[17:55] <SteveThing> can someone help me track down why a program tries to start on boot-up and how to remove it?
[17:56] <ysk> and how to reinstall it
[17:56] <JohnHeikkila> SteveThing: System-->Administration-->Startup Applications
[17:56] <ysk> with advanced plugins?
[17:56] <SteveThing> JohnHeikkila, Tried that, it isn't there.
[17:56] <trojan_spike> SteveThing, what programme is it?
[17:56] <JohnHeikkila> ysk: "sudo apt-get install compiz compiz-fusion"

[17:57] <ysk> and second thing my mic is npot working properly its working on winxp but not on ubuntu
[17:57] <JohnHeikkila> trojan_spike: you should try "MediaTomb" . Your PS3 will detect it when you start MediaTomb
[17:57] <JohnHeikkila> ysk: Is it an USB mic?
[17:57] <trojan_spike> uve check 'start up applications' i take it?
[17:57] <a5h15h> My external hard disk is not getting detected..how to fix this?
[17:57] <tonsofpcs> a5h15h: plug it in.
[17:57] <ysk> actually its builtin mic i am using lenove ideapad its a 10 inch mini laptop
[17:57] <JohnHeikkila> trojan_spike: He already tried it

[17:59] <suraj> hey guys how to add workspaces in 3D ???
[17:59] <ysk> i cant see the icon
[17:59] <thenthenio> Hello, on ubuntu server 8.04 how to run the setup script (the one that lets you choose which servers to install) from prompt?
[17:59] <Ken8521> Stevethepirate, sys/pref/start up programs.. uncheck it.
[18:00] <SteveThing> Ken8521, Again, it is NOT in the startup applications..
[18:00] <JohnHeikkila> ysk: Really? Hmm. Run "gnome-volume-control"
[18:00] <juk_> !server | thenthenio
[18:00] <ysk> i got it
[18:00] <JohnHeikkila> ysk: Good. Then click the input tab and turn the input volume on
[18:00] <Braber01> um hi
[18:01] <JohnHeikkila> !hi | Braber01
[18:01] <JohnHeikkila> righht.
[18:01] <Ken8521> Stevethepirate, what is it you're trying to keep froms tarting
[18:01] <JohnHeikkila> Hello Braber01!
[18:01] <ysk> it was on but was low now i did the high
[18:01] <SteveThing> Playstation Media Server (pms-linux)
[18:01] <madsy> In the Ubuntu Software Center is Lucid, the "popularity" bar is gone. Is there a way to get it back?
[18:01] <ysk> let me check whether its working or not
[18:01] <Ken8521> SteveThing,
[18:01] <Ken8521> see above
[18:01] <JohnHeikkila> ysk: Okay
[18:01] <a5h15h> My external hard disk is not getting detected..how to fix this?
[18:01] <madsy> I mean the stars that were displayed after each program in the previous versions.
[18:02] <SteveThing> Ken8521, Playstation Media Server (pms-linux)
[18:02] <Braber01> recently I changed from the GUI login to the Text-based login, and now I'm getting a message that I need to check My BIOS is this normal and how do i do it?
[18:02] <thenthenio> juk_: tkx
[18:02] <JohnHeikkila> Braber01: When you boot, the first screen you get should be a BIOS screen. Press F2, F9 or some key like that (it should say which) to get to the BIOS menu
[18:02] <ysk> john its like to much noise
[18:02] <ysk> like pissssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[18:03] <JohnHeikkila> ysk: Yep, you should put the input to about halfway
[18:03] <ysk> i recorded and that is result
[18:03] <juk_> !thanks | thenthenio
[18:03] <ysk> in xp its perfect
[18:03] <chadi> how can I change the systemwide proxy settings through the terminal? the GUI way does nto work
[18:03] <VCoolio> a5h15h: if you do 'sudp fdisk -l' (small L at the end), does it show in the terminal?
[18:03] <Braber01> thank you, how ever it also gave me a command that I should run to check the bios as well
[18:03] <a5h15h> VCoolio, no
[18:04] <JohnHeikkila> ysk: Press also the radio button in the input tab to select the hardware to use for the mic, then you should see "connector" and try the microphones
[18:04] <Sjeban> ok, i'm back now
[18:04] <VCoolio> then it's a hardware thing; usb ok? cable ok? drive itself ok?
[18:05] <Johanness> a5h15h: a5h15h: does lsusb show somthing like the device?
[18:05] <Somelauw> Does someone know a way to get some sort of eventviewer of my wifi-card?
[18:06] <ysk> i cant see the radio option
[18:06] <ysk> but i saw the hardware and i se;lected input driver
[18:06] <a5h15h> Johanness, what is lsusb?
[18:06] <ysk> and now there is no recording
[18:06] <astier> a5h15h: a program
[18:06] <Johanness> a5h15h: a command from the cli
[18:07] <JohnHeikkila> a5h15h: It means open console and do "lsusb"
[18:07] <juk_> why I dont have THRM in /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/ since i migrated from laptop to pc
[18:08] <ysk> john the voice i recorded but when i play it it feels like signals are not coming dat sort of noise souund
[18:08] <Zolomon> How can I enable swedish characters on ubuntu? I've used dpkg-reconfigure locales and it set LANG to se_SV.UTF-8 but I still can't use 'em in any application. In ubuntu they render like: ????, ???? and ????.
[18:08] <JohnHeikkila> juk_: Maybe your PC doesn't support THRM
[18:09] <juk_> !locale | Zolomon
[18:09] <JohnHeikkila> ysk: Try the "Connectors"
[18:09] <juk_> !language | Zolomon
[18:09] <juk_> sorry
[18:09] <a5h15h> Johanness, it doesnt show up
[18:09] <Zolomon> (What was wrong with my language?)
[18:10] <JohnHeikkila> ysk: Press the Hardware tab and then select the "hardware" and select Analog Stereo Duplex
[18:10] <juk_> Zolomon: it's in Administration > Language
[18:10] <juk_> Zolomon: i said sorry
[18:10] <mbroeker> try se_SE.utf8 or se_SV.utf8
[18:10] <ysk> it is selected
[18:10] <Zolomon> Oh, sorry juk_ :)
[18:10] <Johanness> a5h15h: the me to think it's harware problem, change cable or so.

[18:10] <jcrawford> BluesKaj, hey do you have a website?  I wrote up a post on my site about the Bose Speakers and mentioned you as a great help, would like to link to your site etc.
[18:11] <ysk> thanks bro
[18:11] <mccrase90> i love dick
[18:11] <JohnHeikkila> !language mccrase90
[18:11] <chadi> please help me reset my proxy settings in gnome-network-properties :(
[18:12] <istevenmon> wow nice, long time ive not been here
[18:12] <jcrawford> mccrase90, get a life, no one cares how much you like it
[18:12] <JohnHeikkila> !language > mccrase90
[18:12] <juk_> Zolomon: it's in Administration > Language Support, tricky thing is you have to drag the language to upest after intallation and aply system wide
[18:12] <st__> what's wrong with these people?
[18:12] <etyrnal> mccrase90, install it
[18:12] <jcrawford> chadi, what issue are you having?
[18:12] <SteveThing> Can someone help me figure why netstat -anp shows port 5001 is listening by process java at bootup? the application is not set to start at boot
[18:12] <jcrawford> lol etyrnal sudo apt-get install d*ck
[18:12] <Pici> Don't feed the trolls.
[18:12] <istevenmon> hi guys, how is the best way to know if i have lost connectivity to the internet? i need something to monitor 24/7 or if the link has gone down
[18:13] <BluesKaj> jcrawford, no , my website is strictly family stuff, there's no linux support links there .
[18:13] <SteveThing> well, the application I am having trouble with isn't set to start up at boot
[18:13] <jcrawford> BluesKaj, ok well i referenced ya by nickname and mentioned the channel :)
[18:13] <juk_> @jcrawford: thanks for laugh
[18:13] <st__> istevenmon, try pingig google and analyze exit code
[18:13] <BluesKaj> jcrawford, that's the best way :)
[18:13] <chadi> jcrawford, I have cntlm that I use for authentication in my university, so I interchange between direct connection (when home) and <IP_ADDRESS>:3128 when in uni .. now I can't change systemwide proxy settings anymore
[18:13] <istevenmon> st__: i thought about it, but wanted to know if there was something already implemented, and i dont know if google would like me pinging 24/7
[18:14] <jcrawford> istevenmon, yes as st__ said write a script that pings google every hour or so and logs when the connection is down
[18:14] <jcrawford> no way to notify anyone though other than a log since there is no connection
[18:14] <jcrawford> chadi, why can you not? what happens when you click apply system-wide?
[18:14] <jcrawford> I do a very similar thing with my works corporate proxy
[18:14] <BluesKaj> jcrawford, if you wish you can PM me with your website url. :)
[18:15] <istevenmon> jcrawford: well yes, i just want to know for my box because it will force to switch my isp since i have two connections but the 1 hour gap is too long
[18:15] <SteveThing> well, i figured it out...
[18:15] <chadi> jcrawford, it used to work fine -- started to experiment this after having updated -- it just hangs .. then asks for my pass 3 times in a row, then asks for my pass to change gconf settings and it says wrong pass
[18:15] <jcrawford> chadi, then you are entering an incorrect password
[18:16] <chadi> jcrawford, this is not the first time I do it.. come on
[18:16] <jcrawford> chadi, try creating a new user account and trying to set the proxy stuff under that new user to see if it works or not
[18:16] <jcrawford> chadi, i have a python script that might help ya but it's not 100% finished
[18:16] <chadi> jcrawford, how come it accepts my pass for the 3 times in a row and gives wrong pass only when gconf changes come
[18:16] <jcrawford> and for some reason when the script is run if you open the UI it does not see it as being set system-wide even though it is :)
[18:17] <JohnHeikkila> chadi: Are you trying to do "su"?
[18:17] <jcrawford> chadi, that I am not sure of
[18:17] <chadi> JohnHeikkila, no
[18:17] <jcrawford> JohnHeikkila, he is changing the prefs under System -> Preferences -> Network Proxy
[18:17] <jcrawford> and hitting Apply System-wide
[18:17] <jcrawford> but when it comes time to save the gconf it rejects his password
[18:17] <jcrawford> but accepts it 2 times before the 3rd
[18:17] <JohnHeikkila> Ohh
[18:18] <JohnHeikkila> Why 3 times?
[18:18] <jcrawford> so i am not sure why GConf would reject it
[18:18] <ysk> how could i learn terminla commands?
[18:18] <jcrawford> yea i wondered that too, it's 2 times for me
[18:18] <chadi> yeah it used to be 2 times for me too :/
[18:18] <avinash_hm> hi, i have a program generating seg fault ... i wan't to dump the core file .. it's not getting dumped...'ulimit -c' is unlimited .. any pointers ..
[18:18] <chadi> now 3 times and the 4th for gconf
[18:18] <AbhiJit>  bye

[18:19] <TheEskimo> Hello #ubuntu. I have a slight problem. I'm trying to install the grub boot loader on my /dev/sda5 partition by running "grub-install /dev/sda5". The error is "Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device". Additional details: I'm using a macbook pro and trying to do a triple boot (win and osx working, just need my *nix). If I run mount /dev/sda5 /media/tmp + ls /media/tmp(/boot) I can see the boot folder exi
[18:19] <TheEskimo> sts and contains the right files from what i can tell.
[18:19] <ysk> thanks
[18:20] <mcrawfor> arg why the hell does terminal server reconnect me when i logout unless i click a stupid button within 30 secs? why can't I turn that braindead functionality off? i logged out because i wanted to log out! </rant>
[18:20] <istevenmon> ubuntu supports vrrpd right?
[18:20] <JohnHeikkila> istevenmon: Yes
[18:20] <chadi> jcrawford, http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=34510 after trying several times
[18:20] <istevenmon> awesome thanks a lot
[18:21] <obiwan_> hi, i'm trying to mount a file as a partition. i filled a 30 mb file with zeros. the effect i want is that when i do fdisk -l, i get a sort of /dev/sth for that file, so i can mount it or something. does this manke any sense?
[18:21] <JohnHeikkila> istevenmon: I think vrrpd is for linux
[18:21] <istevenmon> but wanted to know if there was like a package or if i needed to compile form source
[18:21] <chadi> jcrawford, note that I also use ntlmaps which listens on 5865, and cntlm listens on 3128, I used to use both interchangeably withotu any problems before the updates, and it used to ask for the pass 2 times only

[18:25] <KillGuta> Guys, how can I download youtube videos?
[18:25] <jcrawford> mine seems to work fine I don't get all that junk output you do
[18:25] <jcrawford> I get the systemwide stuff once and only once
[18:25] <chadi> jcrawford, yeah
[18:25] <jcrawford> yours also says that your user proxy settings differ from the system
[18:25] <chadi> JohnHeikkila, any idea?
[18:25] <jcrawford> might want to check that
[18:25] <KillGuta> I tried clive and youtube-dl and they didn't work
[18:25] <oracle> how do i make sure for certain that NetworkManager NEVER EVER STARTS AGAIN
[18:25] <chadi> jcrawford, what does that mean exactly/
[18:26] <jcrawford> chadi, look at the systemwide information
[18:26] <JohnHeikkila> oracle: "sudo apt-get install wicd"
[18:26] <jcrawford> your system wide HTTP uses port 3128 but your USER HTTP uses 5865
[18:26] <Johanness> BadElvis: use multiple partitions and a bootloader
[18:26] <Pici> KillGuta: I've used abby in the past.
[18:26] <oracle> any one else?
[18:26] <jcrawford> fix that and try again :)
[18:26] <oracle> i dont want any network manager
[18:26] <chadi> jcrawford, so I need to reset my user settings?
[18:26] <juk_> in word linux 5 letters im not bot
[18:27] <Pici> juk_: Excuse me?
[18:27] <jcrawford> chadi, i would either fix the user settings or the system settings whichever is incorrect
[18:27] <KillGuta> Pici, nope. Abby uses clive
[18:28] <Johanness> oracle: Is shutdown network in networkmanger not enouch.
[18:28] <chadi> jcrawford, I uderstand you, but I don't know how. any idea how to reset everything and start over without formatting /home
[18:28] <Pici> KillGuta: And abby worked for me as recently as this past weekend.
[18:28] <juk_> Pici: i was talking to floodbot
[18:28] <chadi> jcrawford, everything as in network proxy settings
[18:28] <prod-beginner> Still not having any luck with userdir. Everythingis set up correctly. even UserDir enable USERNAME isnt helping
[18:29] <LjL> juk_: however, floodbot is just a robot, and won't realize you're talking to him :)
[18:30] <leshak> hi! i need from help! i'm installed two servers, the first server are mysql databases but the second server i need that connect on the first mysql server using phpmyadmin, how can i make this? <IP_ADDRESS>(mysql databases) <IP_ADDRESS>(need connect phpmyadmin with <IP_ADDRESS>)
[18:30] <prod-beginner> could someone helpme debug please as i really dont kno where to start when debugging
[18:30] <no--name> how to set all nautilus settings to their defaults?
[18:30] <juk_> prod-beginner: you want dir listing enabled?
[18:30] <prod-beginner> i am trying to enable userdir in apache2
[18:31] <prod-beginner> but only gettin 404
[18:31] <WhiteDawn> leshak, do you need to change the ip of the second server? I never used mysql or phpmyadmin, but on the second server cant u manualy set an IP on the network to <IP_ADDRESS>?
[18:31] <juk_> prod-beginner: what is it?
[18:31] <jrib> prod-beginner: well how did you try?  (try to keep responses on a single line and address the person you are talking to)
[18:31] <prod-beginner> ok sorry
[18:32] <jcrawford> chadi, if you ALWAYS used the gnome-network-properties you should be able to click Direct Internet Connection and apply system wide
[18:32] <gwern> on lucid i686. has anyone seen an issue where mplayer plays files without problem, but then takes like 5 seconds to exit? doesn't seem to be related to .mplayer/config or mplayer options
[18:32] <jcrawford> I am not sure which files are altered so I am not sure what to tell you to edit :)
[18:33] <jrib> gwern: yes, it's related to the sound (try with -ao null to see).  I haven't cared enough to look into ti
[18:34] <gwern> jrib: hm, you're right. it exits immediately with -ao null
[18:34] <WhiteDawn> gwern, pulseaudio issue maybe?
[18:34] <gwern> WhiteDawn: that would be the conclusion I'm trying to avoid :(
[18:35] <JEEBsv> Ohi. Can anyone enlighten me on the official way of letting a 'normal user' touch (write etc.) stuff to the default /var/www folder, or is it overall unrecommended to use that folder in the first place?
[18:35] <gwern> I'll try asking #mplayer
[18:35] <JEEBsv> I tried adding myself to the www-data group, but I still don't seem to have the rights
[18:35] <WhiteDawn> gwern, can you try using alsa wrapper for pulse audio?
[18:35] <WhiteDawn> gwern, good idea
[18:36] <chadi> jcrawford, no I don't always use it; I usually find the UI from System > Pref > network proxy
[18:36] <LordDragon> hey all
[18:36] <jcrawford> chadi, that's the same UI so all is good
[18:36] <jrib> gwern: well if you find a solution, I'd appreciate it if you pass it along :)
[18:36] <jcrawford> i meant if you manually altered files, then you could not click the direct internet connection to wipe away the other changes
[18:37] <StaRetji> folks, I've installed network-manager under xfce4 but for some reason there is no icon present on taskbar. Help needed!
[18:37] <LordDragon> i tried compliling the latest mplayer and it failed with errors. now the version i installed with apt-get is now broken and wont stop. is there a way i can uninstall and reinstall the apt-get version?
[18:37] <gwern> WhiteDawn: while I'm waiting on #mplayer, any resources on using the alsa wrapper?
[18:37] <chadi> jcrawford, I never did, but I have a feeling that the flashplugin-installer did that :/
[18:37] <WhiteDawn> gwern, try -ao alsa possibly?
[18:37] <gwern> jrib: well, I need a solution because it's tripling the time it takes to do my daily flashcard review; it's just an inconvenience to you
[18:38] <leshak> WhiteDawn: server 1 - all databases | server 2 only phpmyadmin, how can i make for this phpmyadmin on server 2 connect using databases of the server 1?
[18:38] <rsr> hello
[18:38] <jrib> gwern: just use -ao alsa
[18:38] <gwern> WhiteDawn: no, -ao alsa doesn't seem to help
[18:38] <Zethrok> LordDragon: Cant you just do apt-get remove mplayer && apt-get install mplayer?
[18:38] <jrib> gwern: oh, it helps me :/
[18:38] <gwern> :(
[18:38] <LordDragon> Zethrok, ill try that
[18:38] <rsr> I am booting ubuntu on a macbook pro...trying to diagnose what I think is a hardware failure
[18:38] <st__> how to detect Intel AC97 sound card i Ubuntu?
[18:38] <WhiteDawn> gwern, hmm -ao aoss?
[18:39] <jrib> gwern: note I have mplayer installed from the motumedia ppa
[18:39] <chadi> jcrawford, I really don't know what to do ...
[18:39] <billur_19> How can i dock to system tray the chromium-browser (or google-chrome) with Alltray with a command ?
[18:39] <rsr> When I boot up ubuntu, does it use any of the macbooks proprietary firmwares by default?
[18:39] <gwern> WhiteDawn: -ao aoss?? -ao help lists no such thing here
[18:39] <LordDragon> Zethrok, ok i tried that. it still wont start
[18:39] <gwern> WhiteDawn: you mean -ao oss?
[18:40] <JohnHeikkila> WhiteDawn: gwern Do you mean "alsa -ao" in the console?
[18:40] <LordDragon> lorddragon@ubuntu:~$ mplayer
[18:40] <LordDragon> mplayer: relocation error: mplayer: symbol codec_wav_tags, version LIBAVFORMAT_52 not defined in file libavformat.so.52 with link time reference
[18:40] <Zethrok> LordDragon: What kind of errors? Starting it from console or via filemanager?
[18:40] <LordDragon> thats what happens when i try to start it from the command line
[18:40] <ip4nk> !help
[18:40] <WhiteDawn> gwern, try it
[18:40] <LordDragon> Zethrok, i think when i tried compiling a new mplayer, it updated certain components to incomatible libraries
[18:41] <LordDragon> i dont know how to revert it back
[18:41] <osteenbergen> Hi
[18:41] <WhiteDawn> JohnHeikkila, we talking bout mplayer -ao alsa
[18:41] <JohnHeikkila> Sounds like your MPlayer can't play WAV files
[18:41] <JohnHeikkila> Okay
[18:41] <billur_19> How can i dock to system tray the chromium-browser (or google-chrome) with Alltray with a command ?
[18:41] <Zethrok> LordDragon: Could you try https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mplayer/+bug/515429
[18:41] <JohnHeikkila> !hello | osteenbergen
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> billur_19: run: alltray chromium-browser
[18:42] <gwern> WhiteDawn: -ao oss seems to work, but only if nothing else is running, which means it's interesting but not a real solution
[18:42] <gwern> WhiteDawn: if something else is running -ao oss kills mplayer with an error about /dev/dsp being busy
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> gwern: means itsnot a codec issue
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> billur_19: same with any command :)
[18:42] <billur_19> ActionParsnip:  this is not working for chromium-browser (or google-chrome).
[18:42] <WhiteDawn> gwern, right, try this "aoss mplayer -ao oss"
[18:42] <skfin> Hey guys, do you have any idea how to record output sound(sound going to soundcard and from there to speakers)? outRec doesnt work and it doesnt have much settings, I also tried arecord and stuff but it didn't work(only managed to record some stutter)
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> billur_19: maybe it has issues being trayed.
[18:43] <billur_19> ActionParsnip: the problem is chrome is running many process not one.
[18:43] <LordDragon> Zethrok, ok someone replied to that with: this problem is caused by using unofficial, 3rd party packages of ffmpeg. install the ones from the ubuntu archive to resolve this issue.
[18:43] <gwern> WhiteDawn: gimme a moment to install alsa-oss...
[18:43] <LordDragon> Zethrok, how do i reinstall with the official ffmpeg?
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> billur_19: if you run the browser, then press alt+f2 and run: alltray ,if you click the browser, does it tray?
[18:43] <leshak> i need from help! (server 1 - all databases | server 2 only phpmyadmin, how can i make for this phpmyadmin on server 2 connect using databases of the server 1?)
[18:43] <gwern> WhiteDawn: a command like 'aoss mplayer -ao oss skank.ogg' has the exit delay with and without other programs running
[18:44] <billur_19> ActionParsnip: i have to give to cammand the process of windows. but how ? i had to docky with any idea to system tray. but i dont know how..
[18:44] <gwern> WhiteDawn: works both ways though
[18:44] <osteenbergen> skfin isnt the default recorder working?
[18:44] <billur_19> ActionParsnip: yes with gui it works.
[18:44] <a5h15h> quit
[18:45] <WhiteDawn> gwern, very strange, it seems it doesnt matter what sound layer mplayer is using, as long as it goes through alsa/pulseaudio it lags on close
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> billur_19: log a bug is all I can suggest. I know awn can have apps minimizing to the dock like mac does
[18:45] <billur_19> ActionParsnip: because with gui we tray the chrome's window not the other processes. i need to do it on command line.
[18:45] <obiwan_> hey juk_ i've read that, and it certanily does what i need. the problem is that looks like a project, in the sense that it doesn't look like i could grab a binary and run a command in my terminal. maybe i should install the uml thing, etc. i wonder if there's some other way, using common unix programs like mount, mkfs, etc. i think what i want is simmilar to what swap file does. i mean, you can either use a swap partition, or use a file as s
[18:45] <Zethrok> LordDragon: I'm guessing you might have installed another version of ffmpeg or using 3rd party for another [unofficial] build
[18:45] <billur_19> ActionParsnip: i use awn too. i did not know that awn do that. i will research.
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> billur_19: if you can alltray PID then you can get the pid of the process and tray that instead
[18:46] <gwern> WhiteDawn: that makes sense if mplayer or a layer is doing some sort of transaction with pulseaudio - registering/unregistering or soemwthing. I know part of mplayer's slowness to start comes from it doing stuff to block various screensavers from running
[18:46] <Zethrok> LordDragon: Could you try something like apt-get remove ffmpeg && apt-get install ffmpeg and run mplayer again?
[18:46] <gwern> pulseaudio doesn't have a reputation for speed
[18:46] <Zol> Damnit, didn't work. Still can't write ???????????? :(
[18:46] <LordDragon> Zethrok, well i was using some build script for getting the latest mplayer and it installed 3rd party libraries. how can i reinstall the proper ffmpeg? is there a way i can resintall mplayer and all its dependencies?
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> billur_19: set the win placement to smart and it should do it
[18:46] <xbonesx> downloading the mint menu for use in ubuntu is a nice addition... love it
[18:47] <Braber01> um with having a text-based login is there a way to change the color of the font or size of the font?
[18:47] <chadi> jcrawford, are those settings in /home or where?   Also, make sure that the credentials you are using are able to access mysql from the ip address that your phpmyadmin server is running on.
[18:47] <xbonesx> st__: why?
[18:47] <st__> it's inconvenient
[18:47] <billur_19> ActionParsnip: PIS is changing everytime i restart the program (also my computer). so it will not work on startup this command: alltray PID. :(
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> billur_19: you may need to alltray via pid after the app is executed using a bash script to both launch the app and to tray it
[18:48] <gwern> jrib: though https://launchpad.net/~motumedia/+archive/mplayer-daily doesn't seem very active...
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> billur_19: you can use the pidof command ;)
[18:48] <xbonesx> st__: i dont think so, but then again im about eyecandy and im all about that aspect
[18:48] <LordDragon> Zethrok, ok i did it. still get the same error
[18:48] <leshak> Pici: thanks! i'll try
[18:48] <billur_19> ActionParsnip:  i want to add this command to system startup.
[18:49] <st__> why i must probe my soundcard manually??
[18:49] <osteenbergen> leshak you can also try this: http://www.mittalpatel.co.in/access_mysql_database_hosted_remote_server_using_phpmyadmin
[18:49] <billur_19> ActionParsnip: sorry i did not understant you :(
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> billur_19: fine, write the script then add the script to the startup
[18:49] <JohnHeikkila> billur_19: System > Administration > Startup Applications
[18:49] <JohnHeikkila> billur_19: You can also add scripts there
[18:49] <VCoolio> Braber01: for colors add something like this to ~/.bashrc  (and /root/.bashrc if you like) http://pastie.org/1187014
[18:49] <WhiteDawn> gwern, try "mplayer -msglevel all=6"
[18:49] <skfin> BluesKaj: It is a game
[18:49] <billur_19> JohnHeikkila i know. i did it already. but the command have problems...
[18:50] <Guest28688> weird...
[18:50] <JohnHeikkila> billur_19: What kind?
[18:50] <peeps[work]> i just installed PAE kernel via apt-get.  will it automatically use this from now on when i boot, or do I have to edit something to make tha tthe default/
[18:50] <billur_19> ) ActionParsnip: sorry which command. i had already a command script on startup of system. but the command is not working.
[18:50] <skfin> BluesKaj: I solved this whit 3,5mm jack wire, I connected other end to speaker output and other to line in
[18:50] <WhiteDawn> gwern, and see what is printed out in the console when u close
[18:50] <leshak> osteenbergen: thanks! (:
[18:50] <gwern> WhiteDawn: http://pastebin.com/BB4HaYMU
[18:50] <billur_19> JohnHeikkila: i can not tray the chromium-browser (or google-chrome) .
[18:50] <Guest28688> Okay, I'm running lubuntu 10.04 and have a lexmark 2600 printer... not sure how to set it up?
[18:51] <JohnHeikkila> billur_19: Why not? Why should you even tray it?
[18:51] <st__> why my sound card works when I modprobe it but not automatically?
[18:51] <billur_19> JohnHeikkila: i use alltray to do it but it is not working because chrome is running many process not one.
[18:51] <Braber01> Thes color codes are for the forground colors right?
[18:51] <gwern> WhiteDawn: the long delay is just after 'Uninit audio: ffmpeg
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> billur_19: make the script launch the browser then run: val='pidof chromium-browser'; alltray $val ,you will need to examine the man page of alltray to see if it needs a special switch to tray via pid
[18:51] <JohnHeikkila> billur_19: I can run "alltray chromium-browser" without any trouble
[18:52] <billur_19> JohnHeikkila: not everytime. it is not possible ...,
[18:52] <rsr>  when I boot a linux live cd... does it boot up a laptop´s proprietary firmware by default? like firmware for graphics card?
[18:52] <billur_19> JohnHeikkila: many times it works but many times not...
[18:52] <VCoolio> Braber01: right
[18:52] <LordDragon> is there a way to reinstall mplayer and all its dependencies?
[18:52] <WhiteDawn> gwern, hmm could be a problem with ffmpeg then? Atleast the problem is a little more specific now
[18:52] <osteenbergen> rsr no it does not
[18:52] <chadi> what is the difference between system wide proxy settings and user proxy settings?
[18:52] <BluesKaj> skfin, check alsamixer make sure none of your cytls are muted or turned down ..then you won't need the line in loop
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> rsr: if its on the cd, yes
[18:52] <rsr> osteenbergen, ok thank you...just to make sure, i am talking about the firmware not the drivers
[18:53] <JohnHeikkila> billur_19: Does it not tray it? For me, it trays it but I have to click the icon on the tray to run it
[18:53] <jcrawford> chadi, system-wide means all users use those setting unless overridden
[18:53] <jrib> LordDragon: reinstalling rarely changes things
[18:53] <BluesKaj> err ctrls , skfin
[18:53] <jcrawford> user means ONLY for that user
[18:53] <gwern> WhiteDawn: it could be, but doesn't 'uninit' and 'removing filter' sound like it's waiting on pulseaudio/the system
[18:53] <LordDragon> jrib, so then what do i need to? completely reinstall ubuntu?
[18:53] <jrib> LordDragon: I don't know, I don't know your issue
[18:53] <jcrawford> chadi, as for your issues i am sorry I do not know how to solve it
[18:53] <Zethrok> LordDragon: hmmn, could you look into System->Administration->Software Sources. Try and disable most/all in "Other Software". Run apt-get update and then apt-get full-upgrade.
[18:54] <billur_19> JohnHeikkila:  with gui it trays because it understand which process is window. but with command line it does not works :(
[18:54] <chadi> jcrawford, yeah, it's okay thank you for trying :)
[18:54] <Zethrok> long shot though
[18:54] <JohnHeikkila> billur_19: Are you in a console mode?
[18:54] <ActionParsnip> billur_19: as I said: use. The pidof command
[18:54] <billur_19> ActionParsnip: im trying what you wrote me...
[18:55] <LordDragon> jrib, i had installed mplayer with apt-get, but then wanted to compile the latest one. but my compile failed halfway through and now the original one wont load. i just get this error: mplayer: relocation error: mplayer: symbol codec_wav_tags, version LIBAVFORMAT_52 not defined in file libavformat.so.52 with link time reference
[18:55] <billur_19> JohnHeikkila: console mode? i just had to add a script or command line startup program...
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> billur_19: you'll need to read: man alltray ,to see what switch is needed for pids. You can even assign a hotkey to show/hide the app (fun)
[18:55] <VCoolio> Braber01: now I think about it, the first one, with 333333, may be the bg color
[18:55] <WhiteDawn> gwern, yeah... sorry i'm not sure what to do here, i was hoping for a error message of some sort :/
[18:55] <krash> Anyone? Will a lexmark 2600 printer even work on lubuntu 10.04?
[18:55] <jrib> LordDragon: ls /usr/local/
[18:56] <gwern> WhiteDawn: if it were that easy, I'd've solved it already
[18:56] <osteenbergen> krash no idea but have you searched for it?
[18:56] <VCoolio> krash: isn't lexmark one of those who refuse to support linux in any way?
[18:56] <LordDragon> jrib
[18:56] <LordDragon> lorddragon@ubuntu:~$ ls /usr/local
[18:56] <LordDragon> bin  etc  games  include  lib  man  sbin  share  src
[18:56] <WhiteDawn> gwern, haha too true. The hardest problems are the ones the computer doesnt realize
[18:56] <jrib> LordDragon: what do you have in there :/
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> krash: check the lexmark site as well as www.openprinting.org lexmark are real hit and miss and if the have alinux driver it will most likely only be 32bit
[18:56] <WhiteDawn> gwern, what if u force kill mplayer with "killall mplayer"
[18:57] <coz_> VCoolio,  that #333333 would be close to black  ...is that correct?
[18:57] <krash> K thanks :)
[18:57] <gwern> WhiteDawn: you mean during the delay?
[18:57] <VCoolio> coz_: yes
[18:57] <WhiteDawn> gwern, that as well, but while its running too
[18:57] <ActionParsnip> !hcl | krash
[18:57] <WhiteDawn> gwern, see if it still hangs when u kill it
[18:57] <gwern> WhiteDawn: it does
[18:57] <sandking> anyone use ktoon here?
[18:57] <ActionParsnip> krash: in future I recommend HP. They support linux very well
[18:58] <gwern> WhiteDawn: both while it's still actually playing, and during the delay, it still delays
[18:58] <LordDragon> jrib, i posted whats in there
[18:58] <WhiteDawn> gwern, is it just mplayer? or other programs using audio have this problem
[18:58] <kapcom01> hello, i used ubuntu lucid live cd to install ubuntu on an LVM partitioned disk. First i installed lvm2 so the installer sees the logical volumes and then i installed on one of them.. Installation completed and after reboot  it drops to a shell.. something like this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/255477
[18:58] <LordDragon> Zethrok, E: Invalid operation full-upgrade
[18:58] <jrib> LordDragon: I meant inside the directories you posted.  You clearly have some custom things installed
[18:59] <gwern> WhiteDawn: hm. I'm not really sure how to check. if I fired up totem or something, any delay might be hidden by the GUI
[18:59] <gwern> similarly with flash
[18:59] <gwern> I guess I would need another CLI player
[18:59] <WhiteDawn> gwern, try launching it from the terminal, the prompt wont show up till the progrem closes
[19:00] <jrib> gwern: try cvlc
[19:00] <Zethrok> LordDragon: sorry, just apt-get upgrade :). Just keep in mind disabling all 3rd party sources will fetch official builds if you use those
[19:00] <billur_19>  ActionParsnip:  JohnHeikkila: thank you. i will try that i can do...
[19:00] <gwern> jrib: you mean vlc-nox ?
[19:01] <jrib> gwern: sure, cvlc is the command
[19:01] <LordDragon> Zethrok, yeah it had no effect
[19:01] <wildc4rd> evenin all
[19:02] <RoguishRavager> LordDragon: you did sudo apt-get upgrade right?
[19:02] <gwern> WhiteDawn: think I may've found a similar bug report by gooingling the uninit line: http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-users/2010-August/080852.html
[19:03] <LordDragon> RoguishRavager, yes
[19:03] <blenderer> is there some way to get the docs package for an application or library to always be installed when I install an application or library
[19:03] <WhiteDawn> gwern, sadly no replys
[19:03] <gwern> checking with cvlc doesn't help much. it seems to hang by default since it plays files consecutively immediately
[19:04] <st__> why my sound card works when I modprobe it but not automatically?
[19:04] <mbroeker> blenderer, it will be most likely in the -dev packages
[19:05] <gwern> WhiteDawn: yeah. nothing in september either
[19:05] <mbroeker> blenderer, check for -dev and -doc packages.
[19:05] <WhiteDawn> gwern, have u tried the terminal vlc
[19:05] <blenderer> i'm often offline, or connected to horrible connections, thinking damnit i wish I had the docs
[19:05] <LordDragon> RoguishRavager, it upgraded a few things, but nothing to do with mplayer
[19:05] <gwern> WhiteDawn: that was the terminal vlc
[19:06] <blenderer> mbroeker: i was hoping for somehow to automatically pulll them. I don't always remember to look
[19:06] <gwern> at level 9, the before-slowdown line is '[[[uninit getch2]]]
[19:06] <gwern> followed by 'alsa-uninit: pcm closed
[19:06] <gwern> so something about unhooking from alsa is very slow
[19:06] <WhiteDawn> gwern, yeah,
[19:08] <obiwan_> hey people, i'd like to know if its possible to make a partition out of a file. so fdisk -l will list /dev/file as a partition. i alraedy have a 30 mb file filled with zeros.
[19:08] <awdafgfaaa> hello ppl please someone help me with bind9   i have rndc issue i have run rndc-confgen and updated both named.conf and rndc.conf file the key is same but i have this error: http://pastebin.com/hZV5TAH8
[19:08] <awdafgfaaa> Im sick fixing this error i really need some help :-)
[19:09] <st__> obiwan_, loopback device
[19:09] <Dr_Willis>  /quit
[19:09] <obiwan_> st__: that's what i tried, mount -t iso9660 -o loop ~/Desktop/file /mnt
[19:10] <WhiteDawn> gwern, its obviously a widespread problem as the other user on the irc reported the same issue. Cant seem to find anything on the internet though
[19:10] <gwern> alright, let's try mplayer from https://launchpad.net/~rvm/+archive/mplayer
[19:10] <Atlantic777> Hi!  Is there some way to get it work again?
[19:10] <Zykotic-K9> obiwan_, iso9660 is typically cdrom filesystem - is that what you want?
[19:10] <Atlantic777> I erased the whole dir.
[19:10] <mbroeker> awdafgfaaa, check the permissions for your key file rndc.key
[19:10] <gwern> nope, that mplayer has the delay too
[19:10] <obiwan_> st__: but doesnt work :( i get wrong filesystem or osmething
[19:10] <WhiteDawn> gwern, yeah i was gonna suggest u run a newwer version, but older ones work too
[19:11] <gwern> maybe I should try subversion mplayer
[19:11] <WhiteDawn> gwern, worth a shot
[19:11] <Zykotic-K9> gwern, what issue are you having with mplayer?
[19:11] <obiwan_> yes Zykotic-K9 , i want to make a kind of iso9660 cd device, so i can burn images to it
[19:11] <ActionParsnip> Tried vlc?
[19:11] <WhiteDawn> Zykotic-K9, it hangs for a couple of seconds on close
[19:11] <awdafgfaaa> mbroeker, -rw------- 1 chrnamed chrnamed    77 Sep 28 21:55 rndc.key
[19:11] <c3l> gwern: there wouldnt be any reason that the nightly builds would work, the version in the repo is stable and nice
[19:12] <gwern> ActionParsnip: vlc is no good; Mnemosyne uses mplayer
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> I see
[19:12] <VCoolio> Atlantic777: recreate the dir (sudo mkdir -p /var/log); if you want the contents back, try some recovery tool, there are several
[19:12] <WhiteDawn> Zykotic-K9, we narrowed it down to something with closing alsa
[19:12] <gwern> ActionParsnip: it may be possible to make mnemosyne use vlc or something, but it is distinctly an inferior option to actually solving the problem
[19:12] <Zykotic-K9> WhiteDawn, gwern sorry i gots nothin' for that issue (haven't experienced it, or heard of it before)  good luck guys.
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> gwern: have you ran the sound troubleshooting script?
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> gwern: mplayer imho is better anyhoo :)
[19:13] <mbroeker> awdafgfaaa, awdafgfaaa chmod 644 rndc.key and restart bind. if it helps, play with the permissions. if not, restore the old permissions, eg chmod 600 rndc.key
[19:13] <gwern> ActionParsnip: no. I doubt it would pick up non-error issues
[19:13] <Zykotic-K9> WhiteDawn, actually you could try switching the ao to something different to test
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> gwern: it gives a LOT of information about the sound system and drivers etc
[19:13] <krash> Thanks again all who answered me working on it :)
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> gwern: give its output using www.pastie.org
[19:14] <WhiteDawn> Zykotic-K9, yeah oss worked fine, but when we wrapped it in aoss the problem came back. Running OSS is a workaround as mplayer can be the only program running because it needs direct access to /dev/dsp
[19:14] <Atlantic777> VCoolio, there is /var/log dir but it's empty.
[19:14] <gwern> ActionParsnip: I don't know what this script is, anyway
[19:14] <Atlantic777> VCoolio, apt wont work because lock file is gone.
[19:14] <Loshki> ActionParsnip: where is the 'sound troubleshooting script?
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> gwern: that's why I'm getting you it
[19:15] <obiwan_> Zykotic-K9: it looks like mount doesn't have support for this particular image. nonetheless, it looks like brasero has support for it. so i'd like to burn that weird image from brasero to a 'common iso' that works with mount

[19:16] <Zykotic-K9> obiwan_, you can only use standard ISO files with the loop mount command (not sure what image type you are currently using?)
[19:16] <Sjeban> i have wireless problem in ubuntu 10.04
[19:16] <abstrakt> ActionParsnip: no that's a request every five seconds, I want five requests every second
[19:16] <abstrakt> I'm pretty sure linklint will do that

[19:16] <gwern> ActionParsnip: I don't see any relevant scripts there
[19:16] <WhiteDawn> Sjeban, could you elaborate a little more please? Like what problems are you having, whats your wireless card, computer name if not custom......general stuff

[19:17] <dpac_> ActionParsnip: Sorry, that was for abstrakt

[19:17] <ActionParsnip> dpac_: np :)

[19:19] <Gaming4JC> Hey all, I've got a problem installing Lucid on a Compaq SR1901WM. LiveCD causes the monitor to turn off... any ideas?
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> Gwern: cd $HOME: wget http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh
[19:20] <gwern> ActionParsnip: ? didn't I just link you to the output of a successful run?
[19:20] <Galaxor> My usb drive keeps dropping out.  It'll just start hanging rather than returning data.  dmesg says this:  usb 2-3: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> gwern: my browser is slow. My bad. The script was still on the page
[19:21] <Galaxor> I thought it was a problem that my external enclosure was broken, so I got a new external enclosure and a new cable.  It does the same thing.
[19:21]  * Gaming4JC assumes it's a graphics card issue with the internal NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE
[19:21] <Gaming4JC> *googles*
[19:21] <Gaming4JC> :P
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> gwern: diver doesn't match the utilities loaded. If you add this ppa it will give you .23
[19:21] <krash> woot got driver from lexmark and it's working beautifully thanks again :)
[19:22] <intrader> Using gpartd I have made 18Gb available - how do I install 10.10 beta into this space?
[19:22] <Roasted> can anybody help me figure out why my tftp server is bombing out?
[19:22] <Pici> intrader : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Maverick/10.10 support/discussion.
[19:23] <intrader> Pici, thanks, I will do that
[19:23] <ActionParsnip> gwern: https://launchpad.net/~ricotz/+archive/unstable
[19:23] <Galaxor> Which of these is more likely the cause of my usb hangups?  a) Recent upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04.  b) Something wrong with usb hardware on the motherboard.  c) Electrical problems with the jack I'm plugged into?
[19:23] <ActionParsnip> intrader: boot to maverick cd and installjust like you would normally
[19:23] <Galaxor> Or d) something wrong with the drive inside the enclosure?
[19:23] <dossantos> a
[19:24] <ActionParsnip> krash: sweet. You got lucky
[19:24] <gwern> yes master I will install everything you tell me! all my boxen are urs :)
[19:24] <Galaxor> dossantos: Are there known problems and known solutions with this version?
[19:24] <obiwan_> Zykotic-K9: is a mac .cdr image. it's supposed to work by just renaming it to .iso. but it wont load. double clicking it loads brasero tho. brasero won't let me burn to the disk, and i haven't any other device to burn. so i thought i could simulate a loop device file so brasero can write to it.
[19:24] <ActionParsnip> gwern: later alsa may make it friendlier
[19:24] <gwern> we shall see. upgrading now
[19:24] <Galaxor> dossantos: Are there known problems and not known solutions with this problem?
[19:25] <Galaxor> dossantos: I was googling to see if there were bugs open about this, but I only found stuff from 2-3 years ago.
[19:25] <gwern> ActionParsnip: hm, is there something I should do afterwards to restart puleasudio?
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> obiwan_: in terminal if you run: file imagefileyouhave what is output?  Or rebott to be super sure
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> gwern: its a weird creature. Lubuntu doesn't have it ;)
[19:26] <Galaxor> Anybody else have an idea?  Is there a known problem with the usb in ubuntu 10.04 that would cause my drive to hang up?
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> Galaxor: does it work for a while then hang?

[19:27] <gwern> ActionParsnip: no, that ppa upgrade doesn't seem to have helped
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> obiwan_: hmm, you may need to convert it then, its only seen as. Raw data, not a cd image
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> gwern: bah, well you have the latest alsa now which should help some
[19:28] <Roasted> can anybody help me figure out why my tftp server is bombing out?
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: check its logs would be my first port of call
[19:29] <obiwan_> yeah ActionParsnip but brasero reads it as iso file, and gives me the option to burn it. if only i could cheat him with a file as the destination device, i could make a iso file from the output data
[19:29] <dwarder> can i use right mouse button drag to scroll?
[19:29] <Roasted> ActionParsnip, well I nuked all of the tftp info because I did a complete removal of it in order to try an dget it working again. are tftp logs kept in the tftp folder??

[19:31] <ActionParsnip> k4r4mb4: the first ip is <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS> is the network
[19:31] <k4r4mb4> and the last one?
[19:31] <ActionParsnip> k4r4mb4: ask in #networking this is ubuntu support ONLY

[19:32] <Gaming4JC> there's a problem, I don't have access to a network to install nividia packages
[19:32] <Gaming4JC> xD
[19:32] <dormente> xD
[19:32] <ActionParsnip> Gaming4JC: then you need toget a connection
[19:32] <tgywa> but can't shutdown with command line
[19:33] <tgywa> any idea?
[19:33] <dormente> What's the error?
[19:34] <dormente> shutdown -h now
[19:34] <Gaming4JC> hmm mine? Monitor keeps borking out ^^
[19:34] <Roasted> When you go to a network server and you log in, where is that info saved? My password changed and I had set my links to those file servers as permanently remember.
[19:34] <Gaming4JC> as soon as LiveCD boots the sucker turns right off
[19:34] <Gaming4JC> xP
[19:34] <Gaming4JC> I would have thought lucid could support Nvidia out of the box
[19:34] <Gaming4JC> but it failz D:
[19:34] <Gaming4JC> Sabayon supports it
[19:34] <Gaming4JC> xD
[19:35] <mattgyver> Gaming4JC, maybe try a different graphics mode option in grub?
[19:35] <LordDragon> ok so now i got mplayer working, but vlc wont install
[19:35] <dormente> Try the stuff on the link you pasted here
[19:35] <dormente> Try the safe mode
[19:35] <Gaming4JC> matthyver: I would but it hasn't even installed. Can't make it to the installer from LiveCD
[19:35] <Gaming4JC> :/
[19:36] <mattgyver> Gaming4JC, I think you can still supply the boot option to the live cd by like pressing tab if i remember
[19:36] <Roasted> When you go to a network server and you log in, where is that info saved? My password changed and I had set my links to those file servers as permanently remember.

[19:47] <mattgyver> st__, unless your talking about the /etc/modprobe file, you just will put the name of the module (if modprobe snd-hda-intel you put snd-hda-intel)
[19:47] <ejv> linux hates you! :D
[19:47] <dormente> On the modprobe.conf, you write "alias modulename"
[19:48] <Roasted_> When I connect to a networked file server, I have to log in. I saved my credentials permanently, however they have changed. Where are those settings saved at so I can alter them?

[20:02] <Typh> TeacherTomL: these have always been a mystery to me too.
[20:02] <mobasher> TeacherTomL: i think light blue is the for the symbolic links
[20:02] <mattgyver> tgywa, not entirely sure how to do all ... how many users are on the system, too many to just cat the files together?
[20:03] <mattgyver> tgywa, .bash_history files*
[20:03] <Sjeban> atheros ar5001
[20:03] <jrib> TeacherTomL: http://paste.ubuntu.com/502270/ is the default stuff (see dircolors-related stuff in coreutils source
[20:03] <TeacherTomL> Thanks Typh.  I find a lot of pages showing me how to change the colors, but no listing of default colors.
[20:03] <panfist> i wanted to alt-middleclick to resize a window and it accidentally zoomed in extremely...how do i zoom out again
[20:03] <tgywa> peterfa, should I tail or what /var/log/* ???
[20:03] <jrib> TeacherTomL: ah, actually you can just: dircolors -p
[20:03] <sandyd> Sjeban: post output of "lsmod" to pastebin
[20:04] <AlexzAK> hi, all! There is a "bug teams" irc channel on freenode?
[20:04] <jrib> AlexzAK: #ubuntu-bugs
[20:04] <TeacherTomL> jrib:  I am not seeing it.  Is there a listing of default colors on this page?
[20:04] <jrib> TeacherTomL: yes, scroll down
[20:04] <VCoolio> TeacherTomL: http://pastie.org/1187148
[20:07] <TeacherTomL> UCoolio;  I am still not getting it.  Lists colors, but not their meaning.  I am looking for something like:  green - Program  Blue - Folder, ets
[20:08] <jrib> TeacherTomL: read what I pastebinned :/
[20:08] <awdafgfaaa> here is my rndc.conf : http://pastebin.com/zwa6QbBp  and here is my my rndc.key source http://pastebin.com/P5Mrfwac
[20:08] <awdafgfaaa> and this is in my named.conf :  http://pastebin.com/HygjiMyv
[20:08] <awdafgfaaa> and  rndc -c /var/chroot/named/etc/bind/rndc.conf -s <IP_ADDRESS> -p 953 status
[20:08] <awdafgfaaa> prints this error http://pastebin.com/k21gYQ4M   please help me figure out whats wrong
[20:08] <FloodBot4> awdafgfaaa: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:09] <Karen_m> can anyone help me figure out my sound issue?  on one reboot it works, another it doesn't.  The only thing that seems to trigger anything is if my headphones are plugged in or not.  How do I disable hot-sensing jacks or auto-sensing jacks?
[20:09] <TeacherTomL> jrib:  I went to: http://pastie.org/1187148 but just see a list of colors and numbers.  Maybe I am missing something
[20:09] <jrib> TeacherTomL: that's not my link
[20:09] <dwarder> anyone was able to install adobe photoshop cs4 on ubuntu wine?
[20:09] <mattgyver> TeacherTomL, hey theres also a graphic too here which might help; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ls#Behavior it looks like most of the colors too
[20:10] <jrib> TeacherTomL: I also said you can do: dircolors -p
[20:10] <zamba> i'm looking for a program that's going to be used internally by a newspaper to organize the thousands of images they take every year.. i need a way to tag the images, so that they can be easily searched for.. doesn't need to be a web application, but it really needs to be fast.. it also needs to run on a central server, where a set of users are able to upload new images easily
[20:11] <sirninja> I'm about to do a fresh install of ubuntu, but I need a proprietary driver for my wireless, where do I go to download a .deb so I can install it?
[20:11] <trijntje> !wine | dwarder
[20:11] <TeacherTomL> Tried dircolors -p.  I get a long list of output.  I am still missing something.
[20:11] <Ken8521> sirninja, whats your wireless device
[20:11] <ninjai> is there any way I can create a progress bar which measures the est completion time of a given command?
[20:11] <dwarder> !virtualizers
[20:11] <Gaming4JC> !ndiswrapper |  sirninja
[20:11] <jrib> TeacherTomL: read the output...
[20:11] <ninjai> from the CLI that is
[20:11] <sirninja> Ken8521: broadcom
[20:12] <Ken8521> sirninja, there's a couple different broadcom chipsets
[20:12] <sirninja> I need the package bcmwl-kernel-source
[20:12] <Ken8521> sirninja, that should be on the live cd if i recall correctl
[20:12] <sirninja> that's what I installed to get it working.. I just won't have an internet connection this time
[20:12] <Ken8521> no internet connection required
[20:12] <karlo94> what do this option when you click right click on desktop "Clean Up by Name" ?
[20:12] <Ken8521> !broadcom | sirninja
[20:12] <dwarder> !AppDB
[20:13] <sirninja> is there a place I can download the .deb?
[20:13] <sirninja> just in case it isn't on the cd?
[20:13] <jrib> sirninja: packages.ubuntu.com
[20:13] <Ken8521> sirninja, you shouldn't need the deb.. iirc, it's on the CD, so just apt-get it
[20:13] <sirninja> I'll try that first, but just in case that doesn't work, I need a backup plan
[20:13] <sirninja> I don't want to be stuck without internet
[20:14] <Ken8521> sirninja, look at that link i gave you, and there's "b43/STA - No Internet Access" it tells you how to do it.
[20:15] <sirninja> Ken8521: didn't see that part.. that's exactly what I need
[20:15] <tigertv69> hey guys.. how can i do multipart downloading with lftp
[20:15] <dwarder> !QEmu
[20:15] <tigertv69> ?
[20:15] <sirninja> Ken8521: now that broadcom is making it open source, hopefully this is the last time I'll have to do this. :P
[20:16] <Ken8521> sirninja, hopefully... i'm fortunate, all atheros here.. so they just work
[20:16] <SharkWipf> So, anyone got the time to help me get my Ubuntu back up?
[20:16] <Phu> before I start looking at the most arcane of google searches... does anyone have a quick tip on getting ip6tables TPROXY support onto an ubuntu system?
[20:17] <fake51> evening, quick question on setting screen output: if I ssh into my ubuntu machine, can I start a process (like vlc) and have it output to it's sent to it's own screen? how would I go about that?
[20:17] <root__> how can I crack an email address's password
[20:17] <sirninja> fake51: what do you mean its own screen?
[20:18] <fake51> sirninja, I mean ssh into a machine and have the output from vlc sent to the machines video card (the tv out, to be specific)
[20:18] <mobasher> fake51:  you can install tightVNC and view it remotely if that's what u're asking ?
[20:18] <Daniel> how can I edit .mod sounds?
[20:18] <sirninja> fake51: do you know if that output is it's own X display?
[20:19] <SharkWipf> I just did a clean install of Ubuntu 9.04, and installed the videodrivers (ATI 5600) and upgraded the kernel. Now all I get is a black screen, and it only responds to my powerbutton (shows boot splash and shuts down). Any suggestions?
[20:19] <sirninja> fake51: like :0 or :1?
[20:19] <fake51> mobasher, vnc might be the answer, thanks
[20:19] <mobasher> !tightvnc | fake51
[20:19] <fake51> sirninja, I don't know, but was thinking of playing with setting display options to see if that got me anywhere
[20:19] <sirninja> fake51: are you wanting the output to be on the same machine you're sshing into?
[20:19] <mobasher> fake51: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC
[20:19] <dwarder> to run windows xp on my latest stable ubuntu, what should i chose ? !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare ?
[20:20] <dwarder> speed is important
[20:20] <fake51> sirninja, yeah, the machine I'm ssh'ing into has a gfx card with tv out, hence I want to use it as a media center server
[20:20] <mobasher> dwarder: i used virutalbox...played pretty nice
[20:20] <sirninja> fake51: vnc isn't what you want then
[20:20] <Phu> dwarder: I'm inclined to agree. VirtualBox runs well.
[20:20] <fake51> virtualbox is sweet
[20:20] <dwarder> ohh, cool, i used vmware a little
[20:20]  * Ken8521 is a happy vbox user
[20:21] <Phu> so anyone here played with ip6tables ?
[20:21] <SharkWipf> Anyone? (<SharkWipf> I just did a clean install of Ubuntu 9.04, and installed the videodrivers (ATI 5600) and upgraded the kernel. Now all I get is a black screen, and it only responds to my powerbutton (shows boot splash and shuts down). Any suggestions?)
[20:21] <fake51> sirninja, what about setting the display environment var and kicking off vlc, would that work? ... I'll go test that, actually, smarter than asking ;)
[20:22] <sirninja> fake51: I'm not sure what the ideal way to do that would be, but if you find out what X display it is, you can do the command "export DISPLAY=:0" or whatever the display is to make applications start on that display
[20:22] <Phu> even a suggestion on how to install experimental ip6tables modules would be good...
[20:22] <fake51> sirninja, thanks, I'll test that
[20:22] <sirninja> fake51: that command I just gave you should make it start on its main screen... maybe try changing :0 to :1 or something, but I'm not sure
[20:23] <mobasher> SharkWipf: what kernel did you upgrade to ?
[20:23] <SharkWipf> hmm, the newest? :)
[20:23] <SharkWipf> I didn't even see it, just standard update
[20:24] <jags> hey, anyone try any of these dj programs in linux, I see a long list of apps, anyone have a recommendation?
[20:24] <dwarder> mobasher: Phu: Ken8521: what do you use your virtual windows box for?
[20:24] <Phu> dwarder: trying out OSes that I don't want to install permanently.
[20:25] <Ken8521> dwarder, i use Linux as a host, but I test stuff in Vbox all the time.. the only "mainstay" in Vbox for me, is XP.. cuz i use it to sync my zune
[20:25] <mobasher> SharkWipf: hahaha...right...i think there is that problem out there cuz there are some changes in the kernel which is interconnected with gdm in newer kernels unlike old school 9.04 where gdm and kernel runs seperately
[20:25] <Atlantic777> What's the easiest way to get glib >= 2.25.9 and gtk+ >= 2.22?
[20:25] <mobasher> dwarder: for virutalization
[20:25] <cordoval> register animos77<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[20:26] <mobasher> dwarder: u can run multiple OS's on one PC (virtual OS)
[20:26] <cordoval> how do I register my nick?
[20:26] <zamba> cordoval: this is not #ubuntu-related
[20:26] <zamba> cordoval: /msg nickserv help
[20:27] <IdleOne> !register > cordoval
[20:27] <cordoval> yes but the nickserv is replaced with #ubuntu right?
[20:27] <Phu> cordoval: i wouldn't have thought so.
[20:27] <zamba> cordoval: read the private message
[20:27] <mobasher> SharkWipf: you may want to boot into the shell and try to do a gdm --reconfigure and see if it works..otherwize...go back to the solid kernel which works i would recommend and stick with stability
[20:28] <cordoval> ok sorry will read the private message
[20:28] <Phu> anyone available yet familiar with installing ip6tables targets?
[20:28] <SharkWipf> I can't even get to the shell, even with recov mode
[20:29] <dwarder> mobasher: well, what windows appl do you run in your box? are you satisfied with using it in virtual box?
[20:29] <james__> hello anyone here
[20:29] <james__> ?
[20:29] <ejv> !ask | james__
[20:29] <james__> can anyone help me
[20:29] <james__> ?
[20:29] <Ken8521> dwarder, why wouldn't you be?... it's just like running it on Windows?
[20:30] <mr_chris> Just had my first encounter with FloodBot. Spam problem lately?
[20:30] <ejv> no, just don't flood...
[20:30] <mobasher> dwarder: in virtualbox i'm running gentoo, mint, windows 7, windows xp, and debian...ahh yes if i'm running so many i must be satisfied :)
[20:30] <james__> I want to make my user account have full root privileges so I do not have to keep putting in my password to do things
[20:30] <james__> and so I dont have to keep typing "sudo"
[20:30] <james__> I know the risks
[20:30] <ovy> new kernel, works great
[20:31] <Ken8521> james__, don't do that
[20:31] <james__> I want to please help me
[20:31] <ejv> james__: sudo vi /etc/sudoers
[20:31] <chrisdev> NO!!!
[20:31] <agentgasmask> Don't!
[20:31] <dwarder> mobasher: :)
[20:31] <erry> I'm trying to fix filesystem folders on a fat32 disk and heres what it does http://pastebin.com/gBx070CW doesn't seem to fix anything
[20:31] <mobasher> dwarder: ;-)
[20:31] <erry> i used fsck.vfat^
[20:32] <Ken8521> james__, if you're goin to just enable "always on root" you might as well use Windows... you take away the very thing that makes Linux more secure
[20:32] <ejv> james__: uncomment  %group        ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
[20:32] <tweak> hi. i used a command to add a ppa. what is the reverse of that? a command to remove a ppa
[20:32] <ejv> james__: then save and try to escalate local priveleges
[20:33] <Ken8521> tweak, just look in system/admin/software sources.. then click the "other software" tab... you shoudl be able to tell what repository it is you added, highlight it and click remove....
[20:33] <mobasher> tweak: http://bigbrovar.aoizora.org/index.php/2010/01/10/how-to-safely-remove-ppa-repository-from-ubuntu/
[20:33] <james__> how do I escalate privs?
[20:33] <ejv> james__: just `sudo -i`
[20:33] <Ken8521> ejv, you really shouldn't be telling him how to do this.
[20:33] <ejv> james__: im essentially telling you to test it
[20:33] <ejv> Ken8521: and why not?
[20:33] <Ken8521> ...
[20:33] <mr_chris> james__: That's fine if it's just you. Just please don't do this if you install Ubuntu for others.
[20:34] <james__> Alright I did that but it still isnt letting me doing things without typing in sudo first
[20:34] <ejv> Ken8521: there's a perfectly plausible reason to do it
[20:34] <mobasher> james__: just do sudo su
[20:34] <erry> help someone plz
[20:34] <erry> :(
[20:35] <erry> james__, sudo -i
[20:35] <james__> theres more to it...
[20:35] <ejv> james__: what group is your user in? %group could be %admin or %wheel or %whatever
[20:35] <mobasher> erry: whas up
[20:35] <Dynetrekk> hi. I've got a xubuntu box behind my adsl modem. how can I give the xubuntu box a fixed ip? (typically <IP_ADDRESS>)
[20:35] <james__> james
[20:35] <erry> mobasher, i explained few lines up
[20:35] <james__> I and I did that
[20:35] <erry> 14:34 < erry> I'm trying to fix filesystem folders on a fat32 disk and heres what it does http://pastebin.com/gBx070CW doesn't seem to fix anything
[20:35] <ejv> james__, hmm not sure what you're doing wrong then
[20:35] <mr_chris> Dynetrekk: Either set it based on your mac address in your router or do as this says http://codesnippets.joyent.com/posts/show/319
[20:35] <james__> hmm alright
[20:35] <james__> thanks anyways
[20:36] <mobasher> erry: sorry buddy not my cup of tea :)
[20:36] <agentgasmask> Dynetrekk: Fixed as in static for the LAN?
[20:36] <erry> :(
[20:36] <ejv> james__: verify the membership of your user, verify that you edited /etc/sudoers correctly.
[20:36] <ejv> james__: then logout and log back in, and test escalating.
[20:36] <mr_chris> Dynetrekk: After you make the change either enter "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" or just reboot to make it take effect.
[20:37] <Dynetrekk> agentgasmask: static for the LAN sounds right
[20:38] <agentgasmask> Dynetrekk: you need to edit the /etc/network/interfaces file to use a static ip, ie. not request one from the DHCP server on your router/modem. I'll see if I can find an easy how-to real quick...
[20:39] <ejv> just tossing this out there, but in the spirit of support when someone comes in here saying they understand the risks of lifting a certain protection mechanism, just tell them how to do it, don't tell them the risks when they know it's risky... that just aggravates people... lol
[20:40] <Phu> anyone available yet familiar with installing ip6tables targets?
[20:40] <mobasher> ejv: lol
[20:40] <ejv> </end rant>
[20:40] <akoimeexx> Hey all. I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 server on a powerpc, and I've been trying to get it to run sound through the speaker in the case (Not the PC 'beep' speaker). However, mpg321 and mpg123 refuse to play, citing a sound error. Looks like libao isn't installed and isn't available, but libao2 is (and s installed by default). Any thoughts?
[20:40] <akoimeexx> Ish, block 'o text. >.o
[20:41] <TomatoIN> Hello! I am trying to install ubuntu on a VAIO. But the CD cannot boot.. what is wrong?
[20:41] <ejv> TomatoIN: you played with the BIOS and enabled booting from the CD?
[20:41] <bobstro> ejv:  there was a  guy two days ago who'd done similar and had been rooted. he was blaming ubuntu for not being as secure as claimed.
[20:41] <mobasher> TomatoIN: check the boot settings of the vaio to see if it's booting off the CD or maybe your Cd didn't get burned properly
[20:42] <TomatoIN> ejv, yes I did but nothing
[20:42] <TomatoIN> mobasher, the CD is fine burned
[20:42] <ejv> TomatoIN: hmm dunno, just mentioned the obvious :)
[20:42] <mobasher> TomatoIN: well either u boot or either you don't there is not third option to it
[20:42] <bobstro> ejv:  i basically agree with our sentiment, but a few 'are you sure's are a good thing.
[20:42] <ejv> bobstro: sure :)
[20:43] <TomatoIN> ejv, mobaster thank you both :)
[20:43] <mobasher> TomatoIN: no worries mate :)
[20:43] <bobstro> ejv:  will those sudoer changes affect the gui apps?
[20:44] <AndChat|> Tomato. No external drives plugged in? No phone? No thumb drive?
[20:44] <andrewaclt> What's the current kernel in lucid?
[20:44] <mobasher> AndChat|: he's gone homes :)
[20:44] <Pici> !info linux | andrewaclt
[20:44] <ejv> bobstro: i'm assuming his instance of his desktop manager is running as his normal user, so i'd say, no, marginal impact at best.
[20:44] <zax1> probably not the place... but has any one heard about the ACS: Law story ? i am on the pirates bay and the torrent seem to be seeded but i can not download it. any one heard of any fight back ?
[20:44] <AndChat|> Phone typing is too slow ;)
[20:45] <erry> ;(
[20:45] <andrewaclt> Pici, Does it not have ubuntu specific patches?
[20:45] <erry> Anyone help me recover a folder
[20:45] <bobstro> ejv:  reason i'm asking is that normally sudo doesn't require re-auth until timeout, yet he says he was 'constantly' having to enter password.
[20:45] <Pici> !piracy | zax1
[20:45] <mobasher> AndChat|: lol...and even slower if you have an iphone lmao
[20:45] <Pici> andrewaclt: It does.
[20:46] <andrewaclt> Pici, so I should sudo apt-get linux if I want to revert my kernel?
[20:46] <zax1> pici you are quick to type not to understand
[20:46] <akoimeexx> Anyone have an idea on how to get libao set up on a Mac G4?
[20:46] <akoimeexx> Running 10.04 server?
[20:46] <bolat> Hey guys! Please give me some advice on where I can find driver for VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. CN700/P4M800 Pro/P4M800 CE/VN800 [S3 UniChrome Pro] (rev 01) ?
[20:46] <bolat> I want 3D
[20:46] <Pici> andrewaclt: That will pull in the current generic kernel image for your arch
[20:47] <Pici> zax1: Then what you're asking is offtopic, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[20:47] <ejv> bobstro: yea although when I'm running in screen, the auth doesn't follow seperate terminal instances, so having to constantly use sudo and auth can be a pain, im a power user though god knows what his setup was
[20:47] <TomatoIN> Hello again, updated question. When I try to boot from a CD on a VAIO the laptop starts reading the CD-ROM but after awhile it boots Windows. Why?
[20:47] <andrewaclt> Pici, I installed a mainline kernel to test some intel driver stuff. If I just install the old kernel will it automatically use the other installed kernel?
[20:48] <TomatoIN> I can hear the CD drive working
[20:48] <andrewaclt> Pici, *If I uninstall the new kernel
[20:48] <akoimeexx> CD might not have burned as bootable. What'd you burn it with?
[20:48] <ejv> TomatoIN: did you burn the image as a readable ISO?
[20:48] <akoimeexx> @TomatoIN
[20:48] <Pici> andrewaclt: You'll need to remove the mainline ppa and reinstall the linux-image package.
[20:48] <TomatoIN> ejv, yes and I also tried in another laptop and works fine. I also tried external CD drive and I get the same result with the particular VAIO
[20:48] <mattgyver> TomatoIN, is bios set to boot from CD, and the boot priority right?
[20:49] <ejv> TomatoIN: shake your fist at Sony :)
[20:49] <cyb3r3li0g> Erry if you are still arround, try running dosfsck in non-interactive mode (add a -y to your command), this should automatically deal with the issues you are seeing
[20:49] <TomatoIN> mattgyver, yes everything is set right
[20:49] <Phu> anyone available yet familiar with installing ip6tables targets?
[20:50] <ulrichard_> Hi guys, I wrote an application that runs fine when I run it from the commandline or a script. But if I try to run it from cron, I get this: "critical error : basic_string::_S_construct NULL not valid".
[20:50] <mattgyver> TomatoIN, maybe try a slower burn
[20:51] <AndyGraybeal> how do i find how fast my processor speed is?
[20:51] <TomatoIN> mattgyver, Ill try that since the boot CD cannot be seen when I boot on Windows.
[20:51] <TomatoIN> thank you all anyways.. Ill come back with udates :)
[20:51] <rusivi> AndyGraybeal the mfg website :)
[20:51] <Acetaminophen> hi! for some reason i can't upload this picture, and i think the ubuntu firefox addon has something to do with it? http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/8779/designerclothing.gif
[20:52] <Dynetrekk> AndyGraybeal: less /proc/cpuinfo
[20:52] <Dynetrekk> interestingly, my CPU speed reads lower than what I thought it was...
[20:52] <akoimeexx> Anyone have an idea how to get the libao driver installed on a PPC mac running Ubuntu 10.04?
[20:52] <AndyGraybeal> Dynetrekk: thank you
[20:53] <AndyGraybeal> Dynetrekk: awesome
[20:55] <Galaxor> Hi.  I wandered away for awhile.  I was asking about my usb hard drive hangs.  I've got a usb external enclosure.  New behavior is this:  It works for awhile and then hangs up.  Attempts to access the drive with such as ls will cause infinite hanging.  dmesg says this:  usb 2-3: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6.
[20:56] <gmaculo> how do i disable the default sorting of hidden files and case insensitivity in ls? -- also noticed command line regexp are also case insensitive.. how do i turn that crap off?
[20:56] <Galaxor> I don't know if this is a hardware or software issue.  I just upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04.  It's not the enclosure or the cable, cuz I just replaced both.  It still could be the plug I'm plugging into for power, or it could be the usb on the mobo.
[20:56] <jrib> gmaculo: what do you mean by "command line regexp are also case insensitive"?
[20:57] <Galaxor> I've tried googling, and I've found people complaining about the same issue 2-3 years ago, but could not extract useful advice out of these threads.
[20:57] <gmaculo> like when i do cp [a-f]* , it copies files starting with A-F also
[20:58] <xbonesx> anyone know why when you have a new cursor set, that it reverts back to the regular one when hovered over firefox?
[20:58] <alexlea> P-p-p-p-poker face p-p-p-poker face
[20:58] <gmaculo> ---on ext3, not fat
[20:58] <bobstro> Galaxor:  is it bus powered?
[20:59] <glebihan> xbonesx: probably because firefox sets it own cursor
[20:59] <joajimenez> Anyone here hates Gwibber?
[20:59] <Galaxor> bobstro:  No, it's got an AC adaptor.  When I switched the enclosure, I switched the adaptor also.  So if there's a power problem, it's at the wall.
[20:59] <glebihan> !ot | joajimenez
[20:59] <erUSUL> gmaculo: should not happen by default. you tweaked your bash init files
[20:59] <odb|fidel> hi
[20:59] <jrib> gmaculo: that's globbing, not regexp.  I didn't know that was enabled by default, what does this return: shopt nocaseglob
[21:00] <odb|fidel> running 10.04 here and wondering about the following dialog: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/223435/public_trash/20100928_%202156_ss.jpg
[21:00] <nemchik> question: is the mono runtime actually useful for anything an average user would do?
[21:00] <gmaculo> says on...
[21:00] <odb|fidel> i assume my preferences (never, nothing, never) should end up in never seeing this dialog
[21:00] <bobstro> Galaxor:  could it be the drive itself? i actually did have two usb adapters (enclosures) die on me on the same day once, but that's unlikely.
[21:00] <jrib> gmaculo: turn it off I suppose.  What version of ubuntu is this?
[21:00] <odb|fidel> while this dialog appears from time to time ...is that a known behaviour on ubuntu?
[21:00] <odb|fidel> i do run updates from cli daily
[21:00] <gmaculo> 10.04
[21:01] <Galaxor> bobstro:  Could be.  I did an fsck and it came up clean, but ... can I do smart over the usb?  Or does that depend on the enclosure?
[21:01] <xbonesx> glebihan: think so... ill look around in the firefox folders
[21:01] <bobstro> Galaxor:  not sure about smart. you could hook the drive up internally to test.
[21:02] <bobstro> Galaxor:  have you tried it on other computers?
[21:02] <gmaculo> doing the same regardless of that setting
[21:02] <gmaculo> :P
[21:02] <Galaxor> bobstro: No, that's a good idea.  I've got another computer right here.
[21:02] <jrib> gmaculo: pastebin a series of commands that shows that
[21:02] <Galaxor> bobstro: easier than opening the case.
[21:02] <bobstro> Galaxor:  i should have suggested that 1st.
[21:03] <Acidphase> hmm,
[21:03] <speedStick_> Hi, is it possible to mount a virtual host directory?
[21:03] <Acidphase> /dev/dsp: No such file or directory
[21:03] <Acidphase> any idea's ?
[21:03] <bobstro> Galaxor:  that's similar to behavior i see when i use my power-hungry 2.5 inch usb enclosure without external power.
[21:03] <Acidphase> (trying to run UT99)
[21:04] <guntbert> !enter | Acidphase
[21:04] <bobstro> Galaxor:  and you did replace the usb cable too, right?
[21:04] <Galaxor> bobstro: Yeah, new cable.
[21:05] <odb|fidel> anyone regarding the software-update notification issue i mentioned?
[21:05] <guntbert> Acidphase: what is UT99 ?
[21:05] <Acidphase> /dev/dsp: No such file or directory : Running Unreal Tournament
[21:05] <guntbert> odb|fidel: please rephrase it in one line - its hard to read it if it is spread across the page :-)
[21:06] <odb|fidel> guntbert: k
[21:06] <odb|fidel> what might cause this dialog? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/223435/public_trash/20100928_%202156_ss.jpg (10.04)
[21:07] <odb|fidel> personaly i would assume the setting (never/nothing/neveR) should prevent such gui notifications
[21:07] <VCoolio> odb|fidel: isn't there something in startup applications that causes this?
[21:07] <odb|fidel> out of the box yes- not here
[21:08] <gmaculo> jrib: http://pastebin.com/C7tY77FD
[21:08] <Galaxor> bobstro: Okay, I've got the drive plugged into the other computer.  It's not entirely deterministic, so it might take awhile to determine whether I experience this problem.
[21:08] <aroman> Hey guys, somehow a package (the maverick light themes PPA for lucid) got messed up on my 10.04.1 desktop. The important information is here, also with the result of the suggestion resolution commands. http://paste.ubuntu.com/502293/ Thanks SO MUCH!
[21:08] <odb|fidel> VCoolio: on a new 10.04 install yes-  while i deselected that user startup item already. So no in my case
[21:08] <Galaxor> bobstro: If it turns out to work on this computer, what should I do?  The other computer is also running Ubuntu 10.04.
[21:08] <jrib> gmaculo: this shows me nothing...
[21:09] <bobstro> Galaxor:  is there another hub on your motherboard? other ports to try?
[21:09] <odb|fidel> VCoolio: it just appears from time to time and my impression is that its related with additional ppas i added
[21:09] <bobstro> Galaxor:  perhaps it's a speed issue?
[21:09] <VCoolio> odb|fidel: adding ppas alone doesn't cause extra action
[21:10] <odb|fidel> VCoolio: thats why i am wondering
[21:10] <Galaxor> bobstro: Plugged into mobo are keyboard, mouse, and hub I'm not using.  Hub is built into the monitor.  When I have the drive plugged into this computer, it's plugged straight into the mobo.
[21:10] <odb|fidel> VCoolio: i do run manually almost daily in cli - so i really dont get why those notification appear at all
[21:10] <bobstro> Galaxor:  sorry, which is it plugged into when NOT working?
[21:10] <gmaculo> jrib: ideally, it is supposed to sort with . first, caps next, then lowercase. the cp [a-z]* test2 is ONLY supposed to copy files starting with lowerase
[21:10] <jrib> gmaculo: you need to show the nocaseglob setting, then run some simple command that shows it globbing with case insensitivity or whatever
[21:11] <Kage> everyone remember to add this line to their .bashrc file:   alias MotherMayI=sudo
[21:11] <cellardoor> I used to have Starcraft 2 running perfectly with Wine, but now it refuses to patch and I cannot save modified registery entries such as VideoMemorySize without it being removed next time I run wine. Any wine users here able to help?
[21:11] <Galaxor> bobstro: When it's not working, it's plugged straight into the mobo.
[21:11] <VCoolio> odb|fidel: I don't know; if it happesns again find out what process is behind it and search from there
[21:11] <jrib> gmaculo: we're talking about globbing not sorting
[21:11] <Galaxor> bobstro: Now, I've got the drive plugged into my laptop, and not this computer.
[21:12] <xbonesx> is there a config file for mozilla firefox?
[21:12] <bobstro> Galaxor:  sometimes there are different controllers for front & rear ports. if the onboard usb hub isn't up to snuff, it might cause problems with high-speed devices whilst working ok with low speed.
[21:12] <odb|fidel> VCoolio: k - i was just wondering if anyone else realized that behaviour
[21:12] <bobstro> xbonesx:  about:config
[21:12] <Galaxor> bobstro: I have one more port in the desktop's mobo that I could try.  I could also unplug the hub I'm not using.
[21:12] <xbonesx> bobstro: huh?
[21:12] <bobstro> Galaxor:  if it's a powered enclosure, you *should* be ok, but worth a shot.
[21:12] <odb|fidel> VCoolio: it just happens on 1 of my 10.04 installations - so its not a default thing ;)
[21:12] <gmaculo> ugh. nevermind ..
[21:12] <jrib> gmaculo: why?
[21:12] <bobstro> xbonesx:  to configure firefox. enter in the url bar.
[21:12] <Galaxor> bobstro: I've been plugging this straight into the back of the computer.
[21:13] <aroman> How to resolve: Depends: gconf2 (>= 2.28.1-2) but 2.28.1-0ubuntu1 is installed
[21:13] <VCoolio> odb|fidel: sorry, I never saw it or disabled it without remembering
[21:13] <bobstro> Galaxor:  understood. powered enclosure shouldn't require much from mobo, but worth reducing load on it to test.
[21:13] <xbonesx> bobstro: wow, thanks a lot
[21:13] <gmaculo> i just want my commands to work correctly. if i wanted my system ase insensitive, i'd use fat
[21:13] <akoimeexx> So, I even tried building libao from source and installing. Still a no-go on this server I'm fiddling with. Anyone have experience with Ubuntu on ppc systems?
[21:13] <bobstro> xbonesx:  was playing with it last night.
[21:14] <guntbert> VCoolio: you said: "find out what process is behind it..." -- how can you do that?
[21:14] <xbonesx> bobstro: see anything about the mouse that is set by firefox, if there even is one?
[21:14] <LordDragon> anyone know a img sharing site that doesnt scale the image?
[21:14] <bobstro> xbonesx:  i'm not aware of anything, but i haven't really looked.
[21:14] <bobstro> xbonesx:  though... i did have strangeness with cursor changing a while back. is that your issue?
[21:15] <VCoolio> guntbert: something like ps -ef | grep update/apt/notifier whatever, or maybe xprop knows something
[21:15] <xbonesx> bobstro: yesir
[21:15] <VCoolio> guntbert: I have e17, it has an option to see what process is behind the window, very convenient
[21:15] <guntbert> VCoolio: e17?
[21:15] <bobstro> xbonesx:  ah. i can only tell you that i found the answer via google. i honestly don't remember what the issue was, but it was a quick fix.
[21:16] <VCoolio> guntbert: enlightenment, you know, the awesome window manager that has released alpha after ten years
[21:16] <Galaxor> bobstro: Hm.  I don't think I was loading it heavily.  I was playing mp3s off of there, one at a time.  I don't know if it's dropping out when I'm not playing mp3s off of there.
[21:16] <guntbert> VCoolio: :-)
[21:17] <bobstro> Galaxor:  i think you're in the realm of hardware puzzles. it should "just work" if power is sufficient.
[21:17] <bobstro> Galaxor:  just for fun, try it off the hub?
[21:17] <xbonesx> bobstro: well i figured out that if you put the folder with the images in the /usr/share/icons/ folder and then change your current mouse "cursor.theme" file too inherit=<the one you want> that it solves the mouse issue acrooss the board in gnome, but when above firefox it goes back to default
[21:17] <bobstro> xbonesx:  i wasn't even doing that much. just basic interface stuff.
[21:18] <Galaxor> bobstro: Yeah.  Could there be a kernel bug, though?  The biggest change recently was the update to 10.04.
[21:18] <LordDragon> hey im getting this weird quirk in the topbar in ubuntu 10.04. all my application icons have a white background instead of matching the bar. anyone know whats wrong? heres what it looks like http://i.imgur.com/Zugq1.jpg
[21:18] <bobstro> Galaxor:  maybe try booting off an older live cd and test?
[21:18] <LordDragon> i tried a reboot and its still there
[21:18] <bobstro> Galaxor:  other machine is 10.04 though, right? still, worth a check if it was ok before.
[21:18] <ldx> Can some one show me the steps to install EPIC ircii ?
[21:19] <xbonesx> bobstro: oh, you should see the mouse cursor im using, one sec ill get a link
[21:19] <akoimeexx> Let me broaden my question, does anyone know how to get sound working on 10.04 server, just in CLI?
[21:20] <mr_chris> akoimeex: sudo aptitude install alse
[21:20] <mr_chris> adjust with alsamixer
[21:20] <mr_chris> akoimeex: err, "sudo aptitude install alsa"
[21:20] <zamba> what is the configuration file style called used by dhcpd.conf?
[21:20] <tomtom34> what does the Disk Usage analyzer show in Ubuntu with usage column ?
[21:21] <tomtom34> it shows 100% usage in one folder, what does it mean ?
[21:21] <tomtom34> does it mean its used all its space allocated ? how can I expand that area ?
[21:21] <akoimeexx> mr_chris: Just installed and tested, still can't find a suitable libao driver.
[21:22] <xbonesx> bobstro: http://img801.imageshack.us/img801/7308/screenshot1plh.png
[21:22] <akoimeexx> Testing using mpg321
[21:22] <xbonesx> bobstro: thats my desktop and the cursor is in the middle
[21:22] <mr_chris> akiomeexx: You're on powerpc?
[21:22] <akoimeexx> mr_chris: Yes.
[21:22] <akoimeexx> The desktop is a G4.
[21:23] <mr_chris> akiomeexx: I have a little experience with that platform. I'm assuming an old Mac. What kind?
[21:23] <bobstro> xbonesx:  i'd lose that on my screen! you've seen these? http://howto.blbosti.com/2010/08/change-mouse-cursor-theme-in-ubuntu-with-compiz-enabled-10-04-and-higher/
[21:24] <cdose1> i have put the live cd onto a usb stick.  how do i remove the "install ubuntu" dialog which shows up at first?
[21:24] <akoimeexx> Power Macintosh G4
[21:24] <DrDamnit> I have an Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS server (fresh install) that I rebooted, and it is now stuck on
[21:24] <DrDamnit> fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16
[21:24] <DrDamnit> /dev/sda1: clean, 5760512/1546875221, and I cannot log in. It responds to CTRL+ALT+DEL, but nothing else. How do I fix this?
[21:24] <mr_chris> Sawtooth? Quicksilver?
[21:24] <The_Paco> hi, ubuntu servers tty seems to be midreading the size of my monitor, it cuts a couple characters off the end of long lines before wrapping. Where would I look to troubleshoot/fix that?
[21:24] <tomtom34> hello anyone
[21:24] <akoimeexx> mr_chris: Not sure I follow? Sawtooth or QuickSilver?
[21:25] <guntbert> VCoolio: thx for the hint about xprop - just what I asked for :-)
[21:25] <Galaxor> bobstro: True.  While we were talking, mp3s were playing off the drive hooked up to the laptop.  That's not a conclusive test, because there wouldn't necessarily have been a hangup during that time.  But now I put it in the hub.  We'll see if that changes anything.
[21:25] <odb|fidel> akoimeexx: ppc g4 models
[21:25] <akoimeexx> odb|fidel: Couldn't say offhand, Let me look it up. Mac's aren't my forte.
[21:25] <mr_chris> akiomeexx: There were a few different types of powermac G4s. They had nicknames like sawtooth and quicksilver. Is the case silver on the front or is it the blue kind with the pin stripe front?
[21:26] <odb|fidel> akoimeexx: everymac.com should answer that
[21:26] <akoimeexx> Blue with pinstripes.
[21:26] <tensorpudding> the ubuntu ppc port isn't officially supported is it?
[21:26] <bobstro> Galaxor:  good luck!
[21:26] <mr_chris> akiomeez: Most likely a sawtooth then. Could you please fill me in on what you've tried already to get sound working? Sorry for all the questions but I just want to be sure I'm helping you with the right thing.
[21:27] <rebirth> how do you insert a timestamp in tomboy notes?
[21:27] <DrDamnit>  I have an Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS server (fresh install) that I rebooted, and it is now stuck on "fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16 /dev/sda1: clean, 5760512/1546875221", and I cannot log in. It responds to CTRL+ALT+DEL, but nothing else. How do I fix this?
[21:28] <mr_chris> tensorpudding: No but it is still community supported and for the most part quite good.
[21:28] <odb|fidel> rebirth: there is a plugin/add-in for that in tomboy
[21:28] <mr_chris> At least it used to be last I checked.
[21:28] <akoimeexx> mr_chris: Well, up to this point I've tried building & installing libao from source, and installing alsa. I'm at a loss for what else to try. Google wasn't as helping as I wanted it to be.
[21:28] <ikonia> DrDamnit: I would boot from a livecd and manually fsck the file systems
[21:28] <DrDamnit> ikonia: once it clears the "I need to run fsck" flag, it will boot normally? What about 31 boots from now?
[21:29] <ikonia> DrDamnit: that should work
[21:29] <akoimeexx> I've tried grepping to find out where libao2 is located, but couldn't find it. Couldn't locate it either, even though it's reported installed.
[21:29] <Galaxor> bobstro: Aha.  We have a dropout here in the hub now.
[21:29] <DrDamnit> I'll try that.
[21:29] <rebirth> odb|fidel: i see i have it installed but i don't know how to use it
[21:29] <DrDamnit> ikonia: thanks.
[21:29] <mr_chris> akiomeex: Are you trying to use something that requires libao? Correct me if I'm wrong but normally libao is separate from the general sound working.
[21:29] <odb|fidel> rebirth: ctrl+l
[21:29] <akoimeexx> mr_chris: mpg321, in particular.
[21:30] <akoimeexx> mr_chris: Neither that nor mpg123 will work without libao, from what I've seen.
[21:30] <odb|fidel> should give you a timestamp - while personaly i would prefer defining an abbreviation in autokey (another app) ...as this abbreviation for a timestamp works everywhere  - not just in your tomboy notes thing
[21:30] <rebirth> odb|fidel: ctrl+l is to link to a new note
[21:30] <daniel> Elo
[21:30] <odb|fidel> rebirth: ctrl+d
[21:30] <adv_> i have one partition /. how can i move home/ to a different partition with all its data?
[21:30] <mr_chris> akiomeex: So let's go over the obvious things first. You have installed alsa, confirmed that the volume is turned up and unmuted, and tried the test with aplay?
[21:30] <odb|fidel> my fault
[21:30] <rebirth> odb|fidel: that's it
[21:30] <odb|fidel> rebirth: consider using AutoKey ;)
[21:30] <bobstro> Galaxor:  it may not mean much if that hub goes back to the same motherboard ports, but it was worth a shot.
[21:30] <LordDragon> hey guys, after selecting the recommended nvidia driver, i cant seem to turn on ANY desktop effects. i get the error "the composite extension is not avilable"
[21:31] <mr_chris> akoimeex: Also, what are you trying to do with sound on a server?
[21:31] <rebirth> odb|fidel: AutoKey?
[21:31] <bobstro> Galaxor:  any other hi-speed usb devices you can try off the motherboard?
[21:31] <akoimeexx> Yes. aplay reports audio open error: No such file or directory (in attempt to access audio hardware, I would guess.)
[21:31] <odb|fidel> rebirth: abbreviation & macro app
[21:31] <odb|fidel> rebirth: i.e. i defined ;dt for autoinserting the current time & date . that works everywhere - not just in tomboy
[21:31] <Galaxor> bobstro:  Good idea.  I've got a usb key in my pocket.
[21:32] <akoimeexx> Eventually it'll be headless, I want it to chime if someone in the office needs to start it back up for some reason
[21:32] <odb|fidel> rebirth: and just 1 example how autokey can solve you keystrokes ;)
[21:32] <odb|fidel> *safe*
[21:32] <CkhiKuzad> How exactly do I open a port on my system for a game, in this case Aleph One
[21:32] <akoimeexx> Chime when it's up and running again, I should say
[21:32] <mr_chris> akoimeex: Hmm. I'm stuck at this point. I happen to have an old sawtooth lying around. If you PM me your email address I can try an install and see what results I get.
[21:32] <mattbd> The_Paco: I think it might be your TERM variable in your .bashrc
[21:32] <rebirth> odb|fidel: save you mean? :-P
[21:33] <mr_chris> If you don't have it solved by then I'll send you what I find.
[21:33] <The_Paco> mattbd, I'll look for it, thanks
[21:33] <odb|fidel> rebirth: yep ...and now check it out ;)
[21:33] <Galaxor> bobstro: I have another test, too.  When the mp3-playing was working on the laptop, it was using totem.  On the desktop, it's always with Rhythmbox when it doesn't work.  I'm trying totem on the bad computer to see if it will also act good.  If it acts good, then that means that it didn't mean anything that it was working on the laptop.
[21:34] <erUSUL> CkhiKuzad: ubuntu has no firewall so if there is something listening in the port nothing will block it. you may have to configure nat on your router
[21:34] <bobstro> Galaxor:  i'd be surprised if the software accessing the drive made a difference, but it could be interesting if so.
[21:34] <rebirth> what's the dif between gtk and qt?
[21:34] <Galaxor> bobstro: Both use gstreamer to play the music, though, so I don't see how it could be different.
[21:34] <odb|fidel> rebirth: if you are running gnome - get the gtk build
[21:34] <bobstro> Galaxor:  you could also run some drive benchmarks on both computers for more 'raw' consistency and loading.
[21:34] <sjefen6> Is it possible to roll back the previus software update?
[21:35] <sjefen6> it borked my nvidia driver
[21:35] <CkhiKuzad> erUSUL, I'm using my modem now, rather than a router. for some reason whenever I connect to "Join Network game" on it, i'm the only one in the lobby. how do i listen on a certain port for connections?
[21:35] <bobstro> Galaxor:  and don't forget to try a live cd on the 'broken' computer.
[21:35] <erUSUL> rebirth: many  i will mention one --> gtk is a C API the qt is for C++
[21:35] <akoimeexx> Thanks, guys, for the help. I'm off to reset a router. =p
[21:35] <bobstro> Galaxor:  a usb card for the desktop should be cheap if you narrow it down to the motherboard
[21:35] <dwarder> in my system->preferences->appearance i've set not to use AA, but i still have it in my firefox, why?
[21:36] <tomtom34> what does Usage column of the Disk Usage analyzer mean ?
[21:36] <odb|fidel> rebirth: Users of KDE should install autokey-qt. Users of GNOME should install autokey-gtk
[21:36] <mattbd> The_Paco: Try putting export TERM=xterm-256color in your .bashrc and see if that resolves the issue.
[21:36] <Galaxor> bobstro: Ooh.  Is there a good benchmark program I could use?
[21:36] <dwarder> AA == font rendering
[21:36] <xbonesx> bobstro: so i undid the changes that i had made for the cursor then tried step one and then did step two in that link you gave me and now the cursor works across the board thanks a lot
[21:36] <dwarder> i set it to monochrome
[21:37] <The_Paco> mattbd, cool, trying that now
[21:37] <bobstro> Galaxor:  Administration->Disk Utility has one
[21:37] <TomTom34> what does Usage column of the Disk Usage analyzer mean ?
[21:37] <bobstro> xbonesx:  glad to hear it. but now they're the old cursors, right?
[21:37] <noel_g> I had a system get hung during login.  I restarted gdm using service gdm restart , and got the system to become responsive, but I can't login, what service do I need to restart to be able to log into the system (accessing the system via SSH)
[21:38] <bobstro> Galaxor:  it also has smart data, if available
[21:38] <xbonesx> bobstro: no i edited the commands in the link to point towards my custom one that i placed in /usr/share/icons/ folder
[21:39] <bobstro> Galaxor:  just hooked up my usb enclosure. no smart data, but benchmark is there.
[21:39] <bobstro> Galaxor:  run benchmark on usb to see if maybe speed issue?
[21:39] <bekks> hi
[21:40] <dwarder> how do i disable aa for FF
[21:40] <dwarder> firefo
[21:40] <dwarder> x
[21:40] <TomTom34> hello
[21:40] <TomTom34> can anyone hear me
[21:40] <bekks> using 10.04 server, and screen with just two shells open, it appears that screen has more than one screen buffer, which makes it impossible to scroll withing, without switching the buffer.
[21:41] <TomTom34> am I still invisible
[21:41] <bekks> how can i set screen to have just one buffer, for not having to switch buffers anymore?
[21:41] <erUSUL> TomTom34: no
[21:41] <rebirth> TomTom34: we can see you, stop flooding the channel
[21:41] <TomTom34> ok thanks god
[21:41] <erUSUL> !ask | TomTom34
[21:41] <The_Paco> mattbd, well, that didn't work it seems, unless I need to restart completely rather than logging out
[21:41] <erUSUL> bekks: i do not understand what you mean by « switch buffers » ...
[21:42] <Galaxor> bobstro:  Running benchmark, thanks.  Also, it looks like I've got partial smart data through here.  I couldn't get anything from smartctl, but maybe I just didn't have the right args.
[21:42] <Galaxor> bobstro: The partial smart data I got looked good.
[21:42] <TomTom34> what does the Usage column in the Disk Usage analyzer mean. I have a folder that shows 100% usage and its 80gigs, the folder is a database of an application, now that I want to upload some documents to the database its not allowing it to, I have 8 gig left in my 700gig hard drive, please help
[21:43] <mattbd> The_Paco:No, if it worked you should be able to log back in and see the effect immediately. Are you physically in front of the machine or are you accessing it via SSH?
[21:43] <erUSUL> TomTom34: 5% of space is reserved for root
[21:43] <Galaxor> bobstro: The read benchmark went through without dropping out the drive.
[21:43] <The_Paco> hmp... I typed ". ~/.bashrc" and now I have ";user@host:~user@host:~$" prefacing each line. Any way to unscrew that?
[21:43] <sirecat> Need some help getting vinagre to connect. I have installed tightvnc server as well. I can use the default terminal server client, I am prompted for a password, then I connect to my host(win7). The opposite is true of vinagre I tell it to connect to the ip address and it comes back with a connection closed message. Anyone help?
[21:43] <TomTom34> erUSUL, so 8 gigs not enough for uploading any data ?
[21:43] <The_Paco> mattbd, I'm physically in front of it
[21:44] <Ichat> TomTom,34 - ALSO  it might be that its a userquota (check that if wil).
[21:44] <TomTom34> erUSUL, if 5% is for root, then there should be 35gig free ?
[21:44] <bekks> erUSUL: it is described in here: http://jmcpherson.org/screen.html in the paragraph "Copying, pasting, and the scrollback buffer"
[21:44] <Galaxor> bobstro: I dunno.  I'll keep meddling, working under the theory that this is a hardware issue.  I'll try to rule it out.  I like the idea of the rescue disk.  I might have to wait till tomorrow to do that, though.
[21:45] <TomTom34> erUSUL, the drive is 700 gig
[21:45] <Ichat> TomTom34:   not entirly - because  of that  35 gb - root might stil have some files that where chowned to it.   so
[21:45] <The_Paco> mattbd, I'm able to adjust the monitor a bit to fit all the characters, but it still cuts them partially off on both sides (old monitor, can't adjust more). It just needs to be one character per line narrower
[21:45] <Mike_Flip> hi I'm trying to get Bluetooth working on my acer aspire 5000
[21:45] <Ichat> that wil go off your  35gb
[21:45] <mattbd> The_Paco: I take it you aren't running a graphical desktop?
[21:45] <The_Paco> nope, ubuntu server
[21:46] <erUSUL> bekks: i do not see the problem each screen has its own scroll buffer as it should
[21:46] <The_Paco> first time any linux hasn't automagically accommodated my odd monitors, so I've never even had to think about what goes into it
[21:46] <erUSUL> TomTom34: what error do you get when you try to copy the data?
[21:46] <bekks> erUSUL: i am used to screen which allows scrolling with shift+PGUP/DOWN without having to enter copy mode first.
[21:47] <Ichat> tomtom -  you could try and tweak yourself some extra data.  but  the easy way would just bit to  either add a new disk or to   delete some 'unused' stuff
[21:47] <cdose1> how do i change kernel boot options in 10.04?
[21:47] <mattgyver> cdose1, you can press E in grub to edit, or edit /etc/default/grub and run update-grub when finished
[21:47] <cdose1> mattgyver: thanks
[21:48] <drdeeps> My audio just randomly died
[21:48] <drdeeps> Yay!
[21:48] <TomTom34> erUSUL, its something else, says cannot upload data
[21:48] <mattgyver> drdeeps, congratulations your a winner!
[21:48] <erUSUL> bekks: http://www.debianhelp.org/node/4726
[21:48] <ZykoticK9> mattgyver, do you happen to know, using the E with grub - does that only apply that single boot, or are those changes permanent?
[21:48] <mattgyver> ZykoticK9, only a single boot.
[21:48] <drdeeps> What do I win!?
[21:49] <erUSUL> ZykoticK9: only to a boot
[21:49] <mattgyver> drdeeps, a fresh copy of windows 7!!
[21:49] <ZykoticK9> mattgyver, erUSUL thanks guys
[21:49] <drdeeps> But it

[21:49] <l0de> Hi, I'd like to request that users and operators from this channel please stop spamming our small mom+pop irc network. It really is very disruptive.
[21:49] <king313> hello :)
[21:49] <mattbd> I think the framebuffer may be what's responsible for the issue you're having
[21:50] <erUSUL> TomTom34: and you are sure is becouse of space issues? may be some other error with that "something else"
[21:50] <The_Paco> mattbd, okay, will read them now, thanks

[21:50] <king313> can anyone tell me about minimal distributions of ubuntu? Im just searcing few names
[21:50] <drdeeps> copy + paste works best
[21:51] <kphillips> @king313 what are you looking for?
[21:51] <maedox> Why do I always get the same spam check? It's kind of defeating the purpose.
[21:51] <adv_> erUSUL, is that related how?
[21:51] <Mike_Flip> kubuntu and xubuntu
[21:51] <erUSUL> adv_: remastersys does what you want afaik
[21:51] <blenderer> is there something for gnome panel to tell me what language keyboard settings i'm using
[21:51] <king313> I need an ubuntu distribution for a netbook, simple, not including lot of programs, usable...
[21:52] <bekks> erUSUL: thank you!
[21:52] <TomTom34> erUSUL, I want to know how this disk usage thing mean, is it reserved space by the OS, can it be expanded, now it shows 100% full
[21:52] <tensorpudding> king313: Ubuntu Netbook edition
[21:53] <nerdystudmuffin> I'm having trouble. I just installed Karmic clean and installed the LAMP server
[21:53] <king313> tensorpudding, is it paralel update with latest versions?
[21:53] <mattbd> king313: +1 Ubuntu netbook edition
[21:53] <nerdystudmuffin> Made config changes and such but for some reason curl is not working in CLI or mod_php
[21:53] <mattbd> king313: Works really well on my Dell Mini 10v
[21:53] <The_Paco> woah
[21:53] <king313> tensorpudding, mattbd thanks
[21:53] <nerdystudmuffin> I've tried everyting both phpinfo()'s show that curl is enabled
[21:54] <king313> mattbd, I actually need it for a latidude x1
[21:54] <nerdystudmuffin> There are no PHP errors generated in either environment

[21:55] <Mike_Flip> hi I'm trying to get Bluetooth working on my acer aspire 5000. the bluetooth applet from the system menu says no adapter present. there is a hardware button to able/disable it but no effect
[21:55] <drdeeps> I'm thinking my sound card died...
[21:55] <mattbd> king313: I've always had good results with Dell hardware on Ubuntu, my Studio 15 and my Mini both work great with Lucid
[21:55] <The_Paco> restarting fixed that
[21:56] <ehcah> Does anyone know of an app to customize the imon lcd screen? Or, where the code is found?
[21:56] <king313> mattbd, great, I was actually thinking of using a fluxbox environment
[21:56] <erUSUL> TomTom34: i just fired up the disk use analizer. usage is the percent of the total space used that corresponds to each folder
[21:56] <king313> mattbd, what do you think?

[21:57] <martez89> Hi, my laptop (acer aspire 5542) keeps crashing when the CPU use is heavy. I already updated to the newest BIOS. I'm on 10.10.
[21:57] <martez89> Anyone else had this problem?
[21:57] <ikonia> martez89: 10.10 is unsupported
[21:57] <erUSUL> wpecker: /etc/pulse/daemon.conf ?
[21:57] <mattbd> king313: I've used Fluxbox and IceWM on netbooks before and both are good. Might want to consider Peppermint Ice or Crunchbang Linux too
[21:57] <ZykoticK9> king313, i used to be a fan of UNE (UNR really) but to not recommend it to people anymore.  If you are looking for something "minimal" you might want to check out lubuntu.
[21:57] <wpecker> (erUSUL): can you tell me the exact setting in there for it?
[21:57] <ikonia> martez89: you can discuss in the channel #ubuntu+1 but keep in mind it's unsupported
[21:58] <The_Paco> I'm for some reason displaying double prompts on each line... IE: ";user@host; ~user@host:~$" it happened after I typed in the command ". /.bashrc" anyone know how to undo that?
[21:58] <dwarder> where do i turn off  font AA in Firefox
[21:58] <martez89> ikonia thanks
[21:58] <wpecker> (erUSUL): because I looked in that file and found nothing for it

[22:00] <The_Paco> tensorpudding, I don't understand the question
[22:00] <TomTom34> and you can view it
[22:00] <mattbd> ZykoticK9:Personally I really like UNE, although Unity does look pretty cool
[22:00] <erUSUL> !screenshot
[22:00] <ZykoticK9> king313, i find UNE's Gnome to have too many restriction, i haven't played with Unity interface at all (default in 10.10 i believe).
[22:01] <tgywa> How can I generate a randome number ... if possible n number of random numbers ... in Ubuntu??
[22:01] <ZykoticK9> mattbd, i used to really like UNR for my old EEE 701 netbooks - but as versions went on, i liked it less and less (it's just personal opinion mind you)
[22:01] <drdeeps> Guys I'm still on 9.10 because for some reason 10.04 stopped appearing on boot up. It would come up to the login screen, i could hit enter, type my password and hit enter again and hear the login noise but no display. I had the driver installed for my graphics card and it stopped working I think. So I re-installed 9.10 cause it's the only disk I have, upgraded, and it stayed like that. I have the driver now for my graphics card, do you
[22:01] <drdeeps>  think it will still work if I upgrade to 10.04 in preparation for 10.10 or will the Upgrade Manager change the 10.04 upgrade to 10.10
[22:01] <wpecker> (erUSUL): the first option in the second tab there just turns the listening on an off, but I can't set it to listen only on local

[22:04] <ZykoticK9> drdeeps, just FYI but 10.04 will not by default upgrade to 10.10 (as Maverick is not an LTS release, obviously it's just a config change to allow the non-LTS version upgrade)
[22:04] <TomTom34> erUSUL, its only 100kb png image
[22:04] <erUSUL> wpecker: if you do not allow network access to local sound devices" you are setting it to listen only local
[22:05] <Gadgetwizard> Hello All
[22:05] <Dulak> you don't even have to change config files, just run 'update-manager -d' and it will give you the upgrade option to 10.10
[22:06] <drdeeps> Right, I realize I'll have to manually upgrade. But on 9.10 in the update manager it says 10.04 at the top. will that change to 10.10 when it is released so I can upgrade to 10.10 or do i have to go up to the semi-broken 10.04
[22:06] <ZykoticK9> Dulak, i'm refering to after maverick is release (an not in it's current devel stage)
[22:06] <wpecker> (erUSUL): if I uncheck that it doesn't listen at all?
[22:06] <cyberrider> Hi can someone help me with mergeing 2 po files?
[22:06] <Gadgetwizard> what are the new features with 10.10
[22:06] <erUSUL> wpecker: i expect so; yes
[22:07] <TomTom34> erUSUL, http://imagebin.org/116156
[22:07] <Dulak> ZykoticK9: works the same either way, update-manager -d will offer the upgrade either way, and is the 'correct' way to upgrade
[22:07] <dwarder> how do i put "close window" "maximaze window" and o
[22:07] <mattbd> tgywa: In the default version of Python in Ubuntu, it would be something like http://paste.ubuntu.com/502310/ to get a number between 1 and 10
[22:07] <dwarder> other button
[22:07] <dwarder> to the right side
[22:07] <dwarder> ?
[22:07] <ZykoticK9> Gadgetwizard, 10.10 discussion isn't actually allowed in this channel (you could as in #ubuntu+1 if you wanted), i was addressing the 10.04 upgrade issue only ;)
[22:07] <glebihan> drdeeps: you won't be able to upgrade directly from 9.10 to 10.10
[22:07] <wpecker> (erUSUL): then it's not useful because apps can't connect to it
[22:07] <drdeeps> Damn.
[22:07] <Gadgetwizard> oh ok
[22:07] <drdeeps> Oh well...
