[14:52] <sigius> In my ubuntus .config file just about every box is ticked causing it to build all drivers (for one thing) when building the kernel. How do I come by a smaller .config that builds only the drivers my hardware needs ?
[14:52] <crazzyman2526> I've some problems, when I try to run a fullscreen application (a game, for example teeworlds or something else) my screen shows me an error ("Can't display video mode, change your disply resolution") and I have to restart my computer... has anybody an idea how I can solve this problem (or why there's a problem ;) )
[14:52] <memet> I can't even resize windows
[14:52] <memet> wtf
[14:52] <Joris_> I upgraded from Ubuntu 8.10 (MythTV 0.21) to Ubuntu 9.10 (MythTV 0.22), now all my recordings are subject to quite strong interference; any ideas to start with?
[14:52] <d3xter> TopGear, "mplayer -vo x11 ./" try this one
[14:53] <arand> nlko: new version of gdm, it hasn't been included in the new version yet (wasn't "removed" strictly speaking)
[14:53] <nlko> ah right, soon to be added then i guesS?
[14:53] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, yes I can
[14:53] <TopGear> same error
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: then dns is failing
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: run: gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf     and add these 2 lines
[14:54] <imran> haw to downlord vidios in youtube
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: save the new file and try the web
[14:54] <scunizi> Joris_: I know mythtv has a channel as well if you don't find anyone here to answer your question.
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: those are google's DNS servers
[14:54] <d3xter> TopGear, sry "mplayer -vo x11 *", if you're in the VIDEO_TS folder currently
[14:54] <Guest74896> Every once in a while - at boot I get a white screen and nothing else.  I have to reboot and that usually clears the problem - then everything works fine.  anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: easy addresses to remember
[14:55] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, good, mmt please
[14:56] <bpollifrone> Hello. Is there no support for the lastest nano in 9.10? Is there maybe a devel version of libgpod?
[14:56] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, yeah even for me:)
[14:56] <jimmyxu> !ask | bpollifrone
[14:56] <stephans> how do I restart the pulse audio...? my system has no sound after suspending and resuming... Lenovo t400.
[14:56] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: once its added theres no need to do any restartinng etc, just hit the web
[14:56] <TopGear> It works half
[14:56] <Joris_> scunizi: Thanks, I tried #mythtv-users, but no responses there...
[14:56] <meydlo> anybody may help me with "ath5k phy0: noise floor calibration tameout" pls?
[14:56] <pavel_> ActionParsnip,
[14:56] <d3xter> TopGear, what do you mean with half?
[14:57] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, ok, will post result in a minute
[14:57] <bpollifrone> @jimmyxu: the question is there a devel version of libgpod or other program that supports the latest nano.
[14:57] <TopGear> you'll get a screen
[14:57] <ActionParsnip> meydlo: blacklist ath-hal and ath-pci
[14:57] <scunizi> Joris_: what kind of noise.. visible or audable?
[14:57] <raynob> hi there, I've been using pptp for a long time now and suddenly I can't connect from my windows machine to it anymore.  I get the error GRE: Bad checksum from pppd.
[14:57] <TopGear> http://www.plaatjesupload.nl/bekijken/2224450.html
[14:57] <TopGear> I got no menu
[14:58] <stephans> how do I restart the pulse audio...? my system has no sound after suspending and resuming... Lenovo t400.
[14:58] <Joris_> sunizi: Only visible; diagonal lines and some color flickering
[14:58] <scunizi> Joris_: what video card do you have
[14:58] <TopGear> I'll be rigt back, compiz crashed
[14:58] <Joris_> sunizi: A Hauppage PVR-500 (dual PVR-150 setup)
[14:59] <bpollifrone> I've used gtkpod since I can remember but it seems the latest nano isn't supported. It can find the ipod but always has a seek error which I assume means it doesn't support that version of iTunesDB.
[14:59] <scunizi> Joris_: that the tuner right?
[14:59] <sigius> In my ubuntus .config file just about every box is ticked causing it to build all drivers (for one thing) when building the kernel. How do I come by a smaller .config that builds only the drivers my hardware needs ?
[14:59] <ActionParsnip> stephans: you may have to also remove then modprobe the sound module
[14:59] <nlko> ah, i seem to have sorted it. used synaptic and removed things that looked xubuntu related, think it was xubuntu-splash that solved it
[15:00] <mahngiel> is there a command to install a program WITH it's suggested pkgs?
[15:00] <TopGear> that's better
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> stephans: but: sudo killall pulseaudio; rm -rf ~/.pule*     then press alt+F2 and type: pulseaudio   then press enter will restart pulse
[15:00] <d3xter> TopGear, does "-vo xv" instead of x11 also work?
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> mahngiel: sudo apt-get install packagename
[15:00] <stephans> actionparsnip, how did you come up with that name? ;) Thank you!
[15:00] <Joris_> scunizi: Yes, I watch the recordings on another system (a Mac mini) or via Flash on MythWeb
[15:00] <jezier> hi... I have a question about package versioning... lets say that I want my pacakges with suffix "foo"...  and for example I have patched iptables... (current deb filename is iptables_1.4.4-1ubuntu1_i386.deb)... what name should I choose so that package manager will know that mine is new version... iptables_1.4.4-1ubuntu1foo1_i386.deb ?
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> stephans: its a harry hill joke
[15:00] <TopGear> what was the whole code?
[15:01] <d3xter> TopGear, "mplayer -vo xv *"
[15:01] <elfazendero> #ubuntu-it
[15:01] <scunizi> Joris_: so all the recording have this interfearance imbedded in them and show up no matter what system you play them on?
[15:01] <mahngiel> ActionParsnip: yessir, i know that! lol. but i mean when the Suggested Packages are listed, instead of highlighting them later to install, i'm curious if you can install them automatically with the prgm you're installing
[15:01] <arand> nlko: afaik, i might get added in lucid (10.04), it seems like it was disregarded with a low priority for Karmic (9.10)
[15:01] <mahngiel> ActionParsnip: I.e. 'sudo apt-get install quanta (+ suggested)'
[15:01] <coolcat> hi, I am trying to use the mail program to send e-mails to my gmail account, why they do not get there?
[15:01] <Joris_> scunizi: Yes, that's right
[15:02] <elfazendero> #ubuntu-it
[15:02] <mahngiel> just curious if there is indeed a command or not
[15:02] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, there seems to be trouble that machine is wire-connected and we are trying to establish wireless connection
[15:02] <bastid_raZor> elfazendero: /join #ubuntu-it
[15:02] <i_is_broke> elfazendero,  /join #ubuntu-it
[15:02] <elfazendero> thanx a lot
[15:03] <TopGear> Yes, it works, but still no menu
[15:03] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, so I am not sure whether lshw output is correct
[15:03] <d3xter> TopGear, alright, what does "mplayer -vo xv dvdnav:// /path/to/VIDEO_TS"?
[15:03] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: i used to get that and i just switched t wired. seems a lot better in lucid but the rest is a lot glitchy
[15:03] <TopGear> I am allready in Video_TS
[15:04] <Guest75869> hi
[15:04] <scunizi> Joris_: most likely when you upgraded the Happ. drivers didn't get done correctly.. I'm not sure how they work (kernel mods or not) but you might investigate which drivers are currently being used, what use to be used.. reinstall them for comparison.. check myth's site for 9.10 info and the www.ubuntuforums.org for the same.. I hope that helps.
[15:04] <d3xter> well, then "mplayer -vo xv dvdnav:// ./"
[15:04] <superboki> d3xter: :)
[15:04] <nlko> say i installed an old version of ubuntu, is it trivial to upgrade to 9.10?
[15:04] <jenda> I need help fixing my Ubuntu install. It has been working fine for ages, even after upgrading to Karmic. I run a lot of applications at once (irssi, amarok, virtualbox, firefox, thunderbird and azureus - almost always). Sometimes, however, and I believe it only occurs when copying files (to an external disk or by FTP) with nautilus, the I/O bar on the system monitor panel applet fills up and the system slows down to a crawl, eventually freezing entirely.
[15:04] <nlko> apt-get upgrade?
[15:04] <mahngiel> ok, how about this... is there a way to remove extra packages from an install?
[15:04] <lstarnes> nlko: it depends on the version
[15:04] <d3xter> superboki, hello :)
[15:04] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, I prefer wired connection as well, but I do not want do disappoint a friend of mine who decided to give ubuntu a try
[15:04] <TopGear> error......
[15:05] <Joris_> scunizi: I'll try that
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> !blacklist > ActionParsnip
[15:05] <TopGear> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d9599bb9
[15:05] <d3xter> TopGear, nopaste it
[15:05] <lstarnes> nlko: apt-get upgrade just upgrades packages in the current version to match the versions in the repos
[15:05] <bastid_raZor> mahngiel: what do you consider extra?
[15:05] <scunizi> nlko: a couple of ways.. upgrade manager will have an upgrade button.. you might have to do it one release at a time.. the other is a direct *new* install providing you have a seperate partition for your /home
[15:05] <mahngiel> bastid_raZor: i mean after you 'apt-get install', it says, "The follwoing extra packages will be installed:"
[15:06] <d3xter> TopGear, same for "mplayer -vo xv dvdnav:// ../"?
[15:06] <mahngiel> bastic_raZor: a prgm i want, wishes to install kommander-kde and a few other kde based apps
[15:06] <TopGear> same error
[15:06] <grkblood1> im thinking about attempting to capture HD from my televsion and record on my PC. my diretv box has hdmi, does anyone know of any video cards with hdmi inputs that are compatible with ubntu?
[15:06] <jenda> I should add to what I described above, that the computer otherwise manages all these applications smoothly. There are no performance issues, with the exception of teh above I/O freeze.
[15:06] <bastid_raZor> mahngiel: those extra packages are called dependencies. you need those.
[15:07] <superboki> mahngiel: those are dependancies, wont work without this
[15:07] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, however this wifi problem is a bit mysterious, it worked without any problem o karmic, so I guess changing the kernel might solve it
[15:07] <mahngiel> bastid_raZor, superboki: i read that quanta workes with gnome?
[15:08] <mahngiel> bastid_raZor, superboki: why would it depend on kde db's? hm.
[15:08] <bastid_raZor> mahngiel: works with does not mean it does not require kde dependencies
[15:08] <superboki> mahngiel: apt-cache search quanta
[15:08] <chazco> Hi... my motherboard can supposedly support surround sound using the mic/in/out sockets... any ideas on getting this to work with 9.10?
[15:08] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: possibly, makes sense
[15:08] <bastid_raZor> mahngiel: k3b works with gnome, but require a large collection of kde libs
[15:08] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, according to this (http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/WLAN/Karten#Edimax) USB wifi chipset is Ralink RT3070 ID 7392:7711
[15:08] <bastid_raZor> !info quanta
[15:08] <TopGear> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d9599bb9
[15:09] <mahngiel> bastid_raZor: gotcha. Just hate to bog down the HDD with crap i won't use.  thanks gents.
[15:09] <coolcat> hi, I am trying to use the mail program to send e-mails to my gmail account, why they do not get there?
[15:09] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: yes but thats not the same wifi chip is it
[15:09] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, is there any guide how to stuff 2.6.31 kernel into hardy?
[15:09] <bastid_raZor> mahngiel: not a problem, good lcuk.
[15:09] <superboki> coolcat: you didnt setup your machine as mail server/relay
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: your is an RTL-8139
[15:10] <jota> che nadie habla aca???
[15:10] <jota> no entiendo nada de esto
[15:10] <jota> para que sirve en si
[15:10] <jota> ???
[15:10] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, could it be, that RTL-8139 is for wired connection?
[15:10] <Myrtti> !es | jota
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: you will need to install karmic, 2.6.31 is a karmic kernel, unless you compile your own
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: oh so it is
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: then run: lspci; lsusb
[15:11] <coolcat> superboki, do I have to sut up a mail server to be able to send e-mails to other machines?
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: websearch for the lines which identify the device
[15:11] <superboki> coolcat: you are on your own, i dont give any mail related suggestions or help, someone else may
[15:11] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, lsusb gives this: Bus 004 Device 002: ID 7392:7711
[15:11] <superboki> *might
[15:12] <TopGear> No ideas anymore?
[15:12] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, I do not want to install karmic as it was unable to produce any sound with that rather junkyard laptop
[15:12] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, (I had a long sleepless night with that)
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1347123&highlight=7392:7711
[15:12] <Joris_> scunizi: I reinstalled Ubuntu (9.10, 32-bit) and imported the backupped MySQL tables, could the reconfiguration of the tuner cards using mythtv-setup solve my interference problem?
[15:13] <shane2peru> is there a graphics card brand that is working with opensource?
[15:13] <d3xter> TopGear, you're in the VIDEO_TS Folder, right?
[15:13] <TopGear> yeah
[15:13] <d3xter> TopGear, what about "mplayer -vo xv dvdnav:// *"
[15:14] <memet> okay
[15:14] <memet> xubuntu should be faster than windows xp correct?
[15:14] <TopGear> That works, but there's no menu
[15:14] <TopGear> for ff, rr, next chapter, etc
[15:15] <pavel_> ActionParsnip, thank you very much, I think the frined will have to wait a bit until I get to his machine, then I will perhpas bother you again :)
[15:15] <memet> I'm trying to get apturl to work properly through FF
[15:15] <ActionParsnip> pavel_: try a newer kernel, may work out of the box
[15:16] <d3xter> TopGear, you could use "!" and "@" to seek to the beginning of the next/previous chapter
[15:16] <memet> at least now I can switch between apps without closing them
[15:16] <TopGear> thnx
[15:16] <TopGear> but i prefer vlc
[15:17] <d3xter> TopGear, any error message when you start vlc from the terminal
[15:17] <d3xter> when it exits
[15:17] <TopGear> what do you mean? just "vlc" in the terminal?
[15:17] <d3xter> TopGear, right
[15:18] <shane2peru> nvidia, ATI, GForce?  I know that ATI is not good with Linux, any of the others highly recommendable?
[15:18] <d3xter> shane2peru,
[15:18] <memet> you'd think xfce + xubuntu would outpace windows
[15:18] <TopGear> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d5871ef38
[15:18] <memet> it actually seems a little slower
[15:18] <d3xter> you're going to buy a new one in the near future?
[15:19] <d3xter> TopGear, what about "cvlc"?
[15:19] <shane2peru> d3xter, possible, I just want to be aware, and not get caught in the a similar ATI disaster that I have now
[15:19] <jibadeeha> is firefox easy to remove from ubuntu or does it break a lot of stuff?
[15:20] <superboki> jibadeeha: shouldnt break anything
[15:20] <TopGear> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d2f6aff0c
[15:20] <d3xter> shane2peru, well the open-source ati driver is evolving :)
[15:20] <TopGear> there's no VLC
[15:21] <d3xter> TopGear, you mean no window?
[15:21] <superboki> TopGear: there should be vlc, if you installed one that is
[15:21] <TopGear> yes
[15:21] <TopGear> no windows
[15:21] <superboki> vlc <- small letters
[15:21] <d3xter> superboki, vlc fails to play a dvd, thats why we're trying to use cvlc ;)
[15:21] <shane2peru> d3xter, well, I'm a wholehearted Linux user for a few years now, and my ATI experience has told me it will be the last ATI I will ever buy, unless something drastically changes, I have had about 5 months of torture trying to get ATI to work properly
[15:22] <superboki> d3xter: right
[15:23] <d3xter> TopGear, what does "cvlc *" say?
[15:23] <d3xter> shane2peru, have you heard about gallium3D?
[15:23] <jibadeeha> okay thanks superboki - just done it and so far so good
[15:23] <alankila> shane2peru: in practice nvidia's closed driver has always worked for me, and almost none of the ati drivers, open or closed, have ever worked that well
[15:23] <flyback> thx guys for setting the default of xchat2 to auto get dcc files, some little scumball tried to send me rather disgusting pornographic sounding material, luckily it was asking for a directory and I just cancelled the whole desktop session because there were too many windows to answer
[15:24] <shane2peru> d3xter, nope, can't say that I have
[15:24] <flyback> really really FAIL
[15:24] <alankila> but the latest experience I've had with "radeon" against x1250 has been decentish... the display shuts down if I close laptop lid and doesn't activate, so that's the largest bug I got, but I just don't touch the lid.
[15:24] <flyback> make sure next build of ubuntu dcc is set to NOT auto get
[15:24] <alankila> (ridiculous. I'm not suspending the machine, it just doesn't work even that much.
[15:24] <shane2peru> alankila, I have never dealt with ATI before this, and probably wont again, if I wasn't a firm linux user I would have left, but I really hate windows
[15:24] <d3xter> shane2peru, this will be a revolution in 3D acceleration under Linux :)
[15:24] <macman_> so what do i need to extract / backup encrypted dvd ?
[15:25] <d3xter> shane2peru, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallium3D
[15:25] <macman_> i already have libdvdcss and libdvdread
[15:25] <d3xter> ati people are working hard on creating a OSS-ati driver for gallium
[15:25] <bastid_raZor> flyback: auto accept would have put it in a directory without asking.
[15:25] <flyback> it was on auto acceept then ask for directroy
[15:25] <alankila> the revolution that fixes everything is always behind the corner. I bet they said the same under communism.
[15:25] <shane2peru> d3xter, I'm fixing to go back and give the OS drivers a try for my ATI card, hopefully that will help a lot, and solve my problems
[15:26] <d3xter> that will solve most of the problems of opensource-drivers, but it will take some time, until it gets into ubuntu and other distributions
[15:26] <TopGear> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/db3d9053
[15:26] <d3xter> shane2peru, which ati card to do you have?
[15:26] <alankila> historically illiterate as my comparison is, and wildly inappropriate too.
[15:26] <flyback> I had about 100+ windows asking for directory when I woke up the morning
[15:26] <flyback> so I just killed the whole session
[15:26] <shane2peru> d3xter, I have tried several distros and some drastic solutions to make this laptop usable, I have ATI Radeon HD3100
[15:27] <bastid_raZor> flyback: maybe you shouldn't hang out in malicious channels.
[15:27] <alankila> HD. Too new. The radeonhd driver is still crap, I bet. :-/
[15:27] <flyback> uh dude
[15:27] <flyback> someone came in with a bot
[15:27] <flyback> STUPID CANUCK
[15:27] <flyback> into a legit channel
[15:27] <FloodBot3> flyback: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:27] <thiebaude> !caps
[15:27] <shane2peru> alankila, yes, that was the whole problem very new hardware
[15:27] <macode> hey, in my Compaq Mini 702 EG the wireless isnt working? what to do?
[15:27] <flyback> and did a dcc send flood
[15:27] <flyback> anyways I gotta head out to the doc
[15:28] <flyback> not that mad just saying you guys need to consider making sure it defaults to off
[15:28] <flyback> next build
[15:28] <Myrtti> flyback: this is the support channel, not the dev channel
[15:28] <d3xter> shane2peru, hd3xx is r500, right?
[15:28] <flyback> ok
[15:28] <flyback> what's the devel channel
[15:29] <shane2peru> d3xter, umm, not sure, but it would be hd3xxx
[15:30] <shane2peru> d3xter, that Gallium3d looks interesting, I would be interested in testing it out
[15:31] <sacarlson> wow 1269 people get's bigger each time I come
[15:31] <sacarlson> what can we do for you all today?
[15:31] <d3xter> shane2peru, yes me too :) but its still under heavy development :-S
[15:31] <JosueArevalo2> hola
[15:31] <d3xter> shane2peru, http://www.x.org/wiki/GalliumStatus
[15:32] <shane2peru> d3xter, if you only knew how many times my laptop has overheated, it is still under heavy developtment. :)
[15:32] <d3xter> shane2peru, hd3xxx is r600 :)
[15:33] <shane2peru> d3xter, ok, that is news to me, I don't know about this r600 stuff
[15:33] <TopGear> d3xter, Any idea?
[15:34] <d3xter> TopGear, not really. it looks like the data is corrupted or encrypted :-S
[15:34] <d3xter> shane2peru, here you've got the feature status of radeon and radeon hd for r600: http://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature; http://www.x.org/wiki/radeonhd:feature
[15:35] <d3xter> it should work ootb but dont expect any 3d acceleration ^^
[15:35] <sacarlson> today I tried to get my system with no disk to boot with pxelinux and failed.  some kind of a problem with NFS mount
[15:35] <sacarlson> any body have a kernel that will boot with nfs with pxelinux?
[15:36] <d3xter> shane2peru, do you use 9.10?
[15:36] <shane2peru> d3xter, I will have to keep my eye on that stuff,
[15:36] <shane2peru> yep
[15:36] <shane2peru> d3xter, 9.10 yes.
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> !pxe
[15:36] <Leemp> I am having permissions issues with an external hard drive (specifically, MediaTomb can't read it). How can i resolve this?
[15:36] <d3xter> shane2peru, if you want KMS, then you'll have to use a newer kernel with the radeon driver
[15:36] <Leemp> Note that mediatomb is launched on boot, as root (to my knowledge)
[15:36] <sacarlson> thanks ActionParsnip
[15:37] <memet> okay, I can't figure out why ubuntu is running so slow
[15:37] <memet> I thought it's performance was going to be superior to windows
[15:37] <shane2peru> d3xter, KMS?  I just want a laptop I can run processes on without overheating it. :)

[15:38] <memet> I mean why is it accessing my hdd all the time
[15:38] <thiebaude> !es
[15:38] <d3xter> shane2peru, does fglrx work?
[15:38] <memet> maybe I should just reinstall xp
[15:39] <shane2peru> d3xter, well, I currently have the proprietary drivers installed, and can actually watch a short video without it overheating, but it always runs hot, 90C at idle
[15:39] <shane2peru> d3xter, I'm about to purge all the propietary stuff and give the OS drivers a shot again
[15:40] <shane2peru> d3xter, last time I used open source drivers, I couldn't even watch a short video, it would overheat and shutdown
[15:40] <d3xter> shane2peru, when was the last time you've tested the open source drivers?
[15:40] <shane2peru> d3xter, been a while I quit using my laptop, and used my desktop
[15:40] <alankila> shane2peru: your system has serious issues if it dies under use. Might be worth it to look into that.
[15:41] <d3xter> shane2peru, oh ok, then give the opensource drivers a try :)
[15:41] <shane2peru> d3xter, and a power surge killed the main board of the desktop, I'm back to the laptop
[15:41] <memet> tips on what could be killing performance in xubuntu?
[15:41] <shane2peru> d3xter, will do
[15:41] <emmy> do any of you have a scanner or all-in-one-printer (the scanner part is what's important) that runs without problems on ubuntu?
[15:41] <shane2peru> alankila, yes, it was practically un-usable, tried Fedora, Debian, hmm, and half a dozen others, nothing worked,
[15:41] <memet> every time I switch a window or right click on the desktop, it chugs and chugs
[15:42] <sacarlson> emmy I never got my scanner to work with ubuntu
[15:42] <memet> and the refresh is *slow*
[15:42] <shane2peru> d3xter, ok, thanks for the info, much appreciated.
[15:42] <emmy> sacarlson, yep that's bad news
[15:42]  * shane2peru runs off to purge the system of ATI drivers and install OS drivers
[15:42] <sacarlson> emmy It's an old one maybe the new ones work
[15:42] <memet> since I'm new to ubuntu I'm not sure how to verify if things are working as they should
[15:42] <d3xter> shane2peru, you're welcome :) and tell me you're experiences with the OS drivers ;)
[15:43] <sacarlson> emmy oh and I never tried it with ubuntu 9.X
[15:43] <shane2peru> d3xter, will do
[15:43] <Leemp> How can i figure out which "partition" an external hard drive is? I am trying to change permissions of my external hard drive with PySDM, and it doesn't see my external hard drive.
[15:43] <d3xter> thanks
[15:43] <Leemp> (Even though it's mounted, and being used.)
[15:43]  * TopGear hates the problems with VLC
[15:43] <memet> ugh
[15:43] <sacarlson> emmy what I do is run windows in virtual box to get my scans
[15:43] <bastid_raZor> Leemp: sudo fdisk -l   will show you all drives/partitions connected
[15:43] <memet> this sucks
[15:44] <mka> Leemp, "sudo fdisk -l" and "df -h" (if mounted)
[15:44] <DomeDan> hal9000
[15:44] <DomeDan> ops, wrongchatt
[15:45] <kabayan> anybody knows about gdm2?
[15:45] <thiebaude> !gdm2
[15:45] <Leemp> Thanks. Now, to change permissions with PySDM, if i "configure this device" is this going to harm my data at all?
[15:45] <om26er> !test
[15:46] <llutz> Leemp: what filesystem on disk?
[15:46] <Leemp> I *do not* want to format my hard drives. Rather, simply change permissions of them so MediaTomb can access them
[15:46] <Leemp> llutz: NTFS
[15:46] <Leemp> (Unfortunately)
[15:46] <mka> Leemp, you cannot change permissions on NTFS via ubuntu
[15:46] <llutz> Leemp: look for ntfs-3g, changing permissions on non-unix fs won't work
[15:46] <mka> Leemp, you can make a umask when mounting
[15:47] <llutz> !ntfs-3g  > Leemp
[15:47] <sacarlson> leemp wow bummer never had that problem
[15:47] <Leemp> mka: Thats actually what i ment, i read that changing the umask via PySDM will solve my issues
[15:47] <sacarlson> leemp I try to stay with fat32
[15:48] <mka> Leemp, "sudo mount /dev/sd?? mountpunt -o umask=0022"
[15:48] <Leemp> sacarlson: If i could, i'd switch to Ext*, but i've got more data on the two drives than anywhere else heh
[15:49] <mka> sacarlson, isn't fat32 old(er) news?
[15:49] <sacarlson> leemp never heard of an aplication that would change format without damage
[15:49] <om26er_> is there any problem with irc today?
[15:49] <sacarlson> mka ya but still works for what I need in windiws
[15:50] <mka> sacarlson, but NTFS works in windows as well and has no 4GB file size limit
[15:50] <sacarlson> mka well I don't put big files there
[15:50] <mka> sacarlson, and you can encrypt files in NTFS
[15:51] <Leemp> sacarlson: Thats what i mean, i can't get the data off of them because i don't have anywhere to put it that is big enough to handle it. :o
[15:51] <sacarlson> I don't do much of anything anymore in windows,  just my scan's and some printing
[15:51] <Leemp> mka: Do you suggest doing that instead of PySDM?
[15:52] <mka> Leemp, I don't know PySDM and I don't know what exactly do you want to do
[15:52] <shane2peru> d3xter, is the opensource the libgl1-mesa-* stuff?  Is this guide outdated??  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
[15:52] <sacarlson> leemp well what I did today was clean my disk of all duplicate stuff and ended up with 50% more space
[15:52] <mka> sacarlson, wow!
[15:52] <Leemp> mka: Simply let MediaTomb's daemon read my external hard drives :/
[15:52] <sacarlson> leemp maybe if you clean you can make space and move it
[15:52] <Leemp> mka: No other programs have issues with my hard drives.
[15:52] <shane2peru> alankila, actually as it turns out I did install the proprietary drivers with debs, so , that was an easy purge.
[15:53] <simmerz> hi. any reason why gedit won't automatically syntax highlight .rb (Ruby) files?
[15:53] <mka> Leemp, sorry, don't even have an idea what MediaTomb is (the name sounds horrific, by the way)
[15:53] <shane2peru> d3xter, hey a quick search turns up xserver-xorg-video-ati  is that it?
[15:54] <Leemp> mka: It's an opensource program to stream media to your PS3 (and others, i believe)
[15:54] <FiReSTaRT> simmerz: did you select highlighting ruby? view, highlight mode, scripts, ruby?
[15:54] <chazco> Hi... my motherboard can supposedly support surround sound using the mic/in/out sockets... any ideas on getting this to work with 9.10? There isn't a suitable profile showing in the volume control...
[15:55] <simmerz> FiReSTaRT, I shouldn't have to do it manually every time I open a file
[15:55] <NManoogian> I'm installing XP on a partition with Ubuntu already installed, how can I get GRUB to "rescan" and find all of my operating systems?
[15:55] <sacarlson> mka leemp oh ya and I deleted all those porns I was bord of.  that gave me another 10%
[15:56] <Leemp> sacarlson: :P. Nah, for my it's just ripped movies and music heh
[15:56] <bastid_raZor> !fixgrub | NManoogian
[15:56] <i0x71> anyone know how to enable auto login not the first time after boot but incase if gnome-session has crashed etc
[15:56] <ice-nine> How painful is the upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10?
[15:56] <FiReSTaRT> simmerz: if it's not doing it automatically, that's your only option using gedit.. there are other editors out there
[15:56] <sacarlson> leemp ya but some of the music I found was backed up
[15:56] <NManoogian> Thanks guys
[15:56]  * FiReSTaRT out
[15:56] <Leemp> sacarlson: This is my backup. :D
[15:57] <mka> sacarlson, too much information! my kids are on this channel!
[15:57] <simmerz> FiReSTaRT, it did it automatically before I reinstalled karmic on my machine...
[15:57] <sacarlson> mka sorry
[15:57] <om26er_> ice-nine, works fine for some and some get into problems but i prefer clean install
[15:58] <ice-nine> om26er, I usually go clean install but I have this machine setup quite the way I like it and was thinking I'll try the upgrade before a clean install.
[15:58] <Kasztan> ello all
[15:58] <voytech> Is this a right channel to ask about Ubuntu One service ?
[15:59] <abhi_> hello
[15:59] <om26er_> voytech, i think its #ubuntuone
[15:59] <voytech> thank you
[15:59] <i0x71> damn doesnt anybody here know anything ?
[15:59] <i0x71> anyone know how to enable auto login not the first time after boot but incase if gnome-session has crashed etc
[16:00] <sacarlson> iox71 ya me
[16:00] <sacarlson> iox71 but you need to adk
[16:00] <sacarlson> ask
[16:00] <i0x71> heres the question again
[16:00] <i0x71> anyone know how to enable auto login not the first time after boot but incase if gnome-session has crashed etc
[16:00] <om26er_> !repeat | i0x71
[16:00] <i0x71> i could probably replace the startup gdm binary
[16:01] <_Narc_> Hey Folks, sorry to repeat again but anyone experienced an almost completely non-functioning left-click after updating Karmic these days ? I disabled Compiz effect, Gnome-Do but I still can't focus or click buttons or anything on windows. Thanks for your help.
[16:01] <sacarlson> Iox71 I have setup for no login
[16:01] <i0x71> i sure did its kinda hard to put the issue in google
[16:01] <i0x71> sacarlson, hows that
[16:01] <monkey_mouse> hi, i have a radeon 9550 and i'm having an issue with the proprietary drivers, they are working fine for the moment but if i log out ubuntu goes into the safe graphics and i have to install them again, any ideas?
[16:01] <sacarlson> iox71 I would suggest you setup a backup account
[16:02] <Joris_> scunizi: I found that my old recordings have interference too, so it has nothing to do with my tuner configuration; any ideas?
[16:02] <sacarlson> iox71 you want to boot without login?
[16:02] <i0x71> sacarlson, what i am doing is running xbmc as session, but problem is if it crashes or user exits it returns me to login screen even thou auto login and timed login are enabled
[16:02] <sacarlson> that's what I do but what it sounds like you need is a backup account if one fails
[16:03] <abhi_> i hav a question
[16:03] <i0x71> sacarlson, now what i want to be able to do is if it crashes or exits reload itself
[16:03] <om26er_> !question | abhi_
[16:03] <mka> i0x71, you want to make automatic log in?
[16:03] <sacarlson> iox71 xbmc?  not sure what that is
[16:04] <i0x71> mka, no that is enabled i want to automaticaly relogin after session running exits or crashes
[16:04] <i0x71> sacarlson, it does not matter it would be same process if it would be gnome-session
[16:04] <sacarlson> iox71 from cron?
[16:04] <i0x71> one solution that i can figure so far is replacing the login screen (gdm) with xbmc
[16:05] <i0x71> sacarlson, cron would have to perhaps check if xbmc is running that is one solution
[16:05] <mka> i0x71, there used to be an option in gdmsetup that you should check so that you relog in after crashing
[16:05] <abhi_> i hav kmformat installed in ubuntu 9.10, is there any way to add a submenu for usb device (like- format to) in nautilus to format it with kmformat?
[16:05] <i0x71> but i noticed they got rid of the old login setup, i did checkout the custom.conf but it only has autologin and timed login
[16:06] <sacarlson> iox71 your not present but some remote is looking at a screen?
[16:06] <i0x71> sacarlson, just a really NOT computer savvy person
[16:06] <abhi_> i mean right click--->format to
[16:06] <shane2peru> d3xter, well, the opensource drivers seem to be about the same as the proprietary drivers, idles at about 90C, and 47 seconds into a news video, and seems to be keeping it under 95C, better than before
[16:06] <i0x71> mka, any clues ?
[16:07] <d3xter> shane2peru, so video playback now works?
[16:07] <om26er_> abhi_, nautilus do have "format"
[16:07] <shane2peru> d3xter, well, video playback always worked, just overheated it before
[16:07] <d3xter> ah nice :)
[16:08] <d3xter> compiz and 2D acceleratin works too?
[16:08] <om26er_> abhi_, by right clicking if you are using karmic?
[16:08] <shane2peru> d3xter, yes, it is certainly improved over before
[16:08] <shane2peru> d3xter, hmm, not sure
[16:08] <i0x71> this is my problem here<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[16:08] <sacarlson> iox71 the ubuntu crashes and pushes you out of login?  What aplication would cause that?
[16:08] <abhi_> om26er, yes i'm in karmic
[16:09] <i0x71> sacarlson, it has not yet, but i am doing it in case it does, so i can avoid phone calls and trying to get the person to enter password over the phone
[16:09] <mka> i0x71, I checked it up, it seemed to be not there in these newer versions of ubuntu. But I remember my system crashing all the time and unable to change something as GDM was reloging in all the time. It was the times of Dapper
[16:09] <shane2peru> d3xter, glxgears comes up, tried to enable desktop effects, and didn't work. :)
[16:10] <shane2peru> all, while playing the video, didn't go over 95C. :)
[16:10] <d3xter> shane2peru, thats not good :) so you'll have to wait for gallium to arrive
[16:10] <i0x71> anyone know if it would be possible to replace /usr/sbin/gdm with something else, if thats the login screen ?
[16:10] <shane2peru> d3xter, I can live without desktop effects
[16:10] <shane2peru> d3xter, so long as it doesn't overheat on me just watching a short video
[16:10] <sacarlson> iox71 sounds like it works as expected.  as long as you don't logout
[16:11] <shane2peru> d3xter, news clips, etc,
[16:11] <sacarlson> iox71 I don't see a problem there
[16:11] <i0x71> sacarlson, exactly as long as xbmc doesnt crash which is 30% chance
[16:11] <victor__> hola, como puedo eliminar programas instalados con wine¿? (exactamente hablo del juego SPORE, que en realidad va fatal en linux :S)
[16:11] <shane2peru> d3xter, thanks again for the info, I will keep my eye on the gallium
[16:11] <[[thufir]]> how do I clean the apt-get cached binaries?
[16:11] <llutz> apt-get clean
[16:11] <d3xter> shane2peru, np :)
[16:11] <sacarlson> iox71 oh ok if you logout and it fails then you can't log back in?
[16:11] <shane2peru> [[thufir]], sudo apt-get clean
[16:12] <justin_> Hi, have you tried chrome browser?
[16:12] <[[thufir]]> llutz: thanks
[16:13] <om26er_> !who | justin_
[16:13] <sacarlson> iox71 on my system that auto logs in at boot if I logout I still need to log back in
[16:13] <Leemp> What is the difference between a program launched from init.d vs one manually launched? I have a mediaserver that works with my external hard drives if i launch it myself, but the daemon, launched from init.d, doesn't.
[16:13] <victor__> how can i delete programs with wine?
[16:13] <theyCallMeJohnny> is there a way to hide the lost+found folder on an ext4 partition?
[16:13] <eltume> which should I use to compress my files .lzma or tar.lzma and why?
[16:14] <i0x71> sacarlson, that is my problem, i want it to relogin if i logout
[16:14] <justin_> ubottu: I just try to find someone who's interested in that topic
[16:14] <macman_> question .. im ripping this movie right and  its stuck at 89% ... there a way to blank it or overwrite it so it contiunes ?
[16:14] <d3xter> eltume, you should use tar.lzma, because tar puts all of your files into one file and then encrypt's it
[16:14] <sacarlson> iox71 I don't have a solution for that except don't logout
[16:14] <d3xter> lzma can only encrypt 1 file
[16:14] <sacarlson> iox71 or reboot?
[16:14] <eltume> thank you
[16:14] <maco> d3xter: lzma doesnt encrypt
[16:15] <maco> d3xter: it compresses
[16:15] <i0x71> do anyone know which binary is the login screen in 9.10 ?
[16:15] <d3xter> maco thats what i mean, sry ^^
[16:15] <d3xter> eltume, lzma compresses, not encrypts ;)
[16:15] <eltume> btw what's encrypt?
[16:15] <eltume> makes it require a password?
[16:15] <om26er_> OMG!
[16:15] <sacarlson> iox71 maybe make it so you only root can log out
[16:16] <eltume> makes it only accesible on this computer?
[16:16] <maco> eltume: the password thing
[16:16] <jtaji> Leemp: in init.d, you must have a proper init script for it, which responds to start, stop, restart, etc...
[16:16] <maco> eltume: well a key and a password, really
[16:16] <eltume> ok
[16:17] <Leemp> jtaji: Does all of that run from root? Because a program from init.d doesn't have rights to read my external hard drive
[16:17] <eltume> how come an irc client is not installed by default on ubuntu
[16:17] <eltume> ?
[16:17] <eltume> It is for almost all other distros!
[16:17] <om26er_> eltume, empathy support irc
[16:17] <LewisDre4m> Hello, please help before I set fire to my computer and to myself. Here I am yet again trying to do a simple task on Ubuntu and it's been made dificult. I want to rip a CD with Sound Juicer, so I do . . . But its 128kbps quality. I go into change it go through prefrences and go to mp3 go to edit and instead of what any sane person would expect to see eg. drop down menu with bit rates I have GSTREAMER: audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! lame name=en
[16:17]  * Ov3rf10w brb
[16:17] <jtaji> Leemp: root yes
[16:17] <eltume> oh
[16:18] <mikealeonetti> in ubuntu 9.10 when I run dpkg-reconfigure slapd it never asks me to enter a password. so when I go to do an ldapmodify with no password it gives me errors. does it set a default password?
[16:18] <zoke> How do I tell the upgrade manager to use certain mirrors ?
[16:19] <jtaji> zoke: you can change the mirror in Software Sources
[16:19] <LewisDre4m> Hello, please help before I set fire to my computer and to myself. Here I am yet again trying to do a simple task on Ubuntu and it's been made dificult. I want to rip a CD with Sound Juicer, so I do . . . But its 128kbps quality.

[16:20] <om26er_> LewisDre4m, don't repeat if any1 know the solution you will sure be answered
[16:20] <sacarlson> lewisDre4m I'm not sure but seem like k3b does most of the CD burn stuf
[16:20] <vonadhz> hey
[16:20] <LewisDre4m> Has no one in this room EVER used sound juicer to rip a cd above 128 quality>
[16:20] <vonadhz> I am trying to install a bin
[16:20] <vonadhz> and when i type
[16:20] <vonadhz> chmod bin name
[16:20] <vonadhz> in the terminal
[16:20] <sacarlson> lewisDra4m I have some time ago but foret
[16:20] <vonadhz> it cant do it
[16:21] <jtaji> LewisDre4m: I've used Grip mostly... but what you are looking for is to change the parameters to lame
[16:21] <BLOODCLAW> I have a question; when I use the "open with" list to open a file, there are many superfluous options. How would I get rid of them?
[16:21] <jtaji> LewisDre4m: lame is the mp3 encoder
[16:21] <om26er_> !enter | vonadhz
[16:21] <vonadhz> how do I install my bin file?
[16:22] <LewisDre4m> jtaji: Why don't I have a thing to alter bitrate here? GSTREAMER: audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! lame name=enc mode=0 vbr-quality=7 ! id3v2mux
[16:22] <sacarlson> lewisdrea4m ya now I remember you take an audio cd and convert to mp3
[16:22] <llutz> vonadhz: sh ./file.bin
[16:22] <vonadhz> does anyone know how to intall a bin on ubuntu?
[16:22] <LjL> vonadhz: what is it?
[16:22] <vonadhz> okay
[16:22] <vonadhz> its java install
[16:22] <LjL> !java | vonadhz
[16:22] <LjL> vonadhz: don't install that bin file. get it from the repositories instead.
[16:22] <llutz> vonadhz: or: chmod +x file.bin && ./file.bin
[16:22] <LewisDre4m> Does anyone know what I have to change in this . . . GSTREAMER: audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! lame name=enc mode=0 vbr-quality=7 ! id3v2mux . Now If in that text I could to get higher bitrate when I rip cd's?
[16:22] <vonadhz> oh
[16:23] <vonadhz> LjL: where can i get that?
[16:23] <superboki> LewisDre4m: the command denotes a vbr preset, so if your mp3s are 128, then there is something seriously wrong
[16:23] <LjL> vonadhz: from the standard ubuntu repositories. please read the page i just sent you
[16:23] <jtaji> LewisDre4m: it's right there, vbr-quality=7, so it's not 128kbps, but actually variable bit rate... I usually use vbr-quality of 2
[16:23] <jtaji> LewisDre4m: http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?title=Lame
[16:23] <NiX007> Hello, can someone tell me if is posible to install qdvdauthor 2.0 on ubuntu 8.10 ?
[16:23] <vonadhz> k
[16:23] <LewisDre4m> sorry VBR is 6 I copyed wrong
[16:24] <sacarlson> lewisDre4m your converting audio CD's to mp3?  Seems like apt-get install k3b  might be all you need
[16:24] <ZeeousS> Hi to all
[16:24] <BLOODCLAW> I have a question; when I use the "open with" list to open a file, there are many superfluous options. How would I get rid of them?
[16:24] <superboki> VBR stands for variable bit rate, with other words: its a sort of a quality-based preset, not a bitrate one
[16:24] <sacarlson> lewisDre4m but I havn't had audio CD's for some time so I could be wrong
[16:24] <LewisDre4m> superboki: Oh I see. So how would I change VBR to 0 and have 192 bitrate?
[16:25] <llutz> sacarlson: why should one install k3b (with all its kde-depensd) for only cd-ripping?
[16:25] <LewisDre4m> I cannot believe no one in here has ever wanted to rip a cd above 128 k quality
[16:25] <sacarlson> llutz it's all the CD tool you need for most anything
[16:26] <NiX007> i love above 128bit
[16:26] <mka> LewisDre4m, sudo apt-get install abcde
[16:26] <superboki> LewisDre4m: read this http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=18091
[16:26] <LewisDre4m> 128 k is for tards no doubt about it
[16:26] <sacarlson> llutz must take about 3 min to download?
[16:26] <LewisDre4m> mka: just having a look
[16:26] <mka> LewisDre4m, abcde can be configured to use cdparanoia to rip and lame to encode the mp3s
[16:26] <llutz> sacarlson: overkill, bloat-app
[16:26] <superboki> quality 2 should be around the bitrates you are after
[16:26] <EagleScreen> 128k will be always enought
[16:26] <BLOODCLAW> no one knows?
[16:27] <llutz> EagleScreen: for top100 maybe
[16:27] <NiX007> anyone knows how to install qdvd 2.0 on ubuntu 8?
[16:27] <sacarlson> llutz I love it for CD stuf
[16:27] <gafir> hello guys, I need some help installing flash player on ubuntu 9.10 64-bit. I keep installing Flash player with the installer, it seems to install it correctly, however, my firefox never seems to have picked it, and asks me to install missing plugin. When I click to install it again, it tells me it's already installed. My guess is that it's not installing it in the right directory for Firefox 3.5, but somewhere else. Do
[16:27] <mka> LewisDre4m, or alternatively, use your whatever ripper to rip to WAV format and use lame to encode each wave yourself to whatever bitrate of mp3 you want
[16:28] <EagleScreen> flash and 64bits architecture do not always works as well as it should
[16:28] <PulTec> garfir   should be a non issue
[16:28] <_Narc_> Hey Folks, sorry to repeat again but anyone experienced an almost completely non-functioning left-click after updating Karmic these days ? I disabled Compiz effect, Gnome-Do but I still can't focus or click buttons or anything on windows. I'm using a Desktop, not a laptop. Xev is not registering any event when I'm clicking. The mouse works on Windows OS. Thanks for your help.
[16:28] <superboki> LewisDre4m: and the full story is here http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?title=LAME
[16:28] <PulTec> im running a live disk and its will do it
[16:28] <gafir> PulTec: what do you mean a non-issue?
[16:28] <LewisDre4m> mka:  That went straight over my head. I'm just gonna take a look at abcde
[16:28] <LewisDre4m> superboki: ok man ty for all your help
[16:28] <llutz> LewisDre4m: or ripperx
[16:28] <gafir> PulTec: it seems Firefox never sees the plugin whatsoever
[16:29] <LewisDre4m> llutz: took a look at ripper x and you cant change bit rate
[16:29] <PulTec> hum  thats a different matter
[16:29] <superboki> wt.., what has a gui to do with lame settings?
[16:29] <llutz> LewisDre4m: sure you can
[16:29] <PulTec> let me see here
[16:29] <BLOODCLAW> I have a question; when I use the "open with" list to open a file, there are many superfluous options. How would I get rid of them?
[16:29] <superboki> they will be wrong with any gui,  if you dont set them right
[16:29] <llutz> LewisDre4m: vbr, 320k works fine
[16:29] <LewisDre4m> mka: I installed abcde but where is it? I cant see it in menu
[16:30] <NiX007> anyone knows how to install qdvdauthor 2.0 on ubuntu 8?
[16:30] <Maletor> http://www.google.com/search?q=update+kernel+to+2.6.33+ubuntu returns nothing, How do I update my kernel to 2.6.33?
[16:30] <gafir> PulTec: how can I know where my user files are located for firefox?
[16:30] <PulTec> http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
[16:30] <superboki> with other words, read http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?title=LAME (to understand what VBR, ABR and CBR are...)
[16:30] <mka> LewisDre4m, it's there. "gksudo /etc/abcde.conf" to change settings
[16:30] <PulTec> input info there
[16:30] <om26er> Maletor, its not final yet
[16:30] <om26er> Maletor, only rc2
[16:30] <Maletor> om26er: don't care i want rc2
[16:30] <sacarlson> LewisDre4m when that happen I look at synaptic and look at the package and see what files it installed in /bin
[16:30] <Maletor> om26er: edge it up
[16:31] <om26er> Maletor, at your own risk?
[16:31] <om26er> Maletor, http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.33-rc2/
[16:31] <LewisDre4m> llutz: Oh . . . Yes your right however the reason I couldn't use it is it doesn't seem to see my cd driver. Other wise that seemed like the most perfect sofrtware
[16:31] <Maletor> I need it for lm-sensors
[16:31] <BLOODCLAW> No one can answer my question?
[16:32] <Maletor> my k10 fan won't work on my amd 64 processor - actually a lot of things don't work with the 64 bit linux distro and my new hardware
[16:32] <macman_> hey all i noticed ubuntu dosen't have the filestat command .. can i downloaded it from the internet and if so will it work ?
[16:32] <NiX007> same here my question has no answer yet
[16:32] <om26er> BLOODCLAW, answers.ubuntu.com
[16:32] <mka> LewisDre4m, set LAMEOPTS='--cbr -b 128' , that will give you 128kbps CBR mp3 audio. set OUTPUTTYPE=mp3 for a default output format to be mp3

[16:35] <mka> BLOODCLAW, what is your question?
[16:35] <protojay_> om26er, and i need it to stay on
[16:35] <baz_work> is there an alternate way to get GPG keys if you are behind a company firewall/proxy and port 11371 (or whatever it is) is blocked?
[16:35] <mka> PulTec, what security?
[16:35] <gafir> when you do: sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 -- in what directory is this being installed?
[16:35] <om26er> protojay, no there
[16:35] <LewisDre4m> hang on . . . Ripper x is seeing the other drive
[16:35] <PulTec> mka,   correct
[16:35] <om26er> protojay, ya its not there
[16:35] <NiX007> can i have qdvdauthor 2.0 on ubuntu 8? without upgrading to new ubuntu?
[16:36] <protojay_> om26er, where is it/
[16:36] <LewisDre4m> Man I don't suppose anyone knows where in the menu I can tell it to use the other drive? as this optical drive is totally trucked
[16:36] <om26er> gafir, the executeable should be in /usr/bin/
[16:36] <perlsyntax> Is there  a ppa for perl 5.10.1?
[16:36] <om26er> gafir, but its not windows
[16:36] <bastid_raZor> gafir: all the config/bookmarks ..etc are in /home/gafir/.mozilla  and the actual binary is probably in /usr/bin/
[16:36] <gafir> om26er: thanks, and the user files? ok bastid_raZor answered my question thanks
[16:37] <perlsyntax> Does anyone know of a ppa for perl 5.10.1?
[16:37] <perlsyntax> i hope there is one.
[16:37] <PulTec> hehe
[16:37] <sacarlson> NiX007 it seem that I only see rpm packages for that aplication
[16:37] <llutz> LewisDre4m: ripperx doesn't seem to have any option to change the drive :(
[16:38] <sacarlson> Nix007 is the problem that you can't convert that?
[16:38] <gafir> ok here is what i'm getting when i launch firefox: LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so [/usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32]
[16:38] <gafir> I dunno what an ELF class is though
[16:38] <DarKnesS_WolF> is tehre any bug in gnome-keyring, or gnome-screensaver which might give the attacker the chance to echo the user password over network ??
[16:39] <bastid_raZor> gafir: which version of ubuntu are you using?
[16:39] <llutz> LewisDre4m: it has, hidden, see faq 3 http://ripperx.sourceforge.net/faq.html

[16:40] <jigal> hello i still  have problems with my sound
[16:40] <gafir> bastid_raZor: doesn't wrong ELF class: ELF CLASS32 means that it's trying to use the 32-bit version?
[16:40] <gM> my mouse seems to be going to the top-right corner of the screen, and it comes out from there after a while, but it seems to be annoying sometimes, any body got clue?
[16:40] <LewisDre4m> llutz: your on fire man!

[16:43] <khalfan> gM- as i said, it sounds more like a hw issue
[16:43] <om26er> gM, if its a laser mouse try to put it on a mousepad
[16:43] <sacarlson> khalfan ya I thought it only suports 32bit
[16:43] <khalfan> i thought they support 64-bit now
[16:43] <laeg> !.7z
[16:43] <sacarlson> khalfan wow that would be cool if it did
[16:43] <khalfan> i looked into the web....some say it does some say it doesn't
[16:44] <iceroot> khalfan: sacarlson 64bit can only be used if you are using hardware virtualisation (amd-v or vt-x on the cpu)
[16:44] <grinder> Hello folks, anyone here knows which is the license of the PulseAudio System-wide GUI equalizer from psyke83? (ubuntu forums)
[16:44] <evergrenn> can not connect scanner Parallel not USBin ubuntu?
[16:44] <khalfan> so i need to set my cpu right on the host machine first?
[16:44] <sacarlson> kholfan iceroot I run it from a 64bit but only tried 32bit sims
[16:44] <iceroot> khalfan: first you have to look if your cpu support hardware virtualisation
[16:45] <gM> my usb drive used to be working fine, automounted and could browse the files, suddenly it stopped working the regular way, I am not able to mount manually either.
[16:45] <khalfan> i'm 90% sure that it does

[16:45] <sacarlson> iceroot so what is that? another module?
[16:45] <iceroot> khalfan: or maybe cat /proc/cpuinfo
[16:46] <iceroot> sacarlson: no
[16:46] <khalfan> ok it does
[16:46] <khalfan> 100%
[16:46] <Dr_Willis> gM:  Tell the channel #1 - what filesystem. and #2 how are you trying to mount manually, what command, and what error messages
[16:46] <iceroot> khalfan: then look if it is enabled in vbox
[16:46] <perlsyntax> Is there a ppa for perl 5.10.1????
[16:46] <baz_work> How do you get GPG keys if your company firewall/proxy blocks oort 11371?

[16:48] <blakkheim> !repeat | gM
[16:48] <Dr_Willis> gM:  use  sudo mount /dev/sdb#   not sdb
[16:49] <dreamy> what are the best music apps for linux ? anyone helping :) ?

[16:49] <perlsyntax> be nice if there is a ppa for it

[16:50] <llutz> gM ls -l /dev/sdb1
[16:50] <Dr_Willis> gM:  if you have a /dev/sdb and no /dev/sdb1 then somthing has gone bad  in a big way. see what 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb' says
[16:50] <om26er> gM, ok.. install gparted and partition this flash from gparted
[16:50] <dreamy> blakkheim:  ok.. ty anyway
[16:50] <baz_work> sacarlson, i do, but isn't setting up vpn quite involved? also does vpn use a non-standard port too that may be blocked?
[16:51] <gM> gparted did not recognise sdb altogether.
[16:51] <Dr_Willis> gM:  this usb drive was working and has data on it. and was working yesterday? or recently.
[16:51] <olvap> Dr_Willis: i cant read it because is to big.
[16:51] <mka> gM: if you have sdb and no sdb? then your usb drive does not have any filesystem
[16:51] <Dr_Willis> gM:  hmm.. I would double check the output of dmesg
[16:51] <sacarlson> baz_work you can setup vpn on any port you want
[16:51] <Dr_Willis> olvap:  what are you trying to 'read' from it? just view the contents?    less bigfilename.txt   should work

[16:56] <blakkheim> BLOODCLAW: i think you may be thinking of this too much from a windows point of view. linux doesn't just fill up with crap like windows. it stays clean unless you download things and forget about them.

[16:58] <baz_work> sacarlson, I found that you can actually import GPG keys through "Accessories" -> "Passwords And Encryption Keys" or in terminal "gpg --import gpg-file" - all you need are the keys in text format - I think I will ssh into an outside box, get the text keys and import them...
[16:58] <gM> looks like my filesystem got corrupted.
[16:58] <gM> thanks @mka, and other friends.

[17:05] <baz_work> llutz, excuse my ignorance, but how can i tell apt-key to use the tunnel? I know how with the browser...
[17:05] <qcjn2> blakkheim, i don't know what is gdm
[17:05] <tony_> i connect my sansa fuse with computer nothing happens
[17:05] <nastas> baz_work: his question was :[19:02] <tony_> how i make nautilus show up
[17:05] <blakkheim> qcjn2: gnome display manager. it's the graphical login daemon.
[17:05] <llutz> baz_work: i'm not sure if apt-tools can use socks-proxy. in doubt, use tsocks
[17:05] <jigal> Hello everyone I have a problem that my sound doesn't work on my sony vaio since the latest update of ubuntu. Any idea's what could be the problem?  Here is my dump http://pastebin.ca/1729377

[17:06] <nastas> tony_: in pastebin
[17:06] <nastas> baz_work: ok
[17:06] <Dr_Willis> evergrenn:  you may need to manually load the proper modules for a parrallel port scanner.. and thatsz about all i know on the topic
[17:06] <om26er> evergrenn, what is the model of the scanner
[17:07] <qcjn2> hi, Dr_Willis :)
[17:07] <Snossages> oh, parallel port scanner?
[17:07] <thevishy> hi guys
[17:07] <LewisDre4m> llutz: DUDE>? You there? I need that link to the FAQ you gave me for ripperx
[17:07] <evergrenn> know if you can connect a scanner in parallel
[17:07] <evergrenn> know if you can connect a scanner in parallel
[17:07] <Dr_Willis> evergrenn:  you may need to manually load the proper modules for a parrallel port scanner.. and thatsz about all i know on the topic
[17:07] <llutz> LewisDre4m:  http://ripperx.sourceforge.net/faq.html
[17:07] <LewisDre4m> LEGEND!
[17:07] <baz_work> tony_, do other usb devices show up?
[17:08] <Snossages> evergrenn: yes, it's possible but ubuntu cannot autodetect parallel port scanners, so you must manually set up the module or any other driver components.
[17:08] <om26er> evergrenn, might help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ScanningHowTo
[17:08] <tales_2010> Hello. I'm trying to add a VPN here. But ubuntu 9.10 does not allow me to add a new VPN. The add button is disabled.. anyone knows if I need to install a package ?
[17:08] <baz_work> tales_2010, yes you do, are you using openvpn?
[17:08] <tales_2010> nope
[17:08] <nascentmind> hi. whenever i try to run an OS in virtual box it tells me to install virtualbox-ose-source package. I reinstall it and then it works. After that when I reboot i get the same problem. how can if fix it?
[17:09] <evergrenn> dr_Willisbut there are only drivers for Win XP
[17:09] <evergrenn> but there are only drivers for Win XP
[17:09] <baz_work> tales_2010, whichever it is you will need to add the plugin, try software center and search for your vpn - which is it out of curiosity?
[17:09] <Dr_Willis> evergrenn:   Just because you say taht.. dosetn mean theres not any for it in linux
[17:09] <thevishy> nascentmind, i think you shud enable it in autostart
[17:09] <Dr_Willis> !sane | evergrenn
[17:09] <MontelEdwards> !fingerprint
[17:09] <MontelEdwards> !imbm
[17:09] <MontelEdwards> !ibm
[17:09] <thevishy> i am not very sure about it though
[17:09] <Dr_Willis> evergrenn:  if theres no linux drivers  for it.. then it wont work..
[17:09] <nascentmind> thevishy, where should i restart?
[17:09] <om26er> !botabuse | MontelEdwards
[17:09] <Dr_Willis> evergrenn:  there may exist some old drivers for it.. or nor..
[17:10] <datzy1> Hello, I am having some install issues.  I just installed 9.10 witht the alternate cd, when I boot, I only see shell login, and read only.
[17:10] <MontelEdwards> Does the /wc
[17:10] <tales_2010> baz_work, I'm trying to use that vpn that appears on the top panel..
[17:10] <thevishy> there is something called autostart , i think u need to ad that virtual box thingy to it
[17:10] <thevishy> the application i mean , but i am not really sure
[17:10] <jigal> Hello everyone I have a problem that my sound doesn't work on my sony vaio since the latest update of ubuntu. Any idea's what could be the problem? Here is my dump http://pastebin.ca/1729377
[17:10] <gui7> ello
[17:10] <gui7> is there any way i can set a video file as my webcam?
[17:10] <MontelEdwards> Does the fingerprint readers on the thinkpads work with Ubuntu
[17:10] <thevishy> !autostart
[17:10] <gui7> so that the video file acts as if it were my webcam
[17:10] <baz_work> tales_2010, oh i know, but what vpn is the server that you are trying to connect to running? is it windows server?
[17:11] <thevishy> nascentmind, what i mean is whatever the application that is brought by the page , just add to auto start thats what I think
[17:11] <MontelEdwards> gui7: iirc there already is at /dev/video0
[17:11] <thevishy> but I am not sure about virtual box really
[17:11] <nastas> datzy1: no x environment?
[17:11] <evergrenn> old acer scan prisa 320p
[17:11] <evergrenn> old acer scan prisa 320p
[17:11] <MontelEdwards> gui7: do you want to stream that to a file? if so look into ffserver
[17:11] <om26er> evergrenn, why does your reply comes twice?
[17:11] <nascentmind> thevishy, hmm you might be right. I am seeing a virtualbox-ose in init.d . may be its not started.
[17:11] <lizzardman> ok, noob question: in the ubuntu install wizard, what does "installation size" exacly mean?
[17:11] <datzy1> nastas: no, Also a strange flashing will sometimes occure, where I cannot type
[17:12] <thevishy> datzy1, i faced the issue - check for your grub menu does it say noasci etc  remove all that
[17:12] <evergrenn> I do not know who to give it
[17:12] <DasEi> lizzardman: the space the sys will need for itself, the softwaare
[17:12] <datzy1> nastas: thevishy I'll try
[17:12] <gui7> MontelEdwards, what i want to do is have a video file acting as my webcam, so that even if i dont have a webcam it'll play the video file as if it were my webcam- like #emulating" my webcam
[17:12] <tales_2010> baz_work, I'm not sure, it's a FreeBSD machine
[17:12] <lizzardman> DasEi: why do I need to chose it?
[17:12] <thevishy> datzy1, most probably u run an old comp and u used text based installation with noapi etc options , just edit all that and try !
[17:13] <gui7> MontelEdwards, is /dev/video0 where my webcam streams to?
[17:13] <DasEi> lizzardman: you don't need, you can, f.i. if you want to save disk space for other purposes
[17:13] <lizzardman> oh, ok
[17:13] <baz_work> tales_2010, do a search for "vpn" in the software center and then install all vpn clients that describe themselves as extensions for network manager
[17:14] <datzy1> thevishy: when I try to load grub menu, I get mountall main process terminated with status 1 General error mounting file systems A maintenance shell will now be started
[17:14] <evergrenn> Dr_Willis, old acer scan prisa 320p
[17:14] <datzy1> then I get flashing where I cannot input
[17:14] <legend2440> evergrenn: according to this the 320p is unsupported  http://www.sane-project.org/sane-mfgs.html#Z-BENQ
[17:14] <jigal> Hello everyone I have a problem that my sound doesn't work on my sony vaio since the latest update of ubuntu. Any idea's what could be the problem? Here is my dump http://pastebin.ca/1729377
[17:14] <Dr_Willis> evergrenn:  meams very little to me. Check google and the sane homepage to see if its supported at all
[17:14] <baz_work> tales_2010, its prolly openvpn
[17:14] <thevishy> datzy1, from where are you trying this ?
[17:14] <datzy1> thevishy: from my desk
[17:15] <erUSUL> jigal: does installing linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic-generic and rebooting help?
[17:15]  * om26er smacks his head
[17:15] <datzy1> I need real help here, somehting is ammis
[17:15] <thevishy> datzy1, i mean do u use the same system or different one ? what i said is that u reboot - go to grub and edit the parameters see if u have options like noapi etc on
[17:15] <thevishy> datzy1, just type in startx and see what comes first
[17:15] <datzy1> thevishy: oh, I'm on another system for irc
[17:16] <nastas> jigal: did you check in alsamixer if something is mute?
[17:16] <datzy1> thevishy: I can't do anything, it's flahsing and I can't input
[17:16] <thevishy> ohh , what if u reboot ?
[17:16] <datzy1> same
[17:16] <evergrenn> Dr_Willis, xsane Unsupported  there are only drivers for Win XP
[17:16] <DasEi> datzy1: sounds like a fs-problem to me, had to cope the same today, after a foreign ext-driver ruined my raid
[17:16] <thevishy> i does it reach the GRUB menu atleast ?
[17:16] <dreamy> how do i close a proceess ?
[17:16] <tony_> need help my sansa fuse wont connect to ubuntu 9.10
[17:16] <datzy1> DasEi: I think so... what can I do?
[17:16] <evergrenn> legend2440. thanks
[17:17] <legend2440> evergrenn: your welcome
[17:17] <thevishy> ok seems like conflicts then , maye just check bios and remove any external devices u connected now and try
[17:17] <gui7> i've got LOTS of black-and-white pages i need to scan i've got an hp psc 1350 scanner) - i just need them to be numbered (in the filename) - what's the easiest/quickest way of doing this?
[17:17] <DasEi> datzy1: boot a live cd and run fs-checks
[17:17] <zonie> phxheat
[17:17] <nastas> tony_: you didn't show us the output os lsusb command
[17:17] <datzy1> DasEi:  I can't boot live cd, it will start flashing
[17:17] <Dr_Willis> evergrenn:  looks like its time to get a new scanner if the xsane homepage dosent mention the device
[17:17] <datzy1> DasEi: I had to use alternate to install
[17:17] <thevishy> can u atlease see the BIOS datzy1
[17:17] <datzy1> thevishy:  yes
[17:17] <datzy1> bios is fine
[17:18] <DasEi> datzy1: you machine won't boot a live cd (desktop) ?
[17:18] <datzy1> nope
[17:18] <thevishy> i am sure there will be some way to go to Bios and then give CD as ur primary boot device
[17:18] <tony_> the number is 0781:74c3
[17:18] <nastas> tony_: still there?
[17:18] <tony_> yea
[17:18] <DasEi> datzy1: and you don't have another os it ? usb-boot supported ?
[17:18] <evergrenn> Dr_Willis. I do not understand much Italian
[17:18] <nastas> tony_: what number
[17:19] <tony_> for the lsusb
[17:19] <gui7> i've got LOTS of black-and-white pages i need to scan i've got an hp psc 1350 scanner) - i just need them to be numbered (in the filename) - what's the easiest/quickest way of doing this?
[17:19] <datzy1> DasEi: unfourtunatly, not with me
[17:19] <thevishy> does all this happen after the OS startes loading or while grub starts loading ?
[17:19] <Dr_Willis> evergrenn:  if the xsane homepage does not mention the scanner.. or says its not supported.. then its not supported.
[17:19] <datzy1> thevishy: both
[17:19] <gui7> basically i need my settings to remain the same so all i've got to do is change the page in the scanner and press a button so its quick
[17:19] <Dr_Willis> evergrenn:  a lotof old scanners have no linux support
[17:19] <bullgard> What will take longer time to partition a 160 GB hard disk for Windows and Ubuntu: Gparted or cfdisk?
[17:19] <DasEi> datzy1: did you try to boot safemode ?
[17:19] <datzy1> thevishy: it will happen either way
[17:19] <dreamy> how can i find an applet for the   LAN animantion   incoming and oucoming  litttle lights
[17:19] <zonie> phxheat
[17:19] <thevishy> datzy1, even before grub ? then I think something problem with hardware ?
[17:19] <datzy1> DasEi: I can't get to safe mode, I can't get to grub menu
[17:19] <om26er> bullgard, both will do quickly
[17:20] <llutz> bullgard: cfdisk needs abt 5 seconds
[17:20] <om26er> bullgard, sorry gparted
[17:20] <datzy1> thevishy: I had 8.04 working just fine previously
[17:20] <nastas> tony_: in pastebin paste the output of fdisk -l command and lsusb command
[17:20] <thevishy> datzy1, is there any other OS in it ?
[17:20] <nastas> tony_: do you know how to do it?
[17:20] <DasEi> datzy1: you should, when grub starts "Grub loading", press <Esc>
[17:20] <tony_> no
[17:20] <datzy1> thevishy: I wiped 8.04 for 9.10
[17:21] <gui7> what's the easiest way to scan hundreds of pages in ubuntu? i'd like to not have extra steps/buttons presses involved besides the essential scan button
[17:21] <datzy1> DasEi: I'll try..
[17:21] <evergrenn> Dr_Willis.  I thought that some guru could, because for win xp there are idrivers
[17:21] <thevishy> thats fine , and so its the only OS u have ?
[17:21] <llutz> gui7: scanimage
[17:21] <legend2440> datzy1: to get grub menu in karmic hold down the Shift key
[17:21] <Dr_Willis> evergrenn:  with that logic there wiould be drivers for everything...  and thats not true.
[17:21] <bullgard> om26er: I doubt your statement. GParted told me that it needs 3 hours and more.
[17:21] <thevishy> why cant u just try the LIVE CD by going to your bios and making the boot prefernce as CD ROM and then HARD DISK first ?
[17:22] <Dr_Willis> evergrenn:  i imagine theres no drivers for it for Vista or win7 either...
[17:22] <thevishy> datzy1, ^
[17:22] <datzy1> ok, thanks guys that;s what I was doing before
[17:22] <om26er> bullgard, well i myself am new to ubuntu so pardon me..
[17:22] <bullgard> llutz: And why does GParted tell me that in needs > 3 hours?
[17:22] <llutz> bullgard: idk, i never used gparted
[17:22] <datzy1> oh, got grub. I hit shift escape before
[17:22] <evergrenn> dr_willis.  exact
[17:22] <datzy1> so, recovery mode?
[17:23] <gui7> llutz, scanimage seems quite complicated and plus i'd liek a GUI
[17:23] <DasEi> datzy1: y
[17:23] <bullgard> om26er, llutz Thank you for commenting.
[17:23] <tony_> nastas
[17:23] <llutz> bullgard: thats why i talked only about cfdisk :)
[17:23] <sacarlson> llutz bullgard: I just used it with a small 80 gig drive and only takes about 30 secounds to format and partition a drive
[17:23] <datzy1> resume?
[17:24] <DasEi> datzy1: netroot
[17:24] <datzy1> k
[17:24] <tony_> need help my sansa fuse will not connect to my ubuntu 9.10
[17:24] <bullgard> sacarlson: What is "it"?
[17:24] <om26er> !repeat | tony_
[17:24] <datzy1> DasEi: ok, no flashing yet
[17:24] <jamescarr> hey, how can I find out what process has bound a port on ubuntu? I'm trying to run an app that binds to port 1095 but that port is already bound
[17:24] <datzy1> I should log in and do what?
[17:24] <sacarlson> bullgard: I set the drive with gparted to ext3
[17:24] <jamescarr> I'd like to kill whatever process is suing it
[17:24] <DasEi> datzy1: good sign, so partiton table still intact
[17:24] <llutz> bullgard: and btw, you asked for partitioning, not for creating a filesystem (which cfdisk won't do)
[17:25] <qcjn2> anyone have any idea how i can get to the graphic insterface ?
[17:25] <jigal> natas: only the external amplifier is on mute
[17:25] <DasEi> datzy1: sudo dhclient                                                         , got inet ?
[17:25] <sacarlson> bullgard I even changed it and still didn't take much time.  but I'm not sure what size drive you are working with
[17:25] <om26er> tony_, give this link a try http://www.micahcarrick.com/05-21-2008/sansa-view-ubuntu.html
[17:25] <bullgard> llutz: Ah! That is an important point of view. --  Thank you for pointing me at that.
[17:25] <datzy1> DasEi: got address
[17:25] <datzy1> before actuallyu
[17:25] <bullgard> sacarlson: 136.7 GB.
[17:26] <DasEi> datzy1: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[17:26] <sacarlson> bullgard: that can't take long
[17:26] <bullgard> sacarlson: But it took > 3 hours.
[17:27] <sacarlson> bullgard: maybe it found an error and needed to really format
[17:27] <thevishy> does anyone know how to install emerald ?
[17:27] <jamescarr> fuser -n tcp 1099
[17:27] <thevishy> !emerald
[17:27] <bullgard> sacarlson: Yes it found an error.

[17:28] <thevishy> have you tried emerald Dr_Willis
[17:28] <DasEi> datzy1: give url from trml here
[17:28] <sacarlson> bullgard: maybe partition it smaller and see if it will so some parts faster
[17:28] <Dr_Willis> thevishy:  yes.. and its basically dead.. :)
[17:28] <DasEi> tony_: what's this sansa fuse ?
[17:28] <Dr_Willis> thevishy:  not worth messing with really.

[17:29] <Dr_Willis> gnomed kdes and emerald
[17:29] <thevishy> along with ?
[17:29] <sacarlson> bullgard: break it into smaller partitions and format each and see if they will format at a normal speed.

[17:30] <thevishy> okk
[17:30] <sacarlson> bullgard: or trash it

[17:32] <datzy1> that is good news
[17:32] <ald85> how?
[17:33] <tony_> i tryed everything to get connect
[17:33] <sacarlson> bullgard: well I have more money than time so I would go with the partition smaller and find working parts
[17:33] <bullgard> sacarlson: I do not have reason to put it there.
[17:33] <MrKeuner> hello, how can I backup a bootable usb disk? Can I create an iso?

[17:36] <sacarlson> ald85 make sure the files on your usb are correct.  there are alot of bad usb flash on the market now.

[17:37] <ald85> they're correct i checked em on another laptop
[17:37] <sacarlson> ald85 oh sorry flash player
[17:37] <datzy1> DasEi:  how do I force this?
[17:37] <mattwynne> I'm running 9,10 with a linksys wireless USB stick. It keeps dropping the connection. Any ideas how I can debug it?
[17:37] <datzy1> also, how do I check packages? DasEi
[17:38] <ald85> so since i cant make flash player work i wanna downgrade and see if it works cuz i need it
[17:38] <mattwynne> when I ping the machine from another one I get 'Host is down'
[17:38] <tony_> omg, i need help with it
[17:38] <tony_> anyone can help me with my sansa fuse problem
[17:38] <canthus13> mattwynne:  Have you tested the wireless in windows?
[17:38] <DasEi> datzy1: sudo fdisk - l                                                                    , just one drive /dev/sda  ?
[17:39] <tony_> i did that
[17:39] <DasEi> datzy1: sudo fdisk -l                                                                    , just one drive /dev/sda  ?(^tyopo*)
[17:39] <baz> tony_, i have heard zero details concering your fuse not working, such as did it connect with anything else, any other versions of linux etc???
[17:39] <datzy1> DasEi: there is another drive too
[17:39] <datzy1> sdb1
[17:39] <mattwynne> canthus13: no, I don't have a windows machine actually
[17:39] <datzy1> or sdb
[17:39] <DasEi> tony_: you want to connect a mp3 player to ubuntu then ?
[17:39] <mattwynne> one ubuntu box and a few macbooks
[17:39] <canthus13> mattwynne: Ah.  Do you know the exact chipset for that linksys adapter?
[17:39] <om26er> tony_, ubuntuforums.org   and https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu are good places to ask
[17:40] <spirple> So, are there any game developers, or anyone who makes flash movies and needs electronic music of some sort?
[17:40] <DasEi> datzy1: which is the ubu one ?
[17:40] <Casey> do i use mailx with ssmtp to send mail?
[17:40] <datzy1> DasEi: sda
[17:40] <tony_> i did that i plug in nothing works
[17:40] <llutz> Casey: you can
[17:40] <mattwynne> canthus13 not off-hand. How would I find out? google it? or could they be different for the same model?
[17:40] <om26er> DasEi, google it
[17:40] <tony_> i change setting in player plug it in nothing works
[17:40] <Casey> i need some help set it up
[17:40] <canthus13> mattwynne: Google it.
[17:40] <canthus13> mattwynne: The same model should always have the same chipset.
[17:41] <DasEi> om26er: nick miss ?
[17:41] <llutz> Casey: read man-page
[17:41] <canthus13> mattwynne: Which model is it?
[17:41] <dreamy> how can i get best info about "linux" and "music" ... is there any musician here ?
[17:41] <canthus13> dreamy: What sort of info are you looking for?
[17:41] <DasEi> datzy1: sudo tune2fs -c 1 /dev/sda
[17:41] <datzy1> k
[17:41] <om26er> DasEi, this was a suggestion to "what is ubuntuone"
[17:42] <Dekkard> linux.. and music.. see also jack..jokosher..
[17:42] <DasEi> om26er: nick miss ?
[17:42] <sacarlson> dreamy: I played with some cool music stuf in ubuntu but last I tried in 8.04 some was broken
[17:42] <dreamy> canthus13:  quality.. info about some apps :S
[17:42] <om26er> DasEi, no, i thought you were asking what is ubuntu one..
[17:42] <DasEi> tony_: so got your player with 1 gb, got to mount it then
[17:42] <fanti> hello! why does the package visualvm depends on openjdk even if sun's java is already installed ?
[17:42] <gui7> damn xsane is sooo slow :-/
[17:42] <canthus13> dreamy: It's..... OK.  Could be a lot better, though.  YOu might look into Ubuntu Studio for starters.
[17:42] <canthus13> dreamy: It's a remix geared toward multimedia creation.
[17:43] <datzy1> DasEi: Bad majic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda,  Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock
[17:43] <DasEi> om26er: no I'm actually I'm doing tony and da  right now
[17:43] <dreamy> canthus13:  what about a good variaty of app s?
[17:43] <sacarlson> dreamy I do use audacious to play all my music it works fine
[17:43] <DasEi> datzy1: aharrr
[17:43] <dreamy> canthus13:  ... could be bettter then the machintosh maybe?
[17:43] <canthus13> dreamy: It comes with quite a few apps installed.  For audio recording, audacity is a bit like cakewalk.
[17:43] <dreamy> ardour is what i use
[17:44] <canthus13> dreamy: Mmm.... It has the potential, but it's not quite there yet.  You can still get production-quality results, though.
[17:44] <sacarlson> dreamy but rosegarden is cool but not sure it's working for me now
[17:44] <dreamy> sacarlson: what is that app about?
[17:44] <mattwynne> canthus13: this one I think: http://www.amazon.com/Linksys-Wireless-G-Portable-Adapter-WUSB54GP-BP/dp/B0001DA93E (it's stuck around the back of the machine behind the sofa!)
[17:44] <datzy1> DasEi: something with ext4 and HDD firmware maybe?
[17:44] <sacarlson> dreamy rosegarden is like a studio recorder player synth
[17:44] <Casey> when i try to send mail i get
[17:44] <ald85> some help here please
[17:44] <Casey> send-mail: 553 5.1.0 server does not exist E2110
[17:44] <Casey> Can't send mail: sendmail process failed with error code 1
[17:45] <datzy1> DasEi: just a guess.. I don't know what else changed...
[17:45] <gui7> is there any way of making the preview window in xsane display the just-scanned image if i dont make a preview beforehand?
[17:45] <canthus13> mattwynne: Depends on the version, looks like.  You'd have to get a look at the adapter to find out the exact version.
[17:45] <llutz> Casey: you have to configure ssmtpd, not mailx
[17:46] <canthus13> mattwynne: lsusb will get you the usb ID of the adapter, tho.
[17:46] <DasEi> datzy1: so we are back to fs-check then ; the problem is e2fsck can easily damage a fs worse, when the hd is mounted , a  workaround is to have it mounted readonly, but that means altering grub's menu
[17:46] <nickh> Good Morning -- has anyone else besides me have issues running XCONSOLE with Ubuntu 9.10?
[17:46] <DasEi> tony_: open a terminal ..
[17:46] <canthus13> mattwynne: And you might be able to google the ID to find out the exact version of the adapter.
[17:46] <dreamy> sacarlson:  ok ill give it a try .. ty alot
[17:46] <datzy1> DasEi: I don't know...
[17:46] <sacarlson> DasEi you could boot with a live cd and run e2fsck
[17:47] <sacarlson> dreamy no problem
[17:47] <Casey> i need alittle help setting up ssmtp
[17:47] <DasEi> sacarlson: if we could, we had half a hour ago ;-)
[17:47] <nickh> XConsole won't run from a standard terminal, like it used to in 9.04, and when run as sudo, it will not output any system messages.
[17:48] <DasEi> tony_: open ?
[17:48] <spirple> any game developers here need music for anything? http://sites.google.com/site/bubbleslot/musicss/tinnitus.mp3 is something I'm working on atm
[17:48]  * datzy1 contemplates his debian netinstall image that has also been downloaded
[17:48] <DasEi> datzy1: also can use another cd, like knoppix, which boots on most computers
[17:49] <datzy1> DasEi: might have something like that sitting around
[17:49] <Casey> do i put my email in
[17:49] <Casey> # Where will the mail seem to come from?
[17:49] <Casey> #rewriteDomain=
[17:49] <gui7> is it normal for xsane to be this slow writing file to disk?
[17:49] <sacarlson> DasEi datzy1 ya or DSL that's only about 50meg might work too
[17:49] <baz> well i just tried running the browser only in its own workspace, no difference
[17:50] <DasEi> sacarlson: not sure if it brings fsck, (DSL)
[17:50] <canthus13> gui7: How big is the file?
[17:50] <sacarlson> DasEI: I'm not sure eather but fsck is almost standard at boot time
[17:51] <LuisGMarine> Hey guys quick question.  I installed ubuntu 9.10 on my second hdd.  Is there a way to install grub on the second hdd from a usb stick?
[17:51] <shafi> Hi, I update my ubuntu kramic and after a system reboot, I am getting this error message: "The default configuration for gnome power management have not installed correctly" any idea?
[17:51] <LuisGMarine> I don't want to see grub when I turn on the comuter, instead for me to manually pick to boot my second hdd
[17:51] <baz> this really sux, i just went through a battle for the last 2 days getting nvidia driver to work (wrong xorg.conf (thanks ubuntu) ) and a bcm4306 chipset which refuses to stay assoicated when using iwconfig, but works fine with network manager
[17:52] <sacarlson> LusGmarine: well you only need one grub unless you plan to remove one of them at some time
[17:52] <gui7> canthus13, about 38kb after being compressed into jpeg
[17:52] <datzy1> DasEi: I found a D.S.L> cd
[17:52] <gui7> canthus13, they're in bw
[17:52] <canthus13> gui7: then no. It shouldn't take that long.
[17:52] <llutz> Casey: there you put your domain (i.e. that-domain.local) in, if you have one. sent mail then appears as coming from<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[17:53] <DasEi> datzy1: live-able, terminal ? boot it, try man fsck
[17:53] <Casey> ok
[17:53] <Casey> ty
[17:53] <datzy1> k
[17:53] <zonie> phxheat
[17:53] <gui7> canthus13, it takes around 19 seconds for a single image
[17:53] <sacarlson> lusgmarine if you want to play with other systems you might want to try virtualbox and run under the first system
[17:53] <llutz> Casey: "man 5 ssmtp.conf"
[17:54] <grendal_prime> is there a linux equiv of battlechess 4000?

I´ve made a thread about it in german as well - here: http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/grand-theft-auto-san-andreas-howto/ -- more importantly though, here is the console output: http://pastebin.org/69417  -- Anybody here who can help me with this?
[17:55] <skrite> LuisGMarine, had to because i built a single board computer and it has no IDE or SATA
[17:55] <sacarlson> LuisGmarine: I tried but found the disk was counterfit and failed.  but it should work
[17:55] <DasEi> LuisGMarine: I did few times
[17:55] <Hilikus> whenever i open amarok or start playing a song or any sound in ubuntu i get a loud, short crackling noise. is this a known bug? anyone knows how to fix it?
[17:56] <sacarlson> luisGmarine: I did get DSL to run and install from flash disk
[17:56] <datzy1> DasEi: ok, man fsck
[17:56] <baz> arrrggghhhh, just when i thought i was done with all the hassles
[17:56] <LuisGMarine> is it the same as installing from a cd?
[17:56] <gui7> canthus13, are 19 seocnds normal for a scan in xsane?
[17:56] <LuisGMarine> I mean, I *could* burn a cd, but I'm bored
[17:56] <crash82> Hello, Anyone can give me a hand setting up a vpn connection over ipsec + l2tp ?
[17:56] <LuisGMarine> so I figured I'd install from a USB drive
[17:56] <DasEi> datzy1: in the terminal-utils ?
[17:56] <LuisGMarine> but I don't want to do it, if I'm going ot be suffering in the end
[17:56] <shafi> any idea?
[17:57] <baz> heh, when i tried to play a song in audacious it was set to pulseaudio, it just refused to play anything (no error message, nothing) my fix was to switch the output to alsa. try that!
[17:57] <FireTek> can someone give me some help with a error i keep getting on ubuntu 9.10

[18:01] <xiven> As in all the files in /usr/include just go into /usr/include directly? There are no sub-directories for each applications includes?
[18:01] <sacarlson> xiven you can look at the package in synaptic under properties and find out what files it adds at install
[18:01] <vonadhz> Hello
[18:01] <vonadhz> anyone
[18:01] <DasEi> datzy1: mount                                    , make sure sda isn't mounted
[18:01] <vonadhz> what does this error mean
[18:01] <Slart> FireTek: you might want to repeat your entire question instead of just going "anyone?" or similar
[18:01] <vonadhz> TypeError: expected string or buffer
[18:01] <FireTek> I just did
[18:02] <datzy1> DasEi: nope it's not
[18:02] <DasEi> datzy1: fdisk -l                           ,find out your linux partitions (boot and /)
[18:02] <vonadhz> ?
[18:02] <llutz> Casey: maybe you should read/learn at least some basics about mailservers before trying to run one. its a real complicated stuff, with lots of traps you can tap in. 1st read documentation for ssmtp
[18:02] <baz> its the second laptop that after using "hardware drivers" to install the dirver, it didnt work and i had to figure out another method, dosent anyone test this stuff? its terrible, it reminds of the old days with windoze
[18:02] <vonadhz> slart: do you know?
[18:02] <Slart> vonadhz: hard to say.. that error message wasn't very descriptive...
[18:03] <Slart> FireTek: yes.. you did.. after a while =)
[18:03] <vonadhz> should i tell you the entire log
[18:03] <Slart> vonadhz: try pastebinning it
[18:03] <DasEi> datzy1: like /dev/sda1  /dev/sda5  or whatever , if you had no spereate /boot, it's just /root
[18:03] <Slart> !pastebin | vonadhz
[18:03] <baz> people ask me about ubuntu, and i just tell them its basically like dealing with windows.  nothing works well
[18:03] <datzy1> DasEi: Boot /dev/hdb1
[18:03] <jiffe99> is there anyway to disable any cacheing on disk writes so that all write commands do not return until it is physically written to disk?
[18:03] <hudson> ??
[18:03] <baz> i think i just wipe this install and battle with debain again, like i did on my old laptop......
[18:03] <Hilikus> jiffe99: what about mounting the disk as sync ?
[18:04] <miha> jiffe99 if you want to be sure it is all written, try unmounting. you cant unmount while busy :D
[18:04] <datzy1> DasEi: looks hda1
[18:04] <datzy1> for boot
[18:04] <LuisGMarine> anybody here using banshee?
[18:04] <vonadhz> http://pastebin.com/de4eadf1
[18:04] <vonadhz> Slart:http://pastebin.com/de4eadf1
[18:04] <jiffe99> what I am trying to do is test SAN failover time
[18:04] <DasEi> datzy1: did you have a seperate /boot  ?
[18:04] <datzy1> DasEi: both have a * under boot
[18:04] <Slart> vonadhz: su-to-root ?? what is that?
[18:05] <vonadhz> this is the error http://pastebin.com/de4eadf1
[18:05] <vonadhz> wat?
[18:05] <vonadhz> Slart: what?
[18:05] <DasEi> datzy1: before you told sda is the ubu-hd, so hda in dsl
[18:05] <swapnil> can anybody help me how to activate wireless internet connection on ubuntu.
[18:05] <Casey> i not running a mail server i'm just tring to get this set up so i can get this script to send a email
[18:05] <vonadhz> Slart: idk thats what it says in the command
[18:05] <datzy1> DasEi: ok
[18:05] <llutz> Casey: therefor you need a running mailserver
[18:05] <miha> swapnil well you should see network manager tray icon.. click on available wireless network, enter key, and that is
[18:05] <miha> it
[18:05] <FireTek> can i get some help with this Error please.... http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m608fb14d
[18:05] <ted__> you just need to input ssd and wep info
[18:05] <DasEi> datzy1: man e2fsck             , there, too ?
[18:06] <Slart> vonadhz: wow.. it's a command.. installed by default.. never seen it before..
[18:06] <vonadhz> Slart: did you know what it is now?
[18:06] <vonadhz> Slart: ugg
[18:06] <Casey> i know somethings
[18:06] <swapnil> i have broadband connection with ethernet, which is  working fine on ubuntu but i want to activate it for wireless.
[18:06] <datzy1> DasEi: got a man page, but said before loading man page, this is nto a busy box application
[18:06] <Slart> vonadhz: from that it seems like it's a bug in the app..
[18:06] <vonadhz> Does any one know what this error is
[18:06] <swapnil> What need to do?
[18:06] <vonadhz> http://pastebin.com/de4eadf1
[18:06] <sacarlson> swapnil: what version of ubuntu?  you should be able to click on the double screen icon in the uper right to select what wireless network you want
[18:06] <Hilikus> whenever i open amarok or start playing a song or any sound in ubuntu i get a loud, short crackling noise. is this a known bug? anyone knows how to fix it?
[18:07] <vonadhz> slart: ye but it used to work
[18:07] <miha> swapnil if your wireless network card is recognized by kerknel, you just pick network and enter key (assuming dhcp on router)
[18:07] <xiven> Okay, thanks sacarison
[18:07] <xiven> I
[18:07] <miha> kernel
[18:07] <xiven> I'll take a look at that
[18:07] <miha> bah i cant type :(
[18:07] <macman_> currently im on gnome and want to install kde just in case i want to use it .. is there a way i can install kde but keep gnome as my main desktop ?
[18:07] <Slart> vonadhz: perhaps startupmanager was updated
[18:07] <canthus13> macman_: Sure.
[18:07] <DasEi> datzy1: let's try, I feel little scary using a - for me- seldom distro, concerning ext4 and possibly different arguments
[18:08] <sacarlson> swapnil: I also asume you have a wireless access point that you can see from your location
[18:08] <Slart> macman_: you can have KDE and gnome libraries running side by side.. ie run KDE apps while using the  gnome desktop
[18:08] <canthus13> macman_: I don't remember the package name off hand, but it's not hard.
[18:08] <swapnil> yes i have wireless access point and i using jonty .
[18:08] <DasEi> datzy1: e2fsck -p /dev/hda1
[18:08] <sacarlson> Slart: yes
[18:08] <FireTek> can i get some help with this Error please.... http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m608fb14d
[18:09] <Slart> sacarlson: huh?
[18:09] <vonadhz> Any one else
[18:09] <vonadhz> know
[18:09] <canthus13> macman_: I think you just sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop.  then you can choose your session from the login screen.
[18:09] <vonadhz> what this error may be
[18:09] <vonadhz> anyone?
[18:09] <vonadhz> http://pastebin.com/de4eadf1
[18:09] <FloodBot3> vonadhz: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:09] <sacarlson> Slart: I thought it was a question the answer was yes you can run kde and gonme libs
[18:09] <swapnil> But wireless network card on right hand side is not detected.
[18:09] <LuisGMarine> weird I can't find this "usb-creator.exe" inside the 8.04 release
[18:09] <canthus13> vonadhz: Whatever script you're running is expecting a different type of variable.
[18:09] <Slart> vonadhz: someone else has the same problem.. but in spanish http://www.ubuntu-es.org/?q=node/124102
[18:09] <swapnil> it detect only ethernet .
[18:10] <Slart> sacarlson: ahh.. ok.. thanks
[18:10] <vonadhz> lol me no comprende espanol
[18:10] <swapnil> Ethernet automatically .
[18:10] <vonadhz> canthus13: can i fix it?
[18:10] <datzy1> DasEi: says Filesystem has unsupported features while trying to open /dev/hda1
[18:10] <demon_D_MAN> Okay I sometimes have a problem with my sound;
[18:10] <demon_D_MAN> either internet sound is gone or either only the internet sound is working
[18:10] <demon_D_MAN> does someone had the same bug in the past?
[18:10] <nogger> Hombre, que pasa?
[18:10] <canthus13> vonadhz: Probably, but I wouldn't know how.  You'd need to talk to someone who programs in whatever language the bug is happening in.
[18:11] <datzy1> superblock could not be read
[18:11] <trism> FireTek: you need to give more information, what were you trying to do when you got that error? what program were you running? etc?
[18:11]  * canthus13 isn't a programmer. Sorry.
[18:11] <vonadhz> does anyone program here lol
[18:11] <Elive_user86_en> in what language?
[18:11] <demon_D_MAN> vonadhz yes I do why
[18:12] <datzy1> DasEi: could not be read, or does not describe a correct ext2
[18:12] <datzy1> filesystem
[18:12] <vonadhz> this language http://pastebin.com/de4eadf1
[18:12] <demon_D_MAN> python?
[18:12] <swapnil> sacarlson: Using jonty, and i think wireless network is not detected while ethernet connection is detected automatically.
[18:13] <snake> how can i put a live cd on my flash drive
[18:13] <vonadhz> demon_D_MAN: can you tell me what this error is http://pastebin.com/de4eadf1
[18:13] <DasEi> datzy1: there we are, ext2,max ext3 expected, not a good idea to try fsck without options then, your risk (and choice), or find  out if dsl supports ext3  least
[18:13] <Elive_user86_en> vonadhz, looks like your GUI is broken..
[18:13] <Elive_user86_en> try reinstallling?
[18:13] <LjL> snake: one way is to use unetbootin, http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[18:13] <swapnil> sacarlson: so according to me i need to set up my wireless network, but what is the procedure for that?
[18:14] <demon_D_MAN> vonadz you might need to reinstall your gui but can I see whole the code?
[18:14] <hamzaatova2> what can i do agaist script attacks in xchat?
[18:14] <snake> LjL: does that app come on linux?
[18:14] <vonadhz> Elive-user86_en: shit isnt that bad
[18:14] <hamzaatova2> i always see file saving prompt
[18:14] <vonadhz> demon_D_MAN: how can i do that?
[18:14] <LjL> snake: click the link and find out...?
[18:14] <demon_D_MAN> ? you are not the owner of the script
[18:14] <DasEi> hamzaatova2: lower it's ressources, jail in apparmor or such (chroot like)
[18:15] <sacarlson> swapnil: well do you have some kind of an access point or maybe your ADSL modem has one build in?
[18:15] <demon_D_MAN> Nobody had sound problems in the past?
[18:16] <sacarlson> swapnil: if not you need to go buy one and hook it up and then setup a name for it and that's about it
[18:16] <sacarlson> swapnil: plug it into your present ethernet conection if you have one
[18:17] <jaypur> i'm building a website, and it just looks really mess up on IE... and perfectly on firefox and chrome.... now what should i do hahaha?
[18:18] <sacarlson> jaypur: stop using IE?
[18:18] <DasEi> jaypur: asking ubuntu to develop ie ?
[18:19] <sacarlson> jaypur: you can setup php to detect if the user is IE and send them to another page that fits that browser
[18:19] <jaypur> DasEi, i hate IE, and i was thinking, this website is for a portifolio purpose... so what should i do if some uses IE and want to hire me ahahah
[18:19] <jaypur> i was thinking to get a message at index
[18:19] <jaypur> like
[18:19] <jaypur> you need to use firefox
[18:20] <demon_D_MAN> indeed
[18:20] <demon_D_MAN> that would be the solution
[18:20] <thekid> I installed a persistent ubuntu onto a flash drive now I can format the drive. any ideas?
[18:20] <demon_D_MAN> if it really looks nice in firefox/chrome  don't mess with the code
[18:20] <sacarlson> Jaypur: I've had sites tell me I had to have IE to work there so I had to fake them and send header to make them think I ran IE just to access them
[18:20] <swapnil> sacarlson: yaa i have one access point, which has ethernet as well as wireless connection point. THe wireless point is working fine for windows, but not for ubuntu.
[18:20] <DasEi> datzy1: so, you can-on you own risk- do : fsck /dev/hda1  but I'd rather check that ext 3 is supported from that call, testdik-runs are really -- time intensive
[18:21] <jaypur> HAHAHA sacarlson
[18:21] <demon_D_MAN> sacarlson: smart but do they still show up right?
[18:21] <sacarlson> swapnil: if it works for windows it should work for unbuntu.  is is encrypted?
[18:21] <sacarlson> demon_D_man yes they do
[18:21] <thekid> how do u force format a usb drive
[18:22] <sacarlson> thekid I think the command is dd
[18:22] <jaypur> sacarlson, i dont know if i should have a message like, use firefox...
[18:22] <demon_D_MAN> sacarlson: wth I don't understand those fools why do they only want ie
[18:22] <thekid> i tried dd and it says the drive is read only
[18:22] <DasEi> thekid: make sure drive isn't mounted, format with gparted
[18:22] <vonadhz> Hi
[18:22] <thekid> it is not mounted
[18:23] <demon_D_MAN> vonadzh: hi again
[18:23] <vonadhz> How come when I try to install a theme it says can not move directory over directory?
[18:23] <sacarlson> demon_d_man microsoft must pay them?
[18:23] <swapnil> sacarlson: yaa, but for windows its has its own installation CD, which helps to setup wireless network, but that installation is failed on ubuntu.
[18:23] <vonadhz> ?
[18:23] <demon_D_MAN> sacarlson: ah =D I just don't use microsoft products
[18:23] <DasEi> vonadhz: you tried to copy or move files around
[18:23] <grkblood1> whats a good video capture card that has an HD input
[18:23] <vonadhz> I didnt
[18:24] <dnivra> I hate to break up the IE debate guys but well it's OT. Head to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[18:24] <sacarlson> swapnil: encryped?
[18:24] <vonadhz> if i just click download
[18:24] <thekid> Any other ideas
[18:24] <vonadhz> and open with theme manager
[18:24] <vonadhz> it says that
[18:24] <swapnil> sacarlson: yes.
[18:24] <vonadhz> DasEi: howcome?
[18:24] <DasEi> vonadhz: or the installer tried
[18:24] <sacarlson> swapnil: just put the wep wap key number in and it should work
[18:24] <jaypur> i'm supposed to be a professional webdesigner lol
[18:24] <sacarlson> swapnil: do you know what the hex key number is?
[18:25] <swapnil> sacarlson: no,
[18:25] <thekid> How do you delete persistent ubuntu install from usb
[18:25] <sacarlson> swapnil: well you will have to get that number before ubuntu can work
[18:26] <DasEi> vonadhz: let's say you got a folder, containg 3 subfolders 1,2,3 , you then try to put 1,2,  into 3, doing it by mv /folder/*    /folder/F3  , then you won't move F3 into F3 , getting that error
[18:26] <datzy1> DasEi: swapped my graphics card, got login screen first try
[18:26] <vonadhz> DasEi: I see
[18:26] <vonadhz> DasEiL thanks i got it
[18:26] <sacarlson> swapnil: most routers have a browser login that you can set the wep key and find what it is
[18:26] <swapnil> sacarlson: Ok, so should i ask to my service provider for wep wap key number?
[18:27] <zonie> phxheat
[18:27] <sacarlson> swapnil: you should ask him what the default IP address and user name and password to login to your router
[18:27] <swapnil> sacarlson: yes, my ubuntu login is through web-browser.
[18:27] <arghh2d2> Does anybody have any tips or alternatives to using unetbootin?  I've had no luck with it so far.
[18:27] <DasEi> datzy1: it's somewhat strange, bad superblock won't have given you terminal with write-acces,  not sure what's on there
[18:28] <sacarlson> swapnil: then go to wifi control of the website of the router and set or check the wep key
[18:29] <sacarlson> swapnil: this is your personal router ADSL at your home?
[18:29] <datzy1> DasEi: I don't know either...
[18:29] <swapnil> sacarlson: yes, but provided by my service provider.
[18:29] <DasEi> datzy1: so you could log in again now ?
[18:30] <datzy1> DasEi: yea, GUI is working now
[18:30] <DasEi> *in regular desktop
[18:30] <sacarlson> swapnil: well if they setup the router then they should give you the hex key number
[18:30] <DasEi> datzy1: anyway, force fsck to do a check soon then
[18:30] <datzy1> DasEi: ok
[18:30] <swapnil> sacarlson: and they provide me username , password and MAC id .
[18:31] <DasEi> datzy1: sudo tune2fs -c 1 /dev/sda
[18:31] <sacarlson> swapnil: oh it's not encrypted it's just a login system
[18:31] <sacarlson> swapnil: so it sounds like it works
[18:31] <swapnil> sacarlson: with this information i am able to setup wireless connection on windows, but not on ubuntu. So i need hex key number as well.
[18:32] <sacarlson> swapnil:  if you can already login to the web server with ubuntu then it's not encrypted.
[18:33] <CShadowRun> xD
[18:33] <swapnil> sacarlson: Oh, got ur point. Yaa, i am able to login but through ethernet. Wanna to login through wireless connection.
[18:34] <mattwynne> guys where are the logs that tell me what happens when network manager tries to connect to a wireless connection?
[18:34] <sacarlson> swapnil: oh ok well you should be able to login on ethernet and find or change the wep key then
[18:34] <erUSUL> mattwynne: /var/log/syslog ?
[18:35] <swapnil> sacarlson: how to find that wep key
[18:35] <canthus13> mattwynne: cat /var/log/daemon.log | grep NetworkManager,
[18:35] <sacarlson> mattwynee: tries or does connect?  you can look at the dhcp logs
[18:35] <canthus13> err... no comma at the end of that.
[18:35] <datzy1> DasEi: guess it didn't like my nvidia 6600
[18:35] <sacarlson> mattwynee: dhcp leases
[18:36] <mattwynne> sacarlson: it looks like it tries and fails the DHCP
[18:36] <sacarlson> swapnil: what model route is it?
[18:36] <DasEi> datzy1: very unlikely
[18:37] <mattwynne> sacarlson: where do I find logs on the DHCP?
[18:37] <sacarlson> mattwynne: with no address recieved?
[18:37] <mattwynne> sacarlson: "DHCP transaction took too long, stopping it"
[18:37] <LuisGMarine> why you having trouble connecting to a wireless network?
[18:37] <LuisGMarine> because I am too, lol
[18:37] <tsuna27> so i removed the networkmonitor on my panel how do i get it back
[18:38] <datzy1> DasEi: Well, maybe made the diff between GUI and no GUI, guess there is still that fs issue
[18:38] <sacarlson> mattwynne: well if your dhcp service is from ubuntu then it would be at /var/lib/dhcp
[18:38] <swapnil> sacarlson: it its MM2211 wireless broadband model.
[18:38] <LuisGMarine> right-click the panel, and then "Add to panel " and look for network applet
[18:38] <dnivra> tsuna27: you mean Network Manager?
[18:38] <tsuna27> dnivra: the thing that shows the wireless network and what % strength
[18:38] <mattwynne> sacarlson: you mean the logs?
[18:39] <sacarlson> mattwynne: you can snoop the network and see what trafic is happening with wireshark to find what is happening
[18:39] <isolat3dsh33p> Q: Is there anyway to rename the ntfs drives?
[18:39] <LuisGMarine> tsuna27, read what I just said up top
[18:39] <dnivra> tsune27: ok. check out what LuisGMarine said.
[18:39] <i0x71> does anyone know what binary is the login screen ?
[18:39] <sacarlson> mattwynne: those are the leases on my system
[18:39] <mattwynne> sacarlson: there are files in there. would it help if I deleted them? are they dirty old files confusing things?
[18:39] <sacarlson> mattwynne: you dhcp might come from your router ADSL
[18:39] <erUSUL> isolat3dsh33p: label them ? maybe gparted can do it
[18:40] <mattwynne> LuisGMarine: what have you changed on your system?
[18:40] <LuisGMarine> mattwynne, nothing I'm rolling back to ubuntu 8.04
[18:40] <mattwynne> sacarlson: I'm really confused - my wireless has just totally stopped working. I upgraded the firmware on my router, but I've also done abour 3 weeks worth of system updates on ubuntu
[18:40] <LuisGMarine> I could see my wireless network, but it could never establish the connection
[18:40] <sacarlson> mattwynne: delete for what? won't help anything
[18:40] <LuisGMarine> brb
[18:41] <LuisGMarine> I'll let you know how it goes, I'm going to try and boot from a usb stick
[18:41] <DasEi> datzy1: think so, too but weird is still, that if you got a damaged superblock, it will be monter ro then, so no paste-install possible there, your syslog tells about 3ratelimits when gdm was running, the only fact about your fs is dsl - which I can't know- works so or else
[18:41] <mattwynne> right so I should try using grub to boot into the old kernel from before the updates
[18:41] <tsuna27> yeah it is not there the one that is the bars, i cant find it
[18:41] <sacarlson> mattwynne: well try boot a small DSL (dam small linux) or window or other system to isolate what side your problem is on
[18:42] <andyjb10> can someone help me resolve a random kernel panic with 64 bit karmic please?
[18:42] <mhall119|work> anyone know how to group accounts for the same person in Empathy the way you can in Pidgin?
[18:42] <sacarlson> mattwynne: that sounds good go old try that
[18:43] <wad> My co-worker has a box with a virtual machine in it, running Ubuntu 8 (this old Ubuntu is the newest that works in this virtual box). Trouble is, he needs to run svn in it, and that old version of Ubuntu has an old version of svn. How can we upgrade just the svn?
[18:43] <skrite> andyjb10, no such thing as random failure, something is causing it. :)  new install?
[18:43] <TylerPlack> how do you find all blocked IP's via comand line?
[18:43] <isolat3dsh33p> erUSUL: can't label it using gparted. In fstab, which column should i place the label?
[18:43] <andyjb10> yes
[18:43] <andyjb10> liveCD was fine
[18:43] <skrite> ok
[18:43] <i0x71> do anyone know which binary is the login screen in 9.10 ?
[18:43] <andyjb10> i think it may be something to do with the wireless card
[18:44] <DasEi> wad: fresh install of the whole ?
[18:44] <skrite> andyjb10, fail on first boot?
[18:44] <erUSUL> isolat3dsh33p: "rename the ntfs drives" what did you meant by that?
[18:44] <wad> DasEi, ah, that's a good idea.
[18:44] <andyjb10> no, fail after 10-30 minutes of normal use
