[16:46] <switch10_> drtomdanger: yeah im sure you noticed, it takes a little longer to sync...
[16:47] <teurastaja> hey
[16:48] <teurastaja> how do i check my driver on an agp slot?
[16:48] <drtomdanger> switch10_: I originally just had the libpod packages installed.  when I went through and finally got libimobile and ran the config with fuse (had to find and install ifuse), I'm just happy to have it recognize - now I can start patching on functionality.
[16:48] <maxwell> hello
[16:48] <bondiblueos9> hi
[16:48] <researcher1> when I click e at boot menu I can edit grub but how to save it before booting?
[16:48] <teurastaja> i think theres a *pci* command or something
[16:49] <teurastaja> reseracher you have to edit grub.conf
[16:49] <h00k> !grub | researcher1
[16:49] <IdleOne> researcher1: at the bottom of the screen there should be a list of commands
[16:50] <IdleOne> I think you just ESC to exit/save not sure though
[16:50] <teurastaja> idle he wants to save his config unless ubuntu behaves differently he needs to edit grub.conf
[16:51] <IdleOne> teurastaja: not with grub2 see !grub2
[16:51] <teurastaja> is it still beta?
[16:51] <maxwell> I have a problem with my ubuntu server. I want to use my ubuntu server as a vpn. I installed pptpd and I configurated it. With my windows7 pc i can connect to the vpn server, but I can only access lan adresses like http://<IP_ADDRESS>   The problem is that I can not connect to internet websites. Could you kindly help me?
[16:51] <researcher1> IdleOne: yes there is but it does not Save
[16:51] <IdleOne> umm yeah I guess it is
[16:51] <itguru> Is it possible to get my laptop to broadcast the same netbios name regardless of the network it's on - that way, my windows boxes can always find it, whatever net i'm on, right?
[16:51] <IdleOne> researcher1: see the link ubottu sent you for more info
[16:52] <h00k> researcher1: to save, you have to edit the grub configuration files, see the links above or /msg ubottu !grub or !grub2
[16:52] <gmatt00> what shell is it that is really minimal?
[16:52] <bondiblueos9> do I need to erase a tape before I write to it?
[16:52] <researcher1> h00k: How do I msg ubottu?
[16:52] <teurastaja> gmatt sh
[16:52] <bondiblueos9> can I just rewind it and then tar to it? I'm only planning to have one record on it
[16:53] <IdleOne> bondiblueos9: a tape?
[16:53] <gmatt00> well...gui...minimal
[16:53] <bondiblueos9> but am planning to overwrite it weekly (backup)
[16:53] <h00k> researcher1: you can type /msg ubottu [message here]
[16:53] <bondiblueos9> IdleOne: yes, a tape drive
[16:53] <IdleOne> bondiblueos9: I would think so
[16:53] <teurastaja> xterm i think is minimal but dont rely on me
[16:54] <teurastaja> idle
[16:54] <gmatt00> nvm
[16:54] <teurastaja> *idle would u happen to know how to check my agp  slot driver
[16:54] <gmatt00> like this: http://www.installos.com/images/slackware.jpg
[16:54] <IdleOne> teurastaja: does lspci list it?
[16:55] <wegandu> ikonia, i installed gtypist cant find it in the applications.. how to start it?
[16:55] <frxstrem> in the /etc/shadow file, what does ! and * in the password fields mean?
[16:55] <IdleOne> wegandu: it is a terminal client
[16:55] <wegandu> what is the ubuntu offtopic channel name?
[16:55] <teurastaja> gmatt thats console i dont get your point
[16:55] <IdleOne> #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:55] <wegandu> IdleOne, how do 0i use gtypist?
[16:55] <teurastaja> *konsole
[16:55] <IdleOne> wegandu: open a terminal and type gtypist

[16:57] <wegandu> IdleOne, thanks.. can it measure words per minute?
[16:57] <IdleOne> wegandu: I believe it does
[16:57] <drtomdanger> alright gentlemen, I have an interesting question.  If you use wireshark can you capture the external ip's of people you are connected to? i.e. does your ip go through the live or game servers before being distributed to other peers? (i know might be slightly off topic, but figured i'd ask)
[16:57] <drtomdanger> regarding xbox and their live service
[16:58] <wegandu> IdleOne, what is the off topic channel name?
[16:58] <teurastaja> lspci does list the controller but the driver is not listed
[16:58] <IdleOne> wegandu: #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:58] <drtomdanger> #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:58] <wegandu> IdleOne, thank you
[16:58] <IdleOne> teurastaja: sorry I can't help more
[16:59] <mhall119> so, I'm at an office with free WiFI
[16:59] <gnetux> hi everybody
[16:59] <teurastaja> maybe it just isnt installed
[16:59] <mhall119> using WPA2
[16:59] <mhall119> I can connect to the router, but I'm not getting a DHCP response from it
[16:59] <gnetux> need help with apt-get
[16:59] <mhall119> my wife's Vista laptop connects just fine
[16:59] <gnetux> please
[16:59] <mhall119> and when I guess a static IP, it works fine
[16:59] <IdleOne> gnetux: what exactly?
[17:00] <mhall119> anyone know what might be causing me to not get a DHCP response?
[17:00] <teurastaja> doesnt apt-get have a search or info subcommand like yum?
[17:00] <IdleOne> teurastaja: it does
[17:01] <teurastaja> what is it? its not in the doc and i dont have this option
[17:01] <gnetux> Errors were encountered while processing:
[17:01] <IdleOne> teurastaja: man pages are often cryptic, man apt
[17:01] <teurastaja> and listing apt* commands with tab doesnt yield interesting results
[17:01] <IdleOne> gnetux: what are you doing that gives that error?
[17:01] <gnetux>  /var/cache/apt/archives/ati-driver_9.5-bt2_i386.deb
[17:01] <gnetux> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[17:01] <gnetux> apt-get -f install doesn't work
[17:02] <gnetux> trying to install backtrack-ati
[17:02] <maxwell> I have a problem with my ubuntu server. I want to use my ubuntu server as a vpn. I installed pptpd and I configurated it. With my windows7 pc i can connect to the vpn server, but I can only access lan adresses like http://<IP_ADDRESS>   The problem is that I can not connect to internet websites. Could you kindly help me?
[17:02] <gnetux> once downloaded all packages it can't install ati-driver
[17:03] <frxstrem> is there an easy way to restart a program once it's closed automatically?
[17:04] <frxstrem> 'cause Pidgin seems to crash alot, and when it does I just want it to restart
[17:04] <bondiblueos9> can I use dd to write my partition to a tape device?
[17:05] <switch10_> frxstrem: killall pidgin && pidgin
[17:05] <teurastaja> or xkill
[17:06] <frxstrem> switch10_: I said, restart it *when it's closed* (not running after it crashes)
[17:06] <teurastaja> kill -HUP
[17:06] <switch10_> frxstrem: so you mean *start* it? restart would imply that it is running..
[17:07] <gnetux> IdleOne: Any idea
[17:07] <gnetux> ?
[17:07] <frxstrem> switch10_: well, it's kinda both ('cause it's running, then it closes and I want to start it again - restart it), but you get the point, right?
[17:07] <alabd> Good day all , how to make Right-to-left editing support on in openoffice.org writer ? when humble = i try to enabling it in toolbar it does not change
[17:08] <switch10_> frxstrem: instead of closing it manually run the command i posted.  it will kill it and then start it again..
[17:08] <mhall119> does anyone know what might be causing a wireless router to not give me a DHCP reponse?
[17:08] <IdleOne> gnetux: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a perhaps
[17:08] <frxstrem> switch10_: as I already said, I'm not closing it maunally, it crashes all the time (or maybe more like once every second hour or so) - that's why I want it to restart
[17:09] <DcMeese> mhall119: Is DHCP enabled? ;)
[17:09] <sipior> mhall119: it's configured to give licences only to certain mac addresses?
[17:09] <mhall119> DcMeese: yes, my wife's Vista laptop connected
[17:09] <DcMeese> mhall119: Is....it running Ubuntu?
[17:09] <mhall119> I just saw an iPhone get a DHCP response too
[17:10] <mhall119> DcMeese: my laptop is, I don't know what the router is running, it's not mine
[17:10] <researcher1> is it safe to edit grub.cfg? I want to delete quiet and splash words from grub.
[17:10] <switch10_> frxstrem: maybe if it is crashing that often, you should be looking for another program.  What I posted is the easiest way to do what you want to do.
[17:10] <ceil> researcher1: back it up first, but sure
[17:10] <mhall119> sipior: it's a doctor's office, they don't whitelist MACs
[17:10] <sipior> mhall119: well i obviously have no way of knowing that in advance.
[17:10] <researcher1> ceil: how do i backup grub?
[17:10] <mhall119> sipior: I'm answering your question
[17:10] <jjjoomla> Hello people
[17:11] <sipior> mhall119: we're basically playing a guessing game.
[17:11] <ceil> researcher1: sudo cp /boot/grub.cfg /boot/grub.cfg.bak
[17:11] <ceil> researcher1: or wherever it is
[17:11] <researcher1> ok
[17:11] <switch10_> frxstrem: short of setting up a cron job to open pidgen every min or so...  but you would not want to do that obviously
[17:11] <jjjoomla> I would like some help with my nic card and ubuntu 9.10 please
[17:11] <mhall119> sipior: me too, I can't figure it out
[17:11] <frxstrem> switch10_: that could probably be a kinda good idea :P thanks
[17:12] <mhall119> if I enter a manual IP address in the correct range, I am fine
[17:12] <frxstrem> now, how do you set up cron jobs?
[17:12] <researcher1> ceil: :but if the edited grub fails to work how do I get back from the backed up grub? Because I may not be able to chat if it fails
[17:12] <ceil> researcher1: livecd i guess :x
[17:12] <switch10_> frxstrem: no it is not a good idea.  you want 1000 + instances of pidgin open???
[17:12] <hydoskee> what's the name of the service you can run that will sync linux accounts across multiple computers?
[17:13] <frxstrem> switch10_: well, it doesn't - it closes automatically if there's another instance open
[17:13] <ceil> researcher1: i guess my main piece of advice is to be careful with the changes you make :) i've only added/removed kernels with it - i mess up, i can just choose a different kernel
[17:13] <zaxonspox> hydoskee ubuntuOne
[17:13] <frxstrem> switch10_: so I think it's a good idea
[17:13] <switch10_> frxstrem: I doubt that..
[17:13] <hydoskee> zaxonspox: more for all linux instead of just ubuntu
[17:13] <frxstrem> switch10_: why?
[17:13] <ceil> researcher1: if you manage to make it so grub can't even load any kernel, just pop in a livecd and cp the grub.cfg.bak back to grub.cfg
[17:13] <switch10_> frxstrem: because thats not what programs do.
[17:13] <switch10_> frxstrem: most*
[17:14] <frxstrem> well, it does (have you ever tried it with Pidgin?)
[17:14] <switch10_> frxstrem: but go ahead and try
[17:14] <researcher1> ok
[17:14] <switch10_> frxstrem: to set up a cronjob edit your crontab.
[17:15] <switch10_> frxstrem: or point it to a file..
[17:20] <gnetux> IdleOne, no way still same problem
[17:21] <gnetux> IdleOne: no way still same problem
[17:21] <gnetux> IdleOne: Is it possible that x-server should be stoped?
[17:21] <IdleOne> gnetux: can you paste the error on pastebin.com?
[17:21] <IdleOne> give us the url when done
[17:22] <gnetux> IdleOne:How to stop x-server, ubuntu 8.10?
[17:23] <jjjoomla> hi, does anybody can help me with a NIC card anb ubuntu 9.10 please?
[17:23] <IdleOne> gnetux: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[17:23] <Beyecixramd> hi people, how can i copy all the ogg files which are contained in /folder/subfolder /folder/big and /folder/small to /mnt/music in a single command?
[17:23] <zaxonspox> jjjoomla whats the problem?
[17:24] <JacobF> Is there a way in nautilus to make a window stick to a certain layout, every time I open another folder it keeps flopping between icon and compact view and it's quite annoying. :|
[17:24] <zaxonspox> Beyecixramd cp -R /folder/*.ogg /mnt/music
[17:24] <jjjoomla> hi, does anybody can help me with a NIC card anb ubuntu 9.10 please?
[17:25] <Beyecixramd> thanks zaxonspox! :)
[17:25] <lubse> hello, I have a split screen with a terminal
[17:25] <zaxonspox> jjjoomla whats the problem?
[17:25] <gnetux> IdleOne:thx i'll try no with x stoped
[17:25] <lubse> how do I go to the other screen?
[17:25] <lubse> with a keyboard shortcut, not using the mouse
[17:25] <jjjoomla> hi Zaxonspox
[17:25] <jjjoomla> ok
[17:25] <lubse> ctrl + tab just changes the tab in the current screen/view
[17:25] <IdleOne> lubse: alt+tab ?
[17:25] <zaxonspox> lubse terminal with Tabs? or what a split screen?
[17:26] <jjjoomla> the problem is that I installed wine and another application to manage wifi aftert that i lost internet conection...
[17:26] <jjjoomla> trying to fix it
[17:26] <under> I'm using a netbook. Does it exists a mkv player wich not lags?
[17:26] <jjjoomla> I removed the nic card and now I cant install it again
[17:26] <bondiblueos9> oh no; dump doesn't work on ext4, does it
[17:26] <gil_> I got dual monitor setup and running fin via the Nvidia utility but when computer goes to standby/sleep i cannot resume. what can be done about this?
[17:27] <lubse> no, alt tab brings me to another window
[17:27] <lubse> I have a single terminal window
[17:27] <lubse> but I went view > split view (left right)
[17:27] <Beyecixramd> under, netbooks have limits
[17:28] <zaxonspox> jjjoomla wine shouldnt have anything to do with NIC
[17:28] <Beyecixramd> under, try less resolution/bitrate, or try upgrading the RAM
[17:28] <under> Beyecixramd: in windows works.
[17:28] <under> using bsplayer
[17:28] <zaxonspox> lubse CTRL+ALT+<arrow_left/right>
[17:28] <Beyecixramd> under that's because driver devs are more focused in Windows, sadly...
[17:28] <lubse> hmm, maybe this is a kubuntu thingy
[17:28] <lubse> is the terminal different in KDE?
[17:28] <Beyecixramd> under either that, or you don't really have drivers installed
[17:29] <jjjoomla> zaxonspox, how do I reinstall my NIC ?
[17:29] <zaxonspox> under install vlc vlc-plugin-esd
[17:29] <lubse> ctrl + alt + arrow types: ACD ..
[17:29] <zaxonspox> jjjoomla wiwi its kind a tricky, how did you uninstalled your NIC card?
[17:30] <BluesKaj> lubse, a terminal is the same in most linux distros , there's no difference between terminals on gnome and kde
[17:30] <iceroot> BluesKaj: there is a big difference in terminals but not in the shells they are using
[17:30] <jjjoomla> i just removed from the program that manage the nic's on ubuntu
[17:31] <BluesKaj> terminal = shell iceroot , rose is a rose by another name
[17:32] <XuMuK> hi there!
[17:32] <iceroot> BluesKaj: terminal = gnome-terminal, konsole, xterm and so on, shell = sh, bash, zsh, csh and so on
[17:32] <XuMuK> someone knows how to change tty resolution?
[17:32] <BluesKaj> yeah, bash shell runs in therminal ,so what
[17:32] <Beyecixramd> XuMuK: add at the boot line, on GRUB vga=(whatever)
[17:33] <Beyecixramd> XuMuK: or use a driver with KMS support
[17:33] <BluesKaj> \therminal = hot terminal
[17:33] <gil_> anyone else here using dual screen with nvidia
[17:33] <gil_> ?
[17:33] <iceroot> BluesKaj: gnome is using gnome-terminal, kde is using konsole, so there are difference in the terminal but not in the shell they are using (bash)
[17:33] <BluesKaj> iceroot ...split as manyn hairs asyou want , it's all the same for the cli
[17:34] <gnetux> IdleOne: Here some more info on error
[17:34] <XuMuK> Beyecixramd, I've tried to add vga=X (I tried differents...) it change resolution but I only see color shapes instead letters...
[17:34] <iceroot> BluesKaj: i am just correcting you because you are mixing shell and terminal
[17:35] <gnetux> Unpacking ati-driver (from .../ati-driver_9.5-bt2_i386.deb) ...
[17:35] <Beyecixramd> XuMuK: maybe your screen is faulty.... btw, do you add vga=1024x768 (for example) or you add the number codes?
[17:35] <XuMuK> Beyecixramd, number codes...
[17:36] <adac> Is it possible to tell an application like ie. ssh client to output language in english?
[17:36] <Beyecixramd> XuMuK: what graphic card do you own?
[17:36] <XuMuK> Beyecixramd, nvidia 8600m GS
[17:36] <Beyecixramd> XuMuK: installed the official nVidia drivers?
[17:37] <XuMuK> Beyecixramd, when i just installed ubuntu it was fine till i upgraded the kernel...
[17:37] <jenue> hi guys. I just want to know your side of what's the coolest all-in-one messenger client for ubuntu?
[17:37] <XuMuK> Beyecixramd, yes
[17:38] <iceroot> jenue: bitlbee
[17:38] <Beyecixramd> jenue: Pidgin for GNOME, or Gajim with gateways, Kopete for KDE. I love Kopete, anyways
[17:38] <wegandu> guys something is using my swap 99%.. even though i have no other apps running and memory usage is 24% OUT OF 2GB.. NEED HELP
[17:38] <BluesKaj> iceroot, correcting something that doesn't mean anything to the user is not useful
[17:38] <jsec_laptop> jenue: Pidgin
[17:38] <zaxonspox> jenue pidgin
[17:38] <iceroot> BluesKaj: not correcting wrong things is also not useful
[17:38] <Beyecixramd> XuMuK: oh, i know, reinstall the nvidia drivers, please
[17:38] <muskask8> I deleted pulseaudio and have no sound now, how do I get it back?
[17:38] <jsec_laptop> Although I do have to say I'll switch over when Digsby is ported to Mac/*nix
[17:39] <switch10_> BluesKaj: giving incorrect infomation is not helpful either...
[17:39] <Beyecixramd> muskask8: install pulseaudio :)
[17:39] <muskask8> where do I find it?
[17:39] <jenue> jsec_laptop zaxonspox  you can't set to invisible mode for pidgin
[17:39] <XuMuK> Beyecixramd, allready...
[17:39] <Beyecixramd> muskask8: search for pulseaudio in Synaptic
[17:39] <Beyecixramd> XuMuK: :| wtf?! maybe nVidia is being a bit stupid about new kernels...
[17:39] <mowe> wegandu: take a look at top
[17:40] <jsec_laptop> jenue: i just did...
[17:40] <zaxonspox> jenue i can
[17:40] <tt_> hey im trying to open firefox and i get XML Parsing Error: unidentified entity
[17:40] <tt_> and it wont open
[17:40] <jenue> jsec_laptop zaxonspox  for specific account
[17:40] <jenue> jsec_laptop zaxonspox  for specific account??
[17:40] <Jonty> arlg, upgrade managers should be able to run unattended! is there any way to delay the config file keep/remove choices till the end of installation?
[17:40] <XuMuK> Beyecixramd, i think the same after 9000 hours smocking manuals and forums... i tried everything
[17:40] <wegandu> mowe, top where?.. i just joined the channel
[17:41] <Beyecixramd> tt_: run firefox --safe-mode
[17:41] <muskask8> thanks, found it!
[17:41] <tt_> it would be 'firefox --safe-mode'
[17:41] <zaxonspox> jenue for my account, that i am logged in Pidgin
[17:41] <tt_> ?
[17:42] <jsec_laptop> zaxonspox, jenue means multiple accounts in pidgin, having one go invisible while the others stay online
[17:42] <mowe> wegandu: it's a command line command
[17:42] <tt_> it says something g_set prgname() called multiple times
[17:43] <mowe> wegandu: should show you what is eating up all the swap
[17:43] <tt_> then the same error comes up
[17:43] <jenue> jsec_laptop: correct. that's what I mean. thanks
[17:43] <zaxonspox> jsec_laptop i seeeeee
[17:44] <jsec_laptop> jenue: i'm looking, and it seems that you're right on that matter. i don't understand WHY they wouldn't have that functionality, but it seems they don't
[17:45] <tt_> Beyecixramd, any further thoughts?
[17:45] <kriston> How do I enable X11 bitmap font lucida-sans-typewriter?  I tried dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config and nothing happened.  I used to use that to enable bitmapped fonts.  How do you do this in 9.10?
[17:45] <jenue> jsec_laptop: yah. if meeboo can be desktop app, it is the best messenger client for me
[17:45] <Beyecixramd> tt_: run sudo apt-get remove firefox --purge
[17:46] <Beyecixramd> tt_: then install firefox back again (from Synaptic)
[17:46] <jsec_laptop> jenue: i'm waiting for the *nix port for Digsby, it's what I use on my M$ box
[17:46] <tt_> sounds like it should work, thank you
[17:46] <Beyecixramd> jsec_laptop: why? i find Kopete beautiful, stable, fast and feature-complete
[17:46] <Beyecixramd> yw, tt_
[17:47] <bondiblueos9> I can see why z is for gzip, but why j for bzip2?
[17:47] <jsec_laptop> Beyecixramd: I have a small enough HD on this computer, and I don't want to install 400 MB worth of KDE dependencies just to run Kopete
[17:47] <Beyecixramd> bondiblueos9: who knows...
[17:47] <Beyecixramd> jsec_laptop: nice point, yup
[17:47] <Beyecixramd> jsec_laptop: what about meebo?
[17:47] <Beyecixramd> there's an AIR app for meebo, to run meebo from your desktop
[17:48] <ZykoticK9> bondiblueos9, -b is already used for something else
[17:48] <koe> guys ... ive edited my .bashrc and now when I open gnome-terminal it wont open anymore at /home/user
[17:48] <jsec_laptop> Beyecixramd: Haven't looked into it yet... I've got AIR already installed, so maybe I'll take a look at it.
[17:48] <koe> how can I fix this ?
[17:48] <tt_> hey, the terminal gave me 'E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. ' but im not sure how to phrase it
[17:49] <jsec_laptop> koe, load your bashrc-backup?
[17:49] <tt_> just run exactly what it says?
[17:49] <Beyecixramd> tt_: do what it tells you, run sudo dpkg --configure -a
[17:49] <Beyecixramd> yes, tt_
[17:49] <tt_> thank you
[17:50] <mde_> Hello everyone, I need some help getting a pcmcia audio card functioning.  Anyone have a moment to help?
[17:50] <gmatt00> alright, i've got ubuntu 9.10 x86 installed.  doing updates, then doing a 10.04 update, right?
[17:50] <jenue> Beyecixramd: i've used meebone before. but i think it's out of support now. i can't run the app anymore
[17:50] <gfd> how long untill new ubuntu is out ?
[17:51] <gfd> i love the new color
[17:51] <gfd> is so totally pretty
[17:51] <gil_> anyone else here using dual screen with nvidia?
[17:51] <erUSUL> !isitout
[17:52] <Guest93391> jo0
[17:52] <XuMuK> Beyecixramd, after desinstall driver it changed... wtf? why before it worked fine? o_O
[17:54] <mde_> is "update-modules" an old name of "modprobe" ?
[17:54] <countess> I need some help
[17:54] <bondiblueos9> I get slightly irritated when my computer tells me things like "Unsupported CPU" and i'm thinking, it can't be that unsupported, you are running code on it to display this message to me
[17:55] <countess> for some reason when I log in it doesnt actually log in it brings me back to the login screen
[17:55] <zaxonspox> countes where, in VirtualBox virtual machine?
[17:55] <countess> no
[17:55] <countess> not in a virtual machine
[17:56] <countess> it accepts my password and acts like it is going to login and then it brings me back
[17:56] <countess> oh I am running ubuntu 10.04
[17:56] <countess> forgot to mention
[17:56] <tt_> works thanks
[17:56] <bondiblueos9> its a similar frustration to when I'm booting up some linux and it's looking all nice and pretty and half graphical to show me my options, but then just fails to show me a terminal after booting; I think, but you were just using some working driver to show me those options, why can't you use that one?
[17:56] <mde_> I have a sound card that is appearing under /proc/asound, but whenever audio is sent to it, computer freezes.
[17:56] <zaxonspox> countess then try on #ubuntu+1
[17:56] <h00k> !lucid | countess
[17:56] <countess> allright
[17:57] <mde_> audio card does not show up in lspci
[17:57] <gunksta> Since I see a virtualization discussion, I've gotta ask. Is there anyone in here good at debugging libvirt errors? Every time I try to start my VM via virt-manager I am told that the connection was refused (socket error). Any thoughts?
[17:57] <h00k> mde_: have you seen the links provided in !sound?
[17:57] <mde_> anyone know of an alsa IRQ channel?
[17:58] <maeon3> How can there be 1539 people in the room?
[17:58] <maeon3> This must be madness.
[17:58] <maeon3> Hello
[17:58] <erUSUL> maeon3: we do not talk all at once ;)
[17:59] <h00k> !sound | mde_
[17:59] <erUSUL> mde_: #alsa
[17:59] <maeon3> 1539 people.. I hope so.    99.9% of people better be quiet.
[17:59] <egc> is there a well-known channel to ask development (C) questions?
[17:59] <zaxonspox> gunksta no idea about virt, but you can use VirtualBox it is also pretty good
[17:59] <maeon3> egc I'm a developer, you can private message me.
[17:59] <erUSUL> egc: ##c
[18:00] <wildc4rd> evenin' all
[18:00] <carlosleon> I have an weird issue with my pc. I'm accessing to it from the office, through internet. The port I'm using for the ssh connection is the 80. I have mapped all that things for making possible to connect from internet. But now in that remote computer I have no internet :S what could it be?
[18:00] <egc> thanks!
[18:00] <hamzaatova2> how can i solve the problem of freezed computer upon copying a file and a slow file transfer??????
[18:01] <nastjuid> how do I see which version of ubuntu was originally installed on a machine?
[18:01] <kriston> How do I enable X11 bitmap fonts?
[18:01] <nastjuid> oooh got it
[18:01] <gil_>  has anyon been able to suspend a machine running nvidia 195 drivers with dual monitor twinview?
[18:02] <gunksta> zaxonspox: thanks, but I've already made the VM, plus I'm leery of Oracle and it VirtualBox development will continue as it has in the past.
[18:03] <gunksta> zaxonspox: and, the VM works great via KVM command-line options, I'd just like to use libvirt to manage it.
[18:03] <nosse1> Hi. I'm going to browse some larger source trees. I am looking for an application to browse sources with syntax highlighting and hyperlinking. Which one would you recommend?
[18:03] <zaxonspox> gunksta VB is from Sun Microsystems, Orcale only took over Sun
[18:03] <mde_> \search
[18:04] <neospreshaw> here to help
[18:04] <bondiblueos9> sun microsystems is not sun?
[18:04] <gunksta> zaxonspox: ???
[18:04] <Beyecixramd> bondiblueos9: yes it is
[18:04] <gunksta> zaxonspox: read here - http://blogs.sun.com/VirtualBoxBuzz/
[18:04] <Beyecixramd> bondiblueos9: but now, they are part of Oracle
[18:04] <IdleOne> !ot
[18:04] <zaxonspox> bondiblueos9 Sun M... = Sun in short :P
[18:05] <caution> do systems auto reboot for security updates?
[18:05] <zaxonspox> gunksta i will, something to search for?
[18:05] <caution> my system rebooted last night for an unknown reason
[18:05] <IdleOne> caution: linux rarely needs to be rebooted because of updates
[18:06] <Beyecixramd> IdleOne: in fact, only kernel upgrades and not much else
[18:06] <IdleOne> Beyecixramd: even then not always
[18:06] <caution> how can I tell why/what rebooted my system?
[18:06] <hamzaatova2> how can i solve the problem of freezed computer upon copying a file and a slow file transfer??????
[18:06] <bondiblueos9> I hate rebooting my computer as much as I hated rebooting Star Trek
[18:07] <EVILWez> evening
[18:07] <neospreshaw> can i have 10.04 and 9.10?
[18:07] <Beyecixramd> in two separate partitions? yes, neospreshaw
[18:07] <IdleOne> neospreshaw: on separate partitions yes
[18:07] <neospreshaw> you now the live cd wat haping to it
[18:08] <EVILWez> .exit
[18:08] <neospreshaw> you now the live cd wat haping to it?
[18:08] <hamzaatova2> how can i solve the problem of freezed computer upon copying a file and a slow file transfer??????
[18:08] <neospreshaw> can get 1
[18:09] <AcePreshaw> neospresaw: yes it donw
[18:09] <neospreshaw> :(
[18:10] <nastjuid> hmmm, maybe I should assign more CPUs to this vm before building squid...
[18:10] <nastjuid> if only CPUs were hot swappable :P
[18:11] <theubuntudargon> so\
[18:11] <theubuntudargon> z
[18:11] <Beyecixramd> LOL nastjuid
[18:11] <nastjuid> I'm glad someone got that
[18:11] <Beyecixramd> but it's a good idea, when you remove all CPUs available, the system goes into sleep mode
[18:12] <nastjuid> well, it's a 16 core machine.. I /should/ be using distcc, but I don't have time to set stuff up
[18:13] <nastjuid> I've been sleeping in the office for the last 3 days
[18:13] <neospreshaw> haha
[18:13] <neospreshaw> how the hell cna i run msn
[18:14] <workman> Run winblows for MSN
[18:14] <nastjuid> at least I realized that squid3 from apt isn't 3.1 like the squid-cache site says and am no longer banging my head on my desk wondering why ipv6 isn't working :P
[18:14] <nastjuid> neospreshaw: pidgin
[18:14] <neospreshaw> i h8
[18:14] <neospreshaw> is a irc clint
[18:14] <neospreshaw> to me
[18:15] <nastjuid> irssi + screen
[18:15] <bondiblueos9> how can I send myself an email from my ubuntu command line?
[18:15] <workman> Androidirc client ftw
[18:16] <neospreshaw> you can
[18:16] <neospreshaw> but i donot now Sory
[18:17] <Losha> bondiblueos9: you need to install a mail backend first. Does your ISP provide an smtp server?
[18:17] <workman> Mail (your address) -s"subject" enter, type message, the hit
[18:17] <workman> . And enter
[18:18] <bondiblueos9> send-mail: fatal: open /etc/postfix/main.cf: No such file or directory
[18:19] <duffydack> for JUST msn i`d probably use emesene
[18:21] <narhen> How can I change charset in terminal to one that is'nt already in the list?
[18:21] <Beyecixramd> neospreshaw: lol, did you just said Pidgin is an IRC client?
[18:22] <hamzaatova2> how can i solve the problem of freezed computer upon copying a file and a slow file transfer??????
[18:22] <tar-> it is
[18:22] <tar-> that too
[18:22] <tar-> :)
[18:22] <Beyecixramd> neospreshaw: i think Microsoft caught your brain, all that blinky stuff... god, in Linux we love useful, simple and integrated tools, not things like WLM which  don't care about your desktop theme, and has thousands of effects
[18:23] <Beyecixramd> tar-: he said that because Pidgin is "ugly" for him/her
[18:23] <tar-> oh
[18:23] <36DAAID64> There are pretty linux msn apps too :)
[18:23] <36DAAID64> plus you can run WLM in wine...
[18:23] <h00k> Empathy works nicely.
[18:24] <monkey_dust> test
[18:24] <Beyecixramd> 36DAAID64: looool.... you need to "patch" wine to run WLM in Wine, and also, there isn't really a "good looking" MSN client in Linux
[18:24] <h00k> Beyecixramd: it depends on what you're looking for.  Chatting with friends? Empathy works perfect.
[18:24] <Beyecixramd> except Kmess, maybe, which uses KDE, and looks a bit off on a GNOME enviroment
[18:25] <Beyecixramd> h00k: lol... i don't even use WLM, i was talking about someone who asked for a "pretty" WLM client...
[18:25] <Beyecixramd> h00k: i use Pidgin, with Jabber
[18:25] <nastjuid> thank you, configure script. thank you for not being able to find ANY of the paths needed for placing files in PATH
[18:25] <36DAAID64> Beyecixramd: I like the way pidgin looks better than WLM, I find the WLM interface cloggy and annoying
[18:25] <toehio> I'm trying to setup dancer-services (IRCd services) and keep getting this error: "Server Error: Closing Link: services. (No C/N conf lines)". Any ideas?
[18:26] <monkey_dust> hi, my other Linux is installed on /dev/sda8, but i cannot reach it - using GRUB in ubuntu terminal, I type 'install (hd0,7)' and a whole bunch of parameters, but it says 'error 21, disk does not exist' - hints & tips anyone?
[18:26] <Beyecixramd> 36DAAID64: that's true, most of us think the same way (us == linux users)
[18:27] <inglor> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYLv67CINjA
[18:27] <Flare-Laptop> !spam | inglor
[18:27] <Flare-Laptop> !ot | inglor
[18:27] <inglor> Flare-Laptop, I changed my nick, this is about the WLM discussion
[18:27] <Flare-Laptop> inglor: WLM? um ok
[18:28]  * Flare-Laptop had no idea
[18:28] <Beyecixramd> who in earth would want to install WLM on Linux... oh wait....
[18:28] <inglor> Flare-Laptop: this is WLM running in ubuntu, we were talking about how there is no pretty msn messenger client in ubuntu, and I was pointing out that the microsoft client runs in wine well
[18:29] <rbellamy> when I type "groups" at the cli, it shows all the groups I'm a member of except for "staff"... is this normal?
[18:29] <Flare-Laptop> inglor: Ahh I gotcha
[18:29] <Beyecixramd> the worst move Microsoft ever did was banning old WLM clients in favour of WLM 2009
[18:29] <Beyecixramd> and btw, inglor, i loved WLM 8.0 beta... everything got worse after that... have you seen WLM 2010? it's even more bloatware/blingware
[18:30] <thebruce> i <3 Ubuntu!
[18:30] <maeon3> Fedora > Ubuntu
[18:30] <Beyecixramd> thebruce: have you tried out Ubuntu Lucid beta 2 already?
[18:30] <nastjuid> me > linux
[18:30] <inglor> Beyecixramd: ever since I used gaim (pidgin) I never looked back, its interface is so much better than the microsoft interface, and it lets me use everything I need in one place (especially facebook chat and gtalk)
[18:30] <Beyecixramd> maeon3: i agree, but god, we're in a Ubuntu channel, please..
[18:31] <maeon3> lol, *runs*
[18:31] <thebruce> Beyecixramd, i have not, afraid that it will screw up my configuration, i need to get an imaging solution for my ubuntu
[18:31]  * thebruce is an ubuntu n00b
[18:31] <BluesKaj> !microsoft
[18:31] <inglor> thebruce,  what do you mean by imaging software?
[18:31] <mezquitale> thebruce, you want to image your ubuntu machine or windows?
[18:31] <thebruce> umm, like Ghost
[18:31] <Beyecixramd> thebruce: you probably would want to install VirtualBox OSE, to run virtual machines (eg: Ubuntu Lucid)
[18:32] <thebruce> i want to create an image of my ubuntu machine
[18:32] <thebruce> Beyecixramd, good point
[18:32] <inglor> thebruce, oh! there are quite a few alternatives that work as well
[18:32] <mezquitale> thebruce, partimage works just fine
[18:32] <nyad> hi, I want to remap my extra mouse buttons into keyboard numpad. I play dota in linux and it would be very nice if I could press mouse button and make it use numpadnumber which in the game lets me use inventory. how do I remap the button to the key?
[18:32] <thebruce> mezquitale, yea? is that in the repos?
[18:32] <monkey_dust> Beyecixramd: try 'testdisk' to run lucid as a virtual machine
[18:32] <mezquitale> thebruce, yup yup
[18:32] <Beyecixramd> :| what? monkey
[18:32] <Beyecixramd> monkey_dust*
[18:32] <thebruce> mezquitale, nice. does it run from inside of ubuntu? or do you have to boot to a live environment
[18:33] <Beyecixramd> thebruce: virtual machine == window running another OS
[18:33] <Beyecixramd> inside your current os == no rebooting required :D
[18:33] <thebruce> Beyecixramd, yeah i know about Vm's just didn't consider it
[18:33] <inglor> thebruce, try clonezilla for ghost under linux
[18:33] <Losha> thebruce: I've never used it myself, but if you google, you'll find "ghost for linux"...
[18:33] <nastjuid> my manager likes clonezilla
[18:33] <nastjuid> and he doesn't like many thing
[18:33] <thebruce> i used be a windows/apple guy before i fell in love with android and ubuntu
[18:33] <h00k> thebruce: also, look at 'dd'
[18:33] <nastjuid> s/thing/things/
[18:34] <inglor> thebruce, what are you attempting to accomplish?
[18:34] <Beyecixramd> thebruce: great move :)
[18:34] <thebruce> inglor going to create an image of my ext3 partition
[18:34] <mezquitale> thebruce, depends on what you want to do, you can run it on live CD or live environment, live CD is obviously so you can work on your working hard drive, I used partimage to upgrade my HD, partimaged my XP partition, restored to new HD, then installed ubuntustudio from DVD
[18:34] <Beyecixramd> inglor: have you tried Kopete, btw?
[18:34] <inglor> thebruce, clonezilla is what you're looking for
[18:34] <bondiblueos9> I wrote a script that symlinks /dev/tape to the highest numbered /dev/nstX
[18:35] <bondiblueos9> if I want that to run at startup, where do I put it?
[18:35] <DanDare> Hello. It´s possible to have the live Ubuntu version being booted not from the CD but from an external USB drive ?
[18:35] <thebruce> etc/fstab?
[18:35] <erUSUL> bondiblueos9: /etc/rc.local is the easiest solution
[18:35] <bondiblueos9> well, actually I guess I could put it as @reboot in crontab
[18:35] <thebruce> yes DanDare
[18:35] <inglor> Beyecixramd: tried Kopete, it's nice, but I still like pidgin better, if does everything I need it to do... will probably switch to empathy for better OS integration when I upgrade to lucid
[18:35] <erUSUL> bondiblueos9: but you can look into writting a udev rule for the tape
[18:35] <DanDare> thebruce, where should I start looking for it ?
[18:35] <thebruce> there is a utility to create a usbdrive when you run the livecd
[18:35] <Beyecixramd> DanDare: use unetbootin, available for Win and Linux
[18:35] <inglor> DanDare, yes, but you need a computer able to boot from usb
[18:36] <tom> Who is the Chinese people?
[18:36] <DanDare> inglor, I know this
[18:36] <thebruce> yeah or unetbootin
[18:36] <erUSUL> !cn | tom
[18:36] <thebruce> DanDare are you in windows machine now?
[18:36] <DanDare> thebruce, this utility is included in the CD,... so just choose to install Ubuntu and choose the external drive ?
[18:36] <DanDare> thebruce, yes, win7 right now
[18:37] <bondiblueos9> erUSUL: my problem is actually this: my external tape drive is /dev/st0 if it is powered on at boot, but I would instead like my internal tape drive to always be /dev/st0; would a udev rule be able to fix that?
[18:37] <Beyecixramd> DanDare: that's not the way, use the specific USB creator from inside the LiveCD
[18:37] <watoo> #join linuxazur
[18:37] <thebruce> no DanDare. when you boot to the livecd. go to System-Admin-Usb Start Creator
[18:37] <tom> Thank you!
[18:37] <switch10_> DanDare: have look here before you do anything..http://www.pendrivelinux.com/
[18:37] <DanDare> nice
[18:37] <watoo> join #linuxazur
[18:37] <thebruce> OR DanDare you can download unetbootin on windows and choose the .iso and the distro
[18:37] <DanDare> thanks thebruce. thanks inglor and you all
[18:37] <Beyecixramd> watoo it's /join #channel
[18:37] <IdleOne> watoo: /join
[18:37] <thebruce> no problem DanDare
[18:38] <watoo> thanks idleone
[18:38] <DanDare> thebruce, the embeded Ubuntu facility sounds more reasonable right ?
[18:38] <thebruce> DanDare, i've used both
[18:38] <thebruce> i guess unetbootin is nice so you don't have to boot from a livedisk
[18:38] <DanDare> llright
[18:38] <DanDare> I see
[18:38] <erUSUL> bondiblueos9: really dunno for sure; you can try look here http://reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html
[18:38] <DanDare> Will check about unetbootin
[18:38] <thebruce> unetbootin does a TON of distros
[18:39] <erUSUL> bondiblueos9: you can give them more descriptive names like /dev/internal_tape i guess
[18:39] <DanDare> sounds very cool
[18:39] <thebruce> all you do is tell it which distro. point to the .iso and point to the usb drive
[18:39] <thebruce> lemme give you alink DanDare
[18:39] <Beyecixramd> thebruce: if you have the .ISO, you don't need to specify the distro
[18:39] <h00k> thebruce: also, for some, you don't need the Distro and it will grab it from the internets
[18:39] <thebruce> ahhh yeah trie
[18:39] <Beyecixramd> thebruce: the distro selector will automatically download the ISO to install
[18:39] <thebruce> good point Beyecixramd
[18:39] <thebruce> http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[18:40] <gunksta> sudo apt-get update
[18:40] <thebruce> Beyecixramd, is there any Linux distro that is as nice as Ubuntu?
[18:40] <thebruce> with all of the builtin drivers and features
[18:40] <gunksta> oops sorry, wrong window
[18:40] <Beyecixramd> thebruce: depends in what you meant as "nice"
[18:40] <mezquitale> ubuntustudio
[18:40] <Beyecixramd> maybe Elive, or PCLinuxOS
[18:41] <neobos> i copied movie from windows into pen drive and im trying to play in linux ubuntu 9.10 its not playing can some one tell me what to do
[18:41] <h00k> !codecs | neobos
[18:41] <mezquitale> ubunstudio is based on ubuntu, it trumps ubuntu anytime!
[18:41] <DanDare> thebruce, but using unetbootin it will arrange for me lastest version of the distros ?
[18:41] <thebruce> so "!(word)" brings up the bot?
[18:41] <h00k> mezquitale: it depends on what you're using it for
[18:41] <prettyhatem> Anyone know how to test the performance on a mdadm raid5 array?  I have a feeling mine is slower then it should be...
[18:41] <Beyecixramd> thebruce: Mandriva is cool, too, it includes MP3 codecs and non-free drivers
[18:41] <crucialhoax> thebruce: Mostly, yes
[18:42] <thebruce> DanDare, well yeah and if you have and iso it will create that
[18:42] <neobos> h00k, what
[18:42] <gunksta> re: ubuntustudio - you can do both. See tasksel --list-tasks
[18:42] <Losha> thebruce: mint is basically ubuntu with more drivers/codecs/restricted apps ready installed...
[18:42] <Beyecixramd> thebruce: also, Mint is based in ubuntu, it's basically Ubuntu + restricted formats + cool tools
[18:42] <flam_> hey. I've built my own version/package of wpasupplicant and installed it. Now apt-get wants to replace it with ubuntu's standard version/package. How do I make apt "accept" my new version/package?
[18:42] <Beyecixramd> lol Losha....
[18:42] <thebruce> ohh very nice Beyecixramd
[18:42] <seidl_> hi! i have a strange error: i can't edit applets in the panel anymore. also if i try to edit the keys with gconf-editor it says the keys for the panel applets are read only. anybody got an idea on how this could be fixed?
[18:42] <Losha> Beyecixramd: :-)
[18:42] <Beyecixramd> xD
[18:42] <h00k> neobos: You had asked a question, that information will help you
[18:42] <thebruce> any android users in the house?
[18:42] <standard> Hello, I am trying Ubuntu Lucid and apparently the file manager doesn't unblock the partitions on my USB external drive, so that it's impossible for me to mount and use them. Any ideas on the cause?
[18:43] <tom> This can be done online right 1024 * 768?
[18:43] <ubuntu_powerbook> I have a concern with my ubuntu installation on my powerbook G4 '12, 1.33 GHz mac.  The computer appears to run pretty warm.  There were a couple of times in my ubuntu 9.04 installation when it shut down.  When I tried to upgrade it to 9.10, it got even worse.  My upgrade to 9.10 was done from CD.  The upgrade feature didn't work in 9.04.  Is there any way around the power issue?
[18:43] <KB1JWQ> !lucid | standard
[18:43] <mezquitale> standard, lucid is supported in #ubuntu+1
[18:43] <monkey_dust> hi, my other Linux is installed on /dev/sda8, but i cannot reach it - using GRUB in ubuntu terminal, I type 'install (hd0,7)' and a whole bunch of parameters, but it says 'error 21, disk does not exist' - hints & tips anyone?
[18:43] <h00k> thebruce: We try to keep this channel for Ubuntu related questions, your question may be better suited for #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:43] <standard> thanks guys
[18:43] <Beyecixramd> ubuntu_powerbook: maybe... the ACPI in the Mac pcs.... are not 100% compatible with Linux
[18:43] <thebruce> h00k gotcha
[18:43] <DanDare> thebruce, ok.. thanks
[18:43] <Beyecixramd> ubuntu_powerbook: (PC as in Personal Computer)
[18:43] <thebruce> thanks for the info h00k
[18:44] <h00k> thebruce: no prob
[18:44] <mezquitale> monkey_dust, any reason why you cant just install grub2 to MBR?
[18:44] <neobos> h00k, how
[18:44] <h00k> neobos: how what?
[18:44] <pawel__> hey
[18:44] <prettyhatem> does anyone know where to find any kind of documentation for Palimpest Disk Utility?
[18:44] <prettyhatem> google doesnt help
[18:44] <vng> how do I extend the swap space?
[18:44] <thebruce> i have an interesting issue. my ubuntu will copy and text that i select w/o me using ctrl+c
[18:45] <ubuntu_powerbook> sorry...I have a powerbook G4, 1.33 GHz mac
[18:45] <monkey_dust> mezquitale: how do i do that? wait, i'm checking online
[18:45] <bondiblueos9> erUSUL: thank you, this looks like it can solve my problem
[18:45] <DanDare> there´s any Ubuntu Desktop 64bit version ?
[18:45] <h00k> DanDare: yes, that exists.
[18:45] <zvacet> flam_ : if you don´t want to install version from apt-get then type sudo aptitude hold package_name
[18:45] <thebruce> i am using a clipboard utility called Parcellite 0.9.1
[18:46] <DanDare> h00k, yeah im seeing in here.. it´s ok? can i expect 32bit apps and drivers working flawless in the 64bit version ?
[18:46] <mezquitale> monkey_dust, it could also be that youre using the wrong index, grub2 and grub legacy start counting partitions differently, I think grub legacy started at 0, grub2 starts at 1 so your 7th partition in your first hard drive would be  /dev/sda7
[18:46] <blendmaster1024> is there an easy eay to *install* to a usb disk? not a liveusb system, a system where the root drive is a partition *on* the usb disk?
[18:46] <pawel__> do enyone now some programs to instantly display all system informations --cpu ,temp,on screen
[18:46] <h00k> DanDare: there are 64bit equivalents for most software, yeah.
[18:47] <Beyecixramd> blendmaster1024: yes, unetbootin or the bundled USB installer on the Ubuntu LiveCD
[18:47] <switch10_> blendmaster1024: have a look here http://www.pendrivelinux.com/
[18:47] <DanDare> ok, but 32bit software will work anyway ?
[18:47] <DanDare> on the 64bit OS ?
[18:47] <blendmaster1024> Beyecixramd: i don't want liveusb!!! i want it *WITHOUT CASPER*
[18:47] <ASULutzy> Quick question, how can I get a list of all the packages that "build-dep" pulls down. For example, I did sudo apt-get build-dep package, which installed several packages, now I would like to force a reinstall of those packages.
[18:47] <Losha> prettyhatem: perhaps something here: http://library.gnome.org/users/palimpsest/2.30/palimpsest.html
[18:47] <vng> How do I extend the swap space in ubuntu?
[18:47] <switch10_> blendmaster1024: check the link I gave you...
[18:48] <DanDare> vng, you must have enought room on the HDD at first
[18:48] <Beyecixramd> blendmaster1024: you mean persistent storage?
[18:48] <switch10_> Beyecixramd: yes that is what he means.
[18:48] <vng> DanDare: yes, I have
[18:48] <zvacet> ASULutzy : synaptic>file tab>history
[18:48] <blendmaster1024> Beyecixramd: NO!!! /me is annoyed - you're doing exactly what i expected
[18:48] <prettyhatem> Losha: yeah I saw that, did you take a look at that link?
[18:48] <blendmaster1024> i want to *install*, the same way you would with *ubiquity*
[18:49] <mezquitale> blendmaster1024, installing into USB kinda makes it live USB except the installation is permanent
[18:49] <Beyecixramd> okay, blendmaster1024, you lost your right to get your answer
[18:49] <vng> DanDare: And I need to extend the swap. Please help
[18:49] <Beyecixramd> at least from me, blendmaster1024
[18:49] <DanDare> vng, allright, you run fdisk, delete the swat partition, then create a new one (with the same fdisk). After creation you can use 'mkswap' to set it
[18:49] <Losha> prettyhatem: I just did. There's nothing there, is there?
[18:49] <DanDare> vng, this ara the general steps
[18:50] <DanDare> vng, take a look into mkswap command and fdisk
[18:50] <zaxonspox> vng use GParted select SWAP and Resize it
[18:50] <prettyhatem> Losha: nope its pretty bad....  Do you know of any kind of hard drive benchmarking software I could install?
[18:50] <DanDare> vng, http://www.faqs.org/docs/linux_admin/x1762.html
[18:50] <ASULutzy> zvacet: Hmmm, that doesn't seem to show things i brought down with apt-get build-dep ? or at least it's not organized... I have an idea, could someone PM me with what packages "apt-get build-dep wesnoth" attempts to install?
[18:50] <vng> DanDare, zaxonspox : Thank you!
[18:50] <Losha> vng: 3 ways: expand the existing swap partition, add a new swap partition, or add a swap file...
[18:50] <zvacet> vng: shrunk partition next to swap and on that unalocated space extend swap
[18:51] <DanDare> vng, this sounds good for you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1262862 but not read or tested
[18:51] <zaxonspox> Losha just for info, which way would you choose?
[18:51] <Losha> prettyhatem: I just use dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/diskdrive to get a rough idea of throughput.
[18:51] <zvacet> ASULutzy : they are deb files right? you should be able to find them by day of installation
[18:51] <prettyhatem> Losha: awesome thanks
[18:51] <vng> Thanks all, I'm refering your links
[18:52] <nihongochatto> konnichiwa?
[18:52] <h00k> prettyhatem: be careful, don't do that on a drive with data!
[18:52] <DanDare> vng, you can delete the actual swap partition and do what "dstew" say on that post
[18:52] <sweb> what's the major differents between of debian and ubuntu ?
[18:52] <prettyhatem> haha was just going to ask that
[18:52] <h00k> prettyhatem: that command will write zeroes to your drive
[18:52] <h00k> Losha: be careful when telling people that command.
[18:53] <Losha> zaxonspox: well, there's nothing significant between them in terms of performance, so it depends if the existing partition is easily expandable or not, or if there's room to add a new one. If not, then a swapfile is the way to go...
[18:53] <BluesKaj> ASULutzy, check wesnoth in synaptic
[18:53] <DanDare> yeah, it´s like "press ALT+F4" to fix it now
[18:53] <ASULutzy> zvacet: Basically, something got corrupted in my 10.04 install. I just installed a fresh 10.04 in a VM and I am able to compile wesnoth from source. I attempted to run sudo debsums -a -s to check if maybe a cosmic ray did it, but that didn't lead anywhere. So I'm attempting to reinstall the packages that "apt-get build-dep wesnoth" brought down... As a side question, is there any chance that being on a pae kernel could cause gcc to segfault?

[18:54] <prettyhatem> Has anyone used Bonnie to check their drives?
[18:54] <Losha> prettyhatem: thanks for watching my back, h00k, I *meant* to say  dd if=/dev/zero of=<some disk file>
[18:54] <ASULutzy> zvacet: So yea, fresh 10.04 install in a VM, compiles fine, my host 10.04 install, gcc segfaults, I may just reinstall clean, might be easier than trying to figure out what is going on
[18:54] <h00k> Losha: either way, it is still dangerous telling people that command if they don't understand what it does.
[18:54] <mezquitale> !danger
[18:54] <bluelaguna> Is there any way to downgrade from grub2 to the original grub?
[18:55] <zvacet> ASULutzy : try to find answer on #ubuntu+1
[18:55] <monkey_dust> hi, about GRUB on MBR -- i did 'grub-install /dev/sda', but now i have to enter the settings manually -- hints & tips anyone
[18:55] <BluesKaj> ASULutzy, you can use your package manager to install wesnoth on 10.04 , no need to compile
[18:55] <Losha> h00k: I agree. Sometimes I forget. prettyhatem: are you listening?
[18:55] <muskask8> I need help getting my logitech camera working in skype
[18:55] <mezquitale> monkey_dust, you have to enter what settings manually?!?  can you boot up to your linux OS?
[18:55] <zaxonspox> bluelaguna https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Uninstalling%20GRUB%202
[18:56] <prettyhatem> Losha: yeah I am hearing this, thanks for the info though.  I was gonna ask if it was gonna zero out the drive
[18:56] <bluelaguna> zaxonspox: thanks
[18:56] <monkey_dust> mezquitale: i am in linux now, so yes
[18:56] <monkey_dust> mezquitale: but there is no menu anymore
[18:56] <h00k> prettyhatem: there's a disk utility that can be used to benchmark your drive
[18:56] <mezquitale> monkey_dust, so you installed grub2 in your MBR?  you have more than one OS on your machine?
[18:56] <muskask8> I need help getting my logitech camera working in skype
[18:57] <ASULutzy> BluesKaj: I need 1.8, not 1.65, zvacet: It's not really a 10.04 specific issue per say. Which is why I asked the question is there a simple way to get a list of what apt-get build-dep packageName pulls down. If I look at the dependencies in synaptic it just lists like wesnoth-data (and not libs and stuff). Anyway, forget it, I'll just reinstall, not worth chasing so many phantoms down, though I am a little scared that somehow something got seriously busted (ei

[18:57] <prettyhatem> h00k: is it called bonnie?  I just did some google searches
[18:57] <monkey_dust> mezquitale: yes, ubuntu, centos and mint
[18:57] <h00k> prettyhatem: no, it is in System -> Adminsitration -> Disk Utility
[18:57] <Beyecixramd> mezquitale: the MBR is not big enoughm to store *anything* at all, you only can store there a link to the actual bootloader
[18:57] <prettyhatem> ahh okay
[18:57] <mezquitale> monkey_dust, sudo update-grub, then reboot
[18:57] <monkey_dust> aw rite
[18:58] <test12349> Hi, does anyone know if it is possible to set windows to load up on the next boot?

[18:58] <prettyhatem> h00k: yeah I am trying to find any kind of documentation on that program but cant really
[18:58] <Beyecixramd> test12349: it is possible to set up Windows to load automatically EVERY time
[18:58] <h00k> prettyhatem: that's it, yeah.
[18:58] <mezquitale> Beyecixramd, precisely, sometimes grub2 needs a little help after you install on MBR to link to the whatever OS bootloaders you want it to point to, upgrade-grub usually does the trick
[18:59] <nastjuid> oh look, it works when I use the right port :(

[18:59] <jabba> hello, i once asked in #ubuntu.de before, but didn't get a solution, so i ask my question here again: If i plug in my NTFS-formatted usb-drive (running gnome as desktop) the drive gets mounted autimatically. The problem i have is that the files on the drive are then mounted with the ownership jabba:jabba. But I want it mounted as jabba:users. If I put an according line in the fstab (defining uid and gid) gnome shows me an error when i plu

[19:00] <lubse> hello, I work with big datasets, I was wondering if there is a good replacement program for office Excel 2010, open office is not good, because it can only read 1/3 of the dataset due max columns and rows reached
[19:00] <Beyecixramd> please, shorter questions, jabba, that amount of text is annoying/unreadable
[19:00] <jabba> Beyecixramd, sorry i wanted to be as precise as possible
[19:00] <chrometiger> can anyone point me to a good tutorial on how to completely clone my drive with Ubuntu to another new drive "bigger drive"  with everything i have already installed  etc.
[19:00] <Smoodo> lubse: Numeric perhaps?
[19:00] <inglor> lubse, you can run excel with wine if you'd like
[19:01] <nastjuid> note the directory it's mounted to, remove drive, create directory, set chown -R jabba:users /media/mountpoint
[19:01] <Beyecixramd> jabba, say your problem, then answer questions, don't put that amount of text, because it's almost impossible to read it having in mind the amount of people asking here at the same time
[19:01] <jabba> nastjuid, i did
[19:01] <h00k> chrometiger: see the man page for 'dd'
[19:01] <nastjuid> :|

[19:01] <Smoodo> lubse: http://projects.gnome.org/gnumeric/
[19:02] <test12349> Beyecixramd: its not what i meant,
[19:02] <chrometiger> k,   everything i see on  dd   say's i need to make a partition on the new drive  exact same size  is this true
[19:02] <Losha> jabba: lot of short attention spans around. Try adding the user option from the 'man mount' page. Not sure if it works for ntfs volumes...
[19:02] <h00k> chrometiger: you could then resize it
[19:03] <chrometiger> ah
[19:03] <h00k> chrometiger: once it's on the other drive, with gparted
[19:03] <test12349> i asked if it is possible to set (while on ubuntu, not the bios or anything lower like GRUB) the next boot to be windows
[19:03] <test12349> so i can "click a button" instead of waiting for grub to load and change the boot
[19:03] <lubse> Smoodo, this can deal with big datasets?
[19:03] <jabba> nastjuid, i discovered that the problem is ntfs-3g not having fuse built in. Losha the weird thing is, that if i do "sudo mount /media/mountpoint" froma console it works fine. (and yes I used "users" as an option)
[19:04] <jabba> if i do it with the user jabba from the console i get the same error, but why does it work without the fstab line then?
[19:04] <nastjuid> was going to ask if you were using native or ntfs-3g. I was under the impression that ntfs-3g had all options built in, and you'd only need to install fuse and re-attach to make it work
[19:05] <flammer> I've built my own version/package of wpasupplicant and installed it. Now apt-get wants to replace it with ubuntu's standard version/package. How do I make apt "accept" my new version/package?

[19:06] <Losha> jabba: I thought the point of the 'users' option is so you don't have to sudo to mount the volume...

[19:08] <muskask8> can someone help me get my logitech webcam to work in skype?
[19:08] <jabba> muskask8, once is enough
[19:08] <jabba> muskask8, more details :)
[19:08] <nastjuid> plug it in, plug it in
[19:08]  * nastjuid flinches
[19:09] <jabba> nastjuid, what did you mean with native ntfs?
[19:09] <muskask8> well it's a logitech quickcam cummunicate stx, the video part with work in cheese, except it won't record, only take pictures, and when I try using it in skype there's nothing
[19:09] <jabba> isn't that all ntfs-3g nowadays?
[19:09] <Losha> Procule: If you have the deb file, you can use dpkg --contents <debfile> to see an ls -l type listing of the contents. Does that help?
[19:10] <nastjuid> the last time I built a kernel, I noted there was native ntfs with write support
[19:10] <nastjuid> that was years ago, though
[19:10] <nastjuid> when I was masochistic and used gentoo
[19:10] <jabba> w/o write support
[19:10] <jabba> me too :)
[19:10] <Procule> Losha, thanks
[19:10] <jabba> then i was enlighted by ubuntu :D
[19:11] <jabba> after years of compiling
[19:11] <Smoodo> lubse: Just a second..  I'm going to test with a CSV with a few million rows.
[19:11] <nastjuid> hell, i woulda switched to anything with public package repositories and didn't have to wait for everything to build
[19:11] <Losha> jabba: amen...
[19:11] <jabba> though it never got boring
[19:11] <nastjuid> jabba: i took a step back and looked at the 6 machines running distcc and ccache and decided it was time to do things easier
[19:12] <jabba> hrhr

[19:40] <Dr_Willis> Tgeres some extra screensavers in the repositories
[19:40] <bondiblueos9> is there a command line command to generate a system beep?
[19:40] <Dr_Willis>  theres the gnome screensavers and the xscreensaver packages also.
[19:40] <Dr_Willis> bondiblueos9:  yes. I think its called 'beep'
[19:40] <coz_> :)
[19:40] <bondiblueos9> haha, ok; I should have just tried that
[19:41] <histo> bondiblueos9: beep
[19:41] <Dekko> Hello everybody! :)
[19:41] <histo> bondiblueos9: its not installed by default though there is a way to do it with default install let me find it for you
[19:41] <gmonnie> ive got the screensaver i want, i just dont know how to add it
[19:41] <Dekko> I was wondering if I could get some support here. The scenario is as follows:
[19:42] <Dr_Willis> willis@cow:~$ ps ax | grep gdm
[19:42] <Dr_Willis>   980 ?        Ssl    0:00 gdm-binary
[19:42] <blendmaster1024> oh NOES! how do i make ubiquity install to a flash drive? i can't see my flash drive in the ubuiquity partitioner!
[19:42] <Dr_Willis> oops  wrong channel. :)
[19:42] <PrestonConnors> Hello, I am experiencing an AppArmor / libvirt issue. AppArmor seems to be denying libvirt access to one of my VM disks. Here is relevant error output and aa-status output: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/9f00Mnbu  Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
[19:43] <PrestonConnors> This is on Ubuntu 9.10 amd64
[19:43] <Dr_Willis> blendmaster1024:  odd. it saw mine.  Perhaps delete all partions on the flash drive first..
[19:43] <nosse1> What's the deal with Firefox and flash player ATM? I get upgrade warning on YouTube, yet I have the latest version
[19:43] <auzigog> Question: how do I use a bash script to run another script that prompts for input, capture that prompt, and force my own input into it?
[19:43] <Dekko> Set up file and printer sharing between Ubuntu 9.04 and Windows 7 box using SAMBA under Gnome. I can join the windows workgroup and see the computers there - but I can NOT browse them - DBUS error. I can also see the computer from Windows and see the shared folder but I can NOT access it. I *can* use the Windows PRINTER though from the Ubuntu box with no problems. But NO working filesharing.
[19:43] <nosse1> I'm running Karmic amd64, BTW
[19:43] <azertyuio> sorry for the delay this the file http://paste.ubuntu.com/415706/ zaxonspox
[19:43] <blendmaster1024> Dr_Willis: that seems counter intuitive but ok
[19:44] <pixil> auzigog: Why does the bash script need to call another script?
[19:44] <zaxonspox> nosse1 once i had similar issue, but some other youtube  videos were played normally
[19:44] <pixil> auzigog: you need to read the bash scripting guide at tldp.org.
[19:44] <bondiblueos9> auzigog: there is something that will let you do that, but it might be easier to solve your specific problem another way
[19:44] <histo> bondiblueos9: also make sure pcspkr isn't blacklisted /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
[19:44] <Dr_Willis> blendmaster1024:  it saw my flash drives with no issue. You are trying to kick it in the head.. so ive no idea why its not seeing them..
[19:44] <pixil> read -r variable will wait for input and will assign $variable to the value of what you type in.
[19:44] <nosse1> zaxonspox: I get the same thing all over (on other sites which req'd flash)
[19:44] <Dr_Willis> blendmaster1024:  if you do a full install to a flash drive.. dont forget to tell grub to Install to the flash drive as the last step
[19:45] <azertyuio> where i have to add my public ip ? zaxonspox
[19:45] <azertyuio> sorry for the delay this the file http://paste.ubuntu.com/415706/ zaxonspox
[19:45] <blendmaster1024> Dr_Willis: i know
[19:45] <Dekko> any help would be GREATLY appreciated here....
[19:45] <Dekko> About to tear my hair out.
[19:46] <pixil> azertyuio: Why aren't you asking #Mysql ?
[19:46] <nosse1> zaxonspox: But you dont have this issue ATM? You don't happen to run amd64 and karmic?
[19:46] <themw> is 4 GB Ram and ATI-graphics-card (HDXXXX) fixed?
[19:46] <azertyuio> the return to you
[19:46] <uRock> If I were to install Jaunty in a tripple boot with Lucid and W7 already installed and I want to keep Lucid's grub as the grub loader, do I install Jaunty's grub in Jaunty's / partition?
[19:47] <gmonnie> dont want to seem impatient, but if anyone knows how to add/install screensavers, could you please help me
[19:47] <bondiblueos9> Dekko, I feel your pain, but alas I cannot help; I've never solved my samba problems and usually work around them, often by using something else
[19:47] <azertyuio> ihere for them it is not a mysql issue
[19:47] <zaxonspox> nosse1 amd64 and 9.04
[19:47] <azertyuio> zaxonspox: said something interesting but i don't know where to add my public ip on my.cnf ?
[19:48] <zaxonspox> azertyuio on line 53 you should have a bind-address = <yourIP>
[19:48] <Dekko> bondiblueos9: work around it using what?
[19:48] <Dekko> I mean I wouldn't be getting so pissed off at this if it wasn't for the fact that printing works like a CHARM!
[19:49] <azertyuio> are you refering this post ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/415706/ when you say line 53 ??

[19:51] <auzigog> bondiblueos9, pixil: i'm trying to write a script to fully automate the installation of ispCP (if you have any experience with it, that'd be awesome). It has some standard command line prompts. and then some "command line gui" prompts with a blue background and buttons. would except work for both?
[19:51] <histo> bondiblueos9: also I found this http://www.carcosa.net/jason/software/beep/
[19:52] <jeroenH> ubottu, thanks!
[19:52] <zaxonspox> azertyuio yes
[19:54] <helo> i installed ubuntu on a thumb drive... can i boot from that and install ubuntu on a local disk?
[19:54] <[Spooky]> Need big help with my Firefox... I cant rightcklick and cant click on File... And so on...
[19:54] <Dr_Willis> helo:   You did a normnal install? not a live-cd type setup with unetbootin or usb-disk-creator?
[19:55] <helo> right... is there a package that contians the ubuntu installer?
[19:55] <helo> i could change it pretty quickly if necessary :)

[19:56] <histo> helo: how ddid you create the usb?
[19:56] <theadmin> Is there a way to minimize an app to tray on it's startup (GNOME)? (Note: app does not provide this functionality)
[19:56] <Bendlas> hi folks
[19:56] <zaxonspox> {Spooky] even with accessing to this menu witl ALT+F or ALT+E ?
[19:57] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  i recakk some tools in the repos that can do that.. i just cant rember its name.. (alltray?)
[19:57] <theadmin> nevermind, figured. Alltray seems to do so
[19:57] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: Yep, guessed right :D
[19:57] <auzigog> Question: What's the name for the toolkit that allows you to display "windows" on the command line? it looks similar to windows 95
[19:57] <[Spooky]> zaxonspox: Ah that did the trick, thanks.. ;)
[19:57] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  :) i recall several for windows that also do that.
[19:58] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: Who cares of windows? That app (Teamviewer) DOES minimize to tray on Windows
[19:58] <grendal_prime> hey i need to limit access to a user to just a few commands...like tar...
[19:58] <zetharx1> when i am trying to connect to my network using 802.11, my "networkmanager applet" icon will disappear from the system tray.  how can i get it back?
[19:58] <grendal_prime> does that make sence?
[19:59] <zaxonspox> theadmin TV does minimize, by its own menu
[19:59] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  i belive with the gnome-3 stuff 'in the works' they are trying to clarify what stuff should and shoudent go to the tray :) we will have to see if things get better organized. It would be nice to have some sort of 'place' one can stick any app/minimuzed to get it out of the way
[19:59] <theadmin> zaxonspox: In the Linux release?
[19:59] <bondiblueos9> what is the first alphabetical character?
[20:00] <bondiblueos9> I mean, which character is sorted first
[20:00] <theadmin> bleh, alltray misunderstood what i want to minimize XD and it minimizes TV's contact list, not the thing itself
[20:00] <bondiblueos9> probably some punctuation
[20:00] <zaxonspox> the admin i have tested it yesterday, but as i remeber, ther was a small menu with arrow to doe many things
[20:01] <erUSUL> bondiblueos9: what app ? usually that things depend on the locale
[20:01] <ChogyDan> theadmin: maybe devilspie? or something like that.  I forget the name
[20:01] <fiveop> another key layout related problem: the default configuration for the win key before lucid allowed me to configure in the Keyboard Shortcuts window, that win key pressed opened terminals. Now any option under Keyboard->Options->Alt/Win Key behaviour does not change the win key from being interpreted as Mod4
[20:01] <fiveop> -d+s
[20:02] <bondiblueos9> erUSUL: tar; I want to tar a bunch of files but I want to rename a specific one so that it is listed by tar -t at the beginning of the archive
[20:02] <smt> hi folks
[20:04] <SirStan> Is there a document that shows how to force updates to an ubuntu machine?  We've got a number of kiosks for a lbirary and want to force them to just blindly isntall updates.  bonus points for emails on errors.
[20:04] <Losha> bondiblueos9: I don't think tar sorts the files, so if you name them members explicitly they will get tar-ed in the order on the command line. Try it and see...
[20:05] <erUSUL> SirStan: pass -y to aptitude
[20:05] <J_C> Since a recent upgrade of firefox I'm no longer able to access hotmail. Anyone else seen this problem?
[20:05] <kuta> how to convert jpg to pdf?

[20:05] <ttl-> i'm having a problem not being able to install 9.10 or 10.04 beta2, the system seems to freezes randomly without showing an error message, i suspect the onboard intel GFX 82945G is responsible, in the Xorg log i see an error X not being able to load module i810 loading the VESA module...
[20:06] <azertyuio> thanks a lot zaxonspox working your method
[20:06] <JoshuaL> SirDidi, it is possible to install security updates automatically, you can find it in the update-manager settings

[20:07] <werdnativ> portable document format
[20:07] <azertyuio> you are great thanks
[20:07] <zaxonspox> azertyuio mayby it is too obvious for them
[20:07] <tumii> Why does ubuntu give me sound only from left speaker when starting computer or even sometimes when changing song on audacious? It does work when I go to Sound Settings -> Hardware(or wtf it is) and Profile and change it to another one and then back to what it was, and then it'll work. But how could I make it that it always gives sound from both speakers?
[20:07] <C-S-B-N900> kuta: yes, just print, select print to file and choose pdf
[20:07] <J_C> Since a recent upgrade of firefox I'm no longer able to access hotmail. Anyone else seen this problem? (ubuntu 9.10 standard upgrade)

[20:18] <rrstiff> Can you explain, "chown"?

[20:19] <theadmin> nyhcjedi: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[20:19] <J_C> yes
[20:19] <erUSUL> rrstiff: use sudo ; sudo tar cvzf /backup/disk/mount/point/home.tgz /mount/point/of/home/username
[20:19] <J_C> chown -> change ownership
[20:19] <Losha> alabd: you can choose other shells, but if you just take the defaults, it will be bash...
[20:20] <J_C> or chmod -> change permissions, your choice
[20:20] <theadmin> J_C: CHange MODe actually
[20:20] <rrstiff> Thank you, erUSUL, I will try your command.
[20:20] <alabd> Losha, thanks
[20:20] <J_C> true but some don't know that ownership and mode is the same
[20:21] <erUSUL> rrstiff: that will make one archive of all the home contents be sure the fs you are creating it can hold it ( fat has a limit of ~ 4GiB )
[20:22] <cllaudyu> how can i set pppoe connection to the internet?
[20:22] <|Belenus|> Does anyone know why the dependent packages for default-jre for Karmic 404 when i try to install them?

[20:23] <theadmin> |Belenus|: Sounds like your mirror is down
[20:24] <|Belenus|> the only mirror is security.ubuntu or something similar
[20:24] <zaxonspox> taylor can you open a window in one workspace and then click to another?
[20:24] <inglor> Does anyone know a good human anatomy linux program? kind of like ADAM in windows
[20:25] <J_C> I meant mode and permissions :-)
[20:25] <taylor> No nothing happens when I click on the other space in the bottom corner of my screen
[20:25] <overmind> inglor: You can execute most of win programms with Wine
[20:25] <rrstiff> I'm not sure I understand how to type an appropriate  chown statement
[20:25] <inglor> overmind, that did not answer my question
[20:25] <theadmin> rrstiff: Example: chown 777 file
[20:25] <zaxonspox> taylor CTRL+ALT+<arrow_left/right>
[20:25] <C-S-B-N900> theadmin: wrong
[20:25] <inglor> overmind, plus I couldn't find ADAM in the wine db
[20:26] <theadmin> oops
[20:26] <_stryk3r> smt sorry for late reply thanks
[20:26] <theadmin> rrstiff: Oops, that's a chmod. Example (correct one): chown user:group file

[20:26] <theadmin> You can omit the 'user' or the ':group' parts at wish
[20:26] <taylor> zaxonspox: nothing happens
[20:26] <rrstiff> Does 777 mean all access to everyone?  How do I point the chown command at the home directory on the computer's Hard Disk drive?
[20:27] <tertitten> after disabling compiz ALT+TAB shortcut got disabled, how do I enable that shortcut to swap windows ?
[20:28] <C-S-B-N900> rrstiff: 777 = rwx to everyone
[20:28] <C-S-B-N900> rrstiff: you probably dont want to do that.

[20:28] <taylor> zaxonspox: any suggestions?
[20:29] <zaxonspox> taylor no clue, do you use compiz?
[20:29] <inglor> Does anyone know a good human anatomy linux program? kind of like ADAM in windows
[20:29] <taylor> zaxonspox: yes I do
[20:29] <jsec_laptop> !repeat | inglor
[20:29] <taylor> zaxonspox: I don't use many features though
[20:30] <zaxonspox> taylor oo, how many workspaces? do you enabled Cube plugin?
[20:31] <taylor> zaxonspox: just two workspaces, I tried to enable the plugin but it didnt work for some reason
[20:31] <zaxonspox> taylor get some error? try setting 4 workspaces
[20:31] <|Belenus|> is it possible to install a package like 'openjdk-6-jre-lib 6b16-1.6.1-3ubuntu1 ' when the only mirror "security.ubuntu.com" give me 404 not found error?
[20:31] <hololight> Looking for older versions of iwlwifi5000 firmware. Most distros are shipping ver3 and also that is the only ver available at Intel's site. Thoughts? (Not in a situation where I can just upgrade kernel/ module.
[20:32] <frostburn> dear reddit, how should i spend my paycheck
[20:32] <hololight> Bel: Could the version you are looking for be wrong/ old?
[20:32] <frostburn> whups
[20:32] <taylor> zaxonspox: No errors. Nothing at all. It simply doesnt do anything...I just enabled four spaces and still the same state of nothingness
[20:32] <silentx> Hey ,, I want to ask how to burn a Mp3 CD that used the Space of the CD not the length of it .. I've ubuntu 9.10 and I've googled and download lots of programs but nothing get it work ! ...
[20:33] <switch10_> silentx: burn a data disk with brasero
[20:33] <|Belenus|> hololight: i dont think so, through aptitude and synaptic i am getting the same errors even when i download the package files manually
[20:33] <zaxonspox> silentx Brasero, use data mode
[20:34] <silentx> no not a datadisk .. it is a MP3 disk and works in my car but it uses the data mode ..
[20:34] <zaxonspox> taylor no clue, did you tryed to turn compiz off, and then switch workspaces?
[20:34] <switch10_> silentx: exactly.  you burn an 'mp3 disk' in data mode.
[20:35] <taylor> zaxonspox: How do I turn it off?
[20:35] <zaxonspox> silentx so audio CD you mean?
[20:35] <rrstiff> Please forgive me, I had to be away for a few minutes,  What i WANT TO DO IS GIVE THE HOME FOLDER ON THE COMPUTER ACCESS so I can copy it to an external drive before I reinstall Ubuntu-  What is the best command to make that happen?
[20:35] <silentx> yes but " Audio CD " uses " length 80 min
[20:35] <delac> rstiff - you are on livecd?
[20:35] <rrstiff> I am using the terminal from the Ubuntu CD to access files on the computer.
[20:36] <delac> terminal?
[20:36] <delac> no gui?
[20:36] <zaxonspox> taylor System>>Preferences>> ?Layout? >> Visual Effects Tab
[20:36] <silentx> but i want to use the " 700MB " because in the Audio CD i'll only use the 80min even if the files less than 700MB
[20:36] <rrstiff> Yes.
[20:36] <Barnabas> silentx, If you put mp3's on a cd you will be able to fit a lot more than the 80 mins of uncompressed sound onto it
[20:36] <switch10_> silentx: yup that is how it works.  data will use the 700mb, audio cd will use 80 min
[20:36] <delac> you cant access gui from livecd?
[20:36] <silentx> then is it going to work on my CD player ?
[20:36] <krel> has anyone installed ubuntu on a new macbook pro?
[20:36] <C-S-B-N900> rrstiff: sudo cp will do it.
[20:36] <hololight> So to sum it up, just burn the mp3 files to cd under the 'data' option
[20:37] <rrstiff> Yes, I can access the GUI, I just thought typing the commands from the terminal might be the way to go.  Is there a better way?
[20:37] <Barnabas> silentx, if your cd player will play mp3s
[20:37] <krel> curious if it works, especially with the new 15" hybrid model
[20:37] <C-S-B-N900> or sudo rsync
[20:37] <zaxonspox> silentx: if it supports mp3 files
[20:37] <silentx> :S is that automatically ? :S
[20:37] <switch10_> silentx: if you burn it as an audio project it should.  if you burn it as data it will work on some
[20:37] <delac> in terminal - write: sudo nautilus
[20:37] <delac> you should get superuser nautilus
[20:38] <lalalol> !ca
[20:38] <silentx> :S I've Installed nerolinux but it also doesn't give this options as in windows but oky i will try it thanks alot

[21:01] <ubuntu> hi. running live cd. trying to get backup to format system. but some of the files got corrupted and im not able to copy / delete them anymore. I get "Input / output Error" when i do sudo rm -rf * . cant go to windows. forums have that as the only solution..
[21:01] <ttl-> robertf: having the same prob with 9.10 on the machine
[21:01] <ubuntu> neospreshaw, yes. u can upgrade anytime
[21:01] <zaxonspox> ttl-  because integrated Intel GFX
[21:01] <Losha> neospreshaw: you can, but note that 10.04 probably won't be stable for another couple of months yet...
[21:02] <ttl-> zaxonspox: yes
[21:02] <walt_> How can I get a list of the packages (.deb files) on the 9.10 install CD? I can get a list of packages on my up-to-date system and diff them.
[21:02] <robertf> ttl-: Is the problem reported?
[21:02] <VCoolio> chrometiger: what are you compiling anyway? if there is also a version of that in the repos you can do "sudo apt-get build-dep <blah>" to get building dependencies

[21:03] <bLACKLOTUS|> ok, thank you all
[21:04] <robertf> Are there users using Lucid in command line?
[21:04] <Losha> walt_: for your friend, the only way I can think of is to get someone who has an up-to-date 9.10 installation to send you a list of the packages on their system. Then you could download them manually, burn them to CD, and take them to your friend. See also http://aptoncd.sourceforge.net/
[21:04] <ghufran> histo: i was copying data when the cable got removed and now its not letting me delete those files.
[21:05] <zaxonspox> ttl- did you need to compile something or get some pkg or it is working from kernel?
[21:05] <ttl-> zaxonspox: for 9.10 it seemed to work  after install from CDROM until i installed all updates
[21:05] <chrometiger> E: Unable to lock the download directory
[21:05] <neospreshaw> kernel pnnick pics
[21:05] <Losha> neospreshaw: I don't understand you. What is 1.04?
[21:05] <zaxonspox> ttl- i have a comp with 82845 chip and couldn make a proper driver
[21:05] <robertf> ttl-: i only use main tree
[21:06] <Sk_Lg> I just installed ubuntu on my main hard disk, and when I connect the ethernet cord (directly from the modem) to the comp it doesn't recognize the connection. Although, when I plug the cord in this computer the internet works fine? what packet should I dl, or settings should I manually put in to ensure the connection?
[21:06] <walt_> Thanks, Losha, I'll do that. I'd hoped I could eliminate the packages on the 9.10 install CD
[21:06] <ghufran> Sk_Lg: doesnt look like an issue with ubuntu
[21:06] <Sk_Lg> should I reinstall then?
[21:07] <ttl-> zaxonspox: it seems there is no driver, i looked in the xorg log, there is a error of X being unable to load i810 module and loads the VESA module
[21:07] <walt_> Sk_Lg try the command "sudo ifup -a" after you plug the cable in.
[21:07] <Sk_Lg> because after putting some manual info in, I got a response on the network activity
[21:07] <zaxonspox> ttl- i get it
[21:07] <ghufran> Sk_Lg: it might be an issue with the cable. is it cross over? are u setting up the modem for the first time?
[21:07] <Losha> walt_: I understand. The only way I know to do that is to install 9.10 from CD, make a list of its packages (dpkg --get-selections "*") then update, then relist the packages, and subtract the first list from the second...
[21:08] <ttl-> zaxonspox: i810 (Module does not exist, 0) or something like that
[21:08] <Sk_Lg> no, it used to run to a router, and the internet worked fine before the C: format and installation of ubuntu
[21:08] <ttl-> zaxonspox: but the system does not hang, i'm able to login with ssh after freeze
[21:08] <neospreshaw> Losha: 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope
[21:09] <walt_> I guess I'll  (dpkg --get-selections "*") on my up-to-date system, DL ALL the .debs, and do the filtering on his system. Thanks, Bye.
[21:09] <perscitus> Anyone having issues with live.gnome.org?
[21:09] <neospreshaw> no
[21:09] <ghufran> Sk_Lg: then try "ifup -a" in terminal
[21:10] <roderick> ubuntu keeps freezing on me
[21:10] <cornbread> Hey WeblionX, I'm still getting the networking issues.  It's so strange.  One minute the page works and then I follow a link on the same domain and everything and it sits there loading forever
[21:10] <neospreshaw> Jaunty Jackalope? can i get it
[21:10] <Losha> walt_: all the debs you've downloaded since install should be in /var/cache/apt/archive unless you cleared the cache...
[21:10] <ttl-> roderick: intel GFX ?
[21:10] <cornbread> wrong channel, sry

[21:16] <zaxonspox> ghufran: if partition is mounted, unmount it to remove keys in Gparted
[21:16] <ghufran> h00k, sorry. i thought i used a '*' :P
[21:16] <erUSUL> ghufran: as i said gparted wont touch a mounted partition you have to umount it

[21:17] <ghufran> erUSUL, zaxonspox: yes. didnt read ur earlier message. this xchat with the live cd doesnt change text with ur nick in the text. (bug?)
[21:17] <perscitus> mccool_1985,   it was in google result
[21:17] <mccool_1985> can someone give me a clue if prelink is usefull in karmic? i have a relatively fast laptop
[21:17] <erUSUL> ghufran: dunno
[21:17] <zaxonspox> roderick i have had ATI 9600 some years ago :D
[21:17] <ghufran> h00k, haha good one. ok, ill take care
[21:17] <mccool_1985> perscitus: use the provide link i gave... it workes
[21:18] <jtaylor13> I have a question.I have ubuntu and can't my sprint evdo to work,It did sign on 1 time.It sees the card.
[21:18] <mccool_1985> *works
[21:18] <perscitus> mccool_1985,   the link was in the google result too
[21:18] <thebruce> can i 'test' out kde on my system and the remove it to go back to gnome?
[21:18] <mccool_1985> so?
[21:18] <roderick> yea ive had this card for awhile
[21:18] <ttl-> roderick: you need to install the openssh-server if you didn't already
[21:19] <ttl-> roderick: yes from another machine
[21:19] <lakitu> why would http://pastebin.com/59Dcdg1V as a grub.cfg just shutdown on input+enter?
[21:19] <Losha> thebruce: yes. Depending on your version of gdm, if you install both, it should allow you to select between kde and gnome at login time...
[21:19] <ttl-> roderick: i'm not sure you problem is gfx related
[21:19] <thebruce> Losha how would i go about that?
[21:19] <ttl-> roderick: i'm not sure you problem is related to you graphics card
[21:20] <ttl-> your*
[21:20] <Losha> thebruce: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/config-desktop/C/other-desktops.html
[21:20] <thebruce> im on 9.10 shoudl that matter? Losha?
[21:20] <roderick> hmm...well i still need to fix it
[21:20] <Losha> thebruce: I don't think it will matter, but i can't guarantee it, since I'm still on 8.04...
[21:21] <thebruce> you're still on Hardy?
[21:21] <thebruce> wow
[21:21] <thebruce> why not switch?
[21:21] <zaxonspox> Losha yes, why?
[21:21] <Losha> thebruce: because 8.04 is solid as a rock...
[21:21] <mccool_1985> i gave up hardy a looooong time ago
[21:21] <thebruce> Losha gotcha
[21:21] <delac> thebruce: installing kde on ubuntu is as easy as installing kubuntu-desktop package from repositories
[21:21] <thebruce> Losha can you use most all the features 9.10 can?
[21:21] <roderick> it seems to only freeze when i play music
[21:21] <switch10_> thebruce: why switch is a better question..
[21:22] <thebruce> switch10_, prob a good poing
[21:22] <delac> thebruce: however, removing it afterwards might be problematic
[21:22] <thebruce> b/c people like to have the latest and greatest
[21:22] <thebruce> delac? really
[21:22] <Losha> thebruce: all the security fixes get backported, but not the new features. That's how come it's so stable. There aren't any 9.10 features I can't live without, so it's not an issue for me...
[21:22] <yaaar> howdy
[21:22] <delac> thebruce: yes
[21:22] <switch10_> the latest is definitely not always the greatest...
[21:23] <jamil_1> Hi when I try to startr a parallel gnome session on the same  machine by pressing alt+f2 and the entering startx -- :1 i get the error: no protocol specified. Help!
[21:23] <thebruce> is kde 'heavier' than gnome?
[21:23] <delac> thebruce: you would have to remove every backage separately
[21:23] <delac> thebruce: and that is several hundreds of packages
[21:23] <ZykoticK9> thebruce, as far a memory is concerned YES kde is heavier then gnome
[21:23] <thebruce> ahh ok
[21:23] <helo> !(latest && greatest)
[21:23] <thebruce> no need for me i have a slow system
[21:23] <roderick> any ideas??
[21:24] <delac> thebruce: however, if you have big hard drive, there is no reason to remove them
[21:24] <ZykoticK9> thebruce, a comparison of the various DEs using 10.04 http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux_desktop_vitals&num=1
[21:24] <daniskami> thebruce: if you have a slow system, you might consider Xfce, LXDE or just a window manager instead of GNOME and KDE
[21:24] <delac> thebruce: you can use whicever you want
[21:24] <Losha> People seem pretty brainwashed by the idea that newer is better. Works ok for refrigerators. Not so good with cars. And very poorly with software...
[21:25] <thebruce> very cool
[21:25] <thebruce> i gotta go thanks so much
[21:25] <switch10_> Losha: agreed.
[21:25] <zaxonspox> Losha yes, i am staing on 9.04 because Canonical took away some features
[21:25] <ttl-> roderick: not really
[21:26] <Losha> zaxonspox: ah, I wondered why you were still on 9.04...
[21:26] <ghufran> zaxonspox, like what?
[21:26] <jt76> dose anyone know how to remove all themes from ubuntu 9.10
[21:27] <zaxonspox> ghufran: like cool for me GDM logon screen with options like remote login (like in LiveCD) and looks like Windows login screen without Remote
[21:27] <jt76> i installed a theme and i cant remove it i tired from the Appearance screen to remove it but it just dosnt work ..
[21:27] <mccool_1985> jt76: check /usr/share/themes
[21:27] <mccool_1985> ?
[21:28] <k1rb> How do I kill a panel that is set to autohide that isn't popping up???
[21:28] <jt76> mccool_1985: already done removed it from there and before that i removed it from the PPT the theme is the elemantary project theme
[21:28] <zaxonspox> ghufran Losha the Ub10.04 annoys me more: candy colors, moving close/min/max buttons to the left etc
[21:28] <ghufran> ok i can talk in this irc client but cant apparently browse websites.
[21:29] <mccool_1985> klrb: you know which process? check it with # ps aux | grep **processname** and kill it
[21:29] <mccool_1985> klrb: or use killall *processname*
[21:29] <ghufran> zaxonspox, im actually using 1004 live cd right now .. kinda like it .. and im sure theres some option to move the buttons?
[21:29] <k1rb> mccool_1985, I don't know the process... is there a way to find it?
[21:29] <h00k> !lucid | zaxonspox, ghufran
[21:29] <mccool_1985> jt76: thats as far as my knowledge goes :-)
[21:29] <gsp2009> hello all... I am completely wiping my HDD, and I will be reinstalling 9.10. Can someone help with backup questions?
[21:30] <switch10_> k1rb: you can use *top* as well
[21:30] <mccool_1985> gsp2009: sure, what up?
[21:30] <mccool_1985> klrb: any idea what program it is?
[21:30] <k1rb> It's the panel that is at the bottom when you install...
[21:30] <switch10_> k1rb: open a terminal and type:   top
[21:31] <k1rb> like the task bar
[21:31] <ghufran> h00k, we're not discussing any issues with it .. or asking questions about Lucid
[21:31] <k1rb> I typed top already, idk what I'm looking for
[21:31] <gsp2009> mccool_1985, so I was thinking of using simplebackup... and just including my /home/user dir... then formatting, reinstalling from scratch and restoring the home dir to its own partition. You think that would work ok?
[21:31] <jt76> mccool_1985: Thanks for trying !!! -- Dose anyone else know how to remove a spesific theme?
[21:31] <zaxonspox> ghufran: i am wondering if h00k isnt a bot like ubottu
[21:31] <MrKeuner> hello, How can I get the option wpa2-business in the dialog for adding a new ssid?
[21:31] <jamil_1> Hi when I try to startr a parallel gnome session on the same  machine by pressing alt+f2 and the entering startx -- :1 i get the error: no protocol specified. Help!
[21:31] <gsp2009> mccool_1985, you think I should include anything in /etc or /var or /usr?
[21:31] <h00k> ghufran: I'm just trying to show you a place where Lucid discussion is welcome and invited
[21:32] <zaxonspox> jamil_1: you cannot start another X session i think
[21:32] <mccool_1985> gsp2009: not sure... it should work i guess... on the other hand it would be an idea to resize your current partition and put your /home/user on a different partition... that way you don't have to backup anything i guess
[21:33] <kaolbrec> Which version of wine is actually in the repos?
[21:33] <erUSUL> !info wine
[21:33] <jamil_1> zaxonspox: no it used to work earlier. I dont know what happened that now it is giving error
[21:33] <erUSUL> !info wine1.2
[21:33] <mccool_1985> gsp2009: i don't think /usr should be backed up, but you might ask others about their opinion... it's just a matter of how much you want to preserve
[21:34] <k1rb> switch10, I already have top running, It's the normal task bar that Ubuntu always has. I changed it to be on the left side of the screen instead of the bottom, and autohide... now it won't pop up and I can't click on it even though I can see part of it hiding... Also I've restarted and it hasn't changed. It still won't pop up
[21:34] <zaxonspox> jamil_1: type me this cmd more, i will try by me
[21:34] <roderick> is there something i can do so it doesnt go so slow?
[21:34] <kaolbrec> erUSUL, apt-get install wine1.12 should get the later version then?
[21:34] <erUSUL> kaolbrec: correct
[21:34] <jamil_1> zaxonspox: startx -- :1
[21:34] <zaxonspox> roderick: install ATI Prop Drivers
[21:34] <kaolbrec> erUSUL, thanks
[21:35] <erUSUL> kaolbrec: they also maintaina ppa (i use it) with   Candidate: 1.1.42-0ubuntu1
[21:35] <roderick> is it on ati website?
[21:35] <gsp2009> mccool_1985, sorry... suffered a crash
[21:35] <jamil_1> fzaxonspox: first switch to another screen by  ctl+alt + f2
[21:35] <zaxonspox> jamil_1: alright i have started it, so cmd is correct, you have some misconfig
[21:36] <MrKeuner> help
[21:36] <MrKeuner> !help
[21:36] <zaxonspox> jamil_1: i was searching this ability since long time
[21:36] <gsp2009> mccool_1985, so I was saying... I have a 500 gb, with a windows partition with the boot sector. Now I wanna just get rid of any memories of Billy altogether (finally)
[21:36] <Losha> gsp2009: IMO, only /home and half a dozen selected files from /etc need to be backed up. The rest comes back when you do an install so there's hardly any point saving them...
[21:37] <jamil_1> zaxonspox: yp. it was working fine a few day before. May be some update broke it but I want it back :(
[21:37] <zaxonspox> jamil_1: just get some error or kickoff
[21:37] <gsp2009> Losha, any specifics on the files you would keep from /etc?
[21:37] <fosco_> nas
[21:37] <|Belenus|> can anyone help me fix my Eclipse on Karmic that when run, only shows a small window that cant be closed?
[21:37] <roderick> zaxonspox where do i install iit from?
[21:37] <switch10_> gsp2009: files that you have edited.  i.e. fstab, sources.list, etc
[21:38] <gsp2009> switch10_, :) gotcha. thanks.
[21:38] <jamil_1> zaxonspox: ??
[21:38] <shawnboy> I'll try again. What is Plymouth?
[21:38] <roderick> zaxonspox: where can i download it from
[21:38] <Tapke> Nigthy night..
[21:39] <gsp2009> switch10_, Losha : so you think that simplebackup is a good way? or should I do a workup with rsync?
[21:39] <zaxonspox> roderick: System>>Administration>>Drivers or Prop Drivers
[21:39] <mccool_1985> gsp2009: i should say google some info on resizing your current partition and make another, on the other hand, is it much work to backup your /home/user on a external hdd or dvd? in that case, i should use that option... this will only preserve your downloads, documents etc... programs are lost though
[21:39] <trijntje> Hi all, when I kill the X server my pc hangs and I have to do a cold boot, in what log should I look for information?
[21:39] <roderick> zaxonspox: oh ok thx
[21:39] <Losha> gsp2009: I knew you'd ask. It depends on what you have configured. To be safe, you might want to keep all of /etc. personally, I only keep the following /etc files: auto.*, exports, fstab, hosts, network/interfaces, passwd, sensors.conf, smartd.conf, samba/smb.conf, ssh, ssmtp, X11/xorg.conf
[21:39] <switch10_> gsp2009: rsync is much better in my opinion...  so many more options.
[21:40] <k1rb> So what would the process be called for the default panel?
[21:40] <nyhcjedi> how would i run this file in ubuntu
[21:40] <zaxonspox> jamil_1: desktop have started, i saw it, then i switched back to F7 , then go back to F1 and GFX get dead and console came
[21:40] <gsp2009> mccool_1985, yeah.. I have a 1 gb external... plus I will prob use aptoncd
[21:40] <nyhcjedi> VMware-Workstation-Full-7.0.1-227600.x86_64.bundle
[21:40] <roderick> zaxonspox: i cant find the drivers tab
[21:40] <switch10_> gsp2009: but if SB does what you want, use it.
[21:40] <gsp2009> switch10_, cool. thanks.
[21:40] <mccool_1985> switch10_: can you give some info about rsync? whats the benefit?
[21:40] <Losha> gsp2009: I've never used simplebackup. But as long as it works, and you know how to drive it, it's ok...
[21:40] <jamil_1> zaxonspox: u started on f1 or f2 ?
[21:41] <switch10_> mccool_1985: benefit?  updates only files that have changed for one..
[21:41] <kreno5> gah I just reinstalled but I forgot the name of a program I used all the time before.  I would bind it to a key combination, and when i triggered it, a simple one line textbar would pop up on the very top of my screen, and as I typed it would narrow down possible commands to execute. for example I'd type "ope" and it would narrow it down to opera and hitting enter would fire it up.  Does anyone have any idea what I'm talking about?  I miss it sor
[21:41] <zaxonspox> roderick: it has icon of pci device with keylock
[21:41] <zaxonspox> jamil_1: started on F1
[21:41] <gsp2009> Losha, thanks.,
[21:41] <erUSUL> kaolbrec: gnome-do ?
[21:41] <erUSUL> kreno5: gnome-do ?
[21:41] <erUSUL> kaolbrec: sorry; not for you
[21:41] <Losha> gsp2009: as someone suggested above, I keep /home on its own filesystem, so I only back it up once in a while, and those /etc files. It makes backup/restore/upgrade a snap...
[21:42] <jamil_1> zaxonspox: and there was no error ?
[21:42] <matju> if I have a Pentium M, running Ubuntu 9.10, then do i get hyperthreading support ? and then, how would that manifest itself in applications such as "top" ?
[21:42] <switch10_> mccool_1985: unbelievably versatile for 2.  the man pages are about 500 pages long...
[21:42] <roderick> zaxonspox:it says i dont have any proprietary drivers in use
[21:42] <mccool_1985> ny the way, is there anyone who has experience with using win7 in a virtualbox? i'm trying to enable direct3d using the wine3d installer or the virtualbox-additions, and i can't get it to work. I guess it's the problem with having DirectX11 in Win7
[21:42] <yk1000> Ex-Chat
[21:42] <kaolbrec> erUSUL, I guessed ;) -- is it possible to save the ppa key somehow, and import it to software sources?
[21:42] <mccool_1985> switch10_: I'll dig into it tomorrow
[21:42] <zaxonspox> jamil_1: no error, desktop loaded, so i switch back to F7 to tell you, when i get back to F1 terminal came with some screen error etc
[21:42] <erUSUL> !gpgerr | kaolbrec
[21:43] <kaolbrec> erUSUL, as far as I'm aware it's the uni proxy blocking gpg key transactions. I'll give it a shot though.
[21:43] <gsp2009> Losha, I think once I get my drive reformatted, and partitioned to have /home on it's own, I will set up and incremental to my external with /var and /etc... that way in the event of a failure, I am good. For now, I will just backup my user data... I just want my drive reclaimed from Windoze.
[21:43] <frxstrem> is it possible to create a pop-up message in the shell (like a warning or something like that)?
[21:43] <zaxonspox> frxstrem: yes you need a packet like...
[21:44] <erUSUL> kaolbrec: maybe you can force to use http ... http://keyserver.ubuntu.com
[21:44] <erUSUL> frxstrem: zenity
[21:44] <alb> how to use anjunta
[21:44] <frxstrem> erUSUL: okay, thanks :)
[21:44] <zaxonspox> frxstrem: dialog
[21:44] <gsp2009> Now to decide if I am gonna chance the beta... (10.04) as a fresh install.
[21:44] <frxstrem> zaxonspox: thanks to you too :)
[21:44] <hamzaatova2> how can i solve the problem of freezed computer upon copying a file and a slow file transfer??????
[21:44] <Cryp71c> which apt package should I use for an apache2 installation with plans to run https and php?
[21:45] <Losha> gsp2009: sounds good. I think you can forget about /var. There's nothing in there worth keeping. I also keep a package list (dpkg --get-selections "*" >myselections) and the output of fdisk -l (in case something goes wrong with the partition tables)
[21:45] <alb> someone know how to use anjunt
[21:45] <alb> a
[21:45] <guntbert> !lamp | Cryp71c
[21:45] <mccool_1985> *bump* Is there anyone who has experience with using win7 in a virtualbox? i'm trying to enable direct3d using the wine3d installer or the virtualbox-additions, and i can't get it to work. I guess it's the problem with having DirectX11 in Win7
[21:45] <zaxonspox> Cryp71c: apache2 php5
[21:45] <gsp2009> Losha, nice tip.. thanks.
[21:46] <guntbert> mccool_1985: this is no forum - so "bump" is kind of senseless here
[21:46] <erUSUL> mccool_1985: #vbox
[21:46] <mccool_1985> guntbert: yeah i understand... i thought give it a try
[21:46] <mccool_1985> erUSUL: tnx!
[21:47] <roderick__> zaxonspox: do i have to install the driver for ubuntu?
[21:47] <kaolbrec> erUSUL, trying to use http://keyserver.ubuntu.com gives me "no key data found"
[21:47] <Cryp71c> zaxonspox, the code I have (and intend to run on this server) references another server on our network, but I can't change the code from "localhost", can I add in host entries to direct localhost requests to that server, would that interfere with anything else/
[21:47] <kaolbrec> erUSUL, although I'm not sure if that could be me failing to use the correct key
[21:48] <erUSUL> kaolbrec: well; just ignore the gpg warning then ;)
[21:48] <zaxonspox> roderick__: ee? i dont understand. when not for Ubuntu then for what? mandriva?
[21:48] <kaolbrec> erUSUL, damned proxy. I hate warning popups :(
[21:48] <roderick__> zaxonspox: no it says i dont have any drivers in use
[21:48] <belus> Hello is there an ubuntu hardware channel or I can ask my question here?
[21:49] <zaxonspox> roderick__: list is enpty? or it says you are not using any drivers?
[21:49] <gsp2009> belus, just ask your question
[21:49] <kaolbrec> belus, all questions here
[21:49] <roderick__> zaxonspox:both of those
[21:49] <zaxonspox> Cryp71c: iam not correctly understand what you want to achive
[21:50] <belus> I have a brand new dell inspiron 1545 and I use it as a desktop (10h a day) with the battery in(it's a 6 cell battery) what I should do...take it out or leave it in?
[21:50] <Losha> Cryp71c: you can try it, but lots of programs use localhost to talk to processes on the same box, so I think it may rip a hole in the fabric of space and time. Be prepared to restore the former hosts file from the live cd...
[21:50] <mccool_1985> out
[21:50] <zaxonspox> roderick__: then try to search ati site for this drivers, the have user freandly driver search
[21:50] <gsp2009> belus, will it even run on power without the battery?
[21:50] <belus> I've heard people talking that you should remove the battery and charge it...once a month...this way you will save some battery life...
[21:50] <mitya> hi guys
[21:51] <mitya> I have just installed 10.4
[21:51] <roderick__> zaxonspox: for which os am i installing?
[21:51] <belus> gsp2009,  I didn't understood your question...I have the ac plug aswell, of course it will...with the ac cord plugged in
[21:51] <mitya> my mc does not show the directories in bold... Is it a bug ir a feature ??
[21:51] <Losha> mitya: then you belong in #ubuntu+1 where they discuss all things 10.04...
[21:51] <mitya> Losha: ok
[21:51] <Cryp71c> belus, take the battery out when on guaranteed AC power.
[21:52] <frxstrem> is there a program like "The Sims" for Linux?
[21:52] <trijntje> Hi all, I want to diagnose a lockup on my pc, but all logs appear to miss it. What can I do to debug this further?
[21:52] <belus> My question is what should I do, take the battery out or leave it in...will that heat damage my li ion 6 cell battery?This is what I heard
[21:52] <Cryp71c> frxstrem, there's a program called "Wine" which might run the sims.
[21:52] <erUSUL> belus: with it in you have a free UPS
[21:52] <frxstrem> Cryp71c: don't you think I have already tried it - it does only run The Sims 3 (according to the Wine AppDB), which my computer is far too old to run anyway
[21:52] <belus> erUSUL,  I know but I don't need one really, I'm not working on super stuff and my power connection is very good:) no electricity crashes and so
[21:52] <gsp2009> belus, I am assuming it is a laptop? In my experience, some will not run without the battery as it is required to complete the circuit. Did you try it? as as erUSUL said, you are conditioning your power with the battery in it. No data loss on power outage.
[21:53] <switch10_> belus: sorry i missed the first part of your question, but if you are trying to conserve your battery, leave it a a 30% charge, and store it in the fridge
[21:53] <zaxonspox> roderick__: Linux x86 if you have 32 bit ver, if not, then 64
[21:53] <belus> switch10_,  fridge?:)
