[19:30] <nit-wit> OO is a strange beast at times the OO file from home is left even when purged, and can mess with a reinstalation.
[19:30] <birdman007> What music player is a really good one
[19:31] <goltoof> sergio91pt:  it is weird that it wouldn't work doing that  :/
[19:31] <jacks__> got a problem with gnome-language-selector http://fpaste.org/uwDD/
[19:31] <nit-wit> birdman007, what do you want from the player
[19:31] <h-dee> birdman007: try Audacious, if you're from Windows background, and used to Winamp
[19:31] <rusty149> birdman007: clementine or rhythmbox
[19:31] <h-dee> Hi...the subtitle files can't seem to load up when playing movie in stock Movie Player. Anyone knows how to resolve this? Tried everything.
[19:32] <DaGeek247> birdman007: not satisfied with ubuntu default player/organizer rythmbox?
[19:32] <Myrtti> patience, h-dee
[19:32] <nit-wit> h-dee, you might try smplayer the front end for the other Mplayer
[19:32] <rusty149> h-dee: Are they in a seperate file?
[19:32] <birdman007> i'm use to using itunes
[19:33] <thomc> Is there a way to stop ubuntu updating certain packages in a repo when you run apt-get update?
[19:33] <goltoof> h-dee:  have you selected for it to display the subtitles?  after making sure the file is in the same dir as the movie?
[19:33] <h-dee> nit-wit: rusty149: I'm using MPlayer to do the job, but just want to know why others are able to load up such files in default Movie Player, but I'm not.
[19:33] <goltoof> h-dee:  view > subtitles > select subtitles
[19:33] <h-dee> goltoof: I tried everything buddy.
[19:33] <guntbert> !pin | thomc
[19:33] <nit-wit> h-dee, is it actuall totem
[19:33] <sergio91pt> thomc: you gan go to synaptic and lock the package I think
[19:33] <nit-wit> *actually
[19:34] <quique> ZykoticK9: it looks like getlibs
[19:34] <DaGeek247> birdman007: i dont think that is for ubuntu. :p check out rythmbox from Applications>Sound and Video
[19:34] <quique> just installs
[19:34] <quique> the libs
[19:34] <goltoof> h-dee:  i hate sub files, sometimes they're out of sync with the audio.. wish they'd just keep it all in one file somehow
[19:34] <h-dee> goltoof: Totem is the stock Movie Player I think. If yes, I'm talking about that only.
[19:34] <quique> it doesn't make it use them
[19:34] <goltoof> h-dee:  right, totem = mplayer
[19:34] <goltoof> init?
[19:34] <nit-wit> h-dee, is it movie player or Mplayer your using
[19:34] <h-dee> goltoof: actually I've tried all .ssa, .srt, .sub No one shows up.
[19:35] <jacks__> got a problem with gnome-language-selector http://fpaste.org/uwDD/
[19:35] <rusty149> h-dee: Go to Help > About to be sure of program name.
[19:35] <h-dee> nit-wit: I'm able to get the files work with MPlayer, but the Movie Player which came by default with Ubuntu installation don't load such files.
[19:35] <ZykoticK9> quique, to for 32bit you could try running the app like "linux32 ls" replace ls with whatever you are actually running.
[19:35] <rusty149> h-dee: What is the file extension?
[19:35] <h-dee> rusty149: Its Totem.
[19:36] <h-dee> rusty149: Tried srt, ssa, sub. All failed to show up.
[19:36] <nit-wit> h-dee, for subtitles I use vlc or smplayer which is a front end for Mplayer. Totem in my maverick set up is noe called movie player
[19:36] <ZykoticK9> h-dee, i use mplayer for almost everything (i have for years), i think Totem is poor in quality - and seems to cause a lot of issues.
[19:36] <nit-wit> *now
[19:36] <kikko> buonasera
[19:37] <rusty149> h-dee: OK, but what is the format and extension of the file you are loading? Or have you got multiple files?
[19:37] <kikko> list
[19:37] <brontoeee> ZykoticK9, its a mistery why totem is bundled by default, is it about licensing?
[19:37] <cyberlord> hey , all operations for package installation return me this: E: Invalid operation package_name
[19:37] <h-dee> nitwit: ZykoticK9: I use MPlayer for that, but just curious to know why Totem didn't showed up subs when other people using the same app can use such files without facing any such issues (checked via Ubuntu forums)
[19:37] <ZykoticK9> brontoeee, ? i have no idea - i don't make the decisions ;)
[19:37] <rusty149> Totem is awesome btw, that is why it is default
[19:38] <h-dee> rusty149: I tried .srt, .ssa, .sub files.
[19:38] <quique> ZykoticK9: i tried that already, and it didn't work
[19:38] <cyberlord> my update manager doesn't work too
[19:38] <goltoof> h-dee:  tried purgin/reinstalling?
[19:38] <kikko> ddlhits.com
[19:39] <ZykoticK9> quique, sorry don't know then.  Best of luck.
[19:39] <h-dee> goltoof: I reinstalled whole ubuntu 2 days back (corrupted some system files), but still the same problem.
[19:39] <rusty149> h-dee: Totem Movie Player will automatically load and display subtitles for a video if it finds a subtitle file with the same name as the video being played, and the extension asc, txt, sub, srt, smi, ssa or ass.
[19:39] <goltoof> h-dee:  yeah but remove --purge totem/mplayer  then reinstall
[19:40] <h-dee> rusty149: Exactly! And what's what ain't happening at all.
[19:40] <goltoof> h-dee:  right, sub file must be same name as movie file name
[19:40] <goltoof> i think :s
[19:40] <h-dee> goltoof: I know that. Thanks. I'll try re-installing that app again.

[19:44] <nadeiz> hola
[19:44] <Bangsak> hallo all
[19:44] <bcurtiswx> so when reinstalling.. i should keep the .ssh and .gnupg folders.. right?
[19:45] <nit-wit> h-dhow do you know they are loading these files and in what context, your working in a assumptive mode.
[19:45] <halvor> is there a way that my wifi problems (that i've created) could be solved by reinstalling the latest kernel which supports my wifi chips?

[19:47] <halvor> rusty149: how could i do that? sudo apt-get --reinstall what?

[19:53] <brontoeee> paddy_, use something that reconverts to lossy format ? like aac or whatever is supported in ipads

[20:00] <m4xx> i have to run ntpdate daily right now it's off by 22 minutes, why might my machine not be keeping time properly?
[20:00] <halvor> hey, can anyone tell me how can i reinstall the latest kernel?
[20:00] <erUSUL> m4xx: low motherboard battery? you duial boot with windows and it messes up the clock ?
[20:00] <paddy_> brontoeee I managed to do previously
[20:00] <sergio91pt> boshhead: there's no need for one, you can install it from the partners repo
[20:01] <breadcrumb> Losyram, looks like it's just a FlashVideo, you need  Adobe Flash Player
[20:01] <Oer> halvor you should download and compile it yourself www.kernel.org
[20:01] <m4xx> it's a brand new mobo
[20:01] <m4xx> so i dont think it's the battery
[20:01] <erUSUL> m4xx: dual boot?
[20:01] <breadcrumb> !flashplayer | Losyram
[20:01] <Besogon> m4xx, there is something wrong with motherboard
[20:01] <boshhead> sergio91pt: but my system is up to date, i have the partners repo enabled, and i'm running flash 10.1 ... where is flash 10.2?
[20:01] <m4xx> yes i do dual boot, but haven't booted into windows in a few days
[20:03] <Losyram> breadcrumb : Could it be so simple ? Do you know wich version I should install for ubuntu 10.10 ? http://get.adobe.com/fr/flashplayer/
[20:04] <erUSUL> m4xx: something weird in « dmesg | grep -Ei '(clock|time)' » ? a line similar to this rtc_cmos 00:02: setting system clock to 2011-01-06 17:45:23 UTC<PHONE_NUMBER>)
[20:04] <Losyram> ubottu : I'm looking at your links, thanks
[20:05] <sergio91pt> boshhead: you can always download the generic linux plugin: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html
[20:05] <Jemt> Hi. I suppose the database holding information about .deb packages available though apt-get, may take up a little space. How do I clear this database? I can always perform 'apt-get update' when I want it back
[20:05] <boshhead> sergio91pt: yeah, i'd like to avoid doing that. i want a proper package. someone bothered to make one for 64-bit, i'm just confused as to why there doesn't seem to be one for 32-bit
[20:06] <m4xx> erUSUL: [    1.106290] rtc_cmos 00:04: setting system clock to 2010-12-27 13:28:54 UTC<PHONE_NUMBER>)
[20:06] <erUSUL> m4xx: and it matchs with the time you booted the computer ? ( taking into account that this time is utc )
[20:07] <thomc> My brightness function keys aren't working. The notification bubble comes up but the bar doesn't move.
[20:07] <sergio91pt> boshhead: I think it's because till recently there was no official x64 binaries (not sure)

[20:07] <marine1> what is the best way to transfer files from a internal hard drive to external
[20:07] <marine1> is it just plug and go??
[20:08] <Bipul`> sudo apt-get build-essential ruby ? is it correct command to install ruby
[20:08] <marine1> then drag and drop
[20:08] <j-invariant> so how do I get foomatic-rip-hplip?
[20:08] <martinrame> hi, in Ubuntu Server 10.04 I've installed Apache2, and I doesn't starts at boot. If I do sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start it runs
[20:08] <sergio91pt> boshhead: anyway its a closed-source (single) binary file, when the repo gets updated you'll get the "official" flash 10.2 (porbably won't happen while its in beta status)
[20:08] <marine1> or do I need to format the new external drive create partations
[20:08] <Oer> marine1 just plug it in, an Icon should appear on your desktop
[20:08] <marine1> Oer: then hwat
[20:09] <marine1> Oer: *what
[20:09] <marine1> Oer: do I have to format the new drive??
[20:09] <Oer> marine1, just open it, and you should see the folders, else you need ntfs drivers
[20:09] <marine1> Oer: this is for linux not windows
[20:10] <marine1> Oer: gparted
[20:10] <Oer> marine1, if you do not need ntfs, format ext3/ext4 with Gparted
[20:10] <marine1> Oer: basically I want to do a fresh install on my current harddrive but it ws never properly formated
[20:10] <SandCube> how to access my machine on LAN by http://servername/ instead of http://<IP_ADDRESS> without using dns?
[20:11] <Oer> marine1 i see, backup your data and start a fresh install ;-)
[20:11] <boshhead> SandCube: add an entry in /etc/hosts
[20:11] <marine1> Oer: I don't want to lose all of my files,etc so I want to purchase an external transfer all of my files over. Then refomat the current hd then transfer everything back
[20:12] <BoronCarbide> ld: crtbegin.o: No such file: No such file or directory is the error I get when trying to compile things, also says gcc cannot create executables have tried reinstalling just about everything relevant....
[20:12] <SandCube> boshhead: I tried it, but no luck. How to do it? I want access by http://sandcube-vm/
[20:12] <marine1> Oer: i can't back it up on the same hd because it was never seperated by home / root
[20:12] <cpu_samurai> hello everyone
[20:12] <Oer> marine1, yes you can copy 1:1
[20:13] <marine1> Oer: how do I do that
[20:13] <Jordan_U> marine1: You don't need to have /home on a separate partition to preserve /home with a re-install.
[20:13] <smw> hello cpu_samurai
[20:13] <SandCube> boshhead: also I just want to cofigure the server, not the clients
[20:13] <boshhead> SandCube: what does the line in /etc/hosts say?  You should have a line that says: <IP_ADDRESS> <tab> sandcube-vm
[20:13] <martinrame> hi, in Ubuntu Server 10.04 I've installed Apache2, and I doesn't starts at boot. If I do sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start it runs ok.
[20:14] <SandCube> boshhead: on the server or clients?
[20:14] <martinrame> does anyong faced the same problem?
[20:14] <boshhead> SandCube: well that's impossible. you either need to use DNS, or each machine is going to need a host entry for that named machine.
[20:14] <Oer> marine1,  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem
[20:14] <marine1> Jordan_U: yes I know but the root home have never been seperated it's all under dev/sda
[20:14] <boshhead> SandCube: on the clients
[20:15] <Jordan_U> marine1: http://castrojo.tumblr.com/post/1093664654/no-need-to-complicate-your-life
[20:15] <SandCube> boshhead: is there any way to do it only on server side?
[20:15] <boshhead> SandCube: when a computer tries to resolve a name, it first looks in /etc/hosts, if nothing is there, it tries DNS. So, you need to do one of those two things.
[20:15] <cpu_samurai> couldnt jordan just resize his current partition, create a new 2nd partition and then copy the data over?
[20:15] <boshhead> SandCube: not as far as i'm aware
[20:16] <marine1> Jordan_U: OK but what does that have to do with preserving my data on a fresh install
[20:17] <BoronCarbide> ld: crtbegin.o: No such file: No such file or directory is the error I get when trying to compile things, also says gcc cannot create executables have tried reinstalling just about everything relevant....

[20:17] <Oer> marine1, if it is all under sda , i would make a package list of installed apps > " terminal: sudo dpkg --get-selections > installed-applications.txt " and reinstall
[20:17] <CPU_Samurai> well if you resize current partition to make space for a new 2ndary partition aka d: or sutch, then copy the data over to it.. so when you re-install you will only be formatting the c: thus leaving the data on the new d: alone

[20:41] <tajpan_22> can someone help me with irssi please?
[20:41] <Oer> marine1, drag & drop works, if you have sufficient diskspace on the external, of course
[20:41] <Nanoha> Jordan_U: Good afternoon!

[20:42] <marine1> Oer: yes 1TB
[20:42] <younder> what's that?
[20:42] <gobbe> younder: your mirror is broken
[20:42] <marine1> Oer: the reason why I'm doing a fresh install i upgraded via update manager to 9.10 and now I have multiple problems
[20:42] <j-invariant> Nanoha: I changed the driver and I think itw orks now!!! thank you
[20:43] <younder> gobbe, my what?
[20:43] <gobbe> younder: norway mirror, use sweden or something
[20:43] <Nanoha> j-invariant: YAY!  I had a good solution for once!! LOL
[20:43] <younder> gobbe, ahh
[20:43] <marine1> Oer: One of them is speaker sound the other is movie player not being able to play yputube videos from inside the program and my system froze up on me like 3 to 4 times already
[20:44] <younder> gobbe, I seriously doubt it
[20:44] <qoelqast> I got: error setting MTRR when trying to load X, there's only X installed. What does this mean/how to fix?
[20:44] <younder> gobbe, It all seems to happen after I used bastille
[20:45] <marine1> Oer: and now that I look at it i have been using ubuntu since the 7. series and never reallt partitioned my harddrive correctly
[20:45] <gobbe> younder: ok, then you firewalled outgoing connections or something
[20:46] <Oer> marine1 you really need a fresh install, take your time :-)
[20:46] <marine1> Oer: if I do fresh install should i reformat the entire hdd then reinstall packages then drag all of my files back to the reformatted harddrive
[20:47] <marine1> Oer: in other words seperate root/swp and home folders
[20:47] <Oer> marine1, let ubuntu 'use entire HDD' and it will set properly
[20:49] <marine1> Oer: so I don't have to manually seperate root/home/swap
[20:50] <qoelqast> I got: error setting MTRR when trying to load X, there's only X installed. What does this mean/how to fix?
[20:50] <Oer> marine1, yes, ubuntu calculates the right sizes and format-type etc
[20:50] <BrixSat> hello
[20:51] <marine1> Oer: you know i think I did that in the past and it never seperated anything but lumped it all together in dev/sda
[20:51] <BrixSat> what permissions should have /var/www so that www-data user and proftpd user can write and read and execute?
[20:51] <marine1> Oer: what is the command for seeing dev/sda
[20:52] <ignarps> marine1, if you don't know you want a specific filesystem layout you want for a system.  Then use the defaults.
[20:52] <lesshaste> I want to print to an HP printer on my local network. In windows I just add a networked printer. In ubuntu it asks me to specify the network printer "Host"
[20:52] <ignarps> how do you want to see sda ? ls ? dd, fdisk ?
[20:52] <lesshaste> what should that be?
[20:52] <arizalord> how do i get extended desktop option for multiple displays with different resolution in Xubuntu??
[20:52] <marine1> ignarps: will what partations i have so far
[20:53] <mtraker> Hi
[20:53] <ignarps> marine1, that question does not make sense.
[20:53] <mtraker> is it posible speak with empathy in irc chanels?
[20:53] <tajpan_22>  /script load script.pl
[20:53] <marine1> ignarps: that wasn't a question. see what ios on dev/ssda
[20:53] <marine1> ignarps: *is
[20:54] <ignarps> I guess I don't understand what you are trying to do.  Do you want to see the partition table of sda ? or mount it to see what files are on it
[20:54] <marine1> Oer: so I should be straight then. Save home to external then freshh install then just reload my apps
[20:55] <qoelqast> bryceh: cat /proc/mtrr gives outpu: base=0x000000000 (     0MB),size=     128MB, count=1:write-back etc
[20:55] <cschneid> Can somebody recommend an FTP server that can be driven off a username file (ie, not unix accounts, but a db or plaintext file instead)?
[20:56] <astroboy> Is there a way to see every explicitly installed packages?
[20:56] <ignarps> cschneid, proftpd will do this
[20:56] <marine1> Oer: will a fresh install overwrite that saved file for my apps
[20:56] <ignarps> astra05, dpkg --list
[20:56] <Oer> marine1, yes i hope so
[20:56] <Oer> fresh install will wipe your entire drive marine1
[20:57] <cschneid> ignarps: cool, I'll dive into it.  Basically need the "Shared hosting" environment for ftp, where I can autocreate a directory, and give somebody ftp access.
[20:57] <Oer> so if you saved your /home/ you will find it there
[20:57] <JAIME> HOLA
[20:57] <JAIME> HOLAAA?
[20:58] <marine1> oer beautiful
[20:58] <marine1> Oer: beautiflu
[20:58] <breadcrumb> !es | jaime
[20:58] <ignarps> cschneid, yeah proftp even has a ton of plugin/modules for it.   I am sure you will be able to do what you want with it
[20:59] <Andycas> im using ssh to connecto to remote machine, how do I launch a gui program on remote machine display? I have tried firefox --display=:0 but that does not work (it works when I use it on local machine, but on ssh it says cannot open display)
[20:59] <cschneid> ignarps: awesome, thanks for the help
[20:59] <erUSUL> Andycas: you have to enable the user to open programs in the local Xserver
[20:59] <marine1> Oer: just thinking out load maybe i can just write out my current installed apps and when I do the fresh install it will install the latest and greatest versions??
[20:59] <ignarps> use ssh -X hostname to connect to the remote server
[21:00] <erUSUL> Andycas: xhost +SI:localuser:usernametogiveaccesstogoeshere
[21:00] <qoelqast> I got: error setting MTRR when trying to load X, there's only X installed. What does this mean/how to fix?
[21:00] <ignarps> then you check for $DISPLAY to have the localhost:10.0 etc.  then x apps should launch
[21:00] <ignarps> unless they turned off X redirection in the sshd_config file
[21:00] <Oer> marine1, update gives the latest automatic
[21:00] <marine1> Oer:  oh ok
[21:00] <Andycas> erUSUL, thanks, I will try this
[21:01] <tame_lx_tech> evenin all
[21:01] <marine1> Oer: so reload apps then update??
[21:01] <ignarps> Andycas, read what I wrote above
[21:01] <ignarps> Andycas, it was for your ssh X question
[21:01] <guntbert> ignarps: you are telling him how to get a remot app disply on the local display - I assumed he wanted it to display on the remote...
[21:01] <astroboy> So there is no way of listing the packages that were selected explicitely, not pulled in as dependencies?
[21:01] <ignarps> oh I misunderstood you
[21:01] <erUSUL> ignarps: he asked how to launch a program in the *remote display*
[21:02] <ignarps> ah reminds me the days of xcrowbar
[21:02] <tame_lx_tech> normally thats 'export DISPLAY=:0'
[21:02] <Oer> marine1, i would reinstall all versions tru synaptic
[21:02] <shomon> hi, I've got a laptop running linux which doesn't boot. It puts me on a console with a lot of errors, and it doesn't manage to mount anything.
[21:03] <marine1> oer yes that is what I was thinking
[21:03] <genii-around> astroboy: sudo dpkg --get-selections
[21:03] <shomon> any idea where to start with diagnosing it?
[21:04] <astroboy> genii-around: thanks
[21:04] <shomon> it says "unable to handle kernel paging request" at the top of this bunch of errors.
[21:04] <ignarps> shomon, do you see the grub screen ?
[21:04] <KM0201> shomon: well, i'd start by googling the errors.. what version of ubuntu?
[21:04] <shomon> not sure, what is that? It's the latest nds 10.04?
[21:05] <astroboy> genii-around: Actually that thing lists packages that were pulled as dependencies
[21:05] <marine1> Oer: yes bro so once fresh install is done then reload apps or just go thur synaptic??
[21:05] <shomon> oops yes lts, ignarps
[21:05] <shomon> it seems to be a root terminal with a few commands in it
[21:05] <shomon> like wget etc
[21:06] <shomon> but I'll see what some more of the errors are...
[21:06] <marine1> Oer: i know the command sudo dpkg --set-selections < myPackages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade will reinstall packages but how do I know when to do that??
[21:07] <shomon> ah, It's busybox
[21:07] <lk> hello
[21:08] <Andycas> erUSUL, "xhost +" did the trick temporarily, but I can't seem to get it working with access control on
[21:08] <shomon> KM0201 it's 10.04 I think, busybox is calling it ubutu 1:1.13.3-1ubuntu11
[21:09] <qoelqast> I got: error setting MTRR when trying to load X, there's only X installed. What does this mean/how to fix?
[21:09] <Oer> marine1, you use it in terminal, or use the list as refference for package choosing in synaptic
[21:09] <KM0201> shomon: yeah, those busybox errors are hard to troubleshoot.
[21:09] <shomon> :) ah so it's not just me
[21:09] <shomon> well lots to read, but I want to know just if it's software and fixable or a job for the laptop shop
[21:10] <marine1> Oer: yes so after the frsh install is done the use the command in the terminal?
[21:10] <marine1> Oer: right?
[21:10] <KM0201> shomon: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1468277
[21:10] <marine1> Oer: it's probably easier to do it in the terminal
[21:10] <KM0201> shomon: was that an upgrade, or a clean install?
[21:11] <marine1> Oer: then it will get latest vrsions
[21:11] <jedi6185> so i need a bit of help on installing ubuntu
[21:11] <jedi6185> anybody mind assisting?
[21:11] <KM0201> jedi6185: whats the problem?
[21:11] <jedi6185> well i installed it the first time
[21:11] <fox__> just checking this channel, see you guys later...
[21:11] <shomon> thanks! just having a gander
[21:11] <jedi6185> and had a problem with the video
[21:11] <jedi6185> so figured maybe i f'd up the install so i did it again
[21:11] <shomon> KM0201: it was a clean install
[21:12] <marine1> Oer: once last thing i would like to back-up all of my ff settings,bookmarks passwords and sites?
[21:12] <jedi6185> so far the video looks fine... but it wont startup... its stuck at the startup screen with the cursor doing the wait thing
[21:12] <Oer> marine1, if you haven't done this before,i recconment manual install tru synaptic
[21:12] <guntbert> !enter | jedi6185
[21:12] <KM0201> jedi6185: do you get a grub menu
[21:12] <jedi6185> no km i dont
[21:13] <marine1> Oer: that's fine
[21:13] <Oer> marine1, bookmarks yes, passwords no
[21:13] <marine1> Oer: isn't there a setting in the ff folders for passwords
[21:15] <marine1> Oer: profile migration
[21:15] <shomon> KM0201: is there a way to get to some kind of boot log if it didn't mount a volume?
[21:15] <shomon> the problem I think is that a lot of this error has scrolled off the screen
[21:15] <shomon> so I can't get back with shift pgup
[21:16] <shomon> I have made a boot disk and tried that but although it is set to boot from cd first, it gives the exact same error message
[21:16] <alzamabar> Hi does anyone know how to assign always the same IP to a VM Ubuntu which uses NAT (Share hosts IP address)?
[21:17] <guntbert> alzamabar: that depends on the virtualization product
[21:17] <alzamabar> guntbert: I'm using VMware Workstation
[21:18] <shoplifter> shomon, have you looked into /var/log/messages ?
[21:18] <marine1> Oer: this is what i'm working with: /dev/sda1   *           1       18662   149902483+  83  Linux
[21:18] <marine1> /dev/sda2           18663       19457     6385837+   5  Extended

[21:18] <guntbert> alzamabar: I don't know, but you could ask in #vmware
[21:19] <alzamabar> Thanks
[21:19] <shomon> no, there is nothing on var, but "lock"
[21:19] <shomon> :'(
[21:19] <younder> well sound works! If justUtube would..
[21:20] <shomon> the full error message I am getting at the top is ""BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 00fc0000""
[21:20] <pipegeek> how possible is it right now to get maverick running on a macbook air (without virtualization)?  I've been googling for a while and there don't seem to be too many people  who've pulled it off.

[21:20] <BoronCarbide> I cant compile any programs it just says that gcc cant compile executables tried reinstalling ...... and rebooting...

[21:22] <bug2000> How do you do the run? [normally I've used Alt+F2, but it doesn't seem to work]
[21:23] <younder> rebooting often works or me..
[21:23] <Danny78> hi everyone
[21:23] <Jordan_U> pipegeek: Best way to find out is to try to boot from a liveCD/USB and see how it works. If the live system works then installation should go fine.
[21:24] <BoronCarbide> guntbert, its related to crtbegin.o but I do have the file...
[21:24] <younder> Take leave of the pleasantries and state your problem.

[21:34] <hariykeyboard> can anyone direct me to any links about or does anyone have any recommendations about what root directories are worth backing up?

[21:39] <delac> using x11vnc ja xtightvncviewer over slow 3G connection. How to make it faster?
[21:39] <Scunizi> delac: 4g
[21:39] <delac> Scunizi: lol
[21:39] <rumpe1> *g*
[21:39] <tas> KM0201, doesn't work... says wrong hash thingy
[21:40] <agentgasmask> delac: Did you try lowering the colors to 16?
[21:40] <delac> agentgasmask: -depth ?
[21:40] <agentgasmask> delac: Let me check...
[21:40] <KM0201> tas: did you type it properly?..
[21:40] <agentgasmask> delac: I know that you can do it from the "F8" options menu...
[21:40] <tas> KM0201, oh, I missed the 's' in downloads. thanks!
[21:40] <Lantchips> tas use tab
[21:41] <tas> Lantchips, tab?
[21:41] <shomon> does anyone know where to start diagnosing a 10.04 axer laptop that won't boot? I am in busybox, how do I find out the problem?
[21:41] <guntbert> !tab | tas
[21:41] <Lantchips> !tab
[21:41] <cgcardona> my httpd.conf file in /etc/apache2/ is blank by default. Should it be?
[21:42] <tas> guntbert, u can use that for nicks only..
[21:42] <delac> agentgasmask: do what?
[21:42] <Lantchips> no in the terminal :P
[21:42] <guntbert> tas: no, it works in the terminal too
[21:42] <nicofs> i need help connecting to the internet via console. i can activate the interface via ifconfig, list available networks via iwlist. after connection with iwconfig, i run dhclient. and don't get an ip... please help...
[21:42] <Lantchips> tas like type cd Dow and tab it should give you Downloads
[21:42] <tas> Lantchips, guntbert oh thanks :D
[21:43] <tas> ok so I am stuck, how do I get the make setup.tar.gz command done? XD
[21:43] <rumpe1> tas, 1) tar xzvf setup.tar.gz
[21:44] <guntbert> tas: what are you trying to do?
[21:44] <ignarps> shomon, does your system boot okay off of the install CD?  Usually when I get dropped into busybox it is because my initramfs doesn't have the correct driver or maybe md support
[21:44] <ignarps> shomon, is this a fresh install or upgrade?
[21:44] <agentgasmask> delac: I don't see the command line flag in tightvncviewer, but it is -LowColourLevel 0 in xvnc4viewer
[21:44] <tas> guntbert, trying to install theme I downloaded .tar.gz it got instructions from where I downloaded it...
[21:44] <shomon> ignarps: no it doesn't boot
[21:45] <guntbert> tas: sorry, no idea about themes here
[21:45] <ignarps> shomon, how did you put the OS on your laptop then if the install ISO does not boot?
[21:45] <shomon> well, now it doesn't. It just one day didn't boot again
[21:46] <Lantchips> tas untar it to ~./theme ?
[21:46] <ignarps> try hooking up an external usb cd drive and see if it will boot from that
[21:46] <tas> Lantchips, how?
[21:46] <Lantchips> Which I had Ubuntu on this PC :(
[21:46] <ignarps> sounds like failing hardware if it used to boot and now doesn't
[21:46] <Lantchips> tas wait I will see if I can find a good guide for you
[21:46] <shomon> oh well... thanks ignarps
[21:46] <delac> agentgasmask: well, i'll see about that, but here's my current setting (the script I use to connect). any other ideas?      http://paste.ubuntu.com/551242/
[21:46] <tas> Lantchips, ok thanks.
[21:46] <shomon> do you think I'll be able to diagnose what is wrong hardware wise?
[21:47] <willchan> who knows about WebDataServiceConsumer
[21:47] <Lantchips> tas http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gl-tmGfQrzs :) Think this should work
[21:47] <ignarps> depends how good your troubleshooting and problem isolation skills are
[21:47] <willchan> oops, wrong channel :P
[21:47] <ignarps> try to think of tests to rule out good hardware vs bad hardware
[21:48] <shomon> ignarps: any idea where to start? maybe some linux kernel docs somewhere?
[21:48] <ignarps> shomon, your thinking too deep.
[21:48] <shomon> :)
[21:48] <ignarps> shomon, test to see your cd drive works first then try to boot of an external cd drive
[21:49] <shomon> ok. well as far as I can tell it's an identical boot whether the ubuntu disc is in or not
[21:49] <ignarps> if you can not boot from the ubuntu install CD and it used to work.  Then something is broken.
[21:49] <shomon> it recognises an external usb drive though
[21:49] <gribouille> hi
[21:49] <agentgasmask> delac: Looks like your more advanced than me... I would say give xvnc4viewer a try, for what it's worth. Good luck!
[21:49] <shomon> if I plug one in... maybe I could get a bootable thing on there?
[21:49] <Lantchips> tas Something like that you were wondering ?
[21:50] <ignarps> shomon, that sounds like you are not actually booting off of the cd-rom then.   You have to either select a custom boot order on bootup.  Or change your bios to boot from the cdrom
[21:50] <gribouille> I've downloaded a package with 'apt-get --download-only source'. what is the command to build the package ?
[21:50] <shomon> I did. it gives me an option to do that at boot
[21:50] <shomon> I went through all of the options after it didn't boot once
[21:50] <tas> Lantchips, I think so, I am watching it, give me a moment please.
[21:50] <shomon> from the cd I mean.
[21:51] <ignarps> shomon, okay so it "does boot from cdrom"  you said it didn't
[21:51] <ignarps> shomon, so back to the first question.  Is this a new install or upgrade ?
[21:51] <shomon> no, it doesn't! sorry for confusion there
[21:51] <ignarps> shomon, first step is to get your cdrom to boot the install iso then.
[21:51] <shomon> no, it won't boot from cdrom, so because it didn't I went through all the boot order options that there were (it wasn't that clear which one was the cd)
[21:52] <ignarps> shomon, the reason I say this. Is that kernel should detect and support most hardware.   ruling out a kernel config problem with the OS on your HD
[21:52] <ajwill> hi all, I have a question, I have a 80GB hard drive (small I know) and I have it dual booting winxp and ubuntu 10.10, when I click on my partition for windows XP, it has various different names when it mounts, I'd like it if it had a constant name, and mounted at startup, so I can link certain programs (like rhythm box to my itunes folder) between ubuntu and XP, how would I do this?
[21:53] <shomon> the other options just gave a couple of lines of error as expected, but cd and hard drive boot was identical...
[21:53] <Weedy> ajwill: so name it
[21:53] <ajwill> Weedy: but how, it wont let me, and I have no idea how to have it mount at startup
[21:53] <Weedy> uhh
[21:53] <ignarps> shomon, do you have any other bootable cd's to test?  Maybe your cd is bad
[21:53] <Weedy> disk utility or something
[21:53] <shomon> no, it loads up okay on this box here, as a package disk with ubuntu stuff in it.
[21:54] <shomon> so I'm pretty sure it is okay.
[21:54] <ajwill> Weedy: okay so disk utility, how would I name it?
[21:54] <tas> Lantchips, I think thats it, let me try doing it now :D
[21:54] <ignarps> then sounds like something hardware wise is broken on your laptop
[21:54] <Lantchips> tas Good luck :)
[21:54] <shomon> ignarps: I just tried another one just in case
[21:54] <Weedy> ajwill: ... the label button
[21:55] <shomon> ah! now it works!
[21:55] <shomon> thanks ignarps, looks like I'm a step forward now... the cd was the problem!
[21:55] <ajwill> Weedy: and changing the label wont corrupt any data or anything?
[21:55] <Weedy> it's just a label
[21:55] <ignarps> shomon, anytime.  Remember to practice problem isolation when troubleshooting stuff.
[21:56] <ignarps> shomon, break the problem down into smaller pieces.  don't get stuck on the big scary errors :)
[21:56] <shomon> excellent tecnique!
[21:56] <shomon> technique even...
[21:56] <ajwill> Weedy, okay now, how would I get it set up to mount at startup?
[21:57] <ideaman> Can anyone tell me a good PCI Wifi Card for that is linux compatible out of the box?
[21:58] <Weedy> ajwill: i dunno, mine mounts on startup
[21:58] <DarkStar1> is there a GUI configuration tool I can use to configure Apache?
[21:58] <ignarps> ajwill, you could add it to mount from /etc/fstab
[21:58] <ajwill> ignarps: okay, how would I do that?
[21:59] <vadimkiselev> DarkStar1 try search in google 'gui apache configuration utilite'
[22:00] <ignarps> ajwill, did you put a LABEL on it ?
[22:01] <ajwill> ignarps: yes I did, it's labeled WINXP
[22:01] <mongy> DarkStar1, its best to learn from shell.
[22:01] <ajwill> *labelled
[22:01] <intrader> Happy New Year, all. I want to solve a problem that started with 10.10 - the cooling fans of my laptop are always on. How can I solve this.
[22:01] <mongy> DarkStar1, there are nice guides on howtoforge.org on apache/lamp etc
[22:02] <ignarps> LABEL=WINXP /media/windows ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.utf8 0 0
[22:02] <ignarps> add something like that to /etc/fstab.  change /media/windows to what you want
[22:03] <ajwill> ignarps: my windows partition is a fat32 format
[22:03] <ignarps> you also have to manually create the mount point
[22:03] <DarkStar1> mongy: Thanks
[22:04] <misterbrown> ciao
[22:04] <ignarps> LABEL=WINXP /media/windows vfat defaults,user,dmask=027,fmask=137 0 0
[22:04] <ajwill> ignarps: does it matter where in the fstab file I put it? or can I just create a new line at the end of the file and do it there?
[22:04] <ignarps> This is from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab btw
[22:05] <ignarps> at the end of the line is fine.
[22:05] <ignarps> end of the file rather
[22:06] <Nanoha> is anybody in here really good with LVM's?
[22:07] <ajwill> ignarps: thanks! :) got that fixed!

[22:08] <Dirjel> I'm trying to upgrade to 10.10 using the alternate install disk, but it's stuck at "Unpacking ttf-indic-fonts-core".  The
[22:08] <Dirjel> terminal part of the GUI is open, and it shows a EULA for using Microsoft's fonts
[22:08] <ajwill> now that that's out of the way, I have another problem, sometimes when I boot, compiz fusion doesnt load properly, and I have no title bar on my windows... thus no way of moving, minimizing, closing, other than some shortcuts I have memorized that dont always work, how can I make sure compiz boots properly?
[22:08] <Dirjel> I can't get past that
[22:09] <pupuserc1803c> hi
[22:09] <DarkStar1> ajwill: compiz --replace
[22:09] <Dirjel> ajwill, that happens to me sometimes too.  Dunno' how to fix it, but I just alt+f2 compiz
[22:09] <soreau> ajwill: Which version of ubuntu?
[22:10] <ignarps> ajwill, I live with the compiz not working on boot issue as well.  I install "compiz fusion icon" and then I can right click the icon and say reload window manager
[22:10] <ajwill> soreau 10.10 maverik desktop right from the ubuntu.org website and installed via a pendrive created with universal pendrive creator
[22:10] <ajwill> ignarps: I do that too but it gets annoying having to do that every boot... it'd be nice to have it automatically fix it at boot
[22:11] <soreau> ajwill: Try starting compiz, closing all open windows, then go to sys>prefs>startup applications>Options tab and click Remember Currently Running Application button
[22:11] <pasquale> ciao a tutti
[22:12] <spid3rn3t> what format is this file 1275.c
[22:12] <ajwill> okay, once moment while I leave to do that...
[22:12] <spid3rn3t> pls
[22:12] <spid3rn3t> what format is this file 1275.c
[22:12] <spid3rn3t> help
[22:13] <soreau> spid3rn3t: .c files are usually text files containing source code. Try ##c
[22:13] <spid3rn3t> ok let my try
[22:13] <Dirjel> Anybody know what I need to do to get past this EULA screen?
[22:13] <soreau> Dirjel: Which one?
[22:14] <wbc> I am currently using http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6790197 this guide to compile mplayer with ffmpeg-mt, so I can enable multithreading in (s)mplayer. Where may I find the mplayer source code?
[22:14] <Dirjel> I'm trying to upgrade to 10.10 using the alternate install disk, but it's stuck at "Unpacking ttf-indic-fonts-core".
[22:14] <Dirjel> The terminal part of the GUI is open, and it shows a EULA for using Microsoft's fonts
[22:14] <WXZ> I did something, and now when I press ctrl + + I get some weird results
[22:15] <WXZ> I've had this problem before, I forgot how to fix it
[22:15] <breadcrumb> how do you make a persistant install on a usb flash drive
[22:15] <Dirjel> Don't know what to do.  I'd screencap it, but I'm in the middle of my upgrade, and when I printscreen, it says "png is not
[22:15] <Dirjel> supported"

[22:16] <santi> Hello! Some time ago I updated to Ubuntu 10.10 and now Nautilus has an aweful style (its grey and looks a bit like windows). I want to change it to the Ambiance theme but I can't find where to change, could anybody help me please?
[22:16] <aLemmer> Is UFW fine for servers?
[22:16] <soreau> Dirjel: Try Page Down? Arrow Down? Enter? Space?
[22:16] <aLemmer> santi: system > preferences.
[22:16] <spid3rn3t> nooo not working soreau
[22:16] <aLemmer> Appearance.
[22:16] <Dirjel> soreau: Hahaha, thanks.  Arrow down worked.
[22:16] <soreau> spid3rn3t: ??
[22:16] <soreau> ! work | spid3rn3t
[22:17] <soreau> Dirjel: cool
[22:17] <santi> aLemmer: I changed it there already, but Nautilus doesn't change his style
[22:17] <CaneToad> I find linux desktop incredibly unreliable...it hangs up all the time.  For example, right now, I can shift-tab between applications, and the mouse works just fine except I am unable to drag any windows or click anything, and if I plug the mouse into another computer, it works just fine.  This happens almost every day.  What can I do to diagnose?
[22:17] <WXZ> my numpad isn't working like it's supposed to
[22:17] <ajwill> soreau: didnt work, I did that, logged out and back in, compiz wasnt working
[22:17] <WXZ> when I press ctrl + + for example, it doesn't increase font size
[22:18] <Lantchips> ajwill Have u installed something like advanced compiz or something to ?
[22:18] <spid3rn3t> because i musing exploitdb files and i do no how to use this
[22:18] <spid3rn3t> file forMAT
[22:18] <spid3rn3t> SORCEAU
[22:18] <spid3rn3t> SOREAU
[22:19] <soreau> ajwill: Try installing simple-ccsm then in sys>prefs>appearance>visual effects, select None then set to Custom
[22:19] <ajwill> Lantchips: nope, only compiz and fusion icon, and I just added an extra plugins package
[22:19] <dextro_> [mc@anubis server10]$ /bin/tar cf world$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M).tar.xz world
[22:19] <dextro_> [mc@anubis server10]$
[22:19] <WXZ> ctrl + plus acts as a mouse click for some reason
[22:19] <soreau> spid3rn3t: You can use 'file' to see what type it is.
[22:19] <dextro_> oops, that tar give the error: /bin/tar: world: file changed as we read it
[22:19] <WXZ> yeah, I turned my numpad into a mouse... how do I change it?
[22:19] <dextro_> does that mean it stoped, or finished?
[22:19] <spid3rn3t> ok
[22:19] <Lantchips> ajwill because i had that problem when I installed the simple compiz and then it tried to stop the advanced compiz and when I stopped the advanced one I think I got it working like normal
[22:20] <ajwill> soreau: okay installed simple-ccsm...

[22:21] <CaneToad> I have a situation on the linux desktop where if I click and drag on ANY window or on the desktop itself, the drag highlights in my gnome terminal window, and all other mouse input is unresponsive in the desktop and other applications.
[22:21] <CaneToad> I presume it is a grab
[22:21] <CaneToad> what's the best way to get out of it?
[22:21] <ajwill> okay I tried that... gunna reboot and see if it works :)
[22:21] <DarkStar1> I just saw a reference to phpmyadmin on the system (whilst trying to locate httpd.conf) how do I access phpmyadmin?
[22:23] <soreau> CaneToad: Close the terminal?
[22:23] <CaneToad> soreau: did that, everything is still locked up with the mouse
[22:24] <soreau> CaneToad: Is it behaving as if a modifier key is pressed? (ie. ctl, alt, shift, etc)
[22:24] <rumpe1> CaneToad, are there window-controls? (close,min,max)?
[22:24] <CaneToad> soreau: no
[22:24] <CaneToad> rumpe1: yes
[22:25] <ajwill> okay that may have worked!
[22:25] <ajwill> but now that that's worked, another problem has arisen
[22:25] <gogeta> blarg
[22:25] <ajwill> the WINXP partition I mounted earlier
[22:25] <wbc2> Novice ubuntu user needs help getting Mplayer set up with VAAPI (Intel video output)!
[22:25] <ajwill> its mounting at startup
[22:26] <ajwill> however in places
[22:26] <soreau> ! enter | ajwill
[22:26] <CaneToad> soreau/rumpe1, I have an xev window open now, and if I move the mouse over it or do anything on it, it reports NO EVENTS AT ALL
[22:26] <ajwill> ubottu: okay
[22:26] <System_Default_0> ajwill: He's a bot.
[22:26] <soreau> CaneToad: Have you tried replugging the mouse?
[22:26] <CaneToad> yup
[22:26] <CaneToad> soreau: and the mouse works fine plugged in elsewhere
[22:26] <CaneToad> there's nothing in dmesg about any trouble
[22:27] <soreau> CaneToad: Does this still happen after reboot?
[22:27] <CaneToad> no, nor if I restart X
[22:27] <ajwill> okay, again in one line, I got that partition mounting at startup, but under the "Places" menu, there's two WINXP options, one takes me to the mounted partition, the other says it cannot mount it, how would I get rid of the second option?
[22:27] <soreau> CaneToad: What makes it start?
[22:27] <CaneToad> soreau: but this happens almost every day or second day...drives me bananas
[22:27] <CaneToad> soreau: I think it is related to grabs initiated by pop up menus
[22:27] <soreau> ajwill: Do you happen to have two entries in /etc/fstab for winxp?
[22:27] <CaneToad> soreau: I don't have a consistent way to start it happening yet
[22:28] <dand3h> hello friends, is there a list somewhere of all software included with ubuntu?
[22:28] <shcherbak> ajwill: fdisk -l, how many xp is there?
[22:28] <bs-pupil> Hi, I am connecting my PC through WiFi and sharing its connection to my other non-wifi PC via ethernet
[22:28] <soreau> dand3h: synaptic package manager
[22:28] <System_Default_0> ajwill: Possibly the second partition is "System Reserved" There are boot configuration and other stuff of your Windows XP.
[22:28] <bs-pupil> Is there a way to tunnel all connections from the other PC through SSH?
[22:28] <ajwill> shcherbak: only one xp
[22:29] <System_Default_0> ajwill: So, I won't recommend you to get rid of that partition.
[22:29] <ajwill> soreau: nope, only one
[22:29] <shcherbak> ajwill: have you mounted xp manually?
[22:29] <dand3h> soreau: I am just downloading ubuntu now, I just was wondering if there was some list
[22:29] <swordfish85_> t
[22:29] <ajwill> shcherbak: yes, I ran "mount /dev/sda1 /media/WINXP"
[22:29] <KM0201> dand3h: there's really not a whole lot of "programs" installed by default... but the software center has a lot that can be installed
[22:30] <CaneToad> soreau: I am not sure if this is related, but something changed in X to bring on this problem in the emacs editor, and I suspect a number of other applications might be affected   https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/emacs23/+bug/569914
[22:30] <shcherbak> ajwill: can you cd to /media/WINXP and ls?
[22:30] <goddard> im trying to setup a mail server but no mail is getting out
[22:30] <ignarps> bs-pupil, look up how to use ssh -D
[22:31] <ignarps> bs-pupil, it will let you use another machine as a socks proxy
[22:31] <ajwill> shcherbak: okay, just my windows XP files, program files, documents and settings, etc
[22:31] <dand3h> Thank you sir, Now please , I have another question, does the Java DK work with linux? Can I still program in Java and c++? Sorry for noob question!
[22:31] <shcherbak> ajwill: what is second fat/ntfs in fdisk -l?
[22:31] <bs-pupil> ignarps, I know that. But I want to transparently - for all programs - set that proxy.
[22:31] <bs-pupil> as in, system wide
[22:31] <bs-pupil> (I can do it in OS X, wondering how to do it in Ubunut)
[22:31] <rumpe1> dand3h, yes
[22:31] <CaneToad> soreau: anyway....brb because I need to restart X....
[22:32] <PsPhaKeR_> How can I give write permissions?
[22:32] <dand3h> rumpe1: Thank you very much. I hope you have nice life
[22:32] <shcherbak> PsPhaKeR_: chmod
[22:32] <ignarps> bs-pupil, Settings -> Preferences -> Network and specify your proxy
[22:32] <ajwill> shcherbak: there are none, fdisk -l only shows my one windows partition, its in the places menu (top left by default) that there's two WINXP's
[22:32] <dand3h> Thanks very much all.
[22:32] <System_Default_0> dand3h: Try #friendly-coders
[22:32] <bs-pupil> ignarps, thanks! might be what I want, will try

[22:33] <shcherbak> ajwill: god knows, check fstab, it may be result of remounting, what happen if you logout/login?

[22:34] <ignarps> goddard, you need to describe your problem better
[22:34] <ajwill> shcherbak: already have, its not remounting, and I've logged in/out about 3 times in the past 20 mins and it's persisted
[22:35] <shcherbak> PsPhaKeR_: *do NOT change any permission outside of home*
[22:35] <intrader> Weedy, can you explain?
[22:35] <wbc2> Novice ubuntu user needs help getting (S)Mplayer set up with VAAPI (Intel video output)!
[22:36] <Weedy> the i/o wait has a larger impact on load avg then cpu usage
[22:36] <Scunizi> PsPhaKeR_: is this for something in /var/www ??
[22:36] <goddard> ignarps i was using http://flurdy.com/docs/postfix/ this tutorial and it doesn't work now
[22:36] <PsPhaKeR_> ok, also when I turn the computer on it gives me alot of options to boot from. They are something like Ubuntu, Ubuntu, memtest, memtest, etc.. When I first installed Ubuntu it did not do this. Can I get rid of it?
[22:36] <PsPhaKeR_> Scunizi: /usr/local/ps3dev
[22:36] <goer> Is there a recommended app that will split video files into say 10 minute segments so they can be posted on Youtube etc?
[22:37] <ignarps> goddard, wow that is a huge list of apps you are trying to implement.  maybe start smaller :)
[22:37] <shcherbak> ajwill: i my guess nautilus is responsible, what if you umount xp?
[22:37] <ignarps> goddard, but you need to be more concise as to what exactly is not working.  We can not guess
[22:37] <soreau> ajwill: Try opening nautilus (the file browser) and do ctrl+b to open the bookmarks. Do you see the entries there?
[22:37] <goddard> ignarps im un sure how to debug to give you more info
[22:37] <Scunizi> PsPhaKeR_: and what does that file/folder do?  If it's from something that you downloaded and installed you probably used sudo to install.. and may not have needed to.
[22:38] <ignarps> goddard, well I don't know how to help you then
[22:38] <ajwill> soreau: nope neither of them are there...
[22:38] <ajwill> shcherbak: okay gunna try that
[22:38] <PsPhaKeR_> It is a file I made through the terminal (sudo mkdir ps3dev). I am installing the ps3 toolchain. It will store my compiler stuff.
[22:39] <Scunizi> PsPhaKeR_: the new menu on boot is Grub and it looks like you had a kernel update at some point.. the most current kernel is the top one.. good to keep 2.. when you get 3 you can remove the oldest through synaptic package manager
[22:39] <soreau> ajwill: Do you see them on the left pane in the file browser? Can you right click there?
[22:39] <goddard> ignarps i can tell you whats in the log files
[22:39] <ignarps> goddard, make a pastebin with your details.
[22:39] <PsPhaKeR_> Scunizi: can I have it autoboot the top one?
[22:39] <Scunizi> PsPhaKeR_: perhaps it's better located in /home where you don't have to compromise the security of your machine.
[22:39] <ignarps> !work | goddard
[22:39] <Scunizi> PsPhaKeR_: it will auto boot from the top one.. ie.. should after a few seconds.
[22:39] <ajwill> soreau: I do, okay...
[22:40] <shcherbak> goer: ffmpeg to split videos
[22:40] <shcherbak> goer: or mancoder http://www.misterhowto.com/index.php?category=Computers&subcategory=Video&article=trim_or_split_with_mencoder
[22:40] <goer> shcherbak: thnx. Will it o auto/batch, as I need to do many videos?
[22:41] <PsPhaKeR_> Also, when I boot my computer up it takes about 3-4 minutes to launch into Ubuntu (in the 3-4 minutes the screen stays black and flashs some text, then dissapears, then goes into Ubuntu
[22:41] <ajwill> soreau: yes I can
[22:41] <PsPhaKeR_> Also it has to be in usr/local/ps3dev
[22:41] <goer> shcherbak:thnx friend
[22:41] <shcherbak> goer: look at link, i guess yes
[22:41] <shcherbak> goer: thanks
[22:41] <soreau> ajwill: Can you try to remove the faulty entry?
[22:42] <bs-pupil> ignarps, it seems it works for my pc with the wifi connection, but all connections from the PC I share internet with seem to go directly into the net
[22:42] <ajwill> soreau: it says only root can unmount it
[22:42] <PsPhaKeR_> Also that chmod does not grant write permissions
[22:42] <wbc2> Novice ubuntu user needs help getting (S)Mplayer set up with VAAPI (Intel video output)!
[22:42] <intrader> I am looking at `cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THM/temperature`; it is low 47C. Trip_points are 94C; or this ic converted incorrectly?.I don't understand, my load average is:'1.17 1.12 1.21 2/342 10797'; low cpu usage (around 4%), the cooling fans of my laptop are always on. What should I try to solve this problem?
[22:43] <Rotham> hey... On lucid is it easy to upgrade from python 2.65 to 2.66?
[22:43] <soreau> ajwill: Ok, pastebin the output of 'mount' from your terminal to ubuntu.pastebin.com
[22:43] <Scunizi> PsPhaKeR_: 3-4 minutes is a different issue.. just means something isn't setup right.. do a full update with .. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ... and see if that helps at all.. permissions are done with .. sudo chown <your_user_name>:root /location/of/file  .. that will make you part owner I believe.
[22:44] <ignarps> bs-pupil, I don't understand. one would direct while the other uses the proxy on the other machine
checked i out. I need a gui as mencoder is terminal I think
[22:44] <PsPhaKeR_> ok, will see
[22:44] <ajwill> oh I have to go... I'll have to fix this when I get back from band practice tonight, thanks for your help everyone!!
[22:45] <bs-pupil> ignarps, I want to transparently route all traffic from the other PC through the proxy.
[22:45] <bs-pupil> whereas "other machine" is really a console.
[22:45] <PsPhaKeR_> Scunizi: I did that thing in the terminal, (the update one) and now what?

[22:46] <intrader> Re, python question, synaptic should do it - mine is showing 2.6.6 as installed by 10.10
[22:46] <ignarps> bs-pupil, using ssh -D to setup a socks proxy should do most things.  to pass everything you would have to setup the other console box to do nat
[22:47] <Scunizi> PsPhaKeR_: did it update a lot? did it ask for a reboot? if not then you won't be able to tell until the next reboot if it did anything.. typing dmesg > /home/Desktop/dmesg.txt will output a lot of info on the boot process to look for errors.
[22:47] <mongy> I ran out of *
[22:47] <mongy> thanks
[22:47] <DrGrov> Good evening
[22:47] <ignarps> good morning
[22:47] <DrGrov> Would need some brainstorming help. Thinking about getting myself a Thinkpad X40 for a cheap price.
[22:48] <DrGrov> Should I run Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook Edition or perhaps even 10.10 with KDE ?
[22:48] <PsPhaKeR_> bash: no such file or directory
[22:49] <Scunizi> PsPhaKeR_: sorry .. dmesg > /home/<username>/Desktop/dmesg.txt
[22:49] <DrGrov> Which one would be better for the X40?
[22:50] <Oer> DrGrov, is it in this list ? http://webapps.ubuntu.com/certification/release/10.10/laptops/
[22:51] <DrGrov> Oer: Yes, it is. My cousin has used Ubuntu 9.04 on it. So pretty sure 10.10 works as well
[22:51] <Oer> nice
[22:51] <DrGrov> Oer: But of course double checking now.
[22:51] <PsPhaKeR_> Wow, just looked at that file... I don't get one bit of it :| Can I paste it to github and show it to you?
[22:51] <Scunizi> PsPhaKeR_: ok..
[22:51] <intrader> Weedy, would you mind explaining how the i/o would skew the load average?
[22:51] <Ryu_Kurisu> DrGrov: Should you would like too choose between a light/medium weight OS or Heavyweight OS? :P
[22:51] <Scunizi> PsPhaKeR_: or pastebin.com
[22:51] <ignarps> intrader, load is more of a dummy light
[22:52] <DrGrov> Oer: It is not on that list but usually IBM Thinkpads are well supported.
[22:52] <ignarps> intrader, you can not look at load alone to figure out where your resources are being used
[22:52] <DrGrov> Ryu_Kurisu: That is the question actually. I will be using it for my studies on a daily basis.
[22:52] <PsPhaKeR_> Scinizi:          https://gist.github.com/69cc79a7a8668909363f
[22:52] <Weedy> intrader: the loadavg calculation considers it more important
[22:52] <DrGrov> Ryu_Kurisu: So it would not need to be too heavy but I would prefer surely something nice like KDE, GNOME or XFCE on it.
[22:53] <Weedy> DrGrov: get XFCE
[22:53] <intrader> ignarps, I am looking using top and the CPU load is rarely above 4%
[22:53] <Weedy> if it's not shiney enough get gnome
[22:53] <DrGrov> Weedy: Why would you suggest XFCE?
[22:53] <Weedy> but starting with kde sucks if you change your mind
[22:54] <Oer> DrGrov, i google on the specs, lightweight desktop like weedy says or netbook like you suggested
[22:54] <ignarps> what does wa show ?
[22:54] <Weedy> XFCE is lightweight
[22:54] <Weedy> my netbook runs netbookremix
[22:54] <intrader> Weedy, thanks for info.
[22:54] <Oer> try them both live :-)
[22:54] <Weedy> gnomeshell sucks :/
[22:54] <shcherbak> DrGrov: On Ubuntu you have comfort of trying and desktop/window manager, from Xmonad to latest Kde, with no effort.
[22:54] <Ryu_Kurisu> Weedy: Not anymore I've heard...it's mediumweight like gnome...
[22:54] <Weedy> mutter is a crashy SOB
[22:54] <aLemmer> XFCE falls far behind many other lightweight WMs, though.
[22:55] <aLemmer> In terms of resource usage.
[22:55] <Weedy> FLUXBOX
[22:55] <aLemmer> IceWM.
[22:55]  * Weedy put on his hardcore hat
[22:55] <Weedy> acutally
[22:55] <Ryu_Kurisu> Weedy: DrGrov: You might like Lubuntu :)
[22:55] <Weedy> hardcore would be twm
[22:55] <goddard> what is a zombie process
[22:55] <ignarps> intrader, you can also run. "vmstat 5"  and look at the last 4 colums .  User System idle Wait time.
[22:55] <DrGrov> shcherbak: Yes that is what I am doing on my desktop computer. But this would be for my IBM Thinkpad X40 which I am about to trade in for.
[22:55] <Weedy> i've used twm
[22:55] <shcherbak> Awesome above all!
[22:55] <Weedy> not bad once skinned
[22:56] <DrGrov> Fluxbox I really love, have had it for several years on my old hardware before I got myself the HP xw9300 Workstation.
[22:56] <ignarps> goddard, you can google that question
[22:56] <goddard> ignarps i just irced it instead :D
[22:56] <DrGrov> How is Netbook Remix actually working out, Weedy ?
[22:57] <Weedy> crashy as fuck :/
[22:57] <scottie_> I am a new user trying to find help regarding "problem loading page" errors.
[22:57] <Weedy> mutter restarts atleast 4-5 times a day
[22:57] <Scunizi> PsPhaKeR_: that list is what most every machine goes through to boot.. I can't tell anything by the list.. but someone should be able to parse most of it for you.. sorry.
[22:57] <shcherbak> Weedy: dont wake up ops...
[22:58] <scottie_> Anyone have any ideas? I'm trying to secure my Belking router, but get errors every time I click on a link from their help page.
[22:58] <PsPhaKeR_> Ok
[22:58] <goddard> scottie_ dont use there help page
[22:58] <PsPhaKeR_> but something would be better if i could auto-boot the first choice in the list when you boot up
[22:58] <scottie_> How do I do it?
[23:00] <goddard> scottie_ move your mouse away and avoid clicking
[23:00] <scottie_> it's nowhere near...
[23:00] <realubot> Is there any drawback using Mutt instead of Evolution in Ubuntu? Is there any important feature that Mutt is missing?
[23:00] <intrader> The `top` list is showing something called 'beam' using 5%. What is 'beam'?
[23:00] <DrGrov> Weedy: So then better to go for standard 10.10 and configure it from there?
[23:01] <KM0201> PsPhaKeR_: it does autoboot the first choice if you don;t select anything
[23:01] <wrd> realubot: i personally think mutt is a bit crummy if you want to use pop servers, you have to setup a mail server + fetchmail for it to beworking fast (2 yrs ago)
[23:01] <Weedy> DrGrov: i'm still running it
[23:01] <Weedy> it's shiney
[23:01] <Weedy> :3
[23:02] <DrGrov> Weedy: Ok, good.
[23:02] <DrGrov> I will give 10.10 a go tomorrow if I get the X40 by then.
[23:02] <DrGrov> I hope the little monster machine will deliver
[23:02] <alberto_> hi everyon
[23:02] <alberto_> e
[23:02] <ignarps> DrGrov, be bold.  Install 11.04
[23:03] <Weedy> DrGrov: i want a X60t
[23:03] <realubot> wrd: That doesn't sound good.
[23:04] <alberto_> I found out that the oldest versions of Ubuntu works faster than the last one, is it just me?
[23:05] <goltoof> alberto_:  probly because of all the features you're not getting?
[23:05] <scottie_> I have 10.10 and I think it's slow.
[23:05] <DrGrov> ignarps: Sure, could install basically anything bleeding edge since I will still not need to use it for about a week or so.
[23:05] <DrGrov> Weedy: I hope the 200 eur I will trade in for for the X40 is not too much.
[23:05] <alberto_> goltoof, what do you mean?
[23:06] <Scunizi> PsPhaKeR_: you should file a bug about the boot time and attach the dmesg report.. 10.10 is suppose to be a faster booting system.
[23:06] <wrd> realubot: well I've got 6k messages on my pop account ... mutt wants to download all of em
[23:06] <PsPhaKeR_> Well, thanks for now.
[23:06] <goddard> my postfix master config file has a content_filter=
[23:06] <wrd> realubot: but you can keep the mailserver local.
[23:06] <goddard> this is giving an error
[23:07] <intrader> Please anyone, what is the 'beam' application? I can't find information about it; is uses 3 to 6% of cpu
[23:07] <goltoof> alberto_:  i think someone else would need to elaborate.. but there are numerous factors involved.. the system you're running, what services you need/don't need..  ie, there are a lot of things enabled by default that you could turn off and make it run even faster than older revs.. can't think of any examples though
[23:07] <scottie_> Anyone know how to go about securing a network? I can't do it through the links on my router's help page.
[23:07] <goltoof> alberto_:  i run 10.10 and it's bangin!  but i got a bangin system though..
[23:07] <goddard> scottie_ usually you go to the yours ip address and login
[23:08] <realubot> wrd: The Mutt homepage says it has pop support: http://www.mutt.org/#features
[23:08] <goltoof> intrader:  apt-cache search beam
[23:08] <induz>  and Now i want to install Xp as guest OS...I have 200 MB for XP of 1 Gb total...what should be my storage settings??? i am going to include screen shot after this
[23:09] <alberto_> I asked it because it seemed so strange. I removed everything i didn't need, but still older revs work faster. I didn't know if it was just me, or something normal
[23:09] <scottie_> Thanks goddard. If it's the ip address I looked up, it gave me the "problem loading page" error, too. But I'll check it out again.
[23:09] <intrader> goltoof, why is it executing as search?
[23:10] <p_res> induz: Are you using VirtualBox or something?
[23:10] <realubot> wrd: "For "once in a while" remote access mutt's built-in support for POP/ IMAP is nice, but for frequent/ high volume POP access MRA like fetchmail are recommended."
[23:10] <ignarps> alberto_, works faster is a loaded statement.  faster at what ?  and what metrics do you have to compare. Or is it just perceived faster to you ?
[23:10] <induz> http://i.imgur.com/KYHDi.png
[23:10] <induz>  VB
[23:10] <induz> p_res, Vbox
[23:10] <p_res> induz: I hope you don't mean 200MB for allocated ram?
[23:11] <goltoof> intrader:  that's one way to look for a package, but i'm not finding a "beam" application
[23:11] <realubot> wrd: What does "one in a while mean"? One a day, week, month?
[23:11] <scottie_> ignarps- I just switched from windows to 10.10 and it's noticeably slower.
[23:11] <induz> i mean 200 MB for allocate RAM
[23:11] <precubcr> hola
[23:11] <precubcr> alquien por aqui ?
[23:11] <alberto_> less CPU and RAM used, as an example. I still have 512ram and it's such a pain
[23:11] <goltoof> !es | precubcr
[23:11] <p_res> induz: That's not much, even for Win XP guest. I have several XP guests on my system. I also only have 1GB total ram but usually allocate at least 384MB to XP.
[23:12] <intrader> goltoof, 'How to use apt-cache' tells me 'This command is not to be used by common users.'
[23:12] <ignarps> scottie_, again what is slower?
[23:12] <goltoof> intrader:  lol.... ok
[23:12] <goltoof> intrader:  just type  "apt-cache search [string]
[23:12] <smallfoot-> why isnt Linux kernel 2.6.37 available for Maverick 10.10 in the kernel ppa?
[23:12] <goltoof> "
[23:12] <scottie_> It definitely takes longer to load pages when browsing.
[23:12] <ignarps> alberto_, yeah for lack of ram you would have to turn off a lot of services like readahead and other apps that expect people to have lots of ram
[23:12] <precubcr> hello
[23:13] <induz> ok I am going to allocate 350 MB RAM for Xp
[23:13] <precubcr> i am new in ubuntu
[23:13] <p_res> induz: If you plan to not do anything else whilst running the VM, allocate 512MB.
[23:13] <goltoof> intrader:  [string] being the keyword to search for, beam
[23:13] <p_res> induz: Use 384MB.
[23:13] <induz> 384 MB final
[23:13] <precubcr> i have a lilt better machine
[23:13] <p_res> induz: ;-)
[23:13] <precubcr> i have a 4 gb o ram
[23:13] <psyt7> hi! I'm trying to get ipv6 working in Ubuntu. thought it was turned on by default, but cannot access pages like http://www.v6.facebook.com etc. ipv6 works in win7 (on my other partition) but not in ubuntu.
[23:14] <goltoof> scottie_:  i don't see the use in you griping about things being slow, if you have something specific to address, that's more what this room is for
[23:14] <induz> but I have 80GB HD on which my Ubuntu also run...how much should i allocate to XP?
[23:14] <intrader> goltoof, I am thoroughly confused - I am looking at why 'beam' is using 5% of cpu
[23:14] <p_res> induz: Just the default 10GB and it will expand as required.
[23:15] <induz> how can i allocate 10GB to Xp?
[23:15] <scottie_> I was answering alberto's comment because I have the same version and he thought it was slow. I'm not griping. I am trying to figure out why I get so many "problem loading page". Just got ubuntu. Trying to figure it out. I like it so far despite the learning curve.
[23:15] <p_res> induz: When you setup the machine, you will get this option presented to you on screen.
[23:15] <ignarps> intrader, do you have erlang-base installed ?
[23:15] <alberto_> what would you guys suggest for a 512mb ram machine? I can't decide between crunchbang/xfce/lxde/ecc, i just don't know what is better (not too heavy, not too minimal)
[23:16] <goltoof> intrader:   are you in terminal
[23:16] <aLemmer> alberto: try IceVM.
[23:16] <jospams> how do i set up a static ip using network tools?
[23:16] <aLemmer> alberto: I mean "IceWM."
[23:16] <p_res> alberto_: What is wrong the vanilla Ubuntu?
[23:16] <induz> I go to VB--Setting-->storage-->SATA controller and IDE controller??
[23:16] <intrader> goltoof, I got top running
[23:17] <guampa> alberto_: the less minimal is xfce
[23:17] <p_res> induz: System > Base memory.

[23:17] <jospams> I am trying to add DNS servers, should I separate them by commas?
[23:17] <wrd> realubot: well opening my 6k mailbox takes about half an hour (900mb)
[23:17] <p_res> alberto_: Keep in mind XFCE uses almost the same amount of ram as GNOME these days anyway.
[23:17] <wrd> realubot: if you delete your mails on your pop account regulary it shouldn't be a problem ..
[23:17] <induz> memory is done to 384MB..now the storage

[23:18] <negev> hi can i deleted /var/cache/apt/archives/* without breaking anything?
[23:18] <wrd> realubot: you can try it yourself start mutt hit 'c' and enter your mail account details (pop://username@server)
[23:18] <negev> s/eleted/elete
[23:18] <wrd> realubot: and then have a look yourself
[23:18] <M0nk3Ee> can someone tell me if i am running ubuntu 9.10 and am fully updated what kernel should i be running, whats the easiest way of finding out what the latest available is?
[23:18] <p_res> induz: If you have the VM already setup then your storage settings should be set already.
[23:18] <intrader> ignarps,  how do I find out if I have erlang installed, I don't recall installing it. - I did find that 'beam' could be related to erlang
[23:18] <ignarps> jospams, there is tons of documentation.  example ?
[23:19] <jospams> ignarps, network tools
[23:19] <jospams> ignarps, I am trying to setup a static ip
[23:19] <alberto_> i can't work with vanilla ubuntu because i have to use the swap too early, everything slows down, and the CPU isn't in a better position. That's why i need something "less-heavy", but still not too minimal
[23:19] <delac> any way to configure tightvncserver not to require password? I'm trying to use tightvncserver instead of x11vnc in this script http://paste.ubuntu.com/551242/
[23:19] <sapsan> Does anybody knows how to remove Artist X?
[23:19] <ignarps> jospams, okay and you want to do that with a gui or cli ?
[23:19] <p_res> alberto_: I have no idea what you mean by that post?!?

[23:20] <Jordan_U> alberto_: Try lubuntu.
[23:20] <breadcrumb> induz, you can't resize a disk once you've made it. delete it and make a new one and set the size you want.
[23:20] <jospams> ignarps, i have the primary and secondary dns address

[23:21] <shcherbak> alberto_: swapoff, metacity --replace, use xfce
[23:21] <jospams> ignarps, should I separate them with commas
[23:21] <p_res> alberto_: I did. But that post made no sense.
[23:21] <induz> should i create a new HD or use the xisiting one
[23:21] <ignarps> jospams, I just looked and the tooltip says to seperate them with commas
[23:21] <p_res> induz: I'd suggest start setting up a new machine from scratch.
[23:22] <jospams> ok let me try that
[23:22] <alberto_> i'm sorry, i don't always make correct english sentences
[23:22] <jospams> ignarps, is the address local address or internet address
[23:22] <ignarps> jospams, hover your mouse over the input box.  it will give a desc on what it wants
[23:22] <p_res> alberto_: ;-)
[23:22] <jospams> i guess its local address
[23:23] <ignarps> jospams, I don't understand the question
[23:23] <induz> p_res, I am setting up a new machine of VB...should i creat a new HD of 10Gb or use exisiting HD??
[23:23] <sapsan> DOES ANYBODY KNOW HOW TO  DELETE ARTIST X FROM SYSTEM?
[23:23] <p_res> induz: New hdd.
[23:23] <p_res> sapsan: Don't use caps.
[23:23] <rumpe1> sapsan, TRY CAPS-LOCK
[23:24] <intrader> ignarps,  i looked in synaptinc and it shows that erlang-base is instlaled. Maybe that is running 'beam'
[23:24] <induz> ok, Its working now as i have created a new HD
[23:24] <induz> of 10 GB
[23:24] <Weedy> anyone using the pidgin ppa notice there are no account menus under the account menu?
[23:24] <p_res> induz: Great!
[23:24] <trism> intrader: the beam (and erlang) packages are used by desktop couch, which is a database system used by some of the apps (such as tomboy, evolution and gwibber before maverick), because it can be then synced with ubuntu one...I usually uninstall it myself because it does take a bunch of cpu time
[23:24] <shcherbak> sapsan: artist x
[23:24] <wrd> Weedy: everything here actually
[23:24] <realubot> wrd: Yeah, but the Mutt homepage says No SSL after POP. Does it lack of encryption?
[23:24] <ignarps> intrader, that is what I got from this.  apt-file search beam | grep '\/beam$'
[23:24] <induz> Xp is loading files on VB now thanksa guys
[23:25] <calum> I am having sound problems in Mupen64plus. I am using default configuration but the sound is not smooth, it is all choppy
[23:25] <ignarps> intrader, apt-file is not installed by default.  you have to add it
[23:25] <p_res> induz: Cheers. Glad you got it working. I'm doing the same thing as we speak.
[23:25] <Weedy> wrd: i do have an account menu, it just doesn't work like it's supposed to
[23:25] <jospams> ignarps, after i select method: manual, click add, enter address will it be my local address or ip address
[23:25] <p_res> induz: I'm currently installing the Service Pack 3.
[23:25] <kaddi_> hi is there a way to determine the installed programs on a non-booted install? LIke from a live-cd or something?
[23:25] <wrd> Weedy: manage accounts | enable accounts?
[23:25] <induz> its asking me to format the HD as NTFS
[23:25] <jospams> ignarps, sorry for confusion early on
[23:25] <p_res> induz: Yep. Do that.
[23:25] <M0nk3Ee> Weedy: it says i'm running 2.6.31-22-386 which is the latest then for 9.10... will 2.6.35 make it to 9.10 or because 9.10 is the stable release it will freeze there?
[23:25] <induz> sp3 means u r almost done
[23:26] <alberto_> another problem that i found, is that everytime i turn on my computer it doesn't work at the first time. A black screen stops everything right after the boot choice, and i have to manually shut down and turn on again. Than everything works perfectly. It happens everyday, and nobody in the italian forum gave me an answer.
[23:26] <Weedy> wat
[23:26] <induz> p_res, I am new to Ubuntu
[23:26] <ignarps> jospams, ip address
[23:26] <Weedy> i thought .32 was for 9.10
[23:26] <p_res> induz: We're all new at some point mate. ;-)
[23:26] <Weedy> wrd: they account's work, but now i need an option from the menu
[23:26] <sapsan> rumpe1 Right now it doesn't work CAPS LOCK
[23:26] <KM0201> kaddi_: why is this a concern? just curious
[23:26] <ignarps> kaddi_, boot the system then do chroot /mnt.  you can then run any commands like the system is up
[23:26] <rww> M0nk3Ee: linux-image-generic is frozen at 2.6.31 for 9.10.
[23:27] <induz> p_res, actually i wanted to use MS Words 2007... and It gave me headache on wine so i have decided to use VB
[23:27] <jospams> <IP_ADDRESS>?
[23:27] <rumpe1> sapsan, o.O
[23:27] <Weedy> rww: what is running .32?
[23:27] <intrader> ignarps, I do use ubuntu-one; is that using beam?
[23:27] <goltoof> !noob
[23:27] <rww> Weedy: 10.04
[23:27] <M0nk3Ee> Weedy: / rww thanks
[23:27] <Weedy> oh
[23:27] <goltoof> oh snap
[23:27] <rww> Weedy: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=linux-image-generic
[23:27] <induz> most of the work from school are on XP
[23:27] <ignarps> intrader, no idea on that.  Sorry
[23:27] <p_res> induz: I use several XP VM's. But I only setup one and then clone the vdi using the vboxmanage clonevdi tool.
[23:27] <kaddi_> KM0201: my system died and I have an almost complete image of the dead drive, I would like to get a list of what I used to have installed from the image so that I won't spend three weeks trying to remmeber what I had installed
[23:27] <crash1hd_> trying to update telepathy-butterfly to its latest version I have insalled the ppa but I still cant see it in the spm
[23:27] <starfishblub> induz is correct most schools use xp
[23:27] <goltoof> intrader:  have you tried killing the process?
[23:27] <jospams> ignarps, <IP_ADDRESS>?
[23:28] <ignarps> jospams, I don't know your network information.  sorry
[23:28] <goltoof> goltoof:  kill it, see if it messes anything up
[23:28] <KM0201> kaddi_: so you want to know installed "packages" not installed programs
[23:28] <wrd> Weedy: sorry not getting you
[23:28] <calum> My sound is all crackly and choppy in Mupen64plus on the default config. Has anyone got the same issue?
[23:28] <intrader> goltoof, I will kill it see what happens?
[23:28] <sapsan> rumpe1 What do you mean?
[23:28] <goltoof> intrader:  sometimes another app will have another process running along side it
[23:28] <jospams> what is search domains?
[23:28] <starfishblub> Whats the difference between a package and a program installer
[23:28] <goltoof> intrader:  yes, kill it
[23:28] <jospams> ignarps, what is search domains?
[23:28] <rumpe1> sapsan, what is "artist x"?
[23:28] <shcherbak> kaddi_: kaddi_ you can dd drive
[23:28] <kaddi_> KM0201: yes, that's what I meant (to type) but obviously I said something different?
[23:29] <induz> where can i find that tool p_res ??
[23:29] <ignarps> jospams, domain suffix search order
[23:29] <KM0201> kaddi_: you said programs
[23:29] <p_res> induz: It's installed with VirtualBox.
[23:29] <shcherbak> sapsan: yeah, what is it?
[23:29] <DarkStar1> starfishblub: a program installer does something. A Package contains some thing(s)
[23:29] <kaddi_> shcherbak: i have as full an image as I can get with ddrescue..
[23:29] <p_res> induz: Has to be used on command-line.
[23:29] <rumpe1> starfishblub, a package is something, your package-manager can handle
[23:29] <starfishblub> What is the format of a file installer in ubuntu
[23:29] <ignarps> jospams, if you don't know what domain suffix search order is.  You probably don't need to use it
[23:30] <goltoof> intrader:  think if there's anything else you installed that might require some weird thing like that
[23:30] <sapsan> rumpe1 It is new version of ubuntu http://www.artistx.org/site2/
[23:30] <jospams> ignarps, what would I type for google to be my search domain
[23:30] <ignarps> starcoder, ubuntu uses debian based packages.  .deb files.
[23:30] <DarkStar1> jospams: a suffix being the .<format/type> at the end of a name such as .exe]
[23:30] <ignarps> jospams, it has nothing to do with web search.  leave it blank
[23:30] <p_res> induz: Just type "vboxmanage clonevdi ~/sourcevdi /destinationvdi"
[23:30] <starfishblub> How do I make one?
[23:30] <kaddi_> KM0201: sorry about that, I meant to say packages
[23:31] <p_res> induz: And change the source and destination text to suit your system of course.
[23:31] <intrader> goltoof, done that - cpu load went down by 5%-  The only thing is that erlang-base is reported as installed
[23:31] <shcherbak> kaddi_: ls /bin/ /usr/bin/ /sbin/ or ls -lR /* | grep -rwx
[23:31] <ignarps> jospams, if you want to learn what it really is.  google. "domain suffix search order"
[23:31] <starfishblub> How to I put my compiled programs in a package for install?
[23:31] <KM0201> kaddi_: there's a command you can run, and it will print a list of packages to a file on your desktop.
[23:31] <shcherbak> kaddi_: */usr/sbin/*
[23:31] <Ioniz3D> hello
[23:31] <alberto_>  another problem that i found, is that everytime i turn on my computer it doesn't work at the first time. A black screen stops everything right after the boot choice, and i have to manually shut down and turn on again. Than everything works perfectly. It happens everyday, and nobody in the italian forum gave me an answer.
[23:31] <KM0201> but i'm not sure if it works in CLI
[23:32] <ignarps> starfishblub, google how to create a debian package
[23:32] <goltoof> intrader:  http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/i386/erlang-inets/filelist
[23:32] <KM0201> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=261366
[23:32] <KM0201> kaddi_: see above
[23:32] <rumpe1> sapsan, overwrite grub-bootloader with the bootloader of any other system and format your ubuntu-partitions
[23:32] <kaddi_> KM0201: thanks checking it now
[23:32] <induz> p_res, its little complicated for me now
[23:33] <p_res> induz: Stick to what you're comfortable with for now.
[23:34] <KM0201> kaddi_: that actualy looks pretty eays... i just tried the first part(to make the list) and it works.... i guess the only issue is getting the list from the borked hard drive, to the "virgin" hard drive
[23:34] <Desp> Hi
[23:34] <p_res> Desp: Hi.
[23:34] <intrader> goltoof, I will uninstall erlang - probably auto installed by something
[23:34] <goltoof> intrader: erlang is a prog language
[23:34] <sapsan> rumpe1 you mean to download another version?
[23:35] <goltoof> intrader:  don't think uninstalling it will help, maybe, but probly not the best approach
[23:35] <Citizenwarrior> Just replaced my 3GB of RAM with 4GB of RAM and on boot if I F2 into my system the bios shows 4GB of RAM but my Ubuntu 10.04  2.6.32-27-generic only shos 3.0GiB of Memory under system monitor... I have rebooted a few times... Whats Up?
[23:35] <goltoof> intrader:  see this  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=664923
[23:35] <induz> I see two partitions on My Xp [1] is 10229 Mb and other is[2] 8Mb..why so?
[23:36] <Desp> how can I create a swap partition after installing ubuntu 10.10 beside win7 ? I have shrunk the partition but gparted says that I can only have 4 prim partitions
[23:36] <p_res> induz: Not too sure, probably ignore it if it is only 8MB. Not worth the trouble.
[23:36] <ignarps> Desp, create an extended part or make a file bases swap file
[23:36] <induz> p_res, How can i start internet on guest Machine...will it be automatic settings or i have to setup the NIC card?
[23:36] <rumpe1> sapsan, you wanted to delete it ...  or is it running in live-mode? (directly from dvd)
[23:36] <DarkStar1> Citizenwarrior: Is it 32/64 bit ubuntu?
[23:36] <Citizenwarrior> 32
[23:37] <rumpe1> Citizenwarrior, that's why
[23:37] <intrader> goltoof, yes, can it propagate from one machine to another. I installed in another machine on the same net.
[23:37] <kaddi_> KM0201: the challenge is getting this to work for a non booted partition..
[23:37] <Desp> ok ignarps I will try to
[23:37] <KM0201> kaddi_: oh.. yeah i dont think you're gonna have any luck there.. the system can't boot at all? even recovery mode?
[23:37] <goltoof> intrader:  o_0   doubt it
[23:37] <alberto_> #ubuntu-it
[23:37] <ignarps> Desp, if you don't think you  will actually need to use the swap space.   A file bases on is easy to setup
[23:37] <p_res> induz: Should do it automatically after you install the Guest Additions.
[23:37] <sapsan> rumpe1 no, it is already installed on HD
[23:37] <Citizenwarrior> rumpel, DarkStar1, Is 32bit limited in what it can see?
[23:38] <induz> p_res, do u think USB are going to work on guest Xp via VBox?
[23:38] <kaddi_> KM0201: nope it's in an eternal bootloop saying sectors are bad when I try
[23:38] <rumpe1> sapsan, anything else on your HD?
[23:38] <p_res> induz: Should do. It does on mine.
[23:38] <rumpe1> sapsan, i mean... any other operating system?
[23:38] <DarkStar1> 32 bits can only address 4GB of memory. but a system won't reflect the full 4Gb for reasons (and I'm not sure I correct about this) of reserving some part of it or something along a similar note
[23:38] <intrader> goltoof, I try uninstalling it with synaptic and after reboot see it 'beam' comes back.
[23:38] <goltoof> intrader:  worth a shot :/
[23:38] <KM0201> kaddi_: could you boot a live CD, chmod the drive, and run that command?
[23:38] <induz> p_res, it would be good if it does it on its own.
[23:39] <sapsan> rumpe1 no, absolutely no!
[23:39] <p_res> induz: Yes it does. But you have to install Guest Additions.
[23:39] <kaddi_> KM0201: I have a full image on an external drive here atm
[23:39] <rumpe1> sapsan, then you can also delete it by installing any other system in its place
[23:39] <induz> how can i install gues adds on?
[23:39] <Desp> ignarps, I have 4 GB RAM kind fare
[23:39] <Citizenwarrior> DarkStar1 bummer... so was that a wast of cash or will I see any improvement
[23:39] <induz> p_res, How?
[23:39] <kaddi_> KM0201: the sys partition has been mounted to /media/sys.. do you think I can do it this way?
[23:39] <rumpe1> induz, usually theres an enty in the menu on the top
[23:39] <ignarps> Desp, that doesn't tell me if you plan on using swap :)
[23:40] <rumpe1> induz, on the top while vm is running
[23:40] <DarkStar1> Citizenwarrior: Or you could update to 64bit OS..
[23:40] <p_res> induz: When booted into you VM, at the top of the VB window select Devices > Install Guest Additions.
[23:40] <induz> rume1, ok
[23:40] <Desp> yes I do ignarps but the hard way :)
[23:40] <induz> p_res, good i will do that
[23:40] <Citizenwarrior> I would have to upgrade hardware, and the cash isn't there
[23:40] <goltoof> p_res:  dangit p_res,, i just finished typing that :P
[23:40] <induz> its still loading Xp
[23:40] <kaddi_> KM0201: how would I proceed with that? force mount the different partitions onto /bin /usr and such?
[23:40] <DarkStar1> I hardly doubt that.. Unles you're using pre 2002 hardware
[23:41] <rumpe1> Citizenwarrior, do you need 4GB? ... for most tasks you don't need so much...
[23:41] <induz> is Vb is better than wine??
[23:41] <DarkStar1> Citizenwarrior: I hardly doubt that.. Unles you're using pre 2002 hardware
[23:41] <goltoof> induz:  depends on the app, how much resource you need etc
[23:41] <goltoof> induz:  i use xp vm exclusively for all microsoft junk
[23:41] <p_res> induz: For some things yes. It really depends what you're doing in WINE and VB.
[23:41] <induz> I just want to finish my scholl work mostly on Office 2007
[23:42] <goltoof> induz:  why?  why not open office?  or google docs?
[23:42] <p_res> induz: Tell your school to install Linux!
[23:42] <DarkStar1> guys correct me if I'm wrong here but wasn't Pentium 3 the last 32bit CPU?
[23:42] <Citizenwarrior> DarkStar1 I was going to do some Virtual Box stuff
[23:42] <sapsan> rumpe1, no, I can't, I tried to install wndows XP, it says error occured check your disk F, which is my HD
[23:42] <DarkStar1> or was the P$ also 32?
[23:42] <CNLiberal> DarkStar1:  Is that Tison?
[23:42] <p_res> DarkStar1: Noi.
[23:42] <induz> p_res, i used wine but most of my formatted .doc file were destorted on Wine
[23:42] <p_res> No
[23:42] <BlaDe^> my laptop died a minute ago and I rebooted and it said it couldn't load most of the applets
[23:42] <rumpe1> sapsan, then check your HD and/or your install-media
[23:42] <DarkStar1> P4*
[23:42] <BlaDe^> time/date for example is missing.. how can I fix it ?
[23:43] <p_res> induz: Can't help you mate. I avoid MSOffice at all costs.
[23:43] <calum> Hi. A thread for my choppy sound problem in Mupen64plus suggested to use Alsa. I am confused as to how to use Alsa with Mupen64Plus instead of pulseaudio
[23:43] <induz> p_res, I use OO but when i get something from school, its all[format] gone
[23:43] <xim_> goltoof, i tend to think openoffice has a lot of really annoying issues.....but the same is true for each edition of word that microsoft makes worse and worse every two years
[23:43] <p_res> induz: Yeah that can happen.
[23:43] <shcherbak> BlaDe^: gnome-panel --replace, what effect?
[23:43] <sapsan> rumpe1 what media?  Or download a bootCD with HD-check-utils
[23:44] <p_res> I generally have a personal rule. Use OO for OO docs and MSOffice for MSOffice docs. Then you can't go wrong.

[23:45] <ignarps> DarkStar1, the P4 was 32bit
[23:45] <induz> p_res, thats a good rule, i will follow that now on
[23:45] <KM0201> xim_: it always works for me... when ran w/ gksudo, i save it and it saves my config
[23:45] <dosydoo1234> hi
[23:45] <kaddi_> KM0201: how would I do the chmod thing?
[23:45] <goltoof> xim_:  bottom line is they don't want their format to get along with anyone else..
[23:45] <ignarps> DarkStar1, well the early ones where 32bit
[23:45] <dosydoo1234> can anyone prove help on wine application
[23:45] <rumpe1> Citizenwarrior, return to what?
[23:45] <DarkStar1> Citizenwarrior: If your Host OS is windows and you plan on spawning multiple windows OS VMs then...... I'd say good luck
[23:45] <dosydoo1234> is this the right place ?
[23:45] <KM0201> kaddi_: honestly, i'm really not 100% sure
[23:45] <xim_> goltoof, agreed. booo
[23:45] <dosydoo1234> or should i go elswhere ?
[23:45] <induz> rumpe1, school is not going to change
[23:45] <xim_> KM0201, gksudo nvidia-settings...duh
[23:45] <KM0201> but basically its a way of accessing the drive, and running commands like you were using that linux os
[23:45] <kaddi_> KM0201: could you give me some buzzowrds for google? I'm not having much luck finding anything
[23:46] <KM0201> xim_: i know, i'm saying it works fine, to save the config(or does for me anyway
[23:46] <calum> should there be any issues running mupen64 plus emulator in 64 bit ubuntu? My sound is really bad / choppy
[23:46] <DarkStar1> ignarps: aahhh I don't remember much of that ERA because I was mostly AMD
[23:46] <Citizenwarrior> DarkStar1 No I am running Ubuntu 10.04, want to VB a window in it... I don't have any windows boxs
[23:46] <xim_> KM0201, no i was saying why didnt i try that, but i just did and it still say unable to open X config file
[23:46] <goltoof> induz:  do what i did.. drop out.  everything i need to know for work i got online
[23:46] <shcherbak> kaddi_: what do you do? try to use ls to gather info of failed system, also copy logs.
[23:46] <kleopatra> Hello i know that on port 34944 a server runs, how can i stop it?
[23:46] <rumpe1> Citizenwarrior, VB=virtual "boxes"?
[23:46] <KM0201> xim_: dunno, works fine for me...
[23:46] <ignarps> DarkStar1, intel was trying to make the itanium with HP the ia-64.  amd made amd64 and beat them to it with a better design
[23:47] <p_res> induz: What a stupid thing to say. <rolls eyes>
[23:47] <sapsan> rumpe1, you mean search in internet?
[23:47] <DarkStar1> Citizenwarrior: Ifit's just that you hardly need more than the 3GB. unless you plan on running some silly resource hogging games in your windows VM
[23:47] <KM0201> kaddi_: i think i'm actually thinkin gof chroot
[23:47] <DarkStar1> ignarps: Aahh.. I remember that now. :)
[23:47] <p_res> goltoof: What a stupid thing to say. <rolls eyes>
[23:47] <Citizenwarrior> DarkStar1 Ok thanks for your time
[23:47] <dosydoo1234> sorry guys need help in confugriing wine, i have a program and it works but the graphs dont work, anyone know how i can find which dlls i need to override ? or is there a separate wine channel ? thanks
[23:47] <ignarps> DarkStar1, yeah HP still tries to push those chips.   Even though the compiler was proved to be almost impossible to create
[23:48] <p_res> dosydoo1234: join wine irc.
[23:48] <kaddi_> shcherbak: hard drive died, I did a complete image of the drive with dd_rescue. I have reinstalled on a new hard drive from which I'm currently running. I would like to have the new system the way the old one was. I have copied back my user account data and now would like to gather from that image, somehow the list of installed packages as to install the same packages onto the new installation.
[23:48] <rumpe1> sapsan, no... you would have less problems, if they would save their MSoffice-docs in an older format... like Word97 e.g.
[23:48] <DarkStar1> Citizenwarrior: also I think uname -a should provide some info as to whether it's 32/64 bit
[23:48] <DarkStar1> Citizenwarrior: Or is it uname -v
[23:48] <p_res> dosydoo1234: If there is a wine channel!
[23:49] <kaddi_> shcherbak: I used the opportunity to also change partition sizes and reinstall the windows which is why I did not just play back the image, besides there's a lot of holes in it so I'm not sure I would have gotten a working system anyways
[23:49] <ignarps> Citizenwarrior, or check.  cat /proc/cpuinfo
[23:49] <goltoof> p_res:  results vary with that one.. my situation doesn't require me too, though i should. dropping 150k on a degree is way stupid for me at this point
[23:49] <goltoof> anyway.. offtopic
[23:49] <ignarps> Citizenwarrior, it depends if you need to find out if your kernel is 64 bit or your cpu is 64 bit capable
[23:49] <p_res> goltoof: I just thought it was a dumb thing to suggest, that's all.
[23:50] <DarkStar1> ignarps: lol.. :D The architecture itself was wank if I remember correctly so much so it kept failing benchmarks badly when compared with the AMD
[23:50] <goltoof> p_res:  man sarcasm
[23:50] <xim_> goltoof, 150k??? are you on the 10 year plan?
[23:50] <p_res> goltoof: Yes, off topic, moving on...
[23:50] <kaddi_> KM0201, shcherbak I'm assuming chroot is something I would not wnat to run from my current install but rathre from a livecd? Or could I just change the chroot for one instalnce of terminal and run dpkg in there?
[23:50] <ignarps> DarkStar1, yeah that was due to the compiler having to make all multithreaded decisions.   The compilers they had at the time could not do it
[23:50] <DarkStar1> ignarps: but that didn't bother me.. It was the power draw of those chips.. They did run hot on my friends machines
[23:50] <zub> hi. I'd like to rebuild a kernel module so that it matches my running (ubuntu) kernel. What's the correct way to do it? I do apt-get source linux-image-2.6.35-24-generic, then just took config from /boot/config-2.6.35-24-generic, then build the module - but I just get (in dmesg): no symbol version for module_layout when I try to load it
[23:50] <xim_> sorry encouraging ot discussion
[23:51] <Citizenwarrior> ignarps It would be nice to see what the CPU is
[23:51] <zub> I wonder why do I get that when the kernel config is the same (I hope)
[23:51] <KM0201> kaddi_: i don't think it would really matter
[23:51] <ecinx> what's a good program for me to type ' ,hello ' and have it to perform { Hello, $} and put me in the dollar sign?
[23:51] <p_res> induz: My SP3 install just finished. Rebooting now and will then use this vdi as a template to implement for vdi's using vdiclone.
[23:51] <ignarps> Citizenwarrior, then you want the output of 'cat /proc/cpuinfo'
[23:51] <zub> Does apt-get source also apply patches, or am I supposed to apply them myself somehow?
[23:51] <goltoof> ecinx:  php?
[23:51] <induz> p_res, why u use so many XP clones??
[23:51] <Citizenwarrior> ignarps thank-you
[23:51] <calum> I have tried several configurations but mupen64plus sound is still so choppy, what is up?
[23:52] <ecinx> i don't know php
[23:52] <p_res> induz: Different stuff. Development, testing, etc.
[23:52] <induz> p_res, mine is still loading Xp
[23:52] <cerealpirate> I have successfully pulled instanton (which is just a launcher) and have it running on ubuntu and I am having trouble getting icons to appear. All of the links work but there is just blank tiles with the names....I have tried editing the .desktops and have tinkered with the other config files but to avail............... anyone wanna take a stab at it ???
[23:52] <ecinx> kind of like  macro program, I really want it for teX
[23:52] <goltoof> ecinx: just about any programming language can do that, choose a languag
[23:52] <ecinx> LaTeX
[23:52] <DarkStar1> Citizenwarrior: Yeah ignarps is a better solution.. Forgot about that command :D
[23:52] <induz> p_res, r u a s/w tester?
[23:52] <p_res> induz: Dabble in some development and testing, yes.
[23:52] <DarkStar1> lol
[23:53] <induz> p_res, good
[23:53] <ecinx> what i want to do exactly is type ,br and put me betweeen a pair of braces, and type,4 and put me between a pair of dollar signs
[23:53] <Citizenwarrior> DarkStar1 It's cool if none of us ever forgot anything then we wouldn't need to chat here
[23:53] <induz> p_res,  i am trying to get into HelpDeskSupport
[23:53] <xim_> thats what you have to do when you learn everything for you job on the internet
[23:54] <goltoof> ecinx:  not at all an ubuntu issue.. try #bash or #latex   if it exists
[23:54] <DarkStar1> Ok guys I need your opinion on how to solve my problem. and bear in mind I'm not a web head. Newto the whole web admin arena
[23:54] <p_res> induz: Don't get me wrong, apart from gaming I don't really use Windows a lot these days. I use it in VM because as much as I hate Windows, XP runs nicely in VirtualBox. Probably the best operating system for virtualization I reckon.
[23:54] <DarkStar1> Citizenwarrior: We'd still have to chat. We of course come here to learn also
[23:54] <induz> p_res, Its good to know XP runs good on VB
[23:54] <DarkStar1> Anyways here goes with my issue..
[23:55] <p_res> induz: It does!
[23:55] <goltoof> p_res: same,  excluding the new apps that will only work on 7
[23:55] <shcherbak> kaddi_: silly me, you there?
[23:55] <p_res> goltoof: Then I avoid them. Simple.
[23:55] <kaddi_> shcherbak: yes
[23:55] <induz> p_res, we had hrad time on school running server 2003 on VM last year i dont know why that NIC was not working
[23:56] <p_res> induz: Yeah I've never used Windows Server so I wouldn't know.
[23:56] <kaddi_> shcherbak: still reading man chroot and trying on deciding whether it's realy worth it.. :p
[23:56] <shcherbak> kaddi_: you want to have list of programs, right?
[23:56] <kaddi_> shcherbak: yeah, or packages
[23:56] <shcherbak> kaddi_: man is answear!
[23:57] <Desp> ignarps, sorry man I am creating the file
[23:57] <DarkStar1> Two tomcats running on two different virtual servers (both servers are hosted at a provider 1&1 in this case). They run similar webapp services for different dept but are under different domain. I have been tasked with consolidating them under 1 domain name so that both apps will be resolved to a subdomain on the chosen one.
[23:57] <ignarps> Desp, I was not waiting on anything :)
[23:58] <ks07> hey, Im trying to setup a redirect on lighttpd, but I know nothing about regex xD... Can anyone tell me how to match everything on the web server minus an entire directory and its contents ?
[23:58] <Desp> I know , sorry for highlighting your name :)
[23:58] <induz> p_res, is that 384 MB going to affect My ubuntu if i am not using VB[running]
[23:58] <goltoof> induz:  nope
[23:58] <p_res> induz: No, only whilst you have a VM running.
[23:59] <barf_barf> burning an .iso to a dvd -r do i use TAO or SAO write mode?
[23:59] <p_res> Mine's done. Now to clone a couple...
[23:59] <shcherbak> kaddi_: /usr/share/doc/ most of programs write there
[23:59] <DarkStar1> I have fired off an e-mail to 1&1 to ask if they can configure their DNS to resolve this issue for me but not heard anything as of yet. Googling suggests that I maybe able to run Apache on one of the servers and do some reverse proxying so that the request is redirected to the right virtual server.
