[08:57] <rileyp> mythtv wont work unless client and server have same time.....
[08:58] <Fizix> robbit10, the webcam bit shouldn't be too bad as normally they are lo-res, but if you're editing high-res video, I know you would want some serious processing power and memory to compile it without fear of advancing in age too much.
[08:58] <MWTC_King>  iceroot!*@* added to ignore list.
[08:58] <bazhang> MWTC_King, take chat elsewhere please
[08:58] <MWTC_King> i just ignored him
[08:58] <ZykoticK9> darolu, 5.0.307.5
[08:58] <robbit10>  Fizix: Yep.
[08:58] <iceroot> bazhang: thx
[08:58] <nagchampa> Dr_Willis: is there some way with hal to tell it that my monitor has a particular dpi
[08:58] <ZykoticK9> darolu, do you happen to use iGoogle at all?
[08:58] <nagchampa> so when x starts it sees the right one?
[08:58] <nagchampa> where is the default 96dpi set?
[08:58] <Dr_Willis> nagchampa:  no idea. ive never had to tweak that. There proberly is
[08:59] <darolu> Zykotick9: I'm running 5.0.323.0 (38568) Ubuntu; maybe if you clicked the igoogle link once (if you were logged in) it sets that way anywhere
[08:59] <Fizix> robbit10, if you can afford it, I'd say get the cheapest Dell with a Intel Core i3 and load up on the optional RAM.
[08:59] <riderel> i have installed oidentd on my ubuntu 9.10 and when i connect to irc i still got the *No ident response* ... ? can anybody give me some hints to fix this ?
[08:59] <darolu> Zykotick9: I used it for a while ~2 weeks, can be useful
[08:59] <robbit10> Fizix: It has to be near 300 euros (not 500, sorry, i just asked my dad for the budget limit)
[08:59] <ZykoticK9> darolu, i'm guessing this is a cookie or something, as I have tried logging out of iGoogle with no change...
[09:00] <rileyp> iceroot can you help  time on clients seem to be gmt not melb aus
[09:00] <rileyp> yet timezone is set
[09:00] <Dr_Willis> riderel:  forward proper ports on your router. WHy are you bothjerint with an identd server anyway?
[09:00] <ZykoticK9> darolu, ironically i just tried with Google Chrome and it does NOT happen
[09:00] <Fizix> Anyone proficient at setting up a remote desktop server? I can connect through the server and VNC, but I lose my internet availability (still connected, mobile broadband). It returns once I disconnect the ethernet connection I use for VNC.
[09:01] <riderel> I get glined if i dont have identd started
[09:01] <darolu> ZykoticK9: I hope they are not planning to force us to use it, after buzz in my gmail I expect anything from them.
[09:01] <Dr_Willis> riderel:  glined by who?
[09:01] <band_of_koala> Can anyone help me pick a router?
[09:01] <darolu> Ironic indeed.
[09:01] <bazhang> band_of_koala, try ##hardware
[09:01] <band_of_koala> thanks

[09:04] <rileyp> I need hlp setting ntp correctly on mythbuntu diskless clients
[09:04] <nagchampa> anyone here know about the xorg setup and defaults? i'm trying to figure out how to get xorg to read the dpi of the screen properly, or force it to what it shoudl be, but only for the current monitor
[09:04] <Dr_Willis> !fixres
[09:05] <iceroot> rileyp: sorry dont know if you say that the timezone is set correctly
[09:05] <rileyp> ok thanks
[09:06] <Jedcat> Hi^ lolz!
[09:06] <Dr_Willis> there is the #mythbuntu channel
[09:06] <nagchampa> Dr_Willis: seeing as it's not a resolution problem, but a calculated screen size problem, i don't think that helps really
[09:06] <rileyp> yeah no one answers there....
[09:06] <Dr_Willis> nagchampa:  no idea untill  You look. It mioght give links to other pages/fix;s
[09:07] <rileyp> Illl try
[09:07] <rileyp> thanks
[09:07] <Jedcat> it may be offtop... Where can i chat about Crysis game on Ubuntu?)
[09:07] <nagchampa> nope
[09:07] <darolu> Jedcat: #Ubuntu-offtopic would be my guess.
[09:07] <Dr_Willis> Jedcat:  running it in wine? thats amazing it even works
[09:07] <dragon> I'm setting up Network Audio System. I installed the server and ran it, but the clients cannot connect to it. Ideas?
[09:08] <Jedcat> it works))
[09:08] <Jedcat> but it BUGs =/
[09:08] <darolu> Jedcat: are you serious? what kind of hardware do you have? that game is insane
[09:08] <denis123> What's an easy way for me to upgrade my kernel to 2.6.32 in Karmic. Is there a PPA?
[09:08] <Jedcat> i am serious)
[09:09] <Jedcat> i'v got an gamer's pc and Ubuntu on it %)
[09:09] <Jedcat> am i mad?)

[09:10] <Jedcat> thenks)
[09:10] <anita> alguien q able español??
[09:10] <Jedcat> йа рашн))
[09:10] <nagchampa> this is frustrating
[09:10] <darolu> anita: hola yo hablo, pero aquí se habla inglés; vamos a #ubuntu-es
[09:10] <psycho_oreos> !es | anita
[09:11] <nagchampa> the xorg default is 75dpi, somewhere it's being set to 96dpi but i can't find where, and it's ignoring my actual screen's dpi
[09:11] <anita> aaaam
[09:11] <anita> esq no tengo ni dea de ingles
[09:11] <nagchampa> first, having a default dpi for lcd screens is a stupid idea
[09:11] <psycho_oreos> !ru | Jedcat
[09:11] <darolu> anita: escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) ahí te alcanzo
[09:11] <nagchampa> it shoudl calculate it from the screen size
[09:12] <nagchampa> so if xorg isn't falling back to its defautl of 75dpi
[09:12] <nagchampa> ubuntu must have it set somewhere
[09:12] <Jedcat> ыыыы
[09:13] <Jedcat> народ, шо за фигня етот вин?)
[09:14] <anita> como era??
[09:14] <denis123> how can I upgrade my kernel to 2.6.32 on Ubuntu Karmic?
[09:14] <anita> esq no me aparece la pagina
[09:15] <denis123> I found: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v<IP_ADDRESS>/ now how can i install em. Just download and run all the i386 ones?
[09:15] <Jedcat> sudo apt-get install kernel xD
[09:15] <anita> alguien españool
[09:16] <darolu> anita: en realidad es simple... escribe /join #ubuntu-es y pulsas enter.
[09:16] <Dr_Willis> denis123:  enable the ppa repository and use teh package manager
[09:16] <denis123> Dr_Willis which ppa though? I can't find it
[09:16] <anita> eeooooo
[09:17] <anita> i dont understand
[09:17] <Dr_Willis> denis123:  the url you gave was a PPA
[09:17] <Dr_Willis> search teh PPAs site perhaps
[09:17] <nagchampa> from my Xorg log:
[09:17] <nagchampa> Option   "UseEdidDpi" "false"
[09:17] <nagchampa> woops

[09:27] <Seveas> Guest15247, google for 'gdm2 themes' and remember that gdm2 is a complete rewrite, gdm1 themes will not work

[09:30] <Guest66911> haha
[09:30] <darolu> (me trying to be humorous)
[09:30] <Guest66911> Seaveas
[09:30] <Guest66911> beat me 2 it
[09:30] <kickar> Seveas,  thanks
[09:30] <Seveas> darolu, you fail :P
[09:30] <Guest66911> haha
[09:30] <Guest66911> thanks
[09:31] <dam93> hi
[09:31] <Guest66911> hey
[09:31] <Seveas> hello dam93, what can we do to you today?
[09:31] <Fizix> It's no longer working--neither in 'Cheese' or any web-based program--and I'd like to somehow vary it off and on (something equivalent to Device Manager in Windows where I would disable and re-enable a peripheral) so I don't have to restart my netbook.
[09:31] <dam93> Don't worry
[09:31] <anita> alguien españool
[09:31] <darolu> funny ubottu sent me private telling me she doesn't know what kthxbye is
[09:31] <Seveas> !es | anita
[09:31] <Guest66911> ok Fizix go to system user and groups
[09:31] <dam93> where do you come from ??
[09:32] <Seveas> Fizix, that would be equivalent to modprobe -r drivername_here; modprobe drivername_here
[09:32] <Guest66911> and go to it and make sure u check off use video devices
[09:32] <Guest66911> tell me how u get on
[09:32] <anita> esq no me aparecee
[09:32] <darolu> anita: por cuarta ocasión, es sencillo, escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (aquí en el irc chat) y presiona enter; yo te alcanzo
[09:32] <Seveas> drivername_here would be something with v4l, check the output of lsmod
[09:32]  * Condoulo is having an issue where I am not getting any sound from Amarok
[09:32] <anita> dice q  no existe!!
[09:33] <darolu> lo escribes sin comillas? /join #ubuntu-es
[09:36] <Rotwang> HI!
[09:36] <meway> the tirminal at the bottom of my screen I minimized dissapeard It is still runing how do I make it visible with the other window that was there?
[09:36] <meway> and nvm
[09:36] <TCD> Hey. Can anybody either help me, or direct me to a decent tutorial on how to install/boot Ubuntu onto a USB stick? I have an .iso file from the ubuntu website, and googling comes up with a load of different things.
[09:36] <meway> got it
[09:36] <Rotwang> i've got problem with gnome-screensaver and xscreensaver, after locking the screen and trying to unlock it, both screensavers says the password is wrong!
[09:37] <Rotwang> both have support for pam so i assumed that teh problem is with pam
[09:37] <Seveas> !install
[09:37] <meway> TCD actually its kind of easy if you already have ubuntu
[09:37] <Seveas> TCD, see ubotu above
[09:37] <root51> hello guys
[09:37] <Rotwang> it is older release of ubuntu like 9.* or eveb 8.*
[09:37] <Rotwang> even*
[09:37] <TCD> meway: I'm running off a Windows machine atm.
[09:37] <kickar> Seveas,  the Numlock numers and the F keys are not working how do i fix that ?
[09:37] <Lusule> hi there :) does anyone know why, when I boot up, I don't have sound until I do sudo /sbin/alsa force-reload ?
[09:37] <root51> how make background in grub using menu
[09:37] <Satoru-san> ooo there is an ubuntu channel
[09:37] <root51> any idea
[09:37] <Seveas> Satoru-san, indeed :)
[09:38] <root51> i want my menu to make backgound
[09:38] <dot> when I watch a youtube video on my ubuntu 9.10 the audio can suddenly just disappear. How can I fix such bug?
[09:38] <TCD> This looks good. Thanks. :D
[09:38] <Seveas> !grub
[09:38] <root51> im using karmic
[09:38] <Seveas> !grub2
[09:38] <meway> TCD, oh I see sorry I am a nube at tht
[09:38] <Seveas> root51, see what ubotu just said
[09:38] <Fizix> Guest66911, I went to User & Groups, modified what the user is allowed to do (video) off and on to no avail. Seveas, where would I find the name of this video driver? I'm afraid I'm not too proficient in command-line although I'd very much like to be.
[09:38] <Satoru-san> I would help here, but I spend all my time helping on gentoo forums and ubuntuforums, and gentoo IRC >_<
[09:39] <Seveas> Fizix, in the commandline, type this: lsmod | grep v4l
[09:39] <Seveas> Fizix, in the output, the first item is a drivername. run this: modprobe -r drivername_here; modprobe drivername_here
[09:39] <Seveas> do that for everything with v4l in it
[09:39] <Seveas> that will reload the v4l (= video4linux = webcam) drivers
[09:40] <cesc> Hello. I want to post the list of things one has to do after installing Ubuntu 9.10 on an ASUS EEE 1101 HA so that nobody else needs to waste 2 days. What section of Ubuntuforums is the right place to post such info?
[09:40] <TCD> Hmm. Just looking at the wiki, is unetbootin any good?
[09:41] <Dr_Willis> TCD:  it works very well
[09:41] <darolu> cesc: General help or Installation sounds logical to me.
[09:41] <Seveas> cesc, a wikipage would be nicer, that way people who don't use forums can find it too :)
[09:41]  * TCD thanks everyone and runs off to find his USB stick
[09:41] <Condoulo> Is there any reason as to why I am not getting any audio from Amarok?
[09:42] <Fizix> Seveas, the only one that came up was: v4l1_compat            14496  2 uvcvideo,videodev | so modprob -r v4l1_compat and so forth?
[09:42] <Seveas> Condoulo, probably you have a terrible taste in music and amarok shields you from yourself ;)
[09:42] <Lusule> hi there :) does anyone know why, when I boot up, I don't have sound until I do sudo /sbin/alsa force-reload ?
[09:42] <cesc> darolu, Seveas: I have a google page. Would it make sense to post the info there and then post a link in the Ubuntu forums? I've never posted anything and I'm not sure what the correct procedure is so that nobody gets pissed off :)
[09:42] <Seveas> Fizix, slightly more complicated in this case
[09:42] <Viper1432> lmao Seveas , its not THAT good a player.  heh heh
[09:42] <Condoulo> >.<
[09:43] <Seveas> Fizix, modprobe -r uvcvideo videodev v4l1_compat; then modprobe them all again
[09:43] <darolu> cesc: I would post the tutorial directly in the forums, but a link is all right too; now what Seveas said is true, a wikipage would be really neat.
[09:44] <cesc> darolu, Seveas: ah, you mean the ubuntu wiki!  sure, that's the reasonable place. Thx!
[09:44] <ardchoille> I agree with Seveas , and the wiki syntax is easy to learn
[09:44] <darolu> cesc: don't worry if you post it in the wrong section; it is something useful and won't get deleted, staff can move it if it is in the wrong place -that's the worst that can happen

[09:45] <Chinta> Hi everyone! Can anyone suggest this newbie a programme to make free phone calls to fix telephones via IP protocol? (kind of like voip in windows).
[09:45] <cesc> dare, alles klar =) Thanks for the info.  *posting*
[09:45] <Seveas> Chinta, ekiga, skype
[09:45] <Seveas> ekiga does sip, skype does skype protocol.
[09:45] <Chinta> The stress being in free.
[09:46] <Fizix> Seveas, I get this: FATAL: Module uvcvideo is in use. | Anyway to force it off?
[09:46] <root51> grafical menu in grub2
[09:47] <root51> any idea how configure graphical menu in grub
[09:47] <Chinta> Can ekiga call to fixed telephones for free?
[09:47] <Seveas> Chinta, google for TANSTAAFL
[09:48] <Chinta> Tanstaafl, OK. Thanks Seveas.
[09:48] <Viper1432> that moon was a very hard mistress.
[09:48] <Seveas> Fizix, yeah. Take the easy route and reboot :)
[09:48] <Xaero252> So, I'm here regarding a security issue, are there any KNOWN current security holes in 9.10 that would allow a user to remotely control my machine?
[09:49] <Seveas> Xaero252, no. If they were known, they'd be fixed already :)
[09:49]  * Chinta grins
[09:49] <darolu> lol
[09:49] <Seveas> if you found one, please contact<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[09:49] <Fizix> Seveas, lol, that's what I thought. Thanks for teaching me about this modprob deal; I'm sure it'll come in handy not before too long what with how much I like to tinker.
[09:49] <Xaero252> Interesting, seveas: are you sure because I just had someone remotely controlling my desktop and rdesktop is completely disabled, not even installed
[09:50] <Xaero252> just now, I banned their entire IP range etc
[09:50] <Chinta> Well, you are mistaken, there IS such a free lunch. VoIP is a software that can be run on Windows which allows you to call to fixed net for free.
[09:50] <Seveas> Xaero252, intriguing. Could you pastebin the output of: sudo netstat -ltnup
[09:50] <Xaero252> they weren't able to do anything since I'm not logged in as superuser.
[09:51] <Seveas> they could still destroy your files, which is worse than killing /usr/bin imho
[09:51] <Chinta> Anyway, thanks for your help.

[09:52] <lv_> hi guys, ive cloned a virtualbox image of jaunty-jackolope successfully to my linode box, on boottime i'm getting this udev error:  udevd[940]: GOTO 'persistent_net_generator_end' has no matching label in: '/etc/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules' -- any clues?
[09:53] <Seveas> also, you're behind nat, so I find it really weird that someone from the internet was able to reach your pc at all
[09:53] <Xaero252> ^
[09:53] <Xaero252> however my router is a POS
[09:54] <root51> i figured out right now
[09:54] <Seveas> I guessed as much, otherwise you wouldn't be running dnsmasq locally :)
[09:54] <Xaero252> I'll be logging my internet traffic for the next few days, storing packets etc to see if I find anything fishy

[09:57] <Seveas> but will have some false positives
[09:57] <ZiG|ZaG> Xaero252 the issue has been resolved, i was concerned with some errors when restarting apache server
[09:57] <Lusule> hi there :) can anyone shed any light on why sound won't work on startup until I do sudo /sbin/alsa force-reload ?
[09:57] <Xaero252> Seveas: could I potentially lose control over USB peripherals and have sporatic input due to low voltage on the USB?
[09:57] <Seveas> also, the rule needs to be reapplied after reboot :)
[09:57] <Seveas> Xaero252, doesn't sound unreasonable
[09:58] <Xaero252> Seveas: know where I might find voltage probes for usb in /sys?
[09:58] <Seveas> no
[09:59] <Xaero252> Seveas: cool, thanks I'll poke around, I'm doing a DD of two USB hard disks on a laptop now and that may be the case, although completely loss of control of both keyboard and mouse as well as somewhat reasonable and accurate mouseclicks seems too good for it to be sporratic behavior
[09:59] <ZiG|ZaG> Xaero252 i'm not sure where you got that from lol
[09:59] <Xaero252> ZiG|ZaG: Rumormill about ZiGZaG Being KaW/Smiley from the In The Groove franchise ;)
[09:59] <ZiG|ZaG> ah
[10:00] <Xaero252> Fairly certain they are indeed one and the same due to Incognito/Indulgence/Pandemonium (ZigZag songs) being on KaW's website ;)
[10:01] <ZiG|ZaG> unaware of the artist, his works do sound familiar
[10:01] <ZiG|ZaG> also the name
[10:02] <ZiG|ZaG> not me :p
[10:02] <Xaero252> :D
[10:03] <Xaero252> Also, anybody know what I could do about getting a project added to the repositories?
[10:03] <ardchoille> Xaero252: iirc, you'd need to contact MOTU, try #ubuntu-motu
[10:03] <Seveas> !motu | Xaero252
[10:03] <Xaero252> ardchoille: thanks, I'll check it out
[10:04] <ardchoille> Xaero252: also see what ubottu just posted
[10:04] <alabd> hello ,If we want write 2 lines about what a user should has done  to use Gnu/Linux before first distributions , what can we write (it's required for a book that humble will write)?
[10:05] <Xaero252> alabd: not sure what your asking, like experience you should have before diving into the gnu/linux world?
[10:08] <Dr_Willis> learn how to learn, and learn that thers always more to learn :)
[10:08] <alabd> Xaero252: no , humble mean  before first distributions gnu/linux at 1991
[10:09] <DaZ> learn not to lick metal poles during winter.
[10:09] <Seveas> :)
[10:10] <Xaero252> Seveas: what could be causing this, I have my dd process being monitored by a watch -t 10 sudo pkill -USR1 ^dd$  init: rsyslog-kmsg main process (30147) killed by USR1 signal
[10:11] <badbandit> hey if I upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10
[10:11] <badbandit> could I run into problems?
[10:11] <Seveas> Xaero252, pkill dd will kill a random dd. rsyslog-kmsh uses a dd to log kernel messgaes, you just killed it.
[10:12] <badbandit> aka should i backup my whole laptop
[10:12] <Xaero252> Seveas: but -USR1 to DD means "report progress and continue" iirc?
[10:12] <alabd> Xaero252: f we want write 2 lines about what a user should has done  to use Gnu/Linux before first distributions of gnu/linux at 1991 (first days) , what can we write (it's required for a book that humble will write)? for example he should knew about libs and proper gnu executables to boot and run OS himself and what other did he require to know
[10:12] <soreau> badbandit: There are always a potential for unforeseen circumstances and backups are never a bad idea
[10:13] <Blindsite> hello can someone help me get ubuntu to detect my sansa fuze mp3 player
[10:13] <Seveas> Xaero252, that's not documented behavior
[10:13] <Xaero252> alabd: Oh jesus, he would have been required to know a lot before distributions came about...
[10:13] <Seveas> alabd, this channel is for ubuntu support, please take offtopic talk elsewhere
[10:13] <ardchoille> Blindsite: the only way I have been able to do that is use rythmbox to tranfer the mp3 files
[10:13] <Bacta> Hai!
[10:13] <Bacta> Bacta's the name, trollin's the game!
[10:13] <Seveas> Xaero252, scratch that, it is....
[10:13] <Blindsite> RB doesn't even see it
[10:14] <Blindsite> how'd you get RB to detect it
[10:14] <Blindsite> I've got it on MSC mode but its stll not showing up
[10:14] <ardchoille> Blindsite: open rb, I'll walk you trhough the plugins
[10:14] <Blindsite> k
[10:14] <Blindsite> gimme a sec
[10:15] <Xaero252> Seveas: should I just not use USR1 to monitor my other dd process? I know it can be done with pv but pv is being really buggy atm with 9.10 (its not displaying progress unless I use ^C to break the command mid execution)
[10:15] <Blindsite> kay
[10:15] <Blindsite> RB is open and the sansa is plugged in
[10:15] <ardchoille> Blindsite: unplug your fuze, then go to rb and click Edit > Plugins
[10:15] <Blindsite> now what
[10:15] <Blindsite> oh ok
[10:15] <Seveas> Xaero252, The dd you killed was started from initramfs. It is thus a busbox dd which does not understand USR1
[10:16] <Blindsite> kay I'm at the plugins menu
[10:16] <ardchoille> Blindsite: make sure both plugins for "portable players" are checked and close the plugins window
[10:16] <Seveas> Xaero252, yes you can monitor your dd, but use kill -USR <pid here> to make sure you have the correct dd in your sights
[10:17] <Xaero252> Seveas: Ah, that makes entirely too much sense, I'll just use dd if=* of=* & pid=$! && kill -USR1 $pid then from now on :D
[10:17] <Blindsite> kay
[10:17] <ardchoille> Blindsite: now plug in your fuze player and it should be recognized in the left pane of rb, click on it and you should be able to drag and drop mp3's in there now
[10:17] <Seveas> Xaero252, :)
[10:19] <Blindsite> nope its not showig up
[10:19] <ardchoille> Blindsite: have you set your fuze player to the required mode? in Settings on the fuze player there is a certain mode you need to use
[10:19] <ardchoille> Blindsite: I think it's MTC
[10:20] <Guest53743> hey guys. im having some troubles pasting into the /usr/share/gmd/themes folder i tried this command and no luck. sudo cp brit-waves /usr/share/gdm/themes/brit-waves
[10:20] <ardchoille> I don't have my fuze with me
[10:20] <ardchoille> Guest53743: is brit-waves a folder?
[10:21] <Guest53743> yes it is
[10:21] <Blindsite> i've tried with auto, MTC and MSC
[10:21] <Blindsite> still not showing up
[10:21] <ardchoille> Guest53743 sudo cp -r brit-waves /usr/share/gdm/themes
[10:21] <badbandit> hey
[10:21] <The_ManU_212> hi
[10:21] <ardchoille> Blindsite: hmm.. worked great here
[10:21] <Xaero252> seveas: any reason rsyslogd would be eating 100% of 1 core?
[10:22] <Blindsite> what mode do you have yours on?
[10:22] <Seveas> Xaero252, I think because you just killed it's dd and now it's confused
[10:22] <The_ManU_212> i have a netbook, the batterie is empty after 2 hours and the fan turns the whole time after 25 minutes if the netbook was cold, otherwise it spins the whole time
[10:22] <The_ManU_212> can u help me?
[10:22] <ardchoille> Blindsite: perhaps the menu item Music > Scan removable media  ?
[10:22] <Xaero252> seveas: any downside if I kill it?
[10:22] <ardchoille> Blindsite:  I don't have my fuze with me
[10:22] <Seveas> Xaero252, that or the iptables line I gave you is somehow broken in your situation and it is logging an awful lot :)
[10:22] <The_ManU_212> i have powertop installed biut it doesnt help
[10:22] <Seveas> Xaero252, you'll lose logging
[10:23] <Xaero252> seveas: any way to check that iptables line?
[10:23] <Guest53743> lol how embarrassing
[10:23] <Lantizia> Is anyone familiar with the Dell Recovery Media Builder (for 9.10 and up?)
[10:23] <Seveas> ls -lah /var/log/messages
[10:23] <Guest53743> i forgot to check for cp switches
[10:23] <Seveas> if that's huge, oops!
[10:23] <Guest53743> thanks for the help
[10:23] <ardchoille> Guest53743 :)
[10:24] <Blindsite> nope
[10:24] <Blindsite> scanned on both modes
[10:24] <ardchoille> Blindsite: Sorry, that works here, I've no more advice :(
[10:24] <Xaero252> seveas: nothing over .5mb
[10:25] <Seveas> that's fine then
[10:25] <Blindsite> i was reading on one of the forums about having to force load it or something
[10:25] <Seveas> you might need to reboot
[10:25] <Seveas> not sure what effects killing that dd process has
[10:25] <Xaero252> Seveas: I'd really not like to do that In the middle of my DD lawl :D
[10:26] <Seveas> you've at least lost all kernel logging now, which to me is already a good reason to reboot :)
[10:26] <ardchoille> Blindsite: on a positive note, if you put an sd card in the fuze, it should show up as a mass storage device
[10:26] <Xaero252> Seveas: it kept trying to restart it, until I stopped my watch
[10:26] <Seveas> heh, ok. Kill syslog and reboot when dd is done :)
[10:26] <Xaero252> at which point it restarted
[10:27] <Lantizia> Has anyone used the Dell Recovery Builder tool? for Ubuntu 9.10 and up?
[10:28] <Guest24130> terminal command to set timezone please
[10:28] <Lantizia> dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
[10:29] <sildur> bonjour
[10:29] <Blindsite> ardchoille:  does your fuze show up on your computer or just in RB?
[10:29] <ardchoille> Blindsite: it shows up in nautilus if I have an sd card in it, otherwise I need to use rb
[10:30] <Guest24130> lantizia thanks bro
[10:30] <Lantizia> np
[10:30] <Blindsite> ah
[10:30] <migis> hello
[10:30] <ardchoille> Blindsite: I'll admit, the fuze is the first Sanza mp3 player I've this much trouble with
[10:30] <migis> can anyone tell me please where i can find xubuntu's loading file?
[10:31] <ardchoille> migis: ask in #xubuntu
[10:31] <Blindsite> :( guess it was just a bad call then.
[10:31] <Blindsite> tell me
[10:31] <Blindsite> does the ipod work?
[10:31] <migis> there is no one there. then please tell me where i can find ubuntu's loading file.
[10:31] <ardchoille> Blindsite: never had one so don't know
[10:31] <Blindsite> ah
[10:32] <wgrant> migis: What are you talking about?
[10:32] <wgrant> What do you mean by "loading file
[10:32] <wgrant> "?
[10:32] <migis> i have installed firmware which my laptop does not support and now on every loading it says that it does not exist, etc. how can i remove that line, so it won't require it.
[10:32] <ardchoille> Blindsite: I do remember seeing other get iPod help here so you may keep asking and see if someone canhelp
[10:32] <Blindsite> yeah well mom is interested in my fuze and my birthday is coming up
[10:32] <Blindsite> so she might just get me an Ipod
[10:33] <ardchoille> Blindsite: oh, you're in a very good position :)
[10:33] <ardchoille> Blindsite: I do know there is an app called gtkpod in the repos
[10:33] <migis> it was a firmware for wireless
[10:33] <ardchoille> !info gtkpod | Blindsite
[10:33] <Xaero252> Blindsite: the newest Ipods have compatibility issues due to encryption on GNU/Linux, although some people have found workarounds
[10:34] <ardchoille> Xaero252: Ah, good to know, thanks
[10:34] <tom> hi, i used "pmap" to measure memory usage of processes on ubuntu and on debian and found out that a process running on ubuntu uses a lot more memory, here's an example with /bin/bash: http://dpaste.com/158712/ now is there a way to reduce the usage on ubuntu, also what are the lines with "-----" which are not present on the debian box?
[10:34] <Blindsite> as much as I'm pissed at apple about DRM they do generally make good products.
[10:34] <Blindsite> awww i wanted a nano with a camera
[10:34] <Dr_Willis> good straightjackets are still straightjackets :)
[10:35] <Blindsite> is there a list of what hardware works and what doesn't
[10:35] <Blindsite> so I don't end up wasting money again
[10:35] <migis> hello, anyone?
[10:35] <Blindsite> hello migis
[10:37] <alexxio> hi
[10:37] <Blindsite> hi
[10:37] <alexxio> i installed ubuntu on my laptop, the it started
[10:37] <alexxio> *then
[10:37] <alexxio> but after that it downloaed some proprietary driver and now it doesnt boot
[10:38] <Blindsite> oh and i have another completely dif problem.   I installed Ubuntu on my desktop
[10:38] <alexxio> just after the grub screen, after a while, i get a black screen, then i can reboot with ctrl alt canc
[10:38] <Blindsite> but it doesn't see my router via my ethernet cord
[10:38] <TCD> Hey everyone. I got ubuntu running, it's awesome.
[10:38] <edeca> Blindsite: What do you mean "doesn't see"
[10:39] <Blindsite> it doesn't detect the router, and subsequent internet connection
[10:39] <alexxio> blindsite, do you know what ip you have now?
[10:39] <Blindsite> I'm on DHCP
[10:39] <Blindsite> i know the ip of the router but thats about it
[10:39] <edeca> Blindsite: Check the output of ifconfig (or ip addr) and the contents of /etc/networking/interfaces
[10:40] <edeca> Er, /etc/network/interfaces
[10:40] <alexxio> blindsite: open a terminal and copy/paste your sudo ifconfig -a
[10:41] <alexxio> now, for my problem, i told kernel to run into runlevel 3 putting 3 on the grub command line, but the error is the same, black screen, can you please tell me what can i do?
[10:41] <Blindsite> kay  I've been doing some reinstalls on that desktop so just hold on.   You probably don't want to.
[10:43] <wgrant> alexxio: ^^
[10:43] <wgrant> Blindsite: Sorry, misread.
[10:43] <alexxio> ;)
[10:43] <Blindsite> ok while the desktop is booting up
[10:43] <Rotwang> im looking for xscreensaver without pam support
[10:43] <Rotwang> so maybe someone has a package?
[10:44] <WierdAAR> Hello, is there an easy way to get all the dependencies for a package other then ./configure and then find what's missing? (That is for packages not in synaptic)
[10:44] <alexxio> wgrant: i get a black screen on booting, i don't know what else to do , i don't want to install again
[10:44] <Blindsite> i'd just like to comment: whenever I use -help with most of the terminal commands half the time it just lists them but doesn't explain their various functions
[10:44] <wgrant> alexxio: Adding 'text' to the kernel commandline will inhibit X from starting.
[10:45] <wgrant> alexxio: If that still isn't enough, add 'single' and you will be dumped into a root shell early on in the boot.
[10:45] <LinuxPhreak> I'm making an Ubuntu remix with remastersys but I can't find the Ubiquity icon to change it. Can someone tell the directory?
[10:45] <alexxio> wgrant: mmmh..thanks ..
[10:46] <alexxio> wgrant: but after i get on a shell, is there a way to see which drivers it installed (maybe in /var/log/messages?) and how to uninstall them?
[10:46] <wgrant> alexxio: What sort of driver?
[10:47] <alexxio> actually i remember 3 proprietary driver it was installing, one of which is about ati drivers
[10:48] <frodoleggins> alexxio: nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf and replace, in device section, ati with vesa
[10:48] <wgrant> frodoleggins: By 'ati' you mean 'fglrx'?
[10:48] <Blindsite> holy shit.... I just booted up ubuntu and somehow its detected my router this time
[10:48] <Blindsite> i have no idea how
[10:48] <frodoleggins> alexxio: by ati, I mean ati
[10:48] <wgrant> 'ati' is not proprietary.
[10:48] <Blindsite> but i've got internet...
[10:49] <WierdAAR> Hello, is there an easy way to get all the dependencies for a package other then ./configure and then find what's missing? (That is for packages not in synaptic)
[10:49] <Blindsite> imma install ubuntu on the harddrive there and see if it sticks
[10:49] <erUSUL> WierdAAR: sudo apt-get build-dep package
[10:49] <frodoleggins> wgrant: the name of driver used, I have not an ati, but he have to set driver to vesa, so he can run into X
[10:49] <erUSUL> WierdAAR: you have to enable src sources in System>Admin...>Software Sources
[10:49] <Lantizia> erUSUL, he said it wasn't in synaptic
[10:50] <frodoleggins> and then try to fix all not from shell
[10:50] <erUSUL> Lantizia: right you are  ;)
[10:50] <wgrant> frodoleggins: Yes, but he said he installed the proprietary ATI driver, which is 'fglrx', not 'ati'.
[10:50] <marienz> WierdAAR: if it's not packaged yet you'll have to dig into the source package. If you are packaging I'm a fan of sbuild-lvm and the like, which build in a clean chroot (which means any deps you missed cause the build to fail)
[10:50] <Lantizia> WierdAAR, if it's not in synaptic... no afraid not - hopefully the developer will list dev packages needd
[10:50] <LinuxPhreak> does anyone know where the Ubuiquity Icon is stored. I checked /usr/share/icons/
[10:50] <frodoleggins> ok, tell him to replace fglrx to vesa
[10:51] <LinuxPhreak> but I don't know what directory inside ofr their it is
[10:51] <TCD> Hey. Does anyone know of any decent material online about how to get started with the commands on Linux/Ubuntu? I have no idea what they do, but they look interesting. If you get what I mean.
[10:52] <erUSUL> !cli | TCD
[10:52] <TCD> Thanks.
[10:52] <WierdAAR> Lantizia, Ok, Well then I just have to find them manually
[10:52] <LinuxPhreak> TCD: I know orrielly books are great but no online info
[10:52] <TCD> Okay. I don't think I can really afford a book on it. :( Shame.
[10:53] <LinuxPhreak> TCD: I would google Ubuntu commands
[10:53] <Seveas> TCD, the best one is 'man' :)
[10:53] <wgrant> TCD: I would use the link that ubottu gave you a few lines back.
[10:53] <Lantizia> "Ubuntu Commands"
[10:53] <Lantizia> excuse me while I puke
[10:53] <TCD> I'm using the link I got from ubottu, btw. :D Thanks everyone.
[10:53] <erUSUL> TCD: there should be a lot of free books around the net. a little googling does not hurt anybody
[10:54] <Xaero252> Seveas: it appears my little friend is back, seeing as theres nothing important here on this computer, I'll let him fool around, my pointer has (twice now) deliberately opened the about gnome box as well as my desktop wallpaper, although he hasn't done anything malicious yet at all...
[10:54] <TCD> :/ Sorry. I have a habit of underestimating google.
[10:54] <farchad> em
[10:54] <Seveas> Xaero252, pastebin the output of netstat -ntapu
[10:55] <Seveas> TCD, then use yahoo/bing :)
[10:55] <LinuxPhreak> TCD: As much as I use google I'm pissed off at them. I've tried everything possible to get a good PR but no luck
[10:55] <farchad> hello
[10:55] <LinuxPhreak> the kicker is my Alexa is near perfect
[10:55] <TCD> Seveas: No, I just know I use google too little for problems. :/
[10:56] <TCD> Or any search engine for that matter. Mainly due to the lame speed I got on windows.
[10:56] <LinuxPhreak> would anyone mind assisting me with my problem?
[10:56] <gngkai> hi
[10:57] <gngkai> after upgrading to 9.10 I noticed that sometimes wrong theme is loaded
[10:57] <Seveas> LinuxPhreak, is ubiquity still installed on your machine then?
[10:57] <Xaero252> Seveas: http://pastebin.com/m49cb61ae I ran it without sudo first and then with sudo
[10:57] <gngkai> what can I do to correct this bug?
[10:57] <LinuxPhreak> yes to my knowledge it is along with Remastersys
[10:58] <Xaero252> interestingly enough when I tried to run it with sudo, before I could finish typing the command my terminal's contents were pasted into my terminal to prevent me from typing anything for a few seconds
[10:58] <Hawks> Ïðèâåò, ðóññêèå åñòü ?
[10:58] <Seveas> Xaero252, and the output of 'ps axu' please
[10:58] <Seveas> Hawks, english only please
[10:59] <Seveas> !ru | Hawks
[10:59] <raven> hello
[10:59] <Xaero252> seveas: http://pastebin.com/m2a2f802d
[11:00] <Seveas> LinuxPhreak, find /usr/share/icons -name '*ubiquity*'
[11:00] <wgrant> LinuxPhreak: Or 'dpkg -L ubiquity', and look for anything that looks like an icon.
[11:00] <Seveas> Xaero252, and the output of 'ps axu | cat' please (the last one trimmed the useful bits)
[11:00] <raven> i need a SIMPLE tool to do jpeg-shots for observate changes
[11:01] <LinuxPhreak> ?
[11:01] <Seveas> LinuxPhreak, it's a command. Run it in the terminal :)
[11:04] <Xaero252> http://pastebin.com/m437614fd
[11:04] <Xaero252> gotta scroll down a bit
[11:04] <Xaero252> seveas: http://pastebin.com/m437614fd
[11:05] <Xaero252> he tried hard to not let that one thru, so theres 400 lines of blank spae
[11:05] <Xaero252> *space
[11:06] <LinuxPhreak> Well I got a bunch of results. But I didn't see anything pertaining to the icon
[11:07] <Xaero252> seveas: somehow killed pidgen
[11:07] <Xaero252> Seveas: not sure if you got the pastbin or not or replied
[11:07] <Seveas> Xaero252, looks all innocent. odd.
[11:08] <motaka2> how to type french in openoffice
[11:08] <chrisboom> hey, installed 9.10 server
[11:08] <chrisboom> cant see the network
[11:08] <chrisboom> last time i installed on same machine no problems
[11:08] <Xaero252> Seveas: very odd, because this stuff is pretty deliberate, changing desktops in compiz, closing terminals, bringing up information and settings panes, etc
[11:08] <chrisboom> this time in the installation it cant pickup the ethernet
[11:08] <Seveas> motaka2, comme celui-ci
[11:08] <chrisboom> plugged in exactly the same as it was. very frustrating
[11:08] <Seveas> Xaero252, yeah
[11:09] <motaka2> Seveas: mais mon ami j'ai besoin les characteres avec les accents
[11:09] <Seveas> Xaero252, you have a ghost in your machine
[11:09] <satz> have any one tryed using etherboot on ubunutu 9.10
[11:10] <Seveas> motaka2, I use the right alt key for that. system -> preferences -> keyboard. To type accents I now do <alt> followd by e and ' é
[11:10] <Xaero252> Seveas: Theres also nobody else attached to my network O.o so unless hes changed his Mac Adress to match mine (which can only be done on a handful of G cards to begin with)....
[11:10] <Seveas> motaka2, you can also do 'dead keys', then you don't need the alt but need to type ' followed by <space> to get a single '
[11:10] <Xaero252> Seveas: I'll just treat it as a ghost for now, until I see something deliberate and malicious, hopefully its just some strange quirk that goes away lololol
[11:11] <Seveas> hehehehe
[11:11] <chrisboom> any ideas?

[11:15] <richee_> hi I want to replace the string in all the files present in this directory - how can I do this ?
[11:15] <richee_>  for file in '/home/ar/test/*'
[11:15] <richee_>  do
[11:15] <richee_>  echo $file
[11:15] <richee_>  sed -e 's/xyz/abc/g' $file
[11:15] <richee_>  done
[11:15] <FloodBot2> richee_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:16] <jrib> richee_: sure, that will kind of work
[11:16] <Simulate> xD
[11:16] <edeca> richee_: sed -i for edit in place
[11:16] <raven> MOTION shoots a picture every third second - what is missing to change it to MOTION only?
[11:16] <richee_> edeca, let me try this
[11:16] <edeca> richee_: for file in '/blah/files/*'; do sed -ie 's/pattern/replacement/g' $f; done
[11:16] <iceroot> is it possible to copy 8gb data from a 16gb harddrive to an 12gb harddrive? (so source is bigger then target, but the data itselfs fits to both drives)
[11:17] <Dr_Willis> iceroot:  yes
[11:17] <edeca> A 16GB hard drive? ;)
[11:17] <iceroot> edeca: ssd
[11:17]  * edeca has memories of SCSI back in the day
[11:17] <edeca> Ah, nice.
[11:17] <richee_> edeca, thank you....
[11:18] <edeca> richee_: It worked?
[11:18] <raven> MOTION shoots a picture every third second - what is missing to change it to MOTION only?
[11:18] <richee_> edeca, yes :D
[11:18] <edeca> raven: Have you read the manpage?
[11:18] <vskram21> have any one tryed using etherboot in ubuntu 9.10
[11:18] <raven> edeca, several times but i do not find it
[11:19] <edeca> raven: Well motion itself detects the motion from a video stream, it doesn't take pictures
[11:19] <edeca> raven: So you must have something taking the pictures
[11:20] <raven> ok i was too fast now it seems to work correctly
[11:20] <edeca> raven: There are some options for tweaking sensitivity, too
[11:21] <raven> ok tnx

[11:32] <Blindsite> hi
[11:32] <Blindsite> im back
[11:32] <Blindsite> stil tring to get my net working on my desktop
[11:32] <Blindsite> it works on the live cd
[11:32] <Blindsite> but not post installation
[11:33] <Blindsite> can anyone help
[11:33] <Blindsite> or am i alone in here
[11:33] <aethelrick> hi Blindsite
[11:33] <Blindsite> hi
[11:33] <aethelrick> did you use network manager to setup your network?
[11:33] <Blindsite> yeah, its a DHCP
[11:34] <Blindsite> and like i said
[11:34] <Blindsite> when I used the live cd it worked
[11:34] <aethelrick> wireless or wired?
[11:34] <elgh> Anyone played Xmoto?
[11:34] <Blindsite> but after i installed it on the drive it didnt
[11:34] <Blindsite> wired
[11:34] <mdc_> ciao raga
[11:35] <aethelrick> can you see the network icon on the top bar on the desktop
[11:35] <Blindsite> i can
[11:35] <rmn> does network install allow LVM and cryptsetup?
[11:35] <Blindsite> it configured a eth1 during the live cd (which worked then) but now that connection keeps droppig out
[11:35] <edeca> Define "dropping out"?
[11:36] <Blindsite> disconnectiong
[11:36] <Blindsite> i select eth1, it tries to connect, and fails
[11:36] <mdc_> !list
[11:36] <aethelrick> k gimme a sec... just starting an ubuntu VM
[11:36] <edeca> One thing that sometimes happens is adapters change names after install, have you tried eth0 Blindsite?
[11:37] <Blindsite> k
[11:37] <edeca> Running 'sudo mii-tool' would help identify which one is plugged in
[11:37]  * edeca wonders if mii-tool is installed by default
[11:37] <tiger_> hey guys what is an alternative to wine
[11:37] <Blindsite> please don't ask me to copy/paste large amounts of info.   Im talking to you via my laptop here.  I'd have to manually copy whats on the screen
[11:38] <Blindsite> but hold on i'll go try mi-tool, or wee you talking to someone els
[11:38] <tiger_> use pastebin.net Blindsite
[11:38] <aethelrick> open a terminal Blindsite and type ifconfig<enter> into it
[11:39] <edeca> Good plan.
[11:39] <tiger_> so guys is there an alt software to wine for linux
[11:39] <Blindsite> um
[11:40] <Blindsite> it didnt like the <center> part
[11:40] <wgrant> tiger_: There is no other Free Windows API reimplementation.
[11:40] <Blindsite> keeps asking for a newline
[11:40] <jrib> tiger_: crossover, cedega?
[11:40] <aethelrick> lol, sorry... type ifconfig then press the enter button
[11:40] <Blindsite> oh
[11:40] <Blindsite> ok
[11:40] <Blindsite> did that
[11:40] <GodzKnightZ> Xubuntu 9.10 wont authenticate to my router with WPA/WPA2 Personal passphrase :(
[11:40] <tiger_> dedega ??
[11:40] <Blindsite> what am i looking for
[11:40] <tiger_> cedega
[11:40] <FloodBot2> Blindsite: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:41] <Blindsite> :(
[11:41] <aethelrick> Blindsite: you should now have one paaragraph of info per network card
[11:41] <Blindsite> i didnt mean to flood
[11:41] <Blindsite> yeah
[11:41] <aethelrick> Blindsite: do you see eth0 or eth1?
[11:41] <Blindsite> what am i looking for there
[11:41] <Blindsite> both
[11:41] <aethelrick> ok
[11:41] <vskram21> what kind of s/w ru going to use emulate @tiger
[11:42] <Blindsite> theres an interrupt error at the end of both
[11:42] <aethelrick> Blindsite: do either of them have an "inet addr"
[11:42] <Blindsite> hold on
[11:42] <Blindsite> lemme look
[11:42] <GodzKnightZ> Xubuntu 9.10 wont authenticate to my router with WPA/WPA2 Personal passphrase :(
[11:42] <BeeStone> how come that when I connect my cordless logitech keyboard to my ubuntu 9.10, the only working key is the "sleep" -key?
[11:43] <tiger_> then get your self a wpa/wpa2 key gen and problem sorted
[11:43] <Blindsite> nope, eth1 has a int6 addr but not an int addrss
[11:43] <Blindsite> the loopback DOES have an inet add though
[11:43] <BeeStone> how come that when I connect my cordless logitech keyboard to my ubuntu 9.10, the only working key is the "sleep" -key?
[11:43] <elgh> Anyone knowing anytrhing about Xmoto?
[11:44] <Dr_Willis> elgh:  its a game
[11:44] <Dr_Willis> elgh:  its a hard game
[11:44] <jrib> elgh: someone probably knows something.  Just ask your real question
[11:44] <jrib> see, Dr_Willis knows TWO somethings!
[11:44] <elgh> How do you start faster? Like WR recs.
[11:44] <Dr_Willis> elgh:  no idea what you mean
[11:44] <BeeStone> hello peopleee
[11:44] <BeeStone> how come that when I connect my cordless logitech keyboard to my ubuntu 9.10, the only working key is the "sleep" -key?
[11:45] <aethelrick> Blindsite: is your network setup for ipv6 or ipv4?
[11:45] <jrib> !repeat | BeeStone
[11:45] <Blindsite> ipv4
[11:45] <BeeStone> k sorry :)
[11:45] <elgh> It's impossible to accelerate as fast as WR ghosts.
[11:45] <Dr_Willis> elgh:  so?
[11:45] <Blindsite> no one around here uses ipv6
[11:45] <Dr_Willis> its not a speedy game?
[11:45] <jrib> BeeStone: you might see if booting with it already connected makes a difference
[11:46] <aethelrick> Blindsite: can you pastebin the ifconfig output please
[11:46] <elgh> Well, if a ghost can go that fast, so should I be able to do?
[11:46] <mi6> when i try to open the "display settings" then nothing happen. why not..???
[11:46] <Blindsite> how
[11:46] <Blindsite> my desktop doesn't have internet
[11:46] <konman> hi!
[11:46] <Dr_Willis> elgh:  no idwa what you mean by ghost. Ive played the game all of 10 min
[11:46] <GodzKnightZ> is it normal for XU when installing to create a 10g swap partition?
[11:47] <elgh> Then you don't know anything about it Dr_Willis.
[11:47] <rumpsy> :) . . . Happy Valentine's Day
[11:47] <jrib> GodzKnightZ: who is XU?
[11:47] <GodzKnightZ> jrib, Xubuntu
[11:47] <jrib> GodzKnightZ: 10gb is a lot of swap.  How much ram do you have?
[11:47] <Blindsite> *sigh* ok simpler question ow do you "pastebin"  I guess ill have to manually copy all that
[11:47] <Blindsite> awww
[11:47] <Blindsite> he elf
[11:47] <FloodBot2> Blindsite: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:47] <Blindsite> left
[11:47] <GodzKnightZ> jrib, ah 4gigs
[11:48] <rumpsy> Blindsite: ? what do you want?
[11:48] <Blindsite> i want to get internet working on my desktop
[11:48] <jrib> GodzKnightZ: Just use 4gigs of ram then so you can hibernate
[11:48] <jrib> GodzKnightZ: Just use 4gigs of swap then so you can hibernate
[11:48] <Blindsite> it worked via the live cd but not now after i've installed it
[11:48] <rumpsy> Blindsite: Then how do you chatting now?
[11:48] <Blindsite> im on my laptop
[11:48] <Blindsite> dif comp
[11:49] <Blindsite> thats how
[11:49] <rumpsy> Blindsite: okay starup the comp, which is not having internet
[11:49] <GodzKnightZ> jrib, well i just let Xubuntu install itself cause i havent touched linux in forever and got sick of microsofts BS so just let it do it all itself and it seems sluggish and wasnt sure if it was normal for a 10g swap partition
[11:49] <Blindsite> done
[11:49] <erUSUL> !pastebinit | Blindsite
[11:49] <rumpsy> Blindsite: What interface you are having? i mean ethernet card type?
[11:50] <jrib> GodzKnightZ: 10gb won't hurt, you just won't have that space available for your files.  Check if you are actually even using swap (free -m)
[11:50] <richee_> hi edeca I have a script awk '/Blah/' {print} /etc/passwd, now I want to print success if it was found and unsucessfull if the keyword was not found how would I do that. I tired using $? but it's not giving the correct output
[11:50] <Blindsite> um im using a wired connection
[11:50] <rumpsy> Blindsite: use auto DHCP
[11:50] <rumpsy> Blindsite: use auto DHCP
[11:50] <Blindsite> i was
[11:51] <Blindsite> it doesnt work post installation
[11:51] <ninni> Buongiorno
[11:51] <GodzKnightZ> jrib, Swap:         9705          0       9705 <-- says 0 under used column heh
[11:51] <rumpsy> Blindsite: use this command, ifconfig, and tell me what it shows, pastebin it
[11:51] <konman> i'about to download ubuntu 9.10 to install it on an AMD Phenom II X4 965 BE machine with 8GB OCZ DDR3-1333 ram. should i take the 64bit version or 32bit with PAE? is 64 ready for main stream?
[11:51] <jrib> GodzKnightZ: yep
[11:52] <Dr_Willis> konman:  use 64bit
[11:52] <rumpsy> konman: use 64
[11:52] <GodzKnightZ> jrib, so i don't even need the swap partition?
[11:52] <Blindsite> how do i pastebin from another comp?
[11:52] <Blindsite> but hold on
[11:52] <Blindsite> im going to go copy it manually anyway
[11:52] <Blindsite> since people keep asking
[11:52] <jrib> GodzKnightZ: you're likely only to need it if you want to suspend to disk (hibernate)
[11:52] <rumpsy> Blindsite: wait
[11:52] <konman> so 64 is for main stream
[11:52] <konman> cool
[11:52] <DontKnow> hello, can anyone tell me what could be wrong if Ubuntu sometimes, after booting up, lacks like hell and after a while locks,without giving any error messages while next boot up everything is fine again?
[11:52] <rumpsy> Blindsite: tell me first two line
[11:53] <Dr_Willis> 64bit works fine on my 3 machines
[11:53] <konman> thanks
[11:53] <GodzKnightZ> jrib, ahh kk thanks :) you got any suggestions on how to get my wireless card to authenticate with WPA passphrase to my router ?
[11:53] <konman> i try it out :)
[11:53] <rumpsy> konman: :)
[11:54] <rumpsy> Blindsite: Give me the first two line of that command.
[11:54] <capron> GodzKnightZ, Net-Workmanger shud fix that wpa connect
[11:55] <DontKnow> hello, can anyone tell me what could be wrong if Ubuntu sometimes, after booting up, lacks like hell and after a while locks,without giving any error messages while next boot up everything is fine again?

[11:57] <natrixnatrix89> How can i add processes that would start on init. (without using graphical system>preferences>startup applications)
[11:58] <natrixnatrix89> Is there a configuration file for that
[11:58] <Blindsite> k
[11:58] <DontKnow> @Dr_Willis found an article using grub with memtest86+ is that sth you mean?
[11:58] <natrixnatrix89> I looked at man init, but didnt really understand
[11:58] <Dr_Willis> DontKnow:  grub by default has an entry for memtest.. use that .. that is mentest867+
[11:58] <rumpsy> Blindsite: unlock it, by using your password
[11:59] <DontKnow> @Dr_Willis oh okay i will take a look thx
[11:59] <Blindsite> it didnt ask for the password
[11:59] <rumpsy> Blindsite: okay

[12:09] <BeeStone> yeah, but I suck at using the prompt + it's hard to understand those, I'm not a native english speaker.
[12:10] <Dr_Willis> BeeStone:  time to learn some linux basics then they give the exact commnds you use
[12:10] <Dr_Willis> chmod +x whatever.bin
[12:10] <Dr_Willis> sudo ./whatever.bin
[12:10] <Dr_Willis> thats the normal way one 'runs' bin installers
[12:10] <BeeStone> okay, thx
[12:10] <Dr_Willis> thats what the install docs said to do.... not too complex
[12:11] <Blindsite> um the sudo command rumpsy gave me doesnt seem to be working
[12:11]  * Dr_Willis has no idea if that hidpoint stuff is going o actually Improve anything....
[12:12] <Blindsite> or maybe its just takng a long time
[12:12] <bazhang> Blindsite, did you try the command I gave you to run
[12:12] <Dolmio> hey im trying to install ssh but i seem to have a error when i restart it....i dont think its setup correct on my ubuntu box! any ideas? http://www.fpaste.org/vI5H/

[12:15] <Tek-5-8-6> the dvd seems to tale much longer to install
[12:15] <Blindsite> no working leases in persistant database
[12:15] <Tek-5-8-6> Crap, How can I un-install the language packs?
[12:16] <Tek-5-8-6> dont want all the extra bagage on my HD
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> Tek-5-8-6:  no idea really. I dont know that it even does install them all
[12:16] <Rysiek_X64> thx blindsite, do you have messenger.hotmail.com as server and port 1863 (default), I can not even ping to this adres,
[12:16] <pelandrit> help, i know the kernel is in /install/vmlinuz but when i write that route on the boot prompt only says "could not find kernel image: /install/vmlinuz"
[12:17] <Blindsite> baz are you still there
[12:17] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  what kernel is in /install/ ?
[12:17] <BeeStone> now it's installing, thanks!
[12:17] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  also case is imporntant
[12:17] <unimatrix9> any one here running lernid , that works?
[12:18] <pelandrit> Dr_Willis: did you read my first question?
[12:18] <Blindsite> *sigh* im never going to get this net connected
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  if it was noire then 15 lines ago 0- its past the toip  of my screen
[12:18] <pelandrit> hello folks, i'm trying to install an "alternate" version from usb stick, i tried it folowing instructions from here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick but when i boot from usb stick instead of the boot menu i only get a "boot:" prompt, what must i write in that promp? os must i try other way to boot?
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  theres also the grub 'root' option to tell it where / starts
[12:19] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  i would say your syslinux.cfg on the stick is wrong/bad/
[12:19] <Dr_Willis> but why is it using grub and not syslinux.. Hmmm
[12:19] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  how did you make that flash drive?
[12:20] <bazhang> Blindsite, odd that you have eth0 and eth1; does sudo dhclient eth1 give any returns/leases?
[12:20] <pelandrit> Dr_Willis: i tried it with usb-creator and also with unetbootin from the cd iso, both with the same resutl
[12:21] <hyperstream> Dr_Willis, still no luck, hours of googling now lol
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  you could also set uop grub2 to boot the iso file as a 3rd way
[12:21] <Blindsite> didn't check.  right now im booting into the live cd to see if i can get my net back there
[12:21] <Blindsite> might be able to copy the settings or something
[12:21] <hyperstream> Dr_Willis, the best i got with pulseaudio over the network was, the PC could control laptop(working backwards) but no sound from PC speakers
[12:21] <onaogh> hyperstream, wats up
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  ages ago i had a issue wuth unetbootin where it dident properly install the bootloader. i had to zero the flash drive with dd and reformat it.. then it worked right
[12:22] <hyperstream> onaogh, pulseaudio drama's
[12:22] <Dr_Willis> hyperstream:  heh .  I had no issues. but i was wired
[12:22] <bazhang> Blindsite, were you hotplugging the ethernet cable? ie after your system had already started uo
[12:22] <hyperstream> onaogh, last several hours, been googling since this morning.
[12:22] <Dr_Willis> hyperstream:  proberly One chekcbox to mess with
[12:22] <hyperstream> Dr_Willis, i tried every setting combination you could imagen
[12:22] <hyperstream> Dr_Willis, both machines are wired now :)
[12:22] <pelandrit> Dr_Willis: i dit it, even changed the partition table and deleted the partition
[12:23] <hyperstream> Dr_Willis, definatly exhausting everything i can think of lol
[12:23] <jimcooncat> Running Karmic LiveCD for first time, wanting to show off to some interested Windows users. When first started, Restricted Drivers notification had me install nvidia drivers, then asked me to reboot.  Can I just restart X for it to work?
[12:23] <Blindsite> same problems in the live cd now
[12:24] <Blindsite> this is very confusing
[12:24] <pelandrit> Dr_Willis: you say something about  syslinux.cfg, i can see that file if i mount the stick in a running system, can i fix the text of the file to solve the problem?
[12:24] <hyperstream> Does anyone know of another method of streaming music across a network(2 Ubuntu machines) and them being sync or very close to? failed with VLC media player as well, think im'a have to buy another copy of windows 7 for my main box ><
[12:24] <mikeconcepts> what is postfix, update asking me to select mail server, I just use thunderbird mail from cable company
[12:24] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  but you said its udsing grub:  that dosent make sence, syslinux is an alternatiove bootloader to grub,
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  the 2 do not shre the same config files or syntax
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  it sounds like somehow grub stayed on the hd and syslinux never got installed
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> never installed to the MBR that is,
[12:25] <jimcooncat> so how to restart X now that ctrl-alt-backspace has been disabled?
[12:26] <Dr_Willis> !dontzap | jimcooncat
[12:26] <Blindsite> i just used the dhclient on eth1, its not working either
[12:26] <Gangrel> anyone can tell me why when i use sudo apt-get update after some rep updates i get stack on 99% ?
[12:26] <Dr_Willis> jimcooncat:  sudo service gdm restart     is one way
[12:27] <mmm> Mike-Martin-Mielke
[12:27] <pelandrit> Dr_Willis: well, i think the syslinux is installed on the stick because the first line when i boot is "SYSLINUX 3.5.3 ....."
[12:27] <Blindsite> baz u there
[12:27] <Tek-5-8-6> Was reading up on the ext4 file system, Currently is there still an issue with Delayed allocation and data loss ?
[12:27] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  then you are ysunbg syslinux, not grub.  i am not sure of the proper syslinux command line commands
[12:27] <pelandrit> Dr_Willis: and after that appears the "boot:" prompt
[12:27] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  but the 2 are very different
[12:27] <bazhang> Blindsite, this is on the livecd? and sudo dhclient eth0 fails on the live cd as well? what does lspci say about that ethernet
[12:28] <korenbloem> aaa
[12:28] <Blindsite> ok im going to dhclient eth0 again, and whats lspci?
[12:28] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  it could be looking for the wrong syslinux.cfg file
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  check the drive for other ones and see if theres a wrong/differnt one in some other location
[12:29] <bazhang> Blindsite, it will tell us the card (eg realtek, or other)
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  iver had unetbootin make wrong syslinux cfg files befor
[12:29] <Blindsite> whats the syntax
[12:29] <Blindsite> i'll run it after dhclient is done
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  as an alternative theres an nother usb disk maker tool (for windows) called linuxloader that can make a flash drive as well - it mnay be a little smarter. (or not)
[12:30] <bazhang> Blindsite, try sudo dhclient eth0 first, then lspci and tell us the ethernet card
[12:30] <pelandrit> Dr_Willis: i think the problem is i'm using an alternate version
[12:30] <jimcooncat_> thanks Dr_Willis , ctrl-alt-backspace did the trick now
[12:30] <Blindsite> no leases for eth0 either
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  i Think ive done a usb install with the alt versiuon. The Server version i think does not work with usb flash installs
[12:31] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  with grub2 i set up to boot iso files for 4 differnt ubuntus from a single flash drive. :)
[12:31] <Dr_Willis> pelandrit:  im not sure if i tried the alt cd or not.
[12:31] <jimcooncat_> New livecd user, is there a quick shortcut from the menu to get to irc #ubuntu? I had to connect with web interface, and want to show new users the quick way to get here using the livecd.
[12:31] <Dill> I have an Eee 1005HA and had the Ubuntu 9.10 NBR and had problems with the external microphone.  Someone helped me fix it but I ended up going from the NBR to the standard version because i hated the side dock.  Now the problem is back.  doesn anyone out there know how to fix this and feel like giving me a hand?
[12:31] <Blindsite> yeesh thats a lot of info

[12:38] <fiona> heya. why is it that everytime I try and start firefox, I get a notification that it's already running an not responding. This happens even after reboot and I don't see any related processes running.
[12:38] <bazhang> Blindsite, ethernet network controller ?
[12:38] <reeniginEesreveR> how can i find out the compilation options for a particular package? I have nginx installed using apt-get, i wanna know which modules were compiled alongwith it

[12:40] <rothsdad> babo1: or kdm?
[12:40] <babo1> rothsdad: gdm
[12:40] <prodigel> GrayRobes, no worries. I'm using ubuntu 9.10 64bit, lspci tells me the soundcard is Azalia, which I recall is right.
[12:40] <babo1> i'm using terminal in gnome
[12:40] <babo1> rothsdad ^
[12:40] <fiona> zenyatta: how do I check that if I can't turn it on?
[12:41] <zenyatta> fiona: ahhh i see. I'd try re-installing it - thats what i was getting at
[12:41] <Blindsite> thats my eth controller
[12:41] <rothsdad> babo1: maybe you could put the export into the .xinitrc
[12:41] <fiona> zenyatta: okies, that was my last option as well
[12:42] <bazhang> Blindsite, what about sudo ifup eth0
[12:42] <Rysiek_X64> does anyone more use pingin to connect to msn network ?

[12:44] <bazhang> rabbi1, ubuntu-restricted-extras is the package name

[12:47] <Blindsite> bazhag you there?
[12:48] <bazhang> rabbi1, don't recall it needs a restart, just closing the musicplayers and trying them again should do it; you may wish also to check out medibuntu.org for the w32codecs

[12:54] <bazhang> Blindsite, you are starting up with the ethernet cable attached? and this connection works reliably with other computers? no mac address filtering on the router or the like?
[12:54] <rabbi1> baz, its still the same after installing the package u mentioned
[12:54] <Xaero252> seveas: if your still up and or about, I figured out my issue, it was voltage related, although the clicks seemed EXTREMELY deliberate; just for future reference

[12:55] <abhi_nav> smilyes are allowed in irc?
[12:56] <Signum> Evening. Can I tell the network manager to pull up my WLAN interface even though I'm not yet logged into Gnome? I want to use autofs with NFS4 and libpam-ldap. But I have a chicken-egg problem because the login won't work before libpam-ldap runs which can't work before the network is there which is activated from within Gnome. :)
[12:56] <Xaero252> abhi_nav: thats pidgin, not irc doing the smilies :D
[12:56] <Guest58987> Please tell me the process
[12:56] <sebsebseb> !vnc |  Guest58987
[12:56] <bazhang> abhi_nav, in the offtopic channel preferably

[12:57] <Xaero252> rabbi, that sounds like dns resolver issues to me, if you can browse the site normally but cannot ping it using the domain name, try doing a tracert to google.com, and see if that goes through fine, if it does, the dns resolver cache may just need to be reset
[12:58] <Blindsite1> so wat do i do now
[12:58] <`mOOse`> Kebap__, show me exactly what you're typing

[12:59] <Blindsite1> my desktop comp has no internet
[12:59] <Blindsite1> so no google.com there
[12:59] <bazhang> rabbi1, all players, or only rhythmbox
[12:59] <`mOOse`> Kebap__, ...ok, why does that concern you though? If your dns is down temporarily? Is there a concrete effect on your using the web?
[13:00] <rabbi1> bazhang. not sure, coz my movie runs well in movie player
[13:00] <Blindsite1> we've been trying to get this to work for the last couple hours
[13:00] <Xaero252> blindsite: what networking hardware are you using, presumably a cable or dsl modem, but what is in between the two computers, a wired router, wireless router or a switch?
[13:00] <TCD> Apparently I have 100% disk usage in the ubuntu folder. How is this possible; I've only had it for literally 4 hours.
[13:00] <rabbi1> bazhand. its jut i have prob with my .mp3 files i guess
[13:00] <Blindsite1> wired
[13:00] <Blindsite1> ethernet
[13:00] <Kebap__> `mOOse`: i want to play an online game that also cant connect to its servers anymore, even though they are on. no, the browser is not affected. here is what i was trying to ping: http://pastebin.com/m1a8e5c6b
[13:00] <progre55> aluex, btw, is it just on & or two &&?
[13:00] <Blindsite1> bazhag knows
[13:00] <q0k> I'm outside of Japan. Fujitsu laptops aren't sold here. I want to buy one and to install Ubuntu; but if Ubuntu doesn't run I'll have big problems (will certainly not get the refund, will have to sell it myself, etc.) Do you have a Fujitsu s7220 to test Ubuntu on it?
[13:00] <Blindsite1> been working with him]
[13:00] <bazhang> rabbi1, on the same drive? shared with a windows install?
[13:01] <Blindsite1> but he seems to be busy
[13:01] <`mOOse`> Kebap__, well, your dns is working obviously....(looking)....
[13:01] <rabbi1> i tout abt that, so i copied few files to linux drive from fat32
[13:01] <Xaero252> blindsite1: is this wired hub a router or a switch, if its only a switch it doesnt have the neccesary software on the device to assing ip adresses and direct internet traffic so the first computer connected would be the one to get the internet
[13:01] <bazhang> rabbi1, so this is from a flash key?
[13:01] <rabbi1> baz. sorry baz no idea abt that....
[13:02] <Blindsite1> its a router.  inet goes to my router and to my various comps
[13:02] <bazhang> rabbi1, try rebuilding the database with only the files you copied over, also go to the folder where they are and simply hold your mouse over one of them
[13:02] <Blindsite1> i know the router is working because im talking to you here on my laptop
[13:02] <`mOOse`> Kebap__, - ping is timing out for me too (I'm in NY)....I'm going to say it's the site, and not us, ok? ;-)
[13:02] <Xaero252> blindsite1: can you pastebin me the output of ifconfig?
[13:02] <graphicsnoob> hello - a friend of mine has ubuntu 9.10 and a ATI Radeon Xpress 1150 graphics card. We tried 2 methods for getting the 3D accelleration to work, both of them didn't work correctly. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI  . anyone know how to get it right?
[13:02] <`mOOse`> brb - coffee!!
[13:03] <Blindsite1> no i can't i'd have to type it manually
[13:03] <rabbi1> baz. ok. wht will that do?
[13:03] <Kebap__> `mOOse`: when you ping google, you get no response either?
[13:03] <Blindsite1> what part exactly do you want
[13:03] <abhi_nav> good gnome themes website other than gnome-art itself??
[13:04] <Blindsite1> my desktop doesn't have internet.  So i'd be copying manually
[13:04] <rabbi1> ubuntu-restricted-extras is fully installed
[13:04] <bazhang> rabbi1, just to test your sound, and see if the mp3 files are corrupted
[13:04] <Kebap__> `mOOse`: the game would react differently if it senses the servers are down.. i am pretty sure, it is something on my side of the connection so it wont even start
[13:04] <graphicsnoob> abhi_nav: http://gnome-look.org/
[13:04] <sonic> Hi! Having some trouble with glc-capture. Can someone help?
[13:04] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: what it says for eth0 or eth1, look for UP or DOWN in the text next to those two entries, also look for "inet addr:" as well as "Bcast:" & "Mask:"
[13:04] <rabbi1> baz. files are fine, runs well in win
[13:04] <abhi_nav> graphicsnoob: i know this. i want any other great site
[13:04] <tiger_> is there a linux alt to the internet download manager
[13:05] <rabbi1> baz, and also some movies will run well in movie player
[13:05] <abhi_nav> sonic: what is glc?
[13:05] <bazhang> rabbi1, they are shared from a separate partition? you mentioned something about fat32
[13:05] <rabbi1> baz. my sound cards are also fine.
[13:05] <Blindsite1> well right now i can tell you neither eth0 or eth1 have inet addr
[13:05] <q0k> I'm outside of Japan. Fujitsu laptops aren't sold here. I want to buy one and to install Ubuntu; but if Ubuntu doesn't run I'll have big problems (will certainly not get the refund, will have to sell it myself, etc.) Do you have a Fujitsu s7220 to test Ubuntu on it?
[13:05] <Blindsite1> lemme check on the rest
[13:06] <Xaero252> abhi_nav: heres a good one: http://customize.org/gtk
[13:06] <rabbi1> baz. yeap. b4 i was tryin to lstn from there but din't work, then i copied to my music folder even then its the same, and other movie file saved it fat32 works well
[13:06] <sonic> abhi_nav glc is an openGL and ALSA Capture tool. Especially usefull for games. I am uploading youtube vids about games and trying to use GLC for better results.
[13:07] <graphicsnoob> tiger_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=526232
[13:07] <abhi_nav> thnx this one is also great: http://www.bisigi-project.org/
[13:07] <tiger_> thanks
[13:07] <Blindsite1> up broadcast multicast 1500 metric 1
[13:07] <Blindsite1> no mask
[13:07] <bazhang> rabbi1, try tab completing my name:  baz <tabkey> otherwise I will miss your responses; your sound is fine, as are the files, thus it may be an issue with accessing the shared drive and the reason I asked you to rebuild the database of only the files copied to the same partition as your ubuntu install.
[13:08] <Blindsite1> no Bcast
[13:08] <Xaero252> Blindsite: do the following: sudo ifconfig eth0 down (repeat for eth1) then bring up eth0 with sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[13:08] <Xaero252> see if it obtains an ip adress then
[13:08] <rabbi1> baz, if i open .mp3 in movie player, it says wrong argument
[13:08] <bazhang> rabbi1, tab complete
[13:09] <Xaero252> bazhang: cool, i never knew you could do that LOL
[13:09] <Xaero252> bazhang: at least not in pidgin
[13:09] <rabbi1> bazhang: ok, will try
[13:09] <sonic> abhi_nav: glc is an openGL and ALSA Capture tool. Especially usefull for games. I am uploading youtube vids about games and trying to use GLC for better results.
[13:09] <abhi_nav> sonic: i got it thnx
[13:09] <bazhang> rabbi1, try with rhythmbox to rebuild the database with only the songs you have copied over.
[13:09] <sonic> Well sorry for the double post then. ^^;
[13:10] <avogadro> How do you change CPU throttling from cli ?
[13:10] <abhi_nav> sonic: i dont know that so i asked you. i know about sdl only
[13:10] <Hb_Kai> hi, i'm trying to use "split" to split a 26.7 but i can't get why it won't work. how can i split the file in GB and not Bytes?
[13:10] <Xaero252> Hb_Kai: try using the doing 26.7G
[13:10] <Xaero252> Hb_Kai: wow horrid english try doing 26.7G
[13:11] <sonic> abhi_nav: Well thought so. this program is a bit new, so didn't think I would find someone so easily who can help me with it. I'm asking the forum. Thx anyway! =) Bye
[13:11] <Blindsite1> xaerox i entered those comands
[13:12] <Blindsite1> they didnt do anything
[13:12] <usuario__> hello
[13:12] <Blindsite1> and the output from ifconfig hasn't changed
[13:12] <rabbi1> bazhang: i tried, but no luck, let me restart and check, or just logoff will do?
[13:12] <bazhang> rabbi1, ok
[13:12] <abhi_nav> sonic: by
[13:12] <Xaero252> Hb_kai: most commands have useful info like that built into them try man -k <command> or info <command> or <command> --help

[13:14] <ionut> hi.i have a new partition and when i want to create a new folder i can't do that (i have all priviledges)
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> ionut:  the partion itself has a owner and permissions
[13:14] <Hb_Kai> yeah, i tried that and it said to use split for what i want to do. sorry, i didn't mention what i was trying to do before; i want this text file split into 5gb pieces
[13:15] <ionut> how can i modify that ?
[13:15] <Guest58987> I have install VNC now tell me the process to configure it.
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> ionut:  check the owner/permissions of the mountpoint after its mounted
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> ionut:  sudo chown owner:owner /media/whatver
[13:15] <jrib> ionut: what filesystem?
[13:15] <GodzKnightZ> ok google has not been my friend through this ordeal with my wireless card and not authenticating with my router (wpa) can anyone help? im running xubuntu 9.10 and its a Intel 5100 agn wireless card
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> Guest58987:  what exactly did you install?
[13:15] <ionut> jrib: what ?
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> ionut:  ext2/3/4 ntfs? vfat?
[13:16] <Guest58987> I installed VNCserver
[13:16] <ionut> ext2
[13:16] <ionut> Dr_Willis: ext2
[13:16] <Dr_Willis> Guest58987:  normally you run 'vncserver' command.  give it a password..  and then connect with a client
[13:16] <Guest58987> then I give a password to it, Now when I run it from terminal I get error
[13:16] <Blindsite1> hmm
[13:17] <Dr_Willis> ionut:  so set the permissions/ownership of the root of the drive.. or of a single dir on the drive tobeowned by the user you want
[13:17] <Dr_Willis> Guest58987:  and the error is?
[13:17] <ionut> Dr_Willis: how can i do that ?
[13:17] <Dr_Willis> ionut:  sudo chown owner:owner /media/whatver
[13:17] <abhi_nav> Hats off to Open Source Community!!!   :)  :)  :)
[13:17] <Dr_Willis> ionut:  or sudo mkdir /media/whatever/UsersStuff
[13:17] <ionut> Dr_Willis: first owner is my username ?
[13:17] <Dr_Willis> ionut:  yes .
[13:17] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: when you right click on the network manager icon and then click on edit connections is there an Auto Eth0 connection?
[13:18] <ionut> and the second is for example root ?

[13:18] <Dr_Willis> ionut:  No.. its also your user
[13:18] <Guest58987> I received this
[13:18] <ionut> ow
[13:18] <Blindsite1> aye
[13:18] <Dr_Willis> ionut:  ls -ld /home/username to see waht the perms/owner should be
[13:18] <ionut> Dr_Willis: done
[13:18] <ionut> Dr_Willis: tnx a lot
[13:18] <Blindsite1> thats what weve been working with
[13:18] <Dr_Willis> Guest58987:  so? thats not an error..  thats telling you wnat it did
[13:18] <Dr_Willis> Guest58987:  you seem to have 3 vnvsessions going now
[13:19] <Guest58987> Then what should I do to connect it?
[13:19] <Dr_Willis> Guest58987:  you can force them to close with 'vncserver -kill :1' (where :1 can be :2 or :3 also)
[13:19] <Xaero252> interesting, is there a particular reason you cant, say, use a static IP adress for this computer? since DHCP seems to not be working correctly and I havn't the knowledge about 9.10 to do anything about it
[13:19] <Guest58987> Okey
[13:19] <Dr_Willis> Guest58987:  run a vnc client and connect to the whatever:3 machine/session like its saying
[13:20] <Guest58987> VNC client should be running on ubuntu or on xp (from which I want to access my ubuntu)
[13:20] <Xaero252> Guest58987: XP
[13:21] <Guest58987> Okey
[13:21] <Dr_Willis> Guest58987:  a client connets to the server.. You could run it from whatever machine you want
[13:21] <Dr_Willis> You can test it on the local machine if you wanted
[13:21] <anurag> join /#ubuntu-beginners
[13:21] <Guest58987> Okey, Do I also need VNC Client?
[13:21] <rabbi1> bazhang: nothing workin even after restart
[13:21] <Blindsite1> my router is configured for dhcp
[13:21] <Dr_Willis> Guest58987:   if you want to connect to a server.. you need a client.. yes
[13:22] <Guest58987> I am receiving same message after killing :1, :2, and:3 , What should I take next step?
[13:22] <Blindsite1> basicallhy i need my comp and router to communicate
[13:22] <trijntje> hi all, is it possible to play .ppt files with sound on ubuntu?
[13:22] <bazhang> rabbi1, you killed the ubuntu-restricted-extras before it configured, after it had downloaded?
[13:22] <zicho> how can i check if dbus is working correctly?
[13:23] <rabbi1> bazhang: ok will remove and install again then?
[13:23] <Dr_Willis> Guest58987:  you need ONE running or you are typing somthign wrong
[13:23] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: I don't know enough about linux networking to help you out on DHCP not getting information from the router
[13:23] <ionut> hei,does anyone knows a good slideshow application (like a gadget) for my desktop ?
[13:23] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: I'll google around a bit tho
[13:23] <Blindsite1> k
[13:23] <bazhang> rabbi1, just try to install and see if you get an error
[13:23] <Dr_Willis> vncserver -kill :1        ---> to kill #1
[13:23] <Guest58987> I am typing: 'vncserver' in terminal
[13:23] <Blindsite1> baz what are your thoughts on all this
[13:24] <Dr_Willis> Guest58987:  'vncserver' spawns more vnc sessions...
[13:24] <Dr_Willis> Guest58987:  'vncserver -kill :#'   KILLS the specific vnc session
[13:24] <bazhang> rabbi1, you killed it before it was finished downloading? correct? or only after it has started configuring the packages
[13:24] <furythor> Hello I am working on my home server project and installing Open LDAP according to thishttps://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/openldap-server.html#openldap-configuration guide is it valid ?
[13:24] <Guest58987> Oh I see, But I want to run vncserver, Now what should I type to run it accurately
[13:25] <Dr_Willis> Guest58987:  KILL all the extra sessions.. start ONE with 'vncserver'

[13:27] <F3nix> doc
[13:27] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: do sudo cat /etc/network/interfaces, it should have an auto eth0 (new line) iface eth0 inet dhcp (two lines approx) for each connection, does it?
[13:27] <Dr_Willis> proberly some key combo also.. but i dont rember it
[13:27] <Blindsite1> k
[13:27] <Blindsite1> hold on
[13:28] <rabbi1> bazhang: did reinstall, still the same prob
[13:28] <bazhang> rabbi1, it was hanging on the microfont fonts and you killed the process a second time?
[13:28] <lasume> My PC is connected to two different Wi-Fi networks. How do I route Bittorrent through one specific network?
[13:29] <anodesni> I have a freeNAS server with NFS enabled. I want to access the share, added it to /etc/fstab and I do sudo mount /files, it says "access denied by server while mounting"
[13:29] <anodesni> How is this possible?
[13:29] <furythor> what is that command to see stats when I log in with SSH to my server machine ?
[13:29] <jrib> furythor: what "stats"?
[13:30] <Blindsite1> no all it has is the lo info
[13:30] <Xaero252> jrib: furythor agreed, "stats" is too vague, disk usage, cpu usage, temperature??
[13:30] <Blindsite1> eth connections don't even show up
[13:30] <furythor> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d7119165b stats mentioned in that
[13:31] <katesmith> hey hi
[13:31] <l3ns> hi everyone
[13:31] <katesmith> wow there are lots of people in here this is a real big channel
[13:31] <l3ns> what software in ubuntu that I could use to download the videos off youtube?
[13:31] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: add auto eth0 iface (new line) eth0 inet dhcp to the bottom of that file (sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces), save the file and then do sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[13:31] <furythor> Hehe, main support frontier
[13:31] <bazhang> rabbi1, same problem is the install of the ubuntu-restricted-extras package?
[13:32] <furythor> !offtopic
[13:32] <bazhang> l3ns, youtube-dl
[13:32] <l3ns> bazhang, thanks, i look around for it :)
[13:32] <Xaero252> l3ns: any firefox addon that downloads youtube videos will work on ubuntu :D
[13:33] <ThA-LaN-LaW> hi
[13:34] <ThA-LaN-LaW> in my vmware workstation runs ubuntu 8.04 with lvm
[13:34] <rabbi1> bazhang: same prob
[13:34] <ThA-LaN-LaW> i resize in vmware workstation the size of the harddisk
[13:34] <rabbi1> bazhang: it jus hangs, but when i restarted linux run a scan
[13:34] <jiohdi> Xaero252: there is one add-on which has three colored balls, works on youtube and all other flv sites
[13:34] <ThA-LaN-LaW> how can i extend the lvm partition on /dev/sda to the new size
[13:34] <furythor> Xaero252: Check firefox addons, I think Download helper atleast can do that, but also youtube actively tries to prevent videos being downloaded
[13:35] <bazhang> rabbi1, please clarify: same problem = not installed, you killed it mid-process? how long did you allow for it find new mirrors
[13:35] <Xaero252> fury, jiohdi I was informing someone not asking but thanks :D
[13:35] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: I totally fudged that addition to /etc/network/interfaces, it should be auto eth0 (new line) iface eth0 inet dhcp
[13:35] <Migi32> what open-source application/software can I use to record my MIDI keyboard straight into a printable music file?
[13:35] <rabbi1> bazhang: i jus forcequit whn it asked for mttffont somthing
[13:35] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: i had the (new line) in the wrong spot, its too early for this
[13:36] <bazhang> rabbi1, yes, I understand, how long did you let if find new mirrors, or not at all
[13:36] <Xaero252> Migi32: http://www.google.com/search?q=Midi+to+sheet+music+open+source&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
[13:36] <Migi32> thx
[13:36] <Xaero252> (google is amazing)
[13:36] <Migi32> Xaero252, not very useful...
[13:37] <Migi32> getting results like "Midi Sheet Music Viewer"
[13:37] <rabbi1> bazhang: u there?
[13:37] <rabbi1> just tell me at once now wht i have to do?
[13:38] <bazhang> rabbi1, well, when you are not in a hurry, you will need to let the installer find new mirrors, not kill the process, let it finish configuring the packages it did download, etc
[13:38] <rabbi1> will remove extra package, will restart and then again will install, then restart and c. shall i?
[13:38] <catzz> Hello please advice good program for CD burn
[13:38] <Xaero252> Migi32: sorry, I misread what you wanted, you want to record your midi keyboard into say, a .midi or .mp3?
[13:38] <bazhang> rabbi1, that wont help as you keep killing it mid-process before it has configured the packages.
[13:39] <Migi32> Xaero252, no, midi -> printable music sheet. The google results were about viewing existing music sheets or sheet -> midi
[13:39] <rabbi1> ok, it jus went gray, i tout i hung and no process active
[13:39] <bazhang> !burn > catzz
[13:39] <rabbi1> bazhang: its mistake, will check this time, will be very patient also.
[13:39] <rabbi1> ;)
[13:39] <bazhang> rabbi1, did you click details?
[13:40] <rabbi1> bazhang: yeap, i did click details it was still loadin and it said done
[13:40] <bazhang> rabbi1, ie to accept the license terms?
[13:40] <rabbi1> nop.
[13:40] <catzz> thanls
[13:40] <catzz> thanks
[13:41] <rabbi1> bazhang: din't ask any, ok now i will retry the process. :) wht say?
[13:41] <bazhang> rabbi1, good luck, please address your issues to the channel as I will not be around for a while
[13:42] <rabbi1> bazhang: thx a lot, catch u later, hopefully will be ok this time ;)

[13:43] <pier> Hi, I'm looking for a belkin driver N1 wireless USB , model F5D8051 Where Can I find this please ?
[13:43] <Xaero252> Migi32: I'm not sure such software exists, although if you can record to .mid(i) and then parse it through a viewer it would do essentially the same thing, providing you with both a digital and paper copy ;)
[13:43] <Blindsite1> it failed
[13:43] <timmarshall> how does ubuntu one work its confused me??
[13:44] <Blindsite1> Xaero it failed to restart
[13:44] <Migi32> Xaero252, too bad. Thanks for helping, though
[13:44] <Blindsite1> apparantly it didnt like the changes
[13:44] <wojox> !foo
[13:44] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: I totally fudged that addition to /etc/network/interfaces, it should be auto eth0 (new line) iface eth0 inet dhcp
[13:45] <Blindsite1> ok
[13:45] <Blindsite1> i'll go change it
[13:45] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: thats because I made a mistake, its early ><

[13:46] <Blindsite1> (just want to point it takes awhile between these missions because i have to get up and go to the comp, and sually have to come back a few times to ensure i get the right syntax)
[13:46] <furythor> rabbi1 what kind of problem you have ?
[13:46] <catzz> K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, brasero, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus-CD-Burner, GToaster, xcdroast which is best?
[13:46] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: I just hope we can get it working :)

[13:49] <Blindsite1> no lease
[13:49] <archboxman> gt 240 compatible with ubuntu ????
[13:49] <Blindsite1> restart worked but it didnt connect
[13:50] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: interesting, so it attempted to get an ip adress but failed? are their multiple ethernet ports on the computer?
[13:50] <SwedeMike> I've successfully gotten a gt210 to work with the latest nvidia stable drivers (downloaded directly from nvidia)
[13:50] <overmind> archboxman: Please, specify more :)
[13:50] <Xaero252> archboxman: all nvidia graphics cards are currently supported under the nvidia restricted drivers (if you download and install them from nvidia and NOT the ubuntu repository)
[13:50] <wojox> archboxman: nvidia yeah
[13:51] <archboxman> Geforce gt 240 eva 1gb nvidia card :)
[13:51] <overmind> archboxman: nVidia works fine in Ubuntu, they make drivers specially for Linux.
[13:52] <troythetechguy> using apt-get update, I noticed there is a package called mysql-common that needs updating.  Does this package mean I have mysql installed on my system?  I did a standard install of crunchbang and did not know mysql was part of the standard install.
[13:53] <archboxman> just making sure going to run it up on ArchLinux want a backup if Archlinux won't take it... :) later

[13:53] <twinforce> hey
[13:53] <Xaero252> archboxman: as long as you have the kernel source and such available for your arch install doing an nvidia driver install shouldn't screw anything up
[13:54] <fucnqshun> hi twinforce
[13:54] <Blindsite1> no just 1 ethernet port
[13:54] <twinforce> hey fucnqshun
[13:54] <archboxman> Xaero252: they run a full xorg.conf file no problem with kernel its a rolling distro

[13:55] <Troggie> Hi all, I wonder if someone can help me. Here goes. I just upgraded my Ubuntu 9.04 to Ubuntu 9.10 , the server is using hardware RAID 1. I get dropped to Busybox but when I type "a) fsck -a b) mount -a c_ CTRL + D" the server boots with GRUB 2. What can I do to recitfy this ??
[13:55] <Xaero252> archboxman: they have the nvidia-xconfig util, but I'm not certain if I remember running it breaking things or not running it breaking things >< at any rate you can always just re-run the install or backup xorg.conf
[13:55] <marcuy> Troggie, 9.10 comes with Grub2
[13:56] <marcuy> try to uninstall it and install grub 1
[13:56] <SwedeMike> marcuy: it doesn't go grub2 when doing an upgrade, normally (hasn't for me anyway)
[13:56] <twinforce> funcqshun: I believe that would be a hardware issue causing it to logout. I don't know for sure what it would be, but I would try reinstalling Ubuntu and see if that helps.  Theres no problem there
[13:56] <Troggie> it had Grub and i upgraded to Grub 2 does exactly the same thing
[13:57] <umang> Hi! Is there any way I can use a certain repository for only one package (with updates) without actually adding that repository to my sources? (e.g I wan foobar from backports, but everything else from the normal repos)
[13:57] <Blindsite1> ok
[13:57] <Blindsite1> i just went into my router
[13:57] <Blindsite1> an checked
[13:58] <Blindsite1> my routher sees my desktop
[13:58] <guntbert> !enter | Blindsite1
[13:58] <Blindsite1> but my desktop isnt pickingu p my router
[13:58] <Troggie> marcuy, it did the same thing with Grub and Grub 2. I went onto the net and it seems like there's either a problem with initfs or RAID 1 2nd HDD no having Grub installed
[13:58] <Guest50448> I am having an issue with my Thunderbird..  everytime I try to start it... it says thunderbird is already running.. not responding and need to close or restart the system...  I've restarted. and ps -A  and don't see any thunderbirds listed... any ideas?  ubuntu 9.10
[13:58] <Blindsite1> i keep annoying people.  I'm sorry
[13:59] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: okay now thats just freaking bizzare
[13:59] <Blindsite1> yeah
[13:59] <SwedeMike> Troggie: I thought you said hw raid1, why wouldn't second hd have the same information as the first?
[13:59] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: ignore fags like that that sit in here all day hassling people looking for help, you used the enter key like twice, so what?
[13:59] <Troggie> that's what the forums said. all i know is I have to type fsck -a and mount -a followed by CTRL + D to boot it
[14:00] <FiremanEd> !language
[14:00] <Kohar> Guest50448 open terminal do ps ax and check thunderbird
[14:00] <Blindsite1> im getting the feeling it has to do with  conflict of mac addresses
[14:00] <Blindsite1> theres 2 eth connections on my comp but only 1 eth port and the router is only picking up one
[14:01] <funqshun1> twinforce: are yo uhere
[14:01] <twinforce> funqshun1: yes
[14:01] <patriotaSJ> hi
[14:01] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: check the list of attached devices on your router to see if there are two identical mac adresses,
[14:01] <funqshun1> did you answer my question sorry i logged out
[14:01] <patriotaSJ> how can i find a ubuntu channel that speak spanish?
[14:01] <guntbert> !es | patriotaSJ
[14:01] <Blindsite1> that would be a no
[14:02] <LonelyDragon757> kohar I did the ps ax...  pretty sweet...    but don't see anything that sticks out as thunderbird
[14:02] <Blindsite1> they're all unique
[14:02] <patriotaSJ> thanks man
[14:02] <Threetimes> Hi, i'm getting this error when using DVDstyler: http://pastebin.org/91553
[14:02] <Troggie> marcuy, do u have any idea what could be the problem?
[14:02] <umang> Hi! Is there any way I can use a certain repository for only one package (with updates) without actually adding that repository to my sources? (e.g I wan foobar from backports, but everything else from the normal repos). (Is this a enough gap before repeating my question?)
[14:02] <Blindsite1> however the name for one is blank
[14:02] <neverAFK> is there way besides removing /etc/init.d/apache2 from that dir to keek it from auto starting on boot?
[14:02] <twinforce> funqshun1: Not on the forum, but here I did. I don't really know what is going on, but I have a feeling it is a hardware error
[14:02] <Blindsite1> but that could be my moms comp or this one for that matter
[14:03] <Threetimes> umang: you could download the .deb from packages.ubuntu.com
[14:03] <funqshun1> twinforce: what do you suggest i do?
[14:03] <twinforce> twinforce: Does your laptop make any weird noises when writing to the hard drive? This could be a tell-tale sign that you damaged your hard drive
[14:03] <umang> Threetimes: And then what about updates?
[14:03] <Blindsite1> scratch that, this one is labeled
[14:03] <funqshun1> twinforce: were you asking me? you put your own name there
[14:03] <Blindsite1> and unless mom is up extra early its probably not hers
[14:03] <Threetimes> umang: you will have to add a repo for it if you want automatic updates.
[14:03] <BluesKaj> neverAFK, check usr/bin and usr/sbin too
[14:03] <twinforce> funqshun1: sorry, my bad. It was for you
[14:03] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: I really have no idea at this point, like I say, networking gurus out there? anybody?
[14:04] <umang> Threetimes: So I cannot do it only for one package?
[14:04] <funqshun1> twinforce: no, no strange sounds
[14:04] <myk_robinson> morning.. In ubuntu 9.10, how do i edit my grub menu? Apparently it is no longer in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[14:04] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: we could try doing a static IP adress for that computer only.
[14:04] <funqshun1> twinforce: so theres no way to disable logout?
[14:04] <twinforce> funqshun1: ok. Do you have Windows on your thinkpad as well, or is it soley linux?
[14:04] <Threetimes> umang: you could install it, but not auto-update it. Maybe you could find a PPA for the package you're looking for
[14:04] <carbm2> myk_robinson,  /etc/default/grub ... or /etc/grub.d/
[14:04] <guntbert> Blindsite1: what is your problem?
[14:04] <carbm2> myk_robinson, then run update-grub
[14:04] <twinforce> funqshun1: Well I would Google "disable logout ubuntu"
[14:05] <Blindsite1> would that work
[14:05] <umang> Threetimes: OK. Thanks. :)
[14:05] <Threetimes> Hi, i'm getting this error when using DVDstyler: http://pastebin.org/91553
[14:05] <twinforce> but besides that I don't really know what to do, unless we found out what is triggering it
[14:05] <BluesKaj> !grub2 | myk_robinson
[14:05] <carbm2> myk_robinson, What are you trying to accomplish?
[14:05] <funqshun1> twinforce: thx :-)

[14:07] <myk_robinson> carbm2: i notice the entry for WIndows Vista (which is actually the Windows 7 recovery partition) is not listed on here, nor are the different kernel revisions. WHere can I change the name?
[14:08] <dsuch> umang: that's an interesting issue.. so how would it work, if 2 repos provide a package 'foo', you'd like to somehow give one precedence over another?
[14:08] <Kohar> LonelyDragon757 go to you home directory then .mozilla-thunderbird/some_director(like mscn5jo3.default) and check LOCK file if here move him somewhere and try run again
[14:08] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: I'm not certain that using a static ip adress will fix the problem, however, a static ip adress doesn't rely on DHCP or the router to obtain an ip adress
[14:08] <ikonia> Troggie: using a seperate /boot patition ?
[14:08] <Troggie> ikonia: no
[14:08] <BluesKaj>  myk_robinson err /etc/default/grub
[14:08] <myk_robinson> carbm2: I want to just boot straight to Ubuntu with no menu unless I press a key. Recommendations?
[14:08] <carbm2> myk_robinson, Grub2 is script based. The days of editing menu.lst are gone.  You edit that file and run update-grub
[14:08] <neverAFK> Pixelated: ./var/lib/update-rc.d ./usr/sbin/update-rc.d [which to modify?]
[14:08] <dsuch> umang: can you give me a real example? I'd like to try to figure it out, how to do it.
[14:08] <ikonia> Troggie: is grub set to boot of the meta device or the physical disk ?
[14:08] <Serpico> hi
[14:08] <hyperstream> !shoutcast
[14:08] <umang> dsuch: when I install, I do something like apt-get install foobar --repository="unstable"
[14:08] <carbm2> myk_robinson, The options are there... I'm not exactly sure which one it is though.
[14:08] <autoclesis> Are there any processors that are manifestly unfriendly to Ubuntu
[14:09] <pixelated> neverAFK, dont modify them. what i gave you was a command line
[14:09] <rabbi1> bazhang: i did reinstall, it din't ask me for anything, i did from synaptic manager

[14:09] <hyperstream> are there any music clients that can stream my live audio to a icecast2 server?
[14:09] <Troggie> ikonia: i presume the physical device. this has been a system from Ubuntu 8.10
[14:09] <BluesKaj> yeah carbm2 , I miss being able to edit the menu list directly
[14:09] <Blindsite1> ok
[14:09] <Blindsite1> heres a question
[14:09] <rabbi1> bazhang: even now its same prob, nothing is working
[14:09] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: yes?
[14:09] <Blindsite1> wouldn't i need all my information to make a static ip work
[14:09] <ikonia> Troggie: there should be zero problem with that at all,
[14:09] <dsuch> umang: and you'd like it be used for the updates as well, right?
[14:09] <Blindsite1> and my internet is still dependant on the router
[14:09] <umang> dsuch: yes.
[14:09] <carbm2> BluesKaj, I agree... but the power of doing it script wise is good... just hard to get used to.
[14:10] <umang> dsuch: e.g lintian, debhelper, etc
[14:10] <funqshun1> twinforce: nothing relevant to me shows up :-(
[14:10] <ikonia> Troggie: did you upgrade to grub2 when you upgraded, or leave it on grub2
[14:10] <ikonia> grub 1 sorry
[14:10] <BluesKaj> autoclesis, not that anyone has encountered so far
[14:10] <neverAFK> pixelated: okay. thanks for the help.
[14:10] <autoclesis> thanks blueskaj

[14:10] <Threetimes> hyperstream: try VLC
[14:10] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: nope, thats not quite how it works, it just manually tells the computer how to talk to the network, instead of getting the information from the router

[14:10] <rabbi1> any help here with rhythmplayer ?
[14:10] <ikonia> Troggie: .dev.sda1 pr /dev/sda1 ?

[14:11] <autoclesis> hold on, let me get the exact name
[14:11] <ikonia> Troggie: I suspect that's the problem, when grub2's been installed and it recreates the menu.list it's pointed it at the meta device
[14:11] <umang> dsuch: thanks, I'll read it now.
[14:11] <hyperstream> Threetimes, no option for icecast or shoutcast

[14:14] <BluesKaj> autoclesis, http://www.techeta.com/2010/01/intel-core-i3-530-offers-peppy-linux-performance.html
[14:14] <Blindsite1> this laptop here has a working connection

[14:14] <phpmonk> I have deleted files /etc/ssh, now even if i install ssh those files are no being installed, any way?
[14:14] <Blindsite1> so after that what do i need

[14:15] <mun> jrib, basically sends a message inside such notification when a condition is met.

[14:16] <Blindsite1> xaero?
[14:16] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: okay, when you go to edit connections, add a new connection, call it whatever you want, but make sure of the following: the ip adress should match all 3 of the first fields, and be close to the last number as possible (but not the same as any other computers on your network (ip adress conflicts are bad, and you need to make sure its in your routers subnet)) the subnet mask for your purposes should be <IP_ADDRESS>, and the De

[14:17] <funqshun1> hello is there anyway to disable logout altogether in karmic?
[14:17] <Blindsite1> its cool, continue
[14:17] <Tronx> how do i start a new terminal from a bash script ?
[14:17] <jrib> funqshun1: no idea but I would start by reading the two documents about locking down GNOME at library.gnome.org
[14:18] <Tronx> other than using gnome-terminal -e
[14:18] <Troggie> ikonia: this only happens on my RAID 1 server, my single HDD servers its cool
[14:18] <jrib> Troggie: why "other than"?
[14:18] <ikonia> Troggie: that would make sense
[14:18] <jrib> Tronx: why "other than"?
[14:18] <Tronx> jrib : because thats not going to work for me
[14:18] <jrib> Tronx: then you have to tell us why not.  Tell us what you actually want to accomplish
[14:18] <Troggie> ikonia: how so? what can i do to make it boot into the OS properly?
[14:18] <Threetimes> Hi, i'm getting this error when using DVDstyler: http://pastebin.org/91553. I think it is ffmpeg-related...

[14:19] <Tronx> jrib : i need to start a new terminal on maemo 5 that doesnt have gnome-terminal
[14:19] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: once you fill out the IP adress, dns mask, default gateway and at least 1 ip adress, click okay to save the connection and mark the new connection as the default connection, then try and connect to it (click the network manager, and then click the connection if it doesnt automatically try to connect)
[14:19] <jrib> Tronx: so use whatever terminal emulator it does have?
[14:19] <rabbi1> need help with audio in ubuntu 8.04, i use nVidia AMD 64x
[14:19] <heroin> Could someone help me get mono fixed

[14:20] <Xaero252> Blindsite1: in 9.10 you dont set it to default, just make sure connect automagically is checked
[14:20] <Tronx> jrib : i think its called xterminal

[14:20] <jrib> Tronx: probably xterm
[14:20] <zloog> Anyone have a recommendation for minimum system specs to decode HD video?
[14:20] <Tronx> jrib: but im not sure how to start it from command line
[14:20] <ikonia> Troggie: check where it's looking for a.) the boot info (kernel etc) b.) it's root file system
[14:20] <umang> dsuch: found this: http://jaqque.sbih.org/kplug/apt-pinning.html
[14:20] <Tronx> jrib : no
[14:21] <Dr_Willis> zloog:  my netbook can do it. but depending on a codec it can give it a workout
