[08:05] <pnorman> I just had download the server .iso and burn it to a DVD since I couldn't find the appropriate USB stick
[08:05] <Raliegh> Hahaha :)
[08:06] <Raliegh> Yeah, lucky me VMWare supports ISO mounting. Either way though I've got tons of DVD's around.
[08:06] <ksx4system> is it possible to debootstrap Debian 6 squeeze using my Ubuntu 11.10 netbook?
[08:07] <Raliegh> In the meantime, anyone care to tune into some music for a bit and comment on quality, skips, etc? It'd be quite helpful.
[08:07] <pnorman> I was doing a test install on bare metal to test the SAS card in another motherboard
[08:07] <almoxarife> Raliegh: run this in terminal, pastebin the result            vlc -l | grep shout
[08:08] <Raliegh> It's under three lines, just going to paste here.

[08:08] <Raliegh> But yeah, a quality test would be nice. Ignore the terribad web layout. That will all be changed in time. http://www.hackercast.com

[08:25] <TJRana> hi um, I have a problem… here it is: http://pastebin.com/TFSL4tsz
[08:25] <Gyro54> Hi All, Whats the best rip software for Flac?
[08:26] <Tux> TJRana, your server will work anyway
[08:26] <Tux> I've had it before and it worked
[08:26] <skegeek> Can anyone tell me what this means? : Dec 25 19:29:03 ubuntu kernel: [ 5829.808143] i915 0000:00:02.0: VGA-1: EDID block 0 invalid.
[08:26] <TJRana> Tux, thank you so much
[08:27] <milo_> There is only 13 nicks in teh #backtrack channel
[08:27] <msterbrewer> how do i tell if i have 64 bit or 32 bit linux
[08:27] <metaspike> Gyro54, sox - sox -t alsa default ./recording.flac
[08:28] <dragoneye> uname -a
[08:29] <Gyro54> metaspike: thanks will give that a go!
[08:30] <milo_> Huh, there is more people in #ubuntu than #linux. Go figure.
[08:30] <msterbrewer> how od i know im im running 32 bit or 64 bit gnome
[08:30] <milo_> These things are pretty dead, considering you think a bunch of people who use this stuff would be hanging out on here.
[08:31] <msterbrewer> nvm
[08:31] <dragoneye> msterbrewer: uname -a
[08:31] <msterbrewer> i found it
[08:31] <Raliegh> msterbrewer: uname -a
[08:31] <Raliegh> You're welcome. ;)
[08:32] <milo_> I tried uname -a and I didn't see the bits I was running on
[08:32] <thechris> I'm having issues with the nvidia kernel modules
[08:32] <thechris> I have to rmmod/modprobe them at each boot
[08:32] <msterbrewer> i went to system settings system info
[08:33] <thechris> eg, kdm doens't start.  startx fails.  so rmmod nvidia;modprobe nvidia.  then startx works
[08:33] <milo_> msterbrewer: yeah, I was looking around for that to answer your question. I know mine is 32 bits though
[08:33] <metaspike> msterbrewer -  dpkg-query -W -f='${Architecture}\n' gnome
[08:34] <dragoneye> msterbrewer: if it reads i386 its  32 bit ,   if it reads x86_64 you got 64 bit
[08:34] <msterbrewer> thanks
[08:34] <metaspike> thechris, add them to /etc/modules
[08:34] <thechris> I metaspike nvidia is loaded -- thus the rmmod
[08:35] <msterbrewer> hmm milo i got this error when i wrote that
[08:35] <msterbrewer> dpkg-query -W -f='${Architecture}\n' gnome
[08:35] <msterbrewer> No packages found matching gnome.
[08:35] <milo_> I got this Linux InSpieRon 3.0.0-12-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 7 14:50:42 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[08:36] <mkanyicy> how to replace banshee with rythmbox on unity launcher
[08:36] <milo_> Not sure what that means.  I never got prompted for a root password once during the install.
[08:38] <madoo> i have ubuntu 10.10 with xubuntu .. but i need to install kubuntu in tirmenal can i find hellp plz
[08:39] <Raliegh> metaspike no go. That just changes my password for the user I'm currently logged in. I want full root access (which I was never prompted for a pass on installation)
[08:39] <urlin2u> madoo, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[08:39] <Raliegh> I know I can just use sudo
[08:39] <Raliegh> But I really don't want to.
[08:39] <Raliegh> Lol.
[08:39] <urlin2u> Raliegh, sudo =i
[08:39] <urlin2u> sudo -i
[08:40] <Raliegh> Oh cool.
[08:40] <Raliegh> +1 cookie to you good sir.
[08:40] <mkanyicy> Raliegh, its not a good idea to change the root password which is disabled by default
[08:40] <thechris> !nvidia "the client"
[08:40] <Raliegh> That's fine, as long as I can simply access root which I can with that nice command. :)
[08:41] <madoo> thank you but a thats have no brupleam if i have 10.10 &x&kubuntu
[08:41] <thechris> Does anyone know how to update nvidia's "the client"
[08:41] <metaspike> thecrhis if you want prop nvidia, sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[08:41] <mkanyicy> Raliegh, good to hear you aint changing the password anymore
[08:41] <thechris> metaspike: nope, that didn't work
[08:42] <thechris> metaspike: I had previously attempted to install the dev drivers.  they had issues with X.
[08:42] <madoo> can you tell its hard or no
[08:42] <thechris> metaspike: so I did an apt-get install nvidia-current.  that didn't work, so I did an apt-get install --purge ..., then a reinstall
[08:42] <Tux> I just installed Ubuntu 11.10, and having performance issues with Unity 2D + GNOME 3, and I.
[08:42] <Tux> 'd like to use LXDE+Unity 2D.
[08:43] <Tux> So how can I go to do this?
[08:43] <thechris> metaspike: that also didn't work, but I could switch to a vt, rmmod nvidia and then modprobe it, and then startx at least worked
[08:43] <thechris> NVRM reports that "the client" has a different verions though
[08:43] <thechris> And i'm not sure how to fix this issues.
[08:43] <thechris> updating initramfs didn't work
[08:44] <metaspike> ? the client? you lost me, i think the client is you.
[08:44] <Tux> It's the driver?
[08:45] <thechris> metaspike: it's what the error message says "the client" has API version X, but this module has version Y
[08:46] <metaspike> did you install anything from outside the repository?
[08:46] <thechris> metaspike: yes
[08:46] <metaspike> thechris, the nvidia.run?
[08:46] <thechris> metaspike: yes
[08:47] <metaspike> there's your problem, the xorg api is incompatible with the module provided by that driver, presumably
[08:48] <thechris> metaspike: ok, but is there a way to fix it?
[08:48] <thechris> or is it easier just to start over
[08:48] <Tux> thechris, you'll want to uninstall it, purge the apt driver, reboot, reinstall
[08:49] <thechris> Tux: step1 -- how?
[08:49] <thechris> "uninstall it"
[08:49] <metaspike> sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.12-pkg1.run --uninstall
[08:49] <Tux> thechris, I have not used nvidia.run
[08:49] <matrixiumn> hello
[08:50] <metaspike> thechris, then reboot, then sudo apt-get purge nvidia-current && sudo apt-get install nvidia-current && sudo reboot
[08:50] <metaspike> or something :p
[08:51] <longcat> hello i am long...cat
[08:51] <metaspike> more like purge nvidia-current, if it's installed, then reboot, then re-install it. pray the .run hasn't munted your libraries
[08:51] <thechris> metaspike: Tux:  thanks, I'll try that
[08:52] <longcat> i have a setup i cant reveal details of, but i need to run kpartx from the initrd to make the root device available...  is there a fairly in depth doc on using initramfstools on ubuntu?  i see files in /etc/... but its all blank and im not sure about all the variables
[08:53] <longcat> i extracted the initrd and i see a bunch of scripts there that aren't in /etc/initramfs-tools
[08:54] <ssfdre38> hey how can i force the user root to be used by system on my chroot
[08:54] <metaspike> longcat  "man initrd" and it's subcategories
[08:55] <metaspike> or intramfs rather
[08:56] <longcat> theres a man page for initrd but not initramfs or intramfs
[08:56] <metaspike> ssfdre38, depends what your chrooting into. probably just "su" or "sudo su"
[08:57] <longcat> http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/karmic/man8/initramfs-tools.8.html is good but it lacks info for noobs like what the various variables used in the scripts come from
[08:57] <metaspike> longcat... man initramfs-tools
[08:57] <ssfdre38> metaspike, well sudo needs sudo: must be setuid root
[08:58] <cholby> ubuntu is gay
[08:58] <longcat> i did metaspike ...
[08:59] <longcat> helped a bit
[09:00] <totem> cholby, :D stop it
[09:00] <longcat> i learned that this hack needs to go in local-top
[09:01] <TJRana> Hi I have a question…. see it says my address is <IP_ADDRESS>#53. is that the same as writing <IP_ADDRESS>/53?
[09:01] <metaspike> longcat, considering that intrafms is fairly independant of distro (aside that implimentations differ) the gentoo wiki has a great page on intraramfs http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Initramfs
[09:01] <yo> -hi
[09:01] <msterbrewer> i got this message in terminal what does it mean

[09:02] <TJRana> use sudo in front of what you wrote
[09:02] <ssfdre38> msterbrewer, use sudo

[09:02] <slawekebi> Hi, who use garmin applications (transfer data) ?
[09:02] <TJRana> beat you!
[09:02] <yo> put su or sudo before command
[09:08] <lalagirl> is anyone there?
[09:09] <soreau> nope
[09:09] <rypervenche> tj2: It is not the same. I believe 53 is reffering to the port that DNS uses, so you could say it is <IP_ADDRESS>:53 I suppose.
[09:09] <ssfdre38> no the 1350 people are not online we are just zombies lalagirl
[09:10] <lalagirl> rypervenche so um… the 53 shouldn't be there and it should actually be something else?
[09:11] <lalagirl> ssfdre38 I knew you were a zombie
[09:11] <ssfdre38> i feel like one right now
[09:11] <lalagirl> ssfdre38 I can even smell it from here
[09:11] <soreau> ! help | lalagirl
[09:12] <lalagirl> what is that? ! help
[09:12] <lalagirl> ! help | soreau
[09:13] <rypervenche> lalagirl: It should be there if you are looking at a DNS zone file. Where did you find the information?
[09:13] <soreau> lalagirl: It invokes the bot to post a message
[09:13] <lalagirl> soreau oh that is cool
[09:13] <Kronen> Hi.  I keep getting authentication errors for SSL when my procmail tries to forward email.  Where can I check/change the authentication details it is using?
[09:14] <lalagirl> rypervenche i needed to write some local ip address and this website has an example that shows <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[09:15] <lalagirl> rypervenche: I think my local IP address is <IP_ADDRESS>/?? or somethign but I don't know what to put after the /
[09:16] <newb113> hello all! A question about hosts file
[09:16] <lalagirl> ! help | newb113
[09:16] <newb113> !patience
[09:17] <newb113> lalagirl: will do :)
[09:17] <llutz> lalagirl: usually <IP_ADDRESS>/24   (first 24bits of netmask are set)
[09:17] <lalagirl> newb113 lol
[09:17] <lalagirl> llutz: thank you SO MUCH!!!!
[09:17] <llutz> lalagirl: check your netmask, google for CIDR
[09:20] <newb113> a question on hosts file - I need to redirect all subdomains of a certain domain to localhost, except one (say test.mydomain.com), which should be resolved as usual. So now I have a line <IP_ADDRESS> mydomain.com - but how do I add an exception to this line, how can I force test.mydomain.com to be resolved via DNS?
[09:22] <lalagirl> llutzL it says Net: CIDR Notation would be <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[09:23] <Reaper507> hello all. is it possible to use a repository for older ubuntu?
[09:23] <llutz> lalagirl: right, cpoy/paste error,sry
[09:23] <lalagirl> llutz: it says it would be <IP_ADDRESS>/24 ? wait wait...
[09:23] <lalagirl> llutz the ip address of my server is <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:24] <lalagirl> why would the CIDR notation be <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[09:24] <Wonderhoof> hey #ubuntu, i am having trouble with java. i manually downloaded the .bin file for java x64 and installed it according to the directions on the java website with no errors. but when i try to execute a jar file with the command "java -jar jarfile.jar" it says java isnt installed
[09:24] <Wonderhoof> any ideas?
[09:24] <lalagirl> ! java
[09:24] <Wonderhoof> yes. i'm aware that java is in the repositories. java 64 bit is not
[09:24] <llutz> lalagirl:  <IP_ADDRESS> with netmask <IP_ADDRESS>  would be <IP_ADDRESS>/24  (the whole 192.168.1.*-subnet)
[09:25] <lalagirl> llutz: ohhhh that makes more sense...
[09:25] <llutz> lalagirl: http://www.subnet-calculator.com/
[09:25] <yo>  hi
[09:25] <lalagirl> llutz: I was using the same website hahaha :D
[09:26] <metaspike> Wonderhoof, you also need ia32-libs
[09:26] <metaspike> at least, i did.
[09:26] <Wonderhoof> metaspike, ty
[09:27] <newb113> Wonderhoof: I recall I had to manually set some environment variables when installing (32-bit) Java SDK
[09:28] <Wonderhoof> newb113, any idea on how to retrace your steps?
[09:28] <newb113> Wonderhoof: what do you mean? I tried to run a program that uses Java, and it complained that it couldn't locate it
[09:29] <newb113> Wonderhoof: so I ran export JAVA_HOME=/home/user/Install/jdk1.6.0_30
[09:29] <Wonderhoof> newb113, yes that's where i am currently
[09:29] <Wonderhoof> oh, huh
[09:29] <Wonderhoof> ook that makes sense
[09:30] <newb113> Wonderhoof: the program offered to change one of the few variables, so I guess it can be solved in different ways
[09:30] <newb113> Wonderhoof: worked for me, though
[09:30] <Wonderhoof> i'll give it a shot
[09:33] <lalagirl> llutz thank you so much for your help
[09:34] <Wonderhoof> damn
[09:34] <Wonderhoof> no good
[09:34] <lalagirl> if I installed and configured Postfix, then do I need to install and configure Dovecot?
[09:34] <lalagirl> ! language
[09:34] <Wonderhoof> <.<
[09:35] <Wonderhoof> grow up
[09:36] <Tux> lalagirl, if you're just sending emails you will not need to set up dovecot
[09:36] <airtonix> lalagirl: it instantly makes sense when you know how to count in binary
[09:36] <llutz> lalagirl: if you need a pop3/imap-server, yes
[09:36] <opalepatrick> newby question... where can I add startup apps in 11.10?
[09:36] <opalepatrick> unity interface I think
[09:36] <airtonix> opalepatrick: startup-applications
[09:37] <matrixiumn> hello
[09:37] <lalagirl> opalepatrick I searched this up for you: http://www.liberiangeek.net/2011/09/automatically-startup-applications-for-all-users-in-ubuntu-11-10/
[09:37] <llutz> lalagirl: old but the main steps should still apply http://www.adomas.org/2006/08/postfix-dovecot/
[09:37] <airtonix> lalagirl: or you could just use the startup applications system interface
[09:38] <ribot> hi
[09:38] <ribot> i've installed webmin on ubuntu server, and it automatically set up ssl it seems...so now i'm trying to find out how to use the same ssl configuration for other sites than webmin, but i can't find out where webmin is setup to be accessed through apache, since no other page can be accessed by ssl
[09:38] <airtonix> opalepatrick: alt + f2, type startup, look for the entry labeled: startup applications. ??? . profit
[09:38] <Tux> ribot, afaik Webmin uses its own web server
[09:38] <lalagirl> llutz thanks, I'm looking at it
[09:38] <opalepatrick> thanks a lot lalagirl - tried that from terminal airtonix - command not found?
[09:38] <maxulti> h
[09:38] <llutz> !webmin  | ribot webmin isn't supported here
[09:38] <airtonix> ribot: webmin is not supported in ubuntu.
[09:39] <airtonix> opalepatrick: if you are using unity, then alt + f2 brings up the dash. use it to search for your applications... its pretty simple one is called : "Startup Applications"
[09:40] <ribot> the question is really ssl related, as i tried to enable ssl-default by the server refuses to respond
[09:40] <airtonix> opalepatrick: if you haven't worked it out by now, "Startup Applications" is not a command you can execute
[09:40] <airtonix> ribot: it's actually most likely a webmin problem. you should really use Zentyal instead.
[09:40] <opalepatrick> cheers airtonix - finding my way around :-)
[09:41] <lalagirl> llutz: so if I were to use IMAP because I want to configure a program on another computer to access the emails, then I would have to use Dovecot. am I correct?
[09:41] <llutz> lalagirl: yes
[09:41] <llutz> or any other imap-server
[09:41] <lalagirl> llutz: okay. let me install and configure Dovecot
[09:42] <lalagirl> llutz: i'll be right back
[09:42] <mysticsoul> How do I specify a virtual screen size in Ubuntu 11.10
[09:42] <mysticsoul> ?
[09:43] <lalagirl> Oh and as an offtopic question, How was everyone's Christmas Day yesterday?
[09:43] <jutnux> Brilliant, yours?
[09:44] <lalagirl> jutnux: well, it wasn't extraordinary, but it was alright
[09:44] <lalagirl> jutnux: did you get presents?
[09:44] <jutnux> Indeed I did.
[09:44] <jutnux> I'll PM you as I don't want to stay off topic.
[09:45] <mysticsoul> Hello everyone, how do I specify a virtual screen size in Ubuntu 11.10? I'm using remote desktop from my laptop to my desktop (which is dual screen 1680x1050 on each monitor) and I need to view the entire screen but not scaled.
[09:47] <aBound> Hey all I installed Ubuntu 10.04 and I also the nvidia driver yet I can't get it to work.
[09:48] <mysticsoul> When you say you cannot get it to work, what exactly is happening when you boot up?
[09:49] <metaspike> mysticsoul, what are you using? rdesktop?
[09:49] <aBound> mysticsoul, It stays at the 800x600 resolution.
[09:49] <maxulti> are you able to come till the login screen? if no then it may not be compatible with your hardware
[09:49] <aBound> I have a 15.3" laptop and it has a resolution of 1920x1200.
[09:50] <aBound> From switch I cannot switch from.
[09:50] <lalagirl> aBound: that's a nice laptop you have
[09:50] <mysticsoul> metaspike, yes I am using the remote desktop connection from my laptop running Ubuntu to another desktop running Ubuntu.
[09:50] <aBound> lalagirl, System76 was preconfigured for Ubuntu 11.10 yet is unstable at the moment worked fine on there.
[09:50] <mysticsoul> aBound, have you tried editing xorg.conf?
[09:51] <fishcooker> merry xmas felas
[09:51] <aBound> mysticsoul, I went to nVidia X Server Settings and it's telling me to run as root and to edit my X config file and to restart X.
[09:51] <mysticsoul> aBound, if your laptop was preconfigured for 11.10 then why are you using 10.04 right now?
[09:51] <fishcooker> enjoy your xmas h'day
[09:51] <lalagirl> fishcooker: MERRY XMAS
[09:51] <fishcooker> :p lalagirl
[09:51] <aBound> mysticsoul, Because 11.10 is unstable. It's a bleeding edge release more than a stable release.
[09:52] <aBound> I'd choose stability over instability any day of the week.
[09:52] <aBound> lalagirl, 16GB of unnecessary RAM.
[09:52] <mysticsoul> yeah aBound, try opening a terminal and then type "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" (without the quotes) and then go to the display section and edit the resolution there.
[09:53] <lalagirl> aBound: but that's still impressive for a laptop, what brand/model do you have?
[09:53] <metaspike> mysticsoul, use:   rdesktop -g 1024x768 munter:80   for example
[09:53] <fishcooker> i've done manual upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 for  a specific reason..  i change the repository from lucid to maver. then do # apt-get update --fix-missing && apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:54] <aBound> lalagirl, System76 is the manufacturer they create fully compatible Ubuntu machines www.system76.com I should of gotten the 14 inch due to this keyboard being big for my small hands.
[09:54] <Raliegh> So metaspike, after installing a virtual Ubuntu installation and trying to transcode/get the stream working with the non-free-codecs... No go. Same issue. :(
[09:54] <fishcooker> i've set quiet; force yes but.. why it still prompting for keep default configuration?
[09:54] <aBound> mysticsoul, In ubuntu 11.10 lightdm constantly broke and hung at kernel boot and gave several messages.
[09:54] <mysticsoul> metaspike, what I am after is setting a virtual resolution of say 3360x1050 so that when I remote on to the desktop I can pan around the screen and access all parts of the desktop.
[09:55] <aBound> mysticsoul, As far as I know Ubuntu 11.10 runs on Debian testing...
[09:55] <ribot> it wouldbe nice to know why webmin isn't supported, as nobody seems to think zentyal is better
[09:55] <aBound> mysticsoul, Keyboard shortcuts are broken can't change em either it's a buggy version.
[09:55] <mysticsoul> In previous versions of Ubuntu, one could set Virtual 3360x1050 in xorg.conf, which would allow a higher resolution that what is currently set.
[09:55] <mysticsoul> aBound, have you done a clean install or an upgrade?
[09:56] <aBound> mysticsoul, Clean install good thing for an SSD drive.
[09:56] <aBound> But seems my xorg.conf file is blank I assume that's normal?
[09:56] <cloudgeek> weird problem rvm installed 1.9.2 ruby but when i use ruby -v in bash there is nothin help plz i paste here deatils of bash https://gist.github.com/1520826
[09:56] <mysticsoul> aBound, xorg.conf being blank is normal. You probably won't have an xorg.conf file.
[09:57] <auronandace> !webmin | ribot
[09:57] <llutz> ribot: ".. webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files.."
[09:57] <aBound> mysticsoul, Is there any particular lines I need to add in order for the resolution to change?
[09:58] <aBound> I'm happier using this version because it just works... haha I can then get on with my day when the nvidia driver is fixed.
[09:58] <cloudgeek> plz help me
[09:58] <mysticsoul> aBound, you should try a format and clean install on the SSD. It should be fine.
[09:58] <ribot> it's clearly a conspiracy where zentyal paid ubuntu to advocate them and disable webmin
[09:59] <lalagirl> ! help | cloudgeek
[09:59] <mysticsoul> aBound, are you using the open source nVidia driver or the proprietary one?
[09:59] <aBound> mysticsoul, Do another format and reinstall it?
[09:59] <aBound> haha
[09:59] <lalagirl> sorry my mistake
[09:59] <lalagirl> cloudgeek sorry didn't see your other message
[09:59] <aBound> mysticsoul, I just installed the binary nvidia driver and I'm assuming it has to be configured.
[09:59] <llutz> ribot: hehe - basically its a bad idea, to give any web-application full (root-)access to config-files.
[09:59] <mysticsoul> aBound, you can try that but as a last resort.
[10:00] <mysticsoul> aBound, okay, what happens if you open display settings and try changing the resolution?>
[10:00] <cloudgeek> i am using ubuntu server 11.10 , weird problem rvm installed 1.9.2 ruby but when i use ruby -v in bash there is nothin help plz i paste here deatils of bash https://gist.github.com/1520826
[10:01] <alexander> hey
[10:02] <aBound> mysticsoul, It's saying it appears your graphics driver does not support the necessary extensions to use this tool. Do you want to use your graphics vendor's tool instead?
[10:03] <Guest75959> hey i installed my ubuntu and used the whole hardisk for ubuntu but i want to put back on windows and when i try install windows 7 it cant see my hardisc
[10:03] <Rik_1980> qualcuno può darmi qualche dritta?
[10:03] <aBound> Is there any command to restart X?
[10:03] <sinosoidal> hi everyone. does anyone knows how to make possible to access usb devices without having to write sudo appname all the time  (the app uses libusb to gain access to usb device)
[10:04] <mysticsoul> aBound, try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[10:04] <mysticsoul> metaspike, I tried that command but it does not connect.
[10:04] <aBound> mysticsoul, Let's just hope when I do that nothing fooks up.
[10:04] <aBound> brb
[10:04] <mysticsoul> aBound, you should be fine.
[10:05] <lalagirl> llutz: I'm configuring Dovecot and I'm having some trouble finding the things this tutorial is trying to show me: http://www.server-world.info/en/note?os=Ubuntu_11.04&p=mail&f=2
[10:05] <metaspike> it was just an example. -g HxW was the point
[10:05] <Guest75959> can you guys tell me what to do i used my whole drive for ubuntu but i want to be able to install windows again how can i do that
[10:06] <Guest75959> anyone known?
[10:06] <mysticsoul> metaspike, I've tried the rdesktop command but it does not work. It says "unable to connect". Also, that is not what I'm after. I need the X screen resolution to be set higher but for that I need to set the virtual size to 3360x1050. Is there a way to do that other than through xorg.conf?
[10:08] <lalagirl> Guest75959: what you could do, and this is what I would do, is use a LiveCD to format the entire HDD and then install Windows 7 from there
[10:08] <jutnux> lalagirl: Or you could just use the format  tool on the Windows 7 disc...
[10:08] <lalagirl> Guest75959 or you could use GParted
[10:08] <lalagirl> jutnux that's true.
[10:08] <Guest8473> hi there
[10:08] <lalagirl> Guest8473 Hi
[10:09] <Guest75959> whats this life cd you talk about
[10:09] <meegooo> what's advantages of using this shebang -> #!/usr/bin/env sh  ??
[10:09] <Guest8473> anyone know how to connect from outside computer into virtualbox machine?
[10:09] <lalagirl> Guest8473 just an ordinary Ubuntu installation disk
[10:09] <dragoneye> boot live cd use gparted, shrink linuxpart in the beginning, and add  a new part as sda1 for windows and edit /etc/fstab to suit your new location for linux and upate grub.  probebly easyer to copy your data and do a full reinstall of windows and linux ;-)
[10:09] <llutz> lalagirl: check dovecot.conf for the lines needed, ignore line-numbering
[10:09] <aBound> Ahh, I just love when stuff just doesn't go the right way. :P
[10:09] <lalagirl> Guest75959 just an ordinary Ubuntu installation disk
[10:09] <mysticsoul> aBound, did that work?
[10:09] <lalagirl> Guest75959 LiveCD
[10:09] <Guest75959> alright
[10:09] <Terry> ;-)
[10:10] <bullgard4> What does 'desc' stand for in /etc/mc/mc.ext?
[10:10] <Guest8473> lalagirl : is a bot?
[10:10] <aBound> mysticsoul, Nope gave me errors like implying Failed to load nvidia module or some stuff like that.
[10:10] <aBound> mysticsoul, In my hardware drivers it says: my nvidia drivers are installed.
[10:11] <mysticsoul> aBound, you should try removing and reinstalling the open source drivers.
[10:11] <aBound> mysticsoul, Any way I can install that open source driver?
[10:11] <aBound> ha
[10:11] <lalagirl> Guest8473 huh? I'm not a bot
[10:12] <mysticsoul> aBound, try this but the open source one - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[10:13] <aBound> Downside is I'll eventually have to install the binary nvidia driver.
[10:13] <Guest8473> lalagirl : did you know how to ssh from outside machine into virtualbox machine?
[10:13] <mysticsoul> aBound, you can try with the open source driver. If that works then you can try experimenting further or leave it at that.
[10:14] <lalagirl> Guest8473 uh…. I think so
[10:14] <lalagirl> llutz http://paste.ubuntu.com/783276/
[10:15] <aBound> mysticsoul, Looks like they're already installed I wonder why they aren't being used when I never had the nvidia driver installed.
[10:15] <lalagirl> Guest8473 lets try, what is your virtualbox machine? is it a ubuntu system?
[10:15] <aBound> Beforehand.
[10:15] <aBound> Well, my nVidia graphics card is a 580M 1.5GB be a waste not to have that driver.
[10:15] <farrukhjon> hi all!
[10:16] <mysticsoul> aBound, you will have to uninstall the proprietary drivers and the open source ones and then try reinstalling the open source ones only.
[10:16] <Guest75959> i cant install wow anymore used to be able with winetricks but it dont work anymore
[10:16] <Guest8473> lalagirl : yes it is ubuntu and I'm using sun oracle virtualbox
[10:16] <Guest75959> how can i install wow
[10:16] <aBound> mysticsoul, Will do.
[10:16] <mysticsoul> aBound, once you have rebooted and confirmed the open source ones work then you can try removing them and try the binary ones.
[10:16] <llutz> lalagirl: check /etc/dovecot/conf.d/*  for more configs
[10:17] <Guest75959> i would like to install wow on ubuntu how can i do this now
[10:17] <lalagirl> llutz: okay
[10:17] <lalagirl> Guest8473: okay so open up terminal
[10:17] <aBound> It's so hard to move around with a 800x600 resolution.
[10:17] <Guest8473> lalagirl : okay
[10:17] <Guest8473> lalagirl : done
[10:17] <Guest8473> lalagirl : next?
[10:18] <farrukhjon> who known how do best the sound of ubuntu+intel sound chip ?
[10:18] <owenll> Guest75959: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft
[10:18] <llutz> lalagirl: since the layout of configuration-files may change, you shouldn't use tutorials like yours using "change line-number xx into blah". read more general sources to get an idea what you have to do
[10:18] <lalagirl> Guest8473: then you type "ssh username@ipaddress" fill in username and ip address of the machine you are trying to access
[10:19] <Guest8473> lalagirl : but even though I ping the ip address from my machine to this virtualbox machine, it won't word
[10:19] <lalagirl> Guest8473: it's usually the first user you created for that machine.. and the ip address depends on the location of the machine you are trying to access
[10:19] <Guest8473> work *
[10:19] <aBound> brb in maybe 30 mins or less.
[10:20] <Guest8473> lalagirl : I can ping from my virtualbox to another machine on the outside
[10:20] <Guest8473> but not vice versa
[10:20]  * mysticsoul waves goodbye
[10:20] <llutz> Guest8473: you need to setup bridged networking for the vm
[10:21] <Guest8473> llutz : how to do that? :)
[10:21] <llutz> Guest8473: edit vm setup in virtualbox
[10:21] <lalagirl> llutz: I try to work my way using the simplest way possible… that's why I rely those tutorials
[10:22] <llutz> Guest8473: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads#manual
[10:22] <lalagirl> llutz: that's mainly why I do that… but once again, I'm new to all of this… so why not?
[10:22] <mysticsoul> Hello everyone, can someone tell me whether it is possible to set a virtual screen size without putting it in xorg.conf.
[10:22] <lalagirl> llutz: and the tutorial is not thaaaat old… it's only one version shy from what i am working with
[10:23] <lalagirl> mysticsoul: what program are you using for the virtual screen?
[10:23] <mysticsoul> lalagirl, let me explain in detail what I am trying to do.
[10:24] <llutz> lalagirl: it might be not too old but it doesn't work with actual versions. so ask the author how to fix
[10:24] <lalagirl> setting up a server is HARD WORK! :(
[10:24] <mysticsoul> lalagirl, I am trying to remote using VNC from my laptop running Ubuntu 11.10 to my desktop running the same OS. My laptop resolution is 1280x800 and my desktop is a dual screen running 2 monitors at 1680x1050 each.
[10:25] <mysticsoul> lalagirl, I want to be able to set a higher resolution on my laptop screen so that when I remote on I can pan across to view the entire desktop screen./
[10:25] <Guest8473> llutz : how about using host only network?
[10:26] <mysticsoul> lalagirl, I know this was possible using xorg.conf wherein adding a line Virtual 3360x1050 would then allow you to set a higher resolution and pan across the desktop. Is this possible in Ubuntu 11.10?
[10:27] <lalagirl> mysticsoul: um.. without xorg.conf we're running out of options… i'm not much of an expert, but what i might also try doing is use a different vnc client?
[10:28] <lalagirl> mysticsoul: is that doable?
[10:28] <mysticsoul> lalagirl, this is not about a vnc client, this is about virtual screen resolution on my laptop.
[10:29] <etfb> What's the latest news on using iTunes or equivalent in Ubuntu?  Last I checked, it was impossible.  I want my daughter to ditch her Windows partition for a full reinstall of Lubuntu, but she has an iPod Touch.  What are the options?
[10:29] <ThinkT510> !itunes | etfb
[10:30] <ThinkT510> !ipod | etfb
[10:30] <etfb> But how good are they?  When I say "impossible", I mean that all those existed but they were so bad that nobody in their right mind would ever touch them.  This was maybe two years ago.
[10:30] <lalagirl> um...
[10:30] <lalagirl> mysticsoul: okay um….
[10:31] <cliffybx> arev there other alternative to ubuntu software centre?
[10:31] <mysticsoul> lalagirl, I know I've been trying to figure this one out for ages but cannot get a concrete answer.
[10:32] <ribot> i've tried to installed ssl on apache2 but now i get error 107: net::ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR
[10:32] <lalagirl> mysticsoul: okay maybe you can set xrandr commands in .xprofile
[10:32] <chiiiiiz> hello!!!
[10:32] <chiiiiiz> can anyone help me with a BIG problem : bug during ntfs partition resizing
[10:32] <mysticsoul> lalagirl, how do I set a virtual resolution using xrandr.
[10:33] <chiiiiiz> the partition is a VISTA partition, now the HD is mounted on my ubuntu desktop
[10:34] <chiiiiiz> gparted says that there is no file system, I need to recover the infos
[10:34] <lalagirl> mysticsoul: okay um...
[10:34] <chiiiiiz> and the content of course...
[10:34] <lalagirl> mysticsoul: A user’s ~/.xprofile file is executed on Xorg startup if it exists and is executable. You can copy and paste XRandR command line strings into this file so they’re executed when you log in.
[10:34] <lalagirl> mysticsoul: But the trick is that you're not changing xorg.conf
[10:35] <etfb> chiiiiiz: if you didn't make backups before fiddling with your NTFS drive from within Linux, you may be about to have a bad day.
[10:35] <lalagirl> mysticsoul: I think...
[10:35] <mysticsoul> lalagirl, I know that bit but I wanted to know how to set a virtual resolution using xrandr?
[10:35] <lalagirl> mysticsoul: xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 800x600
[10:36] <mysticsoul> lalagirl, thanks, i'll try that.
[10:37] <lalagirl> mysticsoul: does it work?
[10:38] <mysticsoul> lalagirl, I'll let you know in 5.
[10:38] <lalagirl> mysticsoul: okay
[10:39] <smokycat> i love ubuntu and you

[10:40] <dragoneye> lalagirl: :-)
[10:40] <aBound> I'm about to blow a new head gasket. hehe
[10:40] <hot2trot> dragoneye: it's just that it's for an external hard drive, and I have it connected to a server... so the bottle neck in speed will be bandwidth
[10:40] <dragoneye> dont, its expensive
[10:41] <truesky> good morning everyone
[10:41] <hot2trot> dragoneye: I was wondering if there were any other reasons not to use NTFS... assuming it is even slower than ext4
[10:41] <f11f12> how can I disable my trackpad when an external mouse is connected?
[10:41] <dragoneye> hot2trot: so you want it as an external buffer, not a boot drive?
[10:41] <aBound> dragoneye, Indeed it is.
[10:41] <hot2trot> dragoneye: don't know what an external buffer is... but no I would not boot off it

[10:42] <hot2trot> and I seem to be able to read and write to it... so I can't imagine any problems
[10:42] <dragoneye> as long you dont worry about the attributes of the files then you can use ntfs

[10:59] <lalagirl> MK-- http://www.pendrivelinux.com/downloads/Universal-USB-Installer/Universal-USB-Installer-<IP_ADDRESS>.exe
[10:59] <MK--> i have that
[10:59] <MK--> and clicked on download the iso
[11:00] <msterbrewer> windows 7 is fine ...........when it works
[11:00] <iceroot> !enter | MK--
[11:00] <iceroot> msterbrewer: and offtopic here
[11:00] <MK--> but it says http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso
[11:00] <MK--> The requested URL /natty/ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso was not found on this server.
[11:00] <iceroot> MK--: natty is 11.04 and not 11.10
[11:01] <iceroot> MK--: oneiric is 11.10
[11:01] <MK--> hmm ic
[11:01] <iceroot> !download | MK--
[11:01] <MK--> that's an error on their end then
[11:01] <lalagirl> MK-- just put the iso in the same directory as the Universal-USB-Installer-x.x.x.x.exe
[11:01] <Seveas> iceroot, heh, the links on releases.ubuntu.com are broken apparently
[11:01] <Seveas> MK--, which one did tou want to download? 11.10 (Oneiric) or 11.04 (Natty)?
[11:01] <MK--> 11.10
[11:02] <MK--> btw how do i mdsum on windows?
[11:02] <lalagirl> MK-- you said you wanted 11.04
[11:02] <Seveas> http://releases.ubuntu.com/11.10/ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso
[11:02] <MK--> sorry i wanted the latest one
[11:02] <maxulti> i have another suggestion regarding usage of pendrive  .You can use wubi installer to install onto a pendrive.
[11:02] <MK--> 64bit
[11:02] <SpiderFred> hi use ubuntu lucid(10.04 I guess) is there a way to safely upgrade to last distro? dist-upgrade doesnt work
[11:02] <lalagirl> Seveas thats if you use 32bit computing
[11:02] <MK--> just so i'm being clear - i'm using a usb stick to install onto my own pc
[11:02] <Seveas> sorry, this is the 64bit one: http://releases.ubuntu.com/11.10/ubuntu-11.10-desktop-amd64.iso
[11:02] <MK--> but the usb stick simply won't run
[11:02] <iceroot> Seveas: the links are fine
[11:02] <MK--> ok let me try redownloading it
[11:03] <lalagirl> SpiderFred sudo apt-get upgrade
[11:03] <iceroot> MK--: http://releases.ubuntu.com/oneiric/ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso
[11:03] <Seveas> try burning it to cd/dvd instead of usb
[11:03] <lalagirl> SpiderFred does that work?
[11:03] <Seveas> iceroot, the links on releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ are broken
[11:03] <Seveas> the links on releases.ubuntu.com/11.04/ are fine
[11:03] <darkowlzz> Seveas, hi
[11:03] <iceroot> Seveas: no http://releases.ubuntu.com/oneiric/
[11:03] <iceroot> Seveas: they are pointing to http://releases.ubuntu.com/oneiric/ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso
[11:03] <iceroot> Seveas: and of course the amd64 version
[11:03] <lalagirl> SpiderFred: open up Terminal and type in "sudo apt-get upgrade"
[11:04] <bullgard4> Where can I find a detailed description of the Banshee 2.2.1 plugin »Stream recorder«? I managed once to generate a record on my hard disk. But no more.
[11:04] <Seveas> iceroot, those are fine too. The ones that are broken are on http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/
[11:04] <SpiderFred> lalagirl, I can upgrade some programs but some arent upgrading like firefox
[11:04] <MK--> sorry i'm confused now
[11:04] <MK--> i have an i7 processor so i want 64bit - which one do i download?
[11:04] <Seveas> MK--, if your USB stick doesn't work, burn the iso to cd or dvd and try that
[11:04] <iceroot> Seveas: they are fine too
[11:04] <lalagirl> SpiderFred you can always upgrade firefox later, i think right?
[11:04] <iceroot> Seveas: http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso
[11:04] <Seveas> iceroot, no they are not. Try them.
[11:04] <iceroot> Seveas: i did
[11:04] <Seveas> iceroot, except that there's no link to that
[11:04] <lalagirl> MK-- you want a 64bit version
[11:05] <lalagirl> MK-- amd64
[11:05] <iceroot> Seveas: ctrl +f5 to fix your caching
[11:05] <Seveas> the link points to http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso
[11:05] <MK--> but mine isn't amd - it's intel 64 bit
[11:05] <iceroot> Seveas: they are fine, i tried them
[11:05] <Seveas> MK--, 'amd64' is merely the architecture name
[11:05] <iceroot> MK--: no you want amd64
[11:05] <lalagirl> MK-- amd64 is an architecture
[11:05] <Seveas> other distros call them x86_64
[11:05] <SpiderFred> lalagirl, its just that many programs on my computer stop upgrading and when I run dist-upgrade its said there is nothing to do
[11:05] <MK--> aah ok
[11:06] <iceroot> Seveas: i rechecked all links, all are fine so i guess its a caching-rpoblem on your site
[11:07] <Seveas> iceroot, intriguing, the links are fine now. I swear they were broken before though :)
[11:08] <lalagirl> SpiderFred i'm not so sure whats wrong… try using terminal and type in "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get upgrade" and then copy everything and paste it on paste.ubuntu.com and give us the link so we can take a look
[11:08] <maxulti> i hav e an issue with ubuntu 10.04 not detecting my touchpad.. tried out many solutions but it all failed
[11:11] <ManDay> Does anyone know a service such as Google-Voice-And-Talk which is well supported for Linux and Windows (for example by pidgin)?
[11:11] <lalagirl> maxulti what laptop do you have
[11:11] <bullgard4> maxulti: Please describe the error messages which you obtained, in detail.
[11:11] <iceroot> ManDay: i guess jabber has something about that
[11:12] <SpiderFred> lalagirl, here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/783327/
[11:12] <lalagirl> ManDay Google Voice and Google Talk?
[11:12] <iceroot> ManDay: if you mean something like teamspeak, skype and so on
[11:12] <ispirto> hello, i want a software can access to the files of a user and i want other users would not access files or directory of eachother. how can i do this?
[11:12] <lalagirl> SpiderFred: that's only a peice of the code
[11:12] <ManDay> lalagirl: Google Talk is just the "chat" - I need something similar to Google Voice
[11:13] <lalagirl> ManDay what's wrong with the web interface?
[11:13] <ManDay> iceroot: Something like sype, just better supported.
[11:13] <iceroot> ispirto: the normal file-permissions
[11:13] <msterbrewer> skype works
[11:13] <iceroot> !permissions | ispirto
[11:13] <ManDay> lalagirl: It's a plugin... Pretty annoying
[11:13] <maxulti> i have a dell XPS laptop ( config : i5 ,4gb ram  ,500gb HDD) I am running ubuntu 10.04 ... It was working fine and due an improper shut down it didnt work since then..
[11:13] <almoxarife> !ot | manday
[11:13] <SpiderFred> lalagirl, thats all output I got after running sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[11:13] <ispirto> iceroot, i created a group called hosting and added users to that group, also the software is in that group
[11:14] <iceroot> ispirto: so they all have the same group-permissions
[11:14] <amaury> bonjour tous
[11:14] <ManDay> almoxarife: I'm looking for Ubn Software. Hardly OT.
[11:14] <lalagirl> ManDay try "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ken-vandine/notifiers" and "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gvoice-notifier"
[11:14] <ispirto> iceroot, yeah, in order to software access those files. but i don't want other users can access those files
[11:14] <ManDay> lalagirl: Does that thing have an info page?
[11:15] <iceroot> ispirto: then dont put the users in that group
[11:15] <iceroot> ispirto: and dont set the "world readable" (see link from ubottu )
[11:15] <lalagirl> ManDay https://launchpad.net/gvoice-notifier
[11:15] <lalagirl> ManDay That's all I know
[11:15] <ispirto> iceroot, i did chmod o-rwx /dir
[11:16] <ispirto> i guess just don't adding the other users to same group would solve it
[11:16] <ManDay> lalagirl: Looks good. Thank you.
[11:16] <lalagirl> SpiderFred: when you use terminal, save the file, click ctrl+s or somethign to save it as a text file so you can get the whole output
[11:16] <ispirto> but the question is how the software would access those files
[11:16] <lalagirl> ManDay Anytime
[11:16] <ManDay> After all, I'd still prefer a working, dedicated Voice/Video chat client which is not Skype, though
[11:17] <ManDay> But for the time being, that notifier is a great help
[11:17] <Seveas> ManDay, try ekiga
[11:17] <ispirto> can i add one user to multiple groups
[11:17] <Seveas> ispirto, yes
[11:18] <ispirto> hmm can i add one folder to multiple groups?
[11:18] <ManDay> Seveas: Which service does Ekiga use?
[11:18] <lalagirl> maxulti: sudo modprobe psmouse proto=imps
[11:18] <Seveas> ManDay, SIP
[11:19] <ManDay> Seveas: But which *service* (id est account management and name resolution)?
[11:19] <SpiderFred> lalagirl, I dont know what you mean, I pasted all output that I got from my command there's nothing more
[11:19] <Seveas> any sip service. ekiga.net for instance
[11:19] <maxulti> lalagirl : i did it but nothing happened.. no error message and the touchpad didnt not work
[11:20] <lalagirl> maxulti: synclient TouchpadOff=0
[11:21] <msterbrewer> i have a strange question
[11:21] <msterbrewer> why is one file of mine in hebrew even though i specifically installed ubuntu in english
[11:21] <msterbrewer> i think its the systems folder
[11:22] <msterbrewer> its at the top under devices
[11:22] <maxulti> lalagirl , i got this error message :  "Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?" on terminal
[11:22] <Corey> msterbrewer: How sure are you it's in Hebrew?
[11:22] <Corey> msterbrewer: And I believe Ubuntu supports UTF8 by default now.
[11:23] <bullgard4> Where can I find a detailed description of the Banshee 2.2.1 extension »StreamRecorder«? I managed once to generate a record on my hard disk. But no more.
[11:24] <lalagirl> maxulti: i'm finding that this problem is happening to a lot of people
[11:24] <maxulti> ok..
[11:26] <ispirto> iceroot, how to achieve this: how to achieve this: http://pastebin.com/fEKexUxM
[11:28] <Seveas> msterbrewer, there's no such thing as a 'devices' folder or a 'system' folder.
[11:28] <Seveas> what's the full path?
[11:28] <lalagirl> maxulti: this has to do with xorg.conf or something
[11:28] <lalagirl> hey can anyone help me and maxulti out?
[11:30] <slawekebi> Hi, who use garmin for transferring data - please send me private message
[11:30] <share> whats the meaning of "gnome 2 fork"?
[11:31] <msterbrewer> ok how do i update my flash player on ubuntu
[11:32] <msterbrewer> i tried going to their site but none of the options were .deb
[11:32] <msterbrewer> and all 3 options which i downloaded wouldnt install
[11:32] <share> msterbrewer: install flash from the repositories
[11:32] <OerHeks> msterbrewer, use the latest from softwarecentre
[11:32] <msterbrewer> ok
[11:33] <share> msterbrewer: always try to install from repositories
[11:33] <msterbrewer> didnt think of it
[11:33] <maxulti> lalagirl  , ok i couldnt find the xorg.conf file
[11:33] <share> then ppa or .deb file :)
[11:33] <lalagirl> maxulti maybe that's why?
[11:33] <insectatorious> Guys, I have a long question - http://paste.ubuntu.com/783354/
[11:34] <Seveas> insectatorious, I have a short answer: no.
[11:34] <share> msterbrewer: open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin
[11:34] <share> that's it
[11:34] <msterbrewer> k
[11:34] <lalagirl> maxulti: okay try this
[11:35] <lalagirl> maxulti: sudo service gdm stop
[11:35] <lalagirl> maxulti: sudo Xorg -configure
[11:35] <lalagirl> maxulti: sudo service gdm start
[11:35] <insectatorious> Seveas: so basically, the only way is to do a clean install of 10.04?
[11:35] <share> maxulti: do you use nvidia?
[11:35] <maxulti> lalagirl : yeah i do have nvidia
[11:35] <share> lol
[11:35] <Seveas> insectatorious, that would be the easiest solution
[11:36] <Seveas> as long as they tick the box to leave their homedirs intact.
[11:36] <share> maxulti: first ... sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf ... then sudo nvidia-xconfig
[11:36] <lalagirl> [code]this is code[/code]
[11:36] <share> and there u go.. you have a new xorg.conf
[11:36] <Seveas> and have a list of software to reinstall (dpkg --get-selections)
[11:36] <lalagirl> it doesn't work on here
[11:37] <Seveas> lalagirl, no, irc isn't a forum :-)
[11:37] <insectatorious> Seveas: much obliged...
[11:37] <xukun> I trying to install ubuntu on a gpt disk 1mb for bios_grub flag and with raid 0 and lvm but grub will not boot after restart. I get a messageL Can not find device uuid ....  Please help me if you can. I trying this now for 2 days.
[11:37] <share> lalagirl: he didnt need to stop gdm lolol
[11:37] <dkov> Seveas, what about adding the extra CD [9.10 and 10.04] in the repository? this way synaptic can use them.
[11:37] <lalagirl> share: I'm no expert like you are, mr. smarty pants
[11:38] <share> lol
[11:38] <insectatorious> dkov: is that re: my question?
[11:38] <share> now maxulti is stuck in tty
[11:38] <share> in panic
[11:38] <dkov> insectatorious, it is kind of
[11:38] <Seveas> dkov, those are the alternate cd's. They have no alternate CD's :)
[11:39] <insectatorious> yeah...stupid me sent them the main cds....gron
[11:39] <dkov> insectatorious, I read something about offline update but can't remember where and so far can't find it.
[11:39] <dkov> Seveas, I see
[11:40] <xukun> anyone please
[11:40] <share> !anyone
[11:40] <dkov> insectatorious, where are you parents from?

[11:41] <Seveas> easy on the triggers share, the question about the parents is related to upgrade options...

[11:42] <sferauaa> Hello, I'm having trouble with wireless on my new laptop, would anyone be able to help me with this?
[11:42] <share> Ho0yo188
[11:42] <share> :p
[11:43] <Seveas> sferauaa, maybe. If you have some more details.
[11:43] <msterbrewer> is it dell
[11:43] <share> Is it me or because of Unity there is less people helping
[11:44] <sferauaa> Seveas: when I run lspci, it shows it as 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM57780 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe (rev 01)
[11:44] <share> or maybe it's because Christmas
[11:44]  * sattu94 :)
[11:44] <msterbrewer> i dont celebrate chrismas
[11:44] <msterbrewer> im jewish
[11:44] <Seveas> sferauaa, that's your wired connection, not the wireless one
[11:44] <Seveas> share, I'd blame it on christmas :)
[11:45] <sferauaa> Seveas Aah that makes sense, what other output would you like me to give you?
[11:45] <Seveas> sferauaa, most built-in wireless things are actually usb devices. Try lsusb.
[11:45] <mcbaine1> I have just installed Ubuntu 11.10 on my desktop and want to Install all of the MOZILLA programs  ... do i have to do this individually or is there a Suite-install program ??
[11:45] <Seveas> sferauaa, also, try explaining the problem ;)
[11:46] <Seveas> mcbaine1, individually. But it's just firefox and thunderbird, right?
[11:46] <share> mcbaine1: add PPA for Firefox and Thunderbird :) and sudo apt-get install firefox thunderbird
[11:47] <mcbaine1> no sunbird, seamonkey  .. i basically wanna be a mozilla tester ??
[11:47] <Seveas> share, why a ppa?
[11:47] <sferauaa> Seveas, here's the output of lsusb: http://paste.ubuntu.com/783368/ and basically what's happening is when I go to the network manager applet it shows up as if the computer only has a wired ethernet card and not a wireless card
[11:47] <share> Seveas: to get updates :)
[11:47] <raven> (g)rsync - how to make empty files after finished sync to list dates of backup? anything like touch `date +%F` is not working
[11:47] <sferauaa> ie, when I right click it there's not option to disable wireless, only to disable networkknig altogether
[11:47] <aBound> Yay! Finally got the nVidia drivers installed for 10.04.
[11:47] <xukun> Seveas, do u by any chance know thing or 2 about raid configuration with gpt?
[11:47] <Seveas> raven, touch "$(date +%F)"
[11:48] <Seveas> sferauaa, Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0bda:0138 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.  seems to be it. Try searching help.ubunut.com for realtek.
[11:48] <mcbaine1> Right, no one is talking to me so i will install anyway.... and go to a #mozilla channel..
[11:48] <sferauaa> Seveas, thanks for your help! will have a look now
[11:48] <Seveas> sferauaa, there's a driver you need. It may be as simple as launching jockey and clicking the right buttons
[11:49] <sinosoidal_> hi everyone. how can I access a usb device using libusb without having to write sudo?
[11:49] <lalagirl> bye everyone!!! goodbye for now
[11:49] <Seveas> sinosoidal_, maybe chown'ing the relevant device to your user will do it. Or maybe there's a group you need to be member of
[11:50] <lalagirl> llutz bye
[11:50] <Seveas> xukun, not much I'm afraid.
[11:50] <raven> Seveas, same effect with the `` syntax: it only creates a file named $(date +%F)
[11:50] <xukun> Seveas, np
[11:50] <sinosoidal_> Seveas, do you think I will need to change udev rules for this?
[11:50] <Seveas> raven, did you use double quotes?
[11:51] <Seveas> raven, and how are you running this?
[11:51] <aBound> Ubuntu 10.04 rocks stable as a rock.
[11:51] <share> aBound: agree
[11:51] <Seveas> sinosoidal_, maybe. It's hard to give an accurate answer without more info (like current owner/group/permissions/name of the device node)
[11:51] <Kartagis> deactivating device (reason 'managed') <--- I get this when I hook up my iPhone. what is this?
[11:51] <raven> Seveas, yes i did - i use grsync and put it into special options to "run before sync"
[11:51] <share> aBound: the best would be Ubuntu 12.04 without Unity
[11:52] <aBound> share, Probably would but waiting till 12.04 stable enough would be nice.
[11:52] <Seveas> raven, ah, that doesn't run it via a proper shell I guess.
[11:52] <Seveas> I don't know grsync that well
[11:52] <raven> Seveas, ok but how to do it without a shell?
[11:52] <sinosoidal_> Seveas, crw-rw-r--  1 root root 189, 17 2011-12-26 09:44 018

[11:52] <share> Unity is ruining Ubuntu for many people
[11:53] <share> im stuck with Maverick
[11:53] <Seveas> sinosoidal_, yeah, chown for now and udev rules change later seems to be what you need
[11:53] <aBound> I'm on Lucid
[11:53] <Seveas> share, unity is getting better though. I found it unusable in 11.04 and somewhat ok in 11.10
[11:53] <aBound>  Downside is I'll have to reinstall it tomorrow.
[11:53] <Seveas> though I'm mostly using a zillion terminator windows anyway :)
[11:53] <aBound> Was fooking around with settings and of course messed up something.
[11:54] <aBound> But found an awesome ppa for updating the nvidia drivers.
[11:54] <Seveas> raven, wrap your touch in a small shellscript and have grsync execute that
[11:55] <raven> Seveas, ok seems no way without a script. how to give the preset name to that script to write it to the filename too? (have several jobs in grsync)
[11:57] <Seveas> raven, http://paste.pocoo.org/show/526012/. Then call it as scriptname_here jobname_here
[11:58] <raven> Seveas, ok i'll try that tnx for now
[11:58] <aBound> Dang, this sucks with 10.04 I have to find all these updated pkgs.
[11:58] <aBound> brb
[11:58] <Seveas> aBound, be brave and update :)
[11:58]  * Seveas is running 12.04 alpha already :)
[11:59] <aBound> Seveas, HA! wasn't expecting you to be running that.
[11:59] <aBound> brb
[12:00] <debianed> how do i start httrack gui on ubuntu?
[12:00] <aBound> Seveas, How stable is the alpha?
[12:01] <Seveas> so far the only problem I have is that evolution doesn't recognize any ssl certificate
[12:01] <Seveas> unity is much less crashy than in 11.10
[12:01] <debianed> anyone knows how to start httrack gui?
[12:01] <aBound> I prefer thunderbird over evolution. :P
[12:01] <Seveas> I hate thunderbird
[12:01] <Seveas> Not that evo is much better.  Does 12.04 support proper graphical boot splashes?
[12:03] <debianed> sveneas:that i goptta try
[12:03] <Seveas> aBound, all ubuntu versions since 6.something do
[12:04] <aBound> Seveas, When I was using 11.10 the resolution was all fooked up.
[12:04] <aBound> Seveas, Somebody said cause nvidia drivers didn't support KMS.
[12:04] <Seveas> aBound, if that's what's caused your problem, it's unlikely to be fixed already
[12:05] <aBound> Seveas, My graphical boot splash is completely black on this version.
[12:05] <aBound> Blah!
[12:05] <raven> Seveas, hm i do not find out how to run this script - no sh, no bash, no ./script.sh - errors all the time. man does not help too....
[12:05] <aBound> I'll have to give 12.04 a test run in virtualbox tomorrow it's 4am.
[12:06] <Seveas> 'night
[12:06] <debianed> installed,success
[12:06] <aBound> Have a goodnight Seveas
[12:06] <Seveas> it's 1pm here in the civilized world already. Family visits soon... oh they joys of christmas :)
[12:06] <Seveas> raven, did you make it executable?
[12:07] <Seveas> if so, try this as command: /full/path/to/yourscript.sh. Otherwise do: bash /full/path/to/script.sh
[12:09] <xukun> If I do mdadm --examine --scan I get this as result. ARRAY /dev/md/0 metadata=1.2 UUID=37ee64cf:3d91b378:74487e62:e933d00a name=ubuntu:0 this can be right? using raid 0 of 2 disk
[12:09] <pooltable> help where to download steam and install it ?
[12:10] <raven> Seveas, yes
[12:10] <Seveas> xukun, that can be right. It detected a raid array.
[12:10] <Seveas> pooltable, https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_under_Linux
[12:11] <Odaym> if I wanted my 'cd' command to execute 'ls' after its execution, how would that alias be/
[12:12] <Seveas> alias cd='cd $1; ls'
[12:12] <Corey> That would get very annoying, very fast. :-)
[12:12] <Odaym> really?
[12:12] <xukun> Seveas, but why does it says ARRAY /dev/md/0 should't it say ARRAY /dev/md0 sins that is what I created with mdamd?
[12:13] <llutz_> $1 will get expanded when creating the alias, not when calling it. use a function for this
[12:13] <Seveas> Odaym, actually, this will work better: alias cd='cd "$1"; ls'
[12:13] <Corey> Odaym: Quite.  If I want to see what's in the directory, it's a quick ls<enter> away.
[12:13] <Seveas> llutz_, no, that's why I put the alias in single quotes, not double :)
[12:13] <Odaym> I'm used to ls'ing also..
[12:13] <Seveas> I used to have this alias
[12:13] <Seveas> it got annoying within a week
[12:13] <Odaym> llutz is right though, because look at this
[12:13] <Odaym> http://www.talug.org/events/20030813/cmdline_tips_n_tricks_aug03.html
[12:14] <Odaym> the guy uses a function for it
[12:14] <FloodBot1> Odaym: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:14] <Seveas> Odaym, no, llutz_ is not right. $1 doesn't get expanded in single quotes
[12:14] <Petter> hi. Somebody knows where can I see the kernel messages? I saw some 'trans replayed' messages and I'd like to review the whole thing.
[12:15] <Seveas> Petter, this command: dmesg | less
[12:15] <raven> Seveas, it is executable
[12:15] <stilln00b> hey huys
[12:15] <stilln00b> i've got a prob
[12:16] <Petter> Where does Ubuntu (11.10) store it?
[12:16] <stilln00b> with my BSNL EVDO modem
[12:16] <llutz_> Seveas: you cannot call bash aliase with parameter ($1...$*), it won't work
[12:16] <Seveas> Petter, the kernel has a ring buffer that stores these messages. The dmesg command displays the contents of this buffer.
[12:17] <Seveas> llutz_, it works. I tried it before pasting it in here
[12:17] <stilln00b> the OS is not recognising the modem device and the net is not working
[12:17] <Seveas> http://paste.pocoo.org/show/526018/

[12:22] <amaroks> Hello, in settings I'mtryin to make my laptop touchpad faster it just doesn't get any faster , a normal mouse gets faster but not touchpad
[12:24] <silv3r_m00n> if I compile a .c file on a separate partition (other than where ubuntu is installed) and try to run it , it says permission denied , how can I fix it ?
[12:24] <Seveas> silv3r_m00n, is that a fat or ntfs partition perhaps?
[12:25] <silv3r_m00n> its an ext4 partition and fstab options for it are errors=remount-ro,auto,exec,rw,user
[12:26] <auronandace> silv3r_m00n: ro and rw?
[12:26] <auronandace> silv3r_m00n: ah sorry, remount-ro
[12:26] <Seveas> silv3r_m00n, ok, and how did you compile the file?
[12:26] <silv3r_m00n> yup
[12:27] <silv3r_m00n> gcc main.c
[12:27] <silv3r_m00n> the file just has 1 line printf("Hello World");
[12:27] <Seveas> yeah, that won't work
[12:27] <silv3r_m00n> ofcourse with the int main
[12:27] <silv3r_m00n> compiles and run on ubuntu partition but not on any other partition
[12:27] <aguitel> how i know the video driver are in use in my system?
[12:28] <raven> Seveas, ?
[12:28] <silv3r_m00n> Seveas: it just says bash: ./a.out: Permission denied
[12:29] <Seveas> silv3r_m00n, what does 'file a.out; ls -la a.out' say?
[12:29] <silv3r_m00n> a.out: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, not stripped
[12:29] <silv3r_m00n> -rwxr-xr-x 1 enlightened enlightened 13501 2011-12-26 17:39 a.out
[12:30] <Seveas> hm. My first guess was (and all evidence except your mount options point to) noexec in the mount options
[12:30] <Seveas> is it currently mounted with noexec, despite your fstab entry being different?
[12:30] <silv3r_m00n> Seveas: how can I verify it ?
[12:31] <Seveas> silv3r_m00n, run mount with no options, pastebin output
[12:31] <blackshirt> Check permition
[12:31] <silv3r_m00n> cool : dev/sda8 on /media/2edfb41d-54f4-478e-8cc0-0fe9864596a8 type ext4 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,errors=remount-ro,commit=0)
[12:31] <silv3r_m00n> it is indeed noexec
[12:31] <Seveas> mount -o remount,exec /dev/sda8
[12:31] <ariel011> does anybody know hoe to recover the firefox bookmarks from ubuntu
[12:32] <matrixiumn> hello
[12:32] <silv3r_m00n> Seveas: ya , works perfectly , files execute very well
[12:32] <silv3r_m00n> but why isn't the fstab coming in effect ?
[12:33] <Seveas> ariel011, they're in ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile id>/bookmarks*.json
[12:33] <silv3r_m00n> is it because of this errors=remount-ro,auto,exec,rw,user   the user option makes it noexec , so should I put the exec after the user ?
[12:34] <Seveas> ariel011, they're in ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile id>/bookmarks.html actually. the jsonfiles are in the bookmarkbackups directory.
[12:34] <Seveas> silv3r_m00n, maybe. I always stick to just 'defaults' for mount options
[12:35] <theishi> I want to have something similiar to google's home page, but running on my local computer for privacy reasons. Anyone know any programs, or html code that I can put on my local computer that will display the latest news from sources that I choose?
[12:36] <theishi> I was hoping to browse this using a webbrowser. I use firefox btw
[12:36] <amitz> liferay, but it's a bit difficult to configure :-))
[12:36] <Seveas> theishi, of you're just after news feeds and nobody has a better answer: try liferea for reading RSS feeds instead of a browser with a homepage
[12:36] <jutnux> Google Reader \o/
[12:37] <Seveas> jutnux, if the google homepage gives him privacy goosebumps, google reader won't help :)
[12:37] <jutnux> Security reason of what? :|
[12:37] <share> Anyone care to explain what is a "fork of" eg "fork of gnome 2"?
[12:38] <Seveas> a changed version
[12:38] <jutnux> Baiscally a copy share.
[12:38] <jutnux> In a VCS (version control system) if you fork something you have a copy of it to change to your will.
[12:38] <StevenR> share: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fork_%28software_development%29
[12:38] <Seveas> share, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fork_%28software_development%29
[12:39] <Seveas> StevenR, heh :)
[12:39] <theishi> Seveas: yeah I think jutnux meant that as a joke :-)... I am considering the RSS reader, but I never really think to open it, I just open up the browser and then remember I should take a look at what is going on
[12:39] <Seveas> Just add enough things to your rss reader so you'll miss it if you don't have it open
[12:40] <Seveas> I read a truckload of comics via my rss reader for instance :)
[12:40] <share> StevenR Seveas thanks
[12:40] <theishi> Seveas: then i wont get any work done
[12:41] <Seveas> theishi, yeah, every plan has a downside ;)
[12:41] <share> So... a fork of Gnome 2 is made not by Gnome devs but by other people that continue to improve (or not) Gnome 2 right?
[12:42] <share> independently
[12:42] <Seveas> share, yes
[12:42] <auronandace> share: yes
[12:42] <share> just like anyone could improve ff 3.6 :P
[12:42] <auronandace> share: if they fork it and remove trademarks and whatnot, yes
[12:43] <theishi> Seveas: I guess I could just write a script for this that creates a local page... It seems like that is what I would have to do
[12:43] <auronandace> share: iceweasel is a firefox fork
[12:44] <Raidan> hey guys
[12:46] <Raidan> i was hoping to get some advice, i really want to cut all ties with microsoft and install Ubuntu as my permenant OS but is there a way i can still play games like EvE online and others on it
[12:46] <auronandace> Raidan: wine
[12:46] <Raidan> how does Wine work iv never managed to get it to work properly
[12:46] <auronandace> Raidan: not a prefect solution, but check the appdb
[12:46] <auronandace> !appdb | Raidan
[12:47] <Raidan> ah thanks
[12:47] <Raidan> i'l look into that
[12:47] <auronandace> Raidan: the best solution for windows games is to simply use windows
[12:48] <SoNoIoPaUrAEH> play4linux >:P
[12:48] <Raidan> true but then i hate windows
[12:48] <Raidan> if i can get EvE running id be happy
[12:48] <auronandace> Raidan: games is all i keep windows for
[12:49] <Raidan> im wanting to do away with windows compleatly
[12:49] <auronandace> Raidan: then hope that wine supports the windows apps you need
[12:49] <auronandace> Raidan: or find native alternatives
[12:50] <SoNoIoPaUrAEH> raidan search for playonlinux  im sure you can use eve i run sc2 wow and some others on linux
[12:51] <Raidan> Ah thanks
[12:51] <auronandace> SoNoIoPaUrAEH: sc2? star control 2?
[12:51] <SoNoIoPaUrAEH> starcraft 2
[12:51] <auronandace> SoNoIoPaUrAEH: ah, i was about to turn you to urquan masters
[12:51] <SoNoIoPaUrAEH> XDD
[12:51] <SunTsu> Raidan: I'm running e.g. WoW on Wine for years, works nicely
[12:52] <wind-> if one would like to try the latest updatest to Unity, does 11.04 lag behind from 11.10? what about is there some repo or a beta version where to try even newer versions?
[12:52] <auronandace> Raidan: playonlinux is essentially wine
[12:52] <DeltaEpsilon> is ipv6 now well supported on the internet?
[12:52] <vsync_> suntsu tactics important in wow
[12:52] <Raidan> yea just looks like its got a better GUI and slightly easier to use features
[12:52] <wind-> aye the basic wine package in ubuntu plays wow -opengl nicely, also on amd64 :)
[12:53] <vsync_> indeed art of wow pillage dragon goods
[12:53] <auronandace> wind-: you don't update the version of unity you are using, you stick with what it is from release
[12:54] <auronandace> wind-: want to try the newest unity? use the newest release
[12:54] <auronandace> !12.04 | wind-
[12:54] <amaroks> How do make all ubuntu colors bit darker?
[12:55] <wind-> auronandace: I'll try 12.04 daily build iso, feeling adventurous ;)
[12:56] <msterbrewer> its quite easy is quite easy if you dowload play on linux
[12:56] <wind-> auronandace: just want to keep track on latest developments in Unity
[12:56] <auronandace> wind-: 11.04 unity is built on top of gnome2, 11.10 unity is on top of gnome3
[12:56] <msterbrewer> it makes the wine files for you
[12:56] <msterbrewer> or whatever theyre called
[12:56] <wind-> auronandace: thanks, that's good to know too
[12:57] <auronandace> wind-: there is a website too
[12:57] <amaroks> anyone?
[12:57] <auronandace> !unity | wind-
[12:58] <auronandace> amaroks: use a darker theme, adjust the brightness on your monitor?

[13:00] <matrixiumn> Sidewinder1, why should I stay away from WUBI?
[13:00] <Seveas> muzone, because you told it only to accept pdf or doc files and you're getting html.
[13:02] <muzone> Seveas: but it doesn't make any difference if I add HTML to the list
[13:02] <muzone> running the same command on other sites yields tons of PDFs and DOCs
[13:02] <Sidewinder1> matrixiumn, WUBI was not really for long term use, IMHO; really just to try/get a feel for ubuntu, within the win environment. Just my advice. :D
[13:03] <matrixiumn> ok

[13:26] <alFReD-NSH> Which one do you think will require less resources guys? irc on pidgin, or on a tab on chrome?
[13:26] <rymate1234> alFReD-NSH, irc using xchat
[13:26] <rymate1234> pidgin sucks as an irc client IMO
[13:27] <rymate1234> stjohnmedrano, is it not in the notification area on the top right of the screen?
[13:27] <alFReD-NSH> do u think that it uses less resources than the freenode web app chat?
[13:28] <rymate1234> probably not
[13:29] <stjohnmedrano> rymatel1234, il look for it, thanks
[13:29] <wind-> this is nice to see that shortcuts can be created on unity desktop  (in 12.04) just by dragging and choosing link

[13:33] <abbas> hello
[13:34] <dangbiao> Hi
[13:34] <tanmin> hi
[13:34] <pooltable> wind only if they let you chose the way to have it set up i do not like unity i like old way
[13:34] <rymate1234> pooltable, you can install the gnome shell
[13:35] <wind-> pooltable: yes there is old gnome style if you like it
[13:35] <pooltable> wow cool how do that i might just upgrage?
[13:35] <rymate1234> I prefer unity though
[13:35] <wind-> personally I forced myself to get accustomed to Unity and after a few days found myself missing it, just nice to see in daily cd they have worked out some annoyances I found
[13:36] <share> found it application/pdf=gimp.desktop;evince.desktop;AdobeReader.desktop;
[13:36] <share> :)
[13:36] <wind-> "learning curve" was not big after being already accustomed with os x and win7 styles
[13:36] <rymate1234> one problem with unityy is that its not very easily customisable
[13:37] <wind-> yes Id still like a setting to always show menus and old style scroll bars (the later should be possible from changing a setting in file directly)
[13:39] <rymate1234> heh
[13:39] <share> rymate1234: thats only one problem
[13:39] <share> lol
[13:39] <rymate1234> I quite like these new scroll bars
[13:39] <share> bbl
[13:39] <rymate1234> I hardly ever use scroll bars
[13:39] <rymate1234> scroll wheels ftw
[13:39] <wind-> rymate1234: my wheel is broken and the mouse is otherwise awesome
[13:40] <wind-> sometimes the wheel just takes a hour to scroll a large list, when you can do it faster with a small motion on normal scroll bar;)
[13:40] <wind-> even on a not broken wheel
[13:42] <rymate1234> wind-, I have a mouse which has a turbo scroll mode
[13:44] <wind-> that might be nice.. I also like the scrolling with apple mouses and multi-touch pads even though the mouses were otherwise horrible. it is quick and precise but with the acceleration also fast when necessary
[13:45] <wind-> but as long as its a traditional wheel with large steps, sometimes working, sometimes not, and otherwise great DPI and comfort Ill stick to traditional scroll bars (sometimes)
[13:45] <xukun> is there a preferred way to copy a 2T file over network?

[13:47] <xukun> llutz, thanks
[13:48] <DeltaEpsilon> can I provide sftp access to a user w/o giving it shell access?
[13:48] <yeats> rymate1234: I don't *think* you can do that, but there are plenty of ogg to mp3 conversion programs out there
[13:48] <rymate1234> yeats, link?
[13:48] <llutz_> xukun: netcat would be faster, but it won't do checksums/resume  etc
[13:49] <wind-> DeltaEpsilon: I think that should happen if you just dont specify a shell for the user
[13:49] <xukun> llutz, then is rsync what I want
[13:49] <Sidewinder1> xukun, Or if you prefer GUI, install grsync; a front-end GUI to rsync. :-)
[13:50] <yeats> !info soundconverter | rymate1234
[13:50] <xukun> Sidewinder1, that is nice thanks a lot
[13:50] <Sidewinder1> xukun, My pleasure.
[13:51] <wind-> DeltaEpsilon: ah, some set "scponly" as shell for those users
[13:51] <wind-> DeltaEpsilon: it is a special shell you can install as package
[13:52] <nixmaniack> On my laptop, sometimes 'lspci' shows wifi card and sometimes it doesn't. what should i do?
[13:52] <wind-> DeltaEpsilon: then scp and sftp work but no access to bash and unix commands
[13:53] <Sidewinder1> nixmaniack, Are you certain that the card is fully 'seated'?
[13:54] <yeats> nixmaniack: you could search /var/log/dmesg for driver messages?
[13:54] <Sidewinder1> nixmaniack, Intermittent problems are the worst. :-(
[13:54] <nixmaniack> Sidewinder1, actually it does work in other OS! and it works if i reinstall kernel but only for one boot
[13:54] <nixmaniack> yeats, what should I look for?
[13:56] <linuxjack> udev?
[13:56] <pooltable> help is there a faster way to upgrade as of now will take over 1 hour ?
[13:56] <linuxjack> maybe
[13:56] <pooltable> do just download
[13:56] <yeats> nixmaniack: I don't know what the specific text would be, but maybe your card's model or something like that?  I would just do 'dmesg | less' and browse
[13:57] <Stanley00> pooltable: maybe change to the faster repos...?
[13:57] <pooltable> how do i do that ?
[13:57] <SpeedPC> i want to ask about zsh , i get these files http://paste.ubuntu.com/783475/ for zsh prompt coloring , but im confused to place these files so i can color zsh
[13:58] <Stanley00> pooltable: In the Software Source. I think
[13:59] <SpeedPC> there is someone who can help me?
[14:00] <pooltable> stanley is it on main how do i know what one is faster ?
[14:00] <nixmaniack> is there any way i can save the modules loaded by the kernel and then when i boot again i can insert those modules again
[14:00] <Stanley00> pooltable: click that, choose other...
[14:01] <tanmin> 大家好
[14:01] <linuxjack> nix,use udev
[14:01] <Stanley00> pooltable: there will be a button "choose the best server"
[14:01] <yeats> !cn | tanmin
[14:01] <Stanley00> pooltable: but, do you new to Ubuntu?
[14:02] <rymate1234> yeats, soundconverter works perfectly, thanks! :D
[14:03] <pooltable> stanley been using since 9-4 or 9-10 but some thing i am still new to
[14:03] <Stanley00> pooltable: ;)
[14:04] <yeats> rymate1234: great!
[14:05] <chroot> hi, how can i get the getty source file in ubuntu?
[14:06] <llutz_> chroot: apt-get source util-linux
[14:07] <chroot> is is said that at the start up time , the getty will be executed , so i want to take a look at the  getty source file .
[14:08] <chroot> llutz, and i should replace the util-linux with the file i want ?
[14:09] <llutz_> chroot: what do you really want to do?
[14:09] <llutz_> chroot: getty get started through /etc/init/tty?.conf   at boot
[14:09] <chroot> i want to read the getty source file
[14:09] <llutz_> chroot: apt-get source util-linux        this should contain getty.c
[14:09] <chroot> did you mean that the util-linux contain the getty ?
[14:10] <pooltable> stanley well it is faster to download the 11.10 ISO then upgrade from there
[14:10] <chroot> ok , it's downloading now
[14:10] <chroot> and llutz ,  i am confused about one thing
[14:10] <chroot> ?
[14:10] <Stanley00> pooltable: I dont think so, it also need download some upgrade
[14:11] <chroot> it is said that login will invoke the passwd when you login to your system? i looked through the source code of the login and passwd , but i got nothing.
[14:12] <chroot> i can't find where login invoke the passwd ?
[14:12] <nixmaniack> is there any way to change the background wallpaper of terminal from command line?
[14:12]  * black_ waves
[14:13] <Circular> excuse me
[14:13] <chroot> nixmaniack,  i am afraid it is complecated, i once want to do this too.
[14:13] <chroot> Circular,  what
[14:13] <rymate1234> fu
[14:13] <nixmaniack> chroot, were you successful?
[14:14] <rymate1234> Ubuntu, y u prioritise Banshee over spotify
[14:14] <pooltable> stanley how long are you going to be here ?
[14:14] <Circular> does anybody know why the VirtualBOX OSE could not open in the menu???
[14:14] <rymate1234> I want to use my laptop shortcuts for media playback with spotify ;9
[14:14] <chroot> nixmaniack, finally, i give up.
[14:14] <rymate1234> :(
[14:14] <chroot> nixmaniack, are you using desktop
[14:14] <nixmaniack> chroot, yes
[14:15] <Stanley00> pooltable: I dont know, may be within a hour...
[14:15] <chroot> if so , the background color can be changed from the teminal profile.
[14:15] <Circular> i only can open it in the term
[14:16] <Circular> does it the matter of the Gnome?
[14:16] <chroot> Circular, it is maybe the icon in the menu is not linked to the elf file .
[14:16] <pooltable> stanley well then i ask later for help with the gnome shell
[14:16] <pooltable> stanley how do i save the IRC log to look at later?
[14:16] <chroot> Circular,  you can make a new icon yourself.
[14:16] <Stanley00> pooltable: well, I never used gnome shell before...
[14:17] <nixmaniack> chroot, actually i want to change the background image, if i start emacs i want emacs shortcuts wallpaper as bg image
[14:17] <Circular> thanks~~~i ll try it
[14:17] <Stanley00> pooltable: which irc client are you using?
[14:17] <pooltable> chatzilla?
[14:17] <nomike>  nstore the whole system from the backup becaus in case of failure I would just reinstall the system.
[14:17] <chroot> nixmaniack, oh, if that , i don't know how.
[14:17] <nomike> oopps..sorry wrong chat window...
[14:17] <chroot> and nixmaniack can i ask you a qestion?
[14:17] <Circular> Stanley,I m using the Xchat
[14:18] <rymate1234> hmmmm
[14:18] <nixmaniack> chroot, sure :)
[14:18] <rymate1234> slight problem with Ubuntu software centre
[14:18] <rymate1234> It opens a blank window >_>
[14:18] <cablop> is it true that a 64 bit OS demands double memory sopace than a 32 bit OS?
[14:18] <nixmaniack> chroot, I think i might get what i want with gconfeditor
[14:18] <chroot> do you understand the startup of the linux(desktop or not)?
[14:18] <Stanley00> pooltable: chatzilla? hmm, I'm just use xchat... not sure about chat zilla
[14:19] <chroot> nixmaniack, you installed gconfeditor?
[14:19] <nixmaniack> chroot, you mean runlevels?
[14:19] <rymate1234> lol
[14:19] <rymate1234> chatzilla sucks
[14:19] <chroot> include that!
[14:19] <nixmaniack> chroot, it's there, i'm browsing thro it now
[14:19] <solexious> is there a key combo with unity to open another instance of a program rather than switch to that program for the buttons on the left pop out menu?
[14:19] <yeats> pooltable: there is a way to log in Chatzilla - just dig into the menus
[14:19] <nixmaniack> chroot, a lil bit knowledge i have, but i ain't expert
[14:20] <chroot> nixmaniack, what do you mean "it's there, i'm browsing thro it now"?
[14:20] <Stanley00> pooltable: I found this one, may be it will help http://25yearsofprogramming.com/blog/20071123.htm
[14:20] <chroot> and do you know the order when we login our system?
[14:20] <nixmaniack> chroot, gconf-editor is there, now i found the setting for background image, i'll try it now
[14:20] <chroot> means login and passwd , getty
[14:21] <chroot> nixmaniack,  try it now
[14:21] <nixmaniack> chroot, okay, wait a min
[14:21] <yeats> solexious: you can "middle click" to do that, I believe
[14:21] <chroot> ok
[14:22] <solexious> yeats: brill, that worked! Thanks
[14:22] <yeats> solexious: yeah - one of my friends stumbled on that - very useful ;-)
[14:26] <rymate1234> so guys
[14:26] <rymate1234> any idea why ubuntu software centre is opening a blank screen?
[14:27] <nixmaniack> chroot, got it! :)
[14:27] <chroot> nixmaniack, it works?
[14:28] <nixmaniack> chroot, yep! :)
[14:28] <chroot> and gconfedit si a software?
[14:28] <jsn> I'm trying to get my wireless card working again. A version upgrade stopped it working. nmcli dev shows the device, and nmcli dev list shows mostly what I expect. But nmcli con list shows nothing even after nmcli nm wifi on
[14:28] <chroot> right?
[14:28] <nixmaniack> chroot, just a sec, pasting the command
[14:28] <nixmaniack> chroot,  gconftool --type string --set /apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Profile0/background_image "/home/muneeb/Pictures/gnuemacs.png"
[14:28] <jsn> rymate1234, checked any logs?
[14:29] <mneptok> jsn: have you tried booting to a previous kernel?
[14:30] <nixmaniack> chroot, you might need to change the 'Profile0', as i have another profile in which i was trying
[14:30] <rymate1234> jsn, logs?
[14:30] <chroot> so , this command will set the bg
[14:30] <nixmaniack> chroot, yes
[14:30] <jsn> rymate1234, Stuff under /var/log that might be reporting what is happening.
[14:30] <chroot> good!
[14:30] <Circular> does the Banshee couldnt open the AAC directly?
[14:30] <nixmaniack> chroot, you can browse through various options in gconf-editor
[14:31] <bogor> nixmaniack, can i set background wallpaper on my  console  ie., alt+ctrl+f1
[14:31] <jsn> mneptok, I have not. Truthfully, it hasn't worked in a while. I just finally am going to take care of it.
[14:31] <rymate1234> jsn, where can i find these.... logs... you speak of
[14:31] <mneptok> jsn: does lspci report the device as actually in existence?
[14:31] <Sidewinder1> rymate1234, Generally in /var...
[14:32] <nixmaniack> bogor, i ain't expert, i just discovered this hack as i wan needing this, but i think you can't on VT
[14:32] <jsn> mneptok, it reports it as : Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection (rev 61)
[14:32] <jsn> rymate1234, Open up a terminal, right? > cd /var/log
[14:32] <mneptok> rymate1234: open a terminal. type "software-center" (no quotes). the app will launch. wait a little while so that package lists can be updated. if you still see a blank window, look in the terminal window you used for any ouut from the app that may be informative.
[14:32] <nixmaniack> bogor, but if it's framebuffered VT, then you might be able to do that, but that needs some research!
[14:33] <mneptok> jsn: does the machine in question have a hardware switch to disable wireless?
[14:33] <chroot> hi everybody, how can i forbiden the gust session in ubuntu 11.10?
[14:33] <jsn> mneptok, Thanks for asking. Yes, indeed it dows. The switch is set to enable wireless.
[14:33] <bogor> nixmaniac, we cant on a vt. But ubuntu is using framebuffer i think. And all mordern machine are using framebuffer it hink, So the gconf will not work. But it should be possible to set background images on framebuffer
[14:33] <chroot> i found that you can login to guest without a password
[14:33] <chroot> why
[14:33] <mneptok> jsn: check the BIOS, too.
[14:34] <jsn> mneptok, for the hardware switch status, you mean?
[14:34] <rymate1234> hmmm
[14:34] <rymate1234> terminal output
[14:34] <mneptok> jsn: for yet another switch, this time in software
[14:34] <nixmaniack> bogor, yes, you are right, but i haven't checked can we use framebuffer so i can't tell much
[14:34] <Circular> excuse me,does anybody knows that why I couldnt open the AAC files with Banshee???
[14:34] <rymate1234> outputs this 2011-12-26 14:34:34,235 - softwarecenter.ui.gtk3.em - INFO - EM's: 17 15 21
[14:34] <douglas-web-dev> Hello all!
[14:35]  * jsn has never checked bios from command line before... is trying lshw
[14:35] <mneptok> rymate1234: i get the same thing, and software-center works for me. so that's not the issue.
[14:35] <rymate1234> hmmm
[14:35] <rymate1234> well
[14:35] <llutz_> chroot: set "allow_guest=false"   in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf      and ask the stupid maintainer why this is true by  default
[14:36] <rymate1234> after outputting that, there is no more output, and it just goes back to the original terminal state, ready to accept a new comand
[14:36] <bogor> Does any one know , how to set background image on ubuntu 11.10 on a terminal console on framebuffer (ie alt+ctrl+f1)?
[14:37] <rymate1234> synaptic works fine though
[14:37] <Stanley00> bogor: there's no way, AFAIK
[14:37] <douglas-web-dev> I'm trying Xubuntu for the first time. It's amazing. Very light and useful.
[14:38] <Stanley00> bogor: you can set it in gnome-terminal.
[14:38] <chroot> yes, llutz thanks ,
[14:38] <auronandace> douglas-web-dev: i have xfce just the way i like it, it's my favourite DE
[14:38] <bogor> Stanley, i have seen tux image appear in console(alt+ctrl+f1) in gentoo. So i know it is possible , but not sure how.
[14:39] <douglas-web-dev> auronandace, cool :)
[14:39] <Stanley00> bogor: you see it at the boot time, right?
[14:39] <douglas-web-dev> auronandace, it's light, but work as it should...
[14:40] <rymate1234> I wish you could download more themes for unity :(
[14:40] <Sidewinder1> I forget, in Synaptic, if I want to "completely remove", all previous kernels (saving current and 1 preceding) so that menu.lst, (10.04 with legacy GRIB),no longer lists them, do I remove 'kernel', 'header', 'image', or all of the above? TIA.
[14:40] <auronandace> douglas-web-dev: its the customisability i like, need a hand with anything?
[14:41] <douglas-web-dev> auronandace, I got a Phenon X4 here, but I'm not taking real advantage.. I got 1GB DDR2 memory.
[14:41] <Stanley00> Sidewinder1: I think you should remove all of them. ;)
[14:41] <bogor> stanley00, i am sure whether it was only boot time or after that also. But it was no GUI or grub splash and it was console.
[14:41] <douglas-web-dev> auronandace, Well I know feel things, just used Kubuntu before and Mandriva on KDE.
[14:41] <bogor> B'cos i tried hard to get gentoo up and running . later gave due to misconfigured network issue.
[14:41] <douglas-web-dev> auronandace, do you recommend something for a starter?
[14:42] <Sidewinder1> Stanley00, That's what I thought, but wasn't sure; many thanks! :-)
[14:42] <hoaithuonguyen> hi
[14:42] <Circular> why does my Banshee couldnt open the AAC files???
[14:42] <auronandace> douglas-web-dev: recomend something? what do you want to do?
[14:42] <bfri> what is the most effect way to change any key command? is it through the individual program you are running or the OS settings ubuntu 10.04
[14:42] <Stanley00> bogor: in gentoo, there a prog called fbsplash, I think that prog show an image on frame buffer console
[14:42] <Stanley00> Sidewinder1: you are welcome ;)
[14:43] <rymate1234> Circular, you may need to install the ubuntu restricted pac-
[14:43] <rymate1234> oh
[14:43] <Sidewinder1> Off for some system maintenance.. G'Day all!
[14:44] <douglas-web-dev> Things are going well by now... But to be perfect, I'd like that funcion of draging windows to the side of screen..
[14:44] <douglas-web-dev> auronandace, do you know how to do that?
[14:44] <bogor> Stanley00, thanks for the pointer, i will do my home work and post the results in my blog  so that other if interested can find out.
[14:44] <jmscomtech> how do i go about creating a shortcut for a app in bin folder so that any user can use it
[14:45] <jmscomtech> ?
[14:45] <douglas-web-dev> auronandace, so that it occupy exactly half-screen
[14:45] <auronandace> douglas-web-dev: oh, you'll likely want to install compiz then
[14:45] <Stanley00> bogor: good luck with that. ;)
[14:45] <douglas-web-dev> Cool.. But wouldn't it make my computer slower?
[14:45] <auronandace> douglas-web-dev: replace xfwm with compiz and install cssm
[14:46] <auronandace> !cssm | douglas-web-dev
[14:46] <Stanley00> jmscomtech: use ln to make a link
[14:46] <jmscomtech> ?
[14:46] <auronandace> !compiz | douglas-web-dev
[14:46] <douglas-web-dev> auronandace, thank you.
[14:46] <Stanley00> jmscomtech: you can use "ln" command to make a link, it's some kind of shortcut.
[14:46] <douglas-web-dev> auronandace, is it easy to  xfwm with compiz?
[14:47] <auronandace> douglas-web-dev: i'm more of a traditional user, don't need all the fancy effects
[14:47] <auronandace> douglas-web-dev: yes but in my experience compiz has always been a little buggy, i don't tend to use it
[14:47] <pooltable> help can i do an upgrade from a mount iso if so how ?
[14:48] <poppy80> hello
[14:48] <poppy80> does not open a file pps. use ubunut 11.10
[14:48] <douglas-web-dev> I see. I just want this funcionality. I'd like if there was another way of doing so... This would improve a lot my productivity...
[14:49] <blognewb> hey guys which revision system do you recommend? cvs, svn, git???
[14:50] <bullgard4> blognewb: That from Linus.
[14:51] <jmscomtech> stanley00 and how do i get it so anyone an use the link?
[14:51] <Stanley00> jmscomtech: if you made a link in /bin, or in the $PATH, other users can use that prog just by typing its name
[14:52] <jmscomtech> i have to sudo the name to run it
[14:53] <bullgard4> Where is the "toolbar" in Banshee 2.2.1? Is it the third line in Banshee's program window? See http://www.gitorious.org/banshee-community-extensions/pages/StreamRecorderUserGuide
[14:53] <jmscomtech> oooh never mind its working now
[14:53] <douglas-web-dev> auronandace, sorry my last message was for you.
[14:54] <douglas-web-dev> auronandace, I see. I just want this funcionality. I'd like if there was another way of doing so... This would improve a lot my productivity...
[14:54] <auronandace> douglas-web-dev: apart from compiz or kde i don't know how to make that happen
[14:55] <poppy80> does not open a file pps. use ubuntu 11.10
[15:01] <douglas-web-dev> auronandace, Ok. Thank you. I'll try to get compiz optimized here, later. So I will get a lot of extra second each time I have to do this. :)
[15:01] <douglas-web-dev> auronandace, Nice to meet you.
[15:01] <samorian> any idea when the ubuntu 12.04 disk image size is going to be able to fit on a regular cd?
[15:02] <Stanley00> samorian: I dont think it will ;)
[15:02] <samorian> Stanley00, that's too bad
[15:02] <nixmaniack> does alternate install CD comes with desktop manager?
[15:03] <Stanley00> nixmaniack: yes, it does
[15:03] <Stanley00> samorian: 12.04 is discuss in #ubuntu+1, if you interested :D
[15:03] <samorian> ok thanks Stanley00
[15:04] <nixmaniack> Stanley00, okay, thanks! do we have to specify somewhere to install it? My friend didn't get any GUI that's why i asked!
[15:04] <Matrixiumn> bored
[15:04] <Stanley00> nixmaniack: no, it will install GUI interface by default, by the installer is in text mode.
[15:05] <samorian> is there a headless version that isn't the server version?
[15:05] <samorian> stripping down ubuntu can be a chore
[15:05] <llutz_> !minimal | samorian then use this
[15:05] <nixmaniack> Stanley00, okay.
[15:05] <samorian> llutz_, ok
[15:06] <leftist> is there any advantage for me to upgrade to 10.10 on this laptop or should i stay at 10.04 as it performs just what is needed for me???
[15:06] <samorian> ah yes that is what it is called
[15:06] <samorian> minimal
[15:07] <Stanley00> leftist: 10.04 is good also, since it work well.
[15:07] <leftist> yeah stanley00
[15:07] <leftist> so i'll just keep this laptop at 10.04 then.
[15:07] <leftist> thanks
[15:07] <samorian> if it works it isn't broken, hence you don't _need_ to fix it.
[15:08] <leftist> yeah my feeling exactly just that other programmers are always saying keep up with the joneses but like it says if not broke dont fix it
[15:08] <leftist> thank
[15:08] <leftist> later
[15:10] <lubby> hi everyone, first of all Merry Christmas to you all :)
[15:10] <lubby> I'm updating 11.10, is it safe for me to install flash at this moment? Or should I rather wait until the updates are finished?
[15:11] <samorian> i personally use firefox's flash wizard (i think that is what it is called)
[15:11] <Stanley00> lubby: you should wait, since you cant install any apps while it's upgrading
[15:12] <delinquentme> silly thing just happened .. I accidentally clicked and dragged a folder into another folder in my home directory .. is there any way to figure out what I did here?
[15:13] <lubby> Stanley00: I see, it's possible but there would be a big chance to break something...
[15:13] <lubby> delinquentme: try Ctrl+Z
[15:13] <lubby> Stanley00: it should be off by default for noobs like me :)
[15:13] <delinquentme> did
[15:13] <delinquentme> no luck :D
[15:13] <Stanley00> lubby: how is it possible?
[15:14] <OltreIrc`21687> hello
[15:14] <samorian> do you happen to remember which folders were involve delinquentme ?
[15:14] <delinquentme> samorian, nope
[15:14] <OltreIrc`21687> !list
[15:14] <delinquentme> #FacePalm
[15:14] <samorian> delinquentme, ouch
[15:15] <lubby> Stanley00: in one terminal I do apt-get update && apt-get upgrade, and while that is running I fire up another terminal where I type apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:16] <samorian> lubby, apt doesn't allow multiple instances running simultaneously
[15:16] <Stanley00> lubby: hmm? did you try this?
[15:16] <lubby> either I did through apt or by downloading the package from adobe
[15:17] <lubby> in any case I remember doing this with 8.04
[15:17] <lubby> or version below that
[15:17] <lubby> that was probably also the reason why I broke stuff :(
[15:17] <samorian> ah i see
[15:18] <bullgard4> Where is the "toolbar" in Banshee 2.2.1? Is it the third line in Banshee's program window? See http://www.gitorious.org/banshee-community-extensions/pages/StreamRecorderUserGuide
[15:18] <samorian> either way unless it is the .so you use apt to install it lubby
[15:18] <mneptok> lubby: you should never run more than 1 instance of package management tools (apt, dpkg) at a time
[15:19] <zamba> how can i disable the stupid animation when switching workspaces?
[15:19] <zamba> i just want to switch it, don't animate the switch
[15:20] <lubby> I see, yeah I should probably also refrain from updating through update manager while I do stuff in the terminal
[15:20] <samorian> zamba, what version are you using?
[15:20] <ANTONIO_> ciao

[15:24] <ken69> mi ubuntu esta relento
[15:25] <subb1> i have: ubuntu 10.04, radeon HD 4350 256M card, 1gb ram. i have installed the proprietary driver downloaded from amd site and still i see flickering while using navigating around gnome and tearing when viewing hd vidoes
[15:25] <retrorex> Hia One question(even if its dumb) . Must all dependencies be satisfied before install a tar.gz package
[15:26] <subb1> i) please give me a link for the proper installation of the ati driver file   (ii) steps to tweak it for higher performance.
[15:27] <poppy80> does not open a file pps. use ubuntu 11.10
[15:29] <muzone> Why can't I wget -r -A pdf,doc http://www.fabricly.com? https://gist.github.com/1519382 - it doesn't make any difference if I add HTML to the list. Running the same command on other sites though usually yields tons of PDFs and DOCs.
[15:32] <subb1> any help guys?
[15:34] <armence> Hello all. I have an encrypted home directory. I need to backup my key for recovery purposes. Where is the key?
[15:39] <Smiche> Hello.

[15:41] <_ramo> is anyone familiar with vmbuilder here? i try to run it on debian squeeze  but get a output llike this: http://privatepaste.com/9322fa37a3/asfd2f23
[15:43] <armence> Hello all. I have an encrypted home directory. I need to backup my key for recovery purposes. Where is the file that contains the key?
[15:44] <pooltable> help downloan and install Mplayer?
[15:45] <armence> sudo apt-get install mplayer
[15:45] <Smiche> any1 can help me with my driver issue?
[15:47] <subb1> i guess... the channel is inactive with tech guys... i am also searching for help
[15:47] <Resistance> you all realize there's something called patience right?
[15:47] <Resistance> you need patience in order to get support on IRC...
[15:48] <pooltable> thanks armence
[15:48] <Resistance> just as if you were posting your support question(s) to ubuntuforums.org, you'd need patience to wait until answers come up, or even more questions about your issue/setup/etc.
[15:50] <philpem> for those of you who remember my question from last night re. the edimax EW7722IN -- turns out the rt2x00 drivers for it are classed as "unstable, highly experimental."
[15:50] <philpem> so i've scrapped that plan and ordered the TP-link card (which uses an atheros chipset listed on the ath9k support list)
[15:51] <compdoc> you do what I do - buy hardware that linux supports
[15:52] <pcoder> Hi adminis, how do I ask a question? please help
[15:52] <compdoc> arent you asking one now?
[15:52] <Resistance> pcoder:  you just post your question in here :P
[15:53] <Resistance> like you just did.  but unless you give details, we cant really read minds, so...
[15:53] <usr13> pcoder: Just describe your situation as best you can, give some detail and ask your question.
[15:53] <pcoder> I installed Ubuntu 11.04 on a partition on my laptop dell vostro 3400
[15:53] <pcoder> My problem is The system gets too heated and the fan makes too much noise ..
[15:54] <pcoder> I have windows too, which works silently
[15:54] <pcoder> any sugggestions would be helpful
[15:54] <pcoder> Thanks
[15:54] <Resistance> pcoder:  similar issues on a Dell Latitude E6500... but laptops generally run hot anyways
[15:54] <Resistance> pcoder:  afaict, there's no fix atm, or at least not an *easy* fix
[15:55] <Resistance> pcoder:  this question comes up often in the Dell section on the ubuntu forums :P
[15:55] <Resistance> and so far i have yet to see a true resolution
[15:55] <pcoder> :(
[15:55] <pcoder> Would another version of OS be of any help??
[15:56] <Resistance> pcoder:  its assumed that it has something to do with fan control, or that the processor and stuff are always running and are thereby generating more heat, hence the increased fan speeds...
[15:56] <pooltable> ok i have Mplayer installed how do i change the skin ?
[15:56] <Resistance> pcoder:  not really, the issue has existed since at least Jaunty (9.04)
[15:57] <Resistance> pcoder:  i have advice though... just dont put your laptop on a surface which obstructs the fan port(s)
[15:57] <Resistance> pcoder:  that'll help prevent the thing from overheating and increasing fan speeds more
[15:57] <pcoder> Resistance: I am already following that advice :)
[15:58] <Resistance> :P
[15:58] <pcoder> Resistance: I hear the issue has something to do with the BIOS??
[15:59] <unreal-dude> im waiting for nVidia to make a laptop designed to run up to 100 deg C :P
[15:59] <Resistance> pcoder:  where'd you hear that, because if the issue were in BIOS it'd be on Windows too ;P
[16:00] <sw0rdfish> !chrome
[16:01] <pcoder> Resistance: Here http://askubuntu.com/questions/21161/fan-making-noise-while-running-ubuntu
[16:02] <Resistance> pcoder:  if you notice, it doesnt have any accepted answers ;P
[16:02] <Resistance> pcoder:  just because the first message suggests it has BIOS issues, doesn't mean that's true.  Remember that post was for an Acer, not a Dell
[16:02] <pcoder> Resistance: ya thats truee
[16:03] <Resistance> as well, Dell doesn't issue BIOS updates very often, and also Dell does not officially support Ubuntu anymore (they used to sell systems with it preinstalled)
[16:04] <Matrixiumn> hello
[16:04] <Binary1010> ahhh
[16:04] <RoC_MasterMind> Anyone able to get around the "btrfs: unable to remove the only writeable device" error when removing a device from a multi-device BTRFS pool?
[16:04] <Resistance> pcoder:  given that they dont officially support linux on their laptops anymore, i'd not expect a BIOS update to come out with the required changes to make Linux work
[16:06] <hypeBoy> hi, i use mobile broadband USB, but ubuntu takes time recognizing it (the option for mobile networking appears a minute late in network icon on task bar, after pluging in the usb)
[16:06] <hypeBoy> how can i speed it up.?
[16:06] <sw0rdfish> hey i just installed google chrome, why won't it launch?
[16:07] <unreal-dude> missing the launcher icon sw0rdfish ?
[16:07] <sw0rdfish> i tried launching it by going to Appliations -> Internet -> Google Chrome
[16:07] <sw0rdfish> pressed google chrome... nothing happens,,, do i need to restart or somethin?
[16:07] <Sharpshooter> ANy body know how to change the Firefox Menu fonts ?
[16:07] <unreal-dude> o hrm, thats not the problem i had then.....
[16:08] <sw0rdfish> unreal-dude, lol I see... well i'm on 10.10 maybe you had different problem cuz you're on 11.10?
[16:08] <jmscomtech> sudo unmount says command not found so how do u unmount  something?
[16:08] <unreal-dude> i prolly had a diff problem cause i wasnt on ubuntu :p
[16:08] <llutz_> jmscomtech: umount no n
[16:08] <sw0rdfish> unreal-dude, oh haha
[16:08] <sw0rdfish> wait damn it
[16:08] <unreal-dude> my launcher icon just wasnt there until i installed so other package
[16:09] <sw0rdfish> now not even Chromium browser is starting :O
[16:10] <pooltable> sharpshooter menu- preferences -content - sel font
[16:10] <sw0rdfish> haha and it deleted my FF cookies I believe.
[16:10] <Sharpshooter> pooltable, Thanks
[16:11] <pooltable> add a skin to mplayer ??
[16:12] <Jymmmm> Just installed 10.04 LTS on to Intel D864GBF P4 mobo with onboard video and can't get higher resolutions than 1300x, suggestions?
[16:13] <armence> Hello all. I have an encrypted home directory. I need to backup my key for recovery purposes. Where is the file that contains the key? I know a popup appears when one first logs in telling you what file to backup, but I can no longer see it...
[16:14] <Jymmmm> I tried xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 2048X1156 --rate 60 and says cannot find mode 2048X1156
[16:14] <Sharpshooter> pooltable, I changed the font but it is still shows the same font (sans) ! any thing else I want to do?
[16:14] <jsn> I just feel so dumb not being able to get my wireless card working. It used to work. I want to pay someone to do it. To just pop over to my place and fix whatever it is needs fixing.
[16:15] <sw0rdfish> whats the difference between google chrome and chromium
[16:15] <sw0rdfish> unreal-dude?
[16:15] <jsn> google chrome is a browser. chromium is an element from the periodic table.
[16:16] <sw0rdfish> jsn i meant chromium THE browser
[16:16] <sw0rdfish> hehe
[16:16] <pcoder> Resistance: Also it (noisy fan and heating) may be a problem with the graphics driver???  I changed the SSH port from 22 to 2222, but they still seem to be able to port scan that port and are still tryin to get in. Anyone have another idea how I can guard against these attacks?
[16:21] <sw0rdfish> SunTsu, I know right...
[16:21] <nvz> Metroshica: fail2ban
[16:21] <llutz_> Metroshica: ignore it, setup key-authentication
[16:22] <Metroshica> llutz, I can't ignore it, it's putting a decent strain on my cpu by having to handle hundreds of authentication attempts
[16:22] <Jymmmm> Metroshica: http://denyhosts.sourceforge.net
[16:22] <Metroshica> nvz, what is fail2ban exactly?
[16:23] <Sharpshooter> rymate1234, Nexus
[16:23] <jamesbond2> Hi
[16:23] <nvz> Metroshica: basically it monitors logs and after several failed attempts it sets up iptables rules to drop packets from attackers
[16:23] <Sharpshooter> jamesbond2, HAi !
[16:23] <jamesbond2> I have issue with sqlgrey packages after upgrading to oneiric
[16:23] <SunTsu> Sharpshooter: you wer talking Nexuiz, right?
[16:23] <SunTsu> were even
[16:23] <Jymmmm> Metroshica: denyhots it works great for exactly that
[16:23] <jamesbond2> sqlgrey: Couldn't unlink "/var/run/sqlgrey.pid" [Permission denied]
[16:23] <Metroshica> nvz, ah ok, cool, I"ll look into that
[16:24] <Metroshica> Jymmmm, yea, it looks exactly like what I'm lookin for, thanks
[16:24] <sw0rdfish> omg i can't remove chromium
[16:24] <Sharpshooter> SunTsu, Oops Ma Bad ! Ya its Nexiuz
[16:24] <Jymmmm> Metroshica: works for http/s ftp/s too if you like
[16:25] <Bsims> anyone know how to get calibre to support series metadata when copying to a kindle fire?
[16:25] <jamesbond2> It also doesn't bound the port with localhost
[16:25] <Jymmmm> Metroshica: If you want something beyond that, google "port knocking"
[16:25] <Metroshica> Jymmmm, awesome, thanks
[16:26] <Jymmmm> Just installed 10.04 LTS on to Intel D864GBF P4 mobo with onboard video and can't get higher resolutions than 1300x, suggestions?  I tried xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 2048X1156 --rate 60 and says cannot find mode 2048X1156
[16:26] <Pilif12p> When I do lspci -nv how do I tell which device is my wireless card?
[16:27] <Bsims> Pilif12p: it may say something like broadcom or intel
[16:27] <compdoc> Pilif12p, paste the output into pastebin and let us look
[16:27] <usr13> Pilif12p: Should be obvious
[16:27] <usr13> Pilif12p: lspci | pastebinit
[16:27] <usr13> and send URL here
[16:28] <DrDuck> Hi. I'm having issues with my wireless connection. I've just freshly installed Lubuntu 11.10. When trying to use wifi, I'm prompted with: device not ready (firmware missing). I have a wired connection handy, if there's anything in specific that I need to install. Would anyone mind guiding me into the right direction with the appropriate commands to run?
[16:28] <jamesbond2> anyone?
[16:28] <Pilif12p> compdoc: http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1421885
[16:28] <nvz> DrDuck: dmesg output would tell you specifically i'm sure but yes, you need a firmware package for your card
[16:29] <usr13> DrDuck: lspci | pastebinit
[16:29] <Pilif12p> (and Bsims, usr13)
[16:29] <no_gravity> Hello! Im searching for a mail client that can connect to IMAP and doesnt store anything locally. Any ideas?
[16:30] <Jymmmm> gmail?
[16:30] <llutz_> no_gravity: mutt
[16:30] <SunTsu> no_gravity: mutt, thunderbird
[16:31] <usr13> Pilif12p: lspci | pastebinit  #Show  us resulting URL
[16:31] <Pilif12p> SunTsu: thunderbird stores stuff locally, iirc, otherwise I have 3 gb of nothing in my thunderbird profile
[16:31] <Pilif12p> usr13: yes, I sent it.
[16:31] <ucenik36> hahhahhhahhaha
[16:31] <no_gravity> SunTsu: thunderbird stores local caches of the mails. i did not find a way to turn that of.
[16:31] <DrDuck> Ok. One second.
[16:31] <usr13> Pilif12p: lspci | pastebinit  #Show  us resulting URL
[16:32] <Jymmmm> Pilif12p: gmail can attach to an external imap account I believe
[16:32] <SunTsu> Pilif12p: cache, yes, mutt does that, too, else it's slow as *beep*
[16:32] <pooltable> sharpshooter i do not know i change mine and all change even chatzilla
[16:32] <BIlder> fico
[16:32] <ucenik36> bildewr
[16:32] <ucenik36> hahahha
[16:32] <oCean> ucenik36: please stop posting nonsense
[16:32] <BIlder> haha
[16:33] <Bsims> Pilif12p: I beleve its 04:00.0 0280: 8086:0091 (rev 1a)
[16:33] <BIlder> areyouwritingfrom schoool
[16:33] <BIlder> my space isfucked
[16:33] <oCean> BIlder: control your language here, please
[16:33] <SunTsu> no_gravity: as I said, you would want to use a mail/header cache with mutt, too, else it's unbearable slow with IMAP
[16:34] <pooltable> ooo tis tis language
[16:34] <Sharpshooter> pooltable, Any way I'am installing FIrefox 9
[16:34] <Pilif12p> Bsims: Okay, thanks.
[16:34] <gridbag> where is the workspace manager? i want 4 spaces horizontally.
[16:35] <Pilif12p> i'm just gonna trust you here, and put this card's ID as what my old one was...
[16:35] <pooltable> shaprshooter ff 9 here
[16:35]  * Bsims is trying to get calibre to stick series info onto my new kindle fire any clues
[16:35] <bullgard4> Who can show me a picture with the red record button in Banshee 2.2.1 under GNOME Shell 3.2.1 that http://www.gitorious.org/banshee-community-extensions/pages/StreamRecorderUserGuide speaks about?
[16:35] <Pilif12p> Bsims: that'll change with each card, right?
[16:36] <DrDuck> nvz, usr13: This is my lspci - http://pastebin.com/Rh4FisPn
[16:36] <pooltable> sharpshooter i just can not stand it takes days later for ubuntu to update it been on ff 9 on windows days  before
[16:36] <no_gravity> SunTsu: at least i would like to kill the cache when shutting down the mailer
[16:36]  * nvz isn't particularly interested in lspci output
[16:36] <nvz> dmesg would tell you exactly what package to install
[16:37] <Bsims> Pilif12p: yup look for the driver its trying to use
[16:37] <SunTsu> no_gravity: that somehow contradicts the intet of a cache, you'll need to dl all the information again
[16:37] <DrDuck> Alright, nvz. One sec.
[16:37] <Pilif12p> Bsims: wait, so if I spoof this card's ID to my old one, it'll try to use the old driver?
[16:37] <DeltaEpsilon> can some one recommend a easy drawing software for Ubuntu?
[16:37] <Circular> hi
[16:37] <MonkeyDust> o/ SunTsu
[16:38] <lordjj> Is there a way to refresh the screen from a virtual terminal when it get's frozen?
[16:38] <pooltable> delta gimp
[16:38] <milamber> DeltaEpsilon: raster or vector?
[16:38] <gridbag> i could swear there was a "Workspace" icon in System Settings before.
[16:38] <no_gravity> SunTsu: thats what i want
[16:38] <nvz> DrDuck: just search in your package manager for firmware packages related to realtek card, I don't need to see anything you need a firmware package an should be able to figure that much out
[16:38] <SunTsu> no_gravity: without a cache you probably only can resort to some web mailer
[16:39] <SunTsu> no_gravity: believe me, a local client without a cache is *watching my language* slow
[16:39] <gridbag> hello.
[16:40] <BIlder> filip
[16:41] <DeltaEpsilon> milamber, raster
[16:42] <milamber> DeltaEpsilon: then you are going to want gimp
[16:42] <rymate1234> can i ask?
[16:42] <rymate1234> is there a way to install "clearlooks" in ubuntu 11.10
[16:42] <Jymmmm> rymate1234: you just did
[16:42] <rymate1234> Jymmmm, ¬_¬
[16:43] <gridbag> is there some reason why a running xchat doesn't show up in the alt-tab app list?
[16:43] <htmlinprogress> gridbag,  playin ninja
[16:43] <Skummel> gridbag it might be "hidden"
[16:44] <htmlinprogress> lol
[16:44] <Jymmmm> Just installed 10.04 LTS on to Intel D864GBF P4 mobo with onboard video and can't get higher resolutions than 1300x, suggestions?  I tried xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 2048X1156 --rate 60 and says cannot find mode 2048X1156
[16:44] <gridbag> hardy har har.
[16:45] <pooltable> well installing updates 11.10 3 hours to go
[16:45] <gridbag> this re-install is way different from an upgrade to 11.10.
[16:46] <gridbag> this is pretty messed up, actually.
[16:48] <rymate1234> gridbag, wats the issue/
[16:48] <zxiest> Hey guys..
[16:48] <zxiest> I have been receiving this same email from Cron Daemon.. PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs/sqlite.so' - /usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs/sqlite.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0
[16:48] <zxiest> How do I turn it off?
[16:49] <AndroUser> Hello?
[16:50] <AndroUser> I need help with UbuntuStudio...
[16:50] <gridbag> rymate1234 : xchat is not showing up in the alt-tab list of apps.  Also, I want 4 horizontal workspaces. I need to add keyboard shortcuts to switch between them, as I had yesterday before re-install.
[16:50] <rymate1234> hrm
[16:51] <gridbag> officelibre doesn't show up in alt-tab either.
[16:51] <MonkeyDust> gridbag  try apt-get update
[16:51] <gridbag> and the app-list switcher looks goofy.
[16:52] <rymate1234> reboot?
[16:52] <Jymmmm> do I need to be sudo to use xrandr ?
[16:52] <bullgard4> Who can show me a picture with the red record button in Banshee 2.2.1 under GNOME Shell 3.2.1 that http://www.gitorious.org/banshee-community-extensions/pages/StreamRecorderUserGuide speaks about?
[16:52] <rymate1234> install proprietary drivers?
[16:52] <gridbag> seriously, what is the command to configure how many rows/cols of workspaces you want?
[16:52] <bullgard4> Jymmmm: No.
[16:52] <Jymmmm> bullgard4: thanks, (crap)
[16:52] <Bsims> gridbag: reboot... or failing that move the kde/gnome config folder to .backup and let it recreate it for you
[16:53] <Jymmmm> gridbag: rightclick on the bottom right corenr and click on preferences
[16:53] <lantizia> Lo... Lets say I made a new game for Linux.  It makes save game files, what is the most responsible place on the filesystem to place them? (yes $HOME - but where in home?) i.e. what is the equivalent to a windows "Saved Games" folder
[16:54] <llutz_> lantizia: ~/.nameofthegame/saved
[16:54] <Bsims> lantizia: .$GameName/SavedGames
[16:54] <AndroUser> You see, I downloaded the UbuntuStudio from the main page... When it gets to “Selecting and Installiny Files“ I get an error, that there was something wrong with the installing...
[16:54] <lantizia> llutz & Bsims: Right that's what I was thinking - but then that isn't very accessible for the user since they are hidden foldersd
[16:54] <zxiest> I have been receiving this same email from Cron Daemon.. PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs/sqlite.so' - /usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs/sqlite.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0
[16:55] <Jymmmm> bullgard4: I've trued --addmode, --newmode, cvt 2048x1156 and just can't get anything to work, keeps saying cannot find mode 2048x1156 no matter what I try.
[16:55] <lantizia> A "saved game" is after all user-created content like a document
[16:55] <zxiest> any idea on how to turn this off?
[16:55] <llutz_> lantizia: why should a user access it? make it loadable from app
[16:55] <lantizia> llutz, for backup?
[16:55] <Jymmmm> zxiest: SQLite is now included in php5, not as a library iirc
[16:55] <bullgard4> Jymmmm: I am not familiar with all xrandr details. I'd consult the xrandr manpage.
[16:55] <Bsims> lantizia: anyone with unix-like experence will look there anyway if they want to edit it or back it up
[16:56] <Jymmmm> bullgard4: thanks =)
[16:56] <zxiest> Jymmmm what should I do here? Install php5?
[16:56] <zxiest> Jymmmm I just don't want to receive all these emails.. :-)
[16:56] <AndroUser> Any help?
[16:56] <Jymmmm> zxiest: sounds like it's already installed, just comment out the line in the php.ni file that calls that library.
[16:56] <MonkeyDust> AndroUser  if you have a question
[16:56] <zxiest> Jymmmm cool.. thanks :-)
[16:56] <Jymmmm> php.ini and restart your httpd
[16:57] <yekoms> zxiest, just install the module.
[16:57] <eutheria> empathy doesn't seem to save any accounts i create
[16:57] <TimmyT> there is a raw image of a disk, the whole disk. is there anyway to mount that somewhere and extract some files from that? (this is not like a raw image of a partition, so it is not possible to mount it with loop option)
[16:57] <Jymmmm> yekoms: it's built in now, no module needed
[16:57] <lantizia> Bsims, llutz: "Desktop", "Documents", "Downloads", "Music", "Pictures", "Public", "Templates", "Videos" <-- all these by default are in home, I'm essentially trying to work out if there should be a "Games" as well or if it has been purposefully left out.
[16:57] <llutz_> lantizia: sry i'm not playing games but "backups" should cover $HOME with all dirs, even hidden dirs.
[16:58] <Bsims> Create one if you want... but you asked me where I'd put it
[16:58] <serealj> does anyone know where I change xterm colors? Like I know I can do -fg -bg, but certain colors are hard to see (mostly this really dark blue that is typically comments)
[16:58] <gridbag> this logitech 330 usb works perfectly under ubuntu. just plug it in and it works. i spent all day yesterday discovering this motherboard's mic is busted.
[16:58] <bullgard4> eutheria: My Empathy does save any accounts i create.
[16:58] <gridbag>    ... (headset with a mic)
[16:58] <milo_> Hey, anybody know to undo the newspaper template?
[16:58] <milo_> Oh, and hello.
[16:58] <eutheria> bullgard4, common problem?
[16:59] <llutz_> lantizia: who tells the user to backup "~/Games" if it exist? he doesn't know it's important
[16:59] <lantizia> well who (freedesktop.org maybe?) came up with the idea of these folders ("Desktop", "Documents", "Downloads", "Music", "Pictures", "Public", "Templates", "Videos") with special icons anyway?
