[07:56] <TyanColte> nvm problem solved
[07:56] <daiatlus79> histo: it shows up when i use lspci
[07:56] <airtonix> TyanColte, your mount folder is the door to the block device you are trying to mount.... no door no access to device.
[07:56] <histo> TyanColte: fstab doesn't understand sudo but understands the rest of your line
[07:56] <histo> TyanColte: also your mount folder has to be there as a place holder
[07:56] <daiatlus79> histo: and my wlan as well
[07:56] <histo> TyanColte: and your UUID has to be correct. After you get your fstab fixed just sudo mount -a   should mount it
[07:57] <histo> TyanColte: and it will be mounted on boot for you.
[07:57] <histo> daiatlus79: thats just odd.  I'm at a loss for why ifconfig wouldn't see it.
[07:57] <TyanColte> yea but i don't want to have to do sudo mount -a every time i start my fing computer
[07:57] <TyanColte> lol
[07:57] <jatt> is rhythmbox the default music player in lucid?
[07:58] <histo> TyanColte: You won't have to
[07:58] <rww> jatt: yes
[07:58] <histo> TyanColte: it will do it for you.
[07:58] <airtonix> TyanColte, ...
[07:58] <daiatlus79> i read in a google search that there is a bug with that upgrade.. and as well that i cant install network-manager-gnome
[07:58] <histo> TyanColte: thats the hole point of fstab
[07:58] <yaboo> when i start samba get this message standard input is not a socket, assuming -D option any reason why?
[07:58] <TyanColte> the -a means auto doesn't it?
[07:58] <jatt> how can I configure rhythmbox to look like this:
[07:58] <jatt> http://www.ubuntu.com/files/1004features/04.jpg
[07:58] <te_> TyanColte: all
[07:59] <abhifx> hi. plymouth is eating up my resources even after booting up... can someone help me plz
[07:59] <histo> TyanColte: means mount all filesystem mentioned in fstab
[07:59] <jatt> I don't see the ubuntu one music store
[07:59] <daiatlus79> sigh.....
[07:59] <TyanColte> so why would i need to use that command if it is going to automount it in the first place
[07:59] <histo> TyanColte: i'm trying to save you a reboot
[07:59] <daiatlus79> histo: and i have my disc there... but it wont access that one either in synaptic
[08:00] <histo> TyanColte: fstab gets read on boot. that command saves you the reboot
[08:00]  * TyanColte facepalms
[08:00] <TyanColte> never mind
[08:00] <jatt> plymouth is useless if I have an entry in my fstab for my cdrom ubuntu won't boot correctly
[08:00] <TyanColte> i've got it thanks
[08:00] <tomcheng76> Hi, anyone tried auto logoff in Lucid ?
[08:01] <Mrokii> hello all. I wanted to upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04, but when the upgrade starts, if failes to get new packages, saying that it failed to fetch several ppa-links. Can anybody help?
[08:01] <histo> jatt: why do you need an entry for cdrom in fstab?
[08:01] <whyameye> upgraded to 10.04 and my scanner no longer works. I have the firmware in the right directory, the .conf for sane points to the firmware, the product id is matching.  On my PC when I try to bood the 9.10 LiveCD, I get a message "[something] Sleeping forever" during bootup, and now with 10.04 LiveCD It boots to a black screen and never displays a picture. I'm using an i7 with a Radeon HD5850 with a SATA 1Tb drive on a gigabyte motherboard, 4GB ram. Any help please?
[08:02] <histo> whyameye: sudo restart saned ?
[08:02] <jatt> histo: it doesn't matter why do I need it. I removed it afterwards. Fact is, if there is an entry there, plymouth will not allow the system to boot correctly.
[08:02] <jatt> i.e. bug.
[08:02] <histo> jatt: maybe the entry is wrong
[08:03] <whyameye> histo: unknown job: saned
[08:03]  * histo hates this upstart changing stuff
[08:03] <abhifx> no one has a solution for my problem?
[08:03] <jatt> histo: no, the system should boot correctly and plymouth should not complain and hang the whole system, even if the entry is rubbish (the entry is correct, since it mounted the cdrom before the upgrade)
[08:03] <daiatlus79> histo: yeah i had to do that when i got rid of puppy and went over to Xubuntu
[08:03] <histo> whyameye: are you running lucid
[08:03] <whyameye> histo: yes just upgraded
[08:03] <krazykrivda> anyone in here use looking glass?
[08:03] <histo> jatt: you don't need an entry to mount the cd but I don't know could be a bug I guess.
[08:04] <daiatlus79> histo: well thanks for the help...
[08:04] <histo> whyameye: they changed a bunch of stuff with upstart
[08:04] <daiatlus79> you take care man
[08:04] <histo> daiatlus79: np
[08:04] <wildjue> hi
[08:04] <whyameye> histo: yeah I guessed that. :-/ Ticks me off that the scanner worked fine in Hardy
[08:04] <Archaeopteryx> hi, I need to install glib 2.14 for a friend and it appears he is using 2.12. What do I need to do to install 2.14?
[08:05] <yaboo> ok, seems smbclient can see the shares under ubuntu machine
[08:05] <jatt> the fonts in the "ubuntu software center" are way to big. is there a way to fix this. other applications don't have this problem.
[08:07] <Linux> i there any way i can reduce the size of a jpg file in Ubuntu 10.04?
[08:07] <histo> whyameye: is it even running a a damaen right now?
[08:07] <histo> whyameye: daemon?
[08:08] <histo> Linux: crop it or do you mean compress it?
[08:08] <red2kic> Linux: Resize the image?
[08:08] <whyameye> histo: I'm not finding it with ps aux. SO maybe it isn't the problem
[08:08] <Linux> Histo: I do not want to compress. I just want to reduce the size
[08:08] <histo> whyameye: maybe its not running. its not on my system by default
[08:08] <crdlb> Archaeopteryx: what distro? glib 2.12 implies he's using edgy which is extremely unsupported
[08:08] <whyameye> histo: then it probably isn't required to find a scanner.
[08:09] <histo> Linux: what do you mean by size size on disk?  or dimensions?
[08:09] <Linux> histo: both
[08:09] <Sheepherd> hi all... first time i connected my mobile phone via usb a menu popped up where i could chose what to do next (view pictures, listen to music). after reconnecting the device this menu doesnt appear anymore... someone knows why?
[08:09] <romualdo> hallo
[08:10] <histo> Linux: fspot will let you crop
[08:10] <Archaeopteryx> crdlb: I think I might have figured it out. This is 10.04 and I think he just doesn't even have the dev stuff installed. Should get him up to 2.24! I thought he had 2.12 installed but I was wrong
[08:10] <Linux> histo: Thank you very much. I will try to do it using fspot
[08:10] <greezmunkey> Linux: check DjVu
[08:10] <histo> Linux: i don't see a way to change the jpeg compression options with fspot though
[08:11] <histo> Linux: you can use gimp or any of the many photo editors in the software center
[08:11] <Linux> ok, i will try gimp
[08:12] <histo> Linux: gimp is similiar to photoshop
[08:12] <jimtuv> Is it just me or do any other people with Nvidia card have problems with the Nouveau driver??
[08:13] <histo> jimtuv: I did then I installed the nvidia drivers
[08:13] <TyanColte> histo: http://s375.photobucket.com/albums/oo197/TyanColte/?action=view&current=Screenshot-Error.png
[08:13] <TyanColte> that's what happens when i take out the sudo from fstab
[08:13] <jimtuv> I had to completely unistall nouveau to get my Nvidia to work
[08:13] <TyanColte> and try to mount the device
[08:13] <TyanColte> and i did create the folder
[08:14] <histo> TyanColte: yes root is the only one that can moutn like I said
[08:14] <TyanColte> so why did it not mount when i typed mount -a
[08:14] <histo> TyanColte: you could sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/Windows7Drive
[08:14] <histo> TyanColte: and it would get mounted
[08:14] <yaboo> histo think i nailed the samba problem
[08:14] <histo> TyanColte: cuz you would need to sudo mount -a
[08:15] <histo> yaboo: what was it firewall or something in config?
[08:15] <Linux> histo: I just found fotoxx, i hope this will work
[08:15] <airtonix> TyanColte, histo is talking about the commandline now not entries in fstab.
[08:15] <yaboo> histo don't think firewall, because windows can find windows shares
[08:16] <TyanColte> well that's all well and good but why won't it automount when i start my computer
[08:16] <DjAngo23> hey guys, Got a problem booting since the update to 10.04. First i had the problem : An error occurred while mounting /proc/bus/usb, but that is solbved with /etc/fstab, but now, when Ubuntu is doing the disk check (because the system says : file system still has error) i get the following error : The disk drive for /tmp is not ready yet or not present ? But i can cd to /tmp... Any idea ?
[08:16] <histo> TyanColte: try moutning it manually first open a terminal
[08:16] <jimtuv> I did some looking around and a search for nouveau brought me to the  BinaryDriverHowtoNvidiaNouveau page and the first thing on it is Note: Ubuntu 10:04 will use Nouveau out of the box. {X} WARNING: THE DRIVER IS MOSTLY UNSTABLE. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK.
[08:16] <airtonix> TyanColte, where is a pastebin of your /etc/fstab  ?
[08:16] <yaboo> histo this is my error standard input is not a socket, assuming -D option
[08:16] <TyanColte> i did, and it is mounted, but it won't remount when you restart the computer
[08:16] <histo> TyanColte: and type in :     sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/Windows7Drive
[08:17] <jimtuv> why would they put an unstable driver as default?????
[08:17] <histo> TyanColte: okay well maybe the uuid is wrong in fstab then try replacing it with /dev/sda1 instead of UUID=blah
[08:17] <TyanColte> http://pastebin.com/YMu4KN1P
[08:17] <TyanColte> ok
[08:17] <histo> TyanColte: and can you paste bin your final fstab let me see if there are any errors
[08:17] <airtonix> TyanColte, you don't have encryption or something exotic turned enabled for the windows7drive ?
[08:18] <DjAngo23> Any ideas where my problem is comming from ?
[08:18] <airtonix> TyanColte, how did you get that uuid for the windows7drive ?
[08:18] <TyanColte> the same way anybody gets a uuid for a filesystem
[08:18] <histo> TyanColte: yea it doesn't look right
[08:19] <TyanColte> what's the command for that?
[08:19] <histo> TyanColte:
[08:19] <histo> TyanColte: Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
[08:20] <TyanColte> UUID="6866C5F466C5C354
[08:20] <TyanColte> see if it matches with the pastebin
[08:20] <histo> TyanColte: sudo blkid /dev/sda1
[08:21] <TyanColte> same thing
[08:21] <TyanColte> UUID="6866C5F466C5C354"
[08:21] <owen1> after the upgrade to lucid i see the desktop and the mouse. but the login screen doesn't show up so i can't do anything (in karmic i used to text-based login). any tips?
[08:21] <Linux> histo: I just changed the size of pic using fotoxx. It is very easy to do.
[08:21] <airtonix> histo, TyanColte thats because its reading fstab for hte uuid in this case
[08:21] <histo> TyanColte: what are you typing in exactly?
[08:21] <Linux> histo: thx for ur support
[08:21] <histo> Linux: np
[08:21] <bp0> anyone get virtualbox usb devices to work in ubuntu?
[08:21] <histo> ahh
[08:21] <TyanColte> ok, let me try it using /dev/sda1 /media/Windows7Drive ntfs-3g 0 0
[08:21] <histo> bp0: won't work with the ose version
[08:22] <owen1>  /j xubuntu
[08:22] <histo> TyanColte: put that in fstab then stop
[08:22] <Koobuntoo> Hello! If I run the "compiz -replace" command, then my kubuntu panels aren't transparent anymore. Someone knows the solution?
[08:22] <bp0> histo, i have the regular version
[08:22] <TyanColte> stop what?
[08:22] <histo> TyanColte: save it. Then sudo umount /media/Windows7drive.  Then sudo mount -a
[08:22] <histo> TyanColte: see if it mounts it again. if it does then it will on reboot. but you are definately getting a bad UUID from somewhere.
[08:23] <TyanColte> unmount command not found
[08:23] <histo> TyanColte: umount not unmount
[08:23] <TyanColte> ok, it worked that time
[08:23] <TyanColte> not sure why the uuid was the problem but aparently it was
[08:23] <airtonix> TyanColte, uuid is supposed to be 5 groups of hexadecimal digits
[08:24] <abhifx> hi. plymouth is eating up my resources even after booting up... can someone help me plz
[08:24] <TyanColte> ok, one more question
[08:24] <histo> TyanColte: yeap wrong uuid. Now try sudo blkid /dev/sda1
[08:24] <TyanColte> same uuid
[08:24] <TyanColte> /dev/sda1: UUID="6866C5F466C5C354" TYPE="ntfs"
[08:24] <histo> TyanColte: wth I don't know why its given you a bogus uuid then.
[08:24] <yaboo> histo: know why i get this message
[08:24] <TyanColte> beats me
[08:24] <histo> yaboo: what message?
[08:25] <yaboo> standard input is not a socket, assuming -D option
[08:25] <histo> TyanColte: but it will work with /dev/sda1
[08:25] <yaboo> in log.smbd
[08:25] <TyanColte> anyway, how do i change the name in my places folder from 261 GB filesystem to Windows7Drive
[08:25] <histo> yaboo: when are you getting that?
[08:25] <airtonix> histo, try collecting blkid garbage first.
[08:25] <histo> yaboo: I have no idea
[08:25] <yaboo> ok
[08:25] <histo> airtonix: ?
[08:25] <airtonix> blkid -g
[08:25] <twoshots> connect irc.freenode.net
[08:25] <twoshots> sry guys
[08:25] <twoshots> testing stuff
[08:26] <bazhang> twoshots, you are here already
[08:26] <airtonix> histo, i myself cannot get blkid to give me uuid for drives that are not in fstab already
[08:26] <histo> airtonix: hrm...
[08:26] <twoshots> I know :D. Thanks though. I'm just trying to figure out how to connect to any irc I want
[08:26] <twoshots> My client (xchat) seems to only have preset ones
[08:26] <twoshots> I know it's possible though.
[08:26] <Koobuntoo> Hello! If I run the "compiz -replace" command, then my kubuntu panels aren't transparent anymore. Someone knows the solution?
[08:26] <histo> TyanColte: ^^^ did yous ee what airtonix is saying?
[08:26] <bazhang> twoshots, best to do that in the server window
[08:26] <histo> ahh he left
[08:27] <twoshots> bazhang: How do I get to the server window?

[08:28] <histo> bullgard4: you want to keep them at the current version?
[08:29] <bazhang> puma3037, clarify not working
[08:29] <rww> bullgard4: You can't. Ubuntu's upgrade tools pull in ubuntu-desktop deliberately, and you thus end up with ubuntu-desktop's packages, including games.
[08:29] <bullgard4> histo: No. I do not want to keep them. I do want to get rid of them and that they will never install again.
[08:29] <histo> bullgard4: just remove them then
[08:30] <masterkorp> hello
[08:30] <bullgard4> rww: Thank you very much for your help.
[08:30] <histo> bullgard4: you can remove them.

[08:30] <puma3037> any one knows to sol my prob pls reply me
[08:30] <bullgard4> histo: I know. But this was not my question.

[08:31] <ezrafree> anyone know how i can get my netbeans settings back after upgrading to lucid
[08:31] <histo> bullgard4: you said you want to remove them and they won't install again
[08:31] <histo> bullgard4: remove the packages
[08:31] <bullgard4> histo Thank you.
[08:31] <lalla> does the gparted allow us to partition without formatting the disk?
[08:31] <masterkorp> how i can have the boot up from 9.10?
[08:31] <bullgard4> lalla: No.
[08:31] <histo> bullgard4: it may remove ubuntu-desktop which is a meta package. You will just have to keep note of this for future upgrades
[08:31] <puma3037> if i play som video player was automatically gone
[08:31] <bazhang> masterkorp, from 10.04?
[08:32] <histo> !downgrade | masterkorp

[08:32] <histo> lalla: yes gparted will
[08:32] <puma3037> no msgs
[08:32] <masterkorp> not, i only want the boot screen
[08:32] <masterkorp> how can i change that?
[08:32] <histo> lalla: you can create partitions and not format them if you want. Just don't specify a type
[08:33] <masterkorp> can anyone point me in the right way?
[08:33] <puma3037> i was double click som movie then its com & soon gone
[08:33] <sidharth> sid
[08:33] <sidharth> hi
[08:33] <bazhang> puma3037, again, which players
[08:33] <sidharth> how r u?
[08:33] <lalla> histo: I wanna run LFS on my 9.10, it asks me to make a partition...
[08:33] <atrus> masterkorp: maybe you can restate what you mean, because i certainly don't understand.
[08:34] <histo> !usplash | masterkorp
[08:34] <histo> lalla: okay do you ahve any free space?
[08:34] <puma3037> movie player
[08:34] <lalla> histo: yes 30 GB left in 50 GB
[08:34] <bazhang> puma3037, try right click , open with (and choose some different player)
[08:34] <histo> lalla: what are you trying to do biuld a linux from scratch system?

[08:37] <Gintulis> hi, whay when i boot ubuntu, log on desktop , computer freeze about 15s, (not move mouse, kayboard etc.) after about 15s computer work fine, this problem only ubuntu (with other OS no problem)
[08:38] <histo> lalla: open gparted click ont he unallocated space and then click the add up top
[08:38] <histo> lalla: the little plus sign withthe paper
[08:39] <histo> lalla: for filesystem you want to choose unformated if you don't want to format it at this time.
[08:39] <histo> lalla: I believe the LFS documentation walks you through parititoning and stuff you may want to consult their directions. This is way offtopic for here.
[08:40] <histo> lalla: and there is #lfs-support
[08:40] <whyameye> BLEH it was the friggin USB cable fooling my scanner! A different cable and all is happy.
[08:40] <histo> whyameye: always works that way.
[08:41] <lalla> histo: ok thnx
[08:41] <whyameye> histo: since sane-find-scanner was returning reasonable values it never occurred to me
[08:42] <histo> lalla: thats on a different irc server btw
[08:42] <histo> lalla: #lfs-support is on irc.linuxfromscratch.org
[08:44] <macno> hi guys, I bought a Sony Vaio yesterday, tonight I reinstalled it with Lucid, all went fine except audio
[08:44] <DjAngo23> hey guys, Got a problem booting since the update to 10.04. First i had the problem : An error occurred while mounting /proc/bus/usb, but that is solbved with /etc/fstab, but now, when Ubuntu is doing the disk check (because the system says : file system still has error) i get the following error : The disk drive for /tmp is not ready yet or not present ? But i can cd to /tmp... Any idea ?
[08:44] <macno> I can't ear nothing from headphone nor speakers
[08:47] <DjAngo23> macno, try typing alsamixer in your terminal and look if something is mute and increase the volume
[08:48] <Beyecixramd> how do i make an OEM installation in Lucid? with the alternate CD?
[08:49] <histo> Beyecixramd: yes
[08:49] <Beyecixramd> thanks histo
[08:49] <gottto> DjAngo23: afaik the disk check unmounts the drive it checks - or does it's thing before it is mounted - it might pay to run  fsck from a live cd
[08:49] <histo> Beyecixramd: you can select it fromt he options on the main menu i think its f4 to get to options. it lists them at the bottom of the first menu
[08:50] <macno> DjAngo23, done nothing mute except "beep"
[08:50] <Beyecixramd> histo: i know, i know, but AFAIK, the OEM installation was included in the standard ISO, wasn't it?
[08:50] <Beyecixramd> before Lucid, i mean
[08:51] <red2kic> Is there a command that will let me see which progress is holding up a particular file?
[08:51] <DjAngo23> gottto, it is before it is mounted

[08:53] <hasn> hi.can any 1help me how to add wireless icon on top panel,ubuntu 10.04
[08:54] <gottto> DjAngo23: all I can suggest is to try the fsck check from a live cd - it's what I'd do
[08:55] <DjAngo23> gottto, Okay, burning 10.04 and i will do that, thanks for the help, i will let you know what happend.
[08:55] <jamil_1> hi, I am unable to upgrade ubuntu via network. update manager doesn't shows any option to upgrade to 10.04
[08:55] <gottto> DjAngo23: luck mate :]
[08:56] <hasn> hi ,i delete wireless icon on panel by mistake,can any1 help where i can find it again
[08:56] <elky> right click and choose "add to panel"
[08:57] <DjAngo23> gottto, I just tried to burn, but it needed /tmp. I'm happy ubuntu offers the possibility to put tmp somewhere else...
[08:57] <guntbert> red2kic: have a look at fuser (= file user)
[08:57] <hasn> ubuntu 10.04 i tried,i dont know the command for it@ elky
[08:58] <red2kic> guntbert: I found lsof /path/to/file to work. ;O
[08:58] <guntbert> red2kic: :-)
[08:59] <dwntwn> could anyone tell me how to add network manager to my panel?
[08:59] <jamil_1> guntbert: as you suggested earlier I tried to change mirror location but still I am unable to upgrade to 10.04
[09:00] <MXGamer101> hey everyone
[09:00] <Dr_Willis> dwntwn:  i thought you ran the nm-applet
[09:01] <dwntwn> Dr_Willis, where the heck is that?
[09:01] <MXGamer101> anyone can lend some words of advice to a linux newb?
[09:01] <Dr_Willis> nm-applet --sm-disable
[09:01] <Dr_Willis> dwntwn:  run it from a terminal.
[09:01] <Lazy^> MXGamer101: ask but dont ask to ask
[09:01] <Dr_Willis> !manual | MXGamer101
[09:02] <dwntwn> Dr_Willis, I want it as a indicator of signal strength on my panel
[09:02] <MXGamer101> its not that kind of help, more of an installation issue with ubuntustudio
[09:02] <Lazy^> MXGamer101: and the problems is ?
[09:02] <tiger2wander> Hi there
[09:03] <MXGamer101> i was able to install ubuntustudio to the target partition on my hard drive, but when it came to installing the bootloader,it refused to install Grub2 and LILO
[09:03] <guntbert> jamil_1: strange - I'm afraid I've run out of ideas -- obviously it must be some setting on your machine -- but I don't even know where apt keeps all of it's files...
[09:03] <dwntwn> Dr_Willis, how do you know who i am?
[09:03] <Dr_Willis> dwntwn:  Huh?
[09:03] <dwntwn> Dr_Willis, I would like it as a indicator of signal strength on my panel
[09:04] <Lazy^> MXGamer101: what kinf of error Grub2 gives / are you pointing grub2 to right partition
[09:04] <stone1343> What's it called when the system starts failing, you see a "no entry" icon in the notification area and when you press the power button, the shutdown dialog comes up with little rectangles where the letters are supposed to be?
[09:04] <tiger2wander> Could anyone tell me what is the best VPN server to install with Ubuntu server which clients are windows (mostly), ubuntu/linux, mac osx  machine?
[09:04] <Dr_Willis> dwntwn:  when i connect to wireless with the nm-applet here. it changes to  bars showing stregenth here.
[09:05] <dwntwn> Dr_Willis, :~$ nm-applet
[09:05] <dwntwn> An instance of nm-applet is already running.
[09:05] <dwntwn> ** (nm-applet:3310): WARNING **: <WARN>  constructor(): Couldn't initialize the D-Bus manager.
[09:05] <MXGamer101> Lazy^, the text installation gives me the option of either Grub2 or LILO, if i choose Grub2 it gives me no error message and jumps straight back to the option of both bootloaders, and if i choose LILO it gives me a "Failed To Install LILO" on any selcted partition
[09:06] <Dr_Willis> dwntwn:  Perhaps yu have removed  the panel applets where it displays itself. Yopu could reset your panels back to defaults
[09:06] <Dr_Willis> !resetpanels
[09:06] <tiger2wander> I've just tried OpenVPN but no luck to setting it accept username/password from PAM/LDAP service to use with generic windows client without install OpenVPN client
[09:07] <dwntwn> thanks Dr_Willis !
[09:08] <jamil_1> guntbert: can you please post your sources.list file in /etc/apt/
[09:08] <yaboo> make
[09:09] <stone1343> Can anyone help with this? What's it called when the system starts failing, you see a "no entry" icon in the notification area and when you press the power button, the shutdown dialog comes up with little rectangles where the letters are supposed to be?
[09:09] <thechef> How can I tell Ctrl+F to do breadth first search in nautilus?
[09:10] <Jordan_U> MXGamer101: What are you trying to install grub to? (MBR, PBR, MBR with /boot on raid...)
[09:11] <MXGamer101> MBR with /boot on raid
[09:11] <guntbert> jamil_1: http://paste.ubuntu.com/429917/   -- a 9.10 system, where I get the option to upgrade
[09:11] <MXGamer101> presumably that i believe
[09:12] <jamil_1> guntbert: thanx
[09:12] <guntbert> jamil_1: you're welcome :-)
[09:12] <MXGamer101> Hard drives are currently set up as 2x 500gb in Raid0, partition as 900 and 100gb each (100gb holding ubuntustudio), and then a thrd 1tb harddrive that isnt really involved
[09:14] <perplexed> G'day - I need some help regarding the following error:
[09:14] <damagu> Hello all. Can someone help me with a problem I'm having with my external hard drive? It was working fine but now it's become read only and I don't know how to fix it.
[09:14] <Jordan_U> MXGamer101: You can't install grub to a partition if /boot is on raid, it needs to be able to store the core.img in the embedded area between the MBR and first partition. Are you sure you selected the drive (e.g. /dev/sda), and no partitions (e.g. /dev/sda1)?
[09:14] <guntbert> !enter | perplexed
[09:15] <perplexed> thanks ... the error is fd0 cannot get C/H/S values
[09:16] <MXGamer101> i was not explicitly given an option to define where grub was going, the only time i was given the option with anything related to the hard drives was the partitioning for the installation of the operating system itself
[09:16] <Dr_Willis> perplexed:  you do have a floppy drive?
[09:16] <perplexed> it happens when my win xp system tries to boot
[09:16] <perplexed> no - but i do have usb access
[09:16] <Jordan_U> MXGamer101: Also, it needs to be RAID over a standard partition table, not partitions over the RAID.
[09:16] <Dr_Willis> perplexed:  fd0 = floppy disk. check the bios. disable it in bios if you dont have one
[09:17] <perplexed> the floppy drive is disconnected
[09:17] <Dr_Willis> perplexed:  linux boots? but windows has issues?   or whats the exact setup?
[09:17] <perplexed> i'll have to try that now in BIOS thanks
[09:18] <MXGamer101> ahh i see, so there is no way i can get to this OS as it is setup now?
[09:18] <Gadena> :)
[09:18] <Dr_Willis> raid has a lot of things to watch out for.
[09:18] <perplexed> Dr wills - what happened is i tried to make and install from live cd to usb, but somehow it put some of the linux grub file onto the hdd of my pc
[09:18] <damagu> Hey can anyone help me get write privileges for my external hard drive?
[09:19] <Dr_Willis> perplexed:  yep. when doing an install to USB you MUST tell it  on the past dialog of the installer to install grub to the MBR of the usb disk.
[09:19] <nocturnus> damagu: how are we supposed to help you?//
[09:19] <Dr_Willis> perplexed:  plug in the usb, and it boots properly?
[09:20] <Dr_Willis> damagu:  #1 - tell the channel what filesystem is on the usb drive
[09:20] <damagu> nocturnus: I'm using Ubuntu and I had write access and now I don't. I don't know how to get it back and my google searches keep coming with irrelevant results
[09:20] <ouyes> hi all , how to add a printer in ubuntu ?
[09:20] <perplexed> Dr Willis - no the installed usb (not the live usb disk) it just hangs
[09:20] <Jordan_U> MXGamer101: There is no reason I can think of not to use a partition table on the drive itself, do you have a reason? (do you understand what I mean about raid over partitions vs partitions over raid?)
[09:20] <damagu> Dr_Willis: FAT
[09:21] <Dr_Willis> perplexed:  so you want to make a 'bootable full install' to a usb, and have it where with it unplyugged it just boots straight to windows right?
[09:21] <nocturnus> damagu: because you're searcing the wrong things, obviously
[09:21] <damagu> Ubuntu's disk utility wouldn't let me make it any different.
[09:21] <MXGamer101> would you mind explaining it to me anyways, i may have a poor understanding of it
[09:21] <Dr_Willis> damagu:  you may want to install/use the 'ntfs-config' tool it has some check box's that enable full access to fat/ntfs fileystems for users
[09:21] <Procule> Hello, I'm running 9.10 amd64. I have two video inputs: my tv tuner (video0) and my webcam (video1). The problem is that flash player only sees my video0 (tv tuner). It sees it correctly but I do not have the option to change to the webcam.
[09:22] <perplexed> Dr willis - exactly - but now ive messed up my win xp system boot
[09:22] <damagu> nocturnus: you aren't very helpful obviously so maybe you should not say anything
[09:22] <perplexed> Dr willis any ideas how to reverse the damage?
[09:22] <nocturnus> damagu: maybe you should go to hell, because i'm clearly wasting my time offering you help
[09:22] <greezmunkey> ouyes: in your browser: http://localhost:631 will get you to CUPS admin, you can add your printer there.
[09:22] <Jordan_U> ouyes: With most printers you just plug the printer in and in a few seconds you'll see a message like "Printer foo is now ready to be used". If you don't though, there is a good chance that your printer is completely unsupported :(
[09:22] <Dr_Willis> perplexed:  to fix windows. You will have to boot some windows cd and use the proper commands to restore the  bootloader. the commands vary depending on your windows version.  fixmbr/fixboot may be what you need.
[09:22] <damagu> nocturnus: I didn't see you offer any help
[09:23] <damagu> Dr_Willis: Thanks I'll look into that.
[09:23] <nocturnus> you can take that as a retracted offer
[09:23] <Dr_Willis> damagu:  check out the ntfs-3g docs/guides/howtos  for some basic info on how windows filesystems get mounted/accewsed by linux machines also.
[09:23] <Dr_Willis> !windows
[09:23] <damagu> Isn't telling someone to go to hell grounds for being booted? What are you doing here if you aren't going to help people and just abuse them
[09:24] <almost> having trouble gettgin sound for both skype adn music in 10.04
[09:24] <almost> is there  a bug with skype and pulse audio?
[09:24] <Procule> Is it a restriction on Adobe Flash player to only access 1 video input ?
[09:24] <gotsanity> what is the name of the package for the "hardware drivers" utility?
[09:24] <Dr_Willis> almost:  skype has had issues   in the past. but a lot depends on the exact sound cards from what i gather.
[09:24] <siomyn> can't I ask about empathy here ?
[09:24] <damagu> Dr_Willis: Thanks for that. I didn't realise the particular filesystem would be the problem.
[09:24] <siomyn> i mean can*
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> gotsanity:  'jockey-gtk' is thename of the binary i belive gotsanity
[09:25] <ouyes> greezmunkey, Jordan_U we share the printer in our local network
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> !find jockey-gtk
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> !info jockey-gtk
[09:25] <Jordan_U> perplexed: You can write an MS style MBR to the disk from an Ubuntu liveCD by installing the "mbr" package and running "sudo install-mbr /dev/sdX" where X is the proper letter for your drive, likely /dev/sda but you should check to be sure.
[09:25] <almost> i have two cards and a usb headset so there is a \lot of confusion......
[09:25] <almost> lol
[09:25] <gotsanity> Dr_Willis, thanks a bunch
[09:25] <almost> so not sure if it is me ro what..
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> !info mbr
[09:25] <ouyes> greezmunkey, Jordan_U my ip is <IP_ADDRESS> and the printer is <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:26] <debjit> !info encfs
[09:26] <almost> is there a way to set up music on one card and skype on the other?>
[09:26] <greezmunkey> ouyes: What kind of printer?
[09:26] <Dr_Willis> perplexed:  dont get cnfused and use /dev/sda1 when you mean /dev/sda    that can be bad. :)
[09:26] <ouyes> greezmunkey, hp
[09:26] <siomyn> where should I ask about empathy?
[09:26] <perplexed> Dr willis - thanks - i did try that -putting in the orig. win xp home cd to try to recover it - but it has an error saying the inf txtsetup.sif file is corrupt or missing, status 14.  ---very weird
[09:26] <wildbat> do mattrib work on ntsf? i got this error .... while i don't have floppy@@  : http://paste.ubuntu.com/429922/
[09:27] <greezmunkey> ouyes: set up for the ip address:9100 (jet direct) on the networking side, then choose your driver.
[09:27] <siomyn> i can't make some call using SIP in there
[09:27] <Jordan_U> ouyes: Ahh, I never work with network printers personally, have you tried System > Administration > Printing?
[09:27] <Procule> Maybe I could remove the driver for the tv tuner and put the webcam on video0 ?
[09:27] <Dr_Willis> Procule:  try rmmoding the module and restart the flash app.
[09:27] <ouyes> Jordan_U, nothing there
[09:27] <DjAngo23> Can i start the terminal from the live cd (10.04) because i just started directly the option panel "Live CD Session/Install"
[09:27] <Procule> Dr_Willis, i can do that with the /sys
[09:28] <siomyn> Need some help for making call using SIP on empathy
[09:28] <DjAngo23> I just need to perfor a fsck from the terminal..
[09:28] <DjAngo23> And now it' s mounted :S
[09:28] <greezmunkey> ouyes: did you browse to localhost:631 ?
[09:28] <ouyes> greezmunkey, yes
[09:28] <Jordan_U> ouyes: You selected Add, then Network Printer, then find network printer and Windows printer via SAMBA?
[09:28] <greezmunkey> ouyes: select add printer, give it your uname, and pword
[09:29] <greezmunkey> ouyes: use appsocket
[09:29] <ouyes> Jordan_U, yes now
[09:30] <greezmunkey> ouyes: use this form: socket://hostname:9100
[09:30] <perplexed> Dr willis - i'll just try a couple of tweaks in the Bios and then i'll BRB.......
[09:31] <siomyn> #empathy
[09:31] <Jordan_U> MXGamer101: Could you prefix your messages to me with my nick? Otherwise I'll miss them.
[09:32] <Dr_Willis> !tab
[09:32] <greezmunkey> ouyes: socket://{ip address:9100} works well as hostname, if you don't have local dns, you need to make an entry in /etc/hosts to use 'hostname'
[09:33] <siomyn> Dr_Willis: any empathy channel ?
[09:33] <Dr_Willis> siomyn:  i never use the app. so no idea. try #empathy
[09:33] <Dr_Willis> siomyn:  or check its help menu/docs
[09:34] <nocturnus> siomyn: consider compile it yourself
[09:34] <siomyn> nocturnus: Download and compile by my self ?
[09:35] <The_ManU_212> hi
[09:35] <nocturnus> yes, i.e without your 94 year old grandmother holding your hand and giving you an icecream sandwich
[09:35] <siomyn> nocturnus: LOL
[09:36] <greezmunkey> mmm ice cream
[09:36] <The_ManU_212> i use networkmanager to configure my network, networkmanager does connect with auto settings (dhcp) without oing anything, that ok for my notebook but on my desktop workstation i want that no dhcp is done and only my profile for static ip is used, how to do this?
[09:37] <raven> howto MKFS.VFAT full erase (not fast)?
[09:37] <DjAngo23> How to boot the terminal from the live CD ?
[09:37] <^Lem^> hi all, running Ubuntu 10.04 desktop x86-64 here. it's very slow to get to my desktop. compiz starts (expo works), but the desktop doesn't load (nautilus, panels) for about 10 seconds. the desktop starting coincides with a read timeout on the floppy drive /dev/fd0. i don't have a floppy. blacklisting the floppy module didn't fix this
[09:37] <siomyn> There is #empathy but on Gimpnet
[09:38] <ruby_on_tails> does ubuntu run on X11
[09:38] <An_Ony_Moose> yes
[09:39] <wildbat> anyone know if mattrib work on ntfs? i got this error .... : http://paste.ubuntu.com/429922/
[09:39] <guntbert> The_ManU_212: right click on the nm-applet, select edit connections, select a connection (probably the only one), click edit
[09:39] <Dr_Willis> ruby_on_tails:  X11 runs on Linux....
[09:39] <Dr_Willis> !info xorg
[09:39] <guntbert> The_ManU_212: tell me when you are there
[09:39] <nocturnus> ubuntu didn't invent X1111111
[09:39] <nocturnus> whoops
[09:39] <nocturnus> there should only be two ones
[09:40] <wildbat> raven, mkfs ain't erasing tools
[09:40] <Jordan_U> MXGamer101: The practical difference is that to be able to boot from the drive you need to create partitions on the drives *before* doing anything with RAID, selecting the whole disk as RAID then partitioning afterward leaves no space for GRUB to safely install itself.
[09:40] <The_ManU_212> guntbert: I'm there
[09:40] <raven> wildbat, i need to format every space, not only the mft
[09:40] <ouyes> greezmunkey, Jordan_U it is fucking amazing , it is working , but black and white ubuntu page
[09:41] <wildbat> raven, huh ? y so?
[09:41] <greezmunkey> The_ManU_212: here's a screen shot...: http://imagebin.org/96081
[09:41] <e01> i had a problems with my dell mini 9 and lucid
[09:41] <nocturnus> wildbat: please spell correctly
[09:41] <guntbert> The_ManU_212: now select the tab "IPv4 settings", there you choose "method: manual", are you able to fill in the details youself?
[09:41] <MXGamer101>  i see, so in order to get a working install of ubuntustudio i would need to reset my entire setup?
[09:41] <greezmunkey> ouyes: is that with the X.X.X.X:9100 way?
[09:41] <e01> when i close the LID, and open it again, the ubuntu just freezy and had to be restarted
[09:41] <The_ManU_212> guntbert: i allready filled in all neccesary data and i have to switch to this interface every time manually
[09:42] <e01> how can i fix that
[09:42] <guntbert> ouyes: please watch you language in here
[09:42] <The_ManU_212> greezmunkey: thx
[09:42] <ouyes> guntbert, sorry so exciting
[09:42] <ruby_on_tails> An_Ony_Moose: Dr_Willis I have a script where I need to change the dpi of the output pdf, it says on an X11 system this won't work, so what can I do ?
[09:42] <ouyes> greezmunkey, yes
[09:42] <guntbert> The_ManU_212: did you enable "connect automatically" ?
[09:43] <The_ManU_212> guntbert: yes :( doesnt help
[09:43] <greezmunkey> ouyes: color is up to the driver you selected, or the print options you chose when submitting the print job, i.e. in you application.
[09:43] <wildbat> raven, if you need to wipe the disk you can use something like :sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdx9
[09:43] <greezmunkey> The_ManU_212: is the cable connected?
[09:43] <guntbert> The_ManU_212: how many connections do you have in the previous dialog?
[09:44] <The_ManU_212> greezmunkey: yep otherwise i wouldnt write here^^
[09:44] <ouyes> greezmunkey, my printer is physically white and black
[09:44] <greezmunkey> ouyes: well, there you go!
[09:44] <The_ManU_212> guntbert: one, my manually configured one, the auto connection does appear from nowhere
[09:44] <ManDay> Can I change the delay by which the Desktop Background changes in a slideshow?
[09:45] <Dr_Willis> ruby_on_tails:  No idea what you are doing exctly. sounds to me liek its saying on  a unix/linux system it wont work..
[09:45] <Aciid> whats the name of "Sound Preferences" application?
[09:45] <guntbert> The_ManU_212: I suggest you just edit the auto connection with your desired settings
[09:45] <bumbblebee> i am going for fresh install of lucid, shld i back up anything other than my home folder?
[09:46] <The_ManU_212> guntbert: bwhere to do this?
[09:46] <ruby_on_tails> Dr_Willis: can you go here and ctrl+F "dpi" ?
[09:46] <greezmunkey> ouyes: the cups server webpage X.X.X.X:631 is pretty cool. You could have done the same thing in System>Administration>Printing, but the CUPS server gives much more options.
[09:46] <guntbert> The_ManU_212: ah sorry - I misread - because "everyone has an auto connection" :-)
[09:47] <The_ManU_212> guntbert: ah ok me not
[09:47] <guntbert> The_ManU_212: is it called "default" ?
[09:47] <ManDay> Can I change the delay by which the Desktop Background changes in a slideshow?
[09:47] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: There are other tools to generate pdfs from html, the simplest being printing to a PDF from the browser.
[09:49] <Dr_Willis> ManDay:  for gnome 0- theres a xml file that handles the delays/times  find/edit/make your own
[09:49] <guntbert> The_ManU_212: you can also try to enable "available for all users"
[09:49] <ouyes> greezmunkey, i just need it work
[09:49] <gotsanity> I have network-manager-gnome installed but I am not showing a network manager applet in the indicator applet tray. Anyone have any idea how i can get it to show?
[09:49] <ManDay> Dr_Willis, where is that XML file?
[09:50] <ManDay> oh in the dir with the images i take it
[09:50] <Dr_Willis> ManDay:  in a subdir..
[09:50] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: its being done server side, is there any other tool to do this server side ?
[09:50] <Dr_Willis> You can make your own. seen guides on it at omgubuntu and/or webupd8
[09:50] <greezmunkey> ouyes: well, I'm glad I made your life easier.
[09:50] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: In fact, wkhtmltopdf itself is available in the repositories.
[09:51] <ManDay> Other question: I use audacious with pulse and play mp3 files but sometimes in some files the volume drops and i have a certain noise for a few seconds. this is not replicable by rewinding to the position where it occured - what could be the problem here?
[09:51] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: yes I installed it
[09:51] <ManDay> thanks Dr_Willis
[09:51] <The_ManU_212> guntbert: no i have only the setting home which i created manually
[09:51] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: but its an application that's gonna be hosted.
[09:51] <ouyes> greezmunkey, what is the difference between short edge and long edge
[09:52] <guntbert> The_ManU_212: you can also try to enable "available for all users"
[09:52] <The_ManU_212> guntbert: i dnt have this option but i have system connection which is greyed out
[09:52] <greezmunkey> ouyes: one edge is longer than the other??
[09:53] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: Ahh, you're running into the mentioned "reduced functionality"
[09:53] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: didn't get you what's reduced functionality ?
[09:53] <guntbert> The_ManU_212: oops - we are talking about different ubuntu versions I guess - what is yours?
[09:53] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: python-pisa looks like it may do what you want.
[09:55] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: wkhtmltopdf needs a patched version of the QT toolkit to be able to work without X11 running, QT in the repositories does not contain these patches so the wkhtmltopdf in the repos can only be run if you have an X server running (GUI)
[09:56] <The_ManU_212> guntbert: jaunty
[09:56] <nocturnus> Jordan_U: ...what?
[09:57] <ouyes> greezmunkey, how to set it print on both sides of the paper?
[09:57] <greezmunkey> ouyes: couldn't tell you, I donno
[09:58] <Jordan_U> nocturnus: I don't understand your question.
[09:58] <timmillwood> Anyone got an eee pc 701, wondering which ubuntu to put on it.
[09:58] <MXGamer101> i have a 900HA
[09:58] <wookienz> hi, im trying to mount a cifs share through fstab. I wont to mount it 777. It only mounts 770. Do i need to mask it? Help?
[09:58] <guntbert> The_ManU_212: I don't have that any more -- but isn't there a button like "unlock" or the like (it would then ask you for your password to accomplish system tasks)
[09:59] <panagiotis> xxx
[09:59] <yaboo> ok seems i cannot to my samba shares on the server but not from others machines, anyone know why
[09:59] <atlantica> quick bluetooth question: i'm not going to have difficulty with my mouse/keyboard am I?
[10:00] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: do you know of any tool that could directly give me png/jpg ?
[10:00] <red2kic> atlantica: Using BT Mouse.  It works fine for me.
[10:00] <atlantica> excellent. the installer didn't recognize it straight off, so i wanted to double-check. thanks @red2kic
[10:01] <The_ManU_212> guntbert: no :/
[10:01] <The_ManU_212> guntbert: is tehre perhaps a support channel for networkmanager?
[10:01] <romeus> hello
[10:01] <Oprtz> hi all
[10:02] <timmillwood> MXGamer101: Was it easy to get ubuntu onto?
[10:03] <Oprtz> is there any website in which i can see all the applications for synaptic ubuntu 10.04? and the best applications? i want to search abt horoscop application
[10:03] <dominicdinada> ya on the repo pages
[10:03] <Durf> So whats rm -rf / do?
[10:03] <dominicdinada> Oprtz:
[10:03] <overmind> Oprtz: Why don't you try "software-center"?
[10:03] <nocturnus> Jordan_U: why not?
[10:03] <atlantica> Durf: ._.
[10:03] <MXGamer101> timmillwood: sure was, a little easier and faster too seeing as eee users are forced to have to install off of flash media
[10:03] <romeus> I just performed a fresh install Lucid on my laptop... now it's only booting into the console. If I try to startx, I get low resolution message and a menu of options, I've tried them all and they don't do anything. How can I fix this?
[10:03] <overmind> Durf: It removes all hdd/partition
[10:03] <Oprtz> overmind:  i dont know abt the software centre
[10:03] <dominicdinada> Durf: force the directory to be removed
[10:04] <dominicdinada> oh with the / at root
[10:04] <dominicdinada> haha
[10:04] <red2kic> Durf: It destroys the continent: Australia
[10:04] <arand> Durf: Delete the whole contents of the system
[10:04] <ouyes> i can printer anything under ubuntu now
[10:04] <Oprtz> overmind:  ahh i c, there is software centre
[10:04] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: where did you find that wkhtmltopdf needs Qt and is X dependent ?
[10:04] <nocturnus> ruby_on_tails: check out the documentation
[10:05] <guntbert> The_ManU_212: not that I know of -- as a work around you could left click on the nm-applet, and select "your" connection there -- please ask in the channel again and mention that you are on jaunty
[10:05] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: wkhtml2pdf --help
[10:05] <overmind> Oprtz: Then you can see applications rankings or godknowswhat things
[10:05] <Oprtz> is there any free horoscope application available for ubuntu 10.04? thanks
[10:05] <dominicdinada> Who wanted all the Packages listed ?
[10:05] <Oprtz> overmind:  i search there, but no luck :(
[10:05] <heroid> guys i have a problem X is not starting in boot time so i have to start it manually
[10:05] <dominicdinada> Oprtz: http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/net/
[10:06] <red2kic> Oprtz: There aren't any. :(
[10:06] <red2kic> !away > Hyp3r-Zzz
[10:06] <dominicdinada> Oprtz: those are all the packages listed by category
[10:06] <Oprtz> red2kic:  okie dude
[10:06] <Oprtz> dominicdinada:  thanks dude
[10:06] <Oprtz> thanks all
[10:06] <dominicdinada> welcome
[10:07] <heroid> guys i have a problem X is not starting in boot time so i have to start it manually
[10:07] <red2kic> Oprtz: You probably can make a script that'll receive from a website and display right away.
[10:07] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: The staticly linked binary from their web site should work without X11 though.
[10:07] <overmind> !repeat | heroid
[10:07] <Oprtz> red2kic:  i am not good in linux :(
[10:07] <nocturnus> heroid: try fixing it
[10:07] <Oprtz> i dont know how to make / write script
[10:07] <red2kic> heroid: Is gdm installed?
[10:07] <dominicdinada> Oprtz:  Actually the link I gave you was for the Net subcategory he is the main packeage page for lucid
[10:07] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: I am working with the static binary only
[10:07] <dominicdinada> http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/
[10:08] <Oprtz> dominicdinada:  thanks
[10:08] <dominicdinada> No worries :)
[10:08] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: Could you pastebin the error you're getting?
[10:09] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: I am not getting any error
[10:09] <red2kic> Oprtz: I searched "horoscope" and nothing turned up. You'll have to make do with a script or bookmark a horoscope website.
[10:09] <Mrokii> Hello. I have started th upgrade vom 9.10 to 10.04 and it started well, unpacking and replacing things. But it seems to have stopped now, in the middle of the proccess of "unpacking replacement memtest86+".
[10:10] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: if I specify a dpi the result is "Done" but the image is the same as before
[10:10] <Mrokii> I has been sitting there for several minutes now, which doesn't look right to me.
[10:10] <Seveas> Mrokii, run this command and pastebin the output: ps aux; df -h
[10:10] <Seveas> it indeed does no look right
[10:10] <dominicdinada> Blah firewall is set to drop packets from my router :(
[10:10] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: this is my command: ./html2pdf http://www.google.com google.pdf -d 300
[10:11] <asadeddin> hey
[10:11] <ruby_on_tails> I renamed the thing to html2pdf
[10:11] <overmind> dominicdinada: If you have router firewall is not needed (but yes recommedable keep it enabled), anyways use "sudo ufw set default allow"
[10:11] <asadeddin> I need some help with Realtek wireless drivers, anyone/
[10:11] <asadeddin> ?
[10:11] <Mrokii> Seveas:  This is the output: http://pastebin.org/210018
[10:11] <noxi> All: I am in need of some serious help with dual booting ubuntu 10.04 and Windows 7, both operating systems are installed but I am lacking a grub boot loader screen. Before that and other tries, i was missing Windows 7 on the grub bootloader.
[10:12] <Seveas> !anyone | asadeddin
[10:12] <dominicdinada> overmind: That will allow me to ssh to the Server as well ?
[10:12] <dominicdinada> !grub2 | noxi
[10:12] <The_ManU_212> guntbert: this workaround do i use everytime
[10:12] <overmind> dominicdinada: Yes
[10:12] <Seveas> Mrokii, you didn' type it in correctly, try again: ps aux; df -h
[10:12] <asadeddin> Does anyone know how to install a Realtek 8191se driver on 10.04? Tried and didn't work for me...
[10:13] <dominicdinada> overmind: ok ill give that a shot, can never have to much protection
[10:13] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: the pdf is of the same size if I specify -d 300 or -d 500 or nothing
[10:13] <overmind> dominicdinada: If you are under router "atacks" will go to router, no to specific PC
[10:13] <raviepic3> help | am using ubuntu 9.04 and i just now upgraded my firefox but still it aint 3.6 its just 3.0
[10:13] <ElTonerino> Since upgrading to 10.4, when banshee synchronises music to my phone, and files that it transcodes to mp3 don't work on my phone.  But they do work through things like totem.  Any ideas?
[10:14] <Mrokii> Seveas:  I copy and pasted it into the console. This is what I copied "ps aux; df -h". Looks like what you suggested.
[10:14] <raviepic3> how can i upgrade my firefox to 3.6 so that i can use the firebug addon with it
[10:14] <raviepic3> ?
[10:14] <raviepic3> ?
[10:14] <FloodBot2> raviepic3: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:14] <dominicdinada> blah wrong syntax... sudo ufw allow default ?
[10:14] <overmind> dominicdinada: Sec
[10:15] <atlantica> lucid is very fast. sorry that's not a question. i'm just very impressed.
[10:15]  * dominicdinada is on lucid
[10:15] <asadeddin> Could anyone help me reach solution to installing my 8191se driver please?
[10:15] <bullgard4> atlantica: Enjoy Ubuntu!
[10:15] <dominicdinada> atlantica:  could be but for slower pc
[10:15] <dominicdinada> atlantica: pc
[10:15] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: options need to come before the input and output file parameters
[10:15] <overmind> dominicdinada: "sudo ufw default allow"
[10:16] <dominicdinada> BLah for slower pcs it is actually slower cause of all the pretty crap
[10:16] <dominicdinada> ok
[10:16] <overmind> dominicdinada: I am too
[10:16] <adapor> hi everybody
[10:16] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: ./html2pdf -d 300 http://www.google.com google.pdf
[10:16] <najat> hello all
[10:16] <atlantica> what's the best package for nvidia cards now?
[10:16] <Seveas> atlantica, depends on the age of the card
[10:16] <adapor> can someone help me to make a Sveon STV22 tv tuner work under ubuntu?
[10:17] <Iowahc> hy there, I am forwarding a local ssh port to a third machine. is there a way to set the -X (Xforwarding) for that machine?
[10:17] <MXGamer101> hey Jordan_U i think i made a mistake. I moved the installation of ubuntu studio to my other hard drive that is not linkedto the RAID but now the system boots directly to UbuntuStudio
[10:17] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: is this a normal rule or is this written in the documentation and I missed it ?
[10:17] <raviepic3> what the, since a month nobody answers me for what ever i ask
[10:17] <noxi> Thank you for sending me to a page all about grub2, at 4 am I am still not quite getting the problem here. I have been reading online for hours and still nothing has worked. I have never managed a dual boot before but the concept seems simple enough. I still would like maybe a little attention other then a page. Thanks for the read though.
[10:17] <aburrabeet> How to upgrade Ubuntu using command line interface?
[10:17] <raviepic3> and i found that am not asking dumb questions for a starter
[10:17] <MXGamer101> also the command sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst = blank file
[10:17] <atlantica> seveas: not ancient. i've got an 8800gt right now
[10:17] <dominicdinada> overmind: thanks at least i can turn the firewall on without it killing my wifi connection... :)
[10:17] <greezmunkey> Iowahc: there's an interesting experiment...
[10:17] <Iowahc> raviepic3:  whats the question?
[10:17] <overmind> dominicdinada: :)
[10:17] <Iowahc> greezmunkey: what do you mean?
[10:18] <raviepic3> Iowahc, thanks for replying, i wanted to install firebug in my firefox it says firefox version not up to date
[10:18] <Seveas> atlantica, system -> admin -> hardeware drivers. That tool will find the correct package for you
[10:18] <jibadeeha> anyone here managed to get Amazon MP3 downloader to work with Lucid?
[10:18] <Iowahc> raviepic3:  what version are you using?
[10:18] <raviepic3> so how can i upgrade my firefox up to date ?
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> raviepic3:  i would guess the extension may be to blame.
[10:18] <greezmunkey> Iowahc: exactly what I said, so you got X forwarding to run to one machine?
[10:18] <raviepic3> 3.0.19
[10:18] <dominicdinada> overmind:  you wouldnt happen to know anything about Wireless access points via server :)
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> raviepic3:  it may be seeing a very new version #. as being 'wrong'
[10:18] <adapor> will hardware drivers find tv tuner drivers??
[10:18] <atlantica> Seveas: thanks!
[10:18] <Iowahc> raviepic3:  I would guess too, that the plugin is the problem
[10:19] <najat> hallo everybody
[10:19] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: It's specified if you read the Synopsys literally "wkhtmltopdf [OPTIONS]... <input file> [More input files] <output file>", but it's understandable that you wouldn't read it literally since it's a strange limitation for a command to have.
[10:19] <raviepic3> Iowahc, ! ! ! okie, how can i upgrade my firefox to 3.16.x ?
[10:19] <Russ> http://www.NewSexyEmilie.com?605387
[10:19] <raviepic3> Dr_Willis, thanks fro replying
[10:19] <Seveas> raviepic3, there is no 3.16
[10:19] <Iowahc> greezmunkey:  I am forwarding X from the machine I am connecting to, but not to the one I forward the port to
[10:19] <dominicdinada> !spam | russ
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> raviepic3:  i  just installed firebug here -> http://getfirebug.com/
[10:19] <Seveas> !ops | Russ spamming
[10:20] <overmind> dominicdinada: WiFi access points no, but long time ago I did internet connection via bluetooth access point
[10:20] <najat> i have a problem with my VGA ,,,
[10:20] <atlantica> Oh dear.. it froze when it was searching for drivers. Restart and try again! :)
[10:20] <Appl6> aburrabeet: You can use "sudo aptitude full-upgrade" to upgrade your packages from the command line.
[10:20] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: oh yes, thanks :)
[10:20] <dominicdinada> overmind:  :( nah I read the how twos and well I guess I will take baby steps with it little by little
[10:20] <Iowahc> raviepic3:  what version of ubuntu are you at?
[10:20] <raviepic3> Seveas, sorry 3.6.x i mean
[10:20] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: You're welcome.
[10:20] <raviepic3> Iowahc, 9.04
[10:20] <Seveas> raviepic3, upgrade to lucid, it has 3.6
[10:20] <Dr_Willis> raviepic3:  installed firebug 1.5.4 on my firefox 3.6.3
[10:20] <greezmunkey> Iowahc: I've played with that, it should be do-able. I'm checking some docs I dl'd ...
[10:20] <Take0n> What is the font that the new ubuntu logo in lucid uses and where can I find it?
[10:21] <Iowahc> greezmunkey:  nevermind. have forgot to use the right option -.-
[10:21] <Dr_Willis> Take0n:  its called 'ubuntu'
[10:21] <Seveas> Take0n, that font is neither complete nor released :(
[10:21] <wildbat> how do i disable nautilus auto pop up on USB drive plugin ?
[10:21] <atlantica> Take0n The font is called Wordmark and it's not available for use. Unfortunately.
[10:21] <atlantica> Oh, I read it was called Wordmark
[10:21] <raviepic3> Dr_Willis, i getthis Firebug 1.5.4 could not be installed because it is not compatible with Firefox 3.0.19.
[10:21] <Iowahc> raviepic3: then a apt-get upgrade should bring you up with a newer version of firefox i guess, or as Seveas  mentioned, update to lucid
[10:21] <greezmunkey> Iowahc: yeah, it shold work on a connection to connection basis - allowing multiple sessions.
[10:21] <raviepic3> Seveas, how do i upgrade to lucid ?
[10:22] <Take0n> thank you guys =)
[10:22] <atlantica> it's a very nice font, though.
[10:22] <Seveas> !upgrade | raviepic3
[10:22] <Take0n> it really is!
[10:22] <Mrokii> Or does anybody know if I can just force quit the installer and restart it? Would it go on doing the upgrade?
[10:22] <Iowahc> greezmunkey: yes, works fine :)
[10:22] <Dr_Willis> raviepic3:  then upgrade youre firefox.
[10:23] <Seveas> Mrokii, that would break it horribly
[10:23] <dominicdinada>  Russ is spamming in Ubuntu-Server now :/
[10:23] <greezmunkey> Iowahc: nice :)
[10:23] <Seveas> dominicdinada, tell that in #ubuntu-ops
[10:23] <Mrokii> Seveas:  Well, so what should I do?
[10:23] <aburrabeet> Appl6: I need to upgrade karmic to lucid.
[10:23] <Seveas> Mrokii, well, you could start with giving me the information I asked...
[10:23] <ouyes> what kind of font do you prefer to print english letters/
[10:23] <dominicdinada> i did
[10:23] <Take0n> and may I ask if someone here knows of any PPA that has GIMP 2.7? I want to use gimp as one window and no 100 different
[10:24] <Iowahc> is there a nice CLI tool for wake on LAN?
[10:24] <dominicdinada> but they afk hes trying to say its an accident...
[10:24] <raviepic3> Dr_Willis, Iowahc http://pastebin.com/6HjEBND5
[10:24] <Mrokii> Seveas:  The command you gave me didn't work. It did when I used "ps ax; df -h". Would that be of any help?
[10:24] <Appl6> wildbat: Open nautilus, go to Edit -> Preferences -> Media (it's a tab) and you can find various options there.  You probably want to uncheck "Browse media when inserted."
[10:24] <Dr_Willis> !locate libXxf86dga.so
[10:24] <Dr_Willis> !find  libXxf86dga.so
[10:24] <Iowahc> raviepic3: Do you did a apt-get update first?
[10:24] <Seveas> Mrokii, the command I gave works. You typed it in wrong or are not on an ubuntu system ;-)
[10:25] <Mrokii> Seveas:  I did a copy/paste, so there is no way I could have mistyped anything.
[10:25] <greezmunkey> Iowahc: ethtool?
[10:25] <wildbat> Appl6, ^^ thanks ^^
[10:25] <Appl6> wildbat: You're welcome.
[10:26] <greezmunkey> Iowahc: I don't know if you would call it "nice" :)
[10:26] <Appl6> aburrabeet: Try "sudo do-release-upgrade".
[10:27] <Iowahc> greezmunkey: well, as it seems to me its more for configuring, not for sending wakeonlan packets?
[10:27] <red2kic> greezmunkey: pleasant or pleasing or agreeable in nature or appearance; "what a nice fellow you are and we all thought you so nasty"- George Meredith -- Somehow, CLI and pleasant should not be in same sentence. :o
[10:27] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: still doesn't do any good, -d 300/500 doesn't work, I also tried to use --enable-plugins to capture flash stuff but that doesn't work either
[10:27] <Mrokii> Seveas:  As you can see here, the first line contains the last part of my command-prompt, plus the command you gave me: http://pastebin.org/210046
[10:27] <greezmunkey> red2kic: nice!@
[10:28] <jbendotnet> hi
[10:28] <raviepic3> Iowahc, yes
[10:29] <greezmunkey> Iowahc: there may be an issue in the kernel, pleanty of bug reports...
[10:29] <raviepic3> only after that it upgraded my firefox to this version i guess
[10:29] <WormDrink> hi
[10:29] <jbendotnet> getting 'Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)' when i try to install mysql-server
[10:29] <jbendotnet> how do I clean it up
[10:29] <WormDrink> how good an idea is x64  ?
[10:29] <red2kic> WormDrink: How good an idea is V8 engine?
[10:29] <Appl6> Mrokii: You might want to be careful with copy/paste.  Sometimes chat programs are not in ASCII, and that could cause a problem with the command.  Try typing it in by hand.
[10:29] <Giles> Is lucid supposed to have a boot splash screen?
[10:30] <greezmunkey> Iowahc: check this out: http://www.linuxreaders.com/2010/03/08/save-power-using-wake-on-lan/
[10:30] <Iowahc> raviepic3:  then you should try to do a dist-upgrade as Seveas  mentioned it
[10:30] <WormDrink> red2kic, i mean more in sense of for end user OS - will I notice compatibility problems
[10:30] <WormDrink> i.e. say for binary releases
[10:30] <Jordan_U> Giles: Yes.
[10:30] <WormDrink> or should they work fine (I)
[10:31] <Giles> Jordan_U: I dont have one.
[10:31] <WormDrink> if I can remember correctly ubuntu has both x64 and x82 libs installed
[10:31] <red2kic> WormDrink: There always are sticky situations.  Ie Hulu whines about native 64-bit adobe-plugins. I use amd64 on all my machines.
[10:31] <daurnimator> anyone care to help with no sound?
[10:32] <Appl6> WormDrink: I use x64, and I don't have many problems.  But if you can't come up with a reason for x64, you're almost certain to have fewer problems with x86 (especially with flash!).
[10:32] <Mrokii> Appl6:  I have tried that, but it is all the same. Even when I use "ps aux" only, I get the message of conflicting format options
[10:32] <red2kic> WormDrink: It is possible that some 32-bit binaries does not exist for amd64. Overall, if you're going to use Ubuntu for everyday usage, then you're probably fine with either.
[10:32] <cci[RR]us> hi i cant boot using lucid cd
[10:32] <WormDrink> I see
[10:32] <cci[RR]us> please help...
[10:33] <Mrokii> Seveas:  Whould this be of any help? http://pastebin.org/210058 (It's what I get when I use "ps ax")
[10:33] <bushbaby> cci[RR]us: What happens when you try to boot it?
[10:33] <cci[RR]us> hangs at "Setting sensors limit     [ OK ]"
[10:33] <Twiztid> could someone please give me some pointer on getting ubuntu running at its fastest, ie: fresh install, then what programs are recommended, and whats the best environment, fluxbox, xfce, ... im looking for pure speed
[10:33] <cci[RR]us> i tried noacpi, etc...
[10:34] <red2kic> Twiztid: You want Arch / Gentoo. They're known for OPTIMIZATION.
[10:34] <musashi> Twiztid, use console
[10:34] <Giles> I seem to have a splash screen on shutdown but not on startup.
[10:34] <bushbaby> cci[RR]us: have you scanned the cd for errors?
[10:34] <Mrokii> Seveas:  I have seen there is a line containing "memtest86+" at the end of this output. Though I don't know what that means.
[10:34] <cci[RR]us> pls refer here:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1476730
[10:35] <cci[RR]us> i'll try to scan the disc now... but i doubt it's the disc fault
[10:35] <overmind> Twiztid: Ubuntu is not designed for be quick, but for be easy. You may want Debian or another distro what doesn't use x
[10:36] <bushbaby> cci[RR]us: If it's not at least you've removed a possible source of the problem
[10:36] <cci[RR]us> i'll try on another pc... brb
[10:36] <Twiztid> overmind: k, then i guess my question is, what steps should i take to get ubuntu slimmed up and on speed?
[10:36] <bushbaby> cci[RR]us: ok.
[10:36] <heroid> red2kic: yes gdm is installed
[10:36] <Appl6> Mrokii: Can you pastebin the output of "echo $SHELL ; which ps ; file `which ps` ; alias", please?
[10:37] <musashi> Twiztid, remove processes that you dont need. get rid of gnome and use fluxbox, lxde or xfce.
[10:39] <Jordan_U> Twiztid: Unless you have a particularly low spec computer speed is going to depend more on what application you are using to perform a given task than things like gnome vs fluxbox etc. For instance, for word processing Abiword on a standard Ubuntu install will blow away Open Office on even the most bare / optimized configurations.
[10:39] <Twiztid> musashi: fluxbox, lxde, xfce  all equally fast? or u have a favorite?
[10:39] <Mrokii> Appl6:  http://pastebin.org/210065
[10:39] <musashi> Twiztid, i prefer lxde
[10:39] <Appl6> Twiztid: If you could "turn up the speed" without any other issues, then distribution maintainers would have done that already.    That is why you were having issues with "ps aux".  To get around that, use "/bin/ps aux".
[10:41] <Twiztid> Jordan_U: thank you, i have 1.25gbs ram   2ghz cpu,  atix1300 515mb agp video card...   i like compiz and cairo dock and am trying to get a good mix of speed and stability no matter how pretty at this point
[10:41] <Mrokii> Appl6:  Sorry, that has been installed by a friend
[10:41] <JackStoner> hey i have a problem when i unlock my screen after i enter my password it locks again
[10:41] <Diverdude> I have basically 2 harddisks in my laptop. One is partioned into several parts, and one is just one big chunk(called TrayData) They are currently partioned like this : http://imagebin.org/96089  I want to merge sda7,sda3 and sda5 into one big chunk. Currently i am running this ubuntu on the sda7, and sda3 and 5 is not used. Is it possible to merge sda3 and 5 into sda7 which is currently running ubuntu without damaging anything?
[10:42] <Appl6> Mrokii: It's no problem at all.  But it can mess up commands that people tell you to use, so if someone gives you a command that breaks, you should show them the result of the "alias" command.
[10:42] <jbendotnet> anyone run into issues installing mysql-server on 9.10 ?
[10:42] <Twiztid> Appl6: ya i understand...  im jus so done with XP and want a faster desktop experience without having to upgrade it for now...
[10:42] <JackStoner> hey i have a problem when i unlock my screen after i enter my password it locks again
[10:42] <Mrokii> Appl6, Seveas: http://pastebin.org/210071 (the output from the first command)
[10:42] <Error403> JackStoner after how long?
[10:42] <cci[RR]us> the disc worked fine in my other pc.  i doubt it's disc defect coz that would throw I/O errors. i've seen it before in such cases
[10:43] <cci[RR]us> i'd like to know how to disable limit sensors
[10:43] <JackStoner> Error403: just as soon as i press enter, then i have to unlock again
[10:43] <Diverdude> anyone?
[10:43] <Error403> JackStoner so your in a loop?
[10:43] <Radim_> !cd
[10:43] <JackStoner> Error403: kinda, with 2 occurances
[10:43] <Radim_> !iso
[10:43] <Error403> JackStoner then it stops?
[10:43] <Jordan_U> JackStoner: Do you ever actually see the desktop?
[10:44] <Radim_> !burn iso
[10:44] <bushbaby> cci[RR]us: It doesn't look like it's hanging on setting the limits for the sensors though. it seems to be hanging after that as the OK flag has appeared. I dont' know what the next boot stage is however..
[10:44] <cci[RR]us> reference:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1476730
[10:44] <JackStoner> Jordan_U: yes for a second before it locks again
[10:44] <cci[RR]us> ok bushbaby thanks.
[10:44] <Radim_> !burning
[10:44] <cci[RR]us> i'm downloading the text installer iso
[10:44] <JackStoner> Error403: when i lock it, i have to enter my password TWICE
[10:44] <bushbaby> cci[RR]us: No problem. Good luck
[10:44] <Appl6> Diverdude: The amount of work required to MAYBE get that to work is not at all worth it.  You should just move your data off sda3 and sda5, expand sda7, and then move it back.
[10:45] <Dr_Willis> Hmm. I dont suppose anyone has gotten the Alien Arena 2010 version working yet?
[10:45] <Radim_> how big is ubuntui install CD? Will be 74 minutes disk enough?
[10:45] <Appl6> Diverdude: By "not at all worth it" I mean that it would be a lot of work, and all that filesystem work means there's a fair chance that you will lose some of that data.  If you can back it up, then just wipe those partitions and copy it back.
[10:45] <Dr_Willis> Radim_:  how many mb does that cd say?  I was thinking I  use 80min cd's  -
[10:46] <Diverdude> Appl6, okay, and how do i wipe the partiotions?
[10:46] <Radim_> Dr_Willis: 650mb/74 min
[10:46] <Dr_Willis> Radim_:  mine all say 700mn 80mb
[10:46] <Jordan_U> Diverdude: Gparted from a LiveCD
[10:46] <Appl6> Diverdude: Do you have your data backed up?  You have to back it up first.
[10:46] <Dr_Willis> Radim_:  so it might not work
[10:46] <jibadeeha> when installing a new version of Ubuntu (e.g. 10.04) is there a way to list my installed software from 9.10 and feed it into 10.04 so i don't have do this manually
[10:46] <valentinex> 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. The connection was refused. Maybe smbd is not running.
[10:46] <Dr_Willis> oops 80min 700mb
[10:46] <Diverdude> Appl6, yes i can copy it to my TrayData harddisk
[10:47] <Diverdude> Appl6, that should be okay
[10:47] <Jordan_U> Radim_: No, that's not enough for the standard Ubuntu iso, there are other options though.
[10:47] <Appl6> Diverdude: OK, cool.  Then what Jordan_U said, use a program called gparted from a liveCD (Ubuntu's liveCD has gparted on it).
[10:47] <Jordan_U> jibadeeha: Easiest thing to do is just upgrade.
[10:47] <acocman> hello all
[10:47] <dstaubsauger> hi, how can i compress 2 directories into one .tar.lzma archive?
[10:48] <Diverdude> ok, so i download ubuntu live CD and put it on a CD and boot with it?
[10:48] <valentinex> how to run smb?
[10:48] <Jordan_U> !clone (don't know if this works between releases) | jibadeeha
[10:48] <valentinex> smbd
[10:48] <jibadeeha> Jordan_U, okay thanks
[10:48] <Appl6> Diverdude: That's right.  If you already have an ubuntu CD you can use that one.
[10:48] <Jordan_U> !clone | (don't know if this works between releases) jibadeeha
[10:48] <twoshot> test
[10:48] <Diverdude> Appl6, i am now running 9.10, does it matter if the livCD is another ubuntu version?
[10:49] <jibadeeha> okay will try that
[10:49] <Appl6> Diverdude: Nope, it doesn't matter what version of Ubuntu it is.
[10:49] <Giles> how can I diagnose plymouth?
[10:49] <Jordan_U> Diverdude: You'll have to upgrade to 10.04 after installing 9.10 though.
[10:49] <Appl6> Mrokii: Are you still there?  I don't know what your issue was, or if it was fixed.
[10:50] <valentinex> and who will help me about this error message i was trying to share a folder 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. The connection was refused. Maybe smbd is not running.
[10:50] <Diverdude> Jordan_U, But i am not going to install 9.10
[10:51] <Diverdude> i just want to merge those partitions into my existing ubuntu disk
[10:51] <Jordan_U> Diverdude: What I am saying is that you can only install 9.10 from a 9.10 liveCD
[10:51] <valentinex> hehehe sudo smbd
[10:51] <Mrokii> Appl6:  My issue is that the installer started the upgrade vom 9.10 to 10.04 until he started to install the upgrade. Lots of that went fine, but now it the installer seems to hang. It shows "Unpacking replacement memtest86+ ..." for maybe 20 minutes in the terminal
[10:52] <Jordan_U> Diverdude: If you don't mind a really ugly and slightly more complicated installer then try the minimal install CD (the end result is the same as you would get from installing with the standard LiveCD)
[10:52] <Twiztid>  is xubuntu     ubuntu with xfce?
[10:52] <Appl6> Jordan_U: DiverDude is just using another Ubuntu liveCD to use gparted.  He's just shuffling partitions around.
[10:52] <Diverdude> Appl6, hmm but ok, lets say i can back up sda3 and sda5 no problems...i dont care if data get deleted....But i want to merge them with sda7, which contain my current ubuntu....and i do not want anything to happen to sda7...is that possible?
[10:52] <Jordan_U> Diverdude: Sorry, wrong nick (I need to go to sleep:)
[10:52] <fredl> what's the Ubuntu way of restarting bluetoothd?
[10:52] <Diverdude> Jordan_U, ohh hehe that's ok :)
[10:53] <andrea93> hi, how i can join the italian channel _
[10:53] <Twiztid> Jordan_U: is xubuntu the same as ubuntu with xfce?
[10:53] <bazhang> andrea93, /join #ubuntu-it
[10:53] <andrea93> thanks
[10:53] <Jordan_U> Radim_: If you don't mind a really ugly and slightly more complicated installer then try the minimal install CD (the end result is the same as you would get from installing with the standard LiveCD)
[10:53] <fredl>  '/etc/init.d/bluetooth start' doesn't work on ubuntu
[10:54] <Jordan_U> Twiztid: It's a different set of default applications also.
[10:54] <Diverdude> Appl6, do you know if that may be done?
[10:54] <Appl6> Diverdude: Absolutely.  What you will do is this:  1.  Backup sda3 and sda5.  2.  Boot the liveCD and run gparted.  3.  Delete sda3 and sda5.  Resize sda7 so that it takes up all the space where sda3 and sda5 used to be.  4.  Hit Apply.  It will take a while, but when it's done you won't have sda3 or 5 any more, and sda7 will be big.
[10:54] <Radim_> no ubuntu iso image fits on 650MB disk?
[10:54] <fredl>  'service bluetooth start' doesn't work
[10:54] <Jordan_U> !minimal | Radim_
[10:54] <Appl6> Mrokii: One second, let me look around and see if other people have run into your problem before.
[10:55] <Mrokii> Appl6:  Okay, thanks.
[10:55] <Diverdude> Appl6, ahh that is wonderful :) And resize sda7 will not affect the data?
[10:55] <bushbaby> fredl: '/etc/init.d/bluetooth restart' should do it
[10:55] <hello242424> hi there
[10:56] <Appl6> Diverdude: I have resized many partitions with gparted and never had a problem, so yes, sda7 SHOULD be fine.  However, there's always a chance that something goes wrong, so if you can backup sda7, then do it.
[10:56] <hello242424> i partitioned my hard disk using gparted from ubuntu live cd , then installed windows xp on first partition , but now when i start the ubuntu live cd to install ubuntu , it cant find any partitions and shows whole hard disk as blank
[10:56] <hello242424> what do i do
[10:56] <fredl> bushbaby - nope. restart does stop/start. Start doesn't do anything, just says udev should take care of starting up bluetooth
[10:56] <hello242424> but nautilus can browser all partitions very fine
[10:56] <Diverdude> Appl6, okay, i will do that...grat..ill just create a liveCD then
[10:57] <Twiztid> Jordan_U: hrm, ok but theorettically i can use ubuntu compatable programs with it?, basically get a 'pre-slimmed' ubuntu... xfce faster than gnome but does it support eyecandy? im trying to get compiz running smooth WITH KMS enabled, so I can also use the cario-dock which requires GLX 1.3; compiz only seems to work for me with UMS... =(
[10:57] <Diverdude> Appl6, thank you for your advice.
[10:57] <Diverdude> Appl6, I hope it is ok if i ask you again later
[10:57] <Appl6> Diverdude: You're welcome.  Good luck!  And sure, come back when you're done.
[10:58] <Jordan_U> Twiztid: Any application you use in one version of Ubuntu can be used in any other, they share the same repositories with just a differet set of default applications
[10:58] <ruby_on_tails> on terminal if I pass a command to make me a pdf file, do I have to pass some more commands to close the process ?
[10:58] <Diverdude> Appl6, this is the liveCD right? http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download
[10:58] <An_Ony_Moose> when I switch to a TTY and when I'm booting, the screen looks like this http://imagebin.org/96091 . Is the resolution not being set correctly, or is it something else? And how can I fix it?
[10:58] <Appl6> hello242424: When you choose the "Install" option and get to the point where it looks like it's not showing your partitions, choose the "Manually partition my hard drive" entry.  That should show you your partitions.
[10:58] <ruby_on_tails> because suddenly my script wwas working but now terminal says that failed loading page http://filename.pdf
[10:59] <Appl6> Diverdude: That's right.
[10:59] <hello242424> let me try that
[10:59] <fredl> If I reboot my computer, bluetoothd is actually started but the hci0 device remains down even though bluetooth applet thinks it's up
[11:00] <hello242424> Appl6, no that is not showing the partitions either
[11:00] <hello242424> fdisk -l is showing the partitions fine
[11:00] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: What is the exact command being run (you can add "set -x" to the beginning of your script to see what commands are being run)
[11:00] <hello242424> but gparted or ubuntu installer are not able to list my partitions
[11:00] <fredl> when I manually do 'hciconfig hci0 up' the interface is in fact brought up
[11:01] <ddas4> hello
[11:01] <Appl6> hello242424: Are all your partitions on one hard drive?
[11:01] <hello242424> yes
[11:01] <hello242424> they all are on 1 hard drive
[11:01] <irwan> hi
[11:01] <fredl> but when I then try to do anything through bluetooth-applet, bluetoothd crashes and cannot be restarted.
[11:01] <hello242424> and 1 partition has a lot of data
[11:01] <bushbaby> fredl: have you looked therough dmesg to see if bluetooth starts correctly and recognises the device after starting up?
[11:01] <Twiztid> Jordan_U: awesome thx... whats this i hear about the gallium 3d driver? any good? or whats the best driver for my ati x1300 radeon card;; and lastly, how do i install the xorg edgers? i heard they help performance too...?
[11:01] <ddas4> just upgraded to lucid from karmic .. and firefox does not start. Begins and then kills itself
[11:01] <hello242424> i can browser all partitions fine with nautilus in live cd , fdisk -l is showing the partitions correctly
[11:01] <Appl6> hello242424: If you could, please pastebin "fdisk -l ; mount -l", and imagebin a screenshot of the installer at the Manual partitioning window.
[11:01] <fredl> bushbaby - yup, bluetoothd starts correctly but never brings hci0 up
[11:02] <ddas4> command "firefox %u"
[11:02] <Appl6> ddas4: Try starting firefox from the command line with "firefox -safe-mode".
[11:02] <hello242424> apple6 http://codepad.org/wRhvNadb
[11:03] <fredl> bushbaby - so after a reboot, bluetoothd is running, but hciconfig shows hci0 down and there's no way to get it up and running through the applet
[11:03] <hello242424> actually just sometime back gparted was showing partitions fine , that time i left 1 partition raw ,
[11:03] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: hmm
[11:03] <ruby_on_tails> just one command being execute
[11:03] <hello242424> i installed xp on that partition and xp partitioned the raw partition as ntfs
[11:03] <hello242424> now when i come back in ubuntu live , gparted shows whole harddisk as blank
[11:03] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: I think I need to install the flash plugin for this webkit somehow
[11:03] <ruby_on_tails> else it can't render flash stuff
[11:04] <bushbaby> fredl: This [ http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=969377 ] may be of some assitance prehaps? It applies to hardy but covers similar sounding issues.
[11:04] <Appl6> hello242424: Maybe try Reload in gparted?
[11:04] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: Running flash without X is going to be hard.
[11:04] <bushbaby> fredl: Intrepid*
[11:04] <hello242424> apple6 did that
[11:04] <hello242424> doesnt work
[11:04] <fredl> bushbaby - current version is called Karmic right?
[11:05] <An_Ony_Moose> when I switch to a TTY and when I'm booting, the screen looks like this http://imagebin.org/96091 . Is the resolution not being set correctly, or is it something else? And how can I fix it?
[11:05] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: but I think I am on X ?
[11:05] <Twiztid> fredl: Lucid Lunx
[11:05] <ruby_on_tails> you said ubuntu has X or X has ubuntu, sorry am a complete n00b
[11:05] <Twiztid> Lynx*
[11:05] <bushbaby> fredl: 10.04 is Lucid Lynx, 9.10 is Karmic Koala
[11:05] <ddas4> @Appl6: tried running firefox in safe mode. Getting error .. Attempting to load the system libmoon
[11:05] <ddas4> Segmentation fault
[11:05] <fredl> okay then I'm on Lucid Lynx...
[11:05] <fredl> bushbaby, reading through that thread....
[11:06] <Dr_Willis> ruby_on_tails:  X is what does teh 'gui' on most Unix/Linx systems
[11:06] <hello242424> apple6 this is what the installer says >> http://img291.imageshack.us/i/screenshotnl.png/
[11:06] <hello242424> http://img291.imageshack.us/i/screenshotnl.png/
[11:06] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: Does the computer running this script have a GUI?
[11:06] <robertzaccour> will gnome-shell work in xfce?
[11:06] <Appl6> hello242424: Thanks for the screenshots, I'll look at them in a second.
[11:06] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: yes, its my computer only
[11:06] <technikfreak> hello together i am searching for a small and easy voip software i find ekiga is too big
[11:06] <ruby_on_tails> I am on ubuntu
[11:06] <Dr_Willis> robertzaccour:  try it and see - i would bnet there would be some issues
[11:06] <Appl6> ddas4: Look at the first few lines of "aptitude show libmoon".  What does the "State" line say?
[11:07] <fredl> find it hard to believe I'm looking through a thread that's 2 years old on problems with bluetooth and I have exactly the same problems now....
[11:07] <ddas4> @Appl6: State line says Installed
[11:08] <bushbaby> fredl: Searching about a bit for similar issues seems to suggest there's quite a few bluetooth issues regarding Lucid. [ https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/577185 ] Is that similar? It could be unsolved..
[11:08] <hello242424> apple6 , i have data on all other partitions which are ext4 , cant loose them
[11:08] <hello242424> how do i get to view the partitions and install ubuntu
[11:08] <Dr_Willis> 'data worth keeping - is data worth backing up'
[11:08] <Appl6> ddas4: It appears to be a known Firefox bug.  Try "aptitude remove libmoon" and then try running firefox again.
[11:09] <Diverdude> Appl6, does it matter if one of the partions i want to delete is formated in ntfs? can gparted see such a partion?
[11:09] <michael1982> hey all
[11:09] <robertzaccour> firefox lags, been using chromium for a couple months now
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  gparted can 'see' ntfs partitions. but in order for it to actually do most things to them. You need the ntfs tools package installed.
[11:09] <michael1982> i can't play flight sim without it shutting my comp down help
[11:09] <hello242424> did this happen because i formatted a partition in while installing windows
[11:09] <Appl6> Diverdude: gparted can delete any kind of partition with no problems.  You might run into problems if you try resizing the NTFS partition though.
[11:09] <technikfreak> does anyone know a good voip software
[11:09] <Twiztid> xubuntu still uses grub 2 right?
[11:09] <robertzaccour> technikfreak, skype?
[11:10] <fredl> bushbaby - yeah reading through some threads myself too, seems this has been festering for quite some time
[11:10] <alieno> hi folks
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> michael1982:  give the channel more details so they dont have to ask 20+ questions to get to  the actual problem.. what game, where, when, how often...
[11:10] <fredl> bushbaby, I never had it working before on Ubuntu....
[11:10] <technikfreak> but robertzaccour this can't make voip calls
[11:10] <technikfreak> like with a real number
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> Twiztid:  it should be using grub2 yes.
[11:10] <hello242424> Apple6 , any idea
[11:10] <Appl6> hello242424: It looks like some of those partitions are mounted.  If the data is still there, you shouldn't have any problems.
[11:10] <fredl> bushbaby, seems everybody's suggesting to unstall the blueman, which unfortunately requires to remove gnome-desktop-environmenr :(
[11:11] <Dr_Willis> michael1982:  talk to the channel.  I rarely play games.
[11:11] <robertzaccour> technikfreak, it can call any phone, is that what you mean?
[11:11] <hello242424> Appl6 , yes they are mounted and data is there
[11:11] <technikfreak> yeah but i have an account from a sip ptrovider
[11:11] <hello242424> but how do i install ubuntu
[11:11] <hello242424> i need all paritions the way they are
[11:11] <Diverdude> Appl6, ok...but i think the sda7 partion which i am running ubuntu on now is a linux filesystem...is there any way i can check that?
[11:11] <hello242424> the installer shows the hard disk flat grey , the screenshot
[11:11] <Dr_Willis> michael1982:  talk to the channel.  <---------------------------  Speak in here.. not in private
[11:12] <ruby_on_tails> Dr_Willis: Jordan_u I am getting this error if this makes any sense to you ?

[11:12] <Appl6> hello242424: Can you show me the screenshot after you select "Specify partitions manually"?
[11:12] <hello242424> its the same grey thing
[11:12] <michael1982> like i said i try to start playing flight gear and the sound is static then my comp shuts down
[11:13] <Appl6> Diverdude: Try fdisk -l.
[11:13] <bushbaby> fredl: I'm not sure then. I guess you could remove it and then make note of all other packages that are removed, reinstalling them through apt in the command line afterwards.
[11:13] <hello242424> it says prepare partitions , create new partition table button at the bottom
[11:13] <Appl6> Spasysheep: Use "df -h" to see how much free space you have.
[11:13] <Twiztid> Dr_Willis: thx good, im trying to find out why my UMS enabled Ubuntu Lucid Lynx installation loves Compiz, yet... KMS Compiz is horrible...
[11:13] <ddas4> @Appl6: thanks, Removing moonlight worked. Is this a firefox bug or a moonlight one ? It used to work just fine with Karmic --- Lucid created this problem
[11:14] <fredl> bushbaby - it seems that a big problem happens because bluetoothd crashes somehow when it's in udev mode
[11:14] <Diverdude> Appl6, it returns nothing
[11:14] <Appl6> ddas4: It's a recent firefox bug.  See here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/563036
[11:14] <bushbaby> fredl: Have you got a log of the crash? Pastebin if so.
[11:14] <michael1982> help
[11:14] <bazhang> michael1982, with what
[11:14] <Twiztid> Dr_Willis: however, installing the gallium 3d driver improved compiz performance with KMS enabled
[11:14] <hello242424> Appl6 , http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/1663/screenshot1se.png
[11:15] <michael1982> with flight gear
[11:15] <Appl6> hello242424: Could you post the screenshot, please?  It's easy to do at http://imagebin.org/.
[11:15] <bazhang> michael1982, windows app?
[11:15] <Appl6> hello242424: OK, I see the post, thanks.
[11:15] <michael1982> yes
[11:15] <greezmunkey> I am on a desktop, but find that laptop-mode seems to be enabled. Any tips on disabling that, maybe in power setting I'm thinking???
[11:15] <Appl6> Diverdude: Try "sudo fdisk -l".
[11:15] <hello242424> Appl6 , need to do something to get the partitions detected , and not loose any data
[11:15] <bazhang> michael1982, check the appdb, help in #winehq
[11:15] <bazhang> !appdb | michael1982
[11:16] <jozefk> sudo blkid
[11:16] <fredl> bushbaby, when running in udev mode there's no crash message. Instead I tried simply bluetoothd -n -d and I get this http://pastebin.com/tVwXA1rg
[11:16] <PeterNL> Hi, what versions of fglrx and/or amdccle have working overscan controls forr the HD2600XT? I'm using fglrx (I think 10.2) on Ubuntu 9.04
[11:16] <ddas4> @Appl6 .. got it. I also do not see ubuntu splash screen when it starts Lucid. Have they removed the splash screen in lucid ?
[11:16] <Diverdude> Appl6, what does it mean: "Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary."
[11:17] <fredl> bushbaby, that happens when I 1) start up bluetoothd -n -d manually, 2) do a manual hciconfig hci0 up and 3) try to connect to a bluetooth device using the bluetooth applet
[11:17] <Appl6> Diverdude: It's a warning that used to matter a long time ago, but it doesn't any more.  It's safe to ignore.
[11:17] <Diverdude> Appl6, aha, ok that is good
[11:17] <mrfelton> mysql: relocation error: mysql: symbol strmov_overlapp, version libmysqlclient_16 not defined in file libmysqlclient.so.16 with link time reference
[11:17] <mrfelton> anyone seen it before?
[11:17] <mrfelton> know how to get around it?
[11:17] <Appl6> ddas4: No, there's still a splash screen, but I've heard a lot of people having problems with it, so maybe be happy you don't have it =P.
[11:17] <Spasysheep> Appl6: command not found
[11:17] <hello242424> Appl6 what do i do
[11:17] <mrfelton> this happened since upgradeing to 10.04
[11:17] <mrfelton> same as describe at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9256023
[11:18] <Diverdude> Appl6, it says Linux system under sda7
[11:18] <Diverdude> Appl6, so i guess its ok
[11:18] <Appl6> hello242424: The only thing I can suggest right now is that you reboot and try looking at it in gparted again.
[11:18] <Appl6> hello242424: I'll try to find some reasons why gparted can't see it in the mean time.
[11:18] <bushbaby> fredl: Are you running x86 or x86_64?
[11:18] <hello242424> i rebooted several times
[11:18] <Diverdude> Appl6, ok, brb, need to reboot
[11:18] <jozefk> Diverdude, do sudo blkid   that will be more clear for you :)
[11:18] <Appl6> Diverdude: OK.
[11:18] <hello242424> but gparted or ubuntu installer cant see the partitions
[11:18] <hello242424> did it happen because i formattted ntfs partition during xp installation ?
[11:19] <hello242424> because before that gparted was showing the partitions fine
[11:19] <Guest21909> I wonder if ubuntu can see installation image file on ntfs...?
[11:19] <Appl6> hello242424: That could have caused it, but if you can mount the partitions and fdisk can see them, then something is messed up with gparted.
[11:19] <Guest21909> I wonder if ubuntu installer can see installation image file on ntfs...?
[11:19] <fredl> bushbaby, AFAIK x86 but how do I check?
[11:20] <PeterNL> Hi, what versions of fglrx and/or amdccle have working overscan controls forr the HD2600XT? I'm using fglrx (I think 10.2) on Ubuntu 9.04 32bit
[11:20] <Appl6> Spasysheep: Ha, sorry, what command did I tell you to try?
[11:20] <Dr_Willis> Guest21909:  what do you mean 'installation image file' ?
[11:20] <Spasysheep> Appl6: df -h
[11:20] <Appl6> Spasysheep: There's so much spam -.-
[11:20] <hello242424> Appl6 is there something wrong with the parition tables
[11:20] <hello242424> shud i do something like recreate them
[11:20] <Guest21909> the first installation cd...?
[11:20] <agoln> Ok, so I just downloaded and installed ubuntu on my Dell studio 15, but my wireless doesn't work.  I used to use Linux a long time ago (and ubuntu in 06/07 days), but i'm stuck on why it doesn't recognize my wireless and why it donesn't 'just work'.  This is totally why I usually use Windows - what do I have to do to use linux???
[11:20] <Spasysheep> Appl6: df -h runs on my pc, but not the pc i'm trying to recover data on, which is a linux mint livecd
[11:20] <bushbaby> fredl: 'uname -a'
[11:20] <Dr_Willis> Guest21909:  you mean 'can the ubuntu installer install from a ubuntu iso file' ?
[11:21] <fredl> bushbaby, Linux boson 2.6.32-22-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP
[11:21] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  totally depends on the wireless chipset and how well the chipset makers support linux.
[11:21] <Guest21909> yes ,Dr_Willis
[11:21] <Appl6> Spasysheep: Wow.  I can't believe there's no df.
[11:21] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  the last 5 laptops ive put linux on. wireless has worked without me doing anything extra with them
[11:22] <agoln> So, as a technical person I understand what this means, but if I were my grandma, she would be clueless
[11:22] <Spasysheep> Appl6: how would i obtain it? is there a .deb i can install?
[11:22] <Dr_Willis> Guest21909:  you can set up grub2 to 'boot' and thus install from an iso file. but thats not quite the same as what you were asking
[11:22] <Appl6> hello242424: No, you don't want to recreate them.  I think the problem might be that there's a small overlap.
[11:22] <bushbaby> fredl: does it not read x86 or x86_64 in the readout?
[11:22] <hello242424> Appl6 , so what should be done now
[11:22] <Guest21909> grub2 can see img file on ntfs?
[11:22] <Appl6> hello242424: Really, you should backup your data and clean up the partition table.
[11:22] <fredl> bushbaby, Linux boson 2.6.32-22-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 28 13:27:30 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
[11:22] <fredl>  that's all of it
[11:22] <PeterNL> agoln: does your grandma know how to install (wifi) drivers on windows? ubuntu isn't that much harder for her.
[11:22] <Appl6> hello242424: The other thing is to be a little bit more patient =\.
[11:23] <agoln> When I do "ifconfig wlan0 up" I get "SIOCSIFFLAGS: no such file or directory - I've read this means somthing about firmware and shit, but where do I find how to get my wireless working
[11:23] <Dr_Willis> Guest21909:  grub2 can boot and "ISO" file is the grub2 menus are set up properly. Not sure if it can se ethem on NTFS. but it can see them on fat/extX partitions
[11:23] <PeterNL> agoln: (just think about it. I'm NOT starting a flamewar...)
[11:23] <Guest21909> agoln, ls pci ,please
[11:23] <Guest21909> hehe
[11:23] <SalmonSam> agoln, System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers
[11:23] <Appl6> Spasysheep: I think something is wrong with your setup actually.
[11:23] <agoln> No, but my grandma installs windows 7 and she clicks "connect to grandma's network"
[11:23] <agoln> it works
[11:23] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  install a wired connection and try the hardware-drivers tool in the menu for starters -> System -> admin -> hardware drivers
[11:23] <agoln> I don't even know where to click
[11:23] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  we dont care about windows 7 or your relateives.
[11:24] <datta> I got this huge problem in my face where whenever I go to certain sites such as blogger.com, both the Firefox browser and the Google Chrome redirects me to mywot.com and when I use epiphany however, this does not happen
[11:24] <Appl6> Spasysheep: Can you try "ls /bin | grep df"?
[11:24] <Spasysheep> appl6: >.<
[11:24] <jozefk> lol
[11:24] <Spasysheep> appl6: k
[11:24] <agoln> I don't have a wired connection
[11:24] <datta> I do not know what is wrong but it seems to me as a virus
[11:24] <PeterNL> agoln: my wifi hardware doesn't wotk out of the box on any OS (xp/winvista/ubuntu)
[11:24] <bushbaby> fredl: ok that's x86.  This [ https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-bluetooth/2009-October/006544.html ] recent bug that has the exact same error is on a x86_64 system but it could be replicable on an x86 system..
[11:24] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  then you may have to do things the hard way. - i would suggest figureing out a way to get a wired connection for a short amount of time. it will posibally make things MUCH easier.
[11:24] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[11:25] <Twiztid> basically i want the compiz cube effects and emerald theme, and openGLcario-dock... 2.0GHZ cpu 1.25G RAM ATI Radeon X1300 515Mb Video Card (compiz runs flawlessly with KMS disabled but cario-dock calls for GLX 1.3 in whick I only have 1.2) What can I do to get CompizEffects and Cario-dock running together?
[11:25] <datta> all the help on google comes to saying that it's from a virus, so does Ubuntu really got these types of virus?
[11:25] <agoln> system=>hardware=>hardware drives [11:25] <fredl> bushbaby, looks like it, it crashed when I tried to the headset device of my tomtom, other devices seem to work without crashing bluetoothd
[11:25] <Guest21909> agoln,use lspci to see if your system support ur wireless chip
[11:25] <bazhang> datta, no
[11:25] <Gryllida> How do I update to latest Firefox in Terminal? (v. 3.6.3)
[11:25] <Dr_Willis> datta:  try a differnt browser like Opera or  chrome. if those are also affected. it could be some DNS issue
[11:25] <fredl> bushbaby, trying to discover my Android from the applet now, also seems to be broken, keeps scanning forever...
[11:26] <Dr_Willis> datta:  also try making a new user. see if their firefox is also affected.
[11:26] <erUSUL> Gryllida: what ubuntu version ?
[11:26] <datta> Dr_Wills: epiphany does not give me this problem but chrome gives me the problem
[11:26] <jozefk> agoln, that message is coz u r not connected to Internet... that's why they asked you to connect with wire first if it is possible..
[11:26] <Spasysheep> appl6: turns out it is there, my friend typed 'run df -h' when i told her to "run df -h in the terminal"
[11:26] <agoln> PeterNL: Windows7 comes with the drivers she needs, or at least when she installs windows 7 wireless works (ubuntu doesn't come with drivers that work for this laptop)
[11:26] <Appl6> Spasysheep: Hahaha.
[11:27] <Dr_Willis> datta:  interesting.  Try a newly made user. see if it affects them as well.
[11:27] <Guest21909> haha,run!!!!!!!!!!
[11:27] <jozefk> agoln, because the driver could be not free
[11:27] <datta> Dr_Wills, okay I will try that
[11:27] <jozefk> not free - proprietary
[11:27] <PeterNL> agoln: your grandma is lucky.
[11:27] <fredl> bushbaby, hcitool scan works just peachy but the bluetooth applet seems to try to communicate directly to bluetoothd (and fail eventually)
[11:27] <Twiztid> anyone suggestions? basically i want the compiz cube effects and emerald theme, and openGLcario-dock... 2.0GHZ cpu 1.25G RAM ATI Radeon X1300 515Mb Video Card (compiz runs flawlessly with KMS disabled but cario-dock calls for GLX 1.3 in whick I only have 1.2) What can I do to get CompizEffects and Cario-dock running together?
[11:27] <Appl6> Spasysheep: Well "df -h" is supposed to give a list of mounted partitions and the free and used space on them.
[11:27] <Gryllida> erUSUL, 9.04 (jaunty)
[11:27] <jozefk> FloodBot4,  is so smart :)
[11:27] <bushbaby> fredl: It could be that then. The bug was posted last October so i'm not sure wether it's fixed yet or not..
[11:27] <erUSUL> !emerald | Twiztid
[11:28] <erUSUL> !backports  | Gryllida
[11:28] <agoln> lspci sounds familar (and is probably what I was looking for)....... broadcom bcm4312.... that at least gives me something more to look for
[11:28] <Gryllida> ubottu, ??? ok
[11:28] <fredl> bushbaby https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-bluetooth/2009-October/006545.html, looks like that's supposed to be some sort of 'solution'
[11:28] <erUSUL> !broadcom | agoln
[11:28] <hello242424> Appl6 , some pages on internet say that if any paritions overlap then gparted shows nothing
[11:28] <jozefk> that's it broadcom... that's why it's not working out of the box, agoln
[11:28] <Spasysheep> Appl6: yea, there's 927gb free on the drive it's being recovered to, but still getting disk full error
[11:28] <erUSUL> agoln: in that page there are instructions for offline install of the drivers
[11:28] <hello242424> do u think any partition is overlapping in my case
[11:28] <Guest21909> anyone in china?
[11:28] <Guest21909> hehe
[11:28] <FardadJalili> what does : , [[ and ]] do in shell?
[11:29] <Twiztid> erUSUL: ok forget emerald... just openGL cario-dock and compiz i harmony?
[11:29] <bazhang> !cn | Guest21909
[11:29] <erUSUL> agoln: FWIW this cards do not work out of the box in linux becouse broadcom does not let linux distros distribute the firmware.... so blame them and not linux
[11:29] <Guest21909> bazhang!
[11:29] <agoln> Sweet, that's what I was looking for... thanks for the help! (I do appreciate it, but honestly this is one of the biggest gripes I have with Linux & why I couldn't recommend it to non-techs)
[11:29] <Guest21909> hahahaa
[11:29] <Appl6> hello242424: Oh, another problem is that you have to install Ubuntu on a primary partition, not extended.
[11:29] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  broadcom drivers have been getting a lot of work in differnt areas  in the last few releases.   But it also depends on the exact ### of the chipset.   You may want to check the ubuntu forums for the  bcm4312 info. there should be some threads on its setup
[11:29] <erUSUL> Twiztid: yes ati cards should be able to support 3d just fine
[11:29] <bazhang> Guest21909, yes?
[11:30] <bushbaby> frdl: Looks like the original bug poster was updating stats about the system and the dependencies etc. I'm looking for any solution now but to no avail..
[11:30] <Appl6> hello242424: That doesn't explain why gparted shows you nothing, but in order to install Ubuntu you'll need another primary partition.
[11:30] <FardadJalili> agoln: I use 4313
[11:30] <igoryon> hello, when I do: wget -c --header="Content-length: 4700000\n" http://membres.multimania.fr/adrislayer/terrelune.png
[11:30] <Guest21909> no remind,please!I know little english,ubottu
[11:30] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  given the issues ive had with windows.. i cant recocomend windows for Non-techs either.
[11:30] <FardadJalili> agoln: *4312
[11:30] <igoryon> (I tried \n\n also) It says: ERROR 413: Request Entity Too Large.
[11:30] <igoryon> When I do: wget -c --header="Content-length: 4700000" http://membres.multimania.fr/adrislayer/terrelune.png
[11:30] <igoryon> It says: 400 Bad Request
[11:30] <igoryon> The reason, I have to add this header is because, the server with this image doesn't provide Content-Length header, and download always breaks at different places in the middle, showing 100% downloaded, but I know that the download is incomplete, but the actual image on the server is complete.
[11:30] <igoryon> What am I doing wrong?
[11:30] <bazhang> Guest21909, did you have a support question?
[11:30] <hello242424> Apple6, but i have been installing ubuntu on a logical partition inside an extended partition
[11:30] <fredl> do Ubuntu maintainers actually get paid?
[11:30] <FardadJalili> agoln: what is your problem?
[11:30] <bazhang> Guest21909, if not then chat in #ubuntu-offtopic NOT here
[11:31] <erUSUL> fredl: some do (main repo) some do not (motu)
[11:31] <Appl6> hello242424: Well, you can't boot from a logical partition.  Were you using the Windows bootloader instead of grub?
[11:31] <fredl> erUSUL, hmm.
[11:31] <datta> well the problem persits to go on
[11:31] <redha> hi
[11:31] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  its very possible that the  hardware-drivers tool if you were 'wired' for a few minets. could find and install  the proper drivers with just a few clicks
[11:31] <datta> i have not a single clue on what has happened
[11:32] <Guest21909> not yet,I want to know why ubuntu keeps to be so silly after upgrading of times...haha
[11:32] <sillycat98> can you boot to a linux partiton using the windows loader? o.O
[11:32] <redha> hi
[11:32] <redha> I said hi
[11:32] <jozefk> redha, hi
[11:32] <agoln> FardadJalili: 1.) Wireless didn't work out of box (i.e. it doesn't show avaialbe networks as I think it should), and 2.) when attempting to 'ifconfig wlan0 up', I get SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory
[11:32] <erUSUL> sillycat98: ntldr can be configured to launch grub (installed in a partition mbr) iirc
[11:32] <FardadJalili> agoln: did you tried the driver in the broadcom site?
[11:32] <FardadJalili> *try
[11:32] <datta> i have created the new user and logged in through that and still blogger.com now shows a "untrusted " site in firefox
[11:32] <erUSUL> agoln: many people has already told you what you have to do
[11:33] <Appl6> Spasysheep: Two things I can think of.  Either your friend is copying things the wrong way by accident, or your friend is copying things onto the "liveCD" instead of onto the 1 TB drive.  If the liveCD runs out of space then things stop working.
[11:33] <sillycat98> had no idea about that
[11:33] <Dr_Willis> agoln: that chipset seems to use the (older b43) drivers. or the newer (sta) drivers
[11:33] <redha> can you help me i need information for (wine) program
[11:33] <erUSUL> agoln: also i told you what you have to blame for the disaster
[11:33] <jozefk> datta, :) you are using some firefox add-ons most probably
[11:33] <PeterNL> Hi, in what version of fglrx or amdccle do i have working overscan settings?
[11:33] <Spasysheep> appl6: hrmmm
[11:33] <agoln> yes, read those forums (which I am about to do), but the simple fact is, I downloaded the Ubuntu ISO, installed it, and when it booted, the wireless didn't work
[11:33] <Appl6> Spasysheep: By "copying onto the liveCD" I mean that the liveCD makes a small fake hard drive out of your extra RAM, and it fills up pretty fast.
[11:33] <datta> and in epiphany, blogger.com shows a canonical page
[11:33] <SalmonSam> agoln, are you able to connect to the "internet" some other way?
[11:33] <bazhang> redha, sure; check the appdb and look for help in #winehq
[11:33] <erUSUL> agoln: that's entirely broadcom fault
[11:33] <bazhang> !appdb | redha
[11:33] <datta> sayign that canonical: sorry the request page was not found
[11:33] <Guest21909> agoln,I 'm guest...
[11:33] <erUSUL> agoln: do not buy its products
[11:34] <Guest21909> you should get the following cds...
[11:34] <erUSUL> !broadcom > agoln
[11:34] <Guest21909> not in the first ones
[11:34] <redha> thank you
[11:34] <bazhang> Guest21909, stay on topic
[11:34] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  i agree with  erUSUL  - broadcom has dosent care about Linux, so its basically their fault.
[11:34] <Guest21909> ok
[11:34] <Spasysheep> appl6: yea i know, im just trying to confirm what's going on with the copying. seems the external hdd was mounted at two places, which probably didn't help
[11:34] <agoln> Broadcom fault? So if I want to buy a laptop... I have to totally research which wireless chipset comes with the laptop before I buy it before I choose which to buy?
[11:34] <agoln> How do I know that?
[11:34] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  if you want to use linux with it - Yes.
[11:34] <bazhang> agoln, yes
[11:34] <jozefk> agoln, right
[11:34] <FardadJalili> agoln: bcm4312 doesn't work out of the box, you have to download the driver yourself and compile it as far as I know.
[11:34] <datta> google chrome tells me that there is an ssl error that the site you are trying to readh identifies as shop.canonical.com
[11:34] <fredl> agoln - trial and terror
[11:34] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  I always do such research
[11:34] <agoln> Does Dell tell me "IF you want to use Linux, don't buy this laptop?
[11:35] <Guest21909> agoln,follow intel and are****
[11:35] <erUSUL> *plonk*
[11:35] <Guest21909> haha
[11:35] <Error403> how do i connect to my ubuntu machine from my windows machine using SSH but without having to enter a username and password?
[11:35] <FardadJalili> agoln: if you have a wired internet access it's really easy to make it work
[11:35] <agoln> No, they say "It has 50ghz CPU with 10gb ram, buy this, it's great"
[11:35] <datta> really weird problem of which i have no clue on how to proceed
[11:35] <Error403> i know its using pub and priv keys, but not really sure what more?
[11:35] <PeterNL> agoln: if you'd ask dell, they might just say that...
[11:35] <hello242424> Appl6 , i think there is something wrong with the partition table , is there a way to generate it
[11:35] <agoln> I say "Sweet, it's what I'm looking for"
[11:35] <jozefk> FardadJalili, there is a driver available. you can install it from Ubuntu. no need to do anything special. only few clicks
[11:35] <sillycat98> no wireless is bad enough but don't get a vaio, you'll get no video at all with ubuntu
[11:35] <agoln> Windows 7 works GREAT
[11:35] <michael1982> how do i add and remove  apps
[11:35] <hello242424> how do i recreate or regenerate the partition table
[11:35] <Error403> Ive created the keys on my win machine, what do i do with them on my ubuntu machine?
[11:35] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  we dont care about windows 7.
[11:35] <FardadJalili> jozefk: It didn't work for me
[11:35] <jrib> agoln: dell only puts ubuntu on certain laptopts.  If a hardware manufacturer refuses to help linux devs, then things aren't going to work as well.  So if you want something that works, you should do some research, yes
[11:35] <PeterNL> agoln: only if your lucky :D
[11:35] <PeterNL> Hi, in what version of fglrx or amdcccle do i have working overscan settings?
[11:35] <agoln> Linux says "OMG, BROADCOM WTF DUDDEEEEZZZZZZORR????!?!?!?!?!??!?! NOT FREE, DONT WORK"
[11:35] <fredl> agoln - then use Windows 7
[11:36] <jozefk> FardadJalili, for me it worked
[11:36] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  take ranting to #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:36] <datta> does anyone think that this problem might be from my internet provider?
[11:36] <Yesso> lol
[11:36] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  its 'broadcom' saying -> 'linux? who needs you...'
[11:36] <agoln> I'm just sayin, people gave me the forum URL for this broadcom driver, I'm greatful - I really do appreciate it
[11:36] <fredl> unfortunately broadcom chipsets are in MANY wifi adapters
[11:36] <agoln> I forgot about lspci, thanks for bringing it back to memory
[11:36] <sillycat98> i always just plug into the wired on my router and download the driver on my hp laptops >.>
[11:36] <jrib> agoln: what you should do is contact broadcom and tell them you want them to support linux
[11:37] <Dr_Willis> agoln:  take the laptop to someplace where you can plug in a cable.. and i imagine you can get it going in just a few min.
[11:37] <john_b> hello - having mouse problems - new install 10.04 mouse loses focus on window right after boot, if I kill X and log back in, its fine till next boot, TIA
[11:37] <datta> Dr_Wills: i have created a new account, logged in, tried to go to blogger.com with three different browsers and still the same problem but different results
[11:37] <ManDay> How do I make transparency in gnome use FAKE transparency?
[11:37] <PeterNL> Hi, in what version of fglrx or amdcccle do i have working overscan settings?
[11:37] <Appl3Kork> quick question, the 10.04, if i download through a torrent, is the alternate i386 the 64 bit one?
[11:37] <Appl6> hello242424: Yes, you can do it with parted, but it's dangerous stuff.  I really recommend you backup your data first.  Also, looking at your fdisk output doesn't show an invalid partition table.
[11:37] <fredl> Broadcom essentially sucks NADS
[11:37] <Dr_Willis> datta:  3 diffrent browsers - give 3 differnt sites for blogger.com ?
[11:37] <sillycat98> why can't i get runescape hd to work with ubuntu 10.04 i386?
[11:37] <adiba> when i have made the update form 9.10 to 10.04 i have had a bug which made the update incomplete what i need an advice should i rollback or i wait to solve the bug
[11:37] <adiba> ??
[11:37] <jrib> agoln: as Dr_Willis is saying, to get my macbooks wireless to work, I just use wired internet, click on Hardware Drivers, install the STA driver, and done
[11:38] <Dr_Willis> jrib:  right 'sta' driver is what he needs i belive.
[11:38] <datta> Dr_Wills: actually this gave as now it's changed to the actual blogger page
[11:38] <oCean_> Appl3Kork: no, amd64 is
[11:38] <Appl3Kork> so the 64 bit is only for amd processors?
[11:38] <datta> Dr_Wills: it's playing hide and seek with me and the problem i think will come back again
[11:38] <hosomaki> no
[11:38] <Dr_Willis> datta:  hmm.. Could be your isp is having some DNS issues/attacks..
[11:38] <michael1982> wat will i lose if i upgrade
[11:38] <jozefk> i installed those STA drives 2 days ago and it works
[11:38] <hosomaki> for all 64bit processor
[11:38] <jrib> Appl3Kork: no, it works on intel.  That's just the name of the architecture
[11:38] <PeterNL> datta: Maybe it's a DNS propblem , your ISP's fault. But you can fix it. Google for OpenDNS.
[11:38] <agoln> Ok, cool - I will probably go over to the router and plug it in and add the software + more easily find the stuff i need (on other desktop now)
[11:38] <theadmin> I have a problem. System sometimes is slow, however after doing a fsck it starts running on normal speed... Well....
[11:38] <Error403> can anyone help with public and private keys for ssh?
[11:38] <oCean_> Appl3Kork: nope, also for intel
[11:38] <theadmin> This happened quite often recently
[11:38] <PeterNL> !opendns | datta
[11:39] <Appl3Kork> alright thanks
[11:39] <theadmin> michael1982: Nothing
[11:39] <Dr_Willis> datta:  try the opendns servers, or googles dns servers
[11:39] <jozefk> https://www.blogger.com/start   that's what I'm getting when open blogger.com
[11:39] <sillycat98> why can't i get runescape hd to work with ubuntu 10.04 i386? i have a sony vaio vpccw17fx with a nvidia geforce 210m
[11:39] <sillycat98> and yes i have java installed
[11:39] <adiba> due to the bug
[11:39] <Dr_Willis> jozefk:  mine rerouts to blogger.com/home :)  since i was logged in
[11:39] <sillycat98> what bug? o.O
[11:39] <Dr_Willis> wow my empty blog..
[11:39] <Appl6> hello242424: OH!  fdisk said it was omitting the empty partition sda4.  Maybe that's your problem, and you might try to delete it using parted.  But it's still dangerous, so please back up your data!
[11:40] <jozefk> i don;t use blogger.. :)
[11:40] <datta> PeterNL I will give this a shot but as i had not experienced these problems before, will takes some time
[11:40] <datta> jozefk: this is supposed to redirect to that site of theirs'
[11:40] <adiba> i can't remove or add pkg and i can't update the ditro
[11:40] <hyperstream> How do i go about getting my Asus WL-BTD202 Bluetooth USB working?
[11:40] <jozefk> datta, open it directly why not?
[11:40] <agoln> I'm sorry to bring up a flame war, partially my fault for saying some things I did, but thanks for the info (that really is why I came in here, i'd rather spend 5 minutes asking than spend an hour seacrching google), I'm headed over to the other room of the house to try and get this going (the information on this forum page seems to be what I need).
[11:40] <hyperstream> i have the bluez + utils installed
[11:40] <michael1982> so i won't lose anything'
[11:41] <datta> jozefk: open what directly?
[11:41] <hyperstream> I get this error in dmesg: [187636.404038] usb 4-2: device not accepting address 27, error -71
[11:41] <jozefk> the redirected page
[11:41] <theadmin> michael1982: Unless it breaks something. It's not highly probable, though
[11:41] <bushbaby> adiba: How did you do the update? LiveCD or through update-manager?
[11:41] <gorski> is it secure to install ati run graphic driver from amd.com?
[11:41] <michael1982> ok ill upgrade
[11:41] <igoryon> hello, when I do: wget -c --header="Content-length: 4700000\n" http://membres.multimania.fr/adrislayer/terrelune.png
[11:41] <igoryon> (I tried \n\n also) It says: ERROR 413: Request Entity Too Large.
[11:41] <igoryon> When I do: wget -c --header="Content-length: 4700000" http://membres.multimania.fr/adrislayer/terrelune.png
[11:41] <igoryon> It says: 400 Bad Request
[11:41] <igoryon> The reason, I have to add this header is because, the server with this image doesn't provide Content-Length header, and download always breaks at different places in the middle, showing 100% downloaded, but I know that the download is incomplete, but the actual image on the server is complete.
[11:41] <FloodBot1> igoryon: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:41] <hello242424> Appl6 , ok how do i delete that partition
[11:42] <adiba> trough the update manager
[11:42] <Dr_Willis> gorski:  using the driver/installer from amd's site.. can often fail badly
[11:42] <arand> gorski: likely more convenient to use the built-in manager.
[11:42] <Dr_Willis> gorski:  its best to use the ones in the package manager
[11:42] <Xethron> Hey, I have a really old PC and I was wondering if it would be a good idea to install Ubuntu onto it. I am currently running the live CD but its really slow. I dont know where to check for specs, but its roughly a AMD Duron 900MHz with just above 300mb ram, and 10 GB HDD space
[11:42] <Dr_Willis> Xethron:  more ram is always better.. but that system should work.
[11:42] <JackStoner> Xethron: maybe try xubuntu
[11:42] <Dr_Willis> Xethron:  you might want to check out lubuntu, or xubuntu
[11:43] <theadmin> Xethron: Don't expect live CD to ever be quick. It'd work but slow. Try lubuntu or xubuntu.
[11:43] <gorski> Dr_Willis: but i get no 3d acceleration with package manager drivers.
[11:43] <bushbaby> adiba: There have been quiote a few issues i know of where upgrading via update-manager has caused errors. I would have said the easiest option is to roll back and use a LiveCD if possible
[11:43] <hyperstream> !bluetooth
[11:43] <Dr_Willis> gorski:   ati has dropped support for many of their older cards. the ones from ati.com wont give them 3d either.
[11:43] <igoryon> Xethron: LiveCD is slow by itself, not because of a slow computer, but because of slow read from CD/DVD
[11:43] <Appl6> hello242424: Use parted, and inside that use "rm".  "man parted" for details.
[11:44] <adiba> i got to use which live CD of 10.04 or 9.04
[11:44] <theadmin> Appl6: Don't mess people up
[11:44] <Xethron> I can install Ubuntu and install the xfe pacages later to make it Xubuntu right?
[11:44] <adiba> sorry 9.10
[11:44] <gorski> Dr_Willis: if i install driver from amd, how can i recover if it fails, please?
[11:44] <theadmin> hello242424: Try GParted instead, it's simplier
[11:44] <theadmin> Xethron: Yes.
[11:44] <Xethron> Because I dont really have the internet to download abother CD... hehe
[11:44] <JackStoner> Xethron: why go through the trouble??
[11:44] <overmind> Xethron: And xubuntu-desktop package
[11:44] <hello242424> Appl6 , I have windows working on the first partition , would you suggest that i copy all data into the windows partition and then from windows i use some partition tool to recreate the partitions and comeback to the live cd ?
[11:44] <Appl6> theadmin: GParted isn't showing anything because the partition table is messed up.
[11:44] <overmind> Xethron: So you'll have xfce programms
[11:44] <bushbaby> adiba: What are you trying to upgrade to? and what from? 9.10 -> 10.04 ??
[11:44] <theadmin> Appl6: ...oh.
[11:44] <igoryon> Xethron: if you don't use compiz, etc., the computer should run ok
[11:44] <arand> Xethron: xubuntu will likely fail, lubuntu, slitaz, puppy, might be an option (chrunchbang?)
[11:45] <johnwilliam> hey guys i've some problems with installing the nvidia driver on my kubuntu 10.04
[11:45] <Appl6> theadmin: We're trying to fix up the partition table.  I also told him several times to backup because it's dangerous.
[11:45] <johnwilliam> http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=168090&pid=1051956&st=0&#entry1051956
[11:45] <adiba> yes
[11:45] <adiba> from 9.10 to 10.04
[11:45] <theadmin> arand: Xubuntu _should_ work on that machine... crunchbang is pretty meh.
[11:45] <hellyeah> hey
[11:45] <hellyeah> i cant compile opengl files
[11:45] <bushbaby> adiba: Then roll back and burn the 10.04 liveCD and upgrade using that.
[11:45] <hellyeah> pls help
[11:45] <zhxk>  which webbrowser is the lightest with scripts enabled?
[11:45] <icarus-c> johnwilliam, installing nvidia driver from their installer on nvidia.com is not recommended
[11:45] <johnwilliam> why icarus ? oO
[11:45] <gorski> is it safe to remove nvidia-common package, what is it for?
[11:45] <adiba> how to roll back
[11:45] <adiba> ??
[11:45] <theadmin> zhxk: Well... Chrome...
[11:46] <adiba> this is the bug http://bit.ly/dhQidb
[11:46] <erUSUL> zhxk: midori ?
[11:46] <hellyeah> i need help on opengl
[11:46] <Appl6> hello242424: If you have an external hard drive or something that would be the best.  The problem is that anything on that hard drive has a chance of getting lost when you mess with its partition table.
[11:46] <icarus-c> johnwilliam, coz it overwrite certain system component. things will likely break after update/changing graphics card
[11:46] <zhxk> i would like a browser be fit on arm based system
[11:46] <icarus-c> johnwilliam, there is a ubuntu package for it
[11:46] <johnwilliam> well, im using a notebook, so i wont change my graphic card
[11:46] <adiba> bushbaby:  how to roll back plz  ??
[11:46] <johnwilliam> ok thx i'll check this out htx
[11:46] <igoryon> Xethron, unless you have a good 3D accellerator
[11:46] <igoryon> Xethron: yes
[11:47] <igoryon> hello, when I do: wget -c --header="Content-length: 4700000\n" http://membres.multimania.fr/adrislayer/terrelune.png
[11:47] <Appl6> mrokii: Sorry for taking so long.  I can't find anyone who had the same problem.  Is the update still hung?
[11:47] <Dr_Willis> zhxk:  try chrome or its variants  it claims to be light
[11:47] <datta> well, the problem is grave as i tried the same with a laptop which uses the wireless network of the same ISP provider
[11:47] <xukun> movie playback stutters and it says buffering all the time if extract files on the disk at the same time. it's somehow possible to give mplayer more priority to the disk?
[11:47] <datta> and there does not seem to be any problem with the internet

[11:47] <igoryon> (I tried \n\n also) It says: ERROR 413: Request Entity Too Large.

[11:47] <theadmin> TheAwesomeGuy: What's the problem?
[11:48] <TheAwesomeGuy> but i just get a message telling me it needs more random bytes
[11:48] <Dr_Willis> datta:  try a live cd.. if it also has the issue.. then it has to be an isp isssue.. Unless your router is using some hacked dns.
[11:48] <zhxk> google chrome?
[11:48] <hyperstream> How do i go about getting my Asus WL-BTD202 Bluetooth USB working?
[11:48] <igoryon> When I do: wget -c --header="Content-length: 4700000" http://membres.multimania.fr/adrislayer/terrelune.png

[11:48] <FloodBot1> igoryon: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:48] <theadmin> TheAwesomeGuy: Press your keyboard, move the mouse, play around with the touchpad (if any)...
[11:48] <TheAwesomeGuy> Im trying to generate through an SSH connection
[11:48] <gorski> is it safe to remove nvidia-common package, what is it for?
[11:48] <TheAwesomeGuy> on a remote machine
[11:48] <TheAwesomeGuy> is that not possible?
[11:48] <Appl6> xukun: This link has some good information about ionice and what it does.  I think it's what you're looking for: http://friedcpu.wordpress.com/2007/07/17/why-arent-you-using-ionice-yet/
[11:48] <Xethron> igoryon, I dont really want compiz or anything to work. Just want a PC where they can use Internet, (Facebook and Gmail), work on documents and spreadsheets... Nothing fancy
[11:49] <Mrokii> Appl6:  It was, but I forced it to quit. I tried to repair things with apt-get, but now it hangs whenever it tries to run"update-grub" :(
[11:49] <bushbaby> adiba: It seems there's no direct rollback functionality. (Correct me anyone if i'm wrong here!) The only thing i can suggest is back up all your files and do a clean install from a 10.04 liveCD.
[11:49] <TheAwesomeGuy> Because my only accessible Ubuntu machine is a VPS
[11:49] <theadmin> TheAwesomeGuy: Welp, uh, just type some random stuff around then

[11:49] <TheAwesomeGuy> Through SSH]

[11:49] <TheAwesomeGuy> no change
[11:50] <theadmin> TheAwesomeGuy: Is it not possible to generate a key locally and import it on the remote machine? :/
[11:50] <Dr_Willis> datta:  sounds like a dns 'attack' or somthing - that got cleared up
[11:50] <TheAwesomeGuy> theadmin: Does GPG run on Mac OS X?
[11:50] <theadmin> TheAwesomeGuy: ...I'd suppose so, it's UNIX-based anyway.
[11:50] <datta> Dr_Willis: I don't think it got cleared as it comes back after every login
[11:50] <TheAwesomeGuy> hmmm....maybe I should try generating on my iphone
[11:51] <Appl6> Mrokii: Try "sudo aptitude safe-upgrade".
[11:51] <TheAwesomeGuy> thats UNIX based
[11:51] <igoryon> Xethron: should work fairly well, I have a 700Mhz Celleron with Kubuntu, and it runs fine.
[11:51] <m4rk_> why don't rhythmbox let me double click the toolbar to open it no more? in 10.4
[11:51] <adiba> bushbaby: thanks too much for your help , after a backup i will do that
[11:51] <theadmin> TheAwesomeGuy: Well you have to get to the terminal and install GPG firsthand somehow :D
[11:51] <Gryllida> hi
[11:51] <bushbaby> adiba: No problem. Good luck
[11:51] <TheAwesomeGuy> theadmin: Yeah I'm jailbroken, MobileTerminal, SSH etc
[11:51] <adiba> bushbaby: is rollback functionality available for older distros
[11:51] <Xethron> igoryon, How much ram do you have on that PC?
[11:51] <TheAwesomeGuy> and saurik did a great job of porting most of the Linux stuff over
[11:51] <datta> PeterNL: what should i choose for the DNS? Computer, Router or DNS server
[11:51] <zhxk> how can i start ubuntu on a partition from grub console?

[11:52] <theadmin> zhxk: root(1,1) or something, if I recall properly
[11:52] <zhxk> how can i start ubuntu on a partition from grub console, help me, if you?
[11:52] <erUSUL> !grub2
[11:52] <PeterNL> datta: don't ask me!
[11:53] <igoryon> how do I specify a Content-Length header in wget?
[11:53] <bushbaby> adiba: Older distro's? How so?
[11:53] <greezmunkey> Would someone give me an idea of what I am getting myself into - updating from grub-legacy to grug2. Can I do this on a running system? Maybe a good howto would be nice. TIA
