[04:52] <abhijit> timpster1, there is a facility called 'nick protection' if you enable this then other cant take your nick. for more info how to do this ask in #freenode.
[04:52] <Dr_Willis> timpster1:  talk to your self often? :)
[04:52] <somethinginteres> ilovefairuz: booted into the old kernel that is ' 2.6.32-16-generic' vs ' 2.6.32-24-generic' (I think) and sound works - how do I file a useful bug report on this?
[04:52] <timpster1> abhijit, thx
[04:52] <ilovefairuz> somethinginteres: join #ubuntu-bugs and ask there
[04:53] <Dr_Willis> timpster1:  i would guess you have 2 irc clients open.
[04:53] <somethinginteres> ilovefairuz: OK thanks again
[04:53] <olskolirc> anyone using bitchx?
[04:53] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: I booted from the cd rom and  i got a purple ubuntu loading screen and now im back to a blank screen
[04:53] <timpster1> Dr_Willis, i say i have 1 Xchat open  idk
[04:53] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  let it sit for a while.. the cd can take a long time to load up..
[04:53] <Fudge> KE1HA  shall do
[04:54] <timpster1> brb
[04:54] <KE1HA> Fudge:  If you ahve trouble, drop back in, lots of folks cna help.
[04:54] <red2kic> Dr_Willis: Or two servers on one client. :-P
[04:54] <Dr_Willis> red2kic:  yep. thats possible..
[04:54] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: i will, i was just concerned because its the same exact lighting and black blank screen i would get when it wouldnt start from the hdd.
[04:54] <Dr_Willis> red2kic:  but then he should have 2 Ubuntu windows open.
[04:54] <timpster> Dr_Willis, yeah you were right
[04:54] <Fudge> thanx KE1HA
[04:55] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  is the cd still loading?
[04:55] <marys> "Ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode" warning message on bootup after initial splash screen "You may need to update your configuration to solve this. "(EE) Logitech USB Receiver failed to initialize for relative axes." Does anyone have ANY ideas? or how to "update my configuration"?
[04:55] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: nope it is just a black screen with nothihng happening
[04:55] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  sounds like it may be hung.. id give it a few min.
[04:55] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: sure will thanks
[04:55] <maheanuu> IaOrana Hello to all
[04:55] <timpster> scriptwarlock, are u still on
[04:56] <timpster> bazhang, are u still on
[04:57] <bazhang> timpster, yes
[04:57] <scriptwarlock> timpster: yes
[04:57] <scriptwarlock> timpster: check attendance? :)
[04:58] <timpster> thx both scriptwarlock and bazhang
[04:58] <bazhang> timpster, welcome
[04:58] <timpster> bazhang, hold on
[04:58] <scriptwarlock> timpster: what did i do? but yes no problem
[04:58] <maheanuu> I just switched from Lucid to Ubuntu Studio 10.04 and am finding that it is a lot better fit on this notebook than Lynx was
[04:58] <timpster> scriptwarlock, is that the ting on the right
[04:59] <timpster> bazhang, yo
[04:59] <scriptwarlock> timpster: yes
[04:59] <bazhang> timpster, what's your question
[04:59] <jbuncher> Hey all, I'm trying to upgrade hardy to lucid, and the steps at http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade only seem to make me initiate the upgrade to 8.10.  Any suggestions?
[04:59] <timpster> scriptwarlock, thx
[04:59] <timpster> bazhang, do you know about ubuntu themes
[04:59] <scriptwarlock> timpster: no problem
[04:59] <bazhang> !themes | timpster
[04:59] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: still the black screen like it tried to boot from the hdd
[05:00] <KE1HA> jbuncher:  wow, big step, may be better to Backup data and do a fresh-install.
[05:00] <timpster> bazhang, who is ubuntu
[05:00] <scriptwarlock> !ubuntu | timpster
[05:00] <bazhang> timpster, lets go to #ubuntu-offtopic for this please
[05:00] <jbuncher> KE1HA, data is already backed up, might as well try the upgrade
[05:00] <timpster> ok hold on
[05:00] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  sounds like deeper issues to me.. You could try the alternative cd. thats a text only installer.. or try to fiugure out some boot time options to disable the plymouth and other features to see some text/error messages.
[05:00] <timpster> how do i do tht
[05:01] <timpster> join what
[05:01] <KE1HA> jbuncher:  Sure, its doable, but I'd go one level up first, then the next.
[05:01] <bazhang> timpster, /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:01] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  id try some other linux lve cds also.. (i got a box of them) :) see if it affects all of them. Wha tis your video card anyway?
[05:01] <scriptwarlock> timpster: if asking some info just type !andyourinfoto ask
[05:01] <jbuncher> KE1HA, well, how do I even get the option to go to Lucid?  Don't really want to do 3 download and upgrades
[05:02] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: where would i get the text only version, and im not exactly sure what the video card is. it was my dads laptop up until about a week or so ago
[05:02] <Flannel> jbuncher: You can upgrade straight from 8.04 to 10.04, that's supported and all good.
[05:02] <KE1HA> jbuncher:  well the liveCD should prompt you, asking if you would like to upgrade.
[05:02] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  ubuntu download pages have the alterntove- cd's
[05:02] <maheanuu> Ubuntu Noob, did you set your bios for a CD boot, I don't mean to butt in and excuse me for asking if it's not cool
[05:02] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: the difference with this black screen is that the computer wont turn off when i just press the power button, so im not too sure
[05:03] <Flannel> jbuncher: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades
[05:03] <jbuncher> Flannel, how do I accomplish that via network upgrade?  steps at http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade make it try to pull down intrepid
[05:03] <Flannel> KE1HA, jbuncher: A liveCD is *not* a method of upgrading.
[05:03] <Flannel> jbuncher: Let me take a look at that page
[05:03] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  You  may also want to test out some non-ubuntu disrtos like tinycorelinux (10mb) and Puppylinux (120mb) to see if they work. if NONE of them work..  well lets hope one works..
[05:03] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: haha im with that
[05:04] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  i have also seen some weird laptops that defaulted to the external monitor on Linux. using the laptops fn-?? key to toggle the monitors helped on that weird problem.
[05:04] <KE1HA> Flannel:  Ok, which one is? one of them did mine, I thought it was LiveCD
[05:04] <KE1HA> jbuncher:  info on 804 to 10.04: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade
[05:05] <Milez-> I have 2 servers running samba.  they can connect to eachother via ip, but they dont know eachother by their hostname - any ideas what i'm doing wrong?
[05:05] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: the toggle didnt do much, it worked pretty reliably for several years up until last night and that virus tore it apart
[05:05] <jbuncher> KE1HA, in my original post, I said that the steps there just make it want to go to intrepid, not lucid
[05:05] <Flannel> KE1HA, jbuncher: That ubuntu.com page seems strange to me.  But the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades  are what the norm is
[05:05] <maheanuu> I am quite new on Linux and so far I am really impressed with Ubuntu....   I have Puppy and simplymepis running on 2 other machines one a 32 bit tower (simply mepis) and an old notebook with puppy
[05:06] <timpster> ZykoticK9, do you know how i might be able to make my own themes for gnome
[05:06] <Flannel> KE1HA: Th alternate CD can be used to upgrade, the desktop CD is just an installer.
[05:06] <jbuncher> Flannel, I can click "Check" until I'm blue in the face, but it only ever wants to let me upgrade to Intrepid, not Lucid.
[05:06] <cfg> hi
[05:06] <Flannel> jbuncher: Are you completely up to date currently?
[05:06] <KE1HA> jbuncher:  the page says, If you have a version of Ubuntu other than Ubuntu 8.04 LTS or Ubuntu 9.10, please see the upgrade notes for more information on how to upgrade. hence: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[05:07] <Flannel> KE1HA: We're past that :)
[05:07] <KE1HA> Flannel:  fare enough, i knew it was one of them.
[05:07] <jbuncher> KE1HA, I have the latest and greatest 8.04.
[05:07] <jbuncher> Flannel, Yes.  Aside from a skype package from skypes repo.
[05:07] <rww> jbuncher: have you done "#
[05:07] <rww> edit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and set Prompt=lts "?
[05:07] <Flannel> jbuncher: Alright, go to software properties and... or do what rww says
[05:07] <cfg> Hi
[05:08] <KE1HA> jbuncher:  On the last link i sent, see the section, From 9.04 or 8.04 too 10.04 LTS
[05:08] <cfg> I was wondering if there is a way to encrypt the main system drive on a linux system using truecypt
[05:09] <UbuntuNoob> here goes tinycore
[05:10] <jbuncher> KE1HA, yes, I've seen that, it doesn't work.
[05:10] <jbuncher> rww , Flannel :  Thanks.  You'd think that'd be listed.  I'm surprised that Intrepid is even still available as an option, as it's not supported.
[05:10] <KE1HA> jbuncher:  and like my original recommendation, going 2x or 3x levels up is not the best path.
[05:11] <UbuntuNoob> looks like tinycore worked so far
[05:11] <jbuncher> KE1HA, we clearly are not communication well.
[05:11] <rww> KE1HA: going from 8.04 to 10.04 is fine, tested, and supported.
[05:12] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: should i wipe the hd not that i have tinycore and then try to re-install ubuntu?
[05:12] <UbuntuNoob> now*
[05:12] <KE1HA> rww Ok, i give up.
[05:15] <abhijit> my friend have 2gb ram. will it be ok if i dont create swapt space?
[05:15] <bazhang> abhijit, better to have swap than not
[05:16] <abhijit> bazhang, 1gb will do? for 2gb ram? actually we are running short on my friends hdd space? thats why
[05:16] <UbuntuNoob> ok so currently, ubuntu will not boot from a cd, the hd will not boot xp, and tinycore will boot from a cd, but cant connect to the network, and im downloading  puppylinux. where should i go from here?
[05:17] <bazhang> abhijit, laptop? wants to hibernate/suspend?
[05:17] <abhijit> bazhang, yes
[05:17] <Milez-> any idea how to get 2 samba servers to know their hostnames?
[05:17] <bazhang> UbuntuNoob, ask in a puppy support channel? was Ubuntu in there somewhere?
[05:17] <Milez-> my window pc can ping them by hostname, but not eachother
[05:17] <jbuncher> Flannel, rww : thanks, started the upgrade.
[05:17] <bazhang> abhijit, then need at least 2GB
[05:18] <abhijit> bazhang, ok. i wll. thanks. :)
[05:18] <UbuntuNoob> bazhang: it was one of the os that i couldnt boot, for some reason, from a cd
[05:18] <rww> jbuncher: awesome. Good luck :)
[05:18] <bazhang> UbuntuNoob, then check their support channel here on freenode
[05:19] <abhijit> hello
[05:19] <Flannel> KE1HA: LTS to LTS (6.06 to 8.04, or 8.04 to 10.04) is supported.  All other versions can only upgrade to/from their previous version (six months out)
[05:19] <jbuncher> rww : thanks, ~ 2350 files to download....
[05:19] <abhijit> can anyone using gnome-do test test this condition and after testing if it affects you can you please mark it affect me also?
[05:19] <abhijit> please?
[05:19] <abhijit> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-do/+bug/622064
[05:19] <abhijit> oh no
[05:19] <UbuntuNoob> bazhang: i thought this was the ubuntu support channel?
[05:20] <bazhang> UbuntuNoob, you are asking about tinycore and puppy I thought
[05:20] <thune3> bazhang: tinycore was part of the debug procedure DrWillis was leading him through
[05:20] <UbuntuNoob> bazhang: not particularly, i was more curious why ubuntu wouldnt boot from a cd that i just burned. im all around confused on what i should do
[05:21] <bazhang> UbuntuNoob, md5 the iso? burn at very low speed and do the disk integrity check? those are the likely culprits in these cases
[05:21] <bazhang> thune3, thanks for the clarification
[05:22] <UbuntuNoob> bazhang: how would i md5 it?
[05:22] <bazhang> !md5 | UbuntuNoob
[05:22] <_numbers> what is with mysql on ubuntu 10.04 64-bit? in several servers it has quit working. hangs on service start or stop
[05:23] <Victor_T> good night
[05:23] <Victor_T> is some one wakeup?
[05:24] <UbuntuNoob> bazhang: download md5sum from md5summer.org?
[05:25] <UbuntuNoob> bazhang: nevermind, got it
[05:26] <Demolitio> sorry in advance to make anyone groan.. but anyone know any good MS SQL-compatible SQL managers I can use with Ubuntu?
[05:27]  * scunizi groans
[05:28] <scunizi> Demolitio: sorry couldn't resist :)
[05:28] <Demolitio> hehe. sorry guys... work requirement :(
[05:28] <Demolitio> lol
[05:28] <UbuntuNoob> bazhang: what should i do after the md5 finishes?
[05:28] <Demolitio> scunizi: believe me...  I groan louder when I work with the bloody software :P
[05:28] <bazhang> UbuntuNoob, if it matches, then burn to cd at lower speed, boot from the cd and do the disk integrity check.
[05:29] <scunizi> Demolitio: don't know how good it is but I found this.. http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysqlcc/
[05:29] <scunizi> Demolitio: actually that's for windows.. :(
[05:29] <Demolitio> hmm.. well, works wit MySQL... just not MS's version :(
[05:30] <Demolitio> yeah... just noticed it;s a win32 binary.
[05:30] <UbuntuNoob> bazhang: i clicked compare and it says the md5 checksums are different
[05:31] <scunizi> Demolitio: round 2.. check this out .. http://www.linux.com/directory/Software/A-2ER-2EM-2ES-3A-Online-multiserver-admin-GUI-for-MySql/details
[05:31] <Victor_T> hey, some one know if VIA fix the driver (or canonical) negociate with VIA for the driver of P4M900 in this decade?
[05:32]  * scunizi could almost hear a pin drop in here tonight
[05:33] <_numbers> ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[05:33] <Demolitio> scunizi: unfortunatly, that's MySQL only, too.. arrgh. I wish I could influence my company to move to that or SQLlite.
[05:34] <UbuntuNoob> my md5 result doesnt match the ones on the ubuntu hash page
[05:34] <umesh> HI all i am not able to use my speaker on ubuntu 10.04 LTS i am using the Mercury MS-440 speakers with P4 machine 1.2GHZ
[05:34] <scunizi> Demolitio: do a little digging on www.google.com/linux .. an alternative search linux focused.
[05:35] <Victor_T> umesh, go to a terminal
[05:35] <kuttan_> hi all
[05:35] <Victor_T> and type sudo alsamixer
[05:36] <Victor_T> you will see a volume control
[05:36] <dublisk> Hi, I modified my /etc/environment file, but when I reboot, the variables are still not set, is this not sourced automatically?
[05:38] <jameswannabe> Hello all
[05:38] <umesh> Victor_T: when i typed sudo alsamixer it shows NO such file or directory
[05:38] <Victor_T> :S
[05:38] <Victor_T> well I am in karmic
[05:39] <Victor_T> try aptitude search alsamixer
[05:39] <Demolitio> scunizi: thanks... arrgh.
[05:39] <Demolitio> heh
[05:39] <jameswannabe> ummm i have a few questions about Ubuntu and Best guess software/hardware
[05:40] <abhijit> !ask | jameswannabe
[05:40] <scunizi> jameswannabe: ask away.. hopefully someone will know your answers
[05:40] <jameswannabe> Thx Ubootu
[05:40] <Demolitio> !ask demolitio
[05:40] <umesh> Victor_T: 1) i get following two files p   alsamixergui                    - graphical soundcard mixer for ALSA soundca 2) p   gnome-alsamixer                 - ALSA sound mixer for GNOME

[05:41] <Fudge> whats the command to change back to using gnome?
[05:41] <scunizi> jameswannabe: ubottu is a bot...
[05:41] <thune3> dublisk: that should work, could you pastebin the file? If a variable is getting set at a later stage (and not appended) it could overwrite what is in there. You can boot a termianl (ctrl-alt-f1) to check setting instead of reboot.
[05:41] <umesh> kuttan_: how i will be able to find that? i am new to ubuntu
[05:41] <timpster> scriptwarlock,  will you be my "personal help bitch"   hahahah it was in the guidelines    how to ask a question
[05:41] <Demolitio> jameswannabe: just ask, we will try to help :D
[05:41] <kuttan_> Fudge: in gdm change session , or put exec gnome-session in .xinitrc ( home dir) 755
[05:42] <dublisk> is there something for ubuntu like fpaste?
 lspci -v >lspci.txt .. pastebin
[05:42] <scunizi> dublisk: what's fpaste do?
[05:42] <abhijit> !pastebinit | dublisk
[05:42] <dublisk> yeah that
[05:42] <scunizi> ok
[05:42] <kuttan_> dublisk there is a nautilus addon , pls search
[05:42] <DIguana> What's the best way to scan a hard disk with Ubuntu? Is there anything more extensive than the routine scanning that comes up every few reboots?
[05:43] <jameswannabe> what do i need to get my Logitech Quick Cam webcam to work with Ubuntu 10 also im running CompiZ on Custom and want more eyecandy (ATI radeon X1650 PCI)
[05:43] <abhijit> dublisk, type sudo apt-get install pastebinit to install it.
[05:43] <scunizi> dublisk: it's a cli tool.. sudo apt-get install pastebinit .. then to paste a text file .. pastebinit <textfile.txt>
[05:43] <kuttan_> sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[05:44] <jameswannabe> what do i need to get my Logitech Quick Cam webcam to work with Ubuntu 10 also im running CompiZ on Custom and want more eyecandy (ATI radeon X1650 PCI)

[05:46] <coyote_> ya kekun ki parle francais?
[05:46] <umesh> kuttan_: output of the above command is asic display modes:

[05:49] <abhijit> how to edit iso image?
[05:49] <rags> so iam not able to debug as to what the problem is.
[05:49] <UbuntuNoob> can anyone recommend a good irc for general computer help?
[05:49] <kuttan_> ubottu: You should do something so that your mesg appears to only offending party. Otherwise you yourself flood the screen
[05:49] <abhijit> UbuntuNoob, xchat
[05:49] <Blue1> albech_: pardon my dumbess, isn't KVM keyboard, video, mouse?
[05:50] <UbuntuNoob> thanks
[05:50] <coyote_> i ask abiut method to add dns in lucid lynx?
[05:50] <albech_> Blue1, yes, but its also a virtual machine manager
[05:50] <Fudge> there is a way you can choose the session manger, session-config or something? it brings up the options like gnome auto gnome manual etc
[05:50] <umesh> kuttan_: i have pasted the file at http://paste.ubuntu.com/481745/
[05:50] <kuttan_> abhijit: how can I ignore mesg from X user in gnome-xchat ..
[05:50] <abhijit> coyote_, have you seen the link given by ubottu?
[05:50] <Blue1> albech_: aah didnt know that one...
[05:50] <dublisk> a .so file on the LD_LIBRARY_PATH should get added to ld's cache after running ldconfig right?
[05:50] <abhijit> kuttan_, /ignore <nick>
[05:51] <kuttan_> abhijit Thanks mate for that
[05:51] <kuttan_>  /ignore ubottu
[05:51] <andrew_708476> It didn't work, I tryed installing tor but O well what can you do
[05:51] <abhijit> kuttan_, without space
[05:51] <albech_> guess i could switch to KVM instead of virtual box, but VB is so convenient and easy to run with.
[05:51] <kuttan_>  /ignoreubottu

[05:59] <abhijit> nirvaana69, wait
[05:59] <thune3> dublisk: ldconfig man page does not indicate that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is used for cache. I assume a uncached library just has to be linked at runtime without the benifit of the cache. Did you get the LD_LIBARAY_PATH variable sorted. These are the files that affect environment for my login (plus any you call): http://paste.ubuntu.com/481748/
[05:59] <kuttan_> umesh: 1st just run : lspci -v >&audio.txt
[06:00] <kuttan_> umesh: then next - pastebinit audio.txt
[06:01] <UbuntuNoob> i made another disk with ubuntu on it and i verified it while burning it and my laptop still wont boot from it. why?
[06:01] <lwizardl> does your laptop support booting from cd's?
[06:01] <nirvaana69> waiting..........
[06:01] <UbuntuNoob> yes i can boot from puppylinux and tinycore
[06:02] <UbuntuNoob> my laptop got a virus and wont boot from the hd anymore but it will boot from other cdsa
[06:02] <abhijit> nirvaana69, first you have a look here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ibus if not understood then ask
[06:02] <UbuntuNoob> cds*
[06:02] <lwizardl> hmm
[06:03] <sacarlson> nirvaana69:  did you ever try google?  took me 10 secounds http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1260793
[06:03] <rww> nirvaana69: the revelation that abhijit has you waiting for is that ibus is not just for Chinese
[06:03] <UbuntuNoob> it sounds like its installing or something but its the same screen i get when it tries to boot from the hd and it doesnt go past the post screen
[06:03] <rww> nirvaana69: also, that https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ibus exists
[06:04] <Ologn> When I go to System -> About Ubuntu, the yelp box that pops up for me in Meerkat does not say File Edit Bookmarks etc. on top but has some weird Unicode characters
[06:04] <umesh> kuttan_: when i ry to use the command pastebinit audio.txt i get the messgae The program 'pastebinit' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[06:04] <umesh> sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[06:04] <Ologn> I wonder if that's just me or if it is broken
 , so do that please
[06:05] <greezmunkey> yelp box...heh
[06:07] <mernilio> Hi all!
[06:08] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: can you hit button (i use esc) right after bios to get a boot option screen? is monitor turning off? (maybe connect to external vga if possible) And be aware that it can take 3+ minutes to boot ubuntu livecd.
[06:08] <umesh> kuttan_: the output of pastebinit audio.txt is http://pastebin.com/RFZNgsbk
[06:08] <Blue1> !cron
[06:09] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: i can get to a boot option screen and i picked bood from cd drive. the screen is not off i can see it lighted and its what happens when my laptop tries to boot from the hd. and when it first loads it loads the purple screen that says ubuntu but then it goes to this dead screen where nothing happebns
[06:09] <mernilio> Black candy! As a white nerd, if you get it.. dont let it go! ZZ Top called it Tush :-)
[06:10] <rww> !ot
[06:10] <mark105> any one using burg?
[06:10] <Ologn> You people with Meerkat - when you go to System -> About Ubuntu, does the window at top  say File/Edit/Go/Bookmarks or is it Unicode gobbeldygook?
[06:11] <rww> Ologn: Maverick discussion in #ubuntu+1, not here.
[06:11] <mernilio> any interracial coples here? And i dont mean linux-windows...
[06:11] <sinurge> mernilio, how is that a topic in #ubuntu
[06:12] <rww> ubottu: ot | mernilio
[06:12] <IdleOne> Ologn: gobblygook and like rww said #ubuntu+1
[06:13] <Blue1> methinks an update is inorder - the !cron lists http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm as a guide - it gets a 404 not found
[06:13] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: at that first purple screen with the two icons at the bottom, you can hit esc, then f6 (i think), then esc again to edit grub line. You might try one of the options listed here: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2010/05/06/ubuntu-10-04-lucid-blank-screen-at-startup-workaround/
[06:13] <rww> !cron

[06:15] <mernilio> rww: i did  not say so
[06:17] <mernilio> I only think that based on one single millinoaire Shuttleworth .. Ubuntu is on a very shaky trip!
[06:17] <sinurge> mernilio, again not a topic for discussion
[06:17] <g0tcha> hey guys, how can i bring a network adapter down in bunut server?
[06:18] <umesh> kuttan_: actualy there are two card one inbuild on mother board and one put externally now the mother board sound card was having some problem so i installed the external one in windows which is working fine there
[06:18] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: i removed quiet splash from the boot line first and it seems to be working. i did not try any of the other options because im not experienced enough to know where to enter them or which graphics card i have because has not been my computer for some time.
[06:18] <rawrlock> Anyone else having webcam issues? I updated my kernel and now v4l does not see dev/video0 and v4l2 cannot identify it
[06:18] <umesh> kuttan_: do i need to do some thing extra
[06:18] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: it also just stopped the install and went back to that screen again -_-
[06:18] <rawrlock> g0tcha, ifconfig <adapter> down
[06:18] <Blue1> g0tcha: ifdown iirc
[06:18] <mernilio> and that his from africa and all that skit, "ubuntu means friendship" .. :-)

[06:22] <nirvaana69> i mean i want to use hindi only for open office and no othert program
[06:23] <abhijit> nirvaana69, which version of ubuntu?
[06:23] <airtonix> !who
[06:23] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: yeah my computer wont boot anymore so i just want to boot ubuntu so i can wipe the hd and install ubuntu on the hd but apparently that wont work either. ive started trying all of those options
[06:23] <umesh> kuttan_: in case of sound preference i get two devices 1) internal Audio Analog stereo and 2) SPC 700NC PC camera Analog Mono
[06:23] <abhijit> nirvaana69, brb in 3 min
[06:23] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: just choose boot first, you can run ubiquity from inside livecd or try again once you get the right settings.
[06:24] <kuttan_> umesh: just type "aplay -l" , w/o quotes
[06:24] <kuttan_> umesh: does YMF24F comes in the output
[06:25] <abhijit> nirvaana69, which version of ubuntu?
[06:25] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: do you have make/model# of computer?
[06:25] <nirvaana69> 9.04
[06:25] <umesh> Kuttan_: card 2: ICH5 [Intel ICH5], device 0: Intel ICH [Intel ICH5]  Subdevices: 1/1  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 2: ICH5 [Intel ICH5], device 4: Intel ICH - IEC958 [Intel ICH5 - IEC958]  Subdevices: 1/1  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
[06:25] <abhijit> nirvaana69, ok
[06:25] <brijithmac> Hi .. Why empathy became  default chat client.. though pidgin is having lot more features ??
[06:26] <Dr_Willis> brijithmac:  install pidgin then.. personally i hate both. :)
[06:26] <abhijit> nirvaana69, open your sources list and add this line there: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ibus-dev/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
[06:26] <kuttan_> umesh: which version of ubuntu are you using
[06:26] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: it is a gateway 3545
[06:26] <umesh> Kuttan_: in case of putput i get only Internal Audio analog Stereo i am using ubuntu 10.04LTS
[06:26] <brijithmac> Dr_Willis:Why you have both .. ?
[06:27] <Dr_Willis> brijithmac:  i dont have both.. I dont use either one. :)
[06:27] <brijithmac> Dr_Willis:then which one you use
[06:27] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: if you want to know my progress, puppylinux and tinycore both boot, but im still working on getting ubuntu to boot
[06:27] <Dr_Willis> brijithmac:   I dont use either one. :)
[06:28] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  thats a good sign then. Could be some weird quirky issue with plymouth and the 10.04 release.  Ive seen that happen a lot. The altermative cd might let you install.
[06:28] <brijithmac> Dr_Willis:do you use any other chat client ?
[06:28] <Dr_Willis> brijithmac:  i hang on IRC - using WeeChat.. thats it for my 'chat' clients.
[06:29] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: dun, dun, daaahhhh: Intel® 855GM ! doh. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes
[06:29] <brijithmac> Dr_Willis: ok .
[06:29] <abhijit> nirvaana69, done?
[06:29] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: i think it could be i think im going to download an older version of ubuntu and see if i can run that because i think thats better that running puppylinux, at least i think so for no reason at all lol
[06:30] <KE1HA> UbuntuNoob:  you could also look into xubuntu, it runs on my d400 i855.
[06:30] <yulandi> hellow..
[06:30] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  The big change in 10.04 that causes a LOT of issues is plymouth.   You may want to try an alternetive-installer cd..
[06:30] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  its possible other ubuntu variants may also have the same plymouth issue with your system.
[06:30] <TiK> I hate plymouth
[06:30] <brijithmac> Hi all, is any one using BSNL Evdo with ubuntu ?
[06:30] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  what is your video card anyway?
[06:31] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: try i915.modeset=1 , you will need a more permanent solution as described on Lucidi8xxFreezes
[06:31] <thune3> Dr_Willis: UbuntuNoob has Intel® 855GM
[06:31] <nirvaana69> will this make me write hindi in open office or every where
[06:31] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: that was the first one i tried, but to no avail
[06:31] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  see what thune3  says.. proberly some boot option that may get it working.   my one intel machine is an AA0
[06:32] <hmmmm> whoa
[06:32] <hmmmm> for 1.3k users it's kinda quiet :p
[06:32] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: i will try it again though
[06:33] <Vakman> hmmmm I agree.
[06:33] <hmmmm> say i wanted to set up a school computer lab with ubuntu. what could i use to remotely administrate (i.e. install updates, install applications, disk quotas, etc. en masse) them all?
[06:33] <Andorin> Neither my flash drive nor my portable hard drive are auto-mounting on my desktop anymore. Both still work on my laptop (both with Lucid). What's happened?
[06:33] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: if this doesnt work then ill go find an older version of ubuntu i suppose
[06:34] <kuttan_> umesh: type " lsmod |grep snd-ymfpci"
[06:34] <UbuntuNoob> for now i think i just want to find a way to boot something and wipe my hd and then from there ill work on installing something else, probably a version of ubuntu
[06:34] <kuttan_> umesh : is this module loaded ?
[06:34] <umesh> Kuttan_: one inute let me try
[06:35] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: this attempt seems to be going a lot further than the previous ones
[06:35] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: i would try xforcevesa as a last ditch, if this one fails.
[06:36] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: whoa a desktop. who knew that came with ubuntu load disk
[06:36] <UbuntuNoob> lol
[06:36] <UbuntuNoob> i win
[06:36] <UbuntuNoob> well, i guess you win in reality
[06:37] <umesh> kuttan_: when i type the command lsmod |grep snd-ymfpci i do not get any output
[06:37] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: i would like to see the output of "lspci | grep VGA", just to confirm chipset
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  from what i gather from the news/sites - Intel sort of outsourced some of their chipsets to anotehr company. That company wrote the drivers and stuff for intel.. but Intel cant put the drivers under the GPL for Linux because the other company has the rights.. (seems like an Intel Lawyer dropped the ball) :) (tats how i hear the story at least)
[06:37] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: how do i do that?
[06:37] <abhijit> he let. :(
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  so the whold fiasco with some chipsets is due to  the legal issues. :(
[06:38] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: wow lol of course something that trivial happens to me right?
[06:38] <hmmmm> anybody??
[06:39] <Andorin> Guys, my USB drives are not automounting on one of my computers now. What's the usual cause for this?
[06:39] <bazhang> !automate | hmmmm
[06:39] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  its even worse for the 'meego' and some other devices that are using the chipsets affected  'Intel cant ship their own drivers' --->   http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?t=24663
[06:40] <hmmmm> not so much automation as remote administration
[06:40] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: Applications->Accessories->Terminal type or paste: lspci | grep VGA  and hit enter.
[06:40] <hmmmm> mass administration rather
[06:40] <hmmmm> hm
[06:40] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: hahahaha they need to get on top of it
[06:40] <abhijit> hmmmm, do you mean ubuntu server?
[06:41] <tortoise7> hi folks, a pointer please, as to the best method of moving LARGE files from a hfs/hfsplus drive onto the ubuntu machine.
[06:41] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: Intel 82852/855GM
[06:41] <tortoise7> no floppy, no dvd/cd....no bluetooth
[06:42] <UbuntuNoob> also quick question, how do i wipe my hard drive from ubuntu so i can get rid of that nasty virus, install ubuntu to my hd, and finally use this laptop again
[06:42] <umesh> kuttan_: u there?
[06:42] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: 8xx intel chipsets and 10.04 are a bad combo! I'm not sure I would run 10.04 if I had one of those chipsets. There are potential fixes/workarounds in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes if you choose to install.
[06:42] <abhijit> UbuntuNoob, you can just format hdd? and then install ubutnu?
[06:43] <hmmmm> nevermind guys
[06:43] <hmmmm> one more question, is there anything like deep freeze for ubuntu?
[06:44] <UbuntuNoob_> thune3: ......ok apparently my connection was reset?
[06:44] <abhijit> hmmmm, wait
[06:44] <UbuntuNoob_> thune3: also what is a good alternative?
[06:44] <KE1HA> tortoise7:  is the hfsplus drive going to be installed on the ubuntu machine, or do you need to remote access it?
[06:45] <umesh> Hi all i having some problem with my sound card device the details of he system are at http://pastebin.com/RFZNgsbk please any one can help me in this the sound card is working properly on windows

[06:45] <hmmmm> lol :) no
[06:46] <hmmmm> thanks anyway

[06:48] <tortoise7> KE1HA, the hfsplus is an external Tbyte drive.... ubuntu claims it is nearing failure if i access it from ubuntu.... when it is hooked to the imac g5 machine it shows no failure modes....for now i would like remote access.... eventually reformatting it to ext4      thoughts?
[06:48] <hmmmm> hmm
[06:48] <UbuntuNoob> my connection kept getting reset >:(
[06:48] <hmmmm> yeah, that's somewhat helpful
[06:48] <abhijit> :)
[06:48] <thune3> UbuntuNoob_: the fixes might work for you "Install the 855gm PPA and the patched kernel modules" section of above seems to work, and there are other options. Hopefully, you just need to get by until Maverick.
[06:49] <hmmmm> but seriously
[06:49] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: i probably wont install 10.04 if you dont recommend it
[06:49] <hmmmm> deep freeze? anything like it?
[06:49] <abhijit> hmmmm, i dont know what is deep freeze?
[06:49] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: what kind of alternative os should i look at, perhaps an older version of ubuntu?
[06:49] <kuttan_> umesh: Your card is not in the supported list, yet why dont you go thro these links thoroughly https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSound https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsSoundCards   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound

[06:50] <psycho_oreos> its a program for windows that would not restore the computer to its original state regardless of whatever the user changes

[06:50] <hmmmm> and the best part about it is that the user is able to have an administrator account
[06:50] <aprilhare> hello. i am attempting to backup a ntfs partition using partimage. it keeps on saying ntfs support is experimental, then complains of segmentation fault - and fails. how do I backup my partition?
[06:50] <hmmmm> so they can install applications and use devices without any problems
[06:50] <KE1HA> tortoise7:  for remoting, just SSH to it, and rzync, curl, wget whatever is supported. Here's an article about mounting hfsplus you may find useful: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/mounting-hfs-volumes-under-linux-521189/
[06:50] <hmmmm> and that'd be great if they could temporarily install their own packages and what ever if they need or want to
[06:50] <adminuser> aprilhare, look into clonezilla
[06:51] <aprilhare> ty
[06:51] <abhijit> hmmmm, #ubuntu-server people may know something.

[06:51] <hmmmm> http://www.faronics.com/en/Products/DeepFreeze/DeepFreezeLinuxCorporate.aspx
[06:51] <umesh> Kuttan_: is that mean i will have to change the sound card for ubuntu?
[06:51] <hmmmm> there's a linux version
[06:52] <hmmmm> although it's not foss, so there's some licensing there
[06:52] <abhijit> hmmmm, then? use it?
[06:52] <KE1HA> tortoise7:  welcome.
[06:52] <hmmmm> well, it'd be great to get away with totally free software
[06:52] <hmmmm> amazing flexibility
[06:52] <kuttan_> umesh: No , but it may mean you may have to spend some more time to mae it work
[06:52] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: there are a lot of potential fixes that have popped up (as outlined in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes). there was a time 2-3 months ago where there were not good solutions. It's just a bit of a pain.
[06:52] <kuttan_> umesh, btw what is the make of your card

[06:53] <hmmmm> and use all foss software
[06:53] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: well im not too sure considering i dont really have any clure about what im doing, but if you think its an option, ill probably install 10.04 now, because i have the disk ready to go
[06:53] <hmmmm> sure it might seem like it's more work but shit, i'll do that
[06:53] <abhijit> hmmmm, server people know more.

[06:58] <abhijit> kuttan_, same. xchat :)
[06:59] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: you can always bail later if it doesn't work out, just be aware you *will* need to perform workarounds and make changes from Lucidi8xxFreezes
[06:59] <pietime> how do you change your buffer in samba?
[07:00] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: how bad will the workarounds be? things relatively simple that a guy who doesnt kno0w what hes doing (3g me) would be able to figure out or stuff that i should leave to the pros and i should find a different linux os?
[07:00] <umesh> Kutan_: the details are at http://paste.ubuntu.com/481763/
[07:00] <kjoz> Does anyone know a good World Clock Desktop Widget?
[07:00] <Sanus> hallo?
[07:01] <andres_> hello
[07:01] <abhijit> kjoz, you can search in software cener?
[07:01] <abhijit> !hi | Sanus
[07:01] <Sanus> kjoz, didja try google?
[07:01] <kuttan_> abhijit: thanks mate , gr8 pointers..
[07:01] <abhijit> kuttan_, yah welcome :)
[07:01] <kjoz> Ya tried.. Still searching.. Was hoping someone new a good one at the top of their heads
[07:01] <Sanus> er, abhijit did i break a guidline?
[07:01] <abhijit> Sanus, no
[07:02] <abhijit> kjoz, there is one gworldclock
[07:02] <vegombrei> i need to gedit the wvdial.conf file and ubuntu wont let me saying i dont have permission, i went to users and made the user administrator but it still wont let me edit that file .. is there a way to access root or SU?
[07:02] <KE1HA> pietime:  you on about the sbd / rcv buffers ?
[07:02] <Sanus> okay...  abhijit, do you have about three seconds to help me with somethin?
[07:03] <Weed37> KE1HA, dude thank you very much exactly what i was looking for ~+ 10 respect to  you m8
[07:03] <abhijit> vegombrei, use gksudo gedit <pathtofile>
[07:03] <abhijit> Sanus, you just ask in general. if i or anyone knows then we wll answer.
[07:03] <pietime> KE1HA, what's that?
[07:03] <Sanus> Can i still access the PSN and play games online if i put ubuntu on my ps3?
[07:03] <TiK> doubt it
[07:03] <Weed37> no u cant
[07:03] <TiK> sanus: doubt it
[07:03] <abhijit> !ps3 | Sanus
[07:04] <Weed37> not if its on latest fw
[07:04] <KE1HA> Weed37:  no probs glad to help. pietime you wanted to increase your send / receive buffers in samba?
[07:04] <abhijit> Sanus, i think you should try #ubuntu-ps3
[07:04] <abhijit> :(
[07:04] <pietime> KE1HA, yea
[07:04] <MACscr> i have like 15 terminal windows open to different servers. Is there a way to save that list so they reopen when i reboot, etc?
[07:04] <MACscr> i have ssh keys setup for all of them
[07:05] <TiK> MACscr: hmmm
[07:05] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: also im wondering if i should create 2 partitions of my hard drive, and run ubuntu on one and windows on the other, just because im familiar with windows and its easy enough for me.
[07:05] <abhijit> Sanus, i think you should try #ubuntu-ps3
[07:05] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: it's not too hard. boot with workaround you already used, and paste the first two lines in block from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes#GTT%20Incoherency%20Patch, reboot without workaround and paste the second set of blocked lines, and reboot.
[07:05] <Sanus> i did
[07:06] <carbonunit> im a big dummy face and I need to mux an ac3 audio file into a mp4 container with some avc video...  can anyone help me?
[07:06] <Sanus> noone is there
[07:06] <Weed37> what fw is your ps3 on
[07:06] <KE1HA> pietime:  have a look at SO_SNDBUF and SO_RCVBUF [ http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBIQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Foreilly.com%2Fcatalog%2Fsamba%2Fchapter%2Fbook%2Fappb.pdf&rct=j&q=Samba%20change%20buffer&ei=17xwTNjuA8mRnwex0JSGCA&usg=AFQjCNHIp7bzQQBCDRVqPdNZTLxkjJ6TkA&cad=rja ]
[07:06] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: dual boot makes sense to me
[07:06] <carbonunit> Sanus if you have upgraded your firmware to the latest you cannot install a second operating system
[07:06] <Weed37> sanus what fw is ur ps3 using if it is latest u cant run linux
[07:07] <Sanus> 3.4 something?
[07:07] <Weed37> u cant
[07:07] <carbonunit> nope
[07:07] <carbonunit> you can't
[07:07] <Sanus> why not?
[07:07] <Weed37> just wait for ps3jb
[07:07] <abhijit> !who | Weed37
[07:07] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: how do i create a partition from inside ubuntu before i install it to my hard drive?
[07:07] <Weed37> use gparted
[07:08] <adalal> !gparted | UbuntuNoob
[07:08] <carbonunit> Sanus because sony got rid of that
[07:08] <Weed37> ^^^
[07:08] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: the fix of course would be done *after* you installed. ^^^ but you should just create your partitions from livecd before installing.
[07:08] <Weed37> carbonunit, have u heard about this new exploit for ps3 its called psjb
[07:09] <carbonunit> i have now
[07:09] <MACscr> is it normal for me to have to click on the top part of a window to switch to it? I swear i used to be able to click anywhere in the window
[07:09] <carbonunit> LOL
[07:09] <Weed37> lol read it up m8 see what u think
[07:09] <pietime> KE1HA, thats some 300 page book
[07:09] <badai> Howdy all.
[07:09] <Weed37> looking like it is the real deal
[07:09] <Weed37> but still to be confirmed
[07:10] <KE1HA> pietime:  yes, but you only need a small portion of it :-)
[07:10] <pietime> what porition
[07:10] <badai> any NVidia owners here?
[07:10] <umesh> kuttan_ any help on sound card
[07:11] <carbonunit> hmmmmm it's a jailbreak op
[07:11] <carbonunit> I have nvidia badai
[07:11] <thune3> UbuntuNoob: i gotta sleep. good luck.
[07:11] <abhijit> !nvidia | badai
[07:11] <UbuntuNoob> thune3: thanks for all of your help! youre the man
[07:12] <mas_> quien me transfiere a un canal en español
[07:12] <mas_> ??
[07:12] <abhijit> !es | mas_
[07:12] <Weed37> yeah carbonunit it is cant wait to see if it realy does what it says
[07:13] <carbonunit> HEYZEUS!  They want quite a bit for it don't they
[07:13] <KE1HA> pietime:  actually, its only 17 pages though, not 300.
[07:13] <sweb> my numkeys doese not work
[07:13] <sweb> ?
[07:13] <pietime> hell
[07:13] <duckx0r> for some reason when I push ctrl-alt-f2 i get an all black screen with some random colored dots at the top of the screen. is there any way to find out what's wrong?
[07:13] <pietime> why should it be 17
[07:14] <pietime> sweb, try numlock
[07:14] <umesh> hi any help on sound card please i have yamaha sound card which is not working on Ubuntu 10.04LTS the hardware deails are at http://paste.ubuntu.com/481763/
[07:14] <sweb> pietime, are you kidding. both of style not work. no numbers no arrows and home page up and etc...
[07:15] <carbonunit> Anyone here know about muxers?
[07:15] <carbonunit> pretty please?
[07:15] <carbonunit> I'll say nice things about you
[07:15] <KE1HA> pietime:  merely increasing the buffers does not always increase overall speed, you need to test files sizes against buffers to determine the optimum buffer settings.
[07:15] <sweb> wwwwwwwwwwwwwww
[07:17] <KE1HA> pietime:  This page explains it a bit more: https://calomel.org/samba_optimize.html
[07:17] <ilovefairuz> !details | carbonunit
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> duckx0r:  sounds like a typical Framebuffer fighting with the video card ddrivers issue. I see it with some systems all the time. You could try disabling the framebuffer for the consoles. DO any of the consoles work?
[07:18] <carbonunit> I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and I am looking for a way to mux an AC3 audio file into an mp4 video file
[07:18] <carbonunit> either a tutorial or a piece of software
[07:18] <duckx0r> Dr_Willis, no, they don't
[07:18] <UbuntuNoob> how do i run gparted on ubuntu to create a partition of my hard drive?
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> carbonunit:  your use of the term mux - is ... odd...  use ffmpeg, or mencover to join  the 2 - is one way
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> duckx0r:  and yoru video card is what?
[07:18] <carbonunit> mux is odd?
[07:18] <carbonunit> really?
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> carbonunit:  yes.
[07:19] <carbonunit> ok
[07:19] <duckx0r> Dr_Willis, ATI, however it seems to be working fine in X with 3d acceleration and all
[07:19] <Dr_Willis> mencoder, ffmpeg.
[07:19] <umesh> hi help needed on sound card i have yamaha sound card which is not working on Ubuntu 10.04LTS the hardware deails are at http://paste.ubuntu.com/481763/
[07:19] <carbonunit> thanks Doc
[07:19] <Dr_Willis> duckx0r:  You could try blacklisting the framebuffer module. that might   get it to behave.
[07:19] <xangua> how can i create a usb start disk with multiple distros on it¿
[07:19] <callmechewy> This may be a stupid question...but I haven't been able to find a good answer online - What makes advantages does linux have over Windows?
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> xangua:  thers some sites with scripts that do that automatically
[07:20] <callmechewy> just wondering how much effort I should put into it to see if I like it
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> xangua:  check my links at http://delicious.com/dr_willis
[07:20] <carbonunit> callmechewy: It's free
[07:20] <carbonunit> :0)
[07:20] <callmechewy> lol
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> callmechewy:  free to install on 1 or 10000 pc's and no virus problems
[07:20] <xangua> thanks Dr_Willis
[07:20] <carbonunit> no virus problems
[07:20] <callmechewy> well, every OS has virus problems
[07:20] <callmechewy> even linux
[07:20] <carbonunit> pain in the ass learning curve
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> xangua:  i forget the name of the script. but ive used them in teh past
[07:20] <carbonunit> I haven't had a virus problem yet
[07:20] <duckx0r> Dr_Willis, not sure I know how to do that...
[07:21] <carbonunit> been running for 4 years
[07:21] <Dr_Willis> callmechewy:  i cant recall seeing one in  recent history..
[07:21] <UbuntuNoob> callmechewy: im making the switch right now
[07:21] <hippiekiller81> Does anyone know how to resolve the bug of Grub2 finding Windows 7 twice? Found Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/sda2  Found Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/sda3
[07:21] <callmechewy> Well, I haven't had a virus in 5 years on windows either
[07:21] <callmechewy> that doesn't mean there's no viruses out there
[07:21] <KE1HA> xangua:  see if this helps: http://aronzak.wordpress.com/2008/09/06/multiple-linux-distros-on-one-usb-drive-msramdmp/
[07:21] <callmechewy> i'm just smarter than your average worm
[07:21] <Dr_Willis> Windows also has a pain learnign curve.. but  you have allready learned it..
[07:21] <UbuntuNoob> callmechewy: stay on top of your game then i hadnt either and i got one yesterday because i got sloppy
[07:21] <callmechewy> that's true
[07:21] <carbonunit> they don't write viruses for linux alot
[07:21] <carbonunit> because it's harder to propagate
[07:22] <carbonunit> not as many machines out in the wild
[07:22] <Dr_Willis> Friend at work learned to watch out for even 'legimate' web sites..
[07:22] <callmechewy> yeah, it's just like Apples
[07:22] <callmechewy> there's not much of a market for viruses vs windows
[07:22] <callmechewy> but there are viruses out there
[07:22] <carbonunit> ok
[07:22] <maco> callmechewy: not recently
[07:22] <UbuntuNoob> how to i wipe my hard drive in ubuntu
[07:22] <maco> callmechewy: hasnt been one in the wild for a couple years
[07:22] <carbonunit> use the setup disc
[07:23] <umesh> hi any help on sound card please i have yamaha sound card which is not working on Ubuntu 10.04LTS the hardware deails are at http://paste.ubuntu.com/481763/
[07:23] <Dr_Willis> Is an exploit that affects 1 disrto's version of One service.. truely a 'linux' virus :)
[07:23] <KE1HA> xangua:  another method: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/boot-multiple-iso-from-usb-multiboot-usb/
[07:23] <Dr_Willis> But the press likes to mess up all these terms.
[07:23] <maco> note that i do regard viruses as a specific type of malware, not as an umbrella term though
[07:23] <sinistrad> callmechewy, The reason you don't hear about virii on linux is that it's a bit pointless to write them. The filesystem permissions won't allow a normal user to run the virus in a way that can damage the system, take over it, etc. About the only thing it would be able to do is trash a home directory.
[07:23] <xangua> KE1HA: the bad thing about that last one is that i need windows, or do you think it will work with wine¿
[07:23] <maco> sinistrad: nice attempt at pretending to know latin, but it's viruses
[07:23] <Dr_Willis> sinistrad:  and the users are good enough at doing that :)
[07:24] <carbonunit> The other advantages is almost 100% of the software is free
[07:24] <KE1HA> xangua:  I dint read it fully.
[07:24] <carbonunit> Still... you better get used to learning your terminal
[07:24] <hippiekiller81> Does anyone know how to resolve the bug of Grub2 finding Windows 7 twice? Found Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/sda2  Found Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/sda3
[07:24] <Dr_Willis> hippiekiller81:  one is propberly your 'restore' partitiion so its not really a bug
[07:24] <sinistrad> Maco, thanks for the lesson. I've heard it both ways over the past few decades
[07:25] <carbonunit> It;s your restore partition
[07:25] <carbonunit> what the Doc said
[07:25] <maco> sinistrad: the dictionary wins ;-)
[07:25] <KE1HA> xangua:  it just says FAT32  .. dont see where windows is involved.
[07:25] <Dr_Willis> I got a new laptop - and i cant even figure out HOW to boot its restore partition..
[07:25] <sinistrad> maco, =)
[07:25] <Dr_Willis> but grub2 lets me boot it at least. :)
[07:25] <xangua> Run MultiBootISOs-USB-Creator-v2.1.2.exe following the onscreen instructions < says KE1HA
[07:25] <maco> callmechewy: if you want an overview of linux security aimed at normal folks, have a look here http://www.slideshare.net/macoafi/security-4484394
[07:26] <hippiekiller81> Thats what I thought but selecting either one of them takes me into Win7
[07:26] <hippiekiller81> Now I just need to find out how to remove one. I
[07:26] <hippiekiller81> I'm ocd and it bothers me to hell
[07:26] <KE1HA> xangua:  you mean the install, sri, though you men a windows OS, I dont see why it wouldn't work. Try, can't hurt.
[07:26] <Dr_Willis> hippiekiller81: learn to get over it..
[07:27] <Dr_Willis> hippiekiller81:  and red teh grub wiki pages/docs/ grub2 guide in the forums :) you edit 2 files.
[07:27] <Dr_Willis> !grub2
[07:27] <KE1HA> xangua:  10.04 is supported too :-)
[07:28] <FavoriteSquirrel> !shortcuts
[07:28] <hippiekiller81> Thanks. Thats what I've been reading for the past 2 hours. Nothing mentioned about multiple windows 7 options. Thats why i'm here
[07:28] <hippiekiller81> thanks
[07:28] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: how do i format my hard drive from ubuntu
[07:28] <UbuntuNoob> ?
[07:28] <FavoriteSquirrel> sorry wish i could help you
[07:28] <abhijit> !gparted | UbuntuNoob
[07:28] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  you format a 'filesystem'  with the 'mkfs' command.. You partition a drive with fdisk into filesystems. (or gparted, or other tools)
[07:29] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  gparted can do it all :)
[07:29] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: i partitioned it into 2 partitions but did that wipe them? if not how to i make gparted wipe them
[07:30] <Dr_Willis> hippiekiller81:  personally i copy the 'stanzas' for the windows setup  from /boot/grub/grub.cfg to /etc/grub.d/40_custom   edit them how i want.. then disable the /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober script
[07:30] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  if you repartition and reformat.. they are whiped..
[07:30] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  unless you want to go to extremes..
[07:30] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  for a new install you may want a / parittion, a /home parittion and a swap partition
[07:31] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: im not sure how extreme is necessary, all i want to do is make sure that virus is gone.
[07:31] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  if you formated its gone.
[07:31] <carbonunit> Yeah... Formatiing = Gone
[07:31] <carbonunit> all gone
[07:31] <carbonunit> heheheehehe
[07:31] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: honestly i have no idea what im doing all lol i did was delete everything there and create 2 partitions
[07:32] <FavoriteSquirrel> NOT THE GOAL
[07:32] <FavoriteSquirrel> sorry
[07:32] <FavoriteSquirrel> -caps
[07:32] <FloodBot3> FavoriteSquirrel: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:32] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuNoob:  the automated insaller cant auto partiion and format the 'whole drive'  and you dont have to worry about it
[07:32] <Dr_Willis> err 'can auto partition' :) not cant...
[07:32] <carbonunit> I would just run the auto installer
[07:32] <carbonunit> Doc is thinking ahead of me
[07:32] <carbonunit> i give up
[07:34] <FavoriteSquirrel> lol
[07:36] <UbuntuNoob_> my connection keeps getting reset
[07:36] <UbuntuNoob_> is it ok that they are both an ext2?
[07:36] <carbonunit> I would wipe the disc Noob

[07:52] <IdleOne> EbanSoul: I would also suggest you read the xchat FAQ at xchat.org
[07:53] <SwedeMike> Guest74743: I'd have to google to find it, I think you can do the same.
[07:53] <Guest74743> Maco - Apparently, empathy keep getting disconnected every now n then...:(
[07:53] <rockhopper> Is the channel quite or its my internet lag?

[07:57] <Guest21386> hi I have question related to metacity crashing - I have downloaded a latest build kernel, and I want to know how to use - having already run sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[07:57] <abhijit> kuttan_, dont know.

[08:01] <Kahlua1> Does anybody know a easy and lightweight editor in ubuntu to handle screenshots other than openoffice???
[08:01] <metamemetics> is there a version\mod of the ambiance theme that displays properly when the main taskbar is left-oriented? I have a widescreen monitor so I always stick taskbars on the left instead of top
[08:02] <walker> I have a router, I am dual booting(Ubuntu v.lucid 10.4, Windows 7), wireless works in Windows but not in Ubuntu. Network manager shows no wireless networks, it worked earlier today though, and i know beyond a doubt that there are wireless networks in my vicinity, and my other laptop running windows runs without mishap. This has been a problem for the past few days, i've scoured the web to no avail. Help please?
[08:02] <flyguy> hi
[08:03] <flyguy> is there a way to make my ubuntu partition smaller so i can use it for windows?
[08:03] <FavoriteSquirrel> walker you might want to try a more generic wifi channel?
[08:04] <Newa> walker: what machine are you running on?
[08:04] <walker> FavoriteSquirrel please elaborate?
[08:04] <vegombrei> hi i need some help ... i just did a new install of the netbook edition on my sony vaio .. had a few issues but finally got it running .. i need to know if there's anything i need to update etc .. eg, apt-get or repositories like medibuntu etc .. i forgot most of the commands could someone help me out with this to get my pc upto speed
[08:05] <Newa> I got one such problem fixed by installing the correct closed wireless driver from system - administration - hardware drivers
[08:05] <FavoriteSquirrel> you running drweb?
[08:05] <FavoriteSquirrel> nuke the site from orbit
[08:05] <Newa> my laptop was then connected to the wired network so it could fetch the wireless drivers
[08:05] <FavoriteSquirrel> its the only way to be sure
[08:05] <FavoriteSquirrel> jk dr web is great
[08:06] <Newa> vegombrei: this has medibuntu install and others in a dialog fashion, so you don't have to remember commands: http://perfectbuntu.category5.tv/
[08:07] <walker> Newa presario c700, laptop, Atheros 5000 network adapter
[08:07] <vegombrei> Newa: cool thanks ill look into it asap
[08:09] <KE1HA> vega:  here's another post install script, does allot of stuff for you, and you can select what you want: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20100820/maverick-desktop-amd64.iso.zsync
[08:10] <KE1HA> SRI wrong Link: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/04/what-to-do-after-fresh-ubuntu-install.html
[08:10] <RobertSaganek_> hey does anyone know how to run blenders rendering threw the termanal
[08:10] <Newa> walker: if you type lsmod | grep ath5k from the terminal, do you get any lines?
[08:11] <FavoriteSquirrel> damn your links all do tht lol
[08:11] <RobertSaganek_> no newa
[08:11] <RobertSaganek_> hey does anyone know how to run blenders rendering threw the termanal
[08:12] <KE1HA> Yeah, Im doing updates on mav, SRI abt that.
[08:12] <RobertSaganek_> hey does anyone know how to run blenders rendering threw the termanal
[08:12] <walker> Newa: I will try, also, if it matters i noticed through ifconfig that my link encap: is ethernet for my wlan, is that bad or normal? p.s i'm connected via wired, which works fine
[08:13] <ops> pk
[08:14] <Newa> walker: you'll want to check iwconfig as well
[08:14] <Newa> the ethernet encapsulation sounds normal to me
[08:15] <walker> Newa: yes, i got back some red ath5k's, and did a iwconfig already, what do you want from that?
[08:15] <Newa> that your card is in "infrastructure" mode
[08:16] <walker> Newa: , no, managed
[08:16] <Newa> that's good too
[08:16] <FavoriteSquirrel> lol but
[08:16] <Flannel> Newa: Please don't recommend that script here (or anywhere, for that matter).  It's dangerous and technically very unsound.  Thanks.
[08:17] <rxd> anyone wants to see my custom ubuntu?
[08:17] <walker> Newa: haha, shucks. The fixable kind of not good?
[08:17] <rxd> noone thanks hehe :)
[08:18] <walker> Newa: oops, misread. I take that last statement back. Next step?
[08:19] <Newa> walker: reading though here, you might want to look too: http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/ath5k
[08:21] <Newa> Flannel: hmm? it does pretty much the same thing as KE1HA's link, and the fellow hosts a known technology show providing help for ubuntu, among other things
[08:22] <Flannel> Newa: It's dangerous, does things in stupid ways, and on top of that, tracks usernames and hostnames of everyone who uses it (and every time it's used).
[08:22] <MuNg> i am having trouble running gparted i get this message Failed to run /usr/sbin/gparted as user root.
[08:22] <MuNg> Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file, can anyone help
[08:22] <FavoriteSquirrel> lol
[08:22] <FavoriteSquirrel> yeah ive been running as a free shell for weeks now
[08:22] <FavoriteSquirrel> oh well found the source yaddayadda
[08:23] <Newa> Flannel: ok. but the ubuntu start script should be fine?
[08:24] <Flannel> Newa: Which ubuntu start script?
[08:24] <Newa> the one mentioned after my link: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/04/what-to-do-after-fresh-ubuntu-install.html
[08:24] <andrew_708476> does anyone get slow internet on Ubuntu
[08:24] <rxd> sure noone wants to see my custom ubuntu?
[08:25] <rww> rxd: try #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:25] <KE1HA> Here Flannel http://www.webupd8.org/2010/04/what-to-do-after-fresh-ubuntu-install.html   the script is toard the bottom. He tells you to review the code before running, as one should do.
[08:25] <rww> Newa: not particularly, no
[08:25] <rxd> rww: ok official
[08:26] <rww> Newa: as a general rule, script authors that aren't competent enough to know why "sudo apt-get install -y --force-yes" is a bad idea should be avoided
[08:26] <maco> ugh...it determines username from $HOME instead of $USER
[08:27] <maco> (they dont have to match)
[08:27] <rww> I imagine there's a whole host of fun in there, I just googled for --force-yes.
[08:27] <rww> s/googled/searched/
[08:27]  * rww applies trademarkbleach to brain
[08:27] <Flannel> rww: We're onto next script now, by the way.
[08:27] <rww> Flannel: I'm aware
[08:28] <rww> Flannel: they both do it.
[08:28] <Flannel> rww: Ah, I hadn't gotten that far yet
[08:28] <maco> yeah
[08:29] <rww> rxd: #ubuntu is for Ubuntu support. "Look at my screenshot" is not Ubuntu support. Therefore, it doesn't belong here. It does, however, fit #ubuntu-offtopic, hence me pointing you there.
[08:30] <onats> hi everyone
[08:30] <onats> anyone know how to setup RAID 1 on a desktop?
[08:30] <onats> i have 2 fresh 500GB HDDs and I can't install 10.04
[08:30] <soreau> ! raid
[08:31] <tarv> the clock in xubuntu live is greyed out.  how can i set it?  i've updated the system time already.
[08:31] <walker_> Newa: I read through that page, I did not really fully understand the whole thing, but the bit titled "Eliminating `ath5k: unsupported jumbo` bug" was of particular interest because the net adapter used in the example is my network adapter.
[08:31] <maco> Newa: that one also looks really nasty... does questionably legal things like autoaccepting a proprietary license without first displaying it to the user too
[08:31] <robertzaccour> hey yall
[08:32] <robertzaccour> can i send a video file with pidgin to another user using yahoo or skype?
[08:32] <TiK> heh
[08:32] <TiK> why not jus use skype?
[08:32] <TiK> just*
[08:33] <maco> !pm | MuNg
[08:34] <robertzaccour> TiK, I don't know if skype or yahoo have file size limits. if skype has limits i'm down to trying yahoo to see
[08:34] <robertzaccour> TiK, thats why i mentioned yahoo
[08:34] <TiK> why not just run an apache2 server and give  them a weblink?
[08:35] <walker_> Newa: And thanks for your help so far.
[08:35] <robertzaccour> TiK, i don't know nothin about that stuff
[08:35] <TiK> robertzaccour: sudo apt-get apache2
[08:35] <robertzaccour> TiK, i'm basically just a bit more than a regular end user lol
[08:35] <robertzaccour> TiK, how does it work?
[08:35] <TiK> put the files in /var/www
[08:35] <tarv> opera has a built in file server that is very easy to use.
[08:36] <robertzaccour> TiK, i'm already confused lol sorry
[08:36] <TiK> it installs a webserver on your machine
[08:36]  * prince_jammys giggles.
[08:36] <UbuntuNoob> hey i need a decent amount of help. i just installed ubuntu from a cd and i have an intel 855 video card i believe and there was some error starting the disk where i had to press a button and then enter i915.modeset=1 under some sort of command line and it would launch, but after i installed it there wasnt a way to enter that line before it tried to start and now my comp crashes every time...
[08:36] <UbuntuNoob> ...it tries to start from the hard drive
[08:36] <robertzaccour> tarv, how do ya use it?
[08:36] <TiK> robertzaccour: you don't know apt-get ?
[08:36] <robertzaccour> TiK, yes i do
[08:36] <tarv> do you have opera already?
[08:36] <rww> python -m SimpleHTTPServer
[08:36] <rww> I win.
[08:36] <robertzaccour> tarv, no but i can get it
[08:36] <TiK> robertzaccour: apache2 s what you want then put the files in /var/www
[08:37] <robertzaccour> TiK, i don't know what you mean by put the files in /var/www
[08:37] <tarv> robertzaccour, grab it and come back
[08:37] <TiK> robertzaccour: the files you want too send...
[08:37] <maco> robertzaccour: /var/www is a directory...
[08:37] <prince_jammys> then configure apache, make sure your firewall is set up, dodge any attacks, and you're set.
[08:38] <UbuntuNoob> Dr_Willis: if you happen to be here could you help by any chance?
[08:38] <prince_jammys> the easiest way of getting a file to somebody.
[08:38] <robertzaccour> tarv, does FF have that kind of extension?
[08:38] <Guest21386> hi which forum for metacity/ati problem
[08:38] <TiK> apache2 needs no real cofig you just have to forward  port and keep an eye on /var/log/apache2/access.log or whatever it is
[08:38] <prince_jammys> yeah, whatever.
[08:38] <tarv> robertzaccour, not that i know of in ff.  if you try opera, look for the 'unite' features.  it's very simple.
[08:39] <robertzaccour> opera ain't in the repos. off to their website brb
[08:40] <Newa> walker_: trying to look at their bug list - I suppose you don't have an error message to use with searching, like anything from dmesg
[08:40] <UbuntuNoob> anyone have advice?
[08:41] <vegombrei> hey guys how do i specify keyrings?
[08:41] <rww> installing opera to send files to someone is kinda like buying a sheep to cut your grass
[08:41] <Guest21386> ubuntuone to send files
[08:41] <tarv> question about xubuntu from usb:  does the bios need to support boot from usb or is that a function of the usb drive?
[08:41] <maco> tarv: bios
[08:41] <UbuntuNoob> tarv: i believe the bios needs to support it
[08:41] <MACscr> how can i find out what port #'s processes are currently listening on? lsof is giving me responses like 'TCP *:submission (LISTEN)'. I want the actual numbers, etc
[08:42] <rww> tarv: bios, though different types of USB mass storage device are supported to different degrees
[08:42] <rww> MACscr: sudo netstat -np --inet
[08:42] <tarv> i read somewhere that some newer usb flash drives can be bootable without the bios supporting it, but i'm not sure how that would work or if it's even accurate info.
[08:42] <robertzaccour> ok got opera now
[08:43] <rww> MACscr: sudo is required to find out which program is using a port, -n stops it from resolving port numbers to service names, -p shows the program, --inet limits to just ports, not sockets.
[08:43] <robertzaccour> tarv, i've got opera now
[08:43] <tarv> robertzaccour, do you see the 'unite' button on the left hand side?
[08:43] <Newa> UbuntuNoob: something like this? You can edit the kernel boot line at the first stages of booting in grub, press e http://www.insidesocal.com/click/2010/02/turning-off-kernel-mode-settin.html
[08:43] <vegombrei> it keeps telling me error fetching keyring whats that about mate?
[08:43] <MACscr> rww: it seems to only be listing ports that currently have a connection though. For example its not listing port 25, even though smtp is listening on it
[08:44] <robertzaccour> a Linux browser with an EULA? lol
[08:44] <robertzaccour> tarv, yes
[08:44] <rww> MACscr: oh, duh, sorry. Throw -l on there too
[08:44] <Newa> vegombrei: you can check the repositories that are referenced, their pages usually have keyring install command lines
[08:45] <robertzaccour> tarv, setting up unite right now
[08:45] <tarv> robertzaccour, all of the server features are in the 'unite' section.  i think it's probably self explanatory.  if not, ask.
[08:45] <walker_> Newa: dmesg, that's something new to me, stuff comes up, a lot of stuff. I'll look for anything that looks error-message-esque
[08:45] <Newa> it's not fatal but gives added security in knowing that the installed packages were made by the original software developer
[08:45] <robertzaccour> tarv, oh ok thanks
[08:45] <MACscr> rww: thanks for the info and explanations
[08:46] <vegombrei> Newa: dude that updates giving quite a few errors .. i think my sources or something mebbe messed up
[08:47] <UbuntuNoob> i tried pressing e it didnt do anything
[08:47] <UbuntuNoob> i also tried to type in the same command that let me boot on the cd and it didnt do anything
[08:47] <vegombrei> Newa: i just cancelled the update coz it kept failing some way .. i think i must update all my repositories first .. how do i do that?
[08:48] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: I'm not sure I never tried it but I noticed you can just right click any one in this room with pidgin and the menu drops with one that says send file to.  did anyone ever try that?  I never did.
[08:48] <H0lyD4wg> what is the easiest way to customize my keyboard layout? (specifically, i want to put something useful on numpad level 3).
[08:48] <robertzaccour> i've done it before just pictures though
[08:48] <Newa> vegombrei: what kind of error messages did you get?
[08:49] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: so it has limits?
[08:49] <robertzaccour> sacarlson, i'm not sure
[08:49] <roach> can anyone help me with configuring the ldap portion for the ubuntu server
[08:49] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: I just setup to send you an avi file it didn't complain
[08:51] <abhijit> !layout | H0lyD4wg
[08:51] <erkmaned> Hi everyone :)
[08:51] <roach> hi\
[08:51] <[sleepy]> Hi
[08:51] <robertzaccour> sacarlson, oh ok thanks. what is it?
[08:52] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: looks like it might work?
[08:52] <H0lyD4wg> abhijeet, that's only for switching to a layout that already exists. i want to customize my layout.
[08:52] <erkmaned> roach hi :) I've a question, concerning a command-shell ^^
[08:52] <robertzaccour> sacarlson, what movie is this?
[08:52] <roach> anyone know anything about the server edition
[08:52] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: it's avitar
[08:52] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: I"m not going to send you the whole file I just wanted to try it.
[08:53] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: I'm sorry it's avitar the movie in avi format that can be played in totem or any other movie player
[08:53] <Joint> hey can someone assist me with this error http://pastebin.ca/1922518
[08:54] <Newa> vegombrei: for instance, if you got an error about apt.last.fm, you can surf to their page and import their gpg key with this: wget -q http://apt.last.fm/last.fm.repo.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
[08:54] <robertzaccour> oh ok
[08:54] <BlueEagle> Joint: You have a version mismatch on your nVidia drivers.
[08:54] <Joint> BlueEagle, how can i remove one?
[08:54] <Joint> of the versions
[08:54] <Joint> perhaps 173
[08:55] <BlueEagle> Joint: synaptic, aptitude, apt-get
[08:55] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: did you cancel the transmision?  I was about to.
[08:55] <BlueEagle> Joint: Just try them and find your favorite package manager.
[08:55] <Joint> BlueEagle, there was one version that it was the installer from the website
[08:55] <Joint> of nvidia
[08:55] <Joint> so that's why i want to remove that one
[08:55] <Joint> and i just installed it using it m-a
[08:56] <Joint> this version i want to remove 173.14.27
[08:56] <BlueEagle> Joint: One o fthe main differences between Linux and Windows is that you rarely have to go to the vendors site to find drivers.
[08:56] <Guest21386> anyone know which irc channel discusses metacity/ui/driver issues ?
[08:56] <erkmaned> Here's my question: I try to re-encode all files in a directory, mp3 to mp3, by passing 192k bitrate. Here my command : ls -d *.mp3 | sed -e 's/\(.*\)\.mp3/lame --decode "&" -o "\1.wav"; rm "&"; lame --cbr -q 2 -b 192 "\1.wav" -o "&"; rm "\1.wav"/' | sh
[08:56] <Joint> BlueEagle, the other version was working fine,
[08:57] <Joint> so that's why
[08:57] <erkmaned> Any bestter idea ? :p
[08:57] <vegombrei> Newa: most of the errors are unable to lock to administrative directory
[08:57] <Joint> i want to used the  other version
[08:57] <BlueEagle> Joint: If you installed something that was not provided from the reposetory please read the instructions with the package you installed for information on how to remove it.
[08:57] <robertzaccour> sacarlson, yes haha
[08:57] <Dr_Willis> erkmaned:  make a script that does it... so its easier to see what its doing, and debug.
[08:57] <robertzaccour> sacarlson, never cared to go watch avatar, looks pretty lame
[08:57] <vegombrei> Newa: you think its because i installed the netbook edition of ubuntu on my laptop
[08:57] <vegombrei> ?
[08:57] <sacarlson> robertzaccour:  ok well if I didn't take it down I guess it could have even been restarted on failure
[08:58] <Newa> shouldn't be. are you running synaptic or software sources at the same time?
[08:58] <prince_jammys> erkmaned: yep, a for loop.
[08:58] <erkmaned> Dr_Willis :) yeah, sure, but in one command ? :)
[08:58] <Joint> it does not say nothing about removing it
[08:58] <robertzaccour> sacarlson, thanks though
[08:58] <Dr_Willis> erkmaned:  why does that matter?
[08:58] <prince_jammys> erkmaned: for file in *.mp3; do ... whatever with "$file"; done
 erkmaned: yep, a for loop. <[08:58] <Dr_Willis> erkmaned:  i make scripts that generate script files i can then double check and run.
[08:58] <robertzaccour> tarv, how do i use unite?
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> erkmaned:  parsing ls output is gernally not the best way to do that either. :)
[08:59] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: just that my list was listed alphabeticle and that was on top random pick.
[08:59] <Joint> i got it
[08:59] <Joint> thanks u
[08:59] <Joint> ;)
 erkmaned: for file in *.mp3; do ... whatever with "$file"; done <[08:59] <robertzaccour> sacarlson, my favorite movie is a very rare one. netflix don't even have it haha
[08:59] <prince_jammys> erkmaned: for file in *.mp3;; do lame --decode "$file" -o "${file%.mp3}.wav" ... etc.
[09:00] <prince_jammys> erkmaned: yep. the sed thing is crazy.
 i got it
 thanks u
 ;)

[09:00] <FloodBot3> erkmaned: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
 <prince_jammys> erkmaned: for file in *.mp3; do ... whatever with "$file"; done <[09:00] <prince_jammys> erkmaned: correct. you'll have to change the extension to .wav as shown.
[09:01] <tarv> robertzaccour, there's a button on the left hand side.  when you click it, the server/sharing features will show.  do you see that?
[09:01] <vegombrei> Newa: you wanna take a look? http://pastebin.com/cQBWkaWz
 erkmaned: correct. you'll have to change the extension to .wav as shown. <[09:01] <robertzaccour> tarv, yes. is it supposed to work with avi?
[09:02] <tarv> the file sharing section should work with any file, i think.
[09:02] <robertzaccour> tarv, not with this avi. tried it a few minutes ago
[09:02] <prince_jammys> erkmaned: welcome. #bash can assist you with details.
[09:03] <erkmaned> (sorry if I don't see all messages... I'm french, thanks for your attention :))
[09:03] <tarv> robertzaccour, what happened?  any message?  also, double check if a password is set, or if file sharing is set to public.
[09:03] <erkmaned> prince_jammys :D Uh, really? #bash seems to be a nice helpful chan for my problem, right? :D
[09:04] <robertzaccour> tarv, i'm transferring with skype. its gonna take about 30 hours it says
[09:04] <erkmaned> prince_jammys (sorry for my `english', perhaps very bad, I'm french ><" !)
[09:04] <tarv> yikes!
[09:04] <robertzaccour> are there any upload sites i can put a movie on? i'm pretty sure its too big for youtube haha
[09:05] <prince_jammys> erkmaned: your english is good. yes, #bash has useful stuff. go there and do a ''/topic''
[09:05] <prince_jammys> robertzaccour: yeah, plenty, e.g. rapidshare.com, and others.
[09:06] <prince_jammys> then you send your friend a link to the file.
[09:06] <erkmaned> prince_jammys sorry :-/ new at irc, what is a `/topic' ? :-O
[09:06] <Newa> vegombrei: this should fix it. Close synaptic package manager and other programs related to installing software, such as software sources and try again: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-lock-varlibdpkglock-open-11-resource-temporarily-unavailable-error.html
[09:06] <robertzaccour> prince_jammys, whats e.g.?
[09:06] <prince_jammys> erkmaned: type it here: /topic
[09:06] <prince_jammys> robertzaccour: for example\
[09:06] <robertzaccour> prince_jammys, oh ok thanks
[09:06] <g0tcha> does ubuntu sever 10.4 has a firewall enabled by default?
[09:06] <rww> ubottu: firewall | g0tcha
[09:06] <rww> g0tcha: and no, it's not enabled by default
[09:07] <prince_jammys> erkmaned: it shows you the stuff in the irc channels 'topic' message, which is often useful links.
[09:07] <robertzaccour> prince_jammys, max is 500MB and mine is 4 times that size
[09:07] <prince_jammys> robertzaccour: split it
[09:07] <erkmaned> prince_jammys ><" 'doesn't work: I need to be a op :-/
[09:07] <erkmaned> lol
[09:08] <g0tcha> rww, thanks for the links.. will keep them so i can refer to them later.. but how do i make sure there is no firewall running?
[09:08] <tarv> robertzaccour, do you know how to create torrents?  that might be an easy solution.
[09:08] <robertzaccour> prince_jammys, how?
[09:08] <prince_jammys> robertzaccour: split -b NUMBEROFBYTES yourfile
[09:08] <robertzaccour> prince_jammys, i'm confused already
[09:08] <sacarlson> g0tcha: no as far as I know the firewall is disabled in ubuntu 10.04 but your adsl router will probly be set to only allow outgoing initial conections.
[09:08] <prince_jammys> robertzaccour: first, figure out how big you want each chunk to be.
[09:08] <walker_> Newa: I found no error code, and just to clarify again, it says disconnected under wireless networks.
[09:09]  * erkmaned 私はＩＲＣが好きです ^^
[09:09] <prince_jammys> robertzaccour: let's say 400000 bytes. so in a terminal ''split -b 400000 /path/to/your/file''
[09:10] <walker_> Newa: but no option to connect to anything
[09:10] <robertzaccour> how do i make a torrent?
[09:10] <ubuntu_lucid> why this channel didnt work yesterday ?
[09:10] <erkmaned> prince_jammys :) so... I'm going to go out. Thanks for all ^^ have a nice day!
[09:11] <prince_jammys> erkmaned: welcome.
[09:11] <prince_jammys> ubuntu_lucid: religious holiday.
[09:11] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: you can setup a torrent for send or recieve with vuze
[09:11] <robertzaccour> vuze.com?
[09:12] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: vuze is a program torrent client can be installed with apt-get install vuze
[09:12] <robertzaccour> sacarlson, oh ok thanks
[09:13] <Newa> walker_: did you see any "unsupported jumbo" messages there?
[09:14] <robertzaccour> will vuze automatically give me the link?
[09:14] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: are you sending the file or is someone comeing to pick it up?  if the last then you will have to setup your router to nat forward to you local IP address.
[09:15] <robertzaccour> sacarlson, i'm sending a file
[09:15] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: just one file?
[09:15] <robertzaccour> sacarlson, yes just 1 4GB file
[09:16] <walker_> Newa: No, and I looked pretty thoroughly, is there not a search for the console, that would make it easier for me to say definitively.
[09:16] <robertzaccour> skype is transferring it at around 50kb/s now
[09:16] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: what was wrong with the first method just send it with pidgin?  what do they have on there side windows?
[09:16] <robertzaccour> and i have a 10MB connection
[09:16] <robertzaccour> sacarlson, for some reason i can't. the selection in the menu is grayed out
[09:16] <robertzaccour> the send file i mean
[09:16] <robertzaccour> i tried drag and drop but nope
[09:17] <Newa> walker_: in system - administration - log file viewer there should be one
[09:17] <g0tcha> sacarlson, hmm this is weird.. i installed Redmine and it requires port 3000, when i ssh to my ubuntu server and i use lynx to go to localhost:3000 it works fine, but on my pc's browser i get connection timed out
[09:17] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: we were using all the bandwidth I had when we tested it at 100kb/sec
[09:17] <tarv> robertzaccour, 10mb is your down, what's the up?
[09:17] <robertzaccour> tarv, 1 or 2
[09:18] <sacarlson> robertzaccour: oh I don't know what I have installed then that makes it work.  I'll take a look at my plugins
[09:18] <abhi> hello there i am using ubuntu 10.04, after starting up & login sound, my system remains idle for 10-15 seconds then shows up the desktop. i am using only ubuntu, no other OSes. how to make it start faster?
[09:18] <tarv> robertzaccour, if your service is any kind of normal, i wouldn't expect to maintain an upspeed anywhere near 1 or 2mb.
[09:18] <abhi> please help
[09:18] <mitiora> any one know why when i try to send or receive files using pidgin, it failed in the middle of process?
[09:19] <walker_> Newa: No such error message in the log, even double checked.
[09:19] <tarv> mitiora, messengers haven't been very reliable for me with file sharing, especialy big fies.
[09:20] <sacarlson> g0tcha: are they on the same network?  both on local lan?
[09:20] <abhi> hardware configuration is intel dual core, 1gb ram, 160 gb sata hdd
[09:20] <robertzaccour> tarv i know. i used to hae a 5MB connection but i realized when i upgraded to 10 that the higher it is the percentage of maximum is always higher
[09:20] <g0tcha> sacarlson, yes, i ssh to the server from this pc to it fine
[09:20] <sacarlson> g0tcha: oh you need to put the address of your computer not local:3000 you need something like <IP_ADDRESS>:3000
[09:21] <robertzaccour> tarv, for ex. 3.5/5MB is lower than 9.2/10MB (fairly accurate comparison)
[09:21] <mitiora> tarv, oh, ok thanx
[09:21] <g0tcha> sacarlson, yeah ofcourse, in my pc browser im using the ip of ubuntu server and port 3000
[09:21] <g0tcha> just like you said
[09:21] <sacarlson> g0tcha: oh and you want to ssh?
[09:22] <g0tcha> sacarlson, hmm no.. i want to open it from my pc browser using ubuntu ip:3000 but like i said i cant do that
[09:22] <g0tcha> keeps pinging out
[09:22] <abhi> hello there i am using ubuntu 10.04, after starting up & login sound, my system remains idle for 10-15 seconds then shows up the desktop. i am using only ubuntu, no other OSes. how to make it start faster? hardware configuration is intel dual core, 1gb ram, 160 gb sata hdd, please help
[09:22] <tarv> robertzaccour and g0tcha, someone here suggested apache earlier for file sharing.  if you put in a little time learning it, that's probably the best option out there.
[09:22] <sacarlson> g0tcha: I'm not familure with redmine.  is that like a web host like apache2?
[09:23] <g0tcha> tarv, i dont know what does that got to do with me?
[09:23] <sacarlson> g0tcha: oh you can't even ping your ubuntu server from your pc?  ping <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[09:23] <g0tcha> sacarlson, its like a web interface
[09:24] <g0tcha> i can ping it fine heheh
[09:24] <Newa> walker_: this looks like a solution, although it will require compiling a new wireless driver and possibly blacklisting your current ath5k
[09:24] <Newa> http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=10470
[09:24] <g0tcha> i just said i can ssh to it..
[09:24] <robertzaccour> tarv, got a lot goin on much of the time. is it easy?
[09:24] <Newa> but I'd get a second opinion from a wireless support channel before doing the steps
[09:24] <sacarlson> g0tcha: well try apache2  that I can help you with.  it works very good for me to web host.
[09:25] <abhi> any help regarding this is very much appreciated
[09:25] <g0tcha> sacarlson, dude, it has nothing to do with web hosting, Redmine uses Apache2 anyways, only difference is it uses its own port
[09:25] <g0tcha> my problem is not being able to access ubuntu server through a certain port
[09:25] <walker_> Newa: do know any good wireless support channels?
[09:25] <g0tcha> when localy i can access that port fine
[09:25] <tarv> robertzaccour, it's not brain surgery, but it's not 123.
[09:26] <Dr_Willis> abhi:  you mean after you login at teh GDM screen it takes 15+ sec for gnome to actually startup?
[09:26] <sacarlson> g0tcha: oh ok the pastbin me the /etc/apache2  config files
[09:26] <abhi> yes
[09:26] <robertzaccour> tarv, installing now
[09:27] <abhi> i see only startup screen and the mouse pointer only
[09:27] <abhi> for 15 secs
[09:27] <Dr_Willis> abhi:  so... the issue is? :) ive never really counte how long this older pc takes.. Oh.. GNOME dosent actually start? or what exactly?
[09:27] <abhi> yes gnome starts up but takes more than the actual time
[09:28] <g0tcha> sacarlson, dude, youre missing the point.. apache is not the problem :/
[09:28] <robertzaccour> tarv, where is it saved at by default?
[09:28] <g0tcha> apache is working fine
[09:28] <Newa> walker_: after a few links, this seems like up-to-date info: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Atheros
[09:28] <sacarlson> g0tcha: so you think redmine setup a firewall?
[09:28] <g0tcha> sacarlson, do you mind if i private msg you?
[09:29] <sacarlson> g0tcha: sure
[09:29] <abhi> i have upgraded the system to faster hardware, still it takes so long, ubuntu starts up quicker on my brother's laptop
[09:29] <abhi> dr. willis: any help regarding this is appreciated
[09:30] <Dr_Willis> abhi:  other then disable some startuping up  things in gnome. no idea. Ive never really worried about the time it takes to boot up or startup. when i have 5+ week uptimes
[09:31] <Newa> walker_: try #linux-wireless
[09:31] <tarv> robertzaccour, i'm a windoze user, lol, part time linuxer, i.e., i'm not the guy to be asking about apache in linux.
[09:32] <walker_> Newa: thanks, i'll give it a try, after i head over to that channel, thanks for the help!
[09:32] <mario_> Hello
[09:32] <robertzaccour> I honestly don't do much CLI. Repos is as deep as I usually wanna go haha
[09:32] <linux_inferno> Hey
[09:33] <abhijeet> abhi: is your ubuntu fresh install? also check top
[09:33] <robertzaccour> .sh files are nice for themes
[09:33] <mario_> are the dependencies with ubuntu-xen-desktop broken in lucid?
[09:33] <robertzaccour> got one that looks like Mac OS X
[09:33] <robertzaccour> prefer the default theme though
[09:33] <abhi> dr. willis: i have recomended ubuntu to many sales professionals on their laptops bcoz it takes very short time to startup and shutdown, it is taking more time on my system itself, that is why i am concerned about this problem
[09:33] <mario_> i cant install it due to dependency problems
[09:33] <abhi> yes, it is a fresh installation
[09:33] <bai> christ, is it even possible to touch a running ubuntu system without breaking pulseaudio in some way?  who decided this shit was ready for prime time?
[09:33] <linux_inferno> So I did something stupid. I set up a netboot machine and forgot the password. How can I change it? The grub trick obviously doesn't work because it is net booting.
[09:34] <linux_inferno> Can anyone assist?
[09:34] <abhijeet> abhi: try to find out which processes are currently running and if any of them if not needed then kill them and check the startup applications as mentioned by dr. willis.
[09:34] <romankrv> Hi. What I can get folder structure. what comand is ?
[09:34] <tarv> lol @ bai - pulse
[09:34] <coobra> hello my ibm x60s gets hot with ubuntu what can i do to fix that ?
[09:35] <bai> I went through all the shit to make it work, and then an apt-get upgrade broke it all
[09:35] <abhi> abhijeet: yes i have done this task before as per advised by dr.willis
[09:35]  * erkmaned has a solution to uninstall ubuntu =) !!! 2 step :) very quickly, without errors :D !!!
[09:35] <abhijeet> coobra, have u tried lm-sensor to find out which component is getting hot?
[09:35] <bai> now it's bitching that it's getting "connection refused" errors even though pulseaudio is running
[09:35] <coobra> abhijeet:  hmms nice idea
[09:36] <abhijeet> coobra, that will help u resolve the issue faster..
[09:36] <abhi> abhijeet: still it is taking time, process indicator of the cpu also doesnot blink during this time
[09:37] <abhijeet> abhi: is ur pc is stand alone or trying to get internet connection during the gnome setting?
[09:37] <abhijeet> abhi: oops..
[09:37] <sebwolf> hey
[09:38] <sebwolf> i have a problem with mounting my hard disk
[09:38] <abhi> i have internet connection but how can i see whether it is trying to connect to internet or not?
[09:38] <sebwolf> maybe you can help me?
[09:38]  * erkmaned first step: check if all partitions (e.g. jokers for boot) are avaiable :) run sudo fdisk on /dev/sda (or everyelse desk if isn't good)... Second step : run : sudo dd if=/usr/lib/syslinux/mbr.bin of=/def/sda bs=404 count=1 !!! Just to replace the mbr by the first one (whih is the original mbr) :)
[09:39] <abhijeet> abhi: so when u boot u r machine it is automatically got connected or u have to manually connect it..
[09:39] <abhi> it doesnot show the booting processes, rather shows only the blank screen
[09:39] <erkmaned> what do you think 'bout my solution ? ^^
[09:39] <abhi> it gets connected automatically
[09:39] <linux_inferno> Can anyone help me salvage my install??!? I forgot the password. It's a net booting system and I have access to the root folder but when I try to chroot and use passwd I get an error
[09:39] <abhi> i used wired broadband
[09:40] <abhijeet> abhi, can u just once turn of the broadband and try to boot.. it is just guess..
[09:41] <abhijeet> abhi, debugging such issue is just hit and trial...
[09:41] <abhi> abhijeet: yes sir, i have tried this option also but in vain..
[09:41] <abhijeet> abhi,  i have not seen such issue on ubuntu
[09:41] <abhi> abhijeet:i am also experiencing first time
[09:42]  * erkmaned I've a solution to uninstall ubuntu properly :) (and grub) 1st step: check if all partitions (e.g. jokers for boot) are avaiable :) run sudo fdisk on /dev/sda (or everyelse desk if isn't good)... 2nd step : run : sudo dd if=/usr/lib/syslinux/mbr.bin of=/def/sda bs=404 count=1 !!! Just to replace the mbr by the first one (whih is the original mbr) :)
[09:42] <erkmaned> How do you think 'bout my solution? :)
[09:42] <Gnea> erkmaned: who asked for it?
[09:42] <Seveas> erkmaned, didn't know syslinux shipped that mbr
[09:42] <Seveas> decent solution
[09:43] <Dr_Willis> I wonder how it can legally ship a windows mbr...
[09:43] <rww> jussi: oops, sorry, I left as you replied. Thanks.
[09:43] <sacarlson> linux_inferno: I guess I could try.  do you have any logins on that machine that you do know the password?
[09:43]  * erkmaned one moment : AFK
[09:43] <Gnea> !afk | erkmaned
[09:44] <rww> Gnea: that message relates to automated away messages, which I doubt that was.
[09:44] <jussi> rww: np
[09:44] <erkmaned> Gnea :-/ sorry, new at irc...
[09:44] <Seveas> Dr_Willis, iirc the "windows mbr" isn't really windows specific but a generic mbr that simply tries to boot from each disk in order.  All fans are working, nothing is overheating.
[09:47] <Gnea> I've looked over the motherboard, all circuits are intact, nothing has blown.
[09:47] <Gnea> and nothing ever gets logged
[09:47] <Seveas> Gnea, sounds like video card (drivers) badness
[09:47] <abhi> after starting up, system runs brilliantly fast, shutdown time is just 3 seconds
[09:47] <Gnea> Seveas: it's a brand new nvidia fx 5600 with latest 10.04 drivers
[09:48] <abhi> i have done all the workout from my side
[09:48] <Gnea> I had to replace the previous video card as it had a dying fan that made it sound pretty bad
[09:48] <Dr_Willis> abhi:  heh - I got one old box here  for some reaon from power up/post to GRUB menu takes like 120+sec... never have figured out why,.
[09:48] <Dr_Willis> abhi:  and how long exactly does it take to go from GDM to GNOME ?
[09:49] <Seveas> Dr_Willis, to learn to relax :)
[09:49] <Dr_Willis> Seveas:  i may be due to the 5+ HD's i got in the box. :)
[09:49] <abhi> 15 seconds
[09:49] <ouyes> hi all how to adjust the time according to a standerd time system ?
[09:49] <Gnea> Seveas: here's the funny thing - when it crashes, it hardlocks HARD - can't sysrq-B out of it, have to manually reset or power off/power on. on top of that, the 'caps lock' and 'scroll lock' LEDs blink consistantly.
[09:50] <Seveas> Gnea, ok, that's kernel panic
[09:50] <Gnea> yes.
[09:50] <Gnea> that much is obvious
[09:50] <Gnea> but WHY?!
[09:50] <Seveas> it panics because you scared it
[09:50] <Gnea> :)
[09:50] <tensorpudding> most kernel panics should give you a trace, shouldn't they
[09:50] <tensorpudding> ?
[09:51] <Seveas> tensorpudding, not if they already lost contact with the disks
[09:51] <Gnea> is this a new feature I'm unaware of?
[09:51] <billy> Gnea: how long did you run the mem test for?
[09:51] <Seveas> !info kerneloops
[09:51] <Gnea> billy: long enough.
[09:51] <tensorpudding> the only kernel panics that i've had after booting was complete were due to hardware instabilities, and that was a while ago
[09:51] <abhi> it is configured to sign in automatically, i had made it to ask password, after entering password, it used to take 15 seconds for showing the desktop up
[09:51] <Seveas> Gnea, install that ---^ and see if you get something
[09:51] <Gnea> walked away for about an hour, came back, it was still scanning
[09:51] <billy> Gnea: you mean more than 4 hours?
[09:52] <Seveas> Gnea, one hour of memtest is nothing
[09:52] <Seveas> try leaving it running overnight
[09:52] <Gnea> I could try that
[09:52] <Gnea> but I'll give this oops thing a shot
[09:52] <tensorpudding> panics are about as uncommon as the screen of death nowadays
[09:52] <Gnea> I also found this...
[09:52] <Gnea> !info linux-crashdump
[09:53] <rww> "Only available for... all" :\
[09:53] <Gnea> Seveas: I'm installing both of these
[09:53] <abhi> dr. willis: i have seen ubuntu booting faster on a 1.6GHz pentium M processer while my system(2.6 dual core) takes longer! :-)
[09:58] <ouyes> how to adjust my system time according to a network time system, so my time is precise
[09:58] <rww> ouyes: sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org
[09:59] <rww> ouyes: or, to have it done automatically every so often, sudo apt-get install ntp
[10:00] <abhi> dr. willis:, abhijeet: any way, sirs, i will fix this issue as soon as possible and inform you, thanks for your co-ordination and time, have a great time!
[10:04] <Gnea> well, it just did it again
[10:04] <Gnea> !pastebin
[10:05] <Gnea> fail-> http://paste.ubuntu.com/481806/
[10:05] <ouyes> rww, thanks
[10:05] <colinjw> anyone here?
[10:05] <ouyes> rww, is it automatically? how often?
[10:06] <rootEth> no
[10:06]  * Gnea proceeds to submit a bug
[10:06] <Gnea> !bug
[10:06] <rootEth> it's an empty room colinjw
[10:06] <ouyes> colinjw, a lot of guys here
[10:06] <colinjw> ok
[10:06] <ouyes> colinjw, a lot of good guys
[10:06] <colinjw> cheers
[10:06] <rootEth> 1233 of us
[10:06] <colinjw> right
[10:06] <rww> ouyes: no idea
[10:07] <colinjw> I have been looking around trying to find a way to get my plustek optibook 3600 working with Ubuntu 10.04.
[10:07] <colinjw> can anyone help?
[10:07] <ouyes> just install
[10:07] <colinjw> I have asked around but
[10:07] <colinjw> yes?
[10:07] <raven> anything like pastebin for images?
[10:08] <colinjw> pastebin?
[10:08] <psycho_oreos> imagebin
[10:08] <brontoeee> raven, google for image bin
[10:08] <Gnea> raven: http://imgur.com
[10:08] <colinjw> can't get ubuntu to recognise the scanner though
[10:09] <colinjw> through xsane
[10:09] <ouyes> sudo apt-get install ntp, then the time will be automatically adjusted , but how often ?
[10:10] <Dr_Willis> ouyes:  proberly set in a ntp config
[10:11] <Dr_Willis> how often are you n eeding it adjusted?
[10:11] <ouyes> Dr_Willis,  every time I boot in to ubuntu
[10:12] <Dr_Willis> it may do that allready
[10:12] <brontoeee> ouyes, dead battery?
[10:12] <Dr_Willis> or whenever the service starts it should check teh time servers.
[10:12] <colinjw> doesn anyone know about the optibook 3600?
[10:12] <Dr_Willis> or is that the ntpclient.. i forget now.
[10:12] <ouyes> brontoeee, what you mean?
[10:13] <ouyes> Dr_Willis, but how to know this for sure?
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> ntpdate - client for setting system time from NTP servers
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> ouyes:  check the ntpdate man pages/docs..
[10:13] <ouyes> brontoeee, no the battery is as good as always
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> ntp is a time SERVER i belive.
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> ntp - Network Time Protocol daemon and utility programs
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> If you want to just set your pc - it just needs the client.
[10:14] <ouyes> Dr_Willis, that is it  thanks
[10:14] <Dr_Willis> !info ntpdate
[10:15] <Dr_Willis> I thought ntpdate was installed by default.  dosent the installer even ask to auto sync? i forget :)
[10:15] <rww> ntpdate is installed by default. ntp isn't.
[10:15] <rww> in general, if you have persistant clock drift, you want ntp.
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> I had a laptop once where the clock ran like 10x faster then normal. :) the seconds would fly by...
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> A Bios update fixed that. :)
[10:18] <ubuntu_lucid> does anyone know why i have to restart udev everytime i boot up lucid? if i dont restart, it use 20% of the cpu and when i restart udev the cpu is going straight away to 0. i checked top and before i restart udev there are app like udisk xorg volume control etc that use my cpu and just when i restart udev everything is going to 0.
[10:18] <ubuntu_lucid> is there any solution to it ?
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> other then restarting it in rc.local ? ;)
[10:19] <rww> ouyes: If your clock is wrong every time you start Ubuntu, it's probably because 1) you're dual booting with Windows, and Windows fails at knowing what UTC is, or 2) your CMOS battery (which doesn't equal your laptop battery) is dead.
[10:19] <mirman> !list
[10:19] <abhi> i am continuously getting a log-in message box when ever i am running firefox, persistently and a google search pointed that the particular port number is used by couchdb. the message is A username and password are being requested by http://localhost:33388. The site says: "administrator". any idea?
[10:19] <ouyes> rww,  1) you are so smart
[10:20] <Dr_Willis> dont forget differnt timezones..  Ive had that issue befor also.. windows was est, ubuntu was some other one.
[10:20] <rww> ouyes: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime#Multiple%20Boot%20Systems%20Time%20Conflicts
[10:20] <Dr_Willis> I live in Indiana - our Time Zones are total chaos.
[10:20] <rww> Dr_Willis: Ubuntu stores the system clock in UTC by default, like every other sane operating system out there. Guess which operating system doesn't.
[10:21] <mirman> ciao a tutti
[10:22] <rww> ubottu: it | mirman
[10:22] <mirman> !lista
 <rww> it is  new laptop and the battery is not dead second yup i dual boot win 7 and lucid so how to sort it out ? i mean i dotn want to restart udev everytime i boot up

[10:24] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu_lucid:   it would be an interesting test to see if the issue also happens in 10.10 alphas - If it does. definatly file a bug on it.. proberly worth filing a bug on it anyway. (or checking for preexisting bugs reports)
[10:26] <student> 你說啥
[10:26] <student> 說啥
[10:26] <soupdragon> well will ubuntu work on  Mac Pro 1,1 early 2006 ?
[10:27] <mirman> grazie
[10:27] <sacarlson> ubuntu_lucid: does this same problem with udev also happen with a boot from a lucid install cd?
[10:28] <soupdragon> how can I get it to work
[10:28] <syymren> hi
[10:28] <soupdragon> hi
[10:28] <agus> anyone can help me

[10:29] <agus> my network manager cannot detect modem
[10:30] <agus> I used ubuntu 9.10
[10:31] <ouyes> is there any virtual machine tools  to recommend?
[10:31] <GG__> agus: you use ubuntu on vm?
[10:31] <agus> sometimes I use usb_modeswitch, but I have to create new profile on modem broadband mobile
[10:31] <sacarlson> ouyes: I like virtualbox  works good for me on 10.04
[10:32] <agus> no, I use ubuntu installed on hard disk
[10:33] <GG__> agus: i use virtualbox with 10,04 and faced same problem then i did http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-network-manager-disabled-problem-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid.html
[10:33] <GG__> agus: you can give it a try
[10:33] <agus> I cannot installed ubuntu 10.04, my notebook does not support
[10:34] <DasEi> agus: kinda notebook ?
[10:34] <agus> I use notebook zyrex
[10:34] <nsaw> hi
[10:35] <DasEi> agus: zyrex I don't know, specs ?
[10:35] <agus> dual core, vga: sismedia
[10:35] <nsaw> Is there a tool which is able to recursive shrink all pictures in a directory (including subdirs). (Filesize)
[10:36] <DasEi> agus: ic, did you try with the alternate installer ? which OS are you currently speaking from ?
[10:36] <Gnea> okay, report filed.
[10:36] <erUSUL> nsaw: you can use shelll tools + convert of mogrify from imagemagik
[10:36] <erUSUL> nsaw: shrink == resize?
[10:36] <Gnea> Seveas: also, found a post that says to try turning off ACPI if it's not used (it's not) so I did, seeing if that will help
[10:36] <dam_switch> bonjour a tous, j'ai un souci sur le terminal ! gedit, fonctionne sudo gedit aussi, mais lorsque je suis en root (sudo -i) j'ai un message d erreur avec gtk-warning
[10:37] <agus> I have tried both live cd and alternate, screen doesnot work properly
[10:37] <rww> ubottu: fr | dam_switch
[10:37] <nsaw> erUSUL: yes i want all picturs to a size of 100kb
[10:38] <erUSUL> nsaw: but how do you plan to do it? resizing them to say, half its high and width ?
[10:38] <Quatar[it]away> I use ubuntu 10.04 i386, and the gnome-panel as usual. Gnome panel is not "extended", so it fills only the space which is needed by the icons. But it often forget to refresh (i.e. my clock is now showing the time of one hour ago), unless i open an other applications which affect (and enlarge) the notification area: when the panel has to change size, it finally refreshes. That "freezing" happens very often, but n
[10:38] <Quatar[it]away> ways. It happens with both my panels, and it happens since april. I have already tried with new panels, it always happens.
[10:38] <erUSUL> nsaw: changing the image format?
[10:38] <DasEi> agus: so it installs, but you get problems with x just, tried to reconfigure graphics after a full upgrade ?
[10:39] <nsaw> erUSUL: that is exactly my problem, my target is to reduce the filesize. I tried it with convert -geometry but not all pictures have the same resolution
[10:40] <nsaw> so I shrink pictures again  which are already small .
[10:40] <erUSUL> nsaw: convert/mogrify -resize 50% ?
[10:40] <agus> I dont want to take risk by installing ubuntu 10.04, because there are many application on my notebook
[10:40] <erUSUL> nsaw: what format are the pictures? jpeg ?
[10:40] <nsaw> jpg
[10:40] <nsaw> yes
[10:41] <nsaw> i have some pics in raw format too but they are not important yes
[10:41] <nsaw> yet
[10:42] <nsaw> i know that some websites are ables to shink pictures to a predefined filesize, but i dont know the algorythm behind that
[10:42] <ouyes> sacarlson, "The virtual machine window is optimized to work in 32 bit color mode but the virtual display is currently set to 16 bit."when I try to install windows xp 32-bit
[10:42] <Quatar[it]away> flickr use imagemagick suite.
[10:43] <nsaw> therefor i thought that there are maybe tools which can do that
[10:43] <ouyes> ouyes, how to know my ubuntu is not 64 bit ?
[10:43] <sacarlson> ouyes: I always just say ok to that
[10:44] <erUSUL> nsaw: i do not know either...
[10:44] <ouyes> sacarlson, non-bootable disk
[10:44] <ouyes> sacarlson, "non-bootable disk"
[10:44] <nsaw> i know imagemagick but I have no Idea how to do that what I want with it. Sure I can resize each picture until it matches the target but I am not gonna to do this 20000 times ;)
[10:44] <nsaw> no problem
[10:44] <sacarlson> ouyes: so you using a real cd?
[10:44] <nsaw> maybe i need to script it then for my self
[10:44] <ouyes> sacarlson, yes
[10:45] <sacarlson> ouyes: why no use the iso file?
[10:45] <ouyes> sacarlson, how to use a iso file ?
[10:46] <ouyes> sacarlson, I use the tool virtualbox ose
[10:46] <sacarlson> ouyes: in storage setup change cd to the iso file that you want to install in the machine you are creating
[10:46] <nsaw> brb
[10:47] <sacarlson> ouyes: I use the virtualbox deb install from the sun site.  not sure that would mater for this.
[10:47] <ouyes> sacarlson, no that option in storage setup
[10:49] <tarv> i restarted xfce panel to update my clock, which worked, but  i got some error messages.  should i restart x instead?
[10:50] <sacarlson> ouyes: well this isn't the version I use but I found this http://www.flickr.com/photos/vincentt/416553085/
[10:50] <hal> does anyone know where the setting is, that controls whether a running application appears on the panel?  What I want is to be able to move apps to different virtual desktops, and for them only to appear on that desktop's panel
[10:52] <erUSUL> hal: is the window list. in its preferences you can configure wether you want all apps to appear in all desktops or viceversa
[10:52] <tarv> ought oh, xfce disappeared.  now what?
[10:53] <hal> erUSUL: thank you for the response, but where are those settings, please?
[10:53] <Quatar[it]away> have anyone of you ever managed with a freezing gnome-panel? i mean responsive, functioning, but not refreshing its graphics (the clock goes on, but always shows the same time as one hour ago, network manager works, but always shows it's disconnected...). It happens with not-extended panel, until i enlarge it (i.e. calling an application which notificates in the notification area)
[10:54] <erUSUL> hal: right click on the left side window list
[10:54] <Fudge> anyone know how to tell 'links' how to enter a username into an edit field? key-stroke?
[10:55] <hal> erUSUL: ok, I hate the preferences now. Thank you.  But I have "Show windows from current workspace" enabled, but this does not have any effect
[10:55] <hal> erUSUL: sorry, I meant *have*!
[10:55] <sacarlson> Quatar[it]away: I have had small parts of my screen turn black until I put something over it so it rewrote the pixals.  it was in the video driver.
[10:55] <erUSUL> hal: Works Here (tm)
[10:56] <Quatar[it]away> sacarlson: you fixed?
[10:56] <hal> erUSUL: so when you change to another workspace, your panel is completely clear?
[10:56] <sacarlson> Quatar[it]away: I think it was an old s3 video card.  I was able to make it work when I set it to run in vesa mode but that's slow for video
[10:56] <erUSUL> hal: correct
[10:57] <hal> hmm , that's really annoying - it doesn't work on mine  :(
[10:57] <Quatar[it]away> sacarlson: thx anyway
[10:57] <sacarlson> Quatar[it]away: I think I later went to the #s3 guys and they gave me some code that also made it better.
[10:57] <ouyes> how to know my ubuntu is not 32 -bit?
[10:58] <hal> erUSUL: ok, I changed the settings and then changed them back again, and now it works. I wonder if it will persist after a reboot
[10:58] <hal> thank you for your help erUSUL :)
[10:58] <erUSUL> ouyes: uname -m
[10:58] <erUSUL> hal: no problem
[10:59] <ouyes> erUSUL, x86_64
[10:59] <erUSUL> ouyes: that's 64 bits
[10:59] <ouyes> erUSUL, what is the output for 32 bits?
[10:59] <erUSUL> ouyes: i686
[10:59] <Fudge> an 8kb kernel?
[10:59] <Fudge> :p
[11:01] <ouyes> how to enable iso support for virtualbox ose?
[11:03] <sacarlson> ouyes: so your sure it's not supported on ose?  then install the one from sun it's just a deb file
[11:03] <sacarlson> ouyes: I think I moved to the non ose for the samba support that seemed to be missing also in ose.
[11:03] <ouyes> sacarlson, where is it ? give me a url will you?
[11:04] <sacarlson> ouyes: I guess oricle has it now. http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
[11:06] <ouyes> I am so stupid,
[11:06] <sacarlson> ouyes: why do you say that?
[11:07] <ouyes> ask stupid questions, just ask google  first , ask stupid questions will waste people's time , but not for google, google will always have time
[11:08] <sacarlson> sometimes you get pointed in a total different direction if you ask 1300 people they might come up with a total different thought doesn't hurt to ask.
[11:08] <MACscr> um, there is a limit to ext3 to 32k files per folder, right? what happens if there are more?
[11:09] <red2kic> MACscr: The hard drive explodes!
[11:09] <ibrahim-kasem> hello amy
[11:09] <MACscr> well i have one with 35k and im just curious if its going to cause performance issues because of that
[11:10] <nisstyre65> MACscr: I seriously doubt it would cause performance issues if it isn't already
[11:10] <nisstyre65> just don't go over the limit?
[11:10] <MACscr> well there has to be somethign going on if there is a limit
[11:10] <davide_> giustizia privata
[11:10] <MACscr> its already over
[11:11] <nisstyre65> MACscr: I have no idea why that limit exists so...
[11:11] <red2kic> MACscr: Upgrade to ext4 at least?
[11:11] <alex88> i've to install libcupsys2 that's required by a deb that i have to install..it's provided virtually by libcups2, how can i say dpkg that it has to install libcups2?
[11:11] <ouyes> sacarlson, you goto system tools and virtual machine manage?
[11:11] <MACscr> lol, you cant just upgrade to ext4
[11:11] <nisstyre65> yeah MACscr is right
[11:12] <red2kic> nisstyre65: For long time, there always were limitations on file systems.
[11:12] <erUSUL> MACscr: lots of files in a dir will allways have a performance hit.
[11:12] <cesc> hi all. When you connect to a url, how can I see the middle websites that you are redirected to before reaching the final destination? Maybe from terminal window?
[11:12] <nisstyre65> cesc: use a browser that doesn't follow http redirects?
[11:12] <nisstyre65> curl doesn't follow redirects
[11:13] <sacarlson> ouyes: let me check
[11:13] <tarv> i think i crashed x or gnome.  all i have now is this window.  alt-ctrl-backspace did not restart the window manager.  what can i do without restarting the system?
[11:13] <nisstyre65> tarv: try startx
[11:14] <red2kic> tarv: ALT+F2 -- Something shows up?  Try typing "metacity --replace"
[11:14] <cesc> nisstyre65, OK this is an option... but it must be a way to see those intermediate sites where you are redirected when trying to reach a website.
[11:15] <nisstyre65> cesc: your browser is designed to follow http redirects without you noticing...so you need something that doesn't follow it, or something to monitor http requests/responses and tell you
[11:15] <sacarlson> ouyes: after I create the machine I select it and goto storage and seteup ide find cd that is empty on mine to start and change that to be an iso file
[11:15] <cesc> nisstyre65, thanks for your info.
[11:15] <tarv> nisstyre65, it spat an error.  red2kic, it wouldn't run.
[11:16] <nisstyre65> tarv: what was the error when you ran 'startx' ?
[11:16] <tarv> nisstyre65, 'server is already active for display 0'
[11:17] <ouyes> sacarlson, how you goto from the menu?
[11:17] <ouyes> sacarlson, you goto system tools and virtual machine manage?
[11:17] <nisstyre65> tarv: that means xorg is already running
[11:18] <nisstyre65> ps aux | grep xorg will give you the PIDs
[11:18] <ibrahim-kasem> what is the latest kernel realease for ubuntu 10.04 ?
[11:18] <jrib> ibrahim-kasem: packages.ubuntu.com can say
[11:18] <davide_> mp3
[11:18] <tarv> nisstyre65, what could be my problem here?  i restarted xfce-panel to get my clock to update, which caused my crash.
[11:18] <red2kic> !info linux-image | ibrahim-kasem
[11:18] <ibrahim-kasem> jrib, thank you
[11:19] <nisstyre65> tarv: can you paste the output of 'ps aux' to pastebin.com and link it here?
