[00:00] <tiox> I am having problems with my hard line to the web. I tried deleting the old wired connections I had, then trying again, failed.
[00:00] <tiox> Maybe... should I delete my wired connection and then plug my modem in? :/
[00:01] <tiox> That sounds like it might work. BRB
[00:01] <captwho> anyone know what serves as an xorg.conf file in Ubuntu 10.04?
[00:02] <ubuntu___> tiox: yes delete the connection and plug in the modem
[00:02] <Darael> captwho: If you create one, it should work, but most of it is dynamically generated rather than read from a config file.
[00:02] <ugly_duck> ok, where is the xorg.conf located now days 11.04
[00:03] <ubuntu___> ugly_duck: just search for it on the command line
[00:03] <ugly_duck> ubuntu___: what a fantastic idea, why didn't i think of that already
[00:03] <xangua> ugly_duck: there s no a xorg.files , you an create one if yu want
[00:03] <Darael> ugly_duck: /etc/X11/xorg.conf - but it won't exist unless it's already been created by something overriding the auto-generated config.
[00:03] <captwho> Darael: I'm trying to up the resolution on my desktop and the instructions that i found were to modify the xorg.conf file
[00:03] <exutux> xorg.conf doesn't exist more from Ubuntu 8.10
[00:04] <ugly_duck> Darael: ahh... okies, thats why its not there
[00:04] <Darael> captwho: Like I say, it doesn't exist until and unless something creates it for the purpose of overrides.
[00:04] <billy2007> ive plugged in a wireless usb adaptor and it isnt even reconizing it
[00:04] <ubuntu___> exutux: did you start with linux from ubuntu?
[00:04] <exutux> if you want or need one you must create it by hand, or bu X -configure
[00:05] <ugly_duck> i install ati drivers, its changed my settings, it turns out the drivers aren't for my card, so unity wont run any mroe
[00:05] <exutux> ubuntu___: nope with debian but I use Ubuntu from 7.04
[00:06] <captwho> exutux: is "bu X -configure" the command?
[00:06] <captwho> never heard of that one
[00:06] <bora_> hello all
[00:06] <ubuntu___> exutux: have you used Suse?
[00:06] <bubbles|> hi
[00:06] <Darael> captwho: Nope. "sudo X -configure"
[00:07] <exutux> captwho: lol my bad.... was by*  X -configure
[00:07] <bubbles|> how do i update from ubuntu 10.04 to 11.04?
[00:07] <captwho> lol, thanks
[00:07] <maalac> bubbles|: download the iso file and burn to dvd and then upgrade
[00:07] <exutux> yeah sudo before and need to stop X before run command....then copy xorg,conf.new in /etc/X11/
[00:08] <maalac> bubbles|:although 11.04 is a bit buggy ..
[00:08] <bubbles|> how is it buggy?
[00:08] <exutux> sudo cp xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[00:08] <Darael> bubbles|: You'll have to go via 11.10. And to do that you need to change your sources settings (the update section of the Software Sources tool that you can get to from the Software Centre), so that you see "All releases" rather than just "LTS releases".
[00:09] <captwho> exutux: sweet, thanks
[00:09] <exutux> np
[00:09] <bubbles|> 11.10? has that been released?
[00:09] <Darael> bubbles|: My apologies.  Typo.  I meant 10.10.
[00:09] <bubbles|> oh, ok
[00:10] <maalac> bubbles|: i can't really tell i had some bad experience and end up going to 10.10
[00:10] <Darael> bubbles|: I can neither confirm nor deny that I am running 11.10 alpha, however.
[00:10] <Uchiha_Itachi> what's actually buggy about 11.04 is unity
[00:10] <maalac> bubbles|: yes i agree and its kernel issues ..
[00:10] <Dr_Willis> lubuntu in 11.04 works quite well :)
[00:11] <bubbles|> so i should stay with 10.04? i'm actually only updating because i need mysql 5.5
[00:11] <Drone4four> Uchiha_Itachi, yes, i agree that Unity on 11.04 is buggy...that's why i switched to xfce
[00:11] <kiichiro> quick question, a lot of my files became read only, I can change them back. But is there a way to select an entire folder and make it so all the files and subfolders+files are set to read and write in one command
[00:11] <bora_> hey i hawe a question. in ubuntu 11.10 GUI is 100% Unity or as a 11.04 is a session gnome
[00:11] <xangua> !ubuntu+1 | bora_
[00:11] <bora_> sorry i'am polish and my english is bad
[00:11] <maalac> kiichiro: try this chmod -R 777 (name of the folder)
[00:11] <Darael> bubbles|: It's worth checking for a PPA with the package you need first.
[00:12] <xangua> bubbles|: or compile
[00:12] <Darael> bora_: Gnome3 is allegedly to be available.  It doesn't, however, work for me right now.
[00:12] <exutux> maalac: isn't a good idea set 777 permission in that way
[00:12] <kiichiro> thank you so much
[00:12] <bubbles|> hm.. i'm not sure if compiling is a good choice
[00:12] <Uchiha_Itachi> chmod -R 666 /folder
[00:12] <bora_> yes i know it a codename but i quest about a GUI
[00:12] <bubbles|> the ppa is this one: https://launchpad.net/~clint-fewbar/+archive/mysql but it's for 10.10
[00:12] <bora_> thanks
[00:12] <Uchiha_Itachi> 660 would be much better
[00:13] <exutux> depends
[00:13] <kiichiro> you seriously just got my server up 10x quicker thank you so much maalac
[00:13] <maalac> exutux: sorry my bad, i assume its just an ordinary folder..
[00:13] <Darael> bora_: The bot-comment was to suggest that you should talk about Oneiric only in #ubuntu+1, rather than here in #ubuntu.  That's all.
[00:13] <exutux> maalac: isn't a good idea too give permission to all-world :)
[00:14] <garfield> does any one here use and game emulators?
[00:14] <Darael> !anyone | garfield
[00:14] <garfield> particularly Xmess
[00:14] <maalac> exutux: ok. i know. :)
[00:15] <maalac> garfield: i do. Have you tried the ps2 emulator?
[00:15] <garfield> maalac: no havent gottden to it yet, Ive downloaded pcsx2 though
[00:15] <garfield> maalac: Im using gelide, but xmess doesnt work
[00:16] <maalac> garfield: me too. but i haven't configured it yet. but my friend got it worknig and  he is playing ps2 games
[00:16] <garfield> nice
[00:16] <garfield> Im gonna pastebin the error output, and hope that someone can help
[00:16] <maalac> garfield: xmess this is new to me..i'll try that ..
[00:17] <bubbles|> hm.. if i compile mysql myself, how do i make sure that package dependencies don't break?
[00:17] <Darael> Got an interesting one here.  Attempting to use the alternate CD to install (I want to fiddle with things, and stuff), but said CD leaves the backlight on the display off.  The brightness function-keys do nothing.  The display is unreadable without any backlight.  Ideas?
[00:18] <tw> I'm trying to use dhclient-exit-hooks.d.  I've tried putting my script file in /etc/dhcp/dhclient-exit-hooks.d and in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-exit-hooks.d.  According to the man page, it should be in the regular dhcp folder.  But as far as I can tell, nothing gets executed. The contents of my script are "touch /tmp/DHCPTEST"
[00:18] <maalac> bubbles|: yes, you might have problems in the future ..
[00:18] <garfield> If anyone is familiar with xmess(its in the repositories) this is the error Im getting http://pastebin.com/xCrZbwDR
[00:18] <bubbles|> so what do i do?
[00:19] <Danniel> hi, there's a correct sequence for ubuntu partitions?
[00:19] <maalac> bubbles|: just make sure that you install all the dependencies requirements.
[00:20] <maalac> garfield: this is something to do with your Video card. have you try glxinfo
[00:20] <bubbles|> what dependencies? if i compile it myself there are no dependencies .. but things like phpmyadmin will probably still depend on the mysql-package in the repository
[00:20] <sudokill> Danniel, no
[00:20] <garfield> maalac: no I havent
[00:20] <chad___> I'm looking at a laptop and wondering if I'll be able to run Ubuntu on it.
[00:21] <sudokill> chad___, it probably will
[00:21] <Danniel> sudokill: but, what is recommended?
[00:21] <Dr_Willis> garfield,  i would say the default config file is using some obsolete option.
[00:21] <maalac> bubbles|: ok. try compiling it and see if you encounter any errors
[00:21] <Dr_Willis> garfield,  been years since i last use xmess and xmame :)
[00:21] <sudokill> Danniel, if you dont care about a seperate home partition then just use one big / and a swap if you want it
[00:21] <garfield> glxinfo says I need to install mesa-utils
[00:22] <garfield> doing that now
[00:22] <Danniel> sudokill: maybe it's better a separate /home
[00:22] <Dr_Willis> garfield,  whats your video chipset?
[00:22] <garfield> ati radeon
[00:22] <sudokill> Danniel, only for reinstalls
[00:22] <Dr_Willis> garfield,  you did insatll the fglrx drivers?
[00:22] <sudokill> Danniel, but i never bother because theres so many root files too
[00:22] <garfield> should I just use the proprietary driver?
[00:22] <maalac> garfield: you need drivers for it to emulate
[00:22] <garfield> not manually
[00:22] <chad___> sudokill: It has both integrated intel graphics and the dedicated Nvidia 540m
[00:22] <Dr_Willis> garfield,  if they are supported.. use the addational-drivers tool (jockey-gtk)
[00:23] <sudokill> chad___, should work fine
[00:23] <frybye> Hi - how to access files on a Nokie N8 phone with 11.04?
[00:23] <Dr_Willis> night all...
[00:23] <Darael> A separate /home doesn't make reinstalls much easier any more.  The installer autodetects an existing /home and preserves it, whether it's on a separate partition or part of /.
[00:24] <garfield> Dr_Willis: so install the proprietary driver witgh additional drivers app?
[00:24] <chad___> sudokill: Alright, I was just worried because of the whole Optimus thing.
[00:24] <maalac> garfield: use firs that came with ubuntu if its supported and later on you can download the proprietary drivers and install it ..
[00:24] <sudokill> chad___, hmm not sure about how well the kernel is
[00:25] <sudokill> i think 2.6.39 will be ok
[00:25] <chad___> sudokill: I don't believe it has Optimus enabled, but I suppose I'm just paranoid.
[00:25] <garfield> well I would prefer the open source driver, but if it doesnt allow the emulation, oh well
[00:25] <Danniel> Darael: oh, very good!
[00:25] <sudokill> chad___, what, the laptop or the kernel?
[00:25] <chad___> sudokill: The laptop
[00:26] <garfield> SystemError: Binary package fglrx has no trusted origin, rejecting
[00:26] <sudokill> chad read a bit of this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1691979
[00:26] <sudokill> bearing in mine its slightly old
[00:27] <sudokill> chad___, seems to work
[00:28] <chad___> sudokill: Thank you very much. I think I read that article a while ago, actually 0.o
[00:28] <sudokill> ok lol
[00:29] <Talaskina> anyone have any info on what encyption types are recoverable?
[00:30] <sudokill> Talaskina, what do you mean
[00:32] <fishscene> By their very nature, encryption is supposed to be non-recoverable. :S
[00:32] <Talaskina> sudokill: there are some encryption schemes out there, methods or types, that have a master key that can be recovered even without the right passphrase, specifically I am trying to find out what standards those are, like is AES effected, or twofish, or whatever. i would prefer to avoid them if possible :)
[00:32] <sudokill> no idea
[00:33] <sudokill> all i know is AES is generally fine and reliable and fast
[00:33] <sudokill> i think youd be safe with plain aes
[00:33] <Talaskina> sudokill: yes, but i am trying to find out if aes does have the recoverable part
[00:33] <maalac> garfield: go to the ati radeon website and see if you find a driver..
[00:34] <garfield> maalac: ok, thanks
[00:34] <garfield> maalac: what about synaptic? Couldnt I just use that?
[00:34] <Nin1> question .. can I get a good ref for where to find info about installing pcmcia cards for ubuntu ?
[00:34] <sudokill> everyone seems to be fully encrypting drives nowadays
[00:35] <maalac> garfield:hmm..i'm not sure. i rarely use that ..
[00:35] <garfield> maalac: apt-get?
[00:35] <Talaskina> sudokill: its the best thing, tho i dont know how much longer it will last, DOJ is trying to force a woman to decrypt her drive
[00:35] <sudokill> DOJ?
[00:35] <Talaskina> sudokill: department of justice, america
[00:35] <sudokill> i used to fully encrypt my drives years ago
[00:36] <sudokill> but then i realised i dont need it lol
[00:36] <sudokill> Talaskina, i dont know the laws in US. in the UK by law you have to reveal password
[00:37] <sudokill> but if you havent got illegal stuff, just your bank details etc then dont see what you got to worry about with the government
[00:37] <Talaskina> sudokill: i saw that, you could just forget it or, idk house the actual info out of country
[00:37] <sudokill> i know
[00:37] <sudokill> i dont know how it works because anyone could easily forget a long password
[00:38] <jeffreyf> Hi...I have vids I need to rotate and also convert to mpg or mp4.....any ideas??
[00:39] <Talaskina> sudokill: i never liked that analogy, I have data and i perfer it to be encrypted so no one can see, even if its nothing illegal, I wouldnt want random goverment people shuffling through my stuff just because they 'suspect' something,
[00:39] <sudokill> meh i wouldnt care
[00:39] <billy2007> my computer wont detect my wirless usb adapter ive tried ndiswrapper and that just says no hardware found im out of ideas
[00:39] <sudokill> i think the whole "privacy" thing is overkill nowadays
[00:39] <Talaskina> sudokill: at this point its half principle, and half protection of private data.
[00:40] <sudokill> well the laws are different all over the world
[00:40] <sudokill> you can find them on google
[00:41] <jamesensor> hello, can someone help me regarding disk load unload cycles in ubuntu 10.10?
[00:43] <tiox> Odd: The problem kinda fixed itself.
[00:43] <axisys> i corrupted my grib2 boot loader by runing these command: mkdir /boot/temp; extlinux --install /boot/temp
[00:43] <axisys> is there was to fix it now
[00:44] <axisys> now it boots to syslinux 4.02 with boot: prompt and error: no config file found
[00:44] <tiox> Don't give up hope: Google it or wait for somebody with more experience guide you.
[00:44] <axisys> can't go anywhere from there
[00:44] <tiox> to guide you*
[00:44] <axisys> tiox: that was to me?
[00:44] <tiox> Yep. Sorry I can't be of any help/
[00:45] <tiox> (I'd be asking the same questions, lol)
[00:47] <realjoe> hi I am looking for grub2 themes, that can easily be installed, where can I find them?
[00:49] <maalac> garfield: you can try ..
[00:49] <garfield> maalac: yeah, I just downloaded it from the site, and am using this wiki: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Natty_Installation_Guide
[00:50] <caoxiaomin> 这里有中国人吗
[00:52] <Alnada_Rigel> anyone aware of how to install gsteaming 32-bit plugins on 64-bit sysetm?
[00:53] <benonsoftware> Hi all

[00:53] <fishscene> Hi
[00:53] <rypervenche> !cn | caoxiaomin
[00:56] <lapaga> not that it is really important but because of a low ram system I have set it so that update manager only checks every two weeks...
[00:56] <lapaga> I still get it checking every day...any ideas how to turn this off
[00:56] <Osmodivs> Hello. Why even after i deleted a program in Ubuntu Software Center or Synaptic, there are still folders of that program in /home/.program?
[00:56] <jamesensor> anyone heard anything about ubuntu screwing hard disks? High frequency of load/unload cycles
[00:57] <Osmodivs> Some of them are 150MB+
[00:57] <Daekdroom> Osmodivs, because Ubuntu Software Center and Synaptic don't purge programs by default.
[00:58] <Daekdroom> When you only uninstall them, it leaves all configuration files behind
[00:58] <afeijo> help! I enabled ccsm in my new ubuntu 11, now I have no vertical toolbar!
[00:58] <xangua> afeijo: enable unity/launcher lugin
[00:58] <afeijo> xangua, I do not have alt+f2 ether
[00:59] <afeijo> xangua, it wasn't easy to get to an terminal to install xchat and get here too lol
[00:59] <xangua> contro+alt+t for terminal
[00:59] <Osmodivs> Daekdroom: So, What should I do?
[00:59] <xangua> .....
[00:59] <afeijo> xangua, no shortcut works
[00:59] <xangua> or just clic in the ubuntu icon to run apps afeijo
[00:59] <Daekdroom> Osmodivs, delete those folders manually.
[00:59] <Daekdroom> (if you wish)
[00:59] <afeijo> xangua, what icon??? I have none
[01:00] <afeijo> I cannot move any open window too
[01:00] <afeijo> xangua, cant I change something in ccsm to fix it?
[01:00] <xangua> (19:58:28) xangua: afeijo: enable unity/launcher lugin
[01:00] <Daekdroom> afeijo, it looks like you're not running compiz
[01:00] <Osmodivs> Daekdroom: Ok, thx
[01:00] <Daekdroom> run 'unity' in a terminal
[01:00] <afeijo> xangua, I did try to run unity
[01:00] <afeijo> Daekdroom, just done, didnt help
[01:00] <afeijo> Daekdroom, how to check for compiz?
[01:00] <afeijo> cube is working
[01:02] <chewyTree> For some reason, when i click on the network tab on the top panel ,it wont show any wireless connections.  It says, Wireless is disabled by hardware switch.  Can someone Help me?
[01:02] <billy2007> hi i have have 2 wireless recivers one built into my laptop one usb my laptops working fine but the usb is recognized in ndiswraper but not in the network manager
[01:02] <afeijo> what a mess...
[01:02] <afeijo> I cant move any window, nor resize it
[01:02] <h00k> chewyTree: check for a hardware switch on your laptop and switch it the other way
[01:03] <afeijo> brb
[01:04] <chewyTree> h00k, Thanks, i think i found it.  Switch the tab but nothing happened
[01:05] <chewyTree> h00k, I may need to restart, lets see.  Thanks
[01:05] <h00k> chewyTree: you shouldn't, give it a second to flip, then check the nm-applet again
[01:05] <garfield> yeah installing the proprietary driver didnt help at all with xmess
[01:05] <h00k> or...just restart
[01:06] <rbrtzv> anyone here good with wine?
[01:07] <centHOGG> rbrtzv: i hear cheese is

[01:11] <mbrochh> hey folks. i am running ubuntu in a virtualbox. i need to ssh into a customers machine. the customer wants my public ssh key and my static ip. obviously i don't have a static ip. are there any ticks I could do? Maybe with dyndns or so?
[01:12] <Chipzzz> mbrochh: if you're ssh'ing into his machine you don't need a static IP
[01:13] <afeijo> ok! how can I proper config unity + compiz ??
[01:13] <uRock> mbrochh, how often does your ISP change your IP?I understand that the person on the other end is opening the firewall for you
[01:13] <carandraug> Chipzzz, unless the costumer wants to limit ssh connections from his IP. That's probably the case
[01:13] <mbrochh> uRock, i think it changes quite often.
[01:14] <mbrochh> Chipzzz, I THINK I will be connecting to an Amazon EC2 machine or so. I think those open ports for static IPs to improve security
[01:14] <gskellig-mobile> can someone help me restore grub on Ubuntu? I'm using rescatux right now.
[01:15] <gskellig-mobile> kind of panicking
[01:15] <Chipzzz> careandraugh: good point but in that case, I don't think dyndis will help
[01:15] <Chipzzz> (dyndns)
[01:15] <uRock> I wouldn't think they'd change it more than once every 24 hours. Otherwise it would mean a lot of overhead for their routers to keep updating the routing tables
[01:16] <th0r> mbrochh: if your customer is using a whitelist for ssh access there is no way you can spoof a static IP. Either you will have to arrange a static IP with your isp, or the customer will have to settle for your public key and give up the whitelist
[01:17] <Lance> did anyone notice that VLC skipped at the beginning of playing audio files in ubuntu 11.04?
[01:17] <uRock> if anything you should be able to offer a range like 69.109.144.* which would only open up 255 possibilities on their end
[01:17] <gskellig-mobile> anyone?
[01:18] <uRock> !grub
[01:18] <gskellig-mobile> yeah I've tried that
[01:18] <carandraug> mbrochh, or tell him to replace an IP whitelist for an username based whitelist
[01:18] <gskellig-mobile> and some.other solutions
[01:18] <seanmc98> hello. if i am making ubuntu 11.04 pendrive with a 4gb usb drive can i set a persistant file size for storing changes? if so what size do you suggest?
[01:18] <afeijo> ok! got unity back :) found it in ccsm, but I still do not have alt+tab nor I can move any window
[01:19] <gskellig-mobile> I'm trying rescatux now.
[01:19] <uRock> maybe try lilo
[01:19] <gskellig-mobile> Lilo?
[01:19] <Chipzzz> gskellig-mobile: you should be able to run grub-install from a live disk
[01:20] <carandraug> seanmc98, I'd say in that case you won't be using the rest of the pen for anything else so I'd take over the entire space
[01:20] <seanmc98> carandraug: so how big 1.5gig? or 2gig?
[01:21] <gskellig-mobile> chipzzz I got an error
[01:21] <carandraug> seanmc98, ALL of it. If you create it with the USB disk creator, there's a bar. Move the bar to the end
[01:21] <gskellig-mobile> something about block error
[01:22] <Chipzzz> gskellig-mobile: what was the error?
[01:22] <seanmc98> thank you
[01:22] <tiox> afeijo: You really like Unity?
[01:22] <gskellig-mobile> can't remember, hold on
[01:22] <carandraug> seanmc98, but I find it even better to just install Ubuntu on the USB stick (instead of creating a live USB stick with a persistent file
[01:22] <seanmc98> it said oops there is not enough space
[01:22] <gskellig-mobile> I don't have Ubuntu on my USB anymore, because I put rescatux on it

[01:23] <seanmc98> carandraug: how do u go about doin that? i am following the guide according to http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download
[01:23] <seanmc98> i am on windows 7
[01:23] <fedora_newb> anyone know where I could get the ubuntulooks to get a theme to appear correctly?
[01:23] <tlhunter> can someone tell me where the boot error logs are written on disk?
[01:23] <tiox> If I had the money for a 250 GB USB flash drive, the things I would do with it...
[01:23] <p1l0t> In the latest firefox browser for 11.04 how do you change the user agent?
[01:23] <edbian> tlhunter: /var/log/
[01:23] <edbian> tlhunter: Somewhere in there
[01:24] <Chipzzz> lol @ tiox
[01:24] <edbian> p1l0t: You need to install an add-on for that I think.
[01:24] <p1l0t> no about:config aye?
[01:24] <tiox> I don't think that's necessary,.
[01:24] <tiox> There's a key in about:config for it.
[01:24] <tiox> Then again, go to #firefox.
[01:24] <p1l0t> I can't find it though. It is different from older versions
[01:24] <carandraug> seanmc98, oh! Ouch. Sorry, haven't deal with windows in many many years. No idea how to do it. I'd say, burn the iso on a CD. Boot from a CD and during the install steps, when it asks if you want Ubuntu to take the whole disk or to install side by side with windows, choose manual, and install on the USB stick
[01:25] <carandraug> seanmc98, that gives you a small Ubuntu install that you can take anywhere (but it's no good to install on other computers)
[01:25] <tlhunter> thanks edbian
[01:25] <wsbl-uhpd651> Good evening.  I just have really quick question.  Easy to answer.  UFW firewall.  Do you have to enable it every time you log in?  Or is it enabled for system startup every time - after you command it to be enabled the first time?
[01:25] <edbian> tlhunter: did you find what you were looking for?
[01:25] <tlhunter> my /var/log/boot is blank, I think I'm SOL trying to debug my issue
[01:25] <p1l0t> #firefox is idle :/
[01:25] <seanmc98> carandraug: thats all i want untill i get me own computer
[01:25] <Chipzzz> tlhunter,edbian: /var/log/boot
[01:25] <p1l0t> wait maybe not
[01:25] <edbian> tlhunter: What are you trying to do?  Bigger picture?
[01:25] <invisiblek> my iwl3945 constantly disconnects. anyone else seen this at all?
[01:25] <tiox> (Sorry p1l0t, priorities are priorities, we'll help here if everyone in #firefox is playing online idle, hehe)
[01:26] <invisiblek> never had this problem in gentoo, switched to ubuntu for simplicity on the laptop
[01:26] <egopine> whats the ubuntu off topic channel?
[01:26] <tlhunter> my VPS died, and I'm in 'repair mode' trying to figure out what happened
[01:26] <tw> How do I make ubuntu figure out which network I'm attached to and update configs accordingly? My network is set up via dhcp so if there was a way to execute a post-up script, that'd be ideal.  I've tried dhclient-exit-hooks.d but as far as I can tell, those scripts don't get executed.
[01:26] <tiox> UHm, #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:26] <wsbl-uhpd651> Can anyone answer a very simple question about the UFW firewall inherent to Ubuntu?
[01:27] <carandraug> seanmc98, so you think you can do those? It's not too hard. I don't know what tool to burn a iso on windows. The ubuntu wiki talked about infrarecorder
[01:27] <dimm0k> anyone know how switch metamodes on a thinkpad notebook?
[01:27] <edbian> tlhunter: look at dmesg.  It's a great all purpose log.
[01:27] <tlhunter> it's blank too :(
[01:27] <seanmc98> carandraug: i already am creating the usb drive
[01:27] <wsbl-uhpd651> If you enable the UFW firewall once - do you have enable it again every time you log in?
[01:27] <edbian> tlhunter: Look at the old ones.  They have numbers
[01:28] <Jordan_U> tlhunter: So it currently fails to boot?
[01:28] <seanmc98> lowered the space to 2.1gb to leave some room for the iso
[01:28] <tlhunter> I think the virtualization software is doing something weird
[01:28] <tlhunter> there aren't any dmesg.# files
[01:29] <wsbl-uhpd651> Does anyone currently on here use the UFW firewall?  I have a very simple question.
[01:29] <centHOGG> negative
[01:29] <Chipzzz> tw: check the man for interfaces... you can specify a post-up command there
[01:29] <edbian> tlhunter: There should be on Ubuntu.
[01:29] <dimm0k> anyone know how switch metamodes on a laptop?  there's no keypad!
[01:29] <Jordan_U> tlhunter: What symptoms are you seeing? I'm guessing since it's a VPS you are just seeing a lack of services (http / ssh)?
[01:29] <edbian> wsbl-uhpd651: The question is hard to answer yet easy for you to figure out.
[01:29] <seanmc98> carandraug: am i doing the right steps if i always want to bioot into ubuntu and use it anywhere with the pendrive? or is there a seperate way?
[01:30] <tlhunter> none of the services are up (e.g. trying to SSH and hit it with a browser)
[01:30] <edbian> wsbl-uhpd651: iptables (the backend to ufw) does not save changes by default but it is always on.
[01:30] <edbian> tlhunter: ping
[01:30] <tlhunter> parallels web interface tells me the only thing running is init
[01:30] <carandraug> dimm0k, there should be a key for that. Look for blue words NumLK on the keyboard.
[01:30] <wsbl-uhpd651> edbian: OK.  So you are telling me the ufw firewall is on by default anyway?
[01:30] <Jordan_U> tlhunter: Can you pastebin the contents of /boot/grub/grubenv ?
[01:30] <edbian> tlhunter: How are you looking at log files? Are you logged in locally?
[01:30] <edbian> wsbl-uhpd651: I don't know.
[01:31] <tlhunter> I told parallels to restart in 'repair mode', which reboots the old server contents under /repair/
[01:31] <edbian> tlhunter: Not familiar with parallels but ok
[01:31] <dimm0k> carandraug: oh crap, got it!  thanks!
[01:31] <tlhunter> so now I can SSH into it temporarily, but it's not running the regular OS
[01:32] <carandraug> seanmc98, I prefer my way. What you did takes (I think) more space and is slower but allows you to install Ubuntu in any computer. Mine doesn't (but boots faster). It's like a normal install but on a hard drive where the size is the same as the USB stick
[01:32] <carandraug> dimm0k, no problem
[01:32] <Jordan_U> tlhunter: If your VPS is using grub2 (the default in Ubuntu) and /boot/grub/grubenv contains "recordfail=true" then you at least know that you are getting as far as grub, but not as far as running /etc/init.d/grub-common .
[01:32] <edbian> tlhunter: Sounds like logging is turned off.  Still, the old log files should be in there.
[01:33] <seanmc98> well all i want to be able to do is boot into ubuntu using the pendrive and anything i do on there save to pendrive
[01:33] <tw> Chipzzz: No dice. It looks like interfaces run by NetworkManager don't execute the /etc/network/if-<option>.d scripts.
[01:33] <tlhunter> both the /boot and /repair/boot directories are empty, I'm thinking parallels is doing something silly
[01:33] <ssquirrel> hello
[01:33] <edbian> tlhunter: If /boot is empty you're missing grub...
[01:34] <Jordan_U> tlhunter: It's possible that, like many VPS providers, they are having the virtual machine load the kernel directly, without a separate bootloader. Which would mean no grub.
[01:35] <Chipzzz> tw: I think you're right about that... you could turn off nm, though
[01:35] <tlhunter> thanks Jordan_U
[01:35] <tlhunter> if I chmod a-x a bunch of services in /etc/init.d, does that disable them from running at boot?
[01:36] <carandraug> seanmc98, then I would install Ubuntu on the USB stick (rather than making a Live USB stick. You'll need a CD with Ubuntu (or another USB stick to use as install)
[01:36] <edbian> tlhunter: it should yes
[01:36] <edbian> tlhunter: not sure what the a does.  But if the files are not executable (-x) they wont' execute
[01:36] <Jordan_U> tlhunter: You're welcome.
[01:36] <tlhunter> thanks edbian
[01:36] <edbian> tlhunter: sure
[01:37] <seanmc98> carandraug: i was reading from http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ that the way i am doing it will work
[01:38] <carandraug> seanmc98, yes. And like I told you, it will. I'm just explaining that there other way, and the difference to it.
[01:39] <Co11ym00r3> hi guys
[01:39] <seanmc98> oh ok thank you for all your help carandraug
[01:39] <seanmc98> getting ready to boot into ubuntu now
[01:39] <seanmc98> be back soon
[01:40] <edbian> Co11ym00r3: hello
[01:40] <carandraug> edbian, I believe the a means all (but I've been wrong before)
[01:41] <carandraug> edbian, yes. I just checked the man page. 'a' means all. a+x reads 'add (+) the execute bit (x) to all users (a)'
[01:41] <edbian> carandraug: I would do sudo chmod -xR .
[01:41] <edbian> carandraug: aaahhhh  not all files but all users
[01:41] <edbian> carandraug: right-o
[01:42] <carandraug> edbian, o-x removes the execute from the owner
[01:42] <carandraug> of the file
[01:42] <edbian> carandraug: Never used it like that! :)
[01:42] <anomaliz> hello
[01:43] <carandraug> edbian, personally, I prefer the numeric mode 744. But it's handy to know the syntax as many people prefer this
[01:43] <edbian> carandraug: yes me too.  Thanks :)
[01:43] <carandraug> edbian, actually. o is the group that owns the file. u is for the user that owns the file
[01:43] <seanmc98> carandraug: i need your opinion. what is better.. mint or ubuntu?
[01:44] <edbian> seanmc98: mint
[01:44] <edbian> seanmc98: but this is #ubuntu so I'm gonna get yelled at now :P
[01:44] <carandraug> seanmc98, I believe that's a matter of taste. I never used mint myself. Seen it once and wasn't impressed
[01:44] <centHOGG> linux for desktops = joke
[01:44] <seanmc98> well ubuntu is the first linux OS i have ever tried
[01:45] <edbian> seanmc98: Ubuntu is great! :D
[01:45] <seanmc98> but the problem i have been haiving is i boot ubuntu from a CD
[01:45] <carandraug> seanmc98, ubuntu is nice. You may want to try other distros later. Many Linux users are afflicted with distro hoping. I've tried Debian and Arch as well
[01:46] <seanmc98> and i only have wireless so it installs the drivers and says reboot to finish installation and it pops out cd and boots to windows
[01:46] <tw> Chipzzz: It turns out run-parts didn't like my script (bad format, it says).  if-up.d/ does get called by nm.
[01:47] <carandraug> seanmc98, hmmm.. yeah. Install on a USB stick then. It should solve your problem
[01:48] <seanmc98> that should!! thanks man you are so much help!!
[01:48] <Gracenotes> hi. I'm having serious issues with graphical login (safe mode/root terminal work fine). according to auth.log, I log in then immediately log off, because something important crashes, it seems
[01:48] <canu-qumm> hey
[01:49] <Chipzzz> tw: I'm surprised at that... I've had problems setting up wireless cards & had the impression that nm would mess up interfaces configurations
[01:49] <canu-qumm> erm, i'm on ubuntu 10.10 and I recently got emerald theme manager.
[01:49] <invisiblek> lets see, disabled hw_scan on iwl3945, well see if that helps (even though modinfo says it's deprecated)
[01:49] <canu-qumm> it doesnt work.
[01:49] <canu-qumm> Well, I successfully imported the themes to it, but when I click on a theme, it does not change anything.
[01:49] <Gracenotes> it usually seems to be after mucking with nvidia's X settings, but there's nothing particularly wrong with Xorg.0.log or.. any log, that I can see
[01:50] <Chipzzz> tw: maybe it's a version thing... what version are you running?
[01:50] <Gracenotes> I'm a tad tired of having to re-install Ubuntu... uh... three times in three days, now?
[01:50] <seanmc98> can i make linux mint bootable from usb drivetoo ?
[01:51] <canu-qumm> umm.
[01:51] <invisiblek> eww, still 41% packet loss over 10 seconds
[01:52] <tw> Chipzzz: this is 11.04. my nm version is 0.8.4~git.2011<some numbers get cut off>
[01:52] <canu-qumm> why isn't emerald working on 10.10? i click on a theme and it doesn't do anything... yes, themes are successfully imported. I can't see the problem..
[01:52] <benonsoftware> hi all
[01:52] <Jordan_U> Gracenotes: Can you do a terminal login, run "gnome-session 2>&1 | tee /tmp/gnome-session-log.txt" then pastebin /tmp/gnome-session-log.txt ?
[01:52] <xindz> Guys are "Not cloning cgroup for unused subsystem ns" something to worry about?
[01:52] <xindz> Got that "error" all over my /var/log/messages file
[01:53] <qin> canu-qumm: emerald --replace, and emerald is dead software, thus not supported.
[01:53] <Chipzzz> tw: maybe they've improved it since I was having that problem (back in the late 9.x & early 10.x versions)... thanks for that
[01:53] <Gracenotes> Jordan_U: ah. I assume there is output, but once I do xinit gdm, or gnome-session I suppose, I can't see it. tee makes lots of sense >_> brb
[01:53] <canu-qumm> qin: I made it work on 11.04, it's amazing.. you're probably right on the dead part.
[01:53] <canu-qumm> qin: it's still popular around deviantArt though.
[01:53] <tw> Chipzzz: np, try to run the directory with run-parts manually and see if it craps out on you like mine did.
[01:54] <carandraug> seanmc98, I believe you can install any Linux on a USB stick and boot from it (different from making a Live USB/CD)
[01:54] <seanmc98> whats the difference fom booting from one and a live USB?
[01:54] <Chipzzz> tw: thanks, that's a good idea... I'll keep it in mind for next time around :)
[01:55] <qin> canu-qumm: Yeah, pity, could have decor ala Mathew Farrel ;(
[01:55] <seanmc98> hmmm use 8 gig flash drive for ubuntu bootable pendrive and use 4 gig for storing files or vice versa
[01:55] <carandraug> seanmc98, you can install on the USB stick (as if it was just another HD), or you can make a Live USB (with or without a persistent file). I explained you this 10min ago
[01:55] <riz0n> Hey guys I just installed ubuntu 11.04. A couple of things -- first I'm not wild about the new interface. Is there a way to go back to old version, or at least move the sidebar on the left to the bottom of the screen?
[01:56] <qin> !classic | riz0n
[01:56] <seanmc98> lol i am sorry. i want to install on USB stick
[01:56] <riz0n> kewl
[01:56] <riz0n> can KDE loaded just like the old days sudo apt-get kde
[01:57] <benonsoftware> riz0n: Pretty sure you can
[01:57] <riz0n> Also if I should choose to keep "Unity" is there a way to move the task bar to the top or bottom of the screen instead of having it hover the left hand side of the screen?
[01:57] <carandraug> seanmc98, burn the iso on a CD (you already have a Ubuntu CD so this is already done). Boot from the CD and choose to install. During the install steps, when it asks if you want Ubuntu to take the whole disk or to install side by side with windows, choose manual, and install on the USB stick
[01:58] <seanmc98> k i will be gone doing tat
[01:58] <Blackoakx22> Its seanmc98
[02:00] <invisiblek> think i might have got it
[02:00] <rawfodog> Hey, I was wondering how I wopuld update my linux kernal easily ?
[02:00] <invisiblek> disabled hw_scan on iwl3945, switched from network-manager to wicd
[02:00] <invisiblek> 0% packet loss
[02:00] <riz0n> rawfodog: sudo aptitude safe-upgrade
[02:00] <ssquirrel> hello ... does anyone know the correct syntax for /etc/security/limits.conf to include everyone but one person or two?
[02:00] <rawfodog> sweet
[02:00] <canu-qumm> qin: but there's one problem, --replace only does the thing if that terminal is opened
[02:00] <canu-qumm> qin: if I close it, emerald goes down.
[02:00] <qin> canu-qumm: Alt-F2
[02:00] <benonsoftware> rawfodog: What version of ubuntu fo you have?
[02:00] <rawfodog> 11
[02:01] <rawfodog> My kernal is.38 tho
[02:01] <rawfodog> newest stable is.39
[02:01] <rawfodog> I've been reading it fixed some major issues with unity
[02:01] <ssquirrel> guess not
[02:01] <benonsoftware> rawfodog: ok run $ sudo apt-get update then $ apt-cache search kernel-image and now install kernel by explicitly specifying version number:
[02:01] <riz0n> do u guys know the graphics setting that allowed you to move the window and it would wiggle and wobble around until you dropped it? how do you set that up with the new unity?
[02:01] <benonsoftware> $ sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.xx-yy-generic
[02:02] <Chipzzz> ssquirrel: man limits.conf
[02:02] <canu-qumm> qin: oh right, gotta add it to list of startup apps.
[02:02] <qin> canu-qumm: No
[02:03] <Gracenotes> Jordan_U: hm... I run xinit gnome-session... it says gnome-user-share can't be started as root, and additionally the login screen never shows up
[02:03] <Phr3d13> hi all, asking again: anyone ever able to get a pci vt6410 ide card working in ubuntu 10.10?
[02:03] <Gracenotes> doing xinit gdm does show the login screen, but has no real stderr/stdin output
[02:03] <qin> canu-qumm: In ccsm (compiz) set window decorator (propably there is way to do it with gconf too)
[02:04] <Jordan_U> Gracenotes: You should not be running anything as root. Are you?
[02:04] <wabznasm> riz0n: install ccsm (compiz config settings manager) and there's an animation setting in there somewhere for wobbly windows
[02:04] <Gracenotes> well it is a root terminal :/ yeah, that was silly of me.
[02:04] <Gracenotes> I'll su as myself and try again
[02:05] <qin> Gracenotes: he?
[02:05] <Jordan_U> Gracenotes: I thought you were using the failsafe terminal option from GDM (the Gnome login screen).
[02:05] <canu-qumm> qin: erm.. k
[02:05] <canu-qumm> qin: do you know how exactly bmpanel2 works? excuse me if you've never heard of it.
[02:05] <Gracenotes> Jordan_U: no, that fails
[02:05] <Chipzzz> Gracenotes: "sudo -i" is recommended
[02:05] <Gracenotes> additionally, failsafe x mode fails
[02:05] <qin> canu-qumm: bmpanel? not idea, using dzen or tint
[02:06] <Jordan_U> Gracenotes: Do you see the GDM screen at all?
[02:06] <Gracenotes> I mean booting up grub into recovery mode, dropping to root terminal, which just has VESA
[02:06] <Gracenotes> Jordan_U: yes. and I type in my password. And there's a blank screen, and I'm back at the login screen.
[02:06] <canu-qumm> qin: it's a netwm compatible panel for x11, pretty fun actually
[02:06] <canu-qumm> qin: it's written in C, so it's fast as hell.
[02:06] <Gracenotes> er s/VESA/VGA/ display
[02:07] <danny__> hello I was wondering if anyone could help me set up a remote desktop
[02:07] <piero> Where can I find help about gnome3 on ubuntu 11.04?
[02:07] <qin> Gracenotes: If any, framebuffer
[02:07] <Phr3d13> piero: try the ubuntu+1 chat room
[02:08] <qin> Phr3d13: #ubuntu+1 in for 11.10
[02:08] <qin> !gnome3 | piero
[02:08] <canu-qumm> /var/lib/dpkg can't be ran by 2 processes? only 1? that sucks..
[02:08] <Phr3d13> i thought it was for 11.04 my bad
[02:09] <Gracenotes> actually, when I run gdm from root terminal, between the flashing blank screens is a white x terminal, for a fraction of a second
[02:09] <krux> piero the gnome website has also a jhbuild way of getting gnome3.. and they got step by steps..
[02:09] <ugly_duck> what stops unity from running
[02:09] <qin> Gracenotes: Thats xterm
[02:09] <Gracenotes> yeah
[02:09] <danny__> hello I was wondering if anyone could help me set up a remote desktop
[02:09] <Gracenotes> and then it goes back to gdm login screen
[02:09] <piero> Well, I'm using gnome-3-team packages and catalyst driver. But gnome-shell keeps using VESA, it doesn't seen to be using any hardware acceleration. My screen is blinking a lot of times
[02:09] <Phr3d13> anyone ever able to get a pci vt6410 ide card working in ubuntu 10.10?
[02:09] <BioHazard9907> how can I tell apt to ignore package dependencies
[02:09] <krux> http://live.gnome.org/Jhbuild
[02:09] <Gracenotes> I suppose I'll poke it more, try to make it give an error message
[02:10] <centHOGG> them cheapo via raid cards
[02:10] <Phr3d13> yeah
[02:10] <Phr3d13> i can only find old instructions and none of them work anymore
[02:10] <Gracenotes> I should mention, this usually happens after I muck with nvidia X settings
[02:10] <Gracenotes> using the graphical client
[02:10] <Gracenotes> but not always
[02:11] <Gracenotes> and it's solved by reinstalling everything :/
[02:11] <carandraug> BioHazard9907, you can  manually edit the file that lists them. I've done it before but it's obviously not recommended
[02:12] <ugly_duck> Grr... i've played around with trying to get ati drivers to install for my card, but not unity wont run and i'm not sure what drivers to install again to get unity to run
[02:13] <danny__> hello, can someone help me?
[02:13] <ugly_duck> is there an app to reconfigure x for unity?
[02:13] <Phr3d13> danny__: http://www.howtoforge.com/configure-remote-access-to-your-ubuntu-desktop
[02:14] <LmAt> I'm having trouble installing Ubuntu 11.04 on Virtual Box.
[02:14] <LmAt> Has anybody else had the same problem?
[02:14] <Phr3d13> i got it to install, but unity won't work for me
[02:16] <LmAt> During install, it chugs along quite nicely, then it hangs.
[02:16] <Phr3d13> ugly_duck: i think ccsm (compiz) can configure unity
[02:16] <danny__> Phr3d13: thanks, I've tried that but it only allows me too connect when I am on the same network as the computer
[02:16] <axisys> my grub2 boot loader is back.. eehhaa.. thanks to ubottu
[02:16] <Phr3d13> try re-downloading your iso
[02:16] <krux> LmAt, never had any problems and I am installing 11.10 right now.. smoothly
[02:16] <eli_> Hello!
[02:16] <LmAt> krux, I envy you.
[02:16] <eli_> :)
[02:16] <Phr3d13> danny__: did you forward ports correctly?
[02:16] <axisys> i followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub
[02:17] <LmAt> krux, I'm using Windows XP as host, VM VirtualBox...
[02:17] <danny__> not sure
[02:17] <eli_> I have a small problem, when I record videos with my webcam it beeps in the video, do you know whay this happens?
[02:17] <krux> LmAt, maybe iso is bad ?..
[02:17] <krux> install a x86 edition not a 64..
[02:17] <LmAt> krux, Thanks.  I'm on x86...but I have only downloaded the iso once...
[02:18] <LmAt> krux, Perhaps I should try again.
[02:18] <Mik4> hi
[02:18] <Phr3d13> LmAt: try using a torrent client instead of downloading via browser
[02:18] <LmAt> Phr3d13, I don't have a torrent client.
[02:18] <Gracenotes> okay. I managed to start up into "normal" mode by doing 'xinit gnome-session' on the terminal, which shows the desktop, then having a script on the desktop which starts gnome-panel
[02:18] <Mik4> how i can install the gdm themes?
[02:18] <lapaga> not sure if this is ubuntu related or not..am wondering what if anything is causing hits to the firewall from china on port 27977 every 15 minutes or so...it does not happen in windows
[02:18] <LmAt> Phr3d13, Why?  Is it more reliable?
[02:18] <qin> !md5 | LmAt
[02:18] <Gracenotes> :/
[02:18] <arosen1> Anyone know what package on ubuntu I need to get rid of  error: mysql.h: No such file or directory?
[02:19] <Phr3d13> LmAt: they download faster with less problems usually
[02:19] <carandraug> LmAt, in a way. Automatic check of the file during downloading and at the end
[02:19] <LmAt> sure.  That makes sense.
[02:20] <nightrid3r> arosen1 mysql-dev
[02:20] <Phr3d13> danny__: http://portforward.com/   and   http://www.whatismyip.com/
[02:21]  * LmAt is redownloading...
[02:21] <ugly_duck> i types unity and bingo it came up
[02:21] <ugly_duck> weird
[02:21] <arosen1> nightrid3r: E: Couldn't find package mysql-dev
[02:22] <Phr3d13> ugly_duck: maybe tinkering with some other settings prior to doing that fixed it
[02:22] <Phr3d13> anyone ever able to get a pci vt6410 ide card working in ubuntu 10.10?

[02:23] <greg> hello all

[02:23] <arosen1> Anyone know what package on ubuntu I need to get rid of  error: mysql.h: No such file or directory?
[02:23] <canu-qumm> why does the font on my panel look white when they *should* look black.
[02:24] <canu-qumm> the panel is white, so I'm pretty much blind right now.
[02:24] <Phr3d13> eli_ do you have a dell laptop?
[02:24] <greg> i just need my script to display information about currently logged in users
[02:24] <greg> so do I add the 'users' command on a new line, or the 'who' command?
[02:24] <Rcor> Canu Theme

[02:27] <woot010100> Hello. I just rebuilt my PC with new mobo, processor and ram. All is 64-bit. The processor is an Intel i5 Quad-Core and I have 16gb ram installed. I am trying to install Ubuntu from the live cd but after it starts loading the cd it falls to ramfs> prompt
[02:27] <centHOGG> woot010100: did you check it with a live cd first
[02:28] <woot010100> the cd im using is a live cd.. it shoudl boot to a full desktop but it just falls to the ramfs> prompt
[02:28] <Phr3d13> eli_: you'll probably have to do some googleing to fix your beeping webcam issue, but i think it might be whatever software you're using
[02:28] <Co11ym00r3> ..
[02:28] <Gracenotes> hm. I've found "xf86CloseConsole: VT_ACTIVATE failed: Input/output error"
[02:28] <Gracenotes> in Xorg.0.log
[02:29] <Gracenotes> but that's not usually there when I fail to log in
[02:29] <eli_> phr3d13, i have been googling, if you cant help i understand that too, can you help me with my "name tab" issue?
[02:29] <Gracenotes> have no idea why my computer hates me
[02:29] <eli_> phr3d13, all the software does it
[02:29] <woot010100> I've been googling this issue for a few hours now and cant find anything to help me through the issue
[02:29] <Phr3d13> eli_: my tab completion works, and it is case sensitive
[02:29] <eli_> why when i come here i am told to google?
[02:30] <eli_> phr3d13, i use xchat
[02:30] <centHOGG> google = handy tool
[02:30] <eli_> general help chat= better handy tool
[02:30] <LmAt> eli_, ++
[02:30] <Phr3d13> are you saying tab completion won't work in xchat or in terminal?
[02:30] <eli_> xchat
[02:31] <Phr3d13> i don't think it does
[02:31] <woot010100> if i remember right, its saying it cannot find my hard disc drive... but it shouldn't need a hard disc drive to boot a live cd properly, correct?
[02:31] <eli_> that sux
[02:31] <Phr3d13> sounds like bad media woot
[02:31] <carpio> hi i cant use flash player in google earth for ubuntu 11.04 the flash player dont work in google earth for ubuntu 11.04
[02:31] <centHOGG> hiren's bootcd
[02:31] <dimas__> how can i make visible part of a window of a program that dont show complete?
[02:31] <Gracenotes> I might try to figure this out. Anyone have any idea where to look, though? :/ running xinit gnome-session seems to let me log in, using the usual gdm login screen doesn't
[02:31] <woot010100> Phr3d13: as in the disc itself... if so, i'll try a reburn
[02:32] <Gracenotes> I can't reproduce it even if I Try.
[02:32] <ntoombs_> Hi. I'm having problems opeing port 80 for my LAMP server. I have opened port 22 sucessfully for an ssh connection the same way I opened port 80 however, port 80 still remains closed. I have called my ISP multiple times to see if they are not blocking it and they confermed that they are not. The LAMP server is working perfectally on a local connection but no one can see it externally. Can anyone think of a reason why port 80 would
[02:32] <Phr3d13> woot: if that doesn't fix it try re-downloading the iso
[02:32] <woot010100> Phr3d13: will do.. thanks for the assist

[02:35] <Phr3d13> sorry, trying to help too many people at once
[02:35] <carpio>  hi i cant use flash player in google earth for ubuntu 11.04 the flash player dont work in google earth for ubuntu 11.04 for this reason i cant see youtube video from google earth without use the browser in g.earth
[02:35] <canu-qumm> but, exactly how?
[02:36] <eli_> canu-qumm
[02:36] <dimas__> eli_ use xVidCap
[02:36] <eli_> go to synaptic and install the environment
[02:36] <eli_> dimas what is that?
[02:36] <canu-qumm> eli_: yes?
[02:36] <eli_> go to synaptic package manager to install open box
[02:37] <dimas__> eli_sorry you have a problem to use you webcam i mistake
[02:37] <canu-qumm> eli_: i thought it was on the repos.
[02:37] <eli_> when you get to the log in screen select it from the menu below
[02:37] <canu-qumm> eli_: but ok
[02:37] <eli_> you can go to synaptic, i'm sure
[02:37] <eli_> :)
[02:37] <eli_> i dont know terminal syntax
[02:38] <canu-qumm> eli_: oh, synaptic is more secure though, ok then (:
[02:38] <seanmc98> carandraug: i didnt have to boot into ubuntu i can just run and install from windows
[02:38] <seanmc98> just letting you know
[02:38] <eli_> I have a small problem, when I record videos with my webcam it beeps in the video, do you know whay this happens?
[02:39] <canu-qumm> eli_: will it appear on the session selection after logout?
[02:39] <Kindari> Hello folks. Is it possible to install php 5.2 alongside 5.3?
[02:39] <Phr3d13> eli_: is the camera itself beeping or is it piping a beep sound to your computer?
[02:39] <dimas__> i have a window which i cant see some of the bottons and had tryed resizes the window , spand it and nothing...any suggestion?...i know is a command for it but i dont remember
[02:40] <eli_> yes, canu qumm :)
[02:40] <eli_> phr3d13, yes
[02:40] <eli_> oh
[02:40] <eli_> the latter option
[02:40] <rww> dimas__: hold down the alt key, click the window, and drag it to move it
[02:41] <Phr3d13> is it any time you record video or only while on the web?
[02:41] <dimas__> rww i dont need to move it...i need to see it completly
[02:41] <canu-qumm> eli_: kay then
[02:41] <eli_> phr3d13, any time i record
[02:42] <carpio> this does not happen in windows: hi i cant use flash player in google earth for ubuntu 11.04 the flash player dont work in google earth for ubuntu 11.04 for this reason i cant see youtube video from google earth without use the browser in g.earth
[02:42] <qin> dimas__: Maximise - Alt-F10 ?
[02:42] <dimas__> qin that doesnt work either
[02:43] <Phr3d13> eli_: from a quick google it sounds like a privacy thing telling you that you are being recorded, you can probably use the pulse mixer to turn the volume of it all the way down
[02:43] <Phr3d13> eli_: or whatever mixer
[02:43] <eli_> phr3d13, it doesn't beep outside of videos though
[02:44] <dimas__> i been trying to explain that since i got here...the regular ways to adjust the window doesnt work in particular programs as this one...so i know there is a command for that ans someone told me one day
[02:44] <eli_> only in recordings
[02:44] <canu-qumm> eli_: hey
[02:44] <eli_> yo
[02:44] <canu-qumm> eli_: how do you change the themes?
[02:44] <Phr3d13> the beep gets recorded?
[02:44] <eli_> phr3d13, there is no audible beep, other than the one i hear when i play back the video, i dont know how it gets there
[02:45] <ubuntunoobie2903> Why do all online videos except you tube spaz out?
[02:45] <eli_> canu-qumm, i'm sorry, i'm not sure
[02:45] <eli_> but a lot of resources can be found on the web
[02:45] <Phr3d13> eli_: i'll try to locate my webcam in the near future to test and see if mine does it too, but look through your mixers and see if maybe one of those is creating the beep noise in the video
[02:45]  * Phr3d13 is going afk
[02:46] <carpio> THIS DOESNT HAPPEN IN WINDOWS NEVER:  hi i cant use flash player in google earth for ubuntu 11.04 the flash player dont work in google earth for ubuntu 11.04 for this reason i cant see youtube video from google earth without use the browser in g.earth
[02:46] <willwh> hi folks - has anyone successfully got audio beeps with screen/irssi remotely in ubuntu?

[02:54] <carpio> aklee thank you for your information
[02:55] <carpio> buacklee but with wine goole earth will work more low?

[02:55] <carpio> acklee, sorry
[02:55] <willwh> carpio: use tab-completion
[02:55] <carpio> ok
[02:55] <willwh> you can start typing someone's name and push tab, and keep pushing tab to cycle through names
[02:56] <JoeR1> Ok I know this isn't a wine room but I need help with Civ 4 and wine and the winehq room is silent
[02:56] <willwh> JoeR1: tried crossover games? :]
[02:56] <centHOGG> dude Civ4 on wine... good luck
[02:56] <eliotn> wow
[02:56] <eliotn> civ 4 on wine?
[02:57] <JoeR1> centHOGG, it works but there are some rendering issues
[02:57] <eliotn> anyways how can I install ubuntu on my usb drive?
[02:57]  * psusi just plays FreeCiv
[02:57] <willwh> eliotn: there are a few ways - from ubnuntu or what?
[02:57] <JoeR1> freeciv has nothing on civ 4
[02:57] <carpio> acklee: but with wine goole earth will work more slow?
[02:57] <eliotn> I tried usb-creator-gtk
[02:57] <willwh> eliotn: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[02:57] <carpio> or heavy?
[02:57] <eli_> http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=tbph8dYZ
[02:57] <JoeR1> Civ 4 is like this beautiful work of art in afloat in a sea of inequity
[02:57] <eli_> willwh
[02:58] <eliotn> yup and I read that
[02:58] <centHOGG> Civ 4 is bloated
[02:58] <canu-qumm> well this is useless
[02:58] <eli_> canu-qumm ?
[02:58] <canu-qumm> i click on the theme using obconf (openbox theme manager).
[02:58] <canu-qumm> and it wont.. erm.. like
[02:58] <JoeR1> anyway I take it no one here has any help to offer?
[02:58] <canu-qumm> work?
[02:58] <eliotn> The problem is that there are two partitions on there
[02:58] <eli_> i'm sorry, not sure
[02:59] <eliotn> at least that may be part of the issue
[02:59] <willwh> JoeR1: not really - http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/?app_id=1728
[02:59] <willwh> eliotn: gparted would let you combine them
[02:59] <JoeR1> willwh _ i'm not going crossover because they want money
[02:59] <willwh> eli_: I have no idea :]
[02:59] <eliotn> willwh: it only lets me select one of the two partitions
[03:00] <willwh> JoeR1: that's a shame, it's good, and it's good to support people writing/improving things for linux
[03:00] <acklee> carpio: basically Google Earth does consume lots of memory, I do not know exactly the difference between using and not using Wine..
[03:00] <willwh> do you ever donate to projects? :/
[03:00] <eliotn> willwh: same with usb-creator-gtk
[03:00] <willwh> I hate the "I'm not using that, it costs money" argument.
[03:00] <willwh> :(
[03:00] <willwh> wow.... that's scary timing.
[03:00] <JoeR1> hell no, I don't give a crap about linux - it is just an ends to a means for me, I am not a true believer
[03:00] <willwh> < afk
[03:00] <eli_> willwh... nice
[03:01] <centHOGG> linux = servers
[03:01] <willwh> eli_: is it a usb webcam?
[03:01] <willwh> centHOGG: hah, hardly.
[03:01] <willwh> I assume you're a CentOS user :x
[03:01] <Seanmc98|mobile> carandraug: what happens if I accidentally install it over window7
[03:01] <qin> Sweet.
[03:01] <carpio> acklee ok i will try google earth with wine now, thank you very much
[03:01] <eli_> willwh, yes
[03:02] <willwh> it doesn't tell you what it is? on the webcam itself?
[03:02] <acklee> carpio: well, yes please..
[03:03] <eliotn> how do you list all devices in command line?
[03:03] <Seanmc98|mobile> So do these flood bots work?
[03:03] <qin> eliotn: ls /dev/ ? lshw, lspci
[03:04] <Jordan_U> Seanmc98|mobile: Yes, but unless you want to be removed from the channel I wouldn't recommend testing them out...
[03:04] <eliotn> thx
[03:04] <Seanmc98|mobile> They just kick you right?
[03:04] <johannes_> hi I installed a new gpu but ubuntu wont find it, what can I do to "rescan" for the newly installed one?
[03:05] <Jordan_U> Seanmc98|mobile: No, they quiet you temporarily. If you purposely flood *I* will kick you.
[03:05] <willwh> johannes_: you sure it's installed correctly?
[03:05] <lintux> ok i was trying some of the compiz settings and now i can't drag my windows around the screen like i used to would like to know if there is some type of restore settings like the way it was when i installed Ubuntu 11.04?
[03:05] <johannes_> willwh it works with win 7
[03:05] <willwh> johannes_: ah
[03:05] <willwh> I gtg, back in a little bit
[03:06] <ubuntunoobie2903> I am having problems watching online videos (everything except youtube. When the video is not full screen, large portions are whited out. When it is full screen, certain players only show half the picture (I have dual monitors and it would appear to be splitting the image between screens but not actually getting it onto the other screen). How can I fix this problem?
[03:06] <Seanmc98|mobile> Jordan_U: how can you kick me your not a OP THOUGH?
[03:06] <Jordan_U> !ot | Seanmc98|mobile
[03:06] <eli_> can someone help with a beeping webcam?
[03:06] <Seanmc98|mobile> Ubotto STFU
[03:06] <eli_> it only does it in playback
[03:06] <centHOGG> does it not beep in windows
[03:06] <saruji> how does one go about preparing a usb drive for a mini ubuntu iso install?
[03:07] <IdleOne> Seanmc98|mobile: Please keep the language clean
[03:07] <Seanmc98|mobile> saruji: to make a live usb or boot from it
[03:07] <saruji> Seanmc98|mobile to boot from it...but its ubuntu mini and i tried penthumb or whatever and it does not see the iso file
[03:07] <qin> Wonder if centHOGG is badly written bot, or badly writting human...
[03:08] <Seanmc98|mobile> Make a live CD
[03:08] <johannes_> lspci does find the video cared
[03:09] <Jagged2> saruji: some bootable isos you can dd directly to the usb device
[03:09] <qin> johannes_: Fisrt check bios setting.
[03:09] <qin> *first
[03:09] <johannes_> what should I look for?
[03:09] <saruji> Jagged2 nevermind I found unetbootin and that does the job thanks!
[03:09] <qin> johannes_: graphic cards
[03:10] <eli_> why do people ask questions about this problem, but know one know the answer, i am far from the only one who has beeping in the playback from their webcams, please help, i have been googling and asking here, please i will pay you 15 bucks
[03:10] <eli_> no one
[03:10] <johannes_> qin but they both work on this pc with win 7, and lspci can find it, what should I look for within bios?
[03:10] <hexacode> my wireless network connection applet, or top right icon has dissapeared...how do i make it come back?
[03:10] <qin> johannes_: Sorry, misread you, what cards?
[03:11] <Seanmc98|mobile> Ummmmm carandraug I did what u said and now when I start up computer it asks me what OS to boot into
[03:11] <Seanmc98|mobile> I need to get rid if that
[03:11] <hexacode> my wireless network connection applet, or top right icon has dissapeared...how do i make it come back?
[03:11] <johannes_> qin 785g (4200) and amd barts (6850)
[03:11] <Seanmc98|mobile> I chose install to usb
[03:11] <qin> !repeat > hexacode
[03:11] <Seanmc98|mobile> And I removed usb and its still there
[03:11] <consolers> i tried formatting a usb flash drive as ext2, and copied a linux system and installed grub. it boots on one box, but not on another box -- bios doesnt recognize it at boot.  is there some rule that says flash drives have to be fat32/fat16 for the bios to detect it? (the same flash drive was recognized on this 2nd box at boot before when it was fat)
[03:12] <qin> johannes_: And you want then to work at the same time, dual-head?
[03:12] <johannes_> yes
[03:12] <carandraug> Seanmc98|mobile, during installation you have to install on the USB, not on the HD
[03:12] <Seanmc98|mobile> I clicked usb
[03:12] <carandraug> Seanmc98|mobile, that also applies for the bootloader
[03:13] <qin> johannes_: Uhm, never did it.
[03:13] <carandraug> Seanmc98|mobile, that menu that shows up, what options does it show?
[03:13] <Seanmc98|mobile> His do I make it so I will boot to windiest when I start computer
[03:13] <IanLiu> How can I make LC_ALL variable work? I've installed Portuguese translations but LC_ALL=pt_BR.utf8 gedit won't launch translated gedit. Please, can someone help?
[03:13] <Seanmc98|mobile> Choose a OS to boot into. Windows or ubuntu
[03:13] <consolers> btw ubuntu 11.04 kernel wants to load i915.ko for the 82845G video chipset, and that fails, (it should use i810), both the intel and vesa drivers (xorg shipped with 11.04) fail on this chipset --- intel fails to start, vesa gives a blank screen.
[03:14] <carandraug> Seanmc98|mobile, to remove grub and reinstall the windows bootloader you need the windows cd
[03:14] <qin> IanLiu: sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales   Does it fill LC_ALL
[03:14] <hexacode> my wireless network connection applet, or top right icon has dissapeared...how do i make it come back?
[03:15] <benonsoftware> hexacode: Reboot?
[03:15] <eli_> why wont anyone help, i'm using this os, i support and promote and help others when i can,..... i have random beeping in the playback of my webcam video with built in mic, how do i update the drivers? :( thanks
[03:15] <carandraug> Seanmc98|mobile, I never had to do it. Like I said before, I don't use windows in years. And if you installed the bootloader on the HD rather than the USB, you'll need to to do it again
[03:15] <IanLiu> qin: Running that command lists all locales present in my computer followed by "up-to-date"
[03:15] <hexacode> benonsoftware nope
[03:15] <odix> yoyo
[03:16] <carandraug> eli_, maybe no one knows how to help you
[03:16] <odix> whats the best way to set my own nameservers ? /etc/network/interfaces dns-nameservers myip?
[03:16] <eli_> carandraug, you dont know how to update drivers either :(
[03:16] <eli_> for pity  :(
[03:16] <qin> IanLiu: Yes, just checked it, why degit need All?
[03:16] <IanLiu> qin: http://codepad.org/YFl7n9LM
[03:17] <Seanmc98|mobile> carandraug: wait I found out it was in programs
[03:17] <Seanmc98|mobile> I uninstalled it
[03:17] <johannes_> qin mhm doesnt seem to work, I will probably just get an adapter
[03:17] <carandraug> eli_, no. I've installed my own modules once, a long time ago, but I was just following a bunch commands that were given to me. Now I just get hardware that I know I won't have problems with
[03:17] <IanLiu> qin: I want to translate the gedit application, so I set LC_ALL to translate it, but it does not work
[03:17] <Seanmc98|mobile> I got it to boot right into windows
[03:17] <carandraug> Seanmc98|mobile, if it shows there, you installed with Wubi. That's not what you wnat
[03:18] <eli_> too bad huh?
[03:18] <eli_> well how do i turn down the fuzz in my internal mic?
[03:18] <qin> IanLiu: Apparently, you can just export it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables
[03:18] <Seanmc98|mobile> That's what was on the cd when I burnt ubunti iso
[03:18] <eli_> its not an old computer at all
[03:18] <ubuntunoobie2903> I am having problems watching online videos (everything except youtube. When the video is not full screen, large portions are whited out. When it is full screen, certain players only show half the picture (I have dual monitors and it would appear to be splitting the image between screens but not actually getting it onto the other screen). How can I fix this problem?
[03:18] <qin> IanLiu: But there are some bugs filled for "gedit LC_ALL"
[03:18] <carandraug> Seanmc98|mobile, you have to restart the PC and boot from the CD
[03:19] <eli_> ignoring me, thanks you :)
[03:20] <carandraug> Seanmc98|mobile, hmmm.. you seem to be doing this for the first time. Maybe it's not good to install on the USB stick. You may end up accidentaly removing your windows partition
[03:20] <addisonj_> j #node.js
[03:20] <IanLiu> qin: I see. Well, exporting LC_ALL and LANG does not work either, for any program as I can tell
[03:20] <eli_> how can i turn down fuzz in my internal mic!
[03:20] <Seanmc98|mobile> It is my first time
[03:20] <Seanmc98|mobile> I just want a bootable pendrive of ubuntu
[03:21] <IanLiu> qin: running 'export' shows an env variable named "LANGUAGE" which is equal to "en_US:en"
[03:21]  * consolers also trying to get a bootable pendrive
[03:21] <IdleOne> !usb | Seanmc98|mobile
[03:22] <qin> IanLiu: LC_ALL=your_utf gedit (this way)
[03:22] <ntoombs> Hi. I'm having problems opeing port 80 for my LAMP server. I have opened port 22 sucessfully for an ssh connection the same way I opened port 80 however, port 80 still remains closed. I have called my ISP multiple times to see if they are not blocking it and they confermed that they are not. The LAMP server is working perfectally on a local connection but no one can see it externally. Can anyone think of a reason why port 80 would
[03:23] <IanLiu> qin: that was my first attempt, nothing works
[03:23] <ntoombs> i've done sudo nmap -p 80 <IP_ADDRESS> and i get the response '80/tcp open  http'
[03:23] <consolers> i've already trawled google and didnt find any pages on it, not even ones that  said it was a bad idea: i dont want an iso, i wanted the actual filesystem (unpacked) on the flash drive
[03:23] <dli> ntoombs, NAT?
[03:23] <qin> IanLiu: BUg?
[03:23] <ntoombs> port 22 doesn't have any problem getting through the nat firewall. why should port 80?
[03:24] <IanLiu> qin: I will fill a bug, then ;-)
[03:25] <eli_> if you can tell me how to reduce fuzz in my recording, with internal microphone, i can compensate you through pay pal
[03:25] <sharkz> Hi - where can i give the password in remote desktop viewer ?
[03:26] <ubuntunoobie2903> Can anyone help with online video problems?
[03:26] <dli> eli_, fuzz from speakers?
[03:27] <eli_> dli, when i record with my webcam mic, i get beeping, when i record with my internal mic i get feedback
[03:28] <qin> eli_: What recording sofware are you using?
[03:29] <eli_> qin, it happens in every program
[03:29] <almoxarife> eli_: cheap fix, use ear buds
[03:29] <eli_> i'm recording music
[03:29] <eli_> i'm a musician
[03:29] <h00k> !anyone | ubuntunoobie2903
[03:30] <eli_> i dont hear the beeping, it only comes in playback
[03:30] <rbrtzv> can someone answer a Ubuntu newbie on how to update graphic cards?
[03:30] <h00k> eli_: You could check in #ubuntustudio
[03:31] <ubuntunoobie2903> hook: I have asked it, repeatedly. I'll paste it in again. I am having problems watching online videos (everything except youtube. When the video is not full screen, large portions are whited out. When it is full screen, certain players only show half the picture (I have dual monitors and it would appear to be splitting the image between screens but not actually getting it onto the other screen). How can I fix this
[03:31] <ubuntunoobie2903>  problem?
[03:31] <Saruji> hello, installing mini ubuntu onto my already running windows 7 computer, how do i install it side by side with windows?
[03:31] <eli_> h00k, i just want to find the problem here, how do you reduce feedback in recordings, and stop beeping only audible in playback, this is an hardware issue
[03:31] <Jordan_U> Saruji: "mini ubuntu"?
[03:32] <qin> eli_: Test it: arecord -d 60 -t wav test.wav
[03:32] <Saruji> Jordan_U yes
[03:32] <eli_> qin, what is that -_- ?
[03:32] <zykotick9> !mini
[03:32] <Delrayne> So...anyone had any success with Itunes?
[03:32] <h00k> !dualboot | Saruji
[03:33] <Saruji> !mini
[03:33] <qin> eli_: command to record 60 seconds long wav file called test.wav
[03:33] <ubuntunoobie2903> Does anyone else have problems watching online videos?
[03:33] <eli_> qin , and it will beep -__-
[03:34] <Jordan_U> Saruji: The minimal install CD is not the same as "Ubuntu mini remix" (which I only found out about just now from googling). Which are you talking about?
[03:34] <Saruji> ok so read over the dulal boot and minmal install instructions right?
[03:34] <Mechdave> G'day all, does anyone know how to use Evolution 2.32 backups in evolution 2.28?
[03:34] <Saruji> Jordan_U I am talking about the ubuntu minimal install iso
[03:34] <hwq001> ubuntunoobie2903: you are using compiz  right?
[03:35] <ubuntunoobie2903> hwq001: no, adobe flash plugin
[03:35] <Jordan_U> Saruji: Then yes, just follow those instructions.
[03:36] <Saruji> Jordan_U ok if i ask you about anything that i dont understand?
[03:36] <hwq001> ubuntunoobie2903:so you don't use compiz ,if you are using compiz  and Nvidia cards .would get this problem
[03:37] <hwq001> is there any app for google plus in linux ?
[03:37] <ubuntunoobie2903> hwq001: I use the nvidia program to set up the monitors. Is there something I need to turn off in compiz?
[03:37] <almoxarife> hwq001: any browser?
[03:37] <eli_> so no one will help?
[03:38] <qin> eli_: Did you record file I aksed you for?
[03:38] <hwq001> yes,you can try turn off it to check if the problem still there
[03:38] <eli_> qin, where would i put it?
[03:39] <masu> channel
[03:39] <almoxarife> eli_: may I recommend an external mic, and keep it away from the speakers
[03:39] <masu> ?
[03:39] <eli_> my external mic has a beep in playback
[03:39] <qin> eli_: Is beep there?
[03:40] <ubuntunoobie2903> hwq001: what exactly am I turning off?
[03:40] <eli_> qin, beep where, in the recording, yes
[03:40] <Saruji> which do  you guys prefer ubuntu 10.10 or 11.04?
[03:40] <lapaga> yes
[03:40] <chewyTree> Can anyone here help me port foward for transmission?
[03:41] <almoxarife> chewyTree: shoot
[03:41] <qin> eli_: How often? Constant? What card (sound)?
[03:42] <chewyTree> almoxarife, Ive been trying to set up the ports to use transmission for the better part of 2 hours.  Seems like no matter what I do, its always closed
[03:42] <psusi> chewyTree, set your router for forward some ports to you, and configure transmission to use them.. though if your router supports UPnP, this should happen automatically
[03:42] <almoxarife> chewyTree: can you access the firewall between you and the internet?
[03:42] <soreau> chewyTree: Not really a ubuntu-specific issue. You have to configure your router and/or server correctly
[03:42] <eli_> its from the microphone on my webcam, throughout the whole video, i cant hear it, outside of the actual video, i probably should update the driver, it was plug and play, but i cant find the manufacturer of my webcam
[03:42] <nate114578> Hello, I am running Ubuntu virtually and am unable to print. Is that possible?
[03:43] <chewyTree> almoxarife, I think thats the issue.  Verizon has it all blocked, no matter what i set my router as
[03:43] <almoxarife> chewyTree: how are you connected to the internet?
[03:43] <chewyTree> almoxarife, my router is directly connected to the fios box
[03:43] <nate114578> broadband/directly connected
[03:43] <soreau> nate114578: Sure, for various reasons. One of which may be that the virtual machine does not have direct hardware access to whatever the printer connects to
[03:43] <Saruji> Jordan_U hey I already have my usb thumb drive setup to boot from the mini ubuntu iso, the problem i have is with the partitioning screen, could you possibly help me out?
[03:44] <nate114578> my printer shows up but the jobs always fail
[03:44] <almoxarife> chewyTree: if verizon blocks ports then you need to figure out which are not blocked, if they block bittorrent protocol then you are screwed
[03:44] <soreau> nate114578: I'd try it from a live session and make sure it's working there first
[03:45] <soreau> That would at least rule out driver/configuration issue
[03:45] <nate114578> thats what i'll try... thanks!
[03:45] <eli_> its from the microphone on my webcam, throughout the whole video, i cant hear it, outside of the actual video, i probably should update the driver, it was plug and play, but i cant find the manufacturer of my webcam
[03:45] <chewyTree> almoxarife, Its not blocked cause i can DL and upload.  But many peers its hard to connect cause of the ports
[03:45] <prabhakar> good morning to all
[03:45] <kion> Help, After running Pppoeconf and connecting with pppoe to the internet through my wlan0 now after rebooting my wlan0 card will not show any wireless networks please help
[03:46] <zykotick9> Saruji, FYI the partitioning in the LiveCD is easier then the mini cd (why do you want mini exactly?  do you have a reason?)
[03:46] <almoxarife> chewyTree: you installed a software firewall ?
[03:46] <soreau> kion: What wifi chip is it?
[03:46] <acklee> chewyTree: that's about configuring NAT in the router..
[03:46] <chewyTree> almoxarife, nope
[03:46] <kion> Soreau not shure but it was working perfectly before i messed with it
[03:47] <chewyTree> acklee, not that good at networking.  How would i go about that?
[03:47] <soreau> kion: What is the output of 'lspci|grep Network'?
[03:47] <almoxarife> chewyTree: you can acess the firewall setting on your router?
[03:47] <kion> Intel Corporation Ultimate N WiFi Link 5300
[03:48] <prabhakar> i have one virus problem in my system each folder creates duplicate folder with .exe
[03:48] <chewyTree> almoxarife, Ya, its all off and such
[03:48] <almoxarife> chewyTree: off?
[03:48] <soreau> kion: Alright, and does 'iwconfig' show a wlan0 interface?
[03:48] <kion> yes
[03:49] <Abby> Heyy
[03:49] <chewyTree> almoxarife, Will i unchecked Block Anonymous Internet Requests  & Filter Internet NAT Redirection
[03:49] <soreau> kion: Does this show your AP? 'sudo iwlist wlan0 scan | grep -i ssid'
[03:49] <almoxarife> chewyTree: first thing, decide what ports tcp/udp you want to use on transmission
[03:49] <prabhakar> how can i stop the duplicate folders
[03:49] <Jake556778> HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEeeee .....
[03:49] <Jake556778> e..
[03:49] <acklee> almoxarife: transmission usually use udp datagram..
[03:49] <kion> YES!
[03:49] <almoxarife> chewyTree: don't do that, recheck those, those have nothing to do with what you need to set up
[03:49] <kion> sorry for the uppercase
[03:49] <soreau> kion: So the drivers are working. What isn't showing the Ap list as you expect?
[03:50] <kion> correct,
[03:50] <eli_> hey guys, i'm going back to windows, as they have a much more knowledgeble community, though i know the advantages of linux, i'll do what i have to do, good luck with your systems!
[03:50] <Jake556778> how do i cache DNS inquiries on ubuntu without contacting the ISP dns server?
[03:50] <Jake556778> is it possible ?
[03:50] <hardcampa> lol
[03:50] <wabznasm> Jake556778: set up bind9
[03:50] <Jake556778> what is bind9
[03:50] <wabznasm> Jake: Or use an open DNS server
[03:50] <kion> if I click on the networks icon the wireless networks are greyed out and cand see any
[03:50] <almoxarife> Jake556778: yes, simple with 'dnsmasq'
[03:50] <Jake556778> so there is no DNS server already on ubuntu?
[03:51] <soreau> ! who | kion
[03:51] <wabznasm> Jake: It's a DNS server - it will cache DNS requests instead of always going to your DNS provider (ISP or open)
[03:51] <Jake556778> ok that's what i wanted to hear
[03:51] <Jake556778> thanks
[03:51] <Jake556778> TSAAAANK YOOO
[03:51] <kion> sorry for that
[03:51] <qin> !caps > Jake556778
[03:51] <wabznasm> Jake: Ther is a more simple DNS server I saw yesterday while looking through the 'light applications' recommendations for Arch linux, but I forget whatit was now
[03:52] <soreau> kion: Try left-click on the wifi icon and make sure Enable Wireless is checked
[03:52] <almoxarife> arch linux?
[03:52] <littlebearz> almoxarife: light distro 300Mb
[03:52] <kion> soreau: yes it is enabled
[03:52] <kion> soreau: and sudo ifconfig wlan0 up does no good
[03:53] <wabznasm> almoxarife: less user firendly than Ubuntu, but there is something about it that draws me, even though I run Ubuntu right now
[03:53] <soreau> kion: Is NetworkManager running? Check the output of 'ps ax|grep NetworkManager'
[03:54] <kion> soreau: yes i have two processes running
[03:54] <zykotick9> soreau, i can't think of a reason when pppoe over wireless would ever make sense (as you'd be connecting to a router most likely), but i can see how it would cause issues....  i imagine removing the pppoe changes might be required.
[03:54] <acklee> Jake556778: note that if your internet connection through the MikroTik, you can create the DNS server there
[03:54] <soreau> kion: Next thing I would do is left-click on the network icon and select 'Edit Connections..'
[03:54] <soreau> kion: Make sure things are sane there
[03:55] <soreau> zykotick9: I really have no idea what the problem is but maybe he will see it himself while walking through the basic steps
[03:55] <kion> soreau: on my wireless network everything appears greyed out and cannot edit or change anything
[03:56] <soreau> kion: Is it a laptop? HP by chance? Does it have a wifi switch to enable/disable wireless?
[03:57] <kion> no it is an Alienware
[03:57] <zykotick9> soreau, from what i remember (and it's been a LONG time since i used pppoe directly on my system) it creates some sort of virtual adapter and diables the regular network adapter interface - but it's been a long time!
[03:57] <kion> and yes it has something like a switch
[03:57] <soreau> zykotick9: ick
[03:57] <kion> but tried changing it
[03:57] <kion> soreau it is more like a button
[03:58] <ntoombs> I'm having problems opeing port 80 for my LAMP server. I have opened port 22 sucessfully for an ssh connection the same way I opened port 80 however, port 80 still remains closed. I have called my ISP multiple times to see if they are not blocking it and they confermed that they are not. The LAMP server is working perfectally on a local connection but no one can see it externally. Why would port 80 would still be closed?
[03:58] <soreau> kion: You might have to mess with 'rfkill' though I'm just guessing
[03:58] <soreau> kion: rfkill unblock wif
[03:58] <soreau> wifi*
[03:59] <almoxarife> kion: go to system > admin > net tools , in net devices do you see 'wlan?'
[03:59] <kion> soreau: yes I see wlan0
[03:59] <tonyyarusso> ntoombs: Did you forward it on your router?
[03:59] <soreau> kion: I'm not the one that asked you that ;)
[03:59] <ntoombs> tonyyarusso: yes
[04:00] <kion> :-D
[04:00] <tonyyarusso> ntoombs: Is Apache listening for connections from outside your network?  Anything in the log files?
[04:00] <ntoombs> the /etc/apache2/ports.conf file says it is listening on port 80
[04:01] <bubbles|> hi
[04:01] <tonyyarusso> ntoombs: would you be willing to share the IP address?  (PM is fine)
[04:01] <bubbles|> i want to compile mysql from source, but already have an instance on my system, and don't want them to conflict each other - how can i specify an install folder for the new (source-)install?
[04:01] <ntoombs> tonyyarusso: yea /query me
[04:02] <almoxarife> kion: down from there, in ip info, what is the ip adress?
[04:02] <soreau> bubbles|: Why do you want to build it?
[04:02] <bubbles|> because there's no package for 5.6
[04:02] <nate114578> i need to get a screen shot of the terminal that verifies the cups daemon is installed and verify cups is running then start the cups daemon... i tried: sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys status.... and that didn't work.. any suggestions?
[04:02] <Jake556778> how to clear the text in the terminal ?
[04:02] <soreau> bubbles|: Did you already check for a PPA?
[04:02] <acklee> Jake556778: "clear"
[04:03] <kion> almoxarife:  <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:03] <bubbles|> i tried there's only a "5.5 experimental" build
[04:03] <soreau> ! compile | bubbles|
[04:03] <almoxarife> kion: ok, you are not connect,
[04:03] <bubbles|> is it a problem to install a second instance?
[04:03] <zykotick9> !checkinstall | bubbles|
[04:04] <soreau> bubbles|: It can be problematic depending on how different the two versions are, where they store config files, if the config stuff is different between the versions etc
[04:04] <kion> almoxarife: so how do I connect if i cant see my network
[04:04] <almoxarife> kion: I assume you have a wifi connection avail?
[04:04] <soreau> bubbles|: I do not know enough about mysql myself to say though
[04:04] <kion> almoxarife: what is an avail?
[04:05] <bubbles|> soreau well that's why i want to install the new version in a new location, so config files don't mix
[04:05] <Jake556778> how to undo in the terminal ?
[04:05] <soreau> kion: available
[04:05] <almoxarife> kion: some wifi connection available to connect to
[04:05] <wabznasm> Quick recommendation to all for apt-fast as a replacement for apt-get. Installed it yesterday and it's impressing the hell out of me
[04:05] <kion> almoxarife: jajaja shure!
[04:05] <kion> almoxarife: my own wireless modem!!
[04:05] <almoxarife> kion: you are using a desktop ubuntu?
[04:05] <soreau> bubbles|: Often times programs use config files from a common place regardless the version, such as somewhere in ~/.config/ or /etc/
[04:06] <almoxarife> kion: see the network icon on the top panel?
[04:06] <kion> almoxarife:  yes ther is the icon
[04:06] <bubbles|> oh, i see
[04:06] <acklee> Jake556778: no undo, to repeat recent commands, press Up-Down buttons
[04:06] <almoxarife> kion: click on it, see your wifi id?
[04:07] <soreau> bubbles|: config files stored in /etc/ are system wide while stuff in ~/ is specific to the current user
[04:07] <qin> Jake556778: "Undo" what command?
[04:07] <kion> almoxarife: I cant see any wifi Essid, I only see a greyed out wireless networks option that i cannot choose
[04:08] <almoxarife> kion: right click on the network icon, is wifi checked?
[04:09] <almoxarife> kion: actually it should say 'wireless'
[04:09] <kion> almoxarife: yes both activate network and activate wireless are checked
[04:09] <zykotick9> almoxarife, not sure if you where here in the beginning -- i think kion said the problem started after trying to setup PPPOE on his wireless device.
[04:10] <kion> zykotick9: That is right !
[04:10] <mikubuntu> hp deskjet f4480 wont work.  running u-10.04.  gives incorrect error msg 'out of paper', but there is paper.  google searchd installed updated hplip, that din't solve the prob.  (scanner doesn't work either). anybody have any ideas? oh, also idid a power reset, no lu ck.
[04:10] <almoxarife> kion: pppoe on wireless?
[04:11] <kion> almoxarife: actually I went with pppoeconf and got my wireless working with my modem set up as bridge
[04:11] <zykotick9> almoxarife, :) that was my reaction
[04:11] <soreau> mikubuntu: Does the printer itself show out of paper or just the UI interface?
[04:11] <soreau> redundant..
[04:11] <kion> almoxarife: after a reboot i couldnt connect anymore so i reset my modem to act as a router and my wifi was messed up
[04:11] <almoxarife> kion: is there some reason why the traditional wifi connection is not avail?
[04:12] <Jordan_U> wabznasm: As far as I can tell apt-fast will only make things faster by you by giving you a disproportionate (see unfair) amount of bandwidth from the package servers. There are enough mirrors that you should be able to find one that can saturate your connection without overloading servers with connections.
[04:12] <mikubuntu> soreau: the ui, i just lookd at the unit i don't know where it might indicate out of paper on the box itself
[04:13] <kion> almoxarife: No, it is available, its just my wlan0 that is not showing the network
[04:13] <Jordan_U> wabznasm: Try using Software-Sources' option for finding the fastest server for a better way to get more speed.
[04:13] <soreau> mikubuntu: On my hp printer, it will show a blinking 'E' on the unit when there's a problem (such as out-of-paper)
[04:13] <kion> almoxarife: I was thinking to connecti it manually with ifconfig
[04:13] <almoxarife> kion: the best advice I ever got when it came to crippled network setups was to delete them, so that a generic is recreated when you reboot, you think that's an option?
[04:13] <nate114578> i need to get a screen shot of the terminal that verifies the cups daemon is installed and verify cups is running then start the cups daemon... i tried: sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys status.... and that didn't work.. any suggestions?
[04:13] <kion> almoxarife: good how do i do that?
[04:14] <soreau> mikubuntu: In addition, my hp psc 1200 works beautifully with hplip
[04:14] <soreau> mikubuntu: never had any problems with it
[04:14] <mikubuntu> soreau: nope, nothing like that showing anywhere
[04:14] <mikubuntu> soreau: yes, thats what surprises me, usually hp plays great with ubuntu
[04:14] <soreau> mikubuntu: I guess it could be a driver issue but I'd suspect some configuration is confusing it
[04:15] <soreau> mikubuntu: I wouldn't really know what though, as I've never had an issue
[04:15] <almoxarife> kion: right click the network icon, see 'edit connections' go to wireless tab, what ever exists in wireless tab 'delete'
[04:15] <kion> almoxarife: ok done
[04:15] <soreau> mikubuntu: Perhaps try removing/re-adding the printer?
[04:15] <mikubuntu> soreau: k, thx --- anybody else know anything about printer issues?
[04:15] <kion> almoxarife: I will reboot and be back shortly and report...
[04:15] <mikubuntu> soreau: yeah, tried that
[04:15] <soreau> mikubuntu: Check sys>admin>printers and make sure there's only a single device
[04:16] <almoxarife> kion: I assume if you went to network tools you would not see a whole slew of wlan1/2//3 ?
[04:16] <soreau> ! print | mikubuntu
[04:16] <kion> almoxarife: no just wlan0
[04:16] <almoxarife> kion: cool
[04:16] <kion> almoxarife: ok going down
[04:16] <kion> almoxarife: bye for now
[04:16] <almoxarife> bye :)
[04:17] <mikubuntu> soreau: yes, i removed previous printers from configure
[04:17] <soreau> mikubuntu: Not really sure what else to tell you other than read the links ubottu offered
[04:18] <almoxarife> I feel for people with net issues, I spent nights re-doing the same mistakes till someone told me to stop fighting ubuntu 'netmanager'
[04:18] <mikubuntu> soreau: yup
[04:18] <soreau> almoxarife: Oh yea, network-manager caused me many pains
[04:19] <soreau> almoxarife: Firs thing I do: chmod -x $(which NetworkManager) :)
[04:19] <soreau> && killall NetworkManager ;)
[04:20] <FriGiN> how would i know if i were having troubles with networkmanager?
[04:20] <Corey> Oh I hate NetworkManager.
[04:20] <soreau> FriGiN: You're not
[04:20] <air_> how to remove video card icon from tray??
[04:20] <soreau> leave it alone
[04:20] <Corey> FriGiN: Roughly the same way you'd know if you were missing a foot.
[04:20] <soreau> Corey: xD
[04:20] <almoxarife> FriGiN: no get out ?
[04:21] <FriGiN> well i was having net troubles, it led me to buy a new wireless network card. so i thought that might be what the problem was.
[04:21] <nate114578> how can i verify the cups daemon is installed from the terminal?
[04:21] <almoxarife> Corey: that was harsh
[04:21] <soreau> FriGiN: Not necessarily
[04:21] <soreau> almoxarife: It was hilarious and right on point
[04:21] <air_> how to remove video card icon from tray?? ubuntu 11.04. No need install video card drivers
[04:21] <soreau> air_: What tray?

[04:22] <air_> soreau: notification area
[04:22] <soreau> air_: Hm. Can you upload a screenshot of it to picpaste.com?
[04:22] <wabznasm> nate114578: ps -e |grep cupsd

[04:25] <soreau> air_: Hmm. Does it open jockey? (the drivers manager)

[04:32] <Saruji> hello, my hard drives are not being recognized by the ubuntu installer?
[04:32] <kion> almoxarife: Infinitum926c
[04:32] <Jordan_U> usermanager: Why not just buy an Ubuntu CD?
[04:32] <nate114578> what is the terminal command to simply start a process?
[04:32] <almoxarife> kion: on the edit screen, see the 'add' option?

[04:33] <wabznasm> kurtosis: :)
[04:33] <soreau> air_: What program?
[04:33] <usermanager> i wonder can a 8.04 ubuntu be upgraded to 11
 optirun
[04:33] <TheEvilPhoenix> usermanager:  no
[04:33] <Jordan_U> usermanager: http://shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?products_id=852
[04:33] <kion> almoxarife: what is your point?
[04:33] <TheEvilPhoenix> usermanager:  you'd have to update to 10.04 first, then upgrade to 10.10, then upgrade to 11.04
[04:33] <soreau> air_: To run programs as root, prefix the command with 'sudo'
[04:34] <TheEvilPhoenix> usermanager:  but its not advised that you do that
[04:34] <TheEvilPhoenix> at all
[04:34] <Jordan_U> usermanager: Why can't you burn a CD yourself?
[04:34] <almoxarife> kion: a manual addition of a wireless access, unless you have a better idea?
[04:34] <coz_> mm most of these viewers are windows based,,, interesting    I cant find one for linux that is current :(
[04:34] <coz_> be back later
[04:34] <soreau> air_: Google seems to suggest you don't need root to run optirun though
[04:34] <kion> almoxarife: I will try and get back
[04:34] <usermanager> how to reinstall a new version of ubuntu whitout losing all my data and browswer setting ?
[04:34] <soreau> air_: What command are you using?
[04:35] <soreau> air_: And what's telling you that it needs root privledges?
[04:35] <soreau> air_: And what's telling you that it needs root privileges?
  $ optirun -gamma 1.5 "/home/air/HoN/hon.sh"
[04:35] <air_> [sudo] password for air:
[04:35] <almoxarife> kion: get back? sure. that sounds good
[04:36] <usermanager> it's not that i can't burn a cd but my internet connection is slow so can't actually download the file
[04:36] <soreau> air_: Well I'm not familiar with optirun so I don't know what you're trying to do exactly..
[04:36] <wabznasm> usermanager: LUG?
[04:37] <almoxarife> the e-book mentioned earlier, where would I find it, had to do with ubuntu system
[04:37] <usermanager> what is LUG ?
[04:37] <Jordan_U> !lug | usermanager
[04:37] <wabznasm> usermanager: local user group - someone nearby who can help you?
[04:37] <wabznasm> oops - linux user group...
[04:38] <air_> soreau, ok how i can find ptirun in my system? where is it?
[04:38] <air_> soreau, *optirun
[04:38] <almoxarife> lug is down
[04:38] <soreau> air_: Use the command 'which' to find out where a program is that is in your path. 'which program-name'
[04:39] <air_> soreau, ok thanks. how i can change program to root. chmod?
[04:39] <soreau> air_: You shouldn't need to afaik.. how did you install optirun?
 from 3thd part repo
[04:41] <ParadigmUltra> Anyone know if it would be dangerous to execut the following in the command line?  #echo 4096<PHONE_NUMBER>672 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_wmem
[04:41] <soreau> air_: Well we don't support programs provided by non-official repos here
[04:42] <air_> oh sorry
[04:42] <soreau> air_: And i do not have any further information about optirun
 this program for nvidia optimus cards

[04:52] <noip> qin - pretty sure curl doesn't support multiple connections to servers though. thanks though.
[04:53] <qin> noip: If you know names, you can loop curl command in script
[04:53] <qin> noip: Since you talk of rar split (propably), it will do

[05:15] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, no its stuck where it was, nothing happens if i select /dev/mapper/pdc_bahcbhddbf
[05:16] <SeanBannister> Just wondering, once I edit a port in /etc/services does anyone know what service I have to restart to make the port changes known
[05:16] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: Is there an option to continue without installing a bootloader?
[05:16] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, yes, how do i load ubu if it doesnt have boot loader then
[05:17] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: By installing grub manually from the LiveCD or using Super GRUB2 Disk.
[05:17] <ka1gdq> no luck..way too much time adn I am beat!
[05:17] <RediXe> acklee, I tried installing nvidia-current and I think I got to the basic gnome desktop.. downloaded the nvidia driver for linux 32bit off their site and now back to CLI only ... while I had the basic desktop I checked the other drivers that lists the propietary drivers and it said it was installed but not in use (no activate button either)
[05:17] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, last i knew, grub was difficult to mess with and unforgiving has that changed?
[05:17] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: I would highly recommend installing 11.04 rather than 10.10 though, as it has a newer version of grub.
[05:18] <perfectjitesh> gry @ is it important to setup $path
[05:18] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, i am using 11.04
[05:18] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, You are using Ubuntu 11.04 - the Natty Narwhal
[05:18] <gry> perfectjitesh: I suppose.
[05:19] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: Good (sorry, I was confusing you for saruji_ who is installing Ubuntu 10.10).
[05:19] <acklee> RediXe: sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
[05:19] <sam1234> hei guys anyone using GT540m VGA with ubuntu ?
[05:19] <acklee> add noveau & lbm-noveau to blacklist
[05:19] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, its ok. 100% forgiveness when im screwed :) so is grub still tough to deal with?
[05:19] <ActionParsnip> !anyone | sam1234
[05:19] <saruji_> Jordan_U, i'm dl'ing 11.04
[05:19] <RediXe> acklee, doing that now
[05:19] <acklee> RediXe: that is the only thing that worked for me
[05:19] <saruji_> now
[05:20] <sb1> is there anyone who can help me with this : i want to restart mysql in uck-remaster and add new database
[05:20] <saruji_> Jordan_U, just that i've had the same issue with 11.04 before, right now i've got 10.10 avail
[05:20] <sb1> how to stop system level mysql and restart it in uck-remaster
[05:20] <sb1> and add new database
[05:20] <saruji_> Jordan_U, any ideas?
[05:20] <perfectjitesh> gry@ sorry i am a bit scared last after doing it my ubuntu crashed :( like i could not load into unity or root even with startx. i am done with installing everything except $path , just tell me if it's safe . sorry i know it is a silly question
[05:20] <ActionParsnip> sb1: could add a script to run at boot
[05:21] <gry> perfectjitesh: It is safe indeed.
[05:21] <sam1234> oh sorry obottu. im strucked with my VGA driver with ubuntu distro from two weeks.
[05:21] <sb1> i am customizing a livecd where on livecd i want to add new mysql database when i try to restart mysql it does not start as it is running on system i need to know how to restart mysql in livecd and create new database over there which i can pack on livecd
[05:22] <sam1234> it give me device not found error. dont know how to fix it.
[05:22] <perfectjitesh> gry@ okay let me complete then i'll tell u what is not happening most probably it will say that it does not understnad "adb"  when i use some commands
[05:22] <ActionParsnip> sam1234: install nvidia-current and it will give the driver you need, you may need to add the boot option: nouveau.blacklist=1   to get the initial desktop
[05:22] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: It depends on what you're doing. FakeRAID in linux is always complicated, that includes when dealing with grub.
[05:22] <ActionParsnip> sb1: have you tried my suggestion?
[05:22] <gry> perfectjitesh: sure, just describe your issue once you understand it well, and explain what you did.
[05:22] <Nullifi3d> has the suspend/resume issue been fixed for core i* processors in 11.04?
[05:23] <sb1> Actionparsnip:i dont know hw to do that
[05:23] <FriGiN> Jordan_U,  soooo drop linux, go back to win, call it a day? I'm only playing with ubuntu for the giggles of it, looking for some possible game speed increases so nothing really serious and honestly my *nix info is about 15 years old.
[05:24] <ActionParsnip> sb1: if you get a boot, do you have a list of commands you can run to make the system do as you desire?
[05:24] <RediXe> acklee, thanks for the help - still not working for me though
[05:24] <kaellan> anyone here is a web designer or know how to make live cam feed onto a homepage from multible cams ? :) (i know its not a ubuntu question) :)
[05:25] <acklee> RediXe: then update-initramfs -u following with sudo apt-get install nvidia-common nvidia-glx-185
[05:25] <ActionParsnip> kaellan: then its offtopic here, this is Ubuntu support only
[05:25] <kaellan> ok :P
[05:25] <sb1> actionparnip: i have opened my livecd.iso with uck-remaster-unpack now i want to add new mysql and postgres database here can y tell me step by step to do this
[05:25] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: Don't expect game speed increases with Ubuntu (or any other distro), that said I'm curious why grub isn't installing so if you're OK with it I'd actually prefer to keep troubleshooting :)
[05:26] <ActionParsnip> Jordan_U: apparent counter strike source runs better under wine than in windows :)
[05:27] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, 100% happy to be ur guinea pig as long as win 7 doesnt go anywhere. and as far as speed increases thats due to an overdue overhaul of win7 with bad drivers and some other complicated crap i'd normally just format.  However there is some work stuff i cant get back for about 3 months if i lose windows.
[05:27] <RediXe> acklee, still no such luck
[05:27] <sam1234> ok ActionParsnip. thx lot will try and share the result.
[05:29] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: The "dangerous" part, resizing the Windows partition, is already over. Even if grub completely fails there will be no data loss and it's easy to restore an MS style mbr to get Windows booting.
[05:29] <acklee> RediXe: I'm reallu sorry, can't help you for this anymore, so it might another problem
[05:29] <kaellan> annyone tried eve online in ubuntu and/or how is it running? smooth or crap ? :P
[05:29] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, im down then .. call me luke and i'll call ya yoda.

[05:31] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, just did "sudo blkid" and absolutely nothing happened. got next input line
[05:32] <perfectjitesh> help: while doing step 5 http://androinica.com/2010/08/how-to-install-apps-to-the-sd-card-by-default-on-android-2-2-froyo/ it gives me an output of http://pastie.org/2200354
[05:32] <acklee> RediXe: glad to help
[05:32] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: That's odd. Did it finish (return to a prompt ending in '$ ' ) or does it appear hung?
[05:32] <ar0nic> guys
[05:33] <ar0nic> im desperate to figure out how to assign my vga input as the main monitor
[05:33] <ar0nic> and the hdmi as secondary
[05:33] <FriGiN> Jordan_U,  nope it finished sittin @ "ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ "
[05:33] <ar0nic> im back in windows cause i was being angered
[05:33] <ar0nic> it will assign the hdmi output as primary, and it will clone them, and then proceed to fuck up
[05:33] <Jordan_U> !language | ar0nic
[05:34] <ar0nic> but it will NOT, by every setting ive tried, assign my VGA output as primary
[05:34] <ar0nic> sorry Jordan_U.
[05:34] <perfectjitesh> someone please help: while doing step 5 http://androinica.com/2010/08/how-to-install-apps-to-the-sd-card-by-default-on-android-2-2-froyo/ it gives me an output of http://pastie.org/2200354
[05:34] <ar0nic> perfectjitesh..wrong channel
[05:34] <perfectjitesh> ar0nic :which channel then
[05:35] <Jordan_U> saruji_: No idea. I'm surprised that those aren't listed. The "nomdraid" kernel parameter might help if you have some stale raid metadata on them.
[05:35] <wabznasm> perfectjitesh: that is left as an exercise for the reader
[05:35] <perfectjitesh> ar0nic: it shows adb command not found
[05:36] <perfectjitesh> wabznasm@ please guide me a bit
[05:36] <wabznasm> perfectjitesh: do a /list and look for an android channel?
[05:38] <perfectjitesh> :( okie
[05:38] <ar0nic> perfectjitesh
[05:38] <ar0nic> cyanogenmod
[05:38] <ar0nic> that chan can help

[05:39] <kvcrawford_> what specs would you need to say build a media server?
[05:39] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: Can you pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l"?

[05:43] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, k
[05:43] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: After all that you should have a new prompt ending in '# '.
[05:43] <Jordan_U> !register | perfectjitesh
[05:43] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, "/#" yes.
[05:44] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc
[05:44] <RediXe> acklee, odd... after removing the blacklist entries, running update-initramfs -u, and reinstalling nvidia-current it works (after reboot) .. even got the new sidebar thing
[05:44] <perfectjitesh> k
[05:44] <acklee> RediXe: I used to, now I run 11:04 not using Wubi..
[05:44] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, one sec before continuing... i still have the "continue without loader" up. should i go ahead and OK that?
[05:45] <tuanht> I'm customizing a distro base on Ubuntu. And I want run a bash script when ubiquity installer complete (to copy some file that pre-generate before ubiquity run) by using  'd-i preseed/late_command ...' in ubuntu.seed file but it's not work. Does anyone help me solve this problem?
[05:45] <acklee> RediXe: wow!
[05:45] <kaellan> Hdmi question. if i select that option "separate x server" if i do full scren while playing wow it gets the resolution for the tv and not for the laptop ?
[05:46] <saruji_> Having problems with not being able to see 2 of my partitions, this post explains the problem very well, any help would be greatly appretiated.. http://tinyurl.com/5rdpeyk
[05:46] <RediXe> acklee, I'm wondering if it had something to do with the update-initramus as that is the one thing I was not doing when I was trying to solve this solo
[05:47] <RediXe> acklee, just gave it another reboot just to make sure and it's still working fine :D
[05:47] <acklee> RediXe: so "man update-initramfs" may help you
[05:47] <consolers> wrong channel,but the the answer to my usbstick question  is that that bios expects 64 heads and 32 sectors
[05:48] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: Yes. But I thought you had already done that, so first run "exit" then when you're back to a normal prompt run "for mountpoint in /mnt/{dev,sys,proc,}; do sudo umount $mountpoint; done"
[05:48] <almoxarife> saruji_: that is one handsome post, I must say, I don't know the answer, but, could it have something to do with entries? as in only the first 2-3 partions show up by default? long shot
[05:48] <tux_> hey all
[05:48] <RediXe> acklee, Yeah I'll give a read - thanks again for the help :)
[05:48] <kaellan> how do i open th nvidia x gui if i dont cant click on the ubuntu logo in upper left corner ? :P
[05:48] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: I don't want anything we did to affect what the installer might still need to do.
[05:49] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, well im pretty sure its hosed already, i cant click ok on any of the options including the "cancel installation"
[05:49] <tux_> what are you having problems with
[05:51] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: Then just leave it however it is and we'll install grub and see what happens. Did you run "exit" or the for loop I gave yet? If not, don't. If so tell me which you have run.
[05:51] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, i cant even get installer to go away...
[05:51] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: I understand that.
[05:51] <tux_> try to restart
[05:52] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, so leave installer mucked up, then just go ahead and dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc again?
[05:53] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: Have you run "exit" yet? (yes or no)
[05:53] <FriGiN> no im totally horked. give me like 10 mins. let me restart pc, resetup my wireless and get back in chat. scratch it all over
[05:54] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: Also, when I ask questions please answer them the first time I ask them. I don't like that I have had to repeat questions to you multiple times already.
[05:54] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, i have been to my knowledge answering you to the best of my ability the first time. if i miss something please feel free to tell me to scroll up.
[05:55] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: I don't think you're totally borked at all. Please just answer the question if you have run "exit" or not yet before doing anything else.
[05:55] <kaellan> how do i open th nvidia x if i cant click on the ubuntu logo in upper left corner ?
[05:55] <FriGiN> as i said before no i didnt run exit
[05:55] <pratz> hey guys i have installed 10.04 but can not boot in the system, hard disk - WD (Wester Digital ) , any ideas ??
[05:56] <ktime> does anyone know anything about the error "grub-mkconfig couldn't be executed successfully. You must run this as root!" with grub-customizer?
[05:56] <tux_> what about the grub
[05:56] <pratz> guys any help ??
[05:56] <saruji_> almoxarife, how would i go about changing that?
[05:56] <pratz> processor - core 2 deo
[05:56] <tux_> where did you put the grub
[05:56] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: Then just run "dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc".
[05:56] <saruji_> almoxarife, ps thank you
[05:57] <tux_> does it give you an option
[05:57] <ktime> i'm getting the error grub-mkconfig couldn't be executed successfully. You must run this as root! I ran gksu grub-mkconfig and it stops after BEGIN /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ###
[05:57] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, http://paste.ubuntu.com/642408/
[05:57] <balls_429> o/
[05:57] <tux_> pratz
[05:57] <almoxarife> saruji_: I don't think that is the prob, what is special about 2 of those hard drives?
[05:58] <ktime> do you think it would have anything to do with windows 7 being my default os?
[05:58] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: Now I agree that things are borked :).
[05:58] <pratz> tux_: blank screen which say hd0 - out of disk
[05:58] <tuanht> does anyone known how to run a custom-script after ubiquity installer complete? (d-i preseed/late_command not work for me)
[05:58] <acklee> ktime: sudo grub-mkconfig ?
[05:58] <balls_429> s0f7_mach1ne: hello sir
[05:58] <FriGiN> Jordan_U,  well im not too out of it to recognize borked when i see it. give me like 10. i'll be back
[05:58] <tux_>  ps me
[05:58] <saruji_> almoxarife, Windows 7 is installed on that 1 hard drive but it is split into 2 partitions
[05:58] <tux_> pratz
[05:58] <almoxarife> saruji_: the ones that don't show, special how?
[05:59] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: I need to go to sleep soon so reboot and confirm that you can still boot Windows.
[05:59] <FriGiN> Jordan_U, ok
[05:59] <pratz> tux_: any more information you need buddy ??
[05:59] <almoxarife> saruji_: how many physical drives are there?
[05:59] <ktime> BEGIN /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ### is what it stops on when I run gksu grub-mkconfig
[05:59] <saruji_> almoxarife,  4
[05:59] <tux_> no your hard drive might be going bad
[05:59] <sam1234> ActionParsnip> i did how u said. but it give me error.  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[05:59] <Jordan_U> FriGiN: I'll help you recover if you can't, and I can probably help you get Ubuntu installed another day if you'd still like to try.
[05:59] <pratz> tux_: mother board is lenovo
[06:00] <pratz> tux_: how do i check if the hard disk is bad ??
[06:00] <kaellan> Gfx driver question - Nvidia driver sais: "This driver is activated but not currently in use". How to activate ?
[06:00] <tux_> you cant
[06:00] <almoxarife> saruji_: googled it? usb install hidden partions?
[06:00] <pratz> tux_: so whats the other option , and how can i recover the data ??
[06:00] <tux_> its eather the hard drive or the mother board or boath
[06:00] <Jordan_U> pratz: You have a buggy BIOS which can't properly handle large drives. You can work around the bug by creating a small /boot/ partition near the beginning of the drive.
[06:01] <tux_> install a linux os on a usb drive and run it on your computer and mount the hard drives
[06:01] <saruji_> almoxarife, doing so now, previously I came across a similar post labeled solved but not solution was given
[06:02] <tux_> have you tryed reinstalling  linux did it install okat
[06:02] <saliak> I've noticed random emails (well, really only one, from root to smsp) trying to get sent on my system.  How would I figure out what program is queueing those? or better yet, make it remove them from the queue after so many fails (they are sitting there making my logs grow now)
[06:02] <tux_> okay
[06:02] <tux_> it might be the mother board if it installs good
[06:03] <sam1234> hei why its a pain to install nvidia drivers on ubuntu ?
[06:03] <djcaston> would someone be able to tell me how to set a static ip for a computer connected to an ubuntu box through internet sharing?
[06:03] <almoxarife> saruji_: want to try something for shits and giggles, unplug one of the drives now showing, see if the missing drive/s show up?
[06:04] <pratz> tux_: i haved installed it successfully
[06:04] <pratz> tux_: with no erros
[06:04] <acklee> djcaston: sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
