[10:05] <Laney> hey I was just looking at the buildd images published on https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/buildd/releases/ (specifically the 20.04 one). The manifest says it has cloud-init but it doesn't actually seem to be there in the rootfs, so I don't seem to be able to pass vendor-data to new buildd instances. In fact the images look to have been minimised somehow compared to the manifest alongside, is that right?
[10:05] <Laney> I'm assuming you are using these ...
[10:05] <Laney> and feel free to redirect me to CPC :-)
[10:11] <Laney> the real thing I wanted to do was get snapcraft to pass vendor-data to set a custom archive mirror if given on the commandline, and it's also using these images
[10:12] <tomwardill> errr, I'd have to defer to cjwatson at least there :)
[10:14] <cjwatson> Laney: Yeah, redirecting you to CPC :)
[10:14] <cjwatson> We don't want cloud-init for the chroots and lxd images, but I'd have no problem with it being there for VMs used by snapcraft
[10:15] <Laney> mmm
[10:38] <Laney> ok, the answer for those interested is - those manifests are buggy and that bug is already in the progress of being fixed. the contents of the tarballs and images is correct
[10:39] <cjwatson> Good good
[10:40] <Laney> so my idea of using cloud-init there appears to be a non-starter
[10:40]  * Laney moans
[13:03] <rbasak> Given that I have permission to accept from the Focal proposed queue, if I do a pocket copy from a PPA into the Focal proposed queue, will it get held in Unapproved? I'd like that to "stage" it so as not to interfere with the point release.
[13:04] <cjwatson> rbasak: Yes, unless you use the --auto-approve flag to copy-package (so don't do that)
[13:04] <rbasak> Perfect answer. Thanks :)


[03:38] <jtv> This is annoying.  I'm trying to Q/A my uec2roottar rewrite, but something else is broken.
[03:38] <jtv> Could not find kernel image: amd64/generic/trusty/release/boot-kernel
[03:39] <jtv> I think it's an architecture mismatch: i386/amd64
[03:41] <jtv> Silly of me.  Can't set a node's architecture with default enlistment.
[07:32] <jtv> rvba: might not be completely crazy to start a DownloadProgressHandler.
[07:32] <rvba> jtv: that's what I thought.  The thing is that the documentation for this API method is so detailed that it drives people to try and use that method :)
[07:32] <jtv> On the other hand, the design notes had to go _somewhere_.  :)
[07:33] <rvba> heh
[07:33] <jtv> If we just provide a GET to download progress, that wouldn't be very user-friendly but at least API users could get stuff done.
[07:33] <rvba> Indeed.
[07:33] <jtv> And it would get the implementation ball rolling: so much easier to say how it should be _better_ than how it should _be_.  :)
[07:34] <rvba> Also, isn't the import script supposed to do the reporting (using the report_download_progress method)?
[07:34] <rvba> Wasn't that the plan?
[08:07] <rvba> jtv: something else I wanted your opinion about:  When users upgrade from Saucy, the new entries in bootresources.yaml don't have a 'label' constraint.  As a result, multiple images can be imported (for instance 'rc'/'release')… shouldn't we add a labels=['release'] constraint?  This would be better in sync with what the old config (from which we're migrating) was doing.
[08:07] <rvba> Not sure if it's worth a bug/fixing.  Especially considering the upcoming work on getting rid of bootresources.yaml.
[08:25] <jtv> rvba: maybe wait until we know what we really want, there?  Otherwise we keep modifying and creating this massive history of different default settings.
[08:25] <rvba> jtv: yeah.  But let's keep that problem in mind then.
[08:25] <jtv> Absolutely.
[09:23] <jtv> gmb, this one's for you: https://code.launchpad.net/~jtv/maas/test-1310844/+merge/217006
[09:27] <gmb> jtv: On it, ta
[09:31] <rvba> bigjools: can you please vote on https://code.launchpad.net/~rvb/maas/add-power-params-doc/+merge/216894 ?
[09:36] <rvba> jtv: reviewing your 'python-to-python-imports' branch now
[09:44] <rvba> allenap: I filed https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/1312085

[11:37] <allenap> rvba: Okay, I’m finishing something off right now, then I’ll do it.
[11:41] <rvba> allenap: ta, it's definitely not urgent.
[12:42] <alfs> ran into an interesting issue with usb keys and large rams.
[12:43] <alfs> The machine has 24 GB ram, and I use a 8 GB usb stick for deployment.
[12:44] <alfs> the rootfs gets about 1 GB, and the rest is allocated for swapspace - and e.g. juju bootstrap fails due to insufficient disk space.
[12:47] <alfs> is there some easy way to skip swap altogether, or do I need a customized preseed?
[12:52] <Teduardo> if using MaaS to build/maintain a distributed system, lets use for example openstack. when a new openstack release comes out, can MaaS sensibly handle the upgrade as well?
[12:53] <Teduardo> (maas/juju)
[13:07] <magicrobotmonkey> I'm getting PXE-E11 ARP Timeout when booting a potential node
[14:04] <melmoth> what is the purpose of the new "Network" menu in trusty maas ?
[14:04] <melmoth> i did not have such a one before using the ppa version of maas in precise. what am i suppose to put there ?
[14:06] <rvba> melmoth: maas.ubuntu.com/docs1.5/networks.html
[14:07] <melmoth> ok, so if all my nodes are on the same net as the nic i assigned to the  cluster controller , and dont use other network, i dont need to use this form, right ?
[14:08] <rvba> melmoth: correct
[14:08] <melmoth> good. thanks.
[14:08] <magicrobotmonkey> my node came to the maas-enlisting-node login: prompt
[14:08] <magicrobotmonkey> am I supposed to do something now?
[14:09] <rvba> magicrobotmonkey: no, this should be temporary (i.e. until your node enlists itself).  After a while your node should be powered down by MAAS.
[14:10] <magicrobotmonkey> oh there it goes
[14:10] <magicrobotmonkey> things are happening!
[14:10] <magicrobotmonkey> cool it showed up in the nodes
[14:11] <magicrobotmonkey> this is much better than scraping the switch for mac addresses
[14:19] <magicrobotmonkey> when i hit "commision node" where should I look for a log of whats going on?
[14:53] <alfs> console output
[14:54] <alfs> I find is the best. Sometimes the commissioning or running hangs, and the console is the best place to see this
[14:54] <magicrobotmonkey> yea ok
[14:55] <magicrobotmonkey> does the commisioning configure ipmi locally? because I've been unable to use ipmitool on these boxes but maas did it somehow
[15:06] <alfs> It adds it's own user
[15:06] <alfs> in the commissioning stage
[15:06] <magicrobotmonkey> ah cool
[15:06] <magicrobotmonkey> thats pretty slick
[15:13] <alfs> still no luck with partitioning. Is there some other source for the partition layout than /etc/maas/preseeds/preseed_master?
[15:14] <alfs> I know my edits are working, e.g. changing from ext4 to ext3, but partman-auto/expert_recipe and partman-auto/choose_recipe just does not bite.
[15:15] <rvba> alfs: that's weird, there is nothing that should override changes in /etc/maas/preseeds/preseed_master.
[15:35] <alfs> Hm.. I commented everything regarding partman in the preseed, and then it (as intended) stops at the partitioning stage
[15:35] <alfs> However I cannot get past iscsi config, i.e. I choose iscsi, finish, and then get thrown back to iscsi config.
[15:36] <alfs> No option to configure, and if I finish partitioning it (of course) has no root fs defined
[15:37] <alfs> perhaps due to the partman early-command not being run to define the disks.. enabling that and trying again
[16:13] <alfs> seems there was a small typo in the expert_recipe, causing it to be ignored, seems to be working now.
[16:17] <magicrobotmonkey> heh yea i think i had a problem like that at one point
[17:51] <magicrobotmonkey> do maas nodes use a proxy by default?
[17:51] <magicrobotmonkey> an apt proxy, that is
[18:11] <Isid0r0> Hey, Does anyone know how to add the new "trusty" disto to an existing MAAS installation? I see it downloaded the OS's but it isn't registering in the settings page as a deployable distro
[19:39] <alfs> magicrobotmonkey: Yes, the maas server has squid-deb-proxy installed
[19:39] <magicrobotmonkey> cool
[19:39] <magicrobotmonkey> thats super handy
[19:40] <alfs> make sure you use the official archive, otherwise you get bad mirror hangs
[19:40] <alfs> or {cc}.archive.ubuntu.com at least


[09:53] <A-Kaser> poy poy
[04:42] <screeb> hi !
[04:45] <screeb> I'l looking at UbuntuServerTasks wiki: don't you think slapd should be linked to a "Directory" task instead of "Authentication server"
[04:48] <[Grendel] > Hi, i would like to know why there is alsa support in the server version?
[04:49] <[Grendel] > who needs alsa on a server?
[05:00] <lionelp> [Grendel] : yes there is alsa support in server
[05:01] <lionelp> some people needs alsa on the server, not me, but some
[05:01] <lionelp> that was a choice
[05:02] <lionelp> screeb: Most of people who have a LDAP directory, it is for network authentication, not for Directory purposes
[05:02] <lionelp> Maybe a Directory can be added
[05:02] <lionelp> but I think it's fine to keep a "Authentication Server" item
[05:19] <maswan> We only have ldap for directory (/etc/passwd), authentication is done via kerberos
[05:19] <A-Kaser> kerberos or radius
[05:19] <A-Kaser> rarely direct to LDAP
[05:20] <A-Kaser> may be in proftpd, or libapache auth ldap
[05:23] <screeb> lionelp: thanks

[01:15] <nixternal> is the libqt4-dev in main the latest qt 4.3 release?
[01:20] <nixternal> why yes it is, so disregard previous
[01:21] <crimsun> according to ftp://ftp.trolltech.com/qt/source it is.
[01:30] <crimsun> hmm, after I finish this Qt3 version, I'll "port" it up to Qt4
[01:30] <nosrednaekim> qt3 version of what?
[01:30] <crimsun> granted I have no idea if I'll just be duplicating work
[01:30] <crimsun> nosrednaekim: LP/asoundconf-ui
[01:32] <crimsun> hmm, this implies I need to version asoundconf, too.  Hmm.  For now I'll just grab it from debian/changelog.
[01:32] <nosrednaekim> crimsun: oh cool.
[01:38] <nixternal> time to rebuild KDE 4
[01:38] <nixternal> it became a mess after the past couple of months

[01:44] <nosrednaekim> good job.
[01:44] <nixternal> never heard clasen before
[01:44] <nixternal> sus and bocas though, you hear that growing up in a latin majority neighborhood
[01:45] <nixternal> bocas usually doesn't have good meaning though when you hearit :)

[03:41] <Hobbsee> ScottK: " the manuals are not the most newbie-friendly document but assaid before will try." - if you're a newbie, and a proven idiot, you should nto be running any development release until you learn better.
[03:41] <Hobbsee> so tha tyou *dont* class as a newbie anymore.  gah.
[03:42] <ScottK> Agreed.

[06:14] <Jucato> and his error seem to be from boost
[06:14] <Hobbsee> debian has some interestnig bugs on liboost
[06:14] <Jucato> there....
[06:14] <Hobbsee> marseillai: for the love of anything good, use a pastebin.
[06:14] <Jucato> for the love of $DEITY!
[06:15] <marseillai> Hobbsee: .... i said it was an error i allready past it on pastebin but made a mistake here
[06:15] <Hobbsee> that's....i cant even understand that, so i wont say it's a crap excuse.
[06:16] <marseillai> i made a ctrl+c then type enter to send my message but the ctrl+c past all the message and not the pastebin link and enter confirm my past ....
[06:17] <Hobbsee> ahhh
[06:17] <Hobbsee> i hate that

[06:17] <marseillai> do you have an idea?

[06:17] <Jucato> not using Konvi are you? )
[06:17] <Hobbsee> check for debian bugs on liboost*
[06:22] <mhb> irssi does have that, too
[06:22] <Hobbsee> hrm, cant find it
[06:23] <Hobbsee> marseillai: you probably need libboost-thread-dev as a build-dep
[06:23] <Hobbsee> if it doesnt work, then it's boost buggery, and i dont remember
[06:29] <marseillai> Hobbsee: i allready use libboost-thread-dev as a build-dep
[06:29] <Hobbsee> then the source is still stuffed.
[06:30] <marseillai> and debian's bug don't help much

[07:30] <rouzic> Hi Riddell :)
[07:31] <rouzic> Riddell: When available amarok will be 1.4.6?
[07:31] <Hobbsee> rouzic: sometime after tehy release a tarball to the packagers list
[07:32] <Riddell> 21st it's scheduled for
[07:32] <rouzic> But be reread it was announced for today?
[07:33] <Riddell> doesn't seem to be
[07:35] <apachelogger> rouzic: tagging is today
[07:35] <apachelogger> package building starts tomorrow / later today
[07:35] <apachelogger> release is on 21th
[07:35] <apachelogger> -th +st
[07:35] <rouzic> oh, thanks apachelogger, Riddell :)
[07:37] <apachelogger> rouzic: http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Schedule:1.4
[07:41] <rouzic> :p
[08:52] <siretart> Riddell: because of wpa-gui is written in qt
[09:21] <ktulu77> hi :)
[11:35] <crimsun> any dev(s) around whose brain(s) I can pick?
[11:37] <nosrednaekim> that tickles
[11:38] <crimsun> here's a quick sketch of my dilemma (realising that I may need to refactor):  I have a Close QPushButton whose clicked() signal is slotted into a python method that writes a file.  I'd like to emit a QApplication quit() from that clicked() as well but only after the file is written. Is it feasible or even smart?
[11:38] <crimsun> something tells me it's the wrong way about it, but I'm quite new to Qt, so there may well be a much better way.
[11:39] <nosrednaekim> crimsun: maybe put the quit() at the end of the python function writing the file?
[11:40] <nosrednaekim> crimsun: thats what I do.
[11:40] <crimsun> unfortunately that will freeze the UI do the class being instantiated from another Python method
[11:40] <crimsun> s/do/due/
[11:40] <crimsun> due to, even
[11:41] <xerosis> will dolphin be default for gutsy?
[11:41] <crimsun> code's at http://codebrowse.launchpad.net/~motu/asoundconf-ui/trunk/revision/crimsun%40box-20070617092513-0qlv53350q03ep30?start_revid=crimsun%40box-20070617092513-0qlv53350q03ep30
[11:42] <nosrednaekim> crimsun: maybe inherit the other class and call it from there.
[11:46] <nosrednaekim> crimsun: could you quickly point me to the line # and file that you are discussing?
[11:46] <crimsun> nosrednaekim: two files at issue here.  asoundconfgui is executed (lines 56-63 are relevant)
[11:47] <crimsun> nosrednaekim: the second file is displayqt.py in writeConf()
[11:47] <nosrednaekim> ok
[11:47] <crimsun> (yes, it's ugly, I know :)
[11:48] <nosrednaekim> ugly?
[11:48] <nosrednaekim> looks like code to me.
[11:49] <crimsun> (ooh, I just spotted a logic error in the try: block, but that's another matter entirely)
[11:51] <nosrednaekim> crimsun: ok, the way I always write pyqt apps is to have a file JUST for the GUI class (no operations or such) another program then inherits that class. I believe that would fix your problem. but maybe qt3 is different. I only know qt4
[11:52] <nosrednaekim> in other words, i'd have writeConf() in asoundconf-ui
[11:52] <fdoving> crimsun: can't you just emit a signal at the end of the writeConf() then connect that signal to the quit() ?
[11:53] <fdoving> or do you writeConf() while running too?
[11:53] <crimsun> writeConf() is running
[11:53] <crimsun> err, poorly phrased on my part
[11:55] <nosrednaekim> so wait, you don't only run writeConfig() when you want to stop?
[11:55] <crimsun> I do
[11:56] <crimsun> when a user clicks the pushbutton, its clicked() is slotted to writeConf()
[11:56] <nosrednaekim> and then the app is supposed to close?
[11:56] <crimsun> yes
[11:56] <nosrednaekim> BRB
[12:00] <fdoving> crimsun: can't you use ::exit()  directly? i don't know how python handles this, but in c++ you can use ::exit() directly inside functions.
[12:00] <fdoving> when you want the program to quit.
[12:01] <fdoving> if you did that, inside writeConf() you wouldn't need to think more about signals and slots.
[12:01] <nosrednaekim> yeah,python has quit() but see, he's just quiting an imported class (which doesn't work too well)
[12:01] <crimsun> right, can't do that :)
[12:02] <nosrednaekim> crimsun: put writeConf into asoundconf-ui  and attach to the button.clicked() slot from there
[12:02] <crimsun> hmm, ok.  I'll investiaget that.
[12:02] <crimsun> Thanks for the pointers.
[12:02] <crimsun> urg, laggy wifi+ bad tyying
[12:03] <nosrednaekim> heh
[12:03] <nixternal> bah, use c++!
[12:03] <crimsun> shush mister vista
[12:04] <nixternal> nosrednaekim: don't try and use a can of hairspray, or Pam, and a lighter, I will spray back with WD-40
[12:04] <nixternal> muhehehe
[12:04] <nosrednaekim> haha
[12:04] <nixternal> Pam and WD-40 are the best though
[12:05] <crimsun> it's in the microsoft tech knowledge base
[12:05] <fdoving> wd-40 smells like perfume.
[12:05] <nosrednaekim> and they say it works especially fine on penguins.
[12:08] <fdoving> nosrednaekim: so python can't go "back" to the importing file, code-wise, like you can do displayqt.quit() but not main.quit() from displayqt. is that right?
[12:11] <nosrednaekim> I think it might be able to, I'm not sure how you do backwards inheritances like that.

[10:53] <PurpZeY> magnastik_: WHat happens when you try to run that aptget?
[10:53] <magnetron> !automatix | fatdigger silvertip257
[10:53] <ubotu> fatdigger silvertip257: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems.

[10:54] <silvertip257> fatdigger:  is that drive mounted?
[10:54] <bjv> i dont think these are the restricted-modules that i am missing, these drivers are even more basic then that
[10:54] <magnastik_> PurpZeY: it says "E: couldn't find package tofrodos"
[10:54] <fatdigger> silvertip257: yes
[10:54] <silvertip257> but nothing on that external drive?
[10:54] <magnetron> makaira: madwifi comes as an Ubuntu package. if you used that package, just uninstall it with Synaptic
[10:54] <bjv> is there even a package that includes vfat & i2c, isnt that covered by linux-image?

[10:56] <magnetron> makaira: 1: remove the ath_pci entry from /etc/modules. 2: remove the madwifi package with Synaptic.

[11:04] <Nutubuntu> Dominicus,  usb 1.1 has a max throughput of 12 mbps. if wireless throughput exceeds that, the usb would be the bottleneck. usb 2 has a max throughput of 480 mbps.
[11:05] <magnetron> Dominicus: usb 1.0 is 1MB/s . usb 1.1 is 12MB/s. usb2.0 is 480MB/s    so you need at least usb 1.1

[11:07] <PurpZeY> magnastik_: If it's *not* on the LiveCD (and you should check, b/c there are a bunch of packages on it) then you can use a flash-drive OR burn a CD. That'd be my recommendation...check the CD first.
[11:07] <PurpZeY> magnastik_: You can check the CD for it, via synaptic

[11:07] <rambo3> magnastik_, save the package on usb

[11:08] <makaira> I installed xSupplicant from the apt-get, I do believe.
[11:08] <Dominicus> Magnetron: I've set up Samba filesharing (the XP-pc is connected via wire to the router, the Ubuntu PC is connected via wireless card) but the transfer speeds are very slow, so I'm wondering whether plugging the wireless adapter from a USB 1.1 slot to a USB 2.0 slot would make a difference?
[11:08] <Krumar> hello all, i'm having a strange problem with my ubuntu install, when ever the computer goes to turn off the monitor for power save, at least that's what i assume it's trying to do, it just makes the monitor flash on and off as in the monitor goes between being in powersave mode and turning on saying that it can't find a signal, i know the hardware is good as it all worked fine when i used windows, i'm using Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn

[11:09] <Nutubuntu> Dominicus,  if it is as simple as moving a usb plug from one port to another, why not just try it? am I misunderstanding something?
[11:09] <hereweare> thanks
[11:09] <makaira> rambo3: Would it possibly have something to do with me trying to install xsupplicant before I tried it through apt-get? Would clearing out Xsupplicant through Synaptic maybe give me a better chance?
[11:09] <PurpZeY> magnastik_: So you have to move it over via usb flash driver

[11:09] <compilerwriter> what do you do when apt-get gets stuck?
[11:09] <magnetron> Dominicus: not sure, there are other limiting factors, but if you have a USB2.0 port you should use it. other factors would be the distance to the Acces point.

[11:20] <kinection> PurpZeY: yea, i know, doesn't hae much choice in this matter
[11:20] <magnetron> Dominicus: its ~5Mbit/s. 802.11b is 11Mb/s  (max), 5Mbit is what you might expect from it. see what nm-applet in the upper right corner says about the speed.
[11:20] <calc> Dominicus: b or g?
[11:20] <PurpZeY> kinection: Then you can do the grub fix that was described by ubotu above.
[11:20] <calc> Dominicus: for wireless at full rate you get about half what is claimed
[11:20] <JiffaJaffa> kinection, I'd recommend the other way round, Windows first then ubuntu
[11:20] <calc> Dominicus: so around 2.5MB/s for g and .5MB/s for b

[11:34] <kinection> leagris: excellent. that's all i wanted to know. ALthough... do you have the random 'trash' file when you go into gnome?
[11:34] <JiffaJaffa> beruic, Look under the "ServerLayout" Section
[11:34] <JiffaJaffa> beruic, Did you comment out/delete the synaptics line in there
[11:34] <weas3l> yeah, i'm trying to find that program for the dlink g510 wireless card...
[11:34] <weas3l> :S
[11:34] <stefg> Adorack: you can only boot to recovery mode (you're root then by default) and add yourself back to 'admin' 'sudoers' and stuff. might be easier to add a new user . But all tis is done on the command line
[11:34] <Dominicus> calc, my wireless adapter supports 802.11g, but I think it downgrades to b because of a weaker connection strength
[11:34] <leagris> kinection, random trash, didn't notice that
[11:34] <arooni> i have a geforce fx5200 card... and two 1280x1024 montiors.  right now with twinview enabled i get 1280x1024 on the primary, and 800x600 on the secondary... any ideas on how to fix?
[11:34] <Dominicus> Nutubuntu, yes I go through a router and yes, I have turbo and framebursting enabled
[11:34] <stu-mc> Q, I have created a user and set its home dir to a dir that already was there, yet not owned by the new user so it gave me an error. When i logged in under that user the home dir went back 1 place, so instead of /var/www/if-guild it puts the user in /var/www/. I have then altered the dir permissions using chown to the new user. I then usermod -d/var/www/if-guild <user>. the prob is it still los the user in /var/www/ ,  I have checked
[11:34] <Sasa> thanks again!!!
[11:35] <beruic> JiffaJaffa: I love you... Will try to coment that line + the section out and restart the shit...
[11:35] <makaira> rambo3: I restarted it. Still no wireless.
[11:35] <JiffaJaffa> beruic, Haha, i had the same trouble a while ago
[11:35] <tspier2> I have a DSL connection running at dial-up speed. I've reinstalled Linux, changed the cable connected to the computer for the DHCP, got a new router, and more, but my internet still won't run at DSL speed - any suggestions?

[11:35] <ubotu> stu-mc: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[11:35] <calc> Dominicus: oh
[11:35] <Adorack> stefg: I'm alright with that--are there any besides admin and sudoers that I should add while there?
[11:35] <kinection> leagris: well, back when i did it on slackware. installing gnome f'd up things in kde's menu, and then kde's trash appears in gnome as a file
[11:35] <makaira> rambo3: I also got rid of three madwifi files with synaptic. Possibly they had something to do with it?
[11:35] <SaintBelmont> Hey there people. Just installed Ubuntu.
[11:35] <calc> Dominicus: you may be able to force g in the wireless router
[11:35] <stu-mc> stefg - please read what i tyoed not just jumped down my thoat. please.
[11:36] <PurpZeY> SaintBelmont: Welcome!
[11:36] <arooni> i have a geforce fx5200 card... and two 1280x1024 montiors.  right now with twinview enabled i get 1280x1024 on the primary, and 800x600 on the secondary... any ideas on how to fix? (ubuntu 7.04)
[11:36] <Dominicus> calc, which would result in dropped packets, wouldn't it?
[11:36] <JiffaJaffa> SaintBelmont, Welcome to the wrold of linux
[11:36] <JiffaJaffa> world*
[11:36] <rambo3> makaira, can you reinstall madwifi
[11:36] <JiffaJaffa> ^^
[11:36] <calc> Dominicus: forcing g mode should work fine as long as all your equipment is g
[11:36] <makaira> rambo3: Sure, how would I do that?
[11:36] <makaira> is there an apt-get?
[11:36] <SaintBelmont> LoL, I'm a programmer and whatnot, and people keep telling me to get linux. So I'm trying it out.
[11:36] <stu-mc> i am just trying to keep everyone in here happy, as you guys are prolly my best hope as i am a new ubuntu user.
[11:36] <rambo3> !madwifi
[11:36] <calc> Dominicus: it causes it not to drop down to b for old equipment that may be nearby
[11:36] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:36] <leagris> kinection, oh yes it is, but realy it is no trouble having kde special files on the Desktop.
[11:37] <SaintBelmont> Ubuntu is using the most out of my 4KK/sec internet. I like the speed of it.
[11:37] <stefg> Adorack: i'd go adduser < newuser >, adduser <newuser>:admin , then chown the previous home-dir to that user. after that you can boot back to normal and fix what's missing with the GUI
[11:38] <younghacker_> For Some reason my SONY VAIO usb floppy drive doesn't work with Ubuntu, is there a module or something i should do to allow me to mount this floppy drive
[11:38] <PurpZeY> SaintBelmont: I've found personally that there is a lot less, heft.
[11:38] <PurpZeY> bloat*
[11:38] <Adorack> stefg: I'll try that, thanks.
[11:38] <kekos> hello, my microphone doesn't work, anybody knows how can I configure it to make it works?
[11:38] <kinection> leagris: ah, ok. i was hoping that got better. thanks for the info.
[11:38] <Nutubuntu> Dominicus,  well ... you need the router but the router will add some latency; that can't be helped. If you can force g - if all your equipmt is g - you might get some benefit of it. if there is a nearby 802.11b signal your hdwr may be trying to stay compatible with that

[11:41] <leagris> Is there a way of using DVD-RAM with packet writing without interfering with reading Dual-Layer DVDs?
[11:42] <tijn> Hey all
[11:42] <gaurav_> Hello folks!  I have a problem with synaptic - sometimes when i install a package, it doesn't seem to appear anywhere in the 'applications' list.  Is there some other way to access installed programs other than the main applications list?
[11:42] <arooni> i have a geforce 5200 fx and two monitors that are 1280x1024 each.  i have twinview enabled and the geforce drivers installed.  however i get 1280x1024 on the primary monitor.... and only 800x600 on the second.  ideas?
[11:42] <calc> lgc: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[11:42] <calc> lgc: that restarts the alsa-utils stuff
[11:42] <arooni> drivers are set to 'nvidia'
[11:42] <lgc> calc, thanks.
[11:42] <Luezair> how do i check if a CD burned correctly?
[11:42] <PurpZeY> gaurav_: If you can install the programs via add/remove, I've found that they appear faster...also if they're not GUI apps they are not going to be in those menus
[11:43] <kinection> gaurav_: some programs only run in the terminal. i don't think those show up in Applications menu. However, it is most likely installed in your path. which means if you go into gnome-terminal and type the program name
[11:43] <kinection> it should show up

[11:44] <Dominicus> Nutubuntu, thanks, I'll read that
[11:44] <hoelk> gaurav_ one way ist just pressing alt-f2 (run program) and just entering the name of the application
[11:44] <kinection> hoelk: does that run terminal apps in a terminal?
[11:44] <hoelk> gaurav_ some apps simply don't appear in the list :/
[11:44] <JiffaJaffa> kinection, Yes it does
[11:44] <gaurav_> hmm... thanks guys!
[11:45] <hoelk> kinection: theres a checkbox for "run in terminal" in the dialogue that appears
[11:45] <hoelk> ;)
[11:45] <tijn> what apps are you reffering too specificly?
[11:45] <hoelk> jumpnbump for example
[11:45] <hoelk> :P
[11:45] <tijn> hehe
[11:45] <Luezair> ahh, thanks PurpZeY, dd is what i need :)
[11:45] <tijn> that game is SO cool :D
[11:45] <gaurav_> you know, i installed a 'scrabble' game from synaptic.  Never thought they would make a game that runs in the terminal!!  :-)
[11:45] <arooni> i have a geforce 5200 fx and two monitors that are 1280x1024 each.  i have twinview enabled and the geforce drivers installed.  however i get 1280x1024 on the primary monitor.... and only 800x600 on the second.  ideas? (ubuntu 7.04, drivers set to nvidia)

[11:46] <administrator_> hey compuwiz, your beyond me then
[11:46] <administrator_> what type of video card do you have?
[11:47] <compuwiz> nvidid geforce mx 4000
[11:47] <compuwiz> nvidia
[11:47] <kinection> arooni: i suggest you go to http://gentoo-wiki.com/ and search for twinview. although some of the stuff doesn't apply, there will be some examples of xorg.conf that will probably solve your problem
[11:47] <administrator_> hrm, well if you had an intel on board video card, which of the choices would you have chosen in that list?
[11:48] <tom-mifflin> hi, i install Feisty with a DVD drive, and then swapped it out for a different drive, now the automount doesn't work
[11:48] <compuwiz> i dont know, i dont have an intel card
[11:48] <administrator_> does anyone know?
[11:48] <ant-> i810
[11:48] <administrator_> sweet, thanks
[11:49] <cwgannon> ahoy, i'm trying to get flash working in firefox, but with no luck -- i've run the tar.gz installer, but it didn't do anything
[11:50] <stefg> tom-mifflin: is the new drive set up the same way the old one was (i.e. jumperd as master, and on the same ide-port) ?
[11:50] <ompaul> cwgannon, close the browser twice
[11:50] <leagris> Anyone here have some experience in using DVD-RAM within Ubuntu?
[11:50] <tom-mifflin> stefg, yeah
[11:51] <Shadowpillar> my sound in ubuntu is really messed up
[11:52] <Shadowpillar> it was fine yesterday
[11:52] <cwgannon> i can't get flash to work in firefox -- i've run the tar.gz and installed packages thru synaptic, but with no luck at all -- suggestons?

[11:52] <stefg> tom-mifflin: so look at /etc/fstab, and see if the divice name for the drive is still right
[11:52] <compuwiz> does debian use x server as well?
[11:52] <cwgannon> !flash
[11:52] <Shadowpillar> now it has waaay too much bass and the volume control is not fixing it

[11:53] <tom-mifflin> stefg: it looks like the new drive is hdb (as opposed to hdc), but i can't seem to mount hdb manuall
[11:53] <john> hey guys
[11:53] <Shadowpillar> mwe: I've wiped my asound.state to no avail
[11:53] <Shadowpillar> mwe: and it isnt my speakers as sound is fine in windows
[11:53] <tom-mifflin> stefg, it just says "no medium found"
[11:53] <mwe> Shadowpillar: I'd suggest going over the soundtroubleshooting
[11:53] <Lekrem> john: hellp
[11:53] <Lekrem> john: hello
[11:54] <john> hey do you have any idea if asus sound drivers work with ubuntu?
[11:54] <stefg> tom-mifflin: if you run feisty it's more likely you have scd0 or scd1 ... (see !UUID)
[11:54] <leagris> tom-mifflin, hdb, hdc is the block device for the entire drive. You will have to check hdb1, 2, 3 .. for the partitions on the drive. Have a look at /proc/partitions to see if it actually has any partition on it
[11:54] <Shadowpillar> mwe: that page doesn't help
[11:54] <Shadowpillar> mwe: my bass goes up each time I open any sound thing
[11:54] <stefg> leagris: he's talking about a CD / DVD drive
[11:54] <Lekrem> john: sorry im not very good with drivers
[11:55] <tom-mifflin> leagris, if i do "ls /dev | grep hd", i get 3 partitions on hda and hdb
[11:55] <john> anybody else? i cant seem to getr my speakers to work
[11:55] <mwe> Shadowpillar: I see
[11:55] <Shadowpillar> I'm using an sblive
[11:56] <tom-mifflin> stefg, there's no scd devices
[11:56] <user01> im thinking of setting up a family file server . . . and im reading up on networks . . . why do i need samba?  couldnt ssh just work?
[11:57] <kinection> user01: samba allows windows users to 'mount' drives/shares
[11:57] <ompaul> user01, you could use nfs
[11:57] <kinection> user01: and access them as if they were local drives
[11:57] <bart__> i think u need samba if your using windows computers in your network
[11:57] <Thanaton> user01:  ssh isn't strictly a file sharing protocol
[11:57] <beruic> Hi, I have a huge problem with my synaptic mouse thingy.. It's fysically malfunctioning, if i touch it, it freaks out, so I want to disable it completely. I have commented out ALL synaptic stuff in xorg.conf, but it still * works. I have uninstalled tpconfig and tpctl. It's driving me crazy!!!
[11:57] <stefg> tom-mifflin: what happens if you put a CD in the drive and 'sudo mount /dev/scd0 /mnt' ? udev may have a wrong idea of your setup
[11:57] <walla_> anyone know if it's possible to set ur folder icons in nautilus to the album cover?
[11:57] <Shadowpillar> mwe: now my front channels dont work
[11:58] <jack__> Hi, I'm having boot issues
[11:58] <tom-mifflin> stefg, "mount: special device /dev/scd0 does not exist
[11:58] <tom-mifflin> "
[11:58] <mwe> Shadowpillar: odd since you say it was working yesterday
[11:58] <Shadowpillar> yes it was
[11:58] <jack__> everytime I boot, it stops, claiming it can't run a command in one of the scripts
[11:58] <Shadowpillar> I'm only getting sound out from the rear channels
[11:58] <beruic> Hi, I have a huge problem with my synaptic mouse thingy.. It's fysically malfunctioning, if i touch it, it freaks out, so I want to disable it completely.

[11:58] <Shadowpillar> mwe: and it works fine in windows
[11:58] <arooni> is there something i can do to make my dlink wifi card more powerful?  it barely picks up a signal thats pretty strong (not sure what drivers its using)
[11:58] <mwe> jack__: what command in what script?
[11:59] <jack__> /etc/rcS.d/S47irda-setup
[11:59] <tijn> beruic: mmh iam not sure if its wise to comment it out, maybe you 'd better keep it, but set it to disable or something..
[11:59] <jack__> sorry, having troulbe copying out of terminal
[11:59] <stefg> tom-mifflin: alright, so no libata for that drive. so if it was hdc before, and now is hdb it is definitly not jumpered the same way and not connected to the same IDE channel as the drive before
[11:59] <PurpZeY> arooni: If you are using the bfcutter method that tends to lower signal strength.
[12:00] <mwe> arooni: iwconfig txpower if the driver supports it
[12:00] <beruic> tijn: I'm open to anything now...
[12:00] <jack__> it's line 76 and 77, it says the device it tries to echo to is busy
[12:00] <tom-mifflin> stefg, well, what should i do... the drive is definitely functional, if i reboot, i can get it to boot to the Ubuntu LiveCD
[12:00] <cy> I'm on the live CD and I need to back some stuff up before I wipe and install ubuntu. The problem I'm having is that I can't burn a CD, not enough free space. Is there a way to burn straight from the file with no /tmp usage?
[12:00] <jack__> lines 76 and 77 are (let me go back to terminal so I can copy):
[12:00] <tijn> beruic: i've the same problem, but iam really not sure, because i havent used linux for a while :(
[12:00] <tijn> but! my new laptop with kubuntu is installing atm :D
[12:01] <mwe> arooni: sudo iwconfig wlan0 txpower 40 mW (or whatever your interface name is)
[12:01] <stefg> tom what does your /etc/fstab say about cdroms?
