[04:03] <PCTeacher012> cpudan80:Okay, then i dont know anything else, sorry, maybe someone else can help
[04:03] <digitalexploit> PCTeacher012, you can remove the partitons and install windows, did you want to dual boot?
[04:03] <musikgoat|main> thrillERboy: it should work with file-roller  but i think the command is called p7zip
[04:03] <masque7> thrillERboy: sudo apt-get install p7zip-full
[04:03] <SpenceKid> E: Invalid operation, for all of them
[04:04] <masque7> then file-roller will use that
[04:04] <tgr_> so i just add this line to /etc/fstab?
[04:04] <tgr_> UUID=D27431CF7431B6D7    /media/iomega               ntfs    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[04:04] <masque7> SpenceKid: do you actually have compiz installed?
[04:04] <PCTeacher012> only for a short amount of time because i just want to get my files off ubuntu, then remove it and make windows fill it @ digitalexploit brb
[04:04] <jrib> tgr_: you realize that if you set a label for your drive, it will get mounted to /media/LABEL automatically?
[04:04] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: yes, if that happens to be the UUID,  that seems like an odd one
 it tells me to convert to wave
[04:04] <SpenceKid> i'm pretty sure, i used sympatic program manager and installed everythign for it
[04:04] <PCTeacher012> back
[04:04] <SpenceKid> but i don't see anything
[04:05] <tgr_> so jrib what wouldbe the problem?
[04:05] <musikgoat|main> jrib: i led him down the path of uuid, didn't think about that
[04:05] <jrib> tgr_: hmm?  I didn't say anything about a problem :/
[04:05] <tgr_> ahh i see
[04:05] <digitalexploit> PCTeacher012, it should work but no guarantees. do you have another hard drive?
[04:05] <tgr_> so the files would have a problem?
[04:05] <TunnlRat> Does anyone know of a video capture program that works in linux that will allow me to record while i am playing games such as World of Warcraft?
[04:05] <jrib> tgr_: there's no problem that I see...
[04:06] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: no, what you outputted is fine, test it out
[04:06] <tgr_> is there a problem with /media/iomega being the mountpoint or should it be /home/iomega?
[04:06] <PCTeacher012> digitalexploit: sadly no, cant get money (too young) and cant find my flash drive, so i guess ill take the chance. To partition Ubuntu, must i boot in live CD, or will windows auto do that when installing??
[04:06] <masque7> TunnlRat: kind of like fraps?
[04:06] <jrib> tgr_: your choice
[04:06] <tgr_> ok
[04:06] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: whatever you want,  just make sure you sudo mkdir /media/iomega
[04:06] <tgr_> but now everytime i want to mount or umount the device what do i have to do? mount UUID=D27431CF7431B6D7?
[04:06] <thrillERboy> /usr/bin/p7zip: compressed data not written to a terminal. :/
[04:07] <TunnlRat> masque7, yeah exactly like Fraps, I own fraps but i no longer use windows
[04:07] <musikgoat|main> PCTeacher012: windows will delete ubuntu, thats as smart as it is
[04:07] <musikgoat|main> PCTeacher012: a Live cd will be your best bet
[04:07] <gogeta> bo
[04:08] <tgr_> it is already mounted in media under many different files
[04:08] <OvernightPR> Quick question, if I may; anyone else here had problems getting unetbootin flashdrives to install to EEE PC 900 series?
[04:08] <PCTeacher012> musicgoat|main: Will it let me choose partition? My computer is very old, too old to fully trust, so i want your opionion (it is 8-10 years old)
[04:08] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: it still automounts,  it just always does to the same mount point
[04:08] <musikgoat|main> !tabcomplete | PCTeacher012
[04:08] <tgr_> ok
[04:08] <ubotouou> PCTeacher012: so you want to install windows while keeping ubuntu?
[04:08] <lonejack> hi, problem: upgraded 8.04 to 8.10 but the system has loose the icon to switch off the system on the bar. How can I re-put it?
[04:08] <tgr_> so next question i have is what happens if it gets unplugged or turned off without umounting it? what do i have to do
[04:08] <musikgoat|main> PCTeacher012: If the liveCD works, then you can run the live environment
[04:09] <syntax\> musikgoat|main: my installation stopped.
[04:09] <syntax\> :(
[04:09] <PCTeacher012> is ubotouou a bot? If not, yes
[04:09] <musikgoat|main> PCTeacher012: and use Partition editor
[04:09] <PCTeacher012> musikgoat|main: Yes, i have GParted as of now :)
[04:09] <jrib> tgr_: you shouldn't unplug it without mounting
[04:09] <jrib> erm, unmounting
[04:09] <Ropechoborra> I removed mysql with apt-get remove mysql but /etc/mysql still exists. How can i delete it all from the system?
[04:09] <ubotouou> PCTeacher012: windows will definitely overwrite your ubuntu mbr
[04:09] <tgr_> so if it happens on accident will there be a problem when i plug it back in?
[04:10] <jrib> tgr_: possibly
[04:10] <musikgoat|main> PCTeacher012: but you don't want to make changes while you are running the OS
[04:10] <n8tuserf> Ropechoborra -> you can use rm to delete it
[04:10] <tgr_> ok cool thanks for everything guys!
[04:10] <dsdeiz> is it possible to take a space from my second partition on transfer it to my primary partition? :S
[04:10] <ubotouou> PCTeacher012: so you'll need to do a bootloader rescue from a linux cd
[04:10] <kandinski> hi
[04:10] <xsg> ok i need an unrar program that supports 3.0 not the free unrar-free thta only supports up to 2.0
[04:10] <jrib> Ropechoborra: use "purge"
[04:10] <jrib> xsg: read the link ubottu gave you
[04:10] <PCTeacher012> ubotouou: Well, i dont want to boot into linux, i only want to copy files after i install windows, then delete it
[04:10] <jtaji> xsg: try unrar-nonfree
[04:10] <Ropechoborra> jrib, purge? apt-get purge?
[04:11] <jrib> Ropechoborra: yes
[04:11] <xsg> yeh it gave me thow do i get unrar non free
[04:11] <dsdeiz> anyone? :S
[04:11] <jrib> xsg: it tells you to use "unrar", not "unrar-free"
[04:11] <PCTeacher012> musikgoat: Already tried lol, wont letme :p
[04:11] <jrib> !helpme | dsdeiz
[04:11] <xsg> how th ehell i get unrar
[04:11] <Ropechoborra> jrib, Nothing happends
[04:11] <kandinski> I am loading the rt2500usb driver manually via modprobe, but the connection is not showing on ifconfig or iwconfig, what am I doing wrong?
[04:11] <jrib> xsg: well... how did you get unrar-free?
[04:11] <musikgoat|main> PCTeacher012: right, cause thats bad :-P
[04:11] <xsg> do i have to pay for unrar
[04:11] <musikgoat|main> xsg: no
[04:12] <xsg> o ok then ill get it
[04:12] <hanasaki> what needs to be done to tie authentication into LDAP?
[04:12] <musikgoat|main> !free
[04:12] <ubotouou> PCTeacher012: ok go ahead and install windows and there are ext2/3/4 drivers for windows which can enable you to copy stuff from your linux box, unless you format you linux partitions by mistake
[04:12] <n8tuserf> hanasaki -> authentication of ubuntu?
[04:12] <xsg> will it unrar .rar files from torrents ??????
[04:12] <hanasaki> n8tuserf:  for user login
[04:12] <musikgoat|main> ubotouou: she needs to resize ubuntu to make room for xp
[04:12] <musikgoat|main> *he or she
[04:12] <PCTeacher012> musikgoat & ubotouou: Lol, yep :p i decided this, i downloaded a uncopyrighted DVD, ill just again, my most important files i sent to a friend, this is too much of a hassle LoL
[04:12] <hanasaki> is there a program / tool that will let me setup like a VPS and admin it?
[04:13] <jrib> xsg: a rar file is a rar file.  Doesn't really matter if you obtained it using a torrent
[04:13] <xsg> true lol
[04:13] <n8tuserf> hanasaki -> look into pam modules, those are the mainline configs for user login.. i dont know all the fine details though
[04:13] <xsg> they should have a ubuntu meatup
[04:13] <hanasaki> thanks n8tuserf
[04:13] <digitalexploit> !gnomebaker
[04:13] <ubotouou> PCTeacher012: you can't resize it safely
[04:14] <xsg> ubottu: i love oyu
[04:14] <PCTeacher012> ubotouou: okay, then i just sent my most important files to friend, he'll send back and ill just redownload that uncopyrighted DVD, thanks for help guyz
[04:14] <xsg> i wanna lick your penis
[04:14] <ubotouou> PCTeacher012: do you have ubuntu installed on various paritions or only one?
[04:14] <tgr_> it says this cannot mount volume you are not priveledged to mount the volume Iomega HDD
[04:15] <gentubuntu> Can someone help me?
[04:15] <PCTeacher012> ubotouou: Linux-Swap and ext3, idk why it made Linux-Swap
[04:15] <maxagaz> how to give sudo rights to a user (using a command line) ?
[04:15] <mabes> off topic.. but does anyone know of a good CLI tool for converting video?
[04:15] <tgr_> how do i find the autoscript that automounts the hard drive?
[04:15] <PCTeacher012> maxagaz: visudo
[04:16] <PCTeacher012> follow onscreen prompts and examples
[04:16] <lstarnes> maxagaz: or sudo gpasswd -a username admin
[04:16] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: there is either a user or users option to allow users to mount it... checking
[04:16] <gentubuntu> For one my computer is starting up with Kubuntu loadscreen (I never installed kubuntu and my life) and it is also deleted my theme my panels whent back to grey
[04:16] <ubotouou> PCTeacher012: linux swap basically is like a paging memory that helps your rams, in other words like in windows you get that in your virtual memory from system properties then advanced
[04:16] <kriel> ... ubotouou isn't talking to me via PM. =/ did that stop?
[04:16] <nomasteryoda> cool tip lstarnes
[04:16] <gentubuntu> And there is more can I get some help real real quick
[04:16] <musikgoat|main> kriel: ubotouou is not a bot
[04:16] <kriel> ... oh, wait. ubotouou is a person. Sorry! -tries ubottu- >.<
[04:17] <PCTeacher012> ubotouou: Okay lol, thanks, ill keep that in mind if i install again, all i need is something better than Wine to keep me, because half my programs from windows dont run correctly
[04:17] <PCTeacher012> lol
[04:17] <gentubuntu> Anyone?
[04:17] <breakage> clear
[04:17] <nomasteryoda> !ask
[04:17] <ubotouou> PCTeacher012: you don't need windows softwares or wine at all. there are subistitues that work better under linux than windows. So what type of apps do you usually wannt use?
[04:18] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: users  is the option,  add it at the end before the numbers ( comma after ro   and no space)
[04:18] <OvernightPR> And another question, actually. Anyone know about a way to average read/write to solid state media in Ubuntu so as to preserve drive life?
[04:18] <musikgoat|main> OvernightPR: what do you mean by average?
[04:19] <gentubuntu> OK, this is for anyone, I am having problem adding of deleting or going using add/remove I get this message
[04:19] <gentubuntu> (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[04:19] <PCTeacher012> ubotouou: Programs there is no replace for, photoshop, but gimp doesnt equal, not close, Audition (adobe) but Ardour isnt close, Pivot Hotkeys, nothing close, iTunes, nothing close, sorry :( lol
[04:19] <kriel> Okay, I'm having trouble burning DVD+R DL's. My first issue was that my burner didn't support that format. I've since solved that, but now with the new burner, brasero is saying that it doesn't have the plugins to support it. cdrecord pukes on me. Any help?
[04:19] <aspoor> yea I have restricted .deb's
[04:19] <gentubuntu> Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[04:19] <gentubuntu> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[04:20] <ubotouou> PCTeacher012: it's hard to find something excately like itunes, but gimp is pretty great for me instead of photoshop
[04:20] <gentubuntu> This is the problem I am having anyone help me
[04:20] <OvernightPR> @ muskigoat Well, solid state media dies after about 10k read/write cycles. I thought that I had read about an app that essentially moved the swap (and possibly directories?) around during use to prevent repeated writes to the same sector.
[04:20] <musikgoat|main> OvernightPR: (i believe) every ssd manufacturer uses a layer between the physical media and the OS access,  which randomizes the actual location on the disk that the data is written to, thus preserving life on the flash chip cells
[04:20] <PCTeacher012> ubotouou: I need exact photoshop, Gimp just confuses me
[04:20] <PCTeacher012> lol
[04:20] <Dizzle> can anyone help me to get my themes working correctly?
[04:20] <deco> i just installed ctwm how do i switch to it?
[04:20] <tgr_> so UUID=D27431CF7431B6D7    /media/iomega               ntfs    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1 should be UUID=D27431CF7431B6D7    /media/iomega               ntfs    defaults   errors=remount-ro 0       1
[04:20] <gentubuntu> i got photoshop
[04:20] <gentubuntu> can someone help
[04:20] <musikgoat|main> OvernightPR: ahh, well, i recommend never using swap on ssd anyways
[04:20] <zarattustra> ?
[04:20] <zarattustra> *
[04:20] <ubotouou> PCTeacher012: you just need to learn it, and how will you run all of these gui heavy apps under your old pc?
[04:21] <deco> i just installed ctwm how do i switch to it?
[04:21] <OvernightPR> @ muskigoat Got an Asus EEE PC, so not a whole lot of choice. :D
[04:21] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: UUID=D27431CF7431B6D7    /media/iomega               ntfs    defaults   errors=remount-ro,users 0       1
[04:21] <ubotouou> PCTeacher012: how much ram you have in there?
[04:21] <gentubuntu> I get this message when add/remove plus in the terminal Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[04:21] <gentubuntu> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[04:21] <tgr_> seems like defaults is the option that is modified
[04:21] <PCTeacher012> ubotouou: Dont ask me, but it worked (amazingly) I have 512 MB Ram
[04:21] <musikgoat|main> OvernightPR: so do i, and i installed ubuntu without swap
[04:21] <OvernightPR> @ PCTeacher012 There is GimpShop, which is pretty similar to Photoshop.
[04:21] <tgr_> THANKS!
[04:21] <gentubuntu> plus my loadscreen turned to kubuntu? and my theme is messed up.  Inever used kubuntu before in my life did I get hacked!!
[04:21] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: sorry,  defaults and the rest should not be separated
[04:21] <ubotouou> PCTeacher012: 512 is not that bad i though 128
[04:22] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: UUID=D27431CF7431B6D7    /media/iomega               ntfs    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[04:22] <PCTeacher012> OvernightPR: I Tried, but it is just as confusing as Gimp, Photoshop was just good
[04:22] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: with the ",users"  lol
[04:22] <PCTeacher012> it says 256 on outside, but when i go to system properties in windows, it says 512 lol, @ubotouou
[04:22] <tgr_> there was a comma
[04:22] <tgr_> that threw it off
[04:22] <deco> how does one switch window managers?
[04:22] <OvernightPR> @ Muskigoat: How would I change that after install?   Just 2 mintues back I was listening to some music and suddenly now there is no sound?
[04:24] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: look at dmesg
[04:24] <gentubuntu> there is a website that is good as photoshop
[04:24] <gentubuntu> i forgot the name
[04:24] <TheShahFactor> ubuntu sucks
[04:24] <tgr_> sorry i will try again
[04:24] <aspoor> gimp
[04:25] <PCTeacher012> OvernightPR: I had Paint.NET in windows, it isnt as good as photoshop, and i dont think so
[04:25] <gedinfo> Hello, Anyone know how to obtain the su password?  I do not remember assigning a different password other than the one I use for logging in and for the update manager for Ubuntu 8.10.
[04:25] <musikgoat|main> OvernightPR: Set the 'noatime' or 'relatime' mount options in the /etc/fstab file.  I *was* on bug team and it is STILL sending me Bug Reports!!! D:
[04:25] <Cpudan80> Hello all
[04:25] <OvernightPR> @gentubuntu Sure. but the guys who help out here do so because they enjoy helping people. Grating on their nerves will earn you no favors.
[04:25] <tgr_> [mntent]: line 10 in /etc/fstab is bad mount: can't find /media/iomega in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[04:26] <Cpudan80> I asked this a while ago but nobody had any ideas ... So I have a Dell Studio XPS laptop, I plug my headphones into the headphone jack and sound continues to play from the main laptop speakers
[04:26] <gentubuntu> allright my bad
[04:26] <OvernightPR> @gentubuntu Thou't draw more flies with honey than with vinegar and all that.
[04:26] <Cpudan80> Is there any solution for this?
[04:26] <keres> how do you schedule disk integrity checks?
[04:26] <tgr_> UUID=D27431CF7431B6D7    /media/iomega               ntfs    defaults   errors=remount-ro,users 0       1
[04:26] <tgr_> is what i have
[04:26] <Rave1> gentubuntu,  I would think that you are trying to run two package managers
[04:26] <gentubuntu> i guess i will just take a bat and beat the heck out of my computer office space style
[04:26] <dsdeiz> !info cron
[04:26] <gedinfo> I get an error stating 'dpkg --cofigure -a' needs to be run manually.
[04:26] <keres> tgr_: lol, dontcha just love mounting.
[04:26] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: remember to fix it to this: UUID=D27431CF7431B6D7    /media/iomega               ntfs    defaults,errors=remount-ro,users 0       1
[04:27] <TheShahFactor> digitalexploit :  wont be spending 1k USD on no OS ...What are pirated versions for..But Ubuntu does behave rather randomly at times
[04:27] <OvernightPR> @gentubuntu That will probably make you feel better--briefly. Hang on. :D
[04:27] <gentubuntu> I get this message when I do anything in terminal and plus add remove

[04:27] <tgr_> oh ok
[04:27] <tgr_> sorry i am a bit tired
[04:27] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: i know I got confusing in explaining (i'm getting tired :-P )
[04:27] <deco> how does one swich window manager?
[04:27] <dsdeiz> sudo apt-get clean?
[04:28] <deco> :-(
[04:28] <keres> how do you schedule disk integrity checks on startup? like how every once it in a while it does it automagically
[04:28] <Rave1> gentubuntu,  that is because you are trying to run two packagemanagers
[04:28] <YixilTesiphon> anybody familiar with errors installing asio?
[04:28] <mogul218> is there a way to choose between kde and gnome at login?
[04:28] <gedinfo> Hello, Anyone know how to obtain the su password?  I do not remember assigning a different password other than the one I use for logging in and for the update manager for Ubuntu 8.10.
[04:28] <ubotuouo> keres: you're thinking like windows style hmmm
[04:28] <deco> i think there should be more than one channel for ubuntu
[04:28] <deco> the number of people is amazing lol
[04:28] <Rave1> gedinfo,  same password
[04:29] <ikus060> deco : There is many channel for ubuntu
[04:29] <gentubuntu> How do I know what the two packagmanger are and how do i delete
[04:29] <gedinfo> I get an error stating 'dpkg --cofigure -a' needs to be run manually.
[04:29] <ubotuouo> ketes: you don't need a check everytime you start up
[04:29] <gentubuntu> I don't really know what a package manager is
[04:29] <keres> ubotuouo: no, i run linux mainly. I'm wondering how to do these, as i have always skipped them when they come up. "Routine disk checks" i guess.
[04:29] <gedinfo> su does not accept that password for some reason.
[04:29] <deco> exit
[04:29] <tgr_> it says unprivileged user can not mount ntfs block devices using the external fuse library.  either mount the volume as root, or rebuild ntfs-3g with integrated fue support and make it setuid root. please see more information at http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#unprivileged
[04:29] <gentubuntu> I did that gedinfo do you want me to give you pastebin
[04:29] <Flannel> gentubuntu: Use sudo instead of su.
[04:29] <ubotuouo> gedinfo: single user
[04:29] <Flannel> er, gedinfo.
[04:30] <PCTeacher012> how do i unsubscribe from the stupid lanuchpad email list, i get 1000+ emails a day?
[04:30] <Flannel> gedinfo: Ubuntu doesn't use the root account (it's locked), so su won't work.  Use sudo instead.
[04:30] <Rave1> gentubuntu,  gui way system>admin> system monitor     >proccesses
[04:31] <dsdeiz> is it possible to unlock the root account? :S
[04:31] <keres> how do you _purposely_ start the "Routine disk check"s to check your hard drive for bad sectors and such?
[04:31] <gedinfo> Thank you very much for explaining this. I guess I still was thinking about my old RedHat 6.2 days!
[04:31] <Joker_-_> anyone knows if the TV-tuner card "Vista View Saber" is supported in ubuntu / linux?
[04:31] <Flannel> dsdeiz: It is.  But there's no real reason to do so.
[04:31] <gentubuntu> dpkg: status database area is locked by another process\
[04:31] <Joker_-_> it's damn cheap and has two tuners (one analog, one atsc/qam)
[04:31] <jsh_> 2.6.27 kernels (Jaunty) won't run on my laptop.  2.6.24 kernels work.  Is this a place I can ask for help to get Jaunty up?
[04:31] <Flannel> jsh_: #ubuntu+1 for Jaunty support
[04:31] <PCTeacher012> jsh_:
[04:31] <PCTeacher012> no
[04:31] <PCTeacher012> nevermind
[04:32] <tgr_> so close
[04:32] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: darn, there is one other thing... you have to add your user to have that privilege,  go to system -> admin -> users and groups
[04:32] <jsh_> Flannel: thanks
[04:33] <gentubuntu> Ravel what do I do know that I am in system monitor proccess
[04:33] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: then click unlock, input password, click on your user, then properties, then user privs, then "Mount userspace File systems"
[04:33] <OvernightPR> @PCteacher012 Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/launchpad-users
[04:34] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: all this because you don't want to just simply press the eject button to get it to remount to the same point every time :-P

[04:35] <OvernightPR> @PCTeacher012 They've got a bug in to make it that replying to the email with "Unsubscribe" in the Subject line should unsubscribe you, but I don't know if it's been addressed or not yet.
[04:35] <musikgoat|main> syntax\: i would suggest describing your problem all on one line
[04:35] <ubotuouo> gentubuntu: i've been wondering by the way about how good kubuntu runs?
[04:36] <tgr_> yes
[04:36] <tgr_> i have it

[04:36] <tgr_> i have 8.04
[04:36] <jsh_> Flannel: Sorry, I meant Intrepid.
[04:36] <gentubuntu> Kubuntu look nice and has good programs but I think ubuntu is better so I add theme to ubuntu and just download kubuntu programs
[04:37] <OvernightPR> Heh. didn't honestly expect to be answering anyone *else's* questions tonight. :P
[04:37] <tgr_> do i need libntfs-gnomevfs?
[04:37] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: change the /etc/fstab to ntfs-3g
[04:38] <tgr_> or ntfs-config?
[04:38] <gentubuntu> Can I just reinstall my UBUNTU right over  top of my existing install when I first got it and did not know what I was doing I went into synaptics and downloaded 1,000 things I don't even know what they are
[04:38] <tgr_> under which part?
[04:38] <tgr_> oh i see
[04:38] <ron2010> anybody help me walk through installing virtualbox to install windows xp?
[04:38] <DasEi> gentubuntu: you can..
[04:38] <MHz128> Is there a setting for the "hover" time required to draw a sub-menu from the gnome-panel Menu addon?
[04:38] <tgr_> same error
[04:39] <gentubuntu> Flannel i can find packagemanger just system manager
[04:39] <tgr_> this is what i see here
[04:39] <tgr_> http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#useroption
[04:39] <gentubuntu> Virtualbox you can download from SUN right go to download.com and type virtual box i used on window before and i am stupid
[04:39] <michael_> hello?
[04:40] <gnea> !vbox
[04:40] <OvernightPR> Hm. Anyone know off the top of their heads if Gparted comes with the Canonical Netbook Remix? I can't find it and am feeling quite the dweeb.
[04:40] <michael_> anyone have a quick fix on why I cant see heroes in firefox?
[04:40] <tonyyarusso> OvernightPR: I believe it does not.
[04:40] <arooni> hey folks!  my ubuntu hardy t61 laptop had a little fall today and now fsck fails.  so i booted into recovery mode and ran: fsck /dev/sda1 (root partition).  fsck finished once but i saw a bunch of "buffer i/o error on device sda1, logical block 1507572; error readingblock 150572 (attempting to read block from filesystem resulted in short read) while getting next inode from scan.  ignore error<y> yes;"  and "force rewrite <y>? yes"
[04:40] <arooni>  and finally "ata1: COMRESET failed (errno=-16);  what should i do now?
[04:40] <ron2010> thanks guys
[04:40] <musikgoat|main> OvernightPR: iirc, it is not included in intrepid
[04:40] <gentubuntu> If i put jaunty over my ubuntu will i have to redo when it comes out or does it automatically update
[04:41] <OvernightPR> @michael Because I seem to recall that Hulu won't render in FF.
[04:41] <Tesla> Your hard drive is bad.
[04:41] <musikgoat|main> OvernightPR: but its easily apt-get'able
[04:41] <DasEi> OvernightPR: don't now about netbook, in regular gotta install it yourself
[04:41] <Tesla> You need to replace it and reinstall.
[04:41] <tonyyarusso> gentubuntu: #ubuntu+1 for jaunty quesstions.
[04:41] <gentubuntu> ubuntu on netbook is a special version its called like ubuntu netbook remix
[04:41] <ron2010> also... can is there way to change the color background on windows selector switch?
[04:41] <kriel> Trying to burn DVD+R DL's using updated 8.10. Brasero fails, citing it doesn't have enough plugins. CD/DVD recorder (Nautilus?) fails, not citing an error. wodim fails, citing that "Errno: 5 (Input/output error), reserve track scsi sendcmd: no error"
[04:41] <michael_> @overnight so im screwed?
[04:41] <mrded> эй, бабища, блевани!
[04:41] <gentubuntu> im asking a general ubuntu question not so specifically jaunty
[04:41] <OvernightPR> @Muskigoat, DasEi Thanks. At least I don't feel bad for not finding it, then. :P
[04:42] <tonyyarusso> arooni: reboot and see if you continue to have pproblems or if it seems happier now.
[04:42] <OvernightPR> @michael Screwed is such a negative term. You could possibly install wine and run IE.
[04:42] <mrded> пошли все на хуй!
[04:42] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: if its there, its in admin, called partition editor
[04:42] <musikgoat|main> OvernightPR: ^^
[04:42] <mrded> ?
[04:42] <DasEi> OvernightPR: as musikgoat|main said, sudo apt-get install gparted
[04:42] <arooni> tonyyarusso, same issue;  should i try formatting /dev/sda1 ?
[04:42] <ron2010> how do i change color background for workspace switcher
[04:42] <musikgoat|main> sorry tgr_heh
[04:42] <michael_> hehe sorry
[04:42] <OvernightPR> @Michael Or just watch it on TV.
[04:42] <mrded> ёпт
[04:42] <michael_> lol
[04:42] <gentubuntu> when you have a "beta" version of ubuntu does it update/upgrade byistelf once release of do you have to install it over again on the release date
[04:42] <gnea> !ru | mrded
[04:42] <YixilTesiphon> mrded: this is not a russian channel
[04:42] <michael_> i miss one every now and then
[04:43] <tonyyarusso> arooni: it might work, although I'd be somewhat more inclined to suspect hardware failure in that case.
[04:43] <tonyyarusso> arooni: always worth a try :)
[04:43] <mrded> sorry, ебвашумать
[04:43] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: i guess users option is not allowed
[04:43] <gentubuntu> OK i AM not asking Anymore question WHY I GET THIS min -> users and groups
[04:43] <gentubuntu> * tiw0L has quit (Client Quit)
 Flannel: thanks
[04:43] <gentubuntu> * error404notfound has quit (Success)
[04:43] <gentubuntu> * excess21<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has joined #ubuntu

[04:43] <FloodBot1> gentubuntu: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:43] <JakeTwoZero> ok, I have upgraded to 8.10. I still have a resolution problem.
[04:43] <gentubuntu> OOps i did not even copy all that
[04:43] <YixilTesiphon> JakeTwoZero: ATI?
[04:43] <JakeTwoZero> ?
[04:44] <YixilTesiphon> your graphics card, is it ATI?
[04:44] <tgr_> yep
[04:44] <gentubuntu> I sware
[04:44] <JakeTwoZero> how do I check
[04:44] <tgr_> so do i have to compile a new ntfs-3g tar?
[04:44] <gnea> gentubuntu: gotta be careful of your mouse - it's sensitive :)
[04:44] <YixilTesiphon> lspci
[04:44] <JakeTwoZero> I know it is Nvidia
[04:44] <YixilTesiphon> oh, then it isn't
[04:44] <JakeTwoZero> lol
[04:44] <YixilTesiphon> I know 9.04 works way better for my ATI
[04:44] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: however,  if you sudo nano /etc/fstab    you can uncomment "allow_others"
[04:45] <gentubuntu> how do you stop two packagemanger from running
[04:45] <JakeTwoZero> It is a nvidia geforce 6 series
[04:45] <ron2010> hey guys... is there way to change the background color for workspace switcher?
[04:45] <Tesla> So, how do I burn dual-layer DVD's?
[04:45] <gnea> gentubuntu: 2 can't run together, it's impossible
[04:45] <tgr_> i don't have allow_others
[04:45] <gentubuntu> Well that what everyone is saying I am getting myerror
[04:45] <michael_> is wine pretty easy to use?
[04:45] <gentubuntu> gnea: it says my dpkg is locked everytime i use the terminal or add remove
[04:46] <JakeTwoZero> I got it to 1400x1050 but it needs to be 1680x1050
[04:46] <tonyyarusso> michael_: "it depends".  Some things work easily, others don't.
[04:46] <mrded> нихуя
[04:46] <gentubuntu> gnea: I can do nothing plus my load screen got changed to ubuntu somehow and my theme disapeared
[04:46] <gnea> gentubuntu: right, that's why you can't run more than one. you need to find the original process and take care of it.
[04:46] <Rave1> gentubuntu,  I said the error was caused because you were trying to run two package managers
[04:46] <OvernightPR> @michael Sure you just open the cork and drink it.
[04:46] <michael_> lol
[04:46] <gentubuntu> hmm
[04:46] <tgr_> would this be helpful chown root $(which ntfs-3g)
[04:46] <tgr_>   chmod 4755 $(which ntfs-3g)
[04:46] <gentubuntu> still not sure what to do
[04:46] <michael_> i love the answers on here it it typical for linux users hehe
[04:46] <mrded> Ы = lol
[04:46] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: ok, then i'm all out of ideas... i'm sorry,  mounting by label was jrib's suggestion but i think you will run into the same problems
[04:47] <gentubuntu> no i rebooted my cpu like 10 times still same problem
[04:47] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: sorry
[04:47] <OvernightPR> @michael Oh, the software? It isn't too bad. What are you running?
[04:47] <gnea> !english
[04:47] <michael_> ubuntu 8.1
[04:47] <cajun> so i have run Jaunty live the past couple of days from a usb drive and liked it and had few problems with it.  is is ok to upgrade? i'm really getting tired of iitrepid locking up frequently
[04:47] <musikgoat|main> cajun: ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:47] <gnea> !jaunty
[04:47] <cajun> ok.  thanks
[04:47] <ron2010> help with color change in workspace switcher
[04:47] <DasEi> cajun : what will you use it for ?
[04:48] <michael_> i want to run the IE like you said
[04:48] <tgr_> chown root.ntfsuser $(which ntfs-3g)
[04:48] <tgr_>   chmod 4750 $(which ntfs-3g)
[04:48] <tgr_> do i have to upgrade to see the mount options in users?
[04:48] <gnea> tgr_: stop
[04:48] <Kplus> Can anyone tell me how to stream audio over xvnc4viewer as well as how to resize the resolution of the remote computer to fit my eee pc screen? Both computers are ubuntu.
[04:48] <cajun> just as my basic OS right now.  Grad student doing school work basically
[04:48] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: listen to gnea
[04:48] <cajun> i have to do a lot of online research also.  so a working FF and a working Office Suite are essential.
[04:49] <cajun> i do like AWN and Compiz so I have those running also.
[04:49] <tgr_> any ideas then?
[04:49] <gnea> tgr_: just:  sudo ntfs-3g <options>
[04:49] <gentubuntu> Could my problem because I installed a KDE termianl emulator
[04:49] <DasEi> !who | cajun
[04:49] <OvernightPR> Woops. Not what I meant to do
[04:49] <Spamicles> im trying to boot up a virtual pc running the latest version of ubuntu. it won't boot and i get all of these messages: [    0.104006]  [c04ad93d] start_kernel+0x303/0x37f and a lot of other messages that look similar and finally [0.104006] ---[ end trace 4eaa2a... ]--- . did i unknowingly break something?
[04:49] <mrded> hello! how can i install backtrack 3 to my flashdrive?
[04:49] <tuxFan> so whats this channel for ? what topic?
[04:49] <gnea> !ubuntu | tuxFan
[04:49] <musikgoat|main> !ot | mrded
[04:49] <clearscreen> cajun: I have no problems what so ever with running 9.04, but I cant really say I had any problems with 8.10 either... If you have the time, it is worth at least TRYING the upgrade, you can always backup your home folder
[04:49] <michael_> i hit accept
[04:49] <gentubuntu> gnea:  Ravel:  I keep getting this message too this might be the problem but I cant get rid of it can you look at the pastebin :   http://paste2.org/p/179079
[04:50] <gnea> gentubuntu: have you tried rebooting?
[04:50] <mrded> BT founded on ubuntu/debian
[04:50] <tonyyarusso> tuxFan: IRC channels all have a topic that is listed when you join, and accessible again by typing /topic
[04:50] <musikgoat|main> !bt | mrded
[04:50] <gentubuntu> Yes three hundred and 40 times
[04:50] <mrded> !backtrack
[04:50] <OvernightPR> @ michael http://paste.ubuntu.com/145922/
[04:50] <DasEi> cajun : UI found no major probs with the beta/alpha  jaunty, though I#d recommend you to backup your data-files in a sepaate location location in case of probs
[04:50] <cajun> !tab clearscreen if i backup my home folder, can i replace a new install with that one with no problems?
[04:50] <tgr_> can i compile and install an updated ntfs-3g driver?
[04:50] <OvernightPR> That should get you on your way.
[04:50] <gnea> gentubuntu: okay, it tells you how to solve the problem
[04:50] <musikgoat|main> mrded: they should have their own channel, check in #backtrack
[04:51] <mrded> ok
[04:51] <OvernightPR> @ michael Sorry it took so long. My little keyboard can be slow to type on. :P
[04:51] <gnea> gentubuntu: that's it? maybe the 341st try will do it...
[04:51] <gentubuntu> i don't know if that is the only problem but when i type what it says it says wrong command or something
[04:51] <clearscreen> cajun: I haven't had any problems restoring it, but there is a small chance that configuration files change in newer versions
[04:51] <gentubuntu> gnea: what exactly should i tyhpe
[04:51] <clearscreen> cajun: with emphasis on *small*
[04:51] <michael_> np thanks alot
[04:51] <tuxFan> well jaunty its ubuntu rigth?
[04:51] <jsh__> When I try to run 2.6.27 kernels on my laptop, I get tossed into Busybox
[04:51] <clearscreen> !jaunty | tuxFan
[04:52] <musikgoat|main> tgr_: i don't think thats your problem, but i'm out of ideas,  you could write up what you've done in a forum post, or someone here can help you if you paste the error into a pastebin with your /etc/fstab
[04:52] <gnea> gentubuntu: well, it's telling you to open a web browser, go to that URL, download the documentation compressed file, copy it to /tmp, and try running the install again
[04:52] <cajun> clearscreen: well i would've gone back to intrepid anyway till the official release of jaunty.
[04:52] <Burntresistor> this may sound dumb but when i install new stuff its not easy and fast to find or atleast i dunno yet  does unbuntu have a  programs folder  equilibration like windows
[04:52] <jsh__> (That's Intrepid Ibex.)
[04:52] <Burntresistor> equivilent
[04:52] <tgr_> if i compile a new stable version do i have to restart my computer to see if it works?
[04:52] <Stupendoussteve> Burntresistor: Kind of. Most end up in /usr/bin
[04:52] <clearscreen> Burntresistor: synaptic / aptitude
[04:52] <cajun> i can't figure out why intrepid locks up like it does.  in the past hour it's probably locked up 3 or 4 times.
[04:52] <gnea> gentubuntu: of course, you'll need to:  sudo chown root.root /tmp/jdk-1_5_0-doc.zip  before trying the install again
[04:52] <gentubuntu> gnea: Can I just delete the stupid thing I am not that good at installing thing you dowload off the web unless i use apt=get
[04:52] <Stupendoussteve> Burntresistor: But as clearscreen pointed out, a good package manager will show you what's installed
[04:53] <musikgoat|main> Burntresistor: there is whats called the $PATH  which is where all binaries are checked
[04:53] <OvernightPR> @Burntresistor Heh. I'm hunting around for my install of Gparted, so I can sympathize.
[04:53] <tonyyarusso> Burntresistor: A) check the Applications menu, B) binaries in /usr/bin most of the time, C) 'dpkg -L packagename' will show you all installed files fro ma particular package.
[04:53] <gnea> gentubuntu: you'll never learn how to do it right if you don't bother trying.
[04:53] <gentubuntu> sudo chown I have no idea what that even mean
[04:53] <DasEi> Burntresistor: they store in /usr  and subfolders mostly, you can find them by find or locate ( do sudo updatedb before)
[04:53] <musikgoat|main> gentubuntu: man chown
[04:53] <gentubuntu> are u sure its chown
[04:53] <tgr_> or should i use something like mount -t ntfs-3g uuid /media/iomega
[04:53] <gnea> gentubuntu: yes.
[04:54] <Tesla> Hey, can someone make me a sandwich?
[04:54] <musikgoat|main> oh, thats original Tesla
[04:54] <clearscreen> Tesla: wont work with sudo either
[04:54] <musikgoat|main> loads of people here read xkcd
[04:54] <Spamicles> im running the latest version of ubuntu. it won't boot and i get all of these messages: [    0.104006]  [c04ad93d] start_kernel+0x303/0x37f and a lot of other messages that look similar and finally [0.104006] ---[ end trace 4eaa2a... ]--- . did i unknowingly break something?
[04:54] <Chowder> Tesla, get a girlfriend to make your sandwiches
[04:54] <musikgoat|main> :-P
[04:54] <Gnea> gentubuntu: are you familiar with the 'man' command?
[04:54] <Fezzler> firefox crashes on youtube video
[04:54] <tgr_> do i have to uninstall the previous version of ntfs-3g first?
[04:55] <Fezzler> shuts down
[04:55] <syntax\> does the minimal installation process really eats alot of time?
[04:55] <Tesla> I was gonna do #include <whatever> int main() {while(1){fork()}} if nobody made me a sandwich.
[04:55] <brad_> they should have made it the woman command instead of the man command... they're better at telling you what to do.
[04:55] <Tesla> Chowder: I am female, and pretty straight thank you.
[04:55] <Fezzler> Intrepid & ff 3.01
[04:55] <tgr_> or can i just do configure make make install (as root)
[04:55] <ubotuouo> Chowder: you guys are the ones who should make sandwitches for us
[04:55] <gentubuntu> Gnea: this is the msg im getting in the terminal and add/remove
[04:55] <gentubuntu> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[04:55] <gentubuntu> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[04:55] <Tesla> ubotuouo: Agreed.
[04:55] <Gnea> Tesla: most people don't ask for someone to make food in here :)
[04:55] <DasEi> Tesla: nice, saw :
[04:55] <DasEi> !ot
[04:55] <syntax\> initially i froze @ 6% in Select and Install Software. then it moved forward now I somehow freezed @ 90%
[04:55] <musikgoat|main> Tesla: thats not funny
[04:56] <Gnea> gentubuntu: okay, can you pastebin the output of this command please:  ps axf
[04:56] <tgr_> shouldn't i just have to change rights to /media/iomega for user?
[04:56] <Tesla> Meh, that wouldn't compile anyway.
[04:56] <Tesla> I forgot the ; after fork().
[04:56] <clearscreen> missed a semicolon
[04:56] <clearscreen> ;>
[04:56] <Chowder> Tesla, sorry, thought you were a dude cause of the nick.
[04:57] <Tesla> Now, if I could load myself as a kernel module and write to a memory address specified by /dev/urandom, WITH the contents of /dev/urandom...
[04:57] <Chowder> also, I can prepare much tastier things than a mere sandwich
[04:57] <Gnea> Tesla: that's nasty
[04:58] <gemclip> i need a better chat client lol
[04:58] <Gnea> gemclip: what are you using now?

[04:58] <Burntresistor> what is the command to open a program with terminal
[04:58] <gemclip> xchat
[04:58] <Stupendoussteve> Burntresistor: You just type the command
[04:59] <Gnea> gemclip: are you looking for a gui or non-gui client?
[04:59] <Tesla> irssi?
[04:59] <alone> 大家好
[04:59] <gemclip> gui plz im new to liniux i need the gui atm
[04:59]  * Gnea wonders about some people's mental state sometimes
[04:59] <Stupendoussteve> gemclip: xchat is a good gui client

[05:00] <SpenceKid> hey guys, how do i install/access compz fusion?
[05:00]  * Tesla gets a better idea, decides to go grab some hotbits to overwrite the memory with.
[05:01] <Stupendoussteve> Spamicles: compiz should be installed already, apt-get install ccsm for the manager
[05:01] <gentubuntu> spence kid go to add . remove
[05:01] <omniter> hey guys, if i downloaded a program that doesn't need installing, where would i put it?
[05:01] <Stupendoussteve> SpenceKid: To you, instead of him, you want compizconfig-settings-manager
[05:01] <Spamicles> Stupendoussteve, when i turn on the system i get that message and cant enter anything into the console
[05:01] <Stupendoussteve> SpenceKid: compiz is installed by default

[05:01] <Gnea> !compiz | SpenceKid

[05:02] <Tesla> It's a waste.
[05:02] <omniter> musikgoat|main, i can't create new folders in those directories though :S
[05:03] <Stupendoussteve> Tesla: See if synaptic will let you :)
[05:03] <musikgoat|main> omniter: only binaries go in those directories, what are you trying to install?
[05:03] <Gnea> Tesla: i just tell the system not to use it :)
[05:03] <Stupendoussteve> Tesla: You can disable it through the appearance menu of course
[05:03] <omniter> musikgoat|main, blender 2.48
[05:04]  * Tesla is running Ubunu on an EeePC.
[05:04]  * Tesla cries.
[05:04] <Stupendoussteve> Why cry? I run it on an MSI Wind
[05:04] <musikgoat|main> omniter: so you don't want to install ubuntu's package?
[05:04] <Stupendoussteve> Same thing, more or less
[05:04]  * Gnea looks oddly at Tesla
[05:04] <Tesla> Because it can't handle Youtube without crying itself.
[05:04] <gemclip> vmware on a windoz system
[05:04] <Stupendoussteve> Blame the flash
[05:05] <gentubuntu> How come WINE does not show anywindow folder exceot a couple which ahve no files in it
[05:05] <gentubuntu> is it because im running amd64
[05:05] <Gnea> Tesla: are you running regular ubuntu or the eeepc version of ubuntu?
[05:05] <musikgoat|main> yeah, the flash support is rediculously bad, blame SUn
[05:05] <Tesla> Regular.
[05:05] <Stupendoussteve> Sun doesn't make flash...
[05:05] <Chowder> gentubuntu, just edit the menus
[05:05] <gentubuntu> you can get flash for linux www.adob.e.com
[05:05] <omniter> musikgoat, that's because the ubuntu's package is 2.46
[05:05] <Tesla> Because the EeePC version isn't actually well, legit.
[05:05] <gentubuntu> i did
[05:05] <Stupendoussteve> gentubuntu: flash for linux is in the repos
[05:05] <musikgoat|main> Stupendoussteve: oops
[05:05] <Stupendoussteve> maybe the medibuntu one, didn't pay attention which one
[05:06] <Burntresistor> whats the command to see what programs are running in the background is it still control alt del
[05:06] <musikgoat|main> one of those big faceless companies :-P
[05:06] <gentubuntu> i don't think wine work on amd64 or either toshiba laptops
[05:06] <Tesla> So, any packages I can safely kill without crippling functionality and improving performance?
[05:06] <gentubuntu> they only thing it sees is crappy IE and it wont even load that
[05:06] <Stupendoussteve> gentubuntu: What do you expect it to see? Did you install something within wine?
[05:07] <Burntresistor> why wont wine work on amd64 it installed fine i havnt tried it yet but to start up an ap
[05:07] <musikgoat|main> Burntresistor: you should get that windows command out of your head, there is a process list in system -> admin -> system monitor though
[05:07] <Burntresistor> lol do you know how many years of windows commands are in my head it might take awhile
[05:08] <musikgoat|main> Burntresistor: or i should say, the windows-butchered command...
[05:08] <brad_> I installed pocket ubuntu today... it worked pretty well.  I need a faster machine at work though (or at least more memory)
[05:08] <gentubuntu> Wine will not SEE my C directory except for my window folder but even that it show it up all empty
[05:09] <gentubuntu> can i just download exe folder straight to ubuntu and use wine to install them instread
[05:09] <Stupendoussteve> gentubuntu: That's how wine is meant to work...
[05:09] <deagle> hello all
[05:09] <Burntresistor> isnt there a wine room
[05:09] <musikgoat|main> gentubuntu: wine does not use the c directory that you may already have,  it creates a virtual c directory
[05:09] <SpenceKid> where is compiz fusion, shouldnt it be under system -> preferences?
[05:09] <deagle> is anyone else having issues viewing youtube videos right from firefox?
[05:10] <deagle> Burntresistor: #winehq
[05:10] <OvernightPR> @ Tesla Also Running Ubuntu on an EEE PC.
[05:10] <Stupendoussteve> SpenceKid: By default there isn't one, you have to install ccsm if you want to use it
[05:10] <Gnea> gentubuntu: interesting things you've got going on there... any results from this command?  sudo fuser /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[05:10] <gentubuntu> yeah, and when I got into the visual directoy there is nothing but windows folder, and nothing is in there]
[05:10] <DasEi> gentubuntu:either rightclick the *.exe > opem with > wine  or in trml : (sudo) wine *.exe
[05:10] <OvernightPR> @ Tesla I wouldn't call it fast, but it's not like I can type quickly on the little keyboard anyway.
[05:10] <SpenceKid> can you guide me to do that?
[05:10] <SpenceKid> please
[05:10] <Stupendoussteve> gentubuntu: Again, that is the wine c drive, not your windows install
[05:10] <Stupendoussteve> SpenceKid: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[05:11] <gentubuntu> so, you only supposed to use it download thing to the virtual c drive it dont show yuour real c drive3
[05:11] <gentubuntu> Gnea: you want me to sudo fuser var/lib/dpkg/lock
[05:11] <Stupendoussteve> gentubuntu: You can download installers to the ubuntu desktop and run from there, to install within wine
[05:11] <musikgoat|main> gentubuntu: no, it doesn't
[05:11] <Gnea> Tesla: uhm, the Ubuntu-EEEpc isn't a non-legit thing, but you can get help for it in #ubuntu-eeepc
[05:11] <deagle> so i'm the only one who can't see a flash video from youtube's site?
[05:11] <Tesla> Oh god.
[05:11] <Burntresistor> so is gaming still possible on linux with a direct x work around
[05:11] <Tesla> Nonono.
[05:11] <Gnea> gentubuntu: yes.
[05:12] <Tesla> Oh.
[05:12] <Tesla> Wait.
[05:12] <Tesla> Yes.
[05:12] <FloodBot1> Tesla: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:12] <Tesla> Wait.
[05:12] <Stupendoussteve> Burntresistor: Sometimes
[05:12] <OvernightPR> @ deagle that a fresh install.
[05:12]  * Gnea looks oddly at Tesla again
[05:12] <deagle> OvernightPR: nope
[05:12] <Stupendoussteve> !flood | Tesla
[05:12] <Tesla> Okay, I seem to remember Canonical saber-rattling at the people who made that distro for using the Ubuntu name.
[05:12] <Stupendoussteve> Hmm. I could swear it used to say enter was not a punctuation key
[05:12] <OvernightPR> @Tesla Yeah. It's now Easy Peasey.
[05:12] <SpenceKid> Stupendoussteve: thanks, worked great!
[05:12] <musikgoat|main> Tesla: that is the eeebuntu people
[05:13] <Stupendoussteve> SpenceKid: You're welcome and congrats :)

[05:13] <ndshacker> my internet is horridly slow and i get this error: Your forward and reverse DNS don't match when joining irc... what can i do to fix this?
[05:13] <Gnea> Tesla: I do believe, that it's possible, that you misinterpretted something, somewhere...things like that do happen, and usually good things result from it, not bad things
[05:13] <ndshacker> its a 1400 ms ping to google
[05:13] <musikgoat|main> OvernightPR: no, i'm sure they are not the only ones,  ubuntu is trademarked, and by law they have to fight infringement
[05:13] <OvernightPR> @deagle have you surfed on Youtube successfully before?
[05:14] <KL87> hey i cant seem to change my resolution to 1024x728 its stuck at a really low resolution
[05:14] <Stupendoussteve> ndshacker: Unless you own the IP address you can't really do anything to fix it, that's an ISP issue
[05:14]  * Tesla is really confused right now, not on any particular topic, just generally confused,  ಠ_ಠ
[05:14] <KL87> how do i fix that
[05:14] <ganesh> will it resume if ubuntu download interrupted inbetween?
[05:14] <Gnea> !resolution | KL87

[05:14] <Gnea> gentubuntu: it's /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[05:14] <Stupendoussteve> ndshacker: Probably your ISP messed up their dns server, it's not really a big deal
[05:14] <ndshacker> it taked like a minute in between pages
[05:15] <deagle> OvernightPR: hell, even other sites like google video show up fine
[05:15] <Gnea> gentubuntu: always need the first /
[05:15] <Tesla> Gnea: Not recently...
[05:15] <ndshacker> *takes
[05:15] <Stupendoussteve> ndshacker: The rdns thing is, the net connection is their issue too though
[05:15] <Stupendoussteve> ndshacker: or most likely their issue
[05:15] <ndshacker> so um.. what do i do?
[05:15] <niriven> with the new 9.04, i cannot move my panels, or set my root password, why is this?
[05:15] <Gnea> niriven: you need to ask in #ubuntu+1 about that
[05:15] <niriven> Gnea, ok thanks
[05:15] <Burntresistor> i understand the philosophy of what linux is trying to do but does linux ever want to replace windows witha free open source solution or will it always get second rate treatment to windows market dominance
[05:16] <gentubuntu> Gnea:  Cannot stat var/lib/dpkg/lock: N
[05:16] <vexic_> Hi, I had a question about configuring LAMP, if anyone has a second.
[05:16] <OvernightPR> @deagle And you've installed nothing new recently?
[05:16] <gentubuntu> opps
[05:16] <Gnea> gentubuntu: AGAIN:   sudo fuser /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[05:16] <gentubuntu> Gnea: /var/lib/dpkg/lock:   5379
[05:16] <Stupendoussteve> ndshacker: Call your ISP and complain, they'll probably have some guy in another country answer the phone and try to run you through a script for Windows that won't fix the issue
[05:16] <Gnea> gentubuntu: alright...
[05:16] <musikgoat|main> Burntresistor: if you truly understand the philosophy, then you would know that your question is a non-question
[05:16] <Tesla> Burntresistor: Let's give Richard Stallman an RPG and find out.
[05:16] <syntax\> does anyone here have an idea on what are the packages that are included in ubuntu-desktop?
[05:16] <gentubuntu> 5379
[05:17] <Stupendoussteve> syntax\: A ton of them...
[05:17] <deagle> OvernightPR: as a matter of fact, I can watch youtube videos from google videos (as embedded) but on youtube.com all I get is a black square that when I right click it says "movie not loaded..." and then "Adobe Flash Player 10" below it
[05:17] <Gnea> gentubuntu: alright, you've got a terminal window open, somewhere, that is waiting for you to finish what it asked you to do.
[05:17] <musikgoat|main> !info ubuntu-desktop
[05:17] <ndshacker> stupendesssteve: noone lese seems to notic it
[05:17] <syntax\> Stupendoussteve: do you know how to install a minimal gnome desktop?
[05:17] <ndshacker> *notice it
[05:17] <Gnea> gentubuntu: and if not, then the process became a zombie
[05:18] <gentubuntu> Gnea: finish what that is the only msg i got /var/lib/dpkg/lock:   5379
[05:18] <musikgoat|main> ohh, i was hoping that gave more information
[05:18] <Stupendoussteve> syntax\: Take the ubuntu-desktop, open synaptic and view all installed packages, and start pruning
[05:18] <Stupendoussteve> syntax\: That's an easier way to do it
[05:18] <OvernightPR> @deagle Call an old priest and a young priest? ;)
[05:18] <gentubuntu> But yeah the terminal window is open
[05:18] <Gnea> gentubuntu: right, that tells you the PID of the program that's got it in use:   ps axf | grep 5379
[05:18] <deagle> OvernightPR: huh? o_O?
[05:19] <Gnea> gentubuntu: okay, then you need to follow directions to 'quit'
[05:19] <thismamacooks200> opengl is nolonger working on my system. most ogl apps return the following: Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"

[05:19] <OvernightPR> @deagle That's a reference to"the excorcist".
[05:19] <ndshacker> desei: thorugh a 2wire router
[05:19] <deagle> ah
[05:19] <sensae> I installed the madwifi package in hardware drivers, and restarted. It seems to have made my wifi problem worse, but when I open hardware drivers it isn't listed so I can't uninstall it.
[05:19] <OvernightPR> @deagle What version of flash player you have?
[05:19] <ndshacker> I applied the tcp things though, so that shouldnt be the issue
[05:19] <Gnea> Tesla: I'm sorry, I don't know how to solve your general confusion... have you considered professional counseling?
[05:19] <DasEi> ndshacker: that offers dhcp and acts as gateway ?
[05:19] <OvernightPR> (the answer will, of course, be 10)
[05:20] <OvernightPR> (but I like to ask)
[05:20] <ndshacker> Daesi: yes, i believe so
[05:20] <deagle> OvernightPR: lol.
[05:20] <Tesla> Gnea: Let's smash some pots and pans, see if  that heps.
[05:20] <DasEi> ndshacker: check your /etc/resolv.conf then
[05:20] <ndshacker> um... ok?
[05:20] <Gnea> Tesla: that's always fun
[05:20] <ndshacker> what am I looking for?

[05:34] <usser> tgr, what does it say?
[05:34] <tgr> there is no ok option it is just greay
[05:34] <usser> tgr, add /media as a shared folder
[05:34] <DasEi> ndshacker: install traceroute, and do a netstat for checking if sth. is consuming bandwith
[05:35] <ndshacker> umm... what?
[05:35] <ndshacker> sth?
[05:35] <DasEi> ndshacker: something

[05:38] <Aerodynamic> Just gathering opinion: what is your browser of choice?
[05:38] <OvernightPR> @Street_Physicist I imagine you want a more specialized forum than the general #ubuntu for a question like that.
[05:38] <Aerodynamic> FireFox runs dreadfully slow on my Ubuntu.
[05:39] <xenosynn> 안녕하세요
[05:39] <OvernightPR> Deagle: and, as mentioned, run Opera if you must.
[05:39] <tgr> what do you guys recommend i do before i upgrade to 9.04? are there any file organizers that you guys use? i have loads of info
[05:39] <anthony1> Anyone available for a networking question?
[05:39] <xenosynn> 한글로 대화 하실분은 안계신가요..
[05:40] <clearscreen> !ask | anthony1
[05:40] <clearscreen> !cn | xenosynn
[05:40] <anthony1> Thank you
[05:40] <Stupendoussteve> tgr: Make a backup first, maybe a list of your installed apps too in case something blows up
[05:40] <syntax\> should i be able to see an ntfs partition via "df -h" even if the partition is not mounted? if yes, i can't to see the other ntfs partition.
[05:40] <ndshacker> anyone know how I cna monitor whos taking what of my bandwith?
[05:40] <tgr> how do i copy and reinstall a virtualbox vm img?
[05:40] <ndshacker> i have a dad who likes to torrent
[05:41] <ndshacker> and i fear tha tthat is why my internet is horrid
[05:41] <syntax\> hehe
[05:41] <clearscreen> have a talk with him :)
[05:41] <ndshacker> :(
[05:41] <ndshacker> i have
[05:41] <syntax\> clearscreen yoohoo :D
[05:41] <ndshacker> he pays for the internet though
[05:41] <OvernightPR> Anthony1: Try #ubuntu-server ?
[05:41] <syntax\> ndshacker lol bear with it :P
[05:42] <anthony1> Overnight, this is for Ubuntu Desktop 8.04.2
[05:42] <syntax\> he's the one paying :)
[05:42] <clearscreen> ndshacker: have him limit his upload, it wont hurt his download speed and will likely improve your connection
[05:42] <ndshacker> um... its his download im worried aout
[05:42] <ndshacker> *about
[05:42] <dr-rice> are there programs for ubuntu kid friendly
[05:42] <ndshacker> unless upload matters to?
[05:42] <syntax\> anyone? be able to attend to my concern?
[05:43] <Aerodynamic> or4n, does anyone know any methods to make FF faster on Ubuntu?
[05:43] <Aerodynamic> .. sorry or4n
[05:43] <Aerodynamic> XChat seemed to just tab
[05:43] <OvernightPR> anthony1: they may have a trick or two to share anyway. :D
[05:43] <Aerodynamic> -_o
[05:43] <OvernightPR> dr-rice: look into edubuntu.
[05:43] <ndshacker> because we only have 100 upload
[05:43] <dr-rice> i was thinking build my nahbors kid a computer
[05:43] <ndshacker> and considering its an isp, that means like 80
[05:44] <ndshacker> im gonna kill his torrents when he goes to sleep >.<
[05:44] <clearscreen> ndshacker: usually connectivity problems arise when the full capacity of upload speed is being utilized
[05:45] <Gnea> gentubuntu: it says to click on 'no' and press enter to stop it
[05:45] <ndshacker> clearscreen: so i can just sneak in and apply a upload limit?
[05:45] <Gnea> gentubuntu: pardon?
[05:45] <usser> Aerodynamic, compile it from source
[05:45] <ndshacker> and hell never knw since im the one who showed him how to do it
[05:45] <clearscreen> ndshacker: I would discuss it with your father, but yes, that would likely solve your problem
[05:45] <syntax\> should i be able to see an ntfs partition via "df -h" even if the partition is not mounted? if yes, i can't to see the ntfs partition.
[05:45] <DasEi> ndshacker: check speedmeter at 2 wire for that possib.
[05:45] <Aerodynamic> I'm extremely new, what would that specifically mean.
[05:45] <Aerodynamic> x_X
[05:46] <clearscreen> syntax\: no, you shouldnt
[05:46] <OvernightPR> One last question before I go to bed here; if I delete my linux swap partition with Gparted, there any chance of me borking my install? It took something like 6 hours to install it, and I am leery of going through it again.
[05:46] <ndshacker> ok
[05:46] <syntax\> i should mount it 1st then id be able to see it right?
[05:46] <Gnea> gentubuntu: er, type 'no' and press enter
[05:46] <clearscreen> syntax\: if you just want to see it, run sudo fdisk -l
[05:46] <RORgasm> hey guys i'm using xchat in ubuntu
[05:47] <RORgasm> anyone know how to export chats with a person (private chats) and save them to your disk?
[05:47] <tgr> how do i create a basic firewall that automatically starts when my computer boots
[05:47] <jebatamandua> oi
[05:47] <jebatamandua> alguem ai
[05:47] <jebatamandua> hellow
[05:47] <clearscreen> !es | jebatamandua
[05:47] <clearscreen> !pt jebatamandua
[05:48] <jebatamandua> hi
[05:48] <vladimir_> So I installed Xubuntu, and I'm having a sound problem... I'm not getting any.  I do however have the little volume controll icon on the panel, so it seems like it would have gotten the sound driver installed.  I don't hear any startup noises when I boot up either, so it doesn't seem like it'd be a program specific thing either...
[05:48] <jebatamandua> where are you from?
[05:48] <tgr> and how do i install a compiz or beryl theme for gnome from gnome-look i haven't found a guide on it
[05:48] <clearscreen> !pt | jebatamandua
[05:48] <DasEi> ndshacker: http://www.2wire.com/bandwith
[05:48] <jebatamandua> portuguese
[05:48] <ndshacker> im checking lol
[05:48] <Aerodynamic> RORgasm, right click the person in the tree or tab bar and select log to disk
[05:48] <ndshacker> 142.80kbps
[05:48] <OvernightPR> vladmir: my install of Linux came with all of the sound turned off. Have you opened volume control proper?
[05:48] <jebatamandua> Ubottu, its a portuguese, not spanish
[05:48] <ndshacker> No way im getting that much
[05:48] <clearscreen> !pt | jebatamandua
[05:49] <Aerodynamic> open up preferences and -> Chatting -> Logging -> Open Data Folder
[05:49] <Aerodynamic> should allow you to view your logs
[05:49] <RORgasm> Aerodynamic, ok so that is a checkbox...where does it get saved then
[05:49] <RORgasm> ah
[05:49] <RORgasm> ok
[05:49] <ndshacker> 142.80kbps <---- so why is ubuntu refusing to use this much?
[05:49] <RORgasm> will check it out
[05:49] <FloodBot1> RORgasm: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:49] <jebatamandua> i from brasil, and my official languague its a portuguese
[05:49] <DasEi> ndshacker: sure it was 1400 and not 1.4 from google ?
[05:49] <jebatamandua> not a spanish
[05:49] <ndshacker> it was 1400
[05:49] <usser> Aerodynamic, sudo apt-get build-dep firefox
[05:49] <jebatamandua> Eu vou é embora daqui.
[05:49] <tgr> if i have firefox running and start virtualbox i don't hear any sound anyone else have this issue?
[05:49] <ndshacker> and my firefox is lsow as :@
[05:49] <clearscreen> !pt | jebatamandua
[05:49] <Aerodynamic> Same here ndshacker
[05:50] <Aerodynamic> Alright usser, will try it out
[05:50] <clearscreen> jebatamandua: just join #ubuntu-br
[05:50] <usser> Aerodynamic, get the source from mozilla.org
[05:50] <usser> Aerodynamic, sudo apt-get install checkinstall
[05:50] <ndshacker> my network meeter shows me using like 0% of my network, why wont it use 100%?
[05:50] <jebatamandua> tanks
[05:50] <Botux> hi all
[05:50] <BigMoopies> does anyone know anything like Sizeme in windows? It will allow you to drag folders/files to it and it will make an ISO for you for however many DVDs or CDs it will take to burn them to a CD/DVD.
[05:50] <usser> Aerodynamic, untar the source, go through usual ./configure &&  make install only instead of make install use checkinstall
[05:51] <vladimir_> OvernightPR : Well, the master isn't muted, I also unmuted the pc speaker option.  Still no sound.  Maybe I should restart a program to try again though?
[05:51] <Aerodynamic> Hmm, okay.
[05:51] <kristian42> I accidentally bought and ATI graphics card and installed the restricted drivers. 1 hour later I took it back to the shop and got an nvidia instead. I tried running dpkg-reconfigure of xserver-xorg, but it seems like it's trying to start X in a wacky screen mode. Any tips ?
[05:51] <RORgasm> Aerodynamic, ok so that will enable future cahts with that person to be logged...but the thing is when i open the private dialog box with that person....there is a history of everything we've talked about thus far...how do i log that stuff in the past?
[05:51] <usser> Aerodynamic, that will compile firefox and create a package that will install just like any other package. name it something else when checkinstall prompts you, like firefox-manual-build. otherwise ubuntu will try to upgrade it
[05:51] <Botux> i am trying to install ubuntu 8.10 and am out of cds so i can either use netboot or install 7.04 and upgrade which do you think im better off trying?
[05:51] <jebatamandua>
[05:51] <jebatamandua> Brazil has some of the person there to help me?
[05:51] <usser> Botux, usb-boot
[05:52] <OvernightPR> Vladmir: My install had something called "Front" speakers with the volume all the way down, althought not muted, but the end result was no sound. You got somethiing like that?
[05:52] <Botux> i dont have a usb drive
[05:52] <clearscreen> jebatamandua: maybe.
[05:52] <jebatamandua> is because my ubuntu is in Portuguese.
[05:52] <tgr> well thanks for help before got to go
[05:52] <OvernightPR> Botux netboot is excruciatingly slow.
[05:52] <usser> Botux, netinstall may be a bit harder to do, but it'll be a clean install. 7.04 -> 8.10 upgrade may be easier but theres a chance it blows up in your face
[05:53] <uberg00n> ndshacker your network is probably 54mpbs or 100mbps depending on wireless, or wired... highspeed internet is only like 1/10 of those now adays.. unless you're maxing out your connection you're not going to see huge %'s
[05:53] <Stupendoussteve> !pt | jebatamandua
[05:53] <OvernightPR> Usser so it's six of one and a half dozen of the other :P
[05:53] <usser> OvernightPR, eh? care to substantiate your claim, netboot is fast
[05:53] <ndshacker> ok, but why is my computer still slow as &536
[05:53] <Botux> i have a 7.04 retailcd ubuntu sent me thats why i was thinking that route
[05:53] <vladimir_> OvernightPR : I unmuted everything for the sake of argument.  Still no sound.  To add to the strangeness, when I installed regular Ubuntu, I got sound just fine.
[05:53] <Stupendoussteve> jebatamandua: You don't have to go there, of course, but if English is difficult it may be easier for you
[05:53] <usser> OvernightPR, over local network, it goes faster than cd install :)
[05:54] <jebatamandua> tanks ubottu
[05:54] <Aerodynamic> RORgasm, can you elaborate a bit.
[05:54] <Botux> i tried reading the netinstall stuff and got confused
[05:54] <Aerodynamic> I'm not quite understanding what you mean.
[05:54] <MrPocketz> is there a mem-delete or memory delete tool for Ubuntu?
[05:54] <DasEi> ndshacker: I'm now star poking around; from your replies I assume you're in us on 2wire, so the internet-speedmeter shall be suitable, I don't know the config of your local network or if the router itself offers shaping
[05:54] <Botux> is there a site that has it simplified?
[05:54] <Aerodynamic> Do you mean you want to log all future conversations as well?
[05:54] <jebatamandua> TANKS UBOTTU
[05:54] <OvernightPR> Usser My EEE PC took just over 6 hours to netboot install.
[05:54] <Botux> like netinstall for sdummies lol
[05:54] <OvernightPR> Usser: But maybe I
[05:54] <OvernightPR> m just lucky
[05:54] <ndshacker> DasEU: im usin 2wire with sasktel as my isp
[05:55] <usser> OvernightPR, wow
[05:55] <ndshacker> I am on wired, and its a 1.5 mbps line
[05:55] <RORgasm> Aerodynamic, ok so in xchat when i clcik on this person that i've talked to before...there our conversations form the past are in the PM window....enabling loggin a conversation with that person will log future chats with that person...but now the history that is currently showing up in the PM window
[05:55] <DasEi> ndshacker: has the router a (web-) surface you can access ?
[05:55] <ndshacker> yes
[05:55] <Aerodynamic> And you don't want the history there?
[05:55] <Botux> if anyone could point me in a direction to make netinstall easier that would be great
[05:56] <clearscreen> !netinst
[05:56] <clearscreen> :P
[05:56] <clearscreen> ahw
[05:56] <clearscreen> ubottu: you suck
[05:56] <FloodBot1> clearscreen: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:56] <ndshacker> Daesi: i set up a dns cahce now
[05:56] <ndshacker> *dns
[05:56] <OvernightPR> Usser: so I guess I should have said Netboot *can be* excruciatingly slow. If you're lucky like me. :D
[05:56] <DasEi> ndshacker: is there an option to shape the separate ports (the different rj45's going to pc's ?)
[05:56] <Botux> how can 7.04 install and then uopgrade to 8.10 blow up in my face
[05:57] <usser> OvernightPR, well by default i downloads packages from ubuntu servers, if you create your own repository like i did locally. it'll be faster
[05:57] <emoXodus> #club-ubuntu
[05:57] <ndshacker> Dasei: port forwarding?
[05:57] <OvernightPR> vladmir: Well, in addition to not being terribly Linux-savvy, I am also up WAAYY past my bed time, so I'm sorry to say but that I am out of ideas for you.
[05:57] <usser> Botux, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/QuickNetboot seen that already?
[05:57] <emoXodus> sry bout that
[05:57] <DasEi> ndshacker: nope, traffic shaping
[05:58] <OvernightPR> Usser: That would likely have been a better idea, yeah. :)
[05:58] <ndshacker> Dasei: QOS?
[05:58] <miyako> could anyone tell me how to add a trusted SSL certificate? I'm using dreamhost for email and their ssl cert doesn't seem to work (I added it to /etc/ssl/certs but I still get an error that the certificate is not trusted)
[05:58] <vladimirtzu> OvernightPR  Haha, well thanks my man.  Guess I'll make a forum post about it and do a little more experimenting.  Since I already know it /should/ work since it has before, I'm sure its something silly and obvious
[05:58] <DasEi> ndshacker: not sure, what does that offer ?
[05:58] <OvernightPR> Miyako Isn't that better addressed to #ubuntu-server ?
[05:58] <ndshacker> to slow down or speed up indivutal conenctions: but i dont have it :p
[05:59] <dr-rice> delay
[05:59] <ndshacker> I can close his torrent port :p
[05:59] <dsnyders> Hi all.  I'd like to sweep through a directory tree and move all the avi files to the root of the tree.  How do I do this?
[05:59] <miyako> OvernightPR: I wasn't aware that there was an ubuntu-server
[05:59] <Botux> yes my thing is the pc im on right now is vista ultimate and tthe pc i want to install ubuntu on will be the second and only other pc on the network for now
[06:00] <OvernightPR> All right. I'm out of here, kids. I've done all the damage I can to this popsicle stand.
[06:00] <deagle> OvernightPR: whats the flag for launching firefox's user admin thing again?
[06:00] <bosco> how many linux distros can i install and boot seperatly to before there is to many partitions
[06:00] <bosco> ?????
[06:00] <usser> dsnyders, find . -name *.avi -exec mv {} /path/to/where/to/move/them \;
[06:00] <deagle> waaaiiittt nooooo
[06:00] <DasEi> ndshacker: so another (poke,poke) guess out; is yor nic smaller then the one of the other pc's (100/1000)  ?
[06:00] <uberg00n> ndshacker, again, on the internet the MAX you'd ever see is 1.5% usage unless youare transfering to another pc in yoru house.
[06:00] <dr-rice> you found me
[06:00] <OvernightPR> @deagle about:config I think.
[06:00] <ariqs> does this work for anyone? http://packages.medibuntu.org/pool/non-free/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20071007-0medibuntu2.1_i386.deb
[06:00] <Stupendoussteve> bosco: Unlimited. Don't put them on primacy partitions
[06:00] <dr-rice> bosko
[06:00] <deagle> OvernightPR: no, like, from CLI
[06:00] <deagle> OvernightPR: --user-sessions?
[06:00] <ndshacker> Dasei: im # 4
[06:00] <bosco> Stupendoussteve, do you have a website on how to do that
[06:00] <ndshacker> as in my dads tw get top share
[06:01] <dsnyders> usser, Thanks.  I thought it might be a find command, but I only know the -print option.
[06:01] <ndshacker> then our home server (which I manage)
[06:01] <deagle> OvernightPR: --list-manager?
[06:01] <usser> dsnyders, err if your files have spaces in them that might not work
[06:01] <ndshacker> then me
[06:01] <RORgasm> Aerodynamic, i want to log past conversations...
[06:01] <DasEi> ndshacker: ifconfig       in trml, dhcp assigned ? speed of connection ?
[06:01] <dr-rice> how to run a web site on linux
[06:01] <usser> dsnyders, find . -name *.avi -exec mv "{}" /path \; in this case
[06:01] <ndshacker> O.o
[06:01] <Stupendoussteve> bosco: Just choose logical instead of primacy, most any partitioning program has the option
[06:01] <Aerodynamic> you can't log past conversations
[06:01] <Aerodynamic> logging starts from when you activate it
[06:01] <RORgasm> Aerodynamic, i thought that i would be able to log the past conversations because they are appearing in the PM window when i click on the person
[06:01] <Botux> usser having only a vist machine on my network trying to install ubuntu on another machine is confusing
[06:01] <usser> dsnyders, back up your dir first you never know with find command
[06:01] <bosco> Stupendoussteve, now i can have windows with those as well right and that wont change anything
[06:01] <ariqs> http://packages.medibuntu.org/pool/non-free/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20071007-0medibuntu2.1_i386.deb
[06:02] <OvernightPR> deagle: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Command_line_arguments
[06:02] <dsnyders> usser, I shall.  Thanks.
[06:02] <RORgasm> Aerodynamic, right but where does xchat store this previous conversation history then?
[06:02] <ariqs> that download stops on me before I hardly get anything
[06:02] <Aerodynamic> When you initiate logging, everything the user says from that point on is logged
[06:02] <Stupendoussteve> bosco: Of course, it makes an extended partition (which is primary) and unlimited logical partitions inside of it
[06:02] <OvernightPR> @deagle pick one you like. :D
[06:02] <deagle> OvernightPR: lol thx!
[06:02] <usser> Botux, oooh... you need to figure out how to setup tftp server in vista, which i've never done
[06:02] <Aerodynamic> and then the log is stored in a log folder
[06:02] <ndshacker> dareis: dhcp is assigned
[06:02] <Stupendoussteve> bosco: At least, I believe unlimited. Still more than you should be running into with multibooting
[06:02] <ndshacker> and it seems to be the nameserver
[06:02] <gogeta> raawr
[06:02] <usser> Botux, you're better off going the upgrade way
[06:02] <DasEi> !tab | ndshacker
[06:02] <RORgasm> Aerodynamic, ok understood....but where is the chat history with this person located...its gotta be somewhere coz it appears when i open the persons PM window
[06:02] <Aerodynamic> when you talk to that person again, the logs are reloaded
[06:02] <ndshacker> since i set up a local nameserver, and i digged google
[06:03]  * OvernightPR poofs away!
[06:03] <Botux> usser now that you know that i have vusta machine do you think it would be easier to install 7.04 and then upgrade?
[06:03] <ndshacker> and got a 0 ms response lol :p
[06:03] <usser> Botux, yep :)
[06:03] <bosco> Stupendoussteve, and with that i can still boot what ever one i want at that time right have a boot screen come up????
[06:03] <Aerodynamic> Try out Preferences -> Chatting -> Logging -> "Open data folder"
[06:03] <Botux> ok some of the lts versions wont let you upgrade though will they?
[06:03] <ndshacker> but its still 1300 ms ping >.<
[06:04] <Stupendoussteve> ndshacker: ping is separate from dns
[06:04] <ndshacker> stupendesssteve: is it possible my isp throttles icmp?
[06:04] <Stupendoussteve> ndshacker: If you use traceroute you can attempt to see where delay might be coming from
[06:04] <ndshacker> ok
[06:04] <dr-rice> whats trace route
[06:05] <DasEi> ndshacker: I have no further ideas on that, as the d/l connection seems properly, and I don't think a multiport router causes this behaviour
[06:05] <dr-rice> is it sudo command
[06:05] <Botux> the other question i have is for the new ubuntu machine i have a belkin wireless entet adapter do you think itlll be hard to find a driver for it?
[06:05] <Stupendoussteve> dr-rice: It is a program that shows most of the routers as well as pings to them in the hops between you and the destination
[06:05] <ndshacker> Dasei: will call ISP in morning
[06:05] <gogeta> botux madwifi  driver
[06:05] <Botux> meant to say wireless enet adapter sorry
[06:05] <Stupendoussteve> dr-rice: I believe a normal user can run it
[06:05] <pteague> would it be possible to dd particular partitions & still get them to boot or do i need to dd the entire disk?
[06:05] <dsnyders> dr-rice, it's like a series of pings that are each one hop longer than the next.
[06:05] <ndshacker> and will also speak to dad about torrents or vpn over and throttle them myself >.<
[06:06] <gogeta> botux ubungtu has it in the extras packages
[06:06] <Botux> gogeta madwifi driver a website?
[06:06] <lanoxx> can i install db2 on intrepid?
[06:06] <gogeta> madwifi is the driver for beklins
[06:06] <Botux> oh ok lol
[06:06] <usser> pteague, its possible, you might need to reinstall boot manager(grub in linux) or windows one, whatever its name is
[06:06] <ndshacker> ok its defintily my isp
[06:06] <ariqs> http://packages.medibuntu.org/pool/non-free/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20071007-0medibuntu2.1_i386.deb can someone please download that and send it ot me
[06:06] <ndshacker> goes from 3 ms to 1300 at my isp
[06:06] <dr-rice> can you turn up the power with that driver
[06:06] <ndshacker> skips my router without a hitch
[06:06] <gogeta> ariqs qhy
[06:07] <gogeta> why
[06:07] <dr-rice> the belkin
[06:07] <DasEi> ndshacker: if not, try that QOS 8-)
[06:07] <ariqs> because the download stops on me at like, 40k
[06:07] <hemanth> use /nick hemanth.hm
[06:07] <pteague> usser: heh, going to dd my windows & 32bit ubuntu to a larger drive, then install 64bit on a different partition
[06:07] <ndshacker> yep :)
[06:08] <gogeta> ariqs you can apt that
[06:08] <gogeta> its in the reps
[06:08] <ariqs> it stops on me there too
[06:08] <lanoxx> pteague, i once dd'ed my windows and linux to a bigger driver
[06:08] <lanoxx> it works good
[06:08] <DasEi> dr-rice: shows the route from remote source to your host
[06:08] <lanoxx> just need to reinstall grub
[06:08] <pteague> lanoxx: dd just the partitions or the entire drive?
[06:08] <gogeta> ariqs use the package manger and change yor repo mirror
[06:09] <gogeta> atoped on me to wtf
[06:09] <ariqs> gogeta: easier if someone just sends it to me
[06:10] <lanoxx> pteague, i dd'ed the partitions one by one, for the ntfs one i mad sure that was an entry of exact same type and size etc in the partition table (do with fdisk), do ext3 you can simply create any size (same or bigger) but if its bigger you have to use fs2resize ofter you dd'ed it
[06:10] <thearthur> how can i extract 503 tar files to the current directory?
[06:10] <ariqs> I'm sick to death of the package manager nonsense
[06:10] <gogeta> fbgvjfdhg
[06:10] <ariqs> it's ridiculous
[06:10] <Stupendoussteve> ariqs: Sure it's not your isp?
[06:10] <pteague> lanoxx: k, ty
[06:10] <Stupendoussteve> If you can't download it manually it's not the manager's fault
[06:10] <ariqs> Stupendoussteve, I seem to be staying here alright
[06:10] <gogeta> its doin it to me to
[06:11] <lanoxx> pteague, welcome :)
[06:11] <Stupendoussteve> ariqs: Different protocol, large difference in the amount of data being transfered
[06:11] <ariqs> ok, thanks for trying, gogeta.
[06:11] <DigitalKiwi> what's wrong with package managers? D:
[06:11] <lanoxx> pteague, its resize2fs not fs2resize, just made a mistake up there
[06:12] <pteague> np, used it before... just been a while
[06:12] <lanoxx> pteague, and make you u use a bs=2M or something like that otherwise it will take ages
[06:12] <ariqs> Stupendoussteve, it doesn't work for gogeta either. Chances are, we don't share the same isp :)
[06:12] <lanoxx> gotta go, bye
[06:12] <hemanth> MSG hemanth hi
[06:13] <ariqs> a central deb website with mirrors would be too easy, naturally
[06:13] <Stupendoussteve> ariqs: medibuntu is unofficial...
[06:13] <Stupendoussteve> ariqs: Ubuntu repos are set up as you described ;)
[06:13] <thearthur> how do you tell tar to extract a bunch of files?
[06:13] <Stupendoussteve> ariqs: Downloaded fine for me, btw. 14 seconds
[06:13] <Don_Miguel> Flannel, Thanks muchly .. I think that fix **  https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2007-January/104520.html  ***took care of most of the problem ... it seems I may need to reboot a few more times to get everything ( all those 216upgrades programs )  properly installed ... but I am now WAY ahead of where I was a few hours ago !!  Thanks, Again !!
[06:14] <ariqs> you got all... ~14.7 megs?
[06:14] <Stupendoussteve> Yes

[06:26] <xsg> ill look those up thanks :)
[06:27] <Tophu> ok is this idea doable... I want to run an FTP ok my ubuntu box and forward the ports but when my modem reboot (power outage and such) my external ip addy changes. can I run a script that occasionally checks to see if my external ip has change and if it has changed have it email me the new ip addy?

[06:31] <DasEi> xsg:for just the cript, yes, for debugging there are tools n suites
[06:31] <ariqs> xsg: there should be a linux version of dev c++

[06:41] <hateball> I have a machine whose dmesg keeps flooding with this stuff http://paste.ubuntu.com/145978/ and I've no real idea why this might happen...
[06:43] <deanet> hi ..
[06:44] <rww> hateball: what version of Ubuntu is it running? Is it updated fully?
[06:44] <deanet> i've command line like this
[06:44] <deanet> echo 'h$ll^' | sed -e 's/\$/e/g' -e 's/\^/o/g'
[06:44] <dfcnvt> apt-get upgrade sshd
[06:44] <deanet> can i combination of option on sed ?
[06:44] <popey> hateball<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[06:44] <hateball> rww╶ fully updated hardy. I've got two identical machines, and only one of them exhibits this behaviour
[06:44] <popey> looks samba related
[06:45] <usser> deanet, just pipe it into another sed
[06:45] <usser> deanet, ie echo 'h$ll^' | sed -e 's/\$/e/g' | sed -e 's/\^/o/g'
[06:45] <deanet> usser, i means there is double -e ,
[06:45] <deanet> i want one option -e
[06:45] <deanet> ??
[06:45] <usser> deanet, oh
[06:46] <deanet> how ?
[06:46] <Tokenekie> Hi, how do I compare the "name" of two files in shell script?
[06:48] <GumOnMShu> ok i would like to be able to use lynx/elinks to go to a site, save its html, refresh, save it again, but under another name, how do i do that?
[06:48] <hateball> popey╶ I'm not using pam_smbpass tho. I am however using pam_ldap, but it's not hinting about that in the log
[06:48] <deanet> Tokenekie, i think use diff ...
[06:49] <GumOnMShu> i can get it to open the page and then i just run it again and it will refresh but how do i get it to save it to a different file name each time, like page1, page2, page3, etc
[06:49] <Tokenekie> deanet: No, diff compares what is contained in the files. I tried using [ foo > bar ] which is true, but if I do [ bar > foo ] I also get true
[06:49] <Tokenekie> deanet: By the way i created a file called foo then copied it to the same directory under the name bar, so they are essentially the same
[06:49] <xsg> How can i get LiVES ?? i realy want it
[06:50] <hateball> rww: it keeps segfaulting every 5 seconds, yet everything seemingly works...
[06:50] <arooni> hey folks;  how do i format /dev/sda1 from the command line to ext3?
[06:50] <popey> xsg: http://lives.sf.net/
[06:51] <DShepherd> is there a dedicated room for ubuntu netbook?
[06:51] <MrPocketz> ohhi!
[06:51] <popey> xsg: it's far from finished, I'd recommend you look at blender for video editing, it's very powerful
[06:51] <MrPocketz> I want to use Secure-delet's sswap command to wipe my SWAP space,  although i have to disable swap first.
[06:52] <MrPocketz> can this be done by just unmounting the swpa partition?
[06:52] <enzotib> arooni: mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda1
[06:52] <xsg> blender is for 3d ??
[06:52] <Tokenekie> deanet: Oh I figured it out, you need to use double square brackets for some reason I dont know
[06:52] <popey> xsg: blender also has a video editor built in
[06:52] <dooglus> arooni: mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda1
[06:52] <xsg> o ok ill get blender and try it out any others
[06:52] <Tokenekie> deanet:  [[ foo > bar ]]  #0,  [[ bar > foo ]]  #1
[06:52] <popey> xsg: thats the best one
[06:53] <xsg> ok thanks a bunch i still cant find any good c++ editors like visual c+ or dev c++
[06:53] <deanet> ok thanls Tokenikie
[06:54] <ariqs> xsg: I'm almost positive dev c++ is for linux too. I'm going to check now.
[06:54] <arooni> tonyyarusso, same issue;  should i try formatting /dev/sda1 ?
[06:54] <sparr> anyone else use a nvidia chipset and have your NIC get a random MAC every reboot?
[06:55] <ariqs> sparr: lol, that's funny
[06:55] <xsg> if dev c++ is for linux point me to an installer
[06:55] <almark1> Hello, I can hear a clicking sound in hardy, the left channel, when I play a sound like lmms or any program, I get a click on sound start and sound stop, I'm using alsa only, pulse audio is not installed, what could be the problem?
[06:55] <ariqs> xsg: if you're a programmer, why can't you compile it yourself anyway?
[06:56] <ZiggiZah> hello everyone. need printer setup help
[06:56] <xsg> cause i'm a new programmer only been 1-2 months
[06:57] <dr-rice> is there ubuntu flight semulator
[06:57] <ariqs> xsg: try codeblocks. It's in the synaptic package manager and a lot like dev c++. I like it better
[06:57] <Kartagis> hello good morning
[06:57] <dr-rice> i need a program to learn to fly
[06:57] <thecommutist> dr-rice: flightgear
[06:57] <Kartagis> is there a program which allows me to watch my shares and accesses to them graphically?
[06:57] <ariqs> throw your laptop running ubuntu out the window. that'll simulate flight
[06:57] <xsg> ok thanks
[06:57] <thecommutist> ariqs: lol
[06:57] <dr-rice> they had 2001-etc for microsoft
[06:58] <dr-rice> ubuntu 2009 fight semulater is what i,m lookin for
[06:58] <thecommutist> Kartagis: if you are running gnome, there's an applet you can add called stockwatch
[06:58] <syntax\> any suggestions on how to mass install ubuntu? constraints: migrating from windows xp to ubuntu 8.10. the used to be windows machines have 2 partitions c drive and d drive. the d drive needs to as ease because backups are stored there. any suggestions to have this done in 2 to 3 days?
[06:58] <dr-rice> whats wine all about
[06:59] <`brandon`> how do i run a perl irc bot?
[06:59] <eqisow> syntax: the d partition needs to what? stay where it is? be backed up? Are you getting rid of XP 100%?
[06:59] <`brandon`> dr-rice: wine is so you can use windows on Ubuntu or anyother Linux OS
[06:59] <lstarnes> dr-rice: it is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on linux.  it works very well but still lacks some support for more advanced things
[06:59] <dooglus> b: perl filename.pl
[06:59] <thecommutist> Kartagis: right click panel > add to panel
[06:59] <evilGUI> Can lm-sensors harm a system?
[07:00] <Kartagis> thecommutist, thanks
[07:00] <eqisow> syntax: also, how many machines are we talking?
[07:00] <popey> evilGUI: unlikely
[07:00] <evilGUI> I did sensors-detect
[07:00] <evilGUI> alright good =)
[07:00] <thecommutist> Kartagis: actually, it's called Invest not stockwatch, sorry!
[07:01] <syntax\> eqisow: exactly.
[07:01] <Kartagis> thecommutist, lol I meant samba shares
[07:01] <`brandon`> brandon@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ perl hello_nick.pl Can't locate Net/IRC.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at hello_nick.pl line 3.
[07:01] <`brandon`> BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at hello_nick.pl line 3.
[07:01] <eqisow> syntax\: exactly what? I asked like 4 questions o.O
[07:01] <thecommutist> Kartagis: shit! lol!
[07:01] <lstarnes> `brandon`: sudo cpan Net::IRC
[07:01] <gentubuntu> Yo what up did anyone message me?
[07:02] <syntax\> eqisow: the other ntfs partition should stay as ease. because there are back ups that are stored there. i need to figure out a solution to be able to surpass the issue. I have no idea if cloning would work because of the ntfs partition that needs to be saved.
[07:02] <evilGUI> popey: I guess speedfan does the same thing on the Windows side?
[07:02] <Swede> What does GRUB Error 22 mean?
[07:02] <popey> evilGUI: never used it, sorry
[07:02] <evilGUI> ah.
[07:02] <gentubuntu> GENA" ARE YOU THERE
[07:02] <gentubuntu> Gnea:
[07:02] <thecommutist> Kartagis: i think you can use nautilus for accessing your samba shares
[07:03] <gentubuntu> communist
[07:03] <gentubuntu> commy
[07:03] <Swede> I try to reinstall Linpus on my netbook, but Ubuntu have somehow messed up my computer. I have removed Ubuntu and all partitions, but when I try to boot Linpus I get GRUB Error 22. WHy?
[07:03] <dooglus> I just installed 'emacs-snapshot'.  i can't see it in the 'applications' menu anywhere.  should it be?
[07:03] <homerhomer> Hey Ubuntu channel, what is the best way to share files between Ubuntu 8.10 and Mac 10.4?
[07:03] <lstarnes> Swede: your configuration for grub has a module line before a kernel line
[07:03] <gentubuntu> Homrhomer DROBOX
[07:04] <Kartagis> thecommutist, I don't want to watch them. i want to watch them graphically
[07:04] <gentubuntu> you can find it at getdropbox.com
[07:04] <syntax\> eqisow: the d partition needs to what? stay where it is? be backed up? Are you getting rid of XP 100%? the d partition needs to be saved not over written or deleted; its already a backup; yes im getting rid of xp 100%
[07:04] <Swede> lstarnes: Uhm? What does that mean?
[07:04] <homerhomer> well that cool, but the free one only support up to 2 gigs
[07:04] <dooglus> homerhomer: http://tr.im/getdrop - it gets you an extra 250MB of storage (and me too :) )
[07:04] <thecommutist> gentubuntu needs to see an opthalmologist!
[07:04] <eqisow> syntax: OK, I follow, I think. If you have enough storage, the easiest thing may be to backup all the D partitions (which, really, should be backed up already), image the computers, then put the data back
[07:04] <gentubuntu> Yes but it is awesome
[07:04] <eqisow> syntax\: because a second partition on the same disk isn't a real backup
[07:04] <lstarnes> Swede: it means you need to take a look at /boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:05] <eqisow> syntax\: there's also no need to leave anything as ntfs is a 100% linux environment
[07:05] <Swede> lstarnes: Ok, using a Live CD then, because I haven't got any operating system installed yet.
[07:05] <evilGUI> core0 and core1 should be CPU correct?
[07:05] <gentubuntu> dooglus: i am already signed up can I get an extrea 250
[07:05] <NineTeen67Comet> Hi all. I've got an onboard mic issue with this Aspire One (8.10 inside). It just screeches and I've gone through all the choices. Is there a tool (CLI or otherwise) I can use to see what the interfierance issue is?
[07:05] <dawson> Hi I need help with GRUB, I set the timeout to 0 accidentally, and now I cannot boot back to Linux because the default OS is Windows
[07:05] <gentubuntu> does anyone know if Gnea is a guy or girl
[07:06] <ndshacker> dawson: live  cd
[07:06] <lyy> is there a linux tool to rescale a pic?
[07:06] <homerhomer> dooglus:  sorry I already have a drop box account
[07:06] <Swede> lstarnes: I thought /boot/grub/menu.lst was a part of Ubuntu.
[07:06] <dawson> I'm actually in there right now
[07:06] <popey> gentubuntu: inappropriate
[07:06] <eqisow> !offtopic | getubuntu
[07:06] <NineTeen67Comet> dawson: if you still have your live cd you can boot off it, mount the /boot partition and re-edit /boot/grub/menu.list ..
[07:06] <dawson> but I cannot mount my / partition
[07:06] <lstarnes> Swede: it's the config for grub
[07:06] <thecommutist> NineTeen67Comet: alsamixer
[07:06] <dawson> it is a reiserfs partition
[07:06] <ndshacker> dawson: then mount it and edit he file
[07:06] <gentubuntu> I installed this program I dont know it is but it mounts my drive and I can accesss anything from my windows drive it is awesome
[07:06] <ndshacker> geez
[07:06] <lyy> is there a linux tool to rescale a pics? I have about 500 5meg pics to rescale
[07:06] <gentubuntu> who are you?
[07:06] <anhsanhs> sudo
[07:07] <popey> lyy: imagemagick has a tool called "convert"
[07:07] <NineTeen67Comet> thecommutist: thanks .. I'll peek at it, but I think it is more than just settings (think I checked alsamixer a few weeks ago, I'll check it again real quick)
[07:07] <dooglus> lyy: use imagemagick's 'convert' utility
[07:07] <Swede> lstarnes: Yes, I understand that. I think the best would be to reinstall GRUB, I haven't got any partitions on my computer, I haven't got the Ubuntu installation on the hard drive. Maybe it's better to reinstall grub?
[07:07] <ndshacker> dawson: there are some live cds tyhat work with reiserfs i believe
[07:07] <lyy> dooglus: thanks!
[07:07] <lyy> popey: thanks!
[07:07] <dawson> ahh so the ubuntu live cd wont?
[07:07] <dawson> mount -t reiserfs /dev/sda2/ /media/FU
[07:07] <dawson> ?
[07:07] <ndshacker> i think it can
[07:07] <gentubuntu> Does anyone know what i downloaded that let me mount my C:] drive so I can access all my files, what ever it is it is awsome
[07:07] <ndshacker> what error do you get?
[07:08] <gentubuntu> i can listen to all my mp3's and read all my ebooks through calibre
[07:08] <ndshacker> gentubuntu: its called a terminal
[07:08] <gentubuntu> no
[07:08] <ndshacker> :p
[07:08] <dawson> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda2,        missing codepage or helper program, or other error
[07:08] <thecommutist> ndshacker: lol!
[07:08] <gentubuntu> there is something else
[07:08] <popey> !ntfs > gentubuntu
[07:08] <lstarnes> Swede: you could either reinstall grub or reconfigure it.  If you're going to be installing a new os over everything else, you might as well reinstall grub
[07:08] <gentubuntu> Usuallly ubuntu wont let you access ntfs
[07:08] <popey> gentubuntu: yes it does
[07:08] <gentubuntu> no
[07:08] <dooglus> how safe it is to write to an the /host/... directory when running a wubi-installed ubuntu?
[07:08] <dawson> gentubuntu: Ubuntu let's you access NTFS
[07:09] <popey> gentubuntu: I'm not going to argue with you, but you're wrong :)
[07:09] <gentubuntu> then how come i had to get a program
[07:09] <gentubuntu> not out of the box
[07:09] <ndshacker> you didnt
[07:09] <dawson> ntfs-3g is out of the box
[07:09] <popey> gentubuntu: yes, out of the box
[07:09] <popey> !ntfs
[07:09] <dfcnvt> mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/window-drive;echo "yay it work"
[07:09] <Swede> lstarnes: Yes, but the problem is that when I installed GRUB it did something with my computer and when I try to boot fron Linpus recovery usb then the computer answers GRUB Error 22.
[07:09] <thecommutist> gentubuntu: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[07:09] <lstarnes> Swede: it may be an error on the usb stick
[07:09] <gentubuntu> it lets you mounts your drive and access everything
[07:09] <Swede> lstarnes: When I installed Ubuntu, I meant.
[07:10] <gentubuntu> i was using 8.10 now im using suck 9.10
[07:10] <Swede> lstarnes: No, no, I have used it several times before on other computers without problems.
[07:10] <ndshacker> ...
[07:10] <popey> gentubuntu: 9.10 hasn't been started, perhaps you mean jaunty 9.04?
[07:10] <ndshacker> 9.10?
[07:10] <lstarnes> Swede: make sure your BIOS checks USB and CD before hard disks
[07:10] <thecommutist> gentubuntu: 8.10 supports it out of the box
[07:10] <ndshacker> i thin you mean 9.04
[07:10] <gentubuntu> oh yes
[07:10] <dawson> oh wait
[07:10] <dawson> ndshacker:
[07:10] <Swede> lstarnes: Ubuntu did something that makes it impossible for me to reinstall Linpus on my netbook.
[07:10] <dawson> nevermind
[07:10] <dawson> damn it im so stupid
[07:11] <ndshacker> dawson:
[07:11] <FloodBot1> dawson: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:11] <dawson> i was mounting sd2, it was sda3
[07:11] <ndshacker> LOL
[07:11] <dawson> thanks anyways, have a nice evening
[07:11] <gentubuntu> welll you do itg through the terminal i got a program that mounted my cd drive write on the desktop
[07:11] <Swede> lstarnes: Even if I choose usb on boot, then suddenly I get an GRUB Error 22.
[07:11] <ndshacker> geez man
[07:11] <ndshacker> its called
[07:11] <thecommutist> lol
[07:11] <ndshacker> mount
[07:11] <ndshacker> >.<
[07:12] <gentubuntu> mount,,kik'
[07:12] <gentubuntu> lol
[07:12] <ndshacker> anyone here use dns cache by any chance?
[07:12] <Gnea> gentubuntu: did you fix it?
[07:12] <ndshacker> since it seems to help me a lot :)
[07:12] <gentubuntu> gnea: no
[07:12] <Gnea> gentubuntu: did you follow the directions i gave you?
[07:12] <austin987> I've recently started getting errors in my shell scripts when using '||'  in combination with #/bin/sh (bash works fine)
[07:12] <gentubuntu> gnea: it wont let me download it i think my computer is broke
[07:13] <austin987> anyone know why? and/or a more portable way to do so?
[07:13] <Gnea> gentubuntu: eh? works fine here..
[07:13] <gentubuntu> Time to throw it and smash it with a baseball bat
[07:13] <Gnea> just type 'no' and press enter then
[07:13] <gentubuntu> Gnea: are you a guy or girl
[07:13] <Gnea> should be fine
[07:13] <Gnea> gentubuntu: that's offtopic
[07:13] <dfcnvt> || or, && and, ! not
[07:13] <Swede> How do I repair/reinstall GRUB using gParted?
[07:14] <jagu> Hi
[07:14] <JR_> clear
[07:14] <nxnn14> Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me with a problem with my graphics. The screen appears fragmented randomly all over the screen
[07:14] <Gnea> !gparted
[07:14] <n2diy> is installing from a flash drive as simple as putting an .iso on it?
[07:14] <popey> !usb | n2diy
[07:14] <gentubuntu> Gnea: sorry for asking question my bad for being intrested and wanted to have a conversation
[07:14] <Slart> Swede: I don't think you can.. type !grub for grub help
[07:14] <austin987> dfcnvt, what do you mean exactly?
[07:14] <thecommutist> n2diy: check out unetbootin
[07:14] <gates> where's the logoff file located?
[07:14] <gentubuntu> Gnea: can I just get rid of the sucky program I dont need JSE anyways
[07:14] <popey> gentubuntu: not here, this is a support channel not a chat channel
[07:14] <lstarnes> n2diy: you have to actually copy/burn the contents of the .iso to the drive, not just put the .iso on it as a file
[07:14] <Gnea> gentubuntu: yeah, that sort of talk is reserved for #ubuntu-offtopic. but, i am a guy.
[07:15] <n2diy> ok, thanks all.
[07:15] <popey> n2diy: unetbootin is good for making bootable usb sticks
[07:15] <gates> or can init + # can log off?
[07:15] <Gnea> gentubuntu: you should be able to just type 'no' and press enter, as I've suggested at least several times in the past couple of hours
[07:15] <gentubuntu> Gnea: ok i'm sorry your name sounds kind of like a girl as in Gina, I was going to says you know a lot for a girl but never mind
[07:15] <Swede> Slart: Ok, I think I have to use the Terminal in Ubuntu LiveCD
[07:15] <popey> gentubuntu: dude, enough
[07:15] <Slart> Swede: correct
[07:15] <gentubuntu> Gnea: I will try I don't know how to get back to it
[07:16] <thecommutist> mcp alert!
[07:16] <austin987> my script has, e.g., "OS=`uname -o` || OS=`uname -s`" to determine the OS it's on
[07:16] <austin987> the script is used on Ubuntu/*BSD/Solaris
[07:16] <Gnea> gentubuntu: well, I have to go now, so perhaps someone else can help you.  BTW, you shouldn't be such a sexist, it'll get you hurt or worse. bye.
[07:17] <austin987> but the '||' confuses Ubuntu (but only recently?)
[07:17] <gentubuntu> Gnea: one minute
[07:17] <popey> austin987: sh uses dash now, not bash, perhaps thats why?
[07:17] <dfcnvt> if the first command fail then it run afterward
[07:17] <Slart> austin987: are you sure it's the || that is causing trouble? I thought that was pretty basic
[07:17] <nxnn14> I was wondering if anyone could help me with a graphics problem I am having
[07:17] <austin987> it's been dash for a while I thought..
[07:17] <dfcnvt> echo "work fine?" || echo "fail"
[07:17] <popey> yeah
[07:17] <gentubuntu> Gnea: no I was just going to complete meant if you were a girl that not being sexist more girls need to get into technology in my opinion there is not enough
[07:17] <austin987> Slart, "daily.sh: 1: Syntax error: "||" unexpected"
[07:18] <Slart> austin987: can you pastebin the 10 or so lines around that line?
[07:18] <dfcnvt> echowhoops "work fine?" || echo "fail"
[07:18] <dfcnvt> it will take turn to second command when fail
[07:18] <thecommutist> nxnn14: what's the problem you are facing?
[07:19] <austin987> Slart, http://winezeug.googlecode.com/svn-history/r424/trunk/build_script/daily.sh
[07:19] <austin987> err: http://winezeug.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/build_script/daily.sh
[07:19] <gentubuntu> Gnea: I cant do nothing im still getting this message Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[07:20] <nxnn14> communist: so recently when I started my computer the graphics are fragmented, like blacks dots randomly on the screen hard to describe, I tried to remove the graphics card and use the on board graphics and the problem is better but still exists
[07:20] <Slart> austin987: I just tried a small test here using dash and || works fine as far as I can tell
[07:20] <gentubuntu> u行動規範の日本語訳は
[07:20] <austin987> Slart, hmm. thanks. Not sure what the problem is then...
[07:20] <gentubuntu> dash as in dash phone?
[07:21] <thecommutist> nxnn14: are you using the proprietary drivers for your graphics card? what's the make of your card?
[07:21] <Slart> austin987: you wrote this script yourself?
[07:21] <gentubuntu> I want to hook my phone up to ubuntu any one know a program tat will support windows mobile
[07:21] <austin987> Slart, yes
[07:21] <gentubuntu> u行動規訳は
[07:22] <gentubuntu> how do you change you name
[07:22] <Slart> austin987: one thing to check would be if the assignment really returns some kind of error code
[07:22] <gentubuntu> why do i get this message
[07:22] <nxnn14> the communist: its an nvidia, ya I had the drivers installed, but just did a fresh install and haven't gotten the internet up again yet so don't have the drivers installed again, but the problem was still there even with the drivers. I had it all working well for a while and out of nowhere it just stopped working.
[07:23] <bobbie4> I love the ubuntu
[07:23] <gentubuntu> Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[07:23] <austin987> Slart, good idea, sec
[07:23] <gentubuntu> Why do i get this message?
[07:23] <thecommutist> nxnn14: are you using 8.10?
[07:23] <popey> gentubuntu: you have a package manager running, synaptic, apt, update-manager etc
[07:23] <gentubuntu> And why does ubuntu start with a kubuntu logo?
[07:23] <nxnn14> the communist: yes
[07:24] <Slart> austin987: I just ran a small script with the offending line and the one after that.. works nicely here.. no errors
[07:24] <gentubuntu> go to synaptic
[07:24] <ActionParsnip> gentubuntu: you probably install kubuntu-desktop after installing ubuntu
[07:24] <Slart> austin987: it works no matter if I run it as "bash test.sh" "dash test.sh" or "sh test.sh"
[07:24] <gentubuntu> I installed some kde programs but did not install kubuntu
[07:24] <austin987> hmm
[07:25] <gentubuntu> popey: this is what i get when open synaptic Unable to lock something something:  This usually means that another package management application (like apt-get or aptitude) is already running. Please close that application first.
[07:26] <nxnn14> thecommutist: just was curious if anyone had any idea what the problem could be as I have not been able to find anything yet

[07:35] <Slart> arooni: you could boot from a live cd and use "dd" or "wipe" to clear it all
[07:35] <cosoal> what is wrong?
[07:35] <arooni> Slart, i'm at the livecde;  how do i do that
[07:36] <Slart> arooni: I'm not sure what those low level formatting utilities from the manufacturers actually do besides that..
[07:36] <dfcnvt> Cosoal ，请检查您的/ etc /配置目录wxWidgets程序
[07:36] <Slart> arooni: I've never managed to remember the syntax for dd.. man dd in a terminal will probably tell you more..
[07:37] <eqisow> arooni: dd if=/dev/null of=/dev/sda bs=1M (use hda for an ata drive, sdb for the second drive, etc)
[07:37] <iulianpojar> aroono: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1 count=512
[07:38] <Slart> see.. there's the reason I've never learned it... there's always a ton of people that knows =)
[07:38] <Belial-> anyone notice pidigin is displaying in all workspaces on the taskbar now for some reason? (9.04)
[07:39] <Belial-> pidgin*
[07:39] <eqisow> arooni: You could also use a boot disk to test your HD, if you think it's suspect
[07:39] <arooni> how can i test the hard drive?
[07:39] <iulianpojar> arooni: ifi you want to delete partitions table than you must do : dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1 count=1M
[07:39] <iulianpojar> arooni: hdpam -tT
[07:40] <eqisow> arooni: The hard drive manuf's utilities are usually beest for that, many are included in hiren's (google it). I personally use a multiboot I rolled myself /shameless plug
[07:40] <arooni> how do i know which hard drive i have
[07:40] <eqisow> hdparm**
[07:40] <Slart> not sure if we should recommend boot cd's that use pirated software here
[07:41] <eqisow> Slart: maybe not, I recommend the best tool though /shrug
[07:41] <Belial-> does anyone know if there is a way to keep pidgin from displaying in all workspaces in the taskbar? seems like it started doing it after an update. using 9.04. i'm sure it might be a gnome problem, but i'd figure i'd give it a shot in here.
[07:41] <Belial-> checked google, seemed to be an old bug for some people. i've never had the problem before though.
[07:42] <magnetron> Belial-→ i've experienced the same since 7.04 at least
[07:42] <Belial-> ah.
[07:42] <Belial-> no work around, eh?
[07:42] <arooni> how do i list all the hard drive devices connected
[07:42] <Belial-> the post i found seemed to be getting to it...and then they closed it.
[07:42] <eqisow> arooni: fdisk -l
[07:43] <arooni> eqisow, i see: "cannot open /dev/sda"  is that bad?
[07:43] <smurf_> RTFM
[07:44] <git_2> rtfm to u too smurf
[07:44] <ariqs> I hate reading
[07:44] <arooni> eqisow, ? ;p
[07:44] <Slart> !rtfm
[07:45] <eqisow> acronyms aren't welcome? o.O
[07:45] <ariqs> noob, jfgi, stfu and RTFM!
[07:45] <eqisow> arooni: It would certainly explain why the partitioner's not working
[07:45] <ariqs> acronyms like
[07:45] <arooni> eqisow, anything i can do?  or is the drive toast?
[07:45] <Slart> arooni: you did run the command as root, right?
[07:45] <arooni> Slart, yes sir
[07:46] <Slart> arooni: hmm.. odd
[07:47] <arooni> Slart, actually when i do : "sudo fdisk -l" i see nothing.
[07:47] <eqisow> arooni: You can always run a real tester, to be sure, but very possible. You can also try hdparm -Tt /dev/sda for a rudimentary test (it will still pass this if it's just flakey and not bricked)
[07:48] <mib_028dg3> hello, I tried DISPLAY=<IP_ADDRESS>:0.0 gedit from my pc but i can't see any thing in this <IP_ADDRESS> remote host though I put xhost + there

[07:49] <thecommutist> people, what's the command to reconfigure X?
[07:50] <dfcnvt> xorg
[07:50] <eqisow> arooni: if it didn't come with your computer and is less than 5 years old, it may be under warranty from the drive manuf. If it came with the computer, you may be able to check with the computer manuf.
[07:51] <carrera> Greetings!
[07:51] <Titan8990> thecommutist, in debian: sudo dpkg --reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:52] <quibbler> thecommutist-> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:52] <carrera> can anyone tell me why Ubuntu is trying to update my kernel 2.6.27-14 with 2.6.27-11?
[07:54] <arooni> eqisow, is there any way to know who the drive manufacturer is so i can run the correct diagnostics from the ultimate boot cd?
[07:54] <thecommutist> thanks Titan8990, quibbler
[07:55] <thecommutist> arooni: lshw
[07:55] <dumb_dumb> guys i need help
[07:55] <carrera> can anyone tell me why Update Manager is trying to update my kernel 2.6.27-14 with 2.6.27-11?
[07:55] <arooni> eqisow, i ran the hdparm command and i got:  "read() failed: input/output error:  timing buffered disk reads: read() failed: input/output error"
[07:55] <arooni> does that sounds like the drive is dead?\
[07:55] <eqisow> arooni: don't bother with the other test then, she's a brick
[07:55] <arooni> oh noes;  i blew it up!
[07:56] <arooni> thats what i get for dropping my laptop
[07:56] <thecommutist> arooni: try connecting the drive to a different power connector
[07:56] <eqisow> arooni: lol, you could have mentioned that to begin with fella :p
[07:56] <arooni> its a laptop drive
[07:56] <dfcnvt> I have no idea, maybe they found out it's no good version & decided to switch back to orginal
[07:56] <arooni> i dont have a lot of options
[07:56] <thecommutist> arooni: oops! didn't knew it's a laptop
[07:56] <arooni> eqisow, i've dropped it before ;p
[07:56] <eqisow> arooni: like I said, if it's not old check with the manuf and don't mention dropping it.. otherwise, time to visit newegg :p
[07:57] <dumb_dumb> when i try to install libc6-dev I got these error : http://paste.ubuntu.com/146013/
[07:57] <arooni> i wonder how much a good 3.5" drive is
[07:57] <dumb_dumb> how can i fix those?
[07:57] <arooni> although my 100gb is under warranty
[07:57] <ariqs> I want to burn .avi to dvd video format
[07:57] <thecommutist> ariqs: use mandvd or devede
[07:58] <eqisow> ariqs: or get a divx player ;)
[07:58] <dfcnvt> dumb_dumb, apt-get install libc6
[07:58] <almark1> Hello  I am using just alsa for my sound needs, and recently I get this click sound in my left channel speaker everytime I start or stop a sound, what could this be, does anyone know of this? I am using Ubuntu Hardy.
[07:58] <psypher246> hey all, has anyone else's totem not been able to play ANY formats since the last update? is it just me? thnx
[07:58] <ariqs> is mandvd or devede smaller?
[07:58] <dfcnvt> first then the next
[07:58] <ndshacker> hi there, speed test says I have a 149 kb/s download, but i see no poof of this :(
[07:58] <dumb_dumb> so what that error mean
[07:58] <thecommutist> ariqs: smaller as in?
[07:59] <ariqs> file size
[07:59] <psypher246> even vlc is broken????
[07:59] <eqisow> dumb_dumb: it means the package is broken, more or less, because it depends on a lower version of libc6 than is installed
[07:59] <almark1> I have googled many places, I am using a Audigy SE creative soundblaste
[07:59] <ndshacker> as in my max download it seems is 17 kb/s
[07:59] <ariqs> I'll just go for mandvd since I'm a MAN
[07:59] <thecommutist> ariqs: no idea, check with the package manager
[07:59] <dfcnvt> it just mean you need to get something first..
[08:00] <eqisow> dumb_dumb: You can probably force it safely. Are you running a development version (jaunty) by chance? or did you do some manual installation of stuff?
[08:00] <thecommutist> ariqs: lol!
[08:00] <almark1> I have googled many places, but I can not find my exact problem.
[08:00] <dfcnvt> I think you need to update your kernel.. not sure if that what it means..
[08:00] <carrera> can anyone tell me why Update Manager is trying to update my kernel 2.6.27-14 with 2.6.27-11?
[08:00] <dfcnvt> apt-get install 2.7-10ubuntu4
