[14:09] <IdleOne> BlackArchDog: Why do you insist on pushing the limits of our patience, please keep the commentary to a extreme minimum and help with Ubuntu.
[14:10] <BlackArchDog> I'm leaving what a joke... Your going isolate yourselves from the whole irc channel good luck... Figure out why know one is going to use ubuntu in the near future with these remarks good bye
[14:11] <Ramses> Kai, is that you?
[14:15] <diamonds> UNITY:
[14:15] <klingelbart> after installing packages via apt-get install, in wich directory are the files stored?
[14:15] <diamonds> how can I change the user image?
[14:15] <diamonds> user icon?
[14:16] <escott> klingelbart, depends. most binaries in /usb/bin but its not like windows there is no program files/program name directory
[14:16] <klingelbart> escott thx
[14:16] <klingelbart> excott: thx
[14:17] <designbybeck> has anyone tried this for Ubuntu 11.04? http://helmuthdu.deviantart.com/art/CONKY-Colors-244793180 Looks pretty sweet!
[14:17] <EgyParadox> klingeblart: You can check synaptic , it shows where files are installed for every package
[14:17] <diamonds> where's a good place for a file to share across users?
[14:17] <genii-around> klingelbart: If you look up a package on http://packages.ubuntu.com/ and go to the file list, it shows you the directories it puts all the files of that package into
[14:18] <ArtVanda1ae> diamonds, /tmp :)
[14:18] <dr_willis> theres rarey a need to go to where a program is installed to. :)
[14:18] <ArtVanda1ae> diamonds, note: you'll lose everything in /tmp when you restart the machine
[14:18] <minimec> klingelbart: base files and libs are stored in /usr/lib/yoursoftware. Shared stuff would be in /usr/share/yoursoftware; docs in /usr/share/doc/yoursoftware; systemwide configuration in /etc/yoursoftware; binary (launcher) in /usr/bin/
[14:18] <thunsucker> diamonds: you could also create a generic "share" user and store it in their home directory in a folder, then give permissions to that folder to the other users
[14:19] <diamonds> ArtVanda1ae: yeah that doesn't seem like the best place...
[14:19] <diamonds> I'm trying /home/me/public
[14:19] <diamonds> s/public/Public/
[14:19] <escott> diamonds, generally you put the users into the same group and then chgrp the file to that group. most $HOME is at least readable to others so I can create a file in my $HOME and share it to others by chgrp to their group
[14:19] <thunsucker> diamonds: that would work just gotta make sure you set the permissions correctly
[14:20] <Gentoo64> diamonds- or use a different drive / partition?
[14:20] <thunsucker> diamonds: dropbox is perfect for that
[14:21] <diamonds> heh...
[14:21] <yoshi_> yh
[14:21] <diamonds> I'm surprised there isn't some built in functionality for this
[14:21] <JakeR003> when i restart ubuntu how to boot into GRUB menu?
[14:21] <diamonds> "/home/shared" or something
[14:22] <yoshi_> Any 1 know why i can't turn on advenced vizualation desktop?
[14:22] <Gentoo64> JakeR003- i think hold shift
[14:22] <escott> diamonds, /home/shared presumes that there is only one group of users who need to share things
[14:22] <thunsucker> diamonds: i think that is what the user's Public Folder is for
[14:22] <mattgyver> JakeR003, hold down the shift key while rebooting I believe
[14:22] <diamonds> thunsucker: yeah but other users can't list it
[14:22] <diamonds> I'm checking the permissions now...
[14:22] <escott> thunsucker, diamonds public folder is for network sharing
[14:22] <mattgyver> JakeR003, sorry didnt see Gentoo64's response
[14:23] <diamonds> escott: ahhh...
[14:23] <yoshi_> any 1 know?
[14:23] <diamonds> escott: 755 Public/
[14:23] <compdoc> yoshi_, what is that?
[14:23] <diamonds> why can't I get a listing from another user?
[14:24] <escott> diamonds, thats the same set of permissions for every other folder in $HOME. there is some special logic to enable samba sharing of ~/Public
[14:24] <escott> diamonds, ls /home/joe
[14:24] <diamonds> why is permission for ls denied if I have x privs on the directory?
[14:25] <diamonds> is the whole home directory just "special" protected?
[14:25] <jrib> diamonds: because you need to be able to read
[14:25] <diamonds> jrib: I have that as well
[14:25] <diamonds> 755
[14:25] <escott> diamonds, by default you have the ability to browse joe's folder and see his filenames. you can even read his files, but you can't modify them or add files to his folder
[14:25] <diamonds> escott: not here...
[14:25] <jrib> diamonds: pastebin your terminal session and « ls -ld /path/to/directory/in/question »
[14:26] <Lacabra> hi penguins
[14:27] <Lacabra> I'm having a lot of problems configuring a LG screen
[14:27] <Mediii> Hi there
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> Lacabra: what video chip does your video card use?
[14:27] <Lacabra> anyone can redirect to any tutorial that can halpme
[14:27] <Mediii> how can I get info about cpu and dusk usage ?
[14:27] <Lacabra> I'm looking for it
[14:27] <Mediii> is there any command for that ? I m working with a repote server
[14:28] <Mediii> remote*
[14:28] <usr13> Mediii: top
[14:28] <Lacabra> I use a small toshiba netbook with a external 21,5" display
[14:28] <usr13> Mediii: and  df
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Mediii: df -h
[14:28] <thunsucker> diamonds: here is a simple solution. create a group called 'family', add your users to that group, make a directory /home/family, change owner of that directory to family:root, add a shortcut to each user's desktop with the path
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Lacabra: again, what is the video chip?
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Mediii: top    will show you CPU usage
 I'm looking for it
[14:29] <thunsucker> diamonds: oops actually change owner to diamonds:family
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> Lacabra: lspci | grep -i vga
[14:29] <thunsucker> that way you own it, and they have access
[14:29] <minimec> Lacabra: open a terminal and give us the result of 'lspci | grep VGA'
[14:29] <Mediii> thanks usr13 ActionParsnip
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> Mediii: or:  sudo apt-get install sysstat; sudo mpstat
[14:29] <escott> diamonds, ls requires read permissions. it is possible to cd into a directory but not have read permissions.
 Now I'm nos using linux, I'm back to windows beacause of the screen, but I'm trying to get back to linux again beacause windows is so extremely slow
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> Lacabra: either OS will tell you the chip
[14:30] <escott> diamonds you could use that to "hide" a folder inside another folder. revoke read on the directory, and only those who know the other folder inside it exists will be able to cd into the inner folder
[14:31] <diamonds> http://i.imgur.com/gDvnZ.png
[14:31] <jrib> diamonds: ls -ld /home/sequoia   please do not use imgur to paste text
[14:32] <diamonds> jrib: it was to show you the two different users
[14:32] <diamonds> jrib: 700
[14:32] <jrib> diamonds: well there you go
[14:33] <diamonds> OK so you can't list a dir with 777 you don't have read perms on the parent?
    here it is Mobile Intel® GMA 950
[14:33] <jrib> diamonds: if you don't have executable permissions on all parent directories, yes...
[14:33] <diamonds> x or r?
[14:33] <jrib> diamonds: x...
[14:33] <escott> diamonds, did you chmod o-x on $HOME
[14:34] <jnsl_> when i run free in my terminal, to see what memory is available, is it displaying the numbers in mb or ?
[14:34] <escott> jnsl_, free --help
[14:34] <Faiob1> bonjour tout le monde
[14:34] <usr13> jnsl_: k
[14:34] <jrib> jnsl_: free -m  for megabytes
[14:34] <diamonds> escott: nope
[14:34] <diamonds> that's ootb 11.04
[14:35] <somsip> !fr | Faiob1
[14:35] <tonysan> I am rescuing a hard disk using ddrescue, the message "end_request:I/O error keeps coming out, makes it hard to track the progress, any way to suppress that message?
[14:35] <jrib> tonysan: grep -v would be one way...
[14:35] <JakeR003> guys i started two accounts sessions but i can't switch between them using ctrl+alt+Fx
[14:35] <Faiob1> merci ubottu
[14:35] <escott> diamonds, as jrib indicated the permissions on /home/sequoia block anyone but sequoia himself from accessing the folder
[14:36] <jnsl_> i need to adjust how much memory jvm can use for my app, but where i specify it the existing number is: 1024m ..is m for mb?
[14:36] <compdoc> end_request:I/O error is a bad thing
[14:36] <diamonds> escott: I read what he wrote...
[14:36] <tonysan> jrib: I am pretty a newbie to regular expression...
[14:36] <jnsl_> thanks jrib
[14:36] <jrib> tonysan: so just type the message verbatim
[14:36] <diamonds> I was replying to you asking if I chmod'd $HOME
[14:36] <diamonds> ty everyone!
[14:37] <tonysan> jrib: could you show me some example?
[14:37] <t0ken> hi folks, so how can I increase the number of workspaces/desktops in natty/gnome ?
[14:37] <jrib> tonysan: echo 'foo\nbar' | grep -v 'foo'
[14:37] <usr13> JakeR003: Are you saying you can not go from one console tty to another?
[14:38] <usr13> JakeR003: Like Ctrl-Alt-F6   &  Ctrl-Alt-F7  ?
[14:38] <patrickindia> Hi!I need a little help with ubuntu dialup.
[14:38] <jrib> !dialup | patrickindia
[14:38] <JakeR003> usr13 if i use switch user it ask for a password to unlock screen - ctrl + alt + Fx is not working at all
[14:39] <escott> diamonds, do you have encrypted home? maybe thats why your permissions are different
[14:39] <minimec> Lacabra: the GMA950 is supported for a long time, even though there have been regressions due to changes in the xserver architecture. What exactly do you want to do? A dual screen setup? In that case, it could be, that your settings do reach the maximal resolution capacity of the card. Maybe take a lower resolution on the laptop and try to activate the external screen.
[14:39] <diamonds> escott: I did tick that box, yes
[14:39] <diamonds> escott: ty that's probably it!
[14:40] <usr13> JakeR003: I'm not sure what you are asking.  Ctrl-Alt-F6 should take you to tty6 and Ctrl-Alt-F5 should take you to tty5  If not, there is something basically wrong with your system.
[14:40] <patrickindia> I specifically want help with bluetooth dialup.I went through official bluetooth dialup documentation,but I couldn't get it working!
[14:41] <Guest69916> greetings ;]
[14:41] <usr13> JakeR003: But yes, for sure, if you switch to another user, you will need to provide a password for that user.

[14:41] <patrickindia> with bluetooth dialup
[14:41] <canurabus> hi I was told to run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to fix broken packages on my system. One of the packages it tried to isntall (some perl lib) went into an infinite loop and I had to kill the process. Now if I try to run apt or synaptic, it tells me to run dpkg --configure -a first.  Can someone help?
[14:42] <jrib> canurabus: pastebin what happens exactly with this infinite loop
[14:42] <usr13> canurabus: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade is not for fixing broken packages.   sudo apt-get -f install  may be what you are looking for.
[14:42] <canurabus> I can take a screen shot, it's an infinite loop... too fast to copy/past anything.
[14:43] <usr13> canurabus: If you did   sudo apt-get dist-upgrade   you need to be patient, it will take a LONG time.
[14:43] <jrib> canurabus: well you can kill it and pastebin what's left on your screen (from the start)
[14:43] <Younder> user13: ?
[14:43] <Guest69916> can someone refer me to instructions on how to restore the grub bootloader to my system? I had always used a rescatux live cd to accomplish this but after loading a non-linux OS ontop of my linux instance, my bootloader is gone.
[14:44] <hwilde> !fixgrub | Guest69916
[14:44] <Synthead> anyone have experience with an ubuntu kickstart here?
[14:44] <usr13> !dist-upgrade | canurabus
[14:44] <t0ken> so fyi, when doing big long upgrade things like that.  you can grab all the output by piping things to 'tee' like "sudo apt-get blah | tee logfile.txt"
[14:44] <Younder> Guest69916, If you have installed it on top of you linux that is the least of your problems.
[14:44] <patrickindia> I need help with bluetooth dialup fellows,my phone does not has a DUN profile
[14:44] <usr13> Hummm... seems they've changed the function of dist-upgrade    I am mistaken... I think...
[14:45] <canurabus> okay so there's a ton of information being given out here. I'm *not* trying to upgrade my distro. I can't install anything on it because packages are broken. I was told, *in this channel* that running the dist-upgrade cmd with apt would fix my dependencies, and specifically not upgrade my distro version.
[14:45] <canurabus> here's a screenshot of the loop: http://imgur.com/AFJaD
[14:46] <bazhang> usr13, dist-upgrade does not upgrade versions
[14:46] <Synthead> user --disabled seems to be ignored in my kickstart.
[14:46] <usr13> bazhang: It used to...
[14:46] <bazhang> usr13, nope
[14:46] <mgolisch> sure it does..
[14:46] <dr_willis> distt-upgrade is a more intenvive uggrade
[14:46] <patrickindia> #leave
[14:46] <Pici> usr13: Only if you modified your sources.list as well.
[14:46] <mgolisch> if you changed your sources
[14:46] <Younder> Guest69916, In order to install a widows OS after linux you have to establish a first partion sda1  exclusively for windows. For windows 7 you will need a sdb1 as well if you have a second disk. This must be done with the partion tool BEFORE installing it.
[14:46] <dr_willis> not sure abiut dust-upgrade fixing a briken ststem
[14:47] <klingelbart> what is the terminal command to open a folder?
[14:47] <Younder> Guest69916, Now you have little choice but a reinstall
[14:47] <escott> diamonds, you cannot safely enable any other users to read your home folder with the encrypted home enabled. you will have to create a folder to share outside of $HOME
[14:47] <iuri> Hi there, Is there any problems with ubuntu maverick apt-get repos?
[14:47] <diamonds> escott: ty!
[14:47] <mokti> Is anyone here running Ubuntu on a ThinkPad T420?
[14:47] <nstridesout_> anyone with a webmin installation manual?
[14:47] <iuri> i can`t eve run apt-get upadte
[14:48] <nstridesout_> mokti: Oh yes
[14:48] <usr13> irenicus09: sudo apt-get upgrade
[14:48] <dr_willis> nstridesout_: best to not use webmin on ubuntu
[14:48] <usr13> Pici: Ahhh ok. That's it
[14:48] <Pici> iuri: Do you get an error?
[14:48] <om26er> is there a way i could remove bluetooth icon from the panel?
[14:48] <mokti> nstridesout_: Were there any initial compatability issues with it? How old is it?
[14:48] <nstridesout_> dr_willis: why?
[14:49] <minimec> iuri: Do you get any error messages running 'sudo apt-get update'?
[14:49] <dr_willis> !webmin
[14:49] <fmauro> om26er: click on it, and go to preferences, then uncheck the "Show bluetooth icon" box
[14:49] <iuri> Pici,  nope. it only ggets stuck on 0%
[14:49] <nstridesout_> ubottu: thanks for the info
[14:49] <Monotoko> what should I use instead of webmin?
[14:50] <iuri> minimec,   nope. it only ggets stuck on 0%
[14:50] <Synthead> nobody knows?
[14:50] <Monotoko> is there anything as good as or better than webmin?
[14:50] <canurabus> how do I stop dpkg from installing any thing it might have queued up
[14:50] <nstridesout_> mokti: i actually helped install ubuntu yesterday on her thinkpad, those that came with vista, i dont remember the model
[14:51] <dr_willis> Monotoko:  i just use ssh. peehaps ebox

[14:51] <arnaudf> Hey guys, I have a GeForce Go 6800 Ultra which driver for ubuntu lucid do i need to install?
[14:51] <w3bg33k> does anyone here have experience with symantecs ralus agent?  i can't get it to install on 10.04 due to some dependencies that don't seem to be available anymore
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> !info nvidia-current lucid
[14:52] <arnaudf> Acidpunk, thank you
[14:52] <iuri> minimec, any ideas why that could be
[14:52] <iuri> ?
[14:52] <w3bg33k> ie (libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2)
[14:52] <Younder> arnaudf, I think so.. at least I did
[14:52] <arnaudf> thanks
[14:52] <arnaudf> :)
[14:52] <arnaudf> installing now
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> arnaudf: should use a newer one, let me get  a link. Any particular reason to use lucid?
[14:52] <minimec> iuri: Would you be able to install software? Let's take imwheel for example. It's a one package software whitout dependencies. Would 'sudo apt-get install imwheel' give you any hint?
[14:52] <arnaudf> just not updated
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> arnaudf: i see
[14:53] <arnaudf> it scares me, i have too much stuff and im happy where i am at
[14:53] <arnaudf> :)
[14:53] <_pr0t0type_> Hey guys, is there any where I can learn how to read the iptable -L output?  I haven't had success on google
[14:53] <jrib> !iptables | _pr0t0type_
[14:54] <iuri> minimec, yes, i can download ubuntu .deb packages and install them with dpkg -i
[14:54] <Younder> arnaudf, make sure you know you know how to restore from backup before switching ;)
[14:54] <arnaudf> dont say that
[14:54] <arnaudf> hehe
[14:54] <Ramses> gomenasai, gomenasai...

[14:54] <fmauro> _pr0t0type_: you mean the syntax? or does it not display?
[14:54] <Ramses> arigato
[14:54] <arnaudf> ok installed without errors, going to reboot, wish me luck!! :)
[14:55] <minimec> iuri: But you have to download them manually? You cannot use 'sudo apt-get install imwheel' for example?
[14:55] <iuri> minimec, that is the line where it gets stuck? 0% [Connecting to br.archive.ubuntu.com (<IP_ADDRESS>)] [Connecting to extras.u
[14:55] <iuri> minimec, no
[14:55] <arnaudf> actually
[14:55] <arnaudf> uh oh
[14:55] <arnaudf> GeForce Go 6800 Ultra
[14:55] <iuri> minimec, i cant
[14:55] <arnaudf> Errors were encountered while processing:
[14:55] <_pr0t0type_> fmauro: no, I mean like the columns, and what all the fields mean.  Like for instance 'port opt source'

[14:55] <FloodBot1> arnaudf: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:55] <_pr0t0type_> I mean
[14:55] <arnaudf> how do i find out what the errors where?
[14:55] <_pr0t0type_> 'prot opt source'
[14:55] <iuri> minimec, btw, no proxy is set up
[14:56] <ActionParsnip> arnaudf: install the package in terminal, you will get decent details. You can add this PPA to get a later driver which may help:  https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates?field.series_filter=lucid
[14:56] <fmauro> _pr0t0type_: how about http://aplawrence.com/Linux/iptables.html
[14:56] <nstridesout_> anyone with proxies i can use
[14:56] <klingelbart> I'm using unity. I wanna create a symbol in my panel wich opens a special folder in nautilus. how do i do that?
[14:56] <klingelbart> I'm using unity. I wanna create a symbol in my panel wich opens a special folder in nautilus. how do i do that?
[14:56] <Younder> arnaudf, /var/log/messages
[14:56] <klingelbart> sry, wante to type it 1x
[14:56] <_pr0t0type_> fmauro: thanks, it looks like a good iptables source
[14:56] <_pr0t0type_> I will look into it
[14:57] <arnaudf> Younder, it said nothing in messages and the terminal info just said what i pasted..
[14:57] <arnaudf> :(
[14:57] <minimec> iuri: CAn you open the synaptic package software once to see if it gives you any messages?
[14:57] <Younder> arnaudf, /var/log/sysinfo
[14:57] <arnaudf> ill pastebin full error Younder
[14:57] <trism> klingelbart: right click the desktop, create launcher, and enter: nautilus /path/to/directory; as the command, then drag and drop the desktop file to your launcher
[14:58] <klingelbart> kk thx
[14:58] <klingelbart> is it possible to edit such a launcher file?
[14:58] <klingelbart> after it is created?
[14:58] <nstridesout_> a friend's ubuntu software center cannot open. what can i do to help them?
[14:58] <trism> klingelbart: yes, you can also copy it to another folder in nautilus before dragging it to the launcher if you don't want it on your desktop too
[14:59] <arnaudf> http://codepad.org/ekFfYyTZ <-- Younder any ideas?
[14:59] <fmauro> nstridesout_: no error message? how about running from terminal?
[14:59] <klingelbart> trism: thx
[14:59] <Younder> nstridesout_, sounds lie a python problem. Did he install a new version in /usr/local/bin ?
[14:59] <nstridesout_> fmauro:it opens but it freezes either way!
[15:00] <fmauro> and there's no message whatsoever indicating the freeze in the terminal output?
[15:00] <klingelbart> are ther invisible files in nautilus (as in windows directorys?)
[15:00] <trism> klingelbart: type ctrl+h to see the hidden files/folders (they start with a . )
[15:00] <usr13> Once you get a system upgraded to 10.04, and you want it to stick with LTS,  How is that done?
[15:01] <nstridesout_> younder: i think you might be right because the system update was not complete. i had just installed 11.04 on her thinkpad. i used the synaptic center to install other applications thoough!
[15:01] <Younder> arnaudf, lines 23 and 24 in that script give the location
[15:01] <klingelbart> trism: thx, got it. do all hidden folders start with an "." ?
[15:01] <minimec> iuri: Next step would also be to try 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' in a console
[15:02] <tuntun> good eve
[15:02] <tuntun> any natty users here?
[15:02] <jrib> tuntun: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[15:03] <trism> klingelbart: all folders starting with a . will be hidden, whether to can hide one another way, I don't know
[15:03] <klingelbart> trism: thx
[15:03] <theadmin> trism: No other way
[15:03] <tuntun> I have a question how can I know that my intel graphic card drivers is installed?
[15:03] <jrib> trism, klingelbart: nautilus will also hide files listed in a .hidden file
[15:03] <mokti> Are there usually compatability problems with NVIDIA cards?
[15:03] <Younder> nstridesout_,  /usr/local/bin is searched befor /usr/bin and if you install a ner version that version takes control.  System software SHOLD use absolute filepaths, but is DOESN'T.
[15:04] <klingelbart> jrib: thx
[15:04] <tuntun> I have a question how can I know that my intel graphic card drivers is installed? im using ubuntu 11.04
[15:04] <theadmin> !repeat | tuntun
[15:04] <nstridesout_> Younder: thanks
[15:05] <bazhang> tuntun, are you using unity? or classic
[15:05] <tuntun> unity sir
[15:06] <bazhang> tuntun, then the drivers should be there and working
[15:06] <bazhang> tuntun, not unity-2d then
[15:07] <edgy> Hi, I am new to snort. I just installed it with acidbase in ubuntu. I did nmap <IP_ADDRESS> but localhost/acidbase shows Portscan Traffic (0%)
[15:08] <tuntun> bazhang: not very familliar with unity  and gno but all I know is it's unity.
[15:08] <mokti> Does anyone in here know a lot about hardware compatiability? Can I prv msg you with some specs?

[15:09] <mokti> I'll take a look at the pages you linked
[15:10] <EgyParadox> edgy:Did you check the interface?
[15:11] <tuntun> bazhang: sir I found out my natty 11.04 is using classic desktop 2ith 2 panels
[15:11] <JakeR003> guys i created a 2nd account and the programs in the first account is not there. i did this sudo cp -R --preserve * /home/newuser
[15:11] <JakeR003> it only copid few trash into my account
[15:11] <JakeR003> i need the programs
[15:11] <JakeR003> not useless shortcuts and folders for music and videos
[15:11] <theadmin> JakeR003: You forgot the .files
[15:12] <JakeR003> tell me how
[15:12] <bazhang> tuntun, whats the graphics chipset please
[15:12] <theadmin> JakeR003: sudo cp -R ~/.* /home/newuser/
[15:12] <edgy> EgyParadox: it seems you are right, ps -ef |grep snort shows snort -i eth0 though my interface is wlan0, where is the file to set this?
[15:12] <JakeR003> ok thanks
[15:12] <pigiman> Hey, I tried to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf by adding Option "SHMConfig" 'on' ('true'\'1'), and now I`m trying to open "gsynaptics" and I still see an error about setting "SHMConfig" to 'true' , any ideas?
[15:12] <Cerrdor> whats the official python channel?

[15:13] <Cerrdor> anyone know thew official python channel?
[15:15] <usr13> Once you get a system upgraded to 10.04, and you want it to stick with LTS,  How is that done?    In other words, if you have an 8.04 system that has the Update Manager set to LTS and you do sudo do-release-upgrade  Will it do a distribution upgrade to 8.10 or 10.04?
[15:16] <bazhang> usr13, keep it set to recognize only LTS option
[15:16] <bazhang> usr13, which will be 12.04
[15:16] <mokti> ubottu: I don't see the card listed anywhere, does that mean it isn't compatible?
[15:17] <alakoo> hella
[15:18] <mokti> bazhang: I looked on the certified hardware list, and couldn't find the graphics card I'm looking at, does that mean that it wont work, or it isnt confirmed to work?
[15:18] <bazhang> mokti, whats the card please
[15:18] <theadmin> mokti: Isn't confirmed. NVidia hardware typically works well

[15:20] <djk> Is there any way to reduce the unity launcher icon below 32?
[15:21] <takpar> hi all
[15:22] <theadmin> mokti: nvidia.com has Linux drivers for your card.
[15:22] <theadmin> mokti: It's supported, therefore.
[15:23] <bazhang> mokti, thinkpad w520?
[15:23] <mokti> bazhang: yes
[15:23] <mokti> theadmin: thanks!
[15:23] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1757821 mokti check this please
[15:24] <clubberx> Just installed the Unity2D updates via update manager and now have 2 instances of the launcher starting?!?
[15:24] <bazhang> clubberx, two unity-2d panels?
[15:24] <clubberx> yes
[15:24] <bazhang> clubberx, screenshot?
[15:24] <Pici> mokti: I haven't fully read what you're asking, but I find http://www.thinkwiki.org/ a great resource for Linux on ThinkPads. (I have a T60 myself)
[15:24] <Teknomancer> is there a way to launch gnome-terminal with "always on top" set via a script?
[15:24] <clubberx> one as before one with some obvious style updates
[15:25] <Teknomancer> this is for an automated session so no mouse-clicks etc.
[15:25] <bazhang> Pici, its the optimus issue
[15:25] <Pici> bazhang: ahhh
[15:25] <Teknomancer> i've been checking 'wmctrl' hmm
[15:26] <feyd> I started my computer and GDM cannot login to the standard Xsession, XFCE session, or user defined session
[15:26] <feyd> it flickers and bumps back to the gdm login
[15:27] <clubberx> A bit hard to screen cap - as you can't see both at once, one slides over the other
[15:27] <bazhang> feyd, full /home ?

[15:27] <UncleLaz> test

[15:27] <bazhang> argh
[15:27] <bazhang> UncleLaz, success
[15:28] <tuntun> bazhang sorry for the late reply the chipset for my intel graphic card is intel GMA 4500M
[15:28] <feyd> bazhang: I'm sorry?
[15:28] <theadmin> feyd: Does the partition on which your home folder is have free space?
[15:28] <javier__> hi! I have a problem with grub2. I have 2 SO, kubuntu 11.04 and windows 7. In grub2, keyboard doesn't work, so I can't go to windows7. Only after 10 seconds countdown kubuntu is selected. I'm in a laptop
[15:28] <mokti> bazhang: It seems like some people at that link have it working, and some dont
[15:28] <javier__> (so, laptop's keyboard
[15:29] <feyd> theadmin: it has about 20 gigs of free space, so yes
[15:29] <theadmin> bazhang: ^
[15:29]  * theadmin is a bazhang-to-English translator I guess xD
[15:29] <bazhang> feyd, out of how much total
[15:29] <feyd> theadmin: would my errors be logged in .xsession-errors?
[15:29] <theadmin> feyd: Likely.
[15:30] <mokti> bazhang: I might be willing to pick it up and do some workarounds, do you think that they will get the drivers working correctly any time soon?
[15:30] <theadmin> javier__: Dig around in your BIOS... Sounds like an issue there
[15:30] <feyd> bazhang: im not currently on the comp in question, but I believe it's probably something like 29/32 gigs free,  i forgot exact numbers but there is ample space
[15:30] <bazhang> mokti, that has solved on it, perhaps check launchpad.net for other possible workarounds
[15:31] <mokti> bazhang: They did solve it? It looked like some people still couldnt get it working (I dont have the machine yet I'm considering purchasing it)
[15:31] <mokti> bazhang: I guess I should have looked at the thread title lol
[15:31] <bazhang> mokti, the thread is marked <solved>, so yeah
[15:32] <javier__> theadmin: thanks, I will try that. Only thing is that it's my brother's laptop, and we are in different cities. We will try :)
[15:32] <theadmin> javier__: I understand so well, that's just like me trying to help my girlfriend :D

[15:33] <Frank_> Hello all! I have an issue with Ubuntu - it suddenly freezes after I start FireFox (or anything related to Internet) Now it dod not crash and I looked up syslog - thats what it says http://paste.ubuntu.com/664341/ Anyone an advice what to do? (Ubuntu 11.04)
[15:34] <fede> Hi, I've just installed Ubuntu 11.04, and my firefox crashes for about everything (even with flash uninstalled). libflashplayer.so an libfontconfig.so appear on the reports
[15:35] <fede> @Frank I'm having the same problems with Firefox (even with Chromium)
[15:35] <fede> @Frank_ I'm having the same problems with Firefox (even with Chromium)
[15:35] <Frank_> fede: I dont think your system freezes :P Or does it?
[15:35] <tuntun> fede: why not use google chrome?
[15:35] <Kyle__> fede: Frank_: did you run all the updates?  bounce the box when it asked to?
[15:36] <fede> @Frank_ no, my system won't freeze, only my browser. I need firebug :P
[15:36] <usr13> I think I found the answer:  (Someone correct me if I am wrong.)  If the line in /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades says "Prompt=lts" do-release-upgrade will only look for LTS. If the line says "Prompt=lts"  it will just go to next release.  ...Right?
[15:36] <fede> @Kyle__ yes, I've run every updates available.
[15:37] <Kyle__> usr13: long term stable, but not the interem releases, like the .08s.
[15:37] <theadmin> fede: This is no twitter, you don't have to put @ before usernames.
[15:37] <tuntun> can't P2P connection with my natty.. how come? when I was till using 10.10 it was still okay?
[15:38] <mokti> Okay, I'm finding another compatibility problem
[15:38] <mokti> the wireless card
[15:38] <Kyle__> fede: Most IRC clients will auto-highlight lines that start with your nick.
[15:39] <mokti> Has anyone used a Thinkpad b/g/n card? I cant find anything in the online ubuntu documentation
[15:39] <Pici> mokti: Which adpater?
[15:39] <fede> Kyle__; thanks for the tip, any ideas on how to fix my Firefox? I don't even need the latest version
[15:39] <Kyle__> mokti: use lspci or dmidecode to dig out the exact card.
[15:40] <mokti> on the ThinkPad ordering site it says its a ThinkPad b/g/n, nothing else. I don't have the laptop, Im thinking about getting it
[15:40] <Pici> mokti: Did you look at that website I gave you?
[15:40] <usr13> And the do-release-upgrade command came to us in 2009 ?   Is that correct?
[15:40] <Kyle__> fede: Sadly no.  I've had problems due to firefox before, but not the one you're experiencing. You say it's dying every time you launch firefox, or just when you open a page with flash?
[15:40] <mokti> Pici: no, I was looking at the online wifi documentation, Ill take a look at that page, thanks
[15:41] <fede> Kyle__: it launches ok, but crash on random pages, not only the ones with flash. It even crashed at google!
[15:41] <Kyle__> fede: Umm.  Is the box otherwise stable?
[15:42] <fede> Kyle__: I think so. I've struggled installing both Nvidia and PCI Wifi drivers. Could that be the problem? A buggy driver?
[15:42] <Kyle__> fede: I suppose it could be, but wouldn't jump to that quite yet...
[15:43] <Kyle__> fede: Did you make any alterations, like say, turning off swap?
[15:43] <TemporalBeing1> quick question: is #ubuntu-app-devel still alive? I couldn't find it in the room list (and it'd probably be more appropriate for my question)
[15:43] <usr13> My question really is:  does the "Prompt-lts"  line in /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades  limit the function of update-manager, or does it also limit the function of  do-relese-upgrade?
[15:43] <fede> Kyle__: mmm, no. But I've installed my custom partitioning set ( 3 partitions: / , /home, swap )
[15:44] <javier__> theadmin: what do you think about "boot-repair"?
[15:44] <Kyle__> fede: K.  Make sure swap is indeed being used.
[15:44] <usr13> One or both?
[15:44] <tuntun> where can I learn how to know more about ubuntu? any suggested sites?
[15:44] <fede> Kyle_
[15:44] <fede> Kyle__ : how can I check my swap?
[15:44] <mokti> Pici: the website says it is supported with kernel 2.6.34 and newer
[15:44] <bazhang> !manual | tuntun
[15:44] <bazhang> !wiki | tuntun here too
[15:45] <mokti> Pici: Actually, I looked at another card that I could order with it and it said it is supported with that kernel
[15:45] <theadmin> I'm going to idle for now. javier__ and anyone else expecting my help, ask someone else.
[15:45] <Kyle__> fede: look in /proc/swaps or /proc/meminfo.  Or even just run top
[15:45] <mokti> thanks for the help, I'll keep that website
[15:45] <yichi> hello
[15:45] <Pici> mokti: Then you don't need to do anything if you're planning on running anything as new as or newer than maverick.
[15:46] <tuntun> bazhang,ubottu: thank you much appreciated
[15:47] <love4linux> does anyone know a simple pdf reader that allows highlighting of text? I use foxit reader on windows which is great but the linux version of foxit is does not support highlight
[15:47] <mongy> anyone know how to get evolution to automatically add a couple of line feeds to a message.. as it is, if I forward inline or have a signature, it puts my cursor right on the same line as the sig or forwarded text.
[15:47] <fede> Kyle__ : my swap (8gb) is not being used, but I guess is because I've installed 4gb ram
[15:48] <usr13> love4linux: From what I have seen xpdf will on some pdfs but not all of them.  Not sure about Abobe Reader.... I should check
[15:48] <ccvvcc> my ubuntu is damaged
[15:48] <ccvvcc> http://pastebin.com/RnC4aDmi
[15:48] <Kyle__> fede: K.  But it's there, which is important.
[15:48] <usr13> love4linux: I always thought it depended on the pdf document, and how it was created.
[15:48] <love4linux> usr13 adobe reader pro will do the job but is not free
[15:48] <ccvvcc> sudo apt-get remove samba doesn't work either
[15:49] <usr13> love4linux: o
[15:49] <usr13> love4linux: But what do  you mean, "highlighting text"?
[15:50] <Kyle__> fede: Did you try blowing away (or just moving to a new name) your ~/.mozilla directory ?
[15:50] <loculinux> Hola algun tio para follar con tio en almería?
[15:50] <usr13> ccvvcc: Try:  apt-get -f install
[15:50] <fede> Kyle_
[15:50] <love4linux> usr13 Emm.. simply select a part of text you want and then highlight it as you would with a highlighter on paper
[15:50] <escott> !br | loculinux
[15:50] <fede> Kyle__: I'll do that, thanks
[15:51] <nexes> So, I'm trying to manually upgrade to Catalyst 11.7 in 11.04. fglrx shows as a module in lsmod, but the desktop won't start and Xorg.0.log shows: Failed to load module "fglrx" (module does not exist, 0) ...Anyone know off hand what might cause X not to recognize the fglrx module?
[15:51] <love4linux> usr13 thanks for the suggestion anyways
[15:52] <usr13> lollo64it: xpdf hightlights text.
[15:52] <lucenut> I have an HP Mini netbook that will only take 1G RAM and I'd like to install ubuntu and have it dual boot. It currently has Windows 7.
[15:52] <lucenut> I have downloaded the 9.04 netbook remix and the 11.04 iso.
[15:53] <usr13> lollo64it: Looks like it does it on most any document.
[15:53] <lucenut> Isn't an iso for burning a CD?
[15:53] <lucenut> Can't do much with it on the netbook. Don't most netbooks not have CDRs?
[15:54] <bazhang> lucenut, use a usb stick with unetbootin
[15:54] <Jordan_U> lucenut: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download has instructions for putting it on a USB drive.
[15:54] <Pici> lucenut: Be aware that 9.04 is no longer supported and you will not be able to install or update any software from the repositories.
[15:54] <lucenut> Ah.
[15:55] <lucenut> Is 11.04 a better option then?
[15:55] <Jordan_U> lucenut: Definitely.
[15:55] <Pici> lucenut: 11.04 with lxde or xfce (lubuntu or xubuntu) would likely be a better idea.
[15:55] <lucenut> The netbook remix said it adjusted some menus and stuff for small screens.
[15:55] <lucenut> Are those plugins?
[15:55] <bazhang> lucenut, une is no more 11.04 does it by default now
[15:55] <Pici> lucenut: there is no nbr anymore, as Unity is now the default desktop environment on Ubuntu.
[15:56] <lucenut> Ah, OK.

[15:58] <usr13> canurabus: Did you try   apt-get -f install  ?

[16:10] <Daemonproxy> What is the best video editor program for ubuntu?
[16:11] <Pici> glebihan: er, that is likely to break things.
[16:11] <glebihan> Pici, things are pretty much broken...
[16:11] <ParkerR> glebihan, umm yes very many packages depend on libc6
[16:11] <canurabus> glebihan: the purge call isn't successful, get more dependency errors
[16:12] <hari_> super tux is not working in ubuntu
[16:12] <Zungo> Daemonproxy: idk, you should try and try, simple as that.or you can google it...
[16:12] <ParkerR> hari_, works for me
[16:12] <ParkerR> And he quits :/
[16:13] <Zungo> does gnome 3 works on natty? i mean, what happens if i install gnome3 in top of gnome 2?
[16:13] <canurabus> can I downgrade libc6?
[16:13] <Zungo> canurabus: you need to add older repos
[16:14] <Pici> !gnome3 | Zungo
[16:14] <w30> hari_wouldn't work for me without the Nvidia proprietory drivers
[16:14] <mmncs> how do i set up the correct access rights for a web project so www-data and I can access and create files?
[16:14] <Pici> mmncs: Putting yourself into the www-data group is one way.
[16:15] <Daemonproxy> I was looking for a video editor program for linux and i found Kino,Cinelerra and jashaka
[16:15] <zen_> can someone help me with grub? i get error: invalid arch independent ELF magic.
[16:15] <Pici> Daemonproxy: There is also pitivi.
[16:15] <Zungo> Pici: ufff, not that, i am NOT trying to use PPA, instead, i saw gnome3-session packages in natty repos....
[16:15] <javier__> theadmin: you found something?
[16:15] <ParkerR> Isnt gnome3 what natty uses under Unity?
[16:15] <w30> hari_try launching it in a terminal and watch the error message if there is one
[16:15] <Pici> Zungo: That doesn't provide a full gnome3 environment. I'm not sure what exactly it does give you.
[16:16] <JakeR003> how to add custom resolution to ubuntu monitor ?
[16:16] <Zungo> ParkerR: no, unity it´s just an interface based in gnome
[16:17] <ParkerR> Hmm
[16:17] <Pici> ParkerR: Unity is a shell for GNOME but it is not gnome-shell.
[16:17] <Younder> Zungo, A interface created by ubuntu that is different from gnomes
[16:17]  * ParkerR wonders why he had the argument with someone over gnome3 the other day that said gnome3 ruined Ubuntu
[16:17] <shinsuke> thunsucker, are you sure you can use cairo dock for blinking notification icons in the gnome panel like pidgin?
[16:17] <ParkerR> Pici, I know that
[16:18] <Younder> But uses gnome underneath
[16:18] <shinsuke> hi. how can i add blinking notification icons to the gnome panel like pidgin does when received a msg? thanks
[16:18] <thunsucker> shinsuke: cairo is a dock, it operates differently than the gnome panel. you can customize it to do many things, like spin icons and etc.
[16:18] <glebihan> shinkamui, what do you want to do exactly ?
[16:19] <Zungo> shinsuke: maybe you want pigdin integrate into the system notifications....
[16:19] <thunsucker> shinsuke: pidgin is programmed to do that, other applications may not have that ability. with a dock, you can customize the way the icons work
[16:19] <canurabus> does anyone have any suggestions at all? I only have the default repos enabled -- and now I have broken packages after a botched update. What am I supposed to do?
[16:19] <Zungo> is there gnome3 in the reops?
[16:19] <glebihan> shinsuke, what do you want to do exactly ?
[16:20] <delinquentme> heyy all .. So if im looking to make some Khan academy style tutorials ( screen-cap video with something like paint and voice overs )  what would be my best option?
[16:20] <thunsucker> shinsuke: what application are you wantitng to blink like pidgin?
[16:20] <Pici> delinquentme: There are a few options...
[16:20] <glebihan> shinsuke, are you developing an application or do you want some chosen icons to blink ?

[16:20] <g105b> Could someone help me configure/make/install the beta version of Qt? I just downloaded 4.8.0 beta (.tar.gz) and extracted the files, and now I'm lost :D not very confident in the terminal...
[16:21] <shinsuke> glebihan, i want cron to start scripts and to give me a visual notification so i do not forget about it
[16:21] <Zungo> canurabus: re update , reinstall or else, or use apt-get
[16:21] <shinsuke> glebihan, developing
[16:21] <canurabus> Zungo: I can't call apt-get -- everything I try complains about broken packages
[16:21] <Zungo> try it with -f
[16:22] <Zungo> or just apt-get to get help
[16:22] <glebihan> shinsuke, cron won't be able to show icons in the notification area as it does not run in the desktop environment
[16:22] <bluecrysmile> apt-get
[16:22] <mokti> Hello, I'm back!
[16:22] <thunsucker> canurabus: what happened, you ran what and it caused whhat to happen?
[16:22] <shinsuke> glebihan, but maybe i can run a programm with cron that does it
[16:22] <canurabus> Zungo: I did. I tried issuing the original update command again as well.
[16:23] <glebihan> shinsuke, you still wouldn't have a connection with the display
[16:23] <thunsucker> shinsuke: setup a cron job and then setup a calendar or something that reminds you
[16:23] <w30> Zungo, Synaptic has a repair broken package option; Did you try that?
[16:23] <canurabus> thunsucker: when installing one of the packages it got caught in an infinite loop so I had to kill it. The output of the loop is here: http://pastebin.com/M4sYePss.
[16:24] <Zungo> canurabus: read w30 msg
[16:24] <Zungo> w30: it was for canurabus...
[16:24] <shinsuke> thunsucker, ok i try it
[16:24] <thunsucker> canurabus: during a version upgrade?
[16:24] <javier__> yes, I use laptop
[16:24] <mokti> If a video card is listed in the certified hardware catalog, it is completely supported, correct?
[16:25] <w30> Zungo, opps, my bad..
[16:25] <Zungo> :P
[16:25] <canurabus> w30: yes I tried Synaptic. It can ID the broken packages but won't let me repair them. I get some error...
[16:25] <glebihan> shinsuke, one (not simple) solution would be to use DBus to connect the script with some application running under the desktop environment to show the notification icons... but it would be a lot of work for such a purpose
[16:25] <thunsucker> mokti: if it's in the list then it's been tested and shown to work
[16:25] <Zungo> pastebin the error log canurabus
[16:26] <mokti> thunsucker: okay, thanks. It was listed under another model of computer though, should it still work okay?
[16:26] <shinsuke> glebihan, ok. i was getting into dbus anyway so it is a good practice. thanks
[16:26] <dataworm> anyway to install Ubuntu on new Macbook Air that run Lion without using a cdrom?
[16:26] <thunsucker> mokti: probably, you can also boot a live cd and see how that operates first, if it doesn't work, simply reboot and take the cd out
[16:27] <canurabus> Zungo: http://pastebin.com/zGDEhdhS
[16:27] <glebihan> shinsuke, then if you choose to go that way, the class used to display the status icons is the "StatusIcon" of gtk libraries
[16:28] <Zungo> held packages and synaptic cannot fix it :(
[16:28] <NixNinja> I have 3 web sites running on apache they were all working before I installed svn server now two of my sites work but one of them is only giving my a directory listing and not loading the page anyone know what configuration setting may be causing this?
[16:28] <mokti> thunsucker: I don't have the machine yet, I'm thinking about buying it. The model that is listed is the a ThinkPad T420s, and I'm going to pick up a T420
[16:28] <thunsucker> canurabus: did the problem occur during an upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10?
[16:28] <fosterdv> NixNinja have you attempted to tail your error logs?
[16:28] <NixNinja> not yet but I will
[16:29] <shinsuke> glebihan, thanks again. linux will rule the world
[16:29] <w30> dataworm, I put ubuntu on a netbook with flash drive because of no cd drive; I would think it would work on a Mac also if you get the mac-ubuntu iso
[16:29] <glebihan> shinsuke, you're welcome :)
[16:29] <canurabus> thunsucker: no, the distribution wasn't being upgraded just updates
[16:29] <auronandace> mokti: thinkpads are great but i've heard reports that nvidia optimus graphics are difficult to get working under linux
[16:30] <thunsucker> canurabus: did you try just: sudo apt-get install -f
[16:30] <mokti> I actually found a thread that solved some issues. I'll have to check a little further to make sure
[16:31] <canurabus> thunsucker: many times... get the same error synaptic gives me
[16:31] <thunsucker> canurabus: read the bottom post: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/debian-linux/59318-package-problem-broken-dependency-more.html
[16:31] <mokti> auronandace: I actually found a thread that solved some issues. I'll have to check a little further to make sure
[16:31] <javier__> someone knows if I can safely change grub2 to another in ubuntu 11.04? grub2 doesn't work well (can't use my keyboard there)
[16:32] <auronandace> mokti: i've heard of bumblebee but it does sound more of a hack than a fix
[16:32] <auronandace> mokti: given time though, i'm sure linux will support switchable graphics better in the future
[16:33] <designbybeck> Has anyone hooked up a laptop with HDMI to their HDMI TV??
[16:33] <designbybeck> I tried both Ubuntu and Windows and I have a lag on the TV
[16:34] <theadmin> javier__: apt-get install grub-legacy
[16:34] <mokti> auronandace: This thread is for a separate graphics card that also uses optimus, do you think this would work:
[16:35] <mokti> auronandace: sorry I forgot the link: ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1757821
[16:35] <Nekken> Hello
[16:35] <fosterdv> Hello Nekken
[16:35] <faint545> designbybeck, how big is your tv
[16:36] <Nekken> Can I ask question about Ubuntu technical issue here (sound card issue) ?
[16:36] <javier__> theadmin: with that comand, says that "couldn't open the file" and "denied permission"
[16:36] <designbybeck> 55in tv faint545
[16:36] <faint545> designbybeck, if it's really big, then there will be latency.. oh wow. yeah latency is expected of that size haha
[16:36] <fosterdv> Nekken, I would think so.
[16:37] <mokti> auronandace: I mean, I could probably just disable optimus...
[16:37] <Nekken> I'm using Natty on Acer TimelineX 3830T
[16:37] <theadmin> javier__: Um.
[16:37] <faint545> designbybeck, nothing you can do really
[16:37] <designbybeck> doh!! I didn't know that would happen? anyway to fix it?
[16:37] <theadmin> javier__: sudo apt-get install grub-legacy
[16:37] <designbybeck> :(( :(( :((
[16:37] <thrillERboy> Hi, How Can I color the prompt of my CLI? ie How to make tboy@ubuntu:~$ look in different color that rest of the output?
[16:37] <Nekken> And I don't any sound except...... when I plug or unplug the computer to power supply
[16:37] <designbybeck> I told my boss we should have gone with a short throw projector!!
[16:37] <javier__> theadmin:  sorry, that was obvious. Thanks
[16:37] <designbybeck> Thanks for the feedback faint545!
[16:37] <mokti> auronandace: idk, I'll probably be able to figure it out, thanks
[16:38] <Nekken> I mean ... not when it is plugged, or unplugged, but when I'm plugging:unplugging it
[16:38] <Nekken> :-(
[16:38] <auronandace> mokti: like i said, more of a hack, essentially what that thread recomends is disabling optimus and blacklisting nouveau and framebuffers and using the nvidia card exclusively
[16:38] <perlsyntax> Has anyone use q4wine before?
[16:38] <theadmin> perlsyntax: I think PlayOnLinux works better.
[16:38] <canurabus> thunsucker: because the packages involved are perl and libc, following those instructions, specifically the part where it says 'mark the unmet dependencies in synaptic', basically makes synaptic reinstall my entire system.
[16:38] <theadmin> javier__: No problem.
[16:38] <perlsyntax> The prob is i have a hard time find out how to unmount it.
[16:39] <blink> i am trying to install limewire but it doesn't work!
[16:39] <mks> alguien que halla probado la beta de ubuntu 11.10 y halla podido hacer funcionar wepcrack
[16:39] <distroia> hi everybody. 1920x1080 on 23" monitor, ubuntu 10.10, gnome, default theme. My problem is, it's hard to resize the windows - the area at the window corner where the mouse changes shapes allowing me to resize the window  is too small. anyone had this same issue and solved it?
[16:39] <theadmin> !es | mks
[16:39] <perlsyntax> why you say that for i never use it before.
[16:39] <fosterdv> Nekken, the sound you have when you plug in and out, is that coming from the system speaker? or your actual speakers?
[16:39] <Ramses> ...I I I I I wanna go go go go go go go...
[16:39] <lng> 	Plymouth SPINFINITY freezes. now unable to change the plymouth
[16:39] <oCean> Ramses: stop that
[16:40] <mks> gracias
[16:40] <perlsyntax> theadmin,Is it free
[16:40] <theadmin> perlsyntax: Yah
[16:40] <javier__> theadmin: but no luck. It says that gurb-legacy is not available, but maybe "grub-ieee1275       grub-coreboot       grub-pc         grub-efi-ia32        grub-efi-amd64"
[16:40] <fosterdv> Nekken: Have you tried to look up your laptop and find what soundcard or chipset is being used for your sound, and looked up and attempted to verify you have that driver installed?
[16:40] <perlsyntax> theadmin, it easy to unmount it to?
[16:40] <Nekken> it is a laptop, and the sound is from internal speaker (not the buzzer)
[16:40] <theadmin> Be back at some point in the future.
[16:40] <Pici> Ramses: If you're looking to chat, then use #ubuntu-offtopic please.
[16:41] <fosterdv> Lol, I have a Dell XPS with both....
[16:41] <thrillERboy> Hi, What CLI Email Client u Use?
[16:41] <Nekken> I'm quite a newbie on Linux :-( How can I check the driver ?
[16:41] <fosterdv> Look your laptop up, on the manufactures page, and see what they say is being used for sound.
[16:41] <phillyj> anyone know what ibam battery monitor means by "adapted battery time left"?
[16:41] <trism> thrillERboy: in the default ~/.bashrc there is a line containing: force_color_prompt=yes that you should uncomment, and then a couple lines down, there is an if color_prompt, which then sets PS1, that's where the colors come from
[16:42] <propman> javier__:  "It says that gurb-legacy is not available"    typo?
[16:42] <perlsyntax> i try that out:)
[16:42] <trism> thrillERboy: color escape info here: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prompt-HOWTO/x329.html
[16:42] <thrillERboy> thanks a ton trism
[16:42] <fosterdv> Nekken: Don't worry about the OS, just find what is being used, as far as hardware.
[16:43] <javier__> propman: yes, says that is not available but some other refer to ir.
[16:43] <javier__> propman: and then, at the end, say that those packets replace it
[16:43] <javier__> it's in kubuntu
[16:43] <propman> javier__:   it says "gurb"  not grub
[16:43] <distroia> Pici, i see you know about channels here -- do you know any other channel where I may ask my question? (do you want me to paste it again?)
[16:44] <Pici> javier__: 'grub' is the legacy grub version, grub-pc is grub2
[16:44] <Pici> distroia: I'd just be patient here and ask a again in a few minutes.  I suppose you could ask in ##linux as well.
[16:45] <distroia> thanks
[16:45] <Nekken> Hum....  It is an Intel, but don't know the model
[16:46] <javier__> Pici: so should be "sudo apt-get install grub" (that would install grub legacy=¿?)
[16:46] <Pici> javier__: yes.
[16:48] <fosterdv> Nekken: What is your laptop again?
[16:49] <Nekken> Acer TimeLineX 3830T
[16:49] <Nekken> Sooner, I was able to launch alsamixer, but right now I can't anymore :-(((
[16:50] <Lostvocies> hi guys,if i click on file systemi get this  , whatdoes it mean.. ubuntu specify the application you to use for default file manager xfce
[16:50] <Lostvocies> what do i choose?
[16:53] <joe_> Does anyone know what happened to the Ubuntu Certified Professional exam?
[16:53] <javier__> Pici: it didnt work. It looked like it was installed "grub", but when rebooting, grub2 started
[16:53] <joe_> Can you still get it? Or is it with Canonical itself?  There is NO info on their site
[16:55] <pinoyoragon> Weird thing, I can't boot properly to my 11.04 without pressing esc during boot. If i don't press ESC, it enters graphics mode then stalls showing only the mouse pointer but without the login box
[16:55] <thunsucker> canurabus: try the other commands, skip the last
[16:55] <hhaab19> ciao
[16:56] <canurabus> thunsucker: those commands give me the same 'Unmet Dependencies' error
[16:58] <dell> i edit the nameservers in the /etc/resolv.conf but when i reconnect they revert back to what they were originally...how to stop this...probably the isp dhcp server is providing its own dns servers?
[16:58] <llutz> dell: change dhclient.conf or your network-manager connection
[16:59] <thunsucker> canurabus: what package was it that destroyed apt-get?
[16:59] <canurabus> thunsucker: libc6-dev
[16:59] <thunsucker> canurabus: so you did sudo apt-get install libc6-dev ?
[16:59] <dell> whereis dhclient.conf
[17:00] <dr_willis> dell,  the network manager icon has options to set your own dns.. yes. the isp normally supplies DNS servers as part of the DHCP stuff
[17:00] <fosterdv> Nekken: I think this is what you might actually be using for sound, Mobile Intel® HM65 Express Chipset
[17:00] <Pici> dell: /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
[17:00] <thunsucker> dell: /etc/dhclient.conf
[17:00] <llutz> dell: likely /etc/dhcp3/
[17:00] <thunsucker> canurabus: try, sudo apt-get -f install libc6-dev
[17:00] <dell> ok and where is that network-manager thing?
[17:00] <Nekken> fosterdv : you're probably right... how can I check ?
[17:01] <dr_willis> dell,  network icon at top right normally.....
[17:01] <pinoyoragon> Need help here, happened after i installed bumblebee's optirun program: Weird thing, I can't boot properly to my 11.04 without pressing esc during boot. If i don't press ESC, it enters graphics mode then stalls showing only the mouse pointer but without the login box.
[17:01] <insmod> distroia: that's gnome thing unmaximize the window then it will work
[17:01] <thunsucker> dell: sudo find / | grep dhclient.conf
[17:01] <fosterdv> Nekken: That's what I found, when I looked up your laptop, on Google, and the Acer website.
[17:01] <shinsuke> is anachron a better version of cron or does it has disadvantages?
[17:01] <canurabus> thunsucker: yeah, but it gave me a dependency error (not the same one I get now). So I asked here, and someone suggested to run dist-upgrade (just like in the website you sent me). That didn't work though -- one of the packages that was being installed during the upgrade went into an infinite loop and that broke many things (I'm guessing), which leads me to where I am now :/
[17:02] <llutz> shinsuke: anacron is handy if your computer doesn't run 24/7
[17:02] <w30> dell, if you google for google's public dns they will show how to install their dns numbers for all; Mac Windows, Linux
[17:02] <RobinJ> how can i speed up my laptop's fans so it doesn't get so hot? Ubuntu controls them automatically but it doesn't seem to set them high enough... When running a VM it gets up to 90°C and all guides for fancontrol i can find on google are outdated....
[17:02] <thunsucker> canurabus: for eacy dependency error, do the same. sudo apt-get install -f install dependency-package
[17:02] <javier__> keyboard laptop not working in grub2. Someone knows how to fix that?
[17:02] <dr_willis> javier__,  check the bios settings see if theres a legacy usb option you can enable
[17:02] <shinsuke> llutz, i know. cron cant. so is there even a point in learning cron?
[17:03] <RobinJ> javier__: doesn't enter work either? on my father's laptop things like "e" and "ctrl+x" aren't working, but just the arrow keys and enter do work fine
[17:03] <javier__> dr_willis:but why usb?
[17:03] <dr_willis> because.. :) its a setting ivce had to enabvle to get usb keyboardsd working in grub ....
[17:03] <javier__> RobinJ: not even enter or arrow keys working
[17:03] <theadmin> dr_willis: It's not a USB keyboard for him tho
[17:03] <llutz> shinsuke: install anacron and define your cronjobs as usual. anacron will take care of them then
[17:03] <RobinJ> javier__: thats crap xd
[17:03] <insmod> canurabus: apt-get -f install
[17:04] <llutz> shinsuke: anacron isn't a cron-replacement
[17:04] <propman> canurabus:   might want to look at  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/606652
[17:04] <dell> w30:that was helpful
[17:04] <dr_willis> theadmin,  hard to tell on a laptop.. other then that setting.. good luck i guess..
[17:04] <JakeR003> someone is flooding the channel! and he is called floodbot
[17:04] <shinsuke> llutz, thanks. you saved me hours. have a nice day
[17:04] <MichaelDeaton> I have a question. D: To install the new official release of JDK7, do I download the .rpm or the .bin?
[17:04] <javier__> i thought changing grub2 to grub legacy, but couldn't make it...
[17:04] <RobinJ> javier__: not an unknown bug either: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/771376
[17:05] <theadmin> MichaelDeaton: The .bin, .rpms are dangerous on Ubuntu
[17:05] <MichaelDeaton> Ohh okay. may I ask why they're dangerous?
[17:05] <theadmin> MichaelDeaton: Because they're not for Debian-based systems.
[17:05] <canurabus> insmod: tried that... many times =p
[17:06] <MichaelDeaton> Ohhh. So just download the .bin? Then open it with software center?
[17:06] <canurabus> propman: that bug is unrelated to my current issue
[17:06] <javier__> RobinJ: I think that bug you mention is with USB keyboard
[17:06] <dr_willis> MichaelDeaton,   you run the bin.. you may want toread their install docs..
[17:06] <thunsucker> MichaelDeaton: try to find a package for debian/ubuntu as a.deb
[17:06] <MichaelDeaton> There's not one...  http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/java-se-jre-7-download-432155.html
[17:07] <MichaelDeaton> Which one on that page do I get?
[17:07] <dr_willis> MichaelDeaton,  there may be a PPA for it.
[17:07] <MichaelDeaton> I need to update to JRE7 for some games I play.
[17:07] <RobinJ> yours isnt a USB one?
[17:07] <fosterdv> Nekken: Did you say something http://www.frihost.com/forums/vt-125948.htmlabout alsamixer?
[17:07] <fosterdv> Nekken: http://www.frihost.com/forums/vt-125948.html
[17:07] <RobinJ> make sure it isn't plugged in to the mouse port. it will work in ubuntu but not with grub. the keyboard port is usually the purple one
[17:08] <dataworm>  ww
[17:08] <thunsucker> MichaelDeaton: http://www.shinephp.com/install-jdk-7-on-ubuntu/
[17:08] <MichaelDeaton> I need JRE not JDK
[17:08] <change> hello

[17:08] <dr_willis> jdk will run stuff also i belve.. just a bigger package
[17:08] <RobinJ> oh right xd
[17:08] <MichaelDeaton> Yeah.. I can't spare the bandwith.
[17:08] <Shadowwolf> Um, I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 to my computer because I deleted a partition which apparently had the GRUB 2 bootloader (with linux Mint on it, which was why I deleted it in the first place) or something.. so now my computer doesn't boot. But I'm not sure if I should put the Ubuntu on a new partition from free space and if so, how big the partition should be. :S
[17:08] <MichaelDeaton> It'll take an hour to get JDK.
[17:09] <MichaelDeaton> Only 9 minutes for JRE.
[17:09] <RobinJ> good luck javier__ :p http://www.google.be/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=keyboard+not+working+grub2
[17:09] <fosterdv> Nekken: Try following this: http://computerandu.wordpress.com/2011/06/19/how-to-solve-no-sound-through-laptop-integrated-speakers-in-ubuntu-11-04/
[17:09] <insmod> canurabus: did you clean the  cache - because i would cd /var/cache/apt/archives and use dpkg --force-help
[17:09] <dr_willis> so you dont get to play some game for an hr......
[17:09] <insmod> canurabus: dpkg --force
[17:09] <change> I installed Ubuntu 10.04 and my Window 7 primary partition was corrupted. :((
[17:10] <thunsucker> MichaelDeaton: http://download.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/webnotes/install/linux/linux-jre.html#install-32
[17:10] <MichaelDeaton> You have to use your windows 7 DVD to repair your windows 7 partition.
[17:10] <delinquentme> anyone here use bamboo tablets ? are the fairly easy to install on ubuntu and do they run fairly well?
[17:10] <MichaelDeaton> I had to fix mine as well.
[17:11] <w30> Shadowwolf, I beleive the live cd can boot your ubuntu from thr hard drive; If you can then you can install grub back to the mbr.
[17:11] <canurabus> insmod: how can I clean the cache?
[17:11] <Shadowwolf> w30 I'm not sure how to do that. :(
[17:12] <insmod> canurabus: you don't want to if you want to fix it
[17:12] <Shadowwolf> And I'm not quite sure what you mean.
[17:12] <w30> Shadowwolf, see if the live cd boot menu gives you that option?
[17:13] <canurabus> insmod: I'm a little confused... I went to the folder you noted. What am I supposed to do there? And what should I use dpkg for?
[17:13] <Shadowwolf> w30, exactly what option am I searching for?
[17:14] <Jordan_U> Shadowwolf: I would just tell the Ubuntu installer to use the available free space.
[17:14] <MichaelDeaton> Does anyone know of any good user scripts packs that are helpful?
[17:14] <insmod> canurabus: with that you can force them to install -- that will mabe fix it -- or use it to downgrade packages
[17:14] <MichaelDeaton> I have a few like, "Open terminal in directory" etc.
[17:14] <dr_willis> there is a neat little Ubuntu variant-live cd that comes with 'boot-repair' tool    Hope its the default in the next release ---> http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10084551&postcount=1
[17:14] <w30> Shadowwolf, boot ubuntu from a hard drive option
[17:14] <Jordan_U> w30: I think you misunderstand Shadowwolf's situation, he's not trying to recover an old install. He wants to do a fresh install.
[17:14] <Nekken> Sorry... needed to reboot
[17:14] <Shadowwolf> Oh yeah.
[17:15] <Shadowwolf> You see, I never had ubuntu on my disk, although I did have linux MINT.
[17:15] <Jordan_U> w30: And as he deleted the (Mint) partition, there is nothing currently there to boot.
[17:15] <Shadowwolf> And I deleted that partition without realizing GRUB 2 was on it.
[17:15] <Shadowwolf> My friend told me installing Ubuntu should fix the problem.. although Im' not sure how yet. Haha.
[17:15] <Double_Rainbow> hello there
[17:15] <Double_Rainbow> i am running ubuntu 11.04 from cd rom
[17:16] <Nekken> "aplay -l" replied : "no sound card found"
[17:16] <w30> Jordan_U, ok, I missed his thought on that sorry Shadowwolf
[17:16] <dr_willis> Shadowwolf,  there was an original problem?
[17:16] <Double_Rainbow> how do i format my hard drive with Fat 32?
[17:16] <stuffed-crust> how can i get my 5.1 surround sound card give me the options to run 4 channels or even 5, although i only need 4 for what i want
[17:16] <Nekken> That's why I don't have sound ... how can I declare it ?
[17:16] <llutz> Double_Rainbow: sudo mkfs.vfat -F32 /dev/sdXY
[17:16] <fosterdv> Nekken: Follow the second link I sent you.
[17:16] <Double_Rainbow> llutz: is there a gui alternative?
[17:16] <Shadowwolf> dr_willis, what are you referring to?
[17:16] <fosterdv> Nekkon: See if this works, http://computerandu.wordpress.com/2011/06/19/how-to-solve-no-sound-through-laptop-integrated-speakers-in-ubuntu-11-04/
[17:17] <Shadowwolf> The problem of it not booting?
[17:17] <dr_willis> Shadowwolf,  you said installing ubuntu woulkd fix somthing..,
[17:17] <llutz> Double_Rainbow: maybe, never needed one
[17:17] <Jordan_U> Double_Rainbow: Yes, GParted.
[17:17] <Shadowwolf> Yes. The problem of not booting.
[17:17] <Shadowwolf> When I start it, I get error: no such partition
[17:17] <Nekken> I did, but the link just say "i have a problem", not the solution... :-(
[17:17] <dr_willis> Shadowwolf,  reinstalling ubuntu to fix ubuntu not booting?
[17:17] <insmod> stuffed-crust:alsamixer or pavucontrol
[17:17] <Shadowwolf> No.
[17:17] <Shadowwolf> Nothing boots.
[17:17] <stuffed-crust> insmod: thank you, ill check them out
[17:17] <Shadowwolf> I've never had it on.
[17:17] <Shadowwolf> Er.
[17:17] <Shadowwolf> I've never had ubuntu.
[17:17] <Shadowwolf> But I've always had a LiveCD lying around.
[17:18] <Double_Rainbow> cool thanks
[17:18] <Jordan_U> Shadowwolf: Do you have another OS which hasn't been deleted, like Windows, which you would like to be able to boot?
[17:18] <Shadowwolf> Yes.
[17:18] <Shadowwolf> Windows 7.
[17:18] <Shadowwolf> But I don't know how to allow it to boot.
[17:18] <dr_willis> Shadowwolf,  you might get lucky and try the  live cd is aw that has a fixboot tool -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10084551&postcount=1   in theory it should fix ubuntu, that will let you boot the other os;s
[17:18] <Shadowwolf> I don't have ubuntu.
[17:18] <Shadowwolf> :/
[17:18] <Jordan_U> Shadowwolf: That can be fixed without installing Ubuntu (though installing Ubuntu will also fix it).
[17:19] <willwh> hi guys - any suggestions for monitoring websites? (I've been using zenoss - but the check_http plugin produces a lot of false positives)
[17:19] <rawfodog> How do I access my ubuntu cloud from windows ? I downloaded ubuntu One beta for win7. It installs. But I see no feature to access the files I uploaded from ubuntu ? I got a bunch of files from work on there that I need to pull from the cloud
[17:19] <Shadowwolf> Jordan_U, well, how else can i fix it considering I don't have the windows 7 CD?
[17:19] <jorgeeer> jajajajaja
[17:19] <Jordan_U> Shadowwolf: You can restore a Microsoft style MBR using an Ubuntu LiveCD.
[17:19] <Shadowwolf> How?
[17:20] <K-Rich> hey all
[17:20] <FroyoShark> hi there
[17:20] <Captainkrtek> hi
[17:20] <Bfh> Hello Wondering if anyone can tell me how to change my screen brightness, also if some1 can tell me how to change the power mode (like in windows7 -- power saver / normal / high performance )
[17:20] <Jordan_U> Shadowwolf: sudo software-properties-gtk -e universe && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install mbr && sudo install-mbr /dev/sda
[17:21] <stuffed-crust> insmod: will following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure get me there ?
[17:21] <fosterdv> Nekken: I missed the last think you said, you tried to follow their steps in that second link, and it said what?
[17:21] <Shadowwolf> Jordan_U, alright. So, I just do those in Terminal, and then restart?
[17:21] <Nekken> ... pff ....
[17:21] <fosterdv> That's what it said?
[17:22] <pinoyoragon> My 11.04 stalls and shows only the mouse pointer and default background everytime i boot and not pressing ESC.  But if I press ESC during boot, i can login and have a "normal" experience. y is that? anyone?
[17:22] <Jordan_U> Shadowwolf: Keeping in mind that the device, "/dev/sda" was only a guess (should be your first hard drive, but you should check) and that whatever device you choose it should *NOT* have a number after it, so "/dev/sdb" might be right but *NOT* "/dev/sdb1".
[17:23] <insmod> stuffed-crust:no
[17:23] <Shadowwolf> Ok. Thanks, Jordan_U. lemme give it a wack.
[17:23] <stuffed-crust> insmod: phew!
[17:23] <willwh> Bfh: System > Preferences > Power Management
[17:23] <Shadowwolf> Jordan_U, I tried the second command, and I got a bunch of "Failed to fetch" errors. :(
[17:23] <Shadowwolf> The sudo apt-get update
[17:23] <JohnM_> hi there, quick question, how can i install a program (using apt-get) to a specific directory?
[17:24] <willwh> JohnM_: why would you want to do that?
[17:24] <Shadowwolf> Apparently it couldn't resolve 'archive.ubuntu.com'.
[17:24] <dr_willis> JohnM_,  not sure thats doable.
[17:24] <tsimpson> JohnM_: quick answer, you can't
[17:24] <hagus> How do I add to the list of repositories?   I want to install python's pyramid framework.
[17:24] <perlsyntax> anyone use playinlinux before?
[17:24] <dr_willis> JohnM_,  you can extract the .dev somewhere..
[17:24] <dr_willis> .deb is an arhive  you can open/extract
[17:24] <JohnM_> ah ok, what about through dpkg?
[17:24] <perlsyntax> My question is it don't copy it ask for onre cd?
[17:24] <JohnM_> i tried the --instdir option but im getting a couple of errors from what i assume are dependecies
[17:25] <perlsyntax> odd
[17:25] <Shadowwolf> Jordan_U, same thing happened with mbr.
[17:25] <Troy^> How do i remove something from apt-get update.. i added a ppa repository i believe of elegant-gnome but its non-existent and gives me this output W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/elegant-gnome/ppa/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/source/Sources  404  Not Found
[17:25] <Troy^>  everytime i do a sudo apt-get install
[17:25] <Troy^> err sudo apt-get update

[17:26] <dr_willis> Troy^,  remove the entry to that ppa in /etc/apt/sources.list.d or sources.list
[17:26] <Captainkrtek> Troy^: it's either /etc/sources.list or /etc/apt/sources.list i dont recall
[17:27] <Troy^> it doesnt seem to be in there
[17:27] <Jordan_U> Shadowwolf: You need to be connnected to the internet.
[17:27] <coraxx> so anybody know of a GUI admin tool for Spamassassin ?  (preferably a non-webbased)
[17:27] <Shadowwolf> Oh.... duh...
[17:27] <Shadowwolf> :|
[17:27] <JohnM_> ignore that
[17:27] <Shadowwolf> Jordan_U, yeah, sorry.
[17:28] <Jordan_U> Shadowwolf: np :)
[17:28] <thrillERboy> is there a root account? if I installed Ubuntu Via wubi?
[17:28] <JohnM_> im an idiot, tried to isntall a lucid deb on maverick

[17:29] <willwh> Bfh: is power management enabled in your BIOS?
[17:29] <Kyle__> Jordan_U: Stop lying to him.  Everyone knows you just have to put "!*" through a password cracker to figure out the password
[17:30] <tonysan> I tried pipelining but not working: gunzip /var/log/mysql/mysql-slow.log.7.gz | ./slowquery.pl
[17:30] <tonysan> any clue?
[17:30] <Kyle__> and anyone beliving that should man shadow, but anyway.
[17:30] <TYDIRocks> Hello
[17:31] <TYDIRocks> I need help with getting Ubuntu installed on my virtual machine
[17:31] <Kyle__> tonysan: man gzip, it doesn't output to console by default
[17:31] <tonysan> Kyle__: thanks
[17:31] <coraxx> TYDIRocks: yes...I can maybe help ...are u having problems ?
[17:31] <TYDIRocks> Yes
[17:31] <fosterdv> Bye all, have a great day.
[17:32] <Kyle__> tonysan: You want "gzip -d -c" btw, but reading through man gzip will definately help alot :)
[17:32] <coraxx> TYDIRocks: which are ?
[17:32] <TYDIRocks> One second, let me see what it says
[17:32] <TYDIRocks> I believe it is an error with BusyBox
[17:32] <TYDIRocks> Do you want a screen shot?
[17:32] <Kyle__> TYDIRocks: What type of VM?  I've installed it in several systems, and well, it just goes usually....
[17:32] <stuffed-crust> how can i find out where wget downloads files too ?
[17:33] <Kyle__> stuffed-crust: Your current working directory.
[17:33] <TYDIRocks> What do you mean which type of VM? I'm using ViMWare Workstation
[17:33] <AlphaMail> lol
[17:33] <TYDIRocks> VMWare*
[17:33] <Kyle__> stuffed-crust: If you used a -r, by default it will make a directory named for the server you got it from, in your current working directory.
[17:33] <tonysan> Kyle__: I tried -d -c but it says gzip: /var/log/mysql/mysql-slow.log.7.gz: No such file or directory
[17:33] <stuffed-crust> Kyle__ : cool thx :)
[17:33] <AlphaMail> vim ~/.wgetrc
[17:33] <AlphaMail> man wget
[17:34] <coraxx> TYDIRocks: I use VirtualBox myself ...so if's not an issue withing the virtual machine...but the outer environment, then I'm not sure how much help I will be...but let me see the screenshot....maybe we'll get lucky ;-)
[17:34] <Kyle__> TYDIRocks: Yup, that's what I meant.  Humm... VMWare presents a very streightforward modern machine...
[17:34] <TYDIRocks> Alrighty
[17:34] <coraxx> TYDIRocks: (And remember to type who you are chatting with)
[17:34] <TYDIRocks> coraxx: okay
[17:34] <Kyle__> tonysan: Make sure it that logfile didn't rotate out of there already :) ls it.
[17:35] <Kyle__> tonysan: If you really need to analyze a particular logfile, make sure it's not at risk of being rotated out!
[17:35] <tonysan> Kyle__: thanks...it disappeared mysteriously
[17:35] <TYDIRocks> coraxx: Here is the image link: http://k.min.us/ijwNE8.png
[17:35] <tonysan> but I have plenty of logs to analyse
[17:37] <Pici> tonysan: gunzip usually does an in-place decompress.
[17:37] <coraxx> TYDIRocks: looks like data-error ...that either the virtual CD-image file is corrupted ....or its the setup with the virtual CD-drive
[17:38] <TYDIRocks> Do you know how I could fix it? I've already redownloaded it once
[17:38] <TYDIRocks> Sorry, coraxx: Do you know how I could fix it? I've already redownloaded it once
[17:38] <Kyle__> TYDIRocks: did you md5sum your iso?
[17:38] <coraxx> TYDIRocks: which .iso file did you use ...and where did you download it from ?
[17:38] <TYDIRocks> coraxx: I downloaded it from the ubuntu website
[17:38] <TYDIRocks> coraxx: the 32-bit version
[17:39] <AlphaMail> rsync can fix broken downloads
[17:39] <Ramses> suport?
[17:39] <tonysan> Pici: thanks, I found it
[17:39] <coraxx> TYDIRocks: its the server version right ?
[17:39] <oCean> Ramses: what's up?
[17:40] <TYDIRocks> I don't believe so
[17:40] <AlphaMail> you will need to choose the right command line though and that can be a pain
[17:40] <AlphaMail> *cwrsync
[17:40] <hagus> I want to install pyramid from https://www.pylonsproject.org/ .  How do I achieve this in an Ubuntuesque way?
[17:40] <TYDIRocks> coraxx: I used the "Download and Install>"
[17:40] <Ramses> I am trying to encrypt my music files
[17:40] <Ramses> apt get what?
[17:40] <Jordan_U> Shadowwolf: Were you able to connect to the internet and follow my instructions?
[17:40] <coraxx> TYDIRocks: ok...then its the Desktop version... (if you give me the full name of the .iso file, then I can tell you which one)
[17:40] <AlphaMail> Ramses, why ?, is it Gothic Heavy Metal ?
[17:41] <Shadowwolf> I was having trouble getting on the internet, but just got it. ;)
[17:41] <TYDIRocks> coraxx: ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso
[17:41] <Shadowwolf> Thanks.
[17:41] <Ramses> my kids cannot listen to this music
[17:41] <Kyle__> AlphaMail: normal rsync will update files if they're different, or fix them, in this case.  What's cwrsync?
[17:41] <hagus> How do I manage to include https://www.pylonsproject.org/ in my repositories?
[17:41] <Monotoko> Ramses, can't you just give your kinds there own account?
[17:42] <Ramses> ok thanks.
[17:42] <Monotoko> *kids
[17:42] <Shadowwolf> Jordan_U, alright. Commands executed. :D
[17:42] <AlphaMail> ahh, yea, use cryptsetup
[17:42] <coraxx> TYDIRocks: When you download from Ubuntu.com it usally find a "mirror-site" for the download...based on you geographic location...I will recommend that you either redownload from the offcial server or as Kyle suggested, test the existing one with the MD5 checksum
[17:42] <Monotoko> seems like the simplest way to me...correct me if I'm wrong
[17:42] <Jordan_U> Shadowwolf: Try rebooting.
[17:43] <Shadowwolf> Jordan_U, rebooting now..
[17:43]  * Shadowwolf crosses fingers.
[17:43] <Pici> hagus: This looks like it might be helpful: https://launchpad.net/~ukplc-team/+archive/pyramid
[17:43] <TYDIRocks> coraxx: How can I get my checksum on windows 7?
[17:43]  * Shadowwolf crosses Jordan_U's fingers.
[17:43] <Ramses> wrong channel
[17:43] <AlphaMail> cwrsync is the windows version, sorry I thought there may be windows people here, I have no idea why
[17:43] <Pici> hagus: The pacakges look like they've already been included in the next release of Ubuntu though.
[17:43] <Shadowwolf> Um.
[17:43] <coraxx> TYDIRocks: I'm assuming you are booting from the virtual .iso image ... and not an actual CD-Drive with a Ubuntu-CD in it
[17:44] <shearn89> hey everyone: quick question. Is there any way to format free space on an external drive as HFS+, without changing the structure from master boot record?
[17:44] <Kyle__> TYDIRocks: Holdon, trying to remember the name of the package...
[17:44] <hareldvd> The volume control on the panel is gone. Any idea?
[17:44] <Shadowwolf> "Windows Failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:"
[17:44] <Shadowwolf> Jordan_U, ^
[17:44] <TYDIRocks> coraxx: Correct, I'm just using the iso
[17:44] <coraxx> TYDIRocks: thought so...just had to be sure ;-)
[17:44] <Shadowwolf> The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible.
[17:45] <Kyle__> TYDIRocks: http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/
[17:45] <Shadowwolf> Status: 0xc000000e
[17:45] <Shadowwolf> D:
[17:45] <Ramses> hummm, let me think
[17:45] <boris123> test hi
[17:45] <Kyle__> TYDIRocks: That's a little package of unix utilities for windows, and it includes an md5sum.exe binary
[17:45] <Ramses> 0xc0000000e is permission denied
[17:45] <boris123> does natty narwal still do a disk check after 30 boots?
[17:45] <Jordan_U> Shadowwolf: This is now a better question for ##windows.
[17:46] <TYDIRocks> Kyle__: Okay thanks, I'll check it out. Also where can I find the checksum on the the ubuntu website? I don't see it
[17:46] <hagus> Thanks for your help Pici :)
[17:46] <theadmin> boris123: If you need that, you can make it do so by modifying fstab appropriately. Not sure if it defaults to that.
[17:46] <boris123> wondering if i need to disable forced disk check on natty....
[17:46] <Kyle__> TYDIRocks: If you really want to be nuts, you could could write your own little md5sum binary using the included .net compiler in windows...but seriously, who wants to write in .net?
[17:46] <boris123> thx admin
[17:46] <Shadowwolf> Jordan_U, alright. THanks for the help.
[17:47] <TYDIRocks> Kyle__: I code some in .net xD
[17:47] <Ramses> I can create this simple md5 utiity to you for any OS
[17:47] <Kyle__> ...but since md5 digests are included, it's actually a trivial program to write....
[17:47] <theadmin> Kyle__: I write .NET xD
[17:47] <theadmin> Kyle__: Yeah I know
[17:47] <Ramses> I will compile it to you, wait
[17:47] <Kyle__> TYDIRocks: Then create a File object, and find which Digest:MD5 object or whatever it is in that syntax :) easy easy.
[17:47] <shearn89> does anyone know if you can format hfs+ on a disk with master boot record scheme?
[17:47] <TYDIRocks> Kyle__: How exactly do I uuse this program? I opened it and it's just a blank cmd
[17:48] <Kyle__> theadmin: I used to be a test-developer for a really heavy .Net shop.
[17:48] <Jordan_U> Shadowwolf: You're welcome.
[17:48] <zen_> why does my ubuntu want to uninstall grub-efi and install grub-pc instead?
[17:48] <Kyle__> TYDIRocks: md5sum.exe file_you_want_checksum_of.foo
[17:48] <trism> TYDIRocks: http://releases.ubuntu.com/11.04/MD5SUMS (if you're still looking)
[17:48] <Jordan_U> !details | zen_
[17:49] <Kyle__> zen_: You're using ubuntu on an intel-macintosh?
[17:49] <zen_> I just installed ubuntu on my laptop and I've had to reinstall it twice because it uninstalls grub-efi and I can't figure out how to recover it
[17:49] <ke1ha> TYDIRocks: if you download or test allot of ISO's or even jsut a few, you may want to try the ubuntu-qa tools, it downloads and MD5's them as well, all done automatically: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/natty/man1/dl-ubuntu-test-iso.1.html.
[17:49] <zen_> After it uninstalls grub-efi I get a grub error and it throws me into the recovery mode
[17:50] <zen_> Kyle__ no, it's a Lenovo Thinkpad x121e
[17:50] <TYDIRocks> ke1ha: okay, thanks for the tip
[17:50] <Kyle__> TYDIRocks: if you haven't used md5sum before, it seems odd, but many unix programs are like this: if you run it with an argument, it opens the file, without an argument, it's a filter you need to pipe things into.
[17:50] <Kyle__> zen_: OK that's just wierd.  grub-efi is generally only for EFI based machines.... intel-macintoshes and esoteric workstations.
[17:51] <TYDIRocks> Kyle__:I got the md5sum, where can I find the one on the website? I can't find it.
[17:51] <ke1ha> I use it every night to sync something like 20 to 25 ISO's, and get a report each morning, once ya setup the things ya want, it's very easy and fast to use.
[17:51] <oCean> !hashes | TYDIRocks
[17:51] <Jordan_U> zen_: When does grub-efi get removed?
[17:51] <TYDIRocks> oCean: thanks
[17:52] <zen_> Jordan_U when I run update manager
[17:52] <TYDIRocks> Hmm, seems the sums are different
[17:52] <elkclone> oops
[17:52] <canurabus> hiya, I'm trying to resolve some broken packages -- but I have a circular dependency and wanted to ask how to resolve it. Specifically 'perl' depends on 'perl-modules' and vice versa
[17:52] <zen_> It wants to install some miscellaneous updates, and remove grub-efi
[17:52] <TYDIRocks> Guess I'll have to download again lol
[17:53] <Jordan_U> zen_: Can you pastebin the output of "sudo apt-get upgrade" before grub-efi is removed?
[17:53] <TYDIRocks> Kyle__: So how can I get a direct download? when I press Direct url for this download it shows a different website
[17:54] <Kyle__> TYDIRocks: It redirected you to a mirror probably.  Should be a fine download still.
[17:54] <TYDIRocks> Kyle__: Alright
[17:55] <microsoft_> Hey :D
[17:55] <microsoft_> Supp?
[17:55] <ke1ha> TYDIRocks: are you using rsync / zsync or direct url iso downloads?
[17:55] <TYDIRocks> ke1ha: I
[17:55] <microsoft_> Whatlol ? :D
[17:55] <S4nD3r> Hi there. how to reinstall a i915 driver to video card? It's looks broken. Any help?
[17:55] <TYDIRocks> ke1ha: I'm downloading from the ubuntu.com website
[17:56] <zen_> Jordan_U, doesn't look like anything interesting, doesn't even mention grub. http://pastebin.com/SVTamJ6n
[17:56] <ke1ha> TYDIRocks: You may want to consider using rsync or zsync to download ISO's.
[17:56] <Kyle__> zen_: Jordan_U: Could that laptop actually use EFI instead of a standard bios?
[17:56] <ke1ha> TYDIRocks: and use cdimage.ubuntu.com for the source.
[17:56] <zen_> Kyle__, I assume that's why it installed grub-efi.
[17:57] <Monotoko> hey guys...is there any version of Linux that will run in 32mb of RAM and a 200mhz processor? ._.
[17:57] <Gunnar> Salut tout le monde
[17:57] <enjoycrf> hi
[17:57] <enjoycrf> are the ## chans the registered ones?
[17:57] <oCean> enjoycrf: Actually those are 'non-official' channels, but /join #freenode for network help.
[17:57] <Kyle__> zen_: I had the 'apt-get upgrade' replacing grub-efi issue on my mac minis with 10.x and 11.04-beta, but after 11.04 was properly released, it fixed itself...
[17:58] <Kyle__> Monotoko: Plenty, look up puppy linux on wikipedia, follow links from there.
[17:58] <enjoycrf> seems like chatting it up is more hassle than i thot
[17:58] <zen_> Kyle__, it seems to only want to replace grub-efi when I run update manager, not apt-get upgrade
[17:58] <ke1ha> Monotoko: also DSL, but I think it takes 50MB to run, but may do less, I like it better than puppy.
[17:59] <theadmin> Monotoko: You might also like SliTaz - takes only 30MB of disk space, and with RAM... idk honestly.
[17:59] <MrNthDegree> Monotoko, Damn Small Linux is a good bet there.  It can run on a 486
[17:59] <genii-around> enjoycrf: In here it is more about support for Ubuntu. For subjects not relating to Ubuntu support, there is also #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:59] <Kyle__> zen_: That's just...weird.  But considering I run the ubuntu-macs console only, I'm not surprised I didn't run into that.
[17:59] <MrNthDegree> Monotoko, from their site:  "Run light enough to power a 486DX with 16MB of Ram"
[18:00] <Kyle__> zen_: Bug report time :/
[18:00] <zen_> Kyle__, yeah I suppose so.
[18:00] <Kyle__> I miss tomsrtbt.
[18:00] <Kyle__> It was a great single-floppy distro.
[18:00] <diamonds> is /etc an appropriate place to put a shared (across users) directory?
[18:00] <diamonds> or /var?
[18:01] <theadmin> diamonds: /usr/share?
[18:01] <diamonds> theadmin: ahh! Thank you
[18:01] <Kyle__> diamonds: ACK  Not in /etc.  I'd say /var, if you have the space for it.  Otherwise /home is actually a good place.
[18:01] <TYDIRocks> Alright, checksum is the same now :D
[18:01] <Kyle__> TYDIRocks: WHohoo!  Always an important check.
[18:01] <TYDIRocks> Yup
[18:02] <TYDIRocks> Hopefully this works

[18:03] <Kyle__> OK, I need to do real work.  It's just no fun soemtimes.
[18:03] <diamonds> ooh I should print that out
[18:03] <Pici> diamonds: also in manpage format: man hier
[18:03] <ke1ha> There's a Wiki on it as well, just search Linux Folder or Dile Structure, you pull it up.
[18:04] <ke1ha> whoops Folder or File ... Keep in mind, each Distro may do things a little diffrent, but those are general assumptions.
[18:04] <theadmin> ke1ha: It's FHS.
[18:04] <theadmin> ke1ha: Filesystem Hierarchy Standard.
[18:05] <theadmin> That's what one should search for

[18:08] <Onepamopa> anyone know how to manage service <name> start/stop ?
[18:09] <Onepamopa> I want to change 1 of those services to point in the right direction
[18:09] <theadmin> Onepamopa: /etc/init/*
[18:09] <theadmin> Onepamopa: Look around that directory.
[18:09] <Pici> Onepamopa: /etc/init/ holds the upstart jobs, but not necessarily the configuration files for the services themselves.
[18:09] <Pici> Onepamopa: Which service are you trying to modify, and to what end?
[18:10] <Onepamopa> Pici I removed mysql and installed percona @ my server
[18:10] <Onepamopa> init.d/mysql works fine
[18:10] <Onepamopa> but when I write service mysql start
[18:10] <Onepamopa> it loads and loads and does nothing
[18:11] <ke1ha> Pici: aren't the conf files in /etc/init and the actual scripts in /etc/init.d  ..?
[18:11] <Onepamopa> thats my questions - are they or not ?
[18:11] <Pici> ke1ha: It depends if the package has been migrated to upstart or not.
[18:11] <Biohazardsteven> Hey is anybody able to help me with my xonar essence ST, I searched google and found one thread but the links are dead....
[18:11] <Onepamopa> Pici yes, it works @ my laptop
[18:11] <Pici> !upstart | Onepamopa This might be helpful if you're planning on writing the config file yourself.
[18:12] <ke1ha> Pici: Undrtstand that upstart would put the conf in /etc/init   and anythign in the locaiton would upstart but the control scripts I think, Im gonna go look, are in /init.d
[18:13] <glebihan> ke1ha, in /etc/init, you'll find find upstart scripts (which are not config files, or at least not only)
[18:14] <genii-around> ke1ha: /etc/init/name.conf are scripts to start services using upstart methode, one of the files is rc-sysinit.conf  which is used to start the old sysvinit scripts which are in /etc/init.d
[18:14] <glebihan> ke1ha, in /etc/init.d you'll find sys V init scripts, which are progressively being replaced by upstart scripts
[18:14] <Biohazardsteven> Hey, Is there anybody able to help me with my Xonar Essence ST, It shows up under aplay -l but there is no output to my headphones....
[18:14] <Pici> genii-around: took the words out of my mouth.
[18:14] <S4nD3r> Could you please, tell me the process to install a i915 driver to video card? This looks broken and is not working properly.
[18:14] <ke1ha> Hmmm, well, in my /etc/init  the onl;y thing that in there are .conf file, an all the scripts are ion inti.d ... this is interesting.
[18:14] <glebihan> ke1ha, some upstart scripts do call scripts in /etc/init.d as the workaround to completely rewriting init scripts
[18:15] <glebihan> ke1ha, they are .conf files but are not really configuration files, look at some of them and you'll see that it's more than that
[18:15] <vincentvdBergh> good evening
[18:16] <Biohazardsteven> Hey, Is there anybody able to help me with my Xonar Essence ST, It shows up under aplay -l but there is no output to my headphones....
[18:17] <iderik> How do I see what sdx my usbkey has? is it possible to print all sdx?
[18:17] <theadmin> Biohazardsteven: Check levels under alsamixer?
[18:17] <ke1ha> glebihan: l;ooks like there's specifiying runlevels and things, but not allof of control actions in them. I need to go review this whole upstart thing I suppose.
[18:17] <Biohazardsteven> I have and there up
[18:18] <glebihan> ke1ha, some contain scripts sections, some of them just an "exec" line specifying the command to run...
[18:18] <iderik> How do I see what sdx my usbkey has? is it possible to print all sdx? I've tried to google but without result. Thanks
[18:18] <glebihan> ke1ha, but yes you would probably be better of checking some documentation
[18:18] <zen_> Kyle__, I found a setting in the BIOS where it can either boot in UEFI, or Legacy. I set it to Legacy now and I'm doing the update so it installs grub-pc and uninstalls grub-efi.
[18:18] <Pici> iderik: After you plug it in, use dmesg to determine what device it was assigned.
[18:18] <ivancp> I don't see my sound icon,  how to reset the status icons ?  (ubuntu 11.04 with gnome 2.32.1)
[18:19] <iderik> Pici: thanks!
[18:19] <feliznavidad> hello! i'm experiencing problems with my ubuntu8.04-ebox-cups network printer setup. i succeed in printing from a linux client, but from windows xp i get "access denied". i just know the problem is rather strange, because i don't even have corresponding entries in my cups/access_log for the windows client, only localhost entries... (I know this is an ubuntu channel, but maybe there is some cups/samba expert here)
[18:19] <ke1ha> glebihan: The other side of this is, or at least it appears to be, that not all services / servers are in upstart.
[18:20] <Biohazardsteven> Screenshot of alsamixer, http://i55.tinypic.com/2hyz4t3.png
[18:20] <Biohazardsteven> Could it be because the Xonar ST isn't the default soundcard??
[18:21] <OerHeks> Biohazardsteven, press F6 to change sound-device ?
[18:21] <Biohazardsteven> I had to do that, to change to Xonar ST
[18:21] <glebihan> ke1ha, well not all have migrated yet, but as genii-around said there is an upstart job to handle old sysvinit scripts
[18:21] <Biohazardsteven> how do I set Xonar ST as the default?
[18:22] <ke1ha> glebihan: pretty good reading at upstart.uuntu.com ... just having a gander at that now.
[18:23] <ke1ha> whoops upstart.ubuntu.com
[18:23] <zkam> can I ask a question about Ubuntu LiveCD persistence?
[18:23] <glebihan> ke1ha, yes there is good information there, and you'll see it's quite simple after all and much more powerful than sysvinit
[18:23] <Ru6yxx> Just solved the problem that Startup manager does not recognise saved default OS in multiple boot systems
[18:24] <OerHeks> Biohazardsteven, this old post should be still working > http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ubuntu-63/how-do-you-change-the-default-sound-card-in-k-ubuntu-499520/#post2508350
[18:24] <Biohazardsteven> I will look. Thanks
[18:25] <ke1ha> Yeah, and you can bounce, restart and do all sorts of neat things with just a couple lines, pretty easy compared to days of old.
[18:25] <Biohazardsteven> But, I don't have asoundconf and I tried to get it already?
[18:25] <Ru6yxx> But the solution probably means that unless Startup manager devs  deals with the bug, it should be avoided
[18:27] <Rehan> hi guys, i have a question. I currently have a Ubuntu 11.04 installed on my USB drive and I use it from there (it has persistence). I now want to use YUMI on the same flash drive so that I can have a choice between my ubuntu install and some other ISOs (win7, winxp, etc). Is there a way I can move my current Ubuntu install off of the USB, make it into an ISO and install back on to the USB with YUMI's installer? Thank you for con
[18:27] <Rehan> sidering my question.
[18:28] <dr_willis> ke1ha,  been tryng to bookmark any good upstart pages at  http://delicious.com/dr_willis  - i got one link so far. :)
[18:28] <kaellan> hi
[18:28] <catmando> hey all
[18:29] <kaellan> annyone playing dragon age orgins in wine geting massive amount of "flickering" Flashing in monitor?
[18:30] <theadmin> kaellan: Try disabling Compiz if it's on.
[18:30] <theadmin> kaellan: Other than that, it's a question directed to #winehq
[18:30] <dr_willis> Rehan,  copy your persistant save file somewhere.. and if yumi can set up to boot the iso file WITH persistance. in theory you could replace the persistance file it makes with the one you are using now.
[18:30] <kaellan> theadmin: how to disable Compis?
[18:30] <ke1ha> dr_willis:  on the blog page, they reference the upstart.ubuntu.com page a fair bit.
[18:31] <theadmin> kaellan: In earlier Ubuntu versions, System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Visual Effects, and I'm not sure about now
[18:31] <Biohazardsteven> 0erHeks, I don't have asoundconf
[18:31] <dr_willis> ke1ha,  havent been there ina bit . last i was . the docs for a 'user/beginner ' were a bit sparce. for a programer  a lot of info. :)  but someone mentioned this url the other day in here ....  http://upstart.at/2011/03/11/override-files-in-ubuntu-natty/
[18:32] <dr_willis> http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/ looks promiseing...
[18:33] <OerHeks> Biohazardsteven, i checked it too now, sorry for wrong info :(
[18:33] <Rehan> dr_willis: actually i don't know if i have a persistence save file...I think I actually had my ubuntu install on a regular hard drive first and then I used dd to copy it over to my USB, so its not really an ubuntu install on a USB as much as it is a hard drive version moved over.
[18:34] <ke1ha> dr_willis: that's a good page, I espeically like the comment toward the bottom: "man 5 init" is yrou friend :-)
[18:34] <Biohazardsteven> Oerheks, Is there any other siluttions?
[18:34] <dr_willis> Rehan,  Dont know how you would convert that to a persistant save.. other then doing a total remaster..  I rarely use persistant setups except for trivial ussage.
[18:36] <Rehan> dr_willis: is it possible to shrink my ubuntu partition, create a new FAT32 one on the usb and then put YUMI on that and somehow give myself the option to boot to my ubuntu install through that also?
[18:36] <dr_willis> Rehan,  if your pendrive is using grub2. ytou can set up grub2 to boot iso files.. but that may take some work..
[18:36] <Rehan> yeah its using grub2
[18:37] <dr_willis> Rehan,  its prob. possible to do what you mentioned.. but may be a bigger hassle then just getting a new pendrive. :)
[18:37] <dr_willis> I dont know how you boot a windows iso with grub2
[18:37] <Biohazardsteven> Should I run the ubuntu updates, I mean this is a clean install?
[18:37] <dr_willis> Biohazardsteven,  update every so often is a good idea...
[18:37] <dr_willis> Biohazardsteven,  id say at least every other week..
[18:38] <Biohazardsteven> I just installed this today.
[18:38] <Biohazardsteven> and no sound
[18:38] <dr_willis> Biohazardsteven,  try and update, and upgrade and see what gets pulled in.
[18:38] <Rehan> how can I "zip up" everything in a directory into one file from a terminal in ubuntu? Thank you
[18:38] <Rehan> dr_willis: thank you for all the help -- very helpful
[18:39] <DKDude36> hey guys i'm back. still having unsolvable no-error trouble getting ubuntu to do anything at all on my imac
[18:39] <dr_willis> Rehan,  use 'tar' with the right options oif you want to compress it..
[18:39] <DKDude36> black screens, no errors, nothing
[18:39] <dr_willis> bbl. gotta chase the kids.
[18:39] <dr_willis> DKDude36,  a PPC iMAC?

[18:40] <DKDude36> lol
[18:40] <ubi> Hello, may ask you a question about ubuntu?
[18:40] <Pici> Rehan: zip -r filename.zip folder   or tar -cvf file.tar.gz folder    (or cjf for tar.bz2)
[18:40] <trollboy> on the latest ubuntu, I no longer have a volume control in the notification area next to my clock..
[18:40] <Rehan> Pici: thank you
[18:41] <ke1ha> Rehan: tar -cvfz new-file-name.tgz dir-to-compress/  or   zip -rv9 myzipfile.zip /mydir  just a couple options

[18:44] <ke1ha> Rehan: A few small tutorials: http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2010/04/unix-tar-command-examples/

[18:45] <Rehan> kelha, awesome thanks!

[18:45] <ssst1> not even close
[18:46] <kaellan> how to terminate compositor? OR boot witout compositor enabled.

[18:47] <kv102t> So this is a firewall question but it's for a silly reason.. Anyway. I wanted to play some ubuntu games with a mate (e.g battle ships) Now on my firewall I have allowed the port for this appication but it just won't connect.  Can I see connections comming into ubuntu so I can check etc..
[18:47] <kv102t> Also is there a way to see open ports.
[18:47] <kaellan> how to look if im on GNOME?
[18:47] <NixNinja__> netstat
[18:48] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja_: Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I press Auto eth0 but it doesn't connect to the internet, I was having problems in Backtrack 5 too
[18:48] <ke1ha> kv102t: did you open andf port forward the same ports on yoru router?
[18:48] <ubi> ubuntu halt on reboot -

[18:48] <kv102t> ke1ha: Yes
[18:48] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__: In the IPv4 settings?
[18:48] <lauratika> is it possible to change the BIOS of my motherboard now american megatrends for an opensource one?
[18:48] <NixNinja__> yes
[18:49] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__: Do I set it to Manual, and then what do I add?
[18:49] <catmando> in case anyone is wondering, which you're probably not, it's evolution --express
[18:49] <NixNinja__> TYDIRocks, what is the subnet of the network you are on?
[18:49] <jessicajames> Sorry for asking again, but is anyone here good at fixing internal mic issues on ubuntu?
[18:49] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__: Is that what my local IP is?
[18:50] <ke1ha> kv102t: you can test if it's a firewall issue by temporarily disabling it: sudo ufw disable  ... then try your app, and ceck te results.
[18:50] <NixNinja__> TYDIRocks, yes do you have a windows computer on the same network?
[18:50] <kv102t> ke1ha: is it on by default?
[18:50] <ke1ha> kv102t: if it woirks, you know the FW iptables need fixing.
[18:50] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__: Yes, I'm running Ubuntu in a VMWare virtual machine, my local IP on this computer is <IP_ADDRESS>
[18:50] <ke1ha> kv102t: Mine is, so fo you, just disable it, and see.
[18:51] <NixNinja__> kv102t, try DMZing your computer from the hardware router and see if it works
[18:51] <kv102t> ke1ha: ok, is there gui for the firewall?
[18:51] <kaellan> how to terminate / kill / turn of "compositor" ?
[18:51] <lauratika> any one?
[18:52] <kv102t> NixNinja__:have done for testing but am awiting test.
[18:52] <NixNinja__> TYDIRocks, okay do and Ipconfig /all and copy that info down setup ubuntu static and use and IP one up or down from yours see if it works
[18:52] <ke1ha> kv102t: yes, it's gufw, but I wouldn't bother with that unless I knoew that was this issue. Also see NixNinja__ COMMENT ABOUT dmz.
[18:52] <oCean> lauratika: that's not an #ubuntu issue
[18:52] <ubi>  my ubuntu freezes on reboot
[18:53] <kv102t> ke1ha: yeh thanks. i need to wait to test...
[18:53] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__: So the Subnet mask and the Gateway are the same?
[18:53] <ke1ha> kv102t: ok, good luck with it.
[18:54] <traskers> for some reason a few applications (Marlin and Nautilus are the ones I've noticed) won't theme? They don't load any icons and the GTK theme is just Redmond.
[18:54] <Biohazardsteven> would you guys recommend following this if the updates don't do anything ? http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Module-virtuoso
[18:54] <NixNinja_> TYDIRocks, yes
[18:55] <kv102t> ke1ha: infact i just installed gufw so i had it.   current status is off
[18:55] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__, I did IP: <IP_ADDRESS>, Netmask: <IP_ADDRESS>, and gateway: <IP_ADDRESS> and a popup came up sayng connection established, but the internet still won't work
[18:55] <NixNinja_> from it ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[18:56] <TYDIRocks> Host Unreachable
[18:56] <ke1ha> kv102t: ok well ya know it's not ufw blocking anyting then, assuming it's off during testing.
[18:56] <CENSIRT> HI
[18:56] <NixNinja_> TYDIRocks, try pinging <IP_ADDRESS>
[18:57] <lastaid> Hello, has anyone experience with custom window managers for ubuntu?
[18:57] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__, Destination Host Unreachable still
[18:58] <ke1ha> kv102t: next things I'd be looking at is the Router of the box itself is not the issue.
[18:58] <NixNinja_> TYDIRocks, sounds like the virtual box is messed up is there a setting to configure the virtual ethernet adapter
[18:58] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja_, I'm not really sure, do you know how I could find out?
[18:59] <NixNinja_> are you using VMWare?

[19:00] <kv102t> tydirocks: try ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[19:00] <NixNinja_> TYDIRocks, shut down the vbox and right click on it and goto options or prefs and see if there is a network option
[19:00] <TYDIRocks> kv102t, that does not work
[19:00] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja_, Okay

[19:01] <kaellan> how to terminate "compis (compositor?)" ?
[19:02] <NixNinja_> bjPenn you most likely don't do a sudo apt-get install sendmail
[19:02] <kv102t> NixNinja_: OK i was just testing he had DNS settings otherwise domain names wouldn't work as you know...
[19:03] <NixNinja_> yeah that was why I had him ping <IP_ADDRESS> <--verizon
[19:03] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja_, the only thing I see I can edit dioing with networks is the type of connection. I've been using NAT, should I change what I'm using?
[19:03] <ke1ha> NixNinja_: if he's gettign the IP from the router, look at the router outbound and see it the router is actually getting to the net.
[19:03] <Pici> !floodbots | CENSIRT
[19:03] <NixNinja_> dhcp isn't passing through
[19:03] <NixNinja_> try changing it
[19:03] <kv102t> tydirocks: If t's not passing to vbox then i wouldn't have thought you would get IP settings as DHCP would need an UP network.
[19:04] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja_, Should I try changing it to a bridged connection?
[19:05] <ke1ha> TYDIRocks: what options are you being presented with?
[19:05] <NixNinja_> TYDIRocks, yes then set the IP to the same as what you have on you computer
[19:05] <kaellan> how to terminate "compiz (compositor?)" ?
[19:05] <kv102t> that will cause an IP conflict

Anyway, when im booting it says: "Configuration file not found." It feels like im just creating a file on my harddrive instead of on the usbmemory.
[19:06] <pr0ton> hey guys i had question about ssh
[19:06] <thunsucker> pr0ton: post question
[19:06] <pr0ton> so what would be the normal network speed, you'd need so as to edit files remotely (via SSH)?
[19:06] <thunsucker> pr0ton: it would probably work over 56k, why do you ask
[19:07] <ke1ha> TYDIRocks: NixNinja_if NAT isn't working, that's an issue, but you could try bridged. Additinoally, DHCP is best in VBOX if you cna get it too work.
[19:07] <Rehan> guys i have ubuntu installed on my USB drive and am wondering if there is any way to also have ISOs for win7 and winXP on there as well so that i could choose to boot from either 1 of the 3 on startup
[19:07] <pr0ton> i have a .75M internet connection
[19:07] <kaellan> how to terminate "compiz"?
[19:07] <pr0ton> and  i find editing files via vi, to be pretty slow
[19:07] <NixNinja_> not on USB Rehan
[19:07] <thunsucker> pr0ton: so a 768kbps connection?
[19:07] <pr0ton> is it a problem with my virtual box, or is SSH slow?
[19:07] <NixNinja_> Microsoft doesn't suport that
[19:07] <kv102t> rehan: i think it is. I have seena project for it ! sec
[19:07] <pr0ton> yeah, 768 maybe, but company markets as 750kbps
[19:08] <thunsucker> pr0ton: what part of your ssh is slow?
[19:08] <thunsucker> pr0ton: connecting, typing commands, or what
[19:08] <pr0ton> thunsucker, when i'm editing files or typing commands, there is a lag
[19:08] <pr0ton> typing commands
[19:08] <pr0ton> connecting also actually... connecting is like 5-20 secs
[19:08] <thunsucker> pr0ton: are you inside a vbox VM that connections thru SSH to a remote machine?
[19:08] <Rehan> kv102t: thanks
[19:08] <pr0ton> pr0ton, not on a vbox VM
[19:08] <Rehan> kv102t: i know about the YUMI installer but I'm not sure how to get it to work with my unique situation
[19:09] <BiohazardSteven> I would like to thank everyone who tried to help me, I got it fixed by updating ubuntu :p
[19:09] <thunsucker> pr0ton: okay better question, what machine are you sshing from,your local machine or a vm?
[19:09] <ke1ha> BiohazardSteven: Well done !!
[19:09] <OerHeks> BiohazardSteven, great !
[19:09] <thunsucker> BiohazardSteven: woooot!
[19:09] <pr0ton> thunsucker, local machine
[19:10] <BiohazardSteven> But it doesn't sound so great....
[19:10] <felixzilla> hi guys
[19:10] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja_, ke1ha, I set my local Ip to the same as the computer I'm on while using bridged connection...No Dice
[19:10] <felixzilla> am very new to ubuntu
[19:10] <kaellan> how to terminate "compiz"?
[19:10] <felixzilla> but been developing software for window
[19:10] <thunsucker> pr0ton: sounds like a connection problem, what type of internet does the remote side have?
[19:10] <Pici> kaellan: replace it with some other window manager.  like: metacity --replace
[19:10] <pr0ton> thunsucker, it's webfaction... my ISP
[19:11] <pr0ton> um, i mean, hosting provider
[19:11] <pr0ton> not ISP
[19:11] <kaellan> pici: that will make me able to play games witout the gfx buggs ?
[19:11] <ke1ha> TYDIRocks: well you can do that, as that's an IP conflict.
[19:11] <kv102t> rehan: yeh, thats what i got.
[19:11] <thunsucker> pr0ton: what ssh client are you using, terminal?
[19:11] <Pici> kaellan: If you install fusion-icon it will make it easier to switch between metacity and compiz.
[19:11] <pr0ton> thunsucker, yeah, terminal
[19:11] <Rehan> kv102t: know of any way I can move my ubuntu off my hard drive, then install YUMI on the drive and move it back on and have it selectable by YUMI?
[19:11] <kaellan> pici: pls help me instal meta and that icon :)
[19:12] <TYDIRocks> ke1ha, okay I changed it to a different one and still doesn't work
[19:12] <kv102t> rehan: also, I got a windows7 installer from USB inc ubuntu
[19:12] <pr0ton> anything better?
[19:12] <thunsucker> pr0ton: wait the remote side is a hosted server? like web hosting or something similar?
[19:12] <Pici> kaellan: sudo apt-get install fusion-icon, and then alt-f2 fusion-icon
[19:12] <TYDIRocks> ke1ha, I can actually ping <IP_ADDRESS>, should I test with another IP/
[19:12] <thunsucker> pr0ton: sounds like they might be throttling your bandwidth, edit the files locally and then upload, problem goes away with that method
[19:12] <ke1ha> TYDIRocks: Im gonna go look at my Vbox server and see what I got going on there. This is a standard Ubuntu Desktop, with a VBox desktiop installed?
[19:12] <Rehan> kv102t: link?
[19:12] <pr0ton> thunsucker, that may not be a productive option soon :(
[19:12] <jtran> i'm running ubuntu 11.04 and running an app using python2.6.  I need to install python-libvirt , yet the only one i see avail in apt is for python2.7.  what can i do to install the one for python2.6
[19:13] <TYDIRocks> ke1ha, what's a vbox desktop? I'm running VMWare Workstation
[19:13] <thunsucker> pr0ton: it's the only option i have with my website, ftp access. i edit locally and then tell filezilla to sync
[19:13] <NixNinja__> TYDIRocks, ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[19:13] <kv102t> rehan: No, sorry but i would have thought a backup / restore app might do it. As linux us all file based.. kinda.
[19:13] <kv102t> rehan: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/10/create-bootable-windows-7-usb-drive.html
[19:14] <TYDIRocks> Nix_Ninja__, Alright I can ping that. Now it seems I just can't use domain names in firefox
[19:14] <NixNinja__> okay just need to setup dns
[19:14] <kv102t> rehan: Hang, i have another link to do with the two OS on one..
[19:14] <thunsucker> pr0ton: call your isp to see if they are throttling your bandwidth or if qos is killing it
[19:14] <ke1ha> TYDIRocks: ok, that's thr first things I'd get rigd of, but that's another story. Vbox = AKA Virtual Box Setup, sri for the slang. NixNinja__ asked about pingin <IP_ADDRESS> did that resolve properly?
[19:14] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__, Okay, how do I do that?
[19:14] <Rehan> kv102t: thanks
[19:14] <TYDIRocks> ke1ha, yes it did
[19:15] <NixNinja__> TYDIRocks, same place you set the ip address is a box for DNS
[19:15] <kaellan> thx pici: now dragon age works :D
[19:16] <Pici> kaellan: yay!
[19:16] <NixNinja__> put in <IP_ADDRESS> for the dns server
[19:16] <kv102t> rehan: I can't find that other link now.  I'll keep looking, sorry.. But the one i gave you was the better one I think.
[19:16] <ke1ha> I'd use OpenDNS servers, just a thought.
[19:16] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__, Okay I did that
[19:16] <Rehan> kv102t: hmm, that link shows how to make a bootable USB with Win7 on it, but it requires formatting. I'm hoping there's a way I can keep my current ubuntu install but add the ability to boot to Win7 ISO also
[19:16] <NixNinja__> now use firefox
[19:17] <kv102t> rehan: use gparted to split partition and then format the new one, etc...
[19:17] <thunsucker> Rehan: you could use gparted to resize the ubuntu partition
[19:17] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__, I can't go to google. I'm using Comcast by the way, if it matters at all.
[19:18] <ke1ha> TYDIRocks: ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[19:18] <NixNinja__> TYDIRocks, it doesn't but you can use your router for the dns server too if you want try pinging google.com
[19:18] <kv102t> old OS on USB stick would still remain. -- WARNING, not sure about the MBR so make sure your happy before you start
[19:18] <Rehan> thunsucker, kv102t, thanks. I know how to do that step so this is a good sign! :P So after resizing the partition, how would i be able to choose between the two partitions?
[19:18] <kv102t> rehan:old OS on USB stick would still remain. -- WARNING, not sure about the MBR so make sure your happy before you start
[19:18] <TYDIRocks> ke1ha, I can ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[19:19] <ke1ha> Thats Googles DNS servers.
[19:19] <NixNinja__> TYDIRocks, can you ping google.com
[19:19] <thunsucker> Rehan: normally you install win7 then linux, linux will load grub2 which will prompt you to boot to linux or win7
[19:19] <kv102t> rehan: I guess you need to edit GRUB, someone here will be able to help.
[19:19] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__, It says unkown host
[19:19] <thunsucker> Rehan: after you resize the partition, install win7 in the available space, when you boot it will only go to win7. once that works you will have to repair/reinstall grub2 so be able to boot to both, or something similiar to grub2
[19:19] <kv102t> rehan: idea!
[19:19] <ke1ha> NixNinja__: He's got a nameserver problem.
[19:20] <thunsucker> Rehan: my suggestion, start from scratch. wipe the drive, install win7 on part of it, then install linux on the rest
[19:20] <NixNinja__> yeah dns server needs to be setup
[19:20] <Rehan> thunsucker: this is all on a USB flash drive and I don't want to install Win7. I just want the ISO on there and have the ability to boot from the ISO or Ubuntu
[19:20] <NixNinja__> TYDIRocks, type in a terminal ifconfig
[19:20] <NixNinja__> tell me what it says for eth0
[19:20] <ke1ha> Hod one.
[19:20] <kv102t> rehan: I would use clonezilla or something to take a full backup image of the USB key to an image before you start, this could secure the MBR and everything..
[19:20] <ke1ha> TYDIRocks: point your browser at: http://<IP_ADDRESS>
[19:20] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__Which part?
[19:20] <kv102t> rehan: do you know of clonezilla?
[19:20] <thunsucker> Rehan: when you boot from a win7 iso it will start the "windows installer" it won't be a live cd like ubuntu
[19:21] <NixNinja__> dns server for ehto
[19:21] <TYDIRocks> ke1ha, I'm going to try what Nixninja wants me to do first
[19:21] <bjpenn> NixNinja__, i actually did apt-get install sendmail, but theres no such package, it says  sendmail : Depends: sendmail-bin but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages
[19:21] <abstrakt> my samba no work with security :(
[19:21] <abstrakt> these docs are kind of out dated it seems
[19:21] <Rehan> thunsucker: yea, I don't want a live cd. just want the ability to install from it
[19:21] <urlin2u> Rehan, if it is a legit W7 ISO it is not a live environment but a install media, it also does not matter what order installed in.
[19:21] <ke1ha> Ok, well that IP addy, is google.com .. so you cna test both ways, IP and Resolved Name aka - google.com
[19:21] <NixNinja__> TYDIRocks, never mind its not there I forgot
[19:21] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__, maybe I'm blind, but I don't see anything about a DNS.
[19:21] <Guest77520> i'm on a win7 boot in a ubuntu virtual box.  anyway to speed it up?
[19:21] <Rehan> kv102t: i can figure out clonezinlla. i have used 'dd' before too
[19:22] <abstrakt> https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/samba-fileprint-security.html
[19:22] <abstrakt> can anyone help me just get a basic username/password logon working?
[19:22] <NixNinja__> TYDIRocks,  do this sudo /etc/init.d/network restart
[19:22] <thunsucker> Rehan: as far as I know, you can't have a single usb stick that can boot and have the option to install win7 or ubuntu
[19:22] <NixNinja__> then try pinging google.com again
[19:22] <bweazy> abstrakt, have you seen codeigniter?
[19:23] <Rehan> thunsucker: it won't boot windows, only install windows. it will only boot ubuntu.
[19:23] <Rehan> thunsucker: if that makes any sense lol
[19:23] <kv102t> rehan: yeh, same kinda thing. Bootable and GUI.  I would do that. after that do the step on that link, then you could restore your current ubuntu partition to the device and then work on the MBR/Grub.
[19:23] <urlin2u> thunsucker, Rehan there are many multiple boot usb thumnb apps
[19:23] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja, it says /etc/init.d/network: command not found
[19:23] <thunsucker> urlin2u: have the name of one?
[19:23] <jtran> i'm running ubuntu 11.04 and running an app using python2.6.  I need to install python-libvirt , yet the only one i see avail in apt is for python2.7.  what can i do to install the one for python2.6
[19:23] <urlin2u> thunsucker, yeah hold on
[19:23] <NixNinja__> sudo ./etc/init.d/network restart
[19:24] <thunsucker> urlin2u: read what Rehan put, he wants to the option to boot ubuntu or install win7
[19:24] <ke1ha> not ./etc just /etc
[19:24] <abstrakt> srsly tho, what do I have to do?
[19:24] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__, It still says command not found
[19:24] <Pici> TYDIRocks: its networking, not network.
[19:24] <abstrakt> i'm using the proper username and password, I can ssh with them
[19:24] <kv102t> rehan: If you do use clonezilla I would backup the partitions and then backup the hole USB drive. (hole: for a dull restore, Partitions: so you can just restore one off partitions)
[19:24] <abstrakt> the shares show up in windows
[19:24] <TYDIRocks> Pici, oh
[19:24] <urlin2u> thunsucker, yes I read the iso is not a live cd   http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&u=http://liveusb.info/dotclear/&ei=0X1FTsarDqHjiAKWrt3fAQ&sa=X&oi=translate&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CF8Q7gEwAA&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dmultisystem%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DG%26site%3Dwebhp%26prmd%3Divns
[19:24] <Rehan> kv102t: ok so i make a complete image of my usb drive right now with ubuntu on it. Then I format the drive and make a Win7 install on the usb, and then I resize that partiton and somehow move my Ubuntu back?
[19:25] <ke1ha> NixNinja__: Also isn't it /etc/init.d/networking restart
[19:25] <NixNinja__> yeah my bad :)
[19:25] <abstrakt> i can get to them if i have user.group of nobody.nogroup but I can't do a normal user login
[19:25] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__, Okay I did that and it still says unkown host google.com
[19:25] <abstrakt> i thought that security = user was supposed to use the regular /etc/passwd and /etc/group files
[19:25] <urlin2u> Rehan, you will not have luck with a thumb and window 7 install not designed for it and will break.
[19:25] <abstrakt> I installed the pam module as instructed
[19:25] <NixNinja__> in windows what does it say your dns settings are
[19:26] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__, where can I find that?
[19:26] <thunsucker> Rehan: not for what you want, here is the link urlin2u found, it will be your best bet to get what you want working: http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&u=http://liveusb.info/dotclear/&ei=0X1FTsarDqHjiAKWrt3fAQ&sa=X&oi=translate&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CF8Q7gEwAA&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dmultisystem%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DG%26site%3Dwebhp%26prmd%3Divns
[19:26] <NixNinja__> TYDIRocks, ipconfig /all
[19:26] <Rehan> urlin2u: are you saying that i can't install win7 from a thumb drive?
[19:26] <bjpenn> NixNinja__, i actually did apt-get install sendmail, but theres no such package, it says  sendmail : Depends: sendmail-bin but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages
[19:26] <NixNinja__> I think its called name servers
[19:26] <thunsucker> Rehan: http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&u=http://liveusb.info/dotclear/&ei=0X1FTsarDqHjiAKWrt3fAQ&sa=X&oi=translate&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CF8Q7gEwAA&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dmultisystem%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DG%26site%3Dwebhp%26prmd%3Divns
[19:26] <Tyrant> I installed drivers for my Linksys AE1000 USB wireless card on 11.04 but now the wireless manager crashes and any ifconfig command takes a long time to execute
[19:26] <NixNinja__> bjpenn, google installing sendmail on ubuntu
[19:27] <TYDIRocks> NixNinja__, it says <IP_ADDRESS>
[19:27] <thunsucker> Rehan: there is no way to have a usb stick that has the options to boot a regular install of ubuntu or a win7 install
[19:27] <DrManhattan> so whats the future of the ubuntu GUI going to be anyhow?
[19:27] <urlin2u> Rehan, from it yes to it yes but u=it will break, MS has it setup to not run a external thumb, or at least thats the generak consensus.
[19:27] <ubi> my ubuntu freezes on reboot
[19:27] <guntbert> abstrakt: in my view http://opensuse.swerdna.org/susesambacifs.html is a pretty complete collection of how-to-samba
[19:27] <thunsucker> Rehan: however you can have a usb stick that can be a ubuntu live cd or a win7 install
[19:27] <DrManhattan> is ubuntu going to be sticking with the whole "unity" setup?
[19:27] <urlin2u> Rehan, the install to a thumb will not be stable.
[19:27] <kv102t> rehan: I would do the two backups.. Then use gparted to make the partition for windows. then use link to fill partition with Windows 7 install... Then work on MBR/Grub.
[19:27] <ke1ha> DrManhattan: Ubnutu GUI, you man Desktop?
[19:27] <abstrakt> http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/ServerType.html#id2559276 is really vague and unhelpful :(
[19:27] <ke1ha> .. you mean Desktop ?
[19:27] <DrManhattan> ke1ha, yes, you're aware of what a GUI is?
[19:28] <thunsucker> DrManhattan: we are, but it's obvious you haven't found google
[19:28] <ubi> it is on compaq nx 8220
[19:28] <ke1ha> DrManhattan: Fully aware, yes sir, Um Unity is the future of Ubuntu Desktop.
[19:28] <urlin2u> Rehan, a beautiful dream but not a stable idea W7 on a thumb installed.
[19:28] <Rehan> kv102t: two backups? wouldn't i just make one backup of my usb drive right now?
[19:28] <DrManhattan> ke1ha, k, thanks. Wasn't so hard to just say yes, was it?
[19:28] <Rehan> urlin2u: i'm not trying to have W7 installed on a thumb. I don't think you understand what I'm trying to do lol
