[10:36] <wols_> Lcawte: then find out what format they are. hexeditors at first, /usr/bin/file. later more specialized tools
[10:36] <sagkavin> sometimes my mouse pointer not clicking on buttons exactly; in Ubuntu 11.04, After maximizing and unmaximizing only i can click, some one please help
[10:37] <bongolo> i have a problem with uploading pictures  to websites although the pictures are on my computer.
[10:37] <qin> ripthejacker: if its intel there is not much choice with driver ;)
[10:37] <Lcawte> wols_: chk document (application/x-extension-chk)
[10:37] <bongolo> does anyone know how i can fix it?
[10:37] <ripthejacker> qin: how to know wic driver
[10:38] <Lcawte> wols_: "data"
[10:38] <garyboy> where can i get a product key for xp?
[10:38] <wols_> Lcawte: useless then. you need to do it manually
[10:38] <ripthejacker> qin: because ive boot the netbook with ubuntu
[10:38] <wols_> garyboy: ask microsoft.com. they sell it
[10:38] <Lcawte> wols_: so, what do I open it with or whatever?
[10:38] <garyboy> for free wols
[10:38] <wols_> ripthejacker: i915
[10:38] <ripthejacker> garyboy: wrong channel to ask that
[10:38] <DJones> !piracy | garyboy
[10:39] <garyboy> i went to windows and they didnt help at all
[10:39] <wols_> garyboy: if you don't stop trolling right now, you will be banned.
[10:39] <shamess> actually, they don't sell it anymore.
[10:39] <garyboy> im not trolling though
[10:39] <qin> ripthejacker: can you disable effects in Apperance?
[10:39] <shamess> garyboy: I think you can buy Windows 7, and still get a free downgrade license with it. But seriously, why'd you come in here and ask for a Windows license?
[10:40] <ripthejacker> qin: i will have to restart pc for that im in mandriva right now
[10:40] <AmberJ> smw: I recently read that UEC 11.10 will ship with openstack rather than eucalyptus...How easy (or difficult) is it to setup openstack on ubuntu (in case you tried it)?
[10:40] <garyboy> because i want to get rid of my ubuntu and partition my drive and also install osx but i keep getting sent back in forth through 50 chats and nobody will help me they think im trollin when im really looking for a legitimate anser
[10:40] <ripthejacker> qin: but can you tell me how o know wic driver is being used
[10:41] <qin> ripthejacker: lsmod will show modules
[10:41] <wols_> garyboy: to install another OS instead of ubuntu, you put in that OS' CD and overwrite the Ubuntu partition(s). that's all you need. asking about OSX or XP in here is offtopic
[10:41] <smw> AmberJ, never tried it... but where did you read that?
[10:41] <jagdeep_> what can be the problem?
[10:41] <garyboy> i know i need that,but i dont have the product key thats the problem
[10:42] <garyboy> and people wont tell me how to hackintosh my pc,
[10:42] <jagdeep_> i had reinstalled it too.
[10:42] <wols_> garyboy: asking in here for such keys will get you banned. go any buy windows if you want to run it
[10:42] <smw> garyboy, so why are you asking about windows product keys here?
[10:42] <garyboy> because windows sent me here
[10:42] <smw> jagdeep_, one sec
[10:42] <garyboy> since im partitioning on ubuntu
[10:42] <jagdeep_> ok
[10:42] <AmberJ> smw: it's all over news sites.... http://www.zdnet.com/blog/open-source/canonical-switches-to-openstack-for-ubuntu-linux-cloud/8875
[10:42] <wols_> garyboy: cause running OSX on non-Apple hardware is a license violation as well. will get you banned frm the network too
[10:42] <smw> garyboy, you still should not ask product key questions here.
[10:43] <garyboy> really?
[10:43] <LeomanFX> hi there
[10:43] <qin> ripthejacker: There is topic https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance
[10:43] <garyboy> its illegal to run osx on pcs?!!!
[10:43] <sda> hi, can i move component on unity panel?  It is probably in .config/chrome or something like that
[10:43] <wols_> garyboy: not illegal. a OSX license violation. apple might and can sue you for it. however, that is Offtopic here too. ask a channel dealing with OSX about it. NOT here
[10:43] <tzsysys> Hi there
[10:43] <garyboy> ok so what chat can i go to to look for a product key?
[10:43] <olaf> Hai
[10:43] <ninka> wiem
[10:43] <garyboy> and what channel deals with osx?
[10:44] <bongolo> i cant figure it out.. i cant even find my damn photos once i get to the upload part of the websites. i have them on desktop and in my photos but it still doesnt show when i try to upload! HELP PLEASE???
[10:44] <wols_> garyboy: none. cause that's actually illegal most of the time
[10:44] <bongolo> i am using ubuntu 10.10
[10:44] <garyboy> i know it is
[10:44] <DarkStar1> garyboy: #mac

[10:45] <DarkStar1> wols_: Apple will sue.. there's no "might" about it :D
[10:46] <smw> LeomanFX, you mean caught? ;-)
[10:46] <wols_> DarkStar1: while it is OT, apple doesn't sue every hackintosh user, hence only "might"
[10:46] <wols_> smw: english is HARD!
[10:46] <smw> wols_, no, it is easy. Little kids learn it!
[10:46] <abd> hi
[10:47] <ripthejacker> smw: yes kids who dont have to learn any other language
[10:47] <smw> wols_, the same thing applies to chopsticks btw ;-)
[10:47] <DarkStar1> wols_:  Ooohhh might be the ones that aren't caught... Yet! Or maybe they're waiting for that blanket suit statute to come into effect
[10:47] <smw> ripthejacker, it is a joke ;-)
[10:47] <ripthejacker> smw: hehe i wasnt starting a debate
[10:47] <smw> hi abd
[10:47] <ripthejacker> smw: i commented for fun

[10:51] <ripthejacker> qin: can you pls tell me again
[10:51] <ripthejacker> ok one basic question ubuntu 11.04 has rp-pppoe package installed by default?
[10:51] <qin> ripthejacker: chack with htop how copmiz behave, try to disable effects, then try metacity --replace
[10:52] <wols_> ripthejacker: rp-pppoe has been deprecated for a long time.
[10:52] <ripthejacker> ok top or htop?
[10:52] <abd> ok
[10:52] <qin> ripthejacker: htop is better
[10:52] <ripthejacker> qin: ok
[10:52] <wols_> ripthejacker: pppoe is a kernel module now
[10:52] <ripthejacker> qin: wols alternative to rp
[10:52] <smw> ripthejacker, try them both, use the one you like
[10:52] <abd> and what about unity
[10:52] <smw> ripthejacker, I can tell you which one you will like more though ;-)
[10:53] <ripthejacker> smw: wic one
[10:53] <smw> abd, I fear it so I haven't upgraded yet XD. U need to do that
[10:53] <AdvoWork> does anyone know where ubuntu records things like page sizes? ie if you go to print, Letter is a certain size, where does it store that information?
[10:53] <smw> ripthejacker, htop
[10:53] <ripthejacker> smw: htop is currently not installed
[10:54] <ripthejacker> smw: ive used rp-pppoe all this time can someone give a quick guide how to setup pppoe connection in ubuntu?
[10:54] <smw> ripthejacker, you have two choices, install htop, or use top...
[10:54] <garyboy> why wont my frostwire download any files?
[10:54] <qin> AdvoWork: You mean dimentions, what file, pdf? ps?
[10:54] <smw> !pppoe | ripthejacker
[10:54] <ripthejacker> smw: i want to install htop but i need internet connection in ubuntu
[10:55] <abd> ripthejacker what is htop?
[10:55] <garyboy> why wont my frostwire download any files?
[10:55] <hilinus> ripthejacker, just download the deb from a system with network access
[10:55] <ripthejacker> abd: improved version of top?
[10:55] <qin> ripthejacker: Well, top is good enough, just harder to watch.
[10:56] <ripthejacker> hilinus: yes can anyone give me link to ubuntu 11.04 packages
[10:56] <abd> ripthejacker and same question about top
[10:56] <ripthejacker> abd: windows user?
[10:56] <smw> AdvoWork, I believe paper size is tracked by CUPS

[10:56] <ripthejacker> abd: its like taskmanager console version
[10:56] <abd> no i m ubuntu beginer

[10:57] <wols_> abd: for future reference: man <some program you don't now>  or "apt-cache show <some program you don't know>
[10:58] <ripthejacker> abd: it gives the top 25 processes
[10:58] <abd> ripthejacker ok
[10:58] <smw> ripthejacker, you don't need htop, you need working internet first ;-)
[10:58] <qin> ripthejacker: http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/i386/htop/download
[11:00] <abd> i m not happy with unity
[11:01] <AdvoWork> qin, smw im just trying to print a normal page to an A4 printer, in cups it says the printer is A4, but whgen i print from firefox it defaults to US letter and wont print properly, ive read up and tried to change what I can, but same problem. Tried google chrome, and that goes to A4, so its def firefox, so i was thinking of being clever and overwriting the width/height of US letter.. any further suggestions?
[11:02] <smw> abd, so use gnome3 or downgrade...
[11:02] <roaming> just upgrageded my machine to natty. how do i get my panel a/k/a task bar to the bottom of screen from left
[11:02] <qin> AdvoWork: Does print to file works ok?
[11:02] <smw> AdvoWork, doesn't firefox have a thing to set the page size?
[11:02] <abd> but i need effect like compiz
[11:03] <smw> abd, gnome 3 has effects
[11:03] <smw> abd, so does the last version
[11:03] <abd> smw what
[11:03] <cbrowne> running Ubuntu 11.04 Server edition on an old P3 box for my uncle and eth0 has disappeared off the face of the earth.  The NIC is there, with its little green status LED lit, the cable is plugged in correctly at both ends but Ubuntu doesn't even think eth0 exists - ifconfig eth0 results in 'device not found', can anyone help?
[11:03] <qin> abd: Natty have Classic (normal gnome) for people like you.
[11:03] <wols_> AdvoWork: firefox has a "page setup" menu entry. why didn't you use that?
[11:04] <smw> abd, gnome3 works with compiz
[11:04] <abd> qin so you mean no effect with gnome 3
[11:04] <wols_> cbrowne: ifconfig -a
[11:04] <abd> smw how?
[11:04] <qin> abd: No clue.
[11:04] <Gryllida> Trying to register at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/. The "Login" link asks to accept OpenID. After I do so, I get a Server 500 error.
[11:05] <smw> abd, how what?
[11:05] <smw> abd, just switch to gnome3
[11:05] <LeomanFX> what's the version of your XP disk ?
[11:05] <smw> !gnome3 | abd
[11:05] <wols_> abd: apt-get install gnome ?
[11:05] <abd> smw ok and than
[11:05] <smw> abd, and then what?
[11:05] <cbrowne> wols_: only lists lo
[11:05] <lqgr00ve> rip: top is a console task manager - i'm starting to catch on
[11:06] <wols_> cbrowne: what NIC is it?
[11:06] <smw> abd, just switch to classic gnome. compiz will be there
[11:06] <cbrowne> wols_: dunno, but it was working up until this morning
[11:06] <wols_> cbrowne: lspci -nn
[11:06] <smw> abd, I don't know what you want :-P
[11:07] <abd> smw i have gnome 3 on my laptop but without any effect like compiz
[11:07] <roaming> no way i can bring the panel to the bottom of screen-natty?
[11:07] <AdvoWork> wols_, wheres that? when you print, and then page options? if so, it works, but you have to do it every single time you print a page//
[11:07] <Gryllida> roaming: Where is it now?
[11:07] <cbrowne> wols_: it doesn't show any network card
[11:07] <wols_> AdvoWork: no, in the "file" menu
[11:07] <smw> !ccm
[11:07] <roaming> its on the left of screen
[11:07] <cbrowne> wols_: I tried lspci to get you your answer when you asked what card it was
[11:07] <wols_> cbrowne: dead network card. buy a new one
[11:08] <Gryllida> !unity | roaming, it's Unity, I don't know how to diable it, but try reading here:
[11:08] <smw> What is the compiz config manager called?
[11:08] <cbrowne> hoorah.  my uncle's gonna be so pleased
[11:08] <wols_> cbrowne: you can try with another OS, e.g. via live cd too if you want
[11:08] <lqgr00ve> cbrowne: that nic is fine - operator error
[11:08] <Gryllida> !classic | roaming, probably this
[11:08] <wols_> cbrowne: 10 bucks max if it's broken. no big deal
[11:08] <smw> abd, just use the compiz config manager. I don't use compiz
[11:08] <cbrowne> lqgr00ve: can you back that up?
[11:08] <cbrowne> wols_: yeah but it's the hassle not the expense
[11:09] <lqgr00ve> cbrowne: i'll see what i can do
[11:09] <shamess> git commit -a
[11:09] <shamess> totally wrong window.
[11:09] <wols_> shamess: we LOVE to receive your patches in here...
[11:09] <lqgr00ve> wols: it's not the point though, by just replacing the nic you are robbing yourself of the oppurtunity to make something work that doesn't
[11:10] <wols_> lqgr00ve: please be a little more constructive in here. thank you
[11:10] <petrolman> Or deactivate your 3 D chip, than you will also get a classic desktop in 11.04 :) happend to me when starting Unity in VirtualBox without 3d support
[11:10] <shamess> wols_: :P
[11:10] <cbrowne> quite. if you want to claim 'operator error'  by all means give me instruction on where I've gone wrong, otherwise keep out of it
[11:10] <roaming> k
[11:12] <tomek_> anyone uses antivirus software?
[11:13] <jpds> tomek_: No.
[11:13] <wols_> tomek_: you've told some time ago that you don't need AV. That hasn't changed since then
[11:13] <wols_> *you've been
[11:13] <petrolman> No, I ve banned antivirus software even on a windows system many years ago
[11:13] <rlc> greetings, i have just installed ubuntu on a flashdrive and set the persistent space to 512MB. i wanted to install/remove applications, but the system pops an error: cannot write to disk.
[11:13] <rlc> could i resize the persistent space?
[11:13] <rlc> or should i start a clean install with bigger space?
[11:13] <rlc> or could i just add another file and mount it?
[11:14] <AdvoWork> wols_, doh, mozilla firefox doesnt have page setup, BUT ive installed an ADDon which gives you page setup, that worked, thanks!!
[11:14] <tomek_> im undecided , some software may be insecure - downloads
[11:14] <wols_> rlc: if it's out of diskspace it explictily tells you so. not "cannot write to disk"
[11:14] <wols_> AdvoWork: my firefox does have it
[11:14] <sam___> hi guys.. i'm looking for some tips on how i can implement traffic monitoring on an ubuntu internet gateway box

[11:14] <rlc> the root dir is 100% used is it ok? does it have to do with the persistent space?
[11:15] <rlc> wols_: let me check the error msg.
[11:15] <zvacet> tomek_:  most of the suff you will ever need you can find no secure repos no need for AV
[11:15] <tomek_> ok
[11:15] <zvacet> *in secure repos or web pages of program you need
[11:16] <Name141> To the guy I was talking to earlier, no idea who now, Ubuntu 10.04 has made it to 10.04.2 when you download it..
[11:16] <cbrowne> has anyone got a paperclip I can borrow?
[11:16] <wols_> sam___: netams, net-acct etc. apt-cache search ip accounting
[11:16] <ikonia> cbrowne: please keep the nonsense out of here
[11:16] <wols_> ikonia: took you long enough
[11:16] <ikonia> wols_: can't be awake 24x7
[11:17] <wols_> you can take cat naps. and you were online earlier :P
[11:17] <TerminalM> hey, i have just installed xubuntu 11.04 and noticed that on battery power my wireless is significantly slower than on power, anyone know what this is?
[11:17] <wols_> no, "power naps" is what I mean I think
[11:17] <wols_> TerminalM: wireless can be powered down to use less battery
[11:17] <squig> TerminalM, sounds like your cpu is slowing down when you are on battery
[11:18] <wols_> wlan is a significant powerdrain
[11:18] <AdvoWork> wols_, well, 4.01 mozillas firefox doesnt have it
[11:18] <Name141> wols_: I remember you was here, some s guy was wondering about it.. oh well I can't remember anymore
[11:18] <Ash-Fox> Hello, I'm dealing with some rather exotic hardware and was hoping someone could tell me the modprobe command (since apparently scsi_ide isn't the correct module anymore?) to load the device with the address '00:0f.1' as an IDE interface for Ubuntu Natty?
[11:18] <TerminalM> anyone know how i can fix this?
[11:18] <wols_> Ash-Fox: what pci id?
[11:19] <wols_> TerminalM: depends on wlan chipset iirc
[11:19] <ikonia> Ash-Fox: ide is dead, it should be translated to a scsi device address using libata
[11:19] <Ash-Fox> wols_, 00:0f.1 0101: 1166:0210 (rev 4a) according to lspci
[11:20] <TerminalM> wols_, 02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4321 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 03)
[11:21] <TerminalM> it worked fine on older versions
[11:21] <sam___> wols_: thnx appreciate that..
[11:22] <rlc> wee, i am opening the software center but it stays green all the way.
[11:22] <rlc> is it related to the full disk?
[11:22] <rlc> disk usage: http://pastie.org/pastes/2007694
[11:23] <ikonia> rlc: you can't do anything if / is full
[11:23] <rlc> ikonia: so, what should i do now?
[11:23] <ikonia> rlc: clear down some space
[11:24] <rlc> i cannot remove the application i have just installed.
[11:24] <rlc> i.e. fontmatrix + inkscape
[11:24] <ikonia> rlc: then you need to increase the size of the / partition
[11:24] <wols_> TerminalM: iwconfig, the options power and txpower. see manpage
[11:24] <ikonia> rlc: you've only put it as 500meg, the minimum recommended was 2GB
[11:24] <TerminalM> sudo iwconfig eth1 power off
[11:24] <TerminalM> fixed it, thanks
[11:24] <rlc> ikonia: how do i change the aufs?
[11:25] <ikonia> aufs ?
[11:25] <rlc> ikonia: oh, the root
[11:25] <ikonia> rlc: how have you installed ubuntu to aufs ?
[11:26] <rlc> idk. i used the pendrivelinux's installer and install ubuntu 11 to my flash.
[11:26] <ikonia> how big is your flash drive ?
[11:26] <rlc> 4gb
[11:26] <ikonia> rlc: ok, so you need to repartition your flash drive with a bigger partition thatn 500meg
[11:27] <rlc> so, the persistent space is the root?
[11:27] <ikonia> yes, that is persistant
[11:28] <rlc> i thought the persistent space is another space outside the os to keep the files and configs.
[11:28] <rlc> xP
[11:28] <ikonia> rlc: the files are installed to root, so you'll have to make that persistent
[11:28] <squig> sorry sort of new to debian/ubuntu I want to backport the nvidia driver from 11.04 to 10.04 I was wondering how I use apt-get to download the source from a different version?
[11:29] <ikonia> squig: you can't do that, as nvidia is closed source, so you can't get the source code
[11:29] <wols_> squig: put in a deb-src line for the old version and use apt-get source -t <old version> <package>
[11:29] <Kartagis> why can't I redirect crontab -l to a file?
[11:29] <wols_> ikonia: but you can get the source for the package, no? even when it is mainly a big blob?
[11:29] <ikonia> totally, yes
[11:29] <rlc> ikonia: oh, it reminds me, my flash hasn
[11:30] <rlc> 't been partitioned.
[11:30] <squig> wols_, im on 10.04 and im trying to get the files out of 11.04?
[11:30] <ikonia> but if you're doing that, you may as well just install the driver from nvidia.com
[11:30] <wols_> squig: as I told you
[11:30] <wols_> ikonia: well, ubuntu gives you a nice shiny .deb at the end, nvidia doesn't, right?
[11:30] <rlc> ikonia: so, currently could i access/use the empty space? (as my flash hasn)
[11:30] <rlc> *hasn't been partitioned?
[11:31] <abd> WHAT IS THE BEST GRAPHIC PROGRAMMER APLICATION USING IN UBUNTU
[11:31] <ikonia> wols_: yes, a supported deb
[11:31] <squig> i have 20 machines to install it on, I would like to use the standard package managers, and dkms will update when kernels update
[11:31] <ikonia> abd: please don't use caps lock
[11:31] <ikonia> squig: sounds a reasonable idea
[11:32] <Hil0> I updated to 10.10 yesterday (I though I had already done so a long time ago but apparently not) and now my dead keys aren't working without combining them with a letter. I have swedish keyboard layout and I'm not interested in the eliminating dead keys since I want to still be able to do letters with accents. I also know I've had this problem before, but I can't remember when, or how I solved it.
[11:32] <abd> we have to speak about graphic programmation on ubuntu
[11:33] <ikonia> abd: then ask a question, without caps
[11:34] <abd> ikonia sorry
[11:35] <abd> ikonia so what a bout programing under ubuntu
[11:35] <ikonia> abd: ask a question
[11:35] <beef-supreme> anyone here installed thunar in ubuntu?
[11:35] <Ash-Fox> abd, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Programming
[11:35] <squig> what sort of programming do you want to do?
[11:35] <wols_> beef-supreme: ask your real question
[11:36] <beef-supreme> wols_, thunar fails to mount media
[11:36]  * wols_ fails to spot a question mark anywhere here
[11:36] <beef-supreme> wols_, but if you don't use thunar it's probably unlikely that you know how to fix
[11:36] <beef-supreme> wols_, why does thunar fail to mount media
[11:36] <rlc> ikonia: if i set the whole disk for persistent space, could i access the files in it from windows? or should i partition the flash into two partitions: OS and data? what's the rule of thumb to determine the size?
[11:37] <ikonia> rlc: you are using a file system that is unsupported in windows
[11:37] <beef-supreme> wols_, the error is reproducible, install ubuntu mini in a virtual machine, install xorg, openbox and thunar
[11:37] <wols_> beef-supreme: good luck you will need it with the way you ask for help. have a nice day
[11:37] <ikonia> beef-supreme: ubuntu mini ?
[11:37] <beef-supreme> ikonia, yes
[11:37] <ikonia> beef-supreme: where did you get ubuntu mini ?
[11:37] <beef-supreme> ikonia, the ubuntu website?
[11:38] <beef-supreme> ikonia, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[11:38] <d3vlin> I noticed the ubuntu natty installer cd had a very nice fullscreen (i.e. 1920x1080?) boot logo (plymouth), can't get that working on my regular install though, any hints?
[11:38] <ikonia> beef-supreme: the mininal install cd, not something called ubuntu mini
[11:38] <Ash-Fox> I would very much appreciate it if someone could point me in the direction of which current kernel module in Ubuntu Natty is which loads/discovers IDE devices.
[11:38] <rlc> could i partition a flash drive, from which i boot ubuntu, using the booted ubuntu?
[11:38] <sudokill> d3vlin did u install nvidia / ati drivers?
[11:39] <d3vlin> sudokill: yes, nvidia-current
[11:39] <sudokill> thats why
[11:39] <sudokill> i think only with the generic drivers it has full res
[11:39] <wols_> Ash-Fox: considering the PCI ID you gave isn't recognized by lspci basically means there is no driver for it under linux. the evidence points to a really old IDE RAID driver from broadcom
[11:39] <d3vlin> a that is a shame
[11:39] <beef-supreme> ikonia, my bad, install the minimal version of ubuntu, xorg, openbox and thunar, dbus and hal, open thunar, the list of unmounted media is on the panel, click any of them and you get a "thunar was unable to mont" error
[11:39] <d3vlin> it's not that important, but it looks way better
[11:39] <sudokill> i know
[11:40] <squig> d3vlin, avoid rebooting :)
[11:40] <Ash-Fox> wols_, I'd still like to attempt to force loading it on the off chance I can get it working.
[11:40] <d3vlin> well I don't keep my HTPC running 24/7 ;)
[11:40] <ikonia> beef-supreme: no idea with out running a test myself, it's likley you are missing a dependency package for that to work
[11:41] <beef-supreme> ikonia, yes, most likely
[11:41] <Ash-Fox> Sorry about my English, I haven't slept for at all and it's making me a bit screwy.
[11:41] <nephro> skype on ubuntu 64bit is still a pain, right?
[11:42] <ikonia> nephro: no
[11:42] <jpds> nephro: No.
[11:42] <nephro> oh, really?
[11:42] <rlc> ikonia: thanks for the help. i'll create a new usb installation.
[11:42] <nephro> apt-get install skype -- then?
[11:42] <wols_> beef-supreme: thunar-volman btw
[11:43] <gotsanity__> Whenever I transfer files to a usb flashdrive it will start out fast and then quickly drop in speed (without changing the remaining time). Eventually it will just read 0 seconds left and sit there for a really long time. Any idea how to fix this?
[11:43] <beef-supreme> wols_, it's there, that's the reason why the unmounted media are displayed
[11:43] <zvacet> beef-supreme: not sure but maybe thunar-volman plugin may help
[11:44] <beef-supreme> zvacet, thunar-volman is a dependency of thunar, you can't install thunar without thunar-volman
[11:44] <nephro> ikonia, so, can you suggest a link or smth? Googling give me only outdated(2008) links to ubuntu community site
[11:44] <wols_> beef-supreme: any error messages? .xsession-errors maybe?
[11:45] <sudokill> nephro i think skype is in ubuntu tweak
[11:45] <ikonia> !skype
[11:45] <beef-supreme> wols_, no errors, i'm reinstalling it in my virtual machine, i previously tried it in debian to see if works there
[11:45] <wols_> beef-supreme: I suggest starting thunar from a terminal and check there
[11:46] <rlc> can i install applications in a specific directory?
[11:47] <rlc> *a specific partition
[11:47] <ikonia> rlc: no
[11:47] <ikonia> the package manager will install them in a predefined place
[11:47] <rlc> so the apps would always go to root?
[11:47] <Guest85151> funny : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNRit2wrxkU
[11:47] <ikonia> they don't go to root, they go to many directories under root
[11:47] <rlc> *to the ubuntu's partition
[11:48] <zvacet> rlc:yes
[11:48] <ikonia> rlc: they go to /usr/bin, /etc/ /var etc etc
[11:48] <rlc> so, if i use a live cd, i couldn't add application? (because the root is not writeable?
[11:48] <ikonia> rlc: you can , as root is your memory
[11:48] <ikonia> however when you reboot, it will go
[11:48] <ripthejacker> qin: hi im back
[11:48] <nephro> ikonia, that seems out of date too... There actually is a skype package on skype.com for 64 bit linux
[11:48] <nephro> lol
[11:48] <ripthejacker> qin: the one with display problems
[11:48] <ikonia> nephro: update it then
[11:48] <nephro> so dl + dpkg -i skype.deb works
[11:49] <ripthejacker> qin: i have a screen shot
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> nephro: I always use the skype site for insalling it
[11:49] <ripthejacker> qin: using my digicam
[11:49] <nephro> ActionParsnip, well, last time I tried to do that, there were only 32 bit packages
[11:49] <rlc> ikonia: but when i use flash + persistent, the root would eventually be placed in the flash instead of ram?
[11:49] <nephro> and the link ikonia gives is rather misleading
[11:49] <nephro> imho
[11:49] <ikonia> rlc: depends how you set it up, but yes
[11:49] <ikonia> nephro: then update it
[11:49] <rlc> ikonia: ok. thanks.
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> nephro: really, that far back :)
[11:50] <nephro> ikonia, is it open for anyone to edit?
[11:50] <ikonia> nephro: sure,
[11:50] <nephro> I'll consider that when I have a minute
[11:54] <lotuspsychje> anyone knows why volumes still show in natty after disabling apps/nautilus/desktop in gconf-editor?
[11:54] <DrGod> Ubuntu is so full of bugs and stupid that I dont know what to do: Crashes on laptop lid down, applets crash and dissapear, keybord is not configured according to install, multiscreen is buggy and doesnt work properly and unity is wtf.
[11:56] <zvacet> DrGod:  one question at the time maybe someone ca help you
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> DrGod: check your EULA ;)
[11:56] <DrGod> "Ubuntu is a fast, secure and easy-to-use operating system used by millions of people around the world." -Ubuntu.com. BULLSHIT! It is nothing more than a slightly interactive picture of a desktop. Unless I want to tinker with linux, I see no reason to bother with ubuntu.
[11:56] <jpds> DrGod: OK, bye.
[11:56] <lotuspsychje> lol
[11:56] <zvacet> drgod
[11:58] <Deedub> first time ever typing on an IRC chat, Hello.
[11:59] <shamess> Deedub: we're that new people are starting to use such an old technology. :D
[11:59] <ozzmosis> hi Deedub
[11:59] <shamess> *weird
[11:59] <kLownish> not really sure if this is the correct place to ask, but is it possible to run a VM of a linux box I have on my network, in windows?
[11:59] <rlc> hi Deedub
[11:59] <ozzmosis> kLownish: you want to run an image of a linux box in a VM?
[12:00] <shamess> I guess it's still the best place to get this type of support though.
[12:00] <xlinkerz> hello
[12:00] <kLownish> ozzmosis, yes, if possible, it would be quicker than switching back and forth between the two
[12:00] <rlc> xlinkerz: hello
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> kLownish: yes, you can P2V and have a virtual system
[12:01] <Deedub> shamess, thanks, simple is elegant.
[12:01] <Deedub> hi ozzmosis.
[12:01] <wols_> kLownish: not possible. you can run a windows installation which exists as a partition on one of your disks, but you can't do it over the network unfortunately
[12:01] <ozzmosis> kLownish: should be fine
[12:01] <wols_> ActionParsnip: p2v?
[12:02] <xlinkerz> anybody here working on LightDM
[12:02] <wols_> xlinkerz: ask your real question
[12:02] <ozzmosis> wols_: I think you can actually but I'm not sure that's what kLownish wanted to do
[12:02] <wols_> ozzmosis: and how can you do it?
[12:02] <xlinkerz> @wols_ im doing the same
[12:03] <beef-supreme> wols_, http://i.imgur.com/59sBp.png
[12:04] <kLownish> Basically, I have a linux box on my laptop (connected by vga to the same tv my windows computer is) that I use for all my android development (already have it set up in linux, no need to switch to windows), and I would like to access that from windows if possible.  Is there a better way than a VM?
[12:04] <mattyh88> hey, is there a site available to see what version apt-get uses for a specific package?
[12:04] <kLownish> linux box on my laptop, wow that sounds stupid, so much for 4am typing skills.
[12:04] <beef-supreme> wols_, i just realized that nautilus can't mount either
[12:05] <wols_> beef-supreme: is this debian or ubuntu? debian maybe check for the plugdev group
[12:05] <beef-supreme> this is ubuntu
[12:05] <wols_> well, check anyways :P
[12:05] <beef-supreme> wols_, debian's thunar won't even show the volumes
[12:05] <ech0s7> hi
[12:05] <oCean> mattyh88: try "/msg ubottu !info packagename ubuntuversion (example: /msg ubottu !info vino lucid) Or check packages.ubuntu.com
[12:05] <ozzmosis> kLownish: wubi may be an option
[12:05] <wols_> beef-supreme: try to run X as root (for shits and giggles)
[12:06] <wols_> ozzmosis: you're right, that would work, but I shudder at the I/O performance. VM _and_ network access for every file
[12:06] <wols_> ozzmosis: and it wouldn't work very well for the remote linux machine
[12:06] <beef-supreme> wols_, running it as root seams to work
[12:06] <beef-supreme> wols_, as you would expect
[12:07] <ozzmosis> wols_: I think kLownish just wants windows + linux running concurrently on the same machine
[12:07] <Deedub> i just downloaded Xchat.  entered nick and real names, do i need to register somewhere?  I'll use these names in the future on other distros.
[12:07] <wols_> beef-supreme: run X via "startx" and check that tty for any permission errors?
[12:07] <kLownish> ozzmosis, I dont really need them "running" on the same machine.  I just need to access the linux box from windows, see the desktop and such, thats why I figured vm would be a good idea.
[12:07] <beef-supreme> wols_, i am running it using startx
[12:08] <ech0s7> where can i find the configuration file where are collected all module and daemon to start at boot?
[12:08] <wols_> ozzmosis: he said a remote linux installation
[12:08] <mattyh88> oCean: thx
[12:08] <wols_> kLownish: you can access your linux laptop via VNC
[12:08] <wols_> !upstart | ech0s7
[12:08] <kLownish> wols_, I'll check that out, thanks.
[12:09] <wols_> kLownish: remote X also works for LANs
[12:09] <ozzmosis> kLownish: VNC .. or you could run an X server on the Windows machine (eg. cygwin's) and use ssh X forwarding
[12:09] <beef-supreme> wols_, no erros in tty
[12:09] <ech0s7> ok wols_ but on ubuntu where is config file ?
[12:10] <Ghost_Who_Walks> can i have gnome 3 without the shell
[12:10] <ech0s7> yes Ghost_Who_Walks
[12:10] <ech0s7> fallback mode
[12:10] <oCean> !gnome3 | Ghost_Who_Walks
[12:11] <kLownish> free version of vnc doesnt support win7, lovely.  guess I will try running an X server on windows then.
[12:11] <Ghost_Who_Walks> hmm well thanks guys
[12:11] <beef-supreme> wols_, i even added my user to the root group
[12:11] <beef-supreme> wols_, still nothing
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> kLownish: apps often have web UIs too, you can look into that as well (much sleeker than VNC)
[12:11] <ozzmosis> kLownish: heh, really?
[12:11] <wols_> kLownish: you're wrong. ultravnc is GPL and supports windows 7 just fine
[12:11] <kLownish> wols_, thanks, I was looking at realvnc :)
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> beef-supreme: add the user to the admin group, it will then be able to use sudo
[12:12] <ozzmosis> kLownish: so does tightvnc, apparently
[12:12] <beef-supreme> ActionParsnip, i am in the admin group and i can use sudo
[12:12] <beef-supreme> but the point of making thunar handle my mounts/umounts is exactly to get rid of permission to do so
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> beef-supreme: so why add the user to the root group?
[12:12] <beef-supreme> ActionParsnip, because thunar always complains i am lacking permissions
[12:12] <wols_> ActionParsnip: for debugging purposes
[12:13] <wols_> beef-supreme: I see an extended strace session in your future
[12:13] <SAngeli> Hi, I just installed ubuntu 11.04 and wish to install nomachine NX but do not know how to. I am confused because some old docs report that I have to install extra applications to make NX work. Is there a doc or page on Internet that would guide me through on how to install NX on a desktop for current 11.04 version?
[12:13] <beef-supreme> wols_, anyway nautilus behaves in the same way
[12:13] <beef-supreme> can't mount /umount
[12:13] <beef-supreme> can you tell me what groups are you into?
[12:14] <SAngeli> Also, I am confused if I have to install the Server or the Node version
[12:14] <wols_> SAngeli: nomachine strongly discaourages people to use a free version of their software. with predictable results
[12:14] <ozzmosis> kLownish: it's possible they might just mean the server doesn't work in win7, not the client  // getting off-topic
[12:14] <beef-supreme> i'm in root adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin sambashare admin
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> beef-supreme: then run:  gksudo thunar
[12:15] <SAngeli> wols_, I have it running and it is not the free version but the regular version with up to 4 free users. I have it perfectly running on a CentOS server and am very pleased with it.
[12:15] <wols_> ActionParsnip: we already established that it works as root
[12:15] <kLownish> ozzmosis, last comment ot:  I'm going to try uvnc and see if it works, if it doesn't then I'll test realvnc.
[12:15] <SAngeli> I need to understand how to install in on ubuntu 11.04. wols_ can you please help?
[12:15] <beef-supreme> ActionParsnip, 1. thunar was made to mount /umount without permissions, 2. thunar doesn't allow you to mount if you run it with sudo, much like nautilus
[12:15] <kLownish> Thanks for the help ozzmosis, wols_, ActionParsnip
[12:15] <ozzmosis> kLownish: gl
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> beef-supreme: I see
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> beef-supreme: are you using lubuntu?
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> or lxde
[12:17] <Deedub> no
[12:17] <Deedub> oops sorry
[12:17] <SAngeli> anyone else could please help me?
[12:17] <zvacet> ActionParsnip: he started with minimal cd and then installed stuff
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> gotcha
[12:18] <rlc> hi, could you suggest me the best way to get portable ubuntu on 4gb flash?
[12:18] <rlc> cmiiw, afaik there are three ways or so: portable linux, live usb creator, pendrivelinux.
[12:18] <beef-supreme> ActionParsnip, yes i am
[12:18] <beef-supreme> ActionParsnip, i'm actually trying several distros at a time,
[12:19] <jpds> rlc: Install Ubuntu onto the USB as it's / partition.
[12:19] <beef-supreme> ActionParsnip, fedora seams to be the only one where thunar works, but other features are buggy in fedora
[12:19] <beef-supreme> ActionParsnip, ubuntu sees the unmounted parittions but is inable to mount / umount
[12:19] <rlc> jpds: using which method?
[12:19] <beef-supreme> ActionParsnip, debian doesn't even see them
[12:20] <jpds> rlc: Use a LiveCD, and run the usual install process.
[12:20] <rlc> it seems there are little differences to these installation: portable linux, live usb creator, pendrivelinux.
[12:20] <oCean> SAngeli: I downloaded -server -node and -client. Installed all 3 of the packages on the server, for the client the -client package was sufficient
[12:20] <ech0s7> where is the configuration file where are collected all module and daemon to start at boot?
[12:21] <rlc> jpds: i couldn't get a live cd easily (no cd writer).
[12:21] <SAngeli> oCean, the three files did you download them from this website: http://www.nomachine.com/download-package.php?Prod_Id=2961?
[12:21] <SAngeli> http://www.nomachine.com/download-package.php?Prod_Id=2961 this is the link: oCean I added a ? at the end and do not know if it works
[12:22] <oCean> SAngeli: exactly. It was only 2 weeks ago, so I remember :)
[12:22] <pdor> ciao atutti
[12:22] <bazhang> !it | pdor
[12:22] <SAngeli> oCean, it reports to run "sudo dpkg -i nxclient_3.5.0-6_i386.deb " I am not good with linux. Is this going to work on ubuntu if I just run this commands?
[12:23] <oCean> SAngeli: yes, that's exactly how I installed the packages
[12:23] <SAngeli> thank you oCean .  Are you happy with this software?
[12:23] <SAngeli> does it run fine?
[12:23] <rlc> could you help me to pick the best between ubuntu from portable linux, live usb creator, and pendrivelinux?
[12:24] <oCean> SAngeli: I think its performance is remarkably good
[12:24] <SAngeli> I agree with you oCean
[12:24] <rlc> anyone?
[12:24] <as001> hi what probram do we use to read rss feeds under Ubuntu ?
[12:24] <as001> I tried blam and yassr or something but those give me errors
[12:25] <SAngeli> one last question: I recall on centos I had to setup the database for user acces and on the client (on windows) I had to cut/paste the certificate for authentication. Is this the same here with ubuntut? oCean
[12:26] <Deedub> bye for now
[12:26] <Deedub> exit
[12:27] <HaikUbuntu> Hello All
[12:27] <oCean> SAngeli: I did no such thing, actually for now I did nothing more than the basics (start nxclient and run single program) For full-blown implementation of the product, the specific documentation might be useful.
[12:27] <HaikUbuntu> I know how to have the result of this alias "ll = 'ls-alF | less' bash in color ?
[12:28] <HaikUbuntu> Is this possible because it prevents the less
[12:28] <HaikUbuntu> without "| less" I like the color ...
[12:28] <SAngeli> oCean, thanks for your help. Very well appreciated.
[12:28] <oCean> SAngeli: very welcome
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> HaikUbuntu: try:   less -R
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> HaikUbuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=198523
[12:31] <HaikUbuntu> ActionParsnip, I have a color, but not other
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> HaikUbuntu: other what?
[12:32] <HaikUbuntu> ActionParsnip, > one color only
[12:32] <ActionParsnip> HaikUbuntu: if you run: ls -Al | less -R      it will keep the colours in less for every file and folder, I just tried it
[12:34] <as001> liferea seems to work.
[12:34] <Bartzy|work> When doing netstat -plnt I see a port (33987) that has no PID assigned to it. lsof -i :33987 didn't return anything. How can I know what process opened that port ?

[12:36] <researcher123> I want my entire PC image to be stored on some server.can somebody guide me?
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> researcher123: make an image of the system, then upload the image to whatever server you desire
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> researcher123: you can use partimage to make the image (use liveCD so the partition is not mounted)
[12:37] <researcher123> ActionParsnip: Im not much conversant with this technology.How to creat complete image?
[12:37] <mehdi> hey guys if a linux distro has only live(without) installation can u set it up on ur PC?
[12:37] <bazhang> mehdi, which version of ubuntu, what are you trying to do
[12:37] <wols_> Bartzy|work: sudo netstat -anp|grep 33987
[12:37] <SAngeli> oCean, when tried to run # sudo dpkg -i nxclient_3.5.0-6_i386.deb  I got some dependecies issue and therefore it did stop. Did you get this issue too?
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> mehdi: I'd imagine so, it will be harder. Grub2 can be told to boot ISO files too
[12:38] <SAngeli> oCean, I see on NX docs on how to install that there are several libraries required to install.
[12:39] <mehdi> @bazhang well i ask generally  it is gnome 3 i want to install but it says it was live and im not sure if there is any installation dats y i ask
[12:39] <Bartzy|work> wols_: I get "-" in the PID column.
[12:39] <bazhang> mehdi, gnome3 is from a PPA, how did you propose to run it in live mode only, barring remastering a ubuntu cd
[12:40] <ActionParsnip> bazhang: there is a live gnome3 cd based on suse or fedora
[12:40] <bazhang> ActionParsnip, right. so he should ask in #suse or #fedora
[12:40] <ActionParsnip> bazhang: sounds reasonable to me
[12:41] <wols_> Bartzy|work: with sudo?
[12:44] <Fudge> anyone know if it would be possible to cause a beep/flash when consoel prompts for password and two beep/flashes for password prompt?
[12:44] <saliak> How would one read input from a usb keyboard plugged into a linux system if you're sshing in?  I've got a USB barcode scanner that's connected to my system and I'd like to have it accessible via non-logged-in-at-the-machine access.  If I login at the system, it behaves like a keyboard (when you scan a code, it gets pumped to stdin)
[12:46] <onaip> Hello people
[12:46] <ActionParsnip> saliak: pipe the code to a file and it wil be easily accessible
[12:46] <Gomaaz> hi
[12:46] <onaip> can someone teach how to copy folder to  /usr/share/slim/themes  ? ?
[12:47] <onaip> i'm a noob with command lines
[12:47] <ActionParsnip> Fudge: do you mean for sudo?
[12:47] <onaip> yup
[12:47] <onaip> i think
[12:47] <ActionParsnip> onaip: sudo cp -r folder /usr/share/slim/themes
[12:47] <onaip> like I want to move a folder located in my downloads to
[12:48] <saliak> ActionParsnip: I was thinking it'd involve something like a pipe.  i'm not sure exactly where to start?  if it's a USB HID device, what's the device it'd show up as?  I see a /dev/hidraw0 that spits out garbage (not the actual scanned code, but something that seems to be somehow correlated).  is that what I need to pipe?
[12:48] <onaip> what does -r  stand for ? ?
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> onaip: check the man page ;)
[12:49] <onaip> ok . . thanks . ..
[12:50] <onaip> would it copy all files in the directory as well ? ?
[12:50] <saliak> ActionParsnip: or do i pipe stdin to a file, and read from that file in another process/login?

[12:51] <[deXter]> Hi all, looking for a simple, lightweight dock like wbar that can also show running tasks. Any suggestions would be welcome, thanks.
[12:51] <ActionParsnip> saliak: i'd imagine there is a way to pipe it to the ssh session, may be as simple as piping to the /de/ttyX
[12:52] <P-RONALDO> ÓäÇå
[12:52] <OpenSUSE> deXter cairo;)
[12:53] <onaip> ActionParsnip:  Hi. .  just one more question. .  does this make sense ??      sudo cp -r /Downloads/fingerprint /usr/share/slim/themes
[12:53] <onaip> ?/
[12:53] <onaip> ActionParsnip: did i do anything wrong. .
[12:53] <onaip> ? ?
[12:53] <[deXter]> OpenSUSE, Thanks but it was a bit too heavy and buggy to my liking.
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> onaip: sounds fine
[12:53] <onaip> ActionParsnip:  it doesn't work
[12:54] <onaip> ActionParsnip: keep getting error:   cp: cannot stat `/Downloads/fingerprint': No such file or directory
[12:54] <saliak> ActionParsnip: so if i do "cat /dev/stdin > reader.txt", that seems to work (in that everything i scan shows up in the text file bar.txt, that I can read from any login
[12:54] <P-RONALDO> what your speak????????????????
[12:54] <OpenSUSE> deXter search "dock" in ubuntu software center. i remember there were 2 or 3 docks there.
[12:55] <gh1234> onaip: Try sudo cp -r ~/Downloads/fingerprint /usr/share/slim/themes
[12:55] <ActionParsnip> onaip: just found: echo "hello" | sudo tee /dev/pts/4
[12:55] <saliak> ActionParsnip: but that seems a little weird.  is that the right way to do it?  i'm running a headless system with an LCD display.  when it turns on, it needs to start a program that'll take appropriate actions based on the barcode reader input
[12:55] <DirtyDawg> cairo and docky are 2
[12:55] <ActionParsnip> onaip: you'll need to toy with which number is yours
[12:55] <Fudge> no ActionParsnip , for a tty console once a user switches to say tty4 they hear a beep or if the system is configured to consoel flash they see that. then again twice when the password prompt appears. to avoid a user typing their password where they shouldnt accidently who is blind.
[12:55] <[deXter]> OpenSUSE, Good idea; I'll try them out thanks.
[12:55] <onaip> ActionParsnip: I don't understand. .
[12:56] <onaip> sorry
[12:56] <onaip> I'm a bad ass noob
[12:56] <OpenSUSE> deXter your wellcome ;)

[12:57] <Z30> hi

[12:58] <Z30> i need to install ubuntu with network! how can i do that?
[12:58] <ActionParsnip> c0dewiz: add the boot option: forcevesa
[12:59] <ActionParsnip> Z30: you can use the minimal ISO burned to CD. If you setup a PXE server you can PXE boot and install over LAN

[13:08] <justaguy92> bazhang, am i able to use the live boot and burn the iso to another cd? i dont have access to another computer at the moment i destroyed my windows partion thinking i wouldnt have any problems
[13:08] <bazhang> onaip, sudo nano
[13:08] <a5h15h> skyw00lker, doesnt work
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> ronr_: hat script references a file /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions which does not exist on Ubuntu boxes. Comment out that line.  source: http://wiki.vpslink.com/LAMBDA_Server_on_Ubuntu_6.06
[13:08] <bazhang> justaguy92, with a cd? no
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> ronr_: its not needed
[13:09] <bazhang> justaguy92, try unetbootin for a live usb though
[13:09] <skyw00lker> a5h15h, really? :/ any plans for support ?
[13:09] <ronr_> ActionParsnip: okay, thanks. I'll try it out.
[13:11] <justaguy92> bazhang, my dad took all the usb drives with him on his business trip, i do got 2 cd drives however and one is a usb-cd-drive is there any idea of how i can burn the iso again but while on live?
[13:11] <osse> If I run 'gnome-terminal -e vim' or 'gnome-terminal -e screen' will the command I specified be executed directly, or will it be exactly as if I wrote it myself afterwards, i.e. it runs inside bash inside gnome-terminal?
[13:11] <onaip> bazhang:  nano worked. . .  thanks for ur help
[13:11] <bazhang> justaguy92, you have an iso on the hdd?
[13:11] <justaguy92> bazhang, i just downloaded one
[13:12] <bazhang> justaguy92, with an additional usb optical drive could work, I've never tried so can't say for sure
[13:12] <justaguy92> bazhang, im going to give it a shot
[13:12] <ozzmosis> osse: it runs directly
[13:13] <ozzmosis> osse: at least when I try it here
[13:13] <ozzmosis> osse: since when you exit vim you don't get a shell prompt and the window closes
[13:13] <ozzmosis> osse: presumably you could've tested that yourself though...
[13:13] <Guest69325> why do i keep getting these striped lines on my panel in gnome 3..????
[13:14] <bazhang> Guest69325, ask the PPA maintainer as its not supported here
[13:14] <osse> ozzmosis, yes, when I exit the program I specified gnome-terminal also exits. But I was thinking maybe gnome-terminal was "smart" and guessed that was what I wanted, so that it actually did run bash but exited that as well automatically.
[13:14] <Guest69325> great help this ubuntu chat is..lol..NOT

[13:18] <qin> skyw00lker:  <skyw00lker > a5h15h, check preferences <--- WHAT PREFERENCES?
[13:19] <a5h15h> It seems changing the resolution also affects the grub menu & bootsplash image?
[13:19] <ozzmosis> osse: ah I see... no, I don't think it does that

[13:22] <qin> a5h15h: menu.lst do not look on-time, you 8.10?
[13:23] <a5h15h> qin, 10.04
[13:23] <osse> ozzmosis, actually I think I confirmed that it doesn
[13:23] <Dr_Willis> !grub2
[13:23] <qin> a5h15h: So follow link, with framebuffer you will set it in grub, just need driver.
[13:24] <Condoulo> I have a question concerning the latest batch of updates. I noitced when I last updated there was a few updates to xorg packages. Then when I try booting up this morning, it crashes and automatically restarts the system once it gets to the point of loading GDM. Am I the only one to have gotten this issue in the past couple days?
[13:24] <qin> a5h15h: Why do you not have grub2???
[13:24] <Condoulo> Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit
[13:24] <Dr_Willis> if he upgraded since befor 9.10  he might still have grub1... but thats scary. :)
[13:25] <osse> ozzmosis, actually I think I confirmed that it doesn't. Inside gnome-terminal I ran 'top', and checked the output of 'ps'. top was connected to pts/3, the same as a bash instance. When I ran 'gnome-terminal -c top', top was connected to pts/4 but there was no bash instance connected to the same. I wonder why I didn't think of that before :)
[13:25] <johannes81> is there any kind soul that would help a newby ubuntu user with some much needed help...(preferably on skype voice) ^ ^
[13:25] <SAngeli> Hi, am trying to install NX on latest ubuntu desktop11.04 I have issues with dependecies (libaudiofile0 which seems that it whould be installed as part of Open.source SGI audio file library) I am following NX instrutions on how to install. How to solve dependencies issues? is there a way to just let ubuntu install it? This is what I am following:
[13:25] <SAngeli> please help-.
[13:25] <Dr_Willis> johannes81:  state the issue..  would be a good idea. :)
[13:27] <qin> johannes81: We do not skype, we ssh. What is problem?
[13:27] <lotuspsychje> anyone knows a script or a package to automount ntfs at boot?
[13:27] <Dr_Willis> lotuspsychje:  just put the proper entry in your /etc/fstab
[13:27] <Dr_Willis> !ntfs
[13:27] <Condoulo> I would like some help regarding the fact I cannot seem to boot into Ubuntu 11.04 anymore as it crashes and reboots at the point it gets to loading GDM.
[13:27] <johannes81> yeah i will in due time =) im asking first cuz i would rather have private chat or a skype voice chat session...cuz i have concentration problems and dyslexia...hard for me to chat in this open chat =)
[13:28] <Dr_Willis> lotuspsychje:  install the ntfs-config app and it acn auto add it i think
[13:28] <mrsunshine> hmm just updated to the new release and well ... the graphics performance sucks badly ... what is wrong :/
[13:28] <mrsunshine> worked fine before update
[13:28] <qin> Condoulo: What about failsafe? or just console?
[13:28] <SAngeli> Is FreeNX  the same as nomachine? Would it be better to opt for FreeNX, rather?
[13:28] <naxa> is there a way to autogenerate a new (updated) fstab?
[13:28] <lotuspsychje> tnx for the last Dr_willis
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> naxa:  updated for what? ive never seen any apps other thebn ntfs-config to work on the fstab
[13:29] <naxa> Dr_Willis, nor did I, however I manually updated my partition table for sure :)
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> it pays to learn how to mange the fstab.  just in case of emergancy
[13:29] <Condoulo> qin: I can get into failsafe. The biggest change I can observe is there were xorg updates yesterday. So, I guess including the fact I have a Radeon HD 5750 using fglrx would help.
[13:29] <naxa> Dr_Willis, and fstab was generated when i first installed ubuntu somehow, there must be a way to do it (i could do it manually but i don't want)
[13:30] <ozzmosis> osse: another way is to run pstree
[13:30] <qin> Condoulo: Yes, first step would be to remove driver.
[13:30] <Dr_Willis> naxa:  never seen a 'regenerate fstab' tool. Never really needed one. If  i add a new HD. i add a proper line.  There might be some apps that can do it. but ive never noticed one mentioned in here.
[13:30] <lotuspsychje> Dr_willis: i have ntfs-config already installed, should it be configed somewhere?
[13:31] <naxa> Dr_Willis, ok thanks for the info then :)
[13:31] <Condoulo> qin: Remove and Purge?
[13:31] <Dr_Willis> lotuspsychje:  did you run ntfs-config ?
[13:31] <naxa> Dr_Willis, how does the installer do it?
[13:31] <Dr_Willis> lotuspsychje:  its all handled by the /etc/fstab
[13:31] <Dr_Willis> naxa:  proberly some script makes it from your  input information
[13:31] <lotuspsychje> Dr_willis: yes but after asking root pass doesnt show
[13:31] <mrsunshine> gah, where is the settings etc located in this new stupid ui :/
[13:31] <Dr_Willis> lotuspsychje:  fall back to editing it by hand i guess. ntfs-config has been flakey the last few releases.
[13:32] <qin> Condoulo: With jockey, just disable it.
[13:32] <Condoulo> mrsunshine: btw, if you are still around, the Sync to Vsync option in Compiz Fusion seems to be causing the graphics performance issue for a lot of people when going to 11.04. If you use proprietary ATI or nVidia drivers, you should be fine just using the Sync to Vsync option in there and not in Compiz. Installing CCsm should allow you to get to that setting.
[13:32] <stimpie> I have somehow removed my workspace switcher from the unity launcher, how to I restore that?
[13:32] <lotuspsychje> Dr_willis: ok tnx for support
[13:32] <MonkeyDust> what's the command command again to view the progression of a large file copying?
[13:32] <Condoulo> qin: I can't get to a GUI, thats the problem I'm having right now. It automatically crashes and reboots the moment GDM starts up.
[13:33] <mrsunshine> Condoulo, humm where do i find that option =)
[13:33] <osse> ozzmosis, nice. thanks for the tip
[13:33] <qin> Condoulo: jockey-text (might not work well in console)
[13:35] <Dr_Willis> stimpie:  you could try the command 'unity --reset' that will reset all unity settings back to defaults
[13:35] <Dr_Willis> If you want to reset Unity (this will only reset the Unity settings in CompizConfig Settings Manager and leave the other CCSM settings intact), open a terminal (or press ALT + F2) and enter:
[13:35] <Dr_Willis> from ---> http://www.webupd8.org/2011/04/how-to-reset-unity-launcher-icons-or.html
[13:36] <Condoulo> mrsunshine: go to the Ubuntu Software Center and search for CCSM, and install that. Then launch CCSM, go to the OpenGL settings, and UnCheck the Sync to VBlank option.
[13:36] <saliak> if i plug in a usb keyboard and the dmsg log says "generic-usb 0003:413C:2003.0006: input,hidraw1: USB HID v1.10 Keyboard [Dell Dell USB Keyboard] on usb-0000:00:1d.3-1/input0" where would i find the file that input from it is mapped to?  if i cat /dev/hidraw1 i just get garbage out

[13:49] <abhinavmehta> guys which is the best Audio/Mp3 Tagger for ubuntu....open even for paid apps....any choices...?
[13:50] <uranellus> abhinavmehta: with automatic tag detection?
[13:50] <Condoulo> seemed like booting into the recovery console and installing the new ATI drivers fixed my situation.
[13:50] <abhinavmehta> yes
[13:51] <alienn> Hi,
[13:51] <uranellus> abhinavmehta: had good experiences with picard .. uses musicbrainz ..

[13:51] <alienn> I have an intel onboard series 4 graphics card
[13:51] <uranellus> abhinavmehta: but amarock used to have nice features ..
[13:52] <abhinavmehta> uranellus: so anything for lyrics too..?
[13:52] <Taravel> hi, I tried to search a program in the Ubuntu Software Center but it shows me only the symbol of searching.
[13:52] <alienn> When I move windows around it is all choppy... And I have no desktop effects anymore.
[13:53] <uranellus> abhinavmehta: amarock, possibly .. be aware that it is kde based though ..
[13:53] <uranellus> alienn: please dont use linebreaks instead of proper punctiation .. lost track of your question/problem already ;)
[13:54] <abhinavmehta> uranellus: I tried amarock...I doesnt feel it upto my expectation..

[13:56] <uranellus> abhinavmehta: had used it in the old (1.4) days .. havent checked since .. for lyrics .. no idea ..
[13:56] <philinux> alienn: is this with unity or classic desktop
[13:57] <alienn> philinux: This is with unity
[13:57] <user12> MonkeyDust: I dont mind a philosophicalanswer
[13:57] <abhinavmehta> uranellus: not a problem...I'll wgo for a paid app TuneUp on Mac-Apple...
[13:57] <abhinavmehta> uranellus: thank you once again friend..!

[14:04] <uranellus> user12: try asking in #debian .. but find out what sort of packages where hosted there first .. otherwise, they might be clueless just the same ..
[14:04] <Iedojr> I need help to make my atheros ar2413 works in Ubuntu 10.04, but i don't know how

[14:09] <Kingsy> if you connect to a network drive.. it appears "mounted" in the Places dropdown under "Network" how do you "unmount" it?
[14:09] <wip> 11.04 Gnome have a important bug: http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/13146 = This is likely due to a broken window manager which claims to support _NET_REQUEST_FRAME_EXTENTS, but does not actually implement it.
[14:09] <Guest35078> Hi, I've just upgraded to 11.04 and am getting black screen flashes; it seems to be causwed by the nvidia powermizer changing performance modes.
[14:09] <wip> is there a irc for developers of ubuntu?
[14:09] <Kingsy> not sure if my terminology is correct there.. but you get the drift
[14:09] <Kingsy> I hope :)
[14:09] <uranellus> wip: #ubuntu+1
[14:09] <wip> #ubuntu+1
[14:09] <wip> oups :)
[14:10] <ActionPa1snip> Kingsy: if you right click it you can unmount it
[14:10] <Guest35078> I only seem to be able to find info about changing the perflevels rather than perfmodes; my 8400GS only seems to have one perflevel
[14:10] <devish> is there a way by which I can draw more part of band width in a shared router ;)
[14:10] <Kingsy> hmm
[14:10] <ActionPa1snip> devish: if your router has traffic shaping then sure, usually routers manage this manually so as to not starve other hosts
[14:10] <uranellus> devish: turn on QoS in that router .. but i guess your not asking for this ..
[14:10] <Kingsy> ActionPa1snip: oh yeah I see it, in "computer" thanks
[14:11] <skyw00lker> Guest35078, Your graphic card can be broken
[14:11] <skyw00lker> its a shitty card that breaks
[14:12] <ActionPa1snip> Kingsy: np, upi cam also run:  mount    to see the mount point, then run:  sudo umount /mount/point
[14:12] <devish> traffic shaping cant be done
[14:12] <Kingsy> ActionPa1snip: hmm for some reason the network drive wont remount.. it said it has timed out, so unmounted and tried again.. same thing.. can you think why? or do I just need to restart samba?
[14:12] <devish> my friends use torrent all the time so I am not able to browser
[14:13] <Zolorado> hi there! My wifi is very-very slow on Kubuntu 11.04, somebody has teh same problem?
[14:13] <Guest35078> As in all 8400gs are crap, or my one in particular has something wrong with it?
[14:13] <ActionPa1snip> Kingsy: worth a try
[14:13] <bastidrazor> Guest35078: the 8000 series of nvidia was horrible :(
[14:13] <skyw00lker> laptop ?
[14:13] <skyw00lker> Guest35078,
[14:13] <skyw00lker> ?
[14:13] <ActionPa1snip> Guest35078: better than my 6150
[14:13] <babalu> hello guys
[14:14] <babalu> need help plz my ubuntu 10.10 wont start  stays on a black screen whit some lines on it
[14:14] <Guest35078> it seems to be good enough for what I do when in maximum performance mode, it's just irritating when it keeps switching mode; is there nothing I can do to jam it in max perf mode?
[14:15] <ActionPa1snip> babalu: add the boot option: nomodeset
[14:16] <babalu> ActionPa1snip could you explain me how to do that plz
[14:16] <skyw00lker> nvidia settings have PowerMizer
[14:16] <skyw00lker> I guess you could set it to maximum performence
[14:16] <Kingsy> ActionPa1snip: hmm that didnt work either..
[14:16] <ActionPa1snip> !bootoption | babalu
[14:16] <skyw00lker> Guest35078,
[14:16] <Kingsy> damn I could see this drive earlier..
[14:16] <Kingsy> I can see all other network drives aswell
[14:17] <Guest35078> that's what I need help with; I can't find an option to keep it in max perf. I can make it go there by opening an hd video, but that's a bit impractical
[14:17] <skyw00lker> have you gone into nvidia-settings ?
[14:18] <Guest35078> yep
[14:18] <skyw00lker> Nvidia-settings->Powermizer
[14:18] <babalu> ty
[14:18] <skyw00lker> change adaptive to Performence
[14:19] <ActionPa1snip> skyw00lker: sweet, i'll do the same when I get in :)
[14:19] <ActionPa1snip> skyw00lker: thanks
[14:19] <Guest35078> it doesn't give me an option, it just says "Adaptive Clocking: Enabled" without a way to change it

[14:23] <alienn> I already switched to classic mode but the problem is the same on unity and classic.
[14:23] <ActionPa1snip> Zolorado: hardware manufacturers put more effort in windows driver
[14:23] <alienn> I don't know why I always have problems with these damn intel graphic cards. They are supposed to "just work"...
[14:23] <oCean> Taravel: you can remove all list files by running    udo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf   then rebuild by  sudo apt-get update
[14:23] <ActionPa1snip> Zolorado: can you give a pastebin of:  sudo lshw -C network; uname -a; lsb_release -a; rfkill list

[14:24] <eiriksvin> et*.x86
[14:24] <ActionPa1snip> eiriksvin: for folders use:  sudo rm -r foldername
[14:24] <ozzmosis> MonkeyDust: the client is already installed :)
[14:25] <SAngeli> MonkeyDust, is already installed
[14:25] <MonkeyDust> ozzmosis: i was too quick to answer :)
[14:25] <alienn> edbian: Well if that would be the case I would not need to ask why perfomance in 11.04 is far worse than in 10.10...
[14:25] <alienn> ;)
[14:25] <edbian> eiriksvin: what?
[14:25] <SAngeli> maybe firewall issu
[14:25] <eiriksvin> I installed Enemy-Territory and they told me to sudo it, like a dummy I did
[14:25] <edbian> alienn: What does performance have to do with ease of installation?
[14:26] <eiriksvin> now I need to update it
[14:26] <edbian> eiriksvin: oh, there ya go.
[14:26] <eiriksvin> is there a way to remove these sudo only permissions?
[14:26] <alienn> edbian: Easy of installation includes an acceptable perfomance after the installation and that is not the case...

[14:27] <ActionPa1snip> alienn: some intel chips need xorg.conf to work well. Can you pastebin the output of:  sudo lshw -C display; lsb_release -a
[14:27] <edbian> eiriksvin: You can change the permissions using chmod / chown.  You can just delete the files with rm.  You can remove folders using rm -r    The system is set up such that you should not have to delete folders / files as root very often.  Be careful with these commands!
[14:27] <edbian> eiriksvin: Something like sudo chmod -R 777 /path/to/your/et/folder/
[14:27] <ActionPa1snip> Zolorado: is it a usb based wifi?

[14:30] <ActionPa1snip> alienn: is it a branded pc or laptop?

[14:31] <ActionPa1snip> Zolorado: you could try setting the faster rate with iwconfig
[14:31] <Zolorado> ActionPa1snip: thanks a lot! But what to do with this patch (I'm new to Linux)? Just type into Console?
[14:31] <JediMaster> edbian: already tried, it's not a package name, however the file already exists
[14:32] <eiriksvin> they know click to start stuff
[14:32] <JediMaster> edbian: it's in /usr/bin/kstartupconfig4
[14:32] <ActionPa1snip> Zolorado: no, you need the source for the driver, then aply the patch, then compile

[14:43] <goiboi> because you don't know, i inform
[14:43] <Pici> goiboi: This channel is for Ubuntu support only. Plesae stay on topic.
[14:43] <ActionPa1snip> SAngeli: you don't need to be in a special group, the account you connect with just needs to be active
[14:43] <SAngeli> edbian, I usually install ubuntu or other distro and am able to ssh.  Process is available too.
[14:44] <alienn> I'll be right back <-- rebooting
[14:44] <rumpe1> edbian, hmm... ok. maybe its just for the daemon
[14:44] <Guest68866> Sangeli want you want to do with ssh ?
[14:44] <goiboi> like sudo
[14:44] <ActionPa1snip> SAngeli: can you ssh to localhost?
[14:44] <edbian> rumpe1: No clue
[14:44] <pythoned> Hello,  what is the correct term when talking about the latest version and not the LTS one. What should I say, non-lts?normal version or what?
[14:44] <SAngeli> I just get connection refused. I connect over LAN
[14:44] <ActionPa1snip> SAngeli: do you have a lot of firewall rules?
[14:45] <ActionPa1snip> goiboi: sudo is great for accountability and control
[14:45] <edbian> pythoned: Latest version   usually does it (11.04 btw)
[14:45] <Guest68866> havr you a ntfs part to share ?
[14:45] <pythoned> edbian,  Thank you! :)
[14:45] <lotuspsychje> ActionPa1snip: i found an easy tool for auto fill in fstab entrys: pysdm
[14:45] <lotuspsychje> it worked now
[14:45] <ActionPa1snip> lotuspsychje: nice :)
[14:45] <JediMaster> edbian: I just got their old password, and entered it into encryptfs... and it mounted the home dir, and kde logs in fine now, so next question, why didn't the encrypted fs change password with the user? and how do I change it to the same as the current password?
[14:45] <SAngeli> I do not see my firewall (as I assume I have to customize it) as am unable to find the gui in gnome menu
[14:45] <edbian> pythoned: sure
[14:45] <Pici> goiboi: Again, This channel is for support not discussion of Ubuntu. If you want to chat, there is #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:45] <ActionPa1snip> lotuspsychje: once you have a good file, back it up ;)
[14:46] <Guest68866> SAngeli : have you a ntfs to share ?
[14:46] <edbian> JediMaster: No idea.  I don't have any experience with encryption.  Glad you fixed it!  You didn't need my help at all
[14:46] <johannes81> can some kind soul that knows allot about samba plz help me in private chat...im getting this might not be your rules or whatever...but i just cant handle this chaos type chat
[14:46] <lotuspsychje> ActionPa1snip: good idea, its nice now all drives automount
[14:46] <ActionPa1snip> lotuspsychje: partitions ;)
[14:46] <lotuspsychje> lol yeah
[14:46] <eiriksvin> why does Enemy Terrotory say I have an Invalid GUID every time I try to connect?
[14:46] <ActionPa1snip> :D
[14:46] <eiriksvin> to a sever :P
[14:46] <SAngeli> I get this error: ssh: connect to host <IP_ADDRESS> port 22: Connection refused
[14:46] <Zolorado> ActionPa1snip: OK, now I downloaded that ar9170usb patch, a diff file... what to do? where can I find the driver file?  in which folder?
[14:47] <SAngeli> I am sure it has to do with firewall.
[14:47] <cheayunCho> 으이
[14:47] <lotuspsychje> !ufw | SAngeli
[14:47] <Guest68866> ifconfig ??
[14:47] <ActionPa1snip> SAngeli: did you change the port it is running on at all?
[14:48] <ActionPa1snip> SAngeli: are you conecting to a PC on your LAN or is it over the web?
[14:48] <SAngeli> ALL I HAVE TO DO is stop firewall service for first time. How to do so? /etc/init.d/ ??
[14:48] <qin> SAngeli: Is your ssh server running, on server: sudo netstat -tulp
[14:48] <ActionPa1snip> SAngeli: sudo service iptables stop   sounds reasonable to stop iptables
[14:49] <alvinPH> ActionPa1snip:what USB creator should i use?
[14:49] <MB123789> edbian, sorry delay - had another trying to help me as well - trying to do my gpg verification
[14:50] <SAngeli> may I please aks for firewall service name?
[14:50] <edbian> eiriksvin: Probably because of the command I had you run.  It's a permission problem.  Did you use chown or just chmod?
[14:50] <qin> SAngeli: iptables
[14:51] <MB123789> edbian, mostly frustrated as i successfully did this last night (from scratch) and now i try to do it this morning and keep getting same error message - sure i am doing something dumb, just cannot figure out what it is....
[14:51] <eiriksvin> it runs the game, but when I try to connect to a sever it says I have an invalid GUID
[14:51] <eiriksvin> brb poop-time
[14:51] <ActionPa1snip> alvinPH: any are fine
[14:52] <lotuspsychje> lol
[14:52] <SAngeli> qin, I do not have in /etc/init.d iptables
[14:52] <SAngeli> what do I have to find for stopping the service? qin
[14:52] <noob_> hi
[14:52] <edbian> SAngeli: It is always running.  You can check if there are any rules by looking at sudo iptables -L
[14:52] <gargille> Hello everyone. ı have a problem on boot that I have not been able to fix for the last 3 days. can anyone help me please? When I login x crasses and I get the login screen again. I can login form the console though. PM me please.
[14:52] <edbian> noob_: Hello
[14:53] <kiamo> is there a chinese ubuntu channel?
[14:53] <alvinPH> how can i install a .bin packager?
[14:53] <lotuspsychje> !cn
[14:53] <qin> SAngeli: 1. on server: sudo netstat -tulp (to see if ssh server works), 2. sudo service iptables stop
[14:53] <SAngeli> it is running but I need to know.>>> what is the command to STOP this service?
[14:54] <qin> SAngeli: firestarter?
[14:54] <SAngeli> qin, I do /etc/init.d/<WHAT DO i WRINTE HERE?>
[14:55] <ikonia> SAngeli: you write without using caps please
[14:55] <Ahmuck> i've lost scrollbars on evolution.  is this part of the gui overhaul, to hide scrollbars?
[14:55] <SAngeli> /etc/init.d<name of the service> stop
[14:55] <edbian> SAngeli: You cannot stop iptables.  You can only check if it has any rules
[14:55] <SAngeli> ikonia, sure
[14:55] <SAngeli> I did not know I cannot stop it.
[14:55] <SAngeli> how to then add ssh to iptable?
[14:55] <ikonia> you can stop iptables
[14:56] <edbian> ikonia: really?  How?
[14:56] <ikonia> (as a process, not a daemon)
[14:56] <silv3r_m00n> I have a zip , need to password protect it , how ?
[14:56] <edbian> Ahmuck: They're like this now:  http://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_1QSDkzYY2vc/Tabh_sz08gI/AAAAAAAAD-w/0ZImfMyzks0/overlay-scrollbars-classic.png
[14:56] <ikonia> edbian: just flush the rules, that's all the init process does
[14:56] <noob_> а тут Русские есть?
[14:56] <SAngeli> ikonia, May I please learn how to?
[14:56] <maco> !ru noob_
[14:56] <maco> !ru | noob_
[14:56] <ActionPa1snip> SAngeli: i'm not seeing it listed after: sudo service     but if you haven't manually set up rules then it is allowing everything already
[14:57] <noob_> чо?
[14:57] <edbian> SAngeli: Did you install openssh-server  ??
[14:57] <SAngeli> ok, I take a break as am very frustrated.
[14:57] <SAngeli> this is the first time I install ubuntu and am unable to ssh.
[14:57] <SAngeli> I will resume in a few
[14:57] <SAngeli> soory
[14:57] <qin> edbian: Propably not.
[14:57] <ikonia> SAngeli: have you tested it locally
[14:57] <ikonia> SAngeli: eg, ssh localhost on the machine ?
[14:57] <ActionPa1snip> silv3r_m00n: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=60548
[14:58] <Ahmuck> edbian: yes, i hate em
[14:58] <edbian> Ahmuck: :)  ha
[14:58] <Ahmuck> edbian: is there a way to get the old one back
[14:58] <SAngeli> ikonia, yes, and I do get the same error
[14:58] <edbian> Ahmuck: You can use ubuntu classic.  Not sure if there is a way to change just the scrollbars
[14:58] <ikonia> SAngeli: then it's not a firewall
[14:58] <Ahmuck> i'm using ubuntu classice edbian
[14:58] <qin> SAngeli: Sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[14:59] <qin> SAngeli: !!!!!!
[14:59] <qin> *sudo
[14:59] <edbian> Ahmuck: Then it sounds like there isn't
[14:59] <SAngeli> I am tired to say I do have installed already openssh-server!
[14:59] <Ahmuck> can i say bad things now
[14:59] <ikonia> SAngeli: then it's not running if you can't ssh locally
[14:59] <SAngeli> ok
[14:59] <qin> SAngeli: sudo service ssh start
[14:59] <qin> SAngeli: (it is server)
[15:00] <edbian> SAngeli: You have to restart the machine or start it manually using sudo service ssh start
[15:00] <Ahmuck> it doesn't appear its the same for all applications, evolutiion has the "problem", konversation doesn't
[15:00] <SAngeli> stop for now. I will resume later. I do not know how to say it in other languages: I do see the px I do see the service running I do see the openssh-client and server installed what else to I have to repeate saying?
[15:00] <SAngeli> one sec please.
[15:01] <edbian> Ahmuck: It's only gtk apps
[15:01] <qin> SAngeli: THEN (on server): sudo netstat -tulp (to see if ssh is listing on port 22 and what ip, should be: *:22)
[15:01] <SAngeli> it was the server that was missing. the client of openssh-client was installed
[15:01] <SAngeli> I apologize but got frustrated
[15:01] <edbian> ...
[15:02] <edbian> Glad we could help
[15:02] <SAngeli> also pkg software displayed to me that it was instalelled instead it was not.
[15:02] <qin> SAngeli: Now you know ;)
[15:02] <SAngeli> I can now ssh.
[15:02] <SAngeli> Sorry again

[15:12] <dr3af> hello,i got a problem. I try to speak on skype but friend cant hear me. I tried on windows and its ok. The wierd thing is that i can hear a little something on the background, for example if i open a movie he can hear it,but the sound is very low. I checked the volume of my mic and seems to be ok..
[15:14] <Gargille> Hello everyone. Anyone proficient with the login stuff? I have a problem I have not been able to fix for three days now.
[15:15] <squig> Gargille, ask and some one may answer
[15:16] <shugart> Is it still a bug that in the vpn connections it shows the connection as checked and active, but it is by no means active, or even generating logs ?
[15:16] <Gargille> I cant login through to Gnome. it kicks me out to the login screen. I can login through a console though. and the machine was working fine for the last three years.
[15:16] <compdoc> cant login through to Gnome how?
[15:16] <tomek_> how to switch between kde and gnome in ubuntu?
[15:17] <Gargille> Compdoc. I boot. and see the login screen. I enter my password and username. I see some letters on the screen and the nvidia logo real quick and then I am back at the login screen.
[15:18] <Ghost_Who_Walks> it's raining here guys :)
[15:18] <Gargille> actually I can not login to any gui. just the consoles through ctrlalt1
[15:18] <compdoc> Gargille, that statement "I can login through a console though" got me confused. what do you mean by console then?
[15:18] <dr3af> any help please?
[15:19] <edbian> dr3af: Just state your question
[15:19] <qin> tomek_: switch? you mean at one session? need logout/login (and choose in bottom bar your session) or start second X
[15:19] <Gargille> compdoc. at the login screen I can not login. so I do CTRL-ALT-1 and go to a console. I can login there fine.
[15:19] <dr3af>  I try to speak on skype but friend cant hear me. I tried on windows and its ok. The wierd thing is that i can hear a little something on the background, for example if i open a movie he can hear it,but the sound is very low. I checked the volume of my mic and seems to be ok..

[15:20] <dp> what's the graphical package manager ubuntu is looking to use to replace synaptic in the future?
[15:20] <Gargille> compdoc, this computer was working fine a couple of days ago. :/
[15:20] <maco> dp: software center
[15:21] <dmtarmey> ?
[15:21] <maco> dp: synaptic will still be installable for those who want that level of power yet dont use the command line, but software center covers the needs of most users
[15:21] <grrizd72> Anybody delt with installing Google Earth on 11.04?
[15:21] <dr3af> qin: the problem is that when i receive a message on facebook he hears the *beep*....
[15:22] <Gargille> compdoc, I did a sudo apt-get update hoping it fixed the problem but it did not.
[15:22] <qin> dr3af: your mic is hook up wrongly, need to set it and test it.
[15:22] <tomek_> who knows good graphics software for linux, I have gimp but its very simple ...
[15:22] <dp> maco: thanks
[15:22] <dr3af> qin: what u mean hook up wrongly?and how to "set it and test it"?
[15:23] <phixxor> what does this do [how does it work (does it work) ]
[15:23] <phixxor> http://lomat.tumblr.com/post/6075409090/http-how-to-speed-up-the-internet-on-ubuntu
[15:23] <Gargille> dr3af, did you check the mixer?
[15:23] <qin> dr3af: Means either there isa swich, or wrong card, or volume levels.
[15:23] <compdoc> Gargille, at my login screen, hitting CTRL-ALT-1 does nothing, but hitting alt-f1, alt-f2, etc gives me a tty session (command prompt)
[15:24] <compdoc> Gargille, which OS is it?
[15:24] <qin> compdoc: in tty1: xinit -- :1 vt8
[15:24] <qin> compdoc: Do you get to term?
[15:24] <Gargille> ok it is a tty session then. on mine it is a ctrl-alt-F1 F2 F3 etc..
[15:24] <compdoc> qin, this is Gargille's problem
[15:24] <Polah> What would be the best filesystem for both Ubuntu and Windows; NTFS or ext3?
[15:24] <qin> Gargille: in tty1: xinit -- :1 vt8
[15:25] <Gargille> ubuntu before the last one. 10.10 I believe.
[15:25] <mattyh88> hey, shouldn't a directory (in /home) be automatically created when I craete a new system user?
[15:25] <rww> Polah: NTFS.  Is that true/safe? How does it work? http://lomat.tumblr.com/post/6075409090/http-how-to-speed-up-the-internet-on-ubuntu
[15:27] <qin> Gargille: Good, 1. check in tty1 for errors (Alt-Ctrl-F1)
[15:28] <mattyh88> edbian: useradd
[15:28] <qin> Gargille: 2. in vt8 (Alt-Ctrl-F8): gedit (ansd check for errors in both)
[15:28] <Koobilitoo> useradd sounds like something yoda teaching  ubuntu might say lol
[15:28] <p3rp> is there a way i could shorten my boot process?
[15:28] <Gargille> qin, (EE) microsoft nano transceiver v2.0: failed to initialize for relative axes
[15:29] <Koobilitoo> Good Q uestion p3rp i want to know too
[15:29] <qin> Gargille: Is it Wubi???
[15:29] <edbian> mattyh88: If you look at the man page for useradd you'll see it is a low lever tool.  It recommends you use adduser   If you use useradd you need to create the home folder yourself manually
[15:29] <genii-around> p3rp: As a one-time option, you can append the word: profile to the line in grub which loads the kernel. It will try to streamline which sysvinit scripts can be loaded in parallel
[15:29] <mattyh88> edbian: okay thx ;)
[15:30] <qin> p3rp: Remove all not needed sevices
[15:30] <Gargille> qin, no it is dualboot with an old winxp. but ubuntu was a clean install. I was trying to install a wifi usb dongle at the time. it had crashed then too.
[15:30] <Polah> p3rp, Koobilitoo: Run a more lightweight system, have less startup programs, invest in an SSD
[15:30] <joel135> p3rp: if you're looking for hardware as well, try an ssd drive
[15:30] <Joelio> I've got a seriosu issue with getting compiz working on 11.04 with Nvidia 7300. I've got OpenGL / GLX etc.. all enabled. When I do a compiz --replace however, I lose all windows and ust get a background essentially
[15:30] <lotuspsychje> polah: ssd rocks indeed
[15:30] <dmtarmey> hello ?
[15:30] <qin> p3rp: Do not use X nonsense
[15:30] <Polah> lotuspsychje, tad expensive though.
[15:31] <p3rp> i did remove some services but its still persistent,i have to remove my battery just to restart coz it freezes
[15:31] <lotuspsychje> polah: depends on what brand/speed
[15:31] <Gargille> qin, gedit is running. I can see it on the screen.
[15:31] <p3rp> and the i get to a busy box
[15:31] <lotuspsychje> polah: i have an 8gig transcend slc ssd for 90 euro
[15:31] <Koobilitoo> TY i know going into startup applications is an option
[15:31] <qin> Gargille: kill gedit and: startx
[15:31] <edbian> mattyh88: sure
[15:32] <Koobilitoo> i dunno how to edit grub
[15:32] <p3rp> i wish i could get an ssd but this one is an old hp dv6500
[15:32] <Gargille> qin, not authorised to run startx. should I run with sudo??
[15:32] <dmtarmey> does this chat room support jolicloud
[15:32] <Polah> lotuspsychje, I guess is you get a really small one just for the operating system it's not too bad.
[15:32] <p3rp> sorry cant afford ssd..
[15:32] <lotuspsychje> polah: yes indeed i combine regular sata for storage and ssd for the Os
[15:33] <qin> Gargille: No, try in in tty2
[15:33] <Koobilitoo> SSD is faster then the 15K rpm drives? probably just curious tho
[15:33] <ippon> join#minsk
[15:33] <Gargille> qin, is this issue of not being able to login through the gui because of a messed up hardware install??
[15:33] <lotuspsychje> Koobilitoo: yes its very fast
[15:33] <joseph_> what can i use to examine the status of a running raid 0+1 ?
[15:33] <Koobilitoo> ok but they are pricey
[15:33] <qin> Gargille: Cannot imagine it yes, but in general yes.
[15:33] <RA_drc> hi, i'm trying to use my macbook's webcam with vlc, but my webcam isnt showing up as an option in vlc.  however, the system log viewer shows that ubuntu knows *something* is plugged in.  do i need to install a driver for this?
[15:34] <Koobilitoo> unless your wealthy :D
[15:34] <wols_> Koobilitoo: so are 15k drives :)
[15:34] <qin> *yet
[15:34] <zxiest> Hello =)
[15:34] <reya276> How can I get my dell M1330 laptop to move past the "*checking battery state" on boot up(running Ubuntu 10.10)?
[15:34] <Koobilitoo> not as much as a ssd
[15:34] <Gargille> qin, fatal server error. server already active for display 0
[15:34] <lotuspsychje> Koobilitoo: for me its worth it
[15:34] <zxiest> What does "Too many levels of symbolic links" means?
[15:34] <zxiest> mean*
[15:34] <qin> Gargille: Right, in white box: exit
[15:34] <dasadsdasdssssda> h
[15:34] <dasadsdasdssssda> hi
[15:34] <qin> Gargille: and: startx
[15:35] <lotuspsychje> Polah: i run natty 64 bit on ssd, very fast
[15:35] <Koobilitoo> oh Kewl Lotus
[15:35] <compdoc> my mythbuntu 11.04 runs on a SSD - works great
[15:35] <lotuspsychje> Koobilitoo: try youtube ssd startups on 64 bit
[15:35] <Koobilitoo> being a dual core pc does that automatically qualify it as 64?
[15:36] <ActionPa1snip> zxiest: symbolic links are like windows shortcuts but actually make the OS think the data is really there, it doesn't see a shortcut
[15:36] <ActionPa1snip> Koobilitoo: no
[15:36] <lotuspsychje> compdoc: nice!
[15:36] <wols_> Koobilitoo: there are a few dualcore cpus that are not 64bit capable. few, but they exist
[15:36] <compdoc> Koobilitoo, they tend to be these days
[15:36] <ActionPa1snip> Koobilitoo: I have a dual core laptop which is 32bit
[15:36] <zxiest> ActionPa1snip got it... So what's "too many levels" ?
[15:36] <ActionPa1snip> Koobilitoo: websearch to find out what arch the CPU is
[15:36] <petrolman> Why do the ubuntu developer recommend the 32 bit version of Ubuntu in general?
[15:36] <Koobilitoo> i guess that manufactures website would let you know
[15:36] <zxiest> Is a link linking to a link that's linking back to it?

[15:37] <lotuspsychje> compdoc: mythbuntu also unity default?
[15:37] <ActionPa1snip> zxiest: not sure there dude, possibly too many subfolders, or long paths etc. Never met that one before
[15:37] <coz_> lotuspsychje,  ooo I dont the answer to that one
[15:37] <Koobilitoo> as far as web browser for me Chromium seems to work the fastest
[15:37] <zxiest> ActionPa1snip alright.. no biggie =) Thanks man =)
[15:37] <ActionPa1snip> petrolman: some 3rd party developers only make 32bio
[15:37] <Koobilitoo> First It was  firefox then swiftfox then Chromum
[15:38] <compdoc> lotuspsychje, mythbuntu doesnt use unity. And you dont have to use unity on the desktop Ubuntu either
[15:38] <saliak> Anyone have experience with USB HID devices and getting input from them?  I have a barcode scanner that outputs scans to stdin when i'm logged into the computer at the terminal.  However, I need to capture that stream from an ssh session.  I  can get the raw input from /dev/hidraw0, but it's garbage.  I have a feeling there should be some way to get it the same way it looks at the terminal.  How would I make a pipe from what is normally going t
[15:38] <saliak> terminal to my ssh session?
[15:38] <Koobilitoo> Chromium I mean
[15:38] <ActionPa1snip> Koobilitoo: same here, chromium daily + 64bit flash + 64bit java :)
[15:38] <Koobilitoo> altho you know Action Srware made a redo of chromium which is even faster yet
[15:39] <magicj> I am getting the message: Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display - how do I fix this - all works as far as I can see EXCEPT the screen saver, which is when this happens
[15:39] <ActionPa1snip> Koobilitoo: got a link?
[15:39] <Koobilitoo> going to look right now
[15:39] <petrolman> ActionPa1snip, but 32 bit programs also run on a 64 bit system, hm
[15:40] <squig> is there a console ip setting program (or is that vi) like setup on a redhat/fedora system
[15:40] <lotuspsychje> petrolman: i can only reccomend ubuntu 64 bit
[15:40] <magicj> saliak: I use usb devices all the time - I believe that you are getting the scan codes not the keys so they are not garbage, you just need to convert from scan code to key
[15:40] <jeremym> no matter what i do i get this: iles list file for package `libfreetype6' is missing final newline
[15:40] <jeremym> dpkg: ../../src/packages.c:252: process_queue: Assertion `!queuelen' failed.
[15:40] <jeremym> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg exited unexpectedly
[15:41] <Koobilitoo> did u get that ActionPalsnip?
[15:41] <saliak> magicj: i see. is that a standard thing?  there's no documentation that came with the reader.  what would i search for to learn how to do this?
[15:41] <Gargille> qin, OH CRAP! I have a flash drive on a usb. reboot.
[15:41] <ubuntu-dum> i want to change my resolution in my tty screens, im using ubuntu 11.04 on a acer z5600.. the resolution of my screen is 1920x1080 but in tty everything looks small and text doesnt take up whole screen...  help?
[15:42] <magicj> saliak: from my experience - they are all that way because they simulate a keyboard - so there really is no need for documentation
[15:42] <Gargille> qin, compdoc, sorry. this is dumb on my part.
[15:42] <shugart> does network manager not work at all for VPN connections in 11.04 now ?
[15:42] <compdoc> Gargille, stuff happens
[15:42] <magicj> saliak: there are a couple of strange aspects I have found however, some send shift before every alpha chanracted to make them UCS, some don't, etc - just experiment
[15:43] <saliak> magicj: i see.  ok.  so is there a standard translation table?  when i login to a local terminal, it spits out readable ascii, so it must use a us keyboard mapping, right?
[15:43] <qin> ubuntu-dum: setupcon or follow this: http://idyllictux.wordpress.com/2010/04/26/lucidubuntu-10-04-high-resolution-plymouth-virtual-terminal-for-atinvidia-cards-with-proprietaryrestricted-driver/
[15:43] <Gargille> compdoc, qin, I am very sorry. I guess its the three days of trying to get it running.
[15:43] <magicj> saliak: that is the other wird thing about scan codes - just a pain - but realistically just test and see what you get from yours and you will be set
[15:44] <qin> Gargille: ok, what we standing on?
[15:44] <wols_> jeremym: uninstall the package with dpkg, redownload it via a browser and reinstall it with dpkg
[15:44] <saliak> magicj: cool, thanks.
[15:44] <RA_drc> !isight
[15:44] <Gargille> qin, compdoc, ok reboot clean now. I double checked everything. nothing connected. I cant login through the GUI. but ok through the ttys.
[15:45] <jeremym> dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq libfreetype6  but its complaining about dependencies...is there a way to force it to remove and leave the deps?
[15:45] <qin> Gargille: Just: startx
[15:45] <jeremym> i can reinstall the file aftewards
[15:45] <jeremym> er package i mean
[15:46] <compdoc> Gargille, did you install or upgrade the vendor proprietary video card drivers?
[15:46] <Gargille> qin, a startx on tty1 says fatal server error: server is already active for display 0 etc.. I guess thats true as tty8 has the login screen all pinkishpurple. I now hate that color by the way.
[15:47] <Koobilitoo> ok this is what it says
[15:47] <Koobilitoo> data bus width 64 bits
[15:47] <Koobilitoo> address bus width 32 bits
[15:47] <Gargille> compdoc, upgrade. I do a regular update every couple of days. a sudo apt-get update and upgrade.
[15:47] <qin> Gargille: oh, so it runs somwhere, sudo killall Xorg
[15:47] <compdoc> Gargille, the opensource drivers tend to work better for me
[15:48] <Night_Elf> Hello all. If anyone has used apt-offline, I will need some info. At the offline machine, I give:  "apt-offline set signaturefile.sig --install-packages abuse"    What I get in response is: Error: Unable to locate package abuse. FATAL: Something is wrong with the apt system.
[15:48] <Night_Elf> Any ideas ?
[15:48] <jeremym> wols_, i have found --force-depends to turn the dependency errors into warnings but everytime i try to remove the package or any package i get: files list file for package `libfreetype6' is missing final newline and it wont do it
[15:48] <Gargille> qin, compdoc, did a killall. a login screen poped up.
[15:48] <qin> Gargille: And?
[15:49] <wols_> jeremym: go to /var/lib/dpkg/info/libfreetype6.list and add a newline or two at the end
[15:49] <wols_> jeremym: make a backup of the file first
[15:49] <qin> Gargille: Gdm login? Did you login? Is it frozen yet?
[15:49] <jeremym> ok will try that ty
[15:50] <Gargille> qin, nope. I type my password and click unlock but it crashes and I get pushed back to the login screen.
[15:50] <computerx> Hi, is there some way to make a process run slower? I have 3 PCs running ffmpeg solid for about a week, it's a hot day. My CPU is 87 deg, my wife's 75 and the fileserver is beeping at me... I don't want to stop the process....
[15:50] <qin> Gargille: In tty1: sudo service gdm stop
[15:50] <Koobilitoo> get a fan in that room or a small AC
[15:50] <Gargille> qin, It does not freeze. just pops back to the login screen.
[15:50] <qin> Gargille: ^^
[15:50] <wols_> computerx: cgroups for example
[15:50] <wols_> computerx: non trivial to use tho
[15:50] <ResQue> will the mklable command in parted make a new partition or just rename an exsiting one
[15:51] <Polah> computerx, fahrenheit or celsius?
[15:51] <computerx> heh, I have two fans, one pointing at my CPU already...
[15:51] <Gargille> qin, gdm stop/waiting
[15:51] <computerx> Celsius
[15:51] <qin> Gargille: startx
[15:51] <Koobilitoo> u have to circulate the air not keep it in the room
[15:51] <coz_> Gargille,  ooo I cant of a way to run an already running process slower,, fans may be the  solution
[15:51] <computerx> I'm trying to get it out, trust me :p
[15:51] <wols_> computerx: what cpu is this? most modern ones don't like that high temps :)
[15:51] <Polah> Computerx: Don't point it towards your computer, point it away, i.e. the back of the fan is facing your computer
[15:51] <genii-around> !info abuse
[15:51] <rodhash> Hello guys.. I need little help with zic.. my ubuntu boots up with a weird time, like -3h behind the correct.. and just after I log in Gnome my system date changes to the correct... defined by zic on /etc/localtime
[15:52] <computerx> AMD something dual core 5000
[15:53] <computerx> It hit 130 degrees the other week. I didn't notice until it just *stopped*, dead. Power off, gone. My heatsink was full of dust >.>
[15:53] <qin> Gargille: You would want to: cd /var/log/ and focus on dmesg, messages, auth.log. Xorg.0.log, seek for errors and warnings (use less or tail to read it)
[15:53] <Koobilitoo> not good will burn out yer cpu
[15:53] <wols_> computerx: no CPU can hit 130° C
[15:53] <GridCube> D:
[15:53] <genii-around> Night_Elf: Is the multiverse repository enabled on the machine which is fetching the files?
[15:53] <Gargille> qin, (EE) Failed to load module "nvidia" (module does not exist)  ///I had done an uninstall through apt-get of nvidia  AND (EE) [drm] failed to open device
[15:53] <computerx> Perhaps my monitoring is wrong then, however I can only go from what the bios tells me
[15:54] <petrolman> How can I change the icon of a button in the starter panel (Unity)
[15:54] <computerx> It was saying 125 after a restart
[15:54] <Koobilitoo> i think he meant 130 F ?  130 C would be terrible lol
[15:54] <genii-around> Bleh, universe rather
[15:54] <coz_> Gargille,  you may want to check the hard driver temps  which would be more critical than the cpu
[15:54] <Polah> computerx: Are you sure it's not fahrenheit? 130 C is well beyond any processor's maximum operating limits.
[15:54] <qin> Gargille: In tty2: jockey-text -l
[15:54] <computerx> Same as reported with lm-sensors
[15:54] <computerx> So, degrees
[15:55] <Gargille> qin, also something about XKEYBOARD and xkbcomp
[15:55] <qin> computerx: I think record (recorded) was 84 C and some smoke.
[15:55] <computerx> Err, celcius..
[15:55] <saliak> magicj: cool.  i've got the right number of characters now, but the mapping isn't right  yet.
[15:55] <tirhak> hi guys
[15:55] <wols_> computerx: ANY cpu made out of silicon will physically burn out at 120°. no chip made on silicon ever run at 120°C
[15:55] <Gargille> coz_, laptop cool like a brick. thanks. :)
[15:55] <Koobilitoo> Qin LOL wow :D
[15:55] <p3rp> is it a bad idea installing ubuntu without creating partitions on an entire hard drive?
[15:55] <tirhak> i keep getting these need root restricted stuff on installs and everything
[15:55] <wols_> p3rp: not a bad idea
[15:55] <coz_> Gargille,  ok  hope t his works out for you
[15:55] <computerx> Do you think it's adding the internal core temps together?
[15:56] <Night_Elf> genii-around: The online/connected machine has all repositories possible enabled. But the point is that whatever apt-offline says about how things are done, the "set" command is given at the offline/disconnected machine, as this is the entire point. Unless there's an undocumented first step that has to be done and make the offline machine aware of the repositories which it (understandably)misses.
[15:56] <coz_> computerx,  which temps are you looking for specifically?
[15:56] <tirhak> installed apache 2 and cant edit index.html cause its owned by the root
[15:56] <wols_> computerx: no. but it can misreport temperatures. compare BIOS temperatures and the ones you get in ubuntu
[15:56] <Gargille> coz_ thanks.
[15:56] <computerx> wols_: they match
[15:56] <tirhak> i think if i do a reintalll of 11.04 vs a upgrade i should be ok
[15:56] <coz_> Gargille,  do you know how to check the hard drive temps?
[15:56] <qin> p3rp: It is very good to have /, /home separate, 10Gb, whatever respectively
[15:56] <rodhash> Hello guys.. I need little help with zic.. my ubuntu boots up with a weird time, like -3h behind the correct.. and just after I log in Gnome my system date changes to the correct... defined by zic on /etc/localtime
[15:57] <computerx> coz_: I'm not looking for a temp, but I'm monitoring it because I know I'm operating *very* hot
[15:57] <Night_Elf> genii-around: And actually, the online machine doesn't even need to be Ubuntu, or linux at all for that matter.
[15:57] <wols_> tirhak: no it won't change that index.html is owned by root
[15:57] <Koobilitoo> 130 C is 266 F
[15:57] <eaSy> Hello
[15:57] <magicj> saliak: there are many web pges that give u the mappings
[15:57] <coz_> computerx,  oh!  well the more critical temp is the hard drive if it is not ssd
[15:57] <mikef187> are the main ubuntu update servers having trouble?
[15:57] <computerx> The bios definitely said 125 degrees celcius after a 1 min break and restart >.>
[15:57] <qin> Gargille: graphic is more important, try to disable nvidia driver.
[15:57] <Gargille> qin, 4 lines: line 1 is:     xorg:nvidia_173 - NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (proprietary, Disabled, not in use)
[15:58] <coz_> computerx,  for the hard drive temp??
[15:58] <computerx> coz_: Yeah, thankfully they're just doing batches of video transcoding, so the hard drives are bored.
[15:58] <computerx> coz_: No no, CPU
[15:58] <lotuspsychje> computerx: does your cpu fan blowing?
[15:58] <coz_> computerx,  ah   ok  phew :)
[15:58] <Gargille> qin, line 2 is: xorg:nvidia_current -....... prop. disabled, not in use
[15:58] <computerx> Yes, I cleaned it out last week
[15:58] <lotuspsychje> computerx: what mobo?
[15:58] <Koobilitoo> they sure attract dust quickly lol
[15:58] <qin> Gargille: Different way, on reboot, hold shit and boot in resque mode, choose failsafe
[15:58] <computerx> Asus m2a-vm
[15:59] <lotuspsychje> computerx: did you try asus monitoring tools,?
[15:59] <Gargille> qin, line 3 is :    pkg:sl-modem-daemon software modem (prop, disabled, not in use)
[15:59] <rodhash> Someone has any expertise on zic or /etc/localtime ??
[15:59] <mikef187> anyone else getting 404 on ubuntu update servers?
[15:59] <wols_> lotuspsychje: would you link us to these tools asus made for running under ubuntu? *g*
[15:59] <computerx> No, I'm just using the bios and lm-sensors (which match)
[16:00] <Gargille> qin, line 4 is: xorg:nouveau experimental 3D support for NVIDIA cards (Free, disabled, not in use)
[16:00] <computerx> Do Asus have monitoring tools for linux? Their website is so bad, I avoid it as much as possible
[16:00] <lotuspsychje> wols_: maybe wine can handle it just for testing
[16:00] <tirhak> minimmum system requires just ram what about processor speed
[16:00] <eaSy> I've just install ubuntu 11.04 on my laptop, and I can't use my wireless card, this is the error : http://pastebin.com/tX58NuAc
[16:01] <qin> Gargille: Strange... can you try to boot in resque mode?
[16:01] <computerx> Well, with all the windows open, and two fans, the fileserver is beeping less often.
[16:01] <qin> !nvidia | Gargille
[16:01] <Gargille> qin, working on it. I did a sudo shutdown now. I am looking at the black and white vertical lines on the screen.
[16:01] <treebeen> eaSy: the firmware seems to be too old on the wifi card, it's not supported by the module at least
[16:01] <Koobilitoo> can get a small 5200 btu ac unti cheap nowadays
[16:02] <Koobilitoo> unti = unit
[16:02] <qin> Gargille: Is it laptop?
[16:02] <wols_> lotuspsychje: you need to learn what hardware accessing programs need me thinks
[16:02] <computerx> I guess I'll have to knock up a bash script to monitor the cpu temp, and pause the ffmpeg process if it hits a certain level
[16:02] <eaSy> treebeen: How can I do?
[16:02] <Gargille> yes laptop. AMD turion x64 x2 with nvidia geforce go 7400
[16:02] <treebeen> eaSy: run 'lspci' and see if you can find the exact model of the card
[16:02] <Koobilitoo> what does lspci do?
[16:03] <Koobilitoo> look scan pci ports?
[16:03] <eaSy> okay wait
[16:03] <Gargille> qin, yes laptop. AMD turion x64 x2 with nvidia geforce go 7400 an MSI m673 something.
[16:03] <qin> Gargille: Got it.
[16:03] <Koobilitoo> !lspci
[16:03] <wols_> Koobilitoo: display what PCI devices are installed in the system
[16:03] <Koobilitoo> ahhh ya for an answer bot thingy
[16:03] <Koobilitoo> can learn the ubuntu terminology quickly that way
[16:04] <Gargille> qin, the black and white vertical lines are still there. I guess it froze. doing a 4sec power button shutdown now
[16:04] <eaSy> treebeen: 04:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 (rev 09)
[16:04] <treebeen> Koobilitoo: yes, 'man lspci' if you want to know exactly
[16:04] <wols_> Koobilitoo: to check ubottu, next time use /msg ubottu <search term>
[16:04] <lotuspsychje> wols_ what about virtualbox running hardware monitorring
[16:05] <Koobilitoo> i am using virtualbox right now with windows 7 running seems my usb drive is recognized in ubuntu but not windows even tho the option is checked in the virtulbox settings
[16:05] <GhostBorg> Wow, Burnaware free in Wine was able to continue a Windows created Multisession disc without shortening filenames , installed with Wine defaults.
[16:05] <wols_> lotuspsychje: you need to learn what hardware accessing programs need me thinks
[16:05] <Qas> Koobilitoo: are you sure you are a member of the vboxusrs group?
[16:06] <Qas> you need to be a member of that group to access USB devices
[16:06] <ActionPa1snip> Koobilitoo: did you install the closed source version?
[16:06] <Gargille> qin, reboot ongoing. linux kernel is 2.6.38-9-generic by the way. doing a recovery mode
[16:06] <mohammadbagher> oh!!
[16:06] <Koobilitoo> it says Oracle VM Virtual Box
[16:06] <Qas> Koobilitoo: did you download from website or apt-get
[16:06] <mohammadbagher> yes
[16:06] <petrolman> Any idea why the system monitor always shows a higher cpu use than top does in the command line? I ve started both with  an interval of one seconds.
[16:07] <wols_> petrolman: what are the two different values at the same time?
[16:07] <Koobilitoo> I dont remmber its not the OSE one
[16:08] <Qas> Koobilitoo: ok, you probably just need to make sure you are a member of the vboxusrs group
[16:08] <Koobilitoo> and that would do what?
[16:08] <Koobilitoo> make the option work correctly?
[16:08] <GhostBorg> Vbox- Windows guest make sure you uninstall guest additions before upgrading to a newer version, this caused me problems with my USB devices and drivers.
[16:08] <eaSy> treebeen: 04:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 (rev 09)
[16:09] <Qas> in order to use a USB device in a guest, you need to be a member of that group
[16:09] <petrolman> wols_, the value is 3-4 times higher in the system monitor.
[16:09] <Koobilitoo> oh ok
[16:09] <Gargille> qin, nothing happened. no gui. the hdd light blinks from time to time.
[16:09] <Koobilitoo> i'll have to go try to figure out how to do that
[16:09] <wols_> petrolman: quad?
[16:09] <Qas> you just need to go into Users and Groups and tick a box IIRC
[16:10] <Qas> if you google it, you'll find it
[16:10] <petrolman> no, I ve activated only one cpu (VirtualBox)
[16:10] <treebeen> eaSy: ok, i also have to google around for it... one moment
[16:10] <eaSy> Thanks
[16:10] <Koobilitoo> ok so  google what exactly
[16:10] <ActionPa1snip> Koobilitoo: if you run:  dpkg -l | grep -i virtual    do you se 'ose'?
[16:10] <p3rp> how can i stop busy box
[16:10] <Koobilitoo> virtual box users group?
[16:10] <eaSy> I googlt it durint 1 hour :/
[16:10] <qin> Gargille: This seem to be worth looking: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1744248
[16:10] <wols_> p3rp: "exit"?
[16:11] <p3rp> well i keep getting into it when i boot up
[16:12] <ActionPa1snip> p3rp: boot to live CD and reinstate grub2
[16:12] <wols_> p3rp: then you have a grave error on bootup
[16:12] <Gorkyman> hey guys... is there any release that is friendly for internet mobile roaming? I want something to close all internet connections, optimize browser without images, optimize chat transfer, traffic tracking etc
[16:12] <wols_> ActionPa1snip: if he runs busybox, grub works fine
[16:12] <Gorkyman> any suggestion?
[16:12] <wols_> p3rp: before you get into busybox, there will be an error
[16:12] <p3rp> how can i correct it?
[16:12] <Koobilitoo> ok under system then admin
[16:13] <wols_> p3rp: our crystalball that tells us what error(s) you get is at the shop, it needs repairs
[16:13] <ActionPa1snip> wols_: it should boot through to the OS though
[16:13] <phillyj> when i empty the trash via cmd line, is it ok to just remove the 2 folders named files/ and info/ ?
[16:13] <LuckyStrike_> can someone help me install & configure conky, please? xD
[16:13] <phillyj> Will they get regenerated later?
[16:13] <wols_> ActionPa1snip: not when there are errors. like "can't find /" or such
[16:13] <p3rp> great..so its ultimately the hard ware
[16:13] <wols_> p3rp: no
