[05:42] <zykotick9> bobweaver, you did ask for that flood ;)
[05:42] <bobweaver> lol
[05:43] <venluckey> its all good, no harm done
[05:44] <ActionParsnip> Encryptfs options should have a little sidenote saying "Warning if you want to reinstall then you will have to do a LOT of messing around to get your data. Is it really worth it?"

[05:44] <judh> I get this errror
[05:44] <ActionParsnip> judh: free up some space on your system partition. I suggest you remove old kernels as this can help a LOT
[05:44] <bobweaver> !pastebin | venluckey
[05:45] <venluckey> ok
[05:45] <ActionParsnip> judh: I thought the error was fairly clear.....
[05:45] <bobweaver> thanks venluckey
[05:45] <venluckey> np
[05:45] <judh> could you help me how to free up some space in my system parttion"
[05:46] <ActionParsnip> judh: remove old kernels
[05:46] <venluckey> well i tried to run aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav, but still have no sound
[05:46] <zykotick9> ActionParsnip, have you noticed, has tzdata been updated several times in ubuntu recently?
[05:46] <judh> where do i find the old kernel files
[05:46] <zykotick9> judh, "dpkg -l | grep linux-image"
[05:46] <bobweaver> venluckey,  please open terminal and enter   lspci  -nn     and pastebin   it
[05:47] <judh> ActionParsnip: where do i find the old kernel files
[05:47] <mintsoup> Would someone mind taking a look at this? http://pastebin.com/aQxdPgPV I'm having some difficulty building a C and C++ project on Ubuntu 11.10; I'm not sure if I'm running into some issue with the libc6-dev package in 11.10 or if I'm hitting something else..
[05:47] <flknefw> is there a virtual machine for linux so i can install osx in it for the disk utility so i can burn that dmg file?
[05:47] <fatboy21007> is their any other program to make windows games run besides wine/winetricks and playonlinux?
[05:48] <naught101> I pluggen mu phone in to USB, and mounted the SD card as an external USB storage device, I then safely removed it, and unplugged the phone, but the drive still shows in the removable media widget and I still have /dev/sdb an /dev/sdb1 on my system. Anyone know what I need to do to remove those?
[05:48] <judh> ActionParsnip: have i had to clear the usr/var
[05:48] <venluckey> http://paste.ubuntu.com/726977/
[05:48] <zykotick9> flknefw, installing OSX into a VM is a violation of apple policy
[05:48] <flknefw> lol and?
[05:48] <aeon-ltd> fatboy21007: use a vm? but that would take insane processing power
[05:48] <ActionParsnip> judh: they are installed using packages, so if you remove the excess packages it will remove the files
[05:48] <naught101> s/pluggen mu/plugged my/
[05:48] <flknefw> me getting robbed of 30 bucks by apple is against my policy
[05:48] <ActionParsnip> judh: you don't remove them manually, it will break things
[05:49] <rockband> hi all, anyone wants to help me fix my DNS error
[05:49] <ActionParsnip> zykotick9: not hugely, I kinda have updates to autorun every few hours so its all in the background for me
[05:49] <zykotick9> fatboy21007, there is a proprietary alternative crossover-games (or similar name), no idea how it compares
[05:49] <venluckey> should i try to reinstall restriced modules?
[05:49] <bobweaver> venluckey,   what ubuntu is this ?
[05:49] <naught101> it appears to be screwing up my upgrade process (grub config is hanging)
[05:49] <zykotick9> ActionParsnip, just curious - as it seems to be a common in debian-stable the last couple of weeks
[05:50] <mebigfatguy> anyone have a link to doing what 'main menu' does manually, as it's currently busted? Trying to add app to launcher that ubuntu doesn't know about (yet).
[05:50] <judh> ActionParsnip: then how could i remove them without any breakage?
[05:50] <ActionParsnip> zykotick9: it runs this: http://pastebin.com/unWfhXWq
[05:50] <venluckey> its xubuntu 10.04
[05:51] <ActionParsnip> judh: if you run:  uname -a   you will see the CURRENT kernel. if you run:  dpkg -l | grep linux-image-      you will see the INSTALLED kernels. You can remove any installed kernel but NOT the RUNNING kernel. Yuo will get about 120Mb per kernel
[05:51] <bobweaver> venluckey,  ActionParsnip  wrote this look at post #3      https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+question/156210
[05:52] <zykotick9> ActionParsnip, very nice.  certainly more thorough then my "aptitude safe-upgrade" ;)
[05:52] <ActionParsnip> judh: there are countless guides on how to do this stuff
[05:52] <ActionParsnip> zykotick9: I like apt-fast ;)
[05:52] <ActionParsnip> zykotick9: plus if I run the script and pass it r or s as an arg it will restart or shutdown after the updates
[05:53]  * zykotick9 goes to research what apt-fast even is
[05:53] <bobweaver> venluckey,  I would also study my alsa file
[05:53]  * ActionParsnip thinks apt-fast should be default
[05:53] <bobweaver> ActionParsnip,  alais to the rescue  ?
[05:54] <flknefw> will i be able to burn a disk using virtualbox ?
[05:54] <ActionParsnip> zykotick9: http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcREvLe_zecZphUozMTFDJx7aiBEUS6GPsWNX5VRleB85BBKF75rCWinG1BldQ   imagine if apt-get grabbed debs from 3 places :)
[05:55] <ActionParsnip> bobweaver: there was a script to make software centre and such use it too but I don't use that thing now
[05:55] <bobweaver> cO_o|
[05:55] <bobweaver> ActionParsnip, like adept ?
[05:55]  * bobweaver is off to google
[05:55] <ActionParsnip> bobweaver: I've not used adept
[05:56] <venluckey> brb, have to reboot
[05:56] <judh> ii  linux-image-2.6.32-21-generic        2.6.32-21.32                                    Linux kernel image for version 2.6.32 on x86 ii  linux-image-2.6.32-24-generic        2.6.32-24.43                                    Linux kernel image for version 2.6.32 on x86 ii  linux-image-2.6.32-25-generic        2.6.32-25.45                                    Linux kernel image for version 2.6.32 on x86 ii  linux-image-2.6.32-26-generic
[05:56] <bobweaver> ActionParsnip,  good if you use kde and gnome at same time
[05:56] <ActionParsnip> judh: ok and what is the output of:  uname -a
[05:57] <judh> Linux judhistir-desktop 2.6.32-34-generic #77-Ubuntu SMP Tue Sep 13 19:40:53 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux
[05:57] <ActionParsnip> bobweaver: I use KDE on one rig and LXDE on another, the others are X-less :)
[05:58] <ActionParsnip> judh: then run:  sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image-2.6.32-21-generic            I suggest you reboot so that the newest kernel is loaded. I'm guessing your uptime is quite large
[05:59] <ActionParsnip> judh: once the 32-26 kernel is running, you can remove the other 2 kernels and get even more space
[06:00] <bobweaver> I have a awk question     ps aux |awk '/bash/'  {print2}       <-- what is wrong I am trying to only output the PID #
[06:00] <ActionParsnip> bobweaver: why not use pidof ?
[06:01] <bobweaver> ActionParsnip,  trying to learn and use awk more
[06:01] <bobweaver> nore about learning then purpose
[06:01] <ActionParsnip> bobweaver: gotcha, let me try
[06:02] <npat> bobweaver, you should have said: ps aux | awk  '/bash/  {print $2}'
[06:02] <bobweaver> npat,  SWEET
[06:02] <bobweaver> it was the $ before and the placement of ''
[06:03] <ActionParsnip> bobweaver: ps -ef | grep bash | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}'      works here
[06:03] <pipalo>  I use 'ps -A | grep PIDHERE'. any better way to do ?
[06:03] <npat> bobweaver, yes and a space after the "print"
[06:03] <judh> just rebooting the system....once i get back I will discuss with you soon
[06:03] <pipalo> How you get Process name by PID ?
[06:03] <bobweaver> npat,  ActionParsnip  thanks you guys are AWESOME
[06:04] <ActionParsnip> bobweaver: the grep -v grep  is so that the grep itself doesn't show a PID
[06:05] <bobweaver> ActionParsnip,  I see
[06:06]  * bobweaver is in a love triangle with sed and awk :>)
[06:07] <pipalo> I know its annoying to ask again and again, but I think my question just got lost in that convo.
[06:07] <pipalo> How can I get the process name by PID ?
[06:07] <ActionParsnip> bobweaver: try it.  ps -ef | grep bash     see how the grep itself shows and also has a pid
[06:07] <pipalo> I am using 'ps -A | grep PIDHERE' but I am sure there must be a better way.
[06:08] <bobweaver> pipalo,  funny we are talking about that
[06:09] <bobweaver> pipalo,     ps aux | awk '/NAMEHERE/  {print $2}
[06:09] <bobweaver> pipalo,     ps aux | awk '/NAMEHERE/  {print $2}'
[06:09] <pipalo> bobweaver: haha, odd. when killing defunc process sometimes you just want to know what is the parrent before killing it !
[06:09] <whatsaHacker> Has anybody been having problems with wireless on ubuntu 11.10 ...i keep having to uninstall bcmwl-kernel-source and reinstall with reboot
[06:09] <_sivanov> i just installed 11.10, dont need GUI, how to disable graphical logon?
[06:10] <ActionParsnip> pipalo: ps -ef | grep 2126 | grep -v grep | awk '{print $8}'
[06:10] <ActionParsnip> pipalo: obv change 2126 to the PID you want
[06:10] <ultrixx> _sivanov: why do you want to work without gui?
[06:10] <pipalo> ActionParsnip:looks good, will give it a try
[06:11] <_sivanov> ultrixx, its for bitcoin mining/iscsi server for other miners
[06:12] <ultrixx> _sivanov: don't you need an x-server for bitcoin mining?
[06:12] <ultrixx> i mean an x-server actually running
[06:12] <_sivanov> running just just /usr/bin/X is ok
[06:12] <zykotick9> _sivanov, prior to 11.10, you could move the gdm file in /etc/init/ to a gdm.disabled - not sure if the same would work for lightdm
[06:13] <judh> i run: sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image-2.6.32-21-generic
[06:13] <bobweaver> /etc/init.d/ zykotick9  ??
[06:13] <npat> pipalo: cat /proc/<PIDHERE>
[06:13] <_sivanov> zykotick9, my current miners rinning 11.04 are set up like you said
[06:13] <zykotick9> bobweaver, NO!!!

[06:15] <pipalo> npat: looks cool, but why not ?
[06:15] <ActionParsnip> judh: try:  sudo apt-get -f install      as it says
[06:15] <npat> too system specific. with ps you have a chance of it working on something that is not linux
[06:16] <pipalo> npat: makes sense, cheers man.

[06:17] <judh> should i write the command df -h

[06:18] <judh> what it doese?
[06:18] <zykotick9> judh, shows diskfree in human readable format

[06:18] <hashbrowncipher> I'm having an issue where the OOM killer snarfs my processes, but the system isn't actually out of memory.  I have 4GB of RAM, and the kernel is sitting on something like 1.7GB of cached memory.
[06:18] <npat> bobweaver, wait
[06:19] <hashbrowncipher> I tried doing drop_caches, but nothing happens to the amount of memory cached.  Is there something that would give the kernel an undue affection for 1.7GB of cached mem?
[06:19] <flknefw> is there a linux program that will let me format a USB flash drive to be bootable on mac

[06:20] <bobweaver> npat I see pipe it in there
[06:20] <zykotick9> flknefw, i think you need to include the detail that it's a DMG OSX that needs to be bootable, and not a linux ISO

[06:26] <mint> hi all, wondering if anyone has had this problem before, i updated my system rebooted and it goes to the black screen of death, coudn't get to grub, also couldnt' boot a live cd after selecting in the boot menu until i removed my hard drive so now i'm sitting in a linux mint live cd (only one i had at work) and i've tried to run boot-repair several times but it hasn't done the trick
[06:26] <npat> bobweaver, i guess... assuming that there's greatness in having an ascii-art cow recite shell pid numbers (smth quite dubious)
[06:26] <flknefw> redownload and burn a new cd
[06:26] <zykotick9> !mint | mint
[06:26] <bobweaver> loil
[06:26] <mint> after i reinstall the hard-drive and reboot still goes back to a blinking cursor on the black screen
[06:27] <bobweaver> npat,  ps aux |awk '/bash/ {print $2}' | cowsay -f vader
[06:27] <flknefw> mint they are gonna give u crap in here cuz this is an ubuntu forum
[06:27] <pipalo> thanks for help everyone
[06:27] <flknefw> ur using linix mint
[06:27] <flknefw> just go to linuxmint.com and download mint 11 with gnome.. burn to a dvd and re-install u should be good
[06:28] <flknefw> u can also use the linux pendrive utility
[06:28] <Doyle> mint, boot to live cd, go to /boot/grub/ and see if you have a grub.cfg backup file. If you do, restore it by renaming it to grub.cfg.
[06:28] <ActionParsnip> mint support in the mint channel only please
[06:29] <flknefw> by default he wouldve ended up on the mint server
[06:29] <flknefw> hence his nickname being mint
[06:29] <flknefw> prolly noone in there helping
[06:29] <judh> ActionParsnip please go through it and tell me what should i have to do next : http://imagebin.org/182213

[06:30] <mint> i have ubuntu installed, just don't have access to a ubuntu live cd
[06:30] <zykotick9> judh, your /usr at 4GB is the issue i think
[06:30] <ActionParsnip> judh: looks ok, run:  sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[06:30] <somsip> mint: just wanted to clarify as others are pushing you towards mint and I didn't think they should
[06:31] <ActionParsnip> judh: all you had to do was copy the text
[06:31] <flknefw> yeah mint is terrible because it works so good
[06:31] <mint> thanks i'm just running a mint live cd right now as i can't boot into ubuntu

[06:31] <somsip> mint: hd recognised ok in BIOS?

[06:31] <flknefw> 10.10 = exactly why youd rather have ubuntu
[06:31] <bobweaver> mint,  sudo fdisk -l
[06:31] <mint> hd drive is seen and recognized in the boot menu, after i select it it sends me to a blinking cursor

[06:37] <flknefw> isnt grub2 a lotttt more complicated for users?
[06:38] <mint> anybody have any ideas, trying not to reinstall as it's my work computer
[06:38] <costre_> yay, my laptop's stopped overheating! The heatsink on the GPU needed a firm push back into place. Im ashamed I ever blamed ubuntu's graphics drivers for the problem :)
[06:38] <flknefw> mint
[06:38] <flknefw> they made it clear
[06:38] <Doyle> grub2 is annoying. Every update I have to reapply my changes.
[06:38] <flknefw> itll take you 15 mins to re-install ubuntu
[06:39] <zykotick9> Doyle, are you editing grub.cfg?
[06:39] <flknefw> your grub isnt working according to you
[06:39] <flknefw> so i suggest you just take the easy route and burn a new cd or usb drive and boot off of it
[06:39] <mint> ok
[06:39] <mint> thanks
[06:39] <flknefw> good chance it was a bad install
[06:39] <flknefw> its happened to me in the past more than once
[06:40] <mint> it was an update
[06:40] <smw_> Doyle, I suggest you look at /etc/grub.d/40_custom
[06:40] <Doyle> thanks smw_

[06:41] <gbear14275> Backup location ‘/https:/one.ubuntu.com/api/file_storage/v1/volumes/~/deja-dup/pencil’ does not exist.
[06:41] <gbear14275> Anyone seen an error like that yet?  Tried to google but didn't see much
[06:42] <zykotick9> gbear14275, is it just http:// that you need to fix?
[06:42] <judh> zykotick9:  what should i have to do next and see my screenshot after sudo apt-get -f install : http://imagebin.org/182216
[06:42] <gbear14275> zykotick9, Thats an error output from the new backup client in oneric.  I pushed "backup now" and I got that
[06:42] <zykotick9> judh, your /usr is full - that's your problem
[06:43] <zykotick9> gbear14275, interesting - but that does appear like a typo for the URL
[06:43] <judh> zykotick9: how to remove some files without any breakage to the system
[06:43] <zykotick9> judh, ? good luck
[06:44] <gbear14275> zykotick9, I don't think so.  I don't think you'd want your backup data going over a clear line
[06:44] <smw_> judh, the only way is to uninstall programs.
[06:44] <zykotick9> gbear14275, i mean https://
[06:44] <smw_> judh, or check out if /usr/local is too big
[06:45] <zykotick9> gbear14275, vs "/https:/one..."
[06:45] <gbear14275> zykotick9, ah, yeah, I wonder if that is just an error message thing... not sure
[06:46] <zachera> wow
[06:46] <zachera> upgrading to 11.10...
[06:46] <zachera> this is pathetic.. unity and all..
[06:46] <zykotick9> judh, having /usr so small is going to lead to BIG issues come upgrade time (already you've maxed it out).  You should consider making it bigger.   My view is that unless you have multiple drives, it's not worth the bother
[06:50] <ActionParsnip> zachera: No, just a new desktop, you can use the same gnome apps in XFCE
[06:50] <zykotick9> zachera, installing the xubuntu-desktop should take care of it on ubuntu
[06:51] <zachera> ok
[06:51] <ActionParsnip> pnorman: if you use SSD drives its good to put /var and /tmp on a platter based drive to reduce wear
[06:51] <zachera> thanks
[06:51] <smw_> pnorman, it is a good idea for servers or computers with multiple drives.
[06:53] <gbear14275> zykotick9, I logged into my ubuntu one account a few times and then tried the backup... seemed to work from there.  Looked like there were some authentication problems
[06:53] <ActionParsnip> also moving internet browser cache to tmpfs is a great way to speed up the browser and use your drive less as well (if you have enough RAM to do so)
[06:54] <ActionParsnip> zykotick9: did you like apt-fast
[06:54] <flknefw> anyone in here good with virtual box?
[06:54] <smw_> !anyone | flknefw
[06:54] <smw_> ActionParsnip, that is a great idea :-)
[06:54] <zykotick9> ActionParsnip, looks like a neat script - not something i'll be using though
[06:54] <Shirakawasuna> flknefw: I don't know what 'good' means, but I can get it barely working
[06:54] <ActionParsnip> zacharydenton: xfce4 wil give a bare xfce desktop, xubuntu-desktop will install lots of apps that come with xfce which you already have the functionality of ;)
[06:54] <Shirakawasuna> does that count?
[06:54] <Doyle> flknefw: what you ant to know?
[06:55] <ActionParsnip> zykotick9: fair play
[06:55] <flknefw> well im trying to run osx in it on here and it just keeps saying "still waiting for root device"
[06:55] <ActionParsnip> flknefw: does the license permit virtualization?
[06:55] <Shirakawasuna> zacharydenton: I recommend xubuntu as a gnome 2 + ubuntu replacement. It's very similar in feel with all the ubuntu stuff
[06:56] <zykotick9> flknefw, it's not going to work - and it's certainly not supported in #vbox (i'd recommend against asking there, they don't approve of violating apples licenses)
[06:56] <flknefw> its not going to work yet it works for everyone else?
[06:56] <flknefw> dont gimme stupid answers
[06:56] <ActionParsnip> interesting http://thetechjournal.com/electronics/computer/software/mac-software-computer/mac-os-x-lion-allows-license-free-virtualization.xhtml
[06:57] <Shirakawasuna> zacharydenton: install xubuntu-desktop (sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop), then get everything set up how you like in the session (log out, set default to xfce, etc).
[06:57] <Shirakawasuna> zacharydenton: once everything is good, you can then remove ubuntu-desktop, which includes all the unity stuff you no longer need. Then autoremove
[06:57] <zykotick9> flknefw, wow, you're right.  looks like the new version of vbox can run OSX.  sorry for the bad info.
[06:58] <Shirakawasuna> err
[06:58] <Shirakawasuna> lol I failed there
[06:58] <ActionParsnip> flknefw: seems its ok with the license. Is the CD you have ok? Is there a checker on the CD at all?
[06:58] <flknefw> first of all  there is no osx lion cds
[06:58] <flknefw> its download only
[06:59] <Doyle> flknefw: y ou set the iso up in the instance settings, right?
[06:59] <flknefw> 2nd  all the prior versions of osx  dont need to allow it to be run for them to work
[06:59] <Doyle> flknefw: you also have to setup the boot order if I remember correctly.
[06:59] <Doyle> if you do those 2 things, it should work.
[07:00] <flknefw> actually i know why it might not work
[07:00] <flknefw> efi is enabled
[07:01] <zykotick9> ActionParsnip, "The end user license agreement of Mac OS X does not permit the operating system to run on non-Apple hardware"
[07:02] <dr_willis> that artical mentions that also.. sort of..
[07:02] <ActionParsnip> flknefw: its not download only, you can get it in apple stores on USB stick for 70 USD
[07:02] <zykotick9> ActionParsnip, but flknefw does have apple hardware, just not sure it's been used for the vbox
[07:02] <dr_willis> in vms on osx
[07:03] <flknefw> you wont find it at apple stores
[07:03] <ActionParsnip> flknefw: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Os_x_lion
[07:03] <ActionParsnip> flknefw: your witnes
[07:03] <flknefw> just like you wont find a copy of osx snow leaopard at apple stores
[07:03] <flknefw> you gotta buy it online
[07:03] <flknefw> idc what that says
[07:03] <flknefw> go to any apple store around your home
[07:04] <sethek> morgen
[07:04] <Doyle> flknefw: you've selected a 64bit OS when setting up the instance, right?
[07:05] <ActionParsnip> flknefw: I don't go ni those places. They always try and tell me their overpriced hardware is awesome
[07:05] <flknefw> no clue man
[07:05] <flknefw> im not familair with virtual box
[07:05] <Shirakawasuna> they do have some very pretty hardware
[07:05] <zykotick9> Shirakawasuna, looks are only skin deep ;)
[07:06] <Shirakawasuna> I have to admit that my thinkpad is ugly as sin. Anti-theft protection, it looks like it's from 1995.
[07:06] <gunztunz> how do i get rid of upstart in ubuntu and replace it with something saner?
[07:06] <Doyle> flknefw: google "efi virtualbox" there have been several people running down this issue in the forums.
[07:07] <ActionParsnip> flknefw: tried VMWare too?
[07:07] <zykotick9> gunztunz, you must be joking.  That would require re-writing the distro, more or less.  If you don't wan't upstart, use another distro.
[07:08] <gunztunz> zykotick9: at my fucking job they forced ubuntu on us as an embedded distro. it's being ruining my life
[07:08] <gunztunz> fucking retards
[07:08] <iceroot> gunztunz: stop it
[07:09] <gunztunz> i am not saying anything bad about ubuntu
[07:09] <gunztunz> sorry for my language
[07:09] <Doyle> hahaha, your life will conform to the popular vote
[07:09] <gunztunz> but you can just imagine from the fact that i have been working on an embedded system built on top of a desktop distro how frustrated i must be
[07:10] <iceroot> gunztunz: thats not the fault of ubuntu or any other distro
[07:10] <gunztunz> i have never said that
[07:10] <gunztunz> it's the fault of a braindead choice
[07:11] <gunztunz> do you think i can put some other init, given we have no real upstart conf files but just invoke a bash script from there?
[07:11] <iceroot> gunztunz: sure you can but that is not a good/clean solution i think
[07:12] <gunztunz> or is there a *quick* way of having upstart throw some debugging info instead of hanging there without printing anything?
[07:12] <gunztunz> i can assure nothing is clean in this stuff
[07:12] <iceroot> gunztunz: there was a bug for that
[07:12] <iceroot> gunztunz: let me have a look
[07:12] <gunztunz> thank you iceroot
[07:12] <flknefw> im doing exactly what this guy is doing in this tutorial
[07:13] <flknefw> and it just says no bootable medium found! system halted
[07:13] <ActionParsnip> flknefw: did you download the ISO or whatever it is?
[07:13] <flknefw> dmg file yes
[07:13] <ActionParsnip> flknefw: did you MD5 test it as ok (assuming MD5 sum is available)
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> flknefw: can virtualbox boot dmg?
[07:14] <whatsaHacker> I'm trying to ndiswapper....when i run sudo modprobe ndiswrapper i get: WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, it will be ignored in a future release.
[07:14] <whatsaHacker> ^What does that mean?
[07:14] <iceroot> gunztunz: hm at the morning my search-foo is very bad but i am 100% sure there is a bug for exactly that issue
[07:15] <ActionParsnip> flknefw: http://www.sysprobs.com/video-create-bootable-lion-os-iso-file-dmg   seems you need to convert it into an ISO
[07:15] <iceroot> gunztunz: and if i am correct it was the result that it would be fixed in 12.04
[07:15] <gunztunz> i think we are in 10.01
[07:15] <gunztunz> :(
[07:15] <iceroot> gunztunz: or better, it would be checked to integrate that feature in 12.04
[07:15] <zykotick9> flknefw, ActionParsnip according to https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/6760 vbox 4 has dmg support
[07:15] <iceroot> gunztunz: 10.04 is (imo) not using upstart
[07:15] <iceroot> !upstart
[07:15] <ActionParsnip> whatsaHacker: you need to rename /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist   so that it has a .conf extension. There is already a blacklist.conf in there so I suggest you run: sudo mv /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist /etc/modprobe.d/myblacklist.conf
[07:16] <iceroot> gunztunz: or a misc between both methods
[07:16] <zykotick9> iceroot, i seem to remember lucid as being the first that used upstart (i could be wrong)
[07:16] <ActionParsnip> whatsaHacker: all the files in that folder need a .conf extension for some reason or they get ignored
[07:16] <gunztunz> iceroot: are you talking about this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/ifupdown/+bug/497299
[07:16] <iceroot> zykotick9: it was in there but i dont know if everything was changed completly to 10.04
[07:16] <whatsaHacker> Thank you
[07:17] <BostonBruh> accidently shut my machine down
[07:17] <BostonBruh> back to the virtual machine issue
[07:17] <iceroot> gunztunz: hm, i know i was adding me as a affected person (but the search is not showing it under my bugs) that is not the bug i mean
[07:18] <BostonBruh> kk how do i get this thing working
[07:19] <iceroot> gunztunz: launchpad is down now :(
[07:19] <gunztunz> that link is opening for me
[07:19] <iceroot> gunztunz: but the topic was a debug-system for upstart
[07:19] <gunztunz> or you mean the search is down?
[07:19] <iceroot> gunztunz: search is giving me timeouts atm
[07:20] <gunztunz> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/474792 ?
[07:20] <gunztunz> is there a way to modify upstart scripts so as to echo something directly to the console?
[07:21] <BostonBruh> ugh the one dude who was gonna help me is gone isnt he
[07:23] <iceroot> gunztunz: yes that should be possible now, the bug i mean was a default-debug-system for upstart and controlling on failed events
[07:23] <BostonBruh> if i have Enable EFI special OSes only checked virtual box will atleast load up
[07:23] <iceroot> gunztunz: e.g. apparmor should be using upstart at the moment and its spawning my tty1 completly with error-messages, so using tty1 should be possible for other scripts too
[07:23] <BostonBruh> but fails to find boot device
[07:24] <GeorgeJ> Hello folks. I've got a fresh instalation of Ubuntu 11.10 on my Asus 5750G. I'm trying to dim the screen's brightness, Fn+Left/Right gets recognized by the OS, but the brightness does not change. `ls /sys/class/backlight/` outputs "acpi_video0  intel_backlight", changeing the brightness of intel_backlight works, but for acpi_video0 it does not. How can I tell Ubuntu which card to set the brightness for?
[07:24] <BostonBruh> just keeps saying "still waiting"
[07:24] <BostonBruh> if i have it unchecked . it just doesnt work at all
[07:26] <s0nee> i have a process called "upowerd" using 100% cpu and i cant kill it using whatever pkill, kill, killall -9. ideas ?
[07:26] <Nikki__> Hi!
[07:26] <gunztunz> iceroot: ?
[07:26] <Starminn> I keep getting "unhandled lockdown error (-5)" when I try to mount a device. What is this and how can I fix it?
[07:26] <gunztunz> where can i see the upstart conf file for apparmor?
[07:27] <iceroot> gunztunz: your issue is that upstart is not showing the status at boot? or that your scripts are not able to write to the shell at boot?
[07:27] <magocite> 8
[07:27] <gunztunz> upstart not showing the status at boot
[07:27] <gunztunz> the last thing i see is kernel freed 200kB memory
[07:27] <gunztunz> which is the same as with our system image that works
[07:27] <iceroot> gunztunz: ok, to change that there is the bug i mentioned (and not found at the moment)
[07:27] <gunztunz> when things work the next thing is the login prompt
[07:28] <gunztunz> i see :(
[07:28] <gunztunz> but anyways not in our old version of ubuntu
[07:29] <iceroot> gunztunz: yes, that would be a fix for 11.10 or 12.04 (maybe a backport is possible)
[07:29] <iceroot> gunztunz: maybe #ubuntu-devel is better for that
[07:30] <Nikki__> I can't hear the login Sound. In the Terminal I see >>Failed to play sound: File or data not found<<
[07:30] <BostonBruh> ugh wth
[07:30] <BostonBruh> spent how many hours on this
[07:30] <Nikki__> The command is: /usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="desktop-login" --description="GNOME Login"
[07:30] <BostonBruh> and of course virtual box wont work for me
[07:35] <heoyea> yawn
[07:35] <Stava> Since I upgraded ubuntu to 11.10, xchats system tray icon is gone. Do you know what might be the cause of this?
[07:36] <zykotick9> s0nee, did you try "sudo killall upowerd"?
[07:36] <Stava> Or rather, how do I fix it
[07:36] <semitones> Stava: yeah, it's not supported by unity
[07:36] <calamity> mine is...
[07:36] <s0nee> zykotick9: im tried logging in as root
[07:36] <calamity> I am on xchat with a unity icon right now
[07:36] <zetui> hello
[07:36] <owner> someone help me with virtual box
[07:36] <heoyea> nop
[07:37] <zetui> i would like to understand what this command do :
[07:37] <semitones> i thought unity used a different sytsem for ntoificiations
[07:37] <zetui> tar -C /overlay -cvf - . | tar -C /mnt/sda1 -xf -
[07:37] <Stava> calamity, Did it just work out of the box for you? I've tried reinstalling to no avail :(
[07:37] <Guest18987> hy
[07:37] <Guest18987> anyone playing cs?
[07:38] <s0nee> zykotick9: ok nvm. i found a workaround. but it was interesting that i couldnt kill it no matter what i tried ...
[07:38] <heoyea> gnome chess only
[07:39] <zykotick9> s0nee, my guess would be that udev would just keep spawning it
[07:39] <calamity> stava - yes this is a brand new install
[07:40] <calamity> Apologies to anyone who has been here all day, but I've still found no real solution.
[07:40] <heoyea> ?
[07:40] <s0nee> zykotick9: idk but it didnt even disappear from 'top'. its not a zombie process. the parent is init so of course there was no way i could kill init ...
[07:40] <calamity> I have windows 7 and ubuntu side by side and windows 7 will not boot from grub
[07:40] <Stava> How do I know if i have "plain xchat" or "xchat gnome"? I'm reading step 3 of the first answer here http://askubuntu.com/questions/45793/xchat-disappearing-after-minimize-to-tray
[07:40] <Guest18987> www.cs-pl.com
[07:40] <Guest18987> www.cs-pgl.com
[07:41] <owner> why wont virtualbox on linux work!
[07:41] <iceroot> !ot | Guest18987
[07:41] <Guest18987> fesfe
[07:41] <heoyea> calamity: boot into Ubuntu and run sudo update-grub
[07:42] <Stava> I installed "xchat-indicator", it works and it's awesome :)
[07:42] <gunztunz> thanks iceroot
[07:42] <calamity> heoyea, alright, reboot now?
[07:43] <heoyea> calamity: sure
[07:46] <qiyong> how can I clean obsolete apt-mirror's? like jaunty

[07:50] <virtualint> show_desktop
[07:50] <virtualint> may someone help me
[07:50] <virtualint> about this
[07:51] <heoyea> qiyong: if u want to edit u can do, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:52] <Starminn> I keep getting "unhandled lockdown error (-5)" when I try to mount a device. What is this and how can I fix it?
[07:53] <Yeahhhhhhh> ubuntu off tiopic didnt help
[07:53] <Yeahhhhhhh> thanks for the dumb suggestion
[07:53] <semitones> hahahaha
[07:53] <qiyong> heoyea: i want to delete old versions like jaunty from my apt-mirror
[07:54] <qiyong> heoyea: plz don't teach me if you don't know apt-mirror
[07:54] <Kapoeira> Hmmm ... i just installed libcurl with sudo apt-get install php-curl ... but apt gives me a list of packets « that have been automatically installed and are no longer necessary » .... Is it really SAFE to remove them ?
[07:54] <virtualint> alt+f2 does not run
[07:54] <jussi> Kapoeira: just leave them imho
[07:54] <Yeahhhhhhh> ubuntu people really are the most unhelpful people in the world
[07:54] <Kapoeira> Those are python packets for the most
[07:55] <heoyea> Yeahhhhhhh: u came to the right place then
[07:55] <dr_willis> !info apt-mirror
[07:55] <soreau> Kapoeira: You can remove them with apt-get autoremove. If it removes anything you happened to need, you can simply reinstall the package
[07:55] <soreau> Kapoeira: Typically it's always safe to remove them
[07:56] <xerzaz> what's the easiest way to install wine on a box?
[07:56] <soreau> xerzaz: If the wine came in a box, you're already done
[07:56] <dr_willis> apt-get indtall wine
[07:56] <xerzaz> soreau: I'm not sure if it did
[07:57] <xerzaz> ok thx I'll check
[07:57] <dr_willis> !wine
[07:57] <soreau> dr_willis: Let's apt-get retarded in hah
[07:58] <xerzaz> I get
[07:58] <xerzaz> daghtgzd@chimera:~$ apt-get install wine
[07:58] <xerzaz> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied)
[07:58] <xerzaz> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[07:58] <soreau> xerzaz: try sudo apt-get install
[07:59] <xerzaz> already did then I get my user is not in the sudoers file or something
[07:59] <xerzaz> :/
[07:59] <soreau> xerzaz: Well then you need to add your user to the sudoers file
[07:59] <dr_willis> no you were not root.  :-)
[08:00] <dr_willis> !sudo
[08:00] <heoyea> sudo visudo
[08:00] <xerzaz> oki
[08:01] <calamity> back
[08:01] <calamity> and that didn't work
[08:01] <calamity> still no windows seven
[08:01] <xerzaz> soreau: it's a rented service maybe I'm not allowed?
[08:01] <xerzaz> or what you think?
[08:01] <calamity> I've also tried the repair cd, says there's no issues...
[08:02] <harsh343> how can i format the pendrive in ubuntu 11.10
[08:04] <dr_willis> gparted is handy harsh343
[08:04] <dddbmt> Morning Guys. Anyone know of a good solution for getting Google Calendar integrated into Thunderbird? It's for a Google account that is already setup in Thunderbird.
[08:04] <tonyyarusso> dddbmt: Doesn't Lightning just do it?  What's confusing?
[08:06] <harsh343> dr_willis, what ?
[08:06] <pixolin> hello. what is the name of the bubble help that pops up if I receive new e-mails, connect to a new wifi, receive twitter news ...?
[08:06] <alex_963> exit
[08:06] <alex_963> oh
[08:07] <dr_willis> !info gparted
[08:07] <heoyea> pixolin: think is called notify-osd
[08:08] <phil93> yup, notify-osd manages those notifications
[08:08] <pixolin> heoyea: do you know by chance if I can change the settings to shorten the time it displays messages?
[08:08] <rockband> hi guys, im having dns issues. server not found..can someone direct me to a path or guide to find why its causing this
[08:08] <pixolin> don't want to disable it but it's somewhat annoying if it shows up too long
[08:08] <heoyea> pixolin: i believe there was a tool to customize it, if u google a bit on that
[08:09] <_sivanov> installed ubuntu to fakeRAID, booted few times, then powered off machine, then it hang during the boot, on next boot after grub menu it shows only blinking cursor
[08:10] <pixolin> heoyea: thanks anyway, will google for that
[08:10] <MeanEYE> In 11.04 when installed apache followed symlinks without problem. In 11.10 although option is turned on it still complains that I don't have enough permissions.
[08:10] <_sivanov> failsafe mode boot also fails, it complains about uncompression error and panics
[08:11] <Malgorath> anyone know a good tutorial for setting up a secure authenticating smtp server?
[08:11] <heoyea> nop
[08:11] <tonyyarusso> rockband: First, what do you have set as your DNS server?  Clicking the network manager and selecting "Connection Information" will tell you.
[08:11] <tonyyarusso> Malgorath: "The Book of Postfix"
[08:12] <tonyyarusso> Malgorath: also https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/postfix.html
[08:12] <rockband> sorry, im on ssh
[08:12] <jasef> :/ I'm having a problem with my ~/.ssh/config, it's giving me an error when I try to use SSH now, if I pastebin the error and the scripts involved, would someone be able to help maybe?
[08:12] <rockband> installed bind9
[08:12] <heoyea> nop
[08:12] <Malgorath> thanks tonyyarusso
[08:12] <tonyyarusso> rockband: so you're trying to diagnose your own BIND configuration, not a client using it?
[08:13] <tonyyarusso> rockband: do you have forwarding addresses defined?
[08:13] <rockband> i think thats where the issue is..i spent a few hours and no luck
[08:14] <tonyyarusso> rockband: is the failing lookup for a domain hosted on your server or not?
[08:14] <ubuntu> how do i like boot in rescue mode?
[08:14] <Malgorath> tonyyarusso, i'm wanting to setup an outgoing only mail server(dreamhost smtp craps out ALOT) is there away to setup that? Like i'd have smtp.mydomain.com?
[08:14] <rockband> yes
[08:14] <tonyyarusso> ubuntu: Do you want to know how to like boot, or actually boot?
[08:15] <heoyea> boots with the fur
[08:15] <tonyyarusso> Malgorath: Yes - it's all in the book and in the online docs.
[08:15] <tonyyarusso> rockband: What's in your forwarders section, likely in named.conf.options?
[08:15] <tonyyarusso> bah, ignore that
[08:16] <Malgorath> okay i'll google around on setting up smtp only
[08:16] <tonyyarusso> rockband: can you pastebin the configs relevant to that zone?
[08:16] <ubuntu> boot in "rescue mode"
[08:16] <rockband> ok,one sec
[08:17] <tonyyarusso> rockband: Actually, are you sure you're even configured to ask the right machine?  It might be worth specifying localhost and the DNS server for the host lookup your testing.
[08:17] <Jordan_U> ubuntu: What is your end goal? (also, it would be easier to follow conversations with you if you changed your nick to something other than "ubuntu").
[08:17] <tonyyarusso> ubuntu: it should be an option on your grub menu during the boot sequence - just arrow down to it.
[08:17] <heoyea> lols
[08:17] <rockband> i have specified both, also specified forwarder, ip:..
[08:18] <comp83276> it just stopped booting for some reason.
[08:19] <comp83276> then i have to reinstall all over
[08:19] <html> hi
[08:20] <evan_> hello all
[08:21] <evan_> my speakers don't mute when i plug in my headphones, but the headphones work. Any fixes?
[08:22] <theadmin> html, evan_: Hello, and, again, welcome to the Aperture Science computer-aided... errr... Ubuntu support channel.
[08:22] <comp83276> so there is not something similar to "rescue mode" in ubuntu?
[08:22] <theadmin> evan_: Mute your speakers manually? I mean, hey, it's not that big of a deal.
[08:22] <theadmin> comp83276: There is the "recovery mode" in the boot menu, that not good enough?
[08:22] <comp83276> or "fix a broken boot" type of thing?
[08:22] <evan_> well its on a laptop, so muting my speakers all sound
[08:23] <evan_> *mutes all sound
[08:23] <comp83276> how do i get to t hat boot menu?
[08:23] <html> lol theadmin   thanks for the warm welcome
[08:23] <theadmin> evan_: No, use a thing like pavucontrol or even the standard mixer and just mute the "PCM" channel
[08:23] <theadmin> comp83276: I think you need to hold Left Shift during boot
[08:24] <lapion> evan_, there usually are 2 3.5mm audio outputs on laptops besides speakers..
[08:24] <comp83276> ok i can try that, anyone else?
[08:24] <html> any one good at tell me whats better for my hardware needs ?
[08:24] <theadmin> html: Just one serious advice: No friggin' ATI graphic cards.
[08:25] <html> any one good at tell me whats better for my hardware needs ? as in which motherboard ,
[08:25] <html> really?
[08:25] <evan_> theadmin: that's the simplest idea yet, thanks
[08:26] <theadmin> html: Yeah, they're always a huge problem somehow, anything else usually works... Well, there are some issues with some Bluetooth/Wi-Fi chipsets, but idk which exactly
[08:26] <html>  why so ? is the  ati  better with the software part?
[08:26] <comp83276> ok i will try, thanks!
[08:26] <theadmin> html: NVidia is much more supported
[08:26] <html> theadmin,  ok what about this carrd?
[08:27] <theadmin> html: "this" being?
[08:27] <html> http://www.compusa.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=6680894&sku=G458-0450
[08:28] <theadmin> html: I think that should work fine
[08:29] <html> so what brand do i have ?
[08:29] <html> http://www.compusa.com/cgi-bin/shoppingcart.asp    my cart
[08:29] <theadmin> html: "GeForce" makes me think it's an NVidia...
[08:29] <theadmin> html: And that's not your cart at all, I can't look at your purchases just from that link, they are only visible to you -_-
[08:30] <html> oh ,  well do you want to ?
[08:30] <theadmin> html: Not really.
[08:31] <Slartibart> Why "screen locked, enter password.." when I select Hibernate in the upper right corner menu?
[08:31] <theadmin> html: Again, well, Linux is quite hardware-friendly out of the box, there are rare issues with specific devices
[08:31] <Slartibart> *Why do I get
[08:31] <rabbi1> How to recover data from a laptop hardisk ?
[08:31] <theadmin> Slartibart: Well, after the PC wakes up, the screen is locked, that's normal
[08:32] <theadmin> rabbi1: Difficult. You may try using PhotoRec (a part of Testdisk as of now), but I can't really say how well that would work
[08:32] <rabbi1> theadmin: :(
[08:33] <rabbi1> how can i connect this HDD. I got a new one now, which i am using. The vendor said it's not possible.
[08:33] <stanman246> hi, i've got a h.264 avi from my digital camera and want to edit it to upload to youtube. Never done this before, anyone knows how the heck i could do that? (1st time, obviously...)
[08:33] <scriptwarlock> rabbi1, is your laptop dead?
[08:33] <rabbi1> scriptwarlock: yeap...
[08:34] <html> theadmin,  i am being picky  cuz i amd doing this for a customer  and said that i cuz make a semi -future proof computer,  in which i can mess up ..... and now im stuck  at which motherbaord to pick
[08:34] <rabbi1> scriptwarlock: i got a now one, working well with my laptop. what can i do with the old one for data ?
[08:34] <theadmin> html: Any, seriously... Linux doesn't care what your motherboard is. I just suggest you pick one with BIOS rather than EFI.
[08:35] <r000t_mlt> Guys, remember that clicking noise yesterday? Mobo reports the drives failing. Ubuntu confirms. So I have here a 4TB external, and I need to back up a failing 328GB partition. What's the best way to do this?
[08:35] <scriptwarlock> rabbi1, detach the hard drive
[08:35] <jasef> :) fixed my .ssh problem
[08:35] <rabbi1> scriptwarlock: yeah, it;s on my table now
[08:35] <scriptwarlock> rabbi1, you have an enclosure for that?
[08:35] <html> theadmin,  really????!!!!  i was about to get one ,  !               so why not efi ?
[08:36] <rabbi1> scriptwarlock: nope
[08:36] <theadmin> html: Well, it requires a specific kernel iirc, I'm not sure if Ubuntu has one supporting that
[08:36] <scriptwarlock> rabbi1, nothing you can do if you wont connect it using some enclosures with a usb
[08:37] <Slartibart> theadmin: Yeah, but this happens before the pc goes to sleep. It never really hibernates, just switches to screen locked mode.
[08:37] <theadmin> html: Besides, if your customers decide to install Windows, and specifically a pre-Windows 8 version, it won't work
[08:37] <theadmin> Slartibart: Do you have a swap partition? Is it mounted?
[08:37] <rabbi1> scriptwarlock: o got to buy then, what should i buy? its called and enclosure?
[08:37] <azerty> azerty
[08:37] <html> will EFI  ever be supported?
[08:38] <scriptwarlock> rabbi1, http://www.google.com.ph/search?gcx=w&q=laptop+hard+drive+enclosure&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&biw=1139&bih=695&sei=%20yFKyTqyAN4ufiAe3ocScAg
[08:38] <Slartibart> theadmin: swapon -s and free -m seem to say so, yes.
[08:38] <theadmin> html: It is, again, but requires a special kernel configuration thing. Since EFI is not a major deal right now... I see no need to support it, honestly.
[08:38] <theadmin> Slartibart: Okay, weird.
[08:38] <JapyDooge> o/ good morning =)
[08:38] <Slartibart> theadmin: Word ;-7..
[08:39] <theadmin> Slartibart: ...?
[08:39] <html> theadmin,  THANKS!
[08:39] <Slartibart> theadmin: I agree with what you were saying
[08:39] <rabbi1> scriptwarlock: ok, got it. will buy one, what next? which software to use for recovery?
[08:40] <theadmin> html: No problems
[08:40] <dddbmt> tonyyarusso, Sorry someone wanted to talk to me. But I don't know about lightning. I might very well fix my problem with getting google calendar into thundebird
[08:40] <tonyyarusso> dddbmt: it's the only way of getting any calendar into Thunderbird as far as I know
[08:41] <stanman246> rabbil: look into ddrescue
[08:41] <dddbmt> Okay - I'll give it a try then. Thank you very much! :) tonyyarusso
[08:42] <stanman246> dddbmt, i'm using a google cal with thunderbird and lightning
[08:42] <stanman246> works like a charm
[08:42] <scriptwarlock> rabbi1, just plug the enclosure to your new laptop and ubuntu will detect it for you
[08:42] <dddbmt> sounds great stanman246 :)
[08:42] <MeanEYE> Anyone knows why my apache2 won't follow symlinks although in configuration it is turned on?
[08:42] <stanman246> dddbmt, using it with tb7.01
[08:42] <stanman246> you could also use sunbird, which is the full calendar app
[08:43] <JapyDooge> MeanEYE: maybe wrong rights on the destination file?
[08:43] <html> MeanEYE,  i geuss restart it , or pc running it
[08:43] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: Am linking directory.
[08:43] <dddbmt> stanman246, same as I got! (7.01). It's a little important that it's google calendar as it's for work.
[08:43] <tak_> สวัสดี
[08:43] <JapyDooge> then rights on the destination folder MeanEYE? :)
[08:43] <MeanEYE> html: tried restarting apache itself. Don't see the point in restarting computer.
[08:43] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: 0775 on all files.
[08:44] <JapyDooge> also on the folder itself?
[08:44] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: Yes.
[08:44] <JapyDooge> hmmm
[08:44] <JapyDooge> what error you get?
[08:44] <JapyDooge> in the errors.log
[08:44] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: drwxrwxr-x 10 meaneye meaneye 4096 2011-11-03 09:31 Web
[08:44] <MeanEYE> Give me a moment
[08:44] <JapyDooge> k :)
[08:44] <html> MeanEYE,  it cuz be the sever got to hot ? or some thing hardware wise is not right
[08:44] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: You don't have permission to access /shenkin on this server.
[08:44] <JapyDooge> ah
[08:45] <JapyDooge> MeanEYE: on what user runs your apache? (i think default is www-data)
[08:45] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: default one... www-data
[08:45] <JapyDooge> i think you might want to try a 'chown -R www-data:www-data /shenkin'
[08:45] <MeanEYE> html: this is linux. Not windows.
[08:46] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: Tried, not working. But I'll try again.
[08:46] <JapyDooge> because it's set 7 for user, but the user is you and not www-data
[08:46] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: Same.
[08:46] <JapyDooge> hmmm
[08:46] <JapyDooge> thats strange
[08:46] <html> MeanEYE,  lol oh  yeahhh("kool aid man")
[08:46] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: Yeah. I've been hitting my head with this for an hour now.
[08:47] <JapyDooge> lol
[08:47] <MeanEYE> html: I can restart it but it wont help.
[08:47] <JapyDooge> lemme think for a sec xD
[08:47] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: Okies.
[08:48] <JapyDooge> MeanEYE: how did you enable the symlinks?
[08:48] <JapyDooge> Options FollowSymLinks in the directory directive?
[08:48] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: They should be enabled by default... but yes... that's the way they are enabled.
[08:48] <html> MeanEYE,  its just thinking about the basics , which for servers cooling is a big one , but  its a though
[08:48] <MeanEYE> html: Not a server. :D My development machine. :D
[08:48] <JapyDooge> ahh i'm not sure if its enabled by default for all vhosts
[08:49] <JapyDooge> but yea
[08:49] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: not a vhost, just default /var/www site.
[08:49] <JapyDooge> should work then
[08:49] <JapyDooge> ah
[08:49] <JapyDooge> wtf :P
[08:49] <FloodBot1> JapyDooge: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:49] <html> MeanEYE,  whats that?
[08:49] <MeanEYE> html: A normal PC which has no problems with heating :D
[08:49] <ubuntu> -
[08:49] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: Weird, I know. And usually it worked out of the box... Now it doesn't.
[08:50]  * JapyDooge boots ubuntu server vm, try to have the same problem :p
[08:50] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: Hm, I could create vhost. The same way phpmyadmin is doing. That would solve my problem I guess.
[08:50] <JapyDooge> probely yea
[08:51] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: I'll do it that way. Thank you anyway :D
[08:51] <JapyDooge> gl :)
[08:51] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: Thanks. :D
[08:51] <JapyDooge> i'll try anyway, want to see what goes wrong lol
[08:51] <JapyDooge> ^^
[08:51] <MeanEYE> html: Thanks for suggestions though :D
[08:52]  * JapyDooge steals bastidrazor's crazy chicken
[08:52] <Slartibart> I get "snapshot_ioctl: ioctl '4004330a' is deprecated and will be removed soon, update your suspend-to-disk utilities" when I try to hibernate. But how to update that??
[08:53] <Slartibart> I'm running 11.10, and update-manager says it is all updated..
[08:54] <html> MeanEYE,  if your like me  i take i  6core 32 gb of ram  and 2tb  and turn it in to a beast , gaming, server , video, making 30 web tabs open, and like 5 more thing  at the same time
[08:54] <MeanEYE> html: :D well, I don't have powerful computers... but this laptop is fairly strong. I use my machines for development only. Thenk software is deployed elsewhere.
[08:55] <html> and linux can do it all, picky at times  but yeah  MeanEYE
[08:56] <JapyDooge> Slartibart: seems to be a kernel issue when i look around a bit
[08:56] <JapyDooge> i'm not too much into that sadly, but i hope it gets updated soon
[08:56] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: Weird. Even with alias I get the same error. It's deffinately problem with permissions but I fail to see what.
[08:56] <html> MeanEYE,  well i do either but if i did  have the money , which is bout 890$   i  might
[08:56] <JapyDooge> hm wtf :p
[08:57] <JapyDooge> MeanEYE: can u compare permissions of the phpmyadmin folder and yours?
[08:57] <JapyDooge> or set it 777 :P
[08:57]  * JapyDooge runs
[08:57] <Loptr> Heelo
[08:57] <MeanEYE> html: Agree. But still I like playing with a weaker machines because then I get to see how site behaves "under load"
[08:57] <Loptr> after login in, the there are small loading dots everywhere on the screem (the ubuntu loading)
[08:57] <Loptr> anyone know how to fix that?
[08:58] <Slartibart> JapyDooge: Oh, ok =/. Well, I have never messed with the kernel before so I guess I shouldn't do it now. Thanks.
[08:58] <r000t__mlt> I want to use dd_rescue to save a drive, but I'm not sure if it will wipe the destination drive. The goal is to write to a file on the destination drive. Is this the default behavior?
[08:59] <theadmin> r000t__mlt: Um, depends -- if you specify the destination like "/media/your_drive/file.img" it will write to the file, if you specify it like "/dev/sda1" it will write to the drive itself
[08:59] <JapyDooge> might be fixed in the next update Slartibart :)
[08:59] <JapyDooge> not sure if there is a bug report out
[08:59] <r000t__mlt> Now, here's the kicker. I just got done backing up a RAID I just blew up onto this external, so a lot is at risk here. Have you used dd_rescue in the past?
[09:00] <theadmin> r000t__mlt: You know, reading the manual and understanding the basics is enough.
[09:00] <r000t__mlt> I've been reading the manual but I want to be 100% sure it won't overwrite the partition like what is implied.
[09:01] <theadmin> r000t__mlt: Read my message again.
[09:01] <chandru_in> my wireless has been working fine since 10.04 untill 11.10. With 11.10, the network menu says "device not ready". Doesn't say "missing firmware" though.
[09:01] <r000t__mlt> So you're 100% positive it will write to a file?
[09:01] <theadmin> r000t__mlt: The partition is also a file, under /dev. So if you specify that as an output file, it WILL overwrite it.
[09:01] <theadmin> r000t__mlt: If you specify a place on the partition's mountpoint, e.g. /media/whatever/backup.img, it will write to that.
[09:01] <r000t__mlt> Okay
[09:01] <r000t__mlt> thanks :D
[09:02] <chandru_in> has anyone else had problem with wireless in 11.10
[09:02] <html> MeanEYE,  very agree  , i just add that i hope you can put it on a scale  , like google mail  when your pc cant or is to slow put an option   to fix the page to load faster, (please moble cell and netbook friendly )  and it is nice it write a app so it can tell whats going on and it auto optimzed itself,
[09:03] <bhavesh> I should not move Windows C partition with /boot flag?
[09:03] <bhavesh> http://i.imgur.com/YzbiV.png

[09:03] <html> MeanEYE,  cuz im sick for pages nOT loading corretly on my netbook

[09:04] <Slartibart> JapyDooge: I'll hold my breath ;)
[09:05] <ubuntubhoy> Morning guys, can anyone help remove/reset the config files for OnBoard keyboard ?
[09:05] <Slartibart> Is there a logical explanation for why I get "cryptsetup: WARNING: failed to detect canonical device of /dev/sda3"? None of my partitions are supposed to be encrypted.
[09:05] <JapyDooge> haha gl Slartibart, if you want to see if there is a bugreport on that issue, check the trackers on launchpad.net :)
[09:06] <RobinJ> Help? My cursor keeps spinning and it's driving me nuts >.< I can't see where I'm clicking if it's always  round
[09:07] <MeanEYE> JapyDooge: Any luck?
[09:07] <JapyDooge> yea
[09:08] <JapyDooge> firing up the test machine, forgot to connect network and keyboard
[09:08] <JapyDooge> lol
[09:09] <bhavesh> theadmin, but isnt MBR another space of memory in CPU other than Hard drive? So why does it affect if I move a partition? I guess grub2 does not store boot information on mbr while win7 does?
[09:10] <theadmin> bhavesh: err... No, MBR is the first few sectors of the hard drive
[09:10] <bhavesh> ok
[09:13] <shadowhate> why doesn't my all desktop have the netbook-launcher-efl ?
[09:13] <perlzoc>  hi there is anybody able to configure TSOCKS?
[09:14] <perlzoc> hello
[09:14] <xerzaz> what is the cmd to download through cmd line?
[09:14] <theadmin> xerzaz: wget
[09:14] <odb|fidel> xerzaz: wget is 1 option
[09:14] <xerzaz> thx
[09:14] <bhavesh> theadmin, my first partition is empty (30GB). I want to use that space so should I change my boot flag to first partition or keep 30GB empty? By default the boot flag was on C drive
[09:14] <bhavesh> http://i.imgur.com/INoef.png
[09:14] <linda_> wget  URL
[09:15] <perlzoc>  hi there is anybody able to configure TSOCKS?
[09:15] <xerzaz> and how to unpack it in cmd?
[09:15] <theadmin> bhavesh: That is not a partition
[09:15] <xerzaz> it's a tar.gz file
[09:15] <theadmin> xerzaz: tar xf whatever.tar.gz
[09:15] <xerzaz> oki thx
[09:15] <bhavesh> boot flag should always be at first partition?
[09:15] <linda_> en
[09:15] <theadmin> bhavesh: boot flag should be wherever the bootloader is, OR at the Windows partition if you have one
[09:15] <bhavesh> I wanted to make it a partition.. it is unused
[09:16] <bhavesh> ok
[09:16] <babilen> bhavesh: The bootflag is irrelevant when you use linux
[09:16] <bhavesh> ok
[09:16] <Mitchell_> Is it possible to use gnome 2 on the latest version of ubuntu?
[09:16] <shadowhate> anybody can help about netbook-launcher-efl?
[09:16] <theadmin> babilen: Windows won't boot if it's partition has no bootflag, though
[09:16] <perlzoc>  hi there is anybody able to configure TSOCKS?
[09:16] <ultrav1olet> I know this will sound crazy but can anyone running Intel Core 9XX or 2600(K) CPU let me ssh into their system for a little while?
[09:16] <kints> hi i'm having trouble starting Xserver in ubuntu since i upgraded to 11.10, i have an nvidia quadra nvs295 anyone can help me about what can i do to make it work again (i'm a newbie in linux)?
[09:16] <theadmin> Mitchell_: No, you can use the Gnome3 fallback, though. Or XFCE ^_^
[09:17] <jasef> !anyone | shadowhate
[09:17] <babilen> theadmin: Yes, hence the "when you use linux" :)
[09:17] <ultrav1olet> Or run a few tests for me.
[09:17] <jasef> ultrav1olet, you're right, it does sound crazy :3
[09:18] <shadowhate> not all my desktop has the netbook-launcher-efl interface, and at start i need to xkill and point it to the desktop to reveal the netbook-launcher-efl :(
[09:18] <Mitchell_> theadmin: do i just download the normal version for gnome 3? also, if i wanted to change it i could just install another one right?
[09:18] <ultrav1olet> jasef: I have no problems letting anyone on my computer
[09:18] <bhavesh> is fat32 better than ntfs?
[09:18] <ultrav1olet> if it's really necessary
[09:18] <chaospsychex> bhavesh: yes!
[09:18] <ultrav1olet> bhavesh: no
[09:18] <jasef> ultrav1olet, lol. I understand that, it's just a rather specific request.
[09:18] <odb|fidel> bhavesh: define better
[09:18] <rumpel> bhavesh, depends
[09:19] <theadmin> Mitchell_: You can apt-get install gnome-shell to use the traditional GNOME3 interface, gnome-panel to use the old-style gnome2-like one (note that you can not add or remove applets) or xfce4 in order to use XFCE (which is VERY gnome2-like)
[09:19] <chaospsychex> yes its better
[09:19] <bhavesh> betteR: faster file copying
[09:19] <odb|fidel> asking for better usually smeels like a wrong question ;)
[09:19] <bhavesh> yes..
[09:19] <perlzoc>  hi there is anybody able to configure TSOCKS?

[09:22] <jasef> Installing tsocks 1.8beta5-9.2 to see if I get any complications.
[09:22] <CobraKhan007> for my 8800gt.
[09:22] <rumpel> perlzoc, again: whats the problem? you just have to set the server(ip), the port and maybe the type...
[09:22] <kints> CobraKhan007: how can i blacklist noveau driver, from live cd ? (sorry i'm kind of newbie)
[09:23] <jasef> perlzoc, don't you just have to change 'server' to your server IP, and 'server_port' to the port?
[09:23] <snille> How can I disable the "snap window to fullscreen/halfscreen" function in Ubuntu 11.10?
[09:23] <jasef> perlzoc, looks like some proxies need 'server_type' as well though
[09:24] <perlzoc> http://pastebin.com/TihWHFe4
[09:24] <perlzoc> here is my configuration
[09:24] <perlzoc> http://pastebin.com/TihWHFe4
[09:24] <jasef> perlzoc, what's the problem with that?
[09:25] <Anon356> testing xchat client
[09:25] <perlzoc> jasef:  this is the problem http://pastebin.com/PkjUqfF2
[09:26] <jasef> perlzoc, Hmm... seems like it's saying it only wants to play with hosts that are on a local network.
[09:27] <perlzoc> .(
[09:27] <jasef> perlzoc, I'm looking to see if it's possible to change this behaviour
[09:27] <phlak_user> perlzoc, whats on line 18 of your config file?
[09:27] <jasef> phlak_user, local = <IP_ADDRESS>/<IP_ADDRESS> <- line 18
[09:27] <jasef> Got it from the pastebin he posted earlier.
[09:28] <perlzoc> Is anybody here that use TSOCKS ??
[09:28] <jasef> It might be possible to just tell it that the socks address is local, but that might cause weird behaviour, I don't know.
[09:28] <perlzoc> jasef:  take a look here http://tsocks.sourceforge.net/faq.php#local
[09:28] <perlzoc> jasef:  i didn't understand what means
[09:29] <phlak_user> perlzoc, is your paths configured properly?
[09:29] <perlzoc> phlak_user:  what means? do you have experience about Tsocks ?
[09:29] <jasef> You could try settings that to 'local = <IP_ADDRESS>/<IP_ADDRESS>'
[09:30] <phlak_user> perlzoc, none at all; just learning along with you
[09:30] <perlzoc> phlak_user: thanks for helping
[09:30] <jasef> perlzoc, if you make the change I suggested, tell me how it works?
[09:31] <perlzoc> wait
[09:31] <Mitchell_> Ive got a 64 bit cpu and 2gb ram, should i get the 64 bit or 32?
[09:32] <perlzoc> jasef: Gtk-Message: (for origin information, set GTK_DEBUG): failed to retrieve property `GtkTreeView::odd-row-color' of type `GdkColor' from rc file value "((GString*) 0x95c3050)" of type `GString'
[09:32] <perlzoc> jasef:  and the zattoo player stay blanck
[09:32] <perlzoc> blank
[09:32] <ultrav1olet> Mitchell_: anything you like, I prefer 32bit even with my 8GB of RAM
[09:33] <phlak_user> jasef, that might not work - Local subnets - Networks that can be accessed directly without assistance from a socks server
[09:33] <jasef> phlak_user, exactly - the socks server shouldn't need a socks server to help access it.
[09:33] <_sivanov> is there any good tutorial how to convert current ubuntu installation to software raid (no fakeraid)
[09:34] <jasef> perlzoc, hold on a moment, I'm trying to see what happens when I use the settings, or does your server need authentication?
[09:34] <perlzoc> no no no is a free proxy swiss server
[09:35] <jasef> Do you know if it's SOCKS4 or SOCKS5?
[09:35] <phlak_user> perlzoc, you havent changed any thing inside paths except for the server ip
[09:35] <jasef> phlak_user, that shouldn't matter - paths only takes effect when accessing the specified IP.
[09:35] <perlzoc> jasef: free swiss proxy server <IP_ADDRESS>:8080
[09:35] <perlzoc> jasef:  on my browser works properly setted as proxy 5
[09:36] <phlak_user> jasef, perlzoc why does he need tsocks again?
[09:36] <jasef> phlak_user, don't really know. it wasn't explained that I saw
[09:36] <perlzoc> phlak_user:  i have changed also other stuff as my machine IP
[09:36] <perlzoc> phlak_user:  i need tsocks to proxify and applications so it will use a proxy
[09:37] <phlak_user> perlzoc, ok you will setup tsocks as a proxy server for your applications?
[09:38] <perlzoc> phlak_user:  yes then i will laung tsocks + app name to make it works with that
[09:39] <jasef> perlzoc, funny thing. With my configuration set to your proxy server - I get no errors, but using tsocks on firefox for example doesn't change anything
[09:39] <jasef> It still connects via my main internet connection.
[09:39] <perlzoc> jasef:  can u pastebin your configuration ?
[09:41] <phlak_user> perlzoc, jasef inspectsocks <IP_ADDRESS> 8080 takes forever
[09:41] <jasef> I'm aware - using tsocks on bash makes my internet simply stop lol.
[09:41] <ronin___> Hi
[09:42] <ronin___> anybody knows how I can connect to a vpn connect?
[09:42] <makara> trying to get help on a phpmyadmin issue. no-one in forum, and php is invite only. ideas?
[09:42] <jasef> However, my configuration seems solid.
[09:42] <phlak_user> jasef, perlzoc now it says this -> inspectsocks: Server disconnected, probably not a socks server
[09:42] <perlzoc> phlak_user:  ???????????
[09:43] <phlak_user> perlzoc, there is a utility called inspectsocks which gives some info about the socks server (eg v5 or 4 etc)
[09:43] <perlzoc> ok
[09:43] <MartinYu> mobibot: weather ZBAA
[09:43] <phlak_user> !details| ronin___
[09:43] <phlak_user> makara, ask away; we'll try
[09:43] <jasef> perlzoc, the socks server doesn't seem to be responding at all. I will still paste my configuration however, as it does work. You would still have to change the IP to a working server though, as the one you provided doesn't seem to work. http://paste.ubuntu.com/727085/
[09:44] <jasef> phlak_user, is inspectsocks in the repositories?
[09:44] <phlak_user> jasef, it gets installed along with tsocks
[09:44] <Spartakus> !id
[09:45] <phlak_user> jasef, also validateconf, a useful utility to check config
[09:45] <perlzoc> jasef:  this server works 100% using firefox and foxyproxy s
[09:46] <jasef> perlzoc, Are you sure that it's the same IP? And is definitely a SOCKS proxy and not a HTTP proxy?
[09:46] <jatt> how do I tell google chrome to use libreoffice to open .docx files?
[09:46] <phlak_user> perlzoc, doesnt work for me in firefox
[09:47] <jasef> perlzoc, phlak_user, perhaps it's region restricted.
[09:47] <jasef> phlak_user, perlzoc, I can telnet into it, but it instantly disconnects me
[09:47] <phlak_user> jasef, could be
[09:47] <Spartakus> This morning, my Lucid Lynx suddenly used GNOME Shell. After a while, she told me that she wants a cigarette. After I gave her the cigarette, she wanted to get rid the shell and my lovely classic GNOME back!
[09:47] <jatt> when I try to open a .docx file, chrome opens the Archive Manager.
[09:47] <jatt> is there a way to configure it to open libreoffice instead?
[09:47] <Lantizia> Hey can I have something that can watch what files are made/edited before I run a script?  I've seen 'inotify' but I'm looking for something that implements inotify maybe as a service?
[09:47] <Lantizia> i just wanna see what a script has meddled with
[09:48] <jasef> perlzoc, try the config I linked you too, see if it works for you. Could you also paste the results of inspectsocks <IP_ADDRESS> 8080 ?
[09:48] <Spartakus> jatt, yes, you can use ubuntu tweak. it is very easy to do rather than manually
[09:48] <windparadise> after my recent configuration, when i ping my mx record, ping mx.berylhost.com it gives a reply meanwhile in my terminal, hostname --fqdn returns hostname: Name or service not known     also when I tried restarting apache, I have this error. root@berylhost:~# /etc/init.d/apache2 restartRestarting web server: apache2apache2: apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for berylhostapache2: Could not...

[09:49] <xerzaz> is it possible to unpack a .zip file in ubuntu from cmd?
[09:49] <jatt> Spartakus: I could try ubuntu teak, but I am using ubuntu 11.10 and ubuntu teak's page says it is only available as alpha version for 11.10
[09:49] <phlak_user> jatt, go to "under the hood"  and set helper applications
[09:49] <jatt> Spartakus: so how can I do it manually?
[09:50] <phlak_user> xerzaz, yes, unzip file.zip
[09:50] <jasef> xerzaz, yes, using 'unzip filename.zip'
[09:50] <xerzaz> oki thx
[09:50] <phlak_user> !info unzip | xerzaz
[09:50] <sludge> can someone please give me the backtrack channel name

[09:51] <Math^> hello, does anyone know where I can get the Revolution OS movie in high quality?
[09:51] <Spartakus> jatt, just right click the docx file, then choose properties. Choose open with tab. Delete everything inside it and add libreoffice
[09:51] <phlak_user> jatt, ok just found out; chrome uses mozplugger to figure out helper apps
[09:51] <Spartakus> jatt, after that, when you want to open docx file, it will opened with libreoffice
[09:51] <sludge> hello
[09:52] <sludge> the name of the backtrack channel?

[09:57] <lazymanc> hi - I want to add aptana to the launcher bar in unity, but it seems adding apps that weren't installed is a pain
[09:57] <lazymanc> I've tried creating an aptana.desktop file and dragging it to the launcher but nothing happens
[09:58] <lazymanc> is there a way to get custom apps to appear in the launcher?
[09:58] <windparadise> at first, my default hostname is berylhost.com but while trying to install gplhost, I am asked to change my host to mx.berylhost.com   which I did
[09:58] <jatt> !op
[09:58] <Myrtti> jatt: yes?
[09:59] <deej1976> lazymanc: If you launch the app from terminal, does an icon appear int the launcher?
[09:59] <jatt> /say Myrtti could you please ban sludge? he is being rude. he wrote the following:
 anybody in here want to suck my cock?
[09:59] <Myrtti> jatt: a) why repeat it b) he left
[09:59] <jatt> alright thanks
[09:59] <lazymanc> deej1976: yes, but if you tick keep in launcher and then close the app, it won't open again from that icon
[10:00] <deej1976> lazymanc: grrr
[10:00] <lazymanc> the icon stays in the launcher but it doesn't do anything

[10:09] <vani> myrtti: yes
[10:10] <gentooxer> vani: for what do you need postgres?
[10:10] <lazymanc> deej1976: thanks, looking at that now but the path it suggests (.gconf/desktop/unity) doesn't exist, there's .gconf/desktop/unity-2d but I'm definitely using the full 3d one as compiz is running

[10:21] <milligan_> I have a computer here with a graphics card on the motherboard and a card (ATI :-( ) that's plugged into some slot. As of now, I'm running on the card that's plugged into some slot (I don't know the slot type, and cba to open the box). Ubuntu doesn't detect both displays. Does that mean I cannot run two monitors on this comp ?
[10:22] <Mitchell_> plug in 2 displays and it should recognise both
[10:22] <Mitchell_> if not, get drivers
[10:23] <milligan_> It doesn't :(

[10:35] <chaospsychex> ur ? is?
[10:36] <Mitchell_> do you have to be using kde to run audacity? or judt have it installed
[10:36] <vani> hi
[10:37] <rani> hi
[10:37] <MonkeyDust> Mitchell_: audacity can be used in gnome
[10:37] <rani> i want to install the openbravo on ubuntu
[10:37] <Guest48839> hi ho)
[10:37] <scotty^> milligan: hold on a moment
[10:37] <rani> but i don't know
[10:37] <MonkeyDust> rani: what's keeping you?
[10:38] <deej1976> Mitchell_: Just sudi apt-get install audacity
[10:38] <rani> which command using
[10:38] <deej1976> sudi = sudo
[10:38] <Mitchell_> so you dont need kde?
[10:38] <rani> monkeyDust:hi
[10:38] <deej1976> Mitchell_: nope
[10:38] <MonkeyDust> rani: if it's in the repos: apt-get install openbravo
[10:38] <Mitchell_> or will it sort it out
[10:39] <rani> monkeyDust: ok i wil try
[10:39] <deej1976> Mitchell_: kde is not required
[10:40] <scotty^> milligan: which is supposed to be connected?  DFP1 (your LCD flatscreen) or CRT1 (your big cathode ray tube monitor)?
[10:40] <milligan_> scotty^, an LCD for sure.
[10:41] <MissingPerson> ok, so can anyone help me figure out what part i need?  the lcd on my laptop is only showing half the screen.  when i first turn it on, the right side shows white and yellow lines then goes black, the middle of the screen has nothing but white and red
[10:41] <rani> monkeyDust: output Couldn't find package openbravo
[10:41] <MissingPerson> and for about a year or two i have had red and yellow vertical lines going down the left side
[10:41] <chaospsychex> da screen is done dude
[10:41] <scotty^> milligan:  So you want to connect two LCD's, but it only recognises one?
[10:42] <Mitchell_> i judt realised i didnt mean audacity. i meant want amarok
[10:42] <dr_willis> MissingPerson:  they even in the bios/post screens?
[10:42] <MonkeyDust> rani: it means it is not in the repos
[10:42] <scotty^> milligan:  Are you sure the ATI card is being used and not your Sandy Bridge graphics?
[10:42] <MissingPerson> dr_willis: yes
[10:42] <milligan_> scotty^, pretty sure. Ubuntu suggested to install the fglrx driver etc..
[10:42] <rani> MonkeyDust: yes
[10:43] <dr_willis> MissingPerson:  so is the screen useable at all?
[10:43] <MonkeyDust> rani, openbravo is something commercial, is what i read here
[10:43] <MissingPerson> dr_willis: no, half the screen shows nothing but black, looks like the pac man kill screen
[10:44] <scotty^> milligan: It sounds like you might be one of the lucky people who can switch between the integratged Sandy Bridge graphics and the discrete ATI graphics in your BIOS.  AFAIK, using both at the same time is not supported.
[10:44] <MonkeyDust> rani: openbravo is the name of a company
[10:45] <dr_willis> MissingPerson:  guven the cost of parts... and the dificulty of fixing the things..  better to invest in a new laptop.
[10:45] <MonkeyDust> it is not a program
[10:45] <deej1976> Mitchell_: sudo apt-get install amarok , and this will pull down all the required libraries
[10:45] <MissingPerson> don't have the money for a new laptop
[10:45] <Mitchell_> i was thinking of amarok, so really my question is do i need to be using kde for amarok or just have it installed?
[10:45] <milligan_> scotty^, wohoo :) Alright, that just confirms my suspicion. I'll go hunting for a proper GFX card.
[10:46] <dr_willis> i doubt if you have the money for parts then. it may cost more than a new laptop
[10:46] <deej1976> Mitchell_: No you can use kde under gnome, but some might not look correct.
[10:46] <Mitchell_> ok
[10:47] <deej1976> MissingPerson: How much of the screen is visible if you go into the bios?
[10:47] <dr_willis> MissingPerson:  check on ebay perhaps for a used one.
[10:48] <scotty^> milligan:  U have an ATI Radeon HD5450, correct?
[10:48] <MissingPerson> I'm in China, cost of shipping even a used one to me now is prohibitive.  same amount of the screen is visible, like half or a 3rd
[10:48] <MissingPerson> and it's an acer laptop, checked on ebay, and if i could get the screen, it's like $100
[10:49] <chaospsychex> what the hell are you doing in china?

[10:53] <stormz> hi guys, I have just updated from ubuntu 11.04 to 11.10 and I don't have a network or internet. I received a message during the upgrade that samba4 had a problem installing
[10:53] <Guest1329> anyone who knows how to set up irssi w/ TOR
[10:53] <JapyDooge> samba cant cause you to have no netwerk at all i think
[10:53] <stormz> I am wanting to know if there is a way to apt-get install to a mounted drive from the live cd?
[10:54] <MonkeyDust> rani: openbravo erp is a commercial product, www.openbravo.com
[10:54] <Ebosh3r> anyone who knows how to set up irssi w/ TOR???
[10:54] <Spartakus> MonkeyDust, but there is the open source version of the openbrave
[10:55] <jasef> Does anyone know if Samba in Ubuntu can mount a folder that I have access to on the network if I don't have read access to the directory list of the parent folder? That's how my shared drives work at my college, and they work fine in Windows, but I can't make it work in linux
[10:55] <qmr> jasef: ask #samba
[10:55] <stormz> Japy, thanks for responding.. It is the only thing I have changed, network worked in 11.04 prior to 11.11 upgrade.
[10:55] <jasef> qmr, thanks. I wasn't aware there was a #samba channel :)
[10:55] <deej1976>  rani: http://www.openbravo.com/downloads/files/ -> Ubuntu installation
[10:56] <qmr> [themoreyouknow]
[10:56] <odb|fidel> jasef: there is a channel for almost everything in freenode ;)
[10:56] <JapyDooge> Ebosh3r: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/TorifyHOWTO#Abouttorsocks
[10:56] <deej1976> rani: does refer to 10.04 though
[10:56] <stormz> I may have uninstalled samba4 completely including all dependencies from synaptic though? This worked from 10.10 to 11..04 as I had the same samba4 error appear
[10:57] <MonkeyDust> Spartakus: rani : it is opensource, but not free
[10:57] <Ebosh3r> JopyDooge I want to know how to use it w/ Irssi :( pidgin is g4y
[10:57] <Spartakus> MonkeyDust, it is free, but, there is also a commercial version
[10:57] <deej1976> rani: and it not in the 11.10 partner repo
[10:57] <stormz> so there is no way to apt-get to a mounted drive from live cd?
[10:58] <Ebosh3r> JopyDooge oh thnx I got it.
[10:58] <MonkeyDust> rani: kindly ask Spartakus for advice :)
[10:58] <Mitchell_> stormz, not that i know of
[10:58] <rani> monkeudus: im using ubuntu 11.04
[10:59] <JapyDooge> gl Ebosh3r :)
[10:59] <Spartakus> MonkeyDust, I am sorry bro, but I do not know the package. I only have ever read an article about it :D
[10:59] <rani> Spartakus: hi
[10:59] <deej1976> rani: http://wiki.openbravo.com/wiki/ERP_2.50:Openbravo_ERP_Installation/Ubuntu_Installation
[11:00] <stormz> okay, the 11.11 install exited about 75% through due to the samba error and said it would clean up, which it didn't, it just closed. Maybe the last updates had to do with the network? Is my last option just to reinstall?
[11:00] <X-tonic> is there a channel to UDS?
[11:00] <X-tonic> to post in recommendations and suggestions?
[11:00] <X-tonic> or to follow it live?
[11:00] <rani> deej1976: im using $ sudo apt-get update
[11:00] <rani> $ sudo apt-get install openbravo-erp
[11:01] <deej1976> Try apt-cache search openbravo
[11:02] <rani> deej1976:install process is going on
[11:02] <MonkeyDust> rani: follow the link that deej1976 showed you, you'll learn how to install openbravo erp
[11:02] <Spartakus> rani, please read this http://wiki.openbravo.com/wiki/ERP_2.50:Openbravo_ERP_Installation/Ubuntu_Installation
[11:03] <rani> spartakus: ok
[11:03] <MonkeyDust> Spartakus: the link shows how to add the repo :)
[11:03] <rani> monkeyDust:ok
[11:03] <Spartakus> MonkeyDust, yes, I suppose once the repo has been added, he can installed it directly
[11:04] <dAnjou> hi, has anyone ever seen something like that? https://studi.f4.htw-berlin.de/~s0521788/tmp/strange_bug.mkv [oneiic]
[11:04] <MonkeyDust> we're here to learn
[11:04] <dAnjou> *oneiric
[11:05] <stormz> does anyone have a good guide for DOWNGRAIND ubuntu versions? and how suceessful is the process?
[11:05] <stormz> *downgrading
[11:05] <DJones> !downgrade | stormz
[11:05] <stormz> its already broken, not really much harm
[11:05] <dAnjou> stormz: just reinstall
[11:05] <DJones> stormz: As far as I know, the only way to downgrade is to reinstall with an older version after taking backups
[11:06] <stormz> djones yeah thanks, backing up now.... does anyone actually like the new bar in 11.04+ i think i'll go back to 10.10
[11:06] <dAnjou> gnome 3 here and kind of happy
[11:07] <Spartakus> by the way, OpenBravo 3 is available in my Lucid. I can see it in the software center in the section of canonical partners :D
[11:08] <dAnjou> stormz: actually ... pick one: http://danjou.de/static/desktops.png
[11:08] <dAnjou> except gnome2
[11:11] <stormz> danjou gnome3 looks okay, no bottom bar though, that's why i like gnome2 :P
[11:12] <stevecam> stormz, gnome3 has a bottem bar, you must be thinking of unity
[11:12] <Spartakus> stormz, classic gnome is great, I love it too, although of course gnome 3 is also great
[11:12] <JapyDooge> fluxbox \o/
[11:12]  * JapyDooge runs
[11:13] <dAnjou> stormz: gnome3's bottom bar is hidden and appears when you hover in the bottom right corner

[11:13] <scotty^> ?
[11:14] <stevecam> ive noticed that there has been much confusion with the release of unity and gnome 3
[11:15] <ZeitFight> When I typed vim in my terminal it tells me "The program vim can be found in the following packages: vim, vim-gnome, vim-tiny, vim-athena, vim-gtk, vim-nox." Which one should I download?
[11:15] <jrib> ZeitFight: the one you want ;)
[11:16] <ZeitFight> jrib: I'm looking for a less GUI-based editor. Which one would that be in this case?
[11:16] <deej1976> ZeitFight: vim is console based
[11:16] <JapyDooge> i love nano, but if you like vi-style then i should go for the vim package indeed
[11:16] <jrib> ZeitFight: all of them... Do you want gvim (vim outside of terminal as a gui window)?
[11:16] <dc5ala> ZeitFight, for command line just vim, more "graphical" version is gvim -> vim-gnome
[11:16] <ZeitFight> Alright
[11:16] <clipartcat> nano argh
[11:17] <JapyDooge> xD
[11:17] <JapyDooge> editor war in 3..2..1..

[11:17] <JapyDooge> :D
[11:17] <rzec> is there a repository that has more updated php (like 5.3.8) and mysql (like 5.5.x) for ubuntu.  I know CentOS has IUS Repository but can't find anything got ubuntu/debian.
[11:18]  * JapyDooge runs
[11:19] <Spartakus> yes, download emacs :D it's nice ;))
[11:20] <Bakku> use gedit :)
[11:20] <SystemParadox> the latest version of unetbootin won't run because it can't find the 32bit version of libpng12. Any ideas how to fix this? Is there a 32bit version of libpng somewhere or is this a bug in unetbootin?
[11:20] <Spartakus> emacs is rock! ;))
[11:20] <deej1976> make gedit look like TextMate :)) http://blog.sudobits.com/2011/04/02/textmate-for-ubuntu-linux/
[11:21] <Bakku> what are the advantages of emacs compared to gedit ?
[11:21] <Spartakus> Bakku, well, emacs can make an injury into my fingers :D
[11:21] <Pumpkin-> editor choice is totally personal preference, but somehow it is a super emotive subject
[11:21] <Spartakus> gedit can not do that!
[11:22] <dc5ala> you can put the discussion about text editors to #ubuntu-offtopic ;)
[11:23] <JapyDooge> or #editorwars :P

[11:27] <ZenMaster> So I have a funny question. I havce tried two usb sticks and a cd. And the install of Ubuntu Server fails randomly every time on different files or stages of the install? Could this be because the version of Server I have is to new for the hardware? :D
[11:28] <JapyDooge> html: i've read about it a while ago but thats all
[11:28] <ZenMaster> I would imagine a p4 3.0ghz(Single Core) 2gb ram would be pretty modern. I also though *nix was generally more apprecititive of older hardware also.
[11:28] <html> whats it about and do you have one ?
[11:29] <JapyDooge> ZenMaster: try a check in the memory of the system :) you can do that from the cd boot menu if i'm right, or download the membest86+ iso image :)
[11:29] <}[o0]{> upgraded to 11.10. i use the hda intel driver. all appears loaded via lsmod. no sound. no card in the settings dialogs.
[11:29] <ZenMaster> JapyDooge: Thank you for the response. I have tried both memory and cd test.
[11:29] <JapyDooge> nope html but i's a kinda mediaserver/nas for external harddisks (the device) and included mediaserveralike software
[11:29] <JapyDooge> hmm
[11:29] <scotty^> Zenmaster: And check the md5sum of your Ubuntu download.
[11:29] <JapyDooge> did you try to test the hdd ZenMaster ?
[11:29] <ZenMaster> Well I am trying 10.04 now.
[11:29] <TheHackOps> anyone know how to fix flash player flickering in full screen mode
[11:30] <JapyDooge> oh also what scotty^ says indeed
[11:30] <ZenMaster> JapyDooge, That is the last thing I have not done yet.
[11:30] <ZenMaster> Might just swap the 200gb for the 500gb.
[11:30] <html> JapyDooge,  do you thing its worth it ?
[11:30] <JapyDooge> ZenMaster: i've seen the behaviour before, was a fried harddisk then :)
[11:30] <clipartcat> ZenMaster, well you don't get anything into console?-)
[11:30] <jatt> with google-chrome if I download foo.txt and then foo.txt again it is saved as foo.txt(1). is there a way to configure chrome to overwrite the original foo.txt instead?
[11:30] <ZenMaster> I need this machine to just run one website that is all! I am very framiliar with linux. My operating system of choice is really BSD> :)
[11:30] <JapyDooge> dunno html in the 'modern world' (the device exists for quite some years) almost every normal NAS has a mediaserver function in it :) i wouldnt buy it
[11:30] <jatt> I am using chrome on ubuntu 11.10
[11:31] <TheHackOps> anyone know how to fix flash player flickering in full screen mode
[11:31] <ZenMaster> Ok, going to try to use the 500gb, see if that makes a difference.
[11:31] <JapyDooge> hehe ZenMaster get freebsd on it? :P
[11:31]  * JapyDooge runs
[11:31] <ZenMaster> By the way this machine is a HP DFF 530.
[11:31] <JapyDooge> good luck tho :)

[11:32] <clipartcat> ZenMaster, .jpg or we don't believe you have a girlfriend
[11:32] <JapyDooge> TheHackOps: you can try some different video drivers if possible (upgraded ones, those from manufacturer instead of repository's, etc)
[11:32] <JapyDooge> lol clipartcat
[11:32] <TheHackOps> Grrrrrr i want to watch my show soo bad

[11:32] <clipartcat> write "ZenMaster 420" into postit and include it in the pic
[11:33] <scotty^> TheHackOps - which version of Flash?  What version of Ubuntu are you running?  Which graphics card/chip do you have?  Are you using the open or closed source graphics drivers?
[11:33] <dc5ala> TheHackOps, you could check flash player options via context menu. But may need to do that on a normal flash application which does not hide this menu.
[11:33] <JapyDooge> use flash ZenMaster xD
[11:33] <ZenMaster> clipartcat: How about I  just hold up a jar of weed? :D

[11:38] <dr_willis> G-H0st:  alt-f2 terminal is what i normally use..

[11:40] <ellipsis> Everything was happy with my Ubuntu until I installed an update, now it no longer boots. Any idea what I should do? Can I "repair" an install? I'm on gentoo at the moment and have access to the harddrive used for the broken ubuntu install.
[11:40] <TheHackOps> scotty^, Im rly happy with 10.10 except flash flickers which is anoying
[11:40] <scotty^> G-Host - click on the Ubuntu symbol on the top left, then click on the second icon from the left (the one that looks like a bookcase) at the bottom of the window, then search for "terminal".  Or hold down Super (the Windows key) and press A, then search for "terminal".
[11:40] <ZenMaster> See if this makesa  difference. Also noticed the cdrom was also on master. But I was getting the same results with the cdrom unplugged going off of usb discs.
[11:40] <JapyDooge> not sure html, i use dropbox for most 'cloud' stuff that i allways want to have with me and i have a vps that i can access from everywhere - didnt really think about different ways lol
[11:40] <TheHackOps> ellipsis, Like me
[11:40] <dr_willis> ellipsis:  clarify what it does do.. oftem people say things 'dont boot' meaning very differnt things
[11:40] <TheHackOps> ellipsis_, Like me allways breaks my system when i update

[11:42] <wizonesolutions> Uhh, so MySQLTuner just said that "none of my MyISAM tables are indexed" (D6). Is it malfunctioning? The DB on this site *does* seem to be a ridiculous bottleneck in comparison to another, but at the same time nothing is showing up in the slow query log so I dunno.
[11:43] <TheHackOps> Lol, forgot i never installed any drivers on this laptop. Silly thing to do since its "ubuntu compatible" meaning all the hardware was built with drivers
[11:43] <html> JapyDooge,  well thats nice , i too have dropbox  but i cant pay for it ,  so is there  way i can make a my own cloud?
[11:43] <JapyDooge> html open port on pc for filesharing and leave it running 24/7? :D
[11:44] <wizonesolutions> html: My friend was looking into this the other day. Let me find the name of the thing he mentioned
[11:44] <dr_willis> html:  ive seen gpl cloud type servers/apps  mentioned on blog sites.. but never tried any.
[11:44] <html> JapyDooge,  to risky
[11:44] <JapyDooge> maybe something is possible using freenas and plugins html, it's nice :) http://www.freenas.org/
[11:44] <dr_willis> html:  theres always ssh and sshfs  which is all i use.
[11:44] <Guest56240> When I try to install Evolution, I get: evolution : Depends: evolution-common (= 3.2.0-0ubuntu2) but 2.32.2-0ubuntu7 is to be installed.  How can I fix this?
[11:45] <wizonesolutions> html: Tonido
[11:45] <wizonesolutions> http://www.tonido.com/
[11:45] <TheHackOps> dr_willis, I forgot to thank you for the other day i got everything all sorted a ok
[11:45] <JapyDooge> Guest56240: you can try a --force switch :) not sure if that will break stuff
[11:45] <taruti> Has anyone got a deb of a backported version of grub2 to 10.04 fixing https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/grub2/+bug/717445 ?
[11:45] <dr_willis> TheHackOps:  :)  i dont even rember the problem.. then again. im not even sure what day of teh week this is...
[11:45] <scotty^> TheHackOps: 11.04 and 11.10 will have a laggy desktop if you are using fglrx drivers.  There is a fix on the way for that.
[11:45] <html> dr_willis,  gpl cloud? means?
[11:46] <dr_willis> html:  open sourced cloud server
[11:46] <TheHackOps> dr_willis, i had no sound
[11:46] <}[o0]{> hey. your upgrade banged my running system. where is my sound? modules are loaded. what happened?
[11:46] <Guest56240> JapyDooge, the --force option doesn't seem to work
[11:47] <TheHackOps> scotty^, Although i would consider my self a nutjob i need this computer to work on call and ubuntu is doing that for me 100% so i will stick to what i have
[11:47] <dr_willis> html:  a quick searcg for gpl dropbox - finds what i was thiniibng of ---> http://downloadsquad.switched.com/2010/06/11/sparkleshare-open-source-dropbox/
[11:47] <html> wizonesolutions,  thanks
[11:47] <TheHackOps> brb gotta restart people just installed atis new driver
[11:48] <JapyDooge> Guest56240 did you upgrade to 11.10?
[11:48] <wizonesolutions> html: dr_willis One thing to keep in mind about SparkleShare, at least last time I checked it, is that it's Git-based, so it may struggle with large/non-text-based files or not be optimal. I think it's under active development though.
[11:48] <Guest56240> JapyDooge, yes
[11:48] <JapyDooge> ahh
[11:48] <JapyDooge> then some old stuff is left behind
[11:48] <JapyDooge> try 'sudo apt-get remove evolution-*'
[11:49] <JapyDooge> and then 'apt-get install evolution' again
[11:49] <dr_willis> wizonesolutions:  never used any of them. :) http://www.tonido.com/  looks interesting however.
[11:49] <Guest56240> JapyDooge, that won't erase my email, will it?
[11:50] <dr_willis> for my needs - i just use dropbox, or ubuntu one. or minux
[11:50] <JapyDooge> nope Guest56240
[11:50] <dr_willis> for my needs - i just use dropbox, or ubuntu one. or minus
[11:50] <JapyDooge> will leave the users personal stuff intact :)
[11:50] <}[o0]{> some other guy: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11332877 <<< needs an answer too.
[11:50] <kints> hey i've just installed ubuntu 11.10 and i'm trying to blacklist nouveau how can i boot in single mode? i've tried to add Single to the line where the kernel seems to be loaded ("linux /boot/vmlinuz....")
[11:50] <kints> but it doesn't work at all
[11:50] <scotty^> kints:  What do you mean by single mode?
[11:51] <JapyDooge> single user mode i guess
[11:51] <dr_willis> UbuntOne really needs to  be marketed more like Tonido is.. :) they are just letting it sort of languish.. :(
[11:51] <kints> JapyDooge: yes, command line
[11:51] <JapyDooge> you have to do it in the grub(2) bootloader kints
[11:51] <israel> server of ubuntu??? his talks english???
[11:51] <ZenMaster> Newer used drives in the rig, cross your fingers. Already the 400gb is not showing up....
[11:51] <JapyDooge> so while booting
[11:51] <kints> scotty^: i need a shell to blacklist nouveau and try to install new nvidia drivers
[11:52] <dr_willis> kints:  theres the 'text' option, or i recall  some special option to not load a specific module like nouveau, but i cant recall how its syntax is.
[11:52] <kints> JapyDooge: i can do it from grub directly ?
[11:52] <JapyDooge> afaik yes
[11:52] <dr_willis> kints:  the  options 'text nosplash noquiet nofb' should be enough to get you toa console at least. :)
[11:52] <JapyDooge> but i'm not sure what the hotkey is to break out of the grub gui into an edit of the boot command
[11:52] <JapyDooge> :/
[11:52] <JapyDooge> everything changed with grub2 lol
[11:53] <dr_willis> JapyDooge:  i think it says at the bottom.. e i belive..
[11:53] <JapyDooge> as an alternative you can try to edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-custom file from a bootable cd/usbstick kints :)
[11:53] <boena> Has anyone got Gmate to work on Ubuntu 11.10? I can't find any of the plugins when I installed and now it doesn't even start anymore?
[11:53] <JapyDooge> there you can just add 'blacklist nouveau'
[11:53] <kints> dr_willis, JapyDooge: thanks. i'll try it out.
[11:53] <JapyDooge> good luck
[11:53] <JapyDooge> i'm afk for a while :)
[11:54] <MrCyberElephant> Hello
[11:55] <Guest56240> JapyDooge, thank you!
[11:55] <root> AD
[11:55] <root> hi
[11:56] <Guest37307> ok
[11:56] <Guest37307> hi
[11:56] <Guest37307> freejack
[11:56] <Guest37307> r u ther
[11:56] <Guest37307> ???
[11:56] <scotty^> kints: try some of the options described at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[11:56] <ZenMaster> Funny one barracuda for another one.
[11:57] <honey> just iam using SMART ups when it charges it works for some time  when the power is gone it works for some hour but when the light is coming it swich of it self is there any solution
[11:58] <ZenMaster> honey: Your English is so broken I have no idea what you are saying. :&*(
[11:58] <dnjaramba> what flavour of linux would be best for an internet startup?
[11:59] <dr_willis> 'internet startup' meaning what exactly?
[11:59] <ZenMaster> RedHat, Ubuntum Suse. Ehehehe. SlakWare.
[11:59] <kints> scotty^: ty i'm checking it
[11:59] <ZenMaster> Solaris, FreeBSD, BSD, Netbsd maybe?
[11:59] <rzec> is there a way to install php 5.3.8 without having to compile it manually?
[11:59] <scotty^> kints: specifically, after pressing any key when the small logo appears at the bottom of your screen, press F4 for modes or F6 for nomodeset and to edit the boot options line which JapyDooge referred to.
[11:59] <dnjaramba> an internet company...
[11:59] <io> !info php5
[12:00] <dr_willis> dnjaramba:  and thats still a bit vague as to what the company is really going to be doing...
[12:00] <root__> Amit
[12:00] <rzec> io: when I try to install php5 on ubuntu 10.04 server I get version 5.3.2
[12:00] <root__> AISH1812
[12:00] <root__> Amit
[12:01] <root__> hi
[12:01] <io> rzec: you should get version 5.3.6, what version of Ubuntu are you using?
[12:01] <html> so is there software or a link, or anything that i can get my hands on  ,in the name of a "cloud"   cuz im tired of waiting for these slow pokes to get a stable version out.  which companies are alread useing , so wheres   it at?
[12:01] <rzec> io: 10.04
[12:01] <dr_willis> html:  perhaps clariufy what you are wanting to do with this cloud exactly?
[12:01] <ZenMaster> Going for a older version of Server.
[12:01] <kints> scotty^: i had to install with nomodeset and noapic cos the cd wouldn't boot. i've set nomodeset and noapic on grub and it loaded.. i've managed now to blacklist nouveau and i'll try to install the newest nvidia drivers
[12:01] <ZenMaster> Still getting the same problems.
[12:02] <honey> ZenMaster: iam sory for my english but what iam saying is i have Smart ups and iam using ubuntu 10.04 but when iam plugin to my ups it shutdown by it self is tehre any configration need in my ubuntu?
[12:02] <ZenMaster> First boot nothingm second boot first time it read the usb stick ran into problems.
[12:03] <kints> do i need to reconfigure compiz  or lightDM ?
[12:03] <ellipsis> can I make a symbolic link to a folder and somehow get the files in dir a to show up in dir b?
[12:03] <dr_willis> bbl
[12:03] <CobraKhan007> compiz kinda broke for me with the upgrade of 11.04 to 11.10
[12:04] <scotty^> kints: not sure about that, but I don't think so.
[12:04] <reinsen> hello everybody, my problem: im running the ubuntu setup and im at the point where it states that ubuntu need 4,4gb free space and optionally an internet connection. i connected an usb wlan stick to my computer but cant find the menu to connect to my wifi
[12:05] <CobraKhan007> kints it broke for me atleast.
[12:05] <rzec> io: I tried using the dotdeb repository but I get a bunch of dependency errors
[12:06] <html> dr_willis,  i want to  do something like pogo plug ,ubuntu one , and dropbox to make something new,
[12:06] <dc5ala> reinsen, that's for downloading updates while installing, you can do that later too
[12:06] <reinsen> but there has to be a possibility to that now, right?
[12:07] <reinsen> *do
[12:07] <boena> exit
[12:07] <kints> hmm. CobraKhan007: ok. i'll try it just like this
[12:07] <glebihan> rzec, dotdeb is for debian not ubuntu, that's why. I don't think you'll find a built package of php 5.3.8 for ubuntu yet (and particularly not for lucid)
[12:08] <dc5ala> reinsen, haven't really done that yet with a wifi stick, but is not something i would worry about :)
[12:08] <reinsen> ok thank you
[12:08] <rzec> well that sucks
[12:08] <glebihan> rzec, any particular reason you need version 5.3.8 ?
[12:08] <CobraKhan007> kints got compiz working with "compiz fusion icon" package
[12:09] <ellipsis> I'd quite like to have two folders on my computer sort of transparently share files, is this possible?
[12:09] <RaTTuS|BIG> ellipsis - ln -s source_dir dest dir
[12:09] <rzec> glebihan: well I want something close to the latest version, 5.3.6 would be fine, 5.3.2 is just really old at this point.
[12:09] <theadmin> ellipsis: Read up on "unionfs"
[12:10] <kints> CobraKhan007: thumbs up. checking it.
[12:10] <joshuau> is there a channel for the developer conference ???
[12:10] <theadmin> joshuau: #ubuntu-devel
[12:10] <rzec> glebihan: I am also looking for mysql 5.5 too (lucid has 5.1)
[12:10] <glebihan> rzec, it's not that old
[12:10] <joshuau> thanx
[12:10] <MonkeyDust> rzec: you need the latest verion for develepment reasons?
[12:10] <MonkeyDust> o
[12:11] <rzec> MonkeyDust: yea, production will have the latest version compiled by hand but I don't know how to do that
[12:12] <rzec> glebihan: 18 old is not that old to you?
[12:12] <rzec> 18  months*
[12:12] <glebihan> rzec, for a server, no it's not
[12:13] <ZenMaster> Here we go Ubuntu 10.04. Lets see if this works. :D
[12:13] <Japy`afk> lol
[12:13] <Japy`afk> ZenMaster: it's good you are a zen master
[12:13]  * Japy`afk runs
[12:13] <theadmin> rzec: Switch to Arch for bleedin' edge ;)
[12:13] <ZenMaster> Not the first time I have seen that one.
[12:13] <ZenMaster> Not the first time I have also had silly problems in *nix. :D
[12:13] <html> dr_willis,  i want to  do something like pogo plug  software , but a better version  , i want to make my own app
[12:13] <JapyDooge> lol
[12:13] <rzec> theadmin: how do I do that?
[12:14] <glebihan> rzec, if you want more recent version of the packages, then don't stick with the LTS release (though IMO it's the best choice for a server)
[12:14] <ZenMaster> Perseverence is what wins in the end. :D
[12:14] <JapyDooge> now thats true ZenMaster
[12:14] <theadmin> rzec: lol, you download Arch and install it -- it's another distro. Not even closely Ubuntu-related, but it's one of the first that gets all the latest software (e.g.: we had gnome3 on the day it was released :P)
[12:14] <ZenMaster> There is a reason also this rig is called TinCan5.
[12:14] <html> 10.04  is  far better then unity!!
[12:14] <JapyDooge> but i'm not so zen.. usually :P back in the day i did destroy quite some hardware because i got too heat up at it not working :P
[12:14] <ZenMaster> The first version had like 8 20-40gig hard drives and two PSU's in a old Packad Bell machine.
[12:14] <rzec> theadmin: oh
[12:15] <JapyDooge> Arch linux is nice :) but i wouldnt use it on production systems - but thats a choice
[12:15] <JapyDooge> on production systems i run freebsd nowadays
[12:15] <ZenMaster> Yeah.
[12:15] <ZenMaster> Same here.
[12:15] <ZenMaster> Or Open, or Net pending on what fer. :D
[12:16] <kints> ffs, lightdm is not beeing able to load "fallback graphic devices" does someone knows where can i see logs?
[12:16] <JapyDooge> yea i like open because of its security stuff, but the package selection is very outdated ^^
[12:16] <ZenMaster> However, I think I may have to chalk this poor machine up to faulty hardware. I think it is about done.
[12:16] <JapyDooge> poor machine :9
[12:16] <JapyDooge> :(
[12:16] <theadmin> lol, freeBSD... Was unable to install it, sysinstall is *weird*
[12:16] <JapyDooge> thats true
[12:16] <ZenMaster> Last thing I could really do is try the USB on the back of the machine I guess.
[12:17] <JapyDooge> i also take the full version download also, netinstall doesnt work most of the time lol
[12:17] <JapyDooge> lol ZenMaster
[12:17] <ZenMaster> I have two other machines but they are half of the system that this one is. This would be my fastest personal server at 3.0ghz.
[12:17] <JapyDooge> combine them
[12:17] <JapyDooge> :D
[12:17] <ZenMaster> The other two machines are sempron 1.5ghz 1gb memory. :&*(
[12:17] <JapyDooge> with ductape
[12:18] <ZenMaster> Uhhh, I need cigs. I am about to walk this one off the 1\4 mile to the store.
[12:18] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:18] <scotty^> rzec: Oneiric has php 5.3.6-13ubuntu3.2  and Precise already has php 5.3.8-2ubuntu1
[12:18] <ZenMaster> This machine was running 11.04 with 2d Unity. Then all of the sudden started becoming unstable.
[12:19] <kints> CobraKhan007: X server doesn't seem to start, i've blacklisted nouveau already and i tried to apt-get nvidia-current.
[12:20] <kints> i'm getting "no display devices found for this X screen / screen found but no usable configuration".
[12:20] <html> ZenMaster,  whats your ram?
[12:20] <CobraKhan007> kints hmm, maybe check at nvidia site which driver you need.
[12:20] <BluesKaj> kints, . sudo apt-get install nvidia-current ?
[12:21] <MonkeyDust> kints: what's the output of glxinfo|grep render?
[12:21] <html> ZenMaster,  did u update recently?
[12:21] <kints> <BluesKaj: that's what i've done but when i type nvidia-detector i get the answer "none"
[12:21] <starlon> how can I resize /dev/loop0? I have plenty of drive space, but /dev/loop0 is only 29gb
[12:22] <kints> MonkeyDust : i dont have glxinfo isntalled
[12:22] <MonkeyDust> ok
[12:22] <CobraKhan007> as far as i know there's a driver for consumer cards and 1 for professional cards(like the Quadtro vid cards.
[12:22] <kints> CobraKhan007: should i wget the driver ?
[12:22] <BluesKaj> kints, that nvidia-detector command doesn't work
[12:22] <MonkeyDust> kints: sudo apt-get install glxinfo; glxinfo|grep renderer
[12:22] <CobraKhan007> sry idk, no experience with those
[12:23] <scotty^> kints: open /var/log/dmesg in a text editor
[12:23] <kints> MonkeyDust: unable to locate package
[12:23] <kints> i've apt-get upgrade / update already
[12:24] <ellipsis> RaTTuS|BIG, I tried  ln -s source_dir dest dir, however it just lists a bunch of files in the two locations. I've never got this to work :/
[12:24] <JapyDooge> starlon: maybe with the Gparted boot cd :) i use that one a lot
[12:24] <glebihan> kints, that command is actually in the meas-utils package
[12:24] <ellipsis> theadmin, I'll look into it, it just seems very tricky to set up for such a "simple" thing.
[12:24] <glebihan> mesa-utils
[12:24] <cabpa> hi, i want to ask what to do when linux or unix hangs? or is there a key combination to raise top in terminal to see and kill which processess are hanging?
[12:25] <kints> glebihan: thanks
[12:25] <BluesKaj> kints have donr the nomodeset line in /etc/default/grub ?
[12:25] <ellipsis> cabpa, you can try pressing ctl+alt+f1-F10, these are terminals. Press ctl+alt+f7 to get back to normal.
[12:25] <ellipsis> it dosn't always work though.
[12:26] <kints> scotty^: what can i see with those logs? i've tried to open another terminal and tail -f the file to see what happens when i startx but nothing goes to that log
[12:26] <ellipsis> when the computer really freezes the ctl+alt+f trick dosn't always work.
[12:26] <BluesKaj> !nomodeset | kints
[12:27] <kints> BluesKaj: should i add it ? i've loaded with nomodeset
[12:28] <kints> BlueKaj: when i loaded i've added nomodeset to the kernel boot options
[12:28] <ellipsis> RaTTuS|BIG, Sorry, ln does work to link them. However when I link folders I get a link inside the folder to the other, I'd like the all the files to be "in the same place" so as to let programs find the files for either place checking just the one folder.
[12:28] <cabpa> thank u ellipsis, so by pressing clt+alt+f1 to F10 will to another terminal. how will you see your processes in your first terminal session
[12:28] <kints> MonkeyDust: it goes Error: Unable to open display
[12:29] <cabpa> thank u ellipsis, so by pressing clt+alt+f1 to F10 will to another terminal. how will you see your processes in your first terminal session/
[12:29] <bzrk> hi everyone, does anybody happen to know how to install kde(kubuntu) via preseed command instead of the standard ubuntu gnome desktop?
[12:29] <cabpa> thank u ellipsis, so by pressing clt+alt+f1 to F10 will to another terminal. how will you see your processes in your first terminal session?
[12:29] <ellipsis> cablop, You just said that 3 times.
[12:29] <JapyDooge> he made two typo's
[12:29] <JapyDooge> xD
[12:29] <ellipsis> ah ^^
[12:29] <scotty^> kints: There is all sorts of stuff in dmesg, including stuff about graphics.  But you seem to be saying that dmesg is not being created.  So just give us the basic graphics info for now - to concatenate what a few other folk said - "sudo apt-get install mesa-utils" then "glxinfo |grep render"
[12:30] <ellipsis> I didn't notice
[12:30] <BluesKaj> kernel boot options kints , how ?
[12:30] <ellipsis> cablop, You will do ctl+alt+f1 to get a terminal then from their you can log in and kill the process messing stuff up. To return to normal you then press ctl+alt+f7
[12:30] <kints> BlueKaj: i've edited grub on the line /boot/linux .... i've added nomodeset and noapic
[12:31] <cablop> wait wait, about what?
[12:31] <kints> scotty^: yes i've installed it and run glxinfo with grep render and got an error "Unable to open display"
[12:31] <kints> btw, thanks in advance for all the help
[12:31] <cablop> no, cabpa is nother user ellipsis
[12:31] <robjensen82> Hi there, how would I see what is currently being downloaded by my machine from a terminal?
[12:32] <BluesKaj> kints, it's gotta be in /etc/default/grub,  afiak , then you have to run sudo update-grub to make it stick
[12:32] <cabpa> thank you ellipsis, i will try that
[12:33] <kints> BluesKaj: i just add nomodeset in the eof ?
[12:33] <glebihan> BluesKaj, it's also possible to do that at boot time, which seems to be what kints did
[12:34] <ellipsis> cabpa, I'm not sure how good you are with terminal but I'd like to point out that it's worth writing down or learning how to kill a process before your computer crashes.
[12:34] <BluesKaj> glebihan, it's not the same , but if you think what he did works then fine , I'll leave it alone
[12:34] <ellipsis> cabpa, do you know how?
[12:34] <tresorine> hello
[12:35] <glebihan> BluesKaj, it's not the same as it doesn't make it permanent, apart from that it should have the same behavior
[12:35] <tresorine> i have just install ubuntu 10.04 on my old macintosh
[12:35] <tresorine> fine
[12:35] <starlon> Should this be larger? 30G -rwxrwxrwx 2 root root 30G 2011-11-03 07:35 /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk
[12:35] <kandinski> my wacom tablet is detected beautifully except for the pressure sensing, how can I diagnose it? Thanks!
[12:36] <starlon> Meaning normally. Something's got me squished into 28gb and my disk is much larger.
[12:36] <kints> BluesKaj: if i add it in the end of file when i update grub i get an error
[12:37] <cabpa> yes ellipsis, i just tried now with ctl+alt+F1. i see all the processes of my first session
[12:37] <scotty^> kints: OK, so no drivers are loading at all.  Sounds like you need to persist with the "sudo apt-get install nvidia-current" command and get that working.  I've also heard that an alternative way is to run jockey in text mode by typing jockey-text at the command prompt, but I've not tried this.
[12:37] <cabpa> then ctl+al+F7 to go back to my first session
[12:37] <BluesKaj> kint's it has to be with the qoutes and also removing quiet splash works in some cases too.
[12:37] <cabpa> thank you very much ellipsis
[12:39] <judh> how can i uninstall an installed software through terminal of ubuntu?

[12:39] <JapyDooge> judh: aptitude install <packagename> or aptitude remove <packagename>
[12:39] <cablop> judh: sudo apt-get install|remove
[12:39] <BluesKaj> judh, sudo apt-get remove nameofpackge
[12:40] <reval> I have an odd question, in ubuntu when I record something, and hit stop after I am done talking, the recordings tend to cut out the last bit of what I said, is this common?
