[19:34] <aoupi> mthorn: what does ls /dev/sdc* give you?
[19:34] <dvyjones> Is tehre a way to run OSX in VirtualBox, or run OSX apps with something like WINE?
[19:34] <Neconide> BlehTM: I don't think your windows was transferred to a 1GB partition or else it probably wouldn't be working right now. Are you using XP or Vista? 32 bit or 64 bit?
[19:34] <mthorn> just this: 0 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 32 2008-11-20 13:44 sdc
[19:34] <kenshin_> yep, still as I said an hd tv is yet an other monitor ...
[19:34] <mthorn> it works fine on 8.04.
[19:34] <c_malc> quick pre-install question re Samba for a couple of Vista users:  should I install 64 bit ?
[19:35] <ikonia> c_malc: that doesn't matter
[19:35] <triggerhapp> A script keeps closing itself unexpectedly, while I look for a fix, can someone give me a shell command to re-run the same script when it ends?
[19:35] <ikonia> c_malc: samba works the same for both
[19:35] <kenshin_> xinerama is a start
[19:35] <BlehTM> It's weird, I think my boot sector is on the 1GB but the actual installation is on the other partition.  Is that possible?
[19:35] <c_malc> ikonia:  thanks, just making sure there was no problem with 64 bit before going ahead
[19:36] <rioch> kenshin_: what do I need to do?
[19:36] <Neconide> BlehTM: unfortunetly yes that is possible.
[19:36] <kenshin_> triggerhapp,  would ellaborate on that plz
[19:36] <aoupi> triggerhapp: while true; do ./script; done
[19:36] <kenshin_> google xinerama
[19:36] <c_malc> ikonia: ...just a file server
[19:36] <triggerhapp> thanks aoupi, looks perfect
[19:36] <aboSamoor> my players are not working, they are not playing any file !!! any idea ?
[19:36] <ikonia> c_malc: there is no problem
[19:36] <BlehTM> Neconide:  Any way to move the boot sector?  Or should I just start over and reinstall Windows?
[19:36] <aoupi> triggerhapp: you're welcome
[19:37] <jcmages> Could someone tell me : if I do understand : fglrx stand for ati's cards, but what stands for nvidia's ones ?
[19:37] <c_malc> ikonia: thanks

[19:38] <TJ-42> I want to run firefox 2.  I installed firefox 2 with apt-get, but when I type firefox-2, firefox-3 starts.  How do I get version 2 to start?
[19:38] <aoupi> TJ-42: is firefox3 running when you start firefox2?
[19:38] <TJ-42> yes
[19:38] <rioch> kenshin_: thanks, ill have a read. I've just got the nvidia tool to find my tv, but it doesn't seem to want to use it.
[19:38] <Neconide> BlehTM: If you're seriously considdering formatting I recommend downloading all the installers you'll need now and putting them on a USB/CD just to make it that much less of a hassel.
[19:39] <aoupi> TJ-42: run firefox-2 with -no-remote, that might help
[19:39] <kenshin_> np rioch, glad to help
[19:39] <BlehTM> Neconide:  Yeah, I think I could do that.  I think I can back up to a second 250GB drive in a different computer.
[19:39] <TJ-42> aoupi: almost helped.  This time it said firefox is already running, please close.  But I want to run them both at the same time
[19:39] <aoupi> TJ-42: it'll probably complain about how firefox is already running, so run with -ProfileManager too to create a new profile
[19:39] <TJ-42> aoupi: heh ok
[19:39] <aoupi> TJ-42: you can't use the same profile with 2 instances at the same time unfortunatly
[19:39] <Gnea> is firefox 2 even packaged in ubuntu anymore?
[19:40] <TJ-42> Gnea: Im still on 8.04
[19:40] <Gnea> TJ-42: ah ok
[19:40] <Aspecti> I set my resolution too high and got 'Out Of Range', otherwise black screen. Would running rm ~/.config/monitors.xml fix it?
[19:40] <TJ-42> aoupi: That worked.  Thank you very much :-)
[19:40] <aoupi> TJ-42: no problem :)
[19:40] <Neconide> BlehTM: I've never had to fix a partition so I'm not quite sure.   I have a single 250GB drive I will be using for both Windows and Ubuntu.
[19:40] <aoupi> Aspecti: back up the file first and try, if it fails misserably you can just copy it back :)
[19:41] <Neconide> BlehTM: what OS are you running? XP32 XP64 Vista32 or Vista64?
[19:41] <BlehTM> Neconide:  Yeah, I don't care much, I just installed Windows a few weeks ago anyway.  XP32.
[19:42] <loller> i wanna ask for example i download and install theme how can i run , should i use theme manager or what , help ?
[19:42] <Aspecti> aoupi, oh well, gonna try it :P if I come back here, it didn't work :)
[19:42] <aoupi> Aspecti: :)

[19:42] <yalu> hi. I read about ntfs3G support and how to enable it for your disks at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G . I was wondering: isn't there a better way to do it? I would like to be able to just have the ntfs disks recognized as ntfs and be mountable by a user, like I can with vfat-formatted disks
[19:43] <robert_> quit
[19:43] <robert_> :D
[19:43] <aoupi> robert_: here have a /
[19:43] <Neconide> BlehTM: Alright but you should note Windows is a piece of shit, so I'm not sure whether or not it would work as advertised (to fix the partition problem)
[19:44] <Neconide> Can anyone help BLehTM with some partition problems he's having? It appears that he's put his windows booter on a 1gb storage and his actual windows on 249GB storage.
[19:45] <joaopinto> Neconide, the proper channel for windows help is ##windows, not here
[19:45] <Neconide> Oh and BlehTM: While I'm not sure if that could cause any complications, it's only 1GB, if it doesn't mean that much to you I'd suggest you just make another partition.
[19:45] <Gnea> BlehTM: ##windows should be able to help you
[19:45] <BlehTM> I was just there, no answers sadly.  I'll try again.
[19:45] <kura> hi i have a question
[19:45] <kenshin_> BlehTM,  what's the probleme exactly ???
[19:45] <Gnea> kura: please, ask
[19:46] <Neconide> kenshin_: He's put his windows booter on a 1GB partition and the rest on a 249GB partition, when he was trying to make 1GB storage for ubuntu.
[19:46] <NicEXE> I want to format my hdd from ntfs to fat32 but I don't want to loose any of my files. How should I backup (dd command is good but it takes too long)
[19:46] <BlehTM> Yeah- that
[19:46] <kura> I download Ubuntu 8.10 from official site but there is no .iso in folder
[19:46] <Gnea> Neconide: better if you let him explain it
[19:46] <kenshin_> okk ...
[19:46] <aoupi> kura: what did you download?
[19:46] <Neconide> Gnea: he said "Yeah- that"
[19:46] <kura> Ubuntu 8.10 from official site
[19:46] <Gnea> Neconide: that makes no sense and it's still offtopic!
[19:47] <kenshin_> the part that i don;t really understand is  windows booter  on a 1G prtition !?
[19:47] <aoupi> kura: and you did not get the iso?
[19:47] <kura> I have a folder
[19:47] <kenshin_> what is windows booter ?? you mean bootloader ????
[19:47] <aoupi> kura: are you using OSX?
[19:47] <Neconide> Gnea: that makes no sense, what are you talking about?>
[19:47] <stu343> greetings, i need help
[19:47] <kura> No i use Windows
[19:47] <stu343> synaptics auto updates crashed my firefox
[19:47] <kura> but i can't match on downland site that i use windows
[19:47] <stu343> anyone know of the error?
[19:47] <aoupi> kura: when you clicked begin download it should have started downloading an .iso
[19:47] <Gnea> kura: there are only .iso files there, are you sure you're looking at the right file?
[19:48] <blackpearl> Hello RooM :)
[19:48] <kura> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[19:48] <aoupi> stu343: just restart firefox
[19:48] <BlehTM> Neconide - Kenshin:  Kenshin, yeah, the boot sector.  I was about to install Ubuntu on the 1GB, but found some files there like boot_sector.ini for windows or something like that.
[19:48] <kura> From this site
[19:48] <riaal> can I set a local umask in .bashrc?
[19:48] <kura> and i chose location near me
[19:48] <stu343> aoupi: i only get a window without anything in it now
[19:48] <kura> And the downloand starts but file is in rar
[19:48] <aoupi> stu343: even after restarting it?
[19:48] <kenshin_> how the hell did these files end up there ....
[19:48] <aoupi> kura: that's very weird
[19:48] <stu343> reinstall also didnt help
[19:48] <kura> I unpacked and i have a folder
[19:49] <blackpearl> Instlled UBUNTU 8.10 in VirtualBox ..........Yiiipieeee
[19:49] <Gnea> !windows
[19:49] <aoupi> kura: you shouldn't get a rar... are you sure it's a rar and you didn't just mount the iso?
[19:49] <stu343> i only could try to restart computer....
[19:49] <stu343> but why should it help...
[19:49] <kenshin_> any linux partition should be inaccessible to windows ...
[19:49] <aoupi> kura: when you begun the download did you select "Save As:" or did you select "Open With"?
[19:49] <blackpearl> who is the moderaor here ?????????
[19:49] <kenshin_> the only operation you can do is erase to recreate ...
[19:50] <kura> I selext Save as
[19:50] <Neconide> blackpearl: I'm not a moderator but what do you need?
[19:50] <kura> select*
[19:50] <Gnea> blackpearl: what's the problem?
[19:50] <aoupi> kura: hmm... and the file ends with .rar?
[19:50] <kenshin_> and by the way 1G is so not enough ...
[19:50] <stu343> kenshin_: any linux partition should be inaccessible to windows ... << using wupi installer you cant access the one partition you installed ubuntu on
[19:50] <kura> The file name is: ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386.rar
[19:50] <kenshin_> wupi ?
[19:50] <aoupi> kura: that's very suspect :D
[19:50] <riaal> can I set a local umask in ~/.basrc?
[19:50] <blackpearl> My Ubuntu in VirtualBox is running Fine..BUT i am not able to access my Internnet
[19:51] <stu343> lol
[19:51] <stu343> i dont know how its called
[19:51] <BlehTM> Kenshin - Neconide:  Ok, I'm just going to start over and delete everything.  I have to go now, I made a mess XD
[19:51] <Gnea> stu343: try installing wubi sometime, you'll find that that there are no linux partitions created :)
[19:51] <Neconide> BlehTM: alright, good luck. I hope to hear back from you.
[19:51] <stu343> or wubi, however
[19:51] <kura> Now I download from this same site but from another location
[19:51] <kenshin_> BlehTM,  good idea
[19:51] <aoupi> kura: yea, make sure you get a .iso file
[19:51] <Gnea> blackpearl: nice choice
[19:51] <kenshin_> because trying to salvage this could be  pain in the a** (but doable)
[19:51] <Gnea> er
[19:51] <Gnea> BlehTM: nice choice
[19:51] <kura> And if I still have a problem I make a print screen ok?
[19:52] <aoupi> kura: yea do that
[19:52] <stu343> but what about my firefox problem?
[19:52] <jonek> hi, I have a problem with amarok on intrepid. it does not use font settings (antialiasing) made via systemsettings. why?
[19:52] <FuLio> Hi, when i turned on my laptop, it said it some graphic card problems, so when i got it i changed it back and now i cant change my screen resolution its on 640 x 480 and the rest are lower. how can i make it to 1250 x 1480 or higher
[19:52] <stu343> is there a hotfix or something somewhere?
[19:52] <Gnea> stu343: what firefox problem?
[19:52] <stu343> after the latest auto-updates it didnt work anymore
[19:53] <stu343> it only opens a window with nothing in it
[19:53] <stu343> except that firefox loading symbol
[19:53] <Gnea> blackpearl: are you sure you setup your virtual network devices correctly?
[19:53] <stu343> in the right upper corner
[19:53] <BlehTM> Neconide - Kenshin:  OK, any idea for how to set up the dual boot?  Like how many GB for each?  I'm going to use Windows most the time, so how should I set it up?  Would it work to store the Ubuntu OS on one partition, Windows XP on another, and storage for both of them combined on a separate partition?
[19:53] <Gnea> !pm | blackpearl
[19:53] <Gnea> blackpearl: i tab-completed the wrong nick
[19:53] <kenshin_> BlehTM,  unless you have somthing valuable to loose (besides time)  format reinstall windows (whene installing windows create on partition for windows of the size you want and leave the rest as is )
[19:53] <Gnea> blackpearl: please pay attention
[19:54] <kenshin_> and the install linux ...
[19:54] <Murrlin> afternoon all
[19:54] <Neconide> BlehTM: I chose 65% for windows and the rest for Ubuntu.
[19:54] <kenshin_> grub as a boot loader ans you should have any problems at all
[19:54] <blackpearl> ok ubottu. Thnx. Gnea you agree with him
[19:55] <Gnea> blackpearl: ubottu is a bot...
[19:55] <Neconide> !bot | blackpearl
[19:55] <BlehTM> Neconide:  But is there a way to use a very limited amount of space for each OS, then have another drive for all programs for each, music, games, etc?
[19:55] <BlehTM> *partition
[19:56] <Neconide> BlehTM: I wouldn't know. Sorry.
[19:56] <kenshin_> BlehTM,  the topic of dual boot is so well covered that a simple search using "ubuntu dual boot" in your best friend google should yield a very very long liste of howtos ... you can pick what ever you want

[20:10] <keyhack> How can I install Ubuntu from a USB thumbdrive? I have no CDROM-drive available
[20:10] <Pici> lenswipe: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[20:11] <prodigel> keyhack, download the iso file and use the tool that comes with ubuntu 8.10
[20:11] <lenswipe> Pici: im using 8.04 hardy, im behind a proxy and ive fed ubuntu all the relevant details (including into synaptic) but it keeps saying connection refused
[20:11] <loller> i`ve just upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 and now i can`t set the screen resolution my video card is AT x1300
[20:11] <albertico> Booyaka, you can use samba for file sharing with windows
[20:11] <lenswipe> i can access the ubuntu machine through the network as its a webserver
[20:11] <DasEi> KleRoi:open a terminal ..
[20:11] <lenswipe> i just cant update the ubuntu machine
[20:11] <lenswipe> :@
[20:11] <prodigel> lenswipe, try using apt-get with proxy var set up
[20:11] <KleRoi> DasEi:  ok, well i did that and im looking at xorg.conf
[20:12] <KleRoi> DasEi:  this is what it looks like: http://pastebin.com/d2fe9e83c
[20:12] <lenswipe> prodigel: i have set my proxy in synaptic, firefox, and the preferences>Network proxy page
[20:12] <lenswipe> prodigel: i have also got ubuntu working behind a proxy before
[20:12] <lenswipe> prodigel: It has just suddenly stopped working
[20:12] <prodigel> lenswipe, synaptic I don't use. but apt-get worked for me through http proxy
[20:12] <DasEi> KleRoi:save (backup) it under a differnt name, f.e. : xorg.backk
[20:12] <darkhamm> what about a new network manager?
[20:12] <zenlunatic> can anyone recommend some pre-built ubuntu computers?
[20:13] <lenswipe> prodige;: synaptic, uses apt-get therfore if i set a proxy in synaptic it will be effective in apt-get
[20:13] <keyhack> prodigel: the Live USB Creator?
[20:13] <kervel> hello, how is the ubuntu security thing called again (not selinux but ...)
[20:13] <lenswipe> prodigel: Except its not effective in either....
[20:13] <jrib> kervel: apparmor
[20:13] <eddVRS> zenlunatic: Dell do some
[20:13] <DasEi> KleRoi:thats nice, as fglrx is already installed, seems
[20:13] <jrib> !selinux | kervel
[20:13] <kervel> jrib i think an upgrade left me with an unusable system because of that
[20:13] <KleRoi> DasEi: ok i backed it up
[20:13] <prodigel> keyhack, I don't know app name, but in system-adm you have crate bootable usb stick. that worked for me
[20:13] <kervel> jrib kde won't start saying "read only filesystem" all the time
[20:14] <kervel> it fails to set permissions on /tmp files
[20:14] <kervel> (eg dbus socket and so)
[20:14] <dropper_> I am trying to mount my usb stick but it complains it is already mounted
[20:14] <kervel> but it is definately mounted rw
[20:14] <keyhack> prodigel: yeah, that is what I'm doing, it is going extremely slow, and doesn't that just give me a USB thumbdrive that just runs the OS, but I won't be able to install?
[20:14] <DasEi> KleRoi:is it a pcle-card or agp ?
[20:14] <dropper_> but when I try to unmount it complains that it is not mounted
[20:14] <KleRoi> DasEi: erm, what does that mean? u mean motherboard?
[20:14] <kervel> what should the permissions of /tmp be ? mine are drwxrwxrwt
[20:15] <jrib> kervel: what is the output of 'mount'?
[20:15] <DasEi> KleRoi: pci-express or agp - port ?
[20:15] <prodigel> keyhack, it gives you the exact features of that iso
[20:15] <kervel> jrib  it says my "/" is mounted as XFS rw
[20:15] <KleRoi> DasEi: *cough* how do i discover that?
[20:15] <user01> Gnea, thanks! :)
[20:15] <KrimZon> does anyone know where i can find documention for the clearbuntu gtk2 engine?
[20:15] <jrib> kervel: can you write to it?
[20:15] <kervel> yeah
[20:16] <Gnea> user01: cheers :)
[20:16] <DasEi> KleRoi: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[20:16] <user01> Gnea, ta :)
[20:16] <kervel> and when i start X it bails out saying ".X11-unix" has suspicious permissions. Then i remove .X11-unix in /tmp and x will start, then kde won't start
[20:16] <DasEi> KleRoi: lspci | pastebinit
[20:16] <kervel> i'm desperate .. no errors in log, nothing in dmesg
[20:16] <strN00B> in FreeNX  using client for windows NoNameNX if I make changes to my Ubuntu system that require shutdown, can I shutdown using NoNameFX?
[20:16] <meoblast001> how do you unmount an iso?
[20:17] <KleRoi> DasEi: http://pastebin.com/f2698441b
[20:17] <kervel> when i try to chmod files, it says "read only file system"
[20:17] <Gnea> meoblast001: sudo umount /path/it/is/mounted/on
[20:17] <kervel> but when i try to create files / remove files it works
[20:18] <Gnea> kervel: see if this command works:  sudo apt-get update
[20:18] <jrib> kervel: pastebin the errors you got and the actual output of 'mount'
[20:18] <FuLio> How can i change my screen resolution if its not listed in the screen resolution menu?
[20:18] <kervel> jrib i can't access the net with that pc
[20:18] <jrib> !x > FuLio
[20:18] <Gnea> jrib: he can't start X, firefox won't get him there.
[20:18] <kervel> jrib because networkmanager won't start (because it cannot chown the dbus socket)
[20:18] <kervel> jrib in general chmod won't work ... any other file operations work
[20:18] <Gnea> kervel: you can't ping ubuntu.com?
[20:18] <jrib> kervel: copy them to a sub key or something
[20:19] <kervel> so i think its apparmor that prevents chmods
[20:19] <kervel> Gnea nope, i can't even load my wifi driver
[20:19] <yo> quick question.  and don't ban me, please.  Is there an ubuntu ftp program that does not suck?
[20:19] <kervel> ah no i can
[20:19] <kervel> i can load my wifi driver, but wpa setup won't work without network manager
[20:19] <jrib> !ftp | yo
[20:19] <fosco_> yo: filezilla
[20:19] <TJ-42> I suspect that I may be having hard drive hardware problems.  What command do I use to do a full scan of a hard drive for errors?
[20:19] <kervel> is there a way to boot without apparmor ? i really think that's the caused
[20:20] <RinTinTigger> can anyone help? Ekiga is showing my picture upside down
[20:20] <KleRoi> DasEi: dead? :)
[20:20] <yo> cool.  thanks.  (sorry, but !gFTP is giving me problems)
[20:20] <DasEi> KleRoi: so its a laptop with an onboard graphics ??
[20:20] <Gnea> RinTinTigger: try turning your camera upside down
[20:20] <KleRoi> DasEi:  yeah
[20:20] <RinTinTigger> Gnea lol...its laptop-integrated :D but thx
[20:21] <DasEi> KleRoi: is compiz enabled ?
[20:21] <user01> Gnea, ica client isnt the same thing as the web client?
[20:21] <jeebster> Hmm, ftp clients' list doesn't have filezilla...
[20:21] <Gnea> RinTinTigger: :) oh my... uhm... not sure
[20:21] <Gnea> user01: not sure.
[20:21] <KleRoi> DasEi:  i think so, i have some light graphic effect... although this is another question i had to do, i dont see where the compiz settings are in intrepid
[20:21] <akonkwa> i'm having problems with my resolution, I'm on Intrepid, i have just installed restricted nvidia drivers, and now my resolution is set to mximum 640x480 , when before i put the driver it was at 800x600(!), When I was on hardy it was on 1280x1024. I tried changing xorg.conf by adding ad "display" subsection with the correct resolution but it still won't work. Any help?
[20:21] <Murrlin> hello. how do I tell what color mode I'm in? (16 or 24)
[20:21] <raven> is there a hotkey for force quit?
[20:21] <raven> i have some misbehaving apps
[20:22] <raven> if not ill add the gnome applet
[20:22] <RinTinTigger> Anyone to help me? My laptop integrated webcam shows upside down picture with ekiga
[20:22] <Gnea> raven: you can open a terminal and use the kill -9 command in conjunction with the PID of the offending program(s)
[20:23] <madsj> has anybody managed to get eduroam running in ubuntu ? I'm trying to follow this guide: http://www.gbar.dtu.dk/index.php/Eduroam (see Ubuntu), but my network manager misses some of the points
[20:23] <jrib> raven: don't kill -9 unless you have to.  Use 'xkill' if you want
[20:23] <madsj> (keytype, I think and some other ones; am not a university where eduroam is availble)
[20:23] <allele> I am able to mount an iso image in ubuntu, (starcraft), but it doesn't see the iso when running the program, any suggestions?
[20:23] <madsj> am running 8.10
[20:23] <raven> xkill worked quite well
[20:24] <jrib> allele: you want to play starcraft?
[20:24] <akonkwa> i'm having problems with my resolution, I'm on Intrepid, i have just installed restricted nvidia drivers, and now my resolution is set to mximum 640x480 , when before i put the driver it was at 800x600(!), When I was on hardy it was on 1280x1024. I tried changing xorg.conf by adding ad "display" subsection with the correct resolution but it still won't work. Any help?
[20:24] <jrib> !x > akonkwa
[20:25] <allele> at the moment yeah, I have wine installed and was able to install starcraft on wine, but when I try running it it says the cd isn't in the drive
[20:25] <jrib> !appdb > allele
[20:25] <KleRoi> DasEi:  any ideas on whats wrong? is it compiz?
[20:25] <administrator_> is there gui editor for fstab?
[20:26] <visone> irie
[20:26] <strN00B> how can i restart the machine using FreeNX?
[20:26] <allele> ok, sorry if that was offtopic, I figured the problem was getting ubuntu to list the mounted image as another cd drive
[20:26] <mau> I found parted magic live cd
[20:26] <DasEi> KleRoi: I was checking few ideas on that (I#m running a 1600 on a dedicated pciE), compiz is found apps>sys desktop effects I think (actually on hardy here)
[20:26] <kervel> seems i have some serious xfs damage
[20:26] <kervel> but this is completely weird
[20:26] <jonek> how can I affect font setting of KDE3 apps (e.g. amarok) in Ubuntu Intrepid?
[20:26] <mau> Bye!
[20:27] <strN00B> when I go to Shutdown or Restart its just closing the Windows NoMachineNX Client and not the actual machine
[20:27] <DasEi> KleRoi: also my xorg.conf was empty when the blinking occured
[20:27] <kervel> because i don't see xfs complaining in my dmesg
[20:27] <God_> hai pici
[20:27] <KleRoi> DasEi:  mmm this is weird
[20:27] <KleRoi> DasEi:  I could try installing the drivers with Envy? what do you say?
[20:28] <nikitis> jonek: http://letmegooglethatforyou.com/?q=how+can+I+affect+font+setting+of+KDE3+apps
[20:28] <DasEi> KleRoi: pstebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[20:28] <strN00B> when I go to Shutdown or Restart its just closing the Windows NoMachineNX Client and not the actual machine
[20:28] <DasEi> KleRoi: one of the later choices, as xorg 7.4 issues with the prop. drivers, but fglrx itself works fine
[20:29] <KleRoi> DasEi: http://pastebin.com/m714ad5fb
[20:29] <DasEi> KleRoi: pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log  , sry, aah
[20:29] <KleRoi> haha
[20:30] <allele> ok, thanks ubottu :-D
[20:30] <sammy> I can ftp to a repository and the server responds, yet apt-get update tells me the connection to this repository times out. how can I enable some debugging or verbose logging for apt-get update?
[20:30] <kura> So I downloaded this ubuntu 8.10 from another location
[20:31] <FuLio> Hi, i know i have a nvidia graphic card, but i wanna know what model, how can i find out?
[20:31] <kura> But still there is no iso file
[20:31] <jrib> FuLio: lspci
[20:31] <LjL> FuLio: sudo lwhs -C display
[20:31] <FuLio> Thankyou
[20:31] <LjL> lshw, i meant
[20:31] <kura> What I should do?
[20:32] <DasEi> KleRoi:and also it is a mac ?
[20:32] <sammy> kura: what are you trying to do?
[20:33] <KleRoi> DasEi: no its an acer aspire 5672
[20:33] <eyyYo> Where can I find the crash logs on Ubuntu?
[20:33] <kura> I want install ubuntu
[20:33] <DasEi> KleRoi:This ATI Proprietary Linux Driver does not guarantee support of video driver ABI higher than 2.0   ,(current ibex is 4.0)  <<message from xorg
[20:33] <kura> But I download the ubuntu from official site
[20:33] <KleRoi> DasEi: damn! so what should i do? :(
[20:33] <AnnoyingMouse_> has anyone actually got flash on 64?
[20:33] <kura> and there is no iso file ;/
[20:33] <jrib> AnnoyingMouse_: flash has worked on 64 for a long time
[20:34] <Jared555> http://paste.ubuntu.com/74934/ <<< is that error most likely a hardware or software issue?
[20:34] <aoupi> AnnoyingMouse_: yea, works nicely for me
[20:34] <AnnoyingMouse_> nope. can't get it stable. installes the new v10 component. no dice
[20:34] <Jared555> I have two supposedly identical cards in the system
[20:34] <aoupi> jrib: adobe just released native 64bit plugin
[20:34] <jrib> aoupi: not stable
[20:34] <AnnoyingMouse_> from apt-get/add-remove?
[20:34] <aoupi> AnnoyingMouse_: you must remove the flashplugins-nonfree package
[20:34] <en1gm4> hi all
[20:34] <Slayer> Hello
[20:34] <aoupi> AnnoyingMouse_: I got it directly from adobe
[20:34] <AnnoyingMouse_> cewl. thanx
[20:34] <en1gm4> is there any software to convert midi to cda?
[20:35] <kura> So any ideas?
[20:35] <Slayer> I need help with the XP to Linux wireless card thing
[20:35] <erUSUL> !midi
[20:35] <kura> I make a screen shot aight?
[20:35] <Slayer> I would prefer my help be in PM
[20:35] <sammy> kura: what goes wrong when you try to download the iso through that URL?
[20:35] <Buster_Hymen> how do i update to the latest version of wine?  The version i downloaded from the repository (via sudo aptitude install wine) is v 1.0.1  ... my understanding is that later versions provide better support for office 2007
[20:35] <wwpiexec> I have a 16GB usb stick.. I want to partition it.. but whenever I unmount it either from desktop, nautilus, terminal or gparted.. ubuntu simply remounts it its very dangerous to try to working on it in this situation.. this happened on four computers, 2 8.10 and 2 8.04.. my USB is a OCZ ATV 16GB (OCZUSBATV16G)..
[20:35] <jrib> AnnoyingMouse_: just use the version ubuntu provides (32bit plugin with nspluginwrapper that you get automatically by installing flashplugin-nonfree).  The beta 64bit plugin from adobe is crashy in my experience
[20:35] <DasEi> KleRoi:I'm not shure, what's to be done: either you find someone with an integrated graphics, or use hary instead, as it's xorg supports it- to me a manuall config (put fglrx from ubuntu in) helped, but as it looks, there is some prop.loaded - depends on your patience, I guess (email ATI, gnarf)
[20:36] <Slayer> Anyone free to help me?
[20:36] <jrib> Slayer: best to just ask the channel your question.  If someone knows the answer, they will try to answer you
[20:36] <Buster_Hymen> !ask|slayer
[20:36] <Slayer> I'm getting weird errors and having problems installing ndiswrapper.
[20:36] <Buster_Hymen> Slayer:  did you try the tutorial on ubuntu forums?
[20:37] <sludge> Can anyone help me please geting my logitech quickcam webcam to work, I am working now with hardy heron after trying intripid
[20:37] <Slayer> I tried the one that came with it...
[20:37] <Buster_Hymen> Slayer, how do you mean?
[20:37] <Slayer> and I have Xubuntu
[20:37] <aoupi> AnnoyingMouse_: if you decide to go with the 64bit plugin from adobe, put it in /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins/
[20:37] <Slayer> and I un-zipped the file and clicked the 'install' file
[20:38] <Buster_Hymen> Slayer:  try the tutorial on ubuntu forums.  it's very complete.
[20:38] <Slayer> has instructions there
[20:38] <Slayer> can you link me?
[20:38] <Buster_Hymen> those instructions can vary greatly i think. yeah let me look for it
[20:38] <KleRoi> DasEi: mmm okay thanks for the help. i have another (bigger) problem, dont know if u can help me.  on my pc i got another partition with windows on, before i format and reinstalled ubuntu i had windows xp and hardy working perfectly, after the format i cant seem to boot xp properly. after the xp splash screen finishes loading it gets me to the user page where i normally would choose my user and put the password to login, but there are no users and only the
[20:38] <en1gm4> is there any software to convert midi to cda?
[20:38] <DasEi> anyone having trouble  with : notebook Intel 945GM /integrated ATi 1600 blinking screen ?
[20:38] <dr_willis> en1gm4,  there is software to convert Midi to wav,
[20:38] <dr_willis> !midi
[20:39] <Buster_Hymen> Slayer:  this looks like the one, but google literally churned out a half dozen tutorials -- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31926
[20:39] <en1gm4> dr_willis: is wav commonly played by cd players? I mean not mp3 and things like taht, but just old stereos...
[20:39] <Buster_Hymen> How do i update to the latest version of wine?  The version in the repos is 1.0.1 and i thought they were up to 1.0.3 already???
[20:39] <dr_willis> en1gm4,  I do belive that cd players use wav files of a specific rate.. yes...
[20:39] <ruperdupe> hey, I'm making an .iso image of a directory using the command mkisofs. However all the filenames in the resulting iso have ";1" after them. What's causing this?
[20:39] <wwpiexec> ok.. i just found out it is a problem when gparted refreshes device list

[20:40] <jgb> why would my hardy box be able to ping a xp box on the same subnet, but the xp box not get any ping reply from my hardy box?
[20:40] <jrib> !wine > Buster_Hymen
[20:40] <jrib> Buster_Hymen: use the winehq repos
[20:40] <dr_willis> jgb,  you can set up firewalls to ignore/block pings
[20:40] <DasEi> jgb:ping-response turned off on hardy box ? (f.e. firewall) ?
[20:40] <DasEi> *ping
[20:41] <dr_willis> *pong
[20:41] <jgb> my iptables has zero entries
[20:41] <KleRoi> i have this problem.  on my pc i got ubuntu intrepid and another partition with windows on, before i format and reinstalled ubuntu i had windows xp and hardy working perfectly, after the format i cant seem to boot xp properly. after the xp splash screen finishes loading it gets me to the user page where i normally would choose my user and put the password to login, but there are no users and only the windows xp logo in the middle, and i cant do anything so
[20:41] <dr_willis> jgb,  see if the xp boc can ssh to the hardy box?  can it do anything else to the box?
[20:42] <DasEi> KleRoi:thats sounds like a win problem, if it boots up until there
[20:42] <dr_willis> sounds like all the users/dirs got deleted...
[20:43] <dr_willis> Sounds like a problem for #windows :)
[20:43] <albertico> Buster_Hymen, i think 1.0.1 is latest stable
[20:43] <djungelkraem> Why is there an unmount icon next to my dvd-drive?
[20:43] <KleRoi> dr_willis: thats what i was afraid of, also because from ubuntu i can see the files that windows have, so its not like they got erased
[20:43] <dr_willis> djungelkraem,  so you can unmount it? and then eject it..
[20:43] <jrib> djungelkraem: you mean "eject icon"?
[20:43] <BlackDex> Hello there, is there a way to preserve the iwconfig wlan0 rate 24M settings? Everytime i reboot it looses these settings

[20:45] <james296> for some reason after trying to put it in that state, it automatically immediately goes back to the desktop
[20:45] <jgb> dr_willis: nope, nothing connects.  I ran wireshark on the hardy box, and the ping request arrives at the hardy box, but no answer is sent
[20:45] <dr_willis> james296,  often there is no 'fix' because it can be problem with bios non-standard features/quirks in the motherboard, and other  very hard to 'fix' problems.
[20:45] <jrib> djungelkraem: stay in channel so everyone can help

[20:48] <james296> wait nvm I was wrong
[20:48] <james296> I was lookin at the wrong hdd
[20:48] <LjL> scientes: you can, however, manually edit that postinst script and either fix it or put an "exit 0" at the beginning so it's never even executed
[20:48] <LjL> scientes: that's a hack, however
[20:48] <Elmnas> LJL I have removed the applets how do I get it again?
[20:48] <james296> it has 3.08gb of swap space
[20:48] <LjL> Elmnas: right click on that panel, and "Add applet"
[20:48] <scientes> LjL, thats so ugly though
[20:48] <BlastuR> if i generated a ssh key and put it on a remote server with ssh-copy-id, and add it to my ssh-agent using ssh-add, shouldn't I be able to login without a password? does it matter if my local username differs with the username on the server where im trying to login?
[20:49] <james296> like when I put it into suspend it sounds like it shuts down then immediately boots right back up again
[20:49] <djungelkraem> jrib: i dont know what to ask for.. i have a line that worked properly before i reinstalled ubuntu and i saved it and copy + pasted into my current fstab - but doesnt work
[20:49] <jrib> scientes: the fixing part isn't ugly :)
[20:49] <crik91> hi...I'm sorry but I don't speak english very well
[20:49] <jrib> djungelkraem: did you pastebin your fstab?
[20:49] <LjL> scientes, the ugly thing is that a package (especially a kernel!) would fail to postinst to begin with!
[20:49] <djungelkraem> no
[20:49] <KleRoi> dr_willis:  could you tell me what is the command to chkdisk the partition in wich i have windows?
[20:49] <LjL> scientes: any idea how that could happen?
[20:49] <crik91> I have a TOSHIBA Satellite A60-332
[20:49] <wwpiexec>  I have a 16GB usb stick.. I want to partition it.. but whenever I unmount it either from desktop, nautilus, terminal or gparted.. ubuntu simply remounts it its very dangerous to try to working on it in this situation.. this happened on four computers, 2 8.10 and 2 8.04.. my USB is a OCZ ATV 16GB (OCZUSBATV16G).. i figured out that the problem lies in gparted when you refresh device list...
[20:50] <crik91> but I can't installing ubuntu...
[20:50] <KleRoi> dr_willis:  its mounted on /dev/sda2 and its ntfc
[20:50] <Elmnas> LjL  when I loged on it said apple configuration was broken etc, so  I clicked in remove the configuration button
[20:50] <scientes> its the nvidia-common post-isntall but nvidia worked!
[20:50] <KleRoi> dr_willis: ntfs
[20:50] <LjL> !resetpanel | Elmnas
[20:50] <dr_willis>  KleRoi  i dont recall off hand.. its in the ntfs-utils package i recall. You dont want it to be mounted - i know that much.
[20:50] <james296> if you need to know my motherboard is a Lanparty dfi UT nF4
[20:50] <djungelkraem> jrib: http://pastebin.com/d4ceb531
[20:50] <sludge> I am trying now for at least one week to get my web-cam working with amsn until now it seemed next to impossible. I started with intripid and after reading some message turned back to hardy heron 8.04 because there is should work. I tried all and failed. My webcam is a classic: Logitech Quickcam when i start cheese i get a lot of noise and nothing more. I am getting very tired of this problem and even would consider buying a new webcam that works wi
[20:50] <scientes> Ljl its the nvidia-common post-isntall but nvidia driver worked!
[20:50] <magnetron> thebaggage→ i think i know what's wrong with your setup: you have an incorrect APN set in your Mobile Broadband settings. it's a hostname, sometimes called "data waypoint" or similar by your carrier
[20:50] <Elmnas> ok
[20:50] <lifebug> how can i upgrade my openoffice package from 2.4.1 to 3.0 using the _apt-application?_
[20:50] <LjL> scientes: you should file a bug about it, if you are using official packages only
[20:50] <jrib> djungelkraem: I don't know anything about samba, but I think you need to use cifs now.  See if someone else knows and check:
[20:51] <james296> oh SLI-D
[20:51] <jrib> !samba > djungelkraem
[20:51] <scientes> LjL, no i recompiled the ubuntu kernel
[20:51] <james296> so can anyone further help me with the problem here or...?
[20:51] <dr_willis> jgb,  you do have one machine working as a dhcp server? or did you set up static ips ?
[20:51] <Elmnas> LjL its removed forever now..
[20:51] <Elmnas> umm
[20:51] <DasEi> !who > james296
[20:51] <djungelkraem> jrib: so i should just change from smbfs to cifs?
[20:51] <crik91> I have download alternate CD and I installed successfully ubuntu intrepid but on startup: Error 18 (GRUB)
[20:52] <DasEi> james296: amount of ram ?
[20:52] <SuperDefenderX> Greetings room.
[20:52] <gusto5> im not quite sure what to gather from my google search, but is there a 'bug' with 2.6.27-7 and iwl3945?
[20:52] <gusto5> greetings SuperDefenderX
[20:52] <jrib> djungelkraem: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[20:52] <james296> 1.5gb
[20:52] <thebaggage> magnetron: Cheers for the idea. I assume the APN is the "telstra.internet" part(?) It's what I currently have entered, and it works fine through XP. Is it possible a locked modem could interfere with APN?
[20:52] <jgb> dr_willis: static
[20:52] <magnetron> djungelkraem→ skriv cifs, inte smbfs. SMBFS underhålls inte längre i kärnan, CIFS har ersatt det.
[20:53] <jgb> dr_willis: actually, one machine got it's ip from a dhcp server, and the xp box is static
[20:53] <djungelkraem> magnetron: tack!
[20:53] <dr_willis> jgb,  i would double check the network settings.. sounds like they may be on differnt ips. other then that.. not sure - you may want to set both to dhcp.
[20:53] <james296> !DaEi
[20:53] <tillux1> As far as I know, ubuntu 8.10 supports/uses mpx (that multi pointer x-server). I didn't find any up-to-date tutorial/howTo on how to enable/use this feature ;) (only for feisty...)
[20:54] <jgb> dr_willis: they are on the same subnet, only the last octet differs, 144 vs 145
[20:54] <james296> Dasey did you get my message?
[20:54] <sammy> I can ftp to a repository but apt-get update gives a 'connection timeout' error. where to go from here?
[20:54] <sammy> I've double checked spelling.
[20:54] <crik91> someone can help me please?
[20:54] <Elmnas> can someone help me to get back my main panel LjL said I should write this in terminal gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel
[20:54] <Elmnas> its gone forever now
[20:54] <jgb> dr_willis: as I said, wireshark shows me that the ping request arrives at the hardy box, but it doesn't answer
[20:54] <sammy> Elmnas: did you log out and log back in?
[20:55] <zsquareplusc> sammy: and apt also uses ftp urls or http? see /etc/apt/sources.list
[20:55] <tillux1> Elmnas: erm... try "gnome-panel&" ?
[20:55] <DasEi> james296: almost not, my nick is DasEi, please put that in your messages;  open a terminal :
[20:55] <magnetron> thebaggage→ the APN should be a valid DNS hostname. as an example, my carrier uses "data.tre.se". you need to ask your carrier to get the correct setting. however, if your modem is locked to another provider it could mess things up. good luck!
[20:55] <dr_willis> jgb,  that dosent really explain much tho. :()   im out of ideas..
[20:55] <teimu> does making a file executable (for example, with chmod +x) change any of the contents of the file?
[20:55] <james296> then?
[20:55] <DasEi> james296: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[20:55] <sammy> zsquareplusc: I've checked the file, I double checked the spelling and I can successfully ftp to the server listed
[20:55] <Elmnas> no I have to do this+
[20:55] <_moro_bana_> hello, help , i wanna make my ubuntu look like the terminal, black and green
[20:55] <DasEi> !who > james296
[20:55] <Elmnas> log in and out?
[20:56] <Elmnas> brb
[20:56] <sammy> Elmnas: try logging in and logging back out. the panel should be started by the gnome session manager that starts all the gnome applications that start when you log in
[20:56] <zsquareplusc> sammy: you dont have set a proxy in apt's config?
[20:56] <DasEi> !tab | james296
[20:56] <dr_willis> _moro_bana_,  set your colors to black and green then?
[20:56] <sludge> Error 18 GRUB error 18 Grub Error 18: Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS root (hd0,2)
[20:56] <Elmnas> ok
[20:56] <gusto5> or always declare a name* if you want james296
[20:56] <BlackDex> Is there a way to preserve the iwconfig wlan0 rate 24M settings? Everytime i reboot it looses these settings.
[20:56] <DasEi> james296: pastebinit /var/log/syslog
[20:56] <jgb> dr_willis: thanks
[20:56] <DasEi> james296: give resulting url here
[20:57] <gusto5> so anything about 2.6.27-7 and iwl for me?
[20:57] <administrator_> where is mplayer codecs folder?
[20:57] <jrib> administrator_: why would you need to know that?
[20:57] <sammy> zsquareplusc: no proxy, no.
[20:58] <info_> my printer drives me crazy i cant print i use linux
[20:58] <Elmnas> hi sammy im back.
[20:58] <info_> hello
[20:58] <Elmnas> but  the panel is back but got the same problem I can explain
[20:59] <jack00> hi guys
[20:59] <administrator_> i need to unzip some codecs to the folder.. i need codecs for rm
[20:59] <thebaggage> magnetron: Cheers. Sadly, apn is correct (telstra.internet works fine in XP). Card (might be) locked, but to the network I'm connecting to to. Thanks for trying anyhow. :-)
[20:59] <Elmnas> Hi guys can someone help me please I have a eeepc with ubuntu eee and I removed the application called ume-desktop launcher its like a css mall for all stuff, I want a orginal MAIN MENU but its like this --  http://img252.imageshack.us/img252/3509/screenshotri0.png
[20:59] <_moro_bana_> dr_willis: its been a year since I saw you on the channel. Im not new to Ubuntu but I dont know how to set my colors to green and black
[20:59] <jack00> i'm trying to install with crossover professional sketchup 6, but i get an error about opengl, can someone help me?
[21:00] <joaopinto> !wine | jack00
[21:00] <sammy> Elmnas: you're missing the default menu?
[21:00] <zsquareplusc> sammy: or do you have set a proxy for root, that is getting used when you sudo?
[21:00] <Elmnas> yeah exctly
[21:00] <magnetron> thebaggage→ telstra.internet is NOT a valid APN. some carriers provide extra software that will connect to the right APN whatever you enter in the field
[21:00] <Elmnas> when I logged in after I removed the application it said this 1  sek
[21:01] <sammy> zsquareplusc: nope, no proxys at all.
[21:01] <jack00> joapinto, i've tried also with wine, but i got the same error :(
[21:01] <sammy> Elmnas: in the preferences, you can change how your menu appears. preferences > main menu.
[21:01] <Elmnas> apple bla bla bla configuration is broken you want to delete the confiiguration I said yes
[21:01] <Elmnas> I cant go there man...
[21:01] <zsquareplusc> sammy: so if you copy and paste one of the addresses and use wget instead of apt get, it works?
[21:02] <Elmnas> Its just the icons on the panel and if I click on the ubuntu icon, its like a launcher to the full desktop
[21:02] <allinthefamily> question about frequency scaling monitor in gnome-panel for ibex
[21:02] <sammy> Elmnas: are you sure you have the menu applet in your panel? if you reset your panel defaults, then the applets should appear as they do when you instal ubuntu.
[21:02] <thebaggage> magnetron: Ahh - interesting. The Intrepid Mobile Connection installer suggests telstra.datapack, which works in neither XP nor Linux...I'll keep digging. Cheers.
[21:02] <gusto5> jack00, you could always drop codeweavers a support ticket
[21:02] <Elmnas> the applet I removed it I guess
[21:03] <sammy> Elmnas: try right clicking the panel and adding a main menu applet. or try alt-f1
[21:03] <sammy> zsquareplusc: I was using the ftp program to attach to the server. let me try a wget on the full URL
[21:03] <gusto5> jack00, Sketchup 6 as in the google thing?
[21:03] <Elmnas> doesnt work
[21:03] <jrib> administrator_: no, just use w32codecs from the medibuntu repository
[21:03] <Elmnas> how do I restall
[21:03] <Elmnas> the applets
[21:03] <jrib> !medibuntu > administrator_
[21:03] <Elmnas> I think I have removed it..
[21:03] <Elmnas> sorry
[21:03] <FloodBot1> Elmnas: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:03] <Elmnas> ok ok
[21:03] <jack00> gusto, yes, sketchup is a google application
[21:04] <hwilde> is there any web interface based sniffer?  I have apache, can I interface to wireshark or something?
[21:04] <sludge> Does anyone have a working webcam under ubuntu intripid, if so could you please tell me what brand you use :-)
[21:04] <allinthefamily> Question about CPU scaling applet for gnome panel ibex. I have one for each processor (2) but one or both keep disappearing on reboot/resume/wake from suspend. Responds to clicks, but nothing on display.
[21:04] <DasEi> !pm > james296
[21:05] <hwilde> sludge, logitech quickcam pro 4000 & 5000
[21:05] <hwilde> takes  a bit of hacking tho :)
[21:05] <sammy> zsquareplusc: ah-ha! No such file 'debian'. I'll take it up with the repository managers, thanks.
[21:05] <Elmnas> samy how I do restall the applet?
[21:05] <sammy> zsquareplusc: though a no such file should not yield a 'connection timeout' error from apt-get. ill file a bug, too.
[21:05] <Mahoodi> hello guys i just got and eee pc 1000 that came with win xp preinstalled, anyone know how to make eeebuntu bootable from a flash drive? im using windows atm
[21:05] <hwilde> !usb > Mahoodi
[21:06] <sludge> I am just starting with ubuntu, so hacking is just out of my reach right now.
[21:06] <dr_willis> Mahoodi,  the unetbootin tool can make a bootable-live thumbdrive
[21:06] <gusto5> jack00, try this guide on installing OpenGL support in Wine
[21:06] <gusto5> jack00, http://www.howtodude.net/howto/view.article.php/430
[21:06] <Elmnas> sudo apt-get install gnome-applets?
[21:06] <zsquareplusc> Mahoodi: does http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ work?
[21:06] <pavol> has anyone ever tried installing the dislin graphics package?
[21:06] <Melik> hey guys how can i change the "name" of the computer?
[21:06] <dr_willis> !hostname | Melik
[21:06] <sammy> Elmnas: what are you trying to do?
[21:07] <n8tuser> Mahoodi -> doesnt the eeepc have a bios you have to configure to tell it to boot from a usb flash drive?
[21:07] <gusto5> jack00, and as always, give them a shout in #crossover
[21:07] <Elmnas> im in the synaptic manager there, and I havent installed gnome-applets
[21:07] <BlackDex> Is there a way to preserve the iwconfig wlan0 rate 24M settings? Everytime i reboot it looses these settings.
[21:07] <n8tuser> BlackDex -> try setting that in /etc/network/interfaces file
[21:07] <Elmnas> either gnome-applets-dbg
[21:08] <jack00> thanks, i'll do
[21:08] <sammy> Elmnas: what are you trying to do now? if you're just missing your menu, right clicking on the panel and clicking 'add to panel' should give you a list of things you can add to the panel, and one of them should be 'main menu'
[21:08] <Melik> dr_willis, i don't see a Networking on the general tab; /
[21:09] <Mahoodi> dr_willis, is that tool hard to use or simple?
[21:09] <Elmnas> umm brb
[21:09] <BlackDex> n8tuser: Thx i will try that
[21:09] <allinthefamily> can anyone help me with disappearing cpu freq scaling applets?
[21:09] <BlackDex> n8tuser: do i just add iwconfig wlan0 rate 24M or something??
[21:10] <stealthy45> Need some serious help here sharing a printer.
[21:10] <JackEStorm> ok, so, apt-get dist-upgrade kicks back " E: Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (2) on libc6"  does apt-get have a hidden option to trace the upgrade process?
[21:10] <n8tuser> BlackDex -> man interfaces   to give you a sample of what needs to be in that file
[21:10] <stealthy45> I'm trying to share a printer on an Ubuntu 8.10 box over my home network with my Windows boxes
[21:10] <bonsai> i need to ask a question
[21:11] <bonsai> i have a computer with windows xp
[21:11] <stealthy45> Whenever I try to add this printer on the Windows boxes, I'm prompted for adriver. No matter which driver I choose (Correct one isHP 895Cse), I'm told that I can't connect to the printer.
[21:11] <bonsai> and i am sharing a printer on that machine
[21:11] <stealthy45> What shoud I do to fix that?
[21:11] <bonsai> and i have a work station with ubuntu 8.04 server edition
[21:11] <erUSUL> bonsai: all in one line please
[21:11] <bonsai> i am using a switch,not a router and ubuntu is not finding the shared printer
[21:11] <mmcji> howdee
[21:12] <sgraham> ok im trying to use the gnome frontend for rdesktop. (Mainly becuase it has an option for tunneling via ssh)  But that is the one thing i cant seem to get to work right
[21:12] <bonsai> what should i do?
[21:12] <dr_willis> Mahoodi,  unetbootin - a few clicks and its done
[21:12] <chino> how do i cahnge the handler for jpg ?
[21:12] <eddVRS> mmcji: hi
[21:12] <chino> so when i click on it
[21:12] <chino> it uses the image viewer ?
[21:12] <dr_willis> !changedefaults
[21:12] <joaopinto> bonsai, do you have connectivity to the printer? can you ping it ?
[21:12] <dr_willis> Hmm...
[21:12] <mmcji> anyone know of a good linux application  to convert .swf to .exe?
[21:12] <bonsai> of course
[21:12] <joaopinto> mmcji, .exe on linux ??
[21:12] <bonsai> i amd trying to connect using samba too
[21:12] <dr_willis> chino,  right click on a file and in its properties you can change that.
[21:12] <mmcji> eddVRS: hi back
[21:12] <dr_willis> !defaultapps
[21:12] <bonsai> but there's nothing shared for the ubuntu
[21:13] <stealthy45> I've been googling this all day. I can ping the ubuntu machine fine and access the samba shares
[21:13] <sludge> I like to get into the ubuntu scene and leave windows xp. I am having trouble getting some vital parts of my system to work. Does ubuntu have a list of supported hardware and if so where can i find it?
[21:13] <stealthy45> but upon trying to use the shard printer, I'm told I can't connect to it.
[21:13] <bonsai> i can ping the machine that there is the printer installed and shared on int
[21:13] <dr_willis> !hardware
[21:13] <bonsai> of course,i can ping the machine
[21:13] <mmcji> joaopinto: yes, i am creating a presentation in flash but want to deliver it in a single file.
[21:13] <joaopinto> bonsai, you need to know what type of sharing does the printer provide, usually its either jetdirect (9001) or samba (windows alike)
[21:13] <dr_willis> stealthy45,  this shared printer is on a Ubuntu box? or a windows box?
[21:13] <joaopinto> mmcji, so you mean to create a binary, not an .exe
[21:13] <djungelkraem> magnetron: att ändra till cifs?
[21:14] <stealthy45> dr_willis: The printer is on the Ubuntu box, set up and working, able to print jobs from the Ubuntu box.
[21:14] <mmcji> i want to stay away from java as we have dependency issues with other java apps we use in the office.
[21:14] <adi_> hi all
[21:14] <bonsai> i tried using samba,but nothing
[21:14] <djungelkraem> magnetron: det funkade inte att ändra till cifs*
[21:14] <joaopinto> mmcji, or you really want a .exe to be run on windows ?
[21:14] <bonsai> i am trying to use a wireless router and the try to find the printer
[21:14] <adi_> how to turn off the beep on ubuntu interpid
[21:14] <AzizLight> hi everybody
[21:14] <magnetron> djungelkraem→ du måste installera stöd för CIFS först. har du gjort det?
[21:14] <sgraham> anyone worked with that.  Im trying to work from a liunx box I need to tunnel through another linux box to a network on the other side that has windows machiens on it.  I usually use vnc with the via switch but in this case these windows boxes do not have vncservers on them and they do have rdp running on them so i wanted to just use the via command with rdp, no luck on that though
[21:14] <dr_willis> stealthy45,  I belive the smb.conf file has some 'guest' options in it to allow the windows users to print without logging into the linux box.. Otherwise Int he past ive had to have the windows users connect to a 'share' on the ubuntu box, befor they could print..
[21:15] <djungelkraem> magnetron: nope - vilket paket?
[21:15] <adi_> everytime I start ubuntu and shut down it make a terrible beep
[21:15] <carpii> is there a better archive manager for kde, than Ark? Im finding it really dreadful :(
[21:15] <s0l1dsnak3123> bonsai: you need to use samba
[21:15] <dr_willis> stealthy45,  i also tend to set up linux and windows users with same name and password. (and samba password, sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME)
[21:15] <AzizLight> is ext3 readable by os x?
[21:15] <mmcji> yes, it will be run on XP PC's.  I wish we had ubuntu at work, but we do not.  I am already hosting the swf via webserver, but need the ability to distribut the training material as well
[21:15] <bonsai> i tried to use samba
[21:15] <adi_> does anyone have that beep when shut down interpid
[21:15] <dr_willis> adi_,  ive noticed that shutdown beep also.. its annoying. :)
[21:15] <magnetron> djungelkraem→ paketet heter "smbfs"
[21:15] <mmcji> also, I am open to other ideas as well
[21:15] <stealthy45> dr_willis: Needless to say, I'm at wit's end with this.
[21:15] <adi_> yeah
[21:15] <LjL> carpii: i don't know of any, but try asking in #kubuntu as well
[21:16] <adi_> what can we do?
[21:16] <s0l1dsnak3123> bonsai, check this tutorial out:
[21:16] <bonsai> i try to install a fresh install of ubuntu and i'll install again the samba
[21:16] <carpii> thanks LjL
[21:16] <stealthy45> dr_willis: Guests are allowed.
[21:16] <zsquareplusc> mmcji: youln't you just wrap it in a html page and use the browser's plugin?
[21:16] <sgraham> and is there a simple way to make a shortcut to your home dir onto the desktop in gnome??
[21:16] <Dave__> hi everybody, i've a problem in using my EPL-5900 epson printer in Intrepid, ubuntu knows my printer but when i order to print a document, nothing will happen
[21:16] <adi_> once I knew some command like pckrg
[21:16] <djungelkraem> magnetron: kan jag itne bara köra med smbfs då istället i fstab? eller är cifs bättre?
[21:16] <techqber1> NetworkManager on Ubuntu 8.10 doesn't support TKIP?  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=938469
[21:16] <adi_> or somthing like that
[21:16] <magnetron> djungelkraem→ CIFS är *mycket* bättre.
[21:16] <mmcji> zsquareplusc: i have that setup right now
[21:17] <n8tuser> mmcji -> look into downloadable executable jar
[21:17] <dr_willis> stealthy45,  there goes that idea then.. Try identical usernames on both machines?  try connecting to some other share first.. (i know its weird. but ive had to do that in the past)
[21:17] <djungelkraem> magnetron: ok tack :)
[21:17] <LjL> djungelkraem, magnetron: fattat att ni är i #ubuntu inte #ubuntu-se här? ;)
[21:17] <stealthy45> dr_willis: I have also tried that. I'm sitting on the file share.
[21:17] <JoeDaMac> Anyone have an ideas regarding this problem? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=988507
[21:17] <magnetron> LjL→ ja :)
[21:17] <mmcji> but I need to get the training to folks that do not have access to our training server...ie folks on the road..etc...
[21:17] <djungelkraem> magnetron: i will test rebooting then :)
[21:17] <mmcji> n8tuser: I will thank you
[21:17] <adi_> also I noticed that the shutdown window with icons (hibernate suspend restart etc) is not the same on interpid
[21:17] <dr_willis> stealthy45,  i guess the only thing left would be to enable verbose logging in the samba server, and cups server to see whats going on..
[21:17] <histo> Need help trying to specify monitor settings in xorg.conf to get to my native resolution but X crashes if I enter them.
[21:18] <Guest98020> hi
[21:18] <histo> shouldn't say crashes it restarts
[21:18] <magnetron> djungelkraem→ "sudo mount -a" should be enough

[21:18] <Dave__> hi everybody, i've a problem in using my EPL-5900 epson printer in Intrepid, ubuntu knows my printer but when i order to print a document, nothing will happen
[21:18] <adi_> this beep is very annoying
[21:18] <zsquareplusc> mmcji: you can also zip the html and flash files to do offline distributions. or the scrapbook plugin for FF can package a webite inclusive images and subpages into a folder
[21:18] <s0l1dsnak3123> bonsai, http://www.unix-tutorials.com/go.php?id=577
[21:19] <n8tuser> Dave__ -> is your cups enabled? look for the ppd files for it?
[21:19] <JoeDaMac> So, first time trying to boot off the livecd, text only install, on multiple versions. Same problem with all of them, I get *no video*, whatsoever, from the moment my Mac Mini starts to boot from the CD
[21:19] <JoeDaMac> no command prompts, splash screens, anything
[21:19] <adi_> it wakes up my room mate at 3 a'clock in the moring
[21:19] <JoeDaMac> I do hear the Ubuntu *chime* after about 2-3 minutes
[21:19] <Dave__> hi everybody, i've a problem in using my EPL-5900 epson printer in Intrepid, ubuntu knows my printer but when i order to print a document, nothing will happen
[21:19] <adi_> can anyone help?

[21:20] <schmrz> adi_: what beep?
[21:20] <Reggy_Love> i need help to auto mount external ntfs hard disk's, not only one hardsik called somthing, i would like it just as in windows where every disk i plug in just works. im using a dell inspiron 6000 and have a fresh ubuntu 8.10 install.
[21:20] <zsquareplusc> adi_: try to write your question on _one_ line. its hard to follow you
[21:20] <stealthy45> dr_willis: To be more specific in my issue, when I connect to the printer, I get an error saying that the server does not have the correct driver installed, and to choose the most appropriate one. So I choose the right driver, click "ok", and am told "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Access is denied."
[21:20] <adi_> I get a terrible beep every time i shutdown interpid
[21:21] <Dave__> i've a problem in using my EPL-5900 epson printer in Intrepid, ubuntu knows my printer but when i order to print a document, nothing will happen,anyone can help?
[21:21] <n8tuser> !repeat | Dave__
[21:21] <adi_> it sound like a bios beep cause it beeps even with the speakers of my laptop muted
[21:22] <meoblast001> how do DLL's get copied to the .wine folder when you upgrade wine... i just "upgraded" wine by merging a mandriva package with my filesystem
[21:22] <n8tuser> meoblast001 -> perhaps you can as the nice folks in #winehq  ?
[21:22] <zsquareplusc> adi_: somtimes there is a PC-speaker channel in the volume controls
[21:22] <meoblast001> ok
[21:22] <Dave__> exit
[21:22] <JoeDaMac> Is there a way to change resolutions, blindly, in Ubuntu? My display is out of range when I try to use the LiveCD or the alternate install.
[21:22] <ohubuntu> where could i change the power settings, like disabling standby and the monitor turning off?
[21:22] <adi_> dell inspiron 6400/1505
[21:23] <n8tuser> ohubuntu -> did you look in your bios if you have those settings?
[21:23] <erUSUL> JoeDaMac: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg' from the recovery mode root shell
[21:23] <ohubuntu> yes, they're not in there
[21:23] <sandra28ans> bonsoir
[21:23] <n8tuser> !who
[21:23] <zsquareplusc> JoeDaMac: the laternate cd has a text mode install :-)  or maybe ctrl+alt+keypad+/- changes the resolution
[21:23] <JoeDaMac> Thanks erUSUL, but, how do I get to the recovery mode? I can't actually see anything onscreen.
[21:24] <ohubuntu> my real problem is i'm using virtual box and if my computer screen turns off after 20 minutes or so, my keyboard stops working in virtual box
[21:24] <dookdook> i think i'm having some versioning issues with java 1.4 vs. java 1.5...doing apt-cache search java i only see j2sdk1.4 and i need 1.5 or later...do i need to install this myself?
[21:24] <erUSUL> JoeDaMac: not even grub menu??
[21:24] <JoeDaMac> I see *nothing*
[21:24] <joaopinto> oholiks, try asking on #vbox
[21:24] <JoeDaMac> from the moment the cd starts to load
[21:24] <histo> I have nviddia drivers install and I can only get to a resolution of 1024x768 although my monitor suports 1920x1200
[21:25] <histo> I need help getting to that res
[21:25] <erUSUL> JoeDaMac: ooops it is the livecd... i though it was a installed system
[21:25] <maxxist> histo did you run nvidia-settins
[21:25] <joaopinto> dooglus, you shoud use openjdk-6-jre, unless you have strong need to use other version
[21:25] <keyhack> I booted Ubuntu 7.10 Live CD on OS X using VMWare Fusion, and use the "Create USB startup disk", and it successfully completes. I place it into the new PC, and I just get "Boot error" at startup. Any ideas?
[21:25] <maxxist> histo did you run nvidia-settings
[21:25] <erUSUL> JoeDaMac: you can not use safe graphics mode?
[21:25] <zsquareplusc> dookdook: how about sun-java6-jdk or openjdk-6-jdk
[21:25] <Mahoodi_> if i install eeebuntu with unetbootin will it erase windows or duel boot after installation?
[21:25] <histo> maxxist, no
[21:25] <JoeDaMac> nope, live cd, and I've tried the alternate text only, erUSUL
[21:26] <JoeDaMac> erUSUL, how would I go about doing that?
[21:26] <maxxist> histo try running sudo nvidia-settings and use it to identify your monitor
[21:26] <erUSUL> JoeDaMac: well the alternatecd was my next suggestion
[21:26] <JoeDaMac> should've mentioned this is literally my first taste of linux
[21:26] <JoeDaMac> yeah, tried that, erUSUL
[21:26] <JoeDaMac> same problem
[21:26] <n8tuser> Mahoodi -> doesnt the eeepc have a bios you have to configure to tell it to boot from a usb flash drive?
[21:26] <dookdook> zsquareplusc, i'm agnostic.  whatever works...should i just apt-get those?
[21:26] <erUSUL> JoeDaMac: the alternatecd uses a text based installer... it is very weird you can not see anyting with it either...
[21:26] <zsquareplusc> Mahoodi_: i think you use it to prepare a USB stick which you will boot on the EEEPC. when the distributuin runs the ubuntu installer (i dont know if it is) it will as you what do you with the HD
[21:26] <djungelkraem> magnetron: didnt work :(
[21:27] <keyhack> zsquareplusc: wish that was the case for me
[21:27] <Reggy_Love> i need help to auto mount external ntfs hard disk's, not only one hardsik called somthing, i would like it just as in windows where every disk i plug in just works. im using a dell inspiron 6000 and have a fresh ubuntu 8.10 install.
[21:27] <magnetron> djungelkraem→ what was that fstab again?
[21:27] <Mahoodi_> zsquareplusc, thanks
[21:27] <JoeDaMac> erUSUL, it is strange, but whatever resolution its trying to use is out of range. I know it loads eventually, as I can hear the Ubuntu chime after about 2-3 minutes
[21:27] <djungelkraem> magnetron: tested with both smbfs, cifs
[21:27] <iaindalton> Has anyone gotten an Xbox 360 controlly to work in Ubuntu 8.10?
[21:27] <djungelkraem> magnetron: ill look it up
[21:27] <histo> maxxist, yes i've run this it does nothing
[21:27] <zsquareplusc> dookdook: there is also a -5 package these correspond to 1.5 and 1.6 iirc. install whichever provider you like more.
[21:28] <dookdook> zsquareplusc, how does that work?
[21:28] <James296> ok back
[21:28] <JoeDaMac> erUSUL, is there some straightforward way I can open up a command prompt, and enter something that will change my display to a specific, or different, resolution?
[21:28] <JoeDaMac> blindly, of course
[21:28] <maxxist> histo it didnt detect the monitor?
[21:28] <tzunami> sal all
[21:28] <zsquareplusc> dookdook: hm? what do you mean exactly?
[21:29] <erUSUL> JoeDaMac: all i can suggest is to try another ubuntu version like 8.04 LTS then you can upgrade (if it installs)
[21:29] <histo> maxxist, correct its just detected as CRT 0 though its an LCD 23"
[21:29] <unop> JoeDaMac, xrandr -s 1024x768
[21:29] <JoeDaMac> erUSUL =(, tried that...
[21:29] <maxxist> brb
[21:29] <JoeDaMac> unop, I can't actually see anything while booting, what would I do to be able to enter that command?
[21:29] <zsquareplusc> JoeDaMac: if you're doing that from an other sceen you might need to set DISPLAY=:0
[21:30] <dookdook> zsquareplusc, are you saying that there is a 1.5 package that i can download?  or that i can use apt-get for? (is -5 an option of some sort or you're just referring to the j2sdk version?)
[21:30] <erUSUL> JoeDaMac: tried switching to a virtual terminal? Crtl + alt + f1 (or f 23 4 5) ??
[21:30] <JackEStorm> apt-get dist-upgrade kicks back "E: Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (2) on libc6" ...how can I find the real error?
[21:30] <pavol64> has anyone ever tried to setup the dislin graphics package for c++ on linux?
[21:30] <reconn> hi, my notebook display brightness gets dimmed when I dont move the mouse or press a key for 1 min
[21:30] <zsquareplusc> dookdook: ah. i mean there is a sun-java5-jdk as well as a sun-java6-jdk
[21:30] <JoeDaMac> erUSUL Ok, now we're getting somewhere. When would I switch to a virtual terminal, after I hear the Ubuntu *chime*?
[21:31] <JoeDaMac> or immediately at startup?
[21:31] <reconn> hi, my notebook display brightness with Ubuntu 8.10 gets dimmed when I dont move the mouse or press a key for 1 min ||| where can I turn this off? "DIm Display"-box is unticked in power management.
[21:31] <zsquareplusc> JoeDaMac: maybe you can switch to the text console using ctrl+alt+f1. it works on PC like machines.. dont know about macs
[21:31] <erUSUL> JoeDaMac: yep. but i'm not really  sure if the livecd has VTs but you can try
[21:32] <James296> !DasEi may I pm you again?
[21:32] <JoeDaMac> so, try that, and type in xrandr -s 1024x768, enter, and it should change my display's resolution?
[21:32] <Reggy_Love> cant i setup ubuntu so that it mounts any usb hard disk i plug in ?
[21:32] <gusto5> reconn, did you set it for plugged in power and battery?
[21:32] <PriceChild> Anyone here set up an exchange account with evolution, but most importantly... openned a second mailbox?
[21:32] <DasEi> James296: why ?
[21:32] <James296> so we can continue talking about whats going on here
[21:33] <Buster_Hymen> how do i install wine 1.1.7?
[21:33] <Buster_Hymen> i have 1.0.1 from the repos
[21:33] <dookdook> zsquareplusc, or i could roll back the jre...but i only see java5 and java6, which i'm assuming are 1.5 and 1.6 resp....why is the jre and j2sdk mismatched?
[21:33] <James296> I typed in what you told me to and it says /dev/sdb1: clean, 151076/4685824 files, 1325473/18737806 blocks
[21:33] <Buster_Hymen> !wine|Buster_Hymen
[21:33] <DasEi> James296: no need to pm, just put my nick in front your answers (no "!") needed (ro-bot trigger)
[21:33] <DasEi> !brain
[21:33] <zsquareplusc> dookdook: actually, i dont know.. i dont use java - i use python :-)
[21:34] <erUSUL> Buster_Hymen: winehq has an up to date ubuntu repo
[21:34] <JoeDaMac> so, just in case anyone else has any ideas, here's a synopsis of my problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=988507
[21:34] <DasEi> James296: open a terminal...
[21:34] <James296> DasEi ok
[21:34] <dookdook> zsquareplusc, personally not a big fan of java, but i'm trying to get a processing example going...
[21:34] <Buster_Hymen> erUSUL:  thanks, do you happen to know what it is or how to find it?
[21:34] <James296> its already open
[21:34] <DasEi> James296: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[21:34] <maxxist> histio so you even tried hitting the  the identify button in nvidia-settings and nothing?
[21:34] <info_> =( linux and printers are no friends
[21:35] <DasEi> James296: sudo  fdisk -l pastebinit
[21:35] <n8tuser> info_ -> wrong, do not be mis-informed
[21:35] <DasEi> James296: sudo  fdisk -l | pastebinit          ,sry
[21:35]  * zsquareplusc has a PS printer that is a frient to linux :-)
[21:35] <erUSUL> Buster_Hymen: google
[21:35] <maxxist> histio i meant detect displays  under X Server Display Configuration.
[21:35] <erUSUL> Buster_Hymen: winehq + ubuntu + repo
[21:35] <Buster_Hymen> erUSUL:  fair enough =)  thanks very much
[21:36] <AzizLight> is there a way to reset/reload a terminal (the equivalent of opening a new tab/window and closing the current one) using bash?
[21:36] <JackEStorm> so no ideas on my problem?
[21:36] <info_> my epson makes problem and no printjob is working
[21:36] <sinuc> AzizLight: reset
[21:36] <James296> it cant find pastebinit...
[21:36] <reconn> gusto5 there are only two tabs. one's "On AC Power" and one "General". in the latter there is no dim option
[21:36] <erUSUL> AzizLight: "crtl + l" or "clear"
[21:36] <gusto5> reconn, you dont have a "on battery power" tab?
[21:37] <reconn> nope
[21:37] <gusto5> reconn, you did say notebook yes?
[21:37] <reconn> yes.
[21:37] <AzizLight> erUSUL: clear just clears the screen. I want to reset the terminal literraly
[21:37] <sinuc> erUSUL: thats just clearing the buffer of the terminal emulator
[21:37] <KleRoi> hello, I have 2 partitions on my hd, one with ubuntu and one with windows xp. before yesterday everything worked fine and I could load any of the 2 os with grub, but today i formatted the partition with ubuntu and reinstalled it (8.10, intrepid) and now I'm not able to load windows xp anymore: after i choose xp from the grub menu and the splash screen finishes loading it gets me to the welcome screen where i would normally choose my user and put the pw to l
[21:37] <gusto5> reconn, that is bizarre
[21:37] <sinuc> AzizLight: reset ; source /etc/profile - should  do the job
[21:37] <reconn> gusto5 a friend of mine has the same problem afaik
[21:37] <reconn> he too uses a notebook with intrepid
[21:37] <AzizLight> sinuc: im on mac, I tried reset but I get a massage saying Erase is delete (and then on a new line) Interrupt is Control-C (^C)
[21:38] <wasabi> Are there any good free softare packages that can 'make ubuntu secure' against resource allocation attacks, like fork bombs, exhausting memory, etc?
[21:38] <sdfwsfw> does ubuntu remove the cached packages after they're installed? i'm using like 30gb and nothing is in /home....
[21:38] <wasabi> That is, without me tweaking everything myself. :0
[21:38] <DrX> i created dir/subdir1 and dir/subdir2 but my clients cannot access either.  I gather this is a permissions issue, so how do i set permissions on /dir so that anything created under it automatically assumes the permissions given to /dir ?
[21:38] <Ximal> What command or website on my localhost should i be visiting to run the program cgiirc
[21:38] <James296> DasEi: it cant find pastebinit...
[21:38] <chino> help... how do i change the default handler when i click on a jpg ?
[21:38] <Buster_Hymen> erUSUL:  once i've added the repository i just need to run sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade, correct?
[21:38] <sinuc> hm, dunno then, no clue about this macstuff
[21:38] <sinuc> they may have changed a few or too much stuff
[21:38] <mewshi> I'm having trouble with my network connection; when I right click the networkmanager applet icon, and go to edit connections, then to 'wireless' , then the network I want to configure, I try to set it as the "System Setting" by checking the box, then I click "Ok" then I go back in and the box has unchecked itself!  What do I do?
[21:38] <erUSUL> wasabi: a fokbomb is easily avoided with a nprocs hardlimit in /etc/security/limits.conf
[21:38] <sinuc> or rather is more bsd alike than like
[21:39] <DasEi> !paste | James296
[21:39] <gusto5> reconn, intrepid if i may inquire?
[21:39] <erUSUL> Buster_Hymen: correct or use the update manager
[21:39] <Buster_Hymen> erUSUL:  okay. looks like it worked.  thanks again!
[21:39] <wasabi> erUSUL: Yeah, I bet there's a lot of various tweaks. I'm wondering about something that does them all 'right' and leaves me with a useful system still. :0
[21:39] <DasEi> James296: sudo  fdisk -l                       , paste the out from cmd to paste-link
[21:39] <erUSUL> Buster_Hymen: no problem
[21:39] <Mahoodi> i used unetbootin to make a bootable usb stick for eeebuntu installation on my eee pc, i checked if all the files are on the usb that are need for the installation and they are... problem is i want it be recognised at boot time, and its not

[21:40] <unperson> How do I get Ubuntu to boot to multiuser but text only?  On old-style unix, you could do this by going to runlevel 3, but it seems that on Ubuntu there's all runlevels above 1 are equivalent.
[21:40] <unperson> (well, except 6 :)  )
[21:40] <wasabi> erUSUL: Anyway to just penalize the app doing the forking, and slow it down in a way that makes the rest of the system usable?
[21:40] <teratoma> unperson: disable gdm
[21:40] <zsquareplusc> Mahoodi: press ESC when EEEpc is booting. you shoudl be able to select the USB drive to boot from
[21:40] <mewshi> I'm having trouble with my network connection; when I right click the networkmanager applet icon, and go to edit connections, then to 'wireless' , then the network I want to configure, I try to set it as the "System Setting" by checking the box, then I click "Ok" then I go back in and the box has unchecked itself!

[21:41] <Mahoodi> thanks
[21:41] <James296> ok I got it DasEi
[21:41] <DasEi> James296: url ?
[21:41] <unperson> teratoma, Right. So, short of removing gdm, how do I set it not to start on boot?
[21:41] <gusto5> reconn, can you pastebin your 'gnome-power-bugreport.sh for me?
[21:41] <James296> http://pastebin.com/f57649347
[21:41] <teratoma> unperson: 'disable' it, you don't have to remove it
[21:41] <Garnol9155> Hi people. How can i add my keyboard media buttons to the shortcuts manager?
[21:41] <unperson> teratoma, I know in principle I should be able to edit some rc scripts, but is there a better way?
[21:42] <Freeaqingme> I'm looking for some app to edit layered png files. Is there anything out there that is able to do so except for Adobe Fireworks?
[21:42] <Garnol9155> Linux does not seem to recognize them :(
[21:42] <erUSUL> wasabi: no it just caps the number of processes an user can spawn... 2048 is enough for a desktop user but it does not bring a machine to its knees
[21:42] <histo> Okay I need to fix my resolution problems Currently max resolution is 1024x768. I have nvidia drivers installed and working and my monitor supports 1920x1200 Thats what I want ot run.
[21:42] <Buster_Hymen> I'm drawing a blank... what's the command to run a .sh script?

[21:42] <teratoma> unperson: what do you want?  magic faerie dust?  just turn off gdm.  install the package sysv-rc

[21:43] <n8tuser> mewshi -> you have 8.10 installed?
[21:43] <James296> it says its clean
[21:43] <mewshi> No one can help me?
[21:44] <Buster_Hymen> !patience|mewshi
[21:44] <n8tuser> DrX -> its not how it works, look into  umask
[21:44] <unperson> n8tuser, A good suggestion.  In this case it happens that the system freezes in the process of starting gdm, though, so it's a no go.
[21:44] <erUSUL> DrX: sudo chmod g+s dir/
[21:44] <DasEi> !who | James296
[21:44] <mewshi> Well, I've been waiting... -_-
[21:44] <Crewsr3> Does anyone know what a DRDY error could be, is it mean that a hard drive has failed?
[21:44] <leeping2008> Hey there, in gnome-terminal how do I exit a program that's running and go back to the shell?
[21:45] <erUSUL> Crewsr3: or the (s)ata chip or the cabling...
[21:45] <Buster_Hymen> mewshi:  we all wait for some time.  I think the greeting message states you might have to wait an hour or more.  You can always use that time to start a thread on ubuntu forums

[21:45] <Guest21388> .
[21:45] <leeping2008> DasEi, that's not what I wanted, sorry .. I wanted to leave the program running like a daemon
[21:46] <James296> DasEi: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while trying to open /dev/sdb2
[21:46] <leeping2008> Like how I can run a program and retain shell control by typing in "program &"
[21:46] <James296> Could this be a zero-length partition?
[21:46] <erUSUL> Crewsr3: ? well it can be anything on the chain
[21:46] <iaindalton> leeping2008: Ctrl-Z
[21:46] <tj83> hello all, I need a application for ubuntu that will allow me to use my phone modem to record inbound and outbound calls. anyone make a suggestion?
[21:46] <leeping2008> iaindalton, thanks!
[21:46] <iaindalton> leeping2008: I do what I can
[21:46] <DrX> n8tuser: i believe that did the trick, thanks!!
[21:46] <Crewsr3> erUSUL, Should I unplug the hard drive (it is a secondardy one)
[21:47] <DasEi>  9332        9733   ,james296, not really
[21:47] <iaindalton> leeping2008: When you want to bring that app to the fore again, type fg
[21:47] <DrX> erUSUL: sorry, thanks!
[21:47] <James296> no thats what the message says
[21:47] <erUSUL> Crewsr3: i really dunno... as i said it coulb be software bug or just a loose cable

[21:47] <leeping2008> wow, sweet :) Two and a half years of using Linux and I never thought ..
[21:47] <erUSUL> Crewsr3: maybe you can decode the exact meaning

[21:51] <edgimar> In X-chat, what do greyed out users mean (in the user-list)?
[21:51] <maxxist> histio you need to run the app with a sudo
[21:51] <kev19346247> and i need a password to get online
[21:52] <Din|BSD> edgimar: means they are away
[21:52] <histo> I need to change my resolution to 1920x1200 but I can only go to 1024x768. I have the nvidia driver installed and working. I've run nvidia-settings I've tried putting modes in xorg.conf manually but not luck.
[21:52] <James296> should I have it check sdba which is my primary Windows HDD?
[21:52] <edgimar> Din|BSD: how is this determined?
[21:52] <wos1> join #test
[21:52] <histo> Does anyone have ideas for me to try?
[21:52] <boggy_> how can i scan papers to email them? i'm using 8.10... my hp c4480 prints fine how do i get the scanner to work?
[21:52] <Melik> hey guys is anyone good with wireless networking on ubuntu, cuz my laptop randomly disconnects every 15 minutes constantly
[21:52] <Din|BSD> edgimar: by setting /away
[21:52] <maxxist> histio so did nvidia-settings detect you monitor?
[21:53] <wos1> LjL how do i test the beep sound on my name?
[21:53] <erUSUL> Crewsr3: well with the info i have i can not know what the erros are about. Can be a dying disk or a kernel bug or a loose cable as i already said
[21:53] <LjL> wos1: sigh. you ask for someone in #test to highlight you, of course. but i think i *did* mention your name just above in any case.
[21:53] <erUSUL> Crewsr3: i only know that it comes from the libata subsystem
[21:54] <drewbert> how can I tell 8.04 to upgrade to 8.1
[21:54] <Crewsr3> erUSUL, He was able get the login promt and it said that the home drive is not here
[21:54] <LjL> !upgrade > drewbert    (drewbert, see the private message from ubottu)
[21:54] <Din|BSD> 8.10*
[21:54] <DasEi> James296: choose right device in gparted (upper right corner of gui)
[21:54] <wos1> wos_
[21:54] <keyhack> what is the name of p7zip-full in Ubuntu 7.10? I can't seem to install it with the Live CD
[21:54] <gusto5> drewbert, easy way is to update with update manger
[21:54] <maxxist> drewbert update-manager -d
[21:54] <wos1> wos1
[21:54] <edgimar> ok, not automatically.  seems like there's a plugin to do automatic away, but it's not directly a part of xchat-gnome.
[21:54] <histo> I figured it out the Depth setting was the issue
[21:54] <erUSUL> drewbert: System<Admin>software sources | updates tab
[21:54] <binarymutant> how do I get wireless link quality from the command line?
[21:54] <DasEi> James296: looks like a faulty drive for now
[21:54] <edgimar> Din|BSD: ^^
[21:54] <James296> I did, now what
[21:54] <erUSUL> binarymutant: iwconfig
[21:55] <Din|BSD> edgimar: most chan ops will have a cow if you do auto aways especially the ones that are verbose.
[21:55] <drewbert> thanks all, got it
[21:55] <joaopinto> after installing the latest updates and rebooting I Can only ear noise, any hints ?
[21:55] <binarymutant> erUSUL: ty
[21:55] <n8tuser> binarydigit -> see if iwlist would you give you that
[21:56] <edgimar> Din|BSD: ok, but I don't see an option to manually make oneself 'away' -- is it an irc command?
[21:56] <Din|BSD> edgimar: this is off topic so you wanna join me in #ubuntu-offtopic ?  I'm pretty good with xchat :)
[21:56] <James296> oh ok Im using gparted to check for and fix errors on the hdd
[21:56] <keyhack> "E: Package p7zip-full has no installation candidate"
[21:57] <LjL> !info p7zip-full | keyhack
[21:57] <Crewsr3> erUSUL, thanks for your help
[21:57] <iaindalton> keyhack: apt-cache search 7zip
[21:57] <binarymutant> if I   iwconfig | grep "Link Quality"     why would an empty low be included in the output?
[21:57] <keyhack> iaindalton: nothing shows up when I do that
[21:57] <binarymutant> s/low/lo
[21:58] <LjL> keyhack: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[21:58] <iaindalton> maybe you need to update your sources?
[21:58] <keyhack> LjL: I'm using the 7.10 live cd
[21:58] <iaindalton> keyhack: sudo apt-get update
[21:58] <LjL> binarymutant: because that's output from stderr not stdout
[21:58] <NDle55> hello,i just installes vmware server, something went wrong with th installaton, want to remove and reinstall bit i dont know the exacht file name...
[21:58] <Melik> can anyone please help me with my wireless issue, my laptop randomly disconnects every 10 minutes or so for some weird reason ;(
[21:59] <keyhack> iaindalton: did that, still nothing
[21:59] <deringer> :P
[21:59] <binarymutant> LjL: what do you mean?
[22:00] <deringer> wireless ?
[22:00] <DasEi> james296 :?
[22:00] <Pirate_Hunter> can someone recommend a good flash app?
[22:00] <iaindalton> keyhack: is universe enabled?
[22:00] <keyhack> iaindalton: I just checked it was not, just enabled it
[22:00] <LjL> binarymutant: i meant that the "lo" line is not filtered by grep, because it's output using another buffer.
[22:00] <keyhack> iaindalton: found it, thanks
[22:01] <stealthy45> I desperately need help setting up a printer
[22:01] <JackEStorm> ok last time I ask, "E: Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (2) on libc6" ...how can I find the internal error?
[22:01] <stealthy45> It absolutely fcking refuses to work
[22:01] <stealthy45> I'm trying to access it across a network with no luck
[22:01] <stealthy45> It works just freakin' great on the Ubuntu box it's set up on
[22:01] <DasEi> stealthy45: model ?
[22:01] <stealthy45> but refuses to work over the network
[22:01] <iaindalton> stealthy45: How's it connected to the network?
[22:01] <binarymutant> LjL: is that the reason why when I do iwconfig > out  lo gets outputed to the screen?
[22:01] <stealthy45> DasEi: deskjet 895cse
[22:01] <LjL> JackEStorm: this happens when doing what, on what system?
[22:01] <stealthy45> iaindalton: printer -> ubuntu box -> wired network
[22:02] <LjL> binarymutant: yes
[22:02] <Dwade09> is there an application that lets me record phone calls?
[22:02] <Dwade09> i am in ubuntu hardy.
[22:02] <stealthy45> Using \\hostname\printername or \\hostname:631\printername tells me Access Denied
[22:02] <binarymutant> LjL: ty for the info, do you know how I can get around this?
[22:02] <iaindalton> stealthy45: Is the ubuntu box set up to share printers?
[22:02] <stealthy45> iaindalton: yes
[22:02] <stealthy45> I can see it on the windows box, just not use it
[22:02] <iaindalton> stealthy45: what happens when you go to http://hostname:631 ?
[22:03] <stealthy45> CUPS page comes up
[22:03] <LjL> !info mgetty-voice | Dwade09, this and related packages should allow that
[22:03] <Dwade09> ljl thanks
[22:03] <DasEi> stealthy45: printer is supported, go ahead with iani...
[22:03] <matreya6> I have 2 Network cards. One, a Realtek 8139 is connected to my ADSL router via a switch. the other Marvell 3Com 940C is connected to another switch. Network manager shows a cross as if I'm not connected. As soon as soon as I insert a cable into my Gbit Network card, my nameserver disappears from /etc/resolv.conf. On top of this file it says it's created by NetworkManager. How can I stop NetworkManager from deleting this line (shich it does, even if the
[22:03] <matreya6> file itself is readonly(!)
[22:04] <keyhack> I cannot for the life of me make a USB thumbstick that boots with UNetbootin or 7.10's create USB startup disk, I always get "Boot error" when trying to boot on the target PC
[22:04] <NDle55> hello just installed vmware, but something went wrong with the installation and i cant reinstall:You have a product that conflicts with VMware Server installed.  Continuing
[22:04] <LjL> matreya6, if you don't need the functionality that network manager provide, you can remove it without adverse effects
[22:04] <stealthy45> iaindalton: Cups page comes up
[22:04] <iaindalton> stealthy45: hmm; have you googled the error message?
[22:05] <NDle55> this install will first uninstall this product.Error: Unable to execute "/media/disk/Apps/VMware_Images/vmware-uninstall.pl.
[22:05] <stealthy45> iaindalton: for the last 5 hours, yes
[22:05] <Dwade09> LjL, how is it for recording phone call conversations?
[22:05] <Dwade09> it is for voicemail.
[22:05] <hotdog003> Hello! I seem to have lost my /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf file. How do I get it back? Reinstalling networkmanager and dpkg-reconfigure don't help.
[22:05] <matreya6> LjL, some of the features of network manager are nice, but how do I get this program to behave and detect my connections as it should?
[22:05] <deringer> backup?
[22:05] <georgeasott_1> ah, weird problem here.  hd just gotten my xorg.conf to work with my aiptek driver tablett when i realized my keyboard wasnt working right anymore.  i have to hold a key for a second and then i get two of whatever i was pressing. tried other keyboard same result.  tried switcing to backup xorg file and still same.  reconfigured xorg all over and still there. trid different usb still same. any ideas?
[22:05] <LjL> matreya6: i don't know.
[22:06] <hotdog003> deringer: You're right, but I only keep backups of my home folder.
[22:06] <deringer> ;)
[22:06] <hotdog003> Does anyone have a sample they can pastebin or something?
[22:06] <n8tuser> stealthy45 -> when you are on printer configurations, what is the Policies checked?
[22:06] <stealthy45> n8tuser: all three ofthem
[22:06] <binarymutant> how can I grep stdout ?
[22:06] <deringer> every system file will have backup
[22:06] <stealthy45> at this point I'd be wiling to re-start sharing the printer if i had a WELL KNOWN WORKING guide to follow
[22:06] <iaindalton> stealthy45: I'm no SMB expert; I just thought it might be something simple.  Sorry; I can't help.
[22:06] <stealthy45> iaindalton: no problem
[22:06] <n8tuser> stealthy45 -> access control ?
[22:06] <LjL> binarymutant: that's what you grep by default.
[22:07] <georgeasott_1> but.. keyboard works fine on login screen and ttys
[22:07] <hotdog003> binarymutant: You can't grep stdout, you can only grep stdin. Do "echo stuff | grep whattolookfor"
[22:07] <raymond> hi
[22:07] <Pirate_Hunter> did ubuntu have reminder system with the calendar function or do I need to add that separately?
[22:07] <matreya6> LjL, do you know if there is a builtin ncurses interface to set network settings? The one included in Slackware for instance was especially nice...
[22:07] <raymond> hi
[22:07] <gradin> so to explain it best /dev/sda1 is mounted on /; /dev/sdc is mounted on /storage/storage2 according to mtab and fstab
[22:07] <binarymutant> thanks hotdog003
[22:07] <gradin> yet in /storage/storage2 there is a directory that displays 4.4 GB free space, which is the amount of space free in /dev/sda1
[22:07] <gradin> but it isn't mounted anyway i can see, no symlink, no fstab, mtab... no anything i'm freaking confused anybody got any ideas?
[22:07] <stealthy45> n8tuser: Access control? Where?
[22:07] <n8tuser> stealthy45 -> access control ?   on another tab
[22:08] <LjL> matreya6: no i don't, i just configure stuff from /etc/network/interfaces
[22:08] <Snowyt> does anyone know how to use Wine
[22:08] <hotdog003> deringer: Ah. Eh. What if I did "rm -rf /etc/NetworkManager" (note to everyone else: Do NOT run that command!) in an effort to get it working again, and what if sudo aptitude reinstall network-manager didn't bring that file back?
[22:08] <stealthy45> n8tuser: it's set to allow everyone
[22:08] <KleRoi> hello, just installed ubuntu 8.10, can someone give me the commands to install the libraries to read files like .mp3, .wma, .avi? thanks :D
[22:08] <LjL> Dwade09: have you checked the "vm" manpage? that sounds to me like it would record phonecalls if used appropriately.
[22:08] <DasEi> Snowyt: basics, yes, further, see:
[22:08] <DasEi> !wine
[22:08] <LjL> !codecs > KleRoi    (KleRoi, see the private message from ubottu)
[22:08] <KleRoi> thanks LjL
[22:08] <jimmysparkle> Hi all, just upgraded desktop to ibex but for some reason my apache2 virtual hosts aren't being picked up? all my domains are just calling the default virtual host... any ideas? I've tried checking the virtual hosts are enabled and they are....
[22:09] <matreya6> LjL, well, in that case I'll remove network manger altogether
[22:09] <Dwade09> LjL no not yet as, i am at work. i will when i get home. thank you LjL
[22:09] <n8tuser> stealthy45 -> what protocol do you have set in your client to print?
[22:09] <LjL> matreya6: the fact that i don't know doesn't mean it's not there and it can't be done
[22:09] <matreya6> LjL, thanks for the help!
[22:09] <baegle> So, a while ago, I mucked with pulse and audio configurations and packages in order to get sound working. I have no idea what I did. No, I'm experiencing some issues with sound, and I'd like to go back to a clean slate. What is the proper way of going back to the original configuration and packages regarding sound?
[22:09] <keyhack> how can I re-format a USB thumbdrive? I think it has the wrong format and that is why I'm getting "Boot error"
[22:09] <Garnol9155> how can i add mouseklick combinations to the keyboard shortcuts manager?
[22:10] <AzizLight> how can I reset bash history and make the changes take effect on the current window/tab? I tried >~/.bash_history && reset but the history is reset only when I open a new tab/window ...
[22:10] <DasEi> KleRoi: did you get by with the ntfs ?
[22:10] <gradin> so anybody know any other tricks to trackign down wtf happened with my filesystem?
[22:10] <georgeasott_1> keyhack ~ gparted can do that for you
[22:10] <matreya6> LjL, I understand, but it is rather hard to get some decent docs on NetworkManager
[22:10] <hotdog003> beagle: Try sudo aptitude reinstall pulseaudio; sudo aptitude reinstall alsa-utils; sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop; dpkg-reconfigure pulseaudio; dpkg-reconfigure alsa-utils
[22:10] <DasEi> gradin: other then what ?
[22:10] <LjL> matreya6: i understand, as well.
[22:10] <hotdog003> er- a sudo comes before dpkg-reconfigure
[22:10] <keyhack> georgeasott_1: do you know what filesystem format the USB thumbdrive needs to be for a BIOS to boot it?
[22:10] <jimmysparkle> can anyone help me ^_^
[22:10] <hotdog003> Keyhack: It doesn't matter. Just make sure it has a partition table and make sure the partition is bootable.
[22:10] <n8tuser> keyhack -> fat32
[22:10] <CSWookie_> It appears that the current gcc for ubuntu is 4.3.4.  Is there a place where I can get a deb for 4.3.2?
[22:11] <blendroid> If I want to configure a static IP, can I use a GUI interface like the network manager or do I have to use the terminal?
[22:11] <keyhack> hotdog003: it does matter, I've tried 2 different applications to make a USB key to boot, and have had no luck so far
[22:11] <gradin> DasEi: mount -ls; cat /etc/fstab; cat/etc/mtab; ls -al
[22:11] <LjL> matreya6: some bits and pieces of information are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager
[22:11] <CSWookie_> Failing that, a source deb?
[22:11] <DasEi> gradin: the issue ?
[22:11] <stealthy45> n8tuser: I'm nto sure where to fin that
[22:11] <jimmysparkle> Hi all, just upgraded desktop to ibex but for some reason my apache2 virtual hosts aren't being picked up? all my domains are just calling the default virtual host... any ideas? I've tried checking the virtual hosts are enabled and they are....
[22:11] <keyhack> n8tuser: it current is fat16
[22:12] <baegle> hotdog003: how did you manage to get that to me so quickly?
[22:12] <hotdog003> keyhack: Try reformatting it with gparted and trying again. If in doubt, use fat16.
[22:12] <iaindalton> blendroid: there's an option to configure static IP in the network manager; couldn't you answer that by checking?
[22:12] <keyhack> yeah, it is already FAT16 right now, and I get "Boot error" when trying to boot it
[22:12] <hotdog003> beagle: Pure speculation. *grin*
[22:12] <CSWookie_> s/current/hardy/
[22:12] <MrProper_> is it just me or is ubuntus 8.10 sound setup a nightmare
[22:12] <n8tuser> keyhack -> use fat32
[22:12] <jimmysparkle> can anyone help with apache? :(
[22:12] <hotdog003> MrProper: Sure, it's a little flakey, but it's not very bad when you set it up correctly. I'm sure that beagle would agree with you.
[22:13] <gradin> DasEi: i've got a weird drive mounting thing, a subdir on /storage/storage2 is mounting a directory on /dev/sda1 and i can't figure out how
[22:13] <keyhack> n8tuser: yeah, trying that now
[22:13] <matreya6> LjL, thanks for the link!
[22:13] <Chaostos> guys I got ubuntu 8.10...installed different scripts\programs\settings ...if Ill need to reinstall Ubuntu ..How to Save all what I have scripted installed...??? is it possible to save some settings somewhere.. ?
[22:13] <hotdog003> keyhack: Just "boot error" ?
[22:13] <blendroid> iaindalton: I've been trying to use the network manager, but it seems to be read-only and I can't figure out how to go into admin mode with it, or even edit anything
[22:13] <stealthy45> n8tuser: where would I find the protocol set to be used?
[22:13] <DasEi> MrProper_: unless it a x-fi, patience is most you need
[22:14] <keyhack> hotdog003: yeah, just "Boot error"
[22:14] <DasEi> gradin: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[22:14] <gradin> DasEi: (/dev/sdc is mounted on /storage/storage2
[22:14] <n8tuser> stealthy45 -> 1st maybe look into  /etc/cups/cuspd.conf  to see if anything glaring that is stopping your client from connecting
[22:14] <gradin> )
[22:14] <Garnol9155> how can i add mouseklick combinations to the keyboard shortcuts manager?
[22:14] <DasEi> gradin: pastebinit /etc/fstab
[22:14] <iaindalton> blendroid: Ah, that makes sense.  try 'man interfaces'
[22:14] <MrProper_> DasEi, the pulse audio system should be thrown in the bin until its workable
[22:14] <hotdog003> keyhack: If the partition is marked as bootable and the syslinux bootloader is installed, there's no reason for it to not work.
[22:14] <CSWookie_> Anyone?
[22:14] <blendroid> iaindalton: ok
[22:15] <DasEi> gradin: sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit
[22:15] <jimmysparkle> Hi all, just upgraded desktop to ibex but for some reason my apache2 virtual hosts aren't being picked up? all my domains are just calling the default virtual host... any ideas? I've tried checking the virtual hosts are enabled and they are....
[22:15] <hotdog003> MrProper: It's workable for lots of people. What's giving you trouble?
[22:15] <DasEi> gradin: sudo mount -a
[22:15] <DasEi> gradin: mount | pastebinit
[22:15] <ironfoot_495> Hi I've lost sound on flash 10 and I can't seem to fix it no matter what I try on google???
[22:15] <DasEi> gradin: 3 urls ?
[22:15] <keyhack> hotdog003: got it! thanks! fat32 did the trick
[22:15] <hotdog003> Yay!
[22:15] <DasEi> MrProper_: which card ? why no alsa ?
[22:16] <ironfoot_495> Can someone be so kind as to help me fix this
[22:16] <n8tuser> keyhack -> you forgot me? hehe
[22:16] <ironfoot_495> ]???
[22:16] <keyhack> n8tuser: haha, I was scrolling through the output to find your name! thanks! i've spent an hour on this already, thanks so much
[22:16] <histo> Okay one more question I have an app that I need to run as sudo that I want to start on boot. How should I go about doing this?
[22:16] <Garnol9155> how can i add mouseklick combinations to the keyboard shortcuts manager?
[22:16] <jimmysparkle> holllllaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just upgraded desktop to ibex but for some reason my apache2 virtual hosts aren't being picked up? all my domains are just calling the default virtual host... any ideas? I've tried checking the virtual hosts are enabled and they are....
[22:16] <matreya6> LjL, theses pages don't tell me what I want to know. NM is a pain to me, so it will be removed, removing the buggy behaviour and allowing me to set my config and routes manually the way I want them to be. :-)
[22:16] <jimmysparkle> Please help!
[22:16] <MrProper_> DasEi, nvidia hdm, its the fact that something dies with pulse and also kills alsa, so the only way to fix sound without rebooting is: alsa force-reload
[22:16] <jimmysparkle> anyone?!
[22:16] <n8tuser> keyhack just curious did you have to fiddle with initrd  on it?
[22:17] <MrProper_> jimmysparkle, got a pastie of your sites enabled conf?
[22:17] <DasEi> MrProper_: hdm ??? hda ?!
[22:17] <keyhack> n8tuser: just gparted, fat32, re-ran unetbootin
[22:17] <l_r> Question for experts: are changes persistent on the diks when installing the ubuntu system from within a LiveUSB Ubuntu itself?
[22:17] <jimmysparkle> jimmy@sakura:/etc/apache2/sites-enabled$ ls
[22:17] <jimmysparkle> 000-default  bemischievous  dating  lookup  onescene  sparkleinteractive
[22:17] <n8tuser> keyhack -> oh okay, i thought you digged depper..thanks..
[22:17] <georgeasott_1> how bout this, anybody know how i can disable startup items from tty? its the only place my keyboard works.  well there and failsafe..
[22:17] <ironfoot_495> MrProper_ Thanks I'll try it
[22:17] <NH|Computer|Geek> 8.10 is a mess
[22:17] <gradin> DasEi: http://pastebin.com/f4c53aa1f http://pastebin.com/f4604ea7c
[22:17] <jimmysparkle> that what ya mean MrProper_?
[22:17] <hotdog003> l_r: Installing FROM a live system? Sure. It's just like a live CD, except on a USB drive.
[22:18] <Din|BSD> lol
[22:18] <gradin> DasEi: http://pastebin.com/f50cca0ef
[22:18] <MrProper_> jimmysparkle, go to http://pastie.org/ and put the contents of those files in there
[22:18] <NH|Computer|Geek> seriously it is a disaster, they released it too soon, just like vista
[22:19] <Din|BSD> i kinda have to agree
[22:19] <l_r> hotdog003, so..if i change the system settings  from the running liveusb ubuntu, they will be PERSISTEN after the installation?
[22:19] <stealthy45> n8tuser: I don't seeanything
[22:19] <hotdog003> Could anyone pastebin a copy of /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf ? I've lost mine and I can't get it back.
[22:19] <JackEStorm> LjL: apt-get dist-upgrade
[22:19] <MrProper_> l_r, from memory if you install pacakges in the live cd THEN install it will add those packages to your installed system
[22:19] <gradin> l_r: no
[22:19] <jimmysparkle> MrProper_: they were working 30 minutes ago before i updated to ibex!!! here is the one im trying to get working: http://pastie.org/320053
[22:20] <hotdog003> l_r: Oh, I get what you're saying. If you change some settings and install it to the hard disk, then they will not keep. But if you add packages, they will get copied over.
[22:20] <ironfoot_495> MrProper_ I get an error message saying that .gvf is lsof: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon file system /home/carter/.gvfs
[22:20] <ironfoot_495>       Output information may be incomplete.
[22:20] <georgeasott_1> i dont recall the update being manditory.
[22:20] <MrProper_> jimmysparkle: what about the rest of them thats only one
[22:20] <n8tuser> stealthy45 -> paste your  cupsd.conf  and lets see if anything i can spot
[22:20] <iaindalton> Does anyone understand the errors compiling the source? http://pastebin.ca/1263043
[22:20] <MrProper_> ironfoot_495, sorry i dont know what your referencing?
[22:21] <jimmysparkle> MrProper_:  thats the only one i want to get working - the others are exactly the same just different paths
[22:21] <jimmysparkle> bar the Default one of course
[22:21] <gradin> iaindalton: sudo
[22:22] <MrProper_> jimmacdonald, well if all domains are going to one default one then i need to see that one
[22:22] <DasEi> gradin: can't see sth wrong there, what subdir mounts were ?
[22:22] <iaindalton> gradin: why would make need sudo?
[22:22] <ironfoot_495>  MrProper_: I have a problem with audio on flash and no matter what I've tried I can't seem to get the sound to work??
[22:22] <l_r> i would like to install a custom  liveusb system while it's running from within it. that is, you customize the system while using it and then install the exact copy
[22:22] <hotdog003> iaindalton: You shouldn't need sudo for make.
[22:22] <bldninja> is there any command for getting MAC-address of an mobile bluetooth unit connected to my ubuntu PC?
[22:22] <hotdog003> Make install maybe, but not for make.
[22:22] <MrProper_> ironfoot_495, has rebooting fixed it?
[22:22] <sgraham> whats that mac like quicklaunch bar called?
[22:22] <hotdog003> Seems like an error in the source code itself.
[22:22] <NH|Computer|Geek> lol
[22:22] <keyhack> I've set RAID0 for two SATA drives in my BIOS, do I need to do anything special for Ubuntu to pick that up? Right now it seems that the net installer thinks they are two separate drives, it is not picking up the RAID0
[22:22] <georgeasott_1> dock
[22:22] <hotdog003> sgraham: It's called Gnome-Do
[22:22] <Pirate_Hunter> can someone suggest a good app that allows designing using flash?
[22:22] <alexei> hello, I get gnome network manager started on KDE login, how do I disable that? Any Idea?
[22:22] <MrProper_> keyhack, ewww fakeraid
[22:22] <mavsman4457> sgraham, avant-window-navigator
[22:23] <gradin> DasEi: what do you mean
[22:23] <keyhack> MrProper_: hah, I know, this is simply a media PC
[22:23] <hotdog003> OH, right, not grome-do. It's called avant-window-navigator
[22:23] <MrProper_> keyhack, if you want to use the bios fake raid, just install on the first disk and leave the 2nd one alone
[22:23] <ironfoot_495> MrProper_: no
[22:23] <DasEi> MrProper_: hdm ??? hda ?! (my nvidia onboard sound worked with alsa, firmware loaders, ibex
[22:23] <hotdog003> gnome-do is like quicksilver
[22:23] <jimmysparkle> MrProper_: this is the default one: http://pastie.org/320055
[22:23] <mavsman4457> Is there a way to make it so the backspace key makes firefox go to the previous page rather than just alt and left?
[22:23] <georgeasott_1> sgraham ~ i use avant-window-navigator. i like
[22:23] <bastid_raZor> ironfoot_495; i get that same error ever since i updated to 8.04.1 .. i've yet to see what it hinders when compiling things. i ignore it
[22:23] <DasEi> gradin: I don't get your prob, looks all normal
[22:24] <sgraham> is there a package for it or like a source entry for it?
[22:24] <l_r> how do the ubuntu team personalize the Ubuntu system on each new release if they cannot visually see the changes or test them while running? i know there are scripts to personalize ISOs , but it's a pain not to see the results
[22:24] <Try_Hard_Go_Pro> can anyone help me i turn the visual effects on and my close/minimize buttons disappeared
[22:24] <mobo> hi all, has anyone got ubuntu working with a dell studio 15 laptop? I'm having problems with the wireless?
[22:24] <ironfoot_495> bastid_raZor: but what about getting the audio back?
[22:24] <MrProper_> jimmysparkle, if you disable that site does all work as intended
[22:24] <keyhack> MrProper_: I just wanted one logical drive
[22:24] <panfist> i am having an issue with accented characters in filenames on a cifs mount. i have tried mounting them as UTF8, iso8859-1, codepage 437, and 850, and i still cant get them to display correctly in the terminal. any other charsets or codepages i can try?
[22:24] <gradin> DasEi: so in /storage/storage2 there is a directory called backup..
[22:24] <[TiZ]> I'm changing my panel layout from a single expanded panel on the bottom to a non-expanded panel on top + avant-window-navigator.  I'd like to do either of these two things: Make gnome-panel hide the same way that awn does, or change the size that windows maximize to. Can anyone help out?
[22:24] <MrProper_> keyhack, use softraid
[22:24] <gradin> in backup there are a bunch of files
[22:24] <bastid_raZor> ironfoot_495; that warning has nothing to do with audio.
[22:24] <keyhack> MrProper_: what is that?
[22:24] <MrProper_> ironfoot_495, what version of flash?
[22:24] <MrProper_> keyhack, linux software raid
[22:24] <gradin> oh wait..
[22:24] <ironfoot_495> MrProper_: 10
[22:25] <gradin> nvm i rember now
[22:25] <gradin> multiple backup diectories
[22:25] <keyhack> MrProper_: so I should go into the BIOS, turn off RAID, enable SATA, then just use the linux installer to make it?
[22:25] <jimmysparkle> ahhh MrProper_ I get forbidden if i disable the default site....
[22:25] <MrProper_> keyhack, if you havent installed yet the ibex installer should allow you to create software raid
[22:25] <teadict> who knows why Iceweasel (or Firefox) won't start on Fluxbox after setting up gtk and Tango icons?
[22:25] <sgraham> i found it thanks guys
[22:25] <ironfoot_495> MrProper_: even when I had 9 there was problems
[22:25] <jimmysparkle> what should i set the folder's permission to be to allow apache to access?
[22:25] <MrProper_> keyhack, yes you should disable the bios raid if your going to do software raid
[22:25] <georgeasott_1> try_hard_go_pro souns like you window decorations are gone. if you have emerald or are trying to use it.. alt ~f2 and type emrald --replace
[22:26] <DasEi> gradin: so they seem to be on sdc, too- subdirs of third hd
[22:26] <georgeasott_1> emerald*
[22:26] <MrProper_> ironfoot_495, not sure then, flash is a pile of dog crap for sound in linux (they still use the ESD daemon from memory)
[22:26] <n8tuser> jimmysparkle -> are you following any tutorials at all? please do if you are not doing it yet
[22:26] <edson> hello guys
[22:26] <MrProper_> jimmysparkle, silly question but have you enabled the other sites?
[22:26] <jimmysparkle> im not following any bloody tutorials....
[22:27] <l_r> Question: i absolutely need to custom a liveusb system in a "visual" way..so that i can see the changes in realtime, while preserving the possibility to install this customization from within the running system
[22:27] <MrProper_> jimmysparkle, and forbidden doesnt mean that the apache conf isnt working
[22:27] <DasEi> gradin: if you mount a hd to a directory, you'll find it's subfolders in the mount-dir
[22:27] <ironfoot_495> MrProper_: Yeah I seem to forming the same Idea but is there an alternative?
[22:27] <jimmysparkle> i've just updated to ibex and now my apache is getting forbidden when trying to access my workspace paths..
[22:27] <edson> somebody use  Conexant CX20549 (Venice) for ubuntu 8.10?
[22:27] <MrProper_> ironfoot_495, dont use flash =(
[22:27] <gradin> DasEi: naw i figured it out, i've got multiple dirs named backup and i thought it was mounting sda1's dir when i was looking at the samba shares but i was looking at a different backup from sda1 which is why the disk space was wrong
[22:27] <ironfoot_495> ok what then
[22:27] <jimmysparkle> i've just set my path /tink/dev/dating to a+rw but sitll getting forbidden
[22:27] <DasEi> gradin: so clear now ?
[22:28] <teadict> halp me! oh plz! I'm so n0oB!
[22:28] <MrProper_> ironfoot_495, i would completely remove flash then re add....OR the old trick in firefox was to make it use OSS for audio
[22:28] <teadict> who knows why Iceweasel (or Firefox) won't start on Fluxbox after setting up gtk and Tango icons?
[22:28] <gradin> DasEi: yeps
[22:28] <gradin> DasEi: tnx
[22:28] <jimmysparkle> i didn't see forbidden before MrProper_ it's only now i've disabled the default virtual host that i get this message
[22:28] <Try_Hard_Go_Pro> georgeasott_1: i'm not using emerlad
[22:28] <DasEi> gradin:nice, np
[22:28] <hotdog003> l_r: I don't know if that's possible. You might have to build your own Live USB drive.
[22:28] <ironfoot_495> MrProper_: ok
[22:28] <hotdog003> USB image.*
[22:28] <MrProper_> jimmysparkle, chown -R www-data: /path/to/www/site
[22:28] <Try_Hard_Go_Pro> georgeasott_1: maybe the problem is in depth mode
[22:28] <edson> somebody use  Conexant CX20549 (Venice) for ubuntu 8.10?
[22:28] <Wrecker_> hello all
[22:29] <MrProper_> jimmysparkle, thats because your default one is grabbing all port 80 connections as you have no servername set
[22:29] <georgeasott_1> Try_Hard_Go_Pro what window decorator are you trying to use?
[22:29] <teadict> woo, pcmanfm rocks
[22:29] <DasEi> MrProper_: paste the out from : lspci
[22:29] <CubicleMoshPit> brb
[22:29] <hotdog003> Could someone pastebin their /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf file? Mine doesn't exist and I need an example to work from. Thanks.
[22:29] <teadict> so... no matter what I say, you all ignore me, ok.. but people over #ubuntu-offtopic says you are all morons
[22:29] <teadict> you didn't hear it from ;)
[22:29] <hotdog003> teadict: Lol!
[22:29] <sgraham> ya that works pretty good to
[22:30] <MrProper_> DasEi, no need i was more bitching about the issue rather than looking for help cheers

[22:30] <MrProper_> then goto the domain /index1.html
[22:30] <DasEi> Omar87: which ubuntu ?
[22:31] <hotdog003> Omar87: The integrated hardware drivers tool works very nicely in Intrepid.
[22:31] <bastid_raZor> Omar87; enable the drivers in the restricted manager. System>Administraion> restricted drivers

[22:31] <Omoikane__> Does anyone know how to install the 64 bit adobe flash player for ubuntu?
[22:31] <jimmysparkle> what did that do MrProper_?
[22:31] <MrProper_> jimmysparkle, did i say .php? i said html
[22:31] <DasEi> !nvidia | Omar87
[22:31] <jimmysparkle> i don't have that file?
[22:31] <DasEi> Omar87: see above infos (hotdo...)
[22:32] <MrProper_> jimmysparkle, touch updates the time stamp on a file and also creates a blank file if it does not exist
[22:32] <jimmysparkle> done
[22:32] <Pirate_Hunter> do i have to go back to windows to be able to design a flash interface on a webpage or is there an actual linux app i can use?

[22:32] <Dante123> hi all, I am running the linux client for a program called Firstclass.  Everything works fine, but when I go to print from the application....no printer shows up  here is a screen shot:  http://tinypic.com/usermedia.php?uo=8a0tzok%2B9l6yIyL%2F%2FuY9yA%3D%3D                                                                       Any ideas how to fix this?
[22:32] <jimmysparkle> still not getting antthing MrProper_
[22:33] <jimmysparkle> still forbidden
[22:33] <MrProper_> jimmysparkle, can you give me the link privately
[22:33] <jimmysparkle> I've updated my work desktop and didn't get this issue... have same setup at work
[22:33] <Dante123> I think it is supposed to use default printer....whihc is installed and working but doesn't show up here.  Could it be that this particular app wants info from KDE and is not as Gnome friendly?
[22:34] <afancy> Hi, now i am using Konsole terminal. How can I set the short-cut for right-click mouse to copy text,and click to paste text, which is like putty. ANYBODY KNOWS? Thanks
[22:35] <dr_willis> afancy,  there is putty for linux.. if you really want that format for cut/pasteing.. OR ya could do 'select' then 'middle click'
[22:35] <reconn> I use gPodder for catching my podcasts and playing them with Rhythmbox, which crashes very often (it just dissapears in between a podcast)
[22:35] <iaindalton> Dante123: does 'sudo less /etc/cups/printers.conf' mention your printer?
[22:35] <Omar87> DasEi: Can he use 8.04 drivers for 8.10?
[22:36] <Dante123>  iaindalton hang on I will check
[22:36] <afancy> dr_willis: is there a putty for Linux?
[22:36] <dr_willis> !info putty
[22:36] <dr_willis> afancy,  aparently so.. I dont really know why you would want to use it over a normal terminal
[22:37] <DasEi> Omar87: I'm not particulary sure for the 7300, but 8.10 /xorg 7.4 prop. drivers of nvidia are better supported, but support of old xorg was better
[22:37] <Dante123> iaindalton yes it does have my printer there
[22:37] <afancy> dr_willis: i get used to the putty format. it is very nice
[22:37] <afancy> i like right click to copy
[22:38] <iaindalton> Dante123: then it shouldn't matter whether the app is Gnome or KDE, but I'm not sure why it's not showing up
[22:38] <DasEi> Omar87: the ubuntu-ones work well with nvidia, not sure about the prop on xorg 7.4,  some do, others not
[22:38] <Dante123> I have searched website of company.....but lets just say all they really seem to support is Windows....although they do have this linux client.
[22:39] <iaindalton> Does anyone understand the errors compiling the source? http://pastebin.ca/1263043
[22:39] <carpii> is there a channel specifically for wine questions?
[22:39] <Dante123> iaindalton I was thinking maybe there is a configuration file?????
[22:39] <n8tuser> carpii -> #winehq
[22:39] <mavsman4457> Is there a  way to make it so pressing backspace while i'm in firefox will take me to the previous page?  Right now I have to hit alt+left to do that
[22:39] <Sagaci> hi, is this the place to get help on installing ubuntu
[22:39] <iaindalton> Dante123: I just pointed you to it.
