[09:52] <Gordon_Gekko> Hello can anyone check if my partitioning now is the same with the options I choose in the installation? Here is a link s http://pastebin.com/0pN9VubF . What I chose in the installation was the following. 3GB Swap, 17GB /ext4 for the system install and 300GB /home ext4 for my data files. Do you see the same in the list?
[09:52] <Type-O> Daniel-, you can fdisk it and add it to fstab
[09:52] <Daniel-> how?
[09:52] <lucio> Daniel-: maybe you'll find info about the drives that were discovered at boot time with dmes
[09:52] <Daniel-> lucio: : i hot added the drive, i have not rebooted the machine
[09:53] <Daniel-> so there is no info about it in dmesg
[09:53] <Gryllida> drive35, how can I help you?
[09:53] <Type-O> !fstab|Daniel-
[09:53] <jekor`> Exavion: Sorry, didn't see your original question. I asked him that question too and haven't gotten a response yet. Thought it might have been a well-known issue with the GRUB2 upgrade or something.
[09:53] <robertzaccour> how do i make the window borders bigger?
[09:53] <lucio> Daniel-: dmesg|grep sd
[09:53] <Type-O> !fdisk|Daniel-
[09:54] <ndlovu> mtx_init, in 10.04, you can click on the sound icon in the notification taskbar, select sound preferences... > output tab > select device ... if that's what you mean
[09:55] <mtx_init> ndlovu: no, I mean manually change the name of what it is looking for.
[09:55] <AdamBaylin> Hello Guys.

[09:58] <pepee> AdamBaylin, in the console: man man
[09:58] <theadmin> Daniel-: Check the link again, sorry I didn't upload it right last time
[09:58] <pepee> heh
[09:58] <coolstacy> sunta: but its for KDE,i hope i am right
[09:59] <Enissay> Hi all, nautilus wont start, and when i try to launch it from terminal, i get this error: http://pastebin.com/wrP79N8n... please help to fix it :(
[09:59] <Tobias92> I can't get my network card to detect wifi networks. It's a realtek 8187se, and ndiswrapper does not give me anything either. Could anyone point me in the right direction?
[09:59] <sunta> coolstacy, give the command a try
[09:59] <Bluh> Would I get errors if it didn't burn or download right?
[09:59] <AdamBaylin> what console?
[09:59] <sunta> AdamBaylin, console = terminal
[10:00] <AdamBaylin> and..
[10:00] <AdamBaylin> what can i do with it.
[10:00] <coolstacy> sunta: right now i am installing stellarium on my desktop,once done i will try and reply u.
[10:00] <pepee> AdamBaylin, terminal, whatever you call it
[10:00] <AdamBaylin> i know that..
[10:00] <AdamBaylin> but how can terminal be a help to me.
[10:01] <AdamBaylin> i want to learn how to use ubuntu and stuff.
[10:01] <sunta> "man man" is not really an ebook for newcomers
[10:01] <Timon3> Hi
[10:01] <pepee> Tobias92, I think you don't need ndiswraper in lucid for that wifi device
[10:01] <pepee> AdamBaylin, you asked:
 i just want to know does any of you guys know a ebook about ubuntu and stuff.
[10:01] <Timon3> Can someone help me to send files from a ubuntu 9.04 computer to a windows vista computer, using LAN?
[10:01] <sunta> AdamBaylin, check http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/index_main.html
[10:02] <pepee> well, that's what I can tell you: use the 'man' command
[10:02] <AdamBaylin> thanks.
[10:02] <Type-O> AdamBaylin, the best ebook for ubuntu is find something you wish to do then google it
[10:02] <pepee> Timon3, you mean to access to shared folders?
[10:02] <Type-O> see if it's possible :)
[10:03] <f01kert> Type-O: good luck with that approach... :)
[10:03] <bullgard> cfdisk shows 2 partition names: »sdb1p1« and »sdb2p5«. '~$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb' shows only one partition: '/dev/sdb1              16       14805     3911744    b  W95 FAT32'. Who can explain this contradiction?
[10:03] <AdamBaylin> I hate google lol.
[10:03] <Type-O> !manual|AdamBaylin
[10:03] <geekphreak> howdy all
[10:03] <Tobias92> pepee, yeah, it is detected out of the box, but it does not detect any wifi networks by itself
[10:04] <geekphreak> i am trying to network ubuntu / xp , i can see the machine from both end, from within xp i can access the linux share, but from linux to xp i cannot
[10:04] <pepee> Timon3, forget it... you can install a ftp server, or samba, or whatever
[10:04] <geekphreak> anyone got any ideas?
[10:04] <Bluh> How big is the CD download?
[10:04] <Type-O> geekbuntu, passworded?
[10:05] <pepee> Timon3, if you don't want to to that, you can enable shared folders on vista, and enable write permissions
[10:05] <Type-O> erm
[10:05] <geekphreak> Type-O: the account is password protected on xp yes
[10:05] <pepee> Tobias92, are you sure the problem is the card?
[10:05] <Type-O> geekphreak, passworded?
[10:05] <geekphreak> on both infact xp and linux
[10:05] <Type-O> geekbuntu, username = WORKGROUP pass- WORKGROUP work?
[10:05] <Gordon_Gekko> Hello can anyone check if my partitioning now is the same with the options I choose in the installation? Here is a link s http://pastebin.com/0pN9VubF . What I chose in the installation was the following. 3GB Swap, 17GB /ext4 for the system install and 300GB /home ext4 for my data files. Do you see the same in the list?
[10:06] <pepee> geekbuntu, read what I told to Tobias92
[10:06] <Tobias92> pepee, what else could it be? I tried booting into karmic, no luck there either
[10:06] <geekphreak> umm no i did nto try that ,
[10:06] <coolstacy> AdamBaylin:http://www.freebookspot.in/Default.aspx ( free ebooks very useful for ubuntu newbies)
[10:06] <geekphreak> i am using samba so i had added samba users
[10:06] <Tobias92> it's the strangest thing though, yesterday it did work briefly
[10:06] <pepee> geekbuntu, forget it...
[10:06] <indus> CAN swap be resized wit h gparted
[10:06] <indus> CAN swap be resized wit h gparted
[10:06] <Timon3> pepee; But i need to send something from ubuntu to vista, not otherwise
[10:07] <geekphreak> Type-O: i can see the xp machine from with nix, but i get errored out
[10:08] <pepee> Timon3, you need to install a server in the Vista box, or enable write access in the shared folders
[10:08] <geekphreak> Type-O: message >> failed to retrive server shared list
[10:09] <sdfasd> =)
[10:09] <coolstacy> sunta: i am on the way to download amarok,i hope it installs and work.
[10:09] <sabgenton> when making a bug report do I want to untick private ?
[10:09] <sunta> coolstacy, it will, no dount
[10:09] <pepee> Tobias92, the wifi manager program?
[10:09] <sunta> b
[10:09] <Timon3> pepee; i have enabled it
[10:09] <Type-O> geekphreak, k... my entire network atm are *nix machines atm, so I can't test
[10:09] <Timon3> So how can i now send the files?
[10:09] <sdfasd>  =)
[10:10] <geekphreak> Type-O: ok np thank you
[10:10] <sdfasd>  =)
[10:10] <pepee> Tobias92, try doing this in the console: sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[10:10] <Tobias92> pepee, the wifi itself worked for an hour or so after much fiddling
[10:10] <Tobias92> pepee, last time I tried that it turned up nothing. Sec - rebooting
[10:10] <sdfasd> Tobias92,
[10:10] <pepee> Timon3, in kubuntu you can use konqueror with smb:// in the address bar
[10:11] <ActionParsnip> Yo yo yo
[10:11] <theadmin> When a device, e.g. usb-stick or a CD is attached, Nautilus automatically opens a window with it. How can I stop this weird behaiviour?
[10:11] <pepee> Timon3, try that in nautilus
[10:12] <pepee> brb
[10:12] <crdlb> theadmin: edit > preferences > media > browse media when inserted
[10:12] <red2kic> theadmin: nautilus ~/ --> Edit --> Preferences --> [Media] tab.
[10:13] <mtx_init> does anybody know how to change the name of the device the gnome sound preference slider references?
[10:13] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ubuntu-63/how-can-i-make-nautilus-not-popup-when-i-insert-usb-stick-583081/
[10:13] <geekphreak> anyone else?
[10:13] <theadmin> red2kic, crdlb, ActionParsnip: Thanks.
[10:13] <Timon3> pepee; How can i open the nautilus?
[10:13] <red2kic> mtx_init: Name of the device?  Not important. Get used to it?
[10:14] <sunta> need helpt with apache2.2 to authenticat users against simple ldap_v3. any goog examples? Im upgrading from apache1.3. I dont get why I need WebAuthLdapTktCache. I only want simple authentication and dont use kerberos
[10:14] <ActionParsnip> geekphreak: wassup? I missed you Q
[10:14] <mtx_init> red2kic: If you cant answer the question, then why bother.
[10:15] <geekphreak> ActionParsnip: i am trying to network xp and ubuntu, i can access nix shares from xp, but not the other way round
[10:15] <geekphreak> i can see from both ends
[10:15] <red2kic> mtx_init: You're being silly. Is all.
[10:15] <Bluh> I'm having some issues booting, I keep getting "isolinux: Disk error 80, AX = 4200, drive 9f".
[10:15] <ActionParsnip> geekphreak: if you type the full address of the share in the nautilus address bar does it work?
[10:15] <geekphreak> ActionParsnip: let me try it
[10:16] <mtx_init> red2kic: How so?  you're the one spamming the channel with garbage which has no use.
[10:16] <pepee> Timon3, ? use whatever file manager you have
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> Bluh: boot to livecd and fsck the partition. You may also want to grab the ultimate boot cd and use the manufacturers tools to check it
[10:16] <Cyber_Akuma> So now that ATI dosen't support either my laptop's ot desktop's card anymore in the xorg or fsck or whatever it is that ubuntu 10.04 uses (im new to ubuntu) does that mean pretty much all hope is lost or is there anything that can be done to make them work on the newer distros?
[10:16] <sunta> geekphreak, try in nautilus s.th. like smb://ip-adress/share
[10:16] <red2kic> mtx_init: I apologized. You're not being silly.  Better?
[10:16] <Cyber_Akuma> Laptop is a Radeon X1200 and desktop is a RAdeon 9600pro
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> geekphreak: you will need an account with a password to connect
[10:17] <Timon3> pepee; doesn't work
[10:17] <mtx_init> red2kic: you still seem to offer nothing.
[10:17] <ActionParsnip> red2kic: be civil dude
[10:17] <Frantique> hi all
[10:18] <phlak_user> !hi| Frantique
[10:18] <geekphreak> ActionParsnip: i di create an account
[10:18] <ActionParsnip> geekphreak: if its windows7 I think it implements samba slightly differently
[10:18] <sunta> Cyber_Akuma, sudo apt-get install fglrx
[10:18] <pepee> Timon3, no idea...
[10:18] <Timon3> pepee; he says: "couldn't show 'smb:///'. Warning: couldn't get the list of shared maps from the server. Choose another viewmethod and try again"
[10:19] <Tobias92> pepee, it got worse, I rmmod'ed ndiswrapper and now networkmanager does not even see the card :(
[10:19] <pepee> tobias, in the console: sud iwconfig
[10:19] <pepee> sudo
[10:19] <pepee> Tobias92, ^^
[10:20] <ActionParsnip> Timon3: you need to put a server name after the slashes. Then a slash after, then the server name
[10:20] <Tobias92> pepee: lo and eth0, both no wireless extensions
[10:20] <ActionParsnip> Not servername, share name
[10:20] <s3r3n1t7> I"m having trouble with Ubuntu Cloud. I've got the software and setup running, but when I search for images in the store it waits for some time before giving me an error (7) Could not connect to host.
[10:20] <pepee> Timon3, well, it's working. you have to put the IP of the vista box
[10:20] <ActionParsnip> Timon3: e.g. smb://server/sharename
[10:20] <bullgard> cfdisk shows 2 partition names: »sdb1p1« and »sdb2p5«. '~$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb' shows only one partition: '/dev/sdb1              16       14805     3911744    b  W95 FAT32'. Who can explain this contradiction?
[10:20] <phlak_user> s3r3n1t7: are you connected to the Internet?
[10:20] <pepee> tobias, sudo modprobe rtl8187
[10:20] <s3r3n1t7> phlak_user: yes
[10:21] <ActionParsnip> geekphreak: is that the format you used earlier ^
[10:21] <hayfever> Hi. Ehm, I've been trying to start a program through wine that is being refused. Called a "non executable" so I right clicked and allowed it, but still get the same error message. How should I go about solving this?
[10:21] <sunta> auth_ldap.so from apache1.3 is replaced with what on apache2.2 ?
[10:21] <s3r3n1t7> phlak_user: well to be more precise, Yes I am, I"m having second thoughts about the server now ... Let me check that
[10:21] <ActionParsnip> geekphreak: smb://servername/sharename
[10:21] <Tobias92> pepee, that did something - logging out and in now
[10:21] <pepee> bullgard, what does »sdb1p1« means?
[10:21] <sebsebseb> Hi
[10:21] <phlak_user> !hi| sebsebseb
[10:22] <red2kic> hayfever: Right-click on the .exe --> "Properties" under Permissions tab. Toggle on "Execute"
[10:22] <pepee> Tobias92,  sudo modprobe rtl8187
[10:22] <ActionParsnip> Yo yo yo sebsebseb
[10:22] <s3r3n1t7> phlak_user: Yes, I've confirmed that the server has a proper connection to the internet.
[10:22] <sebsebseb> phlak_user: I don't like that factoid much, but yeah hi
[10:22] <phlak_user> sebsebseb: lol
[10:22] <bullgard> pepee: It means an SCSCI device, second, 1st partition partition 1.
[10:22] <Daniel-> ok we have created a new swap partition via gparted live CD but how do we mount it?
[10:22] <Daniel-> and how do we add it to fstab?
[10:22] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: Yo
[10:22] <pepee> bullgard, oh, well, I have no idea...
[10:23] <elnur> My maximum sound is too low. Any help?
[10:23] <ActionParsnip> !fstab | Daniel-
[10:23] <red2kic> hayfever: Oh you did. Hmm. wine file.exe -- See what kind of errors you have been getting. Also, there are !appdb (to see if the program can be run in wine)
[10:23] <bullgard> pepee: :-)
[10:23] <Daniel-> yes
[10:23] <Tobias92> pepee, that gives me some output about how all config files should have conf and will be deprecated (relevant?), but it does not give me wlan0 back
[10:23] <Daniel-> but how do we mount it?
[10:23] <ActionParsnip> elnur: run: alsamixer ,and crank the sliders
[10:23] <hayfever> red2kic, yes I've checked it. It's "suposed" to work.
[10:23] <sunta> Daniel-, swapon /dev/yourpartition
[10:23] <ActionParsnip> Daniel-: if it's in fstab: sudo mount -a
[10:23] <pepee> Tobias92,  again: sudo iwconfig
[10:24] <Tobias92> pepee, lo and eth0, but no wlan0
[10:24] <ActionParsnip> Tobias92: the file in /etc/modprobe.d you made must end in .conf
[10:24] <pepee> hmm
[10:24] <jtheuer> hi, need some help, system does not boot because /dev/pts is missing - dev is a tmpfs filesystem, so how can I create the mountpoint before booting?
[10:24] <red2kic> hayfever: Join #winehq for application help. They have more experiences on wine alone.
[10:24] <pepee> Tobias92, dmesg | tail
[10:24] <ActionParsnip> Tobias92: if it doesn't then rename it
[10:24] <pepee> Tobias92, dmesg | tail | pastebinit
[10:25] <geekphreak> got it working, thanks guys :)
[10:25] <hayfever> red2kic, ok, but the problem is with ubuntu complaining about the file not being safe.
[10:25] <pepee> you need to install pastebinit...
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> geekphreak: yay. Now if you go up a level you can drag the folder to the left panel and it will appear in the places menu
[10:25] <geekphreak> ActionParsnip and sunta thank you
[10:26] <geekphreak> ActionParsnip: yup and i can get all my files there
[10:26] <phawx> i just uninstalled compiz and now i have no max/min window buttons on anything.
[10:26] <coolstacy> sunta:its taking lot of time to download.
[10:26] <phawx> how can i fix this
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> geekphreak: yeah the whole network thing never works here so I use manual method like that.  I don't know what I can say to that. Looks like a bug if you already have enabled it as executeable.
[10:26] <pepee> sorry, didn't see you already asked...
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> Phawx: the thing you are missing is the window decorator
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> phawx: i'd ask in #compiz
[10:27] <pepee> phawx, sorry, didn't see you already asked...
[10:27] <coolstacy> sunta : iam using mozilla.
[10:27] <Gryllida> ok so how do I change default webpage background in links2?
[10:27] <Tobias92> ActionParsnip, those were old files created by ndiswrapper. I deleted them now
[10:27] <sunta> coolstacy, just kiddin;) it wil work anyway when your download is finished
[10:27] <hayfever> red2kic, I was afraid of that. But I'll keep looking by myself.
[10:28] <pepee> Tobias92, does eth0 have wireless extensions?
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> Tobias92: as long as they all end in .conf it will be fine :)
[10:28] <hayfever> red2kic, thank you for your help though.
[10:28] <geekphreak> pepee: dont think so
[10:28] <Tobias92> pepee, I don't know, but there used to be a wlan0 up there
[10:28] <pepee> Tobias92, dmesg | tail -40 | pastebinit
[10:28] <red2kic> hayfever: No problem. I'd ask in #winehq and see what they have to say about it.
[10:28] <geekphreak> pepee: see anything in iwconfig
[10:28] <Gryllida> sebsebseb hello...

[10:34] <geekphreak> i said thanks guys
[10:34] <Speakers> how do I force close a program that won't close?
[10:34] <Speakers> in ubuntu
[10:34] <pepee> ah
[10:34] <sebsebseb> Speakers: xkill
[10:34] <sebsebseb> Speakers: in the terminal, then click on it
[10:34] <sunta> Speakers, kill -9 PID
[10:34] <sunta> Speakers, killall -9 programname
[10:34] <pepee> killall -9 whatever
[10:34] <ytaews> I think my HDD has failed - I can boot ubuntu and it works for a little while but it freezes up eventually and the HDD light remains on. SMART tells me I have a few bad sectors, the benchmark doesn't work because it fails less than halfway through. Is there anything I can do to see what the problem is until I buy a new drive on Friday?
[10:34] <sebsebseb> Speakers: my way is the easiest
[10:34] <pepee> but yes, xkill is very useful
[10:35] <sebsebseb> Speakers: with the others you have to know the number of the process
[10:35] <indus> Speakers, always add the force kill applet to panel, its very useful
[10:35] <Speakers> wprked
[10:35] <pepee> Tobias92, are you there?
[10:35] <Speakers> it was an alarm problem
[10:35] <sebsebseb> Speakers: or you could like,  killlall firefox for example, but for your program you must have the exact name of the proccess or killlall won't work
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> ytaews: grab the ultimate boot cd and check the drive using the manufacturers tool
[10:35] <Speakers> Kalarm wouldn't go away
[10:35] <Tobias92> pepee, yes, did I miss something?
[10:35] <pepee> Tobias92, sorry... tail -50 /var/log/syslog | pastebinit
[10:35] <Speakers> xkill guys
[10:35] <Speakers> tanks guys
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> ytaews: the ubcd has most of the main drive manufacturers tools on there
[10:35] <Tobias92> pepee, rebooting, in a tick
[10:36] <oliver_> any fun game under ubuntu?
[10:36] <ActionParsnip> ytaews: as well as a tonne of other awesome tools :)
[10:36] <pepee> Tobias92, you dont need to
[10:36] <sebsebseb> oliver_: loads
[10:36] <hackemat1> hello, since I upgraded lucid i cant print, i think my user is in printers group but i get the message: can't create temporary file
[10:36] <sebsebseb> oliver_: depending on what your in to
[10:36] <hackemat1> in any of the printers i install (via ip)
[10:36] <sebsebseb> !games | oliver_
[10:36] <ActionParsnip> oliver_: urban terror, penumbra, doom3, return to castle wolfenstein
[10:36] <oliver_> I like mmorpg games
[10:36] <Tobias92> pepee, I did, apparently. modprobe r8192_pci && reboot got wlan0 back!
[10:36] <geekphreak> cya guys :)
[10:37] <oliver_> thank u
[10:37] <pepee> Tobias92, oh, strange...
[10:37]  * kostas_thess__ ama deisssssssss ta paidiaaaaaaaaaaaaa pes tous mono ena geiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa apo kapoionnnnnnnnnn pou itannnnnnnn monos....
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> oliver_: world of warcraft runs under wine
[10:37] <Tobias92> pepee, still no networks detected though :(
[10:37] <hackemat1> some clue to my issue? i'm stuck at this point
[10:37] <ytaews> ActionParsnip: Cheers, it looks alright, but I can only work properly from a live CD right now. I only have one CD drive so how would I create an ultimate boot cd?
[10:37] <sebsebseb> oliver_: no not so good for those, as far as I know, but you can Wine a load of Windows games
[10:37] <pepee> Tobias92, try installing wicd
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> oliver_: also check: http://www.playdeb.net
[10:38] <pepee> Tobias92, networkManager may interfere with wicd...
[10:38] <elnur> ActionParsnip, already did that. no result
[10:38] <ActionParsnip> ytaews: not sure how cd burning works in live environment. May take another pc if its not possible
[10:38] <Tobias92> pepee, are you sure that can help when iwlist scanning gives no networks, too?
[10:38] <oliver_> thank you , i will to playdeb.net
[10:38] <ytaews> ActionParsnip: Good point, I didn't think of that. I'll go burn it on my brother's laptop, cheers.
[10:39] <pepee> Tobias92, if iwlist doesn't lisst networks, then you are right
[10:39] <pepee> is a problem with the card/drivers...
[10:39] <Tobias92> pepee, on a brand new laptop, too :(
[10:39] <hackemat1> well, i found it, thanks
[10:39] <Tobias92> which I bought beause it came with ubuntu, of all reasons :)
[10:39] <pepee> tobias, less /var/log/syslog, then press F (uppercase)
[10:39] <pepee> try searching for som strange message
[10:40] <coolstacy> sunta: its just 50% now ,should i wait or kill.
[10:40] <pepee> Tobias92, ^^
[10:41] <pepee> Tobias92, press ctrl+c if you wanna "navigate" and q for quitting
[10:41] <sunta> coolstacy, wait
[10:41] <sunta> coolstacy, you want it. you wait it
[10:41] <coolstacy> sunta:ok!
[10:41] <abhinav_singh> hey can any one tell me any good book to learn Ubuntu  from starting level to advanced level
[10:42] <Tobias92> pepee, ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready. Is that relevant?
[10:42] <sunta> abhinav_singh, what language?
[10:42] <sebsebseb> !manual | abhinav_singh
[10:42] <abhinav_singh> English
[10:42] <sebsebseb> abhinav_singh: Ubuntu Pocket Guide
[10:42] <pepee> Tobias92, yeah, try 'sudo iwlist wlan0 scan' a couple times again
[10:42]  * om26er thinks there is no need for a book
[10:43] <ActionParsnip> abhinav_singh: just use the OS. It will teach you a lot more than any document or book can show you
[10:43]  * pepee learned "the hard way"...
[10:43] <abhinav_singh> sebsebseb: is is available in pdf format?
[10:43] <ActionParsnip> om26er: +1 dude
[10:43] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: both are
[10:43] <sebsebseb> abhinav_singh: both are
[10:44] <sebsebseb> om26er: there is for some people, since they won't just well learn, by using the software
[10:44] <Tobias92> pepee, if you suspect that triggers the message, apparently it does not
[10:44] <abhinav_singh> I am new to linux...i know most of the commands....i want to learn more commands from starting level to advanced level
[10:44] <sebsebseb> !commands | abhinav_singh
[10:44] <ActionParsnip> abhinav_singh: its like these admins who do a lot of courses but are rubbish when it comes to real life systems. Books only show you so much. Using the system will teach you more and will teach you better
[10:44] <coolstacy> sunta: download complete,but it is just showing a blue screen with amarok logo.
[10:44] <pepee> Tobias92, you can see more of those messages?
[10:45] <pepee> Tobias92, press F again
[10:45] <Tobias92> pepee, none of those on the bottom of the log
[10:45] <sunta> coolstacy, lemme install it quick.
[10:45] <sunta> coolstacy, should display more then its logo
[10:46] <coolstacy> sunta: i am unable to rid of the screen.
[10:46] <pepee> Tobias92, I've never seen somthing like this before...
[10:46] <sunta> coolstacy open  console and killall -9 amarok
[10:47] <pepee> the module isn't something new, so it must be working fine
[10:47] <EmilioTucci> Hi all
[10:47] <EmilioTucci> anybody know where the heck are the background pictures stored? I checked all the hidden folders under my /home directory but no luck!
[10:47] <EmilioTucci> thanks
[10:47] <remanifest> /usr/share/backgrounds
[10:47] <Tobias92> pepee, on the forums somebody complained that it broke down when upgrading to lucid from karmic. So I tried booting into karmic, but no luck there either
[10:48] <pepee> Tobias92, install this packages and reboot: linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.32-23-generic
[10:48] <EmilioTucci> remanifest, /usr? weird location
[10:48] <sunta> coolstacy, are you sure its only displaying the logo? upon 1st start I get the logo and a configure screen
[10:48] <sunta> KWallet  its called
[10:48] <coolstacy> sunta: ya ,the screen went off,now i have got screen KDE wallet service.
[10:48] <EmilioTucci> remanifest, ok thanks, I was thinking to be more logical under the home user directory, but anyways
[10:49] <remanifest> EmilioTucci: Not really... been that way since I remember (10 years or so)... but you can also store your own backgrounds in ~/ if you like
[10:49] <Tobias92> pepee, on it now
[10:49] <pepee> k
[10:49] <sunta> coolstacy, go through that wallet thing
[10:49] <EmilioTucci> remanifest, this is the first time I try UBuntu..
[10:49] <coolstacy> sunta : it has 2 opt basic setup and advance, should i continue.
[10:50] <sunta> coolstacy, i dont know about kwallet. i chose advanced and ->ok->ok->ok
[10:50] <ActionParsnip> EmilioTucci: if you are changing your wallpaper you can click the add button and use one from anywhere you like. You don't need to put the image(s) in the backgrounds folder by any means
[10:50] <pepee> just disable kwallet...
[10:50] <remanifest> EmilioTucci: Ahh ok, /usr/share is just a place where a lot of "common files" are stored.  They can be accessed by all user accounts.  Makes sense for when you want all users to have access to a file.
[10:50] <EmilioTucci> ActionParsnip, remanifest thanks guys
[10:51] <pepee> kwallet is annoying
[10:51] <remanifest> np bro
[10:51] <red2kic> EmilioTucci: nautilus-wallpaper is nice extension.
[10:51] <ActionParsnip> EmilioTucci: here to help :D
[10:51] <remanifest> Anyone here familiar with Evolution?  I'm trying to get it to respect Chromium as the browser
[10:51] <ActionParsnip> red2kic: assuming nautilus is used...
[10:51] <red2kic> ActionParsnip: Yes. And it's his first time using Ubuntu. :P
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> remanifest: is it set as the default browser in preferences of the OS
[10:52] <Tobias92> pepee, done
[10:52] <coolstacy> sunta: i selected basic opt and now it say "yes,i wish to use KDE wallet to store my personal information" should i go with this or back and select advance setup.
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> red2kic: might be using kubuntu or xubuntu :P
[10:52] <sunta> coolstacy, stay with that
[10:52] <remanifest> ActionParsnip: As far as I know - I'm using Lubuntu
[10:52] <sunta> coolstacy, its nothing evil, just KDE;)
[10:52] <pepee> Tobias92, did it work?
[10:52] <pepee> I just ended hating KDE
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> Reanifest: let me seach. Lubuntu is awesome :)
[10:53] <Tobias92> pepee, afraid not
[10:53] <sunta> pepee, just? im over it 10yrs
[10:53] <pepee> it's becoming annoying by itself
[10:53] <pepee> I don't like kwallet, I don't like dolphin, I don't like the way some things are managed
[10:53] <remanifest> ActionParsnip: Yeah, it's great - all the goodness of openbox plus a bunch of practical utils for functionality.  It's awesome on my netbook :)
[10:54] <pepee> some friends says is worst for kubuntu
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> remanifest: join the mailing list and you can hl
[10:54] <Smirnoff> Hello, how to install skype ?
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> Help shape it
[10:54] <pepee> Tobias92, well, no idea, sorry :(
[10:55] <sunta> Smirnoff, go to skype homepage. it will offer .deb-package for ubuntu
[10:55] <pepee> tobias, cat /var/log/syslog | pastebinit
[10:55] <Tobias92> pepee, thanks for your effort anyway. I'll try some more :)
[10:55] <pepee> Tobias92, ^^
[10:55] <pepee> Tobias92, you can compile those modules by yourself...
[10:55] <remanifest> ActionParsnip: Those days are about 8-10 years behind me nowadays... I contributed to Slackware back in the day, but now I'm really busy with school unfortunately
[10:55] <ActionParsnip> remanifest: could try: sudo ln -s /usr/bin/chromium-browser /usr/bin/firefox
[10:56] <sunta> Smirnoff, this might work too in a console: sudo apt-get install skype
[10:56] <ActionParsnip> remanifest: bit of a hack but should fly
[10:56] <pepee> it isn't easy... (at least for a noob user)
[10:56] <pepee> It wasn't for me, but it's funny to break your system and repair it LOL
[10:56] <unop> ActionParsnip, I would use the alternatives system to do this -- that way it is easy to revert and list alternatives.
[10:57] <pepee> you can't do that with windows
[10:57] <ActionParsnip> Unop: given but I'm not sure of the syntax and I know it'll work as all apps assume people use crappy firefox
[10:58] <coolstacy> sunta: no, its not working its not reading my songs.
[10:58] <alex87> man ubuntu is nice now
[10:58] <zulgaban> damn my ubuntu postfix mail server power supply unit blew up +.+ last night while i was sending mail out. email didn't get through...
[10:59] <sunta> coolstacy, ofcourse you need to add music to the amarok library. im sure you find your war
[10:59] <sunta> way
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> Alex87: linux as a whole generally is
[10:59] <indus> नमसते
[10:59] <Gordon_Gekko> hello! how do I check the paritions and the sizes of my system through the terminal?
[10:59] <indus> Gordon_Gekko, df
[11:00] <pepee> !in | indus
[11:00] <zulgaban> df -h
[11:00] <alex87> ActionParsnip, yeah, but you know how much of a pain it can be. skype and pulse audio just worked for me then!
[11:00] <coolstacy> sunta: what is this, be simple on this.
[11:00] <zulgaban> -h stands for human XD
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> Alex87: I don't use skype so couldn't comment there
[11:00] <indus> Gordon_Gekko, in terminal
[11:00] <remanifest> ActionParsnip: lol, that was a sneaky little trick, and it worked well.  Had to move firefox to firefox-browser before the symbolic link would take, but now it's working great.  Thanks!
[11:00] <indus> yes human
[11:00] <ztf> "VPN start failed"
[11:00] <koshari> Gordon_Gekko fdisk -l
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> remanifest: no worries dude :D
[11:00] <alex87> ActionParsnip, well you can imagine. just saying, ubuntu has gotten a lot of things to work very well
[11:00] <Gordon_Gekko> thank you all for your answers!
[11:01] <indus> DF -H AND DF -h show slightly different zulgaban
[11:01] <indus> pepee, that room is empty
[11:01] <indus> pepee, i prefer here
[11:02] <pepee> oh sorry
[11:02] <pepee> ok
[11:02] <coolstacy> sunta: when i click on update collection it does not do anything.
[11:02] <indus> pepee, you from india is it
[11:02] <Christopher> What is the easiest way for me to backup my important files in Ubuntu?  Mostly the ones in my home folder.
[11:02] <pepee> indus, nope
[11:02] <hotfloppy> one thing i dont like about 10.04 liveCD is there is no option to try, install or boot from 1st harddisk before the cd boot into live session.. got to wait for cd the to fully bot, choose try and restart from live session.. not a big deal, but its such a pain in the a$$ for me.. just my 2cents..
[11:02] <koshari> dfChristopher prolly a usb drive
[11:02] <koke_> hola buenas
[11:02] <indus> pepee, hmm how did you know then what i typed :)
[11:03] <remanifest> hotfloppy: Were you using Unetbootin?
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> Hotfloppy: press spacebar when the first boot screen shows (with the stick man)
[11:03] <pepee> I just guessed you are
[11:03] <pepee> gonna sleep, bye ppl
[11:03] <hotfloppy> remanifest: nope, just the usual liveCD..
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> Hotfloppy: its there, its just hiding
[11:04] <hotfloppy> ActionParsnip: you mean on the GUI menu ? or on POST ?
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> Hotfloppy: when you see the greyish screen with the keyboard/stickman at the bottom, press spaceba
[11:04] <hotfloppy> ActionParsnip: oic.. understood..
[11:04] <hotfloppy> ActionParsnip: its on the dot dot loading thing eh ?
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> hotfloppy: I think before that. It also allows you to check the cd for defectas
[11:05] <coolstacy> sunta: r u there.
[11:05] <sunta> coolstacy, see query window
[11:05] <MACscr> is there a wordpad like app for ubuntu? im looking for something with formating, so a bit better than gedit, but lighter than open office word processor
[11:06] <hotfloppy> ActionParsnip: and the menu like old version will be shown ?
[11:06] <jmgg> jjjjjj
[11:06] <ActionParsnip> hotfloppy: exactly :D
[11:06] <coolstacy> sunta; what may be the problem.
[11:07] <indus> cant believe there is no good gui backup tool in linux
[11:07] <vu1kan> MACscr you could just use wordpad with wine
[11:07] <ActionParsnip> Indus: why do you need a gui
[11:07] <MACscr> vu1kan: i dont think such a hackish method is needed
[11:07] <indus> i hate command line,
[11:07] <Gordon_Gekko> Thank you all for your help :)
[11:07] <indus> i like visual tools
[11:07] <jmgg> alguien me puede decir un programa de facturacion para ubuntu 10.4
[11:08] <Gordon_Gekko> bye
[11:08] <indus> bye
[11:08] <zcat[1]> I can't believe there's no good gui backup too either.
[11:08] <hotfloppy> ActionParsnip: how do you know about those spacebar thing ? where you get the info ?
[11:08] <zcat[1]> simple backup perhaps?
[11:08] <vu1kan> !es | jmgg
[11:08] <indus> Gordon_Gekko, is that nick from wall street movie
[11:08] <sunta> coolstacy, you need to add music to amarok. your question in 1st place was how to install amarok, i believe we did install successful
[11:08] <zcat[1]> !info simplebackup
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> Indus: there is massive power to be had in command line
[11:08] <indus> ActionParsnip, power can be misused :D
[11:08] <Gordon_Gekko> indus, yes it is... great movies!! can't wait to see the sequel
[11:08] <sunta> coolstacy, do this as well: sudo apt-get install libxine1-ffmpeg
[11:08] <zcat[1]> that's at least one very simple but powerful GUI backup tool
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> hotfloppy: saw it on a post in launchpad, so now I use it to tell folks how to check their install cds are ok if thet have install issues
[11:09] <zcat[1]> I know there are others
[11:09] <indus> Gordon_Gekko, is there a sequel ?
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> hotfloppy: also the image on the screen gives it away ;)
[11:09] <indus> zcat[1], is that a gui tool ?
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> !backup | indus
[11:10] <Gordon_Gekko> indus, yes it is coming out this year
[11:10] <indus> all i hear about is rsync all the time , thats command line
[11:10] <indus> Gordon_Gekko, ok off topic for here :)
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> Indus: just cron an rsync to a remote filesystem. The backup will be fine
[11:10] <zcat[1]> indus:  you haven't looked very hard. Open synaptic, search for 'backup'
[11:10] <indus> zcat[1], ok
[11:10] <Gordon_Gekko> indus, hehe I know!! thank you again!
[11:10] <Gordon_Gekko> bye :)
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> Indus: there's grsync which will give the command which you can put in a script, then use gnome-schedule to run that script
[11:11] <clarezoe> hi, I cannot connect to internet neither wired nor wireless, I don't know where to start, please help
[11:11] <red2kic> indus: GUI? "sbackup"
[11:11] <Bluh> How do you check the md5sum of a disk?
[11:11] <indus> sbackup hmm
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> Clarezoe: if you run: ping <IP_ADDRESS> ,do you get replys?
[11:11] <zcat[1]> If you're doing network backups you can still mount the remote filesystem and use simple backup..
[11:11] <indus> woohoo found it
[11:11] <indus> thanks
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | bluh
[11:12] <clarezoe> ActionParsnip, thanks. I got Network is unreachable
[11:12] <Bluh> Ty
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> Indus: I suggest you learn and use cli. It runs circles around gui nonesense
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> Clarezoe: ok are you using wired or wireless?
[11:12] <indus> ActionParsnip, i know , i know a few commands but iam not a sys admin
[11:12] <coolstacy> sunta: ya, know the song is playing but no sound.
[11:13] <clarezoe> ActionParsnip, I'm using wired, but seems my wireless is on but I cannot turn it off.
[11:13] <zcat[1]> ActionParsnip:  I suggest you learn what GUI tools are available in Ubuntu, most new users have a strange fear of the command line and will simply go back to what they're familiar with if you tell them they must use the CLI
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> Indus: so aren't many others but simple scripts and loops can make duplicated tasks happen while you webbrowse
[11:13] <sunta> coolstacy, you need to configure the sound device, though I cannot really help on this
[11:13] <indus> ActionParsnip, tell me some 5 cool scripts you use for everyday use
[11:14] <sunta> btw. I have solved auth_ldap on apache2.2 myselves
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> zcat[1]: I'm trying to educate as command line can give huge power. Don't treat users like scared sheep or they will never use it and realise what it can do
[11:14] <red2kic> indus: cronjob + email -- Notifying me the daily downloaded RSS feed for my torrent client. :)
[11:14] <xmu> hi
[11:15] <red2kic> indus: "define.sh asphalt" -- Display definitions in the terminal.
[11:15] <ActionParsnip> Indus: fullupdate is my most used. It runs update upgrade dist-upgrade and clean in one swoop
[11:15] <cyber_> hello all, testing irc setup, sorry!
[11:15] <red2kic> indus: "xsleep.sh" -- Force turn off the monitor into sleep mode instantly.
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> Indus: the other is backupfull which copies my fileserver to my firewire drive once a week (cron'd)
[11:16] <zcat[1]> I'v enever understood it, but I am constantly running into people who say "I tried Ubuntu but everything has to be done in the command line so I gave up" -- and they were trying to do simple things that simply did not have to be done in the command line at all.
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> indus: backupsys puts all the stuff from my system to my fileserver using rsync.
[11:16] <bullgard> cfdisk shows 2 partition names: »sdb1p1« and »sdb2p5«. '~$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb' shows only one partition: '/dev/sdb1              16       14805     3911744    b  W95 FAT32'. Who can explain this contradiction?
[11:16] <coolstacy> sunta: ya its lot of help from u ,thanks for that,but in amarok we have option to test sound and while testing it i can hear the piano sound, but not my songs,don't no why .well i will look after it,thanks for ur useful hepl.
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> indus: I've made a few to make playlists from folders
[11:17] <coolstacy> sunta:thanks.
[11:17] <red2kic> indus: "gasprices.sh" -- List all the gas prices in my local area so I go to the lowest price. :)
[11:17] <zcat[1]> .. but when they ask, experienced Linux users insist on doing everything from a terminal.
[11:17] <cyber_> CybeRebel
[11:17] <indus> red2kic, ;olol

[11:17] <ActionParsnip> indus: if you shirk away from scripts and command line you are missing out dude
[11:17] <red2kic> indus: The possibilities in CLI commands is vast! :)
[11:17] <indus> zcat[1], no issues, for every ActionParsnip there is one indus
[11:18] <indus> :D
[11:18] <indus> red2kic, you have different gas prices at diff outlets?
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> indus: I guess, makes the world go around
[11:18] <indus> red2kic, here its controlled
[11:18] <indus> ActionParsnip, true heh , i do use command line sometimes , back in ubuntu 6.06 had to use a lot of those
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> Indus: I used to have one called thumbnailme which made 48x48 images of images in a foklder using imagemagick
[11:19] <red2kic> indus: Yes. http://pastebin.com/3z8Uumnb
[11:19] <coolstacy> sunta:"i chose advanced and ->ok->ok->ok" u said this earlier and now u say u have not use KDE nor amarok.
[11:19] <zcat[1]> indus:  the command line is very powerful, but also you really can do just about anything from the GUI as well
[11:19] <sunta> coolstacy, just installed amarok so I can better assist
[11:20] <coolstacy> sunta: thanks.

[11:21] <zenmower> how long does it usually take to resize a partition
[11:21] <vu1kan> zenmower depends on the size of the drive
[11:21] <red2kic> zenmower: Depends on the size of the partition?
[11:21] <koshari> zenmower depends how bigf it, is, how full and your hardware
[11:21] <vu1kan> jinx!
[11:21] <isolat3dsh33p> Got this error while trying to update --> W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net lucid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY AA2BB78B7AE26941

[11:21] <zenmower> <3 hours to change a 80 gb
[11:21] <isolat3dsh33p> how to solve it?

[11:21] <erUSUL> !gpgerr > isolat3dsh33p
[11:21] <ActionParsnip> Hmm
[11:21] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: that's what I mean :)
[11:21] <zenmower> 80 gb hd with 24 gig free to 25 gig
[11:22] <red2kic> zenmower: Assuming you knew how to use Gparted. I hope you didn't perform multiple actions on it.
[11:22] <zenmower> i mean
[11:22] <erUSUL> ActionParsnip: :)
[11:22] <zenmower> nope
[11:22] <zcat[1]> For resizing a windows partition, my (painful) experience leads me to say that it's best to do this from windows and then have ubuntu use the 'free space' that Windows has created
[11:22] <zenmower> i was lazy
[11:22] <zenmower> i should have used fdisk
[11:22] <zcat[1]> sometimes Ubuntu messes up..
[11:22]  * zenmower doesn't use windows
[11:22] <ActionParsnip> zcat[1]: true, every OS sucks ;)
[11:22] <zenmower> except for a VM
[11:23] <zenmower> lol
[11:23] <zenmower> yeah ubuntu messes up
[11:23] <zcat[1]> Windows seems to know a bit more about how NTFS works than Linux does..
[11:23] <zenmower> yeah this is an ext4
[11:23] <zcat[1]> which is not really surprising
[11:23] <zenmower> im canceling and using fdisk
[11:24] <sunta> anyone have a resource that tells me about ldap-server migration? need to switch my intranet-ldap from one server to a new one
[11:24] <zenmower> its been 3 hours though...it might take that long again if i use fdisk
[11:24] <isolat3dsh33p> erUSUL, thanks! It's solved. :)
[11:24] <sunta> slapcat / slapadd seems not to be all

[11:25] <dapeamel> hi guys can someone help me to configure my soundcards I should really appreciate it :)
[11:25] <zenmower> what model
[11:25] <zenmower> ?
[11:25] <indus> zcat[1], grsync seems quite good

[11:26] <Gryllida> "make: *** [build] Error 2"
[11:26] <Gryllida> what does it stand for?
[11:26] <zcat[1]> indus:  also be aware that many of the "GUI tools" are just a front end and invoke the same command line tools to actually do the work ;)
[11:26] <indus> zcat[1], yes i did create a small gui app once :) using tk
[11:27] <indus> its quite easy
[11:27] <sunta> Gryllida, compile fails
[11:27] <dapeamel> http://pastebin.com/rG3wc46Y
[11:27] <zcat[1]> I've created many "GUI tools" using bash script and zenity
[11:27] <Gryllida> sunta, how to fix
[11:27] <zenmower> gui is overrated
[11:27] <zenmower> sometimes
[11:27] <zenmower> lol
[11:27] <nikondecade> i just have a quick question guys. i have two internal HDD one for win7 and another im clearing for ubuntu. after i install both os's will show up in the os loader even though they are on two seperate HDD yes?
[11:27] <Tobias92> In case anyone wondered about the solution to my problem from just now, this worked a treat: http://josthalen.wordpress.com/2010/05/17/lucid-lynx-on-eeepc-900hd/
[11:27] <vu1kan> is it possible to customize the resolutions you scroll through using ctrl+alt+(num+/-)?
[11:27] <sunta> Gryllida, depends. did you ./configure ? what are you trying to compile
[11:28] <Okitain> Yes, nikondecade
[11:28] <nikondecade> ok thaNK YOU
[11:28] <vu1kan> nikondecade yes, but you wanna install windoze first, ubuntu second
[11:28] <nikondecade> damn caps lock haha
[11:28] <dapeamel> 06:00.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy LS also 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) HD Audio Controller
[11:28] <nikondecade> windows is already installed
[11:28] <zenmower> nikondecade: you dont want to install windows at all
[11:29] <nikondecade> haha @ zen
[11:29] <vu1kan> windoze will overwrite grub
[11:29] <vu1kan> but if it's already in, you're good to go, just choose 'guided partitioning' while installing ub
[11:29] <zenmower> if you are going to install another OS do OSX86
[11:29] <ActionParsnip> Good old creative audigy issues, now remind me why I will never buy one again. I forget
[11:29] <sunta> dapeamel, Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) HD Audio Controller is what I got. worked out of the box
[11:30] <ActionParsnip> zenmower: assuming the system is mac hardware
[11:30] <dapeamel> ok ok lets go on that one..
[11:30] <dapeamel> one guy in here tried to help me here yesterday but we didnt fixed it..
[11:31] <sunta> dapeamel, try something like  sudo dpkg-reconfigure pulseaudio
[11:31] <nikondecade> im doing this on a preinstalled windows machine. added the second HDD myself. is windows known for causing issues with grub?
[11:31] <dapeamel> my pulse audio arent installed..
[11:31] <johno> o/ hi hi
[11:32] <dapeamel> sudo apt-get install pulseaudio?.
[11:32] <sabri> good morning all
[11:32] <johno> morning
[11:32] <ActionParsnip> nikondecade: if you install windows after linux it will overwrite the bootloader but it can be reinstated from livecd
[11:32] <sabri> how
[11:33] <nikondecade> ok so since im installing linux second there shouldnt be a problem
[11:33] <sabri> i tried to reinstall it by live cd but it don't work
[11:33] <ActionParsnip> nikondecade: if you install linux after most distros (ubuntu included) will detect the windows boot and add it to the boot options
[11:33] <sabri> yes i know
[11:33] <nikondecade> ok thnxs :)
[11:34] <sabri> i do this, but always the same problem
[11:34] <sabri> always i remember that i can find grub loader repair
[11:34] <ActionParsnip> nikondecade: I also recommend a seperate /home partition
[11:34] <sabri> but in the new version i can't find this option in live cd
[11:34] <ActionParsnip> !grub2 | sabri
[11:35] <cyborgsmurf> How do I obtain hotmail-mails to another mailservice like GMail?
[11:36] <LinuxAlbee> I reinstalled Evolution but it didn't show up in the applications menu and I was wondering why?
[11:36] <sabri> yes, i know that grub 2 is the default boot manager, but when i install win 7 i can't access to it, until i can't modify it in the new version of ubuntu
[11:36] <radi> hello, im trying to install lm-sensors, but when i do /etc/init.d/module-init-tools start i get Rejected send message
[11:36] <radi> any ideas ?
[11:36] <nikondecade> ok so do a root partition and a swap and /home?
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> nikondecade: use custom partitioning. 10Gb /, 1xrRAM for swap and the rest for /home
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> LinuxAlbee: log a bug, you can use alacarte to make one manually
[11:38] <LinuxAlbee> okay
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> LinuxAlbee: or kmenuedit if you use kubuntu
[11:39] <LinuxAlbee> using ubuntu
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> nikondecade: if you have loads of ram like 4gb plus you can probably use no swap and be ok
[11:39] <lost_> any guru ca log remote to find out whats wrong with my card
[11:40] <radi> can anyone give me some article how to install lm-sensors ?
[11:40] <sunta> what card

[11:42] <radi> indus, distro or motherboard, cpu, et
[11:42] <Tobias92> is there any way I can select the output device ubuntu should use, but from the commandline?
[11:42] <radi> etc*

[11:47] <intmed> how to change the default window manager
[11:47] <intmed> i am using ubuntu 10.04
[11:48] <cyborgsmurf> is there a way to stop people from sending spam mail to Hotmail?
[11:48] <indus> radi why do you need lm sensors btw
[11:48] <indus> radi it reports too many things useless really
[11:48] <radi> indus, to monitor my hardware's temps
[11:48] <indus> radi did you try in windows?
[11:48] <erUSUL> Kartagis: with a command line id3 editor ?
[11:48] <indus> radi is this a laptop ?
[11:49] <radi> no, its a desktop and i dont use windows ;)
[11:49] <indus> radi actually the command 'sensord' should ask you a set of questions
[11:49] <radi> ( not anymore )
[11:49] <radi> sensord
[11:49] <radi> ops
[11:49] <radi> indus, let me try it, i was doing sensors
[11:50] <intmed> any one pls help
[11:51] <radi> indus, and btw in windows it works with everest and few other software
[11:51] <qopi> upon boot up today I've suddenly got loads of annoying noises when I launch an app, or click around nautilus
[11:51] <radi> indus, if i do sudo sensord nothing happens
[11:51] <Glaucous> I recently installed Ubuntu x64 10.04. The problem is that Ubuntu only recognises two out of my four cores on my CPU. It worked perfectly in 9.10 and on Windows.
[11:51] <erUSUL> intmed: gconf-editor /desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager
[11:52] <dapeamel_> can someone help me to install my soundcard
[11:52] <qopi> despite the fact that in System -> Preferences -> Sounds I've got no sound theme selected
[11:52] <Gryllida> Glaucous, same on live cd of 10.04?
[11:52] <cyborgsmurf> Excuse me... Is there a way to stop people from sending spam mail to Hotmail?
[11:52] <indus> radi ok install it , forgot that step
[11:52] <qopi> how can I get rid of the annoying noises?
[11:52] <indus> radi apt-get install
[11:52] <radi> indus, i did
[11:52] <Gryllida> cyborgsmurf: #defocus
[11:52] <indus> radi strange
[11:52] <radi> * Starting sensor daemon sensord                        [ OK ]
[11:52] <indus> radi ya good
[11:52] <Gryllida> cyborgsmurf: or #ubuntu-offtopic or #security
[11:52] <Glaucous> Gryllida, well I just did a fresh install, so I guess it's pretty much the same?
[11:53] <Gryllida>  Glaucous: your specs, machine model, etc
[11:53] <Gryllida> ?
[11:54] <BlaDe> Hi, the past couple of days I get Nautilus cannot handle ftp locations
[11:54] <BlaDe> if I try to mount the location manually I get: GVFS-RemoteVolumeMonitor-WARNING **: cannot open directory /usr/share/gvfs/remote-volume-monitors: Error opening directory '/usr/share/gvfs/remote-volume-monitors': No such file or directory
[11:54] <BlaDe> does anyone know how I can fix it?
[11:54] <Glaucous> Gryllida, AMD Phenom 2 x4 940, Gigabyte GA-MA790X-UD3P, 8 GB DDR2 Corsair, ATI HD4870 GPU
[11:54] <lukluklukluk4> hello how to install drivers for ati 9550 on my Ubuntu 10.04
[11:55] <radi> who the hell needs 8gb of ram Oo
[11:55] <qopi> wierd, the volume was already turned right down but the noise was still playing. When I selected mute it did indeed mute it, but then when I unselected it the noise has still gone, i.e. the volume slider appeared to suddenly start working again!
[11:55] <Glaucous> radi, got it cheap from a friend. Otherwise, no, no one :P
[11:55] <erUSUL> BlaDe: try reinstalling gvfs-backends and gvfs packages
[11:55] <indus> Glaucous, did you type , cat /proc/cpu/info in terminal
[11:55] <kryl> g nickserv identify powah
[11:55] <radi> :)
[11:55] <gnat_x> is there a meta package that i can purge to uninstall all of xorg and programs that depend on it? i have an old box with lucid that i need to press into service as a router, and i would rather not waste the overhead on X.
[11:55] <kryl> hate ubuntu lol
[11:55] <longkid> how can I know Linux driver version?
[11:56] <indus> radi type sensors in terminal again
[11:56] <erUSUL> kryl: change your password... wverybody has seen it
[11:56] <radi> indus, same output
[11:56] <kryl> lol :)
[11:56] <bastid_raZor> gnat_x: you're using Ubuntu/gnome?
[11:56] <BlaDe> okay erUSUL
[11:56] <gnat_x> i looked at gdm and ubuntu-desktop, though both of those remove shockingly little.
[11:56] <indus> radi thats enough then
[11:56] <Glaucous> indus, yes and it says that there are 2 cpu cores
[11:56] <indus> Glaucous, can i see the putput
[11:56] <indus> output :)
[11:56] <radi> indus, i mean same output as before
[11:57] <indus> radi ah ok
[11:57] <gnat_x> bastid_raZor: yes, its a fairly vanilla install of ubuntu.
[11:57] <ennui> is putting the flag 'boot' on a partition in gparted all I need to do to have my machine's bios boot from that partition?
[11:57] <Glaucous> indus, in a sec, gotta install xchat on ubuntu
[11:57] <radi> indus, so you say there is something special to make it work with via chipset
[11:57] <erUSUL> ennui: bios will look first in disk mbr
[11:57] <indus> radi did read it somewhere, wait
[11:58] <BlaDe> What other packages erUSUL, I'm removing gvfs as we speak
[11:58] <bastid_raZor> gnat_x: you could follow this link and just do the uninstall of gnome.. http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde
[11:58] <Type-O> gnat_x, I would litterally go into synaptic and start removing main packages like xorg, it should clean it down really well
[11:58] <Type-O> gnat_x, or that
[11:58] <erUSUL> BlaDe: removing? reinstalling i said ... anyway gvfs-backends and gvfs
[11:58] <BlaDe> gvfs-backends isn't installed, perhaps that was the problem?
[11:58] <erUSUL> BlaDe: is what « dpkg -S /usr/share/gvfs/remote-volume-monitors » returns
[11:58] <erUSUL> BlaDe: probably
[11:59] <gnat_x> bastid_raZor, Type-O thanks. i was thinking along those lines as well. i would have thought the "ubuntu-desktop" package would properly list xorg as dependency.
[11:59]  * gnat_x should file a bug.
[11:59] <glaucous_> indus, I just noticed something in cpuinfo. It shows that I have two processors with two cores each, so perhaps it's somewhat correct? http://pastebin.com/dWrUfEuM
[11:59] <bastid_raZor> gnat_x: ubuntu-desktop is just a metapackage. it doesn't do what you think.
[12:00] <bazhang> gnat_x, ubuntu-desktop is simply a metapackage removing won't remove others
[12:00] <bazhang> !metapackage > gnat_x
[12:01] <bastid_raZor> glaucous_: quad core is vastly different from quad processors
[12:01] <glaucous_> bastid_raZor, of course
[12:02] <glaucous_> bastid_raZor, but is there a big difference in how Ubuntu manages it?
[12:02] <vu1kan> is it possible to customize the resolutions i can scroll through using ctrl+alt+(num+/-)?
[12:02] <gnat_x> hrm. i thought meta packages worked in both directions, pulling in dependencies, and also marking them as such, but i guess not in the sense of a regular package. guess i was wrong.
[12:02] <BlaDe> erUSUL,  done and it still says the same
[12:02] <erUSUL> BlaDe: then i dunno :(
[12:03] <BlaDe> how do you resintall? i just did apt-get remove/install
[12:03] <bastid_raZor> glaucous_: /proc/cpuinfo is showing you the processors.. not cores
[12:04] <glaucous_> bastid_raZor, it shows me Processor 0 and Processor 1, and on each of them it also says: "cpu cores	: 2"
[12:04] <rww> gnat_x: Ubuntu's default configuration unmarks depends of a metapackage when you remove the metapackage.
[12:05] <bastid_raZor> glaucous_: okay.
[12:05] <rww> gnat_x: or something weird like that, anyway. It's a behavior I don't like and turn off, so I don't know the details.
[12:12] <Kartagis> do you guys happen to know of a tool that allows me to grab the ID3 tag of an mp3 file?
[12:13] <slow-motion> hi
[12:13] <ikonia> Kartagis: there are id3 taggers in the repo
[12:13] <ikonia> Kartagis: all will allow you to grab the tag
[12:14] <Kartagis> ikonia, I installed mp3info but that works with ID3 1.x ?
[12:14] <loopidity> is is possible to log into usb modems? or like AP?
[12:14] <ikonia> Kartagis: should do
[12:15] <Kartagis> ikonia, do you know of one that works with ID3 2.x ?
[12:15] <Slart> loopidity: it would depend on the designers.. probably not though
[12:15] <ikonia> Kartagis: most do, check out the descriptions when you search
[12:15] <loopidity> Slart is there a standard ip like the routers? for ppp
[12:15] <Slart> loopidity: in the old days you could communicate with the modem using at-commands and such.. change settings and whatnot
[12:15] <loopidity> like <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:15] <erUSUL> !find id3 | Kartagis
[12:16] <Slart> loopidity: standard ip for routers?
[12:16] <freeride> guys please advice icq aim client (except empathy pidgin kopete)
[12:16] <loopidity> nevermind
[12:16] <Slart> loopidity: oh.. but that's not standard.. that's like the starting page standard is www.google.com... sure many people have it that way but it's far far from a standard
[12:17] <loopidity> like i can log into my router, can i also log into my usb modem
[12:17] <iceroot> freeride: bitlbee (but you will not like it) so its not a good idea to ask for "best" applikations
[12:17] <loopidity> and maybe see the logs?
[12:17] <iceroot> loopidity: have a look at the manual from that device
[12:17] <Nikon> is it safe to clear out everything in /var/log?
[12:17] <freeride> iceroot why i won't?
[12:18] <Random832> Nikon: why?
[12:18] <abhinav_singh> I have latest version of ubuntu installed on my laptop..when i lock the screen it gets hanged........... how to solve this problem????????????????
[12:18] <iceroot> freeride: its an irc-server :)
[12:18] <Random832> abhinav_singh: don't lock the screen?
[12:18] <Nikon> Random832: the logs have been growing exponentially for some reason
[12:18] <freeride> iceroot i don't ask for the best, i ask for any application
[12:18] <Random832> are you sure it's locking rather than putting in sleep mode that's the problem?
[12:18] <iceroot> freeride: for acting as an icq, jabber, yahoo, msn client
[12:18] <Random832> Nikon: find out which specific log has been growing 'exponentially'
[12:18] <Nikon> Random832: 100 mb every 5 min

[12:19] <freeride> bastid_raZor Yeah i do
[12:19] <Random832> Nikon: just deleting the file won't solve the problem, so you'll need to find out what one it is anyway
[12:19] <Freyr>  is there a utility for exporting pdf files to open office spreadsheet files ?
[12:19] <abhinav_singh> Random832... when i lock the screen ,some times it gets hanged.... not every time

[12:25] <freeride> bastid_raZor it's the most popular where i live

[12:26] <ikonia> abhinav_singh: it's a known issue with gnome-screen saver on certain hardware platforms,
[12:26] <lost_> what doesnt make sense tp me is where does ubuntu gets the path from to load module name
[12:26] <ikonia> abhinav_singh: it doesn't happen all the time does it ?
[12:27] <abhinav_singh> ikonia: yes you are right..it does not happen all the times.
[12:27] <ikonia> abhinav_singh: ok - that's a known problem at the moment

[12:32] <carneiro> skeeter101: wud help us to resolve the issue . Windows lacks the tools we need to resolve the problem :|
[12:32] <Nikon> iflema: thanks for help pointing that out
[12:32] <skeeter101> carneiro:  laptop is not my workstation
[12:32] <carneiro> skeeter101: hmmm ok
[12:32] <`````> I'm going for a vista + ubuntu dualboot, and would like to know if there was a way to customize GRUB, or GRUB alternatives to boot to windows after the certain amount of time in GRUB.
[12:33] <Arc> does anyone know how to enable rndis networking in 10.04?
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> `````:  you can set the defasult OS for Grub to boot.  and you may want to pick a more readable nick.
[12:33] <Slart> `````: set windows to default and a timeout of X seconds
[12:33] <vu1kan> how would i put a shortcut to a url on my desktop?
[12:34] <`````> thankyou slart and Dr_willis. :)
[12:34] <Dr_Willis> vu1kan:  to a web site? Hmm   cant say taht ive ever tried.
[12:34] <Slart> vu1kan: easiest would be to just drag and drop from the firefox address bar
[12:34] <vu1kan> tried that, it just springs back to the addy bar
[12:34] <Slart> vu1kan: you might also use the gnome-open executable..
[12:34] <Dr_Willis> firefox 'web site to go to'  as an executable also.. may work
[12:35] <Nikon> so i guess the root of the problem is, how can i fix this: pulseaudio[#]: lock-autospawn.c: Cannot access autospawn lock.
[12:35] <`````> Dr_Willis: I have `` registered, as well as a few short names with letters, but I didn't autologin, for some reason, and Nickserv bumped me :'|
[12:35] <Slart> vu1kan: drag'n'drop works for me.. you just have to target the little weird symbol to the left of the address
[12:35] <geekphreak> howdy all
[12:35] <Dr_Willis> `````:  well that nick as i 'saw' it on the screen looks like the person chatting Above you is asking the actual question..  I almost replied to the wrong person
[12:36] <Laurenceb> hi, I have issues with wifi on my acer aspire 5101
[12:36] <Laurenceb> the signal is ~100%, but I can only ever connect for a second or two
[12:36] <vu1kan> Slart *facepalm...just tried that...i was selecting the url and draggin it...it was trying to paste it to nowhere...i'm about to sack out
[12:36] <Laurenceb> might it be this issue?  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/369005
[12:36] <Slart> vu1kan: =)
[12:36] <Nikon> im about to run out of disk space again >.< is it safe to clear : /var/log/syslog, /var/log/messages, and /var/log/user.log
[12:36] <Slart> Nikon: yes.. those are safe
[12:36] <iflema> Nikon yes
[12:36] <Nikon> thanks
[12:37] <inveratulo> Nikon: are those files really that big or do you just have a small disk
[12:37] <Nikon> both
[12:37] <IdleOne> vu1kan: create a new launcher and put in the command filed " firefox %u www.yahoo.ca " no quotes for example
[12:37] <kuttan_> Nikon: install localepurge that will get back lots of space, check the size log files..
[12:37] <Slart> Nikon: basically everything ending in .gz in /var/log can be deleted.. I think even *all* the files in /var/log can be deleted without any problems.. but you can start with the packed up, older stuff.. that's the .gz files
[12:37] <`````> Dr_Willis: I'm sorry if this is an obvious corrolary, but can GRUB2 be customized as well?
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> vu1kan:  that only seems to work with specific url's - i just tried it with www.google.com (it worked) but with www.google.com/ig   it did not...
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> `````:  of course it can.
[12:38] <ceno> Hey guys
[12:38] <Nikon> it is just those three
[12:38] <Nikon> and all of the pulseaudio errors
[12:38] <ceno> Anyone know how to properly disable journaling on ext4 filesystems?
[12:38] <Nikon> like iflema said
[12:38] <vu1kan> IdleOne, thx. that might work better, i want a link that opens in epiphany for a flash-based radio station
[12:38] <Nikon> im getting 30 pulseaudio erros a second
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> ceno:  when you format it to be ext4. it should make/enable the journal.
[12:38] <Slart> vu1kan:   you can also create a launcher for    gnome-open http://someurl/with/extra_stuff   it should open in the default browser
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> ceno:  if you disable the journal.. well.. Not sure thats possible.
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> ceno:  that would basically be ext3 + some features.. which may not be doable IF it was allready formated as ext4
[12:40] <kuttan_> ceno disable journal , means ext2fs
[12:40] <geekphreak> Dr_Willis: howdy
[12:40] <Nikon> To put it in perspective, I just deleted syslog a minute ago and it is now 250mb and growing with pulseaudio errors
[12:40] <Dr_Willis> Moo to geekphreak
[12:41] <geekphreak> mooo
[12:41] <ceno> Dr_Willis, I *think* it's possible, I think I saw a tutorial on a blog once, but I honestly don't remember. I think journaling is ruining performance on my system and I'd like to test it O_o
[12:41] <geekphreak> ceno: what are you trying to do/
[12:41] <ceno> kuttan_, you're saying that ext4 without journaling is ext2? that's... not really the case
[12:41] <inveratulo> ceno: chances are its not journaling
[12:42] <ceno> inveratulo, could be, there's only way to find out
[12:42] <ceno> geekbuntu, disable journaling on ext4
[12:42] <vu1kan> Slart, Dr_Willis, IdleOne, thx, got the custom launcher to do what i want
[12:42] <Dr_Willis> ceno:  i dont  think that would be the case.  I do recall reading on the wiki page for ext4 that ext4 is 'partially' backwards compatiable with ext3/2 there are features that you may be using in ext4 that would make it impossible for you to 'downgrade' it to ext2/3
[12:42] <IdleOne> vu1kan: glad to hear it
[12:43] <kuttan_> ceno : well theoretically its not the case , but essentially it amounts to that..
[12:43] <geekphreak> howdy IdleOne , long time
[12:43] <IdleOne> hello geekphreak
[12:43] <kuttan_> ceno , have you tried flags like norelatime in fstab
[12:44] <geekphreak> arvind_k: sir hello
[12:44] <skeeter101> careiro:  whenever you are ready......lol  I am at a loss and standing by
[12:44] <ceno> kuttan_, yeah, I already have a set of tweaks I learned about to improve performance on my netbook
[12:44] <skeeter101> carneiro:  whenever you are ready......lol  I am at a loss and standing by
[12:45] <indus> does anyone know about awn
[12:45] <indus> how to add a custom appl launcher to it
[12:45] <ceno> Dr_Willis, ok, I'll keep digging for information
[12:46] <Nikon> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9402394
[12:46] <Nikon> these two people seem to have the same problem
[12:48] <vu1kan> now, my next annoyance: is it possible to customize the resolutions you can scroll through using ctrl+alt+(num+/-)?
[12:49] <Dr_Willis> vu1kan:  ages ago it used to be.. but the use of those combo keys- is rather rarely used these days
[12:50] <vu1kan> Dr_Willis knuts...i'm just wanting to remove the display shortcut in my panel
[12:50] <Slart> vu1kan: I think those are the modelines defined in your xorg.conf.. if they aren't defined there xorg automatically generates them by talking to the graphics card and monitor.. you might be able to define the ones you want in your xorg.conf and hopefully only those will be enabled
[12:50] <vu1kan> but retain the ablity to swap res on the fly
[12:50] <Dr_Willis> vu1kan:  how often are you really needing to change res?
[12:51] <vu1kan> Dr_Willis: three or four times a day...flash doesn't work in fullscreen since the update, so i use an inflated rez to emulate fullscreen on sites like megavideo
[12:51] <freakynl> hi, are there any scripts in ubuntu's repository to automatically run iptables save/restore?
[12:51] <abhi_nav> i have disabled the logoin sound from sys=admin=logins screen. but still it plays at each logoin. how to disable it?
[12:52] <vu1kan> Slart i'll try defining my desired modes and see if that does what i want
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> vu1kan:  if you are using compiz there is a 'zoom' feature  mouse wheel+windows key.
[12:53] <vu1kan> Dr_Willis...my video adapter's a Voodoo 3...old, old card, couldn't do compiz if you held a gun to it's head
[12:53] <Dr_Willis> vu1kan:  egads.. im suprised flash even works on it :) that is ols.
[12:54] <theadmin> Does anyone know how to get the LinuxMint theme on Ubuntu?
[12:54] <Dr_Willis> vu1kan:  there are some dock applets for xrandr also thats lets you change res. Or you could make some hotkeys that use xrandr
[12:54] <vu1kan> 16mb o' vram, baby. better than my nVidia Vanta-8mb
[12:54] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  find the theme.. drag it your themes dir. (or the appearance tool and let it install it)
[12:54] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: As if it were that simple, as for where to find it... :/ I have no idea what is the name, used Linux Mint a long while ago
[12:55] <skeeter101> ok guys, here is my issue, one ubuntu server with two nic cards, eth0 is internal with 192 ip, eth1 is external public ip....if both interfaces are up, I cannot hit the external ip, I must take down eth0 before I can hit eth1......anyone got any ideas?
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  boot up a mint live cd.. check tgheir themes dir..
[12:55] <theadmin> !themes
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  or check on gnome-look type sites.
[12:55] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: To get the liveCD, I'll have to waste time to download it, and I can't, I'm leaving in the evening
[12:56] <Dr_Willis> theadmin: check their repos perhaps.
[12:56] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: "their" repos? Bah! They use same ones as Ubuntu
[12:56] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  they have their own custome ones as well i recall. I seem to recall SOME app i used ages ago that did isntall the mint theme for me once...
[12:57] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  it Might of been gstyle, or epidermis
[12:57] <Dr_Willis> one of those grabbed a lot of differnt themes from 'somewhere' and let you install themn with a few clicks.
[12:57] <theadmin> !find gstyle
[12:57] <theadmin> ...huh.
[12:57] <VCoolio> abhi_nav: you'll need to do that as gdm user (you as user aren't active yet in the login screen; no use to disable the sound there; in terminal, enter this: sudo -u gdm gconftool-2 –-set /desktop/gnome/sound/event_sounds –-type bool false
[12:58] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  the 2 were not in the repos
[12:58] <skeeter101> hasn't anyone got an ubuntu server with two nic cards in it?  I am running version 9.10.....

[12:59] <Dr_Willis> I dont recall the mint theme being that.. err. outstanding. :)
[12:59] <kryptyk> other than the built in sound card*
[12:59] <Dr_Willis> the new Victory theme looks nice - but not exactly the kind of theme i like -> http://www.webupd8.org/2010/06/victory-is-amazing-fully-customizable.html
[12:59] <Slart> skeeter101: sure.. I've got a 32bit ubuntu with two nics.. no problem pinging the outside nic from the system
[13:00] <abhi_nav> VCoolio, isnt gthere any easy way? it give me the error that i should specify type when setting value
[13:00] <Slart> skeeter101: I don't think I've done anything special to make it that way either.. it was the way it worked after I setup internet connection sharing, NAT and such

[13:03] <VCoolio> abhi_nav: gdm2 isn't as configurable yet as the old gdm; you can use https://launchpad.net/gdm2setup ; the tricky part is that the login screen doesn't belong to you as user but to gdm, so you can't edit it in your user's gconf-editor
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> bergLNX:  its very lijkely you used sudo to run it in the past.. and That put the wrong permissions on the dirs. You could just delete the dirs.. and rerun the app as a user.

[13:06] <ikonia> APS: what version of ubuntu is this
[13:06] <Dr_Willis> bergLNX:  check your permissions on all the dirs in your users Home. they should be owned by your user, not root.
[13:06] <ikonia> APS: as it looks like vim is somehow working with ruby built for 486 - which none of the ubuntu packages are
[13:06] <APS> 10.04
[13:07] <APS> ikonia: 10.04 I am using.
[13:07] <ikonia> APS: that looks most most odd
[13:07] <ikonia> APS: you've not got "vim-rails installed have you ?
[13:07] <APS> Yes so any clue what best I can do to fix the issue
[13:07] <VCoolio> abhi_nav: there is an howto included on top of the link I gave, install python-gdm2setup
[13:08] <APS> yes
[13:08] <APS>  rails-vim is installed.
[13:08] <ikonia> APS: I think that's the issue - dump it
[13:08] <bergLNX> Dr_Willis: yeah, theyre all owned my me...
[13:08] <dragon-eye> sometime i download tar or gz file which written in C code. But i can't install it
[13:08] <APS> ok
[13:08] <Dr_Willis> vim my_file.rb  works here.. i dont have rails-vim installed. :)
[13:08] <abhi_nav> VCoolio, ok.
[13:08] <ikonia> I suspet rails-vim is the issue here
[13:08] <APS> i mean dump it i didn't get
[13:08] <Fanshawe> Hey everybody. Can someone link me to a good step-by-step for setting up LVM without formatting?
[13:08] <Dr_Willis> bergLNX:  i would double check the subdirs also then.. one or more of them are proberly still owned by root. or it wouldebnt be saying that.
[13:09] <ikonia> APS: remove that package
[13:09] <APS> ok great let me try that..

[13:27] <loopidity> crx i like the thought
[13:27] <loopidity> get some linux boojks
[13:27] <kryptyk> Suresh: You have to add the 'Notification Area' - this will get your sound and network icons

[13:27] <loopidity> get some vim books
[13:28] <loopidity> get sume bash books

[13:29] <solkig> crx: http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/index_main.html
[13:29] <kryptyk> One is called 'Notification area' or something similar - select that one and click 'Add'
[13:29] <suresh> yes i got sound button
[13:29] <loopidity> crx google for bash, python, vim , linux, c,  and study
[13:29] <unop> s3r3n1t7, depends on the user that logged on to samba -- or guest by default
[13:29] <Pici> !manual | crx
[13:30] <suresh> for network icon....
[13:30] <s3r3n1t7> unop, there's an actual user called guest that's used for that? I have a dir i want to be writable via the network but not world writable.
[13:30] <abhi_nav> VCoolio, i remove gnome sound from startup aps. I hope it wll sove my probl.
[13:30] <VCoolio> abhi_nav: then delete or rename the sound in /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo, it's something with 'ready' in the name
[13:30] <kryptyk> Suresh: The network icon is part of the 'notification Area' panel applet
[13:30] <abhi_nav> VCoolio, ok I wll try it later.
[13:31] <suresh> oh
[13:31] <suresh> got it
[13:31] <suresh> great!
[13:31] <unop> s3r3n1t7, yes, there is a samba user called guest for compatibility with the windows/NT user by the same name -- why don't you require users logon before writing to the dir?
[13:31] <suresh> thanks kryptyk!!!
[13:31] <kryptyk> No worries, Suresh!
[13:31] <suresh> have a nice time!

The software that's used from windows doesn't authenticate properly for *insert mystical reason here*, so i'm just trying to solve this another way. As the network is private between the VM's the security is not all that relevant.
[13:33] <vu1kan> is there a way to lock an entire panel to prevent changes to it?(beyond locking the individual applets to the panel)

[13:40] <Jerusalem420> how can i tell my ubuntu machine to use a specific DNS as opposed to whatever my ISP defaults to?

[13:41] <Jerusalem420> thanks sunta
[13:42] <zkriesse> hello subzero2000 and foxbuntu
[13:42] <BluesKaj> kryptyk, in alsamixer make sure pcm is turned up and not muted
[13:42] <suresh> i am using a prepaid mobile broadband connection, my isp does not provide usage i need to keep track of it onwards
[13:42] <zkriesse> foxtrot: hello and welcome
[13:42] <rascal999> using mail, how do i change the root email address?
[13:42] <kryptyk> BluesKaj - I completely removed PulseAudio immediately after installing the OS..
[13:42] <sunta> suresh, see vnstat !
[13:42] <suresh> sunta: where can i find that?
[13:42] <kryptyk> BluesKaj, the problem is not that there is no sound - the audio system does not even recognize that the headphones are connected
[13:42] <sunta> suresh, sudo apt-get install vnstat
[13:42] <sunta> suresh, apt-cache show vnstat
[13:42] <kryptyk> Yet the OS sees them as being connected
[13:43] <suresh> ok
[13:43] <foxtrot> Hi, im installing ubuntu off an external USB cdrom, and it gets to the ubuntu with 5 red blinking dots under it, andthen after like 5-10 minutes all the dots go red and then thescreen flashesand goes black and stilll hasnt come back
[13:43] <foxtrot> anyonehaveanyideas
[13:44] <BluesKaj> kryptyk, yeah unfortunately redirecting audio to a USB device is a known problem
[13:45] <kryptyk> BluesKaj - the strange thing is that they worked fine previously. Then one day - nothing. Strangely enough, the volume controls on the headset adjust the system volume. But the sound subsystem does not see them as an output device
[13:45] <theadmin> foxtrot: use spaces properly, please, english is not japanese. As for that, LiveCD WILL take long to boot on old systems, and not only booting from CDrom is slow by itself, a USB CDrom is yet slower.
[13:45] <mataks> help i can't copy and paste file in my external USB, why is that?
[13:45] <theadmin> mataks: Permissions?
[13:46] <foxtrot> theadmin: I am using a very small netbook and the spacebar doesnt always catch
[13:46] <mataks> theadmin, how to access it? i am root
[13:46] <foxtrot> theadmin: the cdrom isnt even spinning anymore though
[13:46] <syron> Hey guys, I got a weird problem, I cannot right click on desktop :/
[13:46] <foxtrot> how long shouldI give it?
[13:46] <foxtrot> its a Pentium M 1.4ghz w/ 1gb of RAM
[13:46] <theadmin> foxtrot: Oh... did you verify the CD? It took about 7 minutes to boot here (Live session) or 3 minutes for just installer
[13:47] <foxtrot> its the Desktop Edition from ubuntu.com
[13:47] <theadmin> foxtrot: And it's an ancient machine, so I guess something is wrong there.
[13:47] <sunta> mataks, root always bad but you should find your mount beneath /media/
[13:47] <foxtrot> oh is ubuntu not useful on older hardware?
[13:47] <foxtrot> shoot
[13:47] <sunta> foxbuntu, clean keyboard?;)
[13:48]  * foxtrot ponders what to do for an OS on this old Dell D400 laptop
[13:48] <loewi> foxtrot: Pentium M, 1 GHz, 1GB RAM, live-CD takes 12 min to reach the desktop, afterwards runs snappy
[13:48] <theadmin> foxtrot: No, that's not what I mean... My machine is 10 years old. Ubuntu works fine but Live session took fracking long to boot
[13:48] <Beelsebob> I'm having a very weird issue with ssh...
[13:48] <foxtrot> loewi: so I should keep waiting?
[13:48] <Beelsebob> when the machine first starts, it's not accessible
[13:48] <foxtrot> it been...7-8 minutes
[13:49] <Beelsebob> if I locally, run *something* that uses the network (e.g. netstat, or ssh localhost), it suddenly starts accepting connections
[13:49] <Worms> foxbuntu, it is better to install with live usb if your laptop supports. use unetbootin. Its fast
[13:49] <loewi> foxtrot: I wait 12 min for it to start - depends on you CD-Drive, etc
[13:50] <theadmin> Did Lubuntu receive official acknowledgement from Canonical yet?
[13:50] <foxtrot> its a 24x USB cdrom
[13:50] <Worms> foxtrot, ^^
[13:50] <foxtrot> loewi: i just think its crashing/freezing
[13:50] <SwedeMike> foxtrot: you'd be better off putting it on a 1G (or larger) USB stick, much quicker.
[13:50] <foxtrot> my laptop doesnt support that i dont think
[13:51] <sunta> foxtrot, maybe CD burn went wrong? hang on another 10min and make an bootable USB-stick if system still not up
[13:51] <foxtrot> what do I use to convert this 10.04 .iso to a flash drive? unetbootin?
[13:51] <geof270> Hello. Which is more stable, ubuntu server or desktop/alternate, 10.04, lucid, and would anyone recommend KDE-desktop loaded on top?
[13:51] <theadmin> foxtrot: Either this or usb-creator
[13:51] <theadmin> foxtrot: Unetbootin worked sweet for me
[13:52] <Pici> foxtrot: You can try using the alternate CD if you'd just like to install Ubuntu, it does not load a Live session.
[13:52] <foxtrot> does that work in windows?
[13:52] <erUSUL> geof270: if you are going to use it as a dektop use the desktop version
[13:52] <Pici> geof270: They are all stable.
[13:52] <foxtrot> yeah i just want to install it
[13:52] <theadmin> geof270: KDE is fine. Both are same stability, just different packages. Desktop and alternate have only 1 difference: You can't try the live session with the alternate
[13:52] <erUSUL> foxtrot: yes unetbootin works in windows
[13:52] <foxtrot> Pici: link?
[13:53] <theadmin> foxtrot: http://unetbootin.sf.net
[13:53] <Pici> foxtrot: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download#alternate
[13:53] <geof270> I wouldn't say stable. I've had trouble w kubuntu 10.04 crashing
[13:53] <ralnaemi> What's the most common reason for conky not appearing?
[13:53] <ralnaemi> Other than a faulty .conf
[13:54] <geof270> But I had ubuntu-desktop  loaded on top
[13:54] <p1l0t> ralnaemi - not being installed :P
[13:54] <Worms> foxtrot, use lili live usb creator, not unetbootin. Unetbootin works fine for live session but breaks while installing (only lucid).
[13:54] <meowbuntu> Joshmuffin: i have the 64 bit bersion of ubuntu on my amd 64 bit computer in system moniter it only shows 3gig ram i read that 64 bit os would be able to read the full 4
[13:54] <geof270> So I'm wondering if I should start w unbuntu first, the load kubuntu-destop
[13:55] <ralnaemi> p1l0t: That was inappropriate. The great leader will proceed to terminate you.
[13:55] <foxtrot> worms: where can I get that? is it free?
[13:56] <ceno> hey guys
[13:56] <meowbuntu> anyone know
[13:56] <ikonia> meowbuntu: know what, what's up
[13:56] <sunta> meowbuntu, show uname -a output
[13:56] <meowbuntu> i have the 64 bit bersion of ubuntu on my amd 64 bit computer in system moniter it only shows 3gig ram i read that 64 bit os would be able to read the full 4

[13:57] <syron> anyone know how to fix right-click on desktop? Can't do that :/ but my mouse is working perfectly on other windows and panels... :/

[13:58] <ikonia> meowbuntu: now can you do the output of "free" please
[13:58] <abhi_nav> syron, try runninc 'nautilus' in terminal and then try.
[13:59] <Worms> foxtrot, yes its is free. Works well.http://www.linuxliveusb.com/. Donot use  persistent option, it makes it slower.
[13:59] <Pici> meowbuntu: Are you running Mint?
[13:59] <syron> abhi_nav, I did that, I tried nautilus & and the filebrowser popped up, but I still can't right click on desktop :/
[13:59] <vu1kan> ack...i locked down my panel in gconf-editor, but when i ran gnome-panel restart it restored the default panels ONTOP of my custom one...what command should i use to restart the panel?(to re-apply the unlocked state i already toggled)
[13:59] <abhi_nav> syron, hmm
[14:00] <meowbuntu> i do run mint on this laptop as my main os y
[14:00] <ikonia> ughhh
[14:00] <ikonia> meowbuntu: mint isn't supported here
[14:00] <meowbuntu> i am using ubuntu 10 atm
[14:00] <ikonia> meowbuntu: sorry, didn't know you where running mint
[14:00] <ikonia> meowbuntu: ok - so you're having this problem in ubuntu - not mint
[14:01] <meowbuntu> i have several os on this machine
[14:01] <meowbuntu> yes
[14:01] <sunta> meowbuntu, boot into ubuntu
[14:01] <meowbuntu> adn in the latest mint too

[14:05] <meowbuntu> ikonia: just wondering could it be the bios not able to read it
[14:05] <ikonia> meowbuntu: 1.) I don't think your upt to date with your laptop - that kernel is not the latest available, 2.) I think you have a hardware error with some of your ram then
[14:05] <meowbuntu> or bios is not set up
[14:05] <ikonia> meowbuntu: that shows ubuntu can only see 3gig of ram, so it's got to be hardware related
[14:05] <sunta> meowbuntu, do an sudo apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
[14:06] <sunta> meowbuntu, might watch for PAE-kernel too
[14:06] <ikonia> sunta: why ??? he's using 64 bit
[14:06] <augdawg> i am using the gimp and i resized an image, but when i save it, it is small compared to the icon that is on my desktop. does anyone know how to fix this?
[14:06] <meowbuntu> sunta: will that upgrade the kernel and latest stuff
[14:06] <ikonia> sunta: the PAE kernel has no relevence

[14:07] <ikonia> meowbuntu: sorry - not you
[14:07] <ikonia> martiner: you can't
[14:07] <skeeter101> if there is someone out there willing to help me solve my issue, please dcc me.  Been here all night and still at a loss......
[14:07] <martiner> Hmm.... thats wierd.. I was given that quwstion for school....
[14:07] <ikonia> skeeter101: what's the issue
[14:07] <meowbuntu> come to think of it this is a new install yesterday i dont think i haev done any updates so far
[14:07] <meowbuntu> that could be the problem
[14:08] <ikonia> meowbuntu: it's not
[14:08] <kjkjava> martiner: if it ends with d
[14:08] <meowbuntu> and also bios
[14:08] <ikonia> kjkjava: that's nonsense
[14:08] <kjkjava> martiner: and run by root. ha, I know
[14:08] <skeeter101> ikonia:  one ubuntu box, two nic cards, eth0 is internal, eth1 is external....when both are up, I cannot ping or access the external ip
[14:08] <ikonia> kjkjava: if you know it's nosense - don't miss-lead people
[14:08] <ikonia> martiner: ignore kjkjava comments
[14:08] <kjkjava> ikonia: my appologies...
[14:08] <Adem> skeeter101:  because its lan rofl.
[14:09] <martiner> Really? Ok.. got my hopes up there
[14:09] <ikonia> skeeter101: look at your default route
[14:09] <ikonia> Adem: how is it being on a lan a problem ?
[14:09] <augdawg> does anyone know how to resize an image thats on my desktop so that it matches an image that i jusat made in the gimp?
[14:09] <Adem> pinging is usually to see if a wan ip responds
[14:09] <Adem> correct me if im wrong
[14:09] <ikonia> Adem: you're VERY wrong
[14:09] <ikonia> Adem: so research what you say before laughing at someone
[14:09] <Adem> lol sorry
[14:09] <Adem> was taking a wild stab
[14:09] <sunta> ping is sending ICMP packets
[14:09] <BluesKaj> kryptyk, this is quite an old script fix , but it might be worth a try,  http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/usb-speakers-as-default-649705/#post3187306
[14:09] <ikonia> Adem: if you don't know what you're saying - best not to offer adice
[14:10] <Adem> i was laughing at what i said, not what he asked
[14:10] <ikonia> advice
[14:10] <Adem> advice
[14:10] <Adem> *
[14:10] <Adem> lol
[14:10] <FloodBot4> Adem: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:10] <skeeter101> ikonia:  as of now the default gw is for the internal lan.....
[14:10] <tristangage> hey jord
[14:10] <ikonia> skeeter101: are both networks up ?
[14:10] <LjL> martiner: uhm, i don't think there is a reliable way to tell a daemon process from a vanilla one... they're the same thing. a daemon will generally not have a controlling terminal, but then so do X11 clients
[14:10] <skeeter101> ikonia: is probably why I cannot ping the external correct?
[14:10] <skeeter101> yes they are
[14:10] <ikonia> skeeter101: correct, the interneal gateway will probably have no idea how to route externally
[14:10] <skeeter101> ikonia:  what is required to make it work?
[14:11] <ikonia> skeeter101: I'd suggest making your default gateway your external gateway machine, then making your internal network card a route for the private lan range
[14:11] <martiner> LjL, yeah, thats my understanding aswell... But the teacher wants an answer im afraid.. grrr
[14:11] <ikonia> skeeter101: that way anything thats not on your lan gets routed out of the external interface, rather than internal
[14:11] <sunta> martel, the answer can be "you cannot see zombie status within top"
[14:11] <meowbuntu> i have an error when trying to update E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied)
[14:11] <meowbuntu> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[14:12] <ikonia> sunta: you can see zombie processes in top - it lists them as "zombie"
[14:12] <LjL> martiner: well, "ends with d" really is the closest i can think of, although it's obviously just a loose convention, and you can easily have daemons with names not ending with d, or normal processes that do end with d.
[14:12] <ikonia> !fixdpg | meowbuntu
[14:12] <skramer_> martiner: in fact, you can see the status of each process
[14:12] <martiner> skramer_, Yeah?
[14:12] <skeeter101> ikonia:  could you assist me in doing that?  I can provide whatever info u need....I have been at this far too long.....
[14:12] <ikonia> skeeter101: how did you set your network cards up (what tool)
[14:12] <evon> How do i restart all my sound devices? Pulse, alsa etc?
[14:13] <skramer_> martiner: in top, it's the column just left to the "% CPU " column
[14:13] <LjL> martiner: it's also true that they're usually run as root, although that too is really no guarrantee at all
[14:13] <skeeter101> ikonia:  terminal
[14:13] <ikonia> skeeter101: ok - so you neet to use the route command "route add/route delete" to add and remove the routes to make your external card default and
[14:13] <martiner> skramer_, all I have there are s:s, and one R
[14:13] <ikonia> however I must away now to other things
[14:14] <LjL> martiner: yeah, most processes will be sleeping most of the time, whether or not they're daemons
[14:14] <martiner> Got damn trick questions :p
[14:14] <martiner> Thanks for your help everyone
[14:14] <skramer_> martiner: R is running process, S is sleeping process
[14:14] <wildbat> how do i set the account "guest" auto logout after inactive like 5 min ?
[14:14] <kryptyk> BluesKaj, thanks, but still no luck. I can't set the USB headset to be default by editing the files because the sound system does not even recognize that they are attached - even though the OS does.
[14:15] <skramer_> martiner: D means "uninteruptable sleep" which should be a daemon, then
[14:16] <LjL> skramer_: but then none of my daemons is currently in that state
[14:17] <martiner> This was a trickier question than i imagined....
[14:17] <augdawg> how can i get clamav to test thinga outside of my home folder?
[14:17] <sunta> does SMTP really stand for "send message to person"?
[14:18] <sunta> jk, pls dont kick
[14:18] <sunta> I got that asked
[14:18] <kleetus> I am trying to understand pulseaudio as it is used in 10.04. I have a epia cn13000G board and audio seems to play in rythmnbox and mplayer, but no actually sound eminates from my headphones plugged into the output 3.5mm jack. I ran alsamixer and made sure all outputs were not muted and that the audio controls in the upper right of gnome were not muted either, where should I look next?
[14:18] <LjL> simple mail transfer protocol, sunta
[14:18] <augdawg> nice one, sunta
[14:18] <sunta> heard someone explaining SMTP so someone with that
[14:19] <indus> augdawg, it shows directories
[14:19] <BluesKaj> kleetus, make sure the pcm ctrl is turned up
[14:19] <indus> kleetus, i suggest you only fiddle with the sound properties applet on panel, pulseaudio can be complex
[14:19] <augdawg> indus: but it wont let me search my entire drive if im dual booting windows, will it?
[14:20] <vak> !spellcheck
[14:20] <indus> augdawg, windows drive iam not sure
[14:20] <PuffTheMagic> how do i make init scripts verbose
[14:20] <PuffTheMagic> i cant see any output
[14:20] <theadmin> sunta: SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol
[14:20] <kleetus> BluesKaj:  is that in the audio control panel or alsamixer?
[14:20] <indus> augdawg, i suggest using awast for linux
[14:20] <PuffTheMagic> and cant debug why this service aint starting
[14:20] <augdawg> okay thanks indus ill keep looking
[14:20] <vak> How to install additional spell-check dictionaries (e.g. for Empathy) ?
[14:20] <BluesKaj> kleetus, both
[14:20] <indus> augdawg, clamav aint good anti virus really
[14:20] <kleetus> BluesKaj:  great thanks
[14:21] <augdawg> indus, avast for linux: ive tried it and i love it but for some reason when i run it gibves an error
[14:21] <indus> augdawg, what error
[14:21] <indus> augdawg, try the latest one ?
[14:21] <augdawg> im not sure indus.
[14:21] <indus> augdawg, their recent windows version is so great
[14:21] <augdawg> i removed it after it stared working indus.
[14:21] <augdawg> whos, avast?
[14:22] <indus> augdawg, ?
[14:22] <skeeter101> ikonia:  what you suggested to me, should that give me "two" defaults showing the gw's for both nic cards?
[14:22] <augdawg> indus ill try again in get back to you in a sec. ill go instal it again.
[14:22] <Oer> hi
[14:23] <indus> augdawg, but in either software iam not sure if windows drives can be scanned ,
[14:23] <indus> iam downloading now so lets see
[14:23] <augdawg> indus can at least search installed apps on ubuntu?
[14:23] <augdawg> im not sure how but it seems they overlooked that
[14:23] <indus> augdawg, applications , no , folders and drives yes
[14:23] <indus> and cd s
[14:24] <augdawg> okay thanks. i wished theyd added that
[14:24] <augdawg> indus im dowbloading it right now
[14:25] <indus> augdawg, why do u need an anti virus btw
[14:25] <augdawg> indus it just seems like a good idea to have
[14:25] <augdawg> one
[14:25] <indus> ok
[14:25] <indus> sure
[14:25] <augdawg> i hate the registration thing for avast though
[14:25] <augdawg> indus
[14:26] <indus> me too :) but its to know how many users actually instaleld it :)
[14:26] <jpds> !virus
[14:26] <indus> augdawg, is your nick based on auggy doggy
[14:26] <augdawg> no its not but who is that
[14:26] <augdawg> i8ndus
[14:26]  * indus remembers an animation
[14:27] <augdawg> 'not its not indus but who is that
[14:27] <BluesKaj> kryptyk, here'a another fix ,it's a bit more recent , http://linuxowns.wordpress.com/2008/07/08/how-i-got-my-usb-headset-to-work/
[14:27] <indus> augdawg, some cartoon character
[14:27] <augdawg> okay. im filling out registration right now
[14:28] <indus> augdawg, you can run without it for 60 days
[14:28] <trans> hello everyone
[14:28] <trans> need little help regarding gdesklets
[14:28] <augdawg> indus well i already have it from when i used it befroe
[14:28] <arunkumar413> hi,friends i found this open source software and want to compile it for ubuntu. plz help me
[14:29] <trans> i installed gdesklets recently but i dont know how to start it
[14:29] <Slart> arunkumar413: which software is it?
[14:29] <nan77240> r
[14:29] <indus> arunkumar413, first step is to install the build-essential package
[14:29] <p1l0t> !launchpad
[14:29] <arunkumar413> the source is in c++
[14:29] <kryptyk> BluesKaj, I really appreciate the effort. Unfortunately, that link will still not get me going. It outlines configuring the settings for the headset. The problem is, even though the headset is connected and recognized by the OS (confirmed with 'dmesg' and 'lsusb') no sound applets show it as an output device
[14:29] <indus> augdawg, oh they require compulsory registration ?
[14:30] <kryptyk> It is like it is not even connected as far as the sound subsystem is concerned even though the OS sees it
[14:30] <arunkumar413> indus: the source is in c++ and i installed g++ compiler.
[14:30] <indus> arunkumar413, install the build-essential package for any compilations
[14:30] <augdawg> indus: im not sure what that means but i just installed it and its not showing up in my apps
[14:30] <arunkumar413> indus: http://www.suigyodo.com/online/e/index.htm
[14:30] <djl> whois Cesar_Augusto_U
[14:30] <indus> augdawg, its in accessories
[14:31] <indus> Slart, http://www.suigyodo.com/online/e/index.htm
[14:31] <augdawg> djl: caesar augustus/ son i think
[14:31] <MyNickWasInUse> can someone tell me whats wrong? [http://cl.ly/b707445ab28411aab415]
[14:31] <arunkumar413> indus: the site says that it is tested on knoppix
[14:31] <augdawg> indus: its still not showing up. that happens to me alot and i dont nkow why
[14:31] <indus> augdawg, just start from terminal
[14:31] <indus> avast
[14:32] <augdawg> indus trying that
[14:32] <BluesKaj> kryptyk, did you try or are you assumeing the tutorial won't work due to the dmesg  output?
[14:32] <indus> arunkumar413, did you read the 'read me' ?
[14:32] <sunta> soccer soon....
[14:32] <augdawg> indus it says it cannot initialize enigne: invalid argument in terminal
[14:32] <sockets> soccer soon??
[14:32] <arunkumar413> indus: ya,there is nothing in it
[14:32] <sunta> england in 30min
[14:33] <LjL> !ot
[14:33] <iceroot> sunta: its offtopic and england has nothing to do with soccer
[14:33] <indus> augdawg, hmm
[14:33] <sockets> OK, sorry.
[14:33] <indus> augdawg, not sure what that error is
[14:33] <sunta> lol
[14:33] <augdawg> i have no clue indus
[14:33] <indus> augdawg, i downloaded but its asking for key :) iam too lazy to do that
[14:34] <geof270> Hello, anyone have problems w ureadahead on Lucid?
[14:34] <augdawg> could it be that im running ful ubuntu on a netbook?
[14:34] <theadmin> geof270: What kind of?
[14:34] <kryptyk> BluesKaj - I tried the guide, but the step 'Select USB Headset' in the sound window is not possible. I cannot select it and configure it because no sound applet on this machine sees it as an output device. The only thing that shows up on any sound applet is the built in sound card
[14:34] <augdawg> indus could it be that i am running full ubuntu on a netbook?
[14:34] <arunkumar413> indus: in the read me file it asks to typo qmake
[14:34] <BluesKaj> kryptyk, ok, bummer :(
[14:35] <kryptyk> BluesKaj - Indeed. I appreciate your efforts just the same though
[14:35] <indus> arunkumar413, yes then do it but have you instaled the package i told you
[14:35] <arunkumar413> indus: i typed,it asks to install qt-dev-tools
[14:35] <MyNickWasInUse> guys, i'm getting an error with 'make' command in terminal
[14:35] <MyNickWasInUse> i don't know whats wrong :/
[14:35] <indus> augdawg, hmm netbook
[14:36] <augdawg> indus it usually works fine though
[14:36] <indus> augdawg, must be some other error, try restart pc
[14:36] <arunkumar413> indus: what is the build essential package
[14:36] <augdawg> okay ill be right back
[14:36] <BluesKaj> kryptyk, np
[14:36] <indus> !build-essential
[14:36] <augdawg> indus ill be right back
[14:36] <VCoolio> MyNickWasInUse: what are you 'making' and paste the error on paste.ubuntu.com
[14:36] <indus> arunkumar413, it is compulsory to compile anything on ubuntu or debian, and you wont have to install other things individually
[14:37] <indus> arunkumar413, just type sudo apt-get install build-essential
[14:37] <frxstrem> is there a program capable of opening .dat files in Ubuntu?
[14:37] <indus> frxstrem, dat is not a format really, this is probably a video ?
[14:37] <aleray> hi, where can I find usb-modswitch? it doesn't seem to be in synaptic
[14:38] <MyNickWasInUse> how do i copy/paste from terminal?
[14:38] <frxstrem> indus: okay, more specifically I believe it's the allegro .dat format (no, it is not a video, it's more like a file archive)
[14:38] <arunkumar413> indus: is that available in the lucid CD-ROM
[14:38] <bazhang> aleray, perhaps a typo? modeswitch?
[14:38] <indus> arunkumar413, dont you have internet ?
[14:38] <MyNickWasInUse> okay nvmi found it
[14:38] <MyNickWasInUse> lol
[14:38] <arunkumar413> indus: ya
[14:38] <indus> arunkumar413, dont think its there in cd rom
[14:38] <pranay_09> while downloading a package via Synaptic package manager in ubuntu when i go for system shutdown , the system does not inform me that a download is in progress, so how can i incorporate this feature?
[14:39] <augdawg> indus still says same thing
[14:39] <arunkumar413> indus: dialup
[14:39] <indus> arunkumar413, download from internet through synaptic
[14:39] <skeeter101> hey guys, after I remove the default gw from the internal side and I do a "ip route", I am seeing a <IP_ADDRESS>.....where did that come from?
[14:39] <MyNickWasInUse> VCoolio: http://paste.ubuntu.com/453923/
[14:39] <Jerusalem420> i'm working on a setting up a website who DNS data hasn't had time to promulgate. so I edited /etc/resolv.conf and put in the dns of the hosting company. the site loads fine, but, it can't resolve google/yahoo/ etc. how can i set up resolv.conf so i dont have to keep switching back and fourth between two copies?
[14:39] <indus> arunkumar413, dial up? why  ?
[14:39] <indus> arunkumar413, mtnl has 2 mbps for 250 rupees
[14:40] <unop> skeeter101, hosts assign themselves addresses in that range when they are unable to get an address from a DHCP server.
[14:40] <arunkumar413> indus: i'm from AP no MTNL here
[14:40] <theadmin> Anyone, please tell me a way to disable any shutdown procedures via GNOME, or make it ask a sudo password
[14:40] <augdawg> indus thanks anyway though
[14:40] <indus> arunkumar413, AP, bsnl ? or some other airtel ?
[14:40] <indus> augdawg, search forums of avast for a solution
[14:40] <skeeter101> unop:  why would it be trying to obtain an ip from the dhcp server.....everything is manually set
[14:40] <VCoolio> MyNickWasInUse: looks disturbing; check if there is a README file for instructions
[14:40] <arunkumar413> indus: bsnl cdma NIC
[14:41] <indus> arunkumar413, you will have to download that package to do any compiling
[14:41] <Pici> theadmin: You may want to look into the pessulus or sabayon packages, as they might be able to lockdown those gnome tools.
[14:41] <arunkumar413> indus: ok finished downloading
[14:41] <indus> arunkumar413, thta was fast
[14:41] <indus> arunkumar413, how is this a dial up
[14:41] <Pici> theadmin: I haven't done any of that myself, just happened to find an article about them long ago.
[14:41] <indus> arunkumar413, you have bsnl data card ?
[14:41] <pakair> aleray, usb-modeswitch and data is available on synaptic
[14:41] <unop> skeeter101, might just be cruft from before the address was set -- in any case, it's nothing to worry about, it's only normal.
[14:42] <arunkumar413> indus: ya
[14:42] <indus> arunkumar413, thats a broadband data card with 3 mbps
[14:42] <arunkumar413> indus: not data card its a CDMA NIC device
[14:42] <indus> arunkumar413, anyways , now try compiling
[14:42] <dragon-eye> is there any IDs tool for web ?
[14:42] <indus> augdawg, what was taht error you got ?
[14:43] <aleray> pakair, I'm trying to install it from a liveusb ubuntu netbook remix, maybe that's the reason?
[14:43] <augdawg> indus same one as in the terminal
[14:43] <augdawg> invalid argumnet could not initialize
[14:43] <pakair> aleray, that might be. I use 10.04 LTS
[14:43] <aleray> pakair, or I need to enable universe repository ??
[14:43] <augdawg> soemhting like tht
[14:43] <skeeter101> unop:  the only way I can access the external ip on that box, is to turn off/disable eth0.....is there a way to have both interfaces up and ping/access either the internal ip or the external ip?
[14:43] <indus> aleray, download the packages from ubuntu package site, packages.ubuntu.com
[14:44] <indus> aleray, hmm nvm
[14:44] <arunkumar413> indus: omg! have to download the qt-3 dev-tools to compile.it about 19mb
[14:44] <indus> !info usb-modeswitch
[14:45] <indus> aleray, is in universe
[14:45] <unop> skeeter101, yes, delete the default route for eth0 and add it in again with a metric higher than the metric of the other default route.
[14:46] <h00k> !away > TannerF
[14:46] <skeeter101> unop:  thank you for the advice, but I am confused, how do I specify "a metric higher"???
[14:47] <skeeter101> unop:  and does the gw for both interfaces need to be set within the interfaces file?
[14:47] <debuggerboy> \quit
[14:48] <arunkumar413> indus: r u there
[14:48] <TannerF> h00k: The last time i changed it was almost 9 hours ago, there are plenty of other people who do it much more often than that.
[14:48] <vitium> is there a way I can download the packages from synaptic as .deb files to my hard drive? (without installing them)
[14:49] <sunta> yes
[14:49] <theadmin> vitium: apt-get -d
[14:49] <sunta> vitium, apt-get -d
[14:49] <ubuntu>  /nick ralf
[14:49] <vitium> theadmin and sunta: so I'd do "sudo apt-get -d packagename"?
