[14:49] <OY1R> lahwran, you just installed it ?
[14:50] <lahwran> OY1R: I was working, the cpu monitor on my panel showed 100% cpu, and running top showed an executable called unattended-upgrades was running.
[14:50] <lahwran> I sent it a KILL signal.

[15:15] <abcd99> is it possible to make gnome terminal to connect to ssh and "send screen -x abcd" (after its connected?) like gnome-terminal --tab --command="ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and then send screen -x abcd?
[15:15] <raykid> Is there a command or a place to find out the (hd*,*) equivalent of, say sda1 ?
[15:16] <coopooc> alright, here's a link to the beginning output from fsck. I can't paste the whole thing, it's way too much. http://paste.ubuntu.com/547951/plain/
[15:16] <raykid> is it named in order? like sda1=(hd0,1) sdb1=(hd1,1) ?

[15:18] <sspc> One more quick question. I got another PC, which is a medion brand. It only seems to support Windows. How do I install ubuntu on it? I installed ubuntu onto it about 5 or 6 times last night. Everytime, it gave the same problem. Ubuntu wouldn't start up. I tried versions 10.10 and 10.04. The screen would just go blank, showing "no signal".
[15:19] <pietr> sspc: it could be a hardware fault
[15:19] <pietr> harddrive, install medium or whatever
[15:20] <pietr> or even ACPI
[15:20] <sspc> pietr: Is there anyway to test whats causing the problem?
[15:20] <pietr> sspc: did the installation finnished correctly?
[15:21] <sspc> Yes
[15:21] <raykid> still not feeling comfortable with editing grub files manually. Isn't there a tool that rechecks for OS'es ?
[15:21] <IdleOne> raykid: install os-prober
[15:21] <rs0832> raykid, update-grub
[15:21] <pietr> sspc: at which point it failed?
[15:22] <raykid> Will try both thx guys
[15:22] <sspc> The install finished 100% successfully, but then on choosing ubuntu on the boot screen, it doesn't load- it just goes blank,
[15:22] <IdleOne> raykid: sudo apt-get install os-prober & sudo os-prober & sudo update-grub
[15:23] <pietr> sspc: do you see any messages after choosing ubuntu during boot?
[15:23] <sspc> No messages at all.
[15:23] <raykid> IdleOne, well that works but it kinda doesnt find the win7... ( im running from installed ubuntu, which is propably kinda stupid)
[15:23] <rs0832> sspc, try disabling quiet and splash from the boot options, i think that should give you some errors if any... it did for me
[15:24] <GreenDance> is it possible to disable "umount" on cd/dvd drives?
[15:24] <sspc> rs8832: How do you disable them?
[15:25] <pietr> sspc: try to click 'e' button on the boot option
[15:25] <rs0832> sspc, in the grub boot menu, highlight the option and press 'e'
[15:25] <sspc> OK, thanks! I'll try that.
[15:26] <pietr> sspc: and maybe add 'noacpi,acpi=off'
[15:26] <pietr> sspc: that will probably do it
[15:27] <sspc> Thanks! I'll just make a note of this.
[15:30] <kurvenparker> hallo
[15:30] <kurvenparker> kann mir jemand helfen ?
[15:30] <Braber01> is there anyway to save files directly to a server with out having to ftp->put them?
[15:31] <pietr> Braber01: that depends. what server?
[15:31] <Braber01> pieter one I set up for personal use.
[15:32] <IdleOne> Braber01: you have to connect to the server in one way or another, maybe ssh is what you want and use scp to transfer/copy files
[15:32] <coopooc> Paste of fsck output with my corrupt ext4 volume. thanks http://paste.ubuntu.com/547951/plain/
[15:33] <Braber01> IdleOne Thanks :)
[15:33] <pietr> Braber01: yes there are many ways: ssh(scp), ftp, http, samba, etc

[15:44] <IdleOne> mdpatrick: it isn't default anymore
[15:44] <abhinav_singh> rs0832 hold on

[15:44] <mdpatrick> BluesKaj, IdleOne: Ah... so it'd be the same way on the 32 bit version? What's the principal difference between apt-get and aptitude? Does it matter?
[15:45] <IdleOne> mdpatrick: it used to matter, now a days they both work well

[15:48] <Guest65678> algun espanol
[15:48] <bluehut> is there a way to backup my whole ubuntu. so i can easily back it up as it was with all programs and config files?
[15:48] <feano2> ravi, because you not root, obviously
[15:48] <abhinav_singh> i installed by making my pen drive as USB..
[15:48] <aeon-ltd> bluehut: remastersys, clonezilla
[15:48] <abhinav_singh> may be i have setup ..rs0832
[15:48] <IdleOne> Colin969_: hmm. do: ubuntu-bug mousetrap and report a bug I suppose
[15:48] <ravi> please help me what should  i have to do
[15:48] <feano2> bluehut, it's difficult because program files and settings are mixed together
[15:48] <bluehut> aeon-ltd, i will try them. thank you
[15:48] <IdleOne> !es | Guest65678
[15:48] <rs0832> abhinav_singh, is you pd a live one? do you still have it?
[15:48] <abhinav_singh> ravi give root password
[15:49] <abhinav_singh> no man ...rs0832
[15:49] <bluehut> feano2, so there is no easy way to do it?
[15:49] <feano2> bluehut, only by full imaging I suppose
[15:49] <abhinav_singh> whats the problem man rs0832
[15:49] <ravi> am new user please help me
[15:49] <rs0832> abhinav_singh, i had an idea, but i wanted you to have a backup
[15:50] <feano2> ravi, if you're on ubuntu, enter your user password,, if on debian, root's one
[15:50] <abhinav_singh> okay rs0832
[15:50] <aeon-ltd> bluehut: you can copy your /home directory which would retain *your* settings but not the system wide, or clonezill which creates a iso of the current install as does remastersys
[15:50] <abhinav_singh> but whats exactly is the issue...rs0832
[15:50] <feano2> is there a small tool to convert RTF -> plain text? Not Bloatoffice or crappyword
[15:50] <soreau> feano2: You mean if on debian, go to their support channel ;)
[15:50] <RogueShadow> screen -A
[15:50] <bluehut> feano2, my data is not so important, i just want all settings and programms. how do i do full imaging? and if i do it, do i need exactly the same partition size etc as it was?
[15:51] <rs0832> abhinav_singh, it is not an issue really, but i think you can set the timer to let you see the menu
[15:51] <abhinav_singh> hmmm..yup
[15:51] <ravi> when am installing a software am getting error 'in order to install or remove a software u need to authenicate' this is the problem wat should i do please help me am new user
[15:52] <mdpatrick> OK, since I'm now running AMD64... is there any packages I need to install to make things run sexier?
[15:52] <feano2> bluehut, yes if you use partition images, but you should be able just to dump / to tar file somewhere and later restore it from livecd
[15:52] <soreau> ! u | ravi
[15:52] <abhinav_singh> we told you man..use root password ..or use sudo ravi
[15:52] <rs0832> abhinav_singh, however i dont really suggest working without backups due to errors on either your or my part
[15:52] <C4R4J0> Hello!, does anybody know why ar.archives.ubuntu.org is not responding today? thanks!
[15:52] <feano2> abhinav_singh, root has no password on Ubuntu systems by default
[15:52] <rs0832> abhinav_singh, so if you can get your hands on a live cd /usb i can help you
[15:52] <aeon-ltd> C4R4J0: server down maybe, wait a few hours

[15:53] <abhinav_singh> okay man...tomorrow you will be online right
[15:53] <rs0832> abhinav_singh, yep
[15:53] <bluehut> feano2, if i want to "back up" my ubuntu as it is on another computer. can i dump / then too? or are there some files that will make problem because of different hardware
[15:53] <feano2> sgo11, seek plugins for gstreamer
[15:53] <abhinav_singh> feano2: yup man i know...i am advising him to use sudo
[15:53] <sgo11> feano2, ok. will try it now. thanks.
[15:53] <soreau> goltoof: Why do you think you need to reinstall vbox?
[15:54] <ravi>  when am installing a software am getting error 'in order to install or remove a software u need to authenicate' this is the problem wat should i do please help me am new user
[15:54] <feano2> bluehut, of course, but usually initrd is bloated enough to  boot anywhere
[15:54] <AnggaDj98> !en
[15:54] <feano2> ravi, enter *your* password
[15:54] <rs0832> ravi, you dont need to worry about that
[15:54] <soreau> ravi: Quit asking the same question and quit using u instead of you
[15:54] <rs0832> ravi, just use the same password that you use to login to ubuntu
[15:55] <xaetak> How can I change what commands can't be executed by sudo?
[15:55] <rs0832> xaetak, i dont think you can
[15:55]  * feano2 thinks someone should put software center to the eternal rest
[15:55] <sgo11> feano2, I found that I did install gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad, gstreamer0.10-plugins-base, gstreamer0.10-plugins-good, gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly.
[15:55] <soreau> xaetak: chmod
[15:55] <ravi> yes i have entered my password correctly but its coming again
[15:55] <aeon-ltd> xaetak: you mean commands that wouldn't require sudo authentication
[15:55] <rs0832> ravi, can you screenshot the window?
[15:56] <xaetak> I want to stop certain commands being executed.
[15:56] <bluehut> feano2, do you think its a dirty way to have my settings and programs on all computers and easyily back it up? or do you think its okay
[15:56] <feano2> xaetak, see man sudoers
[15:56] <soreau> xaetak: chmod -x /path/to/app/
[15:56] <aeon-ltd> xaetak: yeah then chmod, change it so it isn't executable
[15:56] <feano2> bluehut, that method will require some live cd
[15:57] <bluehut> feano2, i think that wont be problem. i just want to do it a clean way
[15:57] <phpjim> after a fresh install of ubuntu 10.10, after grub loads I only get a blinking cursor and then my screen shuts off due to lack of input to the monitor..  does anyone know how to get the the 'boot from first harddrive' option on the 10.10 livecd
[15:57] <ravi> actually am installing it in my dell laptop the error is coming like that
[15:58] <goltoof> soreau:  well it keeps crashing
[15:58] <rs0832> ravi, did you screenshot/?
[15:58] <feano2> bluehut, there;s no a clean way to transfer system to a different hardware
[15:58] <goltoof> soreau:  it could be that i'm using visio within it.
[15:58] <soreau> goltoof: reinstalling the application isnt going to change anything. You might ask in #vbox
[15:59] <bluehut> feano2, and a clean way to transfer wallpapers, gtk settings and all other settings?
[15:59] <feano2> sgo11, then you need more plugins from somewhere
[15:59] <abhinav_singh> hey rs0832..how do i close the open port?
[15:59] <sgo11> feano2, ok. thanks. but I have no idea what to install.... totem can play ape fine.
[15:59] <BluesKaj> phpjim, could be a graphics driver problem , what card ?
[16:00] <feano2> bluehut, you can transfer /etc for system-wide settings
[16:00] <knife> 这里有中国人吗
[16:00] <bluehut> feano2, this will be clean?
[16:00] <BluesKaj> !cn | knife
[16:00] <phpjim> BluesKaj: a pretty generic geforce card..  so the liveCD works perfectly fine with no issues what so ever..
[16:00] <rs0832> abhinav_singh, :) i am not really experienced with networking, but you can do it on your router or with a firewall, i think
[16:00] <SamuraiAlba> Any fix for the "cannot reserve MMIO region" bug?
[16:00] <knife> yes
[16:00] <SamuraiAlba> What is the fix, if any?
[16:01] <abhinav_singh> oh ok rs0832..well i have no control over my router
[16:01] <soreau> phpjim: press esc when the live image first loads
[16:01] <goltoof> soreau: on occasion reinstalling an application does make it work again.  i'm not 100% sure if it will help, but it's a little presumptuous to say it won't right away
[16:01] <rs0832> abhinav_singh, you can use ufw
[16:01] <feano2> bluehut, it should if you're not replacing important things like /etc/shadow etc.
[16:01] <soreau> ! vbox | goltoof
[16:01] <spivwaq> Hi everyone, I can't play dvds in ubuntu... any ideas?
[16:01] <BluesKaj> phpjim, some of newer 2and 300 series of nvidia onboards and pci cards ahave driver probs on maverick
[16:01] <SamuraiAlba> I dont need to escape.  It does auto boot
[16:01] <SamuraiAlba> 9 sec boot time.
[16:01] <goltoof> soreau:  i know what vbox is. thanks anyway
[16:01] <SamuraiAlba> I just want to get rid of that message.
[16:02] <rs0832> abhinav_singh, see here for the command to close a port - https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/firewall.html
[16:02] <abhinav_singh> ok rs0832..let me check it
[16:02] <bluehut> feano2, but how can i differ what i can replace and what not
[16:02] <AnggaDj98> '/join #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:03] <soreau> goltoof: The point is to ask in the vbox channel since they will have more insight as to why their program is crashing
[16:03] <feano2> bluehut, usually it's subdirectories named after respective packages
[16:03] <ravi> the action would require the installation of packages from not authenicated sources the error is coming is like that
[16:03] <xaetak> I get a permission denied in bash, can I still execute this command if I'm root?
[16:03] <rs0832> ravi, then run sudo apt-get update in a terminal
[16:03] <bluehut> feano2, okay. thank you for your help
[16:04] <feano2> ravi, that's OK, ignore it
[16:04] <phpjim> BluesKaj: alright.. so do you think I should try an older install cd?
[16:04] <feano2> is there a small tool to convert RTF -> plain text? Not Bloatoffice or crappyword please
[16:04] <phpjim> BluesKaj: holding shift shows grub menu...
[16:05] <phpjim> BluesKaj: and do you have any opinion on why the livecd works fine and the install goes smooth but then I have the console issue?
[16:05] <ravi> what do u mean by sudo apt
[16:05] <rs0832> ravi, apt-get is the package manager
[16:05] <goltoof> soreau:  will do, thanks
[16:05] <rs0832> ravi, sudo runs the program with superuser privs
[16:05] <ravi> how i have to install it
[16:05] <r3js> ravi, sudo means running it as superuser
[16:05] <rs0832> feano2, unrtf?
[16:06] <rs0832> ravi, you dont need to
[16:06] <PCdoc> I am facing a problem since I have installed Ubuntu 10.04 then upgraded to 10.10
[16:06] <ravi> what do u mean by super user
[16:06] <rs0832> ravi, just open a terminal (applications menu>accesories>terminal)
[16:06] <PCdoc> I have researched / googled a lot .. my display settings say monitor: unknown
[16:07] <rs0832> ravi, and type it there and press enter
[16:07] <r3js> root/admin with full privs
[16:07] <usr13> PCdoc: What display adpater do you have?
[16:07] <feano2> rs0832,  it didn't work because repo has prealfa version or similar junk
[16:07] <rs0832> ravi, since ubuntu is meant for multiple users, there has to be an 'owner'
[16:07] <OY1R> PCdoc, mine does too, but it works non the less.
[16:07] <PCdoc> I have via chipsets ... Via K8M800-CE + VT8237R
[16:08] <BluesKaj> phpjim, the live cd uses the generic nouveau graphics driver, but once the install p[rocedure is enabled the graphics driver specific to your card is installed and in some cases like yours , doesn
[16:08] <BluesKaj> work
[16:08] <PCdoc> i have tried unichrome .. no change
[16:08] <gsdfsd> hello
[16:08] <PCdoc> unichrome  / openchrome **
[16:08] <phpjim> BluesKaj: insightful. so is there any way to force the install to use the nouveau driver?
[16:08] <ravi> wht i have to type in terminal
[16:08] <compdoc> Socket 754 ?
[16:09] <compdoc> old stuff
[16:09] <PCdoc> yeah
[16:09] <usr13> PCdoc: lspci - list all PCI devices
[16:10] <PCdoc> do i paste them here?
[16:10] <usr13> PCdoc: No.
[16:10] <IdleOne> !paste
[16:10] <rs0832> feano2, if you want *real* lightweight one, use an online converter http://www.freefileconvert.com/
[16:10] <ravi> plz help me what i have to type in terminal
[16:11] <usr13> PCdoc: lspci |grep -i vga
[16:11] <rs0832> ravi, type: sudo apt-get update
[16:11] <BluesKaj> phpjim, try the alternate install cd , it's a tewt based installer which is more hardware friendly ...that's what I used on my 5yr old pc when the official live cd wouldn't
[16:11] <BluesKaj> tewt=text
[16:12] <phpjim> BluesKaj: alright, worth a try I guess..  this is a really new machine (6 core i7 with 12gigs of ram) but with a mediocre video card as it's just a workstation
[16:12] <PCdoc> http://paste.ubuntu.com/547975/
[16:12] <PCdoc> and 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. K8M800/K8N800/K8N800A [S3 UniChrome Pro] (rev 01)
[16:12] <PCdoc> for other
[16:13] <ravi> [sudo] password for ravi..........what i have do know
[16:13] <BluesKaj> phpjim, well, mediocre these days pretty good , so maybe your graphics is just too new
[16:13] <splashote> hey, i'm trying to delete the metadata of a lot of JPGs through jhead. it works with single files by executing "jhead -de test.JPG" how can I apply this action to all files in the current folder?
[16:13] <aeon-ltd> ravi: type your password i suppose
[16:13] <rs0832> ravi, the pass word you use to login
[16:14] <_pg_> I've never done a reinstall of ubuntu before but now I need to for a relative. Do I just need to grab the home directory to get all their personal stuff? and then how do I restore that user once tthe OS os reinstalled?
[16:14] <ravi> when i pressed my password its saying command not found
[16:14] <rs0832> ravi, try again : sudo apt-get update
[16:14] <aeon-ltd> _pg_: you move it back, but for ease of access in the future set up 2 partitions one or / and the other for /home then it makes it easier to reinstall and replace files
[16:15] <aeon-ltd> *or=for
[16:15] <rs0832> ravi, copy and paste it
[16:15] <usr13> PCdoc: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome
[16:15] <_pg_> aeon-ltd: i dont understand
[16:15] <PCdoc> usr13: i have tried that too
[16:15] <aeon-ltd> _pg_: how far have you gotten so far?
[16:15] <SirShmoopy> question for you guys
[16:16] <_pg_> aeon-ltd: well ive given up trying to fix it, and have decided to reinstall. I have a live usb running on it and a external hdd to back up stuff to
[16:16] <SirShmoopy> is it a general problem with 10.10, or somehting silly with my machine. menus have a way of not popping up sometimes unless i mouse over a few times
[16:16] <aeon-ltd> _pg_: yes copy their users /home to the external hdd
[16:16] <ravi> what i have to do next
[16:17] <rs0832> ravi, try installing what you were before
[16:17] <PCdoc> usr13: how do i make sure xorg is in use .. in ubuntu 10.10 .. My system is upto date
[16:17] <usr13> PCdoc: It replace the via driver with the openchrome one with command sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-openchrome (if the via driver is what is not working well for you).  But I don't know, just going by what I see at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome
[16:17] <_pg_> aeon-ltd: and then just replace the new /home that will be created? that seems to easy. wont things get messed up with permissions or something like that?
[16:17] <_pg_> its going from 9.10 to 10.10 also-
[16:17] <compdoc> SirShmoopy, you think the machine is too busy?
[16:18] <vladimirm> How do I create a backup of my SansClip+ using dd? Something like dd -if=/dev/usbdevice -of=~/sansaclip.img ?
[16:18] <PCdoc> I read somewhere that xorg is not in use by default in 10.10
[16:18] <aeon-ltd> _pg_: shouldn't, though some config file's settings may be redundant, as long as the user name is the same (exactly the same)
[16:18] <SirShmoopy> compdoc, no, it happens even when i only have a few apps running. but i dont remember it being a problem 10.04-down
[16:18] <xmichaelx> someone here possibly code sth in java?
[16:18] <aeon-ltd> PCdoc: yeah its been deprecated for a while now
[16:18] <_pg_> is the name of the dir inside /home the username?
[16:18] <aeon-ltd> _pg_: yes
[16:18] <compdoc> oh, its 10.10?
[16:19] <PCdoc> aeon-ltd: so how do i make it in use .. coz if i have installed any drivers .. it wont show change unless its enabled
[16:19] <SirShmoopy> yeah
[16:19] <rs0832> _pg_, yes
[16:19] <_pg_> sweet-thanks chaps
[16:19] <aeon-ltd> PCdoc: its still read by xorg, just that some options were given over to udev for plug an play purposes
[16:20] <compdoc> Ive been seeing so many problems with 10.10 in here - think I'll stick with 10.04.1
[16:20] <spivwaq> Hi all, has anyone experienced problems playing certain dvds?  Some play, some don't.
[16:20] <spivwaq> in 10.10
[16:20] <_pg_> aeon-ltd: were you saying before to install OS to / and then /home to a new partition?
[16:20] <phpjim> BluesKaj: in my /boot/grub/grub.cfg in the menuentries, I see a line 'set root='(hd0,msdos1)'..  shouldn't I see something more like: sda1,ext4?
[16:20] <usr13> spivwaq: Which ones don't play?
[16:20] <phpjim> BluesKaj: my harddrive is sda
[16:20] <PCdoc> compdoc: the problem m talking abt is with my installation since ubuntu 9.*
[16:20] <aeon-ltd> _pg_: yes it makes it easier for reinstalls later as you can just wipe / whilst keeping /home intact
[16:20] <_pg_> aeon-ltd: like <ext4-mnt / -swap - / ext4 mnt /home>
[16:20] <spivwaq> I can't play "Inception"
[16:21] <_pg_> spivwaq: try going down another level
[16:21] <_pg_> :P
[16:21] <abioticrhyme> hello
[16:21] <AnggaDj98> hello
[16:21] <_pg_> aeon-ltd: how bug does OS part need to be? does it grow much over time?
[16:21] <aeon-ltd> _pg_: yeah 3 partitions like that / /home /swap
[16:22] <spivwaq> _pg_: do you mean like logging in as the administrator?
[16:22] <usr13> spivwaq: What is Inception?  What type of video format is it?
[16:22] <BluesKaj> phpjim, do df -h in the terminal , check for /dev/sdaX
[16:22] <histo> _pg_: you mean the / parititoin?
[16:22] <histo> _pg_: it will grow as you add software to the system. But all your documents and settings are stored in the /home
[16:22] <phpjim> BluesKaj: yeah, it's there
[16:22] <aeon-ltd> _pg_: the os only needs to be between 8gb to 20gb it all depends on how much applications you will install since the packages and system configs are stored on /
[16:22] <PCdoc> usr13: i tried the command line u wrote above and it returns me: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome is already the newest version.
[16:23] <acemo> how do i install kernel 2.6.36 on maverick? i need that version for my wireless drivers.
[16:23] <spivwaq> It's a movie, video format I don't know, appear to be *.VOB on the disk
[16:23] <aeon-ltd> _pg_: really though you could have it as small as 4gb using the minimal install (or server install)
[16:23] <SirShmoopy> spivwaq, while i havent tried watching anything THAT new, ive never had trouble watching movies
[16:23] <SirShmoopy> COPYING on the other hand
[16:23] <BluesKaj> phpjim,  sudo fdisk -l
[16:24] <spivwaq> yeah my other dvds have no probs I installed libdvdread4 hoping that would do the trick
[16:24] <histo> acemo: check in backports
[16:24] <histo> !backports | acemo
[16:24] <usr13> PCdoc: It was probably already installed during the initial install process.
[16:24] <_pg_> aeon-ltd: ok, its for my mother-in-law. chrome-facebook-gmail type stuff. Although she did figure out how to load pictures on with fspot which was impressive. so like 15GB is fine? 20 to be safe?
[16:24] <usr13> PCdoc: Can I PM you?
[16:24] <PCdoc> If i install Wine package.. will viruses also start acting??? as .exe files will be recognized by ubuntu wine package
[16:24] <PCdoc> sure usr13
[16:24] <_pg_> PCdoc: dont think so
[16:24] <acemo> histo: thanks
[16:24] <usr13> PCdoc: No
[16:24] <rs0832> spivwaq, does this particular dvd play on another computer?
[16:25] <a> hi, i have a problem with ubuntu one
[16:25] <aeon-ltd> _pg_: i'd say 12gb if most of her time is on the web and not on multiple applications
[16:25] <_pg_> aeon-ltd: awesome. thanks for all your help
[16:25] <Guest49963> i've got Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat
[16:25] <aeon-ltd> _pg_: your welcome
[16:25] <phpjim> BluesKaj: /dev/sda1 (bootable)  /dev/sda2 extended   /dev/sda5 swap
[16:25] <aeon-ltd> *you're
[16:25] <spivwaq> yeah it plays fine but for Ubuntu...i read that ubuntu needs ot have some packages installed for dvds
[16:26] <rs0832> spivwaq, yes
[16:26]  * PCdoc is waiting for usr13 PM
[16:26] <spivwaq> but i thought i'd gotten all of them
[16:26] <rs0832> spivwaq, cause some are regionalised
[16:26] <_pg_> one final question: is there anything that tests hdd integrity like SR6 that I can run from live usb?
[16:26] <acemo> histo: enabling backports doesn't seems to give me any newer kernel.
[16:27] <histo> acemo: you may have to build it yourself if you can't find a ppa with it
[16:27] <feano2> backporting kernel is a stupid idea
[16:27] <rs0832> spivwaq, if it persists you can try vobcopy
[16:28] <iRabbit_> Ubuntu for Netbook 10..... how do I show the seconds with the clock? How do I display the weather?
[16:28] <acemo> feano2: i'd be happy with it though ^^
[16:28] <BluesKaj> ok phpjim , try this small tutorial : http://paste.ubuntu.com/547986/ , but since you're on the livecd skip step3
[16:28] <pedro3005> hi all. I'm trying to play a .rm file. any codec I should install? I tried totem, vlc and mplayer, none played it
[16:29] <phpjim> BluesKaj: here is the video card I have: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814133273
[16:29] <coopooc> anyone know any drive repair tools. fsck doesn't appear to be able to fix my problems
[16:29] <PCdoc> the problem becoz of monitor: unknown is .. scrolling is not smooth, watching movies is like better not watch .. and fonts etc are too small.. the resolutions my monitor support .. does not work properly on ubuntu ..
[16:30] <BluesKaj> phpjim, nothing mediocre abot that card :)
[16:30] <BluesKaj> err about
[16:30] <coz_> iRabbit_,  its a little different in netbook  look here  for clock   http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/09/enable-date-day-seconds-on-indicator-datetime/
[16:31] <coz_> iRabbit_,  you will have to play with dconf-tools
[16:31] <phpjim> BluesKaj: compared to the rest of the system it is =)
[16:31] <coz_> iRabbit_,  rather deconf-editor
[16:31] <murlidhar> the software-centre does not show anything.. how can i solve it ? when opened only window opens but nothing is visible on it.
[16:31] <coz_> iRabbit_,  one more time it is   dconf-editor  sorry for the typo
[16:31] <phpjim> BluesKaj: running a 120gb SSD, 1TB 7200rpm drive..  i7 extreme with 6 cores, and 12 gigs of ram...
[16:32] <invite016> hi
[16:32] <invite016> are there any french ?
[16:32] <dom96> hello, i have just installed a new hard drive, and now when I boot ubuntu it gives me this message. "ALERT! /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk does not exist. Dropping to a shell". Anyone know how to fix this?
[16:32] <gobbe> murlidhar: can you open terminal, run "sudo apt-get update" and see that it goes ok?
[16:32] <iRabbit_> coz_:  Thanks bud, I'll check it out
[16:33] <murlidhar> gobbe: yes it is runnin fine
[16:33] <chris_osx> in ubuntu, what do "universe" and "multiverse" mean?
[16:33] <murlidhar> gobbe: cross checked it again.
[16:33] <maco> chris_osx: universe are open source packages that are maintained by the community. multiverse are not-open-source ones, such as real player
[16:34] <chris_osx> thanks maco
[16:34] <gobbe> murlidhar: so you mean that when you open software center there is nothing in the window?
[16:34] <murlidhar> gobbe: yep nothing...literally nothing is visible.
[16:34] <gobbe> murlidhar: not even on the left part?
[16:35] <murlidhar> gobbe: nopes
[16:35] <gobbe> murlidhar: interesting...
[16:35] <petr> Converter from mp4 to flv  (or other for youtube) using linux !!
[16:35] <Guest74078> how?
[16:35] <Guest74078> Converter from mp4 to flv (or other for youtube) using linux !!
[16:35] <phpjim> BluesKaj: so I am finding results about that card andi t working fine in ubuntu 8.10
[16:36] <murlidhar> gobbe: http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/3227/ubuntusoftwarecenter021.png
[16:36] <gobbe> murlidhar: if you try to start it from terminal (/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/software-center) does it output anything to terminal?
[16:37] <shawnti> hi there
[16:38] <shawnti> how can i delete a nfs share ? when i check with showmount I can see two entries, but only one is given in /etc/exports
[16:38] <Guest74078> mp4 to avi    !!!   through ffmpeg
[16:38] <shawnti> want to get rid of the entry which isnt listed in /etc/exports
[16:38] <Guest74078> OK.... I found :    ffmpeg -i xxx.mp4 xxx.avi
[16:38] <murlidhar> gobbe: nvm...got it.. apparently it didn't close properly last time so i killed the process and again started the software=center...now its working good :)
[16:39] <murlidhar> gobbe: thanks though  :)
[16:39] <BluesKaj> phpjim, yes I see that as well, seems like it should work in maverick as nvidia-current which applies to your card ..nvidia-current is a group of different drivers and the correect one is supposed to be the kernel source driver for your particular card , altho in some cases they are proprietary as well
[16:40] <exo1> :)
[16:42] <PCdoc> Does anyone else have an idea with my monitor: unknown problem?
[16:42] <phpjim> BluesKaj: alright...  so any suggestions on how to proceed?
[16:42] <phpjim> BluesKaj: I have 2 cds left that I can use to burn stuff with, so I am trying to ... not waste them =)

[16:44] <gobbe> shawnti: run sudo exportfs -a
[16:44] <usr13> Did you see the part about switching from 3d to 2d on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome

[16:45] <Braber01> Hi I'm trying to set up a server and I added my dad as a username however i forgot to tell it to set up a home directory is there any command besides /usr/sbin/useradd that can do this?
[16:45] <shawnti> thats it, gobbe, its old. i tested it with another directory, but the entry is still there, will try your command
[16:46] <diddy> I have one hell of a problem. I wanted to free up some space after installing the latest kernel on my boot partition, so I uninstalled old kernels via the packet manager. Now after the xmas holidays I am booting up Ubuntu 10.10 and I am getting the error kernel can not be loaded. File not found. :( Now I am kind of paniking. I just started via the 10.10 live CD but what do I do now? All of my system is in an encrypted LVM.
[16:46] <Guest74078> I have mp4   but after loading them on youtube I see quadrats   several big quadrats!! no image!!
[16:47] <usr13> PCdoc: Did you see the part about switching from 3d to 2d on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome  "Compile and install the 2D driver"
[16:47] <shawnti> gobbe: tried it, but its still there
[16:47] <BluesKaj> phpjim, I'm not sure unless you can access a tty at boot up , alt+ctrl+F1 or F2 etc
[16:48] <phpjim> BluesKaj: I can't =\
[16:48] <PCdoc> no ... lemme see... but i have tried switching before to 3D .. and guess what .. my  xserver crached usr13
[16:48] <phpjim> BluesKaj: do you think that is indicative of there being a grub issue?
[16:48] <SirShmoopy> Guest74078, if you throw in a -b or -r you can set the bitrate or framerate
[16:48] <jimi_> After upgrading to the latest ubuntu, my built in webcam is sluggish, and stops recording video after 30 seconds. It didnt have this problem before. Where would I begin diagnosing this?
[16:48] <histo> Anyone know what apt-add-repository is provided by?
[16:48] <gobbe> shawnti: can you pass content of your /etc/exports and showmount-command to pastebin?
[16:48] <BluesKaj> phpjim, why do you have another OS on the HDD ?
[16:49] <histo> Sorry add-apt-repository
[16:49] <phpjim> BluesKaj: the only OS I have on the drive is linux
[16:49] <Guest74078> SirShmoopy:  a -b or -r ???? WTF is this?
[16:49] <eXpl0it3r> how can i setup my screens the way i used them under windows, so that the big screen on the right is the "primary" screen, with the top and bottom bar and on the smaller left screen i get just the bottom bar/taskbar?
[16:49] <kaddi> are the dictd-www.freedict.de Dictionaries for stardict any good?
[16:49] <shawnti> sure
[16:50] <diddy> I have one hell of a problem. I wanted to free up some space after installing the latest kernel on my boot partition, so I uninstalled old kernels via the packet manager.

[16:50] <cheater99> hi guys
[16:50] <Guest52321> does anyone know if these chats are monitored by gov. angencies?
[16:50] <complete> Good Evening! Whats the command to shut down a box at a certain time?
[16:50] <Colin969_> rs0832 help
[16:50] <cheater99> i have a big problem, i think my usb ports are not recognized as usb 2
[16:50] <rs0832> Colin969_, tell me
[16:51] <BluesKaj> phpjim, ok , you can try holding the shift key while the pc boots to get the grub menu, it might work
[16:51] <complete> "halt at 21:00" ?
[16:51] <Braber01> complete: sudo shutdown -P [time]
 OK.... I found :    ffmpeg -r 24 -b 128 -i xxx.mp4 xxx.avi will give you an avi with a framerate of 24 at 128b/s
[16:51] <Colin969_> rs0832 how doI change admin pass
[16:51] <rs0832> cheater99, then what are they recognised as?
[16:51] <BluesKaj> cheater99, lsusb in the terminal
[16:51] <Guest52321> does anyone know if these chats are monitored by gov. angencies?
[16:51] <rs0832> Guest52321, well, they are logged publicly for viewing
[16:51] <Braber01> complete: sudo shutdown -p 21:00
[16:51] <phpjim> BluesKaj: I can get the grub menu fine..then I have the expected menu options (ubuntu, ubuntu recovery)  booting into recovery shows some loading happening that all happens so fast you really can't read it, then the screen goes black
[16:51] <rs0832> Colin969_, o.0
[16:51] <Guest74078> SirShmoopy:   but why 128??? and 24??
[16:52] <phpjim> BluesKaj: no crazy errors or anything that I can see
[16:52] <cheater99> rs0832 / BluesKaj: i did that and there are some mentions of usb 2.0 and some of 1.1 (for example: Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub)
[16:52] <complete> Braber01: and how about "halt at 21:00"?
[16:52] <eXpl0it3r> has anyone an idea how i get the bottom and the top bar to the other screen?
[16:52] <kaddi> if using those  dictd-www.freedict.de dictionaries do I need to install german - english and english - german or is one of the two going to allow to do translations back and fourth?
[16:52] <Colin969_> rs0832, well
[16:52] <Braber01> complete: sudo shutdown -h 21:00
[16:52] <Guest52321> ok thats fine but not specifically monitored?
[16:52] <cheater99> rs0832: i think they're usb 1.1 only because the max speed i get when copying from things is very low, 2.2 MB/s i think (let me test now)
[16:52] <SirShmoopy> Guest74078,  thats just an example, you can set it to whatever you want
[16:53] <diddy> I have one hell of a problem. I wanted to free up some space after installing the latest kernel on my boot partition, so I uninstalled old kernels via the packet manager. Now after the xmas holidays I am booting up Ubuntu 10.10 and I am getting the error kernel can not be loaded. File not found. :( Now I am kind of paniking. I just started via the 10.10 live CD but what do I do now? All of my system is in an encrypted LVM.
[16:53] <rs0832> Colin969_, in the system > adminsitration menu
[16:53] <complete> Braber01: i would prefer to use the "at" command
[16:53] <rs0832> cheater99, that depends on your usb stick/device too i think
[16:53] <shawnti> gobbe: http://pastebin.com/9DBGyVHs
[16:53] <cheater99> rs0832: hmm
[16:53] <cheater99> rs0832: might be
[16:53] <rs0832> Colin969_, go there and then users and groups
[16:53] <Braber01> complete: the problem is if you use the at command to shut down you compute at a certan time you won't get any warnings that you computer is going to shut of.
[16:53] <Colin969_> rs0832, Oh
[16:53] <histo> diddy: mount your / and chroot and install a working linux-image-"package"
[16:53] <complete> Braber01: i dont care
[16:54] <Guest52321> does anyone know how to use aircrack-ng 1.1
[16:54] <diddy> histo, how exactly?
[16:54] <eXpl0it3r> where is the xorg.conf located?
[16:54] <r3js> Guest52321, seriously just google it. this is wrong channel
[16:54] <SirShmoopy> .... im getting spam texts from my cell provider
[16:54] <Braber01> then at 21:00; sudo shutdown -h now.
[16:54] <histo> diddy: well let me figure out how you would mount yoru encrypted / first
[16:55] <rs0832> eXpl0it3r, in 9.10 and above you have to create it yourself
[16:55] <histo> diddy: is the whole drive encrypted or just the /home
[16:55] <eXpl0it3r> ah k
[16:55] <roselush> I'm coming !
[16:55] <Guest52321> r3js, whats the right CHANNEL? lol
[16:55] <BluesKaj> !grub
[16:55] <SirShmoopy> would the os run faster as a livecd on a flash drive, or installed on a flash drive?
[16:56] <diddy> histo, everything but /boot
[16:56] <Braber01> Hey I'm having trouble with the useradd command on a server can anybody help me?
[16:56] <r3js> there is non, http://forum.aircrack-ng.org/ perhaps
[16:56] <usr13> SirShmoopy: Probably not
[16:56] <gobbe> shawnti: what does the sudo exportfs -a say?
[16:56] <campbellgolf> given that cost is not a concern, which is better VMWorkstation or VirtualBox for running Ubuntu on Win7?
[16:56] <Guest52321> SirShmoopy' FLASHDRIVE
[16:56] <mkanyicy> Braber01, what do you want to do with it?
[16:56] <Colin969_> Hmm
[16:56] <rs0832> Colin969_, o,6
[16:56] <shawnti> nothing, just jumps to the next line
[16:56] <usr13> SirShmoopy: Oh wait, I missread your question.  Yes, it might very well run faster from a USB rather than CDROM,
[16:57] <Colin969_> rs0832, Well...Its annoying
[16:57] <Braber01> mkanyicy I want to add my dad as a user, and I can't figure out how to get it to create the home directory.
[16:57] <rs0832> Colin969_, what is?
[16:57] <Colin969_> rs0832, Ive given it Root access but its not installing
[16:57] <histo> diddy: this will help you get it mounted everything but the installing grub part http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1432656
[16:57] <Guest52321> so what about Backtrack linux exclusive IRC CHATS
[16:57] <rs0832> Colin969_, what?
[16:58] <usr13> SirShmoopy: But it depends on the speed of the CDROM as compared to the speed of the USB disk.
[16:58] <phpjim> any recommendations on fixing my ubuntu installation that is just a blinking cursor when it starts up, and then the screen goes black?
[16:58] <rs0832> Colin969_, given what root access?
[16:58] <shawnti> gobbe: sudo exportfs -a tells me nothing, it just jumps to the next line, no error no nothing
[16:58] <mkanyicy> Braber01, man useradd
[16:58] <Colin969_> rs0832 Penumbra Installer
[16:58] <shawnti> gobbe: same with -ra
[16:58] <Colin969_> Its installing to /usr/games
[16:58] <diddy> histo, thx
[16:58] <SirShmoopy> usr13 no i mean, i tried installing onto a key drive, but it ran reeealy slow. so i wiped and put the usb livecd on it
[16:58] <gobbe> shawnti: what if you remove all the lines from /etc/exports and run command?
[16:58] <rs0832> Colin969_, and?
[16:59] <manlymat183> Does anyone here have any experience with a 4g card on Ubuntu?  I have Verizon and it looks like it's a hack to get it working, even with bluetooth if I try to tether.  was thinking of going out and getting the rocket 2.0 device and just using that - it seems to work out of box?
[16:59] <mkanyicy> Braber01, sudo useradd -m -s /bin/bash dad
[16:59] <Colin969_> rs0832, Its nothing happening
[16:59] <shawnti> a "#" intfront shoule be enuff?
[16:59] <gobbe> shawnti: should
[16:59] <rs0832> Colin969_, nothings happening? is something supposed to?
[16:59] <mkanyicy> Braber01, and then 'sudo passwd dad' to set the password
[17:00] <shawnti> gobbe: both entries are still there
[17:00] <flohuels> :-P
[17:00] <usr13> SirShmoopy: So, now you know.
[17:00] <mkanyicy> Braber01, you can use 'sudo adduser dad groupname' do add him to the groupname you have chosen eg 'admin'
[17:00] <Braber01> so useradd -m /home/dad dad?
[17:00] <BluesKaj> phpjim, maybe this will work , http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ubuntu-63/how-i-enabled-nvidias-drivers-in-ubuntu-9-10-livecd-and-restarted-x-767352/
[17:00] <mkanyicy> Braber01, no
[17:01] <gobbe> shawnti: and you are running exportfs with sudo?
[17:01] <shawnti> gobbe: wtf.... even when i sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart. still both entries are there
[17:01] <mkanyicy> Braber01, /home/dad will be created automatically
[17:01] <shawnti> of course
[17:01] <Colin969_> rs0832 Well of  course, what else is a Progress bar meant to do
[17:01] <shawnti> gobbe: of course
[17:01] <mkanyicy> Braber01, sudo useradd -m -s /bin/bash dad
[17:01] <gobbe> shawnti: try shutdown nfs totally and check with showmount
[17:01] <Braber01> mkanyicy, thank you :)
[17:02] <shawnti> gobbe: sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server shutdown?
[17:02] <rs0832> Colin969_, ah theres a progress bar then
[17:02] <shawnti> gobbe: im not very familar with this one. just new to it
[17:02] <rs0832> Colin969_, so it's stuck or something?
[17:03] <shawnti> gobbe: ah its "stop" :)
[17:03] <gobbe> shawnti: ok, so now it doesn't show any mounts?
[17:03] <shawnti> gobbe: nope, just clnt_create: RPC: Program not registered
[17:03] <Colin969_> rs0832 Blank
[17:03] <gobbe> shawnti: ok, start it again
[17:03] <mkanyicy> Braber01, no prob

[17:04] <gobbe> shawnti: and your exports-file is empty?-)
[17:04] <shawnti> uncommented it.. with #
[17:05] <Colin969_> rs0832, Nope,But should be installing, I launched the SH File Via Terminal, Then the installer  askedme where
[17:05] <shawnti> gobbe: its just the standart file now. nothing addet, everything with # in front
[17:05] <gobbe> shawnti: and there is only the line you had in pastebin, with # in front?
[17:05] <shawnti> gobbe: 100%
[17:06] <rs0832> Colin969_, and? where did you selecT?
[17:06] <shawnti> gobbe: of course i addet the ip to host.deny and host.allow, but nothing is addet there with the dirpath. so im wondering
[17:06] <BluesKaj> phpjim, I've trying to find a method to install the driver to the linux install by using the live cd ,...I know it's possible and I shold really do more research on the subject since this situation is cropping up much more often now
[17:06] <Colin969_> rs0832 usr/games/
[17:07] <rs0832> Colin969_, was that the default?
[17:07] <Colin969_> rs0832, Yes
[17:07] <gobbe> shawnti: interesting. just wait a sec, i'll try with my. which version do you have of ubuntu?
[17:07] <rs0832> Colin969_, hmm
[17:07] <phpjim> BluesKaj: I would love to have some sort of 'use the configuration you're using now!' type setup
[17:07] <shawnti> gobbe: 10.10
[17:07] <phpjim> BluesKaj: i.e., if whatever configuration is on the live cd could be my base configuration I could work through this..
[17:07] <rs0832> Colin969_, so this stat bar is text based in the terminal?

[17:10] <mkanyicy> dom96, just ask
[17:10] <phpjim> BluesKaj: I guess I could try the alternate cd
[17:10] <dom96> mkanyicy: I did.
[17:10] <Colin969_> rs0832,Nope, But it seems Terminal keeps open for finalizing
[17:11] <mkanyicy> dom96, then wait
[17:11] <rs0832> Colin969_, and the window doesnt do anything?
[17:11] <dom96> Seems like my question is getting lost in the masses.
[17:11] <Colin969_> rs0832 Nope
[17:11] <Colin969_> rs0832 I give Up....ILl try Wine
[17:11] <dom96> i have just installed a new hard drive, and now when I boot ubuntu it gives me this message. "ALERT! /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk does not exist. Dropping to a shell". Anyone know how to fix this?
[17:11] <dom96> Here it is again.
[17:11] <rs0832> Colin969_, why dont you use a different installation dir?
[17:11] <leftist> can someone refresh my memory on the name of this app? i forget the name. http://www.elivecd.org/Main/Screenshots/Applications?pic=57
[17:12] <feano2> how tell which process owns the window?
[17:12] <maco> dom96: is it an additional hard drive or replacement?
[17:12] <dom96> maco: Additional
[17:12] <shawnti> feano2: check at console: ps x
[17:12] <shawnti> ?
[17:12] <maco> dom96: any chance it is having higher precedence in the bios / in the jumpers than your old primary hard drive?
[17:12] <mkanyicy> dom96, did ubuntu boot before?
[17:13] <dom96> maco: It's not.
[17:13] <dom96> mkanyicy: Yes.
[17:13] <feano2> so how it related to windows?
[17:13] <diddy> histo, I don't understand line 8 in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1432656
[17:13] <mkanyicy> dom96, are you on ubuntu now?
[17:13] <kaddi> mkanyicy: Final question (promised), is it possible to use a command like  tar -xjf stardict-freedict-* -C /usr/share/stardict/dic/ to extract several tars at once? It says: tar: stardict-freedict-deu-fra-2.4.2.tar.bz2: Not found in archive
[17:13] <dom96> mkanyicy: no
[17:13] <gobbe> shawnti: so you had also second line in past history on exports and you removed it?
[17:13] <maco> feano2: you can type "xprop" and clickt he window and itll spit out a bunch of info about it
[17:13] <shawnti> feano2: sorry but i dont get it, "windows" microsoft windows" ?
[17:13] <diddy> histo, /dev/vg1/lvroot  Where does that come from?
[17:14] <shawnti> gobbe: yes, had some lines in it for testing purposes, but only one at each time
[17:14] <mkanyicy> kaddi, you can use a 'for loop'
[17:14] <dom96> Am I suppose to reinstall Ubuntu?
[17:14] <maco> feano2: look at the line that says:  _NET_WM_PID(CARDINAL) = xxxx
[17:15] <feano2> maco, cool
[17:15] <gobbe> shawnti: have you mounted the one with 2 to somewhere?
[17:15] <shawnti> dom96: reinstall should be the last instance
[17:15] <shawnti> gobbe: nope i didnt
[17:15] <maco> dom96: it shouldnt be necessary.... is it GRUB or the initrd giving that error?
[17:16] <dom96> maco: I'm not sure. How do I check?

[17:22] <boy_25> hi
[17:23] <shawnti> gobbe: while restart it tells me "no exports" and showmount is empty like:  "clnt_create: RPC: Program not registered"
[17:23] <induz> can I use Firestart to control my wireless router
[17:23] <gobbe> shawnti: what if you do touch /etc/expors
[17:23] <gobbe> shawnti: exports
[17:23] <gobbe> induz: what do you mean with control?
[17:24] <shcherbak> induz: hm?
[17:24] <gobbe> induz: if your wireless router has linux, then you can
[17:24] <shookees> Hello :)
[17:24] <shawnti> gobbe: tells me no rights to do that
[17:24] <shcherbak> induz: you want to put firewall in front of router?
[17:24] <boy_25> hello
[17:24] <BluesKaj> how to mount the hdd from ubuntu maverick live cd with write permissions ?
[17:24] <gobbe> shawnti: sorry, of course sudo in front :)
[17:25] <induz> no I want to see who are connected to my router
[17:25] <induz> my router doesnt have Linux on it
[17:25] <shcherbak> induz: wireless? use nast to screen lan
[17:25] <induz> it has default s/w
[17:25] <gobbe> induz: firestarter is firewall for your linux-box
[17:26] <induz> what is NAST
[17:26] <shawnti> gobbe: just jumped into the next line
[17:26] <BluesKaj> induz, netstat -anp --tcp --udp
[17:26] <shcherbak> induz: for wireless you can sniff
[17:26] <gobbe> shawnti: so it doesn't show anything now?
[17:26] <gobbe> shawnti: well. add the only line you need to new file from backup, run exportfs again ja see
[17:26] <induz> are these command to put on CLI??
[17:26] <shawnti> gobbe: after touch .... nope
[17:26] <shawnti> gobbe: copy
[17:27] <ayush_> Is there a way to synchronize google chrome bookmarks with Ubuntu One?
[17:27] <gobbe> shawnti: i mean add there the same line, but just the one that you had in pastebin
[17:27] <gobbe> shawnti: and run exportfs again
[17:28] <shawnti> gobbe: lool... still there. WTF?! :(
[17:28] <shawnti> <- speakless
[17:28] <gobbe> shawnti: that's _really_ interesting :D
[17:28] <mkanyicy> is there a way to access a file in a folder AFTER mounting a filesystem into that folder WITHOUT unmounting that filesystem first?
[17:29] <gobbe> shawnti: have u tried to reboot whole machine?
[17:29] <induz> i have router[wireless] on a different room. I want to see who are connected to my router and what r they doing?
[17:29] <induz> is it possible to do?
[17:29] <induz> and how
[17:29] <gobbe> induz: ask from your router vendor
[17:29] <dom96_> ok, here is the output of the boot info script. http://pastebin.com/LfachmnT
[17:29] <shawnti> gobbe: not yet, i just tried some things yesterday, and thought maybe its gone after reboot. but today i checked that, and d0h! its still there
[17:29] <induz> its Linksys
[17:30] <AlexSLVR> i think you can see it in router control panel
[17:30] <goltoof> ayush_:  i imagine by synching the chrome home folder.. personally i use the delicious plugin which stores them all online
[17:30] <shcherbak> induz: aircrack-ng
[17:30] <BluesKaj> induz , did you see my post above , about netstat ?
[17:30] <gobbe> induz: what you are looking for is a feature of your router, or should be
[17:30] <gobbe> induz: of course you could sniff with aircrack etc
[17:30] <shcherbak> induz: packet capture is a must to google
[17:31] <induz> BluesKaj, I tried the netstat command
[17:31] <BluesKaj> induz, and ?
[17:32] <AlexSLVR> somebody can help me? can i make full copy of my system on other PC?
[17:33] <induz> how is wireshark??
[17:33] <induz> aircrack is for WEP cracking
[17:34] <shawnti> AlexSLVR: will be hard, coze the hardware differs...
[17:34] <shcherbak> induz: Keep it in Ubuntu tone, please (airodump-ng let you see clients on wlan)
[17:34] <shawnti> you can make a copy of the harddisk(clone) with DD
[17:35] <eXpl0it3r> how do i  define one of my two screens as primary, so that the taskbar and the mainmenu get displayed on the specified screen?
[17:35] <AlexSLVR> what is DD? give me full name please
[17:35] <phpjim> BluesKaj: any suggestions on how to proceeed?  what do you tink my next move should be?
[17:35] <usr13> AlexSLVR: man dd
[17:35] <PhonicUK> hey all, I need to find a good UPnP/DNLA Media client, does anyone know of one?
[17:36] <induz> Kismet?
[17:36] <BluesKaj> phpjim, hang on for a minute or 2 , I'm about to find a tutorial that might work
[17:36] <shawnti> Kismet is a sniffer for wlan
[17:37] <phpjim> BluesKaj: awesome, thanks..  Sorry to be so pressing but as I said I have to fix the machine today or install windows (it's my new work machine) so my time is running out!
[17:37] <shawnti> AlexSLVR: Just use google "DD CLONE"
[17:37] <Sean93> what should I use to split a mp4 in linux?
[17:38] <AlexSLVR> thankyou. I find it
[17:38] <shawnti> AlexSLVR: http://www.backuphowto.info/linux-backup-hard-disk-clone-dd
[17:38] <PhonicUK> nobody knows of a network media client that supports DNLA/UPnP?
[17:38] <gusg1> Is there any performance hit from using the Wubi installer? Apparently the system would run within an NTFS partition
[17:38] <lahwran__> so Xorg just crashed. this brought gdm down with it - gdm stopped uncleanly and now is saying "failed to aquire org.gnome.DisplayManager". how do I delete the lock file so I can get back in?
[17:38] <BluesKaj> phpjim, understood
[17:39] <eXpl0it3r> how do i define one of my two screens as primary, so that the taskbar and the mainmenu get displayed on the specified screen?
[17:39] <maco> eXpl0it3r: you can just drag the panel over, i think....
[17:39] <lahwran__> eXpl0it3r: settings->preferences->monitors I think
[17:39] <lahwran__> might be called displays
[17:40] <goltoof> eXpl0it3r:  depends on the display manager you're using.  differs between them
[17:40] <eXpl0it3r> goltoff: it's a fresh install no modification...
[17:40] <lahwran__> eXpl0it3r: what I said already
[17:40] <maco> goltoof: i dont think so.... the desktop environment maybe, but not he dm
[17:40] <maco> *the
[17:40] <goltoof> eXpl0it3r:  right, but it depends on you're using nvidia manager, ati, or the default manager
[17:40] <nit-wit> dom96, hows it going
[17:41] <lahwran__> goltoof: he just said it was a fresh install
[17:41] <lahwran__> goltoof: stop confusing him
[17:41] <eXpl0it3r> lahwran:: : which settings
[17:41] <dom96> nit-wit: I posted the output up there^ Wait i'll get the link again.
[17:41] <lahwran__> eXpl0it3r: settings->preferences->displays
[17:41] <goltoof> maco:  i go to system > prefs > monitors   .. it tells me to use my card vendor settings
[17:41] <maco> lahwran__: but nvidia doesnt work with xrandr, so wouldnt work with the gnomey xrandr config tool
[17:41] <goltoof> lahwran__:  i'm not confusing him... what's your deal?
[17:41] <glassrose> heya, I am getting a SIGTRAP when trying to launch Empathy 2.32 since a couple of days. I got a stack trace:   http://pastebin.com/b8KisTkk  Any hints?
[17:41] <lahwran__> eXpl0it3r: sorry, settings->preferences->monitors
[17:41] <dom96> nit-wit: http://pastebin.com/LfachmnT
[17:41] <Sean93> what should I use to split a mp4 in linux? I am reading how to do it with ffmpeg, but i can only see how to do it by setting your own time. I want to split it right down the middle, without me having to specify the time.
[17:41] <maco> goltoof: sorry, when you said "display manager" to me that meant like... GDM or KDM or XDM...
[17:42] <nit-wit> dom96, thanks hold on
[17:42] <dom96> It seems it's looking for the root.disk on the wrong drive.
[17:42] <lahwran__> maco: but he said fresh install. fresh install, people!
[17:42] <maco> goltoof: ie, the login screen
[17:42] <maco> lahwran__: fresh instsall doesnt determine hardware!
[17:42] <lahwran__> but it does determine that you haven't installed the special drivers
[17:42] <maco> lahwran__: some hardware *does not work* with xrandr
[17:42] <lahwran__> because it's *fresh*
[17:42] <maco> lahwran__: different people's definition of "fresh" varies. it could just mean "i didnt upgrade from an old release"
[17:42] <goltoof> lahwran__:  i know he said fresh install, but depending on what his gfx card is he'll have to install vendor drivers, which may or may not allow use of the default interface
[17:43] <dom96> nit-wit: Thanks for taking a look, i hope you'll find a solution!
[17:43] <shawnti> Sean93: doom9.org
[17:43] <goltoof> lahwran__:   i've been through this many times   ;)
[17:43] <lahwran__> goltoof: as soon as one installs something it cannot be called fresh
[17:43] <lahwran__> I'm well aware of the nvidia settings, I use them
[17:43] <eXpl0it3r> the only thing i can config is where the displays are positioned, and the resolution refresh rate, but not which one is primary
[17:43] <maco> lahwran__: if i say "fresh" i mean "i installed it from a cd in the last month-ish"
[17:43] <nit-wit> dom96, so the wubi in XP isn't booting as that the problem
[17:43] <BluesKaj> phpjim, well if you need windows for any reason , it would have been best to install it before installing linux due to the grub wipe when windows is installed second
[17:43] <lahwran__> maco: time to change that then
[17:43] <phpjim> BluesKaj: no.. I don't want or need windows at all
[17:43] <lahwran__> now. gdm crashed, how do I free it's lock
[17:44] <goltoof> !fresh
[17:44] <maco> lahwran__: doesnt matter. i NEVER install fresh anyway :)
[17:44] <BluesKaj> phpjim, ok
[17:44] <dom96> nit-wit: I actually don't have XP. Don't know why it's still there, must be from the old XP i had.
[17:44] <goltoof> looks like it's undefined so no ones right :P
[17:44] <phpjim> BluesKaj: I've been running linux machines at work for 5 years.. I do not want to use windows! I just can't get this install to work and I am running out of options
[17:44] <venik> I am trying to record using Rhythmbox, but it seems to NOT work, although it did in the past (in 10.04)
[17:45] <BluesKaj> phpjim, my friend over at #kubuntu is looking for the tutorial that he says works in your situation
[17:45] <venik> I am using gnome 64 bits, 10.10
[17:45] <lahwran__> phpjim: wait you've been using linux for 5 years but are only just installing it yourself for the first time now?
[17:45] <shcherbak> lahwran__: ...in work
[17:45] <phpjim> lahwran__: no..  I am having a trouble with an install on a brand new machine
[17:45] <lahwran__> phpjim: ah
[17:45] <phpjim> lahwran__: i've installed linux... countless number of times
[17:45] <brMP> hello
[17:46] <dom96> nit-wit: Any thoughts on how to fix this?
[17:46] <eXpl0it3r> arrr windows is soo much better -.-
[17:46] <goltoof> eXpl0it3r:   go to system > admin > additional drivers
[17:46] <goltoof> eXpl0it3r:    no, it's not.. trust me
[17:46] <steve730> Anyone wanna help me fix a Kvirc problem?
[17:46] <St4cn1r> hello: im having a trouble with setting hostname of my Ubuntu server... in /etc/hostname i wrote this row: "<IP_ADDRESS> klara" without " and in /etc/hosts i have "<IP_ADDRESS> localhost klara" and if command "$ sudo hostname klara" returns
[17:46] <St4cn1r> hostname: the specified hostname is invalid
[17:46] <nit-wit> dom96, you have no Ubuntu installed in any other way per the script, but you have a grub.cfg due to a grub update accepted at one time in the wubi I'm confused as to what your problem is
[17:46] <shcherbak> phpjim: have you run live session?
[17:47] <phpjim> shcherbak: yeah that works great
[17:47] <dom96> nit-wit: Ubuntu can't find root.disk. That's my problem.
[17:47] <lesshaste> hi all
[17:47] <gobbe> St4cn1r: /etc/hostname contains only hostname, no IP
[17:47] <goltoof> eXpl0it3r:  that should show you what hardware drivers are avail for your gpc
[17:47] <lesshaste> when using okular, page up/down mostly don't work to page up and down. Is this a known problem?
[17:47] <brMP> I don't know if this is the correct channel for this, but when I torrent things on ubuntu they don't seem to want to start up; either that or the down speed is ridiculously low whereas I get upwards of 2MB/s on Windows 7. How can I fix this?
[17:47] <lesshaste> I have a suspicion it's not specific to okular and may be an X driver problem
[17:48] <shcherbak> phpjim: get usb and make "presistent" ubuntu on it, and boot from it.
[17:48] <nit-wit> dom96, that s a wubi problem do you have the wubi still it was in XP
[17:48] <phpjim> shcherbak: that's less than ideal
[17:48] <dom96> nit-wit: I have a Wubi installation which I installed from XP.
[17:48] <nit-wit> dom96, right does XP run
[17:49] <shcherbak> phpjim: no i case (dunno whats wrong) your cd failing, usb will not, usb you can update (and in depth test)
[17:49] <dom96> nit-wit: I don't have XP
[17:49] <shcherbak> phpjim: so install from usb (just do not go to live session) should be ok
[17:49] <stefanos> hello, why on youtube i have no comma on views?
[17:50] <dom96> nit-wit: gah, wait. When i said i installed it from XP i meant Win 7
[17:50] <shcherbak> phpjim: eventually use alternative installer
[17:50] <dom96> I installed it from Win 7
[17:50] <phpjim> shcherbak: i was going to try the alternative installer next
[17:50] <goltoof> stefanos:  if it's less than 1,000 there won't be a comma
[17:50] <shcherbak> phpjim: usb might be faster
[17:51] <St4cn1r> gobbe: thank you very much, it works ok now:)
[17:51] <gobbe> usb is quite fast
[17:51] <goltoof> usb ftw
 no it is more than 100000
[17:51] <mobius55> Hey all, Iḿ having some trouble installing ubuntu. when i boot into the media,  I can see the menu, but when I select install or load, the screen will go blank after some brief loading
[17:51] <goltoof> stefanos:  yes, kidding.. try different browsers?
[17:51] <shcherbak> goltoof: is right
[17:51] <BluesKaj> phpjim, yes the alternate would be a good thing to try, you can use the upgrade if you have data that needs to be saved
[17:52] <induz> I am using Dell Card for wireless . Can I use wireshark[kismet] to capture
 :P yes at firefox working, use chromium
[17:52] <jon8> Hey all, I just wanted to let you guys know, I finally took the leap and installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop. This is GREAT!
[17:52] <nit-wit> dom96, your set up s a bit screwed up but I think fixable, post this script in this thread. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1639198
[17:52] <phpjim> BluesKaj: alright..  any word on that tutorial?
[17:52] <presley> hi, did anybody use aircrack software?
[17:52] <BluesKaj> phpjim, sorry not yet
[17:52] <shcherbak> stefanos: thats silly, use opers
mabe can help...
[17:53] <shcherbak> *opera*
opera?
[17:53] <goltoof> shcherbak:  i keep a bootable usb drive on my keychain.. nice knowing i can sit at any machine, run/install ubuntu and completely take it over if i want
[17:53] <nit-wit> dom96, post the bootscript there the author of the thread is on line and other experts
[17:53] <brMP> I don't know if this is the correct channel for this, but when I torrent things on ubuntu they don't seem to want to start up; either that or the down speed is ridiculously low whereas I get upwards of 2MB/s on Windows 7. How can I fix this? If this isn't the right channel can someone redirect me.
[17:53] <goltoof> stefanos:  opera is a client
[17:53] <goltoof> stefanos:  err, browser
[17:53] <dom96> nit-wit: All right
[17:54] <stefanos> yes i know but chromium is better
[17:54] <goltoof> stefanos:  sudo apt-get install opera
[17:54] <BluesKaj> phpjim, go ahea do the alternate install , the tiutorial doesn't seem to be available
[17:54] <mobius55> Hey all, Iḿ having some trouble installing ubuntu. when i boot into the media,  I can see the menu, but when I select install or load, the screen will go blank after some brief loading
[17:54] <Inumedia> Anyone got a SVN client they'd recommend?
[17:54] <goltoof> stefanos:  i agree.. not sure about the comma thing.  chromium has it's share of bugs too
[17:54] <shcherbak> goltoof: i have shelf with small drawers and awesome numbers of usb-drives, I am too lazy to label them, so often running Hardy.
[17:54] <phpjim> Inumedia: check out rabbit vcs
[17:55] <nit-wit> dom96, cool that will be your best move lots of good help here but your setup is a bit convoluted.
[17:55] <Inumedia> Will do
[17:55] <goltoof> shcherbak:  all you need is one ;)
[17:56] <dom96> nit-wit: I hope they will find a solution, i am actually very sad about this.
[17:56] <phpjim> BluesKaj: so what advantages is the alternate installer giving me in this scenario?
[17:56] <BluesKaj> mobius55, try the alternate instal;l if your pc is older or brand new
[17:56] <dom96> it's a feeling i can't even describe...
[17:56] <shcherbak> goltoof: em, have few only for certain tasks... anyway more == better
 no i dont want change browser
[17:56] <phpjim> BluesKaj: also, should i use the 10.10 alternate installer?
[17:56] <mobius55> can anyone help me out with some installation issues???
[17:56] <goltoof> !ask
[17:56] <kippi> hey
 i had flash player problems and change
[17:56] <induz> why I dont see my capture interface on wireshark?? i am using DELL wireless card on my comp
[17:57] <mdpatrick> If I install windows 7 on a machine with ubuntu already on it, how will I fix grub when the windows install whipes it out?
[17:57] <gobbe> induz: maybe your card doesn't support it
[17:57] <kippi> from my terminal, how can I create a new command, so for example if I typed sshlive this would run a script?
[17:57] <mobius55> having some video issues when trying to install. I can get the installation menu up, but once I select an option the screen will go blank
[17:57] <BluesKaj> phpjim, it is abasic text install, which then looks more closely at your pc hardware and gives driver and app options not available on the live cd
[17:57] <nit-wit> mdpatrick, which Ubuntu do you have installed and is it grub2
[17:58] <BluesKaj> !alternate | phpjim
[17:58] <induz> I dont see any interface...may be wireless card is not supported on Kismet
 changed the plug in
[17:58] <shcherbak> kippi: make sure sshlive is inb $PATH
[17:58] <Slashx> Does anyone know where I can find a change list for Ubuntu 10
[17:58] <shcherbak> *in*
[17:58] <phpjim> BluesKaj: alright.. getting the iso now.. thanks
[17:58] <Slashx> Compared to Ubuntu 9?
[17:58] <mdpatrick> nit-wit: 10.10
[17:58] <mobius55> does ubuntu have compatibility issues with ATI cards?
[17:58] <mdpatrick> nit-wit: I dont know what version of grub i have
[17:59] <goltoof> stefanos:  realize that chromium is less stable than chrome.  chrome is the more stable build
yes but flash did't work there...
[18:00] <shcherbak> Slashx: you mean 9.10 > 10.10
[18:00] <nit-wit> mdpatrick, make sure you make a ntfs partition with gparted from a live cd and put the boot flag on it so you can install to it and not make the Ubuntu unallocated then follow this to reinstall grub2 to the mbr.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%202
[18:00] <mobius55> having some video issues when trying to install. I can get the installation menu up, but once I select an option the screen will go blank, any thoughts?
[18:00] <Slashx> shcherbak: Yeah
[18:01] <nit-wit> mdpatrick, if it is 10.10 a staraight install it is grub2
[18:01] <Slashx> I want to see if I can find the security patches or changes made
[18:01] <nit-wit> *straight
[18:01] <shcherbak> Slashx: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickMeerkat/ReleaseNotes
[18:01] <anarchytoday> Is there a xorg configuration wizard in maverick?
[18:01] <ny51bern> hey - any1 have experience with klamav?
[18:01] <nyRednek> hmmm...i have 10.04 running with grub 1 as its bootloader
[18:01] <Slashx> Where is the one for Ubuntu 9?
[18:01] <goltoof> stefanos:  not to blow you off, but you might find help in #chromium
[18:01] <mdpatrick> nit-wit: OK, it's grub2
[18:02] <nyRednek> to fix that, i'd suggest something like plop boot manager
[18:02] <mdpatrick> nit-wit: I just downloaded the CD off the site last night, 64 bit, and ran the install
[18:02] <BluesKaj> klamav | nyRednek
[18:02] <BluesKaj> oops
[18:02] <ny51bern> anyone know what this is? i got it in klamav - heaurstics.broken.executable
[18:02] <BluesKaj> !klamav | ny51bern
[18:03] <shcherbak> Slashx: too many links to chnagelog, araid go for ubuntugeek, or omgubuntu sites
[18:03] <Slashx> Oh
[18:03] <BluesKaj> !antivirus
[18:03] <induz> how can I see who are connected to my router??
[18:03] <Slashx> Ubuntugeek and OMGUbuntu are good sites?
[18:03] <nit-wit> mdpatrick, main thing here is the pre-formatted ntfs to install W7 to otherwise it will build 2 partitons a 200 MIB boot and the OS if this is done with the W7 doing the partitioning you will have the partition next to the OS go unallocated
[18:03] <ny51bern> BluesKaj: i got XP on this comp too. using it to scan there.. but it came back with heaurstics.broken.executable
[18:03] <shcherbak> Slashx: always been here...
[18:03] <ny51bern> BluesKaj: any idea what that is?
[18:03] <xangua> Slashx: no, they are evil :P
[18:04] <ny51bern> !klamav
[18:05] <nit-wit> mdpatrick, so you have installed W7
[18:05] <BluesKaj> ny51bern, no , that's why i decided to drop windows on this pc , I did what I should have to protect the system but I got infected anyway
[18:05] <shcherbak> !clamav > shcherbak
 thank you, will search. didn't know that channel
[18:05] <Kujiseph> hi, how can i set ubuntu for downloading packages only from installation dvd?
[18:06] <ny51bern> BluesKaj: eh i need to keep it for business - im just trying to figure out what this is
[18:06] <mdpatrick> nit-wit: Ahh, I see! I haven't installed windows 7 yet. Ubuntu is running fine. I understand windows will try to install its own bootloader. Is there a way to avoid that altogether, or do I have to let it install and then try to fix grub with the ubuntu live cd after the fact?
[18:06] <BluesKaj> ny51bern, maybe the ppl at #windows can help you
[18:06] <mobius55> i keep losing video when booting into the ubuntu installer, I can see the menu, but after making the selection, i will loose video, any thoughts?
[18:07] <nit-wit> mdpatrick, the bootloader is no big deal that goes in the mbr, it is allowing W7 to partition a unallocated space that will make the next partition next to it go unallocated
[18:07] <ny51bern> BluesKaj: eh, they offer no help
[18:08] <mdpatrick> nit-wit: How do I get around that?
[18:08] <craigbass1976> I need to keep everyone off a web server except localhost.  I've read about the directory section of httpd.conf, but mine is blank.  I don't see any directory section of apache2.conf either, and am wondering if I need to add stuff to that or if I should be putting stuff like this: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/apache-restrict-access-based-on-ip-address-to-selected-directories/  in some other file.  Meh?
[18:08] <nit-wit> mdpatrick, many ubuntu users have lost their setups due to not just building that ntfs first and W7 will instll everything to ine partition rather then build 2
[18:08] <zyrex> hey all
[18:09] <KB1JWQ> craigbass1976: I'd use iptables.
[18:09] <mdpatrick> nit-wit: What do you suggest for building the NTFS partition first???
[18:09] <javahorn> hi
[18:09] <javahorn> where is ubuntu ISO in installation folder of ubuntu?
[18:09] <craigbass1976> KB1JWQ, Why?  Wouldn't it be easier jsut to restrict anyone but localhost to apache?  It's a laptop that has dev sites on it.
[18:10] <mdpatrick> nit-wit: Tools-wise. The last tool I used to manually change a partition was... fdisk? I think? from a windows floppy forever and a day ago?
[18:10] <nit-wit> mdpatrick, use gparted on the live 10.10 cd turn off the swap shrink Ubuntu, then in the unallocated space make a ntfs partition right click the ntfs then flags and click boot. Make sure you do all of this from a live Ubuntu cd and that you turn the swap off before resizing Ubuntu
[18:10] <KB1JWQ> craigbass1976: In that case why not just tell apache to listen only on localhost?
[18:10] <luxurymode> hey all. im running ubuntu on a laptop with ATI radeon video. how do i install ATI?
[18:10] <suspectx> craigbass1976: in the virtual host directive for the default host, let it bind to <IP_ADDRESS>:80 instead of *:80
[18:10] <craigbass1976> KB1JWQ, in apache2.conf?
[18:11] <b00tles_> Im having trouble getting Startup Disk Creator to install the bootloader on my USB drive. I keep getting a "failed to install bootloader" error.
[18:11] <TMN_> i'm considering getting a laptop with nvidia geforce 310m/intel optimus. i know that's not supported on linux but is it easy enough to turn off intel in favour of 310m in ubuntu?
[18:11] <mdpatrick> nit-wit: Is "swap shrink" an option I'll see when I run gparted from the live cd???
[18:12] <AnggaDj98> ny51bern using an av in ubuntu?
[18:12] <nit-wit> mdpatrick, hold on what do you mean by swap shrink
[18:12] <ny51bern> AnggaDj98: scanning Xp with it
[18:13] <javahorn> http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download-- is there ISO after ubuntu installation?
[18:13] <nit-wit> b00tles_, make sure you freshly format the thumb to fat32 before installing
[18:13] <mobius55> should I use the text based installation as opposed to the graphical if I cant get a display on the graphical? does this make a difference with ati cards?
[18:13] <javahorn> i have ubuntu installed in C:\ubuntu
[18:13] <ny51bern> AnggaDj98: you familiar with KlamAV?
[18:13] <mdpatrick> nit-wit: Oh I see you mean... turn off the swap, then shrink ubuntu. What do you mean by "turn off the swap"?
[18:13] <b00tles_> nit-wit: I think I have NTFS format now. Thanks, Ill give that a shot.
[18:14] <suspectx> mobius55: you could try to pass fb=false vga=771 to the kernel
[18:14] <shawnti> how do i stop and start the RPC daemon?
[18:14] <mobius55> suspectx: umm, can you elaborate?
[18:15] <nit-wit> mdpatrick, the swap is a rught click then turn off you will see a lock on it and the exteneded until you do. Most people have the Ubuntu and the swap in a exteneded . Always turn the swap off when messing with partitions
[18:16] <pawel__> ;)
[18:16] <nit-wit> mdpatrick, feel free to take a screen shot of gparted if you like
[18:16] <suspectx> mobius55: on the boot prompt, hit f6 to show the kernel boot params, delete the "---" and "quiet splash" and add "fb=false vga=771" this will fire up a graphical installer
[18:16] <phpjim> BluesKaj: running the alternate cd intall now...  hopefully it works out =\
[18:16] <mdpatrick> nit-wit: Thank you! OK, now about grub2... hehe... how do I fix that after W7 install?
[18:16] <suspectx> mobius55: usually this works, if not, try "cli" installation
[18:16] <kuriouss> I have a dual installtion of Windows 7 and Ubuntu 8.10. I have found there is a drastic difference in volume levels between the two OSes. Ubuntu 8.10 has a very feeble output.Any ideas?
[18:17] <BluesKaj> phpjim, hope is operative word
[18:17] <nit-wit> mdpatrick, just follow this link, two commands.https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%202
[18:17] <dokuhebi_> Is there a way to get the indicator applet to indicate more noticibly when someone messages me in Empathy?  Like, can we make it flash or something?
[18:17] <cody> I trying to configure mdraid on my ubuntu system, but I can't get the kernel to detect the array.  When I boot from a live CD it detects the array just fine
[18:17] <BluesKaj> kuriouss, open alasmixer, crank up the ctrls
[18:17] <tripelb> well bless me. I didnt have to ask. Googled then found "Disk Usage Analyzer" in apps>accessories. - So now I'm thinking, is it in Control Center (a gizmo I found that shows all the system options in a window instead of a menu) and there is "Disc Utility".  -- I found some page for Windows users using Ubuntu.  This broadened my ideas of where to look. And to realize I'm still "thinking windows". - Happy Holidays of lights!
[18:17] <mobius55> suspectx: the main issue that im having is that i loose video once I make a selection from the installation menu using the live installation, just want to be clear
[18:18] <mdpatrick> nit-wit: You rule...  Thanks a ton. Your name is very ironic. :)
[18:18] <goltoof> tripelb:  also man du
[18:18] <nit-wit> mdpatrick, this is an area I'm specialize in boot problems
[18:18] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[18:19] <suspectx> mobius55: sure, had the same here on new shiny dell notebook, I could only use "cli". If you are unsure about kernel boot params, hit "F1" while in boot menu to get a quick overview, will clarify many things
[18:19] <b00tles_> nit-wit: I reformatted the USB drive to FAT, and tried to install the bootloader again. Still getting an error. Now it just says "Installation Failed."
[18:19] <roselush> I am going to sleeping now !
[18:19] <roselush> good bye guys!
[18:19] <nit-wit> b00tles_, do you need the persitance
[18:19] <b00tles_> What do you mean?
[18:19] <nit-wit> *persistence
[18:20] <mobius55> suspectx: thanks for the help, will try
[18:20] <b00tles_> nit-wit: what do you mean?
[18:20] <suspectx> mobius55: good luck, come back if unsure
[18:20] <nit-wit> b00tles_, the persistence allows saved changes limited though
[18:20] <mobius55> will do
[18:20] <diego_> non dago?
[18:20] <b00tles_> nit-wit: I have no idea what this means.
[18:21] <Mr_Grim> hey
[18:21] <Mr_Grim> i accidently overwrote a log file and I am trying to get it back. filesystem is using ext3. are there any built in utils that can do this?
[18:22] <agroker> tried to update my 10.04 system and aptitude downloads and install all kinds of Mono packages right now - do I need them? would it be safe to remove them?
[18:22] <nit-wit> b00tles_, this is another good loader that has no persistence. http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/  the pesistence means that if you wanted a thumb loaded and wanted you add anything the persistence part allows this a casper-rw file=memory
[18:22] <b00tles_> nit-wit: I see. Lemme try that loader and see how it goes.
[18:22] <tripelb> goltoof - thanks. And that reminds me, there's something  -h   that I have used but forgot. If you remind me I'd get even happier.
[18:22] <nit-wit> b00tles_, are you just loading it to install?
[18:23] <b00tles_> Nit-wit: yea. I want to upgrade from 9.*
[18:23] <manlymat183> Anyone here use t-mobile?
[18:24] <nit-wit> b00tles_, this will be a fresh install so it will over write the 9 if you install in the same partition not upgrade
[18:24] <tripelb> goltoof - amazing. I looked in the terminal history. First I went back a long time, them started looking and foundit it!!  df -h
[18:24] <b00tles_> nit-wit yea I know. I keep everything I want on an external drive and wipe by onboard regularly.
[18:25] <nit-wit> b00tles_, yor a smarty person thats the way it should be done.:)
[18:25] <dokuhebi_> Is there a way to get the indicator applet to indicate more noticibly when someone messages me in Empathy?  Like, can we make it flash or something?
[18:25] <b00tles_> nit-wit Im probably going to RM it for fun before rebooting into the bootable media.
[18:26] <nit-wit> b00tles_,  I would wipe it first with gparted
[18:26] <goltoof> tripelb:  the -h command is common among many apps, and pretty much stands for "human readable".. ps -h, du -h, df -h, etc
[18:26] <lieuwe> hey, i have a program that expects some files somewhere, but i dont know where it expects them, so i was wondering if its possible to see which files a program tries to access
[18:26] <suspectx> lieuwe: strace
[18:26] <tripelb> goltoof, thanks.  (I found http://www.watchingthenet.com/ubuntu-guide-for-windows-users-how-to-check-hard-drive-disk-space.html)
[18:26] <Didji> I want to synchronize a folder on my windows machine with a the htdocs folder of apache on my ubuntu machine.  What's the best way to go about this?
[18:26] <goltoof> tripelb:  df -h might be more what you're looking for
[18:27] <nit-wit> b00tles_, use gparted on the thumb then install
[18:27] <lieuwe> suspectx: thanks
[18:27] <goltoof> tripelb:   coolio
[18:27] <Didji> It has to update the apache folder everytime I save anything.
[18:27] <tripelb> goltoof, thanks.
[18:27] <suspectx> Didji: try dokan sshfs to mount your apache folder on your windows machine
[18:27] <goltoof> tripelb:  npr
[18:28] <b00tles_> nit-wit will do.
[18:28] <Didji> suspectx: that means the actual files would reside on the apache machine's hdd?
[18:28] <thewarlock> will someone tell this newbe how to run an exploit on a target
[18:28] <suspectx> Didji: yes
[18:28] <goltoof> thewarlock:  running exploits isn't something for noobs
[18:28] <thewarlock> really why is that
[18:28] <Tyrnis> plop all
[18:28] <Didji> suspectx: yeah, that's a problem.  I need the files to live on my windows machine.
[18:29] <Didji> Is there no way to do it the other way round?
[18:29] <Didji> Somehow synch with ftp?
[18:29] <suspectx> Didji: hit google for dirsync win32
[18:29] <Didji> k, thanks.
[18:29] <goltoof> thewarlock:  try learning how to do all the system admin basics, navigation, user/group admin, network admin, before you even consider programming, before you even consider exploiting
[18:29] <goltoof> thewarlock:  just my $.02
[18:29] <Acer_> hi!
[18:30] <thewarlock> ok probably a good idea
[18:30] <nit-wit> Acer_, usually
[18:30] <goltoof> thewarlock:  look up honeypot computing and you'll see why
[18:30] <thewarlock> I know most of the basics maybe i need to learn more
[18:30] <nit-wit> Acer_, whats up
[18:30] <phpjim> BluesKaj: is there an way that I can guarantee that this is a display issue?
[18:30] <Didji> suspectx: you sure this application is kosher?  The English is pretty borken.
[18:31] <Acer_> Can someone help me?
[18:31] <nit-wit> Acer_, give us the lowdown
[18:31] <phpjim> BluesKaj: omg booting for the first time after alternate install!
[18:32] <suspectx> Didji: well it seems to be made by some germans, that would explain the english, I used it quite some time, but I can not guarantee for anything of course
[18:32] <phpjim> BluesKaj: same thing =\
[18:32] <Didji> suspectx: k, fair enough.
[18:33] <colah__> I upgraded a computer from 9.04 to 10.10 (by a fresh install). The monitor worked fine during the install but doesn't work past grub now. I have a chrooted terminal from the old intstall. Help?
[18:33] <inifaress> Bonsoir :)
[18:33] <mdpatrick> The slow performance when I fullscreen youtube is because I'm on AMD64 isn't it??
[18:33] <goltoof> !fr
[18:34] <mdpatrick> (this machine has good specs)
[18:35] <b00tles_> nit-wit; UNetbootin says that I have to first mount the volume to a mountpoint. I took out and reinserted the thumb drive, and I still get the same error.
[18:35] <_Tristan> http://pastebin.ca/2030690 what should I put in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[18:35] <kuriouss> I have a dual installtion of Windows 7 and Ubuntu 8.10. I have found there is a drastic difference in volume levels between the two OSes. Ubuntu 8.10 has a very feeble output.Is this an inherent driver issue?Using the ALSA mixer i have maxed all parameters but to no effect.
[18:36] <goltoof> _Tristan:  man interfaces
[18:36] <dan> I installed netbook edition 10.10... How easy is it to switch from mutter/unity back to regular gnome?
[18:36] <_Tristan> goltoof: I've read it, I just want a second opinion because I've never done it before and it will cost me lots of money if I do it wrong
[18:37] <phpjim> BluesKaj: ping me when you're back around.. I think I am making progress
[18:37] <OerHeks> dan, install gnome desktop, and change GDM at login
[18:37] <goltoof> _Tristan: well, linux networking isn't ubuntu specific, try #networking for a third opinion
[18:38] <goltoof> _Tristan:  you may want to try on a test interface, ie, another ethernet port
[18:38] <_Tristan> goltoof: how would I do that?
[18:39] <whatsdoom> how would you rewrite you mbr for grub2
[18:40] <brMP> If I want xfce, do I install it over ubuntu? If so, how do I do this?
[18:40] <goltoof> _Tristan:  apparently you're entering hostile territory with no experience, i highly recommend hiring a consultant to work on it for you, if this is a production machine
[18:41] <[thor]> brmp: xfce is a window manager, if i am not mistaken.. you would install it, and then log out, and select Xfce as your desktop environment when you log back in.
[18:41] <dan> OerHeks, is there a sudo apt-get install gdm or something simple like that?
[18:41] <b00tles_> For some reason, my distro isnt automatically mounting my USB drive, and I want it to so I can install a bootloader for 10.10 Anybody know how to mount it manually or something?
[18:41] <goltoof> _Tristan: what are you trying to do? switch to static ip?
[18:41] <brMP> thor: thanks
[18:41] <_Tristan> goltoof: yeah, for colocation
[18:42] <dan> oh it looks like I already have that.. maybe I can just switch at login
[18:42] <goltoof> _Tristan:  http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/
[18:42] <[thor]> brMP: you can also try #xfce to ask specific questions
[18:42] <OerHeks> dan sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[18:42] <OerHeks> dan that should be gnome desktop
[18:42] <_Tristan> goltoof: thank you
[18:43] <mdpatrick> Oerheks: He got connection resetted
[18:43] <goltoof> _Tristan:  it's a pretty simple config, but it's possible it won't work right off and cut your access.. tread carefully
[18:43] <BluesKaj> phpjim, ping :)
[18:43] <Wartoghex> Hi guys i've installed nvidia drivers and nvtvout but i cant get tvout my television i am using backtrack.
[18:44] <Sean93> I'm trying to split an mp4 in two using ffmpeg. the first part worked fine using "ffmpeg-i ./After.Life/d-after.life-720p.mp4 -vcodec copy -acodec copy -ss 00:00:00 -t 00:51:26.685 ./After.Life/"After.Life Part 1.mp4"". the second section however does not. it looks as though it is working but it comes up all zeros instead. this is the command i used for the second part, "ffmpeg -i ./After.Life/d-after.life-720p.mp4 -vcodec c
[18:44] <Sean93> opy -acodec copy -ss 00:51:26.685 -t 00:51:26.685 ./After.Life/"After.Life Part 2.mp4""
[18:44] <Didji> suspectx: this program stops working after the trial period?
[18:44] <mdpatrick> whats the benefit of seperating off your /home partition from your system partition??????
[18:45] <goltoof> mdpatrick:  encryption
[18:45] <b00tles_> For some reason, my distro isnt automatically mounting my USB drive, and I want it to so I can install a bootloader for 10.10 Anybody know how to mount it manually or something?\
[18:45] <suspectx> Didji: not sure as I switched to dokan quite soon
[18:45] <goltoof> mdpatrick:  that is, if you encrypt the partition
[18:46] <Didji> suspectx: is Dokan going to be a viable option for me (I don't know what it does).
[18:46] <BluesKaj> !backtrack | Wartoghex
[18:46] <_Tristan> mdpatrick: also preventing users from filling up the drive
[18:46] <suspectx> Didji: just to make sure http://www.dirsyncpro.org/ this is what we are talking about?
[18:47] <induz> #ubuntu-in @ irc.freenode.net  how can I join this chat
[18:47] <BluesKaj> induz, click on it
[18:47] <nanovany> How can I delete window$ viruses from ubuntu?
[18:47] <IdleOne> induz: type /join #ubuntu-in
[18:47] <mman> anybody knows any program that can read .drw files??
[18:47] <shcherbak> induz: /join #that cjannel
[18:47] <b00tles_> For some reason, my distro isnt automatically mounting my USB drive, and I want it to so I can install a bootloader for 10.10 Anybody know how to mount it manually or something?\
[18:47] <Didji> suspectx: Oh, I was talking about this: http://www.archersoft.com/
[18:48] <goltoof> nanovany:  depends on the virus, but overall a bad idea
[18:48] <suspectx> Didji: well probably not as the files will reside on the apache machine. you could still use dokan and sync your "local dokan" drive with your dev folder(s)
[18:48] <mman> anybody knows any program that can read .drw files??
[18:48] <goltoof> nanovany:  consider linux and windows handle files differently, you can screw up windows by accessing it's files from linux
[18:48] <Morbus> i know about dpkg --get-selections, but is there anyway to get a oneliner or version number in the report?
[18:48] <Morbus> something that explains what each package is, etc.
[18:49] <BluesKaj> b00tles_, mount -o remount,rw /path/to/drive
[18:49] <Didji> Is there no way to have a shared directory on a windows machine be the mounted on an Ubuntu machine, and then set httpd.conf to use that mounted directory as it's base directory?
[18:50] <mman> any program for .drw files??
[18:50] <mman> any program for .drw files??
[18:50] <goltoof> !repeat
[18:50] <suspectx> Didji: you could mount it from the ubuntu machine: mount -t cifs -o user=foo,pass=bar,domain=qouz,rw,noexec,noatime //windowze/share /mnt/here and set up apache to have its files in /mnt/here
[18:50] <nanovany> aaah, thanks goltoof..
[18:50] <nanovany> I see jje
[18:50] <Didji> suspectx: apache would be cool with that?
[18:51] <shcherbak> mman: what supposed to be in .drw?
[18:51] <goltoof> nanovany:  yw, it's happened to me before, whole os was destroyed and all i did was swap some files from within ubuntu
[18:51] <b00tles_> BluesKaj: I got this error. "mount: can't find /dev/sdc1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab"
[18:51] <goltoof> shcherbak:  cad file
[18:51] <lieuwe> how do i see which java packages are installed?
[18:52] <suspectx> Didji: depends, you must make shure, apache will have access rights to /mnt/here and unix is picky about lower/uppercase while windows is not
[18:52] <goltoof> mman:  qcad
[18:52] <BluesKaj> b00tles_, does your usb show up in nautilus/network
[18:52] <Didji> suspectx: cool.  Thanks for the help.

[18:53] <Ceno3x> hey guys
[18:53] <Ceno3x> has anyone noticed any problems with burning cds in 10.04?
[18:54] <b00tles_> Blueskaj: No, it doesnt.
[18:54] <martin__> hi
[18:54] <mman> goltoof, with thatone i can read/create .drw files?
[18:54] <b00tles_> Blueskaj: No, it doesnt.
[18:54] <Ceno3x> my laptop won't burn, desktop won't burn... is it the kernel? brasero?
[18:54] <goltoof> mman:  drw is cad drawing, for cad programs, qcad is a cad program
[18:55] <OY1R> Ceno3x, im sure it will burn if you poor some diesel on it :P
[18:55] <cr215> i have some questions of opinion
[18:55] <BluesKaj> b00tles_, run lsusb in the terminal , see what's listed
[18:55] <goltoof> mman:  hmm, not seeing drw, seeing dxf though
[18:55] <goltoof> mman:  dxf is more standard cad format
[18:55] <Ceno3x> OY1R: oh I've thought about some very creative methods of making my problems go away, believe me lol
[18:55] <cr215> what do you ppl think is the best itc client for ubuntu?   i have been usine chatzilla for irefox but  iwould like something more
[18:56] <mman> goltoof, i know, but a lot of my clients use autocad soo they send me those files
[18:56] <OY1R> i bet you have
[18:56] <b00tles_> BluesKaj: I dont see anything about the USB drive there.
[18:57] <Morbus> if i install dovecot-postfix, should i also install dovecot-imapd?
[18:57] <BluesKaj> b00tles_, paste the output in pastebin,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[18:57] <youlun> cr215: i've heard xchat is good
[18:57] <goltoof> mman:  i know a lot of tools in windows for converting dwg to dxf. not much info out there for linux tools
[18:57] <BluesKaj> !irc
[18:57] <goltoof> mman:  for viewing or converting dwg
[18:58] <mman> goltoof, im just trying to open the .drw file, but i cant with qcad
[18:58] <neiz> cr215: xchat is good, but I prefer Konversation
[18:58] <martin__> anyone knows how to sync music to an ipad 4.2.1? I can mount, but not see music.
[18:58] <goltoof> neiz:  irssi ftw
[18:58] <suspectx> BluesKaj: well everyone knows irssi is the best client anyway *runsaway*
[18:58] <cr215> youlun:  ive een a lot of recmdendations or xchat in ubuntuforus
[18:58] <neiz> goltoof: I'll check it out :P
[18:58] <nit-wit> suspectx, get them.:)
[18:58] <b00tles_> BlueKaj: http://paste.ubuntu.com/548032/
[18:58] <thewarlock> how are you doing my fellow peeps
[18:58] <BluesKaj> suspectx, yeah for guiless-pursts :)
[18:58] <youlun> cr215: you should check that link from ubotto
[18:58] <b00tles_> BluesKaj: http://paste.ubuntu.com/548032/
[18:59] <cr215> neilz:  is conversion cgonna be slower on gnome than kde?  cuz kolourpaint is but i love it anyways
[18:59] <BluesKaj> purists rather

[19:00] <tas> hey, why transmission won't start downloading torrents right away? X_X
[19:01] <phpjim> BluesKaj: added nomodeset to end of grub boot line and it booted up!
[19:01] <nit-wit> tas torrents only start if they are available
[19:02] <tas> nit-wit, ALL torrents don't start right away..
[19:02] <brontoeee> what would be a valid guide on how to start google-earth on maverick?
[19:02] <goltoof> mman:  http://lx-viewer.sourceforge.net/index.php   that's the only thing i know that exists for dwg, but the last stable update was 2005
[19:03] <tas> nit-wit, they start right away in utorrent, I keep my torrents synced
[19:03] <b00tles_> nit-wit: Still having problems. Now, it says my USB isnt mounted, and 9.04 isnt automatically mounting it when I insert it.
[19:03] <BluesKaj> phpjim, could you explain how you did it , I'd like to add it to my methods file ?
[19:03] <nit-wit> tas depends are you uploading or downloading it it a P2P
[19:04] <tas> nit-wit, downloading, it had 4000 seeders, and it shows 0 in transmission..
[19:04] <goltoof> tas:   check  edit > prefs > torrents    make sure start when added is checked
[19:04] <goltoof> tas:  that's all i got
[19:04] <nit-wit> tas try deluge  like it much better transmission has always been problematic for me in ease of use.
[19:04] <phpjim> BluesKaj: held down shift to get the grub options menu..  pressed e on the ubuntu installation, and then on the line that starts with linux in the menuconfig for that boot option, I added nomodeset and then presed cntrl+x to boot
[19:05] <MaWaLe> when i try to download a torrent file wich is higher than 4 Gb with transmission on an EXT4 filesystem, Transmission craches !!!
[19:05] <nit-wit> b00tles_, does the thumb show in gparted in 9
[19:05] <slashme> Was trying to build xmms, and it wants libglib1.2 - this is deprecated on Lucid, replaced by libglib2.0.  xmms doesn't build with that!  Any ideas (and yes, I'm running audacious right now, but a friend needs a lighter player, so I'm trying to find the best instructions)
[19:05] <phpjim> BluesKaj: the machine booted in a really low resolution, and then I installed the latest drivers for my video card, and now everyting appears to be fine
[19:05] <wrd> slashme: build libglib1.2 yourself?
[19:05] <xangua> MaWaLe: ubuntu version¿ transmission version¿
[19:05] <nit-wit> b00tles_, do you have gparted installed in the ubuntu install
[19:06] <b00tles_> nit-wit: Installed gparted now.
[19:06] <b00tles_> *installing
[19:06] <slashme> wrd, Oh, right, I never thought of that ;-] thanks!
[19:06] <tas> nit-wit, goltoof thanks, I deleted the torrent and re added it, and in a minute it started. and I think I am going to get deluge. thanks!!
[19:06] <suspectx> slashme: why don't you use the prebuild xmms2?
[19:06] <MaWaLe> xangua:  Meerkat (but even with older version)
[19:06] <BluesKaj> phpjim, great, glad to hear it ...did you find a tutorial or did one of our resident ubuntu gurus help you out ?
[19:06] <slashme> Does it have a gui?
[19:06] <nit-wit> b00tles_, lok there you should format the thumb from there to a fat32
[19:06] <slashme> suspectx, does it have a gui?
[19:06] <iksf> Friend of mine has got a HP ProLiant MicroServer for amateur server use. Trying to install Ubuntu server on it however on the partitioning only option is iSCSI, dont know where to go from here, help appreciated
[19:07] <nit-wit> tas no problem
[19:07] <MaWaLe> xangua:  Transmission 2.04 (11151)
[19:07] <phpjim> BluesKaj: unfortunately no one helped me out...  I was just looking through grub options and figured i would give it a try
[19:07] <wrd> slashme: you might also want to consider other players xmms actually uses gtk1 ...
[19:07] <xangua> MaWaLe: latest transmission eis 2.13, try the ppa https://launchpad.net/~transmissionbt/+archive/ppa
[19:07] <xangua> is*
[19:07] <suspectx> slashme: there are some available
[19:07] <suspectx> slashme: check: apt-cache search xmms2-client
[19:07] <nit-wit> xangua, transmission doesn't encrypt
[19:07] <slashme> wrd, suspectx, what's the lightest option?
[19:07] <MaWaLe> xangua:  so you think that this issue is a bug in this version (i mean the 2.04 one)?
[19:08] <BluesKaj> ok phpjim , nice job , I'll have to check that out
[19:08] <suspectx> slashme: mp3blaster is a cli player
[19:08] <suspectx> thats light
[19:08] <slashme> suspectx, I used that for years, but on lucid it has a strange performance bug.
[19:08] <slashme> Open on launchpad...
[19:08] <wrd> slashme: what about this gxmms2 ? (never tried that though)
[19:08] <b00tles_> nit-wit: I get this message "E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)

[19:10] <histo> marks256: you'll probably just have to use alsa from the ppa if it's newer hardware

[19:20] <iksf> histo: what should i do
[19:20] <Thanix> yuler: Impossible, deleting partitions formats them.
[19:20] <marks256> histo, going down for a reboot. I'll try watching some Dr. Who after the reboot and test if the glitches are gone! :) thanks
[19:20] <Thanix> yuler: Delete and replace them, then run disk recovery.
[19:21] <yuler> Thanix: I split sda1 into sda1 and sda2.  I can't merge them back?

[19:32] <tas> I have been hearing banshee became default player for ubuntu, but after updating my buntu, why theres no banshee? old users have to like add it themselves??

[19:33] <histo> marks256: not unless the kernel changed they should be fine
[19:33] <clakes1> gah... think i've missed something big such as paragon extfs (given it really works)

[19:33] <gaz00> _psychic_, how does recovery mode work (fail safe graphics)?
[19:33] <TMN_> i'm considering getting a laptop with nvidia geforce 310m/intel optimus. i know that's not supported on linux but is it easy enough to turn off intel in favour of 310m in ubuntu?
[19:33] <histo> marks256: what is the video glitchy in? playing a movie file or something?
[19:33] <marks256> izinucs, nope. same hard drive as my last. new motherboard/processor though
[19:33] <_psychic_> gaz00: how do I do that?
[19:33] <tas> Is there a way to get the windows rating of songs in ubuntu in any way? D:
[19:33] <histo> tas: windows rating?
[19:33] <marks256> histo, every 5 mintues or so it just skipps a few frames. same for games
[19:33] <izinucs> marks256: did you install the drivers manually or use System>Admin>Hardware drivers?
[19:33] <gaz00> _psychic_, press shift on reboot until the GRUB menu appears
[19:34] <_psychic_> gaz00: trying now
[19:34] <goltoof> histo:  the "star" ratings for mp3 you see in wmp
[19:34] <marks256> izinucs, that's not the problem. it was working before, but now that i have newer hardware, i'm sure things need to be reconfigured (too lazy to do a fresh install)
[19:34] <histo> goltoof: I don't use windows so I have no idea what you guys are talking about.
[19:34] <izinucs> marks256: answer the question and I might be able to point you in the right direction
[19:35] <_psychic_> gaz00: do I just pick "resume normal boot"?
[19:35] <histo> tas: if it puts the star rating in id3 tag then maybe you can but I doubt it does
[19:35] <Volkodav> I have a system hanging at boot after fsck saying init:udevtrigger main process(415) terminated with status 1 same about post-stop process and sda1 clean and then just blinking

[19:35] <Volkodav> 10.04 64 bit
[19:35] <_psychic_> gaz00: my bad it's failsafe graphics mode one

[19:35] <goltoof> histo:   whatever, peace
[19:35] <marks256> izinucs, i believe when i first installed nvidia drivers i used the proprietary driver utility that comes with ubuntu

[19:37] <PenguinUA> hi all)
[19:37] <izinucs> marks256: ok.. perhaps you're in the same boat as me.. the driver utility installs the 195.x.x driver which I"ve found "not great" on my 8200 card.  I installed the PPA X-Swat which has the latest nvidia drivers and will also update as new ones come out.  That might fix your issue..

[19:39] <histo> MyUbuntuIsBroken: select ubuntu and hold the left shift key down to get the grub menu
[19:39] <izinucs> marks256: sure.. a PPA is a "personal package archive" that can be listed and used as part of your normal package system.  Often it has updated software that is not produced or supported by ubuntu directly.. I'll get you a link

[19:39] <histo> MyUbuntuIsBroken: then you can try booting recovery mode
[19:39] <MyUbuntuIsBroken> ok

[19:40] <goltoof> tas:  i don't use rhythmbox, but right click on an mp3 > properties > details   you'll see ratings
[19:41] <izinucs> marks256: once you add the ppa then you do a .. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade.. if the driver you're currently using was tagged as "Current" then the ppa will replace the driver and after a reboot you should be rocking and rolling.
[19:41] <marks256> izinucs, nvidia's website claims that 260.19.29 is the newest driver for linux...
[19:41] <tas> goltoof, thats a very nice way to rate a song XDD

[19:42] <izinucs> marks256: the driver you mentioned is the one in the ppa
[19:42] <ubuntunotbroken> is everything fixed now or ?" i didn't see recovery  module happen
[19:42] <zulax> can i do file system check of my remote server using ssh?
[19:42] <marks256> izinucs, i'm just wondering if the video drivers are actually the problem? It was working perfect across my last 2 motherboards
[19:42] <marks256> izinucs, checking out the ppa now
[19:43] <BluesKaj> marks256, that isn't necesarily the right one for your card, both linuxboxes here use 2 differnt nvidia drivers on maverick
