[09:22] <RWHR> >	logan_wolf: More than likely not, I've just done the "sudo chmod 777 backgrounds" command and then copied the files across.
[09:22] <KE1HA> sacarlson:  also, the BIOS can name the differently due to the port they are physically attached too, but the OS sees it as sda sdb sdc etc
[09:22] <jcpennerson> goddamn ubuntu! argh
[09:22] <Ximal> !languange jcpennerson
[09:22] <jcpennerson> sorry
[09:22] <rww> needs more pipe
[09:23] <Ximal> i spellt it wrongt .. againt
[09:23] <sacarlson> KE1HA: yes but to simplify for the layman I just tell them to give it the smalist number.  what more can you do to make it simple?
[09:23] <jcpennerson> i am having quite the problem with ubuntu
[09:23] <KE1HA> jcpennerson: are you trying to do ?
[09:24] <sacarlson> KE1HA: by default grub2 installs on the smalist sda
[09:24] <jcpennerson> This is my problem : I have a Dell Pavillion dv9500 with nvdia graphics card. when i try to install ubuntu (or even, try the 'use ubuntu without installation' mode), it crashes 90% of the time. So i read up on it, apparently its a driver problem and i need to add the line i915.nomodeset=1 to my etc/default grub file. is this correct ?
[09:25] <KE1HA> sacarlson:  it installs where ya tell it too /dev/sda or hda or you can selct another first part from sdc is you have 3x drives
[09:25] <maco> jcpennerson: you can test this by hitting any key while at the "install or run without install" screen and then going to options and setting that as part of your boot line
[09:26] <sacarlson> KE1HA: yes but without telling it (and that's what many people do) it goes to sda  so in hopes that's what they did maybe it will fix it.
[09:26] <jcpennerson> yea i read that in one of the paste-bins but when i hit any key, it does take me to the command line where i can see what packages are being loaded or not but i cannot type anything there.
[09:26] <KE1HA> maco:  IS THAT NOMODSET 1 OR 0  though I can't remember.
[09:26] <maco> KE1HA: 1
[09:26] <KE1HA> SRI abt the caps
[09:27] <maco> KE1HA: well actually....
[09:27] <maco> KE1HA: i think its i915.modeset=0  ... not nomodeset
[09:27] <KE1HA> yes, thats what I though, was 0 ..
[09:27] <RWHR> logan_wolf: More than likely not, I've just done the "sudo chmod 777 backgrounds" command and then copied the files across.
[09:28] <KE1HA> jcpennerson:  also are you using the Desktop ISO or the ALT ISO ?
[09:28] <sacarlson> KE1HA: one of the problems I found is that if I give someone more than one solution they just get confused and don't know what to do.  the problem with ubuntu and linux is there is always another way.
[09:28] <shawn146-ubuntu9> oiyh
[09:28] <shawn146-ubuntu9> ubuntu crashes
[09:28] <jcpennerson> i have no idea Ke1Ha- i downloaded ubuntu on a disk from the website and installed it
[09:29] <jcpennerson> so if i go to terminal, modify the grub line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i915.modeset=0", it will solve all my problems ?
[09:29] <shawn146-ubuntu9> whats the gtk command for installing gtk?
[09:29] <KE1HA> jcpennerson:  another option, that scan help get you though the install, if it's a graphivs crash, is using the Alternate ISO, which is the debian-installer.
[09:30] <fanjabi> whenever i install or remove something i get an error: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[09:30] <jcpennerson> so how do i use desktop ISO ?
[09:30] <KE1HA> jcpennerson:  the i915 hack solves some problems, not all.
[09:30] <castor> anyone else has problems with ipod touch
[09:30] <jcpennerson> u mean i gotto re-download ubuntu desktop installer and do this all over again ? *gasp*
[09:30] <castor> idevice info will show all info but ipod wont show up on desktop
[09:30] <KE1HA> I wish I could solve the bug between my brain and my keyboard though :-)
[09:31] <logan_wolf> RWHR, try sudo chmod -R 777 backgrounds
[09:31] <elk1988> hello all
[09:31] <jcpennerson> ke1ha so do u think i should try this ?
[09:31] <KE1HA> jcpennerson:  Yes, it's the alternate ISO , same arch, i386 or AMD64 whichever you need / want.
[09:31] <Strashniq2> hello ,how can i revert to Xfree86 4.5.0 ?
[09:31] <elk1988> what help my please
[09:32] <logan_wolf> elk1988, dont ask for help just float your query
[09:32] <jcpennerson> so should i re-download ubuntu desktop ISO and do this all over again or try the i915 hack ? what do u recommend ?
[09:32] <shawn146-ubuntu9> o.o
[09:32] <bazhang> jcpennerson, no. the alternate iso
[09:32] <logan_wolf> elk1988, if anyone is having a solution you will get it
[09:32] <shawn146-ubuntu9> terminator :D
[09:32] <bazhang> !alternate | jcpennerson
[09:32] <KE1HA> jcpennerson:  sure, you can try it, if it fails on install, then id' go the ALT-ISO route.
[09:33] <elk1988> LOL
[09:33] <RWHR> logan_wolf: Shares have changed but I still can't see the files when I want to change the backgrounds, I think it would just be easier if I store them in a folder and point to them via the "ADD" button..
[09:34] <elk1988> can anyone help me configure ejabberd
[09:34] <logan_wolf> RWHR, ok that would certainly be a work around
[09:34] <jcpennerson> do u see my HP Pavillion vd9500 with nvdia graphics card having installation problems with the alternate iso ? does anyone know if this line of laptops work with the latest ubuntu ?
[09:34] <logan_wolf> RWHR, try ls -la once in background dir
[09:35] <logan_wolf> that will certainly tell you what the issue is
[09:35] <logan_wolf> :)
[09:35] <bazhang> jcpennerson, should do. try the alternate cd
[09:35] <GG19> sup everyone :)
[09:36] <jcpennerson> ok thanks a lot bazhang/ke1ha. you guys have been very helpful
[09:37] <anubhav_> abhinav_singh: i think its /proc/acpi/battery
[09:37] <RWHR> logan_wolf: done, I get a list of attributes, owners, etc.
[09:37] <GG19> Anyone know a good free dvd maker software, I'm looking for something that can make custom menus and maybe even custom buttons?
[09:38] <abhinav_singh> who are you brother anubhav_:
[09:38] <KE1HA> bazhang:  I guess he's gone, Im not finding allot of links fer that model he said.
[09:38] <bazhang> GG19, from what source? something like devede ?
[09:38] <koolhead17> adious ppl
[09:38] <RWHR> logan_wolf: My name is on the list of images you are not able to see, while root is on the others.
[09:38] <anubhav_> GG19: devede
[09:38] <GG19> My sister is over with her baby or my nephew and I took lots of vids and pics and want her to have a dvd
[09:38] <bazhang> KE1HA, likely it will work
[09:38] <KE1HA> I think so.
[09:38] <logan_wolf> RWHR, there are permissions at the beginning of each line
[09:38] <GG19> doesnt matter the sorce just need to know good software thats free
[09:38] <KE1HA> we'll see :-)
[09:39]  * koolhead17 bows to logan_wolf
[09:39] <bazhang> GG19, then try devede , if you mean to burn for standalone dvd players
[09:39] <RWHR> logan_wolf: -rwxrwxrwx
[09:39] <wangyulin> R
[09:39] <logan_wolf> RWHR, hmm
[09:39] <GG19> Yeah just to take vids and put them on a dvd for a dvd player along with custom background
[09:39] <bazhang> GG19, nearly every bit of Ubuntu software is free
[09:39] <wangyulin> -REBOOT   YOU
[09:39] <yy> pidgin stopped working for Lcid Lynx, how can I make it work again
[09:40] <logan_wolf> RWHR, is this the permission with the files you added
[09:40] <wangyulin> what?
[09:40] <GG19> I'm still a n00b to linux lol, I'll give that a try thanks Bazhang :)
[09:40] <bazhang> wangyulin, support question?
[09:40] <RWHR> logan_wolf: They're both the same...
[09:40] <RWHR> -rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root      14620 2006-05-18 11:53 space-05.jpg
[09:40] <RWHR> -rwxrwxrwx   1 rwhr   rwhr<PHONE_NUMBER>-09-25 16:53 Sunset.jpg
[09:41] <logan_wolf> RWHR, what is the present working directory
[09:42] <KE1HA> there not the same, one is roots, and one is the users.
[09:43] <RWHR> logan_wolf: "/usr/share/backgrounds"
[09:44] <fanjabi> hi everyone, whenever i install or remove something i get an error: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) . how can i fix it?
[09:44] <logan_wolf> RWHR, change the ownership of the files you added to root
[09:45] <m4F> HelloP
[09:45] <logan_wolf> RWHR, you will most probably be able to view the files then
[09:45] <KE1HA> fanjabi:  have you updated first with sudo apt-get update?
[09:45] <gary_inNYC> how can i get Empathy to do google voice & video chatting?
[09:46] <RWHR> logan_wolf: I can see the files on the CLI and also when I go there via places, just not when I "Change desktop background"
[09:46] <Phylock> i have created a new user, but he has no sound(cant see the sound card), he is added to the sound group is there anything else i can check/have to do??
[09:46] <m4F> is there any like gyache ?
[09:47] <fanjabi> KE1HA: yes
[09:47] <logan_wolf> RWHR, once you change the ownership of the files you will be able to see them on GUI as well
[09:47] <m4F> tell me which is available like gyache ?
[09:47] <KE1HA> fanjabi:  what package is it failing on ?
[09:47] <fanjabi> KE1HA: any package
[09:48] <fanjabi> KE1HA: i get an error even installing through software-center
[09:48] <KE1HA> fanjabi:  from both command line and the package manager ?
[09:48] <m4F> i m not getting gyache package for me
[09:48] <fanjabi> KE1HA: yes
[09:48] <fanjabi> KE1HA: synaptic or software center
[09:49] <m4F> is there any package like gyache then tell me
[09:49] <KE1HA> fanjabi:  are you sure don't have a package process hung up in the background somewhere then?
[09:50] <fanjabi> KE1HA: not sure, but i have restarted several times, but the problem remains
[09:50] <shawn146-ubuntu9> whats ubuntu's file browser?
[09:51] <Vroomfondle> shawn146-ubuntu9: nautilus
[09:51] <shawn146-ubuntu9> ah
[09:51] <shawn146-ubuntu9> ty
[09:51] <RWHR> logan_wolf: I can see them via the desktop if I go Places > computer > file system, etc.... Do I do this by a "sudo chown root:root"
[09:52] <logan_wolf> RWHR, yup ;)
[09:52] <sacarlson> fanjabi: but even with that error your applications still install?
[09:52] <marek_> hi, i have on my PC two ubuntu installations - one 10.04 and other 10.10, on 10.04 i have encrypted home partition, how can i "enable" it on 10.10 installation?
[09:52] <m4F> is there any package like gyache ?
[09:52] <fanjabi> KE1HA: yes, they install and run
[09:53] <shawn146-ubuntu9> and is their an address bar for nautilus
[09:53] <mathk> hi
[09:53] <KE1HA> fanjabi:  aside form forcing the package ( which is normally not a good idea) then, update and try reinstall again, not sure where the issue could be. you could try cd /var/lib/dpkg/info  nd look for any bad packages and remove them, but that can be dangerous.
[09:53] <sacarlson> fanjabi: I had that problem before I don't recall what application it was I had to remove it or reinstall it to fix.
[09:54] <RWHR> logan_wolf: Didn't work :(. I tried using "." at the end when I was in backgrounds and also tried "backgrounds" while I was in the share directory
[09:54] <mathk> does anyone know a good chess game that we can play in a lan?
[09:54] <bazhang> marek_, #ubuntu+1 for maverick support and discussion
[09:54] <mathk> and that is compatible with windows?
[09:54] <anubhav_> Phylock: add the new user to 'audio' group
[09:54] <Phylock> he is
[09:55] <bazhang> mathk, checked apt-cache search chess   yet?
[09:55] <Phylock> and i have restarted
[09:55] <mathk> bazhang: yeap
[09:55] <m4F> is there any package for chat with yahoo server ?
[09:56] <KE1HA> fanjabi:  calso look at cleaning out /var/cache/apt/archives  then make a /partial dir and update again, sometimes things get hung on the cache, but that's a long shot.
[09:56] <anubhav_> Phylock:  what do u get in "id username"
[09:56] <sacarlson> fanjabi: I also recall living with it for sometime before I fixed it.  it didn't cause any real problems just confused me and make me think I had a biger problem.

[09:57] <Falcz> Hi, I have been trouble installing ubuntu 10.04 with my nvidia 6600 plugged in, so i installed using my integrated gfx and it worked. I plugged my gfx card back in hoping ubuntu would work, but im getting this error:  http://i.imagehost.org/0741/Error.png. Any help would be much appreciated
[09:57] <Phylock> or do you need more the that ?
[09:57] <m4F> thnx man
[09:57] <fanjabi> the problem i get in software-center is
[09:57] <fanjabi> dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of texlive-binaries:
[09:57] <fanjabi>  texlive-binaries depends on tex-common (>= 2.00); however:
[09:57] <fanjabi>   Package tex-common is not configured yet.
[09:57] <fanjabi> dpkg: error processing texlive-binaries (--configure):
[09:57] <fanjabi>  dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[09:57] <FloodBot3> fanjabi: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:57] <logan_wolf> RWHR, Kindly check the manual the only hint I can give you right now is try changing the owner of the background folder recursively to root
[09:57] <bazhang> fanjabi, paste.ubuntu.com with the entire output please
[09:58] <fanjabi> bazhang: ok, sorry for flooding
[09:58] <anubhav_> Phylock:  no looks good
[09:58] <brorjonas> What does "read: 9: Illegal option -e" means?
[09:58] <ubuntuvm1> could anyone please tell me how to wget chrome
[09:58] <KE1HA> fanjabi:  put the output here in pastebin: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/
[09:58] <bazhang> ubuntuvm1, chromium? its in the repos
[09:59] <ubuntuvm1> chrome
[09:59] <sacarlson> fanjabi: that brings some memorys but not the same application for me.  did you do some ppa software install?
[09:59] <fanjabi> sacarlson: i'm using apt-get
[09:59] <fanjabi> bazhang: http://paste.ubuntu.com/483861/
[10:00] <KE1HA> fanjabi:  also, do you use Tex fer writing docs with? you can remove them, and redo the updates and re-install Tex again after.
[10:00] <cao_> ?
[10:00] <ubuntuvm1> CHROME
[10:00] <bazhang> ubuntuvm1, no need for caps
[10:01] <sacarlson> fanjabi: ppa is the repositorys not part of ubuntu.  did you modify your repositorys?
[10:01] <ubuntuvm1> i'll wear a hood then
[10:01] <bazhang> fanjabi, what was the command used to get those errors
[10:01] <m4F> sat sri akal g
[10:02] <ubuntuvm1> could anyone please tell me how to wget chrome
[10:02] <iceroot> ubuntuvm1: wget url
[10:02] <ubuntuvm1> what url
[10:02] <bazhang> ubuntuvm1, there is a google repo for chrome.  no idea why you would want to wget it
[10:02] <fanjabi> bazhang: sudo apt-get install any_app
[10:02] <ubuntuvm1> what's the url
[10:03] <ubuntuvm1> because i have no browser
[10:03] <bazhang> ubuntuvm1, this has nothing to do with Ubuntu support
[10:03] <KE1HA> bazhang:  hes tripping first on python.
[10:03] <ubuntuvm1> yes it does
[10:03] <ubuntuvm1> im using ubuntu now
[10:03] <iceroot> ubuntuvm1: use lynx or w3m :) then you have a browser
[10:03] <bazhang> ubuntuvm1, chrome is not a canonical ubuntu product
[10:03] <ubuntuvm1> ok tell me how to get chromium then
[10:03] <bazhang> fanjabi, that particular error string
[10:04] <bazhang> ubuntuvm1, its called chromium-browser, install via package manager
[10:04] <iceroot> ubuntuvm1: start a browser and download chrome
[10:04] <ubuntuvm1> i have no browser
[10:04] <iceroot> ubuntuvm1: ah if it is in the repos use apt-get
[10:04] <iceroot> ubuntuvm1: sure you have a browser
[10:04] <iceroot> ubuntuvm1: lynx or w3m
[10:04] <shree> i need help to connect my tata photon to ubuntu 10.4
[10:04] <bazhang> sudo apt-get install chromium-browser ubuntuvm1
[10:05] <KE1HA> you need the PPS's for chromium dont you ?
[10:05] <ubuntuvm1> thanks
[10:05] <KE1HA> PPA's
[10:05] <bazhang> KE1HA, nope
[10:05] <sacarlson> fanjabi  I have tex-common version 2.06 installed on my ubuntu 10.04  so what version of ubuntu do you have installed?
[10:05] <Falcz> Hey, could someone please help me. I am having trouble booting ubuntu since I started using my nvidia 6600.
[10:05] <bazhang> !info chromium-browser
[10:05] <peter--> I just installed 10.04 and I got a bad screen resolution on the 19'' LCD. The display settings dont offer me the native resolution. where do I change that? Do I need a different video driver?
[10:06] <shree> ubottu: i need help to connect my tata photon to ubuntu 10.4
[10:06] <castor>  anyone has any knowledge about (x)ubuntu and ipods ?
[10:06] <bazhang> castor, connecting with which musicplayer
[10:06] <KE1HA> bazhang:  well done, thought there was a PPA, maybe it's the codecs Im think'en about.
[10:06] <bazhang> KE1HA, likely is, for the more recent versions
[10:06] <shree> i need help to connect my tata photon to ubuntu 10.4, can any one??
[10:06] <castor> thats the problem, it won't show up in any music program
[10:06] <castor> and on my desktop
[10:07] <bazhang> shree, no need to repeat every few seconds
[10:07] <castor> only ideviceinfo shows all info about the ipod
[10:07] <shree> bazhang: u  have solution?
[10:07] <minimec> Maybe someone can enlighten me. I am living in Switzerland and I am not member of last.fm. So normally I shouldn't have access to the member features... Now the interesting thing: WIth Rhythmbox I have full(!) access to these features, with banshee I don't. How can that be?
[10:07] <bazhang> shree be patient
[10:07] <fanjabi> sacarlson: i removed tex-common, did update, and installed it again, and my problem is gone
[10:07] <KE1HA> fanjabi:  you get you probem sorted ?
[10:08] <shree> bazhang: ok..
[10:08] <fanjabi> thanx to everyone
[10:08] <sacarlson> fanjabi: very good
[10:08] <bazhang> fanjabi, nice
[10:08] <KE1HA> fanjabi:  well done !
[10:08] <Phylock> anubhav_: I removed the user and added it again, restarted and now it works :/ , but thanks for your time .
[10:08] <bazhang> castor, using rhythmbox? gtkpod? more details please
[10:08] <fanjabi> but my actual problem remains
[10:09] <fanjabi> i thought that this will do with it
[10:09] <bazhang> fanjabi, then pastebin the errors
[10:09] <shawn146-ubuntu9> how do i change the size of my desktop icons?
[10:09] <shawn146-ubuntu9> make them smaller
[10:09] <sacarlson> fanjabi: no it's one of those fake problems we think we fixed
[10:09] <fanjabi> i can't seek through a song on any player
[10:09] <KE1HA> fanjabi:  same problem is back ?
[10:10] <fanjabi> i use rhythmbox
[10:10] <anubhav_> Phylock: glad to know it works
[10:10] <sacarlson> KE1HA: no it just wasn't related to his real problem with sound I guess
[10:10] <elliot98> does ubuntu support UDF 2.50?
[10:10] <KE1HA> sacarlson:  Oh, ok
[10:10] <fanjabi> i think that i have problem with codex
[10:10] <robas> join
[10:10] <shawn146-ubuntu9> ?
[10:10] <flupke> what is the ubuntu way of setting ssh-agent up for non gnome sessions ? (e.g. with awesome wm)
[10:10] <castor> bazhang, i can't use any music program, it wont show up on my desktop. ideviceinfo shows all infor about my ipod and says it is connected though
[10:11] <shawn146-ubuntu9> everybody always ignores me :(
[10:11] <sacarlson> fanjabi: well if it plays at all then it's probly not codec.  does it do it in all players like mplayer
[10:11] <bazhang> castor, that's odd. my touch works fine here
[10:11] <castor> bazhang, i have read alot of tutorials and how-to's about this subject. i think i've installed all the needed packages and such. i know (x)ubuntu should support ipod touch right out off the box
[10:12] <castor> bazhang, but i seem to have alot of problems with it
[10:12] <bazhang> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/suse-novell-60/desktop-icon-size-in-gnome-configurable-381182/ shawn146-ubuntu9
[10:12] <sacarlson> fanjabi: oh any player and seek do you mean you just can't fast forward?
[10:12] <fanjabi> sacarlson: yes
[10:13] <sacarlson> fanjabi: but it does play
[10:13] <bazhang> castor, simple usb connection? not firewire or such?
[10:13] <mhrmasum> hi
[10:13] <elliot98> does ubuntu play dvds burnt by Vista?
[10:13] <fanjabi> sacarlson: yes, it plays, but cant fast forward
[10:13] <bazhang> elliot98, should do
[10:14] <aperson> !panel > aperson
[10:14] <shawn146-ubuntu9> -_- a link
[10:14] <shawn146-ubuntu9> i can't open a browser right now
[10:14] <bazhang> shawn146-ubuntu9, read it yet?
[10:14] <elliot98> I saw discussion of Vista using a new version of UDF 2.50, so wondering if Ubuntu supports that
[10:14] <brontoeee> can evolution sync with google calendar?
[10:14] <KE1HA> flupke:  have a look at this, may be of use: http://www.docunext.com/blog/2009/10/xdm-libpam-ssh-awesomewm-gnome-keyring-daemon-gentoo-keychain-nm-applet-almost-perfect.html
[10:14] <sacarlson> fanjabi: with all forms of music and video? like ogg  files do those work?  you can find them in ~/.examples
[10:14] <fanjabi> sacarlson: the remaining time is always unknows
[10:14] <castor>  bazhang, yep usb
[10:14] <robas> #ubuntu-lt-team
[10:15] <castor>  bazhang, tried other calbe also
[10:15] <bazhang> castor, odd. sorry not to be able to help
[10:15] <bazhang> shawn146-ubuntu9, no browser?
[10:15] <shawn146-ubuntu9> i do have one

[10:27] <ReadPlease> Or is that an irrational fear --?
[10:28] <KE1HA> ReadPlease:  you dont have allot of options, it's either Wubi or a Netboot situaiton.
[10:28] <KE1HA> ReadPlease:  Unless you can get som sort of external media access.

[10:31] <KE1HA> ReadPlease:  to be honest, I've not installed UB form floppy drive :-)
[10:31] <ReadPlease> Maybe I could rip the harddrive out of my old laptop, plug it in as a ... slave..., mine off the old data
[10:31] <ReadPlease> install onto that harddrive.
[10:31] <KE1HA> in fact, I dont own a floppy drive.

[10:32] <madf0x> thatd fit on a floppy
[10:32] <KrisDouglas> ReadPlease, if your pc doesn't USB boot, why not get a USB CDROM? they usually show up a sstandard pata drives
[10:32] <sacarlson> KE1HA: there is a grub supperdisk I'm not sure but it might even fit on a floppy.  dont' know anyone that has tried it.
[10:33] <KE1HA> ReadPlease have a loook at this, may work: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-ubuntukubuntuedubuntuxubuntu-without-cdrom-drive.html

[10:34] <sacarlson> KrisDouglas: ya it works too
[10:34] <gavriel> hello?
[10:34] <ReadPlease> USB cdrom might be a good idea.  DamnSmallLinux sounds more 'now'.
[10:35] <madf0x> its been so long since Ive seen anyone need a floppy disk that I had to check my old floppys to remember how small they really are
[10:35] <cutout> Is it possible to install oracle 10g enterprise on ubuntu 10.04 (all the tuts. on web are 64-bit)
[10:35] <madf0x> ReadPlease is a network boot possible?
[10:36] <KE1HA> ReadPlease:  Here's a methign to Use Wubi to Install Ubuntu: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/the-extremely-simple-guide-to-installing-ubuntu.html
[10:38] <nano_> I want to install fortran compiler for ubuntu 10.04 but in installing I was faced with a Error"Missing critical pre-requisite
[10:38] <nano_> -- 32-bit libraries not found".someone can help to me?
[10:38] <FIGHTER`> Hi, is it possible to create a new user account that has access to reload nginx?
[10:38] <madf0x> ReadPlease yes? no? do you think you could try a networked install? like connecting to a network and installing from another comp?
[10:38] <ReadPlease> I should put context in.  I'm kind of new.  Not a CIS major or anything.  I'm really just trying to confirm this because I heard it from a friend.  I think Wubi is a great option, but is there a huge--like 99.9%--risk of watching my harddrive corrupt?
[10:39] <sacarlson> nano_: are you running a 64bit system?
[10:39] <ReadPlease> madf0x, I don't have another computer.
[10:39] <ReadPlease> Wait, maybe I can network connect to you.
[10:39] <ReadPlease> :)
[10:39] <nano_> yes
[10:39] <sacarlson> nano_: then I guess you can install the 32bit libs
[10:40] <madf0x> ReadPlease Well, to be honest I wouldn't know if thats possible or not.   I'll ask them and see what they have to say.  Hopefully, good news. :)
[10:40] <KE1HA> nano_:  sudo apt-get install ia32-libs
[10:40] <doctor> salve
[10:40] <erUSUL> !software | DJNomad
[10:41] <ReadPlease> That would be a Hell of a project, to try to do a network install over the internet. ^^ lol
[10:41] <sacarlson> nano_: what about gfortran  sudo apt-get install gfortran
[10:41] <madf0x> ReadPlease well one option would be to download the file, use a virtual CDrom and then run it right inside the HD I THINK ubuntu supports this with windows
[10:42] <fancybit> hello
[10:42] <fancybit> where is the config file about networks on ubuntu?
[10:43] <cjs> So, with one of the Japanese mirror package servers I'm getting a lot of messages about untrusted packages....
[10:43] <cjs> fancybit: /etc/network/interfaces.
[10:43] <cjs> More or less. If you can tell me just what you want to do or see, I can provide more precise instructions.
[10:43] <DJNomad> thanks erUSUL  but that page didnt get me much closer,sorry for my ignorance lol
[10:44] <FIGHTER`> Hi, is it possible to create a new user account that has access to reload nginx?
[10:45] <erUSUL> DJNomad: Aplicatios>Ubuntu Software Center. search for minitube. mark to install
[10:45] <DJNomad> k thanks erUSUL
[10:46] <erUSUL> FIGHTER`: you can tweak sudoers to add that command and only that. « man sudoers »
[10:47] <KE1HA> DJNomad:  you may also want to check out Chromium and HTML5 works good with youtube.
[10:47] <FIGHTER`> erUSUL: ok thanks, ill take a look
[10:47] <gavriel> hey guys
[10:47] <gavriel> could you give me a helping hand? :D
[10:48] <madf0x> Ask away
[10:48] <DJNomad> KE1HA,  I am on a ancient system is chromium light weight?
[10:48] <KE1HA> DJNomad:  yes.
[10:48] <DJNomad> I am kinda fond of google toolbar and I dont think it is on chromium
[10:48] <DJNomad> although much of the things I like about the toolbar are on chromium
[10:48] <KE1HA> DJNomad:  it's not Chrome, it's Chromium.
[10:49] <DJNomad> yes I know but forgot lol
[10:49] <Belserusk> Hi guys. My theme has a panel size of 31 pixels. It wont allow me to decrease it. I'd like to change the panel to 23 pixels as I like the theme Moomex. Can I force the panel to be smaller?
[10:49] <DJNomad> I have been bouncing back and forth between linux and windoz and being a hastle setting up
[10:49] <KE1HA> :-) no worries, works well on my netbook, and it's as powerful as a burned out light bulb.
[10:50] <FIGHTER`> erUSUL: if i add the user account to the sudoers list, once the user is logged in, will they have to enter anymore usernames/passwords to execute the commands?
[10:50] <DJNomad> KE1HA,  733 with 512 ram here,onboard vid lol
[10:50] <karlo> where I can modify options so screen saver can't run wail I'm watching flash (on youtube or page like that) ?
[10:51] <kuttan_> Helloo
[10:51] <intok> Weird networking issue, I can get on any chat network, pings are successful, no packet loss, typical latency, but firefox and seamonkey time out on any site unless I am currently pinging it, stuff loaded from other servers times out as well. if I download something from the repos the file downloads at normal speed. Tested with 2 different modems
[10:51] <erUSUL> FIGHTER`: you can tweak sudoers so it have to use password or not. is NOPASSWD keyword or some such
[10:51] <madf0x> intok sounds like something is f0ing with your outgoing port 80
[10:51] <DJNomad> karlo good question my "movie player" needs to keep my screensaver from activation as well
[10:51] <presario> karlo u can go to system/prefrences/screensaver
[10:52] <minimec> DJNomad: You can have a working machine. I would say xubuntu or ubuntu with fluxboe or e17 would do...
[10:52] <minimec> DJNomad: fluxbox
[10:52] <DJNomad> minimec, I am running xubuntu,others are to foreign for me right now
[10:52] <madf0x> intok check your gateway and see if anything is interfering with http I messed with a friend once by blocking access for a few minutes :)
[10:52] <KE1HA> DJNomad:  yeah, thats' pretty lite, FF I'd stay away from them. Epiphany is another option for a browser.
[10:53] <DJNomad> I play a facebook game nearly all the time so that factors into it aswell,chromium seemed laggier in it
[10:53] <acid> i did fsck but i still get the error message "failed to open /var/webmin/miniserv.error : Read-only file system "
[10:53] <erUSUL> FIGHTER`: found an example line --> « your_user_here ALL=(root)NOPASSWD:/etc/init.d/nginx restart »
[10:54] <DJNomad> also another question ...is anyone familiar with conduits toolbar where you can make your own ?
[10:54] <acid> i did fsck but i still get the error message "failed to open /var/webmin/miniserv.error : Read-only file system "
[10:54] <erUSUL> FIGHTER`: check with docs. to edit sudoers use « visudo »
[10:54] <acid> sorry for the repeat mistake
[10:54] <erUSUL> FIGHTER`: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1132821
[10:54] <KE1HA> DJNomad:  just guess, I'd say, Epiphany, then Chromium, then FF in weights.
[10:54] <acid> anyone has any idea?
[10:54] <DJNomad> anyway using the toolbar for some reason the "radio player" part of it does not show up using linux
[10:54] <pie_time> how does the "purge rm" command work? i cant seem to get it working
[10:55] <presario> what are u trying to purge or remove pie_time
[10:55] <DJNomad> I am assuming there is a plugin I need to get it to work but I do not know what to get
[10:55] <murlidhar> pie_time: sudo aptitude purge <package name>  ?
[10:55] <KE1HA> DJNomad:  plug-in for which one ?
[10:55] <presario> i concur with murlidhar pie_time
[10:56] <DJNomad> KE1HA, the toolbar is a ie and firefox only toolbar
[10:56] <presario> the rm is a complete different command eg sudo rm filename
[10:56] <DJNomad> so firefox
[10:56] <KE1HA> DJNomad:  ahh ok, and it's a radio plug-in / extension ?
[10:57] <elliot98> how do get more info about the cdrom I am using?
[10:57] <DJNomad> KE1HA, yes it is a lil player in a toolbar that you can "tune" in net steams
[10:58] <DJNomad> http://FreakShowToolbar.OurChurchToolbar.com/
[10:58] <KE1HA> DJNomad:  I just goggled it there's several, don't know which one you need, but here's one" https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4392/
[10:59] <azi> is there any graphical interface for adminstrating grub? I would like to add a menu at boot so that I can choose to boot other os-es
[10:59] <DJNomad> thats the link to mine but you can make your own on conduit.com
[10:59] <presario> help with the b43 wireless driver please
[10:59] <KE1HA> DJNomad:  I dont use FF, was just looking fer you.
[10:59] <DJNomad> kk thanks
[10:59] <presario> installing the injection patch provides a failed at hunk error
[11:00] <DJNomad> any firefox users have a clue on what I may need for my condiut toolbar to work ?
[11:00] <ectospasm> presario: in general, that usually happens when you're trying to patch the wrong version of code
[11:00] <tarzeau> i'm a glad chromium browser user
[11:00] <DJNomad> sorry all,I am a man of many questions on many subjects and I have a touch of adhd lol
[11:01] <presario> ectospasm yes i was thinking this but i cannt confirm the versions myself
[11:01] <ectospasm> presario: it depends on how you obtained the code
[11:02] <presario> what version patch i have you mean ectospasm
[11:02] <ectospasm> presario: no, the version of the base source code
[11:02] <ectospasm> ...and the version of the patch

[11:05] <ectospasm> presario: heh, you're trying to patch an older version of the linux kernel, 2.6.24 vs. 2.6.32 (which you've got)
[11:05] <tarzeau> zeleftikam: so you are using which x driver? nv? nouveau? nvidia?
[11:05] <zeleftikam> tarzeau: i think that's the real temperature... it just dropped one degree
[11:05] <presario> so the 24 in the patch and the 32 i the kernel are different ectospasm
[11:05] <FIGHTER`> erUSUL: ok ive just added to command to the sudoers list, and now i get this error - [emerg]: bind() to <IP_ADDRESS>:80 failed (13: Permission denied) - where do i give the user permission to bind to network ports

[11:06] <ectospasm> presario: what are you trying to install the patch for?

[11:11] <danny_> Hi, I have ubuntu set to my taste, I wondered how you could make a backup or a live cd with all configurations for when the worst happens.
[11:11] <Vroomfondle> webdesigner: eh?
[11:11] <Vroomfondle> webdesigner: use the package manager
[11:11] <Vroomfondle> apt-get install webhttrack
[11:11] <ectospasm> ibrahim-kasem: no, I'm not an expert
[11:11] <Vroomfondle> sudo apt-get install webhttrack

[11:11] <ibrahim-kasem> ectospasm, thnx
[11:11] <tarzeau> danny_: is that gnome settings?
[11:11] <danny_> yes
[11:11] <tarzeau> danny_: gnome configuration files are not compatible between different gnome versions. so just forget about it :)
[11:11] <tarzeau> danny_: kde isn't better a penny on that either
[11:11] <ectospasm> fancybit: you'll need to look at all the links in /etc/rc?.d which will tell you the order they'll be run in.
[11:12] <danny_> mmmm
[11:12] <Ruthgard> danny_, you could try backup your home folder
[11:12] <danny_> :/
[11:12] <nikolam> So actually, Ubuntu DVD 10.04 is the same as 10.04.1 so no need to re-download.
[11:12] <spermcube> anyone here experienced with lvm? i tried to add a disk to a new lvm pool, didn't work as i expected it to and now i cant mount the volume even as a normal drive.
[11:12] <webdesigner> anyways..   the codes are :  ./configure && make && make install
[11:12] <Ruthgard> danny_,  As long as you install the same version of ubuntu it should all go back to how it was
[11:12] <Ruthgard> danny_, apart from any extra packages you had installed
[11:12] <tarzeau> spermcube: hej hej
[11:13] <Vroomfondle> webdesigner: try "sudo http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/im-twelve-years-old-and-what-is-this
[11:13] <Vroomfondle> erk
[11:13] <Vroomfondle> wrong paste
[11:13] <spermcube> when i try mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /mount/whatever it just complains about it being the wrong fs
[11:13] <Vroomfondle> sudo apt-get install webhttrack
[11:13] <ectospasm> spermcube: what order of commands did you use to try and set up the physical volume?
[11:13] <danny_> Ruthgard: yes, but the packages and everything else?
[11:13] <webdesigner> haha ok ok
[11:13] <spermcube> tarzeau: hej hoj
[11:13] <ectospasm> spermcube: you've got to format it, if it was a PV earlier
[11:13] <webdesigner> thanks! a lot
[11:13] <spermcube> i followed this guide http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_lvm
[11:14] <Ruthgard> danny_, whast is everything else? You mean the entire system?
[11:14] <danny_> yes
[11:14] <tarzeau> spermcube: where in sweden are you?
[11:14] <spermcube> i did not format the drive though since it had some data on it already.
[11:14] <webdesigner> Vroom: can u help me to fix my mouse problem??
[11:14] <spermcube> tarzeau: sthlm
[11:14] <danny_> I want to make a backup of the entire system
[11:14] <ectospasm> spermcube: when you ran pvcreate on the physical HD, you destroyed the data on it. )-;
[11:15] <tarzeau> spermcube: i was there this summer and last september :)
[11:15] <spermcube> damn :/
[11:15] <erUSUL> !backup | danny_
[11:15] <spermcube> someway to revert this?
[11:15] <Ruthgard> danny_, have you installed ubuntu? there is a good help topic about backup in the help system
[11:15] <spermcube> so i get my data back?
[11:15] <webdesigner> Vroom: My laptop's mouse pad stops working after logging in UBUNTU 10
[11:16] <danny_> thanks to all
[11:16] <danny_> :)
[11:16] <ectospasm> spermcube: nope, next time read through the instructions BEFORE you run data-destructive commands on your hard drives.  And back up before you do ANYTHING!
[11:16] <spermcube> :P
[11:17] <Macpetersen> is there a specefic ubuntu server channel ??

[11:20] <bazhang> yang, the released version latest is lucid
[11:21] <Sardinian> HI ALL!
[11:22] <IStorm> Alright, question, to anyone, why would a standard update press the fact that certain things are "not authenticated"?
[11:23] <Ruthgard> IStorm, becouse you have not added the certificat key for a repoistory that has an update for you. ie, you added a repo but not their keys.
[11:24] <IStorm> Ruthgard : odd that I didn't hit this with my xubuntu so far, but that's how things go. How do I "key-up" as it were. LOL
[11:25] <Ruthgard> IStorm, you should check your software sources
[11:25] <Ruthgard> System->Administration->Software sources
[11:26] <notme> Ubuntu Server 10.04, when I 'ls /' or 'ps ax' or 'top' my session hangs, how can I troublehshoot this?
[11:26] <Ruthgard> IStorm, under the second tab
[11:26] <dearbasheer> hi
[11:26] <Ruthgard> IStorm, Crossreference that tab with the tab Auzentication
[11:27] <levene> I know I can convert jpg files to a pdf file with convert -compress jpeg *.jpg output.pdf but that seems to recompress the jpeg files, which I guess is lossy and slow. Is there a way to convert jpeg files to pdf without recompressing them?
[11:27] <Ruthgard> IStorm, I have another language in my Ubuntu so the names may vary from what I called them here
[11:27] <IStorm> Ruthgard : I'm with you, and there, gimme a sec to examine. I would have thought all sources would have been in place on install.
[11:27] <Ruthgard> IStorm, maby you added them yourselfe :)
[11:28] <dearbasheer> Is there a way to stop my screen from going dark en am watchin movies?
[11:29] <IStorm> Ruthgard : Unfortunately a big nada on that one.
[11:29] <Ishwon> disable screensaver...
[11:30] <duffydack> levene, dont use --compress ?
[11:30] <[edge]> dearbasheer what is your movie player?
[11:30] <Ruthgard> IStorm, Then I am afraid I dont know :/
[11:30] <julien_> hi
[11:31] <julien_> oheeee
[11:32] <rooks> when playing movie i only have audio on remote pulseaudio machine, when playing stuff via totem movie player, when playing via vlc and mplayer its deaf even when explicitly stating to make vlc and mplayer to use pulse audio
[11:32] <IStorm> Ruthgard : It's quite alright, it smells like virus, and I'm fearful of it. One of the updates is the whole linux image, so I think I'm screwed.
[11:32] <rooks> vlc and mplayer both register as apps that are using audio on remote pulseaudio server, but still no sound :(
[11:35] <yang> Can you tell me , what is
[11:35] <yang> root     11641  0.0  0.0   1828   564 ?        S    10:34   0:00 /bin/sh /etc/init.d/ondemand background
[11:35] <yang> root     11644  0.0  0.0   1768   440 ?        S    10:34   0:00 sleep 60
[11:35] <yang> ?
[11:35] <FloodBot3> yang: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:36] <ectospasm> IStorm: no, you're probably using a repo that hasn't updated its keys properly, or you haven't imported the keys for
[11:36] <duffydack> yang,  manages your cpu speed
[11:36] <yang> and why doesn't "dmesg" work ?
[11:37] <ectospasm> yang: are you root?
[11:37] <yang> yes
[11:37] <ectospasm> well, scratch that, dmesg can run as a normal user
[11:37] <ectospasm> yang: did you run dmesg -c?  Do you get an error when you run dmesg?
[11:37] <yang> do I need to install some additional programs for "dmesg" to be displayed
[11:38] <yang> no error, no output
[11:38] <yang> but this is a VPS
[11:38] <ectospasm> yang: dmesg is probably cleared
[11:38] <ectospasm> if you run "dmesg -c" you'll display, then it will clear the kernel ring buffer
[11:38] <ectospasm> yang: try unloading a kernel module which you know writes to dmesg
[11:39] <ectospasm> then check dmesg to see if its unloading gets written there
[11:40] <anubhav_> yang: whats VPS?
[11:40] <ectospasm> anubhav_: virtual private server
[11:40] <opensuseadmin> Any ideas to build router with packet layer7 shaping, is there is only way to write iptables script " iptables -m layer7 --l7proto" ?
[11:40] <anubhav_> yang: maybe dmesg is not installed

[11:41] <abli> Hi! Any idea what might be causing the directory where I am mounting a remote dir with sshfs to get '?' permissions / other metadata? I.e. 'ls -l' says "d?????????  ? ?      ?        ?                ? dirname"  (I am using an older sshfs, the one in intrepid with a karmic server)

[11:44] <mikebeecham> quick question - I'm on 10.04 at the moment, but I'm seeing all these lovely new things arrive on 10.10.    Are the problems you've had in the 'need sorting out' realm?
[11:45] <Soyo> Its 6:45 in the morning time for some tea
[11:45] <anubhav_> yang: ps aux|grep kmsg
[11:46] <ectospasm> mikebeecham: Only problem I've had on this machine is a nagging I/O problem I haven't been able to track down.
[11:46] <ectospasm> ...but that's probably hardware related
[11:46] <mikebeecham> ectospasm, lag in apps?
[11:47] <yang> anubhav_: look at my previous paste, those are allthe processes I have
[11:48] <ectospasm> mikebeecham: HDD light goes on, all input seems to block until it's done.  iotop is too broken to be of use, iostat and top show a lot CPU processing I/O Wait context
[11:48] <mikebeecham> ectospasm, hmmm, that is a little worrying?
[11:48] <ectospasm> mikebeecham: like I said, it's a problem with my *hardware*
[11:49] <abli> abli: (replying to self:) apparently I needed to use the '-o allow_other' option (and to enable it in /etc/fuse.conf)
[11:51] <mikebeecham> would anyone else advise upgrading to Meerkat at the moment?
[11:53] <anubhav_> yang: what does "which dmesg" give?

[12:02] <logan_wolf> purvesh, just read it man
[12:02] <logan_wolf> everything is available
[12:02] <jamw> STFW is a polite way of suggesting that a search engine might have been a suitable first port of call

[12:06] <Batch> Hey, Today my wireless decided to stop working so I looked in dmesg and here is the log: http://pastebin.com/qsFq2eTG I tried uninstalling network-manager and using wicd to no avail.
[12:07] <Name141> Is wipe the 'best' thing to use to blank a whole hard drive/partition before selling/tossing in garbage ? or is shred?
[12:07] <rockhopper> Batch, is your network device detected?
[12:07] <Batch> rockhopper, yeah, i think so
[12:08] <bartj> how do I know how much time a process is running for ?
[12:08] <Batch> The problem came out of the blue which was odd.
[12:08] <rockhopper> Batch, did you check if its detected?
[12:09] <rockhopper> run "lspci"
[12:09] <rockhopper> see if its listed
[12:09] <duffydack> Name141, not used shred.. i`d just dd urandom and dd zero it
[12:09] <Batch> Yeah, it is

[12:11] <fooey_> anyone know where the read about the formal process of submitting a package to ubuntu?
[12:12] <nesbitt> can someone please help me: i had apt-cacher-ng set up on an old computer running ubuntu server, but that computer is out of action. i removed the file i added in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ and now apt-get works fine.  the gui program 'update manager' however doesn't work and gives an error message declaring it failed to find my server.  i can't find any file configuring it to use my server.  where is the setting for this?
[12:12] <duffydack> Name141,  then dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda .. i`d be confident enough after that, personally.
[12:14] <rockhopper> did you reinstall the driver?
[12:14] <Batch> fooey, simple googling shows results
[12:14] <anubhav_> Batch: can you see if you can reset the device using iwpriv?
[12:14] <Batch> fooey, *

[12:15] <duffydack> Name141, might wanna add bs=1M to speed it up a bit..
[12:15] <fooey_> your're right, but finding the search terms is a far different matter. I was using "how to submit a package to ubuntu", when I should have been using "ubuntu new package"
[12:15] <Batch> rockhopper, Any ideas?
[12:16] <Soyo> fooey_: launchpad.net
[12:16] <Batch> fooey, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment
[12:16] <fooey_> just figured it out... and I just successfully built my first PPA package

[12:16] <fooey_> that took awhile
[12:16] <rockhopper> Batch, Uhm.. thinking
[12:17] <rockhopper> Batch, Are the networks running dhcp server?
[12:17] <Batch> Everyone else feel free to join in and solve my problem!
[12:17] <rockhopper> check the network settings.
[12:17] <fooey_> this is what I was looking for: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages
[12:17] <Batch> The DHCP is auto assigned

[12:21] <SPM_> eino: there should by symlink in /etc/rcX.d to the init.d/script
[12:21] <eino> SPM_ I did that update.rc thing that created the links
[12:22] <SPM_> eino: and symlink is existing now?

[12:25] <timh> hi
[12:26] <castor[NL]> i finnaly got my ipod touch to work
[12:26] <castor[NL]> but there is one more problem; the ipod won't show up on my desktop
[12:26] <castor[NL]> i can add and remove music but it just doesn
[12:26] <castor[NL]> t show up on my dekstop
[12:26] <eino> SPM_ no such directory
[12:27] <eino> is that X a number?
[12:27] <SPM_> eino: yes, X is number of run level. Which update command have you used for add this script?
[12:27] <sacarlson> eino: you can also use crontab to start a program at boot,  I noticed there has been changes in boot start configs in the last releases
[12:28] <eino> SPM_ update-rc.d scriptname defaults
[12:28] <eino> sacarlson: you think that would be easier?
[12:28] <sacarlson> eino: you can see this for an example to setup scripts in cron at boot http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/crontab.htm
[12:29] <eino> okay
[12:29] <eino> sacarlson do I need X to be running in order to use that?
[12:29] <sacarlson> eino: well nothing is too dificult if you know how to do it.  this is just my prefered method
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> You could just start a command from /etc/rc.local
[12:30] <sacarlson> eino: is the program you run an x program?  if so then yest
[12:30] <SPM_> eino: ok and have you symlink /etc/rc2.d/S20<scriptname> ?
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> Ubuntu  uses Upstart these days. the 'rc.d' (sysv) method is slowly getting phased out.
[12:30] <sacarlson> eino: if not then no you don't need xserver to be running
[12:31] <SPM_> then it's better run program with xsession or similar..
[12:31] <Dr_Willis> !autostart
[12:31] <eino> sacarlson: no it is not, ok
[12:31] <eino> SPM_ no, what is that?
[12:31] <sacarlson> SPM_: seems some of the startup sequence has moved from /etc/init.d to /etc/init  with some if then stuff added.  I don't have a full understanding of it yet.
[12:32] <CkhiKuzad> My ipod was recently completely corrupted by GNUpod, and i cant seem to format it because gnome keeps trying to mount it, but it causes it to instantly disappear. how would i be able to force-format it?
[12:32] <Dr_Willis> sacarlson:  what remanes of /etc/init.d is actually (for the most part) upstart scripts that just look like the old sysv system. Upstart is the  way ubuntu is heading
[12:32] <SPM_> sacarlson: hmm, I now tried update-rc.d command and it only create symlinks in rcX.d...
[12:32] <eino> oh yea and I'm using the 9.04 version
[12:32] <eino> if that changes anything
[12:33] <sacarlson> SPM_: I think they are like running parts of both upstart and sysv but at some point I think it will all be upstart so you might be better off moving to cron that I guess might continue to be supported.
[12:33] <SPM_> Dr_Willis: behavior of update-rc.d is updated automatical or I need to change anything?
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> eino:  what exactly are yoy trying to startup?
[12:33] <eino> rTorrent
[12:34] <eino> I followed a guide at their website but I guess I failed
[12:34] <Dr_Willis> eino:  i would just start it from /etc/rc.local and be done with it.  :) Unless you really want it to work as a 'service'
[12:34] <eino> "rtorrentcommontasks" @ google
[12:34] <ximal> I accidentally turned on my hdmi output and now when I turn on mycomputer I can see the login screen and I hear the sounds @ login but I can't move my mouse . Can anyone help with that ?
[12:34] <eino> Dr_Willis: allright, I'll try that
[12:35] <eino> Dr_Willis: what do i type in it? :D
[12:35] <SPM_> hmm, it will be hard to forgot init scripts :)
[12:35] <ximal> Is there a way to reset your xconfig file or to reset your video output on ubuntu 10.04 while you are using the live cd ?
[12:35] <Dr_Willis> eino:  whatever command starts the progam
[12:35] <eino> Dr_Willis: okay
[12:36] <eino> but hmm
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> eino:  put them befor the exit statement with & at the end..
[12:36] <sacarlson> cool thing with crontab is you can start your program at boot without being a super user.
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> sacarlson:  rc.local is ran as root.. at boot.
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> starting things at 'boot' via crontab seems.. awkward
[12:36] <eino> Dr_Willis: can I put "screen rtorrent&" before the last line and it'll work?
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> eino:  proberly. Try it and see..
[12:37] <sacarlson> Dr_Willis: don't you need to be a supper user to modify the contents of rc.local then?
[12:37] <eino> okay :P
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> eino:  you mey need to read up on the screen docs.
[12:37] <SPM_> sacarlson: for running cron jobs as root you have to be root too... I think
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> sacarlson:  rc.local is ran when the system boots befor users login. You could set up  a command to run an app as a user if you wanted.. it does Not run apps at set time.. just once at bootup.
[12:38] <sacarlson> SPM_: yes true but any user can have a cron that he can modify without becoming root that's all I'm saying.
[12:39] <sacarlson> Dr_Willis: user cron is also started before users login but never require supper user to modify or start them.
[12:39] <SPM_> sacarlson: yes... but if user has root account on his computer, is maybe better to use rc.local or similar..
[12:39] <eino> didn't work
[12:40] <mstacey> need help with lock screen
[12:40] <Dr_Willis> eino:  then you need to use a proper command and read up on screen
[12:40] <eino> screen -r nor screen -rd nor sudo * those wont work
[12:40] <eino> what do you mean proper?
[12:40] <SPM_> eino: you have to type screen -r as root
[12:40] <SPM_> oh
[12:40] <eino> SPM_ I did
[12:40] <SPM_> with sudo, ok..
[12:41] <Dr_Willis> eino:  figure out how to do it from a  terminal. i do Not think 'screen whatever' runs whatever in screen.. try it from a terminal
[12:41] <mstacey> when the screen is locked the dialog that pops up has an "unlock" button that bypasses entry of the login
[12:41] <sacarlson> SPM_: they can both do almost the same thing if the user that has the cron has sudo rights he too can start a root event.  not saying it's wrong to do it your way just providing another way that you never require to be root.
[12:41] <eino> Dr_Willis: if I type screen rtorrent its starts up fine
[12:41] <Dr_Willis> eino:  then whats the issue?
[12:41] <Dr_Willis> saying 'it dont work' dosent tell us much. :)
[12:41] <eino> I would like it to start automatically when I boot my computer :P
[12:42] <eino> I put it in that rc file and rebooted, no screen to be resumed
[12:42] <eino> I'm sorry if this is frustrating, I'm a newbie with linux :D
[12:42] <Dr_Willis> eino:  whats the exact command you put in rc.local ?
[12:43] <eino> screen rtorrent&
[12:43] <eino> exit 0
[12:43] <Dr_Willis> eino:  there ya go.. thats the issue
[12:43] <Dr_Willis> its screen rtorrent &
[12:43] <Dr_Willis> 'spaces are imporntant'
[12:43] <eino> oh okay :D pardon me
[12:43] <eino> reboot, sec
[12:44] <piero> i want website i can download games for ubuntu
[12:44] <piero> i want website i can download games for ubuntu
[12:44] <jrib> Dr_Willis: point eino to "man screen"/startup<enter>
[12:45] <Dr_Willis> piero:  try the getdeb or playdeb web sites fotr startersd.
[12:45] <Dr_Willis> piero:  or check teh package manager for lots of games
[12:45] <doorknob> Every time I upgrade the kernel my graphics and sound drivers get screwed.. is there a fix to this?
[12:45] <eino> odd, still doesn't work
[12:45] <eino> "no screen to be resumed/detached
[12:45] <jrib> eino: use crontab and read "man screen"/startup
[12:45] <hiren> hi all
[12:45] <Batch> rockhopper, If you recall our last conversation I believe this is the problem: "wlan0: deauthenticating from XXXXXX by local choice (reason=3)"
[12:45] <coz_> doorknob, which video card do you have?
[12:46] <Batch> Although I have no idea how to fix it
[12:46] <eino> jrib isn't rc.local crontab?
[12:46] <jrib> eino: no.
[12:46] <eino> okay
[12:46] <eino> hmph
[12:46] <Dr_Willis> eino:  you do realize that  rc.lcoal is getting ran as root.. so your torrent app is getting ran as root. this may not be what you want
[12:46] <Dr_Willis> rc.local has nothing to do with crontab
[12:46] <hiren> hi daviwy
[12:46] <doorknob> (running ATI catalyst drivers with ATI sound onboard)
[12:47] <eino> Dr_Willis: it doesn't matter if it runs as root
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> eino:  it can matter.. its a serucity risk
[12:47] <eino> okay
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> eino:  screen  has command line options to start detached.. you proberly need to use
[12:47] <rockhopper> Batch, Lol i dont know as well. But, if you have set the settings up correct, it shud connect
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> brb
[12:47] <coz_> doorknob, mm  I am not sure about ati situations when kernels get updated  however  ...   Are you going to never do that again Batch ?
[12:51] <Batch> Sure.
[12:51] <johngeetar> anyone use conkyForecast?
[12:51] <Ximal> jrib: i tries sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and it brought me back to the command line
[12:52] <Ximal> err tried .. my bad jrid
[12:52] <Ximal> jrib ... ughh I can't spell for jack .. been at this for over 3 hours now
[12:52] <Belgicano> johngeetar: I do.
[12:52] <johngeetar> have you ever had it return abnormally high values?  I just logged into X today to find that it was 165 degrees outside??
[12:52] <Batch> My wireless decides to deauthenticate straight away, Started happening out of the blue. Error that I think is causing it is; wlan0: deauthenticating from XXXXX  by local choice (reason=3)
[12:52] <Ximal> sorry jrib
[12:53] <jrib> Ximal: how did you turn the monitors on and off?  Using a gui tool?  Anyway, I don't think the dpkg configure script does much nowadays.  But by default xorg.conf should be empty or even non-existent.  Try that.  Also you can pass some switch to Xorg to generate some kind of configuration file.  I'd try just deleting xorg.conf for starters
[12:53] <Belgicano> johngeetar: nope, never noticed anything like that, are you living on Mercurius? lol...
[12:54] <pranay_09> i have downloded the package "festival" which coverts text to speech but when i run it i get the error: festival> (SayText "Hello world") Linux: can't open /dev/dsp#<Utterance 0xb6a87d08>
[12:54] <Batch> pranay_09, Contact Cow.
[12:54] <madf0x> pranay, why use festival?
[12:54] <Belgicano> johngeetar: which version are you using? and how did you install it? Repos?
[12:54] <johngeetar> lol, actually I was messing with the positioning settings and out of the blue, it was apparently REALLY hot outside and was going to be hotter the next few days
[12:55] <pranay_09> i want to use a text to speech convertor for an application i am developing
[12:55] <madf0x> My install came with spd-say which does text to speech just fine
[12:55] <johngeetar> so I installed ircII to come in here and ask around and it just sort of fixed itself by the time I finally got in here
[12:55] <e3c333> hello there is there any internal mail server in ubuntu like exchange server
[12:55] <Batch> forlz.
[12:55] <madf0x> pranay, just asking why festival(never used it mind you, not a rhetoric question)? Cause if you dont NEED it you can avoid the problem :)
[12:56] <Belgicano> weird, could it heve been some "appending" of data due to positionning of objects?
[12:56] <sipior> e3c333: yes, several. postfix is quite capable, for example.
[12:56] <jrib> e3c333: there are several.  postfix that sipior mentioned is good, there's also exim...
[12:57] <johngeetar> Belgicano: I have no idea.  It's been working fine, then out of nowhere it was giving me wrong values
[12:57] <zeleftikam> Hey all. Problem with 10.04 with nVidia GeForce GTS 250 card running dual displays. If I disable the second display, it works fine, but if I enable the second display using TwinView, the Adaptive PowerMizer setting becomes ineffective, the GPU and RAM run at full clock speed, and the GPU temperature reaches 102C while the computer just sits there at the desktop with interface effects off. Any clue where to start troubleshooting this skyrock
[12:57] <zeleftikam> eting GPU?
[12:57] <sorin7486> can somebody help me ? my sound doesn't work !!!
[12:57] <jrib> !sound > sorin7486
[12:57] <Ximal> jrib: ok .. that sudo mv command is done ... next ?
 if there is a stable one like exchange server
[12:57] <jrib> Ximal: restart your X
[12:58] <sorin7486> no it's not muted
[12:58] <pranay_09> madf0x, i just need something which converts text to speech ,googled it and found it also it can be used as an argument to runtime command in java in which i am developing the app , can you please suggest some alternative,
[12:58] <sipior> zeleftikam: interesting. i assume you're running the nvidia driver?
[12:58] <Ximal> ummm i' honestly don't remember that command right now ...
[12:58] <zeleftikam> sipior: yes sir
[12:58] <jrib> e3c333: I don't know anything about exchange.  You mean you want something that acts /like/ exchange or what?
[12:58] <sorin7486> but thanks for the links
[12:58] <johngeetar> like an SMTP server?
[12:58] <e3c333> jrib: microsoft exchange server
[12:58] <jrib> e3c333: repeating things does not help me understand
[12:59] <Belgicano> how long did it take to set back to normal?
[12:59] <e3c333> jrib as in with gud user friendly admin console and all !
[12:59] <pranay_09> madf0x, java has a freeTTS but for some reasons it is not working in my system so i am looking for an alternative
[12:59] <sipior> zeleftikam: might be useful? http://www.uluga.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9761461
[13:00] <Dr_Willis> !mail

[13:01] <Dr_Willis> mailservers/exchange - one of those things ive never really messed with. (and dont care to) :)
[13:01] <levene> is there a problem with flashplugin-installer? when I apt-get --reinstall it, it says "download failed", "The Flash plugin is NOT installed"
[13:01] <levene> I'm behind a proxy but wget can download the file it tries to fetch
[13:01] <levene> so I don't understand it
[13:01] <levene> it tries to get http://archive.canonical.com/pool/partner/a/adobe-flashplugin/adobe-flashplugin_<IP_ADDRESS>.orig.tar.gz
[13:02] <stacken> Hey
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> levene:  ive seen that happen if adobe changes  the file/updates it in the past  the version # can change.
[13:02] <levene> Dr_Willis: is there a fix?
[13:02] <stacken> somebody can help me?
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> levene:  never noticed. I always install it on new installs and rarely have issues.
[13:02] <coz_> stacken,  sorry i didnt see your question
[13:02] <levene> Dr_Willis: although this seems not to be the issue. it's a download from archive.canonical.com that files when the script tries to fetch it, but I can access it with wget from the same machine
[13:02] <madf0x> levene well if it says its not installed then the obvious answer is to install it instead of --reinstall :)
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> levene:  ages ago they had to update teh flash-installer package. but ive not heard of any othe rissues with flash lately.
[13:03] <stacken> how can u install the teamspeak 3 client?

[13:06] <kuttan_> Any good command line tools to find duplicate files , by comparing there md5 sums ..
[13:06] <stacken> seach button ?
[13:06] <fancybit> hello?
[13:06] <Dr_Willis> perlsyntax:  shall we ask why you are compiling emacs?
[13:06] <stacken> where is it?
[13:06] <perlsyntax> i know that what lib do i need for it
[13:06] <coz_> stacken,  where is the "Search" button?
[13:06] <stacken> yea
[13:06] <Dr_Willis> perlsyntax:  emacs proberly uses a lot of differnt libs.
[13:06] <stacken> i dont find it
[13:06] <stacken> :D
[13:07] <perlsyntax> becuase i want the news one.
[13:07] <fancybit> I want to study how to write startup script in /etc/init , any docs or suggestion?
[13:07] <jrib> perlsyntax: why don't you use the packages...?
[13:07] <jrib> !upstart | fancybit
[13:07] <coz_> stacken,   if synaptic is opened it should be a big  button at the top  with "search" just below the icon
[13:07] <perlsyntax> i want to try to build my own.
[13:07] <coz_> crackguy,  if no one can answer here try the ##Linux channel
[13:07] <ahmed_> hello
[13:07] <sipior> zeleftikam: but surely the post on page two of that thread is relevant, with the RegistryDwords entry in xorg.conf. can you try specifying a different value for PowerMizerEnable? (it's entirely possible that it is incompatible with twinview, as suggested later in the thread)
[13:08] <coz_> stacken,  did you find it?
[13:08] <Batch> rockhopper, Fixed it.
[13:08] <Dr_Willis> perlsyntax:  you can use the   ->    sudo apt-get build-dep PACKAGENAME      To pull in all the depenedencies needed to compile somthing
[13:08] <stacken> hmm
[13:08] <stacken> yea
[13:08] <perlsyntax> thanks
[13:08] <Dr_Willis> perlsyntax:  you NEED a newer emacs? or are you just learning how TO compile as the goal?
[13:08] <stacken> thanks guy :D
[13:09] <coz_> stacken,   ok  hope that helps
[13:09] <mjtunes> hi
[13:09] <mjtunes> is there a xchat channel here
[13:09] <coz_> mjtunes,  yes just type   /join  #xchat
[13:09] <Ximal> jrib: sir ?
[13:10] <jrib> Ximal: yes?
[13:10] <zeleftikam> sipior: it is definitely set to Adaptive. i can reboot and it still says Adaptive. but even though that is true, it chooses the fastest of the three adaptive modes to stick in when i'm using TwinView
[13:10] <ahmed_> any one here/join #xchat
[13:10] <mjtunes> ty
[13:10] <Ximal> jrib: it's telling me no monitors found when i try to go to the safe graphics mode and to fix the graphics selection
[13:10] <Ximal> jrib: that is the fatal error i am receiving clearly read now sir
[13:12] <jrib> Ximal: after renaming xorg.conf and restarting X it takes you to safe graphics mode?
[13:12] <Ximal> jrib: no sir . It pauses and then freezes after i hear the ubuntu login bonging sound
[13:13] <Ximal> jrib: well not freezes .. I just lose use of my mouse and keyboard and my NUM LOCK KEY will not illuminate at login after i hear the sounds and the screen appears
[13:13] <jrib> Ximal: did it used to work?
[13:13] <Ximal> yes sir jrib
[13:14] <Ximal> I'm thinking I'll go to the live cd .. backup the important junk i've gotten in the past 24 hours be it only a few tv shows and ecw films
[13:14] <Ximal> and then reinstall using only the hdmi cable now that I know the hdmi output works.. if that doesn't fly then I'll just give up on the hd output
[13:15] <Ximal> though I hate to handicapp ubuntu when I know it's capable of much ore
[13:15] <Ximal> err much more
[13:15] <jrib> Ximal: hmm, that shouldn't be necessary, but I also don't know much about what's going on so it may be the quicker route
[13:15] <Ximal> jrib: thank you and i'll see you later if I survive the move
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> thatst weird. I use hdmi or my dvi and swap them about on my nvidia system
[13:15] <Ximal> thank you
[13:15] <levene> Dr_Willis: seems that the proxy settings in /etc/wgetrc needed editing
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> I am using a dvi -> hdmi converter gizmo.
[13:15] <SteveThing> Anyone familiar with Nessus on 10.04? Having issues with installing and SSL certs
[13:16] <Ximal> Dr_Willis: it's all good willis I'm just reinstalling over 10.04 to get the hdmi from the start ;)
[13:16] <fabi_an_> hi, i'm not able to boot my fresh 10.04 server installation on lvm+raid. I get the busybox prompt and "/dev/mapper/LVM-root not found" message. any thoughts?
[13:16] <zeleftikam> sipior: http://pastebin.com/t4ksRSUx
[13:17] <SPM_> fabi_an_: have you installed raid modules and lvm utils in this system?
[13:18] <fabi_an_> SPM_: i did a standard install with the 10.04 server cd. I used the installer to setup raid+lvm. no manual installation of anything
[13:19] <fabi_an_> SPM_: i wasn't able to boot in the system after the installer completed
[13:19] <SteveThing> Can someone help me with Nessus 4.2.2 and fixing SSL cert issues?
[13:19] <fabi_an_> SPM_: by holding the shift key I got in the grub2 (1.98) menu, the configuration appears to be valid (insmod raid5, raid5rec, mdraid,lvm,ext2)
[13:20] <fabi_an_> SPM_: and my root partition (no separate boot) is ext4
[13:20] <SPM_> fabi_an_: hmm... this can be bug... but now I would try to boot from live cd, chroot into installed system, try to install raid and lvm utils, update initramfs and reboot
[13:21] <fabi_an_> SPM_: can I do that with the server cd? or do I need the desktop cd?
[13:21] <SPM_> fabi_an_: I think that server cd should bu sufficient
[13:22] <fabi_an_> rescue mode?
[13:22] <SPM_> try it... if it boot into terminal it will be good :)
[13:23] <fabi_an_> SPM_: it just doesn't seem to load raid+lvm in the terminal :(
[13:23] <SPM_> fabi_an_: hmm, md devices doesn't exist? :/
[13:23] <fabi_an_> no
[13:24] <SPM_> try modprobe raid1 (or raidX according to level...)
[13:25] <fabi_an_> oh
[13:25] <fabi_an_> there is md0
[13:25] <sdk> I normally use Eterm or rxvt for a terminal, usually Eterm with Escreen, but I just got a really hi res monitor and now the fonts are too small, so I've been spending hours trying to nagivate the morass that is the font management system in Linux
[13:25] <SPM_> fabi_an_: vgscan should map lvm devices
[13:25] <sdk> So, I'm tring to find a terminal that is as powerful as Eterm or rxvt but is more simple to configure.
[13:26] <sdk> And am here looking for suggestions.
[13:26] <fabi_an_> SPM_: false positive, the md0 says "no such file or directory" (if i triy mdadm --start /dev/md0)
[13:27] <fabi_an_> SPM_: vgscan gives no output aparat from "this may take a while"
[13:27] <SPM_> fabi_an_: look in fdisk if partition types are raid auto detect...
[13:27] <dp> just recently, all flash videos started playing at 3-4x, with no sound.  the same thing happens with pianobar.  does anyone have a suggestion on where I could start?
[13:28] <fabi_an_> SPM_: yes, all of the 4
[13:29] <sdk> ideally, a term that will minimize screen real estate, use transparency and have a decent tabbing system (Escreen is *awesome*) but will have a straightforward method of setting fonts and sizes on the commandline.
[13:29] <DoubleString> hey all
[13:30] <SPM_> fabi_an_: hmm, maybe some more special live cd found drives correctly :/ but it's weird, I mount lvm drives from normal desktop install cd...
[13:30] <fabi_an_> SPM_: i will use another cd
[13:38] <stacken> i have a problem guys... how can i install an op system without CD/DVD writer?
[13:39] <imanc> hey ubuntu chaps
[13:40] <imanc> I hvae installed navicat via wine and it has installed into ~/.wine/c_drive/Program Files/premiumsoft/navicat.exe
[13:40] <duffydack> !usb | stacken
[13:40] <imanc> I need to create a link - so I right clicked on the exe file and selected "make link" then moved the link to the desktpo
[13:40] <imanc> bugt when I run it, it says "cannot find DLL" so there appears to be a path issue.   Any ideas how to get around this problem?
[13:41] <_silentAssassin> stacken, which os are u using now .. i guess windows?
[13:41] <_silentAssassin> if so .. then u can use unetbootin ..... requiring ubuntu os image and usb drive
[13:43] <BadJoke> Hi
[13:43] <imanc> Hi
[13:43] <imanc> any ideas aboutthe path issue?
[13:43] <RainRain> looking for a different "show desktop" button, or some way of changing the action to like on xp ... the current button seems to represent a desktop on or off state, whereas the button on xp simply toggles the current state and is much better - any ideas
[13:43] <frxstrem> are there any good alternatives to GNOME Terminal and xterm?
[13:43] <BadJoke> What ?
[13:43] <nakee> I found a ppa of dolphin how can I request it to become an official maintained program?
[13:43] <BadJoke> i am speak english so so
[13:43] <brielle> hi i just installed updates now i don"t have wifi :( 10.04 on acer aspire
[13:45] <rockhopper> ..
[13:46] <sacarlson> brielle: well you can tell grub2 to boot with your old kernel to get wifi working again or you can find the needed driver to compile into your new kernel.
[13:46] <brielle> i tried booting older kernel... didn't work...
[13:46] <rsv> How can i download files from one ubuntu machine to another other than ftp
[13:46] <sacarlson> brielle: oh
[13:47] <jrib> rsv: scp?
[13:47] <brielle> it kept complaining about some lib i'll find out exactly what it is...
[13:47] <rsv> i have 39G to transfer and using ftp it is very slow
[13:47] <Tonus> !rsync | rsv
[13:48] <brielle> libido
[13:48] <abc_> 你好
[13:49] <Tonus> !cn | abc_
[13:49] <abc_> 朋友在哪里
[13:49] <sacarlson> rsv: two local computer?  how slow is slow?
[13:49] <rsv> local computers in 4 hours i have copied only 9G
[13:49] <rockhopper> can smeone suggest me a download manager, which we can set a proxy setting to be used for the downloads?
[13:50] <rsv> using filezilla
[13:50] <sacarlson> Tonus: good pick for rsv: rsync
[13:50] <sipior> rsv: how are the computers connected?
[13:50] <rsv> local network
[13:51] <sipior> rsv: 802.11b? g? 10Mbit ethernet? gigabit ethernet?
[13:51] <sipior> rsv: ip over carrier pigeon?
[13:51] <rsv> 100M
[13:53] <sipior> rsv: you might check the interfaces with ifconfig: look to see if there are a large number of collisions detected. or are these both plugged into the same switch?
[13:53] <rsv> they are plugged into the same switch
[13:54] <rsv> Collisions are 0
[13:54] <ilmenite> what runs on port 34008 ? i just opened http://localhost:34008/ (one of the two only open ports my system has) and it prompts for a username and password, root's credentials doesnt work
[13:54] <sipior> rsv: is scp any faster? you might even have a go with netcat...
[13:55] <rsv> okay, let me continue with ftp
[13:55] <sacarlson> rsv: what does that add up to about 900kb/sec?
[13:55] <ilmenite> is there a gui to chkconfig?
[13:55] <rsv> sacarlson: i havent computed the speed yet
[13:55] <sipior> ilmenite: try "sudo netstat -antup | grep 34008"
[13:56] <sacarlson> rsv: that was my ruff estimate
[13:56] <mooby> does ubuntu lucid use grub or grub2 ?
[13:56] <aguitel> grub2
[13:56] <rsv> its okay, its around 9GB now i have to wait
[13:57] <ilmenite> sipior: weird, i have python there as well as something called beam.smp
[13:57] <ilmenite> whats beam.smp?
[13:57] <rsv> does rsync overwrite the files if it already exits?
[13:57] <sacarlson> rsv: I normaly get about 5meg/sec about with windows and ubuntu over samba
[13:57] <rsv> Tell me about samba
[13:57] <rsv> i have 2 ubuntu machines
[13:57] <rsv> laptop and desktop
[13:57] <sacarlson> rsv: with 100meg ethernet
[13:57] <rsv> taking backup
[13:57] <rsv> yes
[13:57] <Pici> !enter
[13:57] <rsv> i have 100M ethernet
[13:58] <rsv> Pici: sorry
[13:58] <sacarlson> rsv: maybe you could get about 5X faster with some other method
[14:01] <sacarlson> !samba | rsv
[14:06] <coz_> hey guys...has synaptic freezing the system been reported at all?  I have had the same problem with lucid from day one... also on lucid edubuntu.. synaptic will freeze the system... text console...as root... killall synaptic ...log in   open software sources first then open synaptic for it to work
[14:06] <coz_> clean installs by the way
[14:07] <A71KR117> coz_ IDK, maybe check google?
[14:07] <UndiFineD> coz_, how much memory do you have ?
[14:07] <rsv> when i try rsync, it just lists the file, it wont download it
[14:08] <aeon-ltd> coz_: hdd full?
[14:08] <coz_> aeon-ltd,  no not even close
[14:08] <coz_> i did find a report on ubuntu forums just now
[14:08] <sipior> coz_: you get the console by logging in remotely, or via alt-f1?
[14:09] <sipior> ctrl-alt-f1, rather.
[14:09] <UndiFineD> coz_, you may want to remove the *.bin files from /var/cache/apt, they will be rebuild on update
[14:09] <A71KR117> coz_, try emptying out the cache, in the console type this in: sudo apt-get clean
[14:09] <coz_> sipior,  well I have to use  ctrl+alt+F1  after the system freezes
[14:09] <sipior> coz_: so the system doesn't actually freeze...
[14:10] <coz_> sipior,  in the stricktest sense   no   but nothing including cursor input is available
[14:10] <sipior> coz_: but keyboard input is. did you notice any other processes running whilst in console?
[14:10] <Routers> guys
[14:11] <coz_> sipior,  yes
[14:11] <Routers> how to kill all the pid from a specified user in ubuntu ?
[14:11] <coz_> sipior,  but no applications are available
[14:11] <sipior> coz_: sorry? which processes did you notice?
[14:11] <coz_> sipior,  none
[14:12] <sipior> coz_: so when you said "yes" just now...
[14:12] <Routers> its has 7000 processes
[14:12] <Routers> i want to kill it all by one command
[14:12] <Routers> how ?
[14:12] <RainRain> could someone explain what launchers are - i have tried making a launcher on the desktop to both a script and a folder(location) and neither work at all
[14:13] <sipior> Routers: check out the "-u" switch to killall
[14:13] <WinstonSmith> hi ppl
[14:14] <aeon-ltd> RainRain: launchers are the equivalent of shortcuts to apps
[14:14] <A71KR117> RainRain: a launcher is like a shortcut on windows. Right click on the menu bar (the one with apps, places, system) and click new launcher.
[14:14] <sacarlson> Routers: try this and see if it works sudo pkill -u username
[14:15] <RainRain> can i not just put a launcher on the desktop ?
[14:15] <A71KR117> RainRain: oops, click edit menu, then click new launcher
[14:15] <RainRain> i was right click on dtop >> add new launcher >> fill in the bits = nothing happened
[14:15] <A71KR117> RainRain: you can right click on it in the menu and then click add launcher to desktop
[14:16] <RainRain> which menu again
[14:16] <Routers> sacarlson : its says invalid passwd sudo for me
[14:17] <A71KR117> RainRain: just right click on any
[14:17] <sacarlson> Routers: what does that mean you don't have sudo privliges?
[14:17] <Routers> i must root first ?
[14:17] <A71KR117> sacarlson: Routers: maybe you misspelled the password
[14:18] <jinxx> Ubuntu keeps breaking my triple-boot configuration (Sabayon, Fedora, Ubuntu) -- currently Ubuntu is only recognizing Fedora and doesn't add Sabayon to grub.  Is there some way to fix this automatically or do I have to keep modifying my grub.cfg every time ubuntu updates it?
[14:18] <RainRain> A71KR117: doesnt work --- the option comes up but nothing happens
[14:18] <sacarlson> Routers: no but your user must be in the sudoers list and yes maybe you misspelled your password
[14:18] <A71KR117> RainRain: what doesnt work?
[14:18] <Routers> sudo pkill -u routers <- like this rite ?
[14:18] <RainRain> add this launcher to panel works but to desktop just does nothing
[14:18] <sacarlson> Routers: looks right to me
[14:19] <sacarlson> Routers: can you sudo ls
[14:19] <Routers> wait pls
[14:19] <RainRain> A71KR117: yes - weird right clicking and then clicking add this launcher to dtop literally does nothing for some reason --- i did an update earlier and need a restart maybe that could be the problem
[14:20] <A71KR117> RainRain: Hit ALT-F2 and paste this in: gconftool-2 --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop --type bool 1
[14:20] <coz_> UndiFineD,  that may have worked  at least for now ... i will continue to test this though ...
[14:20] <Routers> sacarlson
[14:20] <Routers> routers@Central-Server:~$ sudo ls
[14:20] <Routers> [sudo] password for routers:
[14:20] <RainRain> A71KR117: was there supposed to be some effect - didnt notice
[14:21] <A71KR117> Routers: the password isn't suppose to show up for security reasons
[14:21] <tcha> hi
[14:21] <sacarlson> yes so you need to enter your password,  don't you know what it is?
[14:21] <A71KR117> RainRain: try logging off, then logging on again
[14:21] <aeon-ltd> tcha: hi
[14:21] <tcha> I can't activate my touchpad with a dell latitude 13 on ubuntu, got some ideas ?
[14:21] <A71KR117> RainRain: after doing what the earlier message said
[14:22] <RainRain> ok - thanks
[14:22] <Routers> wo
[14:22] <Routers> what should i do now
[14:22] <lap_dragon> will open office work on ubuntu linux?
[14:22] <sacarlson> Routers: wo is that no?
[14:22] <Pici> lap_dragon: openoffice comes default with the desktop install.
[14:22] <lap_dragon> oh
[14:22] <lap_dragon> ok
[14:22] <aeon-ltd> lap_dragon: yes its in the repos if you don't have it
[14:23] <Routers> sacarlson : im a root .. i try sudo pkill -u routers
[14:23] <lap_dragon> can you give me the command to install it? is it sudo apt-get install openoffice ?
[14:23] <aeon-ltd> lap_dragon: should be might be open-office though
[14:23] <lap_dragon> hmm then I am thinking of something else.
[14:23] <A71KR117> RainRain: did it work?
[14:23] <Pici> lap_dragon: the package name is openoffice.org
[14:24] <lap_dragon> What is the free program that is just like microsoft word?
[14:24] <Pici> lap_dragon: Thats it.
[14:24] <lap_dragon> isnt it openoffice writer?
[14:24] <lap_dragon> ok
[14:24] <aeon-ltd> lap_dragon: open office writer
[14:24] <sacarlson> Routers: well the other think I note is your killing yourself  not sure what that will end up with.
[14:24] <jinxx> Ubuntu keeps breaking my triple-boot configuration (Sabayon, Fedora, Ubuntu) -- currently Ubuntu is only recognizing Fedora and doesn't add Sabayon to grub.  Is there some way to fix this automatically or do I have to keep modifying my grub.cfg every time ubuntu updates it?
[14:24] <Pici> lap_dragon: openoffice.org-writer if you just want that.  I don't know how much of the suite it pulls in though.
[14:24] <eugenejvr> i'm new to ubuntu does ubuntu have mailing lists for support?
[14:24] <muthu> i  can't copy or cut the any documents from  system to pendrive.. may you heip me please.....
[14:24] <Pici> !lists | eugenejvr
[14:24] <RainRain> A71KR117: yes something happened alright - now i've got tons of launchers - thanks for your help --- what would the problem have been do you thinkg
[14:25] <tcha> so nobody can help with the touchpad ? I tried tpconfig but nothing works
[14:25] <eugenejvr> thanx
[14:25] <A71KR117> RainRain: an update probably changed the GConf settings.
[14:25] <RainRain> A71KR117: thanks again
[14:25] <UndiFineD> coz_, I do that once in a while
[14:26] <A71KR117> RainRain: ur welcome
[14:26] <Mimo> hi i want to share a drive (samba) and a fat partion is not really working for me cause i get files over 13 gig and fat doesn't know how to handle
[14:26] <Mimo> so
[14:26] <Mimo> NTFS is the next best sollution?
[14:26] <Routers> great
[14:26] <Routers> its done
[14:26] <Routers> thanks
[14:26] <jrib> Mimo: ask #samba
[14:27] <aeon-ltd> Mimo: does windows need it? if not ext2/3/4 might be better
[14:27] <WinstonSmith> tcha, try installing gpointing-device-settings
[14:27] <tcha> WinstonSmith: ok thank you I look that
[14:27] <Mimo> aeon-ltd: it's in a way they.. it's just an ordanairy file server
[14:27] <coz_> UndiFineD,  it makes sense ... but not in the long run... and I recall having to do this a while back on a previous version...but i do really appreciate the reminder :)
[14:27] <coz_> brb
[14:28] <aeon-ltd> Mimo: ok ext2/3/4 will be better (choose depending on what kind of hdd it is)
[14:28] <WinstonSmith> Mimo, if u share over samba the underlying partition type does not matter
[14:28] <tarzeau> i'd use xfs
[14:28] <vairam> may you any one heip me
[14:28] <aeon-ltd> !ask | vairam
[14:28] <Mimo> aaah okej tought so but was just curious
[14:29] <Mimo> merci all
[14:29] <tcha> WinstonSmith: it is done, but it only detects the usb mouse
[14:29] <Mimo> aeon-ltd: will try EXT thanks
[14:29] <iEatChildren> Im trying to make it so when i play an mp3 gmail voice chat thinks its my mic...how would i go about doing this?
[14:29] <sacarlson> Mimo:  I guess there is fat32  how big can those get with fat32?
[14:29] <WinstonSmith> tcha, what type & model ol laptop?
[14:29] <WinstonSmith> of*
[14:30] <A71KR117> vairam: what is the problem>
[14:30] <tcha> dell latitude 13
[14:30] <CorpusCallosum> hi i searched on web a little but i just want to ask you too. I have ubuntu 10.04 and i installed vmware player on it. However my guest XP freeze after for a while. 3GB RAM and COREDUO processor. any idea ?
[14:30] <tcha> WinstonSmith: dell latitude 13, synaptics touchpad
[14:30] <lap_dragon> Ok is it possible to get my external audio card to work with the built-in speakerS?
[14:30] <lap_dragon> It is a usb audio card
[14:31] <spermcube> just to let u guys know i solved my problem with lvm and restoring a pvcreated volume.
[14:31] <theslob> lap_dragon: soldering iron !!
[14:31] <lap_dragon> ugh
[14:31] <spermcube> mk2fs -n /dev/sdc1
[14:31] <spermcube> then e2fsck -b "backupblock" /dev/sdc1
[14:31] <lap_dragon> Anybody have any serious answers?
[14:31] <spermcube> worked a charm
[14:32] <karlo> how I can instal XVID ?
[14:32] <karlo> .. for firefox
[14:32] <theslob> lap_dragon: you'll need to solder the speakers only to the audio aut port of the laptop, then connect external soundcard with a wire to the port, should work fine
[14:32] <WinstonSmith> tcha, do a xinput list |grep -i touchpad please
[14:33] <vairam> i can copy the documents from pendrive to system.. but,i can't copy any kind of documents including videos  from system to pendrive
[14:33] <A71KR117> variam: where are the documents located? can you move them to 1 folder?
[14:33] <|GaiJin|> Anyone having issues with having to restart the network after disconecting from a router? I cant reconnect to it after I have dissed. thoughts?
[14:33] <tcha> WinstonSmith: the result is empty
[14:33] <|GaiJin|> vairam permission problem?
[14:34] <lap_dragon> ugh
[14:34] <sacarlson> Mimo: ya seems fat32 has a file size limit of no biger than 4gig so if your files are that big 4gig or the total size of partition will need to be biger than 32gig then ntfs will be you next option to support windows over samba to ubuntu
[14:34] <aeon-ltd> lap_dragon: speakers built in to what?
[14:35] <lap_dragon> theslob, are there any diagrams you could link me to of a VGN-N320E vaio?
[14:35] <lap_dragon> Built into my laptop
[14:35] <robert99> hey, have specific problem with scim-anthy under lynx, want to type japanese but can't input hiragana n . checked all the online resources and they all tell me to type double n as usual but then i get a hiragana nya. Who can help me with this? Thanx Rob
[14:35] <aeon-ltd> lap_dragon: no. (short answer) without modding
[14:35] <Mimo> sacarlson: but i just heard that ext3 will do as well cause  if u share over samba the underlying partition type does not matter
[14:36] <theslob> lap_dragon: its only 2 wires so you don't need a diagram
[14:36] <aeon-ltd> lap_dragon: experimental but you could use a 3.5mm jack going out of the usb audio card to the input jack of your laptop then output using built in speakers(although imo built in speaker suck for notebooks)
[14:36] <sacarlson> Mimo: oh I thought you needed windows support,  yes ext3 would be better if you just want ubuntu to access it.
[14:36] <aeon-ltd> lap_dragon: kind of a dirty workaround though
[14:36] <Mimo> well i use win7 and have a fileserver (ubuntu)
[14:37] <theslob> aeon-ltd: danger, might damage internal audio or both
[14:37] <Mimo> so still need ntfs?
[14:37] <aeon-ltd> Mimo: does windows need to mount it?
[14:37] <sacarlson> Mimo: oh I see,  ya ext3 then is better
[14:37] <imfede> big problem: i've just installed ubuntu 10.04 and it works perfectly but, when i plug my wireless belkin card, everything crashes and i need to shutdown manually my pc. what can i do?
[14:37] <Mimo> no no need for mounting
[14:38] <ximal> jrib : you there ?
[14:38] <sacarlson> aeon-ltd: I guess windows can mount ext3 also with 3rd party software added.
[14:38] <jrib> ximal: yes
[14:38] <aeon-ltd> Mimo: then no, you don't need ntfs
[14:38] <jrib> !away > alex88[away]
[14:38] <lap_dragon> I am going to open up my laptop and see if I can figure anything out.
[14:38] <aeon-ltd> sacarlson: yeah but i've found those kinds of software to be quite buggy
[14:38] <lap_dragon> I hope I don'tbreak anything
[14:38] <ximal> good
[14:38] <Mimo> ok  great sparing with you guys thanks
[14:38] <lap_dragon> Wish me luck
[14:38] <aeon-ltd> lap_dragon: good luck
[14:38] <tcha> WinstonSmith: what is strange is that tpconfig detects it
[14:39] <sacarlson> aeon-ltd: good to know,  but I never used them and not sure I will.
[14:39] <aeon-ltd> lap_dragon: note: ground yourself first
[14:39] <arnold> ok
[14:39] <tcha> "found synaptics touchpad"
[14:39] <lap_dragon> I am turning it off
[14:39] <ximal> jrib : check private msg friend
[14:42] <imfede> big problem: i've just installed ubuntu 10.04 and it works perfectly but, when i plug my wireless belkin card, everything crashes and i need to shutdown manually my member:pc. what can i do?
[14:42] <LordDoskias> hi
[14:42] <LordDoskias> is there a tutorial how to make an ubuntu install into a hotspot
[14:43] <LordDoskias> without using any of the captive portal software packages
[14:43] <LordDoskias> i mean i wanna manually sort of do it
[14:43] <pie_time> what is the easiest method for filesharing in a LAN between ubuntu computers?
[14:44] <aeon-ltd> pie_time: samba, nfs
[14:44] <pie_time> aeon-ltd, someone told me it was sshfs
[14:44] <pie_time> and that it was safer
[14:44] <WinstonSmith> tcha, try this : gconftool-2 --set --type boolean /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/touchpad_enabled true
[14:44] <Karen_m> samba
[14:45] <aeon-ltd> pie_time: if you've got a firewall they're pretty much the same, yeah ssh keys might be slightly safer but not significantly better
[14:46] <jrib> pie_time: you asked "easiest" not "most secure", do you need the transfer to be encrypted on your local network?
[14:46] <pie_time> jrib, bo
[14:46] <aeon-ltd> bo?
[14:46] <pie_time> jrib, no
[14:46] <aeon-ltd> lawl :)
[14:47] <jrib> pie_time: then use samba or nfs as aeon-ltd suggested.  You can use samba by just right clicking on a directory in nautilus and sharing it
[14:47] <pie_time> jrib, it's not working in my bridged virtual machine though
[14:47] <WinstonSmith> imfede, try booting with the card already plugged in?
[14:47] <fabi_an_> SPM_: still there?
[14:48] <fabi_an_> SPM_: i'm not able to mount lvm on raid in the live-cd
[14:48] <imfede> fabi_an_: it crashes when the desktop finish loading... :(
[14:48] <tcha> WinstonSmith: thank you, but it didn't work :(
[14:48] <tcha> WinstonSmith: touchpad still inactive
[14:48] <Linnk> If i wanted to start python scripting what programs would you recommend?
[14:49] <aguitel> imfede, what chipset use this card?
[14:49] <SPM_> fabi_an_: hmm - and see you the md devices or not?
[14:49] <jrib> Linnk: python and your favorite editor
[14:50] <fabi_an_> SPM_: yes, the md0 is there. (and is resyncing)
[14:50] <fabi_an_> SPM_: but vgscan doesn't output anything. new ideas?
[14:50] <imfede> aguitel: i don' know but on ubuntu 9.10 it works...
[14:51] <aguitel> imfede, look in terminal:type lspci
[14:51] <WinstonSmith> tcha, did it never work? do u have a button on your keyboard to disable the TP?
[14:51] <imfede> aguitel:  without the card?
[14:51] <aguitel> imfede, with the card
[14:52] <imfede> aguitel:  if i plugged it the whole computer crashes...
[14:52] <imfede> ù
[14:52] <tcha> WinstonSmith: yeah it used to work, and I have a button looing like the touchpad on the keyboard, but it doesn't activate it
[14:52] <jrib> Linnk: also, #python is a very helpful place
[14:52] <Linnk> Gotcha thank you very much
[14:52] <tcha> WinstonSmith: Fn+F6
[14:52] <aguitel> imfede, if you use 9.10 live cd or usb

[14:56] <twig_> this is a bit offtopic and if someone knows a better chan to ask in thats fine,  had a win comp hooked up to my network that i was working on, transfered some files for storage to my ubuntu box and run clam to be sure, found some worms and now i want to scan the two laptops that use the network to make sure the crap didnt spread.  looking for recomendations for a livecd or online av scanner
[14:57] <tcha> WinstonSmith: true

[14:58] <jrib> twig_: ##windows
[14:59] <twig_> jrib: k thanks
[14:59] <sacarlson> Sid123:  i Can't remember but it seems at install of mysql it requires you to enter a admin user and or password.  if you don't remember I think I might just reinstall mysql.  there must be other ways if you forget the password.  I'm just not sure
[14:59] <twig_> jrib: even though it makes me feel dirty to type that word
[14:59] <twig_> hehe
[15:00] <tieinv> twig: try trinity rescue kit  live cd
[15:00] <jrib> twig_: copy and paste :)

[15:05] <stanmancan> jrib: yup
[15:05] <imfede> aguitel: what also can i do? :) thx
[15:05] <tishammer> maybe there's a gui for adding entries to automatic mount?
[15:05] <mandravel> apticron?
[15:06] <duffydack> tishammer, sudo blkid
[15:06] <stanmancan> tishammer: !blkid
[15:06] <stanmancan> hm, no bot
[15:06] <tishammer> ok
[15:06] <stanmancan> lol
[15:06] <tishammer> !blkid
[15:06] <jrib> stanmancan: do-release-upgrade did it's thing with no interesting output?  What happens on boot now?
[15:07] <gasull> mandravel: try apticron as other suggests.  I tried this other thing time ago and didn't work: http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/techblog/article/schedule_automatic_updates_on_ubuntu/  I'll try apticron myself now.
[15:07] <stanmancan> jrib: let me run through it again now, and let you know, i have a full sytem inages i can restore to when things go awry
[15:07] <stanmancan> !blkid | tishammer

[15:07] <bazhang> RandyRKelly, people in #ubuntu+1
[15:07] <RandyRKelly> ok
[15:07] <jrib> stanmancan: out of curiousity, what do you use to do that?
[15:08] <WinstonSmith> tcha, do a apt-get purge xserver-xorg-input-synaptics and the apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics plz
[15:08] <WinstonSmith> then*
[15:08] <mandravel> Well there should be an easy option since they already offer the possibility of automatically installing security updates without requiring anything from the user
[15:08] <aguitel> imfede, you read spanish ? because i find solution in some spanish blog
[15:08] <imfede> aguitel:  just a bit
[15:08] <imfede> aguitel:  link it plz
[15:09] <Belserusk> Hey guys. Since Ubuntu 10.04 is a LTS edition, would Kubuntu 10.04 & Xubuntu 10.04 also be LTS?
[15:09] <stanmancan> jrib: I'm running on a VPS hosted with linode.com and for $5 a month you get an autmated monthly, weekly and daily backup image, and one you can do manually, and you can restore at any time
[15:09] <WinstonSmith> Bes
[15:09] <jrib> Belserusk: yes

[15:10] <aguitel> imfede, or make this steps :1)connect your pc with network cable (no wireless card inside) 2)make in terminal :sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install bcmwl-kernel-source
[15:10] <WinstonSmith> duffydack, yes i told him that to no avail :(

[15:11] <stanmancan> !rules | vairam
[15:11] <WinstonSmith> vairam, drivers or drives?
[15:11] <jellow> mandravel: look at this https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/automatic-updates.html

[15:11] <WinstonSmith> tcha, np
[15:12] <mandravel> ok , jellow
[15:12] <sacarlson> vairam: I know it can be done but I just use samba to share with virtualbox.  I think the oem version won't support what you may want but the version direct from oricle will.
[15:12] <mandravel> ... that is a server guide.... think it works the same for standard?
[15:12] <imfede> aguitel:  ok i will try
[15:13] <imfede> aguitel:  thx
[15:13] <WinstonSmith> vairam, u can use virtual folders for that
[15:13] <jellow> mandravel: don't see why not
[15:13] <vairam> how do run the java programs on our ubundu after compile that program without error...?
[15:14] <tcha> WinstonSmith: it worked, thanks a lot :)
[15:14] <jrib> vairam: how do you normally run them?  don't you java -jar whatever?
[15:14] <sacarlson> vairam: I just double click them in nautilus the file browser

[15:18] <Biomechd> i need a bit of help getting something to run. i'm not very fluent with ubuntu.
[15:18] <Vroomfondle> fire away
[15:18] <Biomechd> what i need help with is setting up the World of Minecraft client
[15:18] <mandravel> ok then... easy question... how to modify my user password... the one i use when i login and when ițm asked for when i install something
[15:19] <pure_hate> mandravel, sudu passwd <username>
[15:19] <Vroomfondle> erm, no sudo
[15:19] <Vroomfondle> just type "passwd"
[15:19] <mandravel> sudo passwd mandravel  ?
[15:19] <Vroomfondle> you don't need the sudo or the mandravel
[15:19] <mandravel> ok
[15:19] <switch10_> mandravel: just passwd mandravel
[15:19] <pure_hate> If you want to modify root you need sudo so there is no harm in using it anyway
[15:20] <Vroomfondle> Biomechd: never heard of that
[15:20] <Vroomfondle> what's it not doing? is there an error message?
[15:21] <mandravel> what is the minimum length of the password?
[15:21] <Biomechd> Vroomfondle, i'm not surprised. but i need help with getting the scripts set up so i don't just get a flash of the terminal without the program coming up
[15:21] <gasull> Hi. I'm using encfs but every time I enable the line <volume user="gasull"... at http://dpaste.com/234340/ my system cannot boot up.  I don't get any error message.  It just pauses with the Ubuntu logo splash and never boots up.  Any idea how to fix this?  I was following this directions: https://pragmattica.wordpress.com/2009/05/10/encrypting-your-dropbox-seamlessly-and-automatically/
[15:22] <Vroomfondle> Biomechd: I see they have their own IRC channel. Have you tried there?
[15:22] <Biomechd> people aren't responding
[15:23] <imfede> aguitel:  it works! thx a lot!
[15:23] <Biomechd> i'm in the minecraft help and wom channels
[15:23] <imfede> aguitel:  retreat it does'nt
[15:23] <adv_> anyone can tell me why this is happening? http://pastebin.ca/1925916
[15:24] <aguitel> imfede, all is ok ?
[15:24] <gasull> adv_: because byacc isn't GPG signed
[15:24] <sacarlson> gasull: it apears to be some kind of encypted install?  can't you just install a ubuntu live cd and encypt it later?
[15:24] <adv_> gasull, why ?
[15:24] <gasull> adv_: at least the one you're trying to install
[15:25] <adv_> gasull, the official repos :/
[15:25] <imfede> aguitel:  it seems it works now...
[15:25] <RandyRKelly> hello van anyone tell me how i can remove hte old kernel image from  my boot loader?
[15:25] <RandyRKelly> can
[15:25] <aguitel> imfede, are you with wireless card now ?
[15:25] <enzotib> RandyRKelly, remove the corresponding linux-image-$something package
[15:25] <AsMiTa> #j ubuntu-translators
[15:25] <adv_> gasull, do you get the same warning?
[15:25] <imfede> aguitel: this is another pc...
[15:26] <dcplaya_laptop> is anyone having problems with gmails new linux plugin for webcam support? my mic is now acting weird
[15:26] <gasull> adv_: I don't know it happens sometimes.  look at your /etc/apt/sources.lst and be sure you trust the repos there.  *.ubuntu.com, canonical.com and launchpad.net are OK
[15:26] <imfede> aguitel:  i'm triyng to un-plug and re-plug the card now
[15:26] <phixxor> hey is it still better for compatibility to prefer new Nvidia cards over new ATI ones?
[15:26] <phixxor> when buying
[15:26] <RandyRKelly> ok  i need to do that in terminal enzotib
[15:27] <gasull> sacarlson: I was able to boot my system commenting that line out.  But I wonder why I cannot boot up with that line.
[15:27] <shuman> should apache2 be run by www-data user and group? or nouser or other?
[15:27] <adv_> gasull, i meant for byacc . do you get the same warning?
[15:27] <enzotib> RandyRKelly, you can also use System->Administration->Package Manager
[15:28] <gasull> adv_: no, I don't get it.  I think you are missing the keys
[15:28] <adv_> gasull, which ones?
[15:28] <imfede> aguitel:  if i un-plug and are-plug the card it doesn't crash but it don't find the connection even if i think this is another problem
[15:28]  * gasull have to go for a few minutes
[15:29] <cousteau> hi, should I install flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound? would that help reduce the huge audio latency?
[15:29] <aguitel> imfede, better for you speak with erUSUL ,
[15:29] <stanmancan> jrib: doing the upgrade now, first question is "Configuration file '/etc/securetty' has been mofidfied, package has shipped and updated, do i want o install the packages version, keep my own?
[15:29] <sacarlson> gasull: I just setup an encrypted account today, it's built in on 10.04,  just create an account an select encypt box.  keep on account unecrypted so you can still do repairs and run your user as encypted.
[15:29] <imfede> aguitel:  who is?

[15:37] <duffydack> Agionz, any part in particular
[15:38] <Agionz> duffydack: I'm stuck at 'prepare partitions', it doesn't find any.
[15:38] <sacarlson> in pidgin I can select a user in this room and right click and drops a window down with one with send file.  will that work to send to any irc client or just another pidgin users?
[15:38] <duffydack> Agionz, any other OS installed?
[15:38] <Dingofest2> what's the difference between 'sudo -i' and 'sudo -s' ?
[15:38] <Agionz> duffydack, I just removed everything.. :D
[15:38] <Azerus> my d-link dwa-110 isnt working and im stuck on patching it, any idead?
[15:39] <duffydack> Agionz, you have to make at least / and swap
[15:39] <Azerus> ideas*
[15:39] <jellow> sacarlson: should work for everyone but you can test it on me if you want :P
[15:39] <jack_sparrow> i want to try out sql,so i installed xampp,apache,mysql etc.i start xampp and somehow be able to bring the mysql promt in terminal.But it always ask me connect to database.My question is that can i do sql offline as i dont have permanent network connection??
[15:39] <sacarlson> Dingofest2:  I found that sudo -i  changes the directory you are in to /root were as sudo su leaves you in the room you started in.
[15:39] <Agionz> duffydack, what do you mean?
[15:40] <whileimhere231> Hi. I was wondering if anyone knows why a wireless  connection would be working great and then about 10 minutes into using the wireless it would reduce the download and upload speed to almost nothing. I would then disable and re enable the wireless conecction and once more be up to my real speed for another 10 minutes.
[15:40] <duffydack> Agionz, just let the installer do the work
[15:40] <sacarlson> jellow: what do you have xchat?
[15:40] <fortran> How declined swap partition?
[15:40] <jellow> jack_sparrow: irssi

[15:41] <jellow> jack_sparrow: sorry mt tabs messed up , Did not mean to msg you

[15:42] <jellow> sacarlson: words quick grub fix
[15:42] <Agionz> duffydack, how can I create it if it doesn't see my hard drive?
[15:42] <duffydack> Agionz, you should have the option to have it auto create them
[15:42] <Agionz> duffydack, I don't have any options.. that's the problem.
[15:42] <sacarlson> jellow: yes but it's still says waiting for something

[15:44] <slayton> I currently am recording video from a old camera using a dvd player that records to disk, off of a coax input. I would like to move the recording to my computer so i can deal with video files instead of stacks of dvd's, does anybody know what programs could be used to record a live video stream?
[15:44] <sacarlson> jellow: I just stoped it
[15:45] <Agionz> daffyduck, I completely deleted the hard drive and then made it ext2 with Gparted (which sees the drive)
[15:46] <duffydack> Agionz,  ok..  does it see the partition now?
[15:46] <Azerus> hey wonderin if some1 could help me with my wireless card, im unable to inject packets
[15:47] <sebsebseb> Hi
[15:47] <sebsebseb> !wireless | Azerus
[15:47] <Agionz> duffydack, Gparted does, installation doesn't.
[15:47] <madh2orat> What card and driver are you using?
[15:47] <Azerus> d-link dwa-110
[15:47] <madh2orat> Do you know what chipset it uses?
[15:47] <duffydack> Agionz, hmmm.  I`m not familiar with that problem.  Have you tried the alternate installer? It has more support
[15:48] <Azerus> im not well aware of the chipset
[15:48] <Azerus> any way to find out?
[15:48] <sacarlson> Azerus: lsusb
[15:48] <Agionz> duffydack, I remember trying it some time ago, didn't work either.
[15:49] <Azerus> isnt there any patch for it?
[15:49] <sacarlson> Azerus: assuming it's a usb wifi if not then try lspci  and or lshw
[15:49] <X_Tech__> How to delete the temp file
[15:49] <Azerus> Bus 002 Device 009: ID 07d1:3c07 D-Link System Wireless G DWA-110 Adapter
[15:49] <fidelix> PLEASE, can someone talk to me for 30 seconds on PVT? Please!
[15:49] <X_Tech__> or how can we see the temp files
[15:49] <jrib> !pm | fidelix
[15:49] <duffydack> Agionz, odd..  are you running the installer from a live session (actually logged into gnome with the live user) or just the installer only
[15:50] <sacarlson> jellow: kind of a big file
[15:50] <fidelix> jrib, this has to be on PM. Its not general ubuntu help. I wont take more than 30 seconds, please!
[15:50] <jellow> sacarlson: hmm find you something smaller
[15:50] <Azerus> it is a usb wifi
[15:50] <Viglite> X_Tech__: ls tmp,,,hold on ,that looks tooooo easy
[15:50] <jrib> fidelix: this channel is for ubuntu support only please
[15:50] <Agionz> duffydack, I'm at the moment on the live user. But I've tried the pure installer too.
[15:50] <fidelix> jrib, ok. Thanks for nothing.
[15:51] <duffydack> Agionz, is this 10.04.1 or the older release
[15:51] <X_Tech__> please answer me
[15:51] <naoshige> hi
[15:51] <naoshige> In w3m - how do I see what the URL of the page I'm on is?
[15:51] <jrib> !helpme | X_Tech__
[15:51] <Agionz> duffydack, 10.04 it says on the disc. Other ubuntus have worked, but 10.04 hasn't
[15:51] <sacarlson> jellow: I accepted but it's not coming in at all zero bytes so far.
[15:52] <Viglite> X_Tech__: Here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Howto
[15:52] <X_Tech__> Oh Sorry
[15:52] <Azerus> so is there anyway to patch the d-link dwa 110 driver to support injection?
[15:52] <Viglite> X_Tech__: There are a few ways, that Apt page shows one way,
[15:52] <duffydack> Agionz,  when did you download the iso
[15:53] <Agionz> it came with linux magazine I suppose.
[15:53] <Agionz> July, it says.
[15:53] <slayton> I currently am recording video from a old camera using a dvd player that records to disk, off of a coax input. I would like to move the recording to my computer so i can deal with video files instead of stacks of dvd's, does anybody know what programs could be used to record a live video stream?
[15:53] <ayam_jago> helo, ive problem with my firefox @ ubuntu 10.04
[15:53] <ayam_jago> it wouldnt start
[15:53] <sacarlson> jellow jellow_ so I guess it's broken I accepted the short 13 byte also zero movement
[15:53] <ayam_jago> but if run from terminal by $sudo /etc/bin/firefox it works fine
[15:54] <X_Tech__> oK...
[15:54] <duffydack> Agionz, right, well there is a newer release (10.04.1) so I`d try that..  means downloadin the iso and burning it to cd or usb tho.
[15:54] <cousteau> ayam_jago: the problem is that you have run a graphical app using sudo, that's not save
[15:54] <cousteau> safe
[15:54] <duffydack> Agionz, it will also save you getting a LOT of updates after installing :)
[15:54] <Agionz> duffydack, I tried usb but it didn't start.. Well, I guess I have to get a dvd :D
[15:54] <ayam_jago> cousteau, how do i fix this firefox?
[15:54] <cousteau> maybe you can do something like   sudo chown -R youruser:youruser firefox-config-folder
[15:55] <jellow> sacarlson: Yes very possible or a firewall issue
[15:55] <duffydack> Agionz, a cd is enough
[15:55] <duffydack> Agionz,  what did you use to make the usb
[15:55] <sacarlson> jellow: yes I just fully opened my firewall but the only thing I now I filter is samba
[15:55] <Viglite> slayton: Have you looked at Pitivi?
[15:56] <cousteau> sudo chown -R youruser:youruser /home/youruser/.mozilla
[15:56] <cousteau> ayam_jago: ^^
[15:56] <Agionz> duffydack, I just moved the files to usb drive.. It probably doesn't work like that, does it? :D
[15:56] <duffydack> Agionz,  nope.
[15:56] <duffydack> Agionz, what os are you running now
[15:56] <Agionz> duffydack, just realized it.. well thanks :) I'll try that out.
[15:56] <Agionz> duffydack, this is mac.
[15:57] <ayam_jago> cousteau, thanks it works now
[15:57] <duffydack> Agionz, try unetbootin
[15:57] <sacarlson> jellow: ok try that 13 byte one again.  I have wireshark running to see what it tries to do.
[15:57] <jellow> sacarlson:  ok ill send again
[15:57] <Agionz> duffydack, this is a different computer though..
[15:57] <cousteau> ayam_jago: cool... now, if you want to run a graphic app with admin privileges, use gksudo instead
[15:58] <X_Tech__> how can I work in terminals....some links or tips
