[12:54] <odb|fidel> chull: well as it sound you arent a techi - but a user without administraive rights which is willing to get those ... bad conflict ;)
[12:54] <chull> odb|fidel, i'm his mother, does that count? and we paid for the drive too!
[12:54] <odb|fidel> chull: and how does that helps any further?
[12:54] <teolicy> How do I choose the 'primary' interface now? Why is the primary interface special? Would editing /etc/network/interfaces and just specifying my interfaces be identical to using that guided configuration tool?
[12:55] <tracy69> chull,  whos mother are you ?
[12:55] <odb|fidel> its about having no sudo rights & no person around with sudo rights but asking how to get sudo rights - which takes at least some fiddling
[12:55] <chull> odb|fidel, somehow glaring at it does not make it look nicely.
[12:55] <ikonia> odb|fidel: just add the user to the "admin" group, then they have sudo rights
[12:55] <teolicy> (the answer to that last question is 'no', I edited /etc/network/interfaces and tried both '/etc/init.d/networking restart' and a reboot, my interfaces aren't configured)
[12:55] <chull> tracy69, if i told you, everyone would know.
[12:56] <odb|fidel> ikonia: read
[12:56] <stapel> glebihan: ok, I see, but I am still not sure how to use it. How can I paste a script to pastebin for you to see?
[12:56] <tracy69> ok my son is over here too
[12:56] <sdschulze> teolicy: "not configured" in what way?
[12:56] <odb|fidel> ikonia: she doenst have sudo rights-  so she cants just use the ui to upgrade her or her husbands account
[12:56] <glebihan> !paste | stapel
[12:56] <sdschulze> teolicy: ifconfig, netstat -rn?
[12:56] <bahaa2008> i want to convert flv to mp4
[12:56] <ikonia> odb|fidel: I see, yes, she can't upgrade, and that's to be expected
[12:56] <teolicy> ifconfig: interfaces down with no IP address.
[12:56] <stapel> glebihan: http://paste.ubuntu.com/490915/
[12:56] <odb|fidel> ikonia: at least if i followed her correct
[12:56] <sdschulze> bahaa2008: So use ffmpeg.
[12:57] <teolicy> sdschulze, ^^^
[12:57] <odb|fidel> ikonia: the only user with admin privs (afaik) is away
[12:57] <ikonia> odb|fidel: nothing we can do than
[12:57] <sdschulze> teolicy: anything suspicious in dmesg?
[12:57] <bahaa2008> sdschulze, the issue is about the arguments to use :)
[12:57] <duffydack> any way to get channel list from sidebar to tabs at bottom in xchat-gnome.
[12:57] <odb|fidel> ikonia: at least for a non-tech - i fully agree
[12:57] <sdschulze> bahaa2008: ffmpeg -i orig.flv new.mp4
[12:58] <sdschulze> bahaa2008: You may also want to set up the bitrate.
[12:58] <bahaa2008> sdschulze, http://pastebin.com/0uJfunih
[12:58] <stapel> glebihan: I need to replace 'echo $i' with something that outputs the linenumber from clamscan
[12:58] <teolicy> Nope. Furthermore, if I manually set them up with ifconfig, route add, etc, everything is happy. I'm just not familiar with Ubuntu Server's userspace system for network configuration, the hardware and kernel layers seem fine.
[12:58] <bahaa2008> sdschulze, Unsupported codec for output stream #0.1

[13:00] <glebihan> stapel, ok this is slightly more complicated than I thought
[13:00] <sdschulze> bahaa2008: faac installed?
[13:01] <teolicy> sdschulze, ah, found one thing: forgot to add my interface to the 'auto' line.
[13:01] <teolicy> sdschulze, however, during setup I was asked which is the 'primary' interface; how would Ubuntu treat it differently if it's 'primary'?
[13:01] <sdschulze> teolicy: no idea about Ubuntu server
[13:01] <glebihan> stapel, I don't have much time right now, so maybe I could get back to you later by mail, or you can find somebody else that might help you faster
[13:02] <sdschulze> 10.04 pisses me a bit.
[13:02] <bahaa2008> sdschulze, same issue
[13:02] <sdschulze> bahaa2008: The problem seems to be audio.
[13:03] <bahaa2008> what's wrong with it ?
[13:03] <stapel> glebihan: thanx for your help anyway. I do appreciate it.
[13:03] <sdschulze> bahaa2008: Maybe "-acodec aac" helps.
[13:03] <JohnHeikkila> What's the problem
[13:04] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: his? ffmpeg
[13:04] <glebihan> stapel, you're welcome, as I said if you want I can think a bit more about it and come back to you later if you PM me an email address
[13:04] <sdschulze> mine? gnome-volume-control
[13:04] <stapel> glebihan: How do I send you a pm with my email?
[13:04] <duffydack> -acodec libfaac
[13:04] <bahaa2008> sdschulze, Unknown encoder 'aac'
[13:04] <sdschulze> duffydack: thanks
[13:04] <JohnHeikkila> so your AAC isn't working
[13:04] <JohnHeikkila> ohh
[13:05] <duffydack> might need ffmpeg with the libs from medibuntu tho
[13:05] <JohnHeikkila> let me think
[13:05] <duffydack> personally, its better to compile your own. aint hard either
[13:05] <sdschulze> bahaa2008: Do as duffydack suggested.
[13:05] <JohnHeikkila> duffydack: Do you have libx264
[13:05] <duffydack> JohnHeikkila, yes.
[13:06] <zeroone1> What do I need to send mails with an webformular (php) to my email-address(es) ?(website runs on my own virtual server)
[13:06] <bahaa2008> sdschulze, compile ffmpeg !!!
[13:06] <duffydack> JohnHeikkila,  but I use x264, the compiled version.
[13:06] <duffydack> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=786095  < copy and paste, ftw
[13:06] <sdschulze> bahaa2008: no, use -acoded libfaac
[13:06] <sdschulze> *acodec
[13:06] <JohnHeikkila> ffmpeg-amr-svn?
[13:07] <owd95> when i minimize a windows without compiz a uggly line shows, can i remove it?
[13:07] <sdschulze> zeroone1: Ask a PHP guru.
[13:07] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze, were you having trouble with gnome-volume-control?
[13:07] <bahaa2008> duffydack, sdschulze Unknown encoder 'libfaac'
[13:08] <bahaa2008>  ffmpeg -i input.flv -acodec libfaac output.mp4
[13:08] <duffydack> bahaa2008, ffmpeg -formats
[13:08] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: Yes -- is there any way to configure gnome-volume-control which actual ALSA lever to use?
[13:09] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze, I don't know for I don't fight with ASLA that much..hmm
[13:09] <duffydack> libavcodec-extra-52 installed?
[13:09] <ashwani> my synaptic manager is not working properly so what should i do for that
[13:09] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: My sound card auto-mutes the front speaker (laptop), but when I change the volume in GNOME, it screws it up.
[13:09] <bahaa2008> duffydack, http://pastebin.com/hr4sPBLJ
[13:09] <duffydack> Dude, just compile a newer version.
[13:09] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: It's not an ALSA problem, obviously.
[13:09] <ashwani> it means that is not opening
[13:10] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze, Obviously :/
[13:10] <duffydack> 8 threaded encoding to x264 is a LOT faster
[13:10] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: I just want to tell gnome-volume-control: use the Master lever for volume control, nothing else.
[13:10] <duffydack> bahaa2008, doesnt look like you have the encoder for it
[13:11] <ashwani> what is the reason behind non working of synaptic manager
[13:11] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze: You checked the Hardware part?
[13:11] <JohnHeikkila> *tab
[13:11] <bahaa2008> duffydack, how to get it
[13:11] <ashwani> guys help me out please
[13:11] <JohnHeikkila> ashwani: Doesn't it start?
[13:11] <duffydack> bahaa2008,  medibuntu repo ?
[13:11] <ashwani> its quite urgent
[13:11] <bahaa2008> duffydack, the package name ?
[13:11] <ashwani> yeah it is not responding
[13:11] <JohnHeikkila> But it's started?
[13:12] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: what hardware part?
[13:12] <alcy> quick one folks, my dad just tried to upgrade to 10.04 LTS (I stay away from home) from 9.10, and the update manager has prompted to ask whether grub should be left as is, or should the package maintainer's version be installed. Just wanted to ask from you folks, if its safe to go either way ? I usually took care of his system, but never did a dist upgrade :P
[13:12] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: I watched it screwing it up by opening alsamixer.
[13:12] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze: Click the Audio sign in the notification area, then click preferences
[13:12] <JohnHeikkila> hmm
[13:12] <duffydack> bahaa2008, have you enabled medibuntu repo
[13:12] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze: Sorry, I can't help :)
[13:12] <JohnHeikkila> *:(
[13:12] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: It's always been trivial in Debian, BTW.
[13:12] <FloodBot4> JohnHeikkila: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:12] <ikonia> alcy: either is fine
[13:13] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: There is no "preferences".
[13:13] <JohnHeikkila> O.o
[13:13] <alcy> ikonia, cool..I was just worried about the uuid specific stuff - device naming et al.
[13:13] <ikonia> alcy: don't worry, either is fine
[13:13] <JohnHeikkila> ashwani: open terminal with CTRL+ALT+T, then run "gdb synaptic", then type "run"
[13:14] <alcy> ikonia, cool...thanks.
[13:14] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze: That is..very weard O.o
[13:14] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: I think it was one of the "improvements" to the latest Ubuntu versions that screwed it up.
[13:14] <JohnHeikkila> which ubuntu version u using, sdschulze
[13:14] <sdschulze> 10.04
[13:14] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze: Me too but I got no problems with speakers
[13:14] <JohnHeikkila> Have you tried Jack
[13:14] <JohnHeikkila> instead of Alsa
[13:15] <sdschulze> I have a fairly up-to-date Debian squeeze systems that has no such "improvements" included.  It works fine.
[13:15] <sdschulze> and it's trivial to set up such stuff there

[13:23] <Pici> Sorry about that folks.
[13:24] <Crankygeek> Good Morning everyone
[13:24] <duffydack> lol.. it was pretty quiet in here
[13:24] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: OK, I semi-fixed it.
[13:24] <sdschulze> by using gconf-editor
[13:24] <sdschulze> But it still messes it up when volume decreases.
[13:25] <filipek> hello everyone - does the gwibber work for you guys?
[13:25] <filipek> it seems it does not update itself (gwibber is updated 5 mins ago)
[13:25] <sdschulze> Even Windows shows the individual sound card channels -- why doesn't Ubuntu?!?
[13:26] <bahaa2008> sdschulze, duffydack thanks guys for your help
[13:26] <bahaa2008> it's done
[13:26] <bahaa2008> special thanks to duffydack
[13:27] <JohnHeikkila> did the channel down or something
[13:27] <ranjan> hi all
[13:27] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: Yes, and worst, it removed the hardware-induced mute.
[13:27] <ranjan> is there anybody who has successfully implemented asterisk PBX
[13:29] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: It arbitrarily modifies channels whose purpose it doesn't understand -- that's what I don't like at all.
[13:29] <htorque> hello, is there way to retrieve the output of a virtual terminal i'm currently logged in? the info i needed has scrolled off-screen and i can't scroll back.
[13:29] <sdschulze> htorque: Erm, bad luck then, if you haven't logged it anywhere.
[13:29] <ranjan> htorque, use the shift+page up keys
[13:30] <abhinav_singh> i am having mysql in my machine i wanna know how to update it
[13:30] <htorque> ranjan, that's what i've tried, but it didn't work
[13:30] <sdschulze> htorque: what kind of terminal program
[13:30] <sdschulze> ?
[13:31] <ranjan> htorque, what was the program executed?
[13:31] <htorque> sdschulze, getty i guess? it's the standard tty*
[13:32] <htorque> sdschulze, i'm using a framebuffer if that's relevant for the shift-pgup thingy
[13:35] <JohnHeikkila> abhinav_singh: You tried apt-get update?
[13:38] <incorrect> hello, what causes a machine to appear in nautilus's 'network://' list ?
[13:38] <wielkiszu> hi. anyone compiled vim 7.3.3 on ubuntu 10.04 with gtk2 ?
[13:39] <JohnHeikkila> why don't you install vim from the repos?
[13:39] <ikonia> wielkiszu: just use the packaged versions, they are all dependant on each other
[13:39] <wielkiszu> i need ruby 1.9.2 support
[13:39] <ikonia> E please stop that
[13:40] <tracy69> c please stop it
[13:40] <E> ok
[13:40] <ikonia> tracy69: he's been told
[13:40] <billy> hi folks - looking at personal wiki packages - wixi & zim wiki look good - anyone have experience with either or suggestions?
[13:40] <datacrusher> yo
[13:40] <tracy69> no ikonia u have told to E
[13:40] <ikonia> tracy69: it's the ssame person
[13:40] <wielkiszu> and i'f i remember, 7.2 is in repos still
[13:41] <bazhang> !nickspam > Z
[13:44] <adac> Am I the only one that experience slow updates/upgrades mean slow download speed
[13:45] <filipek> adac, currently not my case
[13:45] <tracy69> u can try select best server
[13:45] <filipek> 1MB/s on 10MBit connection
[13:45] <avi_> Hey everyone! So I love Plymouth, but sadly it doesn't like proprietary drivers. So I'd really just like to get rid of it all together. How can I disable it, and just get the standard wall of text style boot?
[13:45] <adac> tracy69, how to do that?
[13:45] <tracy69> filipek,  10mb/s
[13:45] <Kai___> Hey hey there, Can someone lend a hand? I'm trying to get Flash Player installed on Firefox, I used sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree and it installed correctly, but it still won't load youtube :(
[13:45] <JohnHeikkila> avi_:apt-get remove plymouth?
[13:45] <tracy69> adac software sources
[13:46] <diftow> I'm having same issue with Flash
[13:46] <JohnHeikkila> Kai___: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[13:46] <avi_> JohnHeikkila, Wouldn't that give me all sorts of errors?
[13:46] <avi_> !details | diftow
[13:46] <tracy69> diftow,  everyone has
[13:46] <Pici> JohnHeikkila: Please don't suggest that, plymouth is required for the boot process.
[13:46] <JohnHeikkila> avi_: I don't know, just gave the simple thing
[13:46] <Kai___> JohnHeikkila, Also installed already; according to the package manager
[13:46] <avi_> Yeah :/
[13:46] <JohnHeikkila> pici: Okay, sorry, not very familiar with plymouth
[13:46] <Kai___> Terminal reports already installed as well
[13:47] <yann2> hello! It seems the latest XUL update killed my thunderbird - am I the only one with the problem?
[13:47] <JohnHeikkila> Kai___: That's weard.
[13:48] <steve_> does anyone know why i would not be able to mount a windows share in gnome but be able to do so via terminal this is sending me insane
[13:48] <Kai___> I installed flash BEFORE I did the system upgrade, originally installed was Ubuntu 9.*.* and it has sense been upgraded to 10.*.*
[13:48] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: If it was possible to locate the code that does the volume settings, it would be not so hard to fix it.
[13:48] <JohnHeikkila> Kai___: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/flash
[13:48] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze: But I guess it is :(
[13:49] <Kai___> Ah, fair deal.. I am using x82_64 :P
[13:49] <avi_> Does anyone think that changing taking the 'splash' out of 'quiet splash' in nano /etc/defaults/grub would fix the problem?
[13:50] <avi_> Actually, I just found the answer http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1505769 Thanks all though.
[13:50] <JohnHeikkila> Kai___: Me too
[13:50] <iflema> avi_: remove splash and quiet and add text
[13:50] <avi_> iflema, Yup, that's the solution in the thread. Thanks!
[13:51] <BlackBeast> hello, i need help
[13:51] <BlackBeast> somebody+
[13:51] <BlackBeast> ?
[13:52] <tracy69> BlackBeast,  what sort of help do you need?
[13:52] <BlackBeast> I have a problem with ubuntu
[13:52] <BlackBeast> tracy, well let me explain
[13:52] <tracy69> BlackBeast, just ask
[13:52] <JohnHeikkila> BlackBeast: So, what's wrong with your ubuntu?
[13:53] <BlackBeast> tracy69: i have windows in my pc, with a Linux OS call Canaima, yesterday i was trying a cd live of ubuntu
[13:53] <tracy69> BlackBeast,  and?
[13:53] <tracy69> :)
[13:53] <BlackBeast> so, i try to delete that liu, and install ubuntu, but, in some point, when i reboot
[13:54] <BlackBeast> linux*
[13:54] <BlackBeast> it just say..
[13:54] <BlackBeast> welcome to grb
[13:54] <BlackBeast> unknown system
[13:54] <JohnHeikkila> !enter
[13:54] <JohnHeikkila> :)
[13:55] <BlackBeast> ad some restore
[13:55] <JohnHeikkila> that is weard indeed, it shouldn't say unknown system
[13:55] <janik> hi there
[13:55] <BlackBeast> exactly..
[13:56] <JohnHeikkila> janik: Hello
[13:56] <diftow> Is this X Window System really old? :P
[13:56] <diftow> the*
[13:56] <BlackBeast> and when i reboot, i oly can with the cd live.
[13:56] <BlackBeast> no, it's vista
[13:56] <awk> hi, I have an issue... I have a usb -> com adapter. if I plug it in and do a dmesg I see nothing... any pointers?
[13:56] <ongolaBoy> BlackBeast: during the installation, did you choose to 'install GRUB' ?
[13:57] <JohnHeikkila> ongolaBoy: He doesn't have Ubuntu installed, but "Canaima"
[13:57] <diftow> http://fsv.sourceforge.net/ - How would I get this to run in Ubuntu? It is open source for Linux, but old Linux systems I believe.
[13:57] <tracy69> BlackBeast,  u had two OSes already installed win and some linux right?
[13:57] <BlackBeast> wait
[13:57] <BlackBeast> it's say:
[13:57] <ongolaBoy> JohnHeikkila: I thought he tried to install ubuntu from his live cd
[13:57] <BlackBeast> unkown filesystem
[13:57] <BlackBeast> entering rescue mode
[13:57] <JohnHeikkila> ongolaBoy: Ohh
[13:58] <janik> Migrated from pure Debian SID to Kubuntu, can only say: It's amazing. Kudos for the distro. just wanted to know: why there are sometimes packages marked with "opensuse" in the version line, are they derived from opensuse or made with their builder? why ubuntu does not make own pkgs?
[13:58] <Fendaril> Does anyone know how to check my GCC version
[13:59] <tracy69> gcc --version
[13:59] <awk> or dpkg -l | grep gcc
[13:59] <BlackBeast> tracy69: no, i only have windows vista, and that canaima
[14:02] <awk> hmm. so nobody know how to setup a usb if it doesnt  automatically get picked up
[14:02] <awk> dmesg shows nothing
[14:02] <Pici> janik: Can you give an example of one of the packages that you see that on?
[14:03] <JohnHeikkila> awk: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB
[14:03] <janik> Pici: yeah, mysql-admin
[14:04] <awk> JohnHeikkila, this is a USB -> Com RS-232... If i plug it in I get nothing on dmesg
[14:04] <awk> I need this as laptops dont have com ports anymore.
[14:04] <JohnHeikkila> weard
[14:04] <awk> it works on windows with its driver.. I really dont want to use vmware just for 1 device
[14:05] <JohnHeikkila> gotcha awk http://blog.mypapit.net/2008/05/how-to-use-usb-serial-port-converter-in-ubuntu.html
[14:05] <JohnHeikkila> oh no, that won
[14:05] <iflema> awk plug it in and in a terminal      tail /var/log/messages
[14:06] <Pici> janik: Thats actually a sync from debian.  Its version 5.0r14+openSUSE-2.1 in Debian Testing as well.
[14:06] <awk> iflema,  I get nothing... however I know USB is working.. as I use other devices
[14:06] <JohnHeikkila> what about lsusb
[14:06] <Pici> janik: The changelog for the mysql-gui-tools source package lists why.
[14:06] <awk> nothing
[14:07] <awk> just shows my hub controllers
[14:07] <JohnHeikkila> awk: Copy to pastebin and link here
[14:07] <JohnHeikkila> no "---- ----"
[14:07] <awk> no
[14:07] <iflema> awk no /dev/ttyUSB0 ?
[14:07] <awk> nope
[14:07] <JohnHeikkila> awk: Try sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0x4348 product=0x5523
[14:07] <JohnHeikkila> it's hopeless, but might work

[14:12] <JohnHeikkila> maggu: join #ubuntu-de
[14:12] <tracy69> magu konnen sie english sprechen ?
[14:12] <sometux_> Do anyone have a solution for a problem of GPU lockups while playing Penumbra BP: chipset =Intel Mobile 4, driver=i915?
[14:12] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: OK, I can set up GNOME to disable the front speaker, too.  This temporarily solves the problem, though it's not the nicest solution.  I very much prefer the Debian way where it doesn't touch your levers if you don't tell it to do so...
[14:13] <JohnHeikkila> ja660k: No problem ;)
[14:13] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze: Ubuntu - Linux for Human Beings!
[14:14] <sometux_> Do anyone have a solution for a problem of GPU lockups while playing Penumbra BP: chipset =Intel Mobile 4, driver=i915?
[14:15] <bedahr> quick question: Is it true that the package qt-multimedia is not included in 10.10 because it has been merged with another package. If yes, as a packager: If an app depends on qt-multimedia what package should it depend on for the same package to work on both 10.04 and 10.10?
[14:15] <JohnHeikkila> sometux_: If nobody knows here, you could make an Ubuntu forum topic about it
 so you have got intel gpu?
[14:15] <hihihi100> who can help me to upgrade ALSA?
[14:15] <shredder12> does anyone know how to install Xen on Lucid? the help doc seems out dated https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xen
[14:15] <hihihi100> im stuck with this: http://monespaceperso.org/blog-en/2010/05/02/upgrade-alsa-1-0-23-on-ubuntu-lucid-lynx-10-04/
[14:15] <maggu> sry, hello, what have i to configure in sendmail, that sending mails work (with the php-funktion mail() on the mail-address in the php-script)
[14:15] <sometux_> tracy69, yes Intel Mobile 4
 check up #alsa
[14:16] <Pici> bedahr: Thats probably a better question for #ubuntu-motu or #ubuntu-packaging
[14:16] <bedahr> Pici: ok thanks
[14:16] <hihihi100> tracy69 is that what i have to write in the terminal?
[14:16] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: I always thought I was a human being...
[14:16] <hihihi100> please write the whole command line, as im a noob
[14:16] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze: :)
[14:17] <JohnHeikkila> hihihi100: write here on the irc /join #alsa
[14:17] <JohnHeikkila> hihihi100: Join the #alsa irc channel for alsa support
[14:17] <hihihi100> # alsa
[14:17] <sometux_> tracy69,  I have finished more than the half of the game without a problem
[14:17] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: But I'm kinda disappointed by 10.04.  The sound thing is really something I would not do this way.  Don't try to be worse than Windows.
[14:18] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze: Perhaps it's better to go back to Hardy.
[14:18] <JohnHeikkila> :)
[14:18] <sdschulze> probably...
[14:18] <JohnHeikkila> hihihi100: Write : "/join #alsa"
[14:18] <sdschulze> Though Debian would be the better option for me.
[14:18] <sometux_> tracy69, so do you know about the problem?
[14:18] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze: Perhaps you should get Debian ;)
[14:19] <sometux_> tracy69, I have to quit please answer
[14:19] <tracy69> Someone67,  my advice
[14:19] <tracy69> buy better graphic card
[14:19] <tracy69> maybe ati or nvidia
[14:19] <sdschulze> JohnHeikkila: Probably.  Though there are things I [used to] like about Ubuntu, and there is also the "donÃ't hange a running system" barrier.
[14:20] <sdschulze> *change
[14:20] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze:  :)
[14:20] <sometux_> tracy69, How I didn't think of that :}
[14:20] <JohnHeikkila> get Nvidia
[14:21] <tracy69> Someone67,  intel gpu isnt designed for gaming
[14:21] <JohnHeikkila> More for..office use
[14:21] <janik> Pici: thx
[14:22] <sdschulze> It's just 10.04 tries to do things te Windows way -- only worse and in an exaggerated manner.
[14:22] <sdschulze> tracy69: I'd try ATI.  It's slightly more free software-friendly.
[14:22] <JohnHeikkila> sds
[14:22] <JohnHeikkila> oops
[14:23] <econdudeawesome> X has died on my comp. Rest in peace.
[14:24] <JohnHeikkila> sdschulze: Ubuntu 11 - The free Windows
[14:24] <JohnHeikkila> lol
[14:24] <sdschulze> If 10.10 gets even worse, I'll definitely switch to Debian.
[14:24] <JohnHeikkila> never. let's go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:24] <bazhang> !ot | JohnHeikkila sdschulze
[14:24] <econdudeawesome> Anyone know how to fix a gnarly screwed up Xserver?
[14:25] <JohnHeikkila> econdudeawesome: Try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[14:26] <econdudeawesome> JohnHeikkila: done. I'll give it a go. Probably be back soon.
[14:27] <tw0fac7> can i ask for general noob help here or is this delegated to more complex support
[14:29] <Pici> tw0fac7: Just ask.
[14:30] <tracy69> tw0fac7,  im noob too
[14:30] <tracy69> so just ask
[14:30] <econdudeawesome> No such luck on fixing blasted Xserver. there error says "no kernel modesetting driver detected. Also errors opening /dev/fb0
[14:31] <tw0fac7> so, what does 'file' do
[14:31] <tw0fac7> it doesnt give me any info i understand
[14:33] <Pici> tw0fac7: It attempts to figure out what file type your target file is.
[14:33] <magaio> Does anyone have a good duplex document scanner working well?

[14:34] <econdudeawesome> JohnHeikkila: yes
[14:34] <thebishop> anyone know how to make a bootable windows7 usb stick from ubuntu?  i think the only part i'm missing is the bootsector
[14:34] <JohnHeikkila> did it work?
[14:34] <Pici> tw0fac7: Its a symlink (like a shortcut) to boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-19-generic
[14:34] <tw0fac7> ah a shortcut
[14:34] <tw0fac7> thanks
[14:34] <econdudeawesome> JohnHeikkila: No such luck on fixing blasted Xserver. there error says "no kernel modesetting driver detected. Also errors opening /dev/fb0
[14:34] <RanyAlbeg> Hello, is there a way to check a computer name by a given IP number? Thanks.
[14:34] <econdudeawesome> JohnHeikkila: these were the errors I was getting before
[14:35] <JohnHeikkila> are you in a console mode
[14:35] <econdudeawesome> JohnHeikkila: yes
[14:35] <JohnHeikkila> econdudeawesome: run startx
[14:35] <rob_p> RanyAlbeg: The 'host' command, perhaps.
[14:35] <econdudeawesome> JohnHeikkila: that's what threw the errors
[14:35] <JohnHeikkila> ohh
[14:35] <rob_p> RanyAlbeg: ...as in, "host <ip addr>"
[14:36] <chaoskey_> hello
[14:36] <eriksson25> Anyone that can help me. Want to add disks to mdadm raid 5, but the disks are bigger then original disks. So I loose alot of space.
[14:36] <JohnHeikkila> econdudeawesome: Are you on a laptop?
[14:36] <econdudeawesome> JohnHeikkila: no, desktop
[14:36] <JohnHeikkila> Do you know your system specs?
[14:36] <econdudeawesome> old old old desktop :-)
[14:36] <eriksson25> I have 6*1TB and added 2*2TB but only gained 1,5TB space
[14:37] <JohnHeikkila> econdudeawesome: Lol
[14:37] <econdudeawesome> JohnHeikkila: some, is there a way to look them up quickly?
[14:37] <JohnHeikkila> econdudeawesome: Do you know which graphics driver you are using?
[14:37] <sniperjo_> is anyone aware of Firefox on linux being less efficient at playing ogv files
[14:37] <econdudeawesome> JohnHeikkila: haven't the foggiest--how would I check?
[14:37] <SeaOrifice> is it possible to instal ?l ns-2 (network simulator) using apt-get
[14:37] <SeaOrifice> ?
[14:38] <JohnHeikkila> econdudeawesome: sudo apt-get install hardinfo && hardinfo
[14:38] <JohnHeikkila> SeaOrifice: If you can do apt-get install ns-2
[14:38] <look> econdudeawesome: do an lspci in the terminal
[14:39] <look> econdudeawesome: that will give you the hardware in your computer, after which you can down the driver  you need with apt-get
[14:39] <Pici> eriksson25: Thats how raid 5 works.  You're limited to the smallest drive sizes.
[14:39] <SeaOrifice> JohnHeikkila: thats probably not the package name ubuntu uses
[14:39] <eriksson25> Will it work to devide up the 2tb disks in 2*1TB partitions and add both partitions so I get 10*1tb
[14:39] <SeaOrifice> so is there a way by which i can search
[14:40] <sniperjo_> is anyone aware of Firefox on linux being less efficient at playing ogv files
[14:40] <look> SeaOrifice: do an lspci in the terminal <-----
[14:40] <look> SeaOrifice: find the your graphics card, or pastebin it.
[14:40] <Pici> eriksson25: RAID is independent of parition sizes.  If you add those 2 2tb drives to your existing array you will be limited by the smallest drive size in the array.

[14:49] <JohnHeikkila> csgeek: run "sudo service network-manager start"

[14:50] <korb> can someone help me on tape device ubuntu 10.04 ?
[14:50] <csgeek> JohnHeikkila: already running

[14:55] <freakynl> hi, anyone got vmware server 2.0.2 working on 8.04 32 bit? It seems to start (vmware server that is) but the webinterface for management dies within a minute after starting the services. netstat then still shows the ports are open, but no responses come from it (the 8333 that is, the 8222 keeps redirecting to 8333)
[14:56] <Duke_Harris> hey guys, short question: I created a symlink for /home/Desktop/ , but now I don't have any icons on my Desktop although there are  Files in the Target directory. Why is this?
[14:56] <bodwick> hmorel freezes on wake-up ?
[14:56] <econdudeawesome> look: no such luck in using repair packages
[14:56] <iuri> how do i checkout only one file on git repository?
[14:56] <freakynl> Duke_Harris: perhaps because it's /home/username/Desktop
[14:56] <hmorel> no when i close the lid
[14:56] <look> econdudeawesome: you left before i was done explaining
[14:56] <econdudeawesome> look: my apologies
[14:56] <Duke_Harris> freakynl, sorry, i meant ~/Desktop
[14:56] <look> econdudeawesome: press the e key on your grub install edit at the end of the install line of code at the end to have 'nomodeset'
[14:57] <dlublink> So, is there an easy way to get back the text boot with Tux ? Without recompiling the kernel or changing config files that will be overwritten at the next boot ?
[14:57] <look> econdudeawesome: just choose your regular boot not the rescue
[14:57] <econdudeawesome> can I edit a config file in /etc to do that instead, so I don't have to restart?
[14:57] <freakynl> Duke_Harris: i never tried it... only thing I can think of is that the permissions on the target folder are not ok
[14:57] <lep-work> coz_, lol I figured it out ... someone chattr'd that file +i ... it's working now
[14:57] <dandre> hello,
[14:57] <look> econdudeawesome: no...
[14:57] <econdudeawesome> (and lose current connect)
[14:57] <Duke_Harris> When I click Desktop in nautilus or in the locationtab in the panel i get the right folder
[14:58] <econdudeawesome> look: Hah, what I meant was so I don't have to restart immediately and lose my support conenction
[14:58] <dandre> is there any way to specify the mount point for gvfs-mount?
[14:58] <econdudeawesome> look: so I just add a line at the end that says "nomodeset"?
[14:59] <zmy> hello everyone!
[14:59] <JohnHeikkila> zmy: Hey
[14:59] <bodwick> hmorel install available closed drivers and if you already use nvidia or fglrx try some other version form vendor's site
[14:59] <look> econdudeawesome: you should be able to boot just fine after that. but if that does not work then you might have to just reinstall...

[15:04] <capitone> ciao a tutti
[15:04] <JohnHeikkila> babu__: What kind of document?
[15:04] <bodwick> hmorel paste it in a terminal
[15:04] <bodwick> hmorel the post says to edit xorg.conf .. to det i810 gfx driver
[15:05] <freakynl> Duke_Harris: if you store a file on the desktop, does it show up somewhere?
[15:05] <JohnHeikkila> babu__: Evince is for viewing PDF, slideshows, etc
[15:05] <hmorel> okay so where do i find the terminal
[15:05] <babu__> pdf,ps
[15:05] <bodwick> hmorel  as said in that psot try to add Option "ForceEnablePipeA" "true" to device section
[15:06] <freakynl> hmorel: ctrl+alt+f1 has a very big one

[15:07] <babu__> reply me
[15:07] <JohnHeikkila> babu__: What1
[15:07] <JohnHeikkila> *!
[15:07] <Duke_Harris> freakynl, when i create a file on the desktop it shows up in the directory. But not vice versa
[15:08] <babu__> i'm not able to view pdf docs wit evince...........r u clear...i'm shouting for this problem for so
[15:09] <freakynl> Duke_Harris: hmm odd, maybe it doesn't like the permissions on the target directory. If you log off and back on now, does it still show the file you created on the desktop?
[15:09] <JohnHeikkila> babu__: Do you have to open them with evince? Can't you use any other programs?
[15:10] <babu__> i want evince only..other is not as good as evince
[15:10] <Duke_Harris> freakynl, I got the tipp in #gnome to use ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs instead of a symlink, gonna try that
[15:10] <freakynl> Duke_Harris: yea that might be better... although symlinks exist for a reason :D
[15:12] <Gof> hello,  i am trying to install icc on ubuntu 9.10 64bit.  and the installer complains about some missing 32bit libraries (namely glibc, libgcc and libstdc++5)    how can i install those?
[15:12] <JohnHeikkila> Gof: You can't, You would need Ubuntu 9.10 32 bit
[15:12] <JohnHeikkila> unless
[15:13] <Gof> JohnHeikkila: i only have a 64bit version of ICC
[15:13] <estragib> Duke_Harris: if all else fails, you can use mount --bind to mount a dir there
[15:13] <erdnase> Good day. I installed wine and all. And on my windows, I installed visual basic on ProgramFiles. But when I browse my C:/Program Files here in my ubuntu, I can't see my installed Visual Studio, only Internet explorer. >_>
[15:14] <hmorel> okay so i opened the terminal and added (sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf) then a blank screen came up.. what am i to do next
[15:14] <xand> erdnase: wine doesn't use your windows c: drive, it uses its own one
[15:14] <bodwick> erdnase install visual studio on ubuntu ?
[15:14] <JohnHeikkila> erdnase: Wine's C:/ is a virtual one, not the real one
[15:14] <g0> hi, in gparted, where exactly on the disk the left most partition written?
[15:14] <Duke_Harris> estragib, thanks, gonna try that too
[15:14] <erdnase> bodwick, oh, i can install it on ubuntu.. i didn't know, thanks.
[15:14] <g0> how do I get a partition to be written on the outer edge of the hard disk?
[15:15] <erdnase> JohnHeikkila, Oooh, thanks man. Thank you too xand.
[15:15] <erdnase> So that means I can completely ditch windows. Thanks again.
[15:15] <g0> i know that this increases speed of access.
[15:16] <warcry> how can i use alsamixer on ubuntu?
[15:16] <xand> warcry: just run it?
[15:16] <warcry> xand, it does not work
[15:17] <xand> why not?
[15:17] <warcry> "cannot open mixer"
[15:17] <warcry> it says that since ubuntu karmic
[15:18] <doobeh> I've got a corrupted partition-- ubuntu thinks it's FAT16 but it should be NTFS, are there any drive tools that I can use to read the partition as a different filesystem? (so it mounts as ntfs, readonly is just fine)
[15:18] <warcry> doobeh, simply mount
[15:18] <bodwick> erdnase http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=892
[15:18] <elektr> g0: don't think there is an easy way to know where on the disk a block is located
[15:18] <warcry> but you have to specify the filesystem
[15:18] <yggdrasil> how do i switch from chrome being my default browser to firefox?
[15:18] <warcry> -t ntfs-3g
[15:19] <doobeh> warcry: ahh, okay-- I'll give that a go, thanks :)
[15:19] <warcry> xand, do u know something about the mixer problem?
[15:19] <JohnHeikkila> yggdrasil: Open firefox, click Edit-->Preferences/ settings
[15:19] <hmorel> i need someone to work with me?
[15:20] <rene_leyva> Hola a todos, buenos días en México y Latino América, buenas tardes en Europa y resto del mundo, jejejeje
[15:20] <JohnHeikkila> yggdrasil: Then..
[15:20] <yggdrasil> JohnHeikkila: yes ?
[15:20] <g0> elektr: i have an empty 500gig disk now, which is the best order of partitions to get max performance? can there be such a thing as best order of partitons? :P
[15:20] <Pici> !es | rene_leyva
[15:20] <hmorel> ayuda
[15:20] <warcry> rene_leyva, hola, pero este irc es en inglés
[15:20] <JohnHeikkila> yggdrasil: click the last tab
[15:20] <JohnHeikkila> yggdrasil: Additional settings or something
[15:20] <elektr> g0: could be different from drive to drive
[15:20] <yggdrasil> ahh got it
[15:20] <JohnHeikkila> yggdrasil: Then you should see a "System defaults" or something
[15:20] <JohnHeikkila> ;)
[15:20] <yggdrasil> didnt see it had tabs
[15:21] <rene_leyva> ok, si es lo que estoy viendo, aúnque le entiendo al inglés pero aunque fuese el primer irc quise saludar
[15:21] <yggdrasil> thats been pissine mge off for a few weeks
[15:21] <yggdrasil> chrome is ok , but i like to have all my tabs open in the same browser
[15:22] <hmorel> how do  i add a source code
[15:22] <warcry> no one knows about alsamixer cannot open mixer problem...
[15:22] <look> yggdrasil: Chromium is nice to
[15:22] <JohnHeikkila> look: I agree.
[15:22] <yggdrasil> it is
[15:22] <yggdrasil> but ill stick with ff.
 Wow I use to run you as my first Linux back in 1998
[15:23] <warcry> so, i will rm all ubuntu becase i can not rise the volume
[15:23] <JohnHeikkila> warcry: What?!
[15:24] <warcry> JohnHeikkila, i can't rise the sound volume
[15:24] <warcry> JohnHeikkila, because alsamixer simply does not work
[15:24] <kalleth> hey, i restarted my ubuntu box and x is now failing to start, and in addition it's not showing any output on the monitor whatsoever
[15:24] <warcry> neither amixer
[15:24] <JohnHeikkila> warcry: I.i
[15:24] <JohnHeikkila> warcry: What about gnome-volume-control
[15:24] <kalleth> it says fatal server error, no screens found
[15:25] <warcry> also it does not work
[15:25] <JohnHeikkila> weard
[15:25] <warcry> gnome-volume-control controls pulseaudio
[15:25] <JohnHeikkila> ohh
[15:25] <warcry> pulseaudio works great, the problem is in alsa
[15:25] <JohnHeikkila> so I have pulseaudio :/
[15:25] <JohnHeikkila> warcry: Why don't you use pulseaudio?
[15:25] <warcry> (pulseaudio works over alsa)
[15:25] <warcry> I use pulseaudio!
[15:25] <wscpc> hello,I from china.
[15:26] <Loneclock> hello, I am from china.
[15:26] <wscpc> i'm sorry.thank you!
[15:26] <warcry> JohnHeikkila, using pulseaudio you don't stop using alsa. the only different is that mixing is managed by pulseaudio, and not by alsa directly
[15:26] <wscpc> What nationality are you?
[15:27] <wscpc> Are you American?
[15:27] <Roasted> Does anybody here have an ATI video card? If so, do you have ANY video tearing? I'm beginning to wonder if I should get rid of my Nvidia card since I cannot avoid video tearing no matter what I do.
[15:27] <giffy> Does anyone know how I can enable 'full screen' youtube on Lucid?  I tried to put "OverrideGPUValidation = 1" in /etc/adobe/mms.cfg, but that still brings up videos that are not exactly full screen.
[15:27] <tracy69> Roasted, i have
[15:27] <JohnHeikkila> warcry: Oh, right
[15:27] <SmallR2002> Roasted: how old is the card?
[15:27] <tracy69> and i dont have any problems with ati card
[15:27] <Roasted> SmallR2002, about a year and a half.
[15:27] <SmallR2002> Roasted: i've had no end of issues with ati
[15:27] <Roasted> tracy69, you have an ATI and no video tearing? Likewise you too SmallR2002 ??
[15:28] <warcry> i had serious problems with an ati cards
[15:28] <tracy69> Roasted, i have ati hd4850
[15:28] <warcry> it is a matter of luck o.o
[15:28] <JohnHeikkila> !om | wscpc
[15:28] <Roasted> I know ATI used to suck hardcore, but I heard they have made things exponentially better than before.
[15:28]  * look hated 10.04 so much because of the graphics card problems
[15:28] <JohnHeikkila> !offtopic | wscpc
[15:28] <SmallR2002> i have ati, but i've always had issues with drivers till the last few releases
[15:28] <boywonder> hi,can anyone please give me a pointer onto how to run ubuntu from a usb stick( as an installed os)?
[15:28] <warcry> 10.04 did not worked with my other ati radeon 3200hd
[15:29] <SmallR2002> boywonder: look into unetbootin
[15:29] <JohnHeikkila> boywonder: Have you installed Ubuntu on an USB stick yet=
[15:29] <warcry> (with fglrx, i say)
[15:29] <Roasted> My nvidia works great - EXCEPT video tearing... sucks when watching movies... and makes me wonder if I need to throw XP or osmething on my HTPC if Ubuntu can't handle it due to tearing.
[15:29] <BiG-M> Hello, well i am new to ubuntu, so i want to know about if i could make hdd partitions like window and like i m used to install windows on C drive every time this shitt got corrupted or something like that, thanks alot!
[15:29] <SmallR2002> Roasted: from experience latest build of catalyst is the only way to handle ati
[15:29] <qqq> Yes i have.
[15:29] <warcry> what is video tearing!
[15:29] <boywonder> small im not talking about runnning uder try?
[15:29] <SmallR2002> Roasted: what are you using for video playing?
[15:29] <Roasted> warcry, during action scenes if you notice a ripple going through the screen horizontally, that's video tearing.
[15:29] <Roasted> SmallR2002, mostly VLC - but I've tried everything.
[15:29] <SmallR2002> Roasted: with vdpau you shouldn't have issues
[15:29] <warcry> ah, i notice it also
[15:29] <boywonder> opps sorrry for not hitting tab there SmallR2002
[15:30] <warcry> i use nvidia with a VGA monitor
[15:30] <Roasted> warcry, sorry to hear that - but I'm in the same boat. I use a nvidia with two dvi monitors, both tear.
[15:30] <SmallR2002> Roasted: my dad runs a three year old nvidia card using vdpau and gets perfect 1080p output
[15:30] <warcry> but only when using it heavily
[15:30] <Juggalo_X> anyone know how to get the displays mirrored on a laptop on docking station and an external monitor with the nvidia drivers. this is driving me insane
[15:30] <Roasted> SmallR2002, never heard of vdpau... what is this??
[15:30] <Juggalo_X> there is no mirror option
[15:30] <boywonder> JohnHeikkila,  i just did
[15:30] <kalleth> hey, does anyone know where ubuntu/gnome puts its xorg.conf so i can try and fix my x not starting problem?
[15:31] <SmallR2002> Roasted: look at xbmc's docs on it
[15:31] <SmallR2002> boywonder: look into debootstrap then
[15:31] <warcry> vsync does not fix video tearing?
[15:31] <Roasted> SmallR2002, ahhhhhhh xbmc. xbmc is what I was going to use for my HTPC too...
[15:31] <Roasted> warcry, for me? No. :(
[15:31] <SmallR2002> boywonder: be careful with grub though
[15:31] <JohnHeikkila> kalleth: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[15:31] <SmallR2002> Roasted: xbmc is very nice
[15:31] <Roasted> The only thing that helps video tearing is if I launch gnome shell, which the only reason that helps is because its refresh rate or something is half of the regular gnome session.
[15:31] <kalleth> JohnHeikkila: that file doesn't exist :(
[15:31] <kalleth> its gone
[15:31] <boywonder> yer ive been experiencing the newb grub disease!
[15:31] <kalleth> i rebooted today and my X wouldn't start at all, and i'm getting no output on my screen
[15:32] <Roasted> SmallR2002, I LOVE XBMC. Ill use it whether Im on XP or Ubuntu. I just want to use Ubuntu for myHTPC if possible.
[15:32] <JohnHeikkila> kalleth: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[15:32] <Roasted> SmallR2002, is this thing built into xbmc?
[15:32] <SmallR2002> Roasted: look into their docs for getting nvidia/vdpau working
[15:33] <JohnHeikkila> Hold SHIFT at your PC's startup,, then select the recovery mode and go to the root console
[15:33] <Roasted> SmallR2002, does this not work with ati?
[15:33] <SmallR2002> Roasted: vdpau is a video handling api for graphics cards
[15:33] <SmallR2002> Roasted: nope
[15:33] <JohnHeikkila> kalleth: Hold SHIFT at your PC's startup,, then select the recovery mode and go to the root console
[15:33] <kalleth> ose, John :)
[15:33] <JohnHeikkila> kalleth: then do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[15:33] <kalleth> *i shall try those
[15:33] <JohnHeikkila> okay.
[15:33] <JohnHeikkila> then
[15:33] <SmallR2002> Roasted: it's basically a way to pass video straight to the gpu for decoding and displaying, it gives you great output
[15:33] <JohnHeikkila> kalleth: After that, do "startx"
[15:33] <warcry> Roasted, i have no video tearing disabling compiz
[15:34] <JohnHeikkila> *run "startx"
[15:34] <look> kalleth: you need to rm the xorg.conf before reconfigure
[15:34] <yslyxqysl> i regret upgrading my ubuntu to 10.10 beta
[15:34] <Roasted> SmallR2002, nice, nice. I was thinking this was a stand alone video program, like vlc or something.
[15:34] <Roasted> warcry, I'm pretty sure I still did. But it sucks ca use I use docky so I need the compositing.
[15:34] <SmallR2002> Roasted: it takes a lot of latency out
[15:34] <kalleth> look: that won't be a problem i can't find an xorg.conf anywhere on disk
[15:34] <warcry> i know...
[15:34] <look> kalleth: oh then reconfigure should fix it just fine
[15:34] <bigfishy> i am having problem saving data to my friends wd my world book drive, i have some software he asked me to give him and gave me a his hdd.  Do i require him to change the permission on the drive so i can write to it, or is there a command i can enter into the terminal to allow me to have write access on this external hdd?
[15:34] <kalleth> which is strange as it was working perfectly prior to reboot
[15:34] <Archana_> Hi
[15:34] <warcry> that and other thing could be fixed when nvidia drivers use KMS
[15:35] <look> bigfishy: fdisk -l
[15:35] <look> bigfishy: find the driver should be either /dev/sdb or sdc
[15:35] <look> *drive
[15:35] <Roasted> SmallR2002, but if I go the ATI route, I can't use this - however you said catalyst is pretty bangin for ATI?
[15:35] <dpac_> yslyxqysl: Why, what bad did it do?
[15:35] <SmallR2002> Roasted: i get good fps on games but it seems to give worse video out than an older nvidia card
[15:36] <look> bigfishy: after which create a mount point 'sudo mkdir /dev/sdh1'
[15:36] <Roasted> SmallR2002, tearing, even with catalyst?
[15:36] <Archana_> I will get my new laptop delivered tomorrow , dell withOUT win seven preinstalled B-). 320 gb of new harddisk. I have never partitioned a fresh harddisk before. I won't use win 7 for now but i may install it in the future. I just need some help on how to set up partitions... (logical, extended, primary) .. Just some ideas please??
[15:36] <yslyxqysl> nautilus is the most terrible in 10.10 beta
[15:36] <Pici> yslyxqysl : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Maverick/10.10 support/discussion.
[15:36] <Johnm> rename u7_ u7_fb
[15:36] <Johnm> save
[15:36] <tracy69> Roasted, what card do you have?
[15:36] <SmallR2002> Roasted: maybe because i'm a long term nvidia fan and haven't used the correct settings, it appears in high action scenes at around the 720/1080 area
[15:36] <Roasted> tracy69, nvidia 9600gt
[15:36] <zbaka> hi, how can i do recursive grep in all files , that ens either with .pl or .pm?
[15:36] <look> bigfishy: then mount the drive at that point 'mount /dev/<your drive /dev/sdh1'
[15:36] <kalleth> look/JohnHeikkila: i've run the reconfigure but there's still no xorg.conf anywhere
[15:36] <warcry> tearing does not bother me, but if it did, i would activate vsync on xorg
[15:36] <dpac_> yslyxqysl: Is it elementary nautilus?
[15:36] <kalleth> there's an xorg.conf.d folder in /usr/lib/X11
[15:37] <kalleth> but that doesn't contain any either
[15:37] <Roasted> speaking of elementary nautilus - how do I remove it?
[15:37] <look> bigfishy: should let your wright to it now
[15:37] <look> Roasted: why?
[15:37] <tracy69> Roasted,  i have ati hd4850 latest catalyst and everything work perfect no problems with compiz etc etc even able to check gpu load and temp
[15:37] <warcry> i prefer 60 fps little teared that 20 slow beatiful fps
[15:37] <Roasted> look, I'm just curious how to remove it.
[15:37] <Roasted> tracy69, no tearing?
[15:37] <SmallR2002> docky or awn? i recently made my wife's new pc look like a mac, maybe i should have used docky instead of awn
[15:38] <Roasted> SmallR2002, docky and awn are both very similar.
[15:38] <tracy69> nothing everything perfect
[15:38] <look> Roasted: well you could probably use 'sudo apt-get uninstall nautilus' <--- but i don't know why you would
[15:38] <Roasted> look, I did that in synaptic, and it wanted to remove ubuntu-desktop with it.
[15:38] <Roasted> in fact I think awn doesnt require compositing to run...
[15:38] <look> Roasted: ...http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-105517.html
[15:39] <SmallR2002> Roasted: if i were you i'd run a custom distro for the htpc
[15:39] <SmallR2002> Roasted: roll your own using debootstrap maybe?
[15:39] <Roasted> SmallR2002, what for?
[15:39] <rmatte> Hi, I have a server running Ubuntu Server 10.04... while it's booting it just suddenly stops (right after it complains about the lat0-sun16 font), I have to hit escape to get it to continue booting.  Has anyone seen this issue before?
[15:40] <SmallR2002> Roasted: so it's slim and you know that libbigrandomglpackage-0 isn't sitting somewhere and using opengl when you don't want it too
[15:40] <rmatte> I have a few other servers that were made from the same VM image and boot perfectly fine
[15:40] <rmatte> not sure what's causing this
[15:40] <warcry> what distro should i try?
[15:40] <Roasted> SmallR2002, which one would you recommend for that?
[15:40] <SmallR2002> i use xbmc w/o a window manager
[15:40] <JohnHeikkila> warcry: lucid
[15:40] <kalleth> JohnHeikkila: i've restarted it holding shift, found the grub bootloader, tried to start both of the kernels installed (24 and 26) in recovery mode
[15:40] <kalleth> JohnHeikkila: but both of them black screen after they get to a certain stage on boot
[15:40] <JohnHeikkila> kalleth: And?
[15:40] <warcry> i am using mint, based on lucid
[15:40] <JohnHeikkila> hmm
[15:40] <SmallR2002> Roasted: either use the live cd from xbmc (ubuntu based) or roll your own distro from lucid
[15:41] <Roasted> SmallR2002, my plan was to have auto login + xbmc auto start, so you wouldnt really know what OS it is.
[15:41] <warcry> and today, i have no sound
[15:41] <kalleth> JohnHeikkila: i can ssh to the machine fine, but i'm not getting any output on the monitor at all
[15:41] <Oer> !mint
[15:41] <JohnHeikkila> kalleth: So did you wait a while or try CTRL+ALT+F1 and F7
[15:41] <warcry> mint is 99% lucid
[15:41] <janisozaur> I have a source for a project, which I've built. Using "sudo checkinstall" I've created a deb package, but only the "primary" was created and no -dev. how can I also provide -dev package?
[15:41] <kalleth> JohnHeikkila: i've been mashing various keyboard combinations without success for the last 20 minutes :)
[15:41] <kalleth> JohnHeikkila: obviously that's not all i've been doing, but :P
[15:41] <SmallR2002> Roasted: the one i have for my dad is based off of gentoo, but that was partially because he had such an awesome system i had to use it to compile something ;p
[15:41] <kalleth> JohnHeikkila: just tried it again, and no response :(
[15:42] <Roasted> hahaha very nice
[15:42] <JohnHeikkila> kalleth: Very weard
[15:42] <janisozaur> warcry, if it's 99% lucid, why use it instead of lucid?
[15:42] <Pici> warcry: Mint is still not supported here. Please use their support channel:  #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org
[15:42] <gougoutou> #unbuntu-fr
[15:42] <warcry> janisozaur, to give it a try
[15:43] <janisozaur> warcry, ah, ok
[15:43] <kalleth> JohnHeikkila: I think i've narrowed down the issue by looking at the log files to -something- to do with the kernel update ubuntu installed not playing nicely with the version of the nouveau drivers its using
[15:43] <warcry> and because ambiance theme from lucid makes artifacts on nvidia cards
[15:43] <gougoutou> #dedianfr
[15:43] <kalleth> JohnHeikkila: but i need to see an xorg.conf to fix that, and i can't find an xorg.conf on any of the disk

[15:43] <look> kalleth: not even in /etc?
[15:44] <kalleth> look: not in /etc, not in /etc/X11, not anywhere
[15:44] <kalleth> there is no file on the disk called xorg.conf
[15:44] <kalleth> i've done an updatedb | locate xorg.conf and nothing
[15:44] <look> kalleth: did you do the reconfigure?
[15:44] <JohnHeikkila> kalleth: That's why you need dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[15:44] <warcry> listening music is horrible u.u
[15:45] <kalleth> look:  yes
[15:45] <look> then the xorg.conf should be there.

[15:50] <powerinside> Hi, does anyone know how to adjust refresh rate of a dual screen config?
[15:50] <nouse> DARK_SKY There should be an icon in the top right of your desktop.  Looks like a circle with a line through it.
[15:50] <Roasted> SmallR2002, I'm still slightly confused on what you're referring to. Are you predicting bad mistakes as a result of me adding shortcuts in nautilus on the left pane to popular network places (samba shares) I frequently navigate to?
[15:50] <hsr> DARK_SKY: Did you try Ctrl+Alt+Del to logout and login back?
[15:50] <SmallR2002> Roasted: if they're all named the same, yup
[15:51] <Roasted> SmallR2002, they're not - they're different file servers.
[15:51] <Putr> O and a nother thing. I'll be connecting 2 screens at work. How hard is it to connect to screens on ubuntu (i'm quessing easy as pie, but i better ask)
[15:51] <SmallR2002> Roasted: weren't they all coming up as

[15:51] <elektr> kalleth: which gfx card?
[15:51] <Roasted> SmallR2002, not when they're mounted.
[15:51] <SmallR2002> aaah
[15:51] <SmallR2002> haha
[15:51] <Roasted> SmallR2002, if I would reboot and open home dir, I'd just see smb smb smb smb smb.
[15:51] <SmallR2002> that's just weird
[15:51] <vee> can any1 give an hint on a good guide to shell scripting, a basic guide
[15:51] <Roasted> SmallR2002, once I mount them it renames them to the location.
[15:51] <hsr> lol
[15:51] <kalleth> elektr: its an nvidia...er.. something
[15:51] <Roasted> SmallR2002, problem is when I have 12 of them, I have no clue which smb is which...
[15:52] <kalleth> elektr: i think its an FXsomethingorother
[15:52] <SmallR2002> vee: google has some good ones
[15:52] <DARK_SKY> There isnt such icon, so I guess I'll try the other, 10x guys

[15:54] <CkhiKuzad> are there any modifications for the software center in 10.04 so that when it is installing one program after it finished downloading, the second queued program will start downloading during the install?
[15:55] <pie_time> Putr, what did you want?
[15:55] <CkhiKuzad> it bothers me that i could mass download and install a lot of programs in 9.04 in less than 10 minutes, but now it takes a half hour for the same amount
[15:55] <warcry> CkhiKuzad, that is dpkg stuff

[15:58] <hsr> janisozaur: Refer back what my first question was on the same issue.
[15:58] <X_o> hi
[15:58] <janisozaur> hsr, given that your message started with "hello" I've assumed there was no previous question
[15:58] <hsr> coz_: Can you see "Speak whole document feature" from the menu bar?
[15:58] <X_o> i have a question about mozilla
[15:58] <X_o> Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (apt) isn't associated with any program.
[15:59] <coz_> hsr,  let me check hold on
[15:59] <hsr> janisozaur: Great assumption!
[15:59] <coz_> hsr,  I dont see it there
[15:59] <hsr> janisozaur: This was my previous question - How to enable 'Speak Document' feature in Okular?
[16:00] <hsr> coz_: Its in Tools
[16:00] <Keal> #defocus on Freenode is pretty much the pinnacle of 1984. The rules confine people discussing only small talk and tech issues. Every time anything with deeper meaning than such is brought up or any sincere emotion is shown outside the bounds of strictly what is expected of people, the individuals are found at fault and devoiced in-order to be re-educated in their own sense of self-worth towards
[16:00] <Keal> an end-justifies-the-means of devaluation.
[16:00] <coz_> hsr,  I do see it under tools .however it is greyed out at this point
[16:00] <Keal> ..in their own sense of self-worth towards an end-justifies-the-means of devaluation.
[16:01] <hsr> coz_: same here. how to enable it?
[16:01] <X_o> how i can fix this error I have to tried to update my flash on ubuntu ? Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (apt) isn't associated with any program.
[16:01] <coz_> hsr,  let me check hold on
[16:01] <hsr> coz_: which is what my basic question is
[16:01] <hsr> coz_: yeah
[16:01] <cabreak> hi
[16:01] <slow-motion> hi
[16:01] <Gnea> X_o: what address?
[16:01] <Keal> Is anyone working on a white power theme browser called "Nazilla" yet?

[16:02] <Gnea> !flash | X_o
[16:02] <Gnea> X_o: check that, you're doing it wrong
[16:02] <janisozaur> hsr, coz_ maybe check package suggestions (apt-cache show okular | grep -i suggests)

[16:04] <X_o> ok hsr
[16:04] <hsr> janisozaur: ya..
[16:04] <Gnea> hsr: I think you missed it - he's trying to install from the website, not from the repository
[16:04] <X_o> I did it and I have the same mess Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (apt) isn't associated with any program
[16:05] <yaaar> howdy
[16:05] <NAJI> is there any wiican irc?? i need help with wiican on ubuntu!!
[16:06] <X_o> hsr I didn't received any option
[16:06] <CkhiKuzad> NAJI: wicca is a religion. ubuntu is an OS, and religious questions are not technical support.
[16:07] <hsr> X_o: Is this the link you eventually wish to open - apt:adobe-flashplugin?channel=$distro-partner
[16:07] <hsr> iceroot: apt:adobe-flashplugin?channel=$distro-partner
[16:07] <coz_> hsr,   see if  KTTS  is available on the system
[16:07] <hsr> coz_:Is that a package?
[16:07] <hmorel_> bodwick
[16:07] <X_o> yes
[16:08] <Gnea> NAJI: you'll have to add a PPA
[16:08] <coz_> hsr,   yes  kttsd  must be installed for the speak options in okular to be enabled
[16:08] <NAJI> i said wiican
[16:08] <hsr> coz_:hold on
[16:08] <Gnea> CkhiKuzad: please learn how to read. he said wiican, not wican.
[16:08] <NAJI> it is a software!!
[16:08] <vu1kan> CkhiKuzad: wiican is a prog to use wiimotes in ubuntu
[16:08] <hsr> X_o: hold on
[16:08] <Gnea> https://launchpad.net/~wiicanteam/+archive/ppa
[16:08] <NAJI> it helps configuring wiimote easily!!
[16:08] <SmallR2002> i thought CkhiKuzad was rather funny
[16:08] <coz_> hsr,   so  sudo apt-get install kttsd
[16:09] <NAJI> i installed it
[16:09] <CkhiKuzad> SmallR2002, i wasn't trying to be funny. it was a misunderstanding
[16:09] <NAJI> Gnea, it is installed, it just won't detect my wiimote
[16:09] <NAJI> Gnea,whereas wmgui detects it!!
[16:09] <Gnea> NAJI: you should contact the wiican authors then
[16:09] <SmallR2002> CkhiKuzad: i gave you an opportunity to turn it into a joke :p

[16:10] <CkhiKuzad> and Gnea, a misunderstanding does not entitle you to insult me. that was unnecessarily rude.
[16:10] <X_o> hsr ok
[16:10] <hsr> X_o: huh?
[16:10] <Gnea> CkhiKuzad: you can drop it, too.

[16:11] <CaptainCanuck> anyone know when a full version of skype would be avaliable?
[16:11] <tracy69> Gnea,  youre right
[16:11] <Gnea> NAJI: I gave you the website.
[16:11] <NAJI> i cannot find it!!
[16:11] <coz_> hsr,  let me scroll back
[16:11] <CkhiKuzad> Gnea, how about we keep it civil? there is no reason to be a rude SOB to people.
[16:11] <Gnea> NAJI: maybe they don't have one... all of their info is on the website.
[16:12] <hsr> coz_:hold on.. i'll tell
[16:12] <hsr> coz_: apt:adobe-flashplugin?channel=$distro-partner
[16:12] <Gnea> CkhiKuzad: this is your last warning.
[16:12] <hsr> coz_: try to open this
[16:12] <maggu> hello i want to configure postfix, what is here wrong http://paste.org/pastebin/view/22189 ?
[16:13] <hsr> coz_: It should directly open the package manger to install but X-o says firefox is not opening rather unable to find any application to open
[16:13] <coz_> X_o,   that link is for getdeb
[16:13] <hsr> coz_: No its not
[16:13] <NAJI> Gnea, there is no irc on that
[16:13] <NAJI> Gnea, okay
[16:14] <NAJI> Gnea, thanks
[16:14] <hsr> coz_: What did you see after clicking it?
[16:14] <ThinWhiteDuke> how do i make ubuntu listen for a port
[16:14] <hsr> coz_: getdeb.. how?
[16:14] <ThinWhiteDuke> i'm trying to open a port then test it
[16:14] <coz_> hsr,   oh? mm  seems this is the same issue I have seen when others have used  getdeb  .... I see a pop up with "apturl"  and it wants an application chosen
[16:14] <X_o> coz no I'm tried to download from flash webside but my apt is authorize  some thing like that
[16:15] <Gnea> CkhiKuzad: it would behoove many of us if you'd google something that looks a little off-beat instead of assuming that it's something that it may not purport to be, you may find you'll get better feedback in the future by doing so. I did not mean to be insulting, I only meant to point out that we try to not jump to conclusions around here.
[16:15] <coz_> X_o,  understood.... are you not able to install  ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[16:15] <X_o> i did it
[16:15] <coz_> X_o,   ok
[16:15] <X_o> bbut doesn't work
[16:15] <coz_> X_o,   mm
[16:15] <SmallR2002> you know, i really do love gnu ddrescue
[16:15] <CkhiKuzad> Gnea, and what exactly is going to happen after it? you are going to report me for something that was started by you insulting me? or perhaps you will just ban me from the channel. Either way i've been civil this entire time, not trying to insult anyone. yet you tell me to learn how to read, then you tell me to drop the fact that you were blatantly rude, and then you threaten me? no, i will not drop it.
[16:15] <hsr> coz_: X_o: It opens directly with me here
[16:16] <CkhiKuzad> the last warning is what that is in reference to.
[16:16] <coz_> hsr,   thats interesting  it does not here
[16:16] <X_o> what version of ubuntu u have ?
[16:16] <hsr> coz_: X_o: w/o the need of restricted packages
[16:16] <hsr> coz_: X_o: 10.04
[16:16] <X_o> im using 9.04
[16:16] <Gnea> CkhiKuzad: alright, the very fact that you're now calling me names and going off on me is indicative that you'd rather start a fight than to follow channel guidelines and show respect.
[16:17] <X_o> do u think is that a problem ?
[16:17] <hsr> X_o: yeah i read that... but even in previous versions the problem was not there
[16:17] <Pici> CkhiKuzad, Gnea: Will both of you stop it already?
[16:17] <coz_> X_o,  no because I am also on 10.04
[16:17] <CkhiKuzad> Gnea, I'm sorry if it appears that i want to start a fight. it's the last thing i want to do. i just want to voice my opinion. now that i have voiced it, i am now able to, as you said "Drop it"
[16:17] <hsr> X_o: No its not, small linking for firefox is required, i am finding that
[16:17] <Gnea> CkhiKuzad: thank you.

[16:25] <SmallR2002> janisozaur: i'm tempted to map super # to it
[16:25] <coz_> SmallR2002,  ok on that image it looks like pipe  is just below the Backspace key
[16:26] <SmallR2002> i can use either a uk or us layout, i use us at work and uk at home
[16:26] <vu1kan> Tsims: system>admin>hardware drivers should find the most current drivers; idk about your wallpaper issue, srry
[16:26] <coz_> SmallR2002,  it is generally on the same key as the back slash
[16:26] <SmallR2002> coz_: i have it set as a uk keyboard though
[16:26] <coz_> SmallR2002,  mmm
[16:26] <CaptainCanuck> you cant change the keyboard settings?
[16:26] <SmallR2002> coz_: ah... now that seems to be another key i can't find...
[16:27] <SmallR2002> CaptainCanuck: sure i can, but it's way more fun this way :p
 what is the problem?
[16:27] <janisozaur> SmallR2002, :D
[16:27] <coz_> SmallR2002,  check the key to the left of Z
[16:27] <CaptainCanuck> o well, fun stuff belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:27] <SmallR2002> vinok: basically i have a us keyboard that i have set to uk layout and i'm trying to find a few keys that don't exist
[16:27] <CaptainCanuck> coz_: thats his shift key
[16:27] <Sherif> hardware drivers does not get me any thing
[16:28] <gsnedders> Yo, I'm getting "o: command not found" when trying to build Firefox. I have gcc and g++ installed.
[16:28] <CaptainCanuck> gsnedders: can you show us more lines from output?
[16:28] <coz_> SmallR2002,   well looking at actual uk layouts  the pipe is either just below the backspace or to the left of the z key
[16:28] <janisozaur> gsnedders, "sudo apt-get build-dep firefox"
[16:28] <gsnedders> janisozaur: Already run
[16:28] <SmallR2002> coz_: i think there isn't an actual key to map to it
[16:29] <SmallR2002> i might have to just count the keys on both keyboards and see if the uk one has more
[16:29] <CaptainCanuck> open gedit and go ape on all key combos
[16:29] <coz_> SmallR2002,  out of curiosity...why the change ?
[16:29] <Guest3130> changename Jakub
[16:30] <SmallR2002> coz_: i'm from the uk using a us laptop in the us

[16:31] <bindaz> hello everyone :)
[16:31] <coz_> SmallR2002,  I have no idea how to actually find them on an actual US keyboard though
 sometimes the pipe key is located in different places depending on the brand of the laptop =)
[16:31] <aeon-ltd> bindaz: hi
[16:31] <SmallR2002> vinok: yes, dell
[16:31] <bindaz> i have a question :) I am using ubuntu 8.1 on my laptop and desktop.I use an usb-modem on my laptop to connect to Internet, which uses ppp encapsulation.Now my laptop and desktop are connected via ethernet. I am also successful in setting up a dns server on my laptop, I can even resolve domains to IPs from my desktop.BUT I CANT PING
[16:31] <SmallR2002> coz_: i'm looking atm
[16:31] <warcry> my alsamixer seems to be a lost case
[16:31] <Emanon> is there a particular reason why facebook doesnt work in gwibber on 10.04 if so please tell me
[16:31] <warcry> bye
[16:31] <vinok> the pipe symbol is beside the enter key
[16:31] <warcry> i will think what to do...
[16:31] <SmallR2002> vinok: i sense that i might be trying to do the impossible
 you have to press shift
[16:32] <janisozaur> bindaz, ping laptop or the internet?
[16:32] <bindaz> i can ping laptop
[16:32] <janisozaur> bindaz, do you have ip forwarding enabled then?
[16:32] <Emanon> and possibly how to change that unfortunate fact as well
[16:33] <bindaz> ya i hav ........
 did you find the key your looking for?
[16:33] <bindaz> ip_forward right?
[16:33] <janisozaur> bindaz, yeah
[16:33] <SmallR2002> ah ha! there are 11 non-letter/number keys on a us keyboard and 12 on a uk one
[16:34] <gsnedders> CaptainCanuck: http://pastebin.com/TgGNx2FF
[16:34] <SmallR2002> due to repositioning of @ because £ is needed

[16:34] <countley> is the a way to download movie without "THE MAN" finding out
[16:34] <erdnase> Good day. I opened vb_web.exe (the file I need to start so I can download/install VisualBasic. And this error pops out: Unable to find a volume for file extraction. Please verify that you have proper permissions.
[16:35] <janisozaur> !wine | erdnase
[16:35] <bindaz> i did tcpdump on laptop ......n can see that the dns query form desk is actually forwarded
[16:35] <erdnase> janisozaur, I tried opening it on wine. Hmm, let me try again, maybe I messed up somewhere.
[16:35] <boywonder> hey,i just run ubuntu of a stick,i didnt realise it was that easy, one thing though the cd drive dont work??
[16:35] <bindaz> but not any other packets
[16:36] <janisozaur> bindaz, if you have ip_forward enbaled (the right one - there are multiple i believe) and no firewall set up then I can't help you further
[16:36] <janisozaur> erdnase, either way here is not a proper place to ask this question. try in #winehq
[16:37] <erdnase> Thanks janisozaur .
[16:37] <bindaz> ya no firewall.......ufw disable........
[16:37] <vipersrt10dodge> ok i have a question about ubuntu
[16:37] <pipegeek> literally a bible, or do you mean really good documentation?
[16:38] <boywonder> why dont my cd work under stick boot?
[16:38] <janisozaur> bindaz, when using irc, be sure to include the nickname of the person you're talking to in front of your message
[16:38] <janisozaur> !tab | bindaz
[16:38] <pipegeek> err.  Wow, apologies, didn't notice I wasn't scrolled all the way down
[16:38] <CaptainCanuck> boywonder: rephrase: 'stick boot'
[16:38] <maggu> hello i want to configure postfix, what is here wrong http://paste.org/pastebin/view/22189 ?
[16:38] <zatan> I want to know if there is some sort of way to retrieve a WPA key that is currently entered into my PC ?
[16:38] <boywonder> CaptainCanuck,  BOOTING FROM USB
[16:38] <bindaz> janisozaur:one of my friend insisted me to use libcap and libnet and write my own forwarding code.............would that be good?
[16:39] <boywonder> soz caps
[16:39] <CaptainCanuck> !tab | all
[16:39] <CaptainCanuck> interesting
[16:39] <CaptainCanuck> what other ! commands are there?
[16:39] <Ibertech> i have just come from the Samba chat and have been told that i have a problem with gnome would someone be able to help me
[16:39] <Pici> !factoids > CaptainCanuck
[16:39] <erdnase> !factiods
[16:40] <erdnase> (Too curious to not try, lol)
[16:40] <janisozaur> bindaz, it might work, but to do this I believe you'd need knowledge much more broad than this required to actually setup ip forwarding. also there is no need to reinvent the wheel
[16:40] <bugmanx2001> i changed over from pulseaudio to oss4 and then decided to revert back.  after attempted reversion, my sound card is no longer detected.  snd-hda-intel module is not loaded automatically and /proc/asound does not exist.  Situation is exactly like this forum post:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1556587   sudo aplay -l shows no soundcards.  really hoping that there is a sound guru here
[16:41] <bindaz> janisozaur: i have worked with theose libraries before
[16:41] <janisozaur> bindaz, then you shall be aware of pros and cons
[16:42] <ectospasm> anyone know how I can get a Linux guest to process repeating characters in VirtualBox?  If I hold down backspace it doesn't continuously delete characters.  I have to hit and release the backspace key repeatedly to delete several characters.  The host works OK, and I think the Win7 guest doesn't have the same problem.
[16:42] <ectospasm> it may just be Oracle Linux
[16:42] <SmallR2002> guys!
[16:42] <SmallR2002> i worked it out
[16:42] <Emanon> !congratulations
[16:42] <janisozaur> ectospasm, check system > prefs > keyboard options
[16:42] <CaptainCanuck> how many calories did you burn?
[16:43] <SmallR2002> when you switch the layouts right alt turns to an alt-gr, if you hit alt-gr+` you get |
[16:43] <Emanon> so no clues on facebook/gwibber?
[16:43] <SmallR2002> i would like a place in the
[16:43] <dajhorn> ectospasm: It is a bug in the guest.   Note that you're in the Ubuntu support channel, not the Oracle channel.
[16:43] <SmallR2002> #ubuntu book of fame
[16:44] <ectospasm> dajhorn: heh, yeah
[16:44] <boywonder> ill add ya#
[16:45] <ectospasm> janisozaur: keyboard options are set OK, they match the host.  I'll take dajhorn's take on it.
[16:45] <boywonder> why dont my cd work under stick boot?
[16:45] <CaptainCanuck> maybe your bios' boot order is set to check usb first
[16:46] <bandeira> hi there! i'm running on a ssh client and i would like to know if there is such a command to load gnome by console mode? e.g: startx* | *startx doesn't work at all.. i have no privilege for it.
[16:46] <boywonder> whats that mean?
[16:46] <Emanon> no hes already in CaptainCanuck hes booting successfully off a usb stick and his cd drive isnt working inside the live os
[16:46] <aeon-ltd> bandeira: xinit
[16:46] <boywonder> thanks Emanon
[16:47] <CaptainCanuck> so you mean 'sudo mount /dev/sr0' doesnt work?
[16:47] <boywonder> aha
[16:47] <boywonder> i didnt mount it
[16:47] <CaptainCanuck> lol

[16:51] <ffdsf> ive just installed ubuntu but it's slow as hell, what can I do with it?
[16:51] <Truly> hi kubuntu
[16:51] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: wwhat spec pc?
[16:51] <CaptainCanuck> next 3 ppl to post must post 10 times in one minute
[16:51] <erdnase> janisozaur, btw man, I just installed everything wine needed in synaptic, that fixed the problem, just letting you know.
[16:52] <aeon-ltd> Truly: uhh this is #ubuntu not #kubuntu
[16:52] <Pici> CaptainCanuck: Excuse me?
[16:52] <CaptainCanuck> yes?
[16:52] <ffdsf> 900 mhz single core, 128 mb ram, 7200rpm hd
[16:52] <theconartist> is there an easy way i can install from an iso into a hdd that i will put in another computer later?
[16:52] <Truly> i get crash report
[16:52] <pyrophelia> quick noobie question.  it's been a long time sine I setup apache and it seems I can't just install apache2.2-core or apache2.2-common.  I have to install a mpm package as well.  What is the point of the mpm packages?  Just for multithreading?
[16:52] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: what cpu? pentium 3?
[16:53] <ffdsf> yes
[16:53] <Tweaky> 486dx
[16:53] <CaptainCanuck> theconartist: installing without burning an iso to a disk?
[16:53] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: how much linux experience do you have?
[16:53] <theconartist> yea CaptainCanuck
[16:53] <Kai696> Hey there, I'm wondering what would be the best .ISO burning software?
[16:53] <dajhorn> pyrophelia: Yes.  Unless you're running a very busy site, then just use the Apache variant that the meta packages install.
[16:53] <CaptainCanuck> its not simple, ive heard it being done
[16:53] <ffdsf> not much I'm afraid
[16:54] <CaptainCanuck> iven't try it
[16:54] <Emanon> from what os Kai696?
[16:54] <Kai696> Ubuntu
[16:54] <Kai696> er..10.04 I think?
[16:54] <Emanon> brasero comes pre installed and its pretty good
[16:54] <Truly> crash report is here  ; http://easyupload.zzl.org/crashreport.html please help me out
[16:54] <Tweaky> right click it and choose burn to disc?
[16:54] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: ok this can happen 2 ways, remove junk from stock ubuntu, or start again from minimal ubuntu, its your choice
[16:54] <Kai696> Will it burn the image to the disk or as a data cd?
[16:54] <Emanon> yea that uses brasero Tweaky
[16:54] <theconartist> Captain_Awesome, would there be any obvious problems installing on this computer then moving the hdd to t he other?
[16:55] <theconartist> CaptainCanuck*
[16:55] <pyrophelia> dajhorn, na, just setting up a secure doc repository.
[16:55] <Tweaky> data
[16:55] <Kai696> Aye, need the image burnt not just a data disk however
[16:55] <vinok> hehehe Captain_Awesome ---> i like that one
[16:55] <Kai696> IE, Ubuntu's version of PowerISO
[16:55] <pyrophelia> dajhorn, the cluster this is being hosted really only uses it's cpu for mdadm.  is there a benefit to going to a multithreaded model?
[16:55] <pyrophelia> hosted on*
[16:56] <ffdsf> define junk??
[16:56] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: everytrh
[16:56] <Tweaky> as in you wanna burn an iso to disc and have the .iso on disc?
[16:56] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: everything you don't need
[16:56] <Emanon> stuff you don't use ffdsf
[16:56] <noisewaterphd> theconartist: linux is a lot better about figuring out new hardware on boot up than windows, but I would still install the OS on the machine you plan to use it on
[16:57] <Kai696> ... I'm wanting to burn my downloaded copy of Rome Total War (as ISO image) to the disk so when I put it in, it starts automatically just as if I just had the real disk
[16:57] <CaptainCanuck> no Captain_Awesome
[16:57] <Kai696> (DirecttoDrive, paid for:P
[16:57] <CaptainCanuck> o thats a real username
[16:57] <CaptainCanuck> my bad
[16:57] <Emanon> yea thats a normal burn Kai696
[16:57] <Kai696> So what do I use for that?
[16:57] <Emanon> right click burn
[16:57] <Kai696> Thanks
[16:57] <Emanon> and we'll just assume its a backup copy ok
[16:57] <dajhorn> pyrophelia: Unless you're running a very busy site, you don't need to care.   Apache will use processes and threads appropriately by default.
[16:58] <ffdsf> and how exactly removing software from installed system will make it faster?
[16:58] <pyrophelia> dajhorn, great.  thanks for the info
[16:58] <Kai696> Nope, not a backup, I downloaded it from Direct2Drive, (Paid for) it's a digital Copy
[16:58] <Emanon> cause they dont like media downloaders here (with the exception of ubuntu iso's i mean)
[16:58] <vinok> guys any of you experience slow pdf printing if the PDF is about 500k in size or more?
[16:58] <theconartist> What about putting the image on a partition of the hdd and booting to that to install?
[16:58] <Emanon> ahh ok good boy
[16:58] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: not directly, but uninstalling daemons and services that occupy cpu and ram
[16:59] <Emanon> yea if anything is gonna work the regular burn will
[16:59] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: also replacing to reduce load, eg replace gnome with openbox and tint2 as a panel
[16:59] <Kai696> It's actually a really good website, $20 I had the game, expansion, and it downloads at 2MB/s where is fast here lol
[16:59] <Emanon> otherwise you can just mount the iso directly
[17:00] <zzzed> ffdsf, you need more memory than 128M
[17:00] <aeon-ltd> zzzed: no ffdsf won't
[17:00] <Kai696> :) always love you guys, I'm in school for IT. Third day, Hopefully we cover linux quite well..
[17:00] <zzzed> aeon-ltd, if he wants to run a GUI he does
[17:00] <Emanon> he might get away with 128 with lubuntu or xubuntu
[17:00] <Emanon> if he really cuts it down
[17:00] <kagat> fvwm
[17:01] <aeon-ltd> zzzed: no he won't to run heavy flash maybe, but not for a gui
[17:01] <Emanon> well yea but thats just a window manager not a desktop environment
[17:01] <Emanon> but it will work
[17:01] <aeon-ltd> Emanon: who says a DE is in anyway better
[17:01] <mbeierl> anyone know what ever happened to the game called "slune" on jaunty?  I can't find it anymore on Lucid
[17:01] <Emanon> true aeon-ltd
[17:01] <kagat> X11+wm = GUI, but yeah obviously not a DE.
[17:01] <Emanon> i enjoy a de but i have the hardware for it
[17:02] <ffdsf> 128 mb is fine, I was able to play morrwind and dungeon siege 2 on this machine under w2k
[17:02] <Emanon> but i think he could pull off xfce or lxde
[17:02] <Emanon> really even with the memory leak in morrowind?
[17:02] <Emanon> too bad xfce "looks like your using a commodor 64"
[17:03] <aeon-ltd> Emanon: it doesn't have to
[17:03] <Emanon> it was a quote
[17:03] <ilovefairuz> mbeierl: http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/slune
[17:03] <tracy69> who has commodore? cuz i have got atari
[17:03] <kagat> Emanon - Isn't everyone using a c64?
[17:03] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: are you willing to learn about linux?
[17:03] <jo__> i have pet16 lol
[17:04] <mbeierl> ilovefairuz: thanks.  but does that mean it is not available anymore in higher distros?
[17:04] <kagat> jo__: shouldn't you be in #netbsd then?
[17:04] <Emanon> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGxUf24nOVc
[17:04] <jo__> yah lol
[17:04] <ilovefairuz> yes, probably because it hasn't been maintained since 2005, but you could download the package and install it, it will probably work
[17:05] <Pici> mbeierl: Its no longer supported upstream, was removed from debian and then us: see http://bugs.debian.org/521175
[17:05] <ffdsf> aeon-ltd: are you getting at I should build linux system from scratch
[17:05] <Emanon> that would be AWESOME
[17:05] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: no, but use a ground up distro
[17:05] <Emanon> could you build one for me too?
[17:06] <mbeierl> pici: ah!  thanks!  Couldn't find references to it and all the google hits I was coming across were really old...
[17:06] <ilovefairuz> Emanon: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/
[17:06] <Emanon> i know i almost did that
[17:06] <Emanon> but then i realize i dont want to give up on life yet

[17:11] <vinok> how do u guys do that? sorry noob here
[17:11] <dajhorn> masterBIGwilly: If you have a DBase file, then try the dbview package.  If you need to run DBase, then you'll need to install it in an emulator.
[17:11] <hsr> aeon-ltd: Sorry i wasn't testing ubottu
[17:11] <aeon-ltd> !ubottu | vinok
[17:11] <mbeierl> the jaunty package for slune works in lucid, btw... in case there's anyone looking for a little nostalgia from ubuntus past :)
[17:11] <vinok> !ubottu
[17:11] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: you still here?
[17:12] <ffdsf> ground-up distro like cmd line-only? will I have problems with sound, 3d, flash automounting, microsoft network and other 21st century desktop wonders?
[17:12] <hsr> mbeierl: Yes
[17:12] <vinok> how do u play with the bot?
[17:12] <Emanon> read the links he sent you
[17:12] <hsr> vinok: Don't play with the bot. Only use when required. http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi
[17:12] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: some maybe, depends on your hardware, but its all part of the learning process
[17:13] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: but the gains are that you have the lightest system (with a package manager and community) possible
[17:13] <vinok> hsr: sorry wrong interpretation...
[17:13] <Emanon> seriously try xubuntu or lubuntu they are surprisingly usable
[17:14] <ffdsf> well and what you'd advise to replace gnome with?
[17:14] <Emanon> lubuntu uses lxde
[17:14] <Emanon> xubuntu uses xfce
[17:14] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: yeah, if you have the time try Emanon's idea then try a ground up distro if its too slow still
[17:14] <Emanon> both are quite lightweight
[17:14] <aeon-ltd> ffdsf: imo, openbox
[17:15] <CaptainCanuck> xfce is more lightweight
[17:15] <kagat> ffdsf - maybe gnustep.
[17:15] <Emanon> or if you want to really keep it light try peppermint
[17:15] <DAGr8> guys ever since I typed the  "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner"
[17:15] <Emanon> lxde base most large apps are web based
[17:15] <Emanon> ubuntu base so you have synaptic and the good default repos
[17:15] <DAGr8> I get this E:Malformed line 54 in source list etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)
[17:15] <aeon-ltd> CaptainCanuck: its not, openbox is much lighter than xfce
[17:15] <Emanon> so take the line out DAGr8
[17:16] <DAGr8> so I reboot vmare and now I get an error on login
[17:16] <DAGr8> how ?
[17:16] <hsr> DAGr8: Where did you typed it?
[17:16] <DAGr8> im on vmare and fore some eason I have no gui just console
[17:16] <DAGr8> in console
[17:16] <CaptainCanuck> i was only comparing xfce and lxde
[17:16] <Emanon> alt+f2 then gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[17:16] <hsr> DAGr8: oh..
[17:16] <CaptainCanuck> hay guys, whats my hostname?
[17:17] <Emanon> or in a terminal just sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list
[17:17] <kagat> DAGr8: vi /etc/apt/sources.list - then ":57" then "dd" then ":wq"
 !command
[17:17] <DAGr8> kagat you mean 54 not 57 right ?
[17:17] <vinok> waaah i dont get it at all  =(
[17:17] <Emanon> capncanuc
[17:18] <kagat> DAGr8: yes... yes... I do.
[17:18] <ffdsf> kk trying open box now

[17:19] <coz_> DAGr8,  but on a virtual machine I am not sure that works
[17:20] <hsr> DAGr8: I won't work on vmware
[17:20] <hsr> DAGr8: It won't work on vmware
[17:20] <vinok> !welcome |vinok
[17:21] <hsr> coz_: Have you used Tunapie? Any idea if there are any packages like that?
[17:21] <hsr> !tunapie
[17:21] <area51pilot> I cant print to a network printer, drivers insalled, printer configured, test page sent ... but no print job
[17:21] <Psychodelius> hsr: the whole OS? don't think so....but if someone could create a mobile version, that would be good
[17:22] <hsr> Psychodelius: No.. only the mobile version
[17:22] <nafri> hello, is there a way to replace text recursively inside files located in a folder and it's subfolder
[17:22] <Emanon> explain further what you mean nafri?
[17:22] <hsr> nafri: Yes but only using a script
[17:22] <vinok> hey hsr, thanks... i think im getting a grip with bot thingy
[17:22] <ilovefairuz> nafri: use 'sed'
[17:22] <hsr> vinok: glad.
[17:23] <hsr> !sed
[17:23] <nafri> Emanon: I want to search/replace text inside many files recursively... as my files are in a folder and there are other subfolders aswell
[17:23] <Emanon> hsr: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Mobile
[17:23] <nafri> hsr: where can I get that script?
[17:24] <Emanon> like change all instances of blah to say joe or something like that?
[17:24] <ilovefairuz> hsr: http://www.grymoire.com/Unix/Sed.html

[17:24] <brandon420> anyone know how to get the pictures off my camera on ubuntu?
[17:24] <hsr> Yeah.. right i remember now
[17:24] <ilovefairuz> nafri: what exactly are you trying to replace?
[17:24] <CaptainCanuck> e2fsck -c
[17:25] <ejv> find $PATH -type f -exec sed -i 's/blah/joe/g' {} \;
[17:25] <ejv> done.
[17:25] <coz_> brandon420,  is the camera recognized?
[17:25] <Emanon> plug it in brandon420?
[17:25] <hsr> nafri: go with what ilovefairuz suggests
[17:25] <brandon420> coz_ yes it is.
[17:25] <mbeierl> CaptainCanuck: the find/sed - won't that just output to stdout?
[17:25] <jo__> anyone help with evolution email configure hotmail recieves fine but wont send..???
[17:25] <ilovefairuz> brandon420: no cable?
[17:25] <brandon420> but it fails to mount.
[17:25] <coz_> brandon420,  ok and did a camera icon  show up on the Desktop/
[17:25] <coz_> brandon420,   ah
[17:25] <CaptainCanuck> mbeierl: its an example
[17:25] <Emanon> jo__: think its smtp.hotmail.com
[17:25] <brandon420> nope.
[17:26] <jo__> will try
[17:26] <mbeierl> CaptainCanuck: ah, ok.  wasn't sure if you were suggesting that as the final solution :)
[17:26] <coz_> brandon420,  mm  what make and model is this camera?
[17:26] <CaptainCanuck> ejv: got the details of that command
[17:26] <Emanon> he might have that turned off brandon try the places menu
[17:26] <ejv> CaptainCanuck: pardon?
[17:26] <hsr> ilovefairuz: there was a gui as well for it, rigth?
[17:26] <DAGr8> Kagat , after :dd I get E492 not an editor command: dd
[17:26] <Emanon> or Applications>Graphics>F-Spot
[17:26] <ilovefairuz> brandon420: in a terminal type: sudo tail -f /var/log/messages and then plug it out and back in, pastebin the messages that show up
[17:26] <ilovefairuz> !paste | brandon420
[17:26] <mbeierl> nafri: http://www.delphifaq.com/faq/perl/f595.shtml for search and replace across many files
[17:26] <kagat> DAGr8: Not :dd... just dd
[17:26] <brandon420> kodak easyshare z740 coz_
[17:27] <DAGr8> enter before wq ?
[17:27] <nafri> ilovefairuz: I 've a word that I want to replace with another one
[17:27] <DAGr8> kagat
[17:27] <DAGr8> enter before wq ?
[17:27] <kagat> DAGr8: Not necessary - but one is after.
[17:27] <DAGr8> w10 warniong changing file
[17:27] <coz_> brandon420,  try   sudo mkdir /mnt/camera  then   sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera/-t vfat -o umask=000
[17:27] <DAGr8> wq right away then ?
[17:28] <ilovefairuz> nafri: use ejv's command
[17:28] <ejv> nafri: pay attention, i've given you the command above
[17:28] <kagat> DAGr8: You should see the bad deb line disappear. The :wq *(or :wq!) will then write and quit
[17:28] <rolandpish> In Xubuntu+Thunar shift+delete is not deleting a file permanently but sending it to the trash. How can I fix this?
[17:28] <brandon420> ilovefairuz, coz_  i got it, i just had to click the do nothing, then open the folder.
[17:28] <coz_> brandon420,  you could also try to mount it in f-spot
[17:28] <coz_> brandon420,  cool
[17:29] <brandon420> Thanks coz_ and ilovefairuz
[17:29] <ejv> and don't tell someone to use perl to do a search and replace, when it can easily and more efficiently be accomplished using sed
[17:29] <brandon420> coz_, you are aalways soo helpful
[17:29] <vinok> coz_, that does the -o umask=000 means?
[17:29] <kagat> ejv: perl is probably more efficient then your sed.
[17:29] <coz_> brandon420,  no problem ...glad you  got the photos   I know this can be painful when the camera doesn work properly
[17:30] <ilovefairuz> kagat: barely
[17:30] <coz_> ViN86,  the umask should unmask everything in that directory
[17:30] <kagat> voz: That umask makes new files have permissions 777.
[17:30] <ejv> depends on the type of string substitution, prolly an offtopic discussion though ;)
[17:31] <kagat> voz: read write and execute for owner, group, world
[17:31] <vinok> so same as chmod? ok got it
[17:31] <coz_> ViN86,  yep and kagat  explained it better :)
[17:32] <kagat> vinok: Well a bit of inversion on chmod actually...
[17:32] <semanticpc> is the Ubuntu Server edition compatible with intel i5 ?
[17:33] <aeon-ltd> semanticpc: yes
[17:33] <KillerKristin> hi everyone
[17:33] <aeon-ltd> semanticpc: why?, what were you worried about?
[17:33] <vinok> kagat, yes it is indeed an inversion, instead of using 7, for r-w-x umask use 0.. new knowledge learned thanks
[17:33] <area51pilot> I cant print to a network printer, drivers installed, printer configured, test page sent ... but no print job
[17:33] <kevr> :O
[17:33] <DAGr8> kagat
[17:33] <kagat> vinok... yes, and 1 instead of 6, 2 instead of 5, etc.
[17:33] <KillerKristin> I LOVE Ubuntu
[17:33] <DAGr8> aftr dd line disapeared but then I cant type anythin
[17:34] <KillerKristin> its such a nice OS compared to Windoze
[17:34] <DAGr8> sry im doin manythings at once, thx for helpin
[17:34] <kagat> DAGr8: What are you trying to type... you should be saving and exiting the text file.
[17:34] <ViN86> coz_ what? i never wrote anything heh
[17:34] <DAGr8> wellim in console you said to type :wq
[17:34] <coz_> ViN86,  sorry   probably tabbing incorrectly here
[17:34] <semanticpc> aeon-ltd: just making sure before I install it ..... thanks :)
[17:34] <DAGr8> to save and exit
[17:35] <DAGr8> but how do I save and exit
[17:35] <ViN86> coz_ lol yea think you meant vinok
[17:35] <ViN86> heh
[17:35] <coz_> KillerKristin,  yes it is now the trick is to get the knowledge out to as many people as possible :)
[17:35] <aeon-ltd> semanticpc: wait you've already got the i5?, why didn't you just try it in dualboot?
[17:35] <coz_> ViN86,  probably :)
[17:35] <kagat> DAGr8: the ":wq!" command in vi will save and quit... if your on the console you should be done.
[17:35] <ViN86> coz_ it was good advice nonetheless hehe ;)
[17:35] <DAGr8> well I cant type anythin after dd
[17:35] <KillerKristin> my good friend got my hooked on Ubuntu back in version 7 but I didnt like it as much as I do now
[17:35] <KillerKristin> me
[17:35] <DAGr8> its like I have to 'get out of dd'
[17:35] <roshan> hi
[17:36] <semanticpc> semanticpc: thats alright I'll try ... I am not going to use Windows anyways
[17:36] <ejv> i prefer to keep ubuntu to the priveleged few, tell no one KillerKristin
[17:36] <ejv> it's called job security ;)
[17:36] <roshan> @jpds: hi
[17:36] <KillerKristin> lol ejv
[17:36] <kagat> DAGr8: I'm confused... I thought we were just fixing your broken sources list.
[17:36] <ejv> im actually not kidding.
[17:36] <kagat> ejv: Take out distrowatch first.
[17:36] <DAGr8> there is blue ~ thta prevent me form going lower then the line where the bcursor is
[17:36] <DAGr8> yes we were
[17:36] <ViN86> KillerKristin, i started on slackware 9, talk about a steep learning curve lol
[17:36] <DAGr8> im still in the broken sourse list
[17:37] <KillerKristin> im a tech myself but would love to try to convert a company to Ubuntu one day
[17:37] <DAGr8> line disapeared after dd but I  m not back to console now I cant type anything
[17:37] <DAGr8> Im stillin the list
[17:37] <kagat> DAGr8: Press escape once, then ":wq!"    :-P
[17:37] <DAGr8> there is now a blue ~ instead of line 54 and its like its waiting for me to ddo somethion..
[17:37] <ejv> a ridiculous endeavor.
[17:37] <ViN86> area51pilot, its hard to get off of office
[17:37] <LinuxFetus> Hey, I just downloaded an Ubuntu 10.04 32bit iso image.  I'm trying to put it on a USB and install it on a friend's computer.  When I use System > Administration > Startup Disk Creator, make the USB, put the USB in his computer, change the BIOS to look for the USB first for an OS, it gives the following error: vesamenu.c32: not a com32r image .  I'm using Ubuntu 10.10
[17:38] <ViN86> its like crack for office people
[17:38] <KillerKristin> area51pilot been chipping away at IE with 90% of the people I work with
[17:38] <kagat> area51: You can use Office in linux... I have, it's just as bad as on windows.
[17:38] <area51pilot> ViN86: I know, thats my issue in the office here
[17:38] <DAGr8> huh
[17:38] <Xunie> Is ubuntu netbook edition speed optimized? (eg: stripped of useless features)?
[17:38] <boywonder> hi the man has gone,can anyone please tell me how to ad my cdrom to fstab?
[17:38] <ilovefairuz> DAGr8: use nano, it's infinitely simpler than vim
[17:38] <vinok> DAGr8, escape key
[17:38] <DAGr8>  kagat all I did was move cursor to the top , and then scroll down again and then I could type
[17:38]  * ViN86 loves nano
[17:38] <X-Sleepy-X> +1
[17:38] <DAGr8> escape key did nt work
[17:38] <DAGr8> is it because im in vmare
[17:38] <DAGr8> anyways problem solved :)
[17:38] <DAGr8> thx
[17:39] <ilovefairuz> boywonder: why would you want to do that?
[17:39] <boywonder> becuase i was told to
[17:39] <DAGr8> be back later with future problems
[17:39] <kagat> DAGr8: I don't think so... the escape should just exit editing mode (and go back to command mode)... vi is a bit complicated.
[17:39] <boywonder> ive mounted it
[17:39] <DAGr8> thx alot guys ,
[17:39] <wildeja> Hello and good day to all
[17:40] <vinok> DAGr8, use nano instead of vi
[17:40] <DAGr8> yea im back to vconsole now im happy btw just fyi guys I need java5 since im tryin to compile for android and java6 is NOT compatible
[17:40] <kagat> ilovefairuz: nano is good, but I don't know how to jump to an arbitrary line in it.
[17:40] <DAGr8> im fixed now btw
[17:40] <boywonder> maybe because im live booting?
[17:40] <kagat> DAGr8: Java 5 isn't either... you need the android sdk and ndk.
[17:40] <DAGr8> kagat exactly I tried earlier and end uyp rebooting my vm
[17:40] <DAGr8> got all that but andorid.com wants me to use java5 not 6 ..
[17:40] <DAGr8> neways thx again
[17:40] <Xunie> Anyone? Is Ubuntu Netbook edition lighter to run than Ubuntu Desktop?
[17:41] <boywonder> ilovefairuz, ?
[17:41] <wildeja> Question: How do i get video chat working in Ubuntu 10.04? (I have tried alot of programs i.e. Pidgin, Kopete, Empathy) but no joy, Please help)
[17:41] <vinok> wildeja, try skype
[17:42] <kagat> wildeja: I've gotten meebo working. (and yes skype as well).
[17:42] <ViN86> DAGr8, I'd use Eclipse for the IDE
[17:42] <ilovefairuz> boywonder: if you're booting from live cd, then making changes to fstab doesn't make any sense, and besides, the CD drive gets mounted in a "special" away. it gets "polled" regularly to check if there's a CD inside and if so, it gets automatically mounted
[17:42] <ViN86> has an adroid plugin
[17:42] <aeon-ltd> Xunie: meh, its roughly the same/slightly lighter
[17:42] <KillerKristin> anyone know where I can find a driver for the Canon iR-ADV C5030
[17:42] <boywonder> my cd wont read files
[17:42] <sacarlson> boywonder: normaly live boot is a temp thing and even if you change fstab in a live boot it will be gone on reboot anyway.
[17:42] <wildeja> Thanks all, will go try :)
[17:43] <Xunie> aeon-ltd, so really, installing Ubuntu Desktop edition on an netbook won't really make a difference?
[17:43] <aeon-ltd> Xunie: no, but the netbook remix has a easier/larger gui so its easier for netbook trackpads other than that its the same
[17:44] <Xunie> aeon-ltd, oh what ever. :P
[17:44] <negev> hi, is it possible to upgrade from 8.04.4 LTS to 9.10?
[17:44] <Spooks> I could not get ubuntu desktop to install on my sony vaio but netbook version works a treat
[17:44] <boywonder> sacarlson, why is live boot a temprary thing?
[17:44] <Xunie> aeon-ltd, it's just the GUI! ion3 > Gnome anyways. :P
[17:44] <dpac_> negev: I don't think that should be a problem
[17:44] <coz_> negev,   one version up at a time i would assume  or  upgrade to lucid
[17:44] <sacarlson> boywonder: the files in /home/youraccount are just kept in ram so at reboot they are not saved.  same is true in /etc  all files are in ram
[17:44] <X-Sleepy-X> boywonder: you could make it remember things by creating a live usb...
[17:45] <kagat> negev - Why 9.10? (And not 10.04)?
[17:45] <negev> kagat: because my other box is on 9.10
[17:45] <negev> and its production so i don't want to mess with it atm
[17:45] <KillerKristin> I can not find a driver for this imageRunner by Canon :(
[17:45] <boywonder> sacarlson,  thats what im talking about
[17:45] <ilovefairuz> kagat: alt + g
[17:45] <kagat> negev - Got you... then you should probably do a clean install on your staging/dev box.
[17:45] <negev> how do i see what the intermediate versions are?
[17:45] <vinok> boywonder, as X-Sleepy-X said, but make it as persistent live usb
[17:45] <negev> why?
[17:45] <aeon-ltd> Xunie: you were gonna tile?!!!?!?!? nice hard to find ubuntu tilers these days, most of them are on arch :)
[17:45] <ilovefairuz> kagat: to jump to a line in nano
[17:45] <negev> clean install takes time :(
[17:46] <negev> why can't i just s/hardy/karmic in /etc/apt/sources, apt-get update and then dist-upgrade?
[17:46] <Xunie> aeon-ltd, *cough**cough*, tiling windowmanagers don't work on Ubuntu? What have you been smoking?
[17:46] <kagat> ilovefairuz: Great, but I already know vi. (Same reason I haven't really learned emacs).
[17:46] <aximili> hi there
[17:46] <coz_> KillerKristin,  did you look here ?   http://yoonkit.blogspot.com/2007/12/canon-imagerunner-and-ubuntu.html
[17:46] <aeon-ltd> Xunie: they do, but you don't see a lot of the users
[17:46] <dpac_> !upgrade | negev
[17:46] <kagat> negev: Base system would be out of sync... basically you'd be borked.
[17:46] <aeon-ltd> Xunie: personally though i like dwm :)
[17:46] <negev> ok
[17:47] <boywonder> ok sorry for the mispronounciation im meant persistaent live boot!
[17:47] <Xunie> aeon-ltd, bleh, ion3 was my first tiling window manager, I never had to leave my keyboard, even for browsing.
[17:47] <dpac_> negev: "To avoid damaging your running system, upgrading should only be done from one release to the next release (e.g. Ubuntu 9.04 to Ubuntu 9.10) or from one LTS release to the next (e.g. Ubuntu 6.06LTS to Ubuntu 8.04LTS)." Directly from the ubuntu wiki.
[17:47] <Xunie> Ion3 + Chrome + Vimium == awesome.
[17:47] <dpac_> negev: You should consider upgrading from 8.04 LTS to 10.04 LTS.
[17:47] <boywonder> hello!!
[17:48] <kagat> dpac_: He needs to match a production environment... but yeah... that would have been my suggestion.
[17:48] <coz_> KillerKristin,  also check this site    http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting
[17:48] <sacarlson> boywonder: well I know you can have a usb flash disk boot with persistants but cd's are read only. so maybe you setup a partition for your /home/account?
[17:48] <KillerKristin> its not too big of a deal since I have another printer installed which is fully supported
[17:49] <vinok> boywonder, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent check this out
[17:49] <KillerKristin> I am shocked that most companies dont develop Linux Drivers though
[17:49] <ejv> ion3 looks terrible lol
[17:49] <kagat> KillerKristin: Most companies don't develop their own drivers.
[17:50] <ejv> vimium looks cool tho
[17:50] <kagat> ejv: I still like docky... it looks cool to me. :)
[17:50] <boywonder> if i go away reboot and have a /home i aint gonna be to happy
[17:50] <X-Sleepy-X> kagat: Most developers don't drive their own companies... ;)
[17:51] <kagat> X-Sleepy-X: True that.
[17:51] <aeon-ltd> KillerKristin: its cos they've no obligation to, i mean why would a company hire a team of developers and testers just to cater for linux users?
[17:51] <vinok> speaking of drivers, have any of you experience slow pdf printing... i installed an .RPM driver to my ubuntu box using alien
[17:51] <vinok> but printing pdf is taking too long
[17:52] <KillerKristin> cause Linux is getting very popular?
[17:52] <kagat> vinok: Yes... but I don't know how to fix that.
[17:52] <KillerKristin> :D
[17:52] <kagat> KillerKristin: It is?
[17:52] <chuy_max> hi guys, any folder/file comparison utility that you can recommend me?, I'm looking for any, that works either under Linux or Windows :).
[17:52] <sacarlson> vinok: I have a canon printer and it took some time to do something like clean it's heads?  then sudenly it started to work after about 30 secounds
[17:53] <KillerKristin> kagat: hence the big smile since I know it isn't right now but will be
[17:53] <chuy_max> I've used cmp but it is a pain in the ass to compare file by file, unless I use a bash script, but that would take time to create :)
[17:53] <dpac_> chuy_max: diff if they are all text files. You can use its recursive switch for folders
[17:53] <vinok> kagat, let me know if you come across a fix ok
[17:53] <mika__> hi, are there any news about an updated choqok in the repo? the current one it's not working for a week now.. :(
[17:53] <chuy_max> dpac_, can it compare binary files?
[17:53] <kagat> chuy: For binary files use xdelta.
[17:54] <sacarlson> vinok: but the secound page and others took much less time.
[17:54] <dpac_> chuy_max: Unfortunately, it can't
[17:54] <chuy_max> kagat, awesome, I will check that :)
[17:54] <vinok> sacarlson, just cleaning the heads? hmm.. let me try that
[17:54] <chuy_max> I appreciate your answers :)
[17:54] <qdb> hello. is it possible to download source of packege with synaptic? how?
[17:55] <taranis> check sources in software sources ..
[17:55] <sacarlson> vinok: I don't know what it was doing I'm just guessing.  but it just seemed to start working after the first page.  then I printed other files with little delay.
[17:56] <qdb> when i write packegae name and search only one package show up/appear - binary package deb file
[17:56] <Putr> hey guys, can you recommend me a torrent client for ubuntu? (i used utorrent on win)
