[20:45] <Samekh93> no way to convert that partition? like you can convert fat32 to ntfs in windows
[20:45] <Samekh93> jrib: thanks again
[20:45] <trismegisto> ciao
[20:45] <Ower> is a program to create visual effects 3d anmation, ect.
[20:45] <acerimmer> !blender|ower
[20:45] <Ower> ciao trismegisto
[20:45] <jrib> Samekh93: you could reformat it of course but you would need some place to hold your data
[20:45] <luketheduke> Samekh93: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=2249
[20:46] <SteamInc> does anybody know any youtube downloaders for linux?
[20:46] <luketheduke> (the winehq page for eve online)
[20:46] <Ower> i just install it
[20:46] <Samekh93> jrib: yep, and unfortunately i dont have one
[20:46] <roberto__> robbrit: it will install then .. but I'm wanting to use it in a 1.9.1 script
[20:46] <Samekh93> thanks luketheduke
[20:46] <SteamInc> nvm
[20:46] <acerimmer> SteamInc: just add a youtube dl addon to firefox
[20:46] <Ower> ciao trismegisto
[20:46] <cofee> How can I upgrade from Ubuntu 8 to 9 ?
[20:46] <cabbrick1243> SteamInc: they are addons to firefox
[20:46] <jrib> SteamInc: if this is data you like, you should probably invest in back-ups.  Some advice from experience
[20:46] <SteamInc> ok thanks
[20:46] <WiFiLeech> firefox addons can DL youtube
[20:46] <amontimur> how do you install driverpackages?
[20:46] <jrib> Samekh93: if this is data you like, you should probably invest in back-ups.  Some advice from experience
[20:46] <jrib> SteamInc: never mind me
[20:47] <robbrit> roberto__: after it installs do ruby --version to find out what the default ruby version is
[20:47] <taroven> GRR. I can't get desktop compositing to work at ALL with the nvidia proprietary driver and Xinerama enabled.
[20:47] <Debjit> steaminc: youtube-dl
[20:47] <brad__> Hey all
[20:47] <Samekh93> jrib: I completely agree
[20:47] <Ower> ciao trismegisto sei italiano?
[20:47] <cabbrick1243> amontimur: depends on the driver
[20:47] <robbrit> roberto__: you might have better luck asking about this in #ruby-lang
[20:47] <Daskreech> the log from X starting is at http://www.pastebin.com/8A9U4LAG and the xorg.conf made by me is at http://www.pastebin.com/xunUNwaa
[20:47] <brad__> I stupidly tried to install Plasma in gnome for kicks
[20:47] <maco> !it | Ower
[20:47] <brad__> and it has borked apt/dpkg
[20:47] <cofee> there is no way, right?
[20:47] <brad__> So I cannot install/unistall anything
[20:47] <amontimur> cabbrick1242, i just got a folder more or less full of sourcecode
[20:47] <maco> brad__: you can run plasma widgets in a plasma viewer. and it shouldnt have broken apt
[20:47] <magicbronson> j #spawning
[20:47] <brad__> Yea, I know
[20:48] <maco> brad__: cuz having kde and gnome installed simultaneously is just fne
[20:48] <brad__> I have done it before
[20:48]  * Daskreech hugs maco
[20:48] <brad__> What I used to do was have plasma installed, and start it during logon, then I had a sexy plasma desktop in Gnome
[20:48] <Debjit> !youtube-dl
[20:48]  * WiFiLeech farts
[20:48] <brad__> But this time I tried to install and dpkg threw loads of errors
[20:48] <brad__> Now it will not do anything because every time I try to install a package
[20:49] <brad__> it wants to finish up on the borked plasma stuff
[20:49] <crankharder> so, my ubuntu 10.4 live cd boots up to the purple screen w/ the white ubuntu and the 5 white dots -- and just hangs there
[20:49] <andruk> how do i find duplicate msuci files *based off of their id3 tags* ?
[20:49] <featherofmaat> crankharder: a cd you burned, or one from launchpad?
[20:49] <onetinsoldier> brad__: apt-dpkg giving you problems? do you have an error message or a pastebin of errors?
[20:49] <brad__> 2 secs onetinsoldier
[20:49] <crankharder> cd i burned
[20:49] <brad__> Ill pastebin the output
[20:50] <MichaelKohler> isn't there a program which can set the resolution/size of a pdf file?
[20:50] <onetinsoldier> brad__: roger. i'll be here
[20:50] <brad__> *I guess this is what ubuntu does when you want to burn MS Server 2008 XD"
[20:50] <featherofmaat> crankharder: it's probably a bad burn or a bad download
[20:50] <SteamInc> the firefox addons for youtube dont work
[20:50] <onetinsoldier> brad__: lol
[20:50] <acerimmer> crankharder: burn it at a lower speed
[20:50] <Leonopteryx> now.. now i DO have a ubuntu issue. cant cd into an existing dir. (not even as root.)
[20:50] <featherofmaat> i'd try both again
[20:51] <luketheduke> Leonopteryx: what dir?
[20:51] <brad__> onetinsoldier: http://pastebin.com/NiWiAirF
[20:51] <Leonopteryx> /home/user/Bucket
[20:51] <SteamInc> does anybody know programs for downloading from youtube? cause the firefox ones dont work
[20:51] <brad__> onetinsoldier: That is just me trying to install a package as I normally would
[20:51] <featherofmaat> steaminc:  youtube-dl is a command-line program that downloads youtube vids
[20:51] <Debjit> SteamInc: try youtube-dl
[20:51] <featherofmaat> you don't have to use it from firefox
[20:52] <vianocturna85> anyone able to tell me where this error comes from or how i would fix it?: segfault at 7b9b2f40 ip 7b9b2f40 sp aa8fbf9c error 4 in ntdll.dll.so
[20:52] <dfgas> ok, upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 and now i don't have any title bars, i can get them by turning desktop effects on but after i reboot its back to no title bars. any ideas on whats wrong?
[20:52] <acerimmer> SteamInc: the cheat is to play the video.  While it plays, a flash file will be in your /filesystem/tmp directory.  That's the video.  Copy/Save
[20:52] <jc> hi
[20:52] <onetinsoldier> brad__: roger. i'm looking at it. it looks pretty ugly
[20:52] <Mandrew> i have a bit of problem with the connection between the iphone and the bluetooth and i think its the drivers, cuz when i installed ubuntu i had the on board chip activated and now im using a usb bluetooth, so i wonder how i reinstall the bluetooth drivers and anything els that need to be reinstalled
[20:52] <SteamInc> i just want the mp3
[20:53] <brad__> onetinsoldier: Echo that!
[20:53] <Craiggles> hey guys
[20:53] <featherofmaat> steaminc:  after you get the youtube flv, use ffmpeg to separate the two
[20:53] <Craiggles> can someone help me get webgl to work on chronium?
[20:53] <crankharder> of course my 10.4/server disk won't even get past the BIOS's "Boot from CD/DVD"
[20:53] <guy_> I've accidently rm'ed my /var/cache and now whenever I run ubuntu I can't move my mouse or use the keyboard, anyone got a clue why ?
[20:53] <Craiggles> I downloaded the zip file, and then ran `./chrome --enable-webgl`
[20:53] <Craiggles> but, that didn't work
[20:54] <brad__> crankharder: Check the MD5sum of the disk against the downloads
[20:54] <Craiggles> (and the tutorial said it would be chronium, not chrome, but I have no chromium app
[20:54] <vianocturna85> anyone able to tell me where this error comes from or how i would fix it?: segfault at 7b9b2f40 ip 7b9b2f40 sp aa8fbf9c error 4 in ntdll.dll.so
[20:54] <brad__> crankharder: I had the same problem, turned out the burn was borked
[20:54] <SteamInc> ill just download it on my win comp then it has youtube downloader
[20:54] <Docteh_> !exaile
[20:54] <luketheduke> Craiggles: looks like you want to do ./configure --enable-webgl maybe
[20:55] <Debjit> dfgas: is metacity installed
[20:55] <luketheduke> just a stab in the dark though
[20:55] <miolands> since upgrading to Lucid I am having trouble with privileges on external usb drive, anyone?
[20:55] <featherofmaat> craiggles:  or try it with chromium proper.  i think you have to get it through ubuntu-tweak
[20:55] <Imran-UK> where is the appripriate place to file a bug/report on a problem with user accounts without passwords and switching between such accounts (lucid lynx)
[20:55] <brad__> I wish I could convert the whole of my workplace to linux XD
[20:55] <guy_> anyone ?:/ I'm quite clueless how to fix this ? :\
[20:55] <Craiggles> luketheduke, it says there is no configure
[20:55] <brad__> then I wouldnt need any of this MS crap
[20:56] <modprobe> can anyone please help me with this problem, whem modprobing my driver i get an error that theres an option unsupported but the tutorial says i should add. can someone tell how to fix the error? http://paste.ubuntu.com/430182/
[20:56] <zleap> brad__, Know how u feel
[20:56] <acerimmer> !bug|imran-uk
[20:56] <yoritomo> hello
[20:57] <awakeash> yoritomo hello :)(
[20:57] <onetinsoldier> brad__: the only thing i can think of to get around that is to make it so that dpkg no longer considers those packages as being installed, and then you'd have to go around remove the directories/files manually that these packages installed
[20:57] <linux_is_my_hero> how do i install windows to make a dual boot when i already have ubuntu?
[20:57] <linux_is_my_hero> and no partition
[20:57] <yoritomo> does anyone knows a good pinball simulator  for ubuntu, similar to visual pinball for windows ?
[20:58] <luketheduke> linux_is_my_hero: you do need a partition. you can try to make an existing partition smaller with gedit.
[20:58] <luketheduke> then you install windows
[20:58] <luketheduke> then you use a live cd to reinstall grub
[20:58] <brad__> onetinsoldier: ok, how would I go about doing that?
[20:58] <featherofmaat> linux_is_my_hero: i think he meant gparted
[20:58] <linux_is_my_hero> i have a 250gb with ubuntu only.  what are my options for setting up a partition?
[20:58] <acerimmer> !gparted|linux_is_my_hero
[20:58] <modprobe> help me please :) http://paste.ubuntu.com/430182/
[20:58] <luketheduke> featherofmaat: oops, brainfart
[20:59] <featherofmaat> lol :D
[20:59] <roberto__> modprobe: hey peter
[20:59] <onetinsoldier> brad__: well, it'll take some time, and you'll need to edit a file carefully, i repeat... carefully :)
[20:59] <modprobe> roberto__: hi im so close now :)
[20:59] <roberto__> modprobe: what's the url for the package? I'll look at it with you
[20:59] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: What do you want Windows for?
[20:59] <edgy360> hey Kyle-Morgan
[20:59] <brad__> onetinsoldier: oh god XD
[21:00] <Kyle-Morgan> Hi
[21:00] <crankharder> how do I MD5sum a disk once it's been burnt?
[21:00] <rain_> hi does anyone know any program to mass rotate images?
[21:00] <onetinsoldier> brad__: want to try?
[21:00] <sebsebseb> !md5sum | crankharder
[21:00] <yoritomo> it has a linux gaming channel ?
[21:00] <modprobe> roberto__: the pastebin? http://paste.ubuntu.com/430182/
[21:00] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: i don't.  but i dont know how to make netflix work on ubuntu.
[21:00] <brad__> onetinsoldier: Sure, ima going to get this packaged installed whether I need to reinstall ubuntu or not!
[21:00] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: ah yes netflix
[21:00] <jrib> rain_: imagemagick of course
[21:00] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: they used to support Linux as far as I know, but not anymore
[21:00] <onetinsoldier> brad__: oh? what are you trying to get installed?
[21:00] <oCean_> crankharder: the point is, you want to md5sum *before* burning.. to verify integrity
[21:00] <brad__> libudf0
[21:01] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: although if u know of a better way to stream movies, please, im all ears.  and if u have to pm me thats fine also.
[21:01] <soreau> why is file roller telling me I can't open a tar.gz file even though tar and gzip are installed? I clicked open with archive manager in firefox on a tar.gz but it fails with this message about the helper application doesn't exist and something about associated apps
[21:01] <awakeash> linux_is_my_hero I would make a 1-st partition Primary with windows (about 30 Giga), second partition 60 Giga for linux (primary) and another with datas such ans photos music xxx etc. lol rolf :)) . Install first time windows second linux.
[21:01] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: well how much RAM you got?
[21:01] <awakeash> or wirtualization
[21:01] <awakeash> :D
[21:01] <linux_is_my_hero> 4 gb
[21:01] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: 4gb
[21:01] <roberto__> modprobe: just to try it, do "sudo modprobe adv717x em8300"
[21:01] <sebsebseb> awakeash: yes I was going to mention virtualization
[21:01] <awakeash> vmware / etc.
[21:01] <brad__> onetinsoldier: libudf0 - as I said, I need to extract a MS Server ISO onto my HDD, but obviously I cant install that package due to my awesome dpkg issues
[21:01] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: try a Windows virtual machine
[21:01] <awakeash> sebsebseb ups :)
[21:01] <sebsebseb> awakeash: ups ?
[21:02] <awakeash> i dond't mean to take your ideea
[21:02] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: also I don't use netflix, but maybe you can get the program working in Wine
[21:02] <Guest94303> anybody willing to help me out with a teensy issue
[21:02] <onetinsoldier> brad__: ok, roger
[21:02] <modprobe> roberto__: dont work ;)
[21:02] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: I mean I know it's a website
[21:02] <roberto__> modprobe: oo I see it's asking you to configure it
[21:02] <sebsebseb> !ask | Guest94303
[21:02] <EvaLuaTe> hello
[21:02] <edgy360> Kyle-Morgan, have you asked your question yet?
[21:02] <featherofmaat> guest94303: i will try.
[21:02] <onetinsoldier> brad__: put yourself into a root shell for now with 'sudo -i' in a terminal
[21:02] <BluesKaj> Guest94303, we don't give marital advice here :)
[21:02] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: thats a good idea, and also, if wine doesnt work, what is a virtual machine? ive heard of it but inow nothing of the technicalities
[21:03] <rain_> jrib: how  to install imagemagik? it don't have deb file
[21:03] <frxstrem> what does the 'bind' option for mount do?
[21:03] <EvaLuaTe> if I want to create a custom ubuntu release, am I allowed to use ubuntu graphics on the website and, more importnatly, am I allowed to modify a ubuntu CD and redistribute it in the modified version?
[21:03] <sunil> web can work in ubuntu 9.10 ?
[21:03] <roberto__> modprobe: sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/em8300
[21:03] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: a virtual machine allows you to run Windows inside a better OS such as Ubuntu
[21:03] <edgy360> is there any way to use wifi on ubuntu server?
[21:03] <roberto__> modprobe: paste lines 18-20 in there
[21:03] <onetinsoldier> brad__: and/or rnu gedit or whatever as root with 'gksu'
[21:03] <onetinsoldier> run*
[21:03] <sunil> hello
[21:04] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: it works great for most stuff, not 3D games though for example, well that depends I think on hardware actsauly these days and such
[21:04] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: how is that different from wine? it actually runs windows within ubuntu?
[21:04] <featherofmaat> sunil: certainly, most webcams should work out-of-box
[21:04] <featherofmaat> sunil: you can test it by using cheese
[21:04] <Guest94303> Just upgraded to lucid lynx from karmic koala, have two nvidia cards and three monitors setup with xinerama... worked fine on kk, on ll the mouse goes berserk when I mouse into the monitor on the second card... but apps launch onto that screen and the keyboard input to them works fine.
[21:04] <awakeash> I'ts better with 2 hdd-s like 1-st hdd with Windows and linux virtualization on second hdd, you know stuff like I/O
[21:04] <modprobe> sudo mousepad /etc/modprobe.d/em8300
[21:04] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: yes Wine basicaly is a compatiably layour that tricks apps into thinking they are running on Windows.  where as a virtual machine will run Windows
[21:04] <brad__> onetinsolder: Done
[21:05] <awakeash> bye bye
[21:05] <modprobe> roberto__: are there :)
[21:05] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: how do i get around the microsoft silverlight thing?
[21:05] <Guest94303> what's wrong with my mouse when it goes to the second card?
[21:05] <roberto__> modprobe: mousepad? -- hey, actually, name it "em8300.conf" if you want to stop seeing that error message
[21:05] <featherofmaat> guest94303: i'm gonna pass that one on to someone else lol, i've never even considered using multiple monitors
[21:05] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: as a result of course an Internet connected,  vm could get infected by a virus or something,  However since it's a vm,  you get  a nice security advantage over a pshyical install
[21:05] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: oh netflix needs silverlight?
[21:05] <modprobe> sudo mousepad /etc/modprobe.d/em8300.conf
[21:05] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: yeah
[21:05] <roberto__> modprobe: save the file, quit gedit, and rerun the sudo modprobe line
[21:05] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: there's moonlight, which might do netflix
[21:05] <neorab> it doesn't
[21:06] <onetinsoldier> brad__: ok. i'll try to just go step by step. first, make a backup of the file /var/lib/dpkg/status
[21:06] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: if not  you can maybe Wine silverlight,  plus  I expect Silverlight will work rather well in a WIndows virtual machine
[21:06] <neorab> netflix has said they are going to get us a linux player, but it hasn't happened yet
[21:06] <roberto__> modprobe:  works better on it the terminal app :P
[21:06] <neorab> I've run the web player in a VM before though
[21:06] <neorab> it works fine
[21:06] <sebsebseb> neorab: I think they used to support Linux?
[21:06] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: thats cool i didnt know we had that now.
[21:06] <neorab> it used to work with some trickery
[21:06] <modprobe> roberto__: hehe lol i get confused but still same after rerun
[21:06] <rawr> is there something akin to the older winamp on ubuntu?  I tried amarok, rhythmbox, banshee, and they're all terrible at what I want to do (i.e. listen to music)
[21:06] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: moonlight is a bit hrm though
[21:06] <neorab> but they went from WMP to Silverlight
[21:07] <tim__b> Did anyone manage to install lucid using the alternate cd on a system with intel mobile GM965/GL960 graphic controller? Running into a black screen after first selection menu (language/instal, etc)
[21:07] <neorab> rawr: xmms
[21:07] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: just like Silverlight, it's best to avoide them as much as possible, ideally
[21:07] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: what do u mean "hrm"?
[21:07] <rawr> neorab, I just installed that, it's not "new and improved" with a server/client architecture which doesn't seem to work at all
[21:07] <rawr> -not
[21:07] <brad__> onetinsoldier: ok done :)
[21:07] <roberto__> modprobe: do a "ls -la /etc/modprobe.d and check that the permissions on that file are the same as on the others
[21:07] <Guest94303> anyone had any luck getting the nvidia proprietary drivers running on lucid lynx?
[21:07] <modprobe> roberto__: oh wait could it be that the unknown parameter in line 9 of the url i gave u is the cause
[21:08] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: that's off  topic for the Ubuntu channel, but  Silverlight and Moonlight are not good technologies,  for various reasons.
[21:08] <onetinsoldier> brad__: ok, bear with me. i might go pretty slow. but we'll get there
[21:08] <modprobe> roberto__: look at the comment dots :p
[21:08] <brad__> onetinsoldier: ditto
[21:08] <linux_is_my_hero> Guest94303: I'm running 'em right now
[21:08] <mrwes> I prefer my Netflix streamed to my PS3
[21:08] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: however if you still want to do netflix,  maybe Moonlight,  or  Silverlight in Wine, or yep Windows virtual machine should do it
[21:08] <neorab> rawr: are you sure you got xmms and not xmms2?
[21:08] <linux_is_my_hero> mrwes: i dont have the disc yet
[21:08] <rawr> neorab, ah right, that's xmms2
[21:08] <lungan> Having som delay when unminimizing windows in ubuntu, minimizing goes well, but when unminimizing I have like a 0.5-1.0 sec delay which is pretty anyoing, fresh install and so on, is there anyway to fix this?
[21:08] <modprobe> roberto__: nm :(
[21:08] <mrwes> linux_is_my_hero, only takes a day to get it :)
[21:09] <neorab> xmms old school is almost identical to windows
[21:09] <linux_is_my_hero> im in military barracks and i dont trust the mail people on my ship
[21:09] <neorab> though it might not run anymore
[21:09] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: oh
[21:09] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: well try Moonlight or Silverlight in Wine, then I guess
[21:09] <brad__> linux_is_my_hero: What part of the millitary you in? (If you dont mind me asking)
[21:09] <rawr> yeah I vaguely remember using it and it *not* choking down on 30k file playlists
[21:09] <linux_is_my_hero> navy
[21:09] <mrwes> linux_is_my_hero, Sony is going to have a future firmware where you won't need the disk.
[21:09] <roberto__> modprobe: does it exist?
[21:10] <Polemus1> where can i get k3b .deb file?
[21:10] <brad__> linux_is_my_hero: Awesome :)
[21:10] <sebsebseb> Planet_x: you don't need to do that
[21:10] <linux_is_my_hero> mrwes: any info on that?
[21:10] <linux_is_my_hero> like a date?
[21:10] <sebsebseb> no not you Planet_x
[21:10] <roberto__> modprobe: if [ -f /etc/modprobe.d/adv717x.conf ] ; then echo "yup" ; fi
[21:10] <__-osh-__> lungan: I have abyssmal performance on my box atm. Seems that strigi is indexing lots of files so the machine is thrashing like hell.
[21:10] <sebsebseb> Polemus1: you don't need to do that, k3b is in the repo
[21:10] <linux_is_my_hero> brad__: yeah, i like it :-)
[21:10] <modprobe> roberto__: the swap redblue pal is in the config file /etc/modprobe.d/em8300
[21:10] <Polemus1> sebsebseb: how di i install it then?
[21:11] <onetinsoldier> brad__: do a search on the name of offending package in that file
[21:11] <mrwes> linux_is_my_hero, not until next year from what I've read
[21:11] <sebsebseb> Polemus1: sudo apt-get install k3b in the terminal
[21:11] <modprobe> roberto__: u think i can remove the option because its not supported apparently and get rid of the FATAL?
[21:11] <brad__> ok
[21:11] <neorab> I've switched to mpd and couldn't ever see myself using regular audio players anymore

[21:11] <mrwes> linux_is_my_hero, someone from the mail room couldn't use it for your account, you know that correct?
[21:11] <roberto__> modprobe: yes
[21:11] <mrwes> ok ok sebsebseb sorry brutha
[21:11] <roberto__> modprobe: but if you get the same error again, then put it back
[21:11] <Polemus1> sebsebseb: pfff... forgot the sudo... :)
[21:11] <madjestyr> So my 18 month old son was playing on my keyboard while I was busy and now my windows maximize as if there was a panel above them, and I only have one panel on bottom.  Any suggestions?
[21:11] <rawr> neorab, I have the vague impression that xmms / beep /audacious will all implode if I try to load them in my tiling wm though
[21:11] <sebsebseb> Polemus1: oh
[21:12] <__-osh-__> lungan: Like a 2-4 sec lag between klicking the menu button and actually seeing the menu... :-(
[21:12] <Polemus1> sebsebseb: tx
[21:12] <sebsebseb> Polemus1: np
[21:12] <onetinsoldier> brad__: get rid of the entire section for each of the offending packages in that file
[21:12] <Daan> Hello, is there a 'teacher' program like openteacher that is special made for Ubuntu?
[21:12] <sebsebseb> Daan: hrm
[21:13] <neo_ryke> hi
[21:13] <brad__> onetinsoldier: ok :)
[21:13] <neorab> rawr: that's probably true (depending on the wm) though you should be able to set it to be floating or otherwise not dynamic tile that app
[21:13] <roberto__> Daan: check out edubuntu
[21:13] <sebsebseb> Daan: not sure,  however it's worth asking in #edubuntu
[21:13] <neo_ryke> I installed Server Edition unf 10:04 php5-xdebug installed. With phpinfo () is also displayed, which is installed xdebug. Only the expenditure is not formatted, and the debugger starts and n ot. Anyone have experience with it?
[21:13] <onetinsoldier> brad__: :-) then of course save the file and tell me what happens
[21:13] <modprobe> roberto__: unexpected token fi?
[21:13] <Daan> roberto__: Ok, good point.
[21:13] <lungan> __-osh-__, anoying!
[21:13] <n1ghtcr4wler> BitchX-1.0c18+ by panasync - OpenBSD 4.7
[21:13] <roberto__> modprobe: you put taht in bash and got an error ?
[21:14] <pun84> My install wont load after I just got a power outage, on boot up it is  saying "The disc drive for / is not ready yet or not present"  " Continue to wait: or press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery" what can i do??
[21:14] <gkahla> anyone else having trouble with gwibber in 10.4? it updated once, and now won't show new posts...
[21:14] <pun84> version 10.04
[21:14] <roberto__> modprobe: what --version of bash are you using?
[21:14] <vosti> hi all
[21:14] <Vigo> pun84: Have you checked the BIOS?
[21:14] <onetinsoldier> brad__: if these packages have installed files onto your filesystem, they'll still be there and you'll need to manually delete them. i believe i can tell you how to see where they are from just the package name
[21:15] <pun84> nope, what should i be looking for? When i go into the manaul recovery, i still see /home and the contents
[21:15] <roberto__> modprobe: anything over version 3.x should accept that, I think. it was all on one line ?
[21:15] <pun84> it just wont go through the bootup process
[21:15] <Daan> roberto__, sebsebseb: There is no activity in #edubuntu...
[21:15] <neo_ryke> I installed Server Edition unf 10:04 php5-xdebug installed. With phpinfo () is also displayed, which is installed xdebug. Only the expenditure is not formatted, and the debugger starts and n ot. Anyone have experience with it?
[21:15] <sebsebseb> Daan: yes small channel and it's Saturday
[21:16] <sebsebseb> danielbw: well Sunday in some time zones
[21:16] <vosti> i have a ati radeon 9200 M9+ 5C63 i need to install its drivers
[21:16] <sebsebseb> !patience | Daan
[21:16] <modprobe> roberto__: what i did now is remove the option, dmesg: adv717x: Unknown parameter em8300 ? did i make it worse
[21:16] <Buds> Hello, I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to access a macbooks EFI (to disable floppy drive)??
[21:16] <sebsebseb> Daan: ok not right factoid there
[21:16] <sebsebseb> Daan: well not right useage, of it
[21:16] <sky1> I'm dual booting Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.04, and I have some data hard drives. Should they be ext4 or NTFS? I assume NTFS would be preferred since it has the best cross compatibility with windows and ubuntu? (Windows having no ext4 support really)
[21:16] <Daan> ubottu: ok, ill repeat it.
[21:17] <Vigo> pun84: Many times after a power interrupt the BIOS date reverts Manufacture Time, might be a year or up to 10 off, also many many settings can be effected by it, walk carefully in that area.
[21:17] <vosti> help:)
[21:17] <vosti>  i have a ati radeon 9200 M9+ 5C63 i need to install its drivers
[21:17] <GeekSquid> sky1: are the data drives currently NTFS?
[21:17] <NateWiebe> just did an update, rebooted, and firefox got REALLY slow.. anyone else having this problem?
[21:17] <brad__> onetinsoldier: Ok so I edited the file, should I run an apt command to test?
[21:18] <NetLarIrvine> Is it still bad to install the proprietary drivers fro the NVidia card??
[21:18] <sky1> GeekSquid:  Sadly they're currently ext4, but I can't read (or write) them on Windows and would like to.
[21:18] <Buds> anyone know of a way to access a macbooks EFI (to disable floppy drive)??
[21:18] <roberto__> modprobe: I'm not uderstanding why adv717x's error message is changing based on your changes to the config file for a different module: em8300
[21:18] <NetLarIrvine> On 10.04?
[21:18] <onetinsoldier> brad__: yes
[21:18] <sky1> GeekSquid:  so I figure my best course of action is to deal with it, or to backup the data and format it as NTFS instead.
[21:18] <patdk-wk> sky1, ntfs is ok, but if you don't shutdown windows cleanly, then the ntfs driver in ubuntu will refuse to use them
[21:18] <patdk-wk> so fat32 *might* be a better solution
[21:18] <Vigo> pun84: Do you know how to get into BIOS on that box?
[21:19] <sky1> fat32 is not a very good solution for 1+TB drives I do not think :P
[21:19] <patdk-wk> why I said *might*
[21:19] <__-osh-__> sky1: I'm told that ntfs support is somewhat dangerous so if it's just for storing data go for FAT or something. However my experience with NTFS on Linux isn't all that fresh. Things might have improved.
[21:19] <roberto__> modprobe: chat me in private please
[21:19] <modprobe> roberto__: how?
[21:19] <roberto__> modprobe: see a sperate tab already opened from me ?
[21:20] <sky1> patdk-wk:  of course lol. Yeah I think NTFS is probably best as long as I shutdown nicely, but sadly it's going to be a pain to backup 2TB of data to format the drive from ext4. But as of right now its impossible to read/write from windows on them, which I think I'd rather be able to, even if ubuntu is going to the main OS
[21:20] <brad__> onetinsoldier: Ok, well, wow, the bad packages are gone
[21:20] <onetinsoldier> brad__: roger. cool
[21:20] <brad__> onetinsoldier: but now it just shows more bad packages
[21:20] <giant81> have a problem with my audio in Ubuntu
[21:20] <GeekSquid> sky1: couple of options, either backup those data drives to NTFS drives or install this in windows http://www.ext2fsd.com/
[21:20] <giant81> 00:06.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP55 High Definition Audio (rev a2)
[21:21] <patdk-wk> sky1, how much free space on the drive?
[21:21] <vosti>  i have a ati radeon 9200 M9+ 5C63 i need to install its drivers
[21:21] <w3l54666> how do i black list the rt2800 driver?
[21:21] <onetinsoldier> brad__: ok, i guess i'd need to see a pastebin
[21:21] <anigma> is there a ubuntu server edition?
[21:21] <tom_fishy_> hi, I have just recently installed Ubuntu 10.4. I used 9.10 for a few months but stoped because my video drivers (ati card) wasn't perfect. If I for instance watched a movie in VLC the whole video was messed up. If I played it in gnome-mplayer it was "okey" but not good. Now I have installed ubuntu as a virtual guest os with Virtualbox running from Windows 7. And even though I only have half the ram and so on I can p
[21:21] <tom_fishy_> lay movies in VLC (720p x264) with no problem, which is very good! My question is now this, Will I get the same result If I install ubuntu not virtually or can I use virtualbox drivers (guest additions) because they seems to work better.
[21:21] <GeekSquid> anigma: yep, no GUI though
[21:21] <sky1> I tried ext2fsd. I was able to get a listing of the root of the drive, but that was it, and I tried opening some files and the drive ended up getting corrupted :/ (and the files were gibberish). LUCILY fsck was able to fix the errors though (thank god lol)
[21:22] <brad__> onetinsolder: http://pastebin.com/vXf7mEN1
[21:22] <giant81> should start with a little background.  Tyan Motherboard, Dual Opteron system, Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop x64
[21:22] <anigma> GeekSquid: that's perfect cause' I don't have a monitor..
[21:22] <patdk-wk> sky1, sounds like you have ext4 with extents
[21:22] <patdk-wk> that is not ext2 compat :)
[21:22] <sebsebseb> !server | anigma
[21:22] <sky1> the 1.5TB drive has about 800GB free, and the 1TB drive has  160GB free. Yeah that's what I figured patdk-wk, I'm surprised there isn't better support though. It is the 'oh so godly' windows :P
[21:22] <onetinsoldier> brad__: are you running kbuntu?
[21:23] <Wilthril> hi guys
[21:23] <patdk-wk> heh? better support?
[21:23] <__-osh-__> patdk-wk: Is there an upgrade path between ext3 and ext4? Or is ext4 only for new installs?
[21:23] <brad__> onetinsoldier: no, ubuntu 10.04
[21:23] <linux_is_my_hero> anyone know how to set up moonlight on lucid?
[21:23] <patdk-wk> ext4 is compat with ext2 and ext3
[21:23] <patdk-wk> and you can upgrade any to ext4
[21:23] <un214> yes, but not me
[21:23] <winXPuser> !moonlight
[21:23] <patdk-wk> but the new stuff in ext4 you can't upgrade to
[21:23] <winXPuser> um
[21:23] <patdk-wk> and if you use the new stuff in ext4, it's not backwards compat

[21:23] <sky1> haha well considering the user-base you'd think a good ext4 reader would exist for Windows considering how awesome NTSF support has gotten for linux
[21:23] <patdk-wk> well, techincally ext3 isn't backwards compat with ext2, but
[21:24] <Wilthril> i have lots of trouble to disable my touchpad, someone can help me?
[21:24] <patdk-wk> sky1, personally, I never dualboot
[21:24] <patdk-wk> I have iwndows systems, and linux systems
[21:24] <patdk-wk> I don't mix them :)
[21:24] <patdk-wk> and my last windows system goes away this week
[21:24] <GeekSquid> sky1: you need to turn off the extents feature in ext4 see this http://www.soluvas.com/read-browse-explore-open-ext2-ext3-ext4-partition-filesystem-from-windows-7/
[21:24] <Wilthril> i have the latest gpointing-device-settings but it disables the touchpad only for a few seconds... after that it's enabled again
[21:24] <sebsebseb> winXPuser: it's good to |  username  people so they get high lighted, when using factoids, otherwise they might miss it
[21:25] <sky1> GeekSquid: oo I can turn it off... that might work. patdk-wk: I'm not that rich haha :P. I think my plan is to use windows mostly for games, and ubuntu for everything else, but haven't 100% decided yet lol
[21:25] <GeekSquid> sky1: another option would be to use a virtual machine of win7 and share the drives from linux
[21:25] <pup> I'm setting up a server for a friends wobsite, and I'm not positive I won't need help.
[21:26] <pup> I'm using ubuntu server. You guys can help me, right?
[21:26] <onetinsoldier> brad__: roger. those are more kde packages that are hosed. i don't know what the 'Exec error' is.. but
[21:26] <sky1> GeekSquid:  wait, you mean a linux VM in windows 7? Or a windows 7 VM in linux?
[21:26] <jrib> pup: only if you ask a question
[21:26] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: saw the answer, or did you miss it?
[21:26] <pup> I mean, if I do end up needing help...
[21:26] <Flannel> pup: Yep.  You may also be interested in this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP  Which will walk you through a lot ofit
[21:26] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: it just finished im gunna try it now :-)
[21:26] <onetinsoldier> brad__: all i can say is, it looks like you need to remove them from your edited 'status' file and try again
[21:26] <pup> But I do have a good question, now that you'll say it.
[21:26] <mazda01> anyone know the exact ffmpeg or mencoder syntax to convert some 1.1 GB mpg files down to around 700 mb avi files?
[21:26] <markus__> hy everybody
[21:26] <mazda01> xvid preferrably
[21:27] <GeekSquid> sky1: it can only be turned off during the creation process of a ext4 drive, if you have room on another drive you could create a ext4 with no extent and backup each drive one at a time... I was saying win7 guest on linux host
[21:27] <Liberty> leave()
[21:27] <Liberty> #leave
[21:27] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: nope its not wokring after i eat and take a shower im gunna try a virtual machine
[21:27] <Flannel> Liberty: /part
[21:27] <Liberty> thanks
[21:27] <pup> is apache, mysql and php all I'll need? It's a wordpress blog
[21:27] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: yes I think Moonlight only has support for Silverlight 1
[21:27] <linux_is_my_hero> why does lucid 086 have 4 desktops but not on my x64 machine (only 2)?
[21:27] <__-osh-__> pup: What'll you use to power the website? Joomla? Drupal? Wordpress?
[21:27] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: or something like that
[21:27] <linux_is_my_hero> *x86
[21:28] <brad__> onetinsoldier: Ok, well I tried that, and it spat out more package errors
[21:28] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: the desktops on the panel you mean?
[21:28] <sky1> geeksquid: I'm kinda scared to fool with the ext2fsd now though since it almost killed my data the first time. Ah okay so it might be better to just make an NTFS instead since it does seem like its better support regardless if I have to backup data/format a drive.
[21:28] <zleap> linux_is_my_hero, you can change the number of desktops
[21:28] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: it's two by default
[21:28] <onetinsoldier> brad__: is it yet more kde packages?
[21:28] <linux_is_my_hero> zleap: how?
[21:28] <brad__> onetinsoldier: so I just nuked the file, and created a blank one, and it had trouble installing libselinux
[21:28] <__-osh-__> pup: Wordpress. Yep. Fairly straightforward. Just use the install instructions.
[21:28] <GeekSquid> pup: yes, the installer for wordpress will tell you if you have everything you need installed, if you don't, install what you need and restart apache
[21:28] <brad__> onetinsoldier: No it was just standard libs that time
[21:28] <zleap> linux_is_my_hero, right click and choose preferences, or i do that here
[21:28] <savid> I'm having this weird issue with my laptop -- when it's on battery power, 80% full,  it just shuts off,  and I can't power-on.  I can only power-on when plugged in.  Why might that be happening?
[21:29] <jMyles> We are having an ubuntu expo today, and I'm trying to show Gwibber to people.  Is it true that Gwibber doesn't let you tag on facebook (like point to the @ubuntu page)?  This is a major flaw.
[21:29] <mshadle> does anyone here have vmware server 1.x running on lucid? or, worst case, vmware server 2.x running (that doesn't crash?)
[21:29] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: when you do the vm, Virtualbox :)
[21:29] <onetinsoldier> brad__: roger. i don't know what's going on there. might be too messy for me to know how to fix
[21:29] <zleap> linux_is_my_hero, that means right click  on the panel section that shows the switcher thing
[21:29] <brad__> Does anyone else find it extremely annoying that empathy is the default IM client?
[21:29] <Loshki> sky1: ext3 is the most stable filesystem for Ubuntu. What ar you trying to do?
[21:29] <patdk-wk> I thought vmware server was dead years ago
[21:29] <patdk-wk> either use workstation, or esxi
[21:29] <brad__> onetinsoldier: Yea, I think im just going to download the final release and reinstall
[21:29] <mshadle> nope it's alive and well
[21:29] <brad__> Pidgin is much better im
[21:29] <brad__> *imo
[21:30] <linux_is_my_hero> zleap: thanks!
[21:30] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: definately will
[21:30] <mshadle> esxi does not run on a host, workstation requires X. this is headless
[21:30] <sky1> Loshki: I just want the most compatible file system to use on both Windows and Ubuntu, and so far Windows ext support (at least ext4) seems very lacking. I suppose if ext2 or 3 works great on Windows that could be a viable solution as well.
[21:30] <zleap> linux_is_my_hero, no probs
[21:30] <linux_is_my_hero> email if u have details or recommendations<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[21:30] <GeekSquid> sky1: sounds good in theory, I only use linux on my personal computers, some of my servers are windows, out of necessity & what the boss wanted, just shutdown windows properly everytime and you should be good
[21:30] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: about the vm i mean
[21:30] <patdk-wk> heh, I would defently use esxi on headless
[21:30] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: uhmm
[21:30] <patdk-wk> dunno why you would want to burden a hostos with it
[21:30] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: not really the best idea to give out email addresses in here
[21:30] <brad__> esxi is its own OS amirite?
[21:30] <patdk-wk> yep
[21:30] <onetinsoldier> brad__: roger. sounds like a good idea probably. you can see those postrm and postinst scripts in /var/lib/dpkg/info just to let you know
[21:31] <brad__> onetinsoldier: Ok, thanks for the help!
[21:31] <sky1> GeekSquid: yep that's theonly problem I see is the 'shutdown properly' but one should be doing that anyway :P, and I've used NTFS all the time on Ubuntu and it seems quite flawless as of late.
[21:31] <duffydack> Anyone elses rhythmbox cover art not displaying?
[21:31] <onetinsoldier> brad__: good luck. cheers :-)
[21:31] <duffydack> Playing some tracks, and there aint any covers being displayed.
[21:32] <mshadle> this is an existing linux box, esxi isn't an option
[21:32] <sky1> GeekSquid: alright thanks a lot for the affirmation, going to stick with the original plan to switch them to NTFS filesystems I think. Going to take a bit and I'll need to find a place to backup the 1.5TB :P but we'll see haha.
[21:32] <patdk-wk> mshadle sure it is :)
[21:32] <mshadle> it's not a burden either, it worked fine, except it's had pam 32bit issues as well as kernel upgrades being incompatible. that's about it.
[21:32] <patdk-wk> install esxi on usb drive, boot usb drive, use vm-passthough on the harddrive controller
[21:33] <patdk-wk> host os will boot like nothing happened it it inside esxi
[21:33] <emghazal> Yay! I finally managed to remove the envelope icon from the indicator applet (http://imagebin.org/96127). Apparently it's not exclusive to Evolution. I removed the 'indicator-messages' package and it disappeared. (I just thought other people might want to know how I solved my problem)
[21:33] <Pirate_Hunter> is there any where I can find more info on the file common-passwords in lucid?
[21:33] <Loshki> sky1: no, you're right, ntfs is probably the way to go if you want to share between systems. There are ext3 drivers for windows but they're underused, and I wouldn't vouch for the stability. The main disadvantage of ntfs is that to do a proper file system check, you need to boot into windows. You can't do it from Ubuntu...
[21:33] <realmobile> Anyone have a clue why iPhone isnät stable on Ubuntu 10.04 connecting through bluetooth when it works just fine in 9.10? Anyone having the same issue connecting iPhone to Ubuntu 10.04?
[21:33] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: dpkg -S?
[21:34] <sebsebseb> emghazal: yes envelope icon and such is a bit sucky really, how come you wanted to remove though
[21:34] <sky1> Loshki: ah okay, that shouldn't be to much of a problem. I will probably be switchingt alot between the two since I like ubuntu but I also play a lot of PC games which require windows (and I feel much better about that then trying to use wine or something).
[21:34] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib, I mean the current structure, it is split into four parts I wish to alter it so that it remembers user passwords and stop them from reusing them, however I am finding it confusing
[21:35] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: I don't anything about it, read the documentation for the package it belongs to?
[21:35] <seryl> Does anyone have suggestions on installing ubuntu with nvidia raid controller? (can't seem to select sda/sdb for the install) It only wants to see the mapper, and in the bios raid is disabled.
[21:36] <emghazal> sebsebseb: I use gmail for email, I do not use any IM or social networking, I rarely use IRC, and I really have no use for it. Plus, I wanted to free up some space in the panel.
[21:36] <sebsebseb> emghazal: well in that case
[21:36] <pup> I remember that mysql databases have usernames and psswords. how do I gemine when I set it up.
[21:36] <sky1> emghazal: oh cool I think I might have to do that myself. Thanks :)
[21:36] <pup> Sorry. *get mine
[21:37] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib, easier said than done will start by backing up the file than will attempt editing it based on previous experience
[21:37] <sebsebseb> emghazal: have you removed their edited fast user account switcher on the top right as well?  you know for shutting down  and it's linked to the me menu as well
[21:37] <seryl> pup: mysql -uroot
[21:37] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: I don't see how that's easier than reading documentation, but ok
[21:37] <pup> thank yu.
[21:37] <pup> *you
[21:37] <seryl> pup: and then create your databae, and grant your privileges
[21:37] <pup> Sorry, I have two keyboards, and one has nonworking keys.
[21:37] <seryl> pup: if you have questions consult the mysql wiki
[21:37] <seryl> pup: it's pretty straightforward
[21:37] <fax> any ideas about getting ubuntu to work on the mac? (Installing seemed to work but it wont boot)
[21:38] <jrib> fax: what does "it wont boot" mean?
[21:38] <seryl> fax: and why are you installing a linux distro on mac?
[21:38] <sebsebseb> emghazal: if so you will get shut down and log out back in the system menu, where they should be really, and are in other Gnome 2 based distro's since that's how upstream does it.  Plus you'll have that nice upstream Gnome automatic shut down after a minute if untouched, after telling it to shut down, feature back :)
[21:38] <fax> well it just goes black screen
[21:38] <jrib> seryl: why not...?
[21:38] <fax> seryl I want to use ubuntu 10.4
[21:38] <emghazal> sebsebseb: ooh, good idea, didn't think of removing it. But now I will. Thanks.
[21:38] <jrib> fax: do you get to grub?
[21:38] <fax> jrib no there is no grub
[21:38] <seryl> fax: seems silly imo if you already have a good working terminal and most of the unix utilities.
[21:38] <linux_is_my_hero> I have ubuntu 9.10 and i wanna upgrade to 10.4 and it doesnt think theres an upgrade (my upgrade manager). wht?
[21:38] <linux_is_my_hero> *why?
[21:39] <jrib> seryl: well it's not free software for one
[21:39] <sebsebseb> emghazal: you can also put the icons back in the system menu,  in gconf editor
[21:39] <RobHu> How do I enable the onscreen keyboard in UNR 9.10?
[21:39] <jrib> fax: what type of mac is this?
[21:39] <fax> it's a mac pro
[21:39] <jrib> fax: it's not ppc, right?
[21:39] <fax> there's a page about them on the wiki but I tried what it said without sucess
[21:39] <RobHu> I would have thought it'd be in assistive technologies, but AFAICT it's not
[21:39] <seryl> linux_is_my_hero: vi /etc/up-date-manager/release-upgrades
[21:39] <fax> no it's intel, so I used the AMD 64 and the install CD booted fine
[21:39] <seryl> change Prompt=lts
[21:40] <sebsebseb> emghazal: nice little tutoral screenshot you linked to by the way.
[21:40] <seryl> linux_is_my_hero: and the after you save, do-release-upgrade
[21:40] <jrib> fax: are you using refit?
[21:40] <fax> jrib, yeah
[21:40] <jrib> fax: do you get to refit alright?
[21:40] <sebsebseb> emghazal: what about Ubuntu One,  going to remove that as well?
[21:40] <madi> is there anybody from POland??
[21:40] <fax> I choose linux with refit but then it just goes to a black screen and nothing happens for 10 mins or more
[21:40] <linux_is_my_hero> seryl: what does "vi" do?
[21:40] <madi> POLAND
[21:40] <RomD> linux_is_my_hero: try "update-manager -d"
[21:40] <GeekSquid> !po | madi
[21:40] <seryl> linux_is_my_hero: maybe you should nano.
[21:40] <sebsebseb> !pl | madi
[21:41] <emghazal> sebsebseb: oh, that image was a description of my problem.
[21:41] <madi> hehehe
[21:41] <Buds> Has there been a fix for the slow boot problem with udisk?? I cannot disable floppy drive as macbooks have no bios...
[21:41] <jrib> fax: hmm, try following ubottu to reinstall grub to the partition you installed ubuntu to
[21:41] <sebsebseb> emghazal: oh right yeah, but it looks like a sort of tutoral as well, how to remove it
[21:41] <jrib> !grub2 > fax
[21:41] <fax> alright ill try that out thanks for the suggestion
[21:41] <fax> by the way that says Karmic but does that not matter?
[21:42] <fax> I want to use 10.4
[21:42] <jrib> fax: yeah, karmic also used grub2, should be the same instructions
[21:42] <fax> okay cool
[21:42] <sebsebseb> emghazal: what about theme?  personally i'll use  human clear looks, with Gnome icons,  so the version before 9.10 as well.
[21:42] <emghazal> sebsebseb: it doesn't remove the icon. removing 'indicator-messages' package does.
[21:42] <sebsebseb> emghazal: yes
[21:42] <linux_is_my_hero> that worked, thanks guys havea great afternoon :-)
[21:42] <sebsebseb> emghazal: or if you remove  for example evolution
[21:42] <sebsebseb> emghazal: it would not mention in the envelope about setting up an evolution account
[21:43] <Sereph> I'm installing 10.04 and it wants to knwo if the system clock is set to UTC what if i say yes and am wrong?
[21:43] <Buds> Anyone had success fixing the slow boot time without disabling floppy drive??
[21:43] <sebsebseb> emghazal: just like if Ubuntu One is removed,  the me menu, won't mention it
[21:43] <Lcawte> Can someone give me an example cron comand line to run a svn sync every hour?
[21:43] <jrib> !cron > Lcawte
[21:43] <emghazal> sebsebseb: I love the unmodified Clearlooks theme, with the gray folder icons and all.
[21:43] <arvernes> hi, each time I want to mount a local nfs volume, i have the following message:mount.nfs: rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking.
[21:43] <arvernes> mount.nfs: Either use '-o nolock' to keep locks local, or start statd.
[21:43] <Lcawte> or just a cron line with an example using svn :P
[21:44] <emghazal> sebsebseb: I never thought about Ubuntu One, but I think I'll remove it now.
[21:44] <sebsebseb> emghazal: yes they have a slightly later verison of human now as well, that has the grey ubuntu logo icon
[21:44] <sebsebseb> emghazal: heh in a way at removing most of the  default 10.04 stuff
[21:44] <sebsebseb> emghazal: maybe you should change to KDM whilst your at it as well from GDM 2 (assuming your using that)  it looks nicer
[21:44] <w3l54666_> hey guys i need to know how to black list drivers
[21:45] <jrib> !away > radar3d|afk
[21:45] <perlsyntax> What is the safe place to downoad ubuntu 10.04 without get a rootkit in it?
[21:45] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: the offical website
[21:45] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: or uhmm offical mirrors
[21:45] <jrib> perlsyntax: anywhere, just check the md5sum on the official site...
[21:45] <sebsebseb> !ubuntu | perlsyntax
[21:45] <perlsyntax> i try that i had the same prob.
[21:46] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib, it aint, however, I should've said while using the man pages
[21:46] <inktri> what options do i use with "tex" to convert my file into a pdf?
[21:46] <inktri> my .tex file into a .pfd
[21:46] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: ok, what man page covers it out of curiousity?
[21:46] <perlsyntax> sebsebseb,Where you download it from?
[21:46] <emghazal> sebsebseb: I don't mind gdm.
[21:46] <jrib> inktri: most people use pdflatex
[21:46] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: go to ubuntu.com
[21:46] <sebsebseb> ubuntu.com
[21:47] <jrib> inktri: if it's really tex, maybe you want pdftex
[21:47] <inktri> jrib: ok i'll try it out
[21:47] <perlsyntax> i went there and donload it still have the same prob.
[21:47] <AndyR> good evening all
[21:47] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib, pam.d at least that is where I expect to find the info needed
[21:47] <jrib> perlsyntax: most people don't know what you mean by "same problem"
[21:47] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: oh, pam... good luck
[21:48] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib, :s
[21:48] <litropy> hi, peeps. How do I find out what port I'm broadcasting on?
[21:48] <perlsyntax> i get the same rootkit in it or i get a black sceen after load the livecd.I have no prob with 9.10.
[21:48] <AndyR> anyone else have a problem with 10.04 nbr not asking for a password on startup?
[21:48] <litropy> Should be a command that prints a readout of all ports in use, right?
[21:48] <arvernes> hey, I have a pb with nfs. Each time i want to mount a local nfs volume, I have the following message : mount.nfs: rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking. mount.nfs: Either use '-o nolock' to keep locks local, or start statd. Is there a way to fix that?
[21:48] <distant_voice> When trying to mount a CD, this comes up:
[21:48] <perlsyntax> Maybe i should try a differnt mirror then.
[21:49] <Pirate_Hunter> litropy, straight out of my head netstat -tulpn might work for you
[21:49] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: a rootkit inside an Ubuntu ISO from offical sources, highly unlikely
[21:49] <distant_voice> When trying to mount CDs this comes up mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr0,        missing codepage or helper program, or other error        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try        dmesg | tail  or so
[21:49] <distant_voice> can somebody help?
[21:49] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: where you getting this, I got a rootkit idea from, anyway
[21:49] <Pirate_Hunter> litropy, what exactly do you wish to find out?
[21:49] <perlsyntax> i did a check on it before i try install it.
[21:50] <perlsyntax> ok
[21:50] <Pirate_Hunter> perlsyntax, I agree with sebsebseb
[21:50] <perlsyntax> it can't be hardware prob.
[21:50] <linux_is_my_hero> i wanna set up win xp pro x64 on a virtual box anyone wanna help?
[21:50] <roberto__> having trouble installing ruby gnome2 on ubuntu with ruby1.9.1 http://pastebin.org/211135 -- here's a log
[21:50] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: of course
[21:50] <perlsyntax> i have no prob with ubuntu 9.10
[21:50] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: got a CD for that?
[21:51] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: just, because your ISO is currupt
[21:51] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb yes
[21:51] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: does not mean it has a rootkit or something like that inside it
[21:51] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: legitmate copy of windows, bought it
[21:51] <perlsyntax> ok!
[21:51] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: ok this is easy then
[21:51] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: however your also on a 64bit computer right now?
[21:51] <Loshki> perlsyntax: the official repositories are so heavily used, that any problems with the software would generally be discovered and reported extremely quickly. The risk is extremely low...
[21:51] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: yes
[21:51] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: you have 64bit Ubuntu installed?
[21:52] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: yes, 10.4 just upgraded
[21:52] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: if your ISO is bad,  it will be, because of a bad download
[21:52] <perlsyntax> i see
[21:52] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: hence why you can md5sum, sha1sum and sha2sum or whatever that other one is, to check that you have a good ISO
[21:52] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: your on Windows at the moment?
[21:52] <muffin2> Hi
[21:52] <perlsyntax> no i m on ubuntu 9.10
[21:53] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero:  well you just want it for netflix the vm I guess?  so  having USB support in it, doesn't  really matter?
[21:53] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: ok perfect
[21:53] <muffin2> My X1250 laptop graphic card hangs when I boot plymouth with KMS on.
[21:53] <muffin2> i have to disable KMS .
[21:53] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: you can run all three checks if you want, once you have downloaded the ISO for Ubuntu
[21:53] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: and easilly in the terminal
[21:53] <muffin2> plymouth sucks
[21:53] <sebsebseb> perlsyntax: also if your on 9.10, you could just upgrade it to 10.04
[21:53] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: what would prevent it from running just like regular windows?
[21:53] <perlsyntax> thay be the easy way
[21:53] <perlsyntax> :)
[21:53] <sebsebseb> muffin2: which graphics card? and  propritary nivida or ati drivers, and yep issues
[21:53] <MichaelKohler> isn't there a program which can set the resolution/size of a pdf file?
[21:53] <RegressLess> Can someone tell me how to edit the OS order in the grub boot manager? Ubuntu 10.04
[21:54] <wk_exeon> how do i get intel hdmi to work on 10.04
[21:54] <perlsyntax> i try that
[21:54] <pun84>  [16:19] <Vigo> pun84: Do you know how to get into BIOS on that box?
[21:54] <noir_lord> MichaelKohler, what are you trying to do?
[21:54] <sclytrack_atom> the new grub, dunno how it works
[21:54] <pun84> yes Vigo, but what do i need to do with it?
[21:54] <muffin2> sebsebseb : It's ati X1250. and it has no more proprietary support.
[21:54] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: there are two versions of Virtualbox,  both free as in price, however one is  open source that lacks USB support, because I think legally they aren't alloweed in the open source version
[21:54] <noir_lord> Ghoscript will allow you render a PDF file to 1 of about 20 different image formats at an arbitrary resolution
[21:54] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: where as the other is closed source, and has it
[21:54] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: the one you can really easilly install from the Ubuntu repo, is the open source version
[21:54] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: lets go with that one
[21:54] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: the other you can get from them
[21:55] <zylogz80> When I scroll down a menu with more items than can appear on the screen (system > administration for example) the cursor jumps back up automatically so I cannot click on some of the items. Anyone have the same issue? Know of a fix?
[21:55] <MichaelKohler> noir_lord: I have scanned a document (it's a pdf now) and now I need to make it smaller so all pages (pdfs I join with pdftk) are the same size
[21:55] <muffin2> sebsebseb : what do you want to say about this?
[21:55] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose
[21:55] <sebsebseb> !info virtualbox-ose
[21:55] <noir_lord> MichaelKohler, so the pdf's you are joining have different page sizes set in the PDF rather than been scanned at different sizes?
[21:56] <aaron-n-nikki> I've restarted my computer several times. I cant get it to stop doing whatever its doing. The light on the front stays on constantly and computer is moving slow???/
[21:56] <MichaelKohler> noir_lord: I don't now.. I can upload the pdf if you want to see it
[21:56] <sebsebseb> muffin2: basically if you have Plymouth
[21:56] <sebsebseb> muffin2: and a propritary Nivida or ATI driver, you will probably get right boot up issues
[21:56] <muffin2> sebsebseb : ubuntu lucid is shipped with plymouth
[21:56] <Rig> Anyone knows if it's possible to use a USB audio interface for playing instruments (namely guitar/bass) natively on linux through open drivers or do I have to reboot in Windows everytime I feel like playing on PC? :(
[21:56] <sebsebseb> muffin2: yes
[21:57] <sebsebseb> muffin2: and it does not work well with propritary Nivida and ATI drivers,  maybe not all of them, but a lot of them yes
[21:57] <muffin2> sebsebseb : does X125 have a proprietary driver?
[21:57] <muffin2> X1250
[21:57] <sebsebseb> muffin2: probably
[21:57] <sebsebseb> muffin2: see if you got something under system > administration > hardware drivers
[21:57] <sebsebseb> muffin2: also
[21:57] <muffin2> Recent proprietary drivers don't support X1250
[21:57] <sebsebseb> !ati | muffin2
[21:57] <EagleWatch> did anyone used geoip module with php? I don't know what is wrong with my data base
[21:57] <sebsebseb> muffin2: ok well I don't know about that card
[21:58] <muffin2> sebsebseb : fglrx doesn't work for my work
[21:58] <wk_exeon> how do i get intel hdmi 2 work if u can help pm me plz
[21:58] <muffin2> sebsebseb : I'm stuck.
[21:58] <sebsebseb> muffin2: you can disable plymouth if you want to
[21:58] <sebsebseb> muffin2: and have only a text boot
[21:59] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: the terminal is done. now what?
[21:59] <muffin2> sebsebseb : how? I also need to disable KMS.
[21:59] <sebsebseb> muffin2: thanks again rww for telling me how to disable it
[21:59] <sebsebseb> muffin2: whoops wasn't meant to send that to you
[22:00] <CQ> what's the diff in /etc/fstab/ between defaults 0 0 and defaults 0 2??
[22:00] <pun84> My install wont load after I just got a power outage, on boot up it is  saying "The disc drive for / is not ready yet or not present"  " Continue to wait: or press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery" what can i do??
[22:00] <sebsebseb> muffin2: be clear, it's a boot up issue, that's all, or?
[22:00] <CQ> I can't find it in the mount or fstab man pages
[22:00] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: open it
[22:00] <SirRedTooth> After installing lucid lynx my windows partition doesn't work anymore. What can I do to solve this?
[22:00] <sebsebseb> !details | SirRedTooth
[22:00] <SirRedTooth> The windows partition still has data allocated to it and is still using data
[22:01] <SirRedTooth> But when I try to load it from grub, blank screen
[22:01] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: im going through the wizaqrd right now. how much ram does linux need?i have about 3.6gb so how much should i give to windows?
[22:01] <SirRedTooth> Lucid Lynx works fine
[22:01] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: try with the default amount to begin with, if that's slow,  that's something that can be changed later
[22:01] <Buds> Anyone had success fixing the slow boot time in 10.04 without disabling floppy drive??
[22:01] <muffin2> sebsebseb : It's KMS issue.
[22:01] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: also make sure you do dyanmically expanding hard disk
[22:01] <sebsebseb> muffin2: I am still not actsaully that sure what KMS is, to be honest
[22:02] <aaron-n-nikki> system monitor not showing any processes running but light stays on. Someone help me???
[22:02] <muffin2> sebsebseb : kernel modeset. and modeset is a way to set resolution.
[22:02] <muffin2> kernel screen resolution setting
[22:02] <muffin2> resolution and depth
[22:02] <muffin2> I don't know further
[22:02] <sebsebseb> muffin2: well you can try with just  just a text boot I guess
[22:02] <sebsebseb> muffin2: is thsi correct, plymouth won't show properly?
[22:02] <Loshki> CQ: the 5th field isn't used except by the dump program. The 6th field is used during booting to decide in which order the filesystems get checked....
[22:02] <muffin2> sebsebseb : It never shows.
[22:03] <sebsebseb> muffin2: ok
[22:03] <sebsebseb> muffin2: text boot for you then
[22:03] <CQ> Loshki: what should the 6th field be for /tmp ?
[22:03] <muffin2> sebsebseb : I'm sad.
[22:03] <eipi-1> my xserver recently stopped working without any reason for me. only hint in /var/log/messages is "thinkpad_acpi: EC reports that Thermal Table has changed" a couple of times before it stops. i can not switch to tty via ctrl + F1. It might be a problem with virtualbox wich was running everytime this happens. Any hints?
[22:03] <anigma_> !server | anigma_'
[22:03] <anigma_> !server | anigma_
[22:03] <sebsebseb> muffin2: hold on I saved, how to do text boot
[22:03] <sebsebseb> muffin2: let me find the file
[22:03] <AndyR> anyone else have a problem with 10.04 nbr not asking for a password on startup?
[22:04] <kblin> hi folks
[22:04] <Buds> Anyone had success fixing the slow boot time in 10.04 without disabling floppy drive??
[22:04] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: done, and installing from the cd. windows xp 64-bit.  ill let u know how it does. ;-)
[22:04] <muffin2> sebsebseb : I'm looking forward to
[22:04] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: do like 40GB  and dynamically expanding, when it comes to setting up the virtual hard disk
[22:04] <javie_> anyone having problems with 10.04 heating up laptop stays at aroun 75c
[22:04] <slek> kblin: hey
[22:04] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: it doesn't matter if you don't have that much free space on the actsaul partiton,  it's just space the vm thinks it has,  when it's dynamically expanding
[22:05] <linux_is_my_hero> wow, can i emulate mac also? :-)
[22:05] <Loshki> CQ: depends on where your /tmp comes from. Is it on its own partition, or is it tmpfs?
[22:05] <kblin> how do I get virt-manager to use a custom memory pool for my VMs?
[22:05] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: if you do the other option, it will take up, the amount of hard disk  space you said
[22:05] <linux_is_my_hero> i might go buy tiger just because id rather vm an os that i actually trust :-)
[22:05] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: no not legally on a PC
[22:05] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: well maybe actsauly if you bought Mac OS X
[22:06] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: however really Mac OS X is for a Mac, and that's that
[22:06] <javie_> anyone having problems with 10.04 heating up laptop stays at around 75c?
[22:06] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: how come macs dont come with a lot of vram or ram? do they not need it?
[22:06] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: also on a PC it won't run as well at the moment
[22:06] <Ttech> Whats up with Ubuntu and dual screens why does Xorg not support 1280x1024?
[22:06] <Ttech> How do I get that resolution?
[22:06] <CQ> Loshki: it's a separate partition encrypted ... see http://blog.larsstrand.org/article.php?story=EncryptedSwapAndHomeUbuntu
[22:06] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: I don't know,  also screw Mac,  Apple are not open source friendly
[22:07] <tallmtt> Hi.  I have been trying to use Xmodmap to change mouse button press to a keycode.  Anyone know how to do this?  All my mouse buttons are recognized on xev, but I need some of them to represent, say "F1" or "shift"
[22:07] <muffin2> I think ubuntu should release no KMS version without plymouth!!!!!!
[22:07] <edbian> Anyone have any experience with a bcm4318 on 10.04  ??
[22:07] <muffin2> Linux in general is too experimental
[22:07] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: they basically take a load of it, put lip stick on it, and sell it.  oh and then also patent sue  open source companies, like they did with that phone company not that long ago.  However this is off topic
[22:07] <edbian> I can't get mine to work.
[22:07] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: yeah, i did my research i picked linux because its the best and its free and runs on anything :-)
[22:07] <airtonix> Ttech, /shrug im able to go any resi want... however i am using nvidia binary drivers
[22:08] <Buds> Anyone had success fixing the slow boot time in 10.04 without disabling floppy drive??
[22:08] <Ttech> airtonix, SO am I but on my second montior it only supports 1024x800 (Which is not the default resolution)
[22:08] <airtonix> Ttech, i also noticed when booting my netbook off the usbdrive that lucid would let me do dual screen by default at any angle i wanted
[22:08] <Loshki> CQ: I'm actually not sure about the order of checking of encrypted systems. If it were an ordinary system, I would use a 1 to have it be checked on pass 1 i.e. just after the root filesystem gets checked...
[22:08] <cached> why do i not have to enter a password when i turn my computer on?
[22:09] <sebsebseb> muffin2: ok to get text boot
[22:09] <Ttech> airtonix, Well I'm missing half myu resolutions now that I useed the nvidia drivers
[22:09] <sebsebseb> muffin2: remove plymouth-label, plymouth-theme-ubuntu-{logo,text}, and plymouth-x11; then remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and do sudo update-grub
[22:09] <airtonix> Ttech, how do you configure it ? with the nvidia-settings gui ?
[22:09] <Polemus1> i get an error while trying to run k3b... it says it has no permissions to access device
[22:09] <noir_lord> Ttech, I had a similar issue with Ubuntu 9.10, check xorg.conf and ensure the HorizRange is valid
[22:09] <Ttech> airtonix, Yes. But it doen't offer extra
[22:09] <muffin2> sebsebseb : splash is fine
[22:09] <Ttech> noir_lord, But it worked before I used the nvidia drivers
[22:09] <bodom> cached: you can change that on settings
[22:10] <jason__> can anyone help me with this?
[22:10] <airtonix> Ttech, do you run nvidia-settings as root or just normal user ?
[22:10] <edbian> Looking for help with a bcm4318.  Any suggestions for what package to install?
[22:10] <muffin2> sebsebseb : I would replace plymouth for usplash
[22:10] <Ttech> airtonix, Normal user
[22:10] <bodom> cached: btw, having your PC protected by a password is a good thing IMHO
[22:10] <sebsebseb> muffin2:  you said Plymouth doesn't even boot up or something?
[22:10] <jason__> this comes up when i try and install programs via software center
[22:10] <jason__> The installation could have failed because of an error in the corresponding software package or it was cancelled in an unfriendly way. You have to repair this before you can install or remove any further software.
[22:10] <noir_lord> Ttech, it works fine for me in 10.04 but not in 9.10, it took me hours to figure out it was the HorizRange setting in xorg.conf that was out of whack (it didnt show on any forums)
[22:10] <airtonix> Ttech, same here
[22:10] <CQ> Loshki: /tmp is taking long to mount and blocking the boot process... could be that /dev/random runs out of entropy and blocks... guess I can use urandom instead as a try
[22:10] <muffin2> sebsebseb : usplash is an alternative
[22:10] <sebsebseb> muffin2: there's xsplash in the 10.04 repo,  but I don't know how to get it using xsplash instead
[22:10] <Ttech> noir_lord, So how would I figure out what it should be or need to be?
[22:11] <noir_lord> Ttech, in my case I downloaded the manual for the monitor and it was in the system specs
[22:11] <muffin2> sebsebseb : Man, xsplash is not related to plymouth.
[22:11] <cached> how do i get ubuntu to ask me to log in when i turn my computer on?
[22:11] <sebsebseb> muffin2: indeed
[22:11] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: so does it actually take the 10gb of my hdd and make it ntfs or just think it does?
[22:11] <sebsebseb> muffin2: except for how it's something you could use instead
[22:11] <pun84> Can VHCS2 be installed on Lucid Lynx ?
[22:11] <Ttech> noir_lord, Haha I just thew out my manual. I'll look though
[22:11] <New0bo> Firefox is extremely slow when browsing but downloads stuff and normal speed, is there something that could be effecting the way it loads pages?
[22:11] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: how much space did you give that vm?
[22:11] <noir_lord> Ttech, if its a flat panel you could just set it to a higher value and see if that fits, unlike a CRT you (in theory) should not be able to damage the monitor with out of mode settings
[22:11] <Loshki> CQ: sorry, I don't encrypt filesystems, only selected files. You need more expert help that I can give...
[22:11] <muffin2> sebsebseb : usplash is something I need to use instead.
[22:12] <Loshki> CQ: that -> than
[22:12] <cached> err, ignore my last question. pidgin was acting weird and i didnt see any messages referred to me
[22:12] <Ttech> noir_lord, The larger resolution makes it (odly) work / look worse.
[22:12] <sebsebseb> muffin2: so install it or something?
[22:12] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: how much space did you give the vm?
[22:12] <cached> bodom: thanks =)
[22:12] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: 10GB is not a good size, even if it is a dyanmiclly expanding vm
[22:12] <muffin2> sebsebseb : I just figured out how to install lucid, but I hesitate.
[22:12] <Buds> Anyone had success fixing the slow boot time in 10.04 without disabling floppy drive??
[22:12] <bodom> cached: you'r welcome
[22:12] <muffin2> It's a hassle
[22:13] <linux_is_my_hero> sebsebseb: can i change it?
[22:13] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: hence why I recommend 40GB and dynamically expanding
[22:13] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: only by starting over
[22:13] <noir_lord> Ttech, I don't blame linux for it though since that system the only way to get windows to display the native resolution with the nvidia driver was to switch the monitor off while installing the driver then reboot and switch the monitor on...
[22:13] <Polemus1> anyone here knows k3b?
[22:13] <sebsebseb> linux_is_my_hero: as far as I know, or there may be some complex other way to do it
[22:13] <sebsebseb> Polemus1: yes
[22:13] <pun84> can anyone help me with my bootup problem?
[22:13] <realmobile> Amnyone know something about MSI wind u160 USB bluetooth connection problem?
[22:13] <realmobile> *Anyone
[22:13] <sebsebseb> Buds: slow boot time?  what's that got to do with floppy discs?
[22:13] <sebsebseb> !details | pun84
[22:14] <Polemus1> sebsebseb: i get an error: "cdrecord returned an unknown error....... sometimes using TAO writing mode solves the problem"
[22:14] <sebsebseb> Polemus1: not sure, you could use brasero instead for example.  also  good idea to try #kubuntu for k3b help, since it's a KDE app
[22:15] <Polemus1> sebsebseb: thanx
[22:16] <Buds> sebsebseb: its a known bug that causes the udisk-daemon to delay after login, caused by not having floppy disabled in bios.
[22:16] <vasiph> hi All
[22:16] <pun84> Using Lucid Lynx:::: 10.04 -- On bootup I am getting the problem saying:::   The disk drive for / is not ready yet or not present   Continue to wait: or press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery
[22:16] <vasiph> I am from Azerbaijan!
[22:16] <Buds> sebsebseb: but i need an alternate fix becuase im on a macbook and have no bios
[22:16] <sebsebseb> Buds: oh ok, so disable it in BIOS?
[22:16] <winXPuser> pun84: M
[22:16] <sebsebseb> Buds: oh well I don't know
[22:16] <pun84> I hit M, tried FSCK
[22:16] <pun84> didnt help
[22:17] <pun84> is there anyhting else i can try?
[22:17] <winXPuser> >.<
[22:17] <tallmtt> Do I need xbindkeys to make a mouse button press be like a keyboard press (ie back arrow = F1)
[22:17] <sebsebseb> pun84: a bit odd, but yes you need / mounted
[22:17] <winXPuser> pun84- clean reinstall?

[22:18] <ClayReiche> I want it to run during boot and the script has a prompt for input, but the boot just blows past it
[22:18] <ManDay> Is there a configuration file for GNOME-TERMINAL in which i can set the default startup geometry?
[22:18] <winXPuser> vasiph, hi! this is support channel, for offtopic feel free to join #ubuntu-offtopic; or if you need some other language support, tell what language you want it in
[22:18] <freezway> ed1703, hook it up to ethernet and open the hardware drivers thing

[22:20] <jose__> hey guys Im getting the following error with PHP after having updated to 10.04: PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php5/20090626/apc.so' - /usr/lib/php5/20090626/apc.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0
[22:20] <jose__> any suggestions
[22:20] <LinuxGuy2009> Is there a file I can cut/paste in to rearrange the ubuntu netbook launchers instead of removing them all and adding them all back?
[22:20] <sebsebseb> LinuxGuy2009: panels?
[22:21] <bodom> jose__: do you need this library?
[22:21] <CloudMonkee> wow, anyone know why ubuntu 10.04 sucks and is so buggy?
[22:21] <LinuxGuy2009> No the main netbook interface for favorites.
[22:21] <sebsebseb> CloudMonkee: that depends on the hardware
[22:21] <sebsebseb> CloudMonkee: plus other things
[22:21] <acicula> alaa_, add it to the kernel line in menu.lst or /etc/default/grub
[22:21] <bodom> jose__: if now, just disable loading :)
[22:21] <sebsebseb> !details | CloudMonkee
[22:21] <maco> CloudMonkee: not enough testers early in the development cycle and not enough developers to fix the bugs that are found. and /that/ is why you should help test alpha releases of ubuntu and get involved!
[22:22] <airtonix> ^
[22:22] <jose__> bodom: I dont think that I need it ... What does it do?
[22:22] <sebsebseb> CloudMonkee: maco 's response to that is much better
[22:22] <CloudMonkee> sebsebseb, no, it's all about software for this problem.... the window manger keeps crashing. the top rectanglebox that controls how to move & manipulate them at the top have dissapeared.
[22:22] <LinuxGuy2009> I agree with maco, not enough testers.
[22:22] <alaa_> acicula: I open /etc/default/grub and I find it empty
[22:22] <jose__> bodom: How would I disable loading?
[22:22] <acicula> alaa_, so use menu.lst
[22:22] <CloudMonkee> maco, i would love to do that... how do I start
[22:23] <acicula> CloudMonkee, start a console and start metacity --replace and when it crashes copy paste the output from that console to pastebin
[22:23] <bodom> jose__: what it does: http://php.net/manual/en/book.apc.php
[22:23] <sebsebseb> CloudMonkee: the window controls?
[22:23] <LinuxGuy2009> Ok Ill see if google is any help I guess.
[22:23] <maco> LinuxGuy2009: too many people refuse to help debug their problem until beta (or even final!) is reached, which means they basically assume we're all psychic
[22:23] <tishensnoopy> in which aspect
[22:23] <ManDay> Is there a configuration file for GNOME-TERMINAL in which i can set the default startup geometry?
[22:23] <CloudMonkee> pastebin?
[22:23] <acicula> ManDay, i think you can pass it as a command line option
[22:23] <Jon-> I am trying to configure either VLC (http interface with wget) or mdb with mpc so I can bind a key at the top of my laptop to pause / next track / play, etc globally. I have been trying for a couple days now and getting really frustrated. Need a more experienced users assistance please.
[22:24] <maco> CloudMonkee: well the first alpha for 10.10 is due out the first week of june. you can set up a vm on your system using virtualbox and keep trying things out in there to make sure they work
[22:24] <sebsebseb> CloudMonkee: and if you can program, you can actsauly help fix bugs
[22:24] <LinuxGuy2009> maco: I actually did my part with Lucid and reporting the bugs I did find. Least I tried on this one. hehe
[22:24] <Polemus1> i get an error: "cdrecord returned an unknown error....... sometimes using TAO writing mode solves the problem" ... when i try to write a dvd using k3b

[22:24] <vasiph> E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[22:24] <vasiph> E: Unable to lock the download directory
[22:24] <maco> CloudMonkee: you can also get involved with bugsquad and help debug other people's bugs so the developers can fix them
[22:24] <Drokles> Hey guys. Absolute newbie here using 9.10. My audio is really noisy, I've set Analog Surround 5.1 output as my sound device, but it the sound comes out lagging and skipping. I'm pretty sure it should be Analog Surround 5.1. Any help would be great :D
[22:24] <awaad> What is the best way to make a distributable CD or DVD of my customized Ubuntu 10.04 ?
[22:24] <maco> CloudMonkee: and if you can code, you can help write those fixes
[22:24] <bodom> jose__: look into 7etc/php5/conf.d/ folder, you should have an apc.ini file
[22:24] <vasiph> how can i write Adobe Flash?
[22:24] <maco> vasiph: got a synaptic or update manager window open? close it
[22:25] <maco> vasiph: that error is what you get when two instally/updatey things run at the same time
[22:25] <Jon-> vasiph: Try sudo killall synaptic and try again
[22:25] <jose__> bodom: Do I simply comment it with a ";"
[22:25] <slek> Hello, who would like to develop a 'teacher' program with me for Ubuntu. With this program you should be able to study word combinations. KDE has a program like this: parley. There is another dead open-source alternative: openteacher.
[22:25] <bodom> jose__: edit this file and comment out all lines
[22:25] <CloudMonkee> maco: i can code... c++ & java. but i only know basics... How would i possibly help?
[22:25] <acicula> awaad, there is a page about that on the ubuntu wiki, automated or customizing ubuntu install cd on google'll probably find it
[22:25] <Jon-> slek: Language?
[22:25] <bodom> jose__: yep, hten restart apache
[22:25] <jose__> bodom: yay! solved thnx
[22:25] <maco> slek: is there something wrong with parley?
[22:25] <bodom> jose__: np
[22:25] <slek> I would like to program in Python. There's no other language I know.
[22:25] <Jon-> I am trying to configure either VLC (http interface with wget) or mdb with mpc so I can bind a key at the top of my laptop to pause / next track / play, etc globally.

[22:26] <Flannel> awaad, acicula: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[22:26] <maco> CloudMonkee: i started contributing C code when i only knew basics too. there are plenty of bitesize bugs that are good for people who are new the codebase
[22:26] <ManDay> acicula, yep I know, Im looking for a default configuration tho because gnome-terminal is started from different places and I dont/cant specifiy CLAs everywhere
[22:26] <alaa_> acicula: I don't find a line starting with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=, I will add it
[22:26] <slek> maco: I have not looked at parley very much, but the first impression I got was that it was too complicated.
[22:26] <acicula> ManDay, well it uses profiles, i dont know if you can set it there
[22:26] <CloudMonkee> maco: can you point me into the direction of doing this? do you have an msn?
[22:27] <ManDay> acicula, hm
[22:27] <acicula> alaa_, that may pertain to grub2 configuration, you may still be using grub1
[22:27] <maco> slek: its for foreign language study mostly. was there a slightly different focus you want?
[22:27] <Jon-> I am trying to configure either VLC (http interface with wget) or mdb with mpc so I can bind a key at the top of my laptop to pause / next track / play, etc globally.

[22:27] <ClayReiche> I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 and need to have an ineractive perl script run at boot. I have the script successfully running from rc.local (I know this because my perl script prints some stuff to a log file), but, the script never interactively prompts for user input. What do I have to do to get rc.local to run interactively?
[22:27] <maco> CloudMonkee: i dont have msn, but im grabbing you a link
[22:27] <ManDay> acicula, not in the profile-editor at least
[22:27] <ManDay> acicula, you know where the profiels are stored?
[22:27] <ManDay> gconf again?
[22:27] <pun84> winXPuser my only option is clean install?? :(
[22:27] <acicula> ManDay, .gnome somewhere i suppose
[22:27] <detrate> does anyone here know about configuring touchscreens in ubuntu?  I see videos on youtube without explanations.  Mine has very limited support. I can only single click
[22:27] <bodom> maco: the main poblem fo a novice code contributor is imho that it takes hours to find the right file/line to do a small bug fix
[22:28] <slek> maco: Well, I haven't thought of that much. But an option is of course making parley more attractive to a GTK environment.
[22:28] <alaa_> acicula, I just updated from 9.04 to 9.10, so I think yes. How to switch to Grub 2?
[22:28] <vasiph> ok thanks
[22:28] <sebsebseb> alaa_: you don't need GRub 2
[22:28] <sebsebseb> alaa_: old one is actsaully better in certain ways :)
[22:28] <Jon-> I am trying to configure either VLC (http interface with wget) or mdb with mpc so I can bind a key at the top of my laptop to pause / next track / play, etc globally.

[22:28] <alaa_> sebsebaeh,  I need Grub 2 to enable KMS
[22:28] <sebsebseb> alaa_: oh ok well in that case
[22:28] <sebsebseb> uhmm
[22:28] <ManDay> acicula, found them in gconf but there aint no geometry defaults not
[22:28] <sebsebseb> !grub2 | alaa_
[22:29] <maxdawidoff> off
[22:29] <slek> maco: Well, I haven't thought of that much. But an option is of course making parley more attractive to a GTK environment.
[22:29] <maco> bodom, CloudMonkee: there's also the Ubuntu Reviewers team. the team exists to go through existing patches attached bugs (1800-2000) and review the patch for 1) being able to apply 2) correctness 3) regression potential, then forward them upstream if they're good. if you can read & understand a bit of code, you could be very helpful there
[22:29] <winXPuser> pun84 said "Using Lucid Lynx:::: 10.04 -- On bootup I am getting the problem saying::: The disk drive for / is not ready yet or not present Continue to wait: or press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery.I hit M, tried FSCK. didnt help"
[22:29] <acicula> ManDay, then i dont know
[22:30] <maco> slek: it's part of kdeedu. as far as i know, gnome does not have an education suite. that's only something kde has focused on
[22:30] <acicula> ManDay, can always alias
[22:30] <ManDay> acicula, thanks tho
[22:30] <ClayReiche> Can anyone think of a better channel for my question?
[22:30] <ManDay> acicula, true, good idea
[22:30] <sebsebseb> bodom:  CloudMonkee  There were also two  getting invovled with Ubuntu Development sessions, as part of Open Week, on Friday,  Plus if you look at previous ones, there's similar stuff.
[22:30] <Jon-> I am trying to configure either VLC (http interface with wget) or mdb with mpc so I can bind a key at the top of my laptop to pause / next track / play, etc globally.

[22:30] <maco> bodom, CloudMonkee: if you're interested in the patch reviewing team, join #ubuntu-reviews
[22:31] <bodom> maco: ty
[22:31] <slek> maco: Maybe therefore, we could develop such a program for Gnome. I could send you some concept I already made.
[22:31] <awaad> acicula, Flannel: These explanation is not for Ubuntu 10.04
[22:31] <detrate> can I install ubuntu netbook remix through the repositories if I already have ubuntu installed?
[22:31] <maco> slek: i just know PyKDE ;-)
[22:31] <sebsebseb> bordom CloudMonkee  I suggest reading the logs in HTML format on http://irclogs.ubuntu.com ,but they are also on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOpenWeek
[22:32] <maco> slek: i also just wrote a language app for kde environment (not part of the kde project yet though), but mine is for sign language
[22:32] <awaad> acicula, Flannel: Is there any program that may automate this ?
[22:32] <Flannel> awaad: It should be the same (or at least very similar) process
[22:32] <daftykins> detrate: you can try installing ubuntu-netbook-remix
[22:32] <delac> howto force fsck on boot (on Karmic)? "sudo shutdown -F -r now" doesn't seem to work...
[22:33] <aguitel> how choose faster mirror with command line?
[22:33] <detrate> ahh :)
[22:33] <slek> maco: Nah, my program would just be a program to study foreign words. We could always include sign language too.
[22:33] <sebsebseb> aguitel: system > preferences > software sources
[22:33] <sebsebseb> aguitel: oh command line, nevermind
[22:33] <maco> slek: i think you may want to talk to gnome upstream about starting an education subproject similar to kdeedu
[22:34] <Ledzep> test
[22:34] <maco> Ledzep: fail?
[22:34] <aguitel> sebsebseb, with software sources say : not suitable sever found
[22:34] <anigma_> could I just extract everything from the iso image on to a usb stick and plug that in and install?
[22:34] <slek> mace: That is not my intention, my intention is to get an Ubuntu teacher program for GTK into the repo.
[22:34] <onetinsoldier> delac: i think you put a file named forcefsck on the filesystem you want checked... for exampled sudo touch /forcefsck
[22:34] <sebsebseb> aguitel: Which version of Ubuntu? Which country?
[22:34] <Ledzep> maco ok
[22:34] <VagaStorm> I have 2 computers with ubuntu on. both are suposed to sync evolution with horde using sync evolution, but I get only local rejections on one. on that computer I have an old user directory, which I tink might be the root of the problem. is it posible to recreate a blank calendar/adressbook and tasklist?
[22:35] <ozfalcon> Is there some problem with the ubuntu key servers?

[22:35] <Ledzep> I need some help with 10.04 install
[22:35] <sebsebseb> aguitel: by default it will probably be using the server for your country, which is useaully the best, but not always
[22:35] <sebsebseb> !details | Ledzep
[22:36] <delac> onetinsoldier: ok, I'll take a look about that. Thanks!
[22:36] <gebbione> hi has anybody here managed to get nginx running with php on their machines? pls PM me
[22:36] <sebsebseb> aguitel: also you should be able to set another server graphically, without issues

[22:41] <ClayReiche>  I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 and need to have an ineractive perl script run at boot. I have the script successfully running from rc.local (I know this because my perl script prints some stuff to a log file), but, the script never interactively prompts for user input. What do I have to do to get rc.local to run interactively?
[22:42] <ClayReiche> Or some better way to launch a perl script at boot

[22:43] <LinuxGuy2009> Just wanted to share a solution to re-aranging netbook edition favorite launchers. gconf-editor, apps, netbook-launcher. There is a list of launchers that are numbered starting at 0. You can check to see what each one is simply by reading it. Then there is a master list that you can double click and click the up or down arrow to rearrange the order. Logout, then log back in to see changes. Piece of cake.
[22:44] <tallmtt> anyone know if this will this work with xbindkeys: http://pastebin.org/211231
[22:44] <Ledzep> Can I use a Quickcam pro 9000 in 10.04
[22:44] <xXedixXx> I submitted a bug report about a week ago, and still not one reply!
[22:44] <daftykins> LinuxGuy2009: if that's not on the wiki / forum it might be worth posting?
[22:45] <LinuxGuy2009> daftykins: Where is the wiki?
[22:45] <daftykins> !wiki
[22:45] <LinuxGuy2009> thanks
[22:46] <jff40> hi
[22:47] <jff40> Hallo
[22:47] <onetinsoldier> !hi | jff40
[22:47] <Loshki> ClayReiche: it's unusual to run an *interactive* script at boot time. What's the script for?
[22:47] <LinuxGuy2009> Hmm maybe not. No idea where to add it.
[22:48] <Advent> how do you change the default operating system in grub2?

[22:48] <dominicdinada> Ok my File explorer in Lucid all of a sudden crashed... But I am in the middle of a large transfer over the network... How do I fix this problem
[22:49] <Cpudan80> Hey guys - I just installed a lamp server on 10.04 and it's offering to download PHP files rather than display the constents ...
[22:49] <Cpudan80> contents*
[22:49] <Cpudan80> Any ideas why?
[22:49] <dominicdinada> It reminds me of when Microsoft's Explorer Crashes....
[22:50] <acerimmer> dominicdinada: doesn't mean your download stopped.  Check /Downloads for an active file
[22:50] <darolu> Advent: open the /etc/default/grub file with super user powers and edit the line that says "GRUB_DEFAULT" to what you want, it can be a numeric value or the exact menuentry string in /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[22:50] <dominicdinada> No acerimmer i am Dumping a transfer to my Server...
[22:50] <Advent> thank you
[22:50] <acerimmer> dominicdinada: :\
[22:51] <dominicdinada> Crashed Just like Windows... wow I guess Ubuntu wants to be exactly like microsoft
[22:51] <ZykoticK9> Advent, darolu after the change you probably need "sudo update-grub2" to apply the change
[22:51] <gmgross> I am having paint performance issues with a Dell Inspiron 1545 Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic, GNOME 2.28.1. Sys monitor shows 1 of 2 CPU 100% busy for 10+sec
[22:51] <acerimmer> gmgross: exact same system - and...
[22:51] <Jon--> I am trying to configure either VLC (http interface with wget) or mdb with mpc so I can bind a key at the top of my laptop to pause / next track / play, etc globally. I have been trying for a couple days now and getting really frustrated. Need a more experienced users assistance please.
[22:52] <dominicdinada> Is their any safe way to terminate the transfer since this is not a copy and paste this is me moving files from an external drive
[22:52] <darolu> dominicdinada: dumping will copy the data (block by block), not move it (copy+delete)
[22:52] <wildbat_laptop> dominicdinada, ctrl -c?
[22:53] <dominicdinada> darolu: so i can just kill the process and reboot?
[22:54] <darolu> dominicdinada: yes you could but I wouldn't recommend it since it can damage your original information, how big the risk is depends (among other factors) on your filesystem; if the dumping is working you can let it finish
[22:54] <dominicdinada> wildbat_laptop: well I used the File Explorer (nautilus )   Is there a recovery option to run ? also my desktop windows lost all their close... etc buttons :/ This is like the 8th time lucid has done this
[22:55] <bodom> Thunderbird 3 is EATING my disk space! Help!
[22:55] <darolu> You can dump with nautilus?
[22:55] <dominicdinada> darolu: Dump as in move = cut + paste
[22:55] <onetinsoldier> bodom: well why don't you kill the thunderbird process?
[22:55] <bcgrown> I have a script that does a DISPLAY=:0 xset dpms force off/on.   it turns off fine,  and turns the display back on but doesn't unblank the screen until i hit a key or move the mouse.  anyone know why?
[22:56] <bodom> onetinsoldier: maybe blaming it would be a good solution, but, definitely, I don't displike it so much
[22:56] <dominicdinada> As for the transfer I have no way to know because all the "explorer" windows are locked and greyed out I could open a new window on the server to verify
[22:56] <bodom> *dislike
[22:56] <wolter> is nautilus crashing for everybody when you open the trash?
[22:56] <darolu> dominicdinada: uhmmm I usually understand a different operation http://linux.about.com/od/commands/l/blcmdl8_dump.htm  if the process of cutting+pasting is working you should let it finish
[22:57] <dominicdinada> nautilus is crashing all the time on this end wolter
[22:57] <onetinsoldier> bodom: what's it doing to eat up a lot of disk space?
[22:57] <darolu> wolter: doesn't crash for me
[22:57] <wolter> dominicdinada, oh i feel you
[22:57] <wolter> dominicdinada, mine used to crash when i clicked on volumes on the desktop lol, but now its fixed
[22:58] <bodom> onetinsoldier: the ImapMail folder is growing up without any sort of control
[22:58] <dominicdinada> wolter: I love ubuntu but they went all flashy pretty and well crashing every day is not cool
[22:58] <dominicdinada> especially when im transfering 50 gigs accross the network to my server wow
[22:58] <darolu> bodom: it is syncing with your e-mail account, it is normal
[22:58] <onetinsoldier> bodom: hmm, don't know
[22:59] <crankharder> my vmbuilder command is just hanging with this: http://pastie.org/951869 -- any ideas why?
[22:59] <bodom> darolu: if I wanted it to download mail locally, then I used pop3 instead. No, it's not normal, it's a panic... how to stop it?
[22:59] <darolu> dominicdinada: nautilus graying can be normal when transfering that many information, let it finish and it should go back to normal, other processes in your computer can be slow as the transfer is using many of your resources
[23:00] <darolu> bodom: IMAP will sync your e-mail, you can just kill thunderbird (the process) and then configure what you want to sync and what not
[23:00] <dominicdinada> darolu: I understand that but this is 2 hours into the transfer I transfered a 10 gig block earlier... no problems...
[23:01] <dominicdinada> Not to mention all my file windows unrelated to this are crashed as well sigh... sudo aptitude remove gnome-desktop-enviroment
[23:01] <dominicdinada> go with the gnome-core... no pretty flashy bullsnap
[23:02] <danielbw> g
[23:02] <bodom> darolu: I have a "do not use more than 50Mb for cache" setting, doesn't this does the job?
[23:02] <wolter> it shouldn't crash either way...
[23:02] <darolu> dominicdinada: if you have a large file (say a 4GB one) and you're trying to paste it to a filesystem that doesn't support files that large can cause the crashing
[23:02] <wolter> its a file transfer
[23:02] <mikeliss> Is there a clever way to kill a program when you don't know its pid, and it's started by python?
[23:02] <red> How can I remove the login keyring crap?
[23:02] <camel_> dos anyone know how to use the mv command and display the status of it ... can't think of what it's called right now
[23:02] <wolter> mikeliss, if you launched it a short time ago, pgrep for python and take the biggest pid
[23:02] <red> Popup always appears in my telivision instead of my PC screen so I need to switch it on to use pc :P
[23:03] <wolter> other than that, I wouldn't know
[23:03] <wolter> maybe look for its open files?
[23:03] <mikeliss> wolter: sadly, it's a daemon, so no luck there. Other ideas?
[23:03] <ClayReiche> Loshki: I'm creating an install image that will be used for 100+ workstations. The "prompt" will be asking for a 4 digit extension that is incorporated into the hostname, a few firefox shortcuts, and I also "ImageMagick" the desktop background to display the extension prominantly
[23:03] <dominicdinada> darolu: This is not a size limit because I can just be browsing locally and this happens without warning... As the other guy said it crashes when in the trash also
[23:03] <darolu> bodom: no, that doesn't apply for your e-mail sync
[23:04] <wolter> mikeliss, then maybe its one of the first ones haha
[23:04] <wolter> smallest*
[23:04] <bodom> darolu: omg I'm dommed then
[23:04] <dominicdinada> Correction It took out all my taskbar programs it cant restore them while I can stop all but the file windows
[23:04] <ClayReiche> Loshki: The "prompt" will only occur 1 time.
[23:04] <mikeliss> wolter: This sounds unreliable at best.....hrmm...
[23:04] <darolu> bodom: no you're not, how large is your e-mail inbox? is it larger than your available free-HD-space?
[23:04] <erkan^> !dictionary
[23:04] <erkan^> :S
[23:05] <wolter> mikeliss, yes haha , I was partly joking
[23:05] <erkan^> no support :(
[23:05] <New0bo> Is there a command to kill programs? I have an unresponsive application and no idea how to kill it
[23:05] <shane2peru> ok, I want my nvidia graphics stuff back, :)  I'm going for simple is there a ppa or do I need to do this manually?
[23:05] <camel_> kill -9 <pid>
[23:05] <dominicdinada> kill (pid)
[23:05] <New0bo> how do I get the pid?
[23:05] <wolter> New0bo, or you can pkill <process-name>
[23:05] <bodom> darolu: yep, it's a 7Gb inbox over about 100 more MBs remaining on my /home
[23:05] <dominicdinada> ps -a
[23:05] <ClayReiche> ps -Ae
[23:06] <wolter> New0bo, pgrep -l <process name>
[23:06] <darolu> New0bo: ps -u <username> if it is a process started by you
[23:06] <daftykins> shane2peru: for Lucid?
[23:06] <mikeliss> New0bo: You can often kill GUI programs just by clicking their close button.
[23:06] <red> cool
[23:06] <red> xmarks on firefox just went nuts
[23:06] <New0bo> k thanks
[23:06] <red> replaced all my bookmarks with 1 bookmark
[23:06] <red> :S
[23:06] <dominicdinada> God blessed dang it
[23:06] <bodom> bodom: I've disabled sync options and restarted thunderbird, looks like it stopped eating space now, but ImapMail still takes more than 3Gb
[23:06] <camel_> anyone command linefu - mv with status output  i.e.  mv filename to filename2   [[23:07] <stoneman> problem: when i try to open "windows network" i get this error "Failed to retrieve share list from the server", i read a lot of tutorials how to fix that but still don't work... any suggestion?
[23:07] <darolu> bodom: cancel the transfer then, you can configure what folders to sync later; to kill thunderbird use a terminal "sudo killall thunderbird" if it fails look for the processID with "ps -u <username>" and use "sudo kill -kill <processID>"
[23:07] <shane2peru> daftykins, wow that was odd, I just my sessions just crashed? just all of the sudden it logged me out!, yes for Lucid.
[23:08] <BluBull>  :D
[23:08] <justin22885> im trying to run something under wine.. but the app im trying to run says i do not have administrator privelages.. whats wrong here?

[23:08] <daftykins> shane2peru: just use system -> administration -> hardware drivers to install and enable the nvidia drivers
[23:08] <bodom> darolu: done. What if i rm -R ImapMail now?

[23:10] <Cornwall> Hi, apt-get freezes on installing docbook-xsl-doc-html. Every time I use apt-get it wants to install the package, even if I try and remove/purge it. It has no dependencies whatsoever, it's just "cued" for installation. How do I take it off?

[23:12] <Cornwall> onetinsoldier: no prob
[23:14] <gabspeck> camel_: restarting pulse didn't do the trick :\
[23:14] <mikeliss> wolter: Sigh. Ridiculous, but effective: ps -eo pid,command | grep python | awk -F' ' '{print $1}';
[23:14] <gabspeck> it worked on the fly on 9.10.. pretty lame regression
[23:14] <mikeliss> wolter: Except the grep python part is going to grep a specific python instance.
[23:14] <George_e> I've got a root terminal open... how can I kill all running instances of gedit?
[23:15] <bodom> George_e: killall gedit
[23:15] <mikeliss> wolter: and the final command: kill `ps -eo pid,command | grep python | awk -F' ' '{print $1}';`
[23:15] <kitche> KristianDK -C switch
[23:15] <lucid_lynx> George_e: 'killall gedit', I believe
[23:16] <onetinsoldier> Cornwall: try using aptitude. as root, run aptitude and then press  /  (slash key). that will allow you to search on that package name. when that package is highlighted in aptitude, press the 'Enter' key
[23:16] <lukeKB> abend
[23:16] <wolter> mikeliss, lol
[23:16] <George_e> lucid_lynx: Afraid not. Still running.
[23:16] <dominicdinada> well it is still transfering but what are the odds that the data might be corrupted
[23:17] <George_e> lucid_lynx: They still show up in resource monitor.
[23:17] <Cornwall> onetinsoldier: okay, it's highlighted
[23:17] <KristianDK> kitche, that was my impression as well, but it really doesnt work for me - check this out http://dpaste.com/192281/

[23:18] <CheckMate> what package is needed to play mp3 files in amarok on Ubuntu Lucid?
[23:18] <wolter> yeah haha, well now I saw my error, I didn't specify anything to awk
[23:18] <dominicdinada> ls
[23:18] <onetinsoldier> Cornwall: roger. i think that means it like half-installed or something. ok, what happens if you press the underscore key on it?, then press g
[23:19] <George_e> This is bad - I can't even kill them by their process id :O
[23:19] <lucid_lynx> George_e: when that happens, just go to the System Monitor, right click and select 'Kill Process' - it usually works for me
[23:19] <bodom> George_e: use kill -9
[23:19] <onetinsoldier> Cornwall: pressing (shift -) the underscore on a package marks it for purge
[23:19] <George_e> lucid_lynx: Nope. That does nothing.
[23:20] <bodom> George_e: kill -9 <pid>

[23:22] <lucid_lynx> !repeat | Jon--
[23:22] <bodom> George_e: short answer: standark kill "ask" the process to terminate, kill -9 "force" the process to terminate. Long answer: type man kill in terminal

[23:23] <xyz_> my name is registered with berat on launchpad
[23:23] <Cornwall> onetinsoldier: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=bD4PCAxX . Maybe this will work
[23:23] <lucid_lynx> Narya: when you create a launcher, select "Application in Terminal" instead of "Application" in the 'Launcher Properties' dialog
[23:23] <Polemus> how can one see the status of you sync with ubuntu one file storage?
[23:24] <George_e> dominicdinada: You will have to just wait then :)
[23:24] <Narya> lucid_lynx thank you
[23:24] <trism> xyz_: did you configure your ssh keys? you need them to log in https://help.launchpad.net/YourAccount/CreatingAnSSHKeyPair
[23:24] <onetinsoldier> Cornwall: ok, what happens if you do what it says? try to reinstall it first?
[23:24] <CheckMate> what package is needed to play mp3 files in amarok on Ubuntu Lucid?
[23:24] <bodom> ClayReiche: the problem (I guess) is that if you run your script on rc.local it will run with root credentials and it's not a good pratice to make it accept input from common users. That's why I guess interactivity is disabled on rc scripts
[23:24] <gabspeck> any ideas on getting hdmi audio output to work without rebooting?
[23:25] <Cornwall> onetinsoldier: then it will hang, doing nothing, and I will have to kill the process and manually unlock /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[23:25] <mikeliss> wolter: Final version: kill -2 `ps -eo pid,command | grep 'scrape_and_parse.py -d' | grep -v 'grep' | awk -F' ' '{print $1}';`

[23:25] <Polemus> how can one see the status of you sync with ubuntu one file storage?
[23:26] <Cornwall> onetinsoldier: done

[23:28] <jpds> deeeed: What you want is: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/94065
[23:28] <deeeed> ah ok
[23:28] <mikelifeguard> dominicdinada: "keyring perhaps" doesn't help me >_>
[23:28] <Cornwall> onetinsoldier: I believe this package (being docs) has no deps
[23:28] <deeeed> jpds, thanks
[23:28] <max_> list
[23:29] <ClayReiche> bodom: just thought for sure this was possible...
[23:29] <onetinsoldier> Cornwall: no. you can actually do it with synaptic i  believe. or, you can use 'apt-file'.... to list the files of packages
[23:30] <deeeed> jpds, I did it yesterday and it worked fine.  Any window that is out of focus is unaccessable...
[23:30] <jpds> deeeed: Oh, so it's already been removed?
[23:30] <Polemus> how can one see the status of you sync with ubuntu one file storage?
[23:31] <onetinsoldier> Cornwall: anyway.. is apt-get or whatever working now?
[23:31] <deeeed> yes the thing is I am trying to insert a new init script and I always have an error (which I didn't had yesterday)
[23:31] <ClayReiche> bodom: Alright, I'll keep searching.  It's just a doc file!
[23:31] <Kelroy> what could be the reason?
[23:31] <max_> hello

[23:32] <onetinsoldier> Cornwall: i don't know how the package installation/uninstallation got broken on you system
[23:32] <mikelifeguard> Kelroy: What do you mean it doesn't want to save your root password?
[23:32] <Cornwall> onetinsoldier: bizarre. Well, thank you very much for your help
[23:32] <xyz_> trism,  i did all things
[23:32] <Kelroy> yes, i made > sudo: apt-get install mysql-server (or 5.0 or 5.1)

[23:32] <Kelroy> then i have to type in my pw
[23:32] <Kelroy> but it dont save it
[23:33] <deeeed> jpds, to be sure I did: update-rc.d -f apache2 remove    (it worked)      and         update-rc.d apache2 defaults (doesn't work)
[23:33] <Kelroy> i cant login in with this password
[23:33] <onetinsoldier> Cornwall: you're welcome. enjoy
[23:33] <mophead> Hi everyone, I'm having trouble with flash in firefox 3.6.3. Audio won't play but video is fine.  I updated the adobe flash plugin to Ubuntu APT and it worked but when I rebooted the computer it stopped working again.  Any ideas?
[23:33] <bodom> ClayReiche: nothing
[23:33] <jpds> deeeed: Strange...
[23:33] <mikelifeguard> Kelroy: Are you sure you're trying to log in as the same use it asks the password for?

[23:34] <erkan^> sorry ubuntu one by me is dutch language. i don't know how :S
[23:34] <erkan^> effe see
[23:34] <xyz_> :D
[23:34] <deeeed> jpds, hmm my mistake seems to work
[23:34] <bdi> how do i open a terminal from commandline?
[23:35] <erkan^> is your Ubuntu 9.10 or 10.04 ?
[23:35] <lucid_lynx> is it possible to see what version of a program is available in the repositories without installing it?
[23:35] <xyz_> 10.04
[23:35] <erkan^> uh? effe see
[23:35] <EpicCyndaquil> I want to install a package from an http address, how do I do that?
[23:35] <jpds> lucid_lynx: apt-cache policy <package>
[23:35] <dominicdinada> is it a deb package
[23:35] <lucid_lynx> jpds: okay, thanks :)
[23:35] <jpds> EpicCyndaquil: Download it, then double-click it.
[23:35] <EpicCyndaquil> jpds, I can't do that, I'm on Ubuntu Server
[23:35] <xyz_> muhahahhahahaha
[23:36] <jpds> EpicCyndaquil: Then: sudo dpkg -i <package_name.deb>
[23:36] <erkan^> SoftwareCentre --> search Ubuntu-One, try it all that install
[23:36] <Guest12907> I can't get connected to my hidden wifi.
[23:36] <EpicCyndaquil> and it's not a .deb, it's a tar.gz
[23:36] <Kelroy> mikelifeguard: So i tried it several times , but i dont know the reason
[23:36] <xyz_> okey
[23:36] <sheeps10> Hi, I'm getting strange behaviour with the indicator applet on my netbook, it changed in lucid to add a button to not show the message bubble for future notifications, only now every time it shows the same bubble it adds another button. so now I have the bubble scrolling off the screen....
[23:36] <lucid_lynx> also, I had installed wine from the Ubuntu repositories, and then added a PPA repository with a newer version, and it wouldn't upgrade it - any ideas why?
[23:36] <jpds> EpicCyndaquil: Then it's not a package.
[23:36] <xyz_> ubuntu one was installed
[23:37] <EpicCyndaquil> jpds, then what do I need to do with it?
[23:37] <jpds> lucid_lynx: Is this the wine PPA?
[23:37] <jpds> EpicCyndaquil: Unpack it and compile the source.
[23:37] <geraudk2000> hello
[23:37] <lucid_lynx> jpds: I used ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa, which I think is the Wine PPA (at least I found it on the WineHQ website)
[23:38] <jpds> lucid_lynx: Try installing the wine1.2 package.
[23:38] <deeeed> jpds, ok I don't know where I messed up but now it works
[23:38] <lucid_lynx> jpds: well, I got it working by uninstalling and then installing wine, but I just wanted to know why it didn't upgrade in the first place
[23:39] <jpds> lucid_lynx: That PPA has the wine package under a different name 'wine1.2'.
[23:39] <hmw> Can I reload the sound system, or do I have to reboot?
[23:39] <erkan^> ubuntuone-client; python-ubuntuone-storagepro- python-ubutone-client- etc...
[23:40] <bdi> how do i open a terminal from commandline?
[23:40] <penguin42> bdi: gnome-terminal
[23:40] <lucid_lynx> jpds: well, I installed wine the normal way (sudo apt-get install wine), and it worked just fine
[23:40] <jpds> lucid_lynx: Exactly, do: sudo apt-get install wine1.2
[23:40] <penguin42> bdi: Or more generic x-terminal-emulator   should work on kde or gnome or most others
[23:40] <hmw> bdi: look in the properties of the terminal icon.
[23:40] <Guest12907> How can I connect to a hidden wifi?
[23:40] <jpds> lucid_lynx: Because the package is under a different name, it doesn't try to upgrade it.
[23:41] <hmw> Can I reload the sound system, or do I have to reboot?
[23:41] <lucid_lynx> jpds: well, I have upgraded it now (as I've said before)
[23:41] <lucid_lynx> jpds: but the same way as I installed it in the first place: with the 'wine' package
[23:42] <erkan^> brb sorry
[23:43] <sheeps10> Hi, I'm getting strange behaviour with the indicator applet on my netbook, it changed in lucid to add a button to not show the message bubble for future notifications, only now every time it shows the same bubble it adds another button. so now I have the bubble scrolling off the screen. Does anyone have any suggestions?
[23:43] <UbuntuBoy> Hi guys. What does this error mean?   could not start device/dev/mapper/asr_pictures-No such file or directory
[23:45] <Debjit> hmw: service pulseaudio --full-restart
[23:45] <hmw> thank you!
[23:46] <hmw> lol now it seems to run 2 times - i have real weird sound now! (it said "...per user sessions" twice)
[23:47] <Debjit> hmw: ya first it stops and then it starts
[23:47] <Debjit> hmw: so two messages
[23:48] <hmw> Debjit: it played the test song in parallel overlay-like with 0.5" delay or so :))
[23:49] <vexati0n> I have an Ubuntu machine that can't get to the Internet.... how can I download a new program to install on that computer, making sure I have all of its dependencies?
[23:49] <Debjit> hmw: see if there are two instances of pulseaudio running
[23:49] <dominicdinada> How can I restart the gnome desktop manager via shell ?
[23:50] <vexati0n> I have an Ubuntu machine that can't get to the Internet.... how can I download a new program to install on that computer, making sure I have all of its dependencies?
[23:51] <k04> vexation download it on the same machine ur using irc on
[23:51] <lucid_lynx> is it possible to give users other than root mounting permissions?
[23:51] <hmw> vexati0n: ALL OTHERS: perhaps you can install the software on another ubuntu (live cd?) and then get all .deb files from apt's cache - DOES THAT WORK?
[23:52] <GotSanity> anyone know of a known bug that is causing laptop users to have excessive heat generation?
[23:52] <sheeps10> lucid_lynx: that's an example from the man page of mount
[23:52] <jthing> GotSanity, Yes it's called firefox
[23:52] <lucid_lynx> sheeps10: okay, thanks :)
[23:52] <Appl6> GotSanity: My laptop hardly ever uses the fan when it runs Ubuntu.  It doesn't seem to produce excess heat though.
[23:52] <Appl6> GotSanity: Ubuntu seems to wait till it gets very hot before turning on the fan.
[23:53] <dominicdinada> GotSanity: Yes it is called the new desktop is really cpu intensive
[23:53] <crankharder> how do I tell apt-get to use a local proxy?
[23:53] <rain__> Can anyone help me? I ins6talled ATI radeondriver on  ubuntu 10.04 (I have ati radeon HD 4800) but after i installed driver graphics turned slowen, not faster as I expected
[23:53] <rain__> any idea about that driver problem?
[23:53] <hmw> GotSanity: certain software that doesnt let the CPU rest. Might be a driver issue with many things. Mainboard, Compiz, crashed programs, etc. Check what programs are running in terminal with "top". Deacrtivate Compiz.
[23:54] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[23:54] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[23:54] <jthing> My CPy is designed to run at 80 deg C but some go as high as 130 deg
[23:54] <GotSanity> Appl6, well the issue I am running into is that ever since I did an upgrade (and a fresh install after) I am running into excessive heat coming from the palm rests on my laptop. the cpu is idle and on power save mode but im still kicking a lot of heat
[23:54] <hmw> jthing: 130 is way too hot, do not let it run when it gets that hot, you will damage it
[23:54] <acicula> jthing, no recent cpu goes to 130
[23:55] <hmw> acicula: really? thought that appliead to GPUs only
[23:55] <jthing> acicula, you are wrong the zenon 6 core 3.2 GHz does.
[23:55] <acicula> hmw, let me rephase, No recent cpu will reach 130
[23:56] <hmw> oops
[23:56] <acicula> jthing, its Tjunction is as high as 130?
[23:56] <jthing> acicula, just read the specs the other day
[23:56] <hmw> jthing: does the box have windows? does it get as hot there? Try to fix cooling, remove and reapply heat paste perhaps
[23:57] <GotSanity> no windows. its full buntu
[23:57] <Polemus> how can i make a backup of my entire system onto an external drive?
[23:57] <Appl6> vexati0n: On your non-internet machine, try "apt-get --simulate --print-uris install PACKAGE".  It should tell you everything it was going to install and where to get it, and then you can download those from another machine.
[23:57] <hmw> jthing: clean fan and the thing that collects dust (is it named "cooling body")?
[23:57] <GotSanity> however I had it running karmic without issues for the last 6 months
[23:57] <dominicdinada> hmw: This is something alot of people have noticed since going to lucid :/
[23:57] <jthing> they also have something called a turbo mode where the CPU can overclock itself it is is running cool enough for short bursts
[23:58] <jthing> enough ^,
[23:58] <Appl6> jthing: Turbo mode usually means it slows your computer down.
[23:58] <onetinsoldier> Polemus: i've never used it, but you might look at the 'backuppc' package. ther'e probably other ones as well
[23:58] <DoorGuy> does anyone know of any open source programs that copy DVD Movies?
[23:58] <hmw> dominicdinada: 130°C is a bit too much.... no CPU should _ever_ get that hot, if it is OK, don't you think? Or have modern CPUs become cheap (erm expensive) toys now?
[23:58] <Traveler__> Hi, People
[23:59] <acicula> hmw, 130W power dissipation you mean? if you read out the sensors it will probably say tjunction max is 110 or 100?
[23:59] <onetinsoldier> !hi | Traveler__
[23:59] <Appl6> hmw: Maybe his temp display is in F?
[23:59] <venger> so with the alternate installer CD and selecting basic ubuntu server I still get the -generic kernel and not -server?  i need LVM so is it possible to install using the server iso?
[23:59] <mrkoolnerd> hi
[23:59] <starspot> I  have 88 GiB "unallocated" space on my hard drive (former windows). How do I use Gparted to extent my Ubuntu partition into that unallocated space? I'm using the boot cd
[23:59] <hmw> Appl6: oh. i will remember that the next time someone askas
[23:59] <dominicdinada> hmw: I am saying that I noticed that Lucid is much more CPU intensive and as a result you A, Hear the fan on all the time and B, Feel alot more heat
