[17:11] <Rehnquist> i'm wondering if there's any other drivers for broadcom in linux?
[17:12] <splashtop> Rehnquist hmm. not sure there, did you try looking on broadcoms website?
[17:12] <destroth> we used putty in windows
[17:12] <jpds> MichealH: With a Windows client like Putty? Yes.
[17:12] <destroth> i know that works
[17:12] <abhijit> !broadcom | Rehnquist
[17:12] <MichealH> Thanks jpds& others
[17:12]  * splashtop hugs ubottu
[17:12] <bleah> guys how can i create a multiple bootable pendrive ?
[17:12] <destroth> putty ssh is pretty easy to use point and click, and it works in linux as well.
[17:13] <Rehnquist> i have this: bcmwl-kernel-source
[17:13] <abhijit> bleah, as per my logic it will work. just make two partitions using gpated and install linux there
[17:13] <stomp_stompclap> Hi, i'm new to ubuntu
[17:13] <abhijit> !welcome | stomp_stompclap
[17:14] <stomp_stompclap> cool thanks
[17:15] <Rehnquist> but thanks guys, i'll try extracting the firmware!
[17:15] <bleah> abhijit:  i want to make a bootable pendrive and i want to put ubuntu , lubuntu , mint i want to choose one for instalation if some of my friends want to install ubuntu or anotherone
[17:16] <abhijit> bleah, size of pen drive?
[17:16] <bleah> 8 gb
[17:16] <abhijit> bleah, it should work. you just give it a try.
[17:17] <abhijit> bleah, are you use netbootin to write os
[17:17] <bleah> write os
[17:17] <abhijit> bleah, yes.
[17:19] <bleah> ok , thx i will try whit usb-creator
[17:22] <architecture> omg you guys in here are clone crazy
[17:22] <MasterRoot> mods: is there an off topic ubuntu room?
[17:23] <ZykoticK9> !ot | MasterRoot
[17:24] <abhijit> bleah, if possible come back and tell me about it. if I am not here then just drop me a memo. :)
[17:25] <bleah> ok :)
[17:25] <MasterRoot> ZykoticK9: that's the one, thanks!
[17:25] <stukad> somone managed to play any fps games in ubuntu without lag (jerky mouse, screen) ?
[17:26] <ZykoticK9> stukad, yes.  What gfx card are you using?
[17:26] <stukad> ZykoticK9, GTX280
[17:26] <ZykoticK9> stukad, is that ATI?
[17:26] <stukad> nvidia
[17:27] <wfamy> is there an upstat gourou to help me launching an interactive python dialog scrip under upstart before any-dm loggin
[17:27] <aot2002> anyone know what would cause a X lockup?
[17:27] <ZykoticK9> stukad, i have no issues with my Nvidia 8800 playing most games.  What FPS are you playing?  Wine or native?
[17:28] <stukad> ZykoticK9, quakelive native / cs1.6 in wine
[17:29] <stukad> ZykoticK9, got the same jerkyness lags in both games
[17:29] <stockhunter> would anyone like to help me with burning a data dvd?
[17:29] <ZykoticK9> stukad, QuakeLive worked very well for me.  I haven't tried CS.
[17:29] <stukad> ZykoticK9, what drivers are you using?
[17:29] <ZykoticK9> stukad, current (195)
[17:29] <stukad> same here :/
[17:29] <dr34mc0d3r> im on ubuntu 10.04 - how can i tell what video card is installed?
[17:30] <ZykoticK9> dr34mc0d3r, "lspci | grep -i vga"
[17:30] <stockhunter> woops, wrong room
[17:30] <bleah> abhijit: http://liveusb.info/dotclear/
[17:30] <stukad> ZykoticK9, any custom settings done in the "nvidia x server settings" ?
 - no easy way for nubies?
[17:30] <splashtop> dr34mc0d3r you could click system prefs hardware, and see what driver its using. thats quick
[17:32] <ZykoticK9> stukad, yes and no - you might want to try disabling "sync to vblank" but it may create tearing in videos (FYI there is one setting in Nvidia Settings and one in Compiz for sync)
[17:32] <guest> video problem here.   display works flawlessly until the screen gets blanked by either {screen saver, user logout, switch tty's, or xorg reset} at which point there is on GUI until full reboot of the machine, anyone know anything about this?
[17:32] <duffydack> I wish ATI drivers would fix tearing once and for all...
[17:33] <stukad> ZykoticK9, sync to vblank is off, i dont use compiz :/
[17:33] <muzer> Is there a good tutorial for setting up a repo? I've googled around and the only ones I've found either rely on programs that I can't find in the Ubuntu repo, or gave me a mysterious error when I tried to use them
[17:33] <guest> using vesa driver ^
[17:33] <duffydack> vsync in CCC and vsync in compiz settings enabled and still tearing.
[17:33] <splashtop> duffydack lock sync to refresh is only way
[17:33] <ZykoticK9> stukad, sorry no other suggestions for ya.  good luck man.
[17:33] <stukad> ZykoticK9, thanx anyway :)
[17:34] <Gornjak> guest, my screen got blank after screensaver aswell, the user login was still there it just wasn't visible so i just typed my password in and that worked.
[17:34] <duffydack> splashtop, what?
[17:34] <econdudeawesome> Howdy! What is a good mount point for my OS partition?
[17:34] <splashtop> duffydack enable vsync to eliminate sheer and tear
[17:34] <econdudeawesome> "/"?
[17:34] <duffydack> splashtop, I already said I have..  2 of them
[17:34] <muzer> econdudeawesome, if you're going to be booting from it, / is a good plan
[17:34] <muzer> lol
[17:34] <pedro_> hi
[17:34] <econdudeawesome> muzer my plan is to dual boot two OS's--mount point should be the same?
[17:35] <guest> Gornjak: yeah the gui is still there but can't be seen,   and logging back in doesn't change it,   still, long time no see
[17:35] <duffydack> free radeon driver is fine, but blows for performance.
[17:35] <econdudeawesome> muzer ubuntu is being install secondso I can use GRUB2
[17:35] <muzer> econdudeawesome, the OS you're not booting from should have a different mountpoint
[17:35] <subspider> hi
[17:35] <Sary> Hello Ubuntu ;)
[17:35] <guest> Gornjak: at least i know it's not just me   ;/
[17:35] <econdudeawesome> muzer does it matter which I choose? Should I create a new "folder" for the mountpoint?
[17:35] <froschi> and again: hey peoples: on an older ubuntu i had a sound mixer (somewhere at the loudspeaker icon/right click), where i could set 'subwoofer volume' or the like and some other attributes for the external usb speakers... now in 10.4 i don't find anything to control it. suggesteions?
[17:36] <subspider> i can read cd or dvds why??
[17:36] <muzer> econdudeawesome, if you're going through the installer, it should be created automatically
[17:36] <muzer> econdudeawesome, I would put it in /media somewhere (like /media/other_os or something), but it honestly doesn't matter
[17:36] <aot2002> i cloned my drive using rsync and reinstalled grub, the computer boots fine but when GDM comes up it locks up ...no keyboard or mouse... But the old drive works fine no problems... the filesystem is the same so im trying to figure out why it's giving me problems, where should i start looking to get this resolved?
[17:36] <naxil> some people can help me with a !alert dev/uu-iid"
[17:36] <guest> froschi: terminal command; alsamixer
[17:37] <econdudeawesome> muzer well, here goes
[17:37] <destroth> Is there a binary translator I can use to translate the packets in wireshark?
[17:37] <Gornjak> guest, yeah, do you have to login before you can get to your desktop? If so, I've changed settings in screensaver not to lock the screen when it goes to screensaver. And since then the screen comes back just fine. Maybe this could work for you aswell.
[17:37] <froschi> guest: yeah, just tried that... nevertheless, i had some gtk thing or so on the koala
[17:37] <froschi> or was ist jaunty?
[17:38] <muzer> hmm - there really should be an Ubuntu wiki tutorial on setting up a repo. Not everyone is going to want to use PPAs...
[17:39] <abhijit> bleah, that page is not in english. and btw you had success in making that?
[17:39] <dementorementor> hy  i make apgrade to 10.4 and now i have no border in all my windows what to do ,in the upgrade proces has bean some errors
[17:39] <guest> froschi: ummm i moved from dapper to lucid   so can't say about the in between years.  sorry
[17:39] <bleah> u can choose other language for translation
[17:39] <bleah> u have option on the page
[17:40] <abhijit> bleah, ok. I wll read it later just give me a link again
[17:40] <duffydack> if this FB 'virus' my friend tells me of exists, could it really shut down my system, from the browser?  I dont see how
[17:40] <bleah> http://liveusb.info/dotclear/index.php?category/Installation
[17:40] <abhijit> bleah, thanks :)
[17:41] <Gambino> VB will allow me to run two OS safely?
[17:41] <Legend_Xeon> i can't solve this puzzle. Help me out
[17:41] <Legend_Xeon> http://i.imgur.com/kMiMB.jpg
[17:41] <econdudeawesome> Gambino yes--one is host the other is guest
[17:41] <destroth> VB like visual basics?
[17:41] <destroth> or Vbox?
[17:41] <guest> Gornjak: the thing is,   it's not the screensaver that is the real agravation,  there is no way to switch users except a hard reboot, and this is a four user machine...   screensavers can all be set to "off" and the logged in user is fine,  but the next user has to reboot before they can see anything at all.
[17:41] <econdudeawesome> Gambino I run windows XP and try out other linux distros in Vbox
[17:42] <econdudeawesome> Gambino it runs on top of Ubuntu
[17:42] <econdudeawesome> Gambino in my setup--but Vbox can be used with other systems too
[17:42] <Gambino> And if I have security issues in WinXP, there is no risk in cross contamination running VB with Ubuntu?
[17:42] <econdudeawesome> Gambino unless you share drives
[17:42] <econdudeawesome> Gambino as in, set up a shared file where things can be written
[17:42] <guest> thus i need a patch/work_around/hack  that will fix this
[17:43] <Gambino> econdudeawesome, Thanks, I'm going to give it a shot.
[17:43] <econdudeawesome> Gambino if the two systems are set up to run mutually exclusive, no problem. I've never had cross contamination
[17:43] <econdudeawesome> be back soon
[17:43] <Legend_Xeon> there are some critical vulnerabilties:- http://secunia.com/advisories/26890/

[17:44] <shiv_> where can I find good bunch of nautilus scripts. I can find some here and there. Is there a place with good collection

[17:45] <cesar_> hi roommates
[17:45] <guest> anyone have a clue for me ???
[17:46] <Scunizi> I get an error when restarting my network interface (wired)... "Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0"  ... yet ifconfig shows my card as eth0???
[17:47] <octavio-rdz> hi room, does any one know a good program to save passwords? .... I want to have a relation with host  and password
[17:48] <yunife> octavio-rdz, nano ?
[17:49] <guest> yunife: i think he meant, secure
[17:49] <cornwallis> anyone know how to have a whole desktop with x11 forwarding via ssh?
[17:49] <guest> plain text isn't secure
[17:49] <octavio-rdz> nano, the text editor? O_o is there anything more user friendly
[17:49] <theclaw> hi
[17:49] <Scunizi> cornwallis: google ssh & vnc
[17:50] <octavio-rdz> guest: yes something more secure is would be good
[17:50] <octavio-rdz> secure would*
[17:50] <guest> secure is, as secure would
[17:50] <WaltzingAlong> cornwallis: ssh -X, -Y, -A  ?
[17:51] <Scunizi> octavio-rdz: tomboy notes, basket notes.. or a text file that you encrypt
[17:51] <guest> octavio-rdz: kwallet would be my suggestion,  but that's a kde app
[17:51] <cornwallis> i was hoping to have it in its own window. i was running ssh -X user@host then i would run gnome-session
[17:52] <cornwallis> but i see that vncing localhost would work too
[17:52] <guest> my X is broke
[17:52] <octavio-rdz> guest: and is there anything like that but in gnome?
[17:52] <WaltzingAlong> cornwallis: then look into freenx
[17:52] <guest> octavio-rdz: i'm sure there is,  i don't know the name though
[17:53] <waseem> Hi All, I am facing issues with the Brightness Keys on ubuntu 10.04, There is no notification as well, please help!!   I am using Dell Inspiron N4010
[17:53] <Alexzor> hi everyone, was just wondering if it is possible to sync jailbroken and unlocked iphones in ubuntu?

[17:53] <shpngld> Hello everybody! im new to xubuntu and would want some help. How to find and configure the screen resolution parameters
[17:54] <waseem> can anyone help me configuring the brightness keys please!!
[17:54] <dementorementor> hy  i make apgrade to 10.4 and now i have no border in all my windows what to do ,in the upgrade proces has bean some errors
[17:54] <guest> shpngld: xrandr
[17:54] <octavio-rdz> guest: ok going to look for options for kwallet in gnome
[17:54] <neocortex> hello all, please, help with pretty stupid thing of trying to copy my whole /home folder to usb hdd. I tried with cp -fr ..., and with cp -a ..., and then even with tar cvpjf. I did that as a root. With cp I could not copy all files, while with tar some files appeared to be too big. HELP!
[17:54] <shpngld>  guest how to use/start it?
[17:55] <WaltzingAlong> neocortex: could also try rsync
[17:55] <guest> neocortex: cp -a
[17:55] <waseem> need help!!
[17:55] <krysis_> waseem whats the problem?
[17:55] <dludldin> hi everybody
[17:56] <waseem> i m not able to use the brightness keys
[17:56] <waseem> in ubuntu 10.04
[17:56] <krysis_> can you change the brightness via gnome panel applet?
[17:56] <gmspromo> x
[17:56] <IdleOne> !backup > neocortex
[17:56] <waseem> i dont know how to do that
[17:56] <thewolf> Ok... I was on here yesterday asking how to put videos on an iPod (nano 5th gen) and someone suggested banshee.... well... it is supposed to be able to put videos on an iPod... but mine is to new to work with it... :(
[17:56] <guest> my gui is broken !
[17:57] <waseem> i m new to ubuntu
[17:57] <krysis_> ok, first off right click on the top panel, then go to "add to panel..." waseem, then find the brightness applet and double click it to add to the panel
[17:57] <frxstrem> I have set up XChat to start when I log in to my Ubuntu user; the only problem is that it starts too soon, and that the XChat icon isn't shown in the panel. Is there a way to delay the starting of this program by, say, 10 seconds?
[17:57] <gartral> waseem: are you new to linux in general?
[17:57] <octavio-rdz> neocortex: you could try rdiff-backup
[17:57] <krysis_> frxstrem, you'll need to make a small script to start it in delay mode
[17:57] <shpngld> guest I ran it and it says the possible resolutions. everytime i restart the pc the resolution is highest possible but for me itr is uncomfortable.
[17:58] <frxstrem> krysis_: ok, thanks :)
[17:58] <waseem> yes, m new to lunix@ gartral
[17:58] <krysis_> you know how frx?
[17:58] <shpngld> gueest ...so i have to change it manually every time...
[17:58] <Alexzor> is there any particular reason it says the 64 bit install is not for daily desktop use?
[17:58] <frxstrem> krysis_: yes
[17:58] <guest> shpngld: xrandr can not only display settings but also adjust/change them
[17:58] <krysis_> ok just make sure u have #!/bin/bash as the first line
[17:58] <krysis_> then use "sleep 10" on the next line
[17:59] <krysis_> and make executable then just select through startup apps
[17:59] <shpngld> guest how to do it?
[17:59] <[4-tea-2]> Howdy. Trying to install lucid on a notebook, after the installation is completed, I have no video (no X, no tty). Any ideas how to proceed - is there a magical grub cmd line parameter that would give me some safe VGA graphics so I could find out what's wrong?
[17:59] <guest> man xrandr shpngld
[17:59] <waseem> @krysis, I added the brightness applet, it is set to minimum & when I click on it it doesn't let me change the level of brightness!!
[17:59] <guest> shpngld: example near the bottom
[17:59] <shpngld> guest Im checking now
[17:59] <krysis_> waseem, it looks to be a problem with compatibility =(
[18:00] <krysis_> waseem, as far as this goes it won't be easy to get it working, your best bet is to keep updating ubuntu and hoping an update fixes it
[18:00] <waseem> might be, when I scroll the mouse over is, it say Cannot get laptop brightness
[18:00] <krysis_> waseem, also you can go to ubuntuforums.org and post your problem there so that the WHOLE community can take a look at it and add it as a fix in the ubuntu updates when its found
[18:01] <krysis_> waseem,  yes it is definately incompatibility
[18:01] <dementor> i realy  need help how to reupgrade to 10.4 becouse i make an upgrade but whit errors
[18:01] <krysis_> whats your laptop model waseem?
[18:01] <jbrady> Can anyone help with a Creative X-Fi Driver's problem I'm having in 10.4?
[18:01] <guest> [4-tea-2]: ummm try left_alt+right_dirrection  or  alt+f1  to see if there is tty's just hidden, or no.
[18:01] <krysis_> dementor, you'll need to burn yourself a new 10.04 CD and install it directly, lots of times updates don't go very smoothly..
[18:01] <krysis_> dementor, you have split partition install?
[18:02] <dementor> no i use lvm
[18:02] <[4-tea-2]> guest: I tried that, incl ctrl+alt+f1 (f2, f3...)
[18:02] <krysis_> lvm?
[18:02] <guest> [4-tea-2]: one of my installs went like that too.    the tty's were active  just hard to accesss
[18:02] <dementor> becouse is  server
[18:02] <cablop> better now...
[18:02] <krysis_> ah ic
[18:02] <[4-tea-2]> guest: I suspect the kernel switches to fb gfx and then all is lost.
[18:02] <guest> [4-tea-2]: the new splash scheem is a bad joke  imo
[18:02] <jbrady> I read that X-fi drivers are supposed to be built into ALSA in Koadic... It looks to me like the driver is installed, but I hear no sound.
[18:03] <Paca-Vaca> Hi anybody know, where is "aliases" file in ubuntu 10.04 ?
[18:03] <[4-tea-2]> guest: removing splash and quiet from the grub command line didn't help either.
[18:03] <cablop> well, iḿ looking for an alternative to WinSCP, i need to be able to synchronize remote ftp folders with local copies, but just to sync changes, not all, not mirror, to sync goes further
[18:03] <whileimhere231> Hi. Is there a way to fully remove Pulseaudio and go back to whatever was working before. I think that was ALSA?
[18:03] <guest> [4-tea-2]: not all,    alt+sysRQ+r and try it.   "resets to xlate keyboard mode"
[18:03] <Muelli> cablop: rsync
[18:03] <greezmunkey> jbrady: have you checked alsa mixer to be sure the sliders are maxed?
[18:03] <dementor> krysis_ can i re upgrade ??
[18:03] <krysis_> well you should consider using a split partition install just for updates that go wrong, check out this video: http://www.youtube.com/user/CJay554#p/u/21/Xb_854AIMRg dementor
[18:03] <Muelli> Paca-Vaca: what is that file supposed to do?
[18:03] <dludldin> is anybody using 10.10?
[18:03] <guest> [4-tea-2]: yeah the splash screen is part of upstart or something stuppid like that....    i hate it.
[18:03] <cablop> Muelli... mmm never used it, itś command line so iḿ afraid to mess something
[18:03] <jbrady> I'm brand new to Ubuntu... but I have a volume key on my keyboard... I see the volume slider appear on the desktop and go up and down.
[18:04] <krysis_> u can't reupgarde dementor once its there its there
[18:04] <jbrady> where would I find the alsa mixer?
[18:04] <cablop> is there any gui alternative to sync a remote ftp folder with its local copy?
[18:04] <krysis_> there is no way to "roll back" changes for an upgrade
[18:04] <[4-tea-2]> guest: no change, still no tty after ctrl+alt+f1
[18:04] <jbrady> system -> preferences -> sound?
[18:04] <greezmunkey> jbrady: in a terminal execute alsamixer (I believe)
[18:04] <Muelli> cablop: there are GUIs for rsync
[18:04] <Alexzor> in my windows 7 install i have an OS partition and a DATA partition, is it possible to install ubuntu onto just the data installation so I have both windows and linux on the same machine without loosing my current windows installation?
[18:04] <dementor> i have no border on my all windows  theast de plb
[18:05] <cablop> ah nice, Muelli ! what is its name?
[18:05] <[4-tea-2]> Is there a kernel option to disable the framebuffer?
[18:05] <Muelli> Alexzor: hm. That is the default behaviour of wubi IIRC.
[18:05] <jbrady> executed... all are at max except for master which is at half, and is what my volume control affects...so that's not it.
[18:05] <krysis_> dementor, to fix the border
[18:05] <guest> [4-tea-2]: ok.  then you can add init=/bin/bash  to the grub line and try that.   warning you'll have to manually mount/unmount the root fs
[18:05] <krysis_> dementor, press alt+f
[18:05] <krysis_> alt+f2
[18:05] <waseem> @krysis, tell u what, the installation I am running on the machine right now, was downloaded from the Dell website, some user had posted there a Ubuntu 10.04 tailored fro Dell laptops. I was facing wireless issues on the installations which I downloaded from ubuntu.com. Now this Dell tailored ubuntu has  got Netbook Editions as well, including 2D. The .iso files that I downloaded from ubuntu.com did show notifications when I pressed
[18:05] <subspider> how do i mount my cd drive please???
[18:05] <krysis_> then type in "metacity --replace"
[18:05] <Gambino> I get a boot medium fatal error when attempting to run XP from VB. Any advice?
[18:05] <[4-tea-2]> guest: been there, didn't help either. No /bin/bash in the initrd. ;)
[18:05] <waseem> Can u suggest me the best location, I m in India
[18:06] <Alexzor> Muelli: i was under the impression that didnt install ubuntu, it just ran it inside the existing windows environment, I want to be able to choose which OS to boot to
[18:06] <jbrady> greezmunkey, you still there?
[18:06] <Muelli> cablop: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=rsync+gui
[18:06] <[4-tea-2]> guest: init complained about being killed, kernel panicked. Which was kinda unexpected.
[18:06] <greezmunkey> jbrady: yes, checking something else..
[18:06] <Muelli> Alexzor: hm. That is the default behaviour of wubi IIRC.
[18:06] <guest> [4-tea-2]: so your system is not finding the install fs
[18:06] <cablop> i wanted to say thanks Muelli but you killed that intention
[18:06] <greezmunkey> jbrady: Is your stuff usb, like usb speakers?
[18:06] <krysis_> waseem if you give me your laptop model i can maybe find out a forum that may have the fix
[18:06] <dementor> krysis_ theat works:*
[18:07] <[4-tea-2]> guest: so I need to add a boot= parameter when trying init=/bin/bash, huh?
[18:07] <Paca-Vaca> When configurating crond daemon, it's send mail to root. On aliases file that may configure
[18:07] <krysis_> good =) is that the only problem for the upgrade dementor ?
[18:07] <waseem> its Inspiron N4010
[18:07] <[4-tea-2]> guest: make that a "root="
[18:07] <jbrady> No.. It's a Creative X-fi Elite Pro
[18:07] <Muelli> Paca-Vaca: don't query me unless it's important.
[18:07] <dementor> no
[18:07] <guest> [4-tea-2]: ummm no you need to have the rootfs mounted via real device   {my guess}   something like root=/dev/sda5
[18:08] <jbrady> The drivers are supposed to be built into ALSA in Koadic Karma... I just installed 10.4
[18:08] <dludldin> life is short to understand linux (kubuntu ubuntu xubuntu edubuntu mandriva debian) i am confused
[18:08] <krysis_> ok good =) enjoy dementor
[18:08] <[4-tea-2]> guest: I'll try.
[18:08] <krysis_> waseem, for the brightness, so your saying it worked fine with Dell's Ubuntu but not the original ubuntu.com CD?
[18:08] <Muelli> Paca-Vaca: /etc/aliases is a postfix file IIRC. But if you only want cron to send the mail to a different address, write<EMAIL_ADDRESS>in your crontab
[18:08] <Alexzor> Muelli: forgive me, but does Wubi run ubuntu inide the current WIndows session? or does it create the instal on the DATA partition?
[18:08] <dludldin> every time i turn my computer i get a surprise
[18:08] <Muelli> Paca-Vaca: man crond
[18:08] <guest> my xorg is still broken      someone that knows something help me
[18:09] <Muelli> Paca-Vaca: "When executing commands,  any  output  is       mailed  to the owner of the crontab (or to the user named in the MAILTO        environment variable in the crontab, if such exists). "
[18:09] <jbrady> I downloaded the open source drivers from Creative directly...and found a step by step guide to installing them here:  http://www.fusetext.com/2009/05/ubuntu-linux-creative-sound-blaster-x-fi-driver-installation-how-to/  ... followed guide.  When I entered the "make" command it popped up with some missing file errors.
[18:09] <[4-tea-2]> guest: suprise, no /bin/bash, but Ubuntu kicked me into a busybox. That should be good enough to fix the video problem, thanks.
[18:09] <cablop> Alexzor: Wubi creates a disk image for ubuntu, but runs as a diferent OS
[18:09] <WaltzingAlong> !wubi | Alexzor, you would reboot out of windows but the file holding ubuntu is hosted on a windows partition
[18:09] <guest> [4-tea-2]: the video problem is that the rootfs is not mounted
[18:09] <greezmunkey> jbrady: I had an issue similar, and loaded pulseaudio manager from the repos, I found a setting there that made sound work for me. You can open up your Synaptic package manager and search for it.
[18:10] <jbrady> what does pulseaudio do?
[18:10]  * Muelli wonders if that'll work:
[18:10] <Muelli> !man crond
[18:10] <waseem> krysis, on Dell's ubuntu it doesnt work & on original ubuntu it showed a notification, but it didnt go down any further than 2 steps
[18:10] <dludldin> maybe its my hardware s fault
[18:10] <Muelli> no
[18:10] <guest> my video problem on the other hand is that ubuntu is a peace of junk OS
[18:10] <daftykins> Alexzor: wubi creates an image file on top of the windows NTFS volume and makes it contain the ubuntu install
[18:10] <Paca-Vaca> Thanks
[18:10] <[4-tea-2]> guest: no.
[18:11] <guest> [4-tea-2]: ?   /bin/bash  not existant and the rootfs is mounted ???
[18:11] <krysis_> waseem, i'll look into your problem for you, but since you being a new user i'd like to introduce you to my channel to learn how to use Ubuntu: http://www.youtube.com/user/CJay554#p/c/CC32EDDC038F6AB2   While you do that i'll go ahead and try and find a solution for you, is that ok?
[18:11] <[4-tea-2]> guest: the system boots fine, I can even hear the Gnome start sound. The filesystem is mounted fine (with exception of now, because I fumbled)
[18:11] <[4-tea-2]> guest: I gave the wrong partition to root=
[18:12] <dgbaley27> Hello. I'm trying to install to a multi-boot system. I already have a boot partition and grub set up. How can I make sure the ubuntu alternate installer puts ONLY the kernel images onto /boot?
[18:12] <waseem> krysis oh why not, thanks for your help
[18:12] <guest> [4-tea-2]: so your origenal problem is the same as mine.   xorg is trash ?
[18:12] <jbrady> greezmunkey:  checked synaptic.... pulseaudio 1:0.9.22 is installed.  libpulse0 also installed.  libpulse-browse0, pulseaudio-utils, libpulse-mainloop-glib0 all installed already...
[18:12] <[4-tea-2]> guest: I still think it's the kernel framebuffer that fscks it up.
[18:12] <juand> hi
[18:13] <greezmunkey> jbrady: I could be wrong here, but it seems that pulseaudio *is* the sound system.
[18:13] <jbrady> Do you mean "paman" ...which has description "PulseAudio Manager" ?
[18:13] <cablop> the reality is humans are smarter than google, but some humans forgot that and thing that google can replace a nice advise and an expert suggestion
[18:13] <Cool_C> question: the things (applets) in my panel gets moved around in different places at each login, can anything be done to fix this, or is it just gnome that sucks in yet another way?
[18:13] <cablop> *think
[18:13] <greezmunkey> jbrady: I'll get the package name for you, brb
[18:13] <jbrady> thanks several times.
[18:13] <[4-tea-2]> guest: ...because even if I try to boot into a mode that doesn't use X, I still get blank video a few seconds into booting.
[18:13] <dludldin> i made an upgrade to 10.10 and i got a low resolution warning at start
[18:14] <wiesshund> humans are smarter but google remembers more
[18:14] <dludldin> yesterday 9.10 lost access to windows
[18:14] <qdb> hello. during installation of ptoftpd "ftp" user is created in addition to "proftpd" user. for what if "ftp" user? "proftpd" - to run proftpd.
[18:14] <greezmunkey> jbrady: it is called "paman" here.
[18:14] <[4-tea-2]> guest: I think the kernel option I was looking for was "nofb". I'll try that now.
[18:14] <qdb> hello. during installation of proftpd "ftp" user is created in addition to "proftpd" user. for what is "ftp" user? "proftpd" - to run proftpd.
[18:14] <dludldin> 10.04 has a slow internet issue
[18:14] <cablop> but google don answer questions... so google < human experience... except if the "expert" has no experience
[18:15] <greezmunkey> jbrady: it's pretty cool, gives you extra controls. I found on this system that a field needed to be ticked to get my usb headset to work. I have no sound card on this box.
[18:15] <greezmunkey> jbrady: It may just help you as well!
[18:16] <cablop> damn... how can i make the us-intl keyboard to work like the standard one? this thing keeps eating my 't all the time
[18:16] <jbrady> for **********'s sake.....
[18:16] <dludldin> there are 1500 guys with problems here imgoing to take a look to windows channel
[18:16] <wiesshund> cablop,  get a fatter thumb?
[18:17] <hspaans> dludldin: describe slow
[18:17] <jbrady> My soundcard has a big tall external unit with headphone jacks and lots of other things... my headphones were plugged into it.  Apparently the linux driver doesn't support the external unit.  Moving my headphones to the jack on the back of the sound card itself, suddenly sound.
[18:17] <wiesshund> dludldin,  i dotn think any of us quite understood your question?
[18:17] <dludldin> 378 guys in windows and 1502 in ubuntu
[18:17] <storm__zen> ?
[18:17] <krysis_> alright waseem you there?
[18:17] <cablop> no itś not a fatter thumb... it's the us-intl keyboard allow to put special characetrs, but when you type ' followed by t then it just ignopre the thing instead of writing both characters
[18:17] <cablop> ' is a deadkey in us-intl layout
[18:18] <jbrady> ...thank you again for trying to help, anyway.  Hopefully if someone else has this problem, I'll be able to help them at some point.  I've been working on this for 2+ hours.
[18:18] <wiesshund> cablop, ah, wierd.  can you just use the normal KB setting?
[18:18] <storm__zen> I just upgraded to 10.4 LTS and the Scrabble flash / java app doesn't work in Facebook.  Anyone know what this is?
[18:18] <greezmunkey> jbrady: sounds like you may want to send Creative an email...
[18:18] <waseem> krysis, yes m here....thanks for ur help, i was looking at your channel
[18:18] <krysis_> ok cool, i need to get some hardware info of your computer, you feel comfortable with the terminal? its mostly just copy and paste
[18:19] <jbrady> I doubt it would do much.  The Linux drivers were released in 2006... the windows 7 drivers a month ago.
[18:19] <dludldin> i guess it is not my problem i think it s ubuntu s
[18:19] <cmayo> hi, i'm on mac osx and i want to get on my friend's ubuntu machine. what vnc server do they need?
[18:19] <cablop> wiesshund: no i can't cause my language is spanish, i programm, sometimes need to write a few chinese and it's better to stick with one layout than trying to remember too many :(
[18:19] <waseem> ya m ok with it
[18:19] <wiesshund> cablop,  ah ok, understood
[18:19] <jbrady> Anyway, thanks.  I'm fine with having sound.
[18:19] <dludldin> butt dont get mewrong i like ubuntu s software
[18:20] <krysis_> ok go ahead and open a terminal from "applications > accessories > terminal" then copy and paste "sudo apt-get install discover"
[18:20] <krysis_> enter your password and let that install
[18:20] <wiesshund> dludldin,  we dont even understand what your question is as it spanned 3 or 4 lines nearly pages of chat apart.

[18:25] <storm__zen> wiesshund: I think that it's the latest.  I remember looking at the flash site and I think the version was the latest..
[18:25] <krysis_> Arjon is a troll
[18:25] <wiesshund> good god man 1 line per paragraph not 1 per word

[18:26] <storm__zen> wiesshund: "You have version 10,1,53,64 installed"
[18:26] <Arjon> i am new here
[18:27] <krysis_> cmayo, if your looking for desktop remote control might i suggest teamviewer? its much easier to manage than VNC
[18:27] <wiesshund> storm__zen,   hmm that sounds correct
[18:27] <storm__zen> wiesshund: Does FB chat work for you?
[18:27] <storm__zen> .. not chat... Scrabble.
[18:27] <waseem> krysis shall i paste u the output in pm, coz i think there is some problem, its not getting installed
[18:27] <wiesshund> storm__zen,  does other flash stuff work? youtube etc?

[18:27] <IdleOne> Arjon: I suggest you read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines and http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/  those links will explain what type of behavior is acceptable in Ubuntu irc channels
[18:27] <Arjon> i want to find my USB folder in backtrack but i can't! Can you help me?
[18:28] <waseem> thanks
[18:28] <wiesshund> storm__zen,  i dont have facebook myself.
[18:28] <uRock> Arjon this isn't the support IRC for Back|Track
[18:28] <garry> how to install gnome-shell in ubuntu 10.04
[18:28] <IdleOne> Arjon: backtrack is NOT supported in this channel please type /join #backtrack-linux
[18:28] <storm__zen> wiesshund: Ok...   That's the same kind of symptom that I'm seeing.
[18:28] <IdleOne> krysis_: drop the caps pleasde :)
[18:28] <dludldin> ok lets see if anyone has a solution for this problem... i have my power supply out of the tower and the cale got loose with time...yesterday using 9.10 i touched the cable and power got down. when i restarted ubuntu i couldnt get access to locals (my computer,files etc) via windowed mode. i had to install crusader to save my files (i had to forget a 750mb file cause transfering was incredible slow)
[18:28] <krysis_> IdleOne, it seems thats the only way he'll pay attention :/
[18:29] <wiesshund> storm so nothing in youtube works at all?
[18:29] <storm__zen> wiesshund: I was thinking it was some kind of permissions issue, or maybe something didn't get soft-linked right.
[18:29] <IdleOne> krysis_: We still have to follow the rules.
[18:29] <storm__zen> wiesshund: That's a youtube link.  Send me one that I can test.  I'm not sure what you are asking for.
[18:29] <wiesshund> I think Arjon died :) i cna only hope
[18:29] <krysis_> IdleOne, i know, but at least someone can kick him for not following it himself...
[18:29] <BigC_> When I search for usplash in synaptic, and I go to install it, it ask to basiclly remove everything. Is this a bug?
[18:30]  * uRock says "Kick'em!" but that is why I am not in power.
[18:30] <krysis_> wiesshund, me too, i hate trolls
[18:30] <wiesshund> storm just asking that nothing at all in youtube works, but yes i can play that
[18:30] <storm__zen> wiesshund: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2l2mvTryVZs  also doesn't work... perhaps that's a good thing for me..
[18:30] <IdleOne> krysis_: kicking is a last resort. we offer help or redirect to proper channel. ops are watching
[18:30] <uRock> IdleOne, I understand
[18:30] <storm__zen> wiesshund: I wonder if it's a restricted software thing?
[18:31] <abhijit> BigC_, may be they are overlapping. i am not finding exact word i mean e.g. software1 is installed only if software2 is not installed like that
[18:31] <storm__zen> wiesshund: How do you install restricted in 10.4 LTS?
[18:31] <wiesshund> storm__zen,  sounds like flash didnt install or setup correctly. have you tried to remove it, and then reinstall it?
[18:31] <storm__zen> wiesshund: Nope.  Haven't tried that yet.
[18:31] <abhijit> !restricted | storm__zen
[18:32] <wiesshund> storm__zen,  nothing related to flash should be "restricted software"  not 100% sure what you mean by restricted though
[18:32] <sam__> any 1 know  why i cant enable my effects like wobble screen?
[18:33] <monkey_dust> !compiz| sam__
[18:33] <wiesshund> storm__zen,  ah nm non royalty free etc.   but no i can play the vids etc
[18:33] <storm__zen> wiesshund: Ok... removing and reinstalling didn't do the trick.

[18:43] <wiesshund> storm__zen,  i think apt-getting it doesnt kind of let FF know it has it or something
[18:43] <monkey_dust> tnx IdleOne, i was looking that, too
[18:43] <garry> idle one what this do can i have ur email id

[18:44] <garry> idleone done
[18:45] <storm__zen> wiesshund: Not too many versions ago, that didn't work at all for *nix.
[18:45] <IdleOne> garry: no errors?
[18:45] <garry> no
[18:45] <IdleOne> garry: now do sudo apt-get install gnome-shell
[18:45] <garry> kk
[18:46] <storm__zen> wiesshund: It's awesome that it at least works through the browser though. :D  I'll take it.
[18:46] <monkey_dust> ClayG, in Terminal yo can type uptime
[18:47] <IdleOne> monkey_dust: uptime will give the computers uptime not uptime of connection to isp
[18:47] <IMJ> hi
[18:47] <ClayG> monkey_dust, and that tells me internet uptime>?
[18:48] <IdleOne> ClayG: no it wont
[18:48] <IdleOne> ClayG: it will give uptime of the pc
[18:48] <AlexMax> Hi, I want to know how much bandwidth a server is using, is there a standard command for measuring per-process bandwidth?
[18:48] <monkey_dust> idd ClayG it just says how long the pc has been up
[18:48] <ClayG> IdleOne, ok, is there an application or way to tell how often my internet goes down, maybe something that sends pings to a known good site and recocrds the times they do not return?
[18:48] <wiesshund> ClayG,  System Monitor?  system-> admin-> system monitor
[18:49] <IdleOne> ClayG: I don't know of any but that doesn't mean they don't exist.you can try searching in Synaptic Package Manager
[18:49] <IMJ> can some one help me get 3d running so that i can have fluid 3d animation for compiz
[18:49] <ClayG> IdleOne, I'll give that a shot
[18:49] <hspaans> ClayG: try "mtr"
[18:50] <k0d3g3ar> ne1 got any URL recommendations to good Gwibber themes (mako compatible)?
[18:50] <ClayG> hspaans, got it running, looks pretty good, wiesshund also got sys monitor up thanks for the suggestion as well
[18:50] <IdleOne> !ot | k0d3g3ar
[18:51] <ClayG> wiesshund, sys monitor appears to monitor bandwidth though
[18:51] <sebsebseb> Hi
[18:51] <IMJ> hi
[18:51] <sebsebseb> IMJ: hi
[18:51] <wiesshund> ClayG,  yea shows traffic input / output
[18:51] <IMJ> can u help me with my issue
[18:52] <IMJ> its graphics relarted
[18:52] <IMJ> related
[18:52] <sebsebseb> IMJ: maybe
[18:52] <ClayG> wiesshund, I need something that will tell me over the last 24 hours how often and for how long the internet was not available
[18:52] <sebsebseb> IMJ: I just joined so
[18:52] <IMJ> i got a ATI radeon X1650 AGP based card
[18:52] <sebsebseb> !details \ IMJ
[18:52] <sebsebseb> !details | IMJ
[18:52] <hspaans> ClayG: check your router for issues
[18:52] <IMJ> a problem with 3d acceleration
[18:53] <wiesshund> ClayG,  for that you'd need to see if there is something available for linux like pingplotter, to monitor your internet over time
[18:53] <IMJ> not getting full fluid animations and effect with my ATI x1650 GPU AGP based
[18:53] <sebsebseb> IMJ: of course probably got to install propritary driver for that
[18:53] <wiesshund> ClayG,  unfortunately i dont know a linux app off hand, someone else may though
[18:53] <sharplinux> ClayG: you can just leave ping running in a terminal
[18:53] <IMJ> wish i could do that
[18:53] <ClayG> hspaans, I'll check that is actually a good idea I think there might be something liek that there, wiesshund that sounds exactly what i....what now?
[18:53] <IMJ> but my card is under legacy support
[18:53] <ClayG> wiesshund, oh i see pingplotter does not work for nix? is it windows?
[18:53] <sebsebseb> IMJ: I think its more for Nivida, but anything under system > administration > hardware drivers ?
[18:53] <bobthebuilder> any terminal based utility that convert youtube vid to mp3 ?
[18:53] <IMJ> as per ATI support policy
[18:54] <wiesshund> ClayG,  i think its windows only but you could run it in wine perhaps
[18:54] <crow_> hello
[18:54] <ClayG> sharplinux, and when i come back in 24 hours how will i know what percent it was down?
[18:54] <IMJ> sebs > nope no drivers
[18:54] <ClayG> wiesshund, sounds good, im going to try to grab it now
[18:54] <sebsebseb> !ati | IMJ
[18:54] <sharplinux> ClayG: when  you stop ping, it provides stats
[18:55] <wiesshund> IMJ an ATI card should show itself using proprietary drivers in the hardware panel
[18:55] <crow_> I am new to Ubuntu..odd question..wondering if there is software that can draw 2-d floor plans to show floor layouts..been searching with no luck
[18:55] <IMJ> it doesnt
[18:55] <usacomputertec> I upgraded my system just so I could use OpenShot video editor. I really like it except for the fact that I can't preview the sound.
[18:55] <ClayG> sharplinux, is there a switch or something for that? when i ping yahoo for instance if the internet is not up it will time out and then drop me to the command line again
[18:55] <dludldin> so...freshly installed ubuntu comes with gnome shell and it is possible to "upgrade" the environment to kde or compiz?
[18:55] <IMJ> i am not sure which driver i am using anyways
[18:55] <sharplinux> ClayG: do 'man ping' in a terminal - you'll get some good info
[18:55] <sebsebseb> dludldin: no
[18:55] <ClayG> sharplinux, i am a nublit though in nix so im sure there are thousands of things im overlooking
[18:55] <philinux> crow_: yes there is. Cant remember the name. I think it's in the repos
[18:56] <usacomputertec> Can anyone tell me how to get OpenShot to play audio.
[18:56] <sebsebseb> dludldin: no Gnome Shell in Ubuntu by default, and not eveven 10.10 wil be using that, you can however install it yourself, older version in repo,  ppa for later
[18:56] <sharplinux> ClayG: ping should not time out by default
[18:56] <ClayG> sharplinux, yeah ill try that as a last resort , im not intelligent enough to understand the wording of man's but it's a good suggestion if all else fails
[18:56] <IMJ> i am using the LTS version of Ubuntu
[18:56] <sebsebseb> IMJ: ok 10.04?
[18:56] <IMJ> latest edition
[18:56] <ninjamaster> sudo ? are you root ? running what release?
[18:56] <HiddenKnowledge> Hello, I have a external HD formatted as ntfs. After a bad shutdown, ubuntu doesn't find the HD. Windows finds it perfectly though. How do I fix this?
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> dludldin: you can install kde-core   and get KDE
[18:56] <IMJ> YUP
[18:57] <IMJ> yup
[18:57] <sebsebseb> IMJ: a previous version of Ubuntu such as 8.04, would probably be better with your card, but maybe not.  Thats the previous LTS, still supported on desktop untill the end of April next year.
[18:57] <IMJ> true
[18:57] <hspaans> HiddenKnowledge: start gnome-terminal, put the drive in and see with "dmesg | tail" what is going wrong
[18:57] <IMJ> i have just come from Opensuse
[18:57] <IMJ> 11.3
[18:57] <sebsebseb> IMJ: ok what was OpenSuse like with the card?
[18:57] <crow_> philinux: thanks, I will continue to search
whats the default environment name?
[18:58] <HiddenKnowledge> Ok, hspaans, will do.
[18:58] <greezmunkey> *Q* I have a system with dmraid, and lvm installed. It has three 500gb hdds, and it seems that one of the drives has a problem. Can someone point me to a good troubleshooting guide?
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> dludldin: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> dludldin: how do you mean ?
[18:59] <hspaans> greezmunkey: describe problem
forget it.what is the diference between the kde core and ubuntu core?
[18:59] <Enox> Can someone help me install the sun-java6-jre  ?  I'm really screwed because I installed a open source version and ubuntu packages keep referencing the sun one, now nothing new will install without it.
[18:59] <ActionParsnip> dludldin: ubuntu core is just ubuntu without a DE or WM
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> dludldin: kde-core will give you a desktop environment
[19:00] <Enox> I'm using 10.04, universe repository is enabled.. And it can't find the package.
[19:00] <trism> Enox: sun-java is in the partner repo
[19:00] <trism> !partner | Enox
[19:00] <H__> Enox: I used sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-fonts
[19:01] <Enox> H__ - Sure, and that's what all the documentation says to do.
[19:01] <H__> Enox: and trism's remark ?
[19:01] <ActionParsnip> Enox: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-install-sun-java-runtime-environment-jre-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx.html
[19:01] <Enox> Package sun-java6-jre is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[19:01] <neocortex> Hello again! I just tried rsync, but had no luck with it to copy my home folder to usb hdd. Previously, I tried cp -fr and cp-a and even tar cvpjf. No luck! Please, help! Either some files are not allowed to be copied or are too big for tar.
[19:01] <HiddenKnowledge> hspaans: Was that supposed to fix the problem? Because it did.
[19:02] <greezmunkey> hspaans: I installed dmraid onto the system I described, I went through all the steps to install lvm, and then installed Ubuntu server. All went well. It updated fine, and I shut it down (properly) and restarted cold twice to be sure all was good. My partner took the machine, and told me that drive three does not seem to operate as he didn't see and led activity on that drive.
[19:02] <IdleOne> Enox: enable the partner repos in Software Sources then the sun packages will be available
[19:02] <hspaans> Enox: which package do you try to install?
[19:02] <gavriel> crow | see qcad sagcad and blender
unfortunately right know i cant research the web right know but thaks for the tip
[19:02] <H__> Enox: what doyou have now ?    sudo update-java-alternatives -l
[19:02] <philinux> crow_: there's qcad in the repo
[19:02] <ActionParsnip> dludldin: no worries dude
[19:02] <HiddenKnowledge> Thanks, hspaans. :D
[19:02] <sharplinux> neocortex: what was the specific command you used?
[19:02] <hspaans> HiddenKnowledge: No, mostlikely the fs was broken and windows fixed it when you plugged in
[19:03] <philinux> crow_: Remembered it. http://www.sweethome3d.com/index.jsp
[19:03] <greezmunkey> hspaans: I haven't had to t/shoot a lvm enabled system to date, and need to be sure of the steps, that's all!
[19:03] <H__> neocortex: too big ? how much data are we talking about ?
[19:03] <neocortex> I went to root in console and did (from /home folder): cp -a <mydir>/ /media/usb_hdd/
[19:03] <hspaans> greezmunkey: you have a three way mirror?
[19:03] <sharplinux> neocortex: you mentioned rsync?
[19:04] <greezmunkey> hspaans: dmraid, set as raid 5
[19:04] <neocortex> Yes, rsync -a <target> <destination>
[19:04] <Enox> That worked!  Thank you.  The documentation for this seemed to state the "Universe" reposity should hold sun JRE, I guess that changed??
[19:04] <IdleOne> neocortex: install grsync , GUI for rsync that is simple to use
[19:04] <dementor> hy againe how do i configure my mouse and keyboard in 10.4 from console
[19:04] <IdleOne> neocortex: sudo apt-get install grsync
[19:04] <sharplinux> neocortex: was there an error?
[19:04] <hspaans> greezmunkey: you're booting of a raid5? btw see with "cat /proc/mdstat"
[19:05] <neocortex> H__, it is about 8GB, it is VirtualBox
[19:05] <cjae> so the only way to bulk encode is through use of a script
[19:05] <H__> neocortex: that should be just fine with tar, and rsync, and cp. Something else is wrong, anything in syslog ?
[19:05] <froschi> whoah. now i got a very different prblem. i have a keyboard with a broken 'return' key... <enter> on the numpad is fine... this works ok in regular use, shell, editing, etc... only in 'less' in the shell when searching with '/', i cannot 'enter' the query.... what can i change (except for the keyboard?) (it gives /ESCOM there, when i 'enter' following '/', which is strange since the hardware vendor 'escom' doesn't exist for 10++ years here in germany)
[19:06] <neocortex> sharplinux, yes: too big file and some are not allowed to be copied.  My issue is that I'm not quite sure where to start, check if it's a lvm issue, or a dmraid issue, which to do first, etc.
[19:09] <dementor> hy againe how do i configure my mouse and keyboard in 10.4 from console
[19:10] <sharplinux> neocortex: if not, ext3 would be ideal
[19:10] <neocortex> sharplinux, Yes, I would prefer that, although I use Linux only and VirutalBox Win XP for some compatibility with my colleagues
[19:10] <storm__zen> I'm currently 'trying' out 10.4... it's passed all of my 'tests' ... I have a system that has an LVM, and I don't see a way to use the installer to set up the LVM.  Am I missing something?
[19:10] <hspaans> greezmunkey: I'm not touching any machine with / on software raid5, sorry
[19:11] <neocortex> sharplinux, Can I exclude whole .VirtualBox folder?
[19:12] <ChrisBuchholz> Hey, I have installed Ubuntu 10.04 on my MacBook, and was wondering if there were some "easy" way of getting the keyboard mapped correctly - is it is on OS X? As it is now, i have no way of making @ and dollar sign and so on.
[19:12] <sharplinux> neocortex: it *looks like* the rsync option would be --exclude='.VirtualBox' if you wanted to (see man rsync
[19:12] <hspaans> neocortex: see the --include-globbing-filelist option for rsync
[19:12] <H__> neocortex: with rsync add --exclude='.VirtualBox'
[19:13] <greezmunkey> hspaans: ok, from a best practices point of view then, it seems that if you are going to raid anything it would purely be a data partition then?
[19:13] <sharplinux> heh
[19:13] <wiesshund> ok like 98 degrees out, im goin in the pool, back later
[19:14] <kernel_geek> You know when you change a song in rhythmbox or get a message in piding? What is the name if that box that comes up ? on thr  thr right of the screen... I want to adjust its settings.
[19:14] <joe____> ChrisBuchholz-> I remember klaatu has a whole segment awhile back on 'the bad apples'
[19:14] <neocortex> sharplinux, H__, THANKS A LOT! So, I should do: rsync -a --exclude=.VirtualBox? rsync is better than cp?
[19:14] <H__> neocortex: i prefer rsync in these situations as it can skip parts already done
[19:15] <sharplinux> neocortex: that should work - yes, rsync is better (designed for what you're doing), and you're welcome
[19:15] <hspaans> greezmunkey: buy a fourth disk and make it raid1+0
[19:15] <neocortex> sharplinux, THANKS!
[19:15] <trism> kernel_geek: the program is notify-osd, and it really has not settings to adjust (unless you recompile it)
[19:16] <greezmunkey> hspaans: ok, thanks -ikonia as well - it actually helped just to type it out! I think I will rebuild it as you suggest hspaans :)
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> neocortex: theres alos grsync which is a gui for rsync, it also shows you the command it will execute
[19:17] <kernel_geek> trism: I would like to adjust its position, it is currently displaying off my screen
[19:18] <eugene_> HELLO!
[19:19]  * kernel_geek runs away from eugene_'s low voice
[19:19] <hspaans> greezmunkey: np, sometimes the answers aren't the ones one want to hear, but honest answers are better
[19:19] <kernel_geek> *loud

[19:26] <eugene_> i thought ultimate edition was made by ubuntu..
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> erkan^: its a bloated Ubuntu based distro, it's not supported here and is offtopic
[19:26] <joe____> do i just try to ssh to it and it works? cause thats not the luck i've been having. is there a wiki or site that i can't find to point me in the right dirrection?

[19:27] <dominicdinada> need a hand with my samba. After i updated 2 days ago samba no longer works and i assume it has something with grub remapping the hard drives... http://pastebin.com/k2yKZgV3
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> erkan^: use software centre is all I can suggest
[19:28] <H__> joe____: that's basically it yes. You might want to check out ssh-agent and pass-phrases if you want to increase security and ease of login. Check the openssh.org website for primers.
[19:28] <erkan^> ActionParsnip,

[19:31] <sharplinux> erkan^: what program are you trying to install?  is it from the repositories or something you downloaded from the web?

[19:39] <thewolf> vigge_sWe: I had some problems with my wiFi om both Windows and Ubontu... to enable it in ubuntu right click the wifi/network symbol
[19:39] <sharplinux> erkan^: looks like you can download the package through your browser and install it, then try installing lekhonee-gnome again
[19:39] <Neko> aha .bash_aliases would be better
[19:39] <timemachine3030> hspaans, thank you!
[19:39] <Neko> thx erUSUL
[19:39] <erkan^> thank you sharplinux
[19:39] <vigge_sWe> ty I'll try that

[19:39] <erUSUL> Neko: that too ;P
[19:40] <kernel_geek> Are there any programs like handbrake for ubunut already in the repos ?
[19:40] <erkan^> sharplinux, a site for http://packages.debian.org/sid/python-gtkhtml2 said : unaviable :S
[19:40] <Neko> erUSUL, I read .bashrc and it includes it.. but I would never have thought of it otherwise :D
[19:40] <erUSUL> !info handbrake
[19:40] <timemachine3030> yup renaming ~/.config/google-chrome to ~/.config/google-chrome.bak fixed me up. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
[19:40] <kernel_geek> erUSUL: thanks I already knew that.
[19:41] <thewolf> kernel_geek: I know you can use get deb to get handbrak... but I thnk there are some like it yes
[19:41] <kernel_geek> erUSUL: "Are there any programs *like* handbrake for ubunut already in the repos ?"

[19:41] <Kwpolska> shall be none?
[19:41] <dominicdinada> need a hand with my samba. After i updated 2 days ago samba no longer works and i assume it has something with grub remapping the hard drives... http://pastebin.com/k2yKZgV3
[19:41] <sharplinux> erkan^: try here: http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/python-gtkhtml2
[19:41] <Kwpolska> if not, try your windoze pass
[19:41] <erUSUL> kernel_geek: chill out dude
[19:42] <ActionParsnip> sander__: you will need a password set for the account you are using
[19:42] <sharplinux> erkan^: that was posted to the bug thread several months ago
[19:42] <Scunizi> sander__: samba keeps track of it's own guests.. you have to add them and their password
[19:42] <kernel_geek> erUSUL: im calm :D

[19:42] <ActionParsnip> kernel_geek: http://mergy.org/2010/05/installrun-handbrake-on-ubuntu-lucid-lynx/
[19:42] <erUSUL> kernel_geek: vlc can encode too.
[19:43] <erkan^> i see. but how add I this in PPA. I have Lucid Main sha
[19:43] <craigbass1976> Why does thunderbird use a different printer than anything else?  The Brother MFC that I installed doens't show up for thunderbird
[19:43] <thewolf> kernel_geek: what eaxctly do yo want to do?
[19:43] <ActionParsnip> sander__: i believe to mount samba you need a password, you can store the password in any OS so its only needed once
[19:43] <erkan^> sharplinux,
[19:44] <sharplinux> erkan^: why PPA?
[19:44] <dominicdinada> Does anybody actually even use seamonkey or is it useless bloated software binded to ubuntu
[19:44] <sander__> ActionParsnip, On my old machine.. I had an passwordless guest account.
[19:44] <Scunizi> sander__: good luck.. my smb.conf on 9.10 worked fine unti I upgrade with errors then did a fresh install *and* reconfigured samba again... same smb.conf.. now I only have access with password & username.. still working on it.
[19:44] <ActionParsnip> sander__: then set it up the same
[19:44] <sharplinux> erkan^: if you can install that dependency, it should work via the standard repositories
[19:44] <ActionParsnip> sander__: the password isnt that offensive
[19:44] <Oer> seamonkey s the keyring, everybody uses it, dominicdinada
[19:45] <storm__zen> Ok, I installed lvm2, then ran the install, but the install doesn't see the LVs.  Did I miss a step?   ( To install 10.4 on a system with LVs. )
[19:45] <BPOH> Всем привет
[19:45] <dominicdinada> seamonkey internet suite
[19:45] <dominicdinada> :O
[19:45] <erkan^> how, sharplinux ?
[19:46] <Oer> ah my mistake, seahorse is the keyring
[19:46] <Kwpolska> storm__zen: you need alternate cd
[19:46] <BPOH> есть хоть одна славянская рожа?
[19:46] <thewolf> Someone please tell me that 10.10 or future update will work on adding content to iPods...
[19:46] <dominicdinada> so just purge it ?
[19:46] <storm__zen> Kwpolska: Ok.  I'll give that a shot.  Thanks.
[19:46] <dominicdinada> Oer: just purge it then ?
[19:46] <daedalus96> i am trying to boot the live dvd for 10.10, but it won't load, i can get into the grub command line, does anyone now how i can get from there?
[19:46] <sharplinux> erkan^: at the bottom of the page at http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/python-gtkhtml2 - you will see "Download python-gtkhtml2"
[19:47] <daedalus96> i am trying to boot the live dvd for 10.10, but it won't load, i can get into the grub command line, does anyone now how i can get from there?
[19:47] <Scunizi> daedalus96: /join #ubuntu+1
[19:47] <Kwpolska> daedalus96: don't flood, plz
[19:47] <Kwpolska> and go to #ubuntu+1
[19:47] <Oer> dominicdinada, if you don't need it, you can remove+purge
[19:47] <sharplinux> erkan^: click on your computer's architecture and it will take you to a page with mirrors - click on a mirror near you and it will download the package
[19:47] <Kwpolska> if the mirror will be dead, use another one.
[19:47] <dominicdinada> Oer: I don't think i need 4 browsers installed here so ya its gone...
[19:48] <sharplinux> erkan^: when you've downloaded the package, double click it and gdebi will install it for you
[19:48] <erkan^> ok i go try
[19:48] <sharplinux> then try to install lekhonee-gnome
[19:49] <sander__> Scunizi, ActionParsnip I get: mount error 5 = Input/output error

[19:52] <Scotsman> where on earth are the bass/treble controls on this new ubuntu - the bass is far too high!!!
[19:52] <vv_> hi
[19:52] <ActionParsnip> BlackFire: install w32codecs from medibuntu repo (or w64codecs if you use 64bit)
[19:52] <vv_> is there any way to increase the processing power
[19:52] <bour1992> how can i run a .jnlp application?
[19:52] <ActionParsnip> vv_: use a lighter DE
[19:52] <vv_> im running a effects simulation
[19:52] <vv_> but the program crashes
[19:52] <vv_> how to use that
[19:53] <vv_> i dont hav admin rites since this is lab system
[19:53] <erkan^> sharplinux, !! thank you very much. it works!
[19:53] <erkan^> :D
[19:53] <ActionParsnip> vv_: install lxde, fluxbox or some other ligt dsktop, this will free up resources for your apps, running gnome + compiz will use more cpu just for te desktop
[19:54] <Scotsman> unless there is no audio controls now :(
[19:54] <BlackFire> ActionParsnip, i have already installed those
[19:54] <erkan^> I have lekhonee-gnome 0.11 now, because I have added Vala in ppa too, i think
[19:54] <vv_> can you tell me how to do that
[19:54] <ActionParsnip> vv_: your sys admin will need to install it for you
[19:54] <vv_> oh i cant do anything then
[19:54] <metalgeek> Hello, I am new to Linux so please don't kill me for suggesting this but, Is there any way that i could run a small windows app under Ubuntu, I looked at wine but got very confused :)
[19:54] <ActionParsnip> vv_: ask your aadmin, they might be nice
[19:55] <ActionParsnip> metalgeek: whats the app?
[19:55] <vv_> i have a small doubt
[19:55] <ActionParsnip> metalgeek: just right click the .exe file and select "open with wine"

[19:56] <thewolf> iPod help
[19:56] <thewolf> this is getting old...
[19:56] <Ignatius> Why does the official download page say 32 bit is for most desktop users?
[19:56] <ActionParsnip> vv_: if the user has apps running then yes
[19:56] <thewolf> I have wondered that my self
[19:56] <vv_> oh then that would be the problem
[19:57] <metalgeek> Ignatius, I was wondering this myself as i use AMD64
[19:57] <Ignatius> Is there some reason a person shouldn't use 64 bit for desktop?
[19:57] <ActionParsnip> thewolf: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/03/sync-iphone-and-ipod-touch-in-ubuntu.html
[19:57] <metalgeek> Ignatius, I havn't had any trouble with it at all :)
[19:57] <hspaans> Ignatius: most people still have 32 bit machines
[19:57] <Ignatius> Well I've had serious performance issues, so I was wondering if that meant something
[19:57] <oCean_> Ignatius: it's because most users don't know if they have 32 or 64 bit processor. Suggesting 32 bit is the safest way
[19:57] <thewolf> I have iPod nano 5th gen
[19:57] <Ignatius> ah
[19:57] <Ignatius> I see
[19:57] <ActionParsnip> Ignatius: 32bit is still more supported by 3rd party companies (Lexmark for example only make 32bit drivers)
[19:57] <sander__> ActionParsnip, Something is wrong with the smb server.. When I do smbtree from localhost I don't get up my share.
[19:58] <JoeMaverickSett> are there any cases where a laptop cannot hibernate because it has no proprietary graphic card installed?
[19:58] <hspaans> Ignatius: see popcon.debian.org for example you will see some number about install bases
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> sander__: then evaluate the setup
[19:58] <BlackFire> metalgeek, not all the windows application run on wine , it depend on the fact the whether wine is built to support it or not
[19:58] <metalgeek> ActionParsnip, Lovely to hear from you again, always the best. When i use the sortware center to download wine there are two versions, one marked 'dummy' and one marked 'beta?'
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> metalgeek: sudo apt-get install wine    will install what you need
[19:59] <metalgeek> ActionParsnip, :)
[19:59] <sander__> ActionParsnip, I get theese error messages when I restart the smb server: http://pastebin.com/ftGhLDa9
[20:00] <ActionParsnip> sander__: I'd ask in #samba
[20:00] <Scotsman> my indicator aplet doesnt use my other email program :( how do I change this
[20:00] <sander__> ActionParsnip, ok. thanks.
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> Scotsman: what email app do you use?
[20:01] <Scotsman> ActionParsnip, claws
[20:02] <ActionParsnip> Scotsman: http://lwn.net/Articles/369376/     and   https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-applet/+bug/540953
[20:02] <JoeMaverickSett> do anyone you know how to make claws show in the applet, in place of Evolution?
[20:02] <Scotsman> ActionParsnip, ill take a read, thank you
[20:02] <metalgeek> ActionParsnip, Under Window$ there is no point to having a 64bit proccessor, is there any gain under Linux/Ubuntu
[20:02] <bau> how can i restart samba?
[20:02] <thewolf> let me be more specific of my problem... There is no way for me to transfer videos to my new iPod nano 5th gen... even banshee says it can't read the iPod... any help?
[20:02] <erUSUL> !ipod
[20:03] <thewolf> and the ubottu bot is outdatted
[20:03] <rj99> hi guys, when I use gksudo to shutdown my pc by going gksudo shutdown -P now it interprets now as a second command
[20:03] <ActionParsnip> metalgeek: there is a point to 64bit CPU in windows as well as linux
[20:03] <erUSUL> rj99: use sudo; shutdown is not a graphical app
[20:03] <rj99> gah
[20:03] <rj99> allright
[20:04] <metalgeek> thewolf, I am only noob so sorry if this is incorrect but, My PSP only gets recognised if I connect it before startup
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> metalgeek: 64bit helps in audio and video encoding as well as sql servers etc
[20:04] <rj99> is there any other way to shutdown my pc erUSUL
[20:05] <erUSUL> rj99: the gnome ui has various ways to shutdown
[20:05] <monkey_dust> rj99, have you tried sudo init 0?
[20:05] <hspaans> rj99: give hem/her authorisation. see the user authorisation section under system management
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> rj99: try: sudo shutdown now -P
[20:05] <thewolf> metalgeek: My computer can reconize the iPod (Name and all) and can add music... but I have no program to add videos to it and manually trying to find the folder and codic it needs... help
[20:06] <sander__> ActionParsnip, Kwpolska, Scunizi: Seems like I was using samba4 with samba3 config file.
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> thewolf: i believe gtkpod can manage them  ok
[20:06] <rj99> monkey_dust: no I havent erUSUL: using awesome not gnome, trying to write a shutdown option for my awesome menu ActionParsnip: I thought TIME needed to be after the flag?
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> sander__: just install samba after removing samba4
[20:06] <Kwpolska> sander__: lolwut.
[20:06]  * metalgeek rescued by ActionParsnip
[20:06] <metalgeek> cheers
[20:06] <sander__> ActionParsnip, yeah.. worked after I did that.
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> sander__: ive seen too many people install samba4 for one reason or another ten get issues
[20:07] <monkey_dust> rj99, sudo init 0 shuts down the pc -- sudo init 6 restarts the pc
[20:07] <thewolf> ActionParsnip: Tried it... I think with the packages RhythmBox needs to acces the iPod... gtkpod wasn't able to find the iPod at all... I'll try again though...
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> rj99: its free to test
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> thewolf: i dont use ipod, i have a mind of my own
[20:08] <appamajig> lol
[20:08] <appamajig> it's just an mp3 player
[20:08] <appamajig> same as any other... maybe a little nicer than most
[20:08] <DrDamnit> Sometimes, when I setup a static IP in /etc/networking/interfaces, after a while, dhcp still resets the IP away from the static back to what the DHCP server wants it to be. I have resolved this before my uninstalling dhcplient, but it seems like there's a better way. What do you suggest?
[20:08] <thewolf> ActionParsnip: I got it for the quality and the videos and the interface...
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> rj99: awesome is a window manager, gnome is a desktop environment
[20:09] <tiemonster> Is there any way to speed up the boot process? I've already gotten rid of startup applications I didn't deem necessary for a netbook.
[20:09] <metalgeek> ActionParsnip, One of the lead guys at BT advised, if you wanna use an ipod, use a windows environment as apple is as evil as M$....lol
[20:09] <appamajig> oh yes, Apple is super evil :P they're wourse than doctor evil
[20:09] <ActionParsnip> metalgeek: some versions of itunes work with some versions of wine
[20:10] <appamajig> wourse=worse
[20:10] <metalgeek> ActionParsnip, So i hear, that dosn't make @pple any less irritating
[20:10] <thewolf> I have had succes with running iTunes with wine... didn't reconize the iPod at all and wasn't able to acces the iTunnes store
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> metalgeek: i avoid their stuf, its overpriced and underspec'd
[20:10] <metalgeek> thewolf, sorry dude
[20:11] <cruzer> not to mention apple has a cult following
[20:11] <rj99> ActionParsnip: I am aware of that, but im not using gnome panel or anything like that, is there something im missing?
[20:11] <thewolf> ActionParsnip: Thought we all have to admit... the company is better than Microsoft
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> tiemonster: thats all you can really do dude, reducing stuff is one of the best ways
[20:11] <appamajig> nah, I like Microsoft better...
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> thewolf: dunno, microsoft contribute to stuff outside their own interests occasionally
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> thewolf: they also helped make samba afair
[20:12] <tiemonster> ActionParsnip: the desktop version seems a bit slower than UNR. Maybe it's the window manager?
[20:12] <metalgeek> ActionParsnip, Thinking about taking ECDL, any thoughts?
[20:13] <ActionParsnip> rj99: could try +m time   instead of now
[20:13] <Kittymew> Hey ubuntu gurus: I just installed 10.04, and it doesn't seem to have installed grub into the MBR of any drives. I get the windows bootloader if I boot my windows drive, and if I try to boot the drive Ubuntu is actually installed to, I get "no such disk"
[20:13] <Kittymew> and a grub-rescue prompt
[20:13] <Kittymew> The disk is there, it booted properly when I had debian 6 on it.
[20:13] <ActionParsnip> tiemonster: could try a lighter DE etc, that will make the system boot faster after the services have loaded which it will not affect
[20:13] <metalgeek> Kittymew, Reinstall GRUB?
[20:14] <ilovefairuz> !grub | Kittymew
[20:14] <Kittymew> metalgeek: yeah thought I'd drop in and ask for WHY it screwed up before...
[20:14] <Kittymew> ...nevermind. Nobody actually knows.
[20:14] <Kittymew> Got it.
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> wow some people have all the patience
[20:15] <thewolf> gtkpod worked... though for the record I could get some of my friends using Ubuntu if it had a more user friendly way of adding anything to any iPod/iPhone
[20:16] <sds> I wish to install Wine1.2, but apt responds by telling wine1.2 is already installed. running wine --version tells me the installed version is wine-1.1.42; what do I miss?
[20:17] <erUSUL> sds: that wine-1.1.42 is actually 1.2beta
[20:17] <greezmunkey> kitteh: that is an issue. I ran into it myself. I used the install cd in rescue mode, and that sucessfully wrote the grub2 mbr
[20:17] <erUSUL> sds: you can add the wine oficial ppa if you want 1.2 final
[20:18] <erUSUL> sds: $ wine --version --> wine-1.2
[20:18] <metalgeek> Guess he's gone then, didn't mean to offend :(
[20:18] <metalgeek> ;
[20:19] <metalgeek> erUSUL, Good evening, Nice to see you, Hope your having a good day :)
[20:20] <erUSUL> metalgeek: hi; quite good yes; thanks ;P
[20:20] <monkey_dust> erUSUL, metalgeek , the love in this channel is touching
[20:20] <metalgeek> Action Parsnip?
[20:21] <sds> erUSUL: ok, thank you for the hint. guess that 1.2 final will be available soon under ubuntu's repo?
[20:21] <metalgeek> monkey_dust, You just wanna hug dontcha :)
[20:21] <erUSUL> sds: no; ubuntu only updates package versions when a new version of ubuntu comes out.
[20:22] <sds> erUSUL: ok, thank you
[20:22] <erUSUL> !ppa > sds
[20:22] <metalgeek> So anyway, my question was reguarding the ECDL and whether i should take it or not as it seems to concentrate on Windows OS
[20:23] <metalgeek> and i'm learnin Ubuntu at the moment
[20:23] <erkan^> :D
[20:23] <Janhouse> how can I turn off bluetooth permanently?
[20:23] <Janhouse> I hate switching it off each time I turn on my laptop...
[20:23] <sticky> unhook your bluetooth card
[20:23] <Faissal> Janhouse, remove your bluetooth device
[20:24] <Janhouse> Faissal, it is built in. I need software solution.
[20:24] <metalgeek> Janhouse, I take it thast its built in?
[20:24] <Janhouse> It is lame that ubuntu doesn't remember that I turned it off last time I used computer.
[20:24] <metalgeek> that
[20:24] <erUSUL> Janhouse: you can blacklist the BT modules or use rfkill in /etc/rc.local to switch it off
[20:25] <Janhouse> ok, thx erUSUL.
[20:25] <monkey_dust> guys, what's the command again to unlock apt?  - http://paste.ubuntu.com/468574/
[20:25] <sticky> Janhouse, is it a notebook? unscrew the case, find the bt card, remove the cable.
[20:25] <Janhouse> This is kind of stupid that it is not possible to do it from gui....
[20:25] <Faissal> Janhouse, im pretty sure you can find the bluetooth card
[20:25] <Faissal> and remove it
[20:25] <Janhouse> Faissal, that is not the point.
[20:25] <sticky> Janhouse, It's pretty stupid that you have to use a GUI ;-)
[20:25] <metalgeek> Glad to see everyone brought there sense of humor tonight...
[20:25] <sticky> It's easily done with the shell
[20:26] <spiky> Janhouse: have a look in start up apps
[20:26] <Faissal> Janhouse, you can maybe disable it in the bios
[20:26] <esarandon> hi, Iam trying to set up the remote control that comes with my hp laptop

[20:29] <Janhouse> ilovefairuz, not this one :D
[20:30] <ilovefairuz> Janhouse: do you use bluetooth at all? you can blacklist the kernel module if you never use it
[20:30] <Janhouse> That is the problem. I use it sometimes
[20:30] <ilovefairuz> Janhouse: turn off visibility and you shouldn't be concerned
[20:30] <Janhouse> I am suprised that it is not possible using existing bluetooth applet.

[20:32] <erUSUL> Octavio: there is no way the intel driver gets loaded if you have an ati ...
[20:32] <eliminat> ver irc.asylumnet.org
[20:32] <ilovefairuz> octavio: lshw
[20:32] <Janhouse> ilovefairuz and erUSUL thx for info :)
[20:33] <erUSUL> Octavio: and even if it loads it wouldn't interfere with ati hardware
[20:33] <Octavio> : /
[20:33] <Octavio> thank you
[20:33] <erUSUL> Octavio: what is exactly the problem ?
[20:33] <ilovefairuz> octavio: check the actual driver in lshw, no need for speculation
[20:34] <stanley_robertso> hi all
[20:34] <bidaboy> how to change background console
[20:34] <Octavio> I've been looking a way to get the ati driver (the open source) working in lucid, it workded perfet(almost) in 9.04
[20:34] <skreet> bidaboy: edit > profiles
[20:34] <ilovefairuz> thewolf: 64 bit?
[20:34] <bidaboy> skreet, not in xserver
[20:35] <thewolf> ilovefairuz: yes... sigh
[20:35] <skreet> bidaboy:  oh.
[20:36] <ilovefairuz> thewolf: the flash plugin is actually 32 bit and is  wrapped  to work on 64 bit so there are performance implications
 I just quit the ati graphics from motherboard to check the intel drivers,sorry :S
[20:36] <bidaboy> skreet, before starting any desktop
[20:36] <erUSUL> Octavio: see what /var/log/Xorg.0.log says
[20:36] <thewolf> I tried 32 bit but my fan is broke and it couldn't read the disc.. I had to use the Windows installer from the website and it auto installed the 64 bit
[20:36] <skreet> bidaboy: no idea.. also why?
[20:36] <thewolf> ilovefairuz: anyway to fix?
[20:37] <bidaboy> any one else know to change console background image,
[20:37] <ilovefairuz> thewolf: no that i'm aware of. but you can download the 32 bit iso and place it in the same directory as wubi.exe (the windows installer) and it will be detected
 I'll have to reboot be back in 5 mins, to explain more efficient
[20:37] <ilovefairuz> bidaboy: what console? gnome terminal or virtual consoles ?
[20:38] <thewolf> bidaboy: do you the x image ( the image you see when you log in)
[20:38] <skreet> ilovefairuz: he is referring to virtual consoles
[20:38] <monkey_dust> bidaboy, try using ubuntu-tweak
[20:38] <bidaboy> ilovefairuz, before starting xserver
[20:38] <monkey_dust> ok, missed that part
[20:38] <bidaboy> ubuntu-tweak !?
[20:38] <ilovefairuz> bidaboy: do you mean the splash screen ?
[20:38] <Octavio> But i dont have so much hope i think the Videocard is the problem instead the drivers : /, i've been testing it on windows xp and get hot so quickly : /
[20:39] <matelot> Hello , I can just upgrade Wine (1.1.35) from Synaptic PM ?

[20:44] <bidaboy_> ilovefairuz, what u meant
[20:44] <mikeconcepts> are there any pinguy users here?
[20:44] <thewolf> ilovefairuz: or he could just get Ubuntu tweak... it can purge ppa
 Look into Synaptic manager and install ppa purge, then ppa purge and the ppa you want to quit
[20:44] <thewolf> You need getdeb to get ppa purge
[20:44] <thewolf> I know

[20:45] <bidaboy_> ok, i will try
[20:45] <fixxxermet> I have two versions of a package and want to install the newest one
[20:45] <erUSUL> fixxxermet: that should happen automatically
[20:45] <ilovefairuz> bidaboy_: https://launchpad.net/ppa-purge
[20:45] <fixxxermet> erUSUL: You're right, found that it is due to another problem
[20:45] <fixxxermet> Depends on a packag that depends on the libvdpau1 package that doesnt' seem to exist anymore?
[20:45] <erUSUL> fixxxermet: but anyway « sudo aptitude install package=version »

[20:54] <monkey_dust> Lalon, you can use xchat or smuxi or quassel instead

[20:54] <ilovefairuz> Lalon: no, it's a windows application
[20:54] <Random832> Lalon: why do you want to use mirc?
[20:55] <ilovefairuz> Lalon: there are tons of other IRC clients
[20:55] <erUSUL> Lalon: no
[20:55] <Lalon> Random832,  becoz im using xchat and u know i cant use color text here
[20:55] <Random832> xchat isn't what stops you from using color text

[21:02] <Lalon> its tooo much u know for a irc client
[21:02] <erkan^> which versie for thunderbird have you?
[21:03] <erUSUL> savid: that's not possible with ls
[21:03] <monkey_dust> wizard_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/468583/
[21:03] <wizard_> monkey_dust, trying that now mate installing see how it goes see does it meet my needs
[21:03] <ilovefairuz> turgon: you could adjust the orientation of  the router, it sometimes helps
[21:03] <ilovefairuz> EpicCynd: how did you set it to start up ?
[21:03] <erUSUL> savid: and the list order depends on the locale. try « LC_ALL=C ls -1 »
[21:04] <turgon> ilovrefairuz: I do try that. It does not work. If, from the same place, i boot windows, it just works fine!

[21:04] <ibu> hi. I've got some old mpeg2 files, but Media Player won't play them. what do I need to install to make them work?
[21:04] <EpicCynd> ilovefairuz: I added xbmc.bin to my startup applications, and I think I should have just put xbmc. Permissions or something are causing audio not to work
[21:04] <IdleOne> Lalon: Please keep the language clean
[21:04] <oCean_> jt1234: you example is *a little bit* like using a named pipe (fifo). It's usage would be (after creating the fifo) 'echo test > myfifo' then read from that fifo in an other session: 'cat myfifo'
[21:05] <turgon> ubottu, ow nice! didnt know abwt the tab thing for irc.. though i use it intesivly in terminal :P
[21:05] <savid> erUSUL, ah, yes, that was more like what I expect
[21:05] <oCean_> jt1234: however, your specific example would not work using fifo
[21:05] <ilovefairuz> EpicCynd: system > preferences > startup applications ?
[21:05] <wizard_> monkey_dust, thats it installed seems to do the trick for what I need it for
[21:05] <EpicCynd> ilovefairuz: I don't have access to the gnome desktop, though that is how I indeed set it up.

[21:08] <EpicCynd> ilovefairuz: to be more precise, I did an "rm" on the .desktop file, and yes, it autostarts when I log in.
[21:08] <yessir_turan> nvidia twinvie, app window not opening in the screen it was closed in. can anybody help..?

[21:10] <EpicCynd> so not from the ssh (as far as I can tell)

[21:20] <[thor]> woot.. best ubuntu troubleshooting yet.. my friend called me to tell me that his installation of ubuntu had ruined his monitor. He was able to boot into it once, and then after shutting down and moving his computer upstairs, was faced with a blank black screen on boot.
[21:21] <ilovefairuz> EpicCynd: could reveal the file invoking it
[21:21] <shubbar> i have an error in my locale settings, not all are set to my local language, how can i fix this?
[21:21] <EpicCynd> ilovefairuz: only crashlogs :/
[21:21] <R3dy> don't know if anyone has had the chance to run Ubuntu on an IntelI7 with 4G RAM and an Nvide G+ card or not
[21:21] <R3dy> but man it is freaking sweet!
[21:21] <[thor]> 10mins after the frantic message on my answering machine, he left another saying "oh.. i forgot to plug in the monitor power cord.. ubuntu is awesome"
[21:22] <EpicCynd> ilovefairuz: SOMEHOW GOT INTO GNOME, FUDGE YES
[21:23] <EpicCynd> okay, now
[21:23] <EpicCynd> how do I start up an application under root from startup applications?
[21:23] <jaapie> Hello
[21:23] <ilovefairuz> EpicCynd: in its entry in autostart, add "X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false" to the very end
[21:24] <ilovefairuz> !hi | jaapie
[21:24] <jaapie> Any change of getting higher resolution with a nvidia video card?
[21:24] <EpicCynd> ilovefairuz: how will that help exactly?
[21:24] <rich> can anyone recommend a good program for playing dvd's?
[21:25] <ilovefairuz> EpicCynd: hopefully disable it from being auto started
[21:25] <EpicCynd> ilovefairuz: here's the thing: I want it to autostart, but I want it to do so through gnome
[21:25] <monkey_dust> yes, th!best| rich
[21:25] <EpicCynd> it tries to launch it's own session manager, I don't want that
[21:25] <monkey_dust> !best| rich
[21:26] <EpicCynd> I want it to run just as if I would have clicked it in the menu, plus it needs root permissions
[21:26] <ilovefairuz> EpicCynd: so it starts instead of gnome?
[21:26] <Autie> hello, is there a reason why cpufreqd won't work with a preempt kernel? nohing changed, only the kernel. its on a 64bit system
[21:26] <EpicCynd> ilovefairuz: before, it would start instead of Gnome. That's the OPPOSITE of what I want.
[21:27] <ilovefairuz> EpicCynd: so it starts right after you login from GDM? and gnome is not started ?
[21:27] <EpicCynd> ilovefairuz: well, I set it to auto-login to my account, but yes
[21:28] <ilovefairuz> EpicCynd: logout and select gnome as the default session ?
[21:29] <[4-tea-2]> Howdy. Which package provides the System/Administration/Restricted Hardware dialog?
[21:29] <EpicCynd> ilovefairuz: let's just try this at another angle, since that doesn't work if we screw it up (which I already did). How can I run something from startup with root privileges?
[21:29] <SecretDreams> kismet ?
[21:29] <aloon> is okay to talk about maverick in here or is there a better channel ?
[21:30] <oCean_> aloon: #ubuntu+1
[21:30] <aloon> thanks a lot
[21:30] <EpicCynd> ilovefairuz: gonna try a hunch
[21:30] <EpicCynd> also, how do I set ubuntu to not lock my computer after X minutes idle?
[21:30] <ilovefairuz> EpicCynd: you could put it /etc/rc.local (X wouldn't be running) but i'm rather confused on what you're trying to accomplish
[21:30] <[4-tea-2]> Bueler? Anyone?
[21:31] <[4-tea-2]> EpicCynd: that's in the Screensaver preferences, iirc.
[21:31] <DrPoop> anybody here using a t60 thinkpad?
[21:31] <ilovefairuz> EpicCynd: or from power icon in the top right corner
[21:31] <ilovefairuz> !anyone | DrPoop
[21:31] <EpicCynd> thanks [4-tea-2] `
[21:32] <DrPoop> anybody here using a t60 thinkpad?
[21:32] <ilovefairuz> DrPoop: what's your issue?
[21:33] <[4-tea-2]> Well, installing a bunch of packages that started with ubuntu* seem to have solved my problem.
[21:34] <NCS_One> can I set empathy to show what music I'm listenning ?
[21:34] <NerkOne> can you run gui apps on a other users xsession? ex: I log in as user 1 and in a term i su 2 and try to run app xx?
[21:34] <xteejx> Hi all. Reformatted laptop and installed XP, then Ubuntu 10.04, and now cannot boot into windows at all, it just keeps rebooting in a loop, help please!!!
[21:34] <[4-tea-2]> NerkOne: with a little extra work, yes.
[21:35] <EpicCynd> thanks for the help ilovefairuz, seems it was a matter of launching xbmc vs xbmc.bin
[21:35] <NerkOne> [4-tea-2]: some tip?
[21:35] <EpicCynd> however, still can't get audio to work, and I'll leave that to #xbmc
[21:35] <polka53> dpkg -i b43 ... i have messed up in the configuration and now the dpkg is trying to connect to the internet, how do i force dpkg to configure the package one more time ? Oo
[21:35] <ilovefairuz> EpicCynd: np
[21:35] <[4-tea-2]> NerkOne: simplest solution might be to "ssh -X" to that other account, because then SSH takes care of all the X authentication stuff.
[21:35] <mducharme> afternoon
[21:35] <Frijolie> I'm a LAMP noob and don't know what's happened. Hoping someone can help me resolve this error: "ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)"
[21:35] <kazagistar> I want to know if the package pptpd was compiled with "./configure --with-bcrelay" set. How can I check?
[21:35] <NerkOne> [4-tea-2]: any other ideas?
[21:35] <mducharme> is there an easy way of setting up a multiheaded ubuntu box in 10.04?
[21:36] <[4-tea-2]> NerkOne: read up on xauth
[21:36] <NerkOne> [4-tea-2]: thanks.
[21:36] <[4-tea-2]> NerkOne: from my experience, SSH is much less hassle. ;)
[21:36] <xteejx> Can anyone help please? I cannot boot windows after installing Ubuntu, YES I googled it and couldn't make anything out
[21:36] <Dr_Willis> NerkOne:  the 'sux' command may help you 'change' to a different user in a terminal and run a gui app as the new user
[21:36] <mducharme> I am finding instructions on setting up multiheaded ubuntu
[21:36] <mducharme> but they are all old instructions
[21:36] <[4-tea-2]> xteejx: are you sure the Windows partition is still there?
[21:37] <Dr_Willis> xteejx:  be more clear. xp does boot but then 'crashes/reboots' or what exactly?
[21:37] <NerkOne> Dr_Willis: I'll haave a look at that to...
[21:37] <ilovefairuz> Frijolie: ls -l /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
[21:37] <ilovefairuz> Frijolie: exists ?
[21:37] <xteejx> lol Yeah I'm 100% sure it's all there, its a problem with grub2
[21:37] <[4-tea-2]> Dr_Willis: "sux"? Nice. Learn something new every day.
[21:38] <Frijolie> ilovefairuz, "ls: cannot access /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock: Permission denied"
[21:38] <polka53> any ideas how to force dpkg to configure the package one more time when i install the package
[21:38] <ilovefairuz> Frijolie: sudo it
[21:38] <preecher> is they anyway i can use voice chat in ubuntu on yahoo? i have used pidgin then tried empathy and have just tried kopete. it worked when i was using windows but now i only have ubuntu-can someone tole me
[21:38] <aetaric> polka53: sudo dpkg-reconfigure packagename
[21:38] <[4-tea-2]> xteejx: Does grub display an entry to boot the Windows?
[21:38] <erkan^> Do someone know where can I download "NL.xpi for Thunderbird 3.1.1" ? :S
[21:38] <Dr_Willis> [4-tea-2]:  its an old old script :) normally used ages ago
[21:38] <Frijolie> ilovefairuz, "ls: cannot access /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock: No such file or directory"
[21:38] <Dr_Willis> !info sux
[21:39] <polka53> aetaric the package is not installed
[21:39] <xteejx> [4-tea-2]: Yes it does, but I can't remember where the menu.lst file is to take a look
[21:39] <john38> can i get some help here
[21:39] <[4-tea-2]> xteejx: in /boot/
[21:39] <xteejx> it's in the boot menu though
[21:39] <ilovefairuz> Frijolie: pastbin /etc/mysql/my.cf
[21:39] <[4-tea-2]> xteejx: or /boot/grub/
[21:39] <ortsvorsteher> just ask john38
[21:39] <john38> Is there a way to configure the router to stay on while computer is off
[21:39] <xteejx> [4-tea-2]: Nope can't find menu.lst in /boot/ or /boot/grub/
[21:40] <xteejx> Its all in 1 partition btw
[21:40] <ilovefairuz> Frijolie: and debian.cf
[21:40] <ilovefairuz> !grub2 | xteejx
[21:40] <talntid> Hi all. Can someone PM me and tell me WHY this is cool? http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2010/06/cloud-in-your-pocket-uec-liveiso.html -- Cloud Computing in your pocket, but I guess I don't understand it... are his files stored in a cloud, or the kernel, or the whole OS... or... ? :)
[21:40] <xteejx> I know about grub2 I'm not totally brian dead :) and I _have_ read the wiki but it doesn't help if there's a bug in grub2
[21:41] <NCS_One> xteejx: all in one paartition ?
[21:41] <Dr_Willis> talntid:  i would imagine its his files..
[21:41] <ilovefairuz> !ot | talntid
[21:41] <xteejx> Yeah, I didn't repartition for /boot /usr /home whatever
[21:41] <Frijolie> ilovefairuz, /etc/mysql/my.cf = blank file, /etc/debian.cf = blank file
[21:41] <xteejx> i.e. the root filesystem is 1 partition
[21:41] <john38> Is there a way to configure the router to stay on while computer is off
[21:42] <ilovefairuz> Frijolie: sorry, .cnf
[21:42] <eric_3> Hi i am using ssh and rsa key authorization and when i log on it says Permission Denied (Public Key)
[21:42] <online> i cant solve this skype mike problem
[21:42] <ilovefairuz> john38: isn't your router a separate machine? it should stay on
[21:42] <monkey_dust> eric_3, you can delete the public key
[21:42] <ilovefairuz> !sound | online
[21:43] <online> whathanks
[21:43] <[4-tea-2]> eric_3: I think that means you couldn't log in with your key and password auth is not allowed.
[21:43] <online> thnks
[21:43] <SecretDreams> exit
[21:43] <john38> ilovefairuz, well its connected to computer via ethernet
[21:43] <Dr_Willis> xteejx:  you could always make a custome grub2 entry for your xp partition that  you can set however it needs to be
[21:43] <ilovefairuz> john38: this has nothing to do with power
[21:43] <online> the problem only the mic
[21:43] <jefinc> empathy, in karmic, does not allow me to change my name on ICQ, keeps it as my ICQ #, has anyone else run into this?
[21:43] <john38> ilovefairuz, its plugged into same surge
[21:43] <john38> ilovefairuz, is that it
[21:43] <online> i dont have problem with sound
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[21:44] <eric_3> thx
[21:44] <john38> ilovefairuz, surge suppresor
[21:44] <mducharme> is there an easy way of setting up ubuntu 10.04 for multihead
[21:44] <ilovefairuz> john38: i'm not following? but please move the conversation to #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> mducharme: with nvidia, definately
[21:45] <Dr_Willis> mducharme:  with my nvidia chipset box's - setting up 2+ mionitors is rather trivial
[21:45] <Frijolie> ilovefairuz, http://pastebin.com/E7rx91rD  thanks for helping btw
[21:45] <ilovefairuz> online: the applet controls both speakers and mic
[21:45] <monkey_dust> mducharme, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Multihead/

[21:46] <ilovefairuz> preecher: http://www.phrozensmoke.com/projects/pyvoicechat/ but it's more or less a dead project
[21:46] <Frijolie> ilovefairuz, it must also must be said, i think there was an update to mysql recently...it was working fine prior to the update
[21:46] <Dr_Willis> ActionParsnip:  go ahead. but im cooking supper. :)
[21:46] <mducharme> oh!
[21:46] <jimmy_76> mmta... yo soy muy novato en esto de ubuntu , aparte en ingles.. creo que estoy frito
[21:46] <monkey_dust> pedro_, i use Transmission
[21:46] <mducharme> guys I just figured out why I could not find what I needed
[21:46] <preecher> ilovefairuz thanks-)
[21:46] <ilovefairuz> Frijolie: sudo service mysqld status
[21:46] <mducharme> what I'm looking for is called multiseat apparently
[21:46] <mducharme> not multihead
[21:46] <pedro_> thnks monkey_dust
[21:46] <pedro_> :)
[21:47] <[4-tea-2]> wtf is multiseat?
[21:47] <john38> ilovefairuz, im in #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:47] <ActionParsnip> pedro_: there is no best app for anything. there is no best anything in life
[21:47] <mducharme> I want to turn one computer into two
[21:47] <Frijolie> mysqld: unrecognized service
[21:47] <[4-tea-2]> multiple users using one machine?
[21:47] <mducharme> two keyboards two mice two monitors
[21:47] <mducharme> yes
[21:47] <monkey_dust> mducharme, i have a dutch link here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Multihead/
[21:47] <[4-tea-2]> I see.
[21:47] <Frijolie> ilovefairuz, mysql stop/waiting
[21:47] <HerrAnkTejp> j #ubuntu-se
[21:47] <ilovefairuz> Frijolie: service mysql status
[21:47] <monkey_dust> mducharme, i have a dutch link here http://www.linuxinstallaties.be/linux.fd
[21:47] <embrik> how do i capture video from a camera connected with usb?
[21:47] <eric_3> how do i authorize a key?
[21:47] <Dr_Willis> mducharme:  thats technically called 'multi-seat' i belive.
[21:47] <Random832> mducharme: you can't just buy a crappy machine to attach the other keyboard/mouse/monitor to?
[21:47] <mducharme> yes, I realized that dr_willis
[21:48] <ilovefairuz> Frijolie: try sudo service mysql restart
[21:48] <mducharme> random832 this is for a business that is trying to save money
[21:48] <Random832> you might not even need a hard disk if it can net boot
[21:48] <Dr_Willis> mducharme:  i saw some company ages ago  that had some stuff/package that let you set it up rather quickly. their 'free' version of the sioftware i think allowed 2 seats..  I cant even rember its name.
[21:48] <mducharme> I can't make them buy anything
[21:48] <mducharme> we used userful desktop multiplier before
[21:48] <Frijolie> ilovefairuz, mysql start/running, process 2503
[21:48] <ActionParsnip> embrik: i think cheese can do it, not sure if it only does stills
[21:48] <mducharme> but I upgraded them to ubuntu 10.04 and it doesn't work with that
[21:48] <Random832> mducharme: right.... thin clients [where you can buy a bunch of cheap machines and _one_ expensive machine] seems like a better fit than your 'multiseat' idea [where you buy N/2 expensive machines]
[21:49] <monkey_dust> http://www.linuxinstallaties.be/linux.fd => mducharme you can choose your language here
[21:49] <ActionParsnip> mducharme: linux can do multiseat really nicely
[21:49] <finemann> hi, i was testing out this -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202249. But instead of terminal as a background i still get a windowed terminal. Please help
[21:49] <ilovefairuz> Frijolie: can you connect with 'mysql' ? just type mysql -u root
[21:49] <mducharme> I know it can, we've been using userful for a long time
[21:49] <newcomer123> this might be a noobish question
[21:49] <mducharme> I would still be using it if it worked with unbuntu 10.04
[21:49] <embrik> ActionParsnip: Cheese? Have you tried it?
[21:49] <Frijolie> ilovefairuz, hmmm, now it's working? something that simple? if you upgrade mysql it stops the service?
[21:49] <newcomer123> but how do you execute a /bin command from the context of a directory?
[21:50] <ActionParsnip> mducharme: http://linuxgazette.net/124/smith.html    6 seater!!
[21:50] <ilovefairuz> Frijolie: yes it does
[21:50] <eric_3> how do i authorize an rsa key for ssh?
[21:50] <newcomer123> i'm not sure from what context directory the start up scripts in r.local is being executed
[21:50] <ilovefairuz> Frijolie: seems it was stuck while trying to stop
[21:50] <monkey_dust> !ssh| eric_3
[21:50] <Frijolie> ilovefairuz, well thanks, sorry I feel like an idiot now. hehe! I should have been able to figure that one out
[21:50] <newcomer123> right now i have to execute the command from the directory that the configuration file lies in
[21:50] <mducharme> it looks like the only way to do this is manual editing of xorg.conf
[21:50] <ilovefairuz> Frijolie: you're welcome
[21:50] <eric_3> THX!
[21:50] <mducharme> since we can't use userful multiplier anymore
[21:51] <mducharme> which is really annoying
[21:51] <evergreenteresa> hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could tell me why Amarok won't play the music I tell it to play.
[21:52] <monkey_dust> evergreenteresa, a bit more specific, please?
[21:52] <aloon> Amarok doesnt have sound for me under Lucid or maverick , any variant of mplayer or other player works though
[21:52] <aloon> never had that before
[21:52] <embrik> I was suggested to use cheese to import video from a sony video camera connected with usb-cable - have anybody of you a y other suggestions?
[21:53] <evergreenteresa> well I just select a number of mp3 files and open them with Amarok, and it says something like "too many errors occurred blabla"
[21:53] <ActionParsnip> aloon: you may need to install kubuntu-restricted-extras
[21:53] <evergreenteresa> monkey_dust, well I just select a number of mp3 files and open them with Amarok, and it says something like "too many errors occurred blabla"
[21:54] <monkey_dust> evergreenteresa, 'something like blabla' does not sound very technical
[21:54] <lousygarua> newcomer123, what is your question again? try to write it in one message
[21:54] <ilovefairuz> !screenshot | evergreenteresa
[21:54] <evergreenteresa> I know it doesn't but I just got linux on my computer so I can't be much more technical at this point
[21:54] <ActionParsnip> evergreenteresa: have you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras
[21:55] <Maletor> (without line breaks) I want to smash my volume group and all lvms in it. So I guess this means I have to boot from live usb and mount /dev/md1 ? Then chroot ? Then delete the lvm then the vg then remove from fstab? Only thing is I'm confused about the chroot...
[21:55] <evergreenteresa> ActionParsnip, no I haven't
[21:55] <ActionParsnip> evergreenteresa: you need it to play mp3s
[21:55] <evergreenteresa> ubottu, ok screenshot coming right up
[21:55] <jefinc> how do you integrate Pidgin into Ubuntu, Karmic, the way that Empathy is?
[21:55] <ActionParsnip> jefinc: how do you mean "integrate"?
[21:56] <lousygarua> jefinc, karmic is 9.10 right? i have it with pidgin and i can switch statuses from the panel, if that's what you mean
