[15:23] <kpettit> DragonKeeper, that's how I connect to my local and remote Linux machiens to get files, edit stuff, etc.
[15:23] <yedek_p2> hello!
[15:23] <hihihi100> iceroot, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/empty-ubuntu-gnome-trash-from-the-command-line.html
[15:23] <iceroot> hihihi100: there are also info-files for the trash
[15:23] <DragonKeeper> kpettit  ok ill try that
[15:23] <iceroot> hihihi100: from 2006
[15:23] <intick> Abhijit: and Mysql ofc
[15:23] <iceroot> hihihi100: changed since hardy to the path i said
[15:24] <kpettit> DragonKeeper, just make sur eyou have ssh installed.  Then in the file manager on or the desktop choose the "connect to server" option.
[15:24] <Abhijit> intick, no then there is no such app for linux. but you can program in .net using mono. also if you are just looking for that vb 'style' software then try gambas. there is also qtmaker and glade for gui making.
[15:24] <yedek_p2> i use ubuntu 11.04 beta2 updated. How can i make the gnome-panels to do not strt any panel on startup. Because i use awn as default panel. ?
[15:24] <iceroot> yedek_p2: #ubuntu+1
[15:24] <kpettit> DragonKeeper, and if you don't like that you can always do ssh, upnp, ftp, nfs, etc.  There are a bunch of different ways you can connect data from one machine to another
[15:24] <JuNeX> does ubuntu have netOP remote control software? like if my guest is windows XP?
[15:24] <Abhijit> intick, though i am no expert in windows issue. you try asking in ##widows and ##programming
[15:25] <yedek_p2>  iceroot: ok . thank you.
[15:25] <Abhijit> JuNeX, tried teamvier?
[15:25] <JuNeX> does ubuntu have netOP remote control software? like if my guest is windows XP? and im the Host?
[15:25] <kpettit> JuNeX, what is netOP?
[15:25] <xangua> !natty | yedek_p2
[15:25] <JuNeX> @Abhijit nope but i will try it now
[15:25] <Abhijit> intick, ##windows i mean
[15:25] <intick> Abhijit: yes it's more about .NET  so
[15:25] <intick> Abhijit: mono you say ?
[15:25] <Abhijit> intick, if its .net then you can try mono
[15:25] <kpettit> JuNeX, what is it you want the machine to do?  remote control or support desk stuff?
[15:26] <hihihi100> iceroot, coul you please write the full command? Im a noob, what about rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/*  ?
[15:26] <Abhijit> intick, go to ubuntu software ccenter and type word mono
[15:26] <iceroot> hihihi100: what about restoring the trash-icon and use that?
[15:26] <intick> Abhijit: kk find it on synaptic i'll try it thx mate
[15:26] <iceroot> hihihi100: using rm -rf as a "noob" is ALWAYS a bad idea
[15:26] <JuNeX> @kpettit remote & support just for my LAN network..
[15:26] <Shoryu> Ubuntu 10.10 x86: Hi... how do I enable core dumps for just root without logging into root and doing a ulimit -c unlimited? I already set the rules in /etc/security/limits.conf, but they don't seem to have any affect. Reason is I want cron jobs to dump cores if they crash
[15:26] <hihihi100> iceroot, my trash icon is gone since at least 5 weeks, and I cannot acces it, everytime I try it says that nautilus doesnt allow it
[15:27] <Abhijit> iceroot, in 'that' famours dangerous command is that /* or */  ??
[15:27] <kpettit> JuNeX, I like one called SimpleHelp.  it's a web app that uses java to basically do a vnc.  It lets you see os info/stats and remote control.  You can also setup agents and such.
[15:27] <kpettit> If you don't need remote control I like using BigBlueButton which lets you share desktop kind of like a webex.  That ones free/opensource
[15:28] <hihihi100> iceroot, I just tried to add a trash icon to my panel, I cannot
[15:28] <JuNeX> i see. thanks! can i use that in XP too? coz my dad PC is using windows
[15:29] <Aliceleveque> Hey, could someone please help me? I'm trying to print from Ubuntu 10.10 to a printer connected to a Windows 7 deasktop, but all the print jobs are called "remote Downlevel Document, when I go to properties it says the datattype is RAW
[15:29] <Frantic> guys, what's the easiest way to get php 5.2 on ubuntu server 10.10? php5 in the repos is at 5.3 :(
[15:29] <hihihi100> iceroot, I should see a local directory in my file system folder, right? Or do I have to go to usr? (~/.local/share/Trash/)
[15:30] <Shoryu> Anybody know about ulimit?
[15:30] <Abhijit> JuNeX, teamivers runs on mac,win and linux
[15:31] <kpettit> JuNeX, simplehelp or bigbluebutton is cross platform and web based.
[15:31] <JuNeX> Abhijit, i see thanks! by the way where can i get it? software center?
[15:31] <Abhijit> JuNeX, no
[15:31] <Abhijit> JuNeX, http://www.teamviewer.com/en/index.aspx
[15:31] <kpettit> JuNeX, if you just want simple remote control and viewing VNC is the easiest.  VNC is cross platform as well.
[15:31] <JuNeX> kpettit, thanks i will try that one too..
[15:32] <Aliceleveque> Could someone please help me? I'm trying to print from Ubuntu 10.10 to a printer connected to a Windows 7 desktop, but all the print jobs are called "remote Downlevel Document, when I go to properties it says the datatype is RAW
[15:33] <d1gital> I just sent something to the trash, (did not empty it) and when I try to move it back out I get "The URI "trash:///_AIM" does not refer to a valid resource in the trash".  How can I recover the files?
[15:34] <van7hu> hello, is there any option that take 2 arguments in programming?
[15:34] <iceroot> hihihi100: ~/.local/share/Trash/   who is the owner of that dir?
[15:36] <hihihi100> iceroot, you are asking for ls -l right? to do that I have to dir to that directory, right? If i write cd local I get nothing
[15:36] <d1gital> iceroot:  I'm not sure if you meant to help me or someone else, but you solved my problem.  Thanks!
[15:37] <hihihi100> iceroot, ok, I won all of it
[15:37] <hihihi100> i OWN
[15:37] <KNUBBIG> I got the Creative X-Fi drivers installed but now my mic is either not working at all or just repeating what I'm hearing in teamspeak. Any ideas?
[15:37] <hihihi100> me, not root
[15:40] <hihihi100> im in ~/.local/share/Trash in the terminal, how can I empty it? Me, not root, is the owner
[15:40] <terry> Is the -p switch for tar relevant, or does tar preserve permissions anyway?
[15:41] <iceroot> d1gital: great :) and i was not speaking to you :)
[15:41] <ikonia> terry: it's needed
[15:41] <iceroot> hihihi100: cd .local iinstead of cd local
[15:41] <dotblank> hihihi100, you should just be able to rm it
[15:42] <dotblank> hihihi100, rm -r ~/.local/share/Trash/*
[15:42] <dotblank> hihihi100, note it is really really hard to undo that operation
[15:43] <ITO> tu puta madre
[15:43] <red2kic> "rm -ri ~/.local/share/Trash/*" -- Yay! Interactive!
[15:43] <signornessuno> hi
[15:44] <hihihi100> dotblank, inside Trash, ls -l shows expunged, files and info, I should leave that tree structure untouched, if I execut your command, will it leave the folders there?
[15:44] <dotblank> no hihi
[15:44] <Navion>  I'm looking for some very quiet SFF dual core machines I can get refurb'd (cheap). Any recommendations?
[15:44] <dotblank> it will delete them
[15:44] <crescendo> what is this new chromium-browser-l10n shit?
[15:44] <hihihi100> dotblank, ok, so I will go to eaCH OF THE 3 FOLDERS AND CLEAR EM ONE BY ONE
[15:45] <iceroot> crescendo: we dont need that type of language here
[15:45] <hihihi100> sorry for the caps
[15:45] <iceroot> Navion: ##hardware
[15:45] <dotblank> hihihi100, you could use some find magic then pipe it into xargs rm
[15:45] <aeon-ltd> Navion: does it have to be dual core?
[15:45] <signornessuno> i have this error message using synaptic o dpkg  failed to read on buffer copy for elenco dei file del pacchetto "libesd0": Input/output error
[15:45] <LarsTorben> hi
[15:45] <hihihi100> dotblank, im a noob, 1st time i hear of xargs rm
[15:46] <dotblank> hihihi100, its ok to delete those folders those.. if in the future a program needs it.. it will recreate them
[15:46] <aar> iceroot, dpkg -l package name gives:
[15:46] <Navion> aeon-ltd: It's for broadcast automation and there is a lot of real time stuff going on. separate cores allows for some more real time threads.
[15:46] <aar> ii  openjdk-6-jre                 6b20-1.9.7-0ubuntu1~10.04.1   OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspot JIT
[15:47] <red2kic> hihihi100: Look in the Trash -- You don't want to save anything? -- Run "rm -r ~/.local/share/Trash/*" -- Get over with.
[15:47] <KNUBBIG> I got the Creative X-Fi drivers installed but now my mic is either not working at all or just repeating what I'm hearing in teamspeak. Any ideas?
[15:47] <Navion> ireroot: is that the place to look for ubuntu HCL specific stuff?
[15:47] <ruan> where do i put a manually compiled package? it's lablgtk2
[15:47] <LarsTorben> hi ruan
[15:47] <ruan> hi LarsTorben
[15:48] <genii-around> ruan: The usual convention is somewhere like /usr/local/bin
[15:48] <dotblank> ruan, what do you mean manually compilied
[15:48] <red2kic> !hardware | Navion
[15:48] <iceroot> aar: then everything is fine
[15:49] <dotblank> if you use ./configure and make + make install it will place it in /usr/local (by default)
[15:49] <ruan> dotblank: ironically, i had to compile a dev package to compile another program
[15:49] <dotblank> if you use dpkg-buildpackage it should be in /usr
[15:50] <aar> iceroot, yes thanks
[15:50] <Aliceleveque> Could someone please help me? I'm trying to print from Ubuntu 10.10 to a printer connected to a Windows 7 desktop, but all the print jobs are called "remote Downlevel Document, when I go to properties it says the datatype is RAW
[15:50] <dotblank> Aliceleveque, wow.. now that truely is a printer error
[15:50] <hihihi100> ok, done
[15:50] <ruan> where should i put the folder so that it's detected?
[15:50] <andeeeuk> Hey everyone
[15:50] <dotblank> how stereo typical
[15:51] <andeeeuk> has anyone found a way to install flash player in wine?
[15:51] <andeeeuk> i need it for some browsers i have installed
[15:51] <signornessuno> ssuno> i have this error message using synaptic o dpkg  failed to read on buffer copy for elenco dei file del pacchetto "libesd0": Input/output error
[15:52] <ruan> maybe winetricks, maybe a proper install. lemme check wt
[15:52] <xangua> you can install native flash and browsers andeeeuk
[15:52] <dotblank> ruan, it depends on the project and how it is distributed if the program uses pkg-config you shouldn't have to do anything.. if it doesn't and fails to autodetect the include path you will have to manually pass linker and compile flags
[15:52] <ruan> andeeeuk: get winetricks
[15:52] <red2kic> !flash | andeeeuk
[15:52] <ruan> red2kic: it's for wine
[15:52] <crescendo> what is this new chromium-browser-l10n?
[15:53] <ruan> !info chromium-browser-l10n
[15:53] <ruan> language packages, as ubottu says.
[15:53] <fairuz> Hi, How to know the path of an executable that can be used systemwide
[15:53] <genii-around> red2kic: I'm not sure that applies to trying to run flash under wine
[15:53] <fairuz> let say gedit
[15:53] <andeeeuk> thanks guys!
[15:53] <hihihi100> i clicked yes to all those questions while clearing my trash folder, did I f*ck up? http://paste.ubuntu.com/596575/
[15:53] <andeeeuk> I have installed winetrick though can install flash in the browser
[15:53] <ruan> fairuz: whereis [command]
[15:54] <red2kic> genii-around: We can open swf under Mozilla or Chromium?
[15:54] <ruan> fairuz: or package
[15:54] <fairuz> ruan: ty
[15:54] <ruan> fairuz: if you type whereis gedit, it will show you all locations
[15:54] <red2kic> fairuz: which gedit -- that works too
[15:54] <genii-around> red2kic: Yes, but that is not the question they asked. They want Windows flash for browsers they have installed under wine
[15:54] <ruan> which doesnt seem to show as much output as whereis
[15:54] <fairuz> red2kic: ok cool, thanks!
[15:54] <red2kic> Ah.
[15:55] <Bluebill-Wolf> say does anyone know a good site that I can referance for apt-get commands?
[15:55] <ruan> !apt
[15:55] <ruan> Bluebill-Wolf: the link above should explain it
[15:55] <Bluebill-Wolf> as well as how to update firefox >.>
[15:55] <ruan> !ff4
[15:55] <Bluebill-Wolf> thaknks i owe ya a tall cool one
[15:56] <ruan> ff4 will also be in natty which will be released next week
[15:56] <zookalicious> ruan is there a list somewhere of the bang commands you're using?
[15:56] <andeeeuk> xangua: can you install the windows version of flash in the browser then?
[15:56] <ruan> zookalicious: bang?
[15:57] <zookalicious> ! keyword
[15:57] <ruan> uhh there is a command hold on
[15:57] <ruan> also
[15:57] <ruan> !ubottu
[15:57] <ruan> factoids lists em all, there's prbably a search command too
[15:57] <zookalicious> Great thank you!
[15:57] <terry> ikonia: tnx
[15:57] <Kevin`> andeeeuk: what's wrong with adobe's native linux flash that you would want the windows one?
[15:58] <hihihi100> how do I delete the contents of an external HD via terminal?
[15:58] <ruan> possibly !search factoidquery
[15:58] <ruan> formatting via terminal. hmm
[15:58] <Bluebill-Wolf> i'll post it now on my forums
[15:59] <wwwd> I'm trying to get sensors data from my laptop. (HP Pavilion dv7). When I type sensors-detect I get a msg back saying  " No sensors detected...handled by acpi" When I type acpi -t I get no return. Anyone know how to monitor system temp in Ubuntu? btw I can do sensors in opensuse and get system temp.
[15:59] <Aliceleveque> dotblank: I know, any ideas?
[15:59] <Lord_Nikon> hi to all
[15:59] <ruan> wwwd: xsensors?
[15:59] <ruan> !info xsensors
[15:59] <andeeeuk> Kevin`: I need a flash player working in a windows browser. I have installed the windows version of firefox in wine
[16:00] <ruan> andeeeuk: winetricks allows installation of the flash plugin
[16:00] <wwwd> hihihi100: I think it depends why you want to delete data.
[16:00] <andeeeuk> ruan: is there a command i can use as I looked this morning and it was not working
[16:01] <Polah> andeeeuk: Why did you install Firefox for Windows in wine? Firefox runs natively in Linux...
[16:01] <wwwd> I'll check xsensors out thnks.
[16:01] <toad__> silverlight for ubuntu?
[16:01] <Lord_Nikon> @nokitel
[16:01] <ruan> andeeeuk: simply run: wget http://winetricks.org/winetricks && ./winetricks flash
[16:01] <ruan> that'll take care of it
[16:02] <andeeeuk> Polah: I have been trying to get some webconferencing software to run and its not working in linux
[16:02] <Lord_Nikon> @--ccontrol
[16:02] <Lord_Nikon> system contorl everything
[16:02] <elb0w> Gnome3 ubuntu 10.10 thoughts?
[16:02] <Polah> andeeeuk: And it requires Firefox or a web browser?
[16:02] <andeeeuk> ruan: thanks :)
[16:02] <Lord_Nikon> boy's pleace tell my any program for music
[16:02] <andeeeuk> Polah: it needs a web browser
[16:02] <Lord_Nikon> withput vlc
[16:03] <Polah> Lord_Nikon, rhythmbox?
[16:03] <Lord_Nikon> another
[16:03] <ruan> Lord_Nikon: totem, rhythmbox, exaile
[16:04] <Lord_Nikon> aa 10x
[16:04] <ruan> Lord_Nikon: for terminal there is moc
[16:04] <Polah> Lord_Nikon, Banshee, Exaile, totem, Listen
[16:04] <andeeeuk> I receive an sha1sum mismatch when installing with winetricks
[16:04] <andeeeuk> slightly frustrating
[16:04] <ruan> sha1sum mismatch? hmm
[16:04] <ruan> tried again?
[16:04] <LarsTorben> hi
[16:04] <pentester5746> how can I check my memory usage?
[16:04] <Lord_Nikon> 10x dude's
[16:04] <ruan> pentester5746: free
[16:05] <ruan> pentester5746: also, system monitor
[16:05] <ruan> pentester5746: and top, htop
[16:05] <Lord_Nikon> Stereo MC's - Connected (music)
[16:05] <ruan> Lord_Nikon: offtopic here
[16:05] <wwwd> Any idea why sensors-detect tells me there are no sensors and why acpi -t has no return in ubuntu?
[16:05] <ruan> !ot
[16:05] <kpettit> pentester5746, I usually just run "top" from the commandline
[16:06] <pentester5746> upon boot and a 512mb virtualmachine is taking 1.5 gigs or mem
[16:06] <Polah> wwwd: Perhaps you have no sensors?
[16:06] <ruan> wwwd: have you tried xsensors?
[16:06] <wwwd> there is nothing returned
[16:06] <genii-around> I think you need the backend of lm-sensors or so
[16:06] <wwwd> I installed lm-sensros
[16:07] <Oppe> hey, in new ubuntu is there way to install the php5.2 and not php5.3 in which my current softwares don't work?
[16:07] <Oppe> i mean by commands like apt-get install etc.
[16:07] <genii-around> wwwd: Do you have some kernel boot option like acpi=off or noacpi ?
[16:08] <wwwd> Is'nt system monitoring part of the kernel and if so should'nt it wrk the same in ubuntu and opensuse?
[16:08] <wwwd> ginii-around: How would I know that?
[16:09] <ruan> Oppe: you could download the 5.2 package
[16:09] <ruan> or as a very last resort compile the source of 5.2
[16:10] <genii-around> wwwd: grep acpi /boot/grub/grub.cfg           and if you see a line with noacpi or acpi=off   that might be part of the issue
[16:10] <Alkarex> Hello, I need to make a quick demo to illustrate that Ubuntu 11.4 supports multitouch (with a multitouch 3M screen). Does anybody know a multitouch-enabled application on Linux? For instance, is there a Linux version of the classical paint demo drawing several fingers in different colours when they touch the touchscreen? At least, I would need an application illustrating a 2-finger zoom, but I find nothing for Linux. Any idea?
[16:11] <Dr_Willis> Alkarex:  ask in #ubuntu+1 . Ive not seen any Multi touych enabled apps..  Its possible theres a compiz setting for it.
[16:11] <Alkarex> Dr_Willis: Thanks, I will try
[16:12] <wwwd> genii-around: I get no return from grep...
[16:15] <wwwd> genii-around: Does acpi have multiple modules?
[16:15] <wwwd> The only info I am getting back from any option I try is battery
[16:18] <Bluebill-Wolf> somone mind helping me trubel shoot my ustream brodcast?
[16:19] <genii-around> wwwd: Apologies on lag, work required me. acpi has some different modules, yes, although I'm not sure what they all are. I believe it depends on the bios.
[16:19] <wcchandler> Bluebill-Wolf: xbox360?
[16:19] <ubuntunewvie> hi! I want use a 64bits kernel with 32 bits userland. How do I do that with natty?
[16:19] <Bluebill-Wolf> nope lappie
[16:20] <wcchandler> Bluebill-Wolf: Sorry then :(
[16:20] <Bluebill-Wolf> i need to conferm that the feed is working
[16:20] <Bluebill-Wolf> well if you can access ustream than it may work
[16:20] <ar__> Where can I find the ./configure in ubuntu 10.10??
[16:20] <ruan> ar__: in the directory of the application you are compiling
[16:21] <wcchandler> Bluebill-Wolf: I actually misread your sentence, I thought you said ushare, not ustream...  so I'm no help anyways.
[16:21] <Bluebill-Wolf> well then at least tell me this if what i've been hearing is correct
[16:21] <ubuntunewvie> is possible I install 64bits kernel in a 32bits base install?
[16:21] <Bluebill-Wolf> that to enable sterio mix i just need to copy the output tunnel to the input tunnel
[16:23] <john__> Hey everyone, I'm new to this
[16:24] <aeon-ltd> john__: welcome
[16:24] <john__> what's the idea for all of the irc chats?

[16:24] <BlouBlou> !freenode > john__
[16:25] <ar__> I didn't see any ./configure in the package folder. Shouldn't it be located in the /usr/bin folder?
[16:25] <knight19720208> Hi everyone
[16:25] <minimec_> ubuntunewvie: You will not be able to do so, unless you force. It's not possible.
[16:25] <BlouBlou> knight19720208: Hi
[16:25] <aeon-ltd> ar__: no, the configure is a file available in source tar balls
[16:25] <tensorpudding> ar__: what is this now?
[16:26] <knight19720208> Hi BB, do you know about bridge and transparent proxies?
[16:26] <ar__> Thanx!!
[16:26] <knight19720208> I have been trying to make a box that include that functions but I have a problem with the iptables and ebtable
[16:27] <Toxic> hii enybody to help me?
[16:28] <Guest56939> I have some problems with instaling the game called Runes of Magic ... can you help me?! Please
[16:28] <tjiggi_fo> Guest56939, why would you ask a question and then immediately change your nick?
[16:29] <knight19720208> does anyone know about squid, dansguar..., iptables ebtable? Please some help
[16:29] <Guest56939> it changed itself
[16:29] <Pici> tjiggi_fo: its something that happens automatically for nicks that have ENFORCE enabled
[16:29] <Guest56939> i am new user of Ubuntu
[16:29] <tensorpudding> Guest56939: are you sure the game runs on Linux?
[16:30] <andeeeuk> sha1sum mismatch! does anyone receive this error when installing flash player in wine?
[16:30] <Guest56939> yea i saw on youtube...
[16:30] <tjiggi_fo> Guest56939, Pici , I see, my apologies
[16:30] <Guest56939> they say i need to run instalation over Wine..
[16:31] <Guest56939> but i dont know how to use that
[16:31] <tensorpudding> Guest56939: yes, you install wine from software center, just search for it by name
[16:32] <Guest56939> I dont know how!. can u help me with that...
[16:32] <tensorpudding> Guest56939: open the Ubuntu Software Center
[16:32] <tensorpudding> it's under
[16:32] <tensorpudding> Applications
[16:32] <Guest56939> yes i did and i install wine..
[16:32] <Guest56939> and now?
[16:32] <tensorpudding> well, you downloaded the game's installer right?
[16:32] <Guest56939> yes.
[16:32] <tensorpudding> you double click it, and wine will run the installer
[16:33] <tensorpudding> then you just install it normally
[16:33] <ruan> might have to mark it executable
[16:33] <tensorpudding> oh, right
[16:33] <ruan> possibly
[16:34] <Guest56939> yes i marked it.
[16:34] <Guest56939> it started to install..
[16:34] <tensorpudding> okay
[16:34] <ruan> if anything fails, see the appdb
[16:34] <ruan> !appdb
[16:34] <Guest56939> yes and now i got Program Error..
[16:34] <ethenheart> I cannot install ruby mechanize on my ubuntu 9.04 please some one help me.
[16:34] <tensorpudding> you're going to have to check out the appdb and ask them
[16:34] <xangua> ethenheart: upgrade to a supported ubuntu version
[16:35] <Jesse088> i just revieved a brand new i3. im installing on a new mobo. do i need to use TIM or is there already some on the heatsync???
[16:35] <semitones> hey what is the command to install grub to the mbr?
[16:35] <Jesse088> i know that is not ubuntu related but you guys are always so helpful
[16:35] <ruan> grub-install?
[16:36] <ethenheart> xangua: I just cant get zlib file loaded for my gem
[16:36] <xangua> Jesse088: if is not related, then why do you ask¿
[16:36] <xangua> etherneteth0: upgrading to a supported version will fix it
[16:36] <tensorpudding> Jesse088: visually inspect the bottom of the heatsink, does it look like there is thermal paste there? if not, add your own
[16:36] <ruan> Jesse088: is it hardware related? if so, check ##hardware
[16:36] <KNUBBIG> Is there a way to get a microphone attached to a creative X-Fi Fatal1ty with the creative drivers working?
[16:36] <xangua> semitones: trying to install multiple distros on a usb¿
[16:36] <xangua> usb*
[16:37] <Jesse088> tensorpudding, there are three gray areas on the bottom of the heatsink, they are kind of sticky, is this thermal paste?
[16:37] <tensorpudding> Jesse088: you ought to read the manual that the heatsink came with
[16:38] <semitones> xangua, no, I installed natty on a spare partition, which installed its own grub2. I'm trying to reinstall burg to the mbr (it uses all the same commands as grub)
[16:38] <random123> Can someone explain this error http://thebrothersink.com/tmp/ss.jpg ?
[16:38] <semitones> i think I found it -- it's sudo burg-install /dev/sda
[16:38] <semitones> my hdd is called /dev/sda dont' worry
[16:38] <pfifo> where can i find the log of the channel?
[16:38] <Pici> !logs | pfifo
[16:39] <pfifo> ty pici
[16:39] <ruan> random123: try marking it executable
[16:39] <KNUBBIG> random123, sudo chmod +x
[16:39] <ruan> if it tab-autocompletes, then it's executable
[16:40] <ruan> marked executable
[16:40] <KNUBBIG> random123,  you might also have to copy the contents to the (virtual) hdd
[16:40] <perlsyntax> anyone in here use Att there phone as a modem for the internet?
[16:40] <KNUBBIG> Is there a way to get a microphone attached to a creative X-Fi Fatal1ty with the creative drivers working?
[16:41] <nhoc_t39> hi!
[16:41] <KNUBBIG> hi
[16:41] <nhoc_t39> do you know install Flashplayer on Ubuntu
[16:41] <nhoc_t39> help me!
[16:41] <tazz> could you cat me /etc/default/mysql ? (if you have mysql-server installed)
[16:41] <semitones> !flash | nhoc_t39
[16:42] <nhoc_t39> yes
[16:43] <semitones> nhoc_t39, actually that documenation seems a little out of date
[16:43] <semitones> nhoc_t39, just search for "flash" in ubuntu software center, and it will come up
[16:44] <ruan> tazz: i could install mysql-server quickly if it's not too large
[16:44] <viliny> hey huys
[16:45] <tazz> ruan, not needed, i am sure there are people here who have mysql installed :) Thanks for the offer though.
[16:45] <viliny> i made a new user, for my friend, but when he connects via ssh he only sees "$" on his prompt line and no path names or anything instead of the usual "user@server-paths" stuff
[16:45] <viliny> what could be wrong?
[16:46] <Theoretician> Hey I got a quick question, I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 and every once in a while when a lot of CPU is being used, some process will fade and look like it is in shadow. How do I stop this?
[16:46] <LarsTorben> hello
[16:46] <LarsTorben> Theoretician: which ubuntu version
[16:46] <kippi> hey
[16:46] <Theoretician> LarsTorben: 10.10
[16:46] <ruan> tazz: you could also ask in #mysql
[16:46] <LarsTorben> ok 64 or 32 ?? kde or gnome ??
[16:46] <LarsTorben> hi kippi
[16:46] <Theoretician> LaresTorben: 32 bit, kde
[16:47] <LarsTorben> ok
[16:47] <Tyrone> can i ask, i have squid on my ubuntu and if i install firestarter is it ok? it wont be conflict?
[16:47] <LarsTorben> i dont know, kde is much cpu
[16:47] <tazz> ruan, i am pretty sure someone will get up and ask me to go to #ubuntu ;)
[16:47] <Pici> tazz: I have mysql server installed and I don't have that file.
[16:47] <kippi> I installed 11.04 and all went fine, I then did the updates yesterday and now my machine gets stuck on the ubuntu loading logo. If I boot into recovery mode it gets stuck when you get the options, anyideas?
[16:47] <Theoretician> LarsTorben: do you recommend switching to gnome?
[16:47] <LarsTorben> whats your pc ?
[16:47] <Theoretician> LarsTorben: its a Dell
[16:48] <ruan> my pc is a pc too
[16:48] <LarsTorben> memory ? ram ? Theoretician
[16:48] <Pici> kippi : Natty/11.04 is not yet released. Please join #ubuntu+1 for further support and discussion.
[16:48] <van7hu> the boy is a boy :)
[16:48] <maco> Theoretician: the shadow thing is probably a feature in kwin similar to the one in compiz where applications that are non-responsive get dimmed
[16:48] <Theoretician> LarsTorben: Its not mine, i dont know the details about it
[16:49] <Theoretician> maco: ah, is there any way to stop it?
[16:49] <LarsTorben> okay but do you know how old is it ? Theoretician
[16:49] <maco> Theoretician: to stop the dimming or the non-responsiveness of the application?
[16:49] <Theoretician> LarsTorben: maybe 5 years?
[16:49] <Theoretician> maco: just the dimming
[16:49] <LarsTorben> i would recommend switch du lXDE lubuntu Theoretician
[16:49] <LarsTorben> du = to
[16:50] <maco> Theoretician: let me check my settings
[16:50] <maco> LarsTorben: i have a 5 year old laptop running 11.04 Kubuntu just fine
[16:50] <Theoretician> LarsTorben: ok, thanks
[16:50] <maco> LarsTorben: er no 10.10. didnt upgrade that one yet
[16:50] <maco> the 3 year old is on 11.04
[16:50] <pentester5746> on a <IP_ADDRESS> subnet what is the "/24" mean
[16:50] <LarsTorben> maco and ??
[16:51] <LarsTorben> i meant Theoretician
[16:51] <maco> LarsTorben: 5 years ain't that old?
[16:51] <ayecee> pentester5746: <IP_ADDRESS> is not a subnet
[16:51] <LarsTorben> MACO: yes.
[16:51] <LarsTorben> its very very old
[16:52] <pentester5746> ayecee: ok i am setting up openvpn, what would be a good subnet to not interfere with 192.168.XXX.XXX
[16:52] <ayecee> pentester5746: it may be an ip address WITHIN a <IP_ADDRESS>/24 subnet
[16:52] <Theoretician> LarsTorben: I disagree. I am running Ubuntu 10.10 on a 20 year old computer my dad built from scratch and it works fine
[16:52] <Elirips> Hello all. How can I check which version of ubutnu that I have?
[16:52] <ayecee> Elirips: lsb_version
[16:52] <ayecee> oops
[16:52] <maco> LarsTorben: tell that to my pentium 2 that only finally kicked the bucket in december
[16:53] <LarsTorben> 20 years ?!?!?
[16:53] <DJones> Neoti: Can!version | Elirips
[16:53] <ruan> lsb release something
[16:53] <LarsTorben> i dont think so
[16:53] <ruan> !version
[16:53] <DJones> !version | Elirips
[16:53] <Theoretician> LarsTorben: yeah. It is ancient
[16:53] <maco> Theoretician: im not sure where the setting is, sorry. i normally have desktop effects turned off
[16:53] <Theoretician> maco: ok thanks anyway
[16:53] <nmvictor> Will the next version of ubuntu ship Gnome3?
[16:53] <maco> Theoretician: poke around in system settings -> desktop effects, i guess
[16:53] <ruan> nmvictor: it won't ship it, but it may allow it to be installed
[16:53] <DJones> nmvictor: No it won't, it uses Unity or a fall back of gnome 2
[16:54] <Elirips> Thank you! Nowthat I see that I have 10.04, how to upgrade to 10.10?
[16:54] <Theoretician> maco: ok, will do
[16:54] <Tyrone> can i ask, i have squid on my ubuntu and if i install firestarter is it ok? it wont be conflict?
[16:54] <red2kic> !upgrade | Elirips
[16:54] <ruan> Elirips: you don't have to upgrade yet though
[16:54] <LarsTorben> omg
[16:54] <maco> Theoretician: there are a few effects that involve dimming windows.  turning off excessive effects will get you more responsiveness too, as will turning off system settings -> desktop search
[16:55] <Theoretician> maco: ok, I will poke around and try some things
[16:55] <red2kic> Elirips: It's *just* me (and some for others) that we prefer clean installation over upgrades. You're on LTS (10.04) so you don't have to upgrade for more than a year.
[16:55] <nmvictor> DJones: Haa, unity? I hear it doesnt support Compiz? Is that still the case, if so I'd rather fall back to Gnome 2 or rely on HOWTOs to get Gnome 3 work(if ever)
[16:55] <ruan> also, 11.04 is coming up really soon
[16:55] <Roasted> pretty sure compiz works in unity
[16:56] <Roasted> which was the argument against gnome shell, as gnome shell didnt support compiz originally
[16:56] <Elirips> ruan, red2kic, I hope, that in 10.10 the package python-scipy is a little bit newer.. That could maybe save me some time ..
[16:56] <Roasted> not sure if that has changed, though
[16:56] <xangua> nmvictor: unity from natty uses compiz
[16:56] <Pici> !natty
[16:56] <Roasted> man. that's only a few days away.
[16:56] <nmvictor> xangua: Good news,
[16:56] <red2kic> !info python-scipy maverick | Elirips
[16:56] <nhoc_t39> thu dam
[16:56] <red2kic> Elirips: What version are you on (in 10.04).
[16:56] <Pici> Can we move the Natty/Unity discussion to #ubuntu+1 to keep #ubuntu clear for people that want support for current releases? Thanks.
[16:56] <ruan> !info python-scipy natty
[16:57] <red2kic> !info python-scipy lucid
[16:57] <Pici> !msgthebot
[16:57] <Elirips> red2kic, atm, i Have 0.7.0
[16:57] <red2kic> Elirips: I see that. See above (version release for maverick + natty).
[16:57] <Elirips> red2kic, and there are some symbols missing, that I need, I could either painfully compile the source manually, or just hope upgrading will work
[16:57] <Elirips> red2kic, thanks for your help, i'll try to upgrade
[16:58] <martin_> Is rhere a list of supported wifi cards for ubuntu 10.10
[16:58] <ruan> !hardware
[16:58] <red2kic> Elirips: I'd suggest for you to find PPA if it exists.
[16:58] <Elirips> red2kic, PPA?
[16:58] <ruan> !ppa
[17:00] <iqpi> does anybody know how can I difference between a hybrid .iso file and another that is not hybrid?
[17:01] <ruan> not sure what 'hybrid' means
[17:01] <red2kic> multiarch, I guess.
[17:01] <ikonia> there isn't an official multiarch image
[17:02] <red2kic> ruan: Apparently it mean ISO for disc and IMG for usb.
[17:02] <Pici> iqpi: Are you asking about an Ubuntu cd image? or just in general?
[17:05] <iqpi> Pici: in general, i know that ubuntu images are not hibrid (or i think so)
[17:08] <Dr_Willis> could be its a APPLE and nonapple iso/disk.
[17:08] <Dr_Willis> ive seen game disks that way befor.
[17:09] <andrea_> can anyone help my, im having trouble with my sound input
[17:09] <Dr_Willis> ive also seen cd music + cd data disks.
[17:09] <Vizzl3> Does anyone know how to completely flush all static ip routes from 10.04? (I've tried {ip route del ipaddr dev ipaddr dev eth0} but it just repopulates with old routes moments later)
[17:09] <andrea_> it only works when I amplify the receiver all the way, and even then it's very weak
[17:10] <Dr_Willis> andrea_:  try the alsa-mixer program and be sure all the sliders are slid up perhaps.
[17:10] <Dr_Willis> or was it alsamixer
[17:10] <nakaori> alsamixer
[17:10] <ruan> alsamixer
[17:10] <tyler_d> I'm trying to get the title of "gnome-terminal" to display the host of servers; even when I am ssh'd into other machines
[17:11] <pfifo> Vizzl3, im pretty sure you have to remove them from /etc/network/interface otherwise they'll get added back in automatically
[17:11] <Dr_Willis> tyler_d:  you would need to set the bash prompt to send the proper escape codes I belive.
[17:11] <tyler_d> really?
[17:11] <Dr_Willis> tyler_d:  if you are sshing  - then the prompt for the sshed box would be sending the coded.
[17:11] <Dr_Willis> tyler_d:  check the bash prompt howto at tldp.org :)
[17:12] <Dr_Willis> If theres any other way to do it.. i dont know of it tyler_d
[17:12] <pkkm> How to move a logical partition out of extended partition?
[17:12] <andrea_> I downloaded another program pulseAudio, the sliders are all the way up but it's very weak
[17:12] <tyler_d> Dr_Willis: I set it in "Title and Command" and set the "Initial title:" to `hostname`
[17:12] <bastidrazor> tyler_d: it should do it automatically, on 10.04 mine does and have not tweaked anything in that aspect.
[17:12] <nhoc_t39> do you know install Flashplayer for Firefox in Ubuntu?help me!
[17:12] <nhoc_t39> do you know install Flashplayer for Firefox in Ubuntu?help me!
[17:12] <Dr_Willis> tyler_d:  the esc code method would work with any terminal program (in theory)
[17:12] <tyler_d> bastidrazor: can you confirm your setting in "title and command" for me please?
[17:12] <andrea_> will alsa-mixer configure my driver settings?
[17:12] <xangua> nhoc_t39: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[17:12] <pfifo> tyler_d, you can always set it manually
[17:12] <Vizzl3> pfifo, I've removed the references to the old routes from /etc/network/interfaces but they still get repopulated
[17:13] <atlef> !flash | nhoc_t39
[17:13] <LAcan_> guys my google results come back in a foreign language... the results are english but all the meta like date etc are in... cyrillic or something. know how i can fix it?
[17:13] <tyler_d> pfifo: I do; but that defeats the purpose of the question right
[17:13] <bastidrazor> tyler_d: Replace Initial Title
[17:13] <pfifo> Vizzl3, are you using the network-manager applet?
[17:13] <tyler_d> bastidrazor: ty
[17:14] <victorhugo289> Hello, how can I put a program on the menu?
[17:14] <Vizzl3> pfifo, are you referring to system-->pref-->network connections gui?
[17:14] <bastidrazor> tyler_d: under command only Update login records.... is checkecked
[17:14] <victorhugo289> I mean a program that I run on the terminal, like "top"
[17:14] <Vizzl3> pfifo, are you referring to system-->pref-->network connections gui? (pfifo)
[17:15] <tyler_d> bastidrazor: it is.. still no joy
[17:15] <pfifo> Vizzl3, yes
[17:15] <ben42> hi, how do i get back the volume control on the ppanel ?
[17:16] <bastidrazor> tyler_d: the hosts i connect to i have an entry for them in /etc/hosts.. not sure if that makes the difference
[17:16] <xangua> ben42: add indicator to the panel
[17:16] <Vizzl3> pfifo, i never did before (this has been up and running with bonded nics for a while) but now that i look it has shown up with 'auto ethernet' and 'auto eth2'
[17:16] <ben42> xangua, indeed, thx
[17:17] <chegibari> Hello
[17:17] <ModFather> Hey There Guys, i have an Ubuntu Linux Box, and i want to Tar a folder that had folders and subfolders inside, the overal size is 60Giga and is not possible to Download it at once, is it possible to make the Tar In Pieces? Thanks a lot, any help would be appriciate
[17:17] <nhoc_t39> not succes
[17:17] <pfifo> Vizzl3, Ive always found that program to trump anything i do with ip, resolv.conf and interfaces. Perhaps try adjusting your settings there or remove it from your system
[17:18] <chegibari> Is there a way to download a great number of ubuntu packages and install them locally?
[17:18] <chegibari> I don't have a stable internet connection...
[17:18] <Vizzl3> pfifo, if i just delete these two listings form network connections, it'll work?
[17:19] <pfifo> Vizzl3, im not sure, i always opt to remove the entire thing when its not doing what I want, so dont really know alot about it.
[17:20] <nhoc_t39> do you know install Flashplayer for Firefox in Ubuntu?help me!
[17:20] <ravidar> hello!
[17:20] <aeon-ltd> !flash | nhoc_t39
[17:21] <atlef> !flash > nhoc_t39
[17:21] <tjiggi_fo> nhoc_t39, what is your home language?
[17:21] <galeon> chegibari, you may use Synaptic, then "File"->"Generate package download script"
[17:22] <thedoot00> Hi guys! How are you?
[17:22] <thedoot00> First time for me here
[17:22] <thedoot00> I'm searching help. I'm creating a digital board game about the Open Source and I need help to create the questions. Someone want help me? It's a cool project ;)
[17:22] <chegibari> galeon: I can only download stuff in an internet cafe where I can't run arbitrary linux scripts
[17:22] <FloodBot2> thedoot00: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:23] <ModFather> How i can make my tar file into pieces of 15G each one?
[17:23] <bastidrazor> thedoot00: the awesome brains in #ubuntu-offtopic may be able to help.
[17:23] <genii-around> thedoot00: You would probably be better off to ask in #ubuntu-offtopic , this channel is primarily for support
[17:23] <galeon> chegibari: You may update the package list using your own internet connection, download the packages from another computer, then copy them to cache. You may edit the script to create a batch script for Windows.
[17:24] <thedoot00> thanks guys
[17:24] <galeon> chegibari: You may still use wget for Windows.
[17:24] <thedoot00> I'll check it out
[17:24] <pfifo> ModFather, check out the program "split"
[17:25] <andrea_> I tried using Alsa, pulseAudio, and the standard volume control, and I can only get the mic to work slightly. Does anyone know what might be wrong
[17:26] <Bluebill-Wolf> say whats the command for finding out a version?
[17:26] <Bluebill-Wolf> in thermanal
[17:26] <Vizzl3> pfifo, delete from synatpic package manager?
[17:26] <pfifo> andrea_, check your input controls, should be an option for it in the gui, if not, run alsamixer and press tab
[17:27] <chegibari> galeon: ah it's a wget script. I may try that then. Thank!
[17:27] <pfifo> Vizzl3, yes, i think its spt-get remover gnome-network-applet
[17:27] <theos> hi! i have an hp laptop. using ubuntu 10.04. it has a subwoofer. how can i test if the subwoofer is working or not?
[17:27] <chegibari> galeon: there are no big images with extra packages to download?
[17:27] <galeon> chegibari: By the way, the cache is in /var/cache/apt/archives, I also used to do that.
[17:27] <pfifo> Vizzl3, apt-get remove gnome-network-applet
[17:27] <minion35> does anyone know the command to configure snmpd without manually editing the file?
[17:27] <galeon> For ubuntu, as far as I know, none.
[17:27] <andrea_> pfifo the input sliders in all three programs are all the way up
[17:28] <chegibari> galeon: ok. thanks for all the tips
[17:28] <sipior> theos: crank up the bass, i would imagine.
[17:28] <Bluebill-Wolf> say whats the command for finding out a version a program is in the termanal?
[17:28] <pfifo> andrea_, no idea then, that always worked for me.
[17:28] <KM0201> Bluebill-Wolf: usually programname --ver
[17:28] <theos> sipior, well the bass can be heard from other speakers too :D cant identify
[17:28] <mordof> trying to use isomaster, and upon trying to load an iso, it says "Failed to read directory tree: 'No posix extensions found'"  now.. i'm guessing that means i need to install something to enable this
[17:28] <arand> ModFather: Alternatively http://paulbradley.tv/44/
[17:28] <mordof> but i can't seem to find anything. anyone have any input on this?
[17:29]  * Bluebill-Wolf nods thanks
[17:29] <andrea_> pfifo do you how I do I find out what sound card /driver I have
[17:29] <Vizzl3> pfifo, i don't have that package installed
[17:29] <d1gital> I'm about to upgrade from Hardy to Natty, keeping my /home.  Should I wipe out the config files from the home directories?  If so, will "rm -rf /home/*/.*" do the trick?
[17:30] <pfifo> Andre_Gondim, `lspci` will give you the chipset and `lsmod` will tell you the module name
[17:30] <sipior> theos: put your hand in front of the subwoofer, and crank up the bass until you can feel the air move.
[17:30] <pfifo> andrea_, `lspci` will give you the chipset and `lsmod` will tell you the module name
[17:30] <galeon> Bluebill-Wolf: You may also need to use "--version" or "--help", depending on the program.
[17:30] <mordof> trying to edit an ISO.. no idea how, anyone know of a program or a way to do this?
[17:30]  * Bluebill-Wolf nods
[17:30] <theos> sipior, i tried doing it but could feel nothing
[17:31] <theos> couldnt*
[17:31] <arand> d1gital: That I think is not necessarily reqiured, I would rather keep all and delete only specific bits..
[17:31] <atlef> mordof, acetoniso
[17:31] <tjiggi_fo> andrea_, in alsamixer F6 will show you a list of souncard(s)
[17:31] <atlef> *acetoneiso
[17:31] <Bluebill-Wolf> is playonlinux better then wine when useing programs?
[17:31] <mordof> atlef: that allows you to modify the contents?
[17:31] <galeon> mordof: There is also isomaster
[17:32] <mordof> galeon: trying to use that, but i'm getting an error i can't figure out
[17:32] <tjiggi_fo> andrea_, also press F5 to show all available sliders
[17:32] <pfifo> Vizzl3, then im probbally getting the name wrong dpkg -l will give you the list of installed packages
[17:32] <mordof> galeon: tells me no posix extensions found when i try and open an iso
[17:32] <coz_> Bluebill-Wolf,  I would guess close to the same thing... one for games specifically
[17:32] <arand> Bluebill-Wolf: It is a wrapper for wine, so may simplify configuration somewhat.

[17:32] <andrea_> tjiggi_fo the Gnome alsa mixer is not responding to F5 or F6*
[17:33] <coz_> andrea_,  no  open a terminal   type   alsamixer
[17:33] <minion35> Bluebill-Wolf - depends on what programs your looking to run, for games with a native installer, doom3 quake 4 etc yes, but it uses wine for other programs such as office etc.
[17:33] <coz_> andrea_,  they hit F6
[17:33] <tjiggi_fo> andrea_, what coz_  said
[17:33] <Bluebill-Wolf> i was thinking along the lines of the game "shark attack"
[17:35] <andrea_> all my audio card says is HDA Intel without a specific name, can that be right
[17:35] <minion35> Bluebill-Wolf: Don't know about that game off the top of my head, and I cant find it in the winehq site so i would suggest trying it with wine yourself and reporting to winehq if it works or what does and doesnt work.
[17:36] <Bluebill-Wolf> you got it
[17:36] <Bluebill-Wolf> . . . it says its missing a libary
[17:36] <Bluebill-Wolf> one moment i'll post the messge
[17:36] <galeon> mordof: is that error always shows up in all iso files you tried to open?
[17:36] <tjiggi_fo> andrea_, you don't have "default"?
[17:36] <mordof> galeon: yep
[17:37] <mordof> galeon: well, i'll try something considerably different and see
[17:37] <minion35> mordof: have you tried it with other programs?
[17:37] <mordof> minion35: i don't know of any other programs that can modify an iso
[17:37] <mordof> minion35: i've used the iso for burning/mounting and installing in a VM though - if you're wondering if it's corrupted, it's not
[17:37] <mordof> it works
[17:38] <galeon> mordof: Had you tried reinstalling isomaster?
[17:38] <Vizzl3> pfifo, i found four listings: one network manager framework daemon, gnome frontend, pptp plugin and pptp plugin/gnome ui) i take it the daemon needs to be deleted along with the other three?
[17:38] <mordof> hmm
[17:38] <mordof> galeon: a different iso opens :\ that's rediculous
[17:39] <mordof> galeon: an iso without a bootable section mind you - and a windows one at that
[17:39] <lionzw> is it dangerous to install applications via apt-get where there is a warning about security. i'm talking about codecs for dvd, mp3 and other items not supported by ubuntu?
[17:39] <theos> hi! i have an hp laptop. using ubuntu 10.04. it has a subwoofer. how can i test if the subwoofer is working or not?
[17:39] <minion35> mordof: have you tried kriso? its in the repos I think it allows you to edit it.
[17:39] <mordof> minion35: will do
[17:39] <minion35> lionzw: no its fine
[17:39] <Vizzl3> lionzw, yeah its safe as long as its a trusted source (reputable website)
[17:39] <mordof> minion35: not in the repos
[17:39] <DRDRoDRo> hey dude man
[17:39] <bedjoe000> hi all i'm new in ubuntu
[17:39] <dyllan> Hi guys, where do i get support for Ubuntu LTSP ?
[17:39] <DRDRoDRo> welcome dude man
[17:40] <DRDRoDRo> welcome to the ubuntu dude
[17:40] <pfifo> Vizzl3, that sounds like the correct package, if you remove the base package, apt will tell you what deps are no longer needed, so you could them go remove them.
[17:40] <mordof> minion35: you sure you typed it right? not getting anything even in google under that name
[17:41] <minion35> mordof: sorry type its kiso
[17:41] <zaksoldier> hi
[17:41] <GreenNerd> What command do I use to update to Firefox 4?  I downloaded it from their site, but I am struggling to understand what I'm supposed to do.
[17:41] <ruan> !ff4
[17:41] <mordof> minion35: grabbing it now
[17:41] <zaksoldier> how to repair the ubuntu 10.10
[17:41] <zaksoldier> is there code
[17:42] <minion35> mordof: good, hope it works man.
[17:42] <minion35> zaksoldier: whats wrong with it?
[17:42] <rumpe1> lionzw, the warnings arent about security but about licence issues
[17:42] <DRDRoDRo> xDxD
[17:42] <mordof> minion35: likewise, heh.. i got OS X 10.6 running in VBox, but i can't drop the EFI boot disc.. so i'm trying to change the resolution based on the data in the boot disc, lol
[17:42] <soreau> GreenNerd: Just use the ppa to install ff4
[17:42] <soreau> way easier
[17:42] <mordof> minion35: the boot disc keeps resetting it afterall
[17:43] <lionzw> rumpel there are security related warnings also, in the sources file
[17:43] <minion35> mordof: Sounds like a horrible way of changing res.
[17:43] <mordof> minion35: indeed, but it won't matter once it's changed - i don't intend on constantly resizing it
[17:43] <galeon> mordof: If you're trying to open a Windows installer ISO, I won't recommend isomaster.
[17:43] <GreenNerd> soreau, PPA?
[17:44] <mordof> galeon: nothing to do with Windows, trying to open an EFI boot disc
[17:44] <soreau> ! ppa | GreenNerd
[17:44] <mordof> minion35: worked :D
[17:44] <galeon> mordof: ah, ok.
[17:44] <minion35> mordof: glad to hear. :)
[17:44] <zaksoldier> some times after the pc not properly shutdown and startup it says the ****** applet like this delete or not delete

[17:47] <lionzw> well i'm paying one dollar per bloody five megs here in zimbabwe (CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT!) does anyone know on average how many megs per hour of bandwidth to idle in this channel?
[17:48] <KM0201> lionzw: probbaly enough that i wouldn't do it.
[17:48] <sipior> lionzw: i'm guessing not very many.
[17:48] <ruan> irc doesnt take much bandwidth
[17:48] <KM0201> yeah, its just text, so.. in theory, it should be fairly low.
[17:48] <mordof> minion35: opened it.. didn't save the ISO or manage it very well ;_;
[17:49] <red2kic> five megs? as in 5MB?
[17:49] <KM0201> red2kic: i was wondering fi that wsa a typo as well.
[17:49] <theos> lionzw, see the raw data/log. you wont use irc after that. but its just text dont worry :)
[17:49] <HypothesisFrog> hi. Where would an audio CD be on my file system? I have it inserted, it shows up on my desktop, but there's nothing in /cdrom .
[17:49] <Vizzl3> pfifo, now upon a /etc/init.d/networking restart --> SIOCADDRT: No such process Failed to bring up bond0
[17:49] <red2kic> KM0201: Indeed. If that's true, I wouldn't idle. Not for half hour.
[17:49] <minion35> mordof: sorry man only thing I can think of.
[17:50] <lionzw> yes
[17:50] <red2kic> Get in. Discuss. Get out.
[17:50] <KM0201> red2kic: i wouldn't idle for 10min... i'd take up model airplanes.. it'd be cheaper.
[17:50] <minion35> HtpothesisisFrog: Places > Computer > CD/DVD Drive.
[17:50] <Vizzl3> pfifo, I've had this problem before and I've scoured the forums looking for an answer
[17:50] <lionzw> just dont portscan me once i leave anyway later
[17:50] <HypothesisFrog> minion35 thanks but I want to be able to find it via the terminal
[17:51] <HypothesisFrog> what's its location?
[17:51] <galeon> mordof: Maybe you need to tweak some options? Because windows iso's needs a lot of tweaking to work.
[17:51] <KM0201> lol
[17:51] <minion35> HypothesisFrog: cd /media
[17:51] <GreenNerd> What command do I use to update to Firefox 4?  I downloaded it from their site, but I am struggling to understand what I'm supposed to do.
[17:51] <theos> hi! i have an hp laptop. using ubuntu 10.04. it has a subwoofer. how can i test if the subwoofer is working or not?
[17:51] <ruan> !ff4 | GreenNerd
[17:51] <mordof> galeon: again, this has -nothing- to do with Windows
[17:51] <HypothesisFrog> minion35 it's not there
[17:51] <pfifo> Vizzl3, sounds like you may have removed something important. what all did you remover?
[17:51] <mordof> galeon: this is a nawcomModCD
[17:52] <mordof> EFI boot disk
[17:52]  * KM0201 <3's FF4
[17:52] <mordof> galeon: completely unrelated to windows
[17:52] <HypothesisFrog> minion35 it appears on my desktop, but I can't find it in the terminal
[17:52] <minion35> HypothesisFrog: check the desktop.
[17:52] <Vizzl3> pfifo, only network manager and its associated packages (4 in total)
[17:52] <galeon> mordof: I mean some type of ISO's needs some options, not only Windows ISO's.
[17:52] <HypothesisFrog> minion35 see above
[17:52] <GreenNerd> ruan, Can you give me "the command" that can do this?  I do not understand how PPA works.
[17:52] <Vizzl3> how can i completely reset everything related to networking including static routes without reinstalling os?
[17:52] <minion35> HypothesisFrog: cd /home/"yourusername"/Desktop
[17:52] <ruan> GreenNerd: it gives you the command: sudo add-apt-repository  ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable && sudo apt-get update && sudo  apt-get install firefox
[17:52] <mordof> galeon: possibly.. but i have no idea what those would be or how to put them into place
[17:52] <Vizzl3> pfifo, how can i completely reset everything related to networking including static routes without reinstalling os?
[17:53] <galeon> mordof: Is it an OS X boot disk?
[17:53] <pfifo> Vizzl3, add those packages back in
[17:53] <mordof> galeon: *nods*
[17:53] <HypothesisFrog> minion35 I can't find the file system location for it there either.
[17:54] <mordof> galeon: i wonder if OS X has an iso modifier
[17:54] <mordof> for it
[17:54] <mordof> that'd probably be more reliable, lol
[17:54] <minion35> HypothesisFrog: cd /dev/cdrom ?
[17:55] <kazuki_> what do you guys think of gnome3?
[17:55] <kurth> hello all
[17:55] <HypothesisFrog> minion35 bash: cd: /dev/cdrom: Not a directory
[17:55] <kurth> I'm having a bit of an odd problem with the 11.04 installer
[17:55] <kazuki_> ok
[17:56] <ruan> HypothesisFrog: cd /media && ls
[17:56] <Vizzl3> pfifo, no address with hostname, i can't retrive any packages because i can't connect to the internet
[17:56] <galeon> mordof: I'll try searching in google.
[17:56] <Vizzl3> pfifo, *retrieve
[17:56] <kurth> in a nutshell, it does not progress pass the "slideshow" portion of the install....it just sits there, doing nothing.  There are no processes that are active, no net traffic....very odd.  Any help?
[17:56] <HypothesisFrog> ruan it's not in there
[17:57] <HypothesisFrog> ruan it's not in /cdrom either
[17:57] <minion35> HypothesisFrog: did you run Ruan's full command?
[17:57] <HypothesisFrog> ruan gnome desktop has loaded it, and it appears in nautilus. But I just want to work out where the filesystem location is.
[17:57] <pfifo> Vizzl3, use ip to setup your network
[17:58] <HypothesisFrog> minion35 yessir. It ain't in /media as I said before.
[17:58] <Pici> HypothesisFrog: Music CDs are not mounted normally. Your applications play music directly from their /dev/ entry.
[17:59] <HypothesisFrog> Pici oh ok. What do I do if I really want access to the .wav files on there?
[17:59] <Dr_Willis> theres fake ways of mounting a audio cd. so it appears as a bunch of wav or mp3 or other type files ive seen
[18:00] <pfifo> Vizzl3, but well, to get rid of that error, you need to modify networking startup scripts to your needs, right now its still using its setup for network daemon
[18:01] <rizz1> hello
[18:03] <Dr_Willis> hi
[18:03] <rizz1> anyone know to open files on a locked microSD card
[18:03] <Dr_Willis> locked as in write-protected?

[18:06] <galeon> ah ok, thanks

[18:14] <Kage> is 11.04 out yet?
[18:14] <ThinkT510> !11.04 | kage
[18:15] <Logan_> !pl | ubuntu
[18:15] <Kage> ThinkT510: alright, thanks
[18:15] <ThinkT510> Kage: np
[18:15] <ubuntu> i need some help
[18:15] <ubuntu> or some information
[18:15] <bedjoe000> is there anyone here from indonesia ????
[18:16] <Logan_> !indonesia | bedjoe000
[18:16] <zaksoldier> hi
[18:16] <ThinkT510> ubuntu: what do you need help with?
[18:16] <Kage> ThinkT510: about time for a reinstall... can't wait :)
[18:16] <zaksoldier> is there any code
[18:16] <zaksoldier> for repair ubuntu 10.10
[18:17] <ubuntu> i have a win on my computer and i want instal ubuntu
[18:17] <bedjoe000> hahaha... okay thanks a lot dude, are u from indonesia ?
[18:17] <Kage> though.... debian does look interesting... maybe Ill put it on my laptop
[18:17] <sipior> zaksoldier: i'm sure there's code, somewhere. care to be more specific about the problem you're having?
[18:17] <Adom> having a problem formatting an external drive using Disk Utility, says drive is busy no matter what i do. need a command-line command to force reformat of the drive. drive has two partitions, so location is /dev/sdb, /dev/sdb1, and /dev/sdb2.
[18:17] <Logan_> bedjoe000: Nope - just the bot response. :)
[18:17] <ThinkT510> !install | ubuntu
[18:17] <ubuntu> on hard drive I have 3 partition
[18:17] <kl_> bedjoe000: It is a bot
[18:18] <ThinkT510> Kage: i'm looking forward to xubuntu myself, more of an xfce guy
[18:18] <zaksoldier> maybe on the F1 while boot
[18:19] <ubuntu> on 1 i want ubuntu, but 2 other i want to keep safe
[18:19] <Kage> ThinkT510: I use kubuntu... but the issue I have... is I install a lot of packages, 90% I never use more then once... so about 6 months, a reinstall is nice because I have a fresh system :)
[18:19] <amin_> hi  about virtual box I have this Q? if you have installed freebsd for example in the ext4 drive does this mean that the  amount of hard which you determined while installation would change from ext4 to ufts which is the bsd filesystem???
[18:19] <zaksoldier> ubuntu : is it good to install ubuntu 10.10 with windows
[18:20] <Kage> ThinkT510: of course, I backup all my personal data
[18:20] <erUSUL> amin_: no
[18:20] <tew88> Fullscreen Flash playback is really quite choppy. Are there any well-known fixes for this problem? Ubuntu 10.10.
[18:20] <ThinkT510> !partition | ubuntu
[18:20] <bedjoe000> i'm dual booting my ubuntu with windows
[18:20] <erUSUL> amin_: you have a file in the ext4 filesystem that contains the ufs filesystem
[18:21] <ThinkT510> Kage: i keep my personal files on a seperate partition, nothing to backup really, then fresh install every release
[18:21] <ubuntu> do ubuntu work with ntfs?
[18:21] <amin_> you mean ctually no changer in the actual hard drive file sytem would happen
[18:21] <zaksoldier> on ext3
[18:21] <red2kic> Kage: Debian is nice. You get that gnome-desktop environment with slightly few more packages.
[18:21] <Kage> ThinkT510: I do to, but even the home directory gets dirty after awhile
[18:21] <ThinkT510> ubuntu: you can access ntfs partitions but you can't install onto ntfs
[18:21] <red2kic> Kage: Dirty? As in too many .hidden folders?
[18:21] <Kage> red2kic: yes
[18:22] <Kage> for example
[18:22] <zaksoldier> but with windows he will make a file inside it is ext3
[18:22] <Kage> and too much in Downloads/
[18:22] <ubuntu> read and write?
[18:22] <ThinkT510> ubuntu: yes, with ntfs-3g
[18:22] <red2kic> Kage: Heh. If you have the folders exposed, you get the mentality of dirty folders. Sure, clean them out every 6 months, not every day.
[18:22] <zaksoldier> on ext3 man
[18:23] <red2kic> Kage: I have ~/Downloads and ~/Cesspool
[18:23] <ubuntu> many thanks ThinkT510
[18:23] <ThinkT510> ubuntu: no problem
[18:23] <Kage> red2kic: I really like to know what every file in my ~ is for
[18:25] <ThinkT510> Kage: you'll get the hang of it over time, i learned a lot when installing arch
[18:25] <red2kic> Kage: Me too. Don't go after them too much. Files can overwrite files all times. I don't care.
[18:25] <Kage> ThinkT510: well I have been using Linux for....
[18:25]  * Kage counts on his fingers
[18:25] <Kage> 9 years
[18:26] <Kage> ThinkT510: I have used almost every distro you could think of minus Slackware and Arch
[18:26]  * CrowX- gives Kage a medal
[18:26] <Kage> though I hear lots of good things about Arch
[18:26] <zaksoldier> i think thats a code in the F1 to repair
[18:26] <red2kic> Kage: Even gentoo?
[18:26] <Kage> red2kic: yes, even gentoo
[18:26] <Kage> for 6 months
[18:26] <red2kic> Kage: You compiled everything or you used some kind of LiveCD?
[18:27] <aeon-ltd> Kage: heh only ever used *buntus and arch properly the rest i used dumped in less than 1 hour, i found arch was all i needed
[18:27] <Kage> red2kic: until I relized I compiled things more then I used my computer
[18:27] <Kage> red2kic: I compiled everything
[18:27] <ohsix> is there any way to change how many entries the run dialogue keeps? (alt+f2) i dug around gconf and couldn't find anything
[18:27] <ikonia> any reason this is being discussed in #ubuntu rather than #ubuntu-offtopic ?
[18:27] <ThinkT510> Kage: that explains a bit, slack and arch tend not to hide configuration and actively encourage it, much like the bsds, but gentoo should have taught you quite a bit
[18:27] <CrowX-> ikonia, probably cause 'ubuntu-offtopic' is too long to type to join :p
[18:27] <Kriss-|-> Greetings, I'm trying to a "cp -R -p /* /media/newdisc/" to move the ubuntu installation to another drive, and i get: "preserving permissions for `/media/SYS/dev/sr0': Operation not supported" Any suggestions ?
[18:28] <Kage> anyways, I use ubuntu mostly now because I ubuntu requires the least maintence
[18:28] <red2kic> Kage: Go for Arch. Give it a try. :) [end of the discussion on my part]
[18:28] <Kage> after awhile you get tried of compiling, and just wanna do work
[18:28] <CrowX-> Kage, and it also randomly freezes the screen every once in a while
[18:28] <ikonia> guys - enough please
[18:28] <ikonia> try #ubuntu-offtopic, this channels for ubuntu discussion
[18:28] <CrowX-> sorry ikonia
[18:28] <aeon-ltd> ikonia: yeah sorry for steering into !ot
[18:29] <ThinkT510> ikonia: sorry, shall keep it on-topic
[18:31] <DragonKeeper> how do i get a cloak on my host ?

[18:41] <stefg> anonymity: systemwide themes live in /usr/share/themes , personal ones in ~/.themes. Keep in mind you need the right gtk-engine for your theme
[18:41] <ruan> Athlon1600: nano, emacs
[18:41] <elf__> nano
[18:41] <theos> Athlon1600, nano
[18:41] <mbeierl> theos: ah.  if I select my webcam audio, I do not have the option to test speakers, so it might be hardware capability related.
[18:42] <CodeGnome> I'm trying to bind-mount my ecryptfs home directory automagically in a chroot, but schroot isn't happy with it. Anyone know how to get this working?
[18:42] <mbeierl> theos: urr... scratch that.  webcam does not have speakers.  ignore me
[18:42] <Athlon1600> ahh but i want graphical
[18:42] <theos> hehe
[18:42] <ruan> Athlon1600: then gedit with ssh -X
[18:42] <CodeGnome> Athlon1600: Use sshfs, then you can use anything you like because it will look like a local file.
[18:42] <anonymity> how would I find that out?
[18:43] <galeon> But as what I can remember, there's no difference in 10.04 and 10.10 in Sound Preferences, except for the Applications tab. Maybe I'm wrong.
[18:44] <Athlon1600> anything better? like some kind of notepad
[18:44] <akashm1990> how do I kill a process in sleeping state which is taking 100% CPU?
[18:44] <mbeierl> theos: what if you go to the volume applet on the panel... does it have any options settings?
[18:44] <akashm1990> sudo kill pid doesnt seem to work
[18:45] <akashm1990> taking the pid from system monitor
[18:45] <oCean> akashm1990: is it in S or D state
[18:45] <theos> mbeierl, nop. same thing opens
[18:45] <aeon-ltd> akashm1990: got htop? if so you can kill it there
[18:45] <akashm1990> got it..  right click and kill worked
[18:46] <stefg> !kill | akashm1990
[18:46] <mbeierl> theos: I fear that the sub might be powered in software and that you might need some tweaking.  what does lspci show for the audio device?
[18:46] <CodeGnome> Athlon1600: apt-cache search graphical editor
[18:46] <stefg> akashm1990: kill -9 ....
[18:47] <theos> mbeierl, i have 2 audio devices. 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
[18:47] <theos> mbeierl, and 01:00.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RV710/730
[18:48] <mbeierl> theos: interesting.  I wonder which is which.  this is a laptop... what model?
[18:49] <theos> mbeierl, i currently use intel controller. it works well , just the woofer never works on ubuntu :/
[18:49] <stefg> mbeierl, theos : the ati one is the pseudo audio device for HDMI output
[18:49] <mbeierl> stefg: thanks!
[18:49] <theos> stefg, yes. thanks. i use the intel one for internal speakers :)
[18:50] <mbeierl> theos: is there any slider anywhere for LFE output?
[18:51] <theos> mbeierl, nop. not in gui. i tried tweeking with cmd line though. but LFE channel doesnt sound
[18:51] <theos> other channels sound fine.
[18:52] <stefg> theos: checked the analog path already... trivial things like broken cable, worn-out jack or loose connections?
[18:52] <theos> stefg, it works on windows :/
[18:52] <theos> i can feel it THUMP :D
[18:52] <aeon-ltd> theos: is it ICKY?
[18:53] <theos> ??
[18:53]  * aeon-ltd looks away...
[18:53] <theos> whats icky? :D
[18:53] <stefg> theos: i see... you might need to pass special parameters to your card.
[18:53] <aeon-ltd> theos: icky thump.
[18:53] <stefg> !intelhda | theos
[18:53] <theos> stefg, thanks. i hope i didnt try that yet
[18:55] <drei> Hello channel... I ubuntu
[18:56] <drei> ubuntu's samba file system guide.  I did command 'sudo chown nobody,sambashare /srv/samba/share/'..  But fails
[18:57] <drei> cat passwd shows there is a nobody user, yet it doesn't recognize?
[18:58] <stefg> theos: installing padevchooser might help. there you can select different sound profiles, 5.1 is one of them
[18:58] <stefg> !info padevchooser
[18:58] <theos> stefg, awesome. thanks :)
[18:59] <flaritycat> Anyone who's got this working? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ps3MediaServer
[19:00] <drei> flaritycat: looks cool, I'm going to try it once I come home.
[19:01] <flaritycat> drei, could you let me know it you got it working. The program worked a while , now it wont start. But I didnt seem to find my comp on the network.

[19:05] <Aer> Hi, i was wondering if anyone could give me a hand, when i use the "update manager" i get the following error message "Not all updates can be installed" "Run a partial upgrade, to install as many updates as possible"
[19:05] <theos> thanks for helping. i will come back tomorow :) to thank when my woofer works :P
[19:05] <Aer> What would a partial upgrade be ? would that upgrade me from 10.4 LTS to the latest non LTS ?
[19:06] <brewster> how do I make it so that I don't need aptoncd for upgrades?
[19:07] <Aer> anyone lol ? :P
[19:07] <bastidrazor> brewster: in software sources uncheck the line with CDROM in it.
[19:07] <brewster> ty
[19:07] <jndlsnl> hi, I install xp then i install the ubuntu but in the grub loader it is not showing the xp.how can i resolve this problem?
[19:08] <stefg> Aer: that means that not all dependencies of updated packages can be satisfied (e.g. medibuntu is often overloaded, so w32codecs can't be installed) this is completely different from a version upgrade
[19:08] <shcherbak> Aer: What does happend if: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade ????
[19:08] <Aer> ok, thanks stefg, I will try now shcherbak
[19:09] <Aer> i get "the following packages have been kept back"
[19:09] <shcherbak> Aer: Whatch update, it shows Hits and Skips for each repo
[19:09] <Aer> "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" and "The following packages will be upgraded" "linux-libc-dev"
[19:10] <Aer> i got a lot of hits and a few "ign"
[19:10] <Aer> im guessing it ignored some
[19:10] <guntbert> Aer: ign is normal
[19:10] <shcherbak> Aer: So, here it is.
[19:10] <Aer> ok
[19:10] <Aer> so should i run partial upgrade ?
[19:11] <shcherbak> Aer: Yup.
[19:11] <guntbert> Aer: usually not recommended
[19:11] <Aer> :s
[19:11] <Aer> running a partial upgrade wont break my system will it lol ?
[19:12] <jndlsnl> hi, I install xp then i install the ubuntu but in the grub loader it is not showing the xp.how can i resolve this problem?
[19:12] <shcherbak> Aer: Maybe follow guntbert, I need to update myself.
[19:12] <Aer> cus the updates i cant do without partial upgrade are greyed out and they are below "important securioty updates" section they are the linux kernels
[19:12] <guntbert> Aer: ooops - we contradicted each other - I never tried that, was always warned off
[19:13] <guntbert> Aer: what I did in such cases was sudo aptitude safe-upgrade
[19:13] <Aer> ok i will try that now

[19:23] <thielmann_> I moved my system from Ubuntu 8.04 to Ubuntu 10.04 (on a different system). Now every website hosted on my system has a strange character at the very end of the site (shown as a black squared question mark, see http://goo.gl/Dzws for example). I  can't seem to figure out if it's the file format, mysql, apache or something else. I tried everything I can think of. It seems to serve latin1 instead of utf-8. Any ideas?
[19:23] <brewster> unityproblem: i had a similar problem and restarting seemed to fix it

[19:30] <KINGOFSWORDS> is grub and mbr same thing

[19:31] <zaksoldier> i have the ubuntu on usb

[19:31] <zaksoldier> is there a code to repair the system of ubuntu
[19:31] <KINGOFSWORDS> its grub 2...is cmd any different

[19:32] <ActionParsnip> zaksoldier: if you give some details rather than annoyingly spamming the channel we can help you, you have given ZERO details so how do you expect anyone to give you any advise!!?
[19:32] <guntbert> zaksoldier: that isn't a "code to repair", it only tell the system to check the file system on the next boot

[19:55] <Kr0nZ> hey guys i seem to be having problems upgrading maverick to 2.6.38, after install the packages from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v<IP_ADDRESS>-natty/ after reboot gnome doesnt launch, how can i fix this
[19:55] <erUSUL> chriswk: see if qemu-img can do it ....
[19:55] <justin__> I have a problem with a game & GL
[19:55] <ActionParsnip> unityproblem: if you cannot solve issues like that,I suggest you DON'T use natty
[19:55] <unityproblem> ActionParsnip: but still samba server installation is common i guess??
[19:56] <justin__> I keep getting a GL error or 1281
[19:56] <eric-maverick> Hi Konz me too
[19:56] <justin__> *of
[19:56] <ActionParsnip> unityproblem: you need to get your packages square first, ask in #ubuntu+1
[19:56] <chriswk> erUSUL: I found a guide for that that tells me to use various terminal commands that don't work
[19:56] <eric-maverick> Kr0nZ sorry
[19:56] <justin__> What packages from Mesa do I need to install?
[19:56] <KINGOFSWORDS> hi..after update-grub how do i get rid of things on my boot menu
[19:56] <unityproblem> ActionParsnip: okk sure thanks for ur time BTW !
[19:56] <justin__> I've tried swx11
[19:57] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: when you uninstall old kernels, they get removed
[19:57] <justin__> And I am on glx right now
[19:57] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: computer janitor should be able to help you with that if you dontk now how
[19:57] <ActionParsnip> unityproblem: the pastebin is still useful for asking in the other channel
[19:57] <justin__> Can anyone help me?
[19:57] <guntbert> zaksoldier: maybe its easier in #ubuntu-arabic ?
[19:57] <justin__> Hello?
[19:57] <justin__> Hello?
[19:57] <maco> justin__: for something as specific as a GL error code, you might need #xorg
[19:58] <justin__> Ok.
[19:58] <etherneteth0> justi whats the problem
[19:58] <ThinkT510> !enter | justin__
[19:58] <galeon> KINGOFSWORDS: Try editing /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[19:58] <KINGOFSWORDS> ok
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> galeon: that isn't advised, the file is generated so changes will be lost next time a kernel is installed
[19:58] <maco> galeon: that's the file generated by update-grub. itd revert after KINGOFSWORDS's next kernel update or anything else that triggers update-grub to run
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> galeon: the file itself even tells users to not manually edit it
[19:59] <zaksoldier> 10min went for no answer
[19:59] <Buzzzz> I guess getting adobe flash to work with dual screen on an amd card is impossible?
[19:59] <KINGOFSWORDS> how do i edit the .cfg?
[19:59] <KINGOFSWORDS> gedit?
[19:59] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: that's not the recommended way to do it
[19:59] <ThinkT510> galeon: the files that should be edited are in /etc/grub.d/
[19:59] <galeon> zaksoldier: When that happens to me, I only restart then all is fine.
[19:59] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: it'll just revert when you get a new kernel update
[19:59] <ActionParsnip> KINGOFSWORDS: don't edit it, its a pointless execise
[20:00] <KINGOFSWORDS> ok
[20:00] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: really, just uninstall the old kernels that you dont want on there anymore
[20:00] <zaksoldier> for me not
[20:00] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: it'll free up space on your hard drive too
[20:00] <KINGOFSWORDS> i dont know how
[20:00] <feat> Hi
[20:00] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: use Computer Janitor, like i said before
[20:00] <KINGOFSWORDS> ive formated in gparted but windows still comes up
[20:00] <KINGOFSWORDS> ok maco...is that in synaptic?
[20:00] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: Computer Janitor is installed by default
[20:00] <zaksoldier> it comes again and i have to press delete or not delete
[20:00] <chriswk> Anybody know a somewhat simple way for converting the .vhd to .vdi?
[20:01] <JeroenM> Can someone give me a channel for Ubuntu beta? Or Ubuntu bugs?
[20:01] <galeon> KINGOFSWORDS: System->Preferences
[20:01] <ikonia> JeroenM: #ubuntu+1 for natty chat
[20:01] <JeroenM> ok thank you
[20:01] <atpa8a> hello
[20:01] <ThinkT510> !bug | JeroenM
[20:01] <pluc> Hey folks. I seem to have misplaced my CTRL+C binding. It doesn't do anything anymore - but simply highlighting text will copy it. How can I restore the Copy key binding?
[20:01] <atpa8a> does anyone know what manages the mounts under /media?
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> KINGOFSWORDS: you may find it mentioned in /etc/grub.d/40_custom    if it is, comment it out then run: sudo update-grub
[20:02] <maco> pluc: is this all over the desktop or just one app?
[20:02] <Mamaaloo> hi
[20:02] <ActionParsnip> atpa8a: udisks I believe
[20:03] <pluc> maco: let me test
[20:03] <crescendo> what is this new chromium-browser-l10n?
[20:03] <otori> hallo
[20:03] <pluc> The highlighting-text-goes-in-the-clipboard is all over
[20:03] <pluc> CTRL+C seems to work in xchat though
[20:03] <atpa8a> ActionParsnip: fuse thing?
[20:03] <Aer> whats the difference between "sudo aptitude safe-upgrade" and just running a "partiall upgrade" in update manager ?
[20:03] <maco> pluc: highlight to copy and middle click to paste is a feature on *all* Linux distros
[20:03] <ActionParsnip> crescendo: its a language pack according to dpkg
[20:04] <KINGOFSWORDS> computer janitor just list unused programs?
[20:04] <maco> pluc: ok so which app isnt letting you ctrl+C?
[20:04] <pluc> maco: I don't middle click. I just select text and it goes in my clipboard, replacing whatever I had.
[20:04] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: it should list extra kernels too
[20:04] <pluc> maco: Chrome
[20:04] <maco> pluc: if you middle click, you can paste what you've highlighted ;-)
[20:04] <KINGOFSWORDS> nah
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> atpa8a: not sure, I know udisks will be involved
[20:04] <galeon> Is there a way to tell grub to remove an entry everytime update-grub is used? Like when I don't want Windows to be added to the boot menu?
[20:04] <atpa8a> oh... dbus thing
[20:04] <otori> gkdebi sais there is a dependencie problem: libwxbase2.8-0 (>= <IP_ADDRESS>) does it mean this package must be over this version or lower??
[20:04] <pluc> maco: Well actually, it could be because I was trying to paste content of my clipboard over a selection
[20:04] <KINGOFSWORDS> googleearth and 2 ia32 files what ever they are
[20:04] <cybrhuman> maco: what do you call that feature? I really like that feature
[20:05] <maco> cybrhuman: it's X's clipboard. i call it mouse-paste
[20:05] <atpa8a> ActionParsnip: just wondering if it's a good idea to make my own mounts under that
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> atpa8a: if you want, sure :)
[20:05] <galeon> Is there a way to tell grub to remove an entry everytime update-grub is used? Like when I don't want Windows to be added to the boot menu?
[20:06] <maco> pluc: mouse & keyboard buffer are supposed to be two separate ones (ie, you can copy one thing with the keyboard and another thing with the mouse and choose which to paste based on which you use for the pasting. i find this handy)
[20:06] <atpa8a> ActionParsnip: i hope it's not like autofs tho :P
[20:06] <maco> pluc: so trying to paste over highlighted text should work
[20:06] <maco> pluc: i'm not really sure how Chromium handles keyboard shortcut stuff though :-/  i know in gnome apps you can turn on a setting where you're able to reset the shortcuts, which is what i was thinking you might have done
[20:07] <pluc> maco: I understand what you're saying, but say I'm writing a blog post and I want to paste my clipboard over a selected sentence... I can't, because the selected sentence goes straight in my clipboard
[20:07] <maco> pluc: do you have a clipboard manager in use?
[20:07] <pluc> maco: Yes, Parcellite
[20:07] <maco> pluc: because there should basically be two "slots" where copied stuff are stored, and the highlighted stuff should go into a different slot than the ctrl+c stuff. it shouldnt overwrite
[20:08] <pluc> maco: let me try something.
[20:08] <maco> pluc: hmm i havent used that one. does it list the last few things you copied?
[20:08] <KINGOFSWORDS> ok guys im getting nowhere with this
[20:08] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: dpkg -l linux-image*
[20:08] <atpa8a> ActionParsnip: thanks!
[20:08] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: "sudo apt-get remove " then the ones with the lowest version numbers
[20:08] <pluc> maco: Fixed it by disabling "Use Primary (Selection)" in Parcellite. Thanks!!
[20:08] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: for old kernels stuff. i dont know about windows
[20:09] <maco> pluc: ooooh! the "combine both into one buffer" feature
[20:09] <galeon> KINGOFSWORDS: You may also use Ubuntu Tweak if you only want to remove old kernels
[20:09] <pluc> maco: exactly
[20:09] <maco> galeon: we don't tend to recommend that here.... it does things a bit dangerously
[20:09] <maco> galeon: not quite automatix but...
[20:09] <KINGOFSWORDS> i dont understand all this kernels stuff
[20:10] <KINGOFSWORDS> u just want to dual boot xp but have win7 and vista stopping me
[20:10] <galeon> sorry for that, but I do use apt-get to remove kernels
[20:10] <ikonia> galeon: you don't need to use ubuntu-tweak to remove kernels
[20:10] <maco> galeon: oh so do i. its ubuntu tweak that i was referring to
[20:11] <KINGOFSWORDS> what subuntu tweak
[20:11] <Starminn> For removing old kernels, I just use the Software Center.
[20:11] <ikonia> KINGOFSWORDS: you should not use it
[20:11] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS:  a dangerous piece of software
[20:11] <ikonia> KINGOFSWORDS: it is not needed
[20:11] <galeon> yes, I mean I use apt-get, but he's having problems in using it so I recommended a GUI. Sorry for that
[20:11] <KINGOFSWORDS> omg
[20:11] <IdleOne> !ubuntutweak
[20:11] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: so is the thing you're trying to change A) that there are lots of ubuntu's listed or B) that there are lots of windows listed?
[20:11] <tommis> how can i get S3TC right now, on mesa?
[20:11] <KINGOFSWORDS> im gonna end up in a mental hospistala this rate
[20:11] <IAMSASHAFIERCE> Hi KINGOFSWORDS
[20:11] <Starminn> galeon: So suggest Software Center. It's the GUI to apt-get (more-or-less)
[20:12] <tommis> i've heard talk about that it is in external library but i can't find it...
[20:12] <KM0201> KINGOFSWORDS: whats the problem? (or maybe i've missed it).. no need to go to a mental hospital over it
[20:12] <KINGOFSWORDS> theres wins7 listed(which isnt there) and theres windows vista somewhere which i dont want
[20:12] <galeon> Sorry, I haven't thought of that.
[20:12] <IAMSASHAFIERCE> Neither did I.
[20:12] <Mamaaloo> hi
[20:13] <KINGOFSWORDS> i want to install game..doesnt work in wine so i partitioned and installed win7(which is crap) so now i try xp but it wont boot from cd or get rid of win7
[20:13] <mekeor> Mamaaloo: hi
[20:13] <galeon> KINGOFSWORDS: So, it's not kernels for Linux that you want to remove?
[20:13] <Mamaaloo> hi mekeor
[20:13] <Mamaaloo> how are you
[20:13] <Starminn> galeon: Yeah, just search "linux-header" in the Software Center and just leave the ones you want (obviously don't remove what you're using)
[20:13] <KINGOFSWORDS> now i just want to format windows partition so theres nothing on there
[20:13] <ikonia> KINGOFSWORDS: that's nothing to do with ubuntu
[20:13] <mekeor> Mamaaloo: thx, good. you?
[20:13] <maco> ikonia: its the grub config
[20:13] <KINGOFSWORDS> no..i got no idea what kernels do
[20:13] <Mamaaloo> ok me too hehe
[20:13] <KM0201> KINGOFSWORDS: have you tried using Gparted to format the windows partition?
[20:14] <maco> ikonia: oh nevermind
[20:14] <KINGOFSWORDS> yeh gparted formats it in like 3 seconds
[20:14] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: your windows cd refusing to boot isn't a problem we can help with
[20:14] <KINGOFSWORDS> and win7 is still in boot menu
[20:14] <KINGOFSWORDS> im not asking bout win cd
[20:14] <haroon> hello
[20:14] <KM0201> KINGOFSWORDS: did you run sudo update-grub   after you formatted the windows partition?
[20:14] <KINGOFSWORDS> im asking about formating win partition thru ubuntu
[20:15] <ikonia> KINGOFSWORDS: you said you've done it
[20:15] <KINGOFSWORDS> yeh did update-grub cmd
[20:15] <ikonia> KINGOFSWORDS: what's the problem now ?
[20:15] <galeon> KINGOFSWORDS: It seems your problem is not in Ubuntu. Windows XP CD will sometimes not boot if there are partitions it cannot read (like EXT4).
[20:15] <KINGOFSWORDS> win7 is still there
[20:15] <Mamaaloo> hi ikonia
[20:15] <ikonia> KINGOFSWORDS: is that a problem at the moment ?
[20:15] <KINGOFSWORDS> or at least in options
[20:15] <haroon> today I tried to to install 10.04 at lenovo new B560  and getting problem https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/767455
[20:15] <KINGOFSWORDS> win7 is still in my boot menu
[20:15] <Starminn> galeon: He's not asking about the CD. He's seeing he wiped the partition but Win7 is still in his GRUB boot menu,.
[20:16] <Mamaaloo> +bug 767455
[20:16] <KINGOFSWORDS> i dont care about windows...hope i never have to use it again in my life
[20:16] <IdleOne> KINGOFSWORDS: stop typing for a minute.
[20:16] <galeon> But I thought its already removed?
[20:16] <IdleOne> KINGOFSWORDS: did you run: sudo update-grub ?
[20:17] <KINGOFSWORDS> yeh sudo update-grub and rebooted and still in menu
[20:18] <Jordan_U> KINGOFSWORDS: What is the output of "sudo os-prober"?
[20:18] <KINGOFSWORDS> now sudo update-grub ..cmd not found
[20:18] <galeon> KINGOFSWORDS: Are you sure that the Windows partitions no longer exists? Grub shouldn't be able to add it to the boot menu if the partition is no longer there?
[20:18] <galeon> "there." rather
[20:18] <KINGOFSWORDS> jordan /dev/sda2:Windows7 (loader):Windows:chain
[20:19] <hiexpo> maybe sudo apt-get update-grub
[20:19] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: did you format the partition or delete it?
[20:19] <Jordan_U> KINGOFSWORDS: Then you still have a Windows partition. Specifically /dev/sda2
[20:19] <maco> hiexpo: there's no such command
[20:19] <KINGOFSWORDS> invalid operation update-grub
[20:19] <hiexpo> maco, i know was goofing
[20:19] <KINGOFSWORDS> formatted it b4 and then deleted
[20:20] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: can you do "sudo fdisk -l" and put that on paste.ubuntu.com ?
[20:20] <IdleOne> hiexpo: goofing when someone is having a problem and others are trying to help is not helpful.
[20:20] <hiexpo> IdleOne, kk
[20:20] <KINGOFSWORDS> erm im on differnt pc so will take while to type out
[20:20] <IdleOne> hiexpo: thank you :)

[20:24] <Jordan_U> maco: Probably just the small Windows "System" partition
[20:24] <phonex01> i mean something to make fun with pictures
[20:24] <galeon> KINGOFSWORDS: Does /dev/sda2 have any files?
[20:24] <hayat> i need help
[20:24] <minion35> since the newest batch of updates has anyone noticed anything weird about java and CPU usage ... laptop went through a massive slow down, ran top and java was apparently at 200%
[20:24] <flaritycatsecond> phonex01, you can try picasa.
[20:25] <KINGOFSWORDS> dunno
[20:25] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: then your partition has not been deleted
[20:25] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: if its still showing up in fdisk, the partition still exists.
[20:25] <KINGOFSWORDS> i think it had 500meg of win7 left on it for some reason
[20:25] <phonex01> apt-get install picasa ?
[20:25] <flaritycatsecond> www.google.com > picasa
[20:25] <tjiggi_fo> hayat, ask, and if we can help we will
[20:26] <hayat> why unable to mount USB
[20:26] <KINGOFSWORDS> so i need to delete it in gparted.....btw im using alternate version of ubuntu
[20:26] <razanof> Do not use google, use Ixquick instead
[20:26] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: sudo fdisk /dev/sda
[20:26] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: then hit d
[20:26] <KINGOFSWORDS> ok
[20:26] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: then tell it 2
[20:26] <IsmAvatar> Hey guys. My U10.10 has 2 user accounts (my wife and I), and we switch back and forth. When she puts her USB in, it mounts, but when I switch to my account, it says "Unable to mount <usb name>" in a popup - and vice versa.
[20:27] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: then w    to commit the changes
[20:27] <KINGOFSWORDS> ok so which partition number?
[20:27] <IsmAvatar> and by "it says", I mean I'm literally immediately greeted by a popup after logging in.
[20:27] <KINGOFSWORDS> ok
[20:27] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: you can do "p" before "w" to have it print out what its gonna do
[20:27] <KINGOFSWORDS> command (*m for help):
[20:27] <hayat> why unable to mount USB
[20:27] <KINGOFSWORDS> what p and w?
[20:28] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: p is print, w is write (ie save)
[20:28] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: if you hit "m" like it says, it'll list these
[20:28] <KINGOFSWORDS> ok should i p then?
[20:28] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: if youd like to check what it did, sure
[20:28] <KINGOFSWORDS> did both
[20:29] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: and p shows sda2 being gone?
[20:29] <KINGOFSWORDS> ahhh yeh
[20:29] <KINGOFSWORDS> but surely it take like 20 mins to delete a partition?
[20:29] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: ok so now the partition should actually be deleted. so do the 'sudo update-grub' again
[20:30] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: nahh a low-level format takes a while, but deleting a partition is just removing a pointer to its starting/ending blocks
[20:30] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: its like crossing out a line in the index of a book
[20:30] <hayat> why my ubuntu 10.04 is unable to mount USB
[20:30] <KINGOFSWORDS> ok.....building a new sun disklabel.......
[20:30] <BlouBlou> hayat: try 'lsusb' and check if it detects it or not
[20:30] <pajero> which command can i use for hping install

[20:32] <Nastya> I need your advice
[20:32] <milk> hoddyho, wondering if anyone might be able to advise on an sshfs problem? ssh works, but sshfs gives a connection reset by peer :/
[20:32] <Jordan_U> maco: Any idea how anything having to do with a sun disklabel came about?
[20:32] <KINGOFSWORDS> maco it says its waiting for a cmd?
[20:32] <maco> Jordan_U: no
[20:32] <tjiggi_fo> hayat, goto System >> Administration >> Users and Groups >> Advanced Settings >> User priveleges and make sure "Access external Storage devices automatically" is ticked.
[20:32] <cybrhuman> Nastya: just ask, you need no permission :)
[20:33] <Nastya> I'm using evince for work with pdf files. But Very often I need to add a bookmark to these files or highlight sentences there. And i can't do it with evince. Please help me to find a suitable viewer for my needs
[20:33] <hayat> @tjiggi_fo: ok
[20:34] <maco> Jordan_U: well, other thanb creating a new partition that was a sun format (hmm or swap. i think swap looks like solaris)
[20:34] <commodore> So many people leaving D:
[20:34] <KINGOFSWORDS> shall i type out entireoutput
[20:34] <cybrhuman> Nastya: okular has some of those features
[20:34] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: is that computer not online?
[20:34] <KINGOFSWORDS> no
[20:34] <erUSUL> Nastya: acrobat read is aviable in medibuntu ...
[20:34] <iamaham> Greetings
[20:34] <Jordan_U> maco: But a sun disklabel is a type of partition table, not a type of partition.
[20:34] <erUSUL> !medibuntu > Nastya
[20:34] <commodore> I really need to use XChat. Does anyone use irssi?
[20:35] <iamaham> is there any benefit to using the IA-64 stall on a Xeon system over the plain 32bit version?
[20:35] <KINGOFSWORDS> shall i try to get online on this pc
[20:35] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: itd be easier to debug if you did...
[20:35] <erUSUL> iamaham: ia 64 wont work in a xeon cpu
[20:35] <iamaham> ? it's 64bit
[20:35] <iamaham> or what should I use on a Xeon quad core system
[20:35] <erUSUL> !amd64 | this will though  iamaham
[20:35] <KINGOFSWORDS> ok brb...its 3g modem so sometimes have problems getting on
[20:35] <maco> Jordan_U: "s" in fdisk would make a new empty sun disklabel
[20:36] <iamaham> but it's an Intel chip not amd64
[20:36] <erUSUL> iamaham: ia64 is not the same as amd64 ( the arch xeaons use )
[20:36] <maco> Jordan_U:  but not d or p or w...
[20:36] <iamaham> aye
[20:36] <iamaham> so I can't use the aMD64 distro right?
[20:36] <erUSUL> iamaham: AMd invented/designed the 64 bit extensions to x86 so they've got to name it
[20:37] <iamaham> confused
[20:37] <erUSUL> AMD*
[20:37] <iamaham> so which one should I use? know it's a 64bit cpu
[20:37] <Jordan_U> iamaham: IA-64 is an entirely different architecture from AMD64. Intel's current 64 bit chips use the AMD64 architecture, also sometimes called X86-64.
[20:37] <iamaham> amd64 or the 32bit regular version
[20:37] <erUSUL> iamaham: both AMD and Intel implement the amd64 arch in their chips
[20:37] <cybrhuman> iamaham: how much RAM have you got?
[20:37] <erUSUL> iamaham: if you want to use 64 bits use the mad64 iso's
[20:37] <iamaham> so it the Xeon and AMD64 or IA-64 based chipset?
[20:37] <hayat> p
[20:37] <iamaham> 16gigs
[20:38] <erUSUL> iamaham: Xeon is amd 64
[20:38] <Nastya> thankyou folks! I got it. I'll try one of these readers
[20:38] <iamaham> DDR2
[20:38] <iamaham> 4x4gig
[20:38] <erUSUL> iamaham: iA64 is use by *itanium* cpu's
[20:38] <Jordan_U> KINGOFSWORDS: Don't close your terminal Window. Please copy as much of the scrollback as possible to a text file to document what has happened.
[20:38] <iamaham> kk tyvm
[20:39] <iamaham> didnt realise there was a dif in ia-64 and amd64. thought amd64 was just amd and ia-64 was xeon, itanium, and maybe i5,i7
[20:39] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: did you press "s" at all while inside fdisk?
[20:39] <maco> iamaham: amd64 is backwards compatible with ia32. ia64 is not so kinda flopped on the desktop market
[20:39] <erUSUL> iamaham: read twe links the bot gave you
[20:39] <maco> iamaham: intel licenses amd64 from amd for their desktop 64bit cpus
[20:40] <iamaham> tyvm
[20:43] <DrMrHorse> .
[20:43] <roeland> is there any way to test if sendmail is working from the console?
[20:43] <roeland> i just ran apt-get install sendmail
[20:44] <bluefox84> much better >.>
[20:44] <oCean> roeland: telnet localhost 25
[20:44] <bluefox84> wtf, my nick D:
[20:45] <genii-around> roeland: If you also install mailutils   you can do: mail -s "subject here"<EMAIL_ADDRESS>      then type the msg and do ctrl-c when finished
[20:46] <roeland> oCean: what will that do?
[20:46] <oCean> roeland: connect with the telnet service on port 25 of your local computer.
[20:47] <raven_> UNISON - different versions.... "expected "Unison 2.32\n" but received "Unison 2.27\n\000\000\000\000", which differs at "Unison 2.2"."
[20:48] <Travis-42> How do I get TRIM to work on my SSD? I assumed Ubuntu would automatically use it, but it seems like it's not actually working
[20:48] <IsmAvatar> Hey guys. My U10.10 has 2 user accounts (my wife and I), and we switch back and forth. When she puts her USB in, it mounts, but when I switch to my account, it says "Unable to mount <usb name>" in a popup as soon as I login - and vice versa.
[20:49] <mod> apt-get seems to always have problems connecting to or resolving the hostnames of repositories
[20:49] <vlt_> Hello. Does anyone know how to stretch (or change perspektive of) a layer in Gimp?
[20:50] <IsmAvatar> vlt_: this is #ubuntu, not #gimp
[20:50] <mod> this has been true of multiple ubuntu version installs
[20:50] <bluefox83> >.>
[20:50] <mod> (of mine :)
[20:50] <cybrhuman> IsmAvatar: the usb stick is mounted for the current user of X so it is probably something there not going as smooth as it should when you switch.
[20:51] <maco> mod: sure its not your network connection?
[20:51] <bluefox83> how do i manually do a dist-upgrade in terminal? i know there's a config file or something i need to edit...but i don't recall D:
[20:51] <itilious> how can i use keys with vnc instead of password?
[20:51] <cybrhuman> bluefox83: /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[20:51] <itilious> i'm using keys between ssh connection and i think that the authorization in VNC is preventing me from using it over the ssh tunnel
[20:51] <mod> maco, positive, I can browse in FF all around the world, no prob
[20:51] <maco> mod: but if you do "host archive.ubuntu.com"  does that resolve?
[20:52] <erUSUL> bluefox83: you don't. use the apropiate tools---> do-release-upgrade
[20:52] <erUSUL> !upgrade > bluefox83
[20:52] <mod> maco, it takes a bit, but yes...but then I'd suspect that 'host' is directly using the resolver libs
[20:53] <mod> ok so not apt-get has finally done an update, after 10 tries of stalls
[20:53] <mod> and upgrade just does so patheitcally slow
[20:53] <mod> stalls a lot
[20:55] <cybrhuman> boring new tools, ... no more need for manually changing repositories?! boring!
[20:56] <maco> mod: apt-get is just using wget or curl
[20:57] <maco> mod: but if it takes a long while, id wonder whether there is packet loss or something else interrupting your connection to the dns server

[21:03] <alishah> hi, how do i start mysql-client. I installed mysql_server and mysql_client but i don't know how do i start mysql_client.?
[21:04] <nononickname> is there a specific channel for ubuntu brainstorm, or are there any brainstorm moderators in here that can assist me? Or does anyone know someone that is an ubuntu brainstorm moderator ?
[21:08] <mackenzie> My sound is not working; and its not on mute...
[21:09] <IdleOne> nononickname: #ubuntu-brainstorm
[21:09] <nononickname> IdleOne, thank you
[21:09] <Docfxit> My menu bar at the top of the screen disappeared. Gnome . How can I get it back?
[21:09] <cybrhuman> mackenzie: is this an issue that suddenly appeared on an existing install or a fresh isntall
[21:10] <xskydevilx> Is there a way to backup all of the installed updates for Ubuntu and then restore them back when the OS has been installed again?
[21:10] <cybrhuman> Docfxit: may I assume you are a gnome user?
[21:10] <Docfxit> yes
[21:11] <cybrhuman> Docfxit: if so you can recreate it by right-clicking on the lower one and click new panel I think
[21:12] <P4C0> hello, can somebody point me to the network configuration how to on ubuntu server 10.04? https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/network-configuration.html only covers ethernet
[21:12] <cybrhuman> Docfxit: it requires some work to repopulate it and restoring it to normal, but it should all be in a rightclick menu
[21:12] <Docfxit> cybrhuman I don't see new panel when I right click any place on the blank screen
[21:13] <cybrhuman> Docfxit: did you have two panels before you accindentally deleted the top one?
[21:13] <brightspark> Docfxit, pkill gnome-panel
[21:14] <cybrhuman> brightspark: do that work if you delete your panels?
[21:14] <Nzaw4> hi guys, i have a queswtion, im having issues running steam under wine
[21:14] <Docfxit> cybrhuman I only had one.
[21:14] <Nzaw4> i have the log of errors when i tried to start it in terminal
[21:15] <Scowboy> everytime i try gtk-window-decorator --replace my terminal just stops working
[21:15] <Nzaw4> was wondering if someone could hepl me
[21:15] <Scowboy> anyone know what is the problem
[21:15] <mackenzie>  When I right click for settings, I'll try to click something and, it won't let me click it. :/
[21:15] <Docfxit> brightspark How can I get a terminal window up to put pkill in?
[21:15] <galeon> Docfxit: To restore panels to default: gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel
[21:15] <brightspark> Docfxit, ctrl-alt-t
[21:16] <Docfxit> brightspark ctrl-alt-t doesn't do anything.
[21:17] <kawohi> How do I stop Ubuntu from asking for a keyring password on startup?
[21:17] <cybrhuman> Docfxit: alt-F2?
[21:17] <brightspark> cybrhuman, if they just disappeared its a credible 1st try
[21:17] <cybrhuman> brightspark: good point
[21:17] <Nzaw4> so no one here is running Steam in wine?
[21:17] <Docfxit> cybrhuman alt-F2 doesn't do anything either.
[21:18] <cybrhuman> Docfxit: ctrl-alt-F1
[21:18] <cybrhuman> Docfxit: ctrl-alt-F7 or F8 to return to graphics
[21:18] <brightspark> Docfxit, ctrl-alt-f7 to switch back
[21:18] <Docfxit> cybrhuman ctrl-alt-F1 doesn't do anything.
[21:19] <P4C0> wifi on ubuntu server 10.04... anyone?
[21:19] <Nzaw4> im a girl, and i suck at ubuntu.. can anyone help me ?
[21:19] <cybrhuman> Docfxit: that is weird, you are holding them down at the same time?
[21:20] <sje46> Nzaw4: a girl?  Well, if it's for a GIRL, of course
[21:20] <sje46> No way would I help out a boy
[21:20] <Docfxit> cybrhuman yes
[21:20]  * ariel_ wonders
[21:20] <Nzaw4> :)
[21:20] <cybrhuman> P4C0: have you tried wicd?
[21:20] <cybrhuman> Docfxit: that is strange
[21:20] <brightspark> Docfxit, something is really strange then.  try rebooting I guess
[21:20] <P4C0> cybrhuman: no, I was hopping to get a howto similar to he one for ethernet...
[21:20] <kawohi> How do I stop Ubuntu from asking for a keyring password on startup?
[21:21] <P4C0> cybrhuman: does wicd requires x?
[21:21] <Docfxit> brightspark I'll try that.
[21:21] <flaritycat> Nzaw4, try installing playonlinux , and run steam from there.
[21:21] <cybrhuman> P4C0: wicd-curses has a nice curses tool. nope, works fine in terminal
[21:21] <Nzaw4> isnt playonlinux a front end for wine?
[21:21] <Nzaw4> i have a log of what happens when i try to open steam
[21:21] <P4C0> cybrhuman: thanks, i guess I'll try that...
[21:21] <cybrhuman> Docfxit: restart X first? alt-sysrq-k?
[21:21] <Rziz> it actually is, nzaw
[21:21] <Nzaw4> it starts to log in then it crashes
[21:22] <Gurke_> hi
[21:22] <KINGOFSWORDS> hi
[21:22] <Gurke_> i need help
[21:22] <ayecee> !ask | Gurke_
[21:22] <KINGOFSWORDS> maco and jordan are yhou still here...only just back online
[21:23] <Gurke_> my question is can help me
[21:23] <Nzaw4> 10.10 is maverick right?
[21:23] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: yes i am
[21:23]  * Nzaw4 blushes
[21:23] <Nzaw4> lol
[21:23] <ariel_> PlayOnLinux is based on Wine, and so profits from all its features yet it keeps the user from having to deal with its complexity
[21:23] <ayecee> Gurke_: the answer is that no one can until you describe your problem.
[21:23] <KINGOFSWORDS> sorry couldnt get online with that pc and had problems on this 1
[21:23] <chiluk> nzaw4 yes
[21:23] <Gurke_> ok my problem is about with ubuntu
[21:23] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: ok well did you save the contents of that computer's terminal to a file?
[21:23] <KINGOFSWORDS> win7 is still in the boot menu
[21:24] <KINGOFSWORDS> no dont know how
[21:24] <galeon> kawohi: Did you changed your password?
[21:24] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: copy and paste?
[21:24] <KINGOFSWORDS> oh yej
[21:24] <kawohi> NO, its been the same.
[21:24] <KINGOFSWORDS> but i can use up arrow to do cmds again
[21:24] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: did you already reboot that computer?
[21:25] <KINGOFSWORDS> yeh
[21:25] <maco> and its working ok, just the same problem with the menu?
[21:25] <KINGOFSWORDS> anyway that partition is back aswell.....sda2 hpfs/ntfs
[21:25] <ayecee> Gurke_: you will still need to describe the problem.
[21:25] <KINGOFSWORDS> yep same problem
[21:26] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: and you *did* do the "w" when in fdisk?
[21:27] <KINGOFSWORDS> w was write?
[21:27] <KINGOFSWORDS> yeh did that
[21:27] <KINGOFSWORDS> after p
[21:27] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: hmm thats....weird
[21:27] <KINGOFSWORDS> did you work out what sun disk label was for?
[21:28] <papna> I have a Samba share mapped and my password changed. When I try to connect to it now I get the message "Could not open location..." and no opportunity to put in my new password.
[21:28] <papna> How do I fix this?
[21:28] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: sun disklabel wouldve been creating an entirely new partition table and would have happened if you used teh "s" command in fdisk.  if the sun disklabel thing had actually gone through you wouldnt have been able to boot though. but your fdisk changes seem not to have taken effect at all.
[21:28] <KINGOFSWORDS> nah
[21:29] <Nzaw4> hrmm, when i run Playonlinux, it says my 3d acceltor is not enabled, where do i enable it?
[21:29] <KINGOFSWORDS> maybe i have a corrupt install of ubuntu
[21:29] <galeon> kawohi: I also have the same problem before, but it is because I changed my password. Gnome should be able to unlock the keyring, but it will ask for one if its password is not the same as the user's password.
[21:29] <cybrhuman> Nzaw4: have you installed drivers for your gfx card?
[21:29] <Nzaw4> cybrhuman: yes i do nvidia
[21:30] <KINGOFSWORDS> shall i just reinstall ubuntu fro the beginning?
[21:30] <itilious> after setting up ubuntu ssh server/client with key access should i move the key id_sda to a different place?
[21:30] <cybrhuman> Nzaw4: silly question coming up: the proprietary one?
[21:30] <itilious> or does that not really make a difference in security?
[21:30] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: if you were going to blow away the whole disk and start over for a xp/ubuntu dual boot, youd want to do xp before ubuntu
[21:30] <Nzaw4> this is my kernel sudo apt-get install playonlinux
[21:31] <Gurke_> hello
[21:31] <P4C0> ok, this is crazy, I need documentation, where can I get documentation?? I need to set up an ethernet card and a wifi card... both up at the same time... wicd shuts me down the ethernet when i connect to the wireless and it doesn't start at boot (even if I check the start automatically checkbox)... is there any documentation about this?? ubuntu server 10.04
[21:31] <maco> itilious: that shouldnt make a difference. the ~/.ssh is only readable by the owner and ssh will refuse connections if this is not the case
[21:31] <Nzaw4> err i have the 260.19.06 nvidia kernel installed
[21:31] <KINGOFSWORDS> but i cant install xp so wouldnt work
[21:31] <maco> P4C0: use /etc/network/interfaces instead of wicd
[21:31] <maco> P4C0: man 5 interfaces
[21:31] <itilious> ty maco
[21:31] <Gurke_> is ubuntu 11.04 stablee ??
[21:31] <galeon> kawohi: If that's what you did, go to System -> Preferences -> Passwords and Encryption Keys. Right-click on "Passwords: Login" then "Change Password", then put your old and new password, then re-login.
[21:32] <P4C0> thanks maco
[21:32] <maco> Gurke_: no
[21:32] <maco> Gurke_: not til next week
[21:32] <Gurke_> i know its not stable but is it usuable
[21:32] <Gurke_> or too buggy
[21:32] <maco> Gurke_: oh yes, i find it quite usable, but discussion of it belongs in #ubuntu+1
[21:32] <maco> Gurke_: also, i'm a kde user, so i have no idea about unity's usability at this point ;-)
[21:32] <cybrhuman> P4C0: I would let wicd handle wifi, because I am not hardcore enough to do it manually, but I tend to let the default handle the ethernet
[21:32] <Gurke_> me too kde
[21:33] <cybrhuman> P4C0: but maco seems better than me at this :P
[21:33] <maco> cybrhuman: its actually not difficult to make the interfaces file handle even wpa
[21:33] <kawohi> Oh yeah, the wireless network doesn't have the same password.
[21:33] <P4C0> cybrhuman: it's ok, I think debian's documentation will do...
[21:33] <maco> cybrhuman: just add in    wpa-ssid linksys   \n   wpa-psk  yourpasswordhere
[21:34] <maco> cybrhuman: then it automatically handles all the talking-to-wpasupplicant junk for you :)
[21:34] <cybrhuman> maco: oh, joy, then I can get rid of these flimsy tools!
[21:34] <P4C0> maco: hmmm I prefer to handle the password in wpa_supplicant... encrypted
[21:35] <maco> P4C0: i didnt think wpa_supplicant's config file had encryption... but you can set the interfaces file to be 600 permissions. it doesnt need to be world-readable (just is by default)
[21:35] <P4C0> maco: wpa_passphrase essid password
[21:36] <alishah> hi, how can i have root permissions all the time?
[21:36] <KINGOFSWORDS> so thats it...nothing i can do?
[21:36] <ayecee> alishah: log in as root
[21:36] <ayecee> alishah: that would be a bad idea, though.
[21:37] <maco> KINGOFSWORDS: you could reinstall if you like and tell ubuntu to take the whole the drive. thatd clear out all partitions
[21:37] <KINGOFSWORDS> but ill lose all my files
[21:37] <galeon> KINGOFSWORDS: When fdisk asked for a partition number, did you put 2?
[21:38] <miniminiyo> hi
[21:38] <KINGOFSWORDS> yep
[21:38] <KM0201> http://www.tomshardware.com/news/the-oatmeal-how-to-fix-computer,12618.html
[21:39] <KM0201> woops, wrong channel.
[21:39] <Gurke_> my question is can help me
[21:39] <KINGOFSWORDS> im gonna throw pc out of windows
[21:39] <nit-wit> KM0201, lol
[21:40] <KM0201> nit-wit: didn't mean to put it here, but it does have a certain nerd humor that will appeal to a lot of folks here.. :)
[21:40] <cybrhuman> KM0201: appreciated :D
[21:40] <galeon> KINGOFSWORDS: Try using Disk Utility on that computer to delete the partition.
[21:41] <Guest20105> hello
[21:41] <cybrhuman> Gurke_: what is the problem?
[21:42] <Guest20105> just bought new hardware and i'm unable to boot. am i right for some help here?
[21:42] <cybrhuman> Guest20105: we can give it a try :)
[21:42] <Nzaw4> argh stupid playonlinux
[21:42] <Guest20105> hehe allright.
[21:42] <KINGOFSWORDS> typed disk utility into terminal and choose number 2
[21:42] <Nzaw4> wine crashes, nothing loads
[21:42] <KINGOFSWORDS> what do now?
[21:42] <cybrhuman> Guest20105: the machine booted before the hw-upgrade?
[21:43] <KINGOFSWORDS> command?
[21:43] <Guest20105> it's a completely new machine. i purchased a HP 8200 elite
[21:43] <Guest20105> therefore, to answer your question: no :P
[21:43] <galeon> KINGOFSWORDS: System -> Administration -> Disk Utility
[21:43] <cybrhuman> Nzaw4: to tell teh truth I am secretly a windows user when it comes to games
[21:43] <Nzaw4> cybrhuman: me too, i just want to ditch windows, and run my steam and also photoschop
[21:43] <KINGOFSWORDS> ok
[21:43] <Nzaw4> then i can walk away from windows entirely
[21:43] <fabiobik> hi i have isses to connect  to internet with my alfa awso36h
[21:44] <fabiobik> i can connect but after 3, 4 seconds the coonection is down
[21:44] <cybrhuman> Guest20105: ok, and you want to boot a install disk/usb stick?
[21:44] <fabiobik> im using bt4
[21:44] <Guest20105> well. i used the new cd-image 10.10, even the beta 11.04, 32 and 64 bit but it boots into a grub shell
[21:44] <guntbert> !backtrack | fabiobik
[21:44] <cybrhuman> Nzaw4: you speak of utopia
[21:44] <KINGOFSWORDS> galeon do i create partition on that space?
[21:44] <cybrhuman> Nzaw4: I hope to live there one day :P
[21:44] <Guest20105> into a real dumb grub shell where i'm not able to do anything^
[21:44] <Nzaw4> lol
[21:44] <guntbert> !ot | Nzaw4, cybrhuman
[21:45] <Nzaw4> ? what happened there
