[11:28] <sebsebseb> lost_:  trying to use RPM's in Ubuntu should be a last resort really, thats what I am saying
[11:28] <Jordan_U> Mosaert33: What hardware drivers would normally do to "Enable the driver" would be to download the windows driver from broadcom's website (because they're the only ones allowed to distribute it) then extract just the firmware from it. Since you added the firmware manually, Hardware Drivers thinks that the driver has never been "enabled" (because it hasn't done anything to get the firmware).
[11:29] <roffe> I'm Swedish, but I prefer using Ubuntu in English. There's one tiny problem to it though, whenever I check the calender it starts every week on a sunday. Is it possible to fix this to mondays instead?
[11:29] <stuie> wisst ihr wie man mithilfe der ubuntu 10.10 iso ubuntu 10.04 updaten kann ?
[11:29] <Mosaert33> Jordan_U,  so Hardw Drivers should say that the b43 one is In Use right? (I don't mind that it doesn't say that though)
[11:29] <Jordan_U> Mosaert33: Why the option wasn't previously there in Hardware Drivers for you I don't know. But I'm glad it's working now :)
[11:29] <erUSUL> !de
[11:29] <Jordan_U> Mosaert33: Yes, it should.
[11:29] <Mosaert33> ok
[11:29] <jrib> roffe: « man locale » is where I would start my search
[11:30] <Sven1234> llutz it did not work
[11:30] <Mosaert33> Jordan_U,  tyvm again, and maybe cya if this wifi sucks too :P
[11:30] <Jordan_U> Mosaert33: You're welcome :)
[11:30] <erUSUL> roffe: set only LC_TIME to swedish locale?
[11:30] <Mosaert33> :)
[11:30] <cemc> how can I disable indexing in 10.10 ? I don't want it to start even, completely disable it
[11:30] <roffe> Thanks guys, I'll look into both!
[11:31] <Sven1234> how do i make an installed version of ubuntu 10.10 run with the noapic version selected
[11:31] <travkin> use google before asking dumb questions
[11:31] <travkin> cemc, what do you mean exactly with indexing?
[11:31] <travkin> Sven1234, sudo nano /etc/default/grub
[11:31] <travkin> GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash noapic"
[11:32] <Sven1234> i am not running ubuntu now but windows
[11:32] <travkin> then do sudo update-grub
[11:32] <travkin> do you have ability to boot LiveCD?
[11:32] <Sven1234> travkin right now i am in windows 7 i can not start up ubuntu because it only works with noapic so how do i make it start up with noapic
[11:32] <travkin> what's filesystem of installed Ubuntu partition?
[11:32] <travkin> ext4?
[11:33] <cemc> travkin: there's that app that indexes your files for quick searching or whatever. there's an icon that briefly appears when it's doing that, I think at startup
[11:33] <Sven1234> travkin yes i can use live cd with noapic option and install with noapic option now after installation i want it to start with noapic option how do i do that
[11:33] <travkin> Sven1234, follow this guide: http://www.socialblogr.com/2010/09/how-to-read-file-in-ext4-file-system-from-windows-7.html
[11:33] <travkin> you'll be able to see content of your parition and edit files
[11:33] <roffe> Anyway, I think it should be a standard option to switch between the timesystems in the clock-app
[11:33] <travkin> then find your /boot/grub/grub.cfg and add to append noapic option
[11:33] <lost_> i have setup alien now but it still asks for libQtGui.so.4
[11:34] <erUSUL> Sven1234: edit /etc/default/grub add noapic to where splash and quiet is ( betwen the  quotes) run « sudo update-grub »
[11:34] <travkin> erUSUL, damn, he can't run update-grub because he don't have ability to boot into Ubuntu
[11:34] <travkin> read carefully
[11:34] <travkin> cemc, Preferences -> Startup Applications - there have to be what are you looking for, like Indexing Service
[11:34] <travkin> but it was removed from 9.10, i thought
[11:34] <travkin> starting from*
[11:34] <FloodBot1> travkin: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:35] <Sven1234> erUSUL wo wo wo i know little about computers i am now running win7 how do i make the installed ubuntu start with noapic option
[11:35] <travkin> Sven1234, what's wrong with you? I told you how to do it
[11:35] <erUSUL> Sven1234: then edit the option directly in the grub menu. when booting prss shift so the grub mwenu appears. then hit enter to edit. go to kernel line and add noapic to the end. do crtl + x to boot the modified grub entry
[11:36] <llutz_> erUSUL: i already told him to do, "didn't work" [sic]
[11:36] <erUSUL> Sven1234: to edit is press "e" not enter
[11:36] <littlebobby> I'm running 10.10 64-bit and I've got sound delays in flash. All the help stuff regarding this problem on the web seems outdated for maverick. any ideas?
[11:36]  * erUSUL shuts up now ;)
[11:37] <Sven1234> erUsul when grb opens i pressed E then i pressed down to the end of the last line, then i pressed enter to make a new empty line then i typed in noapic then i pressed ctrlx but that did not work ubuntu did not start
[11:37] <travkin> littlebobby, sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio helped me on another laptop. anyway, there's a discussion on ubuntuforums.org, and some users offer another solution
[11:37] <Sven1234>  erUSUL when grub opens i pressed E then i pressed down to the end of the last line, then i pressed enter to make a new empty line then i typed in noapic then i pressed ctrlx but that did not work ubuntu did not start
[11:37] <llutz_> Sven1234: i told you where to add "noapic". that was not at the end in a new line!
[11:37] <littlebobby> travkin, yeah, I thought about getting rid of pulseaudio, thanks for the tip
[11:37] <erUSUL> Sven1234: no you do not have to make a new empty line you have to add noapic to the end to the already existing kernel line ( the one that starts with kernel )
[11:37] <littlebobby> travkin, wasn't sure it was still a good idea
[11:38] <Sven1234> llutz hello  please explain again and should i ahve the "" marks as well or just the letters noapic
[11:38] <Talon_> how do I edit a theme in more detail? I really like ubuntu 10.04's default theme, but i made the buttons be on the right rather than the left, and added the menu in there... but the menu is a stupid dot, the other themes make that stupid dot be the applications icon.
[11:38] <travkin> littlebobby, on another distro I don't use pulseaudio at all and don't see any need in it
[11:38] <llutz_> Sven1234: no just add the bare word noapic to the kernel line
[11:39] <littlebobby> travkin, you don't have the link to that discussion, have you?
[11:39] <Talon_> i guess i need to edit the Ambiance window border or something
[11:39] <travkin> littlebobby, let me see the history
[11:39] <Sven1234> so a line that starts with the word kernel i am to add the letters noapic at the end of that line and if so am i to press spacebar to create gap between the last letter of that line and the letters noapic?
[11:39] <llutz_> Sven1234: yes
[11:39] <Sven1234> ok will try again then
[11:39] <Sven1234> cheers
[11:40] <travkin> littlebobby, no. just make Search on forums
[11:40] <littlebobby> travkin, I'll do, thanks :-)

[12:12] <Sven12345> llutz_ it did work for ubuntu now it starts without any problems, thanks for that, BUT what does noapic mean what am i saying no to here and do i need the "apic" for something
[12:12] <Lenny|Work> oops wrong channel sorry guys
[12:12] <gDD_> llutz_: yes, i use sudo
[12:12] <Thylith> is that correct?
[12:13] <llutz_> gDD_: time to restore the backup
[12:13] <gDD_> a quick scan via testdisk don't do anything, i think maybe i need a deep scan
[12:13] <gDD_> anyway i don't think testdisk is born for handle this thing
[12:14] <herbmonk> erUSUL: already did, but I'll ask in their about blender form now on, just thought I might try hear too
[12:14] <llutz_> Sven12345: it disables the use of the apic, but please use google for more information. i don#t know very much about that
[12:14] <herbmonk> sorry if my post was off topic
[12:14] <herbmonk> my basd
[12:14] <herbmonk> bad
[12:14] <greenmang0> llutz_: is it at all possible to recover data after > /dev/sda4 ?
[12:14] <gDD_> llutz_: no backup :(
[12:14] <gDD_> i forgot to say it's a ext4 partition
[12:14] <llutz_> greenmang0: depends how much data was written to the partition. i guess its hard to recover
[12:15] <gDD_> primary ext4 400GB partition
[12:15] <llutz_> gDD_: no backup so no important data lost :)
[12:15] <greenmang0> llutz_: ok

[12:16] <ne7work> hi all where is AllowOverride in apache please someone tell me
[12:16] <gDD_> llutz_: yes, not really important
[12:16] <llutz_> Sven12345: it disables the use of the apic, but please use google for more information. i don#t know very much about that
[12:16] <llutz_> gDD_: so don't waste your time trying to recover

[12:25] <sebsebseb> Sven12345: lspci in terminal
[12:25] <Sven12345> sebsebseb ok
[12:26] <pea[0]> how do you login to root to the gui?
[12:26] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: why?
[12:26] <pea[0]> i want to do basic things like move files
[12:26] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: which files?
[12:27] <Skaperen> pea[0]: do it at the command line
[12:27] <sulumar> sudo nautilus
[12:27] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: files that are wehre?
[12:27] <sebsebseb> sulumar: thats gksudo
[12:27] <pea[0]> i'm getting bored of having to google everything i want to do
[12:27] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: gksudo nautilus ,but be careful with that
[12:27] <pea[0]> when i can just drag and drop
[12:27] <Sven12345> when i installed ubuntu on my machine i allready had win 7 on it, and in instalation i gave it 100gb of disk now why can i see the windows part of the disk as well???? and not just the ubuntu part and can i move stuff across the 2 different parts?
[12:27] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: you don't want to delete stuff you shoudn't or move stuff in the wrong place for exmaple
[12:27] <pea[0]> don't i
[12:27] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: also permissions can be annoying yes, but they are there from a reason, to keep your system safe, and that does mean from you from the user as well
[12:27] <pea[0]> i thought this was linux, not windows
[12:28] <nibbler_> what package in 10.4 do i have to install to get http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/maverick/en/man1/winexe.1.html ?
[12:28] <pea[0]> this system isn't even connected to the internet
[12:28] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: if you do certain stupid things,  you might get some issue
[12:28] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: right, but even so
[12:28] <Skaperen> pea[0]: if you are bored of googling for everything you want to do, then hang out here and do the googling of what other people want to do
[12:28] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: if you move files around into the wrong places for example, depending on what they are, you might be able to mess your system up a little bit
[12:28] <pea[0]> sebsebseb, yes, well as i said, this is linux, not windows
[12:28] <pea[0]> i should be able to do what i want, right or wrong
[12:29] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: also you don't really need to do anything,  except with /home  and maybe extenrlah ard disks
[12:29] <sebsebseb> roved2101: ^
[12:29] <pea[0]>  /opt
[12:29] <Sven12345> sebsebseb ok but why can i see the other partion the one i gave to windows inside my ubuntu???
[12:29] <jrib> pea[0]: right, windows is the silly place where you run everything as root, linux is not that silly place
[12:29] <Skaperen> pea[0]: sudo /bin/bash ... now you have a shell running with root power ... "passwd root" to set a root password if you don't have it done already
[12:29] <pea[0]> i want to run the gui as root
[12:29] <sebsebseb> !noroot | Skaperen pea[0]
[12:30] <sebsebseb> !root | pea[0]
[12:30] <Skaperen> sebsebseb: I know
[12:30] <llutz_> Skaperen: if you need a root-shell, use correct "sudo -i"
[12:30] <pea[0]> sebsebseb, please don't spam me
[12:30] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: you should learn a bit about permissions, and probably about the file system a bit and how it works
[12:30] <sebsebseb> !permissions | pea[0]
[12:31] <pea[0]> sorry but i'm gonna have to ignore the bot
[12:31] <odb|fidel> lol
[12:31] <jrib> pea[0]: if you don't want answers, then don't ask questions...
[12:31] <pea[0]> my client is going crazy with highlight beeps
[12:31] <Skaperen> pea[0]: why?
[12:31] <odb|fidel> ut tries to help you
[12:31] <pea[0]> *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep*
[12:31] <odb|fidel> if you ignore the bot - dont expect help
[12:31] <odb|fidel> pea[0]: configure your irc client
[12:32] <odb|fidel> there is no need to make sounds if a users-nick is used
[12:32] <sebsebseb> indeed @ odb|fidel
[12:32] <pea[0]> i don't want a lesson in permissions anyway. i want to know how to get access to my own computer
[12:32] <llutz_> !manual > pea[0] read this
[12:32] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: things can mess up with Ubuntu as well, things can mess up with any operating system when stupid stuff is done,  no operating system is 100% perfect
[12:32] <sebsebseb> llutz_: except he may have the bot on ignore now,  so you may want to give the link instead :D
[12:32] <jrib> pea[0]: they are one and the same
[12:33] <Skaperen> llutz_: why do you think that is "correct"?
[12:33] <llutz_> Skaperen: because it sets a correct environment and has no strange sideeffects, other ways may have
[12:33] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: that you can't do certain stuff just like that, with certain files and folders, is becsue of security, and that does mean, from you the user
[12:34] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: that you can't just do,  you can do stuff with those files though, if you know how, but there are ways to do stuff with those files, and ways not to as well
[12:34] <Skaperen> llutz_: I've found it causes more problems than it avoids (been doing it many ways for a couple decades)
[12:34] <pea[0]> well thank you linux for protecting me from myself, but i don't want it
[12:34] <a2warik> sebsebseb: & every body, sorry to disturb but i have a problem know you   solve that easily In spreadsheet Whenever i copy a long sentence & paste it in one cell instead of having every thing in one cell itself the sentence is pasted in number of rows. I want everything to remain in one cell. Will someone help?
[12:35] <llutz_> Skaperen: use "sudo bash" and make "echo $HOME" then, you'll see one point
[12:35] <Skaperen> llutz_: if I want a full login to root I just do that
[12:35] <sebsebseb> pea[0]:  you the user,  are actsually the biggest risk to an operating system going wrong,  not malicious computer hackers/blackats (media call them hackers, that is wrong)
[12:35] <odb|fidel> pea[0]: seems like you dont want to learn - so why are you asking then?
[12:35] <odb|fidel> just wondering
[12:35] <Skaperen> llutz_: then I just login as root ... the least problems
[12:35] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: thats blackhats I did a typo
[12:35] <sebsebseb> and crackers
[12:35] <pea[0]> sebsebseb, i promise not to steal my own money when i hack into my own computer and steal my own credit card details
[12:35] <llutz_> Skaperen: please just don't suggest that to others here.
[12:36] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: no its not so much about that
[12:36] <pea[0]> uh huh
[12:36] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: is about you moving files that you shoudn't for example, or accidently deleting them,  that you need for your Ubuntu install to work properly
[12:36] <pea[0]> lampp installed everything to /opt
[12:37] <sebsebseb> pea[0]: however doing stuff with LAMP files,  will probably be ok yeah
[12:37] <llutz_> pea[0]: because you didn't use the packages
[12:37] <Skaperen> llutz_: if it solves their problem, then I should suggest it ... I am a man of truthful answers
[12:37] <a2warik> pea[0], sebsebseb & all others but i have problems too will some one solve that please
[12:38] <odb|fidel> a2warik: please repeat your problem
[12:38] <llutz_> Skaperen: people who have to ask how to get a root shell, shouldn't use it that way. they don't know what they're doing
[12:38] <sebsebseb> a2warik: I hardly do stuff with spreadsheets, so I am not really the person to be asking :)
[12:38] <Leo145> hi.i have upgraded  10.04 to 10.10 but boot splash did'nt change.what should i do?
[12:38] <pea[0]> i know how to login as root. i'm asking how to login to root in the gui so i can drag and drop
[12:39] <sebsebseb> a2warik: in fact I have mainly been doing stuff with spreadsheets when forced to,  by courses, and then it was Excel
[12:39] <Smail> Hello!
[12:39] <nibbler_> hmm, looks like winexe has silently been dropped from ubuntu? that would be very strange.....
[12:39] <a2warik> odb|fidel: i have stated my problem earlier will you read it there
[12:39] <spidla> Hi everyone, I have got a problem with my intel GPU. This problem has already been described by BUG #634683. However on the launchpad is said, that BUG is resolved and fix is released. I have latest version of affected packages and problem is still unresolved.
[12:39] <odb|fidel> a2warik: i got it already - talking about openoffice i guess right?
[12:40] <jamw> After upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10, when I try and tail -f a file it says "Cannot watch x,: No space left on device". What do?
[12:40] <a2warik> odb|fidel: yes
[12:40] <Skaperen> llutz_: actually, that is exactly why I answered it that way ... to make them think of the concepts ... they probably already know sudo runs a COMMAND as root ... just use bash as the command and voila ... they can realize "oh, just combine things" (the unix way)
[12:40] <odb|fidel> a2warik: best place to get OO help is the mailinglist
[12:40] <spidla> Is there anything I can do ? Is the fix already included in updates ?
[12:40] <odb|fidel> a2warik: there are usually really helpful & nice
[12:41] <Skaperen> llutz_: but I guess this channel is more about "take care of people's computers for them" and less about "teach them basic concepts so they work on their own"
[12:41] <llutz_> Skaperen: you overestimate most of the askers :(
[12:41] <llutz_> Skaperen: unfortunately true
[12:41] <Leo145> hi.i have upgraded  10.04 to 10.10 but boot splash did'nt change.what should i do?
[12:42] <a2warik> odb|fidel: mailing list will be slow than chat i also tried #openoffice but no one seems to respond
[12:42] <Thylith> i wish i had those problems.. :P
[12:42] <Skaperen> llutz_: I don't give this answer to any or all ... just to the onese I sense can use it ... *sigh*
[12:42] <sebsebseb> Leo145:  it did not change?
[12:42] <adeadrat> Hello, is there anyway I can install windows so I can dual boot without wipeing my ubuntu installation ?
[12:42] <sebsebseb> Leo145: as far as I know 10.10 uses exactly the same Plymouth theme as 10.04
[12:42] <Thylith> adeadrat, use google?
[12:43] <Leo145> no.i think 10.10 uses another theme
[12:43] <TiK> adead: sorry I am not ure abut the windows installer and if it uses a partition or the whole hdrive
[12:43] <Skaperen> llutz_: of course the really correct answer for learners is to get an Ubuntu Administrator book or read web/wiki pages for that topic
[12:43] <llutz_> adeadrat: you can, just free some space on your harddisk, primary partitions are preferred by win
[12:44] <sebsebseb> adeadrat: if you put WIndows on after Ubuntu, it will over write the Master Boot Record so only Windows will boot, and then its a pain to re install Grub 2 onto the MBR
[12:44] <Thylith> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[12:44] <sebsebseb> adeadrat: depending on what Windows app you want to run and how much RAM and such, a virtual machine inside Ubuntu may be good enough
[12:44] <Leo145> sebsebseb: no.i think 10.10 uses another theme
[12:44] <sebsebseb> Leo145: no  I think it hasn't changed
[12:44] <adeadrat> hm okey thanks for the answers I'll try a VM or something instead
[12:44] <llutz_> Skaperen: i agree. most things here could/should be answered with .tfm but users take that as an offense :(
[12:44] <sebsebseb> Leo145: anyway you can look in the repo for Plymouth themes, and install what you want
[12:44] <xxfog> Hi guys, I got a question. I installed ubuntu server edition some days ago and configured a softwareraid 1 on 2x 1TB hdd drives
[12:44] <sebsebseb> Leo145: and uninstall what you don't want and such
[12:45] <Skaperen> llutz_: yeah, that problem is too true :(
[12:45] <llutz_> Skaperen: anyway, enough offtopic
[12:45] <sebsebseb> xxfog: #ubuntu-server
[12:45] <Smail> Tell me what's the problem: no host is pinged, and tracert passes?
[12:45] <Skaperen> llutz_: ok
[12:46] <Leo145> sebsebseb: look at screenshots on the web.they have different theme
[12:46] <Smail> Tell me what's the problem: no host is pinged, and tracert passes?
[12:46] <sebsebseb> Leo145: well install it yourself then
[12:46] <sebsebseb> Leo145: from the repo
[12:46] <graphiclunarkid> I have an odd problem with the new Ubuntu One sign-up wizard on Maverick Netbook edition: on an English (United Kingdom) keyboard layout with English (United Kingdom) as the system language, if I type '@' in the email address text-box it prints as Ω. Anyone else experienced this?
[12:46] <Damascene> Hi, why my interfaces file has only two lines auto lo & iface lo inet loopback. is there any other file that has the settings?
[12:46] <xxfog> I had to set the partitions on both HDDs when installing software raid 1 - now one of the HDD crashes and I want to install a new HDD (also a hdd from another manufacturer) as second drive again, but how do have to install it? Will the sync-prozess start itself or will i have to start it manually? do I have to set the partions before the installation of the hdd by hand?
[12:47] <llutz_> Damascene: not if you use networkmanager
[12:47] <Damascene> llutz_ thanks
[12:48] <sebsebseb> graphiclunarkid: #ubuntuone
[12:48] <graphiclunarkid> sebsebseb: Thanks. On my way.
[12:48] <sebsebseb> graphiclunarkid: ok your welcome
[12:49] <sekon> anyone know what the command /bin/universe is supposed to do ??
[12:52] <Pr3nt1c3> I just noticed there's no tor avail for x61-10.10
[12:52] <Pr3nt1c3> I've tried all avail options, ideas?
[12:52] <Pr3nt1c3> !tor
[12:53] <llutz_> Pr3nt1c3: torproject.org has a repo
[12:53] <Pr3nt1c3> I can't access it
[12:53] <Pr3nt1c3> well, everything bar compiling from source
[12:53] <Brabusik> Can you tell me russian channel of ubuntu?
[12:53] <llutz_> !ru
[12:54] <KayAteChef> is www.medibuntu.org down?
[12:54] <KayAteChef> I am trying to get a video to play with codecs D;
[12:54] <Pr3nt1c3> "failed to fetch ... torproject... IP: <IP_ADDRESS>"
[12:54] <Pr3nt1c3> !torproject
[12:55] <sekon> anyone know what the command /bin/universe is supposed to do ??
[12:55] <Pr3nt1c3> I've also tried all the repo's listed on torproject.org
[12:55] <Stellarium-> KayAteChef: no connection for me to medibuntu.org
[12:55] <LjL> Pr3nt1c3: show me your /etc/apt/sources.list please
[12:55] <LjL> KayAteChef: seems down
[12:56] <lirvan> does anyone know of anything like keybreeze for ubuntu
[12:56] <Stellarium-> a keybreeze equivalent? what is keybreeze
[12:56] <llutz_> Pr3nt1c3: you are from china?
[12:57] <ojii> hello world
[12:57] <LjL> lirvan: i'm not sure what Keybreeze is exactly, but judging from Google - perhaps GNOME-Do?
[12:57] <Karen_m> my cat walked on my keyboard and now the whole screen/color scheme is dark... it's almost as if it's a 'negative' with a photo...
[12:58] <ojii> can I download system updates without applying them yet? I want to use the fast internet connection at work to download them but actually apply them in my free time at home
[12:58] <LjL> Karen_m: i think that must be the "negative" plug-in in Compiz, but i don't know what the keyboard shortcut to (de)activate it is
[12:58] <lirvan> thanks ljl. i already use gnome do. but with keybreeze you can summon it with just one key .
[12:58] <Karen_m> ok it gives me something to go look for in keyboard shortcuts
[12:58] <LjL> ojii: sudo apt-get --download-only dist-upgrade
[12:58] <soreau> Karen_m: Super+M or +N
[12:58] <ojii> LjL, and to apply?
[12:59] <Karen_m> what is super?
[12:59] <LjL> lirvan: hm, can't the shortcut be changed?
[12:59] <LjL> ojii: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:59] <Pr3nt1c3> LjL line 20
[12:59] <soreau> Karen_m: The windoze logo key
[12:59] <Karen_m> wow that is neat, thank you!
[12:59] <ojii> LjL, is that for any updates? dist-upgrade sounds weird
[12:59] <Pr3nt1c3> llutz_ no I am not, australia
[12:59] <KayAteChef> haha negative... neato
[13:00] <Pr3nt1c3> didn't want to spam the channel
[13:00] <Stellarium-> Karen_m: that's a new one, i hate cats
[13:00] <LjL> ojii: it's because it's a smarter form of upgrade than just "upgrade", which was made to upgrade to a newer release, but it works just fine for normal updates too. i think its name has been changed to "full-upgrade" now to make it sound less weird
[13:00] <basso> Hello!
[13:00] <LjL> !pastebin | Pr3nt1c3, use this
[13:00] <Karen_m> super+m is awesome now that I know the toggle
[13:01] <ojii> LjL, thanks for the clarification
[13:01] <soreau> Karen_m: Super + Scroll for ezoom IIRC
[13:01] <basso> i was trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 x64 on encryptet LVM on my Macbook PRO, but for some reason it could not find anything to boot :(
[13:02] <Chell> Can anyone tell me why Ubuntu is much more difficult to get higher resolutions in Virtualbox than Debian? In Debian you don't even have to install guest-additions, while in Ubuntu adding guest additions doesn't even solve it.
[13:03] <israfil> hello
[13:03] <mr-ali> hi
[13:03] <Guest13684> Yo
[13:03] <mr-ali> wazzap
[13:03] <abon10> 11
[13:04] <abon10> 66
[13:04] <israfil> i have got a question concerning nvidia with hardy heron
[13:04] <mr-ali> i have been installed ubuntu 10.10 on my pc and i install another language on it but when i write the langauge is changing with out i'm pressing shift _alt
[13:05] <israfil> i have the nvidia 310 M (GT 218). i have written a modeline and so on in order to make it work
[13:06] <Sven12345> how do i update my drivers for Geforce GT220 graphic card for Ubuntu 10.10
[13:06] <israfil> now the resolution works, but i have a problem with the reaction time of the graphics. e.g. when i scroll down a text, i have to click to be able to see the text i want to see after scrolling
[13:08] <Sven12345> how do i update drivers for Geforce GT220 graphic card in Ubuntu 10.10
[13:09] <llutz_> !nvidia > Sven12345
[13:09] <Karen_m> soreau, scroll?  scroll lock?  nothing happens
[13:09] <llutz_> Karen_m: scroll = mousewheel scrolling
[13:09] <soreau> Karen_m: Scroll as in the scroll wheel on you mouse
[13:09] <LjL> Pr3nt1c3: you wrote "maveric" instead of "maverick"
[13:09] <Pr3nt1c3> \o
[13:10] <Karen_m> wow
[13:10] <LjL> Pr3nt1c3: and anyway, torproject.org doesn't seem to have a Maverick package yet - just Lucid
[13:10]  * Pr3nt1c3 facepalms
[13:10] <Karen_m> very neat
[13:10] <Pr3nt1c3> lucid won't work, I tried it
[13:10] <llutz_> Pr3nt1c3: get the source.tar.gz, build yourself
[13:11] <LjL> Pr3nt1c3: i guess you might try the debian testing package (no guarantees though)
[13:11] <Pr3nt1c3> I'll try, haven't done it before (hence the nick suggesting noobness)
[13:12] <Pr3nt1c3> woops, I tried hardy before, not lucid... thanks a bunch!
[13:12] <LjL> hardy's a bit too old :)
[13:13] <LjL> (although i run it)
[13:13] <Xyrfo> does covergloobus work on maverick yet
[13:14] <Karen_m> I setup a bunch of snippets in gedit.  I've rebooted and what not, and now they are gone.  Where did they go?
[13:16] <tgywa> HI
[13:16] <sebsebseb> tgywa: hi
[13:17] <tgywa> sebsebseb, where can I get Kermik packages for Lucid?
[13:17] <Pr3nt1c3> ok, next question: in compiz-gui... I've enabled desktop cube, however I appear unable to get an image on top, and bottom of cube. just a plain color
[13:17] <Pr3nt1c3> pointer / link?
[13:17] <sebsebseb> tgywa: Kermik?  Karmic?
[13:17] <tgywa> sebsebseb, Karmic
[13:17] <sebsebseb> tgywa: packages for what?
[13:17] <researcher1> may I get guidance on maverick here
[13:18] <test1> hello all, I want to upgrade from ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10,  now on ubuntu 10.04 my file system is EXT4, can I upgrade to 10.10? it will change my file system?
[13:18] <sebsebseb> tgywa: that do what?
[13:18] <tgywa> sebsebseb, php 5.2 ... Lucid has php 5.3
[13:18] <sebsebseb> tgywa: why would you wnt to downgrade?
[13:18] <tgywa> sebsebseb, no I want to run both php 5.2 and php 5.3
[13:18] <llutz_> test1: a- you can b- it won't change
[13:18] <LjL> tgywa: that's not possible
[13:18] <Pr3nt1c3> do I need to use .png instead of .jpg?
[13:18] <sebsebseb> tgywa: as far as I know you can't just do that
[13:19] <bricky> hello is there anyone who uses UNR?
[13:19] <test1> llutz_: but if I want the new file system that came with ubuntu 10.10? I need to install it from scrach?
[13:19] <sebsebseb> test1: btrfs isn't properly stable yet in 10.10 and such
[13:20] <LjL> test1, ext4 is pretty new itself.
[13:20] <sebsebseb> test1: plus would need to make a seperate /boot in in another file system for it, since Ubuntu isn't set up to use it properly yet, that will be 11.04 probably
[13:20] <test1> it will be batter to stay with EXT4?
[13:20] <sebsebseb> test1: for now yes
[13:20] <sebsebseb> test1: probably so in your case
[13:20] <LjL> test1: yes
[13:20] <test1> ok.. I'll stay with EXT4 for now... thanks
[13:21] <sebsebseb> test1: however will be good when most distros are using btrfs by defaults, and snapshots can be used easy and so on, but yeah that should be next year :)
[13:22] <test1> :)
[13:23] <djzn> is it only me having ANNOYING indicator-applet bugs, like a black rectangle beside the ethernet indicator or such thing?
[13:23] <test1> if I will install ubuntu 10.10 from scrach, it will ask me which file system I want to use? ext4 or vtrfs?
[13:23] <bazhang> test1, no
[13:23] <sebsebseb> test1: by default you get Ext4, if you do a manual install you can do other file systems
[13:24] <bazhang> test1, you need the debian-installer alternate cd and need to explicitly choose it
[13:24] <test1> oh I see...
[13:24] <test1> so the default file system in ubuntu 10.10 is still EXT4, am I right?
[13:24] <sebsebseb> bazhang: as far as I know btrfs can be installed from the desktop CD
[13:24] <sebsebseb> test1: yes
[13:25] <test1> ok
[13:25] <bazhang> sebsebseb, perhaps so, installed during beta, though it would have to be via manual set up
[13:25] <sebsebseb> bazhang: yes via the manual set up
[13:25] <test1> thanks a lot guys :)
[13:26] <sebsebseb> bazhang: and gparted can do it as well as far as I know
[13:26] <afallenhope> !ati

[13:29] <rob_w> is there a way to ALWAYS let gdm autologin .. so even when you kill -9 Xorg ?
[13:30] <afallenhope> Hey, I'm running AMD 64 Ubuntu 10.04 and I can't get the proprietary  drivers. I used to be able to.. but now I can't. it doesn't show up.. it USED to.. but no longer available after I purged the drivers. what do I need to do to change it so I can use it again in working order?
[13:30] <afallenhope> I'm currently doing a dist-upgrade
[13:30] <djzn> hey anyone knows a workaround for the ethernet applet indicator bug?
[13:30] <Chell> ... still nice to actually see rxvt-unicode doing it's work ;)
[13:35] <Kruptein> after trying installing libreoffice3 I always get errors: that I need the dependency libobasis3.3-en-us-calc,...(-draw,...)   and that I should do apt-get install -f  to solve this,   however the latter   gives this kind of errors:

[13:35] <BugeyeD> hi all. anyone know if burn-to-cd is purposefully disabled in rhythmbox on the latest netbook edition?
[13:35] <undecim> BugeyeD: I doubt it.
[13:36] <undecim> BugeyeD: More likely, if it's disabled, but you have a cd, rhythmbox isn't detecting it.
[13:36] <afallenhope> Hey, I'm running AMD 64 Ubuntu 10.04 and I can't get the proprietary  drivers. I used to be able to.. but now I can't. it doesn't show up.. it USED to.. but no longer available after I purged the drivers. what do I need to do to change it so I can use it again in working order?
[13:37] <undecim> BugeyeD: Oh wait, there is a seperate package for the rhythmbox cdrecorder
[13:37] <Gandalf84> hi
[13:37] <BugeyeD> undecim: i thought they should have used the same package as with standard desktop (which does work). the netbook sees the cd - i installed NBR from the same drive.
[13:37] <afallenhope> !ati
[13:37] <undecim> BugeyeD: Make sure you have rhythmbox-plugin-cdrecorder
[13:37] <BugeyeD> undecim: yup, that's installed (apparently by default). i also installed the separate burning app package as well (brasero).
[13:38] <wgx> 大家好
[13:38] <BugeyeD> undecim: the thing that bugs me is that despite having the plugin package installed, it doesn't show up under plugins in the rhythmbox menus.
[13:38] <Pr3nt1c3> !cn | wgx
[13:38] <undecim> BugeyeD: Did you enabled the plugin?
[13:38] <brunot> Hi
[13:38] <BugeyeD> undecim: it doesn't show up under plugins
[13:38] <Gandalf84> i open my Music folder with MediaPlayer, but i forgot to remove the option "open always this kind of file with this application", now if i click on my Home folder it will be open with MediaPlayer, how can i restore the default settings?
[13:39] <undecim> BugeyeD: Do you have rhythmbox-plugins?
[13:39] <brunot> did someone already upgrade to 10.10 and has audio/sound problems ?
[13:39] <BugeyeD> yes. it was installed by default.
[13:40] <BugeyeD> brunot: on the contrary, one of my "problems" went away after updating to 10.10 ...
[13:40] <Ichat> Gandalf84:   there should be an aplication preference app in your  settings pannel
[13:40] <BugeyeD> undecim: yes. it was installed by default.
[13:40] <brunot> lucky you bugeyed !
[13:40] <undecim> BugeyeD: What about this list of rhythmbox suggests?: gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad, gnome-codec-install, gnome-control-center, gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly, brasero, rhythmbox-plugin-coherence. Anything missing from that list?
[13:40] <Gandalf84> Ichat there is nothing about folders
[13:41] <wgx> Everybody is British or American?
[13:41] <Ichat> Gandalf84:  -   you might want to open the folder in natilus and show hidden files ....
[13:42] <LjL> wgx: not really, but the channel is english-speaking
[13:42] <Gandalf84> Ichat: yes, i want to open folders with nautilus
[13:42] <BugeyeD> undecim: not sure, i'll have to go take a look. but it seems likely to me that the -burner plugin would suck in anything it needed. and -burner was installed by default.
[13:42] <brunot> wgx: nope, french
[13:42] <undecim> BugeyeD: I know, it is strange
[13:42] <BugeyeD> wgx: i'm martian
[13:42] <magnetron> wgx: we all speak english here
[13:42] <Ichat> Gandalf84    in terminal   sudo nautilus /home/yourname/yourfolder
[13:43] <BugeyeD> undecim: thanks for the ideas, i'll keep digging. or give up, not sure. :)
[13:43] <wgx> Haha ~ sorry I am Chinese
[13:43] <Gandalf84> ok, but how to restore the opening of a folder with nautilus when click on folder icon?
[13:43] <undecim> BugeyeD: Hey, I found this package in aptitude, ubuntu-netbook-default-settings. I'll look in it and see what I find.
[13:44] <researcher1> I want to install packages by task using synaptic of maverick but this service seems unavailable.Kindly advice me
[13:44] <Ichat> Gandalf84:   -  im not sure but logics would say  there's some kind of   .desktop file (of some sorts)
[13:44] <Gandalf84> where?
[13:45] <Guest1172> researcher1: try Ubuntu Software Center
[13:45] <Ichat> gandalf84  in the fubar folder
[13:46] <researcher1> Guest1172: But that feature to install by task is not there
[13:46] <syareez> hye
[13:46] <Gandalf84> Ichat: in widnows when using explorer there is "Folder Options" and there i can find all the file extensions association with apps
[13:46] <rusty149> researcher1: what do you mean by task?
[13:46] <Gandalf84> there is something like this in ubuntu?
[13:46] <BugeyeD> wgx: no worries. i get more flack from being martian than you're likely to get by being chinese
[13:47] <researcher1> rusty149: like you select Edubuntu server and it installs everything needed for that or a print server and the like
[13:47] <Gandalf84> ok, done!
[13:48] <Gandalf84> i open nautilus with terminal and than right click on the folder / open with "Nautilus" with option "open always with this app" checked
[13:48] <rusty149> researcher1: Well firstly you need to run the Server distro for that (not the desktop)
[13:48] <rusty149> researcher1: Then try the 'tasksel' command
[13:49] <researcher1> ok
[13:49] <zombie-robot> ubuntu does not recognize my esata pci card
[13:50] <rusty149> researcher1: just run tasksel from terminal on desktop version and you will see edubuntu server on the list
[13:50] <wgx> I am true Chinese ~ the WINDOWS are used with LINUX and ~

[13:50] <Ichat> Gandalf84:  - sorry -  did you get it
[13:51] <ubuntudude> Why would I choose to use a filesystem other than the default?
[13:51] <ae86-drifter> im about to do a clean 10.10 install, i backed up my home folder to a seperate ext4 partition and also copied my etc folder just incase i need something from there.. is there something else i should back up?
[13:51] <Ichat> ubuntudude:  - because you can ....
[13:51] <killawat31> either slim or gmd
[13:51] <erry> So, how well does ubuntu 10.10 work?
[13:51] <shane2peru> where can I check the crontab log??
[13:52] <ubuntudude> Ichat, ....
[13:52] <ae86-drifter> i saved my 4gb apt cache as well
[13:52] <Ichat> ubuntudude:  -all filesystems have thair pro's and cons
[13:52] <brunot> erry : works fine in general. But I have a problem with it: sound only works through my headset now
[13:52] <llutz_> ae86-drifter: backup the list of installed packges too: aptitude  --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-package
[13:52] <erry> That's my cue to not update yet
[13:52] <erry> >_<
[13:53] <ae86-drifter> llutz, i cant boot it
[13:53] <erry> btw it still won't start ion my toshiba

[13:53] <wgx> 会不会有中国人在这里聊天呢
[13:53] <wgx> 韩国人？
[13:53] <Ichat> ubuntudude:  for example if you have an old  Compact Flash disk  you would beter format it with  a ext2 if you can..     but if you want  a  network filesystem you might want  zfs or btrfs (beta)

[13:55] <ae86-drifter> install crypto-disk

[13:55] <Spider_fred> ok thx

[13:56] <ae86-drifter> llutz, can i get the list of installed packages like that, with a live cd only in my computer?
[13:56] <ubuntudude> Ichat, do you know of a good comparison guide of sorts in semi-idiot speak?
[13:56] <WXZ> what's the WM that gnome uses?
[13:56] <sulumar> Metacity
[13:56] <llutz_> WXZ: metacity
[13:56] <WXZ> oh right.
[13:57] <Ichat> ubuntudude:  - not really but give me a min i might be able to find  one
[13:57] <HugsAlot> Can you run an already installed Windows 7 Partition inside Ubuntu? Looked up VMWare and VirtualBox via google, but all I keep finding is "INSTALL windows 7 in ..."
[13:58] <ae86-drifter> when i am on the live cd, can i retreive a list of packages installed on my hard disk?
[13:58] <ae86-drifter> HugsAlot, download clonezilla and image your disk, then restore the image to the VM
[13:58] <llutz_> ae86-drifter: chroot into your disk-install
[13:59] <ZykoticK9_> HugsAlot, you can see the VBox Raw disk/partition instructions at http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch09.html#rawdisk (Note the warning at the top, and I have never tried/tested this)
[13:59] <ae86-drifter> llutz, ok i'll try that thanks
[13:59] <snoop_> join #ubuntu-german
[13:59] <HugsAlot> ae86-drifter, Which VM "?client?" are we talking about?
[14:00] <ae86-drifter> VMware, VBox, anything, all you need to do is boot the clonezilla disk in the VM, select the previously created image
[14:00] <harpal> how to add script to startup??
[14:00] <Snadder> Is it possible to install php 5.2 from .deb into Ubuntu 10.04?.. side by side of php5.3 ?
[14:00] <ae86-drifter> safest option...
[14:00] <brunot> erry: I suggest you 1st try 10.10 from live CD and test what's important for you
[14:00] <kishon> whenever i run some command I get an "illegal instruction" error.. any idea on what's the error about
[14:00] <llutz_> harpal: user-startup or system?
[14:00] <harpal> llutz_: system
[14:01] <HugsAlot> ae86-drifter, I'll see what this comes up with :) Wish me luck!
[14:01] <llutz_> harpal: add it to /etc/rc.local
[14:01] <xananax> Hello, I will pass as stupid but here goes: in windows, after connecting my ethernet cable, I "create a new connection" in order to enter the username and password I am given. How would I do something similar in Ubuntu? I've tried looking it up, but I don't even know the keywords to search for
[14:01] <ae86-drifter> HugsAlot, good luck..
[14:01] <harpal> llutz_: ok
[14:02] <seba_> Help....I can´t add a DNS in etc/resolv.conf, then it erases again
[14:02] <Ichat> ubuntu check your  Private msg
[14:02] <Ichat> ubuntudude: check your  Private msg
[14:02] <llutz_> seba_: add it to networkmanager or /etc/network/interfaces (whatever you use)
[14:02] <manu91> hi
[14:03] <manu91> someone use b43-fwcutter?
[14:04] <recmajkemi> can anyone try run kradioripper for me in 10.10 mine wont even start
[14:04] <jinx_> how can I reset a USB device from the command line?
[14:04] <hogbog> Is there a known problem with Ubuntu 10.10 where various buttons on my mouse stop working after a while? I've been getting this since I've upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10. First mouse button 1 stops working, then a bit later mouse button 2, or sometimes the scrollwheel. I'm getting this with different mice. It seems to also affect my keyboard occasionally, where it starts lagging or just becomes completely dead (but I can still switch to a
[14:04] <hogbog> VT with ALT+F1). Also, restarting X fixes the issue immediately, so I doub't it's some weird HW problem affecting all my input devices.
[14:04] <seba_> I add it to the program "GAdmin-BINS" but it erase too. I supouse that i need use /etc/network/interfaces ?
[14:04] <WXZ> how can I tell if something is a "metapackage"
[14:04] <ubuntudude> Ichat, WOW thanks so much man =)
[14:04] <hogbog> there's also nothing on dmesg or /var/log/messages or /var/log/Xorg.0.log as far as I can tell
[14:04] <WXZ> rather than just a package?
[14:04] <ubuntudude> that was very helpful just what i needed =)
[14:04] <HugsAlot> ae86-drifter, Clonezilla isn't available in the Package Manager or Software Center. Am I doing it wrong?
[14:04] <hogbog> it's really driving me crazy as I am trying to get work done :(
[14:04] <Ichat> ubuntudude:  - yw.
[14:04] <ae86-drifter> llutz, i didnt know you could chroot, that's awesome!!
[14:05] <llutz_> seba_: if you're not using networkmanager, yes
[14:05] <xananax> manu91: I just did yesterday...It worked out of the box. Uninstalled ndiswrapper that I was using before, and apt-got cutter
[14:05] <ae86-drifter> HugsAlot, it is a liveCD, get the one based on ubuntu..
[14:05] <CyberCod2> anyone have any idea why my /var/log/kern.log is 4 gigabytes big?
[14:05] <markbieber> hi, i have a problem with my printer, when i try to clean its heads or anything with cgnpji utility, apparently it uses lpr program to do so. And lpr doesnt seem to recognize its commands...
[14:05] <HugsAlot> ae86-drifter, Doh... Alright, time to go into clone-mode for a while sigh...
[14:05] <seba_> ok, i´ll try
[14:06] <xananax> manu91: so if you want help, I can't give any (I am a total newbie) but if you want to check if it works, well, I had a good experience at least
[14:06] <ae86-drifter> http://clonezilla.org/download/sourceforge/alternative/iso-zip-files.php
[14:06] <markbieber> it just shows a help message whatever parameters are used to it
[14:06] <siekooc> hi all
[14:06] <ae86-drifter> oh hes gone
[14:07] <xananax> Hello, anyone knows how to set-up a username/password for my ethernet connection? Or at least give me some keywords to google?
[14:07] <siekooc> test test
[14:07] <markbieber> ...or when i try to print something with lpr command it shows help message to
[14:08] <llutz_> xananax: for a pppoe-connection? use pppoeconf
[14:08] <hogbog> is it possible do downgrade from 10.10 to 10.04?
[14:08] <hogbog> s/do/to/
[14:09] <Pici> !downgrade | hogbog
[14:09] <jamw> After upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10, when I try and tail -f a file it says "Cannot watch x,: No space left on device". What do?
[14:09] <manu91> xananax: I installed it yesterday too on ubuntu 10.10 and a bug appear...the installation dont end..and since that i cant install nothing
[14:09] <hogbog> sigh
[14:09] <hogbog> guess I should wait longer next time before upgrading
[14:09] <recmajkemi> can anyone try run kradioripper for me in 10.10 mine wont even start
[14:10] <xananax> manu91: then I think you should be looking for help on how to remove files after an installation hanged, I doubt that the problem comes from cutter itself (but as I said before, total newbie here, so I give this advice with great uncertainty)
[14:10] <nomaxiri> I upgraded to 10.10 from 10.04 now I can't activate visual effects on my ATI RADEON HD3400
[14:10] <ae86-drifter> lol
[14:10] <xananax> llutz: yes, thank you, that's how it's called
[14:10] <xananax> llutz: I'll try to use that and report back
[14:10] <ae86-drifter> im scared to do this upgrade
[14:11] <llutz_> markbieber: "apt-cache policy cups-bsd| grep Insta"
[14:11] <hogbog> i wish I hadn't, I have to go reinstall ubuntu now
[14:11] <hogbog> ubuntuforums.org not loading for anyone?
[14:12] <hogbog> google shows a hit for the problem I'm having but i can't load the damn page :s
[14:12] <manu91> xananax: haha okok thank you =) i will try to install the lastes version (yn)
[14:12] <ZykoticK9_> hogbog, ubuntuforums is working here, can you see the google cache for the page?
[14:13] <elb0w> I am trying to get my ubuntu install to work however the screen turns off once it goes past boot. After research we found that we made need to make the setting "usedisplaydevice 'DFP'" may enable it as I use DVI. However I do not have a Xorg.conf, how can I make this work?
[14:13] <hogbog> ZykoticK9_, ooh thanks that did the trick
[14:13] <ubuntu10_2010> quick question - where are the services for Ubuntu 9.10 ?
[14:13] <hogbog> must be some weird routing problem
[14:13] <ubuntu10_2010> you know for starting/stopping apache, telnetd, etc ?
[14:14] <hogbog> anyway it looks like my 'mouse button stops working' issue is something other people are getting as well and is triggered by pressing multimedia keys on one's keyboard
[14:14] <llutz_> ubuntu10_2010: service <servicename> start/stop
[14:14] <ubuntu10_2010> no, the GRAPHICAL user interface
[14:15] <ubuntu10_2010> It was in 8.X I know, it's not installed by default in 9.10
[14:15] <ZykoticK9_> ubuntu10_2010, the GUI service thing was last seen in 9.04 I believe
[14:15] <ubuntu10_2010> ?
[14:15] <llutz_> ubuntu10_2010: i guess its gone, due to upstart
[14:15] <ubuntu10_2010> They removed it ?
[14:15] <_kafka> how do i run a gui app with sudo?
[14:15] <LjL> !gksudo | _kafka
[14:15] <ubuntu10_2010> well, I am digusted
[14:16] <ZykoticK9_> _kafka, be sure to use gksu or gksudo for GUI command (or things WILL break)
[14:16] <nzerox> hey guys
[14:16] <_kafka> thx
[14:16] <_kafka> that was easy
[14:16] <markbieber> llutz, what does this command supposed to do? it writes "unable to locatepackagecups-bsdj"
[14:16] <ae86-drifter> llutz, thanks for that, i now have a list of all of the installed packages, i am about to do a fresh install now, anything else you can suggest at all?
[14:17] <jochenaxl1> hi, i've got a problem with dm-crypt since 10.10. using recent kernel, it does not accept my pw. when taking old kernel, it works. any idea? :)
[14:17] <llutz_> markbieber: just check if cups-bsd is installed, since the old "lpr" package won't work right with cups
[14:17] <xananax> llutz: I ran pppoeconf, and as far as I can make sense out of what I was doing, I configured it right; however, ifconfig ppp0 gives me "device not found"...Any idea?
[14:17] <nzerox> when using ssh key pairs, should i generate one key pair and use that for all my machines or should i generate a key pair for each of my machines??
[14:17] <undecim> nzerox: One key pair for each machine
[14:18] <llutz_> xananax: sorry i don't know much about pppoe, since i never used it. try "sudo pon"
[14:18] <undecim> nzerox: That way, if someone steals a key from one of your machines, you can revoke access to that key only
[14:18] <llutz_> markbieber:and the command was "apt-cache policy cups-bsd | grep Insta"
[14:18] <nzerox> undecim, thanks man
[14:19] <llutz_> ae86-drifter: i guess you've saved the most important things
[14:19] <xananax> llutz, answer: "/usr/sbin/pppd: In file /etc/ppp/peers/provider: unrecognized option '/dev/modem'"
[14:19] <ae86-drifter> llutz, okay, cool, if i forgot something it's your fault!
[14:19] <llutz_> ae86-drifter: send me the bill
[14:19] <ae86-drifter> thanks dude
[14:20] <ae86-drifter> here it goes...

[14:24] <Mithos^> hi
[14:24] <hogbog> strange, 'wget ubuntuforums.org' seems to work, I can telnet to it, but actually loading the page in firefox doesn't work; it hangs forever on 'reading data from..'
[14:24] <hogbog> wonder what the heck could cause that
[14:24] <LjL> hogbog: wfm
[14:25] <Mithos^> how can I change the settings so that apt/synaptic/etc use my network webcache
[14:25] <hogbog> wfm?
[14:25] <Mithos^> ?
[14:25] <rob_w> where das gdm save which windowmangar to start .. i want metacity only on :0.0 and not on :0.1
[14:25] <LjL> hogbog: works for me
[14:25] <undecim> hogbog: Problems with the http server
[14:25] <hogbog> LjL, oh, hrm yeah I dunno, must be something weird on my side
[14:25] <undecim> hogbog: Though I can get to it just fine.
[14:26] <preetam> pls help.my wifi is disabled after upgrading to ubuntu 10.10
[14:26] <BluesKaj> Howdy
[14:26] <undecim> hogbog: Close firefox, rename the .mozilla directory, and then see if you can get to it
[14:26] <hogbog> oh, it *does* work in Chromium, how weird is that :p
[14:27] <Ken8521> preetam: whats your wifi device?
[14:27] <preetam> Ken8521 how to know?
[14:28] <kpoman> hey guys hello all !
[14:28] <Ken8521> preetam: is it USB or internal?.. 32 or 64bit?
[14:28] <undecim> preetam: Hello again. Did you finish installing wicd?
[14:28] <Mossyfunk> Is there any reason I would want a journaled filesystem on /boot?
[14:28] <preetam> Ken8521 it is internal
[14:28] <hogbog> undecim, hmm it now seems to hang on reading data from yui.yahooapis.com, but I'll try renaming .mozilla
[14:28] <kpoman> I am having a big problem here. I try to copy files to a "/dev/sda5 on /media/49EAAFEA24C3860A type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096,default_permissions)"
[14:28] <Ken8521> preetam: well, then lspci in a terminal, should output your wireless chipset... it's probably broadcom or ralink, since it didn't work out of the box
[14:29] <kpoman> everything copies fine, then I reboot the PC and the files copied are gone... WTF is this ????
[14:29] <preetam> hi undecim I install wicd .actually i am not comfortable with wicd for connecting to mobile GPRS connection etc.
[14:29] <kpoman> I already lost 3 VM's and lot of time
[14:29] <preetam> my wifi is Intel PRO
[14:29] <undecim> preetam: ah, okay
[14:29] <kpoman> do someone have any idea ?why does it show as if the files are there, then when rebooting (on windows, or on ubuntu) the files are gone
[14:29] <Ken8521> preetam: there's several intel pro's..w hich one..
[14:30] <undecim> Ken8521: I was helping preetam yesterday. He has an internal intel card, which works fine from the command line. Its the network manager that isn't working
[14:30] <Guest1301> anybody
[14:30] <undecim> Ken8521: It fails with an error that it can't get the NetworkManager DBus name
[14:30] <Ken8521> did you try reinstalling networkmanager?
[14:30] <preetam> the rfkill list command shows no soft or hard block for my wifi
[14:31] <undecim> Ken8521: How would that help?
[14:31] <preetam> even i reinstall the network manager but it is of no use
[14:31] <Ken8521> undecim: well.. if the network manager is erroring out, maybe something got borked in the upgrade.. reinstall it... but it sounds like he tried that
[14:31] <undecim> Ken8521: It's like it's trying to run two network managers at once...
[14:31] <elb0w> I dont get that in version 10.10 in 2010 the os can have a problem detecting DVI?
[14:31] <elb0w> how is that possible
[14:32] <llutz_> elb0w: nvidia?
[14:32] <liqiming> #join ubuntu-cn
[14:32] <undecim> Ken8521: Actually, maybe a purge and a reinstall...
[14:32] <elb0w> llutz, yeah
[14:32] <Ken8521> undecim: then check currently running apps, and see if there's two running, and kill one..
[14:32] <undecim> Ken8521: Tried that. No other network manager is running
[14:32] <llutz_> elb0w: stupid nvidia cards always use analog-out as vid#1
[14:33] <Ken8521> undecim: usually when you choose to reinstall, i believe it purges the old one
[14:33] <jadarite> you mean   /join #ubuntu-cn
[14:33] <llutz_> err primary
[14:33] <elb0w> llutz, whats the fix?
[14:34] <hogbog> ok I think I found the bug for my mouse button stops working issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/udev/+bug/637208
[14:34] <BluesKaj> preetam , Ken8521 , maybe checking /etc/resolv.conf for to make sure the nameserver IP and gateway (router) are listed
[14:34] <llutz_> elb0w: personal xorg.conf where devices were set correct. pls google for more info, its too long ago i needed it
[14:34] <elb0w> k
[14:34] <hogbog> bummer that it didn't get fixed in final release (makes me wonder what the point of beta testing is?)
[14:34] <llutz_> elb0w: the nvidia-driver has options for that
[14:34] <Ken8521> BluesKaj: but if the machine is apparently connecting via terminal...
[14:34] <kpoman> any idea someone ?
[14:34] <preetam> BluesKaj i am connected to internet through my ethernet  card
[14:34] <elb0w> llutz, cant get it to boot :P how can I install a nvidia driver
[14:34] <llutz_> elb0w: my workaround was to buy a card with 2x DVI ;)
[14:35] <preetam> but the wifi is not working
[14:35] <kpoman> why the files seem to be there ( i can even open them from the new location) and when I reboot the files are not there anymore
[14:35] <elb0w> llutz, lma
[14:35] <elb0w> lol*
[14:35] <undecim> Ken8521: Well, I just reinstalled wicd and still have my settings, which are stored system-wide
[14:35] <Ken8521> preetam: i thought you said you could sign on to your wifi through terminal?
[14:35] <Ken8521> hmm
[14:35] <BluesKaj> preetam, Ken8521 ok
[14:36] <undecim> preetam: You have this machine connected via ethernet, correct?
[14:36] <preetam> Ken8521 but wicd detects local wifi
[14:36] <_mrn_ver_> hi all
[14:36] <preetam> undecim yes u r correct
[14:36] <_mrn_ver_> i have installed the ubuntu in my laptop first
[14:36] <kpoman> please help me
[14:37] <kpoman> I lost lot of data because of that
[14:37] <kpoman> :(
[14:37] <_mrn_ver_> not  when i wanna install windows xp the system is  not detecting the cd
[14:37] <oles> is there any differences between netbook and desktop versions of 10.10 in terms of energy savings?
[14:37] <undecim> preetam: Can you go to a terminal, completely remove and then reinstall network manager with this command: "sudo apt-get purge network-manager && sudo apt-get install network-manager"
[14:37] <preetam> my etc/resolve.conf  content is "# Generated by Connection Manager options edns0 nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>"
[14:37] <_mrn_ver_> how to install windows?
[14:37] <llutz_> elb0w: try         Option "ConnectedMonitor" "DFP"  in Device-Section
[14:37] <Ken8521> _mrn_ver_: thats a windows support issue, try #windows
[14:37] <_mrn_ver_> ok
[14:38] <_mrn_ver_> thank u
[14:38] <llutz_> elb0w: or try using nvidia-settings to generate a xorg.conf for you
[14:38] <tado> hey all. quite a few issues after 10.10 upgrade. first in order of importance: windows don't display the edges. some come up with the bar "file, edit. etc", some don't. none comes with the three buttons to close, minise or maximise
[14:38] <oles> hey guys
[14:38] <kpoman> any ideas ?
[14:38] <kpoman> :(
[14:39] <philsf> hi, since yesterday my pidgin doesn't connect to either msn or gtalk. Is this happening to anyone else?
[14:39] <Chell> kpoman, how did you mount it?
[14:39] <kpoman> Chell: gnome mounted it
[14:40] <undecim> philsf: My gtalk works fine
[14:40] <kpoman> i was able to copy lot of things there, by gui's, by command lines, etc..
[14:40] <Chell> usb-stick?
[14:40] <kpoman> and even to run the stuff from them
[14:40] <kpoman> no. it is a psyhical partition on my main hard drive
[14:40] <Ken8521> philsf: fine here, what version of pidgin
[14:40] <ehcah> Are the repositories different under 10.10 than 10.04? Or maybe the 10.10 install is missing some?
[14:41] <undecim> ehcah: There will be some slight differences, and some apps from third party repos and PPAs may not have been built for 10.10 yet.
[14:41] <kpoman> Chell: i dont know why files figure like there, present, but then after a reboot they are not
[14:41] <kpoman> ok
[14:41] <Ken8521> ehcah: i believe you should remove 3rd party repo's before upgrading
[14:41] <philsf> Ken8521, maverick version, 2.7.3-1ubuntu3
[14:41] <ae86-drifter> why ubuntu 10.10 website got link to usb install when pendrive installer only supports 10.04?
[14:41] <kpoman> this is very critical, such a behaviour
[14:42] <kpoman> could lead one to loss of data
[14:42] <kpoman> if i did a mv instead of a cp
[14:42] <kpoman> pfff
[14:42] <ehcah> I had installed mono a few days ago and now can't.

[14:43] <Ken8521> kpoman: i'd be willing to bet you fubarred your terminal commands... but i dunno
[14:43] <elb0w> How do I tell ubuntu to use a Xorg.conf?
[14:43] <llutz_> elb0w: copy it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf and restart X. it should be used automatically
[14:43] <undecim> elb0w: Just add the options you need to the Xorg.conf
[14:44] <elb0w> llutz, will try ty
[14:44] <amikrop> Hello, since I installed the proprietary nVidia drivers, my boot splash image disappeared, the boot resolution got too low, and I get ugly big letters instead. So, I installed startupmanager to fix that. But when I set resolution 1600x1200 (and other options such as "use splash image" and "no text during boot") I get a "out of sync" from my screen instead of the boot logo. Any help, please?
[14:44] <amikrop> What can I set as options to startup manager
[14:45] <preetam> hi after reinstalling network manager still the network manager status shows " Networking disable."
[14:45] <amikrop> to get my old nice boot splash graphics back?
[14:45] <llutz_> grm, why will cups-pdf will be removed on upgrade .04 -> .10? it still exists in 10.10 :(
[14:45] <jpartogi> @sean is there any reason why the Boolean in ripple is a module instead of class? This creates conflict with other library that also extends Boolean but defined it as class
[14:45] <amikrop> My screen resolution is 1920x1080
[14:45] <elb0w> llutz, how can I generate a xorg.conf?
[14:45] <Pici> jpartogi: Wrong channel methinks.
[14:45] <preetam> undecim no use of reinstalling network manager still the network manager is "Networking Disable".
[14:46] <llutz_> elb0w: xorg -configure       or using "nvidia-settings"
[14:46] <undecim> preetam: Open a terminal and make sure the network manager is running with "sudo service network-manager restart" and if it still doesn't show up, press alt+f2 and type "killall nm-applet" and then again with "nm-applet"
[14:46] <jpartogi> ooops
[14:46] <jpartogi> sorry
[14:46] <undecim> preetam: Wait, did you remove wicd?
[14:46] <preetam> undecim no the wicd in there but not running..
[14:47] <undecim> preetam: Well, the wicd server will still be running. In the terminal run "sudo service wicd stop" and then do the instructions I gave.
[14:47] <elb0w> llutz, 1) does gdm have to be stopped for that 2) how can I change runlevel?
[14:48] <jimcooncat> I made a little script called "yman", which takes one argument, a man page name, and displays it in yelp. I'd like to have bash tab-complete for my yman the same as for man. Where do I find the tab-complete specifications?
[14:48] <undecim> elb0w: To reset your X server, you should be able to just relog
[14:48] <llutz_> elb0w: sudo service gdm restart
[14:48] <elb0w> llutz, I mean to generate the xorg does gdm have to be stopped?
[14:49] <llutz_> elb0w: yes
[14:49] <elb0w> ok
[14:49] <undecim> elb0w: It shouldn't have to be
[14:49] <elb0w> undecim, I think it doesnt auto detect with gdm
[14:49] <elb0w> unless im mistaken
[14:49] <undecim> elb0w: Unless you are doing Xorg -configure
[14:49] <preetam> undecim i did the way u said but still the network manager shows status as "Networking Disable"
[14:49] <Mithos^> ok, I changed the network settings to the proxy configuration script. and clicked apply system wide. Now, firefox works, but software center doesn't. help?
[14:49] <elb0w> Yes Xorg -configure
[14:49] <elb0w> llutz, how can I reboot into runlevel 3?

[14:55] <graphitemaster> Xorg for me is broken, i even removed it, and reinstalled it twice
[14:55] <graphitemaster> same for my drivers

[15:05] <elb0w> llutz_, nope did UseDisplayDevice

[15:06] <GuyForget> I'm having an issue with lirc. When I use my remote the event gets interpreted twice. Using irw I see that the event is only being sent once, so I know it is not an issue of my remote control repeating itself. Ubuntu interpreted some of my remote buttons right out of the box, but not all of them. I installed lirc to get the rest of my buttons, but now I think the earlier way ubuntu was reading them is still working.
[15:06] <llutz_> elb0w: doesn't "man nvidia" list/explain those options?

[15:11] <sinnedam> hey guys...newb here, having the hardest time trying to change my ip address to static. I have followed the instructions on running /etc/network/interfaces in terminal and changing the info to static, but it says to save and close the file...how do i do that?
[15:11] <preetam> undecim it shows "network-manager stop/waiting"
[15:12] <Chell> llutz_, when are you supposed to user sudo service ssh ... and when /etc/init.d/ssh ... ?
[15:12] <undecim> preetam: do start instead of restart then... I may be confusing the behavior of Ubuntu and Fedora's service commad
[15:12] <llutz_> sinnedam: sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces    change your lines, save/quit with ctrl-x
[15:12] <Dulak> sinnedam: what editor are you in?  nano?
[15:12] <cg_> hello. i installed the kubuntu10.10, and i got a widget called microblogging on the desktop. anyones knows any introduction on it ?

[15:13] <preetam> undecim "network-manager start/running, process 2967"
[15:13] <zimnyx> llutz_, undecim: Worked. So I should forget about usign /etc/init.d/* directly in current ubuntu?
[15:13] <Dulak> Sinister: hit escape, then :wq<Enter>
[15:13] <llutz_> Chell: /etc/init.d/ is old sysv-init. ubuntu uses upstart now and preferrs service .... syntax. but that won't work with all services afaik
[15:13] <undecim> zimnyx: service is the preferred way, I believe
[15:13] <coz_> cg_,   I have seen this but I dont now anything about it  ,,,you could try in the  #kubuntu channel
[15:13] <Poul|Raider> Dulak, ??? finland ?
[15:13] <Dulak> Sinister: thats short for write and quit
[15:13] <undecim> preetam: Do status again to see if it is still running
[15:13] <cg_> coz_,  thank you , man

[15:14] <preetam> undecim surprisingly the status shows "network-manager stop/waiting"
[15:14] <tensorpudding> i doubt that it'd be removed completely, that would almost surely break POSIX and a lot of software
[15:14] <Poul|Raider> Dulak, Okay :) have fun then :D
[15:15] <qinguishan> hello
[15:15]  * undecim slams his head onto the desk
[15:15] <llutz_> tensorpudding: then they shouldn't have installed upstart, it just confuses things
[15:15] <undecim> preetam: I'm out of ideas until I can figure out how to find what application is using the NetworkManager service
[15:15] <joby> Does anyone have a problem using flash in 10.10
[15:16] <AndChat-> No
[15:16] <janisozaur> how do I disable breadcrumbs in nautilus?
[15:16] <coz_> joby,   I am not but what issue are you having
[15:16] <nigelb> janisozaur: Ctrl + L
[15:16] <janisozaur> !anyone | joby
[15:16] <Dulak> it's a fundamental difference from debian that I don't like, upstart needs more time to mature, but for a workstation it's good enough.  Wouldn't run it on a server though.
[15:16] <undecim> how to list dbus services and/or tell what process is providing a dbus service?
[15:16] <janisozaur> nigelb, it works only for an instance of nautilus, I want a permament fix
[15:17] <Loonatic> Hi there, anyone could tell me what would be the easiest way to have my webserver (apache) ask for a password on a specific folder only for external traffic, i want to local people (192.168.1.*) to be able to browse the folder without entering passwords ?
[15:17] <coz_> janisozaur,   you use elementary  stuff for nautilus?
[15:17] <tgywa> Dulak, yes ... I've installed and dpkg-reconfigure to choose greek alphabet ... but seems that I need to switch to greek(gr) ... tried ... loadkeys gr ... how can I do that
[15:17] <nigelb> janisozaur: ah, that needs a gconf value edit, lemme get that for you
[15:17] <joby> Flash games is easiest page wont load, says try updating your flash player but i have the lastest flash installed allready
[15:17] <undecim> Loonatic: .htaccess
[15:17] <undecim> Loonatic: I'm not too savvy on it though
[15:17] <janisozaur> coz_, don't know what you're talking about. is "elementary stuff" a package or what?
[15:17] <Dulak> tgywa: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow locales localeconf
[15:18] <Loonatic> undecim: i tried to play with .htaccess too but with no luck, so then i think it's back to reading about .htaccess
[15:18] <Dulak> tgywa: if the problem is the locale, that should ask all the right questions
[15:18] <crosbow> i used WUBI and then upgraded my distro -> i still have the windows bootloader, but grub stopped working, so i can't boot ubuntu. (it was like BCD -> GRUB -> ubuntu) any way to fix this? :(
[15:18] <janisozaur> joby, which version? www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
[15:19] <joby> 10.1.999
[15:19] <tado> after upgrade to 10.10 compiz went crazy! can anyone spare two minutes to help fixing it? or has anyone encountered big trouble and already solved it?
[15:19] <preetam> undecim please check this link for the bug  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/659460
[15:19] <janisozaur> joby, there is no such version. do you use gnash?
[15:20] <zelda> test
[15:20] <joby> let me check
[15:20] <nigelb> janisozaur: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9425742&postcount=7
[15:20] <nigelb> that one tells you how to have the location always
[15:20] <undecim> preetam: aha! connman is conflicting then
[15:21] <janisozaur> nigelb, thanks
[15:21] <razz1> any good guides on how to set up proxy to connect to trackers in transmission? any help?
[15:21] <joby> 10.1.999
[15:21] <EddInaBox> Can anyone help me with IEEE1394/Firewire, or suggest where I might get assistance?
[15:21] <undecim> preetam: well, try stopping connman, then restarting network-manager
[15:21] <joby> thats what the link u provided tells me
[15:21] <janisozaur> joby, what browser do you use?
[15:21] <joby> firefox
[15:21] <joby> 3.5
[15:21] <preetam> undecim command to stop is sudo connman stop
[15:22] <janisozaur> joby, "ps ax | grep firefox", find its pid (first column), then "lsof -p <firefox_pid>"
[15:22] <RabidLockerGnome> Does anyone remember that mail client in 10.04 that was an alternative to Evolution, but worked with Evolution?
[15:22] <undecim> preetam: I would imagine. I don't have it installed on my system so I can't check it myself. If you press tab half-way through typing "connman" it should auto-complete if it is a valid option
[15:22] <janisozaur> joby, or rather "lsof -p <firefox_pid> | grep -i flash"
[15:22] <lenzy> hey, why do i get such thinks in the evolution header? =?UTF-8?Q?sch=C3=BClerVZ Zentrale?=
[15:22] <JuJuBee> Can someone help me figure out how to tether a laptop to an android based phone?  Ihave rooted the phone but don't know how to connect to it as the access point (WiFi or USB)
[15:23] <llutz_> lenzy: wrong char-encoding (quoted printable)
[15:24] <preetam> undecim no use the tab shows only connman-applet shall i run kill connman-applet
[15:24] <crosbow> what is the easiest way to install ubuntu? wubi turned out to be the devil.. is USB stick a good idea?
[15:25] <zelda> guys,I met  a problem  "An error occured while mounting /home"
[15:25] <tado> after upgrade to maverick compiz doesn't work. won't enable any effect at all. i have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but nothing. i think it could also be the cause of a very annoying black background that is always present behind the cairo-dock bar. does anyone know how to try and fix it? couldn't find any help online so far...
[15:25] <undecim> preetam: Sorry, I got disconnected. If you sent anything after my last message, I didn't see it.
[15:26] <undecim> zelda: Did it drop you to a busybox shell?
[15:26] <undecim> zelda: And did it give you any info on what the error is?
[15:26] <preetam> undecim shall i run the application kill connman-applet
[15:26] <Wavesonics> hooray!!! Saved my Wubi install!!!!
[15:26] <zelda> nope
[15:27] <zelda> I press s to skip  then everything goes well
[15:27] <zelda> but when restart  error again
[15:27] <undecim> preetam: "sudo service connman stop" should stop connman, then you can "sudo service network-manager start"
[15:27] <kevin_> hi, what is the command line to remove something from blacklist?
[15:27] <joby> im supposed to type that in the terminal?
[15:27] <undecim> preetam: And do the alt+f2 "killall nm-applet" and "nm-applet" if you have to after that
[15:27] <HelloMommy> how come...i set on /etc/fstab a gid=group parameter...and a user who is not in that group has that partition mounted when he starts his session?
[15:28] <janisozaur> joby, yes. and when using irc, be sure to type name of the other person you're talking to in front of message
[15:28] <janisozaur> !tab | joby
[15:28] <Poul|Raider> anyone who got a solution for me, upgraded to 10.10 and it wont boot, says failed waiting for hdd or something, and alert something with uuid of hdd
[15:28] <undecim> HelloMommy: I don't think gid controls who can mount it
[15:29] <preetam> undecim something happen great
[15:29] <HelloMommy> i thought if i set gid...ony members of that group are allowed to mount it
[15:29] <janisozaur> joby, also be sure that firefox with some page that utilises flash is running at the time you execute this command
[15:29] <preetam> undecim now the network-manager status is running.
[15:30] <Dulak> HelloMommy: no that sets the group id of the mount, not who can mount or unmount it, that is handled by the user= or users= options iirc
[15:30] <kevin_> anyboby knows how to remove something from the blacklist?
[15:30] <undecim> preetam: Awesome. If your applet doesn't show networks yet, kill nm-applet and then start it again.
[15:30] <obengdako> hi all skype does not work for me says p2p connection failed any help?
[15:30] <AKPP> i got a problem with my touchpad on my new sony vaio - it seens like ubuntu doesn't recognize it and consequently i cant configure it
[15:30] <preetam> undecim but the "enabale networking" and "enable wireless" is greyed and shows device not managed
[15:30] <janisozaur> kevin_, there are blacklists for modules, perhaps apache and many others, specify more information
[15:30] <HelloMommy> how many user can i specify in users=?
[15:31] <computa_mike> hi - I just upgraded my netbook to UNR 10.10 - When I click the Ubuntu Logo I see like some launchers.  But only web and get new software actally work - nautilus doesn't seem to want to load.  Any ideas?
[15:31] <Wavesonics> is there anyway to migrate a Wubi install to a physical partition?
[15:31] <kevin_> janisozaur, its in modeprobe.d
[15:31] <AKPP> how can i make ubuntu recognize my touchpad? it doesn't, so i can't configure my touchpad..
[15:32] <janisozaur> kevin_, well then you just remove or comment out the line
[15:32] <LSannin> hola alguien conoce algun buen reemplazo de one note>
[15:32] <TANK8465> hey all, has anyone figured out suspend in 10.10?
[15:32] <janisozaur> !es | LSannin
[15:32] <jiffe> anyone have trouble using aee in ubuntu 10.10 ?
[15:32] <undecim> preetam: Did you press alt+f2 and "killall nm-applet" and then "nm-applet" to restart the applet?
[15:32] <jiffe> I'm getting 'sorry, unable to use this terminal type for screen editing' all of a sudden
[15:32] <kevin_> janisozaur, any terminal commands?
[15:33] <janisozaur> AKPP, you may try "modprobe -r psmouse" and after that "modprobe psmouse proto=imps" (once or twice)
[15:33] <VagaStorm> what have they done to increase the speed of 10.10, al my programs start insanly fast compared to 10.4
[15:33] <janisozaur> kevin_, sudo vim <file>
[15:33] <kevin_> thanks
[15:34] <tgywa> Dulak, yes ... I've installed and dpkg-reconfigure to choose greek alphabet ... but seems that I need to switch to greek(gr) ... tried ... loadkeys gr ... how can I do that
[15:34] <Dulak> HelloMommy: use the group= option to specify a group of users to mount
[15:34] <Diverdude> mac runs os2 right? which is based on a nix kernel right?
[15:34] <Dulak> tgywa: I told you all I know on switching the keyboard around, not sure what else there is
[15:34] <HelloMommy> okk
[15:34] <preetam> undecim nm-applet does not shows the network manager in the system tray
[15:34] <undecim> Diverdude: I thought mac is based on the BSD kernel
[15:35] <ddelrio1986> How do I install PHP extension on ubuntu?
[15:35] <Diverdude> undecim, but is BSD not a nix kernel?
[15:35] <tgywa> Dulak, that didn't work
[15:35] <undecim> Diverdude: Yeah.
[15:35] <tlir> ddelrio1986: you mean the php interpreter? are you interested in the command line version or for web development?
[15:35] <AKPP> can someone help me with a touchpad problem?
[15:35] <undecim> preetam: Maybe just "sudo apt-get purge connman" and then restart your computer?
[15:36] <janisozaur> AKPP, did you use sudo?
[15:36] <ddelrio1986> tlir, I've already got LAMP working. I just need to add xmlrpc to my PHP installation. I can't find the ext directory that PHP usually has so that I can point my .ini file at that directory and enable it.
[15:36] <HelloMommy> dulak: is parameter group= allowed in fstab??
[15:36] <AKPP> janisozaur no i'll try that
[15:37] <Dulak> HelloMommy: yes it should be, I read it on the mount man page
[15:37] <fd> hey guys... is this the right channel about 10.10 issues?
[15:37] <tlir> ddelrio1986: did you install it with apt-get?
[15:37] <ddelrio1986> tlir, Yes
[15:37] <TwoD> ddelrio1986: sudo apt-get install php5-xmlrpc didn't do that for you?
[15:37] <tlir> ddelrio1986: and it's not available?
[15:38] <Dulak> HelloMommy: wait, it says only use group, and make sure the user is in the group that owns the device
[15:38] <ddelrio1986> TwoD, I didn't realize that php extensions can be done with apt-get. Let me try that.
[15:38] <scotly> fd: ubuntu 10.10? If you're talking about QML, then yes, if you're talking about ubuntu, probably not.
[15:38] <Dulak> HelloMommy: so look at the device file you are mounting, add the user to the group that owns it, then use just 'group' as the option in fstab
[15:38] <tlir> ddelrio1986: ahh? I just asked you if you used apt-get to install the extension and you said yes :)
[15:39] <TwoD> ddelrio1986: Many of the common ones are available as packages, yes. Just search for those starting with php5-
[15:39] <ddelrio1986> I thought you were asking if I used apt-get to install php itself.
[15:39] <nikola> any media player i try doesnt have time in miliseconds, and i need it for syncing subtitles. i googled it for a longer period of time, but couldnt find it. anyone uses something for that?
[15:39] <tlir> ddelrio1986: nope. run the command TwoD told you about, that's how you install it
[15:39] <marko> where is the problem if i have picture over HDMI and a cannot get sound to play over HDMI. Is ti nvidiva drivers or sound card drivers?
[15:39] <AKPP> janisozaur nothing really happened i think. i just want the "touchpad" tab back in preferences>mouse
[15:39] <ddelrio1986> Thanks for the help tlir and TwoD. I've been running php on Windows for years. Still new to all this Ubuntu stuff. I just used synaptic to get it.
[15:40] <janisozaur> nikola, it's just a guess, but I'd bet that mplayer has such option, try its man page
[15:40] <martin101> hello all, can someone attempt to help me identify a compiz setting I want disabled?
[15:40] <janisozaur> !anyone | martin101
[15:41] <ogionnj> I just upgraded my netbook to Maverick, but the old window manager is still showing (minus the gnome-panel on the top).  Can someone help me get rid of it, and get unity running?
[15:41] <Da_Wrecka> Trying again; I'm running Lucid on an Acer Aspire One, 1.5GB RAM, Intel 945GME graphics chip. I've got an external CRT connected. If the CRT is set to 1024x768, I can play videos without any problems. If the CRT is set to 1280x1024, video playback is black on both screens. I'd like to be able to use 1280x1024. Am I SOL?
[15:41] <nikola> janisozaur, i already tried, but i will give it another shoot
[15:42] <fd> i have a thinkpad t400 and a freshly installed ubuntu 10.10 since some days... sometimes the system becomes very slow and the mouse kind of freezes. this seems to be unrelated to any special program. if i close all programs, system sometimes runs as usual, sometimes not, but the problem returns sooner or later. does this soudn familiar to anyone? the system monitoring shows no problems with ram or cpu
[15:43] <martin101> I want to disable a compiz effect (I think it maybe something to do with compiz) but I can't work out what it is, when I have two windows open and overlapping, if I move the mouse away from the active one, it fades the active one
[15:43] <TwoD> ddelrio1986: If you didn't know, synaptic does the same thing as apt-get just via a GUI. I find almost everything I need in Ubuntu's (or third party) repositiories, it's pure awesomeness compared to the Windows mess =)
[15:44] <simonecuttlefish> hello
[15:44] <Exploiter> martian101 / simon, you need to install advance compiz manager
[15:44] <icko> hi
[15:44] <Da_Wrecka> TwoD: That's not saying much
[15:44] <icko> wath
[15:44] <undecim> martin101: What plugins do you have enabled?
[15:44] <icko> ?
[15:44] <stanley_robertso> hi all
[15:44] <Exploiter> martian101 / simon, so that you can easily configure the settings..!!
[15:44] <martin101> I have installed
[15:44] <martin101> undecim, all sorts
[15:44] <nikola> martin101, Effects - Fading Windows
[15:44] <computa_mike> ogionnj: I had the same problem - I think I just ran sudo apt-get distupdate (or was it upgrade)
[15:45] <TwoD> Da_Wrecka: ?
[15:45] <martin101> I tried disabling that, no difference.
[15:45] <Exploiter> nikola is rite martian just disable that..!!
[15:45] <Hukka> How can I stop gdm user from starting up pulseaudio?
[15:45] <Da_Wrecka> TwoD: Your comment on synaptic?
[15:46] <simonecuttlefish> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=waxat-_tRH8&feature=fvw This is Bach - BEST composer (they all said so :) It's like Linux, you have to feel what you are doing, then it makes sense
[15:46] <TwoD> Da_Wrecka: ah, you agree?
[15:46] <computa_mike> ogionnj: Unity seems fine, but I can't find all my applications in the unit app bar...
[15:46] <joby> Janiszaur: sorry got disconnected
[15:46] <fd> i have a thinkpad t400 and a freshly installed ubuntu 10.10 since some days... sometimes the system becomes very slow and the mouse kind of freezes. this seems to be unrelated to any special program. if i close all programs, system sometimes runs as usual, sometimes not, but the problem returns sooner or later. does this soudn familiar to anyone? the system monitoring shows no problems with ram or cpu
[15:46]  * TwoD is a bit distracted hehe
[15:46] <martin101> nikola, I even logged out and back in again, re-opened advanced compiz manager and it has been disabled but it still does it
[15:46] <Da_Wrecka> TwoD: Yes, but like I say, saying that apt/Synaptic/et cetera is better than the Windows isn't saying much
[15:46] <ogionnj> computa_mike: No luck.  apt-get had nothing to do: 0 upgraded, 0 newly ihstalled, 0 to remove
[15:47] <Da_Wrecka> *Windows mess
[15:47] <computa_mike> ogionnj: My install took ages - in fact at one point the battery ran out.  It was estimating 8 hours to updrade...
[15:47] <computa_mike> ogionnj: what happens if you check for updates?
[15:47] <TwoD> Da_Wrecka: you mean it's an understatement?
[15:47] <TANK8465> FOUND SOLUTION TO MY SUSPEND PROBLEM: if you have usb 3.0, it can cause some conflicts with the kernel. to get suspend working, add SUSPEND_MODULES="xhci-hcd" to /etc/pm/config.d/unload_module . you might have to create the file unload_module yourself.
[15:47] <Da_Wrecka> TwoD: JUst a bit
[15:48] <TwoD> Da_Wrecka: hehe
[15:48] <sbvf> proof that justin bieber is gay  http://adf.ly/91IF
[15:48] <preetam_> undicem the network manager icon is not appearing in the system tray
[15:48] <ogionnj> computa_mike: I've already upgraded without any problems.   Although thinking about it, how do I find out just how much onboard framebuffer my video adapter has?
[15:48] <joby> janisozaur: i coped this into the terminal:  lsof -p<firefox pid> grep -i flash  = bash: firefox: No such file or directory
[15:48] <Da_Wrecka> just so's I can rule that out
[15:48] <momo_> hey, when did 10.10 come out?
[15:48] <undecim> preetam_: Try pressing alt+f2 and type "nm-applet"
[15:49] <Pici> momo_: 10/10/10
[15:49] <LWSDesigns> joby what distro you using
[15:49] <Nagilum_> Da_Wrecka: check /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[15:49] <CarlosP> Q; Im tryn to setup PXE boot for thin clients but cant get more than 3 clients to connect any ideas on what it could be?
[15:49] <joby> ubuntu 10.10
[15:49] <LWSDesigns> kde
[15:49] <Exploiter> 10 oct
[15:49] <momo_> Pici: okay thanks, I was expecting the usual oct 31st :p
[15:49] <computa_mike> ogionnj: not sure then...  I believe the package which drives the interface is ubuntu-netbook
[15:49] <janisozaur> joby, you're supposed to replace "<firefox pid>" with well... its value
[15:49] <ogionnj> computa_mike:  I'll look for it in synaptics
[15:50] <jht330> 有中国人吗
[15:50] <TwoD> Da_Wrecka: I have some experience with that, using nvidia cards. Tried the hardinfo tool?
[15:50] <computa_mike> ogionnj: good idea
[15:50] <bcessa> hi there, just a newbie question, how can I print/echo a '$' character in bash without making it trying to expand a variable?
[15:50] <wo> 我刚想问这个问题
[15:50] <joby> janisozaur what the value what am i supposed to put in there i dont understand
[15:50] <janisozaur> !cn | jhattara
[15:50] <janisozaur> jhattara, sorry, not for you
[15:50] <jht330> Thank
[15:50] <Da_Wrecka> TwoD: Hardinfo? Does that work with Intel chips?
[15:50] <momo_> bcessa: put quotes around it
[15:50] <ogionnj> computa_mike: already installed
[15:50] <momo_> bcessa: single and double quotes work differently
[15:51] <janisozaur> joby, the one you got with "ps ax | grep firefox"
[15:51] <bcessa> like so: '$' (single) or this "$" (double)?
[15:51] <Da_Wrecka> found it n the Xog log Nagilum_ pointed me to. Says 256MB. Can't rule out the possibility that it's all AGP memory, but it seems unlikely that would be insufficient for what I'm trying to do.
[15:51] <Da_Wrecka> *Xorg
[15:51] <LWSDesigns> yea in synaptics adobe flash plugin you can just go to adobe download the .deb file to your hojme dire and run it with dpkg -i flash*.deb
[15:51] <ogionnj> computa_mike: I'm marking ubuntu-netbook and a few others for reinstallation and trying again
[15:51] <momo_> bcessa: I forget, try both and see what happens :)
[15:51] <TwoD> Da_Wrecka: nm, it shows you some hardware stats for things like CPU, network, RAM etc, but I couldn't find framebuffer info in there
[15:52] <Nagilum_> Da_Wrecka: grep VideoRam /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[15:52] <bcessa> got it, is just like this: \$ ;)
[15:52] <LWSDesigns> wierd I have 10.10 installed and never really had any flash issues
[15:52] <momo_> bcessa: great, that works too
[15:52] <wieshka> Hey folks, need some support/help on this problem: http://wieshka.pastebin.com/Fqp0awkU - i am trying to get work Hauppauge USB-live2 on Ubuntu 10.04
[15:52] <joby> janisozaur i have looked but im sorry i dont understand what ur wanting me to do i see all the codes
[15:52] <nikola> i was wrong, its opacify , what martin101 was searching for :(
[15:52] <Da_Wrecka> Nagilum_: Yeah, I found it, thanks.
[15:52] <wieshka> but my vidoe input shows only blue screen
[15:52] <Da_Wrecka> 262144KB, which is 256MB.
[15:53] <Nagilum_> yep
[15:53] <gepatino> gnome-shell: Does anyone knows what the black bar at the bottom is? The one that appears when the pointer is at the lower-right corner?
[15:53] <Da_Wrecka> I suspect that's not dedicated... Know any way to find out for sure?
[15:54] <computa_mike> ogionnj: have you checked your repository locations?
[15:54] <pankaj_sharma> gepatino: those are 4 desktops
[15:54] <CarlosP> any 1 know anything about PXEBoot ThinClients ?
[15:54] <momo_> bcessa: btw, it was single quotes that would have worked too, you can enclose the entire string in single quotes and not worry about backslash escape sequences
[15:54] <BluesKaj> LWSDesigns, make sure you're updated , there was a flash update yesterday and make sure you have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed
[15:54] <ogionnj> computa_mike: No.  But it had no trouble finding packages
[15:54] <gepatino> pankaj_sharma, i'm talking about gnome-shell, not the standard gnome desktop
[15:54] <joby> Java seems to be working but nothing flash related will
[15:54] <Da_Wrecka> Still trying to figure out why I can play video with my external monitor set to 1024x768 but not 1280x1024, anyone have any clues?
[15:54] <bcessa> momo_: thnx ;)
[15:55] <LWSDesigns> Joby the only way i know that might help  to download the package manual here http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/?promoid=BUIGP
[15:55] <momo_> bcessa: np
[15:55] <Nagilum_> Da_Wrecka: sure why not
[15:55] <computa_mike> ogionnj: the reason i was wondering was if you had upgraded from a previous version, and the repo's hadn;
[15:55] <janisozaur> joby, that's because you apparently use gnash, which is open-source flash, but might not work with 100% content out there
[15:55] <Da_Wrecka> Nagilum_: Are you saying you have an idea, or...?
[15:55] <ogionnj> computa_mike: so the repos should say maverick, right?
[15:55] <Nagilum_> Da_Wrecka: System->Preferences->Monitors enable second monitor
[15:55] <janisozaur> joby, but since you're not able to execute the simplest commands I can't help you
[15:55] <TwoD> Da_Wrecka: what happens when you try with the higher resolution?
[15:56] <computa_mike> ogionnj: That's what I'm seeing here...
[15:56] <joby> janisozaur well everything work untill i update to 10.10
[15:56] <Da_Wrecka> TwoD: The movie player shows a black rectangle instead of the video I'm trying to play.
[15:56] <Da_Wrecka> Set the CRT to 1024x768 and the video plays as expected.
[15:57] <Da_Wrecka> The internal monitor stays at 1024x600 regardless
[15:57] <janisozaur> joby, do you even read what I say? it seems that you can't comprehend it, so please stop bugging me. there might be someone else that could help you
[15:57] <computa_mike> ogionnj: This is the version of Unity that I have installed : 0.2.46-0ubuntu5 (unity)
[15:57] <computa_mike> ogionnj: Could the old interface still be installed also?
[15:57] <lousygarua> oh no, just ran `sudo aptitude` from a terminal on 10.10 and it opened an ugly GTK gui! how do i use the beautiful ncurses terminal gui again?
[15:57] <ogionnj> computa_mike: what's in your startup apps?  Is Netbook Launcher in EFL there?  Is there a line for Unity?
[15:58] <pintook> hello is it now ok to upgrade to ubuntu 10.10
[15:58] <Exploiter> pintook, yes why not.. go for it
[15:58] <TANK8465> pintook: your suspend might break, but theres a quick fix for it. pretty much, DO IT
[15:58] <computa_mike> ogionnj: This is going to sound stupid - but how can I find that out?
[15:58] <ogionnj> system->preferences->startup applications
[15:58] <pintook> ok thanks
[15:58] <Da_Wrecka> I didn't like 10.10
[15:59] <ogionnj> computa_mike: system->preferences->startup applications
[15:59] <Da_Wrecka> The Unity interface makes me throw up in my mouth
[15:59] <Da_Wrecka> Desktop 10.10 might be okay, but I really dislike Unity
[15:59] <pankaj_sharma> I AM CURRENTLY upgrading to 10.10..        i hope everthing works
[15:59] <TwoD> Da_Wrecka: sounds like what used to happen on my old Windows installation when I tried to play video on thesecondary monitor, hardware overlay only works on one surface at a time. Maybe something similar here?
[15:59] <Exploiter> pankaj ji dont worry, it wont..!!
[15:59] <joby> Well Since im a newby to commands.. i have updated to 10.10 and my flash will not work, i have updated my flash and it says its install. but when i goto a site i wont work
[16:00] <lousygarua> yay! just ran `sudo aptitude remove aptitude-gtk` and after the removal it uses the original aptitude ncurses gui again.
[16:00] <bergqvistjl> Hi, I have a very weird problem (which has also been happening since 10.04 as well, although I've done a complete re-format and re-install to 10.10 and its still happening)
[16:00] <bergqvistjl> Basically, roughly every other time (or sometimes it does it two times in a row) Ubuntu fails to boot. What happens is it hangs on the boot screen, if I press escape before-hand to view the text info, the last indication I get is that the fsck has run sucessfully on the drive. Any ideas? When i say hang i mean, no HDD activity, keyboard doesnt work, so i have to press the reboot button on the PC, and if i'm lucky the next time the PC usually boots fine as
[16:00] <bergqvistjl> Mobo: Biostar t-power i45
[16:00] <bergqvistjl> CPU Intel Core 2 Duo E8400
[16:00] <bergqvistjl> Graphics: XFX Nvidia GTX 275
[16:00] <FloodBot1> bergqvistjl: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:00] <Nagilum_> Da_Wrecka: hmm, not really and idea, you try to fiddle with xrandr
[16:00] <pintook> eploiter;
[16:00] <arky> arky: in ubuntu do i need to shut down programs before I shut down my computer?
[16:00] <pankaj_sharma> there are no upgrades for this system.. what is this?
[16:00] <undecim> arky: Only if you need to save your work in that program
[16:00] <bergqvistjl> my problem: http://paste.ubuntu.com/512433/
[16:00] <computa_mike> ogionnj: I'm running unity, so it's all a little different
[16:01] <arky> thanks undecim
[16:01] <ogionnj> computa_mike: yeah.  I'm not sure how to find out in unity
[16:01] <bergqvistjl> sorry its a bit long-winded but I would like to get it sorted if possible. Also no-one ever reads my forum posts :(
[16:01] <TwoD> Da_Wrecka: I'm using TwinView on my nVidia card with two screens, it extends the desktop to cover both screens with one surface, all managed by the card meaning hw acceleration is available on both. Would not be the case if I was using truly separate screens.
[16:01] <bergqvistjl> PM me if you have to.
[16:01] <Dulak> arky: no when you shutdown it will send signals to all running programs telling them to shutdown, you might lose unsaved work, but you don't have to stop everything to do a shutdown
[16:01] <janisozaur> bergqvistjl, if your problem doesn't fit here, because floodbot blocks you, it's 99.9% tl;dr
[16:01] <Da_Wrecka> TwinView isn't available to me. My netbook has an Intel video chip
[16:01] <bergqvistjl> yeah ive put it in a pastebin now: http://paste.ubuntu.com/512433/
[16:02] <arky> thanks dulak
[16:02] <janisozaur> bergqvistjl, don't. express it in fewer words
[16:02] <undecim> bergqvistjl: When your computer hangs, does your caps lock flash?
[16:02] <bergqvistjl> no
[16:02] <bergqvistjl> everything is non-responsive or in the state its in when it hanged
[16:02] <pankaj_sharma> why my upgradation getting failed
[16:02] <lahwran> undecim: remind me what it means when it does...
[16:02] <TwoD> Da_Wrecka: I know, that was just me thinking loud about why it works for me. Tried disabling overlays in the player to see if that makes a difference? Will be slower, but might give a clue on what's failing.
[16:02] <bergqvistjl> so if caps-lock was on, it stays on, and vice versa
[16:03] <Misterio> pankaj_sharma: What fail are you getting?
[16:03] <undecim> lahwran: Flashing caps lock means kernel panic
[16:03] <TwoD> undecim: isn't that numlock?
[16:03] <Da_Wrecka> TwoD: Not sure how to do that with Totem
[16:03] <pankaj_sharma> it shows.. upgradation failed for this system
[16:03] <bergqvistjl> even so, nothing flashes, it just stops working and hangs
[16:03] <undecim> TwoD: Is it? It's been forever since I've seen a kernel panic, lol
[16:03] <Exploiter> pankaj ji make sure you software update is not setup to LTS updates only
[16:03] <shane2peru> can someone recommend a better torrent client then Transmission?  transmission seems to kill my router and vonage phone,
[16:03] <joby> Is there anyone who can help me with a flash problem, i have updated to 10.10, and i have updated all the nessacry flash, but flash programs still wont load. it tells me to update your flash. but it shows as the newest
[16:03] <shane2peru> no way to limit the number of connections that I know of.
[16:03] <lahwran> undecim: oh it does? I thought it meant some kind of hardware panic ..
[16:04] <littlebobby> travkin, deinstalling pulseaudio did the trick -- sounds in flash no longer have a delay. interestingly, my multimedia keys don't cause any actions anymore. did you experience the same?
[16:04] <Misterio> pankaj_sharma: Only that? Any text describing error?
[16:04] <undecim> lahwran: idk, it's been a while since I've had either...
[16:04] <goltoof> shane2peru: utorrent
[16:04] <pankaj_sharma> no text
[16:04] <Misterio> pankaj_sharma: Can you take a screenshot please?
[16:04] <shane2peru> goltoof: is that in the repos?  easy to setup and use?  is there gui?
[16:04] <travkin> littlebobby, mhm, nope, but i'm using XFCE (Xubuntu). I think/know it's not related with the pulseaudio
[16:04] <TwoD> undecim: same here, have managed to hang it beyond panic a couple of times, completely irresponsive, but when it did go in to panic mode I think it was numlock. Anyway, I think my issue was with a faulty hdd.
[16:04] <preetam> undecim now the network indicator is not appearing in the system tray even after restart and run nm-applet.
[16:04] <kili2> hi
[16:05] <ogionnj> computa_mike: I have to deal with this later.  Got other things to do.  Thanks for your help
[16:05] <travkin> littlebobby, make sure in Preferences -> Sound are set ALSA device, not PulseAudio
[16:05] <littlebobby> travkin, I've checked that they still register correctly (in the shortcut-settings), but there is just no action to it
[16:05] <bergqvistjl> So has anyone got any ideas? I'm guessing I think its a compatiblity problem with my hardware
[16:05] <Misterio> !screenshot | pankaj_sharma
[16:05] <littlebobby> travkin, yeah thanks
[16:05] <undecim> bergqvistjl: This may be a hardware issue
[16:05] <arky> i just installed ubuntu, but my reading indicates that freebsd is a truer unix and more core oriented. Also the user community has improved. So I'm thinking of switching. Please advise
[16:05] <bergqvistjl> gagh :(
[16:05] <shane2peru> goltoof: thanks for the recommendation I will check it out.
[16:05] <pankaj_sharma> Misterio: wait
[16:05] <preetam> undecim i think some problem with  indicator-network
[16:05] <undecim> arky: Don't switch to freeBSD until you know your way around a *nix system
[16:05] <kili2> i got following problem, i started ubuntu 10.10 (fresh download from ubuntu.com) and booted it (without installing) to save some data from a 10-year old notebook
[16:06] <kili2> now it wants a user :O
[16:06] <TwoD> Da_Wrecka: sorry, don't know that either. Totem doesn't seem to have many options. I mostly use VLC and there it's amongst the output device settings.
[16:06] <joby> Is there anyone who can help me with a flash problem, i have updated to 10.10, and i have updated all the nessacry flash, but flash programs still wont load. it tells me to update your flash. but it shows as the newest
[16:06] <preetam> undecim if i install indicator-network connman automatically get installed.
[16:06] <Da_Wrecka> TwoD: Okay, progress. I went into Multimedia Systems Selector>Video and set the default output plugin to X Window System (No Xv)
[16:06] <raptor_> what about nvidia 96xx drivers on 10.10? does anybody installed it succesfully?
[16:06] <littlebobby> travkin, oh, there's a dialog now (in german) that says that it's waiting for an answer from the audio system :-)
[16:06] <Da_Wrecka> Now the video plays, although it's extremely choppy and not suitable for actual use
[16:06] <undecim> preetam: indicator-network must be connman's frontend...
[16:06] <LWSDesigns> Arky you are correct the community is growning I'm a huge BSD user but its often still to complicated for the newbie or novice user
[16:06] <Poul|Raider> where is the gnum mount file located
[16:06] <shane2peru> goltoof: no utorrent in repo. :(
[16:06] <undecim> preetam: Make sure you have network-manager-gnome installed
[16:06] <Misterio> raptor_: Don't you have the option for installing them?
[16:07] <shane2peru> can someone recommend a good torrent client to replace transmission? in the repos with gui easy to use?
[16:07] <teliti> Hello. I did install texlive and everything works fine, except the "umlaut" of german. I already installed texlive-lang-german. Does anyone has a hint?
[16:07] <LWSDesigns> korrent
[16:07] <raptor_> Misterio: i think about nvidia's official, not from Addiotional Drivers
[16:07] <erUSUL> shane2peru: deluge
[16:07] <TwoD> Da_Wrecka: ah ok. I don't have much experience with Intel cards, never had those problems with the one in my netbook, maybe driver thing?
[16:07] <shane2peru> LWSDesigns: I should have mentioned for Gnome. :)
[16:07] <Da_Wrecka> Thing is, I just don't get why it works fine in 1024x600/1024x768 and not 1024x600/1280x1024
[16:07] <LWSDesigns> yea it works great
[16:07] <joby> i use transmission bitorrent it works great for me
[16:07] <shane2peru> erUSUL: thanks!!!  I will give that one a try
[16:07] <Misterio> shane2peru: KDE applications works fine under GNOME
[16:08] <preetam> undicem i am installing network-manger-gnome
[16:08] <undecim> preetam: Ah, that's it then.
[16:08] <arky> thanks undecim and LSWDesigns
[16:08] <shane2peru> Misterio: yes, I know, but they usually draw in a LOT of deps.
[16:08] <LWSDesigns> I found transmission to be resource hog unlike Ktorrent in gnome
[16:08] <CarlosP> any 1 know anything about PXEBoot ThinClients ?
[16:08] <aeon-ltd> rtorrent!!!
[16:08] <undecim> preetam: Since network manager is running fine, this should let you control it. Just run "nm-applet" from the alt+f2 box to start it then.
[16:08] <kili2> i got following problem, i started ubuntu 10.10 (fresh download from ubuntu.com) and booted it (without installing) to save some data from a 10-year old notebook...  and i dont want to reboot because it needed 30 mins to reboot :(
[16:08] <joby> LWSDesigns i went to the link u provided but it tells me my flash player is newest version
[16:08] <preetam> undicem  the network-manager-gnome is already there
[16:08] <bergqvistjl> i'm going now. So any other ideas/suggestions/info about my problem?
[16:09] <kili2> and now it wants a user
[16:09] <TwoD> aeon-ltd: can the rss auto-download features of rtorrent match those of µTorrent?
[16:09] <Da_Wrecka> guess I'm stuck with 1024x768 for now.
[16:09] <preetam> undicem no use nm-applet does not work
[16:09] <shane2peru> transmission kills my internet because of too many connections, and I can't seem to find a way to lower the connections
[16:09] <shane2peru> I did limit the speed, but that didn't help, totally kills firefox or any browsing
[16:09] <undecim> preetam: Maybe you don't have the notification area in your panel
[16:09] <LWSDesigns> I think its becauase you have installed a 3rd party or Gnome Flash player maybe
[16:10] <kili2> i got following problem, i started ubuntu 10.10 (fresh download from ubuntu.com) and booted it (without installing) to save some data from a 10-year old notebook... and it wants a user...  and i dont want to reboot because it needed 30 mins to reboot :(
[16:10] <preetam> undicem then how to resolve theissue
[16:10] <aeon-ltd> TwoD: suppose not, but then again i don't torrent 'series' of things, so the client fits for the user's needs
[16:10] <TwoD> kili2: please be patient
[16:10] <undecim> preetam: right-click on the panel, click "add to panel" find "notification area" and add it
[16:10] <TwoD> aeon-ltd: ok, thanks.
[16:10] <JWebb22> Hey everyone. I need help.
[16:10] <undecim> preetam: Then nm-applet should show up
[16:10] <karzon_> Does anyone know if I can use a bluetooth headset (kind made for a phone) in ubuntu as a earphone and mic? Specifically "Plantronics Explorer 360"
[16:11] <lahwran> why is my ubuntu install stuck on 89%?
[16:11] <Hukka> Where are the upstart boot scripts, and more specificly where is gdm started?
[16:11] <joby> LWSdesigns i will try and see if that works
[16:11] <lahwran> it's been like that for nearly 30 seconds :(
[16:11] <arky> Do others agree that FreeDSB is harder to use than Ubuntu? I have mediocre computer skills
[16:11] <LWSDesigns> maybe go into synaptics and browse your installed programs
[16:11] <lahwran> Hukka: /etc/init/
[16:11] <Pici> Hukka: upstart stuff in /etc/init/
[16:11] <JWebb22> I'm trying to hook my Xbox 360 to my laptop to get on Live and it's not letting me.
[16:12] <JWebb22> I tried these instructions http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=508145 and it worked yesterday, now it's not :(
[16:12] <TwoD> kili2: what are you trying to do that needs a password?
[16:12] <kili2> TwoD: to login?
[16:12] <kili2> i dont know
[16:12] <Hukka> Hm, thanks. But seems like it's not obvious how gdm starts it's pulseaudio instance. Any hints on finding where that happens?
[16:12] <kili2> normally it just starts
[16:12] <SaRy> lahwran, Maybe you need to wait a while longer for it to finish.
[16:12] <kili2> but now it wants a user...
[16:13] <joby> LWSdesigns: Thank you for that Tid Bit! remvoing the nash and just having Adobe.. it worked thank you
[16:13] <kili2> and i don't know the root password
[16:13] <YeTr2> my executable bits on my /bin/chmod seem to be wrong. howto fix?
[16:13] <undecim> arky: FreeBSD is definitely harder to use than Ubuntu. It doesn't come with a desktop, and isn't specifically designed to be user friendly like Ubuntu is
[16:13] <preetam> undicem the notification area is there since Xchat and battery indicator icon is there.
[16:13] <LWSDesigns> Cheers Joby :)
[16:13] <CarlosP> Q; Im tryn to setup PXE boot for thin clients but cant get more than 3 clients to connect any ideas on what it could be?
[16:13] <Hukka> Also when do the things not under /etc/rc5.d start? I'm trying to make system pulseaudio start earlier than the gdm pulseaudio
[16:13] <undecim> preetam: Those use a different app, the indicator applet

[16:13] <JWebb22> can someone please help me?

[16:14] <SaRy> !Details | JWebb22
[16:14] <tensorpudding> YeTr2: wow, how did that happen?
[16:14] <preetam> undicem notification area is already there
[16:14] <karzon_> Does anyone know if I can use a bluetooth headset (kind made for a phone) in ubuntu as a earphone and mic? Specifically "Plantronics Explorer 360"
[16:14] <tensorpudding> YeTr2: the obvious answer of running chmod won't work...
[16:15] <YeTr2> tensorpudding: dunno. even better thou, when I try to change it, I get 'Operation not permitted'
[16:15] <YeTr2> tensorpudding: using a chmod executable I copied from another system
[16:15] <undecim> preetam: Then run "nm-applet" in a terminal and see if it gives any errors
[16:15] <tensorpudding> YeTr2: Are you doing it as root?
[16:15] <YeTr2> tensorpudding: busybox chmod won't change it either.
