[22:13] <[Esde]> ok NEW question....can i "Back-Up" my Ubuntu as it is now, put it all on my external hard drive, then reinstall Ubuntu as a true dual boot, and use the backup to restore the original configuration?
[22:13] <computa_mike> mgolisch : ahh - so that's what it's called... I was looking for vbnc...I shall install it now...
[22:13] <jonaskoelker> dn4: you don't; "/etc/init.d/gdm stop" kills gdm
[22:13] <computa_mike> easy win!
[22:13] <dn4> jonaskoelker: thanks
[22:13] <computa_mike> thanks
[22:13] <cllaudyu> I DONT HAVE SOUND! WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING????
[22:13] <jonaskoelker> Soul_Shadow: there should be two small squares in the upper right corner of your screen; are they there?
[22:14] <jonaskoelker> !capslock
[22:14] <jonaskoelker> !caps
[22:14] <Soul_Shadow> NO thats my shutdown button

[22:14] <[Esde]> Soul_Shadow: stop caps please.
[22:14] <jonaskoelker> Soul_Shadow: please post a screenshot of your desktop on imagehost
[22:14] <Soul_Shadow> Not kde not anything else Ubuntu 9.04
[22:15] <Daskreech> Soul_Shadow: lower right I think he means
[22:15] <ablert> sorry, I was afk mrwes, I wasn't sure if you had answered my question re: pinning a ppa
[22:15] <Soul_Shadow> my trash can

[22:15] <[Esde]> http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=331&order=desc&page=18 Daskreech my thread is on this page.
[22:15] <jonaskoelker> Daskreech: probably :)  I forget
[22:15] <cllaudyu> I DONT HAVE SOUND! i run tests on sound it works but in vlc or anything else is muted why is this happening?????
[22:15] <Soul_Shadow> my desktops but no options to change em
[22:15] <[Esde]> !caps
[22:15] <jonaskoelker> Soul_Shadow: if you right-click on them?
[22:15] <Daskreech> jonaskoelker: It's lower right on all the UNix DEs  I can think of except for CDE
[22:16] <Soul_Shadow> colums 2 rows 1
[22:16] <cllaudyu> all your troubles are capslock
[22:16] <jonaskoelker> Daskreech: yeah, but I reorganize...
[22:16] <Daskreech> soul change columns to 4
[22:16] <caimlas> cllaudyu, switch the output device. you probably have it wrongly defined, or the audio muted. use alsamixer to set levels/umute.
[22:16] <Soul_Shadow> oh thats stupid why not just call em what they are Desktops....
[22:16]  * Soul_Shadow steps on another Gnome running by
[22:17] <Soul_Shadow> evil gnomes
[22:17] <jonaskoelker> Soul_Shadow: well, they're organized in rows and columns... should they be called "desktops" and "desktops" instead?
[22:17] <LordQuackstar> I've got a small problem here: I made a usb boot cd for my computer, since it dosen't support booting directly to usb, and followed all the directions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB. However, its not persistant. All changes are lost when i restart. This is on an external hd on a partion ext3 formatted, made in windows with unetbootin. Am i doing something wrong?
[22:17]  * [Esde] so theres no answers..........
[22:17] <Daskreech> [Esde]: bump it
[22:17] <Stoffel> !de
[22:17] <LordQuackstar> (BTW, why is help.ubuntu.com on https?
[22:18] <Soul_Shadow> No they should be desktops only & pane rows
[22:18] <Daskreech> [Esde]: In Gnome they are called workspaces
[22:18]  * dent loves do-release-upgrade
[22:18] <carpii> LordQuackstar, try https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[22:18] <Daskreech> Unless it's Gnome 3. then they are called activites
[22:18] <carpii> I think the install to usb option is severely limited in what it persists
[22:18] <Soul_Shadow> ok then # of desktops & # of rows
[22:18] <[Esde]> Daskreech: whaaat?
[22:18] <carpii> so you need to do it differently to get a fully writeable system
[22:18] <[Esde]> i know what a workspace is....
[22:18] <LordQuackstar> carpii: trying...
[22:18] <Soul_Shadow> as do I
[22:19] <Daskreech> [Esde]: Add the new information that you have found and ask for more specific help. Any time you make a post in that thread it "bumps" it back to the front page so more people are likely to see it
[22:19] <Soul_Shadow> but I am looking for desktop amounts & rows colums says nothing about the desktops
[22:19] <Soul_Shadow> it specifies how many tows & colums for the window
[22:19] <[Esde]> Daskreech: i know about bumping, but what info am i adding?
[22:19] <Daskreech> [Esde]: oh sorry wrong person for workspaces
[22:19] <dbruynb> can someone plz help me with my display card drivers??
[22:19]  * Soul_Shadow beats gnome to death with the word KISS
[22:19] <Daskreech> Soul_Shadow: In Gnome they are called Worksaces unless you have Gnome 3 then they are called activities
[22:19] <jonaskoelker> Soul_Shadow: ah, so you want multiple desktops with multiple workspaces?
[22:20] <Daskreech> Soul_Shadow: Gnome is the beater of KISS
[22:20] <dn4> where can I get some wine version > 1.0.1 in jaunty
[22:20] <Soul_Shadow> dn4 why do u want wine?
[22:20] <jonaskoelker> dn4: I think "the internet" is a correct but also useless answer :)
[22:20] <[Esde]> !wine dn4
[22:20] <Daskreech> [Esde]: That your Wubi loader has gone wrong and you would like to either retireve your data from wubi install or fix the wubi loader.
[22:20] <Soul_Shadow> its easyer to resize partition & install a windos os in that partition
[22:20] <Soul_Shadow> then u got a menu to choose between em
[22:20] <rascal999> can virtualbox run amd64 iso's?
[22:20] <dn4> my system keeps locking up when I try to do env WINEPREFIX="/home/dn4/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files\Warcraft III\Frozen Throne.exe"
[22:21] <[Esde]> thx
[22:21] <Ryouga_Hibiki> so do you guys recommend WUBI?
[22:21] <lstarnes> rascal999: it should be able to if your host OS is 64-bit
[22:21] <rumpel> Ryouga_Hibiki, for beginners... why not?
[22:21] <rascal999> lstarnes: shiiiiiii
[22:21] <Soul_Shadow> Dn4 I suggest resize ur partition & make a ntfs partition with that extra space to play ur windows games
[22:21] <rumpel> Ryouga_Hibiki, less performance, less risk
[22:21] <jonaskoelker> !wine
[22:21] <Ryouga_Hibiki> err sorry I mean its fully funtioncal right?
[22:21] <Soul_Shadow> using wine & a game only cause your pc to lag & die
[22:21] <dn4> Soul_Shadow: um no but dually noted
[22:22] <rumpel> Ryouga_Hibiki, mostly
[22:22] <jonaskoelker> Soul_Shadow: my experience with wine has been pleasing...
[22:22] <lstarnes> dn4: is your home directory /home/dn4?
[22:22] <dn4> lstarnes: always
[22:22] <Soul_Shadow> so it takes me 30 sec to switch from windoews to linux
[22:22] <[Esde]> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7234395#post7234395  Daskreech better?
[22:23] <Titan8990> Soul_Shadow, you are giving windows too much credit on boot time there
[22:23] <Soul_Shadow> I use windows 7 & it boots fine 1 min to load
[22:23] <Soul_Shadow> but shutdown is fast from windows to linux 30 sec
[22:23] <lstarnes> dn4: then you could try wine "C:\Program Files\Warcraft III\Frozen Throne.exe"
[22:24] <[Esde]> Soul_Shadow: boot time is marginally greater for me on linux, but so far it is far more stable. pros>cons.
[22:24] <Titan8990> Soul_Shadow, one of my gentoo systems boots in < 20 secs
[22:24] <rumpel> boot time is only interesting, because you have to wait ^^
[22:24] <Soul_Shadow> I a mrunning a 2.5gig duel core with 2 gig ram 256mb video ram
[22:24] <Titan8990> lstarnes, that would never work
[22:24] <computa_mike> mgolisch: Hi mgolisch - I've tried everywhere to find VBNC or some variation in the repositories...
[22:24] <lstarnes> Titan8990: why not?
[22:24] <mgolisch> computa_mike: and?
[22:24] <dn4_> ok my alt+ctrl+f7 is totalled
[22:25] <Titan8990> lstarnes, wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Warcraft\ III/Frozen\ Throne.exe
[22:25] <computa_mike> mgolisch: oh - and I agree - .net totally does suck ... but the company I work for are still using VB5, and they think that VB.NET will be a smoother transition...
[22:25] <dn4_> I just tried to run wine in a terminal
[22:25] <rascal999> will the i386 iso of ubuntu server work on virtualbox i686?
[22:25] <Titan8990> lstarnes, C:\ is not a directory
[22:25] <lstarnes> rascal999: it shou;d
[22:25] <lstarnes> *should
[22:25] <mgolisch> computa_mike: hm dotnet rocks, but all vb languages sucks due to their weird syntax
[22:25] <Titan8990> lstarnes, above is the full path to wine's C:\ drive
[22:26] <mgolisch> :)
[22:26] <computa_mike> mgolisch: to fill you in further : no VBNC in the repositories.
[22:26] <mgolisch> computa_mike: it is for me, in the universe repo
[22:26] <mgolisch> in jaunty atleast
[22:26] <Soul_Shadow> why don't you just install xp as a secondary save u dys of greif
[22:26] <Titan8990> rascal999, i686 machines can handle 386 and 486
[22:26] <Soul_Shadow> days*
[22:26] <rascal999> lstarnes: ok, for some reason ubuntu.com gave me the amd64 iso. I should read url links
[22:26] <faryshta> How can I see rm videos?
[22:26] <jonaskoelker> faryshta: rm?
[22:26] <Soul_Shadow> bbs
[22:26] <rumpel> realplayer
[22:26] <jonaskoelker> ah
[22:27] <faryshta> .rm (real media).
[22:27] <jonaskoelker> mplayer?
[22:27] <ihasn> anyone know about postfix?
[22:27] <mgolisch> computa_mike: maybe its named differently before, or they use some old mono version where the vb.net part wasnt developed by an external party
[22:27] <computa_mike> mgolisch: I'm still in Ibex... I'll make sure Universe is enabled...  Sorry I tool so long getting back...  At least I know that the reason it won't compile is : there is no compiler...  Sort of a matrix style "there is no spoon" thing going on.
[22:27] <Titan8990> !realplayer
[22:27] <ihasn> !postfix
[22:27] <ablert> I'm looking to try to figure out how to pin a everything in a repo higher than the standard ubuntu repos - i've added an /etc/apt/preferences file
[22:27] <computa_mike> mgolisch: Personally - iprefer C# anyday.
[22:27] <jonaskoelker> faryshta: got a link to an .rm file?
[22:27] <faryshta> jonaskoelker, well I am using mplayer but only reads .rmvb videos (not .rm)
[22:27] <lstarnes> computa_mike: do you have build-essential installed?
[22:28] <ihasn> !MailServer
[22:28] <computa_mike> lstarnes: I thought build essentials was for proper c build environments, and not mono?
[22:28] <lstarnes> computa_mike: for c
[22:28] <ablert> but - I'm not sure what this line should read => Pin: release o=??
[22:28] <Shivam> how can i post a video on a vbulletin forum thread?
[22:28] <lstarnes> computa_mike: what about mcs and gmcs?
[22:29] <faryshta> jonaskoelker, yes but is a porno.... :) let me find one descent video.
[22:29] <jonaskoelker> faryshta: nvm
[22:29] <computa_mike> lstarnes: i'll have a look...
[22:29] <mgolisch> its c#
[22:29] <jonaskoelker> faryshta: unless you're afraid some stranger on the internet is going to learn what kind of sick porno you like looking at...
[22:29] <jonaskoelker> ;)
[22:29] <Titan8990> computa_mike, build essentials also contains things needed for all compiled binaries such as gnu make
[22:29] <Titan8990> computa_mike, aside from gcc/g++
[22:30] <computa_mike> lstarnes: i have them tagged for install but they don't support vb.net...
[22:30] <faryshta> jajaja jonaskoelker ok let me find the link. Will send it to you by PM.
[22:30] <jonaskoelker> :D
[22:31] <mgolisch> computa_mike: you might need to search for newer mono packages or maybe just build mono and related stuff from source
[22:31] <[biabia]> does linux have a built in program to save a text file as a pdf
[22:31] <computa_mike> lstarnes: As an asside, mgolisch said that s/he could see the mono-vbnc (which I think will be the compiler for vb.net) on the universe repository.  Is there some way I can check what repositories I have enabled?
[22:31] <mgolisch> shouldnt be too hard
[22:31] <lstarnes> computa_mike: graphically, or via the terminal?
[22:31] <mgolisch> computa_mike: i checked on packages.ubuntu.com, intrepid doenst seem to have that
[22:32] <rumpel> [biabia], try to print it into a pdf...
[22:32] <computa_mike> mgolisch: I am planning to upgrade to Jaunty - so that should (in theory) solve that problem
[22:32] <ablert> if anyone wants the answer: turns out, if you want to pin a repo (say a ppa repo) the preferences line is: Pin: release o=LL-PPA-$ppa_id (you can find your $ppa_id in /ppa/ubuntu/dists/hardy/Release
[22:32] <mgolisch> computa_mike: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mono/+bug/129524
[22:32] <jonaskoelker> ;)
[22:32] <[biabia]> rumpel thanks i'll try that
[22:33] <Slart> [biabia]: I think there is a ascii2pdf  ... not sure if it's installed by default though
[22:34] <Espasmodico> niggers
[22:34] <computa_mike> mgolisch: Infact I feel rather bad for not upgrading almost instantly - I upgrade my brother's laptop from windows to Ibex, and he had upgraded himself all on his own without me having to prompt him.  Can I upgrade from the live CD?  If I boot from the live CD and install will it wreck my current install, or is it just best to let it dist-upgrade?
[22:35] <tom_de_tom> anyone know any install which puts a graph on the menu or like a side bar that shows cp usuage etc?
[22:35] <neoteny> got this zen media player.  when i plug it in rythmbox fires up and nautilus shows it's mounted.  but from the command line i can cd to where nautilius say it is: gphoto2://[usb:001,004]/  what's the magic involved in cding there?
[22:35] <tom_de_tom> bit like system monitor but in a bar or near the clock in ubuntu
[22:35] <mgolisch> computa_mike: i think you can only upgrade using the alternatecd but i might be wrong
[22:35] <Mew-Chan> i installed an eggdrop on a remote server, can i install ftp via aptitude to access those files (and if so how would do i do that) a lot of FTP results show up when i search for FTP
[22:35] <kkrusty> is there a different "development version of the python package" than what is available by default in jaunty?
[22:35] <mgolisch> computa_mike: but maybe you can use the livecd as a installation source too
[22:35] <Dr_Willis> tom_de_tom:  theres numerous monitoring tools like that, conky is one, gkrellm is another.
[22:35] <mgolisch> never tried that, i allways reinstall
[22:35] <hardcockoncam> ZBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
[22:35] <tom_de_tom> Dr_Willis: cheers
[22:35] <Dr_Willis> tom_de_tom:  proberly otehrs  - check the package manager
[22:36] <computa_mike> mgolisch: an interesting idea - I'll try it.
[22:36] <lupine_85> Mew-Chan, proftpd or pureftpd for the daemon, set it up to serve wherever the eggdrop is
[22:36] <lupine_85> personally, I'd just use sftp
[22:36] <lupine_85> if you've got ssh working, it "just works" too
[22:36] <faryshta> jonaskoelker, link sended.
[22:37] <V0iD__> could anyone tell me how to set gparted to use ext4 on hardy !
[22:37] <subspider> how do i know if my graphic card is installed??
[22:37] <hardcockoncam> HI
[22:37] <computa_mike> mgolisch: thanks for all the help - I just popped over to the pidgin forum becuase I was having such a terrible time trying to type users names, and they clued me in on the Tab auto complete function.  I feel like I've taken my first steps into a a larger world.
[22:37] <pronik`> hello, has anyone experienced system stalling for a couple of minutes on jaunty?
[22:37] <pepperjack> subspider: what card? nvidia or ati or intel?
[22:37] <subspider> intel
[22:37] <pepperjack> pronik`: id investigate turning off indexing maybe
[22:37] <pronik`> it's happening every so often (four times this evening)
[22:38] <Slart> V0iD__: for some filesystems you have to install a package before they show up in gparted.. ntfstools for ntfs support is one such example
[22:38] <jonaskoelker> faryshta: downloading...
[22:38] <mgolisch> computa_mike: hehe
[22:38] <seventje> pepperjack: can query you ? things are going from bad to worse :p
[22:38] <lupine_85> pronik`, anything in dmesg ?
[22:38] <hmaader> pronik`: you could run top and "vmstat 1" while its stalling
[22:38] <pronik`> pepperjack: I doubt it's the indexing (it's disabled anyway AFAIK) since overloading would cause the beep to hang for example
[22:38] <pepperjack> subspider: lsmod command in terminal see if intel module shows up.  you can also just run glxgears and see if it runs ok
[22:38] <V0iD__> Slart: I know but cant I get a package from jaunty
[22:38] <pronik`> it seems connected to the disk activity somehow -- all disk reading/writing stall in that time too
[22:38] <subspider> ok thnks
[22:39] <faryshta> Soo... anyone else have information why .rmvb videos work but .rm videos doesn't?
[22:39] <pronik`> lupine_85: nothign in dmesg
[22:39] <pronik`> hmaader: I'll try that, can't be long till it hangs again
[22:39] <Dr_Willis> pronik`:  next time it happens check the output of the 'dmesg' command its possible a hard drive is going out.
[22:39] <lupine_85> probably not I/O stalling then
[22:39] <computa_mike> pronik`: are you running etx3 or ext4?
[22:39] <pronik`> ext3
[22:39] <jonaskoelker> When I close my laptop, the external monitor (my tv) turns off.  How do I make it stop turning off?
[22:39] <Slart> V0iD__: in jaunty efs2progs handles ext2/3/4 .. not sure if that's what is needed for gparted
[22:39] <lupine_85> hardy won't have support in the kernel, amirite?
[22:39] <pronik`> I'll try the vmstat stuff for now, thanks guys
[22:40] <lupine_85> (needs a .28 kernel really)

[22:40] <seventje> it seems my ubuntu install cd is borked.. I can still boot into the cd enviroment however, I now downloaded a new ubuntu iso to install, but I have no idea how Im going to burn an iso while being on the livecd
[22:40] <Slart> seventje: mount some hard drive with some free space and store it there
[22:40] <V0iD__> ubottu: How do I install it?
[22:40] <hmaader> pronik`: good luck
[22:40] <Slart> seventje: just because you boot from the live cd doesn't mean you can't access hard drives
[22:41] <jonaskoelker> Slart: and remove the livecd and put in the blank how?  ...
[22:41] <hmaader> ubottu: glad to meet you. do you know elvira?

[22:41] <loquitus> Hi. How do I install the 32 bit version of a C++ library that I have on my system? I am assuming that the version on my system is the 64 bit version since I installed 64 bit Ubuntu and compiling my app to 32 bit says that the library I currently have is not compatible
[22:41] <seventje> Slart: okay, but I still have to be able to boot into ubuntu without using a cdrom, else I cannot write to a cd right?
[22:41] <Slart> jonaskoelker: does it really need the cd once it has created the ram drive?

[22:43] <Slart> V0iD__: I'm not sure you can.. you need a kernel that supports it, I think

[22:43] <lupine_85> sebsebseb, well, if one updated the e2fs tools and the kernel, you could
[22:43] <Jaber> where is SeX ?

[22:45] <pisecx> Hi, I can not upgrade server kernel. It says unresolved dependencies.
[22:45] <lupine_85> I'm possibly being a bit silly entrusting my media partition to it, but meh :D
[22:45] <hmaader> spideyman: and sound also sucks now... firefox, flash, and pulseaudio seems to be a bad combination
[22:45] <pisecx> I tried to change servers - it didn't help
[22:45] <hmaader> spideyman: but YMMV :)
[22:46] <Slart> seventje: I'm going to try booting a live cd in a vm and see if I can eject the cd while running it
[22:46] <hmaader> spideyman: be brave :)
[22:46] <pepperjack> pisecx: try a sudo apt-get update.  do you see any failures?
[22:46] <faryshta> sebsebseb, pepperjack if you want to install a server I recommend you Xampp
[22:46] <seventje> Slart: ty
[22:46] <black_13> thanks
[22:46] <seventje> Slart: I really don't have that much more options available atm
[22:46] <lupine_85> Slart, as far as I know, it sticks everything into a ramdisk
[22:46] <grkblood13> last night i was messing with the volume control panel and today i have no sound. ive tried to fix it but i cant. does any1 know why im nto getting sound?
[22:46] <pisecx> pepperjack: no, everything is ok
[22:46] <macKindaBusy> What does apt-get build-dep do?
[22:46] <SoDoMa> how can i hack in ubuntu!?
[22:46] <SoDoMa> :D
[22:46] <lupine_85> macKindaBusy, installs build dependencies
[22:46] <Slart> lupine_85: mm.. I hope so =)
[22:46] <lupine_85> for, you know, building
[22:46] <hmaader> SoDoMa: use the source ;-)
[22:46] <pisecx> pepperjack: I tried to change servers. One of them even had no idea about updates.
[22:46] <lupine_85> SoDoMa, apt-get install nmap ; man nmap
[22:46] <histo> SoDoMa: what do you  mean?
[22:47] <pepperjack> SoDoMa: start with assembly work you way to cobol
[22:47] <hmaader> pepperjack: lol
[22:47] <histo> SoDoMa: did you lose your password?
[22:47] <lupine_85> it's how Trinity did it ;)
[22:47] <Flannel> SoDoMa: There's all sorts of languages available to hack on.  You'll have to figure out what you want to do.
[22:47] <SoDoMa> no
[22:47] <sebsebseb> sheena1: ok  yeah  ways to install Ubuntu,  is what your after
[22:47] <sebsebseb> !install
[22:47] <SoDoMa> i am learning C
[22:47] <hmaader> !automate
[22:47] <hmaader> SoDoMa: great, C is pretty much essential
[22:47] <younder> Trying to build ImageMagic I find it fails to find per.lib. I have Perl installed. How do I get per.lib?
[22:48] <younder> perl.lib
[22:48] <Leszczoman> goodbye
[22:48] <bohica> stupid thing
[22:48] <mac9416> What does apt-get build-dep do?
[22:48] <SoDoMa> but what a hacker can do?
[22:48] <mattgyver> Im hoping someone here has experience with samba, i got a real nasty problem to solve but its too big to ask here, please read my post @ubuntuforums; http://tinyurl.com/restartsamba904
[22:48] <Flannel> mac9416: it grabs the build dependencies for a package
[22:48] <Gnome_killa> on linux nothing
[22:48] <SoDoMa> outside the films
[22:48] <histo> mac9416: install the dependencacies for the package.
[22:49] <mac9416> Flannel, histo, Thanks!
[22:49] <Gnome_killa> a ahcker can only do somthing if they got ur root pass
[22:49] <Gnome_killa> hacker*
[22:49] <frindly> i have an old pc with only 128mb ram. which ubuntu can i use?
[22:49] <Jack_Sparrow> !minimal
[22:49] <lupine_85> frindly, ubuntu-minimal
[22:49] <Gnome_killa> lllooll
[22:49] <trancefat> frindly: Xubuntu
[22:49] <SoDoMa> to be a hacker ,..what i have to do
[22:49] <Gnome_killa> U can use ubuntu 0.10 LMFAO
[22:49] <josh977> xubuntu, but get the alternate install cd. You may have to use text mode to install
[22:49] <SoDoMa> 1.programmin.
[22:49] <frindly> ubuntu-minimal???
[22:49] <Flannel> Gnome_killa: Please stop that.
[22:49] <YiamiYo> hi...i need help...i just installed via apt-get on my xubuntu apache2-php5-mysql-server5.1 but when i'm trying to open a php page with firefox it downloads it istead of display it...
[22:49] <lupine_85> frindly, basically a debootstrap
[22:49] <hophophop> ou ou
[22:49] <Gnome_killa> Sodoma to be a hacker you need the brains not to ask how to be a hacker & learn it
[22:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Flannel He was warned in PM
[22:50] <Blinkiz> Hi there. I have changed some settings for file-roller in gconf. Do I need to restart gnome for this changes to take affect?
[22:50] <Gnome_killa> Get outta here
[22:50] <frindly> xubuntu works with 128mb?
[22:50] <histo> frindly: you can probably get away with running xubuntu on it.
[22:50] <Fare> arg... UNR has sucky super slow eyecandy interface -- how do I disable it?
[22:50] <Gnome_killa> flannel this fool asking how to be a hacker
[22:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Gnome_killa It is handled
[22:50] <trancefat> frindly: yes
[22:50] <Dr_Willis> Fare:  check the menus for the 'switch desktop' item.. and you may need to manually disabvle 'maximus
[22:50] <Flannel> Gnome_killa: Yes, and he's been taken care of.  You don't need to add to the noise.
[22:50] <lupine_85> pity the fool?
[22:50] <frindly> fine.
[22:50] <mheld> does anybody know how the packages for the 64 bit version of ubuntu are compiled? do they use SSE2 or 3?
[22:50] <frindly> better ext4 or ext2 with such less ram?
[22:51] <trancefat> frindly: http://www.xubuntu.org/
[22:51] <SP3C7R3> nerds fighting is funny
[22:51] <jorgegnz> HOLA
[22:51] <derekv> how can I hack web?
[22:51] <histo> frindly: ext4 might offer some speed improvements too.
[22:51] <Crash1hd> umm gparted livecd says that there is 931.51 gb of unallocated space (what happend to my install?) and if that is the case why doesnt it see the whole 1000GB?
[22:51] <Gnome_killa> frindly  ucan use old ubuntu 1.04 probly with ur pc
[22:51] <histo> !ot | derekv
[22:51] <Gnome_killa> maybe 2.10
[22:51] <computa_mike> good night / morning all.
[22:51] <Jack_Sparrow> derekv Stop or be removed
[22:51] <jorgegnz> EXISTE LINK DE DESCARGA DE UBU?
[22:51] <frindly> 1.04 :-)))
[22:51] <computa_mike> i
[22:51] <lupine_85> 1000GB != 1000GiB
[22:51] <Gnome_killa> but good luck finding them :P
[22:51] <lupine_85> well-known
[22:51] <frindly> do ext4 need more ram, than ext2?
[22:51] <Jack_Sparrow> !install
[22:51] <Fare> why put a super CPU intensive interface on a distro meant for CPU-starved machines???
[22:52] <Gnome_killa> jack he is aking what version he can install on a old pc with 128mb ram
[22:52] <Dr_Willis> frindly:  i dont see why it would. ext3 dosent need more ram then ext2 from what ive seen
[22:52] <lupine_85> I'd say xubuntu is still pushing it a bit
[22:52] <Gnome_killa> only thing I know runs that low is the old 1 & 2.0 ubuntu
[22:52] <SP3C7R3> elightenment
[22:52] <SP3C7R3> ftw
[22:52] <histo> !who | fare
[22:52] <YiamiYo> can anyone help me here?
[22:52] <Crash1hd> sure I know that 1000gb != 1000 GB but I didnt think it would take 69gb away
[22:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Gnome_killa HE was told minimal.  If he wants to know what others might work.. He is in the wrong channel
[22:53] <Gnome_killa> oh lol
[22:53] <pepperjack> xubuntu doesnt give you a great advantage to gnome as far as the de goes but the included apps like text editor etc are a little lighter
[22:53] <roy_hobbs> Will OO.o 3.1 come to Jaunty or will we have to wait until Karmic?  In general, where can I look up information like this?
[22:53] <Dr_Willis> Fare:  i dident find the UNR interface slow on my Aceraspireone. SOme others have had issues with the intel drivers making things slower.
[22:53] <histo> frindly: if you odn't need a gui then just install a command line based system with the mini iso
[22:53] <lupine_85> Crash1hd, it takes 24 bytes in every thosand
[22:53] <lupine_85> I lost 40GB in 500GB so it seems reasonably
[22:53] <Crash1hd> geeze
[22:53] <Fare> Dr_Willis: it's unbearably slow on this EeePC 701
[22:53] <Crash1hd> ok but where did my install go lol
[22:53] <darksk1ez> /var/lib/gconf/defaults/%gconf-tree.xml seems corrupted, how can i regenerate it
[22:53] <Dr_Willis> Fare:  check the wiki/forums for any info/tips
[22:53] <Gnome_killa> you can run the new ubuntu in command line interface mode actually as long as u do not try run the graphic side
[22:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !eee
[22:54] <lupine_85> well, that's another question entirely. What did you do before you lost it?
[22:54] <Crash1hd> I had a 20gig xp install and ubuntu install both gone
[22:54] <zakidine> Jai installer le Driver de ma carte graphique Nvidiam et maintenant jai Le Clavier en qwerty
[22:54] <sebsebseb> !english
[22:54] <ubuntunoobneedin> when i upgraded to 9.04 from 8.10 my wifi quit i think it has to do with proprietary drivers as when i installed 8.1 it asked to install proprietary drivers and with 9.04 it never asked its a broadcom 4312 i believe
[22:54] <finiteset> what does byte-copy to a USB drive mean?
[22:54] <zakidine> et aussi jai plus les boutons de Fermer/reduirAgrandir sur les fenetres
[22:54] <histo> !broadcomm | ubuntunoobneedin
[22:54] <Jack_Sparrow> !fr
[22:54] <Gnome_killa> Zaki !English
[22:54] <pepperjack> Fare: is the eee an x86 proc?  maybe arch linux would be better suited for ya
[22:54] <histo> !broadcom > ubuntunoobneedin
[22:55] <frindly> i install my work pc with ubuntu 9.04 and ext4 at the moment...
[22:55] <lupine_85> Crash1hd, sounds like the partition table is gone
[22:55] <Gnome_killa> yes your partition was baked u can use the linux cd to check your partitions
[22:55] <Crash1hd> very odd for sure (going to run a partition recovery tool) at first I thought that the system couldnt see the drive lol
[22:55] <Fare> pepperjack, yes, it's x86
[22:55] <finiteset> does anyone know how to burn .img files to a CD?
[22:55] <Gnome_killa> just run the linux from the cd not install
[22:55] <ubuntunoobneedin> I have tried that tutorial it seems to be alittle above my knowledge level
[22:55] <Fare> and it's for my gf
[22:55] <Jack_Sparrow> !img
[22:56] <Jack_Sparrow> !burn
[22:56] <darksk1ez> ahh, gconf-schemas --register-all
[22:56] <Mew-Chan> how do i set local LC_ALL and Language (not lang)
[22:56] <Crash1hd> Gnome_killa: I did and gparted says that its all unpartitioned empty
[22:56] <lupine_85> Mew-Chan, export LC_ALL='blah'
[22:56] <Jack_Sparrow> !iso
[22:56] <ubuntunoobneedin> can anyone help get my wifi working
[22:56] <YiamiYo> guys...need help asap here!!!
[22:56] <Mew-Chan> lupine_85: what should i put for blah :)
[22:56] <Gnome_killa> wel crash your partition is gone, uumm u can find erd commander & burn a copy & can use it to possibly recover teh lost data
[22:56] <Jack_Sparrow> !helpme > YiamiYo
[22:56] <Fare> Dr_Willis, where are the forums/wiki?
[22:56] <lupine_85> whatever you want to change it to, of course - e.g. en_GB.UTF-8
[22:57] <Gnome_killa> but that would take a long time depending how big the HD & amount of info
[22:57] <Edico> there is an ubuntu irc channel where can I get support for a virtualbox configuration?
[22:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Edico #vbox
[22:57] <Crash1hd> Gnome_killa: I have a program called resqdisk supposed to do that (havnt used it in years gonna give it a try :) )
[22:57] <histo> Edico: not necessarily a ubuntu one but a virtual box one is #vbox
[22:58] <Dr_Willis> Fare:  check the ubuntu.com site or google for ubuntu forums
[22:58] <Crash1hd> If all else fails I will just reinstall lol
[22:58] <lupine_85> apt-get remove virtualbox ; apt-get install kvm ;)
[22:58] <jawall> setting up bind and wondering what "realm" is in the smb.conf file...
[22:58] <jawall> is that the domain?
[22:58] <Gnome_killa> GL with that crash
[22:58] <ubuntunoobneedin> is there a broadcom room
[22:58] <finiteset> I want to test moblin and I cannot find any burner to burn .img files on Linux....the other option is to byte-copy .img file to a USB drive which I don't know how
[22:58] <Edico> Jack_Sparrow, histo I was there before and I found the most unwilling to help community in my life
[22:58] <Dr_Willis> finiteset:  k3b can burn img.. its sort of odd that a linux disrto would use .img
[22:59] <lupine_85> finiteset, k3b ftw
[22:59] <Dr_Willis> finiteset:  or is it for a Thumbdrive?  if so.. just use 'dd' if its a usb drive image.
[22:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Edico They have always been helpful when I asked a well thought out question
[22:59] <Crash1hd> yep its not a fun program thats for sure but it sure saved my but in the past :) but this time its not that big of a deal since well I didnt have any data on the drive.
[22:59] <l7> why does a folder called "rules" keep showing up on my desktop?
[23:00] <l7> there's a 0 byte filed called fieldRules.txt inside it
[23:00] <finiteset> Dr_Willis: It says it can be copied to a CD or a Thumbdrive...
[23:00] <Crash1hd> But the annoying part is that its all because windows wouldnt boot (kept giving me a blue screen something about unmountable boot volume soo odd
[23:00] <Edico> Jack_Sparrow, I asked them many well  thought questions and ... nothing
[23:00] <lupine_85> sounds more like a symptom than a cause
[23:01] <Dr_Willis> finiteset:  that would be weird.. does it say that FILE can be on eoither one.. or are they saying they have .img AND .iso images avail...
[23:01] <Gnome_killa> crash your hard drive is probalby destroyed
[23:01] <Dr_Willis> finiteset:  its easy to get a .img to a thumbdrive.
[23:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Edico That is the place to go for support, if you dont like their support consider another product
[23:01] <lupine_85> ...like KVM ;)
[23:01] <Crash1hd> Gnome_killa: what do you mean?
[23:01] <Crash1hd> Gnome_killa: its brand new
[23:01] <Gnome_killa> re-do the entier partition using erd comander with erd commander u can delete the mbr & als ore-do the partition
[23:01] <Edico> Jack_Sparrow, thank you I haven't thought at that
[23:01] <Gnome_killa> that might fix it
[23:02] <finiteset> Dr_Willis: they just have a .img file which can be byte-copied to a USB drive or burnt on a CD
[23:02] <Gnome_killa> well does it detect in ur bios?
[23:02] <Dr_Willis> finiteset:  thats a neat trick. try k3b i guess.. rename it to .iso perhaps.
[23:02] <Crash1hd> Gnome_killa: yes
[23:02] <Gnome_killa> what does your bios say about hte HD type & size?
[23:02]  * lupine_85 is using k3b right now :)
[23:02] <Crash1hd> Gnome_killa: that comes up correct
[23:02] <bootui> i have a hp cp1518ni printer and when i go to print a document the color is all wrong- what is wrong?
[23:02] <Gnome_killa> look at he HD & see if it matches the size
[23:02] <lupine_85> <3 <3
[23:02] <jdu> l7, some program must be creating it.   try:  lsof | grep fieldRules.tx     to see if a program is using it and what its process id is.
[23:03] <TuGa> hello ppl
[23:03] <Crash1hd> Gnome_killa: nah I think I just somehow screwed up the partitions
[23:03] <Gnome_killa> ok do you have a normal program for partitioning a HD aka Dos 6.22
[23:03] <Gnome_killa> u might have to use a normal partitioner liek dos to re-do the MBR
[23:03] <TuGa> i'm on a ubuntu9 64bit and what to play swf files but the add-on on firefox dont let me play them.
[23:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Gnome_killa why not gparted live?
[23:03] <seventje> any grub guru's around ? I want to reinstall the bootmanager to be able to boot into windows, grub-install /dev/sda1 gives error : Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[23:03] <TuGa> any ideia for a prog?
[23:03] <TuGa> app?
[23:03] <lupine_85> Gnome_killa, you realise you're not making sense, right?
[23:03] <Zyrion> For some reason I cannot remove postgresq2l 8.3
[23:03] <sidewalk> what does Ubuntu 9.04 run on port 990?
[23:03] <Gnome_killa> Gparted does nto redo teh MBR main bot reigon
[23:04] <Jack_Sparrow> seventje tryiong to install on your second partition?
[23:04] <Zyrion> postgresql 8.3 even
[23:04] <lupine_85> neither does DOS. GRUB does tgat
[23:04] <Gnome_killa> right lupin I only had this problem befoer with new HD & fixed it using fdisk /mbr
[23:04] <lupine_85> or LILO, or whatever windows does
[23:04] <sidewalk> !990
[23:04] <seventje> Jack_Sparrow: how do you mean?
[23:04] <Zyrion> !postgresql
[23:04] <lupine_85> yoj mean you didn't have a bootloader installed. good stuff
[23:05] <lupine_85> mbr != partition table
[23:05] <Gnome_killa> do not worry about the partition just do fdisk /mbr tehn fdisk & delete all partitions
[23:05] <Gnome_killa> then try install your os
[23:05] <lupine_85> *sigh*
[23:05] <Jack_Sparrow> seventje I was just heading out, someone will be by to help
[23:05] <lupine_85> don't forget to kill a rooster
[23:05] <ubuntunoob> I am trying to access my home directory.. how.. Sorry about the stupid question
[23:05] <ikonia> ?
[23:05] <seventje> okay
[23:05] <michalski-bj> hey problem: how do I re-enable compiz?
[23:05] <Gnome_killa> lupine u know nothing of dos MBR is main boot reigon track 0, u can scramle it by incorectyly parttioning
[23:06] <Gnome_killa> scramble*
[23:06] <lupine_85> scatter the blood widdershins around the PC, chanting IA IA AZORAK
[23:06] <TuGa> i'm on a ubuntu9 64bit and what to play swf files but the add-on on firefox dont let me play them. what app could i use?
[23:06] <ikonia> lupine_85: ok - can we stop the random noise please

[23:07] <zakidine> i did install ;y grqphic cqrd qnd now my keyboqrd is on qwerty mode
[23:07] <mattycoze> hey guys i'm trying to set up an FTP session atm but i'm having no luck; I'm using vsftp as the server and gFTP as the client
[23:07] <sebsebseb> Tetracomm: hi
[23:07] <Gnome_killa> Lupine I fixed my problems with same advice your wrong & ignored, have a nice day
[23:07] <zakidine> and i only use Azerty..
[23:07] <ikonia> mattycoze: test it by ftp'ing to localhost
[23:07] <Tetracomm> When using modprobe, typing modprobe modulename will only load, it, and not do anything else, right?
[23:07] <Gnome_killa> u still here crash?
[23:07] <jdu> l7, of course if that displays nothing, it means no program is using it right now.  Might also grep for rules.
[23:07] <mattycoze> ikonia you mean all on the same computer?
[23:07] <Tetracomm> Is there a command which I can use to tell me the model of a computer in the terminal?
[23:07] <ikonia> mattycoze: yup,
[23:07] <ubuntunoob> god i feel dumb.. thought it was file system->home.. haha.. and then figured i cant store shit in there lol
[23:07] <finiteset> Dr_Willis: renamed it to .iso and now its being burnt to  a CD by brasero... hope it will work.
[23:08] <lupine_85> kids these days
[23:08] <pepperjack> Tetracomm: see /proc  you can for instance cat /proc/cpuinfo
[23:08] <jdu> Tetracomm, lshw  tell that and much more
[23:08] <michalski-bj> SOMEONE ---> what do I have to do to get some attention here, yes your volunteers, I know, thank you, but noone ever answers my questions. How do I re-enable compiz fusion?
[23:08] <black_13> on apache2 under under ubuntu who should own the web directories ?
[23:09] <ikonia> mattycoze: system->administration->desktop effects
[23:09] <ikonia> mattycoze: sorry - not you
[23:09] <mattycoze> lol sok
[23:09] <lupine_85> black_13, www-data:www-data
[23:09] <ikonia> michalski-bj: system->administration->desktop effects
[23:09] <mattycoze> ikonia nah i can't for some reason i can't kick it into anonymous mode on the client
[23:09] <Crash1hd> still here :)
[23:09] <ikonia> mattycoze: pastebin your vsftpd.conf
[23:09] <michalski-bj> ikonia: thank you, greatly appreciated
[23:09] <jdu> michalski-bj, not that...   I assume you have tried the graphical way by going to appearance> visual affects.
[23:09] <mattycoze> ikonia okay brb
[23:09] <maco> Tetracomm: sudo lshw | head
[23:09] <michalski-bj> jdu: yes
[23:10] <maco> Tetracomm: the first few lines will tell you the model and vendor
[23:10] <Gnome_killa> can you access ur HD with a dos based system?
[23:10] <mattycoze> http://pastebin.com/m5e5674cc
[23:10] <mattycoze> ikonia; http://pastebin.com/m5e5674cc
[23:10] <Tetracomm> Ok, thank you. What about my modprobe question?
[23:10] <finiteset> Dr_Willis: your idea worked.... good job.. thanks
[23:10] <Gnome_killa> only way to fix a partition error liek this is reset ur mbr I done this with HD's before & saved em

[23:15] <jdu> michalski-bj, I think in that case it overwrote after doing the backup.  The 'possible-customized' was what happened when you added a the new monitor.  You could also delete xorg.conf then regenerate it.
[23:15] <lupine_85> Tetracomm, it'll load it plus its dependencies
[23:15] <Gnome_killa> !modprobe

[23:23] <pepperjack> Jeeva: you likely need to enable user login in the config file.  there is a front end to pureftp in the repos called pureadmin i think. give you a gui tool to edit the file. the only ftp server im aware of with a gui config tool in repos

[23:24] <keith> I installed Ubuntu 9.04 to a flash drive, but when I take it to a different computer it seems that it is only using basic drivers. Do I need to manually install the drivers, or is there a way to make it autodetect the different card?
[23:24] <keith> (video drivers)
[23:24]  * Gnome_killa freezes hell_ over
[23:25] <lupine_85> keith, you'll need to configure the video drivers for each machine, really
[23:25] <lupine_85> at least, one for nvidia and one for fglrx
[23:25] <sebsebseb> Laurenceb: what's the issue?
[23:25] <jdu> michalski-bj, after retrying to set it in appearance....  drats.   You may need to pick a different graphics driver.  Google the card you have and see if there is something is better.  If there is not, I don't know.  I was sure the problem sounded like something having to do with a change xorg.conf and that a new default one would fix it.
[23:25] <lupine_85> (the Free drivers tend to get picked up automagically these days)
[23:25] <Laurenceb> microphone isnt working

[23:29] <pepperjack> bill: just click on the signal meter top right of toolbar i believe
[23:29] <lupine_85> worst-case, you have a bunch of xorg.conf files and you (automatical|manual)ly swap them over per-machine

[23:35] <ActionParsnip> acr0nym: well it'll sort you out quick so you can write your essay, then remove what you dont need when you are less pressed for time
[23:35] <keith> lupine_85: I see glx, vgahw, nvidia, and intel among others
[23:35] <nimrod> avi files plays normal sound, but mp3 doesn't.     Why is that?
[23:35] <ikonia> _micah: install it ?
[23:35] <Gnome_killa> acr0 try installing ubuntu then removing the crap u do not need using add remove
[23:36] <pepperjack> Jeeva: try installing openssh-server and using winscp to connect after you make sure port 22 is forwarded.  OR  try this ftp -p <IP_ADDRESS>  or whatever ip.  the -p is for passive
[23:36] <stanis_sh> Gnome_killa: http://paste.org.ru/?2fmnfj - here it is...
[23:36] <keith> nimrod: Do you have an mp3 codec installed?
[23:36] <expl01t3r> hi
[23:36] <pepperjack> Jeeva: make sure ports 20-21 are forwarded properly
[23:36] <nimrod> keith: i have gstreamer installed
[23:36] <Jeeva> pepperjack: okay i've just installed WINCP now, works fine
[23:36] <Jeeva> pepperjack: thanks,
[23:36] <pepperjack> Jeeva: active ftp requires other ports is the problem.  np
[23:36] <ActionParsnip> Jeeva: if you install putty and xming, you can use x forwardingin windows
[23:37] <keith> nimrod: Ubuntu can't legally distribute mp3 support with the distro
[23:37] <Gnome_killa> ok did you try to re-install alsa using sudo apt-get install alsa*
[23:37] <_micah> ikonia: Okay its installed, how do I use it?
[23:37] <Gnome_killa> open a terminal & install using sudo apt-get install alsa*
[23:37] <Jeeva> just playing around with FTP, wanted to create a FTP upload dump, for peeps on my local network
[23:37] <nimrod> keith: so i must uninstall gstreamer and try another codec?
[23:37] <Amigadude> anyone know the yourbase & yoursize for the intel/mtrr fix  on the aspire one
[23:37] <ikonia> _micah: cdrecord --help or man cdrecord will give you a quick overview
[23:37] <Gnome_killa> if that does not work do sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install alsa*
[23:38] <stanis_sh> Gnome_killa: I tryed. It says "E: Couldn't find package alsa-info.sh"
[23:38] <Amigadude> the description of how to find it is well vague
[23:38] <keith> nimrod: gstreamer is not a codec, read my personal message
[23:38] <Gnome_killa> use sudo apt-get update first
[23:38] <mattycoze> ikonia bah this whole thing is rooed.
[23:38] <stanis_sh> Gnome_killa: I did.
[23:38] <Gnome_killa> hhhmm...
[23:38] <nimrod> keith: i read it. With distro you mean Ubuntu?
[23:39] <leffe> hello ppl
[23:39] <keith> nimrod, yes
[23:39] <fermulator> Q for someone ;-0 -- Does anyone know where the "drawer" in the gnome panel stores it's files?
[23:39] <Gnome_killa> open pkg manager search alsa
[23:39] <nimrod> keith: ok
[23:39] <Elite> Hey guys  is it possible to tell ubuntu where to mount a drie?
[23:39] <Gnome_killa> see if it let u do re-install might update & instal missing file
[23:39] <lupine_85> keith, ...in the USA, as I understand it
[23:39] <keith> nimrod: well, mp3 is legally supposed to be paid in order to distribute.
[23:39] <mattycoze> ikonia i'll just ssh the files even though it's slower
[23:39] <keith> lupine_85: Well, yeah... good call.
[23:39] <grkblood13> i have no sound
[23:39] <grkblood13> can some1 help me
[23:39] <grkblood13> it was working yesterday
[23:39] <lupine_85> <3 EU :)
[23:40] <Gnome_killa> hold on grk heling another with sound issue
[23:40] <Gnome_killa> helping*
[23:40] <nimrod> keith, so if i rip my cd's as ogg or flac, then i get support?
[23:40] <lupine_85> so, query - does radeonhd in jaunty support 3D yet?
[23:40] <grkblood13> ok, ill be right here :)
[23:40] <meoblast001> hi
[23:40] <Brando753> guys im trying to connect a wacom Pen Partner to my laptop via serial and ps2 usb adapters, It powers on but the pc dosent recognize it ;(
[23:40] <fermulator> lupine_85:  The open source Radeon is fairing pretty well, but RadeonHD is a little behind I believe
[23:40] <meoblast001> i have a file i'm trying to encrypt.. i can't figure out the Passwords and Encryption keys dialog.. can anyone help?
[23:40] <keith> nimrod: You can install mp3 easily enough, it's just not there by default because of the legal issues.
[23:41] <keith> nimrod: That said, I usually prefer ogg, granted many media players don't support ogg
[23:41] <pik{> how do i change the port to a irc server in irssi?
[23:41] <fermulator> Does anyone know where the "drawer" in the gnome panel stores it's files?
[23:41] <Elite> pik{: ask in #irssi
[23:41] <fermulator> pik{: use "-p ###"
[23:42] <nimrod> keith, ok.
[23:42] <lupine_85> fermulator, ah, so no actual 3D yet :)
[23:42] <jrib> pik{: http://irssi.org/documentation/startup#c3
[23:42] <pik{> fermulator: like /server irc.lol.net -p 31337 ?
[23:42]  * lupine_85 will fglrx it for now
[23:42] <pik{> allready tryed that
[23:42] <lupine_85> this one's not for me
[23:42] <keith> fermulator: I would guess in .gconf
[23:42] <MaT-dg> running 2 upnp servers (XMBC and vuze) on jaunty but they can't be discovered by other devices. XMBC doesn't even discover the local vuze server. Network (router) seems ok, WMP11 upnp server is discovered by other devices
[23:43] <sidewalk> how do i check which process is opening a certain port?
[23:43] <ayande> I need to access my /home/vmail/mails but I have no access, how can i get in?
[23:43] <vlad> what is gvfsd
[23:43] <sidewalk> netstat -natp doesn't show which process is opening the port
[23:43] <keith> fermulator: You might try making changes to it and then looking for recently changed files that look promising if nothing else.
[23:43] <ActionParsnip> sidewalk: netstat -a
[23:43] <fermulator> keith:  and if it's from an 'unused system'? (i.e. it's an old ubuntu installation, and I have the partition mounted, just not sure where to find the files (figured they'd just be XML files somwhere...)
[23:43] <jrib> sidewalk: you can use fuser as well iirc
[23:43] <jrib> sidewalk: or lsof...
[23:43] <keith> fermulator: I know ~/.gconf/panel stores information on panel configuration
[23:43] <zimbres> ayande, did you try sudo?
[23:44] <sidewalk> what flags should i use?
[23:44] <keith> fermulator: I am just guessing. Not sure about the widget things.
[23:44] <ayande> sudo only?
[23:44] <mabus> I'm using an ubuntu system as a gateway to the internet, but whenevever the ammount of connections gets high I have to run iptables -F on it. How can I change these settings?
[23:44] <lupine_85> ah, that's why I came here those several hours ago - my aforementioned ext4 mounted over nfs, on the client end, doesn't seem to be showing permissions correctly. I get a long string of numbers for owner:group
[23:44] <ayande> zimbres, should i only type sudo
[23:44] <_micah> ikonia: Okay I used "cdrecord -v dev=/dev/dvdrw myiso.iso" it did stuff but didn't actually seem to write to the disk.
[23:44] <fermulator> pik{: like: /connect irc.freenode.net 8000
[23:44] <lupine_85> I think I might be because I enabled POSIX ACLs on the server
[23:44] <lupine_85> so my question is/was: how do I convince ubuntu to swallow that pill?
[23:44] <fermulator> keith: ok thanks, i'll just try fiddling then ;-0
[23:44] <pik{> fermulator: yeah i just found it. damn, so simple :P
[23:44] <pik{> thanx
[23:45] <unoobtu> Hi, how can I expand my linux partition from gparted?
[23:45] <grkblood13> Gnome_killa, free?
[23:45] <zimbres> ayande, What do you whant to do?
[23:45] <Gnome_killa> dunno
[23:45] <Jeeva> pepperjack: is SFTP quite slow ? i only get about 72 KBps, and its on local network
[23:45] <Gnome_killa> no response from oher guy so whats ru prob?
[23:45] <plex0r> Do I need to edit boot.conf to set acpi=off everytime I boot?
[23:45] <ayande> zimbres i want to backup my emails
[23:45] <keith> fermulator: I have had pretty good success by using the find files option in places, searching for all files in the home directory (including hidden) and then sorting by modification time.
[23:45] <_micah> ikonia: http://pastebin.com/d55d5a431
[23:45] <grkblood13> i had sound yesterday, mucked with the control panel after installign skype, now i have no aduio
[23:46] <grkblood13> can i PM u?
[23:46] <_micah> ikonia: I noticed it said it can't open the session...
[23:46] <Blinkiz> When new drives, like usb and network units, is mounted to my local computer, a desktop icon is created for easy access. I want ubuntu to stop doing this. How can I remove so ubuntu does not create desktop icons of mounted removable devices?
[23:46] <keith> lupine_85: Did you get my message about the video?
[23:46] <lupine_85> unoobtu, you need free space at the end of the partition - do you have that?
[23:46] <Gnome_killa> uummm try resetting the setting in your sound options
[23:46] <fermulator> keith: so ... like ." find . ..?"
[23:46] <grkblood13> resetting?
[23:46] <zimbres> ayande, don't you have read permission to /home/vmail/mail?
[23:46] <lupine_85> keith, no, must have misssed it, sorry
[23:46] <Gnea> argh! mysql refuses to start and there's nothing in mysql.err ... syslog says that it doesn't have permission to bind to the IP (localhost) and if i change the user that it runs as from 'mysql' to 'root', the same error occurs... it's 8.10 intrepid
[23:46] <grkblood13> theres not a default
[23:47] <unoobtu> lupine_85: yes i do, however, it is on the other side of my ntfs partition like so; [UNALLOACATED][NTFS][LINUX]
[23:47] <ayande> zimbres no i dont, thats what it sais
[23:47] <Gnome_killa> hold on lemem look at my settings, what did u change?
[23:47] <keith> fermulator: You could use find, but I am not sure of the flags off hand. I tend to be lazy and using the GUI ubuntu gives you.
[23:47] <grkblood13> who knows
[23:47] <lupine_85> unoobtu, you can't expand your partition in a discontiguous manner
[23:47] <Gnome_killa> if u changes from asla to somthing back set back to asla
[23:47] <grkblood13> i had sound last night though
[23:47] <Gnea> and mysql isn't starting on a 8.04 system as well
[23:47] <Dr_Willis> unoobtu:  what ersion of windows do you have on that thing?
[23:47] <lupine_85> you could migrate to LVM if you have the space
[23:47] <Gnea> same error
[23:47] <keith> lupine_85: I see glx, vgahw, nvidia, and intel among others
[23:47] <Gnome_killa> grk did u change from asla to another sound setting?
[23:48] <_micah> Anyone familiar with cdrecord?
[23:48] <lupine_85> keith, which OpenGL vendor does glxinfo say you're using?
[23:48] <unoobtu> lupine_85: how can I move the unallowacted space? I have windows 7 and vista Dr_Willis
[23:48] <zimbres> ayande, You can use root password to read it.
[23:48] <grkblood13> im using Audigy 2 Value <Unknown) (Alsa mixer)
[23:48] <Gnome_killa> ok change it to asla
[23:48] <ayande> zimbres, how do i do that?
[23:48] <lupine_85> unoobtu, you can't
[23:48] <lupine_85> well
[23:48] <ayande> zimbres, sorry im a linux beginner
[23:48] <Dr_Willis> unoobtu:  you could use windows 7 to 'resize' teh ntfs partition to take up the space on the left side.. then use it again to shrink it from the right side..
[23:49] <keith> lupine_85: I don't have access to the computer right now. Just the flash drive and log files.
[23:49] <lupine_85> if you were feeling brave, you could use dd to move the partition data further along, then edit the partition table manually
[23:49] <Dr_Willis> ubottu:  i find windows7 MUCH faster at resizing ntfs then gparted does
[23:49] <fermulator> keith: oh, the gui can?
[23:49] <Dr_Willis> unoobtu:  i ment. :)
[23:49] <lupine_85> I so don't recommend it
[23:49] <unoobtu> Dr_Willis: nice, how do I do that?
[23:49] <zimbres> ayande, type: sudo su, and then, cd /home/...
[23:49] <Gnea> got the syslog entry here: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d7e6593e4  mysql just won't start.  no matter how I tweak my.cnf, it just won't.
[23:49] <ayande> zimbres, thanks ill try that
[23:49] <keith> fermulator: Yeah, Places->Search For Files
[23:49] <Dr_Willis> unoobtu:  check the win7 tools/disk management stuff. I found it to be like 1000x faster then gparted at those tasks.
[23:50] <unoobtu> Dr_Willis: I can't boot into windows 7, I can only mount it and access it's files from linux
[23:50] <moira> under-linux.org/7370-links-para-ubuntu-704.htm
[23:50] <ayande> zimbres, thanks alot m8 I appriciate it
[23:50] <Elite> Can anyone help me?
[23:50] <lupine_85> keith, to me it sounds like you should have had 3D acceleration in the second machine, but without having it up to debug, it's hard to do much
[23:50] <Dr_Willis> unoobtu:   that sucks then.  You can resize ntfs from linux, but yopu would have to grow it to the left.. then shrink it fromn the right... and that will take.. err... a long time.
[23:51] <zimbres> ayande,  I think you should use a program to read it instead of read it directly
[23:51] <Dr_Willis> unoobtu:  this is just a ntfs-data partition? or what exactly?
[23:51] <Gnea> !mysql
[23:51] <ayande> zimbres ill check for that thanks
[23:51] <unoobtu> Dr_Willis: it's a windows 7 partition with a corrupted mbr
[23:51] <_micah> Anyone one familiar with cdrecorder? I'm trying to burn a dvd and it's failing.
[23:51] <zimbres> Elite, how could we/
[23:51] <Dr_Willis> unoobtu:  cant just boot a win7 cd and fix the mbr?
[23:52] <unoobtu> Dr_Willis: there is no windows 7 cd :)
[23:52]  * lupine_85 finds it amusing that his LAMP stack is actually a LARP stack
[23:52] <stanis_sh> Gnome_killa: alsactl store
[23:52] <stanis_sh> alsactl: save_state:1513: No soundcards found...
[23:52] <lupine_85> no it's not
[23:52] <lupine_85> LAMR stack, rather
[23:52] <Dr_Willis> unoobtu:  or are you going to get rid of windows 7? You can find windows 7   at various places still. :)
[23:52] <ienorand> fermulator: You could do find / 2>/dev/null | grep part-of-name-of-file-or-folder
[23:52] <stanis_sh> I guess, I need to reinstall something. :)
[23:52] <Gnome_killa> ok ur soundcard was removed
[23:52] <plex0r> Does anyone know what I need to edit so that acpi=off is automatically set when the system is booted? Rather than me having to enter it everytime?
[23:52] <Elite> zimbres: is it possible to tell ubuntu where to mound a disk drive on boot rather than the standarad /dev/sda etc?
[23:52] <unoobtu> Dr_Willis: at least not one that I have. anyway, I figured out how to solve this problem: download windows again into a VM and delete the partition. expand.
[23:52] <chuck_> Blinkiz open Applications system tools  configuration editor  then find apps expand find nautilus expand t find desktop click on it uncheck what you do not want shown
[23:52] <Gnome_killa> try restarrting ur os & see if it re-dete4cts
[23:53] <lupine_85> Elite, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[23:53] <Dr_Willis> plex0r:  check the /boot/grub/menu.lst file - thers a place for it in there.
[23:53] <unoobtu> thanks for the help Dr_Willis
[23:53] <lupine_85> read the comments carefully
[23:53] <stanis_sh> Gnome_killa: okay, one minute
[23:53] <Gnome_killa> if not you need to find out what kind of sound card u have
[23:53] <fermulator> keith: ienorand: hum ... it doesn't find it.
[23:53] <plex0r> thank you mucho Dr_Willis
[23:53] <ienorand> fermulator: That'll search through everything in / for the string after grep
[23:53] <Dr_Willis> unoobtu:  delete? if you wanted to delete the ntfs - thats easially done..
[23:53] <unoobtu> Dr_Willis: I know :) easy and fast
[23:53] <makoshark86> just installed a fresh copy of ubuntu 9.10, and my mouse wheel is stuck scrolling up. have tried three different mice with the same results, and xev confirms that it is sending a signal constantly.
[23:53] <ienorand> fermulator: what is it you're looking for?
[23:53] <makoshark86> is this ak nown issue with 9.10/ how do i go about fixing it?
[23:53] <fermulator> (created a "Custom App" called "my_funny_guy" in a drawer) -- trying to find out where "drawer" saves it's XML files
[23:54] <Blinkiz> chuck_, Thanks! The value to change was "columes_visible". :)
[23:54] <vlad> what is gvfsd
[23:54] <vlad> come on
[23:54] <Dr_Willis> gnome virtual file system i think
[23:55] <Jeeva> why is SFTP so slow...
[23:55] <Jeeva> 85 KBps
[23:55] <vlad> what exactly odoes it do
[23:55] <Dr_Willis> vlad:  it hanles the special gnome places like smb:// and stuff i think
[23:55] <fermulator> ienorand: (created a "Custom App" called "my_funny_guy" in a drawer) -- trying to find out where "drawer" saves it's XML files
[23:55] <makoshark86> does anyone have any ideas for fixing my mouse?
[23:56] <_micah> I need some help burning a DVD!
[23:56] <ActionParsnip> !mouse
[23:56] <issa> Hi, does ubuntu support tablet laptops "touch-smart" to have what vista provides like the pen tablet and all these stuff?
[23:56] <chuck_> Blinkiz your welcome

[23:56] <Gnea> !apparmor
[23:56] <vlad> and what is the http traffic coming from it?
[23:57] <vlad> and going to sites that i have browsed?
[23:57] <ienorand> fermulator: A guess would be: ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-settings/gnome-panel/%gconf.xml
[23:58] <subspider> i have a file with extension .bin i want to install what i have to do
[23:58] <Dr_Willis> subspider:  what is it anyway?  normally one does 'sh ./whatever.bin'
[23:58] <Dr_Willis> subspider:  or chmod +x whatever.bin  && ./whaever.bin
