[18:32] <rooibos> i want to remove grub 2 from hda4 without touching the grub 2 from hda. what am i supposed to google, if most articles assume that grub is installed in the correct place?
[18:32] <Pwr> sebsebseb: the tab-completion is not working for me
[18:32] <dcbdbis> Question on transcoding please?
[18:32] <Pwr> sebsebseb: in grub2, any ideas?
[18:32] <sebsebseb> Pwr: no
[18:32] <speps> hi guys have someone managed to run the headtracking plugin from compiz?I've compiled from git and it's visualized in the ccsm but i cannot check for its load. How can i manually load it to debug it?Thanks
[18:33] <Keith-BlindUser> The problem in question is taht my laptop hibernates just ffine, but never resumes, just cold reboots with 0 minutes of uptime. The problem is that 'dev'sda5 is my swap partition, and I cannot figure out how to uppend reume=/dev/sda5 to the kernel through the latest version of grub so that resuming properly works.
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> speps: asked in #compiz ?
[18:33] <sebsebseb> rooibos: it doesn't matter if you have another Grub as well, as long as the correct Grub is being used, when you boot, but also when a new kernel is installed
[18:33] <Keith-BlindUser> What steps should I take to resolve this?
[18:34] <speps> ActionParsnip: #compiz and #compiz-dev there is nobody on since a while
[18:34] <rooibos> sebsebseb: ok, thanks
[18:34] <sebsebseb> rooibos: np
[18:34] <pntav> anyone have an idea of why glxinfo tells me name of display: :0.0 Segmentation fault
[18:34] <Vigo> Kieth-BlindUser: hibernation Ubuntu
[18:34] <augdawg> i have a question. does anyone know how to get update manager to update? it will not update the package information. i am running lucid. any ides?
[18:34] <Vigo> ?
[18:34] <rabbit1> i don see a wine file browser as mentioned here http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/05/18/how-to-install-windows-programs-in-linux-using-wine/
[18:34] <yannf> why the old grub can't boot ubuntu? is it because it uses ext4?
[18:35] <sebsebseb> yannf: yes
[18:35] <sebsebseb> yannf: I think thats it
[18:35] <prince_jammys> rabbit1: see if it's in the menus or type 'winefile' in a terminal
[18:35] <sebsebseb> yannf: you installed old Grub into a later version? its in the repo, but then you got to set up some how
[18:35] <Vigo> Kieth-BlindUser: Could be an ACPI thing or could be a hardware thing, still looking,,,
[18:35] <sebsebseb> yannf: as far as I know
[18:35] <guntbert> augdawg: from CLI type sudo apt-get update
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> rabbit1: if you are installing apps in wine just run:  wine /path/to/setup.exe
[18:35] <Pvpeter> My mouse forward and backwards buttons are reversed.. How can I fix this?
[18:35] <augdawg> does anyone know how to get the update manager to update the package info?
[18:36] <sebsebseb> rabbit1: just click on the .exe and install
[18:36] <Dr_Willis> rooibos:  i think its removeable by very CAREFULL use of the 'dd' command..
[18:36] <sebsebseb> rabbit1: what are you trying to install?
[18:36] <Dr_Willis> rooibos:  but given the dangers of a dd typo.. If the system works. leave it on there
[18:36] <mataks> how to change console keymap?
[18:36] <waldir> hi there; I installed virtualbox but I see no option to enable USBs. is there anything extra I need to do?
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> augdawg: sudo apt-get update
[18:37] <sebsebseb> waldir: yes
[18:37] <sebsebseb> waldir: also the virtualbox-ose in the Ubuntu repo doesn't even have USB support
[18:37] <augdawg> ActionParsnip: hang on.. let me try that
[18:37] <sebsebseb> waldir: you would need the other version from the website/server  and then USB set up
[18:37] <rooibos> new question - if grub is installed and i can get to it via rEFIt, can i uninstall rEFIt? would it just go to grub at startup?
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> waldir: the open source version doesn't have it. If you want access to usb storage then make the /media folder be a folder in your virtualboxes config
[18:37] <waldir> sebsebseb: the other version? you mean paid?
[18:38] <Vigo> Keith=UserBlind: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2875529
[18:38] <sebsebseb> waldir: no neither are paid for
[18:38] <sebsebseb> waldir: which is also why this factoid should be changed really
[18:38] <sebsebseb> a bit
[18:38] <dcbdbis> Looking for a utility to build a transcode command line. Arista doesn't work. And in downloading the 'newer' version, it has a bug in it that locks the audio bitrate to 128. Suggestions, Pointers? Or a good Transcode GUI?
[18:38] <augdawg> ActionParsnip: it says that some failed to download
[18:38] <sebsebseb> !virtualbox | waldir
[18:38] <ActionParsnip> augdawg: then the repo is down or uncontactable
[18:38] <sebsebseb> waldir: the factoid means free as in software freedom, not price
[18:38] <hahhahaha> is shuttleworth wrong..  his command to change the layout to Right hand side doesnt work.. any thoughts on this
[18:39] <Vigo> Kieth-UserBlind: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2875529
[18:39] <waldir> sebsebseb and ActionParsnip thanks, I'll try the non-free then. I really need usb support :(
[18:39] <sebsebseb> !freedom | waldir
[18:39] <hahhahaha> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/mark-shuttleworths-response-to-left-side-button-criticisms.html
[18:39] <sebsebseb> hahhahaha: you eman to left hand side?
[18:39] <guntbert> !ot | hahhahaha
[18:39] <hahhahaha> !controls
[18:39] <sebsebseb> mean
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: you can suggest changes to factoids dude :)
[18:39] <sebsebseb> hahhahaha: oh the name and how you knew !controls
[18:39] <augdawg> ActionParsnip: this happened last time i installed ubuntu, in 9.10. could is be an app i installed?
[18:39] <sebsebseb> hahhahaha: ok hello Mr or Miss/Mrs Troll
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> waldir: as I said, if you want usb storage access then just share the mounting folder, or share it with samba using a bridged network connection
[18:40] <waldir> ActionParsnip: can you point me to a howto or TFM? :)
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> augdawg: not really apt-get is outside the installed apps in essence
[18:40] <sebsebseb> oh the !controls factoid has been updated
[18:41] <augdawg> ActionParsnip: so it should work no matter what, right?
[18:41] <sebsebseb> or I think so anyway
[18:41] <dcbdbis> To move the buttons, in a terminal, 'gconf-editor', Apps->Metacity->General. Change to 'menu:minimize,maximize,close. All will be moved back to the right.
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> waldir: ask in #vbox   its ini the folders version in your virtual boxes config. I dont use virtualisation bit the guys in #vbox will help
[18:41] <sebsebseb> dcbdbis: yes, but I think that person was trolling
[18:41] <Pwr> Hi. Doing updates trashed my wubi installation of ubuntu 10.04. following these instructions (@ http://www.omaregan.com/?p=583  ) result in: "error: unknown filesystem". The mentioned 'kernel autocomplete' (with tab) does not work. What am I doing wrong here?
[18:41] <sebsebseb> Pwr: uhmm
[18:41] <dcbdbis> Roger that.
[18:41] <sebsebseb> Pwr: Wubi is ok for short term Ubuntu useaeage when it works, but not in the long run, proper partitioned installs :)
[18:41] <waldir> ActionParsnip: thanks :)
[18:42] <sebsebseb> dcbdbis: plus they had already left,  by the time you sent your message
[18:42] <augdawg> thanks, ActionParsnip!
[18:42] <Pwr> sebsebseb: I know :) because of a raid setup, which is about to be removed, i was unable to partition properly, i need to access the install in wubi to extract data though
[18:42] <mataks> anyone having problem in lucid during the start up.. all i see is blank screen and then it directly starts gdm.. any fix for this?
[18:42] <sebsebseb> !raid | Pwr
[18:42] <cow_> Im trying to add the dvd to the repo using the synaptic gui, so when i click on Add CD-ROM it says: please insert a disk in the drive when i press ok it says faild to mount the cd-rom (using linux lucid 10.04 dvd)
[18:43] <cow_> why is that:-(?
[18:43] <Pwr> sebsebseb: I made a complete backup from the raid0 disk and restored it to a single drive, so no raid atm
[18:43] <Dr_Willis> mataks:   common issue with the way plymouth works (or dosent work) I see the plymouth animation for like 3 sec then black.. then gdm...
[18:43] <Dr_Willis> mataks:  plymouth really dosent work on any of my nvidia machines..
[18:43] <augdawg> cow: sorry, cow, i am kind of a nebie so i wont be much help.
[18:43] <kazagistar> I know I can install ubuntu on an entirely encrypted partition (requiring a password to boot) using the server install disk... can I do something like that with the desktop install disk?
[18:43] <dcbdbis> No suggestions for a transcode GUI or command line builder?
[18:43] <Dr_Willis> mataks:  but they boot so fast  - i really wouldent see it - IF it worked. :)
[18:43] <Chriz> Can I make a raid without using the boot cd?

[18:44] <dcbdbis> I've got transcode. I'm looking for a GUI or a command line GUI builder,,,,,,,,,,,,
[18:44] <cow_> in 8.04 i din't have this problem:(
[18:45] <Dr_Willis> I always use ffmpeg or mencoder.. never tried transcode
[18:45] <mataks> Dr_Willis, so no fix for this yet? I've read this blog maybe this might help us .. please do check it out http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2010/05/06/ubuntu-10-04-lucid-blank-screen-at-startup-workaround/
[18:45] <mataks> i just need a confirmation.
[18:45] <Dr_Willis> mataks:  i dont wory about plymouth too much.. i would be happy if they removed it in the next release.
[18:46] <dcbdbis> I'll give mencoder a shot. Thank You!
[18:46] <Dr_Willis> mataks:  ive seen work arounds and people try to fix the thing.. and some times they break things worse...
[18:46] <sebsebseb> mataks: you can easilly get a text boot instead
[18:46] <mataks> sebsebseb, how to get text boot? i want that than this blank screen
[18:46] <sebsebseb> mataks: text boot will get rid of the black screen,  I think
[18:47] <sebsebseb> mataks: so yeah you will have text, instead of a graphical boot
[18:47] <aj00200> Is there a VM for ubuntu that will let me run windoze (for virus testing) and will hopefully allow easy backup/restore of the OS (through the VM, not windows)
[18:47] <mataks> sebsebseb, how?
[18:47] <sebsebseb> aj00200: no, but you can run Windows inside Ubuntu
[18:47] <sebsebseb> in a vm
[18:48] <aj00200> Thats what I said...
[18:48] <sebsebseb> aj00200: as for already made vm for  what you want,  I don't think so
[18:48] <inoh> Target filesystem doesn't have /sbin//init. No init found. Try passing init= bootarg. How is this fixed?
[18:48] <aj00200> sebsebseb: a VM that runs ubuntu. Does not have to have built in virus testing stuff...
[18:49] <aj00200> sebsebseb: I mean, runs windows from ubuntu
[18:49] <sebsebseb> mataks: remove plymouth-label, plymouth-theme-ubuntu-{logo,text}, and plymouth-x11; then remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and do sudo update-grub

[18:49] <ejwaxx> aj00200 i just use virtualbox ... you can make a copy of a clean virtual hard disk file and just reload that whenever you need to backup/restore
[18:49] <sebsebseb> aj00200: no, but there are virus scanners,  that will scan for Windows viruses

[18:53] <aj00200> sebsebseb: what do you mean by big?

[18:55] <sebsebseb> rabbit1: That does what?
[18:55] <aj00200> sebsebseb: Ok. I might have used it before... to run ubuntu, but I'm not sure
[18:55] <rabbit1> sebsebseb: without which i won't be able to connect through linux
[18:55] <Daekdroom> KungFuJesus, Depends on how long it takes to somebody to take a look at it
[18:55] <sebsebseb> rabbit1: that probably isn't quite true, unless it s AOL or something stupid like that I guess
[18:55] <pntav> I'm told "name of display: :0.0" "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"."
[18:56] <MoleMann> how do i solve the "checking battery state" error? it wont go away so i cant install LL unr
[18:56] <rabbit1> sebsebseb: its just a authentication client and keeps track of the usage timings
[18:56] <test34> Is a free wifi access point that doesnt require a password never encrypted?
[18:56] <sebsebseb> rabbit1: you probably don't need it
[18:56] <sebsebseb> rabbit1: which ISP?
[18:56] <rabbit1> sebsebseb: yes, its stupid here in India, its Sify
[18:56] <KungFuJesus> Daekdroom: I tried to be as detailed as possible when filing the bug, is this a good report? https://bugs.launchpad.net/digikam/+bug/596327
[18:56] <sebsebseb> pntav: ok
[18:57] <sebsebseb> pntav: ATI graphics card issues are common for Ubuntu,  maybe one in system > preferences > hardware drivers, that works,  may be able to make use of this page
[18:57] <sebsebseb> !ati | pntav
[18:57] <sebsebseb> pntav: and now for some good ATI news
[18:57] <rabbit1> sebsebseb: i get the installation screen, and also i can install, but again, don't know where the exe file is located after installation,
[18:57] <pntav> sebsebseb: yeah I've been following these guides all night
[18:58] <person51090> OK all, trying to install grub 2 from the newest live cd. runing sudo grub-install as per the directions gives me "unable to execute /usr/sbin/grub-install: Input/output error." Thoughts?
[18:58] <sebsebseb> pntav: They have recently released a new driver, and yes it works with Ubuntu as well: http://news.softpedia.com/news/New-ATI-Linux-Video-Driver-Has-OpenGL-4-0-and-RHEL-5-5-Support-144827.shtml

[18:59] <rabbit1> sebsebseb: nothing, its just the same notepad, when i first installed wine
[19:00] <sebsebseb> !wine | rabbit1
[19:00] <Daekdroom> KungFuJesus, and yeah, it's a decent bug report.
[19:00] <sebsebseb> rabbit1: really you need the Internet connection working with the OS that is properly installed to the hard disk, so yeah Ubuntu
[19:00] <sebsebseb> rabbit1: and as long as your Internet Service Provider isn't really stupid, this shoudn't be a problem
[19:00] <sebsebseb> rabbit1: or you should be able to phone them up at least, and they can tell you details to connect or something
[19:01] <drothli_w> how may I fix a broken installation (I can not see a bootloader, but it has been working until now)

[19:01] <gbear14275> can anyone tell me a simple drawing app similar to paint (but maybe a little better)?

[19:02] <sebastian> hey guys, anyone knows how to install a different sound theme on ubuntu lucid?
[19:02] <sebsebseb> sebastian: system > preferences > sound
[19:02] <person51090> Dr_Willis The output is so long...
[19:02] <sebsebseb> sebastian: or maybe not
[19:03] <sebsebseb> sebastian: anyway I think 10.10 will get a new sound theme
[19:03] <sebastian> sebsebseb: i cant install anything from there
[19:03] <ravindu> I have ugly plymouth , I have nvidia..I tried many method to fix it
[19:03] <person51090> Any idea why I can't chroot from a live cd? I get "unable to execut /usr/sbin/chroot: Input/output error"
[19:03] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  the end of the output is what you want to see
[19:03] <drothli_w> minimec: I just found out now, did no kernel update
[19:03] <sebsebseb> ravindu: you can get a nice text boot instead :)
[19:03] <person51090> Dr_Willis busy inodes on changed media or reszed disk sr0
[19:03] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  that sounds like a bad cd
[19:03] <ravindu> like on softpedia nothing worked
[19:03] <sebsebseb> ravindu: and yes there are issues with plytmouth and Nivida propritary driver
[19:03] <minimec> drothli_w: So no problem anymore?
[19:03] <person51090> Dr_Willis nope, double checked + MD5
[19:03] <waldir> ah, by the way, I can't seem to disable the login sound... how do I do that?
[19:03] <sebastian> Anyone got an idea on how to install a sound theme on ubuntu lucid?
[19:03] <drothli_w> minimec: it does not boot anymore, except from ubunutu cd
[19:03] <Daekdroom> waldir, System > Admin > Login Screen
[19:04] <trism> waldir: System/Preferences/Startup Applications, uncheck Gnome login sound
[19:04] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  dosent matter.. Io/error = having hard time reading the cd...
[19:04] <ravindu> I like but my firends meke me embarrasd
[19:04] <trism> waldir: or Daekdroom method for the sound before you log in
[19:04] <drothli_w> minimec: how ever the cd is missing a repair functionality
[19:04] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  and ive seen cases where md5's work.. but the cd's dont..  could be dirt in the drive. or somthing else flakey.. or a finger print
[19:04] <Daekdroom> Yeah. There is one for when the login screen pops up, which is where I said, and one for when GNOME starts, which is at Startup
[19:04] <person51090> Dr_Willis is that really true? Do I make a new cd? That's really ridiculous if that's the problem
[19:04] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  one of the many reasons i use Flash drives these days
[19:05] <waldir> trism: Oh, that one if for the sound *before* logging in?! I was wondering why it didn't work :/
[19:05] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  its failing to read a file from the cd, with an Iinput/output error.. so that points to some issue with the disk, or drive, or cables..
[19:05] <sebastian> Anyone got an idea on how to install a sound theme on ubuntu lucid?
[19:05] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  or some weird quirk with the drivers..
[19:05] <Dr_Willis> sebastian:  nope. Not sure its even doable :)
[19:05] <sebsebseb> !repeate | sebastian
[19:05] <sebsebseb> !patience | sebastian
[19:05] <ravindu> Why canonical release products having problem without fixing
[19:05] <Daekdroom> sebsebseb, !repeat, perhaps
[19:05] <minimec> drothli_w: Can you press (and hold) the left <shift> button when the bios bootscreen ends? Then choose recovery mode or try a older kernel version.
[19:06] <sebsebseb> ravindu: thats not so much a Plymouth issue
[19:06] <Daekdroom> ravindu, Everybody does that, if you think about it.
[19:06] <sebsebseb> ravindu: its Nividas fault this time, for having a driver that does not support Plymouth
[19:06] <waldir> trism: the login sound is considered a startup application? there's an executable just for that?! :O or is it just a poorly (IMO) placed option?
[19:06] <Dr_Willis> ravindu:  plymouth is very much a work in progress also.. and its an issue with the drivers from nvidia that ubuntu has no controll over.
[19:06] <minimec> drothli_w: <shift> key ;)
[19:06] <Dr_Willis> personally i think they need a simple way to just disable plymouth..
[19:06] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: here you go
[19:06] <Daekdroom> waldir, All three at the same time, apparently.
[19:07] <person51090> Dr_Willis I'm so done with this garbage. Can I mount my ntfs partitions from the live CD?
[19:07] <waldir> Daekdroom: lol
[19:07] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: remove plymouth-label, plymouth-theme-ubuntu-{logo,text}, and plymouth-x11; then remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and do sudo update-grub
[19:07] <sebsebseb> ravindu: this gives you text boot instead
[19:07] <sebsebseb> ravindu: remove plymouth-label, plymouth-theme-ubuntu-{logo,text}, and plymouth-x11; then remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and do sudo update-grub
[19:07] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  yes - ntfs is accessable from the luive cd
[19:07] <miniuser> whats "plymouth"?
[19:07] <Daekdroom> sebsebseb, is removing splash from /etc/default/grub enough/
[19:07] <sebsebseb> miniuser: The graphical boot up that  10.04 uses
[19:07] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  unless of course teh cd is having so many issues those binaries are broken also.
[19:07] <Daekdroom> !plymouth
[19:07] <trism> waldir: yes, it uses canberra-gtk-play to play the sound from the sound theme, I have no idea why
[19:07] <ravindu> thankx
[19:07] <Dr_Willis> Daekdroom:  no it is not. ive tried. :)
[19:07] <sebsebseb> Daekdroom: remove plymouth-label, plymouth-theme-ubuntu-{logo,text}, and plymouth-x11; then remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and do sudo update-grub
[19:08] <drothli_w> minimec doesn't work either
[19:08] <miniuser> sebsebseb: lol, i see it for about 20 seconds
[19:08] <sebsebseb> Daekdroom: and you get a text boot instead
[19:08] <Dr_Willis> sebsebseb:  you 'sure' that works?
[19:08] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: yes it works
[19:08] <ravindu> anybody tried YlmfOs It is great
[19:08] <person51090> Dr_Willis could I just use "sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt2" or somehting?
[19:08] <Dr_Willis> sebsebseb:  well theres a dozen forum threads you need to post that on then. :)
[19:08] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  yes.
[19:08] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: rww told me originally, and I have even tested in a vm,  and yeah something I will do for the other computer, when I bother
[19:09] <person51090> Dr_Willis I try that, no such folder appears. No erros, but i get no /mnt2
[19:09] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: screw forums
[19:09] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: slow like email
[19:09] <minimec> drothli_w: Is there any message, or do you see any harddisk activity?
[19:09] <IdleOne> sebsebseb: watch the language buddy ")
[19:09] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: takes a while to type posts as well,  IRC and  IM :)
[19:09] <drothli_w> minimec: the is a _ left top that is all
[19:09] <sebsebseb> IdleOne: oh that counts as well?
[19:09] <IdleOne> sebsebseb: yup
[19:10] <minimec> drothli_w: and the harddisk is not active?
[19:10] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  mounting fundamentals.. You MUST make the duir you are mounting to FIRST...
[19:10] <IdleOne> sebsebseb: unless you are talking about screws
[19:10] <sebsebseb> !language | sebsebseb
[19:10] <drothli_w> minimec: not that I hear
[19:10] <sebsebseb> IdleOne: got a ltitle carried away or something,  since I don't like forums much
[19:10] <waldir> trism: I'm sure there must be a bug or idea submitted somewhere to fix this. I should vote on that
[19:11] <person51090> Dr_Willis duir?
[19:11] <IdleOne> sebsebseb: no worries
[19:11] <zus> is gnome-do ppa not working in lucid? i get an error when u releoad..
[19:11] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  if mounting to /poo  you have tio have /poo there..
[19:11] <minimec> drothli_w: don't you have any green HD LED on that computer?
[19:11] <Dr_Willis> !mount | person51090
[19:11] <drothli_w> minimec: no, I would checked the led otherwise
[19:12] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: IRC and IM nice and fast :)  unlike forums and email
[19:12] <xiratax> hello, got a question, i have a workgroup at home here, and i make a vpn connection to work from time to time, now i want to set up samba so i can browse in my workgroup at home and when i connect to vpn that i can access the network drives, is there like a wiki or an howto? thx
[19:13] <FOREvERz> hello everyone)
[19:13] <person51090> Dr_Willis I am doing all of this just fine. nothing is in /mnt2
[19:13] <FOREvERz> has someone help me?)
[19:13] <sebsebseb> !ask | FOREvERz
[19:14] <FOREvERz> i received ubuntu 10.4, but i have installed 9.04. can i upgrade it to 10.4?
[19:14] <sebsebseb> FOREvERz: recived 10.04?
[19:14] <FOREvERz> by request
[19:14] <sebsebseb> FOREvERz: a CD?
[19:14] <sebsebseb> offical CD?
[19:14] <FOREvERz> yes
[19:14] <drothli_w> How can I repair an ubuntu installation, there seems to be no rescue mode on the iso 10.4 i386
[19:14] <cow_> what is /media/apt ?:O
[19:14] <minimec> drothli_w: So... I guess that your master boot is corrupted, as you cannot choose recovery mode with the lefft<shift> key. You should be able to restore or create new entries for the master boot... When you boot the live CD, do you see the harddisk in the filemanager?
[19:15] <webroasters> hi, i upgraded my server to ubuntu 10.4 last night
[19:15] <FOREvERz> cow_:  you asking to me?
[19:15] <sebsebseb> FOREvERz: you can upgrade to 10.04 from 9.04,  but you would have to go through 9.10 first.  Also 9.04 is still supported untill the end of October, and it really is better than 10.04 in certain ways :)
[19:15] <webroasters> and when i checked out my client's website...
[19:15] <drothli_w> minimec yes I see those
[19:15] <sebsebseb> webroasters: Server edition?
[19:15] <webroasters> his images are looking like this ../../../var/www/clients/libertynation.com/public/system/application/views/system/files/media/images/benjaminfranklinpress3.jpg
[19:15] <webroasters> @sebsebseb: yeah
[19:15] <tar-> sebsebseb: which ways?
[19:15] <sebsebseb> webroasters: ok well then #ubuntu-server
[19:15] <webroasters> ah ok
[19:15] <webroasters> thanks
[19:16] <cow_> im asking in general
[19:16] <xiratax> anyone?
[19:16] <sebsebseb> tar-: less features that a lot of expereinced users, don't like :)
[19:16] <sebsebseb> tar-: by a long way
[19:16] <FOREvERz> sebsebseb: i am newbie in ubuntu or whole linux, so it will be better if I stay on 9.04?)
[19:16] <sebsebseb> FOREvERz: well you can try 10.04 from the Live CD
[19:17] <sebsebseb> FOREvERz: ,but if I was still using 9.04, I would stay on that for now, I guess
[19:17] <tonnny> 10.04 more pretty
[19:17] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  then you are doing womthing wrong. or the disk is empty. or missing some option in your command line
[19:17] <sebsebseb> tonnny: no
[19:17] <sebsebseb> tonnny: well yes a bit I suppouse
[19:17] <FOREvERz> tonnny: that's good:)
[19:17] <the_g0at> or read the buntu handbook that should give u a head start FOREvERz
[19:17] <AdminX> tonny: Yes, I am feeling 10.04 alot!
[19:18] <Dr_Willis> person51090:  sudo mkdir /media/TheDrive    then  sudo mount /dev/sda1  /media/TheDrive -t ntfs-3g                    is normally how i do it
[19:18] <FOREvERz> the_g0at: where i can get ubuntu handbook?
[19:18] <sebsebseb> !manual | FOREvERz
[19:18] <AdminX> tonnny: Yes, I am feeling 10.04 alot!
[19:18] <sebsebseb> FOREvERz: most of that also applys to 9.04
[19:18] <tonnny> ;D
[19:18] <the_g0at> FOREvERz, link is on the main page i do believe
[19:18] <FOREvERz> sebsebseb: thank you :)
[19:18] <DrkStr> Hello All
[19:18] <sebsebseb> with 10.04 even more bad things have been done to Gnome :(  that aren't upstream, but right most of you probably don't even know what I mean
[19:19] <lana> Assallmua'laikum
[19:19] <xiratax> anyone? how do i access networkdrives on my server03 at work from my linux distro at home with vpn connection??
[19:19] <lakeoftea> how do i set up a x client / server thing between my 2nd desktop (ubuntu server 9.04) and primary computer (ubuntu desktop 10.04)? is vnc the only way?
[19:19] <DrkStr> anyone know of a way to make firefox transparent
[19:20] <Dr_Willis> lakeoftea:  freenx may work better. but isd a little harder to get going.. vnc is rather easy to get going.
[19:20] <sebsebseb> tar-: theres your answer ^
[19:20] <FOREvERz> but if i want to upgrade, can i upgrade 9.10 to 10.04 or better if i will install it again?
[19:20] <minimec> drothli_w: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[19:20] <lana> am need help
[19:20] <lana> please am need modification my gdm login. how to ? am used ubuntu 10.04 LTS
[19:20] <lana> any body can help me ?
[19:20] <Dr_Willis> lakeoftea:  OR if you can see both pc's/monitors you may want to use syngery,
[19:20] <AdminX> DrkStr: You mean like you can do with Opera, if so not sure that you can.
[19:20] <tonnny> i use x11vnc server so windows control ubunt need a real vnc, ultra i dont know
[19:20] <drothli_w> minimec: I will read it, even though I have not installed any windows on that computer
[19:20] <tic^> !vpn | xiratax
[19:20] <Dr_Willis> lakeoftea:  OR you could just 'ssh -x remotebox' and run whatever apps you want and have them appear on teh local screen
[19:21] <lana> any body can help me to install gmd on ubuntu 10.04
[19:21] <Gnea> sebsebseb: that's impossible. gnome was just a terrible implementation from the get-go, it's impossible to make it any worse. ;)
[19:21] <sebsebseb> FOREvERz: if you tried 10.04 from the CD boot it up, and like what you see,  you can upgrade to it yeah, but nothing wrong with 9.04 (except for a little while I don't like)  whilst its still supported
[19:21] <Dr_Willis> lana:  GDM is installed by default on ubuntu.
[19:21] <sebsebseb> Gnea: What do you use?
[19:21] <Dr_Willis> lana:  state what you are wanting to do exactly
[19:21] <DrkStr> Well i have not tried opera but i would like for the window itself to be transparent like in my xterm or XChat
[19:21] <Gnea> sebsebseb: E17. I keep gnome around just in case, but I wouldn't bet any private information on it.
[19:22] <IdleOne> lana: what is gmd?
[19:22] <sebsebseb> Gnea: woudn't bet any proviate information on it?
[19:22] <Dr_Willis> lakeoftea:   clarfy what you mean...  'ssh -x remotebox' and then run 'gedit' (for example) and it appears locally. but is running on the  other machine
[19:22] <FOREvERz> sebsebseb: then i can choose which ubuntu i can boot in GRUB?
[19:22] <marcoantonio> Escriba el texto aqufffd....chica bacana
[19:22] <sebsebseb> FOREvERz: no
[19:22] <xiratax> tic^, i've set vpn up, thats not the prob, the prob is that i can't access the drives
[19:22] <tar-> sebsebseb: i noticed, then again i'm not an experienced user - so i guess i'm fine with 10.04.. and whatever i want to install that is missing is possible on 10.04 just the same as it was on 9.04 right? :)
[19:22] <Gnea> sebsebseb: yeah, I don't trust it
[19:22] <lakeoftea> ahhh okay lemme see
[19:22] <IdleOne> !es | marcoantonio
[19:22] <maxwell> hello people
[19:22] <sebsebseb> FOREvERz: on if you were to dual both both versions, which would be silly to do, and not so easy
[19:22] <AdminX> DrkStr: Opera can do that, check their website or Google it.
[19:22] <marcoantonio> habla
[19:22] <lana> IdleOne, >http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Wooden?content=90685
[19:22] <minimec> drothli_w: That's what I guess... If I am wrong, you should be able to access recovery mode with the left<shift> key...
[19:23] <DrkStr> Right on AdminX
[19:23] <sebsebseb> FOREvERz: I say sily to do since  9.04 will go end of life at the end of October, no more security updates, but also since  9.04 uses the old Grub, and 10.04 uses the new Grub 2 by default
[19:23] <DrkStr> thanks bro
[19:23] <AdminX> DrkStr: I saw some nice screenshots of it.
[19:23] <maxwell> i need a help with something, anybody can talk with me?
[19:23] <lana> am need install for my ubuntu 10.04 am need install > http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Wooden?content=90685
[19:23] <lana> how i do
[19:23] <sebsebseb> FOREvERz: the old version of Grub is actsaully better than Grub 2 for most people really :)
[19:23] <Dr_Willis> lakeoftea:  you dont need X running on the remote if the output is going to be local.. Try it and see
[19:23] <Dr_Willis> !ask | maxwell
[19:23] <DrkStr> i will check it out
[19:23] <isw> Is there a way to add 2 extra desktops to the caps in Compiz?
[19:23] <lvh`> Hey. The PlayOnLinux version shipped with Lucid doesn't work. Upstream knows & fixed & released. Anyone know if new packages for the working version (3.7.6) are available somewhere?
[19:23] <tic^> xiratax: firewall blocking you at your work place?
[19:23] <Guest22212> How does one go about adding a subdirectory to their search path?
[19:24] <Dr_Willis> isw:  i dont think so
[19:24] <Jordan_U> sebsebseb: FOREvERz: Not everyone would agree with that statement...
[19:24] <isw> Dr_Willis: k thanks that must be why I can't find it hah.
[19:24] <xiratax> tic^, nope i can access all from windows vpn's :=)
[19:24] <sebsebseb> FOREvERz: if you upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 or 10.04, you would still have the old Grub :)   and then you could install Grub2 yourself, but not much point  in that.  Grub  as in the boot loader, that you boot Ubuntu from, if you don't understand
[19:24] <Dr_Willis> Guest22212:  if /home/user/bin exists it will get auto added..  or 'export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/new/place'
[19:24] <sebsebseb> Jordan_U: true
[19:24] <FOREvERz> sebsebseb: okay, thaks :) i'll try 10.04, and may be i will use it without 9.04 :) pretty linux is something unbelievable  :)
[19:24] <IdleOne> lana: download the theme. then go to System > Appearances > Themes and click the install button, navigate to where you saved the file and select it
[19:25] <sebsebseb> FOREvERz: there are also other distributions/distros and yes Linux really is something :)
[19:25] <FOREvERz> sebsebseb: i mean Live CD)
[19:25] <DavbranTech> Dr_Willis thanks, sorry forgot to identify when logging in
[19:25] <AAA> lvh`  it is on their dl page
[19:26] <lana> IdleOne, am not find a Syste > Appearances > Themes

[19:27] <lana> on ubuntu 10.04
[19:29] <xiratax> tic^, ah found the problem,thx for helping, i forgot that at work were in another ip range, added that and off i go ;) sry to bother ;à
[19:29] <pfifo> dose anyone else read all the chanop's text in william shatners voice?
[19:29] <Dr_Willis> lana:  the old gdm themes wont work with the newer GDM in 10.04
[19:30] <courtni> i need help running an emulater that i down loaded but it wont work
[19:30] <sirninja> The icons on my desktop aren't loading and nautilus won't open whenever I select a file. I didn't change anything and this just randomly happened
[19:31] <sirninja> I just don't understand how this can happen on a distro that claims to be "easy to use"
[19:31] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: if you press aLT+F2 and type: nautilus   and press enter, do they load/
[19:31] <courtni> helooo
[19:31] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: Ubuntu comes with no SLA and no warranty, so its perfectly feasible to get issues
[19:32] <sirninja> ActionParsnip: Nope. :(
[19:32] <bp0> http://picpaste.com/volumebar.png the volume slider is messed up in New Wave theme, looked like regular slider before
[19:32] <bp0> how to fix it?
[19:32] <Dr_Willis> courtni:  be a bit more specific and verbose in your problems
[19:32] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: i suggest you read the EULA too
[19:32] <ThaLuser> courtni, which emulator?
[19:33] <courtni> alright go to http://www.libsdl.org/ under donloads go to sdl 1.2 and  click the first one for linux
[19:33] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1504154
[19:33] <magicianlord> i intsalled ubuntu 10.04 on an acer aspire 250, but it will not boot. its stuck at the blinking cursor. i dont know if its due to the gma950 drivers or something else. can you help?
[19:33] <sirninja> ActionParsnip: the fact is that this doesn't happen on other modern operating systems. I've used ubuntu for 4 years now so I know what I'm doing, this just shouldn't happen. Period
[19:33] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: it can and does
[19:34]  * Dr_Willis has been using computers for years.. and cant seem to figure out 'boxee's interface... :)
[19:34] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: http://ask-leo.com/my_taskbar_is_missing_and_i_have_no_start_button_what_do_i_do.html   is an example of windows doing it
[19:34] <marcuy> I don't like the way that ALT+Tab switch windows in ubuntu 10.04, anybody knows how to change it?
[19:34] <pfifo> courtni, libsdl isnot an emulator, or even a program for that matter
[19:34] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: it can happen in any OS
[19:34] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: if you want more examples I am happy to make you look foolish and give more example
[19:35] <Sangeeth> Could anyone please tell me, where i could start with my opensource coding on ubuntu?.. From basic level project...
[19:35] <sirninja> ActionParsnip: Look. I love linux and ubuntu. It just really frustrates me that these things are still issues
[19:35] <IdleOne> ActionParsnip: sirninja let's focus on resolving issues
[19:35] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: agreed but issues are not isolated to only ubuntu
[19:35] <pfifo> sirninja, try running a file system check and also check you have free disk space
[19:35] <telescope> could anyone please tell me how to make a custom live cd with all the packages you have but NOT the personal data?
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> Sangeeth: i'd either start with minimal iso install or remaster the ubuntu ISO. If you want to start at an even lower level you can use gentoo
[19:36] <tic^> sirninja: windows had issues to, the only real differnece is you pay to fix winblows, you don't pay for fixes in linux
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: basically launch a terminal and kill all the gnome-panel processes then rerun it, should be ok
[19:37] <Dr_Willis> Sangeeth:  clarify what you mean also... 'start with open source codeing' could be taken a lot of different ways
[19:37] <lana> how i modifikasi my login theme on ubuntu 10.04
[19:37] <lana> ?
[19:37] <sirninja> ActionParsnip: When I kill the panel, it takes FOREVER to come back.. I wonder if that is related?
[19:38] <Sangeeth> Dr_Willis : I wanna make a kernel level contribution... I'm a rookie... But, have a lot of passion for kernel mod and dev.... Some guidance please...
[19:38] <telescope> anyone?
[19:39] <Dr_Willis> Sangeeth:  you have ANY actual programing skills?
[19:39] <Sangeeth> telescope : Ya...
[19:39] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: try another tab and run: ps -ef | grep panel
[19:39] <Sangeeth> Ya, sure...
[19:39] <pfifo> telescope, i beleive ActionParsnip meant to address this to you: <ActionParsnip> Sangeeth: i'd either start with minimal iso install or remaster the ubuntu ISO. If you want to start at an even lower level you can use gentoo
[19:39] <SlidingHorn> telescope, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=936582
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: you can try: kill -9 PID      the PID of the process is the left most number
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> pfifo: cheers
[19:40] <Sangeeth> Dr_Willis: Sure... I am appreciated for my prog. skills in c++...
[19:40] <pfifo> good day action
[19:40] <sirninja> ActionParsnip: Ehh. this is annoying. I have my home on a separate partition, do you think a reinstall would fix it? It would probably be quicker
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: -9 kills it with no questions asked. kill on its own trys to do it more gracefully
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: your call dude
[19:42] <magicianlord> does anyone konw how to fix ubuntu not booting and it's stuck at the blinking cursor? is it a grub problem is it an intel problem?
[19:42] <Sangeeth> Dr_Willis : Could you help me please?
[19:42] <ActionParsnip> !grub2 | magicianlord
[19:42] <greezmunkey> Sangeeth: You were given several very good suggestions last night regarding a path to get where you apparantly want to be. Here is something else: http://www.slideshare.net/macoafi/ubuntu-dev-proc
[19:43] <magicianlord> i cant figure thi sout
[19:43] <magicianlord> im gonna have to reformat i think
[19:43] <sirninja> ActionParsnip: The weirdest thing just happened. I opened a new tab in the terminal and I was typing and it froze. I wonder if my hard drive is dying or something. That would explain the unexplained weirdness
[19:43] <p1l0t> Is there a way to find the mac address of a wireless router without logging into it?
[19:43] <bastidrazor> sirninja: possible RAM issues too?
[19:44] <greezmunkey> p1l0t: on the wireless side, you mean?
[19:44] <pfifo> sirninja, the program 'badblocks' can be run to determine if your drive is failing
[19:44] <Sangeeth> greezmunkey : But, i'm really new to this and can't classify which is hard and easy project... I need someone to work with... Like a team...
[19:44] <NitzchONot> sirninja, maybe overheat ?
[19:44] <p1l0t> greezmunkey yes
[19:44] <drothli_w> minimec: thanks it worked
[19:45] <sirninja> NitzchONot: I don't think it's too hot. It's a laptop and it doesn't feel hot
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: reboot holding shift and select memtest
[19:45] <minimec> drothli_w: no problem. Happy it worked for you. Question is, how the boot secot got corrupted... ;) I have no clue...
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: you can also download the ultimatebootcd and test your drive using manufacturers testing tools
[19:45] <sirninja> ActionParsnip: Do you think it's more likely a RAM issue or a drive issue?
[19:45] <bastidrazor> p1l0t: sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: test both, its free
[19:45] <bastidrazor> p1l0t: wlan0 being your wireless device on your box
[19:45] <greezmunkey> p1l0t: the best you would get would be the wireless "MAC" which can be seen with: iwlist {wireless interface #} scanning
[19:46] <drothli_w> minimec: I do have clue there, I used the installation for debootstrapping into a cf card, I might missed a chroot at the wrong place, or overwrote the bootsector
[19:46] <greezmunkey> bastidrazor: heh! good morning!
[19:46] <p1l0t> thanks
[19:46] <minimec> drothli_w: ;) I see now.
[19:47] <bastidrazor> greezmunkey: afternoon :)
[19:47]  * cow_ slaps ubuntu 10.04
[19:47] <sirninja> ActionParsnip: Any guess on how long badblocks will take to scan a 500gb drive?
[19:47] <ManDay> How can I configure parameter for a WIFI stick such as power saving mode, transmission mode etc?
[19:47] <pfifo> sirninja, overnight is your best bet, but you might get (un)lucky and it will immeadatly identify lots of bad blocks
[19:47] <greezmunkey> Sangeeth: the next best suggestion I could give you would be to seek out a local Linux Users Group, or LUG - and start going to meetings. You will find like minded ppl there.
[19:48] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: depends on spindle speed and seek time really
[19:48] <drothli_w> minimec I knew allways it was my fault or most likely mine, even so I was very carefully while debootstrapping, I just found no solution on how to fix it (did not think that windows help could help me too)
[19:48] <Sangeeth> greezmunkey : Thanks!..
[19:48] <ferran> hi to all
[19:48] <p1l0t> bastidrazor: you are WIN
[19:48] <bastidrazor> ManDay: look into using iwlist.. in terminal type: man iwlist   :this will give you the proper syntax to use
[19:48] <bastidrazor> p1l0t: glad to help, best of luck.
[19:49] <ManDay> bastidrazor, I've read that iwlist can do power saving - but does it also handle all the other driver specific parameters?
[19:49] <ManDay> for instance those which I can conveinetly set in windows in the singel properties window?
[19:49] <JonathanEllis> Can anyone tell me where to find the irc channel for the html editor called screem?
[19:49] <minimec> drothli_w: It's not exactly 'windows help'. A corrupted boot sector often happens when trying to install a dual boot setup, that's the only reason.
[19:50] <bastidrazor> ManDay: no idea what windows offers, the manpage will tell you what it is able to do.
[19:50] <paul111> hi
[19:50] <ctklap> hi all
[19:50] <aj00200> JonathanEllis: are you sure screen is an html editor? I've seen a different tool called screen
[19:50] <aj00200> ctklap: hi
[19:50] <greezmunkey> ManDay: look into iwconfig
[19:50] <prince_jammys> aj00200: screeM
[19:50] <Sangeeth> greezmunkey : I find a lot of contacts logged in in the room, #ubuntu-kernel, but none in conversation... Why?..
[19:50] <JonathanEllis> aj00200: screem with an m at the end not an n
 hi to all

 anyone is able to hep me?
[19:50] <greezmunkey> Sangeeth: idk
[19:51] <greezmunkey> Sangeeth: maybe they're busy coding!
[19:51] <aj00200> JonathanEllis: oh, ok. Its kind of hard to tell on my TVs resolution
[19:51] <ctklap> I was wondering if anyone has had any success installing drivers for the SoundBlaster XFi XtremeMusic on Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit?

[19:55] <Blueskaj> ctklap, lsmod | grep snd , find the soundcard name but most likely alsamixer is muted or ctrls are off
[19:56] <minimec> lana: Basic software configruration is done during install (software manager ...) Personal prefernces may be done running the software or sometimes via a config file in your /home directory.
[19:56] <ctklap> I have a Soundblaster XFI XtremeMusic Blueskaj

[19:58] <pedrocr> to install a headless server with RAID/LVM should I use the server or alternate image?
[19:58] <Jordan_U> magicianlord: There's probably no reason to reformat (at least not yet).
[19:58] <sirninja> I tried rebooting, but it didn't even start up, and then I tried again and now everything works again. That's weird
[19:58] <lana> tic^, the step please
[19:58] <minimec> lana: sudo apt-get install nikto ...

[19:58] <Bekmand> Got a problem with a newly installed desktop. Its 10.4 and it freezes at the boot screen. What can i do?
[19:58] <Jordan_U> magicianlord: Do you get a menu if you hold shift during boot?
[19:58] <tic^> !apt-get | lana
[19:58] <lana> minimec, am have done do it, but am need put nikto sortcut
[19:59] <lana> minimec, am have done do it, but am need put nikto sortcut on my main menu
[19:59] <bastid_raZor> pedrocr: alternate image
[19:59] <magicianlord> Jordan_U: i did get the grub menu and selected to boot into recovery mode, but then it hangs at a line called "DUMMY"
[19:59] <magicianlord> i am stuck
[20:00] <ctklap> alsamixer is not a command

[20:00] <minimec> lana: path not oath
[20:00] <pedrocr> bastid_raZor, what is the server image missing?
[20:00] <Jordan_U> magicianlord: Is this after a fresh install? Did it ever boot?
[20:00] <paul111> ctklap, As far as I know, ALSA does not support the Sound Blaster X-Fi cards AT ALL
[20:01] <ctklap> gah
[20:01] <ctklap> my sound card worked fine on 9.10
[20:01] <ctklap> :(
[20:01] <Blueskaj> ctklap, then you need to install alsa-base alsa-utils
[20:01] <ctklap> thanks
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> dont buy soundblasters, they arent worth the bother
[20:02] <ctklap> ActionParsnip the Soundblaster came with my Dell
[20:02] <ActionParsnip> unlucky
[20:02] <tymerkaev> hello
[20:02] <Blueskaj> ActionParsnip, my old SB cards worked fine
[20:02] <clammy>  does anyone know where the logs for chkrootkit are kept?
[20:02] <ctklap> alsa-base alsa-utils are already the latest hmmm
[20:02] <lvh> Hey. Anyone know what I need to install so I can mount BR/DVD ISOs as well as CD ISOs in Lucid?
[20:02] <minimec> lana: that is a console software... so gnome-terminal -e /usr/bin/nikto ...
[20:02] <ActionParsnip> Blueskaj: seen too many folks in here having all sorts of issues with em
[20:03] <lvh> Archive manager says it's not a valid ISO9660 file, mount stays empty, even though the image burns fine
[20:03] <lvh> (same behavior on multiple known-good images)
[20:03] <ActionParsnip> lvh: sudo mount -o loop /path/to/file.iso /media/cdrom0
[20:03] <ctklap> my problem seems to be with the new version of Ubuntu
[20:03] <bastid_raZor> pedrocr: from what i was looking at it recommended alternate image for desktop raid.. the server image should work for RAID
[20:03] <ctklap> maybe I can try Linux Mint or Kubuntu
[20:03] <Blueskaj> ctklap, alsamixer is a command , it brings up the alsa controls in the terminal
[20:04] <ctklap> when I type alsamixer it says mixer is not a valid command
[20:04] <clammy> ActionParsnip: do you know where the log is kept for chkrootkit? it doesnt say anything in its man page
[20:04] <edju> OK to insall from the debian repos in ubuntu?
[20:04] <Pirate_Hunter> how do I get wget to download to another directory, its becoming annoying moving to the specifics directories?
[20:04] <Not_moral> My Speakers don't work anymore.  Dmesg says: [38033.393446] HDA Intel 0000:01:05.2: PCI INT B disabled [38033.522854] HDA Intel 0000:00:14.2: PCI INT A disabled
[20:04] <magicianlord> Jordan_U: it is a fresh install
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> clammy: not used it, sorry
[20:05] <lvh> ActionParsnip: Why can't the gvfs thing just do that?
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> Pirate_Hunter: i thing its the -o option
[20:05] <rooibos> "If you happen to be one of several people that somehow end up with two different icons in rEFIt that boot GRUB for Ubuntu, then this will show you how to remove one of them." By "one of them", which one do they mean? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=811240
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> lvh: it's an iso so it wont, you can get nautilus scripts to do it but the command line is childishly simple
[20:05] <Blueskaj> alsamixer is one word , ctklap  not alsa mixer
[20:06] <ctklap> I know
[20:06] <ctklap> I didnt put a space
[20:06] <ctklap> its wierd
[20:06] <lvh> ActionParsnip: I'm not afraid of the command line, 99% of the time I'm running just stumpwm, no DE: that's not the problem
[20:06] <ctklap> I heard that command from my friend but it doesnt seem to work for some odd reason
[20:06] <Blueskaj> lspci | grep audio , ctklap
[20:07] <Random832> rooibos: from their description, the two icons are functionally identical, so how does it matter which one is removed

[20:07] <KungFuJesus> gah, why does launchpad immediately close bugs for fixes that are released upstream?
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> lvh: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/mount-isos-easely-in-gnome-nautilus.html
[20:07] <lvh> ActionParsnip: I'm just very surprised that in 2010 something that knows it's supposed to loop mount (default action == mount, after all), when the basic tool (mount) knows what to do, and we still can't mount a DVD image?
[20:07] <istvan> hey, i just got a new backup drive. any suggestions on which backsup software to use for hourly incrimental backups?
[20:07] <Daekdroom> KungFuJesus, what's wrong with such thing?
[20:07] <KungFuJesus> this bug is not fixed downstream at all, they need to update these packages
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> lvh: i believe you can mount dvd images, just needs some tweaks to the mount afaik
[20:07] <KungFuJesus> this an specifically an Ubuntu bug when it gets fixed upstream, Ubuntu needs to update the packages to reflect the upstream changes
[20:08] <lvh> ActionParsnip: yeah, I mean in the default install
[20:08] <Pirate_Hunter> ActionParsnip, nope that doesn't work will keep reading the man pages
[20:08] <Blueskaj> ctklap, which ubuntu version are you using ? lsb_release -a
[20:08] <ddaygold> window
[20:08] <Bekmand> Crap, i'm really in trouble. some that can help me. At the beginning of boot my screen freezes. and i cant enter grub menu. Some that can help?
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> lvh: log it in http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com
[20:08] <Daekdroom> KungFuJesus, I think you can complain about that over #launchpad
[20:08] <bluejeans> how do i find out where 'bus 001 device 6' is pointed to in /dev/ ??
[20:08] <KungFuJesus> anyway, I added an affected package which it does affect, but I'm not changing the status of it from New or it will close this bug

[20:10] <lvh> Whoops.
[20:10] <magicianlord> Jordan_U: is there a way to disable the b43 drivers and ssb through grub command line BEFORE it boots? i think this will solve the issue possibly
[20:10] <Pirate_Hunter> ActionParsnip, I could, I could but that is just taking shortcuts if you know what I mean and that is assuming I know the exact way the file is named when its downloaded
[20:10] <magicianlord> then i can install the proper driver that works
[20:10] <istvan> for backups should I use rsync, flyback, or timevault? (or other?)
[20:11] <Bekmand> minimec: Hmm... the last thing i changed was the xorg.conf file
[20:11] <Bekmand> minimec: Something for my g15 keyboard
[20:11] <Blueskaj> speaker-test -c2 -Ddefault -t wav , ctklap
[20:11] <minimec> Bekmand: So you are still using a xorg conf file. What version of ubuntu are you on?
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> Pirate_Hunter: i hear ya dude
[20:11] <Bekmand> 10.4
[20:12] <ctklap> nothing
[20:12] <minimec> Bekmand: Why do you think you need a xorg.conf? My Logitech keyboards don't need one and the g15 screen is controlled by the

[20:13] <Pirate_Hunter> ActionParsnip, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=157548 apparently there is no actual way but someone suggest a pushd method errrh
[20:13] <Bekmand> minimec: yea did that. i added a SubSection to the xorg file
[20:13] <ActionParsnip> Pirate_Hunter: thats from the medibuntu repo how to
[20:13] <magicianlord> i just need the terminal commands so tha i can get to the system file and delete b43
[20:14] <cannonfodder> hey you guys...is anyone else here having problems with desktop viewer?   everytime i control someones computer, i dont see anything on their screen move
[20:14] <red2kic> Is there an equivalent command of invoking "ssh -X $USER@$HOST" -- but only after you ssh in without the parameter.
[20:14] <greezmunkey> magicianlord: can you simply blacklist them? Or, does that not work?
[20:14] <Pirate_Hunter> ActionParsnip, oh I see no wonder the command aint recognised
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> magicianlord: mount the partition then use: sudo chromm /path/to/mount from what I remember, the how to will tell you more
[20:15] <magicianlord> greezmunkey: yes, i cna blacklist them in blacklist.conf, but i need to get into the file first, please
[20:15] <magicianlord> ok ActionParsnip
[20:15] <Bekmand> minimec: But is there something that i can do to change it back? or do i have to reinstall it
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> red2kic: no, the forwarding is established at connection afaik
[20:15] <minimec> Bekmand: I would do the following. Boot in recovery mode (left<shift>after BIOS screen), load the recovery mode and choose a root console. login and do 'sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg-old.conf, the logout and reboot. Let's see how ubuntu handles the keyboard.
[20:15] <brandon---> anyone know why it says ipod-time-sync when i plug in my ipod touch as the option

[20:16] <magicianlord> that's the only thing i researchd
[20:16] <red2kic> ActionParsnip: Well, I can exit out then ssh -X again. Sometimes I wonder if there are a command that'll establish forwarding. Thanks though. :)

[20:18] <vladsharp> i used the alternative install cd to set up a new encrypted lvm system

[20:19] <Khandi> cold anyone whisper me to help me resolve the above issue i have with my ound in warcraft using ubuntu?>
[20:19] <Zwei> Hi all. I'm not sure what happened. This morning I closed my laptop without shutting it down properly. When I opened it, it would not start up (just a black screen), so I rebooted it. Since then my internet did not work, my friend told me to type "ifconfig eth0 up", then "dhclient eth0", now my wired connection works. But my wireless still does not work! I've looked around on the internet but didn't find a solution.
[20:19] <vladsharp> i can cryptsetup open the disk fine and running vgchange -a y finds the right things
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> Khandi: i'd ask in #winehq
[20:19] <vladsharp> what are the steps to resume the init process?
[20:19] <Zwei> I have a Dell Studio.
[20:19] <Khandi> kk thanks
[20:20] <vladsharp> i've tried both pivot_root and run-init and neither of them seem to allow me to continue the boot process
[20:20] <Pirate_Hunter> oCean_, beautiful just beautiful, thanks
[20:20] <oCean_> Pirate_Hunter: aha. Nice
[20:20] <minimec> Zwei: Your symptom tells me, that hibernating was not working correctly. Wireless is probably simply disabled in the network-manager. Happend to me too ;)
[20:21] <magicianlord> ActionParsnip: that command didnt work. i mounted the system, but now i need write privilages to it
[20:21] <Zwei> How do I enable it?
[20:21] <Zwei> Sorry, i'm quite new to ubuntu
[20:21] <minimec> Zwei: right click >preferences on the network applet on the panel.
[20:21] <greezmunkey> vladsharp: I may be off the mark here, but can you get to dmesg to see if there are any clues there?
[20:22] <gidna> Hi
[20:22] <Zwei> Yeah.... there is no network applet :S
[20:22] <gidna> I receive this error make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32-22-generic'

[20:22] <gidna> can you help me?
[20:22] <Zwei> I've been on System->Administration->Network tools and can't figure out what to do
[20:22] <vladsharp> greezmunkey: well dmesg is of no help
[20:22] <minimec> Zwei: So.. System <administration network or so in the panel menu.
[20:22] <vladsharp> but i'm getting the same error when dropping out as when https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udev/+bug/483890

[20:25] <brandon---> ActionParsnip you just told me that....
[20:26] <brandon---> idleone how come this bot can spout random !commands at anyone who types a trigger word
[20:26] <brandon---> seems like something that should be banned
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> brandon---: if you set it to "disk mode" (if it has one) it may be mountable as a usb partition
[20:26] <paul111> Zwei, iwconfig
[20:26] <minimec> Zwei: open a console and type iwconfig. Tell us if you see the wireless card.
[20:26] <brandon---> thats not hte problem action, once again you did not read the entire question
[20:26] <IdleOne> brandon---: the bot is set to accept the triggers from all users.
[20:26] <brandon---> the two normal options when it opens in nautilus are open fspot and open rhythmbox
[20:26] <brandon---> but both are replaced by ipod-time-sync
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> brandon---: ubottu saves use time as users ask a LOTof the same question so it saves having to write the same stuff over and over
[20:27] <brandon---> well if it was something that could just be googled im sure most of us wouldnt be asking it in here
[20:27] <sirninja> ActionParsnip: I rebooted and everything worked now, but it's running hot now, do you think overheating is what caused it?
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> brandon---: try gtkpod maybe, unfortunately you have a lacking product from one of the most closed minded companies out there
[20:27] <Zwei> paul111, minimec, I get this: http://codepad.org/GHoKxbu5
[20:27] <brandon---> ActionParsnip, it works 100% perfectly on my computer, however my dads it does not
[20:27] <brandon---> something got messed up
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> brandon---: some versions of itunes do work with some versions of wine though so you may get some joy there
[20:27] <gidna> http://nopaste.info/8f72da87f8.html can you help me?
[20:27] <brandon---> Dude
[20:27] <brandon---> are you even listening to what im saying
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> sirninja: no idea dude
[20:28] <Zwei> Did the system somehow uninstall my wireless card?
[20:28] <coz_> !nvidia
[20:28] <brandon---> seriously, stop talking to me
[20:28] <brandon---> im not running wine
[20:28] <brandon---> im not using itunes
[20:28] <FloodBot3> brandon---: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:28] <IdleOne> brandon---: if we had to start managing who can and can't use triggers we would also need to figure out a "work schedule" for  those authorized users
[20:28] <sirninja> ActionParsnip: how can you see the cpu temperature from the terminal?
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> brandon---: i'm saying its an option to get the data to/from the devcie
[20:28] <brandon---> you can sync an ipod with rhythmbox just fine, and i can get data to and from it just fine
[20:28] <brandon---> if you actually read the whole question instead of skimming through for keywords
[20:28] <paul111> Zwei, ifconfig eth1 up
[20:28] <magicianlord> I got in, but it sitll doesnt boot
[20:28] <minimec> Zwei: Besides the bad link quality, your card seems to be recognized by the system.
[20:28] <guntbert> !attitude | brandon---
[20:29] <cool3865> hey im getting the blank screen after doing a fresh install, Live CD works fine without a problem.  also cant get into GRUB anymore, it just bypasses it
[20:29] <brandon---> you know what
[20:29] <magicianlord> i cant use 10.04 on this system
[20:29] <brandon---> fuck you guntbert
[20:29] <brandon---> fuck you all
[20:29] <howlymowly> hi guys...
[20:29] <FloodBot3> brandon---: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:29] <the_g0at> wow
[20:29] <magicianlord> lol
[20:29] <brandon---> you are all 0 help besides idleone
[20:29] <guntbert> !ops | brandon---
[20:29] <magicianlord> haha
[20:29] <Zwei> minimec: What do you mean by bad link quality? Sorry if I did something wrong....
[20:29] <greezmunkey> brandon---: has had too much coffee this morning, me thinks...
[20:29] <the_g0at> seriously ...
[20:29] <howlymowly> hi guys.. i got a REAL big problem...  zattoo seems not to work anymore on my computer, because I have the wrong version of flash player installed (I am on ubuntu 10.04 64 bit)  what can i do now :)?
[20:29] <the_g0at> too many cups of ubuntu
[20:29] <greezmunkey> heh
[20:30] <howlymowly> because it seems ubuntu 64 bit doesn not support that version of flash player
[20:30] <Zwei> paul111: I did that
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> too much java ;)
[20:30] <Zwei> paul111: Now what?
[20:30] <greezmunkey> double heh
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> howlymowly: theres the 64bit flash ppa
[20:30]  * Jordan_U was about to actually help brandon---
[20:30] <miniuser> antway to have the system "auto-tune-compile" for given harddware it's running on when idle?
[20:30] <cool3865> forgot to say im using Ubuntu 10.04
[20:30] <paul111> Zwei, run the command iwlist eth1 scan
[20:31] <howlymowly> ActionParsnip: can you give me a hint to it :)?
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> !flash
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> howlymowly: you'll need to remove the package you currently have
[20:31] <paul111> Zwei, any wireless around.
[20:31] <minimec> Zwei: Well. Doesn't mean anything. Your card is working but deactivated by the network-manager or by hardware switch (button on your laptop or key combination). That's all.
[20:32] <greezmunkey> laterz...
[20:32] <howlymowly> jesus... I am on a real hurry...  because denmark is playing on the worldcup rght now :D I need that flash player ^^
[20:32] <howlymowly> ActionParsnip: you mean the "flashplayer-plugin"-package?
[20:32] <cool3865> is anyone able to help me?
[20:32] <howlymowly> ähh i mean.. the "flashplugin-installer" package
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> howlymowly: yes, remove that, there isa 64bit one on that ppa specified there
[20:33] <Zwei> paul111: I still do not see any wireless icon, I got this output: http://codepad.org/dxsY2pQh
[20:33] <Zwei> I guess the only way for me to find out is by taking off the rj45 cable
[20:33] <Zwei> Which means I may disconnect...
[20:33] <Jordan_U> howlymowly: If you give a link to the site that you want to work with (if it's available in the U.S.) Then I can try to help you with instructions that I can confirm work.
[20:34] <howlymowly> Jordan_U: www.zattoo.com
[20:34] <Zwei> minimec: Okay, thanks. Strange since I didn't deactivate it... ever..... hmmmm
[20:34] <nerdy_kid> i am looking to move a winxp installation to a bigger hard drive, is this possible and if so what are some good tools to do this under linux? thanks!
[20:35] <minimec> Zwei: No, ubuntu did, when trying to hibernate... ;)
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> howlymowly: make sure you dont have gnash or swf-dec stinking up the place
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> nerdy_kid: partimage
[20:35] <Zwei> minimec: Ah, thanks for the info. I'll make sure to never hibernate again.
[20:35] <howlymowly> ActionParsnip: You are talking riddles to me ^^
[20:36] <guntbert> Zwei: my hibernate just disabled my networking completely -- so you are not alone it seems :-)
[20:36] <nerdy_kid> ActionParsnip thanks :) i have tried dd but it just simply does not work
[20:36] <cool3865> ugh i thought going to Ubuntu was suppose to be painless?
[20:36] <ActionParsnip> howlymowly: use http://pastebin.com    and give the output of: dpkg -l | grep flash;dpkg -l | grep gnash;  dpkg -l | grep swf
[20:36] <Zwei> minimec, guntbert: thanks, I'll google to see how to enable it...
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> howlymowly: and i will give you a big command to sort you out
[20:37] <paul111> Zwei : now try changing interface (network-manager) & good to go...
[20:37] <minimec> Zwei: guntbert: Hmmm... If you do sudo dpkg-reconigure network-manager?
[20:37] <guntbert> Zwei: a complete reboot worked wonders - although I don't recommend that generally
[20:37] <Jordan_U> howlymowly: I was afraid of that "You seem to be accessing the Zattoo website from a country we do not yet serve."
[20:37] <minimec> Zwei: guntbert: That would set the network manager to it's defaults.
[20:38] <shadow4295> Hey can someone help me install flash player on chromium?
[20:38] <Jordan_U> howlymowly: But it appears they have a download link for their own "player" for linux.
[20:38] <steffan> !flash | shadow4295
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> shadow4295: symlink the .so into /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugin
[20:38] <shadow4295> thanks
[20:38] <Zwei> guntbert: complete reboot? I've restarted numerous times, it didn't help...
[20:38] <nerdy_kid> ActionParsnip um partimage ntfs support is experimental?  that wont do...
[20:38] <howlymowly> Jordan_U: yeah..  I installed that player.. but it relies on flashplayer, too :)
[20:38] <banker247> how do you quiver items
[20:39] <guntbert> minimec: in my case only the applet wouldn't show and when it showed after the reboot I saw that networking was disabled altogether
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> nerdy_kid: its free to try, if it goes bad you can always format
[20:39] <howlymowly> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/FvhL7eq2
[20:39] <minimec> guntbert: OK. Then you should be able to right click on that applet and activate wireless. I was able to do so..
[20:39] <Zwei> paul111: What do you mean by changing interface? (very sorry for these question, I'm still learning linux-stuff as quick as I can...)
[20:40] <guntbert> Zwei: I only came into that late so I don't know what happened before, I only wanted to give an account what happened here a few minutes ago
[20:40] <nerdy_kid> ActionParsnip any other options? :-/
[20:40] <cool3865> anyone figure out how to bypass the blank screen that wont let Ubuntu boot??
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> howlymowly: sudo dpkg -P flashplugin-installer    you already have flash installed, and its the 64bit version
[20:40] <guntbert> minimec: of course I was, when it showed up :-)
[20:40] <guntbert> minimec: I have no troubles now, but thx
[20:40] <Jordan_U> howlymowly: Do you get an error when installing the .deb file, or when running the application?
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> nerdy_kid: could try: dd_rescue   it will copy from source to dest and not stop on issues
[20:40] <minimec> guntbert: And then you had it back, I guess?
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> nerdy_kid: you could ask in ##windows. See if they know anything
[20:41] <howlymowly> Jordan_U: I installed it with -force--architecture...  it works..  the application also works..  just when starting tv i get the error
[20:41] <paul111> Zwei, simply enable eth1 (interface) just by a click
[20:41] <garylieberman> cannot appear to get gnome panel running. Help would be appreciated.
[20:41] <minimec> Zwei: Do the same thing. Shutdown the system, unplug wired network. Boot up and activate wireless via right click on panel applet. That should work.
[20:42] <guntbert> minimec: yes, and in the meantime I try to find the config of nm-applet to be able to mend that next time
[20:42] <Zwei> Okay, doing it now
[20:42] <bastid_raZor> garylieberman: type gnome-panel in terminal.. do you get errors?
[20:42] <Jordan_U> cool3865: Have you tried holding shift during boot (to get the grub menu)?
[20:42] <minimec> guntbert: What GPU do you use?
[20:43] <garylieberman> I get errors as soon as I r un a terminal
[20:43] <cool3865> Jordan_U: yea it worked before but now it just says GRUB Loading and then bypasses it, trying a re-install right now to see if it can get fixed
[20:43] <bijou> ubuntu pentest login please?
[20:43] <dkulchenko> Hi all! What does Prevu do with all of the build-dependencies it installs? Does it keep them after the build process?

[20:45] <bijou> ubuntu pentest login please?
[20:45] <bazhang> bijou, what do you mean by that?
[20:45] <jpds> bijou: Pardon?
[20:45] <bijou> i can`t login
[20:45] <bazhang> bijou, are you using bt4?
[20:45] <guntbert> minimec: I only tried it this time because I wanted to reboot anyway, I usually suspend to ram which works fine
[20:45] <bijou> no
[20:46] <bastid_raZor> garylieberman: include some details or error messages.. people may respond then.
[20:46] <bijou> ubuntu pentest
[20:46] <bazhang> there is no Ubuntu pentest bijou
[20:46] <celeritas> bijou, try using single user mode
[20:46] <banker247> bastid_raZor whatcha mena?
[20:46] <paul111> ! pentest | bijou
[20:46] <minimec> guntbert: it normally does, that's true.
[20:46] <gnuyen> paul111,  yes
[20:46] <bijou> it is in a Virtualbox
[20:46] <bastid_raZor> banker247: i thinkyou're in the wrong channel.
[20:46] <howlymowly> Jordan_U: hmm.  the ActionParsnip left...  i just realies.. when installing the lfashplugin64-installer, it downloads flash version <IP_ADDRESS> ...  instead of 10.1
[20:46] <bazhang> banker247, what does your question have to do with Ubuntu?
[20:46] <banker247> oh lol
[20:46] <banker247> it must of switched channals on accident lol
[20:47] <banker247> sorry
[20:47] <banker247> :)
[20:47] <celeritas> !pentest
[20:47] <bijou> thx
[20:47] <Jordan_U> howlymowly: How long untill the game that you want to watch starts?
[20:47] <cool3865> Jordan_U: ok re-install is done
[20:47] <howlymowly> Jordan_U: its already running ! :D
[20:47] <howlymowly> i listen to it on radio right now...
[20:47] <Jordan_U> howlymowly: Do you have a 32 bit Ubuntu LiveCD?
[20:48] <paul111> gnuyen, http://www.data-alliance.net/-strse-73/802.11g-USB-802.11b-high-dsh-power/Detail.bok
[20:48] <howlymowly> Jordan_U: maybe that's an idea... i could try that that out...
[20:48] <Zwei> minimec: When I rebooted, everything got reset to when it didn't work this morning.... Even my wired connection did not work, I had to type "ifconfig eth0 up" then "dhclient eth0" again
[20:48] <Jordan_U> howlymowly: I could walk you through creating a full 32 bit chroot for a more permanent solution, but since time is of the essence :)
[20:48] <Zwei> Wireless still does not work.
[20:49] <howlymowly> but the live cd does not come with the newest flash plug-in per defautl, does it, Jordan_U:)?
[20:49] <cool3865> Jordan_U: should i go ahead and reboot to see if it can get into GRUB??
[20:49] <Jordan_U> cool3865: Yes.
[20:49] <Zwei> I suspect everything I did to eth1 that paul111 told me also got reversed...
[20:49] <celeritas> howlymowly, you should be able to update the flash during the livecd session
[20:50] <Xerror500> hi all
[20:50] <howlymowly> kk.. celeritas... ok guys  "hopefully"  c u later :)
[20:50] <Zwei> And there is no wireless icon/applet on my task bar
[20:50] <paul111> Zwei, don't worry about that it will happen all the time | iwconfig
[20:50] <cool3865> Jordan_U: ok im in GRUB
[20:50] <celeritas> Zwei, what network manager are you using?
[20:50] <augdawg> zwei: you have to right click the top panel and add the notification applet, i think
[20:51] <cool3865> Jordan_U just to let you know, this is the 64-bit version, using a single Nvidia card with my monitor plug in to comp via DVI
[20:51] <paul111> !wicd
[20:52] <minimec> Zwei: ok. do the same thing. Boot up without the wired cable. Then after booting open a console and type nm-applet <enter> Maybe the manager is not loaded...
[20:52] <Jordan_U> cool3865: Ok, first try the first boot option. If that doesn't work then try "recovery mode".
[20:52] <cool3865> Jordan_U: anything special i do in the first boot option??
[20:53] <celeritas> Zwei, anything on the logs? /var/log/wicd
[20:53] <Jordan_U> cool3865: No, I want you to check with everything at its default first.
[20:53] <cool3865> Jordan_U: ok
[20:53] <cool3865> running now
[20:54] <lvh> ActionParsnip: hey, remember when you told me to report the bug to brainstorm?
[20:54] <lvh> oh, no more actionparsnip.
[20:54] <lvh> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/292963
[20:54] <tarvid> how do I get rid of compiz?
[20:54] <cool3865> Jordan_U: ok i got blank screen with a quick drum sound, power light on monitor is blinking
[20:55] <steffan> tarvid: the opposite way to how you installed it
[20:55] <bastid_raZor> tarvid: metacity --replace
[20:56] <Guest81892> hi
[20:56] <Jordan_U> cool3865: Ok, you may be able to solve this by installing the proprietary drivers then. Press (don't hold) the power button to see if that lets you shut down. If it doesn't then use sysrq magic to reboot (don't just pull the plug)
[20:57] <tulimaq_> cool3865: try to boot with vga=791 kernel parameter
[20:57] <cool3865> Jordan_U: pressing the power button (on holding) doesnt do anything
[20:57] <cool3865> Jordan: it should say non holding not on holding
[20:58] <cool3865> Jordan_U: never mind it did shut down, just took some time
[20:59] <BurN`> need help, i get this error when trying to reinstall ubuntu with wubi: http://pastebin.com/T3Dx3eJF
[20:59] <celeritas> cool3865, tulimaq_, you could also try vga=ask to try different modes
[21:00] <Veixes> I Just installed the latest version of Ubuntu alone with the latest updates.  My problem is with the screen display. It doesn't feel the whole screen as it should and is aligned to the right leaving a black vertical box on the left
[21:00] <Veixes> rectangle that is
[21:00] <Veixes> Ive tried $ xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1024x768
[21:01] <Veixes> but it doesn't work
[21:01] <zleap> hello
[21:01] <Jordan_U> cool3865: When you boot again try adding "modeset=1" to the kernel parameters (press 'e' to edit the menu entry, and ctrl+x to execute it)
[21:01] <celeritas> Veixes, are you using an lcd display or a laptop?
[21:01] <paul111> BurN`, how many times did you try to install???
[21:01] <Jordan_U> cool3865: Sorry, make that "modeset=0"
[21:01] <bsmith093> how do i look up the creation date of a really old file
[21:01] <vladsharp> it seems my /conf/conf.d/cryptroot file is missing
[21:01] <bsmith093> nautilus only shows acessed and modified
[21:01] <kermit> which package manager lets you sort by popularity?
[21:01] <cool3865> Jordan_U: on that modeset is it adding to the end of the command??
[21:01] <Veixes> this is an old PC that I'm using to enter the world of linux
[21:01] <vladsharp> in the initramfs
[21:02] <Veixes> it is not an LCD
[21:02] <Veixes> tube monitor
[21:02] <BurN`> paul111, actually i deleted the install, then i had to do a windows system restore and it came back. so now i am trying to uninstall it again. so once.
[21:02] <Veixes> HP pavilion mx70
[21:02] <generau> somebody speak polish ?
[21:02] <Flannel> !pl | generau
[21:02] <generau> si senior
[21:02] <Cpt_Zyph> wll it seems teh new version of ubuntu does not like my laptops video drivers..
[21:02] <nfero> hi all
[21:02] <Jordan_U> cool3865: Yes, to the end of the "linux" command, after "quiet splash"
[21:02] <Cpt_Zyph> i know in fedora i could startup to promt and run some nvidia commands is there somethign similar to do for ubuntu?
[21:03] <celeritas> Veixes, then the its the alignment of the scan area on the monitor, not your linux installation. try using the keys on the monitor to center the image correctly. some monitors also come with auto alignment
[21:03] <paul111> BurN`, now as it is un-installed also delete (if remains) for the windows system registry also. and then reboot
[21:03] <willwork4foo> Hi all - has anyone seen the Ubuntu Software Centre (on Ubuntu Netbook Remix) suddenly not show ANYTHING in the installed packages list? Synaptic still works fine and shows all my packages
[21:03] <celeritas> Cpt_Zyph, you can kill the xserver....
[21:04] <Veixes> celeritas: ok I will give that a try.
[21:04] <Faissal> hi
[21:04] <willwork4foo> I'm running fully patched 10.04 lucid
[21:04] <Cpt_Zyph> celeritas ctrl backspace or something ?
[21:04] <Cpt_Zyph> celeritas and after that then what do i do to get the proper nvidia drivers installed
[21:04] <celeritas> Cpt_Zyph, Ctrl+Alt+Bksp
[21:04] <Cpt_Zyph> fedora had this exact same problem so
[21:04] <magicianlord> ther is a problem with ubuntu not waking up the hard disk, and so it doesnt boot
[21:04] <magicianlord> it stays on the cursor
[21:05] <tarvid> metacity much kinder, thanks
[21:05] <magicianlord> thank, you western digital blu series
[21:05] <Cpt_Zyph> ctrl alt backspace is not kill'n the gui
[21:05] <uLinux> How can I remove residual config using terminal?
[21:05] <Jordan_U> magicianlord: How long did you wait? Resume from disk can take a *long* time.
[21:05] <Cpt_Zyph> do i need to try to log in first.. i dunno if i can but i can try .. can't see much of anything
[21:05] <prince_jammys> !dontzap | Cpt_Zyph
[21:05] <willwork4foo> ah - I fixed it!
[21:05] <willwork4foo> :()
[21:05] <celeritas> Cpt_Zyph, if you are trying to install the nvidia drivers, ubuntu comes with a driver gui that will guide you through the installation of the proprietary drivers
[21:05] <prince_jammys> Cpt_Zyph: or simply ''sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart''
[21:05] <Cpt_Zyph> ctrl alt backspace is not doing anything
[21:06] <prince_jammys> Cpt_Zyph: right, it doesn't do anything any more.
[21:06] <magicianlord> Jordan_U: it's not resume from disk. it's standard boot. the hard disk goes to sleep automatically and ubuntu is not waking it up
[21:06] <Cpt_Zyph> well i can't tyhpe anything either
[21:06] <Cpt_Zyph> once the gnome loader trys to load up teh nvidia driver is all messed up
[21:06] <Cpt_Zyph> nothing is aligned for me to read anything
[21:06] <Jordan_U> magicianlord: How did you determine that?
[21:06] <mascool> trying to install 10.04 64bit, getting a blank screen (no signal) after selecting the language, any ideas ?
[21:06] <tarvid> How can I set a static mask to <IP_ADDRESS>?
[21:06] <Cpt_Zyph> type anything
[21:06] <celeritas> prince_jammyz, do the tty terminals work though?
[21:06] <paul111> BurN`, still there!!!
[21:07] <TwYsTeD`> hey ubuntu Jesus loves you  ,   John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
[21:07] <TwYsTeD`>    Romans 10:9  because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
[21:07] <TwYsTeD`>   Romans 10:10 For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.
[21:07] <Cpt_Zyph> i hvae had this problem on this same machine with an older fedora install so i just did a no gui install / boot and then did the yum updates and the nviida repository fix and it was good to go
[21:07] <prince_jammys> celeritas: wrong person
[21:07] <BurN`> paul111, yes i am. i'm searching my registry for 'ubuntu'
[21:07] <Cpt_Zyph> i dont how ever know what i'm doing here with ubuntu
[21:07] <IdleOne> !ot | TwYsTeD`
[21:07] <bastid_raZor> Cpt_Zyph: alt sysrq k will restart X  .. you can also get to a TTY and kill X then install nvidia drivers
[21:07] <celeritas> prince_jammyz, not really. i was asking you...
[21:07] <Cpt_Zyph> how i can't read teh tty screen
[21:07] <Cpt_Zyph> its so far out of alignment i can't see the input line
[21:07] <Faissal> u damn niggers
[21:08] <prince_jammys> celeritas: do the ttys work for Cpt_Zyph? beats me.
[21:08] <paul111> BurN`, not ubuntu | wubi is your installer. (look for wubi)
[21:08] <mascool> trying to install 10.04 64bit, getting a blank screen (no signal) after selecting the language, any ideas ?
[21:08] <Dopple> could someone give me a quick difference between the netbook edition and the desktop edition of ubuntu?
[21:08] <Jordan_U> !ops | Faissal
[21:08] <bastid_raZor> Cpt_Zyph:  ctrl alt F1   ctrl alt F8 or F7 is your X session when you restart it
[21:08] <celeritas> prince_jammys, but they work on ubuntu right? haven't on ubuntu in a while
[21:08] <tarvid> If I set it to <IP_ADDRESS> it gets changed to <IP_ADDRESS>
[21:08] <prince_jammys> celeritas: yes, they do
[21:08] <Veixes> celeritas: that looks better. When I did the auto alignment it centered the image but image on the screen seem to pulse really face from time to time. Is there a way to perhaps get some generic drivers or any other work around?
[21:08] <Cpt_Zyph> i got that i'm in teh tty2 screen now.. but what i dont think is being understood is
[21:08] <prince_jammys> celeritas: would truly suck if they didn't.
[21:08] <BurN`> paul111, whoops. ok
[21:08] <Cpt_Zyph> i can't read anything i can't see anything
[21:09] <mascool> after 10 years of dealing with constant bullshit from linux machines, no wonder I find OSX a pleasure to work with
[21:09] <mascool> ubuntu fail
[21:09] <Cpt_Zyph> its all garbge and like 15 copies of teh screen on top of one another
[21:09] <Veixes> maybe this monitor is too old for this lol
[21:09] <celeritas> Veixes, the pulse may be due to the refresh rate of your card.
[21:09] <paul111> BurN`, now restart and install it again; this time it will work... ;)
[21:09] <BurN`> paul111, ok. i will come back to tell you. thanks
[21:09] <Cpt_Zyph> but ctrl alt Del for reboot makes it look fine cuz i'm guess'n its unloading the nvidia driver
[21:09] <TwYsTeD> Romans 10:13  all who call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved
[21:09] <celeritas> Veixes, what video card do you have?
[21:10] <bazhang> TwYsTeD, stop that
[21:10] <Dopple> anyone that could tell me he difference between the netbook and desktop versions?
[21:10] <mlmg317-himts> Hello.  I need some help with preventing this annoying malware from continuing to be placed in my Firefox cache: "PUA.HTML.Infected.Webpage-2".  I have the NoScripts add-on running - and I'm still getting hit with it.  How do I prevent and stop this?
[21:10] <Veixes> celeritas:  I don't exaclty know what model or something but I do know it is an intel embedded video ship on the motherboard
[21:11] <Cpt_Zyph> so i'm guess'n i reboot to the install disk and get to the command line some how .. to prevent x session from loading or i do it in grub or something.. so i can then connect and edit it i dunno what to do here
[21:11] <mythu> Hi anyone here got powernap working on their Ubuntu server ? =)
[21:11] <Veixes> on the display option I only get a 75hz option. I guess thats all it can handle
[21:11] <cool3865> Jordan_U: setting modeset=0 didnt work at all, same thing is happening
[21:11] <Cpt_Zyph> cant i cahnge my run lvls in grub boot loader?
[21:11] <Jordan_U> Cpt_Zyph: Hold shift during boot and choose "recovery mode"
[21:12] <celeritas> Veixes, sounds like you monitor can't support that refresh rate then. usually crt runs at 60
[21:12] <Jordan_U> cool3865: Did you have any problems with the liveCD?
[21:12] <cool3865> Jordan_U: thats the funny thing, LiveCD works like a charm
[21:12] <bijou> i can`t boot ubuntupentest from Virtualbox
[21:13] <Veixes> celeritas: any commendation or would it be best to just find a better monitor ?

[21:16] <Cpt_Zyph> also who ever said this download was a live cd is not correct there is no boot option other then to install or boot to recovery
[21:16] <LinuxGuyMarshall> leonardo: System > Preferences > Screen Resolution I beleive

[21:20] <rehan> Bazhang but i don,t understand
[21:21] <howlymowly> Jordan_U: any idea, how a router could jsut redirect you to another part of hthe webpage???
[21:21] <Veixes> celeritas: I did the sudo stuff you told me on a terminal
[21:21] <LinuxGuyMarshall> leonardo, give me a moment
[21:21] <leonardo> in linux mint i did the same in it works
[21:21] <mujin> e ^
[21:21] <celeritas> k
[21:21] <celeritas> and did you find your refresh rate?
[21:21] <tulimaq_> Zwei: check system, preferences, sound (hardware tab)

[21:22] <bazhang> mujin, in #ubuntu-cn
[21:22] <Veixes> celeritas: do you want me to enter "Ctrl+W and enter HorizSync" in this new file?
[21:22] <Zwei> tulimaq_: oh dear, there's nothing listed in the hardware tab...
[21:22] <celeritas> Veixes, it shouldn't be a new file
[21:22] <howlymowly> Jordan_U: that could be...
[21:22] <Zwei> tulimaq_: how do I fix this?
[21:22] <Cpt_Zyph> well for now were do i change my init lvl at?
[21:22] <LinuxGuyMarshall> sdwrage, uhm, not sure. Run a google search for it
[21:22] <tulimaq_> Zwei: looks like driver not loaded ?

[21:23] <the_g0at> now thats funny
[21:23] <Jordan_U> howlymowly: Maybe your router doesn't like vuvuzelas?
[21:23] <Veixes> celeritas: did I do something wrong?
[21:23] <sdwrage> LinuxGuyMarshall, I may know why... I checked the startup applications... I think I set the command as "sudo guake"
[21:23] <Zwei> Seriously, I'll never hibernate ever again....
[21:23] <paul111> Zwei, still looking for GUI network-manager??
[21:23] <LinuxGuyMarshall> sdwrage, that would be it

[21:23] <Zwei> tulimaq_: sorry, I'm new to linux, how do I install it?
[21:23] <leonardo> yes that how i fix it
[21:23] <Zwei> paul111: no, my wireless works now :)

[21:23] <Zwei> paul111: but I have no sound....
[21:23] <leonardo> im right now in xubuntu
[21:24] <tulimaq_> Zwei: did u have sound before trying to get wireless working again ?
[21:24] <paul111> Zwei, lspci -v (paste the output)
[21:24] <LinuxGuyMarshall> leonardo, ubuntu and xubuntu are going to have that problem solved the same way. Just follow the ubuntu guide for it
[21:24] <celeritas> Veixes, right. that should take you to the section that defines your monitor
[21:24] <pottsi> can one help my with wireless problems?
[21:24] <Zwei> tulimaq_: I'm not too sure, I didn't pay attention to the sound...
[21:24] <celeritas> change the rate to 60 for both horizontal and vertical to 60
[21:25] <f1assistance1> I'm runing xubuntu (new install) and my taskbar seems to have vanished (it was there for a couple of restarts)...I can still right click anywhere on the desktop and get to the menu but wondering how to get it back (did an update do this)?
[21:25] <Zwei> paul111: http://codepad.org/EUKsYs9r
[21:25] <leonardo> i did it but it dont work
[21:25] <Veixes> celeritas:  click Ctrl + W and it took me to Search. Then I searched for HorizSync
[21:25] <celeritas> f1assistance1, #xfce
[21:26] <Veixes> celeritas: it turned back no results
[21:26] <celeritas> right...
[21:26] <f1assistance1> celeritas: tanks
[21:26] <tulimaq_> Zwei: try restarting few times, maybe it helps
[21:26] <leonardo> i paste sudo gedit x11 xorg conf
[21:26] <celeritas> Veixes, pastebin your xorg.conf
[21:26] <rehan> pottsi yes
[21:26] <Zwei> tulimaq_: restarting a /few/ times?
[21:26] <leonardo> and it say it dont exist

[21:29] <leonardo> ok
[21:29] <Veixes> celeritas:  thats the thing there is nothing. On the same terminal windows it only says, in one line: GNU nano 2.2.2  File: /etc/X11/xorg.config  Modified" After that there is nothing. At the bottom of the terminal window I have options like,  Get help, WriteOut, Read File, Cut Text etc... Prev
[21:29] <wessel> hello, my ubuntu does not want to power off
[21:29] <wessel> I have to use sudu poweroff to make the pc shut down
[21:29] <wessel> what is causing this?
[21:30] <LinuxGuyMarshall> wessel, did you try clicking the shutdown button and not using the command line
[21:30] <wessel> yes, that is what I meant. The pc is not shutting down when I click the shutdown button.
[21:30] <wessel> It just logs out.
[21:30] <LinuxGuyMarshall> wessel, and the proper command is sudo shutdown -h now
[21:31] <wessel> When I hit alt + ctrl + del, some options are missing.
[21:31] <LinuxGuyMarshall> wessel, can you explain further? Screenshot maybe?
[21:31] <Zwei> does anyone know how do I install the sound drivers on a dell studio? - it seems like everyone got messed up when ubuntu tried to hibernate

[21:31] <wessel> Like hibernate and sleep are missing, and shut down and restart are in gray.

I noticed that everytime I access the /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state file it's refreshed correctly. Is there anywhere I can tell g-p-m to automatically do it ot check that file instead of whatever is default??
[21:33] <wessel> This always happens after the pc is running for a while.
[21:33] <bazhang> Cyrus, bt4 is not supported here; please /join #backtrack-linux for support
[21:33] <the_g0at> sebsebseb, not unsecure,

[21:36] <cool3865_> Jordan_U: here is the LiveCD log http://pastebin.com/ABrk87cu
[21:36] <LinuxGuyMarshall> wessel, go to System > Administration > Users
[21:37] <the_g0at> LinuxGuyMarshall, i use a 500gb for my personal files and os the 2 x1.5TB is for file storage a serving purposes
[21:37] <LinuxGuyMarshall> wessel, also, bare with me here. I'm currently on Windows so I dont know the exact wording of what you are seeing
[21:37] <sebsebseb> edju: also since your on KDE well #kubuntu
[21:37] <Zwei> tulimaq_: LinuxGuyMarshall: paul111: Thanks, looking at those now
[21:37] <Jake2|cfl> vent: modified metacity in gconf-editor to move lucid "X" buttons back to right side.  Recent update erased the change.
[21:37] <Jordan_U> the_g0at: If you're running millions of lines of code as root (see:KDE, or even fluxbox + the miriad other apps that make a Desktop environment) that aren't designed to be bulletproof, then you don't know what you're doing. Backtrack is insecure for anyone.
[21:37] <the_g0at> Jordan_U, that was random
[21:38] <Veixes> celeritas: http://pastebin.com/WaPiN0zq
[21:38] <the_g0at> and wow type faster
[21:38] <gmonnie> can anybody help me out, having problems burning dvd's
[21:38] <cool3865_> Jordan_U: here is the HD Install log http://pastebin.com/8iRKyTTY
[21:38] <wessel> hmm, brb, reboot
[21:38] <sebsebseb> gmonnie: With which program and what is the exact problem?
[21:38] <mvk> ahh there you are...................................
[21:39] <mvk> i need the 2.6.33 kernel for my SSD drive (trimming support), so what i did was ... i installed 10.04 lucid
[21:39] <dragon4ce> hi every1
[21:39] <mvk> and then installed the 2.6.33 kernel from mainline ppa
[21:39] <celeritas> Veixes, try sudo Xorg -configure
[21:39] <mvk> didnt realize i didnt update the system before installing the new kernel
[21:39] <mvk> did i do it wrong? (its working, but i do see a notice or warning before it enters KDE... > really fast.. i cant read it)
[21:39] <paul111> gmonnie, i'm am using k3b & dumped brasero.
[21:39] <mvk> + the system tries to install a new 2.6.32 kernel automatically (as a security update)........ but of course i dont want this
[21:39] <gmonnie> :sebsebseb,using brasero currently, everytime i go to burn it ejects the disk, the disk i blank. Im just to burn a movie lol
[21:40] <minimec> mvk: YOu may find your kernel here http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ ;)
[21:40] <sebsebseb> gmonnie: yeah Brasero can go quite odd at times, K3B is rather nice :)
[21:40] <wessel> Hmm, it is still gray
[21:40] <mvk> minimec: i already got a kernel from there
[21:40] <wessel> ill try sudo poweroff - h
[21:40] <minimec> mvk: ok ;)
[21:40] <mvk> minimec: problem now is, the system (kubuntu) tries to autoupdate
[21:40] <mvk> back to 2.6.32 (im on 33-5)
[21:40] <sebsebseb> gmonnie: KDE though, so yeah will want to put on quite a bit of KDE stuff, if you haven't installed KDE apps before, but if your partition isn't a stupid size, then that shoudn't be an issue at all
[21:40] <kermit> how do i IRC with empathy?
[21:40] <mvk> minimec: if you read back..............
[21:41] <sebsebseb> gmonnie: also unlike Windows, Ubuntu and other Linux distros, are designed to have many programs installed, without issues
[21:41] <Veixes> celeritas: http://pastebin.com/DV8QyCDs
[21:41] <mvk> i installed that kernel right after installing lucid-lynx
[21:41] <Jordan_U> cool3865_: And the Xorg.0.log from the LiveCD to compare with?
[21:41] <CyrusSucksAtBT4> What is that BT channel again?
[21:41] <mvk> without updating.. then updated :/ is this wrong?
[21:41] <gmonnie> :sebsebseb, yeah im having problems with k3b tool
[21:41] <sebsebseb> kermit: not sure, but Xchat or Konversation a KDE app would be better
[21:41] <cool3865_> the link should be up there
[21:41] <bazhang> CyrusSucksAtBT4, #backtrack-linux
[21:41] <CyrusSucksAtBT4> Thank you
[21:41] <sebsebseb> kermit: Konversation :)   and when it comes to KDE apps well see above at what I sent to gmonnie
[21:41] <cool3865_> [15:36] <cool3865_> Jordan_U: here is the LiveCD log http://pastebin.com/ABrk87cu
[21:41] <wessel> hmm, poweroff -h did the trick
[21:41] <dragon4ce> @kermit just select irc as protocol
[21:41] <wessel> my log out screen is normal now
[21:41] <wessel> strange..
[21:42] <kermit> dragon4ce: it's not in the list
[21:42] <minimec> mvk: ??? kubuntu will install the recent kernels (unless if you remove the linux-image generic package), but it should always load the *.33 kernel, as that one is the newest.
[21:42] <paul111> kermit, try to google..there are many..how to?
[21:42] <mvk> minimec: but if i let the autoupdater install it, it will use that as the new default?
[21:42] <mvk> and update grub? :S
[21:43] <bastid_raZor> mvk: possibly pin the older 2.6.32 kernel that is already installed but unused
[21:43] <gmonnie> Im trying out K3b, can somebody walk me through, to make sure im doing it right
[21:43] <celeritas> Veixes, do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop , then sudo Xorg -configure , then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[21:43] <minimec> mvk: no. I will use 'position 0' of the grub entry file, which is normally the newest kernel by number(!). So *.33 is the newest kernel.
[21:43] <mvk> bastid_raZor: pin?
[21:44] <dragon4ce> kermit: go to accounts, then click add and as protocol irc
[21:44] <bastid_raZor> !pinning | mvk
[21:44] <kermit> dragon4ce: it's not in the list
[21:45] <dragon4ce> and if you update your system?
[21:45] <Nitro> Is Ubuntu good for gaming?
[21:45] <IdleOne> !games | Nitro
[21:45] <sebsebseb> Nitro: depends on what games you want to play
[21:45] <mvk> bastid_raZor: can i pin visually somehow? >kubuntu
[21:46] <sebsebseb> gmonnie: I guess they can in #kubuntu
[21:46] <minimec> mvk: are you on that computer now? open a console and type uname -a I am sure you are running the *.33 kernel now and you always will... ;)
[21:46] <Nitro> sebsebseb: Windows based games?
[21:46] <[Screamo]> uhm, are there any file undeleter utilitys?
[21:46] <dragon4ce> kermit: and if you update your system?
[21:46] <mvk> minimec: yes its .33
[21:46] <sebsebseb> Nitro: depends on the games
[21:46] <sebsebseb> Nitro: and there are good native games :)
[21:46] <Veixes> celeritas: http://pastebin.com/HNTxgnaj
[21:46] <kermit> dragon4ce: its still not there
[21:46] <dragon4ce> nitro: if you use crossover games you have a good chance
[21:47] <sebsebseb> !wine | Nitro
[21:47] <celeritas> Nitro, wine has a long list of supported windows applications
[21:47] <Nitro> sebsebseb: Yeah, but I used to be a Windows User and only played their type of games Ex. Men of War
[21:47] <paul111> Nitro, would you tell us the names of the games.
[21:47] <gmonnie> :sebsebseb, im running Kb3 and everytime i tryi to burn
[21:47] <minimec> mvk: that's the newest kernel and even if there are new *.32 kernel installs, the *.33 kernel will always be newer and therefore default ;)
[21:47] <sebsebseb> celeritas: ok are those games old and 2D or not?
[21:47] <sebsebseb> celeritas: ah competly wrong one
[21:47] <jda2000> Nitro, you might want to install VMWare or wine.
[21:47] <sebsebseb> Nitro:  ^
[21:47] <Nitro> Ok
[21:47] <Nitro> I have Wine
[21:47] <sebsebseb> Nitro: are those games old and 2D or not?
[21:47] <[Screamo]> i just accidently deleted most of my home folder
[21:47] <dragon4ce> kermit: wich version do u use? i use <IP_ADDRESS>
[21:48] <Nitro> sebsebseb: Oh no
[21:48] <bastid_raZor> mvk: does kubuntu use synaptic? if so you can pin it that way.
[21:48] <Nitro> sebsebseb: not at all
[21:48] <sebsebseb> [Screamo]: ok not the best idea, but not a big deal either
[21:48] <Walex> Nitro: I quite like Crossover Games, it has a small price but works pretty well, and they contribute back to WINE.
[21:48] <minimec> mvk: YOu don't need pinning or so. YOu can remove the linux-image-generic package to prevent further *.32 upgrades.
[21:48] <sebsebseb> Nitro: well then good luck with Wine
[21:48] <kermit> dragon4ce: in ubuntu 10.4 the current version is 2.30.1
[21:48] <mvk> minimec: bastid_raZor can you fight it out
[21:48] <mvk> then give me an answer? :>
[21:48] <Nitro> sebsebseb: Was that sarcastic? Or would wine be a good choice?
[21:48] <mvk> gentlemen ..................... FiGHT! ;)
[21:48] <celeritas> Veixes, you need to kill your xserver by stop the desktop manager. if you are using gnome, then service stop gdm. kde is service stop kde
[21:48] <sebsebseb> Nitro: well Wine is a very good program, but
[21:48] <bastid_raZor> mvk: no.
[21:48] <minimec> mvk: Just believe me. I don't have to fight ;)
[21:48] <sebsebseb> Nitro: it is about luck
[21:48] <[Screamo]> sebsebseb, as i said, accident, but uh, on windows there were uttilites to recover them, any for linux?
[21:49] <sebsebseb> Nitro: if your lucky the program you want to run works well in it
[21:49] <mvk> bastid_raZor: minimec: you guys have a different understanding of how it works
[21:49] <sebsebseb> Nitro: or can be configured without not much effort to work well in it
[21:49] <Nitro> sebsebseb: What other programs let you use windows games?
[21:49] <ManDay> How can I create italic text in GIMP?
[21:49] <sebrock_> hey I need a list of all the packages that are installed in karmic koala server? Is there a way to find this out without installing it again?
[21:49] <dragon4ce> kermit: i dont know really, im clients aren't my thing. i work with u 9.10 ;)
[21:49] <sebsebseb> Nitro: well Crossover Games yes, but thats a paid for app, just like Cedega is also a paid for app
[21:49] <bastid_raZor> minimec: future updates will not work the way they are intended if you remove the linux-image as it will remove kubuntu-destkop meta package
[21:49] <dragon4ce> kermit: and xchat
[21:49] <mvk> i should behave more like a chatalyst
[21:49] <mvk> sorry :)
[21:50] <SlidingHorn> sebrock_ http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/
[21:50] <sebsebseb> Nitro: most people that do Ubuntu, dual boot with Windows as well, because they want to run silly programs for Windows
[21:50] <mvk> bastid_raZor: minimec system wants to reboot... lets see who got it on the right end..
[21:50] <mvk> brb
[21:50] <sebsebseb> Nitro: and yes in my definition of silly programs for Windows, that does mean commercial Windows games
[21:50] <dragon4ce> does any1 know how to assign a percentage of cpu power to a process?
[21:50] <sebrock_> SlidingHorn, yeah I was thinking more of a text file just listing everything
[21:51] <sebsebseb> Nitro: 3D  virtaulization support is getting there slowly as well
[21:51] <SlidingHorn> sebrock_, I think that's as close as you're going to get, to be honest
[21:51] <sebsebseb> Nitro: eventaully will be able to 3D Windows game nicely in  Windows virtual machines, but it will be a while yet
[21:51] <paul111> ManDay, ctrl-i
[21:51] <dragon4ce> i want to convert my videos on my server but dont want to use 100% cpu power because of stability of apache
[21:51] <bastid_raZor> !clone | sebrock_ is a way.. read the list it creates
[21:51] <sebsebseb> Nitro: all I can suggest really is try Wine
[21:51] <hasnobrains_> hello
[21:52] <paul111> ManDay, ctrl + shift+i
[21:52] <bastid_raZor> sebsebseb: 'my-packages' file will have them lised
[21:52] <sebsebseb> Nitro: if your luck your game works well enough, and if not you may be able to configure it to.  If  not just play them on Windows, or stop playing the game
[21:52] <sebrock_> !automate
[21:52] <ManDay> thanks paul111
[21:52] <hasnobrains_> is there some ubuntu coders?
[21:52] <leonardo> how can i change the resolution
[21:53] <celeritas> sebrock_, try sudo dpkg --get-selections
[21:53] <leonardo> in a dell c600
[21:53] <leonardo> running xubuntu
[21:53] <SlidingHorn> !anyone|hasnobrains_
[21:53] <sebsebseb> Back to Windows that person goes I guess, ah well, since Ubuntu was never designed to properly replace Windows.
[21:53] <hasnobrains_> ok
[21:53] <dragon4ce> leonardo: do you use nvidia display drivers?
[21:53] <bastid_raZor> sebrock_: aptitude  --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages   is the command you need. then look in ~/my-packages
[21:53] <leonardo> no
[21:53] <leonardo> ati
[21:54] <chrometiger> Nitro: http://www.winehq.org/    or  http://www.winehq.org/    or  http://www.playonlinux.com/en/                   wine is best
[21:54] <sebsebseb> chrometiger: to late already gone
[21:54] <jda2000> dragon4ce, nice might be useful.
[21:54] <chrometiger> hmm
[21:54] <cool3865_> Jordan_U: notice anything about the two logs??
[21:54] <sebsebseb> chrometiger: altough yeah playonlinux would have been a good idea for me to recommend, but I forgot about that
[21:54] <Jordan_U> cool3865_: I can't figure out why it's working from the LiveCD but not in the install, try adding the kernel parameter "nouveau.blacklist=true" instead of "modeset=0"
[21:54] <kermit> paul111: i googled, i found one suggestion that didnt work
[21:54] <kermit> paul111: (to IRC with empathy)
[21:54] <hasnobrains_> I want to know where I can find source code of application which displays the dialog saying "Enter your password to perform administrative tasks" :)
[21:54] <SlidingHorn> Nitro: you can also check your games compatibility with WINE here: http://appdb.winehq.org -- and here's what the ratings mean http://appdb.winehq.org/help/?sTopic=maintainer_ratings
[21:55] <sebsebseb> SlidingHorn: to late already gone
[21:55] <Jordan_U> cool3865_: That should at least get you something useable.
[21:55] <minimec> bastid_raZor: I agree the missing generic and kubuntu-desktop package could be an issue when upgrading the system. Your way is nicer ;)
[21:55] <hasnobrains_> anyone?
[21:55] <SlidingHorn> sebsebseb, didnt see him leave
[21:55] <cool3865_> Jordan_U: ok, add it in the same place as modeset=0 was??
[21:55] <bastid_raZor> minimec: :)
[21:55] <sebsebseb> SlidingHorn: it was very quick,  probably didn't like some of what I said
[21:55] <SlidingHorn> hasnobrains_, what program, and why do you want to see this?
[21:55] <leonardo> i type sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and say that command not found
[21:55] <SlidingHorn> sebsebseb, what'd you do *this* time?? lol
[21:56] <paul111> kermit, i'm using pidgin & to configure irc is simple and straight...
[21:56] <sebsebseb> SlidingHorn: the truth again
[21:56] <kermit> paul111: yes it's simple in pidgin
[21:56] <Jordan_U> hasnobrains_: apt-get source gksu
[21:56] <dragon4ce> leonard: try sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:56] <hasnobrains_> I want the example of how to block the desktop and provide some dialog
[21:56] <SlidingHorn> sebsebseb, damn you!  haha
[21:56] <leonardo> how can i open it
[21:56] <sebsebseb> SlidingHorn: in other words nothing that bad, you can see above
[21:56] <celeritas> leonardo, use nano
[21:56] <dragon4ce> leonardo: please try sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:57] <cool3865_> Jordan_U: ahhh finally the login screen
[21:57] <sebsebseb> SlidingHorn: except for when I started saying about sily programs for Windows, I guess
[21:57] <o0splitpaw0o> exit
[21:57] <o0splitpaw0o> exit
[21:57] <Guest38306> how do i mount a windows cd in ubuntu? I've tried the mount -o loop command and furious iso mount, while they mount it they show it as empty, and its not just with this iso its with everyone i try
[21:58] <Jordan_U> o0splitpaw0o: /quit
[21:58] <SlidingHorn> o0splitpaw0o, try /exit instead ;)
[21:58] <sebsebseb> Guest38306: stick it in, and  Ubuntu should detect it
[21:58] <celeritas> hasnobrains_, ksudo or gsudo do that i think
[21:58] <Guest38306> sebsebseb: its an iso
[21:58] <cristian_c> Hi
[21:58] <sebsebseb> Guest38306: right ok
[21:58] <Jordan_U> cool3865_: Ok, login and try installing the proprietary drivers via System > Administration > Hardware Drivers.
[21:58] <sebsebseb> Guest38306: of a legal copy I hope
[21:58] <SlidingHorn> Guest38306, are you sure you burned them as *images* and not *data*?
[21:59] <chrometiger> Guest38306: have u tried  Gmount-iso
[21:59] <Guest38306> SlidingHorn: they are not cds, they are image files
[21:59] <bastid_raZor> celeritas: kdsudo and gksudo
[21:59] <sebsebseb> Guest38306: Windows ISO inside Ubuntu or any other OS, is pretty useless really, unless your going to use it for a virtual machine
[21:59] <Guest38306> chrometiger: no
[21:59] <hasnobrains_> Ok, thanks I'll check it
[21:59] <Guest38306> will try
[21:59] <chrometiger> its in synaptic
[21:59] <cristian_c> I was told I must edit /etc/gdm/custom.conf to enable login sounds
[22:00] <Jordan_U> Guest38306: What does "file /path/to/iso" output?
[22:00] <SlidingHorn> Guest38306: what are you trying to mount the image for?  As sebsebseb said, you're not going to be able to do much of anything with it unless you're setting up a windows virtual machine
[22:00] <cristian_c> user's manual says this:
[22:00] <cristian_c> Greeter=bin/gdmlogin --disable-sound
[22:00] <cristian_c> Full path and name of the greeter executable followed by optional arguments.
[22:00] <Guest38306> SlidingHorn: it is a game, i want to run it using wine
[22:01] <cristian_c> my custom.conf is
[22:01] <cristian_c> !pastebin
[22:01] <SlidingHorn> Guest38306, why don't you just use the CD itself?
[22:01] <sebsebseb> Guest38306: why is it not already on a CD then?
[22:01] <malchias> Is there a server only (ubuntu apache) channel?
[22:01] <Jordan_U> malchias: #ubuntu-server
[22:01] <paul111> SlidingHorn, let him try & we wait for results...
[22:01] <cristian_c> http://paste.ubuntu.com/452188/
[22:02] <bastid_raZor> malchias: also #httpd for general apache help
[22:02] <malchias> thank you.
[22:02] <SlidingHorn> paul111, just trying to decipher why he's using an .iso instead of the cd itself...sounds like a pirated copy situation, in which case, we cannot help
[22:02] <sebsebseb> SlidingHorn: I think we both know the answer to the question :D
[22:02] <Jordan_U> malchias: You're welcome.
[22:02] <SlidingHorn> sebsebseb, yeppers
[22:02] <Guest38306> chrometiger: :   : where do i find gmount iso now that i have it?
[22:03] <Veixes> celeritas:  service stop gdm or kde doesn't do anything. I did a google search to lower the nagging on you and it says that I could find a UI way of stopping it under System/Administration/ Services   But There is no entry for Services under Administration. I guess that was in an older version of Ubuntu
