[05:23] <ben0> other ubuntu?
[05:23] <ben0> or osx/windows
[05:23] <slgma> connecting to myself
[05:23] <slgma> just a desktop ben10
[05:24] <slgma> it worked fine up until a few months ago
[05:24] <slgma> i think it mightve been the 10.04 to 10.10 upgarde
[05:24] <ben0> i mean ubuntu to ubuntu?
[05:24] <slgma> yes
[05:24] <slgma> well
[05:24] <slgma> no
[05:24] <FloodBot4> slgma: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:24] <slgma> ipod touch to ubuntu
[05:24] <ben0> oh i see
[05:24] <slgma> ive used it for awhile, and it stopped working one day
[05:24] <ben0> same network or via dyndns?
[05:24] <slgma> both
[05:25] <ben0> cool
[05:25] <slgma> trying to get it working locally for now
[05:25] <slgma> dyndns is easy to setup i just cant figure out why its not accepting any connections locally
[05:26] <sacarlson> slgma: did you try the ip address of the server instead of the auto find?
[05:26] <slgma> yes
[05:26] <slgma> i tried the 192. ip
[05:26] <sanjay_> hello gud morning to all, i installed ubuntu 10.10 in my pc with  windows 7.. shall i install ubuntu studio in to my pc... will it effect  anyway to ubuntu 10.10?
[05:26] <slgma> and <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:26] <randomusr_> How can I generate a .ppk for putty SSH login?
[05:27] <sacarlson> slgma: oh I didn't know you could connect to yourself with vnc,  can you ping the remote?
[05:27] <slgma> yea the network is fine
[05:27] <elik> Whenever I close my laptop lid, my screen goes blank and never comes back. I end up having to restart every single time, which I highly annoyig. The computer is responsive ( I can ssh to it), but from the screen's POV, it's as good as dead
[05:28] <redneck05> i have deleted the wifi indicator applet how do i get it back
[05:28] <KM0201> sanjay_: ubuntu studio isn't supported here..b ut all ubuntu studio is, is ubuntu w/ some GUI tweaks and different software...
[05:28] <ben0> i think you just gotta restart your vinagre
[05:28] <thiefy> elik, go in the screen saver and power settings and then you can stop it doing that.
[05:28] <rawrite>  randomusr_, http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest/x86/puttygen.exe
[05:28] <ben0> did you avahi-daemon restart? slgma?
[05:28] <slgma> i dont believe so, how do i do that?
[05:28] <redneck05> i am a newbiee
[05:28] <KM0201> redneck05: right click panel, add to panel, add indicator applet
[05:29] <KM0201> redneck05: after you add it, move it back into place
[05:29] <RealOpty> wow, thought id never see the day my wife converts to ubuntu lol. *hurray*
[05:29] <cp2_4eva> any idea why it takes me 3-4 attempts to get Ubuntu to load up?
[05:29] <sanjay_> KM0201 shall i use ubuntu studion  with ubuntu 10.10  in my pc
[05:29] <___________xD> asd
[05:29] <elik> thiefy: actually not. There is no option to do nothing when the lid is closed. Other options are suspend, hibernate and shut-down. Blank screen is as soft as it gets
[05:29] <KM0201> sanjay_: ubuntu studio is a completely different version of ubuntu... it is not supported here.
[05:29] <ben0> wait, what are you using? slgma, vino?
[05:30] <sanjay_> ok
[05:30] <slgma> yes
[05:30] <slgma> the default vnc server
[05:30] <redneck05> i mean the little wifi icon that i click to list available networks
[05:30] <randomusr_> rawrite, Does that create a key for both Windows and Linux Host? Can I do that from the BASH Shell?
[05:30] <d3cented> KM0201: and that was exactly the point where network-manager refused to work properly again, so i had to switch to wicd...
[05:30] <nunya> how do I find out where a certain script I keep running is actually located on my computer?
[05:30] <ugmg> hi, bad new from the morning, my ISP blocked the torrent
[05:30] <slgma> i tried connecting to myself via the default remote desktop viewer, and from my ipod touch app Jaadu VNC
[05:30] <slgma> both of which worked before
[05:30] <KM0201> redneck05: right... add indicator applet back to your panel.. you probably just removed the indicator panel
[05:30] <KM0201> d3cented: wicd is fine, but if he's online, then network manager is running
[05:31] <sacarlson> slgma: what is seen with ps -A | grep vino
[05:31] <d3cented> sure
[05:31] <thiefy> elik, in the screen saver settings, click on 'power management' in there there is an option to set when to put the computer to sleep or never do it.
[05:31] <elik> thiefy: I did set it so it never goes to sleep though
[05:31] <ugmg> any one know ho to pass the torrent blockedddddddddddddddddddddd
[05:31] <redneck05> i just did that and it turned into a sound volume indicator
[05:31] <ben0> slgma, go to terminal,  sudo service /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon restart
[05:31] <thiefy> elik, so you think it is not listening to that setting?
[05:31] <slgma>  5961 ?        00:00:03 vino-preference
[05:31] <slgma>  - sacarlson
[05:31] <thiefy> elik, or do you think it is trying to hibernate or something.
[05:31] <elik> thiefy: the problem is that there is not way to tell it not to blank the screen on lid close
[05:32] <elik> thiefy: it's not trying to hibernate as ssh is responsive
[05:32] <rawrite>  randomusr_, you create private/public keys from bash shell hten import it in using puttygen.exe
[05:32] <redneck05> ri feel kinda stupid cuz i deleted the whole bottom bar and now i'm trying to build another one
[05:32] <slgma> ben0
[05:32] <slgma> unrecognised service
[05:33] <sacarlson> slgma: you should also see vino-server,  try togle  allow other users off then on again see if vino-server apears
[05:33] <ben0> strange...
[05:33] <randomusr_> rawrite, what is the command/man page? Is there a decent tutorial available?
[05:33] <ben0> 1 sec
[05:33] <elik> thiefy: disabling the screen blanking is also a work around, not exactly a solution :(
[05:33] <slgma> didnt help sacarlson
[05:34] <hole_> KM0201 :  i just did that and it turned into a sound volume indicator
[05:34] <nunya> how do I find out where a certain script I keep running is actually located on my computer?

[05:39] <cp2_4eva> has anyone ever had a new nvidia card, but Ubuntu didn't give you the option to install the proprietary drivers?  I just installed 10.4 and it didn't have any for my new card and I cant get a resolution over 1280 x 1024.

[05:39] <gidimanunaki> http://xkcd.com/ - I hate that song so much.
[05:39] <thiefy> cp2_4eva, did you run the 'restricted drivers' program, and it didn't find anything for you?
[05:39] <gidimanunaki> Sorry, wrong channel. :/
[05:39] <cp2_4eva> thiefy, where is this restricted drivers program? sorry Im a newb
[05:39] <sacarlson> slgma: try run vino-preferences in a terminal?
[05:40] <slgma> loaded sacarlson
[05:40] <redneck05> im not hole \
[05:41] <sacarlson> slgma: loaded does that mean it works?
[05:41] <thiefy> cp2_4eva, actually i think it's called 'additional drivers'
[05:41] <slgma> yea it loads from the menu or terminal fine
[05:41] <thiefy> cp2_4eva, it's in system - then in administration.
[05:41] <slgma> sacarlson yea it loads from the menu or terminal fine
[05:41] <sacarlson> slgma: togle it off and on see what error come out on the terminal it's running in
[05:41] <thiefy> cp2_4eva, before you launch that program, do sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade   that will help.
[05:41] <cp2_4eva> thiefy, i see hardware drivers, but when i click then there are none there
[05:41] <Chipzzz> cp2_4eva: System->Administration->Hardware Drivers
[05:42] <cp2_4eva> i just did an update to the computer and rebooted.
[05:42] <slgma> sacarlson, i toggled every option and it doesnt give any errors
[05:42] <thiefy> cp2_4eva,  i'm suprised it isn't telling you to install hardware drivers then.
[05:42] <cp2_4eva> thiefy, me too!!! lol
[05:42] <slgma> sacarlson, the notification area option in vino-preferences to always display an icon doesnt work
[05:42] <sacarlson> slgma: ok and ps -A| grep vino-server  still nothing?
[05:42] <thiefy> cp2_4eva, are you sure you are using the nvidia card and not the on board video?
[05:43] <SeaPhor> thiefy: cp2_4eva this is nice too-->> sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade sources.list
[05:43] <slgma> yea sacarlson

[05:43] <cp2_4eva> thiefy, im using the dvi port
[05:43] <slgma> is that a problem?
[05:43] <slgma> or is it supposed to be vino-preferences
[05:43] <elik> thiefy: giving it a try, but do you have any idea why it is hapenning? or at least how I could find why?
[05:44] <sacarlson> slgma: no that's not a problem I can't seem to find the program the vino-preference runs eather,  but it works for me
[05:44] <AbhiJit> sacarlson, can i use terminal server client 0.15 in appicatins->internet-tcs to connecto to another ubuntu from my this ubuntu?
[05:44] <slgma> :(
[05:44] <Chipzzz> cp2_4eva you have to enable the restricted drivers repository in software sources

 KM0201, nvidia 460gtx is successfully working thanks to you......if I had a cookie I'd give it to ya
[05:46] <thiefy> so is it working?
[05:46] <KM0201> thiefy: well i'd hope so.
[05:46] <KM0201> lol
[05:47] <thiefy> heh
[05:47] <cp2_4eva> thiefy it was working on 10.10. I installed on 10.4....not working.
[05:47] <cp2_4eva> on 10.10 I could only use HDMI.
[05:47] <thiefy> he is still asking about it. seems after 10 minutes of you talking to him, he did as you said and all should be well.
[05:47] <cp2_4eva> 10.4 I have DVI working, but limited
[05:47] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: i thought you said earlier it was working?
[05:47] <SeaPhor> does sudo nvidia-settings give error?
[05:48] <cp2_4eva> KM0201, on 10.10 is was.
[05:48] <sacarlson> slgma: I found the server at /usr/lib/vino/vino-server  try run that
[05:48] <AbhiJit> can i use terminal server client 0.15 in appicatins->internet-tcs to connecto to another ubuntu from my this ubuntu?
[05:48] <armour> hi all. Ever had a RAID-1 failing. I got drive 0 with lots errors, I removed it. Put the drive 1 on the position 0. Installed a brand new  disk on position 1. Rebooted, add the new one as spare and recovered. My question is: Once the recovery done, should I swap them back? Or just leave them.
[05:48] <thiefy> KM0201, he says it works in maverick, but not in lucid.
[05:48] <cp2_4eva> KM0201, on 10.4 it is kinda working.....low resolution
[05:48] <randomusr_> how do I configure my linux host to use a private Key for putty logins?
[05:48] <KM0201> thiefy: oh ok.. i wasn't aware he changed back to 10.04
[05:48] <randomusr_> I have the private key already
[05:48] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: well, have you set your resolution in nvidia-settings?
[05:48] <armour> This is RAID-1 over software
[05:48] <slgma> rofl sacarlson
[05:48] <slgma> that worked
[05:48] <thiefy> KM0201, you have to help him again, i must go afk.   :)
[05:48] <KM0201> lol
[05:48] <cp2_4eva> km0201, thats he problem....I don't have the nvidia setting option
[05:49] <thiefy> KM0201, good luck mate.
[05:49] <SeaPhor> does sudo nvidia-settings give error? cp2_4eva
[05:49] <cp2_4eva> no proprietary drivers were offered.
[05:49] <sacarlson> slgma: I'm not sure why the preference did run it then
[05:49] <slgma> yea
[05:49] <slgma> me either
[05:49] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: then most likely, the nvidia driver not installed... is it enabled/installed in system/admin/hardware drivers?
[05:49] <KM0201> ..
[05:49] <cp2_4eva> says not a command
[05:49] <KM0201> hmm
[05:49] <thiefy> cp2_4eva, what happens when you type gksu nvidia-settings
[05:49] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: probably won't work, but try sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings
[05:50] <elik> thiefy: seems like it didn't work. I was able to set it to do nothing, but the screen still goes blank and doesn't come back
[05:50] <thiefy> give KM0201 $300 and he'll come to your house and fix er up real good.
[05:50] <slgma> thanks alot for your help sacarlson
[05:50] <sacarlson> slgma: it seems I see the vino-server running even if it's disabled so it must start at boot at some point, maybe it's not starting there for you
[05:50] <cp2_4eva> thiefy, when i did that it gave me back nothing
[05:50] <SeaPhor> then not installed cp2_4eva do as before when KM0201 had you go to System>admin.....and install the drivers
[05:50] <cp2_4eva> paused for a sec.
[05:50] <KM0201> thiefy: gksu/sudo shouldn't be required to run nvidia-settings ... it can be ran as user, you jsut can't modify xorg with it
[05:50] <thiefy> elik, that could be your laptop taht is doing that and not the operating system.... just a thought. it might be a load of huey. but hard to say.
[05:51] <elik> thiefy: huey?
[05:51] <cp2_4eva> SeaPhor, in hardwarei it isn't an option. its blanks
[05:51] <thiefy> cp2_4eva, you'll have to do what KM0201 was saying,
[05:51] <thiefy> elik, maybe it's spelt hooey  actually
[05:51] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: install nvidia-settings
[05:51] <AbhiJit> !rdesktop
[05:51] <thiefy> elik, a nice word for 'crap'
[05:51] <AbhiJit> !rdp
[05:51] <elik> thiefy: right :)
[05:51] <KM0201> !vnc > AbhiJit
[05:52] <elik> thiefy: it's weird as it really happens only when I close the lid
[05:52] <cp2_4eva> KM0201, doing the nvidia-setting install
[05:52] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: its probably not gonna work, but we'll see
[05:52] <elik> thiefy: the keywords for googling that are also... tricky
[05:52] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: so what are you doing, dual booting 10.04 and 10.10, on the same machine?
[05:53] <cp2_4eva> KM0201, yup
[05:53] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: hmm...
[05:53] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: i won't pretend that makes any sense whatsoever
[05:53] <elik> thiefy: also, my screen flashes randomly...
[05:53] <AbhiJit> KM0201, do you know how to use terminal server client which is in lucid?
[05:53] <thiefy> elik, maybe check forums from your laptop maker's website. see what they say. or first i would check your BIOS. see if you can trun that off.
[05:53] <KM0201> AbhiJit: a little bit.
[05:53] <KM0201> why?
[05:53] <thiefy> elik, i had a girlfiend that did that too.
[05:54] <AbhiJit> KM0201, can you please help me connect it?
[05:54] <cp2_4eva> KM0201, Im a newb. i when with 10.10 first and was a BIT buggy, so I wanted to try 10.4
[05:54] <elik> thiefy: I should meet her
[05:54] <randomusr_> how do I configure my linux host to use a private Key for putty logins?
[05:54] <elik> :)
[05:54] <randomusr_> how do I configure my linux host to use a private Key for putty logins?
[05:54] <randomusr_> I have the private key already
[05:54] <FloodBot4> randomusr_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:54] <cp2_4eva> went with a 64bit 10.4
[05:54] <thiefy> haha
[05:54] <randomusr_> oops
[05:54] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: 10.4 does not exist..are you talking 10.04, or 11.04?
[05:54] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: 10.04, is older than 10.10..
[05:54] <thiefy> he's talking about lucid.
[05:55] <cp2_4eva> I went with Lucid 2nd, maverick first
[05:55]  * KM0201 starts counting to 10 million
[05:55] <elik> thiefy: I'll look into the bios thing uppon next reboot, but I had debian on that machine a month ago and didn't see this issue
[05:55] <cp2_4eva> whoa whoa. LTS.....heard it was more stable
[05:55] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: so 10.10 was buggy, so you thouht it made sense to try an even older OS?
[05:55] <randomusr_> yy
[05:55] <thiefy> cp2_4eva,  go with maverick second and maverick first.  = problem solved!   yaaaaaay
[05:55] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: no, its not more stable... whoever told you that needs hit w/ a brick... it jus has a longer support cycle.
[05:56] <KM0201> it will receive updates for 3yrs, instead of 18mo(like ubuntu 10.10)
[05:56] <cp2_4eva> KM0201, siiiiiiigh.......the n00b is being taken in may directions
[05:56] <cp2_4eva> *many
[05:56] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: clearly...
[05:57] <cp2_4eva> doing a reboot and seeing how 10.10 is....I really can't get any ubuntu to boot on first try and DVI wasn't working in 10.10
[05:57] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: 10.04, is no more stable/unstable, than 10.10.... really where 10.04 shines, is in an enterprise type environment, where you don't want to upgrade 200 machines every 6mo, ecause it is supported w/ updates for 3yrs
[05:57] <cp2_4eva> did the change to the xorg file and didnt work
[05:57] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: LTS, has nothing to do w/ stability
[05:57] <fuzzybunny69y> hey everyone! I am trying to setup vsftpd so that one user has read/write access to a certain directories in the /var/www/ directory. Does anyone know how I would go about setting this up? I have checked in the vsftp man page and cannot figure it out. Any help would be great!!
[05:57] <thiefy> elik, oooh. so it is the OS doing it. yeah, that's a tough one mate. when i googled for this "ubuntu disable screen blank"  i see lots of good results. i hope one actually works for you.
[05:57] <SeaPhor> now KM0201 ,,, thats not always the case,,, 8.10 should never have been released ,,, was a pos...
[05:57] <KM0201> SeaPhor: well, true...
[05:57] <KM0201> but 10.10 is quite stable
[05:58] <thiefy> cp2_4eva, you could always try linuxmint  peopple say it runs great.
[05:58] <KM0201> 8.10 wasn't so bad... my dad recommended it to several of his competitors
[05:58] <KM0201> lol
[05:58] <elik> thiefy: I was trying to google for the specific issue (going blank and not coming back, but I'll try to widen the search a bit (and not that old girlfriend of yours ;) )
[05:58] <cp2_4eva> KM0201, dude at work told me lucid ws the way to go
[05:58] <elik> thiefy: thanks
[05:58] <thiefy> hahah
[05:58] <thiefy> hope i helped a lil big elik
[05:58] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: dudes are work are usually idiots...
[05:58] <cp2_4eva> KM0201, lol.
[05:58] <thiefy> maybe tehre is an nvidia chan or soemthing you could ask more in.
[05:58] <YankDownUnder> 8.10 was truly kick...however, 10.10 is bypassing them all...
[05:58] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: if lucid doesn't support all your hardware, but maverick does, then what do you gain by sticking w/ lucid?
[05:59] <elik> thiefy: even if you didn't, I appreciate you taking the time :)
[05:59] <cp2_4eva> KM0201, this is true.......
[05:59] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: i know
[05:59] <thiefy> elik, ok, if you can't get it to work by tomorrow, i will send her over to help you feel better.
[05:59] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: thats why your whole issue is really confusing me
[05:59] <elik> thiefy: if you hadn't
[05:59] <cp2_4eva> what is the nvidia channel?
[05:59] <elik> thiefy: sounds like a deal
[05:59] <cp2_4eva> and do you think they would be Ubuntu saavy?
[06:00] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: i think they'll laugh at you.. cuz you're not even ubuntu saavy
[06:00] <cp2_4eva> KM0201, thats ok though. as long as I get help. i don't care what they call me
[06:00]  * KM0201 sits on his hands
[06:01] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: that wsa ripe for a comeback.. but anyway.. it's quite possible that device just isn't supported in the 10.04 kernel, and is in 10.10.. at which point, you'll have to download the nvidia driver from nvidia.com
[06:02] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: whats the device caled again?
[06:02] <cp2_4eva> km0201, well looks like i'll be loaidng a different OS on there then. the device is a gtx 460
[06:02] <thiefy> KM0201, i have the answer to cp2_4eva     trick him into typing sudo apt-get dist-upgrade     muhahaha
[06:02] <KM0201> lol
[06:02] <cp2_4eva> KM0201, you wouldnt dare!!!!!
[06:02] <thiefy> he'll be on maverick and not even know it.
[06:02] <thiefy> hahah
[06:02] <thiefy> genious!
[06:03] <joshrl> I'm new to Linux, and am running in a VirtualBox, but it looks good so far. :)
[06:03] <joshrl> Although I want it to be fullscreen.
[06:03] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: i guess i'm still perplexed by your "issue"
[06:03] <joshrl> And I need to do something with Guest things. :P
[06:03] <KM0201> joshrl: you need to install guest additions
[06:03] <joshrl> Can anyone give me a link to that?
[06:03] <joshrl> Well, how to install it I mean. :P
[06:03] <KM0201> joshrl: what version of vbox are you using?
[06:04] <joshrl> 4.
[06:04] <cp2_4eva> KM0201, im getting this: mountall: disconnected from Plymouth
[06:04] <thiefy> joshrl,  you have to install the virtual box 'guest additions'  then you can do that.  after that works, then look up using 'seamless mode' you'll like that even better.
[06:04] <KM0201> cp2_4eva: when are you getting that?
[06:04] <joshrl> Okay. :D
[06:04]  * KM0201 likes seamless mode
[06:04] <cp2_4eva> KM0201, i'll go into failsafe and then fix it. this is before the load.
[06:04] <thiefy> it's sweet.
[06:04] <thiefy> joshrl, there is no link to it. it comes with virtualbox.
[06:05] <joshrl> Yeah, I was talking about a link to a page that'll lead me to how to install it though. >.<
[06:05] <thiefy> joshrl, up at the top of the vbox screen, in the menus there you will see where you can install it onto your client OS.
[06:05] <joshrl> As far as I have got is pressing the Install Guest Addtions button. :P
[06:05] <thiefy> joshrl, http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/virtualbox-guest-addons.html
[06:05] <joshrl> So it's now mounted.
[06:05] <thiefy> then, browse the cd you just 'mounted'
[06:05] <thiefy> and run the installer.
[06:05] <KM0201> joshrl: so you have the "cd" mounted on your ubuntu desktop for guest additions?
[06:06] <joshrl> Yup.
[06:06] <thiefy> that website does spell it out exactly though if you wanna read it...
[06:06] <KM0201> joshrl: do this... open the cd(so you can browse it)
[06:06] <KM0201> thiefy: does it?
[06:06] <sooan> hi! is there a way when having the ubuntu.iso on a running system in some directory to install this ubuntu over the same partition, maybe with tricks like copying the iso to a ramdis or something?
[06:06] <thiefy> yep. it's pretty straight forward.  http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/virtualbox-guest-addons.html
[06:07] <joshrl> Okay. :)
[06:07] <xcthulhu> I need to install the STA Broadcom driver on a netbook which does not have a wired ethernet connection
[06:07] <xcthulhu> Is there any good way to download all of the .deb files with there dependencies to do this?
[06:07] <xcthulhu> *their
[06:07] <KM0201> thiefy: only issue w/ those instructions.. doesn't tell him how to get to the proper path of the file
[06:08] <Kre10s> hello. Is there a way to add a new group of network devices to network manager?
[06:09] <Kre10s> I currently have "Wired Networks" and "Wireless Networks" can I add another?
[06:09] <KM0201> xcthulhu: do you have the ubuntu install cd?
[06:09] <YankDownUnder> Kre10s, Um...what - ya mean like another tab?
[06:10] <sacarlson> xcthulhu: it has no ethernet conector or you just don't have an ethernet cable?  don't see many wifi device that didn't have one
[06:10] <Kre10s> yup ^_^
[06:12] <YankDownUnder> Kre10s, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager
[06:12] <joshrl> I guess I'll update before I do all this Guest Additions and stuff.
[06:12] <sacarlson> Kre10s: I'm not a fan of network-manager but you can add more network devices in other ways
[06:13] <The_Explorer> Hey, ive been having issues with sound since... 9.04 is there a script to go back to the good ol happy alsa mixer i used to have?
[06:14] <thiefy> joshrl, it's easier than you think.
[06:14] <shawn> hey does this sound like a kernal? hp7xx-2.6.25-stable
[06:14] <YankDownUnder> The_Explorer, You can use Synaptic or apt-get to install the old fashioned alsa mixer
[06:14] <thiefy> joshrl, is the machine in the vm a windows installation or a linux one?
[06:14] <thiefy> shawn, yes. a modified one.
[06:15] <Kre10s> sacarlson: ok. what do you use?
[06:15] <shawn> ah
[06:15] <shawn> i believe taht is what i need
[06:15] <shawn> i wonder if there are modules for it
[06:15] <thiefy> shawn, i would guess that is for an hp 7 series computer.
[06:15] <shawn> HP Jornada 720
[06:15] <shawn> :)
[06:15] <sacarlson> Kre10s: I just setup static in /etc/network/interfaces
[06:15] <thiefy> shawn, that does look like it's meant for yours then.
[06:15] <joshrl> I'm running Ubuntu in VirtualBox.
[06:15] <shawn> k
[06:16] <joshrl> With Windows 7 as the host OS.
[06:16] <shawn> iw as trying 2.6.28 from a friend
[06:16] <shawn> reformating
[06:16] <Jordan_U> !broadcom | xcthulhu
[06:16] <The_Explorer> YankDownUnder, i know I can, but i want to kill the headphone jack autodetect too. cause it cuts out randomly
[06:16] <shawn> i wish someonew ould talk in #jlime
[06:17] <YankDownUnder> The_Explorer, Cuts out randomly? Hmmm....strange....
[06:17] <shawn> ah, how would i extract a .tar.gz?
[06:17] <elik> shawn: command line
[06:17] <shawn> untar jvcf or something?
[06:17] <elik> shawn: tax xzf
[06:17] <shawn> i know lol
[06:17] <shawn> tax?
[06:17] <shawn> k
[06:17] <hanasaki> does ubuntu support hdmi input ? from what hardware?
[06:17] <sacarlson> Kre10s: I manualy edit the interfaces file with gedit,  all my systems that have more than one network device are servers that are custom set
[06:17] <YankDownUnder> tar xvzf file.tar.gz
[06:17] <thiefy> joshrl, ok, in that vm, open a terminal. in tehre type cd /media/   then type ls   and tell me what you see in there.  (i think it's in there)
[06:17] <The_Explorer> YankDownUnder, strange or not, there must be some way to kill the autodetection, i really dont mind adjusting the mixer by hand.
[06:18] <hanasaki> what is the kernel option nohz=off for?
[06:18] <joshrl> I'm still updating, so I'll get there soon!
[06:18] <elik> shawn: yeah, tar
[06:18] <shawn> oh nt tax?
[06:18] <elik> sorry
[06:18] <shawn> *not?
[06:18] <paroh> is there is any program life perrblock for ubuntu?
[06:18] <elik> shawn: nope
[06:18] <thiefy> joshrl, i have ubuntu as the host os and xp as the guest os. so i can't follow along exactly.  :)
[06:18] <elik> shawn: just like YankDownUnder said :)
[06:18] <shawn> ?
[06:18] <joshrl> I see. :P
[06:19] <shawn> oh ty
[06:19] <YankDownUnder> shawn, tar xvzf filename.tar.gz
[06:19] <joshrl> Well having Ubuntu as a host means you'll understand it better!
[06:19] <thiefy> haha. hopefully.
[06:19] <shawn> how do i format from CLI?
[06:19] <shawn> like /dev/sdc
[06:19] <thiefy> josh, what is it you are updating?
[06:19] <joshrl> Okies, now it wants a restart. :P
[06:19] <YankDownUnder> shawn, What are you trying to format?
[06:19] <joshrl> And I'm updating Ubuntu.
[06:19] <joshrl> It had a lot to update.
[06:19] <thiefy> aah
[06:19] <shawn> a compact flash partition
[06:20] <YankDownUnder> shawn, Right - well, you can do "mkfs.vfat /dev/whatever" => Or you can do it through GParted
[06:20] <shawn> ext2
[06:20] <shawn> sdc2
[06:21] <shawn> how would i type it?
[06:21] <shawn> GParted steals more than its supposed to
[06:21] <YankDownUnder> shawn, mkfs.ext2 /dev/sdc2
[06:21] <shawn> ah
[06:21] <sacarlson> Kre10s:  for a travel computer I might have wicd and wpagui avalable
[06:21] <MR^E> Windows is superior
[06:21] <elik> shawn: make sure you use the right /dev.. you might have bad surprises
[06:21] <elik> MR^E: obvious troll
[06:21] <thiefy> MR^E, that was quite the bold lie.
[06:22] <shawn> it is
[06:22] <joshrl> thiefy: It responded with VBOXADDITIONS_4.0.0_69151/
[06:22] <shawn> i am very confident
[06:22] <Chipzzz> MR^E: superior to what, MS-DOS?
[06:22] <shawn> lol
[06:22] <YankDownUnder> Yes - we're all Microsoft fans in here.
[06:22] <thiefy> joshrl,  yaaaay.   (you found that in the /media folder right?
[06:22] <MR^E> I figured
[06:22] <shawn> m 392 not bad
[06:22] <joshrl> Yup.
[06:22] <shawn> itw as 400
[06:22] <shawn> 14 MB's for the ext2 fileasystem?
[06:23] <joshrl> So I guess I use that tutorials command to install the package? (Or whatever you guys call them. :P)
[06:23] <AbhiJit> where can get documentaion on how to use this terminal server client http://tsclient.sourceforge.net/ ??
[06:23] <YankDownUnder> shawn, could be worse...
[06:23] <shawn> ?
[06:23] <thiefy> joshrl, ok, now type cd /media/VBOXADDITIONS_4.0.0_69151    then, type ls again. do you see a file called VBox...somethingsomething.sh
[06:23] <MR^E> join #centos for a real conversation
[06:23] <elik> thiefy: interesting bit: whenever I press and release the button, I can see my screen for just a few miliseconds, before it goes blank again
[06:23] <elik> can someone kick MR^E ?
[06:23] <thiefy> elik, which button is that?
[06:24] <sain> Please help. running java applets crashes my networking. What is a quick way to reset without shutting down machine
[06:24] <elik> thiefy: my lid button
[06:24] <thiefy> type /ignore MR^E
[06:24] <elik> thiefy: doesn't help with the replies :S
[06:24] <MR^E>  /ignore MR^E
[06:24] <SeaPhor> !ops | MR^E
[06:24] <YankDownUnder> sain, sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[06:24] <MR^E> !login botnet
[06:24] <joshrl> No such file or directory?
[06:24] <shawn> i'm a windows user, but i love linux, i am understanding it much better than winblowz :P
[06:24] <elik> SeaPhor: thank you :)
[06:24] <shawn> i am tyring to convert over
[06:24] <shawn> *trying lol
[06:25] <MR^E> Good luck with that
[06:25] <YankDownUnder> shawn, Good on ya.
[06:25] <thiefy> shawn, keep at er. sometimes it takes a year or so to release windows from it's clutch on your life.
[06:25] <shawn> lol
[06:25] <YankDownUnder> I'm glad that I was around before MS Windows was around.
[06:26] <shawn> whats with MR^E?
[06:26] <thiefy> joshrl, type ls /media/VBOXADDITIONS_4.0.0_69151   and msg me the results of what it finds.
[06:26] <thiefy> shawn, he hasn't been laid in 6 years.
[06:26] <shawn> oh lol
[06:26] <shawn> and i am only 17 going on 18 xD
[06:26] <shawn> would it be ~/home/Downloads?
[06:27] <joshrl> bash:  /media/VBOXADDITIONS_4.0.0_69151: No such file or directory
[06:27] <SeaPhor> elik: i actually like centos and fedora, but the #<support> from fedora and centos are nothing less than the elitest from nazi-germany
[06:27] <Chipzzz> thiefy: he runs window$... he gets screwed every time he turns on his computer
[06:27] <thiefy> shawn, now is your time. step away from that keyboard and go out and get her.
[06:27] <YankDownUnder> Dang...I can't remember what it was like to be 17 anymore...
[06:27] <shawn> lol
[06:27] <shawn> ive tried a few times
[06:27] <shawn> failed -_-
[06:27] <shawn> they dumped me
[06:27] <joshrl> I think I might restart terminal or something.
[06:27] <YankDownUnder> hehehehehehehe...yes, the elitist RH/Fedora stuff knocked me away from it...
[06:27] <thiefy> joshrl, that is odd. where did it go?  joshrl, up at the top of the vbox window, click that menu item that says install guest additions again.   then see if that folder comes back.
[06:27] <joshrl> Because I'm still in the media folder or something. :P
[06:28] <thiefy> shawn, beer helps them co-operate.
[06:28] <joshrl> The folder is there.
[06:28] <shawn> would that path i typed work?
[06:28] <joshrl> I can browser it and all.
[06:28] <shawn> id on't drink
[06:28] <shawn> * i don't
[06:28] <thiefy> joshrl, hmm, ok. get in it. and tell me what you see in there.
[06:28] <SeaPhor> shawn: are you sure? you're slurring your typing... ;)
[06:29] <guest458713> Hi everyone! I want to know which type of network adapter(pci) I have, is it 10, 100 or 1000? how to know, i tried with sysinfo not working, thanks
[06:29] <sta7ic> speaking of vbox...when I use the "right Ctl" button i cant seem to ever switch back and forth between vbox and windows...once ive went to devices and shared my usb key/mouse it cant get it back to windows
[06:29] <upsla> problem with usb Adsl modem. anyone please provide step by step instructions. modem model is beetel 100 cx
[06:29] <thiefy> shawn, yeah, it'd help if you wanted to view your downloads folder...
[06:29] <thiefy> sta7ic, did you install guest additions?
[06:29] <shawn> well extract an archive from there
[06:29] <YankDownUnder> guest458713, eth-tool
[06:29] <thiefy> in about 6 mintues, joshrl will be able to tell you how. hahah
[06:29] <joshrl> 32bit, 64bit, autorun.sh, AUTORUN.INF, VboxLinuxAdditions.run, VboxSolarisAdditions.run and the VboxWindowsAdditions...
[06:29] <guest458713> thanks
[06:29] <shawn> i am using vmware with ubuntu 10.10 :Di love virtualization
[06:30] <joshrl> >.>
[06:30] <sta7ic> thiefy: yep
[06:30] <shawn> ona 64-bit system
[06:30] <MR^E> nice sapart
[06:30] <shawn> ubuntu 64-bit
[06:30] <joshrl> Ubuntu asks if I want to run the Autorun prompt.
[06:30] <YankDownUnder> shawn, I build servers that are 10.10, running Vbox for MS crap....works like a champ.
[06:30] <joshrl> For UNIX Software.
[06:30] <thiefy> joshrl, perfect.  now right click on that autorun.sh and go to properties. under the permissions tab. click the lil pretty check box that says, allow to run file as a program. then hit ok. once that is done, go and see if it is still checked.
[06:31] <sta7ic> thiefy: yep, should I have not?
[06:31] <TornadoChas3r> Anyone mind helping me for a sec, for some reason ubuntu is saying my hard drive is out of space even though it says only 30 percent of the HDD has been used, same thing when i boot a live cd it says I have about 19 GB free, but nothing will write to the disk.
[06:31] <joshrl> thiefy: It was already checked.
[06:31] <thiefy> sta7ic, no. it is good. you want it installed.
[06:31] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: what does the command 'df -h' say
[06:31] <shawn> is their a shortcut with terminal tof ind the filepath + file you want?
[06:31] <shawn> * to find
[06:31] <YankDownUnder> TornadoChas3r, You might want to boot to the live cd and do a full disk check - that's what it sounds like...
[06:31] <sta7ic> thiefy: you mean the guest add on for usb 2.0 support?
[06:32] <thiefy> joshrl, oh, that's odd. cool.   tell me the full path to that file.   /media/VBOX... something something/autorun.sh
[06:32] <thiefy> sta7ic, yeah, it does other stuff also. display wise.
[06:32] <joshrl> I wouldn't know how to find it. >.<
[06:32] <thiefy> joshrl, isn't it at the top of your nautilus window?
[06:32] <guest458713> it's true that i can reach yhe speed of 1000M between two devices 1000M compatibe, ex: PC-PC via Router? thanks
[06:32] <MR^E> Too bad Ubuntu server has a higher elevation exploit atm
[06:32] <sta7ic> thiefy: I just specified the filters for my mouse and keyboard
[06:32] <user___> hey guys, two questions. 1) what "service" and "port" does irc run on? 2) how do i get a non-repository executable file to run? (it seems to be blocked by default) thnx
[06:32] <rww> !ot | MR^E
[06:32] <joshrl> I guess it;s /media/VBOX...something/autorun.sh/?
[06:33] <thiefy> joshrl,  yeah, but i want to know the something something part.
[06:33] <sta7ic> user___: the service is usually ircd and the port is 6667
[06:33] <sta7ic> by default
[06:33] <joshrl> Well, I can't see the path onscreen, but it should be /media/VBOXADDITIONS_4.0.0_69151/autorun.sh/
[06:33] <dr_willis2> non repo bins can run fine
[06:33] <TornadoChas3r> Im thiknking of doing a check, but it takes a long time of course. I dont see why it would happen all of the sudden though.  Im running a live cd on the server at the moment because a update also failed becuase of this and now it panics on boot
[06:33] <joshrl> Yeah.
[06:33] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: df -h
[06:33] <user___> sta7ic: thanks but it doesn't list that service in firestarter (firewall)
[06:34] <thiefy> joshrl,  cool. ok, in a terminal type this:  cd /media/VBOXADDITIONS_4.0.0_69151/
[06:34] <TornadoChas3r> ya i did it, i need to send a screenshot of it though hold on
[06:34] <joshrl> It has the small hard disk icon, then media, then VBOX.
[06:34] <TornadoChas3r> wait.. give me a second to run ssh on here
[06:34] <xcthulhu> I have a Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 wifi network controller, on a netbook with no wired ethernet connection
[06:34] <thiefy> joshrl,  then once yer in that folder, type sudo sh ./autorun.sh
[06:34] <elik> thiefy: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/BlankScreen
[06:34] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: are you using command line irc? if so, type /exec -o df -h
[06:34] <user___> so i downloaded a program i want to use in wine, but its blocked by default as an executable (presumably because it wasn't download via repository). how can i bypass this?
[06:34] <xcthulhu> Any advice on how to install wifi?
[06:34] <thiefy> hmm, i'll have to read that in a sec elik.
[06:34] <elik> thiefy: I so happen to have "lockup when closing lid with intel graphics" and am about to do the Force Pipe A Quirk thingy :D
[06:35] <joshrl> And type my password I assume. :P
[06:35] <dr_willis2> uset[06:35] <user___> stat7ic: actually that worked for irc, thank you.
[06:35] <sta7ic> elik: it probably locks up because it tries to sleep
[06:35] <Rob___> Can someone help me with Ubuntu 10.10 installation on a PC with Xp, I have had issues attempting to load the OS for the past week
[06:35] <elik> thiefy: more to the point: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Quirks#Force Pipe A Quirk
[06:35] <joshrl> It's working!
[06:35] <sta7ic> user___: np
[06:35] <xcthulhu> user__: You can right click the file, and check the "make executable" box
[06:35] <elik> sta7ic: I prevented sleeping on lid close
[06:35] <thiefy> joshrl, yep. you can't type my password. silly goose.
[06:35] <dr_willis2> user. use. wine foo.exe. not the gui
[06:35] <thiefy> good job!
[06:35] <sta7ic> elik: what about suspend
[06:35] <joshrl> :P
[06:36] <xcthulhu> user___, Or, if you are at the command line, you can type "chmod +x /path/to/file"
[06:36] <elik> sta7ic: and the laptop can actually go to sleep, but doesn't in that case
[06:36] <user___> i am right clicking and opening with wine and its telling me its untrusted
[06:36] <shawn> wow i can't extract without permisisons..
[06:36] <shawn> how do i do that?
[06:36] <user___> ok xcthulhu, i'll try that thankyou
[06:36] <Rob___> can someone helo a newb trying to switch to UBuntu thorough this install?
[06:36] <Rob___> Please respinf
[06:36] <Rob___> respond
[06:36] <sta7ic> elik: does the laptop lock up or does the monitor just turn off, for example, can you still ssh into the laptop when you close the lid or ping ?
[06:37] <xcthulhu> Rob___, What do you need?
[06:37] <thiefy> Rob___, boot the computer with your ubuntu live cd  or usb key. run the gparted program. (or whatever they call it, partition editor) then, shrink down your winders partition, add a new partition, then you can install ubuntu to it. after you reboot.
[06:37] <user___> tahnks everyone
[06:37] <Rob___> I did and it keeps booting to Xp and not the CD
[06:37] <Rob___> I have checked the boot order and it is set to boot from the CD drive first yet it still boots to XP
[06:37] <shawn> how do i sudocopy?
[06:37] <thiefy> Rob___, then try hitting esc  as it just very first turns on. or you might need to hit F12 or F10 or soemthing. you need to tell the cojmputer to boot to the cd and not the hard drive. that's all.
[06:37] <xcthulhu> Rob___, You need to press "escape" or F1 right when it boots up to get into firmware
[06:37] <shawn> sudo cp and then the paths?
[06:37] <SeaPhor> Rob___: can you edit bios settings to boot to cd?
[06:38] <elik> sta7ic: I can ssh in
[06:38] <xcthulhu> Rob___, All BIOS systems are different, but your computer should say what to hit right when it boots up
[06:38] <Rob___> Can u tell me how to do that?
[06:38] <xcthulhu> Unless it's a mac
[06:38] <sta7ic> Rob___: you need to change the bios to boot default to CD and not hard drive? sometimes you have it set to boot of CD first, but then you have to go and put the correct CDROM in the first spot
[06:38] <joshrl> Okies, that went successfully, now to restart and change resolution!
[06:38] <Rob___> I have a COMPAQ Presario SR2010NX
[06:38] <sooan> how can i install ubuntu byssh if on target machine the ubuntu.iso lies?
[06:38] <sta7ic> otheriwse it will boot to the next device when it doesnt detect a CD
[06:38] <thiefy> ok, now 4 people have said the same thing to Rob___
[06:38] <thiefy> hah
[06:38] <shawn> or hwo do i copy a fodler?
[06:39] <Chipzzz> Rob___:When the computer boots, it should tell which key to press to enter setup
[06:39] <hole_> i got one more issue i've installed ubuntu 1010 on an hp touchsmart tablet pc and everything works flawlessly exept the wifi anyone know anything about this(i've googled the issue already)
[06:39] <thiefy> Pressing F10 opens the BIOS of Compaq Presario desktops 2001 and earlier.Pressing F1 opens the BIOS of the S3000 series, 6400 series, and 2002 models
[06:39] <_Neytiri_> how do i determine if a character is not in a string of data eg find if # is in $eData[2]
[06:39] <shawn> into /411 MB Filesystem/lib/modules?
[06:39] <sta7ic> elik: sadly i think i have come across that a long time ago, like them monitor wont turn back on or the video card stops...what happens if you switch monitors like function key and monitor button the laptop
[06:39] <Rob___> Right and the CD drive is in the first position of the que
[06:39] <_Neytiri_> whops wogn chan
[06:40] <thiefy> Rob___, how did you burn that ubuntu cd?
[06:40] <TornadoChas3r> sorry for the delay, here is the ouput of df -h
[06:40] <TornadoChas3r> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/y5NmJ3Fw
[06:40] <sta7ic> Rob___: double check the bios, sometimes there is more than one setting to force it to boot into CD...pain in #$%!
[06:40] <SeaPhor> Rob___: in POST press F9-key, or ESC-key
[06:40] <joshrl> I was hoping for it to be my resolution, but I guess this big'll do. >.<
[06:40] <thiefy> he might have burnt that iso wrong....
[06:40] <Rob___> Its a good copy it opens on my laptop as my previous copy was burned too fast and was bad.This time its not the CD
[06:41] <elik> sta7ic: didn't try that yet
[06:41] <thiefy> joshrl, see up where you clicked install guest crap?  go to the first menu up there and try out 'seamless mode'  you will get a wood.
[06:41] <KM0201> xcthulhu: did you get your broadcom driver installed?
[06:41] <elik> Where's that darn xorg.conf... looks like it's not there anymore. All I can find is xorg.conf.d
[06:41] <thiefy> Rob___, what program did you use to burn that cd?  did kyou burn it as a bootable iso? or just burn the iso file onto the cd?
[06:41] <joshrl> Whoa.
[06:42] <joshrl> It mixed Ubuntu and Windows 7 together!
[06:42] <thiefy> joshrl, oh yes.   it is good.
[06:42] <thiefy> yep.
[06:42] <Rob___> nti
[06:42] <shawn> how do i copy an entire folder with CLI?
[06:42] <thiefy> i knew you'd like that better.
[06:42] <Kre10s> restarting network gives an error: /etc/network/interfaces unknown address type... where can I read a list of allowable types?
[06:42] <shawn> into the folder i am presently in
[06:42] <sta7ic> shawn: cp -R
[06:42] <sta7ic> ultra recrusive
[06:42] <elik> joshrl: what's that?
[06:42] <joshrl> I'll have to get used to it though, because it keeps focusing out.
[06:42] <sta7ic> shawn: cp -R /home/moo .
[06:42] <shawn> ah
[06:42] <joshrl> elik: I'm using Seamless Mode.
[06:42] <xcthulhu> KM0201, Not yet.  I read here that 2.6.37 has a FOSS driver, so I just installed that kernel and I'm trying *right now*. http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/brcm80211
[06:43] <joshrl> It makes Ubuntu a overlay atop of your host OS.
[06:43] <thiefy> shawn, do cp -r /foldername /otherfoldernameof where you want it.
[06:43] <KM0201> xcthulhu: you're making it a LOT harder than it needs to be...  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[06:43] <thiefy> shawn, sorry, it's a capital R
[06:43] <xcthulhu> KM0201, I don't have a wired connection
[06:43] <shawn> cp: invalid option -- '~'
[06:43] <KM0201> xcthulhu: then follow the directions for "no internet connection"
[06:43] <whosisthis\> heg
[06:44] <whosisthis\> hey
[06:44] <SeaPhor> shawn: its lower-case r
[06:44] <fix> HAI GUISE
[06:44] <sta7ic> elik: dont you hate when they change stuff that works, like inetd.conf
[06:44] <elik> joshrl: that integrates windows in linux, pretty cool. I tried using portable linux, but it had issues with x64 :(
[06:44] <sta7ic> shawn: cp -R /home/moo .
[06:44] <thiefy> i did a capital R and it worked..
[06:44] <shawn> not working
[06:44] <sta7ic> one -
[06:44] <sta7ic> not two

[06:44] <Chipzzz> shawn: -R, not --R
[06:45] <sta7ic> shawn: need a space
[06:45] <thiefy> shawn, put a space after the -R
[06:45] <fix> Hey I have two wan ports, I dont want to load balance or failover, nothing special, I just want the outside world to be able to reach my box on both WANS, Its all nated, but the only way either port will be accessable is if I change the gateway between the two, and then only one wan will be accessable, this is ghey, how do I make them both accesable at the same time???
[06:45] <elik> sta7ic: with a quick read on inetd, I'm not sure I'd be sad about that one :)
[06:45] <shawn> ah i only have one dash lol
[06:45] <sta7ic>  sudo cp -R ~/home/Desktop/2.6.25-jlimee .
[06:45] <matt__> how do i find the cool rooms

[06:52] <xcthulhu> You the man :D
[06:52] <thiefy> i know waht a flood is. but 2 or 3 lines in my opinion is not a flood. it's a sprinkle of rain.
[06:52] <xcthulhu> Thanks for all your help dude
[06:52] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: there might be a lock or something, try running a apt-get install command

[06:53] <fizy[laptop]> Blue1 what?
[06:53] <lickalott> hello all
[06:53] <lickalott> got a quick question for anyone that can answer
[06:54] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: long shot but worth a try to run: dpkg --configure -a
[06:54] <_jesse_> lickalott: throw it out there
[06:54] <xcthulhu> KM0201, STA
[06:54] <thiefy> lickalott, i can if it's an easy question.
[06:54] <matt__> fine ill wikipedia irc
[06:54] <KM0201> ok
[06:54] <ao> whats the best music player for Ubuntu?
[06:54] <matt__> fine
[06:54] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: very long shot
[06:54] <Blue1> fizy[laptop]: it's an mp3 player and more.  if you are runing 10.10 you can simply do a:  sudo apt-get install guayadeque
[06:54] <xcthulhu> KM0201, And I spoke too soon...
[06:54] <KM0201> lol
[06:54] <TornadoChas3r> well it asks me to do apt-get -f install
[06:54] <thiefy> ao i like using audacious.  it is EXACTLY like winamp.
[06:54] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: what about running fsck -y on the device
[06:54] <lickalott> winblows updates fuq'd my system.  I'm now booted to 10.10 and mounted my hdd
[06:54] <Kre10s> ao: depends... I use Rhythmbox
[06:54] <fizy[laptop]> bluel im running 10.04. does guayadeque work with ipods?
[06:54] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: sounds like some sort of lock I would do what it asks?
[06:55] <Blue1> fizy[laptop]: dunno I don't own anything made by apple
[06:55] <lickalott> is there a way, short of copy and paste, I can backup the entire content through ubuntu?
[06:55] <elik> sta7ic: I just tried pressing those buttons (display related buttons) and they don't do anything
[06:55] <fizy[laptop]> Blue1 nvm
[06:55] <AbhiJit> i am getting error that some packages cant be authenticated while installint clamav. should i just continue or what elses i can do?
[06:55] <Blue1> lickalott: are you trying to recover the installed ubuntu or?
[06:55] <_jesse_> lickalott: back up the windows data you mean?
[06:55] <TornadoChas3r> I did, it trys to install the update again, which is what i need it to do, only problem is when it trys to install it cant becuase it claims there is no space lef ton the drive
[06:55] <thiefy> lickalott, yes. launch nautilus you can use it to mount your windows partitons and copy and paste your windows files to where ever you want.
[06:55] <shawn> do i need the .Trash-1000 folder?
[06:55] <TornadoChas3r> but when i check the drive has about 19gb free
[06:55] <Guest60696> @lickalott try sback - you can get it from repositories
[06:56] <sta7ic> elik: sounds like am monitor issue like it cant resume from black screen/blank screen, someone may have a fix if you can find xorg.conf
[06:56] <Guest60696> *sbackup*
[06:56] <KM0201> xcthulhu: what happened to it?
[06:56] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: packagemangers can do weird things, sounds like a lock
[06:56] <lickalott> yes _jesse_ trying to get all my windows stuff w/o copy and paste
[06:56] <shawn> ?
[06:56] <TornadoChas3r> Well my main probelm is the hard drive space, even before i ran the updtae it started
[06:56] <thiefy> sta7ic, this is a good webpage for blank screen problems.   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/BlankScreen
[06:56] <lickalott> tks 60696.  i'll try that
[06:56] <elik> sta7ic: that pipe thing sounded promising...
[06:56] <shawn> do i need that folder
[06:56]  * lickalott goes to repositories
[06:56] <TornadoChas3r> things were not writing to the disk, i just made everything worse by running the update
[06:57] <thiefy> elik had blank screen problems. and he found that page is good.
[06:57] <Blue1> lickalott: you could use rsync
[06:57] <matt__> i still dont get it
[06:57] <xcthulhu> KM0201, Froze X for a minute, didn't connect, now asking me for my password again
[06:57] <lickalott> rsync?  talk to me
[06:57] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: ok...ah check 'mount' maybe its in read only
[06:57] <KM0201> xcthulhu: thats strange
[06:57] <thiefy> lickalott, do you want to keep using windows? or switch to linux?
[06:57] <shawn> should i delete .Trash-1000?
[06:57] <Blue1> lickalott: rsync is a utility that will make a logical backup
[06:58] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: is the filesystem in read write or read only also, what does /var/log/messages have to say?
[06:58] <xcthulhu> KM0201, Well, I'm running kernel version 2.6.37 so I might go downgrade
[06:58] <lickalott> want to restore the windows rig.
[06:58] <rww> shawn: it's a trash folder. it's where stuff you move to trash in Nautilus goes. if you don't want it, delete it.
[06:58] <xcthulhu> The BCM driver page lists my card as "partially supported"
[06:58] <shawn> ah thanky ou
[06:58] <sta7ic> thiefy: thanks, elik did you see theify's link
[06:58] <shawn> *thank you
[06:58] <KM0201> why did you go to 2.6.37
[06:58] <Blue1> lickalott: ahh rsync prolly not best candidate for that- copy/paste
[06:58] <lickalott> i have a dedicated computer that dual boots backtrack and ubuntu.  i had to build a usb drive real quick for this
[06:58] <sta7ic> rsync why not scp
[06:58] <elik> sta7ic: yeah, I think it was a circular reference :D
[06:58] <xcthulhu> KM0201, BCM driver page said it has a FOSS driver for this card
[06:58] <Guest60696> Is anyone using the XChat client right now?
[06:58] <xcthulhu> tried that before you pointed me in the right direction
[06:58] <KM0201> xcthulhu: thats the STA driver

[06:59] <thiefy> lickalott, then forget rsync or back up programs. use the file manager program (like windows explorer)  click on your windows hard drive to mount it. and then you can see all the files and just copy and paste them to whereever you want.  very simle.
[06:59] <sooan> is there somewhere a tutorial on how to congiure custom menu entries in grub2?
[06:59] <lickalott> *sigh
[06:59] <elik> sta7ic: I just pointed him to that page :D But I'm having a hard time implementing the solution
[06:59] <Blue1> sta7ic: i guess you could scp to the same computer, why not?
[06:59] <lickalott> kk
[06:59] <thiefy> Guest60696, i am.
[06:59] <sta7ic> ./avamar data dedup that sheet.
[06:59] <rww> Guest60696: lots of people. What's your actual question?
[06:59] <lickalott> tks for the help guys!!
[06:59]  * lickalott goes to drag and drop
[06:59] <thiefy> lickalott, yeah, dead simple.
[06:59] <Guest60696> ..
[07:00] <matt__> say all you have is irc and a command line, how do you find stuff
[07:00] <thiefy> lickalott, they thought you wanted to keep that winders install. you don't. you want to take the files off it. not back them up to linux.
[07:00] <sta7ic> matt__: lynx
[07:00] <xcthulhu> KM0201, I'll go back to the regular kernel, and then I'll go try  making a wifi network without a pass phrase...
[07:00] <sta7ic> hah
[07:00] <AbhiJit> !find
[07:00] <Blue1> matt__: lynx?
[07:00] <AbhiJit> :/
[07:00] <shawn> WoW!
[07:00] <shawn> I got it
[07:00] <shawn> xD
[07:00] <sta7ic> Blue1: nice same comment as me =P
[07:00] <matt__> why not firefox, how does that help
[07:00] <thiefy> matt__, i just ask my girlfriend to go find it.
[07:00] <Guest60696> @thiefy do you know if there's a way to add a margin between each of the comments people are making?
[07:00] <shawn> i got to jornada7xx login:
[07:00] <shawn> :D
[07:00] <awk> Hi does ubuntu have a console tool for configuring on your interfaces or must I just edit /etc/network/interfaces ?
[07:00] <yuler> Why do not see any results for "tidy" in searching in Ubuntu Software Center, but see 27 with "apt-cache search tidy"?
[07:00] <matt__> i dont do that, theify, i know better
[07:01] <thiefy> Guest60696, so it is like it is double spaced?
[07:01] <AbhiJit> awk, just run nano /etc/network/interfaces from terminal
[07:01] <Blue1> sta7ic: I've never quite mastered lynx or whatever replaced it
[07:01] <Guest60696> I can't distinguish nothing.
[07:01] <AbhiJit> !nano | awk
[07:01] <lickalott> was looking for something that would allow me to backup all the winblows stuff (i.e. ghost, Acronis, etc...)
[07:01] <shawn> Jlime Mongo jornada7xx ttyl1
[07:01] <matt__> what does lynx have to do with irc
[07:01] <shawn> err tty1
[07:01] <taran> is there a forum for CUPS?
[07:01] <taran> !CUPS
[07:01] <matt__> <-- ignernt
[07:01] <lickalott> didn't think it was possible via cross platform
[07:01]  * Blue1 is no linux weenie and uses nano
[07:01] <sta7ic> elik: paste me the link let me look..
[07:01] <boot> how to install iplist-0.29.tar.bz2
[07:01] <Guest60696> @thiefy yes, like a paragraph for each comment
[07:02] <AbhiJit> !compile | boot
[07:02] <boot> how to install iplist-0.29.tar.bz2?
[07:02] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: sorry did i miss your response, is the FS mounted as read only?
[07:02] <shawn> wow
[07:02] <boot> i extracked the tar.bz
[07:02] <AbhiJit> boot cd to the extracted folder then to ./configure then make or make install
[07:03] <sta7ic> boot: bzunzip2 iplist-0.29.tar.bz2;tar -xvf iplist-0.29.tar
[07:03] <shawn> ohh my got i never new linux could be so beautifull on a jornada
[07:03] <shawn> 720
[07:04] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: FS in read only? what init level are you at heh
[07:04] <swazzy> How do i turn off compiz?
[07:04] <shawn> and its fast
[07:04] <chaospsychex> jornada 720?
[07:04] <thiefy> Guest60696, i really don't think you can double space the chat window.
[07:04] <shawn> yes
[07:04] <sta7ic> swazzy: somewhere deep there is a compiz admin gui, you have to enable the icon for it to show up or launch it command line
[07:05] <danjosh> hi just install apache and php
[07:05] <matt__> somewhere deep
[07:05] <glaceman> any body could please suggest a program for running a virtual machine ? like vmware for ubuntu please
[07:05] <yuler> how can I see all the !commands ubottu responds to?  There must be a cornucopia of useful advice in it's memory
[07:05] <Blue1> swazzy: it;s pretty easy actually
[07:05] <danjosh> also install userdir but can't run php file
[07:05] <shawn> it runs soo fast
[07:05] <danjosh> any idea? thanks
[07:05] <sazhen86> glaceman, you could use VMware or VirtualBox
[07:05] <shawn> icewm
[07:05] <swazzy> ok
[07:06] <matt__> usually good advice, you have to pay for
[07:06] <Blue1> swazzy: System/Preferences/Appearance/Visual Effects/set to none
[07:06] <glaceman> sazhen86: thanks
[07:06] <shawn> wow, it took me this long to get it working xD
[07:06] <thiefy> glaceman, it's called virtualbox.
[07:06] <sta7ic> Blue1: or right click on the desktop
[07:06] <sta7ic> right?
[07:06] <glaceman> im installing vmware user agent
[07:06] <rww> ubottu: tell yuler about bot
[07:06] <thiefy> glaceman, when you get virtualbox. make sure you get the one that isn't the OSE one. or you won't get usb working in it.
[07:07] <kyo> what's the functions of the virtualbox~?
[07:07] <Guest60696> Anyone know of a common directory name for an application's GUI style?
[07:07] <danjosh> hi i can't run php script in public_html
[07:07] <thiefy> kyo the same as vmware. cept it's free.
[07:07] <Blue1> sta7ic: well at least not in my version of gnome - can't do that
[07:07] <yuler> nice robot.
[07:07] <thiefy> kyo. you can use it to run windows inside of linux.  two at once!
[07:07] <xcthulhu> KM0201, Okay, now it is working for reals
[07:07] <KM0201> xcthulhu: well thats a relief
[07:07] <danjosh> what configuration i am missing?
[07:07] <danjosh> thanks
[07:07] <glaceman> KM0201: hi there
[07:07] <sta7ic> Blue1: i know in ubuntu, there is a compiz admin gui you can turn off specific effects if you want to leave some on
[07:07] <glaceman> KM0201: good to see u around
[07:07] <sta7ic> i just remember it being a bear to find
[07:07] <xcthulhu> :D  This channel + the forums is exactly why I switched to ubuntu
[07:07] <xcthulhu> You guys all rock
[07:08] <rww> !ccsm | Blue1, sta7ic
[07:08] <Blue1> kyo: allows us to try out new operating systems, without any risk - I have windows xp installed in a virtual box, so I don't have to fire up winxp when I need to use windows
[07:08] <sta7ic> xcthulhu: tell us something we dont knwo =P
[07:08] <swazzy> thank you
[07:08] <sta7ic> rww: thanks
[07:08] <Blue1> rww: oh I thought he just wanted to disable it -
[07:08] <thiefy> sta7ic, what about system - prefs - appearance and killing it on that last tab - visual effects
[07:08] <sta7ic> root@Hendrix:/etc/X11# locate compizconfig-settings-manager
[07:08] <sta7ic> root@Hendrix:/etc/X11#
[07:08] <sta7ic> doh
[07:08] <Blue1> thiefy: that's what I posted earlier
[07:09] <thiefy> oh. heh.
[07:09] <Sincide> Hey ppl.. I got this wierd question for a school assignment, and I cant for the life of me find the answer, a little help please.
[07:09] <sta7ic> its ok im not lookign for it right now anyway it was for someone else who asked..im irc'd via putty
[07:09] <Sincide> What operation should never be performed using fsck command?
[07:09] <Blue1> Sincide: mounting a disc
[07:10] <sta7ic> im having VBox issues where i cant seemt to use the hotkey to go back and forth between VM and windows
[07:10] <danjosh> hi i can't run php script in public_html
[07:10] <rww> Sincide: checking a mounted filesystem
[07:10] <lazarus_> what does pae mean so on my kernel boot i have kernel 2.6.35-23-pae
[07:10] <rww> !pae | lazarus_
[07:10] <_jesse_> danjosh: probably a web server misconfiguration, ask your respective channel
[07:10] <lazarus_> ah ok
[07:10] <Sincide> Aha.. So fsck is only good when checking unmounted fsś?
[07:10] <sta7ic> Sincide: --force -y probably since it will auto clean bad sectors or possibly he wants you to not run it on mounted filesystems
[07:10] <sazhen86> glaceman, where are you installing the VMware user agent?
[07:11] <Blue1> Sincide: yup
[07:11] <Sincide> Thank you very much folks :)
[07:11] <sta7ic> Sincide: dont blame us if you fail
[07:11] <sta7ic> d0h
[07:11] <thiefy> sta7ic, did you install guest additions in the vm?
[07:11] <_jesse_> danjosh: it's #httpd for apache as is the most common
[07:11] <sta7ic> thiefy: yes for usb 2.0 support
[07:12] <Blue1> thiefy: those are pretty hard to find on the site - I had to schleep around for it.
[07:12] <taran> I want to join adiffernt channel what to do
[07:12] <KM0201> glaceman: are you still trying to install vbox?
[07:12] <taran> #cups
[07:12] <thiefy> sta7ic, then i would think you do not need to hit a button to move your mouse out of the vm.   i don't...
[07:12] <glaceman> KM0201: i installed vmware stuff
[07:12] <sta7ic> thiefy: i have a feeling my filters arent added right or something, dont know
[07:12] <Sincide> Heh, I wont.... Iḿ just superstudying for a final exam tomorrow.. Sooo nervous
[07:12] <glaceman> didn't do anything when i click on it application --> others -- > vmware
[07:12] <sta7ic> thiefy: under 'usb' do you just have it enabled
[07:12] <thiefy> sta7ic, i don't need a filter to use the mouse.. it just works.
[07:13] <glaceman> so i went on google, typed in : virtualbox, and im download a .deb from the original website
[07:13] <KM0201> glaceman: same thing really, you do not have enough ram to run two OS's
[07:13] <glaceman> KM0201: 2 GB ram
[07:13] <glaceman> should be enough ?
[07:13] <sta7ic> thiefy: ok if i reboot its because i got stuck in vbox
[07:13] <KM0201> glaceman: oh ok.. i thought you only had 512mb
[07:13] <thiefy> sta7ic, yeah, i have both checkboxes in there checked.
[07:13] <rww> Sincide: Correct. If you try to do it anyway: "WARNING!!!  Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause SEVERE filesystem damage. Do you really want to continue (y/n)?". If you give an answer other than "n", you're giving the wrong answer.
[07:13] <sta7ic> thiefy: ive tried multiple configs...can you tell me what you have checked off under usb
[07:13] <KM0201> glaceman: use virtualbox, its way better/easier than vmware
[07:13] <sta7ic> ok thanks
[07:14] <thiefy> sta7ic, yeah, i have both checkboxes in there checked.   and nothing in the 'filters' area. it's blank.
[07:14] <sta7ic> ok brb
[07:14] <Blue1> rww: correct you should NEVER run e2fsck on a mounted fs -- disaster will ensure
[07:14] <rww> ^ what I just said
[07:14] <Sincide> rww Thanks :)
[07:14] <Blue1> rww: indeed
[07:14] <thiefy> Blue1, unless it is your ex-girlfriends mounted fs. then it's a good thing.
[07:14] <Blue1> thiefy: :-)
[07:14] <yuler> Why do not see any results for "tidy" in searching in Ubuntu Software Center?  I see 27 with "apt-cache search tidy"?  Are these processes not the same?
[07:14] <rww> yuler: no, they're not
[07:15] <matt__> how do i get out of underscoreland
[07:15] <Blue1> thiefy: or a cron job
[07:15] <sta7ic> if theres IO on the dev you may be able to fsck it? i dont know
[07:16] <upsla> problem with usb Adsl modem. anyone please provide step by step instructions. modem model is beetel 100 cx
[07:16] <thiefy> Blue1, she gave me good cron jobs.
[07:16] <sta7ic> matt__: underscore land? /nick newnick
[07:16] <rww> thiefy: enough of that, please :\
[07:16] <kingofthelosers> rawr
[07:16] <sta7ic> wow adsl modem? i remember dealing with that in 2000
[07:17] <sta7ic> what was the script homegrown we used back then =/
[07:17] <kingofthelosers> ok now whats a one liner to get the attention of all the hot chicks
[07:17] <wyclif> kingofthelosers: FTW
[07:17] <yuler> rww: ah, apt-cache is used by synaptic.  Silly moi.
[07:17] <rww> yuler: actually, I think synaptic has its own thing too, but searches the same fields as apt-cache
[07:17] <sirscrubsalot> if you had 30gb hdd with P3 1gb ram (laptop for hibernation) how much would you allocate for "/" "swap" and "home" - planning on installing Lubuntu - for now i was going to keep 2gb for swap / can't decide on the home vs / sizes - this will be a single boot OS laptop. also was planning on using ext4 filesystem *very new to linux / 1st time install
[07:18] <thiefy> kingofthelosers,  if that is what you want to find. this channel is prob the wrong place to look for that.
[07:18] <shawn> wow this card reader sucks
[07:18] <kingofthelosers> this is 2011. if youre swapping to disk youre doing something wrong
[07:18] <rww> kingofthelosers: /msg ubottu !pickup is useful.
[07:18] <kingofthelosers> theres no good place to look for it
[07:18] <thiefy> sirscrubsalot, i would do 7 gigs for / and one gig for swap and the rest as your /home
[07:19] <sta7ic> sirscrubsalot: the general rule for swap is you double the RAM size but i think that rule is getting a little outdated
[07:19] <kingofthelosers> run atop, if you hit swap, go to frys
[07:19] <sirscrubsalot> kingofthelosers - like i said, it's an old machine - we're not all privy to high end equipment
[07:19] <kingofthelosers> this is 2011. toilet paper is more expensive than ram
[07:20] <kingofthelosers> it costs me 2 gigs every time i wipe my butt
[07:20] <upsla> ubottu:!in
[07:20] <sirscrubsalot> right kingofthelosers, just budgeting for now - i only have a year left of med school / then i can worry about getting something better perhaps...
[07:21] <thiefy> sirscrubsalot, i would do 7 gigs for / and one gig for swap and the rest as your /home
[07:21] <kingofthelosers> med school? you will be replaced by a very small robot.
[07:21] <rww> !ot
[07:22] <kingofthelosers> i havent used irc in about a decade. how do you find the cool channels
[07:22] <TornadoChas3r> came across another thread, somone who had the same problem - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1071572
[07:22] <sirscrubsalot> thiefy - yeah thanks for the input - i was reading though if you plan on using the laptop for hibernation, that swap needs to be doubled, then again - i've seen most suggestions from google search saying 1gb should be sufficient / mainly using this rig for firefox and openoffice and some vlc digital playback
[07:22] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: run 'mount' and verify fs isnt read only
[07:22] <sta7ic> i will look at post
[07:22] <rww> kingofthelosers: 1) This is an open source software network, not a general chat network. 2) Once again, #ubuntu is for Ubuntu linux technical support. Go ask #ubuntu-offtopic about "cool channels" or whatever.
[07:23] <TornadoChas3r> I can write files to the disk and remove them so its writable, but not i cant do any updates without getting an disk full error
[07:23] <kingofthelosers> ok so how do i get my sound card to not sound like shit
[07:24] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: sudo dpkg --clear-avail
[07:24] <sta7ic> did that work for you?
[07:24] <TornadoChas3r> tried it
[07:24] <TornadoChas3r> it did something, but i cant run updates on anything
[07:24] <sta7ic> I think you are reading too much into the full filesystem, it looks like .deb is corrupted
[07:24] <sta7ic> theres got to be a way to clear that crap out
[07:25] <sta7ic> dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/tzdata_2009b-1_all.deb (--unpack): unable to create `./usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Menominee': No space left on device
[07:25] <TornadoChas3r> i can even remove that package without getting the disk full error
[07:25] <Guest60696> HEllo wondering.... is there an app for Ubuntu (in repositories) that'll make turn my computer's interface into a AIUI instead of GUI -- like Rommie from TV Episode Andromeda
[07:26] <sta7ic> its like tzdata.deb is corrupt and cannot unpack and thats the default error msg or something
[07:26] <kingofthelosers> this has to be the most boring chat room evar
[07:26] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: what about unmounting and running fsck -y just for the he@# of it
[07:26] <sta7ic> youd had to live CD or something
[07:26] <rww> kingofthelosers: Your insistance on being offtopic in a support channel bores me. Stop it.
[07:27] <kingofthelosers> its spelled insistence
[07:27] <sirscrubsalot> from my understanding about the /home directory - it's where your personal files (i.e. documents/pictures/videos/music albums) would go right? anything else that defualts to there?
[07:27] <kingofthelosers> sorry
[07:27] <Guest60696> This is a support channel, not your personal entertainment room - fshh
[07:27] <TornadoChas3r> Im on a live CD at the moment
[07:28] <kingofthelosers> i would like some support in finding the personal entertainment rooms, what channel do i need to join
[07:28] <Guest60696> People here, like me, are look for serious help - I want app for Artifical Intelligence
[07:28] <rww> Guest60696: As far as I'm aware, there isn't one.
[07:28] <TornadoChas3r> i just took some advice from http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=157250 and thought id give it a shot maybe i could fix that failed update it did
[07:28] <sta7ic> FIXED IT!!!!
[07:28] <sta7ic> Of all things it was the freaking date! I changed the date and it ran like a dream.
[07:29] <sta7ic> thats a post from someone else
[07:29] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r:
[07:29] <sta7ic> looks like someone fixed the date and stopped failing with a simular error
[07:30] <user> hey guys. i just installed wine and applied a program-specific patch to it. now whenever i try to load a program in wine it loads and nothing happens. i'm a total noob, is there some way to test that wine is working correctly?
[07:30] <Guest60696> There could be AI already built in to Ubuntu; logging everything you type and search - and you'd never know
[07:30] <user> as a side note, i'm trying to get subspace continuum to work and i had to apply a specific subspace patch to the wine kernel
[07:30] <rww> Guest60696: Ubuntu is open source, so... yes. We would.
[07:31] <thiefy> hah. soo true rrw.
[07:31] <shawn> who has a ben nanote?
[07:31] <Guest60696> Have you personally been through all Linux source-code - I don't think so :p
[07:31] <sta7ic> user: run wine command line to see if it gives you exit error codes?
[07:31] <rww> Guest60696: no, but people I trust have
[07:32] <Guest60696> And everything is open-source, nothing is compiled? :p
[07:32] <user> sta7ic: "segmentation fault" is the error i'm given
[07:32] <rww> Guest60696: additionally, I've run traffic sniffing against Ubuntu boxes, and they don't send anything problematic by themselves
[07:32] <sta7ic> user: verify you can get another exe working via cmd line and its not a DISPLAY:0 issue, like notepad.exe
[07:33] <sta7ic> if notepad comes up, but your other app seg faults with no error...hmmm
[07:33] <user> sta7ic: just "wine notepad.exe"??
[07:33] <user> sta7ic: if so, i get the same segmentation fault

[07:39] <thiefy> sudo is long for super user do

[07:41] <sta7ic> user: basically if you termnial in and then 'su' and then run a command line wine which spits GUI ti DISPLAY:0 it wont know where to go, so you want to make sure you dont have any of that going on
[07:41] <sunit> smonsarr : then what shall I do /
[07:42] <aurilliance> sazhen86, do now - I'll try again.
[07:42] <sunit> smonsarr : then ?
[07:42] <user> sta7ic: running "su -username; wine notepad.exe" returns "su: invalid option - - 'u'... etc etc "segmentation fault"
[07:42] <shawn> how do i clear CLI?
[07:42] <sta7ic> user: its
[07:43] <duron23> Hi pupil, good after noon
[07:43] <sta7ic> shawn: clear
[07:43] <shawn> oh lol
[07:43] <duron23> anyone tried evolution with exchange 2007 ?
[07:43] <thiefy> aaaaah. sta7ic i had a very heated arguement with a guy on here once about what su stood for. he was calling me a moron for saying it was substite user  or suppose user. he said it was super user.  (that was like a year ago)  so i was right all along! yay.
[07:44] <user> apologies.. i ran the "-username" in stead of "- username".. now completing that command seems to do nothing
[07:44] <sta7ic> user: its 'su - user' with the space, the - means it brings over the env of that user. in this case tho i dont think thats going to work anyway, do this instead, open a new gnome-terminal and first cmd you run is 'wine notepad.exe' make sure thats the correct syntax, i dont have wine installed
[07:44] <sta7ic> let me install wine, brb
[07:44] <user> you're very kind, thank you
[07:44] <fenix849> Hi, im having issues getting S/PDIF working under ubuntu.
[07:45] <duron23> shawn: clear
[07:45] <thiefy> wine notepad.exe does work.
[07:45] <sta7ic> thiefy: thanks
[07:45] <user> new terminal. "wine notepad.exe" returns "segmentation error"
[07:45] <smonsarr> sunit: looks like you may have a HD pb. So I would boot from a Live CD, use Gparted to see if the partitions on you HD are still visible, if so attempt to mount the one thta has your /home and make a bacpup of you data to a USB drive.
[07:45] <TornadoChas3r> got this error again, this happend the first time when i was still in ubuntu
[07:45] <TornadoChas3r> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/bW7VxkGr
[07:45] <duron23> anyone with evolution and exchange 2007 ?
[07:45] <sta7ic> user: type echo $DISPLAY
[07:45] <elik> thiefy: su can allow you to be some other user too.... su otheruser
[07:45] <sta7ic> user: type: echo $DISPLAY
[07:45] <jerem> hello everybody
[07:46] <Ascavasaion> When I play Audio CDs through VLC it keeps hiccupping .... the hard disk LED is flashing... is Linux/VLC coping to hard disk and playing from there and then hiccupping when it gets bottlenecked/overloaded?
[07:46] <user> returned ":0.0"
[07:46] <smonsarr> sunit: if Gparted does not see you HD then it looks like it's cooked.
[07:46] <jerem> I have problem installing Lucid Lynx, is it right channel ?
[07:47] <sta7ic> user: what was that not owned by you error sounds like a permisson thing, try this 'su root' then try 'wine notepad.exe'
[07:47] <sunit> smonsarr : ok. I can recover data. Do you think I have to format the machine ? ubuntu not recoverable ?
[07:47] <sazhen86> jerem, fire away with your question
[07:47] <sta7ic> user: 'su root' ; echo $DISPLAY ; then wine notepad.exe
[07:47] <duron23> TornadoChas3r: check you disk free space
[07:47] <user> it's giving me an authentication failure, but i know my password is correct.... weird
[07:48] <shawn> do you fall asleep easily?
[07:48] <jerem> after solving a problem with floppy disk I get a purple screen with just mouse
[07:48] <smonsarr> sunit: if you are able to backup, then I would try to force a check disck
[07:48] <jerem> no keyboard
[07:48] <sta7ic> user: sudo passwd root
[07:48] <sta7ic> =p
[07:48] <user> updated successfully, thanks.
[07:49] <sazhen86> jerem, laptop or desktop?  Is it a USB keyboard?
[07:49] <user> returned "wine: created the configuration directory '/root/.wine'; Segmentation Fault
[07:49] <jerem> desktop, PS/2 keyboard
[07:49] <sazhen86> jerem, is the mouse also PS/2?
[07:49] <sunit> smonsarr : you wrote :  I would try to force a check disck-- - I could not understand. please clarify
[07:50] <Narcoleptic_Devi> update and upgrade successfull
[07:50] <shawn> wow pictbridge is slow
[07:51] <Narcoleptic_Devi> Cleo where you form
[07:51] <Narcoleptic_Devi> from
[07:51] <shawn> on my dell photo 944
[07:51] <Mike> Hi
[07:51]  * TornadoChas3r crosses fingers
[07:51] <Narcoleptic_Devi> hi mike
[07:51] <Ascavasaion> When I play Audio CDs it keeps hiccupping .... the hard disk LED is flashing... is Linux/VLC copying to hard disk and playing from there and then hiccupping when it gets bottlenecked/overloaded?
[07:51] <shawn> its acting very slow right now, it was faster earlier
[07:51] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: looks bad like kernel was updating halfway thru and was aborted
[07:51] <Narcoleptic_Devi> ....
[07:52] <Narcoleptic_Devi> yep
[07:52] <sta7ic> i dont know if there is a away to sync repository and force install all packages
[07:52] <Narcoleptic_Devi> thats the same thing i was thinkin
[07:52] <jerem> my mouse is a USB one
[07:52] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: seems like the proper apt-get force-sync command would help if you know someone really good with apt-get
[07:52] <smonsarr> when in the Live CD, open a terminal and do a fsck /dev/xxx, where xxx is the file-system to check, If Gpartrd could see youe hard-drive you can find out the correct name there, probably something like /dev/sda1, but depends on your hardware and how Ubuntu was installed.
[07:53] <sazhen86> jerem, try unplugging the mouse and plugging back it when you get to the purple screen
[07:53] <user> sta7ic: as su, continuing to get Segmentation fault....
[07:53] <Narcoleptic_Devi> new app for your mobile at http://wap.mxit.com
[07:53] <sta7ic> user: its not that... i just did 'apt-get install wine'
[07:53] <jerem> sazhen86 > ok I try it
[07:53] <user> incidently, does anyone know how to change the name of the box?
[07:54] <sta7ic> then did opened terminal as me and not root and did 'wine notepad.exe'
[07:54] <user> sta7ic: ok, i anxiously await the outcome. thank you.
[07:54] <sta7ic> and it worked
[07:54] <TornadoChas3r> FATAL: Could not open /lib/modules/2.6.32-27-generic-pae/modules.dep.temp for writing: No space left on device
[07:54] <thiefy> Ascavasaion, the data streaming from that cd to the hd is a very small amount compared to the speed of your hard drive. so i would say now. i bet the prob is your cd is in bad shape.
[07:54] <user> hmm
[07:54] <user> i will uninstall wine and reinstall and come back to you
[07:54] <sta7ic> user: it seems that some permssion thing or weird thing is going on with your user? is this the ubuntu desktop X windows?
[07:54] <user> yes
[07:54] <user> my box is named "user"
[07:55] <Ascavasaion> thiefy: It is an old machine... AMD Duron 1300MHz, 20Gb HDD with 384Mb RAM
[07:55] <user> this could be giving me problems?
[07:55] <sta7ic> user: try this, create a fresh user, reboot, login as that user and run 'wine notepad.exe'
[07:55] <user> ok good idea thanks
[07:55] <thiefy> Ascavasaion, that should be good enough.
[07:55] <shawn> hey how do i format agian
[07:55] <shawn> *again
[07:55] <sta7ic> shawn: fdisk and mkfs
[07:55] <sazhen86> jerem, no guarantees, but I've seen it work in the past
[07:56] <shawn> ah
[07:56] <jerem> sazhen86 > it don't change anything, same screen
[07:56] <TornadoChas3r> hmm weird
[07:56] <user> does anyone know if you can change the original name you gave your box?
[07:56] <TornadoChas3r> i just notcied something
[07:56] <sazhen86> jerem, keyboard still not working
[07:56] <TornadoChas3r> noticed*
[07:56] <jerem> sazhen86 > last message concern CUPS boot
[07:56] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: kernel error its like the update was half way through and aborted, what happens if you boot into an older kernel or recovery?
[07:56] <shawn> so mkfs.ext2 /dev/sdc2?
[07:56] <jerem> sazhen86, yes, no keyboard...
[07:56] <sta7ic> shawn: should work, make sure its the right device
[07:56] <Ascavasaion> thiefy: It does it with other hard disks as well.  Another thing... the CD played even when there was no audio cable connected between the CDROM and the sound card.
[07:56] <smonsarr> user: /etc/hostnme & /etc/hosts
[07:57] <user> thans smonsarr
[07:57] <TornadoChas3r> weird i cant write any files to the disk anymore, before i could make a text file
[07:57] <smonsarr> that's /etc/hostname
[07:57] <TornadoChas3r> now it returns no space on disk
[07:57] <smonsarr> and reboot
[07:57] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: kernel error its like the update was half way through and aborted, what happens if you boot into an older kernel or recovery?
[07:58] <thiefy> Ascavasaion, that audio cable is obsolete. you can rip it out and never plug it in. when the cdrom reads the music, it digitizes it so that cable was for analog audio which you don't need.
[07:58] <thiefy> Ascavasaion, does it do this will any cd you put in there?
[07:58] <sta7ic> also out of curiosity what does 'mount' show, read only?
[07:58] <sazhen86> jerem, is the purple screen and X11 screen?
[07:58] <sta7ic> im positive its not a space issue
[07:59] <Ascavasaion> thiefy: YEs.
[07:59] <TornadoChas3r>  /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 on / type ext4 (rw,errors=remount-ro,usrjquota=quota.user,grpjquota=quota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0)
[07:59] <sta7ic> yeah the cable going from MB to CDROM = worthless
[07:59] <jerem> sazhen86, it's same backgournd as login scree, but nothing inside exept arrow of mouse
[07:59] <jerem> sazhen86, and it's before installing anything
[08:00] <sazhen86> jerem, it's off the live cd?
[08:01] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: how about recovery or different kernel, i think that update jacked everyhing d0h
[08:01] <jerem> sazhen86, what do you mean by off live cd ?
[08:02] <TornadoChas3r> you hold the left shift to get into the recovery mode correct?
[08:02] <thiefy> Ascavasaion, could be that that cdrom drive is toast. try ripping the music to your hard ddrive and then playing some songs, see how they play then.
[08:02] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: http://askubuntu.com/questions/5133/how-to-recover-dpkg-from-corrupted-downloads
[08:02] <thiefy> TornadoChas3r, correct.
[08:02] <sta7ic> TornadoChas3r: have you trid that link yet?
[08:03] <sazhen86> jerem, did you boot the PC from a live CD and select the try ubuntu on this computer option?
[08:03] <TornadoChas3r> not yet, trying recovery mode atm
[08:03] <sta7ic> its not very helpful, grrr ill keep looking
[08:03] <jerem> sazhen86, oh no I select install Ubuntu
[08:03] <sta7ic> its the apt-get clean or something
[08:03] <jerem> sazhen86, so it's off live CD
[08:03] <thiefy> sazhen86, it's ok, you can cancel the install.
[08:04] <sta7ic> probably is, i think it may have corrupted system files, if thats the case, im not sure a recovery kernel will even help, but you can try
[08:04] <user> sta7ic: samep roblem with new "guest" account.
[08:04] <user> sta7ic: i think you're right, it's something to do with priviledges
[08:04] <user> for some reason it thinks wine is not owned by me
[08:04] <sta7ic> user: try loginng into X windows with root
[08:04] <user> how?
[08:05] <sta7ic> user: you may have to add your userid into /etc/group or something under wine, but try root first
[08:05] <sta7ic> hmm, logout?
[08:05] <sta7ic> what OS are you running
[08:05] <sta7ic> what distro, version
[08:05]  * Blue1 wishes for a donut operating system
[08:05] <user> the latest destop version
[08:06] <sazhen86> jerem, I'm running out of ideas, but can you check the legacy USB support option in the BIOS?  Sometimes disabling it helps PS/2 to work
[08:06] <jerem> yep, but I'm booting from USB
[08:06] <jerem> humm I tried to launch Ubuntu on live USB, and same problem occured
[08:07] <sazhen86> jerem, does the legacy USB support BIOS option prevent you from booting from USB?
[08:07] <sazhen86> jerem, also, to confirm that it's an X issue, does booting to text mode work?
[08:08] <jerem> sazhen86, how can I boot in text mode ?
[08:08] <tehbaut> is there a way to adjust/customize the snap-to threshold for window edge resizing and/or split panes of a window?
[08:08] <jerem> sazhen86, it's a great idea, I want to try it :-)
[08:08] <sta7ic> jerem: change the default runlevel init
[08:09] <sta7ic> user
[08:09] <user> back
[08:09] <user> sorry
[08:09] <ronware> Does anyone know how to get a 32bit app requiring 'libgstreamer' to work on a 64bit Ubuntu?   I get no crashes, but no sound either
[08:09] <sta7ic> try this...i just confirmed it worked for...user
[08:09] <sazhen86> jerem, or boot with the -s option
[08:09] <user> yes?
[08:09] <sirscrubsalot> are there powerpoint alternatives to openoffice impress that work pretty well? i've tried google's online presentation too but not so convinced if there's another alternative
[08:09] <sta7ic> 1.) open terminal
[08:10] <sta7ic> 2.) su - root
[08:10] <Ascavasaion> thiefy: thanks man, will do :)
[08:10] <jerem> ok I try it
[08:10] <sta7ic> 3. DISPLAY=:0.0;export DISPLAY
[08:10] <sta7ic> 4.) wine notepad.exe
[08:10] <jerem> it's running
[08:10] <user> returns "segmentation fault"
[08:10] <sta7ic> haha
[08:11] <jerem> nope
[08:11] <sta7ic> re install wine, or you system is jacked with user problems
[08:11] <jerem> after, the same screen apear
[08:11] <user> i only just installed ubuntu so it must need a reinstall
[08:11] <jerem> with mouse
[08:11] <jerem> and no keyboard
[08:11] <sazhen86> jerem, what did you change?
[08:11] <jerem> so it just skip the screen with orange dot
[08:12] <tehbaut> also... whenever I install something, I keep running into the following errors: Errors were encountered while processing: linux-image-2.6.35-22-generic linux-image-2.6.35-24-generic linux-image-generic linux-generic
[08:12] <tehbaut> anyone happen to have any idea why I keep getting these errors?
[08:12] <agris> hi there! on ubuntu 10.04 lts  server - what problems can there be for pptpd not to respond for lan connections? I mean, on test virtual pc, everything is ok, on production server - netstat says port 1723 is listening and it can be connected locally
[08:12] <agris> and from other lan stations - do not work
[08:12] <sta7ic> alright ya'll im out, work tomorrow morning
[08:12] <tehbaut> whatever I install still gets installed, so these errors aren't hindering that process... they're merely just an annoyance
[08:12] <puppy> why I cannot install vlc in Ubuntu through SC but showing package dependencies could not resolved
[08:12] <user> cheers sta7ic
[08:12] <user> l8r
[08:12] <sazhen86> jerem, can you try disabling legacy USB keyboard support in the BIOS?  If you can't boot, then you can always put it back
[08:12] <shawn> how late is it at your place sta7ic
[08:12] <earwigs> <3 ubuntu
[08:12] <jerem> I try it
[08:12] <sta7ic> l8r
[08:13] <tehbaut> no one knows?
[08:13] <puppy> why I cannot install vlc in Ubuntu through SC but showing package dependencies could not resolved
[08:13] <shawn> ok..
[08:13] <shawn> are my messages event getting through xchat?
[08:13] <shawn> it seems ubuntu is acting up
[08:13] <earwigs> because xchat hates u
[08:13] <thiefy> agris, on the router make sure to allow UDP to be pushed through port 1723  - not tcp
[08:14] <agris> thiefy, ok i'll try, thanks
[08:14]  * tehbaut is also using xchat... no hatin going on here
[08:14] <earwigs> smuxi is your new irc overlord
[08:14] <earwigs> covert or perish
[08:14] <tehbaut> just people who don't know the answer to my questions, or just too lazy to help out :P
[08:14] <jerem> sazhen86, nothing new disabling it
[08:14] <puppy> how to solve the problem with package dependecies
[08:15] <earwigs> tehbaut: no idea, only been using ubuntu for 2 weeks now, but loving it.
[08:15] <nikhilax> guys my problem is not yet solved. Please help somebody. I have no OS installed on my system and when i am running ubuntu live CD and checking gnome partition manager its not showing my harddisk showing just USB which is attached to my computer. Please help guys.
[08:15] <thiefy> earwigs, whats the big diff between that and xchat?
[08:15] <tehbaut> earwigs, really? welcome to the fun :D
[08:15] <earwigs> thiefy: i think smuxi is less user friendly.
[08:15] <Ascavasaion> I have an old computer here... No idea what is in it as it will not switch on at all.  the motherbaord has no identifying names/numbers but thee is one little orange/gold heatsink in the middle with T-Bird AMD-K7 on it.  How do I figure out who manufactured the motherboard and thus get a manual for it?
[08:15] <earwigs> thiefy: its more 'no frills' and lightweight
[08:15] <user> i'm getting werid stuff on apt-get now. when i type "sudo apt-get install wine" i get returned: "Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)"
[08:15] <nikhilax> guys my problem is not yet solved. Please help somebody. I have no OS installed on my system and when i am running ubuntu live CD and checking gnome partition manager its not showing my harddisk showing just USB which is attached to my computer. Please help guys.
[08:15] <puppy> why I cannot install vlc in Ubuntu through SC but showing package dependencies could not resolved
[08:16] <jerem> there is a bunch of messages, before but I can't figure if there is something critical inside
[08:16] <thiefy> nikhilax, make sure the data cable / power cable is still plugged into that hard drive.
[08:16] <Guest72926> fast mirror plugin for ubuntu server / no gui.. what is the process?
[08:16] <thiefy> earwigs, i thought xchat was no frills and light weight. least compared to mirc it is.
[08:16] <user> and "Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?"
[08:16] <earwigs> thiefy:  it may be, but pretty sure sumxi is more lightweight
[08:16] <nikhilax> thiefy: its my hard disk which is not showing up..
[08:16] <thiefy> user - yes. it is. close synaptic and / or the update manager.
[08:16] <earwigs> thiefy: install it through software center and find out
[08:17] <user> thanks thiefy
[08:17] <puppy> so I am leaving,why staying if nobody give a hand?
[08:17] <thiefy> earwigs, i think i'll have to try that then. i like nofrills and light weight.
[08:17] <tehbaut> so know one knows why, whenever I install something, I keep running into the following errors?: Errors were encountered while processing: linux-image-2.6.35-22-generic linux-image-2.6.35-24-generic linux-image-generic linux-generic
[08:17] <nikhilax> thiefy: when i run gparted live CD it shows my harddisk unallocated and i allocate it as fat32 half and rest half as ext2,3,4
[08:17] <nikhilax> still not showing in ubuntu
[08:18] <nikhilax> whats the prioblem i am not able to install ubuntu please help
[08:18] <earwigs> thiefy: "Smuxi is an irssi-inspired, flexible, user-friendly and cross-platform IRC client for sophisticated users, targeting the GNOME desktop." - http://www.smuxi.org/page/About
[08:18] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: Can you pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l"?
[08:18] <nikhilax> sure
[08:18] <thiefy> earwigs, yeah, imm looking at the screen shots page there.
[08:18] <sazhen86> jerem, try adding -s to the boot options in grub
[08:19] <awk> Hi, hmm deb http://uk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid main restricted what is the name of the new release so I can update to it ? I must replace lucid with  ?
[08:19] <earwigs> thiefy: im a bit of a noob with it, but it looks like theres a lot you can do with it if you're a bit of a techy
[08:19] <jerem> sazhen86, in grub ? but I'm using usb key, only this system on it
[08:19] <TornadoChas3r> well ill give this a shot another time i gtg
[08:19] <TornadoChas3r> good night
[08:19] <nikhilax> jordan_U: i can pastebin that as i am on another laptop and that laptop is not connected to internet.. though output is..
[08:21] <nikhilax> sure-
[08:21] <tehbaut> is there a way to adjust/customize the snap-to threshold for window edge resizing and/or split panes of a window?
[08:21] <awk> neer mind got iperl -p -i.lucid -e 's/lucid/maverick/' /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:21] <nikhilax> jordan_U: parted : invalid option --l then some copyright
[08:22] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: "sudo parted -l" not "sudo parted --l".
[08:22] <Laggg> Help plz. Ubuntu10.10 no internt after rebooting, surely a dns problem. What dns should I enter and where?
[08:22] <nikhilax> jordan_U : i did that only
[08:22] <Laggg> I need help confoguring my networrrk
[08:23] <gobbe> Laggg: are you using dhcp?
[08:23] <Laggg> Yes
[08:23] <thiefy> tehbaut, yes. i think you will find your answer on this page:   http://www.clip.dia.fi.upm.es/~cochoa/wiki/index.php/Compiz
[08:23] <nikhilax> jordan_U: using /dev/sdb/ (parted)
[08:23] <gobbe> Laggg: your dhcp server should give dns-servers automatically
[08:23] <sazhen86> jerem, I've only ever used CDs.  Do you get a boot menu?
[08:23] <thiefy> Laggg, use <IP_ADDRESS>   it is opendns
[08:23] <gobbe> Laggg: if not, use ones that are from your operator or some public available, like <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:24] <nikhilax> jordan_U: help friend
[08:24] <Laggg> Should I choose manual?
[08:24] <thiefy> gobbe that is good if you want google logging every dns request you do.
[08:24] <tehbaut> thiefy, gotcha thanks!
[08:24] <thiefy> Laggg,  i do use manual.
[08:24] <Laggg> Or dhcp addresses only?
[08:24] <nikhilax> gobbe: need you support again
[08:24] <jerem> yes I had the boot menu
[08:24] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: "-l" is a valid option. Are you sure that you typed exactly "sudo parted -l", nothing more and nothing less?
[08:24] <jerem> sazhen86, I tryed several options <F6>
[08:24] <EvilPhoenix> Laggg:  use "DHCP addresses only" or w/e it is, not manual.
[08:25] <jerem> sazhen86 but nothing new
[08:25] <kachingo> hi, my volume control applet is the incorrect colour and appearance. I just reinstalled pulseaudio but the applet has remained the same appearance as with alsa. Does anyone know how to get the correct volume control applet working?
[08:25] <jerem> sahen86, I'm searching forums but I can't find something similar
[08:25] <thiefy> kachingo   the command volume-control-applet  will run it
[08:25] <purvesh> how do i know my remote server ip address on ubuntu 10.10
[08:25] <nikhilax> jordan_U: yes . sudo parted  -l
[08:26] <sazhen86> jerem, try this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=186689
[08:26] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: What version of Ubuntu?
[08:26] <nikhilax> 6.06 :P
[08:26] <kachingo> thiefy: I get "volume-control-applet: command not found"
[08:26] <thiefy> 6.06? holy that is old.
[08:26] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: Why are you using 6.06?
[08:26] <mayank> hi can anyone help me i want to connect my laptop with another laptop having windows seven i m having ubuntu
[08:26] <tehbaut> would it be a bad thing to remove a sata drive while ubuntu is still running?
[08:26] <EvilPhoenix> !6.06
[08:26] <Jordan_U> tehbaut: Yes.
[08:27] <EvilPhoenix> heh its still technically viable
[08:27] <Laggg> Its still not working, thiefy. EvilPheonix
[08:27] <nikhilax> coz i dont have ubuntu 10.10 available right now its in my harddisk of crashed computer
[08:27] <earwigs> may
[08:27] <nikhilax> jordan_U
[08:27] <tehbaut> Jordan_U, what could/would happen?
[08:27] <KM0201> nikhilax: did you get your partition table figured out?
[08:27] <thiefy> kachingo, sorry. it's this:  gnome-volume-control-applet
[08:28] <earwigs> mayank: just set up the windows box sharing options and ubuntu should just detect it via the networking folder and work
[08:28] <thiefy> Laggg, why do you feel you need to screw with dns servers?
[08:28] <nikhilax> KM0201: No...  :( now i dont want that i just want to install ubuntun again
[08:28] <Laggg> Thays what fixed the problem on win7
[08:28] <nikhilax> Km0201 : can u help
[08:28] <yuler> wanted: script help.  See http://pastebin.com/NmT9GBBp
[08:28] <Laggg> I thought it'd be the same with ubuntu
[08:28] <KM0201> nikhilax: help you reinstall ubuntu?.. yeah,... what do you need help with?
[08:28] <earwigs> mayank: ive been able to connect to my vista machine and external networked HDD without any need for manual installations of stuff
[08:29] <thiefy> Laggg, i would use a static ip. there is no need for DHCP on a home computer.
[08:29] <gobbe> thiefy: yes, like i told him to use operators one or something else
[08:29] <kachingo> theify: excellent, it works! I assume I need to add that to the startup applications to start each time?
[08:29] <nikhilax> km0201:coz when i am running ubuntu live USB its doest shows up my hard disk
[08:29] <gobbe> thiefy: i don't care if google sees my dns queries :)
[08:29] <nikhilax> km0201: some thing went wrong
[08:29] <gobbe> nikhilax: what kind of problem
[08:29] <thiefy> Laggg, in the terminal type ifconfig  tell me your internal ip address.
[08:29] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: Ok. What options do you have for bootable media? Do you still have any type of install (whether detected by gparted or not) on the hard drive or have you reformatted over it?
[08:30] <nikhilax> gobbe, my hard disk not showing up
[08:30] <KM0201> nikhilax: what do you mean it "doesn't see your hard drive"... iirc, it doesnt have any partitions on it, so thats not entirely surprising
[08:30] <thiefy> kachingo, that is what i had to do. go to system - preferences and then start up apps. add a new one in there for that command.
[08:30] <gobbe> nikhilax: what is your sata-controllers model and make?
[08:30] <Laggg> thiefy: inet addr:?
[08:30] <nikhilax> gobbe, i am not sure. how to check?
[08:30] <thiefy> gobbe, i feel google knows enough on me. they don't need to log every site i visit.
[08:30] <thiefy> Laggg, not your inet one, your 192 one.
[08:31] <thiefy> Laggg, do you have a router that you are connected to?
[08:31] <gobbe> thiefy: yep. but to be honest, i use something else, but for testing purpose it's ok to use something that is easy to rememer, like googles ;)
[08:31] <thiefy> nikhilax, reboot that computer. does the bios even see that hard drive?    if it doesn't that is bad news.
[08:31] <Laggg> Nope, just the modem
[08:31] <nikhilax> Jordan_U : No OS installed when i checked with live gparted its showng my complete Harddisk as unallocated coz my partiton tables got damages so i allocated it agaain
[08:31] <Laggg> I don't see a 192 address
[08:31] <thiefy> gobbe, yeah, i just memorized open dns's ....
[08:32] <thiefy> Laggg, no prob. you dont have a 192 address....
[08:32] <nikhilax> thiefy: yes Bios showing up
[08:32] <jerem> sazhen86, well I don't see anything, may be give up for the moment, thank you a lot to tried that with me
[08:32] <gobbe> thiefy: i should too, but my brains have limited capacity, old model you know ;)
[08:32] <bullgard4> Update Manager this morning reported: "Package lists are being loaded." What are the filenames of these lists?
[08:32] <sazhen86> jerem, also see Bug #106289 on launchpad
[08:32] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: Is there any data that you would like to recover if it were possible?
[08:32] <gobbe> nikhilax: so you created new partition table?
[08:32] <nikhilax> Jordon_U no
[08:32] <gobbe> nikhilax: i dont get it what you mean that it's not showing up.
[08:32] <nikhilax> Gobbe: yes i did through gparted
[08:32] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: Ok, and what options do you have for bootable media?
[08:33] <gobbe> nikhilax: and you are not able to install there?
[08:33] <gobbe> nikhilax: or?
[08:33] <nikhilax> jordan_U: options as in?
[08:33] <thiefy> nikhilax, if you type sudo fdisk -l    do you not see it in there? pastebin us what you see when you do that command.
[08:33] <nikhilax> gobbe: no am not able to install
[08:33] <Laggg> thiefy: would it be <IP_ADDRESS>?
[08:33] <gobbe> nikhilax: like i asked you yesterday to do sudo fdisk -l
[08:33] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: You have at least Ubuntu 6.06 and some version of a GParted LiveCD. What else do you have?
[08:33] <gobbe> nikhilax: and that's what thiefy also asked now
[08:33] <thiefy> Laggg, it might. try in the terminal typing ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:34] <nikhilax> thiefy: fdisk shwing only my USB pendrive attached
[08:34] <thiefy> show us!!!!!!!!!
[08:34] <gobbe> nikhilax: run the command
[08:34] <Laggg> Command not found
[08:34] <nikhilax> Jordan_U , i have puppy linux thats it
[08:34] <sazhen86> jerem, last option is to try booting with acpi disabled if you haven't tried it
[08:34] <earwigs> im so glad i never had all these issues when i installed ubuntu
[08:35] <jerem> sazhen86, must try  something more...
[08:35] <thiefy> nikhilax, ok, in the terminal type blkid   what you see then?
[08:35] <Guest44546> Does anyone know of any circuit analysis software that has a spectrum analyzer in it for ubuntu?
[08:35] <nikhilax> gobbe: fdisk showing only my Live usb attached
[08:35] <earwigs> only issue i had when installing is learning that i had a FAKE raid, and not a real one
[08:35] <gobbe> nikhilax: please, do what you are asked to do
[08:35] <sazhen86> jerem, sorry we couldn't work it out.  Good luck!  I'm sure you'll sort it out even if you have to borrow a USB keyboard
[08:35] <gobbe> nikhilax: we cannot help wihtout that
[08:36] <jd-> !md5sum
[08:36] <jerem> sazhen86, yes I think so too
[08:36] <nikhilax> thiefy: /dev/sdb1: UUID="7E31-6d41" type="vfat"
[08:36] <thiefy> nikhilax, but not sda  shows up eh?
[08:36] <earwigs> Installed the Cario dock the other day, was dissapointed :( looks so pretty, takes so long.
[08:36] <nikhilax> thiefy, no
[08:36] <thiefy> nikhilax, how many physical hard drives do you hae in that pruter?
[08:36] <Laggg> thiefy: network is unreachable
[08:36] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: How recent is the GParted LiveCD?
[08:36] <nikhilax> gobbe: please tell what u want me to do i am ready
[08:37] <thiefy> Laggg, try ping <IP_ADDRESS>   and ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:37] <gobbe> nikhilax: sudo fdisk -l and sudo lshw, put paste to psatebin

[08:37] <nikhilax> gobbe, i am not connected to internet on that computer am on another laptop
[08:37] <thiefy> mayank, in the software center thing or synaptic you will wnat to install samba
[08:37] <mayank> ohk
[08:37] <Laggg> thiefy, all same, unreachable
[08:38] <mayank> den
[08:38] <nikhilax> gobbe , i  can type over here
[08:38] <earwigs> mayank: just set up the shared folders on your windows box as per normal, and ubuntu will display them in your network folder
[08:38] <earwigs> mayank: assuming you're setup through a router with automatic DNS settings.
[08:38] <gobbe> nikhilax: well, there's quite lots of output
[08:38] <gobbe> nikhilax: and i want it all
[08:38] <thiefy> nikhilax, open up the computer, but your hand on the hard drive. do you feel it spinning and vibrating even?
[08:38] <gobbe> nikhilax: save them to local file, move with usb-stick or something
[08:38] <Laggg> ifconfig does show a lit of numbers though
[08:38] <mayank> i have to trasfer data from my ubuntu laptop to windows seven how to do it
[08:39] <thiefy> Laggg, put those into pastebin so i can see them.
[08:39] <earwigs> mayank: already explained this to you
[08:39] <thiefy> mayank, in the software center thing or synaptic you will wnat to install samba
[08:39] <thiefy> haha
[08:39] <mayank> ohk i m installing it
[08:39] <earwigs> thiefy: isnt samba installed as the standard package?
[08:39] <nikhilax> thiefy, can think its possible for me to open up my laptop .. but gparted live shows up my 298GB hard disk thats complete
[08:40] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: How recent is the GParted LiveCD?
[08:40] <nikhilax> gobbe, ya its quiet lots of output
[08:40] <nikhilax> gobbe :(
[08:40] <thiefy> earwigs, maybe, i'm not sure for this version.
[08:40] <earwigs> thiefy: i never had to install samba, my network folder simply showed the shared systems
[08:40] <nikhilax> jordan_U , its latest
[08:40] <thiefy> ooh, that is easier then earwigs
[08:40] <roberto_> HI, I get a lot of segmentation faults with almost every program, can anyone help me please?
[08:40] <nikhilax> gobbe: ok doing that
[08:40] <roberto_> I'm on ubuntu 10.10
[08:40] <mayank> ohk i installed samba what now?
[08:40] <cryptodira> is there a FAQ somewhere that discusses setting up the microphone on a toshiba satellite amd/64 with 10.04 ??  onboard speakers and earphones work just fine....
[08:40] <Laggg> thiefy: http://pastie.org/1455495
[08:40] <yuler> !samba | mayank:
[08:41] <jerem> sazhen86, I found an adapter for ps/2->usb
[08:41] <duron23> does anyone know how to make evolution to work with exchange 2007 ?
[08:41] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: Good. Have you tried connecting to the internet with the GParted LiveCD? It's much more likely to support your wireless card than Ubuntu 6.06 (and then you can use pastebin).
[08:41] <jerem> sazhen86, it don't solve my problem
[08:41] <Guest44546> Does anyone know of any circuit analysis software that has a spectrum analyzer in it for ubuntu?
[08:41] <mayank> yeah i installed samba now what the next step
[08:41] <sazhen86> jerem, now that is odd
[08:41] <nikhilax> Jordan_U can we connect to internet through GParted live.. their is no browser i think
[08:42] <jerem> sazhen86, at least it's not keyboard problem
[08:42] <thiefy> Laggg, is that modem one of those stupid modem/router combo devices?
[08:43] <sazhen86> jerem. it doesn't look like it.
[08:43] <Laggg> nope, just a modem
[08:43] <boot> is there is any way i can see which application is using internet?
[08:43] <Laggg> and it was working fine earlier on here
[08:43] <nikhilax> jordan_U, what can i do?
[08:43] <Laggg> I just shut down the pc and booted back up after a while
[08:43] <cdbs> quit
[08:43] <Laggg> it wasnt working on Win7 either, but I changed the DNS and that fixed it
[08:43] <sazhen86> jerem, does the purple screen display anything or is just blank and purple?
[08:43] <cdbs> err, sorry for that
[08:43] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: Do you have a USB drive?
[08:43] <nikhilax> yes i have
[08:43] <thiefy> Laggg, do you see a lil network icon by your clock?
[08:44] <Laggg> Yes.
[08:44] <nikhilax> jordan_u , yes i have
[08:44] <Laggg> But it is disconnected
[08:44] <jerem> sazhen86: it's purple screen, like login screen, but with nothing than white mouse cursor on it
[08:44] <dsdeiz> when installing how do you guys usually set it up? :/ one partition for /, another for /home, and another for /boot ? :D
[08:44] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: Can you use your working computer to create an Ubuntu 10.10 LiveUSB?
[08:44] <thiefy> right click on it, go to edit connections. under wired (i'm assuming you aren't using wireless.)  click on auto eth0  and then click on the edit button.
[08:44] <thiefy> Laggg, that was to you.
[08:45] <Laggg> ok.
[08:45] <Laggg> Im there.
[08:45] <llutz_> dsdeiz: /boot only if you really need it
[08:45] <yuler> mayank: share folders on Windows, browse in Ubuntu from Places > network
[08:45] <Jordan_U> dsdeiz: Unless you have an explicit reason to do otherwise, it's simplest to keep everything (except maybe swap) in one partition.
[08:45] <sazhen86> jerem, can you get to a console by pressing alt-f1?
[08:45] <nikhilax> Jordan_U i can do that but problem will not solve a s its not showing up my hardsk
[08:45] <sazhen86> jerem, I think that's the right keys
[08:45] <bullgard4> Update Manager this morning reported: "Package lists are being loaded." What are the filenames of these lists?
[08:45] <Laggg> thiefy: I'm there.
[08:45] <dsdeiz> oh ok. cool. thanks!
 some application is using internet
[08:46] <thiefy> Laggg, go to the ipv4 settings tab.  if you set it to manual - not automatci dhcp, then you can edit down below where it says dns servers. in there type <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:46] <thiefy> Laggg, and see if now it'lll work good for you.
[08:46] <boot> i want to know which application is using internet and what file it is downloading
[08:46] <boot> ?
[08:46] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: But it will probably allow you to connect to the internet, and there is no sense in installing Ubuntu 6.06 so you'll probably want a 10.10 LiveCD/USB anyway.
[08:46] <thiefy> boot, netstat -abn
[08:46] <jerem> sazhen86, nope, exactly like I have no keyboard
[08:46] <exeForce> Äîáðîãî âðåìåíè ñóòîê. À ìîæíî òàê íà áóäóùåå ñïðîñèòü, òóò íà ðóññêîì ëþäè îáùàþòñÿ?
[08:46] <llutz_> boot: /boot refers to a directory, not to you :)
[08:47] <nikhilax> jordan_U, Yes you are right .
[08:47] <thiefy> jerem, maybe someone relplaced your keyboard with a photo of your old keyboard.
[08:47] <nikhilax> Jordan_U , i am doing that. downloading 10.10 it will take 3-4 hrs
[08:47] <thiefy> !netstat boot
[08:47] <sazhen86> jerem, in that case, can we add -s to the boot command line to boot up in a console?
[08:47] <boot> thiefy: it is not showing the full location of file
[08:48] <nikhilax> jordan_U why this problem is occuring any guesses?
[08:48] <jerem> sazhen86, haha ! yes something like that !
[08:48] <thiefy> then type locate filename
[08:48] <sazhen86> jerem, hit F6 at the boot menu, then ESC and add -s to the end of the line
[08:48] <dsdeiz> what's the recommended size for a swap partition?
[08:48] <Laggg> thiefy: it wont let me click apply
[08:48] <boot> i want some software like sniffing
[08:48] <thiefy> Laggg,  crap. i was afraid of that.
[08:48] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: My guess is that your partition table is somehow invalid, the most common problem is overlapping partitions.
[08:48] <scriptwarlock> bullgard4 see your update history in ubuntu software center
[08:48] <Laggg> Addresses is blank but DNS has that thing 208. in it
[08:48] <Sengoku> Hey, when i try to fullscreen youtube, crashses my flashplugin
[08:48] <scriptwarlock> bullgard4, see your update history in ubuntu software center
[08:49] <jerem> sazhen86, I already test it, it skip first part and I have a black screen with all logs, but after I land on this awfull purple screen
[08:49] <KM0201> Jordan_U: thats quite possible, he had a mess w/ partitions/lost data earlier that he was tryign tof igure out.. no telling what he's done while tryign to fix it
[08:49] <thiefy> Laggg, put it back to auto dhcp mode then and close that window.
[08:49] <sazhen86> jerem, even with -s?
[08:49] <schultza> Do you guys know if freespire is still around?
[08:49] <Laggg> ok
[08:49] <jerem> sazhen86, yes
[08:49] <nikhilax> Jordan_U, oh ya may be.. SHould i make it again usning gparted? coz my data is not imp. so i think its not a problem playing  with partitions
[08:49] <nikhilax> ?
[08:49] <jerem> sazhen86, humm may be there is a more verbose mode ?
[08:49] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: Since you're presumeably going to allow the Ubuntu installer to repartition the drive anyay, and you have no data worth keeping, I wouldn't really worry about it as long as it doesn't prevent you from installing.
[08:50] <Laggg> ok thiefy, now what? :P
[08:50] <llutz_> dsdeiz: are you going to use hibernation? if yes, swap has to be 1.5xRAM, else 1GB would be fine
[08:50] <thiefy> Laggg, i think this'll work for you. type gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf   and then in there it should say nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:50] <duron23> anyone with evolution and exchange 2007 ?
[08:50] <Laggg> what are these numbers in my ifconfig output? Maybe I should try using some of those?
[08:50] <thiefy> duron23, yes. it works. (crappily)
[08:51] <sazhen86> jerem, here's the Ubuntu page on boot options https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOpti
[08:51] <duron23> thiefy: how ?
[08:51] <duron23> thiefy: mapi ?
[08:51] <Laggg> thiefy, it has a different address
[08:51] <nikhilax> Jordan_U when its not showing up the drive so how it can  repartition?
[08:51] <thiefy> Laggg, duron23 i had to use imap with mine.
[08:51] <Laggg> <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:52] <yuler> Anyone know what tools can do this?   http://pastebin.com/NmT9GBBp
[08:52] <thiefy> Laggg, oooh, that is annoying. ok, leave that in there. but move it down a line or two and add what i said as the first one.
[08:52] <duron23> thiefy: calendar works ?
[08:52] <tevoda> Anyone here well versed in mail utils?
[08:52] <thiefy> duron23, nope.
[08:52] <duron23> hmm
[08:52] <Laggg> should I type namserver before the address I put in?
[08:53] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: Do I understand correctly that Ubuntu 6.06 isn't showing the drive at all, and the GParted LiveCD is showing the drive (but showing it as all unallocated space)?
[08:53] <thiefy> duron23, i can send and receive mail, but i don't nthink it syncs properly. like if  i look at the web way of seeing my mail, i think that my sent items do not show me the things i sent from evolution to people.
[08:53] <tevoda> hi Does mailutils 2.1 work with Maildir? I tried all the options I could find via google and everytime I type mail, I still get no mail. Yet all other mail "clients" don't have this problem.
[08:53] <schultza> yuler, you may have to find or make a 'parser' program for that.
[08:53] <thiefy> Laggg, yes.
[08:53] <roberto_> HI, I get several segmentation faults, can anyone help me please?
[08:53] <sazhen86> jerem, Sorry, but I have to go to work now :-(  Good luck.  I'm sure there are other people here who can help
[08:53] <Laggg> thiefy, save it?
[08:53] <duron23> thiefy: did you try mapi ?
[08:53] <nikhilax> Jordan_U, yes exactly but some time back i allocated all the disk space as half of it as FAT32 and some as ext2, 3, 4
[08:54] <duron23> thiefy: http://jjesse.wordpress.com/2010/05/21/configure-evolution-to-to-access-ms-exchange-2007/
[08:54] <nikhilax> Jodan_U , i also created partition table by usng the option in gparted to created partition tables
[08:54] <Rust3d> +i
[08:54] <Rust3d> Hi
[08:54] <jerem> sazhen86, thank you for your help :-)
[08:55] <Rust3d> HI
[08:55] <thiefy> Laggg, yeah, it should look like this:   http://pastie.org/1455525
[08:55] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: Ubuntu 6.06 is old, and the hardware support wasn't great even at the time it was released so I'm not surprised that it didn't detect your hard drive.
[08:55] <tevoda> hi Does mailutils 2.1 work with Maildir? I tried all the options I could find via google and everytime I type mail, I still get no mail. Yet all other mail "clients" don't have this problem.

[08:55] <FloodBot4> Rust3d: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:55] <Laggg> Alright.
[08:55] <thiefy> duron23, no i didn't. should i?
[08:55] <Laggg> And that should fix it, thiefy?
[08:55] <thiefy> Laggg, i hope so.
[08:55] <nikhilax> Jordan_U , even puppy linux not showing up.. anyways i am downloading 10.10
[08:55] <duron23> thiefy: not sure, actually it for my friend, he is new to ubuntu, he is cannada
[08:55] <jayne> I thought backtrack was off-topic here?
[08:56] <gobbe> it is
[08:56] <sazhen86> jerem, my pleasure
[08:56] <llutz_> jayne: it is
[08:56] <dsdeiz> that's weird, when i try to partition like 150GB and 147GB, why does the remaining 3GB become unusable? :/
[08:56] <KM0201> jayne: well, flooding isn't allowed either, it sure didn't stop him though.. :)
[08:56] <scriptwarlock> bullgard4, what is your concern again?
[08:56] <duron23> thiefy: *he is in canada
[08:56] <thiefy> duron23,  i'm up there too. hmm, maybe i'll try that if it should work.
[08:56] <tevoda> hi Does mailutils 2.1 work with Maildir? I tried all the options I could find via google and everytime I type mail, I still get no mail. Yet all other mail "clients" don't have this problem.
[08:56] <dsdeiz> 150gb -> 147gb + 3gb.. the 3gb becomes unusuable
[08:56] <yuler> schultza:  current efforts are directed at Bash and Python, but used neither.  :)
[08:56] <thiefy> duron23, maybe i know him then. we are all friendly here...
[08:56] <jayne> KM0201: I was trying to evaluate whether it was an accident, or intentional disruption
[08:56] <duron23> thiefy: plz let me know then
[08:56] <duron23> thiefy: :) he is from india,
[08:57] <KM0201> jayne: evaluation complete:  he was a troll
[08:57] <boaz> identify boazr shibug
[08:57] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: I expect that Ubuntu 10.10, like the GParted LiveCD, will see the drive as existing and being all unnallocated space. Then you can choose the option to automatically partition using the whole drive and it will work fine.
[08:57] <KM0201> :)
[08:57] <thiefy> oooh.
[08:57] <bullgard4> scriptwarlock: "[09:48]	<scriptwarlock>	bullgard4 see your update history in ubuntu software center"
[08:57] <schultza> yuler: it doesn't matter what scripting language it is written in, the word you are looking for is a parser.
[08:57] <tevoda> hi Does mailutils 2.1 work with Maildir? I tried all the options I could find via google and everytime I type mail, I still get no mail. Yet all other mail "clients" don't have this problem.
[08:58] <thiefy> nikhilax, you don't need ubuntu 6.06 or gparted live cd to do this. you need only a 10.10 live cd. (it comes with gparted installed)
[08:58] <nikhilax> Jordan_U , should i make my disk unallocated again or should i make a new partition? which one FAT 32? NTFS? ext 2, 3, 4?
[08:58] <Laggg> thiefy, it didn't work
[08:58] <nikhilax> thiefy, thanks..
[08:58] <thiefy> Laggg, reset the modem and then after it boots, type in sudo ifconfig eth0 down    and then in about 7 seconds do sudo ifconfig etho up
[08:58] <Jordan_U> nikhilax: Just let the Ubuntu installer do the partitioning. It doesn't really matter what you start with if you tell the installer to use the entire disk however it wants.
[08:59] <Laggg> ok
[08:59] <thiefy> nikhilax, to answer your question, choose ext4
[08:59] <nikhilax> Ok...if the disk is unallocated ubuntu patition will manage?
