[15:46] <Assid> but the best way to learn anything is from what other people are doing
[15:46] <Doc0C> Lungan  this happens right after grub comes up?
[15:46] <Lungan> Doc0C, Exakt
[15:46] <rzx237> sorry, I'm suggesting wrong answer..
[15:47] <Pici> Assid: Oh, thats fine too, I didn't mean to imply that you can't watch and learn and help.
[15:47] <Doc0C> Lungan  ok, seems like a grub misconfiguration
[15:47] <rzx237> hardhead: did you try gparted?
[15:47] <Assid> err does ubuntu have its OWN remote management tool like teamviewer ?
[15:47] <Lungan> Doc0C, Using live cd ATM so i can reach the hdd (sda1), how do i reconfigure grub then?
[15:47]  * Assid is thinking maybe it should consider making one
[15:47] <BiPolah> Assid: It has remote desktop viewer built in on 10.10 at least
[15:48] <hardhead> yes and it wont let me unmount the main partition until I unmount the other three

[15:48] <ZipTye> So i was hoping someone could give me some advice. I am looking to pick up a new desktop this weekend a retail box and have been looking at the HP Pavilion Desktop P6754Y AMD Athlon II X4 640 with built in wifi and the Gateway DX4850-27e with an Intel Core i5-2300 Processor
[15:48] <Assid> BiPolah, yes, but that wont bypass firewall issues.. im just thinking from a "adoptive" strategy
[15:48] <hardhead> rzx237: yes and it wont let me unmount the main partition until I unmount the other three
[15:48] <Homefix> help with compiling?
[15:49] <BiPolah> Assid: Depends which port you're using etc. That's the point a firewall, to stop unauthorised connections.
[15:49] <milamber> hardhead: just caught the tail end of your convo, but the command is umount not unmount iirc
[15:49] <Assid> imagine people talking to their cuz's and uncles and telling them, "you know what.. im tired of helping you and your virus issues.. get a mac or linux"
[15:49] <ZipTye> does anyone have any experience running Ubuntu on anything like these or an HP desktop with built in wireless did it work out of the box, not sure of the wireless chip
[15:49] <hardhead> milamber: Thank you
[15:49] <Assid> BiPolah, its actually how i got 4 people onto a mac.. cause i told them to stop bugging me
 imagine people talking to their cuz's and uncles and telling them, "you know what.. im tired of helping you and your virus issues.. get a mac or linux"  <--- so tempting
[15:50] <Doc0C> It is pointing to the wrong place to find the kernel image and ramdisk, I am guessing
[15:50] <intel352> hey guys, where does Network Manager store config information for wireless networks?
[15:50] <creds> hi
[15:50] <ecanto> hello
[15:50] <creds> when i turn my PC on i can see login-monit in gnome
[15:50] <Assid> ^Phantom^ why?
[15:51] <creds> how can i change it to terminal-login
[15:51] <sjm> howdy
[15:51] <^Phantom^> Assid, dunno
[15:51] <ecanto> i am use laptop dell inspiron, button XF86Eject not working, somebody help?
[15:51] <^Phantom^> actually the people i'm thinking of shouldn't have any electronic devices at all
[15:51] <sjm> how do I report a bug for ubuntu?
[15:51] <Assid> ^Phantom^, well now you know how i feel.. its even a mirable i can get them to load teamviewer
[15:52] <creds> anyone could help me please?
[15:52] <^Phantom^> these people can't update a ps3
[15:52] <intel352> hey guys, where does Network Manager store config information for wireless networks?
[15:52] <hardhead> milamber:what do I type after iirc
[15:52] <^Phantom^> hell they can't follow instructions on the screen
[15:52] <Assid> yeah
[15:52] <Homefix> im doing this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932754 and i cant get upstart to run ( i believe because im in a chroot) but i have this workaround:http://gyp.blogs.balabit.com/2011/01/using-upstart-in-a-chroot/.....my question is... standing by....
[15:52] <milamber> hardhead: iirc means if i remember correctly, the unmount command isn't "unmount" it is "umount"
[15:53] <dasbox> hello
[15:53] <Assid> well.. what im getting at is.. perhaps we can have a ubuntu based teamviewer service
[15:53] <dasbox> help
[15:53] <dasbox> hello friends
[15:53] <shaula> I have installed ubuntu 10.10 on virtualbox 3.2.8 which is again working on ubuntu 10.10, the resolution of my ubuntu on virtual box cannot go larger than 800x600 thought the guest addons is installed, any idea how can I improve my resolution on virtualbox?
[15:53] <milamber> !bug | sjm

[15:54] <dasbox> can any one tell how to make xubuntu shutdown on power key press
[15:54] <sjm> milamber, thanks
[15:54] <Djoef> Ok I created a swap area of 2GB, then a Ext4 journaling system? of 28GB for the installation ? Should I enter something for mount point or do I leave this empty ?
[15:54] <milamber> ZipTye: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesDesktopsHp
[15:54] <Djoef> And finally, what should I choose for the boot loader ?
[15:55] <dasbox> hello
[15:55] <creds> edwardteach, I set quota on my account and when I'm trying to log in via gnome I see warning that I should remove some files (to do it i gotta login via terminal)
[15:55] <dasbox> friends any one?
[15:55] <creds> but i don't know how to login via terminal (how to display terminal)
[15:56] <uRock> Applications> Accessories> Terminal
[15:56] <Doc0C> Lungan  you should be able to simply either choose an older grub config at the grub prompt, or point it to the correct kernel, and get booted
[15:56] <milamber> creds: ctrl + alt + f1 will bring you to a terminal, you can also go to applications >> accessories >> terminal if you login via the gui
[15:56] <StevenTyler> how do you mount an iso to /cdrom/ in ubuntu netbook?
[15:56] <Lungan> DocOC, When im in live cd and write "grub" in terminal it says its not installed?
[15:57] <pareli> is it possible to use conky-colors with conky and make it transparent?
[15:57] <creds> ok, thanks a lot
[15:57] <StevenTyler> it's asking me to insert cd, all i can do is mount the iso somehow
[15:57] <adub__> having difficulty getting to hear sound on my computer not sure whats causing it
[15:57] <DocOC> Lungan  not in live cd,
[15:57] <uRock> Why do people offer ctrl alt F1 when you have to restart to get out of it?
[15:57] <Lungan> DocOC, How then?
[15:57] <popey> uRock: you dont
[15:57] <DocOC> When you get the grub promote during normal boot
[15:58] <antivirtel> hi!
[15:58] <popey> uRock: you can CTRL+ALT+F7
[15:58] <DocOC> Prompt
[15:58] <adub__> when i play a sound file with aplay i can see in a settings menu where it is playing yet i dont hear antyhing
[15:58] <hatchetjack> is there a way to get zeroconf to stop making me use only the hostname of the local domain?
[15:58] <spmccann> popey:  you bet me to it !
[15:58] <uRock> popey, I have tried that recently, didn't work
[15:58] <popey> adub__: alsamixer, turn up the volume and unmute?
[15:58] <rzx237> StevenTyler: do you mean sudo mount -o loop file.iso /cdrom
[15:58] <nostard_> i have problems with preview-latex in Emacs =/
[15:58] <hatchetjack> for example I have to use wiki instead of the wiki.domain.local
[15:58] <popey> uRock: maybe F8, its not always on 7
[15:58] <Lungan> DocOC, Im pretty noob, how should i do when i come to the grub meny?
[15:58] <hatchetjack> it's screwing up page links and stuff
[15:58] <milamber> uRock: what kind of keyboard?
[15:58] <Atlantic777> how to open an X dialog from shell with default packages installed?
[15:59] <adub__> popey yes they are all spifs 1-4 are set to 00
[15:59] <StevenTyler> I tried that, not working. Let me try again.
[15:59] <uRock> why not recommend ctrl alt f2, then the user can easily close it
[15:59] <adub__> this is through hdmi i cant get my analog sound working either but i dont care about that atm i really would rather use my hdmi sound
[15:59] <DocOC> Just usr arrows to navigate to a coherent boot option
[15:59] <uRock> milamber, MS keyboard
[15:59] <Lungan> DocOC, But all of them gives the samer error?
[16:00] <osmosis_paul> somebody know if there are some diferent to execute an script manually to do it by cron???
[16:00] <DocOC> Different, not coherent
[16:00] <osmosis_paul> in command line works but by cron dont do it the svn checkout
[16:00] <Djoef> Ok, one question at the time : 1) Should I use ext4 for ubuntu 10.10 installation ?
[16:00] <Lungan> DocOC, ?
[16:00] <Djoef> as logical drive
[16:00] <uRock> Djoef, yes
[16:00] <milamber> uRock: is there an f lock button?
[16:01] <DocOC> You have tried them all?
[16:01] <uRock> milamber, no
[16:01] <StevenTyler> getting "Failed to fetch cdrom"
[16:01] <adub__> on the monitor im using i have them selected to use internal speakers the monitor i have the hdmi cable hooked to
[16:01] <StevenTyler> I am trying to install some drivers
[16:01] <Zoffix> Hey. I'm having trouble installing zlib1g-dev... Synaptic tells me that the file's not found. I tried downloading the package manually (zlib1g-dev_<IP_ADDRESS>.dfsg-3ubuntu1_amd64.deb), but when I try to install it, it tells me "Sorry, Zlib's not available for amd64".. I REALLY need to have this installed. Any suggestions on how to force it to be?
[16:01] <antivirtel> How can I finalize(close) a data DVD? I burnt it with nero(in win). Can I do it with Brasero(or GnomeBaker)?
[16:01] <Djoef> uRock, should I set the mount point ? or can this stay empty ?
[16:01] <Lungan> DocOC, Having 7 different kernels, should I try all of them? And if none of them works?
[16:02] <hardhead> OK last question - would I be able to install UBUNTU SERVER on the same hard drive along with UBUNTU 10 by simply installing from CD-ROM or will somthing get ereased?
[16:02] <uRock> djoare you installing Ubuntu?
[16:02] <milamber> uRock: you should probably file a bug then
[16:02] <StevenTyler> the mount command works without any errors
[16:02] <raido> osmosis_paul: in the crontab, are you placing the full path to the command?
[16:02] <Djoef> uRock, yes, next to a windows partition and data partition
[16:02] <osmosis_paul> yes
[16:02] <StevenTyler> but system can't find it
[16:02] <milamber> !who | StevenTyler
[16:02] <osmosis_paul> and it is more i have 4 scipts, 3 are running and the last one only part of it
[16:02] <uRock> djoare, then you will need the swap and "/" partitions
[16:03] <antivirtel> Hi How can I finalize(close) a data DVD? I burnt it with nero(in win). Can I do it with Brasero(or GnomeBaker)?
[16:03] <Djoef> uRock, I created a swap partition of 2GB, but left the mount point empty
[16:03] <Frenk> Hey, I have a question. For some reason I can not open a website hosted on a specific port. My iptables are clean and netstat shows that the service is listening. http://paste.ubuntu.com/568278/ Anyone an idea?
[16:03] <Djoef> uRock, so I need to change that ?
[16:03] <StevenTyler> rzx237, getting "Failed to fetch cdrom"
[16:03] <osmosis_paul> raido, there's some limitation in cron to use subversion program?? because it is there where dont do anything
[16:03] <rzx237> hardhead: if you install it in another partition it will be ok
[16:03] <DocOC> Lungan  try them all, if none works, you will need to use grub command line options to point to a working kernel and ram disk
[16:03] <Lungan> DocOC, And how do I do that? Because non of them seem to work
[16:03] <rzx237> StevenTyler: no idea..
[16:03] <Djoef> ah no, for a swap partition you cannot set a mount point
[16:03] <Djoef> so thats ok
[16:03] <uRock> they can be logical or primary, Djoef, no mount pount needed for swap, just for the ext4
[16:04] <raido> osmosis_paul: not that I know of, is your svn repo local or remote
[16:04] <Djoef> Ok, so for the EXT4 I set the mount point to "/"
[16:04] <osmosis_paul> remote
[16:04] <uRock> si senior Djoef
[16:04] <raido> osmosis_paul: how are you authenticating
[16:04] <osmosis_paul> raido, but if i execute my script manually works
[16:04] <hardhead> rzx237: thats my problem I cant get anything to unmount so I can create a partition to throw it into
[16:04] <milamber> uRock: does the windows key + f7 work?
[16:04] <Djoef> uRock, gracias :)
[16:04] <ZipTye> Looked over that page, thanks milamber
[16:04] <osmosis_paul> raido,  if execute manually works/ with login/password
[16:04] <uRock> milamber, not sure, haven't tried
[16:05] <Djoef> Then the last question : Where should the boot loader point to ?
[16:05] <DocOC> Lungan  I do not know off the top of my head, and I am irving from my phone, so a bit tough to read man pages, but the man page will tell you
[16:05] <osmosis_paul> raido, the point is that is a huge download at least the first time
[16:05] <monge> Hey guys, I'd like to be able to read and write files in a specific directory, but the access is set to root +rwx only. How do I use the chmod command to give my user priviliges to read and write?
[16:05] <Lungan> DocOC, OH, okey thank you
[16:05] <DocOC> Irc'ing, not irving
[16:05] <uRock> Djoef, wherever the Wondows MBR is, usually sda
[16:05] <raido> osmosis_paul: well, how does he auth work under cron, doenst it need to be interactive
[16:05] <rzx237> hardhead: boot using live cd can help you doing partitioning
[16:05] <Djoef> uRock, so the disk as a whole or the windows parttition ?
[16:06] <osmosis_paul> raido, i specify in the query --username --password
[16:06] <uRock> Let the installer decide Djoef
[16:06] <hardhead> rzx237: even if I already have UBUNTU as MY OS?
[16:06] <osmosis_paul> raido, svn checkout $SVN_MACHINE $SOURCE_BACKUP --username $LOGIN --password $PASSWORD
[16:06] <DMDean> does anyone know how to strip the audio from a video without ffmpeg?
[16:06] <rzx237> hardhead: yes, you can do resize partition
[16:06] <Djoef> well it fills in the disk as a whole as standard, but I don't know if that is because its the first option, or because it decided that
[16:07] <raido> osmosis_paul: hmmmm, so, if you copy and paste the exact command from the crontab to the command line it will run properly?
[16:07] <Djoef> so I can choose the disk as a whole, the windows partition, data, swap or ext4
[16:07] <milamber> DMDean: handbrake might do what you are looking for? i'm not sure what the backend is though.
[16:07] <Djoef> for the record : I would like to have a menu to choose between linux and windows on startup, but that was clear i guess ;)
[16:08] <osmosis_paul> raido, error because i dont specify sudo, but asume that cron do it everything as root
[16:08] <raido> whos crontab are you using
[16:09] <osmosis_paul> ubuntut crontab of ubuntu
[16:09] <milamber> DMDean: i have also had quite a bit of luck w/ k9copy
[16:09] <raido> osmosis_paul: what user
[16:09] <osmosis_paul> raido,  what do you mean?
[16:09] <MeanEYE> Hahah, I had to share this with you. I've been digging around the net and found this gem: "Linux is a free open-source operating on Unix. It's different then the Windows and Mac OSX operating system because it is freely distributed."
[16:09] <raido> osmosis_paul: all users have their own crontab
[16:09] <g_0_0> DMDean, have you tried -an with ffmpeg ?
[16:10] <osmosis_paul> raido, is the same if i edit the /etc/crontab there you can specify the user and even putting as root does not works, i try the two ways
[16:10] <DMDean> g_0_0, yea
[16:10] <xangua> !ot | MeanEYE
[16:10] <raido> osmosis_paul: if the command needs SU privelages then use roots crontab
[16:10] <osmosis_paul> this way and the other one sudo crontab -e
[16:10] <magn3ts> How the hell do I turn off overtype in Linux on a mac keyboard?
[16:10] <magn3ts> This is a nightmare
[16:10] <osmosis_paul> and there edtinf there the tasks
[16:10] <MeanEYE> xangua, yes yes I know...
[16:10] <zachaysan> hey everyone, I'm looking for help  with fixing my wireless network since I made the upgrade (via complete reformat/reinstall) from 9.04 to 10.10 (both netbook editions of Ubuntu). My wired network works just fine, but I can't seem to get a list of wireless networks. Is this the right place to ask, or is there another, better place to do so?
[16:10] <DMDean> g_0_0, it compressed the video while I was doing it or whatever and made the quality crap
[16:10] <Homefix> recommend a channel for a compiling question that doesnt require an invite?
[16:11] <osmosis_paul> raido, yes and i can see that all the job of the other script was doing as root
[16:11] <xangua> !register | Homefix
[16:11] <Gnea> magn3ts: what do you mean by 'overtype'? and please can the language...
[16:11] <magn3ts> fn+enter
[16:11] <milamber> Homefix: if you are looking for help on how to compile something on ubuntu, just ask the question. if anyone here can help you they will, otherwise we can probably point you in the right direction.
[16:11] <edwardteach> DMDean,   ffmpeg  -i somefile.mp4 -an somefile-2.mp4
[16:11] <raido> os, so, you are root when you run crontab -e
[16:11] <magn3ts> Gnea, I meant Insert mode
[16:12] <Gnea> magn3ts: again, that's not very clear. insert mode works in vim.
[16:12] <mage3070> zachaysan - hello
[16:12] <zachaysan> hi mage
[16:12] <g_0_0> DMDean, just try - ffmpeg -i infile.avi -an -o outfile.avi
[16:12] <KB1JWQ> magn3ts: It's software dependant.
[16:12] <magn3ts> Gnea, I don't really know how else to explain overtype|insert mode. There's no other word for. It's what happens when you press the "Insert" key.
[16:12] <osmosis_paul> raido, maybe because is a very huge download he was mading and dont show any folder until he finish. Yes i use sudo with the command. Befopre i made a ps aux | grep cron and i have three process counting the grep, it is normal ??
[16:13] <computer_>  whats the netbook version of ubuntu OS called again?
[16:13] <Homefix> am i registered now?
[16:13] <magn3ts> KB1JWQ: no, its Mac specific, I mean, maybe GNOME specific, but it's the same regardless of what editor I'm in.
[16:13] <osmosis_paul> raido, normaly when i execute the checkout expend 10 minutes in download everything
[16:13] <xangua> computer_: netbook edition...
[16:13] <computer_> xangua: kool thanks im getting it now
[16:13] <mage3070> zachaysan - if I were you I would do a fresh install of 10.10 instead of the upgrade
[16:13] <sgerbino> anyone have some experience with svn and eclipse that could help me out?
[16:13] <zachaysan> mage3070 - I did so
[16:14] <mage3070> what hardware?
[16:14] <androidbruce> could anyone let me know when I would need to use ./foo.bin versus using bash ./foo.xxx
[16:14] <zachaysan> mage3070 - asus eeepc (second gen, IIRC)
[16:14] <karmic-koala> hi all my system froze 7 times today, each time the ALT+SYSRQ .... didn't work. which section of the log file should i check to find out what's causing my sys to freeze? I am looking at 'messages' section of my log but nothing suspicious there, any ideas?
[16:14] <Gnea> magn3ts: when I press the 'insert' key on my keyboard, typing over left-arrowed text overwrites it, like it should, but if I press 'insert' again, it appends the text in place. is that what you mean?
[16:14] <raido> osmosis_paul: I dont think so
[16:14] <nena> Hi. I need help. I need to have my computer connected to Internet for the first time (I suppose I have to configure the connection..) Can someone help me?
[16:14] <mage3070> do you know the ethernet card?
[16:14] <osmosis_paul> raido, then i dont understand
[16:15] <Toph> in Ubuntu 10.10, where do I find all my system info, processor, storage, etc?
[16:15] <raido> osmosis_paul: when you ran the exact command from the crontab on the command line you got a permissions error, right?
[16:15] <researcher1> when I run the command "sh hplip-3.11.1.run" everything is OK. except I get "No network" Error. Im working  this doc. http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/install/install/index.html
[16:15] <zachaysan> mage3070 - no, but is there a way I can check? ifconfig? (networking noob speaking)
[16:15] <osmosis_paul> if i dont sudo yes
[16:15] <raido> osmosis_paul: oh
[16:16] <osmosis_paul> oh whayt? cron works as root
[16:16] <raido> osmosis_paul: but with sudo it runs fine
[16:16] <androidbruce> Toph, you can go to System-Administration-System Monitor as a starting place
[16:16] <researcher1> how to creat a root user on Ubuntu?
[16:16] <mage3070> yes there is - It's a short terminal command that i can't quite remember now - it starts with ip
[16:16] <osmosis_paul> raido, so is the same that made sudo manually
[16:16] <androidbruce> Toph, you can also "cat /proc/cpuinfo
[16:16] <raido> osmosis_paul: ?
[16:16] <osmosis_paul> raido,  is like i made su and then execute the command without sudo
[16:17] <androidbruce> researcher1, sudo adduser
[16:17] <osmosis_paul> cron is root user
[16:17] <Toph> androidbruce,,, thanks
[16:17] <osmosis_paul> raido, so he dont need sudo
[16:17] <zachaysan> mage3070 - ok let me google for it and get back to you
[16:17] <computer_> ehh its not working xangua lol,
[16:17] <researcher1> androidbruce: whats the complete command
[16:17] <magn3ts> Gnea, yes, indeedy. The problem is, Mac keyboards lack that button.
[16:17] <raido> you dont need to add sudo to the command in the crontab. You are using roots crontab
[16:17] <androidbruce> researcher1, do you already have access to the root user and want to create another user/
[16:17] <magn3ts> For some reason the the Apple Keyboard ubuntu wiki page doesn't rank very highly.
[16:18] <osmosis_paul> raido,  i dont add it
[16:18] <researcher1> androidbruce: yes I do have

[16:18] <computer_> how do I download 'netbook' and boot up into kit
[16:18] <researcher1> androidbruce: I want to creat a user by the name root with all root priveleges
[16:18] <mage3070> it's lspci
[16:19] <raido> researcher1: already there
[16:19] <osmosis_paul> raido,  that's why if i copy the exact line from cron and execute in command line does not works
[16:19] <g_0_0> DMDean, sorry the -o is a mistake just remove it
[16:19] <osmosis_paul> becuase i'm ubuntu user
[16:19] <raido> os
[16:19] <androidbruce> researcher1, in a default install with ubuntu root is preinstalled
[16:19] <androidbruce> and the password for root is the password for the default user you created
[16:19] <researcher1> androidbruce: but the username is not root.I want username to be root
[16:19] <zachaysan> mage3070 - ok, I ran both lspci and lsusb
[16:19] <DMDean> g_0_0, ok it worked thanks :D
[16:19] <raido> osmosis_paul: you got me, I cant imaging why you are having trouble
[16:20] <androidbruce> researcher1, username root is there
[16:20] <g_0_0> DMDean, you're welcome
[16:20] <androidbruce> researcher1, right now if you do "sudo su"
[16:20] <androidbruce> then enter your sudo password
[16:20] <androidbruce> you will be the root user

[16:20] <jenka> Hi! Can anyone help me with citadel. If I use multiple domain names some mail I sent from the server is placed in the junk mail on the on the recievers client. But if I only got 1 domain under "local host aliases" Then it works fine. Pls help!! :)
[16:21] <geekbri> sdferfx: the same way you would add any other keypair... just cat their_public_key > authorized_keys
[16:21] <geekbri> in the .ssh of the user you want them to connect as
[16:21] <Homefix> REGISTERED!
[16:21] <sdferfx> thanks geekbri, that's what I thought.
[16:23] <mtkorb>  I'm trying to build a device driver I downloaded (which required me to install gcc), and when I run make, I get the error "expected ')' before string constant." The line in question is

[16:25] <jukebox> i need to shut down my xubuntu just by pressing power button
[16:25] <drc> jukebox: you mean you WANT to or HAVE to?
[16:25] <jukebox> have to
[16:26] <jukebox> no i mean all time i need that
[16:26] <drexl> jukebox: check your bios and make sure power management is enabled
[16:26] <jukebox> ya
[16:26] <Homefix> Im not a total noob, but i dont understand how to compile this:(at the bottom) "http://blogs.balabit.com/2011/01/21/using-upstart-in-a-chroot/"   i dont understand help? ( ihave used makefile to compile darwinstreamingserver)
[16:26] <jukebox> drexl :when i press it goes log out
[16:27] <jukebox> i want to shut down the box
[16:27] <teweWork> i use ubuntu 10.04, if i accidentally run out of ram my computer hangs, even the mouse doesn't move, it takes 5 mins to get to the console and another 5 mins to kill an app to free some memory and i have 4GB swap and the max usage is ~100MB, any idea to solve this issue?
[16:27] <drexl> jukebox: acpi may be the issue
[16:27] <raido> teweWork: how much ram do you have
[16:28] <teweWork> raido: 4GB
[16:28] <xangua> jukebox: just change the preferences
[16:28] <Jeruvy> teweWork: 32bit or 64bit?
[16:28] <raido> teweWork: Is it possible you have some defective ram?
[16:28] <teweWork> Jeruvy: 64bit
[16:28] <pareli> Does conky-colors override all settings in original conky?
[16:28] <drc> jukebox: what drexl said or maybe lok at PowerManagement Preferences>General
[16:28] <jukebox> i want to configure it how could
[16:28] <xangua> jukebox: a long time since i used xfce, you can try on #xubuntu or #xfce
[16:28] <jukebox> i am in xubuntu
[16:29] <Jeruvy> teweWork: or it could be swap/hard disk issues.  Try reducing or eliminating swap
[16:29] <teweWork> raido: i don't think so, it only happens when i use 100% ram, and in windows it didn't happen
[16:29] <jukebox> ya thanks i got it
[16:29] <jukebox> friends
[16:29] <jukebox> thanks to all
[16:29] <teweWork> Jeruvy: swap was 256MB i raised it because of this issue :)
[16:30] <Jeruvy> teweWork: well if it didn't work, try my suggestion.
[16:31] <sisif> Hello guys, quick question: given a PC with two Bluetooth adaptors, how can I specify which device connects to which BT dongle ?
[16:31] <raido> teweWork: is there a specific app that uses all that ram?
[16:31] <teweWork> raido: no, it just happens when i run out of it, ap doesn't matter
[16:31] <jukebox> what are all the tweaks i could do to make boot faster
[16:32] <raido> teweWork:do you monitor whn this happens to see if the swap is actually being used
[16:32] <jukebox> hello
[16:32] <gueusuario> mostaganem
[16:32] <jukebox> help me?
[16:32] <researcher1> I can connect to network when using  apt-get install but find an error  "No network" when worked according to this http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/install/install/index.html
[16:32] <teweWork> raido: as i said the swap is not used much, 100MB of 4GB, but i do not monitor it
[16:33] <tomasm-> how do i get the ubuntu ISO image burned to a USB stick when I'm running a fedora system (ie something command line)? fedora's usb creator program doesnt work with ubuntu images...
[16:33] <drexl> jukebox: you could over clock your cpu by doing a bios upgrade
[16:33] <jukebox> drexl: thats ok
[16:33] <jukebox> i seen some thing called warp2
[16:33] <Jeruvy> tomasm-: you could boot to livecd, then build the usb.
[16:34] <darksifer> hi everyone. i get incorrect password even if i entered correct password for Unlock Login Keyring??? i cant access ubuntu one
[16:34] <tomasm-> Jeruvy, you mean i have to burn a CD no matter what?
[16:34] <jukebox> which could make a snap shot of ram to make boot faster
[16:34] <darksifer> can someone tell me how to sort this problem?
[16:34] <Jeruvy> tomasm-: or you could use vbox/qemu to boot the image in fedora..
[16:34] <jukebox> drexl,: i would like to reduce the service at start up
[16:35] <tomasm-> Jeruvy, ah! thx
[16:35] <movx> have an issue with dpkg, 10.04 does not update, nor does it install any new package from terminal or GUI http://paste.ubuntu.com/568292/

[16:35] <Nikkos> hello everyone
[16:35] <Rav3n> hello
[16:35] <viliny> so, anyone had any luck running minecraft in 64 ubuntu?
[16:36] <jukebox> hello :drexl ?
[16:36] <drexl> jukebox: I installed lubuntu and i boots in like 40 sec it has minimal scripts loading
[16:36] <Nikkos> i got my i250 canon printer working but if i print from openoffice the file appears in the print queue but it dissapears immediateley. Any help?
[16:37] <Nikkos> if i print with firefox it works
[16:37] <jukebox> drexl: i am using this os for my jukbox thats why i asked so
[16:37] <g_0_0> darksifer, did you change your logon password
[16:37] <raido> teweWork: Well, thing I suggest is that you run memtest anyway, I have seen bad ram act badly under certain situations only. Also, you could try moving the swap to another drive or location on the disk in cas you have a bad section of that hard drive
[16:37] <jukebox> i am using ubuntu studio as my main os
[16:37] <darksifer> @g_0_0: No. i didnt changed
[16:37] <Homefix> need help here: "http://blogs.balabit.com/2011/01/21/using-upstart-in-a-chroot/" (at the bottom) any direction,how to  compile a new start-stop-daemon with the patch added that is available below (the “dpkg” source package provides start-stop-daemon)
[16:37] <Nikkos> anyone can help me?
[16:38] <jukebox> but i am using this box as my music box
[16:38] <teweWork> raido: one thing i forgot, i use wubi, and virtual drive for swap also, could it be the problem?
[16:38] <viliny> im sorry, but i just started empathy for the first time and it logged into my msn account automatically. this is a fresh installation of ubuntu... what the hell?
[16:38] <jukebox> so i need to boot its a little faster
[16:38] <raido> teweWork: sure, but I have no experience with that.
[16:39] <jrib> viliny: maybe it imported your windows settings?
[16:39] <viliny> bit freak jrib
[16:39] <viliny> bit freaky*
[16:39] <jukebox> drexl: whats your command which version could boot faster
[16:39] <drc> viliny: you didn't have to even create the account in empathy?
[16:40] <viliny> nope
[16:40] <viliny> and this is on a freshly formatted drive
[16:40] <darksifer> g_0_0: No, i didnt change the password. it is the same as the one i used to login the computer
[16:40] <drexl> jukebox: lubuntu 10.10
[16:40] <drc> viliny: gremlins :)
[16:40] <jukebox> ok thanks drexl
[16:40] <jukebox> drexl, : lubuntu use which desktop?
[16:41] <viliny> spooky excrement right there
[16:41] <drexl> jukebox: good for old computers like mine, make everything rreally snappy it uses lxde
[16:41] <g_0_0> darksifer, type alt f2 then seahorse and change your password in the password tab - right click password login
[16:41] <jukebox> ok

[16:42] <jukebox> which i wold like to make a music box
[16:42] <stickjr25> i recently installed ubuntu and it says my monitor is out of range, how can i fix this? no one on the beginners chat was talking....
[16:42] <movx> i have several updates for 10.04 older images can't be removed, the dpkg system is complely broken
[16:42] <drexl> there is a major bug in it but I know how to fix it, just copy this and save it, removeremoving quiet splash from the grub.cfg file eliminated the error.
[16:43] <drexl> jukebox: there is a major bug in it but I know how to fix it, just copy this and save  it, removeremoving quiet splash from the grub.cfg file eliminated the error.
[16:43] <darksifer> g_0_0: Thanks, i am stupid. my mistake
[16:43] <cntb> hi is hardware auto detection in 10.10 ignoring fdi files so that is the reason no hal under etc?

[16:43] <jukebox> drexl: whats that
[16:43] <drexl> jukebox: (process:235): GlibWarning **: get pwuid_r() failed due to unknown user id (0)
[16:43] <viliny> drc, it's okay if it works like that, just hella weird is all :D
[16:43] <stickjr25> drex1- is that response directed towards me?
[16:43] <drexl> jukebox: it's aknown bug
[16:44] <jrib> !hal  | cntb
[16:44] <jukebox> ooh got it
[16:44] <jrib> depreciated? 0_o
[16:44] <BluesKaj> movx, have you tried: sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a   ?
[16:44] <drc> viliny: OK...but I bet it spooked you, didn't it?
[16:44] <jrib> !hal =~ s/depreciated/deprecated/
[16:44] <movx> BluesKaj, will try now
[16:44] <jukebox> drexl: got it
[16:45] <viliny> drc, yes :)
[16:45] <stickjr25> i recently installed ubuntu and it says my monitor is out of range, how can i fix this? my monitor is connected via HDMI
[16:45] <drexl> jukebox: other than that I luv this new system
[16:45] <jukebox> drexl: thanks for your help
[16:46] <drexl> jukebox: moo..
[16:46] <jukebox> drexl: i am using remuco to control my audacios and totem
[16:46] <jukebox> so on startup i run both and use whole box as a music box
[16:47] <drc> viliny: had you used any other messanging app (pigin, etc)?
[16:47] <cthuljew> Anyone know where I can find out about sound problems in VLC in 10.10?
[16:47] <viliny> drc, not that i know of, no... pidgin isn't even installed
[16:47] <muneeb_> hi! is it ok to delete .xsession-errors.old [8GB]... it just appeared now in my home folder..
[16:47] <cthuljew> Been googling for days with no luck.
[16:48] <drc> ok, just wondering if it had imported settings automagically
[16:48] <soreau> muneeb_: Yes
[16:48] <muneeb_> ok thanks soreau but why it was created?
[16:48] <thrope> any tips for completing an interrupted upgrade (hard reboot)... dpkg --configure -a seems to be continuing the package installs, but is there anything to do to ensure the "Cleaning up" step of the dist-upgrade installer completes?
[16:49] <BluesKaj> stickjr25, which graphics card , you may need to enable the recommended driver in admin/ HW
[16:49] <soreau> muneeb_: X creates .xsession-errors. No idea why it's being backed up
[16:49] <muneeb_> soreau, ok fine.. i'll search for it..
[16:50] <drPoO> how do I kill gnome from the command line?
[16:50] <movx> BluesKaj, same problem after trying out the commands http://paste.ubuntu.com/568304/
[16:50] <jatt> killall -9 gnome-session
[16:50] <RootChaos> i have ubuntu 8.04LTS running on a server and need to upgrade squid to a later version (not included in the current apt-get upgrade). whats the best way to do this upgrade ?
[16:50] <soreau> drPoO: You can restart gdm with service gdm restart
[16:51] <xangua> RootChaos: upgrade to lucid, compile
[16:51] <whisperkiller> ok i am really frustrated now....
[16:51] <whisperkiller> i installed 10.10 and my wireless was disabled
[16:51] <soreau> RootChaos: Which version of squid do you need?
[16:51] <movx> BluesKaj,  the terminal took the commands and immediately retruned to prompt Is that the way the commands are supposed to work?
[16:52] <whisperkiller> and then i installed 10.4 and its still disabled
[16:52] <whisperkiller> what do i need to do to fix this
[16:52] <soreau> movx: Yes, no output generally means success
[16:52] <Djoef> Hm, should the bootloader be linked to the hdd as a whole /dev/sda or to the microsoft partition /dev/sda1 ( eg such that I can choose which os to start)
[16:52] <soreau> whisperkiller: Which wifi chip is it?
[16:52] <whisperkiller> the wireless originally worked with the live cd
[16:52] <RootChaos> xangua : i'm scared to do the distro upgrade remotely. I have done this once before but the upgrade didnt go smooth, resulted in me driving all the way to the server to re-install...
[16:53] <RootChaos> soreau, 2.7stable3 or >
[16:53] <whisperkiller> i cant remember...whats the ls command
[16:53] <soreau> whisperkiller: lspci
[16:53] <Jordan_U> Djoef: /dev/sda, installing to a partition requires the use of blocklists pointing to a file on a filesystem, which is not reliable.
[16:53] <whisperkiller> im trying to install linux on this laptop for a freind who cannot afford to purchase a new copy of windows
[16:54] <elijah> Does anyone know how I can use Dolphin to FTP w/SSL? I tried using ftp but it returns the error 'Server replied: 530 Have to use explicit SSL/TLS before logging on.'

[16:55] <devilcode1> hi all

[16:55] <soreau> RootChaos: Seems 2.7 made it into karmic (9.10)
[16:55] <soreau> ! who | whisperkiller
[16:55] <devilcode1> anyone here used ffmpg
[16:56] <Djoef> Jordan_U, I don't understand, what is not reliable (in the meanwhile i can start it on /dev/sda right ?)
[16:56] <jrib> devilcode1: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[16:56] <devilcode1> ffmpeg i mean
[16:56] <whisperkiller> soreau sorry i normally try to use highlighting
[16:56] <soreau> whisperkiller: Try to right click on the networking icon and enable wireless
[16:56] <RootChaos> soreau, yes indeed. i have another server running 9.10 which has it on
[16:56] <RootChaos> but like i said
[16:56] <whisperkiller> in the toolbar?
[16:56] <devilcode1> ok  im trying to use ffmpeg to turn a series of images into a .mpg file
[16:56] <movx> soreau,  thanks, didn't know that, but after these commands the problem remains unsolved
[16:56] <devilcode1> it works but all black output
[16:56] <RootChaos> i'm a bit weary to do the dist-upgrade remotely
[16:56] <RootChaos> in case it breaks
[16:56] <whisperkiller> soreau you mean right click the networking icon on the toolbar correct?
[16:57] <soreau> RootChaos: So for 8.04 you would need to build it or try to install the deb package(s) from karmic (not recommended)
[16:57] <soreau> whisperkiller: Yes, either left or right click there is a way to enable it
[16:57] <devilcode1> Command Such As ::   >>  ffmpeg -i image%d.jpg video.mpg
[16:57] <RootChaos> hhmm
[16:57] <whisperkiller> soreau it wont let me enable it...ive tried that
[16:57] <RootChaos> soreau, can you perhaps point me in a direction on how to build it for 8.04 ?
[16:57] <soreau> whisperkiller: Does 'iwconfig' show a wlan0 interface?
[16:58] <KXTwo> I have a question about software insallation.  I can go to the software center to install adobe reader 9 but I can go to the adobe site and download 9.4, how would I install 9.4?
[16:58] <soreau> RootChaos: You probably would have to grab the source from their site and follow the build instructions (usually included in a README or INSTALL file packaged with the source)
[16:59] <RootChaos> ah
[16:59] <RootChaos> ok
[16:59] <soreau> ! source | RootChaos
[16:59] <RootChaos> soreau, normal ./configure .. make .. make install stuff ?
[16:59] <soreau> ! compile | RootChaos
[16:59] <Sideways> I installed ubuntu 10.10 on an intel d815eea2 board, hangs at login screen, recovery console stops at agppart-intel i815 chipset eth0. I would really appreciate a little direction. I kind of new to linux.

[16:59] <soreau> RootChaos: I don't know what squid uses for a build system, but yes, you'd use make etc
[17:00] <RootChaos> soreau, ok, thanks for the help !
[17:00] <cntb> this is a tip for 2 finger scrolling but in 9.10 will it work in 10.10 ?
[17:00] <soreau> whisperkiller: If you try 'sudo iwlist wlan0 scan|grep -i essid' does it show results?
[17:00] <cntb> this  http://blog.mfabrik.com/2009/10/11/setting-up-multi-touch-scrolling-for-ubuntu-9-10-karmic-koala-linux-on-asus-eee-1005ha-netbook/ is a tip for 2 finger scrolling but in 9.10 will it work in 10.10 ?
[17:01] <movx> BluesKaj, should i try restarting the system perhaps?
[17:01] <rooks> is there a way to make in thunderbird a one folder with all the unread mail from selected accounts?
[17:02] <whisperkiller> soreau hmm it seems to be hanging on that command
[17:02] <BluesKaj> movx, what happened after running those commands ?
[17:02] <soreau> whisperkiller: Does the output of 'lsmod|grep ath' show anything?
[17:02] <whisperkiller> soreau its not returning a cmmand prompt now
[17:02] <soreau> whisperkiller: Ctrl+C
[17:03] <soreau> whisperkiller: Try 'sudo ifconfig wlan0 up' in case the interface is down
[17:03] <movx> BluesKaj,  the same problem this is another package installtion error - a font  http://paste.ubuntu.com/568304/
[17:04] <Docfxit> What is the best IRC client for Ubuntu?
[17:04] <whisperkiller> soreau says no such device
[17:04] <ooix> can i uninstall updatedb, because i don't use locate at all. or is it needed by some other software?
[17:04] <soreau> whisperkiller: You said you can see wlan0 in iwconfig output.. does 'ifconfig wlan0' show information for wlan0 iface?

[17:07] <uRock> same here, atheros and 10.10 be happy
[17:07] <soreau> whisperkiller: What module is loaded from the output of 'lspci|grep ath'? ath9k or ath5k?
[17:08] <rooks> Docfxit, youre welcome :)
[17:08] <whisperkiller> soreau yeah i dont know mate....i tend to take what people say in here with a grain of salt...but this seems to be the same issue i had with 10.10 so 10.04 must have the same issue if thats true
[17:08] <uRock> adeee, would you like me to move the thread to Server Platforms?
[17:08] <movx> BluesKaj, did that now, first I ran the first two commands sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a now the clear-avail command
[17:08] <soreau> whisperkiller: I guess you probably can't easily pastebin the output of 'dmesg' but look and see if there's any interesting messages indicating a problem. You can also look in /var/log/syslog
[17:08] <movx> BluesKaj,  will try now
[17:08] <whisperkiller> soreau seems like ath9k
[17:08] <rooks> is there a way to make in thunderbird a one folder with all the unread mail from selected accounts?
[17:09] <soreau> whisperkiller: Try to reload the module and see if you're able to: sudo rmmod ath9k && sudo modprobe ath9k
[17:09] <uRock> whisperkiller, have you install backports?
[17:09] <soreau> whisperkiller: Then look at the output of 'dmesg' right after reloading the module
[17:09] <soreau> whisperkiller: 'dmesg|tail' or so
[17:10] <uRock> adeee_ , would you like me to move the thread to Server Platforms?
[17:10] <pareli> are there any software out there like tor?
[17:11] <whisperkiller> urock i have not installed anything...fresh install.
[17:11] <Krycek> how do you change the boot screen on ubuntu 10.10?
[17:11] <geek4week> is there anyone here could help me in a simple matter of installing jdk on ubuntu ?
[17:11] <soreau> Krycek: What boot screen?
[17:12] <soreau> geek4week: Not unless you ask..

[17:13] <Undisclosed99> can someone tell me why my RAM keeps loading as 750MB when it should be 2.7Gig and only sometimes it loads correctly
[17:13] <soreau> geek4week: Why can't you install it from the repos?
[17:13] <e_mc^2>  ofer #eminem give price?
[17:13] <Krycek> ..... does it have a another name for it since im on ubuntu -.-
[17:13] <geek4week> soreau, i need this spacific version
[17:13] <soreau> ! who | Krycek
[17:14] <uRock> Undisclosed99, have you tried the free command to see if it is seeing all of the RAM? You may want to check that the chips are properly seated on the mobo
[17:14] <movx> BluesKaj,  same issues http://paste.ubuntu.com/568313/
[17:14] <KGBWolf> what command can i type in to view cpu users logged in ip mem usage hd usage etc
[17:14] <Krycek> soreau: ..... does it have a another name for it since im on ubuntu -.-
[17:14] <whisperkiller> soreau i am not seeing anything i recognize as being an issue of any sort
[17:14] <KGBWolf> from BASH
[17:14] <Undisclosed99> uRock:  ill check now
[17:14] <soreau> geek4week: You should seek help from whoever produces this .bin file
[17:14] <whisperkiller> soreau but that may be because i dont know what im looking at too
[17:14] <soreau> geek4week: We only really support official ubuntu packages here
[17:14] <geek4week> soreau, their channel is invite only :-(
[17:15] <rooks> in thunderbird, is there a way to make a one folder/place with all of the unread mail from selected accounts?
[17:15] <soreau> geek4week: Is it java development toolkit?
[17:15] <geek4week> soreau, yes
[17:15] <soreau> geek4week: Try #java
[17:15] <Undisclosed99> uRock: its only seeing 762256, usually after a reboot though it does load correct
[17:15] <geek4week> soreau, Cannot join #java (Channel is invite only).
[17:16] <soreau> Krycek: Are you talking about the screen where you log in?
[17:16] <Undisclosed99> geek4week: i think if you register your nick it lets you in
[17:16] <KGBWolf> when i log into bash i get a system summary how can i replicate this?
[17:16] <soreau> geek4week: It's ##java
[17:17] <soreau> blackCode: It would help if you registered your nick too
[17:17] <whisperkiller> soreau should i try an earlier version?  9.10 maybe?
[17:17] <blackCode> soreau, thanks mate
[17:17] <Krycek> I am stuck with my 'boot' screen from hell, if its not called a 'boot' screen tell what it is then.. im starting my F computer and BAM! there is the F boot screen showing me that the freaking computer are loading... how can i turn it too default ?? thanks.
[17:17] <blackCode> soreau, Thanks alot, i'm in :)
[17:18] <ikonia> Krycek: your F computer ?
[17:18] <Krycek> ikonia: ye my F computer with it F boot screen..
[17:18] <whisperkiller> the deal is i dont really need the newest greatest ubuntu i need something the common computer user can use reliably
[17:18] <soreau> whisperkiller: No, what happened when you tried reloading the module and all?
[17:18] <ikonia> Krycek: what is an F computer and F boot screen ?
[17:18] <ikonia> is it some sort of theme ?
[17:18] <whisperkiller> soreau nothing that i could tell besides it shutting down and restarting
[17:18] <Krycek> its the word FUCKING as F
[17:18] <jrib> KGBWolf: you mean the contents of /etc/motd?  See « man update-motd » I guess
[17:18] <movx> lastlog/ movx
[17:19] <ikonia> Krycek: then don't use it,
[17:19] <whisperkiller> wish i could easily get a pastebin
[17:19] <jrib> Krycek: don't do that please
[17:19] <ikonia> !language > Krycek
[17:19] <Krycek> omg ! one question you knew the F answer too,...
[17:19] <Krycek> F this shitt..
[17:19] <ikonia> Krycek: I didn't, or I would have just told you to mind your langauge
[17:19] <soreau> whisperkiller: I am thinking some strange issue but if dmesg doesn't report it, then I'm not sure where else to look for the problem
[17:20] <cntb> krycek wont listen
[17:20] <jrib> KGBWolf: or maybe you mean landscape-sysinfo?
[17:20] <soreau> whisperkiller: Maybe try #wireless or anywhere
[17:20] <whisperkiller> soreau what should i look for in dmesg?  becuase i may not know how to read it
[17:20] <uRock> cntb, he b gone, so he won't talk either
[17:20] <uRock> tee hee
[17:20] <cntb> whisperkiller:  have same or similar wifi - atheros

[17:25] <ikonia> adeee_: bad ram

[17:26] <soreau> whisperkiller: Does it have a button to enable/disable the wireless?
[17:26] <cntb> wonder if emulation indicated in http://blog.mfabrik.com/2009/10/11/setting-up-multi-touch-scrolling-for-ubuntu-9-10-karmic-koala-linux-on-asus-eee-1005ha-netbook/ will work in 10.10
[17:26] <adeee_> ikonia is there is no any way to recover those errors?
[17:26] <ikonia> adeee_: no, if there are errors it's bad ram
[17:26] <cntb> ideas?
[17:26] <uRock> adeee_ you can't repair bad RAM with code
[17:27] <Sin`> i have a phone, that has a FAT partition of 2gb, ext3 partition of 2GB, and another Fat partition of about 3,36 GB. When i connect it to ubuntu in wmvare, the storage doesnt show on the workspace, but they are shown in the Places tab... ergo, i cannot access any of these 3 partitions... what should i do?
[17:27] <adeee_> uRock what code?
[17:27] <cntb> anyone ready to discuss consider touchpad scrolling?
[17:27] <jrib> !helpme | cntb
[17:27] <ActionParsnip> Sin`: is the vmware configured correctly to access USB correctly?
[17:27] <adeee_> ikonia. if i buy a good ram. then my graphics are working?
[17:27] <uRock> adeee_, I said you con't fix ram with code, there is no code that can fix it
[17:27] <Sin`> well it did install a wmvare usb driver
[17:28] <Sin`> other than that i havent touched anything
[17:28] <ikonia> adeee_: I don't know about that, but you need a stable platform to debug isues
[17:28] <adeee_> oh. ok urock.
[17:28] <cntb> ty jrib
[17:28] <ActionParsnip> Sin`: I'd ask in #vmware they may know something. Have you tried virtualbox?
[17:28] <Sin`> no i have not
[17:28] <Sin`> i will try that
[17:28] <Sin`> let you know if it works
[17:28] <whisperkiller> soreau it does but it wont highlight....https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Atheros/AR9285
[17:29] <ActionParsnip> Sin`: the vmware guys can check your config is good, then we can start looking into the OS
[17:29] <Sin`> ok
[17:29] <Sin`> thank you
[17:29] <Sin`> is the chanell on this server?
[17:29] <juso> damn ubuntu needs to become more mainstream in the eyes of major retailers and such.
[17:29] <adeee_> ikonia So what your suggestion.  how much ram. and graphics require for ubuntu. i have current 512mb ram. and 1.6 g HZ processor with 80 gb hard.
[17:29] <juso> cant use ubuntu as a main desktop until then.
[17:29] <ActionParsnip> Sin`: sure, just type:   /join #vmware
[17:29] <cntb> just how helpful it was > jrib
[17:30] <soreau> whisperkiller: Well that tells you what to do right there.. have you installed the backports yet?
[17:30] <Sin`> ok. thank you
[17:30] <ActionParsnip> juso: go ask Dell about Ubuntu
[17:30] <jrib> cntb: I have no idea what your actual issue is.  That's why you should just ask your question and be patient
[17:30] <ikonia> adeee_: as much as you can afford
[17:30] <cntb> sorry jrib ^^^
[17:30] <ActionParsnip> juso: wait, so just because ubuntu isn't "mainstream" you won't use it?
[17:31] <tishammer> hello
[17:31] <juso> ActionParsnip, i said i CANT, not wont. I have too many external devices that arent supported in linux.
[17:31] <soreau> hi tishammer
[17:31] <uRock> adeee_, is the RAM for your server or a Desktop machine?
[17:31] <cntb> will come back later
[17:32] <ActionParsnip> juso: then thats the peripheral sellers fault, you could bother them to support Linux more
[17:32] <tishammer> i'm trying to increase my i/o performance. every i/o intensive task is pretty slow and risens %wa. on a fast computer doing something like "for i in *.gz; do gunzip $i; done" is taking 30% cpu and 30%wa. any ideas?
[17:32] <adeee_> Urock this is for desktop machine
[17:32] <soreau> juso: What external devices?
[17:32] <uRock> do you have a graphics card or just the graphics that are built in?
[17:32] <MrMintanet2> Can someone tell me how I can setup my Ubuntu box to act as a file server?  I want to be able to map windows computers to it over the internet rather than LAN.
[17:32] <whisperkiller> soreau no i have not i am about to try it...the main thing is i wanted to talk to someone who knows what they are talking about before i went through and trying to update everything this time
[17:32] <MrMintanet2> Can someone tell me how I can setup my Ubuntu box to act as a file server?  I want to be able to map windows computers to it over the internet rather than LAN.
[17:32] <MrMintanet2> Sorry
[17:33] <juso> ActionParsnip, so you're saying if all major retailers sold linux as an option OS, the manufactures wont start supporting? come on now.. lets get serious
[17:33] <whisperkiller> soreau i spent two hours updating and setting things up last time to have someone tell me i needed to install a different version
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> tishammer: you could look into hdparm
[17:33] <uRock> MrMintanet2, right click and share the files
[17:33] <MrMintanet2> uRock, Can you not give any more info than that?  I am behind a corporate firewall.  I am the network admin though.
[17:34] <soreau> whisperkiller: I'd say by the looks of that wiki page, you need to install the backports package. You may have to do this for really new hardware before the driver makes it into the kernel
[17:34] <whisperkiller> soreau im really glad i caught you though because you kinda helped me figure out whats going on....always appreciate the help mate
[17:34] <soreau> whisperkiller: No problem, let me know if it works
[17:34] <juso> soreau, canon camera/software, a specific wireless keyword, a all in one fax/printer/scanner - plus a few more
[17:34] <pareli> How do i make a startup script so weechat starts at login?
[17:34] <soreau> juso: wireless keyword?
[17:34] <twitch> !samba | MrMintanet2
[17:34] <sjm> MrMintanet, you might ask more over on #ubuntu-server, but it's basically Samba setup issues and security and firewall ports, I would think.
[17:34] <whisperkiller> soreau yes someone mentioned installing the backports earlier...i just wanted to make sure what was up
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> juso: if Linux got as much support as the companies give to Window there wouldnt be an issue. Sadly many are ignorant. Companies like IBM, Nvidia, Intel, Brother and HP make great Linux drivers and support very well
[17:35] <twitch> !iptables | MrMintanet2
[17:35] <uRock> MrMintanet2 if you are sharing to the outside world, then you'll have to forward ports, otherwise just sharing the folder should make it avail to everyone on the network
[17:35] <MrMintanet2> twitch, I want to set it up so that the windows computer can mount the network drive over the internet...
[17:35] <juso> ActionParsnip, exactly. so my point stands..
[17:35] <adeee_> uRock my graphic card is builtin
[17:35] <uRock> adeee_, 32bit or 64bit OS?
[17:35] <soreau> juso: I don't see why any of those devices wouldn't work in linux.. maybe you could set up vbox in ubuntu with whatever OS to connect to devices on the usb bus
[17:35] <adeee_> 32 bit os
[17:35] <MrMintanet2> uRock, I want it to map over the internet.  Could you possibly break this process down?
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> juso: I think the companies would have to support the OS if they want the "new OS" users to buy their products
[17:36] <uRock> MrMintanet2 that is beyond my abilities
[17:36] <soreau> juso: But yea, really if your device vendor doesn't support linux, it might be time to consider a better vendor ;)
[17:36] <juso> soreau, come on now.. install linux, then install another OS ina  virtual enviorment to get my devices to work....
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> juso: amen to what soreau said, vote with yor wallet. Don't give money to companies not supporting Linux
[17:37] <soreau> juso: Or get better devices, it's up to you really
[17:37] <MrMintanet2> Can someone tell me how I can setup my Ubuntu box to act as a file server?  I want to be able to map windows computers to it over the internet rather than LAN.
[17:37] <BluesKaj> movx, dunno how else to help , looks like a failed install ...perhaps a reinstall is in order
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> juso: what make / model is the printer / scanner (please not lexmark).....?
[17:37] <juso> soreau, so how good a device is depends on if its supported in linux? lol
[17:38] <soreau> MrMintanet: There's plenty of different configurations and protocols you can use to set that up. Try being more specific with your question or use google
[17:38] <juso> ActionParsnip, i can print to it, but I cant use the scan to computer options and such, which is why i use it mainly.
[17:38] <MrMintanet2> soreau, I am wanting to MAP a network drive OVER THE INTERNET.  This is very specific.
[17:38] <uRock> MrMintanet2 if you need help with your routers/switches, then you should visit the IRC for your brand equipment
[17:38] <soreau> juso: Yes, that should tell you something about their company
[17:38] <twitch> MrMintanet2: look at samba, port forwarding for you firewall or vpn access. It's to complicated for in here something you will spend time reading about
[17:38] <mia158> MrMintanet2: You should do this via a vpn connection to the corporate net. once that vpn connection is established you would then connect as if they are on the LAN.
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet2: if you install openssh-server, you have an SFTP server already :)
[17:39] <soreau> MrMintanet: Try #networking maybe
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> juso: doesn't answer the question does it
[17:39]  * drc looks at the clock and wonders when troll feeding time rolled around?
[17:39] <juso> soreau, you name ONE reputable camera company that supports linux with their software. i will wait.
[17:39] <MrMintanet2> Thanks everyone.
[17:39] <MrMintanet2> I will hunt
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet2: sftp is great for WAN access as it's secure
[17:39] <soreau> heh, MrMintanet just got answerized ;)
[17:39] <llutz> MrMintanet2:use a vpn or ssh to tunnel nfs/cifs
[17:40] <jkg> camera ... software? aren't they all just usb-storage devices these days?
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> juso: what make / model is the printer/scanner please?
[17:40] <uRock> drc, it is not nice to call people trolls
[17:40] <MrMintanet2> To everyone suggesting VPN or SSH, I realize these are options.  I would like to rely on Windows Authentication as my means to connect.
[17:40] <juso> ActionParsnip, i need the specific software to run NOT an alternative.
[17:40] <soreau> juso: Nobody cares about software. If the driver is in the kernel and the device works, that's enough. If you want the little pretty software doodads with bells and whistles, use windows, wine or a VM
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> juso: my girlfriends does as I take the SD card out and jam it in a card reader. Ironically it's a Kodak whom HATE linux
[17:40] <soreau> Not ubuntu issue
[17:41] <tishammer> ActionParsnip: i did hdparm it, and it's fast
[17:41] <ActionParsnip> tishammer: nice
[17:41] <soreau> juso: Most cameras are block devices that justwork in linux
[17:41] <ActionParsnip> juso: what make / model is the printer / scanner please?
[17:42] <tishammer> ActionParsnip: i have 97MB/s buffered reads on hdparm
[17:42] <juso> soreau, i am taling about the camera software, canon EOS utility
[17:42] <sjm> juso, you are avoiding the questions as to the makes and models that don't work for you.
[17:42] <soreau> juso: What functionality does this 'eos' provide?
[17:42] <juso> soreau, google it.
[17:42] <tishammer> ActionParsnip: the same operations are 4x faster on my macbook with mac osx. tested on linux with on different hardware, still slow
[17:42] <movx> BluesKaj, thanks for all the help,  you brought me close to a solution, it is a netbook 10.04 with plenty of data, several kernel image updates, will keep have to keep trying somehow.
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> juso: found this, seems Canon Coolpiz works nice: http://art.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1502511
[17:42] <soreau> juso: If you want help with your devices, install ubuntu then show us the output of lsusb and lspci
[17:42] <JuJuBee> Anybody know if I can use include-from and exclude-from in rsync at same time?
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> tishammer: is the system a macbook?
[17:42] <ikonia> JuJuBee: should be able to
[17:43] <soreau> juso: No, you're here for support, not me. You do the googling
[17:43] <tishammer> ActionParsnip: the fast one is a macbook with mac os. the slow ones are desktops / racks with ubuntu 10.10
[17:43] <erkan^> !gnome-shell
[17:43] <soreau> ! unity | erkan^
[17:43] <ActionParsnip> tishammer: then obviously it will be better. The OS is custom made for the exact hardware you are using. If you look at the spec of a PS3 or an XBOX360 they SUCK but the games are custom made to run well onsuch poor hardware
[17:44] <juso> soreau, i never asked for help or support, i am TELLING YOU - the software doesn't run on linux, and i need that specific software.
[17:44] <movx> BluesKaj,  bye for now.. it is almost midnight here... thanks again
[17:44] <ikonia> juso: ok, contact the vendor for a Linux version of the software
[17:44] <erkan^> what is unity, soreau ?
[17:44] <soreau> juso: If you aren't helping or getting help, you may leave. This is the ubuntu support channel
[17:44] <drc> juso: That's like buying a camper shell for your old Ford truck and being upset when it doesn't fit your new Chevy Truck
[17:44] <soreau> erkan^: That factoid just told you
[17:44] <ikonia> juso: problem solved. Good luck
[17:44] <erkan^> ok
[17:44] <ActionParsnip> juso: how can we "google" what hardware YOU have??
[17:44] <erkan^> thank you
[17:44] <sjm> juso, you are avoiding the questions as to the makes and models that don't work for you.
[17:44] <ikonia> ActionParsnip: drc all done
[17:44] <soreau> ActionParsnip: lmao
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> ikonia: sweet :)
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> soreau: its a fair point ;)
[17:45] <drc> ikonia: darn...and I think I had a "real" answer for him
[17:45] <ikonia> drc: he's refusing to give you the info, so lets end it
[17:46] <juso> I made a simple ubuntu related statement, period. you are trying to turn it into something its not, calm down guys. wow.
[17:46] <ikonia> juso: what do you want
[17:46] <juso> ikonia, didnt i just say i made a simple ubuntu statement, is english your first language?
[17:46] <soreau> -_-
[17:46] <drc> ikonia: oh, I will
[17:46] <ikonia> juso: what do you want from this channel
[17:46] <jpds> juso: Can't you just put the SD card into your laptop?
[17:46] <sjm> juso, I say it ONCE AGAIN>>> you are avoiding the questions as to the makes and models that don't work for you.
[17:47] <juso> sjm: i just said, canon eos software, STOP TYPING in caps.
[17:47] <Burak19999> hi
[17:47] <jpds> juso: Not available for Ubuntu.
[17:47] <ikonia> juso: ok, what do you want from this channel ?
[17:47] <soreau> juso: And I asked what functionality this 'eos' provides'
[17:47] <sjm> juso, you were also asked about printer/scanner/keyboards that you said didn't work.
[17:47] <juso> wow im popular.
[17:47] <mia158> MrMintanet2: look at this doc for your file sharing setup. You should address your internet connection solution as a separate issue.
[17:47] <Fuchs> juso: you don't need EOS software in linux, or at least I have no idea why you would need it
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> juso: I found about 50 different Canon EOS model, care to narrow it down?
[17:48] <mia158> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ComprehensiveSambaGuide
[17:48]  * AbhijiT eonders what is EOS btw!!! ;)
[17:48] <Fuchs> juso: digikam detects the EOS models fine, is able to download pictures, as well as handling raw pictures. For firmware updates you don't need it either
[17:48] <AbhijiT> w*
[17:48] <jpds> AbhijiT: Canon camera OS software.
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> AbhijiT: its a range of cameras from Canon
[17:48] <AbhijiT> ohhh okay!
[17:48] <Fuchs> AbhijiT: dslr cameras from canon, but he is refering to the software
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> juso: what model EOS do you have>?
[17:49] <AbhijiT> hmm
[17:49] <juso> Fuchs, I need it for real time viewing and recording, along with options to control the camera.
[17:49] <jpds> AbhijiT: Quite nice cameras too.
[17:49] <AbhijiT> jpds, okay! :)
[17:49] <jpds> juso: Then, you'll have to talk to Canon about that.
[17:49] <ikonia> juso: ok, so thats something you need to speak to cannon about
[17:49] <ikonia> we can move on now
[17:49] <ActionParsnip> juso: until you reply to my perfectly reasonable question, nobody can help you at all
[17:49] <soreau> heh
[17:49] <juso> jpds, cannon doesn't support linux on their software, for the 5th time. end of story, wow.
[17:49] <Fuchs> juso: in that case you have to run it in a virtualisation solution which passes through usb
[17:50] <Fuchs> juso: such as virtual box.
[17:50] <ikonia> juso: ok, so there is nothing more to say,
[17:50] <JuJuBee> ikonia: I thought I could use both also, but it seems that I cannot.  When I copy the contents of include-from to the rsync command itself it works but not when I use include-from=...
[17:50] <uRock> juso, install WIndows and be happy
[17:50] <soreau> Fuchs: That's exactly what I suggested
[17:50] <soreau> uRock: I told him that too ;)
[17:50] <Fuchs> soreau: possible, I just joined :)
[17:50] <ikonia> JuJuBee: I've never tried to be honest, but I'm surprised
[17:50] <soreau> Fuchs: hi btw :)
[17:50] <wulfy> whats the android support like in ubuntu (android smartphones)
[17:50] <Fuchs> hi soreau :)
[17:50] <juso> holy shit, lol - I made a simply statement "damn i wish i could run all my devices through linux, but the software isnt supported"   CALM THE HELL DOWN GUYS
[17:50] <uRock> !droid
[17:51] <ikonia> juso: drop the language
[17:51] <soreau> ! language | juso
[17:51] <soreau> whew
[17:51] <Fuchs> wulfy: works regarding USB tethering, devloping and as a usb mass storage
[17:51] <Fuchs> wulfy: so: rather good
[17:51] <wulfy> Fuchs,  so better than current blackberry support?
[17:51] <soreau> wulfy: Also see #android
[17:52] <Fuchs> wulfy: probably, yes. I don't own any blackberry device
[17:52] <uRock> I guess it is Linux's fault that vendors don't support linux
[17:52] <Fuchs> wulfy: what functionality would you need?
[17:52] <uRock> sigh
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> wulfy: it rocks, there are loads of apps to help you control your system too (transdroid to manage torrents for example)
[17:52] <wulfy> soreau,  thought it would be wiser asking on the platform i was using rather than asking them and them sendimg me here
[17:52] <wulfy> ActionParsnip,  yeah i saw the app for ssh (a must for remote admin on my nodes)
[17:53] <soreau> wulfy: Just making you aware.. some people don't know of other channels on the network
[17:53] <invisilux> hi there fellow ubuntu user.
[17:53] <wulfy> soreau, indeed :)
[17:53] <tishammer> ActionParsnip: it's not so custom... it's not even the original harddrive
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> wulfy: indeed, plus andchat for those long bus rides ;)
[17:53] <uRock> invisilux, got questions?
[17:53] <invisilux> Does anybody have any experience or knowledge towards using an Nokia E72 with ubuntu
[17:53] <wulfy> ActionParsnip,  voice of experiance :D love it lol thanks :)
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> tishammer: the controller is still the same, the IDE may be different but the drive controller is the same
[17:53] <ikonia> invisilux: yes, very much
[17:54] <ActionParsnip> wulfy: hell yeah, fatrat have an android app in their to do list too
[17:54] <invisilux> okay.. nice :) glad to know.
[17:54] <invisilux> I'm new on ubuntu (linux in general)
[17:54] <ikonia> invisilux: I've only just got rid of mine, do a good bit of work with the E72 and Linux
[17:54] <soreau> ! who | invisiblek
[17:54] <ikonia> "did" sorry
[17:54] <wulfy> ActionParsnip,  im off to buy iver a blackberry or a droid tommrow.... i kinda think with the ubuntu support i might go for the droid
[17:55] <invisilux> But is it possible to sync task and calender with the nokia e72 and evolution?
[17:55] <ikonia> invisilux: short answer, no
[17:55] <Fuchs> wulfy: definitely android, since the most important things  (file transfer, tethering) will work out of the box
[17:55] <AbhijiT> !manual | invisilux
[17:55] <ikonia> invisilux: long answer, yes but it such a complex process you'll never maintain it
[17:55] <wulfy> Fuchs, great :)
[17:55] <stianhj> wulfy: +1 for Android
[17:55] <ikonia> AbhijiT: why have you just given him the manual for a Nokia E72 question on ubuntu ?
[17:55] <invisilux> oh.. okay. Well then i'll just find another way then :)
[17:56] <ActionParsnip> wulfy: it does a lot, i recommend droid and tonnes of my friends are dropping apple's rubbish for android based handsets
[17:56] <AbhijiT> ikonia, because he said he is new to ubuntua nd linux
[17:56] <ikonia> invisilux: the straight sync using tools like gnokia don't work,
[17:56] <invisilux> Okay...
[17:56] <ikonia> AbhijiT: so ? he had a specific question, don't spam people with info they didn't ask for
[17:56] <wulfy> thanks guys (actionparsnip, stianhj  Fuchs )
[17:56] <invisilux> good to know.
[17:56] <ikonia> invisilux: you bascially have to sync evolution with a webdev server, then get the E72 to pull down the calander from a webdev server
[17:57] <AbhijiT> ikonia, okay just thought that since he is new to linux ubu manual might be of his help
[17:57] <ikonia> invisilux: you need the E72 conduit packs to be able to do it, it's a real drag
[17:57] <invisilux> hmm.. so your suggestion is to fetch from a webserver.. hmm
[17:58] <ikonia> invisilux: no, a webdev server
[17:58] <ikonia> invisilux: sorry, webdav
[17:58] <invisilux> what if i could transfer my calender stuff to google calender, could I from there got it to sync with evolution?
[17:59] <ikonia> invisilux: google calander is a web dav service, however setting up the conduits for the Nokia is a real pain
[17:59] <invisilux> hmm.. yeah i could imagine, however I know a guy from work how sync with google and e72, so maybe..
[17:59] <ikonia> invisilux: I've been through all this myself and just worked out it was not a practical solution
[18:00] <IdleOne> invisiblek ikonia can you two take this to a PM or #ubuntu-offtopic as it is not Ubuntu specific support.
[18:00] <ActionParsnip> is there a web service I can install to get an IRC client in Ubuntu. I don't want an IRC server. Just a service on a server I can access via HTTP and get a client. Thanks
[18:00] <IdleOne> err invisilux ^^
[18:00] <ikonia> invisilux: actually it is, it's E72 syncing with Evolution in Ubuntu
[18:00] <ikonia> oops
[18:00] <ikonia> IdleOne: ^
[18:00] <IdleOne> ActionParsnip: freenode offers a webchat client
[18:01] <ActionParsnip> IdleOne: true but I fancied setting one up on my fileserver for kicks
[18:01] <Wulfy> ActionParsnip,  mibbit.com?
[18:01] <Ubuntu-user> how to add applications in wine?
[18:01] <IdleOne> ActionParsnip: oh, sorry i misunderstood the question
[18:01] <soreau> Ubuntu-user: Install them?
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> Wulfy: let me check it
[18:02] <Ubuntu-user> yeah
[18:02] <Ubuntu-user> i'm having some issue with wine
[18:02] <soreau> IdleOne: Yea, he asked specifically how to get that model device working with ubuntu
[18:02] <llutz> ActionParsnip: cgiirc.org
[18:02] <invisilux> it is?
[18:02] <soreau> Ubuntu-user: What is the problem??
[18:03] <invisilux> cool. Thank you for clearing some stuff for me :)
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> llutz: looks good dude, its in the repo too ;)
[18:04] <llutz> ActionParsnip: works fine, easy to configure
[18:04] <Ubuntu-user> i installed java on wine to use SDM for cisco and than i was unable to remove java...
[18:04] <Sin`> yea
[18:04] <Sin`> they sent me here
[18:04] <Ubuntu-user> i feel its not working properly now
[18:04] <Sin`> they say it's ubuntu problem
[18:05] <Sin`> beacuse my device is clearly registered in wmvare
[18:05] <Sin`> but is not shown in ubuntu
[18:05] <Vivekananda> Hello everyone.I have this problem in lucid where when I do ctrl+s then the window pops up but disappears and the minimize and maximize my window again then only it is visible.Why is this?
[18:05] <soreau> Ubuntu-user: Maybe you can try #winehq for wine-specific support
[18:05] <Ubuntu-user> thanks mate
[18:05] <Garfield> ubentu
[18:05] <Garfield> virtual machine ey?
[18:06] <imi> hi :) how can I make ubuntu re-run my iptables based firewall every time my network status changes (e.g. wired connection attached, wireless connection establishes etc?)
[18:06] <Sin`> yea
[18:06] <sre-su> How to call the lock command at login so that immediately after login/auto-login the screen is locked?
[18:06] <enav> hi my coputer have 3 HDD 1 got ubuntu and the 2nd have winblow$, but i just remote the disk number 3 and now grub doe snot detect windows, i guess the dist 3 were the windows boot loader....how can i make taht windows appear in the grub list?????
[18:06] <Garfield> installing :D
[18:07] <soreau> Vivekananda: What program does this window belong to? ie. what does ctrl+s do for you?
[18:07] <SilentDis> is anyone here able to help me get network-manager functioning with a new mobile broadband device?
[18:07] <Vivekananda> It does a save and the problem is not particular to a window but from browsers this always happens
[18:07] <Vivekananda> It used to happen with nautilus but somehow corrected I dont know how
[18:08] <Vivekananda> the browsers being Chrome and Firefox
[18:08] <soreau> enav: You'd probably manually have to add a windows entry if it's not detected by update-grub2
[18:08] <enav> ok
[18:09] <js_> how can i change the gnome session to only read from xinitrc/xsession without launching gnome?
[18:10] <enav> who is flooding here?
[18:10] <enav> is a hack attack?
[18:10] <soreau> js_: You could stop gdm from starting and just start X manually.. or create a custom session to select in gdm
[18:10] <tehbaut> how do I check if I'm running x64 or not?
[18:10] <Fuchs> tehbaut: uname -m
[18:10] <tehbaut> I don't remember what version I installed
[18:10] <kaffien> I cannot seem to get apt-get updates
[18:10] <js_> soreau: any hints on creating a custom session?
[18:10] <soreau> enav: It's not a flood, it's people joining/parting the channel. You may be able to disable join/leave messages in your irc client
[18:10] <kaffien> is there issues with the us updates servers today or something?
[18:10] <Garfield> anyone here familiar with ryzom
[18:11] <soreau> js_: /msg FusioBot standalone
[18:11] <tehbaut> Fuchs: i686 ...is that x64 I presume?
[18:11] <js_> soreau: thank thee
[18:11] <Unode|Work> hi guys
[18:11] <soreau> js_: Will at least give you some idea I guess. Shows you how to use standalone X with compiz
[18:11] <Docfxit> I have a problem writing files.  When I use sudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf   I change something, save the file, it doesn't give me an error.  If I close and then re-open my changes aren't there.
[18:11] <Unode|Work> I'm trying to redirect output in crontab but it's ignoring the standard &>/dev/null
[18:11] <Fuchs> tehbaut: no, that would be x86 (32 bit)
[18:12] <Docfxit> I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 from a thumb drive.
[18:12] <Unode|Work> the command I'm running is "python somescript.py &> /dev/null"
[18:12] <sre-su> How to call the lock command at login so that immediately after login/auto-login the screen is locked?
[18:12] <wildc4rd> evenin all
[18:12] <soreau> sre-su: If there is a command to lock the screen, you can just call that from your session startup
[18:12] <Unode|Work> since dash is the default shell, is cron also affected by this? meaning that I need a different redirect statement?
[18:12] <tehbaut> Fuchs: I though x86 would be i386... or is that only for windows?
[18:13] <soreau> Unode|Work: Where is the output ending up?
[18:13] <Fuchs> tehbaut: i*86 is  x86
[18:13] <Unode|Work> soreau, on email
[18:14] <soreau> Unode|Work: There's a way to set email to null
[18:14] <Unode|Work> soreau, yes, but I still want email
[18:14] <Ubuntu-user> wine error for insallation : Error when opening a registry key the key doesnt' exist key Java Runtime Environment......

[18:14] <soreau> Unode|Work: right..
[18:14] <Unode|Work> soreau, but not stderr
[18:14] <sre-su> soreau: How to call that at login/auto-login? I want that just after auto-login screen is locked ...
[18:14] <tehbaut> Fuchs: gotcha... ok, thanks!
[18:14] <soreau> Unode|Work: Does it make a difference if you try > /dev/null 2&>1 ?
[18:14] <Unode|Work> soreau, testing
[18:15] <soreau> sre-su: what?
[18:15] <sre-su> soreau: How to call lock command at login/auto-login?
[18:15] <soreau> sre-su: I don't know if there's a command to lock the screen but if you have one, you can use it
[18:15] <gnewb> sre-su: Just disable Auto Login, it will boot to Login Screen, done.
[18:16] <soreau> Unode|Work: Sorry, it's supposed to be > /dev/null 2>&1
[18:16] <stianhj> sre-su, gnome-screensaver-command --lock will lock the screen
[18:16] <Unode|Work> sre-su, make it part of the .bashrc or whatever shell you use (if you mean terminal logins)
[18:16] <sre-su> I just want to know about a way which allows to auto-login to a particular account AND immediately locks screen?
[18:16] <stianhj> sre-su, you can add that command to your session startup
[18:17] <soreau> sre-su: So try 'gnome-screensaver-command --lock' to make sure it works, then put it in your session startup (sys>prefs>startup)
[18:17] <sre-su> stianhj: Yeah.. that seems fine. What could be the command for KDE?
[18:17] <stianhj> sre-su, i have no idea tbh
[18:17] <sre-su> Thanks anyway
[18:18] <soreau> sre-su: Which is the default kde screensaver?

[18:20] <gnewb> Ubuntu-user: Is it the latest ppa?
[18:20] <sre-su> Ubuntu-user: Do you have jdk or jre installed?
[18:20] <stianhj> Ubuntu-user, have you installed Java in wine?
[18:20] <drc> Ubuntu-user: try #winehq...#wine is an invitation only channel
[18:20] <gnewb> Ubuntu-user: Here> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine
[18:21] <soreau> Ubuntu-user: If you want to reset all wine, try removing .wine folder from your home directory
[18:21] <Unode|Work> soreau, it's dash (the shell I mean)
[18:21] <Ubuntu-user> nope
[18:21] <soreau> whoa :)
[18:21] <Ubuntu-user> how to remove .wine and install fre
[18:21] <Ubuntu-user> with java application
[18:21] <sre-su> soreau: How will default screensaver help?
[18:21] <stianhj> rm -rf ~/.wine
[18:21] <stianhj> will remove .wine directory
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> stianhj: why use force?
[18:22] <Pici> sre-su: Have you asked your KDE specific question in #kubuntu ?
[18:22] <stianhj> Ubuntu-user, you don't need to remove it.. just install Java Runtime
[18:22] <uRock> why not rm dir?
[18:22] <stianhj> oh, rm -r then
[18:22] <soreau> sre-su: Well that gnome-screensaver command is obviously for gnome-screensaver but I don't think gnome-screensaver is the default in kde
[18:22] <stianhj> ActionParsnip, habbit i guess
[18:22] <stianhj> probably a bad one :P
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> stianhj: its a REALLY bad habit
[18:22] <stianhj> ActionParsnip, pffft (i know)
[18:23] <sre-su> Pici: Thanks.
[18:23] <alsuna> ActionParsnip: why is rm -f such a bad habit?

[18:24] <solenoid> oops, sorry, wrong terminal, my apologies
[18:24] <Ubuntu-user> will install fresh wine :)
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> alsuna: you may mistakedly use it on a folder then it will delete it, no questions asked. Throwing force options around in general is a really BAD idea and should only be use when necessary
[18:25] <soreau> Ubuntu-user: Reinstalling an application while leaving it's settings folder behind will effectively do nothing
[18:25] <alsuna> ActionParsnip: thx
[18:25] <h0ar3> guys I have cloned Linus' kernel branch. how can I compile and install it for ubuntu? can anyone help?
[18:25] <Ubuntu-user> soreau: than?
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> alsuna: most cases when you want to delete you don't need -f yet people have the bad habit of adding it and its simply not needed
[18:25] <Xi3t> Hello everyone. :)
[18:25] <soreau> ! compile | h0ar3
[18:25] <Ubuntu-user> soreau: i remove the folder as well :)
[18:26] <pcypher> I do not want to chown...
[18:26] <soreau> Ubuntu-user: All's you have to do is remove the folder and restart wine
[18:26] <pcypher> just add a user
[18:26] <Ubuntu-user> soreau: done :)
[18:26] <h0ar3> soreau: the link is broken on this page. it does not tell how to compile kernel.
[18:26] <pcypher> i can sudo folders all day... but this seems easier
[18:26] <vooze> soreau, seems that worked.. weird
[18:26] <Docfxit> I can't figure out how to write a file.
[18:26] <h0ar3> soreau: plus I have a different kernel source than the repositories
[18:26] <soreau> h0ar3: What page?
[18:26] <ershad> I accidently 'quit' the volume control icon in the top panel. I tried adding 'gnome-volume-control-applet' to start up, it comes, but it doesn't have the rhythmbox control in it, could you help me to get back the old volume control?
[18:27] <llutz> ActionParsnip: rm -r    also won't ask if you're sure to delete something.
[18:27] <vooze> Is there any software like Apple spotlight - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spotlight_%28software%29 - For ubuntu?? I've testet Gnome Do, wich is nice.. but nice really the same

[18:28] <uRock> that has to be done via BIOS hardhead
[18:28] <h0ar3> stianhj: all they tell in results get the source from repository. I have a different source without no config files.
[18:28] <Ubuntu-user> soreau: wine ppa?

[18:30] <llutz> ActionParsnip: in use? you mean something like "lutz@watson:~/testdir$ rm -r ../testdir" ?  it won't ask, just deletes
[18:30] <stianhj> Docfxit, just copy it with Nautilus
[18:30] <ershad> I accidently 'quit' the volume control icon in the top panel. I tried adding 'gnome-volume-control-applet' to start up, it comes, but it doesn't have the rhythmbox control in it, could you help me to get back the old volume control?
[18:30] <soreau> h0ar3: Yes, I'm going to fix the link on that page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KernelCompileHowto
[18:30] <stianhj> ershad, did you remove the indicator-applet?
[18:31] <mia158> vooze: I was just wondering the same thing yesterday. I was able to find beagle but have not had a chance to test it yet
[18:31] <ershad> stianhj, that's it :) thank you so much :)
[18:32] <stianhj> ershad, no problem
[18:32] <mia158> vooze: I have also seen some people use google's desktop search engine
[18:33] <_ProGammer> Hey ,anyone has Ubuntu x64 on Dell Latitude E6500 with bryl ?
[18:34] <_ProGammer> does the default driver install support bryl or ... ?
[18:35] <stianhj> _ProGammer, bryl?

[18:35] <_ProGammer> beryl
[18:35] <rasalghul> #kroustil
[18:35] <soreau> Hrm
[18:35] <soreau> I'm trying to edit a ubuntu wiki page but I don't see where the links are in the source of the page
[18:36] <stianhj> _ProGammer, i think if you have 3D drivers install (I'm guessing Intel) Beryl should work fine..
[18:36] <Docfxit> stianhj, I have a problem writing files.  When I use sudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf   I change something, save the file, it doesn't give me an error.  If I close and then re-open my changes aren't there.
[18:37] <_ProGammer> when i install my ubuntu Hardware driver popup to install a driver for nvidia card
[18:37] <Docfxit> I have Ubuntu running from the thumb drive.
[18:37] <_ProGammer> now i dont know if it support 3d or not ?
[18:37] <stianhj> Docfxit, do you have the thumb set up with persistent storage?
[18:37] <Docfxit> stianhj, How would I check that?
[18:37] <soreau> _ProGammer: What is the output of 'glxinfo|grep renderer'?
[18:37] <stianhj> _ProGammer, if you installed the nvidia driver, beryl should work fine
[18:38] <soreau> stianhj: You mean compiz?
[18:38] <stianhj> Docfxit, how'd you create the USB thing?
[18:38] <stianhj> soreau, he asked about beryl.. which i assume should work as well?
[18:38] <drc> Docfxit: are you running Ubuntu from the .iso on the thumb drive or did you install Ubuntu to the thumb drive?
[18:38] <_ProGammer> i heard about ubuntu non free drivers ?
[18:38] <stianhj> soreau, if he installed it that is
[18:38] <stianhj> _ProGammer, that's what the popup thing is..
[18:38] <shibboleth> Question:  I'm dual-booting Windows and Ubuntu off the same hard drive, different partitions.  originally the Windows partition would show up under Places as a mountable directory.  this doesn't happen anymore.  I can still mount /dev/sda1 manually but it's a bit tedious.  is there a way to automount this on bootup without needing to enter sudo pword?
[18:39] <_ProGammer> :D thanks
[18:39] <soreau> stianhj: No, beryl is very old and outdated. Compiz is used in favor. Compiz is the default wm in ubuntu
[18:39] <Docfxit> drc, It could be from the ISO.  I used an install program that made the thumb drive bootable and downloaded the ISO.
[18:39] <angell> I can't seem to get this working right, I keep getting sound from my headphones and stereos at the same time
[18:39] <stianhj> soreau, i know it's the default.. he asked about beryl, but i'm guessing compiz is what he relly wants
[18:40] <angell> I've tried everything from http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4869649 and still can't get it right
[18:40] <joaozinho> hello
[18:40] <soreau> stianhj: Most likely, yes
[18:40] <joaozinho> do you know a channel where I can make a question related to linux/USB/programming?
[18:40] <angell> Is it that my hardware isn't compatiable with Ubuntu?
[18:40] <jo-erlend>  can Ubuntu boot from a software raid 5 now?
[18:40] <soreau> ! beryl | stianhj _ProGammer
[18:40] <joaozinho> In the meanwhile, why don't I have a /proc/bus/usb folder?
[18:40] <Docfxit> drc, I didn't know you could run directly from the ISO.  When it boots up it has a menu. One option is to install Ubuntu.  Should I try that?
[18:41] <stianhj> joaozinho, #linux?
[18:41] <lostogre_> can anyone tell me where h2n is in lucid?

[18:43] <angell> gnewb: I have Asla Mixer.
[18:43] <lostogre_> Jdogg420, what did you do to install it?
[18:43] <shlst> hello, is anyone here running ubuntu or ubuntu netbook edition on an asus eee 1018P ?
[18:43] <gnewb> angell: I think there is a Mute in that.
[18:44] <Jdogg420> it was a .deb and i dpkg it
[18:44] <Docfxit> Is there a way to tell if I'm running Ubuntu from the ISO or if it's installed?
[18:44] <lostogre_> Jdogg420, why not try just installing it in the plugins directory manually?
[18:45] <Jdogg420> ok ill try
[18:45] <Jdogg420> the fire fox plugins?
[18:45] <angell> gnewb: From the volume panel thats in my taskbar or through the terminal?
[18:45] <lostogre_> Jdogg420, make sure that all traces of any other "flash" players are gone.
[18:45] <lostogre_> Jdogg420, yes
[18:46] <inaproblemflash> hello ppl
[18:46] <Jdogg420> ok

[18:47] <inaproblemflash> LOL
[18:47] <inaproblemflash> i have a problem with my flash player..
[18:47] <lostogre_> inaproblemflash, details?
[18:47] <inaproblemflash> flash pluin installer
[18:47] <Diverdude> Is there an alternative to  the find command? Apparently on the university server there is no find command.
[18:47] <inaproblemflash> plugin*
[18:47] <lostogre_> inaproblemflash, distro version, bits, etc?
[18:48] <inaproblemflash> ubuntu 10.10 (maverick)
[18:48] <lostogre_> Diverdude, locate?
[18:48] <llutz> ActionParsnip: rm -r won't complain either ;)    don't get me wrong, i agree with you about general usage of -force, just not in case of rm
[18:48] <inaproblemflash> 64 i guess dunno abt bits exacttly
[18:48] <lostogre_> inaproblemflash, you need to know that for sure. uname -a on the cli.
[18:49] <inaproblemflash> i did nt get u..
[18:49] <Diverdude> lostogre_, locate is also not present
[18:49] <lostogre_> inaproblemflash, open a terminal and type uname -a
[18:49] <lostogre_> Diverdude, dunno, then.
[18:49] <angell> gnewb: Tried it, it muted everything.
[18:49] <angell> hrmm

[18:50] <lostogre_> inaproblemflash, you have the 64bit version.
[18:50] <gnewb> angell: Whoops, ok, lets see if we can resolve this...
[18:50] <inaproblemflash> yes.
[18:50] <angell> gnewb: I've tried the mute option and it muted everything, from the headphones all the way to the speakers.
[18:50] <kuramoto> okay, I m thinking to take my broken HDD(SAS format) to some special company for restoration. do you guys think is there any possibility of be analyzed and be stolen my files in HDD? HDD is encrypted as LVM.
[18:51] <inaproblemflash> wat do i do?
[18:51] <Diverdude> llutz, that also works for subfolders?
[18:51] <lostogre_> inaproblemflash, remove all of the installers from synaptic and install the square player from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_square.html. You have to copy it to the plugins directory manually.
[18:51] <llutz> Diverdude: man ls
[18:51] <Diverdude> llutz, awesome

[19:28] <soreau> Ubuntu-user: Oh that's right, I forgot.. there are some other files in /etc. Can you pastebin the output of 'grep -Rin hardy /etc' ?
[19:28] <splnet> Anyone know how to emulate the 3rd mouse button with a trackpad on my laptop?
[19:28] <shaula> gnewb, thank you for your help, I ll digg more to learn about it, always thought that they should be equivalent ways of updating system, sorry to learn that they are not
[19:28] <soreau> splnet: left and right click at the same time
[19:29] <Ubuntu-user> sure soreau lemme see where it is :P
[19:29] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet2: yes as it gets them to ask te real question. In responce to your question, I'm sure people do use it
[19:29] <iiname> hi, i have an iso image, the CD writer wants to know "Do you want to create a disc from the contents of the image or with the image file inside?"
[19:29] <gnewb> shaula: Here is a link that explains it better:> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/cleaning-up-all-unnecessary-junk-files-in-ubuntu.html
[19:30] <MrMintanet2> ActionParsnip, I am looking for someone who uses it.  I am not going to write out a paragraph question if there isn't anyone in here who uses it.    I'm not causing any harm.
[19:30] <splnet> soreau: great thanks!
[19:30] <BluesKaj> alienkid10, ping www.google.com
[19:30] <soreau> iiname: If you're just burning the image to disk, you want to create the disk using the image itself, not the contents
[19:30] <shaula> gnewb, checking it thanks a lot
[19:30] <soreau> splnet: No problem
[19:30] <pawleen> #france
[19:31] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet2: just ask, like ubottu says, then anyone using it will reply.
[19:31] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: "ping: unknown host www.google.com"
[19:31] <gnewb> shaula: You are very welcome, and always make a backup, please.
[19:31] <root__> I?
[19:31] <ActionParsnip> alienkid10: can you ping <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[19:31] <BluesKaj> alienkid10, you need to install the driver for the nic
[19:32] <Diverdude> I have a directory i want to delete, but i cannot do neither rm -R or rmdir because i get an error saying the device is bus
[19:32] <Diverdude> y
[19:32] <alienkid10> ActionParsnip: will try
[19:32] <iiname> soreau, i am still confused, this is the iso image of android, what do I do? "burn as file" or "burn contents'?
[19:32] <MrMintanet2> ActionParsnip, thanks for the worldly advice.  I will be sure to refer back to it when it actually applies to my chat behavior.
[19:32] <Joepie> Q: whats LVM and what can i do with it ?
[19:32] <Jdogg420> do i need a firewall for anything im using dialup
[19:32] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: it was working before kernel update!
[19:32] <gnewb> ActionParsnip: Quit giving out my IP# please....
[19:32] <Diverdude> if i wnter the folder and ls i dont see any content
[19:32] <Diverdude> wnter=enter
[19:32] <nixbox> hi all
[19:32] <alienkid10> ActionParsnip: host unreachable
[19:32] <MrMintanet2> gnewb, He isn't giving out "your" IP address.  What are you talking about?
[19:32] <nixbox> how do i figure out the font file path corresponding to a font listed by fc-list?
[19:32] <root__> sorry,have chinese?
[19:33] <Pici> !zh | root__
[19:33] <rand_u> can you run fsck repair from grub? I have a md0 device that found errors and says to repair manually. i don't have any other way to boot the system (no cd drive)
[19:33] <Sam_eye_am> How do I reset my dual monitor setup after messing it up by running in recovery mode?
[19:33] <ActionParsnip> gnewb: hahaa
[19:33] <MrMintanet2> gnewb, You realize everyone here can see your IP?
[19:33] <ActionParsnip> alienkid10: then you have no connection
[19:33] <gnewb> Yeah, was just a funny to lighten up a bit.
[19:33] <alienkid10> ActionParsnip BluesKaj  why would the nic work before kernel upgrade but not after?
[19:34] <Joepie> Q: whats LVM and what can i do with it ?
[19:34] <gnewb> !LVM
[19:34] <ActionParsnip> alienkid10: the new kernel sounds like it has a regression. If you compiled the module under the old module then you will need to recompile it under the new kernel
[19:35] <alienkid10> ActionParsnip: didn't compile anything it just worked before
[19:35] <Sam_eye_am> How can i reset my NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS dual monitor setup?
[19:35] <iiname> soreau, i am still confused, this is the iso image of android, what do I do? "burn as file" or "burn contents'? (sorry, asking again)
[19:35] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet2: its te standard reply for when users use pointles questions like "does anyone use" etc, its a worthless question
[19:35] <BluesKaj> alienkid10, alt+f2,  gksudo gedit /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state make sure network is enabled
[19:35] <ActionParsnip> Sam_eye_am: once you install the proprietary driver, you can use nvidia-settings to setup the dual display
[19:35] <alienkid10> ActionParsnip: what's the current kernel ver?
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> alienkid10: which release?
[19:36] <MrMintanet2> ActionParsnip, Again, thank you for the explanation as to why you felt the need to tell me how to ask questions.  Luckily, my question was pertinent in the context it was asked, regardless if you think so or not.    I know how to ask a question.
[19:36] <dwarder> how do i mount blu-ray/AVCHD iso ? use -t udf
[19:36] <qcode> ActionParsnip: Different kernel symbols
[19:36] <dwarder> for thouse who wanted to know
[19:36] <alienkid10> ActionParsnip: 10.10
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> !info linux-image | alienkid10
[19:36] <sandstrom> Is it possible to set up port forwarding for multiple ports in one tunnel?
[19:37] <MrMintanet2> ActionParsnip, Rather than having this banter in the chat, you can message me.  I do not think that it is appropriate for us to sit and debate this in the room.
[19:37] <Tigger__> does ubuntu  correct my machines time every time i reboot?
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet2: i've said all I can really
[19:37] <MrMintanet2> Tigger__, Are you using a Live CD?
[19:37] <Sam_eye_am> ActionParsnip, I had it setup but had to remove 2nd monitor and then ran it with a single monitor and now it refuses to go back to dual!
[19:37] <MrMintanet2> Sam_eye_am, Rebuild X
[19:37] <Diego1> Hi, I've got a problem between my xubuntu 10.04 and the fn keys, volume knob and dvd-rw, they all stop working after sometime working. Could someone give me a hint of which package manages those?
[19:38] <gnewb> Tigger_: Do you have it set up to sync with network time servers?
[19:38] <Sam_eye_am> ActionParsnip, I tried to recover the backup settings and that didn't work
[19:38] <Tigger__> MrMintanet: no I have it installed on my hardrive
[19:38] <ActionParsnip> Sam_eye_am: try:  sudo nvidia-xconfig   then restart x
[19:38] <Sam_eye_am> mrmintanet2
[19:38] <alienkid10> ActionParsnip: darn I have latest
[19:39] <Sam_eye_am> ActionParsnip, tried that
[19:39] <BluesKaj> ActionParsnip, ifconfig shows no gateway IP on alienkid10 's  nm
[19:39] <MrMintanet2> Tigger__, What is the problem?
[19:39] <Sam_eye_am> ActionParsnip, perhaps I should reinstall Nvidia driver?
[19:39] <MrMintanet2> Tigger__, What does the time say in your BIOS?  Are you sure your battery isn't bad?
[19:39] <ActionParsnip> Sam_eye_am: possibly, can't hurt to try
[19:40] <Tigger__> gnewb: I haven't been able to find anything on sttings yet :(
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> BluesKaj: could set one with route
[19:40] <MrMintanet2> Tigger__, Check your BIOS time.  See if it is wrong.
[19:40] <MrMintanet2> Tigger__, Your CMOS battery could be dead
[19:40] <Tigger__> MrMintanet: My battery is ok but my clock losses a little a bit of time now n again
[19:40] <Tigger__> losses
[19:41] <ActionParsnip> BluesKaj: someting like:   route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS> eth0     etc
[19:41] <MrMintanet2> Tigger__, Are your time zone settings accurate?  Have you checked?
[19:41] <Tigger__> the battery is good only losses a little bit
[19:41] <ActionParsnip> BluesKaj: prefix with sudo
[19:41] <alienkid10> BluesKaj:  that's something I know (if t's the IP to connect to the routers config page) where can I add it?
[19:41] <Tigger__> MrMintanet: yes timezone is perfect it just loses a minute or two
[19:41] <gnewb> Tigger__: Check BIOS time is a good starting point as was mentioned by MrMintanet2, also tzdata and some other CLI calls will find it out for you.
[19:42] <BluesKaj> alienkid10, read ActionParsnip 's post to me above
[19:42] <ActionParsnip> alienkid10: sudo route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS> eth0                 change eth0 for the interface you are using and <IP_ADDRESS> for the routers config page IP
[19:42] <alienkid10> ok
[19:42] <Diego1> Hi, I've got a problem between my xubuntu 10.04 and the fn keys, volume knob and dvd-rw, they all stop working after sometime working. Could someone give me a hint of which package manages those?
[19:42] <ActionParsnip> !dvd | Diego1
[19:43] <alienkid10> ActionParsnip: then sudo dhclient eth0
[19:44] <MrMintanet2> What command displays generic hardware information (processor, clock speed, RAM, etc.)  I am not interested in every PCI component (lspci).
[19:44] <Diego1> ubottu: it's blank dvd's which won't work
[19:44] <ActionParsnip> alienkid10: if you already have an IP this isn't necesssary
[19:44] <ActionParsnip> Diego1: what happens when you put blank media in?
[19:44] <BluesKaj> or alienkid10 maybe you'd like to get rid of NM altogether and use this method: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/
[19:45] <alienkid10> ActionParsnip: I ran it and it said no DHCPOFFERS received and none in persistent databases
[19:45] <Tigger__> MrMintanet: & gnewb thank you  for your help it's appreciated :) ... believe me :) all i need to know is will ubuntu correct my time if it a minute or two out when i reboot :)
[19:46] <Diego1> ActionParsnip: nothing at all, I've tried brasero xfburn and k3b all three have worked before, but after an hour or so, neither the dvd recorder nor volume knob or fn keys in keyboard work
[19:46] <alienkid10> is the <IP_ADDRESS> the subnetmask if so then it's wrong
[19:46] <BluesKaj> alienkid10, I have to ask the obvious question , have you checked your connections to the pc and router
[19:47] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: twice
[19:48] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: as I said before this connection worked in Windows before I rebooted into ubuntu
[19:48] <BluesKaj> alienkid10,  run route in the terminal
[19:48] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: what do you want me to look for
[19:48] <MrMintanet2> Tigger__, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime
[19:49] <Tigger__> MrMintanet: thanks buddy :D
[19:49] <BluesKaj> an IP adrress under gateway, alienkid10
[19:50] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: none just * next to link-local and default
[19:50] <Tigger__> MrMintanet: you \re a star mate :D thanks gnewb also mate:D
[19:50] <BluesKaj> or destination , alienkid10
[19:51] <Jezzz> 2nd day of using linux, forgive the noobness of the following:
[19:51] <pupuserc1803c> hirn
[19:51] <angell> Another question besides my audio issue.
[19:51] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: destination only says link-local and default under it
[19:51] <BluesKaj> alienkid10, did you open /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state i the run box as root and enable networking
[19:51] <angell> I wanted to know something else about ubuntu since I am trying to also fix an older laptop as well.
[19:52] <Jezzz> I installed a package "zoneminder".  Install seems to have completed successfully, however I can't find it anywhere.  Where do apps go if thy don't add themself to "Applications"
[19:52] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: no but can
[19:52] <Jezzz> ?
[19:52] <MrMintanet2> Jezzz, Are you certain it installed?  If so, how?
[19:52] <angell> I wanted to know if it was possible that I could maybe get ubuntu to boot up and then finish its install by pulling the rest of the iso via usb?
[19:53] <Jezzz> MrMintanet, "Ubuntu Software Center" shows it as installed.
[19:53] <daniel_tree> hey guys ... I face the sneakiest and the most annoying bug ever...it is since 10.04 I hoped it will go away in time...but it didnt...
[19:53] <uRock> angell, unetbootin can do something like that
[19:53] <BluesKaj> alienkid10, make sure all settings are true
[19:53] <angell> really?
[19:53] <MrMintanet2> Jezzz, You're using 10.10 Desktop?
[19:53] <Jezzz> MrMintanet, yes
[19:53] <daniel_tree> http://pastie.org/1575962
[19:53] <kenneth_reitz> Is there a good apt repo to install python25 on 10.10?
[19:53] <daniel_tree> if someone can take a look ..I would appreciate it
[19:54] <angell> uRock: The system I am dealing with has two partitions and I want one of them gone, though it would be better if I can wipe the whole partition and just put Ubuntu.
[19:54] <Abinadi> !usb | angell
[19:54] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: all are ture
[19:54] <sygnous> anybody know if the current version of mencoder in 10.10 is multithreaded?
[19:54] <alienkid10> true*
[19:54] <tux_> is there a 10.10.1 release scheduled?
[19:55] <daniel_tree> it behaves like this...all of the sudden the keyboard is not responding ...and I get this msg ...acpi exception...(the code I pasted it )
[19:55] <angell> And one more.. Does Ubuntu work with the old cards?? PCMCIA?
[19:55] <Jezzz> MrMintanet, I found a doc that describes how to install and config the  .deb, but i thought going through Software Center would be a bit easier for a beginner.
[19:55] <MrMintanet2> Jezzz, (On the computer with ZM installed) Go to http://localhost/zm/index.php
[19:55] <Diego1> Correction, no cd nor dvd blank or written loads
[19:55] <Pici> tux_: No. Only LTS releases get those minor point releases.
[19:55] <Jezzz> MrMintanet, nothing there
[19:55] <tux_> Pici, cheers
[19:55] <Jezzz> MrMintanet,  I checked var/www as well
[19:55] <digitig> Trying to upgrade Ubunto 10.04 LTS to 10.10 fails with "Could not determine the upgrade". What do I do now?
[19:56] <ActionParsnip> angell: depends on the chip
[19:56] <uRock> digitig, clean install ftw!
[19:56] <YankDownUnder> sygnous, The version of mencoder is: 1.0rc4<IP_ADDRESS>
[19:56] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: this hopeless?
[19:56] <daniel_tree> all I can do is reboot...but when I do..I get the message "system shadowed , bios shadowed " and the laptop keep restarting itself.. to get over it..I have to take the battery off and try again...this way it works
[19:56] <sygnous> YankDownUnder: thanks
[19:56] <ActionParsnip> digitig: do you have ubuntu-desktop   metapackage installed(or similar)
[19:57] <digitig> I've followed the instructions for clean install, I still get the same failure.
[19:57] <BluesKaj> what about network manager , alienkid10 ..have you set it up and also check /etc/network/interfaces
[19:57] <MrMintanet2> Jezzz, Try running the following command:  sudo ln -s /etc/zm/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d/zoneminder.conf
[19:57] <BluesKaj> auto eth0  iface eth0 inet  dhcp
[19:57] <uRock> !clean install
[19:57] <Jezzz> MrMintanet, done
[19:58] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: I never had to set it up before but will check etc/network/interfaces
[19:58] <MrMintanet2> Now try to go to http://localhost/zm
[19:58] <Jezzz> still no
[19:58] <MrMintanet2> Jezzz, Did you install Apache?
[19:58] <Jezzz> yes
[19:58] <Jezzz> and mysql
[19:58] <Jezzz> and php
[19:59] <tim167> hello, i connected a projector to my sony vaio and i get no image, what should i do ?
[19:59] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: auto lo and auto lo inet loopback
[19:59] <Jezzz> MrMintanet,  http://localhost shows the apache default page
[19:59] <ActionParsnip> tim167: if you restart X, is it detected?
[19:59] <Ubuntu-user> please help me fix software sources ?
[19:59] <YankDownUnder> tim167, Preferences => Monitors => make adjustments from there.
[19:59] <MrMintanet2> Ok
[19:59] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: is what cating the file spat back
[19:59] <tim167> ActionParsnip: i cant restart now...
[19:59] <MrMintanet2> Jezzz, Let me check something really fast.
[19:59] <tim167> YankDownUnder: ok i'll check thanks
[19:59] <digitig> uRock: don't understand.
[19:59] <Ubuntu-user> ActionParsnip: help me sort out software sources list?
[20:00] <uRock> digitig, burn the 10.10 iso and do a fresh install
[20:00] <Abinadi> !details | Ubuntu-user
[20:00] <digitig> uRock: can I do that without risking my dual boot?
[20:01] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: auto lo and auto lo inet loopback so eth0 isn't in there
[20:01] <MrMintanet2> Jezzz, Try this: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload
[20:01] <GHH> Can i upgrade Openvas vulnerable scanner please?
[20:01] <Jezzz> MrMintanet, I have restarted since zm install, but trying now
[20:01] <BluesKaj> alienkid10, I recommend this method .. it should work for you ...obviously there something seriosly wrong with network manager .http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/
[20:01] <uRock> upgrading can break your system as easily as clean installing. you should have a backup befoe doing either digitig
[20:02] <Jezzz> MrMintanet, restarting apache did in fact do something positive
[20:02] <Jezzz> MrMintanet,  localhost/zm now shows a summary page of some sort
[20:02] <MrMintanet2> sudo zmfix -a
[20:02] <alienkid10> BluesKaj: will do
[20:02] <MrMintanet2> Jezzz, sudo chown www-data.www-data /usr/share/zoneminder/temp
[20:02] <Jezzz> MrMintanet2, zmfix first?
[20:02] <MrMintanet2> yes
[20:03] <jonathan> hey guys
[20:03] <digitig> uRock: Ok, I'll give it a try. I have good data backups, it's just the time that worries me. Thanks.
[20:03] <uRock> hey jonathan
[20:03] <Jezzz> MrMintanet2, zmfix didn't give  a response.  doing chown now
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntu-user: run:  gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list     and do what you need
[20:04] <GHH> they release 3.2.1 ... Please reply that how i can upgrade openvas
[20:04] <BluesKaj> alienkid10, ActionParsnip recommended the use of /etc/network/interfaces to replace the network manager gui
[20:04] <uRock> digitig, I honestly don't recommend changing the system unless their is some new function you are looking for in 10.10 or if something is wrong with 10.04
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> BluesKaj: I didn't
[20:04] <BluesKaj> you did to me ActionParsnip :)
[20:04] <Diego1> how can I force xubuntu 10.04 to reload a cd (not mounting it), just load media
[20:04] <EmuAlert> I accidentally deleted the Dropbox and volume indicators from my panel. How do I get them back? Neither are in the "add to panel" menu.
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> BluesKaj: but not to alienkid10 :)
