[00:00] <sweb> neverblue, so what the command of clear uninstall
[00:00] <GeekSquid> george_: to install teamspeak type in terminal... sudo apt-get install teamspeak-client
[00:00] <rahduke> on 10.04 everytime I startup my keyring manager asks for its password, its interfering with XBMC launching how can I set it to remember or disable the popup? I'm not even sure which service is requesting it.....
[00:00] <garrett_> Ubottu: sorry, im have grub installed on my computer and i am trying to get windows xp running but it wont let me
[00:00] <neverblue> sweb: why are you using soundforge ?
[00:00] <GeekSquid> sweb: sudo apt-get remove --purge packagename
[00:00] <hmw> huh? Gehe nach #ubuntu-de für Support auf Deutch
[00:00] <acerimmer> garrett: did you install ubuntu after XP?
[00:00] <neverblue> sourceforge*
[00:01] <ZykoticK9> rahduke, disabling autologin is the easiest way to get rid of the keyring issue.
[00:01] <dugger5688> Rahduke: check Ubuntu one settings.
[00:01] <geirha> dick-richardson: Not sure what you mean or why that means you need the deprecated cli-version
[00:01] <rahduke> dugger5688: Iill look into it
[00:01] <garrett_> ubottu: i am having trouble with grub
[00:01] <rahduke> ZykoticK9: disabling autologin defeats the purpose
[00:01] <hmw> rahduke: one can enter an empty password to the keyring in order to get rid of the annoying additional password checks
[00:02] <garrett_> i am having trouble with grub
[00:02] <acerimmer> garrett_: I sent you a Direct Chat invte
[00:02] <hmw> rahduke: of course that might be a security problem
[00:02] <DG19075> !grub\
[00:02] <hmw> !grub2 | garrett_
[00:02] <sebsebseb> garrett_:  ubottu is a computer program a bot, what is your problem with Grub?  Which version of Ubuntu?  Grub or  Grub 2?
[00:02] <rahduke> hmw: what if I've already set it to a specific password? It doesn't seem a keyring manager has been included by default
[00:03] <hmw> rahduke: i would like to know that, too. Chances are good, that Google knows the answer. Just type the full question into google.
[00:03] <sweb> GeekSquid, thank @"'-
[00:03] <george_> Yeah the problem Geeksquid is that that is the old version
[00:03] <garrett_> sebsebseb: grub 2
[00:03] <neverblue> sweb: perhaps you missed my previous question, why are you using sourceforge ?
[00:03] <sebsebseb> garrett_: well look at hte page the bot gave
[00:03] <mkquist> garrett_:is xp installed?
[00:03] <rahduke> hmw: I've already been there...lol. I really prefer to just disable the popup somehow
[00:04] <GeekSquid> george_: there may be a newer version compiled already @ https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas
[00:04] <hmw> rahduke: hmm... let me try my luck
[00:04] <garrett_> sebsebseb: i have already looked there with no luck
[00:04] <DeathMetalDean> SealedWithAKiss, haven't found any ways of getting flash yet, you had any luck?
[00:04] <acerimmer> garrett_: sudo updtate-grub
[00:04] <acerimmer> garrett_: sudo update-grub
[00:04] <rahduke> hmw: I remember seahorse used to manage the keyring, i'm gunna look in the repos
[00:04] <hmw> rahduke: i just got 35.000 entries when i googled "how to disable keyring ubuntu"
[00:04] <ZykoticK9> rahduke, hmw to disable the keyring you need to remove the current one, then reset all your password for networking selecting no password - then agreeing to the "unsafe storage" option.  which does make your system much less secure.  as i origionally said, disabling autologin in the "easy" way
[00:04] <SealedWithAKiss> DeathMetalDean, I have been playing the PS3 so no I haven't.
[00:05] <DeathMetalDean> SealedWithAKiss,  lol xD ok
[00:05] <hmw> ZykoticK9: remove == uninstall??
[00:05] <ZykoticK9> hmw, not uninstall!
[00:05] <cosmicjoke> hey all, anyone have any ideas what it might mean when on installation of lucid only one of my neighbors shows up in my wireless?  lol, is just new to me... usually either wireless works or it doesn't, not partially.
[00:05] <ZykoticK9> hmw, just the keyring file
[00:05] <rahduke> ZykoticK9: well this is a media center so ideally there wouldnt be a login screen and it XBMC would launch fullscreen
[00:05] <Grizmawe> hmw, yes - if you use purge it will also remove any configs
[00:06] <acerimmer> cosmicjoke: it means his router is not running wep/wap protection
[00:06] <rahduke> ZykoticK9: it was working fine w/ 9.10
[00:06] <hmw> Grizmawe: ZykoticK9: aargh... why dont you tell us, what file it is *grin*
[00:06] <ZykoticK9> rahduke, i use Mythbuntu successfually without a login on both karmic and lucid
[00:06] <cosmicjoke> ahhh, so any idea why mine is hidden?
[00:06] <uso_> Türkce yazisalim
[00:06] <jorozco> Using the lowest speed to burn my iso failed.  What's odd, is that the CD's setup / integrity check fails the MD5 checksum verification on the same file all the time: ./dists/lucid/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz. Any ideas?
[00:06] <sebsebseb> 1tr | uso_
[00:06] <sebsebseb> !tr | uso_
[00:06] <ZykoticK9> hmw, i won't directly support it sorry
[00:06] <neverblue> cosmicjoke: can you be more specific as to what your question is, all in a single line (not multiple posts) ?
[00:06] <rahduke> ZykoticK9: this unit doesn't have a cablecard, didnt see a need for mythbuntu....
[00:06] <hmw> *sigh*
[00:07] <ZykoticK9> rahduke, i was just pointing out
[00:07] <acerimmer> jorozco: use windows to burn the iso.  You might need the utility from feinman
[00:07] <hmw> sometimes i really doubt this "not supported" issues, like using sudo for becoming root permanently. So what? well... Ubuntu.
[00:07] <epkugelmass> where is the appropriate place to file a bug for a kernel/Xorg segphault?
[00:07] <rahduke> ZykoticK9: I'm not sure how to see what service is requesting the key, do you have any idea?
[00:08] <ChrisC_> Can you delete pulseaudio and install just ALSA?
[00:08] <GeekSquid> hmw: sudo -i
[00:08] <acerimmer> jorozco: isorecorder.alexfeinman.com
[00:08] <hmw> GeekSquid: i know. and SHHH! thats not supported
[00:08] <ZykoticK9> rahduke, 9 out of 10 it's nm-applet (network manager)
[00:08] <uso_> ubuntu-tr veriyorum ama nafile
[00:08] <sebsebseb> ChrisC_: you can remove it some how, but probably won't be that easy,  where as some distros you can easilly disable it and just use alsa
[00:08] <ZykoticK9> cya guys
[00:08] <cosmicjoke> currently my list of wireless network connections only includes one my neighbors (not mine or any of my other neighbors) -  i'd like it to work again is all, lol.  i have a realtek 8172 wireless card in my thinkpad.  any ideas?
[00:08] <rahduke> ZykoticK9: what happen to the network icon in indicator-applet?
[00:08] <GeekSquid> hmw: if I am not root how can I break anything, ha ha
[00:08] <rahduke> ZykoticK9: it only shows up when on Wifi
[00:09] <hmw> rahduke: google for "how to disable keyring ubuntu"
[00:09] <theGman> ZykoticK9: Nope,I still get: Input can't be opened... What the heck?
[00:09] <cosmicjoke> sorry if i'm inept at explaining my problem :/
[00:09] <ChrisC_> Does anyone know how to do it?
[00:09] <sebsebseb> ChrisC_: also if you remove it in Ubuntu, it might effect sound applet
[00:09] <neverblue> cosmicjoke: what is the question?
[00:09] <acerimmer> ChrisC_: do WHAT?
[00:09] <rahduke> hmw: what do u think i typed into google? How to make assumtions people know nothing about google?
[00:09] <Grizmawe> hmw, gnome-keyring i think. Dont know about uninstalling it though. You may want to delete ~/gnome2/keyrings/default.keyring, see if that helps first
[00:09] <GeekSquid> ChrisC_: uninstalling pulseaudio causes a automatic fallback to alsa
[00:10] <ChrisC_> Remove pulseaudio and havej just ALSA.
[00:10] <rahduke> hmw: if i had found a result that satisfied my question i would not turn up here
[00:10] <ChrisC_> GeekSquid: Oh does it I'll have to try that now.
[00:10] <theGman> Does ANYONE know how to solve the error: Input can't be opened in the vlc player when trying to play a dvd?
[00:10] <cosmicjoke> do you think there might be a problem w/ wireless driver that lucid selected for me on install?
[00:10] <hmw> rahduke: because i just found a lot of instructions there? uhm... Grizmawe just gave the answer, what file needs to be removed, btw.  I'm using fglrx
[00:10] <hmw> rahduke: i gave you the search term, i was not "LMGTFY"ing you ;-)
[00:10] <Black_Dog> Hello #ubuntu
[00:11] <cosmicjoke> no, not w/ lucid... i'm currently booted into windows atm
[00:11] <theGman> Is it because the dvd is auto mounted? I believe I had that issue in a diff distro and unmounting solved it but unmounting it doesn't seem to be that easy...
[00:11] <sebsebseb> !hello | Black_Dog
[00:11] <hmw> aargh-.-.- find doesnt find keyrings, when i search for keyring *swears a lot*
[00:11] <jorozco> Thanks for the suggestion :) But I left Windows years ago.
[00:11] <rahduke> http://www.noob2geek.com/how-to/how-to-disable-gnome-keyring-in-ubuntu-10-04/
[00:11] <rahduke> that didnt work
[00:11] <neverblue> cosmicjoke: but it is working in Windows ?
[00:11] <rahduke> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1110931
[00:11] <rahduke> that didnt work
[00:11] <rahduke> and so on
[00:12] <cosmicjoke> neverblue: aye, it works in windows.
[00:12] <macman_> yea
[00:12] <Droopsta915> Hello, I can't find anything online on how to uninstall Ubuntu from my flash drive. Anyone know a good place to look?
[00:12] <neverblue> cosmicjoke: so the hardware is fine, its the driver
[00:12] <Black_Dog> I installed Cairo-dock, downloaded a new theme and now I cannot log into my box. I can see the login screen, but when I put in my password it will flash my background and then voila back to the log in screen. If someone would like to help me I would be very happy!
[00:12] <sebsebseb> !usb | Droopsta915
[00:12] <hmw> rahduke: hmm i see ...
[00:12] <neverblue> cosmicjoke: did you try the Ubuntu forums, looking for your type of wireless card yet ?
[00:12] <acerimmer> Gotta go wipe the headcrab blood off my crowbar.  cya.
[00:12] <GeekSquid> epkugelmass: here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer
[00:12] <cosmicjoke> right, i tried the driver though from realtek's website --- it worked w/ karmic, but doesn't seem to w/ lucid
[00:12] <hmw> rahduke: what ubunt version? how can i reproduce the situation? must be some setting somewhere in the dephts of gnome
[00:13] <rahduke> ill keep at it
[00:13] <theGman> Anyone? Someone? Plz?  That's worked for me in the past (using gparted)
[00:14] <DeathMetalDean> SealedWithAKiss, you may call me a genius, I fixed the problem
[00:14] <rahduke> Grizmawe: i've just done that and added seahorse plugins, gunna messaround
[00:14] <rahduke> thanks
[00:14] <rahduke> later
[00:14] <neverblue> cosmicjoke: are you using a 64bit OS, did you use a 64bit OS before ?
[00:14] <DeathMetalDean> SealedWithAKiss, lol xD go to Ubuntu Software Centre and search "flash" then just install the Adobe Flash Plugin
[00:14] <hmw> Grizmawe: shouldt the manager be installed by default?
[00:14] <Black_Dog> Is there a "safe mode" for ubuntu
[00:14] <Black_Dog> it is 10.04
[00:14] <Black_Dog> 64bit
[00:15] <neverblue> Black_Dog: LiveCD might be what your looking for....
[00:15] <sebsebseb> Black_Dog: or recovery mode from Grub
[00:15] <sebsebseb> Black_Dog: from the boot loader
[00:15] <duongthaiha> hi any one know where can i down load the correct flash for ubuntu 64 bit
[00:15] <mkquist> theGman: did you try opening the file with command line?
[00:15] <epkugelmass> GeekSquid, I already have fglrx installed. this is not an installer issue. anyway, the fglrx-installer package no longer exists. how am i supposed to use ubuntu-bug?
[00:15] <cosmicjoke> i'm not using 64 bit atm, as i had troubles w/ my wireless driver in 64 bit for karmic (it wouldn't stay connected) -  32 bit for karmic worked fine, so for lucid i went 32 bit
[00:15] <neverblue> !flash
[00:15] <theGman> Anyone to help getting vlc to play a dvd? Getting: Input can't be opened. Movie player works fine.
[00:15] <hmw> Black_Dog: on boot it says "press esc for grub" (or "boot menu") should be 2 seconds i believe. This brings up a boot menu, you should have an alternative entry somehow like what you want. But perhaps booting the live cd is a better option
[00:16] <Black_Dog> Okay, thank you!
[00:16] <sebsebseb> theGman: what kind of DVD?
[00:16] <theGman> sebsebseb: Regular store-bought dvd.
[00:16] <sebsebseb> theGman: commercial bought DVD?  One you made yourself?
[00:16] <sebsebseb> theGman: ok
[00:16] <dassouki> a noob here, just installd ubuntu on a netbook alongside win 7. i get sent to the build-in shell (ash_ initramfs .. ive read some solutions on google, but way beyond my head
[00:16] <sebsebseb> theGman: did you install the program for DVD support or not?
[00:16] <cosmicjoke> i could always try the 64 bit version and see if somehow it has a working wireless driver, but i'm not optimistic lol
[00:16] <Hornet-> my fakeraid array (raid5) is no longer mounted at boot time, causing booting to fail... not sure how I can fix it without reinstalling everything?
[00:17] <garrett_> grub will not load windows xp
[00:17] <theGman> sebsebseb: Like I said, movie player works fine. I installed the libdvdread thing from the Ubuntu website..
[00:17] <sebsebseb> theGman: yes that's what I mean
[00:17] <theGman> sebsebseb: It's just the vlc player says the input can't be opened for some reason..
[00:17] <sebsebseb> garrett_: Clean install of Ubuntu? Please provide more details
[00:18] <hmw> dassouki: your install went sour somehow.  installing again _might_ help perhaps. Sometimes does. Also check the drive for health. This shouldnt be happening usually.
[00:18] <mkquist> theGman: did you install css?
[00:18] <Droopsta915> jorozco: I'll give it a whirl. Thanks
[00:18] <garrett_> sebsebseb: what details u need?
[00:18] <sebsebseb> !details | garrett_
[00:18] <theGman> mkquist: Didn't know I needed to? what's the pkg name?
[00:18] <mkquist> theGman:  libdvdcss2
[00:18] <sebsebseb> garrett_: saying that XP  can't be booted from Grub,  doesn't  answer,  how you installed Grub for example
[00:18] <mkquist> theGman: css encryption
[00:18] <sebsebseb> garrett_: if you put Ubuntu on recently or not, and that kind of thing
[00:19] <hmw> is dvdcss2 included in ubuntu-restriced-extras?
[00:19] <sebsebseb> garrett_: and whch version of Ubuntu you have installed
[00:19] <theGman> mkquist: Thx.
[00:19] <chid> Just curious about downgrading, is there any way to retain programs that I've installed
[00:19] <mkquist> garrett_: can you boot to ubuntu?
[00:19] <mkquist> theGman: np =)
[00:19] <sebsebseb> chid: Downgrading the whole of Ubuntu that is not supoprted, but you can clean install
[00:19] <sebsebseb> !downgrade | chid
[00:19] <hmw> chid: *eek* i wouldnt dare do that to my install.
[00:20] <chid> sebsebseb but if I clean install I'll lose everything I installed
[00:20] <garrett_> sebsebseb: version 10.04, i can boot into ubuntu, i turn on the computer, i am brung up with the choices, i choose windows xp, i select it and then all i get is a screen with a blinking cursor
[00:20] <chid> can I keep the deb packages
[00:20] <Fallyn> Hey guys. How're you today?
[00:20] <sebsebseb> !grub2 | garrett_
[00:20] <dassouki> hmw, how can i check the drive for health
[00:20] <garrett_> sebsebseb: yes grub 2
[00:21] <hmw> chid: you might use live cd to repartition, install a second ubuntu (the "new older" version) and mount the "old newer" version for fetching config files.
[00:21] <fatum> My audio device is: VIA 1708S Sound output works fine, however I'm hoping to get sound input setup.  Is anyone familiar with the VIA 1708S?
[00:21] <sebsebseb> garrett_: right well that's a start to read that page,  if you don't understand it though, which you probably won't exactly if your new, well  people here can help and such
[00:21] <hmw> dassouki: can you still boot w7? use that
[00:21] <mkquist> garrett_: boot into ubuntu and open terminal and 'update grub2' see if that helps...  just a suggestion
[00:21] <chid> hmw, don't think that'll work easy :p
[00:21] <mkquist> garrett_: usually grub2 is pretty good at picking up on installed os's
[00:21] <PC> ti xpress 200 Radeon?
[00:21] <hmw> chid: i know, but might save some of your work
[00:21] <sebsebseb> garrett_: you might have to edit Grub 2, and get it booting   XP yourself
[00:22] <duongthaiha> @ubottu thanks a lot
[00:22] <PC> Guys
[00:22] <PC> I need help
[00:22] <GeekSquid> !ask | PC
[00:22] <sebsebseb> garrett_: or maybe this is the sign,  time to no longer use a pshyical install of  XP, only  Ubuntu, and Windows for stuff that isn't say 3D games inside Ubuntu in a virtual machine, if the computer can handle it
[00:22] <PC> whenever i try to run a live session or try to install ubuntu is all shaking and fuzzy
[00:22] <PC> its on a ati xpress radeon 200
[00:22] <hmw> chid: btw. having another ubuntu on the drive allows you to boot into it, thus not having the other file system mounted, so you can back it up with parted or dd
[00:22] <GeekSquid> PC: what version of ubuntu?
[00:23] <hmw> chid: partimage, i meant
[00:23] <PC> 10.04
[00:23] <chid> hmm
[00:23] <PC> lucid
[00:23] <chid> but I can backup any time anyway
[00:23] <GeekSquid> PC: Laptop?
[00:23] <garrett_> sebsebseb: well i need the physical version, but how can i get grub 2 to boot windows? it doesnt work
[00:23] <PC> No desktop
[00:23] <mkquist> sebsebseb: on that note, quick question, can a 3rd person shooter like cod2 be run in vbox? effectively? if the hardware is up to task?
[00:23] <PC> H ppavlion a1130n
[00:23] <hmw> well... i was just brainstorming
[00:23] <PC> i added extra ram
[00:24] <sebsebseb> garrett_: That depends on the apps you want to run, if you really do need a pshyical install or not, and if your computer  has at least well I would say 1GB RAM for a Windows vm.
[00:24] <UbuntuBoy> my friend gets this error when trying to install: could not start device/dev/mapper/asr_pictures-no such file or directory
[00:24] <garrett_> sebsebseb: yes i need the physical copy
[00:24] <sebsebseb> mkquist: I think if you got good enough hardware, you can actsauly now days run loads of 3D games in Virtualbox and quite well.
[00:24] <wildbat_laptop> garrett_, http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector
[00:24] <Fallyn> I'd like to ask. On an ubuntu install -- My GPU is a ATI Radeon Xpress 200 -- My screen quivers and shakes, anyone experiancing the same problem?
[00:25] <hmw> UbuntuBoy: does he have a RAID controller?
[00:25] <sebsebseb> garrett_: Why?  anyway good luck trying to fix Grub 2
[00:25] <wildbat_laptop> Fallyn, try the newest driver?
[00:25] <PC> We did that
[00:25] <mkquist> garrett_: have you tried updating grub?
[00:25] <dassouki> hmw: ya i can boot into win 7
[00:25] <sebsebseb> Fallyn: so you installed Ubuntu, installed the propritary driver for the card, and now issues booting up, or ?
[00:25] <garrett_> sebsebseb: look are u gonna help me or not?
[00:25] <Fallyn> Aye. PC has the latest driver
[00:25] <Fallyn> No no. It boots fine
[00:26] <Fallyn> But, the screen quivers
[00:26] <garrett_> mkquist: yes and to no sucess
[00:26] <Fallyn> And shakes
[00:26] <hmw> dassouki: do a physical check for the drive (the full check, i cant tell how to do in windows)
[00:26] <FloodBot4> Fallyn: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:26] <FloodBot1> Fallyn: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:26] <sebsebseb> garrett_: I can't really help you as such, since I don't mess around with Grub 2, when I can avoide it :)
[00:26] <Lichte> greetings Ubuntuists
[00:26] <PC> well?
[00:26] <sebsebseb> garrett_: altough I want to make it look nicer on the other computer...
[00:26] <PC> It quviers alot
[00:26] <hmw> !hi | Lichte
[00:26] <UbuntuBoy> hmw: he has got the message on 2 different computer with 2 different cds of 10.04. But 9.04 worked fine. Would a raid controler cause that error?
[00:27] <PC> and the card is open source its xpress 200
[00:27] <Lichte> how can I get a systemtray icon for Empathy ??
[00:27] <hmw> UbuntuBoy: I need to admit, that that was a wild guess, due to the "mapper" thing.
[00:28] <deshymers> hmm when i do a lsmod I dont see my wireless driver attacked to my nic card, I'm using lucid and it is a broadcom nic card and the broadcom driver is installed
[00:28] <deshymers> attached*
[00:28] <GeekSquid> Lichte: that is the one with your username in it in the upper right
[00:28] <PC> why is everyone ingnoring me
[00:29] <UbuntuBoy> hmw: I'll ask him and check back, bye
[00:29] <GeekSquid> PC: perhaps they are looking up a solution for you
[00:29] <hmw> !wifi | deshymers
[00:29] <garrett_> anyone willing to help me with grub 2?
[00:29] <GeekSquid> !patience | PC
[00:29] <peterkls> anyone get sataraid to work yet?
[00:29] <Lichte> GeekSquid: yes, but when I close out the contact list, that is grayed out
[00:29] <iflema> garrett_ is window xp on the first partition of you harddrive..... do you know? XP will not work unless its up front at least it never used to..........
[00:29] <deshymers> hmw: I've been through a few of those but I'll go read again
[00:29] <hmw> deshymers: this one seems pretty cool. helped me already.
[00:29] <PC> well my grpachis is ope nsource and it quivers during a live session and install
[00:29] <deshymers> hmw: ok thanks
[00:29] <garrett_> iflema: im not sure, how would i know?
[00:29] <sebsebseb> !patience | PC
[00:30] <iflema> garrett_ in a terminal sudo fdisk -l
[00:30] <GeekSquid> PC: I am not sure that it is directly related to your graphics, there may be other things going on
[00:30] <PC> I have a hard drive failure
[00:30] <PC> but i have another hd
[00:30] <Fallyn> o.o
[00:31] <Lichte> ah i see.....it only gray's out when I click on Offline, but then I have to start Empathy to get logged back in
[00:31] <iflema> garrett_ pastebin the results and paste link here
[00:31] <Iowahc> is there a good application to massedit MP3 Tags, (maybe with autodetection through filename) and organizing the music like iTunes ( i.e. /path/to/music_lib/Interpret/Album/Song.mp3) ?

[00:33] <iflema> garrett_ sorry about that.... youll have to pastebin the results and paste link here
[00:34] <hmw> PC: 1) hd wouldnt do that 2) your CRT might be breaking down slowly. Try to use it on another computer to cross-check. NB: Resolution/Frequency might be related
[00:34] <sweb> i remove my task icons uch as the rythmyc box from gnome
[00:34] <sweb> hopw can irecoover it ?
[00:34] <Iowahc> ActionParsnip: thx, and a application to organize by MP3 Tags?
[00:34] <garrett_> iflema: u see it now?
[00:35] <mkquist> garrett_: post the link for the page
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> Iowahc: not sure on that, usually apps read the tags and organise in the gui
[00:35] <sweb>  i remove my task icon such as the rythmyt  box from gnome
[00:35] <Cryp71c> I have an odd bug where (in UNR) the top bar which previously contained the title bar for the currently focused window, wifi indicator, clock, and shutdown button has gone away. I can't seem to find a way to get it back.
[00:35] <sweb> how can i recover it ?
[00:35] <garrett_> iflema: http://paste.ubuntu.com/428614/
[00:35] <Iowahc> ActionParsnip: I know, but an organized FS would be nice though
[00:35] <iflema> garrett_ goit
[00:35] <hmw> sweb: You lost the list of programs on the bottom panel? If so: right click to the panel, "add to panel" scroll all the way down, drag "window list" to the panel.
[00:35] <duongthaiha> i using empathy and i am wondering how can people type other name at the beginning of the reply. Is there a short cut or i have to type manually
[00:35]  * iflema T :)
[00:36] <sweb> hmw, no the panel that show rythmicbox icon
[00:36] <ActionParsnip> Iowahc: all i know is to manually do it. iwouldn't trust an app to move stuff around personally
[00:36] <sweb> what's name ?
[00:36] <Cryp71c> duongthaiha, my irc client allows me to type the first few characters and then hit "tab" and it auto-fills it for me.
[00:36] <duongthaiha> ohh
[00:36] <freezway> hey i was thinking about upgrading to 10.04, but i heard something about a nvidia bug... will this affect me with a GTS 250?
[00:36] <iflema> garrett_ issuing a      sudo update-grub      in a terminal when in Ubuntu should sort that
[00:36] <hmw> sweb: that might be the notification area perhaps. same story: add to panel...
[00:37] <Iowahc> ActionParsnip: Thanks :)
[00:37] <duongthaiha> Cryp71c: thanks a lot i using it now
[00:37] <garrett_> Iflema: i have already tried that
[00:37] <hmw> freezway: you can always boot a live cd and see for yourself
[00:37] <freezway> true..
[00:37] <sweb> hmw,  notification area  is empty
[00:37] <ActionParsnip> freezway: i havent seen any bug personally
[00:38] <benjamintheyon> What is the easiest way to get the contents of a single folder displayed in a gnome-panel?
[00:38] <chetnick> my conky has black instead of transparent background after upgrade. Any ideas how to fix this? Nothing was changed in .conkyrc.
[00:38] <sweb> hmw, indicator aplet i found it
[00:38] <sweb> thank
[00:38] <hmw> sweb: i am not using 10.04 :( perhaps it is indicator appled, or even something else. Or something is seriously broken. Cant help any firther
[00:38] <ActionParsnip> freezway: i always add the nvidia vpau ppa and install their driver
[00:38] <freezway> hmw, ActionParsnip, i'll download a live cd... my dad wants one anyway... WOOHOO for 1.5Mbps internet!
[00:38] <JetPackTuxedo> so I was in Windows the other day (I don't even remember why) and I noticed that my fan was spinning a lot faster then it ever has in ubuntu. Do I need some sort of special fan driver? Or is there a way to make it spin up more?
[00:39] <AAA_awright> Who keeps changing the UI every six months? I mean, how hard is it just to not change what isn't broken?
[00:39] <hmw> freezway: if you dont have an old computer, you can boot from a USB stick, thats even more cool, since you can add software permanently.
[00:39] <ActionParsnip> freezway: nice, yeah grab it dude, you can install the nvidia driver in the livecd and test too
[00:39] <Cryp71c> Anyone? UNR 10.04, top bar (which holds the clock, wifi indicator, etc.) has gone missing...anyway to restore it?
[00:40] <duongthaiha> i am using ubuntu 64 bit and got the flash 64 installer. I can watch flash on firefox but it doesnt work on chrome. When i go to youtube using chrome it show me missing plug-in. Is there a way to fix it plz? Thanks a lot in advance
[00:40] <ActionParsnip> Cryp71c: right click desktop -> add panel
[00:40] <garrett_> iflema: still there?
[00:40] <Cryp71c> ActionParsnip, right clicking on the desktop only gives "Change Desktop" option.
[00:40] <freezway> hmw, ActionParsnip, My computer's mobo CLAIMS to be able to boot from it... god knows how... Under the boot options i tried all the options... none work.
[00:40] <ActionParsnip> duongthaiha: copy the .so file to /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins
[00:40] <Theravadan> how can i make it so a mouse gesture changes the workspace window?
[00:40] <ActionParsnip> !resetpanel | Cryp71c
[00:40] <iflema> garrett_ interesting..... im just looking over you posts in this room today......
[00:41] <duongthaiha> ActionParsnip: whre can i find the so file plz
[00:41] <hmw> freezway: too bad. one should assume, that the computers already learnt how to boot from thumb drives. :(
[00:41] <ActionParsnip> duongthaiha: how exactly did you install the plugin
[00:41] <ardantus> please help me with this http://paste.ubuntu.com/428616/
[00:41] <garrett_> iflema: oh okay, let me know if u find something please
[00:41] <ActionParsnip> freezway: what type of media are you booting?
[00:41] <ActionParsnip> freezway: did you MD5 test the ISO before using it?
[00:41] <freezway> usb drive... 2gb..
[00:41] <freezway> no...
[00:42] <freezway> but it works from a cd...
[00:42] <duongthaiha> ActionParsnip: i follow this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash#Flash for x86_64 and used the command sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sevenmachines/flash && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install flashplugin64-installer
[00:42] <freezway> ActionParsnip, i burnt the same file to a cd...
[00:42] <iflema> garrett_ the ubuntu version is 10.04 yes?
[00:42] <garrett_> iflema: yes
[00:42] <dassouki> a frensh installation of ubuntu is going into initramfs ... with an alert /dev/disk/by-uuid/abun ch of numbers does not exist. dropping to a shell
[00:42] <hmw> ardantus: i dont know the software you are using, neither did you tell us, what you were trying to accomplish. Perhpaps lsof <path to mount point>  helps you, it will show you, what programs are accessing a drive
[00:43] <iflema> garrett_ clean install or update?
[00:43] <MarcWeber> Is there a command to verify package integrity such as md5 check?
[00:43] <MarcWeber> I'm talking about installed packages only
[00:43] <ActionParsnip> duongthaiha: try: sudo find / -name "libflashplayer.so"
[00:43] <garrett_> iflema: update from 9.10
[00:44] <Cryp71c> ActionParsnip, "gnome-panel: no process found"
[00:44] <mkquist> garrett_: what does it say when you run update-grub?
[00:44] <ActionParsnip> freezway: MD5 testing the ISO is useful, try disabling some hardware in BIOS like sound and LAN
[00:44] <mkquist> garrett_: does it 'see' windows?
[00:44] <duongthaiha> ActionParsnip: I am running it now seem to take a while so plz wait
[00:44] <freezway> ok
[00:44] <ActionParsnip> duongthaiha: well yeah, optical drives are god slow
[00:44] <benjamintheyon> What is the easiest way to get the contents of a single folder displayed in a gnome-panel?
[00:44] <iflema> garrett_ what im tring to get at is what grub version... 1 or 2
[00:45] <hmw> Cryp71c: perhaps you only need to start gnome-panel. Press ALT-F2 and type in   gnome-panel
[00:45] <garrett_> iflema: grub 2
[00:45] <iflema> garrett_ probably 2
[00:45] <atmosphere> I need some help with Secure Shelling
[00:45] <duongthaiha> ActionParsnip: i got one result at [sudo] password for duongthaiha:

[00:45] <duongthaiha> /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so
[00:45] <jrib> atmosphere: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[00:45] <FloodBot1> duongthaiha: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:45] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: you can add a folder view (its in the right click -> add item thing) the default is home but you can change the pointed to folder
[00:45] <Stevenwaldon> hey, is there someone who may know why Ubuntu 10.04 keeps freezing at the load screen?
[00:45] <duongthaiha> ActionParsnip: do you know which one should I copy
[00:45] <ardantus> hmw: I try to make ubuntu 10.04 templates, i am follow from http://blog.bodhizazen.net/linux/ubuntu-10-04-openvz-templates/
[00:46] <ActionParsnip> duongthaiha: ok then run: sudo cp /usr/share/ubufox/plugins/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins
[00:46] <Cryp71c> hmw, alt + f2 doesn't do anything -_-
[00:46] <freezway> atmosphere, what iis ur problem?
[00:46] <atmosphere> My problem is I am unable to secure shell to my ubuntu 10.04 server unless I have an active session logged in locally to the server, I believe this is due to my home drive being encrypted, anyone have an idea how to work around this?
[00:46] <chetnick> my conky has black instead of transparent background after upgrade. Any ideas how to fix this? Nothing was changed in .conkyrc.
[00:46] <hmw> Cryp71c: uhm. you said, when you right click the desktop, only a thing shows up. is tat right? only one menu entry?
[00:46] <Stevenwaldon> cryp, are you tlaking to me?
[00:47] <freezway> atmosphere, not a clue :/ sorry
[00:47] <hmw> !tab | Stevenwaldon
[00:47] <PC> Should i try another monitor?
[00:47] <atmosphere> :(
[00:47] <garrett_> iflema: grub 2
[00:47] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: is it named Add to Panel->"folder view"? because I don't see that option among the many.
[00:47] <Cryp71c> Stevenwaldon, anyone who will assist me :) but no
[00:47] <PC> I have a lcd Sylcvian monitor
[00:47] <iflema> garrett_ i suggest ya get ya winblows cd and go into recovery mode and fixmbr fixboot to test if winblow is ok.... then reinstall grub after.... actually i reccomend you get ride of winblows all together but.....
[00:47] <wildbat_laptop> garrett_, try http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector
[00:47] <Cryp71c> hmw, yes, I only get "Change Desktop Background" when I initially installed UNR, I did have this top toolbar.
[00:47] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: sounds likely, go for it. You can always remove it
[00:47] <cowk_sunyi> hey.. sorry for this direct question. I just confused how i can make my FD be writeable when I'm running my Lucy thru FD. Is it any way to make it writeable?
[00:48] <duongthaiha> ActionParsnip: it work like magic :D thanks a lot for your help. I am quite new to linux so ... :D
[00:48] <hmw> Chetic: sounds like your graphic card was not recognized by lucid lynx. do your panels/windows have shadows? if not, you need to find out "how to enable compiz", might be impossible perhaps
[00:48] <atmosphere> I think it has to do with the fact my drive is not mounted until I'm logged in locally so it's not able to see my public key...
[00:48] <ActionParsnip> duongthaiha: Linux isn't hard at all, just think logically and the answer is there
[00:48] <garrett_> iflema:i will try that, i will come back to let u know
[00:48] <hmw> Cryp71c: that sounds very weird. i dont know UNR tough. I assume, you alread rebooted?
[00:48] <atmosphere> but I can't be the only one who wants his home drive encrypted, but still wants to use a keypair for secure shelling
[00:48] <cmc> hello does anyone know how to enable two finger scrolling on the asus 1005ha in ubuntu 10.04
[00:48] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: What I'm saying is I don't see an option under the "Add to Panel" dialog that references a folder or folder view. Possibly a plug-in or something that I don't have...?
[00:48] <PC> should i use another moniroe hmw
[00:48] <Cryp71c> hmw, yes, several times :(
[00:48] <Cryp71c> ActionParsnip, any idea?
[00:49] <wulfy> iflema, not exactly helpfull suggestions to tell a user to drop another os ...... end of day each and every os out there achives at least some part of what is needed by the user regardless of other peoples opinions
[00:49] <freezway> while im here... how could i make it so i'd have both 64 and 32 bit ubuntu on my flash drive?
[00:49] <jrib> atmosphere: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/encfs/+bug/319909 is related (has a workaround)
[00:49] <Cryp71c> ActionParsnip, it appears I don't have gnome-panel even installed, attempting to run it from terminal gives me such info.
[00:49] <hmw> PC: try a healthy monitor, that can display the resoluition, your ubuntu was trying to display. Flickering is usually a bad sign for CRTs
[00:49] <iflema> garrett_ that ok with me........ have a looking supergrub disk aswell.... will boot ubuntu and maybe windows
[00:49] <ActionParsnip> Cryp71c: then install it, sounds like you removed it
[00:49] <PC> yea
[00:49] <PC> Ill try it
[00:49] <dassouki> hmw: there doesn't seem to be a problem in the hdd, live cd works fine too
[00:50] <PC> Thanks hmw
[00:50] <EntityReborn> Hm.
[00:50] <Cryp71c> ActionParsnip, ah hell, I removed evolution and several of its things without paying much attention.
[00:50] <atmosphere> jrib ... that sounds like it should work!!, I'll give it a go... how did you find that so fast
[00:50] <jrib> atmosphere: see also http://superuser.com/questions/61057/ssh-with-authorized-keys-to-an-ubuntu-system-with-encrypted-homedir and https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/362427/comments/12
[00:50] <ActionParsnip> Cryp71c: yeah removing evolution does that (very weird)
[00:50] <atmosphere> jrib i've googled that hundreds of times already :\
[00:50] <iflema> wulfy whatever...... it sounds like winblows is screwed need to verify if its so important
[00:50] <EntityReborn> In 10.04, the close and minimise buttons are on the left, instead of the right. Any way to switch this and keep the same theme?
[00:50] <dominicdinada> ok 4 people in webmin yay!
[00:50] <acerimmer> Cryp71c: that necessarily means your data is gone.  Check your home folder for hidden fiels
[00:50] <hmw> Cryp71c: You can try creating another user. If that does not help or you cannot do it, then: do you have the option of re-installing? that would be my next step.
[00:51] <ActionParsnip> !controls | EntityReborn
[00:51] <jorozco> I've tried k3b to burn ubuntu-10.04-server-i386.iso. It burned the image successfully, even verification passed after burning.  Still, when I try to install Ubuntu Server 10.04, the integrity fails at Packages.gz. Has anyone else experienced this issue?
 wulfy whatever...... it sounds like winblows is screwed need to verify if its so important
[00:51] <jrib> atmosphere: I googled "ssh encrypted home"
[00:51] <EntityReborn> winblows is ALWAYS screwed
[00:51] <ActionParsnip> EntityReborn: there are thousands of guides for that exact thing, did you not websearch any ata ll??
[00:51] <cmc> Does anybody know how to enable two finger scrolling in ubuntu 10.04 at all?
[00:51] <EntityReborn> ActionParsnip, as always, thanks :)
[00:51] <funkyHat> MarcWeber: for what purpose? There are a few things which perform similar functions, debsums is one, tripwire and aide log md5sums for the whole system (or as much of it as you want) and can be quite useful as intrusion detection tools
[00:51] <Cryp71c> To a reinstall!
[00:51] <wulfy> sigh is it so hard for people to understand something like be objective?
[00:51] <MarcWeber> funkyHat: debsums
[00:51] <atmosphere> jrib: thank you very much this looks very promising
[00:51] <atmosphere> THANKS!
[00:51] <Cryp71c> Thanks gents.
[00:51] <jrib> atmosphere: yep, seems like it should work, good luck
[00:52] <ActionParsnip> Cryp71c: sudo apt-get --reinstall install gnome-panel
[00:52] <hmw> dassouki: in this case, just try another go for the install. You might get lucky. I had that 2 times out of very many installs already, strange "hickup" when installing. Try to send some positive karma waves onto your pc first ;-)
[00:52] <funkyHat> MarcWeber: yes, that is the name of the package.
[00:52] <MarcWeber> funkyHat: I mounted the same partition by accident twice. I get some segfaults running terraView. So I want to ensure that my double mounting didn't cause too much troube.
[00:52] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: What I'm saying is I don't see an option under the "Add to Panel" dialog that references a folder or folder view. Possibly a plug-in or something that I don't have...? sorry I can see you're crazy busy.
[00:52] <Cryp71c> ActionParsnip, well...if only it were that simple, I have to muck around my wireless to get it to pickup a signal.
[00:52] <Cryp71c> ActionParsnip, network tools doesn't seem very useful, what's a wifi manager I can launch from terminal to make this simple?
[00:52] <ActionParsnip> Cryp71c: use the installation CD as a repo
[00:53] <silvernode> is there any way to get the latest versions of software over the next 6 months rather than simply bug and security fixes?
[00:53] <Cryp71c> ActionParsnip, oooo, that's nice.
[00:53] <JetPackTuxedo> Has anyone had any weird problems with glipper?
[00:53] <jrib> silvernode: no, ubuntu is not a rolling release distro
[00:53] <Cryp71c> silvernode, you can update the individual packages / applications as they make their updates available.
[00:53] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: if you right click some empty panel space you will see add to panel
[00:53] <Grexeo> where do I put UpStart scripts in Lucid?
[00:53] <hmw> silvernode: another linux distribution. Ubuntu isnt very "bleeding edge"
[00:53] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: That's not my issue. I can get there. I do not see anything about a folder within that dialog.
[00:53] <jrib> Grexeo: /etc/init iirc
[00:53] <Cryp71c> ActionParsnip, how can I use the cd as a repo for installations?
[00:54] <cmc> is there a way to enable two finger scrolling in ubuntu when the checkbox has been grayed out?
[00:54] <silvernode> What's a good way to make it bleeding edge?
[00:54] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: http://images.howtoforge.com/images/ubuntu_system_panel/big/2.jpg
[00:54] <jrib> silvernode: use a different distro.  Ubuntu is not the distro for you if you want bleeding edge
[00:54] <ActionParsnip> Cryp71c: look in software sources in administration
[00:54] <Grexeo> jrib: thanks
[00:54] <dominicdinad> Can someone give me a hand or answer a question in regards to samba and ubuntu ?
[00:54] <jrib> dominicdinad: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[00:54] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: That's not my issue. I see that option. I can add many things. I cannot find a way to add a FOLDER specifically.
[00:54] <acerimmer> !commands
[00:54] <hmw> silvernode: http://distrowatch.com/
[00:55] <JetPackTuxedo> Pretty much everytime I start my computer I get an alert that glipper has crashed. Any ideas?
[00:55] <jrib> silvernode: if you like ubuntu, I would recommend debian testing or maybe testing/unstable mix if you are comfortable doing that
[00:55] <chrometiger> does anyone know how to install "x3 reunion" on 10.04   i keep getting this error when trying to run the installer with wine "Setup.exe is not marked as an executable , if this was downloaded or copied from an untrusted source it may be dangerous to run"
[00:55] <YankDownUnder> Flipper has crashed? Oh No!
[00:55] <wulfy> chrometiger,  right click properties permisons click allow to run as executible
[00:56] <chrometiger> wulfy: its on a cd
[00:56] <Trellian> would this be the right place to get some help with a problem i'm having with upstart not setting runlevel on lucid?
[00:56] <PinWiz> I have audio in all users except one. Any ideas to fix it?
[00:56] <Cryp71c> ActionParsnip, this netbook has no cd-rom drive, and I've already mounted the thumb drive that has the source. How can I trick the software sources into thinking this is a cdrom?
[00:56] <shane2peru_> JetPackTuxedo, glipper has had problems for a while now, there are fixes, however it isn't simple.  Best thing to do is install parcellite
[00:56] <wulfy> chrometiger, no clue then :) normaly i run things right off the hdd
[00:57] <silvernode> jrib, I come from Arch Linux. I was a loyal Ubuntu user for many years before. With the latest release of Ubuntu I am impressed. I was simply trying to see if it was possible to maybe add a repo or something to get the latest and greatest.
[00:57] <chrometiger> does anyone know how to install "x3 reunion" on 10.04   i keep getting this error when trying to run the installer with wine "Setup.exe is not marked as an executable , if this was downloaded or copied from an untrusted source it may be dangerous to run"

[00:57] <k0d3g3ar> ne1 here upgraded to ubuntu 10 and running multi-head video on Nvidia?
[00:57] <jrib> silvernode: just not how ubuntu works.  You could run the development version of ubuntu if you want, but it breaks and is meant for developers and testers
[00:58] <genii> Gah WINE
[00:58] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: just fired up my desktop system (adding stuff to panels seems hard in UNR) and indeed it isnt there
[00:58] <acerimmer> silvernode: maybe run that bleeding edge stuff in vbox?
[00:58] <silvernode> jrib, I was using 10.04 beta for a while so I know what you mean.
[00:58] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: Ok at least I'm not simple. Haha...any ideas? It doesn't appear built-in, do you know of a method?
[00:59] <silvernode> hmw, I have tried over 100 distros on distrowatch and I came back to arch every time. Although Ubuntu still strikes a little love with me still.
[00:59] <JetPackTuxedo> shane2peru, is parcellite basically the same thing?
[00:59] <ActionParsnip> Cryp71c: i think if you use the apt-cdrom (or whatever the command is) then you can add it as a repo. There will be guides around on how to add it
[00:59] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: let me websearch
[00:59] <jrib> silvernode: honestly, there's not much point in a rolling release.  You probably have a handful of apps that you like and want the latest version of (for some reason; I won't go into that).  If they are popular you can find ppas for them and if they aren't you can maintain them yourself.  So you could use ubuntu that way
[00:59] <shane2peru_> JetPackTuxedo, yes, it is the same thing
[00:59] <shane2peru_> JetPackTuxedo, runs a little more stable though on the system
[01:00] <hmw> silvernode: I love Ubuntu.  I can't decide. It's support is really awesome.
[01:00] <JetPackTuxedo> shane2peru, alright, thanks!
[01:00] <shane2peru_> JetPackTuxedo, no problem
[01:00] <dassouki> would ext4 and swap5 b my linux partitions
[01:00] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: Thanks a bunch! The only thing I turned up was an ability to browse folders; I'm more interested in displaying a single folder's contents. I could do it via launchers but I'd have to update that manually.
[01:00] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: so what do you exactly need
[01:01] <shane2peru_> hmw, silvernode  I too love ubuntu and then something breaks or something, but I just decided I'm going to stick with it, and keep a good running system, and I quit bouncing around. :)
[01:01] <benjamintheyon> I need to display the contents of a single folder in a panel, without having to simply create launchers for each of its items and manually update those when the folder contents change.
[01:01]  * acerimmer waves hello
[01:01] <hmw> shane2peru_ i want something with less magic. Perhaps I will build an LFS again.
[01:02] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: you could use a gdesklet but it would display on the desktop and not the panel
[01:02] <shane2peru_> hmw, enjoy, I just ran out of time to keep doing that. :)  that is what draws me back every time, simple have a desktop running in about 40min.
[01:02] <hmw> !hi | acerimmer
[01:02] <silvernode> hmw, When I tried Arch Linux I have to admit I was confused. Over time Arch Grew on me. Especially the AUR. There are so many programs in the AUR that I cannot find in Ubuntu.  That's strange, I feel like what I'm trying here is not that bizarre to not exist. But I suppose I'll look into gdesklet and get back to ya if I have questions. Thanks!
[01:03] <hmw> acerimmer: might be better to do that in another channel. try /join #ubuntu-offtopic or creat your own room
[01:03]  * iflema smoke me a kipper.... ill be back for breakfast....
[01:03]  * iflema what a guy...
[01:03] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: it did used to exist
[01:03] <acerimmer> iflema: FISH!
[01:04] <chrometiger> does anyone know how to install a windows app "off a install CD"   i keep getting this error when trying to run the installer with wine "Setup.exe is not marked as an executable , if this was downloaded or copied from an untrusted source it may be dangerous to run"
[01:04] <Trellian> can someone help me debug an upstart issue i'm having where the runlevel isnot properly set?
[01:04] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: Weird! seems like a no-brainer to me. Maybe a different DE or something. I'll check out the gdesklets. thanks.
[01:05] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: http://code.google.com/p/gnome-menu-file-browser-applet/

[01:06] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: I saw that and it's a little different than my goal. I was hoping to replace icons/files on my desktop with an auto-hiding panel to clean things up, but it doesn't look like that's possible. I really appreciate your wild goose chase though haha
[01:06] <MadWombat> how do I run programs installed by gem as root?
[01:07] <liuchong> wow,so many person
[01:07] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: seems to fit the bill from what I can see
[01:07] <skyrider> Hello fellows. Recenly I've downloaded DVD ISO images of Lucid from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com and checked their sha256 hash sums - everything is correct. But when I check the authenticity of SHA256SUMS file with gpg - it says file have BAD signature from "Ubuntu CD Image Automatic Signing Key".
[01:07] <skyrider> Am I doing something wrong with checking the signature? Or SHA256SUMS.gpg file on ubuntu mirrors really did not match the SHA256SUMS file hosted there? Did anyone except me tried to check the signature?
[01:07] <skyrider> Without checking the signature we can't trust in authenticity of ISO images.
[01:07] <skyrider> Full output of sha256sum, wget and gpg commands you can see here: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/ECyj7zaF
[01:07] <bastid_raZor> benjamintheyon: cairo-dock  possibly.. it has an auto-hide feature plus is a dock for your launchers
[01:07] <Lichte> what is the command to show where all the files for a package are installed ??
[01:08] <MadWombat> if I do sudo rake, I get command not found, I added /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin to root's .bashrc, I removed evn_reset from sudoers
[01:08] <ActionParsnip> chrometiger: you may need to copy the data to your HDD to set the executable bit
[01:08] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: In all honesty, it's an aesthetics thing. I just wanted a single panel to monitor everything in a particular folder, and display an icon for each in the panel, with that panel auto-hiding. I feel bad that you're still looking for me, I'm being picky and I know it. haha
[01:08] <skyrider> Lichte: "dpkg -L packagename"
[01:08] <benjamintheyon> bastid_raZor: I'll look into cairo-dock, thanks
[01:08] <Lichte> thanks skyrider
[01:08] <dpratt71> I'm trying to run a game under Ubuntu running on VirtualBox; perhaps not surprisingly, I get an error: OpenGL Warning: XGetVisualInfo returned 0 visuals for 9a5a0e0
[01:08] <MadWombat> I can always do sudo su -, but it seems subversive
[01:08] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: well if its not right you won't install it so makes sense
[01:08] <ActionParsnip> MadWombat: use: sudo -i    instead
[01:08] <MadWombat> ActionParsnip: tried that, same result
[01:09] <ActionParsnip> MadWombat: where do the apps get installed to?
[01:09] <dpratt71> is there any hope that I could reconfigure something and get it working, or should I just give up?
[01:09] <MadWombat> ActionParsnip: /var/lib/gems/1.8
[01:09] <Trellian> MadWombat: it could also be that the program you want to start is not in your current users' $PATH, try running it with the full pathname
[01:09] <MadWombat> it is
[01:09] <siropio> hi, i want ti install joomla on localhost but i have LAMPP so i dont have a htdocs but my path is in /var/www/ so i put there the joomla files but when i typed http://localhost/joomla/ the installation page didnt came up
[01:09] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: That's exactly it. I just want all icons off my desktop, but still have easy and aesthetically pleasing access to them. I'll come up with something that suits me, thanks again for all your help!
[01:09] <siropio> any ideas?
[01:09] <FloodBot1> siropio: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:10] <k0d3g3ar> dpratt71, have you checked if your game will run under Wine?
[01:10] <gianluca> !it
[01:10] <chrometiger> ActionParsnip:  i was hoping for a work around, i was going to do that as last resort
[01:10] <hmw> !patience | dpratt71
[01:10] <MadWombat> Trellian: I checked, it is in the path
[01:10] <genii> dpratt71: Applications which require direct hardware access are probably not best run under an emulator
[01:10] <bastid_raZor> benjamintheyon: look into 'shortcuts' or 'quick browser' plugins
[01:10] <Guest58229> slm
[01:10] <benjamintheyon> bastid_raZor: Is this for cairo-dock or gnome-panel?
[01:10] <bastid_raZor> benjamintheyon: cairo-dock
[01:10] <Trellian> MadWombat: i assume it's also chmod +x ?
[01:10] <ActionParsnip> chrometiger: the file is read only so you cannot change the files unfortunately
[01:11] <hmw> dpratt71: also don't assume, that everyone has read the text, you are referring to with "someone knows it?". Keep posting your issue every now and then (perhaps something between 5 and 15 minutes) while you try finding a soluition on google.
[01:11] <MadWombat> Trellian: yes
[01:11] <benjamintheyon> bastid_raZor: Ok will do. One last -- does cairo-dock play nice with gnome/gnome-panel?
[01:11] <ActionParsnip> hmw: or any other search engine ;)
[01:12] <hmw> ActionParsnip: oh, i almost forgot, that there are some. my bad.
[01:12] <bastid_raZor> benjamintheyon: yes, it has the ability to replace the bottom panel with some of its plugins also the top if you desire. it is a do-all dock.
[01:12] <chrometiger> ActionParsnip: got it finally    in terminal  switch user,  then            wine "drag exe from cd into ternimal"     works
[01:12] <ActionParsnip> hmw: thats why i ALWAYS say websearch. I think the phrase "google it" and suchlike is constrictive and immature
[01:12] <benjamintheyon> bastid_raZor: Beautiful. As soon as I get file sharing set up on this thing I'll give it a whirl!
[01:13] <dpratt71> hmw: I am a bit confused by your responses
[01:13] <hmw> ActionParsnip: yea. i'll try memorize that phrase of yours
[01:13] <ActionParsnip> chrometiger: switch use to what?
[01:13] <woodyjlw> I do not want to dual boot but I have three 250 gig hard drives, one is sata and two are ide, if I unplug the windows 7 on the sata and install ubuntu on the ide and tell the bios to boot from sata first I could still F8 and pick the ide ubuntu to boot to that one when I want to right???
[01:13] <chrometiger> root
[01:13] <djustice> my xorg.0.log has "EE: Failed to Initilize GLX (NVIDIA compatible driver not found)" <<- and i dont even have an nvidia card... intel. help?
[01:13] <acerimmer> drpratt71: don't forget the ubuntu forum
[01:13] <ActionParsnip> chrometiger: then it will need to be ran as root as it will install to /root/.wine and not /home/$USER/.wine
[01:14] <Trellian> woodyjlw: that's correct
[01:14] <hmw> dpratt71: sorry, i was just confused about your question "can someome help me with that" and i didnt know, what "that" you were refering to. ;-) also, there is no use in asking ever 10 seconds, people here tend to help, if they can. Welcome to Ubuntu, btw.
[01:14] <genii> woodyjlw: Much depends on how the bios reports what drives it sees to the operating system
[01:14] <ActionParsnip> woodyjlw: techically all drives are IDE, you mean PATA
[01:14] <sweb> rythmbox not add file
[01:14] <sweb> why ?
[01:14] <benjamintheyon> Anyone have a link to a great simple Samba tutorial for sharing between two Ubuntu machines on a LAN?  Much easier
[01:15] <Trellian> benjamintheyon: for simple filesharing i would use NFS instead of samba, it is just that much easier to configure
[01:15] <hmw> benjamintheyon: one needs to set a smb password somehow. weird thing. perhaps this helps: http://<IP_ADDRESS>/micro-cms/self-pc/howto/ubuntu-linux/network/gnome-file-sharing.html
[01:15] <woodyjlw> genii, I know . I would have to reconfigure bios when done
[01:16] <mdg> Hello!  Anyone here use moc to listen to shoutcast streams?  I just installed streamtuner and it closes when I try to listen to a shoutcast stream - any ideas?
[01:16] <woodyjlw> ActionParsnip,  yes that too
[01:16] <bastid_raZor> !samba > benjamintheyon .. follow the links
[01:16] <benjamintheyon> Trellian: That'll be perfect - does it allow for Windows file sharing down the line? That is an eventual goal. If not, I should probably start with Samba?
[01:16] <dpratt71> hmw: it was intended as a two-part question: state the circumstances and then ask the question; apologies if I annoyed anyone
[01:16] <benjamintheyon> hmw: I'll take a peak at that, thank you.
[01:16] <benjamintheyon> bastid_raZor: Thanks!
[01:16] <hmw> dpratt71: you didnt annoy me, i was trying to be helpful.
[01:16] <hipitihop> in karmic I was running the Zopier Communicator (alsa) SIP client but I found I could not have skype and zoiper running as they would steal each others audio. There is also an OSS version of zoiper, so now that I'm on lucid and about to re-install it which would be recommended ?
[01:16] <Trellian> benjamintheyon: well, yes and no... windows does have support for nfs, but if your ultimate goal is to also use windows clients then i would advice not to use nfs
[01:17] <sweb> djustice, any idea ?
[01:17] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+question/80811    has a sample of my smb.conf file, you will need to run: sudo smbpasswd -a $USER     to add a samba account if you are sharing your home folder some. Just paste the snippet in /etc/samba/smb.conf and reboot, you can now access the samba share nice, obviously chamge user names and such as you need
[01:17] <woodyjlw> I love 10.04 but still cant get my gaming where I want it with my ati 2600 hd.   the proprietary ati driver still sucks. unless there is a better open source one
[01:17] <woodyjlw> I would love to boot MS completely
[01:17] <benjamintheyon> Trellian: OK. I do have a windows server I'd eventually like to connect to. But maybe I'll just throw together NFS real quick to get some music on my brothers brand new Ubuntu machine. Thanks!!
[01:18] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: Hmm that's almost over my head. I'll save that message and review it when I understand. I think I'll start with NFS for the time being. Thanks for the help
[01:18] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: the page pretty much shows how to configure samba :). You will need to install samba too: sudo apt-get install samba
[01:18] <Trellian> benjamintheyon: if it's just to quickly exchange some files, you could also just scp them to your brothers' machine
[01:19] <sweb> i cannot load network derive with rythmbox please help me
[01:19] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: if you read the page its actually hugely simple :)
[01:19] <sweb> add file add folder not work in rythmbox
[01:19] <mdg> Hello!  Anyone here use moc to listen to shoutcast streams?  I just installed streamtuner and it closes when I try to listen to a shoutcast stream - any ideas?
[01:19] <benjamintheyon> Trellian: I'm not sure what that is. I'd like to keep it permanently available.
[01:19] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: Ok you've persuaded me to take the plunge. Samba it is. Hahaha
[01:19] <ActionParsnip> sweb: mount it and then tell rhythmnbox to use the mount point folder
[01:20] <dpratt71> it may also be worth mentioning that this is an open source game (and compiles under Linux) and I am running a VirtualBox VM with hardware acceleration enabled
[01:20] <woodyjlw> is there a better way to configure my ati 2600hd without using the hardware drivers to fetch it?  I still get a lot of screen tearing in WOW
[01:20] <Trellian> benjamintheyon: scp is like copy, but then over the network
[01:20] <dpratt71> I should say "3D acceleration enabled"
[01:21] <benjamintheyon> Trellian: I see...
[01:21] <Trellian> woodyjlw: are you running wow in directx or opengl mode?
[01:21] <walt1> eed some upgrade help.  Can I upgrade from ubuntu 9.10 to kubuntu 10.04
[01:21] <sweb> ActionParsnip? how can mount 'smb://vashka-desktop/1tb/'  ?
[01:21] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: whats also cool is if you use the text file config you can ssh over, edit the file in nano / vi etc, restart the service and BAM another share
[01:21] <hipitihop> benjamintheyon, for a longer term and better solution, consider looking at something like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeezebox_Server
[01:21] <ActionParsnip> sweb: you can add samba mounts in /etc/fstab
[01:21] <mdg> Anyone know why streamtuner keeps shutting down when I try to play a shoutcast stream?
[01:22] <ActionParsnip> sweb: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/configure-a-system-to-automount-a-samba-share-with-etcfstab/
[01:22] <crdlb> mdg: have run it in a terminal to see if it prints an error?
[01:22] <woodyjlw> Trellian,  umm not sure, but I bet in direct x... lol I bet that would be why. I will try to run in opengl then. I bet that would fix it
[01:22] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: In other words remotely add shares? Also real quick if I have a partition called "Storage" mounted, what would the terminal path be to that?
[01:22] <ActionParsnip> mdg: launch it from terminal, the output may help
[01:22] <mdg> okay...
[01:22] <benjamintheyon> hipitihop: Hmm...I'll check it out!
[01:22] <Trellian> woodyjlw: from the top of my head you use the '-opengl' switch to start Wow.exe
[01:22] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: indeed, and you wont need silly vnc to do it either ;)
[01:22] <djustice> sweb: nope. just permissions. what does 'add' mean? add the file's location to the current playlist? bc it doesnt support that particular file protocol i guess... dunno. i dont use it.

[01:26] <Jamie-UoA> Hi guys
[01:26] <Jamie-UoA> just a quick one I hope. How do you add fonts to the selection in system? I've got the packages installed but I only see the installed one when I go through. Plus open office has all the menus in what looks like winddings?
[01:26] <alirio> when i choose install, it does not detect my mouse or my keyboard
[01:26] <djustice> crdlb: sweet boobs!! thanks!
[01:26] <Trellian> the system boots, but stalls halfway during the boot process, if i then ssh into the box the runlevel command returns unknown, manually doing telinit2 will compleet the boot process
[01:26] <sweb> ActionParsnip, how can i affect fstab change

[01:27] <ActionParsnip> sweb: that doesnt make sense
[01:27] <djustice> maco: ha! sorry :) i was flustered.
[01:27] <hmw> There is a lot of really good articles on [wiki|www].ubuntu.com, but I feel somewhat lost in there. I wish for a "manual to the manual" - some overview, more than just an index. Is there something like that?
[01:27] <hipitihop> sweb, sudo mount -a
[01:27] <alket> I have a list of city names in text file seperated by new line, how can I sort them Aphabeticaly ?
[01:27] <ActionParsnip> sweb: you add the fstab entry and the share will mount at boot
[01:27] <microhaxo> Does 10.04 support trim native???
[01:28] <djustice> stil tho. i nvr installed those nvidia pkgz. so sumbodyz fail.
[01:28] <Trellian> microhaxo: unfortunately, no
[01:28] <Plugh> alket: Use sort
[01:28] <Trellian> microhaxo: you need kernel 2.6.33 at the minimum for full TRIM support
[01:28] <hackel> Since doing a fresh install of 10.04, I can no longer shut down my computer (it always reboots) nor suspend or hibernate.  Any suggestions for troubleshooting this?  I've got a Dell M1530.
[01:28] <microhaxo> Trellian: any workarounds?
[01:28] <alket> Plugh, which program, im in Gedit and OO.org doesn't display text correctly
[01:29] <Plugh> alket: the command line program called 'sort'
[01:29] <alket> Plugh, how to do that
[01:29] <awaad> Can any one tell me the path of the default backgrounds of Ubuntu 10.04, please ?????????????????
[01:29] <Plugh> alket: sort < file-to-be-sorted > sorted-file

[01:32] <hmw> tophyr: install sysv-rc-conf and remove gdm for RunLevel 2
[01:33] <hmw> tophyr: thus, after booting, you end up on the console. init 3 will further boot up to gnome
[01:33] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/428639/plain/
[01:33] <tophyr> hmw is there anything other than gdm that needs to get cut out of RL2? if not i can just do that by hand

[01:33] <Jamie-UoA> ok I've downloaded fontpackages (MSCore) but I can't select them in Appearance. Plus open office has all the menus in what looks like windings
[01:33] <mdg> anyone here even using moc?
[01:34] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: let me read ;)
[01:34] <david_> anyone have an easy way to run ubuntu from ram?
[01:34] <Trellian> sweb: you probably need to set the filesystem type to cifs
[01:34] <hmw> tophyr: that would prevent gdm from start. i think, this is what you wanted.
[01:34] <tophyr> hmw cool, yeah pretty much
[01:34] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: can you pastebin /etc/samba/smb.conf please
[01:34] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: For the record I copied and pasted directly from the forum post you had made.
[01:34] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: Okie.
[01:35] <sweb> Trellian, cifs also in fstab not work
[01:35] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/428640/ "MY CUSTOM SHARE" is where my edits are just to save you a few minutes.
[01:35] <Trellian> sweb: does it work on the commandline?
[01:35] <ActionParsnip> sweb: you may need to make a credentials file and give that to authenticate you
[01:35] <sweb> [ 1548.724571]  CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -22
[01:36] <sweb> ActionParsnip, i mkdir /mnt/1tb
[01:37] <lucas-arg> hello, how can i downgrade lucid-proposed updates?
[01:37] <sweb> it's my new fstabline
[01:37] <sweb> //vashka-desktop/1tb /mnt/1tb      cifs   username=xxx,password=xxx 0 0
[01:37] <Guest69823> how can I change my terminal to vt220 for instance?
[01:37] <PC> How can i make my mv920 monitor to work on ubuntu?
[01:37] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: looks ok, give it a reboot, see if its sharing nice
[01:38] <ActionParsnip> pc: run: lspci | grep -i vga    websearch for the output to find guides
[01:38] <Guest69823> PC, what do you mean, "How can I make it work on Ubuntu?
[01:38] <Guest69823> woops
[01:38] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: Ok I will. Real quick, if it's ignoring those parameters there is no need for them to be there eh?
[01:38] <lucas-arg> is it possible to downgrade lucid-proposed updates?
[01:38] <hmw> Guest69823: i don't know, but you can configure Backspace and Delete Key in the gnome terminal under Edit / Profile Preferences / Compatibilirty
[01:38] <ActionParsnip> benjamintheyon: not seen that before and the items added are in the samba manual, strange
[01:39] <Trellian> sweb: try the command ' mount -v -t cifs -ousername=xxx,password=xxx //vashka-desktop/1tb /mnt/1tb ' dows that wor?k
[01:39] <benjamintheyon> ActionParsnip: Ok. I'm gonna reboot, eat dinner, and Ill be back. Thanks again for your help.
[01:39] <Guest69823> hmw, i miss the point of that
[01:39] <PC> No i meant ubuntu work on my mv 920 MONITOR not the computer and on my lcd its not shakey or fuzzy
[01:39] <david_> anyone have an easy way to run ubuntu from ram?
[01:39] <Jamie-UoA> Hey just a quick one I hope. How do you add fonts to the selection in system? I've got the packages installed but I only see the installed one when I go through. Plus open office has all the menus in what looks like winddings?
[01:40] <ActionParsnip> david_: the liveCD does it
[01:40] <david_> oo cool
[01:40] <hmw> Guest69823: i guessed, that your wanting to make it behave like vt220 might only be an issue with those key, i didnt find anything else by my quick look throught the options.#
[01:40] <ActionParsnip> david_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM
[01:40] <CloudMonkee> anyone know why vmware workstation 7.0 isn't suppported in 10.04?
[01:40] <Trellian> can someone help me debug an upstart issue i'm having where the runlevel is not properly set? it's not because there's no 'lo' entry in /etc/network/interfaces as many launchpad bugs state.
[01:40] <Guest69823> hmw, understood
[01:40] <Trellian> the system boots, but stalls halfway during the boot process, if i then ssh into the box the runlevel command returns unknown, manually doing telinit2 will compleet the boot process
[01:41] <sweb> Trellian, mount error: could not resolve address for vashka-desktop: No address associated with hostname
[01:41] <Trellian> sweb: try substituting vashka-desktop with it's ipadres and see if it works then
[01:41] <hmw> Guest69823:  i suppose you will have to mess around with the shell configuraion itself then
[01:42] <Guest69823> hmw, any other benefit to using  a terminal other than xterm?
[01:42] <sweb> in nautilus `smb://vashka-desktop/1tb/` is open i can open files
[01:42] <sweb> read it
[01:43] <Trellian> sweb: nautilus does some extra funk to resolve netbios names
[01:43] <hmw> Guest69823: i am not certain, if i understood that. Anyhow, I have only been using the Gnome Terminal or the Console so far.
[01:43] <ActionParsnip> sweb: i'd add an entry in /etc/hosts and you will be ok, set the sharing server to a static IP to avoid issues. It will also make the name resolve faster
[01:44] <pad_s> is it better to install 32-bit or 64-bit on a 64-bit capable laptop ?
[01:44] <sweb> offff with ubuntu 9.10 i did not have this stupid problem
[01:44] <ActionParsnip> pad_s: depends, how much ram have you got and what is the main use?
[01:44] <k0d3g3ar> pad_s, depends if you have hardware on that machine that needs drivers that don't have 64 bit support really
[01:44] <iAccepted> Guys i need help.
[01:45] <ActionParsnip> sweb: log a bug then
[01:45] <hiexpo> !ask
[01:45] <k0d3g3ar> iAccepted, don't we all :)  You should see my mortgage!
[01:45] <hmw> Guest69823: what are you trying to accomplish?
[01:45] <hackel> Since doing a fresh install of 10.04, I can no longer shut down my computer (it always reboots) nor suspend or hibernate.  Any suggestions for troubleshooting this?  I've got a Dell M1530.
[01:45] <uLinux> hello
[01:45] <sweb> ActionParsnip, last question how can i know which file that rythmbox can open ?
[01:46] <sweb> with wich premission
[01:46] <uLinux> im updating ubuntu and now it shows this message about Grub
[01:46] <Klick> Hi
[01:46] <hmw> hackel: sudo init 0 should shut down. your symptoms sound somewhat weird, perhaps it is a BIOS issue?
[01:46] <iAccepted> k0d3g3ar: which program should i use for perl language.
[01:46] <pad_s> ActionParsnip, 4GB RAM, main use programming, watching movie and online videos
[01:46] <ActionParsnip> sweb: it will run as your user so that will dictate the permission. I dont uderstand your question
[01:46] <uLinux> "keep the local version currently installed"
[01:46] <StevenX> Hello. Can anyone help me out. I am looking for a program that allowed me to do multiple things. One of the things that it allowed me to do was to start up firefox typing only "fi". It would bring up a "window" kinda of.
[01:46] <uLinux> i just want the new kernel
[01:46] <ActionParsnip> pad_s: 64bit then as you have more ram than 32bit can address (without pae)
[01:46] <Klick> I need to take a bootable thumbdrive and convert to an iso file any utils that would help?
[01:47] <hackel> hmw: I never had an issue prior to upgrading to lucid though, been using this machine for 2 years now.
[01:47] <sweb> ActionParsnip, ok thank for time, it's to late for me .... i'll be back soon
[01:47] <StevenX> It ran all the time, and I had to press a key combination and so if I wanted to run xchat, all I had to do was press that key, and type in xch and it would auto-complete it for me.
[01:47] <pad_s> ActionParsnip, ok thanks.. i will download the 64bit version
[01:47] <Klick> i know this probably doen't have anything to do with ubuntu
[01:47] <uLinux> after updating kernel it says "keep the local version currently installed"
[01:47] <StevenX> Kinda like "read" my mind on what I was looking for. (FYI, it's not ctrl+f2)
[01:47] <k0d3g3ar> iAccepted, I think that Synaptic just has the one 'perl' application there.
[01:47] <CloudMonkee> anyone use Evolution Mail? if so, I want to know how to switch from one synchronize account mailbox to another.
[01:47] <uLinux> i just want the new kernel!
[01:47] <ActionParsnip> pad_s: remember to md5 test the iso before downloading
[01:47] <uLinux> help!
[01:47] <ActionParsnip> not downloading, burning
[01:48] <iAccepted> k0d3g3ar: Synaptic, Sorry im a noob by the way.
[01:48] <vsingh165> I'm trying to figure out why GNOME takes so long to log in
[01:48] <ActionParsnip> uLinux:  what file is it saying will be editted?
[01:48] <iAccepted> k0d3g3ar: Synaptic?
[01:48] <pad_s> ActionParsnip, is that to make sure its downloaded properly ?
[01:48] <vsingh165> I've sifted thru log files and haven't really found anything pertaining to my problem
[01:48] <ActionParsnip> pad_s: exactly ;)
[01:48] <uLinux> ActionParsnip configuration file grub
[01:48] <pad_s> ActionParsnip, sure will do.. thank you
[01:48] <k0d3g3ar> iAccepted, Go to your System Menu, select Administration, and then Synaptic Package Manager.  Then do a search for 'perl' and you can download it right from there
[01:48] <gnac> can someone tell me how to get the gnome filemanager to stop opening up new windows?
[01:48] <CloudMonkee> Can anyone help me with Evolution Mail. It's a very simple question.
[01:49] <hmw> !ask | CloudMonkee
[01:49] <mdg> any command line junkies here tonight who listen to internet radio?
[01:49] <ActionParsnip> uLinux: I'd say install the maintainers, if you check the differences you can see whats shaking but usually the maintainers is ok
[01:49] <StevenX> anyone? lol.
[01:49] <uLinux> ok ill do it
[01:49] <hmw> !anyone | lol
[01:49] <gnac> mdg: yes, but not via the cli
[01:49] <Cryp71c> Who was talking earlier about removing things from the tray bar in UNR? Is there anyway to do that?

[01:50] <vsingh165> anyone noticing gnome having weird issues?  sometimes my cursor goes crazy and it cycles thru all the menus/buttons on screen; it goes back to normal after a few seconds
[01:50] <mdg> gnac: I'm trying to get moc to play shoutcast streams - - I just found out streamtuner has an error regarding audacious/audacious2
[01:50] <hmw> *facepalm* (i feel urged to say *fp*)
[01:50] <gnac> How do I get the gnome filemanager to stop opening up new windows everytime I click on a folder?
[01:50] <StevenX> ActionParsnip, that's it!!!!!
[01:50] <StevenX> Thanks!
[01:50] <ActionParsnip> np
[01:50] <Klick> I need to take a bootable thumbdrive and convert to an iso file any utils that would help?
[01:50] <Trellian> StevenX: try launchy
[01:50] <k0d3g3ar> iAccepted, you can use GEdit or any IDE for your code.  They are just text files afterall
[01:50] <vsingh165> @gnac: open up a folder and go to Edit -> Preferences
[01:51] <dominicdinad> hmw: what do you mean
[01:51] <maestrojed> As I use ubuntu more and more my biggest fear is in buying accessories. How do you know if they will work with Ubuntu? For instance, do I need be picky when buying an external hard drive to use as a back up drive?
[01:51] <gnac> vsingh165: I didn't see anything there about new windows.
[01:51] <Guest52771> hello
[01:51] <mdg> moc doesn't like the playlist.... I must be doing something wrong
[01:51] <hmw> dominicdinad: i was refering to someone else, who used LOL. nevermind. i am usually not using any abbrevations
[01:51] <k0d3g3ar> maestrojed, you should be fine with any devices that use common interfaces (ie. USB, Firewire, etc.).  Ubuntu has excellent interface support built in
[01:51] <iAccepted> k0d3g3ar: Ugh, this is going to be hard ill look it up i don't want to bother you,.
[01:51] <vsingh165> @gnac: go to "Behavior" tab, and there's an option "Open each folder in its own window"
[01:51] <Guest52771> can anyone help with my Ubuntu 10 wifi signal on my laptop?  for some reason it seems to flash for packets either received or transmitted
[01:52] <maestrojed> K0d3g3ar: thank you
[01:52] <uLinux> now i have 2 different kernel entries
[01:52] <gnac> vsingh165: ty
[01:52] <CloudMonkee> I'm running Ubuntu 9.04, and, for some reason, I can't get my Nvidia Geforce GT 220 card to be recognized to run proprietary drivers. Anyone, at all, know the solution to the problem?
[01:52] <ActionParsnip> uLinux: if the current kernel is ok, you can remove the old one. i'd test for a while just to be sure
[01:52] <k0d3g3ar> CloudMonkee, do you have the NVidia drivers installed?
[01:52] <vsingh165> gnac: np...by the way, are you having issues with gnome in 10.04 (if you're running that)
[01:53] <gnac> vsingh165: no, not yet.
[01:53] <ActionParsnip> CloudMonkee: add the nvidia vpau ppa and install the nvidia-lx-185 package which will install the latest 195 driver
[01:53] <vsingh165> gnac: my cursor sometimes goes nuts and cycles thru all the menus and buttons for a few seconds, then comes back to normal again.  it's weird
[01:53] <CloudMonkee> k0deg3ar, no i don't. it usually just recognizes it. In 9.10 & 10.04, it does, but I have to run 9.04 for vmware workstation
[01:53] <gnac> lol, no, haven't seen that.
[01:53] <ActionParsnip> vsingh165: after it happens run: dmesg | tail -n 20
[01:54] <uLinux> ubuntu shows a weird color when is shutting down
[01:54] <ActionParsnip> vsingh165: see if it gives any clues
[01:54] <uLinux> but this happens since lucid
[01:54] <ActionParsnip> vsingh165: do you have a mobile phone near the mouse cable (if its a wired one)
[01:54] <arvind_khadri> uLinux, its desired
[01:55] <uLinux> and before showing Login window
[01:55] <hmw> uLinux: that should be not a problem. they just are too lazy to program some clearing of the video RAM. I wonder, why they dont fix this. On my computers, Linux often looks weird, while shutting down.
[01:55] <vsingh165> ActionParsnip: found something in dmesg (lemme pastebin it)
[01:55] <uLinux> it shows something but the image is weird
[01:55] <ActionParsnip> vsingh165: pastebin away
[01:55] <Cryp71c> Hrm, trying to get wireless working, sudo ifconfig -a lists a "wlan0" ; I try "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up" and get "SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory"
[01:55] <uLinux> maybe thats because they dont shutdown too often
[01:55] <ActionParsnip> Cryp71c: if you run: sudo iwlist scan    do you see SSIDs?
[01:55] <hmw> uLinux: heh. that might be it.
[01:56] <robson> how can i get python-lxml 2.2.2 or better? apt-get is choosing lxml 2.1.5
[01:56] <vsingh165> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/HN1X7A5j
[01:56] <uLinux> and sometimes i have to reajust the displaying image
[01:56] <vsingh165> ActionParsnip: it logs that everytime the mouse gues nuts
[01:56] <Cryp71c> ActionParsnip, wlan0 Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
[01:56] <uLinux> after boot
[01:56] <vsingh165> ActionParsnip: i do have wireless keybd but mouse is wired, maybe that has to do with it?
[01:56] <ActionParsnip> vsingh165: ok now use that output in websearches to find bugs and/or guides
[01:56] <vsingh165> ActionParsnip: this never happens in win7
[01:56] <vsingh165> k
[01:57] <ActionParsnip> vsingh165: what windows does or doesnt do is moot
[01:57] <hiexpo> !windows
[01:57] <vsingh165> ActionParsnip: yeah, but if windows isn't doing it, it's most probably an ubuntu-related issue
[01:58] <uLinux> btw i have problem that i asked a lot of times here: How can I fix hour/clock format at Login window, Pidgin etc..?
[01:58] <david_> ahhh!! lol some help. Was following the tutorial https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM and it wants me to install grub but ive no idea what to chose
[01:58] <ActionParsnip> vsingh165: windows is a completely different OS with different drivers and different support
[01:58] <Trellian> can someone help me debug an upstart issue i'm having where the runlevel is not properly set? it's not because there's no 'lo' entry in /etc/network/interfaces as many launchpad bugs state. The system boots, but stalls halfway during the boot process, if i then ssh into the box the runlevel command returns unknown, manually doing telinit 2 will compleet the boot process
[01:58] <ActionParsnip> vsingh165: if it didnt happen in say redat then thatis of interest

[02:12] <Trellian> can someone help me debug an upstart issue i'm having where the runlevel is not properly set? it's not because there's no 'lo' entry in /etc/network/interfaces as many launchpad bugs state. The system boots, but stalls halfway during the boot process, if i then ssh into the box the runlevel command returns unknown, manually doing telinit 2 will compleet the boot process

[02:18] <shane2peru_> magn3ts, I just saw a thread on that on the forums
[02:18] <hiexpo> ardantus, perhaps you should learn a bit more about linux before / know one is gonna spoon feed you here google is your best friend
[02:19] <bb2> hi, iḿ trying to install lemonpos from ubuntu center sofware but there is an error any help?
[02:19] <unop> Dark_Wolf, write a wrapper script that sets the display before running the program?
[02:19] <Plugh> Docteh: The zone numbers in US calls no longer truly indicate what part of the US they are in.

[02:19] <Dark_Wolf> unop: how would I go about setting the display?

[02:21] <ubuntunewb> does anyone have any suggestions as to how to set hotkeys for screen rotation? I can't seem to find anything on Google.
[02:21] <unop> Dark_Wolf,  $1 if you are passing the display value to the script - but I would have throught you would hard code that rather than have it be dynamic

[02:22] <k3rn> unop, geirha, Thanks again!

[02:23] <Cornwall> Hi, I'd like to run a .sh script after my network connects to eth0. How would I go about that? Will placing the script in /etc/network/if-up.d achieve this? If so, I don't think it has worked
[02:23] <Narya> ty ActionParsnip
[02:23] <ActionParsnip> !backup | maestrojed
[02:23] <unop> Cornwall,   man 5 interfaces   # look for pre-up and post-up
[02:23] <shane2peru_> maestrojed, you need to install it, but yes there are plenty of backup solutions
[02:23] <maestrojed> ActonParsn: Thank you
[02:23] <maestrojed> shane2peru_ TY
[02:23] <ActionParsnip> maestrojed: there is no single best application for any single task
[02:23] <unop> Cornwall, that won't work if you are using something like network-manager to control your connections however
[02:24] <Narya> ActionParsnip, E: Couldn't find package flashplugin64-installer
[02:24] <shane2peru_> maestrojed, no prob
[02:24] <datta> hiexpo: thanks but I don't think even what is included in ubuntu's directory is included in ubotto
[02:24] <Cornwall> unop: I'm using network  manager
[02:24] <ActionParsnip> Narya: did you add the ppa?
[02:24] <Syco54645> my usb drive is no longer mounting. when i do an fdisk -l the id is b. i assume that is what is wrong with it?
[02:24] <Narya> oops missed that part ActionParsnip thank you!
[02:24] <woodyjlw> I have to reset my bluetooth visibility every time I reboot or wake to reconnect my mouse and it wont save the bluetooth name after I enter it in
[02:24] <Syco54645> if so what can i do to fix it?
[02:24] <Plugh> I've updated my laptop and desktop from 9.10 to 10.04. On the laptop, the minimize/maximize/close gadgets stayed on the right. On the desktop they are now on the left. How do I move them back to the right on the desktop?
[02:24] <ActionParsnip> Narya: read ALL of the page, it helps quite a bit
[02:24] <unop> Cornwall, NM doesn't use the  /etc/network/* files at all - as far as i know -- NM's not very versatile
[02:24] <datta> did anyone get any message from gwibber saying what had happened?
[02:25] <Narya> ActionParsnip, ok thank you!
[02:25] <unop> Cornwall, you could use wicd instead of NM - it allows you to run scripts
[02:25] <Cornwall> unop: well, how about running it on resume? I could just make the script sleep for a little bit
[02:25] <woodyjlw> im using ubuntu 10.04
[02:25] <aaron-n-nikki> what can i use to open rar files?
[02:25] <unop> Cornwall, ok, maybe I should ask what you are actually trying to do first?
[02:26] <ardantus> ActionParsnip: always "tar: Cowardly refusing to create an empty archive"
[02:26] <hmw> aaron-n-nikki: "unrar"
[02:26] <Trellian> aaragh, i hate upstart :(
[02:26] <aaron-n-nikki> is that the name of it?
[02:26] <Cornwall> unop: My end goal is to run a script that will log me into my network - I get kicked off after an hour of inactivity. So the only time I have to log back in is when I wake up in the morning
[02:27] <Narya> ActionParsnip, flash is still not working on firefox after following all instructions
[02:27] <hiexpo> !unrar\
[02:27] <hmw> that is the command
[02:27] <ActionParsnip> aaron-n-nikki: sudo apt-get install rar unrar
[02:27] <Plugh> aaron-n-nikki: Install the unrar-nonfree package. It has rar and unrar command line programs
[02:27] <ActionParsnip> Narya: what browser do you use?
[02:27] <Narya> Firefox ActionParsnip
[02:27] <Cornwall> unop: er, rather, resume my computer* (I have a script to handle all the other inactivity
[02:27] <vago_> hi I download via synaptic  Solar theme now, how I can install it?
[02:27] <hiexpo> sudo apt-get install unrar free
[02:27] <vago_> anybody know?
[02:28] <Dark_Wolf> How do I get a command to work without a path prepended? I tried putting the script in /bin, but it still can't find it.
[02:28] <sebsebseb> vago_: for Plymouth?
[02:28] <datta> in system>> preference there is broadcast too but gwibber's not loading
[02:28] <vago_> sebsebseb,  yes
[02:28] <sebsebseb> vago_: remove the other theme's and it should use that one instead
[02:28] <unop> Cornwall, I would keep the connection alive perhaps to avoid the inactivity - like pinging a host every set interval
[02:28] <Dark_Wolf> Apparently the system is looking for the script in my home directory
[02:28] <Plugh> Dark_Wolf: Did you mark the script as executable?
[02:28] <sebsebseb> vago_: well that Ubuntu text boot one,  can probably stay
[02:28] <shane2peru_> sebsebseb, what is Plymouth?
[02:28] <vago_> are u sure? and how I can remove default theme?
[02:28] <Dark_Wolf> Plugh: Yeah
[02:29] <unop> Dark_Wolf,  /bin has to be in your PATH variable
[02:29] <Cornwall> unop: During sleep? How would I achieve that?
[02:29] <sebsebseb> vago_: in Synaptic
[02:29] <hiexpo> !plymouth
[02:29] <sebsebseb> vago_: there may be another way to do this, but this is the way I know works
[02:29] <woodyjlw> I have to reset my bluetooth visibility every time I reboot or wake to reconnect my mouse and it wont save the bluetooth name after I enter it in... using 10.04
[02:29] <Dark_Wolf> unop: /bin isn't by default? O-o
[02:29] <vago_> ok I will try it right now
[02:29] <sebsebseb> hiexpo: no factoid yet, but maybe there should be one
[02:29] <markus_> hy everybody
[02:29] <hiexpo> yes
[02:29] <aaron-n-nikki> Plugh: how do I install the package?
[02:29] <datta> http://paste.ubuntu.com/428665/ this is the error that pops up after trying gwibber in the terminal
[02:29] <unop> Dark_Wolf,  do check.  echo "$PATH"
[02:29] <markus_> I miss a volume control in the panel. where can I find that?
[02:29] <sebsebseb> shane2peru_: the graphical boot up that Fedora and Mandriva had before Ubuntu,  unfortuatnly it does not like propritary Nivida or ATI drivers,  well I guess that depends on the driver
[02:29] <unop> Cornwall, hmm, well - wicd then
[02:29] <Dark_Wolf> ah
[02:30] <vago_> sebsebseb,  which one I need to remove? there is no any default theme in synaptic
[02:30] <datta> is it that a file is missing or some problem with proxy?
[02:30] <Dark_Wolf> unop: Thanks :)
[02:30] <ubuntunewb> how do i go about enabling custom keyboard shortcuts? I cannot assign a key combo to the shortcuts
[02:30] <sebsebseb> vago_: search synaptic for  plymouth
[02:30] <shane2peru_> sebsebseb, ahh, ok, thanks
[02:30] <unop> Dark_Wolf, is it? because if i remember correctly, for non-root users ubuntu has a skewed PATH
[02:30] <Dark_Wolf> It's /usr/bin
[02:30] <Plugh> aaron-n-nikki: You can install it using Synaptic
[02:30] <vago_> sebsebseb,  I search but there is no something like default theme..
[02:30] <sebsebseb> shane2peru_: your not on 10.04 yet?
[02:30] <Narya> ActionParsnip, the Adobe Flash Player 64 bit alpha installer is installed
[02:30] <Cornwall> unop: I really like networkmanager, though.... :(. Do you not know of a way to run a script on resume? I have found /etc/pm/suspend.d, but that runs a script on both suspend and resume, I believe. My script blocks will suspend from working.
[02:31] <ActionParsnip> aaron-n-nikki: sudo find / -name "libflashplayer.so"
[02:31] <sebsebseb> vago_: no it won't say default theme, just look to see what thems are installed
[02:31] <sebsebseb> vago_: have you got more than one theme installed?
[02:31] <vago_> sebsebseb,  no
[02:31] <Henry_BR> splash(while booting) isn't shown in ubuntu lucid. how could i fix this?
[02:31] <ActionParsnip> Narya: cool,  but it doesnt run in firefox?
[02:31] <sebsebseb> vago_: no  plymouth ubuntu-text  or anything like that?
[02:31] <ubuntunewb> nevermind, found it ^.^
[02:31] <aaron-n-nikki> sudo find rar unrar
[02:32] <sebsebseb> Henry_BR: ok what do you see instead?
[02:32] <EntityReborn> Is there a way to bunch wallpapers together in the same way the space ones are bunched?
[02:32] <vago_> plymouth-ubuntu-logo
[02:32] <vago_> and
[02:32] <ActionParsnip> Narya:  sudo find / -name "libflashplayer.so"    what is output? Did you restart firefox after installing it?
[02:32] <vago_> plymouth-ubuntu-text
[02:32] <sebsebseb> vago_: right those are the defaults
[02:32] <ActionParsnip> aaron-n-nikki: can use: which rar; which unrar
[02:32] <vago_> remove and logo and text?
[02:32] <sebsebseb> vago_: text can probably stay, but be sure to remove plymouth-ubuntu-logo if you want the solor theme instead
[02:32] <Trellian> can someone help me debug an upstart issue i'm having where the runlevel is not properly set? it's not because there's no 'lo' entry in /etc/network/interfaces as many launchpad bugs state.

[02:33] <unop> Cornwall, I believe I've used a script in /etc/pm/sleep.d/ sometime ago
[02:33] <shane2peru_> sebsebseb, oh, I have been on 10.04 for over a month now, guess I'm just not up on this stuff, I spend too much time using my computer instead of tinkering lately. :)
[02:33] <vago_> sebsebseb,  I find this way
[02:33] <vago_> sudo update-alternatives --install \
[02:33] <vago_> /lib/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth default.plymouth \
[02:33] <vago_> /lib/plymouth/themes/solar/solar.plymouth 100

[02:33] <Henry_BR> sebsebseb, a black window
[02:33] <vago_> I will try it right now, after that I will try how u say :-)
[02:33] <Narya> that was the problem forgot to restart FF. Thanks again ActionParsnip
[02:33] <sebsebseb> Henry_BR: right yeah I know about this kind of issue
[02:33] <sebsebseb> Henry_BR:  Which graphics card you got?
[02:33] <markl_> is there an easy way in ubuntu to set up a network scanner?
[02:33] <UncleD> Almost done with my upgrade from Karmic->Lucid. Round of applause please?
[02:33] <unop> Cornwall, you have to check what $1 is in the script - it can be one of  "suspend", "hibernate", "resume" or "thaw" -- so you can base your actions on this condition
[02:33] <datta> sorry looks like a bug has already been reported
[02:33] <Henry_BR> intel g950 i guess
[02:33] <Cornwall> unop: my problem is that my script uses the lynx text browser in the background to log in. When I suspend, I cannot get to that login page because I haven't been timed out yet. I tried setting a timeout for the script, but it still inhibits suspend..
[02:34] <ActionParsnip> Narya: cool, thought it would be ;)
[02:34] <Cornwall> unop: I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with $1
[02:34] <woodyjlw> I crashed ubuntu 10.04 on my dual boot. I am going to install on different drive and dont want to have to reinstall windows7 so is there a way to fix the boot sector for windows and delete the broken ubuntu?
[02:34] <sebsebseb> Henry_BR: or if you don't know,  well Nivida or ATI?  Intel maybe?
[02:34] <ubuntunewb> does anyone know where the empathy tray icon images are located in the filesystem?
[02:34] <Dark_Wolf> unop: Alright now...new problem: It's only running one dock at a time. It waits until one closes before opening the other
[02:34] <ActionParsnip> markl_: do you mean access one or setup ubuntu as a network scanning server?
[02:34] <unop> Cornwall, $1 being the first argument passed to the script when it is called.
[02:35] <EntityReborn> Is there a way to bunch wallpapers together in the same way the space papers are bunched?
[02:35] <hiexpo> easy way synaptic unrar free
[02:35] <vago__> sebsebseb,  it work but only when I shutdown computer
[02:35] <vago__> sebsebseb,  When I start it, it use old login form, and no animation.. just black screen.. default loading is not show too
[02:35] <Cornwall> unop: How would I go about basing actions via condition? You don't have to tell me, but I don't really know how to google for this
[02:36] <unop> Dark_Wolf, you might want to send the task into the background .. add a & to the end of your command.
[02:36] <sebsebseb> vago__: hrm
[02:36] <sebsebseb> vago__: Which graphics card?
[02:36] <aaron-n-nikki> ActionParsnip: Says no such file or directory. I did sudo apt-get install rar  unrar
[02:36] <ActionParsnip> !info rar | aaron-n-nikki
[02:36] <Henry_BR> sebsebseb, is an intel... let me see...  Dell Inspiron default card
[02:36] <vago__> :-)
[02:36] <Guest10750> is there any console/terminals that blend into the desktop background
[02:36] <ActionParsnip> aaron-n-nikki: make sure you have multiverse repo enabled
[02:37] <Cornwall> unop: ah, I'm guessing I use if/then. So would I say "if pm-suspend"?
[02:37] <vago__> sebsebseb,  now i remove it from synaptic
[02:37] <vago__> will try again
[02:37] <sebsebseb> right you both got Intel  Henry_BR and vago__  you both should be able to use Plymouth with that
[02:37] <unop> Cornwall,  in the script you'd have something like.   case "$1" in  suspend)  my_suspend_command_here;; resume) my_resume_command_here;; esac
[02:37] <aaron-n-nikki> ActionParsnip: how i do that?
[02:37] <Dark_Wolf> manchot: The default terminal is transparent in Lucid. You can also set earlier versions to do this with profiles.
[02:37] <ActionParsnip> aaron-n-nikki: use software sources in administration
[02:37] <ubuntunewb> Dark_Wolf: i looked for it, but didn't find it; maybe i overlooked it. let me try again.
[02:37] <unop> Cornwall, yea, basically conditional checking - you can use your if/then/else if you like
[02:37] <jdsanderson> Where can i get help with 10.04
[02:38] <Dark_Wolf> jdsanderson: here :P
[02:38] <sebsebseb> jdsanderson: yeah here
[02:38] <sebsebseb> !ask | jdsanderson
[02:38] <jdsanderson> I am having video driver problems
[02:38] <vago_> sebsebseb, now it work :-)
[02:38] <Cornwall> unop: excellent. I'll fiddle with this. Ubuntu does use pm-utils, doesn't it?
[02:38] <sebsebseb> !details | jdsanderson
[02:38] <vago_> sebsebseb,  do you know, how change login form ?
[02:38] <Henry_BR> sebsebseb, I have tried to do: sudo aptitude reinstall Plymouth... didn't work
[02:38] <unop> Cornwall, well, check out some of the other scripts in that directory - should give you an idea of how to construct the script of yours
[02:38] <jdsanderson> and cant find xorg.conf
[02:38] <sebsebseb> vago_: what's up with your log in screen?
[02:39] <sebsebseb> Henry_BR: uhmm plymouth is already installed by default

[02:39] <unop> Cornwall, I'm not too sure actually - I run a system that's far removed from ubuntu as it stands
[02:39] <jdsanderson> ati radion moble m6 ly
[02:39] <sebsebseb> Henry_BR: in 10.04
[02:39] <vago_> sebsebseb,  it use default login form, but I wanna change it :-(
[02:39] <aaron-n-nikki> ActionParsnip: don't see multiverse repo
[02:39] <jbrouhard> jdsanderson, What exactly is the driver problem ?
[02:39] <Cornwall> unop: ha, okay. Well, I will try this out. Thanks so much for your help
[02:39] <ActionParsnip> jdsanderson: lucid annoyingly doesnt ship with an xorg.conf
[02:39] <sebsebseb> vago_: there is some sort of program in the repo that can get a background from Gnome and put as  background in GDM 2.  GDM 2 sucks though,  may as well use KDM or something else really :)
[02:39] <Henry_BR> sebsebseb, i tried to (re)install
[02:39] <vago_> sebsebseb,  KDM? what is that ? :-)
[02:40] <sebsebseb> vago_: KDE Display Manager
[02:40] <sebsebseb> vago_: of course if you never installed a KDE app on there before, it is going to want to put on quite a lot of stuff
[02:40] <ActionParsnip> aaron-n-nikki: under the ubuntu software tab iths the 4th tickbox down
[02:40] <Dark_Wolf> ubuntunewb: The only annoying thing about versions of the terminal pre-Lucid is that the transparency goes straight to the desktop; it doesn't show underlying windows
[02:40] <ActionParsnip> aaron-n-nikki: it says multiverse in the brackets
[02:41] <vago_> sebsebseb,  :-D  but Gnome not bad too :-) I watched some videos in Youtube ;-) I never installed KDE yet :-)
[02:41] <jdsanderson> sometimes ti works, sometimes it freezes, sometimes it 3ds some times it dosent sometimes i close the lid and it starts workin when i open it again sometimes i have to re boot............
[02:41] <vago_> sebsebseb,  which program u can advice to change login screen ?
[02:41] <ubuntunewb> Dark_Wolf: terminal? I'm trying to fix empathy. It has a bugged icon for one of its functions, and i'm trying to fix it :P
[02:41] <sebsebseb> vago_: well since uhmm I guess 2004 or was that 2005,  I have mixed Gnome and KDE apps
[02:41] <jbrouhard> jdsanderson, are you using the restricted drivers ?
[02:41] <aaron-n-nikki> ActionParsnip: ubuntu software center?
[02:41] <sebsebseb> vago_: so  Gnome usauly with KDE apps in it, sometimes other way round though
[02:41] <jdsanderson> no
[02:41] <un214> full screen flash updates screen very slowly and/or hangs (lucid amd64)
[02:41] <lucas-arg> im having slow transfer rate with ubuntu i have a iw3945abg wireless card, is it any bug reported?
[02:42] <Plugh> I got the min/max/close gadgets appearing where I wanted them by resetting the theme via System->Preferences->Appearance
[02:42] <jdsanderson> no restricted drivers preasent
[02:42] <Dark_Wolf> ubuntunewb: Sorry... helping two people at once is hard xD
[02:42] <sebsebseb> vago_: since neither Desktop environment is good enough for me on it's own
[02:42] <un214> this was working all throught the alphas and only got broke on the last RC
[02:42] <Dark_Wolf> manchot: http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/linux_customize_terminal.html <-- Check there
[02:42] <ActionParsnip> aaron-n-nikki: no, under the system menu -> administration -> software sources
[02:42] <Dark_Wolf> manchot: The only annoying thing about versions of the terminal pre-Lucid is that the transparency goes straight to the desktop; it doesn't show underlying windows
[02:42] <Trellian> is it ok to set /boot to noauto? will apt dist-upgrades automount it?
[02:42] <jdsanderson> right now it is working
[02:42] <jdsanderson> but took three boots
[02:42] <jbrouhard> jdsanderson, I'd recommend using the restricted drivers
[02:42] <ActionParsnip> aaron-n-nikki: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=mainmenu.png
[02:42] <jbrouhard> cause the FOSS version are rather buggy i think.
[02:43] <ActionParsnip> aaron-n-nikki: i can't make it any clearer now
[02:43] <sebsebseb> vago_: KDM yeah :)  uhmm LXDM by default that will say Lubuntu if you install from Ubuntu repo,  a rather nice screen though.  There's slim as well  which will say Debian if you install from the repo, and that one is rather customizable it seems by the site that it woudn't take much to make your own theme.
[02:43] <ChromiumChris> Hello all!
[02:43] <aaron-n-nikki> ActionParsnip: i'm there just don't see it
[02:43] <Henry_BR> I'm considering to remove EMPATHY because this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/573814 . Does anyone know what program should I use instead of Empathy?
[02:43] <manchot> Dark_Wolf, thank you. I am reading it.
[02:43] <jdsanderson> there isn't one all the old ati drivers are open sorce
[02:43] <vago_> sebsebseb,  I have not installed Desktop Environment
[02:43] <sebsebseb> vago_: even a way to get the old GDM working, but that's a bit pointless
[02:43] <vago_> sebsebseb,  I install it right now :-))
[02:43] <mc_> Henry_BR, pidgin?
[02:43] <sebsebseb> vago_: uh no you don't understand then
[02:43] <ubuntunewb> Dark_Wolf: It's fine :)
[02:43] <ActionParsnip> aaron-n-nikki: http://cybernetnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/ubuntu-software-sources-proprietary-drivers.jpg   its the bottom tick box in the highlighted area
[02:44] <vago_> sebsebseb,  ? :-)
[02:44] <aaron-n-nikki> ActionParsnip: check marked
[02:44] <ubuntunewb> Dark_Wolf: I've looked high and low for the icon stash, and i can't seem to find the set i'm looking for.
[02:44] <sebsebseb> vago_: you already have one it's called Gnome
[02:44] <jbrouhard> jdsanderson, I dunno, there's two differnet sets of ATI drivers floating.. one community built, one built by ATI themselves.
[02:44] <sebsebseb> vago_: KDE is another popular one
[02:44] <jdsanderson> i would like to force hardy's driver it worked perfecrt
[02:44] <vago_> sebsebseb,  but I find in repo GNOME Desktop Enviroment package
[02:44] <ActionParsnip> aaron-n-nikki: ok click close and run: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get rar unrar
[02:44] <sebsebseb> vago_: and you can mix  Gnome and KDE apps together
[02:44] <manchot> Dark_Wolf, can I launch a borderless, transparent, maximized terminal that goes into the background?
[02:44] <sebsebseb> vago_: Ubuntu uses Gnome,    Kubuntu uses KDE
[02:45] <Dark_Wolf> manchot: I think I know what you're looking for, or something similar. Give me a sec.
[02:45] <vago_> sebsebseb,  I uninstall kubuntu because it not work with my wifi
[02:45] <jdsanderson> hang on , i'll find which one he is using right now
[02:45] <ChromiumChris> Hello all!
[02:45] <sebsebseb> vago_: Lubuntu uses LXDE.   Xubuntu uses  XFCE.  differnet looks and differnet apps,  you can log in to the actasul desktop environment from the log in screen.  or use it's apps in   the one you have installed,  you can use  KDE apps inside Gnome for example
[02:46] <chid> are there any 'driver' checking software for ubuntu
[02:46] <chid> like to upgrade and stuff ;P
[02:46] <sebsebseb> vago_: also  Ubuntu,  Kubuntu, Lubuntu,  and Lubuntu are all Ubuntu under the hood, so your wireless  should  also work in Kubuntu
[02:46] <sebsebseb> vago_: two Lubuntu's no that was meant to be Xubuntu  as well
[02:46] <vago_> sebsebseb,  and how I can install KDE in my UBUNTU? :-)
[02:46] <ChromiumChris> I'm not new to Ubuntu (I once had 6.06, 8.04, and 9.04) and I know have a question
[02:46] <jdsanderson> using xserver- xorg-video-
[02:47] <jdsanderson> ati
[02:47] <sebsebseb> vago_: by installing Kubuntu
[02:47] <ChromiumChris> I have 10.04 installed on my laptop, and my laptop supports an HDMI-out.
[02:47] <Guest44568> hey how can i add Lubuntu to my choices of GUI's when i log in
[02:47] <vago_> sebsebseb, no way to leave ubuntu and install KDe on it ? :-(
[02:47] <ChromiumChris> but when i Plugged it in, nothing happened.
[02:47] <ChromiumChris> what do I do to make it appear on my TV?
[02:47] <sebsebseb> vago_: yes
[02:47] <Dark_Wolf> manchot: yakuake may be as close as you can get
[02:47] <sebsebseb> vago_: one of them will be the default,  and you can choose the other one from the log in screen, when you want it
[02:47] <vago_> sebsebseb,  really I install Ubuntu for skype, because when I install kubuntu, I can't install skype I don't know why :-(
[02:47] <Dark_Wolf> manchot: http://weichen.files.wordpress.com/2007/02/screenshot5.png
[02:48] <vago_> sebsebseb,  I try again same package, but no changes..
[02:48] <sebsebseb> vago_: you should be able to run Skype in Kubuntu as well
[02:48] <jbrouhard> jdsanderson, I'd try the restricted drivers if it's not enabled
[02:48] <jbrouhard> they may be more stable
[02:48] <ChromiumChris> ?
[02:48] <manchot> Dark_Wolf, yakuake is the program to have that effect?
[02:48] <sebsebseb> vago_: anyway you don't need the whole of Kubuntu/KDE  installed to  have it's KDM log in screen
[02:48] <hiexpo> ? once registered i should be able to join any channel right
[02:48] <jdsanderson> yes restricted is enabled no driver
[02:49] <ChromiumChris> How do I get 10.04 to appear over HDMI?
[02:49] <vago_> sebsebseb,  is it ok that I install ubuntu and kubuntu with Wubi?
[02:49] <Dr_Willis> hiexpo:  after you 'identify' to the services on connection.
[02:49] <shane2peru_> ChromiumChris, you may want to consolidate your question to one line, and give them a minute
[02:49] <sebsebseb> vago_: just like you don't need the whole of Lubuntu installed to  have it's LXDM log in screen
[02:49] <ChromiumChris> ok
[02:49] <Dark_Wolf> manchot: Yakuake slides a teminal down from the top of the screen. It's transparent and spreads the width of the screen. It's also borderless except for the bottom, but that may be removable.
[02:49] <shane2peru_> ChromiumChris, right, like that. :)
[02:49] <vago_> sebsebseb,  there is not chance change login screen and add effect in Gnome?
[02:49] <ChromiumChris> haha, I'm really new to this IRC stuff
[02:49] <sebsebseb> vago_: what do you mean?
[02:49] <hiexpo> Dr_Willis,  - ya its wierd i can not join backtrack anymore says i need to register
[02:50] <ActionParsnip> manchot: yakuake is sweeet, teres also tilda and guake for gnome etc
[02:50] <Dr_Willis> vago_:  GDM is only slightly 'changeable' in its appearance
[02:50] <shane2peru_> ChromiumChris, no problem, everyone has to learn at one point or another
[02:50] <ChromiumChris> :)
[02:50] <Henry_BR> :-( My Ubuntu Lucid looks like an Alpha System.
[02:50] <chid> apt-get install psb-kernel-source problem > http://pastebin.com/v3FPngny
[02:50] <ActionParsnip> Henry_BR: then get theming :)
[02:50] <Dr_Willis> Henry_BR: so?
[02:50] <manchot> ActionParsnip, I heard about tilda, but what is teres.
[02:51] <manchot> Dark_Wolf, thank you. yakuake - a Quake-style terminal emulator based on KDE Konsole technology. I am using gnome now
[02:51] <ActionParsnip> manchot: typo s/teres/theres
[02:51] <chid> does anyone have any idea why I can't install psb-kernel-source on 9.10
[02:51] <Dr_Willis> manchot:  theres a few other 'pop out/down' terminal programs in the repos also. guake I think is another
[02:51] <vago_> sebsebseb,  my english is not good, that why u don't understand me :-( I asked can I change login form, and add some effects in Gnome? Or I need to install Kubuntu and remove Ubuntu?
[02:51] <sebsebseb> vago_: effects such as Compiz or?
[02:51] <manchot> Dr_Willis, can tilda do that?
[02:51] <wo_spill> ** help ** my laptop isn't finding ANY wifi networks, mine, or my neighbor's .. running 10.04 here, any ideas??
[02:51] <sebsebseb> !compiz | vago_
[02:52] <Dr_Willis> !info tilda
[02:52] <vago_> sebsebseb,  I don't know Compiz? I think I already installed it
[02:52] <JoshDreamland> I told Jaunty to update to Karmic, now it won't boot. Brings up some tty layer with (initramfs)... I've never seen this before. Assuming it's actually "init RAM filesystem," this explains why I have no access to /. But I need such access to fix this mess. Can anyone help?
[02:52] <Dr_Willis> manchot:  same idea. Hit a key. terminal slids up/down/in/out
[02:52] <Henry_BR> So... how could I say that Ubuntu is a good OS to my friends if my OS doesn't work. @@
[02:52] <ChromiumChris> vago_: Alt+F2, then type compiz
[02:52] <JoshDreamland> In other words, how can I mount /dev/sdb1 / ?
[02:52] <sebsebseb> vago_: ok one thing at a  time
[02:52] <sebsebseb> vago_: plus there is also a great manual for newbies
[02:52] <sebsebseb> !manual | vago_
[02:52] <ActionParsnip> Henry_BR: it is a good OS if you deem it so, some people hate it
[02:53] <manchot> Ok. I am testing tilda and guake. thank you guys!
[02:53] <Dr_Willis> vago_:  You can change the appearance of the GDM login screen in some ways.   check the (not in the repos) tool 'gdm2setup' for an easy gui to do it in.
[02:53] <vago_> it just flash my monitor.. and thats all :-(
[02:53] <ChromiumChris> !info guake
[02:53] <wo_spill> ** help ** my laptop isn't finding ANY wifi networks, mine, or my neighbor's .. running 10.04 here, any ideas??
[02:53] <sebsebseb> vago_: you can change it's background, and that's about it
[02:53] <Dr_Willis> ChromiumChris:  theres a few others. but i cant rember their names
[02:53] <ChromiumChris> wo_spill: did you install the drivers?
[02:53] <ActionParsnip> wo_spill: if you run: sudo iwlist scan    does it find any?
[02:54] <wo_spill> chromium -- I've never had to before ..  I don't know who makes my 'nic
[02:54] <hacker> hello
[02:54] <sebsebseb> vago_: if you want a nicer looking background by default,  I suggest KDM
[02:54] <ActionParsnip> wo_spill: if not run: sudo lshw -C network     use the product line in websearches to find guides
[02:54] <Dark_Wolf> manchot: KDE applications run in gnome, you know :P
[02:54] <wo_spill> thanks ..  trying a few things here ..
[02:54] <ChromiumChris> wo_spill: Simply plug your laptop in via ethernet, then check for new drivers
[02:55] <vago_> sebsebseb,  I think I have installed gdm2 because in System preference I already have Login Screen
[02:55] <sebsebseb> vago_: yes by default  with 10.04, you get GDM 2
[02:55] <vago_> sebsebseb,  but there is no any options to change something..
[02:55] <facugaich> So, I installed 10.04 and now I can't figure out how to add depth to the windows in my rotating cube, I have the feeling those settings have been moved somewhere else...
[02:55] <sebsebseb> vago_: indeed it's not that configurable unlike the old version
[02:55] <Dr_Willis> vago_:  look for the tool 'gdm2setup' or other unoffical tools.
[02:55] <sebsebseb> vago_: you will need another program to change the background
[02:55] <manchot> Dark_Wolf, I have yet to test the pompous kde environment.
[02:56] <ChromiumChris> facugaich, are you using Compiz?
[02:56] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: there is something in the repo that will  change background by the way
[02:56] <shane2peru_> hey that guake is pretty neat
[02:56] <Warlock> Hi everithing
[02:56] <Henry_BR> ActionParsnip, here people, free software community, says that gnu/linux should be used... in schools, home, etc... But, I feels like it cause more hating than loving... I feels like first the community should implement a better OS before want people, simple users, using it. I don't know...
[02:56] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: or at least get from Gnome website first, and then be able to do it
[02:56] <Dark_Wolf> manchot: The terminal's going to work the same in GNOME as it would in KDE
[02:56] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: when the user has picked a background
[02:56] <facugaich> ChromiumChris, yes and CompizConfig
[02:56] <Dr_Willis> sebsebseb:  You can run the gnome-setings tool as the 'gdm' user and cahnge a fews things
[02:56] <Warlock> some chilean ?
[02:56] <ActionParsnip> Henry_BR: thats the goal of ubuntu
[02:56] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: right, but this person is a new user
[02:56] <ChromiumChris> Hmm
[02:56] <wo_spill> uhm, my 10.04 is barfing on me.  my sudo password isn't working.  wtf
[02:56] <mc_> facugaich, under Effects, the first option should be 3D Windows
[02:57] <Dr_Willis> sebsebseb:  or just edit that ugly default wallpaper  in gimp
