[00:00] <ShapeShifter499> dnivra, EXT3
[00:00] <ShapeShifter499> dnivra, so that shouldn't matter
[00:00] <dw-> aj00200: f-spot is nice ;)
[00:00] <ShapeShifter499> dnivra, right?
[00:00] <Subvert3r> @orangefly .. normal in your haddrive folder - "host"
[00:00] <dnivra> ShapeShifter499, okay you can retain that i guess. ext4 is the latest and is used in ubuntu. but your choice. i'm pretty sure /home won't be affected
[00:00] <zeknox> VCoolio: aeon-ltd thanks guys, I'm downloading lubuntu at the moment
[00:00] <dnivra> ShapeShifter499, backing up is what everybody would recommend. just in case :)
[00:00] <Sary> Jezek, So on what screen you're at  frozen .
[00:01] <aj00200> dw-: I know, although I generally do prefer GIMP. I really like FSpots tag feature
[00:01] <Subvert3r> on that harddrive where your windows is still installed
[00:01] <Tito0096_> Is there a way to convert the Ubuntu version you are on to 64bit with out reinstalling?
[00:01] <Jezek> Sary: im frozen on "preparing to install ubuntu"
[00:01] <orangefly> Subvert3r, not sure what you mean....
[00:01] <dnivra> Tito0096_, you're currently on a 32 bit version?
[00:01] <Tito0096_> yeah
[00:01] <bastidrazor> Tito0096_: no, if you're using 32bit you have to reinstall to get 64bit..
[00:01] <Tito0096_> damn
[00:01] <Tito0096_> lol
[00:01] <dnivra> Tito0096_, no luck mate you have to reinstall-it has to reinstall the whole kernel and stuff.
[00:01] <dnivra> Tito0096_, why do you want to use 64bit?
[00:01] <Tito0096_> k thanks
[00:02] <ShapeShifter499> :/
[00:02] <Tito0096_> i need it to builf
[00:02] <Tito0096_> build ubuntu
[00:02] <live-evil> hmm
[00:02] <ShapeShifter499> dnivra, ok thanks
[00:02] <Tito0096_> for the cr-48
[00:02] <Sary> Jezek, give it some time .
[00:02] <dnivra> Tito0096_, oh okay i see. i thought it might be for using whole of RAM.
[00:02] <systemg33k> I am using Samba (and xmsbrowser). I see the networks but I can't access my windows network.
[00:02] <dnivra> ShapeShifter499, no problem :).
[00:02] <Jezek> Sary: ok i will wait a bit
[00:02] <anon33_> so i'm trying to install 'awesome' via apt-get but it says it has a bunch of dependencies, even running sudo apt-get -f install awesome reiterates the error. any help?
[00:02] <Subvert3r> @orangefly : if you go to your Harddrive, there must be all drives, there ("Datasystem") and after that look for the folder "Host"
[00:02] <Tito0096_> dnivra nope, just 2gmb here
[00:02] <Tito0096_> gb*
[00:03] <dnivra> Tito0096_, ahhh okay. you're remastering ubuntu. am i right?
[00:03] <Tito0096_> yeah
[00:03] <Sary> Jezek, Alright , feedback to us. good luck
[00:03] <orangefly> Subvert3r, network shares....sorry....i should have been clear....
[00:03] <dnivra> Tito0096_, you could do that without removing your current version i guess.
[00:04] <Tito0096_> hmm
[00:04] <Tito0096_> then i would have to DL everything I need all over
[00:04] <Tito0096_> lol
[00:04] <dnivra> Tito0096_, oh wait building it from scratch for a specific hardware is what you are doing?
[00:04] <Tito0096_> dnivra
[00:04] <Tito0096_> no chromion OS repo
[00:04] <Tito0096_> takes forever
[00:04] <Tito0096_> to sync
[00:04] <Tito0096_> and i came to the next step
[00:04] <Tito0096_> and it said i needed 64biy
[00:04] <Tito0096_> :(
[00:04] <Tito0096_> lol
[00:05] <Tito0096_> trying to get Ubuntu on my CR-48 for more capability
[00:05] <magicianlord> isnt 64bit kind of broken without flash player?
[00:05] <Tito0096_> :O
[00:05] <systemg33k> I am using Samba (and xmsbrowser). I see the networks. But I can't access my windows network folders. They have sharing on.
[00:05] <dnivra> Tito0096_, i see. well you have virtualizers such as Virtual Box. if you do not want to delete current install, you could try that.
[00:06] <Tito0096_> yeah i was thinking that
[00:06] <Tito0096_> since I am already settled in
[00:06] <dnivra> magicianlord, nope there is a 64 bit beta version of adobe it works fine for me.
[00:06] <Tito0096_> but the Ubuntu for the CR-48 uses 32 bit
[00:06] <ikonia> the beta version of flash has been dropped
[00:06] <magicianlord> dnivra: link?
[00:06] <Tito0096_> so i can still use flash
[00:06] <ikonia> for 64bit use the 32bit with a wrapper
[00:06] <dnivra> magicianlord, gnash and swf player have 64bit versions too.
[00:06] <ikonia> gnash is also dead
[00:06] <live-evil> hmm
[00:06] <magicianlord> dnivra: are those the poorman's versions that dont really work
[00:07] <Sir_Konrad> Livin4Jesus, ohai.
[00:07] <rww> ikonia: swfdec even more so
[00:07] <live-evil> i can't start ubuntu without it crashing unless i start it in recovery mode
[00:07] <live-evil> and then i just select start as normal
[00:07] <dnivra> magicianlord, i've not tried it out so no comments :)
[00:07] <live-evil> and then it works
[00:08] <p1ggybank> hey, can anyone help a Nuubuntu user with hdmi support issues?
[00:08] <Abhish> Has anyone figured out a fix for the ALPS/Synaptics touchpad in the HP Mini 311-1000?
[00:09] <systemg33k> I am using Samba (and xmsbrowser). I see the networks. But I can't access my windows(7) network folders. They have sharing on.
[00:09] <Jezek> Sary: it still hasn't gotten past that screen
[00:09] <anon33_> so i'm trying to install 'awesome' via apt-get but it says it has a bunch of dependencies, even running sudo apt-get -f install awesome reiterates the error. any help?
[00:09] <goodtime> sudo apt-get
[00:10] <anon33_> it's being run with sudo
[00:10] <goodtime> might need some kungfu
[00:10] <anon33_> my kungfu is weak :(
[00:10] <jrib> ikonia: they dropped 64bit flash *again*?
[00:10] <magicianlord> jrib: yes, its gone
[00:10] <rww> yay
[00:10] <jrib> hilarious.
[00:10] <ikonia> jrib: didn't know they had brought it back...but yes, it's gone
[00:10] <Jezek> Sary: any other options i can try
[00:10] <magicianlord> there is no support 64bit flash
[00:11] <skorv> idiots
[00:11] <magicianlord> 64bit flash is too hard for adobe to program
[00:11] <ikonia> magicianlord: nonsense
[00:11] <staszek20> hello
[00:11] <skorv> the increase of ram in computers will lead to 64bit only operating systems
[00:11] <staszek20> i'm first in this place
[00:11] <jrib> ikonia, magicianlord: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/square/
[00:12] <skorv> eventually to 128bit *dare to dream*
[00:12] <rww> boo
[00:12] <skorv> you scared me
[00:12] <magicianlord> wow jrib
[00:12] <magicianlord> so 64bit flash is in the ubutnu repos now?
[00:12] <ikonia> magicianlord: no it's not
[00:12] <badabada> hi
[00:12] <jrib> magicianlord: no, pretty sure in ubuntu repos you'll get 32-bit wrapper
[00:13] <Jezek> after clicking forward on "preparing to install" screen, it shouldn't take longer than 5 minutes should it?
[00:13] <ikonia> jrib: adobe need to get their life in order as they announced it was dead again
[00:13] <System_Default_0> badabada: Hi.
[00:13] <badabada> I'm having slow DNS resolution issues in ubuntu but not on Windows
[00:13] <badabada> why can that be?
[00:13] <orangefly> when accessing network shares, what does "Failed to retrieve share list from server" mean....???....
[00:13] <badabada> hi System_Default_0
[00:13] <ikonia> badabada: what DNS servers are you usig
[00:13] <live-evil> differnet dns servers
[00:13] <anon33_> goodtime: my kungfu is strong :)
[00:13] <badabada> the ones from my ISP
[00:13] <jacobr> How do I install the latest version of Adobe Flash?
[00:13] <badabada> they work correctly, since I have no problem on windows
[00:13] <ikonia> anon33_: do you have a question or are you just waffling about kung fu
[00:13] <ikonia> badabada: how are you testing ?
[00:13] <Sary> Jezek, there are other boot options .. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[00:13] <magicianlord> jrib: or they dont have it in the repos at all
[00:14] <jrib> magicianlord: they do
[00:14] <anon33_> ikonia: i had a question that i asked 4 times that was never answered
[00:14] <badabada> but somehow under both knoppix live CD and xubuntu they're very slow
[00:14] <Jezek> Sary: should i try each one seperately?
[00:14] <magicianlord> they do? didnt know that
[00:14] <td123> sup nubs
[00:14] <badabada> ikonia, duh, I'm trying in both OSs
[00:14] <magicianlord> i have to go. goodnight
[00:14] <ikonia> anon33_: ok, so wait for a response rather than waffling about kung fu
[00:14] <badabada> switching OSs and trying
[00:14] <staszek20> goodnight
[00:14] <jrib> magicianlord: it should even be integrated with ubuntu's firefox add-on so you can click on the informative yellow bar and just keep clicking away to install flash through the repositories
[00:14] <ikonia> badabada: duh...I asked how you tested the DNS
[00:15] <Livin4Jesus> jrib: <-- magicianlord has left this server (Quit: leaving).
[00:15] <badabada> by browsing the internet
[00:15]  * jrib nods at Livin4Jesus
[00:15] <Livin4Jesus> :P
[00:15] <badabada> it takes like 30 seconds to get past the step of Resolving...
[00:15] <badabada> in google chrome
[00:15] <Livin4Jesus> :P
[00:15] <jrib> Livin4Jesus: sometimes you type something out and enter is closer than ctrl-u :)
[00:15] <ikonia> badabada: ok, so that's not really a dns server test
[00:15] <joeoshawa> Dwade09: as far as i can see you cannot install a video card so you could have dual but that is the best you will get but that is pretty good if you can install video go for it
[00:15] <td123> close
[00:15] <ikonia> badabada: use nslookup and dig and see how they respond on the command line
[00:15] <badabada> obviously it's not
[00:15] <badabada> ok
[00:16] <badabada> let¡s see
[00:16] <ikonia> badabada: right, so if it's obviously not a test, why are you using it s a test
[00:16] <badabada> because I don't need a test to see that it's a DNS problem
[00:16] <joeoshawa> so nobody on wtih ltsp experience
[00:16] <ikonia> badabada: clearly you do
[00:16] <badabada> when it's THAT obvious
[00:16] <Smurfie> I'm having issues with my Skype.. it makes like its signing me in and that's all it does. Only in the process and not doing anything else.
[00:16] <Sary> Jezek, Yes , but before going into that .. Jezek,  did you burned the iso with a slow speed .. also , have you checksum the iso before burning
[00:16] <ikonia> badabada: it's not obvious
[00:16] <badabada> omg
[00:16] <badabada> ok
[00:17] <badabada> hmmm
[00:17] <ikonia> badabada: as it's clearly obvious - I'll let you get on with fixing it
[00:17] <Jezek> Sary: the installation worked before so i don't think it could be the dvd
[00:17] <Jezek> but how do i check the checksum
[00:17] <badabada> yeah you are right
[00:17] <badabada> lol
[00:17] <Jezek> i could try
[00:17] <Sary> Jezek | MD5SUMS
[00:17] <badabada> apparently they work fine
[00:17] <badabada> with nslookup
[00:17] <Sensenetheru> can anyone help me install drivers for ra3370 wireless network adapter in ubuntu 10.10?
[00:17] <Sary> Jezek, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
[00:17] <Sensenetheru> im part way there, but now im stuck
[00:17] <ikonia> badabada: good luck fixing it, it's "clearly" and DNS problem as you so smugly told me
[00:17] <Smurfie> Uhm, any idea how I fix it?
[00:17] <badabada> no, sorry
[00:18] <badabada> you were right
[00:18] <bigzed> Is there a way to encrypt the home directory of user?
[00:18] <badabada> I can't understand how it isn't a dns problem though, but you were right
[00:18] <ikonia> badabada: I know I was, but you clerly no better "omg" "clearly a dns issue" "I don't need to test" etc
[00:18]  * Livin4Jesus doesn't know how to run .run files D:
[00:18] <badabada> yeah I was SO sure
[00:18] <shcherbak> anon33_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=960841
[00:18] <Jezek> Sary: is this the same as check disc for defects
[00:18] <badabada> but now I see that I was even more wrong
[00:18] <ikonia> Livin4Jesus: they are executable, run them
[00:18] <jacobr> Where do I get Adobe Flash player 10 for linux?
[00:18] <ikonia> Livin4Jesus: if they are not executable, make them exectuable, and run them
[00:19] <Livin4Jesus> K.
[00:19] <Jordan_U> Livin4Jesus: Generally you shouldn't. What are you actually trying to install?
[00:19] <aj00200> Livin4Jesus: probably chmod +x file.run and then ./file.run
[00:19] <ikonia> Jordan_U: a better comment, kudos
[00:19] <badabada> ikonia
[00:19] <Sary> Jezek, it's a check but in different process ..
[00:20] <badabada> can I paste command line output here? it's 8 lines
[00:20] <joeoshawa> Jezek: every ubuntu iso has a md5sum recorded you run the md5sum program on the iso to check to make sure it downloaded properly if the two sets of digits match up your good to go
[00:20] <ikonia> badabada: I'm not interested
[00:20] <ikonia> badabada: please don't flood the channel, use a pastebin
[00:20] <badabada> ok
[00:20] <badabada> the thing is that I get the correct ip for an address under the tag "non-authoritative answer"
[00:21] <jrib> ikonia: yes, there's an option at install time (and afterwards I *think* it's enough to install ecryptfs-utils and maybe read its documentatio)
[00:21] <badabada> is that something relevant?
[00:21] <ikonia> badabada: not interested
[00:21] <badabada> the first IP I get is my own LAN ip address
[00:21] <Smurfie> Is there any way for me to fix skype? Its only in the process of signing in and not doing anything else.
[00:21] <badabada> why not
[00:21] <Livin4Jesus> OK, I tried running NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.19-pkg1.run, but when I do, it says "ERROR: nvidia-installer must be run as root". :?
[00:21] <Livin4Jesus> *:/
[00:21] <ikonia> badabada: because I don't appreciate your attitude when I was trying to help you
[00:21] <jrib> !nvidia | Livin4Jesus
[00:21] <aj00200> Livin4Jesus: sudo ./file.rin
[00:21] <aj00200> *run
[00:21] <ikonia> Livin4Jesus: don't run that
[00:22] <badabada> ikonia sorry
[00:22] <blackwater70> suo try sudo ./nvidia.....
[00:22] <ikonia> Livin4Jesus: why are you not using the drivers provided by the ubuntu driver manager ?
[00:22] <badabada> the thing is that I have a huge headache with this and i was so sure that it was a dns problem
[00:22] <blackwater70> or sudo sh ./nv.....
[00:22] <jrib> Livin4Jesus: you should use Restricted Drivers Manager instead of that file (see ubottu's link)
[00:22] <badabada> now I feel like an idiot but well
 Livin4Jesus: why are you not using the drivers provided by the ubuntu driver manager ?   <---- I don't see a Restricted Drivers Manager option... :/
[00:23] <rww> ikonia: It's called Additional Hardware now or something. Stupid thing changes name every release.
[00:23] <Jordan_U> Livin4Jesus: System > Administration > Additional Drivers
[00:23] <ikonia> Livin4Jesus: it's called hardware drivers
[00:23] <rww> ikonia: nvm, misread, Livin4Jesus said that :\
[00:24] <jrib> Livin4Jesus: ubottu's link has the name for all ubuntu releases
[00:24] <bigzed> Can anyone help with home-directory encryption?
[00:24] <badabada> ikonia can you forgive me?
[00:25] <aerosolapple> im having a startx problem with backtrack4 i realize this is an ubuntu channel just hoping someone can help me out
[00:25] <Scott_Puopolo> ikonia: Livin4Jesus is trying to fix a problem with 10.10 and nvidia
[00:25] <jrib> bigzed: did you see what I said?
[00:25] <jrib> !backtrack | aerosolapple
[00:25] <Jordan_U> !backtrack | aerosolapple
[00:25] <ikonia> aerosolapple: no, you should use the #backtrack-linux channel
[00:26] <aerosolapple> i already did to no avail but thank you anyways
[00:26] <dwarder> anyone uses auto hide feature of the bottom pannel?
[00:26] <bigzed> jrib: oh, thank you
[00:26] <dwarder> ok
[00:26] <dwarder> with firefox ?
[00:26] <ikonia> aerosolapple: you've not as I've not seen you ask in that channel
[00:26] <dwarder> well there is a problem
[00:26] <Scott_Puopolo> ikonia: the introduction of xorg 1.9 has caused the nvidia drivers to fail for older graphics cards / chips
[00:26] <Smurfie> Can anyone help me with this?
[00:27] <Loneclock> can someone help me sync thunderbird to dual boot on ubuntu and windows 7
[00:27] <dwarder> if your pannel is not yet hidden and you scroll down your firefox, text will be unreadable
[00:27] <jrib> bigzed: useful documentation for packages is found at /usr/share/doc/PACKAGE_NAME/Readme.Debian usually
[00:27] <dwarder> can anyone test it?
[00:27] <aerosolapple> ikonia: eariler this morning yes. but i realize asking the same question multiple times tends to annoy people
[00:27] <dwarder> is that a somekind of bug?
[00:27] <ikonia> aerosolapple: you don't show up in my logs for the whole week
[00:27] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: there are instructions for installing the package you downloaded...running from root...using runlevel 3...etc...i'll see if I can find them
[00:28] <jrib> !helpme | Smurfie
[00:28] <aerosolapple> ikonia: honestly if youre that interested search by ip. im sure youll be able to find me. ive got more than 1 os
[00:29] <Loneclock> anyone know how to set up thunderbird to sync on dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu?
[00:29] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: i can say that it is a pain
[00:29] <ikonia> Loneclock: use imap
[00:29] <Tito0096_> wget http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/CDs/10.10/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso
[00:29] <Tito0096_> oopsss!
[00:29] <Tito0096_> Would basic chroot instead of the chromium os chroot be okay to use just to do the ubuntu install on the CR-48?
[00:29] <linuxmonger> I'm trying to figure out how to list all lines between word1 and word2, I think sed can do this but it eludes me, anyone have any ideas? Basically I want to list everything between cop and cup from /usr/share/dict/words. Thanks!
[00:29] <jrib> Scott_Puopolo: much easier (and better supported!) to use Additional Drivers in System -> Administration menu
[00:30] <Loneclock> ikonia, can i just install thunderbird on both partitions or is there an easier way?
[00:30] <ZykoticK9> Is there a way to disable a monitor in TwinView from cli (instead of nvidia-settings)?
[00:30] <badabada> ikonia pretty pretty pretty please
[00:31] <Scott_Puopolo> jrib: I agree but in this case nvidia is trying to fix a regression with xorg 1.9 so that the appropriate drivers show up in Additional Drivers and get installed
[00:31] <ikonia> Loneclock: both partitions ? install thunderbird on ubuntu and windows, then use imap to keep your emails in sync across the OS's
[00:31] <Aerosonic> hey guys
[00:31] <badabada> ikonia pretty pretty pretty please

[00:33] <dewdrop> Help. Upgraded tp 11.0 2 weeks ago. Now I let the automatic update install everything that was recommended. Grub loads and ubuntu splash screen comes up . Then the purple screen comes up that usally popsup my window for user name and password but the box doesnt open. I tried safemode but can only get a shell to work. I suck at shell.
[00:33] <psionicsin> Does anyone know how to make Ubuntu stop aksing for passwords for everything? I am the only one who uses this machine and people know not to touch it so I'm not concerned with security. How do I totally get rid of this?
[00:33] <shcherbak> linuxmonger: is it first in line?
[00:34] <ikonia> dewdrop: 11.04 is not supported
[00:34] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: and others following...check out this link...go through the readme and let me know what you think...there are instructions in the readme for installing this package...ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/96.43.19/

[00:34] <jrib> psionicsin: it only asks for passwords when you modify system settings.  What sort of things are you doing so often that the password prompt is becoming annoying?
[00:34] <linuxmonger> shcherbak: Yes, the words are one per line.
[00:35] <psionicsin> jrib it asks for system settings, and also when I wake the pc up from sleeping. I don't like that. Cna this feature be removed?
[00:35] <ikonia> Loneclock: that repo is down, or your machine is not connected to the internet poperly
[00:35] <ikonia> properly
[00:35] <ikonia> Loneclock: that repo is up, I've just checked it
[00:35] <Loneclock> ikonia, how do i find out whats wrong with my internet then?
[00:36] <jrib> psionicsin: what do you mean by "it asks for system settings"?  For the password prompt when returning from sleeping, you can change that either in screensaver preferences or power management preferences (don't know offhand)
[00:36] <ikonia> Loneclock: probably your dns,
 no other OS
[00:36] <Aerosonic> Ok i have a problem over here. I put in my Ubuntu CD, then click Install Ubuntu from the boot menu, then the screen goes blank, and No Signal pops out. GeForce 6150 LE
[00:36] <Loneclock> ikonia, something in the router?
[00:36] <psionicsin> jrib I mean I don't want it to ask for a password for anything. Not even system settings. Is this possible?
[00:36] <Aerosonic> I tried turning the screen off and on but i get no signal anyway
[00:36] <jared__> start up issue: no init found . . . . ring a bell to anyone?
[00:37] <jrib> psionicsin: possible but not recommended
[00:37] <psionicsin> jrib I'm the only one that uses this machine, and I have heavy defences on my live. How do I do it?
[00:37] <psionicsin> line*
[00:37] <jrib> psionicsin: can you answer my original question?
[00:37] <cafejunkie> quick question. Is there anything unique that GNOME uses for sound that LXCDE and XFCE does not use? I installed LXDE since I prefer it to GNOME, however the sound does not work in LXDE (or xfce) but it does in gnome. I checked my ALSA settings, nothing is muted and everything is cranked up. The system recognizes my soundcard (ESS Maestro3 PCI). Pulseaudio is started and running as well
[00:38] <Aerosonic> Repost> When I put in my Ubuntu CD, and click Install Ubuntu from the boot menu, then the screen goes blank, and No Signal message pops out. My chipset is GeForce 6150 LE . I tried turning the screen off and on but that makes no difference
[00:38] <cafejunkie> I also tried eSound instead of pulse audio to no avail
[00:38] <jrib> !verify | Aerosonic
[00:38] <Aerosonic> I did verify the MD5
[00:38] <Aerosonic> I also downloaded an alternative image
[00:38] <psionicsin> jrib that was a typo. I meant to say that is asks for the password during changing system setting or installing/removing passwords, and also during waking up.
[00:39] <jrib> Aerosonic: after you burned?
[00:39] <Aerosonic> Yes, after i burned
[00:39] <Aerosonic> And before i burned
[00:39] <shcherbak> linuxmonger: one second (moment)
[00:39] <Loneclock> ikonia, any idea how to fix it?
[00:39] <dewdrop> No login screen after 11.04 recommended updates. Am I gonna lose everything? Safe mode doesnt work either
[00:39] <Aerosonic> And verified the alternative download, same difference
[00:39] <Aerosonic> Downloaded both 32bit and 64bit versions
[00:39] <badabada2> ikonia fixed it without your help
[00:39] <Aerosonic> jrib: Any ideas?
[00:39] <badabada2> I'm using google's dns servers now in both my router and my resolv.conf file
[00:40] <industry__> dewdrop: you have  ashell, so no, you're not going to lose everything. there's a pretty good chance of you getting your stuff back.
[00:40] <jrib> psionicsin: right so make it not ask you for a password when waking up and changing system settings should not be something that you do so often that it's annoying.  The password is remembered for 15 minutes anyway.  It's a really really bad idea to have it not ask for passwords at all.
[00:40] <psionicsin> jrib what's the theoretical bad thing about it?
[00:41] <jrib> Aerosonic: so what happens with the alt cd?
[00:41] <Aerosonic> jrib: same thing
[00:41] <jrib> Aerosonic: really weird
[00:41] <dewdrop> industry__ I suck using shell. Im on my wifes pc right now . Slamming head against the wall for upgrading to unstable version
[00:41] <psionicsin> jrib I'm just trying to understand because Windows claims having a password makes it more secure also, yet I've never used one and never had problems.
[00:42] <Aerosonic> Anyone else could help? When I put in my Ubuntu CD, and click Install Ubuntu from the boot menu, then the screen goes blank, and No Signal message pops out. My chipset is GeForce 6150 LE . I tried turning the screen off and on but that makes no difference. Checksums matched, both on 32bit and 64bit, i tried alternative download too..
[00:42] <Praxi> ooh ya just a minute
[00:42] <jrib> psionicsin: when you run software, you want it to have as little rights as possible.  So that if it is compromised, it does not brick your whole system
 Livin4Jesus: and others following...check out this link...go through the readme and let me know what you think...there are instructions in the readme for installing this package...ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/96.43.19/   <---- Well, my GeForce card is a Legacy card, so...
[00:42] <aeon-ltd> Guest72179: sorry for the late reply, butuse something like gparted or dban and clear/clean the hdd
[00:43] <psionicsin> jrib...but when I eneter my password...i'm giving it those rights, correct?
[00:43] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: did you get a chance to read that readme?
[00:43] <jared__> my gparted is convinced my drive is mounted, and it isn't
[00:43] <jared__> I'd like to get in there to rescue some files!
[00:43] <Aerosonic> Anyone else could help? When I put in my Ubuntu CD, and click Install Ubuntu from the boot menu, then the screen goes blank, and No Signal message pops out. My chipset is GeForce 6150 LE . I tried turning the screen off and on but that makes no difference. Checksums matched, both on 32bit and 64bit, i tried alternative download too..
[00:43] <synackfin> how do I find out which package owns a particular file on my system?
 Livin4Jesus: did you get a chance to read that readme?  <---- Not yet... But, it said that the .run file doesn't work for Legacy cards... :/
[00:44] <jrib> psionicsin: Yeah, ideally ubuntu wouldn't remember your password at all.  And nowadays, with polkit you give rights to do *specific* things, not "anything it wants"
[00:44] <Ken> FireWire networking advice: I've networked my Laptop and Server (laptop running 10.10, Server running 10.04) using FireWire for the alleged speed boost. It's around the same as my ethernet - 4MB/s. Any advice? This seems common but i've thus far been unable to find a solution elsewhere.
[00:44] <tonsofpcs> is there a way to disable update manager from automatically starting when I connect to a network with ubuntu netbook remix/edition?  how?!
[00:44] <Praxi> Aerosonic: have you followed this thread? http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-ubuntu-10-04-lts-lucid-blank-screen-at-startup.html/comment-page-2#comments
[00:44] <synackfin> e.g. I want to be able to do "apt-get find_owner /usr/include/libelf.h"
[00:44] <jrib> synackfin: dpkg -S
[00:44] <Praxi> the comments in their were especially helpful for me, was having same problem you were Aerosonic
[00:44] <psionicsin> jrib Ok well how do I do it anyway? I'll deal with the consequences if and when they come. I want the knowledge of this.
[00:44] <SuperLag> What has better support in Ubuntu these days?  :P
[00:45] <Aerosonic> nVidia started sucking latelly
[00:45] <psionicsin>  Livin4Jesus nVidia rocks
[00:46] <cafejunkie> lol nVidia is the way to go for linux.
[00:46] <Ken> Livin4Jesus: It was the onboard graphics card for my laptop. I'm not a fan either way but it works and works reasonably well.
[00:46] <SuperLag> Ken: I'm looking for a dual-head card that I can put in a 64-bit Ubuntu desktop
[00:46] <thiebaude> cafejunkie, i agree
[00:46] <Aerosonic> I had sooo many problems with ATI on linux
[00:46] <Aerosonic> Even more on nVidia
[00:46] <cafejunkie> unfortunately I have an old ati raedon in my older laptop. Got the resolution to work but no desktop effects unfortunately
[00:46] <thiebaude> 2 ubuntu releases on nvidia 8400 gs np
[00:46] <thiebaude> :)
[00:47] <Autonomiser> I guess not then
[00:47] <amanda__> hi Guys
[00:47] <amanda__> Can i ask questions about Ubuntu in this chat room?
[00:47] <Ken> SuperLag: For what it counts in a lot of tutorials that state things like, "This may not work if you have an ATI card" etc. Nvidia seems to be the way to go but don't rely solely on my advice. Some (rare) gaming and Compiz are about as hard as I push my laptop.
[00:47] <jrib> amanda__: ubuntu support is what this channel is about, yes
[00:47] <amanda__> Well im having Trouble
[00:48] <Ken> FireWire anyone?
[00:48] <amanda__> On my Desktop i have PCLinuxOS and I have a 3d Cube desktop and wobbly windows and everything, But in my Sony Vaio Laptop none of that will work
[00:49] <amanda__> i applied Compiz, and emerald, and everything but it wont work
[00:49] <Ken> amanda_: Might sound patronizing but have you installed the graphics card and tried restarting?
[00:49] <Loneclock> can someone help me with this http://pastebin.com/N6XPXXGU
[00:50] <Ken> amanda__: The amount of times I can't get something to work and all I need to do is a quick restart.
[00:50] <amanda__> thats the other thing, i cant find my devices
[00:50] <cafejunkie> you shoudl theoretically need either compiz or emerald, not both
[00:50] <amanda__> its totally different then PCLOS
[00:50] <Ken> Loneclock: Did you modify your source.list file?
[00:50] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: ok...check out this link to see if your chipset is included in this package...
[00:50] <Scott_Puopolo>  Please go to http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html, follow the
[00:50] <Scott_Puopolo>  Archive link under the Linux x86 heading, follow the link for the 96.43.19
[00:50] <Scott_Puopolo>  driver, and then go to the Supported Products List.
[00:50] <FloodBot3> Scott_Puopolo: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:50] <Habeous> ;'.,
[00:51] <Loneclock> ken, i dont think so
[00:51] <cafejunkie> amana_: what ddoes it say you have for your video card in lspci
[00:51] <amanda__> i did a quick restart and nothing but if you can guide me toward my graphics chip device
[00:51] <Livin4Jesus> Scott_Puopolo: Already went through that...
[00:51] <Livin4Jesus> Mine is supported.
[00:51] <Livin4Jesus> :D
[00:51] <Livin4Jesus> Now,
[00:51] <glitchd> can some one help me with this error please? http://pastie.org/1399461
[00:51] <Ken> Loneclock: Give me a second until I check mine but I think, maybe, you've got an incorrect entry there.
[00:51] <Livin4Jesus> the question is,
[00:51] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: ok cool
[00:51] <Livin4Jesus> what next?
[00:51] <Loneclock> ken okay
[00:52] <Livin4Jesus> Also, Scott_Puopolo, I currently have NVIDIA graphics driver from the Ubuntu Software Center installed, but it doesn't do anything...  Can you use pastie and copy/paste what it says in your sources.list file found at (/etc/apt/sources.list)
[00:53] <Ken> .+
[00:53] <Livin4Jesus> >And it's active. o-o
[00:53] <Ken> Ahem, sorry. Dropped my phone on the keyboard.
[00:53] <cathexis> one quick question i cant get my skype to work well the mic
[00:53] <Loneclock> ken, what command do i use, sorry i am new to ubuntu and linux
[00:53] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: do you know what version of driver you have? (should show in NVIDIA configuration app)
[00:53] <Praxi> glitchd: did anyone answer you?  If not have you tried uninstalling the facebook app its complaining about?
[00:53] <cathexis> i got ubuntu lucid
[00:54] <glitchd> Praxi, no, noone has answered me, and yes i have tried uninstalling the app
[00:54] <Praxi> glitchd: did you purge it?
[00:54] <Ken> Loneclock: Don't be sorry. There is probably a better solution but this is how i'd do it. In the terminal type "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"
[00:54] <glitchd> Praxi, even gone as far as removing the file its talking about and all it does it state that another file after that is giving the same problem
[00:54] <glitchd> Praxi, no i dont believe so
[00:55] <ovichelu> hi all
[00:55] <Ken> ovichelu: Hello.
[00:55] <cafejunkie> amanda_: unfortunately not supporated too well in Ubuntu. I'm assuming you are using 10.10
[00:55] <amanda__> yes
[00:55] <Praxi> glitchd: I'm pretty new to all this, but see if you can find the packing doing dpkg -l | grep face  .  If you find it uninstall with dpkg -P name
[00:55] <Loneclock> ken http://pastebin.com/s54nxqtz
[00:56] <Ken> Loneclock: Thanks. I'll look at it now.
[00:56] <paq7512> what is the anydvd equivalent in ubuntu?
[00:56] <Praxi> glitchd: that should remove all traces of the app from your system, it worked for me to get rid of a bunch of ruby stuff hanging around
[00:56] <glitchd> Praxi, it popped up a whole bunch of things
[00:56] <ovichelu> ce faceti ma?
[00:56] <cathexis> one quick question i cant get my skype to work well the mic??????????????  i got ubuntu lucid
[00:57] <Gabi> ovichelu ai gresit networku
[00:57] <Livin4Jesus> Scott_Puopolo: "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edot your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server". O_O
[00:57] <Praxi> glitchd:  dpkg -l | grep facebook does that slim it down?
[00:57] <ovichelu> ce faci gabi?
[00:57] <Gabi> caut un email
[00:57] <ovichelu> de unde esti mane?
[00:57] <Gabi> sau pe cineva cu un email mai privat daca pot spune asa
[00:57] <itaylor57> cafejunkie: I have Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 18) and have no problems in 10.10, i just don't run compiz
[00:57] <cafejunkie> amanda_: have you tried checking for a proprietary driver? Go to your appearance settings, then choose either the second or third desktop effects (normal or extra) and wait for it to check for a driver
[00:57] <cathexis> one quick question i cant get my skype to work well the mic??????????????  i got ubuntu lucid
[00:58] <glitchd> Praxi, yes
[00:58] <jrib> !fr | Gabi
[00:58] <glitchd> Praxi, it lists only one package then
[00:58] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: yeah, that's what i ran into also but then i found this nvidia driver...the trick is running this installer before x starts...
[00:58] <cafejunkie> itaylor57: Yeah, it works but amanda is trying to get compiz going
[00:58] <Ken> Loneclock: Have you tried removing (commenting out) the repositories in question? The ones that are causing problems.
[00:58] <whoos> one question
[00:58] <cathexis> one quick question i cant get my skype to work well the mic??????????????  i got ubuntu lucid WHAT can i do???
 Livin4Jesus: yeah, that's what i ran into also but then i found this nvidia driver...the trick is running this installer before x starts...   <---- What installer? '~'
[00:58] <Ken> cathexis: I can't go into too much detail but my inbuilt mic caused more problems than an external one.
[00:58] <amanda__> i just lost my buttons
[00:58] <Praxi> glitchd: if that looks like your package, do the dpkg -P X        X=the name it just shows you
[00:58] <Ken> !spam | cathexis
[00:58] <Ken> meh.
[00:59] <glitchd> Praxi, ok ill try it
[00:59] <Gabi> hey can someone help me
[00:59] <Loneclock> ken , nope
[00:59] <amanda__> My windows are wobbling but now i dont have Minimize maximize and close buttons
[00:59] <Praxi> glitchd: just remember I'm new at this also :)
[00:59] <Ken> Cathexis: Please don't repeat your question over and over again, though.
[00:59] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: i'm mostly a beos and haiku user so maybe someone else can show us how to kill x and run this from a prompt
[00:59] <whoos> since yesterday (although it happened to me a few months ago and solved itself after a few days) my mouse and keyboard are frozen for 2 minutes when i start the computer. I must wait about two minutes in the login screen
[00:59] <Loneclock> ken do you think that would help
[00:59] <Gabi> i want to register an username all i need is your email , so you will give me back the activation link ( they dont allow free emails like aol / yahoo / hotmail .... )
[00:59] <Ken> amanda__: Try reloading/login out and back in.
[00:59] <whoos> does anybody knows whya?
[00:59] <Jordan_U> Livin4Jesus: Have you tried System > Administration > Additional Drivers yet?
[00:59] <amanda__> ok brb
[00:59] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: the package that you downloaded that ends is .run is the package
[00:59] <Ken> Loneclock: It should do. You can disable them through the GUI but it's not exactly ideal if you need those respositories.
[00:59] <cathexis> ok ken thanks
[00:59] <zakwilson> Scott_Puopolo: You actually use Be/Haiku as your primary OS?
[01:00] <Loneclock> ken how do i know if i need them?
[01:00] <glitchd> Praxi, dpkg: warning: ignoring request to remove pidgin-facebookchat which isn't installed.
 Livin4Jesus: Have you tried System > Administration > Additional Drivers yet?   <--- Yup. In fact, I have a nVidia driver installed form the Ubuntu Software Center, but it still didn't do anything...
[01:00] <Ken> Cathexis: No problem. It depends on your sound drivers, etc too. For ALSA I had to install alsa-mixer and fiddle with the controls in it.
[01:00] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: yeah...of course...doesn't everybody?
[01:00] <rww> lol
[01:00] <Livin4Jesus> Maybe I should try again...
[01:00] <Jordan_U> Livin4Jesus: Installing the package from Software Center is *not* the same.
[01:00] <Livin4Jesus> Be expecting me to disconnect. :/
 Livin4Jesus: Installing the package from Software Center is *not* the same.   <---- ?
[01:00] <Jordan_U> Livin4Jesus: You need to install the package *and* enable the driver.
[01:00] <cafejunkie> anyone up for tackling a sound issue?
[01:00] <Livin4Jesus> I did.
[01:00] <Ken> Loneclock: I'll take a look to see. Which version are you using? 10.04?
[01:01] <amanda__> Buttons came back but wobbling stopped hrmm
[01:01] <glitchd> Livin4Jesus, sounds like u need to go to the nvidia site and get the driver specifically for your card.
[01:01] <Livin4Jesus> Jordan_U: It's install and enabled. :/
[01:01] <Loneclock> ken how do i check?
[01:01] <whoos> are you talking about enabling the desktop effects with the propietary nvidia drivers?
[01:01] <Jordan_U> Livin4Jesus: Can you post a screenshot from System > Administration > Additional Drivers?
[01:01] <Ken> amanda_: Install ccsm (compiz configuration settings manager) and it'll allow you to control all of the behaviours, if it's working correctly.
[01:01] <zakwilson> Scott_Puopolo: That's awesome. It's sad that Be didn't get a bit more traction.
[01:01] <Jordan_U> !screenshot | Livin4Jesus
[01:01] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: IIRC you will be running this package with 'sudo sh <insert package name here>' but remember this only works with x not running
[01:01] <Praxi> glitchd: did that with a capital P?
[01:02] <Livin4Jesus> OK, hold on...
[01:02] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: ok good luck
[01:02] <shadaloo> hi
[01:02] <shadaloo> can I make
[01:02] <mylisto> hey folks
[01:02] <cathexis> Thanks Ken i will try that
[01:02] <shadaloo> a new partion from existing one I'm currently using
[01:02] <shadaloo> in gparted?
[01:02] <glitchd> Praxi, yes
[01:02] <mylisto> for some reason I can't connect to skype - I keep on getting a "p2p connect failed"
[01:02] <glitchd> mylisto, skype is down for now
[01:03] <Praxi> glitchd: hmm don't have much more to offer you, other than try it from apt-get, check this thread http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/how-do-i-get-apt-get-to-completely-uninstall-a-package-237772/
[01:03] <mylisto> ah it is?
[01:03] <glitchd> mylisto, almost no one can connect
[01:03] <cafejunkie> what daemons does GNOME use for sound that are not present by dfeault in xfce/lxde? Sound works on GNOME, not lxde/xfce. Check ALSA, everything good, found sound card. Pulseaudio is running
[01:03] <Ken> Loneclock: Open up a terminal and type "cat /etc/issue"
[01:03] <whoos> mylisto: there's a problem today with skype, it's not your computer's fault, it's them
[01:03] <glitchd> Praxi, ok thx for the help
[01:03] <Loneclock> ken , how do i check which  version i am?
[01:03] <Praxi> glitchd: if thats a no go, try INSTALLING that package (the one you don't want) then do a purge to uninstall it
[01:03] <jrib> cafejunkie: check it's not muted
[01:03] <cafejunkie> jrib: not muted, everything up all the way
[01:04] <Livin4Jesus> Still no good. D:
[01:04] <Loneclock> ken 10.04.1
[01:04] <glitchd> Praxi, it is installed but it says it isnt
[01:04] <cafejunkie> I even tried using eSound instead of pulse..still nothing
[01:04] <amanda__> thats weird Isnt it the windows began wobbling but lost my buttons then a quick restart stopped the wobbling and brought them back
[01:04] <Ken> LoneClock: Okay, thank you. I'll get back to you in a second
[01:04] <Praxi> glitchd: the few times I have ran across that, its been left over config files and things like that
[01:04] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: ask in here how to exit x and get to runlevel 3
[01:04] <glitchd> Praxi, well how would i check for those then remove them?
[01:04] <Praxi> glitchd: you can forcibly reinstall the package, will see if I canf ind you a link for that
[01:05] <Praxi> glitchd: for me the dpkg -P worked
[01:05] <Livin4Jesus> Does anyone know how to exit X and get to Runlevel 3? '~'
[01:05] <cafejunkie> amanda_: It might be that the open source drivers for that card simply don't support desktop effects as of yet
[01:05] <shadaloo> dudes
[01:06] <shadaloo> how come I can't use my current partion in gparted
[01:06] <amanda__> can i upgrade to AMD64 without having to start a bran new install?
[01:06] <shadaloo> to make a new partion for data?
[01:06] <Jordan_U> Livin4Jesus: Please wait and try a bit more to get things working the supported way. Among other things installing the driver from Nvidia directly will mean that X will break every time you get a kernel upgrade.
[01:06] <KM0201> amanda__: not if you have a 32bit install now
[01:06] <Ken> shadaloo: If the partition is mounted you can't modify it with gparted until it's unmounted.
[01:06] <cafejunkie> amanda_: you could recompile a new kernel if your up for it
[01:06] <shadaloo> Ken: good call mate
[01:06] <Praxi> glitchd: http://www.linux.com/archive/feed/48910 it talks about what to do when apt-get fails
[01:07] <shadaloo> Ken: how do I unmount manually?
[01:07] <amanda__> well ive never done that before ok so if my graphics chip wont work, will VirtualBox?
[01:08] <Ken> amanda__: If it's a nvidia card look into installing the restricted drivers (nvidia cards, in a lot of cases, come with restricted (non-free) drivers)
[01:08] <cafejunkie> shadaloo: boot into the live CD, you cant unmount it if you are using it
[01:08] <savid> Hi, I'm using OSS for my video editing program (cinelerra) because it's faster.   Although, sometimes the sound stops working.  I know that OSS only works with one app at a time, so I'm guessing something has "reclaimed" /dev/dsp.  Is there a way to figure out what process is using /dev/dsp?
[01:08] <shadaloo> cafejunkie: k, thx
[01:08] <amanda__> yeah and Sony and HP have restricted for Windows only type drivers
[01:08] <Ken> shadaloo: You might be able to unmount it if it's not your root partition through gparted. If not, live CD
[01:08] <amanda__> Ill figure it out
[01:08] <Ken> Loneclock: I haven't forgotten about you. I'm just trying to generate a sources list.
[01:09] <cafejunkie> amanda_: sorry couldn't be much more help. YOu could try virtualbox but I think that intel chipset (the open source drivers for it) just don't support the desktop effects
[01:09] <jrib> savid: fuser
[01:09] <Scott_Puopolo> Jordan_U: you are right about x breaking after every kernel update
[01:09] <Loneclock> ken okay thanks
[01:09] <Ken> Loneclock: Okay, do you know how to make a copy of a file in the terminal?
[01:09] <amanda__> ok new developement
[01:09] <Scott_Puopolo> Jordan_U: this is provided by nvidia until this gets picked up by ubuntu
[01:10] <amanda__> I have 3D desktop with Cube and full Rotation
[01:10] <craigbass1976> I'm trying to get network manager up.  What's the actual name of the program?
[01:10] <amanda__> But my buttons just vanished again along witht he whole top bar of every window
[01:10] <Jordan_U> craigbass1976: nm-applet
[01:10] <Loneclock> ken i dont think so, also, i updated from package manager and got this error
[01:10] <Loneclock> http://pastebin.com/ZrdR7gKJ
[01:11] <cafejunkie> amanda_: try going into ccsm (compix config settings manager) go to effects > and tick/enable window decoration
[01:11] <Scott_Puopolo> Jordan_U: reverting back to the xorg system from lucid corrects the problem with legacy nvidia cards but this is even crazier hackery
[01:11] <Ken> Loneclock: No problem. In the terminal type for me (without the quotes): sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.bak
[01:11] <raj-k> hey
[01:11] <amanda__> what i did was set Compiz indirect rendering and merald as my options
[01:11] <ooop> need to know grub commands to find out what it looks like
[01:12] <craigbass1976> Jordan_U, thanks.  It says it's already running, ps confirms this.  Darned if I see it anywhere though.
[01:12] <amanda__> ok im in compiz config now
[01:12] <Ken> Loneclock: You should be careful when people ask you to enter commands, though, especially those which begin with "sudo" (superuser do - it's basically admin privledges). This command however does "copy the file sources.list which is found in /etc/apt directory. It makes a copy ending in .bak" - if anything goes wrong you can always revert to that backup.
[01:12] <amanda__> that WORKED!!
[01:12] <shadaloo> ok
[01:13] <shadaloo> let's approach this question
[01:13] <shadaloo> from another angle guys
[01:13] <cafejunkie> amanda_: good to hear
[01:13] <shadaloo> how can I copy
[01:13] <Scott_Puopolo> does anyone know the correct way to stop the x server and get to a prompt with runlevel 3?
[01:13] <amanda__> Ok thanks for all the help imgoing to test it
[01:13] <Ken> amanda__: Look into getting "fusion-icon" too
[01:13] <Loneclock> ken, aaron@watermelons-laptop:~$ sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:13] <Loneclock> cp: missing destination file operand after `/etc/apt/sources.list'
[01:13] <Loneclock> Try `cp --help' for more information.
[01:13] <Loneclock> aaron@watermelons-laptop:~$ sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:13] <FloodBot3> Loneclock: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:13] <shadaloo> how can I copy /sdb1/ to /sda1/ without overriding os files
[01:14] <craigbass1976> Scott_Puopolo, Good question; I'm pretty sure the ubuntu run levels are different than what you're used to though.  You just want no gui, multi-user text?
[01:14] <amanda__> ok one more thing before testing ,. how do i set Rotate Desktop to binding Middle Mouse Button
[01:14] <Ken> amanda__: Look into the keybindings tab for the cube.
[01:14] <Jordan_U> craigbass1976: I missed where Livin4Jesus stated what nvidia card he has. What makes you think that it's a problem with a legacy nvidia card?
[01:14] <amanda__> thank you
[01:14] <amanda__> brb
[01:14] <Ken> Loneclock: sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.bak
[01:14] <Ken> Loneclock: It told you you're missing the destination file. Basically you forgot to tell it where/what it's copying the first file to.
[01:15] <shadaloo> how can I copy /sdb1/ to /sda1/ without overriding os files
[01:15] <amanda__> ok what would middle mouse button be super?
[01:15] <Scott_Puopolo> craigbass1976: yes i'm looking for the correct command(s) to quit x server and get a prompt with runlevel 3
[01:15] <di_giorgio> Mp3player [Indenso - Como o mar] CeBoLiNhA 2011
[01:15] <Jordan_U> Livin4Jesus: Can you post a screenshot from System > Administration > Additional Drivers?
[01:15] <shadaloo> how can I copy /sdb1/ to /sda1/ without overriding os files?
[01:15] <Loneclock> ken, when i do it is nothing supposed to happen in terminal?
[01:15] <craigbass1976> Jordan_U, Meh?  I'm talking about network manager, not nvidia
[01:16] <Ken> amanda__: I don't understand the question. The "super" button is usually the windows key. The middle mouse button depends on your computer. For me it's called "mouse 2" oddly but i'm on a laptop.
[01:16] <Wifihelp> How do I change the password to the default keyring
[01:16] <Ken> Loneclock: No, nothing much will happen. Do: "ls /etc/apt/" for me please and paste the output.
[01:16] <Scott_Puopolo> Jordan_U: Livin4Jesus is using this setup...VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11DDR [GeForce2 MX200] (rev b2), and I'm using Ubuntu 10.10
[01:16] <Jordan_U> Scott_Puopolo: I missed where Livin4Jesus stated what nvidia card he has. What makes you think that it's a problem with a legacy nvidia card?
[01:16] <amanda__> i am on a laptop too but i hate the middle mouspad so i am using a mouse
[01:16] <cafejunkie> shadaloo: "cp -R /mnt/sdb1 /mnt/sda1 should work
[01:16] <amanda__> i need to know which button is the middle mouse button for roating the cube setting
[01:17] <cafejunkie> shadaloo: as long as there are no matching files
[01:17] <shadaloo> cafejunkie: you are the sexiest
[01:17] <Ken> amanda__: Play with the settings and you should find them out. It'll either be "mouse 1" "mouse 2" or "mouse 3" most likely.
[01:17] <amanda__> ok brb
[01:17] <shadaloo> cafejunkie: how can I do with process progress?
[01:17] <Scott_Puopolo> Jordan_U: i also have an nvidia card in another machine that i'm trying to correct since updating to 10.10
[01:17] <amanda__> ok it was button 2
[01:17] <Jordan_U> Scott_Puopolo: Thanks.
[01:17] <amanda__> Sweet This rocks
[01:17] <Loneclock> ken, http://pastebin.com/MV5VRuuf  I think it is working now, after i updated i was able to install thunderbird

[01:18] <Ken> amanda__: http://wiki.compiz.org/CommonKeyboardShortcuts
[01:18] <amanda__> This is going to be FUN
[01:18] <amanda__> Any suggestions on what this puppy can do
[01:18] <Scott_Puopolo> Jordan_U: from what i have found on forums, the move to xorg 1.9 has broken the nvidia drivers for legacy nvidia products
[01:18] <Ken> Loneclock: Have you tried to run "sudo apt-get update" in the terminal since? Check to see if you're still getting errors. We've not really done anything much.
[01:18] <Jordan_U> di_giorgio: Please stop that / turn off whatever script is doing it.
[01:18] <shadaloo> cafejunkie: like this http://www.catonmat.net/blog/unix-utilities-pipe-viewer/
[01:18] <shadaloo> cafejunkie: do u know??
[01:19] <shcherbak> linuxmonger: You still there?
[01:19] <Wifihelp> How do I change the default keyring password
[01:19] <cafejunkie> shadaloo: I know the PV command shows a progress bar for files but doesn't always work for directories
[01:19] <Ken> amanda__: Check the scale plugin. It's pretty nice. I use it a lot for the functionality. Check out the extra plugins that contain the Grid, too. It's my most used.
[01:19] <amanda__> I have 3.1ghz with 258DDRAM and 1.4 gigs of ram here
[01:19] <Loneclock> ken http://pastebin.com/eh0makYV
[01:19] <Scott_Puopolo> Jordan_U: nvidia has finally posted updated drivers but the install must be done manually...btw do you know the answer to my runlevel question?
[01:19] <linuxmonger> shcherbak: Yes.
[01:19] <david_> Hi, I just got ubuntu 10.04 and noticed the x - and windows are on the opposite sidee of how they would usually be
[01:19] <Wifihelp> Test
[01:19] <david_> like on osx
[01:19] <david_> How do I change that?
[01:19] <david_> to like how windows would have it
[01:19] <shadaloo> cafejunkie: so how would I set it up
[01:19] <cafejunkie> shadaloo: check out this thread http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/cp-progress-bar-407381/
[01:19] <amanda__> scale is a compiz plugin?
[01:20] <shcherbak> had few minutes with unrary problem (like always), do you still need stuff?
[01:20] <Ken> amanda__: It should be. Maybe it's in the plugin-extras package. I'm not sure to be honest.
[01:20] <craigbass1976> david_, heh...  I can't remember for sure, but googling will tell you.  You may have to change the theme once you get done
[01:20] <Loneclock> ken, how can i see the difference between root user and me
[01:20] <Ken> Loneclock: We didn't fix anything, we just made a backup. Most likely you just needed to run "update" again. Might have been your network connection.
[01:20] <amanda__> Scale Window Title?
[01:20] <Ken> Loneclock: How do you mean?
[01:20] <Loneclock> ken, well it said to make another user other than root and do most things as it,
[01:20] <amanda__> oh that scale
[01:20] <david_> ok, thanks craigbass1976
[01:20] <Jordan_U> Scott_Puopolo: Yes, you need to reboot holding shift and select "recovery mode" from the boot menu. Or run "sudo service gdm stop".
[01:21] <Ken> amanda__: No, it should be "scale" under the Windows Management
[01:21] <amanda__> its enabled already ill see what it does
[01:21] <OneTonTurd> Ken: I think he means in like his name would be home/Lonelock/...
[01:21] <craigbass1976> david_, I'd give you a link, but I'm in the midst of yelling at another laptop...
[01:21] <amanda__> wow thats cool
[01:21] <Scott_Puopolo> Jordan_U: ok thanks for the info!
[01:21] <Loneclock> ken i want to make sure i actually made another user other than root with a different password
[01:21] <Ken> Loneclock: Ah. As far as I know Ubuntu makes another user aside from root anyway. Root is literally called "root" in your system. From your prompts i can see that you have the username Aaron, so you're not using the root account.
[01:21] <Jordan_U> Scott_Puopolo: Be sure to explain to Livin4Jesus about needing to do this whenever there is a kernel upgrade.
[01:21] <linuxmonger> shcherbak:  cat /usr/share/dict/words | sed -e '1,/cop/d'  -e 'cup,/$d' doesn't work, still trying.
[01:21] <savid> jrib,  would it be just "lsof /dev/dsp"?
[01:22] <Loneclock> ken is root sudo?
[01:22] <OneTonTurd> Yes
[01:22] <Ken> Loneclock: It'll be done by default. using "sudo" for commands gives root privledges. Essentially root can change everything.
[01:22] <F3RR1S> is looking for a good place to get a server
[01:22] <Tabmow> Is there anything that makes Ubuntu initiate a shutdown? I was SSH'd in to my laptop and all of a sudden got a going down for system halt message and I have no idea why :( ?
[01:22] <KM0201> !sudo  | Loneclock
[01:22] <OneTonTurd> Lonelock. so Sudo command command ask for password
[01:22] <amanda__> Well i'll come back later just to chat if thats ok thanks for all the help, i have to go eat its dinnner time
[01:22] <amanda__> bye for now all
[01:22] <cafejunkie> sudo gives you temporary root access. If you want to login as root in a terminal you type su-
[01:22] <Scott_Puopolo> Jordan_U: yeah, i will...there is also an option in this nvidia package to run an update switch that will keep the driver current
[01:22] <F3RR1S> wants to install ubuntu-server on it
[01:22] <Jordan_U> Tabmow: Only running out of battery should cause an automatic shutdown.
[01:22] <Loneclock> ken, when i log into ubuntu i use the same password as when i use the sudo command, but are they different users?
[01:23] <Jordan_U> Scott_Puopolo: Ahh, wasn't aware of that.
[01:23] <shcherbak> linuxmonger: http://paste.ubuntu.com/546787/
[01:23] <Wifihelp> How do I change the default keyring password
[01:23] <Wifihelp> I need to know to get wifi to work
[01:23] <Ken> Loneclock: Kind of. You're just authorizing your user to carry out advanced privileges. You're technically not root but you have root commands. Are you familiar with Windows?
[01:23] <Scott_Puopolo> Jordan_U: hopefully this will get picked up in the repos Some Time Soon (tm) and this will become obsolete...at least until the next 'upgrade'
[01:23] <KM0201> !keyring | Wifihelp
[01:23] <jrib> savid: you can use fuser or lsof sure
[01:24] <Loneclock> ken not with commands programming etc
[01:24] <jrt74> last attempt to save my filesystem
[01:24] <Loneclock> just with basic things ken
[01:24] <Ken> Loneclock: You know how you have an administrator account, and then you have other accounts that you can set to be administrator accounts (even with different usernames) - your account "aaron" is like the latter. You have to ask for permission to do administrator stuff.
[01:24] <Scott_Puopolo> Livin4Jesus: have you been following this conversation with Jordan_U?
[01:24] <jrt74> and start up buffs out there?
[01:24] <Tabmow> Jordan_U: figured... it is plugged in though... ohh well need to wait till I get home to investigate
[01:24] <shcherbak> linuxmonger: change wordstart and wordfinish (add read to have it without editing, fails on repetitions)
[01:24] <kasun> hi, im in ubuntu 10.10. My computer gets frozen a random times and nothing works except I had to power off the machine, HP dv5. The capslock light blinks continuosly. hapens 2-3 a week. a help please!
[01:24] <linuxmonger> shcherbak: Cool! Thank you!
[01:24] <jrt74> my "Target filesystem doesn't have /sbin/init"
[01:24] <Jesdisciple> Would anyone know how to determine the user-group of Apache's www-data?
[01:25] <Ken> Jesdisciple: Server or Desktop installation?
[01:25] <Jesdisciple> Desktop
[01:25] <Loneclock> ken when i use sudo am i root? or am i just using commands root can use?
[01:25] <jrib> Jesdisciple: is that a trick question?
[01:25] <shcherbak> linuxmonger: and set your file instead of "list"
[01:25] <jrt74> any good channel recommendations for start up issues?
[01:25] <Jesdisciple> jrib: not afaik
[01:25] <verbal__> thelinuxlink.net
[01:25] <Ken> Jesdisciple: You could go to "system -> Users/groups" and check there.
[01:25] <jrib> Jesdisciple: www-data is the default user and group that apache runs as on ubuntu
[01:25] <Qauzzix> Greetings.
[01:25] <Jesdisciple> Ken: only my personal account and root are listed there
[01:26] <craigbass1976> Jesdisciple, wouldn't either /etc/passwd or /etc/grp tell you?
[01:26] <Jesdisciple> jrib: ah, so they have the same name - thanks
[01:26] <Ken> Jesdisciple: You might have to unlock it using the "unlock" button.
[01:26] <Loneclock> ken should i make my password for aaron different than my root(sudo)  password?
[01:26] <Ken> Loneclock: You just use the commands root can use.
[01:26] <ooop> will a 64 bit version even work on a 32 bit setup?
[01:26] <Wifihelp> KM0201, didn't get an. Ubottu message
[01:26] <ooop> ubuntu 64bit
[01:26] <KM0201> Wifihelp: yeah, it didn't show...  i thought thats where it was.
[01:26] <Ken> Loneclock: No. You don't have to change it.
[01:26] <jrib> Loneclock: root password is not sudo password.  "sudo password" doesn't really have meaning
[01:27] <iShurtugal> Yeah, guys, can I have some help
[01:27] <Loneclock> jrib, when i use the sudo command i am asked to type in a password?
[01:27] <jrib> Loneclock: yes, that's your user's password
[01:27] <Wifihelp> So how do I change it
[01:27] <Loneclock> jrib, so how do you actually login as root
[01:27] <Loneclock> not that i am going too
[01:27] <Qauzzix> I just installed Ubuntu 10.10, I am trying to get my graphics card working. I had to reinstall because of problems with installing the drivers so I was wondering. How do I backup my xorg.conf file if 10.10 ? Can't find it.
[01:27] <Jesdisciple> /etc/passwd confirmed - www-data is a www-data
[01:28] <chills_518> I just got a new 64GB usb stick which is formated exfat.  It is not being seen by ubuntu.  how can I get it usable?
[01:28] <Ken> Loneclock: Generally, you don't want to. For most purposes you just use "sudo su" to log in to a terminal as root.
[01:28] <iShurtugal> I installed cataylst from hardware drivers, adn then rebooted, and now it gets to the ubuntu screen and then goes blank
[01:28] <KM0201> Wifihelp: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10223213
[01:28] <jrib> Loneclock: use sudo when you need to do something as superuser (sudo -i   will get you a root shell essentially; do not use "sudo su" for this)
[01:28] <IdleOne> Ken: sudo -i is the prefered way in Ubuntu
[01:29] <Ken> IdleOne: Apologies. Thanks for the information.
[01:29] <IdleOne> Ken: sure thing
[01:29] <Ken> Loneclock: What they said, sorry. "sudo -i"
[01:29] <Ken> Loneclock: I'm pretty sure you can't log into the desktop as Root, only the terminal. You can unlock it but there really is no need and it's not advised.
[01:29] <Loneclock> ken why would i ever want to actually login as root as opposed to just using the sudo command
[01:29] <Scott_Puopolo> Jordan_U: Livin4Jesus: just found this link...looks like it will be coming to ubuntu repos as soon as they can.....https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-96/96.43.19-0ubuntu1
[01:29] <Loneclock> using the sudo as my user*
[01:30] <KM0201> Loneclock: just use sudo  don't make a mountain out of a molehill
[01:30] <Loneclock> ken, also how do i know what my root password is? sorry KM0201 just trying to get an idea lol
[01:30] <Ken> Loneclock: For the most part you wouldn't. Logging in as root in a shell means you don't have to issue the "sudo" command before everything for a start so it's useful for carrying out a lot of commands. I would highly recommend you use "sudo" though - you're less likely to do something by accident.
[01:30] <KM0201> !root | Loneclock
[01:31] <IdleOne> Loneclock: there is no root password in Ubuntu
[01:31] <IdleOne> root is disabled, use sudo :)
[01:31] <Ken> How profound.
[01:31] <Loneclock> haha
[01:31] <tensorpudding> sudo -i is like logging into root
[01:31] <Ken> The ubottu was a bit profound. I'm sure it just went all philosophical with that statement.
[01:31] <iShurtugal> can I have some help? I installed cataylst from hardware drivers, adn then rebooted, and now it gets to the ubuntu screen and then goes blank
[01:31] <nicofs> Where is the apt list located?
[01:32] <Loneclock> okay, well even if there is a root password in ubuntu i feel slightly better
[01:32] <IdleOne> nico1038: /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:32] <coz_> /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:32] <nicofs> thx
[01:32] <IdleOne> nicofs:  /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:32] <Ken> Loneclock: Ubuntu is pretty secure. You don't need to worry about setting up stuff like a root password.
[01:32] <tensorpudding> there is a root user, it's just locked
[01:32] <Loneclock> now, is there an easy way to transfer all my thunderbird emails and password to my ubuntu partition
[01:32] <Qauzzix> How can I restore changes made to xorg configuration if there is no configuration file ?
[01:33] <Qauzzix> Want to be able to recover from me trying to install my graphics card.
[01:33] <jrib> quentusrex: that means there are no changes too
[01:33] <jrib> quentusrex: that means there are no changes too
[01:33] <Ken> Loneclock: It depends on the setup you use and the other mail client. Are you using IMAP or POP?
[01:33] <jrib> argh...
[01:33] <KM0201> Loneclock: boot windows, backup everything to file(forget how to do that).. then boot Ubuntu, and import it.
[01:33] <jrib> Qauzzix: that means there are no changes too
[01:33] <IdleOne> in thunderbird there should be an export option in the menu
[01:34] <Loneclock> ken, using gmail and hotmail
[01:34] <Rogan_> Heya... Is is possible to copy a file from an FTP server to a local directory with a single line in terminal?
[01:34] <KM0201> can thunderbird read hotmail?
[01:34] <Jordan_U> I need to leave. Anyone willing to help walk Livin4Jesus through installing the nvidia drivers from maverick-proposed if he comes back?
[01:34] <Qauzzix> jrib]$ Hummm, ok. How can I recover from wrongly installed graphics drivers then?
[01:34] <Loneclock> KM0201, backup everything to flash drive, and yes it can read hotmail just not yahoo free
[01:34] <Loneclock> KM0201, backup where?
[01:34] <KM0201> Rogan_: wget url.to.file  ?
[01:35] <Rogan_> Cheers
[01:35] <Rogan_> :)
[01:35] <iShurtugal> GUYS! PLEASE!!!! I INSTALLED THE PROPRIETARY CATALYST DRIVER FROM THE HARDWARE DRIVERS PAGE AND NOW THE SCREEN GOES BLANK AT THE UBUNTU SCREEN AT BOOT!!!!!
[01:35] <jrib> Qauzzix: you'll get an xorg.conf if you install the nvidia driver
[01:35] <jrib> !caps | iShurtugal
[01:35] <Ken> Loneclock: If you've never used it with Thuderbird before you need to enable the accounts. I'm not sure about hotmail but gmail works nicely. I advise setting up IMAP (it means any changes you make on Thunderbird will be copied to the gmail server). For Gmail see: http://www.debianadmin.com/configure-gmail-in-evolution-thunderbird-or-kmail.html
[01:36] <iShurtugal> that's the third time I've asked.....
 I need to leave. Anyone willing to help walk Livin4Jesus through installing the nvidia drivers from maverick-proposed if he comes back?   <-----  I'll just do it tomorrow. I gotta leave soon, anyway, so...
[01:36] <Livin4Jesus> I'll probably solve this tomorrow or such.
[01:36] <bastidrazor> iShurtugal: uninstall it from the recovery shell
[01:36] <Loneclock> ken is there a way i can check what it uses without logging out of ubuntu and logging into windows?
[01:36] <fifou> hye
[01:37] <Ken> Loneclock: You shouldn't have to log in/out of anything if you're just setting up a new account on Thunderbird. Do you have Thunderbird installed and set up on Windows already?
[01:37] <kasun> hi, im in ubuntu 10.10. My computer gets frozen at random times. I had to power off the machine, HP dv5. The capslock light blinks continuosly. hapens 2-3 a week. a help is appreciated!
[01:37] <Qauzzix> iShurtugal]$ Dosn't matter how often you ask. We are not here to answere questions.
[01:37] <Loneclock> ken yes thats what i am trying to sync them
[01:37] <Loneclock> dual boot ubuntu and windows 7
[01:37] <IdleOne> Qauzzix: actually we are.
[01:37] <Qauzzix> iShurtugal]$ If you are not getting answere, then its probibly because of a bad question.
[01:38] <Jesdisciple> Does anyone here know about RabbitMQ STOMP installation?  I'm not getting a response in #rabbitmq
[01:38] <Loneclock> ken thunderbird is already all set up on windows partition
[01:38] <Qauzzix> IdleOne]$ Since when did IRC turn into a support center?
[01:38] <Ken> Loneclock: Ah, I see. It really depends on how you have it set up. If you have it set up as IMAP you just have to add a few account. Otherrwise you might want to use the backup method mentioned earlier. (You'd have to log out to check if it's IMAP or POP3 though)
[01:38] <Qauzzix> IdleOne]$ And how can you tell me that I am here to answere questions.
[01:38] <IdleOne> Qauzzix: if you don't want to help that is fine but please keep your bad attitude to yourself.
[01:38] <iShurtugal> what should I uninstall exactly, I've tried  sudo apt-get --purge remove xorg-driver-fglrx fglrx and a few others
[01:38] <Qauzzix> IdleOne]$ I was trying to be helpfull.
[01:38] <Ken> Qauzzix: Er, this is the IRC support for Ubuntu. Have you read the topic?
[01:39] <IdleOne> Qauzzix: you were being rude.
[01:39] <imthenachoman> can anyone explain the display variable to me? i get the first part should be computer IP but what is after the :? 0.0? can i specify port?
[01:39] <Loneclock> ken, how can i tell what my grub screen will look like without logging ou?t
[01:39] <KM0201> Ken: don't encourage him.
[01:39] <Tito0096_> Can someone help me setup a basic chroot?
[01:39] <Livin4Jesus> Good night!
[01:39] <Qauzzix> IdleOne]$ If asking the same question again and again does not yield questsions, then someone should point that out to you.
[01:39] <Ken> Loneclock: That I don't know.
[01:39] <Qauzzix> And I think it is ro
[01:39] <Qauzzix> rude to use capslock.
[01:39] <KM0201> ..
[01:40] <IdleOne> !guidelines > Qauzzix
[01:40] <Loneclock> does anyone know how to check what the grub screen will look like without logging out?
[01:40] <Qauzzix> And I really don't think anyone here is getting paid for any support job. So be polite when you ask questions.
[01:40] <IdleOne> Qauzzix: drop it now please.
[01:40] <Ken> Loneclock: I'm not sure you can. My memory tells me something about that being possible but I honestly can't remember.
[01:41] <Ken> Hmm. I came here about an hour ago just to ask a question. IRC is evil.
[01:41] <doug> anyone ever install ubuntu server over a serial port (w/pxe)?
[01:41] <ZykoticK9> Is there a way to disable a monitor in TwinView from cli (instead of nvidia-settings)?
[01:41] <Loneclock> ken, i want to get rid of the countdown timer on grub and get rid of the old versions of linux, if possible i would also like to edit it to only say windows 7 and ubuntu without the memtest etc....do you think that would be a good or bad idea?
[01:41] <Qauzzix> IdleOne]$ Just one last thing: since your pointing me to the guidelines -> "Don't repeat your question every few minutes"
[01:42] <ubnoob> Ken, I just logged on- so whats your question?
[01:42] <shcherbak> Loneclock: check grub managers in repos (some of them had "preview" option)
[01:42] <IdleOne> IdleOne: I didn't ask a question. You may also want to read !codeofconduct
[01:42] <Ken> Loneclock: Grub2 (which is the version of Grub that Ubuntu now uses) is a bit of a pain to edit.
[01:42] <IdleOne> err
[01:42] <IdleOne> Qauzzix:  I didn't ask a question. You may also want to read !codeofconduct
[01:42] <shcherbak> Loneclock: but it was with normal grub
[01:43] <doug> does anyone remember serial ports?
[01:43] <Qauzzix> IdleOne]$ Nope, I was talking to a person that was reapeting himself and then you started talking to me about it.
[01:43] <Ken> ubnoob: I just asked about Firewire networking. I'm achieving very low transfer rates and can't see any solutions to improving it.
[01:43] <Ken> !grub2 | Loneclock
[01:43] <Qauzzix> doug]$ Yeah, had to make a program for a scale connected by serial port last year.
[01:43] <jrib> ZykoticK9: maybe with disper (have not tried personally)
[01:44] <iShurtugal> Loneclock: look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275
[01:44] <giovanni> ciao a tutti
[01:44] <Ken> Loneclock: To talk you through the process of removing stuff from Grub2 is a bit cumbersome for here. There are some good tutorials on the internet and especially the forums/wiki for Ubuntu.
[01:44] <KM0201> !it | giovanni
[01:45] <ubnoob> have you checked your ports?
[01:45] <Loneclock> iShurtugal and ken thanks for all the help so far
[01:45] <Ken> ubnoob: I have. They're both directly connected to one another with a Firewire cable.
[01:46] <Ken> Loneclock: No problem at all. Stay inquisitive and make sure you keep plenty of patience. Some of the simple things are hard to achieve and some of the hard things are simple.
[01:46] <UnholyTerror> Loneclock, http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/grub-2.html
[01:46] <Qauzzix> "Stay inquisitive and make sure you keep plenty of patienc" could not agree with that more Ken.

[01:53] <mylisto> argh this skype trhing is annoying
[01:54] <matt8104> i just resized my win7 part and can't get it to load and no repair disk,  anyone know anything i can do in grub to repair it?
[01:54] <Sary> Loneclock, i believe you can , using BURG.
[01:54] <Loneclock> sary do you know how to get rid of the countdown timer in grub?
[01:54] <UnholyTerror> Loneclock, http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/grub-2.html
[01:55] <Loneclock> UnholyTerror, thanks
[01:55] <matt8104> startup-manager at Loneclock
[01:55] <Sary> Loneclock, BURG whould do it.
[01:55] <Loneclock> matt8104,  where is startuup manager?
[01:55] <matt8104> apt-get install startup-manager
[01:56] <Ken> Loneclock: You need to install startup-manager most likely.
[01:56] <matt8104> then its in administrationi think
[01:56] <Qauzzix> jrib]$ Interesting enough, the ati driver also came with aticonfig that made the xorg file. So it works for both nvidia and ati.
[01:56] <matt8104> ya you can search and install it through the software centre Lone
[01:57] <Dimitar> what does echo -n mean?
[01:57] <jrib> Qauzzix: yes
[01:57] <doomcup_> Hi, I'm trying to connect to my Windows 7 box via samba
[01:57] <doomcup_> But it refuses to accept my password
[01:57] <Sary> Loneclock, http://ubuntumanual.org/posts/257/burg-gorgeous-alternative-to-grub-add-icons-animated-menus-and-themes  .. and you can install BURG Manager , form managing and more themes.
[01:57] <doomcup_> Or any password
[01:57] <doomcup_> Or username
[01:57] <phillyj> should I get ubuntu 10.10 or 10.04?
[01:57] <doomcup_> Troublesome, as I'm trying to use a shared network printer
[01:58] <Loneclock> matt8104, http://pastebin.com/1QFaJ8q7
[01:58] <shcherba1> nice, natty lives
[01:58] <Ken> Loneclock: Look at the link Sary posted. It'll do most of your stuff with Grub2 for you. (Or give you the tools anyhow)
[01:58] <paynekidd> @phillyj 10.10
[01:58] <aeon-ltd> phillyj: depends, do you need  guaranteed stability for long term if so get 10.04 if not 10.10
[01:58] <rafase282> hello
[01:59] <rafase282> Anyone here able to install ubuntu on an archos 5?
[01:59] <ubnoob> phillyj: what system do you currently have
[01:59] <Ken> Alright. 2am. I think it's probably time I should get some sleep.
[01:59] <Loneclock> ken how do i know the drive where burg should reside?
[02:00] <phillyj> ubnoob: i got windows xp, i'm getting wubi; this is my third reinstall since june since they break for no reason
[02:00] <doomcup_> I'd really like to know why it won't accept any combination of usernames and passwords I'm throwing at it
[02:00] <Ken> Loneclock: Not sure, i've never installed it. It'll probably be your first hard drive, though. /dev/sda I'd imagine.
[02:00] <doomcup_> I can connect to it just fine from other computers
[02:00] <mylisto> anyone else able to log into skype yet?
[02:00] <phillyj> aeon-ltd: i just want something that won't crash
[02:00] <doomcup_> It's just this laptop running 32-bit ubuntu 10.10 that can't
[02:00] <Ken> Loneclock: Open up the terminal and pastebin the output of "sudo fdisk -l"
[02:00] <UnholyTerror> Loneclock, I wouldn't go altering stuff until you learn abit more...
[02:01] <ubnoob> <phillyj: i up graded from 10.04 to 10.10 and so far it has been wonderful
[02:01] <doomcup_> Anyone?
[02:01] <Loneclock> UnholyTerror, the only thing i really want to alter is the countdown timer on grub lol
[02:01] <adam__> I got a question
[02:01] <UnholyTerror> Loneclock, http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/grub-2.html
[02:01] <KM0201> UnholyTerror: thats good advice if i ever heard it.. i love the people that install in the morning, and by mid afternoon, they want to know how to compile drivers and source code, and by evening, they wanna learn to programs..
[02:01] <adam__> I have a widescreen LCD and the native resolution is 1280.1024
[02:01] <phillyj> ubnoob: alright, 10.10 it is
[02:01] <doomcup_> Shall I just go ask somewhere else?
[02:01] <Sary> Loneclock, BURG Manager , it's better installing from the PPA to keep up to date  http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/07/burg-boot-loader-installation-themeing-more-gets-even-easier-with-burg-manager-app/
[02:01] <adam__> but for some reason, it only supports 4:3 instead of 16:9
[02:02] <adam__> this worked fine with my nvidia card but with ATI it doesn't
[02:02] <Rogan__> Heya (again). For a wget from a local ftp server, I'm getting login incorrect even though the same details work through a ftp gui.  I've had that issue in the past but i've since stopped using Samba. It'll be a problem somewhere in the config file.
[02:02] <adam__> KM0201, I know.
[02:02] <adam__> I need a solution though
[02:02] <adam__> everything looks squashed
[02:02] <UnholyTerror> KM0201, ;)
[02:03] <doomcup_> Ken: thanks
[02:03] <doomcup_> Where should I start?.
[02:03] <Ken> doomcup_: Er, it's 2am and it's been a while since I used Samba. Give me a minute or five and i'll see what I can turn up. I vaguely remember that I had to make sure I added my username (the one on the client that was connection to the samba share) in the config file. Sorry it's so vague.
[02:04] <nsar> hello
[02:04] <phillyj> hmm, the wubi site is different; is there a WUBI download that I can burn on a disc in case I have to reinstall?
[02:04] <Rogan__> Last day of work this yearrrrrrrrrrrr
[02:05] <nsar> why on the synaptic package manager trying to reload the repositories i got so many failed repositories when it is trying to download them?
[02:05] <KM0201> phillyj: wubi is on the normal ubuntu CD.. download it and burn it.. although i can't imagine anyone wanting to use Wubi
[02:05] <Ken> Rogan__: I didn't even know you could use wget for FTP. Ubuntu has a built in ftp access in the commandline which might be a bit more suitable. Alternatively, scp which is more secure.
[02:06] <xangua> nsar: what failed repositories¿
[02:06] <nsar> wait
[02:06] <nsar> translation-en_US
[02:07] <nsar> and release-gpg
[02:07] <doomcup_> My problem is I can see my windows box on the network
[02:07] <nsar> i am located in philippines if that is important
[02:07] <glitchd> help, im trying to set nautilus so that alt+left arrow key goes back, alt+up arrow key goes up a dir.
[02:07] <doomcup_> But when I try to send something to the printer or access the shares it asks for authentication
[02:07] <doomcup_> In a neverending loop
[02:07] <Rogan__> Sure can. I'm actually accessing a ubuntu ftp server from some terrible old gentoo installation, which is why I'm using wget.  SCP Didn't seem to work, is that because this server is hosting ftp?
[02:07] <doomcup_> It won't accept anything
[02:07] <doug> Qauzzix: got notes on how you did the install over serial?
[02:08] <UnholyTerror> doomcup_, we've all had that problem!
[02:08] <xangua> nsar: what exactly error message did you get¿
[02:08] <Ken> Rogan__: If it helps..
[02:08] <glitchd> is there a way to change the nautilus shortcuts?
[02:08] <doomcup_> UnholyTerror, is there a way to fix it?
[02:08] <glitchd> or keybindings?
[02:08] <nsar> failed instead of the download bar increasing from 1 to 100 %
[02:08] <Ken> Rogan__: wget --ftp-user=USER --ftp-password=PASSWORD ftp://SERVER         that's the format for FTP.
[02:08] <UnholyTerror> doomcup_, did you set up the share on the windows side?
[02:08] <doomcup_> Yes
[02:09] <Rogan__> thanks :)
[02:09] <phillyj> KM0201: is WUBI an option when i run the iso?
[02:09] <Ken> nsar: I think that's the second problem like that tonight. Try running it again later - it might be a network issue.
[02:09] <KM0201> phillyj: yes, insert the ISO and there will be the wubi EXE on there
[02:09] <Ken> phillyj: Yes, if you put in the install CD when you're logged into Windows.
[02:09] <nsar> on the window that is writing downloading package information
[02:09] <UnholyTerror> doomcup_, is the workgroup correct?
[02:09] <nsar> so problem from the servers?
[02:09] <doomcup_> Yes
[02:10] <nsar> thanks for the help
[02:10] <Ken> nsar: Possibly. I can't confirm it though, but someone else had the same issue earlier. Try running "sudo apt-get update" from the terminal
[02:10] <glitchd> is there a way to make alt+left go back a directory?
[02:10] <blbrown_win3> I am trying to do a a build on an application.  Has anyone seen this error before.  Which library do I need to install?  I am assuming something related to X11 -DEV ? X11/extensions/shape.h: No such file or directory
[02:10] <andranis> akarta
[02:11] <nsar> ok
[02:11] <Ken> glitchd: Consider looking into the "keyboard shortcuts" in your preferences.
[02:11] <joshua-carmack> can anyone help me with setting up an extra monitor?
[02:11] <glitchd> Ken, i checked that
[02:11] <glitchd> Ken, its not in there
[02:11] <UnholyTerror> doomcup_, you could try uninstalling/reinstalling SAMBA...
[02:11] <glitchd> Ken, i think its in a config file somewhere
[02:11] <doomcup_> Tried that
[02:11] <doomcup_> No dice
[02:11] <glitchd> Ken, which one, i dont know
[02:11] <Ken> glitchd: It might be in gconfig-editor somewhere.
[02:11] <glitchd> Ken, they i guess ill keep lookin thru it
[02:11] <glitchd> thx
[02:12] <jrib> !find shape.h
[02:12] <blbrown_win3> nice
[02:12] <Ken> glitchd: Sure thing. It should be somewhere under "apps->nautilus" I'll see if I can find it.
[02:12] <UnholyTerror> doomcup_, I've never had a problem, never had to even touch a samba config file... sorry.

[02:24] <glitchd> Ken, to funny and creepy at the same tine, i just opened that right before u sent it to me
[02:24] <Jezek> joeoshawa: oh im there already
[02:24] <joeoshawa> Jezek: from live cd
[02:24] <UnholyTerror> Ken, I thought he said nvidia...
[02:24] <Ken> glitchd: More creepy than anything. I'm looking in your window :-)
[02:25] <joeoshawa> partition cannot be mounted
[02:25] <glitchd> Ken, im in the garage
[02:25] <glitchd> Ken, no windows
[02:25] <dragonstone> UnholyTerror, if I right-click on the panel, i can't remove it. If i right-click on the NetworkManager icon I can't remove that either. I am currently testingon Mint.
[02:25] <Ken> UnholyTerror: You could very much be correct.
[02:25] <Jezek> joeoshawa: it says i cant resize anymore though
[02:25] <glitchd> Ken, so ur lookin in my neighbors house buddy
[02:25] <Ken> glitchd: That's awkward. I have no idea who i'm peering in at then.
[02:25] <UnholyTerror> Ken, nope intel...
[02:25] <joeoshawa> is it mounted
[02:25] <glitchd> Ken, thats more creepy
[02:25] <Jezek> i dont have anything mounted
[02:25] <joeoshawa> your using a live cd?
[02:25] <UnholyTerror> joshua-carmack
[02:26] <Jezek> joeoshawa: yes
[02:26] <joeoshawa> how many partitions do you you have on that drive already
[02:26] <joeoshawa> 4?
[02:26] <UnholyTerror> dragonstone, do you see the little vertical hash marks on the panel?
[02:26] <Ken> Alright, I'm really going to bed this time. Stop distracting me with questions! Shame on you all.
[02:26] <joshua-carmack> UnholyTerror, yes?
[02:27] <Ken> Again, have a nice evening/night/suitable day part and happy troubleshooting.
[02:27] <Jezek> joeoshawa: http://i.imgur.com/0X7DC.png
[02:27] <Jezek> can't resize it :/
[02:27] <UnholyTerror> that's it... it's called notification-applet i think.
[02:27] <dragonstone> UnholyTerror, sorry, no vertical hashes on the panel
[02:27] <newman> Can error msg "FreeType: couldn't find encoding 'iso8859-14' for '/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType/Georgia_italic.ttf" be solved by installing some package with synaptic or apt-get?
[02:27] <Ken> Er, although.. one last time. Anyone know much about Firewire networking, specifically improving network performance?
[02:28] <dragonstone> UnholyTerror, it's just wierd. I have to kill NetworkManager before I can see it.
[02:28] <joshua-carmack> can anyone help me with setting up dual monitors? i tried reading stuff but its not helping me at all
[02:28] <UnholyTerror> dragonstone, can you pastebin a screen capture with the network manager on the panel?
[02:28] <Ken> quit
[02:28] <Ken> er..
[02:28] <Ken> Silly me.
[02:28] <UnholyTerror> joshua-carmack, what point are you at?
[02:29] <joeoshawa> you already maxed out your partitions so you have to use sub partitions
[02:29] <joshua-carmack> UnholyTerror, well i dont know what to say, i just cant even get started
[02:29] <joeoshawa> i think that's what its called
[02:29] <UnholyTerror> joshua-carmack, see me in private...
[02:30] <joeoshawa> you got it resized all to hell have you considered buying another drive
[02:30] <dragonstone> UnholyTerror, sorry it's on another computer. I am not even sure how I would send a screenshot via IRC.
[02:30] <joeoshawa> drives are cheap nowdays
[02:30] <IdleOne> joeoshawa: I would delete one of those swap partitions and sda5 then make a partition with all that unallocated space.
[02:30] <chills518> is there a way for me to get ubuntu to mount my new usb flash drive which is exfat formatted?  I need it to be useable for windows and ubuntu....
[02:30] <joeoshawa> you could do that
[02:30] <joeoshawa> great idea
[02:31] <joeoshawa> you only need one swap for all linux installs
[02:31] <UnholyTerror> dragonstone, the notification-applet looks like little speed bumps, it houses several icons...
[02:31] <joeoshawa> i have ubuntu 64 and 32 both 10.10 and one swap space
[02:31] <joeoshawa> and you want the same swap as physical mem
[02:32] <joeoshawa> however suspend always borks on me so i really don't need any swap
[02:33] <Jezek> alright acidentelly unplugged laptop
[02:33] <IdleOne> Jezek: the reason why you can't resize sda5 is because it is sandwiched between unallocated space. Delete one of the swap partitions (you only need one), also delete sda5, then format all the unallocated space to ext4 and you will be able to use it.
[02:34] <Jezek> IdleOne: the swaps have a key next to them..
[02:34] <dragonstone> UnholyTerror, I understand what you are reffering to as I see it in Debian but loks like Mint has added some "elegance" so the panel is at the bottom and is completely smooth with no breaks.
[02:35] <Jezek> do i do swapoff?
[02:35] <IdleOne> Jezek: unmount the one you are deleting
[02:35] <joeoshawa> the whole drive must be unmounted
[02:35] <Jezek> how?
[02:35] <joeoshawa> that is why i said use a live cd
[02:35] <IdleOne> joeoshawa: Jezek do this from the Live CD
[02:36] <Jezek> IdleOne: im there
[02:36] <IdleOne> Jezek: you are in gparted now right?
[02:36] <Jezek> yes
[02:36] <joeoshawa> and only one swap is necessary for all linux installs
[02:36] <IdleOne> ok, swap off or unmount. I don't remember the terminology used
[02:37] <IdleOne> Jezek: also unmount sda5 (that tiny little partition stuck in the middle like a only child)
[02:37] <Jezek> ok
[02:37] <Jezek> IdleOne: its not mounted
[02:37] <UnholyTerror> dragonstone, hmmm.... i have lm10 but not on this machine.
[02:38] <IdleOne> Jezek: now delete the swap and sda5
[02:38] <IdleOne> Jezek: look twice, make sure you are deleting the right partition.
[02:38] <Jezek> IdleOne: im already using sda5
[02:38] <Guest37518> hi
[02:38] <IdleOne> Jezek: it has data on it? sda5 that is
[02:38] <Jezek> IdleOne: i want to resize a partition i am already using
[02:38] <dragonstone> UnholyTerror, thanx for the info anyway. might have just given me the direction I needed to figure it out.
[02:38] <Jezek> yes
[02:39] <UnholyTerror> dragonstone, i'm gonna go fire up the VM and see for myself...
[02:39] <IdleOne> Jezek: ok. you see the unallocated space to the left of sda5, you want to format that to ext4. after wards you will be able to resize sda5.
[02:39] <joeoshawa> jezek is sda5 a linux install or just space
[02:39] <rogue780> Hi. I have an HP Mini 110 with the broadcom 43x series wireless card. I just installed, but I can't see any wireless networks. I have the STA drivers installed. Does anyone know what I need to do to get wireless to work? I'm on the netbook now using an ethernet cable.
[02:39] <Jezek> joeoshawa: ubuntu
[02:40] <joeoshawa> crap
[02:40] <dragonstone> UnholyTerror, ok
[02:40] <IdleOne> Jezek: sda5 is your ubuntu install?
[02:40] <JCDG> Hello...why Ubuntu is showing some text on the boot process instead of Plymouth???...
[02:40] <Jezek> IdleOne: yes
[02:40] <IdleOne> oh
[02:40] <Jezek> IdleOne: how would i move it to ext4
[02:41] <IdleOne> Jezek: select the unallocated space then right click and format to ext4.
[02:41] <joeoshawa> IdleOne could he add the unallocated space to sda5
[02:41] <Jezek> IdleOne: format is greyed out
[02:41] <joeoshawa> then resize after
[02:41] <IdleOne> joeoshawa: yes but it needs to be formated first
[02:41] <jacobr> What is the package name that adds all the special visual effects? like the flames and what not.
[02:41] <joeoshawa> damn
[02:42] <Jezek> IdleOne: you mean the gray area
[02:42] <IdleOne> Jezek: correct
[02:42] <DIL> compiz?
[02:42] <joeoshawa> he has 4 main partitions i don't think he can add another
[02:42] <Jezek> IdleOne: i cant do anything to that space
[02:42] <IdleOne> Jezek: why not?
[02:42] <Jezek> format to is greyed out
[02:42] <xangua> !compiz | jacobr
[02:42] <IdleOne> jacobr: compizconfig-settings-manager
[02:42] <chills518> does ubuntu support exfat usb sticks?
[02:42] <UnholyTerror> dragonstone, ok, on mine the network indicator and the update-manager are both in the bottom right corner with three little hash marks to the left of the update-manager.
[02:43] <joeoshawa> is anything from the physical drive mounted jezek
[02:43] <UnholyTerror> dragonstone, hard to see...
[02:43] <IdleOne> Jezek: ok close gparted, then alt-f2 and type in the box gksudo gparted
[02:43] <cr215> hello ubuntuuuuuuuuuuu!
[02:43] <deco> is there an application that keeps track of much i have downloaded ?
[02:44] <Sensenetheru> hello! I am trying to install a ra3370 wireless network adapter on ubuntu 10.10. i am partway thru the install and now im stuck. can anyone help?
[02:44] <joeoshawa> what are you stuck on
[02:44] <JCDG> hello, is anyone there?
[02:44] <joeoshawa> i know about network adapters but not wireless
[02:44] <Sensenetheru> i started with the files on the cd, run tar -xvf the.tar.gz file,  cd 2010_0223_RT3370_LinuxSTA_V<IP_ADDRESS> , ran 'sudo make' and now idk what to do
[02:45] <DIL> 1377
[02:45] <joeoshawa> ./configure
[02:45] <Jezek> IdleOne: ok
[02:45] <joeoshawa> make
[02:45] <joeoshawa> make install
[02:45] <dragonstone> UnholyTeror, I still didn't see it but I started right-clicking just to the left of the update icon and got the option to remove. I then re-added and restarted.
[02:45] <IdleOne> Jezek: you able to format that space now?
[02:46] <cr215> so i found this sick mitsubishi diamond tel car phone thatt came with a dodge my moms bought in 1991 its from the mid 90s.....   basically just the headset part with a phone cord that ends in an ethernet input
[02:46] <Jezek> IdleOne: the gray box?
[02:46] <Jezek> IdleOne: format to is grayed out
[02:46] <cr215> and if anywhere is the place to try n have fin with it its linux
[02:46] <UnholyTerror> cr215, I think I know one of your moms...
[02:46] <cr215> haha
[02:46] <IdleOne> Jezek: there is something you are not doing properly
[02:46] <joeoshawa> Sensenetheru: anything installed from source follows that format ./configure if that does nothing or says nothing to configure move on to make then make install
[02:47] <Jezek> IdleOne: did exactly what you said
[02:47] <cr215> where ya  from unholyterror
[02:47] <UnholyTerror> dragonstone, Land of Magic
[02:47] <IdleOne> !ot
[02:47] <needlez> anyone here know what the deal is with gnome-power-manager not putting a computer to sleep after a video has stopped playing
[02:47] <cr215> sweeet
[02:47] <needlez> ?
[02:47] <joeoshawa> ohhh cr215 that sounds like fun wonder if you could get it working in skype
[02:48] <IdleOne> Jezek: alright so you restarted gparted with gksudo?
[02:48] <Jezek> yes
[02:48] <UnholyTerror> cr215, O-Town
[02:48] <chills518> does ubuntu support usb drives formated with exfat
[02:48] <joeoshawa> use it with a carputer
[02:48] <UnholyTerror> dragonstone, ????
[02:48] <dragonstone> UnlohyTerror, ok...it's not the notification applet. I have the icon for updates but no network manager....also, I have no network connectivity even though I am hardwired. If i runn the "killall NetworkManager" the icon pops up and says wired network is unmanaged but the wireless works fine.
[02:48] <durando> Hey guys is it possible to grow a raid 5 array
[02:48] <Sensenetheru> @joeoshawa ok, i'll try that
[02:48] <IdleOne> Jezek: now click on the grey-unallocated space to the left of sda5
[02:48] <cr215> thaats what i wanna do joeoshawa
[02:48] <IdleOne> Jezek: right click and you should be able to format to ext4
[02:49] <cr215> it will prolly be crappy but i just wanna try for fun
[02:49] <cr215> the sound quality i mean
[02:49] <dragonstone> UnholyTerror, I also notice, on Debian if I run that command the app dies and stays dead. In Ubuntu and Mint it re-launched automatically.
[02:49] <psycho_oreos> dragonstone, maybe your wired connectivity is managed by another network manager tool such as wicd or even ifupdown?
[02:49] <Jezek> IdleOne: i cant
[02:49] <joeoshawa> there is a guy who has a whole carputer setup using ubuntu it rolls the windows up and down and all sorts of cool stuff they could probably help
[02:50] <cr215> but i might have to open this thing up n see if i can find a way to make power go to it cuz the ethernet cant do that
[02:50] <IdleOne> Jezek: I am not sure what else to tell you now. Basically you need to format that grey space to ext4 and after you will be able to resize sda5
[02:50] <UnholyTerror> dragonstone, the only thing I can try to tell you is try ##gnome at this point. I'm still looking aroound.
[02:50] <Crhistoph> can someone highlight me please to test something?
[02:50] <joeoshawa> i want to rig a car with controls for everything seats windows door locks ignition everything
[02:50] <dragonstone> UnholyTerror, I don't have WICD installed but ifdown is possible. This is a fresh install so I have not made any customizations and this seems to be the same behavior for the last thre installs.
[02:50] <dragonstone> UnHolyTerror, I'll try that..thanks for your help
[02:50] <mustafa> hi
[02:51] <IdleOne> Jezek: the unallocated space is like a blank piece of paper, gparted can see it but it has no value at the moment so doesn't know how to use it.
[02:51] <Jezek> IdleOne: cant i use the 28.87 gb of unallocated space?
[02:51] <Jezek> oh
[02:51] <joeoshawa> put a fingerprint analizer in the door to open and start the car
[02:51] <moocawne> needlez: it worked!!!!!
[02:51] <mustafa> hi
[02:51] <cr215> jouoshawa that sounds nice
[02:51] <Jezek> IdleOne: i already have 28gb of unallocated space in ext4
[02:51] <moocawne> needlez: Thanks so much for your help! Now to go and try and get it working on windows 7!
[02:52] <cr215> i guess in thee 80's car phones like this the power did come in through the ethernet line
[02:52] <tilted_mind> Crhistoph: sure.
[02:52] <IdleOne> Jezek: give me that pastebin link again please
[02:52] <mustafa> ı have a problem pls help me about my dvdr not working on xubuntu
[02:52] <needlez> moocawne glad to hear that
[02:52] <joeoshawa> hook the stearing lock to a motor somehow so the fingerprint analizer unlocks the stearing too
[02:52] <Crhistoph> tilted_mind: Thanks, worked!
[02:52] <Jezek> the imgur link? i lost it my computer got restarted.
[02:52] <cr215> im peeling back a little ribber now n ill  let ya's kno
[02:52] <Guest37518> disconnect
[02:52] <moocawne> needlez: thanks again!
[02:52] <mustafa> ı have a problem pls help me about my dvdr not working on xubuntu
[02:52] <IdleOne> Jezek: ok let me see if I can find it again :)
[02:52] <cr215> if nobody cares just tell me n ill shut up lol its just go me exited
[02:52] <needlez> in windows 7 just go to computer device manager and have windows find the drivers
[02:52] <chills518> does ubuntu support usb drives formated with exfat
[02:53] <Crhistoph> tilted_mind: (configuring irssi with a hilight window so wanted to check...)
[02:53] <needlez> you welcome, and just remember if that happens again what you did to fix it
[02:53] <joeoshawa> cr215 if you can get it working it would probably sound great my buddy has one in his mothers tahoe
[02:53] <IdleOne> Jezek: http://i.imgur.com/0X7DC.png
[02:53] <psycho_oreos> chills518, never heard of exfat, but fat should work
[02:53] <cr215> mine was in a dodge dynasty
[02:53] <Jezek> IdleOne: yes that is me
[02:53] <tilted_mind> Crhistoph: no problem.
[02:53] <cr215> an 89
[02:54] <joeoshawa> cr215 you got me wondering i could get the one from the tahoe
[02:54] <cr215> so this is prolly from 89
[02:54] <newman> When I run "sudo nvidia-settings" I get "ERROR: The control display is undefined". Why? Anyone knows what I should type to get past that?
[02:54] <IdleOne> Jezek: ok do you still have the same partitions or did you edit anything?
[02:54] <mustafa> how can ı mount cd rom my dvr not workin does it need to be installed or what
[02:54] <shadaloo> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[02:54] <shadaloo> where do I do this
[02:54] <shadaloo> specify filesystem
[02:54] <Jezek> http://i.imgur.com/Akn7p.png
[02:54] <psycho_oreos> mount -t type
[02:54] <shadaloo> ps psycho_oreos
[02:54] <shadaloo> ty*
[02:54] <psycho_oreos> nw
[02:55] <cr215> ooo it ws made in 92
[02:55] <shadaloo> is ntfs acceptable?
[02:55] <joeoshawa> is there a model number on the phone
[02:55] <Jezek> IdleOne: thats what it looks like now
[02:55] <chills518> psycho_oreos:  when I format it in windows I only have NTFS or exFat options.  and exfat doesn't seem to be recognized in ubuntu.  I heard NTFS wasn't good for flash drives but I guess I may not have a choice..
[02:55] <mustafa> ı need some one to help me pls ım new
[02:55] <joeoshawa> i can see if someone has hacked it
[02:55] <psycho_oreos> shadaloo, should be, if not try using fuse iirc.. or just check via cat /proc/filesystem for supported fs types
[02:55] <IdleOne> Jezek: when you right click on the 14.54GB what options do you have?
[02:55] <DIL> mustafa | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs
[02:55] <shadaloo> psycho_oreos: my nga
[02:55] <Sary> mustafa, Ahlaan , ask away.
[02:56] <Jezek> IdleOne: new and information
[02:56] <mustafa> thanks
[02:56] <IdleOne> Jezek: Jezek click new
[02:56] <IdleOne> err
[02:56] <psycho_oreos> chills518, well I have not heard of exfat for sure, iirc windows only supports fat and ntfs but exfat could be something introduced under windows 7
[02:56] <glitchd> anyone know how to change the back shortcut in nautilus of ubuntu 10.04??
[02:56] <Jezek> IdleOne: not possible to create more than 4
[02:56] <Jezek> etc.
[02:57] <cr215> sweet i just got a page hat says which color wire is for what in the diamond tel car phone headset's cord
[02:57] <joeoshawa> jezek you have to add it to another partition
[02:57] <psycho_oreos> mustafa, you have not specified what sort of dvd media it is apart from being dvdr, is it blank disc or what?
[02:57]  * Sary mustafa, for arabic support , you can /join #ubuntu-arabic
[02:57] <Jezek> joeoshawa: how..
[02:57] <mustafa> dvdr ım turk not arabic :D
[02:58] <Sary> thought you're , my bad :D
[02:58] <psycho_oreos> chills518, another possibility is the option to try and mount it as vfat.. again not that I know it will work with exfat but there's that possibility
[02:58] <mustafa> :D
[02:58] <joeoshawa> Jezek: probably remove a partition and make a new one and make two sub-partitons
[02:58] <cr215> joeoshawa, your friends diamondtel car phone from the 80s still has service today??
[02:58] <joeoshawa> yeah
[02:58] <joeoshawa> dunno if it is the same make and model but it is still working
[02:58] <Jezek> joeoshawa: i can't really delete anything
[02:58] <IdleOne> joeoshawa: what exactly is on sda5, any important files or is it a fresh install of ubuntu?
[02:59] <mustafa> ı have dvdr and ıts not working wit xubuntu they say mount it but it cant be mounted
[02:59] <cr215> where did u say u live at
[02:59] <cr215> i mean otown is where?
[02:59] <IdleOne> Jezek:  what exactly is on sda5, any important files or is it a fresh install of ubuntu?
[02:59] <chills518> psycho_oreos:  I found a page which talks about a beta for fuse-exfat from ppa:relan/exfat.  but I'm kind of new to ubuntu and am not sure about trying this.  I will look into your vfat suggestion.
[02:59] <cr215> im in the philly area
[02:59] <IdleOne> sorry joeoshawa :)
[02:59] <joeoshawa> i remember cause he can use his dads voiceprint
[02:59] <joeoshawa> np
[02:59] <joeoshawa> jezek can you copy the important data of the ubuntu install and reinstall?
[02:59] <Jezek> IdleOne: it's just install of ubuntu. not many important files.
[03:00] <Jezek> IdleOne: i can't re-install lol. dvd isnt working
[03:00] <joeoshawa> damn
[03:00] <joeoshawa> you have another puter
[03:00] <pills> Hi All - I am attempting to connect my Samsung T240HD LCD monitor via DIV to my laptop running ubuntu 10.04 (2.6.32-25) and no display is detected when using nvidia-settings (driver 260.19.21, 280M). Has anyone run up against this problem?
[03:00] <IdleOne> Jezek: you have a USB stick?
[03:00] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> hello does anyone here knows howto turn off instruments in tuxguitar? i would like only the guitar to sound when i hit space =)
[03:00] <psycho_oreos> chills518, I had a quick search into exfat via google and found information from wikipedia, it seems as though vfat option via mount wouldn't be supported as this is a relatively new fs.. that ppa page will come in really handy should you decide to acquire exfat support under linux
[03:00] <Jezek> IdleOne: somewhere. would it make a diff. if i did a usb install though?
[03:01] <Jezek> i've tried with all the various boot options too, it just freezes / hangs up
[03:01] <joeoshawa> Jezek: no but make sure the stick is at least 2 gig and you can boot from it
[03:01] <joeoshawa> tried this
[03:01] <joeoshawa> 1gig no good
[03:01] <Jezek> joeoshawa: can i boot without installing anything?
[03:02] <joeoshawa> yeah
[03:02] <cr215> i have 12 dell octoplex's i just got yesterday from my neighbor
[03:02] <cr215> these things are sweet
[03:02] <IdleOne> Jezek: USB install is the same as a cd install. What you want to do though is during the install select manual partition and make sure you use all that unallocated space.
[03:02] <chills518> psycho_oreos:  thanks for the help.  being so new to ubuntu I'm nervous about 'trying' things like the fuse-exfat I mentioned as I don't know how to undo changes like that yet.. lol  thanks again.  I will keep looking.
[03:02] <cr215> his company upgraded the computers n he just brought them home n game em to me
[03:02] <joeoshawa> Jezek: once it is done it is a live cd
[03:03] <IdleOne> !usb | Jezek
[03:03] <Jezek> gotta go, thanks for help
[03:03] <joeoshawa> Jezek: how are you using a live cd for partition manager if you have no drive???
[03:03] <cr215> i called denn and because there corperate they have lifetime support just like this lattitude laptop i dave
[03:03] <Jezek> i have a hard drive lol

[03:04] <psycho_oreos> chills518, well fuse is a extension for supporting new filesystems under linux, it seems as though its basically a framework for new filesystems without having to create the whole mount kaboodle thing.. I suppose the ppa stuff can be removed by simply removing the installed package and then either disable or remove the ppa repository link from your apt config should work
[03:05] <needlez> anyone have any ideas why a computer wont sleep after totem quits playing the movie file
[03:05] <needlez> ??

[03:07] <sacarlson> Tito0096: what you need to chroot for?
[03:07] <needlez> joeoshawa im refering to the fact that i have it set to sleep after 30 min of inactivity and if totem is up even if movie has stopped it wont go into sleep mode automatically
[03:08] <Tito0096> sarcarlson
[03:08] <rachael_> i can see my network in network tools but cant tell if im connected or not

[03:09] <KM0201> ok
[03:09] <psycho_oreos> chills518, no worries
[03:09] <KM0201> rachael_: well, its not notification area
[03:09] <IdleOne> indicator-appley
[03:09] <IdleOne> indicator-applet
[03:09] <joeoshawa> i wanted to save hydro so i tried to have ubuntu stop everything in full suspend when not in use and everything hung
[03:09] <rachael_> what package is that wirelss icon from
[03:10] <KM0201> IdleOne: xchat is showing... so indicator applet is there.
[03:10] <nit-wit> rachael_, if you don't tab complete we don't know your answering us. :) yes right click the panel add to panel the notification area
[03:10] <joeoshawa> no responce no wake
[03:10] <IdleOne> rachael_: indicator-applet
[03:10] <joeoshawa> had to hit the power on the back
[03:10] <IdleOne> KM0201: right, hmm maybe it's broken. now that I look up I don't have the network icon either
[03:10] <rallias> How do I tell Ubuntu to route its traffic through gogoc?
[03:10] <KM0201> IdleOne: something isnt right.. cuz if xchat is in her panel(and she said it was) then notification area is working
[03:11] <joeoshawa> anyone know anything about ltsp i am stuck
[03:12] <joeoshawa> i got everything ready for a thin client but i cannot build ltsp it keeps dl ing the 64 bit files for a 32 bit client then erroring dependancies not met
[03:12] <rachael_> indicator app is there
[03:12] <ns5> There is no network icon on my gnome panel, hwo can I get it?
[03:13] <joeoshawa> rachael_: use sinaptic to reinstall wireless no?
[03:13] <KM0201> rachael_: its not indicator app that has network applet anyway, its notification area
[03:13] <IdleOne> rachael_: ns5 seems there is a bug in indicator-applet
[03:13] <rallias> ns5: There is no way to recover it.
[03:13] <n2diy> I found a camera that appears to hook up to a game port, can anybody help me test it?
[03:13] <IdleOne> KM0201: indicator-applet is supposed to have the network indicator now
[03:13] <joeoshawa> n2diy is there a model number
[03:13] <rachael_> joeoshawa, whats the pacakge name?
[03:14] <KM0201> IdleOne: i just removed it, and it removed my  network applet
[03:14] <joeoshawa> umm i just was looking at it one sec
[03:14] <IdleOne> hmmm
[03:14] <KM0201> IdleOne: definitely not indicator-applet
[03:14] <IdleOne> KM0201: you are correct sir. :)
[03:14] <KM0201> IdleOne: i know.. :)
[03:14] <n2diy> joeoshawa, no,
[03:15] <IdleOne> rachael_: ns5 add to panel "notification area"
[03:15] <KM0201> and she apparently has xchat in her panel, which means notification area is working
[03:15] <joeoshawa> wifi radar
[03:15] <joeoshawa> and iw
[03:15] <IdleOne> KM0201: could just be a hicup and needs to readd it
[03:15] <KM0201> IdleOne: would installing that other network manager work?... wicd  i think uits called?
[03:16] <rachael_> IdleOne, ok
[03:16] <ns5> IdleOne: I already have it on the panel
[03:16] <rachael_> its there
[03:16] <KM0201> IdleOne: maybe...
[03:16] <rachael_> three lines
[03:16] <joeoshawa> KM0201: wcid, wifi radar, and iw
[03:16] <KM0201> joeoshawa:
[03:16] <KM0201> ok
[03:16] <IdleOne> wicd*
[03:16] <joeoshawa> sorry KM)@)!
[03:16] <joeoshawa> ooops
[03:16] <joeoshawa> KM0201: sorry
[03:16] <needlez> anyone help with gnome-power-manager and totem pm and ill give you details
[03:17] <KM0201> joeoshawa: it happens
[03:17] <rachael_> notification area did nothing
[03:17] <joeoshawa> rachael_: wcid, wifi radar, and iw
[03:17] <IdleOne> rachael_: killall gnome-panel
[03:17] <joeoshawa> i don't know what you had installed but they look like good packages
[03:17] <KM0201> i'd probably try installing wicd, see what does, but thats just me
[03:18] <joeoshawa> that looks like her best bet
[03:18] <joeoshawa> brb baby crying
[03:18] <glitchd> someone tell me how to fix this, please. http://pastie.org/1399657
[03:18] <KM0201> cuz wicd, is designed to remove network manager anyway
[03:18] <heoa> Suppose you did "$ sudo apt-get purge python-2.6", is there some command to fix dependencies and "undo" it? Please, note that most of Ubuntu pling-plings seems to be based on python-2.6.
[03:19] <jacobr> In Compiz config, where is the setting to add the flames when minimizing windows?
[03:19] <IdleOne> glitchd: where did you get that package?
[03:19] <rachael_> IdleOne, killall gnome panel did nothing
[03:19] <linuxthefish> Test
[03:19] <i_is_broke> !fail
[03:19] <glitchd> IdleOne, i believe from synaptic
[03:19] <KM0201> rachael_: have you considered installign wicd?  it's another network manager.
[03:19] <huskers> can someone tell me the best approach to uninstalling an application that was installed via compiling/installing?
[03:20] <IdleOne> glitchd: sudo apt-get install pidgin-facebookchat
[03:20] <IdleOne> rachael_: don't know, sorry.
[03:20] <rachael_> ive used wicd before
[03:20] <rachael_> didnt think of that
[03:20] <glitchd> IdleOne, nope
[03:20] <dude_chen> how can i install ubuntu10 use the hdd?
[03:21] <KM0201> rachael_: thats what i would do.. see if it resolves this.
[03:21] <IdleOne> !install | dude_chen
[03:21] <dude_chen> yes
[03:21] <glitchd> IdleOne, http://pastie.org/1399665
[03:21] <KM0201> dude_chen: do you have a specific question relating to installation/
[03:23] <dude_chen> cannot boot computer from usb-hdd
[03:23] <glitchd> IdleOne, any ideas?
[03:23] <IdleOne> glitchd: umm, try purging pidgin-facebookchat and reinstalling
[03:23] <glitchd> idle i know there is a variance of dpkg that i can use
[03:23] <KM0201> dude_chen: are you trying to install TO the USB(so the OS will be portable) or are you trying to install FROM the usb(use the usb as an installer, onto an internal drive)
[03:23] <glitchd> IdleOne, synaptic wont let me
[03:24] <freebird> i just reinstalled ubuntu on this comp and after grub i select my kernal then i get error"  modprobe Warning FATAL:  something about kernal 2.6.35-22 no such directory  " funny thing is it boots up and seems to run ok and i check the location it appears the that the kernal is there
[03:24] <glitchd> IdleOne, im sure what has happened is that when i removed it, it left junk behind
[03:24] <IdleOne> glitchd: sudo apt-get purge pidgin-facebookchat
[03:24] <freebird> is there anyway to fix this
[03:24] <glitchd> idle this happened to me before i jus dont remember how i fixed it
[03:25] <glitchd> IdleOne, that didnt work either
[03:26] <glitchd> IdleOne, just returns errors
[03:26] <IdleOne> glitchd: you could purge pidgin entirely but that will also remove your account info
[03:26] <cr215> yo u guys remember when there were people who spelled things like "1 m 4 hxx0r 4nd 1 w1ii pwn eweeeeeeeeeee
[03:26] <cr215> lol
[03:27] <cr215> i used to laff my ass at them
[03:27] <glitchd> IdleOne, i dont need to do that, i had this problem before and i didnt have to do that to fix it
[03:27] <IdleOne> !ot | cr215
[03:27] <cr215> i was scared that ppl wold be like that in the linux community
[03:27] <IdleOne> glitchd: then I don't know how to fix it, sorry.
[03:27] <cr215> sorry for the off opic
[03:27] <glitchd> IdleOne, well thx anyways
[03:27] <dauoalagio> is anyone here familiar with samba wireless sharing
[03:27] <IdleOne> glitchd: if you figure it out let me know
[03:28] <Diamondcite> dauoalagio: How is that any different from wired sharing?
[03:28] <glitchd> IdleOne, ok
[03:28] <dauoalagio> Diamondcite: not sure, just trying to do it wirelessly
[03:28] <Diamondcite> dauoalagio: Assuming isolation isn't set on the wireless access point, it should work as though it was in a wired network.
[03:29] <pops> KM0201: im googling around for answers.  would a cd burning program that does any file you want work, or does the iso recorder add finishing touches?
[03:29] <KM0201> pops: any program that can burn an image.. but ISO recorder should work just fine.
[03:30] <dauoalagio> Diamondcite: well, wirelessly or wired, i'm trying to copy my 30+ gigabytes of music from my ubuntu machine to my windows machine.  im not sure what the best method is to do it.  I just default'ed to samba
[03:30] <pops> KM0201: I ought to work just fine but i dont
[03:30] <axisys> is there any tool that allow you create custom live cd iso? I need to append console=ttyS0 to the live cd iso so I can boot a system at remote location with live iso image
[03:30] <meekwarrior> can anyone help me with a USHARE problem
[03:30] <KM0201> !shipit | pops
[03:30] <joeoshawa> my 1 year old is crying i go in and my daughter has my fishing kit
[03:30] <KM0201> pops: maybe thats your best option
[03:30] <KM0201> lol
[03:31] <joeoshawa> omfg
[03:31] <BlueFish_> i was able to use devede to create a iso image to burn avi to dvd after the process i was able to right click and select write to disc but i no longer have that???any suggestions?
[03:31] <meekwarrior> Interface wlan0 is down.
[03:31] <meekwarrior> Recheck uShare's configuration and try again !
[03:31] <freebird_> does anyone know how to fix the kernal saying its not found during boot but yet the system still boots up fine
[03:32] <meekwarrior> wlan0 is the defaut wifi connection right?
[03:32] <freebird_> yes meek
[03:32] <kyme> yellow
[03:32] <psycho_oreos> meekwarrior, most of the time yes, but not always
[03:32] <joeoshawa> anyone in durham i have 5 ubuntu 10.10 64 bit  cd's
[03:32] <kyme> guys what is the best video non linear editor for ubuntu ?
[03:33] <meekwarrior> psycho_oreos when i look at connection prop. it says that, anyidea why i get this error in ushare
[03:33] <meekwarrior> Interface wlan0 is down.
[03:33] <meekwarrior> Recheck uShare's configuration and try again !
[03:33] <meekwarrior> i chekced the config, and seems to be correct
[03:33] <glitchd> can someone help me with this? ipastie.org/1399665
[03:33] <psycho_oreos> meekwarrior, are you connected via wifi?
[03:33] <meekwarrior> yes
[03:34] <meekwarrior> does ushare work via wifi?
[03:34] <meekwarrior> ive had it work wired no problem
[03:34] <psycho_oreos> meekwarrior, maybe iwconfig may tell you which wireless interface you are connected to
[03:34] <meekwarrior> but now that is not an option
[03:34] <meekwarrior> yea oreos it is wlan0
[03:34] <glitchd> * can someone help me with this? http://pastie.org/1399657
[03:35] <psycho_oreos> meekwarrior, hmm it might not be supported then, through wireless
[03:35] <meekwarrior> perhaps you already have it glitched?
[03:35] <meekwarrior> it gives me the option and ive read on fourms its possible
[03:35] <dauoalagio> anyone know the best method of transferring ~30 gigabytes of music from a ubuntu machine to a windows machine?
[03:36] <psycho_oreos> meekwarrior, I'm presuming ifconfig would tell you if wlan0 is up or not from the list, or you can probably just grep it
[03:36] <glitchd> anyone know how to fix this? E: /var/cache/apt/archives/pidgin-facebookchat_1.64-1_i386.deb: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/pixmaps/pidgin/protocols/16/facebook.png', which is also in package pidgin-data 1
[03:36] <meekwarrior> gerp?
[03:36] <mandriva> meekwarrior: my dvd rom  and secondary hard-disk is not auto mounted in "computer" folder. I am using ubuntu 10.10 of pinguy os
[03:37] <tacomaster> i have sensitive data needed to be disposed of will the shred command with enough passes make it impossible to recover even by the most determined people?
[03:37] <psycho_oreos> meekwarrior, grep, its a tool to filter down the output results, very handy if you just want to find the needle in a haystack :)
[03:37] <bonjoyee> dauoalagio: ftp should be the fastest...although theres samba as well!
[03:38] <meekwarrior> psycho  http://pastebin.com/Hmh7hECz
[03:38] <joeoshawa> glitchd i have no idea man
[03:38] <joeoshawa> wish i did
[03:38] <dauoalagio> bonjoyee: i wanna stay away from samba, it seems to not handle large files very well.  ftp should work, i cant believe i overlooked that
[03:39] <glitchd> joeoshawa, thx
[03:39] <psycho_oreos> meekwarrior, no not iwconfig, ifconfig, ifconfig will tell you if the interface is either up or down
[03:39] <joeoshawa> no problem i been here for hours waiting for someone who can help with ltsp
[03:39] <joeoshawa> i have a dependancy problem
[03:39] <glitchd> no clue on that one
[03:40] <meekwarrior> http://pastebin.com/TZ1PWC5j
[03:40] <root_> Hi
[03:40] <joeoshawa> i am wondering if i enable the 32 bit libraries will it fix it
[03:40] <psycho_oreos> joeoshawa, have you tried asking in ##linux?
[03:40] <bonjoyee> glitchd: its just an icon that is being overwritten...
[03:41] <joeoshawa> psycho_oreos thanks for the suggestion is there anyone in there there wasn't last time i went in
[03:41] <glitchd> bonjoyee, no, its because i had a facebook chat plugin installed then i removed it but it left traces in the system
[03:41] <glitchd> bonjoyee, trust me its not just the ico file that is the problem
[03:41] <joeoshawa> i will probably get directed back here but worth a try
[03:41] <glitchd> bonjoyee, i need to find the dpkg command to clean up the system
[03:41] <psycho_oreos> joeoshawa, I don't monitor for those sort of stuff, you might want to also consider asking in ltsp support channels
[03:41] <bonjoyee> glitchd: any other error apart from this?
[03:42] <glitchd> bonjoyee, no
[03:42] <tubnub> I'm running an ubuntu install with 1 wired nic to the cable modem, 1 wired nic sharing internet to a wired network, and now I have a wireless.  can I also share the internet to a wireless network?
[03:42] <salim> lisp
[03:43] <bonjoyee> glitchd: if u want to know what files that plugin pack installed..open that using archive manager..and look inside..
[03:43] <psycho_oreos> meekwarrior, hmm weird, I'd say check the version of ushare you have and check to see if there's later versions of ushare
[03:43] <salim> i would like to use lisp
[03:43] <bonjoyee> glitchd: .deb files have a directory structure just like ubuntu inside them!
[03:43] <meekwarrior> this is the most uptodate, 1.1  i used 1.0 and it worked fine wired about 4 months ago
[03:43] <alif> i have problem with my ubuntu. it's version 10.10 . when i try to run airodump-ng program. an d show ...

[03:44] <psycho_oreos> alif, you don't have wlan0 interface, check via iwconfig
[03:44] <wyclif> Best guide to irssi? The irssi site seems a little thin.
[03:44] <bonjoyee> glitchd: forget other things...but look whats inside folders named like usr,bin,lib
