[04:13] <jeeves__> edbian, even with just the IP, it still says "unknowen host"
[04:13] <JustMozzy> Samison, humm... then I am out of ideas. but I remember when I googled that problem that there were many similar problems. including in the /etc/network/interfaces (is that the file?) to set the eth0 wlan0 or whatever interface it is to auto
[04:14] <JustMozzy> not sure if I am talking bs here, correct me if I am wrong. am still a noob
[04:14] <Samison> OK   There is just a brief flash in my panel when I try and add Notification Area
[04:15] <EnigmaticCoder> Does anyone who uses MythTV know if it's possible to install MythTV on top of ubuntu without it "standing alone?"
[04:15] <Samison> And like I said, Ive been looking for nm-applet or network-manager-applet in synaptic and I cant find them
[04:15] <JustMozzy> hummm...
[04:15] <kozik> Option "Touchpad" "Off"  correct?
[04:15] <edbian> jeeves__: I'm getting confused.  Can you sudo traceroute www.google.com    ?
[04:16] <JustMozzy> kozik, where?
[04:16] <kozik> xorg.conf
[04:16] <jeeves__> edbian, one sec, pastebin is taking forever
[04:16] <edbian> Samison: sudo apt-get install nm-applet
[04:16] <edbian> jeeves__: sure
[04:16] <jeeves__> edbian, http://pastebin.com/Bx0r8Drb
[04:16] <edbian> Samison: Then re add those things to the panel, or restart
[04:16] <Meshezabeel_> kozik:  Option          "TouchpadOff"           "1"
[04:16] <zaery> so, I recovered access to a broken drive, but now all I've got is a lost+found folder and everything in it has a name like: "#20229548", but the names of the things inside one of the numbered folders are normal, correct names, does anyone know if i can fix the numbered names?
[04:16] <JustMozzy> kozak, where do I find the file exactly?
[04:17] <Samison> ok  thank you!
[04:17] <AbhiJit> hi guys
[04:17] <shawn146> hi
[04:17] <shawn146> hey guys
[04:17] <AbhiJit> how can i backup basket and sticky notes?
[04:17] <jeeves__> edbian, here's a song that I'm deticating to this server!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pc0mxOXbWIU
[04:17] <AbhiJit> or where do they store notes ?
[04:17] <edbian> jeeves__: Ok, I can see that you cannot ping www.google.ca
[04:18] <jeeves__> edbian, I can't ping anything external
[04:18] <edbian> jeeves__: what about traceroute  ?  Does that work?
[04:18] <jeeves__> edbian, no, anything external comes back with "unknowen host"
[04:18] <edbian> jeeves__: The song is lightening up the mood over here! :D
[04:19] <edbian> jeeves__: no difference between traceroute, traceroute6, and ping
[04:19] <sacarlson> jeeves__: what does sudo route return?
[04:19] <JustMozzy> uhm... is it normal to not have a /etc/X11/xorg.config file?
[04:19] <jeeves__> edbian, that's what I feel like telling myfiance right now
[04:20] <jeeves__> edbian, sudo route returns http://pastebin.com/QRYYjUd4
[04:20] <Meshezabeel_> kozak: to see a list of all commands at the terminal you can also type: synclient -l
[04:21] <sacarlson> jeeves__: you have two networks with the same mask,  that won't work
[04:21] <jeeves__> sacarlson, it's 2 NICs in the same PC.  one is a gig card
[04:21] <edbian> jeeves__: yep, turn off one of those cards or put it on a different network
[04:21] <Cam> Hi EvilPhoenix.
[04:22] <sacarlson> jeeves__: how is 2 nics on the same network going to help anything?
[04:22] <jeeves__> edbian, lol, it worked fine under 8.04!!

[04:23] <edbian> jeeves__: problem: fixed
[04:23] <jeeves__> edbian, not really.
[04:23] <Cam> LOL, it bans nicks?
[04:23] <rww> Cam: for pasteflooding, yes
[04:23] <Cam> Make a f*ckin' user database.
[04:23] <rww> well, quiets.
[04:23] <jeeves__> edbian, I was looking forward to using the one card for internal transfers (it's the gig card)
[04:24] <Cam> It gives you the host every time he talks! Use it!
[04:24] <sacarlson> jeeves__: you can bond two nics into one to get redunency and more speed but's that's not what you did
[04:24] <jeeves__> sacarlson, I don't think the switch will support it!  LOL
[04:25] <edbian> jeeves__: I'm sure you can.  I'm sure I don't know how
[04:25] <jeeves__> true.  Thanks again guys
[04:25] <jeeves__> now, I think it's time for bed.  my cat is staring @ me
[04:25] <edbian> jeeves__: good night!
[04:26] <jeeves__> edbian, have another watch of the video to put a smile on your face!
[04:26] <sacarlson> jeeves__: you might be right about that I"m not sure,  most cheap switch only look at the mac address so it might work,  but in your case I don't think the nic speed will be the slowist in the chain
[04:28] <optik> ok, this may be retarted, but my box has 3 hdds, /dev/sda has boot and /, /dev/sdb has my swap partion, and the rest of it i have assigned to /storage and /dev/sdc is assigned to /storage2 but i cant write anything to /storage or /storage2 nor can i format it or unmount or erase or anything
[04:29] <zaery> are you sure it isn't /mnt/storage or something?
[04:29] <DJCharlie> optik: permissions set right?
[04:30] <skutr3> hhi
[04:31] <sacarlson> optik: what do we see with sudo fdisk -l ?
[04:31] <skutr3> im trying to install ubuntu
[04:31] <skutr3> and i dont understand how to allocate space
[04:31] <skutr3> can anyone help?
[04:31] <mavis> big channel :v
[04:31] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: do you have another partition (such as windows) that you want to keep?
[04:31] <AbhiJit> skutr3, simplest configuration is get 1gb swap and remaining all to / i.e. root
[04:32] <AbhiJit> hi piyushmishra
[04:32] <piyushmishra> how do I add a virtualhost on my local apache?
[04:32] <skutr3> Meshezabell: yes windows 7
[04:32] <piyushmishra> AbhiJit: hi
[04:32] <Meshezabeel_> AbhiJit: generally it's better to have a separate /home in case you want to reinstall the root partition
[04:33] <AbhiJit> piyushmishra, hey that info if given on lamp wiki
[04:33] <mkquist> Meshezabeel_: might wanna aim that at skutr3 too
[04:33] <sacarlson> skutr3: I would have a minimum of 10gb for / root  and about what ever your ram you have as swap,  the rest is not very important
[04:33] <AbhiJit> piyushmishra, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[04:33] <skutr3> Meshezabeel: are you there?
[04:33] <AbhiJit> Meshezabeel_, yes i do have it too
[04:33] <Rave1> skutr3,  the first biggest help someone could give you is to tell you to backup  every thing and anything that you what to keep before you do anything else
[04:34] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: have you decided how much you want for windows and how much for linux?
[04:34] <AbhiJit> Rave1, :D
[04:34] <optik> sacarlson, http://pastebin.com/UhnyNKHv
[04:35] <skutr3> Meshezezabeel i want to give linux the max amount it can have while on a dual boot with windows...
[04:35] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: also, it is generally recommended that you backup your system first before proceeding, just incase a mistake is made.
[04:35] <sacarlson> optik: ok that looks all good,  so what would prevent you from umount?
[04:35] <skutr3> oh sorry spelled your name wrong Meshezabeel
[04:36] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: type mesh (followed by Tab)
[04:36] <skutr3> Meshezabeel i already have a disc
[04:36] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: how big is your hard drive, and how much is currently being used for windows?
[04:36] <optik> sacarlson, had to chown, but put sudo infront of it so i could be owner instead of root x(
[04:36] <optik> sacarlson, im so dumb
[04:36] <sacarlson> optik: this might be a bug that I saw about a week ago in a new version of the kernel,  did you upgrade your kernel recently?
[04:37] <SirFunk> hey, do all keyboard shortcuts get registered somewhere?
[04:37] <sacarlson> optik: ok cool
[04:37] <skutr3> i dont know
[04:37] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: idk
[04:37] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: are you running windows right now?
[04:38] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: I mean is windows running right now so you can check something?
[04:39] <zaery> I have a drive that's unmounted, but still plugged in, and it's still spinning, how do i remove it safely?
[04:39] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_:no im on a live try of ubuntu
[04:39] <luxurymode> zaery: remove the power supply to it, then remove
[04:40] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: i know i have enough space because i installed this before but i had to uninstall because it was problematic
[04:40] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: i want to reinstall
[04:40] <zaery> it's an external usb drive that takes up two usb ports......
[04:40] <AbhiJit> how can i backup basket and sticky notes?
[04:41] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: i dont remember how i partitioned last time though
[04:41] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: here is what I would do as a general guideline: 1) find out how much space your hard drive is and how much space windows is using.
[04:41] <atem> is any girl on this place???? is just curiosity
[04:41] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: how?
[04:42] <IdleOne> atem: yes and this is not a dating site.
[04:42] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: i know my harddrive has 99.9 gb remaining
[04:42] <atem> yea i know, i just wanna know it
[04:42] <zaery> with an external usb drive that takes two ports, the cord looks like a lowercase h(the top being the drive, the bottom being the computer it's plugged into) which one's the power?
[04:43] <Crash1hd> can a folder belong to more then 1 group or only 1 group
[04:43] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: is that 99.9gb currently part of the windows partition, or is it a seperate partition?
[04:43] <zaery> or would disk utility's "power down so that you can remove it safely" be enough? :D
[04:44] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: idk i just remember thats how much windows said i had remaining
[04:44] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: i just wanna know how to allocate disk space so i dont fuck anything up
[04:45] <IdleOne> skutr3: Please keep the language clean.
[04:45] <mkquist> skutr3: do you have more than one partition?
[04:45] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: yeah, it's hard to give you a suggestion if you don't know your partitions
[04:46] <zaery> skutr3: open up disk utility and send us a screenshot :D
[04:46] <sacarlson> Crash1hd: I could be wrong about this but a folder can only be a member of one group but a group can be a part of another group
[04:46] <Crash1hd> sacarlson, ahh ok :) thanks
[04:46] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: can i use GParted to see and take a screenshot
[04:46] <zaery> gparted would work fine, too
[04:46] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: yes you can
[04:46] <skutr3> and send to you Meshezabeel_
[04:47] <piyushmishra> AbhiJit: umm I can't get it to work. :(
[04:47] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: post it on an image posting site
[04:47] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_:  ok hold on
[04:47] <rww> !imagebin
[04:48] <AbhiJit> piyushmishra, #ubuntu-server #httpd
[04:48] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: you should also be able to go to System->Administration->Disk Utility
[04:48] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_:  yeah thats what i was going to do
[04:49] <nunya> is there some way to quickly switch between window managers (ie gnome and ratpoison) quickkly from command line?
[04:49] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: i like Gparted
[04:49] <gotwake88> question: is it a totally idiotic thing to do to send cid through the post?
[04:49] <Samison> Hi  Im back  I tried sudo apt-get install nm-applet and got this error    E: Couldn't find package nm-applet
[04:50] <Samison> Ive lost my network manager applet
[04:50] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: okay, I just didn't think gparted came preinstalled with the livecd
[04:50] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: http://imagebin.org/131933
[04:50] <xangua> Samison: sudo apt-get install gnome-network-manager
[04:50] <xangua> or network-manager-gnome ¿¿
[04:51] <Samison> That is installed, Ive tried reinstalling it, maybe uninstall then reinstall?
[04:51] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: okay, looks like you have some recovery partions stuff going on there or something at the beginning, and not sure why you have about 3GB of empty space in the second spot.
[04:52] <jeeves_moss> is there a way to reimport all the data that was in a database from a system that crashed into a new MySQL install?
[04:52] <xangua> Samison: no idea what do you want
[04:52] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: what do you want me to do?
[04:52] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: I am a bit confused as to why the sda3 is giving you a problem
[04:52] <xangua> nunya: ratpoison¿¿ never head of it...maybe ratpoison --replace ¿¿ the same for : metacity --replace
[04:52] <Samison> I am trying to get my NetworkManager applet back after I installed pppoeconf it disappeared
[04:53] <Meshezabeel_> sda3 should be your windows partition (C: drive), but it has that red exclamation mark and doesn't give a "used" size. Are you sure you shut the drive down correctly?
[04:53] <gotwake88> question
[04:53] <Samison> network-manager and gnome-network-manager are installed
[04:53] <xangua> Samison: do you have notification area in you panel¿¿ if don't add it and then tun: nm-applet
[04:53] <kujablak> Hi, my external hard drive has a problem : it always says that it's full when it shouldn't be because I only used 75% of it, how can I resolve this ?
[04:53] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: ^ that was for you
[04:54] <j_ayen_green> so if I'm in vbox, and I need to boot from a live cd and mount my original file system to edit, the live cd image is ide, and the vbox hard disk file is sata... it seems to go for the hard disk image as primary all the time
[04:54] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: uhhhhhh
[04:54] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: idk
[04:54] <Samison> Notification Area does nothing.  I have no nm-applet
[04:54] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: and I mean, did you shut down windows properly before running the ubuntu live cd?
[04:54] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: tried doing an sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:54] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_:  yes
[04:54] <Samison> is it maybe called network-manager-applet now?
[04:55] <sacarlson> Shoggoth: and?
[04:55] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: you won't be able to resize the ubuntu partition if it had an improper shutdown.  I have not seen that red exclamation mark before, does it say anything if you hover over it?
[04:55] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: didn't work... I've rewritten the xorg.conf by using both X -configure and the nvidia-xconfigu
[04:55] <tripelb> http://i.imgur.com/zSMP2.jpg
[04:55] <nunya> xangua: is there some easy way to type the upside down ?'s
[04:55] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: same problem as before... if I run service gdm start manually everything is fine
[04:55] <Shoggoth> but it just won't boot up with gdm
[04:55] <ack1> Hi guys, question: I have an HP 8440p  running 10.10  the system occasionally is choppy when moving the mouse any idea how to tacklly this problem?
[04:55] <xangua> nunya: buy a latin american keyboard
[04:55] <sacarlson> Shoggoth: I tried to ask you if you had a propriatary video but you had left
[04:56] <exxtreme> I'm using lucid. How do i upgrade to maverick from menu?
[04:56] <xangua> or use laton american keyboard distribution
[04:56] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: yeah... I do... but I tried disabling that too and using straight xorg
[04:56] <xangua> exxtreme: change update setting in Software Origins and set it to update to normal versions
[04:56] <xangua> by default is set to upgrade efrom lts to lts
[04:56] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_: no but i went to info and it said the disk had a bad sector....
[04:56] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: the thing is that the X server works fine when manually invoked standalone or by gdm... it just bombs out when gdm starts at boot
[04:57] <ack1> how do I get rid of keyring?
[04:57] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: really makes no sense
[04:57] <sacarlson> Shoggoth: ok so it's not nvidia or at least not the propriatary part
[04:58] <AbhiJit> how can i backup basket and sticky notes?
[04:58] <AbhiJit> :(
[04:58] <sacarlson> Shoggoth: so when it does work what drivers does it end up using for video and ??
[04:58] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: you'll probably have to go to windows and get that fixed
[04:58] <AbhiJit> is there any basket channel? or i ask in kde channel only?
[04:59] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: anyhow, when you get that done, I'll give you some info that you can use for later:
[04:59] <sacarlson> Shoggoth: oh I have something on my kernel at boot that has a nvidea entry,  I also have nvidia card
[04:59] <genuinewga> Hi, I clean installed Ubuntu Server 10.10 w/ AMP group and then installed sabnzbdplus from the jcfp ppa repo. I just have a command line no GUI though. I can use lynx/w3c to get into localhost:port but externally i can't reach IP:port. So I allowed the sabnzbd port and updated the firewall... with no change :/ ... One more thing is I do launch sabnzbdplus in screen to make sure its running
[04:59] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: I've tried both the proprietary nvidia drivers and the nouveau drivers...both of them work with the manual start of gdm
[04:59] <skutr3> Meshezabeel_:  do you have any idea how to fix it?
[04:59] <ayaka> who know use docbook to output pdf?
[05:00] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: keep in mind this is a config that's been stable for weeks... and it's spontaneously broken
[05:00] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: can't remember how to do a scan/fix for bad sectors in windows
[05:00] <sacarlson> Shoggoth: ok,  but let me look at my kernel entry and see if you have this
[05:00] <skutr3> ok one sec
[05:00] <Rave1> skutr3,  chkdisk
[05:00] <sacarlson> Shoggoth: ya, I'm not sure how that is posible
[05:00] <Samison> Ah ha   I found the Notification Area!  It is invisible because it is empty I think, so the Notification Area is there but I have no NetworkManager applet in it.  Notification Area 2.30.2.  So Im trying to figure out how to get that applet back.  Right now I use pppoeconf through the terminal for a modem connection, and WICD to connect to a router.  I have no nm-applet package, and apt-get fails to retrieve one.
[05:01] <Meshezabeel_> skutr3: you will also need to keep an eye on it as bad sectors often lead to other bad sectors, might need to get a new hard drive at some point
[05:01] <alien_> guys im having a printer issue,here is   http://imagebin.org/131938
[05:02] <alien_> is a kodak ESP 3250
[05:02] <xangua> Samison: if you have wicd installed, you can't have network-manager
[05:03] <Samison> but they still appear in Synaptic
[05:03] <sacarlson> Shoggoth: do you have this in your kernel grub entry --xforcevesa
[05:03] <Samison> Ive even marked gnome-network-manager for reinstallation
[05:03] <jifli> is there anyway to disable gvfs backends?
[05:04] <Samison> wicd, network-manager, gnome-network-manager all installed
[05:04] <relentless> I am having some issues with my install
[05:04] <relentless> There are lines in the middle of my mouse cursor
[05:04] <relentless> and my icons are sall jumbled
[05:04] <Samison> when I first used pppoeconf I had both wicd and NMapplet icons in my panel
[05:04] <xangua> Samison: when you install wicd network-manager is uninstalled
[05:05] <sacarlson> Shoggoth: --xforcevesa  in file /boot/grub/grub.cfg  at line linux	/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-24-generic root=UUID=29692955-fc33-4537-8a65-ac73e82d0e99 ro   crashkernel=384M-2G:64M,2G-:128M --xforcevesa
[05:05] <Samison> Well it didn't
[05:05] <soreau> I am trying to play pool on pogo but their applet just crashes. Is it flash or what's the problem?
[05:05] <Samison> And I just guided someone in the forum whose network-manager wasn't uninstalled when she installed wicd
[05:06] <Samison> so now Im really confused
[05:06] <Samison> Should I mark network-manager for uninstallation then?
[05:07] <Samison> The person I guided also had the two icons in her panel when she was done
[05:07] <Samison> I thought it uninstalled also, so was suprised when she said she has two icons
[05:08] <WhatToDo> i just tried to install 10.10 from a live cd and it froze on the Preparing to install Ubuntu screen...
[05:09] <AbhiJit> how to control mouse pointer using keyboard?
[05:09] <AbhiJit> helpppppp
[05:09] <Meshezabeel_> soreau: yeah, I helped someone else with pogo, I had to uninstall one flash plugin, and install a different one. Can't remember which is which though.
[05:09] <soreau> Seems I might need to install java/jre
[05:09] <MiguelPerez> i install ubuntu 10.10, and the video frozen a little with video & audio.. what happend :( ?
[05:09] <Samison> If I knew how to show an image of my desktop I could show you
[05:09] <Meshezabeel_> AbhiJit: ALT+F1 :p
[05:09] <AbhiJit> ??
[05:09] <soreau> Samison: Print Screen then go to picpaste.com
[05:10] <AbhiJit> Meshezabeel_, its nothing to do with mouse pointer
[05:10] <Samison> ok
[05:10] <milamber> AbhiJit: ctrl + shift + numlock then use the arrows on the num pad
[05:10] <sacarlson> WhatToDo: my computer is old so I have alot of problems with my cdrom drive,  I try to install without it,  it's about 50% posible bad cd read problem
[05:10] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: I'll give that a try... although if that works I'll be even more baffled...
[05:11] <WhatToDo> i installed it yesterday on this computer with no problems
[05:11] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: brb
[05:11] <alien_> are kodak printer compatible with linux ?
[05:11] <AbhiJit> milamber, wow thanks. it works. any way to adjust the speed?
[05:12] <Meshezabeel_> WhatToDo: how much RAM do you have?
[05:12] <AbhiJit> NVM

[05:12] <milamber> AbhiJit: np
[05:12] <AbhiJit> sorry for caps
[05:13] <iRabbit> alien: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=501652
[05:13] <Meshezabeel_> AbhiJit: how do you adjust the speed?
[05:13] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: unfortunately that didn't work
[05:13] <AbhiJit> Meshezabeel_, system->preference->assistive technology->keyboard ->last tab
[05:13] <Meshezabeel_> tx AbhiJit
[05:13] <WhatToDo> 1 gig
[05:13] <AbhiJit> Meshezabeel_, :)
[05:13] <WhatToDo> it installed fine earlier though
[05:14] <linuzo> Question:  What package do I need to install for lgmp?
[05:14] <AbhiJit> what is lgmp?
[05:14] <trism> linuzo: libgmp3-dev
[05:14] <linuzo> thanks
[05:14] <administrator_>
[05:14] <administrator_>
[05:14] <FloodBot1> administrator_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:15] <sacarlson> Shoggoth: bummer
[05:15] <Meshezabeel_> WhatToDo: when the live cd first starts up (when you see the icons at the bottom), you can press Esc to do a disc check and memory scan to see if everything is working okay
[05:15] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: well put :)
[05:15] <WhatToDo> Meshezabeel_: i did a memtest earlier and it found no errors
[05:16] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: thanks for your help... I'm going to give up for a while and do some other work
[05:16] <linuzo> trism: you rock buddy!
[05:16] <Shoggoth> sacarlson: I might have to re-install I'm afraid :(
[05:16] <alien_> iRabbit, no good,there is no support for kodak printers at all
[05:17] <Meshezabeel_> WhatToDo: did you also do a disc test to see if there were any disc defects?
[05:17] <iRabbit> alien_: :(
[05:17] <alien_> i have to pay whatever cost me windows just because i cant have support for my printer
[05:18] <WhatToDo> Meshezabeel_: not yet
[05:18] <iRabbit> alien_: you could write some code to make the printer compatible with linux :)
[05:18] <alien_> i wish i could pal
[05:19] <hutsky> Where can I locate the place to set/reset the association of applications with file type?
[05:19] <iRabbit> alien_: but being opensource a lot of manufactures do not include linux support unfortunately :(
[05:20] <Meshezabeel_> WhatToDo: it's worth checking anyhow, could be a cd issue or dirty drive issue, and that will tell you. Other than that I don't really know what the problem could be.
[05:20] <milamber> hutsky: http://www.ubuntufieldmanual.com/?q=node/64
[05:20] <Samison> xangua: The mouse is over the WICD icon, you can see I've got WICD open and that network-manager is also installed, and my attempt to apt-get nm-applet  http://picpaste.com/Screenshot-RGARki70.png
[05:21] <Meshezabeel_> if the disc test fails on that machine, but passes on another machine that would indicate it is probably either a cd drive or machine issue
[05:21] <DJCharlie> quick question. i've just set up 2 identical servers for a shoutcast station. what would be the easiest way to set them up for automatic failover?
[05:22] <Alan502> Can someone help me using firestarter for internet connection sharing?
[05:22] <Alan502> !ICS
[05:22] <gobbe> DJCharlie: heartbeat
[05:22] <hutsky> Thanks, milamber.  I will check there.
[05:22] <DJCharlie> gobbe: i've looked at that, but i'm unclear. do i need a 3rd machine to run heartbeat?
[05:22] <xangua> Samison: you CAN'T use wicd and network manager at the same time, normally when you install one of the two, the other is uninstalled......something weird you did there....please understand and just use one of the two
[05:23] <Samison> Ya its wierd
[05:23] <AbhiJit> how to backup sticky notes guys????
[05:23] <Samison> And I can't get the nm-applet back
[05:23] <AbhiJit> help[pppp
[05:23] <JEEB> Hey, what's the Ubuntu Japanese font that's been used since Ubuntu 9.10?
[05:23] <xangua> Samison: then uninstall wicd
[05:24] <Samison> what I did was install wicd thru synaptic and then configured a connection with pppoeconf
[05:24] <gobbe> DJCharlie: no. two machines with both having heartbeat
[05:24] <gobbe> DJCharlie: heartbeat will control the shared ip
[05:24] <Samison> I can't uninstall WICD b/c I have no nm-applet
[05:24] <WhatToDo> Meshezabeel_: Check finished: no errors found
[05:25] <DJCharlie> gobbe: ok, say server1 is running sc_trans. won't heartbeat see server2 isn't running it and start it?
[05:25] <Samison> NetworkManager was always dropping my connection when running Transmission
[05:25] <Samison> So I switched
[05:25] <gobbe> DJCharlie: heartbeat is active/passive, so either server is running, other stands still
[05:25] <milamber> AbhiJit: sticky notes (from tomboy) are stored in: home/<username>/.local/share/tomboy
[05:25] <AbhiJit> no
[05:26] <AbhiJit> milamber, sticky note is different and tomboy is different i thin k
[05:26] <DJCharlie> hmm...
[05:26] <AbhiJit> lemee checkk
[05:26] <DJCharlie> gobbe: thanks, i'll try it.
[05:26] <milamber> AbhiJit: tomboy is the default sticky notes app in ubuntu
[05:26] <piosalan> <~~~~ need some help
[05:27] <glcat> glcat
[05:27] <xangua> piosalan: looking for job¿¿
[05:27] <gobbe> DJCharlie: there are other clustersuites also available, but i think that hb is simplest one to set up
[05:27] <glcat> 在吗？
[05:27] <xangua> !jp | glcat
[05:27] <piosalan> I accidentally deleted the partition table for my hard drive. Any links tips? Am I screwed?
[05:27] <AbhiJit> milamber, there are only three files with .note extension but in my 'sticky' not app i have loads of notes
[05:27] <gobbe> !ask | piosalan
[05:28] <gobbe> piosalan, backups?
[05:28] <milamber> AbhiJit: what sticky app are you using (usually found in the menu under help >> about)
[05:28] <piosalan> Sorry
[05:28] <AbhiJit> hey guys anyone knows keyboard shortcut for volume control, brightness when not havinv fn keys?
[05:28] <al_nz1> Can someone please help? I used to be able to browse my windows network, now I cant. (No firewall on Win7 PC)
[05:28] <al_nz1> even tried to connecto to a share and cant do that either
[05:28] <piosalan> Gobbe nada
[05:28] <AbhiJit> milamber, the name of the application is only the 'sticky note' application
[05:28] <AbhiJit> its default in gnome
[05:28] <AbhiJit> but its not the tomboy
[05:29] <gobbe> piosalan. there are tools that can guess your partition table, but they are not 100 pes sure
[05:29] <AbhiJit> both are different
[05:29] <piosalan> gobbe: I was deleting the partition table on a usb drive.  Well my main concern is recovering a few files. If I can't get the an OS running that's acceptable
[05:31] <MiguelPerez> my video/audio is frozen it when i play a song, or video.. what can be ?
[05:32] <milamber> AbhiJit: do alt + f2 and type this in: gedit ~/..gnome2/stickynotes_applet
[05:33] <AbhiJit> milamber, it opens a blank file
[05:34] <gobbe> .gnome2 not two dots
[05:35] <killawat> i had to do a forced shutdown now my wireless isnt working can anyone help?
[05:36] <r00t4rd3d> pci or usb ?
[05:36] <AbhiJit> thanks gobbe
[05:36] <AbhiJit> milamber, yah now i open that configuration file
[05:37] <milamber> AbhiJit: all your notes should be in there. that's the file you need to back up
[05:37] <AbhiJit> oh yah
[05:37] <AbhiJit> milamber, thanks!!! :)
[05:38] <Alan502> Can someone help me using firestarter for internet connection sharing?
[05:38] <Whosisthis> hey
[05:39] <Whosisthis> can anyone help me with powermanagment with ubuntu 10.10 on a laptop?
[05:39] <aihai211> ha
[05:39] <Whosisthis> i need a good app suggestion
[05:39] <genuinewga> I fixed my sabnzbplus issue that I asked for help before by rebooting.. thanks anyhoo, cya
[05:39] <paq7512> what program will image an ntfs drive? or back one up?
[05:39] <milamber> Alan502: firestarter is a firewall. i don't believe it can be used for sharing.
[05:40] <Alan502> milamber, the bot thinks it is
[05:40] <Alan502> !ICS
[05:40] <soreau> Alan502: For sharing you want to setup masquerading. Google 'connection sharing ubuntu'
[05:40] <Alan502> soreau, trust me, i have googled a lot, I even posted a thread in Ubuntu forums but nobody answered :(
[05:41] <Alan502> soreau, yet, none of the tutorials I found seem to work...
[05:41] <milamber> paq7512: you might want to check out dd
[05:41] <Alan502> soreau, firestarter seems as the most solid, and easy, approach
[05:41] <paq7512> what is dd?
[05:41] <soreau> Alan502: I can tell you how to do it but the trick is, you need to disable ubuntu's networking applets
[05:41] <Alan502> soreau, I see, so I would have to kill nm-applet
[05:42] <soreau> Alan502: As well as NetworkManager
[05:42] <Alan502> soreau, to connect to the internet I'm using a huawei modem, it included a linux application for managing it's internet connection, i don't think I can't stop using it
[05:42] <milamber> paq7512: http://linux.die.net/man/1/dd
[05:42] <soreau> Alan502: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370
[05:43] <soreau> Alan502: Well you're going to have to figure that one out yourself but it should be the same basic concepts
[05:43] <Alan502> soreau, which i think i don't have :(
[05:43] <Alan502> what kind of "basic concepts"
[05:44] <milamber> paq7512: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dd_%28Unix%29
[05:44] <soreau> Alan502: masquerading techniques
[05:44] <Alan502> soreau, what is masquerading?
[05:44] <soreau> Alan502: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370
[05:44] <Alan502> I'm looking at it :)
[05:45] <Alan502> soreau, so, basically, after I have done all the steps in the thread my machine will be sharing it's internet connection to ALL the computers in the LAN?
[05:45] <Alan502> soreau, I don't have to configure anything in the other computers?
[05:49] <soreau> Alan502: These are scripts I wrote and use http://pastebin.com/irKnedvT
[05:50] <soreau> Alan502: But I believe you can configure the gateway server for dhcp though I haven't yet
[05:51] <Alan502> soreau, I see, thanks :) but, I need something that does not require configuration on the clients
[05:51] <Alan502> soreau, see, so far, I have been using squid on the main machine, with the internet connection
[05:51] <Alan502> soreau, and the other machines would just connect via the proxy
[05:52] <Jordan_U> Alan502: An easier method with network manger is explained here: http://magazine.redhat.com/2008/10/16/video-fedora-10-connection-sharing/
[05:52] <Alan502> soreau, but, other devices like phones etc, do not support proxy settings, or default gateway settings etc... so I was trying to do something like what windows does
[05:52] <Jordan_U> Alan502: (Works with Ubuntu as well as Fedora of course)
[05:52] <Alan502> Jordan_U, I'll check it :)
[05:58] <Flynsarmy> Launchpad has this bug set as 'fix committed' https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/658555 yet i never received the fix in ubuntu update? any ideas?
[05:58] <Alan502> Jordan_U, the video was nice but it just shows how to set up an adhoc network :P
[05:59] <Flynsarmy> ahh the fix commited was for nautilus-elementary. annoying
[06:03] <soreau> Jordan_U: Does that allow you to forward ports easily as well?
[06:05] <dinasty> what's the difference between a mount --bind and a symlink?
[06:05] <Jordan_U> soreau: Not that I can find in the nm-connection-editor GUI.
[06:06] <soreau> Jordan_U: ok
[06:06] <r00t4rd3d> soreau, what are you trying to do ?
[06:07] <j_ayen_green> I want to test a fstab entry before I put it in, because last time it killed my boot. What do I have to do to this to make it valid as a mount command? /home/jeff# mount //<IP_ADDRESS>/MyComputers/laptop/ubuntu /var/nasbackup cifs username=user,password=pass,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=077 0 0
[06:07] <Jordan_U> Alan502: It also sets up DHCP server and router.

[06:07] <soreau> r00t4rd3d: I was trying to help Alan502
[06:07] <r00t4rd3d> oh
[06:08] <Champ> Alright here is my issue: I had a dual booting windows 7 x64 HE and Ubuntu (not sure of the ver) then my HDD crashed and I lost everything, Operating Systems and all. i had a 1TB backup tho. I went and redownloaded ubuntu (because windows refused to reinstall) and then I installed the USB thing and but the ubuntu boot on my USB Pendrive and went to install on my computer, when I got to the partition screen I plugged in my 1TB backup dri
[06:08] <Champ> ugh long text is long sorry :S
[06:11] <elkng> how can I kill "X" without getting it respawn?
[06:11] <Jordan_U> elkng: sudo service gdm stop
[06:11] <sacarlson> Champ: you should focus on the problem first then give the details
[06:13] <Alan502> soreau, yes, and thank you very much. Unfortunately, it is not exactly what I need, but I'm still searching :)
[06:14] <soreau> Alan502: You will figure it out eventually
[06:14] <elkng> how can I make "X" do not autostart on boot?
[06:14] <Champ> well plain and simple: It wont boot
[06:14] <soreau> elkng: Recovery mode
[06:15] <elkng> do I have to do this: "chmod -x /etc/init.d/gdm" ?
[06:15] <WhatToDo> my ubuntu 10.04 livecd is stuck on the purple screen where the dots fill in to load and wont actually boot the cd
[06:15] <Alan502> soreau, thanks i hope so
[06:16] <soreau> WhatToDo: Did you verify the image and run the cd check utility?
[06:16] <elkng> soreau: I dont want "Recovery mode" just regular boot without "X" only console
[06:16] <sacarlson> champ well sounds like the pendrive  booted so I assume you mean after install your hard drive boot failed,  my guess is you picked the wrong drive to install mbr
[06:16] <WhatToDo> soreau: i did verify the image
[06:16] <bonjoyee> WhatToDo: press Esc during the boot..and see if there are any error messages
[06:17] <Champ> i picked My Book which was K: and I know that is my ext HDD
[06:17] <soreau> elkng: You could -x gdm, not sure what ubuntu would do then (it might still start an X session)
[06:17] <elkng> thanks
[06:18] <Champ> should I have installed to the USB?
[06:18] <WhatToDo> bonjoyee: none
[06:18]  * Champ is confused lol cuz my int hdd is messed so I cant use it
[06:18] <WhatToDo> the disk is clearly spinning for about a minute and then it just stops spinning and the splash screen continues to do its thing
[06:18] <nit-wit> Champ, post this script run in a pastebin. http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/
[06:19] <sacarlson> Champ: you picked sdk as your mbr?  normaly bios boots from sda,  with usb boot sometimes the usb drive might be considered sda so to setup a boot you might need to pick sdb
[06:19] <bonjoyee> WhatToDo: whats the last message?.....and the most current..?
[06:19] <soreau> WhatToDo: I had a computer behave the same way before it died. Now it can only stay running for about 60 seconds before it freezes
[06:20] <Champ> sorry for being a noob but... sdk? mbr? sdb? :S
[06:20] <WhatToDo> soreau: that's promising haha. i just bought this one used.
[06:20] <nit-wit> Champ, the script i posted will get to the bottom of the situation.
[06:20] <Champ> ok tyvm
[06:21] <WhatToDo> i have no problem booting 10.10 to the desktop, but if i try to install it, the installation freezes on the Preparting to install Ubuntu page where you check to download updates while installing
[06:21] <soreau> WhatToDo: Have you tried installing with an alternate cd? Did you run the cd verification program?
[06:21] <sacarlson> nit-wit: champ: I like nit-wit script idea
[06:21] <nit-wit> WhatToDo, have hyou tried a thumb loaded if you can boot one
[06:22] <nit-wit> *you
[06:22] <nit-wit> sacarlson, it is a keeper
[06:22] <koepi> hey folks
[06:22] <WhatToDo> soreau: i tried about  6 cds so far haha some 10.10 some 10.04
[06:22] <WhatToDo> nit-wit: im not sure what you mean
[06:22] <nit-wit> WhatToDo, can you boot a thumb
[06:22] <soreau> WhatToDo: and?
[06:22] <nit-wit> koepi, whats up
[06:23] <koepi> I have a difficult kernel question
[06:23] <WhatToDo> soreau: same result with all of them respective to their individual issues
[06:23] <koepi> not sure if someone could answer it, but it would save much time for me
[06:23] <w8> fjspojdfopiwj
[06:23] <w8> lohs
[06:23] <koepi> is this the right adress for this kind of request?
[06:23] <nit-wit> koepi, ask away we don't know till hyou ask
[06:23] <nit-wit> *you
[06:23] <soreau> WhatToDo: Oh that's not good. nit-wit was asking if you can boot from a usb pen drive
[06:24] <bonjoyee> WhatToDo: disable the network while installing..or the update checking?
[06:24] <koepi> I want to install an kernel from 9.10 in my 10.04 xubuntu
[06:24] <koepi> is that possible?
[06:24] <nit-wit> WhatToDo, you can load the ISO to a thumb and boot it if your computer allows booting from a USB
[06:24] <WhatToDo> oh, in that case no theres no option to boot from a removable device in my BIOS
[06:24] <soreau> koepi: You can but you should ask yourself why you want to do that
[06:24] <WhatToDo> bonjoyee: it doesnt seem to be a problem of connection but an overall freeze in the entire process
[06:24] <koepi> I need that lower kernel to get my old graphic card running
[06:25] <nit-wit> soreau, good question
[06:25] <soreau> koepi: What card?
[06:25] <koepi> that old driver is not supporting the newer kernels anymore
[06:25] <koepi> x800
[06:25] <koepi> ati
[06:25] <koepi> 256 mb
[06:25] <soreau> koepi: Wrong. You *want* the new radeon driver
[06:25] <nit-wit> koepi, try the xswat ppa
[06:25] <bonjoyee> WhatToDo: but its worth a try..
[06:25] <WhatToDo> bonjoyee: then ill go for it. what do i do?
[06:26] <soreau> koepi: It should work OOTB and in 11.04, gallium will be the default (means even better 3D)
[06:26] <koepi> thank you
[06:26] <koepi> I am not really into these shortcuts
[06:26] <koepi> OOTB and xswat?
[06:26] <bonjoyee> WhatToDo: if  you use ethernet. keep the cable unplugged during the install
[06:26] <nit-wit> koepi, https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates
[06:26] <koepi> thank you
[06:26] <soreau> koepi: fglrx no longer supports your card but the default driver in ubuntu is quite capable now. OOTB = out of the box
[06:26] <WhatToDo> bonjoyee: oh ok
[06:27] <koepi> it is working for sure, but not with a 10th of the same performance
[06:27] <nit-wit> soreau, yeah I'm using the generic with a ati
[06:27] <WhatToDo> god this computer
[06:27] <soreau> koepi: Upgrade to the very latest ubuntu and kernel you can to get the best performance
[06:28] <soreau> nit-wit: It's not generic. It's Radeon.
[06:28] <nit-wit> soreau, I have a dell with a old radeon, but I just use it for basic use
[06:29] <koepi> when I use 9.10 I have about 300 fps vial glxgears and at 10.04 I have about 50
[06:29] <koepi> I will check the launchpad
[06:29] <koepi> but thanks anyways
[06:30] <soreau> nit-wit: The 9550-x1900 series cards will run at top performance starting in 11.04 since the gallium driver is now default (meaning opengl2.1 greatness, OSS style)
[06:31] <bonjoyee> koepi: using compiz?  tried disabling kms?
[06:31] <nit-wit> soreau, I had heard that i will have to look at my card on the dell
[06:31] <koepi> I guess there is another way, though I met some who had the same problem with no results
[06:32] <potiphera> If anyone knows about GRUB, encrypted filesystems, and "no init found" errors, could they please read my forum thread and tell me if there's any way to get my system to boot that I haven't tried already?  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1631203
[06:32] <soreau> nit-wit: The HDxxxx series will likely be running very well in future versions of ubuntu with the open radeon driver too
[06:33] <soreau> Can't wait to see some youtube of eyefinity with 6 monitors on radeon open driver running compiz
[06:33] <Champ> http://pastebin.com/d0giZZJH
[06:33] <Champ> from results.txt
[06:33] <nit-wit> soreau, yeah I never use the dell it is a inspiron 4100 kind of old, a backup. It started working again in Maverick.

[06:39] <Hypoglybetic> Hello everyone.  Can someone tell me the Pros and Cons of installing "GRUB Boot loader"?
[06:39] <WhatToDo> although ive tried it without checking download updates while installine...
[06:39] <Champ> from like last year, i got it dec 31 2009
[06:40] <soreau> koepi: Pastebin the entire file to ubuntu.pastebin.com. Open the file in a text editor first, like 'gedit /var/log/Xorg.0.log' and pastebin it then show the link back here
[06:40] <nit-wit> Champ, so you installed to the terrabyte is it a externa;l
[06:40] <nathan777> 1782 ? ssl 0:00 nm-applet --sm-disable     1945 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto nm--applet
[06:40] <nit-wit> *external
[06:40] <koepi> rgr
[06:40] <Champ> the TB is external
[06:40] <WhatToDo> after i click forward, i hear the disk start to spin, and then stop, and it remains on that screen
[06:40] <nathan777> soreau: 1782 ? ssl 0:00 nm-applet --sm-disable 1945 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto nm--applet
[06:40] <bonjoyee> vinok: did you run "sudo sensors-detect"?
[06:41] <nit-wit> Champ, do hyou know the out of the bios boot from menu key prompt
[06:41] <soreau> nathan777: Can you see the network icon in the notification area?
[06:41] <nit-wit> *yiu
[06:41] <nit-wit> *you
[06:41] <Champ> hmm
[06:41] <Champ> no
[06:41] <nathan777> soreau: yes and the wireless card is listed under lspci
[06:41] <vinok> bonjoyee, yes i did and answer yes to all of the questions and save it after it finished scanning
[06:41] <nit-wit> Champ, so mine is f1q2 what is your computer model
[06:41] <WhatToDo> my computer isnt frozen though, i can still click on sound and network connections... the screen wont move though
[06:41] <soreau> nathan777: So what's the problem?
[06:41] <nit-wit> *f12
[06:41] <Champ> I know when I start up, esc goes into a menu where I can access bios from there
[06:42] <Maxeetoh> wiiiii
[06:42] <Champ> but that isnt my main bios key and i cant think of it
[06:42] <nathan777> soreau: theres no wifi option
[06:42] <nit-wit> Champ, we want a out of the bios menu
[06:42] <Champ> huh? :S
[06:42] <Champ> soryr
[06:42] <bonjoyee> vinok: saved the modules to be loaded on startup? and rebooted since?
[06:42] <Champ> sorry
[06:42] <koepi> soreau: it is done : http://wwww.ubuntu.pastebin.com/Sh680B2E
[06:42] <nit-wit> Champ, most don't know about this what is the computer model
[06:42] <WhatToDo> now i got an error message "Install is not responding. You may choose to wait a short while for it to continue or force the application to quit entirely."
[06:42] <Champ> hang on
[06:42] <soreau> nathan777: Does iwconfig show a wifi iface?
[06:42] <Champ> ill get it
[06:43] <nit-wit> Champ, cool
[06:43] <Hypoglybetic> hi
[06:43] <nathan777> sireau: no
[06:43] <ali_> s
[06:43] <ali_> hi
[06:43] <vinok> bonjoyee, yup, i rebooted. then installed sensors-applet from synaptics, added it to my panel. it can detect the CPU and GPU temp but not the fan anymore. it's really strange.
[06:44] <Hypoglybetic> ali_ are you familiar with GRUB ?
[06:44] <bonjoyee> WhatToDo: at what stage of install?
[06:44] <Champ> NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
[06:44] <soreau> koepi: The problem is lines 71-74. That means the fglrx glx module is installed
[06:44] <Champ> best buy fuuuuuu
[06:44] <nit-wit> Hypoglybetic, whats the problem  missed it
[06:44] <koepi> ok
[06:44] <bonjoyee> vinok: whats the output of sensors?
[06:44] <Alan502> !ping
[06:44] <koepi> I understand that
[06:44] <koepi> thats not my problem generally
[06:44] <WhatToDo> bonjoyee: before the actual install even started and before i could select how to deal with my hard drive and partitions
[06:44] <koepi> I have two drivers installed
[06:44] <Maxeetoh> i think i have the same problem u.u only boot ubuntu :P
[06:45] <nit-wit> Champ, is it a HO acer thats really all I need to know
[06:45] <Hypoglybetic> nit-wit, I've been having a hellish time installing Ub Server 10.10 -- Is GRUB a good thing to have or useless or what? Ub will be my only OS (or only Host OS)
[06:45] <soreau> koepi: So you need to get rid of fglrx depending on how you installed it
[06:45] <Champ> no its an HP
[06:45] <koepi> yea
[06:45] <koepi> would not change my performance with any driver I got
[06:46] <nit-wit> Hypoglybetic, you will need grub or lilo, whats happening
[06:46] <nit-wit> Champ, hold on
[06:46] <Champ> ok
[06:46] <soreau> koepi: See 'dpkg -l|grep fglrx' and remove all packages and if you used the installer from ati, look for an uninstall script in /usr/share/ati/ . Then reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx and -dri then reboot
[06:47] <koepi> thank you
[06:47] <vinok> bonjoyee, what do you mean by the output? are you referring to sensors-applet (GUI) in my panel? if yes, in the preferences part it shows 4 categories. libsensors, acpi, hddtemp, nvidia. thats all in 10.4 it also shows fan category
[06:47] <Hypoglybetic> Nit-wit I am just running into one small bug after another.  The last installation gave me a GRUB rescue error and I couldn't do anything.  So if Grub wasn't required I wasn't going to go with it.  I'm a super newbie.
[06:47] <ali_> How can update ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10
[06:47] <soreau> ali_: very carefully
[06:47] <nit-wit> Champ, try booting and hit the f9 key
[06:47] <Champ> ok, sec
[06:48] <bonjoyee> vinok: run "sensors" in a terminal...and paste the output on pastebin
[06:48] <nathan777> soreau: so i had both a usb and the pci because the usb was picking up a better signal and now both of them stopped working and theres no wifi option
[06:48] <soreau> nathan777: What chipset is the PCI card?
[06:48] <earwigs> Hypoglybetic: weird, havent had a single bug yet
[06:49] <nit-wit> Hypoglybetic, I use a script to analyze this sort of stuff you can boot a live cd with a desktop and run it
[06:49] <taiyal> My computer just recently stopped recognising my external USB hard drive and my USB card reader (both storage devices), but still recognizes the mouse when it's plugged into the same ports. Also, plugging in the non-recognised storage devices doesn't make anything appear in dmesg. What could be the problem?
[06:49] <Champ> It went to change boot device
[06:49] <milamber> !upgrade | ali_
[06:49] <bonjoyee> WhatToDo: try some options in F6 menu..on the install startup screen..if that makes any difference
[06:49] <nathan777> soreau: im not sure whats the chipset is but the cards a netgear wg 3111t
[06:49] <nit-wit> Champ, did you get the menu boot from
[06:49] <WhatToDo> bonjoyee: just mess with them and see what happens?
[06:49] <soreau> nathan777: Install the PCI card then run 'lspci' and tell us what chipset it actually is exactly
[06:50] <Champ> I got the what device you want to boot from menu
[06:50] <bonjoyee> WhatToDo: they are failsafe..wont hurt..
[06:50] <vinok> bonjoyee, http://pastebin.com/qm0bnKu8 here it is
[06:50] <taiyal> lsusb also shows no change when I plug in the affected devices
[06:50] <Champ> so i guess so
[06:50] <nit-wit> Champ, is it booting now
[06:50] <Champ> sec
[06:50] <taiyal> My computer just recently stopped recognising my external USB hard drive and my USB card reader (both storage devices), but still recognizes the mouse when it's plugged into the same ports. Also, plugging in the non-recognised storage devices doesn't make anything appear in dmesg. What could be the problem?
[06:50] <nathan777> soreau its vt6102
[06:51] <Hypoglybetic> nit-wit If I run into another system failure I will take you up on that offer.  But I think this one might be stable. I'm trying to setup a media server / virtual host.
[06:51] <nit-wit> Hypoglybetic, alright do you want a link to the script
[06:51] <soreau> nathan777: That's not enough information
[06:52] <Hypoglybetic> sure, does it come with monkey instructions? Because I don't know much (for now).
[06:52] <nathan777> soreau: via technologies inc vt6102 rhine-II rev 74
[06:52] <ali_> Please Answer How can update ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10
[06:52] <milamber> !upgrade | ali_ already answered
[06:53] <Champ> well no I went to the which boot device to boot from menu and just sat there didnt know which to choose (I have chosen them all before and none worked) so I turned off my comp and restarted so now im waiting to see what it boots to
[06:53] <nit-wit> Hypoglybetic, no monkey instructions lol but the first line tells you where grub is pointed to boot.  http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/
[06:53] <i_is_broke> ali_, try going into the repos and changing the settings from lts to normal release and update
[06:53] <soreau> nathan777: See if the last post here helps http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=522260
[06:53] <paipimenta> I'm reading an article about Sun's lack of community around OpenSolaris, and the author refers to a "kernel.org vs. Ubuntu" fight.... http://thunk.org/tytso/blog/2008/04/19/what-sun-was-trying-to-do-with-open-solaris/
[06:53] <paipimenta> what is he talking about?
[06:53] <nathan777> soreau and now when i plug in the usb the light that says it has power flashes on then after about a sec turns off when it used to be a steady green
[06:54] <nit-wit> Champ, I wonder if not knowing the USB is the problem the script looks as if it should boot. I see no internal HD though
[06:54] <splazo> Anyone else had a problem with overzealous power management? I've set power management to put computer to sleep when inactive for never, but the darned thing still keeps powering down my wireless card every half hour or so. Is there something I have to adjust other than Control Center -> Power Management?
[06:54] <rww> paipimenta: try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic. distro politics aren't on-topic here.
[06:54] <Champ> hmm
[06:54] <paipimenta> rww: thanks
[06:54] <ali_> thank ubottu
[06:54] <Champ> so you mean my computer might not recognise the usb?
[06:55] <nit-wit> Champ, is the internal still there and plugged in
[06:55] <bonjoyee> vinok: run "sudo sensors-detect" once again the paste all the output on pastebin
[06:55] <ali_> salam bar va bache irani
[06:55] <soreau> nathan777: In general, always assume that device LED's are completely meaningless
[06:55] <Champ> internal is still there. you think its trying to bot from it when it cant?
[06:55] <WhatToDo> When I try to install Ubuntu 10.10, the install application freezes before the actual install even begins. I have tried several CDs. How can i make the install work?
[06:55] <Champ> bot = boot*
[06:55] <nit-wit> Champ, if only a year old it should there may be a on off switch in bios hard to say really
[06:56] <Champ> hmm lemme check brb (comps in different rooms so running around back and forth lol)
[06:56] <nit-wit> Champ, the internal doesn't even show in the script which is strange
[06:56] <splazo> WhatTODo: sounds like you don't have enough RAM to run the live CD.
[06:56] <xaq> hello all, i have made a huge noob mistake and i would really like to know if there is any coming back from it...
[06:56] <WhatToDo> splazo: I successfully installed it two days ago
[06:57] <splazo> Guess not then
[06:57] <WhatToDo> And the liveCD runs fine without installing
[06:57] <WhatToDo> thanks though
[06:57] <splazo> WhatToDo: where does it hang?
[06:57] <milamber> splazo: sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off
[06:57] <vinok> bonjoyee, ok 1 sec
[06:58] <WhatToDo> splazo: the second screen after you select a language
[06:58] <WhatToDo> as soon as i click forward on the download updates while installinfg page
[06:58] <zezu> packages installed through apt directly, or through software center / synaptic are all not adding themselves to the panel menus anymore ... at least not the last few ,, anyone know what causes this ?
[06:59] <Champ> well it is messed up and disabling something in bios has made it so i don here a noise as if the int hdd is struggling to boot (which it doesnt in the end)
[06:59] <soreau> WhatToDo: I think it's either a bug (try (dis)connecting to the internet) or just a bad disk
[06:59] <splazo> limamber: Error for wireless request "Set Power Management" (8B2C) :
[06:59] <splazo>     SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported.
[07:00] <WhatToDo> soreau: ive tried disconnecting from the internet and three disks
[07:00] <Champ> and I get a blank screen for a long time before anyrthing happens really
[07:00] <soreau> WhatToDo: And they all fail in the exact same place?
[07:00] <ali_> see you my friend thank for help me
[07:01] <vinok> bonjoyee, here it is http://pastebin.com/0aYnshCK i'll just reboot again to see if anything changes brb. thanks bonjoyee
[07:01] <milamber> splazo: lspci -v | less
[07:01] <milamber> splazo: and post the output please
[07:01] <Idol_Mind> i'm having trouble backing up information from one install to another. I backed up the defaults with Simple Backup, but when I go to restore them on the new drive, it doesn't restore everything. I have to select each file to restore. Am I missing an option to restore it all?
[07:02] <WhatToDo> soreau: ypu

[07:02] <WhatToDo> soreau: it also fails to boot 10.04 completely
[07:02] <FloodBot3> Maxeetoh: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:02] <Maxeetoh> ups
[07:02] <twiztid> so what whould i do to increase the io blksize so when i access my windows share, the directories arent empty!?!?!
[07:02] <soreau> WhatToDo: Strange. Have you tried any other distro / OS?
[07:03] <van7hu> hi all, could anyone tell me where is the problem in my makefile ?, since it only does with makefile in $(lib_display) and exit
[07:03] <van7hu> u.com/552359/
[07:03] <WhatToDo> WhatToDo: not yet...long story short I tried XP on a CD and it worked fine, Vista and Windows 7 on DVDs and my drive wouldnt recognize them even though I burned them. And that's about it
[07:03] <van7hu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/552359/
[07:04] <splazo> milamember: 0a:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[07:04] <nit-wit> Champ, I notice that the external is a ext3 is this a new install
[07:04] <soreau> ! broadcom | splazo
[07:04] <Champ> yes new install
[07:04] <Champ> i did it today
[07:04] <twiztid> basically, after countless hours of permantly mounting my windows share, i go to browse and the directories are empty! and the only files that DO exist (like .mp3)   wont save or play because it say i dont have permission... but i gave full read/write permissions both server side and in fstab
[07:05] <nit-wit> Champ, do you have anything else plugged i like the thumb when trying to boot. It should be a ext4 as well, not the problem though
[07:05] <nit-wit> *in
[07:05] <splazo> not a big fan of the b43 card either, but it's hard to avoid the things.
[07:06] <Champ> i have my PENDRIVE and my ext HDD
[07:06] <Champ> that is all that is plugged in
[07:06] <kozik> my touchpad has issues with staying dead. ive installed gsynaptics AND pointing devices AND edited xorg.conf and it still wont stay dead once i start typing
[07:06] <WhatToDo> sorry about that, crazy lag. im back
[07:06] <nit-wit> Champ, the pendrive can be booted unplug it and try the external
[07:06] <Champ> ok sec
[07:07] <Champ> does the differnt USB ports make a difference?
[07:07] <WhatToDo> soreau: everything worked great until earlier today and none of my programs would open so i went for a quick reboot and it wouldnt reboot properl
[07:07] <WhatToDo> y
[07:07] <Alan502> ahh somebody help me with ICS! PLEASE! I feel like i'm gonna puke because of not finding a solution XD
[07:07] <Champ> in anything?
[07:07] <nit-wit> Champ, something is going on though when the internal HD doesn't show
[07:07] <splazo> The thing used to behave better before this install. Running 2.6.31-11-rt #154-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT RT.
[07:07] <WhatToDo> and so i went to a liveCD and now it wont boot anything from the hdd
[07:07] <Champ> hm
[07:07] <Champ> lemme see brb
[07:07] <milamber> WhatToDo: i know you have been at this for hours, but how old is the computer?
[07:07] <xiambax> When making a usb key following the instructions on ubuntu.com for mac
[07:08] <xiambax> it doesnt make they key bootable
[07:08] <xiambax> Whats up with that
[07:08] <Idol_Mind> can someone point me in the right direction in migrating my install to a SMALLER drive?
[07:08] <WhatToDo> milamber: i bought it used yesterday at a "yard sale" of sorts. I would guess a couple of years
[07:08] <WhatToDo> It's an HP Pavilion dv5000
[07:08] <van7hu> hi all,what do you use to do make recursively in many directories ?
[07:09] <kozik> no one knows how to kill my touchpad so it stays dead?
[07:09] <soreau> WhatToDo: Sounds like it might be a hardware issue. The PSU is prime suspect followed by possible drive failure
[07:09] <splazo> kozik: should just be a button on your key pad that turns it off
[07:09] <milamber> WhatToDo: not to insult, but you are burning live cds right, not dvds?
[07:09] <kozik> if only
[07:09] <WhatToDo> milamber: no insult taken, but yes they're cds
[07:09] <timClicks> My laptop's brightness wont change - this is a regression from previous versions of ubuntu. Where should I look to investigate the problem?
[07:10] <splazo> kozik: mine's a glyph of a hand sticking out its index finger
[07:10] <WhatToDo> soreau: i hope it isnt because i literally just bought it and everything was working just fine until a few hours ago
[07:10] <splazo> right under  f7
[07:10] <BlueFish_> If there is anyone in here that know how to program in php and could give me some advise where to start "what book can i buy to get started" please let me know
[07:11] <soreau> WhatToDo: If you don't have any spare parts or another pc to test with, your only option might be a repair shop. But first, make sure to test other OS / distro to see
[07:11] <Champ> I took out the pendrive and I kept the external in, restarted and now im waiting to see
[07:11] <splazo> kozik: sorry, fn f7 to be exact.
[07:11] <kozik> splazo mines supposed to be function f-3 but it doesnt do anything in linux
[07:11] <Champ> [01:07:11] <nit-wit> Champ, something is going on though when the internal HD doesn't show <---You man like something bad?
[07:11] <WhatToDo> soreau: i dont really care enough about this computer to repair it honestly. i bought it very cheap to play with. ill try to install something else to get it working at least
[07:12] <splazo> kozik: bummer. Tried killing it in the bios?
[07:12] <kozik> and asus is a bunch of brilliant people who didnt put a kill touchpad option in bios settings
[07:12] <milamber> WhatToDo: soreau is right. you may want to try damn small linux (small download/quick load time).
[07:12] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, have you tried booting a live USB?
[07:12] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: my computer doesnt suppord booting from a USB
[07:12] <WhatToDo> milamber: sort of like puppylinux?
[07:12] <earwigs> <3 ubuntu
[07:13] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, ouch, ok.. how did the memtest go?
[07:13] <soreau> WhatToDo: DSL has a smaller footprint if I'm not mistaken
[07:13] <nit-wit> Champ, I don't know  but the HD should show in the script
[07:13] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: i ran a memtest and a disk check with no errors on either
[07:13] <milamber> WhatToDo: yes that is another good option.
[07:13] <WhatToDo> soreau: ill download it now then
[07:13] <quintopia> any ideas why a microSD card connected via USB card reader might unmount itself always and only when i try to copy files *to* it?
[07:13] <Alan502> ahh somebody help me with ICS! PLEASE! I feel like i'm gonna puke because of not finding a solution XD
[07:13] <kozik> splazo, no option in bios that i see unless theres some magic button i havent pressed yet
[07:14] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, and it fails to boot from HDD or CD?
[07:14] <soreau> Alan502: Try #networking
[07:14] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: Well it fails to boot from HDD, but I think I might've wiped it in GParted. However, it boots from a live CD of 10.10, but not 10.04. It does fail to install 10.10
[07:14] <nit-wit> Champ, you can boot the thumb correct
[07:15] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, does it freeze during keyboard mapping selection during install?
[07:15] <Champ> it takes quite a while but with the thumb and ext hdd in there yes
[07:15] <Champ> it sits at a blank screen forever
[07:15] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: Earlier, right after i select language. Second Screen
[07:15] <Champ> before it decides t boot
[07:16] <vinok> bonjoyee, back still the same..
[07:16] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, I've had this issue before. What type of HDD? IDE or SATA?
[07:16] <Inumedia> What's a good equivalent to MSN for Lucid?
[07:16] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: I think IDE
[07:16] <soreau> Inumedia: pidgen
[07:16] <EvilSushi> the msn messenger?
[07:16] <Inumedia> Ew not pidgen D:
[07:16] <Kartagis> !find mp3splt
[07:16] <bonjoyee> vinok: its not loading a driver for your super IO chip..thats the cause
[07:16] <EvilSushi> I like bitlbee
[07:16] <kozik> inumedia you can try empathy
[07:17] <Inumedia> I have empathy, it's not very good
[07:17] <EvilSushi> Inumedia: try bitlbee
[07:17] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, You might have some luck (if it is SATA) to change the IDE mode from IDE to AHCI (or reverse) and try again. I had a heck of a time getting 10.04/10.10 to install on my HP dv5500 because of that
[07:17] <t-flo> evening all.. I am attempting to burn a 1.2gb AVI to a DVD with brasero. When it is set to data DVD, it works fine. When it is set to video, it says that there isn't enough free space on the disc. Can somebody explain?
[07:17] <quintopia> i agree with EvilSushi
[07:17] <kozik> is there still gaim? you could try that
[07:17] <EvilSushi> gaim is pidgeon.
[07:17] <quintopia> *pidgin
[07:17] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: did that fix it? and if so, how do i do that?
[07:17] <Champ> So is there anything i should do?
[07:17] <EvilSushi> same project new name
[07:17] <quintopia> and pidgin is libpurple
[07:17] <becket> есть русские... помогите!
[07:17] <vinok> bonjoyee, thanks, so what should i do to make it load? is there a way?
[07:18] <soreau> t-flo: Try devede to create an iso, then burn the iso to disc
[07:18] <Myrtti> !ru | becket
[07:18] <nit-wit> Champ, be sure to tab my nick
[07:18] <Champ> ok for highlight i get it :)
[07:18] <kozik> yes i know, but they look a little different. if inumedia is looking for cosmetics
[07:18] <Inumedia> I'm not a fan of empathy, although it's not terrible
[07:18] <nit-wit> Champ, so you ran the script how did you get to a Ubuntu desktop
[07:18] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, It did for me.. took a couple tries... but go into BIOS and there should be an option for RAID mode or IDE mode that will be either IDE, RAID, or AHCI.. trying swapping to/from AHCI mode
[07:18] <t-flo> soreau: devede? Will the iso it makes be playable in a DVD player? That's why I don't want a data disc.
[07:18] <Inumedia> I didn't care much for pidgin either
[07:19] <soreau> t-flo: Yes, that is the whole idea of devede
[07:19] <soreau> ~info devede
[07:19] <soreau> !info devede
[07:19] <kozik> why? cosmetics?
[07:19] <EvilSushi> pidgin is nice ootb OTR support, emapthy lacks this.
[07:19] <Champ> nit-wit, i put in the pendrive and ext hdd and i restarted and let it boot on its own
[07:19] <kozik> im not a fan of empathy
[07:19] <Champ> nit-wit, it takes a while but it works in the end
[07:19] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, There isn't an SD card reader on yours is there? If so, ensure a fake SD card isn't inserted into it
[07:19] <quintopia> oh well
[07:19] <nit-wit> Champ, do you know how to reload grub2
[07:19] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: The only Hard Drive related task in my BIOS is to test it
[07:20] <Champ> nit-wit, dont even know what it is :S
[07:20] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, what about drive order/ide master/slave?
[07:20] <bonjoyee> vinok: did it work in 10.04?
[07:20] <t-flo> soreau: thanks! apt-getting right now
[07:21] <kozik> ok, can i ask if ive edited xorg.conf and ive installed synaptics and pointing devices and i dont see an option in the bios...... is there another perminant (non hammer way) to kill the touchpad
[07:21] <soreau> t-flo: It takes some time to encode but after you get the hang of it, the actual burning becomes the easy part
[07:21] <nit-wit> Champ, here is a link to look at it is only two commands with a sudo fdisk- l first to identify the ubuntu. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%202
[07:21] <kozik> like for good
[07:21] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: there is an sd slot, but nothing in it. nothing about drive order either
[07:21] <Guest40136> what sud i do for this error....(There seems to be a programming error in aptdaemon, the software that allows you to install/remove software and to perform other package management related tasks. Please report this error at http://launchpad.net/aptdaemon/+filebug and retry.)
[07:21] <celestial> hi everyone this might be a newbie question and has probally been asked before but is there really any other differences in linux distros other than package management and packages included?
[07:21] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, k, lemme find mine and look at BIOS, yours is a laptop, right?
[07:22] <kozik> celestial, yeah
[07:22] <soreau> t-flo: and fyi: to open a dvd iso image file, just use totem /path/to/dvd.iso
[07:22] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: yup
[07:22] <celestial> what are they kozik just curious
[07:22] <Guest40136> Traceback (most recent call last):

[07:23] <nit-wit> Champ, does that link make sense to you
[07:23] <vinok> bonjoyee, yeah it did. but only for monitoring. anyways if it can't be done its ok. when i check the fan physically it is working but guess no monitoring for me in 10.10. anyways thanks bonjoyee for enlightening me.
[07:23] <Champ> nit-wit, lemme look at it :)
[07:23] <vinok> bonjoyee, thanks
[07:23] <Katsumi32> hi i have question to burn ubuntu iso to usb i can use unebotin or lili etc but what software i can use to burn windows iso to usb any advice ?
[07:23] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, Have you looked to see if the BIOS version is current?
[07:24] <kozik> celestial, organization. some distros stick things in different folders, and use different commands (note, especially for installing) such as in ubuntu its sudo apt-get
[07:24] <nit-wit> Champ, ask any questions if needed
[07:24] <lazarus_> morning all
[07:24] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: I havent really done anything with the bios
[07:24] <Champ> nit-wit, ok thanks :)
[07:24] <AbhiJit> Katsumi32, ##windows
[07:24] <kozik> i think ubuntu is the easiest one to use
[07:24] <nit-wit> Champ, thats the way we roll
[07:24] <Champ> heh
[07:24] <Katsumi32> AbhiJit, hahahhaha they dont know i asked there many times :)
[07:24] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, Well, give that a shot... see if you can download and upgrade the BIOS firmware
[07:24] <shawn146_> help plz
[07:25] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: alright
[07:25] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, After that, you should be able to change AHCI mode and ACPI
[07:25] <bonjoyee> vinok: as the last bet..you could add the module that worked in 10.04..to /etc/modules in 10.10..not sure it will work though!
[07:25] <shawn146_> i cannot access my folder bash: cd: lib: Permission denied  on my CF card
[07:25] <WhatToDo> well its too late for me, ill give that a shot and then im going to bed
[07:25] <shawn146_> in terminal
[07:25] <AbhiJit> Katsumi32, this is ubuntu channel for ubuntu help only. not for windows help
[07:25] <shawn146_> how do i get in?
[07:25] <celestial> thanks for the info i was just curious it seem though theres minor differences everything else is virtually the same between distros is that right to expevt?
[07:25] <WhatToDo> Katsumi32: i feel you, ##windows isnt very helpful ever
[07:25] <Champ> nit-wit, but I have no windows at all on my computer, just ubuntu so does it still apply to me?
[07:26] <AbhiJit> WhatToDo, start using linux! :p
[07:26] <Katsumi32> AbhiJit, i know it is ubuntu supprt :) i used this channel since 1980
[07:26] <shawn146_> wow...everybody is ignoring me in every channel i ask.....
[07:26] <killown> do anyone here knows a way to save nvidia-settings?
[07:26] <vinok> bonjoyee, yeah i think thats a good idea. i'll try that one a bit later and let u know.
[07:26] <nit-wit> Champ, there is a chance that the grub just didn't load into the mbr master boot record correctly
[07:26] <WhatToDo> AbhiJit: I have ubuntu on my laptop...or at least im trying to get it back on my laptop
[07:26] <AbhiJit> Katsumi32, ?
[07:26] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, Hey, in BIOS is there a screen called IDE Configuration?
[07:26] <AbhiJit> 1980?
[07:26] <killown> .nvidia-settings-rc is not working for me
[07:26] <AbhiJit> mark shuttelworth born then?
[07:26] <Champ> nit-wit, oh ok, still readin through :)
[07:26] <kozik> more or less. some distros are kde centric, (which is more windows like) and some are more gnome friendly (which is more like classic mac)
[07:27] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: Nope
[07:27] <WhatToDo> Can I install DSL or just run it from a live CD?
[07:27] <nit-wit> Champ just the first couple of lines in the section marked 12 reinstalling grub2
[07:28] <Katsumi32> AbhiJit, i know #ubuntu is for ubuntu only and i use ubuntu but need to burn windows to usb and i cant find the roght software to do that so thats why i asked here i tried on #windows but they dont really know
[07:28] <asadr> How do I set a umask for SSH so that it works for non-interactive connections as well
[07:28] <AbhiJit> Katsumi32, its okkkk
[07:28] <Idol_Mind> Hmm, your BIOS must be pretty old... on mine I've got "Configure SATA As (Standard IDE, AHCI, or RAID), ALPE and ASP, IDE Detect Time Out (Sec)" options
[07:28] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: yeah i have nothing like that
[07:29] <kozik> if i go into xorg.conf and i change it to touchpad catchall "off" why does it kill the keyboard and mouse, too?
[07:29] <celestial> one last question kozik i know every linux distro uses the same kernel and many drivers come included in it is that another difference as well that distros add extra drivers that arnt included in the kernel which makes them able to support more iff you get what im asking
[07:29] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, Aight, give it a shot...
[07:30] <piosalan> If I did a "mkfs -t fat /dev/sda" on my hard drive is there any hope of retrieving any data from it?
[07:30] <Idol_Mind> can someone point me in the right direction in migrating my install to a SMALLER drive? 640GB to 80GB SSD
[07:30] <kozik> celestial: not sure i understand
[07:30] <splazo> Katsumi32: why burn the iso? Just format the usb with ntfs, set active and extract the files from the iso. It'll boot after that. I've done it lots.
[07:30] <kozik> are you asking which one has better support?
[07:31] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: noob question: how do i update the BIOS
[07:31] <shawn146_> good night damnit -_-
[07:32] <koepi> soreau : fglrx and xorg ( mesa-utils ) is deinstalled now. which driver do you want me to install now?
[07:32] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, Look on the bottom of the laptop for the exact model (dv5010t or some crap) and then go to hp.com's support section and search for that model number BIOS
[07:32] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, If I'm not mistaken, I do think it is an exe, which will require Winblows to patch it
[07:33] <soreau> koepi: Can you show the output of 'glxinfo|grep renderer'?
[07:33] <WhatToDo> rage.jpg
[07:33] <Champ> nit-wit, is it possible, (i dropped my computer by acident shortly before it crashed,) that i knocked the int hdd loose or something and my data and OS is fine i just shook the HD so much that it cant read? or am i going nuts :S
[07:34] <piosalan> Anyone---- if I did a mkfs -t fat /dev/sda on my hard drive can I tetrei
[07:34] <nit-wit> Champ, yes
[07:34] <koepi> nah
[07:34] <soreau> koepi: It's ok to leave mesa-utils installed, it's just a collection of utilities for any graphics driver
[07:34] <koepi> shouldnt work cause its deinstalled now
[07:34] <Champ> interesting
[07:34] <WhatToDo> too much work for tonight
[07:34] <piosalan> Get any of my old data off it?
[07:34] <koepi> ok
[07:34] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, would you care to continue this via msg?
[07:34] <WhatToDo> bed time, and ill continue tomorrow
[07:34] <WhatToDo> Idol_Mind: thanks for all of your help
[07:34] <Idol_Mind> WhatToDo, aight... well good luck
[07:34] <Champ> nit-wit, so what do you think i would be able to do to, maybe, put it back into place?
[07:34] <nit-wit> Champ, is it a laptop
[07:34] <Champ> yes
[07:35] <koepi> I have a little problem, cause I cannot follow your instructions directly
[07:35] <koepi> I would like to know what you suggest to install
[07:35] <nit-wit> Champ, the hd is probably removable from the outside is it
[07:35] <Champ> i have never figured a way to remove it but lemme see
[07:35] <soreau> koepi: I want to see the output of 'glxinfo|grep renderer'
[07:35] <EvilSushi> how do you edit the grub.cfg in grub2? root editing shows it as read only
[07:35] <soreau> koepi: Or just pastebin your current X log file
[07:36] <nit-wit> Champ, usually just a screw, but we are grasping at straws here
[07:36] <AbhiJit> EvilSushi, gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub
[07:36] <koepi> soreau : with mesa-utils installed I dont have a xorg.conf
[07:36] <soreau> koepi: That is fine. X log and xorg.conf are not the same thing
[07:36] <splazo> Katsumi32: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc721929%28WS.10%29.aspx
[07:37] <EvilSushi> AbhiJit: not there.
[07:37] <AbhiJit> EvilSushi, what is not there?
[07:37] <EvilSushi> AbhiJit: nvm
[07:37] <AbhiJit> :/
[07:39] <kehu> hi~~
[07:39] <koepi> soreau : this it is : http://wwww.ubuntu.pastebin.com/AvMijiqK
[07:40] <iulhk> using ubuntu 8.04 server, how can i verify either my xvfb (xserver) is running correctly or not ?
[07:40] <ZnaxQue> hi
[07:40] <soreau> koepi: Cool, your graphics drivers are working again. Now if you want to go to the next step, you can install xorg-edgers and mesa experimental packages to get gallium working
[07:41] <koepi> thanks a lot, soreau
[07:41] <Cpt_Zyph> guys im stuck, i have ubuntu netbook ed and in trying to setup evolution i cant see the windows enough on this dell mini to see the forward buttons etc etc.. is there something ican do to tweke the windows so they fit correctly?
[07:42] <glaceman> hi guys
[07:42] <ZnaxQue> hi glaceman
[07:42] <glaceman> how to i install a program after i added a PPA ?
[07:42] <soreau> glaceman: apt-get update then apt-cache search for the program you want
[07:42] <nit-wit> glaceman, sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install package name
[07:42] <AbhiJit> glaceman, 1st do sudo apt-get update
[07:42] <AbhiJit> yeah
[07:43] <glaceman> thanks guys
[07:43] <koepi> soreau : am I leading to that point where I will be deactivating KMS?
[07:43] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: unmaximize the screen?
[07:43] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: the netbooks have a resolution problem somtimes
[07:43] <Cpt_Zyph> mkquist i tried that
[07:43] <soreau> koepi: No no, you want kms. It makes gallium feasible
[07:43] <koepi> ok
[07:44] <Cpt_Zyph>  i can move it around but it wont let me resize the window adn i cant minipulate it anyway to fit *(
[07:44] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: or you can try to 'tab' thru the settings
[07:44] <Cpt_Zyph> well i think ill follow some lame guide online so i can see the windows.. this how ever isnt the first app that has had this issue *(
[07:44] <glaceman> how do i look for the package name please
[07:44] <glaceman> im trying to install handbrake
[07:44] <glaceman> i did the suo apt-get update
[07:44] <bullgard4> Maverick > Indicator Applet Session > Hibernate sometimes reports: "s2disk: Snapshotting system" with a blinkiing cursor in the next row and remains in this state. I can  type 'exit <CR>'. Maverick echoes 'exit' but I cannot see any other effect. How to continue troubleshooting?
[07:44] <Cpt_Zyph> understood on tab but i cant see were it goes so 8/
[07:44] <AbhiJit> glaceman, apt-get search <term>
[07:45] <soreau> koepi: But it helps to have a latest kernel because of the k in kms stands for, so this means you want the latest version of ubuntu or hope xorg-edgers repo installs a newer kernel for you
[07:45] <Champ> nit-wit, well I have the screws out lol
[07:45] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: not a fan of netbook edition myself, just use the normal and make due
[07:45] <Champ> what should I do?
[07:45] <Champ> heh
[07:45] <glaceman> AbhiJit: says invalid operation
[07:45] <AbhiJit> ohhh
[07:45] <AbhiJit> its apt-cache
[07:45] <AbhiJit> glaceman, ^^
[07:45] <nit-wit> Champ, it is hard to say as the thumb boots and runs so the basic hardware seems intact, but the HD is not read
[07:46] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: click on the top bar and it move you down to the rest of the screen
[07:46] <Champ> nit-wit, well im stumped :\
[07:46] <koepi> soreau : is it the xorg-edgers-noveau package I'll need?
[07:46] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: lame, but it can help
[07:47] <soreau> koepi: No, xorg-edgers is a repo. To get it all, this should work: sudo apt-get install python-software-properties && sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental && sudo apt-get upgrade
[07:47] <nit-wit> Champ, I am to really
[07:47] <Cpt_Zyph> mkquist im about to try that.. its just a crap dell mini and for the most part the stripped linux seems ot be quite fast.. also the mini netbook as a whole is a problem to use at times but im in the field so i need the portable thing
[07:47] <Idol_Mind> I installed 10.10 x64 on my SSD drive and want to copy everything from my old drive to my new drive. How can I go about it? My old drive has an encrypted home partition.
[07:47] <Cpt_Zyph> mkquist would normal ubuntu run just as fast as this netbook one ?? im not sure were to get good reviews between the 2 or speed tests
[07:48] <milamber> glaceman, Abhijit: aptitude search <packagename> or you can use http://packages.ubuntu.com/ (there is a search at the bottom)
[07:48] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: i think it does, tried the netbook ed, and didnt like it.  Run the regular desktop on my hp mini9, happy with it
[07:48] <glaceman> thanks milamber
[07:49] <AbhiJit> milamber, atitude database and apt-get database is differennt
[07:49] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: I personally dont like the netbook version
[07:49] <Cpt_Zyph> interesting... i will have to try a side by side install or something as i dotn want to take the time to back this machine up quite yet.. but i will admit the window screen rez problems are getting old..
[07:50] <Cpt_Zyph> mkquist may I ask what you found to be the major differance ... as i know this is a matter or prefferance more then anything
[07:50] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: i think the netbook edition is just 'trying' to make the most of the sceen size
[07:50] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: but i dont really find it an advantage
[07:51] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: you can always flip between the two easy enough
[07:51] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: i dont like the restrictions against a regular desktop
[07:51] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: thats what I've read anyway
[07:52] <wealan> Which edition of Linux do you prefer?
[07:52] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: I dont find speed to be a problem at all, but I did upgrade to 2 gigs or ram...
[07:52] <wealan> Ubuntu ?
[07:52] <Cpt_Zyph> i hear ya... thanks for the input man im going to log out for a few before work and find a portable disk rom to bring.. unless i can find a usb install of ubuntu regular
[07:52] <mkquist> wealan: ur in an Ubuntu channel, sooo
[07:52] <Cpt_Zyph> i know fedora has one but im not sure if ubuntu has one as well..
[07:53] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: of course, it, the usb or disc version, will feel slower
[07:54] <AbhiJit> wealan, what you expect from linux? we have specialized distro
[07:54] <Cpt_Zyph> mkquist is there a usb bootable install??
[07:54] <Idol_Mind> Is there an easy way to copy my /home directory to a tar and copy it to a new drive?
[07:54] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: yes
[07:54] <glaceman> can anybody please give me a program to rip dvd's to avi with subtitle support
[07:54] <mkquist> Cpt_Zyph: im assuming you mean Ubuntu btw
[07:54] <Cpt_Zyph> rgr ill go look athat up as im being lazy adn dont want to dig up a external disk drive to use a cd release
[07:54] <ilyekkakai> I am trying to figure out how to make this epson printer utility work - http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man1/escputil.1.html - Apparently I may need to enable bidirectional communication with "CONFIG_PARPORT_1284" but I have no idea where to find this setting to check if it is on or not... can anyone help me find this setting?
[07:54] <glaceman> cause that handbrake worst @#$@#
[07:54] <Cpt_Zyph> mkquist correct
[07:54] <wealan> I am now trying Ubuntu
[07:55] <AbhiJit> Idol_Mind, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=35087
[07:55] <koepi> soreau : I made every command you gave me and there were no errors
[07:55] <wealan> red hat used before
[07:55] <koepi> soreau : but its still the same performance
[07:56] <splazo> cpt_zyph: the iso images are dual purpose jobs that can write a usb image also
[07:56] <AbhiJit> glaceman, http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/?s=dvd+ripping
[07:56] <soreau> koepi: You have to reboot
[07:56] <AbhiJit> !manual | wealan
[07:56] <koepi> fuck
[07:56] <Cpt_Zyph> splazo really...i was nto aware of that ill google hwo to make a usb ubuntu release and ill go download the iso file again
[07:56] <wealan> thanks
[07:57] <milamber> AbhiJit: http://www.andrewault.net/2010/05/03/aptitude-vs-apt-get-comparison-2/         and they work from the same repos
[07:57] <earwigs> wealan: ubuntus pretty well layed out, you should be able to learn it while playing around and do some basic googeling
[07:57] <AbhiJit> :o
[07:57] <syol> lol
[07:57] <AbhiJit> you still stuck there?
[07:57] <AbhiJit> milamber, :OP
[07:57] <wealan> exciting!
[07:57] <AbhiJit> milamber, thnx btw
[07:57] <Idol_Mind> AbhiJit, Is this a 1:1 copy?
[07:57] <soreau> ! language | koepi
[07:58] <earwigs> wealan: have you installed ubuntu yet?
[07:58] <AbhiJit> Idol_Mind, i think so read it carefully.
[07:58] <wealan> already
[07:58] <milamber> AbhiJit: doesn't really matter - synaptic apt/aptitude are gone after 10.10 i believe
[07:58] <Idol_Mind> AbhiJit, Ok, I'll give it a shot... Do you know if this will play nice with an encrypted home folder?
[07:59] <earwigs> wealan: is there anything you wish it did but cant work out how to do it?
[07:59] <splazo> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[07:59] <AbhiJit> milamber, yah
[08:00] <AbhiJit> Idol_Mind, i never tried that method. dont blindly follow the insttuctions and in any case it may damage your data. read it carefully. i am not sure about encrypted folder
[08:00] <wealan> yes ,something i met not so smooth like XP
[08:00] <earwigs> wealan: ?
[08:00] <AbhiJit> wealan, http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm]
[08:00] <AbhiJit> :P
[08:00] <AbhiJit> http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm
[08:01] <wealan> devices need to set
[08:02] <earwigs> wealan: so you cant get some of your devices to work under ubuntu?
[08:03] <Karen_m> hello, I have 2 ubuntu machines that I want to be able to share files between.  Which method should I use?  ftp/samba?   What does the ubuntu community use?
[08:04] <wealan> i have installed it on a notebook,and it work well
[08:05] <wealan> but a Desktop not so lucky
[08:05] <dekita> I used dpkg -i to install package but had to hard exit during the install
[08:05] <wealan> maybe
[08:05] <dekita> now all dpkg -i attempts give the error "Another server is running the configuration process. Sleeping for 5 seconds...."
[08:05] <milamber> Karen-m: are they on the same network?
[08:05] <Karen_m> yes
[08:05] <dekita> any ideas how to fix it?
[08:06] <earwigs> I spent the weekend thinking I had a nasty big memory leak in ubuntu... turns out it was the CPU underclocking itself because of the crazy heat.
[08:06] <milamber> Karen_m: right click, share folder should work and install everything you need (usually a samba solution)
[08:06] <earwigs> time to check the thermal paste
[08:07] <Karen_m> on a livecd, if you logout, what is the login/pass?
[08:07] <milamber> Karen_m: 10.10?

[08:29] <bullgard4> Guest15794: You are required to cite the error message completely.
[08:30] <Guest15794> bullgard4, this is error msg(((There seems to be a programming error in aptdaemon, the software that allows you to install/remove software and to perform other package management related tasks. Please report this error at http://launchpad.net/aptdaemon/+filebug and retry.)))
[08:32] <ebra> hello
[08:32] <bullgard4> Guest15794: So to me it is clear what you should do next: i.) Please report the error in Launchpad. ii.) Try to install wine anew.

[08:33] <milamber> Guest15794: did wine install succeed?
[08:33] <ebra> where is my ip address which gave to me by the isp is stored
[08:34] <splazo> ebra: ifconfig -a
[08:34] <milamber> ebra: at the terminal type: ifconfig        or go to www.whatismyip.com
[08:34] <bullgard4> ebra: Your English is not well understood. Say it in other words, please.
[08:34] <Guest15794> milamber,  no some kind of mscore font was unable to install
[08:34] <milamber> Guest15794: what version of ubuntu?

[08:35] <jhattara> i'm going to install an Ubuntu (probably 10.04 LTS) webserver, and I would like to know if someone has experience with any of the virtualization software: basically installing the actual webserver as a virtual machine ?
[08:35] <Syria> Hi, can I connect the lcd screen to an ubuntu virtual machine? I am using virtual box. and the lcd screen is not detected on the virtual machine.
[08:35] <ebra> bullgrad4, i need the file in which the ip address is stored
[08:36] <milamber> Guest15794: can you open the software center and search for 'bad' packages?
[08:37] <MrAnthrope> Syria, virtualbox uses its own graphics drivers so there shouldn't be any extra steps if your monitor is working in Linux.
[08:37] <bullgard4> ebra: I believe it is stored in the kernel.
[08:38] <rick_2047> I installed cheese and there is something on the screen but it is not clear
[08:38] <rick_2047> any pointers to that?
[08:38] <Syria> MrAnthrope when I connect my ubuntu Meerkat to the lcd screen I lose the boarders, so I wanted to do this using lucid to see if this problem can be solved.
[08:38] <ebra> bullgrad4, I knew that, but i need the file name, because i want to use it in other script
[08:38] <splazo> ebra: it's in /proc somewhere if it's a dhcp address
[08:38] <alexander0> Hi guys i have windows applicatin and i want to run it on ubuntu desktop
[08:38] <ebra> yeah it's dhcp
[08:38] <Guest15794> milamber, how to do tht
[08:38] <greppy> !wine | alexander0
[08:39] <ebra> splazo, yeah it's dhcp

[08:39] <Syria> I have a machine running under Lucid 10.4.1 and when I go to the software center I get use this source instead of install! what should i do please?
[08:40] <skpl> can someone tell me how to set my system so it logs me in automatically?
[08:40] <MrAnthrope> Syria, that sounds odd. :(
[08:40] <splazo> ebra: poke around in /proc/sys/net/ipv4. Should be in there somewhere.
[08:40] <nit-wit> skpl, login in the menu

The syslog says this, http://pastebin.com/UVg2AEYK . Is there anyways I can get it to work? I don't want to lose the videos that I have stored on the DVD.

[08:41] <nit-wit> skpl, menu-system-admin-login
[08:42] <ebra> splazo, i will look there and come here again
[08:42] <skpl> the problem is it doesnt show my user in the dropdown menu
[08:42] <skpl> it wont let me select a user
[08:42] <milamber> skpl: you have to hit unlock and type in your password
[08:42] <skpl> and now i cant even unlock the login menu preferences
[08:43] <skpl> when i push unlock nothing happens
[08:43] <bullgard4> ebra: Let me re-iterate: It is stored in a RAM area which is for kernel use. You need to use a program which fetches this address and shows it to you.
[08:44] <ebra> ok, bullgrad4, could you name one of these programs
[08:44] <gobbe> Rypervenche: maybe your dvd is dirty
[08:44] <splazo> ebra: ifconfig
[08:44] <gobbe> Rypervenche: or there is lot's of scratches
[08:45] <Rypervenche> gobbe: There are no scratches or anything on either of them. I have kept them in the same place since I burned them, which was about 2 years ago.
[08:45] <gobbe> Rypervenche: well, dvd is not longterm archive, as you might know
[08:46] <ebra> splazo, i knew ifconfig but i need to somehow to cut this address
[08:46] <gobbe> Rypervenche: and rw-medias are even worse in archive-usage
[08:46] <splazo> ebra: maybe I should clarify. /proc is just a virtual file system where the kernel stuff stored in RAM that bullgard4 mention can be seen.
[08:46] <Rypervenche> gobbe: Ok, so there's nothing I can do then? I should just throw it out?
[08:46] <splazo> ebra: what? It's not really up to you which IP the isp assigns you. That's their call.
[08:47] <dekita> dpkg issue fixed, was caused by a rogue postinst script..

[08:48] <zach32> help!!!
[08:48] <ebra> splazo, i need it temporary so there is no need to them
[08:48] <Guest15794> milamber, if i try to install wine again (((END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR MICROSOFT SOFTWARE  )))))) this information is appearing
[08:48] <splazo> ebra: by using DHCP you're saying that you'll take whatever ip address you're given. What's up?  Use a different ethernet card then.
[08:48] <milamber> Guest15794: can you pastebin the info?
[08:49] <bullgard4> ebra: One program is "ifconfig".
[08:50] <Guest15794> milamber, its much long  like some type of agreement
[08:50] <milamber> Guest15794: yes, it actually installs msoft dlls so you have to agree to it. it seems like the install is going better this time.
[08:51] <ebra> splazo, i used this line to get the address form ifconfig: ifconfig ppp0 | grep -d : -f 2 | cut -d : -f 2 | cut -d \  -f 1
[08:51] <zach32> i have a usb webcam lsusb Bus 005 Device 002: ID 8086:0630 Intel Corp. Pocket PC Camera but when i run cheese nothing happens....help plz
[08:51] <bullgard4> ebra: Another method is to query http://www.dyndns.org/cgi-bin/check_ip.cgi
[08:53] <splazo> ebra: what's with all the grepping and cutting? Can't you understand the output of ifconfig? ifconfig ppp0 should do the trick. As far as changing it goes, the dhcp server on the other end assigns the IP address to your card based on the card's mac address.
[08:53] <splazo> Until the lease expires, you're stuck with the address unless you use a different card.
[08:53] <amarcolino> trying to figure out if I reinstall grub it will fix the problem with this ubuntu 8.4 fresh install. If I try to boot without the livecd I get 'disk failed', however it works by using the livecd to boot the hard disk, any suggestions on fixing this problem?
[08:54] <bullgard4> zach32: Start Cheese. Start a terminal. Unplug your USB cam. Replug. Watch the ensuing output in the terminal.
[08:54] <Gnea> amarcolino: sounds like your grub became corrupted
[08:54] <splazo> ebra: what exactly are you trying to accomplish with this arcane twiddling, anyway?
[08:54] <ebra> splazo, i don't want all ifconfig result i just need the ip in order to use it in my firewall script
[08:54] <amarcolino> Gnea: yeah that is what I thought but it is a fresh install
[08:55] <splazo> Ah. But you want to change it for some reason.
[08:55] <Gnea> amarcolino: when you installed, did you have it install grub to the MBR of the entire disk or to the partition?
[08:56] <amarcolino> Gnea: I assume the default is tp the mbr considering I didn't change any options
[08:56] <ebra> splazo, i don't want to change it , i just want to force the incoming traffic to pass through my firewall before they had been routed to the network
[08:56] <Gnea> amarcolino: are you dualbooting?
[08:57] <amarcolino> Gnea: nope
[08:57] <splazo> ebra: isn't it doing that already?
[08:57] <Gnea> !grub | amarcolino check out this first URL:
 no device founf
[08:57] <Jordan_U> amarcolino: Why did you install Ubuntu 8.04 and not 10.04?
[08:57] <zach32> found*
[08:58] <Gnea> amarcolino: I also suggest upgrading to 10.04 if you can
[08:58] <ebra> splazo, no i write the script my self so i need it
[08:58] <splazo> ebra: the usual way to accomplish that is to put 2 network cards on your firewall and put everything else on the other side of the firewall. What's the difference with your config?
[08:58] <Gnea> Jordan_U: it's probably all he had at the time
[08:58] <nmvictor> I'm on maverick, I ditched pulseaudio for ALSA and now I cant open System>Preference>Sound , I get the message [Waiting for Sound system to respond]. Please help
[08:59] <amarcolino> Jordan_U: better hardware support for this machine
[08:59] <amarcolino> Gnea: will check that link and see if just reinstalling grub will do
[08:59] <bullgard4> zach32: I appears to me that your USB cam is not suitable for your operating system. Either it is defect, or you'll need to install a special driver for your USB camera.
[09:00] <Jordan_U> amarcolino: Have you filed bug reports (and tagged them as regressions)? If you don't then the problem will likely never be fixed, and you can't use 8.04 forever :)
[09:01] <ebra> splazo, i use my pc as a router and firewall,  when i configure the client getway to the router local ip, they communicat directly with the internet
[09:01] <amarcolino> Jordan_U: By 'better hardware' support I mean the machine specs is not up to date and hardy seems like the best option
[09:01] <Gnea> Jordan_U: heh, people can and do use older versions forever. to say otherwise is to say that previous versions of ubuntu are no good for long-term operation, even if that operation isn't typical of what most people use it for. :)
 im using ubuntu 10.10 laptop hp pavilion dv6000 i also have an integrated cam in the screen that doesn't work
[09:01] <ebra> splazo, so i need the ip to set it as a variable in the iptables script
[09:02] <zach32> both work fine with windows

[09:02] <bullgard4> !sound |  nmvictor
[09:02] <upsla> Gnea: thank u.
[09:02] <Jordan_U> amarcolino: With linux using older versions of software for older hardware doesn't make much sense. If regular Ubuntu 10.04 is too slow try lubuntu 10.04.
[09:03] <Gnea> Jordan_U: we're here to help people support their choice, not to force-feed something to someone that they're clearly not going to use.
[09:03] <bullgard4> zach32: I am not familiar with hp pavilion dv6000. Try to google for "hp pavilion dv6000" and "ubuntu" and may be "web cam".
[09:04] <Jordan_U> amarcolino: As for that error, if you have a broken BIOS you may need to have one of the partitions marked "active" for it to recognise the drive as bootable.
[09:06] <splazo> ebra: I'm more of a perl guy, so you're ungainly expression isn't really how I'd pick the ip out of the ifconfig output. But does it work?
[09:07] <Jordan_U> !away > Putr|Away
[09:08] <ebra> splazo, it is work and the ip came out with the grep and cut , but the prob. is that when i try to set it as variable it just dose not work
[09:09] <Gnea> ebra: devip=`ip r | grep default | awk '{print $5}'`

[09:14] <ebra> Gnea, thanx I will try this
[09:14] <milamber> Sophia23: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list

[09:26] <Prinny> Howdy, all!
[09:27] <Prinny> I was wondering if someone here could help me out with a bit of an issue. I'm not entirely sure how to proceed with getting my sound to work on a laptop. It's a rather fresh install of Ubuntu and I've been digging through the "Debugging Sound Problems" page, but I haven't had any luck.
[09:28] <lazarus_> if im using 4gb ddr3 ram surely i don’t need a 2gb swap
[09:28] <Prinny> Isn't swap meant to be 1.5 times your RAM?
[09:29] <sugoruyo> Prinny: that's quite an old "tradition" from the time when RAM usually was somewhere between 256-768 MB
[09:29] <Prinny> Makes sense.
[09:29] <sugoruyo> in practice you may not need swap at all with 4GB
[09:30] <sugoruyo> depending on your usage and how the kernel chooses to swap stuff out
[09:31] <sugoruyo> lazarus_: however i'm not sure why you'd mind having 2gb reserved for swap, if you have 4gb DDR3 surely you can spare 2GB HDD space just to be on the safe side
[09:31] <skpl> can someone tell me why my login keyring isnt getting unlocked during login?
[09:31] <Prinny> So does anyone know of where I should proceed with the no sound issue? Any pointers?
[09:32] <Prinny> I can provide information, but
[09:32] <Prinny> i dont know what kind.
[09:32] <Jordan_U> lazarus_: Swap is also used for hibernation.
[09:32] <lazarus_> sugoruyo: i dont really mind i was just wondering
[09:33] <lazarus_> i dont hibinate
[09:33] <foss> how to install ns2 in ubuntu 2.8 using sudo apt-get?
[09:33] <sugoruyo> if you hibernate you need swap to be at least as much as your RAM i think

[09:34] <foss> anybody kno?
[09:35] <foss> how to install ns2 using sudo apt-get install command in ubuntu ultimate edition 2.58
[09:36] <lazarus_> which file edits the grub colours
[09:36] <sugoruyo> lazarus_: your system probably made a swap to avoid the possibility of you getting a nice message about a kernel panic

[10:08] <Rickardo1> I´ shall setup ssh keys .. does it matter on wich machine I run ssh-keygen on?
[10:10] <AdvoWork> i just tried ssh user@internalip and ive got: WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!   any ideas please, this used to work, unsure what i've done..
[10:11] <Idol_Mind> I've been trying to clone my install from a larger drive to a smaller drive all day and having loads of problems. If I want to copy only what's in my encrypted home folder to my new install, what do I need to do?
[10:11] <AdvoWork> i know i need to edit /home/rich/.ssh/known_hosts  (well i think i do, it states the problem is 20(i assume line 20) but the lines are continued etc and all encrypted
[10:12] <sugoruyo> AdvoWork: just open the file with gedit
[10:12] <oCean> Rickardo1: If you say, want to use ssh from machine1 to access machine2, machine3 and machine4, you would generate a key at machine1, copy the key to the other machines, and start happy ssh'ing
[10:12] <sugoruyo> and turn off word wrap
[10:12] <sugoruyo> then find line 20 and delete it (it should match the machine you are trying to connect to)
[10:12] <ozfalcon> Need help with some bash scripting
[10:13] <sugoruyo> the garbled data is an encryption key stored for that machine
[10:13] <oCean> AdvoWork: there was probably an ip change on that machine. As sugoruy said, just delete line 20 in that known_hosts file
[10:13] <Rickardo1> oCean: But does it matter which machine the key is generated on?
[10:13] <sacarlson> AdvoWork: I just delete the files in ~./ssh  you can rename the dir if you might be deleting something you need
[10:13] <AdvoWork> sugoruyo, so if it says: Offending key in /home/user/.ssh/known_hosts:20  if i open with gedit, and remove line 20?
[10:13] <oCean> Rickardo1: generate it on the machine you want to ssh FROM and copy it to the machine you want to ssh IN
[10:14] <sugoruyo> AdvoWork: exactly, don't count them though, disable word wrap, enable line numbers on the left side
[10:14] <Rickardo1> oCean: yes, I know.. but does it matter?
[10:14] <sugoruyo> AdvoWork: and then delete
[10:15] <sugoruyo> Rickardo1: the key in question is the public key of the machine you are connecting to, not your public key
[10:16] <oCean> Rickardo1: yes. Generating the key will create the keypair, which is unique.
[10:17] <Idol_Mind> where are the settings for rhythmbox saved?
[10:19] <Wolfsherz> hello, does someone know how i can join my favorite channels automatically when connecting to a server with xchat?
[10:20] <reinier> settings are saved in $HOME/.gconf/apps/rhythmbox
[10:20] <Idol_Mind> reinier, thanx
[10:20] <Ryu_Kurisu> With xchat...sorry, I don't Wolfsherz :)
[10:20] <reinier> you're welcome
[10:20] <oCean> Idol_Mind: playlist files are in ~/.local/share/rhythmbox I think
[10:21] <lazarus_> my bros places menu is messed up click videos opens banshee
[10:23] <Idol_Mind> Ok, so I've copied desktop, documents, pictures, themes, .evolution, .local, .shotwell, and a couple other files... am I missing anything important?
[10:23] <sugoruyo> Wolfsherz: maybe you should ask in an xchat related channel, that being said if you hit the xchat menu and open the network list you can choose the network and edit it's settings where you'll find a place to put the channel names (with the #)
[10:26] <Wolfsherz> someone knows if the font monospace is available for windows?
[10:26] <nothingspecial> lazarus_: Make a folder on our desktop, right click, choose to open with file browser, choose to always do this (or whatever it says, something like that)
[10:27] <Wolfsherz> sugoruyo, thanks, i got my answer there.
[10:27] <lazarus_> nothingspecial: cheers

[10:38] <AceKing> I installed vpnautoconnect-1.1 on my PC. for some reason it's not letting me connect to my VPN at all. It automatically starts with the system and I don't know how to uninstall it, or at least stop it from starting automatically. can someone help?
[10:38] <Ryu_Kurisu> AceKing: How did you install it? Deb?
[10:39] <AceKing> Ryu_Kurisu, yes
[10:39] <AceKing> Ryu_Kurisu, I tried double clicking the file again hoping it would have an uninstall command, but it only had reinstall
[10:40] <Ryu_Kurisu> You might need to go to synaptic and try to find the packages installed with the deb AceKing :)
[10:40] <AceKing> Ryu_Kurisu, I tried that.. It's not there
[10:40] <sre-su> How to open .amr files?
[10:41] <AceKing> Ryu_Kurisu, I looked in System/ Preferences/ Startup, but it wasn't there
[10:41] <om26er> sre-su, if you have codecs installed, just play with rhythmbox
[10:42] <Ryu_Kurisu> You can try this AceKing: sudo dpkg -r package_name (i.e. sudo -r vpnautoconnect-1.1.deb)
[10:42] <Ryu_Kurisu> The package you can drag'n'drop to the terminal :) Ensures you don't type it wrong :)
[10:42] <Ryu_Kurisu> sre-su: What kind of files are .amr?
[10:43] <AceKing> Ryu_Kurisu, Thanks, I'll try that and let you know.
[10:43] <Ryu_Kurisu> Your welcome :)
[10:43] <fructose> Can anyone point me in the right direction for how to troubleshoot bluetooth in Ubuntu 10.10? It cannot detect other devices, nor make itself visible.
[10:43] <EugenMayer> Hello. I just reinstalled 10.10 from fresh ( previews was a upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04 to 10.10) .. suddenly my microphone ( creative xfi ) does not work anymore. Any ideas?
[10:44] <fructose> For instance, anyone have an idea how to find out what device/drivers are being used for bluetooth?
[10:44] <Ryu_Kurisu> fructose: So you've got no bluetooth-indicator in the top-panel?
[10:44] <fructose> Ryu_Kurisu: There is an indicator
[10:45] <Ryu_Kurisu> EugenMayer: Suddenly? Or from the start of the fresh install?
[10:45] <fructose> Ryu_Kurisu: I can tell it to turn on/off, go visible, etc. It's just not visible to other devices, nor can it detect others
[10:45] <EugenMayer> Ryu_Kurisu: yes. the "upgraded" version worked
[10:45] <EugenMayer> Ryu_Kurisu: i diff`ed anything in /etc/modprobe and /etc/modules and it seems to be 100% match
[10:45] <Ryu_Kurisu> EugenMayer: After my fresh install of 10.10 my mic was muted...
[10:46] <AceKing> Ryu_Kurisu, http://paste.ubuntu.com/552410/
[10:46] <EugenMayer> Ryu_Kurisu: iam not new to ubuntu neither to linux ;-)
[10:46] <EugenMayer> AFAIK all channels are unmuted and full volume. I can record from PCM (useless) but i can record from micro
[10:46] <Ryu_Kurisu> AceKing: is it in your home-folder? You can drag and drop the file so it takes the correct package...
[10:47] <AceKing> Ryu_Kurisu, Ok, my mistake. I just copied the name of the file, not the location.
[10:48] <Ryu_Kurisu> AceKing: :)
[10:48] <skpl> can someone help me format my hd?
[10:48] <sre-su> om26er: What codecs are required to play .amr files?
[10:49] <bullgard4> Maverick > Indicator Applet Session > Hibernate sometimes reports: "s2disk: Snapshotting system" with a blinkiing cursor in the next row and remains in this state. I can  type 'exit <CR>'. Maverick echoes 'exit' but I cannot see any other effect. How to continue troubleshooting?
[10:49] <om26er> sre-su, open ubuntu software center and search for 'ubuntu restricted extras' install them and you would be able to play almost every media :)
[10:49] <sre-su> om26er: I've it installed
[10:50] <om26er> sre-su, could you provide me with a sample .amr file?
[10:50] <Ryu_Kurisu> fructose: Did you try this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothHeadset ?
[10:50] <AceKing> Ryu_Kurisu, Ok, I dragged and dropped into terminal, and got the same message. This is was the input: sudo dpkg -r '/home/ace/Downloads/vpnautoconnect-1.1_i386.deb
[10:50] <c_nick> chmviewer for Linux
[10:51] <sre-su> om26er: Umm... the one I need to play is personal recording which got saved in .amr  format.. Hold on lemme see if I've any other
[10:51] <skpl> can someone help me format my hd?
[10:52] <jpds> sre-su: Have you installed libopencore-amrnb0 ?
[10:52] <jpds> sre-su: https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/.amr#Software_support suggests that ffmpeg should be able to play .amr with that installed.
[10:53] <AceKing> skpl, is it an external hd?
[10:53] <fructose> Ryu_Kurisu: That doesn't have anything to do with my problem except it also uses bluetooth
[10:53] <skpl> AceKing: no
[10:54] <om26er> jpds, ubuntu-restricted-extras is installed
[10:55] <AceKing> skpl, you can use the disk utility System/Administration/ Disk Utility. Just make sure you have the right drive :)
[10:55] <Wolfsherz> skpl, what is the problem with formatting the hd?
[10:55] <fructose> Ryu_Kurisu: To me, the first step is figuring out which device/drivers are being used for bluetooth... then I can search for known issues, but lspci doesn't show anything obvious
[10:55] <skpl> AceKing: could you elaborate please?
[10:55] <Anf3t4m1n> hi guys, i have a question for you.... do you know the program pulse audio? i have a dolby 5.1 connected to my sound card in to the digital output, but i can select only "digital stereo" and "analog 5.1"... where can i find the "digital 5.1" exit of my sound card?
[10:56] <AceKing> skpl, is the drive in your computer?
[10:56] <skpl> AceKing: yes, but it says the drive is busy
[10:56] <AceKing> skpl, unmount it
[10:56] <skpl> AceKing: how do i do that?
[10:56] <AceKing> skpl, in the disk utility
[10:57] <sunit> hello, can anybody tell me how to install postgres 8.3 in ubuntu 10.04 LTS server ?
[10:57] <AceKing> skpl, open the disk utility, and find the drive you want to format. If it shows it's mounted, unmount it and you will be able to format it
[10:57] <skpl> AceKing: i dont know how to unmount the disk
[10:58] <AceKing> skpl, do you have the disk utility open?
[10:58] <skpl> AceKing: yes
[10:58] <Oli``> I installed byobu a while ago and have since removed it. Now when I log in (by SSH) I see "-bash: byobu-launcher: command not found". This isn't a critical error but I'd like to stop it trying to load byobu. Anybody know where I can do that?
[10:58] <zipperhead>  anyone knows why alternative install gives me a black screen on first boot after install
[10:59] <AceKing> skpl, click on the drive on the left hand side. You will see where it says Unmount Volume on the right part of the screen towards the bottom
[10:59] <Ryu_Kurisu> Damn, misread something: AceKing try dpkg -r vpnautoconnect-1.1_i386

[11:06] <xtc_> Thank you for information
[11:06] <AceKing> xtc, there is a program "Desktop Recorder" that records in mpeg
[11:06] <zipperhead>  anyone knows why alternative install gives me a black screen on first boot after install
[11:06] <Ryu_Kurisu> AceKing: You need to get the package_name from the deb: dpkg --info /home/ace/Downloads/vpnautoconnect-1.1_i386.deb it should be one of the listings. Then use that package name to remove with sudo dpkg -r package_name
[11:07] <Wolfsherz> rohitnikcool, ok can't help you with that, might have had some advice for wireless, but wired should work just the same as windows... maybe someone else has some advice.
