[13:09] <shubbar> ardchoille: how can i change the "icon theme"?
[13:09] <remin> what can I do???
[13:09] <bazhang> always_smile, medibuntu.org is where you need to check
[13:09] <boscop> nibbler: yes, but why does  it say there is no fs in /proc/mounts when there is?
[13:10] <ardchoille> shubbar: Preferences > Appearance and go to the Icon tab
[13:10] <nibbler> boscop, i have no idea what script triggers this errormessage
[13:10] <shubbar> ardchoille: sorry, i meant it was a thumbnail icon
[13:10] <nibbler> boscop, obv your root is properly mounted etc, it should just continue to init and thats it.
[13:10] <boscop> :(
[13:10] <ardchoille> shubbar: er,  Preferences > Appearance, click the "Customize" button and go to the Icons tab
[13:11] <ardchoille> shubbar: Oh, no idea about thumbnails, I don't use them
[13:11] <nibbler> boscop, but: congrats, your new kernel booted, and oyu have an interactive commandshell running with it!!! </sarcasm>
[13:11] <Flexy> jrib: in addition, the machine stucks every now and then.
[13:11] <boscop> nibbler: meh, I really need to work on it asap
[13:11] <remin>  resolution is gone with each login
[13:11] <Flexy> jrib: I got the links though...
[13:12] <boscop> it should work, I followed the instructions exactly
[13:12] <remin> #help
[13:12] <jrib> Flexy: yeah, check for that memory remapping option in your bios
[13:12] <nibbler> boscop, the kernel also has a initramfs which is specified in the "initrd" line. there is some script in it, and this script is fking up i suppose. but i cant help you there and some higher level solution for this problem would also be way more helpful
[13:12] <bradpitt> lilyshu, Dr_Willis said subnet will depend on her lan setup. <IP_ADDRESS> normall. and  dns should be given by her isp. or router.  or theres free dns servers she could try. she could try dns server ip  of  <IP_ADDRESS>   and <IP_ADDRESS>,  but using dhcp is supposed to 'automatically' get that info
[13:13] <boscop> nibbler: what should I do?
[13:13] <jacquesdupontd> hi guys
[13:14] <Flexy> jrib: no such option in bios..
[13:14] <nibbler> boscop, backup /home and /etc and reinstall is what i'd recommend
[13:14] <remin> ill try sudp dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[13:14] <boscop> nibbler: reinstall everything??
[13:14] <lilyshu> dhcp is not working..
[13:14] <jacquesdupontd> i have an idea and i would like to know if logically it could be possible to do, i know that for now it doesn't  exist but i think that could be a very good idea with our high bandwith personnal connections
[13:14] <jrib> Flexy: don't know then
[13:15] <remin> and again resolution downed 2 lower..
[13:15] <nibbler> boscop, well.. its a way.... but alternatively reinstall a repository kernel - boot into this commandshell, set up your networking manually (or use /etc/init.d/networking start) and see if you can use aptitude
[13:15] <nibbler> boscop, but if you know how and what to do, reinstall is 20min
[13:16] <Flexy> I'll have to look at the links you gave me. thanks. I'll be back if those are not helping...
[13:16] <jacquesdupontd> ok so if someone is listening to me, i'm thinking about a project to play a game that instead of being installed on your local hdd it would be installed on a fast server with the file needed either on yourcomputer (directx things like that or different things for inux) and also on the server and play them streamly, what would be the connection speed needed for a game like quake 4 for example ?
[13:16] <jacquesdupontd> is someone knowing enought how it works to be able answer me ?
[13:16] <indus> jacquesdupontd: hello
[13:16] <lilyshu> Dr. Willis : dhcp is not working :(
[13:16] <bazhang> jacquesdupontd, lets take this to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[13:16] <jacquesdupontd> yes sure
[13:16] <Dr_Willis> I find the slowest/longest part of doing a install is typing in/setting all the proper mountpoints.. silly tool/gui they use constantly wants to rescan all the drives every time i set one. and i have 6 hard drives...
[13:17] <boscop> nibbler: but then I would have the old kernel :( with all the problems
[13:17] <Dr_Willis> lilyshu:  makes me wonder how theres going to be a proper ip set then. Perhaps more details of the network setup would be handy
[13:17] <indus> jacquesdupontd: quake4 requires atleast 256 kbps to support say 6 players
[13:17] <lilyshu> Dr_Willis : dhcp is not working :(
[13:17] <boscop> nibbler: and it takes alot of time to update from the 8.10 cd I have
[13:17] <Dr_Willis> lilyshu:  set everything statically then. No idea what the ip shoul;d be
[13:17] <smellynosery> Can I _safely_ download and compile the kernel from kernel.org and use it with ubuntu without having any issues?
[13:17] <indus> but i asume thats the second part of the question
[13:18] <nibbler> boscop, then first try to reinstall the repository kernel
[13:18] <jrib> !kernel > smellynosery
[13:18] <laeg> i got the following error when trying to install openssh-server and ssh
[13:18] <bazhang> indus, #ubuntu-offtopic please
[13:18] <laeg> E: openssh-server: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
[13:18] <nibbler> boscop, whta probls do you have with it?
[13:18] <laeg> E: ssh: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[13:18] <laeg> how can i remedy this?
[13:18] <SwedeMike> smellynosery: I've done it and it worked anyway. I'm sure there are things that won't work though.
[13:18] <FloodBot2> laeg: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:18] <indus> kk
[13:18] <Dr_Willis> !kernel | smellynosery
[13:18] <jrib> smellynosery: it's possible I guess, but you probably want to pull from the ubuntu branch
[13:18] <Scrape> Ok... Anyone know how to save multiple gnome sessions in 9.10? I've searched all over the interface and the Internet, to no avail.
[13:19] <boscop> nibbler: screen resolutioncan't be as high as it used to be, I can't play games because it runs very slowly, when I move a window (redraw) the CPU is at 100%
[13:19] <lilyshu> okay, thanks Dr_Willis ;)
[13:20] <boscop> nibbler: with windows, it was much faster
[13:20] <smellynosery> I took 2.6.32 from the ubuntu PPA lark but it didn't fix something that is supposedly fixed in 2.6.32
[13:20] <smellynosery> http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14355
[13:21] <nibbler> boscop, did you install the binary drivers? should not be a kernel thingy
[13:21] <smellynosery> I got my ubuntu kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/daily/2009-12-11/ after getting it from the same place but getting the stable 2.6.32 version
[13:21] <nibbler> boscop, well so/so not a kernel thing, as you need modules, but those are supplied by the vendors and not by the kernel-team so to say
[13:22] <bradpitt> lilyshu : do you really understand? please don't be shy. just ask your question here so people here can see whats your problem and if they knows, they will help you.
[13:22] <boscop> nibbler: I asked in channels for help several times. I don't know which driver I need and how to install it, I have an intel graphics card
[13:22] <FoggyHill> Hi
[13:22] <lilyshu> bradpitt, i get that. i just have to make it all set up.
[13:23] <nibbler> boscop, yep, there is poor support for those. 8.10 was the last ubuntu with proper support - then they moved on with more recent xorg-servers and so support had to drop out
[13:23] <letourdefrance> hmmm updating did not work. I simply cannot connect to wireless since i updated to 9.10. Any suggestions?
[13:23] <kane77> okay, I have problem with my grub.. So I tried to burn the ubuntu-desktop iso on a dvd and boot from there, but it keeps saying that it cannot boot from it, when I burned it on one very old dvd-rw it booted but then halted because of read errors (there are lot of scratches on dvd :) ), then I tried creating bootable usb stick from the iso but it does not boot (says something like "not found linux" and just have "boot:" prompt) any other suggestions how I mig
[13:23] <kane77> ht fix it?
[13:24] <lilyshu> bradpitt : i get that, i just have to make it all set up.
[13:24] <laeg> i received the following two errors when trying to reinstall ssh and openssh-server ( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8479276#post8479276 ) - should they concern me and if so how can i remedy this?
[13:24] <letourdefrance> anyone?
[13:24] <bazhang> kane77, burned to iso how
[13:24] <bazhang> err burned to usb how kane77
[13:24] <Dr_Willis> kane77:  you are burning the cd iso to a dvd  ?
[13:24] <boscop> nibbler: I heard something like that. but it's a pain in the ass sometimes when the system runs very slow and I would like to be able to play games  anymore. I don't want to return to windows just for this :/
[13:25] <always_smile> I got this error message 'Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: w32codecs' when i try to download rmconverter,what shall i do?
[13:25] <kane77> bazhang, tried both k3b and brasero, created usb using the utility in System -> Administration
[13:25] <letourdefrance> hmmm updating did not work. I simply cannot connect to wireless since i updated to 9.10. Any suggestions?
[13:25] <boscop> nibbler: when is support coming back? with the next ubuntu release?
[13:25] <bazhang> kane77, what about unetbootin ? tried that?
[13:26] <kane77> Dr_Willis, yep, it works on dvd-rw, but not on dvd-r (and the rw is full of scratches so it gives read errors later on).. :/
[13:26] <Dr_Willis> boscop:  intel video has been a roller coaster lately it seems. Sadly.  Ive heard a lot of work is gettting done with it in the next release.
[13:26] <kane77> bazhang, I was thinking of that is there any tutorial out there?
[13:26] <Dr_Willis> kane77:  ive never had a cd iso burt to a dvd disk work. I just use unetbootin, or the usb-disk-creator tool to make bootable flash drives  these days
[13:26] <kekehuoshan> Anybody know where to get the "snake" Python module in byobu's config script? detailed:https://answers.launchpad.net/byobu/+question/93436
[13:26] <boscop> Dr_Willis: will the driver be as good as in windows / at the same speed?
[13:27] <nibbler> boscop, it depends on intels driver policy, but i keep reading that they are so/so supportive and so i have hope for it to come back - i have ati on my laptop aswell.
[13:27] <always_smile> 'Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: w32codecs
[13:27] <Dr_Willis> boscop:  How can i tell :)
[13:27] <bazhang> kane77, its pretty self explanatory; download it from the repos, point it to the usb stick and burn the iso
[13:27] <always_smile> Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: w32codecs' this is the error when i try to download rmconverer,what shall i do?"
[13:28] <bazhang> always_smile, you downloaded the .deb file?
[13:28] <kane77> Dr_Willis, if you mean the one that is in System -> Administration I tried and it tries to boot but then hangs with "boot:" prompt :/
[13:28] <Dr_Willis> always_smile:  the w32codecs pack is also at mediubuntu repos
[13:29] <boscop> nibbler: now I get some messages in the window accessible with alt-f6: fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16
[13:29] <always_smile> i tried the package with the table?
[13:29] <bazhang> kane77, then you should give unetbootin a try, it has always worked well here
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> kane77:  yep. some times making a bootable usb flash drive can be a pain. Unetbootin normally works for me. but some times i just get a combonation of flash drive and pc that donmt like each other. Try different flash drives. test them on several pc's
[13:29] <rubbs> anyone know hot to check the changelog on new updates via command line?
[13:29] <rubbs> s/hot/how ^
[13:29] <kane77> bazhang, thanks, I'm trying it now, hopefully I'll be able to run ssh at least so I won't have to run up and down the stairs like idiot :D
[13:29] <nibbler> boscop, so fsck is outputting this weird errormessage?
[13:29] <boscop> nibbler: then "preparing restricted drivers", some other stuff "checking battery state" and the last line: "...done."
[13:30] <nibbler> boscop, so maybe one of the tasks of the init process is not working properly
[13:30] <always_smile> Dr_Willis: I got all codecs relvant to playing cd'dvs's already
[13:31] <Pici> rubbs: I personally have apt-listchanges installed. It will give you the changelogs when you do an apt-get/aptitude upgrade/dist-upgrade.
[13:31] <boscop> nibbler: the 2nd line is: /dev/sda1: clean, 627817/4890624 files, 16525731/19535032 blocks (check in 2 mounts)
[13:31] <nibbler> boscop, that means the fsck terminated successfully
[13:31] <boscop> nibbler: how can I find out which task it is?
[13:32] <laeg> i received the following two errors in synaptic when trying to reinstall ssh and openssh-server ( http://ubuntuforums.org/subscription.php?do=viewsubscription ) how can i remedy this?
[13:32] <jacquesdupontd> indus, big thx :)
[13:32] <indus> jacquesdupontd: for what
[13:33] <jacquesdupontd> for giving me the needed speed but lets talk about that on the offtopic
[13:33] <nibbler> boscop, the tasks are all defined in /etc/init.d and which task is run in which case is in /etc/rcN.d, with N being the runlevel wich you boot to (check default in /etc/inittab, usually i thought - but dont hve this file myself)
[13:35] <rubbs> Pici: thanks, I think that will work
[13:35] <nperry> laeg: We cant view that - its a link your subsribed threads

[13:46] <mahiti> Pici:thanks
[13:46] <kindofabuzz> zengeos: just sped up :)
[13:46] <sipior> ooze: not at all. simply that if the firewall were enabled by default, it would be very hard to come up with a set of default rules that worked for everyone out of the box. a great deal of support would be directed towards people who couldn't figure out why some things weren't working properly.
[13:46] <indus> mahiti: hi
[13:47] <sipior> ooze: best to enable a firewall after you've made sure everything else is working properly.

[13:51] <Psinetic> jrib, kindofabuzz thanks guys, that worked. sudo worked it out for me :)
[13:51] <da65> that is the client and the server
[13:51] <kindofabuzz> Psinetic: since the script points to /usr/local/ you'd have to sudo it

[13:54] <sipior> ooze: firewalls aren't magic shields against all the ills of the internet. without proper configuration, just turning a firewall on is of only moderate use, and the impression that security is no longer an issue because a firewall is in place leads easily to a dangerous complacency.

[13:59] <nperry> roel-: If you've set it update-maager to do it, it will :)
[13:59] <kristian42> I had a mdadm raid-1 array called /dev/md1 that seems to have dissolved into an individually mountable disk and another linux_raid_member. Anyone heard of this ?
[13:59] <FoggyHill> llutz: mysqladmin -uroot -p
[13:59] <Kartagis> roel-, did you set up a crontab?
[13:59] <FoggyHill> that worked i think
[14:00] <letourdefrance> BlouBlou: it seems i already have the network-manager packet
[14:00] <roel-> let's see
[14:00] <always_smile> BlouBlou: i was saying most avi files play without voice
[14:01] <FoggyHill> or wait no it didn't llutz
[14:01] <BlouBlou> always_smile: hace you tried installing codecs or ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[14:01] <BlouBlou> have*
[14:01] <Dr_Willis> avi files can be of any of a varity of codecs for audio and video. If the proper codecs are not isntalled.. then you get no sound.
[14:01] <rubbs> !codecs | always_smile
[14:01] <always_smile> yes i have BlouBlou
[14:01] <llutz> FoggyHill: then your mysql doesn't run or the password is wrong
[14:02] <boscop> nibbler: I don't have the /etc/inittab fle. but it seems I can login with one of the other older kernels. should I try to recompile kernel 2.6.32? what should I do diffrent this time?
[14:02] <llutz> FoggyHill:  try "mysqladmin -uroot -pSDxjIER processlist"
[14:02] <Dr_Willis> always_smile:  you can try playing the file via the command line with vlc or mplayer.  'mplayer whatever.avi' and it may tell you what codecs its trying to use and whats missing.
[14:02] <always_smile> when i try to get mpconverter,it gives the error no satisfable depdndancies
[14:02] <da65> laeg:  purge ssh and try again?
[14:02] <nibbler> boscop, no idea sorry. but the homebaked kernel wont solve your graphik problems, so...
[14:02] <letourdefrance> BlouBlou: The network does not seem to work even though i have the network-manager installed. What might i do then?
[14:02] <laeg> da65: i did, same error
[14:03] <roel-> BlouBlou: update manager is already configured to check daily
[14:03] <roel-> but it doesn't
[14:03] <crawler> hello.  how can i turn off the login bongos sound?  i disabled system sounds, but the bongos are being slapped as i log in.
[14:03] <reign2> does anyone else get some wierd text corruption thing when they "telinit 3" from the recovery console?
[14:03] <FoggyHill> llutz: mysqladmin -uroot -pSDxjIER is definitely not working: http://pastie.org/738885
[14:03] <laeg> nperry: i completed what you asked, only 3/4 of the found files had the text i needed to edit, i edited it then did your purge command - i've tried reinstalling using synaptic, same error
[14:03] <boscop> nibbler: should I recompile kernel 2.6.31-16-generic?
[14:03] <llutz> FoggyHill:  try "mysqladmin -uroot -pSDxjIER processlist"
[14:03] <epinky> FoggyHill: what do you want to do? set password or connect?
[14:03] <Dr_Willis> reign2:  why are you even trying to use telinit?
[14:03] <smellynosery> letourdefrance: Wifi or 3G?
[14:03] <letourdefrance> anyone??
[14:03] <llutz> FoggyHill: you need adding an action to mysqladmin
[14:04] <nibbler> boscop, no idea sorry. but the homebaked kernel wont solve your graphik problems, so... why not stick with the distri-kernels?
[14:04] <BlouBlou> roel-: yes, it do, but with new check system, recommended updates only will notified one day per week.  -  However, security's, will be notified daily
[14:04] <reign2> well if I start in the recovery console I sometimes want to change runlevel to 3 to install a driver or what have you
[14:04] <nibbler> boscop, if you want, look for others distributios, maybe there is some who support ati better
[14:04] <da65> FoggyHill: thnaks for the password :)
[14:04] <BlouBlou> roel-: you can use old notification sytem, if you wanna
[14:04] <FoggyHill> nevermind llutz i think its working
[14:04] <roel-> BlouBlou: this worked fine until i upgraded to the newest ubuntu a few weeks ago
[14:05] <FoggyHill> mysql -uroot -p did the trick it seems
[14:05] <nibbler> da65, is his mysql port open tothe inet :p
[14:05] <FoggyHill> thanks again
[14:05] <da65> hack hack lol
[14:05] <llutz> FoggyHill: change password
[14:05] <nperry> laeg Can you paste the install error please?
[14:05] <da65> lol
[14:05] <nibbler> FoggyHill, FAST!
[14:05] <nperry> laeg: in the support tracker
[14:05] <reign2> Dr_Willis: is there something wrong with doing that?
[14:05] <Epsiloneus> hello, is there a channel for command line help or can I ask in this one?
[14:05] <laeg> nperry: i did, it's the same one
[14:05] <austlaw> I can't seem to increase my resolution, the max listed is horribly low
[14:06] <nibbler> Epsiloneus, this here is fine
[14:06] <boscop> nibbler: I would like to. but I need certain apps to run on them. also, most other distros don't have something like the NetworkManager etc
[14:06] <laeg> nperry: after that error it tells me all tasks were not complete, i click on details and get more info but when i try to ctrl+c copy it it says it will abort the process
[14:06] <BlouBlou> roel-: type this: gconftool -s --type bool /apps/update-notifier/auto_launch false
[14:06] <nibbler> boscop, i like ubuntu, too. but i bought nvidia for my desktop, as this is way better supported, it seems
[14:06] <Dr_Willis> reign2:  ubuntu dosent use runlevels like many disrtos do. so i dont see the point in  uising tha tcommand
[14:07] <CHESLYN> hi everyone
[14:07] <da65> :)
[14:07] <Pici> !runlevels  | reign2
[14:07] <nibbler> !upstart
[14:07] <Epsiloneus> nibbler: ok, thanks.  I am wondering about commandline multitasking, for example using irc and mp3 player, being able to switch between them while no stopping either, and without losing the commandline itself for doing other things.
[14:07] <CHESLYN> anyone how can i reinstall my internet
[14:07] <crawler> how do i shut off the slapping of the bongos @ login screen?
[14:07] <nibbler> Epsiloneus, screen might be your friend
[14:07] <reign2> ubotto: I see.
[14:08] <llutz> Epsiloneus: use screen
[14:08] <BlouBlou> CHESLYN: specify more please
[14:08] <da65> CHESLYN:  how you mean?
[14:08] <Epsiloneus> ok, I will check that out, thank you
[14:08] <austlaw> any ideas to fix resolution?
[14:08] <da65> should just work
[14:08] <reign2> ubotto: runlevels 2,3,4,5 are equal to 1?
[14:08] <Dr_Willis> reign2:  1 and 6 are special
[14:09] <Pici> reign2: ubottu is a bot. 2 = 3 = 4 = 5
[14:09] <Dr_Willis> reign2:  the rest are identical
[14:09] <CHESLYN> if i enter a site it says 'Access Denied' whats wrong
[14:09] <da65> what site?
[14:09] <epinky> reign2: 0 is shutdown
[14:09] <Dr_Willis> CHESLYN:  so google.com says access denied?
[14:09] <llutz> crawler: delete /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/desktop-login.ogg
[14:09] <mrqismrx> could anyone recommend any good sites to read about news of ubuntu and new apps and updates for apps and so on?
[14:09] <crawler> llutz: thanks i will try that.  much appreciated :-)
[14:09] <Dr_Willis> been so long since i messed with runlevels...
[14:10] <boscop> nibbler: I have 2 Ghz cpu and 1 GB ram (and another 2 GB swap file). this should be enough for playing games, shouldn't it? at least on windows it's sufficient
[14:10] <da65> ubuntu.com is a good one
[14:10] <xover> are the vmware display drivers for ubuntu compiled directly into the kernel?
[14:10] <reign2> Dr_Willis: Ok. Now will I still have to symlink my init.d scripts in rc2,rc3,rc4,rc5?
[14:10] <CHESLYN> Dr_Willis: even that
[14:11] <Dr_Willis> reign2:  the use of rc2/3/4/ and the init.d system is slowly getting phased out.  runlevel '2' is the ubuntu default i belive.
[14:11] <falconheart> I was wondering if anyone has a spare moment to help me with something. I have a program that starts when my computer boots up and I'd like to stop that behavior.. Only start it when I want to use it. I'm very new to Ubuntu. I'm on Hardy 64 bit, if that makes any difference.
[14:11] <mrqismrx> When I put my computer in hibernate mode and try to wake it. It shows the screen saver and then freezes when a push a button and if I like push ESQ then the screen saver starts moving again but no login screen. Only if I put out the power from my laptop the login appear. What should I do?
[14:12] <epinky> falconheart: use rcconf
[14:12] <reign2> Dr_Willis: Ok but if I drop to console, my runlevel is 1 correct?
[14:12] <Dr_Willis> falconheart:  what program
[14:12] <Dr_Willis> reign2:  not sure.. all you have to do is stop the gdm service.. and you are at the console.
[14:12] <Dr_Willis> reign2:  so you may not be in runlevel 1
[14:13] <alankila> reign2: runlevel is changed only if you ask it to change.
[14:13] <coofish> can anyone kindly provide a ten-minites proxy for me?I need download a file blocked in china
[14:13] <crawler> falconheart: you can usually disable these things using gnome-session-properties
[14:14] <reign2> Dr_Willis: Unfortunately the init script for unmounting cifs shares is called at the wrong time. hence stopping gdm hangs
[14:14] <ActionParsnip> !ot | coofish
[14:14] <crawler> located in System>Preferences>Startup Applications
[14:14] <coofish> anybody?SOS!
[14:14] <falconheart> yeah I checked its not listed there.. I'm thinking I'll have to get my hands dirty with this one.
[14:14] <reign2> Dr_Willis: but if I symlink /etc/init.d/umountnfs.sh to /etc/rc1.d/K#umountnfs.sh; everything works
[14:14] <Dr_Willis> falconheart:  what program?
[14:14] <crawler> falconheart: what program?
[14:15] <crawler> lol
[14:15] <reign2> if I stop gdm
[14:15] <falconheart> the Tor service
[14:15] <da65> geez, mininova being closed is sad eh!
[14:15] <falconheart> after installing it seems to start whenever my computer does
[14:15] <livingdaylight> Ja Hallo; ich haette gerne Hilfe... unzwar: I would like to know how i can print 'forms' simply black in linux. I have Epson Stylus 425 printer and when i go to properties and change RGB to greyscale nothing happens... i get entire 'white' sheet... how to simply print forms in black in 20 seconds that otherwise take 2 minutes to get every shade of color and waste ink? Please?
[14:15] <Dr_Willis> reign2:  you could just call it from /etc/rc.local if you wanted..   but i dont know what you are really doing.. In  the next release there may not be any rc#.d stuff. so good luck
[14:15] <coofish> hehe,Ubuntu is not for ubuntu itself,ubuntu is comsuming resource owned by whole mankind
[14:16] <coofish> hahaha
[14:16] <Dr_Willis> !info tor
[14:16] <nperry> laeg: Answered
[14:16] <falconheart> I'm not on karmic, I'm on hardy.
[14:16] <Dr_Willis> falconheart:  how did you install tor? if it added a item to the rc.#  dirs. You ned to use a proper tool to remove the entry
[14:16] <coofish> I NEED  proxy,TOR is blocked too,in china
[14:16] <Dr_Willis> !info tor  hardy
[14:16] <reign2> Dr_Willis: My issue is that ubuntu shuts the network down before unmounting cifs shares; so shutdown and reboot and changing runlevels hangs at a certain point
[14:17] <ActionParsnip> coofish: its offtopic here
[14:17] <falconheart> I added the repo for tor, installed via synaptic
[14:17] <Dr_Willis> reign2:  i noticed that issue once ages ago.. but not seen it in 9.10
[14:17] <Pici> coofish: This is the Ubuntu support channel, we cannot help you find a proxy here.
[14:17] <laeg> nperry: ty look now
[14:17] <reign2> Dr_Willis: to remedy the issue I rearranged the init scripts in the respective runlevel dirs so that cifs are umounted earlier
[14:17] <crawler> falconheart: it's been a while since i've used tor, but me thinks Viddalia can control the tor service
[14:17] <Dr_Willis> falconheart:  then remove tor if you dont want it - via the package manager. or use a tool like 'bum' tomanage what services get started at boot.
[14:18] <reign2> Dr_Willis: And I'm just wondering why I need to do it for rc1 in order for stopping gdm tow rok
[14:18] <laeg> nperry: i have to run to work but i will try it first thing tomorrow and let you know on the post if it worked or not okay? ty for your time
[14:18] <coofish> can anyone setup a  proxy service for a  while?I can help u do it!
[14:18] <falconheart> right, vidalia is installed also. and it does indeed control the service but that's how I found out it was starting when my computer does. Vidalia was giving me errors and not starting tor.. I thought it was a vidalia issue, until I tried to start tor via the commandline and found out it was already running.
[14:18] <nperry> laeg: Not a problem :)
[14:18] <laeg> :)
[14:19] <reign2> Dr_Willis: considering someone just mentioned that simply stopping gdm doesnt change runlevels
[14:19] <Dr_Willis> reign2:  gdm in 9.10 is now handled by upstart. theres a single upstart 'service' that checks/launches allthe stuff in the rc## dirs. so predicting the order things happen  in. May be a bit harder to do now
[14:19] <Dr_Willis> reign2:  gdm is just a service..  same as any other service.  Ive not had to us3e runlevels in ubuntu in err.. ever that i cen reccall.
[14:19] <coofish> tor+ vidalia is not a good solution as a proxy agent!
[14:19] <livingdaylight> Ja Hallo; ich haette gerne Hilfe... unzwar: I would like to know how i can print 'forms' simply black in linux.

Please?
[14:20] <coofish> rubbish,slggy,and easy to be blocked
[14:20] <reign2> Dr_Willis: hmm than it is very strange why adding a umount script in rc1.d solves my problem of gdm hanging
[14:20] <falconheart> what's a better solution coofish? IMHO its better than spending hours looking for working proxies. lol
[14:21] <coofish> lol
[14:21] <austlaw> maximum resolution listed is 640x480, how do I fix this?
[14:21] <Dr_Willis> reign2:    ive never had gdm hang while trying to stop it. I cant see why  nfs/samba/cifs would affect GDM at all
[14:21] <FoggyHill> Starting nginx: 2009/12/11 14:20:31 [emerg] 6628#0: getpwnam("www") failed in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:4
[14:21] <FoggyHill> ubuntu doesn't use www?
[14:21] <FoggyHill> i mean, shouldn't the nginx package have added www during install?
[14:21] <boscop> nibbler: ok, I logged in with 2.6.28-16-generic. how do I upgrade the kernel to 2.6.31-16-generic now?
[14:21] <coofish> I can setup a server for u all,if you wanna visit some sites blocked ur IP
[14:21] <Dr_Willis> FoggyHill:  theres several www servers..
[14:22] <reign2> Dr_Willis: I couldnt see why either. but stopping gdm definately does not drop me to console unless that script is there
[14:22] <bazhang> !ot | coofish
[14:22] <FoggyHill> (nginx is a new superfast russian webserver, very popular in the webdevelopment community)
[14:22] <crawler> falconheart: try Dr_Willis' solution and install bum
[14:22] <falconheart> bum? ok.. I didnt see that message I must've looked away for a moment
[14:22] <Dr_Willis> reign2:  err.. i go to the console.. then do 'sudo service gdm stop' normally
[14:22] <Dr_Willis> reign2:  so im allready at a console :)
[14:22] <coofish> bazhang?!!!!!
[14:22] <coofish> whats' up
[14:23] <bazhang> coofish, that is not on topic for ubuntu support. please desist and take chat elsewhere
[14:23] <crawler> falconheart: yea, once installed access it from System>Administration>Boot-UpManager
[14:23] <reign2> Dr_Willis: well yeah but I need to stop gdm, not get to a console
[14:23] <falconheart> ok installing now.. thanks for the suggestions by the way :)
[14:24] <coofish> I know,I have looked at many channel,end in stay her...
[14:24] <livingdaylight> can ehlping me with printger poperties settings?
[14:24] <coofish> hahah
[14:24] <reign2> is there some kind of way to adjust the order scripts and services are run by upstart?
[14:24] <livingdaylight> what is RGB and greyscale etc etc
[14:24] <KipIngram> I'm interested in running karmic from RAM.  So far this looks the most promising: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=707230.  Anyone out there have any experience trying this?
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> coofish: head to #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:24] <livingdaylight> i want just print plack all forms, please?
[14:25] <KipIngram> I want to do this after getting the GMA 500 drivers up and going.
[14:25] <falconheart> PERFECT this is what I was looking for! thanks! lol I almost found it on my own. installed start-up manager via synaptic hoping it would be this. :D
[14:25] <crawler> falconheart: you're welcome, by the way, in bum, tor is listed as "anonymizing  overlay network for TCP"
[14:25] <coofish>  8-)  :|
[14:25] <KipIngram> join #eeepc
[14:26] <falconheart> I see that. oh and by the way.. rsync starts when my comp does also.. do I need it for anything by default..? cause i never use it..
[14:27] <RJRDon> is there a package for WS_Security that I can apt-get install?
[14:27] <RJRDon> for php?
[14:27] <Fabian> i bet there is
[14:27] <Fabian> try apt-get install ws-sercurity if it  doesnt work unix will give u alternatives
[14:27] <perlsyntax> how to submit your module for perl for ubuntu?
[14:27] <reign2> Dr_Willis: I just a read up a bit on upstart, and it apparently still uses the order in rc.# dirs; for now at least. evidently upstart is not fully implemented?
[14:28] <crawler> falconheart: i'd be careful with those services... :-)
[14:28] <crawler> falconheart: but breaking stuff is half the fun, eh?
[14:28] <falconheart> oh I am I'm only turning off stuff I know I don't need :D
[14:28] <perlsyntax> ?
[14:28] <falconheart> lol yeah I've reinstalled linux about 3 times now due to my uh.. "tinkering" ;)
[14:28] <crawler> heh
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> falconheart: good way to learn
[14:29] <crawler> ActionParsnip: falconheart: absoluely 100% agree xD
[14:29] <falconheart> yeah I "broke" and "fixed" my very first computer too. and after that everyone came to me for advice :p
[14:29] <boomernang> Hi - how can I tell grub2 to use a menu instead of automatically loading the first option?
[14:29] <zoug> how can i "grep" through bunch of debs in a directory so that i can install only one app and its dependencies? otherwise i have to install all the dependencies manually,which is annoying!
[14:29] <Fabian> turn grub time to 0
[14:29] <falconheart> so glad I switched to linux. but lots to learn still. thanks for all the help!
[14:29] <crawler> falconheart: good luck
[14:29] <wushu_> bbreaking stuff? you think breaking stuff is stopping something from booting?
[14:29] <zengeos> same here falcon
[14:30] <jrib> zoug: why aren't you just using apt?
[14:30] <Psix> hello O_o
[14:30] <coofish> boomernang: press E while booting into  grub!
[14:30] <coofish> LOL
[14:30] <zoug> jrib: well, i have this backup. and i need specific apps to install.
[14:30] <Psix> íåóæåëè âñå ëèíóêñîèëû? À ãäå êîìíàòà âèíäîóçÿòíèêîâ?
[14:30] <bazhang> !ru | Psix
[14:30] <GodFazha> i agree Psix
[14:30] <boomernang> coofish?
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> zoug: use: sudo dpkg -i deb     you will get told the deps it needs
[14:30] <coofish> ubuntu users is silly really~~
[14:31] <jrib> zoug: ok, but that doesn't answer my question afaict
[14:31] <boomernang> Fabian, do you mean grub timeout? in /etc/default/grub
[14:31] <zoug> ActionParsnip: wont that be installing all the debs in the current dir?
[14:31] <boomernang> coofish, you have no idea
[14:31] <Psix> bazhang, Thanks
[14:31] <bazhang> coofish, please stop
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> zoug: no, you specify te deb you want
[14:31] <zoug> jrib: how about when i dont have internet?
[14:32] <coofish> press e,u can input any kernel to boot from,fool~~~~~~
[14:32] <zoug> ActionParsnip: okay, i can try that..
[14:32] <jrib> zoug: create a local apt repository I guess
[14:32] <zoug> jrib: how do i do that?
[14:32] <boomernang> coofish, i am using grub2 you crazy maniac. not grub 0.97
[14:32] <zoug> jrib: add a new sourse u mean?
[14:33] <coofish> so change back to .97,keep off from any beta sw
[14:33] <jrib> zoug: sure, but you need to run some commands first.  Just google "local apt repository", I'm sure you'll get plenty of documentation
[14:33] <Hans_Henrik> any1 know the switch for "gnu make" to ignore errors and continue?
[14:33] <boomernang> coofish, beta is installed by default you crazy maniac - i told you, you have no idea
[14:34] <coofish> lol,do you have an idea?if so,how could spent ur time here
[14:34] <zoug> jrib: thanks!
[14:34] <jrib> !offline | zoug, as well:
[14:35] <zoug> jrib: okay..
[14:35] <letourdefrance> ohh well... Unfortunately Linux still seems to be rather useless... I wonder if it will ever actually be usable..I hope so...anyway...back to a more productive environment
[14:36] <michael_campbell> *lol*
[14:36] <wushu_> haha
[14:36] <michael_campbell> buhbye now.
[14:36] <llutz> letourdefrance: take your fish and go, troll
[14:36] <ryan\n> loooooool
[14:36] <wushu_> letourdefrance, the mistake you make is you think someone cares
[14:36] <Dr_Willis> letourdefrance:  demand a refund
[14:36] <piojunbabia> zoug: i installed netBeans instead of Eclipse... successful
[14:36] <zengeos> r5eally letour?  I've been thinking that of Windows for years now :)  What environment is more productive for you?
[14:36] <wushu_> you;re just funny xD
[14:37] <zoug> piojunbabia: ah, cool.
[14:37] <michael_campbell> letourdefrance, so what you're saying is, you surrender?
[14:37] <ikonia> enougyh guys
[14:37] <ikonia> enough even
[14:37] <jrib> letourdefrance: if you want to help make it better, you need to file bugs when you encounter them.  Your comments here aren't going to help anyone
[14:37] <Dr_Willis> :)
[14:37] <coofish> who give some fish to me  and i would leave right now
[14:37] <coofish> haha
[14:37] <ActionParsnip> letourdefrance: ask google what OS they use, you may be suprised. oh well
[14:37] <zoug> ActionParsnip: okay, i tried that but gives dependency problems
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> zoug: then install those first, or if you apt-get archive is empty you can run: sudo apt-get -f install
[14:38] <wushu_> whats the difference betweren apt get and aptitude
[14:39] <bazhang> coofish, remain on topic or you will be removed.  chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:39] <llutz> wushu_: different frontends to apt
[14:39] <coofish>  ;)
[14:39] <piojunbabia> wushu_: good question
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> letourdefrance: or panasonic, or the US army
[14:39] <zoug> ActionParsnip: well, that was the problem. i have to manually select all the dependencies and install them
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> letourdefrance: http://www.aaxnet.com/design/linux2.html those companys can't be wrong
[14:39] <SeekerNL> is there a thai support channel?
[14:39] <wushu_> ActionParsnip,stop treying to change his mind you just look foolish
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> zoug: apt-get -f install will satisfy them
[14:39] <bazhang> #ubuntu-th SeekerNL
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> wushu_: i do that on a daily basis ;)
[14:40] <piojunbabia> !aptitude
[14:40] <michael_campbell> Foolish is what I do best.  Next up, trying to convince vi users to use emacs.  And emacs users to use vi.
[14:40] <wushu_> haha okay :>
[14:40] <zengeos> <--prefers his 15 minute install/upgrade for Linux over the 3-4 hour *upgrade* from Vista to 7
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> wushu_: just making a point, he can use whatever OS s/he pleases, just pointing out the flaw in the statement
[14:41] <Pici> !offtopic
[14:41] <zengeos> Of course, I am old school GEOS person heh
[14:41] <wushu_> i jsut think that ignoring someone that says something stupid is better

[14:42] <Dr_Willis> wushu_:  wheres the fun in that?
[14:43] <wushu_> well you just laugh at him
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> wushu_: if you can crus them with hard facts its much more satisfying
[14:43] <wushu_> for some reason people get the notion they should recruit people
[14:43] <Dr_Willis> wushu_:  i tend to chuckle a lot at my windows using friends at work.. as i salvage their vacation pics and stuff from their virus/malware trashed windows systems.. :) then charge them $20
[14:43] <bazhang> lets get back on topic please
[14:43] <wushu_> they wont feel crushed
[14:44] <wushu_> bazhang, nobody asked something
[14:44] <bazhang> wushu_, doesn't matter, this is support only

[14:49] <Stanley> bishop: hi
[14:49] <wack479> I am currently on intrepid, and i see in the repo that there is an update in the kernel from 2.6.27-7, which is currently on the system to <IP_ADDRESS>.20. I have never done a kernel update before and was wondering if there was any suggestions on things to do before doing the update/upgrade
[14:49] <velcroshooz> therekku: conky is the time, stats etc and avant window navigator or AWN for the toolbar
[14:50] <bishop> did upgrade...works well so far
[14:50] <therekku> Cheers Velcroshooz, any ideas on how to make Compiz "Non Cube-ish"? but instead like a circle ( Just like in that picture?  )
[14:50] <bradpitt> therekku : navigate to ccsm, in effects tick the ' cube reflection and deformation '
[14:50] <therekku> Alright
[14:50] <velcroshooz> therekku: bradpitt just told you ;) its a setting in ccsm
[14:51] <Dr_Willis> always_smile:  ask your questions in the channel if you want answers - not pming me..  Im here then gone for hours at a time
[14:51] <napsy> Hello. Is there a telnet server for Linux?
[14:51] <Dr_Willis> always_smile:  use the package manager tools to install the software mentioned
[14:51] <Black_Phantom> when is the death date of 8.04 LTS ?
[14:52] <Dr_Willis> napsy:  it would be 'best' to use ssh whenever possible.
[14:52] <BlouBlou> !telnet | napsy
[14:52] <Dr_Willis> !lts | BlouBlou
[14:52] <BlouBlou> Dr_Willis: errr... what?
[14:52] <AceKing> Anyone know how to make the printer shared from my Karmic PC visible to a vista PC?
[14:53] <Dr_Willis> BlouBlou:  the version # is the date. so yrs for 8.10 = 8+5
[14:53] <BlouBlou> Dr_Willis: I didn't ask it (I am using 9.10)
[14:53] <Dr_Willis> BlouBlou:  but those will be security updates only I think. (i rarely need the LTS features)
[14:53] <David-T> Dr_Willis: i think you want to be telling Black_Phantom :)
[14:53] <therekku> Velcroshooz: Synaptic -> "Conky" And i get multiple choices ( Conky-all Condy Std Conky Cli And Conky, which one should i download? )
[14:53] <Dr_Willis> BlouBlou:  blame tabv colm,pletion :)
[14:53] <Rajasun> therekku: http://linuxeranggingmammiri.blogspot.com/2009/11/how-to-install-compiz-on-ubuntu-910.html also see the clips on Compiz at http://www.linuxhaxor.net/
[14:53] <BlouBlou> Dr_Willis: no problem :-P
[14:54] <Dr_Willis> I need to write up a weechat script that completes to the last speaking persion firsst in the list
[14:54] <velcroshooz> therekku: i would take conky-all it comes with some scripts and all for some cool setups
[14:54] <bishop> bbak...
[14:55] <cramop> hi, where can I see the list of security updated packages?
[14:55] <cramop> synaptic does not have it
[14:55] <boscop> ubuntu doesn`t recognize my trackpad anymore. why?
[14:56] <janaus> hi i cant seem to boot a karmic install from the hard drive... boots ok from cd via boot from first hard disk option... any suggestions on how to fix ??
[14:56] <napsy> Anyone experienced with inetutils-telnetd?
[14:57] <zoug> janaus: any recent changes you made?
[14:57] <epinky> !anyone | napsy
[14:57] <janaus> zoug, fresh install from cd
[14:58] <janaus> zoug i get grub error 22's now :(
[14:58] <zoug> janaus: were you messing with grub?
[14:58] <janaus> zoug no, its a fresh install from karmic cd, won't start up
[14:59] <napsy> I've installed inetutils-telentd but now I don't know how to run the telnet server. Any ideas?
[15:00] <Dr_Willis> napsy:  in theory - it should set itself up and allready be started
[15:00] <shriekout> !en
[15:00] <zoug> janaus: you had windows before?
[15:00] <janaus> zoug: think the drive had a win7 install ... not sure hasnt been used for a few months
[15:00] <boomernang> Hi, I had windows installed on a disk in this computer(/dev/sdb), and installed ubuntu 9.10 on a second disk (/dev/sda). Installed fine but grub couldnt find windows. So i manually put in a menu entry inside /boot/grub/grub.cfg. Restart - when i open up grub and try boot windows, it says, NTLDR IS MISSING - how is that even possible? From what I remember all i need to do is do a recovery, but wont that install another boot loader or something, re
[15:00] <boomernang> moving grub?
[15:00] <napsy> Dr_Willis: it isn't because if I try to connect to localhost the connection gets refsed
[15:01] <zoug> janaus: error 22: This error is returned if a partition is requested in the device part of a device- or full file name which isn't on the selected disk.
[15:01] <kjelle> Hi, can i somehow get a list of how much stack each process uses?
[15:01] <zoug> janaus: so, someone messed up with partitions
[15:01] <epinky> napsy: /etc/init.d/inetutils-inetd start
[15:01] <ikonia> how much stack ?
[15:01] <kjelle> yes
[15:01] <gdiz> I have a question for you all.  There is a program that I am trying to get running under python 2.4 instead of 2.6.  Unless this means something else, I am getting deprecation errors.  Do you guys know how to run something under 2.4 instead of 2.6?
[15:01] <epinky> napsy: sudo /etc/init.d/inetutils-inetd start
[15:01] <ikonia> kjelle: what do you mean by stack ?
[15:01] <janaus> zoug: its just a fresh install from cd :(
[15:01] <always_smile> hello everyone,what's the command to play CHM files,thanks
[15:01] <kjelle> ikonia: well, how much stack memory a given process uses.
[15:02] <zoug> janaus: can you fdisk -l from a live cd?
[15:02] <ikonia> kjelle: ps aux
[15:02] <napsy> epinky: I get " * Not starting internet superserver: no services enabled"
[15:02] <zoug> janaus: need to know your partition structure
[15:02] <isolat3dsh33p> boomernang: has you check using fdisk?
[15:02] <kjelle> ikonia: no, it displays the combined usage of code, data and stack
[15:02] <kjelle> ikonia: i need to only know the stack :)
[15:02] <janaus> zoug: i have booted the install via the boot from first hard disk option on the install cd....
[15:03] <ikonia> kjelle: what are you talking about "stack"
[15:03] <kjelle> ikonia: do you know what the stack is?
[15:03] <epinky> napsy: is telnet installed? sudo apt-get install telnetd
[15:03] <ikonia> kjelle: it depends in what sense
[15:03] <kjelle> ikonia: memory
[15:03] <zoug> janaus: okay..so you are currently on the karmic that has installed. but you dont get a grub. is this right?
[15:03] <janaus> zoug :    Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
[15:03] <janaus> /dev/sda1   *           1        4863    39062016   83  Linux

[15:03] <Aciid> doesn't gdm-2.2 work in karmic at all?
[15:03] <always_smile> what's the command to get CHM ,thanks
[15:03] <janaus> /dev/sda3           12749       77826   522728448    7  HPFS/NTFS
[15:03] <FloodBot2> janaus: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:03] <napsy> epinky: it wasn't and I installed it but still get connection refused with "telnet"
[15:03] <neerose> helo
[15:04] <janaus> zoug: im on the karmic... but it cant boot itself
[15:04] <ikonia> kjelle: I'm not sure what you're referencing as a memeory "stack"
[15:04] <kjelle> ikonia: stack memory allocation
[15:04] <boomernang> isolat3dsh33p, what am i checking for? in fdisk?
[15:04] <Dr_Willis> always_smile:  theres several 'chm' viewers in the package manager listing. gnochm i think is one.
[15:04] <kjelle> ikonia: then you dont know what it is :)
[15:04] <Dr_Willis> !info gnochm
[15:04] <neerose> can any one help me with my web cam problem
[15:04] <ikonia> kjelle: ah ha http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack-based_memory_allocation
[15:04] <epinky> napsy: try "sudo /etc/init.d/inetd restart"
[15:04] <Dr_Willis> always_smile:  so 'sudo apt-get install gnochm' will install that one
[15:04] <kjelle> ikonia: wikipedia doesnt make you an expert.
[15:04] <ikonia> so how much memory each thread is using - you'd have to truss the process for that
[15:04] <Aciid> !gdm
[15:04] <isolat3dsh33p> boomernang: location for your windows :/
[15:04] <janaus> zoug: http://paste.ubuntu.com/339258/
[15:05] <ikonia> kjelle: I didn't say it did make me an expert
[15:05] <zoug> janaus: okay, so a sudo grub
[15:05] <kjelle> So, anyone know of a tool that can display stack usage of processes/threads in ubuntu? so i dont have to code it..
[15:05] <boomernang> isolat3dsh33p, fdisk sees it fine on /dev/sdb
[15:05] <kjelle> ikonia: im sorry.
[15:05] <zoug> janaus: sorry, do this: sudo grub
[15:05] <ikonia> kjelle: you should be able to see that with truss, it will show you the allocations of each thread in the proces
[15:05] <kjelle> ikonia: truss? okey, lemme try
[15:05] <yeoman>  hi folks...will any1 suggest me a good antivirus scan software for 9.10...need to remov viruses from flashdrives...
[15:05] <janaus> zoug: cmd not found
[15:05] <erUSUL_> !av
[15:05] <ikonia> kjelle: not %100 if it's what you are looking for, but I think it should give you the info you want
[15:05] <laeg> nperry: launchpad
[15:05] <kjelle> ikonia: okey, thanks
[15:06] <Aciid> Doesn't gdm-2.2 work in karmic at all?
[15:06] <zoug> janaus: sudo apt-get install grub2
[15:06] <sipior> kjelle: run your program under gdb, and set have it print out the stack pointer at the desired interval
[15:06] <stickboy> i'm transferring a presentation i have to give in a few minutes to my usb drive but the transfer status window never showed up. it's a lot of fairly big files and i want to make sure i get them all without corruption. is there a command that will tell me of any transfers taking place?
[15:06] <janaus> zoug: ive done that already ...one sec
[15:06] <always_smile> thanks Dr_Willis,how can i view access and excel presentation with ubuntu?
[15:06] <Dr_Willis> yeoman:  i use clamav for that normally
[15:06] <boomernang> isolat3dsh33p, what will happen if i "repair" ntldr on /dev/sdb.. Does grub get pwned even when it is on /dev/sda?
[15:06] <janaus> zoug: yes ... says grub2 is already newest version
[15:07] <Dr_Willis> always_smile:  try loading them into openoffice
[15:07] <kjelle> ikonia: seems truss is solaris, and strace/dtrace on ubuntu. if it is strace, my limited experience with that is that you can use it on one (1) process,and not the entire list.
[15:07] <kjelle> sipior: that i can do.
[15:07] <napsy> epinky: the telnet service is listening butn can't connect locally. Any ideas?
[15:07] <zoug> janaus: try for sudo grub2
[15:07] <Dr_Willis> napsy:  check the service logs/auth logs perhaps
[15:07] <ikonia> kjelle: yes, you'd have to attatch to each process, wouldn't be able to do it for everthing, (strace works on linux yes)
[15:07] <janaus> zoug: also cmd not found
[15:07] <zoug> janaus: weird.
[15:08] <epinky> napsy: telnet is up right? netstat -an | grep :23
[15:08] <napsy> epinky: yes
[15:08] <zoug> janaus: you have grub-pc installed?
[15:08] <always_smile> Dr_Willis: the openoffice doesn't have something similar to access though,does it?
[15:08] <isolat3dsh33p> boomernang: I'm not sure about that.
[15:08] <kjelle> sipior ikonia: thank you both for input.
[15:08] <yeoman> thanks dr willis..how to download tat authentic software
[15:08] <Dr_Willis> always_smile:  i never use openoffice
[15:09] <Dr_Willis> yeoman:  its in the repos.. but you may want to get the latest from the clamav homepage
[15:09] <janaus> zoug: hmmm dont think so
[15:09] <zoug> janaus: well, basically you dont have grub and you need to find a way to install it..
[15:09] <Dr_Willis> !info clamav
[15:09] <always_smile> microsoft office word works well here but not access files,i can't open them here

[15:10] <always_smile> anyone knows how to open microsoft office access with ubuntu 9.10
[15:10] <boscop> ubuntu doesn`t recognize my trackpad anymore. why?
[15:10] <isolat3dsh33p> boomernang: Backup first :D
[15:10] <zoug> janaus: grub2 is 1.97 beta, grub is 0.97
[15:11] <janaus> zoug: so what packages should i remove... and which package should i try to reisntall?
[15:11] <Pseudo> When I run ifconfig, it only shows me "lo", but when I type in ifconfig -a, it shows me "lo" and "eth2"...... I'm trying to make it use eth2 for internet but I have no idea how.
[15:11] <zoug> janaus: reload your synaptic, and install grub-pc _only_. this will install grub2.
[15:11] <always_smile> does anybody have an idea how to open M access files with ubuntu,thank you
[15:12] <Dr_Willis> always_smile:  try   double clicking on it and see if OpenOffice Opens it.

[15:12] <always_smile> it doesn't Dr_Willis

[15:17] <always_smile> anyone got an idea how to open access files with ubuntu,thank you
[15:18] <TopKatz> maybe I need to unistall the driver, restart, update, restart, install drivers?  How do peopel handle raid and updateing ?

[15:20] <zoug> janaus: okay, thats it.
[15:20] <BlouBlou> z3r0: it can run alone

[15:31] <Mewses> Question: I've been trying to change to an static IP through "/etc/network/interfaces". Ihave added these lines:" http://pastie.org/738722 " but when im doing the command: "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" it tells me: " http://pastie.org/739021 ". How do i continue to make it work? thank you.
[15:31] <therekku> How do i enable Conky?

[15:32] <wack479> :/topic #ubuntu
[15:32] <janaus> zoug: still error 22... and now i cant use the install cd's boot from first hdd option.. it just comes up with a grub shell
[15:33] <Ziber> Mewses: touch /etc/resolv.conf
[15:33] <Ziber> Do you run your own DNS server?
[15:33] <wack479> BlouBlou: thanks!
[15:33] <BlouBlou> wack479: no problem :)
[15:34] <Mewses> Ziber: I do not run my own dns server, Im using a router.
[15:34] <therekku> BlouBlou: Do you know how to Enable Conky? :-/
[15:34] <zoug> did you do exactly what i told? i mean you installed grub on MBR of hd0. this over-rides anything on HD before.
[15:34] <BlouBlou> therekku: right now... no, sorry
[15:34] <janaus> zoug: yes
[15:34] <zoug> janaus: did you got any errors while installing grub
[15:34] <Mewses> ziber: The baseunit computer (Wired) is connected to a router, the problem is that i cant access the internet. so im giving you info through a usb flash drive
[15:34] <janaus> zoug: no it seemed happy
[15:34] <Ziber> Mewses: alright. do: "touch resolv.conf ; echo "namserver <IP_ADDRESS> > /etc/resolv.conf"
[15:35] <Ziber> correction:
[15:35] <oorah> is there a cheese alternative for xfce?
[15:35] <Ziber> touch resolv.conf ; echo "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> > /etc/resolv.conf
[15:36] <BlouBlou> therekku: read this >> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205865
[15:36] <Mewses> ok ziber, and then what?
[15:36] <rubbs> oorah: not that I know of, but xfce will use gtk so cheeze will not really add any extra stuff.
[15:36] <Ziber> Mewses: then try /etc/init.d/networking restart
[15:36] <Judgy> Hi there!
[15:36] <rubbs> !hi Judgy
[15:36] <oorah> rubbs, not add extra stuff as in what?
[15:36] <srinu> hi...I am a windows user and a j2EE programmer. I have very less exposure to linux. I want to install open-solaris on my laptop.  Is it suggestable ? Will all my java related software will work on solaris ??
[15:36] <bradpitt> with !puregnome would i lose apps that build in qt, like skype, vlc, earth?
[15:36] <Judgy> Is there an "server" - version available for the new Lucid Lynx alpha?
[15:36] <srinu> Can any body please sugges me on this ?
[15:37] <boscop> ubuntu doesn`t recognize my trackpad anymore. why?
[15:37] <rubbs> oorah: it won't install many extra libraries like it would if you were to use a Qt program (stuff like kmail)
[15:37] <oorah> boscop, have you tried a usb mouse? it might be a workaround
[15:37] <Judgy> Hi rubbs
[15:37] <oorah> rubbs, oh i see thanks.
[15:38] <rubbs> oorah: np, sorry if I didn't give an answer you wanted
[15:38] <Mewses> ziber: It gave me a: "Reconfiguring network interfaces... [OK]. " so it should work i think, now should i do anything else to get (online)?
[15:38] <janaus> anyone know off hand what i need to mount to chroot from a live cd to a hard disk install?
[15:38] <alyu> srinu: all java sw will work on solaris. i suggest you install opensolaris using virtualbox first
[15:38] <oorah> rubbs, would it still most likely function the same?
[15:38] <Mewses> ziber: im using 9.04 jaunty jackalope if that helps
[15:39] <tmt> how to view which version of Ubuntu is installed? (which distro)
[15:39] <Ziber> Mewses: try ping -c4 google.com
[15:39] <rubbs> oorah: yes. You should not notice a difference in function. If you do then it's a bug and not an intention.
[15:39] <boscop> oorah: I use it both, normally. but I would like to be able to use the trackpad, too
[15:39] <Mewses> ziber: unknown host google.com
[15:39] <sal_> judgy i dont think so .. see http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/
[15:39] <Judgy> sal_: Thank you! :)
[15:39] <boscop> oorah: normally Fn-F7 works
[15:39] <srinu> alyu: Can u suggest me whether installing open-solaris or linux is better ? As I am new to linux...but had enough exposure in j2EE programming.
[15:39] <Ziber> Mewses: show me the output of "cat /etc/resolv.conf"
[15:40] <Mewses> its empty ziber :)

[15:40] <cusco> it seems to be fine instructions but
[15:40] <rubbs> !hi | cusco
[15:40] <Ziber> Mewses: echo "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" > /etc/resolv.conf

[15:41] <cusco> hi rubbs
[15:41] <alyu> srinu: opensolaris is not linux! so if you want to learn linux, i suggest you try ubuntu
[15:41] <janaus> zoug: yes ive done that and run sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[15:41] <janaus> zoug: which seems to complete ok
[15:42] <Mewses> Ziber: Im adding the following line: (echo "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" > /etc/resolv.conf) Correct?
[15:42] <janaus> zoug: im willing to bet if i reboot now ill still get error 22 but the install cd boot first hard disk option might come back to life
[15:42] <zoug> janaus: so its working? getting your grub back?
[15:42] <janaus> zoug: sudo grub is still cmd not found
[15:42] <Ziber> Mewses: either type that in the shell, or just put "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" in /etc/resolv.conf

[16:09] <astra-x> is anyone running iredmail on ubuntu 9.10?
[16:09] <kinja-sheep> Guest19202: "aptitude search libdvdcss2 libdvdnav4 libdvdread4" -- Are those packages installed?
[16:09] <Guest19202> they are
[16:10] <bhuvi> xD, true maybe
[16:10] <Guest19202> both are installed
[16:10] <kinja-sheep> Guest19202: All three packages? Also, run this in the terminal -- "sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh"
[16:10] <MrEgg964> Hi all. How can I setup sshd so as to allow freenx access (thru nomachine) and at the same time disable sftp (thru ssh with nautilus)?
[16:11] <bhuvi> xD, i think it should be removed from the repository
[16:12] <always_smile> hello everyone,could you give me the right format to this comand please: gst-register-0.8
[16:12] <Guest19202> just installed and i ran a dvd and got Could not open location; you might not have permission to open the file.
[16:12] <xD> bhuvi: well, if you report bug, community will make a patch (so don't forget enabling community updates)
[16:12] <simplexio> MrEgg964: freenx ? do you mean X over ssh? and i think i saw on/off switch for sftp in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[16:13] <kinja-sheep> Guest19202: Are you owner of the machine? Did you install it yourself?
[16:13] <Guest19202> yes
[16:13] <MrEgg964> simplexio: thanks
[16:13] <Guest19202> i am the owner and installed it myself
[16:14] <kinja-sheep> Guest19202: Hmm. Permissions issues, I guess.  But where to change? I don't know. Did you try lot of tutorials on this that may cover permissions modifications?
[16:15] <zengeos> could the dvd problem be anything to do with region code?
[16:15] <Guest19202> no and i am not sure what u mean
[16:16] <kinja-sheep> Guest19202: What did you use to play DVDs?
[16:16] <gpled> has anyone been able to get a mail client to work with exchange 2007?
[16:16] <Guest19202> never on this macine
[16:17] <always_smile> gst-register-0.8   what's the right format to this,thanks!!
[16:17] <kinja-sheep> Guest19202: I use VLC myself. It works wonders (since all codecs are part of the package too). I'm guessing you're using totem something.  See if VLC works for you too.
[16:17] <Varan> My laptop is indicating an charge rate of 720 W which is ofcourse not right. Does anyone know what could be the problem. The discharge rate is oke
[16:17] <zengeos> Well all my time to leave has come. enjoy! and thanks for the education!
[16:17] <Guest19202> i had windows before when i played them. same dvd different os
[16:17] <Guest19202> ok ill try that now
[16:17] <zengeos> I use VLC also kinja
[16:18] <zengeos> nice program
[16:18] <KongfuToufu> hi,my lap-top can't resume after suspend to ram. Can anyone help?
[16:18] <Daemonis> Does anyboby know any good cpu temperature monitoring software for Ubuntu 9.10?
[16:19] <Dr_Willis_> !info lm-sensors
[16:19] <BluesKaj> can you guys recommend a flv player , for some reason my browsers won't play a DL'd flv file , it'll play the embedded version on the website , but the video has now been taken off theat page .
[16:19] <naoshige> Hello
[16:19] <Dr_Willis_> KongfuToufu:  most all of them use the lm-sensors as the actual part that does the work. THeres dozens of tools that read/show the lm-sensors info
[16:19] <haven489> how to make my wifi
[16:19] <naoshige> What is wrong here?
[16:19] <naoshige> # /etc/init.d/bind9 stop

[16:19] <naoshige> rndc: neither /etc/bind/rndc.conf nor /etc/bind/rndc.key was found
[16:19] <dbruns> how can I set the timezone in ubuntu from the commandline?  8.04
[16:19] <Daemonis> Is it updated? I read up on lm-sensors but it said it was outdated by version 8.something
[16:19] <haven489> how do web server?
[16:19] <aperson> BlueEagle, most any media player should be able to play it
[16:19] <arand> BluesKaj: I normally use VLC...
[16:19] <haven489> iwant wfast web for my party
[16:20] <naoshige> haven489: webserver -> nginx
[16:20] <rickyrickyricky> Ubuntu is a fail, prove me wrong
[16:20] <naoshige> haven489: wifi -> madwifi
[16:20] <haven489> naoshige: i can type nonsense too. \
[16:20] <BluesKaj> arand, VLC doesn't play the video , only the audio
[16:20] <Dr_Willis_> naoshige:  start using 'sudo service' insteat of  init.d/whatever     (since it it slowly gettting obsoleted_
[16:20] <Daemonis> Ubuntu isn't a fail
[16:20] <mehdi-bob> are you sure!
[16:20] <naoshige> haven489: watch your mouth now
[16:20] <syk> ubuntu rocks
[16:20] <Pici> rickyrickyricky: This is a support channel.   Back it up with evidence.  It's not up to us to prove a negative.
[16:21] <Dr_Willis_> naoshige:  as for the rest.. No idea.  Can anyone help me?
[16:22] <aperson> !language
[16:22] <Pici> !language | funnybutty
[16:22] <funnybutty> lol
[16:22] <funnybutty> looool
[16:22] <funnybutty> ubuntu sux0rs
[16:22] <BluesKaj> funnybutty, bully for you , you learned a new curse word
[16:23] <rickyrickyricky> Secondly, every single one of my drivers become incompatible with ubuntu, therefore, i cannot connect to the internet, so i cannot download new drivers.
[16:23] <naoshige> Does BIND9 on ubuntu require rndc?
[16:23] <Dr_Willis_> rickyrickyricky:  It pops up a dialog here on my windows box's to do a wubi install.. or you boot and it sets a dual boot setup. Your option.
[16:23] <sipior> funnybutty: go away.
[16:23] <Dr_Willis_> rickyrickyricky:  so you did install ubuntu then? and thats your actual support question?
[16:23] <dimitar> haha
[16:23] <therekku> Is there any Nice little Application thats Easy to use (unlike Conky) that Allows me to place a Ram / Cpu Usage Monitor + Time + other small things, e.g. Songs playing etc. on my Desktop, the way conky does? if no, can someone tell me where to place the conkyr file?
[16:24] <dimitar> hi!
[16:24] <Daemonis> Thank god
[16:24] <arand> BluesKaj: you might at least be able to convert it... By the way,I've had a lot of flvs simply come out as corrupted in one way or other, so redownloading, or even waiting a day and then redownloading (experience with youtube) might get you a proper version, all depnding on what/where the file is...
[16:24] <rickyrickyricky> i installed ubuntu and found no option as i carried on with the installation to do a dual boot setup.
[16:24] <naoshige> Hello. When stopping BIND9, I get: rndc: neither /etc/bind/rndc.conf nor /etc/bind/rndc.key was found - does anybody know what's wrong?
[16:24] <Dr_Willis_> therekku:  theres hundereds of conky scripts/examples at the conky home page you can use/alter as you want.  Or try gkrellm (i think i spelt that riught)
[16:24] <aperson> therekku, check the forum, there are loads of conky configs there
[16:24] <naoshige> How do I generate those two files?
[16:24] <dimitar> does anyone know program that show you HDD,cpu,ram,network protocol...please?
[16:24] <rickyrickyricky> So now i have a computer with only Ubuntu, with no compatible drivers, and no disk to reinstall vista.
[16:24] <Daemonis> Ricky, when you set up the partition there is an option to use any free space on your disc other than your operating system
[16:24] <cfedde> on 9.10 should initctl list show me some output?
[16:24] <Dr_Willis_> rickyrickyricky:   installed how? booted the cd? or double clicked somthing  under windows?
[16:25] <dimitar> does anyone know program that show you HDD,cpu,ram,network protocol...please?
[16:25] <aperson> dimitar, conky, gkrellm
[16:25] <rickyrickyricky> and i cant even use software centre as everything isn't available
[16:25] <Daemonis> But that space has to be unformatted, if it's NTFS it wont work
[16:25] <dimitar> @aperson THANKS
[16:25] <rickyrickyricky> No, no there isn't.
[16:25] <BluesKaj> arand, there's an app called youtubedl , (I think) ..
[16:25] <dimitar> aperson thanks
[16:25] <mic69> hello
[16:25] <xD> !hi | mic69
[16:25] <sal_> ricky3 sounds like you skipped the partitioning
[16:25] <naoshige> When stopping BIND9, I get: rndc: neither /etc/bind/rndc.conf nor /etc/bind/rndc.key was found - does anybody know what's wrong? How do I generate those two files?
[16:26] <Dr_Willis_> !bind
[16:26] <rickyrickyricky> everytime i tried to do anything other than the "format and continue" option, i was confronted with an error saying that no partition was selected
[16:26] <Daemonis> Ricky, you have to make a partition. Are you using windows?
[16:26] <BluesKaj> arand, or you could always use the FF tmp file to dl after the file has fifnished buffering
[16:26] <rickyrickyricky> so i was literally FORCED into formatting or not installing
[16:26] <sal_> ricky which version are you trying to install?
[16:26] <aperson> rickyrickyricky, likely not
[16:26] <rickyrickyricky> i WAS using vista on the computer i wanted to try ubuntu on
[16:27] <mic69> mi serve un canale in italiano
[16:27] <rickyrickyricky> until ubuntu decided to be shit
[16:27] <sal_> aperson true there
[16:27]  * Dr_Willis_ waits for the fun.
[16:27] <rickyrickyricky> 9.10
[16:27] <Daemonis> Ricky: If your using windows, right click my computer and go to "manage" and then go to disc management... from there you can create free space by shrinking your other partition
[16:27] <Daemonis> Then you can use that space to install Ubuntu
[16:27] <ganymede> hi, i don't know how much help i'll get since i'm using a daily-builds PPA, but the daily build of thunderbird 3.0 is "shredding" my inbox...is there a PPA that rolls out stable releases rather than daily source builds? i'd like to install 3.0.0 released and have it update through apt instead of a manual install. (also, i'm assuming 3.0 won't make it into karmic's official repo cause if it is, i can just wait)
[16:28] <rickyrickyricky> oh, of course, as i get the installation CD, i am to automatically know that i need to seek assistance and shrink a partition without ever being told to do so
[16:28] <Dr_Willis_> ganymede:  normally theres not version changes  once a release is released. thats why ppa are so popular.
[16:28] <ganymede> the exact issues that i'm having is that new emails fetched through POP are just not showing up in my inbox. i hear the new mail sound, and i see Inbox (1) to indicate 1 unread message but that unread message is nowhere to be found. anyone else having this issue?
[16:28] <mihau> hello
[16:28] <arand> BluesKaj: Hmm, I'm confused now, it was you that was asking for help right? :D
[16:28] <kinja-sheep> ganymede: My understanding with Ubuntu policy is that they only do security and bug fixes. It'll be rolled upon in Lucid.
[16:28] <Daemonis> Ricky: If you used the manual option you could have probably used the ubuntu cd to shrink the partition too
[16:28] <mihau> how can I change encoding form utf-8 to iso-8859-2
[16:28] <sal_> a bit of advance research goes a long way
[16:28] <mihau> i tried to google it, change some values, and still nothing
[16:28] <mihau> system is 9.10
[16:29] <Dr_Willis_> Daemonis:  the automatic option auto resized here..  but  who knows what some people do :)
[16:29] <Mewses> Question: Im trying to get my internet to work on my baseunit, its a wired connection. Im able to ping sites like google.com with their ip, not their http address, so i guess its the DNS there. But shouldn't my connection work since i can ping sites but i cant access the internet, what do you think? please help me out. thanks.
[16:29] <rickyrickyricky> nope
[16:29] <aperson> Daemonis, the installer should just automatically do by default
[16:29] <poisonborz> could anyone help with my installation problem? ubuntu installer doesn't see my sata hdd, even if bios and livecd nautilus properly displays it
[16:29] <sal_> ricky is your internet wireless, or can you plug into a wire?
[16:29] <rickyrickyricky> every single thing i tried other than formatting gave me an error
[16:29] <abe3k> guys,  I'm having a problem, under the sys/admin/software sources/    when I choose the "Select Best Server" for the package download the application crashes, anyone else is experiencing this ?
[16:29] <newhunter> Ricky: I recommend you use the partitionmagic program
[16:29] <rickyrickyricky> no, it's wireless
[16:29] <coachz> how do i make a shortcut to run gnome-terminal and run my command     tail -f myfile  ?
[16:30] <BluesKaj> arand, well, I just have one ptoblem and that's with flv file playback , after downloading
[16:30] <Daemonis> poisonborz: does windows see the hard drive?
[16:30] <kinja-sheep> coachz: Right-click and create "Launcher"
[16:30] <simplexio> Mewses: dns server isnt configured right , try ping dns server ip
[16:30] <Dr_Willis_> coachz:  for xterm i know theres a   xterm -e 'tail -f whtever'  option..  I think gnome-terminal has a similer option.
[16:30] <mic69> hello
[16:30] <coachz> kinja-sheep,  what to put for the command ?
[16:30] <dimitar> how to change settings in conky?
[16:30] <rickyrickyricky> i was pretty sure that ubuntu was made out to be user friendly, yet, nothing is explained, and i'm constantly confronted with jargon and abbrieviations
[16:30] <sal_> ricky do you have access to a wired connection at all?
[16:30] <poisonborz> daemonis: good question, I get an rc dvd and try it..
[16:31] <Dr_Willis_> coachz:  yea. gnome terminal also supports the -e option
[16:31] <arand> BluesKaj: mhm, and it might be that your file is corrupted there, was what I was implying.
[16:31] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: https://help.ubuntu.com for an introduction
[16:31] <coachz> thanks Dr_Willis_  !
[16:31] <kinja-sheep> coachz: Whatever command you want to run. Dr_Willis_'s advice sounds good too.
[16:31] <dimitar> how to change settings in conky?
[16:31] <Dr_Willis_> coachz:  'gnome-terminal    -e tail -f whatever'
[16:31] <coachz> perfect, you guys rock
[16:31] <Daemonis> poisonborz: yeah. it could be the HDD itself... I've had several hard drives that for some reason were unable to be booted too but still functioned for data
[16:31] <BluesKaj> arand, the audio portion plays on vlc, but not the video
[16:31] <kinja-sheep> !conky | dimitar
[16:31] <coachz> do i put the tail -f what in quotes ?
[16:31] <Daemonis> Perhaps due to a currupt master boot record
[16:31] <Dr_Willis_> coachz:  there were some tools that can embed the tail-f output in a root 'window' so its below all other things and on the dekstop
[16:32] <newhunter> Mewses: did you check out about proxy configurations on you internet server?
[16:32] <rickyrickyricky> and basically, ubuntu is ugly, and incompatible with anything you want to use, i can't see why ANYONE would use ubuntu instead of windows 7
[16:32] <Mewses> Simplexico: On what computer, the one i got problems with or on this computer?
[16:32] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: no problem them, don't use it
[16:32] <aperson> rickyrickyricky, no one is forcing you to use ubuntu
[16:32] <sal_> bye ricky
[16:32] <Daemonis> poisonborz: also you should check up and see if there are any specific drivers you need, for your motherboard
[16:32] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: the link I've pointed you will explain how to potentially change it and get more out of it, if you don't like it though, don't use it
[16:32] <Mewses> Newhunter: Its my router im having problems with i guess.
[16:33] <mihau> can anyone help me to change encoding? my system is ubuntu 9.10
[16:33] <newhunter>  rickyrickyricky: you are out of your mind!
[16:33] <rickyrickyricky> i'm trying to get answers as to why i wasn't allowed to do anything except for formatting
[16:33] <poisonborz> Daemonis: you mean for ubuntu? it's an a7n8x, so nothing exotic..
[16:33] <Daemonis> poisonborz: sometimes if your motherboard doesn't support sata (you use a sata pci card for example) in order for an os to read it before installing you need to load sata drivers
[16:33] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: you're allowed to do many things, if you read the document I've given you it will be a solid introduction
[16:33] <aperson> rickyrickyricky, it's your tone, no one likes to help someone that's set on complaining
[16:33] <rickyrickyricky> njogjnoJNOagjnoaggjoGAJOGJONGASjnoGAJONGASjnoASGjnogasojnasgojngasojnASGGASgas
[16:34] <rickyrickyricky> ikonia, i'm talking about installation
[16:34] <bazhang> rickyrickyricky, please stop that
[16:34] <sipior> rickyrickyricky: do you need your bottle?
[16:34] <rickyrickyricky> not "getting more out of ubuntu"
[16:34] <Mewses> sipior: Highfive
[16:34] <sal_> ricky you are NOT trying to get answers
[16:34] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: ahh, so you've not used ubuntu so you're earlier comments where nonsense
[16:34] <arand> rickyrickyricky: so what error are you getting?
[16:34] <Daemonis> poisonborz: Yeah, for Ubuntu. I've never needed it but I think it gives you the option of loading specific hardware drivers before you start the install, just like windows does
[16:34] <rickyrickyricky> i have ubuntu installed on the computer i'm talking about
[16:34] <rickyrickyricky> the one i formatted
[16:34] <rickyrickyricky> to install ubuntu
[16:34] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: so then the installer worked and there is no problem then
[16:34] <rickyrickyricky> and it has no drivers
[16:34] <Pici> !enter
[16:34] <rickyrickyricky> cant connect to internet
[16:35] <Rajasun> rrckyrickyricky: ugly? or just whining? http://www.imgplace.com/viewimg137/9001/9506dec2009228gnomed.png :P
[16:35] <rickyrickyricky> and now i have no way of reinstalling vista
[16:35] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky:  you're connected to the internet now, if you read the guide I sent you it will explain about propriatary drivers
[16:35] <rickyrickyricky> ew
[16:35] <Daemonis> poisonborz: but if your bios recognizes the drive then my guess would be that it was a currupt master boot record
[16:35] <newhunter> Mewses: hum.. so I think you should try to reconfigure your router
[16:35] <bhuvi> lm_sensors does not report fan speed in my ubuntu 9.10 but it worked fine in my ubuntu 8.04
[16:35] <sal_> ricky  what wireless device are you using, know the chipset?
[16:35] <sipior> rickyrickyricky: surely you can simply use the media vista came on to reinstall?
[16:36] <dimitar> how to install atheros wireless driver in ubuntu?
[16:36] <aperson> sipior, it likely came installed with only a restore partition
[16:36] <Mewses> newhunter: where should i start, haha. I've setup a DDNS using this guide: http://en-us-support.belkin.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/44
[16:36] <Dr_Willis_> bhuvi:  thats weird.  Not sure what to say other then check for bug reports on it.
[16:36] <rickyrickyricky> no i dont know the chipset
[16:36] <rickyrickyricky> and no
[16:36] <rickyrickyricky> i wasnt given a disk to install vista
[16:36] <Mewses> Newhunter: Idk what else to do rly, maybe restarting it?
[16:36] <rickyrickyricky> it came with the computer
[16:36] <sipior> aperson: another point against windows, i guess
[16:36] <dimitar> how to install atheros wireless driver in ubuntu?
[16:36] <aperson> sipior, indeed
[16:37] <Dr_Willis_> and No you dident bother to make the backup disks they try to get you to make...
[16:37] <arand> dimitar: you have looked at "hardware drivers" in the admin menu?
[16:37] <poisonborz> Daemon: ok, I'll try to reformat the drive again, and test if win install detects it. thanks a lot
[16:37] <dimitar> arand yes there is nothing
[16:37] <sal_> ricky follow dimitar, a good approach
[16:37] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: vista we can't help you with - however we can help you with the propriatary drivers if you check the document I sent you
[16:37] <Mewses> newhunter: Im able to ping my dns from this computer, im using xp on this one since its my schools computer. it works fine. but i cant ping it from my defected comp.
[16:37] <bhuvi> Dr_Willis_, k ill check for it
[16:37] <rickyrickyricky> ikonia: i dont see anything about "propriatary drivers"
[16:38] <Dr_Willis_> bhuvi:  lm-sensors reads info from the kernel stuff.. so im not sure how that would vanish. It could be theres some moduiles that need tobe loaded. You did run the 'sensors-detect' command ?
[16:38] <bhuvi> Dr_Willis_, k ill check for it
[16:38] <newhunter> Mewses: if you are not going to have problems in restarting it, it would be a good shot...
[16:38] <Daemonis> How do you rum lm-sensors from the terminal?
[16:38] <dimitar> how to install atheros wireless driver in ubuntu? i looked in 'hardware drivers' nothing there.
[16:38] <shahego> is kopete can do video call for ymessenger
[16:38] <bhuvi> Dr_Willis_, sorry i double posted

[16:40] <newhunter> Mewses: Have you tried to find answers on you router manual?
[16:40] <shahego> Dr_Willis_, how to video chat using kopete as ymessenger
[16:40] <Dr_Willis_> shahego:  no idea.
[16:40] <newhunter> Mewses: Sometimes they are really useful..
[16:41] <tobiasz> pcman is unusable
[16:41] <bhuvi> Dr_Willis_, s i had done it right after installing it a week ago or so
[16:41] <Dr_Willis_> tobiasz:  i also find pcmanfm very annoying.  the main thing i hate about lxde.
[16:41] <tobiasz> Dr_Willis there is no common sense in that stupid pcman, how can I use nautilus in lxde?
[16:41] <LinuxFAILER> Newhunter: I think my parents uses manuals as wood for the fire, if you get what i mean :)
[16:42] <bhuvi> Dr_Willis_, sometimes i also get acpi resource conflict during boot
[16:42] <pepin> anyone know whats up with receiving "Authentication failure" after the /etc/rc* scripts run???
[16:42] <aperson> anyone know a quick way to lock my keyboard?
[16:42] <shahego> Dr_Willis_, any other video chat software like ymessenger in ubuntu 9.10
[16:42] <bhuvi> Dr_Willis_, sometimes i also get acpi resource conflict message during boot
[16:42] <aperson> anyone know a quick way to lock my keyboard?
[16:42] <Dr_Willis_> shahego:  no idea. I dont use video chat.
[16:42] <aperson> whoops, sorry for the double post
[16:42] <newhunter> mewseslol: maybe there are topics in forum that can help you
[16:43] <tobiasz> can I use lxde with nautilus?
[16:43] <mic69> ciao
[16:43] <bassliner> tobiasz: you can start nautilus with nautilus --no-desktop
[16:43] <rickyrickyricky> intel corporation 82801G (ICH7 family)
[16:43] <rickyrickyricky> thats all it says
[16:43] <tobiasz> pcman is useless garbage coded by a retard
[16:43] <shahego> Dr_Willis_, who can help me on this
[16:44] <bassliner> pcmanfm is a great filemanager.
[16:44] <tobiasz> it sucks
[16:44] <mewseslol> newhunter: Well, what is really the problem then? I can ping ips from my baseunit which i cant connect to internet with, isn't it morelikely a eth0 problem or a driver problem for my network card?
[16:44] <bassliner> tobiasz: it does not.
[16:44] <bassliner> tobiasz: maybe it doesn't fit your needs, but it doesn't suck by all means.
[16:44] <tobiasz> bassliner it doesn't remember what program to use to open jpg, avi etc
[16:44] <tobiasz> it does suck by all means
[16:44] <shoonya> how to build a .deb package from source ?
[16:44] <alexstre^> I just booted 9.10 from the live cd on an iMac G5 and right after the boot a pop up showed property drivers to install for my wireless to work, which I enabled and everything was fine. I then completed the install and reboot in the "real, installed" ubuntu and the pop up never showed up... Anyone knows how I can enable those drivers manually? I can't find anything in Admin-> Hardware Drivers either
[16:44] <bassliner> tobiasz: then don't use it. the reason you use linux is that you got freedom of choice.
[16:44] <ikonia> shoonya: it's quite a long process to learn - it's documented on help.ubuntu.com
[16:45] <shoonya> i have downloaded the source (.tar), diff file and .dsc files
[16:45] <aeon-ltd> tobiasz: pcmanfm? most people prefer that over bloated crap like nautilus
[16:45] <bassliner> tobiasz: and it DOES remember what i use to open stuff with.
[16:45] <tobiasz> bassliner it doesn't for me
[16:45] <tobiasz> pcmanfm is a big hole of uselessness for me
[16:45] <shahego> bassliner, do you knw how to use kopete as ymessenger for video call
[16:46] <vantom> hi
[16:46] <bassliner> tobiasz: hm, actually it really doesn't remember it. i was confusing it with thunar.
[16:46] <newhunter> mewseslol: its likely a driver problem, did the problem happen suddenly?
[16:46] <bassliner> tobiasz: you should give thunar a try. :-)
[16:46] <tobiasz> I will because pcmanfm is useless garbage
[16:46] <mewseslol> newhunter: no, i installed Ubuntu 9.04 yesterday
[16:47] <bhuvi> pepin, do you get the same when sudo ?
[16:47] <newhunter> mewseslol: hum..
[16:47] <h4f1> hi
[16:47] <mewseslol> newhunter: I've done alot of changes so im thinking on doing a reformat to make things easier
[16:47] <h4f1> any one hear me ?
[16:48] <shahego> halooooo....anybody can help on ymessenger in ubuntu for video call
[16:48] <pepin> bhuvi: I dont get a chance to get to a prompt to sudo.. I've tried ln-s'n sudo to /bin/true or /bin/dash to see if it fixed it
[16:48] <pepin> bhuvi: but still.. I get the message
[16:48] <sal_> ricky i think thats an audio driver
[16:48] <Dr_Willis_> !im | shahego
[16:48] <Samual-Ubuntu> Hey, i'm using xserver-xgl with xinerama on three monitors and i'm getting an error while trying to start gnome-settings-daemon -- http://pastebin.com/m12d9202
[16:49] <mewseslol> newhunter: My network card is "marvell yukon 88e8056"
[16:49] <Samual-Ubuntu> Any idea what's wrong?
[16:49] <newhunter> mewseslol: now I am quite sure its a problem with the driver you have installed, did you check out whether others have faced the same problem? Maybe they have found a solution
[16:49] <bhuvi> pepin, i think you might be missing something in /etc/hosts file
[16:49] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: is that your wirless card ?
[16:49] <bhuvi> pepin, can you look at that file
[16:49] <newhunter> mewseslol: anyway, try to install another network driver
[16:49] <sal_> ricky find the line with 'network controller'
[16:49] <mewseslol> newhunter: I used 8hrs of my life yesterday by using google :)
[16:49] <pepin> hmm.. I havent tried that yet.. like a proper hostname, or localhost?
[16:50] <shahego> ubottu, i had tried out kopete but unable video call/chat
[16:50] <rickyrickyricky> ikonia
[16:50] <Daemonis> Does anyone know how to set default programs by extensions? I want to set a program for music files and a different one for video files.
[16:50] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: yes ?
[16:50] <rickyrickyricky> i need the broadcom b43 wireless driver
[16:50] <Dr_Willis_> Daemonis:  right click on the file with the extension, properties -> check the tabs
[16:50] <rickyrickyricky> thats what i can see in system > administration > hardware drivers
[16:50] <carpediem> Samual-Ubuntu: I think I had that exact error using the open source nvidia driver, went away after switching to the closed binary
[16:50] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: ok, so enable it ?
[16:51] <newhunter> mewseslol: hum.. it sucks..
[16:51] <rickyrickyricky> but i try to activate and i cant download and install cos i need internet connection, and i cant connect because i dont have the driver
[16:51] <error404notfound> i am running karmic and using startupmanager to set http://www.ubuntu-art.org/content/show.php/Dell+Usplash?content=92805 , Problem is no matter what USplash i set beside the karmic's original i instead see a strange splash with circle, rectangles and etc, like when you are changing your TV's settings or playing with monitor contrast
[16:51] <bhuvi> pepin, i got that error in the past and corrected it by correcting the contents of the file
[16:51] <shahego> Dr_Willis_, i had tried kopete but unable to use video call/chat...????
[16:51] <rickyrickyricky> i need the driver to download the driver,
[16:51] <Dr_Willis_> Its always so annoying when you get in a 'catch 22' situation when needing drivers
[16:51] <mewseslol> newhunter: im formatting my computer now, things will get easier
[16:51] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: ahh, I see, for that you'll need to hook up on a wired connection to download it
[16:51] <Dr_Willis_> shahego:  No idea. last time i did a video chat was 3+ years ago
[16:51] <sal_> ricky please listen close - you are getting close.  the b43 driver is possible.  do you know which one?  b43 18? or whate ver ..
[16:51] <rickyrickyricky> -_-
[16:51] <Samual-Ubuntu> carpediem, i'm using the proprietary one from nvidia.com.
[16:51] <pepin> bhuvi looks like I dont have a /etc/hosts file. lol. I'm gonna try that.. thanks a bunch! :)
[16:51] <rickyrickyricky> i dont have the time or patience or resources to do that
[16:51] <Samual-Ubuntu> carpediem, so that is not it.
[16:52] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: ok - then it's not going to happen,
[16:52] <Dr_Willis_> rickyrickyricky:  so.. give up?  or run a cable and take the few min it takes..
[16:52] <bhuvi> Dr_Willis_, if i report a bug on it,which package i should report against can u help me?
[16:52] <rickyrickyricky> can i not download it on this pc, then use a usb stick to move it to that pc ?
[16:52] <Samual-Ubuntu> carpediem, but again, i'm using xserver-xgl.. And it works when xserver-xgl is disabled.
[16:52] <newhunter> mewseslol: formating its not always the best solution
[16:52] <Dr_Willis_> bhuvi:  id say start with lm-sensors - they may be able t point it to a better place.
[16:52] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: you can, but that will take longer than hookinh your other pc up to a wire
[16:52] <shahego> Dr_Willis_, i had install skype but nw like to remove it, hw am i going about it thro terminal...???
[16:52] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: so if you have no time to plug in a cable, you won't have the time or pateince to do this
[16:52] <maco> rickyrickyricky: i think the b43 driver is on the ubuntu cd
[16:52] <rickyrickyricky> i dont have a wire
[16:53] <Dr_Willis_> shahego:  sudo apt-get remove <whatever>
[16:53] <maco> rickyrickyricky: no wait thats bcmwl. sorry
[16:53] <newhunter> mewseslol: hum.. try some proprietary drivers
[16:53] <maco> rickyrickyricky: you need firmware
[16:53] <ikonia> maco: didn't think so
[16:53] <maco> rickyrickyricky: if you have the windows driver, the firmware can be extracted from that
[16:53] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: well, it's not going to happen
[16:53] <rickyrickyricky> where can i download the b43 driver then
[16:53] <mewseslol> newhunter: In this case it is. The computer doesn't have anything on it. and its a monster so the format will go fast. i've already begun
[16:53] <bhuvi> Dr_Willis_, it was made impossible to report a bug without a package name
[16:53] <maco> rickyrickyricky, ikonia: bcmwl and b43 driver are both included. b43 needs firmware though, and that firmware can come from a windows driver
[16:53] <carpediem> Samual-Ubuntu: um, so you are using a non-standard X server that hasn't been necessary for years and wondering why you have issues?
[16:53] <rickyrickyricky> -_-
[16:53] <Dr_Willis_> bhuvi:  report it on lm-sensors if the 'sensors' output is not showing the proper info i guess
[16:54] <ikonia> maco: if he won't plugin a cable extracting driver files is not going to happen
[16:54] <rickyrickyricky> so, what the hell do i do
[16:54] <rickyrickyricky> windows was formatted off
[16:54] <rickyrickyricky> so i doubt i have the firmware
[16:54] <maco> rickyrickyricky: you're on a secondary computer right now
[16:54] <rickyrickyricky> it must be available somewhere else
[16:54] <Samual-Ubuntu> carpediem, not "wondering why", just trying to fix why :P And, i'm only doing it so I can have support for 3 monitors with Compiz and Xinerama.
[16:54] <ikonia> rickyrickyricky: buy an ethernet cable, they are handy to have around
[16:54] <maco> rickyrickyricky: download teh windows driver from the internet
[16:54] <sal_> ricky read this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[16:54] <rickyrickyricky> what driver
[16:54] <newhunter> mewseslol: ok... why dont you try the new ubuntu?
[16:55] <shahego> Dr-Willis, can ymessenger be install in ubuntu 9.10...hw to install????
[16:55] <maco> rickyrickyricky: the one for your wireless
[16:55] <bhuvi> Dr_Willis_, when i try against with lm_sensors it says they are not using launchpad and they are asking help from me what should i do
[16:55] <maco> rickyrickyricky: whatever company made your computer should have it onlne
[16:55] <sal_> ricky toward the bottom is detail on setting up with no alternate internet connection
[16:55] <mewseslol> newhunter: Im going to try 9.04. isn't that the new one?
[16:55] <thiebaude> 9.10
[16:55] <maco> rickyrickyricky: then get the b43-fwcutter deb from packages.ubuntu.com
[16:55] <Dr_Willis_> bhuvi:  no idea then.   check the lm_sensors web site i guess
[16:55] <maco> rickyrickyricky: put them both on a flash drive and transfer it to your ubuntu computer
[16:55] <carpediem> Samual-Ubuntu: hmm, yeah, I've set up 3 under standard ubuntu install, the lack of Xinerama support does suck, not being able to drag windows around.
[16:55] <sal_> rickyrickyricky, you can download the files, etc to a usb then unload them to ubuntu
[16:56] <maco> ikonia: no need to be so difficult
[16:56] <newhunter>  mewseslol:no its not.. the newer version is ubuntu 9.10
[16:56] <ikonia> maco: not at all, if someone hasn't got the patience to plug in a cable - they won't be able to do what you've suggested
[16:56] <mewseslol> newhunter: ok, ill try it out, live-cd exists yes?
[16:56] <maco> ikonia: yes they can. theyre on another computer and suggested *on their own* using a flash drive, did they not?
[16:57] <rickyrickyricky> gonna try now
[16:57] <Samual-Ubuntu> carpediem, Indeed.. For me: It's either full 3 screen support with Compiz... or Windows.... So i'm trying the best I can to get this working properly.
[16:57] <shahego> newhunter, any ymessenger can be install in ubuntu for video call/chat ?????
[16:57] <maco> ikonia: not everyone has a cable, and not all computers have rj45 jacks
[16:57] <ikonia> maco: well, lets see
[16:57] <sal_> rickyrickyricky, when this is all done, goto your administration tab to drivers to enable the b43
[16:57] <newhunter>  mewseslol: I am using and I didnt have any problem.. yes there is a live CD
[16:57] <Samual-Ubuntu> carpediem, I would use Xinerama alone, but that sucks as i'm sure you know.
[16:57] <mewseslol> newhunter: thank you! ill try this out. may i contact you later?
[16:57] <sal_> check you packages to see the b43 fwcutter is installed as well
[16:58] <ccr> mld
[16:58] <maco> sal_: i told him how to fetch it from packages.ubuntu.com
[16:58] <mewseslol> 2.5mb/s, lol. this wont take to long (brag)
[16:58] <ikonia> sal_: can't do that as he has not interenet connection
[16:58] <bhuvi> Dr_Willis_, i tried reporting bug a week ago and got angry and i stopped trying because if i tried reporting against acpi i got same message and i also tried others related to it but with no success
[16:59] <newhunter>  mewseslol: yes
[16:59] <sal_> ikonia, its all in the page link.  he has the same problem i did, the b43 nonsense with no internet connection. its possible
[16:59] <sal_> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[16:59] <ikonia> sal_: I agree it's possible
[16:59] <Dr_Willis_> forum thread i saw mentions using the  Broadcomn 43xx chipset  and using the  sta drivers instead. (no idea which works ) -->  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1286763&mode=linear
[17:00] <Dr_Willis_> bhuvi:  ive not reported a bug since beta. and even then.. all i really did was confirm other peoples bugs.
[17:00] <newhunter>  mewseslol: do you want my email?
[17:00] <shahego> newhunter, can u help me on w to install ymessenger that can be use in ubuntu 9.10
[17:01] <xckpd7> can anyone recommend/not recommend using IEs4Linux?
[17:01] <ikonia> xckpd7: I recommend not
[17:01] <Dr_Willis_> xckpd7:  its designed to just test out your html/sites to be sure they render proplery in IE. not for use for 'browsing'
[17:01] <pepin> bhuvi: no dice.. although, I thought that'd do it.
[17:01] <Dr_Willis_> xckpd7:  so what do you want to 'use' it for?
[17:02] <kinja-sheep> xckpd7: Not recommended because IE is one of Microsoft's hell minions.
[17:02] <newhunter>  mewseslol: yes.. check out pidgin
[17:02] <xckpd7> Dr_Willis_: doing html/css
[17:02] <BluesKaj> arand,  fixed my VLC problem ..flv plays now ...seems there's a 20sec delay til the video activates dunno why
[17:02] <xckpd7> Dr_Willis_: I was told to use a VM but I really don't want to if IEs4Linux is good (I was told it was unstable by someone but I want confirmation)
[17:02] <Dr_Willis_> xckpd7:  then use it to 'verify' your stuff works in IE - or just use a spare machine that has windows...  your decision.
[17:03] <Dr_Willis_> xckpd7:  or use a vm.  Thers even live-windows cd's you cold use in a vm. (not legal however)
[17:03] <arand> BluesKaj: heh... well, wonder if converting it to another format might fixit.
[17:03] <sal_> rickyrickyricky, not all b43 drivers are supported.  you should confirm what you have b43xx ??
[17:03] <newhunter> mewseslol: its a good messenger for ubuntu
[17:03] <kinja-sheep> xckpd7: Simple if statement. if(ie), pageRender(false) && displayMessage("Have some decency. Use Firefox or Opera");
[17:03] <bhuvi> pepin, is the problem solved now
[17:04] <pepin> bhuvi: no.. same message.
[17:04] <xckpd7> Dr_Willis_: Ok so the issue is, I have a VM now but I want to avoid using it (only if IEs4linux runs alright). I was told to stay away from IEs4Linux but I don't know if that is good advice/bad advice
[17:04] <perlmonkey2> I've noticed that after the latest kernel updates my cpuspeed daemon isn't working correctly.  I'm stuck in the lowest speed no matter what I do or run.  Only way to speed it up is to manually set it.
[17:04] <andyspg> ciao
[17:05] <andyspg> !list
[17:05] <bazhang> !it | andyspg
[17:05] <pepin> bhuvi: I started the system with a debootstrap.. it works fine for a bit, but something will get changed, and then I have this issue.
[17:05] <Dr_Willis_> xckpd7:  try it and see.. thats the Ultimate answer.
[17:05] <pepin> bhuvi: I thought it was when I added a latest udev, but I'm sure.
[17:05] <rickyrickyricky> cant get it to work
[17:06] <rickyrickyricky> it says as step 1 "Install b43-fwcutter (without the firmware downloading and being set up) which should be located on the Ubuntu 9.04 install disc (add it as a repository in Synaptic) or from /var/cache/apt/archives on an Ubuntu computer with b43 installed. "
[17:06] <maco> rickyrickyricky: did you get the deb?
[17:06] <rickyrickyricky> but it isnt in /var/cache/apt/archives and i have no idea where to find it on the install disk
[17:06] <maco> rickyrickyricky: right itd only be in that directory on one that already has it
[17:06] <rickyrickyricky> i downloaded the two files on the link you gave me
[17:07] <rickyrickyricky> put on memory stick and put on the ubuntu pc
[17:07] <maco> rickyrickyricky: im not sure where on the cd it is either, but you got the b43-fwcutter from packages.ubuntu.com right?
[17:07] <maco> rickyrickyricky: double click on the deb that's on the stick
[17:07] <rickyrickyricky> couldnt find it
[17:07] <ikonia> maco: you won't be able to get it off the CD easy, as the CD is squash FS that will need decompression
[17:07] <bhuvi> pepin, have you googled for it
[17:07] <rickyrickyricky> the one that ends in .o ?
[17:07] <maco> ikonia: it just needs to be loop mounted
