[04:27] <alexandre> hello, i just installed ubunto here. how do i stop the
[04:27] <zerq> SirTopHat: that system volume was probably just a restore partition, shouldn't effect linux drivers..
[04:27] <ZupZupper> SirTopHat: that Volume was just for restoring windows
[04:27] <pieces> ZupZupper, ubuntu 9.10 on the one sharing, 9.04 on the one trying to access the shares
[04:28] <alexandre> stop for asking authentication to make changes or to see others drivers?
[04:28] <ZupZupper> pieces: how's the external connected and is it sharing over smb?
[04:28] <zerq> SirTopHat: did it recommend any restricted drivers after booting up 9.04?
[04:28] <SirTopHat> well when it was there the hardware worked all the way and now it doesn't
[04:28] <SirTopHat> no
[04:28] <pieces> connected with usb, and yes sharing using smb
[04:28] <ZupZupper> SirTopHat: what version of ubuntu did you previously?
[04:28] <SirTopHat> I'm letting it install updates, maybe one of those will fix it
[04:28] <SirTopHat> same 9.04
[04:29] <zerq> hmm.. haven't tried SD cards on my netbook since installing 9.10..
[04:29] <zerq> looks like it works though
[04:29] <ZupZupper> pieces: do you have another system you can test the shares with?
[04:30] <alexandre> how do i cancel the authentication thing that pop up every time?
[04:30] <owen1> is there any good tutorial i should follow for configuring my awesome (3.3.4 on ubuntu 9.10)?
[04:30] <ZupZupper> hooray for vmware =)
[04:30] <SirTopHat> how can I check if it's there, just not being automounted
[04:31] <ZupZupper> SirTopHat: plug it in and run dmesg
[04:31] <ZupZupper> see if its detected
[04:31] <SirTopHat> that's a lot of output.
[04:31] <SirTopHat> it didn't fit into the window.
[04:32] <ZupZupper> SirTopHat: it'll be near the bottom
[04:32] <zerq> scsi 8:0:0:0: Direct-Access     Generic- Multi-Card       1.00 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 CCS
[04:32] <zerq> should say something like that
[04:32] <SirTopHat> hm
[04:33] <SirTopHat> I don't see anything like that
[04:33] <alexandre> i justed installed ubuntu here, it's pretty cool so far
[04:33] <Kudi> is the keybindings file for openbox located in home/.config/openbx/rc.xml?
[04:33] <SirTopHat> It can't allocate EISA slows 1 through 7.
[04:33] <SirTopHat> slots*
[04:34] <SirTopHat> EISA detected 0 cards.
[04:34] <SirTopHat> revelent?
[04:34] <danijel5> i'm installed samba,on the other side i use win7 but there is no connection,i use karmic koala,can somebody help me with steps?
[04:34] <tmus> having installed karmic using debootstrap, i'm having trouble getting my danish keyboard to work... I'm sure i'm missing some tiny bit... Anyone?
[04:35] <pieces> ZupZupper, yeah I just tried with my laptop, ubuntu 9.04 i get the same message
[04:36] <pieces> ZupZupper, I have tried unsharing and resharing too and that hasnt worked wither
[04:36] <ZupZupper> pieces: smbmount //servername/sharename /mountdirectory -o username=mywindowsusername,password=mywindowspassword
[04:36] <ZupZupper> try mounting it manually
[04:36] <ZupZupper> you might get a more verbose error
[04:37] <owen1> how do you guys organize all the config for the different apps you are using? is it all in .config folder?
[04:37] <pieces> ZupZupper, its an open share do i still need user name and stuff?
[04:37] <ZupZupper> pieces: nah try without it
[04:37] <ZupZupper> pieces: if that fails, use a username and pass, see if it succeeds
[04:38] <pieces> ZupZupper, so just smbmount //servername/sharename /mountdirectory -o
[04:38] <chuckf_> I'm having an issue with grub2. I just got a new laptop today with Win7. I installed Kubuntu and shrank the windows partition. Set up the Kubuntu side of things okay. Rebooted to configure the win7. After a couple of reboots there and some updates I now cannot boot. I see the bios post, the grub2 header then the screen goes white for a few seconds and reboots.
[04:38] <SirTopHat> how can I check if my SD card slot is recognized at all
[04:38] <Warp4> SirDidi lspci or dmesg
[04:39] <ZupZupper> pieces: you don't need the -o
[04:39] <pieces> ok
[04:39] <SirTopHat> I don't see anything about it there, Warp4.
[04:40] <SirTopHat> bbl
[04:40] <Zombie> Is there a place I can get a good Ubuntu Mupen64Plus 1.5 build?
[04:42] <pieces> ZupZupper, mount error: can not change directory into mount target /mnt/Videos
[04:43] <ZupZupper> pieces: whats the whole command you ran?
[04:43] <alexandre> how do i login with the root user?
[04:43] <zerq> "For a better Gmail experience, use a fully supported browser."
[04:43] <pieces> ZupZupper $ smbmount //desktop/Videos /mnt/Videos
[04:44] <zerq> maybe i just won't use gmail anymore, fascists ;p
[04:44] <wgrant> !sudo | alexandre
[04:44] <gebrax> alexandre can system >>login
[04:44] <chuckf_> alexandre: what is your need to log in as root?
[04:44] <ZupZupper> pieces: does /mnt/Videos exist locally?
[04:44] <pieces> ZupZupper, no, just /mnt
[04:44] <ZupZupper> pieces: create /mnt/Videos and try the command again
[04:46] <ZupZupper> chuckf_: he's trying to disable the prompts for his password

[04:56] <scott258> Halo. ;D
[04:56] <theneoindian> hi ,  my usb headset goes mute for no reason . why is dis happening ?
[04:56] <scott258> What brand headset?
[04:56] <leaf-sheep> u dunno y teh usb headset go go quizzle fo shizzle no reason, my little bro, u ned 2 google and kick it down with bugs boys at launchpad, fo sho get your problem done asap. repeat is no good here.
[04:57] <mom> 16 and 18 pt look bad too
[04:57] <wapko> lol
[04:57] <theneoindian> scott258, creative
[04:58] <Blue1> why doesn't unrar -e <filename> work?
[04:58] <theneoindian> i usually 've to go to the padevchooser and unmute the headset .
[04:58] <scott258> When I ping an IP why doesn't it stop after 4 pings and give me the results?
[04:58] <leaf-sheep> Blue1: unrar is not installed?
[04:58] <tony_> t.com
[04:58] <ardchoille> Blue1: try: unrar e <filename>
[04:59] <wapko> Blue1: isnt it unrar e file
[04:59] <wgrant> scott258: Because only Windows ping stops after four pings by default. Press Ctrl+C to stop it.
[04:59] <scott258> Thanks.
[04:59] <Tartaros> !apparmor
[04:59] <Blue1> ardchoille: that worked - wow that's weird - first time I've seen an option without the dash
[04:59] <leaf-sheep> scott258: You can use "ping -c 4 scott.com" to give it a count of pings.
[05:00] <Tartaros> hmm, is there a channel here somewhat specialised to apparmor?
[05:00] <ardchoille> Blue1: tar also needs no dashes now
[05:00] <Dadman> Question - Am I correct in assuming my Ubuntu Linux is not subject to viruses and hacks associated with Windows?
[05:00] <flexible> i've recently set up ubuntu 9.10 on an old computer to work as a headless fileserver, however torrentflux seems to only manage up to 16~kbps, whereas my iMac, on the same network, manages to acheive up to 1.2megs a second... can anyone help me work out what is wrong?
[05:00] <Aislin1> Anyone awake?
[05:00] <Blue1> ardchoille: I probably haven't touched rar or tar in about 2-3 years or so
[05:00] <scott258> I thought some of the commands would be like CMD's.
[05:01] <adminewb> well no takers on partition table corruption so far, how about help on disk imaging for backup, done from a recovery mode shell?
[05:01] <ardchoille> !virus | Dadman
[05:01] <leaf-sheep> Dadman: You're correct.  Right on the money.
[05:01] <jeez1234> where do i change desktop icon text font properties?
[05:01] <dhiaeldeen> welcome to my site , www.3dkernel.com , for blender users ...
[05:01] <ardchoille> Dadman: However, that doesn't mean you can stop working on security, computer security is a process, not a product
[05:02] <Aislin1> I may be being retarded, but I think it's my wireless card/whatever. I'm having trouble connecting to the internet in ubuntu netbook remix. My problem seems to be common, given I have the BCM4312 card thing, but I can't find/install fw-cutter.
[05:02] <Aislin1> Anyone familiar with netbook remix?
[05:03] <Aislin1> Should I take that as a no?
[05:03] <Tartaros> Aislin1: netbook remix is not really different from ubuntu as such, it only has a launcher as desktop background a nd a few such little features...
[05:03] <ardchoille> !unr
[05:03] <Tartaros> so you shouldn't ask about netbook remix if it's wireless card you have problem with
[05:03] <bazhang> Aislin1, if this is karmic check in hardware drivers
[05:04] <Jordan_U> Aislin1: Can you connect via ethernet to install fwcutter?
[05:04] <Aislin1> I just tried that, no luck.
[05:04] <flexible> i've recently set up ubuntu 9.10 on an old computer to work as a headless fileserver, however torrentflux seems to only manage up to 16~kbps, whereas my iMac, on the same network, manages to acheive up to 1.2megs a second... can anyone help me work out what is wrong?

[05:05] <switchgirl> the link is info on my pc
[05:05] <jeez1234> does gconf-editor allow me to change icon font properties?
[05:05] <Jordan_U> Aislin1: What exactly did you run, "sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter" ?
[05:06] <bazhang> adminewb, backintime-gnome ?
[05:06] <wgrant> jeez1234: System->Preferences->Appearance->Fonts doesn't do what you want? It has a "Desktop font" option?
[05:06] <leaf-sheep> jeez1234: Did you check out Fonts in Appaerances?
[05:06] <bazhang> !info backintime-common | adminewb
[05:06] <Dadman> Question 2 - Is there an open-source version of a masking/personal internet security  software like "Ghost Surf"?
[05:06] <Aislin1> Assume "sudo apt-get install" for the beginning of each. I tried fw-cutter, fwcutter, b43-fwcutter, b4312-fwcutter
[05:07] <ardchoille> Aislin1: apt-cache search -n fwcutter

[05:08] <Jordan_U> Aislin1: Can you install any packages?

[05:10] <sync3times> flexible, your inbound ports are pointing to the other one

[05:16] <akyapt> bazhang :from the terminal

[05:16] <bazhang> !info playonlinux
[05:16] <flexible> which is doesn't do well considering it is only getting 20kbs, when it should be getting almost 1mb
[05:16] <akyapt> bazhang :yes
[05:16] <akyapt> tartaros:yes
[05:16] <bazhang> akyapt, paste.ubuntu.com with the errors
[05:16] <wgrant> lcb: You can download the 32-bit release.

[05:17] <Tartaros> flexible: well but do you really know how busy it is?
[05:17] <lcb> wgrant, is it possible to download? torrent or something?
[05:17] <bart_> No sorry

[05:20] <flexible> Tartaros: the computer is simply a backup system/fileserver with movies/songs/data etc that runs internally on the home network... nothing major or fancy....
[05:20] <Tartaros> flexible: yeah but what it's simply too weak cpu and/or memory wise to perform better?
[05:21] <bart_> exit
[05:21] <MikeChelen> after changing the device profile in sound hardware tab, my bluetooh headphones no longer appear. is there some way to reset this?
[05:22] <flexible> Tartaros: it was a spare computer from my father's office. what does this have to do with torrenting?
[05:23] <bazhang> flexible, are other computers sharing this network bandwidth
[05:23] <Tartaros> "what it's simply too weak cpu and/or memory wise to perform better?" is what it might have to do with torrenting
[05:24] <Tartaros> what if* more like
[05:24] <DanaG> grr, HP changed stuff, so now fn-f4 just sends super-P.
[05:24] <flexible> so a 1ghz computer is incapable of downloading a file? don't be ridiculous...
[05:24] <bazhang> Tartaros, its unlikely that will affect dl speeds
[05:25] <bazhang> flexible, so shared bandwidth?
[05:25] <flexible> bazhang: yeh, a lot are, but as previously stated this problem never occured on my iMac, on the same network... and in fact whilst downloading on torrentflux, my transmission on iMac reaches speeds of 800kb
[05:25] <flexible> yes
[05:25] <bazhang> flexible, I would suggest if not then it is a upnp issue
[05:26] <Tartaros> flexible: you never said how fast it is, that's what I was asking about, mr. ridiculous
[05:26] <bazhang> flexible, what is the total available, if iMac is using 800k
[05:26] <bazhang> Tartaros, no need for that
[05:26] <flexible> hahahaha okay tartaros
[05:26] <flexible> uhm, generally i max out on http downloading at around 1.3mb/s
[05:26] <Tartaros> bazhang: need for what?
[05:26] <bazhang> Tartaros, no name-calling. please stop.
[05:27] <Tartaros> can't stop what i didn't start
[05:27] <bazhang> flexible, then I would look to upnp port forwarding
[05:27] <flexible> on which end, my router or on torrentflux?
[05:28] <Kvist> jbo
[05:28] <bazhang> flexible, never used torrentflux, have you checked in settings/preferences? my router automatically does it as I have it setup that way
[05:29] <flexible> yeh i have it set up, just checked
[05:29] <bazhang> flexible, that is where I would be looking
[05:29] <flexible> so the problem lies in torrentflux?
[05:29] <MikeChelen> flexible: upnp needs to be supported by both router & software
[05:29] <bazhang> flexible, not sure will check their documentation
[05:29] <MikeChelen> flexible: an alternative is to manually forward some ports on the router, and set torrenflux to use those
[05:30] <flexible> Mike, i also did that
[05:31] <bazhang> http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/1124310.html flexible this may help

[05:33] <MikeChelen> think vuze has one as well
[05:33] <flexible> is it in the repositories?
[05:33] <bazhang> flexible, better alternative with webui? deluge for one
[05:33] <bazhang> flexible, yep
[05:33] <flexible> apt-get install deluge?
[05:34] <MikeChelen> yup and deluge-webui
[05:34] <mneptok> flexible: i use Deluge, but the default torrent client Transmission has a web ui.
[05:34] <spO> how long is it going to take for a new kernel witht he new gcc 4.4.2 ?   4.4.1 gcc has problems
[05:35] <flexible> oh, transmission has one?
[05:35] <flexible> well i might as well try that, as it works flawlessly on my mac
[05:36] <flexible> is there a commandline tool that i can use that will display the current running processes
[05:36] <DanaG> ps?
[05:36] <scunizi> flexible: top, htop, mtop
[05:36] <DanaG> htop is nice.
[05:36] <bazhang> flexible, why not just get rtorrent :)
[05:37] <flexible> what is rtorrent?
[05:38] <mneptok> flexible: CLI client based on ncurses
[05:38] <scunizi> flexible: or transmission
[05:38] <flexible> bazhang: why that over transmission
[05:38] <mneptok> flexible: Transmission is installed by default.
[05:38] <mneptok> flexible: (on desktop systems)
[05:38] <bazhang> flexible, just a suggestion as you were talking about command line
[05:38] <leaf-sheep> flexible: Minimal. Small footprint. Terminal (not GUI).
[05:39] <computer> does remote desktop come with xubuntu? all i see is remote desktop viwer
[05:41] <squ1d> Greetings from America!
[05:41] <arvinoids> hello need help with saa7130 tuner
[05:41] <flexible> yep, just started a torrent on transmission, and it is getting 350kbps...
[05:41] <flexible> thanks guys
[05:41] <bazhang> flexible, you're welcome
[05:41] <b0w> whats the name of the package
[05:41] <scott258> In what directory would I find programming programs (That are already installed) ?
[05:42] <b0w> ubuntu restricted extras??
[05:42] <squ1d> Hows um everyone?
[05:43] <leaf-sheep> b0w: http://tinyurl.com/yhrrao2
[05:44] <b0w> thanks
[05:44] <kbp> Hi i have a question. I need to install bunches of web services on ubuntu desktop. Instead of install 1 by 1 (ftp,lamp etc.) can I just insert the ubuntu server cd and use repositories?
[05:45] <leaf-sheep> kbp: What do you mean? Regardless of Gnome, KDE, XFCE, Server-related, etc, etc... everything are on Ubuntu repo.  Also, Server-edition does not have any GUI.
[05:45] <scunizi> kbp: do it from terminal .. sudo tasksel .. and it will give you a menu to choose from .. check off what you want and go..
[05:46] <squ1d> join ubuntu-offtopic
[05:46] <squ1d> sorry, dang commands
[05:46] <megamanx1978> Hi
[05:46] <treebear1> hows it going
[05:46] <DanaG> grr, I guess I need to file a bug about needing a super-P hotkey.
[05:47] <treebear1> you can set your own hotkeys
[05:47] <DanaG> I mean, my laptop no longer gives the XF86Video key on fn-f4... it gives super-P.
[05:47] <flan_suse> Is there anyone here that uses Amarok in GNOME?
[05:47] <DanaG> Or "Mod4+P", as gnome says.
[05:47] <treebear1> xmodmap
[05:48]  * DanaG tries making Linux not claim to be Windows 7.
[05:48] <treebear1> no, but vlc is a lot easier
[05:48] <kbp> leaf-sheep, scunizi : thank you... actually I tried to do it offline because the repositories is too slow. My internet speed is like 1MBs but the server speed is just 8KBs.
[05:48] <Blue1> flan_suse: yes I do
[05:48] <megamanx1978> I recently switched from ubuntu 9.04 to 9.10 and now I have sound issues I hope I dont have to downgrade back to 9.04 to fix that
[05:49] <flan_suse> Blue1, question: Does Amarok on your GNOME environment play audio CDs? (And what backend do you use? Xine or GStreamer?)
[05:49] <Jevon> DOes anyone have experience checking out through SVN
[05:49] <Blue1> flan_suse: not tried audio cd - and I use gstreamer
[05:50] <Tartaros> kbp: try another repository server. you should be able to find one that is faster than 8KBps
[05:50] <arvinoids> hi all, need help. how do I make FM work on encore ENLTV-FM.
[05:50] <kbp> Tartaros: which one do you recommend?
[05:50] <Tartaros> megamanx1978: try formulating a question, and include more info than "sound issues" :)
[05:50] <flan_suse> Blue1, if you have an audio CD, try it out some time.
[05:51] <Tartaros> kbp: probably "main" :)
[05:51] <Blue1> flan_suse: burning a cd now --
[05:51] <scunizi> kbp: you might be able to do it from the server cd.. just enable the cd option in the repository section and disable the internet based ones.. worth a shot.
[05:51] <nanotube> Jevon: what are you checking out?
[05:51] <Tartaros> kbp: and also ofc. one that seems closest to ou. if neither is fast, just try some random ones :)
[05:52] <Jevon> image files and folders from a website
[05:52] <napster> Hi all...
[05:52] <Tartaros> !hi | napster
[05:52] <napster> Can I use kdenlive on xfce..?
[05:52] <napster> !xfce
[05:52] <megamanx1978> Well in games my sound gets some static then stops playing after a few minutes
[05:52] <napster> !kdenlive
[05:53] <freaky[t]> !ubuntu
[05:53] <megamanx1978> That did not happen in 9.04
[05:53] <napster> bots don't know....!
[05:53] <nanotube> Jevon: well just use the "svn checkout" command, assuming you have svn installed...
[05:53] <dman> for some reason my gnome-settings-daemon and volume control applet are using about 500mb of ram in most current 9.10, anyone know whats up?
[05:53] <ron_007> how can i install office 2007 in ubuntu 9-10?
[05:54] <Jevon> getting an unrecognized URL scheme. I am assuming it is because I have ssh://library here
[05:54] <Jevon> why would you install office?
[05:54] <scunizi> ron_007: what do you need in office that isn't in openoffice?
[05:54] <napster> ron_007: You mean open Office..?
[05:54] <bazhang> ron_007, check the appdb , help in #winhq
[05:54] <freaky[t]> ron_007 theres openoffice for linux ;D test it ^^
[05:54] <bazhang> !appdb | ron_007
[05:54] <nanotube> Jevon: so you're trying to access the svn repo through ssh, then?
[05:54] <Jevon> yes
[05:54] <Tartaros> !openoffice
[05:55] <napster> !welcome | kannan
[05:55] <bazhang> ron_007, check that website and /join #winehq
[05:55] <napster> Can I use kdenlive on xfce..?
[05:55] <kannan> did vuze update to <IP_ADDRESS> to anyone automatically?
[05:55] <ron_007> open office is not that good.
[05:55] <scunizi> napster: should be able to
[05:55] <nanotube> Jevon: svn checkout svn+ssh://your.domain.com/full/path/to/repository
[05:55] <Jevon> ron_007: what extra functions do you need
[05:55] <bazhang> ron_007, then ask in that channel after using that website
[05:56] <nanotube> Jevon: the key is "svn+ssh"
[05:56] <kannan> did vuze update to <IP_ADDRESS> to anyone automatically?
[05:56] <napster> scunizi: You tried..?
[05:56] <bazhang> napster, install it and try
[05:57] <bazhang> kannan, nope
[05:57] <Jevon> nanotube: THanks for the tip. At least I got it that far, now I just need it to see the repo
[05:57] <scunizi> napster: installing will pull in the necessary dependancies.. you could also look at LiVeS at www.getdeb.net
[05:57] <nanotube> Jevon: :)
[05:58] <om26er> how can i mount a usb after unmounting it. ( i don't want to have a custom mount point it should automatically make on)
[05:58] <kannan> bazhang, it seems <IP_ADDRESS> released and in windows it already updated.. in karmic it's not updating.. do u kno any soluiton..?
[05:58] <Tartaros> om26er: click on it in nautilus?
[05:58] <Dantonic> !ssh
[05:58] <om26er> Tartaros, i wan't a terminal way
[05:59] <Nightlonewolf> om26er: mount <drive name>
[05:59] <Tartaros> well I'm a clicky person :)
[05:59] <bazhang> kannan, ubuntu is not a rolling release distro; the newest dont enter the repos immediately upon their release. you could compile or search for a PPA I suppose not sure why you would need the higher number though
[05:59] <Nightlonewolf> the drive name is something like /dev/sda1
[05:59] <om26er> Nightlonewolf, but i also have to give a mount point?
[06:00] <Nightlonewolf> mount <drivename> <directory to mount on>
[06:00] <Nightlonewolf> if my memory serves correct, if not, mount --help always works
[06:01] <nanotube> om26er: see here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB#Manually%20Mounting   in particular look at 'pmount'
[06:01] <seidos> chromeos or android in virtual box?
[06:01] <Dantonic> How do I figure out my desktop's IP so that I can connect to it remotely through SSH?
[06:01] <Dantonic> I have openssh installed
[06:01] <Tartaros> om26er: 9.04 or 9.1?
[06:01] <kannan> bazhang , i didn't install it from repos.. and i have <IP_ADDRESS>. it seems it has some bugs.. so ,want a higher number ;)
[06:02] <bazhang> seidos, ask in #vbox
[06:02] <Nightlonewolf> or, om26er  you could edit /etc/fstab (BACK IT UP if you edit it) set a custom directory to it, then use mount <drive>
[06:02] <seidos> bazhang: thank you
[06:02] <bazhang> kannan, good luck then
[06:02] <leaf-sheep> Dantonic: By typing "ifconfig eth0" in your Desktop.  Alternative, find out the IP addresses via router website.
[06:04] <Dantonic> leaf-sheep, ah, so I'll probably need a router address I'm guessing.  What if my ISP provides me with a dynamic ip, is there a way to configure it so I can always ssh through to my dekstop?
[06:04] <om26er_> Nightlonewolf, after unmounting is there a way to mount it again without giving it a mount point (or system should think its plugged in again)
[06:04] <nanotube> om26er: see here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB#Manually%20Mounting   in particular look at 'pmount'
[06:04] <scunizi> om26er: you could create a directory in /media with sudo mkdir /media/sda1 and then mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[06:04] <ctmjr> Dantonic: quik and dirty way google "whats my ip"
[06:05] <Nightlonewolf> well, if you want to do it the quick and dirty way, unplug it, and plug it back in; thats what i do for my usb
[06:05] <leaf-sheep> Dantonic: If you're using router, you'll have to forward port 22 to your desktop.  Also, you could use no-ip or dynsdns. Those are free services.
[06:05] <nanotube> Nightlonewolf: that's my favorite method, as well. :P
[06:05] <Dantonic> leaf-sheep, thank you I'll look into that
[06:05] <leaf-sheep> Dantonic: Basically, you'd be doing "ssh Dantonic.no-ip.org" ;o
[06:05] <om26er_> scunizi, nanotube i don't want to mount by giving it a mount point. it should be like i plugged it again without getting the usb out
[06:06] <Tartaros> om26er_: what ubuntu version are you using?
[06:07] <nanotube> om26er_: as i said before: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB#Using%20pmount   which explicitly states that you can leave off the mountpoint option, and it will mount in /media/devicename
[06:07] <Nightlonewolf> nanotube; i think it works the best,  :P
[06:07] <ctmjr> om26er: if it is in fstab then just run mount /dev/device
[06:07] <om26er_> nanotube, yes it hink pmount is what i wan't
[06:08] <nanotube> om26er_: give it a try ;)
[06:08] <MK13> is there a way to install ubuntu to another partition while booted into a pre-existing installation?
[06:08] <nanotube> Nightlonewolf: only when you are within physical reach of the machine in question ;)
[06:09] <Tartaros> om26er_: if you're using 9.10 then what you want is "devkit-disks --mount"
[06:09] <om26er_> nanotube, great that worked thanx
[06:09] <Nightlonewolf> well, if my hands aren't i have other methods of getting the usb out and in again
[06:09] <eternalswd> pynotify and notify-send fail for me on 64-bit karmic.  This is an upgrade from jaunty.  Anyone know any fixes?  I get libnotify-Message: GetServerInformation call failed: Too few arguments in reply libnotify-Message: Error getting spec version
[06:09] <nanotube> Nightlonewolf: heh.
[06:09] <nanotube> om26er_: excellent :)
[06:10]  * Nightlonewolf points at slave and yells at her to put the usb out and in again
[06:10] <nanotube> Tartaros: yet another fancy new tool, eh?
[06:10] <Nightlonewolf> :P
[06:10] <SanityInAnarchy> So, after just about any amount of access, one of my drives is resetting itself. Is it the drive or the controller?
[06:10] <burningatrocity> hello
[06:11] <Nightlonewolf> Hello burningatrocity
[06:11] <burningatrocity> got a question to start
[06:11] <burningatrocity> how do I register my name?
[06:11] <burningatrocity> can't remember, been too long since I've used linux
[06:11] <Tartaros> nanotube: dunno about that. All I know is that ubuntu has moved from hal to DeviceKit regarding mounting stuff
[06:11] <nanotube> burningatrocity: you mean, register on this irc network?
[06:11] <Jevon> burningatrocity: ./chanserv help
[06:11] <nanotube> Tartaros: ah, yea i remember hearing something about it...
[06:12] <nanotube> Tartaros: is devkit any better than hal?
[06:12] <Tartaros> how should I know :) I'm just a puny user
[06:12] <virtuald> Why does it take so long to boot Karmic when you don't get a DHCP reply?
[06:12] <nanotube> Tartaros: haha ic
[06:13] <Nightlonewolf> ok, well, my body is slowly shutting down (considered i just forgot to put a main() function in my program) so, i'm out for the night have fun you ppl!
[06:13] <nanotube> virtuald: probably because it has some kind of long timeout on failure to get an ip...
[06:13] <nanotube> Nightlonewolf: sweet dreams ;)
[06:13] <seidos> night lonewolf
[06:13] <Jevon> burningatrocity: ./nickserv help, my mistake
[06:13] <burningatrocity> ok thanks
[06:13] <Nightlonewolf> you too nanotube :P
[06:13] <Jordan_U> MK13: You can use debootstrap but it's not easy ( and there may be a better way )
[06:14] <nanotube> Nightlonewolf: tx i'm about to hit the sack myself
[06:14] <MK13> Jordan_U,  i think i found what i was looking for here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux  thanks for that suggestion though
[06:14] <mom> hi does anyone know why when i print proggy fonts they look fine at 16pt, but they look terrible when displayed in ubuntu?
[06:15] <SanityInAnarchy> Should I even be asking in this channel?  I think my hard drive is dying, that or my whole box:  http://pastebin.com/m6f1b5e77
[06:15] <SanityInAnarchy> those are the results of 'grep ata3 /var/log/kern.log'
[06:16] <virtuald> nanotube: Yeah but what could wait/hang like that?
[06:16] <nanotube> SanityInAnarchy: try running some smart disk diagnostics tools?
[06:17] <nanotube> virtuald: dunno - whatever it is that's expecting an ip address ;)
[06:17] <virtuald> Also my consoles are gone
[06:17] <SanityInAnarchy> nanotube:  I do run them. Found no errors in the error log. Both short and long selftest as recently as a few days ago found no errors.
[06:17] <virtuald> Which make recovery mode unusable
[06:18] <kermit_> is there any indonesian ubuntu user
[06:18] <kermit_> is there any indonesian ubuntu user
[06:19] <nanotube> SanityInAnarchy: hrm, well, try asking in ##linux or ##hardware, maybe...
[06:19] <om26er_> kermit_, others are also gonna help u
[06:19] <Jordan_U> kermit_: There is an indonesian channel, #ubuntu-id
[06:22] <Jordan_U> mom: Are you using the pcf version of the fonts?
[06:22] <mom> Jordan_U, nope, im using the ttf
[06:22] <mom> Jordan_U, i copied to my .fonts directory
[06:23] <virtuald> What's strange is I flashed my BIOS and now I get a new MAC on every cold boot. My isp's shitty system won't give me an internal ip as it should so I can't register my MAC from this computer.
[06:24] <Jordan_U> mom: Try the .pcf versions since they are bitmap fonts and ttf is vector based
[06:25] <Jordan_U> virtuald: You can set your mac address in System > Preferences > Networking
[06:25] <mom> Jordan_U, just copy to my .fonts directory?
[06:25] <Jordan_U> mom: Yes
[06:25] <scunizi> !fonts | mom
[06:25] <mom> Jordan_U, i will need to delete the ttf files?
[06:26] <virtuald> And when i tried to set my MAC in /etc/interfaces nothing worked
[06:26] <Jordan_U> mom: I don't know
[06:26] <SanityInAnarchy> nanotube:  Yeah, smart is going to be useless. The kernel is automatically resetting the drive, frequently, which resets the SMART test.
[06:26] <Jordan_U> virtuald: Use System > Preferences > Networking
[06:26] <om26er> !test
[06:27] <virtuald> I can't use network manager, it's crippled compared to ifupdown
[06:27] <Jordan_U> virtuald: How so?
[06:27] <johnny2good> sleep ;-{
[06:28] <virtuald> It doesn't do bridges or 6to4 and I need that for virtual machines
[06:28] <nanotube> SanityInAnarchy: hrm... well i guess you have to figure this out by elimination. try (a) booting from a livecd of a known-working distro, to rule out any software problems (b) take out the disk try it on a different computer, to rule out motherboard problems or confirm disk hardware problems  ... you know, the usual :)
[06:29] <RabidNelson> I have a problem install GTK themes. I can install them, apply them, and they're in .themes, but I can't display them in the themes viewer
[06:29] <SanityInAnarchy> nanotube:  I think b is about my only option, and I can't do that tonight. Only different computer available is this laptop.
[06:29] <RabidNelson> they always show up as "Custom"
[06:29] <RabidNelson> is there any way to fix this?
[06:30] <mcurran> If anyone else had stuttering videos online with Karmic, then compile the new kernel (2.6.31-15-generic).  It fixed my videos.
[06:30] <om26er> mcurran, why compile why not use proposed
[06:30] <nanotube> SanityInAnarchy: can't try a livecd? that's a 'simpler' step...
[06:30] <tongueroo> hey guys, anyone know how to fix this network card problem im having?  https://gist.github.com/e715643b00790b1ea7d4
[06:30] <mcurran> I'm just suggesting what I know worked.
[06:30] <Tartaros> mcurran: compile as opposed to just using the precompiled one from package?
[06:31] <om26er> mcurran, for furue use. http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[06:31] <SanityInAnarchy> nanotube:  That's not "simpler" -- it's a server. A personal one, but I'd still like to minimize downtime.
[06:31] <nanotube> SanityInAnarchy: ah...
[06:31] <SanityInAnarchy> At least the other two drives seem ok...  seem...  for a moment there, the BIOS couldn't find _any_ drives.
[06:31] <om26er> mcurran, you can get any kernel from here.
[06:32] <mcurran> Thanks
[06:32] <SanityInAnarchy> Wow. And now it's absolutely fine.
[06:32] <Irakirashia> Is truecrypt a good option to encrypt all my entire disk if I'm using Ubuntu?
[06:32] <nanotube> SanityInAnarchy: heh weird...
[06:32] <Irakirashia> Or may I have some trouble?
[06:33] <SanityInAnarchy> nanotube:  Is there any reason I shouldn't do smart tests?
[06:33] <mom> Jordan_U, i copied the font.pcf.gz to my .font directory and it isnt detected
[06:33] <Jordan_U> mom: Try uncompressing it first
[06:33] <nanotube> SanityInAnarchy: well they do stress the disk somewhat... but generally, no....
[06:34] <Steven_> ....
[06:34] <SanityInAnarchy> yeah, selftest is all fine.
[06:34] <MikeChelen> Irakirashia: there is a whole-disk encryption option built into the alternate install cd
[06:34] <jongbergs> hi, what file that holds the network port numbers and its description
[06:35] <Irakirashia> bases on what MikeChelen
[06:35] <Irakirashia> based*
[06:35] <MikeChelen> Irakirashia: it uses dmcrypt and luks
[06:35] <MikeChelen> Irakirashia: there is also an option for home directory encryption, which uses ecryptfs
[06:35] <oliver3> I have a Kodak ESP 5 printer connected to a Windows machine, I'd like to use it on the Ubuntu machine. I can set it up as a network printer, up to the point of installing drivers (there aren't any). I was just wondering if there is any way I can add this printer using some kind of generic driver, or perhaps setup a virtual printer on Windows that will be compatible with Linux, and have that redirect print jobs to the real printer?
[06:35] <mom> Jordan_U, is the command ungz filename.gz?
[06:35] <MikeChelen> Irakirashia: it's possible to use one or the other, or both
[06:36] <Irakirashia> That are options that come with this iso -> xubuntu-9.10-desktop-amd64.iso ?
[06:36] <Irakirashia> MikeChelen ^
[06:36] <Blue1> oliver3: you can always redirect print to a file...
[06:36] <Jordan_U> mom: gunzip filename.gz
[06:37] <MikeChelen> Irakirashia: only home directory encryption is available on standard install cd, need the alternate for whole-disk
[06:37] <mcurran> So would the latest repo kernel be <IP_ADDRESS>.5 or <IP_ADDRESS> compared to others
[06:37] <oliver3> Blue1, I was considering that. Perhaps print it to a file in some kind of shared directory, and run a script on the Windows machine that periodically looks for files in the dir and prints/deletes them.  And It does not matter if I have another partition with another OS?
[06:38] <oliver3> Jordan_U, it doesn't, no Linux drivers.
[06:38] <mom> Jordan_U, still not showing up in abiword
[06:38] <Blue1> oliver3: is it a network printer?
[06:38] <oliver3> Blue1, yes
[06:39] <oliver3> Blue1, as in: Printer -> USB -> PC -> Network
[06:39] <MikeChelen> Irakirashia: it is probably okay, just be careful when setting up the disks, not to delete any other partitions
[06:39] <Blue1> oliver3: you should be able to print to a network printer for linux -- although I don't remember the setup for it.
[06:39] <oliver3> Blue1, the setup requires a driver for the printer.
[06:39] <Blue1> oliver3: yes so that it's formatted correctly -- what's the issue?
[06:40] <Irakirashia> MikeChelen the encryptation can be done after the installation? Or it has to be done before it. (these questions are for a friend)
[06:40] <oliver3> Blue1, there is no Linux driver for the printer.
[06:40] <dora_> mom, try 'fc-cache -f'
[06:40] <seanbrant> is there a way to forward incoming traffic to port 25 to another port
[06:40] <Jordan_U> mom: As a side note the forum for proggy fonts looks wonderfully maintained
[06:41] <mcurran> So is the latest stable kernel from kernel.org (<IP_ADDRESS>) newer than 2.6.31-15-generic or what?
[06:42] <Blue1> oliver3: ahh that's too bad - what kinda printer?
[06:42] <oliver3> Blue1, Kodak ESP 5 AiO
[06:42] <om26er> mcurran, yes
[06:42] <om26er> mcurran,  2.6.31-15 is <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:43] <MikeChelen> Irakirashia: whole disk has to be done before installation, at least to use the guided setup. there might be some other way that i don't know
[06:43] <mcurran> O.K. thanks 0m26er
[06:44] <mom> Jordan_U, mmm no nothing
[06:44] <Jordan_U> mcurran: Many patches from 31.6 are included though
[06:44] <mcurran> Is it safe to compile the plain kernel from kernel.org or do we need to stick with ubuntu ones?

[06:44] <mom> Jordan_U, yes it looks like most of the topics are about porn in the proggy font forum
[06:44] <Tartaros> one bot commanding the other, fun
[06:45] <Irakirashia> Okay MikeChelen, thank you very much :3
[06:45] <moymoy> netsplit.. yay!
[06:46] <Jordan_U> mcurran: Yes, there is also a "ppa" with pre-built mainline kernels ( no Ubuntu patches ) http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[06:46] <MikeChelen> Irakirashia: whole disk encryption is pretty reliable, and it seems quite fast, at least compared with home directory encryption (i still use both for security though)
[06:46] <dodobrown_> hello
[06:47] <dodobrown_> hey i know this is kinda dumb but how would i know if my wireless card is working
[06:47] <dodobrown_> when i type ifconfig it shows up
[06:47] <dodobrown_> is that enough
[06:48] <BeWop> Hello. I'm having problems connecting to the internet in ubuntu wirelessly and wired. I have a Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN for wireless, and a Realtek RTL9139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC for wired. My proirity is wireless, and I'm in WinXp right now on a different partition in order to get into this chat. Everything said will be written down in a notepad, then tried on Ubuntu. Thanks.
[06:48] <unop> dodobrown_, that usually is a good indicator it is working, yes
[06:48] <Alinn> Hi
[06:48] <Irakirashia> Okey MikeChelen, I'll have that on mind
[06:48] <dodobrown_> cool thanks
[06:48] <Alinn> How to i stop GDM?
[06:48] <dodobrown_> so i don't need to download any drivers or such
[06:48] <BeWop> Oh, ubuntu 9.10 btw
[06:48] <Jordan_U> mom: This looks promising: http://levelsofdetail.kendeeter.com/2007/02/using_proggy_fonts_in_ubuntu_g_1.html
[06:48] <om26er> !hi | Alinn
[06:49] <unop> dodobrown_, well, hopefully not - try it out first
[06:49] <dodobrown_> k thanks man
[06:49] <BeWop> Anyone?
[06:49] <mneptok> BeWop: System > Administration > Hardware drivers
[06:49] <BeWop> It says no propritary drivers are in use
[06:50] <BeWop> in the old distros, it provided a wireless proprietary driver.
[06:50] <mneptok> BeWop: then it sounds like the Broadcom does not have a free driver, nor does it have injectable firmware.
[06:50] <zetheroo> is it possible to have the wallpaper in Ubuntu change automatically every so often?
[06:50] <Jordan_U> BeWop: Do you know the exact chipset of the broadcom card?
[06:50] <dman> hey i just upgraded to karmic and gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-volume-applet seem to be using a lot of ram, anyone else come across this?
[06:51] <sam_> I have video files in .avi format. Is there software in the ubuntu/open source world that will burn it to a dvd?
[06:51] <mom> Jordan_U, yes i did that already, it keep the font at one size only
[06:51] <om26er> dman, rebooted?
[06:51] <bazhang> sam_, devede
[06:51] <Jordan_U> zetheroo: Yes, in fact Ubuntu comes with a set of space backrounds that cycle periodically
[06:51] <dman> om26er: yeah, keeps happening
[06:51] <sam_> ok
[06:51] <sam_> thanks
[06:51] <om26er> dman, updating system might help
[06:51] <sam_> sudo apt-get install devede?
[06:51] <dman> om26er: all current
[06:51] <BeWop> mneptok: Jordan_U: It's intel 9000/9100 is the computers, other than that, I don't know. ANd it had a driver for it in 9.04, so I don't see why it wouldn't in this one. Wired internet isn't working either, so that could be a problem.
[06:51] <mcurran> mneptok:  My broadcom supports injection (b43 has for a while now)
[06:51] <bazhang> sam_, correct
[06:51] <Jordan_U> mom: They are only made to be used at one size
[06:51] <om26er> dman, system specs?
[06:51] <Twitter> how can i voicechat in yahoo?
[06:51] <dman> om26er: gnome-settings daemon and volume are using about 17.5% of 4gb of ram accoring to top
[06:52] <BeWop> mcurran: did you have to do anything to get it working?
[06:52] <mneptok> mcurran: yes, those do. many Broadcoms do not.
[06:52] <om26er> Twitter, gyachi
[06:52] <Alinn> When i type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop output is : http://paste.ubuntu.com/325138/
[06:52] <dman> om26er: about 500mb each
[06:52] <TheCheeze> zetheroo, i have grown to like the gWallpapers app. you can set photos and directories and tell it how often to cycle
[06:52] <om26er> dman, using 64-bit install?
[06:52] <dman> om26er: core 2 duo, 4gb ram, 64bit karmic
[06:52] <Twitter> from where can i load gyachi?
[06:52] <zetheroo> TheCheeze: oh ok... sounds perfect
[06:52] <dman> om26er: yea
[06:52] <om26er> Twitter, sudo apt-get install gyachi
[06:52] <BeWop> mneptok: again, it was supported in 9.04, so you know...
[06:52] <zetheroo> TheCheeze: where is it?
[06:53] <mom> Jordan_U, so how would i do a presentation with a mono spaced programming font if it only goes up to 12pt?  You cant see 12pt very well on a slide
[06:53] <mcurran> yes - Usually it shows the proprietary driver you need in the Hardware Drivers app. - but you need to get b43-fwcutter and let it download and extract the firmware awlpast.o or something
[06:53] <TheCheeze> zetheroo, and the best part is no tray icons taking up space if you dont want. just start the daemon, tell it to run on startup, and close it out
[06:53] <om26er> Twitter, no its not in apt-get
[06:53] <bazhang> om26er, there is no package gyachi in karmic
[06:53] <om26er> Twitter, google it
[06:53] <Jordan_U> mom: There are other programming fonts

[06:53] <mom> Jordan_U, but any monospaced font s not scalable?
[06:53] <BeWop> mcurran: I don't have internet at all in ubuntu... but I bet I can play around with the wired and get it working.
[06:54] <Twitter> i googled it but couldnt install:(
[06:54] <BeWop> mcurran: because apparantly it's supported, it's just not connecting
[06:54] <Jordan_U> mom: Why do you want a non scalable font that you can use at any size?
[06:54] <Parsi> my graphic processor is 82945G Express, OS is ubuntu 9.10 x64, compiz freezes at startup:(
[06:54] <mom> Jordan_U, im looking for a nice looking slashed 0 scalable monospaced font
[06:54] <mcurran> You'll need to - Else you could try to run ndiswrapper but I don't think it's included by default, and I've never gotten it to work.
[06:54] <TheCheeze> bazhang, there is a gyachi package for karmic... just not x64
[06:55] <bazhang> TheCheeze, what is the package name
[06:55] <bazhang> !info gyachi
[06:55] <BeWop> mcurran: Alright, thanks. I'll play around with it a bit.
[06:55] <mom> Jordan_U, are all monospaced fonts non-scalable?
[06:55] <Jordan_U> mom: No
[06:55] <mcurran> BeWop:  You can check Hardware Drivers just to see if it recognizes the need for it - then you'll have to connect by wired and download
[06:55] <om26er> Twitter, sudo add-apt-repository ppa:loell/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gyachi
[06:55] <Alinn> I can't stop GDM. When i type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop output is : http://paste.ubuntu.com/325138/

[06:56] <mneptok> mom: TrueType and OpenType are scalable, regardless of spacing
[06:56] <mcurran> I don't know if ssd works but it's included for broadcom chips
[06:56] <mom> mneptok, proggy font had a ttf font but it didnt sacle at 16pt
[06:56] <mom> Jordan_U, no i want a slash, i dont like the dot
[06:57] <mcurran> stop gdm by killallgdm

[06:57] <Alinn> mcurran: How to i restart it?
[06:57] <mneptok> mom: if you read the Proggy Fonts website you will see that none of their TTFs are provided for more than a single size.

[06:58] <Alinn> mcurran: Thanks :)
[06:58] <Parsi> my graphic processor is 82945G Express, OS is ubuntu 9.10 x64, with compiz it freezes at startup:(
[06:59] <mcurran> Parsi:  There's a lot of people with that problem
[06:59] <om26er> mcurran, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop i think
[06:59] <Parsi> mcurran: any solution?
[06:59] <Alinn> mcurran: sudo killall gdm ==> gdm: no process found
[07:00] <mcurran> Then you must've already killed it
[07:00] <mcurran> Parsi - I don't know on that one
[07:00] <Jordan_U> mom: Look through the fonts in System > Preferences  > Appearance and find one you like
[07:00] <Parsi> ok
[07:00] <linuxguy2009> Hey guys Im using nero Linux 4 to add to a multisession CDR in Ubuntu 9.10 and the last burn added the files and verified. However the disk will not automount when inserted so I cant see any files on it, but I can see all the files in Neros browser. Might be a bad disk or something so how can I copy the files off of it to my HDD to reburn to a new CDR?
[07:01] <Jordan_U> mom: VL Gothic seems to fit your criterion but there are probably others you'd like better
[07:02] <pranav> How to format my mounted drive "sdb1" ?
[07:02] <pranav> what is the syntax ?
[07:02] <skysong> pranav: use gparted or fdisk /dev/sdb1
[07:03] <mcurran> linuxguy:  did you try to mount /dev/cdrom0 or /media/cdrom0
[07:04] <Jordan_U> pranav: You don't ever want to format a mounted partition, unmount it first
[07:04] <mcurran> mine is called /dev/sr0
[07:04] <mcurran> or /media/cdrom0
[07:04] <linuxguy2009> mcurran: Ah yes thank you that worked. Ive never really had to manually mount drives before so I forgot about being able to manually do it.
[07:04] <mcurran> both work
[07:05] <linuxguy2009> mcurran: I wonder why it stopped automounting it.
[07:05] <skysong> strange i thought ubuntu mounted cdrom drives automatically:s
[07:05] <mom> Jordan_U, looks like a japanese font
[07:05] <mcurran> There might be an option somewhere - you can also add that little mount app to your desktop panel - I find it convenient
[07:06] <dodobrown_> hey what repositories should i use ?
[07:06] <dodobrown_> how would i know if i have dapper
[07:06] <dodobrown_> or the kola
[07:06] <linuxguy2009> mcurran: Yeah I have the panel mount applet on my panel and my CDs all show up there automatically except this one multisession CD after the last burn.Strange.
[07:06] <mneptok> dodobrown_: lsb_release -a
[07:06] <dodobrown_> i downloaded the latest 9.10

[07:10] <Twitter> how can i voice chat in yahoo in ubuntu 8.04?????
[07:10] <wubzy> Need some advice on tweaking samba for performance. Only getting around 12mbps transfers and have been googling around a few days about it. I have ran network tests and hard drive tests to see if they were the problem and they don't seem to be. Iperf results of 95mbps and dd results of 1.775 secs for 736mb file.. Help is appreciated.
[07:10] <bazhang> TheMoebius, that was a fresh install or an upgrade, do you have grub or grub2
[07:10] <TheMoebius> bazhang:  but the how-to said not to use the 9.10 live cd because it uses ext4 so I used the 8.04 to reinstall grub
[07:11] <jongbergs> hi, what file ubuntu filesystem that holds the network port numbers and its description?
[07:11] <TheMoebius> bazhang:  was a fresh 9.10 install, but 8.04 probably overwrote it?
[07:11] <bazhang> TheMoebius, you went back to legacy-grub ?
[07:11] <Twitter> anyone there to help me??
[07:11] <mcurran> How do you manually compile the kernel source if it's not ubuntu - I tried this "sudo CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=1 AUTOBUILD=1 NOEXTRAS=1 fakeroot debian/rules binary-debs" but it says there's no such file or directory for debian/rules - I don't see a linux-core folder where i usually run this command either...
[07:11] <bazhang> Twitter, someone did help you; did you not try the gyachi suggested above?
[07:11] <TheMoebius> bazhang:  not by choice - just following the instructions in the how-to, which said not to use the 9.10 boot cd to restore grub
[07:12] <bazhang> TheMoebius, ah I see, wish you had read the grub2 wiki before doing that
[07:12] <Twitter> bazhang: i tried but not succeed:(
[07:12] <bazhang> !grub2

[07:14] <adminewb> !gpart
[07:15] <bazhang> Twitter, there was a PPA link for you to add. what exactly did you try and what were the *exact* errors you got
[07:15] <mcurran> Jordan_U:  Yes, make failed and now it said do make menuconfig, but that failed two because I don't have ncurses
[07:15] <wubzy> !gparted
[07:15] <Jordan_U> mcurran: Then try xconfig

[07:16] <Snausages> wubzy: I'm using it now
[07:16] <crohakon> bazhang, I know. I was wondering if anyone used it so I could ask them a few questions before I bother... if I bother at all.
[07:16] <Snausages> moving about 5.9MB/sec across a wired ethernet link
[07:16] <wubzy> Snausages, what transfer rates are you getting?
[07:16] <Parsi> guys, does 64-bit OS process video encoding faster than 32-bit OS?
[07:17] <bazhang> crohakon, best to be specific so folks can websearch for answers
[07:17] <wubzy> Snausages, ouch i'm getting around 12mbps and i think that is really slow
[07:17] <Jordan_U> Parsi: Yes
[07:17] <crohakon> bazhang, not looking for web searched answers, looking for opinions.. =)
[07:17] <ss_> I m using launchy on 9.10 Ubuntu, it launches applications fine except FireFox and Chromium... it just launches the .sh files in gedit.. any ideas to resolve?
[07:17] <bazhang> crohakon, then #ubuntu-offtopic as this is not a Polling channel
[07:17] <Parsi> Jordan_U: is the difference noticeable?
[07:18] <Snausages> wubzy: well I'm moving about 23GB of video from a netbook to an old mac server via samba.  The netbook is only 100baseT
[07:18] <Parsi> wubzy: i've 256kbps connection, what's your opinion?:))
[07:18] <azure_> i've installed vmware workstation using the bundle. when i start vmware, i get this error http://pastebin.com/d4ac51a4b
[07:18] <wubzy> Snausages, do you hook the netbook up to the wire?
[07:19] <Snausages> wubzy: yes, it's much faster to plug in than to use the wifi
[07:19] <wubzy> Snausages are you using linux to windows share or windows to linux share?
[07:19] <dodobrown_> do you have to update before searching for some things
[07:20] <dodobrown_> i'm trying to download kismet
[07:20] <Jordan_U> ss_: Did you install firefox or chromium manually ( not from a ppa ) ?
[07:20] <dodobrown_> me Z?
[07:20] <Snausages> wubzy: it's an old powerpc mac server, which is hosting a samba share.  The netbook is running ubuntu, logged into the mac as a samba client.
[07:20] <Twitter> none here to help me??
[07:20] <wubzy> Snausages, are you mounting the share with cifs instead of samba?
[07:20] <Snausages> wubzy: there's probably a dozen other ways I could have connected them but that's just the first thing that worked so I still use it. :)
[07:20] <bazhang> Twitter, answer my questions
[07:20] <mcurran> Jordan_U:  that just tells me to do it the same way as my original command which didn't recognize debian/rules
[07:21] <Snausages> wubzy: if I am I don't know about it

[07:23] <reZo> hi, my samba transfers are going slow, how can i speed them up, thanks.
[07:23] <bazhang> Twitter, open a browser and go to paste.ubuntu.com ; do the commands suggested to you above then paste the errors you got there into paste.ubuntu.com
[07:23] <Twitter> bazhang: ok
[07:23] <mcurran> NTLDR is a part of the vista bootloader
[07:24] <mcurran> i think
[07:24] <ghem> ive never had vista on there
[07:24] <FireCrotch> Trustisaweakness: I'm not familiar with "ubuntu tweak" but changing stuff like that typically requires you to log out and log back in for it to take effectr
[07:24] <mcurran> Kenisha:  Is grub in the boot sector or MBR?
[07:24] <bazhang> mcurran, that was a spambot
[07:25] <Trustisaweakness> FireCrotch, I did and still no change should i try a reboot
[07:25] <mcurran> oh
[07:25] <ghem> mcurran, how do I check?
[07:25] <mcurran> gparted
[07:25] <FireCrotch> Trustisaweakness: A reboot shouldn't be necessary - I would try restarting gdm first.  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[07:25] <Jordan_U> Kenisha: Did you try just running "sudo update-grub" to have XP added automatically?
[07:26] <ghem> Jordan_U, kenisha repeated my question, dunno why. and yes I did run that
[07:26] <bazhang> Jordan_U, its ghem not kenisha (spambot Klined)

[07:27] <dodobrown_> i know there use to be
[07:27] <ghem> mcurran, /boot/grub/grub.cfg is on /dev/sda1 if thats whay your were asking
[07:27] <Jordan_U> ghem: What happend with the entry 40_os-prober created?
[07:28] <mcurran> So you probably have grub in the boot sector and still have the windows partition set active
[07:28] <sclaha> hello anyone there?
[07:28] <Satinka> hello anyone there?
[07:28] <mcurran> use gparted and set the linux partition with the boot flag and then update grub or add an entry for xp
[07:29] <Eil> dodobrown_: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors
[07:29] <ghem> Jordan_U, 40_os-prober? im using grub2 if I didnt mention btw
[07:29] <archet45> is it possible to remote connect to simply the terminal in ubuntu?
[07:29] <archet45> specifically to disable compiz to allow vnc to work properly?
[07:29] <kevin__> How can I configure polipo and tor to start automatically.  I have  to start polipo in a terminal window before it will work?
[07:29] <Jordan_U> ghem: That's the script that adds menu entries for other os's when you run update-grub
[07:29] <mcurran> I always put grub on the linux partition and then set the linux partition active - I don't know why ubiquity doesn't give this option (automatic anyways)
[07:30] <Jordan_U> !ssh | archet45
[07:30] <dodobrown_> thanks so much man
[07:30] <Jordan_U> mcurran: Why would it matter if the linux partition has the boot flag?
[07:30] <ghem> mcurran, the linux partition already has boot flag
[07:30] <ardnew_> is there a netbook remix specific channel
[07:31] <DanaG> heh, I just thought of a perfect way to demonstrate the lagginess of notify-osd:
[07:31] <bazhang> ardnew_, this is it
[07:31] <DanaG> if your laptop has a "battery info" hotkey... you can press it tons of times... and thus tie up notify-osd for a really really really long time.
[07:31] <mcurran> when do you get the message for ntldr missing, do you select xp from grub menu?
[07:31] <mcurran> or when you turn on the computer
[07:31] <ghem> when I select it in boot menu
[07:31] <Jordan_U> mcurran: Grub ignores it, so it would only be the windows booloader that might use it and in that case I would think you would want the windoes partition to have the boot flag ( in fact that may be the problem )
[07:31] <usesec> derp
[07:31] <ardnew_> is there a way to remove the remix interface and just use the regular gnome desktop
[07:31] <usesec> derp
[07:31] <usesec> anyway
[07:31] <usesec> so
[07:31] <FloodBot4> usesec: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:32] <ardnew_> I like the gnome desktop, the remix menus are so awkward feeling
[07:32] <mcurran> Jordan_U that's only the case if GRUB is in the boot sector
[07:32] <ardnew_> big clumsy buttons
[07:32] <bazhang> ardnew_, netbook?
[07:32] <mcrandello> anyone know what to do for this:
[07:32] <Jordan_U> mcurran: Which it is by defaul
[07:32] <mcrandello> usb 1-5: device not accepting address 5, error -62?
[07:32] <mcurran> I wouldn't know that, because like I said, I don't put grub there
[07:32] <usesec> In gedit, how can I compare two documents and highlight their differences? They're text.
[07:32] <sam_> what is the package to configure compiz?
[07:32] <ardnew_> bazhang: yeah, but theres no option to use the gnome desktop
[07:33] <usesec> so
[07:33] <bazhang> sam_, ccsm
[07:33] <sam_> thanks
[07:33] <usesec> In gedit, how can I compare two documents and highlight their differences? They're text.
[07:33] <bazhang> ardnew_, how much disk space
[07:33] <bazhang> !ccsm | sam_
[07:33] <Brent> when i boot into ubuntu with 2 video cards plugged in (nvidia sli) i get no display, however if i take one card out, and run a single card everything is fine, how would i get it to run with SLI working?
[07:34] <ardnew_> bazhang: theres about 30gb of free space
[07:34] <ghem> Jordan_U, grub.cfg entrey from 30_osprober http://grub2xp.pastebin.com/m7b6af129
[07:34] <mcurran> Also, if you put grub in the boot sector, then you usually screw up any recovery partitions common manufacturers put on their computers (the shortcut keys won't work anymore) even if you restore mbr
[07:34] <usesec> In gedit, how can I compare two documents and highlight their differences? They're text.
[07:34] <bazhang> ardnew_, you could install ubuntu-desktop
[07:34] <kevin__> !tor | Kevin__
[07:34] <mcurran> sometimes you can chainload them or set them active, but in my experience they're toast
[07:34] <Jordan_U> ghem: Do you get any errors when you run update-grub?
[07:34] <ardnew_> bazhang: and that will let me use the normal gnome desktop similar to regular ubuntu?
[07:34] <artistxe> hello. I want to dual boot two distros on a single hd. where would the mount point be for the second distro ( or what would be the wise choice) ?
[07:35] <zoetrope6> Hi guys. I have a Toshiba TE2300 with Ubuntu Studio 9.04 installed. Recently my touchpad mouse stopped working. I plugged in a USB mouse and eventually that stopped working too. Then I plugged in an old school PS/2 mouse, and today that stopped working too. Any ideas what the problem could be?
[07:35] <bazhang> ardnew_, the very same
[07:35] <ghem> Jordan_U, no errors on update-grub2
[07:35] <ardnew_> excellent
[07:35] <mcurran> ghem:  Now you should check it out and see if there's an entry for XP
[07:36] <usesec> Help?!
[07:36] <usesec> In gedit, how can I compare two documents and highlight their differences? They're text.

[07:36] <Brent> When i turn my computer on and grub comes up, it shows my windows xp installation, but when i try to boot into it, it just gives me an "invalid signature" error, any ideas?
[07:36] <usesec> In gedit, how can I compare two documents and highlight their differences? They're text.
[07:36] <ardchoille> usesec: you can use meld for that
[07:36] <bazhang> usesec, what is that
[07:36] <zoetrope6> I just stuck in a live disk of regular Ubuntu (version 9.04) and in live mode the touchpad mouse doesn't work, but the USB mouse seems to be working..
[07:36] <usesec> what is meld, and how can I use it?
[07:36] <ghem> mcurran, grub.cfg has the entry from this: http://grub2xp.pastebin.com/d1fb43394
[07:36] <akjeff> good evening all
[07:36] <usesec> what is meld, and how can I use it?
[07:37] <ardchoille> usesec: sudo apt-get install meld
[07:37] <akjeff> I sure could use some help from some one if I could

[07:37] <zoetrope6> help! mouse issues ---  I have a Toshiba TE2300 with Ubuntu Studio 9.04 installed. Recently my touchpad mouse stopped working. I plugged in a USB mouse and eventually that stopped working too. Then I plugged in an old school PS/2 mouse, and today that stopped working too. Any ideas what the problem could be?
[07:38] <akjeff> can some one help me with some install issues
[07:38] <mcurran> I hope ubuntu and Mint start to use the graphics capabilities of grub2 soon
[07:38] <SwedeMike> !ask | akjeff
[07:38] <Jordan_U> ghem: Brent: Try asking in #grub
[07:38] <mcurran> akjeff just ask the question
[07:39] <Eil> zoetrope6: can you boot a livecd? If so, try that. If the mice don't work there, it sounds like the hardware dying
[07:39] <ardnew_> bazhang: so I apt-get install'd ubuntu-desktop, with no error, logged out and logged back in
[07:39] <ardnew_> do I need to edit something else
[07:39] <ardnew_> its still booting into the netbook interface
[07:39] <zoetrope6>  I just stuck in a live disk of regular Ubuntu (version 9.04) and in live mode the touchpad mouse doesn't work, but the USB mouse seems to be working..
[07:39] <Jordan_U> ghem: Do you have grub installed to the mbr?
[07:40] <ghem> Jordan_U, I dont understand your questions, explain?
[07:40] <akjeff> ok I am trying to Daul boot a laptop with ubuntu and when I did he install from windows and it told me to reboot .. I did and it stopped after the second line of code and will not go any ferther
[07:40] <sclaha> how can i voice chat in ubuntu 8.04 ???
[07:40] <mcurran> what model laptop are you using zoe
[07:40] <zoetrope6> in previous attempts it didn't do that, no mouses would work. but now it seems to work in live mode.. why would my mouse suddenly die like that?
[07:40] <Jordan_U> zoetrope6: Have you tried a 9.10 LiveCD?
[07:40] <zoetrope6> Toshiba TE2300
[07:40] <bazhang> ardnew_, you would need to choose it in login options
[07:40] <ardnew_> I see, brb
[07:41] <akjeff> it gives me the daul boot option but then it stopps in the middle of loading the generic install
[07:41] <zoetrope6> no this is actually where all the problems started to occur -- i installed 9.10 ubuntu studio and there were errors - for memory it related to MS Core Fonts. So it didn't install properly. I ended up reinstalling 9.04 (ubuntu studio). Shortly after the mouse problems started
[07:41] <azure_> anyone can tell me how to install kernel-devel package as mentioned here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware/Workstation
[07:41] <ska178> I just installed a fresh copy of karmic..i installed wine then copied an installed directory of world of warcraft..i'm gettin an access denied error i didn't encounter in the previous release of ubuntu..can someone help?

[07:44] <ska178> i just installed karmic and i put wow on it just like i did with the former ubuntu release..i'm gettin an access denied error i haven't experienced before. can someone help?
[07:44] <ardnew_> im nosing around /etc/gdm but I dont really know what im looking at
[07:44] <Jordan_U> ghem: You said that your linux partiton had the boot flag set, try removing the boot flag from your linux partition and adding it to your windows partition
[07:45] <daliang> which network-manage version can work now? i have insall 0.8....but still can't connet to net work use ppp?but there is no such problem in win and if i use pppoeconf.

[07:45] <bazhang> ardnew_, hang on let me check
[07:45] <zoetrope6> any ideas???
[07:45] <ghem> Jordan_U, trying
[07:45] <ardnew_> bazhang: I dont mind reading something if you can point me to some docs
[07:46] <mcurran> So can you put debian or ubuntu on the new motorola droid phone or what
[07:46] <akjeff> so did I like get put on ignore?
[07:46] <artistxe> trying to find a good site for partitioning help. any ideas ?
[07:47] <ghem> Jordan_U, that gives me the "ntldr is missing       ctrl-alt-del to restart"
[07:47] <mcurran> artistxe - gparted makes it pretty simple looking no?
[07:47] <akjeff> has anyone had issues with installing ubuntu on a laptop with a radion 200m video card
[07:47] <Jordan_U> ghem: Are you sure the devicemap is neccisarry?
[07:48] <artistxe> mcurran . not for me. trying to figure out where to mount a second distro on a single hd.
[07:48] <Jordan_U> !partitions | artistxe
[07:48] <bazhang> ardnew_, I see something about desktop-switcher and maximus, but only for intrepid not karmic, will keep looking
[07:49] <bazhang> ardnew_, ie in the system preferences switch desktop modes
[07:49] <Jordan_U> ghem: Windows is on the first partition of the first disk so try without the drivemap
[07:50] <ghem> Jordan_U, not sure
[07:50] <mcurran> artistxe - I usually make another extended partition with a ext4 and swap partitions inside
[07:50] <artistxe> have been there and read through that. still does not let me know. at what point do I mount another os ( in opt...in dev ... ?)
[07:51] <artistxe> mcurran . yes. but on one hd there can only be one /      afaik
[07:51] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1308792 ardnew_ this may provide some clues

[07:54] <akjeff> are there any tech savy folks here that can give me some suggestions on my problem
[07:54] <bazhang> akjeff, detail your specific issues
[07:54] <mcurran> Any other distro install would be under /media/<drive name> or /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1 /dev/whatever
[07:54] <bradpitt> hi, i get error everytime i reboot the computer, since the error is right after bios i record the video.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eF_QCCaIBPk . thank you before
[07:54] <bazhang> akjeff, has anyone etc etc wont get many responses
[07:55] <mcurran> Once you're in that distro, it'll still call / by it's own root partition
[07:55] <maxwell> Problem: running Xubuntu 9.03 on my system. I just installed LXDE and am LOVING it (REALLY noticeably faster, it's like my system is on speed). Anyways, I need to figure out how to get keyboard switching to work so that I can continue to use this. I want to switch between the us alternate international (former us international) and standard Russian layouts. Any ideas?
[07:56] <bazhang> maxwell, there is not a 9.03
[07:56] <ghem> Jordan_U, when I boot without the drivemap thing after I select xp in boot menu it just a black screen. theres a blinking white line in top left as if I could enter text, but I cant.
[07:56] <maxwell> Or 9.04
[07:56] <Trustisaweakness> well I dont seem to have any luck in removing the supend and hibarnate from shutdown menu. and I am all out of ideas
[07:56] <akjeff> I just installed the ubuntu on a latop top daul booting windows xt did the instll through windows when it told me to reboot I get about 2 lines in the the restart and the system locks up and will not continue
[07:56] <maxwell> Whichever one it was.
[07:56] <maxwell> That is still slightly less helpful than I was looking for there though bazhang :P
[07:56] <mcurran> ghem:  You probably need a chainload option in grub2
[07:56] <bazhang> akjeff, this is a wubi install?
[07:57] <ThatGuyOverThere> I'm having trouble with my wifi in Ubuntu 9.04.
[07:57] <akjeff> a what ?
[07:57] <bazhang> maxwell, use iBus
[07:57] <ghem> mcurran, I have     chainloader +1
[07:57] <maxwell> bazhang: what is iBus?
[07:57] <bazhang> akjeff, installed from inside windows
[07:57] <akjeff> I installed using the windows windows Option from the website
[07:57] <Parsi> if I add this  ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates to software source, can i get latest intel drivers?
[07:57] <akjeff> yes
[07:57] <bazhang> maxwell, ah sorry that would be scim for 9.04
[07:57] <ThatGuyOverThere> Help, anyone?
[07:58] <Dantonic> !vnc
[07:58] <maxwell> bazhang: I have never been able to figure out SCIM.
[07:58] <bazhang> maxwell, iBus is taking over for scim in 9.10
[07:58] <akjeff> and it told me to reboot and when I did it went about 2 lines of code on screen and stopped
[07:58] <mcurran> Welcome to linux people with partiton and booting issues - I'm going to bed - Don't give up, it'll all come to you eventually.
[07:58] <bazhang> akjeff, sounds like a bad install though I truthfully know very little about wubi installs
[07:59] <ghem> mcurran, thanks for help
[07:59] <akjeff> has there ever been known issues with ATI video cards...
[07:59] <maxwell> bazhang: I know, this 9.04 setup is temporary because my video card has no supported drivers for 9.10, I am hoping to buy a new one SOON, I put out an email to everyone in my Loco to see if anyone has anything up for grabs/sale.
[07:59] <bazhang> akjeff, any reason not to go for a real dual boot install
[07:59] <ThatGuyOverThere> Someone? Anyone? Wifi help?
[08:00] <bazhang> ThatGuyOverThere, what is the exact issue. Please give a lot of details
[08:00] <frogzoo> how to change the nautilus default application for .pdfs ?
[08:00] <akjeff> whats the difference ... downloading the install ISO an making the disk?
[08:00] <Dantonic> hi I'm trying to figure out how to setup a vnc server so that I can access my desktop remotely through the internet.  Can I do this with Vino?
[08:00] <ThatGuyOverThere> I'm not sure if my computer is recognizing the wireless card, for starters.
[08:00] <ThatGuyOverThere> But I don't know exactly what the problem is.
[08:00] <bazhang> akjeff, well its faster, not  a file inside of windows, amongst others
[08:01] <knoppies> Dantonic, I think so, but you will need to forward ports on your router, and set up a DDNS on your PC. you could also try tightvnc, but that uses an Xserver other than 0
[08:01] <bazhang> akjeff, you can also just point the iso to a usb stick and run it from there
[08:01] <bazhang> akjeff, using unetbootin
[08:01] <ghem> Jordan_U, do you have any ideas, or should I try to figure out how I can boot using an xp usb or somwthing?
[08:01] <Dantonic> knoppies, thanks, what ports do I need to forward?  I have ssh configured, so I have port 22 forwarded for that...
[08:01] <akjeff> I will download the ISO file and try it from there and see if that fix's it
[08:02] <ThatGuyOverThere> Is there anyway I can figure out better what the problem is?
[08:02] <bazhang> ThatGuyOverThere, what is this a usb wifi or pci
[08:02] <ThatGuyOverThere> It's PCI.
[08:02] <knoppies> Dantonic, I think you can choose what ports it uses, have a look in the vino setup. Just remember when logging in with your IP/domain name, to include the port.
[08:02] <bazhang> lspci in terminal --> paste.ubuntu.com ThatGuyOverThere
[08:03] <ThatGuyOverThere> A'ight. Be right back. I gotta go downstairs to get to it.
[08:03] <Jordan_U> ghem: I don't have any other ideas but #grub is very helpfull when there is a developer around so try again at a different time tomorrow
[08:03] <sinthetek> anyone know much about optimizing hd performance? my mom's sata drive seems considerably slower than it should be
[08:03] <ska178> I'm trying to play wow but I get an access denied error due to permissions...how do i change the permissions to be able to play this game correctly?
[08:03] <ghem> Jordan_U, ok thanks
[08:04] <knoppies> ska178, chmod I think. do a man page of it.
[08:04] <Jordan_U> ghem: np
[08:04] <ska178> knoppies, ty
[08:04] <bazhang> ska178, checked the appdb yet? asked in #winehq ?
[08:04] <bazhang> !appdb | ska178
[08:04] <sinthetek> i cannot tell if dma is active or not though the sata_via driver is loaded
[08:04] <knoppies> ska178, no problem, I just hope its the right command.
[08:05] <ska178> bazhang: i did, it doesn't mention anything. this isn't a wine problem though..just an ubuntu problem. my permissions aren't set right
[08:06] <bradpitt>  does anybody had this problem with ubuntu? :( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eF_QCCaIBPk .
[08:06] <sinthetek> shouldn't a 7200rpm sata drive be able to write faster than 2MB per minute?
[08:06] <bazhang> bradpitt, please give details and not a youtube video
[08:06] <knoppies> sinthetek, yea, you should get almost 30mb/s on it.
[08:06] <knoppies> sinthetek, is it on a USB adapter? I know that can slow it down a little, but you should still get 10mB/s on it.
[08:06] <adminewb> !gpart
[08:06] <ThatGuyOverThere> lspci did nothing.
[08:07] <ThatGuyOverThere> I feel like that's a bad sign.
[08:07] <bazhang> ThatGuyOverThere, nothing was shown as the output of lspci ?
[08:07] <Guest43172> would anyone be intersted in helping me establish a wireless connection through terminal?
[08:07] <ThatGuyOverThere> Correct.
[08:07] <Dantonic> knoppies, I have no options really inthe vino setup.  It tells me the desktop is only reachable over the local network, and I have no option to change that or select ports...
[08:08] <bazhang> ThatGuyOverThere, that seems unlikely to say the least
[08:08] <bazhang> L = lspci
[08:08] <knoppies> Dantonic, then I dont know. You should be able to find the default port on the internet somewhere. I would also look for a tutorial on setting it up.
[08:09] <ThatGuyOverThere> Hrm. Was it supposed to load a file in nano or gedit or something? Or was it supposed to display something in the terminal? Because it just gave me another prompt as soon as I hit enter.
[08:09] <adminewb> gpart is a risky disk partition table recovery tool; anyone experienced with it, or have specific cause to distrust?
[08:09] <Dantonic> knoppies, thanks I've been reading the tutorial, and I cant really make heads or tails of it, it lists options that are not available to me.  Thanks anyway.
[08:09] <bradpitt> bazhang : everytime i reboot my computer ubuntu won't load, sometimes i see grub sometimes i don't. and instead of usplash it always ends with _ blinking. the video show more details
[08:09] <newbee> helo wanted to install via driver (cn700) for the 28-16.21 kernel but failed
[08:10] <ThatGuyOverThere> What do you mean by L = lspci? Are you saying the first character is a lowercase "L"? That's what I entered.
[08:10] <sinthetek> knoppies no usb adapter. how can i more accurately test/verify drive speed?
[08:11] <sinthetek> i am currently testing by sending large files over the network and looking at the xfer rate :P
[08:11] <bazhang> ThatGuyOverThere, into the terminal and there was null output ? your system has zero pci devices?
[08:11] <gfadda> bradpitt you know I have the same problem lol, the only way for me to get in is to go recovery and startx
[08:11] <sinthetek> i forgot to consider fs differences though
[08:11] <ThatGuyOverThere> I guess so.
[08:11] <bazhang> ThatGuyOverThere, try lsusb
[08:11] <knoppies> sinthetek, Im not sure. I know one of the things that affect the drive speed is the (I forgot what its called, sorry Im tired) selection when you originally format the drive.
[08:11] <ThatGuyOverThere> What was the exact command supposed to be? I typed in sudo lspci.
[08:11] <gfadda> Anyone be able to help with dhclient no working leases in persistent database for wireless network?
[08:12] <sinthetek> but basically sending to karmic system with sata goes at about half the speed as sending in the other direction
[08:12] <bradpitt> gfadda : did you see the video? and how do you fix it?
[08:12] <ThatGuyOverThere> I am 100% it's not a USB device. I have only two USB ports and the only one with anything in it connects to my keyboard and mouse.
[08:12] <knoppies> sinthetek, Im not sure what else would make it particularly slow. If its a windows formated drive (NTFS) then it might be that the drive needs defraging.
[08:12] <gfadda> bradpitt, I didnt fix it, i just startx after booting through recovery mode in Grub
[08:12] <bazhang> ThatGuyOverThere, well you may have typo'd then : lspci
[08:12] <Il__Matteo> hi everybody! 2 simple questions for you: 1) how do i set the "windows" key to open Applications menu? 2) how do i set the key combo "windows" + m to show desktop? thanks!!! :)
[08:13] <knoppies> sinthetek, If the drive is NTFS, then Im not sure how fast the ubuntu ntfs is.
[08:13] <ThatGuyOverThere> It's LSPCI, in lowercase, right?
[08:13] <bazhang> Correct
[08:13] <bradpitt> gfadda : and do you have to startx everytime you rebooting? or just once?
[08:14] <ThatGuyOverThere> I'll go check... but I'm certain that's what I typed... be right back.
[08:14] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, if you have compiz setup, then you can use that to set up the combo 'windows' (aka SUPER) + m to show desktop. As for the SUPER key opening up applications, not sure. You can install gnome-do or use the <alt>-F2
[08:14] <gfadda> bradpitt, everytime.... also I was getting errors loading synaptics for my touchpad but the system did a disk check after booting from the primary drive 30 times and seemed to fix that stuff
[08:15] <sinthetek> knoppies nope, no nfs. ext4 (the system that is writing faster is ext3). have wdc sata hd's in both systems. slower one is via vt6420, faster one is sis182
[08:15] <sinthetek> ntfs*
[08:15] <Il__Matteo> thanks knoppies
[08:15] <knoppies> sinthetek, not sure then. sorry.
[08:15] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, glad I could help.
[08:16] <ThatGuyOverThere> Yeah, I entered lspci... Nothing.
[08:16] <ThatGuyOverThere> Just for kicks I tried lsusb too... That did give me an output, but no wireless card.
[08:16] <sinthetek> hdparm -I doesn't seem to list write speeds or anything like that
[08:16] <sinthetek> for either of the drives
[08:17] <bazhang> ThatGuyOverThere, well absent any such info there is no way possible to check/troubleshoot your devices sans a look in the users manual
[08:17] <sinthetek> ahh, here we go. karmic's cache/buffer size is smaller
[08:17] <bradpitt> gfadda : that was annoying. we really need to find the answer for this problem.
[08:17] <sinthetek> half the buffer, half the xfer speeds
[08:18] <ThatGuyOverThere> Well, I know the PCI card must be THERE because I can see wireless networks... just can't connect.
[08:18] <sinthetek> anyone know if that can be adjusted? her drive is bigger so i'd think it's at least slightly newer and should ahve the same capabilities (unless the driver is crappier for via and that buffer/cache size is specified in the driver or something)
[08:18] <gfadda> bradpitt, I think 9.1 is experiencing all kinds of boot issues although I have not tried a fresh install myself
[08:19]  * sinthetek modinfo's via_sata
[08:19] <bazhang> ThatGuyOverThere, what does ifconfig show
[08:19] <sinthetek> err...sata_via*
[08:19] <ThatGuyOverThere> I'll let you know.
[08:19] <smwn> I dual boot Windows and ubuntu....Ubuntu is reporting 'many bad sectors' on my hard drive but i did a chkdsk under windows and it says 0, do i have bad sectors or is ubuntu seeing something else?
[08:20] <bradpitt> gfadda : i think so :) in my experience.. hardy, intrepid and jaunty never had those problem.
[08:21] <adminewb> ... looking for people with some disaster recovery experience in a grub multi-boot setting, where an extended disk partition's chain of logical drives is corrupted
[08:21] <knoppies> smwn, the bad sectors would be on your ubuntu partition, the windows chkdsk would have only checked the windows partition.
[08:21] <smwn> oh
[08:21] <Parsi> how can i make sure my graphic is installed properly?
[08:21] <smwn> are they fixable?
[08:22] <soreau> Parsi: Which graphics card do you have?
[08:22] <Parsi> soreau: intel 82945G Express
[08:22] <knoppies> smwn, not sure. I would get as much of that data onto a safe HDD (there is a chance that if the data is corrupt it will copy it across corrupt)
[08:22] <sinthetek> looks like hdparm -t is for more accurate testing
[08:22] <Il__Matteo> knoppies, I found the "keyboard shortcuts" option in system >> preferences. The applications menu command is currently alt+f1, but i don't manage to turn it just to the SUPER key. the SUPER + m combo doesn't work, even if i associated it to the proper command (focus on desktop). other combos work (but they're not so easy to remember!), while SUPER + m just graphically inverts screen colors (black becomes white, white becomes b
[08:22] <Il__Matteo> lack, red becomes green....)
[08:22] <soreau> Parsi: What is the output of:  glxinfo|grep renderer
[08:22] <knoppies> smwn, or if you already have a backup, then keep that. And then reformat that partition.
[08:22] <smwn> is there a program that will test the drive?
[08:23] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, do you know what compiz is?
[08:23] <Parsi> soreau: OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 945G GEM 20090712 2009Q2 RC3
[08:23] <smwn> like in terms of the physical damage
[08:23] <Il__Matteo> ehm... no. i'm a newbie.
[08:23] <knoppies> smwn, not that I know of, keep asking, or have a google search.
[08:23] <ThatGuyOverThere> http://paste.ubuntu.com/325173/
[08:23] <soreau> Parsi: That is a good indication they are working correctly. Are you having a problem?
[08:23] <ThatGuyOverThere> There's ifconfig.
[08:23] <sinthetek> difference isn't as bad as over the network but still substantial
[08:23] <sinthetek> 43mb/s vs 55mb/s
[08:24] <Parsi> soreau: before this, with compiz enabled it froze after logon
[08:24]  * sinthetek looks at ext3 vs ext4 write-speed benchmarks to see if it could account for the difference
[08:24] <bazhang> ThatGuyOverThere, is the wifi encrypted or not
[08:24] <soreau> Parsi: compiz should work fine with that card. Which version of ubuntu?
[08:24] <Parsi> soreau: i didn't tried installing compiz after this update
[08:24] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, compiz is (in short) a window decorator, that makes your windows look AWSOME and adds animations to your windows. But it has some other good features as well, such as multiple desktops (not monitors) and many <alt><tab> features
[08:24] <Parsi> soreau: 9.10
[08:25] <ThatGuyOverThere> You mean the network? WEP encryption.
[08:25] <ThatGuyOverThere> However, it doesn't connect to unencrypted networks either.
[08:25] <C-S-B> wep? is there any point?
[08:25] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, go System -> administration -> synaptic package manager. Then search for compiz settings, then install the package that sounds like compiz-advanced-settings manager
[08:25] <Il__Matteo> ok, thanks, i didn't know how to find it! :°
[08:25] <soreau> Parsi: Well if it does freeze X or the machine, it is an indication of some driver or X bug, most likely the driver
[08:25] <smwn> After doing a google search it looks like its a common problem with ubuntu 9.10, I think its false reporting.
[08:26] <ThatGuyOverThere> C-S-B, I'm not the network administrator, so it's not really up to me.
[08:26] <Parsi> soreau: let me try compiz
[08:26] <smwn> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1300590
[08:26] <C-S-B> ThatGuyOverThere, fair enough, it just makes me shudder when I hear wep.
[08:26] <sky_> how can download ubuntu one
[08:26] <ThatGuyOverThere> Well, I haven't had my identity stolen yet, so I'm not too worried. :)
[08:26] <adminewb> knoppies, speaking of compiz eye candy, I understand that the ATI Catalyst Control Center for Linux is able to do multiple monitors with ATI display adapters; does it support not using the fglrx xorg driver?
[08:26] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, once compiz settings manager is installed, you can find it under system -> preferences -> compiz settings
[08:27] <sinthetek> hmm yeah, ext4 should be doing better across the board
[08:27] <sinthetek> gotta be a driver problem/option it seems
[08:27] <soreau> adminewb: amdcccle is exclusively for fglrx
[08:27] <sinthetek> maybe a bios setting?
[08:27] <knoppies> adminewb, I have no idea, Out of all my attempts to get multiple monitors working, I only got it working once, and even then it was rather primitive and out of proportion.
[08:27] <soreau> adminewb: For the open driver, you would use xrandr or Sys>Prefs>Display
[08:27] <adminewb> soreau, thanks
[08:28] <ThatGuyOverThere> You were saying, bazhang? Encryption?
[08:28] <bradpitt> does anybody can help me? everytime i reboot my computer ubuntu won't load, sometimes i see grub sometimes i don't. and instead of usplash it always ends with _ blinking. i upload 30 seconds video to give you more details http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eF_QCCaIBPk. thanks :)
[08:28] <bazhang> ThatGuyOverThere, yes?
[08:28] <ThatGuyOverThere> WEP encryption. Is that what you wanted to know?
[08:29] <adminewb> soreau, i tried the standard driver to setup multiple monitors, and it was fairly contorted to get less than optimal results
[08:29] <soreau> bradpitt: Is this a clean install or upgrade from an older version of ubuntu?
[08:29] <soreau> adminewb: Are your screens the same?
[08:29] <bradpitt> soreau : it's clean install.
[08:30] <soreau> bradpitt: Does it work ok with the live cd?
[08:30] <knoppies> bradpitt, I have no idea what your problem is, but I would fix it by: Plugging that HDD into another machine as a slave disk, getting all the data out of your home folder, then doing a complete clean install on it. See if the problem persists.
[08:30] <adminewb> soreau, no, the screens are different and the adapters are different but both ATI
[08:30] <ThatGuyOverThere> WEP encryption. Is that what you wanted to know, bazhang?
[08:30] <soreau> adminewb: Multi-video cards?
[08:30] <ThatGuyOverThere> It just occurred to me that you might not have been responding because I wasn't typing your username.
[08:30] <adminewb> soreau, sort of: one's an IGP
[08:31] <soreau> adminewb: Ah, I dont think this type of setup is supported yet
[08:31] <adminewb> soreau: perhaps, but i did get it working somewhat
[08:31] <Il__Matteo> knoppies, yeah, the SUPER + m combo now works!!! compiz was already installed but had a "negative colours" function already linked to SUPER + m combo, so that it had higher priority over user-set shortcuts
[08:31] <bazhang> ThatGuyOverThere, correct, am a bit busy at the moment
[08:32] <ThatGuyOverThere> I see.
[08:32] <soreau> adminewb: It is possible to get it working and the open radeon driver folks are working to improve the situation
[08:32] <bradpitt> soreau : i try with live cd several to make sure that there's no problem with my hardware. and live cd seems ok.
[08:32] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, yea, I thought that was the case.
[08:32] <soreau> bradpitt: That is strange..
[08:32] <jongbergs> hi, what file in ubuntu filesystem that holds the network port numbers and its description?
[08:32] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, play around with compiz, it is truly amazing. For some inspiration search up compiz on youtube.
[08:33] <Il__Matteo> thanks, but i like my ubuntu quite linear and clean, i don't like special fx ;)
[08:33] <soreau> bradpitt: If it works with the live cd, it should work the same after you install it to your machine if you performed the installation correctly
[08:33] <Parsi> soreau: it freeze the machine:(
[08:33] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, you look at gnome-do? its another awesome (and very sophisticated) application starter.
[08:33] <adminewb> soreau: anyway, from the results I've seen it leaves the impression that a more regular configuration would have the same undesirable effects I noticed.
[08:34] <Il__Matteo> knoppies, let me have a try! :)
[08:34] <soreau> Parsi: You can ask in #intel-gfx, I am not sure what to tell you other than that it should work. Note if you do ask there you will need to remain patient
[08:34] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, the gnome-do shotcut is <SUPER><SPACE> you can install it using the synaptic package manager. Search in the preferences for plugins.
[08:35] <Parsi> soreau: I asked them, someone said to use xorge-edger, i did, but no chance
[08:35] <soreau> Parsi: Can you run programs like glxgears and glxinfo?
[08:35] <Parsi> soreau: yes
[08:36] <Parsi> both
[08:36] <bradpitt> soreau : yes i was thinking the same.
[08:36] <colloguy> Every few minutes, my laptop's HD power cycles. What is causing this? According to hdparm -I, APM is disabled ...
[08:36] <soreau> Parsi: If you use xorg-edgers, you will want to install all components and latest kernel
[08:36] <soreau> Parsi: Namely, libdrm, mesa and xorg-video-intel (or whatever ubuntu calls it)
[08:37] <Parsi> soreau: i think i've them
[08:37] <adminewb> someone experienced with the gpart partition hacking utility? not to be confused with gparted
[08:37] <soreau> Parsi: So this happens on default karmic install?
[08:37] <Parsi> soreau: yes:(
[08:37] <Il__Matteo> knoppies, I installed the packages but <SUPER><Space> combo seams to be dead :°
[08:37] <kikokos> hi
[08:38] <Parsi> soreau: glxinfo output
[08:38] <Parsi> http://pastie.org/709716
[08:38] <soreau> Parsi: In that case your best course of action would be to file a bug
[08:38] <loquitus> My synaptic apt-get command gets a lot of errors lately and it seems to be related to access denied errors with mysql. Yes -- I did reset some passwords on my db recently. but what's going on here?
[08:38] <Il__Matteo> knoppies, found it! :D
[08:38] <Parsi> soreau: http://pastie.org/709716
[08:38] <soreau> Parsi: It should work.
[08:38] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, you have to start gnome-do first I think. <alt>-F2 then type in gnome do, then select the gnome do in the list.
[08:38] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, ok. good.
[08:38] <Il__Matteo> sorry for my sloppiness!
[08:39] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, no problem.
[08:39] <soreau> Parsi: But the intel drivers have gone through some major changes over the past months and the latest code should work too
[08:40] <soreau> Parsi: Does xvinfo work ok?
[08:40] <jwx> hi, how do I apply alternative gtk color scheme from outside gnome.. is there a standalone app available?
[08:40] <ThatGuyOverThere> Alright, I'll worry about this later. I'ma go play Call of Duty.
[08:40] <Parsi> soreau: http://pastie.org/709719
[08:41] <Parsi> soreau: how to obtain latest intel driver?
[08:41] <jargal> hi all
[08:41] <soreau> Parsi: On ubuntu, the xorg-edgers repo is your best bet to get all latest code, but it should be coupled with latest kernel as well
[08:41] <soreau> Parsi: Which kernel are you using?
[08:42] <Parsi> soreau: dunno:( how can I find out kernel version?
[08:42] <usesec> |||||

[08:43] <ordicollege_> svp
[08:43] <Parsi> soreau: how to?
[08:43] <Parsi> where is X log?
[08:44] <soreau> Parsi: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[08:44] <Il__Matteo> knoppies, and what about opening a certain application onto a certain desktop space? i lurked through italian ubuntu forum, but i found no solutions :°
[08:44] <Parsi> soreau: http://pastie.org/709721
[08:45] <Flannel> Il__Matteo: You're looking for devilspie
[08:45] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, not sure. Normally they just open on the current workspace. You can move them by either right clicking on their title bar, or holding <shift><ctrl><alt><arrowKEY> where arrowKEY is the direction you want to go.
[08:46] <A-Rishi> I want to use a 3gp video format in pitivi. How do I convert it to another format so that I can use it?
[08:48] <Il__Matteo> knoppies, i already do it, but it's lame! :) i want my ubuntu to do it automatically on start.
[08:48] <soreau> Parsi: Looks good afaict. Which resolution do you use?
[08:48] <Parsi> soreau: the default
[08:48] <Il__Matteo> Flannel, i'll try it
[08:48] <Parsi> soreau: 1280x1024
[08:48] <knoppies> Il__Matteo, ok, Im not sure how. I hope you work that one out.
[08:49] <knoppies> Flannel, Il__Matteo maybe i should look into devilspie
[08:49] <soreau> Parsi: Everything seems good. Can you try: compiz.real --replace move resize decoration wobbly
[08:50] <Parsi> soreau: I'm loged in with GNOME falsafe
[08:50] <timClicks> does anyone have recommendations on how to produce print-acceptable (300dpi) screenshots?
[08:50] <Il__Matteo> Flannel, where do i find it after installation?
[08:50] <soreau> Parsi: Why?
[08:50] <Flannel> Il__Matteo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Devilspie
[08:50] <jargal> ubuntu using warcraft 3 play very slow help me
[08:50] <Parsi> soreau: because GNOME it locks up!
[08:50] <timClicks> i'm not sure that's that even possible, since monitors display at 96.. but I thought someone might be able to help
[08:51] <soreau> Parsi: Can you try starting normal session after this:  sudo chmod -x /usr/bin/compiz.real
[08:52] <dodobrown_> hey
[08:52] <dodobrown_> does the aircrack-ng come with airplay-ng
[08:53] <soreau> dodobrown_: Yes
[08:53] <APERSON> if I copy a system, is there anything else I have to do other than change the uuid in grub and fstab?
[08:53] <soreau> APERSON: Not really..
[08:53] <dodobrown_> when i type airplay-ng nothing happens
[08:54] <soreau> dodobrown_: aireplay-ng
[08:54] <soreau> dodobrown_: Ask in #aircrack-ng
[08:54] <APERSON> soreau, you don't sound entirely positive :)
[08:54] <Parsi1> soreau: locked up again
[08:54] <Il__Matteo> Flannel, i installed it and launch it from alt f2, but nothing happens
[08:54] <timClicks> dodobrown_: it needs some configuration & tweaking
[08:54] <soreau> APERSON: Well there are a lot of factors involved, but on the same machine it should work
[08:55] <dodobrown_> =)
[08:55] <soreau> Parsi1: So it is not a compiz issue
[08:55] <dodobrown_> i'm so stupid
[08:55] <soreau> Parsi1: You should file a bug against ubuntu reporting this
[08:55] <dodobrown_> i was typing airplay instead or aire
[08:55] <Parsi1> soreau: after runnign "compiz.real --replace move resize decoration wobbly" it locked up
[08:55] <dodobrown_> =\

[08:57] <Parsi1> soreau: oh! it's difficult :(
[08:57] <soreau> Parsi1: What did you install from xorg-edgers repo exactly?
[08:58] <Parsi1> soreau: xorg-driver-intel
[08:58] <Parsi1> soreau: something like that
[08:58] <soreau> Parsi1: That is not enough

[09:00] <Dantonic> Anyone know how to use tightvnc?
[09:00] <Dantonic> !tightvnc
[09:00] <soreau> Dantonic: What are you trying to do?
[09:00] <BobJonkman> I've used tightvnc -- what do you need to do?
[09:00] <febra> thank u
[09:00] <Dantonic> I'm very new to vnc.. vino seems to not work in 9.04 read several threads about it... just tryint to connect remotely
[09:01] <APERSON> it's almost like my disks were mounted read-only - I can't write or do anything
[09:01] <Dantonic> so I did apt-get install tightvnc
[09:01] <Dantonic> then ran it
[09:01] <Dantonic> and setup password etc...
[09:01] <APERSON> but on restart, everything is fine again
[09:01] <Dantonic> now how do I connect from another computer? is it all setup and ready to go?
[09:01] <APERSON> until it happens again, that is
[09:01] <Dantonic> what do I use as server address
[09:02] <Dantonic> cause localhost@ip doesn't work
[09:02] <soreau> Dantonic: Look in Sys>Prefs>Remote Desktop and you will need to know the IP addresses of the box you are trying to connect to
[09:02] <knoppies> Dantonic, if you connecting from the same PC, then its just localhost.
[09:02] <Dantonic> I'm sorry so I installed tightvncserver on my desktop... and I want to connect to it from another device using a vnc viewer
[09:03] <knoppies> Dantonic, if you connecting from a different PC, then its just the IP address of the server. (If you have a windows PC on the network, Download and install netscan)
[09:03] <Dantonic> the viewer asks for the address
[09:03] <BobJonkman> Dantonic: just use the IP address, or hostname ,  No '@' required
[09:03] <Dantonic> oh
[09:03] <Dantonic> ok
[09:03] <Dantonic> let me try
[09:03] <knoppies> Dantonic, Ive never had any luck with hostnames, I just use the loca IP.
[09:04] <fahadsadah> knoppies: You won't have any luck with hostnames, without a properly configured DNS server or /etc/hosts
[09:04] <Dantonic> ok ty I guess I'm just stuck on ssh :P I'm trying right now
[09:04] <knoppies> fahadsadah, that explains it.
[09:04] <grawity> fahadsadah: Doesn't Ubuntu come with Avahi installed?
[09:04] <BobJonkman> vnc is unlike ssh -- no user authentication, just a session password
[09:04] <knoppies> Dantonic, I want to still set up shh.
[09:04] <AmbrNewlearner> Hullo, I have an old machine which runs Inkscape 0.47 and openoffice simulataneously on Ubuntu 9.10...The problem is that inkscape runs (/renders) very slow with default Ubuntu settings...
[09:05] <AmbrNewlearner> What stuff should I disable so that Inkscape runs faster?
[09:05] <grawity> fahadsadah: Which can do that mDNS resolving without a central DNS server.
[09:05] <AmbrNewlearner> This is a machine that is required to run only inkscape and Openoffice....
[09:05] <AmbrNewlearner> I need no internet, music, video etc.............nothing
[09:06] <APERSON> I'm currently running memtest, but I don't think that's the issue
[09:06] <fahadsadah> grawity: Do all machines broadcast by default?
[09:06] <APERSON> I was being told in ##linux that the problem is ubuntu's ext4
[09:06] <grawity> fahadsadah: All machines with avahi-daemon respond to mDNS queries. (multicast, not broadcast)
[09:07] <fahadsadah> grawity: Machines don't multicast to query
[09:07] <AmbrNewlearner> What daemons, services etc can I disable to speed up this machine?
[09:07] <fahadsadah> Machines multicast their own domain name
[09:07] <Dantonic> hmm well no luck...
[09:07] <Dantonic> too bad vino doesnt work...
[09:07] <BobJonkman> Is the host listening?
[09:07] <Dantonic> I mean it works fine locally just not over the internet
[09:07] <AmbrNewlearner> Mind you, I dont need GNOME too......replaced it with fluxbox
[09:07] <Shwack> Is anybody in the position to tell me what might likely be going on with my cable internet service (somebody who might work for an ISP perhaps) ?
[09:07] <BobJonkman> Make sure port 5900 is open
[09:08] <Crazymethjesus> shut the fuck up fag!!!!!!!!!!!!1
[09:08] <fahadsadah> Shwack: Where's your problem?
[09:08] <fahadsadah> Also, what ISP?
[09:08] <Dantonic> BobJonkman, how do I check if that port is open? is there  acommand? I've forwarded it in my router
[09:08] <Dantonic> but idk if its done correctly
[09:08] <Shwack> fahadsadah-  Charter internet in san luis obispo, ca.   I have 5Meg connection..  All the sudden web pages and all DNS takes about 10-15 seconds to resolve before loading - bandwidth tests now show me at 20Mbs after the 10-15 of waiting for DNS to resolve.
[09:09] <omix> hi
[09:09] <BobJonkman> Dantonic: Hmmm...  I don't know your setup, so it's difficult to know if you're set up correctly.
[09:09] <fahadsadah> Shwack: If DNS is the only problem, don't use their DNS servers.
[09:09] <BobJonkman> Did you config the host yourself?
[09:09] <Shwack> fahadsadah-  it doesn't feel like 20Mgs, it feels very slow
[09:09] <Dantonic> well yes, I've forwarded port 5900 just like I did port 22 for ssh
[09:09] <fahadsadah> Shwack: <IP_ADDRESS> with <IP_ADDRESS> as a backup
[09:09] <Shwack> fahadsadah-  I can change my DNS servers, but wasn't aware that i could use others
[09:09] <fahadsadah> Always fast.
[09:10] <Dantonic> and assigned it to the local ip address of the desktop
[09:10] <Shwack> fahadsadah-  one second while I try
[09:10] <fahadsadah> <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS> (OpenDNS) are also fast, but they redirect addressbar searches to their own inferior search engine.
[09:10] <BobJonkman> Dantonic: viewer inititates connection to host::5900
[09:10] <grawity> fahadsadah: Which can at least be opted out.
[09:11] <APERSON> fahadsadah, I have a firefox extension that takes care of that :)
[09:11] <BobJonkman> (vnc uses weird syntax of hostname::port or hostname:displaynum
[09:11] <fahadsadah> APERSON: Me too =p
[09:11] <APERSON> grawity, last I checked, no you can't
[09:11] <fahadsadah> grawity: My dad uses it for adult site filtering
[09:11] <fahadsadah> So I don't have the password to disable search redirection
[09:11] <Dantonic> BobJonkman, wait so I am confused a bit how do I setup host::5900 not sure what that means
[09:11] <Dr_Willis> fahadsadah:  Using Opendns ?
[09:11] <Shwack> OMG fahadsadah you are the MAN!!!!!
[09:12] <Shwack> fahadsadah-  my internet is 5x faster than it has ever been
[09:12] <fahadsadah> Shwack: Thanks.
[09:12] <BobJonkman> Dantonic: The host listens on port 5900, usually display 0
[09:12] <grawity> APERSON: Sign up on "OpenDNS Dashboard". Go to "Settings". Disable "Proxy" and "Filtering".
[09:12] <grawity> APERSON: I did it a lot of times.
[09:12] <fahadsadah> Shwack: If you're four times faster than you're paying for, don't expect it to last.
[09:12] <BobJonkman> So, by default you can tell the viewer to connect to just hostname
[09:12] <fahadsadah> Dr_Willis: I made him.
[09:12] <APERSON> grawity, I've been a using opendns for a couple of years, I'v never been able to disable it :/
[09:13] <fahadsadah> Because he was before using a spyware service installed on my box
[09:13] <APERSON> I use the filtering, so no dice
[09:13] <BobJonkman> To specifiy an alternate port use two colons  hostname::port
[09:13] <Dantonic> BobJonkman, I'm sorry I suck at this... so hostname = ip?
[09:13] <BobJonkman> or one colon for displaynum  hostname:displaynum
[09:13] <Dr_Willis> fahadsadah:  theres a firefox/grease monkey script that puts back the normal 'search' feature  and gets around opendns stilling the default search stuff :) but thats how opendns makes their $$$
[09:13] <Dantonic> so select ip:5900 when I enter the server?
[09:13] <BobJonkman> Yes, hostname=IP
[09:13] <Dantonic> ok
[09:13] <Dantonic> let me try ty
[09:13] <BobJonkman> No, use two colons, Ip::5900
[09:14] <Dantonic> ok
[09:14] <APERSON> so, any advice on migrating an ext4 partition to ext3?
[09:15] <humphree> W00 at successful install on my netbook!
[09:15] <Dantonic> BobJonkman, ok so the viewer from my other device just gives an error right away it doesnt even look for it when I enter ip::5900
[09:16] <fahadsadah> humphree: Congratulations!
[09:16] <fahadsadah> Do you need any help?
[09:16] <humphree> Haha.  Thank you.
[09:16] <BobJonkman> Dantonic:  Hmm...  the viewer and host are not on the same local net?
[09:16] <humphree> Wireless wasn't working outofbox but I got that working with the Dell Broadcom drivers
[09:17] <humphree> Everythings running pretty smooth
[09:17] <Dantonic> BobJonkman, I'm sorry I think we're misunderstanding each other... I apologize...  I have no problem connecting locally... I have a problem connecting through the internet.  That's what I'm trying to do connect remotely
[09:17] <BobJonkman> Dantonic: So, my guess is that port 5900 is blocked somewhere between your viewer and the host
[09:18] <Dantonic> ok BobJonkman  I'll look further into that
[09:18] <Dr_Willis> VNC over the internet should be used with a ssh tunnle. For security
[09:18] <Dr_Willis> the !vnc factoid has details
[09:18] <BobJonkman> Dr_Willis: very true.  And then you don't need to worry about port 5900, but ssh port 22
[09:19] <Dr_Willis> i wouldent even want to try vncing with out ssh tunnle. I had a pc one day open to the internet. and there was like 1000+ hits on its vnc ports :)
[09:19] <APERSON> that's why you don't use standard ports.
[09:19] <APERSON> and ssh tunnels
[09:19] <APERSON> and use things like fail2ban
[09:20] <BobJonkman> and limit inbound connections to particular addresses,
[09:20] <Dr_Willis> using non standard ports  is not really 'secureing' just hideing. :) ssh tunnle = the way to go.
[09:20] <Dr_Willis> I forget what the tool was i used to scan allmy logs and see these hits..  'logwatch' perhaps?
[09:20] <Dr_Willis> !info logwatch
[09:22] <kavurt> I want to remove a part of a video. It's somewhere in the middle. what software would you recommend?
[09:22] <Guest7316> I can't open hi5.com, what I can do (I'm new in Ubuntu)
[09:23] <soreau> Guest7316: How have you tried to open it?
[09:23] <Dr_Willis> Guest7316:  the site Opens here.. fine.. im not going to register on it just to checkit out...
[09:23] <Dr_Willis> Guest7316:  so give more details perhaps as to whats not working.
[09:24] <paschu> Hey guys
[09:24] <kostkon> kavurt, avidemux or maybe a more featured editor like openshot video editor?
[09:24] <paschu> I played a game and now the resolution is 640 x 480. How to change?
[09:24] <Parsi1> soreau: http://i.imagehost.org/0895/Screenshot_9.png which packages?
[09:24] <soreau> paschu: Sys>Prefs>Display
[09:24] <Dr_Willis> paschu:  thers a tool called 'xrandr' i think and some xrandr frontends i use to set the res quickly  also.
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> paschu:  ive some wine games that often do that
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> !info xrandr
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> !info xrand
[09:25] <Parsi1> !info vmc
[09:25] <paschu> Vzt u cabt reacg tge aooly bzttin because the display is somall
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> gnome-randr-applet - Simple gnome-panel front end to the xrandr extension
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> or grandr - gtk interface to xrandr
[09:26] <kavurt> kostkon: is openshot in the repos?
[09:26] <soreau> Parsi1: All that are installed need to be upgraded. Especially libgl1-mesa-glx and libgl1-mesa-dri
[09:26] <mechdave> Hi all, just found out that brasero breaks when updated to 2.28.2 :(
[09:26] <kostkon> kavurt, no, you can download the deb from its site http://www.openshotvideo.com/
[09:26] <BobJonkman> mechdave: Brasero breaks how?
[09:26] <soreau> Dr_Willis: Sys>Prefs>Display uses xrandr
[09:27] <paschu> I MADE IT!
[09:27] <mechdave> BobJonkman, not sure yet, just that it stops my burner from mounting any blank disk at all therefore stopping it from burning
[09:28] <BlouBlou> I am installing kubuntu-desktop, for select kde or gnome when I login in ubuntu, but how can I use ubuntu's grub slpash?
[09:28] <BobJonkman> Yup, known issue.  use DeVeDe instead
[09:28] <mechdave> BobJonkman, is there a bug report for it yet?
[09:28] <BobJonkman> Just looking it up now
[09:28] <Dr_Willis> I like DeVeDe :)
[09:28] <soreau> BlouBlou: grub splash images are the ones you see when first starting your machine
[09:29] <Parsi1> soreau: there is no update for those packages:(
[09:29] <soreau> Parsi1: Well TBH I dont use xorg-edgers repo. If you have added this repo, make sure to apt-get update first before checking for new packages
[09:30] <BobJonkman> mechdave: Brasero bug report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395922
[09:30] <Parsi1> soreau: I did
[09:30] <soreau> Parsi1: You might be fortunate enough to find more help with it in !ubuntu+1
[09:30] <mechdave> BobJonkman, Excellent, thanks
[09:30] <soreau> Parsi1: ! = #
[09:31] <Parsi1> soreau: ubuntu+1? what is it?
[09:31] <BobJonkman> mechdave: You're welcome!
[09:32] <soreau> Parsi1: A channel, /j #ubuntu+1
[09:32]  * soreau -> bed
[09:32] <soreau> gnite
[09:32] <Parsi1> soreau: ok, tnx
[09:32] <mechdave> BobJonkman, this is a different bug for 2.26.1-0ubuntu1 whereas I have a bug (I think it's a bug) for 2.28.2-0ubuntu1
[09:33] <Dr_Willis> Heh. funny bug report on brassero  - 'fixed my problem by using DeVeDe' :) thats more of a 'work around' :)
[09:33] <Il__Matteo> bbye and thanks everybody!!!
[09:33] <Dr_Willis> I dident even know Brasero could convert video to dvd format.
[09:33] <co_1_> tika
[09:33] <co_1_> nick/tika
[09:33] <mechdave> Dr_Willis, it would be easier yes, but I am a stubborn person when it comes to this kind of thing... would like to have a go at fixing it first :/
[09:34] <Dr_Willis> mechdave:  yea. :) i just found it amuseing the bug reporter said he fixed it by using another app. ;)
[09:34] <mechdave> Dr_Willis, Oh, I must have missed that one :)
[09:34] <Dr_Willis> I tend to use devede on a spare box to do my video->dvdiso reencodeing then just burn the iso on my other machines.
[09:34] <BobJonkman> mechdave: If you're getting the error message "Please replace the disc with a supported cd or dvd" I suspect it's the same issue, even on a different Ubuntu version.
[09:35] <BobJonkman> Could always file another report, and the triage team can decide if it's a duplicate...
[09:35] <Dr_Willis> Ive had such issues with brassero in the past ive not even troed it in 9.10
[09:35] <mechdave> BobJonkman, Nah it is no message at all, hang about and I shall get it to do it again
[09:36] <BobJonkman> And even another report of the issue on the same bug would be useful
[09:36] <noname_> Is this a correct command for mounting via terminal? sudo mount -t vfat -o defaults /dev/sdc /media/stick
[09:36] <lnxten> hi kenneth
[09:37] <noname_> I tried typing this in the terminal but I couldn't mount the usb stick.
[09:37] <Dr_Willis> mechdave:  im seeing the same message here. but i dont even have a blank disk in the drive. :) i just want to make an .iso
[09:37] <mechdave> here is the dmesg output --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/325208/
[09:38] <mechdave> Dr_Willis, BobJonkman There is no error coming from brasero, the thing just won't burn anything
[09:38] <Lungan> I have som trouble with ubuntu on a asus computer, I have to set ls_switch to 0 every time I start the computer, is there anyway to have this to 0 permanently?
[09:38] <Dr_Willis> mechdave:  at the top of the brassero window theres a message box built in. thats where i see the message
[09:38] <BobJonkman> Hmm. Different bug then.  I got a dialog box with the error message
[09:39] <Leoneof`> hi, my wlan1 can detect alot of networks in Terminal, but there are no networks in network icon in the top of toolbar, any help?
[09:39] <WinXPNewb2> The stick is in fat16. Not sure if that matters. It auto-mounted before.
[09:39] <Dr_Willis> BobJonkman:  i dident even try to burn yet. :) its saying that with my disks empty  - let me find a blank disk
[09:40] <Leoneof`> network icon is still invisible
[09:40] <ardchoille> Dr_Willis: is this brasero issue only on Karmic?
[09:40] <ardchoille> becuase I don't see the problem
[09:40] <ardchoille> jaunty here
[09:41] <terriblesarcasm> Hello, I am currently using ubuntu karmic koala, but am having trouble using my jawbone, I have paired it, but it does not show up as an audio input/output device in pavucontrol or the default sound controller, does anyone have any ideas?
[09:41] <mechdave> ardchoille, As far as I can tell it is only on karmic with brasero-2.28.2-0ubuntu1
[09:41] <ardchoille> mechdave: Ah, ok, thanks
[09:41] <Parsi1> is there another window manager except compiz?
[09:41] <Leoneof`> hello?
[09:42] <grawity> Parsi1: Metacity comes with Ubuntu.
[09:42] <grawity> Parsi1: There are lots more (though some of them aren't easy to use)
[09:42] <Parsi1> grawity: is it window manager?
[09:42] <BobJonkman> Hello Leoneof`
[09:42] <grawity> yes.
[09:42] <Dr_Willis> Parsi1: thers dozens of window managers out there.
[09:42] <Dr_Willis> Parsi1:  compiz is the one that gives allthe fancy eye candy
[09:43] <Parsi1> Dr_Willis: I'm looking for a simple one
[09:43] <Dr_Willis> Parsi1:  thers dozens of them install openbox perhaps
[09:43] <Leoneof`> BobJonkman: my wlan1 can detect alot of networks in Terminal, but network icon is invisible in the top of toolbar
[09:43] <Dr_Willis> Pasifica:  many of these WILL require you to read the docs to figure out totally
[09:43] <Parsi1> Dr_Willis: now installing openbox
[09:44] <BobJonkman> Sorry Leoneof` I can't help with that.
[09:44] <Leoneof`> ok, thanks ^_^
[09:44] <Leoneof`> BobJonkman, i'm beginner with Linux world ^_^
[09:44] <terriblesarcasm> Has anyone had any luck streaming audio to a bluetooth headset in karmic?
[09:45] <Dr_Willis> Hmm.. Brassero only lets me put 2, 45 min shows on a dvd.  DeVeDe will let me fit more on.. at lower quality
[09:45] <BobJonkman> Leoneof` We were all beginners at one time.  Some of us stayed that way :)
[09:45] <Leoneof`> :D
[09:45] <renata> hello, what is the command for EXAILE to play Audio CDs automatically? I've tried various combinations with exaile --play but none works, thanks
