[11:01] <Satanaa> ikonia, it doesnt
[11:01] <Mr_Placid> doesnt matter if I set it to 60 minutes it's always 10 minutes
[11:01] <auronandace> Satanaa: ok, sorry
[11:01] <Satanaa> but i can hear it
[11:02] <ikonia> Satanaa: sounds like it's not picking up the event, worth logging a bug against it
[11:02] <Satanaa> i can hear that the desktops works
[11:02] <Satanaa> the monitor is just turned off
[11:02] <ikonia> Satanaa: oooh really
[11:02] <ikonia> Satanaa: what video card do you have ?
[11:02] <Satanaa> yea
[11:02] <Satanaa> intel 950
[11:02] <Mr_Placid> what a butthole who is rakkesh
[11:02] <Satanaa> works in ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04
[11:03] <ikonia> Satanaa: ok - I have a test for you, it's not nice.
[11:03] <Satanaa> this issue is only in 11.10
[11:03]  * auronandace hugs ikonia: thanks!
[11:03] <ikonia> Satanaa: can you change your xorg driver to "vesa"
[11:03] <Satanaa> ikonia, do i dare?
[11:03] <ikonia> Satanaa: it will make your desktop look rubbish in terms of effects, but see if it happens there too
[11:03] <Satanaa> ok
[11:04] <Danielpk> Is possible to resize a ext4 partition? i have 97Gb free on hard disk and want to resize /dev/sda1. I trying with DiskUtility of live cd but cant figure out how to do it. Any tip?
[11:04] <ikonia> Satanaa: it's not a good solution, but to me, it's a worthwhile test to eleminate some things
[11:04] <Satanaa> yea
[11:05] <auronandace> Danielpk: the partition you are resizing can't be mounted
[11:05] <Satanaa> i just wonder why so many people have this issue, and none knows how to fix it hehe
[11:05] <auronandace> Danielpk: to make sure of this, you could use a livecd
[11:05] <Danielpk> auronandace: it isnt mounted.. im with live cd.
[11:05] <kriss_> Hmm.. Odd. I installed ubuntu 11.10. then i installed gnome-shell and removed unity.. then suddenly my ubuntu is edubuntu ?? sure im planing on deploying it on a school with domain and stuff but how did it become edubuntu ?
[11:05] <toumbo> hey sorry about leaving before!can anyone help me to repair my unity I'm on gnome shell now
[11:05] <auronandace> Danielpk: ok, can you use gparted?
[11:06] <Danielpk> auronandace: sure i can, but i cant figure out how to do it there.. so i booted live cd xD
[11:06] <PintSize> after upgrading my ubuntu to 11.10 my grub does no longer show my debian... my boot partition is still there. any suggestions what i could do?
[11:06] <Satanaa> PintSize,  sudo update-grub
[11:07] <auronandace> Danielpk: what are you having trouble figuring out?
[11:07] <PintSize> tried that
[11:07] <Danielpk> auronandace: With gparter when i select the partition it dont allow to resize more than actual partition size.
[11:07] <PintSize> did not change anything
[11:07] <antismap> PintSize: did you try Boot-Repair ?
[11:08] <PintSize> i tried rescatux
[11:08] <auronandace> Danielpk: can you show a screenshot?
[11:08] <negueba> hey guys, how do i start up my ubuntu 11.10 in text mode????
[11:08] <Danielpk> auronandace: sure.. hold a second.. i will boot with Gparter.
[11:09] <iceroot> !nox | negueba
[11:09] <AdhamSabry> Umm, what is the command to mount a windows drive?
[11:09] <iceroot> AdhamSabry: mount
 thanks man
[11:10] <kriss_> anyone here good with adding network printer to ubuntu ?? im having a bit of a problem
[11:10] <hours> AdhamSabry, if it's ubuntu, it'll detect your drives, so you can just go to Places and access it from there. Was it helpful?
[11:10] <iceroot> !details | kriss_
[11:10] <AdhamSabry> I know, but I need to create a short cut by myself
[11:11] <iceroot> AdhamSabry: sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdX1 /path/to/mount
[11:11] <iceroot> AdhamSabry: replace sdX1 and /path/to/mount
[11:11] <lucky105> hi
[11:11] <negueba> ubottu thanks
[11:11] <keda87> hi all
[11:11] <hours> as sudo, mkdir in /mnt/sda* - so the number of your partition
[11:11] <AdhamSabry> thanks iceroot
[11:11] <AdhamSabry> :-)
[11:11] <hours> mount /dev/sda* /mnt/sda*
[11:11] <kriss_> iceroot yeah ok its ubuntu 11.10 with gnome classic - when im running the add printer app in gnome it scans for network printers and finds alot. however it just tells me what type and model it finds. i need somthing like an IP or hostname or somthing.. Since we have like 10 printers of the same type so i need to know which one im adding
[11:12] <hours> any ideas about viewing a source code of a widget under superkaramba?
[11:13] <iceroot> hours: is the widget in the repos?
[11:13] <Danielpk> auronandace: here: http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/3705/capturadetela20111027s0.png
[11:13] <iceroot> kriss_: hm sorry dont know the gui, so i dont know if there is an option to show that kind of informations
[11:13] <lucky105> my nvidia xserver settings show max color depth 24  while windows has 32 ???
[11:13] <auronandace> Danielpk: there is no space next to the partition to resize it into
[11:14] <Danielpk> auronandace: so i cant do that?
[11:14] <kriss_> iceroot well any way to add a network printer would be nice.. at least in windows i can just type in the IP in a window and it will show the printer ready to add..
[11:14] <auronandace> Danielpk: you'd have to move the extended partition first
[11:15] <iceroot> !cups | kriss_
[11:15] <hours> iceroot, I don't actually know, I've installed superkaramba, opened it and installed the clock widget from it's options.
[11:15] <iceroot> kriss_: last link
[11:15] <kriss_> iceroot thanks.
[11:15] <auronandace> Danielpk: why do you have an extended partition with just a swap partition in it?
[11:15] <keda87> i'm installing ubunntu maverick on my win7 with wubi, i'm choosed 10GB size, and succesfully installed, but can i increase ubuntu space?? cz free 2GB rite now
[11:15] <kriss_> iceroot uhmm actually its more the other way around.. the printer is connected to a windows AD server (via network).
[11:15] <Danielpk> auronandace: humm i dont know, was other person who installed.
[11:16] <iceroot> hours: if the widget is downloaded from somewhere else i dont know how to get the source-code but on there website there should be the code
[11:16] <Danielpk> auronandace: how i can move the partition?
[11:16] <hours> iceroot, good tip, thanks.
[11:16] <iceroot> kriss_: hm, then samba with cups should be correct i guess
[11:16] <iceroot> !samba | kriss_
[11:17] <iceroot> hm not the ones i hoped for
[11:17] <auronandace> Danielpk: since its just swap, you can delete it and make a new one at the other end of the disk (delete the extended partition too)
[11:17] <blaa> how can I add a custom icon to launcher in 10.10?
[11:17] <kriss_> iceroot Im already having the computer connected to the domain via likewise-open
[11:18] <haylo-bot_> blaa just drag it there
[11:18] <AdhamSabry> how can I create .desktop file?
[11:19] <blaa> haylo-bot_ I can't drag a Zend Studio icon there, it is an java executable
[11:19] <blaa> a java*
[11:19] <kriss_> iceroot isnt there just a way to see more info about a printer before adding it ?? such as IP and stuff
[11:19] <killswitchguy> hi guys, is there any alternative to ffmpeg
[11:19] <killswitchguy> i need a convertor to convert file for my ipod
[11:19] <Sidewinder1> DeVdDe?
[11:20] <Sidewinder1> Opps, DeVeDe?
[11:20] <iceroot> kriss_: normally there should be "rigth click - properties"
[11:20] <Sidewinder1> Not sure if it converts, though, I've never used it.
[11:21] <killswitchguy> ok i will try
[11:21] <kriss_> iceroot there isnt. its too simple in the printer add in gnome3 (classic mode) you can add.. Heck even the IP shows localhost..
[11:21] <iceroot> kriss_: maybe because the printer is already connected with your cups? and cups is running on localhost
[11:22] <iceroot> kriss_: have a look at http://localhost:631
[11:22] <Sidewinder1> killswitchguy, You might have a look here: http://blogcritics.org/scitech/article/making-dvds-with-devede-in-linux/
[11:22] <iceroot> kriss_: just an idea
[11:22] <killswitchguy> thanks, sidewinder
[11:22] <slacker-> Hi, I'm a little confused with this unity/gnome thing on oneiric. I'm getting the unity-greeter, which logs me on to my xubuntu session. Which file do I have to modify to re-enable the autologin?
[11:23] <Satanaa> ikonia, i dont know why, but i have a feeling its a pm-untils issue
[11:23] <Sidewinder1> :D
[11:24] <kriss_> iceroot thanks im checking it out.
[11:24] <Charlos> Hello all
[11:25] <kriss_> iceroot hmm when i attempt to add a printer it asks for username and password. what should i type in there ? just an account having root access ?
[11:27] <pipalo> Howdy !
[11:28] <Satanaa> hmm is there anything i can run to check for ubuntu errors?
[11:28] <hours> iceroot, here's what I did: I downloaded a clock file .skz and tryed to open it with gedit. It returned a "check if you're not trying to open a binary file". Nano showed some wiered signs... any ideas?
[11:28] <pipalo> Not much a ubuntu question, but how do I mute a makefile ?
[11:28] <Satanaa> hours, its a bin
[11:28] <kriss_> iceroot thanks.. that worked.. gotta type in the local users credencials though but it works
[11:28] <Satanaa> its like trying to open a .exe in notepad
[11:28] <hours> meaning?
[11:29] <hours> (I'm eager to learn)
[11:29] <Satanaa> what i said last hehe
[11:29] <hours> oh, ok ...
[11:29] <hours> so the question remains open .....
[11:29] <Satanaa> a binary file is a source ( text ) that has been compiled :)
[11:29] <Charlos> please to help me... how to make install for oovoo.exe  ????
[11:29] <pipalo> Where can I get help about Makfile/bash-script ?
[11:30] <Charlos> in ubuntu 9.10
[11:30] <Satanaa> pipalo, #bash ?
[11:30] <pipalo> I want to know how can I mute a makefile, using @ for each line is tedious.
[11:30] <hours> Satanaa, yup, and that's what I wanna view....
[11:30] <Satanaa> you cant view a bin
[11:30] <pipalo> Cheers Satanaa, I will have a look
[11:30] <Satanaa> its just signs
[11:30] <Satanaa> unless you rev it
[11:31] <hours> rev it?
[11:31] <Satanaa> something you cant do
[11:31] <Satanaa> you need the source
[11:31] <iceroot> hours: ask the author for the source-code, its not in that file
[11:31] <iceroot> hours: check the licence if the author must provide the sourcecode (e.g. gpl)
[11:31] <auronandace> Charlos: 9.10 is no longer supported, and .exe are run on windows, not linux (you could try wine, but it is better to find a native alternative)
[11:32] <hours> Satanna, indeed, but it's even hard to find it on the internet.
[11:32] <Satanaa> hours, its that or nothing
[11:32] <Satanaa> or you can try open it in a hex editor
[11:32] <Charlos> install wine  in Ubuntu but why slow ?
[11:33] <hours> ok. Where can I find the licence?
[11:33] <Satanaa> Charlos, cuz its a windows api

[11:44] <Slartibart> How come a lot of times when I switch between windows the target window refuses to be focused? I can't type anything in it but have to tab around or switch to some other workspace before getting back to the window, and then *hopefully* it accepts input. Sometimes I have to do this more than once to make it work.
[11:44] <Danielpk> auronandace: Thx for your help.. it worked fine =)
[11:44] <auronandace> Danielpk: excellent, well done :)
[11:45] <Charlos> so...
[11:45] <Charlos> you can help me for new install but i want to explication... so you can try me on teamviewer, ok ?
[11:46] <yrg> Slartibart, same here - usually happens after a window was moved from another workspace
[11:46] <Slartibart> yrg: Do you know why it happens?
[11:46] <yrg> not quite as of yet
[11:47] <yrg> it is good to know that it is not just me, though
[11:47] <Slartibart> sigh =[
[11:47] <Slartibart> Same here ^^
[11:47] <yrg> let me search for the gnome bug tracker, they might have a workaround there
[11:49] <alexluya> hi
[11:49] <Srirangan> hi
[11:50] <Charlos> auronandace you can try my pc on teamviewer for you can install on my pc  ?
[11:50] <Charlos> Because I want see
[11:50] <Srirangan> has anyone tried a System76 (http://www.system76.com/) made for ubuntu laptop?
[11:50] <Slartibart> yrg: That would be nice. I don't know how to search there, but good luck anyways.
[11:50] <Srirangan> looking for reviews..
[11:51] <auronandace> Charlos: install what on your pc?
[11:51] <yrg> Slartibart, you could try asking #gnome in here, it does probably appear to be an issue not specific to ubuntu
[11:51] <Charlos> for new install partition
[11:51] <Satanaa> Srirangan, its just a laptop with hardware supported by linux
[11:51] <auronandace> !install | Charlos
[11:51] <Charlos> offf
[11:52] <Charlos> !automate
[11:52] <Srirangan> Satanaa, ithat's good :) how is the quality of the hardware, the build, design aesthetics ?
[11:52] <rabbi1> how to arrange all the gimp windows ?
[11:52] <Satanaa> Srirangan, its all good, the "Case" around the monitor just looks strange tho
[11:53] <Satanaa> so much waste space
[11:53] <Srirangan> Satanaa, forgive me for being ignorant, but what "case" ?
[11:53] <Charlos> but how to make new partition...  ????
[11:53] <yrg> rabbi1, 'window' menu lets you dock some of them
[11:53] <Satanaa> so everything has a thumbs up, and design thumbs down

[12:31] <Polah> AdhamSabry, yeah, just  reinstall GRUB without the GNOME configuration for how it looks added on
[12:31] <AdhamSabry> how Polah?
[12:31] <oliverp> I've just installed ubuntu server 10.10 on a 4GB sd-card. Current disk usage is 995MB (~25%). I'm thinking about installing the ubuntu-desktop package, but google says the minimum requirements are 16GB HDD. Is that true? Or will ubuntu-desktop fit within the remaining 3GB?
[12:32] <BluesKaj> ok iceroot , np ...happens to me all the time :)
[12:33] <Polah> AdhamSabry, install-grub /device/name  will reinstall it on the device you specify, but that might not remove the GNOME style on it. Try it with just that and then run update-grub and reboot, see if it goes to the default look. If not, back up and remove your /boot/ directory then re-run install-grub /dev/name and update-grub
[12:33] <iceroot> BluesKaj: :)
[12:33] <Polah> AdhamSabry, oh, my bad. That should be grub-install, not install-grub
[12:33] <Aldus> Hi. Is there any way to create a symlink to a ssh remote file ?
[12:34] <iceroot> Aldus: no
[12:34] <iceroot> Aldus: why you need something like that?
[12:34] <Aldus> iceroot, thanks. To quick-edit it in vim
[12:34] <AdhamSabry> I noted, what you told me
[12:34] <AdhamSabry> I will try it after installing something
[12:34] <AdhamSabry> thank you Polah
[12:35] <lithpr> how do i remove an application AND it's config files?
[12:35] <lithpr> i forget the apt-? magic
[12:35] <crizzy> purge
[12:36] <lithpr> ty
[12:36] <iceroot> Aldus: ssh vim file
[12:36] <crizzy> apt-get --purge remove <package>
[12:36] <iceroot> Aldus: ssh user@host vim file
[12:36] <Aldus> iceroot, no way to browse through files this way...
[12:37] <iceroot> Aldus: sure
[12:37] <iceroot> Aldus: with vim, it has a filebrowser
[12:37] <Aldus> iceroot, interesting, i'll try it :) thanks
[12:37] <lithpr> ty crizzy
[12:38] <iceroot> Aldus: vim has everything you need. have a look at #vim
[12:38] <Aldus> iceroot, i'm already there :) learning curve is quite high

[12:48] <zetui> hello anyone there ?
[12:48] <Wilczek> zetui: Hi
[12:48] <zetui> i don't even know what that mean ?
[12:48] <zetui> i try to install sun-java5-bin on ubuntu lucid this is what i got as error :
[12:48] <Halabund> iceroot, Polah, alright, let me try then
[12:48] <zetui> E: Aucun paquet ne correspond au paquet sun-java5-bin

[12:48] <zetui> what that it mean ?
[12:49] <jatt> it's french
[12:49] <zetui> okay what that it means ?
[12:50] <Evilkiss> HI
[12:50] <ActionParsnip> zetui: sun java is no longer packaged
[12:50] <Evilkiss> Need help with XMBC
[12:50] <ActionParsnip> zetui: you need to manually install it
[12:50] <SwedeMike> zetui: if you use english locase people might be able to help you. LANUAGE=en <command>
[12:50] <Evilkiss> Use somebody that?
[12:50] <ActionParsnip> !xbmc
[12:50] <SwedeMike> Evilkiss: go to #xbmc-linux instead
[12:50] <ActionParsnip> !find xbmc
[12:50] <Evilkiss> thanks
[12:51] <Wilczek> zetui: Try to install using Synaptic, but first add apt repository ppa:ferramroberto/java
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> Wilczek: that will violate the java license
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> Wilczek: Oracle don't want their Java product packaging
[12:52] <zetui> LANUAGE=en apt-get install sun-java5-bin
[12:52] <zetui> this one gives the same output
[12:53] <zetui> E: Aucun paquet ne correspond au paquet sun-java5-bin
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> zetui: you need to go to www.java.com and download the .bin mark it as executable and run it (copy to /opt first)
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> zetui: then symlink the plugin file to your browser's plugins folder
[12:54] <zetui> java its nothing to do with browser
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> zetui: it can be a browser plugin...
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> zetui: so, yes it can
[12:57] <zetui> ActionParsnip:  listen in my case
[12:57] <zetui> there is nothing to do with browser
[12:57] <zetui> my question is simply why i can't install sun-java5-bin from apt ?
[12:58] <Snowie> ok. so this is officially my worst ubuntu install experience ever. finally decided to ditch win7 and just install ubuntu... purple screen of death. know how to get arround psod to at least boot, but now, saned fails to start. been googling a good 2 hours. what is going wrong here
[12:58] <iceroot> zetui: because its not allowed anymore to provide that package
[12:58] <obert-> mm i cannot halt the system: it'll remains in the terminal window without shutdown all
[12:58] <iceroot> zetui: you have to download directly from oracle or use a download and install script
[12:58] <iceroot> zetui: which is imo not in a package until now
[12:58] <ActionParsnip> zetui: no, its not packaged anymore
[12:59] <iceroot> zetui: there is only openjdk
[12:59] <obert-> unmount: /run/lock not unmounted   *Will now halt -- System halted.  but then no shutdown happens
[13:00] <obert-> seems that killall is gone bad (?)
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> zetui: I told you it wasn't packaged literally 10 mins ago
[13:00] <zetui> http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=56690
[13:00] <Snowie> obert-: i believe HALT and SHUTDOWN are 2 very different states. google that perhaps
[13:00] <zetui> so the best way if i get
[13:01] <zetui> i have to download it from here : http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=56690 and
[13:01] <bencc> how can I check the return code of a script/command?
[13:01] <zetui> and run the script ?
[13:01] <iceroot> bencc: #bash
[13:01] <llutz> bencc: echo $?
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> zetui: thats the only way to get sun java
[13:01] <obert-> Snowie: i dunno how to explain :) i made sudo halt in the shell, and the machine is not shutdowning
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> zetui: yes, copy it to /opt  and run it using sudo
[13:01] <zetui> ok perfect let me check
[13:02] <iceroot> obert-: sounds like acpi (or what it is called) is not running the poweroff-function
[13:02] <ActionParsnip> zetui: so is this to do with a browser?
[13:02] <Snowie> obert-: sudo shutdown now
[13:02] <guampa> join #ubuntu-es
[13:02] <ActionParsnip> zetui: are you wanting a java plugin for firefox?
[13:02] <obert-> Snowie: no i cannot type in this window
[13:02] <zetui> no there is nothing to do with browser
[13:03] <zetui> i try to setup a stream server
[13:03] <iceroot> zetui: why not using openjdk?
[13:03] <zetui> and the package is required for
[13:03] <obert-> Snowie: it is the window that appears when you halted the system:) the list of things that are killed correctly or failed
[13:03] <obert-> sorry eh
[13:03] <iceroot> zetui: ah ok its a dependency to sun-java6-jdk
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> zetui: ahhh, its still the same package, you jut need to setup the java source to be that folder
[13:03] <zetui> i don't know if there is a difference between openjdk and java ?
[13:03] <Snowie> obert-: what are you typing to make that happen?
[13:04] <ph4nt0m_> hi can someone help with this error im trying to remove shorewall
[13:04] <ph4nt0m_> E: shorewall: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
[13:04] <meta-coder> What is the best ident server available for Oneiric?
[13:04] <ph4nt0m_> pls
[13:04] <iceroot> zetui: the difference is that openjdk is free and opensource, sun-java is bad from a bad company and not free
[13:04] <obert-> Snowie: nothing. i'd typed during the session sudo halt and then waiting that the system will be shutdowned.
[13:04] <iceroot> zetui: if you have the chance use openjdk instead of oracle/sun-java
[13:05] <iceroot> meta-coder: the one you like most
[13:05] <Snowie> obert-: sudo halt and sudo shutdown are different
[13:05] <Snowie> let me try this
[13:05] <Snowie> !halt
[13:05] <Snowie> !shutdown
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> meta-coder: there is no single best software fr anything in any OS
[13:05] <meta-coder> iceroot, oidentd didn't work..
[13:05] <antismap> openjdk is much slower
[13:05] <Snowie> ! hatl
[13:05] <obert-> Snowie: i always used halt to shutdown the pc
[13:05] <iceroot> antismap: no
[13:05] <ansonjack> anyone could help me to install java
[13:05] <ansonjack> i've got problems
[13:05] <antismap> yes it is !
[13:05] <proudy3> sun java or openJDK?
[13:06] <obert-> Snowie: 'stop the machine, halt'
[13:06] <ansonjack> sun java
[13:06] <Snowie> obert-: fair enough, then im not sure.
[13:06] <antismap> openjdk is much slower
[13:06] <obert-> hehe
[13:06] <ActionParsnip> ansonjack: grab this http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=56690
[13:06] <ShawnRisk> how do I change the max windows when programs start to a smaller window when programs start in Ubuntu 11.10?
[13:06] <iceroot> antismap: no and now lets stop that here
[13:06] <ph4nt0m_> lol you were in there quicker than me proudy3 :D
[13:06] <meta-coder> ActionParsnip, what ident server from those available for Oneiric is more popular?
[13:06] <obert-> Snowie: thanks the same:)
[13:06] <proudy3> :P
[13:06] <ActionParsnip> ansonjack: copy it to /opt and mark it as executable, then run it
[13:06] <antismap> with my eee pc i didn't understand why Jdownloader was so slow.. changing to sun java fixed the problem
[13:06] <ActionParsnip> meta-coder: no idea, why is popular a thing?
[13:07] <ActionParsnip> meta-coder: if arora was 'more popular' than firefox, would you switch browser?
[13:07] <iceroot> meta-coder: http://popcon.ubuntu.com
[13:07] <proudy3> uh.. need help also. ive got a i3-2310 and intel HD3000 (thinkpad x220) - using ubuntu 11.10 (xubuntu design) - trying 2 play minecraft, which runs smoothly bu Ive got some rly annoying graphic bugs :(
[13:07] <proudy3> http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/51/bildschirmfotoam2011102.png/
[13:07] <iceroot> antismap: and because of that you say that openjdk is slower then sun-java.
[13:07] <iceroot> antismap: because of one app
[13:07] <meta-coder> ActionParsnip, :) just trying know about the available identd server choices..
[13:08] <antismap> no several apps actually
[13:08] <antismap> with the eee pc you feel directly the difference
[13:08] <proudy3> anyone can help me? :p
[13:08] <antismap> try with an old computer you'll see
[13:08] <iceroot> antismap: working fine here on eeepc 901
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> ansonjack: you can then symlink the plugin file to your browser's plugins folder
[13:08] <antismap> did you try with sun java also ?
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> antismap: I use fatrat, works well
[13:08] <cypha> how can I hibernate?
[13:08] <iceroot> antismap: biggest difference is that i am using free software, no other difference noticed here
[13:09] <antismap> ah on eclipse also it helped a lot
[13:09] <Halabund> I tried using ubuntu for a while again, but something serious comes up every time.  Right now I was browsing some PDFs and started reading one using the builtin viewer, all using the keyboard.   Now I find that the touchpad is completely non-functional, and I cannot move the mouse pointer.  How do I get out of such glitches?
[13:09] <Snowie> ok, so it looks like purple screen of death and saned errors might be caused by bad drivers. how can i install radeon 97XX drivers from CLI???
[13:10] <serhat_> -
[13:10] <antismap> i mean ok maybe the particular version of openjdk that i had at this time sucked, who knows
[13:10] <Halabund> As I'm writing now, it's impossible to move the mouse.
[13:10] <iceroot> !ati | Snowie
[13:11] <Snowie> iceroot: thanks mate
[13:11] <proudy3> -
[13:11] <ph4nt0m_> cd etc
[13:11] <ph4nt0m_> ? lol wrong place
[13:12] <Halabund> I just don't understand how people can seriously use this.  Something like this happens every second day on average.
[13:12] <Krenair> Ubuntu 11.04 froze at the startup splash screen thing (plymouth, i think)
[13:12] <Krenair> I've managed to start it up via the recovery option in grub
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> Halabund: unload then reload the mouse module, may help
[13:12] <cypha> not normally Halabund
[13:12] <cypha> and if the stability of Ubuntu really bothers you, try Debian
[13:13] <Halabund> ActionParsnip, can you point me to some place where I can learn how to do that?
[13:13] <ph4nt0m_> krenair: did you encrypt the home folder on install?
[13:13] <cypha> and Halabund, worse comes to worst, ActionParsnip is here
[13:13] <meta-coder> ActionParsnip, done.! ident server up and responding..
[13:13] <Halabund> cypha It's not that I don't want to use it, I just really wish it worked, and I can't understand why I'm the only one cursed with all this nonsense ....
[13:13] <Krenair> ph4nt0m_, I think I did, yeah
[13:14] <ph4nt0m_> ok reinstall without encrypt see if it works
[13:14] <Krenair> reinstall?
[13:14] <Krenair> are you serious?
[13:14] <Krenair> I can see all my files in my home directory from here
[13:14] <cypha> Halabund, I thought it was just me too. But really it's cuz I like to tinker a lot
[13:14] <ph4nt0m_> it happened to me on ine too then encrypt when you start up
[13:14] <Krenair> I just can't boot normally
[13:14] <cypha> when you break stuff you learn
[13:14] <Krenair> this isn't a new install of ubuntu
[13:14] <Krenair> I've had it for a while
[13:14] <ph4nt0m_> sorry my bad
[13:14] <Krenair> and it was booting fine until today
[13:15] <ph4nt0m_> i assumed
[13:15] <ShawnRisk> seems no one can help me
[13:15] <Snowie> iceroot: so if my card isnt listed as supported by ati, and the included driver on the 11.10 live cd doesnt work.... omg, am i cooked???
[13:15] <ph4nt0m_> whats wrong shawnrisk?
[13:15] <zetui> why you ask me to download in /opt ? ActionParsnip
[13:15] <crittope> Hi. I'm trying to do a full install of ubuntu from boot. My screen turns purple, but I don't see a logo or anything and it just hangs there. What am I doing wrong?
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> Halabund: try:  sudo modprobe -r psmouse; sleep 3; sudo modprobe psmouse
[13:16] <ShawnRisk> ph4nt0m_: how do I change the max windows when programs start to a smaller window when programs start in Ubuntu 11.10?
[13:16] <ActionParsnip> crittope: what GPU do you use?
[13:16] <jon____> hello i have a problem. when i use php with mod_php it runs fine but when i use cgi with suexec it gives me 500 internal server error. im running ubuntu server 11.10 with webmin/virtualmin any help would be appreciated

[13:17] <Krenair> meh, i'll give it another go
[13:17] <ph4nt0m_> sorry i dont know shawnrisk
[13:17] <ph4nt0m_> im limited myself
[13:18] <Snowie> crittope: i am struggling with the same thing, as well as other issues. google for purple screen of death ubuntu gave some advice
[13:18] <ShawnRisk> ph4nt0m_: limited how?
[13:18] <crittope> ActionParsnip: I have NVIDIA GeForce GT 425M
[13:19] <ActionParsnip> crittope: add the boot option:   nouveau.blacklist=1
[13:19] <ph4nt0m_> jargon and knowledge base
[13:19] <ShawnRisk> ph4nt0m_: okay
[13:19] <ph4nt0m_> i only know so much as im learning myself
[13:19] <ph4nt0m_> :)
[13:20] <cypha> ActionParsnip, what's the preferred way to Hibernate?
[13:20] <cypha> I hear the hibernate package is not recommended
[13:21] <crittope> ActionParsnip: I'm pretty new.. how do I add a boot option?
[13:22] <Krenair> nevermind, got it booting again ^^
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> cypha: possibly:   sudo acpitool -S #hibernate
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> !nomodeset | crittope
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> crittope: same as that, just add the different option
[13:23] <ph4nt0m_> im trying to uninstall shorewall and it wont when i do it tells me to goto var/log/shorewall
[13:23] <ph4nt0m_> when i goto var it says permission denied in sudo
[13:24] <zykotick9> ph4nt0m_, are you using /var/log?
[13:24] <ph4nt0m_> honestly i dont know
[13:24] <ph4nt0m_> im not in its directory if thats what you mean
[13:24] <X-tonic> Any method to have gtk themes in 11.10 other than having installed gnome-shell?
[13:24] <X-tonic> Any method to have gtk themes in 11.10 other than having installed gnome-shell?
[13:24] <zykotick9> ph4nt0m_, "cd /var/log" then "ls" and you should see shorewall as either a file or directory
[13:25] <X-tonic> sorry for that
[13:25] <ph4nt0m_> ok brb
[13:25] <cypha> ActionParsnip, it switched to a console window and then just came back
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> cypha: all I did was websearch. I don't use hibernate or junk like tht
[13:25] <lnwlf2007> I've got an interesting one
[13:26] <lnwlf2007> I've solved it with a reboot previously
[13:26] <lnwlf2007> commands are silently failing
[13:26] <cypha> ActionParsnip, why's it junk?
[13:26] <cypha> saving the state is useful
[13:26] <Panda662> Hello
[13:26] <lnwlf2007> like you type 'ls' and it just takes you back to a prompt
[13:26] <lnwlf2007> or top
[13:26] <lnwlf2007> and the same
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> cypha: i web browse and chat. so it's of zero value to me
[13:26] <lnwlf2007> no error message, no core dump
[13:26] <cypha> ah ok
[13:26] <X-tonic> If i want themeing support in ubuntu, do i file it as  bug in launchpad?
[13:27] <X-tonic> or is there a feature request mechanism?
[13:27] <Panda662> Im a newbie and could really use some help with making a hack, could anyone help me?
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> X-tonic: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com is a feature request page
[13:27] <auronandace> Panda662: a hack?
[13:27] <Panda662> Or am I in the wrong place for that
[13:27] <iceroot> X-tonic: bug is correct
[13:27] <Panda662> Yes I'd like to make a hack for the sim social on facebook
[13:27] <auronandace> Panda662: explain what you mean
[13:28] <iceroot> X-tonic: there is a tag for "feature request" or "higher version" and so on
[13:28] <crittope> ActionParsnip: When I boot up and get to t he purple screen I'm presented with the logo at the bottom, but I'm unable to hit a key.. it locks up at that point before I can do anything.
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> !bootoption | crittope
[13:28] <iceroot> X-tonic: but inside a stable-release its not common to put something new in it
[13:28] <megalinux> j
[13:28] <iceroot> X-tonic: guess 12.04 should be the target for the bug
[13:28] <Panda662> I'd like to be able to get free coins and such and would like some help on making a program which could do that
[13:28] <anandvenkat4> how to identify if a connected wireless  is secure through commandline in ubuntu?
[13:29] <cypha> ActionParsnip, well, how about when I choose "Shutdown" the computer doesn't shutdown on its own
[13:29] <X-tonic> iceroot: K. thanks will to that.
[13:29] <iceroot> Panda662: ?
[13:29] <cypha> I have to still hit the power button again after it sits there at the console
[13:29] <Panda662> Well could I use cheat engine or would that not work?
[13:29] <iceroot> anandvenkat4: nm-tool
[13:29] <iceroot> Panda662: what are you talking about?
[13:29] <X-tonic> Panda662: what is your target?
[13:30] <auronandace> Panda662: how is this ubuntu related?
[13:30] <Panda662> Do you use facebook?
[13:30] <iceroot> !ot | Panda662
[13:30] <Panda662> To be honest I don't even know what ubutu is... could anyone direct me to a chat room where I could get some help from programmers?
[13:31] <ikonia> Panda662: ubuntu.com will explain what ubuntu is
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> Panda662: in what language of coding?
[13:31] <Panda662> *ubuntu
[13:31] <auronandace> !ubuntu | Panda662
[13:31] <Panda662> Preferably a beginners language
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> Panda662: i'd go to ##programming
[13:31] <choman> panda662: check out ubuntu.com/tour
[13:32] <Panda662> Thank you :) I'll be on my way now ^_^
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> Panda662: if your ability is THAT then you have several years before you get anywhere near good enough to 'hack' anything
[13:32] <jasef> Hey... I have an Ubuntu 11.10 server that I'm trying to set up UnrealIRCd on, and I was wondering about the builtin 'irc' user, should I be using that or should I make a new one?
[13:32] <jasef> Erm, 10.04 server. Dunno how I made that typo
[13:33] <bencc> I'm using reprepro for a local apt repository
[13:34] <bencc> I've updated sources with: deb file:/var/packages stable main
[13:34] <ph4nt0m_> zykotick9: i deleted the shorewall directory in etc to remove the program but it still shows up in synaptics with an error
[13:34] <bencc> when running apt-get update I'm getting: W: Failed to fetch file:/var/packages/dists/stable/InRelease  Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)
[13:34] <shp> hi
[13:34] <bencc> it worked with ubuntu 11.04 but not with 11.10
[13:34] <auronandace> ph4nt0m_: that isn't how you remove programs
[13:35] <iceroot> bencc: create the Packages files
[13:35] <shp> bit of a problem: i can't enable webcam on flash applications like chatroulette: i can't set "allow": http://www.mydigitallife.info/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/flash-advanced-settings.JPG
[13:35] <ph4nt0m_> auronandance:yes i tried synaptic first then deleted in etc
[13:35] <iceroot> bencc: apt-ftparchive is your friend
[13:35] <bencc> iceroot: what Packages files? I only have amd64 bianry package
[13:35] <ph4nt0m_> but it still shows up in synaptic =/
[13:36] <iceroot> bencc: repos are working with a file called Packages (and Packages.gz) from that file "apt-get update" is reading the content from the repo
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> shp: does it show in cheese?
[13:36] <shp> in cheese?
[13:36] <bencc> iceroot: I'm already using reprepro and it worked with 11.04. it complains about missing i-386 although the package is only for 64
[13:36] <auronandace> ph4nt0m_: /etc is for config files, you don't go around deleting directories to remove a package
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> !info cheese | shp
[13:36] <iceroot> bencc: and i told you what the problem is and what tool will fix it
[13:37] <choman> liveCD mod, anyone know of a way to disable access to the internal HDD.  Can't really explain why anyone would want to do this.  But,
[13:37] <iceroot> bencc: you need a correct Packages, nothing else, apt-get update is ONLY locking for that files, not for any deb-files
[13:37] <choman> I am guessing a boot time switch passed to the kernel  via grub(2).  I know this can be achieved by re-compiling the kernel, I am just
[13:37] <choman> trying to avoid that (time constraints).
[13:37] <ph4nt0m_> auronandace: this the error im getting Errors were encountered while processing:
[13:37] <ph4nt0m_>  shorewall
[13:37] <ph4nt0m_> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[13:37] <shp> yes ActionParsnip
[13:37] <shp> webcam and micro work (mumble, system settings etc...)
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> shp: cool, then the cam is working and configured for the OS
[13:37] <shp> it comes from flash or the browser
[13:37] <shp> yes
[13:37] <shp> it is
[13:37] <bencc> iceroot:it complains about the InRelease file, not about the Packages file
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> shp: which browser?
[13:38] <shp> firefox and chrome both
[13:38] <ph4nt0m_> i have tried to remove by apt-get remove but that didnt work eithe
[13:38] <ph4nt0m_> r
[13:38] <shp> flash tells me to try with internet explorer \o/
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> shp: what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> shp: what is the output of:  uname -m
[13:38] <bencc> iceroot: reprepro should generate everything for me from the incoming package folder
[13:38] <bencc> iceroot: that's what it is for
[13:39] <shp> shp@ubuntu:~$ lsb_release -sc => oneiric
[13:39] <shp> shp@ubuntu:~$ uname -m => x86_64
[13:39] <choman> I have a system on a closed network, is there a way to create a patch CD
[13:39] <zykotick9> !aptoncd | choman
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> shp: try:   LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so firefox
[13:40] <iceroot> bencc: but it seems something went wrong and i dont know reprepro, i am only using apt-mirror and apt-ftparchive
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> shp: or: LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so firefox
[13:40] <ph4nt0m_> cd
[13:40] <bencc> iceroot: ok. thanks
[13:41] <shp> don't work ActionParsnip
[13:41] <Corrytonapple> I know you can boot ubuntu from a USB, but can I boot it from an MP3 player iwth a broken screen?
[13:41] <shp> in fact i can't click on "allow" it's like if it was frozen
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> shp: do they output errors? Can you give more details than "it doesn't wo" as it helps nobody
[13:41] <Corrytonapple> My BIOS on a Toshiba Laptop under 1 year old does not show the flash drive in the boot choice menu
[13:41] <MonkeyDust> Corrytonapple: try it and you know :)
[13:41] <auronandace> Corrytonapple: an mp3 player is essentially a usb storage device so it should work the same
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> Corrytonapple: if you have it attached at boot, it may show up
[13:42] <Corrytonapple> MonkeyDust:  I did try it, and it didn't even show the MP3 player in the BIOS, even though I used the offical Create Startup Disk tools in Ubuntu on it
[13:42] <choman> I heard of APTonCD, but I thought it was used for more of a restoration of installed apps.  Not "patching" a system (aka, apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade [or upgrade]), true?
[13:42] <choman> or is it used for both
[13:42] <Corrytonapple> ActionParsnip: Yes, it was attached at boot
[13:43] <plasmab> anyone know how to stop the launcher bar from hiding when i move a window near it? new gnome seems a bit broken to me
[13:43] <shp> ActionParsnip: it's the same the flash box opens (i sent you a picture) and i can't click on allow it's like if it was frozen, i can't click on allow nor on deny
[13:43] <auronandace> !offline | choman
[13:43] <shp> but it's not frozen because the browser and flash still works
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> shp: but are there any errors in the terminal>
[13:44] <r4> if i want to change the settings within notify-osd....i just need to change the values in default.c within the source, correct?
[13:44] <Corrytonapple> Do I need some kind of special firmware for the MP3 player to boot from it?
[13:44] <shp> ActionParsnip, ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/local/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
[13:44] <auronandace> Corrytonapple: no, it should be just like any usb stick
[13:45] <stephni> ave installed mencoder now how do  i convert my avi file to  3gp
[13:45] <Corrytonapple> auronandace:  Why doesn't it show up in my BIOS, when my other flash drive does?
[13:45] <auronandace> Corrytonapple: i don't know, bioses can be fickle and there are many usb sticks out there
[13:45] <Corrytonapple> This one happens to be an Emerson.....
[13:45] <ActionParsnip> shp: try with the 32 (2nd command I gave)
[13:46] <Corrytonapple> Lemme try a cable shorter than the one I am using which is like four foot long.  BBL then
[13:46] <choman> ubottu: yeah I will look into that.  This workstation is connected only to an internal network and has no access to the regular world.  So a CD/DVD with the appropriate updates is kinda what I am looking
[13:46] <choman> for.   Next thing is a patch/repo server on the internal network and redirect apt-get update to look there.
[13:47] <stephni> how do i convert to 3gp with mencoder
[13:47] <stephni> avi to 3gp with mencoder
[13:49] <Onkeltem> How to configure gnome 3 screencasting?
[13:50] <stephni> somebody help
[13:51] <usr13> Onkeltem: I use recordmydesktop
[13:51] <Onkeltem> usr13: in gnome 3 there is some builtint mechanizm
[13:51] <Onkeltem> but I don't understand how it works, how to make it record something correctly
[13:51] <usr13> OkropNick: Ok, well, I've yet to use it.
[13:53] <usr13> OkropNick: I've actually only done screencasting on my 10.04 box and I've done it on the 11.10 but only via VNC
[13:53] <Onkeltem> usr13: when I pressed that shortcut which start it, gnome-shell shows nothing (record button/icon e.g.), and is restarting in 20-30 seconds. Then I find recorded file in my home.
[13:53] <ActionParsnip> !info xvidcap
[13:53] <choman> stephni: ask
[13:53] <ActionParsnip> !info istanbul
[13:53] <ActionParsnip> Onkeltem: try those
[13:54] <stephni> how can i convert avi to 3gp with mencoder
[13:54] <Onkeltem> ActionParsnip: yeah, xvidcap is good, I used it before. Istanbul is what I disliked. Kazam is the best, but lacks many options
[13:54] <Onkeltem> ActionParsnip: now when we have g3, just want to learn how to use it )
[13:55] <usr13> Onkeltem: May be kind of like the difference between gtk-recordmydesktop and recordmydesktop, one has GUI controls and the other is just CLI
[13:55] <BadLarry> I finally upgraded to oneric yesterday. I'm on a T520 sandy bridge, and am very impressed so far
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> stephni: http://webnesbay.com/convert-movies-in-mobile-3gp-to-avi-in-ubuntu/
[13:55] <empity> on ubuntu server, I made a mistake removing one directory for the slapd package
[13:55] <empity> so I thought I can just remove and reinstall it
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> BadLarry: glad you are enjoying it
[13:55] <Onkeltem> usr13: thanks, I'll try it
[13:55] <empity> since the configuration is wrong, but "purge -f" or "remove -f" need to have that file
[13:56] <BadLarry> ActionParsnip: thank you, I was surprised at how smooth it went
[13:56] <empity> and i can't reinstall it, wtf wtf wtf :?
[13:56] <stephni> lem check it out
[13:56] <usr13> Onkeltem: Should be some documentation somewhere.  What is the package name?
[13:56] <empity> can't I just say "reinstall it" rewriting the original files?
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> BadLarry: I aways clean install personally, fewer issues :)
[13:57] <Onkeltem> usr13: have no idea. It is part of gnome-shell
[13:57] <BadLarry> ActionParsnip: I may still do that, I figured I'd try an upgrade, see how it went and if it botched things, do a fresh install. Just figured I should share that the upgrade went very well
[13:58] <Onkeltem> usr13: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell/CheatSheet
[13:58] <shp> how know if my micro work?
[13:58] <Onkeltem> usr13: there you will find all fancy things, including screencasting )
[13:59] <vatzec> Hi. :) I am using a wireless network. I can connect to it and access its servers using their Internet hostnames, but I can't connect to anything outside the network. I get proper `host <ipaddress>` responses and I can ping external servers, but the pings are a bit delayed and contain words "Redirect Host(New nexthop: <ip here>". Do you know what is the problem?
[13:59] <vatzec> telnetting/using Firefox on port 80 fails, though. Same with e-mails.
[14:00] <Onkeltem> usr13: well, the only "drawback" - it doesn't work for me LOL
[14:00] <usr13> Onkeltem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GL1XCvj9VMA
[14:00] <bencc> iceroot: you were right. I asked reprepro to generate the indexes for i386 as well and it works
[14:00] <laserbled> hi, can some1 five the equivalent of httpd - s in ubuntu please
[14:01] <jrib> laserbled: hmm?
[14:02] <jrib> laserbled: httpd is called apache2 in ubuntu. Not sure if that's your question.
[14:02] <laserbled> jrib, the httpd -S equivalent in ubuntu ; when i give apache2 -S it says bad username
[14:02] <jrib> laserbled: yes, that's a consequence of how debian/ubuntu write the apache configuration
[14:03] <Onkeltem> usr13: good! thank you a lot. The guy told in the video - it doesn't work )) I wonder how they are releasing stuff which doesn't work
[14:03] <laserbled> um so what should i do - some1 asked for my httpd -s output
[14:03] <llutz> laserbled: apache2ctl configtest
[14:03] <jrib> laserbled: here, see this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+bug/259363
[14:04] <adi_> in /etc/samba/smb.conf is it correct to write "browsable" or "browseable" (note the 'e' in "browsEable"). Some tutorials use one versions, others another version. Is there a common typo?
[14:04] <laserbled> jrib,  oh okie, llutz thanks
[14:04] <usr13> Onkeltem: I think he was talking about the keyboard shrot-cut (that doesn't work).
[14:05] <jrib> adi_: read « man smb.conf » (they are synonymous)
[14:05] <shp> my micro does not work (internal micro boost off in alsamixer but if i enable it there is a big big big noise)
[14:05] <Onkeltem> usr13: exactly. He showed how to screencast using old good CLI ffmpet + convertor to WebM
[14:06] <Onkeltem> ggmpeg
[14:06] <Onkeltem> ffmpeg damn
[14:06] <usr13> Onkeltem: Oh, ok.. Well maybe so. (Maybe it doesn't work.)
[14:07] <usr13> Like I say, I've yet to try it.
[14:08] <usr13> But I've always done pretty will with recordmydesktop and/or gtk-recordmydesktop
[14:09] <stephni> cannot open file/device
[14:09] <Onkeltem> usr13: have you tried Kazam?
[14:09] <usr13> no
[14:10] <Onkeltem> usr13: worth to try - its good one and very easy to use, still lacking many obvious things
[14:10] <VictorCL> when I do "cd folder" I get Persmission denied ... how can I enter that folder?
[14:10] <VictorCL> sudo cd folder  xD doesnt work
[14:10] <Sahan76> Hi friends! Now i'm at a grub rescue screen sadly. Error hd0,7 out of disk. I can see everything inside hd0,7 using ls . But, insmod linux gives the same error. Please help me.
[14:11] <incorrect> can anyone suggest a tool to sketch websites, some sort of CAD like tool
[14:11] <lnwlf2007> VictorCL, the permissions must be at least r_x or '5' for the level that you fall into
[14:11] <auronandace> incorrect: you want to use a cad tool to make a website?
[14:11] <lnwlf2007> VictorCL, sudo chmod 755 folder would be a good bet
[14:12] <llutz> VictorCL: what directory?
[14:12] <VictorCL> /var/log/httpd
[14:12] <lnwlf2007> VictorCL, but you don't want to remove perms that are there, so you should do an sudo ls -ald <folder> first
[14:12] <incorrect> auronandace, like inkscape
[14:12] <shp> why do flash crash when i've got this screen: http://support.anymeeting.com/images/images/Viper/Viper-Adobe-Flash-Allow-Prompt.JPG
[14:12] <lnwlf2007> VictorCL, chmod 755 /var/log/httpd should be fine
[14:12] <llutz> VictorCL: "sudo -i" then do
[14:13] <incorrect> auronandace, i want to draw 4 boxes, say they are inputs, say oh this happens, that happens etc
[14:13] <Satanaa> GOD img going CRAZY cuz of 11.10 :'(
[14:13] <Satanaa> im*
[14:13] <VictorCL> chmod: changing permissions of `httpd': Operation not permitted
[14:13] <MonkeyDust> llutz: sudo -i is a no-no on this channel
[14:13] <llutz> lnwlf2007: you don't want to change permissions as a 1st step. it might have reasons, that they are as they are
[14:13] <llutz> MonkeyDust: since?
[14:13] <usr13> VictorCL: What exactly do you need to do with /var/log/httpd ?
[14:13] <jpds> MonkeyDust: Really?
[14:13] <VictorCL> usr13,  see the logs
[14:13] <VictorCL> I need apache logs
[14:13] <VictorCL> php
[14:14] <llutz> VictorCL: sudo less /var/log/lighttpd/xxx.log
[14:14] <auronandace> incorrect: sorry no idea
[14:14] <incorrect> thanks auronandace
[14:14] <th0r> incorrect: I just got in here...you trying to draw a flowchart?
[14:14] <usr13> VictorCL: are you sure that's the right directory?
[14:14] <xglasyliax> hello, I recently updated to 11.10 and set my user to auto-login (does not require password too). Now I can't sudo su since I have no password. Can someone give advice?
[14:14] <MonkeyDust> sudo -i is dangerous for non-experienced users, who may pick it up here
[14:14] <VictorCL>  Idont know
[14:15] <VictorCL> I  dont see anything else that can have those logs
[14:15] <incorrect> th0r, i am currently trying to rapidly sketch out some web pages, i am using inkscape at the moment, but its a little slow
[14:15] <lnwlf2007> llutz, given.
[14:15] <lnwlf2007> VictorCL, sudo -s -H
[14:15] <th0r> incorrect: you might take a look at dia, I thnk it might work for you
[14:15] <sjuxax> How can I get slapd to really reinstall? /etc/ldap/schemas is consistently empty.
[14:15] <incorrect> th0r, oh dia is even slower
[14:15] <lnwlf2007> VictorCL, as root can you get in there? if not then the perms are wrong for the directory period and the system can't be storing files in there
[14:15] <sjuxax> I have tried apt-get install --reinstall and dpkg -i and apt-get remove/apt-get install
[14:16] <usr13> VictorCL: As llutz points out, you should be able to use sudo, right?
[14:16] <sandstrom> What could be the reason why I can't drop the cache on my server? LINE1: root@production1:/proc/sys/vm# sync; echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches LINE2: bash: /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches: Permission denied
[14:16] <alon_> cv
[14:16] <sjuxax> but /etc/ldap/schema never comes back
[14:16] <VictorCL> will check where are the apache logs
[14:16] <weiyang> all, except Ctrl+F1, how could I access the console?
[14:16] <alon_> how to change IRC channel?
[14:16] <xangua> alon_: /join channelname
[14:16] <usr13> VictorCL: Try /var/log/apache
[14:17] <VictorCL> this server doesnt have apache
[14:17] <VictorCL> has httpd
[14:17] <xglasyliax> anyone here know how to sudo if user is to not require password?
[14:17] <xglasyliax> anyone here know how to sudo if user SET (in gui) is to not require password?
[14:17] <usr13> VictorCL: ls /var/log/
[14:18] <VictorCL> user13 there is only httpd that can seem to have those logs
[14:18] <VictorCL> inside /etc/httpd/logs --> have a simbolic link to /var/log/httpd/
[14:18] <alon_> JOIN <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:19] <usr13> VictorCL: That doesn't make sense.
[14:19] <alon_> : JOIN <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:19] <llutz> VictorCL: echo $HTTPD_LOG_DIR
[14:19] <xglasyliax> alon_ you need the /
[14:19] <xglasyliax> alon_ it's /join
[14:19] <VictorCL> llutz returns nothing
[14:19] <douglas-web-dev> Hi all, i'm trying to get apache php and mysql working. I tried some command lines found on the web. But nothing is working yet.
[14:19] <VictorCL> alon you need /newserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:20] <douglas-web-dev> Now it just "downloads" the index.php as a file instead of processing it when I type localhost on the browser.
[14:20] <douglas-web-dev> Now I just wanna remove everything related to webserver, so I can use "xampp". I guess it's easier to me. Could someone help me please?
[14:20] <llutz> VictorCL: aynways, either use "sudo -i" to get a root-shell and watch your logs, or use "sudo less /var/log/httpd/xxx.log"

[14:21] <usr13> douglas-web-dev: What is it exactly you are wanting to accomplish?

[14:22] <Yyharssargyhaell> I am having trouble getting Ubuntu to recognize my printer driver. I installed the printer driver, both the LPD and the cupswrapper, from the Brother website and Ubuntu continues to recommend the generic foomatic driver. Help?
[14:22] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, you need to enable the php5 MOD .. or to configure any other php5 "parser"" like .. CGI or FastCGI
[14:23] <douglas-web-dev> usr13 I tried to apt-get remove things like php5 apache 2 my-sql, and then I removed the apache2 folder from /etc
[14:23] <usr13> Yyharssargyhaell: Try localhost:631 in ff
[14:23] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, better is to use apt-get purge = delete config files too
[14:23] <llutz> Yyharssargyhaell: does cups offer the brother-driver? if yes, use it and ignore what it recommends
[14:23] <sandstrom> I've got about 3.5 gb of RAM on my ubuntu machine. Looking at top there are only a few percentages used by the processes. Where can I see how the rest is used?
[14:24] <Yyharssargyhaell> usr13: I'm not familiar with what I should do with that. = /
[14:24] <Yyharssargyhaell> llutz: Not a comparable one.
[14:24] <usr13> douglas-web-dev: Not sure why that would happen.
[14:24] <zykotick9> !atemyram | sandstrom
[14:24] <douglas-web-dev> spidla thank you, what is the command I should type?
[14:25] <llutz> Yyharssargyhaell: does "ls -l /etc/cups/ppd/" list the related ppd-file?
[14:25] <usr13> Yyharssargyhaell: Open Firefox, type  localhost:631  in address bar, hit enter.
[14:25] <llutz> and yes, brother drivers suck
[14:25] <sandstrom> zykotick9: It's not used as cache/buffer either (unless I'm completely misreading the free -m output): http://pastie.org/2767915
[14:25] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, I am a little bit confused about your last messages ... do you want to make the php work .. or do you want to remove the complete apache+php thing
[14:26] <Yyharssargyhaell> llutz: total 0
[14:26] <usr13> llutz: I've set up a couple of brother printers and they seem to have worked fine.
[14:26] <usr13> laser...
[14:26] <llutz> usr13: only those not needing brothers own drivers
[14:27] <usr13> llutz: Well, they ALL need drivers.
[14:27] <zykotick9> sandstrom, what is the problem exactly?  your physical memory isn't full (swap is barely being used in your paste)
[14:27] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, I wanna get my computer apache+php as it was when I installed ubuntu, without them I think. So I could restart a simple tutorial from beginning
[14:27] <llutz> usr13: a postscript-/pcl-printer shouldn't need any aditional driver at all
[14:28] <alon_> azxsd
[14:29] <Yyharssargyhaell> llutz, usr13: I'm working on this once more. One moment and I will let you know how it goes.
[14:29] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, ok so ... remove everything by issuing ... apt-get purge apache2 ... apt-get purge libapache2* ... apt-get purge php5*
[14:29] <stephni> i still can't convert to 3gp see what i got[14:30] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, I don't understand. I removed apache2, php, mysql and other things. Even deleted apache2 folder. And yet it downloads a index.php file from and website folder and I type localhost on the browser.
[14:30] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, I'm trying your commands now
[14:30] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, thanks
[14:30] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, maybe there is still any other webserver running ... maybe apache version 1 ?
[14:30] <llutz> stephni: what was your exact command you used?
[14:31] <Yyharssargyhaell> llutz, usr13: The localhost command worked a charm. For some reason the driver is found there; not in the system settings. =?
[14:31] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, you can chceck if there is any other webserver listening on port 90 by using ... netstat -pvln
[14:31] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, mistake ... port 80 of course
[14:31] <llutz> Yyharssargyhaell: its always a good idea to ignore systemtools :) better use cups-frontend directly (or lpadmin)
[14:32] <stephni> 3) sudo cd Desktop
[14:32] <stephni> mencoder yourmovie.3gp -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=msmpeg4v2 -oac mp3lame -lameopts vbr=3 -o yourmovie.avi
[14:32] <Yyharssargyhaell> Thanks so much, llutz! usr13: you as well. =D
[14:32] <usr13> NP
[14:32] <sandstrom> zykotick9: I'm trying to figure out what's using my ram! Only running mongo database (0.12gb total data size) and nginx webserver (~1 visit / minute). I can't see how they can eat so much ram?
[14:32] <llutz> stephni: sure? "File not found: 'sheen.avi'"   error won't fit to your command
[14:32] <usr13> sandstrom: htop
[14:32] <SunTsu> sandstrom: use top/htop and let it sort for memory usage
[14:32] <Yyharssargyhaell> sandstrom: http://www.linuxatemyram.com/
[14:33] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, netstat -pvln says port 80 is in a "Listen" state
[14:33] <Yyharssargyhaell> I've been using Linux since 2008 and that's the first time I've ever seen that "Ate My Ram" page. Props to whoever wrote that - that's awesome
[14:33] <stephni> i renamed yourmovie.avi to sheen.avi
[14:33] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, Please, what does the command purge do?
[14:34] <llutz> stephni: what was your exact command you used?    <- what part of "exact" you don't understand?
[14:34] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, and what is the application name (using the port 80) ?
[14:34] <llutz> stephni: ls -l sheen.avi
[14:34] <zykotick9> douglas-web-dev, purge removes both the program and config files
[14:34] <stephni> ok
[14:34] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, purge is the same as remove, but it also deletes the configuration for selected package
[14:35] <stephni> sudo cd Desktop
[14:35] <stephni> mencoder sheen.avi -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=msmpeg4v2 -oac mp3lame -lameopts vbr=3 -o sheen.3gp
[14:35] <douglas-web-dev> zykotick9 thank you
[14:35] <llutz> stephni: 1st: don't use "sudo cd" , its nonsense
[14:35] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, nice to know this
[14:36] <stephni> ok lem try
[14:36] <llutz> stephni: "cd /directory/containing/sheen.avi"
[14:36] <stephni> is in the desktop
[14:36] <zykotick9> stephni, "cd" then "cd Desktop" should work
[14:36] <llutz> stephni: cd ~/Desktop
[14:37] <zykotick9> stephni, llutz's is better ;) - same result though
[14:37] <llutz> stephni: if "ls -l sheen.avi" give some result, "mencoder sheen.avi -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=msmpeg4v2 -oac mp3lame -lameopts vbr=3 -o sheen.3gp"
[14:38] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, the column name PID/Program name is not saying the program name of any port
[14:38] <stephni> is working
[14:38] <llutz> douglas-web-dev: sudo lsof -i :80
[14:38] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, are you running netstat command as root ?
[14:38] <stephni> yayyyyy thanks
[14:39] <llutz> stephni: remember: whoever tells you to "sudo cd" is an idiot, don't follow him :)
[14:39] <stephni> ok ok
[14:40] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, No, I forgot... As root the program name appears. it's 2626/httpd
[14:41] <douglas-web-dev> llutz, thank you
[14:42] <douglas-web-dev> spidla sorry, I enjoy Linux, but I'm not an expert...
[14:44] <adi_> is there something wrong with this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/serverguide/C/samba-fileserver.html ? I tried following it and I can't see the linux shares from windows xp
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> adi_: if you run:  smbtree  on the server, do you see the shares?
[14:44] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, httpd looks like an apache version 2 instance
[14:45] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, apache v1 is managed by separate package .. apache
[14:45] <stephni> the mb has sky rocketed from 3o mb to 93
[14:45] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, are you there yet?  I runned apt-get purge apache2 ... apt-get purge libapache2* ... apt-get purge php5* . they removed some megabytes.
[14:45] <adi_> ActionParsnip: smbtree shows nothing, apparently
[14:45] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, good .. but there is still apache package ... try .. apt-get purge apache
[14:45] <theadmin> (X)Ubuntu 11.10. The only working way to shut down is "sudo poweroff". "sudo reboot" and any other ways to shutdown just result in a black screen. Any ideas? The computer is Acer Aspire One Happy2. Also, the same problem was found in other distros as well.
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> stephni: if you make a script you can use that easier :)
[14:46] <stephni> ok
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> adi_: then the shares are not right
[14:46] <stephni> how do i make a script
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> stephni: gimme a sec, i'll make one for you
[14:46] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, then you should have no webserver left and you can install everything from scratch
[14:46] <stephni> ok
[14:46] <adi_> ActionParsnip: I also tried configuring from various GUIs, like koomba2, smb4k or 'samba' (from ubuntu software center)
[14:47] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, it says I can't remove virtual packages like "apache"
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> stephni: http://pastebin.com/bk2wAnY0    put that in a text file and mark it as executable. Call it something like make3gp and copy it to /usr/bin   you can now use:    make3gp file.avi   and on the desktop will appear the result :)
[14:48] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, but my computer still downloads the index.php file when I type localhost on the browser
[14:48] <Satanaa> douglas-web-dev, try apache2 or httpd
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> adi_: I can give you my smb.conf if you want
[14:49] <PhantomPhreak53> I am attempting to setup Ubuntu Server 10.04 on a Dell PowerEdge 2850.
[14:49] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, well there is probably some other package with httpd web server
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> adi_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/720754/
[14:49] <PhantomPhreak53> It has Hardward raid, do I need to install the distro just like a regular install and the hardware raid takes care of the rest?
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> adi_: you only need the bottom sections
[14:49] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, according to ubuntu package database .. httpd file may belong to package libnet-server-perl
[14:49] <douglas-web-dev> spidle the output is, apache2: Could not open configuration file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: No such file or directory
[14:50] <PhantomPhreak53> I tried searching on the net and everything points to software raid and not much support on Hardware raid
[14:50] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, the output of what command ?
[14:50] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, it's telling httpd command was not found
[14:50] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, just apache2..
[14:50] <douglas-web-dev> You meant to purge it?
[14:51] <genii-around> PhantomPhreak53: The PERC controller works fine under Ubuntu
[14:51] <death1> www.l2death.com new [Server RPG][High Five] XP/7 SP/7 Adena/ 7 Drop/ Spoil: x7Party XP/ SP: x1.5Max Safe Enchant : 3 Max Enchant : 20
[14:51] <douglas-web-dev> If I log off the session after all this, won't it get solved?
[14:51] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, you have already reinstalled the apache2 package ?
[14:51] <Satanaa> hehe yea and i just figured out that im forced to install debian on my netbook
[14:51] <PhantomPhreak53> genii-around: so do I just install ubuntu on the one hard drive like it was a normal install?
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> Satanaa: why forced?
[14:52] <douglas-web-dev> No, is it like on this page? http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/installing-php5-and-apache-on-ubuntu/
[14:52] <PhantomPhreak53> The setup only detects the one hard drive so I think the hardware raid is doing its job
[14:52] <genii-around> PhantomPhreak53: Yes, in your bios make the raid device, then install onto it after
[14:52] <Satanaa> cuz some ubuntu dev has "broken"ubuntu so it doesnt work for me, and there is no fix what so ever
[14:52] <Satanaa> broken in 11.10
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> Satanaa: what about suse, mandriva, fedora, xpud, puppy and so on?
[14:53] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, and you used all the commands on that page ?
[14:53] <Satanaa> those are bad
[14:53] <PhantomPhreak53> genii-around: is there a way to test the hardware raid after the setup is complete?
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> Satanaa: natty is still very supported, as is maverick.
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> Satanaa: theyaren't bad at all
[14:53] <Satanaa> i dont like old packages
[14:53] <Satanaa> so that kinda solves that part hehe
[14:54] <posixnoob> where is it appropriate to issue iptables command when starting up ubuntu?
[14:54] <llutz> posixnoob: /etc/network/if-up.d
[14:54] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, no, I can try it now. The first time I did something else on some other page I can't remember.
[14:54] <posixnoob> llutz thanks
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> Satanaa: they work just as well..
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> Satanaa: and without actually looking, you wouldn't know either
[14:55] <Satanaa> so no issues in 11.04 10.10 11.04, and broken in 11.10
[14:55] <Satanaa> ActionParsnip, its not about me knowing hehe
[14:55] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, everythong is mixed for me now .. because I am not sure what packages do you actually have on the machine
[14:55] <Pici> Satanaa: Please file a bug if there is a broken package in Ubuntu.
[14:55] <genii-around> PhantomPhreak53: Unfortunately it's been a while since I had ubuntu running on one of those poweredge boxes, I forget. I believe most of the work is done in hardware on them.
[14:55] <douglas-web-dev> I don't remember the command, there was a ^ in the end of if
[14:56] <Satanaa> no matter what i do, mu screen turns off after 10 mins of idleing.. and only way to get back in is to reboot or standby/wakeup
[14:56] <Satanaa> my*
[14:56] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, nevermind .. i got some other idea
[14:56] <posixnoob> also, why do i have to flush iptables to get get a port forwarded?
[14:56] <Satanaa> and this is not something i just noticed.. been fighting this since the release
[14:56] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, ok what is it?
[14:56] <spartan2276> Does anyone know how to get RID of the scrollbars and revert to the older ones?;eclipse does not like them
[14:56] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, try ... apt-get install --reinstall apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5
[14:57] <PhantomPhreak53> genii-around: so just to make sure. It was previously configured for win 2003 with raid 5 (so bios should be good). I can just do the standard setup of ubuntu server and everything should be good right?
[14:57] <becom33> I upgrade my 9.4 ubuntu to 9.10 . but now my resolution has change . I had 1000x700 somthing like that . now I have 800x600 :( how can I fix this ?
[14:57] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, ok
[14:57] <diamonds> http://askubuntu.com/questions/71762/why-was-my-touchpad-soft-disabled-on-ubuntu-update
[14:57] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, this should reinstall all needed packages .. and it doesnt matter if they are already installed or not
[14:57] <diamonds> wow, good question!!
[14:57] <bencc> I'm getting: Failed to create host name resolver: Invalid host name
[14:57] <diamonds> that sequoia fellow, he sounds pretty sharp
[14:57] <bencc> what can be the problem?
[14:57] <posixnoob> what handles the ipchains rules when I set a connection to "Shared to other computers"?
[14:57] <Reaper> ok I have to go back to 11.04 because this 11.10 is horrible ! its too buggy
[14:58] <genii-around> PhantomPhreak53: Yep. The software just sees the raid as a single device it can install to
[14:58] <posixnoob> iptables, rather
[14:58] <PhantomPhreak53> genii-around: thanks! Be back in a bit
[14:58] <becom33> anyone ?
[14:58] <compdoc> becom33, you cant right-clcik the desktop and set
[14:58] <compdoc> ?
[14:58] <Deddly> !mint
[14:59] <becom33> right click and set ?
[14:59] <Satanaa> mint linux is like ubuntu + 2 apps and a new theme, so kinda supported ;P
[14:59] <becom33> my max resolution is 800x600
[14:59] <Satanaa> 11.10 is kinda different tho lol
[14:59] <Pici> Satanaa: no. Its not supported here. period.
[14:59] <becom33> I had 1000x700 somthing
[14:59] <becom33> compdoc:
[14:59] <Satanaa> Pici, i know, buts its really just ubuntu that isent supported :P
[14:59] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, all right I did it.. there's something else?
[14:59] <Pici> Satanaa: I don't know what that means.
[14:59] <theadmin> Satanaa: It's only supported if you don't say it's Mint :P
[15:00] <Deddly> Hey I didn't mean to start a Ubuntu vs Mint argument, I just wanted that info from the bot
[15:00] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, now try /etc/init.d/apache restart
[15:00] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, and tell me if it started correctly
[15:00] <Satanaa> Pici, it means if you install 2 apps and change your theme, your ubuntu install is technically not supported in here :P
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> If you ask for Ubuntu supoprt in #debian you will be sent here, but ubuntu is based on debian. Same deal
[15:00] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, should I put apache2?
[15:00] <eSoul> !ebox
[15:00] <Pici> Satanaa: Mint uses their own repositories and is not supported by this channel.
[15:00] <becom33> anyone ?
[15:01] <Satanaa> oh didnt know they got that added now
[15:01] <Satanaa> so more than a theme now lol
[15:01] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, yeah sorry
[15:01] <keda87> i'm installing ubuntu with wubi in my laptop, dual OS eith win7, can i increase my linux size???, cz i'm installing with 10GB drive
[15:01] <Pici> becom33: 9.10 supported ened in April, you'll need to upgrade to a supported release to receive support ehre.
[15:01] <douglas-web-dev> it says .: 51: Can't open /etc/apache2/envvars
[15:01] <adi_> there's something strange, I can't do HTTP POSTs from ubuntu 10.04
[15:02] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, is there an /etc/apache2 ?
[15:02] <adi_> can't paste code in pastebin or any other pastesite
[15:02] <becom33> Pici I had 9.10 . that also becoz of Resolution I installed 9.4 which I had before . it tuk the VGA and advance effects fine
[15:02] <douglas-web-dev> I'll see here
[15:02] <Suarezisthe1> Hello, i am running Xubuntu and i am using compiz fusion but when ever i start a new session the window decorations are missing so i have to manualy start up compiz fusion icon then i have to reload desktop to get window boarders is there a way to make it do all this automatically at start up? thankyou.
[15:02] <adi_> From Chrome when trying to do POSTs at pastesites Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE): The server closed the connection without sending any data.
[15:02] <becom33> Pici even after I upgrade advance effects works fine . just the resolution is messed up
[15:02] <posixnoob> where are iptables' default default rules usually stored?
[15:03] <Pici> becom33: You said you're running 9.10, right?
[15:03] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, yeah, it's there, but there's only one folder inside
[15:03] <douglas-web-dev> mods-available
[15:03] <SunTsu> posixnoob: there are default rules?
[15:03] <becom33> Pici yes
[15:03] <Pici> !9.10 | becom33
[15:03] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, ok .. try ... apt-get install --reinstall apache2.2-common
[15:03] <Suarezisthe1> and by new "session" i mean everytime i log in
[15:03] <posixnoob> SunTsu: whatever I'm having to flush out to get port forwarding to work
[15:03] <Satanaa> Pici, you seem to know stuff.. do you know where the conf for power settings are located in 11.10 ?
[15:03] <becom33> so u want me to install 11.10 ? but it didnt take advance effects
[15:03] <X-tonic> Shouldn't there be a Gubuntu now?
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> adi_: use pastebinit at cli, much easier ;)
[15:04] <Pici> Satanaa: It may be in /etc/udev/ , but I'm honestly not sure.
[15:04] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, after that try again /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[15:04] <SunTsu> posixnoob: For me there are no iptables rules, do you see any when soing iptables -L?
[15:04] <Satanaa> Pici, thanks :)
[15:04] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, ok, it's running.. What's the diference of using --reinstall?
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> X-tonic: there is
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> X-tonic: its a gaming distro, equally offtopic though
[15:05] <spartan2276> Is there any way to change the name of my PC?
[15:05] <zykotick9> douglas-web-dev, --reinstall replaces config files
[15:05] <posixnoob> SunTsu: does ufw's before.rules get parse even when ufw is disabled?
[15:05] <zykotick9> !hostname | spartan2276
[15:05] <douglas-web-dev> zykotick9, thank you
[15:05] <adi_> ActionParsnip: apparently, trying to paste other things works, just the smb.conf file hangs indefinitely :(
[15:05] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, it does what it says :-) .. just reinstalling the package no matter if the package is already installed or not :-)
[15:06] <ActionParsnip> X-tonic: sorry: http://gubuntu.sourceforge.net
[15:06] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, now when the apache is running properly ... is the php still downloading ?
[15:07] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, nice :) I thought without --reinstall everything would be replaced the same way
[15:07] <spartan2276> zykotick9, will this affect Ubuntu one?
[15:07] <Reaper> Gah!  And the restart command still returns .: 51: Can't open /etc/apache2/envvars
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> Reaper: what GPU?
[15:10] <posixnoob> SunTsu: ok, I think I get it now ... I save my iptables to a file and then issue the iptables-restore command from rc.local ...
[15:10] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, and is there that file ?
[15:10] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, I'm sorry for getting you busy with this... :/
[15:11] <Reaper> dunno, came with the laptop. acer 5100. works fine if I load into another os, and was workin fine lastnight
[15:11] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, thats OK but i have got only few minutes left from now
[15:11] <signal0> guys, are there any major problems with sandy bridge?
[15:11] <SunTsu> posixnoob: I don't know, Idon't know ufw, but you might want to say that you use that, because per default there are no iptables rules
[15:11] <stevecam> does anybody else find that banshee is very buggy in oneiric?
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> Reaper: lspci | grep -i vga   will say
[15:11] <Reaper> k 1 sec
[15:11] <tensorpudding> signal0, there was one
[15:11] <douglas-web-dev> Ok, anyway I thank you a lot for your attention :)
[15:12] <tensorpudding> signal0, a flaw in a chipset, but they're not in newer versions
[15:12] <posixnoob> SunTsu: exactly ... I'm going to restart my firewall to make sure it works (ei: thanks, bbl if I need anything else)
[15:12] <signal0> tensorpudding: is it fixed? i'll buy a new computer in the next days and cant find any good infos about sandy bridge and ubuntu 11.10
[15:12] <Forseti> How do i get MP3 decoder plugin for xubuntu 11.04
[15:12] <douglas-web-dev> The file is there. I changed the default www to a home folder
[15:12] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, hey ... are you using sudo with /etc/init.d/apache2 command ?
[15:12] <signal0> tensorpudding: so i shouldn't have any problems?
[15:12] <Reaper> radeon xpress 200
[15:12] <douglas-web-dev> Before start uninstalling it
[15:13] <tensorpudding> signal0, sandy bridge works fine with ubuntu, even the old ones
[15:13] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, yes I'm using sudo
[15:13] <signal0> tensorpudding: cool.. thank you!
[15:13] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, does the /etc/apache2/envvars exist ?
[15:14] <adi_> and pastebinit fails with the following http://pastebin.com/THbXrAKX (which ironically can be pasted)
[15:14] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, even if we don't get it solved now, I learnt nice comands with you :)
[15:14] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, as I'm a very learner
[15:15] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, no, it says not found..
[15:15] <fitus> hello everyone
[15:15] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, but there's more folders now inside /etc/apache2
[15:16] <fitus> I am having trouble with the new ubuntu version, every time a restart my box my sound is gone and so is my vol icon from the panel, any way in how to fix it ?
[15:16] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, conf.d  httpd.conf  mods-available  mods-enabled  sites-available  sites-enabled
[15:16] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, thats almost everything you need
[15:17] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, almost? :)
[15:17] <theadmin> (X)Ubuntu 11.10. The only working way to shut down is "sudo poweroff". "sudo reboot" and any other ways to shutdown just result in a black screen. Any ideas? The computer is Acer Aspire One Happy2. Also, the same problem was found in other distros as well.
[15:17] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, well envvars is probably used by apache2ctl
[15:18] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, envvars is part of apache2.2-common package .. so reinstalling should have replaced that
[15:18] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, Hm.. What does that mean?
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: do you have latest BIOS?
[15:19] <fitus> any help in how to fix the sound issue ?
[15:20] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, I'm confused.. is there a way of putting envvars there?
[15:20] <fitus> I am having trouble with the new ubuntu version, every time a restart my box my sound is gone and so is my vol icon from the panel, is there any way in how to fix it
[15:20] <douglas-web-dev> I'll reinstall it
[15:21] <Amdpc> !patience | fitus
[15:21] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, no try this
[15:21] <fitus> I am doing it , am serching on the forums
[15:22] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, apt-get purge apache2.2-common ... apt-get install --reinstall apache2.2-common libapache2-mod-php5
[15:22] <posixnoob> strange, I'm still having to flush iptables and set the forwarding rule manually ... and whenever I restart there's a bunch of rules set that probably shouldn't be there
[15:22] <edwardthefma> hello
[15:23] <deathangel74> server irc.bitgamer.su
[15:23] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, hopefully .. the envvars will appear ... if not .. I can send you the default version of envvars .. but it is not such a clean solution
[15:23] <blauefuesse> hello, i have a ATI Radeon 7000 VE GFX-Card: $ hwinfo --gfx >> http://paste.ubuntu.com/720784/ ; $ lspci >> http://paste.ubuntu.com/720785/ . I have been incontering system-freezes(keyboard,etc..), that sometimes just disappear after a few seconds/minutes. I do not use a xorg.conf file in /etc/X11... how can i solve this Issue?
[15:23] <blauefuesse> i have read that this card has DRI issues.
[15:24] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, thank you, I'm trying running the commands
[15:24] <edwardthefma> did thay make a server version of xbuntu
[15:24] <llutz> edwardthefma: since -server comes without X, wouldn't make sense
[15:25] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, anyway ... I got to go ... I pasted the original contents od envvars here http://pastebin.com/cPhAdAkW
[15:25] <spidla> douglas-web-dev, good luck with that.. bye
[15:25] <douglas-web-dev> spidla, ok, thank you for everything, sincerely :)
[15:25] <edwardthefma> llutz waht would you sugest i use for a 64 bit laptop with 6g
[15:26] <llutz> edwardthefma: whatever you like
[15:26] <edwardthefma> using it as a web server
[15:26] <llutz> edwardthefma: debian-stable amd64 :)
[15:26] <edwardthefma> i was using normal xubuntu
[15:27] <llutz> edwardthefma: then use ubuntu-server amd64
[15:27] <edwardthefma> ok
[15:27] <llutz> edwardthefma: be warned, it comes without GUI
[15:27] <edwardthefma> ewwwww
[15:28] <aprilus> anyone know how to find out the baud rate of a modem?
[15:28] <dr_willis> aprilus:  old serial modem?
[15:29] <sroecker> hi, anyone else got problems with their icons and themes since today? mine are the default gnome ones now, must have been an update today
[15:29] <aprilus> dr_willis: no, i'm using uart to connect my modem
[15:29] <Reaper> Does Linux mint have a channel. Think I may want to try it out.
[15:30] <llutz> !mint
[15:30] <Reaper> thanx
[15:30] <dr_willis> aprilus:  uart? you mean its a cell phone/network type modem?
[15:30] <p1ruj3> okay, since update my mount /dev/sdb1             1.9T  1.3T  626G  67% /mnt/FTM2TB - doesnt work io error, yet it remounted it as dev/sdd1             1.9T  1.3T  626G  67% /media/Expansion Drive   - any clue as to how the device would change like that?
[15:31] <posixnoob> SunTsu: do you know where the default settings would be in a situation where ubuntu is Sharing it's internet connection to ther computers?
[15:31] <dr_willis> posixnoob:  for the users or system defined shares?  system defined = /etc/samba/smb.conf
[15:32] <dr_willis> posixnoob:  the user made shares are in /var/ i recall.. i dont have any defined right now
[15:32] <M4d3L> if in command line my spaw show 0k total. is it a problem?
[15:32] <SunTsu> dr_willis: posixnoob is talking about ufw as a firewall
[15:32] <M4d3L> swap*
[15:32] <p1ruj3> some how that mount works still with my rsync backup's tho....
[15:32] <p1ruj3> very strange
[15:32] <p1ruj3> anyone have any ideas?
[15:32] <SunTsu> posixnoob: as I said, I don't know ufw, and aside from that there's no default rules, AFAIK
[15:33] <p1ruj3> myelick@FileServer:/mnt/FTM2TB$ ls -la  ls: reading directory .: Input/output error  total 0
[15:33] <dr_willis> /var/lib/samba/usershares$
[15:33] <dr_willis> is where user shares go,,
[15:34] <dr_willis> :)
[15:34] <Lostmonk> how do I check if my wireless is supported out the box?
[15:34] <posixnoob> SunTsu: I'm getting closer ... I think there has to be some default iptables rules set for ubuntu's Shared Internet Capability to work
[15:34] <dr_willis> !hcl
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> Lostmonk: try it in liveCD
[15:34] <Lostmonk> I have it installed
[15:34] <llutz> dr_willis: Internet Connection Sharing, not files
[15:34] <aprilus> dr_willis: no..it's a normal modem, i mean i'm using usb-to-serial adapter to connect my modem
[15:34] <Lostmonk> but I dont know if I need to install additional drivers
[15:35] <dr_willis> Lostmonk:  totally dependd on the chipset of the devicce.. some need attadional firmware files
[15:35] <posixnoob> SunTsu: also it would appear that whatever is setting the rules is running after I log in as a user (so after rc.local gets a chance to restore my saved rules) eg: this is what I get for using Ubuntu Desktop instead of Ubuntu Server
[15:36] <Lostmonk> dr_willis, is there a way to download them on this laptop then transfer from a usb?
[15:36] <dr_willis> Lostmonk:  should be,
[15:36] <dr_willis> Lostmonk:  i just run a wire for a few min to get them
[15:36] <Lostmonk> dr_willis, no access to a wire
[15:36] <dr_willis> !aptoncd
[15:36] <Lostmonk> Im trying to find out even if this chipset needs additional or if its an issue
[15:37] <dr_willis> Lostmonk:  and the chipset is?
[15:37] <theadmin> (X)Ubuntu 11.10. The only working way to shut down is "sudo poweroff". "sudo reboot" and any other ways to shutdown just result in a black screen. Any ideas? The computer is Acer Aspire One Happy2. Also, the same problem was found in other distros as well.
[15:37] <posixnoob> SunTsu: I might just wipe the box and start fresh with Ubuntu Server ... eg: once I'm a little more comfortable with some things.
[15:37] <Lostmonk> an Intel 3945
[15:37] <dr_willis> Lostmonk:  i thought most intel were supported out of the box with no extas.. but ive never had one. :)
[15:37] <Lostmonk> hehe
[15:38] <Lostmonk> I know the 10.10 livecd found it
[15:38] <Lostmonk> but this fresh install, I am finding nothing
[15:38] <dr_willis> Lostmonk:  live cd worked. but an install dident?
[15:38] <Lostmonk> I just installed 11.10
[15:38] <llutz> posixnoob: does this help (part about masquerading)? https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/firewall.html
[15:38] <Lostmonk> wireless shows not at all
[15:38] <dr_willis> live cd of 11.10 dident work?
[15:39] <dr_willis> sure the switch is in the on position?
[15:39] <Lostmonk> nope and yes
[15:39] <Reaper> im going to get my 11.04 cd or try the new lxde from mint. I think im done with 11.10
[15:39] <dr_willis> ive seen some weird wireless where if you turned the switch off, you had to turn it on in windows.... :()
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> Lostmonk: if you run:  sudo iwlist scan     do you see access points?
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> Reaper: could install lxde in ubuntu
[15:40] <Lostmonk> says interface does not support scanning
[15:40] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: That'd be "sudo iwlist INTERFACE scan"
[15:40] <posixnoob> llutz: it might a little bit ... I guess I'm not actually using ufw here ... just trying to find a way to flush iptables and set my rule automatically when my internet connection gets shared to other computers
[15:40] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: e.g. "sudo iwlist wlan0 scan"
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> Lostmonk: ok then run:  sudo rfkill list   is the wifi blocked in any way?
[15:40] <Reaper> ActionParsnip I would but its so buggy witht the gnome fall back. its just horrible.
[15:40] <Lostmonk> neither hard or soft bloked
[15:40] <dr_willis> gnome fallback.. should be removed...
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: true, a bit neater, but it may not be wlan0  could be ar0 or eth1
[15:40] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: Yeah, true too
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> Reaper: with lxde, the gnome desktop won't show its face
[15:41] <zoned> there are 4 perl modules i need to install. i have the url to all 4 of these on cpan, but is there an apt-get syntax that will install these for me?
[15:41] <posixnoob> It really would be nice is Ubuntu's Connection Sharing supported port forwarding right out of the box
[15:41] <dr_willis> zoned:  cpan has its own tools...  to use. not apt-get
[15:41] <sol_> hello, i upgradet from 11.04 to 11.10 and now it hangs shortly after start. how do i find out whats the problem?
[15:41] <Lostmonk> ActionParsnip, neither hard or soft blocked
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> Lostmonk: what is the wireless interface name? wlan0 is common
[15:42] <llutz> zoned: they are not in the repos?
[15:42] <Lostmonk> dell-wifi
[15:42] <dr_willis> zoned:  unless they are in the repos.  cpan is sort of impressive as what all it contains
[15:42] <quick-> is there any software for to build flex apps in ubuntu ?
[15:42] <Reaper> ActionParsnip: so far gnome wont let me use the monitor connected to my laptop says the graphics are too high for the machine. will lxde fix this or should i try to reinstall 11.10 again?
[15:43] <zoned> dr_willis, http://gitorious.org/perl-html-parser
[15:43] <zoned> that's the repo
[15:43] <zoned> (for one of them)
[15:43] <Amdpc> Hi...can I run .rpm files in ubuntu ?
[15:43] <llutz> zoned: libhtml-parser-perl
[15:43] <Lostmonk> ActionParsnip, dell-wifi
[15:43] <DJones> !alien | Amdpc
[15:43] <dr_willis> Amdpc:  you can convert and install them.. but its not reccomended..
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> Lostmonk: no, the name from the scan
[15:44] <azixs> helo friends
[15:44] <zoned> llutz, where did you come up with that?
[15:44] <Lostmonk> lo and eth0 are all thats there
[15:44] <llutz> zoned: "apt-cache search perl html parser"
[15:44] <Amdpc> dr_willis : How to convert them ?
[15:44] <samsul> !ebox
[15:47] <zoned> llutz, http://gitorious.org/perl-uri  and  http://search.cpan.org/dist/Archive-Zip/    i tried doing apt-cache search on these and got wayy too many results?
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> Lostmonk: ok then run:  sudo lshw -C network
[15:48] <ActionParsnip> Lostmonk: use the product line to find guides
[15:48] <llutz> zoned: libarchive-zip-perl  liburi-query-perl
[15:48] <Lostmonk> yeah, I actually just rebooted to make sure my wireless wasnt turned off in bios
[15:48] <emc2> hello all
[15:49] <llutz> zoned: not sure, but they seem to be the right ones
[15:49] <zoned> llutz, ... thanks. you found that just through apt-cache search??
[15:49] <llutz> zoned: sure
[15:50] <posixnoob> How does ICS actually share the internet connection? I'm guessing it's all with iptables but where does it do this?
[15:50] <llutz> zoned: you have to check the given results and read description. in most cases you'll find the right one this way
[15:50] <mongy> got this dodgy laptop that has a hosed windows on it, but it wont boot usb/cd ubuntu unless I take the hd out.  for some reason it gets past the purple ubuntu boot screen but then tries to access the hd and its stopping it going further.
[15:50] <mongy> halp!
[15:50] <vivanov> cant start a virtual machine in virtualbox -- suggests installing dkms -- but its already installed
[15:51] <dr_willis> posixnoob:  ages ago the the 'ip-masquerading howto' at tldp.org was the defacto guide.. not sure how valid it still is.. but it had a lot of the hardcore info in it.,
[15:51] <dr_willis> posixnoob:  it sets up the proper rules and it  does it. :)
[15:51] <avinashhm> Hi friends, can we reduce the resolution of an image using gimp ... i am trying to reduce the resolution of an image .. If gimp doesn't have a an option, pls let me know any other suitable tools .... i can explore ..
[15:52] <dr_willis> avinashhm:  You mean make it lower res/size?
[15:52] <posixnoob> dr_willis: unfortunately that document probably doesn't have a lot of pointers about how Ubuntu does things specifically
[15:52] <avinashhm> dr_willis, yes ..i want to lowere size
[15:52] <dr_willis> avinashhm:  gimp can easially do gthat.
[15:52] <avinashhm> dr_willis, oh is it ...
[15:52] <dr_willis> the imagemagick command line tools can also.
[15:53] <avinashhm> dr_willis, i checked imagemagic .. -  ithink "gm convert" can help ..
[15:53] <dr_willis> its all depending on the details. :)
[15:53] <Lostmonk> oh
[15:53] <Lostmonk> interesting
[15:53] <dr_willis> theres even nautilus scripts ive seen to let you convert to specific sizes
[15:53] <Lostmonk> seems its not an intel wireless
[15:53] <Lostmonk> LOL
[15:53] <posixnoob> huh, great now MSN isn't working
[15:54] <avinashhm> dr_willis, can i pick these scripts in any website ... ?
[15:54] <posixnoob> nothing says "your firewall isn't working the way you want it to" like MSN IM not working >.<
[15:54] <dr_willis> avinashhm:  bount to be at some site.. thats where i saw them at..
[15:54] <dr_willis> you really need a firewall posixnoob ? :)
[15:54] <avinashhm> dr_willis, i ll search ... i ll quickly check gimp ..
[15:55] <zoned> how would i go about getting the latest perl installation?
[15:55] <posixnoob> dr_willis: nope, just a single port to be forwarded
[15:55] <avinashhm> dr_willis, thanks ...
[15:55] <llutz> !info perl
[15:56] <llutz> not really the latest...
[15:56] <Lostmonk> is there a way for me to get a package on this laptop and take it to the other with a usb stick?
[15:56] <theadmin> llutz: Heh, don't expect Ubuntu to be up-to-date on the basic things. I bet they still use Python 2.
[15:57] <SunTsu> Lostmonk: of course.
[15:57] <theadmin> !info python
[15:57] <theadmin> See, told ya xD
[15:57] <SunTsu> Lostmonk: but be sure to take all the dependencies, too
[15:57] <Lostmonk> ack
[15:57] <Lostmonk> LOL
[15:57] <dr_willis> !aptoncd
[15:57] <tensorpudding> theadmin, ubuntu uses a very recent version of 2.7
[15:57] <llutz> theadmin: i don't expect anything, i just checked
[15:57] <theadmin> tensorpudding: Still not 3.x >.> I don't really care for python anyway
[15:58] <tensorpudding> theadmin, python 3 is not the "latest release"
[15:58] <theadmin> tensorpudding: Why, it is
[15:58] <theadmin> tensorpudding: Just both the 2.x and 3.x branches are equally supported
[15:58] <tensorpudding> theadmin, using python 3 to the exclusion of python 2 would break a huge amount of code
[15:59] <tensorpudding> theadmin, furthermore, python 3 is available in packages, but the default is python 2, and will be for some time yet
[15:59] <theadmin> tensorpudding: My distro provides both
[15:59] <tensorpudding> !info python3
[15:59] <Weisse> I just had a fresh installed ubuntu and there are some strange lines in the top of the wallpaper, if I change the wallpaper they remain there
[15:59] <theadmin> tensorpudding: Oh, I see.
[16:00] <Weisse> I just had a fresh installed ubuntu and there are some strange lines in the top of the wallpaper, if I change the wallpaper they remain there, just bellow the panel
[16:00] <tensorpudding> this isn't arch, which is willing to break userspace code by changing /usr/bin/python to python 3
[16:00] <ubidoobi2> basic question : need stable site from which to download ubuntu - i've downloaded 3 versions .. none of which will install
[16:01] <theadmin> tensorpudding: Arch isn't willing to break anything. If you want, symlink /usr/bin/python to /usr/bin/python2 and have fun.
[16:01] <ActionParsnip> ubidoobi2: use torrents :)
[16:01] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: all official mirrors should be stable
[16:01] <theadmin> ubidoobi2: ubuntu.com...
[16:01] <ActionParsnip> ubidoobi2: all are stable
[16:01] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: and what ActionParsnip said
[16:01] <tensorpudding> if you're worried about your ISO, check the SHA sum
[16:02] <ubidoobi2> must be my system that's unstable then :( ..
[16:02] <tensorpudding> and compare it to the one listed on the site
[16:02] <ubidoobi2> i've tried everything to install ubuntu .. nothing is working .. even went and got a new hard drive .. same result
[16:02] <datruth> I'm using gpg and trying to create a key it says I need more bytes how can I get that?
[16:02] <Weisse> I dont have strange and bizarre graphical errors from arch as I am for a ubuntu fresh install
[16:02] <mongy> How can I disable the hd from being detected during boot of livecd/liveusb? Something about it is preventing cd/usb from completing boot
[16:02] <theadmin> datruth: I think it gains entropy from keyboard and/or mouse movements, so type like crazy and move your mouse a lot
[16:02] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: what's not working specifically?
[16:03] <racho> theadmin, maybe change boot order in the BIOS ....
[16:03] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: and as tensorpudding said, always check your ISO's checksums before burning and using it
[16:03] <tquintela> Hi, i'm trying to install ubuntu 11.10 on a HP workstation z200 with a intel i7 processor (64bit) and a nvidia quadra nvs 295 but the installation doesn't seem to work
[16:04] <tquintela> the installation cd loads
[16:04] <theadmin> racho: Huh?
[16:04] <tquintela> but the installer doesn't start
[16:04] <ubidoobi2> SunTsu - when i get to the partitioning window .. the only time i can get drive partitions to show up is when I put in a usb stick ... nothing shows up for the actual HDD and the install will not bring me to any drive partitioning screens
[16:04] <datruth> theadmin: could I cat /dev/urandom for that?
[16:04] <theadmin> (X)Ubuntu 11.10. The only working way to shut down is "sudo poweroff". "sudo reboot" and any other ways to shutdown just result in a black screen. Any ideas? The computer is Acer Aspire One Happy2. Also, the same problem was found in other distros as well.
[16:04] <theadmin> datruth: Not sure. Actually, I think gpg --gen-keys will tell you what to do
[16:05] <ubidoobi2> SunTsu ... i've had others try and help me with this .. each one offering his own ideas .. but nothing works .. so it seems ... but i'm determined to get it to work lol
[16:05] <DrPoO> Hi, Im running 10.04 LTS and I get a "*** System restart required ***" message constantly, even after I restart... Any ideas as to how to look into this issue??
[16:05] <datruth> Not enough random bytes available.  Please do some other work to give
[16:05] <datruth> the OS a chance to collect more entropy! (Need 288 more bytes)
[16:05] <datruth> thats all I get
[16:05] <racho> theadmin, in your PC BIOS there is a section which sets the order of booting devices. if you want to boot from a cd/usb make sure they come before your hdd
[16:05] <Amdpc> Hi..does anyone know how to use Remote Desktop Viewer ??
[16:05] <theadmin> racho: Huh, what? This has nothing to do with my question :/
[16:06] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: maybe your ide/sata controller is not supported, tried looking into hw compatibility?
[16:06] <theadmin> Amdpc: If you don't know how to, don't use it and get TeamViewer :P
[16:06] <racho> theadmin, and what is your problem then?
[16:06] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: or maybe it's your sata mode, try setting it to something different
[16:06] <theadmin> racho: See up. The system doesn't shut down properly
[16:06] <ubidoobi2> SunTsu - that would be over my head ... the only thing i can say about my computer is that it's 2 yrs old
[16:07] <Weisse> how can I reinstall all installed packages of ubuntu if I think somethink is corrupted?
[16:07] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: OK, that's old enough to be supported, so my second advice remains ;)
[16:07] <ubidoobi2> sata mode - what would be the options for it? ... i dont' mess with bios  much as i tend to screw things up in it lol
[16:07] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: AHCI e.g.
[16:07] <Amdpc> theadmin : I have teamviewer and I use it too..But I want to learn about Remote Desktop Viewer..
[16:07] <ubidoobi2> SunTsu - it's set to IDE ...
[16:08] <mahesh> hello friend
[16:08] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: that should work, but if it does not, try your other options
[16:08] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: does the ubuntu cd recognize your disks on bootup?
[16:08] <ubidoobi2> SunTsu - I had it set to AHCI and bad things happened ... ie .. booted and lost everything .. no mouse no keyboard and no screen! talk about flying blind on that fix
[16:08] <compdoc> ubidoobi2, IDE means compatible mode, but AHCI enables advanced features or hard drives
[16:09] <compdoc> or=of
[16:09] <ubidoobi2> SunTsu - I can boot into the ubuntu trial area no problem
[16:09] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: sounds like something is odd about your box, then
[16:09] <racho> theadmin, did you check /var/log for information when rebooting or booting
[16:09] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: do you see your harddisks there?
[16:09] <ubidoobi2> SunTsu - and I also tried mint just to be sure .. and mint hangs in the same place
[16:10] <theadmin> racho: That's what I'm wondering about, everything seems to go fine according to all the logs, it's just the system doesn't actually power off the computer for some totally unknown reason
[16:10] <ubidoobi2> SunTsu .. only hard disks i see from either mint or ubuntu installs are usb sticks
[16:11] <Sahan76> !rules
[16:11] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: if you booted up, look through your dmesg for those disks, or paste your dmesg into some paste service so we can look into it
[16:12] <racho> theadmin, lshw | less and look for *-firmware and post results
[16:12] <ubidoobi2> SunTsu - not sure how to do that .. but i'll learn :)
[16:12] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: well, dmesg|less ;)
[16:12] <DrPoO> Hi, Im running 10.04 LTS and I always get a "System restart required" message when I log in, even after I restart. Any ideas as to where to start dealing with this issue?
[16:13] <Weisse> can anyone help me solve a graphical problem here? it is really annoying
[16:13] <ubidoobi2> SunTsu .. so boot into the trial area right ?
[16:13] <Weisse> plesa?
[16:13] <DrPoO> Weisse, whats the problem?
[16:14] <theadmin> racho: Wait a bit, I'm going to ask the person who's actually having the problem to join the channel :D
[16:14] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: those hdds should be reported including vendor, so you could something like dmesg|grep -i samsung
[16:14] <SunTsu> !ask | Weisse
[16:14] <Weisse> DrPoO: the problem is happening in a fresh install
[16:14] <ubidoobi2> SunTsu - I got 3 different HDDs that i've tried .. one is 200 gb 700 gb and 1 tb all different vendors
[16:15] <Weisse> DrPoO: some lines appear in the top of the wallpaper, diferent each time I boot
[16:15] <theadmin> DrPoO: Your nickname is not family friendly, please change it.
[16:15] <theadmin> !ohmy | DrPoO

[16:16] <jrib> DrPoO: well you usually get that when you install or upgrade a package that would require an upgrade (like a new kernel).  So I would start looking at the install scripts for kernel packages.  If that isn't fruitful, try to find documentation about that
[16:16] <Weisse> ill try showing a screenshot
[16:16] <Chakravanti> If I have java and iced tea installed how do i know which one i'm using with javaws?
[16:16] <theadmin> Chakravanti: update-alternatives should help
[16:17] <SubNormal> question, i'm trying to make dhcpd to use eth2 instead of eth0 how can I accomplish that?
[16:17] <theadmin> SubNormal: This will sound almost too obvious, but "dhcpcd eth2"
[16:18] <CarlFK> theadmin: you added a c
[16:18] <XayOn> woah, so DrPoO is a nonfriendly nickname and subnormal is a frinedly one? I lol'd.
[16:18] <SunTsu> ubidoobi2: as I said, see if dmesg even says that the kernel actually sees them
[16:18] <theadmin> CarlFK: Oh, I see, I thought they'd misspell it
[16:18] <theadmin> CarlFK: Because the proper name is dhcpcd
[16:18] <ubidoobi2> SunTsu - okay i'll go do it ... it's on the system i'm using now .. so it's a bit of a pain ..
[16:18] <theadmin> CarlFK: Google doesn't even bring up anything for "dhcpd" that makes any sense
[16:18] <CarlFK> theadmin: thats the client.  the server is dhcpd
[16:18] <theadmin> CarlFK: Oh...
[16:19] <theadmin> CarlFK: Still works though :D
[16:19] <theadmin> SubNormal: dhcpd eth2, sorry

[16:21] <CarlFK> theadmin: um.. what makes you think that is good advice?
[16:21] <SubNormal> theadmin: i'm sorry, but could you please clarify where to use the "dhcpd eth2" ? :-/
[16:21] <Weisse> I im having the following graphical problem, those lines appear on the desktop just bellow the pannel http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11043442/ssbug.png
[16:21] <theadmin> CarlFK: Because that'd work...
[16:21] <theadmin> SubNormal: I think that's a command, or you could edit the config to use whatever
[16:22] <SubNormal> yeah, I've allready edited the dhcpd.conf to eth2 but it still wants to use eth0
[16:22] <XayOn> SubNormal: Have a look here, theadmin seems to be answering almost randomly =/ http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/wiki/index.php/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch08_:_Configuring_the_DHCP_Server#Routing I see that as a nasty trick, but seems like it has to be that way
[16:23] <CarlFK> SubNormal: you are restarting the server, right ?
[16:23] <SubNormal> CarlFK yeah ofcourse :)
[16:23] <XayOn> theadmin: If he has no subnet declaration on the server, calling it with that wont work
[16:23] <XayOn> Um

[16:26] <SubNormal> theadmin CarlFK XayOn i've changed the files /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf  to use eth2, so other then changing eth0 into eth2 in those 2 files I have no idea what to do next :-/

[16:30] <GreekFreak> Weisse: thank you. that was it and I didn't notive the failure :)
[16:30] <ActionParsnip> tompinza: wassup?
[16:30] <tompinza> I have 3 users on my ubuntu 11.10 and I remove to all the password. Now, when I try to use the sudo command with one of this user, sudo is asking me for a password, but I remove it to all; what I have to do ?
[16:31] <SubNormal> CarlFK: thats what I saw in the walktrough, so i just used it :-/
[16:31] <llutz> tompinza: reassign password
[16:31] <Weisse> tompinza: you cant sudo without password
[16:31] <TheEvilPhoenix> tompinza:  sudo requires a passcode - there's no way around that
[16:31] <SunTsu> tompinza: learn what NOPASSWD does in sudoers ;)
[16:31] <TheEvilPhoenix> damn it, ninja'd x 2
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> tompinza: set a password. If you have NO pasword for any sudo users, you will need to drop to root recovery mode and aset it there
[16:31] <TheEvilPhoenix> >.>
[16:31] <SunTsu> TheEvilPhoenix: *cough*

[16:32] <ActionParsnip> tompinza: don't set blank passwords, it makes things not work
[16:32] <SunTsu> tompinza: you really should be careful with a setup like this. Your users need passwords especially when they are allowed to sudo
[16:32] <tompinza> ok thaks so much, I'l try it immediatly
[16:32] <SunTsu> tompinza: even more, you only should use NOPASSWD on specific commands, man sudoers

[16:34] <TheEvilPhoenix> winnie666:  what's the purpose of that?
[16:34] <TheEvilPhoenix> winnie666:  what purpose would you need for such a setup?

[16:36] <SunTsu> !patience | Weisse
[16:36] <TheEvilPhoenix> i.e. not repeating your question in a 3 minute period of time
[16:36] <SunTsu> Weisse: repeating your qquestion will not get you help earlier but makes people ignore you

[16:42] <Tricen> Hello all.  Who feels compelled to aid me with a multi-display problem???
[16:42] <Chraz_Ritt> hi folks, i'm planning on installing ubuntu along side of win 7, and have a few partitioning issues. o have a partition of almost 200gb, and i would like advice on if i should break that into more partitions, and if so how many, also there is data in the partition from an old ubuntu install that i can't get rid of , and would like advice on that as well. thanks in advance for any help i get here.
[16:42] <SubNormal> CarlFK ok thanks for that, but I tried to change the eth2 back to eth0 and got the dhcp to work, but it's giving me 10mb/s connection why's that? and I cant access any websites :-/
[16:42] <Weisse> ActionParsnip: Yes, there is no problem on unity 2D
[16:42] <tigranes> Hi! When I do 'apt-get install wine' on Ubuntu running on a x86-64, does it install a native 64-bit wine or 32-bit (with 32-bit libraries and all that)?
[16:43] <jbwiv_> anyone know if there's a way to use gtk3's new broadway (serving apps via the web) backend easily on 11.10?
[16:43] <SunTsu> Chraz_Ritt: making a new fs on that partition should get rid of anything
[16:43] <CarlFK> SubNormal: um.. 10mb has nothing to do with dhcp... "can't" sounds like your gateway isn't set right
[16:43] <racho> Weisse, it turns out ati x*** cards don't behave properly under compiz introducing visual artifacts
[16:44] <Amdpc> Tricen : Please eloaborate
[16:44] <SunTsu> Chraz_Ritt: I at least would make a /home partition, so you can keep your data whenever you decide to re-install
[16:44] <jbwiv_> I've tried this: "GDK_BACKEND=broadway gedit", but get "Gdk-ERROR **: Unsupported GDK backend: broadway"
[16:44] <kryl> hi
[16:44] <kryl> please do u know if there is a desktop with gnome-shell ?
[16:44] <ActionParsnip> Weisse: then its your chip trying to do 3D stuff. Are you fully updated?
[16:44] <theadmin> kryl: You can apt-get install it
[16:44] <SunTsu> kryl: apt-get install gnome-shell
[16:44] <Weisse> ActionParsnip: fully updated fresh install
[16:44] <dr_willis> kryl:  unless we are missunderstandingyou
[16:45] <manbra_linux> Is there a way to 'unlock' the panels?
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> Weisse: you may need to use an xorg.conf file to specify options to make it run better. I have limited experience of AT chips
[16:45] <manbra_linux> I want to customize my desktop like 11.04
[16:45] <Weisse> racho: the fix is not using compositing?
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> Weisse: you can use Unity2D until you get righted though
[16:45] <Tricen> Q: I have onboard video (Intel 3100) and a Geforce fx 5500.  When I have the geforce in the PC, it is the only thing that shows up in "displays".  When It's removed from the PC, the onboard starts working and I again only see one monitor in "displays".  Any reason for this?
[16:46] <SubNormal> CarlFK ok sorry for that, but the network card should be 10/100/1000 (well atleast 10/100) but how can I configure it to get access to the net?
[16:46] <racho> Weisse, well that's a temporary fix
[16:46] <kryl> I allready have gnome-shell, but I just wonder why I can't use icons with desktop in background :-) I have only menu actually.
[16:46] <Chraz_Ritt> SunTsu: i have tried reformatting that partition from ext 4 to ext2, and back with no results, i also tried to delete the partition both in ubuntu and in windows, but when i create the new partition the data is back
[16:46] <MrElendig> Tricen: your mobo probably automagically disables the onboard gfx when you plug in  the card
[16:46] <MrElendig> Tricen: check the bios
[16:46] <Weisse> ActionParsnip: strange, i had no problem previowsly using xcompmgr
[16:46] <balazs> hi. I have a bunch of issues in Ubuntu 11.10 when switching between windows or moving them between virtual terminals. anyone else seeing that ?
[16:47] <SunTsu> Chraz_Ritt: er, what? that can't happen, what kind of data is it?
[16:47] <Weisse> on another distro
[16:47] <kryl> or how to get amsn working with systray :-)
[16:47] <manbra_linux> balazs, same with me.  Unity is such a headache.
[16:47] <Tricen> MrElendig funny thing is, I get the "Ubuntu" logo on that screen BEFORE the login screen, so the card can't be disabled.  Also, there are no settings for the onboard in my bios.... little confused :P
[16:48] <MrElendig> what driver are you using for the nvidia card?
[16:48] <MrElendig> nouveau or nvidia-173xx?
[16:48] <MrElendig> and why not run both screens from the nvidia card?
[16:48] <Chraz_Ritt> SunTsu, it's old ubuntu data in a folder called "lost and found", and i can't even open the folder due to permissions issues
[16:49] <Tricen> the card only has one output, i'll check the driver now
[16:49]  * MrElendig would get a new card if the box has pcie
[16:49] <Weisse> MrElendig: becausa nvidia doesnt suport 2 screens, it actualy creates a large screen that contains both
[16:49] <balazs> manbra_linux: any easy way to try a new windowing system ?
[16:49] <MrElendig> Weisse: wrong
[16:49] <SunTsu> Chraz_Ritt: ever checked if your disk has issues like badblocks?
[16:49] <austeregrim> I need some assistance with preventing ubuntu from blanking the screen or going to sleep... can someone help? :-)
[16:49] <Weisse> MrElendig: dunno then
[16:50] <manbra_linux> balazs, not that I know of... It's so fn frustrating.
[16:50] <manbra_linux> It's like they want ubuntu to fail : /
[16:50] <MrElendig> Weisse: how the screens are handled is up to the window manager, some spans, some put seperate desktops on the seperate screens
[16:50] <XAVeRY> I'm having problems compiling applications dependent on glib on Ubuntu. I've got libglib2.0-dev installed, obviously, but the programs still refuse to compile and give me "unresolved external" problems referring to functions from the glib library. I am passing the appropriate compiler flags via pkg-config. any suggestions?
[16:50] <Tricen> "NVidia Accelerated Graphics driver (version 173) in the "additional drivers" section
[16:50] <CarlFK> SubNormal: is this your dhcp server?  if so, you need to config it with a static ip, it can't config itself (last I checked...)
[16:50] <MrElendig> Tricen: you can't use that + the intel driver at once
[16:50] <XAVeRY> not to mention that I'm not getting this issue on any other distributions.
[16:50] <MrElendig> Tricen: you will have to use the free noveau(sp?) driver isntead
[16:51] <MrElendig> instead*
[16:51] <Weisse> MrElendig: weel the separate desktops doesnt work with nvidia closed drivers but work with nouveau
[16:51] <Tricen> any guide on how to setup/install?
[16:51] <ActionParsnip> Weisse: try adding the boot option: radeon.modeset=0
[16:51] <MrElendig> Tricen: because they have a conflicting libgl implimentation and the nvidia driver lacks randr support
[16:51] <alvin2_> is there a possible way to  overclock intel atom using ubuntu?
[16:51] <MrElendig> Weisse: http://arch.har-ikkje.net/gfx/ss/2011-04-24-201457_2960x1050_scrot.png  nvidia twinview setup, 2 screens, 2 workspaces
[16:51] <Weisse> ActionParsnip: grub config?
[16:52] <ikonia> alvin2_: overclocking is normally done at the hardware (controlled by bios) level
[16:52] <george_> howdy
[16:52] <Chraz_Ritt> SunTsu, aside from the checker in the partitioning tools in win 7 and ubuntu, no i haven't, but both say that the partition is good
[16:52] <ActionParsnip> Weisse: add it in the quotes with: quiet splash   in /etc/default/grub   then run:  sudo update-grub
[16:52] <sevith> i dont have ipmask on my box i need ipmask how can i install?
[16:52] <sevith> !ipmask
[16:52] <Weisse> MrElendig: dunno then, was not able to make 2 desktops for awesome with the nvidia proprietary driver
[16:53] <drake01> !ipmask
[16:53] <sevith> Anybody?
[16:53] <alvin2_> ikonia:whatif the bios has no option for overclocking?
[16:53] <Weisse> MrElendig: while worked default with nouveau
[16:53] <MrElendig> Weisse: wm only supporting randr and not xinerama maybe?
[16:53] <sevith> Where is my ipmask ?
[16:53] <Weisse> MrElendig: makes sense
[16:53] <sevith> Does anyone know where this command can be installed from?
[16:53] <SubNormal> CarlFK yes this is my dhcp server, I thought that I had configured it's static ip, what should I do to do that? sorry i'm pretty new to this :-/
[16:53] <ikonia> alvin2_: then no
[16:54] <racho>  45
[16:54] <Pelo> i lost the menu bar in nautilus,  how do I recover it ?
[16:54] <madsailor> !hi
[16:54] <sevith> Does anyone know where this command can be installed from? (ipmask)
[16:54] <alvin2_> ikonia: ouch!
[16:54] <MrElendig> sevith: what is ipmask?
[16:54] <llutz> sevith: what should it do/be?
[16:54] <sevith> i have a script i built a while back that used ipmask
[16:54] <CarlFK> SubNormal: um... with the right settings :)
[16:54] <llutz> sevith: what should it do/be?
[16:54] <sevith> now the system im trying to run it on does not have ipmask!?
[16:54] <MrElendig> sevith: also don't spam the question
[16:54] <CarlFK> SubNormal: IP, netmask, gateway, dns servers.
[16:55] <SubNormal> CarlFK lol that's what I thought I had done
[16:55] <sevith> NETWORK=`/bin/ipmask $NETMASK $IPADDR | cut -f 2 -d ' '` this is the line
[16:55] <sevith> Anything equiv would work too. I just need something to set the netmask and address of an interface
[16:55] <ikonia> I've never heard of the command ipmask
[16:55] <llutz> sevith: ifconfig
[16:55] <cillo564> what are linux friendly online movie rental sites?
[16:55] <sevith> ifconfig iface addr 192.168.x.x
[16:55] <sevith> ?
[16:56] <MrElendig> I've heard of one ipmask command, which was a horrible script in slackware back in 2005 or so
[16:56] <hrolf> Damn it Ubuntu, you really do suck sometimes. Again I hit Ctrl + Space and Python IDLE crashed. Code for the past five minutes lost. Thanks Ubuntu.
[16:56] <llutz> sevith: read "man ifconfig" for usage
[16:56] <sevith> k
[16:56] <sevith> Il go get my ethtool and beat myself with it
[16:56] <MrElendig> sevith: you just want to find your ip address / mask or what?
[16:56] <sevith> No
[16:56] <sevith> I have a script that turns your laptop into an access point
[16:57] <MrElendig> hrolf: my suggestion: don't use IDLE, it is not good at all.
[16:57] <sevith> It just needs ipmask to set the stuff right. I guess ifconfig would work. Id rather just install ipmask i guess that redo the script to use ifconfig.. You know? Makes it easier i guess
[16:57] <MrElendig> hrolf: and it can even break some python code/make it behave in strange and unexpected ways
[16:57] <llutz> !find ipmask
[16:58] <B0g4r7> sevith, ifconfig is the standard tool.  I've never heard of ipmask...it the script for some non-linux OS perhaps?
[16:58] <llutz> aha...
[16:58] <sevith> It was built for nix
[16:58] <sevith> gtg
[16:58] <MrElendig> sevith: these days you should use ip instead of ifconfig btw
[16:58] <Chraz_Ritt> SunTsu: i can't find a scanner to check my hdd using ubuntu from the live disk, could you advise me on where it is?
[16:58] <Weisse> ActionParsnip: "quite splash, radeon.modeset=0" or no comma?
[16:58] <MrElendig> Chraz_Ritt: you mean checking the filesystems for errors?
[16:58] <hrolf> MrElendig: I'm new to Python. What do you suggest?
[16:58] <drake01> hi, does nebody feel the problem with nautilus in ubuntu 11.10.. like when you start typing some name and it searches for it in that window.. nautilus now remember the previous information n i don't know how to remove the old content in that small box n start a new search..
