[11:33] <CGo> To illustrate my point, I can and have disabled the nVidia driver. I don't need compiz. But the monitor is still unrecognized. Altering the xorg config caused it to fail to launch, or (most often) just ignore my settings.
[11:33] <CGo> I'm probably doing something wrong here but I'm at my wits end now.
[11:33] <sagaci> misha: what do you need to run
[11:33] <erUSUL> CGo: again try with the nvidia tools --> « gksudo nvidia-settings »
[11:33] <ohsix> CGo: if you're not using the nvidia driver then you can use xrandr to add modes and attach them to outputs
[11:34] <CGo> ohsix, they get ignored
[11:34] <misha> it will be kind of control panel
[11:34] <CGo> Eh well I'll try again, I'm speaking from past experiences now..
[11:34] <sagaci> misha: what's the program
[11:34] <ohsix> CGo: if you set them right and attached them, then you switch to them
[11:34] <CGo> erUSUL, nvidia tools work flawlessly, but are bound by the maximum resolution imposed by the monitor.
[11:35] <stimpie> anyone knows how to rename workspaces using the unity interface?
[11:35] <jobbos> Can anyone tell this noob how i might register my nick name please
[11:35] <ohsix> CGo: nvidia's tool has something like it, also they document how to configure it via .conf
[11:35] <misha> sagaci: it will be backup data from my computer to my USB
[11:35] <misha> and other small stuff that I need
[11:35] <sagaci> misha: you don't need root for that
[11:35] <CGo> ohsix, I'll check it out after I unwind with some tea.
[11:35] <CGo> Thanks.
[11:36] <sagaci> misha: if it's just under your home folder, you could just use nautilus and copy+paste the files
[11:36] <misha> I can't backup root data without being as root
[11:36] <stimpie> jobbos: /msg NickServ help register
[11:36] <ohsix> CGo: natty ships nouveau; you can get some acceleration & xrandr if you want to try it out
[11:36] <misha> sagaci: it's PHP aplication
[11:37] <CGo> ohsix, I've switched back to Maverick at this point :)
[11:37] <misha> how to use nautilus there?
[11:37] <sagaci> misha: do you want a gui or do you want a command-line
[11:37] <CGo> I just.. I just couldn't man.
[11:37] <sagaci> misha: gksudo nautilus
[11:37] <ohsix> CGo: you don't need to use unity, pick the classic session on the login screen
[11:37] <misha> i know that command, but I can't use it from PHP
[11:37] <erUSUL> misha: make a sudoers entry for www-data making it able to run the espcific thing you want to run as root
[11:37] <jobbos> thanks stimpie
[11:38] <CGo> ohsix,  Oh. Heh.
[11:38] <ohsix> misha: if you want to do this directly from php you're probably doing it wrong
[11:38] <misha> erUSUL: great idea, i'll check it
[11:39] <samitheberber> erUSUL and misha: that sounds a security risk for me o.O
[11:40] <erUSUL> misha: but listen to ohsix probably make a php script that can be triggered from remote systems be able to run stuff as root is not the wisest idea ever ....
[11:40] <swatto> Hey all, im having issues getting Xchat to start up minimized to systray, i got a little bash script that runs which is just 'xchat minimize=2' (excluding quotes)...the application loads on startup but doesn't appear in systray and i can't see that its running unless i view with top
[11:41] <Dr_Willis> swatto:  i was thinking there was an extra xchat package to add the min to systray feature.
[11:41] <samitheberber> misha: so what is your ultimate goal? I didn't really get that from backlog
[11:41] <jk4lp> anyone know a place to find more nmap scripts
[11:42] <Dr_Willis> swatto:  does that command work from a terminal?
[11:42] <ohsix> jk4lp: fingers
[11:43] <jk4lp> ohsix: fingers?
[11:43] <jk4lp> do u mean os finger?
[11:43] <misha> samitheberber: it will be kind of small aplication that will be run every 24 hours by cron, it will backup my files and some little stuff
[11:44] <samitheberber> misha: and you want to use php, because that is the language you know?
[11:44] <misha> yes
[11:44] <samitheberber> and how you run that php-script?
[11:45] <samitheberber> in that cron call
[11:45] <misha> i'll think about that later, for now i need to build it
[11:46] <gandalfcome> Is there a channel for help with makefiles?
[11:46] <gedO> hello
[11:46] <samitheberber> misha: how you test it right now?
[11:46] <stimpie> can i use a shortcut to go to a window demanding attention?
[11:46] <ypxlf> hello
[11:46] <gedO> how to upload to ubuntu one files via nautilus??
[11:46] <mah454> where is /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions in ubuntu ?
 what do yo mean by test?
[11:47] <stimpie> gedO just sync a directory and ubuntu one should sync in the background
[11:47] <samitheberber> misha: are you running that in cli with php-command or in browser?
[11:47] <gedO> stimpie, how to syng?
[11:47] <samitheberber> misha: because www-data user feels like you are running it in browser
[11:47] <misha> yes in browser, why?
[11:47] <gedO> stimpie, Do I have to move files to ubunto one directory?
[11:48] <stimpie> if you run the ubuntu one application you can specify which directories to sync
[11:48] <akashm1990> Could someone help me with this ? -- http://askubuntu.com/questions/34356/user-permissions
[11:48] <ikonia> akashm1990: just ask your question
[11:49] <stimpie> gedO: or in nautilus right click a folder, goto ubuntu one and specify to sync
[11:49] <mah454> where is /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions in ubuntu ?
[11:49] <jk4lp> akashm1990:  did you chmod
[11:49] <samitheberber> misha: if you are planning to make it cron, you should focus to run it from cli
[11:49] <ohsix> mah454: ubuntu uses upstart, it probably ditched all the stuff like that
[11:49] <samitheberber> misha: then you get the rights of the user, who run it
[11:49] <gedO> stimpie, there is no ubuntu one
[11:49] <gedO> stimpie, thene I right click
[11:50] <akashm1990> ikonia, jk4lp What I need to do is give a user rwx permissions to all files in a folder, but nothing outside it. Also he must not be able to change system settings.
[11:50] <akashm1990> what would be the appropriate chmod
[11:50] <gedO> stimpie, sorry. Finded
[11:50] <samitheberber> misha: you can run it from cli by typing: php my_backup_script.php
[11:50] <gedO> stimpie, sorry. Found
[11:51] <jk4lp> akashm1990: im not sure, google chmod options and it shoudl answer your question
[11:51] <jk4lp> i know 777 makes it wide open full read and rite
[11:51] <misha> samitheberber: thanks for the tips :)
[11:51] <ikonia> akashm1990: what directory do you want to give him permisions to
[11:51] <ohsix> theres also the manual page
[11:51] <akashm1990> yes, thats the issue
[11:51] <samitheberber> misha: because if you run it from browser and you have your webserver to access from internet, everyone can run your script
[11:52] <akashm1990> ikonia, There will be a randomly generated directory. Making a kind of code evaluation system
[11:52] <samitheberber> misha: and later if you make some script where people can run something and you have root-rights from those script, something very bad can happen
[11:52] <ikonia> akashm1990: what is this mechanism for ?
[11:52] <akashm1990> 1st thing I want to make sure of is that the program should not do the dangerous commands of the type rm -rf
[11:53] <misha> samitheberber: no one can enter my webserver from outside
[11:53] <samitheberber> misha: ok, so it listen only localhost?
[11:53] <jk4lp> akashm1990:  couldnt you alawys remove the user from the root  sudo groups
[11:53] <misha> samitheberber: yes
[11:53] <LarsTorben> !ubottu
[11:53] <gamedrive> Hi guys. Plymouth is really bugging me. When I run plymouth manually to test a theme, it is not displaying the correct one (specified using update-alternatives --config default.plymouth). The correct theme is displayed during boot. What's wrong ?
[11:54] <samitheberber> misha: good :)
[11:54] <akashm1990> ikonia, the basic flow is user submits source via php, source saved to a randomly named directory, compiled and executed and output redirected to a file
[11:54] <ohsix> misha: they can from the inside; you can't trust the browser either
[11:54] <akashm1990> this file is then displayed
[11:54] <samitheberber> misha: but it is still very dangerous to have www-data in sudo-group
[11:54] <ikonia> akashm1990: tricky to script but not impossible
[11:54] <samitheberber> or in sudoer file
[11:55] <misha> but i can limit it no?
[11:55] <akashm1990> ikonia, the main thing i need to make sure of as of now is the code executed shouldnt change anything outside the directory
[11:55] <samitheberber> misha: if you add somebody in sudoer-file, it has full power of your system
[11:55] <misha> www-data    ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /path/where/i/need
[11:55] <akashm1990> can a user be restricted to a directory?
[11:56] <samitheberber> misha: it doesn't work like that
[11:56] <swatto> Dr_Willis: yep it does - works from the terminal
[11:56] <misha> samitheberber: so how it is works?
[11:57] <ikonia> akashm1990: chroot
[11:57] <samitheberber> misha: if you add someone in sudoer file, it has power of superuser
[11:58] <samitheberber> and superuser can't be limited in some directory or file
[11:58] <akashm1990> ikonia, thx, i think that will do
[11:58] <misha> samitheberber: webmin user has full privileges so how come it isn't danger?
[11:58] <samitheberber> misha: but if you run your script from cli, you have the right of user
[11:58] <ohsix> you can make them a sudoer for an account that is not root, then use group/user permissions to limit what it can touch
[11:59] <ohsix> misha: webmin uses helpers to do things
[12:00] <samitheberber> misha: you can run your script as root, so then it has full powers, but I think that you can make a backup-script without root permissions
[12:00] <Dr_Willis> swatto:  you could make it  'sleep 10' from the script. so it waits a bit befor starting. It may be the gnome desktop is not fully setup when the script runs.
[12:00] <Dr_Willis> akashm1990:  depends on what youmean by restricted.
[12:01] <swatto> Dr_Willis: i will try that, thanks :)
[12:02] <gandalfcome> I have trouble with a makefile (http://paste2.org/p/1355075). I wanted to know what the line $(OBJECTS): $(COMMON) does? Cheers
[12:02] <akashm1990> Dr_Willis, Essentially the program shouldnt be able to mess up the system (barring things like infinite loops, overflows,etc)
[12:02] <ohsix> swatto: proper login stuff is done with a .desktop file; and they have launch/delay/circumstance control
[12:03] <Dr_Willis> akashm1990:  theres all sorts of limits you can put on user ran apps.. but im not clear on your original problem/question.
[12:03] <Dr_Willis> akashm1990:  and how that is related to resticting to a directory.
[12:03] <op_amp> I want to start my download automatically 10 min after giving the wget command. Can I some how do this? Mainly I want to time control my terminal command.
[12:03] <ohsix> akashm1990: are you asking about chroot? for general use you want to use containers or something; chroot for a program isn't all that hard, but for a user it is impractical
[12:03] <akashm1990> ohsix, chroot seems to be fine
[12:04] <Dr_Willis> op_amp:  make a script or use 'sleep 10000 && wget commmand'  (changeing the #)
[12:04] <akashm1990> Dr_Willis, 1st step would be to prevent the user from executing commands which damage the system. restricting to a single directory seems to solve those
[12:04] <erUSUL> op_amp: sleep 600 && wget ......   &
[12:04] <ohsix> akashm1990: that just means they can't execute anything
[12:05] <Dr_Willis> akashm1990:  err. they run commands based on their PATH variavble. so i dont see how lockling the user to a single dir would solve anything.
[12:05] <Dr_Willis> akashm1990:   You can restrict their PATH, but they could still enter the full name to a binary.
[12:05] <akashm1990> Dr_Willis, The user wont have access to the computer
[12:06] <akashm1990> Dr_Willis, , the basic flow is user submits source via php, source saved to a randomly named directory, compiled and executed and output redirected to a file
[12:06] <ohsix> their logins won't even work if they have no access to anything
[12:06] <op_amp> Dr_Willis, erUSUL thanks a ton :)
[12:06] <Dr_Willis> akashm1990:   I think thats getting beyond the scope of Ubuntu support.  sounds like you woudl want to do stuff in a virtual machine for extra layers of sandboxing.
[12:06] <erUSUL> op_amp: or use at
[12:07] <akashm1990> Dr_Willis, yes, thats one of the ideas I got, but seemed a bit too extreme
[12:08] <pyry> #ubuntu
[12:08] <ohsix> akashm1990: use tcc's launch & load, remove the access to shared libraries
[12:08] <jrily> hi
[12:08] <Dr_Willis> akashm1990:  what you are tryign to do. sounds a bit odd also. :) but have fun.
[12:08] <jrily> anbody?
[12:08] <pyry> how to install win programs from cd???
[12:09] <ohsix> you can link the code with a stub that enables seccomp before the rest is ran too
[12:09] <ohsix> pyry: ask in #winehq
[12:09] <akashm1990> its academic proof of concept stuff
[12:09] <pyry> ok
[12:09] <pyry> thx
[12:09] <ohsix> akashm1990: well then, don't you need something clever?
[12:09] <ohsix> like they tried to do with nacl
[12:10] <akashm1990> no, something that just works will also do
[12:10] <ohsix> akashm1990: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seccomp
[12:11] <ohsix> if the stub can reasonably be assured to not be compromised that should suffice
[12:11] <mah454> I can not find finctions file in /etc/init.d ...
[12:11] <ohsix> BUT, the act of compiling can be exploited as well
[12:12] <ohsix> mah454: thats because it's not there. what lead you to believe it would be?
[12:12] <akashm1990> ohsix, Not looking for that level of protection
[12:12] <ohsix> akashm1990: there are no half measures
[12:12] <akashm1990> the target give was to prevent rm -rf
[12:12] <madurax86> hello im installing ubuntu 10.10 on a rather old celeron, the installation goes on great but on boot it doesnt load up gui
[12:13] <madurax86> what can i do to get it to use default video config?
[12:13] <ohsix> akashm1990: that'll be stopped
[12:13] <akashm1990> and messing around with other files on the system
[12:13] <mah454> ohsix i install IBSng in ubuntu-server . in IBSng daumon have this line ". /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions"
[12:13] <ohsix> madurax86: unless you created an xorg.conf it should be doing that already
[12:14] <madurax86> ohsix: nope i didnt make a xorg.conf
[12:14] <madurax86> all the checking fails
[12:14] <madurax86> mode checks
[12:14] <Jackneill> anyone can you help me? with monodevelop, when i start it, i get this exception: Unhandled Exception: System.TypeLoadException: A type load exception has occurred.
[12:14] <thedude1> my nm-applet icon is grexed out and says "networkmanager is not running" - what do?
[12:14] <thedude1> *greyed
[12:15] <pyry> no one answers on #winehq
[12:16] <ohsix> pyry: bummer, be patient, we don't do windows software support
[12:16] <erUSUL> thedude1: sudo restart network-manager
[12:16] <IdleOne> pyry: have you installed Wine?
[12:16] <ohsix> thedude1: well, something killed networkmanager or prevented it from istalling
[12:17] <Jackneill> can you help me?
[12:17] <thedude1> erUSUL: "restart: Unknown instance: "
[12:17] <thedude1> ohsix: I just freshly reinstalled it, without problems I thought
[12:17] <ohsix> thedude1: make sure ubuntu-desktop is installed, sounds like someone tricked you into dumping nm
[12:18] <madurax86> ohsix: how to let it work like it worked in the installation?
[12:18] <erUSUL> thedude1: pgrep -l NetworkManager
[12:19] <pyry> yup
[12:19] <thedude1> ohsix: i killed nm myself, the applet disappeared. also "ubuntu-desktop: command not found"
[12:19] <thedude1> erUSUL: no reaction
[12:19] <Autoclesis> solved a weird problem if any care
[12:19] <madurax86> ohsix: im getting this your cpu doesnt have security..bla bla the no execute thing does it affect this?
[12:19] <ohsix> madurax86: dunno, what did you do to make it act any other way?
[12:19] <thedude1> (afk now)
[12:19] <ohsix> madurax86: no
[12:20] <IdleOne> pyry: ok, pop in the install CD and then navigate to the folder with the .exe and double click it.
[12:20] <madurax86> ohsix: dont know just after installing it just says it cant load up x, the log says there are screens but no usable config
[12:21] <ohsix> madurax86: are you using an s3 or via video card?
[12:21] <madurax86> yea
[12:22] <DavidJonas> can anybody help me installing a nagios plugin (script -> http://www.techno-obscura.com/~delgado/code/check_megaraid_sas) I copied it to the nagios libexec folder and gave the right permissions and tested the script. now how do I hook it up to nagios?
[12:22] <madurax86> ohsix: yes
[12:22] <kwtm> erUSUL hangs out here?  I didn't know that.  Anyway, thedude1: instead of "sudo restart network-manager" try "sudo start network-manager"?
[12:22] <Autoclesis> Anyone who can't get the GUI after update who has a wacom?
[12:22] <ohsix> madurax86: thats tough, they have among the worst & ill supported drivers :[ though ubuntu should try at least to use vesa before it gives up, i dunno what to tell you
[12:23] <filip_> hello
[12:23] <madurax86> ohsix: the installation and live session works flawlessly
[12:23] <rudolph> hellp
[12:23] <rudolph> *hellp filip
[12:23] <madurax86> ohsix: how to set vesa?
[12:24] <filip_> whats happend rudolph?
[12:24] <rudolph> nothing, I thought you were going to ask a questions filip :)
[12:24] <ohsix> madurax86: i do not know, sorry
[12:25] <ohsix> madurax86: though i suggest filing a bug if the livecd works but the install doesn't
[12:25] <madurax86> ohsix: hmm isnt both systems the same?
[12:26] <ohsix> madurax86: nope, and i don't know what tricks the livecd might be doing, they are very close to the same though
[12:27] <madurax86> ohsix: ok
[12:29] <centralPower> I have one connection with static IP and low bandwith and one connection with ynamic ip and high bandwith i want to use static ip frm one connection and bandwith from the second connection, I have server I want users to connect to it
[12:29] <centralPower> can i do this?
[12:30] <erUSUL> !fhs | dr0id
[12:30] <erUSUL> !fstab | dr0id
[12:30] <ohsix> centralPower: if they go to different networks, not in a useful way
[12:30] <chariaf> hey ya 4all
[12:31] <centralPower> ohsix, how you mean 2 connections go in same pc
[12:32] <ohsix> centralPower: it's an ip networking thing, if you don't know i have nothing to say beyond what i already have
[12:33] <robbit10> #kubuntu is completely silent, and I need help. Plasma-desktop is segfaulting every time I log in. I just installed Kubuntu, and it worked well the first two times I logged in. Then suddenly, when I logged out and back in, poof. plasma-desktop keeps segfaulting, even after reboot.
[12:33] <centralPower> ohsix, what is difference between desktop and server ubuntu?
[12:34] <schweegi> robbit10, if you use KDE SC 4.6.1, reinstall the kubuntu-desktop meta package
[12:34] <erUSUL> !backups | dr0id
[12:34] <ohsix> centralPower: one uses the ubuntu-desktop virtual and the other ubuntu-server, it just means different installed packages, but they are not mutually exclusive
[12:34] <schweegi> robbit10, and the plasma-desktop meta package. it worked fine for me
[12:34] <HouseMD> robbit10: make a new user and try login with the new user, if that works..some config broke it, go to normal user and rm -rf .kde
[12:35] <centralPower> server just don't have gnome or ?
[12:36] <centralPower> is ok to install gnome on the server?
[12:36] <ohsix> centralPower: you can ask your package manager
[12:36] <BlouBlou> centralPower: yes, why not?
[12:36] <centralPower> and should I install some package to host website on ubuntu desktop?
[12:36] <madurax86> live cd version works great but on the installation X crashes saying screens found but non have usable configuration
[12:37] <robbit10> HouseMD: It worked! Thanks a lot :)
[12:38] <robbit10> HouseMD: Switching to a more comfortable IRC client, see you in a tick.
[12:38] <HouseMD> robbit10: np, glad you sorted out :)
[12:40] <alexanderal> how do I install gnome3 on ubuntu?
[12:40] <robbit10> Thanks.

[12:42] <byz> hi
[12:42] <byz> who are you ?
[12:42] <thedude1> was afk ill now, nm is on it seems ...
[12:42] <Fudge> hi guys, with totem movie player does anyone have trouble playing .mkv files. cant seak, crashes through movies. ive experienced with quite a few
[12:43] <thedude1> kwtm: but nm-applet doesnt show me my 3g connection i created before ...
[12:43] <HouseMD> Fudge: try mplayer
[12:43] <byz> i don't know
[12:44] <byz> I am chinese
[12:44] <byz> l
[12:44] <kwtm> thedude1: Hmm... I might not be able to help you much from here on.  I use Kubuntu and don't use nm-applet (I tend to do things from the command-line).  Tell whoever was/will be helping you that network-manager is now running.  Now you know how to start or restart it.
[12:45] <thedude1> kwtm: can you tell me how I can connect with 3g using commandline? :)
[12:46] <byz> ubntu
[12:46] <byz> redhat
[12:46] <raven_> FSPOT does not import videos to the right date - any solution?
[12:46] <kwtm> byz: Do you need help with English?  People generally don't use Chinese here.  您需要幫忙可能要通過 Google translate 翻譯服務﹐或找中文的 channel.
[12:46] <erUSUL> Fudge: use vlc? or smplayer

[12:47] <kwtm> thedude1: Will try.  Do you have info on your 3g channel?  I don't know that much about "3g" --is that by cellular modem, then?
[12:47] <rileyp> Video is 3.1486 frames behind audio (too slow), dropping frame to catch up.
[12:48] <thedude1> kwtm: yes, it is cellular. what exactly do you mean by "3g channel"? my ISP?
[12:48] <kwtm> thedude1: Sorry, I meant "3g connection", as in "my 3g connection i created before"
[12:49] <kwtm> thedude1: I may have to go soon, so we'll work quickly so you have more info in case I have to bug out suddenly.  What does "ifconfig" give?  What interfaces?
[12:49] <kwtm> thedude1: I'm guessing   eth0   and   wlan0   and   lo.  What else?  Are you running Ubuntu on a cell phone, then?
[12:50] <Chinta> Could anyone help me out to get a wlan wnu-a stick (a-link) to work under 10.10? I am sure it must be piece of cake if you know what to do... right?
[12:50] <thedude1> I would need wwan0, but it isnt displayed here
[12:50] <thedude1> i'm running ubuntu on a netbook with internal 3g modem
[12:50] <kwtm> thedude1: What about "ifconfig -a"?
[12:51] <thedude1> kwtm: exact same
[12:51] <kwtm> thedude1: I'm guessing 10.10?  (I don't think 11.04 is out yet.)
[12:51] <rileyp> all wireless lan help is pretty much go find a guide if you cant find a guide your pretty much out of luck unless its omething simple like an ip config or something
[12:52] <kwtm> thedude1: I guess my noobly knowledge stops here.  If even "sudo ifconfig -a" doesn't show a wwan0 connection, then we're going to have to go to lsmod'ing and seeing why your internal 3g modem isn't up.
[12:52] <kwtm> thedude1: Right, 3g modem might be specialized enough that you need to ask the forums, which means more detailed help but it won't be an instant-response type of thing.
[12:53] <Chinta> rileyp: thanks for the input, but I think in this case is that the driver provided with the wnua doesnt work with the kernel of the current version of ubuntu...
[12:53] <cerix> \list
[12:53] <Fudge> it sjsut i like totem coz its very accessible with orca
[12:53] <kwtm> thedude1: Other than googling, which I'm sure you know about, you may also want to try... hmm, I wonder if there's a "live CD" equivalent for netbooks (like, boot from USB)?
[12:53] <thedude1> kwtm: okay then, I'll try and solve this via the forums. thanks! have a nice day
[12:54] <kwtm> thedude1: best of luck!
[12:54] <rileyp> Chintra so you think some one in this channel can help resolve that?
[12:54] <rileyp> Chinta so you think some one in this channel can help resolve that?
[12:56] <Chinta> rileyp: Yea, I thought that it might be possible a different driver has been develop for this kernel, considering is a-link's, or that someone might want to spare the time to enlight an avid wannabe learner like myself.
[12:56] <Sylux> ...
[12:57] <byz> 哪个是中人？
[12:57] <Sylux> what'a !?
[12:57] <rileyp> normaly wlan problem if the card isnt auto detected are almost impossible to resolve even for well versed ubuntuer...God help a new person to ubuntu.
[12:57] <byz> 有没有说中文的
[12:58] <rileyp> Finding a guide and knowing someone else has actually got the card to work is the starting point.
[12:58] <rileyp> Not asking can we help fix it which we probably cant
[12:59] <rileyp> Chinta Finding a guide and knowing someone else has actually got the card to work is the starting point.
[12:59] <nixjr> whats sandybirdge support in ubuntu like?
[13:00] <nixjr> im looking to build an htpc and want to use the onbard graphics
[13:00] <rileyp> nixjr asrock ion
[13:00] <rileyp> is the way to go
[13:00] <Chinta> I see... bit if i put iwconfig it shows the card is actually detected. I thought it might have been an easier, but if you suggest it isnt, and that this isnt the right place to try my luck and see if someone can help, then, I apologise.
[13:01] <rileyp> Chinat no meed say sorry Im just trying to help If you can google and find someone has your particar wireless lan card working in ubuntu then thst is starting point
[13:02] <nixjr> rileyp, i was thinking about getting this one http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=LA0nxZWFGntAqGRe&templete=2
[13:03] <Chinta> I appreciate your help, rileyp. I dont mean to sound bitter or anything; I just want to apologise for being a pain in the ass.
[13:03] <mikewho> hi there, ive got a question for someone who uses apple machine with ubuntu, ive got problme with booting on macbook pro
[13:04] <swatto> Since getting xchat to start minimized at boot i can no longer see my bluetooth or network manager icons :( they are there though because if i right-click the sub-menu comes up, any ideas>
[13:05] <swatto> hmm changed theme and they are there now
[13:06] <enterkey> I can't connect to my wireless network with wpa key but I can with wep
[13:06] <enterkey> any idea why is this happening?
[13:07] <benzaldehyde> swatto: helps to say what you are dealing with top, bottom panel etc.
[13:08] <Wyn> Heyya, anybody got any experince in webcamstudio and Red5 ?
[13:08] <enterkey> ubuntu have some issue with wpa encryption?
[13:08] <benzaldehyde> enterkey: did you properly edit wpa_supplicat.conf and /etc/network/interfaces
[13:08] <mikewho> enterkey: try changing encryption method
[13:08] <benzaldehyde> *supplicant
[13:08] <azbr00> join #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:09] <enterkey> let me check
[13:09] <enterkey> i didn't edited at all
[13:09] <enterkey> where can I find that file
[13:09] <mikewho> enterkey: i've used wpa2 and it works on every machine without changing anything
[13:09] <benzaldehyde> enterkey: not sure try whereis
[13:09] <enterkey> ok
[13:09] <enterkey> sec
[13:10] <mikewho> anybody uses apple machine with ubuntu, need some help with booting
[13:10] <enterkey> i have adited the connection and set wpa 2 personal encription and entered correct password so far and it cant connect
[13:10] <benzaldehyde> mikewho: i use a similar apple architecture, powerpc64
[13:10] <enterkey> benzaldehyde, and what should I put i that file?
[13:11] <benzaldehyde> enterkey: have you tried /etc/init.d/networking restart
[13:11] <benzaldehyde> enterkey: i am not sure, i use wep, sorry
[13:11] <enterkey> in interfaces file there are only 2 lines :
[13:11] <enterkey> auto lo
[13:11] <enterkey> iface lo inet loopback
[13:11] <SuNotisima> ...new problem now – network-manager is up and running, my connection's there - but when I try to use it, I get "GSM network: Disconnected" as notification. why? my phone is running on the same network and is fine.
[13:11] <enterkey> wep is ok?
[13:11] <enterkey> i heard wep is way to insecure
[13:12] <benzaldehyde> enterkey: essentially you want to set wlan0 iface underneath that with either static of dhcp with a call to your wpa supplicant configuration
[13:12] <benzaldehyde> enterkey: so that it does what is supposed to on boot up
[13:12] <benzaldehyde> *static or dhcp
[13:13] <enterkey> benzaldehyde, I am afraid I didn't uderstood you
[13:13] <Wyn> SuNotisima, yeah, gsm will frive you nuts, it cuts out time to time on mine as well, some imtes takes a few clicks to re-conncet
[13:13] <Mahjongg> hello, I have lenovo x200 notebook. Sleep function stopped working after I have upgraded to maverick. It was working perfectly in lucid. How can I fix this? The moon keeps flashing but the system does not go into sleep mode. (earlier the moon  blinked copule of times while going into the sleep mode, and then lit steady afterwards...)
[13:13] <Guest28709> both are rubbisn wep and wpa but wep is a lot more insecure than wpa but they can both be cracked
[13:14] <enterkey> and ac address filtering?
[13:14] <SuNotisima> Wyn: yeah I remember this from a few months ago but it was never this bad. I can't even get a single connection when clicking a hundred times
[13:14] <enterkey> mac*
[13:14] <ruslan> if you have strong password for wpa, noone can hack it
[13:14] <aguitel> anyway to install gnome3 in ubuntu ?
[13:14] <ruslan> aguitel, google it, its easy)
[13:15] <Guest28709> if you have good rainbow tables nothing is un crackable
[13:15] <Wyn> SuNotisima, youch, I tend to disconnet then /etc/init.d/networking restart if that happens, if it was working before unless you removed some stuff should be OK, butsie but OK
[13:15] <aguitel> ruslan, you did it?
[13:15] <benzaldehyde> enterkey: it can be less insecure with a difficult custom password, crackers and network hackers use brute force attempts against common dictionary files to guess your password and then compare it with the hashed value that they sniff or snort from packets that your router sends out, often disconnecting the host to create many extra packet, this happens less with wpa because the only time to get or sniff the info is during the 'hands
[13:15] <ruslan> does anyone have invite to bitme?
[13:15] <rileyp> Mahjongg cut your losses  easiest way is to install lucid and try again when you can google and find your netbook sleeps in maverick
[13:16] <benzaldehyde> enterkey: nothing it full-proof
[13:16] <enterkey> mac address filtering?
[13:16] <ruslan> aguitel: no, i didn't. i actually dont like ver3. you can check how to install it on youtube
[13:16] <enterkey> is that strong
[13:16] <whoknows_> hiall
[13:17] <SuNotisima> Wyn: no reaction ...
[13:18] <benzaldehyde> enterkey: i do not know
[13:18] <Guest94974> hy
[13:18] <enterkey> ok
[13:19] <benzaldehyde> enterkey: i always tell people that i am less and less concerned with security these days because it is just a simple fact that i do not having anything to lose
[13:19] <mikewho> benzaldehyde: have you had any trouble booting ubuntu cd? have you used refit? or just the regular cd?
[13:19] <benzaldehyde> mikewho: i use natty as a fully installed OS
[13:20] <mikewho> benzaldehyde: i keep getting blankscreen or icon with question mark on boot
[13:20] <Wyn> SuNotisima, new install or recent error ?
[13:20] <benzaldehyde> mikewho: haven't experienced many troubles with it, occasionally midori will segmentation fault and when i upgrade the kernel it has a crypt erorr that may need to be addressed in initramfs but other than that pretty smooth
[13:20] <SuNotisima> Wyn: i reinstalled network-manager twice today, because it hadn't worked in months ..
[13:20] <SuNotisima> OS is no fresh install
[13:21] <benzaldehyde> mikewho: there is a hardware compatibility database on the main site i believe hdwdb.ubuntu.com
[13:21] <Wyn> SuNotisima, ah, and then re-setup your gsm connection ? Phone or 3G USB modem ?
[13:21] <mikewho> bzh: i can't find anything about it, everywhere it says just to boot up the media (cd or usb)
[13:21] <SuNotisima> Wyn: 3g usb modem, internal. did re-setup the connection, didn't work.
[13:22] <mikewho> ok i'll look it up, i thought that when its a intel based mac it will just work, exept some modules
[13:22] <mikewho> thank you
[13:22] <benzaldehyde> mikewho: my favorite cd is the alternate
[13:23] <benzaldehyde> mikewho: i have hit or miss experience with desktop images
[13:24] <mikewho> oh, ill try that one, thanks
[13:24] <Wyn> SuNotisima, USB then, look for usb-modeswitch and install and or update
[13:25] <nyaa> I'm gonna try the beta out, anything I should know or take into consideration?
[13:25] <Mahjongg> hello, I have lenovo x200 notebook. Sleep function stopped working after I have upgraded to maverick. It was working perfectly in lucid. How can I fix this? The moon keeps flashing but the system does not go into sleep mode. (earlier the moon  blinked copule of times while going into the sleep mode, and then lit steady afterwards...)
[13:26] <pasjr> Hello, has anyone else lost usb support in 11.04?
[13:27] <jessicaBR> hello how to flip my ASUS built-in camera image? I'm upsidedown.... :(
[13:27] <hihihi100> only way i can access an external hard drive is mounting it via terminal, how can I delete the trash folder?
[13:27] <Wyn> jessicaBR, are you drunk ? if not get really drunk then it may look the right way up :)
[13:28] <jessicaBR> Wyn, I am drunk... Still i believe my camera image is not ok... :)
[13:28] <WaltherFI> hm, i should start lurking around here more often, helping people... i used to do that some time ago
[13:28] <Wyn> jessicaBR, it isnt,  common problem, they get put in upside down, seriously
[13:29] <Wyn> jessicaBR, theres is a module parm vflip you can set to 1, cant remember exact load syntex, google will help
[13:29] <userdel> jsessicaBR : what's so special in ASUS's camera image
[13:29] <Mahjongg> suspend problem, how to track the problem/
[13:29] <Mahjongg> suspend problem, how to track the problem?
[13:30] <Wyn> jessicaBR, or getting so drunk everyday it flips around but that is a little impratical
[13:30] <WaltherFI> Mahjongg: what kind of problem?
[13:30] <Wyn> Mahjongg, dmesg, see what process is hanging it / logs etc
[13:30] <Mahjongg> WaltherFI, , I have lenovo x200 notebook. Sleep function stopped working after I have upgraded to maverick. It was working perfectly in lucid. How can I fix this? The moon keeps flashing but the system does not go into sleep mode. (earlier the moon  blinked copule of times while going into the sleep mode, and then lit steady afterwards...)
[13:30] <WaltherFI> Mahjongg: do you have enough big swap area?
[13:31] <jessicaBR> userdel, camera image is upside down.... I think ASUS assembled my webcam up side down, and now I have to put it right by software.... Also have this problem in Windows
[13:31] <Mahjongg> WaltherFI, 7813120 blocks for 4Gig ram
[13:31] <ruslan> swap should be 2xram
[13:31] <jqke> hi there, i'm trying to use the -subcp option in mplayer but it seems it doesn't know the option "error parsing -subcp"
[13:31] <userdel> jessicaBR: which software ? is it cheese ?
[13:31] <jqke> what should i do?
[13:31] <WaltherFI> Mahjongg: swap should be around 2x ram
[13:32] <jessicaBR> userdel, skype and gmail (gtalk)
[13:32] <Mahjongg> WaltherFI, I believe it is, and it was working perfectly in lucid
[13:32] <benzaldehyde> WaltherFI: not in my opinion
[13:32] <lance__--___> why
[13:32] <WaltherFI> benzaldehyde: for hibernation to work at all, you need over the amount of ram
[13:32] <lance__--___> ah
[13:32] <benzaldehyde> WaltherFI: k
[13:32] <Pegasus-Rider> Hello! IDK if this is the right channel for the question, but #Canonical is supposed to be internal, so... Is anyone able to sign up to Ubuntu perhaps-SSO service (credentials One, Cloud & co. have in common, you know)
[13:33] <WaltherFI> benzaldehyde: and twice the amount is just a handy measure of 'a bit more than ram'
[13:33] <benzaldehyde> WaltherFI: the rule of thumb is out dated
[13:33] <benzaldehyde> *IMO
[13:34] <Pegasus-Rider> (1926canistelubuntu<serial number> is the error code I get)
[13:36] <Mahjongg> WaltherFI, swap is 7.45G
[13:36] <WaltherFI> Mahjongg: should be well enough
[13:36] <userdel> jessicaBR: are you there?
[13:37] <WaltherFI> Mahjongg: hm... did you upgrade from update manager, upgrade from stick, or perform a clean install?
[13:37] <jessicaBR> userdel, still here
[13:37] <userdel> jessicaBR:   solution -> http://www.edmartechguide.com/2010/09/asus-laptop-webcam-upside-down-after.html
[13:37] <jessicaBR> userdel, found anything?
[13:37] <Mahjongg> WaltherFI, update manager
[13:37] <jessicaBR> userdel, lemme check that
[13:38] <WaltherFI> Mahjongg: might have something to do with it - as sad as it is, i've had only bad experiences when upgrading with the manager, some things always break
[13:38] <WaltherFI> Mahjongg: i would recommend installing pseudo-clean install - boot from stick, install on the same drive but don't tick the box for format
[13:39] <WaltherFI> Mahjongg: with my laptop i upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10 and it didn't wake up the wireless features from sleep
[13:39] <jessicaBR> userdel, this might work for windows, but what about linux?
[13:39] <WaltherFI> Mahjongg: clean install solved problems
[13:40] <userdel> jessicaBR: try downloading the drivers as said
[13:41] <Mahjongg> WaltherFI, my experience with updates, something got broken each time, but clean install did not solve the problem either... :( but I do not have a better advice than yours at this time...
[13:41] <Mahjongg> WaltherFI, do youknow wchich packages handle sleep/wake stuff? I could reinstall them...
[13:42] <WaltherFI> Mahjongg: you could also try getting another kernel perhaps?
[13:42] <Mahjongg> that's a good one too
[13:42] <jessicaBR> userdel, asus does not have drivers for linux
[13:43] <Walt> could someone recommend a cross platform disk indexing software?
[13:43] <userdel> jessicaBR: ok.   have you used cheese?
[13:44] <iszak> Is 10.10 relatively safe to use on a production server?
[13:44] <benzaldehyde> iszak: it is not a LTS
[13:44] <iszak> I know, but in terms of stability, it's still good?
[13:44] <nyaa> what's the last LTS release?
[13:44] <iszak> 10.04
[13:45] <phrozen> hello, I have a problem with saving password in subclipse 1.6.x in eclipse galileo 3.5 + ;/ I do not have save password checkbox anywhere and I have to type in pw 20 times per synchronization (UBUNTU 10.10)
[13:45] <jessicaBR> userdel, does cheese allow over internet conversation?
[13:45] <benzaldehyde> iszak: you might look into Lucid Lynx, server support is 2010-2015
[13:45] <nyaa> iszak, I've found it to be decent, but I think that if I had a production server that was important I would try an LTS, or maybe even Debian
[13:45] <iszak> benzaldehyde, it's not about support, I just want to know if it's stable.
[13:45] <nyaa> they just seem to have longer support
[13:45] <iszak> it's not about the support.
[13:45] <iszak> it's about the stability, I don't mind upgrading when the EOL comes around.
[13:46] <benzaldehyde> iszak: it is stable but the next stable release drops in 18 days, so
[13:47] <ayrton> hey guys i get this when i try to move songs from a samsong t10 to an ipod touch, None of the tracks to be transferred are in a format supported by the target device, and no encoders are available for the supported formats.
[13:47] <domin_> i have got a question: is gnome 3 works under ubuntu ?
[13:47] <iszak> benzaldehyde, thanks, just this VPS (Xen based) hosting provider won't put Ubuntu 10.10 as available
[13:49] <userdel> jessicaBR: afaik skype and others use v4l  package to get the camera stream. if the settings can be changed to flip it the gtalk and skype will have inverted stream.
[13:49] <benzaldehyde> iszak: i can relate--they ought to
[13:49] <iszak> benzaldehyde, yeah it's not like I'm asking them to drop 10.04, just some users like up-to-date versions.
[13:51] <benzaldehyde> iszak: 2012 is the next LTS, not very far from now
[13:51] <iszak> Sure, but I don't want a LTS
[13:51] <WaltherFI> LTS means nothing, btw :P
[13:51] <benzaldehyde> iszak: one year 18 days to be exacy
[13:51] <benzaldehyde> *exact
[13:51] <WaltherFI> Of course they will be providing updates etc for those for longer time
[13:51] <BluesKaj> Hey all
[13:51] <iszak> benzaldehyde, I don't live in years
[13:51] <benzaldehyde> iszak: :D
[13:52] <userdel> jessicaBR: are you there?
[13:52] <Mahjongg> how to add kernel-ppa?
[13:52] <WaltherFI> userdel: doesn't look like that
[13:52] <WaltherFI> Mahjongg: apt-add-repository?
[13:52] <Mahjongg> WaltherFI, couldn't find the uri for kernel-ppa actually
[13:53] <iszak> https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa ?
[13:53] <WaltherFI> Mahjongg: sudo apt-cache search?
[13:53] <benzaldehyde> iszak: you could take your business to another VPS if you were so inclinded
[13:54] <benzaldehyde> *inclined
[13:54] <iszak> benzaldehyde, indeed however it seems they've come around to my way of thinking.
[13:54] <Mahjongg> WaltherFI, that would shearch only the added repositories, I couldn't add kernel-ppa repository yet
[13:54] <xangua> WaltherFI: Mahjongg sudo add-apt-repository <ppa's name> , instructions are on the page itself
[13:54] <arand> Mahjongg: In general you don't want to add the kernel-PPA
[13:54] <Fitfte> I'm running ubuntu on one HDD and windows 7 on another, can I access my ubntu stuff from my win 7 HDD?
[13:55] <Mahjongg> arand, what is the proper way?
[13:55] <WaltherFI> xangua: i thought Mahjongg said they couldn't add it for some reason
[13:55] <iszak> Fitfte, yes with a utility ext2explorer or something
[13:55] <Fitfte> iszak thanks, uhm is it possible to boot to my ubuntu parititon?
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> Fitfte: no as Microsoft are too short ighted to code access to ext based file systems despite the definitions being fully available
[13:55] <WaltherFI> Fitfte: is the ubuntu system formatted to ext2, ext3, ext4 or ntfs?
[13:55] <arand> Mahjongg: Or, hmm, what is it you want to test with the new kernel.
[13:55] <arand> Mahjongg: (Depending, I might be wrong.)
[13:55] <WaltherFI> arand: sleep feature broke
[13:55] <Fitfte> waltherFi EXT3
[13:55] <Mahjongg> arand, sleep does not work anymore since I upgraded to maverick from lucid
[13:56] <iszak> Fitfte, sure but you would be accessing from the ubuntu hard drive not the windows 7?
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> Fitfte: if it's ext3 you may get read acces with http://fs-driver.org
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> Fitfte: make sure it now runs on win7 before installing
[13:56] <iszak> ActionParsnip, nice! thanks didn't know about that
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> Fitfte: funnily enough, Ubuntu has full read and write access to your NTFS partition despite the definitions being hidden and unpublished
[13:57] <WaltherFI> ActionParsnip: yeah, all those 'super-hidden' files of windows os'es :P
[13:57] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: what do you mean unpublished & hidden?
[13:57] <WaltherFI> ohsix: you can find files on the windows root that you simply can't see under windows
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: the data structure of NTFS is proprietary and not published by Microsoft, unlike Linux filesystems
[13:58] <ohsix> i see
[13:58] <arand> Mahjongg: And you want to test with the very bleeding edge or just a somewhat updated version?
[13:58] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: you're losing me
[13:58] <WaltherFI> like, the flag boot splash image on winXP
[13:58] <Mahjongg> arand, yes any of the two
[13:58] <WaltherFI> arand: only problem is that after updating, they can't get the sleep feature working
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: the definitions of how the data is stored and how the filesystem fundamentally works in Ext4 is completely free to read online
[13:58] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: as stated you seemed to say it was in spite of Ubuntu
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: it is published and people can read it and code things to use the structure properly
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: with me so far?
[13:59] <ohsix> ntfs isn't different from a lot of filesystems linux can read/write
[14:00] <ohsix> maybe thats where you lost me
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: how NTFS stores data and how the files are accessed is NOT published as Microsoft are keeping how NTFS works a secret
[14:00] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: its not much of a secret if they let people execute the code
[14:00] <ohsix> i get what you're saying though
[14:00] <phrozen> hello, I have a problem with saving password in subclipse 1.6.x in eclipse galileo 3.5 + ;/ I do not have save password checkbox anywhere and I have to type in pw 20 times per synchronization (UBUNTU 10.10)
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: yet Ubuntu can write and read NTFS despite the secrecy, yet Windows cannot do anything to Ext4
[14:01] <ohsix> the intent to make it secret is dubious however
[14:01] <benzaldehyde> ActionParsnip: how much of a secret could it be if gparted can do ntfs
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> benzaldehyde: thats a best effort by the ntfstools team
[14:01] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: ntfs-3g can do it; lacking it, linux can read it, ubuntu doesn't do it
[14:01] <arand> Mahjongg: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-team/+archive/ppa might be possible to temorarily add, and install.
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> benzaldehyde: they may be right on the button but until they see the definitions they will never know for certain
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: you get my point though
[14:02] <ohsix> theres no useful reason to include hfs or ext4 or any filesystem you can think of in windows
[14:02] <calvim> quit
[14:02] <benzaldehyde> ActionParsnip: makes sense
[14:02] <ohsix> i do
[14:02] <calvim> exit
[14:02] <richard_> hi
[14:02] <Mahjongg> arand, seems like all they have is 2.6.35-28.50 I have 2.6.35-28.49 currently
[14:02] <arand> !mainline | Mahjongg otherwise look into this for the very latest testing
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: what about dual/multi booters? People need to have an NTFS partition to share data between because Windows is so lacking
[14:02] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: from my understanding back in the day people didn't know what could happen, they knew at the moment what they did rather well
[14:03] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: thats a red herring, you need a common filesystem  to share stuff between operating systems anyways
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: you should be able to simply access the other file system from the other OS.
[14:04] <arand> Mahjongg: That one is supposed to be for testing and debugging mainly though, it may give a hint if it is something that is in the works though, and will help if you create a bug stating that it is fixed in mainline, which may allow them to backport the fix
[14:04] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: ok, every os can access any filesystem, so you can pick any of them; then a device comes along thatcan't
[14:04] <daniel_> ahojte :)
[14:05] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: thats where should's fall down, its far easier and preferable to just add ignorant read access for an already common enough filesystem
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: I don't mean to have the install on it, just to access the data
[14:05] <Mahjongg> arand, would you think a clean install would help?
[14:05] <ohsix> i didn't either
[14:05] <Mahjongg> arand, i had upgraded from lucid where it was working perfectly
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: I just find it funny and frustrating for dual booters how windows cannot access an open file system, when many teams have prodded and probed TFS and put effort in so Linux can access NTFS
[14:06] <arand> Mahjongg: I would guess that a reinstall might not fix it, do you happen to have the kernels left from your Lucid install by the way?
[14:07] <Mahjongg> arand, nope, removed all since I did not have problem with kernels for a loong time
[14:07] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: and i just put everything on ntfs; and only because of limits with fat32, the simplest one that works for interchange is probably the best
[14:07] <sacarlson> ActionParsnip: there is third party software the will let windows read ext4 you do know that don't you?
[14:08] <raven_> how to update with update-manager without xserver?
[14:09] <ActionParsnip> sacarlson: thats a step in the right direction but it should do it on its own
[14:09] <ohsix> only problem with that is when its not just windows that wants to read it; i considered that before i chose how to allocate my storage
[14:09] <BlouBlou> is private flag recommended in NickServ?
[14:09] <Kawohi> after a week of being on ubuntu/linux its freakin' great. so much better then windows
[14:09] <BlouBlou> err, chnan fail
[14:09] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: that's working around the lack of functionality and is used by many but I think it should be able to do it
[14:10] <sacarlson> ActionParsnip: you mean it should be built into the released window?  I guess it's not in there best interests http://www.soluvas.com/read-browse-explore-open-ext2-ext3-ext4-partition-filesystem-from-windows-7/
[14:10] <ohsix> ActionParsnip: talking about what something should do is almost always lose; they have no practical reason to, and they don't read hfs either, and udf was only out of necessity and is _bad_ on windows
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> ohsix: indeed
[14:11] <debd> I have two channels feed right in one window on irssi; can anyone tell me how to reply to that other channel without creating a separate window?
[14:11] <ohsix> debd: /m #chan, or switch to it with ^x
[14:11] <benzaldehyde> debd: ctrl+p
[14:12] <damno> oh thanks OHSIX
[14:13] <ohsix> damno: its awkward at first, but i have my windows sorted by topic now; and usually one is of prime concern, the rest are ok as /m #
[14:13] <atlef> damno: you could also install terminator, which lets you split the terminal window
[14:15] <ohsix> atlef: irssi has that built in, but it wouldn't switch between them
[14:15] <damno> ohsix: I usually am in 2 channels all the time, so I like it better than split windows
[14:15] <ohsix> atlef: also splitvt & tmux 4 lyf
[14:15] <atlef> ok
[14:15] <damno> atlef, Its already available
[14:16] <benzaldehyde> damno: and you can split more than just two
[14:16] <benzaldehyde> i mean one
[14:16] <sasha> i have a cisco valet router, but i dont know howto configure it under ubuntu. did anybody experience it?
[14:16] <Kawohi>  annoying! does anybody know why chrome goes fullscreen doesn't change unless the browser is closed?
[14:16] <damno> benzaldehyde: yes, I know.. their help page is really helpfull ;)
[14:17] <benzaldehyde> damno: k
[14:18] <XOXO1> hey, I somehow uninstalled gnome-session and now I cant get any further than login screen, how can I reinstall gnome-session? "sudo apt-get install gnome-session" gives me errors that it cant resolve my repository
[14:18] <damno> CH3CHO
[14:18] <XOXO1> how can I add some random working repo?
[14:19] <benzaldehyde> damno: you um got that wrong
[14:19] <ikonia> XOXO1: it can't start the network as you're using gnome-network manager to configure your netowrk, and you're not starting gnome
[14:19] <damno> benzaldehyde: what would it be?
[14:20] <benzaldehyde> damno it is connected to a benzene ring, c6h5cho
[14:20] <XOXO1> oh that
[14:20] <XOXO1> oh that's the problem*
[14:21] <damno> benzaldehyde:  that's ethan-al-dehyde
[14:21] <GreyGhost> hey
[14:22] <jpgrms> grabe dami sumasali dito!
[14:22] <benzaldehyde> damno: what?
[14:22] <GreyGhost> i'm moving files from my linux sdb (ext4) to windows sda (ntfs).. transfer is very slow .. almost 2 MB/s ,.. :(
[14:22] <GreyGhost> any idea?
[14:22] <damno> benzaldehyde: the formula you wrote at the end
[14:23] <subspider> hi
[14:23] <benzaldehyde> damno: i feel like we are playing whose on first, what about it
[14:24] <damno> benzaldehyde: didnt understand what u sair
[14:24] <mredeb> which is better to use - network manager or wicd
[14:24] <benzaldehyde> damno: it is not important.
[14:24] <ohsix> GreyGhost: how full is the ntfs side? it can get like that pretty readily
[14:25] <ohsix> mredeb: considering it comes with n-m, guess
[14:25] <mredeb> it doesnt, bec i had to install it
[14:25] <mredeb> but i think wicd is missing functionality
[14:25] <Pelo> !upgrade
[14:25] <mredeb> so itit more future proo
[14:25] <ohsix> mredeb: at the very least, it gets more attention
[14:25] <GreyGhost> ohsix, 250 GB of 500 free
[14:26] <ohsix> GreyGhost: :\
[14:26] <ohsix> GreyGhost: i never did correlate the slowness
[14:26] <damno> what does trucrypt do?
[14:26] <ohsix> but i defragged the drives in windows & haven't had much trouble since
[14:27] <AntiSociaL> .
[14:27] <ohsix> damno: makes you look cool
[14:27] <damno> :) ohsix: I dont really know
[14:28] <ohsix> damno: encryption & security is more than the software thast does it; the answer to the question as you asked it _is_ "makes you look cool", because people that use it do so for stupid reasons, and can't shut up about it
[14:30] <benzaldehyde> ohsix: the algorithms are the honey, aes is military . i could imagine that might make the paranoid feel pretty good about using it
[14:31] <ohsix> benzaldehyde: no
[14:31] <benzaldehyde> ohsix: no?
[14:31] <damno> ohsix: but ppl talk too much FOR it
[14:32] <ohsix> damno: for "truecrypt" indeed
[14:32] <ohsix> but not for actual data security
[14:32] <damno> did you gys know, google will create their 1st 1gbps network in cansas city?
[14:33] <ohsix> the people with the need to even mention what they're using for their own self satisfaction are no better off than having no encryption at all, because it's not about what software you use
[14:33] <benzaldehyde> damno: are those bits or bytes
[14:33] <ohsix> bits
[14:33] <lolmatic> hi, im looking for a way to sync with google docs. any recommendations?
[14:33] <damno> bits I guess
[14:33] <benzaldehyde> so than an 8th of a gig per second
[14:33] <damno> their was a post in engadget
[14:33] <zikalify> on ubuntu 13.04 release schedule page it says dates for 12.04 LTS and 13.04 LTS, are LTS going to be more frequent?
[14:34] <ohsix> benzaldehyde: not exactly; thats the phy rate
[14:34] <damno> benzaldehyde: and dont ask me...wont be able to calculate the fraction :(
[14:35] <benzaldehyde> 125 megabytes in one second, sweet
[14:35] <ohsix> too bad we've got to deal with disks and operating systems when we've got all this delicious bandwidth
[14:36] <zikalify> anyone know my question?
[14:36] <luckvicky> hi
[14:36] <damno> ohsix:  cant sata handle that speed?
[14:36] <damno> ohsix: and what abt ubuntu?
[14:36] <benzaldehyde> zikalify: LTS is released every fourth release and every 2 years
[14:37] <benzaldehyde> zikalify: the last was 2010 and the next is 12.04 on 2012
[14:37] <zikalify> not according to 13.04 release schedule its not, or is this just a mock up? want link?
[14:37] <GreyGhost> how do i check if a sata disk is on DMA mode or PIO?
[14:38] <ohsix> GreyGhost: look at the boot messages w/dmesg, or ask it with hdparm -i
[14:38] <benzaldehyde> zikalify: if 13.04 is the lts after 12.04 then that means it should be available 2014 and have 4 releases between 12.04 and 13.04
[14:38] <iceroot> if top is showing me 200% cpu for one process, does that mean the prcess is using 2 cores with 100% each? or is it using one core with a load of 2?
[14:38] <ohsix> GreyGhost: i'd be really surprised to see a sata controller prefer pio
[14:38] <benzaldehyde> zikalify: though why they would set this in stone with no one working on it i would not know
[14:38] <jamesklyne> press 1
[14:38] <erUSUL> GreyGhost: dmesg | grep -i ata
[14:39] <jamesklyne> iceroot press 1 while in top
[14:39] <GreyGhost> ohsix, i asked cos last time my hard disk gave some read write error Windows had set the drive up on PIO mode by itself
[14:39] <lescrooge> [hello]
[14:39] <iceroot> jamesklyne: no core is used by 100%
[14:39] <lescrooge> Is it worth attempting to remove 10.04  from alongside Win7 and expecting Win 7 to be accessible or is a complete wipe the disc time.
[14:39] <lescrooge> The cause of the dilemma is the lack of space in the WIn7 partition.
[14:39] <lescrooge> I've looked at the moving and resizing option in Gparted and it does not inspire me with confidence. Much appreciate any help. TVM
[14:39] <GreyGhost> ohsix, erUSUL , thxn
[14:39] <FloodBot3> lescrooge: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:39] <ohsix> GreyGhost: thats a windows thing
[14:40] <iceroot> jamesklyne: as i fact its a wine-appliacation i cant imaging its using more then 1 core
[14:40] <lolmatic> whats a nice app to sync with google docs?
[14:40] <lescrooge> OK TVM
[14:40] <ohsix> lescrooge: fdisk /mbr will replace grub with the windows bootloader, then you can delete ubuntu
[14:41] <ohsix> lescrooge: but resizing is safe enough, you'd need a shrink/move and stable power tho
[14:42] <lolmatic> how can i search the repos for applications on a terminal?
[14:42] <iceroot> also very strange is, my system has a load of 6 (4 cores) from x-processes, if i switch to tty1 i cant even load "man bash" in a good speed (using 2.6.38 with cgroups-patch). if a am correct that patch was exactly for that situation...
[14:42] <atlef> lolmatic: apt-cache search
[14:42] <iceroot> lolmatic: apt-cache search searchstring
[14:42] <samira-t> how should i enable wireless?
[14:43] <lescrooge> to ohsix do I put the fdsik /mbr on run? Q2 By stable power you mean a UPS?
[14:43] <Mahjongg> .
[14:43] <Mahjongg> .
[14:43] <jamesklyne> 2 core with hyperthreading
[14:44] <lolmatic> what does prism actually do? it executes web applications like on a desktop?
[14:44] <benzaldehyde> samira-t: edit your /etc/network/interfaces
[14:44] <Mahjongg> WaltherFI, actually the system sleeps fine after 10 minutes, fails to sleep when lid is closed... how about that?
[14:44] <iceroot> jamesklyne: yes, 2 cores with hyper-threading (intel atom dual core)
[14:44] <xangua> lolmatic: just a fx window with no status/tool/menu bar
[14:44] <benzaldehyde> samira-t: enable? use ifconfig device up
[14:45] <damno> gwrite works wonder for saving webpages via copy-paste
[14:46] <lolmatic> well im looking for a nice application to sync with google docs. i used gladinet on windows but anything for ubuntu would be really nice as i dont want to run it on wine
[14:46] <Mahjongg> arand, actually the system sleeps fine after 10 minutes, fails to sleep when lid is closed... how about that?
[14:47] <arand> Mahjongg: Well... I don't know...
[14:47] <Mahjongg> arand, all right, thanks
[14:47] <n4pst3r> ubuntu es

[14:48] <ohsix> !es
[14:48] <damno> n4pst3r?
[14:48] <Magnusson_TB> is it still problematic/dangerous to write to windows ntfs partitions from linux?
[14:48] <lescrooge> TVM
[14:49] <sasha> i have a cisco valet router. i'm trying to connect it to configure. ip is <IP_ADDRESS> but my browsers dont connect. there's no proxy by the way. what should i do?
[14:49] <norman222> .
[14:49] <damno> is there a way to limit the reply of /names <channel>  ?
[14:49] <damno> is there a way to limit the reply of /list    ?
[14:50] <benzaldehyde> sasha: what is the last line of ip r
[14:50] <ohsix> damno: theres a bot to search channels but i forget its name
[14:50] <ohsix> Magnusson_TB: no
[14:51] <lolmatic> Magnusson_TB: no its pretty safe. if you use ntfs-3g. everything else should be less safe.
[14:51] <benzaldehyde> sasha: mike@ps3:~$ ip r | grep default | awk '{print $3}'
[14:51] <apporc> Hi everyone.
[14:51] <Magnusson_TB> cool deal
[14:51] <benzaldehyde> omit mike@ps3
[14:51] <ohsix> Magnusson_TB: not with ntfs-3g in play anyways; the kernel driver doesn't move as fast but iirc even it added write support that was servicable a few years ago
[14:51] <jamesklyne> anyone know why changing apps > metaciy > general > button_layout wont change the min max and close buttons?
[14:51] <Magnusson_TB> no idea what ntfs -3g is however
[14:51] <apporc> my disk's disklabel is destroyed . i am trying to repair it .any advices?
[14:51] <jamesklyne> using gconf-editor
[14:51] <Magnusson_TB> but good to know :)
[14:51] <sasha> benzaldehyde: default via <IP_ADDRESS> dev eth2  proto static
[14:51] <lolmatic> Magnusson_TB: ntfs-3g --help
[14:52] <damno> how do I see the prev page in irssi?
[14:52] <Magnusson_TB> lolmatic> ah ha
[14:52] <benzaldehyde> sasha: try to punch that into a web browser instead of the 192.
[14:52] <Magnusson_TB> ty
[14:52] <KicksaintNick> Hello
[14:53] <xangua> !controls | jamesklyne
[14:53] <sasha> benzaldehyde: this whole number? <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:53] <ohsix> Magnusson_TB: you need not mess with it if you're using ubuntu; it's handled behid the scenes
[14:53] <jamesklyne> i have 11.04
[14:53] <benzaldehyde> sasha: yes, only the numbers, sorry
[14:53] <sasha> benzaldehyde: i'll try thanks
[14:53] <ohsix> jamesklyne: #ubuntu+1
[14:53] <Magnusson_TB> ohsix> oh yeah i am, it's just been some years since i used linux period so i didn't know if the same dangers still applied
[14:54] <ohsix> Magnusson_TB: those warnings were with respect to the kernel driver thats beenin there some time, ntfs-3g is a relatively recent ocurrence
[14:54] <sasha> benzaldehyde: that didnt work either
[14:55] <jamesklyne> ohsix i know how to do it and did it on my desktop.  laptop is a no go that used the same install :/
[14:55] <benzaldehyde> sasha: you might have to take eth2 down and put eth0 up
[14:55] <samira-t> benzaldehyde: this is the output of than command http://pastebin.com/ZnSwguQF
[14:55] <sasha> benzaldehyde: howto do that?
[14:56] <Mahjongg> arand, WaltherFI, FYI I played with power manager options, changed all individual setting to something else, saved, set them back to what I'd like and now everything seems to work fine.
[14:56] <benzaldehyde> sasha: ifconfig <device> up/down
[14:56] <Mahjongg> arand, WaltherFI, did not need to change the default kernel
[14:56] <arand> Mahjongg: Excellent.
[14:57] <KicksaintNick> exit
[14:59] <damno> how do I change default nick in irssi?
[14:59] <tass> if i take the grub.cfg from a Ubuntu install and just replace it with the one chakra installed (ubuntu has chakra + ubuntu o the grub.cfg) it hsould work just find shouldn't it?
[14:59] <damno> tass: no
[14:59] <soreau> damno: It depends on which client you use
[14:59] <tass> why not?
[15:00] <damno> soreau: irssi
[15:00] <jamesklyne> well closing all the windows was the answer :) dunno what that would do.
[15:00] <erUSUL> tass: grub.cfg is autogenerated and overwritten quite often
[15:00] <soreau> ! irssi
[15:00] <benzaldehyde> sasha: BCM4312 is your device's brand name not how linux refers to it, do ifconfig to see a list of your devices and how linux refers to them
[15:00] <damno> tass: it does not work like that. you will have to run grub-update
[15:00] <soreau> benzaldehyde: lspci*
[15:01] <damno> ! tab
[15:01] <rcconf> Is possible to embed Ubuntu banner countdown into Conky'
[15:01] <rcconf> ?
[15:01] <kailkitsune> hey, i have a problem, i don't know if its with java pr minecraft, but ive un/reinstalled them both and i still get a black screen on load, and ive found nothing that helps in the forums, does 10.10 have something against them?
[15:02] <soreau> kailkitsune: nvidia?
[15:02] <benzaldehyde> sasha: not device, i meant interfaces
[15:02] <ohsix> kailkitsune: are you using a pirated version? you'll need to get the .so for lwgl for linux
[15:02] <patrik> how can i acess the screen manager on ubuntu via the terminal?
[15:02] <kailkitsune> no i payed for it
[15:03] <erUSUL> patrik: gnome-display-properties  ?
[15:03] <patrik> yea
[15:03] <patrik> oh thanks
[15:03] <patrik> :)
[15:03] <damno> ohsix:  does ppl have to use pirated ver. in linux ??
[15:03] <soreau> damno: No
[15:04] <soreau> ohsix: Please dont advocate pirated anything here
[15:04] <asyhar> hei.. im newbie can anyone tell me hw to run compiz on xubuntu 10.04
[15:04] <soreau> asyhar: compiz --replace
[15:04] <damno> nice. it does nt work !  !
[15:04] <ohsix> soreau: i wasn't aware that i was
[15:04] <asyhar> it doesnt wrk at my machine
[15:05] <soreau> ! work | asyhar
[15:05] <ohsix> soreau: that being said; had he paid for it there would be no black screen
[15:05] <Honoo> asyhar: is compiz installed in your machine?
[15:05] <soreau> ohsix: There is a possibility its a problem with the nvidia driver
[15:05] <soreau> But he never said if he has nvidia yet or not
[15:05] <asyhar> yes, it already installed
[15:05] <kailkitsune> .so for lwgl? little help first time on that one
[15:05] <gnewb> I wish to make a persistent install to USB of Lubuntu or a lightweight Ubuntu, are there downloads on Official Site for that or do I make one myself?
[15:06] <kailkitsune> no i have an laptop
[15:06] <soreau> gnewb: Just install to the usb stick as you would a hard drive
[15:06] <kailkitsune> it an inbeded
[15:06] <soreau> kailkitsune: What gpu does it have?
[15:06] <samira-t> benzaldehyde: this is the output of ifconfig command, now what i should do?
[15:06] <sasha> benzaldehyde: when i say ifconfig, it doesnt show me anything about the router
[15:07] <gnewb> soreau: Thank you, does that make it persistent?
[15:07] <soreau> gnewb: Yes, its just like a regular install, only on usb. You will want at least 4GB though
[15:07] <kailkitsune> soreau:let me check
[15:07] <soreau> kailkitsune: lspci|grep VGA
[15:07] <ohsix> gnewb: that distinction is just for the startup disk creator; a full install is just that
[15:07] <samira-t> benzaldehyde: sorry this is link=> http://pastebin.com/ee3GbdZw
[15:09] <bizerklurker> hi ubuntu!
[15:09] <benzaldehyde> sasha: i was just saying when you put the interface up or down don't do the name of your adpater, linux uses special leters to refer to it, for a list do ifconfig. do ip r | grep default | awk '{print $3}'
[15:09] <bizerklurker> newb here
[15:09] <bizerklurker> what's the difference between unity and gnome 3?
[15:09] <gnewb> soreau: Thank you again, I am using an 8g Scandisk Cruzer, that should be enough, I wanted to make one to show others on the fly what a great OS Ubuntu really is.
[15:09] <bizerklurker> and why can't they run tofether?
[15:09] <bizerklurker> together*
[15:09] <sasha> benzaldehyde: it said there was no eth0 interface
[15:09] <benzaldehyde> sasha: do that last bit for the router ip
[15:09] <soreau> bizerklurker: unity is a hacked up version o compiz and gnome3 is gnome-shell which doesnt allow any other (compositing) wm to run
[15:10] <benzaldehyde> sasha: what about ifconfig can you pastbin it
[15:10] <soreau> ! unity
[15:10] <ohsix> gnewb: since suspending to disk on a volume like that is probably impractical; you can cut back on the swap you need
[15:10] <bizerklurker> thanks guys (:
[15:10] <sagi_> hey
[15:11] <samira-t> how should i enable wireless?
[15:11] <sagi_> I have downloaded macubuntu 10.10

[15:12] <sagi_> As there is no taskbar at the bottom
[15:12] <gnewb> I thank you all kindly for the input and assistance, I create a stick now.
[15:12] <sagi_> ohsix, I have disabled the dock.

[15:56] <b3rz3rk3r_> hi guys, im having trouble getting "gtk-redshift" to autostart. it is in the autostart menu and is checked, i have even set the entries as executable just incase that was the problem, but it is still not working. Any ideas?
[15:56] <techbreak> IdleOne: demonspork erUSUL : build-essential is already installed.. any man page for help with commands ?
[15:56] <erUSUL> eamon: i am sure the mythtv wiki/homepage has a list of supported/preffered cards ...
[15:56] <Daghdha> apparently i have started a resync of my raid :/ it's now at 7.8%
[15:56] <demonspork> eamon, HD support with dual tuner isn't going to be much less than $100 no matter which brand.  And even if you find one for less, that is the best and easiest to use though with Ubuntu
[15:56] <erUSUL> techbreak: man gcc
[15:57] <techbreak> erUSUL: ok, thanks :)
[15:57] <DarkAce> Sorry, but my bugs is not for a package it's in general for ubuntu

[15:58] <stupidhead> hi all, i've just installed ubuntu 10.10 on my desktop, and i've just installed nvidia driver and after reboot it has a black screen... can someone help me solve this problem please?
[15:58] <erUSUL> DarkAce: explain a little the bug. we may be able to tell you what package it aplies to
[15:59] <dd214> eamon G2G, I've never used MythTV before.  My HTPC critical requirement is to support Encrypted HD QAM and the ability to stream to extenders.. (ie, Xbox, DMA2100), so I run Windows7 w/ the CETON 4 channel digital cable tuner.  I don't lease any STB or PVRs from my provider, just a $3/mo Digital Tuner Card that goes into the CETON.
[16:00] <eamon> dd214: I don't know what any of that means!
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> eamon: are you using debianor ubuntu?
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> eamon: *debian or
[16:00] <dd214> eamon So far, CETON does not support LNX, there are some other cards coming online this year, but bottom line, if they don't support the HD QAM security, the Digital Cable Tuner cards will not work.
[16:01] <eamon> I haven't got the pc yet ActionParsnip but prolly the new ubuntu
[16:01] <ActionParsnip> eamon: i see, then why ask in #debian
[16:01] <compdoc> hauppauge does make good cards
[16:01] <EliteHunters> I'm have a Franklin Wireless U600 3G/4G USB Modem, is there a solution to run it on Ubuntu 10.10?
[16:01] <eamon> dd214: ah that's ok I only want the freetoair channels
[16:02] <eamon> i'll keep an eye out for those other cards though
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> EliteHunters: run:   lsusb   when it is connected and websearch for the 8 character hex id
[16:02] <dd214> eamon simply put, I want to watch TV in my house, all HD channels I'm paying for and not have to pay the monthly lease for a Set Top Box or Digital Video Recorder.
[16:02] <DarkAce> erUSUL : OK ; It's easy, lauch a dowload with a size more than you harddrive can be stock, and in a terminal lauch command : sudo shutdown -h +... ; and leave your laptop; when you go back to your laptop. he is stop, and if you try to boot, your ubuntu can't open because you harddrive is full.
[16:02] <ohsix> DarkAce: look for hueg files in /var/log brah
[16:03] <stupidhead> hi all, i've just installed ubuntu 10.10 on my desktop, and i've just installed nvidia driver and after reboot it has a black screen... can someone help me solve this problem please?
[16:03] <eamon> dd214: genius
[16:03] <Daghdha> shouldn't there be things in place that stop mortals to fillup your OS drive?
[16:03] <ohsix> DarkAce: nevermind, read that wrong
[16:03] <Daghdha> You running DL as root? :P
[16:04] <ohsix> Daghdha: gdu-volume monitor will report when the drive is below a certain amount of free space
[16:04] <Daghdha> pff :)
[16:04] <erUSUL> DarkAce: well we can fight user errors ... if you do « sudo  rm » with the wrong options the system is destroyed too
[16:05] <erUSUL> DarkAce: anyway ext4 should reserve espace for the superuser ( 5% ) so that problem does not happen
[16:05] <Daghdha> erUSUL: Only super user needs diskspace at start?
[16:06] <erUSUL> Daghdha: is reserved so no user can use it only the superuser
[16:06] <EliteHunters> ActionParsnip, you say websearch for the 8 char hex ID
[16:06] <ActionParsnip> EliteHunters: yes, you'll probably find guides
[16:07] <DarkAce> erUSUL, sorry but i use ext4 :)
[16:07] <Daghdha> yes i understand erUSUL. i'm just not familiar with what stops the boot when HDD is full and wondered if there could be processes in startup that cause boot to fail but don't run as superuser
[16:07] <Andre_Re> hey guys, I need some help with an ecryptfs home partition
[16:08] <Andre_Re> I want to move it onto another HDD
[16:08] <Andre_Re> therefore I duplicated the partition using rsync
[16:08] <erUSUL> DarkAce: really dunno
[16:09] <EliteHunters> ActionParsnip, not really finding any 8 char Hex ID's
[16:09] <Andre_Re> now, if I replace the old UUID in the /etc/fstab with the new one, it doesn't encrypt the file system on startup anymore
[16:09] <lescrooge> As I appear to be on a roll, can anyone help me with locating scanner drivers for the Brother MFC 5440cn that work. The printers drivers are a gem and work fine but the scanner is still holding out on me. TVM
[16:09] <Andre_Re> is there any solution for that?
[16:09] <ohsix> Andre_Re: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory#Recovering%20Your%20Data%20Manually
[16:09] <ohsix> lescrooge: what have you tried to scan with?
[16:10] <DarkAce> erUSUL, but if you think it's normal and not a bug, it's ok, for me, but it's dangerous to have not a small space to boot
[16:10] <lescrooge> the scanner inside the mfc5440 which from memory is an agfa 1229
[16:10] <lidbjork> Does anyone know how to turn off the Alt-Mouse shortcut to move (pan) a window in ubuntu?
[16:10] <erUSUL> DarkAce: check from livecd... mount the partition and see if there is any space left ( reserved )
[16:10] <Andre_Re> ohsix: I don't want to mount it manually
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> EliteHunters: not sure then personally. Have you contacted the manufacturer?
[16:11] <EliteHunters> ActionParsnip, no I haven't done that yet
[16:11] <peekaie> what are my options if the laptop integrated webcam doesn't show up in lspci & lsusb?
[16:11] <ohsix> Andre_Re: bummer, cuz it has all the instructions to do anything you could hope to do on that page, or you could copy the files out to a new instance
[16:12] <Andre_Re> ohsix: what I actually want to know is where to set, which ecryptfs are encrypted on startup
[16:12] <lescrooge> Perhaps I interpreted your response incorrectly. I can't remember the other drivers Ive tried except simple scan
[16:12] <Andre_Re> is there any startupo script with a list?
[16:13] <DarkAce> erUSUL, ok i check :)
[16:13] <DarkAce> erUSUL, just a question, have you tested the livecd for beta Natty, please ?
[16:13] <erUSUL> DarkAce: no; i haven't
[16:14] <rafal> hejaheja
[16:14] <DarkAce> erUSUL, ok, thank you, because when i use impossible to have UNITY (just to see the difference with Gnome)

[16:28] <IanWizard> Hey everyone.  I'm trying to get the old quake4 demo to run on my laptop, but I keep getting an error about texture compression not being available.  Can anybody help me with where to look for this?
[16:28] <oCean> the_gfr|work: you are well aware you should not repeat that quickly, it has been pointed out to you before
[16:29] <THE_GFR|WORK> oCean: thanks for that, do you know how to do what I am asking?
[16:29] <IanWizard> junglejooze: is it people with the same laptop as you, or just in general?
[16:29] <IanWizard> junglejooze: do you have a link?
[16:29] <oCean> the_gfr|work I do, but have not intention at all to help you because of your attitude
[16:29] <erUSUL> IanWizard: you have to get a library for that texturwe compression to work with open source graphic drivers
[16:29] <THE_GFR|WORK> oCean: my attitude? what attitude? I have no attitude whatsoever
[16:30] <induz> do i have to download it?/
[16:30] <THE_GFR|WORK> Its just this channel scrolls really fast so I post again once my question is off my screen
[16:30] <junglejooze> IanWizard: I think I read about someone with an Asus book, I have acer, normally the Acer entries u can choose are working, just recently it isn't anymore
[16:30] <induz> i have k3b, is it possible by that s/w
 how can I switch off vls when opening my directories?
[16:31] <THE_GFR|WORK> oCean: if that seems like spamming/repeating I am sorry
[16:31] <IdleOne> induz: in k3b select to burn iso image
[16:31] <IanWizard> erUSUL: I assumed that it was a lib, but I have no idea which one, and when I search the repos, I can't find anything.
[16:31] <aboynamedblue> ok, but can't paste. Gonna have to type it out, my ubuntu system will not be connected until I get this adapter working. I'm on a windows laptop.
[16:31] <IanWizard> junglejooze: do you have a link to one of the solutions?
[16:31] <junglejooze> IanWizard: One sec please, I try to find something from a moth ago or so
[16:32] <oCean> the_gfr|work: you are very well aware you should not repeat. You have been told before. Just wait 15 minutes before asking again. If anyone is available that knows the answer, they might just help you
[16:33] <erUSUL> IanWizard: well the problem is that the texture compression tech is patented that's why linux distro can not enable it by default
[16:33] <THE_GFR|WORK> oCean: so they can forget my question and then yell at me for repeating even though they don't remember my question except that its the same thing? alright I'll ask and wait for someone to help, maybe you could assist me please?
[16:33] <DavidJonas> When using tar with --exclude=/path  is the path absolute to the system or relative to the folder I am compressing  ex: "tar cvpjf foo.tar.bz2 --exclude=/var/foo/bar /var/foo" or "tar cvpjf foo.tar.bz2 --exclude=/bar /var/foo"
[16:33] <erUSUL> IanWizard: the same happens with mp3 and a lot of other things that's why medibuntu exists

[16:35] <brcorpuz> Hi. How can I fix bad sectors in my HD?
[16:35] <ubuntucitizen> join brussels.be.eu.undernet.org
[16:36] <THE_GFR|WORK> brcorpuz: you can't.  They are physical defects.
[16:36] <IanWizard> ubuntucitizen: fail
[16:36] <IanWizard> erUSUL: ok, thank you :)
[16:36] <junglejooze> IanWizard: now I cannot find anything anymore
[16:36] <THE_GFR|WORK> brcorpuz: replace the drive and get your data off the old drive with Acronis True Image
[16:37] <Pegasus-Rider> Or better yet, with a UNIX tool by the name of "dd".
[16:37] <brcorpuz> THE_GFR|WORK: Thanks, I thought there are some commands I can run in the terminal to somehow fix it.
[16:37] <junglejooze> IanWizard: it was very complicated, with outputs of keys when pressed and released etc..
[16:38] <wildc4rd> afternoon all
[16:38] <IanWizard> junglejooze: I imagine that you're looking at a keymap problem.
[16:38] <erUSUL> IanWizard: http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/S3TC
[16:38] <THE_GFR|WORK> brcorpuz: you can fsck the drive and it can mark off the bad sectors afaik but you can't actually fix them ( mark the sectors as bad and move the data out of them that is )
[16:38] <Pegasus-Rider> brcorpuz, see if tar -cvf Archive_name.tar /path/to/the/mount-point/in/question makes sense to you.
[16:38] <erUSUL> IanWizard: if you use the propietary driver you will have no problem
[16:38] <IanWizard> erUSUL: oh, wow, thanks :D
[16:38] <junglejooze> IanWizard: can you steer me in the right direction?
[16:38] <Pegasus-Rider> Then you can recreate the file system, checking for bad blocks during the process.
[16:38] <aboynamedblue> okay I !pasted the output
[16:39] <junglejooze> IanWizard: Where could I go to try to fix it?

[16:51] <sunny> hi guys
[16:51] <jobbos> hi sunny
[16:52] <IanWizard> junglejooze: worst case, the delete key still doesn't work.
[16:52] <sunny> jobbos i am new to ubuntu

[16:53] <junglejooze> IanWizard: roger
[16:53] <jobbos> Same here sunny lol
[16:53] <IanWizard> junglejooze: or another key starts working as delete :P
[16:53] <hz> hi all
[16:53] <jobbos> Been using Ubuntu 10.10 3 days now
[16:53] <sunny> i want some friends
[16:53] <IanWizard> sunny: make alot of money
[16:54] <ikonia> guys, try #ubuntu-offtopic channel for some chat
[16:54] <junglejooze> IanWizard: Oh, that message was for swang1
[16:54] <ikonia> this channels just for support discussion

[16:54] <junglejooze> IanWizard: sorry I am atm updating the system, it's installing
[16:54] <sunny> i am using it from today
[16:54] <MK`> What program can I use to tell me the key code of a key I press? I have a key on this laptop that was designed to launch a windows application, it does nothing on Ubuntu and I'd like to map it to something else
[16:54] <junglejooze> IanWizard: can I still use the command?
[16:54] <hiexpo> how do i determine the rootand the boot of a usb drive
[16:55] <jobbos> Are you having any problems?
[16:55] <IanWizard> junglejooze: what do you mean?  update-manager is installing stuff, or you're updating the actual os?
[16:55] <jamshoot> Hello. Im using ubuntu 10.10 and need to create liveusb with other os ( winxp and opensuse ). Unetbootin, ubuntu imagewriter, ddrescue, google didnt works for me. So, is there any other way to do live usb ( i cant use cd/dvd)?
[16:55] <hiexpo> jamshoot, are you trying to make a multiboot usb?
[16:55] <jamshoot> nope
[16:56] <hz> guys im trying to resize  a partition using gparted: but it shows a warning yellow triangle saying the partition contains some bad sectors... it suggests to use chkdsk on windows.. i did it and this scan didnt found any problem or damaged cluster
[16:56] <jamshoot> i need atleast 1 os per 1 usb
[16:56] <hiexpo> jamshoot, just a single os
[16:56] <hz> gparted continues to say the partitions have ones
[16:56] <jamshoot> yup, single os
[16:56] <hz> *partition has ones
[16:56] <IanWizard> jamshoot: yeah, unetbootin is pretty much the best (for writing an iso),  If you're trying to write an actual drive image, then IDK what to use for windows.
[16:56] <IanWizard> junglejooze: you there?
[16:56] <hiexpo> jamshoot, what distro you wanting to put on it ?
[16:57] <jamshoot> OpenSuse and/or Windows XP
[16:57] <MK`> hz: look at the SMART data on ubuntu via the disk utility
[16:57] <jamshoot> Unetbootin cant create liveusb for opensuse
[16:57] <hiexpo> jamshoot, you can use unetbootin
[16:58] <hiexpo> jamshoot, yes
[16:58] <junglejooze> IanWizard: Forget it
[16:58] <BluesKaj> hz, if it's a ntfs partition, sometimes defragging will help get rid of the warnings ..I'll probly be corrected for this suggestion , but I have to say that it worked for me.
[16:58] <jamshoot> yes, i can =), but it didnt works. There is some error like cant find gfxboot, when i try to start burned usb
[16:59] <jamshoot> that was for opensuse
[16:59] <jamshoot> for winxp usb error is something like "cant find kernel"
[16:59] <junglejooze> IanWizard: Delete key still not working after the command
[17:00] <IanWizard> junglejooze: I don't know then, if that didn't fix it, then I can't really help.
[17:00] <jamshoot> is there any other software that burning usb's?
[17:00] <Heliodor> Im trying to get Deluge to start headless, but it refuses to start, where can i check the daemon startup logs?
[17:01] <junglejooze> IanWizard: Thanks really for the effort
[17:01] <IanWizard> junglejooze: if you do find a command that works though (and you have to run it each time after you boot) put it in /etc/rc.local
[17:01] <junglejooze> IanWizard:  I try 5 more minutes and give up, these little errors are not worth the trouble
[17:01] <IanWizard> junglejooze: sorry :(   gotta go now though.
[17:01] <IanWizard> erUSUL: thanks for the driver help :)

[17:05] <lovesthethianood> is there anyway to control ones cooling fan via teh CLI? i have not noticed my fan turn on in a long time and im worried it may be busted,can anyone assist me in figureing out a way to determine if its still functinal?
[17:06] <lovesthethianood> laptopfan btw.
[17:06] <candrea> b3rz3rk3r_: could you paste the exact command you have put in autostart?
[17:06] <Sasha> can you see your internal temperature, love?
[17:06] <b3rz3rk3r_> candrea: sure, one sec while i find it
[17:06] <aeon-ltd> lovesthethianood: all laptops spin to max on boot for about 2 seconds if that doesn't happen then there you go
[17:06] <Sasha> one way to do is to run AWN (avant-window-navigator) and turn on temperature meter..and just watch it
[17:06] <Bipul`> hi i have problem in my ubuntu10.10 when i started my  ubuntu i am inside  command prompt that is initramfs idk how to Access graphical mode

[17:07] <lovesthethianood> aeon-ltd: thank you
[17:07] <b3rz3rk3r_> candrea: /home/b3rz3rk3r/.config/autostart gtk-redshift
[17:07] <aeon-ltd> lovesthethianood: if not just stress test it a little by running something intensive like flash video (hd youtube)

[17:08] <candrea> b3rz3rk3r_: you should just use "gtk-redshift" (without the quotes)

[17:09] <sunny> no
[17:09] <blargg> I installed samba, but don't want it running all the time, only at specific times when I enable it via services. I've found it has an /etc/init/smbd.conf file that starts it at boot. What's the proper way to disable this? I tried bum, but it doesn't list it.
[17:09] <candrea> head_victim: a file is created under /etc/sources.list.d
[17:09] <sunny> what is netsplit
[17:09] <head_victim> candrea: not /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[17:09] <sevith> HOla room!
[17:09] <b3rz3rk3r_> candrea: im running kubuntu, the location was under properties of the command
[17:10] <head_victim> candrea: only reason I ask if I've never used anything more complex than a text editor to change repository information so checking what's going on.
[17:10] <b3rz3rk3r_> candrea: its actually just "gtk-redshift"
[17:10] <aeon-ltd> sunny: when a server breaks off from the main channel therefore some users are disconnected
[17:10] <candrea> head_victim: no, the entries are created in a separate file by default
[17:10] <head_victim> candrea: ahhh thanks, makes a whole let more sense now
[17:11] <sevith> root owns all files in my /var/www/*
[17:11] <sevith> should i chown them
[17:11] <sevith> or leave them
[17:11] <sevith> Well somone logged into irc as root ? :/
[17:12] <jamesklyne> stupid empathy does igore those channel mgs either :(
[17:12] <candrea> b3rz3rk3r_: does running gtk-redshift from the terminal work?
[17:12] <b3rz3rk3r_> candrea: it does

[17:16] <SashaShepherd> my partitions are fuxxored i'm afraid
[17:16] <cobas> Sonne: and should /dev/dsp redirect to something like that then?
[17:16] <SashaShepherd> i just can't figure out how to get fdisk -l to tell me what each type of partition is
[17:17] <BluesKaj> SashaShepherd, are trying to save an OS/partition?
[17:17] <b3rz3rk3r_> candrea: here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/592211/
[17:17] <SashaShepherd> blue: i had like 7 partitions
[17:17] <SashaShepherd> i had a very complicated setup
[17:17] <SashaShepherd> i need to resize, because i got a new hard drive
[17:17] <SashaShepherd> my computer boots fine
[17:17] <SashaShepherd> i just can't run gparted/parted
[17:17] <Sonne> cobas, you're not supposed to use /dev/dsp - that's OSS' device file, and it's deprecated
[17:17] <SashaShepherd> only fdisk
[17:17] <SashaShepherd> i deleted extraneous partitions to see if that would help
[17:18] <SashaShepherd> two test linux partitions
[17:18] <b3rz3rk3r_> candrea: im thinking if i change the exec command to include the location data then it might work
[17:18] <b3rz3rk3r_> right?
[17:18] <ralph> Hi guys. I ran fsck for the first time to check for bad sectors, and here's the output: http://pastie.org/1779294. Please help me understand the output.
[17:18] <SashaShepherd> my windows partition (that felt good ;)
[17:18] <mah454> haha ....
[17:18] <blargg> What's the proper way to disable a service that has an entry in /etc/init/? I'd rather not delete it, in case I want to re-enable it later.
[17:18] <cobas> Sonne: hmm, okay, the reason why I'm asking is that I'm trying to get mp3blaster to work, and most of the Ubuntu forums talk about a /dev/dsp or /dev/sound/dsp
[17:18] <mah454> I Use text client base for send message in IRC ... :D
[17:18] <aboynamedblue> erUSUL?
[17:18] <blargg> I just don't want it running at boot
[17:18] <candrea> b3rz3rk3r_: well, if 'gtk-redshift' works in a terminal, the it must work in autostart too
[17:18] <cobas> Sonne: it currently just gives me a "failed to open sound device" when I try to play something
[17:19] <SashaShepherd> now i just have a few partitions - swap as primary, and /, /home/ and my data partition
[17:19] <SashaShepherd> but it still doesn't like it
[17:19] <SashaShepherd> i'm afraid i set my / partition as a primary INSIDE an extended
[17:19] <SashaShepherd> which is wrong
[17:19] <Tatsuya6400> just wanna say i love ubuntu >.>
[17:19] <SashaShepherd> but i don't know how to fix it
[17:19] <SashaShepherd> me too :)
[17:19] <FloodBot3> SashaShepherd: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:19] <SashaShepherd> even when it's giving me a pain in the ass, ubuntu is brilliant
[17:19] <SashaShepherd> sorry :(
[17:19] <sunny> i  installed ubuntu 6 hour ago it didn't show  gparted  anywhere i know it from some sites
[17:19] <candrea> b3rz3rk3r_: I suspect that the cases here are two: either gtk-redshift depends on some other process started by autostart, or it depends on some environment variable that your shell sets automatically
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> sunny:  install it
[17:20] <ralph> Hi guys. I ran fsck for the first time to check for bad sectors, and here's the output: http://pastie.org/1779294. Please help me understand the output.
[17:20] <Sonne> SashaShepherd, what do you mean?
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> ralph: means all is well
[17:20] <BluesKaj> SashaShepherd, I suggest you save your /home and data folders to a USBstick or outboard then redo the partition table and reinstall
[17:20] <SashaShepherd> here is my fdisk
[17:20] <SashaShepherd> http://paste.ubuntu.com/592213/
[17:20] <ocool> hello !! i am getting error while updating "GPG error: http://repos.zend.com server Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 2EAE1437F7D2C623:
[17:20] <SashaShepherd> yeah, i might have to do that :(
[17:20] <sunny> actionparsnip: from where?
[17:21] <LtHummus> is it ever safe to forcibly unlock a package manager? i was installing a package and lost my ssh connection during config
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> sunny: software centre
[17:21] <ralph> ActionParsnip: Thanks! :)
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> LtHummus: its needed sometimes
[17:21] <SashaShepherd> what is the dd command to mirror one partition? is it: dd if="/dev/sda1" of="/dev/sdb1"
[17:21] <SashaShepherd> ?
[17:21] <candrea> b3rz3rk3r_: however, try including the location data as you proposed
[17:21] <ocool> can someone help me?
[17:21] <BluesKaj> SashaShepherd, I'm not clear on what you're trying to accomplish tho
[17:22] <ActionParsnip> ocool: ask and see
[17:22] <SashaShepherd> i can't run gparted.
[17:22] <SashaShepherd> that's my main problem.
[17:22] <aboynamedblue> Hey guys, erUSUL was trying to help me, but must be AFK. I'm pretty new to Ubuntu and I'm having trouble getting my USB wireless dongle to work.
[17:22] <cobas> LtHummus: try dpkg-reconfigure on the package?

[17:23] <SashaShepherd> error: Can't have overlapping partitions.

[17:24] <ocool> what should i do?
[17:24] <BluesKaj> !who | SashaShepherd
[17:24] <ActionParsnip> ocool: run the command I gave. You have added a PPA but have not added the key
[17:25] <SashaShepherd> BluesKaj ubottu sorry, I am kind of new to IRC :(
[17:25] <ocool> sudo apt-key adv?
[17:25] <aboynamedblue> erUSUL: Uhm, yeah, I'm have no idea what any of that page means, I'm pretty new to linux and all of the how-to's seem to assume an already working knowledge of linux. -->Newbie<--
[17:25] <pc02> hola
[17:25] <ocool> i have gave cmd ..but its asking message to write?
[17:26] <SashaShepherd> BluesKaj ubottu the problem is, my data partition is bigger than any external hard drives i have!
[17:26] <aboynamedblue> erUSUL?
[17:26] <candrea> b3rz3rk3r_: according to the manpage of gtk-redshift, I see that you need to set the -l and -t options; I'm wondering why it works with the terminal
[17:26] <pc02> hi
[17:26] <cobas> Sonne: are you still there?
[17:26] <ivancp> my gnome-setting-daemon consumes 100% cpu... maybe is a bug... anyone can help me ?
[17:26] <BluesKaj> SashaShepherd, so you're saying gparted live-cd can't access your partitions , does gparted give any oprions at all ?
[17:27] <xiong> ActionParsnip, thank you for suggestion to restart my machine to urge it to recognize newly installed, vendor-supplied printer driver. That worked, first time.
[17:27] <Jasonn> net.split
[17:27] <BluesKaj> err options
[17:27] <cobas> ack
[17:27] <ActionParsnip> xiong: good times 8-)
[17:27] <cobas> Sonne: are you there?
[17:27] <SashaShepherd> Blueskaj gparted shows only grey area. 320gb (all) 'unallocated'
[17:27] <smatic> hello
[17:27] <SashaShepherd> Blueskaj: with warning, 'Can't have overlapping partitions.'
[17:27] <aboynamedblue> erUSUL: are ya there?
[17:28] <ActionParsnip> ivancp: if you kill it, is it ok
[17:28] <m4v> aboynamedblue: he timedout a while ago :(
[17:28] <aboynamedblue> ah
[17:28] <aboynamedblue> m4v: I thought I saw him rejoin.
[17:29] <Sonne> cobas, yes?
[17:29] <pc02> how can i change my nick?
[17:29] <alexxio_> hi, i have a problem with grub and i want to edit some grub booting lines...but i don't know what is the config file for the newest grub...what is it?
[17:29] <pc02> :(
[17:29] <BluesKaj> SashaShepherd, so if you choose an unallocated partition and try to make it "new" you get that error message ?
[17:29] <Sonne> pc02, /nick [newnick]
[17:29] <SashaShepherd> BluesKaj: no, just that gparted doesn't see any of my existing partitions at all
[17:30] <cobas> Sonne: do you have any idea about how to fix the "Failed to open sound device" problem when I try and play something in mp3blaster?
[17:30] <pc02> sonne i cant :(
[17:31] <Sonne> cobas, why would you use mp3blaster?
[17:31] <SashaShepherd> Blueskaj: hmm...ok, i'm trying to create a new /dev/sda1, and dd /dev/sda4 onto that
[17:31] <BluesKaj> SashaShepherd, how do you know if you don't right click on one unallocated to see your options?
[17:31] <pc02> SONNE help me please
[17:31] <Sonne> pc02, why can't you?
[17:31] <kensama> hi everybody
[17:31] <SashaShepherd> Blueskaj: it will let me create new
[17:31] <sunny> dannybutterman:hello
[17:31] <kensama> i have a problem
[17:31] <SashaShepherd> Blueskaj: but what i need to do is resize..it won't let me do that, because it doesn't see any of my partitions
[17:31] <pc02> i am new here..its my 1 time here :(
[17:31] <aboynamedblue> Can anybody help me get my NetGear wireless adapter usb dongle working?
[17:32] <SashaShepherd> Blueskaj: my only options are 'new' and 'info'
[17:32] <Sonne> pc02, if you want to change your nick, type this: /nick something123
[17:32] <kensama> i've lost my password and the command line for retrieve it seems do not fonction
[17:32] <SashaShepherd> Blueskaj: and info gives the overlapping partitions error
[17:32] <kensama> any idea
[17:32] <kensama> ?
[17:32] <ActionParsnip> aboynamedblue: run:  lsusb   websearch for the 8 character hex id
[17:32] <cobas> pc2, type /nick somenewname into the window you're chatting in.
[17:32] <Sonne> kensama, what command line to retreive it?
[17:32] <ActionParsnip> kensama: hold shift at boot, select recovery mode then select root
[17:32] <BluesKaj> SashaShepherd, what fs are these partitions?
[17:32] <ActionParsnip> kensama: you can now run:  passwd foo      change 'foo' to your username
[17:33] <kensama> this http://www.astucesinternet.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=39
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> kensama: reboot by running:  reboot     and boot as normal
[17:33] <SashaShepherd> BluesKaj: ext3
[17:33] <pc02> sonne yes..i am doing..but   /nick JUSTIN....its working
[17:33] <SashaShepherd> BluesKaj: all ext3 except for swap
[17:33] <aboynamedblue> ActionParsnip: Yeah, I was already directed the way, but every how-to or help page assumes you're already pretty darn familiar with manipulating linux: I'm not.
[17:33] <pc02> is not working
[17:33] <Sonne> pc02, there's already a justin online
[17:33] <Sonne> try choosing another one
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> aboynamedblue: you can type: lsusb in a terminal, then copy and paste it to a websearch, it's not hard
[17:34] <candrea> kensama: are you trying to reset the password of your Ubuntu user or of your FreeNode account?
[17:34] <kensama> @ActionParsnip i dont talk about Ubuntu sorry but about IRC
[17:34] <pc02> sonne....i cant see any justin
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> aboynamedblue: from what I recall, those things 9 times of 10 need ndisgtk + windows wrapper
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> kensama: you should have made that clear, ask in #freenode
[17:34] <candrea> kensama: you'll find more help if ask for help in #freenode
[17:34] <aboynamedblue> ActionParsnip: Yeah, I already did that, the pages I found all written in linux Greek.
[17:34] <kensama> oki
[17:35] <Sonne> cobas, still there?
[17:35] <cobas> Sonne: yeah
[17:35] <JUSTIN1> sonne thanks u so much
[17:35] <Sonne> JUSTIN1, np
[17:35] <cobas> still have no clue how to do this without some kind of oss emulation
[17:35] <JUSTIN1> sonne this chat i from ???? wich country?
[17:35] <Sonne> cobas, why do you want to use mp3blaster?
[17:35] <cobas> it's the best console based mp3 player I know of
[17:35] <SashaShepherd> Tatuya6400! Albuquerque, what's up!
[17:35] <cobas> ncurses based player
[17:35] <ruan> cobas: have you tried moc?
[17:36] <Sonne> cobas, it doesn't seem to support anything else than OSS though
[17:36] <ruan> !info moc
[17:36] <Sonne> 20091009 SVN doesn't look quite new either...
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> aboynamedblue: use a wired connection and get fully updated and install ndisgtk  then grab the windows driver and use the ndisgtk app to install the driver
[17:36] <Sonne> JUSTIN1, this chat is Ubuntu's official technical support, it's not really made for social talk
[17:36] <JUSTIN1> sonne this chat is from wich country??
[17:36] <Sonne> !offtopic | JUSTIN1
[17:36] <cobas> hmm, lemme grab moc
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> Sonne: could use vlc-nox
[17:37] <aboynamedblue> ActionParsnip: ok, let me try that, thanks.
[17:37] <JUSTIN1> sonne ok
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> cobas: vlc-nox maybe
[17:37] <ruan> !info vlc-nox
[17:37] <Sonne> ActionParsnip, does it have an UI? might as well just throw an mplayer otherwise
[17:37] <ruan> hmm looks nice
[17:37] <SashaShepherd> BluesKaj: oh well..thanks for the help..i guess i will try later
[17:38] <SashaShepherd> bye bye everyone
[17:38] <ernest_> buenas
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> Sonne: it uses a terminal interface, which I guessed was desired
[17:38] <naty> ?
[17:38] <ruan> how do i run vlc-nox?
[17:38] <shakir> when Im using update menager its come out : Faild to donwload repository information Check your internet connection
[17:38] <Sonne> ActionParsnip, you mean an ncurses UI?
[17:38] <JUSTIN1> #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:39] <Sonne> or just "can be launched without X"
[17:39] <naty> gente como funciona isso?
[17:39] <Sonne> JUSTIN1, try typing this: /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:39] <Sonne> !es | naty
[17:39] <cobas> basically, I have a headless box hooked to some speakers, and I want a good way to play stuff from it, there's vlc's http interface, but I find it really not user friendly, whereas mp3blaster has quite a nice interface with playlists and shuffle, sort, etc
[17:39] <ruan> moc has all that
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> Sonne: can't remember, it may be curses based
[17:39] <naty> ok
[17:39] <ruan> i've tried moc and it has shuffle, repeat, playlists, file browser
[17:39] <Sonne> cobas, you could use vnc :)
[17:40] <ruan> headless sonne
[17:40] <cobas> yeah, that's what I do at the moment, but seems a bit of a heavyweight solution ;)
[17:40] <ruan> hmm
[17:40] <cobas> I was just going to go with a screened mp3blaster session
[17:40] <Sonne> ruan, headless means without monitor, that doesn't imply not being able to run vnc :)
[17:40] <prprabhu>  /msg NickServ identify prasad
[17:40] <ruan> ok.
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> cobas: I use ssh with X forwarding, the sound comes out of the server but the gui shows on the local system
[17:40] <jamesklyne> x11vnc runs good for me
[17:41] <Sonne> ActionParsnip, that would shut off as soon as he logs out
[17:41] <jamesklyne> -forever
[17:41] <cobas> it's a neat little box, I actually have KVM over IP with it, on top of VLC
[17:41] <Sonne> cobas, you look like someone who isn't afraid to get his hands dirty. have you ever heard of xpra?
[17:41] <ActionParsnip> Sonne: I guess, I also use the http interface for vlc and connect to it using my phone to control it, android rocks :)
[17:42] <ruan> moc(p) is good
[17:42] <ocool> please tell me how to uninstall zend
[17:42] <cobas> I've just fired up mocp... what's volume control on this...
[17:42] <cobas> Sonne: what's xpra?
[17:42] <Sonne> cobas, X11 proxy
[17:42] <ruan> hold on, i'll check the man
[17:42] <Sonne> you can launch apps onto a headless machine and have them connecting to your own X server
[17:43] <cobas> interesting...
[17:43] <swatto> #!/bin/bash
[17:43] <swatto>  sleep 10 ; xchat --minimize=2
[17:43] <swatto>  /home/swatto/TS3Server/ts3server start
[17:43] <swatto> anyone know why that second line does not load at startup please?
[17:43] <swatto> works if i type it on its own in terminal but not through the script
[17:44] <BluesKaj> ruan, cvlc in the terminal  ?
[17:44] <ruan> cobas: so far i see you can launch moc with -v %   checking for hotkeys
[17:44] <ruan> where % is the volume percentage
