[21:21] <Hakot> hello can someone help me with teamspeak 3? i cant talk but hear the other users
[21:21] <Polta> I deleted linux-kernel-2.6.28-13 by hand and now apt-get wants to remove the module but its broken? anyone?
[21:21] <Diverdude> lgc, i see...are there any plans on that?
[21:21] <lgc> Diverdude, but that's years away in the best case.
[21:21] <Diverdude> lgc, hmm damn
[21:21] <trijntje> owner: here it says why it's so hard http://blogs.ubuntu-nl.org/dennis/2006/09/13/more-fun-with-usplash/
[21:21] <Diverdude> lgc, is it a big module?
[21:22] <Polta> I guess thats a no then
[21:22] <lgc> Diverdude, what's more, you can blame most of your system crashes on graphics-engine related issues.
[21:22] <Polta> lol
[21:22] <owner> trijntje I'm still not convinced that it uses usplash
[21:22] <owner> trijntje every website says it does not.
[21:23] <Diverdude> lgc, hmm when was xorg created?
[21:23] <BluesKaj> Polta, open synaptic /edit /fix broken packages , and it will remove it
[21:23] <fungos> anyone using vga SiS onboard?
[21:23] <owner> trijntje Find something specifically about Ubuntu 9.10 using Usplash and I'll be sold.
[21:23] <arbri> hello,  i have problems with booting ubuntu anyone can help?
[21:24] <owner> trijntje I know you can force Ubuntu to use Usplash but that would be a very bad idea.
[21:24] <lgc> Diverdude, it's not a module. See it like an onion: on the center is the kernel, then the shell, then the graphics engine, then the desktop systems (GNOME, KDE, XFCE, etc.) and then the applications. Sort of.
[21:24] <Kieran0413> fungos, Only with a reaaaaly old thinkpad T23, not sure that helps though?
[21:24] <ameya> calwig, if you can resize / reduce  current partition then it will be easy to install ubuntu on newly created free space
[21:24] <Kieran0413> arbri, what are your problems? Just ask and if anybody knows I'm sure they'll help
[21:24] <arbri> ok thnx
[21:24] <scott_ino2> Can anyone help me in mounting an ext3 network share?
[21:24] <scott_ino2> I can ssh into it, but would like it to be locally mounted
[21:25] <Diverdude> lgc, ohhh i kinda thought that all nix system was as opposed to windows systems module based
[21:25] <Kieran0413> scott_ino2, what are you running on the server, I assume you have samba or something running?
[21:25] <Dr_Willis> !info sshfs
[21:25] <calwig> ameya, I have not tried that yet, but will
[21:25] <scott_ino2> Kieran0413, im using drobo and droboshare
[21:25] <scott_ino2> formated as ext3
[21:25] <Kieran0413> scott_ino2, Ahh, then I honestly don't have a clue, sshfs may be an option as Dr_Willis pointed out
[21:26] <scott_ino2> everyone else can see it as a network share... "network" in ubuntu doesn't seem to pick it up, but like I said I can ssh into it just fine
[21:26] <scott_ino2> basically i don't want my transfers going over the net, since it's local network, ssh doesn't make sense
[21:26] <lgc> Diverdude, Windoze is also layer-based. On the center is DOS and its components and then the graphical interface. I suppose this is a common paradigm of operating systems design.
[21:26] <arbri> i've installed ubuntu 9.10 inside windows 7, and untill today everything run smoothly, but today after updating my system (i think th elinux headers were updated) when i try to run linux, it doesnt boot but it gives me a GRUB (bash) shell, anyone knows what i can do?
[21:27] <Dr_Willis> scott_ino2:  you mean its a SAMBA share? or a NFS share?
[21:27] <scott_ino2> Kieran0413, the documentation say it's using SMB/CIFS so i thought ubuntu would pick it up under "network"
[21:27] <scott_ino2> Dr_Willis, yes
[21:27] <domjohnson> Ok, i added myself to the group "audio" but sound still isn't working...do i need to log out and log back in?
[21:27] <guntbert> domjohnson: yes
[21:28] <scott_ino2> Dr_Willis, according to what im reading it should be viewable as a samba/nfs share, but im wondering the "How" part of that. Like I said windows/mac sees it as a SMB share
[21:28] <Kieran0413> scott_ino2, you should be able to connect to it relatively easy then Places -> Connect to Server -> Service Type: "Windows Share" via gui
[21:28] <VCoolio> if I compile a theme engine (i.c. murrine) and then opening an app says 'engine not found', what do I do?
[21:28] <owner> jellow trijntje | I uncovered the secrets of Xsplash (other than just it's directories)
[21:28] <nu1> I am receiving a "capabilities mismatch while attempting to connect to the Ubuntu One Server. You may have installed a newer version of the client..." error. Is there any way to correct this problem, or use an older client?
[21:28] <Dr_Willis> !samba
[21:28] <owner> jellow trijntje | First I went here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/xsplash and downloaded the source code
[21:29] <owner> jellow trijntje | Now I can see exactly how it works.
[21:29] <harpreet_> an onscreen keybaord help!
[21:29] <arbri> when o try to start ubuntu 9.10, i see only the bash shell, any one knows why?
[21:30] <owner> jellow trijntje | We are looking for a file called xsplash.conf first of all.
[21:30] <domjohnson> brb
[21:30] <nu1> owner, do you know where is it?
[21:30] <harpreet_> i want an onscreen keyboard help!
[21:30] <owner> I'm searching
[21:30] <trijntje> owner, pff, that hard? I cant even read code.. I'm asking in #ubuntu-artwork
[21:30] <owner> nu1
[21:30] <ameya> arbri, grub (the bootloader) might not be able to locate the correct kernel / initrd image
[21:30] <fungos> Kieran0413: are you using that Thinkpad T23 with ubuntu? which version?
[21:31] <arbri> how do i tell him where is the correct kernel?
[21:31] <qwertyjustin> Hi - is it safe to use ubuntu 5.10 as my new server OS
[21:31] <qwertyjustin> ?
[21:31] <scott_ino2> Kieran0413, ok but then am I using the IP or the share name for the "Server" field
[21:31] <ameya> arbri, is it bash shell / grub shell?
[21:31] <owner> jellow trijntje nu1 | This may not directly lead me where I need to go but maybe indirectly.
[21:31] <Aquaraptor> 5.10? probably not
[21:31] <arbri> yes
[21:31] <Dr_Willis> qwertyjustin:  5.10? err no
[21:31] <arbri> grub shell
[21:31] <qwertyjustin> because of lack of security updates etc?
[21:31] <Aquaraptor> qwertyjustin, that and it is just ancient
[21:31] <qwertyjustin> is 7.10 still supported?
[21:31] <Dr_Willis> qwertyjustin:  why bother with one that ole?
[21:31] <Aquaraptor> why not use 9.10 server?
[21:32] <qwertyjustin> my amd sempron server doesnt seem to support the biggest latest n greatest distros
[21:33] <nu1> I am receiving a "capabilities mismatch while attempting to connect to the Ubuntu One Server. You may have installed a newer version of the client..." error. Is there any way to correct this problem, or use an older client?
[21:33] <owner> jellow trijntje nu1 | There is a whole list of potential files that I may need to search for.
[21:33] <qwertyjustin> mostly just freezes when u pop in the iso discs
[21:33] <arbri> ameya | do you at least know of a way i can get my data from my /home directory
[21:33] <Diverdude> lgc, so xorg is the weak point of linux?
[21:33] <ameya> arbri, i am checking about the grub command
[21:33] <arbri> thnx
[21:33] <trijntje> owner: can I pm you?
[21:33] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  video card makers not releaseing specs - is the big issue
[21:34] <nu1> owner, I can help you if you list the files
[21:34] <trijntje> owner, nu1 /etc/dbus-1/system.d/xsplash.conf
[21:34] <scott_ino2> Kieran0413, i can get it to prompt for a password then it fails, and there's only one password haha
[21:35] <scott_ino2> Kieran0413, got it working, should this local now? vs when i was ssh'ing into it?
[21:36] <Diverdude> Dr_Willis, ok...so again it boils down to lack of drivers?
[21:36] <pawel__> huhiko
[21:36] <owner> jellow trijntje nu1 | /etc/dbus-1/system.d/xsplash.conf thanks nu1 I just found it myself
[21:36] <Dr_Willis> scott_ino2:  the users samba password can be different from their login drivers, 'sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME' to set a samba password
[21:36] <ameya> arbri, can you try "linux /boot/v<press tab>"
[21:37] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  it lack of proper support from the HW makers to allow proper drivers to be made.
[21:37] <scott_ino2> Dr_Willis, i got it ;) im in
[21:37] <arbri> yes i get vmlinuz-2......
[21:37] <arbri> a lot filet
[21:37] <arbri> files
[21:37] <ameya> arbri, or "ls /boot" at grub shell
[21:37] <pawel__> hi yol
[21:37] <scott_ino2> Dr_Willis, wondering if this will now work locally and not have to traverse the interwebs like it was doing when uploading files via ssh
[21:37] <Dr_Willis> scott_ino2:  thers cases where you may be better off with nfs or sshfs over samba
[21:37] <owner> jellow trijntje nu1 | /etc/dbus-1/system.d/ I'm pretty sure whatever we need to find it's in this directory as far as .conf files.
[21:37] <arbri> when i do that i get to see the vmlinuz files!
[21:37] <pawel__> is there anyone who knows how to install cloraine
[21:38] <Dr_Willis> scott_ino2:  ssh to the ip should be direct as samba is.
[21:38] <owner> jellow trijntje nu1 | I didn't know to look here before
[21:38] <Dr_Willis> scott_ino2:  sshfs may be slower at transfers.. nfs will poberly be faster then samba
[21:38] <ameya> arbri, "linux /boot/vmlinuz-<highest version>"
[21:38] <hope> #ubuntu-br
[21:38] <Dr_Willis> sshfs is easy to get going however.
[21:38] <Diverdude> Dr_Willis, is there at all any prospects of proper support from HW makers in the future?
[21:38] <smegzor> My computer (ubuntu 9.10 64bit) has recently started crashing back to the login randomly.  Is this happening to anyone else and which log might tell me what happened?
[21:38] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  every so often nvidia and ati make promises...
[21:38] <ameya> arbri, after linux command try: "initrd /boot/initrd-<same version>"
[21:38] <scott_ino2> Dr_Willis, sigh... upload was 225k... im dealing with HUGE files here.
[21:39] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  Intel seems to be giveing better support more and more
[21:39] <Dr_Willis> scott_ino2:  nfs may be worth doing then.
[21:39] <Diverdude> Dr_Willis, but they cannnot be held up to those promises?
[21:39] <scott_ino2> Dr_Willis, I'm not sure that's an option with my hardware
[21:39] <owner> jellow trijntje nu1 | These conf files don't contain directories. I'm trying to get one of these files to tell me where it is going but they don't. It's almost like they have a command that executes a script that launches the file.
[21:39] <scott_ino2> and the speeds i talked about was before i'm testing now
[21:40] <arbri> ameya | ok i'll try many thanks!!!
[21:40] <Dr_Willis> scott_ino2:  what does nfs have to do with hardware? If ya got a linux  box  it can do nfs. :)
[21:40] <Dr_Willis> !nfs
[21:40] <owner> jellow trijntje nu1 | I wish these files were easier to look at. The more I look at them the more they look "closed source" instead of "Open Source"
[21:40] <sn[a]ke> how do i repatition my camera?
[21:40] <Maletor> When I try to remove packages with Synaptic I get a lot of artifacts because not all the dependencies get destroyed. What should I do about this? (e.g. installing Wine installs several other things (libxxx) yet uninstalling Wine only uninstalls "wine".)
[21:41] <scott_ino2> Dr_Willis, this is a droboshare.. proprietary hardware
[21:41] <sn[a]ke> how do i repartition my camera?
[21:41] <arghh2d2> sn[a]ke: gparted
[21:41] <sn[a]ke> arghh2d2, thanks
[21:41] <Dr_Willis> why do you need to partitioon a camera.. is a good question
[21:41] <trijntje> owner, yeah, they are chinese to me
[21:42] <arghh2d2> Dr_Willis: heheh, who knows.
[21:42] <deserteagle> i have a simple bash question
[21:42] <owner> jellow trijntje nu1 | how long are you guys going to be on today?
[21:42] <deserteagle> how do i pipe the results of an awk'd ls to vlc?
[21:43] <thoeger> Maletor:  If you are relatively familiar with the command line, aptitude is really good at keeping track of automatically installed dependencies.
[21:43] <arghh2d2> you could maybe put a live usb image on a camera, that way your school librarian thinks your doing something legit with your camera
[21:43] <karmst> what torrent client is accepted by most trackers that linux provides?
[21:44] <harpreet_> i want an onscreen keyboard help!
[21:44] <deserteagle> all of them?
[21:44] <arghh2d2> karmst: rtorrent works for me
[21:44] <JenniferB> how can I see what ports are listening for traffic ?
[21:44] <deserteagle> transmission, here
[21:44] <karmst> is rtorrent like utorrent?
[21:44] <deserteagle> harpreet_, shoot
[21:44] <trijntje> owner, I think half an hour? its already night here
[21:44] <airtonix> deserteagle, does this help  : http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/2156
[21:44] <arghh2d2> karmst: rtorrent is ncurses
[21:44] <arghh2d2> karmst: meaning command line
[21:44] <JenniferB> how can I make sure that no known has entered and left a backdoor
[21:45] <karmst> ah
[21:45] <arghh2d2> karmst: frostwire is probly what you want
[21:45] <harpreet_> deserteagle: how can i have an onscreen keyboard? i want to type a different language with mouse
[21:45] <Diverdude> ok...what is the difference between gcc-4.4 and g++   ?
[21:46] <airtonix> JenniferB, try running : onboard
[21:46] <karmst> ok but does Frostwire allow encryption?
[21:46] <acicula> Diverdude: C vs C++
[21:46] <jacob_> Hello, I ve been building wordpress sites on a shared hosting with godaddy.com I've just installed XAMPP on Ununtu Server and I have a few newbie questions. 1) where is my root directory or how do I specify. 2) Any suggestions about what I could use to manage aliased domains or DNS. 3) Is XAMPP even a good choice for running my own web hosting?
[21:46] <airtonix> arghh2d2, isn't frostwire just linux version of limewire ?
[21:46] <deserteagle> harpreet_, hmm.... no idea then. Give cellwriter a try, i know it has onscreen and handwriting recognition, but don't know about it supporting different languages
[21:47] <karmst> yeah I really don't want limewire
[21:47] <karmst> I want something like utorrent
[21:47] <airtonix> jacob_, why are you using xamp and not the lamp provided by the repositories  :https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[21:47] <Diverdude> acicula, ohhhh okay.... i installed gcc-4.4...but i do not have g++. Do I need to install that seperatly?
[21:47] <scott_ino2> karmst, check out deluge, can probably do what you need it to do, very versatile
[21:47] <airtonix> JenniferB, woops mistell
[21:47] <guntbert> !xampp | jacob_
[21:47] <harpreet_> Diverdude: thank yhou
[21:47] <scott_ino2> can be daemon based etc...
[21:48] <acicula> Diverdude: i think so
[21:48] <acicula> Diverdude: try starting it?
[21:48] <Kieran0413> jacob_, XAMPP is a pretty poor choice if I'm honest, XAMPP is not meant for production environments, just development and testing, you'd be best installing the lamp stack as airtonix said.
[21:48] <scott_ino2> Dr_Willis, upload is much better with smb :) im on wireless and getting about 350kb/s
[21:48] <Diverdude> acicula, i cannot start it
[21:49] <jacob_> AIRTONIX, Tasksel made it realy easy to install lamp but im so dependent on a GUI
[21:49] <scott_ino2> Dr_Willis, so im guessing if i plug in i'll be good
[21:49] <karmst> hey yeah deluge looks promising
[21:49] <airtonix> jacob_, why? you shouldn't need a gui for lamp
[21:49] <karmst> I'm getting rid of my windows torrent server and switching to ubuntu =)
[21:50] <blakkheim> jacob_: if you need a GUI for something like that, you probably shouldn't be running any kind of server (no offense)
[21:50] <airtonix> jacob_, the only thing you need to know (in 9.10) to control lamp is : start apache2 or start mysql
[21:50] <deserteagle> how do i know if a program takes in stout as parameters?
[21:50] <arghh2d2> airtonix: frostwire is one of those super all in one file sharing programs...it's the most bloated of all the torrent clients that linux offers imo, just like utorrent imo
[21:50] <qwertyjustin> okay
[21:50] <airtonix> arghh2d2, utorrent is hardly bloat.
[21:50] <JenniferB> airtonix: where you talking to me ?
[21:50] <airtonix> JenniferB, no it was a mistell
[21:50] <qwertyjustin> does anyone know how long fedora 11 is supported for?
[21:50] <arghh2d2> airtonix: last time i used it it was
[21:51] <g-me> hey all.. I was wondering if anyone could help with ubuntu clients logging into a windows domain and the login scripts running.
[21:51] <deserteagle> zOMG! the technoviking is here!
[21:51] <airtonix> arghh2d2, pretty sure something that is less than 1mb in filesize doesn;t qaulify for bloat
[21:51] <scott_ino2> qwertyjustin, unless they've changed their support cycles should be two-releases after
[21:51] <scott_ino2> at least that's what it used to be
[21:51] <JenniferB> how can I see what ports are open ? listening on traffick ?
[21:51] <scott_ino2> so... 18months give or take
[21:51] <g-me> Im aware i will need to create a linux specific script but just havent done this before.
[21:51] <feed_me_seymour> If I change an Ubuntu 8.04 Server LTS from 1 CPU to 2 CPUs, is there anything I need to do at the OS level to enable multiprocessor support?
[21:51] <nu1> owner, not much :(
[21:51] <Melvinov> so u jackasses can't run gta ormw2?
[21:51] <Melvinov> why not?
[21:52] <jacob_> AIRTRONIX i've been using GoDaddy.com's shared hosting for a few years and using ubuntu as well as linux mint for desktops I'm ready to take the jump into running my own server instead of 15+ shared hosting accounts i just need a starting place.
[21:52] <airtonix> JenniferB, you can use jnettop
[21:52] <deserteagle> JenniferB, IIRC, ports aren't opened unless a program requests them
[21:52] <acicula> Melvinov: check your language please
[21:52] <owner> jellow trijntje nu1 | well here is a new development. /usr/bin/ has the xsplash executable. Dosen't do us any good but that's where it is.
[21:52] <arghh2d2> airtonix: my bad, i must have utorrent mixed up with something else.
[21:52] <airtonix> jacob_, follow that link i pasted first
[21:52] <arghh2d2> azureus maybe
[21:52] <airtonix> arghh2d2, i can think of a few but its been too long since ive used them
[21:52] <amikrop> Hello, what is the directory where the default wallpapers are stored in?
[21:52] <qwertyjustin> oh perfect
[21:52] <qwertyjustin> thanks
[21:52] <Melvinov> ubuntu sucks
[21:52] <acicula> Melvinov: you can run some windows programs through wine or the commerical cedega/crossover stuff
[21:53] <trijntje> owner: dpkg -L usplash shows all locations used by the package
[21:53] <blakkheim> !op | Melvinov
[21:53] <scott_ino2> arghh2d2, what exactly are you trying to do?
[21:53] <blinkiz> I have a new computer here at home. Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8 Ghz with a AMD (ATI) Radeon HD 3870 with proprietary drivers. Alright, I can not manage to play 1080p high definition movies with smplayer/mplayer. Can anyone point me in the right direction how to tune this?
[21:53] <jacob_> AIRTRONIX Thanks
[21:53] <acicula> Melvinov: this is not a discussion channel
[21:53] <airtonix> jacob_, previous version of ubuntu (and other linux releases ) had you control apache with /etc/init.d/apache2 restart | stop | start
[21:53] <deserteagle> Melvinov, opinions can be taken to #ubuntu-ot
[21:53] <trijntje> owner, can you join #ubuntustudio-devel, someon there knows how to do it
[21:53] <jrib> Melvinov: are you going to stop?  This channel is for support *only*
[21:53] <owner> jellow trijntje nu1 | xslash is what I'm looking at.
[21:53] <JenniferB> deserteagle: yes.. but I want to know what ports are open.. listening on incoming traffick.. what ports programs have open?
[21:53] <Melvinov> support for suckage?
[21:53] <Melvinov> a misnomer
[21:54] <acicula> JenniferB: netstat -tulpna | grep LISTEN
[21:54] <airtonix> jacob_, feel free to ask in here, i run lamp for my own web development reasons
[21:54] <deserteagle> thank you :)
[21:54] <acicula> or any variation of netstat that you like
[21:54] <deserteagle> JenniferB, oic, then in that case, netstat -n
[21:55] <airtonix> JenniferB, i use this command in a desktop shortcut to do this : xterm -geometry 200x124+30+400 -e watch -d "netstat -ntauple" &
[21:55] <jacob_> Airtonix I will thank you. I'm sure you understand the need then to run my own server and not rely on godaddy.
[21:55] <airtonix> JenniferB, the relevant part of that is : netstat -ntauple
[21:55] <scott_ino2> jacob_, own servers ftw
[21:55] <Diverdude> YEEEEES IT WORKS :D
[21:56] <airtonix> jacob_, doesn't godaddy provide virtual servers ?
[21:56] <deserteagle> airtonix, niiice thanks! :D
[21:56] <airtonix> jacob_, i think a2hosting provide virtual server where you can have ubuntu server installed on it
[21:57] <chill3r> anybody rec a good nzb client on ubuntu?
[21:57] <Diverdude> i might be extremely slow...but eventually i will get there hehehe
[21:57] <JenniferB> there is allot of established connection on wierd ports
[21:57] <JenniferB> am I hacked?
[21:58] <deserteagle> reboot and run the program again
[21:58] <airtonix> JenniferB, which one are you looking at ? netstat or jnettop ?
[21:58] <deserteagle> if it still has a lot of ports open, you've got spam :P
[21:58] <JenniferB> netstat -ntauple
[21:58] <deserteagle> (assuming you've closed all programs that need a connection, except your IRC client)
[21:58] <airtonix> JenniferB, look at the program on the far right
[21:59] <jacob_> Airtonix yes but why pay some one else. I have the harware and Business acct with my ISP. I want to learn anyways. I think my business would be more efficient running my own host and understanding  it plus i can sell the service to my customers and stop losing money referring them elsewhere.
[21:59] <airtonix> jacob_, makes sense
[21:59] <JenniferB> airtonix.. I will post on a pastebin.. but I need to do a reboot to clean out some trials with ssh
[22:00] <JenniferB> but i will post now.. for fear that the server might not go on ( happend once before)
[22:01] <acicula> jacob_: until you have a security issue, you can still manage servers but outsource the actual maintenance
[22:01] <acicula> s/can/could
[22:01] <malik_> hi all
[22:01] <JenniferB> airtonix: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m6615a266
[22:01] <arbri> how can i set the root device from the grub shell?

[22:01] <deserteagle> arbri: cd /
[22:02] <acicula> malik_: to let the magic smoke out :/ ?
[22:02] <deserteagle> lol
[22:02] <deserteagle> usb through mini-plug?
[22:02] <acicula> looks like a 4-pole 3.5" jack to usb without any hardware?
[22:02] <JenniferB> I think the established are harmless now that I see it
[22:02] <malik_> for what ?
[22:02] <acicula> deserteagle: yeah special usb connector?
[22:02] <JenniferB> but what are the time wait ports  ?
[22:02] <acicula> JenniferB: those are tcp/ip states
[22:03] <airtonix> JenniferB, ports which where used previously
[22:03] <iAmerikan> Can anyone help me with a mount issue?
[22:03] <deserteagle> i'll help you mount ;)
[22:03] <sfears> ask away iAmerikan
[22:03] <hamzaatova2> if im looking to take a snapshop of somethiing that can symbole tinyety and smallness in the system of ubuntu what would it be?????
[22:03] <airtonix> JenniferB, you'll see every two seconds that when netstat updates the screen you'll see the changes get highlighted
[22:03] <arbri> how can i set the root device from the grub shell?
[22:04] <deserteagle> arbri: cd /
[22:04] <deserteagle> err
[22:04] <sfears> hamzaatova2: what are you talking about?
[22:04] <deserteagle> nevermind
[22:04] <JenniferB> byt running netstat -ntauple ?
[22:04] <deserteagle> didn't read the "grub" part
[22:04] <iAmerikan> ok :D Well, I'm trying to mount my root directory through the 8.10 livecd
[22:04] <hamzaatova2> i think that all the icons should br changed to something different
[22:04] <sfears> i'm not sure arbri
[22:04] <iAmerikan> but, it's saying that it can't read the ext4 when my partition is ext3
[22:04] <airtonix> JenniferB, yes, you may find jnettop a bit more sane to give you this information
[22:05] <hamzaatova2> sfears, i want to take a snapshot of sometinh that acn symbolice smallness
[22:05] <arbri> i've got problems with grub i cant boot ubuntu
[22:05] <deserteagle> iAmerikan, assuming by "root directory" you mean a linux distro: mount -t auto /dev/sdXXX /mnt
[22:05] <airtonix> JenniferB, actually i mean this command : watch -d "netstat -ntauple"
[22:05] <sfears> mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /folder/to/mount?? iAmerikan
[22:05] <hamzaatova2> in the system
[22:05] <deserteagle> replace XXX with the corresponding partition device
[22:05] <sfears> define snapshot hamzaatova2
[22:06] <diegoviola> does ubuntu come with ndiswrapper by default now?
[22:06] <JenniferB> jnettop is currently not installed.. i only have a console.. it's not grahical or so ?
[22:06] <diegoviola> for wireles cards like broadcom, etc
[22:06] <Out_Cold>  /ns identify Bruce3262
[22:06] <airtonix> jnettop is a console program
[22:06] <Out_Cold> lol time to change passwords
[22:06] <JenniferB> ook.. thanks :)
[22:06] <airtonix> !info jnettop | JenniferB
[22:07] <airtonix> JenniferB, jnettop won't tell you the program using the connection though,
[22:07] <sfears> out_cold.. you should do that from the server connection window
[22:07] <jellow> Out_Cold: i saw nothing ...
[22:07] <ejv> i saw /ns identify *********
[22:07] <hamzaatova2> sfears, screen shot
[22:07] <sfears> your ident has already been pawned!!
[22:07] <Out_Cold> no it hasn't
[22:07] <ejv> Out_Cold: we all see *'s, not alphanumerics ;)
[22:08] <ejv> so you can Bruce3262 all day long ;)
[22:08] <airtonix> JenniferB, which is why i use this script in my ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/monitor-connections.sh (http://paste.ubuntu.com/353153/)
[22:08] <Out_Cold> lol
[22:09] <sfears> you could take a screen shot of linux's market penetration compared to windows penetration hamzaatova2
[22:09] <sfears> that's pretty small
[22:09] <Out_Cold> i try to ident from the server window... but it always cuts me off and i paste bits in the chats..
[22:09] <JenniferB> it's pretty nice though.. it shows what the get requests and such.. but it just keeps swishing by..
[22:09] <Dark_Peter> hola
[22:10] <iAmerikan> deserteagle&sfears: Could you look at the pastebin for what I've been trying? http://paste.ubuntu.com/353156/
[22:10] <Dark_Peter> alguien habla español?
[22:10] <jellow> !es | Dark_Peter
[22:10] <acicula> !es
[22:10] <JenniferB> airtonix: I saved that script, thanks very much.. xterm is graphical ?
[22:10] <Dark_Peter> me puede ayudar alguien a buscar servidores de españa?
[22:11] <airtonix> JenniferB, the xterm is there because i use it from a gui desktop, you can just run  : watch -d "netstat -ntauple"
[22:11] <ubuntu_> test
[22:11] <blinkiz> I have a new computer here at home. Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8 Ghz with a AMD (ATI) Radeon HD 3870 with proprietary drivers. Alright, I can not manage to play 1080p high definition movies with smplayer/mplayer. Can anyone point me in the right direction how to tune this?
[22:11] <Out_Cold> iAmerikan, what type of disk does sudo fdisk -l say it is??
[22:11] <JenniferB> airtonix: got it.. thanks again :)
[22:12] <honky> hi there, i want to make Tomboy Notes startup with my ubuntu - i've found the startup menu in system>preferences but what command should i use because in usr/bin/ i have "tomboy" and "tomboy-panel" but in the shortcut i've created is says in the command "tomboy --search" Which one is correct?
[22:12] <mikeb> Hi
[22:12] <Out_Cold> honky, just tomboy should work
[22:12] <Out_Cold> **/usr/bin/tomboy or just tomboy
[22:12] <sfears> honky.. open a terminal window and type commands until you get the desiered output.. then use that command in your startup
[22:13] <hamzaatova2> sfears, im looking for something different ---- and also within the sys
[22:13] <mikeb> I would like to kno the name of the encrypted file system i choosed in ubuntu setup
[22:13] <sfears> what project is this for hamzaatova2
[22:13] <Darkedge> Anyone here dpkg things? D:<
[22:13] <acicula> Darkedge: -i :P?
[22:14] <Kieran0413> mikeb, I can't say for sure but at a guess it's probably dmcrypt
[22:14] <Darkedge> acicula: do you want something to dpkg, its only small...
[22:14] <Jp82191> hello guys and girls
[22:14] <Kieran0413> Jp82191, hi there
[22:14] <Out_Cold> Jp82191, there are no girls in here... that's just a myth
[22:14] <mikeb> its a system-wilde encryption
[22:14] <Jp82191> lol
[22:14] <acicula> Darkedge: probably not
[22:14] <scott_ino2> Out_Cold, lol
[22:14] <Jp82191> u never know
[22:14] <scott_ino2> maybe a few...
[22:14] <Jp82191> i have a question for you guys
[22:14] <Darkedge> kyle6513: hello fellow aussie maybe you should geta cloak :P
[22:15] <kyle6513> hey, I'm having trouble with ubuntu netbook remix running an eeepc 1000H, upon using the desktop stuff it has locked up on me, what should I do?
[22:15] <Out_Cold> out of 1419.. probably 3
[22:15] <mikeb> and i would like not to enter the passphrase while booting, like saving it on an usb drive or i dunnow..
[22:15] <Darkedge> kyle6513: ALT+CONTROL+Backspace
[22:15] <kyle6513> Darkedge: whys that? :P
[22:15] <mikeb> i probably should install grub on an usb pen
[22:15] <Darkedge> kyle6513: It force restarts X
[22:15] <scott_ino2> Darkedge, didn't they disable that in the last release
[22:15] <Jp82191> Should I get the netbook version of ubuntu for a laptop?
[22:15] <scott_ino2> by default at least
[22:15] <Darkedge> scott_ino2: did they? :/
[22:15] <sfears> ctrl+alt+f1 then kdm restart or /etc/init.d/kdm restart kyle6513
[22:15] <scott_ino2> Darkedge, im about to find out
[22:16] <scott_ino2> yup
[22:16] <scott_ino2> lol
[22:16] <kyle6513> Darkedge: didnt work D:
[22:16] <Out_Cold> mikeb, not a wise option... although you can save your passphrase on a usb or sd card so i've heard
[22:16] <sfears> ctrl+alt+f1 then kdm restart or /etc/init.d/kdm restart kyle6513
[22:16] <kyle6513> sfears: thankss
[22:16] <sfears> ctrl+alt+backspace sometimes is disabled by default
[22:16] <scott_ino2> Darkedge, you can enable it apparently
[22:16] <ubuntu_> how to get flashplayer for my google chrome? new xubuntu
[22:16] <h1> I made a LiveUSB and then updated packages. I just forwarded when asked a couple of questions - both relating to grub. The 2nd I remember: it asked me something like whether grub should edit sda or sdb. I left both blank. When I then attempted rebooting I got a repeated Fatal message: could not load /lib/modules/2.6.31-17-generic/modules.dep. Help please.
[22:17] <kyle6513> sfears: its telling me that it isnt installed?
[22:17] <scott_ino2> ubuntu_, if you'[re using the chrome PPA it should recognize your flashplayer_plugin automatically
[22:17] <Jp82191> Should i get Ubuntu Desktop 9.10 or Netbook remix for a laptop
[22:17] <sfears> sorry.. try gdm
[22:17] <kyle6513> sfears: yeah, i thought it was gnome ;p
[22:17] <scott_ino2> Jp82191, if it's a normal size notebook get the full desktop, if small netbook say 10" get netbookremix
[22:17] <iflema> Jp82191: you could use NBR . you can use regular flavours, theres also moblin/ubuntu remix
[22:17] <Darkedge> kyle6513: Try PrintScreen+ALT+B
[22:17] <ubuntu_> scott_ino2, what is PPA? i think i am not using that, i got google chrome beta from google site in .deb
[22:17] <Aquaraptor> does anyone know of a good keystroke based application launcher?
[22:17] <blakkheim> Jp82191: use a minimal iso
[22:18] <mneptok> Aquaraptor: gnome-do
[22:18] <Aquaraptor> cool thanks
[22:18] <Darkedge> kyle6513: Otherwise hard-reboot (even though thats the worst thing to do)
[22:18] <mneptok> !info gnome-do
[22:18] <karmst> What server is the Wine IRC chat at?
[22:18] <sfears> Aquaraptor: reassign alt+f2 to alt+space
[22:18] <Darkedge> kyle6513: and if none of those work, I suggest you reenable ALT+CNTRL+Backspace
[22:18] <Jp82191> which would you guys recommend because my old laptop with a 40gb hdd got effed up beyond repair other that re installing the OS
[22:18] <sfears> keep forgetting this is #ubuntu.. Aquaraptor - krunner
[22:19] <mneptok> Jp82191: what's the CPU, and how much RAM?
[22:19] <sfears> or katapult if it's still supported Aquaraptor
[22:19] <scott_ino2> ubuntu_, I'm running Chromium dailly ppa, not official chrome releases, so depends on what you want. Chromium=community release of chrome
[22:19] <kyle6513> Darkedge: i can still access panel, but the thingy(for lack of a better word) has locked up, I was going to attempt to switch back to normal desktop mode but, to no avail
[22:19] <acicula> Jp82191: 1gb mem or more you probably want the normal ubuntu
[22:19] <Jp82191> ram is less than 512mb
[22:19] <blakkheim> Jp82191: a minimal install with a lightweight window manager
[22:19] <mneptok> Jp82191: you want Xubuntu
[22:19] <Darkedge> kyle6513: Can you ALT+CONTROL+F2?
[22:19] <sfears> you could try "damn small linux".. runs in 512 memory
[22:19] <kyle6513> sfears: that restarted X, just didnt restart the app in the desktop
[22:19] <scott_ino2> ubuntu_, for chromium ppa see here: https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa
[22:19] <ubuntu_> scott_ino2, is chromium better than chrome? supports extensions?
[22:19] <acicula> whats the program that elts you set W xor X flags on memory segments of an elf binary
[22:19] <kyle6513> Darkedge: sure can
[22:19] <acicula> *lets
[22:20] <sfears> i thought that's what you were trying to do kyle6513.. what were you trying to do?
[22:20] <Darkedge> kyle6513: login as you, sudo reboot
[22:20] <canthus13> DSL will run wil 64 mb ram and a 486....
[22:20] <patcito> hi
[22:20] <patcito> how do I install a new locale such as "en_US.UTF-8" ?
[22:20] <sfears> it is damn small
[22:20] <kyle6513> sfears: this is ubuntu netbook remix, theres a thing embedded into the desktop that is a substitute for a er, start menu, and it has locked up on me
[22:20] <Jp82191> what is the difference between xubuntu and ubuntu bcuz on my desktop i have ubuntu
[22:20] <scott_ino2> ubuntu_, yes it supports exensions, and i don't know ive only used chromium, works for me, you'll occasionally get unstable builds (since it's a daily build)
[22:20] <mneptok> DSL is also not a very friendly distro for those without some Linux experience.
[22:20] <scott_ino2> but you can simply disable it from upgrading once you get a stable version
[22:21] <mneptok> Jp82191: Ubuntu uses GNOME for a desktop environment. Xubuntu uses XFCE.
[22:21] <iflema> Jp82191: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements
[22:21] <scott_ino2> ubuntu_, to use the ppa, see the part about adding this ppa to your system, and click where it says technical details about this ppa
[22:21] <kyle6513> sfears: but dsl is damn hard to use for newbies :P
[22:21] <sfears> i figured that would have reset it kyle
[22:21] <mneptok> Jp82191: if you can use Ubuntu with GNOME you'll be able to use Xubuntu with XFCE.
[22:22] <mneptok> Jp82191: there's a learning curve, but it's very, very shallow.
[22:22] <scott_ino2> basically you just copy the deb, and deb-src as separate lines in System/Administration/Synaptic then.. under preferences/repositories/click add
[22:22] <kyle6513> sfears: nope, guess not, trying a hard reset then
[22:22] <sfears> kyle
[22:22] <sfears> sudo reboot from terminal window
[22:22] <Jp82191> ok
[22:22] <Jp82191> im going to go for Xubuntu
[22:22] <blakkheim> Jp82191: even xubuntu is pretty bloated
[22:22] <iflema> Jp82191: good one
[22:22] <albert_> Hi
[22:23] <ducailnero> !list
[22:23] <Jp82191> ok so im getting Xubuntu Desktop version 9.10 right?
[22:23] <iflema> Jp82191
[22:23] <Jp82191> yeah
[22:23] <albert_> I can't increase refresh-rate higher than 50Hz in ubuntu 9.10
[22:23] <mneptok> Jp82191: yup, unless you want the text-mode installer. if so, get the -alternate.
[22:23] <ubuntu_> scott_ino2, where to add this line? ppa:chromium-daily/ppa
[22:23] <sn[a]ke> how can I edit my terminal look ( the way the black part looks )
[22:23] <Out_Cold> blakkheim, nothing wrong with old fashioned WMs
[22:24] <Jp82191> ok
[22:24] <[psyk]> sn[a]ke: easy. right click, properties. lol
[22:24] <Eraldo> Can someone please help me get Tor running with Firefox in Ubuntu 9.10 64bit? I have followed the instructions from the Ubuntu help site but it does not work
[22:24] <Eraldo> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tor?action=show&redirect=TOR
[22:24] <sfears> have had much better luck with the alternate installer assuming ethernet connection mneptok Jp82191
[22:24] <blakkheim> Out_Cold: i only use a lightweight wm
[22:24] <mneptok> Jp82191: the text-mode installer uses fewer resources.
[22:24] <scott_ino2> ubuntu_, go to System/Administration/Synaptic
[22:24] <Jp82191> ok
[22:24] <sn[a]ke> [psyk], where are you getting properties from?
[22:24] <iflema> Jp82191 http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/9.10/release/
[22:24] <Jp82191> but im not using ethernet im using Wireless
[22:25] <scott_ino2> ubuntu_, then Settings/Repositories
[22:25] <[psyk]> sn[a]ke: i know there's something in the right click menu, it's been so long since i've used ubuntu or debian...
[22:25] <[psyk]> sn[a]ke: slackware all the way.
[22:25] <mneptok> Jp82191: you can configure that easily once the system is installed. and then get the updates.
[22:25] <Kieran0413> sn[a]ke, are you talking about gnome-terminal?
[22:25] <albert_> I can't increase refresh-rate higher than 50Hz in ubuntu 9.10 64bit. It can not work with refresh more than 50Hz
[22:25] <nightsjammies> Hey, is there anyone in here that uses the openoffice spreadsheet program?
[22:25] <sn[a]ke> right click on my terminal nothing named properties or even close to meaning properties
[22:25] <Jp82191> so which should i get then the alternate or the desktop one?
[22:25] <sn[a]ke> yes Kieran0413
[22:25] <sfears> why do you ask nightsjammies
[22:26] <scott_ino2> ubuntu_, then click other software tab, then click add, Keep in mind they are two separate apt lines on the website so you'll need to do this twice
[22:26] <Kieran0413> sn[a]ke, profiles -> profile preferences
[22:26] <sfears> do you have an ehternet or wifi Jp82191
[22:26] <mneptok> Jp82191: up to you. what's your preference, a grpahical installer or a text-mode installer?
[22:26] <[psyk]> sn[a]ke: right click in the title bar, I know there's someplace that you can edit terminal settings for a user...
[22:26] <scott_ino2> or just get the deb, main if you don't care about the src
[22:26] <nightsjammies> Because I can't get any help over at the openoffice channel.
[22:26] <Jp82191> Sfears: im using wifi
[22:26] <sfears> use desktop
[22:26] <Jp82191> ok
[22:26] <nightsjammies> And I can't figure out how to do something.
[22:26] <Jp82191> downloading now
[22:26] <scott_ino2> ubuntu_, then hit close and "Reload" then search for chromium in synaptic (make sure it's the browser and not something else)
[22:26] <iflema> jP82191: live could be good to see how/if itll go....
[22:26] <sfears> ask away nightsjammies
[22:27] <MrKeuner> hello, on hardy is it possible to log in to the wireless network(which requires password and which is saved by netowrk manager applet) without entering any passowrd to unlock the keyring?
[22:27] <sfears> i think so MrKeuner.. just cancel when it prompts for the keyring
[22:27] <miihackwii> hi all can anyone help me to reinstall Postgresql
[22:28] <MrKeuner> sfears, there is already a keyring on it, can I still do that?
[22:28] <sfears> miihackwii: apt-get remove --purge postgresql && apt-get install postgresql
[22:28] <nightsjammies> I've got a spreadsheet with about 15 columns, and in one of the fields, the text extends beyond the border. If I try and hit 'enter' it won't drop down to the next line.
[22:28] <MrKeuner> sfears, at least for once, I have to reboot a laptop and expect it to reconnect
[22:28] <ubuntu_> scott_ino2, i added only one line ppa:chromium-daily/ppa and it worked
[22:28] <nightsjammies> Does that make sense?
[22:28] <valley> MrKeuner: set the keyring password to nothing, just leave it blank
[22:28] <sfears> one way to find out MrKeuner
[22:28] <MrKeuner> valley, ah would that work
[22:28] <Jp82191> MrKeuner: if when is starts you make sure to check avaliable to all users you shouldn't get that warning or box when you start up
[22:28] <nightsjammies> So then when I Page Preview my sheet, part of the text is cut off.
[22:28] <miihackwii> thankyou i will give it a go
[22:28] <Jp82191> thats how i had my wireless set up
[22:29] <scott_ino2> ubuntu_, like i said, this is a DAILY build, so be careful, you can turn off getting daily updates through where you added the lines, just turn it off if you dont' want a new version everyday
[22:29] <nightsjammies> Oh, and I can't get anything on my wireless, either.
[22:29] <nightsjammies> Not sure why.
[22:29] <sfears> nightsjammies: there is no next line in a spreadsheet.. you need to adjust the column sizes
[22:29] <ubuntu_> scott_ino2, how to turn off? by removing ticks from those lines?
[22:29] <scott_ino2> checkboxes yes
[22:30] <nightsjammies> hmm, I'll try that then.
[22:30] <oCean_> nightsjammies: right-click the cell, and choose format cell
[22:30] <sfears> or nightsjammies
[22:30] <nightsjammies> OKay
[22:30] <sfears> you can use the data entry field above the spreadsheet itself
[22:30] <oCean_> nightsjammies: tab "numbers" choose "text" for category
[22:30] <sfears> you can use the data entry field above the spreadsheet itself nightsjammies
[22:30] <fuzzykittens> how do I overclock a pentium 3?
[22:30] <oCean_> nightsjammies: then to tab alignment and choose "wrap text"
[22:31] <nightsjammies> Okay.
[22:31] <nightsjammies> Oh, I know that.
[22:31] <nightsjammies> Ah, that's what I was missing.
[22:31] <Shiawuon> Hello fellow ubuntu geeks!
[22:31] <Kieran0413> Shiawuon, Hi there
[22:31] <nightsjammies> Sweet, thanks much oCean :)
[22:32] <oCean_> fuzzykittens: ask in ##hardware ?
[22:32] <Shiawuon> Howdy Kieran
[22:32] <fuzzykittens> I have a bloody 5oomhz
[22:32] <fuzzykittens> oh
[22:32] <nightsjammies> Now, I just realized that my computer says that my wireless is Disabled.
[22:32] <fuzzykittens> okay
[22:32] <oCean_> nightsjammies: no problem
[22:32] <basilisk> I'm having a problem booting UNR (or even XP) from a USB.  The Live USB works fine on another computer but on this one, the screen goes to black, waiting for something to happen.  Help.
[22:32] <sfears> fuzzykittens: i believe overclocking requires some soldering
[22:33] <sfears> basilisk: have you used safe graphics mode?
[22:33] <basilisk> sfears: what is that?
[22:33] <Shiawuon> Which IRC client do you use?
[22:33] <fuzzykittens> sfears: a small amount of software overclocking can be done
[22:33] <Kieran0413> fuzzykittens, you'll probably be better served trying to optimize the software you're running, use lighter weight apps/desktop environment, etc
[22:33] <dragon> My window manager gets messed up sometimes, when I connect the laptop to an external monitor. The icon and color theme are affected. Is there a quick fix for this?
[22:33] <dragon> Does it even sound familiar?
[22:33] <sfears> basilisk: in the boot menu.. there should be some fkeys options.. f4 and select safe graphics mode
[22:34] <fuzzykittens> Kieran0413: server, no gui, that's not the problem
[22:34] <basilisk> sfears: for ubuntu or from BIOS?
[22:34] <sfears> sounds like a bad cable dragon?
[22:34] <sfears> for ubuntu basilisk
[22:34] <Kieran0413> fuzzykittens, ahh, ok.
[22:34] <airtonix> dragon, external monitor is connected when you boot the laptop up ?
[22:34] <fuzzykittens> it used to be a 2ghz server and it's f...really annoying to have to go back to 500 mhz
[22:34] <ubuntu_> scott_ino2, how to start chromium? i do not see any application icon
[22:34] <Jp82191> how to burn an iso on ubuntu?
[22:34] <sfears> when it comes up as "try ubuntu without making changes" hit f4 & choose safe graphics
[22:34] <basilisk> sfears: nothing shows up after BIOS is done. no grub, no texts, nada
[22:34] <dragon> airtonix: this problem never happens in that case.
[22:34] <airtonix> Jp82191, right click the ISO and select burn to disc
[22:34] <fuzzykittens> peace
[22:35] <scott_ino2> ubuntu_, if you installed via synaptic it would have added an icon
[22:35] <JenniferB> I am trying to use : http://apt.alturl.com/
[22:35] <JenniferB> what distribution do I have ? (Ubunutu 9.10 desktop)
[22:35] <JenniferB> I am trying to download kernel-devel package
[22:35] <JenniferB> how can I check if I have this package installed already btw ?
[22:35] <Jp82191> ty airtonix
[22:35] <ubuntu_> scott_ino2, i installed chromium game :(
[22:35] <FloodBot1> JenniferB: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:35] <dragon> airtonix: It only happens when I dock this running laptop.
[22:35] <scott_ino2> ubuntu_, did you make sure you installed chromium-browser and not chromium
[22:35] <scott_ino2> yeahhhh
[22:35] <airtonix> dragon, thats because xorg only sniffs nessecary info at boot time.
[22:35] <sfears> jpds: k3b for gui.. i suggest learning the dd command
[22:35] <dragon> airtonix: It usually works perfectly.
[22:35] <MrKeuner> thank you people
[22:35] <airtonix> dragon, except when you hotdock it
[22:35] <basilisk> sfears: another weirdness factor is that an authentic XP CD will boot, an XP copy will not, and a checksum'd Ubuntu CD will not boot either.
[22:36] <dragon> airtonix: hotdock works well 95% of the time.
[22:36] <Kieran0413> basilisk, have you tried burning it on different brand media?
[22:36] <dragon> my understanding is that sometimes a program crashes when I hotdock the laptop.
[22:36] <nightsjammies> Okay, so how do I enable my wireless now?
[22:36] <sfears> basilisk: perhaps you do need to check your boot sequence in the bios or perhaps hit the c key while you boot to enable cdrom/usb boot
[22:36] <basilisk> kieran0413: yes, on DVD and CD
[22:37] <dragon> I'm wondering what program is responsible for Appearance (not Window decorations itself).
[22:37] <[deXter]> Hi can someone help me fix GRUB please? When I run "find /boot/grub/stage1" it cannot find it. Typing setup (hd0) also gives an error.
[22:37] <basilisk> sfears: checked it, allowed to boot and selects correct priority
[22:37] <frederick85> is there a way to limit my bandwidth usage
[22:37] <airtonix> frederick85, yes
[22:37] <filesmasta> HOT NEW TORRENT SEARCH SITE http://Torrentpirates.org
[22:37] <basilisk> I'd use my old XP SP1 CD to boot and install, but it doesn't recognize SATA HDD
[22:37] <oCean_> JenniferB: 9.10 = Karmic Koala, (not mentioned on your url). To check for installed packages do "dpkg -l | grep kernel"
[22:38] <frederick85> airtonix: well i'm playing games and my housemate is complaining about not being able to load internet pages how can I resolve it
[22:38] <JenniferB> ocean_ how can I download this kernel-devel from a windows machine if karmic koala is not listed there
[22:38] <Kieran0413> frederick85, the best way if you have the option on your router would be QoS
[22:39] <airtonix> frederick85, online gaming shouldn't interfer with web browsing. usually its the other way round. what online game ?
[22:39] <frederick85> airtonix: well it's wow, i'm connected via a ethernet cable and they were connected via wireless
[22:39] <oCean_> JenniferB: see here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
[22:40] <airtonix> frederick85, imo their problem is the wifi and their computer not your game
[22:40] <airtonix> frederick85, how much bandwidth does your internet connection have ?
[22:40] <frederick85> airtonix: quite low at the moment because it's shaped
[22:40] <frederick85> shaped at about 10kb
[22:40] <Jp82191> ok ill get to installing it in a bit im frickin trying to get some stuff from my other hdd
[22:40] <airtonix> frederick85, that is the problem then
[22:41] <airtonix> frederick85, 10 kb/sec is pretty much going to affect most things
[22:41] <Tutattis> hey, i encrypted a lvm partition on my hdd using lukFormat cipher. if i do a simple remove/delete tables (quick format) is the encryption lost? I mean if i create new partition table and partitions there wont be an encryption there.. right?
[22:41] <frederick85> airtonix: is there a way i can set my computer to only use a lesser ammount of it
[22:41] <airtonix> frederick85, im suprised you are not having latency issues while you are shaped.
[22:42] <airtonix> frederick85, wow doesn't even use 4kb/s
[22:42] <lgsploosh> Can anyone help me? I am having trouble changing my bios to boot from USB port
[22:42] <frederick85> airtonix: the game doesn't seem to use much bandwidth
[22:42] <airtonix> frederick85, i think your housemate(S) are pretty misinformed tbh
[22:43] <jellow> i have a question about traffic shapping from isp's i have access to my isp's router through a serial cable , If i forward all incomming local P2P traffic to a random port outside the router using iptables will my isp be able to do anything?
[22:43] <JenniferB> oCean: iam trying to install a driver for USB mobile internet device.. and the manual states that I need to have kernel-devel installed.. but can i hurt the system if I do install it +
[22:43] <JenniferB> =
[22:43] <JenniferB> ?
[22:43] <airtonix> frederick85, they should use something to scrub adverts from webpages they view (like adblockplus and noscript)
[22:43] <frederick85> airtonix: well i had a problem with them unplugging my part of the connection and i couldn't get their attention because they are deaf
[22:44] <Kieran0413> jellow, yeah, cut off your service for breaching their terms of service?
[22:44] <Jp82191> lgsploosh: does your motherboard allow it?
[22:44] <airtonix> frederick85, then if the adsl connection isnt owned by you and they are ignorant and unwillining to understand the basics of networking there is nothing you can do
[22:45] <jellow> Kieran0413: They offer unlimited internet i feel no guilt what so ever
[22:45] <frederick85> airtonix: i'm paying for the whole thing,
[22:45] <airtonix> frederick85, then do something about it
[22:45] <[deXter]> jellow: Changing ports won't help in any way, encryption might, but that's if your ISP doesn't throttle all traffic.
[22:45] <lgsploosh> I dont know if it does its the original motherboard that came with HP Pavillion ZE1110. JP
[22:46] <nightsjammies> What's the usb mobile device?
[22:46] <Jp82191> first plug in the usb
[22:46] <frederick85> airtonix: i guess i'll just go to sleep and hope they don't unplug it again
[22:46] <Jp82191> the in the bios go to there it says start up order or boot order
[22:46] <frederick85> night
[22:46] <Jp82191> then move usb all the way to the top and hit save settings
[22:46] <Jp82191> restart and then try again
[22:47] <airtonix> frederick85, seriously, i watch my network connection while playing online games and using browsers : browsers will spike to consume the entire connection until it gets all hte page data...online games at most use up to 6kb/s
[22:47] <lgsploosh> The Usb or removable drive isnt displayed in the bios boot order only hardrive, cd rom, and floppy disk
[22:48] <Jp82191> if its not listed then its not supported
[22:48] <nightsjammies> wlan0: network is down. How do I fix that?
[22:48] <Jp82191> what are you trying to boot from the usb?
[22:48] <lgsploosh> Ubuntu
[22:48] <Jp82191> jammies: turn routher off and on
[22:48] <Jp82191> lgsploosh: burn it to a cd and install that way
[22:49] <Jp82191> lgsploosh: are you using a netbook?
[22:49] <mneptok> lgsploosh: sounds like your BIOS does not support booting from USB. nothing you can do about that, unless a more recent BIOS update adds support for the feature.
[22:49] <lgsploosh> I have the cd already. The issue is my harddrive is fried and im using the usb for a harddrive. No its not a net book
[22:50] <jellow> [deXter]:So even if i use encryption but my isp throttles all traffic , the encryption will not work ?
[22:50] <Tutattis> hey, i encrypted a lvm partition on my hdd using lukFormat cipher. if i do a simple remove/delete tables (quick format) is the encryption lost? I mean if i create new partition table and partitions there wont be an encryption there.. right?
[22:50] <[deXter]> jellow: True
[22:50] <Jp82191> lgsploosh: you lost me there try searching google and see what other options you get
[22:51] <Jp82191> brb foods here
[22:51] <jellow> [deXter]: depressing , But thanks anyway

I've tried the audio editing package to check if it was tasksel or lamp.  my guess is there is a part of apache or mysql or something still installed, and therefore tasksel cannot finish. any ideas?

[22:57] <airtonix> jacob_, i've not used xamp before so i dont know how it deals with stopping and starting the services... but restarting the computer should do it, after that follow the guide on wiki.ubuntu

[22:59] <Jp82191> what kind of dvd drive is it
[22:59] <flootenkerp> It doesn't recognize the dvd-rs
[22:59] <Jp82191> i think you need a different program to burn dvd-r
[22:59] <new2ubutnu> grkblood13 - i always use Toast and just rip the VOBs and recompile
[22:59] <airtonix> flootenkerp, if you insert a blank dvd in the drive does nautlus offer to open the burning applet ?
[23:00] <flootenkerp> Not at all
[23:00] <flootenkerp> It dos with cd-r though.
[23:00] <new2ubutnu> but that
[23:00] <new2ubutnu> 's on a mac
[23:00] <salty> Jp82191, i think you need to install dvdtools from the repositories or something of that effect
[23:00] <karma_police> is there a prog out like bearshare or limewire out for ubuntu?
[23:00] <new2ubutnu> o.k. so I just rebooted..   quick question - do I HAVE to have a user name and password?

[23:09] <new2ubutnu> lol code name?  umm Ubuntu Studio?
[23:09] <dabid> i don't have linux
[23:10] <Eraldo> it does not have to be a SOCKS proxy, does it?

[23:14] <paissad> what's the average speed rate for rsync if we have fast ethernet cards in the local network ? ...
[23:14] <new2ubutnu> just nvidia_new  says it's enabled and not in use - which doesn't make sense to me - cause that's the graphics card and if it's not in use - then why can I see my GUI?
[23:14] <iflema> macondo: do you recieve errors of cant see file(s)?
[23:14] <smiley> paissad: depending if its doing an incremental update or not.. its usually limited to the speed of your network
[23:14] <paissad> actually, my speed rate is 1,5MB/s ..... it seems to be my bandwith over internet .....
[23:14] <smiley> so... 100 meg = ~ 12 Mb/sec
[23:15] <paissad> i expected to have 50MB/s or higher .....
[23:15] <Jp82191> lol new2ubuntu go to the other channel and see what they have to say
[23:15] <iflema> macondo: that of should be or
[23:15] <smiley> one of your cards may be connecting at 10M instead of 100/1000
[23:15] <new2ubutnu> lol thanks Jp
[23:15] <new2ubutnu> later all
[23:15] <smiley> 50 is a bit excessive
[23:15] <Jp82191> later
[23:15] <smiley> i'd say if you reach 20.. be happy..
[23:15] <smiley> 50 is beyond what most hard drives will handle..
[23:15] <blakkheim> having an ssd sure is nice

[23:25] <chriswaterguy> howdy. I'm using 8.10, and can't connect to a DSL modem via cable (Auto eth0). It tells me it's connected but I can't actually connect via browser or Skype. [I'm now using a Vista machine to connect - ack]. Network manager also shows a "DSL connection 1" option but that fails to connect at all.
[23:25] <dhamon> hello
[23:25] <jellow> Eraldo: its a Online tv program youc an only get in US
[23:25] <Jp82191> where it says ssid enter the SSID of the connection you want to connect to
[23:26] <Eraldo> jellow: Oh, nice
[23:26] <datz> chriswaterguy: you've set up a network connection for dsl?
[23:26] <dixienormas> hey could you give me a link to download winehq?
[23:26] <dixienormas> im lazy
[23:26] <basilisk> Question! If I place the LiveCD/Set up CD files onto a partition of a new HDD and put the HDD inside a computer, will it boot the set up?
[23:26] <new2ubutnu> o.k. is SSID going to be on the wireless router coming from the satellite dish
[23:26] <blakkheim> dixienormas: it's an irc channel for wine support..
[23:26] <Eraldo> jellow: what kind of proxy would be needed to be able to do such things?
[23:26] <dhamon> Can someone explain cloud computing to me? I've googled it and read the wikipedia article but still don't full grasp it/
[23:26] <dixienormas> i know that but i need to install wine first
[23:26] <iflema> macondo: phone?
[23:26] <jamesmai> My computer reboots indefinatly on "Grub Loading" , In trying to reinstall Grub to MBR it says can't find /boot/grub/stage1 I've checked and it indeed doesn't exist! Where can I get these necessary files?
[23:26] <blakkheim> dhamon: then you aren't going to grasp our explanation of it either
[23:27] <new2ubutnu> cloud is like the Trees on Avatar Dhamon
[23:27] <Jp82191> new2ubuntu: do you know the name of the connection
[23:27] <growthmetal> how can I see what kernel version I am running?Z
[23:27] <Quasar1048> Heres what it says when i try to install g15macro: http://pastie.org/770897 . What does it need besides libusb and ling15? Anyone know?
[23:27] <bastid_raZor> chriswaterguy: with dsl the modem will send the username/password for the connection. on the ubuntu box you'll use wired to connect.
[23:27] <blakkheim> growthmetal: uname -r
[23:27] <Quasar1048> libg15*
[23:27] <r0k3tm3n> i am looking to write a script to mail me when a user logs in. i have tried a bash script for sendmail and mutt, but neither provide total automation and sendmail requires the root password to run. can anyone help?
[23:27] <basilisk> dhamon: think of it as running programs from someone else's computer
[23:27] <growthmetal> blakkheim: thanks!
[23:27] <new2ubutnu> JP - if I look at my sister's Vista and see what the internet is called is that the SSID
[23:27] <Jp82191> yes
[23:27] <ssn> hi guys
[23:27] <new2ubutnu> o.k. hold one
[23:27] <chriswaterguy> datz: I have to set one up? on Vista it auto-detects, I thought that was normal.
[23:27] <jellow> Eraldo: Proxy would not work you would need a VPN
[23:28] <ssn> i have a big problem with xorg/lxde under ubuntu.
[23:28] <Eraldo> jellow: oh, well I only need to read sites...
[23:28] <datz> chriswaterguy: if you are connected directly to the modem, you have to set up the connection details, same for vista, it must have been set up already. Get your user name and password
[23:28] <ssn> the max resolution always (on any machine) is 800x600
[23:28] <ssn> xrandr says this is the maximum resolution
[23:28] <Dr_Willis> ssn:  give details... video card chipset, monitor type.. what exact dviers you installed..
[23:28] <ssn> what can i do to change this?
[23:29] <ssn> Dr_Willis: virtualbox
[23:29] <datz> chriswaterguy: then right click on the connection icon and go to edit connections, there is a dsl tab, add
[23:29] <ssn> it runs in a virtual machine
[23:29] <Dr_Willis> ssn:  for virtualbox - install the guest-addations
[23:29] <Dr_Willis> ssn:  you will gain higher res and better performacne
[23:29] <ssn> Dr_Willis: but i tried it on 4 different machines and it was the same
[23:29] <yud_zroc> !password
[23:29] <datz> can someone help me with remote desktop?
[23:29] <Dr_Willis> ssn:  you are doing somthing wrong then.   Will it work just to copy over the LiveCD files or do I need more??
[23:30] <crlsgms> hi everyone, i need help setting the sound on my ubuntu 9.04. hereis my lspci http://pastebin.com/m7e06aa64
[23:30] <datz> I want to be able to access my desktop from the internet
[23:30] <Jp82191> new2ubuntu: is it working now?
[23:30] <datz> jp^
[23:30] <new2ubutnu> jp - do you always use the same Hanlde?
[23:30] <datz> Jp82191: ^
[23:30] <Jp82191> new2ubuntu: yes
[23:30] <new2ubutnu> yep I'm online on the desktop
[23:30] <solifugus> I got a new Lexmark printer... How can I install a driver for it?  It comes with a linux driver but I don't know how to uncompress a Imacgtar.z file....
[23:30] <crlsgms> iv got audacious, the sound keeps running, but even turning the volume up nothing goes
[23:30] <chriswaterguy> datz: that seems odd - my friend didn't have to add anything in Vista (she said - maybe she forgot). She's away now anyway, and I find connection details on the Vista machine.
[23:30] <vdierks> ping
[23:30] <Jp82191> datz: have you set up remote desktop before?
[23:30] <new2ubutnu> good deal - I'll be back in a while lol gotta go get the pizza and wings for the football game tonight
[23:30] <_cb> I am going to do a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10. I created a new parttion and moved the data from my Home partition to the new partition.  When I restarted Ubuntu it tells me I have no rights to the new partition. How do I grant me rights to the new partition?
[23:30] <chriswaterguy> datz: I mean I *can't* find connection details...
[23:30] <datz> Jp82191: On windows, and ubuntu before
[23:31] <mOOey> solifugus: do you plan on re-inking your cartridges or getting them refilled at the pharmacy?
[23:31] <Jp82191> datz: ok windows remote desktop is different than ubuntu's you know that right?
[23:31] <Chaz> How can I download the source code for packages? In software sources I have "Source Code" checked.
[23:31] <edo_> .org
[23:32] <datz> Jp82191: I was just going to try to use the built in remote desktop
[23:32] <solifugus> m00ey, probably the company.. but in any case that's not my concern right now.. I want to get the printer working
[23:32] <jellow> Eraldo: Damn got to go , Most of the proxies you get on google are dead , Try a VPN or keep looking
[23:32] <kinja-sheep> Chaz: "sudo apt-get source <xyzPackage>"
[23:32] <mOOey> you can't reuse lexmark carts - that's why I asked - before you use it and can't take it back ;-)
[23:32] <Eraldo> jellow: okay... thank you!
[23:32] <sladermen> Hello guys im running ubuntu 9.10 and when i installed it I chose to encrypt my home directory. However I now wish to disable the encryption. How can I do this? thanks
[23:32] <Jp82191> datz: remote desktop as far as i can see in ubuntu only works with computers on YOUR NETWORK
[23:32] <Chaz> kinja-sheep: What is the point of the "Source Code" check box under Administration>Software Sources?
[23:33] <solifugus> Does ubuntu have a standard way of installing printer drivers?
[23:33] <chriswaterguy> bastid_raZor: thanks. how do I get the modem to send the username/password? I've already tried both options under Wired (DSL connection 1 & Auto eth0
[23:33] <datz> chriswaterguy: do you have the username / password for the dsl connection?
[23:33] <jellow> Eraldo: Sorry could not help , good luck
[23:33] <chriswaterguy> datz: no. at a friend's house, they're at work (and I'd be surprised if they new)
[23:33] <datz> Jp82191: not according to this: http://www.howtoforge.com/configure-remote-access-to-your-ubuntu-desktop
[23:33] <phufford> In my sugar activity journal entries are created with specific metadata. I need my activity to edit the metadata for these journal entries after the datastore object has been destroyed, like after I close my activity and open it again. Is this possible? And if  it is possible how can I do it?
[23:33] <mkanyicy> hi everyone
[23:33] <kinja-sheep> Chaz: For developers, perhaps? Most users should only need binaries.  Source codes are useful if people are configuring to include / exclude certain patches.
[23:34] <sladermen> Hello guys im running ubuntu 9.10 and when i installed it I chose to encrypt my home directory. However I now wish to disable the encryption. How can I do this? thanks
[23:34] <datz> Jp82191: I've opened port 5900
[23:34] <datz> forwarded*
[23:34] <Chaz> kinja-sheep: I have it checked, I was assuming that the source code would be downloaded to my system as well when I install packages yet I do not see it anywhere.
[23:34] <Jp82191> ok
[23:34] <datz> Jp82191: but says only able to connect locally
[23:34] <datz> Jp82191: let me try to connect with my IP add
[23:34] <Jp82191> hold on im looking up that webpage now
[23:35] <kinja-sheep> !source | Chaz
[23:35] <Jp82191> 1 Preliminary Note: I have tested this on an Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) desktop.
[23:35] <datz> Jp82191: ok, now it lists my IP address
[23:35] <Jp82191> did you see that datz?
[23:35] <datz> so it should work  (down at the bottom)
[23:36] <Jp82191> I do not issue any guarantee that this will work for you!
[23:36] <Chaz> kinja-sheep: I know I can get it alternative ways, just wasn't sure what that was used for. Thanks anyway.
[23:36] <kinja-sheep> Chaz: I have mine toggled off since I have no need for sources.
[23:36] <Chaz> kinja-sheep: The point is I have it checked but I don't see the sources anywhere.
[23:36] <datz> Jp82191: I wouldn't expect you to. I don't know how I would hold you to that anyway. :)
[23:36] <Jp82191> ok
[23:36] <kinja-sheep> Chaz: Gotcha. Now you know. :)
[23:36] <datz> Jp82191: now I just need to find the remote viewer..
[23:36] <sladermen> Can anyone please help me out?
[23:36] <datz> Jp82191: do you know where that is?
[23:37] <Jp82191> go to the synaptics package manager and search for it there
[23:37] <datz> Jp82191: oops, it's in Applications->Internet
[23:37] <Jp82191> ok
[23:38] <datz> Jp82191: I think the setup has a poor interface...
[23:38] <sladermen> Hello guys im running ubuntu 9.10 and when i installed it I chose to encrypt my home directory. However I now wish to disable the encryption. How can I do this? thanks

[23:40] <airtonix> sladermen, (i dont have an encrypted home folder ) but i assume : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory#How to Remove an Encrypted Private Directory Setup is what you want

[23:41] <sladermen> airtonix, but i chose to encrypt my entire home directory with the karmic (9.10) installation cd..
[23:41] <Jp82191> user123: go to this link and they have a video or pictured instructions. http://a2b-net.com/software/hmlmeas
[23:41] <sn[a]ke> is there a python server?
[23:41] <airtonix> sladermen, yes ?
[23:42] <airtonix> sladermen, you are confused because it mentions intrepid ibex at the top of the page ?
[23:42] <sladermen> airtonix, so I dont know how Im going to unencrypt all of it while im logged in

[23:44] <EphriamGrey> I just finished putting togther a new box - however, I left my keyboard, cd drive, linux boot flashdrive at home. I have my intel macbook w/ Mac OS X, a monitor, usb mouse, blank usb flash drive. What's the easiest solution to get ubuntu on my box? Also, does, Ubuntu have kickstart, or was that just a red hat thing?

[23:47] <ja660k> i dont think so
[23:47] <ja660k> i can play other video formats?

[23:47] <ja660k> okay
[23:47] <bmatt> anyone with an ipod touch/iphone?
[23:47] <daftykins> sladermen: i've just been googling around for you and can't come up with anything useful at all - it's a bit shocking how there's no obvious way around this. i think you'll need to backup your data, format the /home partition if it's on its' own, then recreate your home folder / reinstall the OS if it's one partition
[23:48] <trism> ja660k: should just need to install ubuntu-restricted-extras for m4v
[23:48] <chriswaterguy> bastid_raZor & datz: I think the "DSL connection 1" was a false lead. when I click "edit connections" it said that it last connected 5 months ago, so I guess it's old and irrelevant. I deleted it. Auto eth0 still auto-connects, but I can't connect via browser or Skype.
[23:48] <sladermen> daftykins, thanks. yeah this really sucks. you'd think there would be a simple "disable home encryption" option somewhere in the system settings if they offer the home encryption in the installation wizard sigh
[23:49] <ja660k> how can i do that via cmd?
[23:49] <daftykins> sladermen: absolutely
[23:49] <trism> ja660k: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras

[23:58] <Glowball> Just wondering: the flash plug-in in the repositories, is it still the 32 bit version with a compatibility layer, or did Adobe actually bring out a stable 64 bit plug-in for Flash 10 (I remember to have read the 64 bit support in Flash 10 was only some testing around, with a stable release in Flash 11)?
[23:58] <EphriamGrey> I just finished putting togther a new box - however, I left my keyboard, cd drive, linux boot flashdrive at home. I have my intel macbook w/ Mac OS X, a monitor, usb mouse, blank usb flash drive. What's the easiest solution to get ubuntu on my box? Also, does, Ubuntu have kickstart, or was that just a red hat thing?
[23:59] <Jp82191> yeah matt go to that channel
[23:59] <kinja-sheep> Glowball: The one in the repo is 32bit with nsdiswrapper. There are native 64bit and it have been in alpha for long time. It worked great for many 64-bit users like myself.
[23:59] <Jp82191> maybe you will get a better response than what i was prepared to give you
