <glaceman> pankaj: did u tried looking out and in again after u reset the gnome panel ?

[06:39] <obscurant1st> !ot > obscurant1st
[06:39] <frustro> obscurant1st, I have and I love it!
[06:39] <knoxy> ~pankaj do you have panels ?
[06:40] <pankaj> i used to
[06:40] <obscurant1st> frustro: ok, thanks. i will try it.
[06:40] <pankaj> i had two panels one above and one below
[06:40] <pankaj> i removed the down panel
[06:40] <pankaj> and i was using only the top panel after moving the workspaces to the up panel
[06:40] <obscurant1st> btw anyone know how to mkae gdm the default manager? i have set kdm as default desktop manager some days before, now i want to use gdm again
[06:40] <frustro> obscurant1st, I just mentioned it because you said eye candy....
[06:40] <pankaj> and i was using docky for the lower panel functions
[06:40] <pankaj> my docky still works fine
[06:41] <scriptwarlock> obscurant1st, logout and choose gnome
[06:41] <pankaj> but i have lost my top panel and even the panel settings option
[06:41] <glaceman> pankaj: try typing gnome-panel in terminal
[06:41] <obscurant1st> frustro: i love eye candy things. and btw it wont effect very badly on performance right?
[06:41] <pankaj> ok
[06:41] <gobbe> obscurant1st: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[06:41] <frustro> obscurant1st, it's all about the vid card
[06:41] <pankaj> ok the panel is back!
[06:42] <obscurant1st> scriptwarlock: yeah i know that. But when i had an issue with kde, i had to do this from terminal, i mean something like setting desplay manager as kdm.
[06:42] <pankaj> but it gave an error message
[06:42] <pankaj> let me tell you
[06:42] <pankaj> the panel encountered a problem while loading
[06:42] <obscurant1st> frustro: what if i dont have a video card? i have one though! i just wanted to know. Coz my laptop is having over heating issues nowadays! so if its heavy on my system then my system will restart
[06:43] <Some_Person> Does anyone here use the b43 wifi driver? If so, are you willing to do me a quick favor?
[06:43] <indras> Anyone...need help with wireless connection in ubuntu 10.10, i have a broadcom chip and no wired connection, is there any suggestions
[06:43] <pankaj> "OAFIID:GNOME_FastUserSwitchApplet" Do you want to delete  the applet from your configuration?
[06:43] <pankaj> Should i delete the applet to prevent further problems?
[06:43] <scriptwarlock> obscurant1st, you can customize ubuntu for an eye candy look
[06:43] <knoxy> heck yeah
[06:44] <obscurant1st> scriptwarlock: how can i do that? the themes available in gnome dir is not good, i dint like it
[06:44] <Zvrk> pankaj, don't do it
[06:44] <ZykoticK9> pankaj, i get that error when i use the Ubuntu Minimal install - i always said yes to removing
[06:44] <pankaj> should i delete the applet or no?
[06:45] <pankaj> i am confused please advice
[06:45] <pankaj> is that applet necessary or is it dispensable if its causing problems?
[06:45] <Zvrk> pankaj, can you tell me did you play with setting for compiz ccsm
[06:45] <ddr400> hi, if i use Backtrack can i test if my WPA password is enough secure?
[06:45] <pankaj> yes Zvrk i did
[06:45] <obscurant1st> indras: at you will have to get a wired connection to get the drivers i think.
[06:45] <pankaj> that must be it
[06:45] <pankaj> the compiz settings
[06:45] <scriptwarlock> obscurant1st, go to gnome-look.org there are many themes available for your machine
[06:46] <pankaj> i had to use compiz to run docky
[06:46] <Zvrk> pankaj, then just reset ccsm
[06:46] <pankaj> how do i do that zvrk
[06:46] <indras> couldnt i just put them on the usb stick i'm booting 10.10 from though
[06:46] <JackyAlcine> Help! hard drive problem! I can't format and it's complaining about a failure.
[06:46] <scriptwarlock> obscurant1st, as i have said you can customize ubuntu to your likings
[06:46] <ddr400> JackyAlcine: what type of failure?
[06:46] <knoxy> @Jacky you have to unmount before you format. Did you try that from disk utility?
[06:46] <p_res> JackyAlcine: Can you be more specific with the error you're getting?
[06:46] <Zvrk> pankaj, open ccsm and clear your setting to default
[06:47] <pankaj> and what about the applet should i delete it or keep it?
[06:47] <mrchinosun> what is the ubuntu version for laptops
[06:47] <pankaj> i haven't chosen any option yet
[06:47] <knoxy> I vote delete it
[06:47] <JackyAlcine> Well, the SmartData of my SeaGate Portable is telling me that it's failing soon.
[06:47] <mrchinosun> is it netbook or alternative download
[06:47] <JackyAlcine> ^^ p_res
[06:47] <pankaj> one vote for delete
[06:47] <ZykoticK9> mrchinosun, alternate = desktop with debian text installer
[06:47] <pankaj> anyone for keeping the applet :-s
[06:47] <Zvrk> pankaj, i personally keep
[06:47] <obscurant1st> scriptwarlock: ok thats it i am going back to gnome! :D
[06:47] <pankaj> why Zvrk
[06:47] <ddr400> JackyAlcine: you have to tell us which SMART parameters are failing
[06:47] <scriptwarlock> mrchinosun, what do you have laptop or netbook
[06:48] <p_res> JackyAlcine: It could also be a false positive.
[06:48] <pankaj> is it important to keep it?
[06:48] <gobbe> ddr400: this is ubuntu-channel, and backtrack issues should be discussed on other channels
[06:48] <knoxy> @pankaj I couldn't find it in the list of applets for the panel
[06:48] <ddr400> gobbe: ok, was only a yes/no question btm
[06:48] <ddr400> btw
[06:48] <Zvrk> pankaj, because that are my setting for applet
[06:48] <pankaj> i will keep it for now and reset the ccsm
[06:49] <obscurant1st> scriptwarlock: oops sorry i have an ongoing ftp transfer, ill hv to let it complete before switching to gnome!
[06:49] <JackyAlcine> and p_res: And that the sector reallocation count and current pending sector count ddr400
[06:49] <ddr400> JackyAlcine: do immediately a backup
[06:49] <Zvrk> pankaj, that help me but you can do it your way
[06:49] <ddr400> it may fail soon
[06:50] <mrchinosun> can i use ubuntu desktop edition for a LAPTOP??????
[06:50] <scriptwarlock> mrchinosun, of course
[06:50] <ddr400> "sector reallocation count" are bad errors
[06:50] <mrchinosun> alright
[06:50] <obscurant1st> mrchinosun: yeah, i am using it now.
[06:50] <knoxy> @pankaj you might want to try setting the graphics to none real quick and see if it pops back. Right click on the desktop > Change Desktop bg...> Visual effects
[06:50] <JackyAlcine> O.o ddr400 is there anyway to bring it down or fix it?
[06:50] <p_res> JackyAlcine: I get the same message on one of my drives and I know it to be a false positive.
[06:50] <pankaj> aha
[06:50] <ddr400> JackyAlcine: i guess no, they are hardware problems on the drive, if you have the warranty do a RMA now
[06:50] <pankaj> i did change my desktop background recently
[06:51] <pankaj> i still can't use panel settings
[06:51] <pankaj> even though the panel is back
[06:51] <gobbe> mrchinosun: yes you can
[06:51] <indras> obscurant1st: i'm running 10.10 from usb boot, couldnt i just add the drivers on to that and install them
[06:51] <gobbe> mrchinosun: it's just difference of GUI
[06:51] <JackyAlcine> ddr400: >_< This is horrible. p_res, should I just ignore it for now while I wait for the warranty shipment?
[06:52] <p_res> JackyAlcine: But your error may be genuine if you're unable to format the drive.
[06:52] <obscurant1st> indras: yeah could do that. But for that you will need the model number of your crad
[06:52] <knoxy> #pankaj what "settings" like right clicking?
[06:52] <obscurant1st> card*
[06:52] <Zvrk> pankaj, it stack for me help rebooting
[06:52] <ddr400> JackyAlcine: i quote p_res answer
[06:52] <ddr400> try however to do a fsck before, and then a full format
[06:52] <Zvrk> pankaj, sometimes few times
[06:52] <ddr400> maybe could work, but that is NO reliable
[06:52] <JackyAlcine> ddr400: fsck returns an bad magic number error p_res how about zero-bitting?
[06:53] <obscurant1st> indras: something  like lspci will give you the name with model number of the wifi card
[06:53] <ddr400> JackyAlcine: you have to use Seagate's own software to do that
[06:53] <p_res> JackyAlcine: If it formats, it's probably false. If it does not format, then it's probably genuine/
[06:53] <ddr400> look for it on web
[06:53] <p_res> .
[06:53] <pankaj> knoxy the settings-panel option
[06:53] <pankaj> the gui for panel settings it never runs
[06:53] <indras> obscurant1st: its a bcm4312, and that seems to be the big problem one
[06:53] <pankaj> anymore
[06:54] <ddr400> p_res: in 95% of cases you can format anyway, maybe this is a electric failure or other
[06:54] <p_res> ddr400: Fair enough.
[06:54] <bullgard4> What should I do if my 'make' command does not terminate? I did http.//wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Acer_Hotkeys. Why does this command not terminate normally showing a normal prompt ?
[06:55] <knoxy> pankaj: Settings panel? You mean properties? or "Applications Places..."
[06:55] <pankaj> application places
[06:55] <ddr400> JackyAlcine: have you understood our last answers?
[06:55] <p_res> JackyAlcine: I always recommend a drive surface scan using the drive manufacturers own software. I personally use UBCD.
[06:55] <ddr400> quote that
[06:55] <JackyAlcine> p_res: Seagate doesn't have Linux software, and ddr400, yup i did.

[07:09] <pankaj> TESTING
[07:09] <frustro> mrchinosun, not to be rude, but if you can install ubuntu, and get on irc you can use google and follow guides. please perform some research.
[07:09] <obscurant1st> or you can also configure manually laos, which i dont do!
[07:09] <pankaj> !ANYONE
[07:09] <andycc> pankaj, there *should* be a networks icon on your system tray

[07:10] <pankaj> i don't see any additional drivers
[07:10] <pankaj> it say no proprietary drivers installed
[07:10] <scriptwarlock> pankaj, yo you have dozens of concerns please use list manager to let us help you better

[07:11] <obscurant1st> scriptwarlock: what is list manager?
[07:11] <pankaj> dannylopez use the ubuntu software center
[07:12] <andycc> pankaj: open a terminal (applications > accessories > terminal), type "lspci | grep Network" (you can use shift-insert to paste into terminal btw) and paste results here
[07:12] <obscurant1st> dannyLopez:goto synaptic and search for vlc and then install it
[07:12] <ZykoticK9> dannyLopez, "sudo apt-get install vlc" from terminal should also work
[07:12] <shcherbak> dannyLopez: sudo apt-get install vlc
[07:12] <scriptwarlock> rww, nah just a joke since panel options is not yet solved and he jumping back and forth to another concerns

[07:15] <scriptwarlock> obscurant1st, im starting to help him on panel options and he jumps to other concern so how cant help him on doing that
[07:15] <pankaj> am i unmuted now?

[07:16] <pankaj> yea
[07:16] <pankaj> but i was muted
[07:16] <pankaj> i was listing my pci devices
[07:16] <ZykoticK9> Froodle, are you using Gnome's screensaver?  there is another as well.  "ps aux | grep screensaver" show anything interesting?
[07:16] <obscurant1st> pankaj: use pastebins for pasting anything more than 3 lines.
[07:16] <pankaj> what is a pastebin
[07:16] <ZykoticK9> !paste | pankaj
[07:16] <ddr400> !pastebin
[07:16]  * scriptwarlock thinks pankaj is new on ubuntu?
[07:17] <Froodle> ZykoticK9, "xscreensaver -no-splash"
[07:17] <obscurant1st> scriptwarlock: i think he is new to irc, dont know pastebins. :o
[07:17] <pankaj> i am kinda new on ubuntu but not that new
[07:17] <ZykoticK9> Froodle, so "killall xscreensaver" then ;)
[07:17] <dannyLopez> Dependence can not be satisfied: vlc-nox (= 1.1.4-1ubuntu1) that appear wen i try to install the vlc
[07:17] <scriptwarlock> ok
[07:17] <Froodle> Okay, killed, but what about after reboot...?
[07:17] <pankaj> i have just started taking more interest than i did before
[07:17] <ZykoticK9> Froodle, this will only temporarily disable - after reboot it will be restarted
[07:17] <scriptwarlock> pankaj, thats good
[07:18] <Froodle> Figured.
[07:18] <obscurant1st> pankaj: good for you. but you could use google a little more!
[07:18] <pankaj> because i want to use ubuntu for all my personal use office use and also help others
[07:18] <pankaj> because windows 7 really pissed  me off completely
[07:18] <andycc> dannyLopez, don't use .deb files
[07:18] <frustro_> dannyLopez, are you using source or deb?
[07:18] <pankaj> its like i pay for my slavery
[07:18] <obscurant1st> pankaj: yeah, i use ubuntu for everything, office/home/blah/blah, literally for everything
[07:19]  * Froodle thinks pankaj said it right.
[07:19] <pankaj> how do you emote in here
[07:19] <Froodle> Use /me.
[07:19] <pankaj> ok
[07:19] <pankaj> use/me

[07:19] <obscurant1st> pankaj: you dint like windows7? wow, i lovd it! but still linux is freedom!
[07:19] <pankaj> windows 7 has more feautures but also more restrictions

[07:21] <bazhang> pankaj, lets take chat elsewhere please
[07:21] <scriptwarlock> pankaj, please make a list of your concerns so i/we can start helping you..
[07:21] <pankaj> but i chat relevant dude like i am here to solve problems while talking about them
[07:21] <andycc> obscurant1st, possibly because it includes nonfree stuff
[07:21] <Connor> Hey folks..I'm having a issue with my system.. I'm running a dual screen  setup.. with a ATI Card.. it works.. however.. once in a while the  primary screen will suddenly get laggy, and scrolling and moving windows  is choppy.. restarting X fixes it.. but, it happens way to often.. anyone have any idea what's going on?
[07:21] <rww> obscurant1st: because it doesn't use Ubuntu's repositories and makes changes that we don't support. Same reason Ubuntu is not a supported derivative in #debian.
[07:21] <pankaj> communication is the key here :-b
[07:21] <obscurant1st> andycc: it includes non free stuff, oh i see, i never knew that!
[07:22] <andycc> pankaj, the #ubuntu-offtopic channel is for chat iirc

[07:22]  * pankaj thinks why put emotes in technical channels
[07:22] <bazhang> pankaj, stop that
[07:22] <obscurant1st> rww: oh isee. but i think ubuntu people should include some more applications like vlc in their dvd version
[07:22] <rww> Ubuntu also includes non-free stuff. See the entire 'restricted' repository and non-free kernel firmware.
[07:22]  * pankaj agrees with obscurant1st
[07:22] <Froodle> shcherbak, Perfect, thank you!
[07:22] <obscurant1st> rww: oh, ok. =|
[07:22] <andycc> obscurant1st, vlc is patent-encumbered, so redistributing it freely is illegal in the US
[07:23] <obscurant1st> andycc: oh, thats bad! real bad!
[07:23] <frustro_> sweet the bcm43 worked.
[07:23] <rww> most software is patent-encumbered.
[07:24] <Jordan_U> rww: "hello, world" is patent-encumbered.
[07:24] <andycc> rww: yes, but the mp3/mpeg/... patents can actually be enforced.
[07:25] <watermains> I have an issue with my nvidia card: I finally got the current driver from the ppa and got it activated, however 640x480 was the max resolution that the nvidia configuration gui would give me in the option list.  I manually set it to 1024x768 by selecting "advanced."  It set my resolution to that, but the pixels are the same size, I have to pan around my screen.  oh yeah, I guess I set that in panning.... I can't get the
[07:25] <watermains>  pixel depth right!
[07:26] <weez> can anyone recommend a good c++ ide in ubuntu?
[07:26] <watermains> weez, I like code::blocks and netbeans.  but coding in gedit and compiling on the command line can be pretty nice, too
[07:27] <andycc> weez: eclipse would be the universally recommended ide, then you have netbeans, code::blocks, anjuta... oh, and there's nokia's qt creator
[07:27] <dannyLopez> ToT I can't install the vlc
[07:27] <frustro_> watermains, I had the same issue quite a few times. my solution was to break X completly, get to a txt console when you try to login (like runlevel 3 style) then I used apt-get remove for the nvidia and then apt-get install nvidia to reinstall, reboot and it worked for me.
[07:27] <obscurant1st> andycc: Qr creator, i love it!, its one of the best i have ever used!
[07:27] <Connor> anyone ?
[07:27] <obscurant1st> dannyLopez: goto synaptic and install it!
[07:28] <obscurant1st> !anyone
[07:28] <dannyLopez> obscurant1st: Failed to fetch http://co.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/libc/libcdio/libiso9660-7_0.81-4_i386.deb 404  Not Found thay error appear when i try to intall
[07:29] <watermains> frustro_ I think that will get me back to 640x480 res, but then how do I get _actual_ higher resolutions, or might that be solved when I plug in an LCD?  currently i'm on a CRT
[07:29] <obscurant1st> dannyLopez: sudo apt-get update
[07:29] <weez> watermains, does code::blocks have a good debugger? Woud it b easy to use the code::blocks debugger and compile on the command line?
[07:29] <shcherbak> dannyLopez: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get install vlc
[07:29] <obscurant1st> ^
[07:29] <shcherbak> ^^
[07:31] <frustro_> watermains, I have a 32" lcd @1360x768. on fresh install I was stuck at 1024x768 max. I did the panning thing too. after mucking with xorg.conf I broke x so bad it couldn't start the x server. after a little trial and error, I deleted the xorg.conf, removed the nvidia driver, reinstalled and rebooted. i had my higer resolution.
[07:31] <watermains> weez, cb uses the same debugger (gdb) as most other tools in linux, including command line compile
[07:32] <watermains> weez to answer your second q, if you compile on the command line, you will get your debugging statements in the same terminal, not in any other program.  nothing wrong with that, though
[07:33] <watermains> weez edit: except if you get those debugging statements in the terminal, you won't see the lines highlighted in your IDE
[07:33] <weez> watermains, I was hoping to step through the program and see the variables as I step
[07:33] <frustro_> watermains, maybe someone else here can assist with killall for X so that you are forced to CLI, then mv the xorg.conf to .old and then remove and reinstall the nvidia driver.
[07:34] <sam-_-> frustro_, you can always go to cli and i have a feeling watermains knows how
[07:34] <watermains> frustro_ well I can go back to the opensource driver once I uninstall nvidia completely
[07:35] <watermains> my issue is that after a couple install / reinstall sessions I still don't get higher resolutions on my crt. I'm suspecting I won't until I plug in an LCD
[07:36] <sam-_-> watermains, or edit xorg.conf manually
[07:36] <frustro_> sam-_-, I moved to ubuntu from centos 5.3, so I was able to init 3 from terminal and go that route. I asked once here and I was told that's not possible. no one at that time was able to direct me as init was no longer used, so i gave up. open to suggestions or hints though. google is my friend.
[07:36] <kiran> #
[07:37] <Guest76395> hello
[07:37] <watermains> well I've already edited xorg.conf manually to end the panning and go back to 640x480.  Just haven't restarted x server because it would kick me out of IRC.  I don't know how to edit xorg.conf to really get good results
[07:37] <sam-_-> frustro_, you can select your runlevel even before booting
[07:37] <Diverdude> Is it possible to enable Wake On Lan in Ubuntu 10.10 server ed. ?
[07:38] <sam-_-> frustro_, also sudo stop gdm and there you have your runlevel 3
[07:38] <frustro_> sam-_-, perfect, now just one more.... ubuntu doesn't use init anymore it uses (this is the part where the init replacement is named)
[07:38] <frustro_> sam-_-, gah! no! just hints! :)
[07:38] <sam-_-> frustro_, upstart it's called upstart
[07:39] <frustro_> sam-_-, thanks.....it's been a few week's and I had forgotten.
[07:39] <dks_> hello
[07:39] <watermains> if I do hack xorg.conf successfully and get higher res, what is the rough likelyhood that updates will break it?
[07:39] <Guest76395> hello dks_
[07:40] <JackyAlcine> ddr400: I got around the issue by formatting it to the Minix format.
[07:40] <JackyAlcine> It seem to work
[07:40] <sam-_-> frustro_, you can change your runlevel with the cmd: telinit
[07:40] <sam-_-> frustro_, example: sudo telinit 3
[07:40] <mysho> how can i run some terminal commands on startup?
[07:41] <JackyAlcine> mysho: Write a .sh script and then add it to your startup applications list
[07:41] <mysho> thanks
[07:41] <JackyAlcine> No problem, mysho.
[07:41] <sam-_-> mysho, or the easy way. put them in /etc/rc.local
[07:41] <watermains> mysho you know where to find startup applications list?

[07:46] <obscurant1st> i have a doubt, do tor does the encryption before forwarding the packets to another tor user?
[07:46] <Diverdude> so is it apt-get upgrade or apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[07:46] <rww> obscurant1st: yes
[07:46] <obscurant1st> rww:  thanks!
[07:46] <Guest76395> Diverdude:apt-get update
[07:46] <rww> obscurant1st: however, the exit node can see what the receiving server can see
[07:47] <watermains> Diverdude dist-upgrade will take you from one release to another, ie 10.04 to 10.10
[07:47] <bazhang> watermains, no
[07:47] <paul__> does anyone know a command line command that logs me out of an x windows session?
[07:47] <rww> obscurant1st: so you should use an encrypted protocol anyway.
[07:47] <bazhang> !dist-upgrade | watermains
[07:47] <Diverdude> watermains, i dont want that...i only want to upgrade packets
[07:47] <obscurant1st> rww: so login into blogs i mean wordpress blog which dont use https, is not secure if i use tor?
[07:47] <bazhang> Diverdude, it does not do that
[07:48] <watermains> bazhang oh thanks
[07:48] <rww> obscurant1st: correct
[07:48] <Guest76395> Diverdude;than try sudo apt-get dist upgrade
[07:48] <obscurant1st> rww: ok, thanks
[07:48] <Diverdude> Guest19189, yep its perfect. thx
[07:48] <rww> obscurant1st: TOR connections go like this: you -> (tor node -> tor node -> ... -> tor node) -> tor exit node -> server. TOR itself stops people within the (brackets) from seeing what you're communicating.

[07:52] <Diverdude> is this a good way of enabling wake on lan? http://fancyit.wordpress.com/2010/10/31/enable-wol-wake-on-lan-in-ubuntu-10-10-2/
[07:52] <frustro-wifi-bcm> yay wifi on bcm43 driver!
[07:52] <akav> I frequently get a back screen after waking my laptop from sleep. Any way to recover from this gracefully?
[07:53] <sam-_-> gusg, gnome-volume-control → input → choose
[07:54] <dagon_> I'm back
[07:55] <sam-_-> akav, look into /etc/default/acpi-support
[07:55] <gusg> sam-_-: the character before and after ¨input¨ did not display for me
[07:55] <SUN_> hey i just installed the Unity 2D Qt interface and i cant get the panel to load right. anyone know why?
[07:55] <sam-_-> gusg, gnome-volume-control -> input -> choose
[07:56] <gusg> sam-_-: thanks. I will give it a try
[07:56] <mmo|> Anyone know how to disable update checking when loggin into the terminal? Sometimes I have to wait an annoyingly long time when logging into my server via ssh because it checks for updates so it can tell my how many packages can be updated...
[07:56] <akav> sam-_-, can you explain that a little further? How would looking into that solve the problem when it happens?
[07:56] <akav> sam-_-, I assume this is due to a faulty driver.
[07:56] <sam-_-> akav, you can select different suspend methods there.
[07:57] <akav> sam-_-, how do I know which one to choose?
[07:57] <sam-_-> akav, you don't unless you what's causing your problem.
[07:57] <spider_> anybody
[07:58] <spider_> 有人吗
[07:58] <JackyAlcine> Thank you everyone for helping me out! My drive's back online!
[07:58] <sam-_-> akav, i would try setting APCI_SLEEP_MODE  to standby
[07:58] <spider_> acpi
[07:58] <spider_> itis really aproblem
[07:58] <SUN_> anyone running unity right now?
[07:59] <SUN_> ive got a prob with mine
[07:59] <zhjhqk> 有
[07:59] <lebagong> salome
[07:59] <spider_> shi 中国人吗
[07:59] <spider_> 呵呵
[07:59] <bazhang> !cn | spider_
[08:00] <anup> helow
[08:00] <sam-_-> SUN_, you talked about unity without opengl. i'm intrigued. where can i find out more?
[08:00] <spider_> hello
[08:00] <SUN_> http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/01/unity-2d-gets-a-ppa/
[08:00] <spider_> i will go now bye
[08:01] <sam-_-> akav, are you using restricted drivers. then you may want to add them to the MODULES list in the file given
[08:02] <akav> sam-_-, "acpi-support" is not currently enabled in /etc/default/acpi-support. And my notebook has Intel graphics.
[08:02] <akav> sam-_-, so driver support should be solid in theory
[08:02] <anup> ubuntu 10.10 rocks
[08:02] <frustro-wifi-bcm> thanks for the help with getting ubuntu on this box, not sure why the alternative worked and not the gui version, but i'm 100% now. Thanks #ubuntu!
[08:02] <sam-_-> !ot | anup
[08:03] <sam-_-> akav, what do you mean it is not enabled?
[08:04] <anup> how to actiavate fire effect in ubuntu
[08:04] <bazhang> anup, in ccsm?
[08:04] <akav> sam-_-, SUSPEND_METHODS="dbus-pm dbus-hal pm-utils"
[08:04] <anup> it did insalled ccsm bt i can only fine blur efect
[08:04] <anup> i could not find fire effect
[08:04] <sam-_-> akav, looks fine
[08:04] <akav> # acpi-support: Use the legacy built-in suspend/hibernate support. (DEPRECATED)
[08:04] <bazhang> anup, try installing the extra plugins; /j #compiz for better answers
[08:05] <anup> can u name any few better plugins
[08:05] <sam-_-> akav, yes. as said there: DEPRECATED
[08:05] <akav> sam-_-, then it says the options below only work for the deprecated apci-support method.
[08:05] <ZykoticK9> anup, compiz-fusion-plugins-extra is a package
[08:05] <bazhang> anup, apt-cache search compiz should list some
[08:06] <akav> sam-_-, so I take that to mean that changing ACPI_SLEEP_MODE as you suggested will have no effect.
[08:06] <sam-_-> akav, oh. cheers for actually reading the thing :-)
[08:06] <anup> thnx dduue
[08:06] <sam-_-> akav, suppose so
[08:06] <akav> sam-_-, haha
[08:07] <rs_> hey guys
[08:07] <rs_> could someone please direct me to a good c++ programming channel?
[08:07] <rs_> (newbie here)
[08:07] <newbiee> how can i bypass th root account through normal user in ubuntu 10.10
[08:07] <newbiee> plzzz help mee
[08:07] <ZykoticK9> !helpme | newbiee
[08:08] <bazhang> newbiee, use sudo
[08:08] <histo> !sudo | newbiee
[08:08] <fubada> hi can someone let me know what the best way to get xorg is. i just loaded minimal on my macbookpro
[08:08] <histo> newbiee: what do you mean by bypass exactly?
[08:08] <fubada> apt-get install xorg gnome?
[08:08] <histo> fubada: suo apt-get install xorg
[08:08] <fubada> is "Unity" out?
[08:08] <histo> fubada: s/suo/sudo
[08:08] <histo> !unity > fubada
[08:09] <fubada> ok
[08:09] <r00t4rd3d> you can install it yes
[08:09] <ZykoticK9> fubada, if you want gnome on minimal use the package gnome-desktop-environment - gnome by itself will fail
[08:09] <fubada> so when you load ubuntu desktop 10.10 is it "gnome"?
[08:09] <fubada> ok cool
[08:09] <gobbe> fubada: yes it is
[08:09] <fubada> lol thatys a lot of pkg's
[08:09] <fubada> thanks
[08:10] <r00t4rd3d> fubada, unity isnt official yet though
[08:10] <fubada> ok
[08:10] <sam-_-> btw. can you use unity without compiz?
[08:10] <fubada> is it cool or is it gona be a flop?
[08:10] <r00t4rd3d> flop
[08:10] <ZykoticK9> sam-_-, with a PPA i guess it is possible in 11.04
[08:10] <Sonne> greetings!
[08:10] <ddr400> how much time approx does a https connection stay active when idle? i know it's OT, but...
[08:10] <fubada> how do i load my correct nvidia drivers on my macbook pro
[08:10] <r00t4rd3d> unless you put it on something with a touch screen
[08:10] <fubada> its 6.2 mbp
[08:10] <sam-_-> ZykoticK9, so you have to choose at compile time?
[08:10] <fubada> ddr400: dpends on the servers TTL
[08:10] <fubada> keep alive
[08:10] <fubada> etc
[08:11] <andycc> fubada: system > administration > additional drivers?
[08:11] <ZykoticK9> sam-_-, i don't understand what you just asked?
[08:11] <fubada> andycc: thanks, im sorry i dont use gui
[08:11] <fubada> and i just decided to use linux gui for my dailylaptop driver
[08:11] <fubada> thanks
[08:11] <ZykoticK9> sam-_-, 11.04 will have Unity with Compiz (instead of current mutter) AND there will be a 2d version
[08:11] <r00t4rd3d> if you dont use gui nvidia drivers are pointless
[08:11] <IXTLA> hello everybody
[08:12] <ddr400> fubada: k, just notice that on paypal it's very short, eg. comparing to ebay's one
[08:12] <sam-_-> ZykoticK9, ok. thx.
[08:12] <r00t4rd3d> fubada, why you need 3d acceleration , etc with no gui or x ?
[08:12] <blankname1> anyone have solution for missing menus in wxpython apps? similar to this; http://bugs.playonlinux.com/en/issue-59.html
[08:13] <ddr400> blankname1: so it's a known issue?
[08:13] <blankname1> havent found it anywhere but there
[08:14] <ddr400> it's a wine application?
[08:14] <jayd3e> where is the mime.c file at?
[08:14] <shifnix> ok, i am completely lost on how apache has been implemented in ubuntu 9=
[08:14] <andycc> ddr400, no, it's apparently a wxpython app
[08:14] <Sonne> jayd3e, you might want to put a little more details there
[08:15] <blankname1> ther is a bt
[08:15] <ddr400> blankname1: you need to explain better
[08:15] <blankname1> ddr400: uhm, i think the bug report at pol explains it well enough. menus are not shown in wxpython apps
[08:16] <jayd3e> Sonne:  isn't it in a specific location in ubuntu?
[08:16] <blankname1> ddr400:  also here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wxwidgets2.8/+bug/682478
[08:16] <Sonne> jayd3e, that looks like a source code...
[08:16] <jayd3e> it is
[08:16] <ddr400> sry i did not read it
[08:17] <Sonne> what do you need it for?
[08:17] <jayd3e> I just don't know where at in src
[08:17] <ddr400> you mean like file/modify etc menus?
[08:17] <Sonne> what are you trying to do?
[08:17] <blankname1> ddr400: yes, but the ubuntu bts had a fix
[08:17] <blankname1> which seems to work so far..
[08:18] <ddr400> and if you do that fix what happens different? just nothing?
[08:19] <blankname1> ddr400: the menus show up again
[08:19] <fubada> after installing gnome-desktop-environemnt meta package, can I reboot and expect xinit to happen
[08:19] <fubada> ?
[08:19] <ddr400> sry, but why do you ask for a solution then? i dont get it :-)
[08:19] <blankname1> ddr400: i *just* found the ubuntu ticket :)
[08:19] <jayd3e> Sonne:  I'm trying to get ushare to support .mkv files, by adding it in mime.c
[08:20] <jayd3e> Sonne:  it might not work, but just giving it a try
[08:20] <ddr400> that's quite lol, isn't it?
[08:20] <Sonne> jayd3e, i believe the informations you're taking your plan from refers to modifying that file inside the source code of the app that isn't working as expected
[08:21] <Sonne> which would mean downloading the sources, modifying them, recompiling and overwriting the version you have installed
[08:21] <Sonne> it's not exactly an easy task, i'd ask for help from a slightly more knowledged friend if i was you :)
[08:21] <jayd3e> Sonne:  that makes more sense, true
[08:23] <ddr400> anyone is using 11.x version stably here? just to know if it's quite good or not
[08:23] <bazhang> ddr400, #ubuntu+1 for the alpha
[08:23] <sam-_-> !natty | ddr400
[08:23] <andycc> jayd3e, or just look up a patching howto and the ubuntu easy packaging guide (or what it's called)
[08:24] <ddr400> ok, tkx
[08:24] <majid_> Hi. I cannot download google chrome web browser through google.com. I want a mirror for the latest stable release of chrome for ubuntu 32 bit. Who can help me?
[08:24] <beginer> bye
[08:24] <bazhang> majid_, get chromium-browser , its in the repos
[08:24] <ddr400> majid_: maybe you mean chromium?
[08:24] <ddr400> :-)
[08:24] <sam-_-> majid_, sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
[08:25] <ddr400> it's worthy to use chromium instead of Firefox? on windows i dont like it much
[08:25] <majid_> I think the chromium is older than the chrome and chrome is better. Isn't it?
[08:25] <sam-_-> ddr400, to each his/her own
[08:25] <paul__> firefox has "dope" plugins
[08:25] <andycc> majid: chromium is newer
[08:25] <rww> majid_: no
[08:26] <bazhang> majid_, no
[08:26] <ZykoticK9> majid_, chrome = google proprietary, chromium = open source development version
[08:26] <ddr400> dope? so no working well? i dont notice that either
[08:26] <andycc> majid_, chrome is a stable-er variant of chromium
[08:26] <majid_> Can I install all addons of chrome in chromium?
[08:27] <sam-_-> majid_, yes
[08:27] <majid_> Thank you much
[08:27] <_Rawr> okay.. if my harddisk has 4 partitions( boot swap root home), and i connect it through usb (using an ide to usb cable)
[08:27] <_Rawr> i want to access the home partition
[08:27] <_Rawr> how do i mount it?
[08:28] <andycc> _Rawr, first use fdisk -l to see the partition layout
[08:28] <_Rawr> okay, i got the partition layout already
[08:28] <sam-_-> _Rawr, doesn't it show up in nautilus?
[08:29] <_Rawr> sorry i'm not on ubuntu
[08:29] <sam-_-> _Rawr, so on which os do you want to mount it?
[08:29] <szpreader> hi, can you make transmission start at startup?
[08:29] <andycc> _Rawr, then either use mkdir "/mnt/home" and then "mount /dev/sd** /mnt/home" where /dev/sd** is the right partition.
[08:29] <akhyariz> _Rawr, you can read the manual: "man mount"
[08:30] <_Rawr> when i try to mount it automatically using dolphin i get http://pastie.org/1462775 .. the output of dmesg | tail is below
[08:30] <bazhang> szpreader, put it in startup applications
[08:30] <ZykoticK9> szpreader, System / Preferences / Startup Applications - and add an entry
[08:30] <sam-_-> szpreader, yes. system -> prefs -> startup apps
[08:30] <szpreader> ok, many thanks
[08:30] <_Rawr> i tried mounting /dev/sdd4 but it says
[08:30] <_Rawr> mount: special device /dev/sdd4 does not exist
[08:31] <szpreader> oh, what should I write at the command field?
[08:31] <andycc> _Rawr, then it probably doesn't exist. Are you sure it's /dev/sdd*? What distro are you using after all?
[08:31] <_Rawr> yea i'm sure. arch
[08:32] <_Rawr> at least fdisk -l shows it to be...
[08:32] <sam-_-> _Rawr, you do realize that arch is NOT ubuntu right?
[08:32] <the_cyber_guy> why am i unable to adjust brightness on my laptop which has intel hd graphics with intel i3 ?
[08:32] <andycc> _Rawr, in textmode or are you using some sort of lightweight GUI?
[08:32] <bazhang> _Rawr, #archlinux
[08:33] <andycc> _Rawr, if you just want to recover stuff you'll be better off using Puppy Linux.
[08:33] <ddr400> the_cyber_guy: do you have the control bar for that?
[08:34] <_Rawr> alright sorry for asking, just thought i could get some help here
[08:34] <sam-_-> the_cyber_guy, the buttons don't get recognized by ubuntu
[08:34] <the_cyber_guy> ddr400: controls on my laptop, fn + brightness
[08:35] <ddr400> ok, maybe a specific tool could help - i hope there is one for that :-)
[08:35] <sanduz2> does anyone know of a usb wireless adapter that works with ubuntu?
[08:35] <sanduz2> ive never used one with linux so i dont know if they work automatically or what
[08:36] <sam-_-> sanduz2, almost any: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[08:36] <brontoeee> i had one that did work automagically sanduz2
[08:36] <ddr400> sanduz2: many of them work like a charm
[08:36] <sanduz2> nice thanks guys
[08:36] <ddr400> but keep attention to broadcom's and some Intel's
[08:37] <JackyAlcine> ddr400: I tried formatting the system to jfs, and it seemed to work.
[08:37] <JackyAlcine> ddr400: But it hung on the Ubuquity installer.
[08:38] <jayd3e> is anyone familiar with ushare?
[08:38] <ddr400> why jfs and not a "simple" ext4?
[08:38] <JackyAlcine> ddr400: It doesn't work with any of the ext* family formats.
[08:39] <JackyAlcine> ddr400: It can format to Minix, FAT16/32, or even swap.
[08:39] <ddr400> you need to use Seagate's provided sw...it's better
[08:39] <ddr400> then you reformat with any linux..
[08:39] <ddr400> try that
[08:40] <ddr400> dont's use strange filesystems...you wont go anywhere
[08:41] <JackyAlcine> ddr400: I don't have a Windows system to run it on though. Should I try WINE'ing it?
[08:41] <andycc> JackyAlcine, if it deals with hardware you probably shouldn't.
[08:41] <ddr400> no, as i told before, you do a bootable DOS/Freedos Usb key with that software on it
[08:42] <ddr400> it's easy
[08:43] <JackyAlcine> Would UBCD still work?
[08:44] <ddr400> WINE'ing a format is the worst thing to do..
[08:44] <JackyAlcine> if I made a usb key of UBCD.
[08:47] <ddr400> ok jacky
[08:47] <jilem> hello !
[08:48] <JackyAlcine> ddr400: I found something! They have a Seagate recovery system based on FreeDOS!
[08:48] <JackyAlcine> I'm definitely making a forum post about this.
[08:48] <stiv2k> hi, how do I change to require a password when I log in? currently it logs me in automatically but I still have to enter my password 3 times before I can do things.  Ridiculous!
[08:48] <illuminaris> Anyone willing to troubleshoot WOW + ATI Radeon 9800 Pro issues with me?
[08:49] <illuminaris> Also, is it possible to install windows as a dual boot within Ubuntu or do you have to install windows first?
[08:49] <jilem> Will Ubuntu 11.04 have a quickstarter on system tray to load faster the LibreOffice ? Because OpenOffice and LibreOfice latest versions starts very slow on my system ... :(
[08:49] <tankie> you can do it having ubuntu installed first
[08:49] <soreau> illuminaris: You want xorg-edgers to get gallium
[08:50] <Stava> So my computer is making a buzz sound, as if a fan is broken or something (i dont know really). It starts when I login (not when i turn on the computer), so if i log out and in again, the sound will stop for a while. What is that about? Can I troubleshoot it?
[08:50] <illuminaris> soreau you're speaking a foreign language, how do i find this stuff?
[08:50] <rww> jilem: 11.04 discussion in #ubuntu+1
[08:50] <soreau> illuminaris: Which version of ubuntu are you using?
[08:51] <stiv2k> Stava: maybe your CPU fan speed is controlled based on the temperature
[08:51] <stiv2k> Stava: and it makes noise at higher speed
[08:51] <ddr400> JackyAlcine: i told you
[08:51] <jilem> rww: ok.sorry.
[08:51] <illuminaris> soreau I am using Ubuntu 11.04
[08:52] <Stava> stiv2k, its an intel core i3 cpu :o
[08:52] <ddr400> JackyAlcine: try a low level format, could save you hard disk
[08:52] <stiv2k> Stava: desktop or laptop
[08:52] <soreau> illuminaris: Then you should be asking in #ubuntu+1 or #radeon
[08:52] <Stava> stiv2k, thing is though, it started yesterday. Laptop
[08:52] <mysho> how can i run .sh script with sudo without needing to type password everytime?
[08:52] <stiv2k> Stava: yeah i would check for debris in the fan
[08:52] <soreau> illuminaris: What is the output of 'glxinfo|grep renderer'?
[08:52] <stiv2k> Stava: dust or lint or paper
[08:52] <ddr400> Stava: could be a problem of the fan's bearing
[08:53] <Stava> ddr400, Such as dust, lint or paper as stiv2k suggests?
[08:53] <illuminaris> soreau OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R300 (R350 4E48) 20090101 x86/MMX+/3DNow!+/SSE TCL DRI2
[08:53] <ddr400> yeah
[08:53] <Stava> alright
[08:53] <q_a_z_steve> IdleOne rww I'm just torrenting xubuntu lucid but I am confused. on http://torrent.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/lucid/release/desktop/ (my reason for asking here) it shows the complete iso as being 681MB, bur the torrent file shows to be 714MB. First where does the disparity come from, and second, are they really producing iso's over 700 and expecting them to burn?
[08:53] <stiv2k> hi, how do I change to require a password when I log in? currently it logs me in automatically but I still have to enter my password 3 times before I can do things.  Ridiculous!
[08:53] <Stava> thanks i'll check it out
[08:53] <ddr400> quite common, just look for a pdf guide to open the pc, like i did
[08:53] <ddr400> with images..
[08:54] <sam-_-> stiv2k, into the keyring i guess?
[08:54] <rww> q_a_z_steve: your torrent file is probably using 1000-based units, not 1024-based units. Xubuntu 10.04 ISO files fit on a CD.
[08:54] <soreau> illuminaris: You don't have gallium. Try installing libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental (and re-logging in)
[08:54] <stiv2k> sam-_-: yes the keyring thing bombards me after i log in
[08:54] <rww> q_a_z_steve: torrent client **
[08:55] <illuminaris> soreau so sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental ?? what will this do?
[08:55] <q_a_z_steve> transmission...
[08:55] <q_a_z_steve> really you think that's it? I'm on a mac... rww
[08:55] <sam-_-> stiv2k, seahorse    right click on "passwords: login" change password. then set a new blank password
[08:56] <soreau> illuminaris: Hopefully it will install the gallium driver which will allow for opengl 2.1
[08:56] <rww> q_a_z_steve: For obvious reasons, I know little about how Transmission works on a Mac, but I think that's the reason, yes.
[08:56] <illuminaris> soreau so that should fix the problem or there are more steps?
[08:57] <stiv2k> sam-_-: blank password? I dont want a blank password i want to manually log in instead of automatically be logged in
[08:57] <soreau> illusionz: First you want to get gallium working. If installing the experimental package doesn't work, you may need to install xorg-edgers repo first
[08:57] <q_a_z_steve> rww ok, well I suppose getting one and md5 summing against the other won't hurt anything. I know, torrents check themselves.
[08:57] <rww> q_a_z_steve: indeed
[08:58] <digifor> I am trying to put music on my ipod nano and I get "Error opening file /media/blabla.mp3: Read-only file system"
[08:59] <sam-_-> stiv2k, it's only a blank password for the keyring. doesn't affect your login password
[08:59] <q_a_z_steve> will report back... :)
[08:59] <tankie> mysho: sudo -s
[08:59] <brown_boar> hey what is that technology my computer needs to run ubuntu and windows side by side?
[08:59] <brown_boar> my computer is from 2010 i believe
[09:00] <stiv2k> sam-_-: is that gonna do what i want it to?
[09:00] <illuminaris> soreau i just installed what you told me to, restart and log back in?
[09:00] <brown_boar> parallel computing is ubuntu ready right?
[09:00] <zfe> brown_boar, just install both
[09:00] <sam-_-> stiv2k, not sure what you want :-)
[09:00] <zfe> and use GRUB
[09:00] <soreau> illuminaris: Yea just log out and back in then show the output of 'glxinfo|grep renderer' again
[09:00] <stiv2k> sam-_-: like i said, i want to manually log in, not be automatically logged in
[09:01] <stiv2k> sam-_-: in the installer i chose to log me in automatically and i learned that i dont like it
[09:01] <brown_boar> you don't understand. i want to flip between windows and ubuntu
[09:01] <brown_boar> my computer has good specs
[09:01] <rww> !vm | brown_boar
[09:02] <kerozene> !trolling
[09:02] <illuminaris> soreau ok I logged out and back in, here is the result : OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R300 (R350 4E48) 20090101 x86/MMX+/3DNow!+/SSE TCL DRI2
[09:02] <sam-_-> stiv2k, then yes. it will do what you want.
[09:02] <ddr400> brown_boar: simply try Virtualbox, easy and effective
[09:02] <brown_boar> i have used virtualbox. it is simply not going to support my host's video card
[09:02] <brown_boar> i won't ever run a good game in it
[09:02] <soreau> illuminaris: You still don't have gallium. Try this: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa && sudo apt-get update && && sudo apt-get upgrade
[09:03] <stiv2k> sam-_-: i dont understand how setting a blank keyring password is going to do that... not sure what youre talking about
[09:04] <rww> stiv2k: System -> Administration -> Login Somethingorother, change it to not be set to automatically log you in.
[09:04] <kerozene> brown_boar: so virtualise your non-gaming os
[09:04] <stiv2k> rww: its already set there it seems
[09:04] <stiv2k> i just looked there
[09:04] <brown_boar> i like to use my full hardware for both
[09:04] <kerozene> tricky business. HM
[09:04] <sam-_-> stiv2k, as i said it's not going to change your login password
[09:04] <rww> brown_boar: Your request is not possible.
[09:05] <sam-_-> stiv2k, this will stay the same
[09:05] <rww> stiv2k: and it's still autologging you in?
[09:06] <ddr400> brown_boar: just check with a live cd if your hardware is well supported in linux first
[09:06] <stiv2k> rww: it says Password: asked on login
[09:06] <stiv2k> rww: "dont ask for password on login" is not checked
[09:06] <brown_boar> ok you know that cube flipper
[09:07] <stiv2k> let me log out and log in and see
[09:07] <brown_boar> why not have ubuntu on this face and then i flip to windows.
[09:07] <brown_boar> that would be so nice
[09:07] <stiv2k> brown_boar: its not possible, without running in a vm
[09:07] <rww> stiv2k: Umm. Which desktop manager are you using? GNOME's? KDE's? Some other one?
[09:07] <illuminaris> soreau please stand by, still upgrading....
[09:08] <OceanEleven> can i create a shortcut for calculator in accessories ?
[09:08] <rww> because last time I looked at GDM's configuration window, it looked like http://i26.tinypic.com/112ad8i.jpg, which has different names.
[09:08] <sam-_-> brown_boar, use windows as your host if you don't need the graphics power in linux. then you will be fine
[09:08] <brown_boar> but windows isn't as stable
[09:08] <sam-_-> brown_boar, says who?
[09:08] <ddr400> brown_boar: so your pc has some problems then
[09:09] <brown_boar> i unplugged a webcam and got a blue screen
[09:09] <brown_boar> my pc has never had problems with ubuntu
[09:09] <soreau> illuminaris: If it installs a kernel (which is likely), reboot the machine after it's finished
[09:09] <Arch1mede> anyone here use virtualbox and ubuntu? I am looking for some directions to get the display to show the visual effects..is it even possible?
[09:09] <kerozene> it mustn't have been a microsoft webcam then
[09:09] <ddr400> try a different driver
[09:09] <sam-_-> brown_boar, not a windows problem. but a problem with the webcam driver
[09:09] <ddr400> quote that
[09:09] <brown_boar> ok i guess i will program the driver
[09:10] <OceanEleven> Hhow can i create shortcut for calculator in ubuntu desktop version ?
[09:10] <stiv2k> rww: i just rebooted, and yes, it logged me in automatically, and i had to enter my keyring password twice (annoying)
[09:10] <sam-_-> OceanEleven, keyboard shortcut?
[09:10] <stiv2k> rww: im using ubuntu netbook remix
[09:10] <OceanEleven> yes
[09:11] <rww> stiv2k: open a terminal and run "ps -A | grep dm". do you get output related to kdm, gdm, or something else?
[09:11] <OceanEleven> i mean i know about preference -> keyboard shortcuts but i dont command
[09:11] <stiv2k> rww: gdm
[09:11] <OceanEleven> sam-_-:  ?
[09:11] <sam-_-> OceanEleven, it's under desktop -> "launch calculator"
[09:11] <rww> odd. there goes my smart idea, then >.>
[09:11] <stiv2k> rww: damn
[09:12] <sam-_-> OceanEleven, the command would be gcalctool
[09:12] <stiv2k> is it smart or stupid to disable swap on my netbook?
[09:12] <OceanEleven> sam-_-: thankyou , found it :)
[09:12] <OceanEleven> thanks a lot
[09:13] <sam-_-> stiv2k, how about: neither
[09:15] <illuminaris> soreau ok i restarted this is the output now: OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on ATI R350
[09:16] <digifor> What is the best way to put music on an ipod nano 3g with Ubuntu 10.04
[09:16] <digifor> +?
[09:17] <ddr400> stiv2k: not recommended, it has too little RAM
[09:17] <ddr400> didnt understand you question
[09:18] <sam-_-> !best | digifor
[09:19] <digifor> How can I put music on an ipod nano 3g with Ubuntu 10.04?
[09:19] <bazhang> digifor, rhythmbox gtkpod
[09:19] <sam-_-> digifor, i think rythmbox is the default application
[09:20] <JoeMofknDot-> hi i just updated to 11.04 do i have to reinstall any of the applications i ws previously running
[09:21] <rww> JoeMofknDot-: upgrades don't generally remove applications, no.
[09:21] <bazhang> JoeMofknDot-, no. support in #ubuntu+1
[09:21] <sacarlson> JoeMofknDot-: if you had propriatary video sometimes that needs to be reinstalled
[09:21] <digifor> rhythmbox not working. I am getting an error "Error opening file "/media/blabla.mp3": Read-only file system"
[09:21] <illuminaris> soreau are you still here? it appears we were successful, is there another step required?
[09:21] <digifor> I am checking gtkpod
[09:22] <JoeMofknDot-> thank you
[09:22] <sam-_-> digifor, won't work there either
[09:22] <sam-_-> digifor, you have to mount the ipod with write support

[09:26] <sam-_-> digifor, not sure but ubuntu should be able to handle macos formated ipods
[09:26] <twager> digifor: Google jailbreak touchpod
[09:26] <rww> wouldn't #pidgin say "go grab the source and compile it"?
[09:27] <bazhang> rww, no they recommend a PPA
[09:27] <co3dm> i have deluge
[09:27] <rww> oh. somewhat more yay.
[09:27] <bazhang> co3dm, then get the iso.torrent and open with deluge

[09:35] <tankie> can you update to ubuntu 10.10 from within 10.04?
[09:35] <tankie> upgrade*
[09:35] <rww> !upgrade | tankie
[09:35] <tankie> tah
[09:37] <stalane> hi all. can anyone tell me specifically the performance difference from 8.04LTS and 10.04LTS ? Or point me at a reference link? Thanks
[09:37] <tankie> yeah, followed that info already. but it hasn't offered to upgrade me to 10.10
[09:37] <tankie> so presumably its just not offered yet?
[09:38] <rww> tankie: what's the output of "uname -a" in the terminal?
[09:38] <tankie> stalane: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/ubuntu-10.04-lucid-lynx,2634.html
[09:39] <tankie> Linux tnk 2.6.32-27-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP Wed Dec 1 23:52:12 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
[09:39] <Onryo> I was wondering if there is ANY code in Ubuntu such as LKMs that are not 100% FOSS. Thinking about blobs such as drivers for RAID cards etc.
[09:39] <rww> tankie: if you follow all the steps on the Maverick upgrade page, it should offer you an upgrade.
[09:39] <tankie> alright cheers
[09:40] <moto_> Help !! I am a newbie to ubuntu. Ubuntu not booting. The problem started after I uninstaled Xorg. How do i reinstall it?
[09:40] <Onryo> lol
[09:40] <rww> Onryo: depends on your definition of FOSS. Under some, there's non-free firmware in Ubuntu's kernel packages. If you enable and use the restricted or multiverse repositories, those both contain non-free software.
[09:40] <moto_> I cant acces the terminal too..
[09:41] <moto_> Only windows booting
[09:41] <tsimpson> Onryo: nothing in the stock kernel, but I'm not sure if anything is added by the kernel team. try asking in #ubuntu-kernel
[09:42] <Onryo> rww what I mean is ALL the code in the kernel and user land ie Metacity Open
[09:42] <rww> The stock Linux kernel contains non-Free firmware.
[09:42] <Onryo> tsimpson thx I have a talk with them
[09:42] <stalane> tankie, perfect thanks so much
[09:43] <rww> Onryo: As far as I know, a default install of Ubuntu Desktop that doesn't have the checkbox for installing non-free software clicked during install has no non-free software with the possible exception of aforementioned firmware.
[09:44] <mrchinosun> anybody know anything about wine?
[09:44] <coz_> mrchinosun,  I do not however  you can go to the #winehq   channel :)
[09:45] <kerozene> mrchinosun: I know some of the names, and even combinations
[09:46] <Onryo> rww that is really nice to hear. I am from the world of OpenBSD but quite like the convenience of a "normal" desktop environment at times found in Ubuntu. The GNU/Linux GPL 2.1 looks OK on paper but I was wondering if Ubuntu as a whole was under the same guidelines.
[09:46] <makulkar_> Hi all, I'm at airport connected to free wifi for 15 mins..so i think server wud hv catched my IP or something. can i try 15mins free wifi again n again by doin some trick?
[09:47] <Median> Hello!
[09:47] <llutz> makulkar_: you can try to change the MAC of your wifi-device
[09:48] <makulkar_> llutz, im not an expert with ubuntu yet .Please help!
[09:48] <llutz> makulkar_: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/change-your-network-card-mac-address-on-ubuntu/
[09:49] <Median> I seriously need help now, i've scoured the web for hours but haven't found a working solution. I want to able to log in through a remote desktop to connection into Ubuntu, without having the need to access the computer IRL. Tried with x11vnc but i seriously couldn't get it working.. I've checked guides, guides and more guides but all have failed due to some random reason. Is there any other
[09:49] <Median> way? Or would anyone like to guide me through the process of getting it running?
[09:51] <bullgard4> What should I do if my 'make' command does not terminate? I did http.//wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Acer_Hotkeys. Why does this command not terminate normally showing a normal prompt ?
[09:51] <sam-_-> Median, http://www.teamviewer.com/
[09:51] <makulkar_> llutz, great Thanks! will try that in next 4:55 mins :) and hopefuly can come online back!
[09:52] <Median> Sure it work sam-_-?
[09:52] <YouKay> In wxMaxima, whenever I install it on Ubuntu 10.10 and 10.04, this screen comes http://imagebin.org/132711 while it is supposed to be like http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f7/WxMaxima_0.7.1_screenshot.png and the whole app also malfunctions. Is there a problem with versions?
[09:52] <llutz> bullgard4: "does not terminate"? for how long, what does it show?
[09:52] <sam-_-> Median, why would it not? it even work behind a router. with nat
[09:52] <huang> hi
[09:53] <huang> every one
[09:53] <Median> sam-_-: Thanks then!
[09:53] <bullgard4> llutz: For more than 5 minutes. It shows only a blinking block cursor in the next line.
[09:54] <llutz> bullgard4: that usually means, it doesn't run at all
[09:54] <bullgard4> llutz: If it does not run, what should I do then?
[09:55] <Onryo> Is Intel going to release the source code for the Sandy Bridge GPU with its DRM that is incorporated in the architecture of its CPUs?
[09:55] <rww> !ot
[09:55] <llutz> bullgard4: some "weired" output of actions taking place
[09:55] <bazhang> Onryo, contact intel, that has nothing to do with ubuntu support
[09:56] <bullgard4> llutz: I do not know what "output of actions" might be.
[09:57] <llutz> bullgard4: compileractions, linker etc. like "gcc -c -Wall -O2 -DUT_DEBUG...."
[09:57] <Onryo> bazhang I have been reading their blogs. Intel in the past has always been a big help to the Linux community. I know they are working hard with getting Sandy Bridge to work for the community.
[09:57] <bazhang> Onryo, try #ubuntu-offtopic please
[09:58] <Oi3pRNnX> Hello, I think I have a DNS problem with my network in ubuntu 10.10, I've very simple setup [dial-up, PPTP, no router] I'm getting a good IP, and ppp0 is created, but I can't acsees any web pages or sending pings [network is unreachable] I've tried using those scrips here: http://stuff.pulkes.org/l2tp/

[09:59] <the_imperfection> good morning all
[10:01] <amro> hi, I'm trying to remove a package but apt insists on upgrading it. http://dpaste.com/319187/
[10:01] <bullgard4> llutz: I do not know how to put your answers to good use except for the first one.
[10:02] <the_imperfection> upgrade then remove?
[10:02] <amro> I'm removing because i don't want to upgrade
[10:02] <the_imperfection> i see

[10:04] <flazzid> guessing im s.o.l  for help on fixing this -1 channel
[10:04] <Dr_Willis> flazzid:  thers always the forums
[10:05] <bazhang> flazzid, ask an actual question
[10:05] <tjc_> hi to everyone!is there any program for music that i can merge songs so they can be played as one?
[10:05] <brontoeee> tjc_, audacity or use a playlist
[10:05] <Dr_Willis> tjc_:  you mnean take like 3 mp3 files and make them one very long single mp3 file?
[10:05] <bazhang> tjc_, audacious perhaps, or other ubuntustudio apps
[10:05] <bazhang> tjc_, err audacity
[10:06] <tjc_> yes thats what i mean
[10:06] <tjc_> audacity can i find it in ubuntu software?
[10:07] <brontoeee> tjc_, should be there
[10:07] <greppy> you can also just cat file1.mp3 file2.mp3 file3.mp3 > big.mp3
[10:07] <llutz> greppy: that resulting mp3 will be broken (even if most players will play it)
[10:08] <bazhang> tjc_, apt-cache search audacity to be certain
[10:08] <Onryo> Weird this box only has 2 Gig of RAM and yet it installed a PAE kernel? 2.6.35-24-generic-pae .... is that normal?
[10:09] <edified> tjc_ : to install audacity open up the terminal and type: sudo apt-get install Audacity
[10:09] <tjc_> i find it
[10:09] <tjc_> in the ubuntu software
[10:09] <ChrisDruif> Onryo: Even with normal 32-bit you can access 4GB <_<"
[10:09] <edified> tjc_  yes you can find it in the synaptic pakage manager and install it like that as well
[10:10] <tjc_> ok thank for your help and time
[10:10] <edified> tjc_ your welcome.
[10:10] <HowardTheDuck> hi
[10:10] <HowardTheDuck> what happesn if i get dual monitors and enable compiz cube.  will i have 2 cubes
[10:10] <edified> hi HowardTheDuck
[10:10] <Sheepherd> top left u got that mail symbol where u can choose to open empathy or evolution. but i dont use evolution but thunderbird. is it possible to replace that shortcut?
[10:11] <Sheepherd> top right i mean :)
[10:11] <amro> ok, new question, how do I purge all java from my system? everytime I try to remove one package, it forces me to install another
[10:12] <Onryo> ChrisDruif yeah that is what I thought. Would have thought that the Physical Address Extension kernel would not be needed for only 2 Gig RAM. But yeah it is a 32 bit CPU. Really no big deal but I was wondering. Could it be because I am running mdadm for my RAID?
[10:12] <llutz> amro: sounds like some other packages depend on java, try to identify them and remove them too
[10:12] <amro> llutz: I'm trying, but it seems as though they depend on some sort of pseudo package? how can I identify them?
[10:12] <llutz> amro: "aptitude why java"
[10:13] <amro> E: No package named "java" exists.
[10:13] <llutz> amro: or any other packagename for "java"
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> HowardTheDuck:  i find the cube feature of compiux looks nasty with multi moniutors. it has a lot of settings to tweak it however
[10:13] <edified> Sheepherd: you want the mail notification to detect thunderbird?
[10:14] <amro> llutz: that worked, thanks
[10:14] <Sheepherd> edified: yea i think so.
[10:14] <HowardTheDuck> Dr_Willis, so there actually are 2 cubes?
[10:14] <HowardTheDuck> interesting
[10:15] <Dr_Willis> HowardTheDuck:  i forget how iut worked.. badly i recall..  i find the cube pointless in the first lace
[10:15] <ChrisDruif> Onryo: It doesn't say so I believe....
[10:15] <HowardTheDuck> the cube is fun
[10:15] <edified> Sheepherd: Ok, give me a second, I'll try to see what I can find out about that
[10:16] <Sheepherd> edified: thanks alot
[10:16] <Onryo> ChrisDruif Its really no big deal. Maybe they are just thinking ahead if I want to drop in more RAM later.
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> HowardTheDuck:  it gets old fast.. and ads very little to what i 'need' an OS to do.
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> HowardTheDuck:  now the compiz ZOOM feature/.. thats handy
[10:16] <HowardTheDuck> Dr_Willis, do you use multiple desktops
[10:16] <nirazio> Is there a way to upgrade ubuntu 10.10 to the latest build of ubuntu 11?
[10:17] <cdbs> nirazio: Please be warned that 11.04 is unstable. Yes you can upgrade
[10:17] <HowardTheDuck> i like cube, ring switcher, window scaler
[10:17] <nirazio> cdbs: Alright how to upgrade?
[10:17] <cdbs> nirazio: come on #ubuntu+1 and I'll explain
[10:18] <ChrisDruif> Onryo: Maybe the installer had a bug in it, because Ubuntu installs pae with 32-bit with >=3GB (source: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingPAE )
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> HowardTheDuck:  with multi moniutor setup - i find i dont use the,m as much as i used to.
[10:18] <frustro> hi all, (i
[10:19] <frustro> 'm back))
[10:19] <Onryo> ChrisDruif I had to use the alt install since I am using a strip RAID so I am guessing you are right.
[10:19] <rautamiekka> Suddenly my Ubuntu Server's not able to update. The output of "sudo aptitude update" -> http://codepad.org/tkvXq66j <-. The output of "sudo aptitude update" after replacing the Ubuntu Central Archive's domain with the IP -> http://codepad.org/QkgRhY8E <-. My APT Sources -> http://codepad.org/yh6E9TAe <-. My Hosts -> http://codepad.org/yODoWbHp <-.
[10:20] <frustro> hp dv6000 lappy, never installed ubuntu on one before.  Where would I look for best practice for figuring out sleep/hibernation/lid close etc?
[10:20] <HowardTheDuck> Dr_Willis, yeah, I love the cube on the desktop I built for my gf, but I opted for 1 widescreen monitor rather than 2
[10:20] <edified> Sheeperd:  Ok are you ready?
[10:21] <edified> Sheepherd: Ok, are you ready?
[10:21] <HowardTheDuck> so I have her standard size monitor from her old box, and am tinking about getting a laptop for myself and doing dual monitor with it
[10:21] <Sheepherd> edified: yessir
[10:21] <edified> Sheepherd:  What you first want to do is head over to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/indicators-for-thunderb-223374/      and install the extension
[10:22] <edified> Sheepherd:  then In Thunderbird, go to Tools > Add-ons, click the Install button, locate/select the file you downloaded, and click OK.
[10:22] <edified> Sheepherd: You will note that the envelope indicator will be green when you get new mail,
[10:23] <rautamiekka> Why my Ubuntu 10.10 Server can't update anymore ? The output of "sudo aptitude update" -> http://codepad.org/tkvXq66j <-. The output of "sudo aptitude update" after replacing the Ubuntu Central Archive's domain with the IP -> http://codepad.org/QkgRhY8E <-. My APT Sources -> http://codepad.org/yh6E9TAe <-. My Hosts -> http://codepad.org/yODoWbHp <-.
[10:23] <SuspectZero> hey there, my friend is very inexperienced with linux and im trying to help him out. i want to show some things to him in console but im at my house. im currently running windows, is there a way i can help him out possibly over ssh?
[10:23] <rautamiekka> SuspectZero: PuTTY is the software.
[10:23] <SuspectZero> he doesnt have the ability to open ports either so i cant ssh in
[10:23] <SuspectZero> sorry forgot to mention that
[10:23] <edified> Sheepherd:  If you get an error msg complaining that libnotify-bin must be installed then type in:  sudo apt-get install libnotify-bin      in the terminal to install libnotify
[10:24] <rautamiekka> SuspectZero: A thing is to run Hamachi.
[10:24] <Sheepherd> edified: wow great it works!
[10:24] <SuspectZero> rautamiekka: ah the vpn program
[10:24] <SuspectZero> good idea
[10:24] <SuspectZero> thanks
[10:24] <edified> Sheepherd:  yay, im glad your problem is resolved
[10:24] <SuspectZero> we'll try that now
