[06:33] <bhavesh> Jordan_U : I read his question about 4 times.. again here it is: whenever i start my computer the message come that choose any one among windows 7 or ubuntu other wise the highlightened will be selected automatically.[windows 7]. what to do to change the default os from windows to ubuntu
[06:33] <sskniranjan> jorda_u ya
[06:33] <Vortex> Jordan_U in that case how would it even be a boot option?
[06:33] <qmanjr5> Um
[06:33] <bhavesh> ofcourse not
[06:33] <qmanjr5> bhavesh, msconfig DOES have a boot order selector
[06:34] <Evanescence> Abhijit: I know, but I need to find out  one already install package which a command belongs to
[06:34] <sskniranjan> i also thought about it vortex. but i didn't have much  knowledge
[06:34] <Vortex> qman - we know it does, but if its not the one that is active from the bootstrap loader then its useless
[06:34] <dr-willis> !info apt-file
[06:34] <Evanescence> dr-willis: can not tell me which options can do this ?
[06:34] <qmanjr5> dr-willis, could you try and help me make this driver work with unity?
[06:34] <bhavesh> qmanjr5, But GRUB is a different one which cannot be edited with msconfig.. can it?
[06:35] <qmanjr5> My mistake. I haven't used Windows in a while
[06:35] <Jordan_U> bhavesh: Vortex: Wubi is a way of installing Ubuntu within a file in your windows partition and without replacing Windows' bootloader.
[06:35] <pp7__> in 11.10 how do u stop the gnome-terminal giving that annoying warning upon exit?
[06:35] <Vortex> Jordan_U i understand, but i did not think it would be accessible as a boot option until after windows loads
[06:35] <Jordan_U> bhavesh: Vortex: So it's not grub that he is seeing (at first at least), it's the Windows bootloader which then loads grub.
[06:35] <dr-willis> qmanjr5:  ive not had any unity and nvudia issues really.
[06:35] <sskniranjan> jordan_u exactly
[06:36] <qmanjr5> :(
[06:36] <qmanjr5> So what should I do?
[06:36] <dr-willis> thetes always the forums and askubuntu.com
[06:36] <qmanjr5> Damn...
[06:36] <Jordan_U> Vortex: Windows has an optional boot menu as well, it's just not normally shown unless you have more than one Windows install (which is fairly rare).
[06:36] <qmanjr5> I may have to uninstall for the night.
[06:36] <qmanjr5> 'cause my  grandpa and brother need the computer for tomorrow
[06:37] <Vortex> Jordan_U: i know this, but i assumed it would not display a boot option for Ubuntu if ubunutu was installed inside of windows
[06:37] <Vortex> Jordan_U but perhaps im wrong
[06:37] <Jordan_U> Vortex: It's not a virtual machine.
[06:37] <Vortex> ah.... ok
[06:38] <Vortex> if its windows boot loader then the msconfig method should work
[06:38] <Vortex> ill dig for a wubi link
[06:38] <sx_ar> Hello, can anyone tell me how to move the unity ribbon from one monitor to another (i'm currently running 3 monitors on ati hd 5770 with the free drivers)
[06:38] <dr-willis> wubi is like aninstall ti a file. that boots
[06:39] <bhavesh> We just dont know which boot loader he sees..
[06:39] <dr-willis> ? ms terms taking over again.
[06:39] <dr-willis> unity panel.:)
[06:39] <Vortex> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#How_do_I_make_Ubuntu_the_default_boot_option.3F
[06:40] <Vortex> so the msconfig way will work
[06:40] <dr-willis> i find its often best to avoid wubi.
[06:40] <Jordan_U> !who | Vortex
[06:42] <shaibn> Hello :) I've got 4 ubuntu servers that I've setup with ntpd and I've given them all 6 servers to update from. I did this about 3 days ago and still, they are not in sync with one another and one of them has a 15min lag behind ...
[06:42] <shaibn> Some have several min. difference between them...
[06:42] <dr-willis> qmanjr5:  did unity2d work? with or without the 3d drivets
[06:44] <bhavesh> Vortex, Yea u were right.. he has a windows boot loader..
[06:46] <qmanjr5> dr-willis, I didn't try unity2d
[06:46] <qmanjr5> I will now
[06:46] <arkiver> hello can anyone tell me which is a good PDF reader besides the default one for natty ?
[06:46] <dr-willis> !pdf
[06:46] <soreau> When I go to Places>Network and click on the windows network icon, it says 'unable to retrieve file list'. Does something need to be installed to be able to view windows machines on the network?
[06:46] <qmanjr5> what's the package name for unity2d, dr-willis ?
[06:46] <dr-willis> unity-2d
[06:46] <qmanjr5> Ah
[06:47] <Vortex> bhavesh: at least that makes things easy
[06:47] <Syd23> arkiver:http://vntutor.blogspot.com/2008/01/top-5-pdf-readers-for-ubuntu-linux.html
[06:47] <dr-willis> soreau:  to view windiws shares. i dont think so
[06:47] <qmanjr5> Alright, gunna try that WM
[06:48] <arkiver> okay thanks alot all !
[06:48] <dr-willis> soreau:  you can also ener the share path. ie...  smb://servernameorip/share
[06:48] <qmanjr5> dr-willis, it works.
[06:48] <meta-coder> How to enable desktop icons in gnome-session-fallback in Oneiric? I enabled the appropriate checkmark in dconf-editor yet the desktop icons won't appear.
[06:48] <soreau> dr_wso I need to install samba?
[06:49] <soreau> dr-willis: ^^
[06:49] <dr-willis> qmanjr5:  sounds like compiz us crashing ir somthing
[06:49] <qmanjr5> :(
[06:49] <dr-willis> soreau:  to make a share.. yes
[06:49] <dr-willis> to vuew a share no
[06:50] <dr-willis> install samba and smbfs if you want
[06:50] <bhavesh> meta-coder, Through "advanced settings" ?
[06:50] <soreau> dr-willis: huh
[06:50] <meta-coder> bhavesh, advanced settings in dconf-editor?
[06:50] <dr-willis> make a share onlinux... you install samba
[06:50] <bhavesh> nope
[06:50] <bhavesh> erm.. 1 sec
[06:50] <Ansikt1> Well, he can use NFS if it's between two Unix boxes...
[06:51] <bhavesh> meta-coder, gnome-tweak-tool
[06:51] <dr-willis> nfs will be faster
[06:51] <denysonique__> After an upgrade to 11.04 the fonts in Chromium are different, differently aliased I guess. How can I revert to the old behaviour?
[06:51] <Ansikt1> And you don't need SAMBA to view windows shares?  I did not know that.
[06:51] <denysonique__> as these new fonts are ugly
[06:51] <dr-willis> sshfs will be more flexiable then nfs ir samba
[06:51] <denysonique__> only chromium is affected by this and firefox
[06:51] <meta-coder> bhavesh, That worked! Thanks!
[06:52] <bhavesh> meta-coder, http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-MepUrW_CjpA/TpcmB4agbwI/AAAAAAAAGSM/v28wmOBBu5k/s400/tweak-tool-handle-desktop.png
[06:52] <Ansikt1> dr-willis:  Well, to be fair, NFS is native, and implimented in the kernel.  It'd be hard to beat htat.
[06:52] <bhavesh> meta-coder, np
[06:52] <dr-willis> sshfs is mire flexiable. but slower
[06:53] <dr-willis> speed is nit everything   :-)
[06:53] <denysonique__> you can use RSync for the speed if you need to sync files
[06:53] <Vortex> must go faster
[06:53] <denysonique__> otherwise NFS (assuming it is a local connection)
[06:53] <Vortex> if im not maxing out my harddrive write ability something has gone wrong :D
[06:54] <dr-willis> sshfs is too handy to not learn about. ;-)
[06:54] <bhavesh> dr-willis, Well How do I set Unity back to default?  should I replace gnome-shell with Unity or with Ubuntu? in
[06:54] <bhavesh> sudo /usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm-set-defaults -s gnome-shell
[06:55] <Ansikt1> dr-willis:  But in a network filesystem, speed is still a pretty big deal.
[06:55] <dr-willis> bhavesh:  no idea. never changed sruff that way
[06:56] <dr-willis> i just let the users oick
[06:56] <dr-willis> pick
[06:56] <Vortex> on any network fileshare server, transfer rates, and catalog parsing times are critical, i dont want workstations sitting around waiting on file to be found.
[06:57] <SetiAmon> hey i installed a game with wine and loaded it and i hear the sound but the screen/window just becomes a distortion.can anyone help me out here?it says the game needs native quartz so i selected the quarts(windows) to run the application
[06:57] <dr-willis> my workstation s often my android phone B-)
[06:57] <Vortex> SetiAmon: I would recheck your graphic card manufacturer for linux drivers
[06:58] <SetiAmon> thats nvidia vortex
[06:58] <SetiAmon> i'm updating wine anyhow
[06:58] <Vortex> SetiAmon: well they support linux very well, so make sure you have latest drivers
[06:58] <dr-willis> !appdn
[06:58] <Syd23> how do i install graphic drivers for my laptop
[06:59] <SetiAmon> I don't think its related to graphics at all.its a wine configuration issue because at first it wouldn't load at all.
[06:59] <dr-willis> !appdb
[06:59] <Vortex> that bot is damn handy sometimes
[06:59] <dr-willis> yep
[07:01] <SetiAmon> dam seems winehq is vacant
[07:02] <bhavesh> dr-willis, Oh it should be change to "ubuntu" and not "unity"
[07:06] <Syd23> hey everybody
[07:06] <Vortex> o/
[07:06] <meta-coder> nautilus-actions crashes on starting. How do I add customized actions to nautilus' context menu?
[07:08] <dr-willis> nautilus had a scripts directory you can use
[07:09] <dr-willis> an iften overlooked feature
[07:10] <dr-willis> bbl
[07:11] <ravn1> j /#unity
[07:11] <meta-coder> dpkg -L nautilus | grep script  doesn't return anything. Where is the scripts dir and how can I use it?
[07:12] <administrator_> dajiahao
[07:12] <SetiAmon> ah you have to download/install the native dll's in winetricks first even if you select them in wine Config?
[07:15] <selite> Can anyone on this earth please help me get unlimited bandwidth from my router?
[07:16] <netking> I installed ubuntu in a VM and it wouldnt go fullscreen. So I installed the virtual box guest additions. Do I need a restart to make it work or what?
[07:16] <selite> Anyone?
[07:16] <_Tristan> 11.10, want gnome 3, gnome-shell doesn't do it, neither does gnome-session-fallback. How?
[07:17] <Stanley00> meta-coder: they're in ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts
[07:17] <Jordan_U> !notunity | _Tristan
[07:17] <selite> Stop treating me like a nood and help me
[07:17] <_Tristan> every guide says to install gnome-shell, but that gives me something identical to gnome-session-fallback, and it installs gnome-session-fallback as well
[07:17] <Jordan_U> _Tristan: The important part of that being the entry you need to select in the Sessions dropdown.
[07:18] <_Tristan> Jordan_U: Tried all of them
[07:18] <Jordan_U> !patience | selite
[07:18] <Jordan_U> _Tristan: What happens when you select the "GNOME" session?
[07:19] <selite> ubottu: But I know that they know the answer.
[07:19] <_Tristan> Jordan_U: I get the gnome-session-fallback with super-ugly-ui and non-gnome3-ness
[07:19] <Jordan_U> selite: How do you know that someone knows the answer?
[07:19] <Jordan_U> _Tristan: Do you have 3D drivers installed that provide the needed 3D acceleration?
[07:20] <selite> Jordan_U: There are a lot of smart guys.
[07:20] <_Tristan> no, I don't, I have optimus so that's a no-no
[07:20] <_Tristan> I did, however, get gnome3 to work on this box before... I just don't remember how
[07:21] <SetiAmon> i have a single old geforce 7900 Gs
[07:21] <bhavesh> I type ./configure and it makes the makefile.am and makefile.in in my directory but when I type "make" it says no makefile found.. (im trying to install unico gtk3 engine)
[07:21] <bhavesh> im sure the terminal is currently at the right dir
[07:21] <Jordan_U> selite: That doesn't mean that someone knows the answer to your specific question. It might also help if you described your problem in more detail. What bandwidth are you getting now? What bandwidth do you expect?
[07:22] <selite> Jordan_U: I have 30GB bandwidth I am paying around 40$ in other words my ISP is robbing me. I was just curious to know if there is a way to bypass their shitty bandwidth limit. Sorry for language.
[07:22] <bhavesh> _Tristan, installing gnome-shell installs gnome-session-fallback too
[07:23] <_Tristan> selite: compressed proxy
[07:23] <Jordan_U> selite: An apology in the same line as the offense you are apologising for is not sincere.
[07:23] <Vortex> selite: sneak into thier facility and change the limit
[07:24] <selite> Jordan_U: Okay sorry.
[07:24] <_Tristan> or just build a large wifi dish and point it at a library within a few miles
[07:24] <nbubuntu> hi I need help on java .When I run an application on terminal it shows error on it

[07:32] <sx_ar> Hello, can anyone tell me how to move the unity ribbon from one monitor to another (i'm currently running 3 monitors on ati hd 5770 with the free drivers)
[07:33] <lotuspsychje> selite: like in isp bandwith limits?
[07:33] <selite> lotuspsychje: Exactly
[07:33] <lotuspsychje> selite: if isp controls bandwith there isnt a way around, if its router setting and you can access router you can change
[07:34] <selite> lotuspsychje: How do I know whether the ISP or the router limits it?
[07:35] <lotuspsychje> selite: you can try portforward.com and search for your router brand, check settings first
[07:36] <selite> lotuspsychje: Can't find it on the list. My router is Speedport W 503V.

[07:44] <nbubuntu> Anyone know what's the error about ? running on java ,  http://pastebin.com/BRsmAN5K , thanks :)
[07:44] <Ibis> lotuspsychje: Or use: sudo apt-get update                  in terminal

[07:59] <King_Ozzy> Welcome to freenode, love.
[07:59] <zus> ubuntu one!
[07:59] <dc5ala> srihari, have you checked that your swap partition is at least as big as your memory?
[08:00] <Ibis> lotuspsychje: You need to import key too.
[08:00] <lotuspsychje> Ibis: i did too
[08:01] <srihari> dc5ala: yes it is , swap = 3GB ram 2GB
[08:01] <dc5ala> srihari, okay, was just an idea
[08:02] <srihari> dc5ala: I had to use acpi=off and such things in older versions to boot..not sure if it is there now..would that have something to do ?
[08:02] <Ibis> Did you tried sudo apt-get install nntpgrab
[08:02] <Ibis> ?
[08:03] <pikaciu> hi there !
[08:04] <skiddyfisk> How would one recalibrate a touchscreen in 11.10?
[08:05] <pikaciu> i can automount my floppy in nautilus as root , but i cannot as simple user. why ?
[08:05] <pikaciu> thanx
[08:06] <pikaciu> my fstab seems ok
[08:07] <dc5ala> pikaciu, there is a group "floppy" that may have something to do with it, is your user in that group?
[08:07] <lotuspsychje> lol
[08:07] <pikaciu> yep
[08:07] <lotuspsychje> Ibis: tnx mate it worked, ive should have thinked of that :p
[08:08] <pikaciu> it's oddy because after the root-mount i can umount as user !!!
[08:08] <lotuspsychje> Ibis: so why would software centre not find the package and apt-get find?
[08:10] <dc5ala> pikaciu, can you show the output of "id username"?
[08:11] <pikaciu> id: username: No such user
[08:11] <dc5ala> pikaciu, replace username with your user, sorry
[08:11] <pikaciu> uid=1000(sabayon) gid=119(admin) groups=119(admin),0(root),4(adm),6(disk),20(dialout),24(cdrom),25(floppy),26(tape),44(video),46(plugdev),100(users),104(fuse),111(lpadmin),122(sambashare)
[08:13] <dc5ala> pikaciu, looks okay, except the root group, but is not the cause of that problem
[08:13] <pikaciu> :*
[08:16] <celltech> I read it's good to recompress mp3's to save space and help optimize their playback
[08:17] <dc5ala> pikaciu, can you show the line of fstab for your floppy?
[08:17] <MrMind> anybody here that likes unity? or is unity as crappy that people say?
[08:18] <pikaciu> /dev/fd0u1440         /home/sabayon/ooo     auto    users,rw,noauto,exec    0     0
[08:18] <pikaciu> (fd0 doesn't work)
[08:19] <Debolaz> MrMind: I like Unity. I use it primarily on my netbook though, where the interface is far superior to anything else I've encountered.
[08:20] <dc5ala> pikaciu, your mount point looks bit odd too, why not /media/floppy? And then if you need that add a symlink from that ooo to /media/floppy
[08:20] <ghabit> MrMind, unity is nice, but I'm for example using gnome-shell.
[08:20] <pikaciu>  it was like you said before
[08:20] <ghabit> MrMind, depends of that what you want.
[08:20] <dc5ala> pikaciu, and i think it's "user" and not "users" in that line
[08:20] <pikaciu> i tried both
[08:21] <pikaciu> the line was like you said befor
[08:21] <the-m0bster> hi
[08:22] <pikaciu>  media/floppy0
[08:22] <MrMind> okey, I think I try 11.10 in virtualbox first and see how I like it or not =)
[08:22] <_Tristan> I encrypted my ~/Private folder, my home folder was backed up, and I just restored that backup. How do I get into my private folder? It used to be mounted when I logged in.
[08:22] <_Tristan> (had to reinstall the os)
[08:23] <pikaciu> with a symlink to floppy
[08:23] <dc5ala> pikaciu, what error do you get when trying to mount it as your user?
[08:23] <pikaciu> no error ... it just doesn't show
[08:24] <the-m0bster> i installed gnome 3 in 11.10 but had some issues with it so i uninstalled it. but when i removed the gnome shell, it also removed the recovery console option that i used to get at the lightdm login screen. how do i get it back?
[08:24] <pikaciu> when i start nautilus as root the floppy automount and that's it
[08:24] <SetiAmon> this is so strange
[08:24] <SetiAmon> hey
[08:24] <SetiAmon> I really  need some help here
[08:24] <pikaciu> as user ... no :-/
[08:25] <SetiAmon> I'm running wine,a game i installed it and everything.i load it up and hear it and can effect it with joystick but there is no graphical display,just a black screen
[08:25] <dc5ala> pikaciu, that's strange, could at least imagine you get something like a operation not permitted or at least a hint =/
[08:25] <SetiAmon> i have never used wine before,can anyone help me out
[08:25] <nicofs> my laptop is connected to the internet via wlan hotspot from my smartphone. i can ping google (about 250ms) - but i can't open google (or any website) in a browser, pidgin and xchat fail to login. what's wrong?
[08:25] <pikaciu> no, sorry
[08:25] <dc5ala> pikaciu, oh, i mean not mount it in nautilus but on command line, but brb, need more coffee supplies, afk a bit :)

[08:28] <michael_imac> hi all
[08:29] <zus> oh well if one had an existing ubuntu one account does the new 5 gig for free get grandfathered in?
[08:29] <michael_imac> I'm getting connection refused errors for mail sent through sendmail
[08:29] <michael_imac> any suggestions?
[08:29] <dc5ala> pikaciu, oh? Now that surprises me but also make me get out of ideas at the moment :)
[08:29] <pikaciu> :°°°°°°°°
[08:30] <pikaciu> thanx
[08:34] <iceroot> everythink lsmod is listening is NOT build into the kernel directly? are these always extra packages which are bringing the modules? or can the kernel-package also contain extra modules?
[08:34] <RudyValencia> OK does cp -a *-20110603 /destination only copy directories ending "-20110603" ?

[08:39] <applesouce> I've got Ubuntu 11.04 x64 on my notebook
[08:40] <applesouce> Now I want to upgrade to 11.10
[08:40] <applesouce> Is that possible without loosing much data?
[08:40] <iceroot> !upgrade | applesouce
[08:40] <LongRender> applesouce: you should not loose any. I didn't
[08:40] <iceroot> applesouce: remeber, gnome2 is not in 11.10. also making a backup first is always a good idea
[08:41] <applesouce> Same thing with Backtrack 5 to Backtrack 5 R1?
[08:41] <georgedo> can anyone help me with setting optimum video resolution on Ubuntu. I have Ubuntu installed as a VM in VirtualBox on a macbook pro
[08:41] <iceroot> applesouce: not supported here
[08:41] <applesouce> Well at least I tried xD
[08:42] <georgedo> what if everything else was the same except that it was installed on a windows
[08:42] <LongRender> Any one got any thoughts as to why my Unity launcher open behind all one screen windows?
[08:43] <cvam> Is Dual Core E5400 an i386 architecture or i686 ?
[08:43] <lotuspsychje> should unity 2d work for every computer?
[08:43] <iceroot> cvam: both
[08:43] <LongRender> cvam: should be i686
[08:43] <Jordan_U> georgedo: Do you have the VirtualBox tools installed in Ubuntu?
[08:43] <iceroot> cvam: ah sorry,
[08:43] <iceroot> cvam: i686
[08:43] <georgedo> i'm not sure
[08:44] <dc5ala> LongRender, seems to be a bug, had that a few times too
[08:44] <LongRender> dc5ala: any cure?

[08:45] <Bragex9> I still have problems configuring samba properly. I have finally managed my ubuntu home folder with it's subfolders appear on my windows machine, but I get refused when I try to access any folder. The error message in windows says wrong password. I want passwords to be disabled. Can anyone check the pastebin: http://pastebin.com/PJtvAUZd
[08:45] <King_Ozzy> maybe
[08:45] <cvam> In Ubuntu site there is no download link to oneiric  for i686 arch ?
[08:45] <michael_imac> guys I'm still having sendmail issues
[08:46] <michael_imac> for my outgoing mail to work must the servers hostname (with subdomain) be present in my DNS Zone?
[08:46] <michael_imac> webapp.mydomain.com
[08:46] <dc5ala> LongRender, haven't heard of one yet. Maybe can search for bug report if someone posted a work around yet
[08:46] <michael_imac> Deferred: Connection refused  <<--- I'm getting these by google etc.
[08:46] <michael_imac> trying to locally sendmail from the server

[08:48] <llutz> michael_imac: you have a static-ip/own domain, not from any dial-up-ip-range?
[08:48] <michael_imac> the server has an ip belonging to our server pool
[08:48] <michael_imac> 195.226.x.x.
[08:49] <georgedo> there isn't a default terminal command for video resolution in ubuntu 11.04 - 11.10 ?
[08:49] <michael_imac> I've got an A record on our domain for the subdomain pointing to the server's public address

[08:49] <michael_imac> and I've set ubuntu's hostname as webapp.mydomain.org
[08:49] <michael_imac> BUT
[08:49] <sskniranjan> sir whenever open the empathy it automatically logins my both registered account i.e facebook and irc. its not my problemy. what my problem was that fb gets connected but for irc each time chanserv says that ur password is invalid and says to enter /msg identify <password> and each time i mention the same password given previously in the empathy it then identifies . why it is happening
[08:49] <sskniranjan> what to do it get it resolved
[08:49] <michael_imac> hosts is only listed for <IP_ADDRESS> localhost
[08:50] <michael_imac> llutz: any ideas?
[08:50] <llutz> michael_imac: so it won't resolve in reverse?
[08:50] <michael_imac> reverse which way :)
[08:50] <michael_imac> from the WAN side?
[08:50] <auronandace> sskniranjan: it is a feature, your nick is registered and you have to identify
[08:50] <sskniranjan> plzz help me
[08:50] <michael_imac> well I only just added the subdomain to our DNS so it might be a while...
[08:51] <michael_imac> i.e. webapps.outdomain.org ----> WAN IP that is.
[08:51] <g0th> why are there two versions of libreoffice?
[08:51] <llutz> michael_imac: should work...
[08:52] <michael_imac> llutz should I create an MX Record?
[08:52] <llutz> michael_imac: yes
[08:52] <michael_imac> I've got one for the TLD though.
[08:52] <michael_imac> only for the tld
[08:52] <michael_imac> so I don't want this clashing with that MX.
[08:53] <llutz> michael_imac: maybe you should send your mails from webapps to your tlds mailserver for delivering then

[08:55] <sskniranjan> thanx auronandance
[08:55] <cvam> auronandace:Is i686 mean 64 bit ?
[08:55] <auronandace> cvam: you still haven't answered my question
[08:55] <auronandace> cvam: no, 32bit
[08:56] <cvam> auronandace: I want to download oneiric
[08:56] <iceroot> cvam: no
[08:56] <auronandace> !download | cvam
[08:56] <iceroot> cvam: amd64 means 64bit, i686 means 32bit
[08:56] <michael_imac> llutz I'm using sendmail though?
[08:56] <iceroot> cvam: and amd64 is also used on intel-cpus
[08:57] <llutz> michael_imac: sendmail is overkill for this task
[08:57] <cvam> auronandace: only i386 version available
[08:57] <iceroot> cvam: i686 can run i386
[08:57] <auronandace> cvam: that is 32bit, i686 supports i386
[08:58] <iceroot> cvam: use the amd64 version
[08:58] <auronandace> iceroot: not all dualcore processors are 64bit
[08:58] <cvam> aurorandace:one person suggest to download 64bit
[08:58] <michael_imac> llutz: I've setup the MX
[08:58] <michael_imac> and it's resolving
[08:59] <dc5ala> LongRender, found an older bug report here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/810285
[08:59] <michael_imac> as is the A record
[08:59] <michael_imac> still getting connection refused
[08:59] <iceroot> auronandace: core2duo is amd64, core duo os sometimes only i686
[08:59] <auronandace> iceroot: does he have a core2duo or a core duo?
[08:59] <llutz> michael_imac: literally "connection refused"? that usually means "wrong port" or "no services listening here"...
[09:00] <michael_imac> I've not opened sendmail to receive btw
[09:00] <michael_imac> only want to send out
[09:00] <auronandace> cvam: check with wikipedia to see if your cpu supports 64bit
[09:01] <llutz> michael_imac: if the mailserver denies your mails, it should give a "5xx" error (or at leat 4xx for temporary things)
[09:01] <LongRender> dc5ala: unity& disown - type that into a terminal and it fixes it. that way you don't need to log out and back in again
[09:01] <iceroot> auronandace: e5400 is amd64
[09:01] <michael_imac> 050<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Deferred: Connection refused by alt4.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com.
[09:01] <zus> how can i change  which user logs into ubuntu one?
[09:01] <iceroot> cvam: your cpu is supporting 64bit so use amd64
[09:02] <auronandace> iceroot: good stuff, i remember having a dualcore t60 but it was only 32bit (that is why i mentioned it)
[09:03] <dc5ala> LongRender, using gnome-shell :P But if you want you can add your informations to that bug report.
[09:03] <iceroot> auronandace: yes, must be a core duo instead of core2duo
[09:03] <Vortex> <- i5 2500k, runs fine
[09:03] <auronandace> iceroot: yes
[09:03] <llutz> michael_imac: does this help? http://objectmix.com/sendmail/207531-deferred-connection-refused-%5Bany-host%5D.html
[09:04] <michael_imac> llutz do I need to masquerade hosts?
[09:05] <llutz> michael_imac: sry cannot help you with sendmail, i haven't used that monster since 199x, i prefer postfix (as full mta) or mstmp for delivery only.
[09:05] <michael_imac> yeah it's pretty much like that
[09:05] <zus> so no one uses ubuntu one  or has a clue?
[09:05] <michael_imac> tried to connect several times to gmail
[09:05] <michael_imac> just like that
[09:06] <zus> how can i change  which user logs into ubuntu one?
[09:06] <Vortex> zus: 1 sec ill check
[09:06] <zus> thanks  Vortex
[09:09] <panda> hi

[09:10] <Guest77431> I have a question regarding Power Management, there is a maximum wait time of 1 hour before my desktop screen turns off, I don't want it to turn off, at all. How can I do this?
[09:10] <Guest77431> I'm using Ubuntu 11.10
[09:10] <zus> right, Vortex   but when open and closing it  it auto opens to my old account not my new one.. and i cant change the fields to switch.
[09:11] <folivora> Jarhead: Edit power profiles, theere u can setup everything regarding power settings....
[09:11] <auronandace> Jarhead: put the slider at the biginning
[09:11] <zus> and there isnt an irc channel for ubuntu one?
[09:11] <iceroot> Jarhead``: at the left there is "never" at the right there is "1 hour"
[09:11] <Jarhead``> Settings -> Screen -> Turn off after: 1 hour. 1 hour is the maximum available, there is no Never option
[09:11] <Vortex> zus: after it loads up, can you get into the settings, and disable auto-login?
[09:12] <Jarhead``> I have a drop down selection, not a slider?
[09:12] <zus> lemme check Vortex
[09:12] <Jarhead``> maybe I should downgrade to the LTS
[09:13] <auronandace> Jarhead``: would it be at the top of the list?
[09:13] <zus> nope Vortex
[09:14] <Vortex> zus: and theres nothing in there about users either? hmm
[09:14] <Jarhead``> No, my choices are: 1 minute, 2, 3, 5, 10, 20 minutes & 1 hour
[09:14] <Jarhead``> that's all
[09:14] <zus> personal details, and a edit account details option which takes you to the web page, but nothing on what i am asking about
[09:15] <auronandace> Jarhead``: can you take a screenshot?
[09:16] <Jarhead``> sure
[09:16] <dc5ala> Jarhead``, on the bottom of the list i have a "Never"

[09:30] <auronandace> edge555: backtrack isn't supported here
[09:30] <edge555> i have the command with the driver
[09:30] <auronandace> !backtrack | edge555
[09:30] <bazhang> edge555, #backtrack-linux for that
[09:30] <edge555> ok have a good sunday
[09:31] <zus> !mint
[09:32] <KatsumeBlisk> zus: That was weird... I was thinking about running that command at the EXACT time you did. XD
[09:32] <zus> Kateon,  :)

[09:32] <zus> KatsumeBlisk,  :)
[09:32] <KatsumeBlisk> edge555: "/join #backtrack-linux"
[09:33] <KatsumeBlisk> zus: I was curious what it did because the others didn't have a command for their channels. XD
[09:33] <zus> KatsumeBlisk,  same here, but i saw their irc server and just addded it to my  client
[09:34] <auronandace> KatsumeBlisk: because those channels are all on freenode, mint's isn't
[09:35] <zus> no one is  awake in the  ubuntu one channel,  does any one have an idea on how i can get to my account? it keeps opening up with my other account
[09:36] <zee> Hi, for a Pentium3  1Ghz  512mb RAM  laptop, which should I install?  Ubuntu 10.04LTS, Xubuntu, Lubuntu or Puppy Linux?
[09:36] <KatsumeBlisk> zee: I recommend Lubuntu
[09:36] <bazhang> zee, lubuntu probably would be the best
[09:36] <Jarhead``> Who was it that was after the screen shot? http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/3894/workspace1002.png
[09:36] <KatsumeBlisk> zee: Ubuntu would run fine, but I think it'd be a bit slow.
[09:36] <Jarhead``> auronandace, ^^
[09:37] <auronandace> Jarhead``: saw it, thanks, that is odd: no never option
[09:37] <zee> KatsumeBlisk: Lubuntu 10.04LTS  or 11.10?
[09:37] <Jarhead``> yea, that's what I thought :P
[09:38] <KatsumeBlisk> zee: Doesn't really matter. Do you want something super stable until 2013 or something uptodate?
[09:38] <KatsumeBlisk> zee: Something uptodate that is still pretty stable?
[09:38] <bazhang> zee, there is not an LTS for lubuntu afaik
[09:38] <KatsumeBlisk> bazhang: Yes there is
[09:38] <bazhang> zee, go for 11.10
[09:38] <KatsumeBlisk> bazhang: It just wasn't an official derivative back then.
[09:38] <Jarhead``> auronandace, can I configure this via terminal or something?
[09:38] <auronandace> KatsumeBlisk: not for lubuntu
[09:39] <bazhang> KatsumeBlisk, link? it's not official so hardly likely to be LTS
[09:39] <Jarhead``> maybe make the timeout a very large number
[09:39] <auronandace> Jarhead``: sorry, not sure, i use xfce
[09:39] <zee> bazhang : Is 11.10 stable?
[09:39] <bazhang> zee, sure.
[09:39] <KatsumeBlisk> zee: Yes
[09:40] <venice__> hi i'm experiencing unreasonably long boot times on a fresh install of 11.10, corresponding dmesg is http://pastebin.com/g0kdi5kB and a typical  boot chart is http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/52/unicornoneiric201110231.png/ , any ideas would be helpful. 120 seconds or more certainly  seem out of place since the system used to boot in about 45 seconds with 11.04 or the versions before it. :)
[09:41] <KatsumeBlisk> Apparently it isn't. I thought it was because it was 10.04 and that was LTS. I don't see how it isn't LTS since those repos are updated, but they say it isn't...
[09:41] <KatsumeBlisk> I don't really care either because I use 11.10. XD
[09:42] <zee> KatsumeBlisk : would libreOffice work fine on Lubuntu 11.10?
[09:42] <michael_imac> anyone familiar with sendmail?
[09:42] <KatsumeBlisk> zee: Yes. You just have to install it.
[09:42] <dr-willis> zee any apps should work fine
[09:42] <auronandace> zee: remember to install from the repos

[09:43] <ekakela> I have a small problem with ubuntu server 10.11 installer. The Partitioning tool shows only the scsi volumes, but I have one sata volume hanging around too and it allways tries to put mbr there during installation. I'd like to have the whole installation on those SCSI volumes, any neat trick to make it happen? :D
[09:44] <zee> ubottu: thanks for the tip.
[09:44] <KatsumeBlisk> ekakela: It should ask you where you want to install GRUB at the end.
[09:45] <KatsumeBlisk> Does anyone know if you have to keep Thunderbird running to get the notifications?

[09:46] <Guest54999>  Can someone help me with apache2, I tried lamp from TASKSEL and apt-get install lamp-server^ and both times I get apache2: Syntax error on line 230 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default: No such file or directory Action 'start' failed. --------------------- this is on a fresh 11.10 install
[09:47] <bassliner> i sometimes encounter this bug with unity: http://nerdhost.de/bug.png - anyone else having this?
[09:48] <ekakela> KatsumeBlisk: Atleast with normal installation mode it doesn't, trying with the expert mode now
[09:48] <ekakela> Could it be that it won't work with hardware RAID0?
[09:49] <KatsumeBlisk> ekakela: I've never tried the 11.10 one, I use the LTS for servers, but at the end it asks if those were the detected OSes and do you want to install GRUB. If you hit no, I think you'll choose what partition or disk to install it to. It's been a while, so i don't remember fully.
[09:49] <sskniranjan> i use gwibber but it doesn't either show my status also it doesn't send my messages for my authorised facebook account.plz any help me
[09:50] <ekakela> KatsumeBlisk: Thank you, will try :)
[09:50] <KatsumeBlisk> ekakela: No problem. Hopefully, that fixes it.

[09:52] <MrMind> which drivers should I use for my nvidia gt240? the post realese or not?
[09:52] <g0th> in standard oneiric ubuntu
[09:53] <sskniranjan> !helpme|bazhang
[09:53] <bazhang> sskniranjan, dont do that
[09:54] <sskniranjan> sorry. but plz sort my prob out
[09:54] <saymoo> g0th: could be: a development version (likely with a -dev in the name) and a normal version
[09:54] <saymoo> not sure though
[09:54] <bazhang> sskniranjan, stop repeating every five seconds. if someone knows they will help
[09:54] <sskniranjan> okay
[09:55] <sskniranjan> but i wonder how they would find my q in this long list
[09:55] <Beta____> Hi! Someone that can help me with an Optimus laptop? Seen someone editing his DSDT to get the nvidia vga off... but I can't find it anymore :(
[09:57] <saymoo> Good morning, midnight, or afternoon ;)
[09:57] <CodeOmegaPrime> I am running 11.10 with GNOME3 Desktop installed and the menu bar at the top is really really think like its repeated with nothing in it. I have googled for hours and cannot fix. Does anyone have any ideas?
[09:58] <KatsumeBlisk> saymoo: Does "good some-time-of-day" work? ;)
[09:58] <SetiAmon> anyone here familiar with dual monitors?
[09:58] <auronandace> CodeOmegaPrime: screenshot?
[09:58] <SetiAmon> dual monitor users here?
[09:58] <CodeOmegaPrime> auronandace getting you one now
[09:58] <auronandace> !anyone | SetiAmon
[09:59] <BBgamer> Hey. Does anyone know if it's possible to get Banshee 2.2 on Ubuntu 10.4 (Lucid)? The PPA only seems to have 2.01.
[09:59] <saymoo> KatsumeBlisk: sure ;) as long as it´s good
[09:59] <auronandace> BBgamer: i hope you know that ppas are not supported
[09:59] <SetiAmon> Twinview seems to mess with the detection of games,it combines my to displays to say i have 3050x whatever anyhow I tried the 'seperate x-windows' but it seems it just doesn't work in gnome/unity.the right window is just dead
[09:59] <sskniranjan> !anyone|BBgamer
[10:00] <SetiAmon> so is gnome-3/unity completly unable to use Seperate X-Windows configuration
[10:00] <auronandace> sskniranjan: stop that, he asked his question
[10:00] <KatsumeBlisk> sskniranjan: There wasn't really any other way to ask that question.
[10:00] <sskniranjan> ok reply my question
[10:01] <CodeOmegaPrime> dauronandace http://tinypic.com/r/etv508/7
[10:01] <auronandace> sskniranjan: be patient
[10:01] <bazhang> sskniranjan, thats not the way to get help here. please stop it.
[10:01] <KatsumeBlisk> sskniranjan: Apparently, no one knows the answer to your Gwibber question.
[10:01] <sskniranjan> ok
[10:01] <cutiyar> how to recovery my files?
[10:02] <auronandace> CodeOmegaPrime: wow, looks like the panel has been resized
[10:02] <sskniranjan> and sorry for the mischief
[10:02] <CodeOmegaPrime> auronandace : how do I reset?
[10:02] <auronandace> CodeOmegaPrime: no idea sorry, i use xfce (can't stand unity or gnome)
[10:03] <BBgamer> So, I'll rephrase my question. Is there any possible means of getting banshee 2.2 on 10.04?
[10:03] <auronandace> BBgamer: i fail to see the point of using an lts if you are going to install unsupported software
[10:05] <auronandace> !ppa | BBgamer
[10:06] <auronandace> BBgamer: the point of an lts is for long term support, if you install unsupported software you won't get support thus invalidating the point of using an lts
[10:06] <auronandace> BBgamer: also please ask permission before pm-ing people
[10:06] <auronandace> sskniranjan: don't pm me
[10:06] <BBgamer> Thanks for the help anyway.
[10:07] <sskniranjan> sorry auronandace
[10:07] <auronandace> ok
[10:07] <auronandace> sskniranjan: i don't use gwibber so i can't help you
[10:07] <sskniranjan> if u can solve the gwibber prob
[10:08] <sskniranjan> okaykk
[10:08] <CodeOmegaPrime> does anyone know how to resize the panel in gdm?
[10:08]  * saymoo looks up what gwibber is
[10:08] <auronandace> CodeOmegaPrime: that screenshot looked like the desktop not gdm
[10:08] <KatsumeBlisk> saymoo: Social media client
[10:08] <CodeOmegaPrime> well yes I ment the desktop sorry
[10:09] <saymoo> KatsumeBlisk: yep, indeed.. hmmm
[10:09] <crus> hi everyone, i'm having a problem with dns resolution on ubuntu 11.10.. I have a name server set in my /etc/network/interfaces file.. but it doesn't seem to be using it.
[10:09] <auronandace> CodeOmegaPrime: can you rightclick and resize?
[10:09] <crus> if i do nslookup and set the server to what i have in my interfaces file, i can do nslookups :O
[10:10] <SetiAmon> 3520x1200 it says is my resolution.I have dual monitors. how can i dedicate the operations of a application to a specific monitor and not let it detect the other monitor?
[10:10] <saymoo> crus: eh yes?
[10:10] <murmurs> hi
[10:10] <CodeOmegaPrime> auronandace nope it wont let me
[10:11] <crus> saymoo: is that a question?
[10:11] <saymoo> crus: more an answer
[10:11] <murmurs> could anyone tell me if it's possible for someone to maliciously wipe an entire directory over the internet?
[10:11] <auronandace> CodeOmegaPrime: is there some sort of settings manager for the panel?
[10:11] <Jerrak0s> hi dudes
[10:11] <crus> saymoo: do you speak english?
[10:11] <saymoo> crus: yes
[10:11] <murmurs> and how would you find out if that has happened?
[10:11] <auronandace> CodeOmegaPrime: i'm guessing here because i don't use gnome
[10:12] <CodeOmegaPrime> np I appreciate the help though I really do
[10:12] <KatsumeBlisk> murmurs: I guess it's /possible/, but REALLY unlikely.
[10:12] <crus> perhaps this illistrates the problem better: http://paste.pound-python.org/show/14120/
[10:12] <murmurs> KatsumeBlisk, would it be some sort of script with the "rm -r " command inside?
[10:13] <bhavesh> Internet on my Netbook is still not working. To fix It I need to download a few packages(autoconf, kernel-devel...etc) : http://rhythmcloud.blogspot.com/2010/07/how-to-install-ar8151-v10-gigabit.html   : But how am I supposed to do that without a internet connection?
[10:13] <KatsumeBlisk> murmurs: I guess, but you'd probably have to run it. I'm not too versed in malware on Linux because it's so rare.
[10:13] <KatsumeBlisk> murmurs: That'd be the command to delete a directory via the command line though.
[10:13] <murmurs> KatsumeBlisk, ah, yeah same here so I'm trying to find out more.
[10:14] <sskniranjan> i connec my nokia mobile x press music through data cable bu i couldn't locate. so that i coul access its foile and other thing. where to see that
[10:14] <murmurs> KatsumeBlisk, I'm not sure whether this was malicious or whether the hd is failing and randomly wiped a directory clean.
[10:14] <KatsumeBlisk> bhavesh: We don't support Fedora, but you'd probably have an ethernet cable plugged in to do it.
[10:14] <bhavesh> KatsumeBlisk, was that for fedora?
[10:14] <KatsumeBlisk> murmurs: I think you have a better chance of the HDD failing than you coming across a virus for Linux
[10:15] <murmurs> I guess there's a record of all commands executed on the system? do you know where I would find that?
[10:15] <murmurs> ah
[10:15] <bhavesh> oh yea
[10:15] <KatsumeBlisk> bhavesh: "yum install" is Fedora and it says Fedora 13 on that page.
[10:15] <dr-willis> hd failure common. ;)
[10:15] <bhavesh> my bad
[10:15] <saymoo> crus: as i understand from this paste, you want to do a lookup using itś own ip (eth0) and that fails, but using the gateway, it works. correct?
[10:16] <crus> saymoo: i have my name server set as my gateway address.. i can even do nslookups using that address.. but the ping command and other commands dont seem to resolve addresses
[10:16] <dr-willis> murmurs:  for a specific user? or from sudo ussage?
[10:16] <murmurs> sudo usage
[10:16] <KatsumeBlisk> murmurs: Where was this directory?
[10:16] <murmurs> home/user/workspace/www
[10:17] <dr-willis> well the user has a .history file. and i think sudo has some extra logging feature. but im not sure if its enabled by default
[10:17] <KatsumeBlisk> murmurs: That doesn't require root to delete, so it's possible...
[10:17] <murmurs> oh
[10:17] <bhavesh> Is it really impossible to get build-essential package without a internet connection?
[10:17] <KatsumeBlisk> bhavesh: Have you tried using the Additional Drivers tool?
[10:17] <saivnoba> hi anybody having problem with ubuntu cds.
[10:18] <dr-willis> bhavesh:   that package pulls in a dozen+ other packages
[10:18] <saivnoba> i downloaded 64bit ubuntu-11.10 cd
[10:18] <KatsumeBlisk> saivnoba: What's wrong?
[10:18] <zus> ubuntu one wont let me change which account i can log in with.... anyone  know  how to change this?!!!
[10:18] <SetiAmon> last two distro's display wrong.and there is this irritating "no graphic mode selected" boot that still remains
[10:18] <crus> saymoo: seems the upgrade to 11.10 blew away my resolv.conf file.. all working again now.
[10:18] <sskniranjan> in my gwibber i had a authorised facebook account . it doesn't show the status update and even it doesn't send my messages
[10:18] <saivnoba> but i'm not able to boot whether i burn it to a cd or use unetbootin and create a liveusb
[10:18] <bhavesh> KatsumeBlisk, Additional drivers is only for video drivers I guess
[10:19] <KatsumeBlisk> bhavesh: I've had wireless come up on my netbook there.
[10:19] <saivnoba> i do check md5sums. I tried downloading after a day and same issue.
[10:19] <KatsumeBlisk> saivnoba: What's wrong?
[10:19] <saymoo> crus: i was just thinking of resolv.conf, but was not sure if it was needed in case of static setup (where the dns is given in the config).
[10:19] <murmurs> dr-willis, where would I find the user's ".history" file?
[10:19] <saymoo> crus: but ok, it works again.. :)
[10:19] <saivnoba> i even downloaded 11.10-alternate cd. none of the images are booting (either with cd or usb)
[10:19] <dr-willis> murmurs:  use history command. ior look at the file in the users home dir
[10:19] <KatsumeBlisk> saivnoba: Have you configured BIOS correctly?
[10:20] <saivnoba> yes. all my other cd/dvds boot up properly.
[10:20] <murmurs> k, I'll give it a go now
[10:20] <ekakela> KatsumeBlisk: Funny, thanks to you I got it finally to boot but now it halts on "Stopping read required files in advance"
[10:20] <dr-willis> saivnoba:  what does it do instead of booting?
[10:20] <KatsumeBlisk> saivnoba: Did you burn with the same utility as the other discs that boot properly?
[10:20] <KatsumeBlisk> ekakela: This is after the install?
[10:21] <saivnoba> dr-willis: it boots from my harddrive instead.
[10:21] <ekakela> Yes, this is after install and first time booting atm
[10:21] <saivnoba> KatsumeBlisk: yes. i use brasero. or unetbootin for usb
[10:21] <KatsumeBlisk> ekakela: I don't know. Sorry.
[10:21] <ekakela> Okay, well thanks anyways :)
[10:21] <sskniranjan> bhavesh mada karo na yaar
[10:21] <ekakela> got alot further than any time before
[10:21] <bhavesh> sskniranjan, in PM <
[10:22] <KatsumeBlisk> saivnoba: Are these the same disks too?
[10:22] <dr-willis> saivnoba:  you can 'dd' the 11.10 iso to flash. see if it boots that way. also you could test your iso in virtulabox.
[10:22] <murmurs> dr-willis, thanks for the help, I didn't find anything suspect using the history command
[10:22] <murmurs> I think the hd must be going
[10:22] <KatsumeBlisk> murmurs: Poor thing. :'( It's always said when they leave us.
[10:22] <saivnoba> well. no previous ones were some 'geha'. currently, sony.
[10:22] <dr-willis> murmurs:  dmesg commqnd may show info on hd failure
[10:22] <murmurs> indeed :(
[10:22] <ekakela> KatsumeBlisk: Actually the system works :D Just had to switch to another tty to see anything usefull :D
[10:23] <KatsumeBlisk> ekakela: Awesome! :D
[10:23] <saivnoba> dr-willis: will try 'dd' command. but why does unetbootin method not working?
[10:23] <dr-willis> saivnoba:  i find unetbootin flakey of late. rarely works for m e
[10:24] <KatsumeBlisk> dr-willis: I guess it depends on the person. Unetbootin has been flawless for me.
[10:24] <murmurs> thanks again
[10:24] <murmurs> cya
[10:24] <dr-willis> you could make your own grub2 pendrive to boot yhe iso files also
[10:24] <saivnoba> KatsumeBlisk: indeed it was, till this time.
[10:25] <dr-willis> KatsumeBlisk:  more likely depenbds on the hardware
[10:25] <KatsumeBlisk> saivnoba: Just realized that my question with the CD-Rs was kind of dumb if it's not working with USB drives either.
[10:25] <tastytoiletseat> this is not a troll... i know ubuntu is some sort of nix system, right? this is the most popular chan on the server, and i want one of you to tell me why it's so good :-)
[10:25] <FreeWilly> hi all, i have an ubuntu server box, installed a couple of services on there, however things are not going too well with it
[10:26] <KatsumeBlisk> FreeWilly: What's wrong?
[10:26] <bhavesh> what if I copy my build-essential files .. if they are installed somewhere.. from 64bit machine to 32bit one?
[10:26] <bazhang> tastytoiletseat, this is not the place for that
[10:26] <ekakela> KatsumeBlisk: Now I'm just wondering why my user doesn't have sudo privs :D Next time remember to allow root login
[10:26] <tastytoiletseat> where to?
[10:26] <dr-willis> !ubuntu | tastytoiletseat
[10:26] <auronandace> tastytoiletseat: try it and see
[10:26] <bazhang> #ubuntu-offtopic tastytoiletseat
[10:26] <KatsumeBlisk> ekakela: Can't you log in as root?
[10:26] <saivnoba> KatsumeBlisk: that's ok. But it is also true that media and the speed at which we burn also matter.
[10:26] <tastytoiletseat> kk thanks, surry and thanks ubottu
[10:26] <FreeWilly> at boot up, well it freezess nd the error i can see is that: iniy enreadeahead other main process (6790 TERMINATED WITH STATUS 4
[10:27] <ekakela> KatsumeBlisk: Nope because did installation in expert mode and when it asked "allow root login" I answered no, since with standard installation you don't have to use root account for anything
[10:27] <FreeWilly> PRIOT TO THAT THERE IS A MOUNT OIUNT /PROC/BUS/USB DOES NOT EXIST
[10:27] <FreeWilly> eish sory bout caps
[10:27] <KatsumeBlisk> ekakela: Ouch. You need it to install stuff. XX
[10:27] <ekakela> But reinstall isnt big problem, now that I know how to get this toy to work :D
[10:27] <KatsumeBlisk> XD
[10:27] <KatsumeBlisk> ekakela: Especially since you just reinstalled it, you don't lose anything
[10:27] <saivnoba> for 'dd' what bs should I use? I'm always confused with this value.
[10:28] <FreeWilly> my feeling is that when the box was moved the ups was unplogged, coz thats the only usb device connected to the box, however it is conneted now
[10:28] <ekakela> KatsumeBlisk: sudo privs will do as well but it seems that the installer didn't give them to the default user it makes in expert mode :D
[10:28] <FreeWilly> am i gona have to boot up into the box with live cd?
[10:28] <KatsumeBlisk> ekakela: I've never used expert, so I don't know what it does.
[10:28] <dr-willis> saivnoba:  2048  or sim iler. not too big
[10:28] <sskniranjan> does any one know more about gwibber/
[10:28] <ekakela> Well anyways, thanks. Got this thing figured out :)
[10:29] <dr-willis> sskniranjan:  theres always the gwibber homepage
[10:29] <GinoMan2440> ok.... so there's two versions of fglrx in the repo
[10:29] <bazhang> sskniranjan, #gwibber
[10:29] <sskniranjan> where
[10:29] <KatsumeBlisk> sskniranjan: "/join #gwibbber" and ask there.
[10:29] <sskniranjan> but no one answers there. all sleeps there
[10:29] <GinoMan2440> when I try to install it, it wants to remove a whole bunch of packages
[10:29] <saivnoba> dr-willis: ok. I'll use that value. Btw, do you have any reference for bs= value for different media types.
[10:29] <bazhang> sskniranjan, then be patient
[10:29] <KatsumeBlisk> sskniranjan: It's kind of late to ask questions, mind you.
[10:30] <sskniranjan> :(
[10:30] <KatsumeBlisk> sskniranjan: It's 4 am in the US.
[10:30] <KatsumeBlisk> sskniranjan: about 4
[10:30] <GinoMan2440> KatsumeBlisk: well, 6:30 on the East Coast
[10:30] <dr-willis> saivnoba: =its not c4itical. just dont go silly and try huge amounts like 2gb...
[10:30] <KatsumeBlisk> GinoMan2440: That's why I changed it. XD Point is, it's freaking early. XD
[10:31] <sskniranjan> okk. . does no one uses else any  where in the globe
[10:31] <dr-willis> saivnoba:  2048 is what i akways use
[10:31] <KatsumeBlisk> sskniranjan: Patience.
[10:31] <sskniranjan> kkk :(
[10:31] <bhavesh> dr-willis, I got a build-essential package deb from here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/i386/build-essential/download
[10:31] <dr-willis> gwibber forums perhaps
[10:32] <dr-willis> bhavesh:  so?   ;)
[10:32] <dr-willis> its a meta package
[10:32]  * KatsumeBlisk should probably join the Ubuntu forums to help there too...
[10:32] <tieinv>
[10:32] <saivnoba> dr-willis: thanks. am 'dd'ing now. :-) see you later if I still have problem. Thank you KatsumeBlisk.
[10:32] <GinoMan2440> ok, if I go into aptitude and select fglrx, it trys to remove like 100+ packages
[10:32] <dr-willis> dont forget  askubuntu.com
[10:32] <KatsumeBlisk> saivnoba: Didn't do much to help, but you're welcome anyway. XD
[10:32] <GinoMan2440> but if I type "aptitude install fglrx" it only wants to install two packages, and remove none
[10:33] <KatsumeBlisk> dr-willis: Good point. Must. Help. People. With. Ubuntu.
[10:34] <dr-willis> there is an askubuntu.com lense and indicator applet also.
[10:34] <FreeWilly> is it possible to remove an installed service/app from a linux box's primary hd when booting up from the live cd?
[10:35] <dr-willis> FreeWilly:  chroot in and do what you need
[10:35] <tenX> FreeWilly: chroot
[10:35] <dr-willis> or just boot to single user mode. ;)
[10:36] <GinoMan2440> sudo mount -o bind /dev/ /media/linux/dev/
[10:36] <GinoMan2440> sudo mount -o bind /sys/ /media/linux/sys/
[10:36] <saymoo> GinoMan2440: that´s twice
[10:36] <saymoo> :)
[10:36] <GinoMan2440> sudo mount -o bind /proc/ /media/linux/proc/

[10:37] <GinoMan2440> press <win> and type Terminal
[10:37] <saymoo> chroot is a method to change (ch) the root to a different location
[10:37] <dr-willis> FreeWilly:  perhaps you should be telling us the original problem

[10:38] <Sly> Hey, i was wondering why after doing a fresh install of 11.10 when i try to install certain things (xbacklight, samsung-backlight, ndisgtk) it asks for the 11.10 media to be inserted to /cdrom/. This is on a n130 netbook........ its very weird and no other version asked for the cd

[10:40] <KatsumeBlisk> bhavesh: You'll need an internet connection for that.
[10:40] <corecode> but it's having problems with permissions
[10:40] <KatsumeBlisk> bhavesh: Do you have an ethernet cable
[10:40] <bhavesh> alright
[10:41] <dr-willis> bhavesh:  its a meta package
[10:41] <Atharva> Myrtti : Well done :)
[10:41] <corecode> anybody know what i need to run/set to get nm-applet be allowed to talk to networkmanager?
[10:41] <dr-willis> bhavesh:  all it doews is make it easier to install a set of other packages
[10:41] <bhavesh> But there is a bug with the ASUS eepc erthnet on ubutnu
[10:41] <KatsumeBlisk> bhavesh: That's the only way to get drivers
[10:41] <bhavesh> Ethernet*
[10:42] <KatsumeBlisk> bhavesh: You have to have internet to download things.
[10:42] <FreeWilly> dr-willis: when my box powers up, i could putty in anylonger, nor see my samba network share form other pc's
[10:42] <bhavesh> KatsumeBlisk, Yea I do have a cable.. now the only way is through wifi
[10:42] <dr-willis> or download all thr needed packages by hand then copy them over
[10:42] <bhavesh> ok
[10:42] <auronandace> !offline | bhavesh
[10:42] <saymoo> bhavesh: apt-get install checks your sources, and tries to fetch the packages from those repositories. And if those are on the internet, you NEED and internet connection on your machine, to be able to fetch the packages (and check those repo´s). :)
[10:43] <FreeWilly> so now looking at the linux box, connecting a monitor i see the first line at the top (dont boot properly) reading mount: mount point /proc/bus/usb does not exist
[10:43] <bhavesh> ok
[10:43] <FreeWilly> then fsck tries to mountall but mount all cant take place
[10:43] <dr-willis> if theres other linux boxs on the lan. they can cache the pavkages. ;)
[10:43] <FreeWilly> then my promary hd mounts fine
[10:44] <FreeWilly> but the other two hd's has this message: /dev/sxx has been mounted 22 times without being checked, check forced.
[10:44] <FreeWilly> and it stays there
[10:45] <dr-willis> a fsck can take some time. you may want to fsck them by hand from a live cd
[10:45] <LK-> Is it possible to make Ubuntu keep the hardware clock in UTC?
[10:45] <FreeWilly> when i hit a key on the keyboard, an ubuntu loading screen appears, when i hit key again, i go back to the booting messages which havent changed
[10:45] <FreeWilly> its been like that for 2days
[10:45] <FreeWilly> i tried the waiting game
[10:45] <FreeWilly> allready
[10:46] <Stanley00> LK-: yes, you can do it via hwclock command
[10:46] <aleale> ciao
[10:46] <FreeWilly> but will it fsck both drives same time?
[10:47] <aleale> :!list
[10:47] <aleale> !list
[10:51] <GinoMan2440> why can't it update alternatives correctly
[10:52] <KatsumeBlisk> GinoMan2440: What are you talking about?
[10:52] <GinoMan2440> fglrx
[10:52] <GinoMan2440> update-alternatives: warning: forcing reinstallation of alternative /usr/lib/fglrx/ld.so.conf because link group i386-linux-gnu_gl_conf is broken.
[10:52] <GinoMan2440> update-alternatives: error: unable to install /usr/lib32/libaticalcl.so.dpkg-tmp as /usr/lib32/libaticalcl.so: No such file or directory
[10:52] <GinoMan2440> that's the failure point
[10:53] <Yerushalmi> How do I get into brightness/gamma/etc. settings for a video overlay in 11.10?
[10:54] <bhavesh> wow.. now I cannot find autoconf.h.. anywhere
[10:55] <dr-willis> !find autoconf.h

[10:59] <zee> Hi, around 1 month ago i remember visiting lubuntu website "lubuntu.net"  which has a good collection of lubuntu related educational videos. Can't find it now. What is  Lubuntu new web address now?
[11:00] <KatsumeBlisk> zee: Seems like since they became a derivative, their main site is now an entry in the Ubuntu Wiki
[11:01] <ouyes> besides comand ping to test if a ip is active, what command can be use to test if an ip in the lan was occupied?
[11:01] <ouyes> of course i am in ubuntu
[11:01] <MonkeyDust> lsof -i
[11:02] <saymoo> zee: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation
[11:02] <saymoo> there are some screencasts there (videos)
[11:02] <ouyes> MonkeyDust, are you talking to me?
[11:03] <zee> KatsumeBlisk : Thanks for the info
[11:03] <llutz> ouyes: from outside? theres basically ping, traceroute, nmap but at least it all uses ping  (icmp)
[11:04] <llutz> ouyes: and if he talked to you, "lsof -i" wouldn't help here in any way
[11:04] <ouyes> MonkeyDust, I tried but that is wrong, because I have 3 pcs in the lan there are connected via a switch, ip 192.168.100, 101, and 102, mine is 101 but I ping 102, nothing come out
[11:04] <MonkeyDust> ouyes: try mtr (my trace route)
[11:04] <zee> saymoo : found  the screencast there. Thanks
[11:04] <llutz> ouyes: do you filter ICMP?
[11:05] <ouyes> llutz, I dont know
[11:05] <saymoo> zee: no problem
[11:06] <ouyes> llutz, how can I know if I filter icmp?
[11:06] <ouyes> llutz, I can ping myself
[11:06] <llutz> ouyes: check iptables rules
[11:06] <ouyes> llutz, how to check that?
[11:07] <llutz> "man iptables"  (iptables -vL)
[11:07] <bhavesh_> U do sudo apt-cdrom add but what if u have a USB? still same?
[11:07] <ouyes> llutz, I can ping www.google.com
[11:07] <llutz> ouyes: check in ....102
[11:07] <llutz> on*
[11:07] <ouyes> it is on
[11:09] <ouyes> I try PING <IP_ADDRESS> (<IP_ADDRESS>) 56(84) bytes of data. but nothing come out
[11:09] <Houssem> Hello,
[11:09] <ouyes> I am 102 by the way
[11:10] <jottbe> Hi
[11:10] <llutz> ouyes: check network connection, using "ethtool"
[11:10] <llutz> ouyes: " ethtool eth0|grep detect"
[11:11] <ouyes> llutz, is this possible if the pc I am try to ping, disabled icmp?
[11:11] <llutz> ouyes: yes
[11:11] <jottbe> I have a problem since I upgraded to ubuntu 11.10 my recorded mpeg viedeos (recorded using mencoder to record from a dvbc-card) are not played correctly anymore
[11:11] <jottbe> I mean the sound and the viedeo get out of sync
[11:11] <llutz> ouyes: stupid thing but used commonly today
[11:12] <ouyes> llutz, 	Link detected: yes
[11:12] <ouyes> llutz, if they disabled icmp, then How can I know they are active ?
[11:13] <ouyes> llutz, is there other command
[11:13] <llutz> ouyes: so at least your machine has physical network-connection.
[11:13] <ouyes> llutz, oh man, of course I am talking to you
[11:13] <RudyValencia> How do I stop the joe text editor from creating backup files (e.g. for filename.txt it creates filename.txt~) ?
[11:14] <llutz> ouyes: you have to check that on the machine NOT ANSWERING
[11:14] <llutz> ouyes: i'll drop it here
[11:14] <ouyes> llutz, thanks,
[11:15] <Houssem> can't login  using ubuntu after an upgrade to 11.10 : saned disabled edit /etc/default/saned ... and checking battery statut !  I tried to reinstall ati driver from the recovery but always I'm getting the same problem
[11:16] <wunnle> hey all
[11:16] <wunnle> do you use a app to quick share files which have drag and drop upload feature?
[11:16] <dc5ala> Houssem, do you get a graphical login at least?
[11:17] <Yerushalmi> Does anyone know how to change a video overlay's brightness, gamma, etc. settings in 11.10?
[11:17] <tenX> wunnle: dropbox?
[11:17] <sasa> anybody can say to me how to capture audio straming from rhytmnbox?
[11:17] <MonkeyDust> wunnle: there's dropbox and minus http://minus.com/pages/help
[11:18] <bhavesh_> Yerushalmi, Doesn't you monitor have buttons for it?
[11:18] <MonkeyDust> sasa: it's a plugin you have to download, i used it
[11:18] <wunnle> MonkeyDust, dropbox is not what i wanted, i want a link of file. minus is what i wanted but it seems not working with 11.10
[11:18] <sasa> rhytmnbox plugin?
[11:19] <csenger41> hy everyone :)
[11:20] <sasa> monkeyDust rhytmnbox plugin?
[11:20] <sasa> what's it0s name?
[11:20] <Yerushalmi> bhavesh: I can change my monitor's brightness up and down, yes - but I'm trying to watch a TV show that was apparently filmed in the middle of a windowless concrete bunker twenty miles underground during a new moon sometime after the heat death of the universe. My monitor can't brighten it up enough, and even if it had been able to, everything BUT the video would activate solar panels for...
[11:20] <Yerushalmi> ...miles around.
[11:20] <JonathanEllis> Can someone suggest a minimum spec for a laptop and desktop to run the latest version of ubuntu and to run normal office programs plus play online vide fullscreen from bbc iplayer and how much I should expect to pay second hand for them? I would like the desktop to be able to take a twin graphics card as I've got used to double screens on my existing desktop running Gutsy
[11:20] <csenger41> pls someone help me in colour correcting, because they look very paly
[11:20] <GinoMan2440> ok.... I have an alternatives question
[11:21] <Yerushalmi> Most video card drivers on Windows machines allow you to select separate settings for gamma and alpha for video overlays. Is there anything like that in Ubuntu?
[11:21] <De|ta> Hi. I'm having issues with a BCM4311 wifi card in my laptop. What chipset card should I replace it with to ensure better compatibiliy, intel one?
[11:22] <sasa> anybody can say to me how to capture audio straming from rhytmnbox?
[11:22] <csenger41> Yerushalmi: I have ATI VGA, but last time when I installed ATI Catalyst, it killed my XORG and i had to reinstall my whole system
[11:22] <snark> I have chrome installed at /usr/bin/chromium-browser.  How come the command 'find / *chrom*' couldn't locate it?  Obviously its no problem since I found out where it's at by poking around, but I want to know why that didn't work in case I need to find some other executable I don't know the exact name of
[11:23] <Yerushalmi> csenger41: Hmm. Sounds like less than an ideal solution in my case :) Any suggestions?
[11:23] <Yerushalmi> *a less
[11:23] <dc5ala> snark, that's because you need to "escape" *, else your shell is interpreting that, use \*
[11:23] <MonkeyDust> sasa: http://scrawl.bplaced.net/projects/record-station/
[11:23] <muelli> snark: wrong syntax. check man find. Correcty syntax would be smth ilke find / -name '*chrome*'
[11:23] <randomguy123> folder structure: /a/a/b/c, how can i move the second 'a' folder instead of the first one?
[11:24] <sasa> thanks monkeyDust
[11:24] <muelli> randomguy123: mv /a/a /tmp/somwhere.
[11:24] <randomguy123> thanks muelli, i will try now :]
[11:24] <MonkeyDust> sasa: after install, you need to restart rhythmbox
[11:24] <snark> You all are my heroes.  Much thanks =)
[11:25] <csenger41> I'd need some way to adjust lower gamma and higher contrast level
[11:25] <sasa> do i need stremripper?
[11:25] <GinoMan2440> if you create a link group, and then you make a slave which is available by "/usr/lib/file.so" to "/usr/lib/name/file.so" and another slave that's "/usr/lib32/file.so" to "/usr/lib32/name/file.so" and "/usr/lib32" is a symlink to "/usr/lib/" but the two slaves have slightly different names in /etc/alternatives/, does that conflict?
[11:25] <Yerushalmi> csenger41: Exactly.  Any ideas?
[11:25] <sasa> i've been trying to use stremRipper
[11:25] <sasa> but was not working
[11:25] <sasa> ...
[11:25] <MonkeyDust> sasa: it orks, i used it
[11:25] <MonkeyDust> w
[11:25] <JonathanEllis> I will rephrase my question. Can someone suggest a minimum spec for a cheap secondhand laptop and desktop to run the latest version of ubuntu, please? I want to run normal office programs plus play online video fullscreen from BBC iplayer and 4od. How much I should expect to pay second hand for them? I would like the desktop to be able to take a twin graphics card as I've got used to double screens on my existing desktop running Gutsy
[11:26] <sasa> ok i'll try it again now
[11:26] <sasa> n let you know
[11:26] <MonkeyDust> JonathanEllis: wrong channel, ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:26] <Houssem> dc5ala : no I don't ! it's blocked before the graphical login
[11:26] <dc5ala> JonathanEllis, try Ubuntu forums, this is the support channel :)
[11:27] <JonathanEllis> MonkeyDust and dc5ala: Thanks. Just hoped someone in here might have a suggestion
[11:28] <dc5ala> Houssem, have a look at /var/run, and /var/lock, they are now symlinks to /run and /run/lock
[11:28] <Gentoo64> JonathanEllis: id say 2gb ram for plain ubuntu. cant say about prices youll have to look
[11:29] <JonathanEllis> Gentoo64: Thanks. Can you suggest what sort of processor I should go for? Oh by the way, my girlfriend will want it to run windows as well
[11:29] <Gentoo64> JonathanEllis: join #ubuntu-offtopic im in there
[11:32] <sasa> monkeyDuyst
[11:33] <sasa> i downloaded it
[11:33] <sasa> and installed
[11:33] <sasa> i launched rhytmnbox...now where i find commands for register?
[11:33] <sasa> any button has been added to control pad
[11:34] <sasa> i want to use it for last.fm srtems
[11:34] <srcds> hey guys, i just updated to the latest ubuntu version. How do i get rid of this horrible horrible new interface?
[11:35] <dc5ala> !nounity
[11:36] <srcds> whats the difference between gnome hsell and gnome fallback?
[11:36] <Muloza> Hi guys. I have a question. I am creating a Launchpad account, and I am setting up the PGP keys. But I need Enigmail for Thunderbird to decrypt the mail, but Enigmail 1.3.2 is not compatible with Thunderbird 3.1.15.
[11:37] <dc5ala> srcds, Gnome-Shell is Gnome 3 and fallback is version 2
[11:37] <Gentoo64> people are always going to try avoiding gnome 3. just use a different de
[11:38] <jatt> xfce is a good alternative
[11:38] <srcds> i just want the old UI back D:
[11:39] <srcds> this horrible new thing is horrible, it reminds me of windows phone 7
[11:39] <jatt> you need to downgrade the whole os to get the old ui back
[11:39] <Gentoo64> srcds: do the nounity thing then and install gnome panel
[11:40] <GinoMan2440> consider the following: http://paste.ubuntu.com/716823/
[11:40] <srcds> hm id like to try gnome-shell but i cant find such a package in my synaptic
[11:40] <Gentoo64> youll find gnome shell horrible too
[11:41] <tiresias> hello all
[11:41] <Gentoo64> its the same style
[11:41] <Yerushalmi> Does anyone know how to change a video overlay's brightness, gamma, etc. settings in 11.10?
[11:41] <srcds> oh so it is not the same as old gnome with improvements?
[11:41] <jatt> no it isn't
[11:41] <jatt> they removed completely the old gnome functionality
[11:41] <jatt> is just a mock-up of a panel
[11:41] <Gentoo64> gnome shell is big and phone style too
[11:41] <jatt> but is not the same panel as in gnome 2.x
[11:41] <Gentoo64> he wont like it i doubt
[11:41] <tiresias> problem with internet: the servers takes a very long time when i try to connect to an internet page
[11:42] <srcds> well i have gnome panel already, now how do i get rid of unity?
[11:42] <tiresias> i disabled ipv 6 but it doesn't help
[11:42] <Yerushalmi> Does anybody know how to, in either Unity or Gnome for Ubuntu 11.10, change the alt-tab functionality to the way it used to work, i.e., cycle through windows located on the current workspace only rather than windows on all workspaces?
[11:42] <Muloza> Is there a good alternative for Enigmail for Thunderbird? I need to decrypt some mail.
[11:44] <mbana> where is ulimit -c set?
[11:44] <mbana> it seems to be defaulting to zero
[11:44] <dc5ala> srcds, both Unity and Gnome-Shell use other concepts than you are used to. The closest and still maintained desktop-environment to gnome2 is probably XFCE, a more classical desktop.
[11:45] <llutz> Muloza: why don't you upgrade thunderbird?
[11:45] <srcds> thank you, what the hell is wrong with all the messed up new UI concepts?
[11:45] <Muloza> llutz, I downloaded it from the Software Center.
[11:45] <Gentoo64> srcds: theyre all going the same way. look at windows 8
[11:46] <kurisu> ubuntuone is rediculous.... quad core 4gb ram laptop slowed to a halt when it syncs
[11:46] <srcds> yeah and that is horrible
[11:46] <Travis-42> where does Ubuntu mount the iPhone? I can see it in Nautilus, but not in /media
[11:46] <Gentoo64> srcds: xfce is prob the best bet for people who like plain gnome 2. has 2 panels by default etc its very similar
[11:47] <kurisu> has annyone else had issues with ubuntuone?
[11:47] <lyrae> where is synaptic?
[11:47] <srcds> my windows will always have to look like win2k and my ubuntu will always have to work the way it worked 6 years ago
[11:47] <llutz> Muloza: get enigmail-1.1.2 from http://enigmail.mozdev.org/download/index.php.html   or better try to use a more actual thunderbird from the mozilla-ppa
[11:47] <srcds> brb trying to switch to gnome. thanks guys
[11:47] <Muloza> llutz, Thank you. I enabled the checkbox for Enigmail in the Software Center, I didn't know I could install addons there. Seems to work. :-)
[11:48] <dc5ala> Travis-42, have a look what "gvfs-mount -l" says
[11:48] <lyrae> How do i update my system? I usually did it from synaptic but i cant find syanptic
[11:48] <kurisu> apt-get update; apt-get upgrade

[11:52] <TorbenBeta> Are here any 11.10 users?
[11:52] <MonkeyDust> none
[11:53] <TorbenBeta> Really?
[11:53] <lyrae> most of us still on 06.10
[11:53] <Travis-42> 06.10? I'm on 98.04..
[11:53] <TorbenBeta> Well, do you know where I can find some 11.10 users?
[11:54] <popey> TorbenBeta: whats the actual question you want to ask?
[11:54] <Yerushalmi> Does anyone know how to change a video overlay's brightness, gamma, etc. settings in 11.10?
[11:54] <TorbenBeta> Is there really no classic session support on 11.10, like on 11.04. popey
[11:54] <popey> TorbenBeta: correct, yes
[11:55] <TorbenBeta> Will the support come back? Sir
[11:55] <popey> TorbenBeta: there is unity, unity2d, gnome-shell and gnome fallback, and lxde, and xfce and and and...
[11:55] <popey> TorbenBeta: if gnome make something that looks like gnome 2, then yes, maybe, if they don't then no.
[11:55] <popey> TorbenBeta: I would put money on 'no'
[11:56] <TorbenBeta> So, if I want classic I should stick to 11.04.
[11:56] <Sentynel> hi guys, been having hangs on shutdown and random system freezes since upgrading to 11.10. there's nothing useful in /var/log/{dmesg,Xorg.0.log}; does anyone have any ideas for tracking down the cause?
[11:56] <popey> TorbenBeta: yes, or switch to another desktop environment
[11:56] <lyrae> is there a reason gnome-classic is so buggy? I can't even move the panels on top and bottom of screen
[11:57] <poidon>
[11:57] <poidon>
[11:57] <popey> poidon: stop

[11:57] <poidon>
[11:58] <cutiyar> how to recover my jpeg after reinstalliong ubuntu?
[11:58] <Myrtti> poidon: on the next one you're out
[11:58] <popey> cutiyar: recover your photos?
[11:58] <TorbenBeta> Btw. is there an official forum for Ubuntu.
[11:58] <cutiyar> popey, yes
[11:58] <popey> TorbenBeta: yes, ubuntuforums.org
[11:58] <popey> cutiyar: what did you do? reinstall over the top?
[11:58] <Kprawn> have 11.04, have heard should not update to 11.10, truth?
[11:58] <TorbenBeta> You are helpful Sir @popey.
[11:59] <popey> TorbenBeta: thanks!, enjoy
[11:59] <Mion> Kprawn: fresh install might work better
[11:59] <cutiyar> popey, i have removed my last ubuntu and installiong new so i lost my photos
[11:59] <popey> cutiyar: you formatted the partition?
[11:59] <Mion> Kprawn: distupgrade is flaky as always in ubuntu
[11:59] <cutiyar> popey, yeas
[11:59] <popey> Kprawn: I had no issues upgrading
[12:00] <popey> cutiyar: then you may have lost your photos, do you have backups
[12:00] <popey> ?
[12:00] <Muloza> When I try to decrypt 'Conform your OpenPHP Key' from Launchpad, I need to enter a passphrase, but which one? And where can I find it?
[12:00] <Yerushalmi> Does anybody know how to, in either Unity or Gnome for Ubuntu 11.10, change the alt-tab functionality to the way it used to work, i.e., cycle through windows located on the current workspace only rather than windows on all workspaces?
[12:00] <Mion> cutiyar: keep /home on a seperate partion, then yoo won't lose your user data at a reinstall, also, use backups
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> cutiyar: scalpel or foremost may work, using your backups will be by far the most reliable method
[12:00] <cutiyar> popey, no , i asked to recover because i losted them
[12:00] <popey> cutiyar: you may have lost your photos then.
[12:00] <Kprawn> The folks i heard from are casual users, one had an old laptop as well
[12:01] <sagaci> Muloza: you would have set a password/passphrase when you made your key
[12:01] <llutz> cutiyar: try photorec to recover. but if you have written a lot to the same partition, chances are minimal to recover successful
[12:01] <cutiyar> ActionParsnip, i had used them but it seems not recover anything because itss just waiting
[12:01] <cutiyar> popey, yes i did
[12:01] <cutiyar> llutz, its work?
[12:01] <Muloza> sagaci: Yes, but my passphrase nor the password it not working.
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> cutiyar: use a liveCD and you can attempt recovery. Do you have a backup??
[12:02] <MrMind> Is there any idea to try ironhide on a laptop with optimus? or is the performance really bad?
[12:02] <dc5ala> Yerushalmi, for Gnome-Shell there is a extension called alternate tab
[12:02] <cutiyar> ActionParsnip, i had delleted all last ubuntu and installing new one no backup exist .
[12:02] <cutiyar> llutz, how it work?
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> cutiyar: why is there no backup? What if the drive motor failed. Where is your data then?
[12:03] <Yerushalmi> dc5ala: Where do I get it?
[12:03] <llutz> cutiyar: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery
[12:03] <cutiyar> ActionParsnip, i think u dont understand me
[12:03] <Kprawn> is there a way to make these two blue texts bars mesh better with my background
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> MrMind: I've not seen a success story with optimus
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> MrMind: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HybridGraphics
[12:04] <Kprawn> I like to leave irc up, but these bars are quite asthetically displeasing on top of my background
[12:04] <cutiyar> ActionParsnip, i had problem when i upgraded to 11.10 which was network configuration on booting so i edited some files so the ubuntu was damaged so iam installing new one.
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> Kprawn: which client?
[12:04] <Kprawn> irssi
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> Kprawn: there are lots of themes for irssi dude
[12:05] <wavez> how do I turn off the feature in gnome that causes a the window manager to move the active window when I hold alt and LMB?
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> Kprawn: http://www.irssi.org/themes
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> Kprawn: go crazy on it :)
[12:05] <Kprawn> ActionParsnip: Thank you friend
[12:06] <cutiyar> Any hope to recover?
[12:06] <dalton2345> hello, anyone using a usb tuner, i cant make it to work
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> Kprawn: just copy the theme file into ~/.irssi    you can then run:  /set theme name   and set the theme to name
[12:07] <HemeiPhone> Just did a clean install of 11.10 and I just get black and white display. Appears to be a console but the colours are inverted and corrupted. Anyone seen this before?
[12:07] <cutiyar> llutz, i have installed ubuntu not running live cd
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> dalton2345: run:   lsusb    use the 8 character hex ID to find guides
[12:07] <Duelisti> Using 11.10, how can I access VLC menu? It doesn't show up in the panel.
[12:08] <Dan_E> 11.10 seems to much slower than previous version?????
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> Dan_E: thats a statement, not a question
[12:09] <Dan_E> that is Both

[12:12] <wavez> how do I stop the window manager from capturing the input when I do Alt+LMB? That is a command in my program but instead the window is being moved around.
[12:13] <Kprawn> ActionParsnip: awesome, this will be nice, thank you
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> Kprawn: simple times man, irssi is pretty badass and VERY flexible
[12:13] <TorbenBeta> http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/08/05/linus_slams_gnome_three/ intresting or not?
[12:13] <Yerushalmi> Does anybody know how to, in either Unity or Gnome for Ubuntu 11.10, change the alt-tab functionality to the way it used to work, i.e., cycle through windows located on the current workspace only rather than windows on all workspaces?
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> Yerushalmi: Unity uses Gnome....
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> Yerushalmi: you can set the ALT-TAB behaviour in ccsm
[12:15] <Yerushalmi> ActionParsnip: Where's that?
[12:15] <Yerushalmi> ActionParsnip: Also, what is that? :)
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> Yerushalmi: search for it in dash
[12:16] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[12:16] <Yerushalmi> ActionParsnip: What's dash? (newbie here)
[12:17] <wavez> I found the window for keyboard shortcuts, but the feature to move a window by holding Alt and click dragging is not listed.
[12:17] <reisio> wavez: wanting to disable it?
[12:17] <th__> hello all
[12:18] <reisio> hi th
[12:18] <wavez> reisio, yes, very much so.
[12:18] <wavez> please help
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> Yerushalmi: press SuperL (or windows key as it'sknown) and dash will show
[12:18] <th__> what is the best theme for irssi?
[12:18] <Yerushalmi> ActionParsnip: Ah, the upper-right-corner thing. I thought that's what you meant but typing in 'ccsm' came up with nothing.
[12:18] <reisio> wavez: 'movement key'?
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> th__: there is no best theme for ANYTHING
[12:18] <reisio> th__: elho
[12:18] <Yerushalmi> ActionParsnip: Er, upper-left-corner.
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> Yerushalmi: then install compizconfig-settings-manager
[12:19] <reisio> ActionParsnip: what's the best theme in star wars
[12:19] <Muloza> I have a very hard time with decrypting a mail in Thunderbird with Enigmail. I entered my KeyID, but I the mail is still encrypted.
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> th__: what one person loves, another will hate
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> reisio: I don't like star wars
[12:19] <reisio> ActionParsnip: immaterial
[12:19] <Yerushalmi> ActionParsnip: Thanks
[12:19] <wavez> reisio, I guess so? I don't understand what you are asking. I don't want the window manager to do anything when I hold Alt and click-drag.
[12:19] <conntrack> "The guns, they've stopped"
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> reisio: how can I comment on something I've seen once, hated and forgotten about....
[12:20] <reisio> wavez: that's what it's referred to as, 'movement key'
[12:20] <wavez> ah
[12:20] <reisio> ActionParsnip: you already have twice, just not with an answer to my question :p
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> reisio: Can you reword the qestion then please :)
[12:21] <reisio> ActionParsnip: quack :p
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> reisio: welcome to ignore
[12:21] <cutiyar> how to create launcher?
[12:22] <wavez> reisio, looks like I can change it to the windows key, but other than that, I don't have a choice to disable it, which is really lame IMO.
[12:22] <wavez> reisio, but this should work. Thank you.
[12:23] <reisio> wavez: I'm sure you can disable it, but it might not be worth the effort to find out how :p
[12:23] <th__> reisio so how is this a good theme?
[12:23] <reisio> th__: makes you rich
[12:23] <Pessimist> Any useful programs/panel applets you guys use?
[12:23] <Pessimist> Besides the default ones
[12:23] <th__> reisio aha
[12:24] <reisio> Pessimist: a shortcut to xeyes is pretty good to have
[12:25] <ActionParsnip> cutiyar: if you right click on the desktop, you should be able to make one there (if memory serves)
[12:26] <th__> okay how do i add myself to a hilights in irssi?

[12:31] <th__> ActionParsnip  my /hilight list is empty
[12:31] <Yerushalmi> ActionParsnip: Okay, I've downloaded CCSM and it looks like it has what I'm looking for, and I think I found the instructions on how to change it on a website. It says though that I might have to restart to see the effects. Thanks! :)
[12:31] <th__> reisio its not me
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> Yerushalmi: no worries dude :)
[12:32] <ActionParsnip> th__: I don't even think I have one, not sure dude. Sorry. Maybe others can advise
[12:33] <sagaci> Muloza: did you get it fixed
[12:33] <Pessimist> Is there any way to fix this: Totem loads flv -> plays -> then it deletes it from the cache and if you play it again it has to download it?
[12:33] <Muloza> sagaci: Yes, thanks :).
[12:34] <th__> is there a line wich indicates always my nick? i mean if i put my current nick to /hilight its not going to hilight if my nick changes :S
[12:35] <mang0> Any ideas for a good screen recorder that will encode after I've finished recording, as I've got a low end pc
[12:35] <wolfric> anyone else have ubuntu completely screw the pc over after you upgrade?
[12:36] <Muloza> Yes, me.
[12:36] <wolfric> when i login now i get a "file edit view go bookmarks help" at the top left of my screen... NOTHING ELSE
[12:36] <lyrae_> how does one install themes now? do we really have to put them int he .themes folder?
[12:36] <Yerushalmi> ActionParsnip: Does CCSM only work perhaps in Unity? Because I downloaded Gnome separately and have been using that instead. You said Unity uses Gnome, so I'm genuinely not sure what the difference is - I just know that in Unity, you have that bar down the left side of the screen, while in Gnome, you touch the mouse to the upper left corner
[12:36] <wolfric> if ubuntu wasn't finished then don't ******* release it
[12:36] <Muloza> I got my videocard screw up because of the upgrade. Don't know why. Using my onboard chip now.
[12:36] <popsch> how come that I cannot switch between applications when using drag&drop? For example, I want to drag something from a nautilus window (Window A) to another nautilus window (Window B) that is hidden under Window A.
[12:38] <wolfric> maybe better to stick with long term stable ....
[12:39] <popsch> wolfric, I had the same problem after the upgrade
[12:39] <popsch> wolfric, you need to delete all gnome configuration files and then it'll work fine
[12:40] <ActionParsnip> Yerushalmi: Unity is just a shell, the deskto pis still Gnome and the window manager is Compiz to provide the effects
[12:40] <PeDor> hi, I'm using ubuntu 64 and it's eating all ram memory, is this expected? I have 3gb of ram
[12:40] <popsch> wolfric, so backup .gnome .compiz .local ... while you're logged out and then log in again
[12:40] <reisio> PeDor: http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ ?
[12:40] <ActionParsnip> PeDor: http://www.linuxatemyram.com/
[12:40] <denysonique__> I added the gnome-team/gnome3 ppa
[12:40] <denysonique__> installed gnome-shell
[12:40] <reisio> ActionParsnip: if you'd watched star wars, you would type faster :P
[12:41] <denysonique__> and this messed up my unity 11.04 installation
[12:41] <denysonique__> changed default theme etc
[12:41] <denysonique__> how do I restore to previous state?
[12:41] <reisio> denysonique__: you can install gnome 3's ordinary gnome-shell in 11.10 without a PPA
[12:41] <denysonique__> ok
[12:41] <wolfric> popsch: so do i delete those files?
[12:41] <denysonique__> but how I get default theme now?
[12:41] <denysonique__> I want my system to look like default 11.04
[12:41] <wolfric> popsch: the ones you told me to backup
[12:41] <popsch> wolfric, first make a backup of them, so in case you need something you can restor it.
[12:41] <reisio> denysonique__: why'd you install it at all if you wanted to use Unity
[12:42] <denysonique__> to try it out
[12:42] <PeDor> reisio, ok....i heard about it... the problem is that it's using a lot of swap as well
[12:42] <ActionParsnip> reisio: I told you, I watched it and didn't like it.
[12:42] <Pessimist> Where can I find xchat config file?
[12:42] <reisio> ActionParsnip: :p
[12:42] <voldyman> hey.. i accidentally copied the contents of my old (11.04) ~/ to ~/ (11.10) now both the unity launcher and panel dont show.... is there a way to reset it??
[12:42] <reisio> PeDor: what're you doing?
[12:42] <denysonique__> Pessimist: .config/xchat .xchat, have you tried?
[12:43] <wolfric> oh ************************************************* my remote control driver is gone... this was my bloody media computer!!
[12:43] <popsch> wolfric, backup and then trash .config as well
[12:43] <wolfric> or rather, it just doesn't work any more.
[12:43] <reisio> Pessimist: find ~/ -iname '*x*chat*'
[12:43] <wolfric> this is bs
[12:43] <reisio> wolfric: yup

[12:44] <test> Hello. Do I have to redirect any ports on my router to use "voice call" in Psi?
[12:44] <denysonique__> ubuntu doesn't seem to be the best distro for experimenting with

[12:45] <ActionParsnip> meta-coder: been there a while dude ;) Thanks though :D
[12:45] <denysonique__> Dingdong566: because n00buntos nm overrides them
[12:45] <denysonique__> there is a way to fix this though

[12:47] <Pessimist> I have .r01, .r02 until .r21 then .rar. It is splitted
[12:47] <llutz> Dingdong566: /etc/resolv.conf isn't to be edited manually. if you need static entries, configure dhclient.conf, networkmanager , /etc/network/interfaces or /etc/resolvconf/resolvconf.d/[head|base|tail]
[12:47] <ActionParsnip> Pessimist: install rar unrar p7zip-full p7zip-rar and unp  and you can extract rar files

[12:51] <jgeli> running oneric with Gnome shell, Image viewer does not open my photos. I see it trying to open but the window will not pop at all
[12:51] <ActionParsnip> Sool: http://en.kioskea.net/faq/3348-ubuntu-executing-a-script-at-startup-and-shutdown
[12:52] <NickV136> Hey all...having a problem updating in 11.10,  update manager says I haven't updated for a week, and terminal says some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead
[12:52] <th__> jgeli, try to open them through ocmmand line
[12:52] <meta-coder> ok, I was looking for a file-archiver which can compress at different levels (high compression ratio/fastest, low ratio/slowest). It takes too long to compress large files. Sometimes all I want from the archiver is convert many files into one contiguous file in the fastest possible way.
[12:52] <jgeli> th__: would you tell me how?
[12:52] <meta-coder> Why don't we incorporate this feature in file-roller?
[12:53] <reisio> meta-coder: that's what a TAR Is
[12:53] <Cguy79> NickV136: have you tried using synaptic to try to update?
[12:53] <Sool> ActionParsnip, Huh? but what about /etc/init.d/ ?
[12:54] <th__> jgeli, ?. just open your shell?
[12:54] <NickV136> Cguy79: will try now, completely spaced on htat tahnks
[12:54] <th__> jgeli, app "path to pic"
[12:54] <Sool> ActionParsnip, "Edit /etc/rc.local and add your commands."  Sorry but I havent managed my media with command line before
[12:54] <ActionParsnip> Sool: the files in rc.Xd  are just symlinks to scripts, so you can just have a real script in the folder if you want
[12:54] <Cguy79> update*
[12:54] <meta-coder> reisio, got it. TAR=0% compression ?
[12:54] <soccermitchy> Can I replace the bootloader Ubuntu 10.10 uses without ruining the system?
[12:55] <ActionParsnip> Sool: rc.local is used for commands to run at boot, not shutdown
[12:55] <reisio> meta-coder: indeed, archive only
[12:55] <reisio> meta-coder: that's why you see .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .tar.7z, .tar.xz, etc.
[12:55] <ActionParsnip> soccermitchy: sure, LILO is an alternative to Grub
[12:55] <Sool> ActionParsnip, i know, but im looking for the shutdown-equivalent
[12:55] <reisio> one tool for each job
[12:55] <NickV136> Cguy79: Im running, 11.10 doesnt look like I have synaptic manager, should I install it, or is it just hidden away somewhere?
[12:55] <Scamper> Does anyone know the opengl programming help irc channel?
[12:55] <reisio> Scamper: /msg alis list *opengl*
[12:55] <ActionParsnip> Sool: how do you mean?
[12:55] <soccermitchy> Ok
[12:55] <soccermitchy> Imma look it up.
[12:56] <soccermitchy> But will I still be able to boot into ubuntu? (My brother tried this on 9.[something] and it made it so he couldn't boot)
[12:56] <hdhzero> ??
[12:56] <meta-coder> reisio, why don't we directly .GZ the files instead of .tar.gz?
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> Sool: I thought you wanted a script to run at shutdown...?
[12:57] <reisio> meta-coder: because .gz is only for compression, not archiving; again one tool per job
[12:57] <meta-coder> ok
[12:57] <reisio> that said, the _command_ "tar" can make you a .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, etc. all on its own
[12:57] <th__> jgeli, i dont know what your image viewer software is called
[12:57] <th__> jgeli, try apropos
[12:58] <soccermitchy> ActionParsnip: But will I still be able to boot into ubuntu? (My brother tried this on 9.[something] and it made it so he couldn't boot)

[12:59] <asdjaputra> any ops here?
[12:59] <Cguy79> sorry. nick.. yeah install it.. its not standard with a fresh install
[12:59] <jgeli> 2 th__?? which one is legit? lol
[12:59] <meta-coder> In archiving there is a risk of losing all the data even if a small fraction of that archive gets corrupted. Do we have any technology to help this?
[12:59] <th__> jgeli, me
[12:59] <ActionParsnip> soccermitchy: changing the boot loader won't modify stuff. You should have a backup if your data is important
[12:59] <Cguy79> i also got gdebi for package handling
[12:59] <ilaria> hello
[12:59] <soccermitchy> Ok
[12:59] <reisio> asdjaputra: /msg chanserv access #ubuntu list
[12:59] <g0th> hi
[12:59] <reisio> hi
[12:59] <g0th> how do I let aptitude forget new packages?
[13:00] <soccermitchy> (Well, Imma get rid of my Mint LiveUSB)
[13:00] <denysonique__> anyway
[13:00] <g0th> becoming root and pressing "f" doesn't help
[13:00] <reisio> meta-coder: redundant backups
[13:00] <Cguy79> oh.. i wanted to try mint... any good?
[13:00] <asdjaputra> reisio: no, what i meant is to priv msg one of the op
[13:00] <ilaria>  no
[13:00] <denysonique__> is there a way to install all default packages that 11.04 should have
[13:00] <denysonique__> ?
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> Cguy79: mint is offtopic here
[13:00] <g0th> (just temporarly, when I restart it is unchanged again)
[13:00] <arcsky> why is there no proper gui ftp client for linux ?
[13:00] <soccermitchy> Not on live USB
[13:00] <reisio> meta-coder: there are also methods for fault tolerance, but nothing competes with backups
[13:00] <reisio> asdjaputra: take your pick
[13:00] <denysonique__> arcsky: there is
[13:00] <reisio> arcsky: proper?
[13:00] <denysonique__> arcsky: dolphin or nautilus
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> arcsky: nautilus can connect to ftp and mount it as a local folder
[13:00] <Cguy79> my bad.. saw it in the chat earlier..
[13:00] <reisio> Cguy79: it's an Ubuntu deriv
[13:00] <asdjaputra> oh..
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> arcsky: there is also filezilla too....so where you got that idea is anyone's guess
[13:01] <Cguy79> i have severe add when it comes to linux.. lots of different distros out there
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> Cguy79: no bad thing, the distro is based on Ubuntu so is not hugely different
[13:01] <reisio> '/msg nickserv help' to recover registered nicks
[13:02] <reisio> Cguy79: there are few distros that are actually non-derivative
[13:02] <th__> jgeli, once you have done that just post the print here or pastebin
[13:02] <ivan-de-felice> ita?????
[13:02] <reisio> Cguy79: the vast majority are based off Debian or Ubuntu (which is based off Debian)
[13:02] <ivan-de-felice> ita???????
[13:03] <reisio> ivan-de-felice: pardon?
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> Cguy79: try Mandriva or SuSE for something new
[13:03] <ivan-de-felice> italiano????????
[13:03] <xangua> !it | ivan-de-felice
[13:03] <soccermitchy> Actually, how do I partition a USB using Disk Utility on 10.10?
[13:03] <asdjaputra> !it | ivan-de-felice
[13:03] <reisio> arcsky: just with the venting, then?
[13:03] <th__> ivan-de-felice, shut the fuck up please
[13:03] <Cguy79> i see.. well i've stuck with ubuntu since 9.10, seems the most newb friendly
[13:03] <reisio> heh
[13:03] <th_> ivan-de-felice: irc is not subsdiary of telecom of italia
[13:03] <xangua> th__: drop that attitutde
[13:03] <asdjaputra> th__: use a nicer language please
[13:03] <reisio> Cguy79: a lot of people confuse GNOME and Ubuntu
[13:03] <soccermitchy> g2g
[13:04] <reisio> something GNOME 3 probably has Ubuntu devs not happy about :p
[13:04] <asdjaputra> people confuse GNOME with Ubuntu.
[13:04] <ActionParsnip> reisio: just as many are redhat based, http://httwww.kde-look.org/CONTENT/content-files/46315-linux_timeline_poster_v1.1.png
[13:04] <xangua> little offtopic reisio Cguy79¿ ;)
[13:04] <Cguy79> Gnome is just the shell, or so i though.. i use Unity most of the time now
[13:04] <UrinalStumpSex> GNOME IS FOR FAGGOTS
[13:04] <UrinalStumpSex> THAT IS WHY UBUNTU GOT RID OF IT!
[13:04] <reisio> ActionParsnip: I doubt it
[13:04] <Cguy79> thought*
[13:04] <Dingdong566> if resolve.conf gets rewritten all the time by other stuff, where do I make my nameserver settings  persistent? Should point to my local gateway
[13:04] <arcsky> filezilla is zilly
[13:04] <ActionParsnip> UrinalStumpSex: it still uses gnome, unity is just a shell for gnome
[13:05] <reisio> arcsky: how's it zilly?
[13:05] <quick-> Hey , can anybody tel me how to uninstall the desktop environment in ubuntu server . i have installed and i am not able to uninstall it
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> Dingdong566: the link I gave you explained it
[13:05] <arcsky> reisio: i want something like ftprush or flashfxp
[13:05] <UrinalStumpSex> UNITY MAKES IT STRAIGHT
[13:05] <UrinalStumpSex> GNOME IS A FAG
[13:05] <FloodBot1> UrinalStumpSex: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:05] <reisio> arcsky: and how is filezilla not like them?
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> UrinalStumpSex: Why all the caps?
[13:05] <Stanley00> UrinalStumpSex: dont use ALL CAP please
[13:05] <Muloza> UrinalStumpSex: Please don't use your caps all the time.
[13:05] <FlightZeit> hey
[13:06] <reisio> rofl, you guys are lecturing a troll about his caps
[13:06] <Dingdong566> ActionParsni: I dont have any entries in my NetworkManager
[13:06] <reisio> FlightZeit: hi
[13:06] <reisio> arcsky: looks about the same to me
[13:06] <ActionParsnip> arcsky: look at screenshots of ftprush then filzilla, what is the difference exactly?
[13:06] <Stanley00> quick-: it's much more difficult than reinstall the system with CLI...
[13:06] <reisio> ActionParsnip: for real :)
[13:07] <quick-> Stanley00:  thats the server , it ll be a mess if i have ti re install
[13:07] <ActionParsnip> arcsky: http://www.filetransit.com/images/screen/372c6ae263e8ae32cd9df22e4c28882b_FTPRush.png   and http://filezilla-project.org/images/screenshots/fz3_linux_main.png    What is the difference????
[13:07] <UrinalStumpSex> w3 k90w th@t y0> 10v3 th13
[13:08] <popsch> how can I tell nautilus to not create previews for PDF files?
[13:08] <Stanley00> popsch: in its preference menu, I think
[13:08] <arcsky> ActionParsnip: wierd design, not so many features
[13:09] <quick-> Stanley00:  is there any way to do it i.e make it as CLI , if you know
[13:09] <ActionParsnip> arcsky: if you use at as a straight ftp client it will be as simple as you need, as I said, nautilus can connet to ftp servers so copying stuff is as easy as managing your local data
[13:09] <Dingdong566> ActionParsnip: the link you sent me expects you to have a network connection showing up in the network manager, I dont have that, it s entirely empty
[13:10] <popsch> Stanley00, I cannot set it per file type. I would like to have preview icons, but none for PDF files
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> Dingdong566: then you won't get connected, there will be an entry in network manager for your link. Usually it's 'Auto wlan' or 'auto eth0'  etc
[13:10] <Dingdong566> I installed ubuntu-server and the manually via console installed lubuntu desktop
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> Dingdong566: why install server then?
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> Dingdong566: why not just install Lubuntu
[13:11] <FlightZeit> exit

[13:12] <cutiyar> whats wrong with my 11.10? after some times my ubuntu will freeze completely just the mouse work
[13:12] <th__> quick-, what? :D
[13:12] <AlexisM_> hi, how to add a separator in unity dock ?
[13:12] <imran-uk> hi, how do i disable touchpad tap-to-click in oneric 11.10
[13:12] <quick-> quick-:  i asked how to connect securely in irc as i am using qwebirc now
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> imran-uk: mouse properties probably
[13:13] <cutiyar> whats wrong with my 11.10? after some times my ubuntu will freeze completely just the mouse work
[13:14] <sskniranjan> i want to learn about softwares. where to begin with?
[13:14] <Dingdong566> I was trying to use server with a virtual desktop using VNC but the tutiral didnt work out for me and left me stranded ^^
[13:14] <reisio> sskniranjan: what about them?
[13:14] <imran-uk> ActionParsnip, i looked there already. nothing jumps out
[13:15] <quick-> \quit see u later :D :D
[13:15] <turboneat> Gentlemen.
[13:15] <quick-> \ quit see u later :D :D
[13:15] <reisio> yes mon ami?
[13:15] <sskniranjan> just to know from its basic too advanced
[13:15] <imran-uk> ActionParsnip, does not seem to be exposed in gui, was looking for cli soln. google-fu didn't turn up some and thought i'd try here
[13:15] <NeoCicak> hi all... i'm having trouble with accessing my windows shared directory....... the windows box is not listed when i try to browse the network (i'm running 11.10)
[13:15] <reisio> NeoCicak: sure it's on?
[13:15] <corecode> hi
[13:15] <reisio> hi
[13:16] <NeoCicak> reisio: yes.. i can access the shared dir if i try to access it from windows inside vbox
[13:16] <reisio> NeoCicak: neat
[13:16] <corecode> how do i  get a dbus at_console state?
[13:16] <corecode> i don't use gnome, and things are breaking
[13:16] <reisio> NeoCicak: doesn't show up in the output of 'mount'?
[13:16] <corecode> networkmanager can't be contacted because i don't seem to be at_console, according to dbus
[13:17] <Pessimist>  Why my screen goes black for a second while I load a video (on any player) and after minimizing/maximizing a couple of times the video is black?
[13:17] <reisio> Pessimist: what graphics driver are you using?
[13:17] <Pessimist> Newest fglrx
[13:17] <NeoCicak> mmm i havent mounted it yet... but in the past i can see the windows shared directory if try to browse machines on the network (through that windows-explorer like thing)
[13:18] <reisio> Pessimist: has it ever not done this?
[13:18] <dr_willis> NeoCicak:  ive noticed with nautilus i often have to just tell it the exact url to the windows share. ctrl-l, then  the address similer to... smb://theip.of.the.windowsbox/sharename
[13:18] <dr_willis> NeoCicak:  the hostname of the windows box may or may not work.
[13:19] <Dingdong566> anyone know how to setup a headless ubuntu server 11.10 to make it possible to administer using VNC and gnome-core, or anything else that would be better than gnome if that doesnt cut it?
[13:19] <imran-uk> trying gpointing-device-settings package
[13:19] <Pessimist> reisio, on this 10.04 install I think it did that everytime. As for past times I don't remember
[13:19] <imran-uk> that looks like what i need
[13:19] <jung> how to move gulim.ttf file for wine
[13:19] <NeoCicak> hmmmm... trying to access using your smb:/// way....
[13:19] <ActionParsnip> imran-uk: synclient TapButton1=0    maybe
[13:19] <sniperjo> is anyone good at wheres wally ???
[13:19] <jung> steam text is broken;
[13:19] <hikenboot1> anyone have  pointers to a doc on a net snmp configuration that works for cacti
[13:19] <Pessimist> It also says on vlc: number of reference frames exceeds max (probably corrupt input), discarding one
[13:19] <dr_willis> Dingdong566:  just install the vncserver, then whatever desktop/window mnager you want to use.  for vnc - you most likely want to stick to  as minimal a desktop as you can for speed.
[13:19] <NeoCicak> dr_willis: seems to take forever. the shared drive is password protected btw
[13:19] <conntrack> Time to do a write up
[13:19] <ActionParsnip> Dingdong566: vnc has a webUI, you can even control it from Android phones :)
[13:20] <dr_willis> NeoCicak:  it should pop up a dialog asking for the pass.
[13:20] <NeoCicak> dr_willis: hmmm it does not
[13:20] <dr_willis> android phones even have native vnc clients.. and ssh clients.
[13:20] <reisio> jung: ~/.wine/drive_c/Windows/fonts/ or something, I'd imagine
[13:20] <NeoCicak> dr_willis: seems like something is wrong
[13:20] <reisio> jung: or dpkg -L wine and see where the other fonts are
[13:20] <NeoCicak> dr_willis: yep... came back with error just now
[13:20] <dr_willis> NeoCicak:  theres also the 'smbtree' and 'findsmb' commands that can scan the  network for shares.. see if you can ping the windows box also.
[13:20] <no_gravity> Hey! How do I start the "Startup Disk Creator"?
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> jung: put it in the fonts folder in wine's windows folder...
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> no_gravity: gksudo usb-creator-gtk
[13:21] <jgeli> th__: is the default image viewer for gnome ego (Eye of GNome)?
[13:21] <corecode> nobody know about dbus?
[13:21] <no_gravity> ActionParsnip: thanks!
[13:21] <dr_willis> Dingdong566:  for admining a server, you should brush up on your ssh/cli skills. :)
[13:21] <NeoCicak> ok... tried to do smbtree.... it seems to know the windows box... but it says "session request to XXXX failed (called name not present)"
[13:21] <jgeli> th__: tried opening via command line and I get this error "GRIP-WARNING **: failed to determine device types"
[13:21] <imran-uk> ActionParsnip, thanks but i don't think it uses synaptics driver. dell e6410
[13:21] <AlexisM_> is there a way to add a separator in unity dock, there used to be one but i have removed it  by mistake
[13:21] <asdjaputra> corecode: maybe
[13:21] <no_gravity> Should I install the 32bit or the 64bit version of Ubunut?
[13:21] <imran-uk> $ synclient
[13:21] <imran-uk> Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?
[13:21] <jung> ActionParsnip: i can't it's not move in winefont forder
[13:21] <dr_willis> no_gravity:  if you have 64bit hardware.. use 64bit
[13:22] <th__> jgeli, hmm dont recall that... you should google that up!
[13:22] <no_gravity> dr_willis: how do i know?
[13:22] <popsch> I can't set previews per file type in nautilus anymore. This solution doesn't seem to work for me: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1238558
[13:22] <dr_willis> no_gravity:  if you dont know..  why did you ask. :)  whats your cpu?
[13:22] <th__> anybody familiar with the virtualbox? how to move .vdi to another hdd?
[13:22] <dr_willis> no_gravity:  you could boot up a 64bit live cd and see if it works..
[13:22] <reisio> th__: cp
[13:23] <imran-uk> no_gravity, if you're not going to use more than 4gb then 32-bit ok. a 64bit cpu will work with 32-bit so safer if not sure.
[13:23] <dr_willis> th__:  you coulc copy it then link it back to the original location.
[13:23] <Polah> no_gravity: If you know your processor model I could tell you. Are you on a version of linux just now?
[13:23] <CodeOmegaPrime> anyone on that uses gnome on ubuntu 11.10
[13:23] <no_gravity> dr_willis: i asked because ubuntu.com asks me to download the 32 or 64 bit version. how do i know what my cpu is?
[13:24] <Muloza> no_gravity: Try uname -m
[13:24] <reisio> no_gravity: grep 'lm ' /proc/cpuinfo
[13:24] <athena_> Will most of the ubuntu-users  upgrade to editon 12.04  LTS when it released?
[13:24] <no_gravity> Polah: yes, im on ubuntu right now.
[13:24] <dr_willis> no_gravity:  thats the reason they 'reccomend' 32bit. :)  If you have a mondern machine.. it should be 64bit..
[13:24] <no_gravity> Muloza: i686
[13:24] <reisio> athena_: most as in greater than 50%... I'd wager yes
[13:24] <th__> athena_, possibly. how come?
[13:24] <Muloza> no_gravity: So you have an Intel 32 bit.
[13:25] <reisio> Muloza: no_gravity: wrong
[13:25] <no_gravity> reisio: that gives me a ton of stuff
[13:25] <dr_willis> no_gravity:  so you have an older machine?
[13:25] <reisio> uname -m reports what arch the kernel was built for, not what the hardware supports
[13:25] <jgeli> athena_: yes, LTS
[13:25] <reisio> no_gravity: then you have a 64-bit processor, congrats, use 64-bit Ubuntu
[13:25] <th__> i upgrade always :)
[13:25] <no_gravity> dr_willis: lenovo x301
[13:25] <Muloza> reisio: Thanks :).
[13:25] <reisio> worth knowing :p
[13:25] <jgeli> athena_: LTS are major releases and tend to be more polished
[13:25] <dr_willis> no_gravity:  those #'s mean nothing to me... when was it bought 'new' ?
[13:25] <athena_> I wonder how much differences between LTS and half-annual distributuins.
[13:26] <th__> not much
[13:26] <arcsky> http://screens.alternativeto.net/b0525389-f61f-e011-b47f-0200d897d049_1_full.png
[13:26] <corecode> http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=601003
[13:26] <no_gravity> dr_willis: i think i bought it 3 years ago or so.
[13:26] <NeoCicak> does anyone know anything about 'called name not present' from samba?
[13:26] <reisio> not sure you need a difference bigger than a longer support cycle
[13:26] <arcsky> does anyone know where i cand ownloadit ?
[13:26] <dr_willis> athena_:  the move to unity was huge. :)
[13:26] <no_gravity> reisio: how do youknow i have 64 bit?
[13:26] <Pessimist> Well If you have less then 4gb of ram then 64bit version or 32bit  -doesn't matter
[13:26] <Polah> no_gravity, run this: cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep lm
[13:26] <corecode> seems i can't use slim on ubuntu?
[13:26] <hikenboot1> noone in here does snmp with ubutu
[13:26] <no_gravity> Polah: that gives me a ton of stuff
[13:26] <Polah> no_gravity, if you get a result with "lm" highlighted in red, then your processor is 64-bit capable.
[13:26] <reisio> no_gravity: the 'lm' flag is peculiar to 64-bit
[13:27] <no_gravity> ok
[13:27] <athena_> I am chinese and many of chinese have been wishing that the edition can be named as 'Protected Panda'...
[13:27] <no_gravity> looks like i get one line of output for each cpu:

[13:28] <StonedSlacker> Hey guys, Im having trouble getting the ra5390 driver to work for me. Im running Ubuntu 10.10 and I have had this driver working fine in the past. After a reinstall of ubuntu I cannot get it to work. Here is a paste bin of the relevant line from lspci -k The kernel driver appears to be wrong, is it? http://pastebin.com/VvP5RuCj
[13:28] <no_gravity> So you guys would install the 64 bit version in this case?
[13:28] <reisio> no_gravity: vmx :) congrats you can use kvm for virtualization
[13:28] <reisio> no_gravity: yup
[13:28] <dr_willis> no_gravity:  thats correct. :)
[13:28] <no_gravity> ok
[13:28] <dr_willis> I get one line per core/cpu
[13:28] <no_gravity> dr_willis: ok, then this machine probably has one cpu with 2 cores.
[13:29] <reisio> or hyperthreading
[13:29] <th__> athena_, lol china
[13:29] <dr_willis> for a 3  year old machien.. that makes sence.
[13:29] <dr_willis> no_gravity:  you can go either way.. how much ramyou got>?
[13:30] <no_gravity> dr_willis: top says "Mem:   1956832k total"
[13:30] <StonedSlacker> Hey guys, Im having trouble getting the ra5390 driver to work for me. Im running Ubuntu 10.10 and I have had this driver working fine in the past. After a reinstall of ubuntu I cannot get it to work. Here is a paste bin of the relevant line from lspci -k The kernel driver appears to be wrong, is it? http://pastebin.com/VvP5RuCj
[13:30] <no_gravity> dr_willis: free says the same
[13:30] <jung> how can i move ttf File for wine folder? it's Access refusal.
[13:30] <dr_willis> no_gravity:  if you had 4gb+ you would defianatly want to go 64bit.. as it stands.. it dosent reallymatter a lot.
[13:30] <no_gravity> dr_willis: is that the right way to find out how much ram the machine has?
[13:31] <StonedSlacker> It appears that the kernel module is correct, just not the driver
[13:31] <no_gravity> dr_willis: ok, then i go with 32 bit
[13:31] <dr_willis> free -g   shows it in gb. :)
[13:31] <reisio> no_gravity: no, go with 64
[13:31] <reisio> you have a 64-bit processor
[13:31] <no_gravity> reisio: what difference will it make?
[13:31] <Polah> no_gravity, go with 64. Better future proofing at the very least.
[13:31] <dr_willis> i alwyas use 64bit.. because most all my boxs on thelan are 64bit.
[13:31] <reisio> no_gravity: you won't look silly to people
[13:32] <no_gravity> Polah: "proofing" ?
[13:32] <no_gravity> reisio: i dont care how i look
[13:32] <reisio> no_gravity: yes but given the choice between looking silly and not?
[13:32] <Polah> no_gravity: Everything is moving towards 64-bit systems now. Thus, if you have a 32-bit system you will have to upgrade to 64-bit at some point to support various programs that require more memory and suchlike.
[13:32] <dr_willis> I always go 64bit on any hardware that can do 64bit.
[13:32] <reisio> it's virtually the only sensible choice
[13:33] <dr_willis> if nothign else.. it means i dont need 32bit cd's for anything.
[13:33] <no_gravity> Polah: i have only 2g anyhow...
[13:33] <Polah> no_gravity, also there are some small improved processing efficiencies, and a higher virtual memory limit.
[13:33] <DIL> hey all, so i upgraded  to 11.10 last night when i rebooted i see a list of usernames that related to samba, however when i input my passowrd for my username it flashes to a terminal like screen and then back to the login screen.  i can login at terminal ok.  the one thing i noticed is that the account has/displays my proper name is having the issues.  I dont ssee my user name in the login
