[18:12] <texas319> i still dont see how i flooded when i am reading website?
[18:12] <texas319> chatzilla is just running
[18:13] <halsafar> google supergrub, download, burn (or stick on usb key) and make sure it can boot
[18:13] <Pici> texas319: You didn't. It was accidentally directed at you.
[18:13] <mickster04> KaiForce: #ubuntu-server but if it is generic to both, you're better off here
[18:13] <texas319> ohhhh
[18:13] <texas319> okay
[18:13] <texas319> i just saw that
[18:13] <cmc2001> Hello. Does anyone know if i can make ubuntu 10.01 netbook version to start hiding the upper bar while using programs or always?
[18:13] <stephan> ok thank you halsafar
[18:13] <mickster04> cmc2001: you men the titlebar?
[18:13] <vng> Is hibernate function of ubuntu the same as the one of windows?
[18:13] <KaiForce> ok, i think this is.  i've added a second nic, removing the first, now the nic is identified as eth1 instead of eth0.  how do I re-assign it to eth0?  (no GUI)
[18:13] <cmc2001> mickster04: yea
[18:13] <Badger> hi ppl. I need to install PHP 5.2.x instead of 5.3.x I get by normal apt-get, how do I do that?
[18:14] <mickster04> cmc2001: not sure...
[18:14] <vhann> KaiForce: Search Google, there's a file you need to modify
[18:14] <cmc2001> mickster04: Well i know i can make something to make it hide. it is GNU and all that, but i really would like not to...
[18:14] <mickster04> cmc2001: try compiz config, and undecorate the windows, use compiz-config-settings-manager
[18:15] <vng> oh..no
[18:15] <cmc2001> mickster04: Ok. ill try. Thx :)
[18:15] <sipior> KaiForce: you'll need to modify the relevant udev rule, found in /etc/udev/rules.d
[18:15] <rafaelsoaresbr> !acroread > me
[18:15] <halsafar> When UBuntu 9.04 loads it does not seem to honor my xorg.conf I added (since xorg.conf does not exist by default anymore it appears)
[18:16] <SiXke> Hi there
[18:16] <realcoolguy> Badger: you could always go grab the source for that version of PHP, and compile it that way.  You'll have to meet any dependencies as well however.  Usually what I end up doing when I need a specific version, both newer and older than what the repos have.
[18:16] <SiXke> Im new in linux, and im trying to copy a directory from an usb to the disk
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> Yo yo yo
[18:16] <SiXke> any1 can walk me trough it?
[18:17] <KaiForce> vhann - sipior:  thanks for the lead, looks like a winner.
[18:17] <mickster04> SiXke: right-click, copy?
[18:17] <CaptainTrek> SiXke: what mickster04 said
[18:17] <SiXke> commandline :)
[18:17] <vhann> SiXke: man cp
[18:17] <Badger> realcoolguy: hmm, that's the "long way" to go, I rather not do that - last resort thou
[18:17] <geekphreak> SiXke:  sudo cp -fr /path/usb/disk/folder  /home/name/folder
[18:17] <mickster04> SiXke: cp
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> Sixke: is the usb partition mounted and can you see the folder?
[18:17] <CaptainTrek> ActionParsnip: he's using CLI
[18:17] <SiXke> where are programs installed by default?
[18:17] <SiXke> for example xbmc
[18:18] <Quicken2K> you need to have sudo in front for all operations?
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> Captaintrek: it still needs to be mounted, even with cli
[18:18] <SiXke> its mounted
[18:18] <realcoolguy> Badger: You may also find .deb packages, which are easier than compiling.
[18:18] <mickster04> Quicken2K: no
[18:18] <SiXke> im trying to find out where to copy it to
[18:18] <jenia> hello everyone
[18:18] <vhann> SiXke: Whether you want the job done without knowing the inner workings: use the GUI. Or, you want to be more efficient: then learn to read manpages
[18:18] <geekphreak> ActionParsnip: not really/always
[18:18] <Badger> realcoolguy:  any idea whee I should look for them?
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> Sixke: programs are installed all over, there isn't one folder they go to
[18:18] <Pici> SiXke: Packages are not installed to just one directory.  What are you looking for? dpkg -L packagename   can show you where files are installed to.
[18:18] <SiXke> i had some basic linux in school, but already forgot most of it
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> Geekphreak: to copy a folder from one block device to another both must be mounted
[18:19] <geekphreak> ActionParsnip: agreed sir
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> Sixke: cp -a /path/to/folder /path/to/destination
[18:19] <gothenburg> hmm
[18:19] <gothenburg> everything turned white
[18:19] <SiXke> ok, now just have to find out where the xbmc folder is
[18:20] <SiXke> dpkg tels me /usr/share
[18:20] <SiXke> i geuss thats not correct
[18:20] <mickster04> SiXke: like we said, chances are you'll need to install stff over several folders
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> sixke: look in your xbmc config as to what folder the data needs to reside in. I believe you can config it using the gui
[18:20] <rafaelsoaresbr> !xrand > me
[18:20] <Pici> !msgthebot > rafaelsoaresbr
[18:20] <rafaelsoaresbr> !xrandr > me
[18:20] <SiXke> is there a way to search for the 'skin' folder?
[18:21] <mickster04> rafaelsoaresbr: there isnt a user called "me"
[18:21] <serggy> hi
[18:21] <ActionParsnip> Sixke: lib files will go in /usr/lib the binary will go in /usr/bin and several images may go in /usr/share/pixmaps. Linux employs a reusability idea so libs from one app can be used by many
[18:21] <Pici> mickster04: that actually will send a pm to the user that does the command.
[18:21] <serggy> anyone who knows about ubuntu mobin remix
[18:21] <rafaelsoaresbr> mickster04, but it works! :)
[18:22] <Pici> rafaelsoaresbr: Please /msg ubottu    in the future though
[18:22] <SiXke> ok found it, it seems to be in /usr/share, weird logic :)
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> Sixke: to you maybe ;)
[18:22] <geekphreak> SiXke:  good luck sir
[18:23] <SiXke> my files are in media/USBSTICK
[18:23] <SiXke> can I use : cp /media/USBSTICK
[18:23] <SiXke> or does there need to be something before /media
[18:23] <serggy> my netbook can not work adobe flash player and firefox does not work
[18:23] <mickster04> SiXke: /media/USBSTICK/
[18:23] <rafaelsoaresbr> Pici, as you wish :)
[18:23] <ActionParsnip> Sixke: cp needs a destination
[18:23] <mickster04> SiXke: that will copy all the contents across to wherever
[18:24] <iceroot> mickster04: that will to nothing
[18:24] <iceroot> mickster04: destination and -r missing
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> Sixke: you will also need to use sudo as users do not have write access to /usr/share (if that is the destination)
[18:24] <SiXke> no such file /media/USBSTICK/*.*
[18:24] <mickster04> iceroot: i was just talking about the from part, he knows about destination and the ir command
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> Sixke: linux is very case sensitive
[18:25] <SiXke> it is USBSTICK in caps
[18:25] <mickster04> SiXke: use tab complete
[18:25] <darory> please i need no one can download file wmv from my server? by htaccess or any thing else
[18:26] <geekphreak> SiXke: just a tip for you, if you need to learn / know command type man command >> example man cp :)
[18:26] <SiXke> is *.* not allowed?
[18:26] <ActionParsnip> Sixke: no need, the folder copy will copy the contents also
[18:27] <geekphreak> darory: sorry did not get question
[18:27] <idlemind> i was following this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=311158 guide to compile the latest kernel on ubuntu 8.04 lts ... i get an error that looks like this http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/0dNxgWej ... thoughts?
[18:27] <tyler_d1> I am trying to see a certificate of a secure website from a terminal? how is this done using wget or links or elinks please?
[18:27] <SiXke> i tels me ommiting directory xxxxx
[18:28] <ActionParsnip> Sixke: you can also use just * as it will cover all files, *.* isn't necessary
[18:28] <running_rabbit07> Does IP Tables automatically keep logs or does it have to be commanded to do so?
[18:28] <taree> * by itself only modifies previus char
[18:28] <taree> so by itself it means nothing
[18:28] <taree> in extended regular expressions that is
[18:29] <Pici> taree: This isn't regular expressions, this is bash's normal wildcard blobs
[18:29] <darory> geekphreak: i make web site that users can see vedios online and can't see the target of the vdeio file, i need no one can download it, just see it online only
[18:29] <taree> i know ;_; bash makes me sad
[18:29] <geekphreak> tyler_d1: not sure if this is what ya mean w3m https://site
[18:29] <SiXke> it doesnt give an error now, but nothing has happend
[18:29] <mr_fribble> Does GNOME come with vnc?
[18:29] <SiXke> how hard can it be :)
[18:29] <stephan> trying to download supergrub but it is not letting me download the tar.gz file
[18:30] <taree> and wildcard is so a regular expression btw
[18:30] <mickster04> SiXke: it probably has completed, check the destination folder
[18:30] <SiXke> i did, nothing there
[18:30] <arvind_khadri> Hi, how do i remove the whole of firefox and install it again ?
[18:30] <geekphreak> darory: try asking in #php  or #httpd
[18:30] <taree> * in bre == ? in ere
[18:30] <tyler_d1> geekphreak: what is "w3m" ?
[18:30] <geekphreak> tyler_d1: browser text based
[18:30] <mickster04> SiXke: do an "ls" in the from folder
[18:30] <daniskami> SiXke: if you want to copy an entire directory, you probably need cp -r anyway
[18:30] <SiXke> oh
[18:30] <iceroot> taree: wildgard is just a glob  you can use  cat /foo/* press tab and the bash (zsh is working with that) is writing every file on the cli
[18:30] <mickster04> -rf no?
[18:30] <geekphreak> arvind_khadri: apt-get remove --purge firefox
[18:31] <arvind_khadri> geekphreak, are you on karmic ?
[18:31] <geekphreak> arvind_khadri: lucid :)
[18:31] <taree> iceroot: that is just wrong, ls list files, cat concatenates. that's how it should be imho
[18:31] <ActionParsnip> Arvind_khadri: sudo apt-get --purge remove firefox*; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; mv $HOME/.mozilla $HOME/.mozilla_old
[18:31] <geekphreak> command is still same afaik mate
[18:32] <tyler_d1> geekphreak: no so much, you know how in firefox you can view a sites certificate, well I need to do that on a linux box
[18:32] <judgen> Do you know of any commandline wifi managers?
[18:32] <iceroot> taree: as is said  cat /foo/* TAB then you have something like  cat /foo/bar /foo/juhu /foo/foo on the shell
[18:32] <ActionParsnip> Arvind_khadri: will also give you a clean profile. You can rename back the mozilla folder if you want your old settings
[18:32] <mickster04> judgen: iwconfig not enough :P
[18:32] <geekphreak> tyler_d1: right?
[18:32] <iceroot> taree: on zsh and bash should do the same
[18:32] <tyler_d1> geekphreak: as its not accessable from any other machine, ip based filtering, so it will only respond 2 this server.
[18:32] <ActionParsnip> Judgen: wicd has a curses interface
[18:33] <arvind_khadri> ActionParsnip, i just installed firefox from the mozilla daily build, and i removed it, I really dont know where am I standing
[18:33] <taree> i dont like bash or bash
[18:33] <taree> s/bash/zsh/
[18:33] <SiXke> ok it worked :)
[18:33] <joaopinto> tyler_d1, openssl s_client -host ssl_server_hostname
[18:33] <sipior> taree: you have lots of options. use them instead.
[18:33] <geekphreak> tyler_d1: you have gui  option ?
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> Arvind_khadri: what do you mean?
[18:33] <SiXke> how do I delete the testmaps ? :)
[18:34] <mickster04> SiXke: testmaps?
[18:34] <geekphreak> joaopinto: thanks
[18:34] <mickster04> SiXke: rm
[18:34] <iceroot> taree: just working on zsh, bash is not replacing the * when pressing tab
[18:34] <SiXke> some wrong maps that I created accidently trying to copy :)
[18:34] <SiXke> del doesnt work
[18:34] <mickster04> SiXke: i presume?
[18:34] <SiXke> rm?
[18:34] <ActionParsnip> Arvind_khadri: if you want firefox from the ubuntu repo just disable or remove the mozilla ppa and reinstall firefox
[18:34] <mickster04> SiXke: efine map?
[18:34] <mickster04> SiXke: define*
[18:34] <tyler_d1> joaopinto: tyvm, so to clarify s_client is me? and ssl_server_hostname is the url?
[18:35] <SiXke> folder
[18:35] <tyler_d1> geekphreak: thanks for the help :)
[18:35] <taree> so, i was thinking before of the riobuntu project, anyone wants to join?
[18:35] <joaopinto> tyler_d1, nom s_client is a command name for openssl
[18:35] <geekphreak> tyler_d1:  :)
[18:35] <mickster04> SiXke: re -r /folder/or/file
[18:35] <joaopinto> tyler_d1, ssl_server_hostname is the server from the remote url, and you also need -port 443
[18:35] <tyler_d1> joaopinto: so if I get gethostbyname failure?
[18:35] <SiXke> nice
[18:35] <SiXke> thanks for irc :)
[18:36] <SiXke> thx guys
[18:36] <joaopinto> tyler_d1, that means you are providing an hostname which does not resolve, please remember that https:// is not part of the hostname
[18:36] <SiXke> now I need to get the wifi up and running, joy :)
[18:36] <arvind_khadri> ActionParsnip, doing so, could you tell me which version of xulrunner you are on, in karmic
[18:36] <mickster04> SiXke: why are u in cli all the time?
[18:36] <tyler_d1> joaopinto: yes
[18:36] <rafaelsoaresbr> is there anyone here using airprime driver?
[18:36] <ActionParsnip> Arvind_khadri: I'm using pure lucid and don't use firefox, sorry
[18:36] <taree> cli is more sane than gui
[18:37] <arvind_khadri> ActionParsnip, oh ok
[18:37] <iceroot> !anyone | rafaelsoaresbr
[18:37] <SiXke> dont think xbmc live has a gui for linux
[18:37] <mickster04> SiXke: oic
[18:38] <Damascene> is there a good way to record desktop without any compression?
[18:42] <arvind_khadri> xulrunner is broken, and i want to install it again, if i remove it, other packages will be removed too, what to do ?
[18:42] <geekphreak> Damascene: recordmydesktop ?? like that?
[18:42] <tyler_d1> joaopinto: I am now just seeing connection refused...
[18:42] <tyler_d1> joaopinto: its resolvable and telnet to 443 works....
[18:43] <Damascene> geekphreak, it compress I think
[18:43] <geekphreak> Damascene: dont use it much, most apps like this have compression setting you can turn off, tried it?
[18:43] <aetaric> tyler_d1: on telnet try sending GET /
[18:43] <bappy2> can I upgrade straight from Hardy to Lucid ?
[18:44] <jpds> bappy2: Yes.
[18:44] <Damascene> geekphreak, read the manual couldn't find it
[18:44] <geekphreak> Damascene: got vlc :)
[18:44] <bappy2> jpds: i don't see the "new distribution release" option in the update manager .. how do i do it ?
[18:45] <jpds> bappy2: update-manager -d
[18:45] <Damascene> geekphreak, is weak
[18:45] <Damascene> not for desktop recording
[18:45] <Damascene> I mean doesn't have much features
[18:45] <Pici> bappy2: Lucid is not yet released, and as such, its support is only in #ubuntu+1 at the moment.
[18:45] <bappy2> ahh. nice i see it now, thanks !
[18:45] <geekphreak> right
[18:46] <bappy2> oh? but I thought 10.04 means that it will be released this month ?
[18:46] <Pici> bappy2: It will be released on the 29th.
[18:46] <jsidhu> i tihnk its supposed to be released 29th
[18:46] <zvacet> bappy2: april 29
[18:47] <bappy2> if it's not yet released, why does the option show up in the update manger to upgrade to it ?
[18:47] <bappy2> hmm, well i see the beta warning
[18:47] <zvacet> bappy2:  :)
[18:47] <Pici> bappy2: Because you just supplied the '-d' argument, which says that you want to upgrade to the Development release.
[18:47] <bappy2> ah.
[18:47] <bappy2> i guess i will wait 9 more days then
[18:48] <bappy2> :)
[18:48] <arvind_khadri> xulrunner is broken, and i want to install it again, if i remove it, other packages will be removed too, what to do ?
[18:48] <Ivis> Hello "modinfo for module nvidia_96 failed: ERROR: modinfo: could not find module nvidia_96" when i try install nvidia drivers. Ubuntu 10.04
[18:48] <Pici> Ivis : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion.
[18:48] <zvacet> bappy2: I suggest even more servers will be overloaded as usually
[18:48] <mr_fribble> Does GNOME come with vnc?
[18:48] <Ivis> Pici,  thanks bro
[18:49] <bappy2> that's odd, I'm on hardy LTS. How come upgrade manager without -d doesn't show options for the other newer releases ?
[18:50] <zvacet> bappy2: because you are upgrading from one lts to another
[18:50] <DJCharlie> Security question. Every 5-10 minutes I find my desktop IP (<IP_ADDRESS>) banned from my server in iptables. What's causing this, and how can I stop it?
[18:50] <arvind_khadri> bappy2, as it is not yet released
[18:50] <zvacet> bappy2 : lucid is LTS too so you can make direct upgrade from Hardy
[18:51] <bappy2> so there wasn't another LTS since hardy ?
[18:51] <zvacet> bappy2 : no
[18:51] <bappy2> ah.
[18:51] <rocket16> bappy2: But 10.04 will be.
[18:52] <zvacet> bappy2 : I thinnk every two years

[19:03] <mean67> I love google
[19:03] <ActionParsnip> Mean67: not when it makes links like that
[19:03] <mean67> oh
[19:03] <ActionParsnip> Exactly
[19:04] <mean67> well anyone assist me with a install issue I am having
[19:04] <ActionParsnip> Mean67: ask away
[19:04] <RyanP> savid: Is there some sort of hardware switch that enables and disables your wireless card?
[19:04] <mean67> I am unable to install 9.10 on a system that use to run windows
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> Savid: read: dmesg | tail -n 20 ,should give clues. You may have top modprobe the driver module in
[19:05] <savid> RyanP,  yeah,  but it's turned on.  And I've rebooted.  And the "WiFi" light is lit up on my computer.
[19:05] <mean67> after I do the whole install and reboot it comes back with nothing
[19:05] <duleep> mobile broad band connection problem.....
[19:05] <mean67> like the install never happened
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> Mean67: did you md5 test the file you downloaded?
[19:05] <duleep> anybody had that problem
[19:05] <RyanP> savid: Don't know then.

[19:06] <Ahox_> Hi, since installing 10.4beta my glx does not work anymore with an error in my X.log (EE) GLX error: Can not get required symbols. any ideas?
[19:06] <mean67> no I did not but I have used the disk for 2 other installs that went fine
[19:06] <DJCharlie> Question: Every 5-10 minutes, my server (<IP_ADDRESS>) bans my desktop (<IP_ADDRESS>) from access using iptables! Any clues on what's causing this, and how to stop it?
[19:06] <ActionParsnip> !lucid | ahox_
[19:06] <savid> ActionParsnip, how can I find the right module name?
[19:06] <KB1JWQ> DJCharlie: fail2ban?
[19:06] <gilesw> heya I'm trying to backport a package from lucid to hardy
[19:06] <armence> Hey all, how can I change my menu icons?
[19:06] <gilesw> I'm getting Unsupported format of .dsc file (3.0 (quilt)
[19:06] <ActionParsnip> Savid_: i'd read the dmesg output. It may fill you in
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> Armence: run alacarte
[19:07] <frog_> exit
[19:07] <gilesw> I don't know how feasable it is to backport dpkg-dev
[19:07] <frog_> ouch
[19:07] <frog_> xD
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> Armence: or do you mean the actual icon for the menu itself?
[19:07] <dman> hey im having an issue with 3 monitors and nvidia twinview, i have twinview on one card and a second x server running on the second but whenver the secon card is runnign twinviews xinerama doesnt work
[19:07] <armence> ActionParsnip, No, the icon for specific programs in the menu
[19:08] <Jordan_U> gilesw: http://wiki.debian.org/Projects/DebSrc3.0#Willmypackagesbebackportabletoetch.3F
[19:08] <ActionParsnip> Armence: alacarte will do that. Click the icon when you modify an item and point it to the new image
[19:08] <armence> ActionParsnip, And I apparently am already running it
[19:08] <ActionParsnip> Armence: kill it then rerun it, you can also right click the menu and select edit menu
[19:09] <gilesw> cheers Jordan_U sound like I'm not the only one
[19:09] <Edgan> dman: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?s&forumid=14  <--- Look for posts on this forum. Last I saw it required either a patched X or a Matrox box to split one of the cables into two monitors.
[19:09] <armence> ActionParsnip, Thanks
[19:09] <ActionParsnip> Armence: you can also edit the files in /usr/share/applications to define the icon there but the gui way is far easier
[19:10] <geekphreak> goodnight people
[19:10] <duleep> mobile byroad band connection show active but some time when i try to browse INTERNET using firfox browser that show not Internet connection
[19:10] <armence> ActionParsnip, Thanks... I had not been clicking in all the right places
[19:10] <rocket16> Lol, is there any Specialized version of Ubuntu for Laptops? Because (not Netbook edition), OpenSuse 11 is said to be the best Laptop Linux, while Ubuntu is said to be the best Desktop Linux.
[19:10] <armence> It works now
[19:11] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: there is no best desktop linux
[19:11] <LzrdKing> rocket16: ubuntu server is running awesomly on my notebook htpc
[19:11] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: There is, based on User Experience. And Ubuntu is the best.
[19:11] <Nanashi> syntax: register
[19:11] <rocket16> LzrdKing: Oh, thanks.
[19:11] <LzrdKing> yes, ubuntu is the best
[19:11] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: no, just because more people like it doesn't make it best in any way at all
[19:12] <LzrdKing> rocket16: of course, that notebook is only being asked to one run application ever
[19:12] <DJCharlie> Question: Every 5-10 minutes, my server (<IP_ADDRESS>) bans my desktop (<IP_ADDRESS>) from access using iptables! Any clues on what's causing this, and how to stop it?
[19:12] <mean67> so I noticed on the intel motherboards spec sheet that there is no mention of linux support , could that be the issue
[19:12] <mean67> I am guessing not
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: i'd use xubuntu or ubuntu + lxde for lightness (more responsive system)
[19:12] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: Fame comes from others Individual Judgements, and People accept Ubuntu, since it is the best. Also, Ubuntu is the most user-friendly Linux for PCs.
[19:12] <Jordan_U> mean67: Linux support is almost never mentioned, intel hardware is usually well supported.
[19:13] <mean67> I thought so
[19:13] <Jordan_U> !best | rocket16
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: then by the same token, windows is a better OS than linux as more users use it. True?
[19:13] <milezteg_> Q:  Strange problem on a UBuntu dedicated web server.  We're using Ruby to pull in a web page and do some parsing on it.  We noticed the web page being pulled in was an old copy of the page.  The issue is that if we grab the web page via either wget or even lynx we see an old copy of the page.  Could anyone offer a suggestion as to what is causing this?
[19:13] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: Anything *buntu, whether Lubuntu, Kubuntu or Xubuntu is the best.
[19:13] <mean67> so then the other issue that i see is that I am using SATA drives to boot from and I am guessing that should not be a issue as well
[19:14] <LzrdKing> when my laptop running boxee sleeps and then wakes up, the sound is gone and i need to restart boxee.  anyone know why?
[19:14] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: The talk is related to Open-Source, but Windows is not. Also, many people used Windows, but they are switching to Ubuntu now. And it is Ubuntu who challenged Microsoft in a bold way.
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: best is a comparison of needs compared to what the product can do. If you want to play the latest games without issue then ubuntu is a poor choice. There is no best
[19:14] <Jordan_U> milezteg_: What web page? Their server may use user agent detection and present chached pages to bots.
[19:15] <crimsun> LzrdKing: could be because of a broken patch I made; can you use http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh, please?
[19:15] <Jordan_U> s/chached/cached/
[19:15] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: Computing World is not only for gaming. For gaming, get a XBox or Playstation. Computer is mainly for learning and development. It is for better use. And in all fields, Ubuntu is the best.
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: ubuntu is also a poor choice for very low end hardware (133mhz cpu + 64mb ram) and puppy or damnsmall linux is a far better choice
[19:15] <cristi_> ok done with the kernels .... free up some space but g parted shows 25 gb used .... for one week on my pc .....
[19:16] <yaaar> hey guys. i just bought a new laptop and I'm considering putting an ssd (Kingston ssdnow w/ TRIM) in it as the only storage. Is there anything special I need to do for that tuning-wise? the laptop probably won't be here before lucid is released so i expect i'll use that...
[19:16] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: For everyday use, Puppy is a joke. Ubuntu and Puppy's goals differ.
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: not on poor hardware, puppy will perform much better.
[19:16] <Urda> cristi_: checkout deboprhan, see if you have orphaned packages
[19:16] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: Ubuntu JeOS can do the same.
[19:17] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: Lubuntu is also nicer than Puppy in many ways.
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: exactly, so if the system suits puppy better than ubuntu then puppy is "best" in that situation
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: ubuntu is not always the solution
[19:17] <mean67> just cant figure out why it does not see the OS after I install it
[19:17] <LordKow> i think if you use the debian installer you can get a really trimmed down ubuntu install
[19:18] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: In the modern world, People who are in Computing, should upgrade their Systems. And for low-end systems, any Linux with low DE can do. Why only Puppy? DSL can do the same, and Lubuntu too.
[19:18] <zvacet> cristi_ type in terminal df  and paste it here with http://ubuntu.pastebin.com
[19:18] <LordKow> at least with debian you can disable X altogether.
[19:18] <LzrdKing> crimsun: what does "powersave" with modprobe do?
[19:18] <LzrdKing> err power_save
[19:18] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: The "best" is counted as a basis on "How many fields a thing is better than others", and Ubuntu is much better in most cases. So, it is the Best.
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: why should I upgrade, my low end stuff performs what I need excellently so I have no interest of upgrading. Just because I can't run a big bloated de+wm doesn't mean I have to upgrade
[19:19] <crimsun> LzrdKing: depends on the value you pass to it.
[19:19] <gdb> rocket16: That's your opinion, you're welcome to it. :-)  (Just accept that it's wrong.) ;-)
[19:19] <zvacet> rocket16 : I don´t know can you run lubuntu with 64Gb of ram
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: yes but you missed the situation, yes ubuntu is good but it has some situations it just doesn't fit
[19:20] <crimsun> zvacet: 64 *GB* ?
[19:20] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: Check out the Ubuntu Synaptic, and you can get anything like that, low-end system maintainance and so. So, LXDE can be used in Ubuntu, and so can be ICEWM, so Ubuntu can perform much better than Puppy.
[19:20] <zvacet> crimsun : lapuss calami
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: ii'm part of the lubuntu team dude ;)
[19:21] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: Also, where is the package manager for Puppy? Nowhere, Ubuntu has strongest support, because check the supports of both.
[19:21] <zvacet> rocket16 : you found wrong man to argue with  ;)
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: puppy is designed with lowlevel in mind and its kernel reflects that the generic kernel of ubuntu is quite large
[19:22] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: there is a package manager for puppy
[19:22] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: Nice to know it, but then, community of Ubuntu needs centralization, not fragmentation. I am among Ubuntu Sideline developers too (the default version)
[19:22] <Pici> !ot
[19:22] <LzrdKing> crimsun: snd-hda-intel: power_save=10 power_save_controller=N
[19:22] <sharq> hi
[19:22] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: I know, but is it really nicer than Synaptic? No,
[19:22] <sharq> is lubuntu better choice than xubuntu for computer with 256MB  RAM?
[19:22] <sharq> i don't see any informations about memory usage on LUbuntu page
[19:22] <crimsun> LzrdKing: it means the controller powers down after 10 idle seconds
[19:22] <rocket16> sharq: Yes,
[19:23] <zvacet> sharq : yes
[19:23] <crimsun> sharq: it's utterly dependent on usage
[19:23] <ActionParsnip> Sharq: i'd say so
[19:23] <LzrdKing> crimsun: could that be related to the sound going away?
[19:23] <sharq> XUbuntu needs about 190MB for start, how about LUbuntu?
[19:23] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: I suggest you read: http://www.puppylinux.com/development/package-management.htm
[19:23] <crimsun> LzrdKing: unlikely, since you mentioned that your symptom only appears after resuming from StR
[19:23] <cristi_> ok , y,ve done the trick with deborphan , only one plug in found , done also the one with pastebin.com
[19:23] <crimsun> LzrdKing: I need the URL generated from the script, however
[19:24] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: Discussing about Puppy is not welcome here. It is he Ubuntu Support Channel.
[19:24] <LzrdKing> crimsun: i didn't upload it yet, i'm looking to see whats in it
[19:24] <ActionParsnip> Sharq: install lxde and log out then log into lxde and check ;)
[19:24] <rocket16> !offtopic | ActionParsnip
[19:24] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: weird, you were doing it before, nice hypocisy eh
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> *hypocrisy (sp)
[19:25] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: As per my question's answers, you seem to start debates on the main support channel. Please don't do so.
[19:25] <sharq> ok, thx
[19:25] <mickster04> why isnt lxde allowed in #ubuntu anyway? it can be related to it can't it, lxde is like gnome?
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> Sharq: you can always uninstall lxde if you don't like it
[19:26] <sharq> thats true
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> Mickster04: it is as its in the official repo :D
[19:26] <cristi_> the og files are 11 gb , its this normal ?
[19:26] <mickster04> :D
[19:26] <cristi_> the log files are 11 gb , its this normal ?
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> Cristi_: og?
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> Cristi_: that's quite a lot. Irecommend you use bleachbit as both user and root to clean the system a lot
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> Cristi_: I suggest you close as many apps as you can and watch the browser cleaning settings. Also avoid tasks which say they will take a long time
[19:27] <LzrdKing> crimsun: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=f7184e962e54ed4260c0c3017f39cba248d19ff3
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> Cristi_: should clean the logs as well as the temp guff your system has amassed
[19:28] <LzrdKing> is that hash cryptographically secure?
[19:28] <zvacet> sharq : I used to run lubuntu with 192mb of ram it was O.K.
[19:28] <cristi_> thanks , y will try this also
[19:29] <crimsun> LzrdKing: are you using linux-alsa-driver-modules-$(uname -r) from ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev?
[19:29] <sharq> zvacet: thx
[19:29] <LzrdKing> i uset to run slackware with the 2.2 kernel on a 386 with 16mb of ram
[19:29] <LzrdKing> used*
[19:29] <zvacet> sharq : yw
[19:29] <jshriver> Anyone know of a utility that I can feed it a directory and it can automatically create multiple iso files ready for burning?
[19:30] <jshriver> basically mkisofs but with some logic so if I have say a 20gig directory it can find the optimal file layout to make the least number of discs for backup
[19:30] <zvacet> LzrdKing : sorry for broken English I use lubuntu in the past is this correct
[19:31] <kacper> #ubuntu-pl
[19:32] <LzrdKing> crimsun: no ppa, its all from startard repos
[19:34] <crimsun> LzrdKing: are you using -backports-modules-alsa* ?
[19:34] <jrr> gnometris' bastard mode is hilarious
[19:34] <crimsun> LzrdKing: because we definitely don't ship <IP_ADDRESS> by default
[19:34] <bastid_raZor> gfigwruihggr hrt
[19:35] <jfoozie420> ello can anyone help me turn off ipv6??
[19:35] <LzrdKing> crimsun: maybe boxee demanded it...
[19:35] <jfoozie420> someone told me to get into grub, but i don't know what to do next???
[19:35] <LzrdKing> but no, i'm not
[19:36] <crimsun> LzrdKing: err, well, unless you know where you got <IP_ADDRESS> and how, I'm afraid I can only recommend that you either revert to known distro versions or use the PPA.
[19:36] <LzrdKing> crimsun: how can i generate a list of installed packages?
[19:36] <oldmerovingian> What does Ubuntu use in place of dhcpcd?
[19:37] <crimsun> LzrdKing: dpkg -l
[19:37] <gdewald> Hi, anyone know why I get a slight ringing in my speakers?
[19:38] <LzrdKing> ahh, i tried dpk -l alsa
[19:38] <RJRDon> i can't seem to update clamav in feisty fawn. All source code repositories are discontinued?
[19:38] <jfoozie420> homies common, can't you help a brotha out???!?!?
[19:38] <LzrdKing> dpkg*
[19:38] <geekphreak> RJRDon: how are you updating?
[19:38] <Lenin_Cat> is there a way to make linux run this command often? sync && sudo sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=3 && sudo sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=0
[19:38] <VCoolio> RJRDon: yes, unsupported for quite some time now
[19:38] <Lenin_Cat> That or disable memmory cache
[19:38] <RJRDon> apt-get update just gives me a bunch of error messages about the repository
[19:39] <fedora-stuck> hello!
[19:39] <Sachse_Siechtum> How do I get my logitech quickcam working in skype?

[19:39] <LzrdKing> crimsun: i have alsa-base 1.0.20+dfsg-1ubuntu5 installed; where did you get <IP_ADDRESS> from?
[19:39] <LzrdKing> i guess i do have backports though
[19:40] <cristi_> still the same .... y dont ghet it .... only 200 mb ghet free
[19:40] <mickster04> fedora-stuck: no cd to burn?
[19:40] <fedora-stuck> nope

[19:48] <Pici> studentz : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion.
[19:48] <fedora-stuck> anyone knows how i can create an ubuntu live usb from fedora?? I am stuck here... (in fedora :( )
[19:48] <realcoolguy> MobiusJedi: I'm pretty sure if the folder permission is set so that only the owner (root) can read it, the files won't show (permission denied)  I'm not sure about individual hidden files however...
[19:49] <d33d> fedora-stuck, you may want to check this out: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraLiveCD/USBHowTo
[19:49] <MobiusJedi> realcoolguy: cool, thanks
[19:51] <fedora-stuck> d33d: ..this supports only fedora!
[19:51] <fedora-stuck> you cant use it for any other distro!
[19:51] <alexandre> org
[19:51] <fedora-stuck> wasnt expecting that when i installed this for the fun.
[19:52] <kian_> How I can open .xmind files?
[19:52] <d33d> FederationNDP, really? it allows you to choose an iso...
[19:52] <Gryllida> how do I install and use cpan (for Perl)?
[19:52] <d33d> fedora-stuck, really? it allows you to choose an iso...
[19:53] <fedora-stuck> yeap
[19:53] <fedora-stuck> and says thats it is not supported or something like that..
[19:53] <fedora-stuck> i am trying with dd command
[19:53] <fedora-stuck> but dont know exactly what tyo do
[19:53] <d33d> fedora-stuck, http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[19:54] <crimsun> LzrdKing: it would be more useful to use the newer version (1.0.23)
[19:54] <fedora-stuck> d33d.. tried that too! Unetbootin does not work with fedora...
[19:54] <fedora-stuck> not always at least. And ofcourse not in my case :P
[19:54] <fedora-stuck> The Fedora Project has received numerous bug reports relating to using Fedora Live USB keys made with unetbootin
[19:55] <Total_Oblivion> Hello how can i run Ubuntu on a virtual machine on windows 7?
[19:55] <fedora-stuck> i tried sudo dd if=/media/1e7fcf74-f85d-4037-a5ea-0a76ab43ee22/home/jastonas/Downloads/Torrents/ubuntu-10.04-beta2-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdc1 bs=1M  and going to check it now
[19:55] <tripelb> I need help !! I keep touching my keyboad and setting off a Request for Screenshot. But I havent been able to find the key by testing. How could I look it up BY MYSLEF and not have to ask you? (as well as what is it?)
[19:55] <d33d> fedora-stuck, they are on Fedora Project https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/search/unetbootin you need to use unetbootin - to run Ubuntu. NOT fedora. It works but it means, you cannot use it to run a Fedora Live USB.
[19:55] <fedora-stuck> you think that will do? Do i need to do anything  else besides dd if=....
[19:55] <Nanashi> @Total_Oblivion Virtual Box
[19:55] <realcoolguy> Total_Oblivion: Try looking at Sun's Virtual box.
[19:55]  * tripelb goes to get tea
[19:55] <tripelb> brb
[19:56] <fedora-stuck> d33d
[19:56] <fedora-stuck> the link you sent me.. it has some files in it?? What do i do with those...??
[19:57] <Gryllida> how do I install and use cpan (for Perl)? install perl -MCPAN -e shell in Terminal?? how to install modules after that?
[19:57] <d33d> fedora-stuck, one second
[19:58] <fedora-stuck> aaa ok
[19:58] <fedora-stuck> downloaded with yum!!
[19:58] <g0r3_0f_g0d> hi all
[19:58] <fedora-stuck> i just tried downloading unetbootin from sourceforge.. didnt expect it to be in fedora repositories
[19:58] <Pici> Gryllida: 'cpan' is part of the perl package in Ubuntu.
[19:58] <fedora-stuck> thanx
[19:58] <fedora-stuck> will probably work
[19:59] <Chetic_> how do I upload a folder of stuffs with ssh using a terminal?
[19:59] <Pici> fedora-stuck, d33d: Do you mind moving the fedora support to their channel, it is not really on-topic for #ubuntu
[19:59] <Losha> Gryllida: sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell will do start a shell, then you can run install commands once it starts, BUT, all the modules installable via CPAN appear to be available as ubuntu packages, and it's much easier to install them that way instead...
[19:59] <fedora-stuck> Pici ok but its about making an ubuntu  live usb
[19:59] <Gryllida> Losha, IO::Output -how toinstall it??
[19:59] <g0r3_0f_g0d> Chetic, try scp source destination
[19:59] <fedora-stuck> anyway i think we re done here. Thanks for the help d33d
[19:59] <fedora-stuck> ubuntu question
[19:59] <Ven]n> every time i install something or do autoremove, it tries to install something bcmwl-5.60... and fails with error: bad return status for module build on kernel.  how can I "clear" that from installation?
[19:59] <fedora-stuck> how can i format a usb stick from terminal?
[20:00] <fedora-stuck> lets say sdb1
[20:00] <g0r3_0f_g0d> fedora-stuck, mkfs.vfat or mkfs.ntfs for wind0ze compatible sticks
[20:01] <LzrdKing> crimsun: how do i get 1.0.23?

[20:04] <d33d> Guest60043, Have you tried Ubuntu Tweak?
[20:04] <Guest60043> ortsvorsteher: OK i m kidding :)
[20:04] <ortsvorsteher> ;)
[20:04] <ortsvorsteher> try and have fun ; )
[20:04] <Guest60043> d33d: no I havent...
[20:04] <g0r3_0f_g0d> Ven]n, remove the keys directory or use keyring manager
[20:05] <crimsun> LzrdKing: see the PPA that I mentioned before
[20:05] <Guest60043> ortsvorsteher: flashplugin-nonfree est déjà la plus récente version disponible.
[20:05] <elwaywitvac> anyone know how to change the screen size/width for the shell on a server?
[20:05] <Losha> Gryllida: I usually do something like: apt-cache search perl | egrep -i Output and then try to guess which package fits. Sometimes it takes a few tries. Or you can do it via sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell
[20:05] <ortsvorsteher> Guest60043, sorry, as i am a german, my english is bad enough... but my french.... ;)
[20:05] <ortsvorsteher> !fr | Guest60043
[20:05] <d33d> Guest60043, its awesome and easy...but i tihnk you can do the same from the non-free ubuntu repos...check out Ubuntu Tweak ... simple gui install for it :D plus a few other neat applications
[20:05] <Guest60043> ortsvorsteher:  it s already in its newest version
[20:06]  * alessiofachechi saluta il chan clan :D
[20:06] <ortsvorsteher> Guest60043, did you restart your browser?
[20:06] <Guest60043> shouldn  t this come automatically in updates?
[20:06] <Guest60043> ortsvorsteher: yes I did; this problem is not from today...
[20:06] <Droopsta915> How can I fix my boot to show the ubuntu logo and the orange loading bar?
[20:06] <ortsvorsteher> Guest60043, are you sure you dont have installed gnash? no, it dont comes automatically
[20:06] <elwaywitvac> anyone know how to change the shell resolution/size on a server with no X windows
[20:06] <Guest60043> Are we not supposed to get this EASIILY?
[20:07] <Guest60043> ortsvorsteher: gnash is not installed
[20:07] <ortsvorsteher> Guest60043, so sorry, than i have no idea...
[20:07] <Guest60043> ortsvorsteher: should I go for gnash?
[20:08] <xomp> there's no spawn-fcgi package for ubuntu 8.04?!
[20:08] <ortsvorsteher> Guest60043, if you want to watch youtube videos... no!
[20:08] <Guest60043> ok
[20:08] <Gryllida> Losha, can you elaborate, can you maybe try to find the package and give me the exact lines to do it?
[20:09] <mrsun> ubuntu+1
[20:09] <Guest60043> So what should I do? I don t want to go through Ubuntu Tweak. No way.
[20:09] <Guest60043> It MUST be easy.
[20:09] <d33d> Guest60043, Do this. 1) run sudo apt-get remove gnash 2)sudo apt-get remove flash-plugin 3) Visit http://ubuntu-tweak.com/ 4) click Download Now - once downloaded run the .deb package by double clicking it, authenticating and installing the package, once installed, let it update and check the box for Flash player. Simple.
[20:09] <Gryllida> mrsun, #ubuntu+1 is the lycid lynx support channel, to join type /join #ubuntu+1
[20:09] <Guest60043> must be something easy. I can t beleive this is not fixed
[20:10] <mrsun> Gryllida, aye =)
[20:10] <mrsun> was a laggish =)
[20:11] <Guest60043> d33d: unsatisfied dep. I quit. this really scks.
[20:11] <Guest60043> cheers guys
[20:11] <Guest60043> bye
[20:11] <d33d> Guest60043, I told myself the same, but really, would you rather spend 2 hours getting flash to work or just fix it and get on with life?
[20:12] <g0r3_0f_g0d> how easy does it have to be with flash ..
[20:12] <g0r3_0f_g0d> unpacking one file into one directory and restarting the browser , c'mon
[20:12] <tripelb> I need help !! I keep touching my keyboad and setting off a Request for Screenshot. But I havent been able to find the key by testing.  (what is it?)
[20:13] <d33d> g0r3_0f_g0d, Im running 64 bit....took too long to gett it working.
[20:13] <g0r3_0f_g0d> nah , did you get adobe-labs one d33d
[20:13] <brontosaurusrex> tripelb: prt scr (top right)
[20:13] <g0r3_0f_g0d> there is the beta 64 bit native
[20:13] <c3l> I need to convert an mp3 (or any) to m4r. is there some program in ubuntu to do this?
[20:14] <xomp> anyone know a standalone FastCGI daemon package for Ubuntu 8.04 LTS?
[20:14] <tripelb> brontosaurusrex, (big guy there!) thanks. Can you tell me HOW I could have looked this up by myself?
[20:14] <xomp> I'd rather not install lighttpd to get fastCGI
[20:14] <brontosaurusrex> c3l: whats m4r?
[20:14] <d33d> g0r3_0f_g0d, no, i don't believe it was easy to find an adobe-labs one?
[20:14] <g0r3_0f_g0d> the website is a mess i agree d33d
[20:14] <c3l> brontosaurusrex, some proprietary crap format for iPhone ringtones =)
[20:14] <g0r3_0f_g0d> but ubuntuguide.net sorts this out with copy&paste
[20:15] <tripelb> Another question! There is "some place" that I can go to to change the _default size of a desktop icon" but I cant find it now.
[20:15] <d33d> it just took too long to figure it out... it was depressing.... however, its easier than trying to do it on Fedora 12 64bit.
[20:15] <Losha> Gryllida: one of the packages listed by apt-cache looked promising: libio-capture-perl. So just type the following: sudo apt-get install libio-capture-perl
[20:16] <g0r3_0f_g0d> ah my beloved fedora , i just recently left it for lucid with it's cool new top bar for tweeting
[20:16] <ZykoticK9> c3l, see http://blog.forret.com/2009/02/create-your-own-iphone-ring-tones/ but if m4r uses AAC i don't think it will work currently with ffmpeg -- good luck man
[20:16] <Gryllida> Losha, do you think this one will include the IO::output? why do you think so?
[20:16] <tripelb> HEY g0r3_0f_g0d thanks a lot for telling me about ubuntuguide.net
[20:16] <g0r3_0f_g0d> the trick with the 64bit flash there it is /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins not /usr/lib
[20:16] <tripelb> telling all
[20:16] <tripelb> of us
[20:16] <c3l> ZykoticK9, thanks
[20:17] <g0r3_0f_g0d> tripelb, i'm surprised you guys aren't aware of that
[20:17] <manohar> how to write mp3 CD in ubuntu 8.04LTS so that it can be played in any CD/DVD players
[20:17] <manohar> i used k3b but it has audio CD option no mp3
[20:17] <Losha> Gryllida: basically because it has "io" in the name and output in the description. I admit it's a guess, but if it's the wrong one, there's no harm done...
[20:18] <d33d> tripelb, what did you find useful on ubuntuguide.net?
[20:18] <bastid_raZor> manohar: did you install kubuntu-restricted-extras ?
[20:18] <ZykoticK9> manohar, i'm surprised that k3b can't convert the mp3s automatically - you could always convert to WAV first then k3b should be able to use them.  Good luck.
[20:18] <Gryllida> Losha, can I get a list of perl modules this suggested package of yours installs?
[20:18] <g0r3_0f_g0d> thik you need mp3 gstreamer first to decompress mp3s
[20:18] <LzrdKing> crimsun: i did, how do i add a ppa?
[20:19] <Gryllida> I mean I install it, can I check what modules it includes after installation?
[20:19] <tripelb> g0r3_0f_g0d, I'm not part of "you guys" I am new (ok now new-ish) at this. I know of community documentation. I know of ubuntuforums which I have used _copiously_ lol -- I was a programmer in the wayback (before windows on mainframes:) but this is a massive jungle. When I get better I hope to write some newbie stuff.
[20:19] <TomG> manohar: There's a specific package you need so k3b will automatically convert to the right format
[20:19] <manohar> ZykoticK9: but wav files take up a lot of space as compared to mp3
[20:19] <g0r3_0f_g0d> tripelb, it comes up as a first entry on google when you type ubuntu + guide
[20:20] <ZykoticK9> manohar, you just need them to create the CD then delete them (safe the mp3s obviously)
[20:20] <ZykoticK9> s/safe/save
[20:20] <g0r3_0f_g0d> but you're welcome , glad it is helpful
[20:20] <jimius> hmmz, anyone happen to know a cross-platform calender app that can sync with google calender?
[20:20] <Chetic_> using scp -r, how do I copy only certain folders within a folder? not all
[20:20] <Losha> Gryllida: the only way I know to do that is to download it (without installing it, using apt-get -d install <package>) and then look inside it (using dpkg --contents  /var/cache/apt/archives/<packagename>). I agree this whole thing out to be easier...
[20:21] <manohar> TomG: can i make a data cd having mp3 files on it
[20:21] <TomG> manohar: If you're wanting to convert files, I've had good luck with 'soundconverter'
[20:21] <manohar> so that it can be played on CD/DVD players
[20:21] <g0r3_0f_g0d> there is also this cool new blog site i discovered called OMG Ubuntu
[20:21] <Guest52682> im trying to install my wireless device, which is not detected by ubuntu, but it comes with a linux driver. i cant get it to compile though http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/SH3xHdaB
[20:21] <realcoolguy> manohar: You're looking to create a 'mixed' file with both data and music?
[20:21] <manohar> i dont want to convert
[20:21] <freebsd_fan\home> i am running ubuntu on vmware using vista, how to enable ssh to be seen by vista?
[20:21] <LzrdKing> how do i add a ppa?
[20:21] <bastid_raZor> manohar: yes, unless the player is mp3 compatible then it will not play
[20:21] <tripelb> d33d, Deed lol, I just looked at it for a min but what I found was stuff I'd seen elsewhere gathered. That's a good thing and I inferred that I can find stuff I did-not get to see elsewhere. I had seen the redshift on reddit. Also I like being able to separately adjust my startup sound.  ((well I never typed guide, I just type questions into google. Hopefully guide gives you guide, lol, and I am in the tautology club thank you for asking))
[20:22] <tripelb> Another question! There is "some place" that I can go to to change the _default size of a desktop icon" but I cant find it now.
[20:22] <TheHunterZero> please help with this my ubuntu has an error with some packages they are broken now i wanted to delete them from sysanptic and it says that an error occurs with code 1
[20:22] <TheHunterZero> so i need help
[20:22] <tripelb> lol Ubuntu has joined ubuntu
[20:22] <Ubuntu> How do i install Orca on Windows under linux ?
[20:23] <manohar> i want to mp3 cd but if i add only mp3 files in data project and burn it in cd, can it be played in any mp3 supported cd/dvd player?
[20:23] <maco> manohar: yep should work
[20:23] <Chetic_> using scp, how do I copy only certain files within a folder?
[20:23] <Ubuntu> How do i install Orca on Windows under linux ?
[20:23] <Losha> Gryllida: I usually look for installed modules in /usr/lib/perl ....
[20:23] <TheHunterZero> help please
[20:23] <manohar> should or will definitely work? i am in confusion?
[20:24] <tripelb> Where can I find better drivers for my 2 Dell monitors? The big one has worse resolution than the small one. big 20 inch, small 15.
[20:24] <Ubuntu> How do i install Orca on Windows under linux ?
[20:24] <TheHunterZero> install orca
[20:24] <TheHunterZero> ok
[20:24] <Losha> Gryllida: In this case, I'd look for /usr/lib/perl/5.8.8/IO for a file named Output ...
[20:24] <ZykoticK9> !repeat | Ubuntu
[20:24] <TheHunterZero> go to Apps
[20:24] <realcoolguy> manohar:  It seems there's some confusion as to whether you want a standard cd that will play on standard players, or an 'mp3' cd that will play on specialized mp3 cd players.  If it's the latter, just burn the data disc, and you can fit several hours on, if it's the former you'll need a program to properly author a standard music/audio cd.
[20:25] <Losha> Gryllida: I have to go offline now for a couple of hours. Good luck. Check out http://www.deepakg.com/prog/2009/01/cpan-modules-on-ubuntu-apt-get-vs-perl-mcpan/
[20:25] <Gryllida> Ubuntu: Orca?? what is it?

[20:28] <tripelb> d33t anytime I sit here and just watch the flow I am stunned at how difficult it all is. And I thought I spent a lot of time on windows maintaining.
[20:28] <piglit> ZykoticK9, does virtualbox have got usb support/
[20:28] <TheHunterZero> hey
[20:28] <TheHunterZero> please
[20:28] <TheHunterZero> help
[20:29] <d33d> TheHunterZero, what is it you're trying to do?
[20:29] <TheHunterZero> so

[20:29] <manohar> piglit: virtualbox is good and has usb support
[20:29] <realcoolguy> manohar: there is no mp3 that will play on standard players.  Either you convert to a standard format, or you use a specialized mp3 disc player.
[20:29] <d33d> TheHunterZero, first off - please just type ALL the explanation in and then hit Enter.
[20:29] <TheHunterZero> ok

[20:30] <TheHunterZero> my ubuntu is getting error of code 1 .i was trying to uninstall cinelerra but it says that is an error and the error code is 1 un subprocess

[20:31] <bep_> have a problem with compiling xine-lib-1.2
[20:31] <TheHunterZero> downloading packages from internet
[20:31] <realcoolguy> trelane: I've had A LOT of open office issues lately, I'm not sure what it is.  I've revived my interest in Abiword (also does not move my cursor around 'auto numbering' things which just annoys me as well..)
[20:31] <Ven]n> how can I remove the need for typing in my password to connect to wlans when booting?
[20:31] <bep_> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/3xKnhbyA
[20:31] <Ven]n> i want keyring manager to remember my password :)
[20:31] <manohar> realcoolguy: if i want to make mp3 cd for any mp3 player can i make data project with only mp3 files in it? will it be compatible to run on mp3 players

[20:32] <g0r3_0f_g0d> ok can someone tell me how to get rid of these joiners / leavers messages in xchat
[20:33] <g0r3_0f_g0d> i've been in preferences and can't find it
[20:33] <tripelb> d33d thanks so much - that's much better now. ((question - why is the word Nautilus no where to be seen in the gnome desktop. It's like an in thing to know. Seems it should be on the top line of the FileBrowser window
[20:33] <ZykoticK9> Ven]n, then when you enter the network password leave it blank for password, and agree to use the Unsafe Storage when prompted
[20:33] <Ven]n> too late now :(
[20:33] <ZykoticK9> Ven]n, remove your current keyring to reset everything (if that is an option)
[20:34] <d33d> TheHunterZero, 1) Install This http://bit.ly/dlRUxq and 2) Click This: apt://cinelerracv
[20:34] <Ven]n> sure
[20:34] <Ven]n> ZykoticK9, but how? :)

[20:34] <realcoolguy> trelane: I see your point, to be fair my issues have been crashes on more than just the Linux platform (on different computers) so I'm willing to be that open office has been buggy lately.  If there's a spread sheet program alternative to open office, I'd look into it :)
[20:34] <ZykoticK9> Ven]n, NOT RECOMMENDED WARNING -- but see http://davestechsupport.com/blog/2009/01/16/how-to-remove-ubuntus-password-keyring/

[20:45] <Gryllida> sab, 10.4 is lycid lynx ubuntu, it is in beta now and will be released on april 29 of 2010 or so
[20:46] <chalcedony> it's a book .. it has chapters
[20:46] <g0r3_0f_g0d> chalcedony, unrar filename path
[20:46] <g0r3_0f_g0d> chalcedony, so like unrar example.rar /var/tmp
[20:46] <chalcedony> didn't work for me that way .. must be another command g0r3_0f_g0d
[20:46] <Shafiei> how may i know the list of my pc ports which are in use?
[20:47] <TKtiddle> hi should i trust the computer-janitor to remove unused packages?
[20:47] <g0r3_0f_g0d> chalcedony, actually i just checked the man for unrar and it states that there , sorry i don't have a rar to hand to test
[20:47] <C-S-B-N900> TKtiddle: I often dont, check what it wants to do.
[20:47] <amosek> chalcedony: unrar x file path
[20:48] <Shafiei> how may i know the list of my pc ports which are in use?
[20:48] <chalcedony> amosek, ty ty

[20:50] <mean67> I have a question , I have 2 70gig SATA 10k drives that I want to install ubuntu server on as well as 2 160 gig ide drives that i am goign to be using for data
[20:50] <g0r3_0f_g0d> Shafiei, or netstat -an shows active connections on ports
[20:51] <mean67> how should I go about installing the 10k's
[20:51] <jsidhu> mean67: installing 10ks?
[20:51] <panfist> where could i find documentation about how ls highlights different types of files in ubuntu?
[20:51] <g0r3_0f_g0d> mean67, how do you mean installing , the kernel will detect them automatically after they'ere plugged in
[20:51] <Shafiei> o0ps! i completely forgot about netstat
[20:52] <Shafiei> thanks man
[20:52] <darius__> need a little assistance w/ nvidia kernel install after installing 10.04
[20:52] <mean67> should I keep the swap and everything on 1 drive or should I put the swap in one the boot on the other
[20:52] <erUSUL> panfist: man -k dircolors
[20:52] <panfist> thanks
[20:52] <mean67> well I am goign to install server on a older desktop that I have
[20:53] <Ubuntu> How do i install Orca on Windows under linux ?
[20:53] <mean67> and by "10k's" I mean thats the speed of the drives
[20:53] <ikonia> Ubuntu: you where told about this earlier ?
[20:53] <jsidhu> thats the rotational speed of the drive, yes. so uh.. whats the question?
[20:53] <jsidhu> open up the case, pop the drives in..
[20:53] <g0r3_0f_g0d> mean67, keep the OS on one preferably , so swap , and root filesystem on one and data on the other if you with
[20:53] <panfist> erUSUL is there any human-readable documentation that covers the ubuntu defaults? this is a little hard to read http://paste.ubuntu.com/419444/
[20:53] <g0r3_0f_g0d> but it doesn't matter where you stick swap
[20:54] <jbwiv> if I am in a number of unix groups and I create a file, what controls the group the file is assigned? My default group? And if so, how can I make it default to one of the others for a particular directory, so that all new files created there will be given a particular group?
[20:54] <boabsta> mean67: its best to put swap on a different drive as binaries (/usr)
[20:54] <Ubuntu> hi
[20:54] <amosek> panfist: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=41538
[20:54] <mean67> ok
[20:55] <mean67> trying to figure out the best way to install it all with the hardware that i have
[20:55] <panfist> thank you amosek
[20:55] <erUSUL> panfist: dunno sorry
[20:55] <boabsta> mean67: google linux server partitions :)
[20:55] <amosek> panfist: np
[20:55] <mean67> no doubt
[20:55] <boabsta> mean67: so much depends on so much if you know what i mean - its up to what your server will be doing really
[20:56] <g0r3_0f_g0d> jbwiv, your default group will determine which group ownership the files will have that you create
[20:56] <mean67> well I am trying to set up a cloud, for the most part as somethign to play with
[20:57] <demifuror> hey guys, can anyone tell me how to stream tv to my linux box?
[20:57] <jbwiv> g0r3_0f_g0d, yes, but is there a way to specify, say for a particular directory, that all files created there will be created as one of my other groups?
[20:57] <g0r3_0f_g0d> the way i see it you need to run chown user:group filename if you want the other group to be owner , or make file readable to all groups
[20:57] <bubulein> hi
[20:57] <g0r3_0f_g0d> jbwiv, unfortunately no for one paticular directory only
[20:57] <psmbfuer> vlc is very good at streaming
[20:58] <boabsta> mean67: check out openvz if you havent already, saves you paying for multiple boxes to play with ;)
[20:58] <jbwiv> g0r3_0f_g0d, sure, but let's say there's a directory shared by a number of users, like a git repos directory, all users are members of a particular group but it's not their default group. this means everytime they push they create problems :(
[20:58] <boabsta> mean67: http://wiki.openvz.org/
[20:58] <bubulein> frage ? warum habe ich auf meinen kopferhöhreren unter ubuntu weniger power wie unter einem anderen unix os?
[20:58] <bubulein> kling lau
[20:58] <amosek> !de | bubulein
[20:59] <bubulein> treiber, sounderserver ? PBUC
[20:59] <g0r3_0f_g0d> jbwiv, i see it this way , the file perms are set to readable by others
[20:59] <bubulein> uups
[20:59] <bubulein>  sorry
[20:59] <jbwiv> g0r3_0f_g0d, sure, but if it's a shared git repository, they all need to write to it
[21:00] <g0r3_0f_g0d> jbwiv, yo your perms look like user:group:other , you can give 7 permision to other means everyone
[21:00] <bubulein> i repeat my question. why do i have on a my unix os more power on the headphones then on ubuntu? on ubuntu it sound "silence"
[21:00] <bmorris> Hey everybody.  I"m trying to set up an ssh tunnel but I'm having problems.. I used "ssh -D 9999<EMAIL_ADDRESS>to create the socks proxy and that seems to work but when I change the proxy settings in firefox I just get a blank page.  Anybody know what could be going on?'
[21:00] <manohar> i have ubuntu 8.04LTS running. i want to install 10.04LTS after its release. My PC confuguration is 845 motherboard, 32bit Intel P4 2.4GHz, 512 RAM, no external graphics card(in-built present). Can i install 10.04. I had problem installing 8.10 before. So installed 8.04 back.
[21:00] <brindlem> jbwiv: then you should create a repository group and assign those that need access to that group i.e. usermod -a -G repository user
[21:01] <jbwiv> g0r3_0f_g0d, this is the proper solution: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Setuid#setgid_on_directories
[21:02] <g0r3_0f_g0d> brilliant , i knew it doesn't make sense what i was saying
[21:02] <g0r3_0f_g0d> :)
[21:02] <g0r3_0f_g0d> this is the right trick
[21:03] <guntbert> bubulein: I suggest you ask in #ubuntu-de  -- might be easier to talk there
[21:05] <demifuror> can anyone tell me how to stream tv to my linux box?
[21:06] <manohar> i have ubuntu 8.04LTS running. i want to install 10.04LTS after its release. My PC confuguration is 845 motherboard, 32bit Intel P4 2.4GHz, 512 RAM, no external graphics card(in-built present). Can i install 10.04. I had problem installing 8.10 before. So installed 8.04 back.
[21:06] <barbarella> demifuror:vlc is an easy way to do it
[21:06] <demifuror> can i get espn on it?
[21:06] <g0r3_0f_g0d> demifuror, you talking about streaming from internet right?
[21:06] <captaintrav> any ideas how to troubleshoot system hanging with GL screensavers ?  I don't see anything in syslog or Xorg.0.log and the system freezes with both monitors black
[21:07] <demifuror> g0r3_0f_g0d: yes man, streaming from the net
[21:07] <demifuror> are there any good tutorials on ti?
[21:07] <g0r3_0f_g0d> if so you can find some mms type streams and play them with either mplayer or vlc
[21:08] <g0r3_0f_g0d> to stream internet stream fire up mplayer http://some.address.com/stream
[21:08] <g0r3_0f_g0d> but the sites providing streams are hard to come by these days , the free ones

[21:12] <TKtiddle> hi I have 2 disks, When i installed i chose to make the 1st disk the / partition and the 2nd disk the /home partition.  However my 1 disk has filled up really quick, the /home dir dosn't seem to be a symbolic link and there seems to be data in the /home dir of disk 1
[21:12] <bubulein> gunbert sorry misst the language. i prefer english
[21:12] <boabsta> TKtiddle: what does "df -h" show?
[21:12] <g0r3_0f_g0d> alex__c2022, the man zip command has the answer youre looking for
[21:13] <manohar> i have ubuntu 8.04LTS running. i want to install 10.04LTS after its release. My PC confuguration is 845 motherboard, 32bit Intel P4 2.4GHz, 512 RAM, no external graphics card(in-built present). Can i install 10.04. I had problem installing 8.10 before. So installed 8.04 back.
[21:13] <guntbert> bubulein: no problem - you are perfectly welcome here :-)
[21:13] <alex__c2022> g0r3_0f_g0d: I looked there, based on read the man page there seems to be no way to do it
[21:13] <g0r3_0f_g0d> alex__c2022, i'd repack the lot in one directory with -r option by looking at the man
[21:14] <g0r3_0f_g0d> make structure i want to achieve first and then pack like zip -r foo.zip .
[21:14] <g0r3_0f_g0d> or something
[21:14] <sab> barbarella, if i want to install skype from cli,then how to do that?
[21:14] <boabsta> manohar: i'd reccomend getting another 1G RAM or installing the server version with a lightweight desktop
[21:14] <barbarella> manohar:what was the problem with 8.10?
[21:15] <alex__c2022> g0r3_0f_g0d: yea, i figured that would be the only option
[21:15] <amosek> sab: sudo apt-get install skype
[21:15] <g0r3_0f_g0d> alex__c2022, yeah seems like it , don't think there's much point wasting time trying to become zip command line guru :)
[21:16] <TKtiddle> boabsta: dev/sda1 mounted on / use 100%; dev/sdb1 mounted on /home use 5%
[21:16] <g0r3_0f_g0d> but i'm not sure if xarchiver coldn't do the job for you , like open up the zip and try to mane new directory in it
[21:16] <manohar> barbarella: after installing 8.10 i was not able to login after entering username and password. My keyboard freezed and monitor went blank.
[21:16] <boabsta> manohar: i've tried running a desktop with 512MB (think it was 8.10) and it ran like a complete dog
[21:16] <sab> amosek, i was trying to install skype from cli and got this error...http://paste.ubuntu.com/419446/
[21:17] <boabsta> TKtiddle: how gig are your drives?

[21:19] <boabsta> bubulein: sorry was a joke
[21:19] <guntbert> sab: are we talking about 9.10 or 10.04 now? the sources.list is different
[21:19] <manohar> boabsta: but i had problem as mentioned above wid 8.10 but after installing 8.04 back it is running like a tiger.

[21:19] <bubulein> boabsta, for me there is no alternativ to unix on a server
[21:19] <kanzie> anyone here familiar with Filezilla error: "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server".
[21:19] <LucidGuy> Correct me if Im wrong but simply outputing text via "&> filename" will cause all stderr and stdout to goto filename?
[21:19] <sab> amosek, i m new in linux dont even know what is medibuntu,tell me how to install
[21:19] <bubulein> boabsta, unix == solaris == bsd
[21:19] <boabsta> bubulein: i agree :)
[21:19] <sab> guntbert, 10.04
[21:20] <g0r3_0f_g0d> LucidGuy, think that's 2&1> filename

[21:20] <amosek> sab: goto http://www.skype.com/intl/en-gb/download/skype/linux/choose/ and then save the .deb file
[21:21] <bubulein> guntbert, sorry no war. i just want to say that im using linux on my desktop an not on my several servers
[21:21] <guntbert> sab: you've been told several times that 10.04 support is to be found in #ubuntu+1 - don't mix those up please
[21:21] <venom> I need yo know how to run fbsplash on ubuntu 9.04
[21:21] <amosek> sab: next go to cli and run sudo dpkg -i <downloaded_deb_file> this should do

[21:22] <spilak> :-D
[21:22] <spilak> ok
[21:22] <guntbert> sab: that leads to trouble - please keep those questions to #ubuntu+1
[21:22] <spilak> but I can't find wacomcpl
[21:22] <bubulein> guntbert, no urgent - but i regonize it
[21:22] <boabsta> bubulein: have u checked alsamixer or equivalent?
[21:22] <TKtiddle> boabsta: its an eee, sda=4gb - 512swap;  sdb = 29gb
[21:23] <kanzie> "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server". <- filezilla... anyone knows? Other FTP-software works for the same connection, but not filezilla... tried on both the ubuntu and osx
[21:23] <bubulein> boabsta, yeah. checked the sttings. afail its a driver issue
[21:23] <spilak> it is not in my repository
[21:23] <guntbert> bubulein: no earnest sound experience here :-)
[21:23] <h00ver> i've got an eee701 too
[21:23] <venom> thanx anyway I'll try somewhere else
[21:24] <g0r3_0f_g0d> kanzie, wierd stuff , evey other ftp client works but filezilla?
[21:24] <TKtiddle> mines a 900 someone was chucking works good with notebook remix
[21:24] <kanzie> yep
[21:24] <boabsta> bubulein: raaaarg sound issues on Linux - raaaarg!! i'm afraid google and throwing objects off walls may be your best bet
[21:24] <dewman> does anyone know the status of packages.medibuntu.com?
[21:24] <realcoolguy> I guess I should ask [since someone else brought up the topic of audio], but has the pulseaudio issues been worked out on Ubuntu?  (I still find an application not able to use sound, and I end up doing a killall pulseaudio, then relaunching the app, then sound works fine).
[21:24] <kanzie> g0r3_0f_g0d: its so weird... on osx Im running Transmit and Filezilla... Transmit is connecting fine, filezilla get "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server".
[21:24] <g0r3_0f_g0d> kanzie , on the same box ? i mean from the same box
[21:24] <bubulein> Let Me Explain: i was listen to my music on FreeBSD Cli via nfs/cifs/sshfs an it sound better then on linux. currently i had a bbq an need some more power on my headphones. so i regonize it
[21:24] <dbernar1> I'm trying to set up samba as a domain controller. I was following https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/samba-dc.html and my windows client can not see my server.
[21:24] <kanzie> starting it on my ubuntu (where I want it to run) I get the very same "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server".
[21:24] <stopsign> anyone tryed edubuntu with your kids?
[21:25] <h00ver> i can't find eeecontrol 0.2 for mine nowhere
[21:25] <dbernar1> Well, my client can not see my PDC.
[21:25] <dbernar1> My domain
[21:25] <ech0HTPC> :( for some reason i can't drag any windows over to the next desktop
[21:25] <boabsta> bubulein: so you do get sound on linux - just not loud enough?
[21:25] <kanzie> g0r3_0f_g0d: so on the osx one ftp app works, not filezilla, on the ubuntu I have same issues
[21:25]  * bubulein think that the linux soundsystem is ... strange
[21:25] <bubulein> boabsta, yes
[21:26] <h00ver> it's really wierd yea
[21:26] <g0r3_0f_g0d> kanzie, is the filezilla somehow using passive mode or port set wrong?
[21:26] <boabsta> bubulein: sorry, sounds weird - if your volume levels are turned up max in alsamixer (or whatever) then i'm stuck
[21:26] <kanzie> g0r3_0f_g0d: the only thing I can think of is that it dont support ports >60000, this ftp Im trying to connect to is running on 61305
[21:26] <bubulein> boabsta, do u have a tip for me, a link or just a suggestion to help my self?
[21:27] <bubulein> boabsta, let me change the box, and verify my settings
[21:27] <kanzie> g0r3_0f_g0d: trying FOFF now
[21:27] <g0r3_0f_g0d> kanzie once you run it you can check if it actually reaches the prot by checking netsta -an from the other terminal , other than that it's a filezilla bug or support issue provided the other clients connect fine , like gftp
[21:27] <bubulein> boabsta, someone interrested inmy resoults or should i keep silent and life withe it?
[21:28] <g0r3_0f_g0d> the port seems unusual for a ftp server really
[21:28] <kanzie> g0r3_0f_g0d: it responds to fast to be a already established connection,I get the feeling it does not even set up a thread
[21:29] <oem> built this comp, installed a cdRW/dvd rom and tested it by playing an audio file from CD and placed a DVD into drive and viewed contents... this is standared and usely is suficiant.. but when i got the comp home and tried to play a DVD... got the error "Cannot mount volume. Unable to mount the volume 'ANGELS_AND_DEMONS'." under more info it said "mount: block device is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: wrong fstype, bad option, bad superblock on
[21:29] <oem> /dev/scd0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error"
[21:29] <g0r3_0f_g0d> you can see that kanzie with netstat -an while you try to connect , so like netstat -an | grep 61305
[21:29] <kanzie> g0r3_0f_g0d: checking
[21:29] <venom> anyone know how to install fbsplash ?! plz
[21:29] <linuxdumbooo> is there anyway right now from Broadcom 43xx wifi cards to use WPA networks?
[21:30] <g0r3_0f_g0d> should say estabilished , waiting or stuff

[21:31] <kanzie> g0r3_0f_g0d: nono, you dont understand, from the moment I press connect to the time I have the errormessage (and every debug-log message) 0.00000002 seconds pass
[21:32] <kanzie> g0r3_0f_g0d: there is no chance in hell I would be able to get to the terminal window and run a command
[21:32] <kanzie> g0r3_0f_g0d: hence I don't think it even gets beyond the app
[21:32] <amosek> kanzie: have you measured that? ;)
[21:32] <alexandro> iai pessoal
[21:32] <alexandro> blz
[21:33] <kanzie> but I tried FOFF now and it get "Could not connect to server" at about the same speed so it seems to be on OS level, strangely I get this error on OSX in Filezilla but not in Transmit
[21:33] <kanzie> amosek: indeed... I have a watch and counted seconds ;-)
[21:33] <g0r3_0f_g0d> kanzie, ok , if you really what to know let's dig deep , run it , in the other terminal run strace `ps -ef | grep filezilla | awk '{print $1}'`
[21:33] <CrOnOs__> Luther  i will install grub on sdb
[21:34] <g0r3_0f_g0d> that will give you the binary output of that is really going on
[21:34] <g0r3_0f_g0d> with that open up the bug in filezilla bugtraq

[21:36] <StephenWins> lol
[21:37] <h00ver> there must be a background of things you did
[21:37] <StephenWins> okie
[21:37] <Grafter> more info: oem@freekbox:~$ dmesg | tail  returned: [ 2105.580190] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [dddacf18] 'on' <- wtf?
[21:37] <linuxdumbooo> is there anyway to set the shortcut of Run command to windows key + R?
[21:37] <h00ver> before you got that problem, so state the problem more detailed or something
[21:37] <hypnosis> how do i access the grub prompt?
[21:37] <g0r3_0f_g0d> right ladies , off to bed with me , been nice to see some n00bs and gurus , ttfn , i might get regular on here
[21:37] <linuxdumbooo> i binded windows key to start application but windows + R doesnt work
[21:38] <StephenWins> h00ver, it's been happening for a few weeks now
[21:38] <StephenWins> I don't know what I did to start it
[21:38] <hypnosis> anyone want to tell me ? :)
[21:38] <q__> nope
[21:38] <g0r3_0f_g0d> btw , what's the lucid channel name again?
[21:38] <hypnosis> anyone know how to boot into grub's prompt? :)
[21:38] <h00ver> StephenWins, have you tried to remove all packages causing problems so far?
[21:38] <g0r3_0f_g0d> ubuntu+1 or something?
[21:38] <hypnosis> sigh.
[21:38] <stephen> join /#xen
[21:38] <amosek> g0r3_0f_g0d: yes
[21:39] <h00ver> ..and reinstall them?
[21:39] <amosek> hypnosis: run grub from console?
[21:39] <rww> hypnosis: which version of Ubuntu are you using?
[21:39] <g0r3_0f_g0d> cool , ok gotta go
[21:39] <thevishy> how do I make sure the battery icon is there on my taskbar ?
[21:39] <h00ver> every time when somethings wrong with that deb package managing thing, i do so, idk
[21:39] <bastid_raZor> linuxdumbooo: System > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts
[21:40] <linuxdumbooo> i tried
[21:40] <linuxdumbooo> it doesnt work
[21:40] <hypnosis> rww: 9.10
[21:40] <hypnosis> amosek: I want to access the grub prompt when I boot up.
[21:40] <linuxdumbooo> it just shows up the application menu
[21:40] <hypnosis> something else (something more serious is the matter) and I can't figure out how to boot into the prompt.
[21:40] <bastid_raZor> linuxdumbooo: under Desktop change Show the Panels 'Run Aplication" dialog box
[21:40] <hypnosis> This is grub2.
[21:40] <hypnosis> ESC doesn't do anything.
[21:40] <bastid_raZor> hypnosis: hold shift
[21:40] <rww> hypnosis: try shift
[21:41] <znxtch> If I'm only going to use one Language on my computer can I remove the Language Support package that comes installed with Ubuntu?
[21:41] <h00ver> okay since that are dependency problems, you could have updated from a inofficial repository somewhere in the past
[21:41] <thevishy> .join #ubuntu+1
[21:42] <weekly> is there a better way to compare 2 directories besides diff -r?
[21:42] <h00ver> oh geez, he is no more up.. i'm still babbling..:)
[21:42] <POVaddct> weekly: what's wrong with with diff -r?
[21:42] <boabsta> weekly: not sure but try vimdiff
[21:42] <rww> znxtch: language-support-XX packages contain spelling software and other support packages, not language switching software. You only need the one for the language you want to use.
[21:42] <weekly> POVaddct nothing just looking for more options
[21:43] <linuxdumbooo> bastid_raZor: thanks a lot!
[21:43] <znxtch> oh okay tracking
[21:43] <linuxdumbooo> @bastid_raZor: thanks a lot
[21:43] <weekly> boabsta thanks
[21:43] <bastid_raZor> linuxdumbooo: :) just had to find the right one to change.
[21:43] <boabsta> weekly: i've never tried with that so dunno....
[21:44] <POVaddct> weekly: diff -Nru dir1 dir2 | view -    (where view is from full vim installation with syntax highlighting)
[21:44] <znxtch> Okay last question, I played with advanced Compiz effects.    Now when I minize windows they still do the crazy "wiggly minize" effect.  Does anyone know how I can return the system to its default display effects settings?
[21:44] <antibody> !clone
[21:44] <linuxdumbooo> now if i could figure out a way to run WPA networks on broadcom wifi cards that d be great
[21:44] <mr_fribble> Is it safe to upgrade in the root account?
[21:44] <LzrdKing> oops, i killed my sound AND knocked the box off the network
[21:45] <LzrdKing> mr_fribble: you have to be root to upgrade
[21:45] <boabsta> mr_fribble: it is advised to not have a root login and use sudo instead
[21:45] <mr_fribble> I ask because after I upgraded to 9.10 from 9.04 it got corrupted?
[21:45] <kanzie> g0nz0|Boston: hmm, cant get strace to run your line
[21:45] <kanzie> :-)
[21:45] <amosek> mr_fribble:
[21:45] <kanzie> fiddeling with it now
[21:46] <LzrdKing> thats what i mean, elevate privileges with sudo
[21:46] <amosek> mr_fribble: corrupted?
[21:47] <nemo> Does anyone here happen to know of an up-to-date walkthrough on getting vnc4server to work?
[21:47] <nemo> my attempts at using the ones on forum and bug reports have been less than successful
[21:47] <Jordan_U> nemo: Just use vino, it's built in and dead simple to enable.
[21:47] <nemo> Jordan_U: useless for headless
[21:47] <kanzie> g0nz0|Boston:  might need -p with the trace
[21:47] <Jordan_U> nemo: Ahh.
[21:47] <nemo> Jordan_U: xtightvnc's server works btw.
[21:47] <nemo> Jordan_U: but I wanted to get things working w/ xinetd
[21:47] <nemo> so I don't have to ssh in first to start it up
[21:48] <Luther> How do you change the DNS address for a network?
[21:48] <yablonda> psmbfuer, what is happening?
[21:48] <nemo> Jordan_U: remmina and XDMCP also work - although insecure. unfortunately ubuntu doesn't package xqproxy yet
[21:49] <tomatto_> how to do liveusb from livecd kubuntu?
[21:49] <nemo> and of course all of these have issues w/ authentication now, something gnome seems determined to break for ssh -Y/XDMCP/vnc
[21:49] <nemo> presumably related to how X is being started for those *shrug*
[21:49] <needhelp> :)
[21:49] <Luther> whoops
[21:50] <znxtch> Okay last question, I played with advanced Compiz effects.    Now when I minize windows they still do the crazy "wiggly minize" effect.  Does anyone know how I can return the system to its default display effects settings?
[21:50] <Jordan_U> nemo: You should use ssh -X instead of -Y so that X11 traffic is encrypted also.
[21:50] <nemo> Jordan_U: uh....
[21:50] <Luther> How do you change the DNS for a network?
[21:50] <boabsta> Luther: check /etc/resolv.conf
[21:50] <nemo> Jordan_U: the X11 traffic is encrypted w/ both
[21:50] <nemo> Jordan_U: is just trusted vs non
[21:50] <Laserbeak43> hello
[21:50] <nemo> not that it helps gnome
[21:50] <Laserbeak43> can somoen help me with this?
[21:50] <Laserbeak43> http://pastebin.com/LK0Y4JWb
[21:50] <needhelp> Can anyone explain me why pendrive automount stopped working?
[21:51] <Jordan_U> nemo: Sorry, misremembering I guess.
[21:51] <RikFshr> Hell-O everyone
[21:51] <RikFshr> OK here's my boot issue
[21:51] <RikFshr> Win 7 and Ubuntu 9.10 on a single drive
[21:51] <RikFshr>  I was able to boot both then lost Ubuntu
[21:51] <RikFshr>  Ran Super Grub .9799 and now can only boot Ubuntu
[21:51] <FloodBot4> RikFshr: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:51] <RikFshr>  I used Super Grub to boot into Winerz but Sudo update-grub doesn't find the winderz install
[21:51] <nemo> Jordan_U: ssh -Y is needed also for a ton of gnome apps.
[21:51] <bubulein> needhelp, can u explain that
[21:51] <psmbfuer> znxtch, so you have simple compizconfig settings manager installed.
[21:51] <nemo> still useless for things like gdmsetup or account management or basically anything that uses the new auth kit
[21:51] <soreau> znxtch: ccsm>Preferences>Reset to Defaults
[21:52] <psmbfuer> is so, go to the Effects tab and uncheck "Enable Wobbly"
[21:52] <needhelp> bubulein, the pendrive is fine, it's a kingston and it's ntfs formatted. ubuntu did auto mount it before but all the sudent it stopped working. how can i fix this
[21:52] <soreau> znxtch: Also if you select Normal or Extra in the visual effects menu, it will use a predefined set of effects
[21:52] <boabsta> Luther: are u changing from DHCP to static?
[21:52] <znxtch> i tried that
[21:52] <znxtch> didnt work
[21:53] <Luther> boabsta:  not sure, not really a power-user, just trying to change DNS to <IP_ADDRESS> (Google DNS)
[21:53] <bubulein> needhelp, are u familar with the cli?
[21:53] <soreau> ! work | znxtch
[21:53] <needhelp> terminal?
[21:53] <geoff_> Hi.  I have recently upgraded to Karmic on a desktop.  Three times now the system wont resume after idling.
[21:53] <nemo> Jordan_U: settled on manually starting xtightvnc server for now, and also using xqproxy/remina/XDMCP combo
[21:53] <needhelp> bubulein, terminal?
[21:53] <boabsta> needhelp: its pointless having NTFS for a USB stick - go with fat32 instead
[21:53] <Micheal`> is there a good way to be able to read and/or format a cisco flash ram card in 91.0?
[21:53] <RikFshr> Hello everyone
[21:53] <Micheal`> 9.10**
[21:54] <boabsta> Luther: not familiar with <IP_ADDRESS> - where did you get that from?
[21:54] <needhelp> not for me because i put movies in there with more than 4gb.
[21:54] <RikFshr> I have question about dual boot problem
[21:54] <needhelp> but the format is not the problem.. it's a ubuntu problem
[21:54] <Luther> boabsta:  It's Google's Public DNS
[21:54] <znxtch> I seletced normal in the appearance settings. everything is back to normal but the windows still use an efect when minimizing that isnt the default
[21:54] <RikFshr> Win 7 and Ubuntu 9.10 on single drive
[21:54] <nemo> Jordan_U: BTW. gnome also screws up keymaps w/ xtightvnc, so is necessary to set XKL_XMODMAP_DISABLE=1
[21:54] <geoff_> I have seen on the forums this happening with laptops.  Any ideas about desktops?
[21:54] <POVaddct> needhelp: ntfs can only be mounted by ntfs-3g if it is in a clean state. check the pendrive from windows with "correct errors automatically"-box checked. remember, ntfs is not the native linux filesystem and not well documented.
[21:54] <bubulein> needhelp,  see privat chat
[21:54] <needhelp> yes
[21:55] <bmorris> Hey everybody,  I was able t set up a SOCKS proxy with ssh -D but I can't get it to work with SSL traffic. Is there something special that I need to do for that?
[21:55] <RikFshr> Used Super Grub 0.9799 to fix Ubuntu boot problem and now Grub won't boot Windoze 7
[21:55] <boabsta> Luther: k, didnt know that, not sure if you are using DHCP but you can change to use static internal IPs easily - see http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html for a quick/easy guide
[21:56] <boabsta> Luther: just backup files before editing ;)
[21:56] <BluesKaj> RikFshr, did you do , sudo update-grub afterwards
[21:56] <RikFshr> Any easy solution to restore windoze 7 to Grub boot options?
[21:56] <RikFshr> BluesKaj yes I did
[21:57] <Luther> Let's see if this install worked....
[21:57] <techieBrandon> Anyone a Xserver pro???
[21:58] <techieBrandon> I've got a stumper with my display resolution. Probably easy for someone experienced...
[21:58] <nemo> oh well. one last try. vnc4server - anyone here managed to get it working in karmic?
[21:58] <BluesKaj> RikFshr, i have to state the obvious, but sometimes the windows option becomes hidden at the bottom when there are too many old kernels filling up the the boot menu
[21:58] <Grafter> built this comp with ubuntu 8.04.2, installed a cdRW/dvd rom and tested it by playing an audio file from CD and placed a DVD into drive and viewed contents... this is standard and usely is suficiant.. but when i got the comp home and tried to play a DVD... got the error: "Cannot mount volume. Unable to mount the volume 'video_name'." under more info it said "mount: block device is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: wrong fstype, bad option, bad
[21:58] <Grafter> superblock on /dev/scd0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error" did "dmesg | tail" and got: [ 2105.580190] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [dddacf18] 'on' searched forums and google.. found same question but for external drives.. no answers... and mine is internal, anyone have any ideas? i am strapped :/

[22:13] <techieBrandon> I'm looking for someone that has some experience with xserver. My current display max resolution is 1366x768 but xrandr shows it can go bigger. Does this mean it IS possible to get a larger resolution?
[22:13] <Guest34998> is there any super certain way to make a live usb besides using usb creator and other gui stufF??
[22:13] <boabsta> Lenin_Cat: hdparm lets you change/tweak all sorts of HD stuff
[22:13] <boabsta> Lenin_Cat: dont know if there is a GUI for it
[22:13] <Guest34998> i ve tried several times and i always get that the operating system is missing...

[22:15] <CryptIce7> when i select "Connect a host virtual adapter to this network" mean?
[22:15] <h00k> git__: "switched out of http" ?
[22:15] <boabsta> running_rabbit07: it has a filter helper that you can use for TCP dump from CLI
[22:15] <running_rabbit07> boabsta, thanx I'll check it out
[22:16] <git__> h00k, there's no http in front of url

[22:16] <CryptIce7> what does "Connect a host virtual adapter to this network" mean?

[22:17] <bodom> Hi there, what's the way to tell cron-apt to just update and not download packages?
[22:17] <git__> is there a way to bring back "http" on chrome?
[22:18] <boabsta> Lenin_Cat: doesnt sound like a HD issue, does sound serious tho, have you ran a memory checker?
[22:18] <brummbaer> techieBrandon, you should be able to add it to the list of modules to load
[22:18] <h00k> git__: It is using http, it just doesn't show you that part of the URL.  nothing changes as far as functionality
[22:18] <Lenin_Cat> boabsta, yes, and my memory is damaged
[22:18] <rafaelsoaresbr> how to remove these massagens in empathy: someone joined...?
[22:18] <Lenin_Cat> so I want to disable the buffer cache
[22:18] <git__> h00k, is there an option to bring back http?
[22:18] <Klevi> git__, its not there? if its not it shouldnt matter, you'll stil be able to display pages. Chromes probably just hiding it
[22:19] <Klevi> *shrugs* not sure, ive never seen that before, check options?
[22:19] <znxtch> I'm trying to return my window minimize/mazimize effect to the system default.  Right now they are doing  very fast shimmying effect and then "zipping" the the bottom of the screen.
[22:19] <YuviPanda_> git__: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=41467 -> http:// hidden by design
[22:19] <boabsta> Lenin_Cat: your disk cache is nothing to do with memory being dodgy
[22:19] <h00k> git__: perhaps, I'm not sure.  Like I said, it's still *using* http, that's how...it works. It just doesn't show that
[22:19] <Lenin_Cat> boabsta, I mean the cached stuff in the ram
[22:19] <git__> i did a ubuntu update, and now my google chrome is all mess up
[22:19] <h00k> znxtch: for Lucid discussion, please head to #ubuntu+1
[22:20] <boabsta> Lenin_Cat: if you are getting memory problems (RAM) then your screwed tbh - get new RAM
[22:20] <KB1JWQ> git__: Define messe dup.
[22:20] <exigraff> git__: one of the underpinning concepts behind chrome/chromium is to keep things clean. you don't need to see the 'http://' bit, so it's hidden.
[22:20] <boabsta> Lenin_Cat: where does it say its your HD cache mem?
[22:20] <Lenin_Cat> boabsta, you dont get it, when I clear my memory cache I get less segment faults
[22:20] <Ahmed\> i have some problem with Ktorrent and transmission, they just DONT downlaod Torrent @_@
[22:20] <Lenin_Cat> when my ram is very cached
[22:20] <Carlis> hi
[22:20] <Lenin_Cat> it gets more
[22:20] <Lenin_Cat> so I want to disable it
[22:20] <boabsta> Lenin_Cat: what memory cache are you talking about?
[22:20] <Ahmed\> carlis: hi
[22:20] <Lenin_Cat> I believe its buffer?
[22:21] <Grafter> techieBrandon:  modprobe -r wl than gksudo gedit /etc/modules and add wl to the end of it
[22:21] <Carlis> How do i remove a msi file installed with wine ?
[22:21] <Consul_Falx> okey folks
[22:21] <Consul_Falx> gparted installed, what next?
[22:21] <Carlis> hi
[22:21] <boabsta> Lenin_Cat: have you ran memtest?
[22:21] <Ahmed\> carlis: can you help me
[22:21] <Ahmed\> PM me
[22:21] <h00k> !pm | Ahmed\
[22:21] <Lenin_Cat> the one this command clears: sync && sudo sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=3 && sudo sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=0
[22:21] <Carlis> I dont know
[22:21] <Carlis> just ask
[22:21] <Lenin_Cat> yes my memory is damaged
[22:21] <Lenin_Cat> but when I clear my cache I get less segment faults
[22:22] <Lenin_Cat> so I want to disable it
[22:22] <Ahmed\> i have some problem with Ktorrent and transmission, they just DONT downlaod Torrent @_@
[22:22] <boabsta> Lenin_Cat: if your memory is damaged bite the bullet mate
[22:22] <Lenin_Cat> boabsta, can I just disable it please.
[22:22] <Klevi> Ahmed\, sounds like a firewall probably blocking your connection. Are you going through a router?
[22:22] <Lenin_Cat> I get less segment faults with less cached memory
[22:23] <Ahmed\> Yeah i am, plus i have 2/3 firewalls and i dont even know how to use those (new user) so
[22:23] <boabsta> Lenin_Cat: if your memory is damaged you will spend eternity disabling stuf to try and sort it - just get good memory
[22:23] <Lenin_Cat> look
[22:23] <Lenin_Cat> when I have less cached memory I get less segment faults
[22:23] <Lenin_Cat> so just tell me how to disable it. -_-
[22:23] <KB1JWQ> Lenin_Cat: Fix your dodgy RAM? :-)
[22:23] <Lenin_Cat> it works when im on windows, I disable the memory cache and I never get memory related crashes
[22:24] <boabsta> if memtest is saying your RAM is bad then try un-plugging your RAM from the mother board that should sort it
[22:24] <Consul_Falx> boabsta:
[22:24] <halsafar> lol Lenin ram is cheap, go fix ur computer
[22:24] <Lenin_Cat> boabsta, because I know this works
[22:24] <Klevi> Correct me if im wrong, but won't disableing the ability for cacheing to the RAM increase traffic to the HD, slowing your system down?
[22:24] <Consul_Falx> I somehow don't get any opinion to format the drive
[22:24] <KB1JWQ> Expecting software to compensate for crappy hardware is fallacious.
[22:24] <Jaymac> guys, if anyone knows how to help him with his problem then it might be useful to tell him as opposed to harping on at him to buy new ram :)
[22:24] <Lenin_Cat> I could care less, because I would get less segment faults
[22:24] <Venker> hi people
[22:25] <h00k> Lenin_Cat: I don't think you can disable caching, as seen here: http://www.linuxatemyram.com/
[22:25] <boabsta> Lenin_Cat: did memtest say your memory is bad?
[22:25] <Lenin_Cat> yes
[22:25] <KB1JWQ> Lenin_Cat: What you want requires either a module or a rewrite of kernel code.
[22:26] <git__> i'm going back to Firefox
[22:26] <boabsta> Lenin_Cat: get new memory then otherwise you are screwed - your PC cant do jack without RAM to work with - gawd knows why Windows worls better with mad RAM - in my experience Windows dies as soon as any bit of it goes bad
[22:26] <Grafter> techieBrandon:  did that help?
[22:26] <jack__> thanks for the notification boabsta :P
[22:26] <Lenin_Cat> boabsta, well, if I run the windows memory test before each windows bootup, I dont get crashes
[22:26] <boabsta> jack__: ?
[22:26] <jack__> boabsta: !
[22:27] <boabsta> jack__: notification?
[22:27] <Klevi> you said his name
[22:27] <Klevi> jack
[22:27] <boabsta> aaah i see lol
[22:27] <Klevi> and he probably has it set to highlight
[22:27] <jack__> Klevi:
[22:27] <jack__> damn you
[22:27] <jack__> hehe
[22:27] <Klevi> OH NO RED
[22:27] <boabsta> sorry jack
[22:28] <boabsta> i wont say jack again
[22:28] <Klevi> >.>
[22:28] <jack__> thanks boabsta
[22:28] <jack__> haha
[22:28] <Klevi> Riight
[22:28] <boabsta> ok jack :)heehee
[22:28] <Consul_Falx> boabsta: there is something weird with the GParted
[22:28] <puff> Hey, I'm plugging this 500GB seagate drive into a USB enclosure. It's not showing up, I wouldn't be suprised if it's not formatted.
[22:28] <jack__> puff: does it show up in fdisk -l?
[22:28] <Consul_Falx> "unable to find mounting point" .. some operations may be unavailable
[22:28] <puff> The drive is a year or so old but has been sitting in a box, so.
[22:28] <boabsta> Consul_Falx: personally i dont like it - i prefer fdisk but i'm getting old
[22:28] <Klevi> but in all seriousness now. I have no idea why NBR isnt booting on my netbook period
[22:28] <Venker> sorry pals, sane only works with root, and there are users added in scanner and sane groups. I'm in Ubuntu Jaunty
[22:29] <kbzombie> sounds like a network problem
[22:29] <Consul_Falx> boabsta: well, I just need to reformat the sdb1 to fat32, it's all I need
[22:29] <puff> jack__: No, not on fdisk -l.
[22:29] <Venker> what ccould be the problem?
[22:29] <kbzombie> woa lag, dont mind me
[22:29] <boabsta> Consul_Falx: open a terminal and type "fdisk /dev/sdb" then type "m"| for help
[22:29] <puff> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/ycLqP825
[22:30] <Dawgmatix> in lucid the automounter is mounting ntfs disks in such a way that i cant change any permissions
[22:30] <puff> Not in lsusb output,either.
[22:30] <Dawgmatix> how do I fix that ?
[22:30] <Klevi> Heres what happens i either after loading into NBR i get a blinking cursor
[22:30] <Grafter> !lucid
[22:30] <Klevi> I fixed that by booting into Vesa manually from grub
[22:31] <Klevi> I get to the loading screen, and then i get something about network not initializing
[22:31] <Klevi> hangs after that
[22:33] <Consul_Falx> okay, it works now, it was just unintentionally mounted before
[22:33] <boabsta> Consul_Falx: onceyou have created/deleted partitions type "w" to save the partitions to your disk then type "mkdosfs -F 32 /dev/sdb1"
[22:33] <boabsta> Consul_Falx: you probably dont need fdisk/qparted at all actually
[22:33] <Klevi> boabsta, no idea?
[22:33] <mr_fribble> Hi, my ubuntu server is running now. But I am unable to get into the server as it shows "can't read /proc/devices" error.
[22:33] <Grafter> wow... i have found a problem i cant fix with wiki forums or IRC... lol cant find an answer anywhere! i didnt think that would be posible
[22:33] <mr_fribble> What does this mean and is it fixable?
[22:35] <Grafter> oi
[22:35] <Klevi> What is it Grafter
[22:36] <Grafter> DVD problem
[22:36] <Grafter> one sec
[22:36] <boabsta> Grafter: is this 10.4?
[22:36] <Grafter> built this comp with ubuntu 8.04.2, installed a cdRW/dvd rom and tested it by playing an audio file from CD and placed a DVD into drive and viewed contents... this is standard and usely is suficiant.. but when i got the comp home and tried to play a DVD... got the error: "Cannot mount volume. Unable to mount the volume 'video_name'." under more info it said "mount: block device is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: wrong fstype, bad option, bad
[22:36] <Grafter> superblock on /dev/scd0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error" did "dmesg | tail" and got: [ 2105.580190] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [dddacf18] 'on' searched forums and google.. found same question but for external drives.. no answers... and mine is internal, anyone have any ideas? i am strapped :/
[22:36] <Consul_Falx> boabsta: succeeded. yet I'd like to set up the volume's name if possible
[22:37] <boabsta> Consul_Falx: fdisk will do that, 2 secs
[22:37] <Grafter> boabsta: 8.04
[22:37] <Consul_Falx> how?
[22:39] <boabsta> Consul_Falx: hmm im not sure - dont usually bother with labels. m for help :)
[22:39] <boabsta> or go back to qparted
[22:39] <Klevi> how would i get grub to boot into safe gfx mode?
[22:39] <boabsta> Consul_Falx: what do you mean by "label" exactly just to be sure?
[22:40] <boabsta> Consul_Falx: *name even
[22:40] <pmitros> I want to compare two directory trees. I know that if the filenames match, the files are identical. Is there a way to do that? I don't want diff, since it'll compare the files, and the files are many MB each, and the trees are tens of GBs total, so it'll be slow.
[22:40] <puff> Hm, okay, sorted out why the new 500 GB drive wasn't show up.
[22:40] <puff> the USB hub wasn't working,s imple mechanical failure.
[22:40] <puff> So... now I have it showing up in fdiskb ut not automounted, I highly suspect it's unformatted.
[22:41] <Consul_Falx> boabsta: the name :) my flash disk is labeled vladuj-data and hence it's defaultly mounted into /media/vladuj-data/
[22:41] <Klevi> nevermind, forcing it to boot with vga=800x600x32 works to get it to boot
[22:41] <Klevi> but i still have that networking error
[22:41] <Consul_Falx> this mounts after UUID, since I didn't know how to set up the label via gparted
[22:43] <boabsta> Consul_Falx: mounts after UUID? not sure what you mean, specifying UUID in fstab doesnt work?
[22:44] <desdaja> How can I get the subwoofer of my Teufel 5.1 speaker system working in Ubuntu 9.10? Soundcard is an audigy 2 zs. The regular surround sound works, just not the sub. Thanks.
[22:44] <puff> Okay, so "sudo fdisk -l" says this 500GB disk has no partition table; gparted (which lists it as 465GB) says it is "unallocated".
[22:44] <perhamlinux> hi. is there a way to upgrade and install some packages using apt at the same time? I mean, do a apt-get upgrade and apt-get install [some_packages]  with a single command (and not using &&)
[22:44] <boabsta> puff: u need to partition the drive then format each partition
[22:44] <puff> Anything else I can do to make sure there's nothing on it, before I partition it?
[22:44] <Consul_Falx> yes. i just run the format and the disk is now prepared and identified by UUID
[22:45] <boabsta> puff: unless you have funky software - if there are no partitions on it then consider it blank :)
[22:45] <boabsta> Consul_Falx: do you know the UUID?
[22:45] <Consul_Falx> i think I even managed to relabel it
[22:46] <sab> i m using lucid,newly installed;when i was trying to watch youtube it was not working,then tried to install missing plugin but was giving me "no plugin found"
[22:46] <Consul_Falx> thank you for the attendance :)
[22:46] <perhamlinux> sab: run this command in a terminal : sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted extras
[22:47] <perhamlinux> sab: that's ubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:47] <alex__c2022> how does the -g argument work for zip command? the manual is pretty skimpy on examples
[22:48] <boabsta> i've fired a couple of 9.10 (i think) on a couple of boxes for other folk and the restriced extras was a breeze to get intalled - IIRC there was basically an icon to install them - ubuntu rocks :)
[22:48] <boabsta> Consul_Falx: np
[22:48] <Grafter> ok i think i have no choice but to give up and get another cdrw/dvd rom hehe
[22:49] <alessio> ciao a tutti
[22:49] <borges> hello, can someone help with nvidia?
[22:49] <Faratl> hello
[22:49] <solid_liq> borges, I don't know, can you?
[22:49] <solid_liq> !ask borges
[22:49] <borges> i need :P
[22:49] <solid_liq> !tell borges ask
[22:50] <solid_liq> !ask
[22:50] <Hariharakadan> oopsie.
[22:50] <Faratl> is there a program to convert exe to deb
[22:50] <solid_liq> borges, ^^
[22:50] <Grafter> 1ask | borges
[22:50] <perhamlinux> !ask | borges
[22:50] <ZykoticK9> solid_liq, you need to use a | to address things to people like "!ask | borger"
[22:50] <KB1JWQ> Faratl: It doesn't even begin to work that way. :-)
[22:50] <Faratl> ??
[22:50] <borges> ok sorry
[22:50] <Faratl> ok.
[22:50] <solid_liq> ZykoticK9, oh okay thanks.  I couldn't remember how to do that  heh
[22:51] <KB1JWQ> !wine | Faratl
[22:51] <puff> So, I have this 500GB drive in a USB enclosure.  I need to partition it.  I'd originally planned to use it to buff out a tivo box, but at the moment I want to use it to back up my laptop so I can repartition, reinstall and etc.  What fstype do you suggest, ntfs, ext2?
[22:51] <alessio> qualcuno mi puo aiutare come fare per verificare l'hardware?
[22:51] <ZykoticK9> !es | alessio
[22:51] <KB1JWQ> puff: ext3 or 4 should be fine.
[22:51] <Faratl> I use wine but some windows programs are not compatible with it.
[22:51] <alessio> ok
[22:51] <KB1JWQ> Faratl: If it doesn't run in wine it likely won't work in Linux.
[22:51] <perhamlinux> puff: ext3 is very stable, if you only need that
[22:51] <alessio> vado ciao
[22:52] <Faratl> What about crossover?
[22:53] <Grafter> Faratl:  you would have to re-write the source completely
[22:53] <perhamlinux> Faratl: everything else is also based on wine. you can try virtualbox to install windows inside a virtual machine if you badly need windows
[22:53] <borges> i use nvidia driver version  185'. my card is geforce 8400gs and i use ubuntu 9.10. my screen is a 17" and my high resolution on ubuntu and other distros is 1158x864 but i want 1280x960. i cant write on xorg any configuration from the NVIDIA X Server settings even as root, allways i restart my pc my resolution goes to 1024x768. need help
[22:53] <puff> KB1JWQ, perhamlinux, mainly I'm thinking about two things.  1) what is best for backing up, obviously ext3 is what I have now so ext3 is the simplest choice, 2) I'd like to be able to sneakernet bulk data to other machines,including windows and macs.  So, I guess ntfs, but would that cause any problems in doing backups?
[22:54] <perhamlinux> puff: there is a system driver for reading ext3 filesystems on windows. google ext2ifs
[22:54] <ZykoticK9> puff, you will love the linux permissions on files when copying to ntfs - but if that's not an issue, it *should* be fine.
[22:54] <borges> my screen is CRT not  LCD
[22:54] <ZykoticK9> puff, s/love/lose
[22:55] <perhamlinux> puff: and as ZykoticK9 says, ntfs is also very usable. I'm using it daily as a storage filesystem which is shared between my ubuntu and my windows and found no problem with it. both OSs write on it regularly without any problems
[22:55] <splash> #ubuntu-es
[22:58] <jack__> puff: if fdisk -l doesn't see it, the machine doesn't see it
[22:58] <jack__> sorry for the late response
[22:58] <Yoshario> I can't open a program
[22:59] <Yoshario> Something's wrong
[22:59] <NinoScript> Is it possible to make a custom keyboard layout without xmodmap?
[22:59] <jack__> Yoshario: are you using windows?
[22:59] <Yoshario> I did makeinstall, configure, install, and that stuff
[22:59] <Yoshario> I am using Ubuntu :)
[22:59] <calum> I have a web server (Apache) running on localhost (<IP_ADDRESS>). How do I add a php file to the server so that it can run php code? I am using Apache 2 on Ubuntu 9.04
[22:59] <Yoshario> And when I click it nothing happens
[22:59] <jack__> calum: i thought apache2 came with php by default
[22:59] <Yoshario> And I have the permissions to do it too
[23:00] <Yoshario> So, what's happening there?
[23:00] <jack__> Yoshario: try in command line
[23:00] <h00k> Yoshario: try to keep things all on one line, too
[23:00] <Yoshario> jack__, how would I do that?
[23:00] <Yoshario> h00k, Okay.
[23:00] <calum> jack__: I installed php5 with apache module. I presume it does. But I want to know how to get php code to run on an Apache web page
[23:00] <jack__> Yoshario: open terminal and tehn type the full path to the file
[23:00] <jack__> calum: try adding a php.php file in yoru web directory
[23:01] <calum> jack__:That being the www file in /etc/apache2 I guess?
[23:01] <jack__> calum: in the file add <? phpinfo() ?>
[23:01] <jack__> calum: i think the default is /var/www
[23:01] <matyy> Hey, I cannot open any picture files in gscan2pdf - it says the imagetype is not recognised - and I have no idea why, no google results. Sometimes it stops with a segfault, when I press the import button.
[23:02] <calum> jack__:Basically it connects to a mysql database. So I put that file in var/www and it should work?
[23:02] <Yoshario> [Tue 20 Apr 18:01:27] - can't chdir to /home/*censored*/.muh/!
[23:02] <Yoshario> [Tue 20 Apr 18:01:27] - terminating...
[23:02] <jack__> calum: Why do you mean?
[23:02] <matyy> It seems I am the only one having this problem, and I can't find anything to solve it. I want to open a pdf, crop stuff, use unpaper, exchange some pages - I used to do thjis with gscan2pdf - now I cannot - any alternative program?
[23:02] <jack__> Yoshario: there is your problem
[23:02] <Yoshario> So how do I fix it/
[23:03] <droid7> hello
[23:03] <calum> jack__:The php file I want to run on Apache connects to a database which Apache is running with MYSQL server. The file opens the database using php code
[23:04] <Faratl> Anyone know where i can download virtual box?
[23:04] <MK13> faratl, the OSE or non-OSE?
[23:04] <nhandler> Faratl: Check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox
[23:04] <Yoshario> OK, so I created the .muh file, but I still get an error.
[23:04] <Yoshario> *folder
[23:04] <calum> Faratl: sudo apt-get install virtualbox in terminal
[23:05] <Faratl> non-ose
[23:05] <jack__> calum: tset it with the code ig ave you first
[23:05] <calum> The non-ose version can be downloaded from www.virtualbox.org
[23:05] <jack__> Yoshario: the .muh is probably a folder
[23:05] <ZykoticK9> Faratl, http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
[23:05] <Yoshario> jack__: I created it. I still get an error, though.
[23:06] <jack__> What application is this?
[23:06] <Yoshario> muh
[23:06] <calum> jack__:Thanks, I will give it a try.
[23:06] <Pici> !who
[23:06] <jack__> Yoshario: you should try the muh channel :P

[23:08] <jack__> agliodbs: try the forums
[23:08] <tomatto_> jack__: must be ext4 or can be vfat?
[23:08] <agliodbs> jack__: which ones?
[23:08] <jack__> tomatto_: it hink it can be in vfat
[23:08] <tomatto_> ext4/ext
[23:08] <jack__> agliodbs: the ubuntu forums
[23:08] <jack__> tomatto_: i think you have to force a thumb drive to be formmatted in anything but vfat
[23:09] <tomatto_> jack__: how can i install isolinux?

[23:09] <yaaar> hi guys. i installed 9.10 on a friend's laptop (HP pavillion dv6000) but it won't boot. I get the grub prompt, but all options (once I take out 'quiet' from the kernel line) result in "error: couldn't open file" ...I googled a bit and found some people (none with an identical error) suggesting adding "noapic nolapic" to the options, but that didn't change anything. Any ideas on what I should do?

[23:12] <Faratl> What is the difference between virtual box OSE and non-OSE
