[12:14] <abhinavmodi> so how do I work on that cleanly ? should I put them under /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/interfaces ?
[12:14] <david_> Dr_Willis, OUCH, I don't want too....hehehe
[12:14] <Claw6> is there any way to minimize opengl fullscreen applications like ut2004 ?
[12:14] <Claw6> i want to switch to my desktop when playing
[12:15] <khensthoth> abhinavmodi: I have no experience in that unfortunately.
[12:15] <Dr_Willis> Claw6:  ut2004 actually worked?  :) someone in here earlier was having issues.. then he got mad and left.
[12:15] <Dr_Willis> iKernel:  did you ever get Ut2004 working?
[12:15] <abhinavmodi> khensthoth: np .. will figure it out. opendns rocks :)
[12:15] <Claw6> Dr_Willis, it works for me yes
[12:15] <Rodensky> david_, now even linux supports that, yet it has no support for defrags like windows does and has no installing interface with at least 5 dialogs like windows does!!
[12:15] <Claw6> no problem
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> Claw6:  :)  where were you about 2 hrs ago. heh.
[12:16] <Rodensky> this is a low tech os... :P
[12:16] <david_> Dr_Willis, I think I get like 4 or 5 reinstalls with Vista before I have to buy another copy....YAY!!!!!
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> david_:  wee!  Call that support #  :)
[12:16] <david_> Rodensky, I know, linux is behind the 8 ball..........LOL
[12:16] <freaky[t]> i want windows 7 :/
[12:16] <freaky[t]> but have no money
[12:17] <Dr_Willis> freaky[t]:  wait for windows9
[12:17] <Claw6> Dr_Willis, who asked for ut2k4 ? i cant explain how it will work
[12:17] <paschu> ubuntu crashes suddenly what to do?
[12:17] <Dr_Willis> Claw6:  i forget the name. its in the logs.. but he got all upset at us and left.   I was think ing it might of been you - under a different nick.
[12:17] <courpse> Get insurance.
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> Claw6:  iKernel  was going to try to get it going.. so he may have it working now and is playing and ignoring us. :)
[12:18] <paschu> ubuntu crashes suddenly what to do???
[12:18] <khensthoth> paschu: Restart?
[12:19] <Claw6> :D
[12:19] <david_> Dr_Willis, yeah, if I wanna move my copy to another computer (don't know why I would ever wanna do something stupid like that) gotta call irans hotline and ask Bob's permission...LOL
[12:19] <paschu> khensthoth: but i want that ubuntu doesnt crashes anymore
[12:19] <Claw6> when does it crash paschu
[12:19] <khensthoth> paschu: Where/when does it crash, and/or what did you do before it craches?
[12:20] <Claw6> some for information would be great
[12:20] <Claw6> *more
[12:20] <david_> freaky[t], windows7???
[12:20] <paschu> khensthoth: It crashes when i have 4 or more tabs in firefox. Im loadin a torrent an im online in my IM
[12:20] <freaky[t]> yes
[12:20] <Claw6> what is windows?
[12:20] <freaky[t]> it's a very popular OS
[12:20] <freaky[t]> :P
[12:20] <Claw6> claw@claw-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install windows7
[12:21] <david_> freaky[t], where do you get "windows"
[12:21] <freaky[t]> Claw6, it's not in the repos u have to buy it
[12:21] <khensthoth> paschu: So how does it "crash"? Does it hang?
[12:21] <mikobuntu_> sudo apt-get windows off my desktop
[12:21] <Claw6> wtf? buy an O.S?
[12:21] <david_> mikobuntu_, LOL!!!!!
[12:21] <freaky[t]> david_, u can buy it on amazon eg.
[12:21] <Rodensky> Claw6 - you can pay for what linux users get for free, isn't it great???
[12:21] <Claw6> Rodensky, sounds greate
[12:21] <freaky[t]> i cant play aion nor ut3 on linux :(
[12:22] <Claw6> ut3 is developed under unix
[12:22] <Claw6> so it will work
[12:22] <freaky[t]> lol no
[12:22] <freaky[t]> they still working on a linux version
[12:22] <freaky[t]> i just checked
[12:23] <Claw6> k mac version is in dev too
[12:23] <freaky[t]> yes
[12:23] <freaky[t]> but they released ut3 a year ago or so
[12:24] <Claw6> epic became a big fail... ut3 even just sucks
[12:28] <Dr_Willis> freaky[t]:  it may of been ut2004 that guy was trying to get working.
[12:28] <bokchoi> why doesn't ubuntu include an ident daemon by default?
[12:28] <Dr_Willis> bokchoi:  why should it? identd is rarely needed these days
[12:28] <freaky[t]> Dr_Willis, yes but i got ut3 :P
[12:28] <Dr_Willis> services you dont need running = security risks
[12:29] <TuTUXG> Dr_Willis: say that to ms
[12:29] <TuTUXG> lol
[12:29] <leo__> \j
[12:29] <bokchoi> Dr_Willis: um, isn't it still used on IRC which we are all on right now??
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> TuTUXG:   MS the same company that can brick your Xbox360 :)
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> bokchoi:  its not required on most irc server/networks.
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> bokchoi:  some can use it - if it runs/exists.. but most dont require it.
[12:30] <bokchoi> not required!?
[12:30] <bokchoi> what in the world?!?!!!?!?!
[12:30] <bokchoi> FFFFFFFFFUUUUUU--
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> bokchoi:  I dont have it and im here....
[12:30] <bokchoi> word
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> Hmmm.. that was weird....

[12:39] <binMonkey> have any of you got java to work on google-chrome, not chromium?
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> got a url to test binMonkey ?
[12:40] <binMonkey> Dr_Willis: i always use time.gov.
[12:40]  * ubiquitous1980 says anyone got a URL for creating liveUSBs from the command line?
[12:40] <binMonkey> Dr_Willis: i got java working in chromium, but not in google-chrome.
[12:40] <Dr_Willis> time.gov works for me under google-chrome
[12:41] <binMonkey> Dr_Willis: are you using the dev channel version?
[12:41] <Dr_Willis> Not sure.  let me checkthe repo lists

[12:48] <BluShift1> How do I set up masquerading? I have my netbook connected to my modem wirelessly, and connected to a wired router. That router is then connected to the machine I am trying to forward the connection to. I have enabled masquerading for eth0 in the "Firewall" config. What am I missing?
[12:48] <BluShift1> ANd yes, this is on Fedora. They aren't feeling very helpful, though :(
[12:48] <Boohbah> BluShift1: your wired router is running fedora?
[12:49] <BluShift1> Boohbah: No, the netbook I;m using to forward the connection is using Fedora
[12:49] <Boohbah> BluShift1: the netbook is connected to the modem? not the router?
[12:49] <Boohbah> BluShift1: what kind of modem?
[12:50] <BluShift1> Well, we have ou cable terminate in a modem, and that modem connects to a wireless router.
[12:50] <Boohbah> BluShift1: why do you need the netbook to masquerade if you already have a NAT router in front of it?
[12:50] <CrAzE124> how do i copy the /var/cache/apt/archive folder to my flash drive? It says this: Error creating directory: Read-only file system
[12:51] <CrAzE124> when I try to do it in the gui
[12:51] <BluShift1> Boohbah: Becuase I have a desktop that does not have a wireless card; so I need to forward the connection to my desktop.
[12:51] <Boohbah> CrAzE124: you may have to 'sudo cp -a /var/cache/apt/archive /media/usb' as root
[12:52] <Boohbah> BluShift1: the easiest solution is to get a wireless card for the desktop
[12:52] <CrAzE124> Boohbah: Thanks let me try that.
[12:52] <BluShift1> Boohbah: I am fully aware. My understanding is that it's pretty straight forward to do in Linux
[12:54] <Boohbah> BluShift1: i am not familiar with fedora but you may want to try http://www.shorewall.net/
[12:54] <CrAzE124> Boohbah: Still same message in terminal.

[13:24] <monga> when will the next release beta be out for ubuntu?
[13:25] <TLF> hello
[13:25] <TLF> I've installed ubuntustudio package and the look & feel of my desktop changed, how can I recover ubuntu's default look ?
[13:26] <PFA> empathy acts weird when i try to change my status. if i click "hidden" it changes to "busy" instead, and i have to click it twice to get it to change to "hidden". if i choose "hidden" from the indicator applet then it goes to busy and never changes to hidden. can anyone help?
[13:26] <miromanyth> TLF: Go to System->Preferences->Appearance
[13:26] <TLF> miromanyth: and what theme shall I choose?
[13:26] <miromanyth> TLF: Well you have many choices. I think Human is the Ubuntu default.
[13:26] <PFA> also it keeps changing me back to "busy" for no good reason
[13:27] <c3l> TLF, ye, change the theme to human or w/e is default
[13:27] <monga> where can i get the beta release of the next ubuntu?
[13:27] <khensthoth> monga: It isn't out yet
[13:27] <c3l> PFA, empathy is kind of crap
[13:28] <Warp4> when it becomes available, from their website
[13:28] <PFA> c3l, i have noticed
[13:28] <monga> khensthoth do u know when it will be out?
[13:28] <PFA> c3l, but i like the way it integrates and idk if pidgin does that...?
[13:28] <c3l> PFA, if you are an old msn user, you will feel at home with emesene
[13:28] <khensthoth> monga: Probably around March next year
[13:28] <livingdaylight_> can you tell me where the background /wallpapers are kept?
[13:28] <PFA> c3l, i hate the official MSN client. i like the pidgin/empathy style of interface much better. and i use AIM as well.
[13:29] <c3l> PFA, oh you want the integration. hm well there should be some package to allow pidgin to interact with gnome like empathy does
[13:30] <PFA> does anyone know what it is, though? >>
[13:30] <c3l> PFA, if you still want empathy you can change the way it changes your status automatically
[13:30] <PFA> c3l, how?
[13:30] <livingdaylight_> please tell me
[13:31] <PFA> to be honest i'd rather use pidgin with integration if it exists. empathy seems, although pleasantly simple, very experimental and buggy.
[13:31] <c3l> PFA, no idea, i've removed it =)
[13:31] <PFA> darn
[13:31] <c3l> get pidgin then, is the integration really nessesary=
[13:31] <PFA> not *necessary*, but i like it >>
[13:32] <livingdaylight_> please

[13:32] <Hans_Henrik> i have way worse flash-performace on Ubuntu than XP (i can have many youtube-videos on at once without the slightest lag in XP, in ubuntu i cant even have 3 windows open, many flash-games lag in ubuntu, not in XP) :( what should i do?
[13:33] <harish> add entry manually of sabayon 5 in karmic??
[13:33] <GNUtoo> hi, is it easy to remaster a livecd to include ssh or netcat or something like this....it's for a laptop with nvidia card and broken screen
[13:33] <khensthoth> livingdaylight_: /usr/share/backgrounds
[13:33] <c3l> Hans_Henrik, my flashvideos are also slower than in xp.. idk why
[13:33] <livingdaylight_> khensthoth, dank schoen
[13:33] <GNUtoo> Hans_Henrik, did you try if gnash was faster?
[13:33] <LjL> !customlivecd | GNUtoo
[13:33] <GNUtoo> LjL, thanks
[13:33] <Hans_Henrik> GNUtoo: nope, how can i switch?
[13:33] <blip-> hi,  i'm installing 64-bit 9.10 alongside windows.  Windows is already using 3 ntfs partitions.... so all my linux partitions will have to be logical.... is that ok ?    thanks
[13:34] <GNUtoo> Hans_Henrik, install gnash and use that command: update-alternatives --config xulrunner-addons-flashplugin
[13:34] <c3l> blip-, yes, linux can run from a logical partition
[13:34] <GNUtoo> Hans_Henrik, to swtch between both
[13:34] <c3l> blip-, if ubuntu is evil i dont know
[13:34] <blip-> c3l, I know it can, I meant to ask if there's any downside ?
[13:35] <blip-> and as a side question, would you recommend going with ext4 just yet ?   I'm going for stability here
[13:35] <alkisg> I ssh'ed to my server, tried to copy a big file to another server via nfs, and then my ssh connection broke. Now when I log on I can see the copy process but I can't kill it, not even with kill -9. I can't even reboot the server remotely. Any ideas?
[13:35] <GNUtoo> Hans_Henrik, gnash is less compatible with ultra-recent flash such as flash10 tough
[13:35] <orochi> is there a way to turn the system beep back on in 9.10?
[13:35] <_Trullo> hmm.. had an nvidia upgrade today, now my nvidiadrivers are fucked up.. something with kernel, how do I fix this?
[13:36] <_Trullo> just uninstall and install again?
[13:36] <harish> help??
[13:36] <c3l> blip-, afaik there is no downside, and go for ext3 if you want stability, unless you are handling files above like 20gig alot
[13:36] <erUSUL> _Trullo: how did you installed your graphic drivers ?
[13:36] <blip-> c3l, ok thanks
[13:36] <jason> I can connect to my 3g mobile usb in gnome with ease but have never been able to do this in KDE im using ubuntu 9.04 anyone know how? thx
[13:37] <khensthoth> orochi: If i am not mistaken, put a # in front of the line "blacklist pcspkr" in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
[13:38] <moDumass> um, im trying to dload a torrent to one of my hdds but the torrent has stopped saying no space on device, but i have like 50gigs free on that hdd
[13:39] <_Trullo> erUSUL, just sudo apt-get update
[13:39] <LjL> _Trullo: "sudo apt-get update" doesn't install anything.
[13:39] <benc1> I'm running a script that needs the HOME to be defined
[13:39] <orochi> hmmm commented that out and still no beep
[13:39] <benc1> what do I do if I need to run the script as a user with no home?
[13:39] <orochi> do i need to restart?
[13:40] <moDumass> last upgrade/update of ubuntu releases created a 12gig mount -now im 12 gigs short on my machine, how do i assimilate those 12 gigs back into my machine
[13:40] <erUSUL> _Trullo: that's the kernel update. But how you installed the nvidia drivers ? System>Admin>Hard Driveres? envyng ? the *.run from nvidia ?
[13:40] <_Trullo> system/admin
[13:41] <_Trullo> I guess I have to reinstall the drivers now
[13:42] <LjL> benc1: perhaps it's worth also asking in #bash
[13:43] <gdk> i downloaded wine and i installed fl studio, but sound isn't wokring

[13:47] <livingdaylight_> i added wallpager.jpg to /usr/share/backgrounds but when i go to Appearance > background i do not see it ?
[13:48] <orochi> unmuted everything on alsamixer, no system beep.
[13:48] <zhxk`> my throat becomes itch
[13:48] <orochi> it was working fine until i did a clean install of 9.10
[13:48] <LjL> !ot | zhxk`
[13:48] <orochi> i had 8.04 before
[13:48] <orochi> and i don't think pc beep was even in alsamixer
[13:48] <zhxk`> i cant upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10
[13:49] <BlouBlou> zhxk`: what problem have you got?
[13:49] <Infin1ty> orochi, i think it's simply disabled by default in the kernel
[13:49] <orochi> is there a way to change that?
[13:49] <BlouBlou> zhxk`: does ubuntu gives you any error? it crashes...?
[13:49] <orochi> compile a new kernel?
[13:50] <orochi> err.  is there a way to change that without compiling a new kernel that is.
[13:50] <meatbun> is there a nice gui syslog for ubuntu?
[13:50] <orochi> or updating
[13:51] <Infin1ty> orochi, hmm it's weird, because if i look now at the kernel config, it's there, i do know that ever since the kernel upgrade it's gone
[13:51] <meatbun> i am going to install ubuntu as a virtual machine, should i get the 32bit or 64 bit version of buntu?
[13:51] <BlouBlou> meatbun: it's the same
[13:51] <kostkon> orochi, the module is blacklisted
[13:52] <zhxk`> BlouBlou:it give one a link
[13:52] <kostkon> orochi, and system sounds now play using libcanbera through pulse
[13:52] <meatbun> BlouBlou, i have a 64bit cpu as host
[13:52] <BlouBlou> meatbun: in this case install ubuntu 64bits version
[13:52] <kostkon> orochi, the pcskr module i think it's called like that
[13:53] <orochi> hmm ok.  i commented it out of blacklist.conf .  should it be working?
[13:53] <orochi> it's not
[13:54] <freinhard> hi! has anyone done a custom aspell word list that consists of more than plain words? the automatic generated .aspell.*.pws file consists of just words and has no information how these words can be modified
[13:55] <kostkon> orochi, did you reboot or did you load it, modprobe pcskr
[13:55] <khensthoth> orochi: http://andrewgee.org/blog/2009/11/14/pc-speaker-karmic/
[13:55] <meatbun> BlouBlou, yeah.. this is my first 64 bit cpu machine... i just bought 1 month ago
[13:55] <livingdaylight_> please help me
[13:55] <BlouBlou> meatbun: install 64bits version, it will works fine :)

[13:58] <cew_basket> woiiiiiiiiiii
[13:58] <orochi> got it working!! thanks so much!
[13:58] <egle> hello, how to make firefox use system fonts
[13:58] <BlouBlou> benc1: user info is in home directory, so no, it's not possible
[13:59] <BlouBlou> benc1: however you can create his home directory in different hdd/partition
[13:59] <benc1> BlouBlou: I thought that the user running a web server for example doesn't have a home dir. I must be wrong. thanks
[14:00] <BlouBlou> benc1: np
[14:00] <khensthoth> livingdaylight_: Drag the photo you added into /usr/share/backgrounds into the Appearance Preference under Background. Does that work?
[14:00] <livingdaylight_> khensthoth, why do the added walpapers in /usr/share/backgrounds not show up in the Appearances gui?
[14:00] <Shibby|Sad|> Hello!  My ubuntu keeps freezing (its a poor pc)  I was wondering, what log file would best give me information to hunting down the problem
[14:00] <udin> ubuntu 9.10
[14:00] <udin> bad than ever
[14:00] <besnard> salut
[14:02] <khensthoth> livingdaylight_: I think that's just the way it's set up. It doesn't scan that particular folder for new wallpaper.
[14:02] <livingdaylight_> khensthoth, so dropping/adding .jpg's to /usr/share/backgrounds doesn't do anything?
[14:02] <Jamiell> hi guys I just updated to ubuntu 9.10 but my software center is not working
[14:03] <livingdaylight_> Jamiell, you mean upgraded?
[14:03] <Warp4> Jamiell could you be more specific?  such as error nessages, etc?
[14:03] <khensthoth> livingdaylight_: It just adds to that directory, but information regarding the background is stored in an xml file in .gnome2 in your home directory.
[14:04] <livingdaylight_> khamael, so, i need to go to .gnome2 and drag it into appearance>background?
[14:05] <_Trullo> http://pastebin.com/m483cf488 I'm getting that error..
[14:05] <khensthoth> livingdaylight_: Nope, just drag whatever pictures you want to add to the collection to Appearance > Background. The xml file is automatically updated when you do that.
[14:06] <khensthoth> livingdaylight_: Hold on if you want Ubuntu to automatically scan a folder for wallpaper. I am searching on the forum.
[14:07] <livingdaylight_> khensthoth, i wonder whether i can drag 'em from usr/share/backgrounds or whether i'll encounter permmission issues that way. Because as you know if i drag the wallpaper.jpg from Desktop to Appearance>Backround gui it will add it but the moment i delete the original from Desktop it will disappear in the Appearnce
[14:07] <riegersn> why has this intel graphics issue with jaunty and karmic gone on so long? is there any solution currently? can i use karmic but roll back to a driver from pre jaunty? this is a production laptop and of no use to me.
[14:07] <wknight8111> I'm having some pretty serious stability issues in Karmic, and I'm not sure how to go about diagnosing or even reporting the problems
[14:07] <jrib> riegersn: the answer to your first question is probably best found in the bug report
[14:08] <Jamiell> Sorry. I get no error messages but it does not start when I click on it
[14:08] <livingdaylight_> khensthoth, ok, i'm dragging the wallpaper.jpg's from usr/share/backgrounds as you suggest into the Appearnces gui and it works
[14:09] <wknight8111> apport for instance wants a package name, and I'm not sure what package "my system freezes" is under
[14:09] <khensthoth> livingdaylight_: Yup, I just tried it and it works as well.
[14:10] <dupondje> When I do shift + number I get the correct number (azerty keyboard). But when I press shift lock and then type the numbers, I get other chars ... any idea how to solve that ?
[14:10] <livingdaylight_> khensthoth, yup that works, so i'm satisfied with that. although ideally, and logically, adding wallpager.jpg's into the usr/share/background folder should show up in Appearnces automatically after a rescan
[14:10] <khensthoth> livingdaylight_: I knot what you mean.
[14:10] <Jamiell> This what I get when i try to run it in the terminal. When I click on it, it begins but exits without any message.

[14:11] <Symmetria> anyone here got any hints on how I can diagnose why the hell my raid0 software array is writing soooooo slowly
[14:11] <livingdaylight_> khensthoth, thx for the help
[14:11] <Symmetria> its maxing out at like 150 - 180 mbit/second
[14:12] <kuttans> hello everybody anyone have idea about the missing x11 folder in my /etc folder
[14:12] <khensthoth> livingdaylight_: I would suggest you create a .wallpaper directory in your home folder and use that to build up your wallpaper though. I am not sure but when Ubuntu updates it *might* delete those that you have added. As /usr/share/background is in the root directory, and you aren't really supposed to mess with it.
[14:12] <kuttans> im not having the folder in /etc and i want to configure my X to use compiz
[14:12] <Micheil> is there a maximum amount of swap space one can assign when installing karmic?
[14:13] <livingdaylight_> khensthoth, even if i've sudo cp 'd them?
[14:13] <handjob> Hi. Is there anybody who uses "alpine" email client?
[14:13] <erUSUL> Micheil: no
[14:13] <khensthoth> livingdaylight_: I really have no idea if Ubuntu will delete it. Most likely it wouldn't.
[14:13] <livingdaylight_> but, ok, i'll create a .wallpaper folder... but i thought usr/share/backgrounds was the designated folder for backgrounds rather than createing another one
[14:14] <seberg> if I did apt-get source on a package and modify the code a bit, is some simple way I can build a package from that to install it instead of the normal one?
[14:14] <Micheil> livingdaylight_: more then likely, the other alternative could be storing them in say, /opt/wallpapers/ and then symlinking that into /usr/share/background/
[14:14] <livingdaylight_> khensthoth, don't see why. just as i've added fonts to /usr/share/fonts
[14:14] <Micheil> erUSUL: okay.. is there a maximum that ubuntu will use?
[14:15] <livingdaylight_> should we not be adding to already existing folders that are designated to backgrounds and fonts etc? in root or creating separate ones?
[14:15] <wknight8111> anybody able to at least point me in the right direction to help get my problems solved/reported?
[14:15] <erUSUL> Micheil: well in theory no; but you will tired of waiting for linux to recover from a swap storm
[14:15] <Micheil> livingdaylight_: well, really you could put the wallpapers in /usr/share/backgrounds, just like fonts, although, if you ever need to reinstall, you need to remember where those files are, and make sure you don't forghet them
[14:15] <fx3> whats your question wknight8111 ?
[14:15] <Micheil> erUSUL: swap storm?
[14:15] <wknight8111> fx3: major stability problems in karmic. Freezing, hanging, won't boot sometimes, etc
[14:16] <livingdaylight_> Micheil, that's a good point
[14:16] <wknight8111> fx3: Not able to really even report it because I don't know what package it's associated with, and everybody wants to know package
[14:16] <fx3> wknight8111, any messages ? if you get the system to boot, run dmesg
[14:17] <wknight8111> fx3: yes, lots of stuff appears there
[14:17] <fx3> wknight8111, boot in single user mode, check the logs of package installation, dpkg i think, and see whats wrong
[14:17] <Jamiell> Hi After I upgraded to ubuntu 9.10 I decided to try the new software center but whenever I click on it, the mouse egins to show loading then it exits before the program sta. If I try to use the terminal, I get this:

[14:17] <AceKing> Can someone tell me what lines to comment out in my sources list? I put the error and the sources list in paste bin http://paste.ubuntu.com/324381/
[14:17] <Micheil> erUSUL: I currently have 3.8GiB as swap on hardy (8.10?) and that's fine on a slow disk, but I'm thinking of getting a faster disk, and installing karmic on that, if I went with a faster disk, and assigned say 10GiB of swap, would that have any impact on performance?
[14:17] <fx3> wknight8111, you might find that it might be a hardware issue
[14:17] <wknight8111> fx3: okay, how do I get the dpkg logs?
[14:17] <erUSUL> Micheil: hd are way slower then ram if linux starts using to much swap it enters a pathological state and can take a lot of time to recover
[14:17] <kuttans> hello everybody, can anyone throw some light on where the x11 folder gone from my /etc
[14:18] <xpo0f> hi people
[14:18] <erUSUL> Micheil: do not think so. if you use swap you kill you performance
[14:18] <kuttans> when googled i came across missing /etc/x11/xorg.conf but no one reported x11 folder as missing
[14:18] <fx3> wknight8111, everything is in /var/log/
[14:18] <Jamiell> http://paste.ubuntu.com/324382/
[14:18] <Jamiell> Is this how I am suppose to do this
[14:18] <Micheil> erUSUL: okay.. this is slightly confusing, but any how.. what's the recommended amount of swap? I always assumed more meant better performance.
[14:19] <Jamiell> http://paste.ubuntu.com/324382/  This is my problem
[14:19] <kuttans> The problem is : even after dropping all the compiz packages i was missing my window titles,
[14:19] <erUSUL> Micheil: not at all. if you plan to hibernate to disk you need RAM == swap if you plannot to with $ GiB of memory 1 GiB o swap or so is fine
[14:19] <LjL> Jamiell: remove the line that says « deb http://archive.ubuntu.com karmic main universe »
[14:20] <LjL> Jamiell: it's line 66 in your paste. it's wrong.
[14:20] <Micheil> erUSUL: okay.. 2GiB of memory + 5 GiB of swap on a 10,000rpm disk should be pretty fast, right?
[14:20] <fx3> Micheil, you dont need 5GB of swap, it will never get used.
[14:20] <AceKing> LjL, was that meant for me?
[14:21] <LjL> AceKing: oh, yes it was
[14:21] <Micheil> fx3: hmm?
[14:21] <AceKing> LjL, thank you! and that will take care of both the error lines?
[14:21] <erUSUL> Micheil: swap space does not impact performance in any way (only negatively when your systems has to use and the performance hit is quite noticiable)
[14:21] <kuttans> seems no body is having the problem like i have
[14:21] <LjL> AceKing: yes, it should
[14:21] <AceKing> LjL, Thanks for your help!
[14:21] <Jamiell> LjL: I don't see that line. How do I run the software center from the terminal?
[14:21] <kuttans> if anyone there who is having problem like this pls get in touch
[14:22] <Micheil> oh, so I'm better off getting more memory, rather then adding more swap space?
[14:22] <wknight8111> kern.log contains several entries for "BUG: scheduling while atomic: Xorg/1409/0x10000001"
[14:23] <LjL> Jamiell: i was actually responding to AceKing, and mixed you up. i don't know what your problem might be due to...
[14:23] <Jamiell> LjL: Thanks for the answering though
[14:24] <lh> 这里有中文么？？
[14:24] <wknight8111> and lots of "Corrupted low memory..." entries
[14:24] <lh> 这里有中文么？？
[14:24] <issyl0> It works, but several problems on boot.. one, it loads the xubuntu logo when it's booting up, two, it says kubuntu on login screen and three it says xubuntu on the extra bit of loading it does after that
[14:24] <issyl0> Karmic, that is
[14:24] <issyl0> But it still says in the 'about ubuntu' bit that it is Ubuntu 9.10

[14:26] <fx3> does anyone know how a unix daemon should behave when started with an init.d script? mine needs to generate D-H exchange, so it takes some time. Should i block the terminal and let it compute silently (then it will slow down the boot) or should i daemonize it straight away and fail silently later?
[14:26] <BA^> i just installed karmic on my laptop and my hdd light stays on almost constantly. anything i can do? how can i see cpu and ram stats?

[14:28] <Pax-Man> Hi, I'm trying to install a SmartBoard software on my x86_64 but it only support x86. I've found out that this shouldn't give the problem if I use "dpkg -i --force-architecture" command. But I can't use this command because its not a .deb file instead it's called .package. What can I do?
[14:28] <Daremonai> hello... I just bought a 2 TB HD, and I am just wondering how i should format it, and to what format? ext3 or ext4?
[14:29] <oCean_> Jamiell: cause of your problem might be in LANG setting
[14:29] <oCean_> Jamiell: your paste says: "ValueError: unknown locale: en_AG"
[14:29] <CShadowRun> Daremonai: i vote ext4
[14:29] <CShadowRun> My entire system runs ext4, 1TB + 2x500GB + 2x 250GB
[14:30] <gord> Daremonai: you can partition it however you want, but ext3 and ext4 are both nice and standard, ext4 has some extra fun bits that are a little quicker
[14:30] <Daremonai> well i have 6 HDs other than that one.. they're all in ext3 format
[14:30] <Daremonai> don't feel like formatting the others to ext4... so i was wondering if i should put that as ext3 or 4...
[14:31] <BA^> wow... 83% cpu and only 7532k mem free :( anything to improve that? go with different distro?
[14:31] <epinky> Daremonai: http://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Frequently_Asked_Questions#What_are_the_key_differences_between_ext3_and_ext4.3F
[14:31] <gord> Daremonai: you don't have to format the others to ext4, you can leave them as ext3
[14:32] <kindlychung> I have a file list in a txt file, and I want to mv all the files listed on the txt file, what should i do?
[14:32] <Daremonai> gord, yeah.. i didn't move them to ext4 nor am i planning to do so... guess i'll make that one ext4.
[14:32] <BluesKaj> Howdy
[14:32] <|_\> How can I start an application minimized under gnome?
[14:32] <Daremonai> is ext4 stable now that it comes with 9.10?
[14:33] <CShadowRun> Daremonai yes ext4 is stable
[14:33] <Daremonai> i was gonna put one of my disks before that one to ext4 but it was facing issues
[14:33] <epinky> BA^: your machine meet minimun requirements?, you can also try Lubuntu https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu
[14:33] <Daremonai> alright..
[14:33] <Daremonai> is there a tutorial to do it with gparted or should i just do it from the cmd line?
[14:34] <wiehan> hi, I am using ubuntu 9.10, I have seperate hard drive on which I made a 20gb partition and installed the new opensuse 11.2 - it messed up my grub (I know what I did wrong, and will learn from my mistake), but I need to know how to restore grub to get my ubuntu install to boot again
[14:34] <Jamiell> Anyone know where I can find any good programming tutorials whether is be c,c++,java or anything of the sort?
[14:34] <BA^> epinky: not sure what min requirements are... how do i see my cpu and ram amounts?
[14:34] <|_\> Is the ntfs driver bundled with Ubuntu 8.04 sufficiently stable and reliable to do operations on critical data?
[14:34] <CShadowRun> Daremonai: whatever you prefer
[14:34] <CShadowRun> |_\ it should be, but you should have backups of data like that in any case
[14:34] <CShadowRun> Even windows messes up sometimes
[14:34] <BA^> epinky, well... top shows me memory... wow only 256 :(
[14:34] <PFA> i just gotta say, i stopped using ubuntu with Elky because it was just too bloated, and now i'm back with Karmic and i'm very impressed
[14:35] <Daremonai> btw.. I have a PCI to SATA controller, does anyone know if this is good or bad?
[14:35] <BA^> that could be a problem
[14:35] <|_\> CShadowRun: thanks
[14:35] <wiehan> How do I fix grub if I can't even get into ubuntu?
[14:35] <PFA> maybe 2015 will be the year of the linux desktop :P
[14:35] <CShadowRun> wiehan livecd
[14:35] <wiehan> CShadowRun: ok, then what do I type/do?
[14:35] <oCean_> PFA: Elky? Edgy?
[14:36] <CShadowRun> wiehan what did you do, install windows over the top of grub?
[14:36] <PFA> oCean_, haha, yes, sorry. elky is an op around here... i got confused

[14:36] <ganymede> hi, i have 10 ubuntu machines that are part of a compute cluster and i'd like a way to monitor them. i see there are monitoring packaging like cacti, but cacti seemed too heavyweight for me. i don't need graphs of CPU usage over time, but i would like to be able to check cpu usage and free memory on all of this at this instant to find out which node has free cores for a new process. does anyone have a recommendation?
[14:37] <CShadowRun> wiehan: i'm not really sure tbh, maybe this guide will help. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[14:37] <CShadowRun> ganymede: python + /proc?
[14:37] <Jamiell> does anyone know of any good c,c++, java or programming tutroials
[14:37] <BA^> epinky: thanks. i'm pretty sure it's a 1ghz but looks like i'm lacking in the mem dept
[14:38] <Sj4lut> I forgot to create bootboster partition. Now... My first partition is used for a swap... Is it possible to "unmount" swap partition and edit it?
[14:38] <ganymede> CShadowRun, as in, just write one up a script really quickly?
[14:38] <joe_Loftus> Hi...is any one else having issues drawing with either a mouse or a graphics tablet in 9.10?  The same hardware worked fine in 9.04.
[14:38] <CShadowRun> ganymede: yea, isn't that hard to pull up CPU stats from /proc
[14:38] <Sj4lut> I forgot to create bootboster partition. Now... My first partition is used for a swap... Is it possible to "unmount" swap partition and edit it? While I'm in ubuntu?
[14:38] <|_\> Nobody knows how to start an application minimized? I wish to have the console minimized every time I log on.
[14:38] <CShadowRun> ganymede: i can chuck you some example code if you like i've done it in python
[14:38] <ganymede> CShadowRun, sorry, i forgot to mention that i guess i'd like a web interface so my users can know which node has free cores
[14:38] <CShadowRun> ganymede: ah
[14:39] <CShadowRun> ganymede: python+django+/proc? ;)
[14:39] <CShadowRun> (Yes, i'm terrible)
[14:39] <ganymede> CShadowRun, i was actually thinking about putting something together with daemons in perl that are webservers that just serve the output of ps aux and free -m and then a webserver reads throse from each node and prints it out
[14:39] <epinky> Sj4lut: you'll have to edit /etc/fstab
[14:39] <blip-> hi, I just installed ubuntu 9.10 64bit.... when I booted my desktop... there is a little green box in the corner of the screen that says "Unsupported Hardware"... it has the AMD logo.... the funny thing is I have an Intel CPU not AMD.     on the other hard the restricted fglrx drivers for my ATI 5870 don't get enabled even when I "Activate" it...
[14:39] <BA^> if i have compiz installed can that slow things down?
[14:40] <ganymede> CShadowRun, but it'd be nice if they could use a well-documented system for after i leave this job and they get a new admin
[14:40] <Sj4lut> epinky: can you guide me please?
[14:40] <oCean_> ganymede: maybe you'd like "sar" (from sysstat packagE)
[14:40] <leagris> Jamiell: I'd like to find good c,c++, java tutorial especially dedicated to the linux environment as well. Don't know where.
[14:40] <CShadowRun> ganymede: yea, well i don't know of anything like that, good luck finding it though :)
[14:40] <epinky> Sj4lut: do you feel confortable with command line?
[14:40] <Davidov> hi to all
[14:40] <Sj4lut> epinky: yes
[14:40] <Sj4lut> epinky: I think so
[14:41] <Jamiell> leagris: Yea same here
[14:41] <Sj4lut> epinky: why do you ask?
[14:41] <Davidov> I have a simply question: how to run a check disk in ubuntu ? is in there a command ?
[14:41] <LjL> !fsck | Davidov
[14:41] <epinky> Sj4lut: you've already modified with fdisk?
[14:42] <scunizi> blip-: then it looks like it's your video card it's complaining about.  ATI is a b***h to get working sometimes..
[14:42] <Sj4lut> epinky: no I just installed ubuntu
[14:42] <Davidov> ok tnx
[14:42] <ganymede> oCean_, thanks, i'll look into it a little bit to see if i can get it to monitor all the nodes from one place
[14:42] <Sj4lut> epinky: or would it be faster if I reinstall it :D after 5mins :D
[14:42] <acovrig> how-to adjust firewall?
[14:43] <blip-> scunizi, yeah that's why I wanted a nvidia... but compared to the GTX295, the 5870 is just so much better designed and cheaper.
[14:43] <epinky> Sj4lut: a fresh-install is always better :)
[14:43] <BA^> !ufw
[14:43] <oCean_> ganymede: hm, in that case you would need access to /proc on all systems...
[14:44] <scunizi> blip-: but tough to get working.. check the forums at www.ubuntuforums.org and www.google.com/linux .. just reference the card number and "ubuntu" and you should come up with some stuff.
[14:44] <duddl> irc://irc.Abjects.net/elitemusic
[14:44] <BA^> other than lubuntu which distro would work good on 1ghz/256ram laptop?
[14:45] <ganymede> oCean_, maybe i can run sar on each node and get it to print output into a place on the NFS server so they end up in the same place...?
[14:45] <blip-> scunizi, cool. thanks
[14:45] <scunizi> BA^: DSL ... damn small linux

[14:45] <aef> hi, any idea how to use the displayport of newer thinkpads (i.e. x301) on ubuntu with an hdmi adapter? Fn + F7 (output display switcher) makes the screen flicker for a moment but doesn't work. for vga it works fine.
[14:45] <epinky> BA^: Xubuntu , and Ubuntu but with FluxBox
[14:46] <BA^> epinky: i'm running xfce right now, but i can try fluxbox
[14:46] <jcapinc> Hey, I am using Kubuntu here, and I cannot get my display configuration to change from 1024x768.  How do I manually configure my display modes? xorg.conf is not there and I am lost!
[14:46] <oCean_> ganymede: sure, something like that. Or gather info through ssh remote command. I'd say search google, maybe someone has already done that :)
[14:47] <duddl> sry
[14:47] <yoshx> xorg.conf is not in /etc/X11/ ?
[14:47] <Gummi_> BA^,  there are many, I've used normal ubuntu + Awesome, and also Masonix for a 5 year old laptop
[14:47] <jcapinc> yoshx not in kubuntu it is not!
[14:47] <epinky> BA^: mmmmmmm, Fluxbox is a little bit heavier than XFCE, I think you'll have to add more RAM
[14:47] <ganymede> oCean_, i don't feel safe keeping ssh keys for all our servers in one place... =/
[14:48] <BA^> Gummi_: what's awesome? haven';t heard of it. i'll have to search for masonix
[14:48] <yoshx> xorg is the same in ubuntu kubuntu xubuntu... i don't uderstand
[14:48] <lachouffe> hi ! do you know why i cannot access to ~linux ? i'm forwarded to ##overflow
[14:48] <lachouffe> and i'm a registered user
[14:48] <LjL> lachouffe: you're not identified.
[14:48] <BA^> epinky: i'm just trying to set up this laptop to surf so don't need much...
[14:48] <LjL> lachouffe: further info in #freenode
[14:49] <Gummi_> BA^, awesome is a tiling window manager, you might not like it. it's 1337 if you know what I mean.
[14:49] <BA^> Gummi_, yeah... i hear ya
[14:49] <BlouBlou> lachouffe: you need be registered and identified with NickServ for joining in ##linux, more info in #freenode
[14:49] <jcapinc> yoshx, its a kde4 thing, xorg is not in /etc/X11  where it should be
[14:49] <epinky> yoshx: nope, it's not there by default, one has to create one
[14:49] <jcapinc> its just not there
[14:49] <brianski1> i upgraded two machines to karmic. one has gray icons one has color. i want color. how do i get it? anyone know?
[14:49] <aeon-ltd> 1337? hardly, its just another WM without a GUI configurator
[14:49] <Gummi_> BA^, perhaps you should betatest chromeOS
[14:49] <jcapinc> epinky, if I create one will X read it?
[14:49] <BA^> i installed dwm but when i booted into it i couldn't do anything. lol
[14:50] <lachouffe> BlouBlou, i'm both identified and register !
[14:50] <Gummi_> aeon-ltd, that's true but it is more difficult to get into than kde and gnome and the like
[14:50] <epinky> jcapinc: yep, it'll do so
[14:50] <aeon-ltd> brianski1: grey? you mean gnome defaults?
[14:50] <BA^> Gummi_, perhaps...
[14:50] <Bardology> Hola, just started playing with Ubuntu today. I have apache and php installed, but .php files are being downloaded rather than rendering/displaying
[14:50] <brianski1> aeon-ltd: not sure - i mean the notification for the battery, sound, bluetooth, and wifi are all gray, instead of colored like they were in previous releases
[14:50] <BA^> afk
[14:51] <Gummi_> brianski1, have you set up LAMP ?
[14:51] <epinky> BA^: then try another lighweight distro, not necessarily Ubuntu latest
[14:51] <BlueEagle> ,--8<-
[14:51] <BlueEagle> |Ok, I've run into a weird problem. I used to have a raid array spanning two disks. This array is now long gone but the disks are the same. However when I boot I do get entries in /dev/mapper. This have upon till now not been a problem. But today when I installed and formatted swap partitions on that drive I have lost entries for /dev/sdbX and /dev/sdcX. How would I go about getting them back? How
[14:51] <BlueEagle> |would I best remove the entries in /dev/mapper?
[14:51] <BlueEagle> `-->8-
[14:51] <FloodBot4> BlueEagle: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:51] <aeon-ltd> brianski1: are you using gnome + metacity?
[14:51] <Bardology> Where should I be looking for the config for this?
[14:51] <brianski1> Gummi_: uh, what does that have to do with icon color?
[14:52] <yoshx> ok i didn't knew
[14:52] <erUSUL> !lamp | Bardology
[14:52] <Gummi_> brianski1, I typed wrong nick
[14:52] <Thom-> hello guys, I've a strange problem: my soundcard is bleeping in a very high tone every ~20 seconds. It stops for a few moments when i change the mastervolume to an other value. Does anyone have a clue how to fix that problem?
[14:52] <brianski1> aeon-ltd: i'm using gnome + compiz
[14:52] <wknight8111> I filed a report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/486300
[14:53] <Bardology> Thanks ubottu
[14:53] <wknight8111> I'm sure I don't have enough information there, will supply anything else that people need to see
[14:53] <aeon-ltd> brianski1: there should be settings in gnome-appearences-manager to select what icon set to use
[14:53] <BA^> bak
[14:53] <brianski1> aeon-ltd: oh you know what i bet i'm using two different themes
[14:54] <BlueEagle> thom-: Does this sound like an actual audio signal or noise?
[14:54] <aeon-ltd> brianski1: yeah, probs
[14:54] <brianski1> one machine has been upgraded since edgy, the other was born jaunty.
[14:54] <BA^> thanks for all the advise
[14:54] <Thom-> more noise. It stops when i turn off my logitech soundsystem
[14:54] <davidkarr> Apparently, in order to fix Eclipse and other GDK-using applications, I have to set "GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1" in my environment. Now, the next question is where? I don't imagine setting it in my .profile would work. I tried in /etc/environment. Do I have to "export" settings in that file?
[14:55] <Thom-> it stops when i deactivate the master sound, too, but only for about 30 seconds
[14:55] <akyapt> hey guys i have intel(R)pentuium(r)D CPU 2.80Ghz ........can any 1 tell me will it suppaot 64 bit ubuntu 9.10???
[14:56] <BlueEagle> thom-: Is it a continuous whine or a pulsing sound? Does the character of it alter when moving the mouse, during heavy disk activity or some such? Do you have a microphone?
[14:56] <Bardology> haha, I just had to restart apache ;)
[14:56] <brianski1> fix: change icon set in themes to human from humanity. thanks aeon-ltd
[14:57] <BlueEagle> akyapt: Is it a 32 or 64 bit processor?
[14:57] <aeon-ltd> akyapt: most likely assuming its a dual core, but why would you need ro run 64bit most apps aren't written for x64 yet
[14:57] <MrCheetoDust> is 9.04 the default for a server?
[14:57] <aeon-ltd> ro = *to
[14:57] <Thom-> no microphone, no altering when moving the mouse or anything else. its continuous. It only stops when ic hange anything related to the volume (master, front, center and so on)
[14:57] <aeon-ltd> MrCheetoDust: all LTS versions are
[14:57] <akyapt> Blueeagel:i donno :)
[14:58] <BlueEagle> akyapt: Have you got a liveCD availible?
[14:58] <MrCheetoDust> aeon-ltd: I see (linux newb here). Just got a linode server & figuring out which distro to choose. Planning on deploying Rails
[14:58] <akyapt> Blueeagel:from net i downloaded
[14:58] <BlueEagle> akyapt: ...and have you tried running said CD?
[14:58] <akyapt> aeon-lyd:64 bit are fast i gues??
[14:58] <khensthoth> akyapt: According to WIkipedia, Pentium D should be 64 bit processor.
[14:59] <akyapt> Blueeagel::no i wanted to know wether it will suppor or not
[14:59] <aeon-ltd> MrCheetoDust: its irrelevant whether its LTS though, i'm using arch linux right now with latest(non-testing) and its pretty stable
[14:59] <blip-> guys I just installed 64bit 9.10... i'm using it normally.... there is no /boot/grub/menu.lst file :?   how can that be
[14:59] <akyapt> khenstoth:is it?
[14:59] <aeon-ltd> akyapt: they will be after a mass switchover
[14:59] <MrCheetoDust> aeon-ltd: I see. Should I go w/ 64 or 32 bit?
[15:00] <khensthoth> blip-: Fresh install?
[15:00] <akyapt> aeon-ltd:arent there app for 64 bit?
[15:00] <blip-> khensthoth, yes,   how is it showing me an OS chocie menu then
[15:00] <akyapt> khenstoth:so will it support??
[15:00] <aeon-ltd> MrCheetoDust: i reccommend 32bit for current mass compatibility
[15:00] <obg_>  Hi, is it safe to backup my Ubuntu desktop system (using rsync) while the files are in use, or is it necessary to switch the box off and use a live cd?
[15:00] <MrCheetoDust> aeon-ltd: Ok
[15:00] <khensthoth> blip-: If that is the case, You'd be using GRUB2, which doesn't use the old system of menu.lst anymore.
[15:00] <aeon-ltd> akyapt: some but not enough(for me) to switch
[15:01] <DocMAX> how can i speed up wireless-n lan in ubuntu?
[15:01] <akyapt> aeon-ltd:then waste of installing 64 bit?
[15:01] <blip-> khensthoth, that's what I thought,  but I went and typed apt-get install grub2 and it started installing it :D   anyhow do you know roughly how I can just change the order of menu entries assuming I have 2 ?
[15:01] <Thom-> BlueEagle, the sound is more like the high pitched sound of a dental drill - as i said... strange
[15:01] <aeon-ltd> akyapt: no the new binaries will be useful later, but in the end its your choice
[15:01] <khensthoth> blip-: The instructions and explanations are here. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 If you have any problem ask here later.
[15:01] <g33k> having issue with configuring mantis server on my machine, anyone tired doing this here?
[15:02] <blip-> khensthoth, thanks
[15:02] <akyapt> aeon-ltd:i hmm thanks
[15:02] <epinky> DocMAX: allowing only N devices to associate?
[15:02] <akyapt> aeon-ltd:and can u help me with mother board problem?
[15:02] <khensthoth> blip-: And according to Synaptic, grub2 is just a dummy package.
[15:03] <blip-> khensthoth, ah I see.
[15:03] <aeon-ltd> akyapt: what  kind of problem?
[15:03] <obg_>  Hi, is it safe to backup my Ubuntu 8.04 desktop system (using rsync) while the files are in use, or is it necessary to switch the box off and use a live cd?
[15:03] <BlueEagle> thom-: Is this a laptop or a desktop?
[15:03] <code> Installing (wine/ies4linux) as per this: http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Installation:Ubuntu  I think it install beta pkgs. Do they work problem free on jaunty?
[15:03] <akyapt> aeon-ltd:my mother board suports ram ddr2 400-533 mhz.......can i use 667 mhz of ram???
[15:04] <Thom-> its a desktop (htpc)
[15:04] <akyapt> aeon-ltd:i have intel D102GGC2
[15:04] <jrib> code: see appdb and #winehq for installing ie using wine.  Last I heard, the winehq people do not recommend ies4linux
[15:04] <Thom-> till yesterday ive had winxp on that pc.. it worked fine
[15:04] <jrib> !appdb > code
[15:04] <aeon-ltd> obg_: please don't bump and no not neccessary but don't make changes to files during backup(other than that it should be safe)
[15:04] <Thom-> so i hope its not a hardware issue... i'm using onboard sound
[15:04] <aeon-ltd> akyapt: most ram will 'underclock' for compatibility but i'm not 100% sure
[15:05] <aeon-ltd> akyapt: so no performance gain
[15:05] <akyapt> aeon-ltd:but itll not burn the mother board or the ram na?
[15:05] <obg_> aeon-ltd, much obliged
[15:06] <khensthoth> akyapt: If you install ONLY the 677mhz RAM, it should work at 677. If you have a combo of 400, 533, and/or 677. It'll work at the slowest speed.
[15:06] <aeon-ltd> akyapt: unlikely but anything 'could' happen, its safer to go with more compatible ram
[15:06] <blip-> khensthoth, btw I just rebooted my machine and noticed the grub menu says "GRUB version 1.97 `beta 4"
[15:06] <BlueEagle> !prefix | thom-
[15:07] <khensthoth> blip-: Yup, that's GRUB2.
[15:07] <xskoulax> Anyone using ubuntu on a Samsung N140 netbook that can share how well it works out of the box, and what battery life is like?
[15:07] <Thom-> sorry ;)
[15:07] <akyapt> khensthoth:but then specification for my mother bord sya only 400-533 mhz?????????///
[15:07] <code> jrib thanks, will try it.
[15:08] <BlueEagle> thom-: What you can try is to disable sound output in the BIOS and see if the problem persists. If it does then the noise is in the PCI bus system. If it does not then the most likely cause is bad cabling.
[15:09] <khensthoth> akyapt: If you are afraid, then don't go beyond that. If your motherboard supports only 400-533MHZ and you install a 677MHz DDR2 RAM, it'll work at 400-533 MHz. They should be backwards compatible.
[15:09] <BlueEagle> akyapt: You are running a risk of damaging both the RAM and your motherboard though.
[15:09] <khensthoth> !ot | akyapt
[15:10] <Thom-> BlueEagle, okay, i'll try the disabling first. One more question: Where can i disable the soundcard completely? In Windows I'll go in the device manager and deactivate the soundcard, but i didnt find anything similar
[15:10] <akyapt> khenstoth:means the mother board will take only 533 from 667??
[15:10] <BlueEagle> thom-: In Linux the equivalent would be to disable the module.
[15:10] <git__> hi -- anyone know how to mount lvm (logical volume) from live cd?
[15:10] <erUSUL> akyapt: yes
[15:11] <Thom-> BlueEagle, which module would that be? alsa utils?
[15:11] <aeon-ltd> Thom: in the BIOS of your mobo or in ALSAmixer mute all channels
[15:11] <BlueEagle> thom-: `rmmod snd` would most likely be what you want. Many modules depend on it so it may fail unless all dependencies are removed. Not sure about that.
[15:11] <Arabus> hey, I am currently using ubuntu jaunty and just installed amarok. Funnily it is possible to test the sound devices with amarok and get sound played, but when i want to play any kind of media he does not start to play it. Anyone know why or where to look for a solutionß
[15:11] <Arabus> ?
[15:11] <BlueEagle> thom-: See also: lssmod
[15:11] <BlueEagle> thom-: Bahh.. make that: lsmod
[15:11] <Davidov> hi to all
[15:12] <Thom-> BlueEagle, thanks.
[15:12] <BlueEagle> !hi | davidov
[15:12] <BlueEagle> thom-: You're welcome.
[15:12] <erUSUL> Thom-: soundcore for example ?
[15:12] <pilif12p> hi, im trying to install ubuntu on my PC with bios of 1998, what one do i use?
[15:12] <Davidov> does exist a graphic tool to mange a DAT device (magnetic tape) in Ubuntu ?
[15:12] <pilif12p> 8.04 wont work
[15:13] <aeon-ltd> pilif12p: what processor?
[15:13] <jeka_> не знаете как настроить тв тюнер в ubuntu 9.04 тюнер авермедиа юсб чип А828 дрова встали твтайм поставил а звука нет
[15:14] <BlueEagle> !ru | jeka_
[15:14] <pilif12p> aeon-ltd: i duno
[15:14] <Thom-> is there any device manager in ubuntu? I'd like to try the installing of another driver for my soundcard if the bios deactivation does not work
[15:14] <BlueEagle> pilif12p: Did you attempt to install the 32 or 64-bit version?
[15:14] <BlueEagle> pilif12p: Also; in what way does it not work?
[15:15] <jeka_> 32 х битная
[15:15] <aeon-ltd> pilif12p: you need to find out, ubuntu might just not be able to run on your pc, (i think it only supports from PIII and up)
[15:15] <pilif12p> Blue32 bit
[15:15] <pilif12p> oh
[15:15] <pilif12p> i wanna install server on it...
[15:15] <BlueEagle> pilif12p: ...and what happens when you try to install?
[15:15] <pilif12p> BlueEagle: it tells me my bios are too old
[15:16] <DocMAX> epinky ???
[15:16] <BlueEagle> pilif12p: Then your bios is most likely too old.
[15:16] <DocMAX> only N devices?
[15:16] <pilif12p> oh
[15:16] <pilif12p> i know, but what version can i use?
[15:16] <siddhant3s> I have two PCs running Ubuntu(9.10 and 9.04). I want to connect them via ad hoc wireless to share files
[15:16] <pilif12p> any?

[15:18] <BlueEagle> pilif12p: I am sorry, but I do not know. I am not sure what in particular that causes the limitation with regards to the BIOS but I do assume that it is a kernel issue.
[15:18] <pilif12p> oh
[15:18] <antoni> hi everybody, i'm searching for a tip on fixing too fast vertical movement on 9.10 on lenovo s10 synaptics trackpad. there was a homebrew solution for 8.10 on "slacy's blog" (a replacement .deb package), but for later versions somebody comments: "Jon, the problem has now been solved with Jaunty. You have only to tweak the speed, but you can do it by modifying the xorg.conf file." i can't...
[15:18] <antoni> ...follow it, xorg.conf doesn't appear to include such settings
[15:18] <pilif12p> can i even use like ubuntu server?
[15:19] <dailystruggle> is ther a certain protocol for this room?
[15:19] <padhu> HI
[15:19] <BlueEagle> antoni: If a setting is not already present in xorg.conf you can add it yourself. However you need to be careful about putting the settings in the correct sections.
[15:19] <aeon-ltd> pilif12p: unlike;y, but there are other distros that cater to older pcs
[15:19] <GNUtoo> hi, I'm making a livecd with openssh(or netcat)+openvpn because of broken laptop screen,what should I do in order to replace network-manager and dhcpcd on ethernet card?
[15:19] <h0rder> is there a good gui intrusion detection ?
[15:20] <pbailey> web gui ?
[15:20] <dailystruggle> Or just jump in
[15:20] <khensthoth> dailystruggle: Just ask your questions if you have any.
[15:20] <dailystruggle> h0rder:what do you ean?
[15:20] <Davidov> does exist a graphic tool (GUI) to mange a magnetic tape device (DAT) in Ubuntu instead to use MT from terminal ?
[15:20] <pbailey> snorby the mordern snort interface http://snorby.org/
[15:20] <h0rder> like a firewall for ubuntu where I can be notified if I am being attacked
[15:20] <ganymede> CShadowRun, where in /proc would you a find per-core cpu usage breakdown of usage in %?
[15:20] <CShadowRun> ganymede: i'll post a code example hold on, it's a little complicated
[15:21] <BlueEagle> antoni: In xorg.conf there are different sections. ServerLayout is the one that sais which of the other sections are actually used. All sections do have a type and an identifier. The ServerLayout doesn't need all types defined as it has become quite good at guessing defaults.
[15:21] <antoni> BlueEagle: xorg.conf has almost nothing inside, a few lines, i believe the settings are in some dependent subfiles. anyway, can you guide me how to do it in this case (i know how to edit xorg.conf, but what to add)?
[15:21] <aeon-ltd> h0rder: isn't that a paradox, if anyone could launch a attack wouldn't they do it undetected?
[15:21] <padhu> h0rder: what do you want?
[15:21] <donri> is ubuntu's empathy not compiled for voice and video chat?
[15:22] <h0rder> hm
[15:22] <padhu> donri: It has an voice chat.
[15:22] <CShadowRun> ganymede: http://pastebin.com/m1c8007d6
[15:22] <BlueEagle> antoni: What you would most likely need to do is define a section "InputDevice" with and Identifier of "Touchpad" and the appropriate Driver and Option lines. Then make sure that the ServerLayout include: InputDevice "Touchpad" "Corepointer"
[15:22] <CShadowRun> ganymede: that's an applet i made for my keyboards LCD display to show per-core CPU usage, and memory usage.
[15:22] <ctmjr> !firewall | h0rder
[15:22] <CShadowRun> ganymede: so it should do you fine :)
[15:22] <pilif12p> The processer is an intel celeron, fwiw
[15:22] <donri> padhu, i get no interface for it, no microphones on the contacts, and in rightclick it's grayed out
[15:23] <kielanmatt> josh?
[15:23] <ganymede> CShadowRun, thanks
[15:23] <dailystruggle> new user login gives error for something missing
[15:23] <donri> padhu, i get lots of microphones and cameras on my contacts in fedora

[15:23] <dailystruggle> user swither?
[15:23] <h0rder> ctmjr: thanks
[15:23] <dailystruggle> switcher
[15:23] <binrapt> I have like 60 instances of /usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon running - is this normal?
[15:24] <toffan> hi there
[15:24] <donri> binrapt, mostly children, right?
[15:24] <aeon-ltd> siddhant3s: please don't bump, have you checked out ssh'ing into a machine and copying files over or read about SAMBA
[15:24] <toffan> visual effects are not working in my system
[15:24] <toffan> how to enable that?
[15:24] <ctmjr> h0rder: your welcome
[15:24] <BlueEagle> antoni: Let's imagine that you need the driver Synaptic and an option like VSpeed 100. You would then create a section like this (\n == line break): Section "InputDevice"\n Identifier "Touchpad"\n Driver "Synaptics"\n Option "VSpeed" "100"\n EndSection
[15:25] <toffan> hi ubottu
[15:25] <antoni> BlueEagle: here's my xorg.conf: http://wklej.org/id/211902/
[15:25] <dailystruggle> not on my end brinpat
[15:25] <aeon-ltd> toffan: have you got a compositing manager installed?
[15:25] <binrapt> donri I don't know how to check that
[15:25] <binrapt> Each instance uses like 2 MB of memory
[15:25] <toffan> aeon-ltd: how to check that?
[15:25] <Enissay> the deb pachage installer window freezed!!! how can i close/stop it please?
[15:25] <dailystruggle> woah
[15:25] <toffan> ! bot
[15:25] <siddhant3s> aeon-ltd, Sorry for bumping. And how do I share the internet?
[15:25] <binrapt> The Ubuntu forums said there should only be one of these
[15:25] <kielanmatt> josh?
[15:25] <donri> binrapt, could be shared memory
[15:25] <antoni> BlueEagle: got it, what about the ServerLayout section? it's not there
[15:25] <aeon-ltd> toffan: are you using gnome + metacity A.K.A stock ubuntu?
[15:25] <donri> binrapt, if you get a tree listing, you'll clearly see if they're children
[15:25] <binrapt> donri it's 3 MB per process, 1 of that is shared
[15:26] <binrapt> I tried pstree but it's not visible there hm
[15:26] <toffan> am using ubuntu 9,10
[15:26] <aeon-ltd> siddhany3s: share the internet? you mean like a proxy?
[15:26] <binrapt> root process, right
[15:26] <binrapt> Oh yes donri you're right
[15:26] <AceKing> Can someone help with a sound problem? Everything worked fine a couple of days ago, now I don't have any sound. When I hover my moues over the volume control it says dummy output. I don't know if that has anything to do with it
[15:26] <binrapt> 64 instances
[15:26] <aeon-ltd> toffan: check in gnome-appearences-manager the last tab should be compiz/visual effects
[15:26] <binrapt> 1 parent, 63 children
[15:26] <aeon-ltd> siddhant3s: share the internet? you mean like a proxy?
[15:26] <toffan> one sec

[15:27] <siddhant3s> aeon-ltd, I don't have router
[15:27] <toffan> aeon-ltd: where to check that please tell me, am new to ubuntu
[15:28] <binrapt> I can't kill them either hm
[15:28] <BlueEagle> antoni: You may need: Screen 0 "Default Screen". Not sure tho. I run dual screen setup.
[15:28] <aeon-ltd> siddhant3s: i'm sorry i don't know how to do that, have you searched the wiki for sharing eth0 connections over wifi
[15:28] <h0rder> I would like to completely delete windows after installing ubuntu, and Ive been dabbling with linux for years
[15:28] <BlueEagle> antoni: Also BE SURE TO BACK UP your old xorg.conf in case things go wrong.
[15:28] <toffan> aeon-ltd: it is showing an error "Desktop effects could not be enabled"
[15:28] <CShadowRun> !gparted | h0rder
[15:29]  * h0rder was just sayin.. :)
[15:29] <aeon-ltd> toffan: you might not have a powerful enough gpu

[15:29] <toffan> aeon-ltd: what makes it enable now

[15:30] <siddhant3s> aeon-ltd, Yes
[15:30] <binrapt> Haha 2 years, still not fixed
[15:30] <epinky> DocMAX: configure in your {AP,router} to allow access "only-N"
[15:30] <padhu> donri: Just try voice recorder first to check  that your micro phone is detected and proper driver/module isloaded
[15:31] <aeon-ltd> siddhant3s: i'm not even sure thats possible for usb to pc to wifi
[15:31] <archet45> how come my cursor isnt reflecting any changes i make in the "appearance" options?
[15:31] <dailystruggle> so you are saying 148454 still exists
[15:32] <toffan> aeon-ltd: sorry it is still showing the same
[15:32] <donri> padhu, probably not, as this is in a virtualbox. i didn't expect it to do such checks as it "works" in the fedora virtualbox.
[15:32] <jfb_h2o> sound problems! speaker-test works, otherwise hardware seems not to be found... suggestions?
[15:32] <siddhant3s> aeon-ltd,  I think you can help me with this at least: How can I share my files with a *windows* user. Samba?
[15:32] <aeon-ltd> siddhant3s: its all in the ubuntu wiki
[15:32] <toffan> ubottu: please check this once..!
[15:32] <aeon-ltd> toffan: do you know what graphics card you have?
[15:33] <toffan> aeon-ltd: that is intel
[15:33] <padhu> donri: oh. I am not yet tried it. But some one in this room will point out the way.
[15:33] <spacecataz> why did they remove pidgin in 9.10

[15:34] <padhu> spacecataz:  sudo apt-get install pidgin
[15:34] <toffan> aeon-ltd: is there anyway to check the graphic card from terminal?
[15:34] <toffan> commands?

[15:35] <wrapster> is OSS available for ubuntu>
[15:35] <AceKing> Can someone help with no sound issue in Karmic? I had sound a couple of days ago. I pasted an output that may help. http://paste.ubuntu.com/324427/
[15:35] <wrapster> apt-cache search does not yield conclusive result
[15:35] <padhu> spacecataz: change is main in improvement. Try to follow. Ubuntu 9.10.1 will give good performence as you wish.
[15:35] <dailystruggle> jongbergs
[15:36] <dailystruggle> what if it is PCI e
[15:36] <mzawieska> hey guys I have problem with the laptop...i have toshiba pavilion dv9000 and i though its hd problems so i have the same laptop took the hd of it and put it back in to the broken one
[15:36] <toffan> aeon-ltd: what he told?
[15:36] <spacecataz> agreed padhu
[15:36] <mzawieska> this laptop have 2 hd first and second
[15:36] <jongbergs> dailystruggle: it means your card uses PCI Express slot
[15:36] <spacecataz> im not complaining much except now i cant get online? lol i hit something wrong in the networking settings hold on
[15:36] <aeon-ltd> toffan: lspci -v | grep -i vga
[15:36] <epinky> DocMAX, you first question was howto speed a N network, if some "g" is present then it'll work that while at "g" speeds
[15:36] <ganymede> is there a way to make top display per-cpu usage in batch mode (e.g. specified on the command line as an option)? i can open top in interactive mode and press 1 to do it, how about on the command line?
[15:36] <toffan> got it
[15:36] <spacecataz> im installing this on a mac by the way using vmware fusion 3
[15:36] <padhu> ubuntu live cum installation CD is enough
[15:36] <mzawieska> when i put the hd to the second connector the laptop loades and rapidly restarts what can be the cause
[15:37] <toffan> aeon-ltd: Intel Corporation 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 10)
[15:37] <mzawieska> any ideas/
[15:37] <jongbergs> dailystruggle: it's a newer bus architecture intended for graphics card
[15:38] <aeon-ltd> toffan: do you have ccsm installed? because you can use that instead of gnome-appearence-manager
[15:38] <dailystruggle> that just give vga compat
[15:38] <padhu> mzawieska: any error messages?
[15:38] <toffan> i will check now one sec
[15:38] <dailystruggle> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G96 [GeForce 9400 GT] (rev a1)
[15:38] <mzawieska> no
[15:38] <dailystruggle> does not say driver
[15:38] <mzawieska> then i plug in the hd i am getting system not found
[15:39] <toffan> aeon-ltd: ihave just downloaded simple ccsm
[15:39] <dailystruggle> is the command different for 64bit?
[15:39] <aeon-ltd> toffan: can you set effects with it?
[15:39] <mzawieska> and when i take out the hd and put it to the second slot it loads and u know askin to press f2 and f10 to bios but then it restarts
[15:40] <toffan> aeon-ltd: no still showing the same error
[15:40] <jHanO> what will i put in evolution mail, the server portion? tnx
[15:40] <toffan> aeon-ltd: previously i had installed ubuntu 8.4 and it was working fine
[15:40] <mzawieska> padhu, do u think the connectors fails?
[15:41] <aeon-ltd> toffan: this could be a bug in the system
[15:41] <toffan> aeon-ltd: what i have to do now?
[15:41] <jfb_h2o> what do I need to do so that i don't need to do alsa force-reload after every reboot?
[15:41] <aeon-ltd> toffan: report it or search the forums for others with the same problem
[15:41] <switchgirl1> tis ok i ran a disk check all sorted thakies
[15:42] <padhu> mzawieska: No, I think your grub will not able to reorganize the partitions
[15:42] <xpo0f> :)
[15:42] <dailystruggle> aeon-ltd: Is there a different command for 64bit
[15:42] <Jay_fox> i'm new to linux and i'm decided to give putting ubuntu on the PS3, but seems i'm having a problem, anyone want to help?

[15:47] <padhu> mzawieska: Are you tring to edit GRUB?
[15:47] <archet45> why would my pointers not reflect the style i'm changing them to?

[15:49] <padhu> mzawieska: could you read the log file /var/demsg from live CD. It will give you an clue.
[15:49] <mzawieska> padhu, good?
[15:49] <leoykt> hi peoples
[15:50] <padhu> mzawieska: Good try.
[15:50] <BluesKaj> mzawieska, do you have your hard drive as first or second in the boot sequence ?
[15:50] <mzawieska> padhu, i am going to tell u if its recognized

[15:52] <binrapt> I just specified a DNS server to use in the NetworkManager GUI, yet the changes don't appear to get written to /etc/resolv.conf - why is this?
[15:53] <mzawieska> padhu, and u know what i did i plut in the external usb 8 gigs to the usb
[15:53] <binrapt> Also, previously I actually ended up rebooting Ubuntu in order to make a static IP I had specified work

[15:57] <padhu> mzawieska: OK. In IDE?
[15:57] <toffan> what account you use?
[15:58] <solomon> just checking... do you still need to use the alternate installer if you want to install karmic to multiple drives using raid0?
[15:58] <c1h23r456i78910> how can I secure my external hard drive?
[15:58] <Levi`> not using root
[15:58] <Levi`> i'm fairly new to the linux world..

[16:00] <aiwata55> hi, I wanted to install phpmyadmin onto Ubuntu 9.10 by using apt-get, but apt-get couldn't find the package.  is this a known issue?
[16:00] <padhu> Levi`: what is the problem?
[16:00] <Levi`> padhu, i am unable to DCC.. chat or send or recieve
[16:00] <Levi`> using kubuntu + xchat
[16:00] <Levi`> i have allowed all ports in my router
[16:01] <Levi`> is there a firewall within this OS?
[16:01] <RobLikesBrunch> How can I automatically mount a drive on start-up, so I don't have to constantly input my password?
[16:01] <epinky> aiwata55: "sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin" ?
[16:02] <padhu> Levi`: I am not familiar with Kubuntu, Just check it up.
[16:02] <BlueEagle> I am having two disks that don't have entries as /dev/sdXY. They do list in lshw as "UNCLAIMED". How can I create the /dev/sdXY entries for these disks?
[16:02] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, put it in fstab and have it mount by UUID
[16:02] <aiwata55> epinky: I ran the command as root
[16:02] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: What's "UUID"?
[16:03] <erUSUL> !uuid
[16:03] <leoykt> !rus
[16:03] <sobczyk_> hi, how to limit max screen resolution system wide?
[16:03] <epinky> aiwata55: it didn't work (as root)?
[16:03] <leoykt> ðóññêèå çäåñü åñòü?
[16:03] <joeyeye> RobLikesBrunch, do ls /dev/disk/by-uuid and you will find the uuids of your drives
[16:03] <leoykt> ðóññêèå â ïðèâàò!
[16:03] <aiwata55> epinky: no
[16:04] <RobLikesBrunch> Okay, thanks everyone. So the UUID serves as an identifier?
[16:04] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, sudo vol_id /dev/sda1 also works
[16:04] <joeyeye> RobLikesBrunch, are you mounting a network drive over samba/cifs ?
[16:04] <RobLikesBrunch> joeyeye: No, automatically mounting a drive on start-up
[16:04] <shuaikun> aiwata55: Try another source and refresh .
[16:04] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, yes, UUID are more robust than mounting by device name since the device name might change if the device is plugged in in a different order
[16:04] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Aha, thanks.
[16:04] <aiwata55> shuaikun: you mean, build phpmyadmin from the source?
[16:04] <x_link> Hi
[16:05] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, by the way, i'm assuming you're plugging in a block device such as an external hard disk
[16:05] <country0129> Anyone familiar with USB wired ADSL router/modem setup in 9.10?  (lsusb) 'sees' the port, properly sees it as Westell (327w), but I can't get networking to establish a connection.  I probably need a driver,  but Westell/Linksys don't have drivers for Linux.
[16:05] <x_link> I have a small problem, I don't know if this is the right channel to ask in
[16:05] <epinky> aiwata55: apt-get update , already performed?
[16:05] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, and the problem you have is that it doesn't automount until you get to the desktop
[16:05] <kostkon> !ask | x_link
[16:05] <aiwata55> epinky: yes
[16:05] <x_link> But when I connect my 22" monitor to my laptop I get really really bad picture.
[16:05] <thrope> hi - in 9.10 all my drives are just named 'XXXGB Drive' on the desktop and in nautilus - any way to get the proper names to show again (they are still there if I do right click - properties)
[16:05] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: No, the problem is I have to authenticate it to get it to mount, and I want this to occur automatically on start-up
[16:05] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, and you'd like to it to mount even if the gdm welcome screen is still up
[16:05] <x_link> I did it with "xrandr --output VGA --auto"
[16:06] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, sorry, then i misunderstood your problem, what kind of mount is this? samba/cifs?
[16:06] <epinky> aiwata55: what's the exact error you got?
[16:06] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Err....
[16:07] <unwedged85> hi guys, how do I time how long a command took?
[16:07] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: NTFS :D?
[16:07] <spiderworm> does anyone know of a way to get the latest version of /etc/init.d/lirc ???  i tried uninstalling lirc and then reinstalling it, but that didnt do it
[16:07] <x_link> Anybody=
[16:07] <x_link> ?
[16:07] <ganymede> BlueEagle, the device names should be made automatically. maybe check dmesg or syslog or something to see why they didn't get device names?
[16:07] <thrope> actually it is "320 GB Filesystem" that is the current name - please help me get the proper parittion name!
[16:07] <aiwata55> epinky: root@localhost:/var/www# apt-get install phpmyadmin

[16:07] <FloodBot4> aiwata55: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:07] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, and what sort of "authentication" are you doing to mount it?
[16:08] <epinky> aiwata55: !pastebin | aiwata55
[16:08] <epinky> !pastebin | aiwata55
[16:08] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Whatever the standard Ubuntu thing is. It just pops up with the password dialogue--the same one required for anything in the "Administration" window
[16:08] <Lord-Readman> Anyone here use Nvidia x.ord v96 driver?
[16:08] <joeyeye> RobLikesBrunch, is this drive physically connected ? What kind of drive are we talking about ?
[16:08] <BlueEagle> ganymede: I am guessing it is remnants from an old raid array that is causing this. I have tried blacklisting dm_raid45 and xor modules, but they still get loaded.
[16:08] <RobLikesBrunch> joeyeye: Internal, SATA
[16:09] <aiwata55> sorry for the flood
[16:09] <unwedged85> anyway I can know how long a command took to execute?
[16:09] <ZaNeIuM> how do i turn of that drum sound at the login screen?
[16:09] <baron> hey im setting up virtual host.. i have hello world.com and batman.com and want them both to go the karma.com ... can i put those to in the apache 2 setup under server aliases?
[16:09] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, yeah, so just put an entry in /etc/fstab to get it to automount by UUID. /etc/fstab should already have UUID examples since it mounts / by UUID
[16:09] <toffan> anyone can tell me where i can find all the terminal commands..?
[16:09] <baron> kinda like domain forwarding?
[16:09] <jrib> !terminal | toffan
[16:10] <jrib> baron: try #apache
[16:10] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Okay, let me check that out
[16:10] <ganymede> BlueEagle, sorry, i've never touched RAID
[16:10] <toffan> thanks jrib, ubottu:
[16:10] <mvalviar> hi. I can't switch users. Everytime I try I get: 'Unable to start new display'
[16:10] <obg_> How can I test whether my DVD burner supports dual layer (before actually buying the discs)?
[16:10] <BlueEagle> ganymede: I see. Well I am attempting to remove the dmraid package now. Perhaps that will help.
[16:10] <epinky> aiwata55: could you post the error using pastebin?
[16:10] <toffan> !terminal
[16:10] <gnudoc> I have four machines running karmic on a home network. For package upgrades, can i set them up to cache the upgrades locally, so that they all download them from one machine? I don't want to have to create a full local mirror though.
[16:11] <aiwata55> epinky, shuaikun: so, "apt-get install phpmyadmin" should work even on 9.10?
[16:11] <unwedged85> gnudoc, try apt-cacher or apt-miror
[16:11] <unwedged85> *apt-mirror
[16:11] <aiwata55> oh, isee
[16:11] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: I have no idea how to approach this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/324449/
[16:12] <Lord-Readman> the minimise buttons and close button are all missing using the nvidia 96 driver, and mx440
[16:12] <aiwata55> epinky: http://paste.ubuntu.com/324451/
[16:12] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, have you ever used fstab before?
[16:13] <BlueEagle> ganymede: Actually that removed the symptoms and hid the problem. :)
[16:13] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: No, but I'm looking through documentation right now. I'll try to figure it out and if I have problems I'll annoy you with them :D
[16:13] <unwedged85> how do I time how long a command took to finish?
[16:13] <mdwright> anyone have any idea why the elflord colorscheme's background color won't show up in VIM? (it works fine in GVIM)
[16:13] <gnudoc> unwedged85: thanks a lot, apt-cacher looks about right
[16:13] <mdwright> unwedged85: time <command>
[16:13] <country0129> Anyone familiar with USB wired ADSL router/modem setup in 9.10?  (lsusb) 'sees' the port, properly sees it as Westell (327w), but I can't get networking to establish a connection.  I probably need a driver,  but Westell/Linksys don't have drivers for Linux.
[16:13] <epinky> aiwata55: enter synaptic, then configuration, repositories and add the universe and multiverse repositories for all the categories
[16:14] <kermit_> hi there, i wanna ask. i already upgrade 9.04 to 9.10 should i doing clean installation?
[16:14] <unwedged85> mdwright, thanks, but how about commands with options? 'command' doesn't work...
[16:14] <mvalviar> please I really need to be able to switch users. I've looked every where for this.
[16:14] <andomonir> unwedged85: It does, just tried it. Command is YOUR command
[16:15] <BlueEagle> kermit_: Are you having any trouble with the upgraded system?
[16:15] <khensthoth> thrope: Would this guide help you? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RenameUSBDrive
[16:15] <kermit_> hi there, i wanna ask. i already upgrade 9.04 to 9.10 should i doing clean installation
[16:15] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, by the way, if you're mounting an NTFS drive, i think there might some complications because NTFS doesn't have a native kernel driver, it's a so-called FUSE driver so i don't know if that has any ramifications when using fstab
[16:15] <mdwright> unwedged: you should be able to ignore time from there, so       `time cp file /newlocation/file`   for example
[16:15] <VeNeZoLaNo> Buenas A Todos
[16:15] <mdwright> unwedged85: sorry, missed the 85, see above
[16:15] <epinky> !es | VeNeZoLaNo
[16:15] <kermit_> no, but im using ext 3 should i upgrade to ext 4
[16:15] <unwedged85> andomonir, mdwright I see, the ' is unnecessary... time command options works. thanks :)
[16:16] <kensanata> I'm having trouble configuring my iBook G4 Touchpad using Ubuntu 9.10. The wiki seems to suggest HAL, ie. create an .fdi file and restart; but when I run synclient it still claims SHMConfig is disabled. Also, xinput list doesn't list any Synaptics, ALPS or touchpad. I get "ADB Mouse" and "Macintosh mouse button emulation" instead. Ideas?
[16:16] <BlueEagle> kermit_: Do you need the new features offered by ext4?
[16:16] <andomonir> unwedged85: :D
[16:16] <shuaikun> unwedged85: time ./abc
[16:17] <unwedged85> shuaikun, yeah, I just saw that "time dpkg -l" works fine
[16:17] <kermit_> i think yes, but there are lot of programs i already installed like ubuntuzilla, pidgin etc
[16:17] <aiwata55> epinky: thank you for the advice, but I don't understand the Unix terms at all
[16:17] <mdwright> unwedged85: Glad to help!
[16:17] <FoolsRun> Hi, what's the best way to upgrade to Karmic on a command-line-only machine?
[16:17] <thrope> khensthoth: ah great thanks... (they're not usb which is why i didn't find it - but partition label solves it)
[16:18] <FoolsRun> Will apt-get dist-upgrade do it?
[16:18] <epinky> aiwata55: did you enter Synaptic?
[16:18] <BlueEagle> kermit_: Your settings are all in your home folder which should ideally be on a separate partition. As such they would not be affected by an upgrade.
[16:18] <BluesKaj> FoolsRun, sudo do-release-upgrade
[16:18] <BlueEagle> kermit_: (that would also leave your old file system un-upgraded).
[16:18] <FoolsRun> BluesKaj: will that install packages that weren't previously installed, like GDM?
[16:18] <BlueEagle> kermit_: did you read: http://maketecheasier.com/how-to-upgrade-from-ext3-to-ext4-without-formatting-the-hard-disk/2009/04/21
[16:19] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Does this seem right: UUID="AA6638EB6638BA41" /media/media ntfs   and I'm unsure about the ntfs option, as you said...
[16:19] <kermit_> yeah i already upgrade into karmic, but i think i need ext 4
[16:19] <unwedged85> mdwright, this may  sound stupid, but do I add the system, user and sys values?
[16:19] <BluesKaj> FoolsRun, no , it looks at your apps and upgrades
[16:19] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, that looks too short to be a UUID, and also, i think you want to use "ntfs-3g" and not "ntfs" and also, the rest of the line is missing
[16:19] <FoolsRun> BluesKaj: awesome. Thanks!
[16:19] <BlueEagle> kermit_: Did you read the link?
[16:20] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, use sudo vol_id to get the UUID, it's it should be this long and have hyphens like this: a4bad350-aab8-4be8-ac08-9f5ee398ee98
[16:20] <aiwata55> spinky: i entered "Synaptic" but that command was not found
[16:21] <epinky> aiwata55: I know this is a bit outdated but the procedure is similar for Karmic 9.10 , check this and try http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-enable-the-universe-and-multiverse-repositories-in-ubuntu-804-hardy.html
[16:21] <kermit_> i am opening rite now
[16:21] <BlueEagle> kermit_: To be able to upgrade the system disk that disk can not be mounted. This means that you would need to run off a live cd like Knoppix or the Ubuntu desktop installer cd.
[16:21] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, you probably want this under the options columnn: "defaults,locale=en_US.utf8,auto", and you want 0 in both the dump and pass column
[16:22] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: sudo: vol_id: command not found
[16:22] <kermit_> i already hv new karmic cd
[16:22] <kermit_> Anything that deals with the filesystem hack always involve certain risks. While we have tested it out and get it working on our systems, there is no guarantee that it will work for you. We shall not be responsible for any data loss or hard disk crash. Before you try this, please remember to BACKUP your system and important files.
[16:22] <RobLikesBrunch> Aside from the UUID, does this look any good: UUID="AA6638EB6638BA41" /media/media ntfs-3g auto,user,ro,auto,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000
[16:22] <kermit_> risky isnt it?
[16:22] <jongbergs> ganymede RobLikesBrunch : vol_id in karmic has been surperseded by blkid command
[16:22] <exoo> Hello
[16:22] <BlueEagle> kermit_: I would not do this to my /home folder unless I had just made a backup.
[16:23] <kensanata> Ugh, regarding my iBook G4 with ADB mouse -- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=380884 seems to suggest patching the kernel (but these guys are using 8.04 and less)...
[16:23] <mdwright> unwedged85: no each one has a different meaning. the first gives the real time from when you called it to when it exited, the second gives you the user CPU time, and the third system CPU time
[16:23] <BlueEagle> kermit_: ...and I just recovered the partition table of two disks from a previous raid array that was over written.
[16:23] <vozhyk_> How to run 3D on the videocard that doesn't support OpenGL(built-in SiS)?
[16:23] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Here's my output of blkid http://paste.ubuntu.com/324458/
[16:23] <unwedged85> mdwright, ok thanks :)
[16:23] <exoo> I need some help with cpu sensors. I try "sensors" and get this output:
[16:23] <exoo> sensors
[16:23] <exoo> acpitz-virtual-0
[16:23] <exoo> Adapter: Virtual device
[16:23] <exoo> temp1:       +16.0°C  (crit = +106.0°C)
[16:23] <FloodBot4> exoo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:24] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, well that's interesting, i didn't know UUIDs can be that short...
[16:24] <hummerp> anyone who knows how to get reversed DNS to work properly? I can get a host to point to an IP, but I can't get that IP to point to the host if that makes any sense
[16:24] <exoo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/324459/ that looks a bit wrong? I want to see my CPU temperaure
[16:24] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, but then again, i've never used NTFS, i've only used ext3 and xfs, i guess just try with the short UUID and see if it works
[16:24] <jongbergs> ganymede: i have that UUID's on my nfts partitions
[16:25] <jongbergs> ganymede: kind like it's filesystem specific
[16:25] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, also, i don't think you have a dump and pass column in that line you pasted to me
[16:25] <mdwright> I'm in Ubuntu 9.10, and the elflord colorscheme doesn't seem to be displaying properly in VIM, but works just fine in GVIM. In particular, I think its just the background thats not displaying. Any ideas?
[16:25] <kermit_> hmmm i wil not upgrade into ext 4
[16:25] <RobLikesBrunch> Ganymede: I don't know what those are...I stole the options from: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[16:25] <BlueEagle> exoo: Do you have anything useful in /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/ ?
[16:26] <RobLikesBrunch> Ganymede: What does it mean to "dump" a filesystem?
[16:26] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, you probably need " 0 0" at the end, 0 for dump and 0 for pass
[16:26] <MkS1992> hello
[16:26] <exoo> BlueEagle, anyhing useful? Oh i have to look in this folder?
[16:26] <exoo> One Momen
[16:26] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Okay. UUID="AA6638EB6638BA41" /media/media ntfs-3g auto,user,ro,auto,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000 0 0
[16:26] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, i honestly have never known what the dump is and i've always used 0
[16:26] <exoo> one moment
[16:26] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: That looks good?
[16:26] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Haha xD
[16:27] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, your options list has "auto,user" twice but that's not probably much of a problem
[16:27] <mikejet> Why are the descriptions of Software Updates so lame?
[16:27] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, otherwise, it looks line
[16:27] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Crap, didn't even notice XD
[16:27] <exoo> BlueEagle, there is one folder THNZ
[16:27] <exoo> THZN sorry
[16:27] <master_> bryy
[16:27] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Okay, let me log out and log in to see if it works.
[16:28] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, unmount your NTFS thing using sudo umount i guess, and then run "mount -a" as a user to see if mounts it automatically
[16:28] <shine1> do anyone run into such a problem as me? : I plug in external monitor, there is no display, so I click "display" to change configuration, but I lost display on both screen, but it seems the external monitor is activated, although nothing shows up.... I had to do hard power off....:'(
[16:28] <master_>
[16:28] <mikejet> Because a simple webpage of weekly updates, formatted in clear English, would be a huge improvement to this ridiculous scrolled table of gibberish.
[16:28] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Or that.
[16:28] <joeyeye> RobLikesBrunch, you should be able to just sudo mount -a
[16:28] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: okay.
[16:28] <rgs_> hey guys, whats a good password manager for ubuntu?
[16:28] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, if "mount -a" mounts the NTFS thing, then it'll most likely automount upon reboot
[16:28] <BlueEagle> exoo: And in that directory?
[16:28] <jongbergs> shine1: logout and log back in
[16:29] <aiwata55> epinky: thanx a lot! it now works!!
[16:29] <exoo> 5 files
[16:29] <exoo> you need the names?
[16:29] <exoo> temperature is in it
[16:29] <master_> polish??
[16:29] <mikejet> Has "totem" ever worked doing any task, on any computer, in the history of humanity? What totem is trying to do, and why it fails 110% of the time, and why nobody else notices is a real mystery.
[16:29] <BlueEagle> exoo: And what does the file "temperature" contain?
[16:29] <exoo> 16°C
[16:30] <exoo> 16 C sorry
[16:30] <BlueEagle> exoo: ...which would be the current temperature.
[16:30] <exoo> 16C?!
[16:30] <mikejet> And this is on a standard ubuntu install.
[16:30] <spridel> Bingo!
[16:30] <exoo> It's a bit cold?
[16:30] <mikejet> What. Is. Totem?
[16:30] <BlueEagle> exoo: Well, it might be a malfunction or a bias that's not being calculated correctly but to check that you'd need to post info about the sensors in question and so on.
[16:31] <Steven_> hahaha
[16:31] <country0129> Anyone familiar with USB wired ADSL router/modem setup in 9.10?  (lsusb) 'sees' the port, properly sees it as Westell (327w), but I can't get networking to establish a connection.  I probably need a driver,  but Westell/Linksys don't have drivers for Linux.
[16:31] <BlueEagle> exoo: If your nipples are hard then it sounds about right tho.
[16:31] <mikejet> The default ubuntu configuration seems to have totem set up to play .wmv files, but it is incapable of playing .wmv files.
[16:31] <ganymede> mikejet, haha, yeah, i agree, i have a script that i run whenever i install ubuntu to set it up the way i want and one of the lines is "apt-get purge totem totem-common"
[16:32] <BluesKaj> !ndiswrapper | country0129
[16:32] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Err....I don't know where it went.
[16:32] <exoo> BlueEagle, could i complain with bios temperature?
[16:32] <shine1>  jongbergs: thanks, you are suggesting me to logout and login after I plug in the external monitor? I will try that. but is there a way to avoid hard power off if the display disappear?
[16:32] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, where what went?
[16:32] <khensthoth> country0129: Is it possible to connect via Ethernet?
[16:32] <exoo> because it's too warm for 16C
[16:33] <country0129> Yessir, but there's precious little concerning how to set it up with USB, and I can't find a driver for the Westell 327W that works with Linux.
[16:33] <scunizi> mikejet: you need the restricted codecs.. perhaps the gstreamer-ugly package..
[16:33] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Well. The drive vanished.
[16:33] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, as in...it's not in /dev anymore?
[16:33] <country0129> No, Khensthoth.  I don't have a jack for ethernet on my computer.
[16:33] <BlueEagle> exoo: Hang on... Your paste cites the sensor active to be "Virtual device"... That doesn't sound like something that would provide any real life temperature tbh.
[16:33] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: I changed the mount point from /media/media to /dev/sda
[16:33] <RobLikesBrunch> /dev/sda1*
[16:33] <BlueEagle> exoo: Are you running a nVidia chipset or some aBit uGuru mojo?
[16:33] <mikejet> scunizi, I am so done with installing obscure packages, or suggestions like that. Hey, just run apt-get install wild-goose
[16:34] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: and there is no "sda1" in /dev/
[16:34] <Billiard> country0129: usb nic, 30 bux maybe
[16:34] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, wait, i don't think you want to do that...
[16:34] <scunizi> !restricted | mikejet
[16:34] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Well it didn't mount with /media/media
[16:34] <vock> Just wondering if anyone knows if there's going to be a karmic minimalist install release coming?
[16:34] <happylol> now everybody should really see this -> http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/tv/TED-India-Pranav-Mistry/videoshow_ted/5231080.cms
[16:34] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, did /media/media exist?
[16:34] <mikejet> scunizi, Is there a webpage on ubuntu.com that explains that in clear English?
[16:34] <MkS1992> how to set up an irc server on linux ubuntu
[16:34] <RobLikesBrunch> No :D
[16:34] <country0129> I know, Sir.  Even less someplaces, but I'd really like to get it started like this until about February or so.
[16:34] <BlueEagle> roblikesbrunch: You do NOT want to mount any device in the /dev directory.
[16:34] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, sudo mkdir -p /media/media
[16:35] <RobLikesBrunch> BlueEagle: Why :(?
[16:35] <khensthoth> country0129: How about wireless? I've been searching online for a linux driver for that since you first asked and I haven't found any. Not sure if it exist at all.
[16:35] <scunizi> mikejet: go ahead and read the ubottu link.. wmv & wma re restricted packages because they have licensing attached to them..
[16:35] <mikejet> I am also done with hunting in these asinine forum webpage blogs that inevitably show you material from 2002.
[16:35] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, mount point column is the TARGET, not the source. it shouldn't even let you mount onto a block device...
[16:35] <BlueEagle> roblikesbrunch: Because that is where the device notes live and mounting a device node in there would most likely cause inexplicable bugs later.
[16:35] <mikejet> scunizi, I saw nothing about that when I did the Ubuntu install.
[16:35] <country0129> I'm hooked up wireless on this laptop and two other netbooks.  The router worked just fine for WindowsMe.  Through USB.
[16:36] <mikejet> information != data
[16:36] <scunizi> mikejet: you wouldn't.. ubuntu can't put those codecs in default because of their licensing
[16:36] <happylol> not a lolcat dude
[16:36] <RobLikesBrunch> BlueEagle ganymede: Ah. Right.
[16:36] <happylol> just see that once
[16:36] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, when you mount via fstab, you want the source directory to already exist
[16:36] <country0129> And I've not found a driver either for this version of Ubuntu.
[16:36] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: How do I unmount it?
[16:36] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, i meant, the target directory
[16:36] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Or, how do I undo my /dev/sda1/ nosense?
[16:37] <khensthoth> country0129: Yea, it's a little difficult when it comes to driver issues in Linux.
[16:37] <spiderworm> does anyone know of a way to get the latest version of /etc/init.d/lirc ???  i tried uninstalling lirc and then reinstalling it, but that didnt do it
[16:37] <mikejet> Why is totem installed by default when totem is broken by default.
[16:37] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, to unmount the NTFS thing, you can use sudo umount /media/media, or sudo umount /dev/sda1, or just umount /media/media as a user might work
[16:37] <country0129> My big problem is I'm a Linux newby.  Fairly good with Windoze and Dos, but really haven't much of a clue in Linux.
[16:37] <Billiard> mikejet: totem is not broken by default
[16:37] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, and as for /dev/sda1 not being there anymore...i don't know...it shouldn't disappear
[16:37] <kostkon> mikejet, because it can't play your wmv doesnt mean it's broken
[16:37] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, is /dev/sda there?
[16:37] <exoo> BlueEagle, i looked it up its a Inel Chipset
[16:37] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Okay..that works.
[16:37] <scunizi> mikejet: I've been reinstalling a winxp machine for a neighbor.. I'm going on 3 hrs at this point and still not done doing all the updates prior to actually installing any programs.. so looking for codecs for ubuntu or another linux is minor by comparrison.. at least for me.
[16:37] <kostkon> mikejet, add the necessaru codecs and it will play wmvs
[16:37] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Nope...but it said it unmounteded
[16:38] <Billiard> spiderworm: try purging it when you uninstall ?
[16:38] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: and with /media/media it worked perfectly :D
[16:38] <ericdb> I just got a replacement laptop, same hardware, because of a physical flaw in the first one.  What's the best way to replicate my Ubuntu install to the new laptop?  I don't want to swap hard drives because the new one has Win 7, and I'd rather screw with Ubuntu than with upgrading Vista->7.
[16:38] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, so everything is fine and there are no remaining problems?
[16:38] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Yup :D
[16:38] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, cool
[16:38] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Thanks.
[16:38] <kostkon> mikejet, but you are complaining all the time, instead of reading the documentation
[16:38] <spiderworm> Billiard, wont that purge all my config files, including the ones i want to keep?  is there a way to just purge the one file?
[16:38] <khensthoth> country0129: Well, usually Linux comes with all the drivers, and installing extra drivers usually means getting down and dirty with lots of command line, except you are installing pre-packaged drivers.
[16:38] <erUSUL> ericdb: copy the paritions over with pasrtimage ? (does not support ext4 though) then install grub in the mbr
[16:38] <country0129> Window7 is painless.  First OS that they've put out since 95 that actually works well.
[16:39] <mikejet> kostkon, Do you have a link to "The Documentation" ?
[16:39] <Billiard> spiderworm: move it somewhere else, then install maybe
[16:39] <blunder> cli FTW!
[16:39] <ericdb> erUSUL: ext4 is the case, though, so that's out.
[16:40] <kostkon> mikejet, help.ubuntu.com. for codecs
[16:40] <country0129> Khensthoth, I'm probably going to install an NIC, but I'm also going to get a new 'puter in a few months; so I don't want to invest a lot of money or time on this dinosaur.
[16:40] <blunder> real quick guys i have a vi question (omg my brain my be rotting to have ask)

[16:40] <kostkon> !restricted | mikejet
[16:40] <country0129> Only has a 10Gb hard drive.
[16:40] <spiderworm> Billiard, if i purge, it will purge all my user config files as well, such as ~/.lircrc and ~/.lirc/*, right?  or will it just purge /etc/lirc/* and /etc/init.d/lirc files?
[16:40] <kostkon> !codecs | mikejet
[16:40] <erUSUL> ericdb: then use dd ? to replicate the partitions
[16:40] <kostkon> damn
[16:40] <Billiard> ericdb: copy home directory to flash drive, and just do a fresh install maybe?
[16:40] <Hans_Henrik> how many releases ago is Feisty?
[16:41] <Billiard> spiderworm: purge wont remove things in ~/
[16:41] <mikejet> "Please use free formats if you can" Gee, that's helpful.
[16:41] <jrib> Hans_Henrik: how many letters from F to K?
[16:41] <spiderworm> thank you Billiard, yay!
[16:41] <blunder> what is the coommand to insert a char 80 times

[16:42] <Billiard> Tech33: dvd::rip ?
[16:42] <kostkon> Tech33, handbrake
[16:42] <toffan> hi all
[16:42] <CShadowRun> Tech33, it's not GUI but i like dvdbackup, all you have to do is type dvdbackup -M and off it goes
[16:42] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Completely unrelated, but how can I get alsamixer to tell me all my devices?
[16:42] <blunder> fantastic
[16:43] <CShadowRun> i never managed to get handbrake or dvd::rip to work
[16:43] <toffan> how to install a .tar.bz2 file
[16:43] <Billiard> sirkikiman: what gfx card?
[16:43] <sirkikiman> nvida
[16:43] <Tech33> thank you, I'll check those out
[16:43] <CShadowRun> toffan: you don't install a .tar.bz2 file, it's an archive. Like a zip file
[16:43] <Billiard> sirkikiman: install the nvidia drivers from the package manager?
[16:43] <VCoolio> toffan: it's an archive, extract it than see what type of files are in it and search for a README
[16:43] <sirkikiman> tea
[16:43] <sirkikiman> yea
[16:43] <country0129> Thanks, Folks for trying to help me with this.  Guess I'll get an NIC card.
[16:43] <toffan> VCoolio: okay
[16:43] <xae8koo> There was a guy here yesterday that said he could help me with spotify and ubuntu 9.10
[16:43] <Billiard> sirkikiman: can you set the res from nvidia-settings ?
[16:43] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, aplay -l
[16:44] <sirkikiman> yea but its the same
[16:44] <MkS1992> i get an error when i want to get ti my place with other computer that has windows 7
[16:44] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Aha. Thanks.
[16:44] <kostkon> RobLikesBrunch, alsamixer -Dhw
[16:44] <kostkon> RobLikesBrunch, ah, your volumes or your devices?
[16:44] <Billiard> sirkikiman: try setting the res to anything, then hit save xconfig in nvidia-settings, then manually edit the res it saved in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[16:44] <jim234> windows 7 ?
[16:44] <RobLikesBrunch> kostkon: Devices, had to change an output.
[16:44] <shine1> if I use "connect to server" via ssh to mount remote folders and name it as "abc", what's the path of this directory so that I can "cd" in from terminal?
[16:44] <kostkon> RobLikesBrunch, ok
[16:44] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: New problem! alsactl: get_control:249: Cannot read control '2,0,0,Mic Capture Volume,0': Invalid argument
[16:44] <Billiard> MkS1992: the error?
[16:45] <toffan> VCoolio: there is no readme file
[16:45] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Sorry, I know I'm incredibly bothersome.
[16:45] <erUSUL> shine1: they mount under ~/.gvfs/
[16:45] <erUSUL> !gvfs
[16:45] <toffan> i have downloaded FIleZilla <IP_ADDRESS>
[16:45] <erUSUL> !search gvfs
[16:45] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, that's totally beyond me. in general, you should try googling for the entire errror message
[16:45] <VCoolio> toffan: what are you installing; what kind of files are in there? is there a autogen.sh
[16:45] <iceroot_> toffan: why not using repo-version?
[16:45] <sirkikiman> i can set it to auto not anything though
[16:45] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Okay, thanks.
[16:45] <jrib> CShadowRun: check out vobcopy (I also used to use dvdbackup)
[16:46] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, but the only result for that error you describes is about gentoo shutting down or something
[16:46] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: I saw. I'll ask on the forums.
[16:46] <toffan> iceroot_: where to get that?
[16:46] <andre_pl> anyone know how to make a wireless connection on boot up?
[16:46] <iceroot_> toffan: sudo apt-get install filezilla
[16:46] <shine1> thanks, I found it under ~/.gvfs/
[16:46] <Levi`> Next question, i have no sound :(
[16:47] <iceroot_> Levi`: that is not a question
[16:47] <ganymede> RobLikesBrunch, you might have better luck asking the entire channel though, i think maybe people ignore questions that are directed at someone specifically, so someone in the channel might know but didn't bother to ansewr since it was directed at me
[16:47] <Levi`> i have a stream playing on amarok and do not have any audio coming out of my speakers
[16:47] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Okay :3
[16:47] <VCoolio> toffan: version <IP_ADDRESS> is in the universe repo
[16:47] <Billiard> andre_pl: you could put a script in rc.local for iwconfig to connect to your wireless
[16:47] <forro> i know the anser
[16:47] <MkS1992> error says that path does not exist
[16:48] <RobLikesBrunch> I'm getting the following error after running alsactl store:  alsactl: get_control:249: Cannot read control '2,0,0,Mic Capture Volume,0': Invalid argument
[16:48] <Pirate_Hunter> Levi`:  have installed alsa-utils and pulse-audio (optional)
[16:48] <Billiard> MkS1992: when you try to access your windows7 drive from the places menu?
[16:48] <toffan> iceroot_: you are cool its working thanks. also thanks to VCoolio
[16:48] <Levi`> Pirate_Hunter, pulse audio yes, alsa-utils no.
[16:48] <Pirate_Hunter> !sound | Levi`
[16:48] <andre_pl> Billiard: thanks I'll look into it.
[16:48] <iceroot_> toffan: always use the repos instead of self downloaded software
[16:48] <Pirate_Hunter> Levi`: install alsa-utils and read that link from ubottu
[16:49] <iceroot_> toffan: you can search for a program with   apt-cache search "something-to-search-for"

[16:49] <kostkon> Levi`, generally, do oyu have sound on your system?
[16:50] <Levi`> kostkon, fresh install of ubuntu.
[16:50] <Billiard> sirkikiman: lol you can use tab to autocomplete my name, delete your xorg.conf  then run  sudo nvidia-xconfig, then try the steps i told you before again
[16:50] <RobLikesBrunch> ganymede: Oh well. Forums it is. Thanks for all your help, though.
[16:50] <kostkon> Levi`, and?
[16:50] <kostkon> Levi`, do you get sound from your apps, except amarok that is
[16:50] <Levi`> Pirate_Hunter, i have tried to install alsa-utils using the KPackageKit, and it gives me an X meaning i already have it?
[16:50] <Levi`> kostkon, no i do not.

[16:52] <iceroot_> Diyer1: sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5
[16:53] <Diyer1> ok. thanks
[16:53] <iceroot_> Diyer1: dont wonder, its not called firefox but that is what you want

[16:56] <shakall691> how to compile a kernel in karmic
[16:56] <Billiard> shine1: do you really need to change it? you could make a symlink for it maybe
[16:56] <anilkrd> ubottu have you got my question
[16:57] <jrib> !kernel > shakall691
[16:57] <brando753> is there any speech  to text software for ubuntu, i really need it since i have carpal tunnel
[16:57] <Billiard> shakall691: if you dont know how to compile a kernel you probably dont need to compile a kernel
[16:57] <alokito> iceroot_: whats the frontend of lm-sensors in kubuntu?
[16:57] <Diyer1> iceroot_: thanks i have it installed and working.
[16:57] <Xserver> why does domain.com gets resolved and www.domain.com isn't ?
[16:58] <shakall691> ty
[16:58] <kostkon> brando753, orca, it's preinstalled. check your accessibility prefs on ubuntu
[16:58] <shine1> to Billiard, I don't really need to change it, just want to easily access files in the remote folder, the long name seems annoying, especially after I mount multiple servers, :-(
[16:58] <BlueEagle> alokito: `aptitude search sensors` lists ksensors as a likely alternative.
[16:58] <brando753> kostkon: how would i use orca
[16:58] <kostkon> brando753, ah, speech to text? no
[16:59] <kurby> does anyone have sup mail client running on ubuntu?
[16:59] <alokito> ok

[16:59] <Xserver> anyone on bind9 ?

[17:06] <hybr1der> hi, i recently did an upgrade from ubuntu 9.04 to 9.10 and all my samba configs stopped working, have there been any radical changes betweens those version that i need to change to get it working again, (my windows machines can't connect, it says that the password or username is wrong even though they are correct)?
[17:06] <unwedged85> brando753, wait, fesitval is text to speech. sry
[17:06] <Parsi_> Billiard: i shoul logout/login again?
[17:06] <sirkikiman> Billiard: when you told me to set the res to anything, then hit save xconfig in nvidia-settings, then manually edit the res it saved in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[17:07] <sirkikiman> Billiard: when you told me to set the res to anything, then hit save xconfig in nvidia-settings, then manually edit the res it saved in /etc/X11/xorg.conf   it wont let me save and i dont know what to  edit
[17:07] <Billiard> sirkikiman: that is like 3 steps which part you stuck on?

[17:07] <Billiard> sirkikiman: try sudo nvidia-settings  maybe
[17:08] <Parsi_> I installed next default for grub, but when i run it nothing shown
[17:08] <khensthoth> sharok: Try reinstalling grub. Follow the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub
[17:08] <Billiard> Parsi_: you might have to logout login yeah for nm to look at that file
[17:08] <VCoolio> could it be that gdm-control doesn't work properly with the new gdm? I always used "gdm-control --reboot && enlightenment_remote -exit" but since karmic I only get login screen, no reboot or shutdown
[17:08] <Billiard> Parsi_: if it still doesnt work you might have to comment out that 2nd to last line as well, sorry i dont remember if thats needed
[17:09] <Parsi_> Billiard: ok
[17:09] <sirkikiman> Billiard: i hit save then nothing came up so now what do i do
[17:09] <Billiard> sirkikiman: close nv-settings   gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[17:10] <Billiard> sirkikiman: find the resolution line change it and save it
[17:10] <khensthoth> brando753: Speech recognition and speech-to-text isn't as developed in Linux as it is in Windows. Try referring to http://simon-listens.org/index.php?id=122&L=1 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_speech_recognition_software
[17:10] <Billiard> sharok: codes are crap?
