[14:53] <Slart> laudrup: you might want to check the $HOME enviroment variable
[14:53] <mutante> subspider: you might want to add a "-" when switching the user to keep environment variables
[14:53] <blitzo> slart, alt-f2 and type "main menu" says there aint no such beast
[14:53] <laudrup> this dosnt work, myname/home/Desktop/testFile.txt
[14:54] <blitzo> guthi when you installed ubunti did you do a side-by-side installation?
[14:54] <subspider> mutante, can you give me an example
[14:54] <avis> merger between microsoft will happen 2 days
[14:54] <daglees__> I'm trying to perform a low level format on a faulty HDD using Ubuntu 10.04 live cd but how'd I go about mounting this partition in the first place? It has no filesystem
[14:54] <subspider> !pt
[14:54] <daglees__> I don't mind erasing the entire HDD
[14:54] <om26er> which package provide pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy
[14:55] <mutante> subspider: give me an example of what you type
[14:55] <blitzo> daglees__, what do you mean by "faulty"?
[14:55] <guthi> blitzo, no, i did a custom partion
[14:55] <AnxiousNut> how can i get the [file/edit/etc] menus off of the applet indicator of my netbook(running UNE 10.04)!
[14:55] <daglees__> blitzo, I think it has a bad sector
[14:55] <mutante> subspider: for example:  "sudo su -" instead of "sudo su"
[14:55] <blitzo> daglees__, then buy a new one
[14:55] <om26er> AnxiousNut, ^^
[14:55] <subspider> ok mutante thnks
[14:56] <om26er> AnxiousNut, which menu?
[14:56] <daglees__> I will
[14:56] <daglees__> There's no way to mount /dev/sda if it has no filesystem?
[14:56] <blitzo> guthi can you fdisk it and still see the windows partition?
[14:56] <blitzo> daglees__, you don't mount it in order to format it
[14:56] <llutz> daglees__: since you mount filesystems, not partitions: no
[14:57] <Imagine> does anyone have a tutorial to use xchat for me?
[14:57] <blitzo> Imagine, google it you will find info
[14:57] <guthi> blitzo, ya, i got it mounted, and i can see all the files in the partition, only problem is i dont see a option for it boot into windows
[14:57] <blitzo> daglees__, what are you trying to accomplish with a dead harddisk?
[14:58] <AnxiousNut> om26er, hey there om26er! It's weird, suddenly the mac like menus popped up in my indicator applet on the gnome panel of my netbook! I want the regular indicator applet, without the ugly menu thingie!
[14:58] <blitzo> guthi you will have to edit grub which i can't tell you how to do BUT i do have it bookmarked, hang on
[14:58] <mutante> sree: DownThemAll Firefox extension seemed decent to me.. but "what is the best X"-questions are always hard
[14:58] <daglees__> blitzo,  it's not dead; I was hoping a low level format would use a spare sector and hide the bad sector. the system runs fine  but will freeze sometimes
[14:58] <om26er> AnxiousNut, right click on it and remove..
[14:59] <om26er> AnxiousNut, package name is indicator-applet-appmenu if you want to remove it
[14:59] <AnxiousNut> om26er, <.< then it would remove the whole indicator applet! As for the package, i didnt install that!
[14:59] <guthi> blitzo, ya, i have been trying to mess around with grub for sometime but cant do anything. tried putting a chain loader but it doesnt seem to help, but maybe your bookmark ill help
[15:00] <om26er> AnxiousNut, no it wont
[15:00] <AnxiousNut> om26er, tried it~
[15:00] <jo_> hi, i have a question regarding the encrypted home partition.. it will automount when i login as my users today. it means basically that if you have root-access you can change the password of the user and get it mounted
[15:00] <jo_> how do i mount i manualla with a unique password on login to gnome?
[15:00] <jo_> manually
[15:01] <laudrup> Slart, is there a command which tells me the full path of a file in command line ?
[15:01] <jo_> i dont want it to mount when i login with my user
[15:01] <blitzo> guthi http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/grub-2.html
[15:01] <jo_> are the password for mounting the encrypted home partition saved anywhere?
[15:02] <laudrup> I get this error
[15:02] <laudrup> 'PHP Error 2: fopen(~/home/Desktop/testFile.txt) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory.
[15:02] <jo_> laudrup: pwd?
[15:02] <nisstyre65> laudrup: whereis
[15:02] <guthi> blitzo, thanks, i will see if that helps, do u know somewhere i can talk to someone who might know more about grub2?
[15:02] <nisstyre65> ex: whereis python
[15:02] <sree> mutante: I didn't asked anything !
[15:03] <blitzo> daglees__, low level format is (or was) done by the disk controller no by linux - and i don't know how you kick it off.  it's been 15 years since i needed to low level a harddisk
[15:03] <jo_> 16:00 < jo_> hi, i have a question regarding the encrypted home partition.. it will automount when i login as my users today. it means  basically that if you have root-access you can change the password of the user and get it mounted
[15:03] <jo_> i want to mount it manually
[15:03] <gryllida> how do I unzip in bash?
[15:03] <jo_> gryllida: apt-get install unzip
[15:03] <blitzo> guthi this is the place - what you do is ask your question every 5 mins - ppl are coming in and out all the time
[15:03] <gryllida> I don't have apt-get access
[15:04] <Steve973> Hello.  Anyone have a recommendation for a web front end for uploading files via https?
[15:04] <guthi> blitzo, aah, ok, thanks a lot, i will keep trying my luck
[15:04] <DarkNemesis> !seen bodhi
[15:04] <Pici> gryllida: unzip file.zip
[15:04] <gryllida> jo_. unzip is installed here though, thanks for the keyword!
[15:04] <jo_> i, i have a question regarding the encrypted home partition.. it will automount when i login as my users today. it  means  basically that if you have root-access you can change the password of the user and get it mounted
[15:04] <jo_> 16:03 < jo_> i want to mount it manually
[15:04] <blitzo> can anyone tell me what the name command name is of the applet that displays the main menu on the top left panel?  i need to be able to invoke it from the command line
[15:05] <hotstew> hey guys
[15:05] <AnxiousNut> I seriously dont know how the package got installed on my netbook! However, purging it solved the problem!! Thanks for telling me the name of the magical package :)
[15:05] <blitzo> guthi i have done it with original grub, it's not real comp,licated
[15:05] <AnxiousNut> om26er that was for you
[15:05] <hotstew> I managed to get through the graphical login after I deinstalled gdm
[15:05] <om26er> AnxiousNut, ;)
[15:06] <hotstew> then I got into xterm, reinstalled gdm and opened gnome-manager
[15:06] <hotstew> which is pretty basic though
[15:06] <hotstew> what do I do from here?
[15:06] <hotstew> I'm like an earthworm worming his way through XD
[15:07] <blitzo> Steve973, what do you mean by a web front end?
[15:07] <blitzo> can anyone tell me what the name command name is of the applet that displays the main menu on the top left panel?  i need to be able to invoke it from the command line
[15:07] <guthi> blitzo, do u mean grub legacy (the one before this crappy version2) or do u mean grub 2?
[15:07] <hotstew> basically I need to get normal gnome system back so I can log into that
[15:08] <Pici> blitzo: They aren't applications that can be run on their own, they are applets./
[15:08] <blitzo> guthi read the link i gave you - i think there is enough info to do what you want
[15:08] <nisstyre65> hotstew: have you tried running startx?
[15:08] <guthi> blitzo, thanks man
[15:09] <blitzo> pici - what i am doing is running x remotely, not a full desktop, just indidual apps, and it would be nice if i get a menu
[15:09] <hotstew> it says it's already active
[15:09] <hotstew> which makes sense because I'm in gnome
[15:09] <Pici> blitzo: Then run gnome-panel and add that applet.
[15:09] <hotstew> only I got there through xterm
[15:09] <blitzo> pici i try that - thx!
[15:09] <hotstew> and I don't see my normal panels and stuff
[15:10] <blitzo> hotstew what happened that you doing this?
[15:10] <hotstew> the graphical login screen repeated itself after each login
[15:10] <kashif> hello
[15:10] <hotstew> so I got advice to restart gdm but that didn't help
[15:10] <blitzo> hotstew you couldn't login, so how did you get an xterm?
[15:11] <hotstew> so I deinstalled gdm, logged in through xterm, reinstalled gdm and started gnome-session
[15:11] <hotstew> the graphical login works fine now
[15:11] <blitzo> xterm is an x application and your couldn't use x so how did you start an xterm
[15:11] <hotstew> but I still can't get into gnome directly
[15:12] <hotstew> um x always worked
[15:12] <MTecknology> Is it possible to lock down what apps a user can start? Like a whitelist that says they can run bash, cat, less, vim, ssh, etc.
[15:12] <hotstew> I just couldn't get farther than the login screen
[15:12] <randy_> #ubuntu-zh
[15:12] <hotstew> when I filled the graphical login screen out, it brought me back to the login screen
[15:12] <blitzo> hotstew i am NOT an expert but what you MIGHT try is backing up your entire home directory, completely uninstall gnome and reinstall from scratch
[15:12] <laudrup> is this a correct desktop path  $ourFileName = "/home/drup/Deskto/testFile.txt";
[15:12] <hotstew> ok
[15:13] <hotstew> anything's better than reinstalling ubuntu
[15:13] <hotstew> can you please tell me what the main package for gnome is?
[15:13] <blitzo> hotstew, then when it works (if it works) you put your home dir back - and hopefully what's screwed up isn't in a config file there
[15:13] <sudipta> i have currently upgraded my kernel to 2.6.32-24-generic(lucid),but still the initrd.img and vmlinuz are marked as old.How can i upgrade those??
[15:13] <blitzo> hotstew, i would do that from a console
[15:14] <hotstew> yeah, but what is the main gnome package I have to reinstall?
[15:14] <hotstew> is it gnome-session?
[15:14] <blitzo> hotstew, and there is a lot of stuff to remove and put back - i don't know the names of the packages and you won't have synaptic there to tell you - it might be easier to reload ubuntu
[15:14] <h00k> hotstew: maybe you're looking for ubuntu-desktop
[15:14] <hotstew> ok
[15:15] <hotstew> back in a bit
[15:15] <jaes> hi, i'm looking for a repository in "rolling release" for mozilla's software (especially thunderbird)
[15:15] <blitzo> h00k, hotstew that will be a meta package - you could try going into synaptic and marking it for re-install
[15:15] <jaes> does someone has something like this ?
[15:15] <Pici> jaes: The ubuntu mozillateam has a ppa.
[15:16] <blitzo> ah he's gone too bad
[15:17] <jaes> Pici ah thanks, ppa, i forgot the name
[15:17] <Slart> blitzo: sorry.. had to take care of some other stuff.. applets for the gnome panel aren't regular binary programs.. you can't run them from Alt+F2 or a terminal
[15:18] <Slart> laudrup: there are several programs.. "locate" and "which" are two.. they are a little different but both gives you paths to files
[15:22] <Daniel____> can anyone help me with my problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9668826
[15:22] <craigbass1976> Where does wifi radar keeps it's info?  It won't start, and I want to wipe out any caches it might have lurking about
[15:22] <Daniel____> I'm getting these big [  xxx.xxxxxx] ata1.00: status: { DRDY ERR } errors
[15:23] <sudipta> i have currently upgraded my kernel to 2.6.32-24-generic(lucid),but still the initrd.img and vmlinuz are marked as old.How can i upgrade those?? can anyone help me.....please
[15:23] <craigbass1976> Oh, duh.  /etc
[15:24] <Slart> Daniel____: I would start looking for a new hard drive.. I don't think those errors are due to file system errors
[15:25] <Slart> Daniel____: I assume you've tried the regular things.. ie shutting down the system, letting it cool off and such.. running fsck from a live cd, making sure motherboard is ok, power supply and such
[15:25] <Daniel____> Slart: Really?  Its been working fine for several months, and brand new
[15:26] <bareego> most hard drives have a spare section of blocks to replace bad blocks
[15:26] <Daniel____> Slart: I've done the stuff up to fsck from a live CD, it gave a "/bin/sh: fsck: not found" when I used the "Ubuntu Server 10.4 Install CD"
[15:26] <Slart> Daniel____: you could also try a clean install .. see if the errors appear again
[15:27] <bareego> so at first if you have bad blocks you won't even notice
[15:27] <bareego> but when it runs out of spare ones you will
[15:27] <Slart> Daniel____: you could also have a look at the s.m.a.r.t info .. see if it tells you anything
[15:27] <Daniel____> Slart: I don't know how to check the motherboard/power supply
[15:28] <Daniel____> Slart: I'll try the smart thing
[15:28] <Slart> Daniel____: if you run from a live cd there is a neat little utility to see the smart info.. system, administration, disk utility I think
[15:28] <Steve973> blitzo, just a web page/app/whatever that will allow uploads to a specified directory.  I can run it on https.  It will alleviate the need for an scp or ftp client.
[15:28] <ricardoavelar90> please, since 3 days im trying to configure intel mobile 965 on ubuntu 10.04 :S
[15:28] <ricardoavelar90> someone know how to do it please?
[15:28] <Slart> Daniel____: from that utility you can run some extra tests.. those take anywhere from 5 minutes to several hours to run.. but it's a good way to test the drive
[15:29] <Daniel____> Slart: I don't really want to try to do a complete reinstall as the errors could just start up again - I don't know what's caused them
[15:29] <poisonborz> Hola... could someone help me? I've installed ubuntu server with gnome and gdm to log in, but when I run gdmsetup, these errors are displayed.... http://pastebin.com/SGDgqs6k
[15:29] <Daniel____> Slart: where should I get a live CD from? (iso)
[15:29] <Slart> Daniel____: then give the sm.a.r.t utility a try.. hang on.. let me find the url for you
[15:29] <Slart> Daniel____: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
[15:31] <paulw__> Hello. Does anyone know how to use Empathy for IRC? I do not have the option to add an IRC account. Thanks
[15:32] <blitzo> Steve973, there is a way to do that with http put commands and .htaccess to ask for a password but it would not be terribly secure.
[15:33] <blitzo> Steve973, can you be more specific why you don't want to use ssh or ftp?
[15:33] <Guest30667> i hate the nickserver... it keeps dead almost 30% of the time
[15:33] <Guest30667> sigh
[15:34] <ricardoavelar9> please someone with intel mobile 965 chipset?
[15:34] <ricardoavelar9> :(
[15:34] <Guest30667> anyway
[15:34] <JTJ> hi everyone i would just like your opinion windows server vs linux server ?
[15:35] <Guest30667> how can i stop ubuntu to keep stealing my focus?
[15:35] <Guest30667> that's pretty annoying! and highly RISKY!
[15:35] <qjcg> JTJ: troll...
[15:35] <bazhang> !ot | JTJ
[15:35] <ricardoavelar9> JTJ its completely diferent OS
[15:35] <Slart> JTJ: wrong channel.. this is for support only.. try in #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:36] <Guest30667> i was working in one app, then suddenly synaptics thwrow a windos i clic or type in it, say it to do any -just the hell will know what- command...
[15:36] <Slart> Guest30667: stealing focus from what? there are some focus settings in compizconfigsettingsmanager
[15:36] <ricardoavelar9> thats funny xD try to compare windows server with ubuntu server omg :X
[15:36] <Guest30667> compiz... mmm let me try slart :(
[15:37] <Slart> Guest30667: that's the only place I've seen any settings for focus
[15:37] <ricardoavelar9> I want my ubuntu back :'( no one have a intel 965 chipset on a laptop? :(
[15:37] <Guest30667> ammm but... i don't mean optical focus
[15:37] <blitzo> slart, running gnome-panel from remote doesn't work too well :( any other ideas how to creat a menu other than a shell script?
[15:38] <kevinSJ> Does anyone know if it's possible to get a Aliminum apple keyboard to work on Ubuntu?
[15:38] <Slart> blitzo: hmm.. let me look around a bit.. there has to be a way to add a panel applet from a command line
[15:38] <kevinSJ> Because I cant do the "<" ">"-characters and so fourth.
[15:38] <Guest30667> what i mean is, for example, i set some applicatrion to do some work, like downloading or synchronizing via ftp, then i start to do anything else, code, an email or something else... suddenly, my current window got replaced with the other windows just cause that throwed an event, of course i end typing or clicking in the wrong window!!
[15:38] <Slart> Guest30667: neither do I.. there are some settings for focus stealing.. in the general section, I think
[15:38] <Daniel____> Slart: currently "smartctl -l selftest /dev/sda", will update after its completed
[15:38] <hotstew> guys, I found the solution
[15:39] <Wiesshund> Slart if you write the desktop file correctly it will auto add itself
[15:39] <Slart> Daniel____: ah.. that's the one
[15:39] <hotstew>  and my desktop is back to normal with nearly zero configuration
[15:39] <Guest30667> ah, slart, i filtered it and didn't found them... mmm
[15:39] <Bisu[Shield]> was thinking of buying a large 50 inch but then thought why do that why not just get a projector for $300? good idea or bad idea? wondering what the pluses and minuses are.
[15:39] <hotstew> I just had to install gnome-core
[15:39] <Slart> Wiesshund: ah.. talk to blitzo, he/she is the one that's trying to add the applet
[15:39] <paulw__> Hello. Does anyone know how to use Empathy for IRC? I do not have the option to add an IRC account. Thanks
[15:39] <blitzo> hotstew, that solved your prob?
[15:39] <hotstew> yeah
[15:39] <forceflow> or setup a local tracker and connect fake peers ...
[15:40] <Slart> Bisu[Shield]: wrong channel.. try ##hardware perhaps
[15:40] <hotstew> probably it got deinstalled with gdm or something
[15:40] <bazhang> Bisu[Shield], thats offtopic for ubuntu support
[15:40] <hotstew> at least now it works
[15:40] <Bisu[Shield]> no one in hardware
[15:40] <hotstew> and all my old settings are back as well
[15:40] <hotstew> as I did not purge ;)
[15:40] <blitzo> Wiesshund, i'm running x apps remotely - there is no desktop - i would like to have a graphical menu
[15:40] <bazhang> Bisu[Shield], try #ubuntu-offtopic then
[15:40] <hotstew> phew, okay that was enough console for me today
[15:40] <Guest30667> Slart: did you used them? it's not too clear what "focus prevention level" means... high is to avoid or to allow? :(
[15:41] <hotstew> so glad I didn't have to lose my entire system
[15:41] <blitzo> hotstew, do you make backups?
[15:41] <Slart> Guest30667: I think high tries to prevent windows from stealing the focus when they pop up
[15:41] <blitzo> hotstew, i have been learning about these things lately
[15:41] <hotstew> naw, my important stuff is on an external hard drive
[15:41] <Wiesshund> blitzo youve no x session?
[15:41] <nidx> blitzo: remote using ssh ? try -X option..
[15:41] <Ileden> Hi! I have made a full backup of my HD by using dd. Is there a way to mount this backup directly, without restoring? How do I do this when the disk image contains multiple partitions?
[15:42] <hotstew> and now I'm gonna use Ubuntu One to secure my really important stuff
[15:42] <hotstew> like text and photos
[15:42] <poisonborz> Hola... could someone help me? I've installed ubuntu server with gnome and gdm to log in, but when I run gdmsetup, I get these errors... http://pastebin.com/SGDgqs6k
[15:42] <blitzo> Wiesshund, nidx i am running x apps remotely via ssh - works like a charm - but it would be nice to have a graphical menu
[15:42] <olejo> Hi everyone.
[15:42] <hotstew> *wipessweatoffhishead*
[15:43] <Ileden> The thing is, I didn't dd /dev/hda1 but /dev/hda that contains the partition table that defines /dev/hda1 and /dev/hda5...
[15:43] <Guest30667> thanks slart
[15:43] <olejo> Any tips for UK Hardware suppliers for a new build?
[15:43] <qjcg> [no matches in 103 files]
[15:43] <Slart> Guest30667: you're welcome
[15:43] <nidx> blitzo: try connect using -X. e.g, ssh -X marioozawa.pervert.net
[15:43] <Guest30667> i was reading... and that's interesting... while some people really want for the focus to be stealed some other didn't!
[15:43] <Pici> olejo: Try ##hardware or maybe ##ubuntu-uk
[15:43] <Wiesshund> blitzo connect with -X option, er nm nidx said it lol
[15:43] <nidx> blitzo: if those server allowing X forwarding, then you can use X environment..
[15:44] <blitzo> nidx that part works just fine.  now i would like to have a graphical menu rather than have to type commands at the shell prompt - which we can do, and i could write a menu in bach script but... a graphical menu would be nice
[15:44] <thune3> poisonborz: i'm not expert (never run gdmsetup before), but all those messages are listed as WARINING: or DEBUG:, nothing is listed as an error.
[15:44] <Guest30667> i'm on the "please don't steal my focus, believe me, i was working on thjat window, please show respect" while others are in the "hey raise that window now! i want to see it"
[15:44] <Wiesshund> blitzo Oh i got ya
[15:44] <blitzo> Wiesshund, please read what i already wrote
[15:44] <Wiesshund> blitzo you want a local menu to launch the remotes
[15:44] <olejo> :) Pici
[15:44] <Guest30667> hehe, i'm starting to understand why things like the ipad are not multitask :P
[15:44] <blitzo> Wiesshund, i tried running gnome panel and adding a main menu to it but the panel misbehaves
[15:45] <Pici> Guest30667: Do you have an Ubuntu support question? If not, random chatter is in #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:45] <gnusiva> in ubuntu terminal other languages were rendered as broken... Especially tamil
[15:45] <Guest30667> Pici... were you reading my question? and were you seeing that i got some support?
[15:45] <blitzo> Wiesshund, this is an acient laptop with no harddisk - i run it off a livecd and sshe to a server
[15:46] <gnusiva> how to fix the rendering in ubuntu terminal for other languages
[15:46] <Pici> Guest30667: I was reffering to the other random things you were saying after your question was answered.

[15:47] <Merlina> Guys, I'm trying to install my USB DVB-T Tuner in Ubuntu. I was following this tutorial and I have to edit the makefile.
[15:47] <Merlina> #### CONFIGURE THE FOLLOWING LINES
[15:47] <Merlina> #the precompiled kernel headers
[15:47] <Merlina> KDIR = /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.30-1-686
[15:47] <Merlina> #the unpacked kernel source

[15:47] <Merlina> KSRC = /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.30
[15:47] <Guest30667> blitzo: what is your issue?
[15:47] <Wiesshund> blitzo eh unconfuse me a sec then, do you want a local menu, or are you wanting a menu to exist in your ssh session?

[15:48] <paulw__> Hello. Does anyone know how to use Empathy for IRC? I do not have the option to add an IRC account. Thanks
[15:48] <Merlina> !pastebin http://pastebin.com/hST80YXG
[15:48] <kevinSJ> Does anyone know if it's possible to get a Aliminum apple keyboard to work on Ubuntu?
[15:48] <kevinSJ> Because I cant do the "<" ">"-characters and so fourth.
[15:48] <Merlina> can someone please have a look at my pastebin?
[15:48] <Merlina> http://pastebin.com/hST80YXG
[15:48] <bareego> paulw__, I don't , mind just install it to find out
[15:49] <nidx> blitzo: i think, when you use the -X option on ssh, you already get all the GUI, am I wrong ? i should sit and watch as others help you. maybe i can learn a bit or two :)
[15:49] <paulw__> bareego, i have it installed, there is no option for IRC accounts
[15:49] <bareego> I'll go have a look
[15:49] <Misterio> paulw__: Just add a new account, select IRC and continue steps
[15:49] <blitzo> nidx what you get is a shell prompt.  then you run an x app on the remote computer and the output appears on your local
[15:49] <paulw__> no selection for irc
[15:50] <Wiesshund> blitzo hmm, i know how to add things to your gnome menu, globaly. but you are sayiung when you ssh -x you dont get an actual desktop ?
[15:50] <bareego> yup, looks like it has no IRC
[15:51] <blitzo> Wiesshund, when you use the -X option to ssh it sets up for tunneling x, however what you get on the other end is a command line.  when you type the name of an x app to the command line, that app runs, and ssh forwards its video output across the link to your local machine
[15:51] <Ileden> Hi! I have made a full backup of my HD by using dd. The HD had multiple partitions - is there a way to mount this backup directly, without restoring? If I had copied e.g. /dev/hda1 I could just mount that file directly, but since I've copied the entire disk, /dev/hda, is it possible to somehow read partition table from there, and mount the partition I want?
[15:51] <nidx> paulw__: use pidgin.. pidgin rox !
[15:52] <Boromir> Merlina: If I'm not mistaken, it seem like the guide is for 64 bir version, but you're installing on a 32 bit version. I'm a Ubuntu newbie myself, tough, so not sure
[15:52] <Boromir> *bit
[15:52] <Wiesshund> blitzo startx
[15:52] <blitzo> Wiesshund, you do not get a desktop doing it this way
[15:52] <blitzo> Wiesshund, tried that
[15:53] <Wiesshund> blitzo it does not run or? (sorry i got in convo a bit late)
[15:53] <blitzo> Wiesshund, complains about not being able to authorize the user - i don't understand x security so that's a lost cause
[15:53] <paulw__> does pidgin work with the menu bar settings and notifications?
[15:54] <blitzo> Wiesshund, i haven't been able to figure out how to do a startx from remote
[15:54] <bareego> don't you just have to export the session ?
[15:54] <blitzo> Wiesshund, and i don't need to any, there are only a few apps i need.  i'm just gonna write a sh script and be done with it.  :)
[15:55] <Wiesshund> blitzo stupid question but you said you can start the gnome task bar?
[15:55] <blitzo> every time i get on here to ask a question i end up spending an hour answering them :)
[15:55] <blitzo> Wiesshund, yes i can start it but it misbehaves
[15:55] <nidx> paulw__: i dont think so.. sory..
[15:56] <blitzo> paulw__, emparthy does everything pidgin does and then some - but i think pidgin is easier to use
[15:56] <nidx> blitzo: i cant imagine task bar on shell session..
[15:57] <urlwallace> I love you wubi!
[15:57] <BeastWars> hello
[15:57] <BeastWars> i'm encountering problems installing TurkBuntu64 on my Dell Optiplex server
[15:57] <paulw__> empathy should work for irc but there is something that i need to do to get irc working. I know if I add pidgin then empathy allows me to add IRC
[15:58] <blitzo> nidx Wiesshund  this is how you do it http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Displaying_Ubuntu_Linux_Applications_Remotely_%28X11_Forwarding%29
[15:58] <bazhang> BeastWars, turkbuntu?
[15:58] <BeastWars> yes
[15:58] <BeastWars> is there a separate channel for that?
[15:58] <blitzo> paulw__, try xchat?
[15:58] <Wiesshund> blitzo yea im just wondering why you cant startX, thats what mine does.
[15:58] <bazhang> BeastWars, dl'd from where?
[15:59] <Wiesshund> blitzo looking at the security setup
[15:59] <rbedi99> hi, i'm using  ubuntu 10.04 on an hp mini 110, and the wifi doesnt work -- it's a known issue, however. to fix it, i need to install certain broadcom drivers (bcmwl-kernel-source), which wants me to put in my ubuntu cd in "drive /cdrom/". problem is that i installed from usb, and dont have a cd drive. ideas?
[15:59] <blitzo> Wiesshund, really?  maybe the user needs to be in a group or something
[15:59] <BeastWars> BeastWars: the TurkBuntu project repository
[15:59] <BeastWars> i only download distros from the official source
[15:59] <paulw__> i have xchat now..but i would like something that ties to the menu bar and all that ubuntu goodness
[16:00] <BeastWars> i don't think my ISO is the issue
[16:00] <BeastWars> er
[16:00] <BeastWars> bazhang: ^
[16:00] <blitzo> rbedi99, you can get install them with synaptic i think
[16:00] <rbedi99> blitzo: it still prompts for the CD
[16:00] <BeastWars> i'm thinking maybe the 32bit build might work?
[16:01] <Boromir> rbedi99: Strange.. I belive I did that 2 weeks ago myself
[16:01] <blitzo> rbedi99, then you will have to find out how to enable the appropriate repository and here i'm getting in over my head
[16:01] <Reshekel> i tooted
[16:01] <rbedi99> Boromir: did you get prompted for any CD?
[16:01] <Boromir> no
[16:01] <rbedi99> Boromir: huh... Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop?
[16:01] <BeastWars> yes hello
[16:01] <BeastWars> TurkBuntu64 help neede
[16:01] <BeastWars> d
[16:01] <blitzo> rbedi99, it should not be asking for a cd, it wouldn't be on the cd
[16:01] <Boromir> Only reason it wasn't preinstalled, is because it's a propriatry driver
[16:01] <Boromir> yeah
[16:01] <Boromir> lemme check version
[16:02] <rbedi99> blitzo: Boromir i think its one of its dependencies that wants a cd, not it itself
[16:02] <sam898889> * Does anyone know the name of the official Ubuntu font (IE the one used in the Ubuntu Logo???) Thanks!
[16:02] <blitzo> rbedi99, lemme see what google turns up - hang on
[16:02] <Pici> sam898889: Its not yet released to the public.
[16:03] <Wiesshund> blitzo when your remoting is it as your admin user?
[16:03] <BeastWars> bazhang: it got it from http://www.igottheknot.com
[16:03] <kitche> BeastWars turkbuntu is not a ubuntu distro might have to ask them for support unless you mean ubuntu-tr?
[16:03] <sam898889> pici  are they planning on releasing it? do u know?  0.0
[16:03] <blitzo> Wiesshund, no
[16:03] <hotstew> did someone talk to me? oO
[16:03] <JodaZ> how do i disable any font anti aliasing, sub pixel rendering and anything like that ?
[16:03] <rbedi99> sam898889: try synaptic ttf-ubuntu-title
[16:03] <Wiesshund> blitzo just for a test, can you remote in as a user with admin privs and try to run a desktop?
[16:04] <nidx> hotstew: whats ur issue ?
[16:04] <thune3> Ileden: i've never done it, losetup and kpartx are the tools (apparently). http://brainextender.blogspot.com/2009/03/ubuntu-mount-partition-of-raw-harddrive.html
[16:04] <bazhang> BeastWars, thats not a valid link; there is not  a turkbuntu
[16:04] <blitzo> rbedi99, what do you think of this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1390979 - yes it involves compiling but does it apply to your situation?
[16:05] <blitzo> Wiesshund, i try that
[16:05] <sam898889> rbedi99,   thnks!
[16:05] <BeastWars> bazhang: http://igottheknot.com works here?
[16:05] <hotstew> nidx: I just wondered if someone talked to me because there was this sign
[16:05] <bazhang> BeastWars, stop pasting that here
[16:05] <Boromir> rbedi99: It only says Broadcom STA Wireless Driver. Not sure how to get more detailed driver version
[16:05] <hotstew> but it seems xchat does that with any new message
[16:05] <hotstew> otherwise no thx :)
[16:06] <BeastWars> bazhang: why?
[16:06] <rbedi99> blitzo: hmm i could try that.. i think my hp mini uses the b43 driver.
[16:06] <nidx> hotstew: oic.. :P
[16:06] <rbedi99> Boromir: okay.. did you have to install any dependencies first?
[16:06] <Boromir> No, it pretty much just worked on the fly once I figured out what I needed to install
[16:06] <BeastWars> bazhang:
[16:06] <BeastWars> 16:06 -!- bazhang is away: I'm busy
[16:06] <BeastWars> 16:06 -!- [pratchett.freenode.net] bazhang You must log in with services to message this user

[16:07] <Boromir> Here it is: Installed version: <IP_ADDRESS>+bdcom-0ubuntu3
[16:08] <rbedi99> blitzo: i also tried using hardware drivers, and it says "system error: failed to lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock
[16:08] <rbedi99> Boromir: where'd u install from?
[16:08] <Boromir> synaptics package manager
[16:08] <nidx> rbedi99: close the synaptic first ?
[16:08] <rbedi99> Boromir: yeah thats the version im using\
[16:08] <rbedi99> nidx: i did
[16:08] <Boromir> :-/
[16:08] <Boromir> strange
[16:08] <blitzo> rbedi99, that means a package manager is running
[16:09] <rbedi99> blitzo: but it isn't :)
[16:09] <blitzo> rbedi99, hang on
[16:09] <rbedi99> blitzo: ohhh apt-get was still working, does that count?
[16:09] <Wiesshund> guthi i'll be forst to ask the stupid question, but you didnt allow ubuntu to reformat and erase windows right?
[16:09] <blitzo> Wiesshund, something started but it wasn't sending output down the ssh tunnel, dunno where it went
[16:09] <blitzo> rbedi99, apt-get is a package manager
[16:09] <nidx> rbedi99: yes it is, i think :P
[16:09] <rbedi99> blitzo: haha okay, my bad :P
[16:10] <Boromir> The package is called bcmwl-kernel-source, and there's also a package called bcmwl-modaliases installed
[16:10] <blitzo> rbedi99, in previous versions there was no lock and they would barf all over everything :(
[16:10] <markie-> Can anybody help me remove compiz completely from terminal, i forgot what the package names were?
[16:10] <Boromir> under Synaptics package manager, that is
[16:11] <csgeek> does ubuntu have the option for scripted setup.. something like RH's kick start?
[16:11] <blitzo> markie-, go into synaptic and remove it that way - do a quick serach on compiz and it will list all pkgs names containing that string, then mark for "complete removal"
[16:11] <rbedi99> blitzo: okay its trying to install now. hanging at the end, but perhaps its just slow
[16:11] <guthi> Wiesshund, no, i can mount the windows drive and i see the files and can access it. so the partition is still there (i understand the need to ask that question, so no probs ;) )
[16:11] <BluesKaj> markie , look in the package manager for the them, and use it to "completely remove" the packages
[16:11] <rbedi99> guthi: run "update-grub" from terminal?
[16:12] <Pici> csgeek: There are a number of methods that Ubuntu can be installed, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for details.
[16:12] <markie-> blitzo: Yea i would of done that, but the thing is i have no access to it, only the terminal i have access to, no X
[16:12] <Wiesshund> guthi if you run "sudo update-grub" in the terminal, see if it suddenly finds windows
[16:12] <guthi> rbedi99, did that, several times, os-prober doesnt detect the os (win xp) installed
[16:12] <blitzo> markie-, what is your situation?
[16:12] <guthi> Wiesshund, , did that, several times, os-prober doesnt detect the os (win xp) installed
[16:12] <DoraBot> Hello DoraBot! Welcome to #ubuntu.
[16:12] <DoraBot> Hello moayad__! Welcome to #ubuntu.
[16:13] <csgeek> thanks Pici
[16:13] <Wiesshund> guthi ok, where is xp installed?
[16:13] <Sp3rm4> Quien habla español aca?
[16:13] <Pici> !es | Sp3rm4
[16:13] <markie-> blitzo: after installing the drivers for compiz, it just boots me into terminal on start up. It works sometimes, but most times it doesn't
[16:13] <guthi> Wiesshund, do u want to see the boot info results?
[16:14] <Wiesshund> guthi sure you can /msg them to me so not to spam the channel
[16:14] <BluesKaj> markie-, btw , why are you remving compiz , do you think it's responsible for no X ? because your video driver may be responsible
[16:14] <UberN00b> hello world 8)
[16:15] <cablop> i need the kade core base or whatever it is called to be able to sun some kde apps, i don't want to install kubuntu-desktop, cause i don't need things like koffice and related, just the basics, what can i do?
[16:15] <markie-> BluesKaj: Yea i figured if removed compiz it might work, also i have burn effect using fusion plugins, and forgot the shortcut to turn it off, so i can't click anything, because fire shows up
[16:15] <rdw200169> markie-: yeah, compiz won't trash your X, if i'm not mistaken, if compiz fails, it just falls back to the gnome defaults
[16:16] <mgj> How do i get a list of all harddrives and their partitions on a system? Mounted and not-mounted ones
[16:16] <blitzo> guthi, you need to manually edit /boot/grup/grub.cfg and add an entry for the windows partition - i do not know the params
[16:16] <xavi_> fdisk -l
[16:16] <BluesKaj> rdw200169, exactly ...I think it's a graphics card problem
[16:17] <rdw200169> markie-: if you can, is it possible to run "gtk-window-decorator --replace" from within an X session?
[16:17] <blitzo> mgj - gparted will give you that list, or fisk if you're handy with a command line
[16:17] <domjohnson> Hello
[16:17] <mgj> cheers
[16:17] <BluesKaj> rdw200169,` he has no X available
[16:17] <domjohnson> Can anyone tell me the best compression type (I.e .zip, .bz2 etc) to use for getting the smallest file?
[16:17] <blitzo> mgj that's fdisk
[16:17] <guthi> Wiesshund, http://www.textdump.com/v/?k=NzI1OQ==
[16:18] <blitzo> domjohnson, it depends on the content - try the file with all of them and compare file sizes
[16:18] <abhijit> hello all!
[16:18] <rdw200169> BluesKaj: markie- so wait, let me get this straight, even gdm (the graphical login) won't work?  if gdm works, X is working.  thus, in order to bypass compiz, you just run a different gdm session
[16:18] <guthi> blitzo, yup, tried doing that but it just says "no such partition" when i try to boot from it or just puts a blinkor in the top left corner and just sits there
[16:18] <blitzo> folks i'm out of here, hope i helped anyone towayd

[16:20] <domjohnson> blitzo - mainly video. I don't want to spend loads of time and space finding out...My Ubuntu partition is running out of space, and can't resize my Windows one because GParted only lets you resize it with about 3 gigs left on the one you're making smaller...
[16:20] <markie-> maybe if somebody can give me the name of the compiz fusion package, so i can remove burn effect? perhaps
[16:20] <domjohnson> (If that made sense)
[16:20] <blitzo> guthi, final thought - the boot block for windows might be hosed
[16:20] <blitzo> domjohnson, i have to go now, perhaps someone else can help
[16:20] <bareego> reboot and repair from a winders CD might fix that
[16:20] <domjohnson> ok
[16:21] <domjohnson> thanks anyway :)
[16:21] <guthi> blitzo, what do i do about that? thats what i have been fearing
[16:21] <bareego> if it does go back and reinstall grub

[16:21] <ibrahim> ubuntu loves me
[16:21] <rdw200169> markie-: if you don't even get a graphical login, your problems are *not* with compiz.  compiz is only a window decorator for gnome.  it has nothing to do with X.org; it is also not a 'driver' in a hardware sense.  instead of considering your problem to be with compiz, it would save you time to jump straight into suspecting your video drivers/X.org configuration

[16:27] <abhijit> !wifi | bjhaid
[16:28] <Wiesshund> pyghassen that will probbly bust 9.10
[16:28] <pyghassen> I didn't like the 10.04 it's unstable
[16:28] <pyghassen> i just wanna upgrade some softwares
[16:28] <piksi> would anyone know how to get gnome to automagically enable usb microphones as inputs when they are plugged in? the microphones appear in the input list in sound settings but are not enabled by default (i need to click the list item to enable them). also gnome forgets their amplification settings every time. is this the default behaviour and can i override it easily?
[16:28] <guthi> Wiesshund, yes, i saw the example, but can u tell me which values can be got from where?
[16:28] <abhijit> abhijeet, ping
[16:28] <bjhaid> ibrahim: there are wireless networks available but i cannot see anyone coming up
[16:28] <Wiesshund> pyghassen it doesnt quite work that way
[16:29] <Wiesshund> pyghassen you can try it at your own rick by adding the repositories
[16:29] <ibrahim> bjhaid: click on the networking icon near the clock dude
[16:29] <blitzo> guthi, one last thing i can think of - you are specifying the wrong partition
[16:29] <pyghassen> so I can't upgrade ubuntu one for example, I don't wanna the 10.04 it crappy
[16:29] <Wiesshund> gunthi i answered you in the msg window
[16:29] <bjhaid> ibrahim thanks
[16:30] <ibrahim> bjhaid: anytime ;)
[16:30] <blitzo> guthi, grub starts counting from 0, fdisk starts at 1.  read that link i gave you.  and now i do have to go good luck
[16:30] <Wiesshund> pyghassen 10.04 is stable and runs well. it just may not be suitable if youve got older hardware
[16:31] <ibrahim> bjhaid: are we okay now dude ?
[16:31] <pyghassen> no my laptop is new actually, 2009
[16:31] <pyghassen> but i always got a problem with the intel hardware like vedio card
[16:33] <pyghassen> Wiesshund so no chance to do stuff my way?
[16:33] <Wiesshund> guthi you every going to answer your message window
[16:33] <bazhang> pyghassen, no
[16:33] <Wiesshund> pyghassen yes but its liable to bust your 9.10 installation, so isnt supported in #ubuntu
[16:34] <pyghassen> Wiesshund why just let people do what they suit them, this is not an open source culture
[16:34] <Pici> pyghassen: Then do it, but don't ask for support for it here.
[16:34] <guthi> Wiesshund, hi, i dont see anything in my message window, did u send the message to me?

[16:36] <EvilPhoenix> amidelalune:  why do you need that?
[16:36] <guthi> in the message window i see a sample piece of code u sent for putting in the 40_custom folder

[16:36] <DummyMode> while trying to start mysql I've get  use the service(8), I'm using ubuntu 10.4 server, but service mysql start says it's not a valid service
[16:36] <DummyMode> any idea?

[16:37] <Error404NotFound> I keep getting windows viruses due to using wine. Problem is ClamAV only reports the infected files, it doesn't fix them, deletion isn't really something i want in most cases. Any solution?
[16:37] <guthi> Wiesshund, is there anything else u sent to me, i just messaged u
[16:37] <Wiesshund> guthi says its says your ignoring me
[16:37] <bareego> install a windows virus scanner in wine ?
[16:38] <ibrahim> Error404NotFound: I hate wine don't use it dude
[16:38] <EvilPhoenix> amidelalune:  if the government were spying on you, you wouldnt figure that out with the fingerprint on the security certificate for mail.google.com
[16:38] <Error404NotFound> ibrahim, i need it, for some CAD applications...
[16:38] <Error404NotFound> bareego, that could be a solution yes...
[16:38] <abhijit> now this is 3rd day. nuuuuuu onnnnnnnnn hels meeeeeeeee!!!!    :'(
[16:38] <abhijit> helps*
[16:38] <guthi> Wiesshund, i dont see u on my ignore list, i will try to relog in into irc, hold on
[16:39] <Pici> !here | abhijit
[16:39] <Error404NotFound> bareego, but files are infected even outside the WINEENV e.g. ~/.wine directory.
[16:39] <Cyber_Akuma> What would be the best way to chainload Ubuntu after installing it?
[16:39] <Wiesshund> guthi i cant msg anything to you, your client says its ignoring me for flooding
[16:39] <ibrahim> Error404NotFound: change the program source them use another setup file and make sure it's a virus free , or you can use virtual box to install a virtual os
[16:39] <abhijit> Pici,
[16:39] <Dmitrys> What is the best and powerfull laptop for Ubuntu?
[16:39] <Pici> !ot | Dmitrys
[16:39] <amidelalune> EvilPhoenix, why? if i ask someone outside this network for the fingerprint, I  will be sure it is not fake
[16:39] <Dmitrys> thanks
[16:40] <Error404NotFound> ibrahim, a fully loaded windows vm takes hell lot of more resources than wine.
[16:40] <guthi> Wiesshund, i m back and i sent you a message, did u get it?
[16:40] <Wiesshund> guthi but anyways grub hd0,0 = sda1, hd3,5 = sdd6 etc
[16:40] <Pici> amidelalune: This really isn't Ubuntu related, #ubuntu-offtopic would be better place to ask.
[16:40] <EvilPhoenix> what Pici said
[16:40] <ibrahim> Error404NotFound: the only solution is that you make sure that the setup file is virus free.
[16:40] <abhijit> after removing kde i followed istruction here: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome then i started to get pgadmin3 and coldeltie relocation error. all details here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1542391

[16:41] <abhijit> ibrahim, yes you are right. i ddnt ask my question. sorry. :|
[16:42] <Cyber_Akuma> I want to triple boot a system, problem is one of the linux distros I want to use still uses legacy grub, so I figured the best way to get past this would be to just giveo each distro it's own bootloader and chainload them
[16:42] <ibrahim> abhijit: actually you did :$ sorry.
[16:42] <abhijit> ibrahim, :D
[16:42] <guthi> Wiesshund, i m really sorry, i didnt do that!! my windows is in sda5 so what would be the (hdX, Y) for that?
[16:42] <DummyMode> can someone point me to a url which explains what changed in ubuntu 10.4 related to init.d scripts? cannot start lots or services and telling me to use service utility
[16:42] <ibrahim> abhijit: you are kind of a programmer right ?
[16:42] <guthi> Wiesshund, i got your message saying hmm ;)
[16:42] <abhijit> ibrahim, how you know? have we talked before?

[16:44] <randyrkelly> i did no one there

[16:45] <lynne> I have a question about video memory  ! any one
[16:45] <randyrkelly> yeah ok thanks
[16:45] <duiu> Anyone know of why CUPS printers will randomly stop getting exported to Samba every few-ish power ons and then I have to delete the printer and re add (load printers = yes is enabled in smb.conf)
[16:46] <bareego> !ask | lynne
[16:47] <lynne> I bought a Video Card with Large amount of memory for video inside of Windows inside of Virtual Box
[16:47] <w2_> ;;
[16:47] <w2_> ;;
[16:47] <craigbass1976> I've got a new linksys wireless card in my desktop; doesn't show up in the network connections, but I can see my wireless network in wifi-radar
[16:47] <lynne> and it ( Virtual Box ) does not see it
[16:47] <bareego> lynne, once you go into a virtual box the memory in your video card won't make a difference
[16:48] <bareego> only it's speed, to a degree
[16:48] <Ramone> hey all.. can anyone verify that a shell script in /etc/cron.daily will run every day?  am I doing that right?  it runs fine when I run it manually from that dir...
[16:48] <bareego> why do you need to watch a video in a virtual machine ?
[16:48] <lynne> Oh so its kinda stuck at 128 megs ?
[16:48] <craigbass1976> Ramone, have you set it to run every day and it won't?
[16:48] <lynne> No I use Pinnacle studio 14 and it uses a lot of memory
[16:48] <camdent> I need help accessing my linksys router from Ubuntu so I can secure my wireless network.
[16:49] <bareego> but why do you run it in a virtual machine, why not native
[16:49] <Ramone> craigbass1976: I can't verify without waiting a day :)  I'm just wondering if I did it right before then
[16:49] <lynne> I make the videos inside of Pinnacle Studio
[16:49] <craigbass1976> camdent, what's the ip of the router?  should be <IP_ADDRESS> or 0.1, or sometimes 2.1
[16:49] <craigbass1976> Ramone, have it run in five minutes.
[16:49] <lynne> Windblows likes to crash a lot and I am tired of re loading it eveery 3 or 4 months
[16:50] <camdent> Craigbass, how do I figure that out?  Sorry...just started using Ubuntu a few days ago.  Haven't had time to learn much yet.
[16:50] <maxh> I seem to have gotten access to the Ubuntu font beta, which is apparently only for Members.
[16:50] <craigbass1976> lynne, I feel for you.  It was during windows 98 that I finally quit
[16:50] <maxh> How do I claim the other benefits?
[16:50] <craigbass1976> camdent, type ifconfig in a terminal
[16:50] <lynne> thanks craigbass
[16:50] <Ramone> craigbass1976: running it manually works... I've got it in /etc/cron.daily too... is that it for daily?
[16:50] <erUSUL> maxh: the cloak you can ask in #ubuntu-irc the rest i dunno
[16:50] <abhijit> after removing kde i followed istruction here: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome then i started to get pgadmin3 and coldeltie relocation error. all details here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1542391
[16:50] <bareego> that's video editing stuff right ?
[16:50] <Pici> maxh: 'other benefits'?
[16:51] <daedaluz> is there something like aerosnap for GNOME? also, what about Oxygen theme (from KDE) lookalikes?
[16:51] <bareego> do yourself a favour and do it natively
[16:51] <IdleOne> maxh: join #ubuntu-irc please
[16:51] <lynne> maybe I should see the people at Virtual Box and ask them questions
[16:51] <bareego> you want all the memory and cpu speed you can get
[16:51] <craigbass1976> Ramone, I haven't set up cron jobs in a dog's age.  You could run an at job; if that works, cron should be fine.  Did you google around for proper line format in cron?
[16:51] <camdent> A HA!!! like command prompt! Can i just throw that ip into firefox and go from there?
[16:52] <Ramone> craigbass1976: cron.daily is what google told me to use... no syntax necessary
[16:52] <craigbass1976> camdent, yes, but thew router's last number is probably 1
[16:52] <lynne> sure do when running heavy Graphics in movies
[16:52] <Ramone> anyone else used /etc/cron.daily ?
[16:53] <camdent> craigbass.  So it should be <IP_ADDRESS>?
[16:53] <piyushmishra> hi anyone has used the usb mopdem for BSNL india on ubuntu?
[16:53] <lynne> Well I guess I will go see the people at Virtual Box
[16:53] <lynne> bye people
[16:54] <sipior> Ramone: sure.
[16:54] <thune3> duiu: aparrantly this is a problem with cups/samba startup ordering. There are a couple workarounds buried in the discussion: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/upstart/+bug/494141
[16:54] <JJJJ> hi there does any one have teamviwer and know how to do ndis wrapper as the gui  version of wireless is not working properly keep disconnecting me i wondered if somone would mind setting it up for me
[16:54] <craigbass1976> camdent, no, the router should be <IP_ADDRESS>  And you might not be able to access it wirelessly
[16:54] <craigbass1976> camdent, some routers allow you to shut off wireless access to the admin
[16:54] <craigbass1976> I've got a new linksys wireless card in my desktop; doesn't show up in the network connections, but I can see my wireless network in wifi-radar
[16:54] <Ramone> sipior: just drop the script in, and I''m good?
[16:55] <camdent> the connection between my desktop (ubuntu) and the router is ethernet, so that's no problem.  It worked, but now it wants a password, but I've never set one up, so I have no idea what it is.
[16:56] <bareego> camdent, it might have reset to defaults
[16:56] <JJJJ> camdent, it will be wriiten ont he label of your router
[16:56] <sipior> Ramone: if you want to test it, just run "/bin/run-parts" on the directory manually. (have a look at the man page as well)
[16:56] <bareego> admin/admin or summink
[16:56] <bareego> should be written on the router or in the instructions that came with it
[16:56] <piyushmishra> its <IP_ADDRESS> on any browser and user pass is admin/admin
[16:57] <stanley_robertso> hi abhijeet
[16:57] <craigbass1976> camdent, if you've never set it, there might not be one.  try admin as user and admin as pass
[16:57] <Ramone> sipior: ha thanks... so it's not in the list of stuff that would run... am I missing something?
[16:57] <JJJJ> or <IP_ADDRESS>
[16:57] <Pici> !ot
[16:57] <craigbass1976> camdent, what's the model number of the router?
[16:58] <camdent> YIpee!  Perfect! Exactly what I needed.  Now, to find an ubuntu manual so I can figure this stuff out on my own next time... :)
[16:58] <IdleOne> !manual
[16:58] <sipior> Ramone: if you look at /etc/crontab, you'll see what's really going on (i.e., cron.daily is just an argument to run-parts, which is invoked once a day, in this case)
[16:58] <piyushmishra> can anyone help me configure the usb router config? for DSL ?
[16:58] <camdent> Thanks everyone.
[16:59] <piyushmishra> I think I have the RPM and source of the driver I need
[16:59] <Ramone> sipior: /etc/crontab just mentions /etc/cron.daily ... it doesn't have anything that explicitly states what in it should run
[17:00] <sipior> Ramone: that's what run-parts is for. look at the man page.
[17:00] <Ramone> and yet /bin/run-parts --test /etc/cron.daily  shows everything except my script
[17:00] <chat64708> hi girls
[17:00] <sipior> Ramone: is it executable?
[17:00] <Ramone> yeah
[17:00] <Ramone> already ran it locally
[17:00] <cannonball> I got a odd problem
[17:01] <llutz> Ramone: whats the filename of your script, it shouldn't have an extension iirrc
[17:01] <sipior> Ramone: what does --list show?
[17:01] <Doonz> hey guys im using sshfs to mount a remote directory on my local server. Is there a way to make this mount a constant connection because sometimes it disconnnects and then i have to manually remout it
[17:01] <Trashi> hi guys. i hope there are some people who can help with my little pureftpd problem. im using pure-ftpd with mysql support, so all users come from a mysql database (virtualusers) ... in pureftpd.conf i set a MYSQLDefaultUID/GID (pure,ftp) for all virtual users... root is _not_ able to login ... if i connect to ftp with a virtualuser there a three processes ... first process: pure-ftpd (SERVER) user root (my standalone pure ftpd server) ... second
[17:01] <Ramone> yeah blah.sh ... lemme rename and retry...1 secx
[17:01] <Ramone> errrrrrr sec
[17:01] <cannonball> cant get my internet working.. I'm using a wireless, and it connect just fine, but firefox, update, ect.. doesnt work
[17:02] <sipior> Ramone: look at the second paragraph of the man page, beginning with "If neither the..."
[17:02] <Ramone> sipior: that's got it!  thanks man
[17:02] <duiu> thune3: thanks, but could you clarify if I'm editing /etc/init/smbd.conf should this line have parentheses or not? Line is as follows: start on (local-filesystems and stopped rc)
[17:02] <cannonball> anyone else have problem using wireless
[17:02] <llutz> Ramone: the "." dot was the problem :)
[17:02] <bareego> cannonball, can you ping things on the net ?
[17:02] <bareego> cannonball, like ping www.yahoo.com or such
[17:03] <cannonball> no
[17:03] <Ramone> yep :\
[17:03] <sipior> llutz: it was indeed. well-spotted :-)
[17:03] <Ramone> thanks
[17:03] <boscop> how can I pipe some output into the clipboard?
[17:03] <bareego> cannonball, can you ping inet IPs ?
[17:03] <Ramone> ls
[17:03] <bareego> cannonball, like <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:03] <cannonball> didnt try that.. give me a few things to try and I'll go do that
[17:03] <duiu> boscop: add >> somefile.txt at the end of the command, it'll send the output into a text file
[17:03] <bareego> kk
[17:04] <bareego> just to see if your DNS setting works
[17:04] <boscop> duiu, I know -.-
[17:04] <boscop> duiu, but I want it to pipe into the clipboard
[17:04] <boscop> is that possible?
[17:04] <duiu> boscop: no idea
[17:04] <cannonball> ok lets say my dns isnt working
[17:05] <bareego> you need to put a nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf
[17:05] <IdleOne> boscop: why do you want the output to go to the clipboard?
[17:05] <boscop> just wanted to know whether it's possible at all. I don't need it to survive
[17:05] <abhijit> after removing kde i followed istruction here: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome then i started to get pgadmin3 and coldeltie relocation error. all details here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1542391
[17:05] <bareego> did the IP ping work ?
[17:06] <IdleOne> boscop: ah well there is the package pastebinit that will send the output to pastebin
[17:06] <cannonball> i'll have to switch over to ubuntu..
[17:06] <duiu> boscop: you have to use something called xclip, and it seems kind of rough
[17:06] <bareego> kk
[17:06] <cannonball> what is a nameserver
[17:06] <bareego> if IP ping works your need to put nameserver entry in /etc/resolv.conf
[17:06] <craigbass1976> I've got a new linksys wireless card in my desktop; doesn't show up in the network connections, but I can see my wireless network in wifi-radar.  If I didn't see my network in wifi-radar, I think I should go the ndiswrapper route, but that seems unnecessary.  Anyone?
[17:07] <duiu> cannonball: it is a server that determines what ip address goes to what website
[17:07] <bareego> it's a computer at your ISP that translates URLs into IPs
[17:07] <bareego> like www.yahoo.com into numbers
[17:07] <duiu> cannonball: say for example you type in google.com., it figures out the IP
[17:07] <cannonball> ahhh..
[17:07] <cannonball> ok brb
[17:08] <bareego> so if you can ping IPs but not URLs your nameserver setting is not working
[17:08] <cannonball> gotcha
[17:08] <cannonball> lemme check
[17:09] <MaT-dg> Does anyone have the .so file for 64bit flash? forgot to backup...
[17:10] <hotstew> I heard that Chrome send back data for advertisement to Google, is it the same with Chromium?
[17:10] <thune3> duiu: looks like it should have parens: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/50822127/smb.conf.diff
[17:10] <th0r> MaT-dg: reinstall flash
[17:10] <bareego> yes, chrome is the same as chrome
[17:11] <MaT-dg> th0r: no, I need the 64 bit version but adobe has pulled it from their site. Installing flash via apt-get installs 32bits
[17:11] <duiu> thune3: thanks
[17:12] <KrisDouglas> why doesn't ubuntu have a 64bit repo? or does it :s
[17:12] <th0r> MaT-dg: if you installed it from a deb the first time, the deb should still be on your computer.
[17:12] <hotstew> hmm it's weird that there's no word about Google when you click on About in Chromium
[17:13] <MaT-dg> th0r: I have a fresh install
[17:13] <Pici> KrisDouglas: It does.
[17:13] <daedaluz> KrisDouglas: if your distro is 64bit installation you're automatically using 64bit versions of everything

[17:18] <abhijit> hello all
[17:19] <adriancarrio> Hi, do you know if there's a way to control ubuntu's windows via C programming?
[17:19] <abhijit> i just got alert from adobe to install some update and now it is asking for html library location. any help?
[17:19] <kpettit> Question:  Anybody tell me how to get my sound volume icon back?  Not sure what I did but it's gone and I can't see it in the avaiable applets
[17:19] <trism> kpettit: add the indicator applet back to your panel (in 10.04)
[17:19] <IdleOne> kpettit: it is in Indicator Applet
[17:20] <kpettit> ok thanks.  checking...
[17:20] <phixxor> Hey everyone here is a question: I have one of those "boot ubuntu from usb" things, but my dad's laptop can't boot from USB. Is there a CD I can boot from that will let me run Ubuntu from USB?
[17:20] <abhijit> adriancarrio, what you actualy want to do? do you mean programming linux gui?
[17:20] <kinygos> hi all, on ubuntu server, meaning no windowing system, anyone have any idea how i can capture all of the i/o for an interactive Python session?
[17:20] <kpettit> trism, IdleOne I added it and I see the power off icon but no sound icon for volumn
[17:21] <trism> kpettit: power off is in indicator applet session, volume is just in indicator applet
[17:21] <trism> kpettit: their names are confusing
[17:21] <kpettit> ah ok.  checking..
[17:22] <kpettit> there we go.  Thanks
[17:22] <cannonball> ok back.. whom was helping me
[17:23] <adriancarrio> i want to set focus on certain ubuntu's windows via programming
[17:23] <cannonball> anywho.. I did the pings for ya..
[17:24] <MrJones> hi
[17:24] <MrJones> I don't know whether this is considered severe enough to fix it, but it caused me days of headache and misunderstandings (also it took very long to find some hacker who was eventually skilled enough to find out what went wrong):
[17:25] <cannonball> ok I can ping and whois <IP_ADDRESS>, but I can not ping yahoo.com, ect..
[17:25] <MrJones> if I attempt to load a fedora .so file on ubuntu (compiled on fedora 13) WITHOUT -fno-stack-protector (which means it requires a newer glibc than ubuntu 8.04 lts has)
[17:25] <samba_> hello boyz,girls and nerds I've my laptop with no sound sound chip is ICH9 I've tryed every google link, anybody can help me try some solution ?
[17:25] <MrJones> then ubuntu 8.04 lts spits out something about "ELF file OS ABI invalid"
[17:25] <MrJones> (when attempting to dlopen() it)
[17:25] <MrJones> that person who finally found out the cause of this told me this error message was most likely wrong and should be improved
[17:26] <cannonball> so it seems my nameserver isnt worki9ng what do I do
[17:26] <MrJones> also most people I told about it were just helpless and not saying anything more useful than "meh you cannot run fedora-compiled things on ubuntu"
[17:26]  * abhijit has an observation that the channel is less helpfull these days................
[17:26] <MrJones> (which isn't true if you make sure you don't use newer glibc features)
[17:26] <MrJones> should I file a bug report about this? is it a known issue? is it going to be changed anyway?
[17:26] <MrJones> or is this intended and I just ran into the wrong people of which noone was able to read that error properly
[17:27] <thune3> adriancarrio: the command is wmctrl -a, look there
[17:27] <abhijit> !pm | adriancarrio
[17:27] <samba_> so nobody have a soundcard with no sound . like me?
[17:27] <skrite> hey all, i don't know what i did, been using fluxbox for a while, running gnome now but it puts an icon on my desktop for everything in my home folder.
[17:27] <adriancarrio> sorry
[17:27] <DX099> !nouveau
[17:28] <sipior> MrJones: doesn't sounds like an ubuntu-specific problem. have you tried the reverse, linking to an ubuntu-supplied library under fedora?
[17:28] <MrJones> sipior: it IS a glibc problem, since that .so was NOT compiled with -fno-stack-protector and therefore relies on some newer one (you can check that in the symbols) and after adding -fno-stack-protector it works just fine
[17:29] <cannonball> so nobody knows how to help.. ugh.. where is taht guy from a sec ago
[17:29] <MrJones> sipior: therefore I'd be pretty surprised if you wanted to tell me it's not simply a glibc versioning issue
[17:29] <picard1421> can anyone helPP
[17:29] <picard1421> http://pastebin.com/zFyav6jd
[17:29] <picard1421> ?
[17:29] <MrJones> the error message rather reflects some kernel ABI thing though
[17:29] <MrJones> and that's what's rather confusing
[17:29] <samba_> cannonball,  paste your /etc/resolv.conf
[17:29] <erUSUL> cannonball: what does /etc/resolv.conf looks like ?
[17:29] <sipior> MrJones: odd that you didn't answer my question. i take it the answer is "no"?
[17:29] <MrJones> sipior: wait a second, I'll reread it
[17:30] <cannonball> it has nameserver set to my dns and 2nd dns..<IP_ADDRESS>
[17:30] <DX099> how can i remove the "nouveau" driver assuming that the blacklist won't work ?
[17:30] <MrJones> sipior: I tried running ubuntu applications on fedora which cannot load any of the fedora libs with the same error (most likely due to glibc problems again). I did not try to load an ubuntu .so under fedora though, no
[17:30] <picard1421> ?
[17:30] <th0r> sipior: it would be more fun to use suse to try to link an ubuntu file within fedora. With a little effort we could include all the major distros in one fell swoop
[17:30] <econdudeawesome> Howdy! How do i get rid of the gnome panel in the default ubuntu install?  It's greyed out....
[17:30] <erUSUL> cannonball: and can you ping that nameserver?
[17:30] <cannonball> no
[17:30] <sipior> th0r: indeed :-)
[17:31] <samba_> cannonball,  so this nameserver sucks
[17:31] <cannonball> lol, but it works fine in windows
[17:31] <samba_> try with first nameserver as <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:32] <cannonball> ok
[17:32] <cannonball> leave 2nd alone?
[17:32] <yessirofficer> Who wants to join a 4man game? Its really fun.  http://team.forsvarsmakten.se/english/#/private/dp3wu7ywmK
[17:32] <oCean_> yessirofficer: don't paste that here
[17:32] <Pici> !ot | yessirofficer
[17:32] <samba_> cannonball,  pleas paste me your resolv.conf
[17:33] <samba_> then set as fist nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:33] <cannonball> I cant paste it, i;'m in windows...
[17:33] <sipior> MrJones: also, have you tried running this on a modern ubuntu?
[17:33] <cannonball> wait
[17:33] <cannonball> lol
[17:33] <samba_> lol
[17:33] <leagris> Hello, what is the official acceptable policy about promoting and providing other support chat services for ubuntu? I joined a jabber.org channel that was created by an individual. Would it be appropriate to spread word about it and have it documented somewhere in community wiki?
[17:34] <samba_> picard1421,  do u have all deps/libs installed for installing ovencv?
[17:34] <picard1421> i thnk?
[17:35] <samba_> so, looking for the deps for opencv
[17:35] <MrJones> sipior: not yet. I guess if the glibc it uses is new enough it won't be a problem. I'm just wondering whether that "ELF OS ABI invalid" error shouldn't be changed to something more verbose
[17:35] <MrJones> although I have no idea if that's possible
[17:35] <samba_> I think picard1421 you  have lost something
[17:36] <abhijit> after removing kde i followed istruction here: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome then i started to get pgadmin3 and coldeltie relocation error. all details here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1542391
[17:36] <abhijit> leagris, try in #ubuntu-docs
[17:37] <leagris> thanks abhijit will ask there
[17:37] <abhijit> leagris, try in #ubuntu-doc <-
[17:37] <sipior> MrJones: i'm not sure it's worth the trouble, frankly, but you could certainly take it up with the glibc folks.
[17:38] <sipior> MrJones: the problem, of course, is that to a glibc hacker, that probably is a pretty verbose message :-)
[17:39] <econdudeawesome> Howdy! How do i get rid of the gnome panel in the default ubuntu install?  It's greyed out....
[17:39] <MrJones> sipior: yea, but I ran into pretty unfriendly people
[17:40] <sipior> MrJones: par for the course, i'm afraid.
[17:40] <MrJones> sipior: when I tried to get help in fedora I nearly got kickbanned because it was "not a fedora-related"
[17:40] <MrJones> when I asked here, I got no help either since I compiled on fedora
[17:40] <MrJones> on linuxquestions.org, nobody had even a slight idea what that means
[17:40] <glphvgacs> atterer.net is down, any idea?
[17:40] <MrJones> in the end I was lucky enough to eventually meet a person that had enough readelf skills to examine the difference and track down what the actual difference of the ubuntu-compiled and fedora-compiled .so file was
[17:40] <picard1421> samba_ what do  you mean?
[17:40] <MrJones> and why the latter wouldn't work
[17:40] <MrJones> >.>
[17:40] <picard1421> samba_i thought i had everything installed?

[17:43] <Njh> does anyone know about setting up repositories for apt or know a chat to go to
[17:43] <carlos_> ola
[17:44] <carlos_> carlos
[17:44] <samba_> Njh,  what u need ?
[17:44] <samba_> hola carlos_
[17:44] <Njh> samba_: i have a repository, but i want to change the name in synaptic ... like it syays what server its from, but i want to be able to change that
[17:46] <samba_> ok, Njh how did u have insert the repos ?
[17:47] <Njh> samba_: ? ... i used reprepro to make the repository
[17:48] <samba_> very bad so you dont know how to add a repos manually ?
[17:48] <samba_> :P
[17:48] <samba_> !repo
[17:48] <Njh> is there a chat for apt?
[17:49] <wedwo> Njh, goto system >>admin >> software sources and either add a new one or edit the existing one
[17:49] <samba_> Njh,  you are looking for this file : /etc/apt/sources.list
[17:50] <Njh> samba_: no, i know how to add it to apt, i dk how to have it change the server name that pops up, like the debs i made are on (SERVER) when looking for different versions
[17:51] <samba_> Njh,   try the wedwo solution
[17:51] <Njh> like, click anything on synaptic and get the properties
[17:51] <Njh> then look at versions
[17:52] <Njh> and most will have like (lucid) .. or what version of linux you are on, and im wondering how to change that
[17:52] <calamari> hi
[17:52] <samba_> ah, maybe I've undestand Njh ..
[17:53] <samba_> In version tab there  are the lucid version for this pkg
[17:53] <calamari> passwd keeps rejecting my new passwords.. is there a replacement passwd that I can tell to just change my password whether it thinks it's a bad password or not?
[17:53] <samba_> if u are using lucid there are only lucid pkg proposed
[17:53] <Njh> samba_: right, and my repo has the name of the server in it
[17:53] <edbian> calamari, the passwd file holds the users.  /etc/shadow actually has the passwords but they're encrypted.
[17:53] <samba_> yes
[17:54] <Njh> samba_: i want to be able to change that name .. is that possible?
[17:54] <edbian> calamari, If you could change passwords without knowing the old ones that would be a security flaw.
[17:54] <econdudeawesome> Howdy! How do i get rid of the gnome panel in the default ubuntu install?    I know my password.. passwd keeps saying my new password isn't complicated enough,etc.. it's bs and I just don't care
[17:55] <calamari> I guess I can download the source package and fix it that way
[17:55] <edbian> calamari, Are you talking about passwd the command or passwd the file?
[17:55] <Njh> samba_: ok, but i created a repo and put it on my server, and my server is called SERVER, so when i look at version numbers it has 0.12(SERVER), how do i change that
[17:55] <calamari> edbian, the command
[17:56] <TheEskimo> calamari: One moment
[17:56] <TheEskimo> calamari: The solution is in this thread I believe
[17:56] <TheEskimo> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=275457%29
[17:56] <edbian> calamari, Oohhh!!!  I don't see anything in the man page.  I guess editing the source is your only option.
[17:56] <edbian> I've never had that problem and my passwords are nothing special.
[17:58] <cannonfodder> hey youguys, i installed compiz manager on ubuntu 10.04 and i noticed it doesnt have as much animations as i seen it on previous versions...for example, the burn animation is gone....is there a way to get more animation? or install the full compiz...seems like i got a half assed version

[18:02] <samba_> econdudeawesome,  can u explain slowly what u need?
[18:03] <calamari> TheEskimo, thanks, sudo worked
[18:04] <TheEskimo> calamari: Glad to hear it
[18:05] <Tec0> how do i run "create a wireless network" with sudo as it will not let me create a ah-hoc network from GUI
[18:05] <econdudeawesome> samba_ I want to remove gnome-panels but keep alt+f2 functionality. The gnome panel that comes with the menus (applications, system, etc.) cannot be deleted--the option is greyed out. Note I'm not trying to get rid of gnome-panels entirely, just that specific panel
[18:06] <Wiesshund> Tec0 you use gksudo if your trying to root run a desktop app
[18:06] <econdudeawesome> samba_ the best I can do is shrink it, hide it in the top corner
[18:06] <Tec0> i heard that there is a issue with the NetworkManager dialog but i dont know how to get around it
[18:06] <econdudeawesome> samba_ but then I have this ugly little arrow sticking out. I'd really just like to be rid of entirely :-)
[18:06] <kryptyk> econdudeawesome - you can use gconf-editor to hide it and then set the unhide time to something uber high so you don't unhide it when you mouse near it
[18:07] <samba_> econdudeawesome,  so u need to keep gnome, but without the gnome-panel?
[18:07] <Wiesshund> econdudeawesome autohide
[18:07] <imphasing> I've been pouring over forum posts for a while, but haven't found a good solution yet: Does anyone have any patches/fixes for 10.04's Hibernate/suspend problem? This seems to be a pretty prevelent bug, so I'm hoping someone has ID'd the cause.
[18:07] <econdudeawesome> samba_ preferably. Wiesshund doesn't work very well. Kryptyk thats a good idea. How many milliseconds do you reckon? 40000?
[18:08] <samba_> You can disable the gnome panel by going to Sessions-->Current Session and remove gnome panel from the list of running applications.
[18:08] <imphasing> Just in case you guys don't know, Lucid has a problem where suspend won't resume, and requires a manual restart.
[18:08] <Tec0> Wiesshund, thanks! what is the application name of "create a wireless network"
[18:08] <samba_> Then go to Session Options and click on the Remember button..
[18:08] <Besogon> econdudeawesome, logicaly you shoud have a work with gconftool-2
[18:08] <econdudeawesome> samba_ that causes me to lose alt+f2 functionality
[18:08] <Wiesshund> imphasing not sure cause luckily mine works
[18:08] <econdudeawesome> Besogon ?? haven't heard of othat one, only gconf-editor
[18:08] <kryptyk> econdudeawesome - that would probably work. Trial and error may be needed to find a good timing. If you ever need the panel back, just adjust the time so you can unhide it normally
[18:09] <imphasing> Wiesshund: It seems to happen most on laptops, from what I've seen.
[18:09] <Tec0> Wiesshund, are u running 10.4 ? and your able to create ad-hoc networks ?
[18:09] <adamramadhan> wew
[18:09] <adamramadhan> i think i found a bug
[18:09] <Wiesshund> imphasing, ah. only laptop i have boots via boot prom
[18:09] <imphasing> Ah, ok
[18:09] <samba_> econdudeawesome,  this feature is in gnome-panel so u have to choose : do u want gnome panel or not ?
[18:09] <adamramadhan> anyway its ok
[18:09] <imphasing> It seems like earlier kernel versions didn't have this bug, as well.
[18:09] <Wiesshund> Tec0 i dont use wireless so i cant check
[18:09] <Besogon> econdudeawesome, that is a utility wich works with gnome-reestr from command line
[18:10] <adamramadhan> does anyone knows how to connect my ubuntu to my windows on \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
[18:10] <Tec0> is anyone having a issue creating a ad-hoc network under 10.4 ?
[18:10] <adamramadhan> ?
[18:10] <samba_> although you can start at boot the fbrun
[18:10] <adamramadhan> on windows we just can press \\ipaddress
[18:10] <samba_> is like gnome-run but is perfect for fluxbox
[18:10] <erUSUL> adamramadhan: Places>connect to Server
[18:10] <Wiesshund> econdudeawesome i just removed gnome menu from panel
[18:10] <Tec0> adamramadhan, how do you want to connect to your box ? over smb ?
[18:10] <erUSUL> adamramadhan: or Places>Network>Windows Network
[18:10] <adamramadhan> windows sare ?
[18:11] <econdudeawesome> samba_ fair enough. I want gnome-panel. I don't want that specific panel. If there isn't a direct way I'll try kryptyk's workaround. Any idea where to find the timing for gnome-panel in gconf-editor?
[18:11] <l3> Hello All: on my system the process "bootchart" is starting in an infinite loop (ps aux | grep bootchart shows a new PID every time).  Is this normal?  Last reboot it was at 100% cpu, right now it is not, but I wonder why it is starting in a loop.

Is there a specific reason it does this? for example, they all crash when loading acid3 test, except konqueror when using KHTML.
[18:12] <Wiesshund> econdudeawesome i right clicked the ubuntu logo to left of it and picked remove from panel

[18:15] <dAnjou> hi, where is the java cache in ubuntu 10.04? and where is it, when i run the java programm as root?
[18:15] <abhishek> tx ubottu
[18:15] <kryptyk> econdudeawesome: you have to adjust the hidden size
[18:15] <Guest49244> you shouldnt run programs as root, ive heard
[18:15] <burg__> got a *very* annoying problem: I updated my ubuntu system (10.04) today, and now my mouse wheel doesn't work anymore for scrolling...
[18:16] <burg__> yet clicking the mousewheel does work
[18:16] <econdudeawesome> where is that?
[18:16] <kryptyk> econdudeawesome: the value (in the same location) is auto_hide_size. Set this to 0 or -1 and you should not see it anymore when it is hidden.
[18:16] <burg__> I noticed some changes with hw detection in 10.04, but this is quite sucking
[18:16] <cheater99> hi

[18:16] <Guest49244> so no one has had problems with webkit?
[18:17] <cheater99> i have a laptop with an ide drive. can i clone the drive to a sata drive and just put that drive in a new laptop and then it'll work?
[18:17] <adamramadhan> hello

[18:17] <kochab> hellllloooo
[18:17] <adamramadhan> i still cant connect my windows shared
[18:17] <wrigley> Hey Guys,I#m new to irc.Can anyone tell why its not possible to run windows games over 1 extra xserver with wine??standard games which are installed are working!
[18:17] <adamramadhan> i have not use any password nor workgroups
[18:17] <imphasing> cheater99: Only if the new laptop has the exact same hardware. You'll probably see some issues, so I would just do a clean install.
[18:17] <adamramadhan> cant we just enter //ipadress or something
[18:18] <cheater99> i don't want to do a clean install
[18:18] <cheater99> why would it have to have the exact same hardware?
[18:18] <cheater99> wouldn't it be just like if i had upgraded my hardware?
[18:18] <burg__> so, nobody came in with a simple PS2 mouse wheel problem after updating?
[18:18] <cheater99> new gfx card etc
[18:18] <imphasing> cheater99: That would break stuff too, possibly
[18:18] <adamramadhan> hello?
[18:18] <econdudeawesome> kryptyk still not going away....
[18:18] <econdudeawesome> we'll see on a reboot
[18:19] <adamramadhan> windows share ? is that corrent ?>
[18:19] <Guest49244> does anyone have webkit problems?????
[18:19] <cheater99> imphasing: are you saying it is not possible to upgrade hardware in ubuntu?
[18:19] <adamramadhan> it keep on say " HOMEGROUP " thing
[18:19] <imphasing> cheater99: Do what you want, but cloning a different system to a new system is just asking for problems. You're not deploying to identical servers here, I'm assuming.
[18:19] <imphasing> cheater99: You just would have to install all the new drivers and such
[18:19] <imphasing> It would just be easier to do a clean install, since there could be LOTS of hidden issues.
[18:19] <cheater99> no, my laptop is not a server
[18:20] <kryptyk> econdudeawesome: is it still drawing the whole panel? or just a piece of it when it is hidden?
[18:20] <iceroot> adamramadhan: \\ipadress not //ipadress
[18:20] <cheater99> installing new drivers doesn't sound so bad!
[18:20] <adamramadhan> yes i mean that iceroot:
[18:20] <adamramadhan> how can i connect to windows from this ubuntu
[18:20] <adamramadhan> any good way?
[18:20] <imphasing> Like I said, do what you want. It's probably going to be a big hassle anyway though, and you'll end up doing a clean install :P
[18:20] <JodaZ> why doesn't the ubuntu vpn manager accept .p12 files for openvpn ?
[18:20] <thune3> Guest49244: is your problem only with acid3 test? if so, that's more of a development issue than a practical problem.
[18:21] <cheater99> imphasing: what sort of hidden issues are you talking about?
[18:21] <Guest49244> thune3, no its not only acid3, that was only an example, i think it crashes on javascript-heavy sites
[18:21] <iceroot> adamramadhan: normally \\ipadress in nautlis should work, its using the smbclient at background
[18:21] <imphasing> cheater99: Probably kernel panic, since the modules that are being loaded aren't going to work with the different system.
[18:21] <abhijit> !pm | abhishek
[18:21] <JodaZ> cheater99, ignore him, just dd it over, you might wana regenerate keys or something...
[18:22] <letas> hello everyone - is there a way to implement a file locking system where a file can only be opened once regardless of the editor being used!?
[18:22] <imphasing> JodaZ: ... really dude?
[18:22] <Guest49244> ive had it working before in ubuntu, but i uninstalled and installed Xubuntu, then installed kde, then installed qtwebkit, then i have these problems
[18:22] <adamramadhan> iceroot: nope it doent work. it says not found
[18:22] <JodaZ> imphasing, since when is this windows where there are drivers n shit
[18:22] <imphasing> Look, do what you guys want. I'm just trying to make it easier for you.
[18:22] <cheater99> JodaZ: yeah, i was just trying to drag him on
[18:22] <abhishek> ok ubottu got it :)
[18:22] <Pici> JodaZ: Please mind your language here, this is a family friendly channel.
[18:22] <cheater99> JodaZ: keys?
[18:22] <iceroot> adamramadhan: and the ip is correct and windows has shares?
[18:22] <imphasing> JodaZ: ...
[18:22] <calamari> letas, something like that might already exist, I don't know... however you should be able to implement that using FUSE
[18:23] <imphasing> JodaZ: Every bit of hardware needs a driver to work, dude.
[18:23] <JodaZ> cheater99, like ssh priv keys
[18:23] <cheater99> JodaZ: ok
[18:23] <JodaZ> imphasing, yes, and all is detected on boot
[18:23] <cheater99> JodaZ: that doesn't sound as back
[18:23] <cheater99> *bad
[18:23] <imphasing> JodaZ: Whatever dude. Have fun misleading people.
[18:23] <Guest49244> thune3, i installed it from synaptics, would a complete reinstall of system fix it?
[18:23] <jayeola> hey chaps. can any one recommend a webacm to use on a laptop?
[18:23] <cheater99> JodaZ: btw, do you know if i would have to install a different kernel if upgrading from pentium 3 to core i7?
[18:23] <ddilinger> So, i'm a bit of an old school debian person, not familiar with alot of the developments of the last 6-8 years ... are there any pages describing why use aptitude over apt-get ?
[18:24] <letas> thanks calamari - I will keep looking i think I tried using FUSE but didn't get it to work properly maybe an ID10T error :(
[18:24] <jayeola> by the way - i _have_ seen the hardware compatability list ;-)
[18:24] <JodaZ> cheater99, unlikely, the default kernel will propably be a i368
[18:24] <cheater99> JodaZ: i don't know if ubuntu has a special kernel for different processors or if it just selects the right thing
[18:24] <cheater99> ok
[18:24] <calamari> letas, doubtful.. FUSE is tricky to get right
[18:24] <JodaZ> cheater99, check with uname -a
[18:24] <abhishek> hi i want to join to do the development in c++ networking. can any one help . . where to head for first project
[18:24] <cheater99> it certainly is now
[18:24] <cheater99> but i don't know about the i7
[18:24] <cheater99> since it's SMP
[18:25] <cannonfodder> hey you guys i install compiz-extras   or something like that...anyways  how do i turn them on?  my setting manager shows nothign new when i look for the extra animations
[18:25] <adamramadhan> still cant find a way to connect my shared folder ( windows ) on an ip ( witout no password etc )
[18:25] <econdudeawesome> kryptyk worked fine. I set the positions and size all over the place off the screen
[18:25] <adamramadhan> anyone ?
[18:25] <cheater99> makes me wonder, is it possible to upgrade ubuntu from 32 to 64 bit?
[18:25] <duffydack> no
[18:25] <Besogon> letas, man update-alternatives ?
[18:25] <jayeola> econdudeawesome: places/ connect to server
[18:25] <JodaZ> cheater99, i suggest backing up your home folder and installing fresh
[18:25] <econdudeawesome> kryptyk there doesn't seem to be any way to get rid of the panel otherwise without disabling gnome-panel, which I did not want to do
[18:25] <calamari> letas, I know there are existing fuse implementations of fat32, ext2, etc.. perhaps you can use one of those and pass the option to disallow multiple tasks
[18:25] <Guest49244> thune3, they also crash when clicking on videos in youtube.
[18:25] <econdudeawesome> jayeola whats that?
[18:26] <Besogon> letas, but I don't sure
[18:26] <JodaZ> cheater99, i mean thats what the idea is all about, usually copying whole sys over isn't a good idea
[18:26] <imphasing> JodaZ: Like I was saying.
[18:26] <jayeola> that's from teh gnome menu. use that to connect to a doze/samba share?
[18:26] <JodaZ> imphasing, for the absofloutely wrong reasons tho
[18:26] <abhishek> hi i want to join development in c++ networking. can any one help . . where to head for first project
[18:26] <letas> Besogon let me look for it - I never thought of it
[18:26] <kryptyk> econdudeawesome: that has been my experience. Gnome will make you keep at least one panel. I generally don't need any since I use a dock for apps and window management
[18:27] <jayeola> xfce4 on a desktop and fluxbox on a laptop for me ;-)
[18:27] <slidinghorn> abhishek, ##c++
[18:27] <imphasing> JodaZ: I'm sure.
[18:27] <adamramadhan> helloo anyone ?
[18:27] <slidinghorn> !patience | adamramadhan
[18:27] <abhishek> i didn't get u slidnghorn
[18:27] <adamramadhan> noooooooooooooo
[18:27] <cheater99> JodaZ: what idea?
[18:27] <letas> calamari mm let's see this - I am googling now
[18:27] <slidinghorn> abhishek, that's the channel you should ask your question in.  type /join ##c++
[18:27] <LetsGo67> How do I use Ubuntu 10.04 on an iMac G3?
[18:28] <erUSUL> !ppc | LetsGo67
[18:28] <calamari> letas, I'm trying to find the option.. it's not an -o option so I always struggle with it
[18:28] <abhishek> ohhh thx slidinghorn
[18:28] <jayeola> LetsGo67: install refit and dual boot, google that
[18:28] <JodaZ> cheater99, of the home folder
[18:28] <adamramadhan> !connectwindowssharedfolder
[18:28] <LetsGo67> jayeola: but it's all blank screen!
[18:28] <adamramadhan> umm ok.
[18:28] <Besogon> letas, Other way (may be more good for you) is to make some programs files belong to a group. And get them right to implement if a user a belongs to the group
[18:28] <slidinghorn> !samba > adamramadhan
[18:29] <cheater99> oh ok

[18:30] <letas> some of them connect as nobody / nouser
[18:31] <jayeola> when your mbp boots go for the refit menu.
[18:31] <jayeola> something to do with efi and partititions.
[18:31] <adamramadhan> wew
[18:31] <letas> airtonix dreamweaver for example, I have never gotten to login using a regular user... it always picks nobody / nogroup
[18:31] <adamramadhan> i just dont get samda thing
[18:31] <adamramadhan> anyway
[18:31] <airtonix> letas, what ?
[18:31] <Pici> adamramadhan: What exactly is your problem?
[18:31] <adamramadhan> is the smd:// thing worrking?
[18:32] <Wiesshund> blitzo hey i was wondering... your laptops nic didnt have a boot prom?

[18:32] <letas> airtonix?? Maybe I am confused with what you asked
[18:32] <airtonix> adamramadhan, you need to turn on simple file sharing then
[18:32] <adamramadhan> airtonix
[18:32] <adamramadhan> how to do that?
[18:33] <adamramadhan> connect to server then pick which one Pici: ?
[18:33] <airtonix> adamramadhan, on windows : tools > folder view (whatever), scrol scrol scroll, enable simple file sharing (tick)
[18:33] <adamramadhan> then on this notebook ? how can i get that file from here?
[18:34] <Pici> adamramadhan: Windows Share, and then fill in the rest with what windows computer you want to connect to
[18:34] <Besogon> letas, let them be not the 'nogroup' but any other group you like
[18:34] <adamramadhan> Pici:the problem is the domain
[18:34] <adamramadhan> Pici: what is that thing anyway ?
[18:34] <airtonix> adamramadhan, open home folder from desktop, press ctrl + L, type smb://ip-address-of-your-windows-machine-here , after connection open a share folder, then book mark it
[18:34] <Pici> adamramadhan: Put in the name of the computer that you're connecting to there.

[18:41] <letas> Besogon it is cool man - I know we're all here trying to help the community - I do appreciate your help and concern
[18:42] <airtonix> manu24531, many times at various places
[18:42] <airtonix> manu24531, mostly when i turn the monitor off
[18:42] <manu24531> airtonix, did you find any way around it?
[18:42] <manu24531> lol
[18:42] <airtonix> manu24531, yeah i turn it back on
[18:42] <leagris> MamboKing: may be ethtools
[18:42] <adamramadhan> ok im near to giveup :|
[18:42] <manu24531> funny
[18:42] <manu24531> but this is a laptop
[18:42] <airtonix> manu24531, point is, you didn't give much info
[18:43] <Besogon> adamramadhan, let me ask you again. You have windows machin, right? (XP or W7 I don't care)  So. Have you windows securety 'user' or 'guest'?
[18:43] <adamramadhan> windows7
[18:43] <manu24531> ok info, i boot the live cd and any option i choose takes me to a blank screen with a cursor and nothing happens
[18:43] <airtonix> Besogon, this is a question that doesn't mean anything unless you're editing the smb.conf
[18:43] <adamramadhan> im a user of windows. what do you mean by have you windows security ?
[18:43] <airtonix> (and i doubt adamramadhan is editing the smb.conf)
[18:44] <adamramadhan> :|
[18:44] <Besogon> airtonix, yes. he have to do that I think any way.
[18:44] <Vespero> I have a problem: I run Gnome, but I use the KDE program Kolourpaint. After I use it, all of my bars and icons get this altered appearence. Opening "Appearence" fixes the bars, but Nautilus is still beige and blocky. Restarting Nautilus does not help. Any suggestions?
[18:44] <adamramadhan> this is a fresh install mate :|
[18:44] <airtonix> Besogon, .... no
[18:44] <manu24531> this is the laptop specs http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01817215&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&lc=en&dlc=he&cc=il&lang=he&product=4000370
[18:44] <jigal> trism: tnx no version of xdebug was installed ;-)

[18:44] <adamramadhan> i a php developer that dont know ubuntu
[18:44] <adamramadhan> :|
[18:45] <airtonix> adamramadhan, did you turn on simple file sharing yet in windows ?
[18:45] <adamramadhan> nope. let me try
[18:45] <adamramadhan> on option advance right ?
[18:45] <adamramadhan> wait a sec
[18:45] <airtonix> adamramadhan, you wont get anywhere until you do
[18:45] <Besogon> adamramadhan, it seems you don't know Windows too. but ok. If you haven't change the windows then your windows securety should be 'user'

[18:46] <batshwa> hi, everybody
[18:46] <batshwa> i've got an annoying problem with my xubuntu
[18:46] <airtonix> !ask | batshwa
[18:47] <wildc4rd> evenin' all
[18:47] <manu24531> is it posible that lucid lynx is just not compatible with the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650?
[18:47] <airtonix> other way round
[18:47] <batshwa> after an upgrade to 10.04 from 9.10 my system freezes from time to time -- i've noticed this happens whenever man-db or mandb run
[18:47] <Besogon> adamramadhan, you should definetly install 'system-config-samba'
[18:47] <adamramadhan> ok
[18:47] <adamramadhan> i did that :)
[18:48] <adamramadhan> is samba easy ?
[18:48] <Tux43> Manu24531: Are you using a usb boot or a cd?
[18:48] <airtonix> adamramadhan, you followed that page i linked ?
[18:48] <adamramadhan> yes
[18:48] <manu24531> a cd tux
[18:48] <aeon-ltd> batshwa: sounds like a bug, you should report it, does cpu spike or does it just feeze?
[18:48] <adamramadhan> i did that do my drive C D and E
[18:48] <manu24531> i have burned two already
[18:48] <adamramadhan> even F
[18:48] <aeon-ltd> *freeze
[18:48] <manu24531> both at slowest speed
[18:48] <airtonix> adamramadhan, now restart windows and try that connection again from ubuntu
[18:48] <manu24531> both give me same results
[18:48] <batshwa> after waiting about 3-5 mins everything works again fine
[18:48] <adamramadhan> ok
[18:48] <airtonix> !enter | manu24531
[18:48] <batshwa> wha does "spike" mean?
[18:48] <Tux43> Manu24531:  Did you burn the cd or did you request the cd?
[18:48] <adamramadhan> up to my room again. :|
[18:49] <aeon-ltd> batshwa: when the cpu suddenly reaches 100%
[18:49] <manu24531> sorry i will keep one line from now on, i burned the cd tux
[18:49] <aeon-ltd> batshwa: or near 100%
[18:49] <Besogon> adamramadhan, then you shoud know what user is used for connecting to windows share
[18:49] <batshwa> no, conky shows almost no activity
[18:49] <batshwa> the cpu is constantly at 3-5 %
[18:49] <Besogon> adamramadhan, user and password
[18:49] <dirk_> gday, can anyone recommend a USB Bluetooth v2 class1
[18:50] <airtonix> Besogon, obviously, but you're missing key elements in windows networking...
[18:50] <Tux43> Manu24531: try reburning the cd keep it on the lowest speed. I have noticed that many times. I had to adjust the speed to the higest before I got it to work.
[18:50] <batshwa> plus, at the upgrade process two packages failed to upgrade: libavahi_core and autoconf
[18:50] <adamramadhan> back
[18:50] <Besogon> airtonix, what elements I have missed
[18:50] <airtonix> adamramadhan, so windows machine has been restarted ? and you have desired folder shared ?
[18:50] <adamramadhan> yes
[18:50] <manu24531> in burned 2 cds already both at slowest speeds , both same result
[18:51] <batshwa> aeon-ltd, do you think i should report it as a bug?
[18:51] <aeon-ltd> batshwa: try updating again, if it doesn't work report a bug
[18:51] <Tux43> manu24531: what did you use to burn the disk?
[18:51] <batshwa> maybe it's something to do with my pc?
[18:51] <Besogon> airtonix, what autentification W7 uses lanman or lanman2 or something else?
[18:51] <batshwa> aeon-ltd, update what?
[18:51] <airtonix> Besogon, 1) that a windows user who has not touched linux before will have no concept of the terms "user" or "guest" network security mode. 2) that unless you turn simple file sharing on in windows you need to have identical user accounts on both machines to even get username password authentication to work
[18:52] <batshwa> synaptic does not run, i cannot run apt-get at all
[18:52] <aeon-ltd> batshwa: packages (sudo apt-get update)
[18:52] <manu24531> the first one i burned it on vista with the burner that the ubuntu site recommends, the second i burned it with brasero on the karmic i have installed on my desktop
[18:52] <batshwa> aeon-ltd, apt-get returns a "Bus eror"
[18:52] <adamramadhan> anyway how can we delate a bookmarked on places ?
[18:52] <adamramadhan> it still cant work
[18:52] <airtonix> adamramadhan, try connecting to the windows machine again from ubuntu. 1) left click on the desktop 2) press control and L 3) type : smb://<IP_ADDRESS>
[18:53] <pixelpusher> hi
[18:53] <pedro_> boas povo
[18:53] <Tux43> manu24531: All you had to do in karmic is right click on the iso and click write to disk.
[18:53] <pedro_> sou novo por estas bandas do linux
[18:53] <adamramadhan> L3 ?
[18:53] <Besogon> airtonix, So tell him that Linux have to have 2 user and password data base for LAN
[18:53] <adamramadhan> press L3 ?

[18:54] <xangua> pedro_: openoffice comes preinstalled in ubuntu
[18:54] <xangua> and kubuntu i believe
[18:54] <Besogon> airtonix, One data base with users for linux account and the second data base for samba accounts.
[18:54] <manu24531> tux: Well yeah I am new to ubuntu, still the brasero did the work, the cd starts well its after i press install ubuntu (or any other option from the menu) that I get a blank screen and cant go forward
[18:54] <OldCode101> is there a better way to RDP into ubuntu from a windows PC, trying to get into my personal server from the office
[18:54] <airtonix> Besogon, no... i would not even bother trying to educate them on that ...
[18:54] <Tux43> manu24531: Try burning the way I said and it will work.
[18:55] <xangua> manu24531: have you tried use a usb stick instead of cd¿¿

[18:56] <Besogon> airtonix, then I think he should change securety on Windows and write securety in smb.conf as 'guest' and all will be good. (may be if the won't be any troubles with ysers permissions on linux )
[18:57] <adamramadhan> securety ?
[18:57] <adamramadhan> security ?
[18:57] <adamramadhan> or securety ?
[18:57] <manu24531> ok guys I am gonna try installing through a usb stick, hopefully it will work

[18:58] <adamramadhan> btw how can we delate the bookmark on Places
[18:58] <airtonix> adamramadhan, so did you connect to the windows machine ?
[18:58] <adamramadhan> i give up men
[18:58] <adamramadhan> no
[18:58] <adamramadhan> i use a usb insted
[18:58] <adamramadhan> :|
[18:58] <FloodBot1> adamramadhan: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:58] <adamramadhan> yeah sorry bot or what ever
[18:58] <airtonix> ffs
[18:59] <xangua> adamramadhan: edit the bookmarks with nautilus
[18:59] <brontoeee> adamramadhan, in nautilus ....
[18:59] <aeon-ltd> batshwa:  according to this guy http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2070840 you should delete the cached packages then run apt-get update/upgrade again
[18:59] <adamramadhan> thanks
[18:59] <airtonix> adamramadhan, you know what nautilus is ?
[18:59] <adamramadhan> yup
[18:59] <manu24531> hold on, the tutorial you guys gave me says its for installing 9.10 with an usb stick, should it be the same for 10.4? maybe its a stupid question, just making sure
[18:59] <adamramadhan> im a novice linux but not a idiot one, im a php developer
[18:59] <Besogon> adamramadhan, "how can we delate the bookmark on Places" look in ~/.gtk-bookmarks
[19:00] <airtonix> adamramadhan, honestly, that doesn't mean anything
[19:00] <batshwa> aeon-ltd, thanks a lot, i will try this now
[19:00] <Tux43> adamramadhan: Are you trying to connect to a windows machine?
[19:00] <adamramadhan> yes tex
[19:00] <adamramadhan> tux43
[19:00] <abhijit> after removing kde i followed istruction here: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome then i started to get pgadmin3 and coldeltie relocation error. all details here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1542391
[19:00] <airtonix> Besogon, why do you keep offering the most obtuse methods to novices ?
[19:00] <lars_> good bye
[19:00] <adamramadhan> ok delated
[19:01] <adamramadhan> well i do can share with ftp ( setup with windows ftp server ) but thats to nerdy
[19:01] <Besogon> airtonix, As I do it so. ;)
[19:01] <adamramadhan> and hard
[19:01] <airtonix> Besogon, maybe you should suggest how to use nmap to see if the windows machine is actually showing the ports for smb
[19:02] <Tux43> adamramadhan: Go to places click connect to server. Select Windows Share and put in your ip address for your windows machine. Check the book mark button on the bottom and give it a name. Then you're done.
[19:02] <letas> adamramdhan - srry to join so late - but can u a least ping between the machines?
[19:02] <airtonix> adamramadhan, "nerdy" says the "php developer"
[19:02] <adamramadhan> letas: good idea
[19:02] <adamramadhan> connected
[19:02] <adamramadhan> ttl 128 1<s
[19:03] <airtonix> adamramadhan, thats fine but it doesn't mean your smb ports on the windows machine are open
[19:03] <manu24531> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick should this procedure work on lucid?
[19:03] <Tux43> adamramadhan: Did it work?
[19:03] <jigal> does this mean http://pastebin.com/uwLD39WN that xdebug is not installed?
[19:03] <adamramadhan> airtonix: i dont even know whats smb port are
[19:03] <batshwa> aeon-ltd, will try to run apt-get now -- if I don't answer in two minutes then my system has freezed ;) i will come back to you in a moment
[19:03] <adamramadhan> btw my firewall is off
[19:03] <adamramadhan> totally off
[19:03] <aeon-ltd> batshwa: ok
[19:03] <adamramadhan> oh wait my antivirus.
[19:03] <Tux43> Manu24531: Yes, it should work
[19:03] <manu24531> cool tux thanks
[19:03] <letas> adamramadhan please try this in nautilus in the location bar type: smb://ip_address_ubuntu_machine
[19:03] <airtonix> adamramadhan, antivirus should not be controlling availability of ports
[19:04] <Besogon> airtonix, I do not know anything of nmap. Because as I said I wasn't a administrator but an engineer
[19:04] <josuar> erst mal testen hallo
[19:05] <letas> besogon have you heard they say: "Don't use a bazooka to kill a fly" nmap is the bazooka in this case
[19:05] <adamramadhan> back
[19:05] <adamramadhan> lets see
[19:05] <airtonix> letas, i disagree
[19:05] <root__> hello
[19:05] <adamramadhan> damn still failing
[19:05] <airtonix> letas, how else will you work out if ports are open ?
[19:05] <adamramadhan> its not about the firewall then
[19:06] <adamramadhan> how do i check if the ports are open
[19:06] <brontoeee> adamramadhan, by ip or name?
[19:06] <adamramadhan> ip
[19:06] <airtonix> adamramadhan, windows hostnames don't work at the commandline unless you use the smb tools.
[19:06] <helloworld> i just installed ubuntu 64 bit this morning and i installed my nvidia drivers, but 1080p video on youtube lags a lot
[19:06] <adamramadhan> i ping , turn off firewall.
[19:06] <adamramadhan> smb tools ?
[19:06] <airtonix> adamramadhan, open a terminal and type smbtree
[19:07] <brontoeee> helloworld, flash video doesnt get any vdpau as far as i know
[19:07] <adamramadhan> faild
[19:07] <airtonix> (it should list all available windows shares on the connected lan)
[19:07] <adamramadhan> faild negrot:ERRnonmen
[19:07] <batshwa> aeon-ltd, apt-get now works, thank you a lot!  i have not done apt-get update/upgrade yet, since i want to try first update-manager
[19:07] <airtonix> adamramadhan, then it means you've done something funky with your windows network sharing setup
[19:07] <adamramadhan> what language its ERRnomem :|
[19:07] <aeon-ltd> batshwa: ok your welcome :)
[19:07] <adamramadhan> hahaha loling spelling it
[19:08] <adamramadhan> fungky ?
[19:08] <adamramadhan> like what?
[19:08] <Besogon> airtonix, smbclient -L localhost works better then smbtree
[19:08] <Besogon> for me at least
[19:08] <letas> adamramadhan - maybe I jumped to quickly but you are sharing from windows to Linux or viceversa!?
[19:08] <airtonix> Besogon, what ?
[19:08] <adamramadhan> wew
[19:08] <airtonix> letas, trying to connect to a shared folder on a windows machine
[19:09] <Besogon> airtonix, I've just commented your suggestion
[19:09] <airtonix> letas, already turned simple file sharing on (with windows)
[19:09] <adamramadhan> +kudos to airtonix :|
[19:09] <adamramadhan> btw windows7
[19:09] <helloworld> brontoeee: thanks
[19:09] <adamramadhan> there is no such thing is simple file shareing
[19:09] <airtonix> Besogon, you know that your suggestion only lists shares on the localhost right ?
[19:10] <adamramadhan> but i doo add more users to the permisions
[19:10] <letas> adamramadhan windows is a pain in sharing, what version are u using?
[19:10] <adamramadhan> everyone
[19:10] <airtonix> adamramadhan, you might have said something when you read the guide I listed when the screenshots shows windows XP ??
[19:10] <adamramadhan> windows 7
[19:10] <adamramadhan> yes
[19:10] <adamramadhan> its xp
[19:10] <FloodBot1> adamramadhan: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:10] <airtonix> ...
[19:10] <Besogon> airtonix, not only on localhost but all the comuters those in the group
[19:10] <adamramadhan> mine is 7
[19:10] <adamramadhan> all there is
[19:10] <jon_> hi, when I press restart or shutdown in ubuntu the mouse + screen turn off but the computer still stays on and doesnt restart. Any ideas?
[19:10] <adamramadhan> is advance shareing and the other one
[19:10] <letas> adamramadhan let's try this set up a share in ubuntu and try to access from windows
[19:11] <adamramadhan> the otherone ( inserting users permisions )
[19:11] <adamramadhan> ok
[19:11] <JackStoner> jon_: try sudo restart
[19:11] <adamramadhan> dont tell me the samdada thing
[19:11] <jon_> JackStoner, ok but how can I fix this so it doesn't do it anymore
[19:11] <stalcup> Are there any guides on installing ubuntu on a macbook pro version 7.1?
[19:12] <airtonix> Besogon, nope it actually only lists shares from the current machine.
[19:12] <airtonix> Besogon, (it doesnt even list other samba machines)
[19:12] <JackStoner> jon_: i think you have to edit the menu ( i rarely use the menu) let me check if there's an option to edit those buttons
[19:12] <jon_> JackStoner: alrighty thanks
[19:12] <adamramadhan> men i just love unbuntu linux powers , but men its so failing when it comes to share windows.
[19:13] <Tux43> Hello, I have an Acer Aspire 3810TZ. My microphone does not work on Ubuntu 10.10 and my video player won't play mov videos. (I already installed the codex)
[19:13] <skumara> is there any software that can benchmark cpu in ubuntu?
[19:13] <JackStoner> jon_: dont see the buttons...which menu are u using?? custom or the gnome one??
[19:13] <JodaZ> x86_64 means i got 64bit kernel ?
[19:13] <Tux43> skumara: Have you tried system manager then system monitor.
[19:13] <brontoeee> Tux43, vlc and mplayer based players should play mov i think
[19:14] <jon_> JackStoner: This is a brand spankin new ubuntu install. So gnome.
[19:14] <KittyBoots> Hello.  I do not seem to be able to figure out how to assign different backgrounds to different desktops without using desktopcube.  How can I make that happen?
[19:14] <letas> adamramadhan please let me know if you know how to set up the share in Ubunut - it should be one of the easiest things to do
[19:14] <Tux43> brontoeee: I tried vlc won't install and mplayer won't play the video just the sound.
[19:14] <mustelo> on our lab machines, users authenticated over kerberos cannot login through gnome, only on the console, how can I debug this?
[19:14] <skumara> tux43 system manager? where is it?
[19:14] <JackStoner> jon_:does the menu display "application ..." or just an icon??
[19:15] <w3ccv> Holy Crap!  I just upgraded to 10.4 LTS and kinda wish I didn't.  Hardware = MSI Wind u120. A couple problems: 1 I now have a white on black "screen intensity" notice in the upper right that is flashing along with the intensity - very hard to read the screen. 2 I have a 'menu' bar in the top with a few icons in it - speaker volume, battery/AC indicator, time , and login name. I want it on the bottom, and a panel with icons I put
[19:15] <w3ccv> there, and the option to build 3 'desktops'  How do I get back to the good tried and true UI?
[19:15] <xangua> KittyBoots: you can configure diferent desktops backgrounds with compiz but you will loose the ability to have icons in the desktop
[19:15] <Tux43> Skumara: go to system on the top of the screen. Administration then system monitor.
[19:15] <KittyBoots> xangua; sure, that is great, how do I do it?
[19:15] <jon_> JackStoner: its the menu in the top right (the power icon) then I click that then press restart. Like I said earlier this is a brand new install nothing is customized or anything.
[19:15] <Besogon> airtonix, http://pastebin/KAWf9njb
[19:15] <brontoeee> Tux43, the usual research is 1. mediainfo file.mov 2. google for specific video codec to see how to play
[19:16] <Besogon> adamramadhan, Not harry
[19:16] <Tux43> brontoeee: Thanks, but I am using 10.10.
[19:16] <Besogon> hurry*
[19:16] <adamramadhan> harry potter?
[19:16] <adamramadhan> oh
[19:16] <adamramadhan> ok
[19:16] <Besogon> :)
[19:17] <JackStoner> jon_: oh ok...try and right click your panel and add custom menu to panel...try using that (when u add it it will display an icon only and u can click for the menu)
[19:17] <airtonix> adamramadhan, i wouldn't confuse your own in ability to concentrate and focus with paitence with ubuntu failing
[19:17] <adamramadhan> hahaha
[19:17] <jon_> JackStoner: k thanks
[19:17] <adamramadhan> yeah windows = money spending ubuntu = time spending
[19:17] <JackStoner> jon_: tell me if it works
[19:17] <airtonix> adamramadhan, true story, because by default all you do is turn on simple file sharing in windows xp... then done.
[19:17] <hotstew> come on adam
[19:18] <adamramadhan> its windows 7 :|
[19:18] <adamramadhan> sadly
[19:18] <malikeye|123> anybody running 10.04 on a dell mini 10" 1020?
[19:18] <hotstew> other distros need much more attention
[19:18] <jon_> JackStoner: I have to finish installing chromium, skype etc... I'll check in a minute
[19:18] <brontoeee> Tux43, i just did : sudo add-apt-repository ppa:c-korn/vlc && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install vlc
[19:18] <imphasing> malikeye|123: My GF is running it on mini 9. Having suspend issues?
[19:18] <brontoeee> on lucid, should work on 10.10 as well
[19:18] <JackStoner> jon_: k, goodluck
[19:18] <Besogon> adamramadhan, make a cap of tee or coffi may be it won't be unuseful if you buy a bottle of wine... :)
[19:18] <airtonix> adamramadhan, then you need to learn how to use windows 7 properly
[19:18] <malikeye|123> imphasing, just ordered one last night
[19:18] <malikeye|123> just wondering if peoples have been having problems with this model
[19:18] <airtonix> adamramadhan, or move back to windows xp
[19:19] <malikeye|123> forums seem kinda clean
[19:19] <adamramadhan> airtonix: hahaha
[19:19] <brontoeee> Tux43, should get you version 1.1.2 of vlc
[19:19] <adamramadhan> airtonix: men i have used windows from windows7 i never use that xp thing
[19:19] <imphasing> malikeye|123: It works well, but there seems to be a suspend issue with 10.04. It could be due to the automatic partitioning being bad, since it makes a swap smaller than RAM, but that should only be an issue for hibernate.
[19:19] <adamramadhan> i got one free copy from my univeristy
[19:19] <airtonix> adamramadhan, i just setup 30 windows 7 computers to connect to and from a ubuntu server... it didn't take this long
[19:19] <hotstew> I have idea and I don't even know if it's possible
[19:19] <malikeye|123> imphasing, cool, I'll take a look into that
[19:20] <adamramadhan> anyway i just open my 3rd computer and its shares nicely
[19:20] <malikeye|123> my GF needs MS Word, so I gotta try to see why she "needs" it and try to get her to OO
[19:20] <brontoeee> airtonix, samba or ssh or ...?
[19:20] <malikeye|123> cause I really don't wanna be running windows on a small laptop like that
[19:20] <airtonix> brontoeee, obviously samba.
[19:20] <imphasing> malikeye|123: It seems like the version previous to lucid works perfectly.
[19:20] <adamramadhan> maybe there is holywar between windows and ubuntus these days
[19:20] <airtonix> adamramadhan, what makes you think that ?
[19:20] <batshwa> aeon-ltd, i ran update-manager and marked the distribution upgrade packages, libavahi_core and autoconf, after which the system froze for a few minutes while "processing man triggers" -- something seems to be wrong with the man(-)db processes, what do you think?
[19:20] <adamramadhan> just guessing.
[19:20] <adamramadhan> :|
[19:20] <daedaluz> malikeye|123: install Wine 1.2, install Word, be happy
[19:21] <airtonix> adamramadhan, by the way did you bother to try sharing a folder from ubuntu and try connecting to it from windows ?
[19:21] <malikeye|123> Office 2k7 is supposedly buggy daedaluz
[19:21] <Besogon> adamramadhan, OK. I tell you. Did you install system-confog-samba package? If you do then this program, open settings
[19:21] <aeon-ltd> batshwa: try reinstalling mandb and its dependencies it may help
[19:21] <malikeye|123> which I'm looking into now as well
[19:21] <soul9> hello
[19:21] <airtonix> adamramadhan, make a folder on the ubuntu desktop, right click it, select sharing, share it with guest permissions...
[19:21] <adamramadhan> becouse i need to get my backup files
[19:21] <malikeye|123> buggy with wine that is :P
[19:21] <daedaluz> malikeye|123: not in 1.2
[19:21] <manu24531> ok so i made a usb stick bootable ubuntu instalation but still i am getting only a black screen with a cursor blinking so it wasnt a problem of the way i burned the cds
[19:21] <soul9> please, can anyone tellm e how i can boot into recovery mode with / mounted read-only?
[19:21] <malikeye|123> hmm, I'll look again then...
[19:22] <hotstew> but it would be pretty rad if you could create your own version of an Ubuntu CD where you choose programs via a web interface and it shows how much space is left and stuff
[19:22] <batshwa> aeon-ltd, i will do that now, thanks
[19:22] <adamramadhan> then drag my windows files from my windows pc to the folder that we have just make from samda ?
[19:22] <soul9> i'm trying recovery mode but / is mounted read-write and syslogd is started  so i can't remount it read-only
[19:22] <adamramadhan> its that correct ?
[19:22] <Besogon> adamramadhan, open securety tab and change autentifications to 'share'
[19:22] <Tux43> malikeye|123:  All you have to do is go to tools then options then go to load/save and select general then select always save as select microsoft office 2007
[19:22]  * cossier is away: Ara estic ocupat
[19:22] <imphasing> hotstew: That would be badass.
