[12:21] <Guest57288> 03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller (rev 01)
[12:21] <xskydevilx> How do I upgrade from Maverick to Natty using the CD?
[12:21] <AFD> cddavis: I'm on 10.10
[12:21] <jrib> !upgrade | xskydevilx
[12:21] <jrib> xskydevilx: you must use the alternate cd for that
[12:21] <AFD> cdavis: I'm on 10.10
[12:21] <celthunder> Kingsy101: i'm doing too many things at once atm ignore me
[12:21] <KM0201> Guest57288: ok... what have you done to try to get it to work?
[12:22] <AFD> cdavis: Here is my output (I posted on askubuntu with no joy) http://askubuntu.com/questions/36115/repo-errors-when-doing-apt-get-update
[12:22] <tjader> My numpad is misbehaving: it is sending weird key combinations instead of the expected ones
[12:23] <ikonia> AFD: look at the errors, it's complaining about your external repos
[12:23] <stix> jrib, thank you it worked :)
[12:23] <tjader> It only happens after I log into X, VTs and GDM work fine
[12:23] <ikonia> AFD: you've got a ton of external repos in there that are nothing to do with official ubuntu repos
[12:23] <KM0201> Guest57288: what have you done to get that to work?
[12:24] <AFD> ikonia: there are external repos yes, but the maverick/main Sources are getting 404 errors too
[12:24] <Guest57288> KM0201: I wouldnt really know tbh, ive been around on forums and wiki pages trying to sort it out, driver compiling and stuff.
[12:24] <ikonia> AFD: then your interenet connection / dns is not working
[12:24] <cdavis> AFD: remove the repo for nilarimongard and then apt-get update
[12:25] <KM0201> Guest57288: answer your PM
[12:25] <tjader> Everything looks fine on gnome-keyboard-properties
[12:25] <AFD> cdavis: I'll give that a go now - thanks

[12:36] <Vishal_> anyway to revert my 11.04 upgrade back to 10.10??
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> champ__: try: sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> Vishal_: reinstall maverick
[12:37] <tasslehoff> hm. I don't like that shotwell started creating a library from the Pictures folder even before I had told where I wanted it to look..
[12:37] <champ__> ActionParsnip:gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg is already the newest version.
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> tasslehoff: the first dialogue had a tick box to add pictures from $HOME/Pictures   you must have missed that
[12:38] <pauru> Ubuntu has become really crappy you know?
[12:38] <tasslehoff> ActionParsnip: Could be. I'll delete the config dir and start over
[12:38] <pauru> Man i miss the old distros
[12:39] <Vishal_> it's becoming more like windows and mac... using up alot of resources..
[12:39] <ActionParsnip> pauru: don't use it then, there are plenty of linux based distros around to choose from
[12:39] <ActionParsnip> Vishal_: use LXDE instead of gnome, uses very little then
[12:39] <jatt> slackware is still around
[12:39] <Vishal_> i'll check it out action.
[12:39] <sipior> Tyred: yes, but what's the question. i mean, what qualifies as "slow speeds", what have you tried to fix the problem, &cet. "i'm having problems" doesn't give us much to go on, i'm afraid.
[12:40] <ActionParsnip> could also try BSD
[12:40] <Vishal_> i need gui for exam week. shiet...
[12:40] <Vishal_> i shouldn't have upgraded yet...
[12:40] <andai> pauru why
[12:40] <sipior> Tyred: also, what wifi chipset are you using?
[12:41] <Vishal_> something to do with my video settings... got an issue with loading up gnome properly.
[12:41] <ActionParsnip> Vishal_: you fixed something which wasnt broken
[12:41] <ActionParsnip> Vishal_: tried a clean install?
[12:41] <tasslehoff> ActionParsnip: starting it again, it begins "updating library", though I haven't added any pictures. it doesn't show any pictures either, so I`m not sure what it is doing :)
[12:41] <m13> OK, made oops on Ubuntu 11.4. I was playing with Compiz_config_manager to see if i could enable the cube.  Now the top of windows have gone, the left bar and super button don't work.
[12:41] <wolf__> how can i start cam on pidgin
[12:41] <pauru> ActionParsnip, you can't deny that its getting really crappy compared to the old ubuntu distros
[12:41] <m13> What do i need to do to get functions back :(
[12:41] <Vishal_> ActionParsnip i upgraded from 10.10... i don't wanna just clean install.. I got data on here.
[12:42] <Vishal_> i'm trying to make that my last resort.
[12:42] <wolf__> how can i start cam on pidgin
[12:42] <Tyred> sipior: Alright, fair enough. I have an TP-LINK Wireless N Card, Currently is having issues. And Atheros AR5008
[12:42] <ActionParsnip> Vishal_: then use your backups...
[12:42] <andai> pauru: define crappy :p
[12:42] <hint> tv
[12:42] <Garry> can anyone help me with converting media avi2mp3
[12:42] <ActionParsnip> Vishal_: if you use a seperate home partition its easier
[12:42] <Vishal_> if only i configured those...
[12:42] <pauru> i will w8
[12:43] <m13> a

[12:43] <Vishal_> ActionParsnip u mean put a new clean install on a separate partition?
[12:43] <naike> can anyone help me with 11.04?
[12:43] <Lcawte> Hi, I'm in the process of upgrading to 11.04, but my PC crashed near the end of the installing new packages section, and I try to boot back in, but I just get flahing lights on my keyboard, how can I complete teh upgrade or fix it?
[12:43] <sipior> Tyred: which version of ubuntu are you running, by the way?
[12:43] <m13> naike: what have you done?
[12:43] <chandru_in> I have all permissions enabled on a file for all users. Yet when I try to cat the file as another user, it says 'permission denied'.
[12:43] <eik3_de> I'm using the chromium-daily PPA and since the latest update (13.0.752.0) chromium can't connect to SSL sites with self-signed certificates anymore. When I click "proceed anyway" nothing happens. Any clues?
[12:43] <ActionParsnip> Vishal_: no the same, wipe clean and reinstall, then restore backups
[12:43] <naike> m13 I get the error: Unable to install GRUBB in dev-sda when installation is almost complete
[12:44] <Tyred> sipior: It is not operating like it should be. Limited to a max of 25KB/s at max. I am running 11.04

[12:44] <m13> naike: not my bag..

[12:45] <naike> Anyone else know the solutionf or this error: Unable to install GRUBB in dev-sda
[12:45] <Lcawte> Anyone?
[12:45] <naike> lcawte we ened to know what caused the error
[12:45] <Vishal_> ActionParsnip i'll try what you're saying... i have no backups setup though...
[12:45] <Lcawte> naike: and how can I tell you that?
[12:45] <Vishal_> ActionParsnip does ubuntu have a backup process in the installation?
[12:45] <Crazy> hello everyone
[12:45] <sipior> Tyred: perhaps this is useful: http://www.qbie.com/?p=431
[12:46] <naike> no idea lol :s are there any logs or something i never used ubuntu for more than 10 mins
[12:46] <sipior> Tyred: looks like a more recent driver might solve the problem for you.
[12:46] <Crazy> my chrome can't open video
[12:46] <naike> i hope you backed up your system, upgrades come with risks
[12:46] <champ__> ActionParsnip:it says gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg is already the newest version.
[12:46] <Vishal_> naike :D I wish I was more responsible.
[12:46] <Vishal_> lol

[12:47] <ActionParsnip> champ__: you said earlier, and I saw earlier
[12:47] <zvacet> naike: read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling from LiveCD and see if it helps
[12:47] <Tyred> sipior: Yea, was thinking of same. I have tried disabling power management incase that was effecting it but unfortunately no dice...
[12:47] <thien> I create a launcher for a shell script file. How to make it run silently - without the box "Do you want to run..." (Run in Terminal/ Display/ Cancel/Run)
[12:47] <pauru> More and more people are having problems with the 3 latest ubuntu releases, and i am one of those. i have seen so many bugs in these last releases that i felt like i would jump out of the window xD
[12:47] <naike> zvacet: thanks
[12:47] <Vishal_> Lcawte, u and I are on the same boat!
[12:47] <champ__> ActionParsnip:sorry
[12:47] <bullgard4> How does MetaCity change if I assert in gconf-editor: apps->metacity->general->compositing_manager? (I did read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compositing)
[12:48] <Lcawte> Hi, I'm in the process of upgrading to 11.04, but my PC crashed near the end of the installing new packages section, and I try to boot back in, but I just get flahing lights on my keyboard, how can I complete teh upgrade or fix it? Syslog: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/602225/
[12:48] <Vishal_> I bet there have been a ton of graphics related issues yea? With the whole unity thing and docky crap.
[12:49] <sipior> Tyred: hopefully that page will have the drivers you need to get up and running at decent network speeds.
[12:49] <biffsharp> yup sure has been alot of probs
[12:49] <pauru> I really prefere the old ones like i.ibex and seems like i will change distro again. i loved ubuntu and i still love it but it gets really crappy
[12:49] <Tyred> sipior: Yea, just read it hehe... Was just about to attempt that after researching it myself, Thanks
[12:49] <Vishal_> pauru what distro u gonna try?
[12:49] <Dr_Willis> thien:  make sure your script is executable, and has a proper #!/bin/bash (or whatever is needed) line at the start?
[12:49] <antihero> What are the primary mirror sites for the UK?
[12:50] <Lcawte> Hi, I'm in the process of upgrading to 11.04, but my PC crashed near the end of the installing new packages section, and I try to boot back in, but I just get flahing lights on my keyboard, how can I complete teh upgrade or fix it? Syslog: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/602225/
[12:50] <antihero> gb.archive or gb.releases?
[12:50] <ActionParsnip> pauru: what is your issue with it?
[12:50] <naike> zvacet: the ubuntu installer already performs those commands, I don't think that is the problem
[12:50] <Dr_Willis> Lcawte:  flashikg caps lock/numpad light? thats not a good sign. Does a live cd work in the system?
[12:50] <franciel> Hi
[12:50] <pauru> Right now i have problems with my usb drives
[12:51] <ActionParsnip> pauru: have you logged a bug?
[12:51] <franciel> how i can reinstall the default profileof unity?
[12:51] <pauru> when i plug in any external storage USB when i want to remove it i press safely remove but after a while the window pops up again and i have to remove it again in order to stop working, why? does anyone know what is happening?
[12:51] <thien> Dr_Willis: it has #!/bin/sh and executable
[12:51] <Lcawte> Dr_Willis: scroll lock and caps lock, yes, I'm running the latest live CD I have (9.10) at the moment
[12:51] <GeorgeJ> Hello, folks. I've just updated to 11.04 and kinda dislike Unity. I've installed gnome-shell, but now I'm having an issue with .ICEauthority, I have both chowned the file and chmodded it to 777. Still getting the error, what should I do next?
[12:51] <franciel> !unity
[12:51] <jjlee>  I just reinstalled my OS.  I'm using same home dir, OS release (ubuntu maverick), hardware -- only change is the disk I booted from.  Old install: kaffeine works fine, flashplayer-nonfree (Adobe Flash ns plugin) works fine.  New install: no sound from kaffeine, nor flashplayer-nonfree.  On new install, aplay -Dplughw:1,0 random.wav works.  On the old install, I believe I didn't need the -D argument.  On the new install, apl
[12:51] <jjlee> ay hangs without that argument.
[12:51] <naike> i have my hdd partitioned in 3 primary partitions, and I want to install ubuntu on the unallocated space left
[12:51] <Dr_Willis> thien:  instead of a launcher you could just make a soft link to it perhaps.
[12:51] <naike> but i get this Unable to install GRUBB in dev-sda
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> pauru: have you logged a bug?
[12:52] <jjlee> So why no sound from kaffeine / flash player?  Where should I be looking?
[12:52] <pauru> ActionParsnip, You mean if i have reported a bug?
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> pauru: same thing, but have you?
[12:52] <Lcawte> Dr_Willis: Any ideas then?
[12:53] <thien> Dr_Willis: i make a link, but it show that box, too
[12:53] <champ__> ActionParsnip:any help?
[12:53] <jcmarini> my burner will burn cds but not dvds?
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> champ__: dude, seriously. I have no further advice. Can't you take a hint?
[12:53] <champ__> ActionParsnip:thank u
[12:53] <naike> How does WUBI work? does it install ubuntu like if i would use a live cd or does it somehow install it as a simulation actually in windows or something?
[12:54] <ActionParsnip> champ__: did't you pick that up at all when I wasn't replying to you??
[12:54] <jjlee> jcmarini: what are you doing to try to burn DVDs?  What happened when you did that?
[12:54] <pauru> ActionParsnip, nope
[12:54] <Dr_Willis> thien:  sounds like more security stuff they put in.. sort of annoying.
[12:54] <champ__> ActionParsnip:slow learner
[12:54] <Dr_Willis> thien:  testing it with differnt extensions now.
[12:54] <Lcawte> Hi, I'm in the process of upgrading to 11.04, but my PC crashed near the end of the installing new packages section, and I try to boot back in, but I just get flahing lights on my keyboard, how can I complete teh upgrade or fix it? Syslog: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/602225/ (Its scroll log and caps lock flashin)
[12:54] <Crazy> can anyone help me??
[12:54] <ActionParsnip> pauru: then how do you expect the developers to know there is an issue if you haven't told them?
[12:54] <GeorgeJ> I'm having an issue with .ICEauthority, when logging into the gnome-shell it says it cannot update it. I've both chowned it to myself and chmodded it to 777. still nothing
[12:55] <thien> Dr_Willis: how?
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> Lcawte:  if a live cd works. I would suggest backing up your impiorntant stuff and doing a clean install.
[12:55] <Crazy> my chrome can't open video
[12:55] <Lcawte> Dr_Willis: seriously? Is there not another way?
[12:55] <Crazy> who knows why??
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> thien:  testing with script.sh vs script  and so on..  wonder if it does it with more then just bash scripts
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> Lcawte:  its going to be very hard to tell what got messed up and take a lot of time.. and perhaps 40 min to do a reinstall..
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> pauru: if people don't report bugs then things don't get fixed
[12:56] <Dr_Willis> Lcawte:  the keyboard leds flashing is the kernel not loading, or some major crash going on.
[12:56] <rach0> Crazy, open a chrome tab and type about:plugins. See if the flash plugin is located and loaded
[12:56] <Lcawte> Dr_Willis: There is now way I can back it up, I have the one disk, and I'm not messing with partitions and have LAMP running... is there not a way I can get the upgrader to finish?
[12:57] <Flippo_> Hi ! After adding a user with useradd, is there a way to create the default folder ~/.kde or ~/.gnome ?
[12:57] <jjlee> Lcawte: you don't have a backup already?
[12:57] <Dr_Willis> Lcawte:  its going to be very hard to tell what needs upgraded now. You could try chrooting into the installed system and reruning the upgrade commands. but i wouldent put much faith in that working.
[12:57] <Lcawte> jjlee: not of my stuff or anything on the server, no
[12:58] <jjlee> Lcawte: that's unfortunate
[12:58] <Crazy> rach0: it seems have nothing
[12:58] <Dr_Willis> Lcawte:  You should of made backups befor you even started.
[12:58] <ActionParsnip> Flippo_: when they log in it will be made
[12:59] <Flippo_> I want to do it before they log in ActionParsnip  :p
[12:59] <pauru> ActionParsnip, Thats true, but why i haden't ha d these problems with other distros?
[12:59] <Crazy> rach0: it is blank
[12:59] <jcmarini> jjlee: braseo and gnome burner give message; no media when i put blank dvd in
[12:59] <Dr_Willis> Lcawte:  You could try live cd and chroot in, and rerun update manager.  but ive no idea if that can work.
[12:59] <Crazy> rach0: how did it happen?
[12:59] <Lcawte> Dr_Willis: I don't have the disk space or the knowledge to play around with partitions, I would backup if I could.
[13:00] <pauru> Anyway, i'll change because i need a realtime kernel so ubuntu won't do for me anyway
[13:00] <jjlee> Lcawte: get that knowledge
[13:00] <Dr_Willis> Lcawte:  not like its really hard to plug in a extranal usb hard drive and copy imporntant files over.. thats about all the backup i do.. or use the UbuntuOne stuff for a few things.
[13:00] <graunjalj> hello , im goingo to do a home server and i like to know opinions , who is better debian or ubuntu server ?
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> graunjalj:  totally depends on what the server is doing. I imagine both will do most of what you need fine.
[13:01] <pauru> I will always love it as it was the distro that started my Linux Journey :)

[13:01] <Lcawte> Dr_Willis: Not everyone has money to spare on the latest gadgets, and Ubuntu One is no where near big enough quota
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> Lcawte:  now you got some tough decisions ahead.
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> USB hd is a latest gadget? heh..
[13:02] <m_> !list
[13:02] <graunjalj> okey , tx Dr_Willis
[13:02] <rach0> Crazy, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree and then "sudo cp /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins/
[13:02] <zvacet> joakim_: disable all third party repos before upgrade
[13:02] <rach0> Crazy, then restart Chromium
[13:02] <jjlee> Lcawte: do you have actual data on there (databases, files), or just configuration?
[13:02] <Crazy> rach0: ok,let me have a try
[13:02] <Lcawte> jjlee: on my disk? Databases, files and configuration
[13:03] <Lcawte> Dr_Willis: I have chrooted, now what command do you reckon
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> Lcawte:  whatever commands the update-manager needed.. i rarely use updates. i do clean installs mostly
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> !upgrade
[13:04] <jcmarini> jjlee: do some blank dvds just not get recognised because of some reason in manufacture?
[13:04] <pauru> joakim, if you want to post outputs of a terminal etc it would be  a good idea to use pastebin.com
[13:04] <ActionParsnip> rach0: could symlink instead, saves space ;)
[13:04] <madPJKfan> hi - have a bug in Empathy - won't let me add new contacts - this is a known bug, there doesn't seem to be a fix - just wondering if anyone knows how to manually add a contact - been trawling thru directories, can't seem to find a config file for this stuff...
[13:04] <joakim_> zvacet: thanks :)
[13:05] <jjlee> Lcawte: sounds like you have access to your files?  Back them up now.
[13:05] <zvacet> joakim_:np
[13:05] <shomon> hi, where can I get pdf2swf? on ubuntu 10.10 that is
[13:05] <vak> How to get Eclipse and its icon pinned to Launcher in Ubuntu 11 Unity?
[13:05] <shomon> is it in a package?
[13:06] <Lcawte> jjlee: I can't, I don't have the storage space or the knowledge of safely playing with partitions, I've already said
[13:06] <jjlee> Lcawte: no playing with partitions is needed.  Just back up *your* data -- not the whole OS
[13:06] <ActionParsnip> vak: run it, when it appears in the bar, right click it and select 'keep in launcher'
[13:06] <Dr_Willis> vak:  ive seen that asked by a few other people in here. Not seen a good answer. Perhaps check/ask on the http://askubuntu.com site.
[13:07] <Dr_Willis> I was thinking eclipse had issues with that. because of how it had a lauincher that launxched other scripts.. or somthing liek that. :)
[13:07] <jjlee> Lcawte: if you don't have *any* other storage (CD-R?), get a gmail account, tar it up, and mail it to yourself, or something
[13:07] <Lcawte> jjlee: do you expect me to go through and grab all the config files, my photos, my databases and everything? I don't have the space to do that
[13:08] <vak> ActionParsnip: No, it doesn't work any well -- 1. after the logoff-login it disappears. 2. I can't assign the correct icon (the question mark is shown instead)
[13:08] <vak> Dr_Willis: Thanks
[13:08] <c4pt> hi i was wondering if someone could help me with compiz fusion desktop effects with ubuntu natty 11.04 ive tried to use a workaround from a few different sites but i am still stuck with the problem of compiz not working right by either crashing or not working properly (i am currently using ubuntu classic instead of unity)
[13:08] <naike> Unable to install GRUBB in dev-sda  help me cant install 11.04
[13:08] <Dr_Willis> vak:  searching tha site now.. not seeing an answer.  You may want to post the question.
[13:08] <jjlee> Lcawte: If *you* don't expect yourself to do that, you're likely to eventually lose all of those things
[13:08] <GeorgeJ> Unity is bad.
[13:08] <c4pt> GeorgeJ, lol yeah
[13:08] <Dr_Willis> GeorgeJ:  demand a refund.
[13:09]  * Dr_Willis wonders if we need a #ubuntu-complaints channel.
[13:09] <pauru> Lcawte, You have to get a big external drive, this thing will save you many times and its a must
[13:09] <GeorgeJ> I'm not making a complaint, just a remark.
[13:09] <ojii> how do I change the language of my login screen?
[13:09] <blackbit> Lcawte: Thats not good. We are talking about an ubuntu problem I guess, but make your first priority to backup your data as IF your hardware should fail for whatever reason, your data would be lost anyway. This applies to Windows, to Linux and to every other Os.
[13:09] <bazhang> GeorgeJ, any support issues?
[13:10] <abhinav_singh> is there any charting tool for ubuntu which read the excel files and chart time..openoffice chart interface is not good as compared to mac office and windows
[13:10] <Dr_Willis> Hard drives - i find - are the weakest part of the hardware  these days.   They seem to get worse every year.. but they are getting much more denser and compelx i guess.. and cheaper.
[13:10] <vak> Dr_Willis: http://askubuntu.com/questions/35625/how-do-i-make-unity-remember-which-applications-are-in-the-launcher
[13:10] <duanedesign> 5~5/8
[13:10] <dd214> is there a way in 11.04 to disable Unity?  It appears to be causing problems with my VMWare Workstation
[13:10] <ojii> dd214, yes
[13:10] <GeorgeJ> Not related to Unity, no. Unity works just fine
[13:10] <Dr_Willis> vak:  it does work with otehr apps? just not Eclipse?
[13:10] <ojii> dd214, on login you can select whether to boot into unity or plain old gnome
[13:10] <pauru> ojii go to system/Administration/language  support
[13:11] <Lcawte> blackbit: I am planning to additional drives to start backing stuff up when I get some money in, but I can't do that yet
[13:11] <GeorgeJ> I've had some problems installing gnome-shell, but I think I've fixed it now
[13:11] <ojii> pauru, I did, but the language i chose there is not the one showing up on login
[13:11] <dd214> ojii,  As of today, that menu at the bottom of the login screen is no longer available to me
[13:11] <c4pt> can anyone point me somewhere , where i can get compiz fusion working properly with ubuntu classic on 11.04 ?
[13:11] <m4k> how do I connect with windows pc with its name from ubuntu
[13:11] <ojii> pauru, my language after login is English (as it should be), but in login it's Japanese
[13:12] <ojii> dd214, oh, you can change the default in the login screen settings though
[13:12] <ramshot> Heya, 11.04 seems great but I'm flipping out because I can't find where to change the shift-alt-up shortcut, which is basically "expo for current workspace only"
[13:12] <Dr_Willis> c4pt:  on the login screen. i thought ther ewas a 'classic' and 'classic without effects' (or was it with effects?)  You do have the proper 3d drivers installed?
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> m4k: can you expand on "connect"
[13:12] <ramshot> Anyone know where I can change it, if anywhere?
[13:12] <Dr_Willis> ramshot:  it would be a setting in the CCSM tool.
[13:12] <Dr_Willis> !ccsm
[13:12] <Crazy> rach0: it didn't work...
[13:12] <vak> Dr_Willis: with applications that are installed with Ubuntu it works fine.
[13:12] <dd214> ojii, once I've logged in, where can I disable Unity?
[13:12] <ramshot> Dr_Willis: Yeah, I have that, but I can't find it anywhere. I can only find the super+w one under the expo plugin, but that does expo for all apps.
[13:12] <pauru> ojii there is a small box which says Apply system wide, did you push that? xD
[13:12] <champ__> running ubuntu 10.10 with restricted extras amd medi ubuntu win32codec installed . problem is i cannot paly videos from apple .com
[13:12] <jcmarini> why is a blank dvd not showing on desktop but cd is ok?
[13:12] <c4pt> Dr_Willis, yes i am using ubuntu classic (the one with effects) and the nvidia binary driver from nvidia (with the module recompiled for the current 11.04 kernel)
[13:13] <hamnegga> you need to install the plugins packages for compiz
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> dd214: log in to gnome classic and it won't load
[13:13] <Dr_Willis> vak:  So you may want to post a eclipse specifc question. I think its how eclipse sets up its env. and launches thats teh issue.
[13:13] <vak> Dr_Willis: in contrast, Eclipse was just a unpack-and-go java application
[13:13] <c4pt> Dr_Willis, but when i enable compiz it doesnt run properly or it crashes
[13:13] <GeorgeJ> Oh, I'm still having problems with my .ICEauthority file after installing the gnome-shell. I've chowned it to myself and also chmodded it to 777. It still complains that the file cannot be updated. Deleting it does not work either. What could I do next?
[13:13] <hamnegga> anyone here use pyrit with the latest available kernel?
[13:13] <m4k> ActionParsnip: actually My  SVN server is on windows machine I'm not able to checkout with pc name, and the network is using DHCP
[13:13] <dd214> ActionParsnip how do I do that?
[13:13] <Crazy> rach0: it says my shockwave flash has collapse
[13:13] <c4pt> Dr_Willis, or i get a skewed desktop
[13:13] <Dr_Willis> c4pt:  interesting. Im using nvidia drivers from the repos. I had the compiz stuff with no changes needed I think.
[13:14] <zvacet> dd214: under sessionchoose ubunut classic
[13:14] <ActionParsnip> dd214: login screen, click your username then select gnome classic frmo drop down
[13:14] <smartux> any software that mimics a marker board?
[13:14] <hamnegga> Dr_Willis, man up and use the real nvidia drivers

[13:14] <ShawnRisk> I am using 11.04 and there are a few adjustments I want to make but can't figure out how.  First how do I remove the dock on the left side, and leave just which windows are open?
[13:14] <ActionParsnip> smartux: gpaint maybe
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> hamnegga:  i dont need to for my 6150SE in this box..
[13:14] <hamnegga> download mplayer plugin for firefox ShawnRisk
[13:14] <ActionParsnip> ShawnRisk: log off and log into gnome classic
[13:14] <c4pt> Dr_Willis, did you install 11.04 clean or did you run a dist-upgrade from update-manager -d ?
[13:14] <dd214> I guess no one read where I stated that menu "Does Not" display from my login screen
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> c4pt:  i almost always do clean installs.
[13:15] <dd214> is there an alternative to Disabling Unity "Other than the login screen"?
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> c4pt:  so these are clean
[13:15] <c4pt> Dr_Willis, this is on a dist-upgrade (-d)
[13:15] <blackbit> dd214, first selet a user
[13:15] <rach0> Crazy, does it loads other plugins?
[13:15] <blackbit> dd214: then menu should appear, as long as the password box appear
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> dd214:  start a differnt window manager via editing your .dmrc perhaps. :)
[13:15] <c4pt> Dr_Willis, on the alpha 3 compiz was working
[13:15] <sata> how to install ati 5770 dribers in ubuntu 11.0.4
[13:15] <sata> ?
[13:15] <dd214> blackbit, thnx will verify
[13:15] <zvacet> dd2
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> c4pt:  i even do clean reinstalls from beta. Just to keep things cleaner.
[13:15] <c4pt> Dr_Willis, i reinstalled to 10.10 and now 11.04 final came out and i ran dist-upgrade compiz broke after the install
[13:15] <champ__> running ubuntu 10.10 with restricted extras amd medi ubuntu win32codec installed . problem is i cannot play videos from apple .com
[13:15] <blackbit> dd214: It will work ;)
[13:16] <c4pt> Dr_Willis, any suggestions? :/
[13:16] <sata> about:startpage]
[13:16] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: I can't do this with the current one?
[13:16] <sata> ?
[13:16] <zvacet> dd214: so you have no choice on login screen
[13:16] <sata> the driver is not installing
[13:16] <sata> any help
[13:16] <sata> ?
[13:16] <Dr_Willis> c4pt:  not really. Ive had no issues with the drivers. or compiz here.
[13:16] <hamnegga> c4pt did compiz really break or did you not have a startup item for it anymore, like compiz.real --replace
[13:16] <blackbit> zvacet, the menu in wich you can choose gnome or unity appear only when you select a user from the list...
[13:17] <rach0> Crazy, open a terminal and type -> chromium-browser --enable-plugins
[13:17] <c4pt> hamnegga, like i said compiz broke even with the startup item i made compiz --replace & in startup
[13:17] <hamnegga> strange, even with driver workingn still
[13:17] <Azize> Hello, witch package is necessary to install to enable personal file sharing?
[13:17] <ActionParsnip> Azize: samba
[13:18] <c4pt> hamnegga, i tried pulling all the compiz packages out and reinstalling them i get a skewed desktop or it panics or i get strange effects that its not supposed to do (abnormal activity from it that is a pita)
[13:18] <gaurav_help> pen drive is getting disconnect when i put in my system ubuntu 10.10
[13:18] <zvacet> blackbit: ok but he is telling there is no such thing
[13:18] <blackbit> zvacet: wait for he to report back ;)
[13:18] <Dr_Willis> c4pt:  clarify what you mean by Skewed.
[13:18] <zvacet> blackbit: and that is strange
[13:18] <ojii> pauru, yep, several times
[13:18] <Azize> I already installed samba and smbfs packages, but chackbox still disabled.
[13:18] <c4pt> hamnegga, and i dont really feel like going back to ubuntu 10.10 (since downgrading means really a clean install) i rather keep moving forward instead of backwards
[13:19] <hamnegga> c4pt, I would try recompiling my driver manually, since you probably are using a different one with an updated kernel
[13:19] <champ__> running ubuntu 10.10 with restricted extras amd medi ubuntu win32codec installed . problem is i cannot play videos from apple .com
[13:19] <c4pt> Dr_Willis, like on terminal the top of the menu bar disappears and i cant move the window or it rips icons out of firefox making it a major pita to use
[13:19] <champ__> help
[13:19] <hamnegga> champ__ you were the one I meant to say download mplayer plugin for firefox
[13:19] <Flippo_> Hi ! After adding a user with useradd, is there a way to create the default folder ~/.kde or ~/.gnome (before they log in) ?
[13:19] <Crazy> rach0: i typed chromium-browser --enable-plugins in the terminal ,it opens another chrome windows
[13:20] <hamnegga> mkdri
[13:20] <pauru> ojii, damn...maybe its a bug then xD
[13:20] <hamnegga> mkdir I mean
[13:20] <rach0> Crazy, yes it does, now in the new window can you run flash videos?
[13:20] <ojii> pauru, also some shell commands (eg mysql/postgres) show Japanese UI
[13:20] <pauru> ojii thats cool xD
[13:21] <ojii> pauru, it is, and most of the time I don't mind
[13:21] <Crazy> rach0: sorry ,it can't ...
[13:21] <adzy> hello all
[13:21] <ojii> pauru, but when other people try to do shit on my machine they're usually a bit confused
[13:21] <zvacet> Flippo_:  I don't know what are you need it for because every user make his home folder
[13:21] <pauru> ojii nice ;)
[13:21] <bazhang> ojii, no cursing
[13:21] <c4pt> Dr_Willis, hamnegga i had it working for a moment a few hours ago when i made  a new user account but when i enabled composite and opengl in compizconfig-settings-manager it broke again
[13:21] <ojii> bazhang, oh, sorry
[13:21] <janolap1> Hi everybody, I have a problem with one of my ubuntu 8.04 server. Someone has done something (maybe she has delete a file) and now the server doesn't boot, showing the error : grub loading please wait error 15. And the server is configurated with LVM. I have booted with rescueCD but don't know what to do. Can you help me, please ?
[13:22] <ojii> pauru, I probably should just look at it as a security "feature" ;-)
[13:22] <Crazy> rach0: it also says the plugin of shackwave flash is collapse
[13:22] <pauru> ojii ;)
[13:22] <Dr_Willis> janolap1:  some user with sudo rights has accidently deleted some system files?, are you sure of this?
[13:22] <hamnegga> yeah, your just enabling a plugin that it can't handle c4pt, you need to find out how to clear your plugin selections or remove, purge your compiz packages and replace
[13:22] <GeorgeJ> I'm getting an error when trying to login, "Could not update ICEauthority file /home/gjiglau/.ICEauthority". How could I fix this?
[13:22] <chingwa> hey, can any one help me on how to download ubuntu packages
[13:23] <ojii> chingwa, what's the problem?
[13:23] <janolap1> Dr_Willis : I really don't know what the user with sudo did (and she's not here until thursday).
[13:23] <ojii> is there a way to change the shortcuts in the launcher? I won't ever need "view photos", so I'd like to replace it with something that is useful to me
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> GeorgeJ: run:   sudo chown gjiglau:gjiglau /home/gjiglau/.ICEauthority
[13:23] <zvacet> chingwa: you don't have internet on Ubuntu comp
[13:23] <GeorgeJ> janolap1: try checking out .bash_history in her home folder
[13:24] <adzy>  anyone know how to remote control my server? its only got windows 2008 and i want ubuntu server edition on it but i dont have a screen
[13:24] <lemorek> i try to upgrade ubuntu 10.10-11.04, and python2.7-minimal could not be upgraded because "E: pycompile:240: Requested versions are not installed". i only change maverick to natty in /etc/apt/sources.list
[13:24] <Crazy> rach0: now what can i do?
[13:24] <Dr_Willis> actually dosent sudo have some sort of logging feature to show all sudo-ran commands?
[13:24] <janolap1> GeorgeJ : I would like to, but I don't know how to mount lvm volume in rescue CD... I did lvm and lvdisplay
[13:24] <ikonia> lemorek: that's your problem then
[13:24] <milen8204> sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sda6 /home
[13:24] <milen8204> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda6,
[13:24] <milen8204>        missing codepage or helper program, or other error
[13:24] <milen8204>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[13:24] <milen8204>        dmesg | tail  or so
[13:24] <GeorgeJ> ActionParsnip: That doesn't solve the issue, nor did chmod 777, nor deleting the file. I should mention that I've just installed gnome-shell after upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04
[13:24] <FloodBot3> milen8204: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:24] <abhinav_singh> hello guys..hows the 11.04....did any one try?
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> lemorek: that's not how you upgrade
[13:24] <shomon> can I get pdf2swf on ubuntu 10.10 within an apt package?
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade | lemorek
[13:25] <ikonia> lemorek: that's not how you upgrade
[13:25] <bazhang> abhinav_singh, yes
[13:25] <Dr_Willis> adzy:  you can ssh into a server and controll it that way. or set up vnc/freenx/other things
[13:25] <ikonia> abhinav_singh: it's fine
[13:25] <smartux> is kde more powerful than gnome?
[13:25] <hamnegga> why does everyone insist on attempting to upgrade instead of reinstalling, your bound for trouble
[13:25] <ikonia> no
[13:25] <Dr_Willis> smartux:  more flexiable and configurable..
[13:25] <zvacet> lemorek: and you didn't update maverick before upgrade?
[13:25] <lemorek> ok, so i revert to maverick, and use the synaptic
[13:25] <bazhang> smartux, #ubuntu-offtopic to discuss
[13:25] <adzy> Dr_Willis, what do i need to ssh?
[13:25] <Dr_Willis> smartux:  also easier to get lost in. :)
[13:25] <c4pt> hamnegga, bbiab
[13:25] <abhinav_singh> bazhang ikonia are you using ubuntu for development purpose?
[13:25] <jcmarini> blank dvd not showing- but cd is-why?
[13:25] <Dr_Willis> adzy:  a ssh server. and know how - of how to use ssh.
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> smartux: no, its equally powerful
[13:25] <hamnegga> bbiab?
[13:25] <viks> udisks alternate in 9.04
[13:25] <MagePsycho> hi guys..
[13:26] <Dr_Willis> !ssh | adzy
[13:26] <MagePsycho> i am new to ubuntu
[13:26] <lemorek> hamnegga: because it is proper way of using OS
[13:26] <c4pt> hamnegga, cube and rotate cube are working but my open windows like xchat and terminal are missing the very top of the window like where you would grab with the mouse to move the window
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> lemorek: if you upgrade in a bad way you will get issues, there is a method to upgrading
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> shomon: is it not in the partner repo?
[13:26] <adzy> Dr_Willis, thanks doc ;)
[13:26] <lemorek> ActionParsnip: what method ?
[13:26] <shomon> sorry ActionParsnip I wouldn't know... I'm just looking at http://designbye.wordpress.com/2010/02/23/installing-swftools-and-pdf2swf-on-ubuntu-linux/
[13:26] <hamnegga> you need to enable window decoration plugin c4pt
[13:27] <shomon> I did sudo apt-get install swftools and it found nothing
[13:27] <c4pt> hamnegga, thanks
[13:27] <c4pt> hamnegga, now the top of the window is back but i cant physically move the windows around
[13:27] <MagePsycho> ubuntu official site?
[13:28] <bazhang> MagePsycho, www.ubuntu.com
[13:28] <janolap1> GeorgeJ : Can you help me to mount lvm to access files ?
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade | lemorek
[13:28] <hamnegga> c4pt think a little, move windows plugin maybe?
[13:28] <Dr_Willis> weird that all those plugins are disabled..
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> shomon: add the repo and you will be able to install it like any other app
[13:28] <MagePsycho> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download
[13:28] <chingwa> zvacent, I have internet. I fail to play mp3 files. When i try to search for some packages online, errors occur. What should I do?
[13:28] <MagePsycho> so i need to download from that link: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download
[13:28] <abhinav_singh> bazhang ikonia are you using ubuntu for development purpose?
[13:28] <GeorgeJ> janolap1: http://www.brandonhutchinson.com/Mounting_a_Linux_LVM_volume.html
[13:28] <MagePsycho> and make it bootable and install?
[13:28] <milen8204> a little help whit that: sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda6 /home
[13:28] <Azize> Is there any other package to be installed to enable personal file sharing. I installed samba and smbfs.
[13:28] <hamnegga> Yeah, I only noticed it in my last install (having to re-enable all the plugins in compiz)
[13:29] <milen8204> i cant mount it :(
[13:29] <MagePsycho> i am new to ubuntu so
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> MagePsycho:  you burn the iso to disk properly. and it will be bootable.
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> !burn
[13:29] <shomon> thanks ActionParsnip
[13:29] <janolap1> GeorgeJ : thank you ! I'll read it !
[13:29] <MagePsycho> thanks
[13:29] <milen8204> anyone can help ?
[13:29] <c4pt> hamnegga, :( ?
[13:29] <zvacet> chingwa: from ubunutu software center install ubuntu restricted extras
[13:29] <hamnegga> c4pt:  what?
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> milen8204:  any error messages?
[13:29] <MagePsycho> any pre-requisites for installing in Dell Studio 1569 ?
[13:29] <c4pt> hamnegga, selecting move on the window doesnt help either (not in plugins but actually right clicking and selecting move)
[13:30] <Dr_Willis> MagePsycho:  it sould work in most machines.. the cd is also a 'live cd' you can test befor you install
[13:30] <rpk> I can't seem to connect to application servers hosted on my machine from other machines, however, I can connect from my machine to other machines.  any ideas?  I can ping remotely to my machine though.
[13:30] <hamnegga> c4pt did you enable the move windows plugin?
[13:30] <c4pt> hamnegga, i see it
[13:30] <milen8204> Dr_Willis, yes wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda6, missing codepage or helper program, or other error
[13:30] <rpk> (worked on 10.10, broken when updated to 11.04)
[13:30] <c4pt> hamnegga, yes makes sense
[13:30] <milen8204> so on
[13:30] <c4pt> hamnegga, lol
[13:30] <GeorgeJ> janolap1: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/fedora-35/how-can-i-mount-lvm-partition-in-ubuntu-569507/ might also help
[13:30] <c4pt> hamnegga, thanx
[13:30] <Dr_Willis> milen8204:  thats the generic 'it failed' message
[13:30] <hamnegga> may need to also select resize window, etc.
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> rpk: what are you connecting to achieve? "connect" doesn't tell us much
[13:31] <milen8204> Dr_Willis, sudo fdisk -l : /dev/sda1   *           1        6687    53709824   83  Linux
[13:31] <milen8204> /dev/sda2            6687       60802   434674689    5  Extended

[13:31] <FloodBot3> milen8204: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:31] <c4pt> hamnegga, thank you
[13:31] <Dr_Willis> milen8204:  could be a bad/currupted filesystem also. fsck it perhaps.
[13:31] <c4pt> hamnegga, ill bbl or bbiab
[13:31] <rpk> ActionParsnip: trying to connect over java rmi, or to a weblogic application console (port 7001)
[13:31] <hamnegga> rpk, maybe you need to setup port forwarding on your router
[13:31] <c4pt> hamnegga, i appreciate it thank you!
[13:31] <hamnegga> no problem
[13:32] <milen8204> Dr_Willis, /dev/sda6            7781       60802   425885696   83  Linux
[13:32] <rpk> hamnegga: it worked on 10.10
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> rpk: can you telnet to the port from ubuntu? Can you ping the server system's IP?
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> milen8204:  try without the -t also.
[13:32] <milen8204> Dr_Willis,  ok
[13:32] <shomon> hmm ActionParsnip - sorry but what repository should I turn on? I'm in synaptic, trying to get swftools...
[13:32] <chingwa> ojii, I cant play videos and audio files
[13:32] <hamnegga> there are many different scenarios for that issue.  Are you trying a dns resolve?  Do you use dns services that need to be refreshed?  Maybe your public ip has changed, etc.
[13:32] <marel> I've upgraded to 11.04, however I don't like the main toolbar being on the left, is there any way to change back to the old toolbar ?
[13:32] <milen8204> Dr_Willis, i think I did it :D
[13:32] <rpk> Actionparsnip: I can ping the server machine, yes
[13:32] <c4pt> hamnegga, i knew compiz did desktop effects but i didnt realize it grabbed control of the entire desktop like that and if its a totally fresh config or a non working config; i didnt realize stuff like that had to be selected since i am used to installing enabling two or three things and usually leaving it the way it is
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> marel: log off and log in to gnome classic
[13:33] <bazhang> marel, choose classic at login window
[13:33] <hamnegga> maybe you need to chown your apache directory or whatever service your running
[13:33] <mikeatvillage> I have dual boot (xubuntu & lubuntu) and want to swap the default in Grub2. I have tried a couple of Grub managers but can't get them to make the change... any recommendations?
[13:33] <GeorgeJ> shomon: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SWFTools
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> rpk: can you telnet to the socket?
[13:33] <milen8204> Dr_Willis, Could not open location 'file:///home/millen'
[13:33] <shomon> thanks GeorgeJ
[13:33] <rpk> ActionParsnip: just a sec, trying to find a vm that has telnet installed
[13:33] <drMike> https://gist.github.com/951537
[13:33] <ojii> chingwa, locally? try `sudo apt-get install smplayer`
[13:33] <drMike> would line 7 work?
[13:34] <drMike> this is a 10.04 LTS issue
[13:34] <milen8204> Dr_Willis, if I reboot my PC may crash :D
[13:34] <ojii> chingwa, do no videos work or only some?
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> mikeatvillage: why do you have the OS installed twice, you can have lxde installed on xubuntu and choose lxde at login time
[13:34] <drMike> most solutions I see are suggesting http://blog.roberthallam.org/2010/06/sshd-not-running-at-startup/
[13:34] <drMike> start on filesystem and net-device-up IFACE=eth0
[13:34] <mikeatvillage> ActionParsnip: I want the 2 OS to be completely separate.
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> mikeatvillage: reasonable, ive seen folks do it, just wasnt sure you were aware :)
[13:35] <janolap1> GeorgeJ : I think she did a recursive rm... too bad !
[13:35] <gaurav_help> how i sniff usb traficc in ubuntu
[13:35] <bazhang> gaurav_help, usb traffic?
[13:35] <GeorgeJ> drMike: If you are having problems with SSH not starting at boot. Try checking if /etc/init.d/ssh is executable
[13:36] <mikeatvillage> ActionParsnip: I wasn't actually aware :-)  But, what I've done is what I need for the moment.
[13:36] <rpk> ActionParsnip: Can't telnet either
[13:36] <gaurav_help> bazhang, like usbmon
[13:36] <janolap1> GeorgesJ : There is nothing (or so few) in the system. Thank you for your help...
[13:37] <drMike> GeorgeJ:  this is a standard bug for 10.04 I think
[13:37] <GeorgeJ> janolap1: My suggestion would be to backup everything you have and do a complete reinstall
[13:37] <drMike> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/216847
[13:37] <GeorgeJ> drMike: SSH not starting? Doubtfull
[13:37] <drMike> see link :)
[13:37] <janolap1> GeorgesJ : I have to do this... but what a waste of time !
[13:38] <milen8204> Dr_Willis, noting happend
[13:38] <GeorgeJ> drMike: You could always listen on all interfaces and filter the interfaces you want out by using iptables
[13:39] <hamnegga> you could just have the interface you want setup correctly in interfaces and then update-rc.d for networking
[13:39] <drMike> hmm
[13:40] <rpk> oh, and ActionParsnip, its only remotely, I can connect fine to services on the same pc
[13:40] <Laurenceb> hi, im trying to get integrated webcam working on a lenovo thinkpad sl510
[13:40] <rpk> (from that pc)
[13:40] <Laurenceb> can anyone help?
[13:40] <GeorgeJ> Yes, you should have your interface in /etc/networking/interfaces. I'm not positive but it would be best to check
[13:41] <drMike> thanks
[13:42] <Laurenceb> GeogeJ: auto lo iface lo inet loopback
[13:42] <milen8204> Any one can help? I had preinstaled my ubuntu. And now I am trying to mount old /home folder, which was on different partition, to my new /home folder. What should I do?
[13:44] <ActionParsnip>  milen8204 I'll give you the line from my fstab for you to add
[13:44] <brontosaurusrex> how does dolhin differently behave when it comes to ssh locations than nautilus? what should i read to understand?
[13:44] <ActionParsnip> milen8204: UUID=43beb8fe-c819-4ec4-9909-c0cc658d7a9b /home           ext4    defaults,user_xattr        0       2
[13:44] <ActionParsnip> milen8204: the UUID will be different
[13:45] <GeorgeJ> milen8204: You could replace the UUID from ActionParsnip with the path to the partition you want mounted
[13:46] <m4k> I have my SVN server in windows server and the network runs on DHCP how I can checkout with pc name .... ubuntu is not able to connect with PC name
[13:47] <GeorgeJ> m4k: I think you need samba to resolve windows machine names
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> m4k: does the windows system have a firewall?
[13:47] <bullgard4> How does MetaCity change if I assert in gconf-editor: apps->metacity->general->compositing_manager? (I did read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compositing)
[13:47] <GeorgeJ> m4k: Do you have connectivity with the machine, does ping work?
[13:47] <m4k> ActionParsnip, no
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> m4k: I'd add a resove for the name in /etc/hosts so the name resolves to the ip
[13:47] <m4k> GeorgeJ, i can ping with ip but not machine name
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> m4k: the hots file will make it resolve
[13:48] <m4k> ActionParsnip, LAN is DHCP so ip changes every day
[13:48] <GeorgeJ> m4k: Either add a line in /etc/hosts to add an allias to that machine as ActionParsnip suggested or isntall samba.
[13:48] <milen8204> ActionParsnip, I dont understand much
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> m4k: a server on dhcp, weird
[13:49] <m4k> can install samba if that works
[13:50] <hatchetjack> I can no longer move programs in my task bar in 11.04
[13:50] <hatchetjack> any ideas what happened?
[13:50] <GeorgeJ> m4k: See http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages-3/nmbd.8.html
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> hatchetjack: it broke is my guess
[13:51] <drMike> how to check if a daemon is up?
[13:51] <rpk> ActionParsnip: I installed ssh, and can connect from windows into my ubuntu machine
[13:51] <m4k> ActionParsnip: yes will change it soon I just joined them
[13:51] <drMike> ps aux | grep mysqld ?
[13:51] <antihero> since upgrading to natty, I don't have an nvidia kernel module, and X11 will not start. Any ideas?
[13:51] <Drduck> Hello
[13:51] <milen8204> ActionParsnip, it is UUID unique for every device ?
[13:51] <drMike> hey Drduck :)
[13:51] <hatchetjack> I am getting use to something breaking when I upgrade ubuntu
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> milen8204: yes
[13:51]  * hatchetjack sighs
[13:51] <antihero> Changing the X11 Module to "nv" gets X running but I don' tthink it has hardware accelleration
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> milen8204: sudo blkid   will show you yours
[13:51] <drMike> aren't we too peas in a pod :)
[13:51] <drMike> *two
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> hatchetjack: ask a silly question....
[13:51] <drMike> lol
[13:51] <GeorgeJ> hatchetjack: That's ubuntu's new replacement shell called Unity
[13:52] <milen8204> ActionParsnip, It is the same for sta1, sta2 and others ?
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> antihero: remove the driver, reboot, install driver, reboot
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> milen8204: any storage device, yes
[13:52] <GeorgeJ> !unity
[13:53] <milen8204> ActionParsnip, I see it is the same for different partition :D thanks
[13:53] <drMike> GeorgeJ: btw
[13:53] <antihero> ActionParsnip: Will do.
[13:53] <drMike> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3899 2010-05-19 20:30 /etc/init.d/ssh

[13:55] <rpk> anyone else want to give it a go?  Have one ubuntu machine, one windows machine.  Can ssh / ping both ways.  Can't connect to server running on ubuntu machine from windows machine.  Server is fine when connecting from ubuntu to itself.
[13:55] <Drduck> I have a problem. I am on my touch so bare with grammar please. I just updated to the new version of ubuntu. My problem is that I am unable to get any sort of wifi connection. When I run my finger across the wifi button, it won't even turn on. Once again, sorry for the grammar.
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> Guest35861: running an irc client as root is REALLY bad idea
[13:55] <Crazy> my chrome 's plugin (shockwave flash) is collaspe
[13:55] <Crazy> can anyone help me
[13:55] <GeorgeJ> rpk: sudo netstat -anl
[13:55] <Guest35861> i'm on windows in fact atm, ActionParsnip .. my user account happens to be named "root" :)
[13:55] <antihero> dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-current followed by reboot seems to have done the trick
[13:56] <antihero> no unity though :S
[13:56] <enav> HELLO.... this is my work station  http://is.gd/I3Ncla , im using 2 video cards  to connect all those displays... ica can use them all together as a single virtual desktop and move windwos among them... but i CAN'T activate compiz effects .... no matter what i do compiz wont work.. .Suggestions?
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> Crazy: what is the output of:  lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep swf; dpkg -l | grep gnash
[13:56] <misse-> rpk: what kind of server?
[13:56] <GeorgeJ> drMike: Can you see any messages related to sshd in /var/log/messages?
[13:56] <rpk> misse-: Weblogic
[13:57] <drMike> one sec :)
[13:57] <misse-> dunno what that is. but "sudo netstat -anp | grep <port number>" and "sudo iptables -nvL" might help out rpk
[13:57] <Crazy> ActionParsnip: No LSB modules are available.

[13:57] <rpk>  GeorgeJ: http://pastebin.com/GMRmcQBJ
[13:58] <drMike> no messages
[13:58] <drMike> I had to reboot the vps container
[13:58] <drMike> well, Xen container
[13:58] <Crazy> ActionParsnip: Linux ubuntu 2.6.35-28-generic #50-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 18 19:00:26 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux
[13:58] <GeorgeJ> rpk: What port is your service listening at?
[13:58] <drMike> then the damn container was stuck
[13:58] <drMike> that's when I did sbin/shutdown -r now
[13:58] <rpk> weblogic http is at 7001
[13:58] <sss314> How do I check last-modified date with command line?
[13:58] <rpk> and the java rmi server should be available at 9099.
[13:58] <Fuchs> sss314: touch
[13:59] <Fuchs> sss314: or ls -l
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> Crazy: put the whole thing in a pastebin, use http://pastebin.com
[13:59] <ipgd> great :p
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> Crazy: when you make the paste, copy the url and paste it in here
[14:00] <sss314> Fuchs, thanks
[14:00] <misse-> rpk: looks like 7001 only listens on tcp6
[14:00] <Crazy> ActionParsnip: ok...did i type lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep swf; dpkg -l | grep gnash into terminal
[14:00] <GeorgeJ> rpk: The service on port 7001 is listening however the 9099 one is only listening on ipv6 localhost
[14:00] <ipgd> wow it seems all expert here .....
[14:01] <ipgd> greetings everyone
[14:01] <enav> What is the ubuntu bug report channel?
[14:01] <milen8204> ActionParsnip, what-for  I should write in fstab :  defaults,user_xattr, I just want to know\
[14:01] <rpk> GeorgeJ: not sure what to do with that...  problem is definitely in ubuntu, all of this worked 2 days ago before upgrading to 11.04
[14:01] <aLky> guy, my touchpad is not working properly - it moves the cursor to random places and randomly clicks/rightcliks (using acer aspire & ubuntu 11.04)
[14:02] <rpk> so where should I look to fix it?
[14:02] <GeorgeJ> rpk: If the service on port 9099 is running under a JVM, I recall there is a problem related to ipv6 sockets not listening on ipv4 aswell as configured
[14:02] <rpk> GeorgeJ: yeah, its running under a jvm.  Is this a new issue for 11.04?
[14:02] <driller_> anyone familiar with vsftpd working against a mysql database?
[14:03] <enav> driller_: that have no sense
[14:03] <GeorgeJ> rpk: I think the issue is related to this bug http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=560056
[14:03] <driller_> how come enav?
[14:03] <enav> driller_: vsftp is a FTIP client/server
[14:03] <driller_> well, mysql database - it reads the users from it (virtual users)
[14:04] <enav> FTP*
[14:04] <zepherin> Unity bricked my laptop
[14:04] <jillsmit> hello
[14:04] <GeorgeJ> rpk: If you search google for "bindv6only" you mght be able to find out more about your problem
[14:04] <No_one_at_all> unity ... unity...sounds familiar but I can't place it, zepherin.
[14:04] <jillsmit> where can i get manuals about zte ax226 4g modem usage under ubuntu 11.04?
[14:05] <rpk> GeorgeJ: hmm, I'm running the Oracle JVM, and it works on localhost though.  Was 7001 http bound to ipv6 only as well?
[14:05] <zepherin> hehehe, my laptop sucks too much to run it
[14:05] <jatt> [ 2613.617845] chrome[19759]: segfault at 74656ebe ip 06a16cad sp bfda70d8 error 4 in libgcflashplayer.so[6429000+b64000]
[14:05] <rpk> (and wtf, how is this an open bug)
[14:06] <jillsmit> where can i get manuals about zte ax226 4g modem usage under ubuntu 11.04?
[14:06] <zepherin> so time to download and install an older version and send a nasty gram to ubunut which will be sent to the email trash can
[14:06] <GeorgeJ> rpk: Ofcourse it works on localhosts, since the service on port 9099 is listening to the localhost ipv6 address only. The service on 7001 is listning on <IP_ADDRESS>:7001  aswell, yes
[14:07] <Artarian> LESSON OF THE DAY: Dont ever ever upgrade your ubuntu to 11.04
[14:07] <zepherin> agreed
[14:08] <Artarian> 11.04 is not the system we are used to use and love
[14:08] <Finn-> Gentlemen. I just updated to 11.04, and now as I boot and login, my desktop is not loading. I had this problem before, but solved it with the uninstallation of compiz. However, it is not installed, and the problem is back. Any ideas?
[14:08] <bullgard4> How does MetaCity change if I assert in gconf-editor: apps->metacity->general->compositing_manager? (I did read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compositing)
[14:08] <Artarian> that makes me mad because i had so many cool things set, now everything is messed graphics and menus and...
[14:08] <Artarian> pff nvm
[14:08] <GeorgeJ> Artarian: Ubuntu is perfectly awesome, just not Unity
[14:08] <rpk> GeorgeJ: ah ok, people in that bug were commenting it wasn't working in localhost either. And it does seem everything on 7001 is all tcp6 :/
[14:08] <Pici> Artarian: Feel free to pick Classic Ubuntu from the login screen.
[14:08] <Finn-> I only get the Ubuntu Desktop guide, bun none of the keyboard shortcuts work.
[14:08] <zepherin> is there a way in console without ther internet to disable unity?
[14:09] <zepherin> and bring up old gnome
[14:09] <Guest9190> kb ?
[14:09] <Pici> zepherin: Feel free to pick Classic Ubuntu from the login screen.
[14:09] <zepherin> can't
[14:09] <zepherin> no keyboard access in login screen
[14:09] <GeorgeJ> rpk: If netstat says tcp6 and listens to a ipv4 address that means thats a ipv6 socket with ipv4 fallback afaik
[14:09] <zepherin> or mouse
[14:09] <kellnola> zepherin, then you don't have it installed somehow
[14:09] <zepherin> I have to alt prtscreen RE
[14:10] <enav> wow the channel is a Unoity mess today
[14:10] <GeorgeJ> rpk: So a telnet/nc to 7001 from outside should work
[14:10] <GeorgeJ> zepherin: shift+alt+1
[14:10] <GeorgeJ> zepherin: ctrl+alt+1 sorry
[14:10] <kellnola> F1
[14:10] <rpk> GeorgeJ: ok, I'll try that.  I can definitely connect, but have no idea what to do from there
[14:10] <zepherin> georgeJ: hrmmm, give me a minute
[14:11] <GeorgeJ> rpk: You only telnet to test the connectivity not to issue actuall commands, unless you want to talk HTTP
[14:11] <rpk> GeorgeJ: ok, running telnet from windows loads an empty command shell
[14:11] <GeorgeJ> rpk: Telnetting to 9099 from outside will probably not work since the service is only listening on localhost, its quite simple
[14:12] <rpk> so it looks like it worked
[14:12] <zepherin> no response for ctrl alt 1
[14:12] <rpk> but I still can't open ip:7001 in an external browser
[14:12] <zepherin> just an error saying my hardware isn't good enough and to choose ubuntu classic
[14:12] <IdleOne> zepherin: ctrl - alt - F1
[14:12] <GeorgeJ> zepherin: Ctrl+Alt+ F1 sorry, yes
[14:12] <zepherin> still no response
[14:12] <Finn-> Ah, selecting "Gnome classic" seems to work. Now I just have to make sure that it selects it automatically the next time, or at least until Unity is fixed for me.
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> rpk: do you specify http (or https if it is secure)

[14:18] <GeorgeJ> For people having problems with Unity, you can switch to the gnome-classic shell. More info here: http://scottlinux.com/2011/03/05/ubuntu-11-04-change-from-unity-to-classic-gnome/
[14:18] <antihero> how do I re-enable the network manager applet
[14:19] <zepherin> georgej: how do I do that from terminal?
[14:19] <cxo> update-alternatives --config gcc, says error, no alternatives?
[14:19] <GeorgeJ> zepherin: Do what?
[14:19] <cxo> I need gcc-4.3 on 11.04
[14:19] <rpk> GeorgeJ: okay, I can hit my weblogic console, but rmi still isn't running on my ip, only:  tcp        0      0 <IP_ADDRESS>:9099            <IP_ADDRESS>:*               LISTEN      8362/java
[14:19] <cxo> (already installed, just need to get the alternatives switched)
[14:19] <zepherin> georgej: switch to classic gnome
[14:19] <zepherin> or hell just run classic gnome
[14:20] <antihero> In my aptitude list, network-manager-gnome is listed with "iB", how do I fix this
[14:20] <LjL> cxo: try --config cc
[14:20] <GeorgeJ> rpk: That means it is listening on all itnerfaces. Including outside ones
[14:20] <GeorgeJ> zepherin: Can you not access the gnome login screen?
[14:20] <zepherin> no
[14:20] <rpk> GeorgeJ: oh, but still no connection :(
[14:20] <GeorgeJ> paste netstat -nl please
[14:21] <cxo> LjL, it says there is only one alternative link group for cc
[14:21] <LjL> !info gcc
[14:21] <LjL> !info gcc-4.3
[14:21] <purvesh> can some one tell me is there any difference in alternate iso and normal desktop iso ?
[14:22] <LjL> cxo: i'm afraid gcc-4.3 is just not available in Natty
[14:22] <GeorgeJ> rpk: Paste netstat -nl please
[14:22] <LjL> !alternate | purvesh
[14:22] <cxo> But i installed it with apt-get?
[14:22] <rpk> GeorgeJ: http://pastebin.com/F4UR0uyh
[14:22] <LjL> cxo: what did you install, exactly? the package "gcc-4.3" does not exist
[14:22] <GeorgeJ> rpk: Thats an Unknown paste id
[14:23] <cxo> "gcc-4.3 is already the newest version."
[14:23] <LjL> cxo: did you add a PPA or something?
[14:23] <einseenai> guys, is there repository for classic gnome in 11.04? or is classic desktop entry from gdm menu the same that classic gnome? or it's just fallback?
[14:23] <cxo> Nope. Clean install from the desktop iso
[14:23] <rpk> GeorgeJ: http://pastebin.com/LUGSf5ay  ...not sure what happened to the first one
[14:23] <purvesh> LjL, so via that i can also install on some pc right ?
[14:23] <LjL> purvesh: what do you mean?
[14:23] <LjL> cxo: output of "apt-cache policy gcc-4.3" please
[14:24] <GeorgeJ> rpk: The machine should be accepting connections on both port 9099 and 7001 now
[14:24] <dejan_> help me plsafter update to ubuntu 11 I cant access emphaty settings
[14:24] <purvesh> LjL, if i install ubuntu via alternate cd on some hard disk then there will no any changes between normal setup and alternate cd setup ?
[14:24] <LjL> purvesh: the end result is the same, at least if you select "Ubuntu Desktop" on the alternate cd
[14:24] <dejan_> how to access emphaty settings in new update
[14:25] <rpk> GeorgeJ: hmm, let me redeploy on both the client and server with a new build and see if that randomly fixes something
[14:25] <LjL> purvesh: you might also want to consider using the "minimal" cd, which is only about 10 or 20 megs and downloads everything from the internet while installing
[14:25] <cxo> LjL, http://pastebin.com/a0mv1Ujy
[14:25] <rpk> Still not sure why it would work locally and not remotely though.
[14:25] <purvesh> LjL, only difference is this is text mode and normal cd have GUI mode right ?
[14:25] <LjL> purvesh: basically yes, which means the installer is also different
[14:26] <GeorgeJ> rpk: You should be able to establish a connection to port 9099. However you might get disconnected almost instantly when connecting with telnet
[14:26] <LjL> cxo: so you have it installed but it's not available, weird. maybe it was available in the CD you installed, did you install a beta ISO or the final? anyway does the command "gcc-4.3" work?
[14:26] <purvesh> LjL, but after all installation completed all the content are same like normal
[14:26] <LjL> purvesh: yes
[14:27] <purvesh> LjL, no minimal is not preferable in my case net speed slow or dis connect internet many times :(
[14:27] <cxo> LjL, downloaded release ISO from website, gcc-4.3 command works
[14:27] <LjL> cxo: --config cc doesn't really work for me either, i think you will just have to export CC=gcc-4.3 when compiling things
[14:28] <thien> how to make a windows show up, if i've click "hide" button. i use ubuntu 11.04. i can see no icon in the tray.
[14:28] <purvesh> LjL, Thank You for ur reply and support :)
[14:28] <LjL> welcome
[14:28] <cxo> I'm going to downgrade to 10.04. Dont want to mess with it
[14:29] <s0168656> hi, I just upgraded to ubuntu 11 but my wireless doesn't work anymore.. with ubuntu 10 it worked out of the box, first "lshw -C network" said my wireless was disabled, with "ifconfig wlan0 up" I enabled it (the wireless light on my laptop is also on) but no wireless :(
[14:29] <s0168656> anyone an idea what might be wrong?
[14:29] <korvax> irc.pl
[14:29] <s0168656> or how to downgrade?
[14:29] <remoteCTRL2> hi guys!
[14:29] <antihero> the network manager applet only shows up on one logged in user :S
[14:30] <s0168656> rfkill list all shows "soft blocked" for one wireless lan section
[14:30] <remoteCTRL2> i have just installed natty on a dell latitude d820 with an nvidia G72M [GeForce Go 7400] (rev a1) adapter, unfortunately i don't get a working driver here, always says driver activated but not in use...?
[14:30] <s0168656> (its maby a bit strange that there 're 2 wireless lan sections -- because i think there's only one wireless card

[14:35] <Giles> Hi, I am trying to get unity to work, here are the results of unity_support_test: http://pastebin.com/n8kXeP3a
[14:35] <Hoyt> hhow can i install gdm theme ?
[14:35] <Giles> However when I log in as a new user it says I don't have the hardware to support it.
[14:35] <Giles> And when I log in as myself, it reverts to the classic desktop.
[14:35] <antihero> How do I get the nm-applet to display for multiple users?
[14:35] <remoteCTRL2> where has the desktop effex dialog from appearance gone?
[14:36] <cxo> LjL, Looks I did go from Beta1 to release. My mistake
[14:37] <drMike> Cannot open your terminal '/dev/ttyp0' - please check.
[14:37] <drMike> crw-r--r-- 1 appuser tty  3,  0 May 25  2010 /dev/ttyp0
[14:37] <drMike> I changed it from that to 644 and root:root
[14:37] <drMike> any suggestions?
[14:37] <purvesh> LjL, one more thing bro can you tell me that ubuntu 11.04 Desktop edition is capable to work on intel P4 2.4ghz 1.5gb ram ? or i have to download netbook version ?
[14:38] <s0168656> "sudo iwlist wlan0 scan" shows a lot of networks but i can't connect to any of them with the network applet(;
[14:38] <bazhang> purvesh, there is not a netbook version for 11.04
[14:38] <purvesh> bazhang, ya just now i had seen its torrent link is broken
[14:38] <gnosis> for a 2yo toshiba laptop with 4gb of ram, would it be better to go with 32bit or 64bit ubuntu?  Does 64bit have more driver or application issues?
[14:39] <purvesh> bazhang, but ill try 10.04 netbook version if necessary
[14:39] <sipior> gnosis: 64-bit will be just fine for you.
[14:39] <vooze> gnosis, i run 64 no problem.. no driver problems or anything
[14:39] <vooze> it all works out of the box
[14:39] <sinistrad> I upgraded to Natty, and wine isn't working quite right. I asked in #winehq, and they told me not to run compiz. I read that Unity needs compiz to run, I'm not quite sure what to do. Any ideas?
[14:39] <remoteCTRL2> hello? desktop effects? any ideas where they went, please?
[14:39] <stimpie> sinistrad: log out and try using the 'classic' sesion
[14:40] <gnosis> alright, was concerned about driver problems with the older laptop.  installing for my 60yo father, so trying to make it as painless as possible
[14:40] <purvesh> LjL, you there ?
[14:40] <gnosis> thanks vooze and sipior
[14:40] <sinistrad> stimpie, Thanks! Will that be deprecated anytime soon?
[14:40] <stimpie> sinistrad: probably not
[14:41] <sinistrad> stimpie, Thanks. I'll try that out and see how it goes.
[14:42] <comeon> hi dudes, i have  been trying to install opencv on ubuntu 11.04, and there is error saying videodev.h is not found
[14:42] <elisa87> when I write the sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop command can I run other commands in the black window which apears?
[14:42] <comeon> instead there is videodev2.h
[14:42] <comeon> how can i make that work
[14:42] <H4x0rs> hi all
[14:42] <GeorgeJ> As a developer, whnat would you choose? Unity, Gnome3 or KDE?
[14:42] <Giles> what controls whether unity is enabled or not?
[14:42] <purvesh>  can some one tell me that ubuntu 11.04 Desktop edition is capable to work on intel P4   2.4ghz 1.5gb ram ?
[14:43] <GeorgeJ> Giles: Unity is not something you enable. You can choose to use it or not, at the login screen
[14:43] <lcb> purvesh, all
[14:43] <comeon> videodev.h is not there ?
[14:43] <mksystems-online> hello all
[14:43] <comeon> instead videodev2.h
[14:43] <Giles> GeorgeJ: okay, so I choose to use it at the login screen but It doesn't give me the unity desktop.
[14:44] <comeon> opencv is just not installing
[14:44] <purvesh> lcb, it will not hang my p4 right ?
[14:44] <allu2> Is it normal for ubuntu 10.10 to go black after selecting "Try Ubuntu"
[14:44] <lcb> purvesh, you have enough ram and good cpu
[14:44] <purvesh> lcb, so netbook iso is for what ?
[14:44] <velcroshooz> Giles, unity requires 3d, does your video card support it?
[14:44] <Giles> velcroshooz: http://pastebin.com/n8kXeP3a
[14:44] <purvesh> lcb, it is only for single core or what ?
[14:45] <Pici> comeon: There are a number of opencv packages in the repositories, is there a reason you have that you need to compile your own?
[14:45] <lcb> purvesh, what type of machine do you have?
[14:46] <velcroshooz> Giles, dunno why it wouldnt be working then. there were no additional drivers required or anything?
[14:46] <purvesh> lcb, i have 2 cpu one is Intel P4 2.4GHZ with 1.5GB ddr1 Ram, and other AMD Quad Core 64Bit with 2gb ddr2 ram
[14:46] <groundup> I am having problems upgrading packages: http://pastebin.com/XmnYnpaX
[14:47] <lcb> purvesh, download 11.04 desktop edition
[14:47] <purvesh> lcb, Thanx for suggestion :)
[14:47] <Pici> purvesh, lcb: There is not 11.04 netbook edition anymore anyway. They have been consolidated into one version.
[14:47] <Giles> velcroshooz: nope, I uninstalled nvidia-current, as a distro upgrade always seems to pull that in, but my machine doesn't have an nvidia card.
[14:47] <nic_k> #ubuntu-classroom
[14:48] <chtipowa> Hi please i need someone who know Nomachine NX Server, is there anyone here ?
[14:48] <remoteCTRL2> Pici: could you please tell me where the desktop evects vanished to?
[14:48] <remoteCTRL2> -v+f
[14:48] <Giles> remoteCTRL2: mine is gone too.
[14:48] <Pici> remoteCTRL2: Mine work fine.
[14:48] <dasfefg> hello i  dont like gnome 3 and unit
[14:48] <dasfefg> what alternativess
[14:48] <lcb> Pici, thanks, that's why i told to dld desktop...
[14:48] <Pici> dasfefg: Pick Classic ubuntu from the login screen.
[14:49] <Giles> remoteCTRL2: Press F2 and type compiz --replace
[14:49] <H4x0rs> dasfefg, Do you have shift or Caps on your keyboard?
[14:49] <remoteCTRL2> Pici: where are the settings? there is nothing in appearance anymore
[14:49] <purvesh> lcb, there one more thing if i have installed 11.04 64bit desktop version on my quad core 64bit cpu and now i want to put that hard disk to my p4 which is 32 bit cpu so it will work or not ?
[14:49] <Pici> remoteCTRL2: I had ccsm installed, made my changes from there. /shrug
[14:49] <Pici> purvesh: No. It will require a complete reinstall.
[14:50] <Giles> remoteCTRL2: that enables the desktop effects temporarily
[14:50] <dasfefg> hello i  dont like gnome 3 and unit
[14:50] <dasfefg> what alternativess
[14:50] <Giles> dasfefg: unity?
[14:51] <stimpie> dasfefg: gnome2, xfce, kde, e17
[14:51] <purvesh> Pici, ohk ...
[14:51] <remoteCTRL2> Giles: erm... that didnt work so well... ubuntu tried to fire up unity which just froze my dektop...?
[14:51] <H4x0rs> ?
[14:51] <grandpapriz> Good morning, I just upgraded Ubuntu 10 to 10.04 and now can not boot.  I get an error message "out of range", can it be fixed?
[14:51] <Giles> remoteCTRL2: oh thats one up for me, unity just doesn't work.
[14:51] <H4x0rs> grandpapriz, throw it.
[14:52] <Giles> remoteCTRL2: s/for/from/
[14:52] <bazhang> H4x0rs, pardon?
[14:52] <remoteCTRL2> Giles: well that could have to do with the fact that nvidia just doesn't work...
[14:52] <Giles> remoteCTRL2: do you have an nvidia card?
[14:52] <H4x0rs> grandpapriz, Do you have laptop?
[14:52] <leojkd81> ciao
[14:53] <grandpapriz> I  am on a laptop now, my problem is on the desktop, and thanks for the comeback
[14:53] <remoteCTRL2> Giles: in this device that i am currently attempting to fix there is an nvidia card, yes... VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G72M [GeForce Go 7400] (rev a1)
[14:53] <H4x0rs> grandpapriz, Crash the desktop and stay with laptop
[14:53] <lcb> purvesh, i don't think so. Besides, I think you don't get the performance benefits of running true 64bit code on the kernel.
[14:53] <bazhang> H4x0rs, thats not helpful
[14:54] <Giles> remoteCTRL2: dunno then, I had to remove nvidia-current to get 3d working (I don't have an nvidia card)
[14:54] <purvesh> lcb, so the whole data and software and Ubuntu OS will remain same and work perfectly?
[14:54] <grandpapriz> all was well untill I upgraded.....I dual boot the desck top
[14:54] <remoteCTRL2> Giles: whut??? :D
[14:55] <Giles> remoteCTRL2: a distro upgrade always pulls in the nvidia drivers for me for some reason..
[14:55] <lcb> purvesh, you can NOT move 64 to 32 software
[14:55] <grandpapriz> I do have nvidia drivers :-(
[14:55] <DrDuck> Hello, guys. I have a problem with the new release of ubuntu with my wifi connection. Before installing, my wifi was working just fine, but now I can't turn it on when I swipe my finger over the wifi button. I can swipe my finger over it to turn it on at boot up, but once I get to my login menu, my mouse wont move. Any insight into what my issue is would be great.
[14:55] <remoteCTRL2> Giles: jockey-gtk does NOT report on it's own that it found drivers like it usually does, but when i fire up jockey manually it says it has the 173 and the current [recommended] one, both of which produce the same output, ie. driver is activated but currently not in use
[14:55] <ojii> is there a way to replace the 'show photos' shortcut in the launcher with something that is useful for me?
[14:55] <purvesh> lcb, so my installed softwares will not work ?
[14:56] <H4x0rs> grandpapriz, that's helpful http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10740987&postcount=5
[14:56] <lcb> purvesh, you can backup your home dir and restore it. some .configs you might need to adapt to your machine
[14:56] <remoteCTRL2> Giles: although lsmod | grep nvidia say that it IS in use
[14:56] <Giles> remoteCTRL2: I check which hardware I have using lspci.
[14:57] <purvesh> lcb, k....
[14:57] <lcb> pushpop, in other words, only data should be backed up
[14:57] <smooke> hello!!!
[14:57] <remoteCTRL2> Pici: still, if your desktop effex do work you need to be able to en and disable them somewhere... do you happen to know where? because it is not in the appearance dialog anymore...?
[14:57] <grandpapriz> I would hate to have to re-install both Debian and Ubuntu..any help ideas?
[14:57] <remoteCTRL2> giles
[14:58] <Giles> remoteCTRL2:  no.
[14:58] <remoteCTRL2> Giles: so did i just a minute ago, i could also use lshw but i doubt that that will help me any further...
[14:58] <Giles> remoteCTRL2: nor do I know how to get unity working.
[14:58] <remoteCTRL2> gosh...
[14:58] <Giles> remoteCTRL2: I don't think I want unity.
[14:58] <remoteCTRL2> well 2-3 upgrade went well reecntla now its a total mess once again... rrrrrrrrrrrrr
[14:58] <BlaDe^> how can I resave all the files in a directory?
[14:58] <Giles> remoteCTRL2: but I would like desktop effects back.
[14:59] <BlaDe^> I've just done a mv dir2 dir --- and dirname(__FILE__) in php returns dir2, until I nano, and overwrite the file... Some weird bug.
[14:59] <remoteCTRL2> Giles: i couldnt tell; i haven't seen it yet :D
[14:59] <Giles> BlaDe^: ???
[14:59] <zepherin> bah I think I'm going to migrate to suse for a bit
[14:59] <BlaDe^> Giles ?
[14:59] <remoteCTRL2> Giles: well apparently not even the channel geniouses do currently know how to ...
[14:59] <Giles> remoteCTRL2: seems so.
[14:59] <remoteCTRL2> zepherin: i feel you dude...
[15:01] <Giles> BlaDe^: I think this must be because your php program is using an old file handle?
[15:01] <remoteCTRL2> Giles: one thing i do know for sure: i will NOT migrate my two institutes to natty, two computers, twice total havoc... this really s..........!!
[15:01] <MysticMuse> #miranda
[15:01] <grandpapriz> I guess I will try the Debien forums
[15:01] <grandpapriz> thanks anyway
[15:01] <BlaDe^> Giles no -- it's just a require ( dirname(__FILE__) . '/file');
[15:01]  * Giles is not a php hotshot
[15:02] <rchavik> hi, a quick question, to upgrade 10.10 to 11.04 via CD, i can only use the alternate iso file. is that correct?
[15:02] <a111> Is there a way to limit cpu load and memory used per user?
[15:02] <DrDuck> Would someone mind giving me some insight into why the new release has issues with wireless connections?
[15:02] <Giles> BlaDe^: I    ???'ed you though because i dont know what you mean by "how can I resave all the files in a directory?"
[15:02] <BlaDe^> Giles: i did find . -exec touch {} + ---- this has mostly fixed it
[15:02] <BlaDe^> I think it's possibly APC caching the old file

[15:02] <Giles> BlaDe^: yeah touch will update the timestamps.
[15:03] <FloodBot1> H4x0rs: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:03] <DrDuck> Also, I'm wondering if it's possible to go back a version. (10.04).
[15:03] <zepherin> rchavik: don't do it it's a trap
[15:03] <H4x0rs> ?
[15:03] <Giles> BlaDe^: but it does not "resave" the file, that thinking is just wrong.
[15:03] <BlaDe^> Giles I didn't say it did
[15:03] <kaiyin>  every time i open a file in midnight commander (inside xterm), i.e. reading a pdf file with evince, the application would feedback some info into xterm, and clobber the mc interface. Has anyone ever exprienced this?
[15:03] <bazhang> H4x0rs, dont paste that here
[15:04] <BlaDe^> resaving the files ALSO updates the access times
[15:04] <rchavik> zepherin, upgrade process not smooth ?
[15:04] <BlaDe^> which is what I needed to do, it appears
[15:04] <kaiyin> Very annoying. Otherwise i might make mc my main file manager.
[15:04] <Giles> BlaDe^: to resave the file you would have to save the same data over the old file
[15:04] <H4x0rs> bazhang, i did not paste, it's a command exec -o cal
[15:04] <BlaDe^> Giles - I know.
[15:04] <Giles> BlaDe^: that can't be what you mean.
[15:04] <bazhang> H4x0rs, this is the wrong place for it
[15:04] <BlaDe^> Giles why are you telling me what I mean?
[15:04] <zepherin> rchavik: My laptop broke because of it. So I have to reinstall
[15:05] <Giles> BlaDe^: Well is it what you mean?
[15:05] <zepherin> unity is not your friend
[15:05] <BlaDe^> Giles -- resaving the files was updating the access/last modified times.. APC seems to cache files by that. Resaving was fixing it, but what I needed to do was just touch all the files
[15:05] <BlaDe^> find . -exec touch {} +  fixed the issue
[15:05] <rchavik> zepherin, okay.. thanks for the heads-up! i will wait then.
[15:05] <clbr> am I right that it's not possible to get an bootable ubuntu live installer usb stick image without already having a working ubuntu installation (and the startup disk maker)?
[15:06] <Giles> BlaDe^: yes, but you are not "resaving" the file, you are just updating the timestamps of the file.
[15:06] <bazhang> clbr, unetbootin has windows version amongst others
[15:06] <BlaDe^> omg? are you reading what i'm saying/
[15:06] <BlaDe^> I'm fully aware what touch does, and what overwriting a file in nano does
[15:06] <velcroshooz> clbr, that would be wrong. there are other programs to copy the iso to the usb stick.
[15:06] <BlaDe^> please - stop talking. It's fixed and you aren't reading...
[15:06] <Giles> BlaDe^: good ;)
[15:06] <bazhang> clbr, unetbootin.sourceforge.net
[15:06] <lcb> "<zepherin> rchavik: My laptop broke because of it. So I have to reinstall" it doesn't mean it will happen to everyone...
[15:06] <clbr> bazhang: thanks, i'm trying
[15:07] <lcb> zepherin, how did it brake, anyway?
[15:07] <asmith> I have a vps, I'm trying to setup pptp on it. I need localip. by ifconfig, under eth0, I get my machine ip. I thought it must be something like 192.168...  should I enter my machine ip as localip?
[15:08] <zepherin> lcb: Can't get into computer can only get into terminal
[15:08] <zepherin> well can't bring up gui
[15:09] <zepherin> unity tells me my computer sucks too much to use it and that I need to use classic, and then locks up my keyboard and mouse so I can't choose classic
[15:09] <rchavik> lcb, yes.. but i can't spare my laptop now, i'll wait until my load cools down a bit..
[15:09] <lcb> zepherin, did you upgrade following instructions? was your system up-to-date and fixed? did you interrupt the upgrade proccess?
[15:09] <H4x0rs> bazhang, I feel you are looking carefully to my posts.
[15:09] <DrDuck> I'm sure I'm not the only one having wireless issues with the new version of Ubuntu, right?
[15:09] <bazhang> H4x0rs, ubuntu support issue?
[15:09] <velcroshooz> zepherin, you choose classic at the login screen, unity should not be running
[15:10] <zepherin> velcros: can't keyboard and mouse are frozen
[15:10] <velcroshooz> i see.
[15:10] <zepherin> I can't exit into terminal
[15:10] <H4x0rs> bazhang, Hhh , anything.
[15:10] <zepherin> lcb: system was up to date, problem has to do with intel integrated video card
[15:11] <bazhang> H4x0rs, chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[15:11] <zepherin> there is a fix but I can't get internet to do the fix
[15:11] <illsci> Hey is there anyway to fix the white screen of death with the latest upgrade?
[15:11] <H4x0rs> bazhang, I don't shit chat.
[15:11] <lcb> zepherin, rchavik, if upgrade was interrupted: try going to recovery (SHIFT | - select the 2nd kernel  option from the top = recovery mode | go to the end of the new menu and select "root prompt" and type ' sudo dpkg --configure -a ' see if that helps. In any case, do the same but go to the grub menu and run dpkg, grub and failsafeX (choose to use default drivers)
[15:12] <rchavik> lcb, thanks for the pointer.. will take note.
[15:12] <carandraug> I want to report a bug but I don't know to which package I should. What's the application that organizes the windows? The one that "reads" the "Always on top" option of windows (in GNOME). Is it metacity? I'm still using 10.04
[15:13] <Arowana> hi everyone
[15:13] <lcb> rchavik, good luck with that.
[15:13] <Arowana> history
[15:13] <edbian> carandraug: If you have effects on it's compiz.  If not it's metacity.
[15:13] <lcb> Arowana, i prefer mathematics :o
[15:13] <carandraug> edbian, I don't have. So it should be metacity. Thank you
[15:13] <rchavik> lcb, now downloading the alternate iso so hopefully i can do it in the weekends..
[15:14] <edbian> carandraug: Careful!  They are on by default.  To be extra sure look at gnome-system-monitor or ps -e
[15:14] <lcb> rchavik, for fresh install?
[15:14] <H4x0rs> bazhang, Bin laden is dead.
[15:14] <rchavik> lcb, no, upgrade from 10.10 -> 11.04
[15:14] <bazhang> !ot > H4x0rs
[15:14] <lcb> !info Bin Laden | H4x0rs
[15:15] <bazhang> lcb, stop that
[15:15] <lcb> gee
[15:15] <zepherin> shift doesn't do anything I can't get to recovery panel, is there a terminal command that I can use to do a recovery?
[15:15] <Ababab> Any ideas why I'm having this problem with irssi: when you type a long line and the time changes, the text is split into multiple lines
[15:15] <lcb> bazhang, please is a good word too
[15:16] <lcb> bazhang, no private pls, my wife don't like it.
[15:16] <edbian> zepherin: If you can boot to a terminal you don't need a recovery boot
[15:16] <zepherin> ok. but I can't get into my gui
[15:17] <edbian> zepherin: Can you explain in more detail?
[15:17] <edbian> zepherin: What can you boot to?  What happens when you try to boot the GUI normally?
[15:17] <zepherin> "It seams that you do not have the hardware required to run Unity. Please choose Ubuntu Classic at the login screen and you will be using the traditional environment."
[15:17] <edbian> zepherin: Do that.
[15:17] <zepherin> then my keyboard and mouse lock up
[15:17] <edbian> zepherin: Do you know how?
[15:18] <Giles> hmm, sudo apt-get install unity
[15:18] <zepherin> and I have to hop into terminal
[15:18] <ojii> does anyone here know how to *UN*install amazonmp3? `sudo apt-get remove amazonmp3 --purge` does not work, but /usr/bin/amazonmp3 is still there and the unity launcher finds it :(
[15:18] <carandraug> edbian, I did. metacity is running
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> zepherin: you need to install or configure your display drivers
[15:18] <k5673> Hello! Somebody have vmbuilder config file for ubuntu? i want to call vmbuilder with vmbuilder -c /path/to/config/file
[15:18] <edbian> Giles: He has the software.  Missing the software
[15:18] <zepherin> no internet
[15:18] <edbian> carandraug: :D  excellent
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> ojii: what is the output of:  dpkg -S amazonmp3
[15:18] <edbian> zepherin: How do you hop into terminal if your keyboard and mouse are frozen?
[15:18] <zepherin> I don't know how to do the internet through terminal
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> zepherin: what video chip do you use?
[15:19] <zepherin> edbian: alt prntscreen
[15:19] <zepherin> RE
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> zepherin: you can always log off then log into gnome classic which will run on anything
[15:19] <durrrrrrrrr> despite setting chrome as my default browser, firefox keeps opening when i click links
[15:19] <zepherin> actionparsnip: no I can't
[15:19] <masak> hi, Ubuntu user here. is this an appropriate channel to ask for help with installing the Perl module XML::LibXML on Ubuntu?
[15:19] <zepherin> intelxtreme2 integrated laptop
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> durrrrrrrrr: what app are you clicking the links in?
[15:20] <Arowana> hi masak
[15:20] <durrrrrrrrr> xchat, empathy, basically everything that isn't a browser
[15:20] <andrewd13> how do I get scripts to run on resume?
[15:20] <Giles> edbian: no, I didn't have unity installed, thats why it didn't work...
[15:20] <Arowana> use cpan command to add modules
[15:20] <zepherin> so what I need is a terminal command to allow me to run classic ubuntu
[15:20] <Arowana> check it out on google
[15:20] <masak> Arowana: I'm using cpanm, but the problem is the same regardless.
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> durrrrrrrrr: but in default apps you set it as chrome?
[15:20] <zepherin> google failed
[15:20] <Ababab> Ie. it does this: http://i.min.us/inx6ro.png . It has something to do with the terminal I think
[15:20] <andrewd13> /etc/pm/sleep.d and /etc/acpi/resume.d no longer working in natty?
[15:20] <edbian> Giles: I was talking about zepherin you're clearly talking about yourself!  Sorry :P
[15:20] <masak> Arowana: getting this error: "looking for -llibxml2... libxml2 not found"
[15:21] <edbian> zepherin: Log out.  Click your name, go to the bottom panel and change the session to Ubuntu Classic.  Type your password and log in.
[15:21] <Arowana> masak well I had to use it once only
[15:21] <ActionParsnip> zepherin: gnome-session-save --logout
[15:21] <masak> Arowana: I've already installed libxml2-dev through apt-get, so I'm surprised it doesn't find it.
[15:21] <durrrrrrrrr> ActionParsnip: well, there's the problem... i guess that setting can't be changed via chrome's options
[15:21] <Arowana> hmm
[15:21] <pseubodot> hi, I just upgraded a desktop running 10.10 to 11.04 and now I lost video. I know the machine boots (g15 driver kicks in and sets up the keyboard properly) but I cannot get network or a working display
[15:21] <Giles> edbian: yeah, no one else was able to help me, so I was explaining what I had wrong...I expected unity to be installed by default after the distro upgrade!
[15:21] <ActionParsnip> durrrrrrrrr: look in system -> prefs
[15:21] <H4x0rs> God Bless You Bin Laden
[15:21] <durrrrrrrrr> ActionParsnip: yeah i just fixed it, thank you
[15:21] <edbian> Giles: It should have been.  STrange
[15:21] <sipior> H4x0rs: enough.
[15:22] <_joey> two applications I need on linux: real player and soapcast
[15:22] <pseubodot> Is there a way I can force X to work minimally at boot?
[15:22] <_joey> what packages do I install?
[15:22] <pseubodot> also, I don't see the grub screen either, so cannot go into single user mode
[15:22] <jrib> pseubodot: what does "force X to work minimally" mean?
[15:22] <zepherin> action: warning unable to start: cannot open display
[15:22] <Arowana> masak: have u googled it?
[15:22] <masak> yes.
[15:22] <Arowana> and which ubuntu ur having
[15:22] <zepherin> edbian: I can't log out. no mouse or keyboard
[15:22] <sipior> masak: sorry, how did you install the perl module?
[15:23] <zepherin> I can only get into terminal
[15:23] <edbian> zepherin: Don't log in in the first place?
[15:23] <zepherin> it does it automatically
[15:23] <masak> sipior: I used 'cpanm', a minimal version of the cpan installer.
[15:23] <edbian> zepherin: Do you mean tty1?  Run this: sudo killall Xorg
[15:23] <Arowana> well perl was already there
[15:23] <masak> sipior: but the error is not in cpanm, but in the module dependencies.
[15:23] <Arowana> try cpan only
[15:23] <masak> ok.
[15:23] <sipior> masak: how about grabbing the module via the ubuntu repository?
[15:23] <zepherin> no processes found
[15:23] <Arowana> hmm havent tried that
[15:24] <Arowana> are u behind proxy or direct connection
[15:24] <pseubodot> jrib: the display is black, so given that the machine boots, I can't see it, and I have used both the onboard and the PCIe (ATI) card ports, and not seen anything
[15:24] <pseubodot> jrib: it seems to be configured for some display, just not one I can see, apparently
[15:24] <jinleileiking_> ?
[15:24] <sipior> masak: "sudo apt-get install libxml-libxml-perl"
[15:24] <edbian> zepherin: Does Xorg show up in ps -e ?
[15:24] <jrib> pseubodot: check /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[15:24] <Arowana> masak: wait le me google it again
[15:24] <masak> sipior: hm, but that module is only a means to an end. I really want Test::XML::Valid.
[15:25] <elisa871> How can I install "Nvidia Driver"????
[15:25] <pseubodot> jrib: can't get to a shell on the box, can't ssh into the box (network not working post-upgrade)
[15:25] <jrib> pseubodot: ctrl-alt-f1 does not work?
[15:25] <pseubodot> jrib: guess I would need a boot disk or something
[15:25] <masak> Arowana: thing is, I always get stuck on this step. generally, I go and ask the Perl people how to do this, but they're often not too sure how to do it on Ubuntu.
[15:25] <pseubodot> jrib: trying
[15:25] <masak> but libxml is almost always a pain to get working the first time.
[15:25] <alex_ivaylov> any ideas how to fix my touchpad random clicking on acer aspire?
[15:25] <zepherin> xorg does not show up
[15:26] <sipior> masak: is that not in libtest-xml-simple-perl?
[15:26] <dennda> Where do you deactivate the effect that you get if you press Meta+W?
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> alex_ivaylov: which model?
[15:26] <Arowana> hi sipior, well masak, maybe he has got a point
[15:26] <alex_ivaylov> aspire 5310
[15:26] <masak> sipior: no, but maybe that'll do. I'll try it.
[15:26] <pseubodot> jrib: screen goes green post-boot
[15:26] <zepherin> so format reinstal for me
[15:27] <zepherin> and a nasty gram for ubuntu
[15:27] <jrib> pseubodot: what did you do differently?  Wasn't it black before?
[15:27] <edbian> dennda: I have no idea what meta + W does for you but you configure it easily using CCSM.  It's a package (compizconfig-settings-manager)  I'm not sure on the placement of those hyphens
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> alex_ivaylov: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4309328
[15:28] <Arowana> masak: good luck with that
[15:28] <masak> thank you for your help, Arowana, sipior.
[15:28] <Arowana> and btw masak: are u using root user
[15:28] <Arowana> masak: welcome
[15:28] <masak> I'm using 'sudo', yes :)
[15:28] <pseubodot> jrib: ctrl+alt+f1 changed it
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> alex_ivaylov: scratch that, just add these boot options: i8042.reset i8042.nomux
[15:28] <Arowana> y not use su
[15:28] <pseubodot> jrib: didn't stay green long tho
[15:28] <dennda> edbian: Yes, i have that, but i have no idea what the effect is called
[15:29] <edbian> dennda: What's it look like?
[15:29] <alex_ivaylov> ActionParsnip, do you do that in grub?
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> Arowana: because the root account is disabled so su will fail
[15:29] <zexe> whois zexe
[15:29] <Arowana> nope
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> alex_ivaylov: yes add it as a boot option and it seems to help according to: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6577886

[15:30] <ActionParsnip> Arowana: ok, what is the password for root considering I have never set the password and the account is disabled
[15:30] <masak> Arowana: no. in fact, I thought in Ubuntu there was no user 'root', just sudo.
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> Arowana: I am ready to type
[15:30] <masak> Arowana: but maybe I'm wrong on that count.
[15:30] <Arowana> hmm gr8

[15:30] <ActionParsnip> Arowana: i tried my password which is the only account on my system and it didn't work
[15:31] <sipior> masak: the user exists, but the login is disabled by default.
[15:31] <masak> ah.
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> Arowana: in Ubuntu there is NO root password, the account is DISABLED. It doesn't work
[15:31] <qbert> test
[15:31] <Arowana> Action: you can go to terminal issue a sudo passwd  it will ask auth. pass of 1st user created while installing and then new root password

[15:31] <noes1s> Hello, any guru here knows where the nm-applet stores/saves the networks? (I want to delete that file every time i reboot to stop autoconnects)
[15:31] <Arowana> Action try it
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> !noroot | Arowana
[15:31] <Pici> !root | Arowana masak
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> Arowana: I am fully aware of HOW it's not advised nor supported nor necessary
[15:32] <bsodmike> right
[15:32] <bsodmike> this is the wierdness I'm having with PTY
[15:32] <masak> Pici: :)
[15:32] <bsodmike> when I ssh
[15:32] <bsodmike> I connect to ttyp0, if I do echo foo > /dev/ttyp0 it'll echo 'foo' back to my session
[15:32] <rumpe1> noes1s, why not just disable autoconnect for the networks via the gui?
[15:32] <Arowana> thanks guys
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> Arowana: sticking to sudo gives control of whom can use admin access as they need adding to the group which gives sudo
[15:32] <bsodmike> but when I do screen it'll say No PTYs left
[15:33] <constl> Isn't there any functionality like expose in the new Unity desktop ? (or any plugin mechanism...)
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> Arowana: the ubuntu community advocates sudo and it is setup as such by Linux users who I am very sure know a lot more than you, think about it.
[15:33] <siddhantchd> can anyone help ???
[15:33] <zzecool> Arowana,  just a small tip if you want to use for a long time in console the root acc = sudo -s so you dont actually need to type sudo every time
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> Arowana: you can set it on your own system if you want but enabling the account is not default, which is why su doesn't work
[15:34] <Arowana> I accept... thank you will keep in mind
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> Arowana: you can also achieve the same root console with: sudo -i
[15:34] <eternicode> jnettop is giving me this output: http://dpaste.com/538049/ what's up with that, and how can I find out more?  I checked out netstat, but it didn't show anything bound to <IP_ADDRESS>:0.  This "connection" has been doing 100-300Kbps for about 5min (dropped to 20-40 in the last minute, though)
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> Arowana: this keeps the root account securely disabled
[15:34] <alex_ivaylov> ActionParsnip, man, I dont know how to thank you! this fixed it!
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> alex_ivaylov: np bro :)
[15:34] <bsodmike> sudo -i doesn't use your env's settings
[15:34] <Arowana> will follow now on
[15:34] <noes1s> rumpe1 thanks for reading my lines, well, i was doing it using the GUI, but i would like to do it from command line, or editing the file. I use a lot of networks everyday and my list keeps increasing bigger and bigger on every city i visit, its a pain to manually edit 50+ networks while you travel
[15:34] <Arowana> I just hate to type sudo each n every time
[15:34] <zzecool> sudo -s is the way
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> alex_ivaylov: those options are great for pesky touchpads, i8024.nomux=1 works a lot of the time on Vaio laptops ;)
[15:35] <Arowana> thanks zzecool:
[15:35] <zzecool> np
[15:35] <abrakadabrax> hi all
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> Arowana: use:  sudo -i   and it will be just like you 'su'
[15:35] <alex_ivaylov> what does nomux mean?
[15:36] <bugo> one philosophical question.  Cannot this be done simultaneously? It could download packets with no dependencies first and then install them while downloading others.

When I restored it using system rescue CD, I have to do a "grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/fcroot --recheck --no-floppy /dev/virtual12/root" where /mnt/fcroot is where the lvm is mounted and /dev/virtual12/root is the / of my server. But...
[15:56] <janolap1> ...grub says : "/dev/virtual12/../dm-0 does not have any corresponding DOS drive". Any ideas ?

[16:05] <ActionParsnip> Adamantus: then thats probably why you can't resize, the partition hasn't been unmounted properly
[16:05] <sipior> bsodmike: at this point, you might want to contact your provider, and explain the problem. it's possible they changed something...
[16:06] <Adamantus> ActionParsnip: I did try unmount in gparted but not available. Also won't boot due to failed install of Linux Mint, now trying to install Ubuntu instead.
[16:06] <ActionParsnip> GuitarMan517: remove the gnome3 ppa then you will need to tell the OS to reinstall a TONNE of packages. I'd reinstall, the resulting OS will be more stable
[16:06] <ActionParsnip> Adamantus: they are pretty much the same so trying them both is pointless, one is based on the other
[16:07] <GuitarMan517> ActionParsnip: I removed the Gnome3 ppa...how is the best way to reinstall? I am a bit of a noob..and don't want to loose any of my data.

[16:11] <KM0201> milamber: you cannot partition a drive, that is mounted.. so in order to partition it, you're going to have to boot a live cd or usb (so the drive is not mounted) and partition it from there

[16:12] <ravi> constl: thanks
[16:12] <KM0201> juboba: why on earth would you want to use wubi?..
[16:12] <GuitarMan517> Dcite: Ok, could it result in loss?
[16:12] <KM0201> milamber: ok.. whyd idn't you create a separate home, while installing?
[16:12] <ActionParsnip> juboba: grab wubi.exe and put the MD5 tested 10.10 ISO in the same folder

[16:13] <KM0201> milamber: oh ok.
[16:13] <liminal_> hello
[16:13] <GuitarMan517> Dcite: Ok, I'll give it a go
[16:13] <Dcite> GuitarMan517: Best case, original packages pulled in and restored, worst case, GUI dies data stays intact
[16:14] <KM0201> so you ahve a separate /home partition (from 10.10)... but its not being used for 11.04(it has its own home).. is that right?
[16:14] <TimothyA> How do I stop ubuntu trigger seizures in people?

[16:14] <milen8204> KM0201, ok thanks for the help
[16:14] <TimothyA> I would like to have Ubuntu stop triggering a seizure on anyone who comes within viewing range -_-
