[00:00] <Elad> I recently noticed that my server had more processes running than normal so I did 'ps ax' and noticed that I have probably 100-150 pop3-login processes running... there are only like 20 users that have access to email on that box and only about 10 of those users use the email. How do I get rid of the processes? I did a 'killall -I pop3-login' but within ms they return, and show up as a 'new auth connection' in the syslog
[00:00] <pr0xy> Will Gnome 3 be available in Maverick Meerkat?
[00:01] <ron_> anyone have any idea when i dual monitor i can only mirror, not dual and i get lines when i do?
[00:01] <jacksonr_> Pr0xy install gnome shell

[00:01] <pr0xy> Maverick Uses Gnome 2.32
[00:02] <semperbob> @ron, does your video card require any proprietary drivers?
[00:03] <gasull> slidinghorn, aeon-ltd: I go to System->Preferences->Network Proxy->Manual Proxy Configuration->Use the same proxy for all protocols, and set the proxy there.  It doesn't work.  The proxy is working for Firefox with Foxyproxy extension.
[00:03] <gasull> sorry, typed that out of my readline
[00:03] <MagusOTB> pr9xy: I would assume it'll be in once it's stable, isn't it slated for release in april or something?
[00:03] <pr0xy> Gnome 3 should be out in april 2011, just in time for Natty Narwhal. I answered my own question :P
[00:03] <jacksonr_> gnome shell is going to be what gnome 3 will be. It can be installed through a ppa or git repository
[00:04] <SalahGo> Hi, anyone could help me on "make" command?
[00:04] <jacksonr_> try ./make
[00:04] <pr0xy> ok. Should I add KDE over my standard GNOME-ubuntu install, or start from scratch with Kubuntu?
[00:04] <Hrimfaxi> anyone know a sysinfo plugin for xchat? (similar to darkengine for mIRC)

[00:06] <pvl1> is there a way to get sh tab complete script option
[00:07] <pvl1> x0rs, yes extremely
[00:07] <x0rs> pvl1: do I just start script with !#/bin/bash and then follow that with my command?
[00:07] <x0rs> pvl1, sorry new to scripting

[00:10] <metap0d> Hi everyone, whenever I login to Ubuntu I am prompted to enter my password for 2 separate keyrings ... I'm completely new to Linux/Ubuntu and I'm not sure how to turn them offf
[00:10] <pr0xy> metap0d, are you admin?
[00:10] <pvl1> metap0d, do u want to turn off both passwords? they keyring will be a bit moer diffiult, is this a wireless laptop
[00:11] <goltoof> got this mouse issue where i can't click anything, comes back after a minute or two.  please halp!
[00:11] <Maahes> I keep having my touchpad driver keep losing sync which blanks out the screen and can cause xorg to crash, is there any way to fix this permanently? doing sudo rmmod / modprobe psmouse works for a few minutes
[00:11] <pvl1> goltoof, look at ur logs
[00:11] <mbeierl> why is mp3 ripping so incredibly slow in rhythmbox/meerkat?
[00:11] <goltoof> Maahes, same boat, not same issue.  bamboo pad is bugging out my system
[00:11] <Olytibar> hi, I want to get information about a video file in the shell (eg length). How can I do so?
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> mbeierl: try a different app
[00:12] <metap0d> pr0xy: As far as I know I am the admin ... whenever I do anything that requires sudo I have the password
[00:12] <goltoof> pvl1, any one in specific?
[00:12] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: which one?
[00:12] <metap0d> pvl1: I'd like to turn both off and no it's a wireless desktopp
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> Olytibar: try mencoder or mplayer (i believe they can show details)
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> !rip
[00:12] <stalker> i zero'd a drive then parted and formatted it with mkfs.ntfs, it was being reconized though, so i tried parting and formatting with a variety of windows disc utils, and now it locks up my linux and windows systems if i plug it in (its a external usb) any ideas????
[00:12] <MagusOTB> Olytibar: check out mplayer's options, I think it has one that does that.
[00:12] <pvl1> goltoof, syslog first, messages, kernel maybe
[00:12] <stalker> its wasnt being reconized***
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> mbeierl: soundjuicer looks ok
[00:12] <pvl1> metap0d, well you can enable an autologin if you like, that sonly for the first login screen
[00:13] <pr0xy> ok. what kind of computer do you have metap0d?
[00:13] <goltoof> pvl1, hmm.. guess it's about time to learn myself what logs do what
[00:13] <metap0d> pvl1: Oh I like being prompted for my user password when I login to Gnome  ... but it prompts me for 2 separate keyrings after I login and those are what i'd like to disable
[00:13] <ubuntu> because it says its mounted, but wont umount
[00:13] <metap0d> pr0xy: Just a standard desktop connected wirelessly
[00:13] <pvl1> goltoof, eh nto really, i just look at syslog msot of the time or search them all and take searh for what i need with keywords
[00:14] <pvl1> metap0d, oh ok so its the 2 keyrings you would like to disable
[00:14] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: btw, it's not the encoding, it's the reading from the cd that's really slow...
[00:14] <utopia> hola a todos
[00:14] <pr0xy> metap0d, I need to help with dinner, pvll can help.
[00:14] <utopia> alguien para charlar
[00:14] <metap0d> pvl1: Yep .. I am 99% sure one of them is for my wireless connection ... the other one I have no idea.
[00:14] <goltoof> pvl1,  where is syslog?
[00:14] <ActionParsnip> mbeierl: then try using hdparm to enable dma if its disabled
[00:15] <rww> !es | utopia
[00:15] <SalahGo> anyone could tell me the make command of this git clone?
[00:15] <coraxx> metap0d: I can help you...cuz I now why ...and how to remove :-)
[00:15] <SalahGo> git clone git://anongit.compiz.org/compiz/plugins/atlantis
[00:15] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: sorry - it's not the drive speed that's slow, it's the paranoia or something....
[00:15] <dw-> anyone on ubuntu have or don't have trouble browsing the AdSense control panel with FireFox?  all i get is a blank page
[00:15] <metap0d> pvl1: I managed to find a "Passwords and Encryption Keys" dialog but I don't want to edit/delete anything without being sure ... and I couldn't find an accurate google answer
[00:15] <pvl1> goltoof, /var/log         try something like cat /var/log/* | grep KEYWORD
[00:15] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: used to be able to turn off all the skips protection/etc.
[00:15] <utopia> thanks
[00:15] <ActionParsnip> mbeierl: then use a lower paranoia setting
[00:15] <stalker> i zero'd a drive then parted and formatted it with mkfs.ntfs, it wasn't being reconized though, so i tried parting and formatting with a variety of windows disc utils, and now it locks up my linux and windows systems if i plug it in (its a external usb) any ideas????
[00:15] <metap0d> coraxx: Oh? Please share : )
[00:16] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: that's the thing that I'm searching for.  don't know how to find it in rhythmbox or soundjuicer
[00:16] <coraxx> metap0d: you need to remove "Default" ... and _KEEP_ "login" ...after that, you have to right click on login, as choose it as the default.
[00:16] <pvl1> metap0d, Go to Applications -> Accessories -> Password and Encryption Keys
[00:17] <ActionParsnip> mbeierl: http://art.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1099289
[00:17] <coraxx> metap0d: restart ...and it should be fixed:  you might have to re-insert you wireless once more...but that should do it
[00:17] <semperbob> I'm having a weird problem -- rebooting doesn't seem to reset gdm properly
[00:17] <dw-> anyone on ubuntu with adsense ads running with probs under firefox in CP?
[00:17] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: of course!  gconf-editor!  why didn't I think of that ;)
[00:17] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: thanks!!
[00:17] <ActionParsnip> mbeierl: np bro
[00:17] <metap0d> coraxx: Ok I'll restart and give it a go
[00:18] <semperbob> like, any settings that I create don't take effect unless I use the service gdm restart command even after rebooting the system
[00:18] <metap0d> pvl1: Thanks I'm there I'll brb!
[00:18] <goltoof> any idea what bkl-orbiter, bkl-investigator  would be used for?
[00:18] <coraxx> metap0d: ok...see you it a bit then
[00:18] <goltoof> i know what it is, but what is it used for and how do i get rid of it?
[00:18] <goltoof> no man entries, or any info on how to remove bkl-orbiter/bkl-investigator
[00:18] <Sean931> i cant kill transmission, what should i do?
[00:19] <pvl1> goltoof, why do u think its anything to do with bkl
[00:19] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: run:  ps -ef | grep trans    you can kill the PID
[00:19] <iskin> In gconf>desktop>gnome>session>required_components_list, if I put gnome-do, and/or docky, will that cause it to reload if it closes?
[00:20] <goltoof> pvl1, separate question.. but bkl- got appeared on my system after installing wacom tablet drivers, which is when the mouse bug showed up
[00:20] <MagusOTB> goltoof: looks like it has something to do with watching the FS for changes. I just googled it.
[00:21] <Sean931> ActionParsnip: still doesnt kill
[00:21] <pvl1> goltoof, oh ok jw
[00:21] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: then use: kill -9 PID
[00:21] <goltoof> MagusOTB, not installed by default, i'd like to remove it but it might break something else
[00:21] <Sean931> ActionParsnip: i did
[00:21] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: is the process owned by your user?
[00:21] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  tried sudo apt-get remove bkl-orbiter ... can't figure out command to get rid of it
[00:21] <MagusOTB> goltoof: try dpkg -S bkl-orbiter
[00:22] <Sean931> ActionParsnip: how do i check?
[00:22] <MagusOTB> it'll tell you what package it belongs to
[00:22] <Reverend_Ruff> Sean931: you're entering the PID and not just typing "PID" after the kill command, are you?
[00:22] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: the output of the command will state the user on the left
[00:22] <T0aD> hi guys, im trying to upgrade a real old ubuntu server dist (6.10) and I encounter this error while trying to install libdevmapper: mkdir: cannot create directory `/dev/.static/dev/mapper': Read-only file system. Any suggestion welcome :)
[00:22] <Maahes> how can I explicitly set the Frequency Scaling Governors?
[00:22] <Sean931> yes im the user
[00:22] <Sean931> and yes im usid the PID
[00:23] <Reverend_Ruff> T0aD: are you upgrading to 10.10?
[00:23] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  yes, i see but what to do with this information? :)
[00:23] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: then -9 should definately kill it good, -9 is the biggest hammer
[00:23] <T0aD> Reverend_Ruff, heu from 6.10 to 7.04 in a first step :)
[00:23] <tortoise> Is there a script or something I could use to get ubuntu to have a "reminder" on the desktop?
[00:23] <MagusOTB> If you really want to get rid of it, apt-get removing the package that it says its a part of will get rid of it.
[00:23] <goltoof> tortoise, screenlets?
[00:23] <Sean931> ActionParsnip:  i've tried it doesn't kill it
[00:23] <MagusOTB> although I'm not sure what problems getting rid of it will solve, I'm kind of jumping in mid conversation
[00:24] <Gobi> hi guys :) How can I give one user to have all privileges over other users files?
[00:24] <metap0d> coraxx: Thanks a lot that did the trick : D
[00:24] <tortoise> goltoof: what is that?
[00:24] <Gobi> is there a tut for that
[00:24] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: try: sudo kill -9 transmission     ,should do it
[00:24] <coraxx> metap0d: yup, I thought so ;-)  you're welcome
[00:24] <Reverend_Ruff> Gobi: add them to the sudoers file.
[00:24] <MagusOTB> ActionParsnip: you mean killall?
[00:24] <ActionParsnip> MagusOTB: yeah, do'h
[00:25] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  i think it has to do with the wacom drivers i installed, which probably use it to keep it up to date?  all i know is it installed when i installed the drivers, i want to reinstall wacom anyway, so..
[00:25] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: MagusOTB: sudo killall -9 transmission
[00:25] <coraxx> metap0d: it usually occurs when you install Ubuntu ...and you choose to start up "live" first ...then connect to a wireless network...and then begin the installation.
[00:25] <[daemon]> eek
[00:25] <Gobi> Reverend_Ruff: Otherwise it would be ok, but I don't want to every time hit the password..
[00:25] <MagusOTB> goltoof: how did you install them?
[00:25] <goltoof> tortoise,  Applications > Accessories > Screenlets
[00:25] <tortoise> goltoof: nevermind I got it. But I was wondering if there was a way I could do it via terminal
[00:26] <Sean931> its still running
[00:26] <goltoof> tortoise,  i assume you're looking for some kind of sticky reminder app for your desktop.. screenlets has stuff like that
[00:26] <MagusOTB> Sean931: have you tried xkill?
[00:26] <Sean931> there is no window
[00:26] <Reverend_Ruff> Gobi: just enter them into the sudoer's file with "user ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL"
[00:27] <Gobi> Reverend_Ruff: Oh, thx. Ill try that out :)
[00:27] <x0rs> pvl1: thanks again, that works perfectly... rsync is amazing
[00:27] <MagusOTB> Sean931: oh. killall -s 9 transmission doesn't do it?
[00:27] <Sean931> nope
[00:27] <goltoof> MagusOTB, need to backtrack.. there are different ways people go about setting up wacoms
[00:27] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: can you give the output of: ps -ef | grep -i trans     use http://pastie.org   to give the output
[00:27] <Reverend_Ruff> Gobi: or you can just add them to group "wheel" and then just uncomment the appropriate wheel line (with or without passwd). Then you can just add/remove people from that group.
[00:27] <pvl1> x0rs, im not a fan of it
[00:28] <MagusOTB> goltoof: yeah, and I've never used one, so it just apt-get removing whatever you used to install them then apt-get autoremove not doing it?
[00:28] <x0rs> pvl1: really? for uploading files to my webserver it's instantaneous
[00:28] <pvl1> x0rs, unsecure, but i guess for that purpose it wouldnt matter, in most cases
[00:28] <MonthOLDpickle> where can I find a torrent of Ubuntu 10.10 UNR?
[00:29] <Sean931> http://pastie.org/1248774
[00:29] <x0rs> pvl1: yeah, I am just using it to sync my local files to my web-server for quick updates to my page
[00:29] <MonthOLDpickle> Everytime I download it from site and go to install it fails to install the Unity GUI
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> Reverend_Ruff: Gobi: By doing this you absolutely cripple the security in your OS
[00:29] <MagusOTB> pvl1: isn't it relatively easy to run it through a secure pipe?
[00:29] <metap0d> Is there a default shortcut for Ubuntu 10.10/Gnome to launch a terminal window?? I've tried googling this and all I find are methods to move between virtual consoles
[00:29] <metap0d> default keyboard shortcut*
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> metap0d: CTRL+ALT+T
[00:29] <MonthOLDpickle> please?
[00:29] <MonthOLDpickle> The downlaod si slow fromt he main site
[00:29] <pvl1> MagusOTB, with stunnel or with an encrypted port forward, or openvpn, there are a few ways
[00:29] <metap0d> ActionParsnip: Awesomee : )
[00:29] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  bkl-orbiter i think triggers bkl-investigator.. which occasionally eats up tons of cpu
[00:30] <pvl1> x0rs, hm, for that purpose yaehi can see it being wonderful
[00:30] <ActionParsnip> metap0d: or install guake or tilda (Gnome) or Yakuake (KDE) to get a quake like terminal drop down
[00:30] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  sudo apt-get remove works on neither
[00:30] <ActionParsnip> !download | MonthOLDpickle
[00:30] <Reverend_Ruff> ActionParsnip: He asked to give a user privileges over all other users - I took that to mean he was aware of the risks.
[00:30] <Reverend_Ruff> guake is really nice, in my opinion, but I usually just use CTRL+ALT+T as a terminal keyboard shortcut.
[00:30] <Sean931> ActionParsnip: http://pastie.org/1248774
[00:31] <MagusOTB> goltoof: yeah, you want to dpkg -S `which bkl-investigator`, it'll tell you what package its part of, then you can apt-get remove that.
[00:31] <MagusOTB> goltoof: but it's probably a better idea to remove whatever installed it as a dep and then apt-get autoremove.
[00:31] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  it also indexes thumbnails, just like ~/.thumbnails ... i really don't think need this extra service
[00:31] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: so I'm guessing you were running: kill -9 2387
[00:31] <Sean931> yes
[00:32] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: seems its not killable and you must kill the parent process
[00:32] <goltoof> libbickley-0.4-0: /usr/lib/bickley/bkl-investigator
[00:32] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: technically its already dead
[00:32] <MagusOTB> goltoof: regardless, most things don't like it when you rip dependencies out from under them. I'd suggest disabling whatever it does in whatever package installed it. I don't know how to display deptrees with apt, but I bet somebody in here does.
[00:33] <Sean931> ActionParsnip: what is the parent process?
[00:33] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: ps -ef | grep defunct | awk '{print "kill -9 ",$3}'     try that
[00:33] <MagusOTB> goltoof: so apt-get remove libbickley will get rid of it.
[00:33] <MagusOTB> goltoof: if that's what you want to do
[00:33] <Reverend_Ruff> ActionParsnip has no love for stubborn processes it would seem. = / lol
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> Reverend_Ruff: they suck, zombies getting in the way
[00:34] <Reverend_Ruff> You gotta shoot 'em in the head.
[00:34] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  sudo apt-get remove libbickley  does not compute
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/suse-novell-60/howto-kill-defunct-processes-574612/
[00:35] <Sean931> i getkill -9  1
[00:35] <Sean931> kill -9  5062
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: shows how to find the parent, kill the parent and the zombie will die
[00:35] <MagusOTB> kill -9 1?? that's a bad idea...
[00:35] <Reverend_Ruff> lol
[00:35] <MagusOTB> I almost want to try it just to see what will happen.

[00:44] <acacios> Use the --without-x option if you really want this
[00:44] <FloodBot3> acacios: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:45] <ActionParsnip> m_fulder: yes, its a video chip
[00:45] <LjL> acacios: have you considered using the WINE that's in the repositories rather than compiling your own?
[00:45] <m_fulder> aha okey good ActionParsnip  ... but still what's causing this weird problem? :P
[00:45] <ActionParsnip> m_fulder: try setting a different refresh rate
[00:45] <acacios> Ljl,yeah,i have tride it .but this one is wine 1.3.5
[00:45] <m_fulder> higher or lower?
[00:46] <Maahes> question, I had fast-user-switcher kept crashing from gnome-panel, so I removed it, I went to add it back, and I only saw user-switcher, which is markedly different (for one, I don't have the ability to enter shutdown from it)
[00:46] <m_fulder> ActionParsnip,  its 60Hz default .. I've tried to set it to 75Hz but same thing happends
[00:46] <sympt0m> how can i find out where a package was installed to?
[00:46] <s0dium> can anyone tell me why when i have installed Ubuntu 10.10 my resolution looks slightly different?
[00:47] <ActionParsnip> s0dium: different driver, different Xorg version
[00:47] <IdleOne> s0dium: different default font
[00:47] <Reverend_Ruff> sympt0m: which <package>
[00:47] <m_fulder> ActionParsnip, also, maybe this doesn't matter, but Im running dual screen (HDMI and VGA output)
[00:47] <s0dium> ah thanks Idleone!
[00:47] <ActionParsnip> sympt0m: they dont get installed to a specific place, the files in the package get put in many places
[00:47] <s0dium> what was the default font before?
[00:47] <acacios> LJL,I have tride wine1.2,but now i am trying wine1.3.5
[00:47] <ActionParsnip> m_fulder: try with just the VGA connection
[00:47] <is_> I think I might've identified a minor issue, but I'm not entirely sure if it  consitutes a problem and I'm not sure where I'd report it if I were.
[00:47] <IdleOne> s0dium: don't remember, I like the new Ubuntu font :)
[00:47] <rww> s0dium: Deja Vu Sans
[00:48] <rww> s0dium: aka "Sans" on Ubuntu systems
[00:48] <IdleOne> ahh rww to the rescue
[00:48] <s0dium> is it easy to change back
[00:48] <sympt0m> like, i want to put the main file in a certain directory, so i can access it with terminal without navigating to different places for different programs
[00:48] <s0dium> cheers guys
[00:48] <s0dium> cheers
[00:48] <rww> s0dium: yes. System → Preferences → Appearance → Fonts
[00:48] <sympt0m> but i dont know where to find that file, so i can copy it
[00:48] <s0dium> thanks found it
[00:48] <sammy> anyone? has anyone heard of anything like this? an audio device auto-muting when the output is above a certain level?
[00:48] <ActionParsnip> s0dium: sure, just change the theme, right click desktop -> change background then click the leftmost tab then click customize
[00:48] <LjL> acacios: the PPA mentioned at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine has 1.3.5
[00:49] <sympt0m> i thought they all got installed to /usr/local/bin
[00:49] <sympt0m> but i cant find it in there
[00:49] <acacios> LjL,ok,thank you.
[00:49] <m_fulder> ActionParsnip, same error with only VGA in
[00:49] <maximi89> hhi guys, how can i load ubuntu toram, 10.04
[00:49] <maximi89> just "toram" should work?
[00:49] <ActionParsnip> sympt0m: the binary will be put in /usr/bin but other files will be placed in other places
[00:50] <ActionParsnip> maximi89: i wish it did :(  I submitted it on brainstorm
[00:50] <rachel___> can anyone help me with partioning
[00:50] <sammy> and because the mute toggle LOCKS the audio level (whose idea was that?) I have to stop the music to turn it down, because it doesn't stay unmuted long enough to let me turn the volume down.
[00:50] <is_> rachel__: Sure, what do you need?
[00:50] <s0dium> one more thing, could someone please tell me the command to register a nickname on irc please?
[00:51] <maximi89> ActionParsnip: so it should not work?
[00:51] <rww> ubottu: register | s0dium
[00:51] <bigmike> is this where the neebs hang out?
[00:51] <josephseraos> Hey, is still MySQL free?
[00:51] <ActionParsnip> maximi89: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/1503/
[00:51] <bigmike> *noobs
[00:51] <ActionParsnip> josephseraos: yes, its in the reops and is free
[00:51] <bigmike> cool
[00:51] <ActionParsnip> bigmike: this is the support channel
[00:52] <dw-> LjL: woot thats gonna fix my wine system tray problem thx :)
[00:52] <IdleOne> bigmike: Do you have a Ubuntu support releated question?
[00:52] <bigmike> cool
[00:52] <bigmike> not yet...but now I know where to ask
[00:52] <IdleOne> related*
[00:52] <dw-> add: ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa to repositories in synaptic !
[00:52] <sympt0m> still cant find it =/
[00:53] <Guest92946> hey, I used rm on all the folders in my home directory that started with a '.' (period) and restarted.  now all my bookmarks and themes and such are gone, I was wondering if I might have done any actual damage to my software?  The only thing noticeable besides my themes being back to default is that I no longer have color highlighting in the terminal.  all output is just white
[00:53] <nsahoo> hi guys. how do I install regular updates without supplying password?
[00:53] <bigmike> I am still getting use to my new 10.10.......just a week on linux.....
[00:53] <ActionParsnip> dw-: easier to run:  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[00:53] <nsahoo> if I am using update manager?
[00:53] <josephseraos> ActionParsnip, Sorry, I dont uniderstand "reops"
[00:53] <blakkheim> nsahoo: /etc/sudoers
[00:53] <ActionParsnip> josephseraos: those are the servers you get updates from
[00:53] <josephseraos> I'm not American
[00:53] <dw-> ActionParsnip: your e-p is much larger
[00:53] <ActionParsnip> josephseraos: me neither
[00:53] <himanshu> ok
[00:54] <rww> Guest92946: no, you haven't, though you probably want to do "cp /etc/skel/.* ~/" to get back the default .bashrc (the lack of which is why you don't have color highlighting)
[00:54] <ActionParsnip> dw-: -p?
[00:54] <Leon_Nardella> josephseraos, reops > repos > repositories
[00:54] <dw-> ActionParsnip: e-peen.. nm.. jokes. thx for the tip
[00:54] <s0dium> thanks for the help guys
[00:54] <nsahoo> blakkheim: I think I have it correctly setup, what should I look to do there?
[00:54] <gustavderdrache> my system takes anywhere from 5-20 minutes to boot, could someone help me inspect the boot charts?
[00:54] <SoulShadow|Lappy> 5-20 minutes??
[00:54] <josephseraos> Oh, yeah!
[00:54] <gustavderdrache> SoulShadow|Lappy: on a Core i7, no less
[00:55] <IdleOne> rww: don't all the . folders have a .old or .bak that he could cp?
[00:55] <SoulShadow|Lappy> my c2d 5 year old laptop boots in like..2 minutes, heh.
[00:55] <josephseraos> Leon_Nardella, ActionParsnip  But on MySQL's website I can't find it
[00:55] <ActionParsnip> gustavderdrache: run:   dmesg | less    observe the time on the left, when you get large gaps, those are the points of issue. I also suggest you test your RAM
[00:55] <bigmike> ok..when I have a serious issue...I'll be back
[00:55] <ActionParsnip> josephseraos: you don't have to, use software centre and it will be installed
[00:55] <gustavderdrache> ActionParsnip: i've got the output of bootchart if you want to see that
[00:55] <rootsashes> does deleting all the folders that start with a period (.) in your home folder actually do anything besides deleting settings that can just be re-set
[00:55] <ActionParsnip> dw-: how do you mean: e-p ?
[00:56] <rww> rootsashes: no
[00:56] <rootsashes> i deleted them all
[00:56] <rootsashes> and rebooted
[00:56] <Leon_Nardella> josephseraos, http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
[00:56] <rww> rootsashes: assuming you're not using some silly application that stores user data in dotfiles.
[00:56] <crimsun> rootsashes: it might depending if you have things like encrypted Private
[00:56] <ActionParsnip> gustavderdrache: as far as I know, dmesg is just a text based version of that
[00:56] <rootsashes> there was only one folder that it wouldn't let me delete and it said it was being used, but there was nothing inside of it
[00:56] <gustavderdrache> ActionParsnip: yeah, it's just tough to read 20 minutes' worth of boot log info sometimes :P
[00:57] <josephseraos> Yeah. Here I have it. But I want show for my friend
[00:57] <goltoof> any way to encrypt the entire hard drive without reinstalling Ubuntu?
[00:57] <dw-> it did fix my wine system tray. yayz
[00:57] <josephseraos> ActionParsnip,  Yeah. Here I have it. But I want show for my friend
[00:57] <rootsashes> thanks alot y'all
[00:57] <josephseraos> Leon_Nardella, ActionParsnip : Thanks
[00:58] <rootsashes> question:  Why do I no longer have color highlighting in the terminal?  all output is mono-color text
[00:58] <dw-> goltoof: whybother just encrypt home and swap
[00:58] <ActionParsnip> gustavderdrache: its not much text, you'll just have big gaps in the time
[00:58] <rww> rootsashes: because highlighting is set in the .bashrc file that's copied to the home directory of new users. which you deleted. hence me recommending you copy it back from /etc/skel/ earlier.
[00:58] <goltoof> rootsashes,   should be profile option
[00:58] <nsahoo> anyone?
[00:58] <josephseraos> I were looking it for
[00:58] <ActionParsnip> rootsashes: run:  gedit ~/.bashrc
[00:59] <gustavderdrache> ActionParsnip: "task modprobe:816 blocked for more than 120 seconds."
[00:59] <rootsashes> haha yeah.. maybe I shoulda not deleted that stuff
[00:59] <ActionParsnip> josephseraos: like I said, large gaps in the time (its in seconds) on the left colomn
[00:59] <goltoof> dw-, good call
[00:59] <zmbmartin> I just got a hp envy 17 and my number pad is not working any ideas?
[00:59] <ActionParsnip> rootsashes: find this line:    if [ -f /etc/bash_completion ] && ! shopt -oq posix; then
[00:59] <dw-> goltoof: your night will be more pleasant :p
[01:00] <josephseraos> ActionParsnip, ?
[01:00] <rww> ActionParsnip: .bashrc doesn't exist. he deleted it. hence me telling him to copy it back.
[01:00] <ActionParsnip> rootsashes: uncomment ALL of that if statement, save the new file, close gedit and run:   source ~/.bashrc
[01:00] <rww> nobody listens to rww :(
[01:00] <josephseraos> ActionParsnip, Great!
[01:00] <josephseraos> ActionParsnip, Thank you
[01:00] <ActionParsnip> josephseraos: when you find something causing an issue, you can search for guides relating
[01:00] <rootsashes> okay
[01:00] <rachel___> i got ubuntu installing but could someone msg me so i can ask some questions
[01:00] <ActionParsnip> rww: i see :)
[01:01] <rootsashes> aight i copied the file and now it works
[01:01] <ActionParsnip> rachel___: ask in the channel
[01:01] <FunkyDude> hello, i'm trying to copy the FlexSDK to the /opt folder, but that folder only has root permissions, how can I copy the folder there or change my access to it?
[01:01] <rootsashes> any other files that I should copy?  like .profile for instance
[01:01] <rww> rootsashes: I'd just copy everything in /etc/skel/, personally
[01:01] <zmbmartin> Also isn't the intel i7 q720 only a 4 core. Ubuntu system manager show 8 cores
[01:01] <josephseraos> ActionParsnip, I thought it was not more free
[01:01] <rootsashes> /etc/skel is like the skeleton for the home dir eh?
[01:02] <ActionParsnip> zmbmartin: you have hyperthreading so its effective 8 core afaik
[01:02] <rachel___> Actionparsnip i did the partiotions exactly as help screen said but i still have 90 gigs free I didn't want to erase entire drive
[01:02] <dw-> TF2 is going to suck through wine, isn't it?
[01:02] <flan_suse> rootsashes: Yeah, I think of it as a "new user template".

[01:04] <flan_suse> How come laptop-mode under Lucid will not change based on the AC/battery status? The service runs, and the settings are applied with no issues. But when I unplug the AC or plug it back in, laptop-mode doesn't toggle between enabled and disabled.
[01:04] <dw-> 7GB download later... :)

[01:13] <furi> alright, i have the daemon up and running, but the mappings are NOT changing from the default.
[01:14] <seidos> !md5 > boysen
[01:14] <Alonski_> ubottu I didn't understand what actionparsnip wrote can you help me?
[01:14] <boysen> !md5 in my shell console?
[01:15] <Alonski_> hmm a bot
[01:15] <Alonski_> liar
[01:15] <Alonski_> ahh
[01:15] <_BEAST> oR
[01:15] <seidos> boysen, yeah, md5 filename, then compare the values with the md5 file on the web
[01:16] <m_fulder> btw how do I add a new resolution option with a new update rate? I've just tried:  xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1680x1050 -r 70
[01:16] <seidos> Alonski_, ubottu is really a bot.  he has factoids, you can private message him to see if you can find them.
[01:16] <rww> she **
[01:16] <boysen> if the values is the same then burn into cd?
[01:16] <seidos> boysen, indeed
[01:17] <Zero_Shakal> Hi peopples

[01:19] <seidos> !telnet | hayleyw boysen
[01:19] <_F-117> Needs Android BAD
[01:19] <dw-> ive got a weird repeating log line in ~/.xsession-errors  :: http://paste.ubuntu.com/519942/ any ideas?  I think it's causing kdenlive to crash when I browse folders...
[01:19] <seidos> !ot > _F-117
[01:20] <hayleyw> seidos, dont tell me.
[01:20] <boysen> what is telnet is not safe
[01:20] <_F-117> oR
[01:20] <seidos> boysen, it isn't encrypted.  but no one can force you to use ssh
[01:20] <ChogyDan> dw-: are you using 32bit pluggins on 64bit?
[01:20] <dw-> ChogyDan: could be
[01:21] <dw-> ChogyDan: not intentionally
[01:21] <boysen> can someone use my box if im install telnet server?
[01:21] <dw-> ChogyDan: just did .04 to .10 upgrade
[01:21] <LjL> boysen: more than likely.
[01:21] <Chell> After installing vim-gtk and mc, making sure i changed all the update-alternatives vi/vim/view, MC still defaults to vim instead of vimgtk. Does anyone else have this?
[01:22] <wmarone> is it possible to make the live-cd installer use 4K sectors instead of 512B sectors?
[01:22] <LjL> boysen: with telnet, your password (and everything) goes in *plaintext* on the internet, with no encryption at all.
[01:22] <boysen> can they get in without password in telnet
[01:22] <gartral> http://paste.ubuntu.com/519801/ can someone advise on this please? reinstalling ubuntu is not an option at this time
[01:22] <LjL> boysen: they can sniff the password
[01:22] <ChogyDan> dw-: it is weird that it looks like you have nsplugin source code installed to that folder or something
[01:22] <LjL> boysen: so, yes
[01:22] <HaPK_PerCar> ok, I'm trying to run second life in maverick, but seeing the errors in the terminal, the executable script doesn't has the required permissions... so how can I give it this permissions?
[01:22] <dw-> gardar: thats bad
[01:23] <ChogyDan> gartral: have you tried sudo apt-get clean?
[01:23] <dw-> gardar: do some backups
[01:23] <mack> i have a question when i installed wubi the first part installed but it didnt give me a boot screen any ideas?
[01:23] <boysen> i have a bot can i use ssh to communicate with my bot?
[01:23] <gartral> dw-: no cd rom drive, no external storage
[01:23] <conffrey> hi everybody
[01:23] <dw-> gardar: send it to ftp :) dreamhost.com or somethin
[01:24] <HaPK_PerCar> please people... help with this... I need second life running soon!
[01:24] <drebos> anyone have any info on if a wubi will be released for 10.10?
[01:24] <conffrey> I've 10.4 on my HP G62, all worked fine until one day ago, now PC doesn't start, I have a blank screen
[01:24] <HaPK_PerCar> ok, I'm trying to run second life in maverick, but seeing the errors in the terminal, the executable script doesn't has the required permissions... so how can I give it this permissions?
[01:24] <dw-> gardar: i only ever see i/o errors when drives are bad :S
[01:24] <gartral> ChogyDan: apt-get clean just returns me too prompt
[01:24] <ChogyDan> gartral: yes, but do you still have the error?
[01:24] <donm> drebos: it's on the disc image--just download and mount with daemontools or something
[01:24] <seidos> dw-, do you mean gartral?  i don't see a gardar talking
[01:25] <dw-> seidos: yep thx
[01:25] <ChogyDan> HaPK_PerCar: chmod +x script
[01:25] <drebos> oh really? silly me. thanks a bunch donm
[01:25] <boysen> i just finish downloading ubuntu 10.10 via bit torrent when i type !md5 in my console not found
[01:25] <sympt0m> what does "make" actually do?
[01:25] <gartral> dw-: i know this hdd is going, but i'm trying to get a faulty kernel out of my system
[01:25] <sympt0m> vs installing
[01:25] <donm> drebos: no, I was confused too
[01:25] <HaPK_PerCar> ChogyDan, it's already set as executable, I even tried to run it under sudo and it didn't work!
[01:25] <ritzt3ch> is there a way in the CLI to view excel files xls
[01:26] <Auv5> sympt0m, it runs the "makefile" with the default configuration
[01:26] <Auv5> A makefile is something that builds the application
[01:26] <ChogyDan> sympt0m: typically make compiles the program.  install puts the execs in your folder scructure
[01:26] <seidos> boysen, did you click the link that ubottu sent you?  it has a guide on how to do it.
[01:26] <boysen> how do i md5 test i actionparship?
[01:26] <dw-> gartral: if the kernel is on a bad part not sure you will be able to :s
[01:26] <_F-117> oR
[01:27] <seidos> ritzt3ch, that would be cool if there is...maybe there is a way to import the excel file into a mysql database.  only think i can think of.
[01:27] <dunny> ubuntu win shares r really playin up on me
[01:27] <seidos> _F-117, what are you saying?
[01:27] <acovrig> can someone help me mount a raid device?
[01:27] <seidos> *thing
[01:27] <ChogyDan> HaPK_PerCar: maybe you can pastebin the error msg
[01:27] <dunny> its like the connection to the network share just gets tired and stops and then starts working again, sometimes asking me for passwords
[01:27] <sympt0m> alright, so if i have two programs, both in seperate folders in my home folder, and i have "make"'d both of them, how would i go about installing them both so that the executable program of each are in the same folder?
[01:28] <HaPK_PerCar> !pastebin
[01:28] <sympt0m> sorry >.>
[01:28] <dw-> ChogyDan: I haven't rebooted since .04->.10, fwiw. maybe i can reinstall a package or something
[01:28] <gartral> dw-: no, the kernel is fine, but it lacks the module for moving bad data blocks, so now i have 122 bad sectors not being moved
[01:29] <Gumby`> hi all.  does anyone know if there is something wrong with the 10.10 torrent?  I've been sitting at 99.99% now for 30 mins when it only took 15 or so to get to that point.
[01:29] <dunny> neone know why my network shares stops and then starts working again, sometimes asking me for passwords
[01:29] <mack> actually i had that wrong..My computer installed installed ubuntu but didnt give me a choose os screen after reboot any ideas?
[01:29] <HaPK_PerCar> ChogyDan, http://paste.ubuntu.com/519946/
[01:30] <mack> installed-
[01:30] <boysen> md5?
[01:30] <xiven> Can someone please help me with why Wubi always gives an error at 99-100% that says it couldn't retrieve the installation files?
[01:30] <dw-> gartral: you sure that module is necessary?  cant just find some software? :) /ignorance
[01:30] <Sean93> what is the wine channel?
[01:31] <boysen> when i type !md5 in the console not found
[01:31] <furi> Sean93: i think it's #wine, but i think i'm wrong
[01:31] <gartral> dw-: quite sure; disk scans see the errors, but report something along the lines "Misaligned Headers, can't locate blahblahblah.ko"
[01:31] <seidos> boysen, did you click the link that ubottu sent you?
[01:31] <HaPK_PerCar> anyway, I'm downloading the updated version of the second life viewer
[01:31] <gartral> dw-: that's been happening since before the drive was going
[01:32] <xiven> I also notice that pyrun seems to have a big problem at start with error dialogs saying drive not available or something, it probably gives me 15-20 of them "right off the bat". I just keep clicking the mouse and the installer pops up shortly.
[01:32] <boysen> whatis cd5?
[01:32] <boysen> what is cd5
[01:32] <boysen> the program cd5 not installed
[01:33] <boysen> package cd5 from universe
[01:33] <wmarone> hmm
[01:33] <wedwo-> boysen, you're not paying attention- if you need help pay attention to seidos
[01:33] <xiven> cd5 sounds like a command-line utility for reading or writing a cd.
[01:33] <dw-> gartral: youre sort of like kramer in that seinfeld episode where he drives a demo car to E.. man buy a HD. that sucks
[01:33] <AnonJLH> Hey
[01:33] <AnonJLH> I have a question
[01:33] <AnonJLH> I need a different IRC client
[01:33] <EagleScreen_> I try to figure why 'update-grub' is not updating 'grub.cfg' file
[01:34] <ChogyDan> HaPK_PerCar: have you checked the permissions of the cited files?
[01:34] <boysen> sudo apt-get install cd5
[01:34] <AnonJLH> Im not really liking xchat or konversation that much
[01:34] <HaPK_PerCar> ChogyDan, no...
[01:34] <AnonJLH> Any suggestions?
[01:34] <seidos> AnonJLH, irssi, xchat?
[01:34] <ChogyDan> AnonJLH: pidgin
[01:34] <wmarone> is there a way to make ubiquity use a non-512B sector format?
[01:34] <HaPK_PerCar> ChogyDan, but anyway, that's an outdated version of the client
[01:34] <HaPK_PerCar> ChogyDan, got the recent one and it works fine
[01:35] <AnonJLH> I don't want a terminal-based IRC client either
[01:35] <HaPK_PerCar> ChogyDan, thanks anyway
[01:35] <dw-> gartral: wish i had more advice g/l i dont envy ya :p
[01:35] <ChogyDan> np
[01:35] <AnonJLH> It must be a GUI IRC client
[01:35] <UnholyTerror> any ubuntu one users here? trying to use rhythmbox and it loads fireefox to  login?
[01:35] <seidos> xiven, sudo apt-cache search cd5 says it's a checksum checker for tracks on a cd or something
[01:35] <gartral> dw-: that's not very high on my list of priorities.. food befer hardware
[01:35] <dw-> gartral: dont lose the vidso f your ex... ;)
[01:36] <Gumby`> AnonJLH: pidgin can do IRC, xchat is an IRC client, there are more
[01:36] <seidos> AnonJLH, xchat, empathy.  i haven't tried pidgin.  i prefer xchat.
[01:36] <AnonJLH> Can someone point me to a GUI IRC client for ubuntu?
[01:36] <ChogyDan> gartral: doesn't look easy: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+question/12093
[01:36] <ChogyDan> !pidgin > AnonJLH
[01:36] <AnonJLH> I don't like xchat
[01:36] <sakekasi> AnonJLH use empathy
[01:36] <Brown_Mouse> AnonJLH,Opera chat
[01:36] <furi> AnonJLH: i think XChat is what you're looking for
[01:36] <AnonJLH> I DON'T WANT XCHAT
[01:36] <furi> AnonJLH: but i haven't really used a lot of IRC clients
[01:36] <furi> AnonJLH: sorry.
[01:37] <seidos> !caps | AnonJLH
[01:37] <sakekasi> AnonJLH add an irc account to empathy chat.
[01:37] <Gumby`> AnonJLH: perhaps you should state what you do/dont want in your request
[01:37] <Out_Cold> weird question, but if i want to unpack an iso and add some stuff before burning, just mount the iso and burn a new data cd?
[01:37] <seidos> i actually thought empathy was pretty nice when i used maverick for a bit
[01:38] <Out_Cold> pidgin ftw
[01:38] <UnholyTerror> no, you have to chroot it first... then add your data
[01:38] <seidos> ftw ftf
[01:38] <AnonJLH> I don't want xchat, konversation, or empathy. I also don't want any browser-based clients or terminal-based client. I want a nice GUI IRC client...
[01:38] <UnholyTerror> ???
[01:38] <Gumby`> lol
[01:39] <blakkheim> AnonJLH: why not terminal-based? it's a text-only protocol..
[01:39] <xcalibur> hi there, can anyone tell me how to prevent php from sending mails from<EMAIL_ADDRESS>?
[01:39] <AnonJLH> NO TERMINAL
[01:39] <Gumby`> xchat, empathy, pidgin are ALL GUI IRC clients
[01:39] <seidos> AnonJLH, mirc in wine?  :)
[01:39] <Out_Cold> UnholyTerror, for me? so mount then chroot?? even if it's just a cd?
[01:39] <Brown_Mouse> AnonJLH,Do you want jam on it too?
[01:39] <multipass> AnonJLH: Kvirc
[01:39] <Out_Cold> use finch it has an amazing gui
[01:39] <AnonJLH> WINE is giving me problems
[01:39] <blakkheim> AnonJLH: no need to use caps again, and you didn't answer the question
[01:39] <sakekasi> how do i change the default jre from openjdk to sun-java6-jdk? I have already installed sun-java6-jdk
[01:39] <wmarone> AnonJLH has some crazy terminal fear
[01:39] <Gumby`> mirc is a HORRID irc client
[01:39] <sakekasi> I second Gumpy
[01:40] <multipass> AnonJLH: kvirc is very good, check the screenshots
[01:40] <Out_Cold> mirc is irc as ubuntu is for linux... easy for beginners
[01:40] <UnholyTerror> google it... you have to enter the iso as a filesystem, make your changes, then burn.
[01:40] <Out_Cold> cool thanks UnholyTerror
[01:40] <wmarone> and like ubuntu it keeps you from stabbing your eyes out ;)
[01:40] <xcalibur> can someone tell me how to prevent php from sending from<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[01:40] <sakekasi> how do i change the default jre from openjdk to sun-java6-jdk? I have already installed sun-java6-jdk
[01:40] <multipass> anytthing that keeps u from stabbign eyes out is pretty coo
[01:40] <blakkheim> !repeat | sakekasi xcalibur
[01:40] <furi> ew... the empathy client is kinda weird on irc...
[01:40] <UnholyTerror> you can run updates and everything as if the iso is your current filesystem.
[01:41] <furi> xchat is so different
[01:41] <AnonJLH> I saw... Empathy is a "no"
[01:41] <xiven> I wouldn't call pidgin much of an IRC client, it's not much more then a window with the three essential text areas.
[01:41] <AnonJLH> Checking pidgin
[01:41] <UnholyTerror> AnonJLH, what is the problem?
[01:41] <multipass> http://www.kvirc.net/
[01:41] <Out_Cold> pidgin's irc is the same as empathy
[01:41] <Out_Cold> nothing to look at
[01:42] <xiven> Probably because Empathy is based on Pidgin
[01:42] <AnonJLH> Nevermibd then
[01:42] <Gumby`> AnonJLH: what are your requirements for your IRC client besides GUI?
[01:42] <AnonJLH> No to pidgin as well
[01:42] <seidos> AnonJLH, there's a list of irc clients here:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
[01:42] <rudy__> i'm noticing that when I remove a program through the ubuntu software center, it is leaving behind litter in places like /etc.. is there a way I can remove software that does not leave behind all this annoying litter!!
[01:42] <furi> AnonJLH: picky picky picky
[01:42] <AnonJLH> I don't want xchat, konversation, or empathy. I also don't want any browser-based clients or terminal-based client. I want a nice GUI IRC client... Also, no pidgin
[01:42] <blakkheim> rudy__: aptitude purge pkgname
[01:42] <muaddib_> has anyone ever experience DNS lookup via IPv6 even with ipv6 is configured on your machine
[01:42] <rudy__> for example i removed ardour2 but ardour  -related folders are still found randomly everwhere
[01:42] <ChogyDan> AnonJLH: why not pidgin?
[01:43] <xiven> I wouldn't mind the ability to skin or theme pidgin aside of the gtk/gnome theming system.
[01:43] <she_dyed> AnonJLH: theres alwasy flash =)
[01:43] <blakkheim> AnonJLH: many suggestions have been made already, i think you're too picky
[01:43] <rudy__> how dO i find out the package name
[01:43] <Gumby`> AnonJLH: you've been given multiple GUI clients.  what do you need in your client that the ones posted do not have?
[01:43] <UnholyTerror> Out_Cold, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[01:43] <AnonJLH> Im basing it off of what others have said
[01:43] <seidos> AnonJLH, just check out that list for yourself.  you can install the packages and see which one you like
[01:43] <dominicdinada> so 10.10 is all messed up ? Noticed that when i edit network files it zeros them out it will let me read them no problem but when i hit save it zeros out the file. and the ~ backup
[01:43] <AnonJLH> Everyone seems to be complaining about the ones given
[01:43] <xiven> AnonJLH: You might give HydraIRC a try, I believe it runs on Linux. It's much better then pidgin's bare effort.
[01:43] <Out_Cold> thanks UnholyTerror was just looking for that
[01:43] <rudy__> thanks
[01:44] <Gumby`> AnonJLH: ah, well you best try them out yourself.  its only a few clicks or command like words away
[01:44] <AnonJLH> Linux or ubuntu? There are core differences
[01:44] <Gumby`> lots of ppl hate Ubunut too.  yet, you are here
[01:44] <Gumby`> Ubuntu
[01:44] <AnonJLH> Lol
[01:44] <AnonJLH> Okay
[01:44] <Out_Cold> ahhh UnholyTerror but this is for a live cd... i wonder if i'm not loading a live environment if it follows the same standards
[01:44] <Gumby`> try em out, see what suits you
[01:44] <Brown_Mouse> AnonJLH,weechat is cool :D
[01:45] <AnonJLH> I've checked out weechat
[01:45] <AnonJLH> Almost what in looking for
[01:45] <UnholyTerror> ???
[01:45] <Gumby`> isnt weechat command line?
[01:45] <she_dyed> +1 weechat
[01:46] <AnonJLH> Dammit
[01:46] <blakkheim> spams "no terminal" in all caps and then says weechat is almost what he wants
[01:46] <Brown_Mouse> yep
[01:46] <blakkheim> lol
[01:46] <UnholyTerror> Out_Cold, what?
[01:46] <Gumby`> AnonJLH: dont phear the command line
[01:46] <Gumby`> embrace it
[01:46] <Gumby`> it is your frned
[01:46] <Gumby`> friend
[01:46] <rudy__> this is driving me insane.. i need to delete like 3/4's of these files because I straight don't use the software!!  @_@
[01:46] <rudy__> and there is so much litter!
[01:47] <rudy__> my bad
[01:47] <blakkheim> rudy__: welcome to ubuntu
[01:47] <rudy__> rofl
[01:47] <seidos> !ot > rudy__
[01:47] <AnonJLH> what if terminal gives me a virus?
[01:47] <dominicdinada> !ot | Gumby`
[01:47]  * Gumby` thinks AnonJLH might just be a troll
[01:47] <blakkheim> ^
[01:47]  * furi thinks Gumby` is true
[01:47] <UnholyTerror> Out_Cold, I don't really think it matters if it's a livecd or not.  Do kids use this room?
[01:50] <dominicdinada> rudy__: this will wipe everything  dpkg -l | awk  '/^rc/{print $2}' | sudo xargs dpkg -P
[01:50] <blakkheim> furi: weechat is that way too
[01:50] <nematic> hi, appreciate your help with this - on booting 10.10 installation media (second disc i've tried), i get the following " (initramfs) mount: mounting /dev/loop0 on //filesystem.squashfs failed: input/output error .. can not mount /dev/loop0 (/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs) on //filesystem.squashfs "
[01:50] <rudy__> xangua: yes, but I am also noticing left behind files in places like /etc
[01:50] <AnonJLH> What's with all you puddles who can't handle language?
[01:50] <Out_Cold> furi, that's irssi's best feature
[01:50] <seidos> !ot > AnonJLH
[01:50] <AnonJLH> STOP
[01:50] <seidos> !caps > AnonJLH
[01:50] <Gumby`> lol
[01:50] <blakkheim> rofl
[01:50] <HaPK_PerCar> hey people
[01:50] <furi> Out_Cold: well, idk... sorta got used to all of vista's stuff that never even lets you know about its cmd
[01:50] <blakkheim> i knew someone would do that
[01:50] <Seeker`> AnonJLH: Yes, kids do use the chatroom
[01:51] <Seeker`> seidos: stop that
[01:51] <dominicdinada> furi: offtopic discussion about clients is not a support topic
[01:51] <iflema> rudy__ or synaptic has a way to remove config files aswell "mark for complete removal"
[01:51] <furi> dominicdinada: my opologies
[01:51] <furi> dominicdinada: apologies* wow, can't spell
[01:51] <rudy__> dominicdinada:  does that wipe everything on the HDD or just left behind files from programs that have been removed?
[01:51] <frank__> anybody get toshiba laptop webcams to work?
[01:51] <AnonJLH> So... Does anyone have the IRC client I want?
[01:51] <dominicdinada> rudy__: it flushes all programs removed and there orphans
[01:52] <j_> hey all
[01:52] <dominicdinada> rudy__: no it doesnt wipe the drive
[01:52] <UnholyTerror> AnonJLH, now you stop
[01:52] <AnonJLH> anyone?
[01:52] <dominicdinada> so 10.10 is all messed up ? Noticed that when i edit network files it zeros them out it will let me read them no problem but when i hit save it zeros out the file. and the ~ backup
[01:52] <furi> blakkheim: one last question: how do i start it up? weechat isn't a command, apparently
[01:52] <iflema> AnonJLH what do you want it to do?
[01:52] <blakkheim> furi: i'm not familiar with it, i use irssi
[01:52] <rudy__> dominicdinada should I use sudo to run that command as root?
[01:52] <AnonJLH> Is 10.10 a version of the client?
[01:52] <dominicdinada> rudy__: i do :/
[01:52] <furi> blakkheim: alright. i'll just give irssi another go.
[01:53] <furi> blakkheim: it'd be useful to have a notification area icon, however
[01:53] <HaPK_PerCar> I'm trying to install the driver for my Ethernet chipset from the driver's source, but I can't follow the instructions correctly... something about not having configured the main linux headers and a missing autoconf.h... I'm on maverick, ethernet is an atheros AR8152
[01:53] <furi> blakkheim: and notifications
[01:53] <rudy__> alright y'all thanks again
[01:53] <dominicdinada> sigh 10 10 busted google chrome and all network files had 3 open with 1000 - 4000 lines of code and bam it zeroed them
[01:53] <blakkheim> furi: maybe a gui client would suite you better. notifications and all that stuff isn't really what irssi/weechat is for
[01:53] <sympt0m> super noob question. what type are files that have an icon that looks like a diamond with gears? are they .bin? and how do i install them?
[01:53] <AnonJLH> I don't want xchat, konversation, or empathy. I also don't want any browser-based clients or terminal-based client. I want a nice GUI IRC client...
[01:53] <dominicdinada> !ot > blakkheim
[01:53] <furi> blakkheim: alrighty then; i'll stick with xchat.
[01:53] <blakkheim> furi: they're great when you just have ssh shell access to a machine and you can run them with screen
[01:53] <nematic> any ideas? no idea if this squashfs filesystem mount fail is common but i've managed to install previous distros with this disc drive before
[01:53] <Seeker`> AnonJLH: I think thats pretty much all of them.
[01:53] <blakkheim> dominicdinada: i have PMs on ignore :)
[01:54] <AnonJLH> All of what?
[01:54] <UnholyTerror> so what's wrong with xchat?!
[01:54] <Seeker`> AnonJLH: the major clients
[01:54] <AnonJLH> I didn't see the list you posted, sorry?
[01:54] <she_dyed> color palette on xchat is daft, for one thing
[01:54] <Seeker`> AnonJLH: the list you posted that you don't want to use
[01:54] <xangua> AnonJLH: then open the software center and look for some client you like
[01:55] <j_>  4 machines running ubuntu in my lan and none of them can see each other or connect to the other machines running windows. I dont care about the windows part for now but how do i allow the linux machines to show on the network?
[01:55] <xangua> !irc | AnonJLH
[01:55] <AnonJLH> Where is the center at? Is it in My Documents somewhere?
[01:55] <seidos> Seeker`, did you mean part from this channel?
[01:55] <Seeker`> seidos: no
[01:55] <dominicdinada> sigh 10 10 busted google chrome and all network files had 3 open with 1000 - 4000 lines of code and bam it zeroed them
[01:55] <dominicdinada> sigh 10 10 busted google chrome and all network files had 3 open with 1000 - 4000 lines of code and bam it zeroed them
[01:55] <furi> blakkheim: oh, wonderful, irrsi looks GREAT in one of the full-screen terminals
[01:55] <dominicdinada> so 10.10 is all messed up ? Noticed that when i edit network files it zeros them out it will let me read them no problem but when i hit save it zeros out the file. and the ~ backup
[01:55] <dominicdinada> opps
[01:55] <FloodBot3> dominicdinada: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:56] <blakkheim> furi: yeah, i really love irssi, probably won't ever use anything else
[01:56] <xangua> AnonJLH: aplications>software center
[01:56] <dominicdinada> !ot | blakkheim
[01:56] <gartral_> also, in on a very patchy 3g connection, how do i poke around to restart a stalled download?
[01:56] <seidos> dominicdinada, i'm sure it's working for some people, so i don't know if i'd say it's "messed up"
[01:56] <frank__> has anyone been able to get toshiba's builtin webcam to work?
[01:56] <xangua> !manual | you might also want to read it AnonJLH
[01:56] <AnonJLH> I think I deleted my Applications directory... Whoops
[01:56] <imperfect-> Anyone here having issues with vmwaer workstation being a hooker due to kernel source issues in 10.10?
[01:56] <blakkheim> furi: if you ssh into remote systems a lot it would be good to learn about gnu screen - goes great with irssi/weechat
[01:56] <seidos> frank__, i have a u305-s7448 satellite, and it works in cheese...audio isn't presently working though for some reason from built in mic in cheese, but it works in sound recorder
[01:57] <furi> blakkheim: is there a way to create an application launcher that brings me to one of the terminals?
[01:57] <furi> blakkheim: gnu screen?
[01:57] <frank__> seidos, cheese?
[01:57] <imperfect-> Also: ever since I've done dist-upgrade my drives appear to be changing designation
[01:57] <imperfect-> like right now they're /dev/sda
[01:57] <blakkheim> furi: yeah, you can add an item that opens xterm or whatever terminal you use and executes irssi
[01:57] <seidos> frank__, sudo apt-get install cheese i think.  it's a webcam software
[01:57] <imperfect-> but on bootup they think they're /dev/dc
[01:57] <blakkheim> !info screen | furi
[01:57] <imperfect-> er dsc
[01:58] <furi> blakkheim: well, i'd actually like to bring myself to a fallback terminal, which i already have irssi on. or is that a good idea?
[01:58] <seidos> !info cheese | frank__
[01:58] <frank__> downloading it now
[01:58] <AnonJLH> FUCK ALL OF YOU NERDS. CANT EVEN FUCKING ANSWER MY GODDAMN QUESTIONS BECAUSE YOU ALL ARE SO FUCKING BUSY DOING YOUR OWN DAMN SHIT TO CARE FOR SOME TINY ASS-WIPE LIKE ME
[01:58] <blakkheim> furi: screen would be great for that
[01:58] <blakkheim> !ops
[01:58] <dominicdinada> seidos: loosing all of google chrome, tried purging reinstalling nothing, tried software center versions nothing, lost 3 weeks work in 10 mins
[01:58] <sympt0m> super noob question. what type are files that have an icon that looks like a diamond with gears? are they .bin? and how do i install them?
[01:59] <blakkheim> sympt0m: what is the file extension?
[01:59] <dominicdinada> blakkheim: while your at it you have been one of 5 people flooding the channel with offtopic discussions on irc clients
[01:59] <sympt0m> i'm not sure, that's the problem. it just says the file name
[01:59] <sympt0m> and i dont know how to make the file extensions show like i have on my windows machine
[01:59] <nematic> installation media //filesystem.squashfs mount fail...anyone?
[01:59] <blakkheim> sympt0m: run "file /path/to/file" in a terminal to see what kind it is
[01:59] <wmarone> man wtf
[01:59] <blakkheim> sympt0m: it's probably a binary or a bash script
[01:59] <seidos> dominicdinada, sorry to hear that.  so you tried chromium too?  no luck?  i don't know what you mean by "losing" won't run?
[02:00] <wmarone> why can parted read my disk normally, but the installer can't?
[02:00] <she_dyed> because parted reads from someplace else
[02:01] <sympt0m> elf 32bit executable
[02:01] <blakkheim> sympt0m: then it's just a binary
[02:01] <sympt0m> how do i install that file?
[02:01] <imperfect-> http://pastebin.ca/index.php
[02:01] <furi> blakkheim: screen?
[02:01] <blakkheim> sympt0m: depends on what it is
[02:01] <furi> blakkheim: sorry, i'm really unfamiliar
[02:01] <blakkheim> furi: yeah what about it?
[02:01] <imperfect-> Can someone take a look at that and tell me what I can do to clean it up so I can get vmware to like me again?
[02:01] <dominicdinada> no editing network files via kate... zeroed out the file and backups, hit save tried opening the file in firefox then noticed it was blank... reopened the file in kate/ blank ctrl h'd for hidden all 0 bytes
[02:01] <sympt0m> got it from a .tar, "make"'d it, now what
[02:02] <dominicdinada> seidos: no editing network files via kate... zeroed out the file and backups, hit save tried opening the file in firefox then noticed it was blank... reopened the file in kate/ blank ctrl h'd for hidden all 0 bytes
[02:02] <furi> sympt0m: the process is usually "sudo su" then "./configure" then "make" then "make install" after extracting the tar
[02:03] <sympt0m> so what can i do now? or do i have to redo the whole process?
[02:03] <blakkheim> furi: basically you run screen and it looks like a regular terminal. you can run irssi in that and then detach from it and it's still running, then you can reconnect to it later
[02:03] <Guest32832> Hi, just upgraded to meerkat. now my bottom panel bar is empty except for the recycle bin icon at the far right. i can't see my open programs on the panel, nor do i have my multiple desktop widget. Google search was fruitless. Suggestions?
[02:03] <dominicdinada> seidos: tried chromium from the software center boots up and closes just as the google download
[02:03] <Bossmanbeta> ...is it possible to create an LVM over two USB hard disks, mounted in fstab manually (not auto-detected), drives that are always connected?
[02:03] <seidos> dominicdinada, don't get it.  i'll bow out now, hopefully someone else understands.
[02:03] <furi> blakkheim: yes, i know, but i'd like an applet that, when i click it, it goes to a pre-specified screen, like, an alternative to ctrl+alt+F3
[02:03] <wmarone> no, I've got it now
[02:03] <Sean93> what is a good free download manager for google chrome on ubuntu?
[02:04] <dominicdinada> open up a file and type Hello World.... hit save... file is 0 bytes lol
[02:04] <xangua> !panels | freebased
[02:04] <wmarone> the installer and gparted aren't reading the device sector size, so they do the math wrong :(
[02:04] <dominicdinada> Fail upgrade
[02:04] <blakkheim> furi: oh. hmm, you could make it open a terminal that reconnects to the screen session with "screen -r"
[02:04] <furi> blakkheim: and after -r, i put the number of the screen, right? or am i not getting this?
[02:04] <nematic> seriously can someone tell me why wubi just says 'permission denied' after extract, and alternatively burning installation media to disc gives me squashfs mount errors at boot? can't get any install method to work
[02:05] <blakkheim> furi: if you only have one screen session open, just -r will work, but if you have multiple then you need the session number which you can get from "screen -ls"
[02:05] <freebased> xangua, that fixed my bottom panel, but i lost my icons in the top panel :/
[02:05] <freebased> not too big of a deal for me to reconstruct
[02:05] <freebased> thanks for the help
[02:06] <Sean93> what is a good free download manager for google chrome on ubuntu?
[02:06] <furi> blakkheim: it returned "There is no screen to be resumed."
[02:06] <blakkheim> furi: you have to start one first :P
[02:06] <osmosis2> Sean93, google for chrome extensions maybe
[02:06] <furi> blakkheim: but i did, it's on ctrl+alt+f3
[02:06] <furi> blakkheim: and irssi is started up on it
[02:06] <blakkheim> furi: did you detach from it with ctrl+a+d
[02:07] <furi> blakkheim: no, actually
[02:07] <furi> blakkheim: i'll try that
[02:07] <kk9822> hi
[02:07] <Jazzi> hey
[02:07] <furi> blakkheim: ctrl+a+d does nothing
[02:07] <blakkheim> furi: you need to detach all of them for -r to work, or you can just use -x to join the same session
[02:07] <kk9822> i want toknow why this error comes when i run one softwareActive Server Pages error 'ASP 0126'
[02:07] <kk9822> Include file not found
[02:07] <kk9822> The include file '/angelconnection/connection.asp' was not found.
[02:08] <multipass> whats the first thing i should do if ubuntu wont run live or install on my computer? also i have ubuntu on a hard drive and it wont load--- It freezes during the startup of all 3 of these things
[02:08] <furi> blakkheim: i don't understand...
[02:09] <furi> blakkheim: sorry
[02:09] <blakkheim> furi: while you have screen open with irssi in your virtual console, open a terminal in your X session and run "screen -x"
[02:09] <furi> blakkheim: when i do that, it simply restarts that screen
[02:09] <blakkheim> furi: and it will take you to the same one
[02:10] <furi> blakkheim: now it's saying there's none to be attached
[02:10] <blakkheim> furi: does "screen -ls" list any?
[02:10] <furi> blakkheim: so, i go into a fallback terminal and press ctrl+a+d. it restarts that terminal and i log back in. then i press ctrl+alt+F7 to return to X. i then open a terminal and put down screen -x, which returns what i said.
[02:10] <furi> blakkheim: trying that
[02:10] <UnholyTerror> multipass, bad hardware
[02:11] <furi> blakkheim: No Sockets found in /var/run/screen/S-furi.
[02:11] <multipass> brand new up to date hardware, might be too new for ubuntu
[02:11] <blakkheim> furi: it looks like you don't have any screens open then
[02:11] <starn> Why wont Ubuntu wont let me make file trusted? I'm trying to use wine on a game.
[02:11] <furi> blakkheim: but...i have the F3 one open...
[02:12] <blakkheim> furi: it would be listed then, maybe you just ran irssi in a regular console by accident

[02:12] <blakkheim> furi: ok, mind if i PM you?
[02:12] <furi> blakkheim: all i know is ctrl+alt+F3 brings up a login screen on a terminal, and i log in, and i can command irssi.
[02:12] <SingAlong> I've had hell of a time with acer laptops (they use some obsolete wifi cards)
[02:12] <furi> blakkheim: let me get on xchat really fast

[02:22] <starn> d3drocks i have it installed on external harddrive as well as windows.. i have never had this issue before..
[02:22] <she_dyed> frank__: oh you mean apps for webcam?

[02:23] <frank__> no. i need my toshiba webcam to work
[02:23] <she_dyed> Autonomiser: its running on a real OS

[02:24] <Autonomiser> she_dyed i hear you
[02:24] <Sean93> in "chmod a+x" what is the a for?
[02:24] <Charbel> ikonia,
[02:24] <dominicdinada> archive?
[02:24] <Charbel> fglrx is the name of the closed-source, proprietary driver from AMD/ATI. It conflicts with the open-source "radeon" driver. If the "fglrx" kernel module is loaded at boot, X will be able to start using the "radeon" driver but "Direct Rendering" (DRI) will be disabled. This results in a severe performance reduction. Use System->Administration->Hardware Drivers to make sure "ATI accelerated graphics driver" is not in use.
[02:24] <d3drocks> thanks again unholyterror
[02:24] <d3drocks> I will look at taht right now
[02:24] <judax> Sean93: "all"
[02:25] <UnholyTerror> I didn't look deep
[02:25] <Sean93> judax:  when should it be used?
[02:25] <starn> i am using 1.3 i believe of it is that latest? for aptget says it is..
[02:25] <she_dyed> frank__: was it detected, any indicator lights, does dmesg/lshw/lsusb show the  make and model
[02:25] <frank__> it's built in, so no lights
[02:26] <judax> Sean93: chmod a+x would set the executable bit for "all", where all=user, group and other

[02:27] <UnholyTerror> gustavderdrache, drop windows!
[02:27] <d3drocks> starn: you might need to install it fresh into wine unfortunately. thats the only way ive ever gotten around problems like that

[02:30] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: just trying to find the culprit for my boot times :)
[02:30] <UnholyTerror> what part of boot takes so long?
[02:30] <rammyIRC> how to download streaming media from URL from command line
[02:30] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: it varies
[02:30] <gustavderdrache> it was modprobe once, sometimes it's plymouth, ...
[02:31] <UnholyTerror> press alt f2 during boot
[02:31] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: wouldn't that just be the same information i can find in dmesg?
[02:31] <UnholyTerror> duh!:)
[02:32] <starn> why is it ubuntu won't let me set programs to be executable? everytime i click to allow it unchecks it self
[02:32] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: then i can read that info now and save about 20 minutes' worth of work :)
[02:32] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: I also installed bootchart, so i can share pictures if you want to see 'em
[02:32] <MarathonDove> I can't find Chatzilla in my list of applications. Halp?
[02:33] <rammyIRC> can i use wget
[02:33] <rammyIRC> ?
[02:33] <she_dyed> starn: i think its because its on the windows partition and they dont really save permissions like nix does
[02:33] <UnholyTerror> i don't kno what the problem would be
[02:33] <Sean93> should i install java in /usr/java or my home directory?
[02:33] <MonthOLDpickle> guys purge command ore remove?
[02:33] <MonthOLDpickle> or***
[02:33] <starn> but what about my external hd? it won't let me on there and i never had this issue before in the past..
[02:34] <d3drocks> aplay -l
[02:34] <d3drocks> aplay: device_list:223: no soundcards found...
[02:34] <d3drocks> agh, thats annoying
[02:34] <starn> how would i give my self full power to force these programs to run using wine?
[02:34] <UnholyTerror> try reinstalling alsa???
[02:35] <d3drocks> alright
[02:35] <UnholyTerror> look in synaptics to see what your system is using - reinstall those.
[02:36] <d3drocks> its alsa for sure
[02:36] <seidos> d3drocks, sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils force-reload or cat /proc/asound/cards?
[02:36] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, http://www.bootchart.org/
[02:36] <Maahes_> Anyone: Does devilspie work with Compiz?
[02:36] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: it's been installed for awhile, i've got a coupld of renders
[02:36] <gustavderdrache> *couple
[02:37] <seidos> and
[02:37]  * Maahes_ is at 8 days uptime on his laptop, w00t
[02:37] <frank__> she_dyed, sorry nothing
[02:38] <she_dyed> yeah frank__ at this point i'd google in other forums not just ubuntu to see if there is hope
[02:38] <d3drocks> seidos: already tried the force reload, and proc/asound/cards lists: chris@chris-desktop:/etc/init.d$ cat /proc/asound/cards

[02:40] <larry> hello all
[02:41] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: i put the most recent boot charts in my Dropbox, interested?
[02:41] <earthshade> Hello darkness my old friend
[02:41] <Omen_20> Hi. When installing some development environments you are told to add stuff to your Windows path! What is the equivalent in Linux? I need to be able to use commands from any directory.
[02:41] <Sean93> where is google chrome installed in ubbuntu?
[02:41] <Maahes_> sure :)
[02:41] <Dr_Willis> Omen_20:  echo $PATH
[02:42] <Dr_Willis> Omen_20:  export the PATH variable as needed/set it as needed.
[02:42] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: tarball or list of files?
[02:42] <rammyIRC> do u guyz how to download streaming media in linux
[02:42] <Maahes_> tarball is fine :)
[02:42] <Dr_Willis> rammyIRC:  depends on the stream.
[02:42] <earthshade> Still trying to find those drivers...
[02:42] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/570560/bootchart.tgz
[02:42] <UnholyTerror> d3drocks, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/232362
[02:44] <d3drocks> ok, instead of messing with this i think im gunna go to ubuntu 10.10
[02:44] <mack> how can i install adobe flash on a amd 64-bit
[02:44] <d3drocks> and work from there then
[02:45] <xangua> mack sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[02:45] <Dr_Willis> mack:  i normally install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package.  that pulls in flash and other things you proberly want.
[02:45] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, what's the stats of the machine?
[02:46] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: 2 1TB Seagates, Intel Core i7 975, an embarrassingly large volume of RAM, and an Nvidia GTX 295
[02:46] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: to summarize: "runs Crysis well"
[02:47] <mack> how do i do that dr_Willis
[02:47] <Omen_20> thanks Dr_Willis
[02:47] <Maahes_> ja rly, your boot time should not be 300+s, *looking around*
[02:47] <blakkheim> gustavderdrache: considered an SSD?
[02:47] <Dr_Willis> mack:  its in  the package manager tools.. or use the 'sudo apt-get install PACKAGENAME' type method.
[02:47] <gustavderdrache> blakkheim: I have, but my boot times used to be pretty awesome
[02:47] <starn> oh oh could my issue be due to fact of me not logging back into windows since i installed ubuntu?!
[02:47] <d3drocks> 0_o 65 kbps to the ubuntu repos. guess i'll check back in the morning
[02:48] <kion> I found that I can program rules to be added to UFW with the at command...
[02:48] <matts45acp> hello
[02:48] <kion> say... AT 16:00
[02:49] <kion> ufw allos ftp
[02:49] <kion> it works
[02:49] <kion> but i cannot delete a rule
[02:49] <kion> with at
[02:49] <wilfrido> Speak português
[02:49] <kion> because ufw asks a question  .. do you really want to delete rule 1 ?
[02:50] <Gryllida> Is Synaptic the default package manager in Ubuntu prior to 10.04?
[02:50] <wilfrido> alguem fala portugues aki
[02:50] <blakkheim> Gryllida: synaptic is just a gui
[02:50] <kion> how can we handle that?
[02:50] <tortoise> I'm using this (http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/DNS-HOWTO-2.html) little howto for a dns server, and they're saying that I should be able to telnet <IP_ADDRESS> and get my own machine, but I dont' think it's working like it should.
[02:50] <blakkheim> Gryllida: it uses the debian package manager, apt
[02:50] <tortoise> It gives me the message telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused.
[02:50] <tortoise> And when I try to ssh it, it works, but it requires a root password which I don't know.
[02:51] <tortoise> that is, when I sudo ssh <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:51] <Gryllida> blakkheim, it doesn't answer my question, I do know it's the gui for apt
[02:51] <blakkheim> Gryllida: your question was "is synaptic the default package manager [..]" and it's not a package manager at all
[02:51] <MechanicalYeti> In a pinch, you could use sudo to set a root password.
[02:51] <furi> hello?
[02:51] <furi> testing irssi
[02:52] <furi> i am in the #ubuntu channel, correct?
[02:52] <blakkheim> furi: yes
[02:52] <furi> blakkheim: i love this already
[02:52] <she_dyed> yes furi
[02:52] <tortoise> MechanicalYeti: was that directed to me?
[02:53] <MechanicalYeti> Yeah, sorry, should've specified.
[02:53] <tortoise> MechanicalYeti: That's alright, but how do I do that? Because it's asking for a<EMAIL_ADDRESS>password?
[02:53] <furi> blakkheim: is there a way to scroll through the chat?
[02:53] <blakkheim> furi: page up/down
[02:53] <furi> blakkheim: thanks
[02:53] <Gryllida> blakkheim, what does a package manager do than, I thought apt is one
[02:54] <Gryllida> then
[02:54] <blakkheim> Gryllida: apt is one, but synaptic is just a GUI frontend, it doesn't actually do the work
[02:54] <furi> blakkheim: what about the color of highlighted text? like, when someone says furi: blahblahblah
[02:54] <furi> blakkheim: i mean, changing it
[02:54] <blakkheim> furi: i don't know offhand, but irssi.org has some great documentation
[02:54] <MechanicalYeti> sudo su
[02:54] <furi> blakkheim: thank you
[02:54] <Gryllida> was synaptic the default gui to anage applications prior to 10.04, whent he software center appeared?
[02:55] <UnholyTerror> yes
[02:55] <MechanicalYeti> then passwd
[02:55] <Gryllida> the**
[02:55] <blakkheim> Gryllida: synaptic is a gui for apt for noobs to easier manage packages, and the "software center" is an even more noob-friendly gui that does more or less the same thing
[02:55] <Gryllida> UnholyTerror, is this 'yes' to me?
[02:55] <raj-k> I loaded Ubuntu onto my flash drive with Unetbootin, and start up my computer. I press "Try Ubuntu without Installing", screen is going black. No keys do anything. What should I do?
[02:55] <UnholyTerror> yees
[02:55] <tortoise> MechanicalYeti: Wouldn't that just change my own root password? Or is <IP_ADDRESS> the same as me?
[02:55] <sudoer> when I su to someone else, why doesnt /etc/profile get run?
[02:55] <Gryllida> tortoise,  <IP_ADDRESS> the same as me, yes
[02:56] <mack> dr_Willis when i put my password in it gets stuck any thoughts
[02:56] <sudoer> I have echo "test"  in /etc/profile and it never spits out nor seems to run
[02:56] <tortoise> Gryllida: thanks
[02:56] <jiohdi> raj-k: how long?
[02:56] <raj-k> jiohdi: been 15 minutes
[02:56] <Gryllida> blakkheim, so its getting a boob-friendly os, I see
[02:56] <Gryllida> noob**
[02:56] <blakkheim> Gryllida: yes exactly
[02:56] <blakkheim> sudoer: try /bin/echo
[02:57] <jiohdi> raj-k: I would say your unentbootin did not work, try to redo it
[02:57] <tortoise> And when I'm telnet'd into myself (<IP_ADDRESS>) as root, how do I get out and back to my usual user@laptop_name: prompt
[02:57] <Gryllida> tortoise, ctrl+d, or 'q', or ctrl+c
[02:57] <blakkheim> tortoise: exit
[02:57] <raj-k> jiohdi: Are there a better software for making bootable usb?
[02:57] <sudoer> blakkheim: no, it doesnt run with /bin/echo 'test'
[02:57] <tortoise> Thank you, for some reason, I can never remember that lol
[02:57]  * Gryllida wonders which one worked
[02:57] <jiohdi> raj-k: there must be, but I am not sure which one
[02:58] <sudoer> the first line of /etc/profile says: # /etc/profile: system-wide .profile file for the Bourne shell (sh(1))
[02:58] <sudoer> does /etc/profile get run when suing to another user ?
[02:59] <tortoise> Gryllida: I used exit, if that was directed to me.
[02:59] <starn> how do i force this to apply permissions? it won't let me everytime i click apply permissions it reverts to old ones.
[03:00] <matts45acp> can somone tell me a good irc chat client ot use
[03:00] <Gryllida> matts45acp, irssi, xchat, empathy, pidgin
[03:01] <GSF1200S> does anyone know how to get the layer option to work in openbox?
[03:01] <Gryllida> matts45acp, try them all by installing them in the software center, and pick the one you feel more comfortable with
[03:01] <mack> xangua flash is installed but its not stable
[03:01] <GSF1200S> it works for me but I cannot get a friends computer to show it
[03:01] <GSF1200S> need always on top
[03:01] <MechanicalYeti> I don't like empathy for irc.
[03:01] <Gryllida> I use irssi
[03:01] <k0d3g3ar> matts45acp,  xchat... its the bomb
[03:01] <blakkheim> irssi here too :3
[03:02] <furi> are there any aliased monospace fonts i can use?
[03:02] <furi> i mean, that come with the system
[03:02] <furi> monospace is antialiased, so...
[03:03] <MadMax_> you guys are all penises
[03:03] <aartist_> Hi, How can I run Ubuntu from a portable HD ?  I checked MD5, integrity is good. What else could be the problem?
[03:05] <UnholyTerror> aspci
[03:05] <starn> hahaha!! command line super user worked! woot
[03:05] <UnholyTerror> f4 boot options
[03:06] <Sean____> How come on the Ubuntu site 32bit is recommended? Is there some problems with 64bit?
[03:06] <matts45acp> where can i find someone command lines for irssi
[03:06] <Sean____> Just curious since I'm gonna be trying out Ubuntu.
[03:06] <helloNetbookUbun> anybody play wow on ubuntu?
[03:06] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, how old is your filesystem? Also are you using any sort of RAID? If so what kind
[03:06] <UnholyTerror> i run 64bit all day long
[03:06] <Reverend_Ruff> helloNetbookUbun: many people do
[03:06] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: no RAID, system was installed just a few days ago
[03:06] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: fresh, mind
[03:06] <Maahes_> okay, so it's not any disk fragmentation errors.....hrrrm
[03:07] <helloNetbookUbun> i get like 1 frame a second is it possible to tweak it so i get like 14fps
[03:07] <UnholyTerror> what have you installed
[03:07] <Eber> Guys... which machine should I get if I want to run a full Linux notebook? Which machine will give me the best experience I can get with it? Any hints? A Dell machine would be nice (I can get Dell in Brazil..)
[03:07] <blakkheim> Eber: anything that doesn't have broadcom wifi and ati graphics
[03:07] <furi> does anyone know of a good aliased monospaced font?
[03:07] <Reverend_Ruff> helloNetbookUbun: Do you have the appropriate video drivers installed? Is Wine configured correctly? Check those two first.
[03:07] <Sean____> Alright then, I'll use 64bit. Should be fine then.
[03:07] <ToStItOs> I cannot drag and drop my video files from my music folder to my flash drive. How do I fix this?
[03:07] <jiohdi> raj-k: how old is the hardware?
[03:08] <raj-k> jiohdi: about 8 months old
[03:08] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: my packages?
[03:08] <Eber> blakkheim: any other graphics card will wrok? intel? nvidia?
[03:08] <helloNetbookUbun> i'll check my video driver, but let me ask .. is it because i have an intel card?
[03:08] <judax> Eber: You can get many Dell systems with Ubuntu pre-installed
[03:08] <blakkheim> Eber: intel and nvidia are both well supported
[03:08] <Reverend_Ruff> Eber: Linux and Intel get along well. =)
[03:08] <UnholyTerror> Sean____, you can install 32bit libs if needed.
[03:08] <she_dyed> furi there is inconsolada
[03:08] <jiohdi> raj-k: does anything happen at all, when does it go black?
[03:08] <Eber> Cool, good to know!
[03:08] <UnholyTerror> gustavderdrache, yes
[03:08] <furi> she_dyed: thank you, i'll check that
[03:09] <Sean____> Alright. In what circumstance may I need 32bit libs if I am running 64bit?
[03:09] <Eber> I just upgraded my VM with 10.10 I wish I had a machine to enjoy it at full speed!
[03:09] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: developer-y stuff, perl modules, some libraries, google chrome
[03:09] <Eber> It looks gorgeous!
[03:09] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: off the top of my head, don't know how to get a full list of packages (is there a way to pull it out of apt-cache?)
[03:09] <raj-k> jiohdi: No. I am pressing all buttons; "Try Ubuntu without installing," "Instal Ubuntu onto hard drive", etc. but all just show black screen. No sounds
[03:10] <jiohdi> raj-k: so it does get to the menu screen?
[03:10] <UnholyTerror> I mean, was it booting fine (normal) then not after a software install?
[03:10] <Eber> judax: I'll try to find them over here... But I think they are not selling those anymore (in Brazil)...
[03:10] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: oh, no, it's always been sluggish
[03:10] <UnholyTerror> Sean____, there may be some apps you want to run that require 32bit...
[03:10] <raj-k> jiohdi: Yes. "Unetbootin Menu: then lists all options. But after I click one option, nothing is happening
[03:10] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: but only with this version of linux -- it's had Slackware and it used to run 9.04 for quite awhile
[03:10] <starn> how do i make command line wine run in a fixed window size? for sudo wine /media/FA507AA9507A6BEF/WorldofWarcraft/WoW.exe -windowed 1024x756 did not work.... better yet how about that set rez in full screen?
[03:10] <gustavderdrache> all those worked just fine
[03:11] <UnholyTerror> gustavderdrache, why not try to reinstall?
[03:11] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: hmm... because that would be a logical option i didn't think about? :P
[03:11] <Sean____> alright. Is it an easy procedure to get 32bit libs? (Sorry first time using Linux/Ubuntu so just wanna understand it all)
[03:11] <starn> Reason i ask is WoW keeps trying to display 2560x1024
[03:11] <judax> Eber: Good luck and have fun!
[03:11] <UnholyTerror> Sean____, in the repositories. Use Synaptics
[03:12] <Eber> judax: Tks!
[03:12] <Sean____> okay
[03:12] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, okay, acouple more angles. What's your bios and version? And also, do you have any strange peripherals hooked up. Anything you would not find in a stock pc these days?
[03:13] <UnholyTerror> I don't use them.
[03:13] <blinkie> I'm installing 10.10 server ed. 64bit on a machine. want to use it for serving files to other units on the same LAN and also stream media, for instance to ps3's. I would also like it to be a webserver (definitely very low traffic, mostly me playing around), have an irc "bouncer" (screen+irssi, I guess) and act as a torrentbox. I need to control it from outside the LAN, and be able to transfer
[03:13] <blinkie> files to and from it (again outside the LAN) without anybody in the middle being able to see what the traffic is.
[03:13] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: no strange peripherals as far as I know
[03:13] <blinkie> is this really really hard to do?
[03:13] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: BIOS is.. uh... tell me there's a way to find this out without having to reboot
[03:13] <she_dyed> gustavderdrache: not a usb boot is it?
[03:13] <gustavderdrache> she_dyed: nope, boots off a SATA drive
[03:13] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, if you know your motherboard type
[03:13] <raj-k> jiohdi: Yes. "Unetbootin Menu: then lists all options. But after I click one option, nothing is happening
[03:14] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: actually, one sec, i think i might be able to dig up the info
[03:14] <UnholyTerror> gustavderdrache, hold up...
[03:14] <Sean93> how do i update a tracker in transmission?
[03:14] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: eh?
[03:14] <Sean93> and is there a better torrent client?
[03:14] <Maahes_> even a usb boot shouldn't be that bad, I've got maybe a 40s boot for my USB on weaker hardware than what he's running
[03:14] <toshiba> 还有人在的不？
[03:15] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: it's a Foxconn, uses the X58 chipset
[03:15] <Maahes_> Sean93, depends what you mean by better. Some people like bittornado, some like using utorrent on ubuntu, if you hang out in the console, rtorrent is excellent
[03:16] <UnholyTerror> I wonder if System->Administration->Sytem Testing would show you anything
[03:16] <toshiba> why this is so quilty >
[03:16] <Sean93> utorrent in wine or is there a linux version?
[03:16] <Sean93> im not fond of wine
[03:16] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: I ran a disk test, and it's okay, but haven't run any of the other tests
[03:16] <toshiba> it is ?
[03:17] <toshiba> sudo apt-get update
[03:20] <kion> Anybody with an alienware M15x?
[03:20] <starn> how do i make command line wine run in a fixed window size? for sudo wine /media/FA507AA9507A6BEF/WorldofWarcraft/WoW.exe -windowed 1024x756 did not work.... better yet how about that set rez in full screen?
[03:21] <ToStItOs> How can I set up permissions for my Usb flash drive to accept media files from my music folder
[03:21] <UnholyTerror> gustavderdrache, system testing gives a nice thorough report of your system.
[03:21] <she_dyed> it should be x786 stern
[03:21] <matts45acp> -x
[03:21] <she_dyed> or x768 stern maybe it rejected
[03:21] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: system testing has decided to sit and wait instead of being useflu
[03:21] <gustavderdrache> *useful
[03:22] <UnholyTerror> can you pull up a terminal?
[03:22] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: always :)
[03:22] <UnholyTerror> what does 'top' tell you?
[03:22] <she_dyed> Use 1024x768 starn maybe it rejected
[03:22] <starn> ok i shall try she_dyed
[03:22] <UnholyTerror> or System Monitor
[03:22] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: that 99.9% of my CPU is idle :)
[03:23] <jiohdi> ToStItOs: easiest way is to open a terminal... sudo -s  pw: xxxx and then type the name of your file manager... you will be in super user mode... and you can move any file anywhere
[03:23] <macabre_> ola, is there any reason why apt-upgrade is holding back kernel 2.6.32-25 ?
[03:23] <starn> she_dyed only reason i am doing this is for it wont let me set premissions for it by right clicking :\
[03:23] <UnholyTerror> is the HD light on(alot)?
[03:23] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: nope
[03:24] <starn> odd i did normal sudo said i do not own .wine
[03:24] <UnholyTerror> hmmmm
[03:24] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: there we go, killed it and restarted it :)
[03:24] <UnholyTerror> because you don't
[03:24] <blakkheim> macabre_: sudo aptitude full-upgrade
[03:24] <starn> its dumb  i have to run wine is super mode..

[03:25] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: starting all the tests, including the hibernate one
[03:25] <Reverend_Ruff> furi: file extension is irrelevant in *nix environments.
[03:25] <furi> Reverend_Ruff: i see
[03:25] <starn> soo like this she_dyed? sudo wine /media/FA507AA9507A6BEF/WorldofWarcraft/WoW.exe -1024x786

[03:31] <she_dyed> rammyIRC: look at ghostscript/ghostview
[03:32] <rammyIRC> oay
[03:32] <rammyIRC> okay
[03:32] <YoMama> Hey does anyone else if they sorted out the problem with netbook 10.10 and the slowness reladted to mutter or intel video?
[03:32] <YoMama> related*
[03:32] <endhiran> an application to convert .mp3 sound file to .aac sound file? does anyone know.........:'(?
[03:33] <matts45acp> how do i have that name automatically use when i start irssi
[03:33] <puff> Sometimes - now is a case in point - when I maximize a window (in this case emacs), the bottom edge goes off the screen.  I can only see the top edge of the emacs buffer line, and I can't see the microbuffer line at all.
[03:33] <puff> How can I adjust this?
[03:33] <rammyIRC> installing ghostview has any prob
[03:33] <rammyIRC> any known issues
[03:33] <tim_> I am having trouble finding a network manager to replace the one on the default panel using AWN. I keep seeing that it is in the extras trunk. I have that installed but it is not showing up in my applets list. Am I missing something?
[03:33] <UnholyTerror> wouldn't that be in prefs?
[03:33] <KB1JWQ> YoMama: Check the bug tracker.
[03:34] <scampbell> Is there anyway to get evolution to use vlc or mplayer as it's default player for media files?
[03:34] <YoMama> where can I find that?
[03:34] <KB1JWQ> YoMama: In launchpad.
[03:34] <IdleOne> !bugs | YoMama
[03:34] <KB1JWQ> !launchpad
[03:35] <YoMama> ahh sweet thanks alot
[03:36] <Juacho> hola
[03:36] <Juacho> hi
[03:36] <Juacho> quie estan por aca
[03:37] <she_dyed> !es > por favor juacho
[03:38] <matts45acp> how do i have that name automatically use when i start irssi
[03:38] <Juacho> hablemos de ubuntu quieres
[03:38] <Gnea> !es | Juacho
[03:39] <furi> i saw a preview of irssi with split tabs. how can i do this?
[03:41] <Barridus> why is a file copy in terminal so much slower from a /mounted network windows share slower than the same file copy if i mount it via nautilus and copy that way with the gui?
[03:42] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, okay, lots of sleuthing, but no definite answers. One question: Did you buy this motherboard in 2008?
[03:42] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: nope, '09
[03:42] <Barridus> or even copy it via the terminal from the ~/.gfvs folder with command prompt.  that is also much faster than via the first method via /mount
[03:42] <Maahes_> okay, then its probably not one of the screwed up Foxconn boards that shipped in 2008
[03:43] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: i'd probably see boot problems with Windows if that were the case, wouldn't I?
[03:43] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, no it was linux specific
[03:43] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: ah
[03:43] <she_dyed> sabotage!
[03:43] <matts45acp> can somone tell me how to make my nick name the name irssi uses when i start it
[03:44] <Barridus> is GVFS that much faster than /mounting a  network resource?
[03:44] <Maahes_> Recommendations: Find your bios for your mother board, upgrade to the latest version. Then: Try a different kernel, such as low-latency or whatnot. Then: Try an older kernel.
[03:44] <Maahes_> after that, if none of those work: Try disabling Plymouth, then ureadahead
[03:44] <ToStItOs> jiohdi, ok hel me out so how can I get my usb drive to have the permission to drag and drop? What do I need to do?
[03:44] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: are alternate kernels easy to get to via apt, or do i get to go compile from source like was intended for all of mankind?
[03:45] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, there's several alt kernels in apt
[03:45] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: darn :)
[03:45] <JoeMaverickSett> matts45acp: although this is not an irssi support channel, it's at #irssi use that channel next time, you can do /set nick
[03:45] <Maahes_> matts45acp, the solution to your problem is sudo aptitude install weechat ;P
[03:46] <she_dyed> +1 Maahes_
[03:46] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: how do i go about disabling plymouth/ureadahead?
[03:46] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: i
[03:46] <gustavderdrache> aslfkj
[03:46] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: I'm making notes so I don't forget :)
[03:46] <jiohdi> ToStItOs: check your im from me
[03:51] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, ureadahead can be removed via apt. Plymouth can only be sort of commented out: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-mint-84/how-to-disable-plymouth-in-mint-ubuntu-827422/ you may also, try when you boot to press escape and see if booting hangs specifically on any one message
[03:51] <Maahes_> (escape gets around Plymouth and shows text)
[03:51] <Seq> Trying to update-grub, I get this. Any ideas? /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: Couldn't find PV pv1. Check your device.map.
[03:52] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: okay, cool
[03:52] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: I don't see a low-latency kernel specifically in apt, am I missing it or is it named something else?
[03:52] <Maahes_> it might have been renamed, lemme look
[03:52] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: okay, thanks
[03:53] <roknir> i recently upgraded to 10.10 and i'm seeing tons of /bin/sh /usr/bin/xdg-screensaver suspend processes building up on my system.  anyone know what the problem may be?
[03:55] <Nv1dia> Anyone not afk? I need help with a terminal command, and its a tad too advanced to google.
[03:55] <roknir> i'm not afk, but i may not be able to help either.  whatcha got?
[03:56] <Nv1dia> Well, i need to search through an entire directory of source code for any indication of Si4907.ko
[03:56] <Nv1dia> im trying to track down a driver.
[03:56] <roknir> grep -ri Si4907.ko /path/to/files/*
[03:56] <Nv1dia> problem is, the driver isn't created in the compile, which makes me think(or hope) its commented out.
[03:56] <roknir> ?
[03:57] <Sean93> im trying to install skdownloader with google chrome, i get the error Could not find java > 1.6 in your system
[03:57] <Sean93> Please install Java from "http://www.java.com"
[03:57] <Nv1dia> ill give it a shot = )
[03:57] <roknir> good luck Nv1dia; hope it works.

[03:57] <rww> !partner | Sean93
[03:58] <Sean93> how do i download it using terminal?

[04:01] <Quantum_Ion> that japanese script looks GOOD
[04:02] <rww> a's speaking in Chinese…
[04:02] <TeruFSX> monty_hall sudo killall pulseaudio
[04:02] <Random832> a: 这是一个聊天室 - 我们在这里说英语
[04:02] <TeruFSX> should do it
[04:02] <TeruFSX> !cn
[04:02] <monty_hall> thx
[04:02] <Random832> [google translated "this is a chatroom - we speak english here]
[04:02] <a> 为什么不说汉语
[04:02] <a> 有中国人在不？？？
[04:03] <TeruFSX> a: 我不是说汉语的人。我不认为这里大多数人都讲汉语。
[04:03] <Quantum_Ion> The price tag is your behind
[04:03] <Random832> a: 我不知道中國。我用了一個網站，自動翻譯
[04:03] <kyaw> hello
[04:03] <toal193> Once I used a GTK+ GUI tool to change applications volume preferences in pulseaudio, but I've forgotten it's name? Does anyone know?
[04:03] <a> 为什么这没有说汉语的呢？？？
[04:03] <Random832> a: http://translate.google.com 我用
[04:04] <kyaw> Do Ubuntu desktop and netbook versions support touch screen input?
[04:04] <Sean93> how do i delete a diretory from terminal?
[04:04] <kyaw> like tablet
[04:04] <rww> Sean93: rm -r directory/
[04:04] <TeruFSX> i know that they have at least rudimentary, hard-to-use touchscreen support
[04:04] <Random832> a: people in here do not speak chinese.
[04:04] <Random832> !cn | a
[04:04] <TeruFSX> beyong that I donot know
[04:04] <Maahes_> I just barely have enough space to install a new kernel and find out if that fixes my problem
[04:05] <she_dyed> Maahes_: living on the edge eh?
[04:05] <rww> this is why I don't separate /boot and / :(
[04:05] <kyaw> If I install netbook version on a tablet pc, I can only use mouse and keyboard for input?
[04:06] <Maahes_> she_dyed, heh, yeah :) I've already almost hosed this install once by updating too much at once
[04:06] <TeruFSX> kyaw you can probably use the touchscreen to some extent on some tablets
[04:06] <TeruFSX> i don't really know much about touchscreen support, besides that it exists
[04:06] <jacksparrow> how do i dl compiz fusion in the terminal all comands iv found dont work iam runing back track 4
[04:06] <rww> !backtrack | jacksparrow
[04:07] <Maahes_> I'm sincerely considering removing more things. If I could be certain my usb would still work I'd install awesomeWM and a lightweight login manager and remove gnome and gdm
[04:07] <kyaw> I saw a video on engadget. Title is "Ubuntu 10.10's multitouch Unity UI demoed on Dell, makes multitasking look easy".  The video is convincing to install Ubuntu
[04:07] <TeruFSX> Maahes_ why wouldn't it
[04:07] <a> 这里都有哪里的人？？？
[04:08] <h00k> a: /join #ubuntu-cn
[04:08] <kyaw> that video is which version of Ubuntu?
[04:08] <she_dyed> Maahes_: archlive has lxde that you can switch to awesome, fyi
[04:08] <Maahes_> TeruFSX, I tried creating a new user myname and giving it a password, not only would gdm not let me log in, it hung the system, crashed, and then I had to repair casper-rw because of a lot of dead inodes
[04:09] <Maahes_> she_dyed, arch also has absolutely no dependency management.
[04:09] <TeruFSX> a: 你是唯一的华人在这里发言。我们不能提供一种语言，我们不理解支持。请检查其中一个讲中文的聊天室。
[04:09] <rww> TeruFSX: they're gone
[04:09] <TeruFSX> yes, he is
[04:09] <TeruFSX> he apparently just gave up
[04:10] <Maahes_> So yeah whilst I want to replace gdm, I'm reluctant to do it yet.
[04:10] <she_dyed> gdm, the login manager?
[04:10] <TeruFSX> i think that installing another display manager would allow you to reconfigure them
[04:11] <TeruFSX> at least that happened when I tried to install kdm
[04:11] <she_dyed> yeah they followsome basic rules
[04:12] <kyaw> what version of Ubuntu is this? http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/25/ubuntu-10-10s-multitouch-unity-ui-demoed-on-dell-makes-multita/
[04:12] <TeruFSX> 10.10 Netbook Edition
[04:12] <denny> the networking seems to have completely stopped working on my Compaq netbook with my most recent set of updates.  Wireless and LAN, neither of them are seeing my network.  Anyone know what could be going on there?
[04:13] <kyaw> So netbook edition supports touch screen input?
[04:13] <TeruFSX> kyaw yes
[04:13] <hasenj> can Unity run on a normal laptop? my processor is Core-i7 and video card is ati radeon with the open source driver, but Unity doesn't run on it, what's up with that?
[04:13] <TeruFSX> yes
[04:13] <kyaw> does desktop version support also?
[04:13] <TeruFSX> hasenj that driver might not have 3D rendering support
[04:14] <k0d3g3ar> ne1 here know if all models of eeepc machines have Nvidia video in them?
[04:14] <hasenj> TeruFSX, how can I tell? the glxgears runs fine on it
[04:14] <TeruFSX> kyaw desktop supports touch input, but i don't know if touchscreen support will be enabled by default and if it isn't i don't know how to enable it
[04:14] <a> 嗯？？
[04:14] <jacksparrow> how do i dl compiz fusion in the terminal
[04:14] <k0d3g3ar> and where do I download the nvidia drivers for Ubuntu 10.10 with opengl support?
[04:14] <kyaw> ok thank you
[04:15] <jacksparrow> all the comads i have tryed dont work
[04:15] <kyaw> netbook version is defaultly enable touch input?
[04:15] <TeruFSX> k0d3g3ar some eeepcs have Intel video
[04:15] <TeruFSX> go to System> Administration> Additional Drivers and check for a driver for your video card
[04:16] <TeruFSX> kyaw to my knowledge, yes
[04:16] <TeruFSX> jacksparrow try opening Synaptic and looking for compiz
[04:16] <TeruFSX> also again we cannot help you out past that
[04:17] <TeruFSX> you aren't using Ubuntu
[04:17] <roknir> does anyone have any good links about how to resolve a driver "activated but not in use" message in jackal for the nvidia drivers?  i have nvidia-current installed and ran nvidia-xconfig, but no matter what i do i can't get that additional drivers window to say the driver's actually in use.
[04:17] <furi> the theme isn't changing in irssi, but it says it was changed. how come?
[04:18] <k0d3g3ar> TeruFSX, do you know how to tell what video card is installed in a unit?
[04:18] <kyaw> Can I install netbook version on desktop computer?
[04:18] <psusi> yea
[04:18] <TeruFSX> k0d3g3ar it should offer the driver if you have a supported nVIDIA chipset
[04:19] <k0d3g3ar> TeruFSX, ok, thanks.  I'll check it out
[04:19] <adamkex> hey, what's up with this "Unity" interface instead of GNOME Shell for 11.04?
[04:19] <roknir> k0d3g3ar: lspci | grep VGA
[04:19] <TeruFSX> ubuntu already uses Unity
[04:19] <TeruFSX> yeah roknir's tip is better
[04:19] <adamkex> in 10.10?
[04:19] <JohnFlux> Hi all
[04:19] <Sean93> how do i use skdownloader with google chrome?
[04:20] <JohnFlux> Ubuntu 10.10 is really slow for me
[04:20] <JohnFlux> Googling I think it's a bug between ati drivers and xorg
[04:20] <yagoo> kyaw, u probably can but I bet you shouldnt.
[04:20] <TeruFSX> adamkex yes also 11.04 will already be in package freeze when GNOME 3.0 comes out
[04:20] <TeruFSX> with GNOME shell
[04:20] <psusi> Unity is the shell for netbook edition
[04:21] <root_> sssadad
[04:21] <bluefoxicy> ok
[04:21] <bluefoxicy> why the hell
[04:21] <bluefoxicy> does flash not work in chromium
[04:21] <adamkex> psusi: but isn't that for single task computing?
[04:21] <root_> i'm using backtrack 4
[04:21] <psusi> bluefoxicy, works for me... at least as well as adobe's horrible products usually do
[04:22] <root_> how can teach me crack wap
[04:22] <psusi> adamkex, no
[04:22] <bluefoxicy> psusi:  everything says I don't have flash, but it works in firefox
[04:22] <TeruFSX> !backtrack
[04:23] <TeruFSX> hey, root_ read that. also, I can't teach you how to crack WEP.
[04:23] <jacksparrow> y cant i post to backtrack channel??
[04:23] <furi> the theme isn't changing in irssi, but it says it was changed. how come?
[04:23] <bsmith093> anyone kniow of a quick way to demux the audio from an avi ( and i mean just copy the audio track asis to an mp3)
[04:23] <TeruFSX> jacksparrow I don't know.
[04:24] <root_> hey TeruFSX, I can teach you how to crack wep
[04:24] <root_> ;))
[04:24] <adamkex> psusi: ok.. do you think most people would like it? i just looked at a 1600x900 screenshot if it and it looked undesirable imo..
[04:24] <TeruFSX> root_: I'm not interested.
[04:24] <rww> jacksparrow: they have unidentified users quieted for some reason
[04:24] <rww> ubottu: register | jacksparrow
[04:24] <psusi> adamkex, that kind of defeats the purpose.... the whole point is that it is for SMALL screens
[04:24] <Bossmanbeta> bsmith093, mplayer ./input.avi -dumpaudio -dumpfile output.mp3
[04:25] <bsmith093> Bossmanbeta:
[04:25] <dw-> yoink
[04:25] <jacksparrow> ic ty
[04:25] <Sean93> how do i use skdownloader with google chrome?
[04:25] <adamkex> psusi: ok, so what will the regular non-netbook users use? everything seems very unclear to me
[04:26] <TeruFSX> adamkex non-Netbook users will use the standard GNOME 2.3 desktop
[04:26] <psusi> adamkex, whenever gnome3 finally ships, it will be gnome-shell
[04:26] <jacksparrow> join #freenode
[04:26] <Random832> gnome-shell X_X
[04:26] <TeruFSX> again GNOME 3.0 and GNOME Shell will not be in 11.04
[04:26] <jacksparrow> lol woops my bad
[04:26] <virtual> hi there
[04:27] <TeruFSX> HellO!
[04:27] <tortoise> Where can you see what version Kernel you are using?
[04:27] <roknir> tortoise: uname -a
[04:27] <virtual> hi, anyone know how do i login remote on my xubuntu??
[04:27] <tortoise> roknir: Thanks
[04:27] <adamkex> TeruFSX psusi: ok, i just read on slashdot.org/linux that ubuntu is moving away from GNOME Shell
[04:28] <psusi> adamkex, yea.. it's full of it
[04:28] <roknir> tortoise: or more concisely, uname -r
[04:28] <adamkex> psusi: this all seems so confusing, thank god i prefer xfce
[04:28] <BkFlameBroiled> i like gnome cuz it seems faster, but kde looks nicer
[04:28] <furi> how do i change the background color of a fallback terminal?
[04:28] <TeruFSX> adamkex: that summary is bad
[04:28] <kd6oat> hello
[04:29] <BkFlameBroiled> hellp
[04:29] <TeruFSX> also it's a bit inflammatory; Unity is just a shell for GNOME
[04:29] <adamkex> TeruFSX: this is why i am asking questions here, because it didn't seem to be 100% accurate
[04:29] <psusi> I need to go check out unity on my netbook... should be pretty nice... last time I tried gnome-shell on my desktop it was pretty sweet too... just buggy
[04:30] <TeruFSX> I can understand why they wouldn't use GNOME Shell. Mainly, it wasn't yet finished.
[04:30] <TeruFSX> *won't yet be finished then.
