[06:09] <dc5ala> kingmilo, that looks really odd, have you tried other QT based software?
[06:09] <Northernen> vanquish349, from terminal.
[06:09] <maum> x64: no I have only one graphic card
[06:09] <lolcat> x64: that looks nothing like a sha256 hash at least
[06:09] <kingmilo> dc5ala: Nope i haven’t yet, it's a 'production' environment so i try and fiddle as little as possible.. .
[06:09] <x64> maum, do a sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[06:10] <x64> then run a  sudo nvidia-xconfig
[06:10] <truepurple> Does it matter if ubuntus partition is closer to the center of the disk? Does it matter at all whether its one of many logistical drives, or a primary?
[06:10] <rww> truepurple: no and no
[06:10] <maum> x64: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[06:10] <maum> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[06:10] <vanquish349> Northernen: i know, i am not that much of a noob(just a little bit)
[06:11] <x64> Maum, close the hardware driver/ubuntu software center then try it
[06:11] <Northernen> vanquish349, no offense intented.
[06:11] <maum> x64: there is same error
[06:11] <vanquish349> lol
[06:11] <x64> Do you currently having something installing Maum?
[06:11] <maum> x64: now it's working and done
[06:11] <Northernen> I learn something new about Linux every day, but I feel like I'm getting more and more stupid. I still haven't learned to interpret fdisk output.
[06:12] <maum> x64: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 6 not upgraded.
[06:12] <maum> x64: nvidia-current is already the newest version.
[06:12] <Juozas> maum, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, do it :)
[06:12] <x64> K now run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[06:12] <maum> x64: but I want to reinstall the graphic card
[06:13] <x64> then go to hardware drivers -> deactivate (bottom left) then "activate" it again.
[06:13] <maum> Juozas, not it's done
[06:13] <maum> Juozas, now
[06:13] <x64> bottom right*
[06:13] <x64> choose remove
[06:14] <maum> x64; there s additional drivers menu
[06:14] <x64> Yes, no activate it again and you've reinstalled it.
[06:15] <x64> now*
[06:15] <vanquish349> i also have another problem, a while back i was trying to install bashish, i found a link on the net and installed it, and it wasnt what i wanted so i unistalled it and installed the proper one but know when ever i open terminal i get this error /home/jeremy/.bashish/prompt/theme: line 9: _bashish_theme_defaults_cp437font: command not found
[06:15] <vanquish349> terminator*
[06:15] <vanquish349> havent tried terminal yet
[06:15] <maum> x64; how to activate?
[06:15] <vanquish349> yep same error with terminal
[06:15] <x64> System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers -> Choose the driver and press "activate" at the bottom right.
[06:15] <maum> x64: no proprietary drivers are in use on this system
[06:16] <x64> Do that maum.
[06:16] <dc5ala> kingmilo, maybe something with QT themes, but have no real idea =/
[06:16] <kingmilo> dc5ala: no problem boss thanks for looking
[06:16] <maum> x64 there is noadministration menu
[06:16] <truepurple> Will I get better performance from linux if it is closer to the center of the HDD disk?
[06:16] <maum> x64 there is no administration menu
[06:16] <rww> truepurple: no
[06:16] <x64> Maum, are you using 11.04?
[06:16] <maum> yes
[06:16] <Juozas> maum, if you got nvidia driver installed, did you reboot?
[06:17] <maum> yes
[06:17] <x64> Maum, go to unity and search "drivers"
[06:17] <truepurple> rww: from what experience/knowledge base do you speak from?  I asked you this in PM, but you never answered
[06:17] <maum> there is only one menu(additional drivers
[06:17] <maum> )
[06:18] <x64> That's fine, click that.
[06:18] <x64> And then select install drivers from the drop down.
[06:18] <rww> truepurple: I don't do support in PM or accept PMs from random people.

[06:19] <truepurple> rww: Ok, then please answer here then
[06:19] <truepurple> rww: from what experience/knowledge base do you speak from?

[06:20] <rww> truepurple: Standard computer usage is not sensitive enough to hard disk seek times that the small difference in seek times based on disk area matter.
[06:21] <maum> x64: how can I reinstall the nvidia driver?
[06:21] <rww> truepurple: In fact, the time you've spent asking this question here and elsewhere is probably larger than the total amount of time you would save from putting Linux at the end of your disk from now until your computer dies.
[06:21] <Pin> Guys im in ubuntu 11.04 , my monitor is currently in 1024x768 but i need it to go higher than that, Im in the monitors section but it only goes up to 1024x768. What do i do toget it higher even tho it doesnt apear on the list?

[06:21] <rww> heck, s/probably //

[06:26] <Pin> what do i type first
[06:26] <Northernen> Pin, type "vtc 1280 1024".
[06:26] <Juozas> on some forum i read that you need to uninstall all with synaptic then reinstall from commandline, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1433955

The LiveCD version of 10.10 gives me a wired internet connection, but upon initial boot of the installed version of 10.10, I get an error message saying my wired connection has been disconnected,
[06:27] <kingmilo> dc5ala: Ok interesting, for Qt based packages only i presume.

[06:29] <flametai1> Unsure if this is the proper place to ask, but anyone know any cool FPS's for Ubuntu other than just Quake engine mods??????????? I'm looking for something realistic.

[06:32] <bazhang> truepurple, lets take this elsewhere please. #ubuntu-ops
[06:32] <maum> Juozas: I uninstalled only nvidia-current and reinstalling sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[06:32] <bazhang> ka1gdq, wine was installed by default?
[06:32] <glebihan> ka1gdq, as told in the message, you have to make the file executable before using it in wine
[06:33] <snuxoll> ka1gdq: you'll need to make the file executable before wine will load it
[06:33] <snuxoll> ka1gdq: right click the file in nautilus, click properties, permissions tab, check the box to make the file executable
[06:33] <flametai1> No one at all eh?
[06:34] <ka1gdq> ok.. i am half asleep... let me run it again after I make it an executable

[06:35] <Northernen> I can't type.

[06:35] <flametai1> snuxoll, I've never been a big fan of the quake engine unfortunately =| I feel like the gravity and traction stuff is off and more of like you're sliding than walking.
[06:35] <Pin> ok done now what
[06:35] <kingmilo> dc5ala: Didnt seem to make a difference however i did something I should have done in the beginning, launched skype from the command line and it spat out quite a few errors about not finding pixmap files etc, will investigate there
[06:35] <Pin> northernen
[06:35] <TBotNik> All: Well have done several things, but nothing fixing the nameserver part yet.  The best HOWTO on this so far has been the one at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing and wondering if I should be starting at and implementing the sections at/under "Gateway Set up".  In particular the NAT and IPTables sections.  What do you guys think?
[06:36] <Northernen> Pin, what's the output?
[06:36] <Pin> what do you mean'
[06:36] <snuxoll> flametai1: I agree to an extent, I'd really like TF2 to come to linux, until then I just dual-boot for games
[06:36] <kingmilo> dc5ala: acroread complains about the same stuff, smoke !

[06:46] <kingmilo> glebihan: That theme package is already installed, but there are some other gnome-theme packages that arent, might be wort installing them as I am not sure where the error will pickup the missing files from.. .
[06:47] <Northernen> Pin, the resolution and refresh rate is in one word within quotes, if I'm not mistaken.
[06:47] <irrumator> glebihan: yes, says it's not there

[06:58] <farsight> hello
[06:58] <farsight> ?????
[06:59] <Pin> this is pissing me off
[06:59] <bazhang> farsight, hello
[06:59] <kingmilo> glebihan: no luck, giving up on it for now, not handicapping my users so will move it down the priority list, thanks for your input as well as dc5ala
[07:00] <TBotNik> All: K back now I can ping from the U-Box.  I get the IPs on net at Win-Box, but can not ping from there.  Still needing the nameserver info to passthru, so all help appreciated.  Thanks!
[07:00] <Pin> that screenshot is old, but the error is the same
[07:00] <Lupinthe3rd> Hello. I have a networking problem. Ethernet works on 10.10 LiveCD, not on the installed Ubuntu. Tried a few things I saw online with no luck. Any tips?
[07:00] <Northernen> Pin, are you sure your monitor supports 1280x1024?
[07:01] <Pin> yes! It was working fine, for more than 2 months, until i messed with compiz
[07:01] <Northernen> Pin, sudo hwinfo | grep framebuffer
[07:01] <Pin> then when i reboot i got that compiz error today
[07:01] <Pin> sudo: hwinfo: command not found
[07:01] <Northernen> Pin, sudo apt-get install hwinfo
[07:02] <thegoodcushion> Which version of Ubuntu 11.04 do I want for my netbook?  Is there a separate netbook edition?
[07:02] <maum> I see this : Could not apply stored configuration for monitors and No proprietary drivers are in use on this system do you have any idea about this?
[07:02] <sandwichbars> @thegoodcushion: not that i know of...
[07:02] <rww> thegoodcushion: no, there isn't a separate netbook edition. Just get regular Ubuntu.
[07:03] <bazhang> !une | thegoodcushion
[07:03] <Northernen> Pin, rebooting won't affect screen resolution anyway.
[07:03] <thegoodcushion> and for LTS, is it Ubuntu Netbook Remix 10.04 ?
[07:05] <sandwichbars> @thegoodcushion: ...pardon?
[07:06] <thegoodcushion> for long term support on a netbook, is it that version that I want?  The "Netbook Remix" ?
[07:06] <ejo> I had to get rid of Unity, it just randomly blows up once in a while and has to repaint all windows, some of which lose their positions.  I hope they're working on that little problem.  Or maybe it's ATI's proprietary driver.  But realistically almost everyone is going to use that driver if they are running several monitors on a Radeon HD card.
[07:07] <Northernen> ejo, I hate fglrx :(
[07:07] <ejo> Yeah, i don't like fglrx much either :|
[07:07] <Northernen> ejo, I've had to reinstall 5 ish times because of it.
[07:07] <jailbreak3r> Finished setting up 11.04 and setting up ndiswrapper (huge PIA) :P
[07:08] <ejo> it doesn't play too well with Xinerama.  Or maybe it's just that Xinerama doesn't know how to run widescreen monitors rotated vertically very well.
[07:08] <jailbreak3r> Now my print drivers don't work...
[07:08] <jailbreak3r> ;(
[07:08] <Pin> im going to reinstall ubuntu
[07:08] <maum> I see this : Could not apply stored configuration for monitors and No proprietary drivers are in use on this system do you have any idea about this?
[07:08] <ejo> Northernen: good grief, you had to reinstall your whole OS because of it?  Seems like a bit overboard
[07:08] <Pin> im too mad
[07:08] <Pin> im saving my files
[07:08] <maum> Pin: calm down
[07:08] <Northernen> ejo, can't boot. Boots into black screen. Can't enter recovery mode.
[07:09] <ejo> wow
[07:09] <ejo> no fun
[07:09] <Northernen> ejo, I'm on Windows7 because of it :(
[07:09] <Pin> its late and i have to work in the morning and i need to be able to see what im doing
[07:09] <ejo> ugh
[07:09] <ejo> That's pretty much Windows' only advantage now, the millions of hours of graphics driver testing
[07:10] <ejo> or really, billions
[07:10] <Pin> with as much as i lvoe ubuntu i might have to reinstall win7
[07:10] <Pin> because i have to work in the morning
[07:10] <Northernen> ejo, indeed. This will be the last ATI card I am ever buying until they sort out their Linux support. Granted it came with my Acer laptop, but I'm not paying any companies any more with this sort of attitude.
[07:10] <ejo> It would be amazing if either the open source ATI driver would catch up or ATI would release a true Radeon driver instead of a Fire GL driver recycled for radeons.
[07:11] <farsight> 有人说中文吗？
[07:11] <wildbat> !cn
[07:11] <ejo> Northernen: well, good luck getting any major video card maker to do good Linux support; where's the reward for them?
[07:11] <Pin> unless someone know hows to stop compiz from messing up my resolutions
[07:11] <ejo> Pin, set up a dual boot when you get the chance.
[07:11] <Northernen> ejo, at least nVidia is better than ATI.
[07:11] <Pin> i do have a dual boot
[07:12] <ejo> oh yeah?  haven't checked lately North
[07:12] <ejo> Pin: then why the reinstall
[07:12] <Autodidactite> Northernen, How so?
[07:12] <Northernen> ejo, that's what I hear at least. It certainly can't be worse than ATI's efforts.
[07:12] <Northernen> Autodidactite, fglrx is not working at all.
[07:13] <ejo> I think of NVidia as being even more dependent on gamers, which means 99.9% Windows users
[07:13] <ejo> Northernen: how new is your monitor(s)?
[07:13] <ejo> and card
[07:13] <ejo> 'cause it's working fine for me on 2006-07ish stuff
[07:13] <Autodidactite> fglrx is working quite okay here
[07:13] <quick-> how to install ccsm ?
[07:13] <ejo> But I remember trying to get with Ubuntu in 2008 on same exact hardware and gave up, too much trouble getting any video at all
[07:13] <farsight> who can speak Chinese
[07:13] <Northernen> ejo, Acer aspire 5820 tg. Mobility radeon 5650.  Northerner just helped me put my resolutions back with xrandr, when i rebooted, compiz gave me this error http://i.imgur.com/b7bWY.png
[07:14] <Northernen> Autodidactite, it's not here at all.
[07:14] <quick-> how to install ccsm ?
[07:14] <farsight> #ubuntu-cn
[07:14] <Autodidactite> It was a bit rough lately but seems all good for me now
[07:14] <ejo> Pin, have you tried just Gnome w/o Unity?
[07:14] <Pin> along with that error , it whiped out all the resolutions we had added!!!!!
[07:14] <Pin> yes, Im on ubuntu classic
[07:14] <Pin> same thing
[07:14] <ejo> oh good
[07:14] <ejo> hm
[07:14] <Autodidactite> Oh really, what chip Northernen?
[07:14] <Northernen> Pin, reboots wipes the resolutios you've added.
[07:15] <Pin> no it shouldnt northernen
[07:15] <Pin> but thats whats happening
[07:15] <Northernen> Pin, it does. Need to put it in a script or something.
[07:15] <Northernen> Autodidactite, graphics?
[07:16] <Pin> then what are we waiting for
[07:16] <Pin> what do we do
[07:16] <Autodidactite> Yes Northernen GPU
[07:16] <Pin> I need to get this fixed or erase my system one or the other
[07:16] <Northernen> Autodidactite, ATI Mobility Radeon HD5650. It is supposed to be fully supported.
[07:16] <Autodidactite> It sooo sucks that they wont open source these main GPU drivers
[07:17] <Northernen> Pin, what is wrong with the alignment?
[07:17] <the_misfit> doesn't Autodidactite use fglrx for that driver?
[07:17] <goer_> I hv 4 cd burners going. They all hv same name :( How to rename cd drives pls?
[07:18] <wols> goer_: what do you mean have the same name?
[07:19] <maum> I cannot hear music on ubuntu 11.04
[07:19] <goer_> In gnomebaker (4 simultaneous sessions) they all sjow up with same name cos that is what they are called of course as they are a;; Sony drives. But how to differentiate them in Gnomebaker?
[07:19] <bazhang> maum, did you install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package , or did you mean the speaker output
[07:20] <Autodidactite> lspci -nn | grep VGA
[07:20] <Northernen> Autodidactite, did you use "Additional drivers" or download from amd.com and run in manually?
[07:20] <Autodidactite> Oops
[07:20] <Autodidactite> lol
[07:20] <maum> bazhang, I cannot listen any music or sound on ubuntu 11.04
[07:20] <Autodidactite> Wrong window
[07:21] <Northernen> Autodidactite, heh, not the first one to do that.
[07:21] <bazhang> maum, did you install that package? also check alsamixer in terminal and make sure nothing is muted
[07:21] <maum> bazhang, unmuted and how can I check alsamixer?
[07:22] <maum> bazhang, and what package?
[07:22] <goer_> wols: so do u know?
[07:22] <bazhang> maum, open a terminal. type alsamixer . ubuntu-restricted-extras <------ that package
[07:23] <Autodidactite> Nope. Northernen, I just install the driver from the restricted driver applet that pops up in Ubuntu 11.04
[07:23] <Autodidactite> But I did run all the updates first
[07:24] <maum> bazhang, Chip: Realtek ALC272
[07:24] <Northernen> Autodidactite, which GPU do you have?
[07:24] <maum> bazhang, I can see some screen when I typed AlsaMaxer
[07:24] <bazhang> maum, did you install that package, yes or no
[07:24] <bazhang> maum, make sure nothing is set to mute
[07:24] <maum> bazhang, I just installed it
[07:25] <Autodidactite> The first time I run 11.04 I installed the proprietary driver first before all the updates and things didn't go so good
[07:25] <maum> bazhang, I still cannot listen music

[07:29] <TBotNik> All: UPDATE: Getting IPs on this remote network but can not ping any names like "www.google.com" from the network machines, but can ping googles address of <IP_ADDRESS>, so know it is a nameserver problem
[07:29] <Northernen> Autodidactite, not sure why it would work with you, and not with me. You've got an older GPU than I have, and the entire Mobility series were supposed to have been supported from what I believe.
[07:30] <[snake]> apache2s .htaccess file location?
[07:31] <Autodidactite> Something is afoot! what brand OEM lappy is yours in Northernen?
[07:31] <Northernen> Autodidactite, Acer. Wouldn't have bought it if I had a second chance.
[07:33] <Autodidactite> Acer is okay
[07:33] <Autodidactite> What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[07:33] <Northernen> Autodidactite, 11.04. I hate Acer.
[07:34] <ghostnik11> hi i want to do basically take a chmod command/permission off of an executable file that i got off internet but don't know how, i ran this command to allow it to be executable: chmod 777 VU-InstanTempo.linux
[07:35] <Northernen> ghostnik11, which permissions do you want to remove?
[07:35] <Autodidactite> And it is a clean install not an upgrade?
[07:35] <Autodidactite> Northernen
[07:35] <Northernen> Autodidactite, clean.
[07:35] <Autodidactite> Cool
[07:36] <farsight_> sdfgsd
[07:36] <ghostnik11> chmod for this file named vu-instanTempo.linux, northernen
[07:36] <Northernen> ghostnik11, if you don't want to be executable: chmod -x file.fileextension
[07:36] <bazhang> !cn | farsight_
[07:36] <Autodidactite> And you have ran all the updates before installing the closed sourced driver
[07:36] <ghostnik11> northernen, so if i run that command the file won't be executable correct?
[07:36] <Northernen> Autodidactite, can't even boot now. Not even with nomodeset.
[07:37] <Northernen> ghostnik11, yup.
[07:37] <farsight_> helllo
[07:37] <ghostnik11> northernen, cool thanks will run now and see
[07:37] <Northernen> ghostnik11, might need to be root to run it, not sure of its permissions.
[07:37] <Northernen> ghostnik11, list a file's permissions with ls -l.
[07:38] <maum> I cannot hear sound on ubuntu
[07:38] <Autodidactite> can you go into recovery mode at grub and run the x config or start Ubuntu in safe graphics mode?
[07:38] <Northernen> Autodidactite, nope. It stalls when trying to enter recovery mode.
[07:39] <[snake]> where is the apache2 .htaccess file?
[07:39] <Northernen> Autodidactite, I know it has something to do with the xorg.conf file.
[07:39] <ghostnik11> northernen: this is what i got when i ls -l to see permission: -rwxrwxrwx 1 nikolai nikolai<PHONE_NUMBER>-07-23 19:23 VU-InstanTempo.linux
[07:39] <Northernen> [snake], it's not _a_ file. You create .htaccess files when you want to restrict access to a site.
[07:39] <ghostnik11> northernen, can i still run command chmod -x file.fileextension
[07:40] <[snake]> hm
[07:40] <[snake]> i see
[07:40] <Northernen> ghostnik11, yes, run that command, and all those X's will disappear, which signalises it's an executable file.
[07:40] <Northernen> ghostnik11, no X's = not executable.
[07:40] <[snake]> someone else told me it showed those who accessed your webserver??? hmm
[07:41] <Autodidactite> Well that sucks ( I know, I am captain obvious) if you still have your install medium about you can live boot and attempt to fix or just wipe it and reinstall
[07:41] <Northernen> [snake], it does do that, but you create it yourself.
[07:41] <[snake]> ok
[07:41] <[snake]> Thanks
[07:41] <dc5ala> snake, that is access.log
[07:42] <Autodidactite> Did you do all the updates before installing the closed sourced driver Northernen
[07:42] <Autodidactite> ?
[07:42] <Northernen> Autodidactite, /salute :>, can I edit xorg.conf with live CD? I thought it was just data I was allowed to edit?
[07:42] <Northernen> Autodidactite, aye, believe so.
[07:43] <Autodidactite> Oh yes you very much can edit any file on an install from a live boot
[07:43] <ghostnik11> northernen: worked a charm, thanks bro, this is what i get now when i run the ls -l to check permission of file: -rw-rw-rw- 1 nikolai nikolai<PHONE_NUMBER>-07-23 19:23 VU-InstanTempo.linux
[07:43] <ghostnik11> northernen: thanks again for help
[07:43] <Northernen> ghostnik11, no worries. Now it's executable by anyone.
[07:44] <stephenthemartyr> how do you get rid of jackdbus and revert back to jackd1?
[07:44] <sweet> my pc is not dectecting any input voice what is the problem ? just iam using ubntu 10.04?
[07:45] <Northernen> Autodidactite, pardon my ignorane, didn't think it was possible to edit system settings. I suppose I'll have to resort to using open source drivers.
[07:45] <Northernen> ghostnik11, +not.
[07:45] <dc5ala> sweet: open audio settings via speaker icon and look for input there
[07:46] <ghostnik11> northernen: figured thats what u meant
[07:46] <hi> 하이~
[07:46] <stephenthemartyr> anyone know about jackaudio?
[07:47] <Autodidactite> Yes you could do this and then do second install of Ubuntu dual boot and then experiment in the other one and if things go wrong for some reason you can fix it from the other insatll
[07:47] <MilRoy> Hi
[07:48] <stephenthemartyr> join opensourcemusicians
[07:48] <sweet> dc5ala: even i was try to correct in  system>preference>sound>input>then unmute but still it doesnot work?
[07:49] <stephenthemartyr> whoops i didnt mean to type that
[07:50] <dc5ala> sweet: in the input settings there is a level indicator, is that working and is there any input device listed?
[07:52] <Northernen> Autodidactite, already dual-booting W7. Been thinking I might set up a vmware Linux for testing.
[07:52] <dtmf> how do you get root? it wont let me change or set a password
[07:53] <Northernen> dtmf, what do you need to do?
[07:53] <dtmf> make changes in files in /etc
[07:53] <dtmf> secure my box
[07:53] <Northernen> dtmf, you get root access with saying 'sudo' before your command.
[07:53] <dtmf> k, thanx
[07:53] <dimas_> my closing minimazing and expanding menu for any window just dissapear how can i get it back?
[07:54] <MilRoy> HI, Im new to Ubuntu and on Ubuntu 11.04. I want to know how to set environment variables
[07:54] <dtmf> set env
[07:54] <stephenthemartyr> can anyone help me revert back to jackd and get rid of jackdbus?
[07:54] <sweet> dc5ala: just in the input level there is no indicator,in the connector it says microphone1,under choose advice for sound input=internal audio analog stereo
[07:54] <Autodidactite> Yes you could do Northernen but the install inside of you virtual environment would not be touching your hardware.
[07:55] <csdwifi> why is synchronize grayed out in one of my remote share folders (i'm accessing through client folder browser)
[07:55] <Northernen> Valid pont, Autodidactite , but I am soo over fglrx now.
[07:55] <csdwifi> for ubuntu One
[07:56] <bazhang> csdwifi, perhaps try in #ubuntuone as well
[07:56] <csdwifi> thanks bazhang
[07:56] <MilRoy> HI, Im new to Ubuntu and on Ubuntu 11.04. I want to know how to set environment variables
[07:56] <dc5ala> sweet: are you using a usb headset or just normal microphone plugged into microphone input of your soundcard?
[07:56] <TBotNik> All: Re-ran my config capture script and posted in PB at: http://pastebin.com/yC9fcguh
[07:58] <necavi> Hello, I recently decided to update my little ubuntu box from 10.04 to at least 10.10, but unfortunately about halfway through the machine crashed, and now whenever I attempt to boot into ubuntu it shows a startup screen I have never seen before (but still marked as 10.04) and freeze. I have also tried using an 11.04 live install, but whenever I attempt to boot from that it simply says aufs
[07:58] <necavi> mount failed. Any chance someone could help me get started on fixing this? I have but a few files and mainly logs that actually need to be kept (one of the main reasons for trying the live install). Thank you.
[07:58] <maum> please
[07:58] <maum> help me
[07:59] <maum> I cannot hear music on ubuntu 11.04
[07:59] <[snake]> maum, ok
[07:59] <Untouchab1e> question. I have a windows NFS share, but when I create a directory on it from a linux system, the folder is inaccessible from the Windows system.. "Windows cannot access \\NFS-share\folder"..
[07:59] <[snake]> maum, I will run you through the diagnostics
[07:59] <Untouchab1e> I realize its an issue with permission, but not quite sure how to fix it=?
[07:59] <sweet> dc5ala: just normal microphone plugged into microphone  sound card
[07:59] <ikonia> necavi: use the 10.04 cd to recover the machine,  you know that works
[07:59] <maum> [snake], ok
[07:59] <[snake]> maum, first, check to see if your audio device is plugged in correctly.
[08:00] <Autodidactite> I don't blame you Northernen, it is such a petty that these things happen because people close access to there source code out of fear.
[08:00] <maum> [snake], I cannot see any device on sound preference.
[08:00] <[snake]> maum, is the hardware plugged in?
[08:00] <necavi> Wow, I feel stupid for not attempting that, I'll give it a try now!
[08:00] <maum> [snake], there is no..
[08:00] <Northernen> Untouchab1e, fairly certain you need to use samba for that.
[08:00] <maum> [snake], Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio
[08:01] <[snake]> maum, ok thanks for that. but are your speaker/headphones plugged in?
[08:01] <Untouchab1e> Northernen: unfortunately, I need to use NFS :/
[08:01] <maum> [snake], my earphone plugged in.
[08:01] <Untouchab1e> Northernen: Im thinking there must be an easy chmod command from the linux box to fix it?
[08:02] <Northernen> Untouchab1e, what
[08:02] <[snake]> maum, ok. and your intel chipser is not working. hmm. did you check the drivers in: system>administration>Hardware drivers. they may be there
[08:02] <Northernen> 's the permissions on the mount?
[08:02] <maum> [snake], I'm using 11.04 so there is no adinistration menu but additional drivers.
[08:03] <Untouchab1e> Northernen: the problem must be that the files/folders created on the Windows NFS share from the Linux box have the linux root user as owner
[08:03] <Untouchab1e> meaning no other user can access it
[08:03] <frenkel> what am I doing wrong when uploading to a ppa and launchpad sends me emails with "Could not find person or team named ''"
[08:03] <[snake]> ok. good you are in the additional drivers. are there any available?
[08:03] <Northernen> Untouchab1e, you want to change the owner of the files/directories?
[08:03] <Untouchab1e> Northernen: idk if that will fix it..
[08:03] <dc5ala> maum: what does "lsmod | grep snd" say? (http://paste.ubuntu.com please)
[08:03] <Untouchab1e> hence why Im asking
[08:04] <KGB_plague> hi all , is this the right place to ask about how to make ubuntu a gaming environment?' , forexample when using Wine , i would like to make my Ubuntu in a freeze status to dedicate all its powers and focus on the emulation , and when im out of the game , ubuntu processes the logging box forexample if i had chat messages it will be all in small bits of terminal language that has no gui at all and then presents to me normally in a gui format after the fre
[08:04] <KGB_plague> eze status is unfrozen
[08:04] <KGB_plague> does Linux have such a thing that exists... Thanks in advanced
[08:04] <Northernen> Untouchab1e, me neither, but worth a try. "chown newonwer file/directory" by the way.
[08:04] <dc5ala> sweet: can you make a screenshot of that input settings?
[08:05] <[snake]> dc5ala, this right? :  Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio
[08:05] <KGB_plague> dont tell me xfce , i use unity
[08:05] <[snake]> for muam
[08:05] <Untouchab1e> Northernen: yea, thanks, however, I have no idea what owner to set
[08:05] <maum> dc5ala, [snake], http://paste.pound-python.org/show/10039/
[08:05] <Northernen> KGB_plague, wine is not an emulator. Try in #winehq
[08:05] <KGB_plague> read my question its more dedicated to ubuntu
[08:05] <Northernen> Untouchab1e, just your own user?
[08:06] <KGB_plague> wine is a diff story i can set the memory from their i want the dedication of ubuntu to be focusing on my game ( and wine ) Northernen
[08:06] <maum> http://paste.ubuntu.com/652264/
[08:06] <Untouchab1e> Northernen: but Linux doesnt use the same access control system as Windows
[08:06] <maum> dc5ala, http://paste.ubuntu.com/652264/
[08:06] <dc5ala> snake, he was asking earlier and last thing he was trying, was to add a line to alsa config, but then haven't heard anything
[08:06] <Northernen> KGB_plague, only thing I can think of is editing the nice level.
[08:07] <[snake]> dc5ala, oh... ok. maybe you should take over ;)
[08:07] <Northernen> KGB_plague, set nice level to -19, and it should hog most resources.
[08:07] <[snake]> How can I be sure my webserver is secure?
[08:07] <KGB_plague> maum, i have sound problems its a bug also in unity if u have that not sure what ur question was but listen , just enable the inbuilt sound card then enable the PCI sound card again , do it for allt he tabs in the sound control
[08:08] <Northernen> Untouchab1e, you need to access it from Windows as well?
[08:09] <maum> KGB_plague, how can I?  I don't know
[08:09] <Untouchab1e> Northernen: thats the problem here.. I have a Windows NFS Share which works fine, but I cannot access folders created from Linux systems on the Windows box
[08:09] <Untouchab1e> Permission denied
[08:09] <[snake]> I love my webserver, and I don't want it to catch a cold out on the internet or anything. what could I do? is there any webserver security software that is free available?
[08:09] <KGB_plague> Northernen, hog resources meaning? focuses on the task that requires focus? is their an app done that can freeze everything like empathy / evolution + Ubuntu GUI + Gnome ... so it focuses on the task at full potential then when im back fromm my game , or wine , then it wakes up everything and parcels all my skype messages or empathy from the chat server to see what ive missed
[08:10] <KGB_plague> maum, ask question again plz
[08:10] <maum> KGB_plague, how can I enable the inbuilt sound card?
[08:10] <KGB_plague> ur using unity ? 11.04?
[08:10] <maum> KGB_plague, how can I enable the inbuilt sound card and enable the PCI
[08:10] <KGB_plague> thats simple , firstly i dont want to be rude have u got windows installed aswell?
[08:10] <dc5ala> snake, it's usually not the webserver itself that cause security problems, more the software you running on it
[08:10] <Northernen> KGB_plague, no such thing, but if you want a process to take priority over other processes, adjust its nice level.
[08:11] <maum> KGB_plague, yes I have
[08:11] <KGB_plague> maum, does it work on windows , have u ever re-assembled ur machine lately?
[08:11] <Northernen> Untouchab1e, I see. I don't think Windows recognises Linux permissions.
[08:11] <maum> KGB_plague, no I haven't
[08:11] <KGB_plague> maum, ok thats starters question that peopel sometimes neglect .. , go to ubuntu start , type sound
[08:11] <[snake]> dc5ala, I'm running LAMP for my server. and that's really it.
[08:11] <KGB_plague> or from the panel maum  right click preferences at sound
[08:11] <Untouchab1e> Northernen: exactly.. so there must be a way to work around this somehow
[08:12] <maum> KGB_plague, I opened the sound preference. but there is no hardware device.
[08:12] <[snake]> dc5ala, that is Linux, apache2, mysql, and php.
[08:12] <KGB_plague> Northernen, thats a great impact for the linux gamers in Linux World , if such thing exists ... it will be giving an increase of 15 - 25fps in games such as Call oF Duty Black ops or Fallout 2
[08:12] <Untouchab1e> Northernen: I wonder if my mount command for the NFS share is the issue?
[08:12] <KGB_plague> maum, have u had older ubuntu versions before this or is this ur first install of linux?
[08:13] <maum> KGB_plague, I upgraded from 10.04 to 11.04
[08:13] <KGB_plague> maum, did u have this problem at 10.04
[08:13] <maum> KGB_plague, I had no problem
[08:13] <[snake]> dc5ala, other than that I don't even run things on my server. plus I did a nessus scan and no exploits exist.
[08:13] <Northernen> Untouchab1e, might be. Should probably mount it as a user account, although not sure if that will hell.
[08:14] <KGB_plague> can u try booting 11.04 from usb and see if it can detect it ;)
[08:14] <Northernen> Untouchab1e, not _as_ as a user account, but connect it to one.
[08:14] <maum> KGB_plague, I could listen the music until yesterday
[08:14] <maum> KGB_plague, I couldn't
[08:15] <Northernen> Untouchab1e, local partition or over network?
[08:15] <KGB_plague> maum, it doesnt detect from usb? hmm , try removeing the drivers thats installed let me get u the terminal command il google that one 4 u
[08:16] <maum> KGB_plague, what do you want me to do?
[08:16] <Northernen> Untouchab1e, never mind, I can't read.
[08:16] <KGB_plague> open terminal type sudo aplay -l
[08:16] <KGB_plague> does output show ur soundcard their?
[08:17] <nicofs> When trying to install libc6 i get "dpkg: error processing libc6 (--install): subprocess installed post-installation script killed by signal (Illegal instruction)" - What can I do?
[08:17] <KGB_plague> maum, did u mess with sound before u had the problem? installing modules etc..?
[08:17] <maum> KGB_plague, http://paste.ubuntu.com/652269/
[08:18] <KGB_plague> nicofs, i had the same problem please let me know if u solved it =)
[08:18] <Kartagis> how to mirror only /dir under www.example.com?
[08:19] <ghostnik11> can anyone help me with windows going all over the place, in to other workspaces even though you didn't resize it that way
[08:19] <KGB_plague> maum, thats the sound card built in from ur motherboard , plug the input ping on ur motherboard output ( green colored or Black colored hole ) and retry ur sound if it works ..
[08:19] <ghostnik11> i am running ubuntu 11.04
[08:19] <ghostnik11> with compiz on also
[08:19] <maum> KGB_plague, I have no idea about that ... whether it was from updating or from installing module....
[08:20] <maum> KGB_plague, I don't know how to do that
[08:20] <KGB_plague> ghostnik11, ur ubuntu is installed inside windows and not in a diffrent partition.
[08:21] <KGB_plague> u see ur speakers maum  , theirs a wire thats plugged behind ur PC to output the sound of ur speakers , remove that wire of its end point and plug it on a new point which colors green or black try both , but from ur motherboard sound card which will be located beside the usb inputs
[08:22] <KGB_plague> ghostnik11, this happens when u mess up the compiz windows GUI's , and sometimes it glitches from memory loss
[08:22] <maum> KGB_plague, my desktop is integral PC
[08:22] <maum> KGB_plague, there is no main body
[08:23] <ghostnik11> kgb_plague: oh, thats why it sometimes glitches and flashes, but i didn't do anything, i think its cause of unity

[08:55] <thegoodcushion> Hi everyone. I'm trying to boot a netbook using an external USB key thingy and it's not working.  I used the pendrive creator utility.  Is there any way I can check it's 'burned' okay?  I altered my BIOS settings but the thing doesn't want to boot
[08:56] <theadmin> thegoodcushion: You should try Unetbootin and (if on Windows) LiLi USB Creator
[08:56] <Atlantic777> Ubuntu really should have some sort of fallback packages like on gentoo. Just remove world file and install again, versions which I want. :D
[08:56] <thegoodcushion> theadmin: okay.  Is the Lili thing better than the pendrive one?
[08:56] <suvish> yo people wassup...

[09:00] <Bluetegu> I'm getting hard time installing ubuntu 11.04 64bit on my T420
[09:01] <Bluetegu> First the disk partitioning failed
[09:02] <nit-wit> Bluetegu, how did you partition?
[09:02] <Bluetegu> nit-wit, used the default partitioning suggested in the installation disk
[09:03] <nit-wit> Bluetegu, which is? there are several options at the choice window
[09:03] <urbanlime> Bluetegu did you leave ~1mb of space between the partitions, sometimes partition errors may occur if the partitions overlap
[09:04] <Bluetegu> I chose install besides windows 7 and it offered a partitioning between the two.
[09:04] <Bluetegu> I didn't select any overriding value.
[09:06] <urbanlime> Bluetegu, try editing the partitions and giving them a bit of wiggle room with a live disk, it may be from overlapping
[09:06] <Bluetegu> For some strange reason when I'm rebooting from the installation CD now, it takes ages for Ubuntu to come up, and if I press escape to see the printing I see a loop of authentication failure printing.
[09:06] <Bluetegu> urbanlime, do you mean use gparted for this?
[09:06] <urbanlime> bluetegu yes
[09:06] <nit-wit> Bluetegu, generally with a dual boot you want to build the partitions in gparted, or the custom install the last line at the bottom, you could wipe Windows if your not careful
[09:07] <nit-wit> Bluetegu, you also must know the limitations of primary partitions as well 4 per hd, or 3 and a extended for the linux/
[09:07] <Bluetegu> Ok, thank. I'll try Gparted. Basically I only need to shrink the windows 7 partition and then let the ubuntu installation do the rest, right?
[09:08] <necavi> So I now have the ability to liveboot into 10.04, but I'm unsure of what exactly would be best to do at this point, should I attempt to get my logs and programming files off of the install, then do a fresh 11.04? Or is there some suggested way to recover from a partial upgrade? (A lot of things thing I'm still running 10.04, but 10.04 setup seems to think that I'm running 10.10)
[09:08] <nit-wit> Bluetegu, I would only shrink W7 with its disk manager but gparted will work be careful
[09:09] <theadmin> Bluetegu: My suggestion is to select to partition disks manually in Ubuntu install and mount the partition you want Ubuntu on as /
[09:10] <necavi> (addendum, this is in relation to a question I posed ~hour ago, I can past it to others via PM if needed)
[09:10] <Bluetegu> nit-wit, Thanks, I'll take a look at disk manager. The idea here is also to shrink the partition and let then ubuntu install do the rest.
[09:10] <Atlantic777> Ummm can I completely remove kubuntu after installing kubuntu-desktop/netbook?
[09:10] <theadmin> Atlantic777: Yes
[09:11] <nit-wit> Bluetegu, I have seen a ot of people when I helped at the UF, who let ubuntu do the work and ended up with a wiped W7.
[09:11] <nit-wit> *lot
[09:12] <Atlantic777> theadmin: thanks, hope that it is the same for lubuntu-desktop
[09:12] <theadmin> Atlantic777: It's same for any task
[09:13] <urbanlime> Atlantic777 it is the same for any operating system
[09:13] <Bluetegu> nit-wit, I don't want to be one of those... Where is the disk manager? Its not in System Tools folder?
[09:13] <urbanlime> Atlantic777 you need to make sure that the bootloader is configured for the new os however
[09:13] <Infernet> hey all
[09:14] <harrison> hey
[09:14] <nit-wit> Bluetegu, in the admin of W7 type disk mana   and you will create new partitions or something like that I'm on W7 now but in a limited account I can't acces it.
[09:14] <guestguest> Hi, guys. Do you have any information about implemention of 3.0 core to Ubuntu?
[09:15] <guestguest> *implementation
[09:15] <ThinkT510> guestguest: wait for the next ubuntu release
[09:15] <nit-wit> Bluetegu, I'm going to go to admin be right back
[09:15] <Bluetegu> nit-wit, found it...
[09:17] <TBotNik> All: That last move of purging Network Manager killed my network, so had to run from the liveCD to get back up.  Posting errors in PB as soon as I can recall/remember how to chroot to the HDD and get the errors file I saved.
[09:17] <guestguest> ThinkT510 : you mean Oneiric Ocelot got 3.0 core?
[09:17] <Dvyjones> Is there a program that allows you to migrate to a new Ubuntu server, that copies the packages and configuration?
[09:18] <Dvyjones> (It's 64-bit to 32-bit, so the binaries won't work on the new server if you just copy the HDD)
[09:18] <jrib> !clone | Dvyjones
[09:18] <TBotNik> Dvyjones: Yup
[09:18] <jrib> Dvyjones: configuration is contained in /etc
[09:18] <brotatos> how do i activate sticky keys?
[09:19] <jrib> brotatos: should be in system -> preferences -> keyboard
[09:19] <ThinkT510> guestguest: if you are referring to the linux kernel then i think so
[09:19] <guestguest> ThinkT510 : thank for that information
[09:19] <nit-wit> I'm back did you find the disk manad
[09:19] <nit-wit> ger
[09:19] <ThinkT510> !11.10 | guestguest
[09:20] <Bluetegu> nit-wit, yes, thanks.
[09:20] <Bluetegu> nit-wit, I see the option to shrink the partition
[09:20] <nit-wit> cool I am going back to my other account
[09:23] <nit-wit> nothing like being in root on the iirc to feel vulnerable, sandboxed or not
[09:25] <auscompgeek> Hey guys, I'm having a problem installing Natty.
[09:25] <Bluetegu> nit-wit, I think I understand now why the ubuntu install partitioning failed. When I press the shrink volume option, it tells me that you can not shrink beyond the point where the unmovable files are located, and gives maximum size of 190G, which is less than what the ubuntu partitioning tried to do.
[09:26] <auscompgeek> It always gives me an error message saying "the installer has encountered an unrecoverable error"
[09:26] <dyd> why when i open remote desktop viewer i see 2 entries for all computers connected?
[09:26] <branant> I have a sound problem with 11.04 on Asus G53JW. Sound plays only through headphones, but not speakers.
[09:27] <nit-wit> Bluetegu, and if you use gparted to go past that you may have problems, you aware of partitions amounts correct
[09:27] <TBotNik> Dvyjones: Just a minute and I'll paste the command here 4 you.
[09:27] <branant> I checked alsamixer and everything is unmuted but still no luck
[09:27] <dc5ala> auscompgeek, that's not really a helpful error message. Have you checked for console output on one of the ttys?
[09:28] <IzzyTheFedoraGuy> I'm new, so if this is a bit of a noob question, sorry.  When I try starting my computer from the flash drive, it just gives me a black screen with some copyright stuff at the top
[09:28] <nit-wit> Bluetegu, when I want more space I shutdown the paging, I don't really use the recovery poinys, and defragg to get a smaller shrink
[09:28] <Bluetegu> nit-wit, Many thanks. Hopefully I wont have problems going this route.
[09:28] <theadmin> IzzyTheFedoraGuy: So X doesn't start?
[09:28] <TBotNik> All: K my restart and reboot errors are at: http://pastebin.com/Dh9AMdyq

[09:28] <nit-wit> Bluetegu, back up the W7 if you can
[09:28] <branant> In Slackware I fixed that issue by changing rhe master to PCM, but I don't know how to change that in ubuntu
[09:28] <lonix> a

[09:29] <rb_> Hi all, I have a live USB 11.04 install, when I boot it I need to be able to write data back to the FAT partition on the USB stick (not the squashfs root fs), this did work with the live desktop, but since moving to server (I don't need X/gui stuff) it now mounts it as read only (on /cdrom/). Does anyone know about the syslinux boot process and when ubuntu mounts the USB to /cdrom/ and how i go about changing it to rw?
[09:29] <IzzyTheFedoraGuy> I restart my computer and booted from the flash drive, none of the keys seem to work
[09:30] <branant> theadmin: thanks, I will give it a try\
[09:30] <Infernet> auscompgeek: maybe you need to download it again
[09:30] <IzzyTheFedoraGuy> it's the same lettering as the startup screens, the only way I can get out of the screen is to completely shut off my computer
[09:31] <samosanaan> test
[09:31] <auscompgeek> Infernet: problem is that I don't have the bandwidth to do so
[09:31] <TBotNik> Dvyjones: To capture on current machine use cmd: dpkg --get-selections > /mypath/myfile.txt  to restore on next compute use cmd: dpkg --set-selections <  /mypath/myfile.txt
[09:31] <TBotNik> Dvyjones: Simple enough?
[09:33] <TBotNik> Dvyjones: Works very well, I do it on all my machines with over 150 apps in my list that are not part of the liveCD.  Actually adding it to my adhoc liveCD versions.
[09:33] <IzzyTheFedoraGuy> is there something I need to do at that screen to get ubuntu to work?
[09:33] <Infernet> auscompgeek: do you try with the live cd?
[09:33] <TBotNik> IzzyTheFedoraGuy: What u mean?
[09:34] <auscompgeek> Infernet: err, I thought I did download the live cd
[09:34] <IzzyTheFedoraGuy> I tried installing ubuntu, but when I boot from the flash drive, it just gives me a black screen with copyright stuff at the top, none of the keys seem to work
[09:35] <TBotNik> All:  Dang it, as always, when you are making progress and you crash; the guy you were working with goes away and you start over.
[09:35] <Infernet> auscompgeek: put the dvd installation and boot from it, when ask you "try" or "install" choice try
[09:36] <nit-wit> IzzyTheFedoraGuy, do you know what the graphics card is?
[09:36] <auscompgeek> or isn't ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso the live cd image
[09:36] <IzzyTheFedoraGuy> would it be the ATI Mobility Radeon?
[09:38] <nit-wit> IzzyTheFedoraGuy, you may need a low graphics login; power on and tap the shift key at the gui hit f6 choose nomodeset and boot from there.
[09:38] <Infernet> auscompgeek: well is likely that the download is corrupt
[09:39] <IzzyTheFedoraGuy> kk, thanks, I'll try that
[09:39] <TBotNik> All: When I chroot to HDD from liveCD and run synaptic is RAM copy from liveCD or the root copy on the HDD being modified?
[09:40] <auscompgeek> Infernet: would the fact that the computer is about 10 years old contribute to it?
[09:41] <auscompgeek> e.g. low RAM probably
[09:41] <Infernet> auscompgeek: probably...
[09:42] <auscompgeek> hang on, I'll test on my 1GB RAM netbook ;p
[09:42] <Infernet> auscompgeek: mostly with the HD
[09:42] <Infernet> :O i dont think you have problems :P
[09:44] <auscompgeek> Infernet: HD? say what?
[09:44] <Infernet> auscompgeek: HD is iqual to Hard Disk
[09:45] <auscompgeek> Infernet: that'd be HDD :p
[09:46] <Infernet> is not neccessary the driver ;)
[09:46] <auscompgeek> but I don't think the HDD has anything to do with it
[09:46] <auscompgeek> HDD = hard disk drive

Was advised to purge Network Manager, as it kept overwriting the /etc/resolv.conf file, so we could not get the nameserver working.  When I purged NM it took the wlan0 configs out completely and now having to boot from liveCD to have inet access to fix this latest screw up.  HEEEELLLLP!

[10:08] <An_Ony_Moose> http://paste.pocoo.org/show/446628/ I get this bunch of errors. How can they be fixed?
[10:09] <An_Ony_Moose> aah wait I think I actually need to boot ubuntu for it to work
[10:09] <An_Ony_Moose> never mind
[10:12] <AlexDevilLX> How to change password?
[10:12] <iceroot> AlexDevilLX: passwd
[10:13] <iceroot> AlexDevilLX: if you mean the user-password
[10:13] <dc5ala> AlexDevilLX, launch "User and groups"
[10:14] <andylockran> guys, I'm trying to work out how to differentiate between a desktop and server in the case of LTS support.
[10:15] <rb_> i managed to fix my issue.. mount -o remount,rw :)
[10:15] <AlexDevilLX> Thx
[10:15] <andylockran> I have installed a Hardy 8.04 box as a server - how do I know that I'm getting updates for the software installed on that box
[10:15] <andylockran> i.e. if i've installed openoffice on it, or ubuntu-desktop ontop of the server iso?
[10:15] <ThinkT510> !lts
[10:15] <veleoe> hi i was installed  rtl8188su and 8192su under ubuntu 10.04 lts but  it isn't worked  any ideas
[10:16] <gigenieks_> can someone explain me GRUB2 reinstallation
[10:16] <andylockran> ThinkT510: if that was directed at me I am aware of the policy, I'm more interested in the mechanism.
[10:16] <gigenieks_> I will reinstall Windows
[10:16] <veleoe> ubuntu has more problems with wuindows drivers
[10:16] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, you want a good link?
[10:16] <gigenieks_> so, I will need reinstall grub2
[10:16] <andylockran> as I'm running a hardy server, but unsure as to whether all the packages I have installed on it would be candidates for the 5 year support or the 3.
[10:16] <gigenieks_> no
[10:16] <gigenieks_> I read this:
[10:16] <gigenieks_> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2
[10:17] <gigenieks_> i just dont understand the difference in last line --->
[10:17] <TBotNik> veleoe: What?  Explain!
[10:17] <gigenieks_> sudo grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/sdX
[10:17] <gigenieks_> "sdX"
[10:17] <gigenieks_> HOW do i know what to set?
[10:17] <gigenieks_> I have 3 HDD's
[10:17] <dogears> has anyone had problems installing Gimp on 11.04?
[10:18] <gigenieks_> sda, sdb, sdc (sdc has win and kubuntu partitions)
[10:18] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, run the sudo fdisk-l command
[10:18] <veleoe> why this drivers is working in ubuntu 11.04 but  not in ubuntu 10.04?
[10:18] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, whicj=h HD is Ubuntu in
[10:18] <nit-wit> *which
[10:18] <gigenieks_> sdc5
[10:18] <veleoe> rtl8188su realteck!
[10:19] <gigenieks_> sudo grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/sdX
[10:19] <Ynodde> dogears:working fine for me
[10:19] <dc5ala> dogears, not here, you run into any problems?
[10:19] <gigenieks_> but what to set in X place?
[10:19] <andylockran> gigenieks_: run fdisk -l
[10:19] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, this is where you want to be on the page. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Copy%20LiveCD%20Files
[10:20] <andylockran> and indentify your disks, and set /dev/sdX to the disk where you'd like grub installed.
[10:20] <andylockran> where X = a,b, or c - depending on which disk you're installing to
[10:20] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, the commands are slightly different.
[10:20] <dc5ala> gigenieks_, usually the one that your system is looking for a bootmanager (first in boot order list)
[10:20] <veleoe> ubuntu has several problem with usb wireless ,this problem needs be resolve
[10:21] <gigenieks_> hmm...
[10:21] <gigenieks_> for example if I set in BIOS
[10:21] <gigenieks_> sdb
[10:21] <gigenieks_> which is 250gb data hdd
[10:21] <gigenieks_> then if i installed on sda
[10:21] <gigenieks_> it wont boot?
[10:22] <Ynodde> gigenieks_:easiest is let the 1st hdd boot (/dev/sda) and install grub on that
[10:22] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, generally the mbr of th HD installed in is suggested.
[10:22] <ThinkT510> gigenieks_: wherever the bios looks first, thats where you want the bootloader to be
[10:23] <veleoe> here nobody help me
[10:23] <gigenieks_> Okey lets reprase:
[10:23] <veleoe> okey
[10:24] <nit-wit> veleoe, your question is rather vague
[10:24] <veleoe> what?
[10:24] <veleoe> bye
[10:25] <gigenieks_> grrr.... how can I explain this in english :D
[10:25] <gigenieks_> meaning right now in bios 1st HDD is sdc; but as far as I know my mbr is on sda
[10:25] <gigenieks_> but everything boots
[10:26] <ThinkT510> gigenieks_: each disk has its own mbr
[10:26] <fmauro> the bios will likely iterate through the disks until a valid mbr is found
[10:26] <gigenieks_> in other words
[10:26] <gigenieks_> i can choose
[10:26] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, run this script if you like and pastebin it. http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/
[10:27] <dogears> dc5ala: tried to install and gave connection error? only on Gimp
[10:27] <ThinkT510> gigenieks_: whichever disk you choose to boot first, that is the mbr that will be obeyed
[10:27] <dogears> dc5ala: Thought
[10:28] <dogears> dc5ala: probably the connection will try again
[10:28] <dc5ala> dogears, just download problem then?
[10:29] <bugbrains> which is best C++ process communication library for ubuntu
[10:29] <bugbrains> i need to read the stdout of a process using C++
[10:30] <fmauro> bugbrains, piping the output of it is not an option?
[10:30] <dc5ala> dogears, you could try another mirror in package source settings
[10:30] <bugbrains> fmauro: i execute a process and it prints some text on sucees of failure to stdout
[10:30] <dogears> dc5ala: Yes it was giving weird errors. Thought it may have been something with Unity
[10:30] <bugbrains> i need it in a c++ code
[10:31] <gigenieks_> Do i understand correctly I ONLY need to set right partion where is Kubuntu installed
[10:31] <gigenieks_> but where is mbr
[10:31] <gigenieks_> WHATEVER
[10:31] <gigenieks_> ?
[10:31] <gigenieks_> it will load either way
[10:31] <dogears> dc5ala: Thanks for your help
[10:31] <dc5ala> dogears, you could blame Unity for lot of things but this sounds like remote server problem :P
[10:31] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, what hd is kubuntu in
[10:32] <fmauro> bugbrains, you could implement it as a return code. or is the returned text of importance?
[10:32] <gigenieks_> sdc
[10:32] <gigenieks_> sdc5
[10:32] <bugbrains> fmauro:  returned text
[10:32] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, itis installed right
[10:32] <gigenieks_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/652319/
[10:32] <bugbrains> is important
[10:32] <fmauro> bugbrains, let me think.
[10:32] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, thanks hold on
[10:33] <dogears> dc5ala: I find it very friendly but it is certainly different
[10:33] <gigenieks_> again question i can set WHATEVER HDD i want for example sdb which is 250gb ide data hard drive
[10:33] <gigenieks_> and if I remove it
[10:33] <gigenieks_> I CANT boot
[10:33] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, sdc5 is kubuntu
[10:33] <gigenieks_> yeah it is
[10:33] <dc5ala> dogears, you welcome
[10:34] <gigenieks_> that is not the issue or thing that i dont understand
[10:34] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, can you boot to it now?
[10:34] <gigenieks_> Im in kubuntu
[10:34] <gigenieks_> i will reinstall Windows
[10:34] <gigenieks_> thats why i need to know
[10:34] <dc5ala> gigenieks_, newer BIOS sometimes also have their own kind of bootmanager (like pressing F8), with that you could theoretically also install grub in your linux drive. but if you want to use grub as main bootmanager you need it in the first one
[10:34] <gigenieks_> about grub
[10:35] <Olotila> I have a working RAID set, but I cant mount it here. With over 2,5TB of data in GPT partition.
[10:35] <stefanos> hello, i have problem with my chrome, i run it as root once and now when i run it as simple user all preferences are lost, why?
[10:35] <gigenieks_> ok concrete situation in BIOS
[10:35] <gigenieks_> i have sdc hdd
[10:35] <fmauro> bugbrains, you could use popen from stdio.h
[10:35] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, in the terminal run   sudo grub-install /dev/sdc    and have that HD first in the bios or use the key propmt to have the choice of boot. Also run  sudo update-grub after the first command
[10:36] <TBotNik> All: Dang it's late, later off to Z land 4 me!!  Cheers!! :)  :)
[10:36] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, does that make sense to yah.;)
[10:36] <gigenieks_> I will 100% ask this in forums :D
[10:36] <gigenieks_> but i kinda 50% understand of it.
[10:36] <bugbrains> fmauro: i will try and come back
[10:37] <gigenieks_> if i set mbr on sdc
[10:37] <gigenieks_> wouldn't it fuck windows bootloader?
[10:37] <gigenieks_> cuz windows will be on sdc too
[10:37] <gigenieks_> as is Kubuntu
[10:37] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, the first command just reloads grub to the mbr , leaving kubuntu as the grub control
[10:37] <LjL> gigenieks_: control the language please
[10:38] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, yes but grub will see windows and it will be in the grub menu to boot from
[10:38] <gigenieks_> If i know it better i could control :D
[10:38] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, if you ran the script I posted we could get a little more info as to other options
[10:38] <spankbot> Why sould X Server crash on my laptop if there is not pwr supply plugged in?
[10:39] <gigenieks_> nit-wit, sec
[10:39] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, I have W7 on my hard drive and grub is in the mbr
[10:39] <nit-wit> with natty
[10:39] <nit-wit> on the hd
[10:42] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, if you want to keep the MS bootloader you could use easybcd, but it looks like sda and sdb are data and sdc is a windows OS and kubuntu
[10:42] <gigenieks_> nit-wit: http://paste.ubuntu.com/652337/
[10:42] <gigenieks_> YES sda and sdb is data
[10:42] <gigenieks_> so it is recommended to set grub to sdc?
[10:43] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, so do you have a recovery or install disc for windows?
[10:43] <spankbot> Is there a laptop power settings for NVidia?  Is this what is causing my machine to blow?
[10:43] <gigenieks_> I dont need it
[10:43] <gigenieks_> i have just installation
[10:44] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, it is already ther run sudo update-grub in kubuntu and put the sdc first in the bios
[10:44] <lotuspsychje> spankbot: you could try the logs in your system
[10:44] <nit-wit> *there
[10:44] <gigenieks_> it is already there..
[10:44] <gigenieks_> what?
[10:44] <gigenieks_> Windows
[10:45] <gigenieks_> ?
[10:45] <FloodBot1> gigenieks_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:45] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, yeah look at the top of the script  Grub2 (v1.99) is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdc
[10:45] <abhinav_singh> i am using 32 bit ubuntu 11.04 ..i want to use 64 bit ubutnu 11.04 ...is it a good decision..
[10:45] <spankbot> I may have found someone w/ the similar Laptop and NVidia problem running FreeBSD
[10:46] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, I asked about the windows disc as yoiu would use thenm to reload the MS bootloader if needed
[10:46] <lotuspsychje> abhinav_singh: yes i also use it and very happy with it(if your cpu support 64-bit)
[10:47] <abhinav_singh> lotuspsychje:  yes my cpu support 64 bit..but right now i am using 32 bit ...so if i have clean install of ubuntu 64 bit all my data will be gone..
[10:47] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, W7 is in the grub menu now if you rebooted you could boot to windows... if the sdc HD is read first in te bios
[10:47] <gigenieks_> grub has windows entry
[10:47] <lotuspsychje> abhinav_singh: there are several apps for data backup, after that do a 64 bit clean install
[10:48] <gigenieks_> it could even boot in safe mode
[10:48] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, yes the script shows it
[10:48] <gigenieks_> but something is wrong with Win7
[10:48] <gigenieks_> it has bsod
[10:48] <gigenieks_> and i set stupid thing via
[10:48] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, did you resize it
[10:48] <abhinav_singh> can you please name some of themm..i dnt wanna take any risk lotuspsychje
[10:48] <gigenieks_> msconfig Safe mode "minimal" = everythime it goes to safe mode
[10:48] <gigenieks_> and dont boot
[10:48] <gigenieks_> it is not issue of grub
[10:48] <gigenieks_> it is windows issue
[10:49] <gigenieks_> will just reinstall
[10:49] <gigenieks_> whatever
[10:49] <lotuspsychje> abhinav_singh: didnt try some myself, software centre would be a good start, or asking in chat whats best data backup app
[10:49] <gigenieks_> so your suggestion is to set sdc as MBR
[10:49] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, yes the safe=f8 is available choose windows at grub and hit the f8, and run a chkdsk
[10:49] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, it already is there.
[10:50] <gigenieks_> f8 > chkdsk?
[10:50] <bolt12> hi Everyone, I am trying to setup nfs client, but when I run showmount -e it displays "clnt_create: RPC: Program not registered"
[10:50] <gigenieks_> It doesnt have that functionality
[10:50] <bolt12> i have portmap and nfs-common installed and portmap is running
[10:50] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, do you have a install or recovery disc
[10:50] <bolt12> could someone help me with this

[10:54] <kora-chan> hi guys, i'm using natty on my x220 tablet. i had to upgrade the kernel to 3.0rc7 so i could use my display port instead of only the vga. however it seems that the xserver-xorg-input-wacom doesnt work anymore. any ideas how to fix this, or do i have to compile my own version against the new kernel headers?
[10:54] <saus4ges> I've replaced the cable, I've change ethernet port on the "router", neither of them fix it. I've got a VOIP phone working with no problems on the same router
[10:55] <lotuspsychje> saus4ges: you have the correct eth card driver installed?
[10:55] <saus4ges> not sure lotuspsychje. I do know that it was working (without a single disconnect) until last night, and I've not done an upgrade
[10:55] <abhinav_singh> lotuspsychje:  so i will have to take backup of my home folder only right...
[10:56] <SSetoo> hello
[10:56] <lotuspsychje> abhinav_singh: yes, all the installed 32 bit programs have to be reinstalled after on the 64-bit versions
[10:56] <gigenieks_> Okey enough talking in other words I now reinstall windows in the same partion as it is now
[10:56] <gigenieks_> then it is recommended to set mbr
[10:56] <gigenieks_> sdc
[10:57] <gigenieks_> if i set it for example sda
[10:57] <gigenieks_> which is data 80gb
[10:57] <gigenieks_> and remove it
[10:57] <squig> saus4ges, things fall apart
[10:57] <gigenieks_> i couldnt boot right?
[10:57] <fmauro> bugbrains, I put some code together quickly, hope it helps http://paste.ubuntu.com/652349/
[10:57] <lotuspsychje> saus4ges: so what did change after last night?
[10:57] <wh1zz0> Hi guys.. I'm on natty. Anytime I hibernate my machine it goes into suspend mode and I can't not resume. I have tried several key combinations but to no avail. Please how can I solve this problem?
[10:58] <bugbrains> fmauro: your help is well appreciated :)
[10:58] <abhinav_singh> is there any software which can check what are the 32 bit softwares installled in my system and when i upgrade to 64 bit ..it can reinstall them lotuspsychje
[10:58] <SSetoo> unity 2d without compiz right ß
[10:58] <gigenieks_> someone confirm me?
[10:58] <saus4ges> nothing lotuspsychje, it was working when I left it and when I came back this morning it was refusing to connect to eth0, only wireless. Funnily enough, I've just noticed that I  can't change the wireless network either (it's connected but I can't disconnect)
[10:58] <lotuspsychje> abhinav_singh: ask in chat, don't know if something like that exists
[10:59] <abhinav_singh> okay
[10:59] <spankbot> lotuspsychje this may be the solution
[10:59] <abhinav_singh>  is there any software which can check what are the 32 bit softwares installled in my system and when i upgrade to 64 bit ..it can reinstall them
[10:59] <SseTuu> unity 2d without compiz right ß
[10:59] <spankbot> lotuspsychje http://tutanhamon.com.ua/technovodstvo/NVIDIA-UNIX-driver/#general-information
[10:59] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, see yah
[11:00] <gigenieks_> is it as I said?
[11:00] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, so sdc1 is the windos OS-C
[11:00] <gigenieks_> yes it is, but I ask something different
[11:00] <SseTuu> unity 2d without compiz right ß
[11:01] <lotuspsychje> abhinav_singh: seems like apt has an option to list all apps installed to use to convert to 64 bit
[11:02] <saus4ges> lotuspsychje, I'll reboot into Windows to see if I can isolate it being a hardware problem. Will let you know, thanks for the help
[11:03] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, so I get the impresson your afraid of losing the MS bootloader, it can be reloaded with the install disc if needed, putting grub in any other then the sdc I woudn't advise
[11:03] <fmauro> bugbrains, note that this will only print stdout and not stderr. you have to append 2>&1 for that
[11:04] <gigenieks_> so if i set to sdc it could make windows ubootable
[11:04] <gigenieks_> ?
[11:05] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, no reda closer
[11:05] <nit-wit> *read
[11:05] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, answer this question please. Did you resize windows to install kubuntu?
[11:06] <gigenieks_> I shrinked via Disc Management in W7 > installed on "unallocated space"
[11:06] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, did you see if windows booted before you installed kubuntu?
[11:06] <alex--> Which font does ubuntu uses?
[11:07] <iceroot> alex--: the font is called "ubuntu"
[11:07] <alex--> Can I use it on my website?
[11:07] <gigenieks_> yes I did
[11:07] <iceroot> alex--: it should be free
[11:07] <alex--> iceroot: ^
[11:07] <iceroot> alex--: but maybe check the licence first
[11:07] <gigenieks_> Ok I will go do all that stuff if worst comes I will be back here ---->
[11:07] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, stange the script shows everything to be okay, but yet windows does not show in the repair

[11:08] <bugbrains> fmauro: how to get stderr
[11:08] <gigenieks_> in forums one answered
[11:08] <gigenieks_> that repair disc have
[11:08] <gigenieks_> minimal of boot files
[11:08] <gigenieks_> NO DRIVERS
[11:08] <gigenieks_> and windows is on sata hdd
[11:08] <FloodBot1> gigenieks_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:08] <gigenieks_> problem is that
[11:09] <gigenieks_> I DONT KNOW, and noone did help to find those drivers
[11:09] <gigenieks_> if could find them then it would be so much easier
[11:09] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, is the disc a standard install or a recovery disc
[11:09] <gigenieks_> now i have just install
[11:09] <alex--> iceroot: can i downlolad it from somewhere?
[11:09] <fmauro> bugbrains, instead of for example "ls -r" use "ls -r 2>&1" as argument for popen()
[11:09] <alex--> the font i mean
[11:09] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, that disc has sata drivers
[11:10] <nit-wit> should anyway
[11:10] <gigenieks_> ofcourse!
[11:10] <gigenieks_> I just have old motherboard
[11:10] <bugbrains> fmauro: ok the it will give both stdout and stderr on variable output
[11:10] <gigenieks_> so HARD to find those sata drivers for repair usb I had
[11:11] <fmauro> bugbrains, afaik yes
[11:11] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, so you have tried to boot to windows from the grub menu and get a bsod

[11:12] <lotuspsychje> dooglus: maybe set chrome to default browser option?
[11:12] <gigenieks_> no
[11:12] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: I've set chrome to be my preferred web browser
[11:12] <gigenieks_> there is no cmd
[11:12] <gigenieks_> if that is what u ask
[11:12] <nit-wit> yes
[11:12] <gigenieks_> if I could i would done chkdsk /r /f
[11:12] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: if I type 'gnome-www-browser', I get chrome
[11:12] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: but gnome-terminal has other ideas
[11:12] <gigenieks_> I will ask this ---->
[11:13] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, yeah I suspect you would have, the guys at #windows would probably be more helpful as far as getting MS going if you still want to try, just suggesting
[11:13] <spankbot> where can I find my XServer logs?
[11:13] <nit-wit> ##windows
[11:13] <jrib> spankbot: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[11:14] <spankbot> jrib thnx
[11:14] <Auriga> spankbot lol...
[11:14] <lotuspsychje> dooglus: http://askubuntu.com/questions/42344/how-do-i-change-the-browser-that-gnome-terminal-opens-links-with
[11:14] <f3bruary> Say I have installed an application (.deb) and I lost the original deb file and it cannot be found on the internet. Can I create a net deb file of that application ?
[11:14] <f3bruary> net=new*
[11:14] <gigenieks_> If i set for example mbr to sdb (250 data) then it is SAFE to assume that everything will boot fine BUT
[11:14] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: I'll take a look.  using firefox :)
[11:15] <gigenieks_> if i remove it; I cant boot to kubuntu OR windows
[11:15] <gigenieks_> right?
[11:15] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, grub is in the correct place and is not causing the bsod
[11:15] <gigenieks_> however sdc would be "smarter" but a little riskier?
[11:15] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: I don't have a 'system' button
[11:15] <gigenieks_> Im not saying that!!
[11:15] <gigenieks_> im saying that when i install
[11:15] <gigenieks_> windows
[11:15] <gigenieks_> NOW
[11:15] <abhinav_singh> my home folder is about 90 gb ...how do i take backup of it
[11:16] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: what does "Go to System --> Administration --> Preferred Applications" run?
[11:16] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, sdc is where grub is now already
[11:16] <lotuspsychje> dooglus: no GUI?
[11:16] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: XFE4
[11:16] <dooglus> XFCE4*
[11:16] <gigenieks_> ok tnx
[11:16] <lotuspsychje> dooglus: not sure then sorry
[11:16] <gigenieks_> for now
[11:16] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: can you try it and see what process it runs?
[11:17] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: ps -ef | grep -i pref   before and after
[11:17] <tobiassjosten> Anyone know how to enable ACL for my eCryptFS mount?
[11:17] <dooglus> lotuspsychje: because I'll have the program on my computer, just the menu isn't running to start it from
[11:18] <nit-wit> gigenieks_, when you install windows to sdc1 it will put the ms bootloader to the sdc mbr so you would reload grub or use easybcd
[11:18] <fmauro> dooglus, it's /usr/bin/gnome-default-applications-properties
[11:19] <An_Ony_Moose> is it possible to convert a filesystem from ext4 to ext3 without losing the data? Or will I have to reformat it completely and then put the (backed up) data back on it?
[11:19] <dooglus> fmauro: thanks.  that'll fix it.  it's showing 'firefox'
[11:19] <dooglus> fmauro: I was using exo-preferred-applications before - that's the XFCE4 way
[11:19] <spankbot> jrib: should I be sing errors there? my XServer just crashed and cant find anything which reports the error
[11:20] <jrib> spankbot: check ~/.xsession-errors as well
[11:20] <fmauro> dooglus, strange how bash doesn't reference the xface one. oh well. if it works now..
[11:20] <nit-wit> An_Ony_Moose, you would want to back that up anyway that is riskie
[11:20] <nit-wit> *risky
[11:20] <An_Ony_Moose> nit-wit: nvm I'll just reformat it and put the data back on then
[11:21] <nit-wit> An_Ony_Moose, that is what I would do, are you trying to have a partition the Windows can read
[11:21] <nit-wit> *that
[11:21] <SoGooD> my HP printer can't print but it is registered as it is
[11:21] <An_Ony_Moose> nit-wit: no, but trying to mount the ext4 partition in ubuntu (as the root partition) said that it was trying to read outside the device. It mounts perfectly fine in debian
[11:21] <limnoflava> Test?
[11:22] <nit-wit> An_Ony_Moose, hmm root partition what is in it.
[11:23] <An_Ony_Moose> nit-wit: an ubuntu installation generated by debootstrap + some manual configuration
[11:23] <dooglus> here's a tricky one - I have a CentOS live CD image, and I've been trying to make a bootable USB from it using ubuntu 11.04.  is that possible?
[11:23] <An_Ony_Moose> nit-wit: such as a kernel etc
[11:23] <dooglus> I thought the USB creator program was meant to be able to do it, but it doesn't seem to like the .iso file
[11:23] <VictorCL> I have ubuntu 10.04 .. .should I upgrade to 11 ?
[11:23] <fmauro> dooglus, you could try unetbootin
[11:24] <nit-wit> An_Ony_Moose, sounds more like a faulty setup not surec it is the partition type
[11:24] <VictorCL> is it a big difference?
[11:24] <An_Ony_Moose> nit-wit: I'll try it anyway
[11:24] <jrgifford> VictorCL, it depends.
[11:24] <nit-wit> An_Ony_Moose, follow your bliss. ;)
[11:24] <An_Ony_Moose> nit-wit: only 500-odd MB to copy, so I'm fine
[11:24] <An_Ony_Moose> brb testing
[11:24] <dooglus> fmauro: ok, thanks
[11:24] <nit-wit> cool
[11:24] <lotuspsychje> !unity | VictorCL
[11:24] <jrib> VictorCL: there's a big interface change.  Maybe try a live cd and see if you like it first.  There's no need to upgrade and if you like 10.04, you can just wait until 12.04 and upgrade then (to the next scheduled LTS)
[11:25] <VictorCL> if I want to upgrade ... is it too complicated? .. will I have to make a backup ?
[11:25] <limnoflava> My mouse doesn't automatically work at startup. I had to press ESC a few times before the cursor can be moved. Notifications show up and fade away, though, which shows that the system isn't actually freezing.
[11:25] <abhinav_singh> i am going to do a clean install of 64 bit from my 32 bit machine..is there any software which will select all the installed package in my 32 bit machine and when i am done with 64 bit ubuntu installation it should reinstall the 64 bit versions of my installed packages
[11:25] <jrib> !upgrade | VictorCL
[11:26] <VictorCL> I dont like much this interface .. too simple
[11:26] <jrib> VictorCL: it's not complicated (see ubottu).  You need to upgrade 10.04 -> 10.10 -> 11.04. As for backups, you should have them anyway
[11:26] <VictorCL> still having trouble creating folders :/
[11:26] <jrib> VictorCL: right click -> create folder?
[11:26] <Auriga> VictorCL, What are you using?
[11:27] <fmauro> limnoflava, tell us more about your system, is it a usb mouse, what version of ubuntu are you running?
[11:27] <VictorCL> if I want to create a folder inside another folder ,, I select the folder .. then  I go .. create folder .. and it cdoesnt create the foder where I want it
[11:27] <VictorCL> it put it anywhere else
[11:27] <VictorCL> well many small details
[11:28] <limnoflava> fmauro, I'm running 10.10. It doesn't matter, I use a laptop and both the trackpad and any USB mouse won't be able to move a few seconds from startup unless I press ESC repeatedly.
[11:28] <asyhar> im in trouble making blackbuntu  bootable on my usb,, i appreciate any suggest
[11:28] <VictorCL> unity looks nice
[11:28] <limnoflava> I mean the cursor.
[11:28] <abhinav_singh> any help with my question?
[11:28] <jrib> !helpme | abhinav_singh
[11:29] <dooglus> fmauro: I'm trying unetbootin.  it asks for the type of distro, I chose 'centos', then it asks for the version, and offers '4' or '5'.  I have '6'.  reckon it really matters?
[11:29] <jrib> !clone | abhinav_singh
[11:29] <lotuspsychje> abhinav_singh: ive read up some trick with dpkg list, so you can install on 64 bit later
[11:29] <An_Ony_Moose> WELL that didn't work.
[11:29] <An_Ony_Moose> http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2010/01/debootstrap-minimal-debian-ubuntu-installation/ << Failed
[11:29] <fmauro> dooglus, i think you can force an iso image anyway. afaik it matters not
[11:30] <metatagg> !automate
[11:30] <abhinav_singh> hey cool what are the tricks man lotuspsychje
[11:30] <fmauro> limnoflava, very well. brb gonna see what I can do
[11:30] <dooglus> fmauro: thanks for your help
[11:31] <mjanp> hi. i'm using evolution client to Gmail by IMAP (ubu 11.04 x64). When i delete message, this message isn't deleted on gmail. It is normal?
[11:31] <limnoflava> fmauro: Thank you very much. I'll be waiting.
[11:31] <lotuspsychje> abhinav_singh: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-get-list-installed-software-reinstallation-restore.html
[11:31] <lotuspsychje> abhinav_singh: not sure howto force it to 64 bit afterwards
[11:33] <fmauro> limnoflava, can you reboot/recreate the issue and post the output of dmesg?
[11:33] <limnoflava> fmauro, I'll try that. I'll be back here in a few.
[11:34] <An_Ony_Moose> How can I install a bootable copy of ubuntu without a liveUSB or live CD?
[11:34] <An_Ony_Moose> I've tried a tutorial using debootstrap, it didn't work for me
[11:35] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, you can use a netboot image and put it on a usb-drive
[11:35] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, or is USB in general not an option
[11:36] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: the latter
[11:36] <mjanp> hi. i'm using evolution client to Gmail by IMAP (ubu 11.04 x64). When i delete message, this message isn't deleted on gmail (i was checking it on www). Is it normal?
[11:37] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, is the target bios PXE capable?
[11:37] <mgolisch> mjanp: did you tell it to remove stuff from the server?
[11:37] <mjanp> exactly:-)
[11:37] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: I believe so, but I have zero experience with that and have no other machines available
[11:37] <overrider_> I am preparing to apt-get install xorg and fluxbox etc - how can i prevent apt- from pulling in all xorg drivers except from the ones i actually need for my system? (intel)?
[11:38] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, so you have a machine you want to install ubuntu to, no optical drive and no usb?
[11:40] <rigved> hi everyone
[11:40] <mjanp> mgolish: i dont know where is this option
[11:40] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: no. But a running debian installation
[11:40] <lotuspsychje>  An_Ony_Moose: maybe clone clean ubuntu system to the drive you want
[11:41] <An_Ony_Moose> lotuspsychje: where do I get this clean ubuntu system? Is using a virtual machine an option?
[11:41] <rigved> i'm trying to install 11.04, but i get an error: not possible to install bootloader to the specified location - /dev/sda...can anyone help me regarding this?
[11:42] <lotuspsychje> An_Ony_Moose: download the ubuntu .iso and some clone apps might copy it to desired drive?
[11:42] <pngl> I have an SSH problem. Why is the output of those two commands different?: 1) ssh user@machine (goes into shell) echo $PATH; 2) ssh user@machine 'echo $PATH'
[11:42] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, the problem is getting the system to boot from where you have the initial system installed. this is no easy feat. is it a laptop?
[11:42] <An_Ony_Moose> lotuspsychje: then I would install a live ubuntu image to the hard drive
[11:43] <DarsVaeda> I how can I record output sound on 11.04?
[11:44] <rigved> i'm trying to install 11.04, but i get an error: not possible to install bootloader to the specified location - /dev/sda...can anyone help me regarding this?
[11:44] <lotuspsychje> An_Ony_Moose: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/5-alternativ-ways-install-ubuntu-linux/
[11:44] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: No, it's not a laptop. I got it up to the point where the kernel was loaded, but it couldn't mount the root partition
[11:44] <ChrisBuchholz> I have Arch installed on a partition, and also GRUB2 installed to /dev/sda. I just created a USB installer pen with USB-Creator from launchpad, and when i boot my machine and choose to boot from the usbpen, it loads grub on /dev/sda and starts arch instead of grub on the usbpen to start ubuntu. How come that be? Im using a MacBook Pro 5,5.
[11:45] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: something about an address being outside the physical disk. Even though it mounted fine in debian
[11:45] <duffman> Who wants to hold my hand through a ubuntu natty on macbook 2.1 install? Mainly, how to get it to boot from dvd ?!
[11:45] <An_Ony_Moose> duffman: did you try holding C while booting?
[11:46] <duffman> An_Ony_Moose: yes, the screen goes blank for a good 20 seconds and then goes to "missing operating system"
[11:46] <duffman> i did a md5sum of the dvd image, it ads up.
[11:46] <duffman> (just in case)
[11:46] <An_Ony_Moose> duffman: that's where my ideas end, sorry :(
[11:46] <duffman> An_Ony_Moose: np :) thank you.
[11:47] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, how did you manage to load the kernel?
[11:47] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, did you set up a partition, and make a grub entry after installing the root fs?
[11:47] <llutz> pngl: user@machine 'echo $PATH'    doen't read your remote .bashrc/.profile
[11:47] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: debootstrap to the empty partition, chroot into it, install the kernel, exit from chroot then update-grub and grub found it
[11:47] <dc5ala> duffman, for some hints have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook
[11:48] <duffman> thank you dc5ala
[11:48] <pngl> llutz: thank you
[11:48] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, k sounds good. But it wouldn't mount /
[11:49] <lolmaus> Got a problem with mdadm assembling a md127 device instead of md0 on reboot. The only solution i found on the web doesn't help me. Has anyone encountered such an issue?
[11:49] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: that's right. I forgot the exact error message
[11:50] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: something about the filesystem exceeding the bounds of the physical disk
[11:50] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: tried both ext4 and ext3
[11:50] <An_Ony_Moose> (excuse my use of enter as punctuation. I'll stop it)
[11:50] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, and you are sure it booted the kernel and it was not grub saying it couldn't boot the image in the first place?
[11:51] <lotuspsychje> An_Ony_moose: http://dimitar.me/clone-disk-drives-with-ubuntu/
[11:51] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: yes. It dumped me at an initramfs console
[11:51] <antihero> Is there an IRC channel for the Banshee media player?
[11:52] <lotuspsychje> !banshee | antihero
[11:52] <An_Ony_Moose> lotuspsychje: I know how to use dd. I just don't have an image of an ubuntu install
[11:52] <duffman> An_Ony_Moose: got it to load by holding alt, for future refference, cross fingers now, dvd is loaded and should be installing :D
[11:52] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, so far I would have gone about it the same as you have. I'm gonna try and virtualize it. got time?
[11:53] <duffman> this is so much better than loading OS X
[11:53] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: yup
[11:53] <ThinkT510> antihero: check thier website to see if they have an irc channel
[11:53] <An_Ony_Moose> duffman: nice, congratulations
[11:53] <KNUBBIG> Hey, I want to mirror a local directory to a remote one on an ftp which is mounted via curlftpfs. But rsync gives me this: rsync: mkstemp "/home/fabian/Downloads/server/.test.LI30de" failed: Operation not supported (95) Any ideas?
[11:54] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: I left out some details, the tutorial I used is here http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2010/01/debootstrap-minimal-debian-ubuntu-installation/
[11:54] <antihero> I'm doing OK with MPD but Banshee has neat Unity integration, except appears to suck for album artists
[11:54] <amith_> :D
[11:55] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, good, I'll be sure to follow that and another thing, you are using debian stable?
[11:56] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: yes
[11:56] <dinesh_> can anybody help me how to do reset settings in ubuntu
[11:56] <rigved> i'm trying to install 11.04, but i get an error: not possible to install bootloader to the specified location - /dev/sda...can anyone help me regarding this? it is in hardware raid setup
[11:56] <dr_willis> dinesh_:  clarify what settings exactly.
[11:56] <dinesh_> something i did.. total desktop settings has changed.. i dont know how to correct it
[11:57] <KNUBBIG> rigved: I remember having this, too. I had to install Ubuntu without the bootloader, boot into a live cd and then manually install grub to /dev/blabla, where blabla is most probably sthing like md0 or md1
[11:57] <dr_willis> user settings are in various .* files in their home dir. If you remove the files/dirs it will reset those. some are in 'gconf' settings sort of like a gnome setting regiestry. so it depends on the setting
[11:58] <dr_willis> dinesh_:  I recall the (unsupported by this channel) utilty Ubuntu-tweak has a way to reset/backup/restore user/gnome settings also.
[11:58] <blackalegator> hi all!
[11:58] <blackalegator> Could anyone help me please?
[11:59] <rigved> KNUBBIG: i'l still in the setup phase...i can set it to /dev/blahblah right now itself. how do i find out where to install it?
[11:59] <dr_willis> state the problem and see blackalegator .
[11:59] <user> dr_willis settings are in various .* files in their home dir. If you remove the files/dirs it will reset those. some are in 'gconf' settings sort of like a gnome  setting regiestry. so it depends on the setting
[11:59] <DistroJockey> lolmaus: Which particular "solution" did you try? There seem to be quite a number of people that have had this problem with varying solutions.
[11:59] <blackalegator> I want my smb share to be mounted on boot. Ive set up the fstab. Though now I need to make an init script which will be launched after network is initialised. Any idea?
[12:00] <KNUBBIG> rigved: mhh i dunno for sure, you need a console
[12:00] <KNUBBIG> rigved: if you've got nothing to wreak havoc on just try /md /md0 /md1 I'm not entirely sure
[12:00] <lolmaus> DistroJockey, the solution was to remove optional parameters from mdadm.conf and run "update-initramfs -u".
[12:01] <fmauro> blackalegator, are you using the default network-manager?
[12:01] <rigved> KNUBBIG: ok. so in the terminal i'll try using mount to find out what all is mounted...
[12:01] <DistroJockey> lolmaus: from the ARRAY line right?
[12:01] <lolmaus> DistroJockey, yup
[12:01] <KNUBBIG> rigved: yes or there was a command to list all raids .. I think dmraid or sth
[12:01] <blackalegator> fmauro, Yes!
[12:01] <lolmaus> DistroJockey, i also noticed that blkid, mdadm md0 and mdadm md127 show three different UUIDs. md127 is unmountable.
[12:02] <blackalegator> fmauro it is 10 minutes from my ubuntu installed
[12:02] <phoque_uni> uhm...
[12:02] <lolmaus> How do i manually check initramfs for mdadm entries? I suspect it has an obsolette one.
[12:02] <phoque_uni> does ubuntu only use grub.cfg and not menu.lst?
[12:03] <fmauro> blackalegator, okay if you extend your fstab entry with user so a regular user can mount it, you can use the network-manager.d scripts folder to launch stuff as soon as you establish a conneciton.
[12:03] <DistroJockey> lolmaus: Maybe this thread helps:  http://fossplanet.com/f12/mdadm-device-reassignment-106141/
[12:03] <dr_willis> phoque_uni:  grub2 uses grub.cfg, the old grub used menu.lst
[12:03] <rigved> KNUBBIG: yes, there is dmraid...i'll check...thanks!
[12:03] <KNUBBIG> rigved: np, good luck :)
[12:03] <blackalegator> fmauro, how do I do the first step?
[12:03] <phoque_uni> dr_willis, I see
[12:03] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: how's it going? :)
[12:04] <phoque_uni> what will happen if I modify grub.cfg to disable the discrete GPU and there is a kernel update?
[12:04] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, 1 minute left until i have the 1.1 gb debian stable image
[12:04] <lotuspsychje> blackalegator: maybe pysdm will help automount smb
[12:04] <AlexDevilLX> Hi, i have tried http://radu.cotescu.com/how-to-install-canon-lbp-printers-in-ubuntu/ for canon lbp3010 but it didnt work
[12:04] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: ah ok
[12:04] <fmauro> blackalegator, alright you open your fstab.
[12:04] <KNUBBIG> I want to mirror a local directory to a remote one on an ftp which is mounted via curlftpfs. But rsync gives me this: rsync: mkstemp "/home/fabian/Downloads/server/.test.LI30de" failed: Operation not supported (95) Any ideas?
[12:04] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: thanks for going to all the trouble of installing debian :D
[12:05] <blackalegator> fmauro, done
[12:05] <dc5ala> phoque_uni, but grub.cfg will be generated, see the top lines in that file
[12:05] <blackalegator> lotuspsychje, what? how??! It is a fstab gui editing tool
[12:05] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, don't worry man, I'll do anything to avoid having to study for my upcoming discrete mathematics exam :D
[12:06] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: haha
[12:06] <blackalegator> An_Ony_Moose, are you his examinator or what? xD
[12:06] <lotuspsychje> blackalegator: pysdm is gui tool for automount ntfs drives, it helped me alot on natty
[12:06] <dr_willis> ive had pysdm... err.. break things.. :) backup your fstab first..
[12:06] <An_Ony_Moose> blackalegator: No. He just wants to have something to do instead of studying?
[12:07] <fmauro> blackalegator, alright your entry will look somewhat like so: //user@SERVER/share /mountpoint smbfs ro,noauto 0,0
[12:07] <blackalegator> fmauro,  why noauto?
[12:07] <blackalegator> fmauro, Ive set it before already
[12:08] <lotuspsychje> dr_willis: working fine here :p
[12:08] <blackalegator> fmauro, //<IP_ADDRESS>/Music /home/oleg/Музыка cifs credentials=/root/.smbcreds,rw,iocharset=utf8,setuids,file_mode=0666,dir_mode=0777 0 0
[12:08] <blackalegator> smbcreds has my passs
[12:08] <fmauro> blackalegator, not needed if it's going to fail to mount on boot anyway. but you can leave it if you want. append user to ro,noauto (ofcourse you will want rw instead of ro)
[12:09] <AlexDevilLX> ccp send_data error exit on canon3010
[12:09] <blackalegator> fmauro, append user to ro?
[12:09] <rigved> KNUBBIG: no, it's not able to. one possible option is something like /dev/mapper/isw_djajajc_m17x_raid0 Linux device mapper. should i try it?
[12:09] <fmauro> blackalegator, good make it: [...]dir_mode=0777,user 0 0
[12:09] <blackalegator> fmauro, kay
[12:09] <KNUBBIG> rigved: yes
[12:10] <lolmaus> DistroJockey, i tried "mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 --update=homehost" (is that what your link suggests?). It assembled well but the problem persists after reboot.
[12:10] <phoque_uni> oh weird
[12:10] <fmauro> blackalegator, now if you open a terminal and type mount /home/oleg/Музыка it should mount your share
[12:10] <blackalegator> fmauro, it does
[12:10] <KNUBBIG> I want to mirror a local directory to a remote one on an ftp which is mounted via curlftpfs. But rsync gives me this: rsync: mkstemp "/home/fabian/Downloads/server/.test.LI30de" failed: Operation not supported (95) Any ideas?
[12:10] <phoque_uni> radeon.modeset=0 on boot does disable the GPU
[12:10] <phoque_uni> but doesnt turn it off
[12:11] <jn__> can someone send me the white ubuntu logo, the one on applications menu, from 10.10 ?
[12:11] <fmauro> blackalegator, good, now open a text editor of your choice
[12:11] <jn__> i want icon on xubuntu! :)
[12:11] <blackalegator> fmauro, *** soz it doesnt
[12:11] <blackalegator> fmauro, ROOT REQUIRED
[12:11] <cad> my unity2d launcher not responding, how to restart it
[12:12] <cad> ?
[12:12] <fmauro> blackalegator, k we'll figure that out in a second. don't worry about it for now
[12:12] <MohShami> Hey guys, I have ubuntu 11.04 on my laptop, and a solaris server. used to work fine, but recently I've started seeing "broken pipe" issues with SSH, the thing is, if I use windows to connect to the server everything is working fine, any ideas?
[12:12] <rigved> KNUBBIG: no. i'll try your earlier method. continue without bootloader. then i'll try to install using live cd...thnaks again!
[12:12] <blackalegator> fmauro, nope thats not the prob it has an error opening up my file with pass. Ill set its permissions to777
[12:13] <blackalegator> fmauro, but is there any use of it at all than? xD
[12:13] <klevison> I've got this error: http://postimage.org/image/2f9b88yf8/
[12:13] <KNUBBIG> rigved: mh okay, sorry. Good luck again, upon reboot you might have to reassemble your RAID via dmraid -ay (I think)
[12:13] <klevison> When I'm installing w7 into virtualbox
[12:13] <klevison> what can be?
[12:14] <DistroJockey> lolmaus: The assemble command may need more devices, not sure though. Sorry, I'm out of ideas atm. Good luck.
[12:14] <fmauro> blackalegator, if it wont work over fstab it doesn't matter. Letme write a script. just a sec
[12:14] <j3roth> klevison, is that a valid win7 image?
[12:14] <rigved> KNUBBIG: ok. will it cause problems with my windows setup?
[12:14] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: installing debian now?
[12:14] <lotuspsychje> klevison: both systems 32 bit?
[12:14] <klevison> both are 64
[12:15] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, right, jeez multitask :D booting virtual machine now.
[12:15] <KNUBBIG> rigved: It should probably not, but you might avoid installing the boot loader to the Windows disk
[12:15] <KNUBBIG> !dualboot
[12:15] <blackalegator> thanks. I dont have enough XP for writing scripts. especially init ones
[12:15] <KNUBBIG> Might help as well :)
[12:15] <lotuspsychje> klevison: virtual drive big enough for win7?
[12:15] <klevison> 20 gb
[12:15] <KNUBBIG> !RAID
[12:15] <KNUBBIG> as well :)
[12:15] <phoque_uni> how would be the best way to run "echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcharoo/switch" on boot?
[12:15] <klevison> lotuspsychje, is 20gb  enough?
[12:16] <lotuspsychje> klevison: loaded the win7 iso into virtual machine?
[12:16] <llutz> phoque_uni: /etc/rc.local
[12:16] <KNUBBIG> klevison: it's enough for installing it but for working on it you might need more space
[12:16] <phoque_uni> llutz, that isn't too early or something?
[12:16] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: no problem
[12:16] <klevison> I only wanna install itunes into w7
[12:16] <rigved> KNUBBIG: ok. thanks!
[12:16] <KNUBBIG> klevison: If you don't get an answer here, you might also try in the official vbox channel
[12:17] <KNUBBIG> rigved: again, no problem :-)
[12:17]  * p1l0t
[12:17] <ThinkT510> !upstart | phoque_uni
[12:17] <klevison> lotuspsychje, I'm instaling directly from the DVD
[12:17] <lotuspsychje> klevison: you can drag files on iphone/ipad with libmobiledevice too
[12:18] <fmauro> blackalegator, copy this to your text editor http://paste.ubuntu.com/652391/
[12:18] <ronin___> Hi, How can I install GTK in Ubuntu 10.10
[12:19] <lotuspsychje> klevison: seems virtual machine cant find the dvd for boot
[12:19] <blackalegator> fmauro, done
[12:19] <wols> ronin___: it's already installed. gnome cannot run without gtk
[12:19] <ThinkT510> ronin___: it already is
[12:19] <ronin___> when I wanna write program and use them, Compiler give me error
[12:20] <fmauro> blackalegator, now save it to /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/12-cifsmount  (root required)
[12:20] <klevison> lotuspsychje, so why?
[12:20] <wols> then you need the gtk -dev packages
[12:20] <klevison> my dvd is already mounted
[12:20] <jane-> how can i know which pubplic dns i use for resolving domain names to ips?
[12:20] <fmauro> blackalegator, remove or comment out your entry in fstab because now they will overlap.
[12:20] <lotuspsychje> klevison: not sure, but you could check dvd/iso options in the virtual machine?
[12:21] <wols> jane-: if you have a router, you can't. unless you check your router settings
[12:21] <blackalegator> fmauro, done
[12:21] <ronin___> how can I install gtk -dev
[12:21] <llutz> jane-: "less /etc/resolv.conf"   "dig host.example.com"  check the "server" statement
[12:21] <blackalegator> fmauro, wait how do u comment out in fstab?
[12:21] <wols> ronin___: apt-cache search libgtk |grep dev
[12:21] <dr_willis> ronin___:  via the package manager tools...
[12:21] <jane-> wolfs well. i use dsl company
[12:21] <wilsonBR> jane look your resolve.conf .. u use ubuntu, hight/
[12:21] <wilsonBR> ?
[12:21] <blackalegator> fmauro, soz dump
[12:21] <linuxR> hi everyone, I have a strange problem with ubuntu 11.04 and a memory upgrade making the system -very- slow, can someone help?
[12:21] <blackalegator> fmauro, done
[12:21] <fmauro> blackalegator, because the script mounts the share now
[12:21] <klevison> lotuspsychje, how can I do it?
[12:22] <blackalegator> fmauro, okay, where do I put it?
[12:22] <wols> jane-: it has nothing to do with a "dsl company" but the router. some of them show what public dns they use, some don't
[12:22] <jane-> wols ok.
[12:22] <jane-> llutz iam on windows atm.
[12:22] <fmauro> /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/12-cifsmount  (root rights req)
[12:22] <fmauro> blackalegator, /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/12-cifsmount  (root rights req)
[12:23] <wols> llutz: typical home routers bring their own caching DNS proxy. so you never see the ISP dns server
[12:23] <DariousBlount> Can you make parameters follow midi envelope clips with jack audio?
[12:23] <tim167> hi, should I upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 or not?
[12:23] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: I'll be playing sauerbraten, tell me if you get anywhere :)
[12:23] <dr_willis> tim167:  if you want the features.. yes.. if not.. no.
[12:23] <ThinkT510> tim167: only you can answer that
[12:23] <jane-> wols it says . Primary DNS Server 	<IP_ADDRESS>
[12:23] <jane-> Secondary DNS Server 	<IP_ADDRESS>
[12:23] <linuxR> does somebody know how to completely disable graphical console modes in ubuntu 11.04?
[12:23] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, it's installing right now. could take a few . hf I'll be around as well
[12:24] <blackalegator> fmauro, done! Now it shoukd work?
[12:24] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: thanks :)
[12:24] <jane-> wols so how do i get on there websit?
[12:24] <dr_willis> linuxR:  'graphical console modes' ? you mean you want a normal console and not a 'framebuffer' enabled console?
[12:24] <tim167> dr_willis: well, the thing is I don't know if i really want to switch to the new desktop manager, Unity...
[12:24] <fmauro> blackalegator, try disconnecting and the share should vanish. or even better, try rebooting to see if it works properly
[12:24] <lotuspsychje> klevison: check something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8j1Fo2KRZM
[12:24] <linuxR> dr_willis, exactly...as simple as possible, no special graphics mode at all
[12:25] <ThinkT510> tim167: download a livecd and see if you like it before deciding to upgrade
[12:25] <blackalegator> fmauro Thank you sooo much!
[12:25] <tim167> dr_willis: on the other hand I don't want to be stuck in this version forever...
[12:25] <linuxR> I have a situatio where special console modes appear to make the system -very- slow
[12:25] <fmauro> blackalegator, working?
[12:25] <dr_willis> linuxR:  theres the 'text' and 'nofb' kernel boot options..  first one disables gdm, framebuffer, and othr stuff i belive.  second one. may or may not work now a days..
[12:25] <jane-> wols so how do i get on there websit?
[12:26] <ThinkT510> tim167: there is still a gnome classic mode in 11.04 if you need it
[12:26] <linuxR> dr_willis, I'll try to nofb option
[12:26] <dr_willis> linuxR:  and yes. the framebuffer can make the consoles slow.    (or slower at least)
[12:26] <tim167> ThinkT510: ah ok interesting...and have you tried that?
[12:26] <ThinkT510> tim167: but i think gnome2 will be fully removed in 11.10 and replaced with gnome3
[12:26] <jane-> my router says Primary DNS Server 	<IP_ADDRESS>
[12:26] <jane-> Secondary DNS Server 	<IP_ADDRESS> ,    how can i know which public dns the ip refers, whats the name of that dns 2. how can i make my own dns and get the list of all the websites of the world?
[12:27] <ThinkT510> tim167: no, can't stand gnome or unity, i'm an xfce user
[12:27] <phoque_uni> can I also define something that will run first when I turn of the machine?
[12:27] <tim167> ThinkT510: ah I see, ok thanks for the feedback
[12:28] <hagus> I deleted many of my ubuntu programs by doing sudo apt-get remove python.
[12:28] <hagus> How do I get everything back?
[12:28] <llutz> jane-: those are rwp-cns02.ptcl.net + ns1.ptcl.net
[12:28] <iceroot> hagus: sudo apt-get install pidgnin
[12:28] <dr_willis> dinesh_:  theres differnt alt-tab 'switchers' you can use and configure by using the 'ccsm' tool in unity/gnome..
[12:28] <leejohn> good day guys, anyone use apt-cacher here?
[12:28] <dr_willis> !ccsm | dinesh_
[12:28] <hagus> thanks iceroot :)
[12:28] <ThinkT510> tim167: i've seen plenty of people have problems updating though, so i would err on the side of caution and reccomend a fresh install
[12:28] <hagus> phew
[12:28] <leejohn> apt-cacher-import.pl doesn't seems to be recursive
[12:29] <ronin___> we have not any libgtk
[12:29] <tim167> ThinkT510: ok, so my intuition to ask here first was justified ;)
[12:29] <hagus> iceroot - my console seems to have gone as well :(
[12:29] <leejohn> i'm trying to import the package on mounted CDROM to apt-cacher but it only find 19 files
[12:29] <dr_willis> !find libgtk
[12:30] <dr_willis> ronin___:  seems to be several of the,
[12:30] <ThinkT510> tim167: definitely, i'm glad there are more sensible people out there :)
[12:30] <linuxR> dr_willis, nofb appears to work for the first instants, but during the boot process ubuntu changes the console  mode again...do you know how I can avoid this?
[12:30] <ronin___> dr_willis: what do u mean?
[12:30] <dr_willis> linuxR:  i think thats managed by some service /etc/init/console-setup.conf   perhaps.
[12:30] <dr_willis> ronin___:  package manager shows numerous libgtk-* packages...
[12:31] <dr_willis> linuxR:  i tend to use the 'text' option and just start gdm as needed.  that may disable more then just the nofb
[12:32] <Pici> ronin___: perhaps if you explained why you need a libgtk package, we could better assist you in helping you find what you need.
[12:32] <linuxR> dr_willis, will try that
[12:32] <oslinux23_> hello guys
[12:32] <ronin___> Pici: I wanna write a program for gnome application as my university project
[12:33] <klevison> lotuspsychje, is there a error before .. but is too fast
[12:33] <jane-> llutz how do you know and how can i know
[12:33] <klevison> I cant take printscreen
[12:33] <klevison> :(
[12:33] <lotuspsychje> klevison: what you think its about now?
[12:33] <llutz> jane-: dig -x dns.ip.adr
[12:33] <oslinux23_> I have 4,5 Gigs free and 4 megabytes available. Any help?
[12:33] <klevison> lotuspsychje, I cant read it
[12:33] <klevison> is too fast
[12:34] <dr_willis> ronin___:  theres mostlikely a great many -dev packages you need to install to compile a gnome app.
[12:34] <jane-> llutz any windows command you know fo r that or any external web?
[12:34] <lotuspsychje> klevison: you have other Os on dvd/cdrom to test?
[12:34] <llutz> jane-: no, i don't. you realise that this is #ubuntu support chat?
[12:35] <linuxR> dr_willis, the "text" option does not seem to have had any effect
[12:35] <dr_willis> ronin___:  the 'build-dep' option to apt-get will pull in all needed dev and other packages to compile a specific app. it can be used to install most of the -dev stuff o may need.
[12:35] <dr_willis> ronin___:   sudo apt-get build-dep  gedit
[12:35] <ronin___> dr_willis: could you help me
[12:35] <dr_willis> ronin___:  i just did. :)
[12:35] <linuxR> after having wasted days on this, I think I'll just give it up, destroy (!) this box and buy a new one.
[12:36] <dr_willis> linuxR:  odd. it definatly does a lot here.. has for the last 2 releases...  disabled gdm, disables pymouth, and other stuff gets turned off
[12:36] <llutz> jane-: http://www.dnswatch.info   seems to do it online
[12:36] <ronin___> I installed gedit
[12:36] <dr_willis> linuxR:  do you have a /dev/fb0 ?  (frame buffer device)
[12:37] <oslinux23_> any command to view the frame buffer ?
[12:37] <dr_willis> ronin___:  the build-dep option installs the packages needed to compile (for example in this case) gedit. same packaves would be needed for most gnome/gtk apps
[12:37] <linuxR> dr_willis, I see now that gdm was not started, but the console was still set to FB
[12:37] <ronin___> we didn't have any build-deb
[12:37] <klevison> lotuspsychje, whai I'll test
[12:38] <sweet> i coudnt install any software "Media change: please insert the disc labeled  'APTonCD for ubuntu lucid - i386 (2011-07-25 03:44) CD1' in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter" ?
[12:38] <dr_willis> ronin___:   sudo apt-get build-dep  gedit        <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<   this is the command i am refering to.
[12:38] <sweet> but i don have APTon CD now
[12:39] <ronin___> ok
[12:39] <dr_willis> linuxR:  it could be im using 'text nofb nosplash noquiet'  (some may be redundant)
[12:39] <fmauro> sweet, you have to remove the cd line from your sources file
[12:39] <GreenDance> Hi
[12:39] <fmauro> sweet, do you know how?
[12:39] <ronin___> E: Must specify at least one package to check builddeps for
[12:40] <ronin___> I've got this error
[12:40] <dr_willis> ronin___:  thats why i gave 'gedit' as an example.........
[12:41] <sweet> fmauro:i think umount/media/APTonCD/
[12:41] <sweet> fmauro:but idon have any cd now
[12:41] <hagus> icehost - any idea how I can get console reinstalled?
[12:42] <fmauro> sweet, not quite. Do you have an entry System>Administration>Software Sources in your main menu
[12:42] <sweet> yes
[12:42] <sweet> fmauro:yes
[12:42] <fmauro> sweet, open it
[12:42] <ronin___> dr_willis: installing be done
[12:43] <sweet> fmauro:then?
[12:43] <aetas> Any of you guys tried running on an encrypted disk?  Curious about some opinions on how the speed loss is vs normal
[12:43] <fmauro> sweet, there should be an entry at the bottom of the first tab. the cd should be listed there, uncheck the box
[12:43] <Ricaz> Hello, I'm having trouble with GRUB2. First, Windows wiped out grub so I reinstalled it. Now, the Ubuntu entry in my grub doesn't work (it gives me a black screen basically), but the Windows entry works fine. I can boot into my Ubuntu installation by using command line (linux /vmlinuz, initrd /initrd.img, boot). Any idea why my Ubuntu entry won't let me boot?
[12:43] <hagus> Anyone any idea how to reinstall console?
[12:43] <hagus> is there an alternative that I can download?
[12:44] <alex--> what is console?
[12:44] <dr_willis> hagus:  clarify what you mean.. how did you 'uninstall' console  exactly?
[12:44] <hagus> the terminal
[12:44] <hagus> I used sudo apt-get remove python
[12:44] <fmauro> hagus, kde or gnome terminal?
[12:44] <dr_willis> theres dozen of terminal apps, xterm, rxvt and so on....
[12:44] <hagus> It removed half my software
[12:44] <dr_willis> xterm is not  the 'console' techincally speaking.. :)
[12:44] <dr_willis> hagus:  reinstall ubuntu-desktop package for starters
[12:44] <hagus> The ubuntu default that is for automatically installing on windows - gnome, I think.
[12:45] <hagus> How do I do that dr_willis?
[12:45] <dr_willis> hagus:  at the actual 'console' on alt-ctrl-f1 is one location..
[12:46] <hagus> ah thanks
[12:46] <dr_willis> or try alt-f2 and run 'xterm' i think its isntgalled bydefault also
[12:46] <sweet> fmauro:thnks it should be work now
[12:46]  * hagus needs to write this down.
[12:46] <fmauro> sweet, cool
[12:46] <dr_willis> its rather fundamental stuff hagus  :) once you start using it.
[12:46] <hagus> icehost mentioned pidgnin or something like that.
[12:47] <fmauro> hagus, ctrl-alt-f7 will return you to gnome
[12:47] <dr_willis> alt-ctrl-f1 thoruhg f6 are the 'consoles' F7 gets you back to X in most cases
[12:47] <sweet> fmauro:is ther any  smart photo editor for websit logo in ubuntu with out gimp like photoshope in windows?
[12:47] <hagus> Ok, thanks folks. You have have been a great help
[12:47] <dr_willis> Pidgin is an Im client.. no idea how that would be related to a 'xterminal' program
[12:47] <dr_willis> No idea why you would want to remove python either... :)
[12:48] <fmauro> sweet, you can either try gimp for photo-editing, or inkscape
[12:48] <fmauro> sweet, inkscape is vector graphics
[12:48] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: how's it going? :)
[12:48] <hagus> I was trying to make a fresh install of python, dr_willis.
[12:48] <hagus> Did not realise that so many things depended on it.
[12:49] <dr_willis> hagus:  so you managed to some how break python?  apt-get has a --reinstall option.... :)
[12:49] <fmauro> An_Ony_Moose, Debian installer is done. now booting and following "that thing you sent me" :D
[12:49] <dr_willis> reinstalling things.. i find often dose not fix things like people are used to in 'windows'
[12:50] <hagus> so if I did sudo apt-get --reinstall when I get to ctrl-alt-f1, things should begin to get back to normal?
[12:50] <An_Ony_Moose> fmauro: thanks!
[12:50] <dr_willis> hagus:  i would install ubuntu-desktop first...
[12:50] <hagus> ah
[12:50] <hagus> noted
[12:50] <dr_willis> then read some apt-get docs.... :)
[12:50] <dr_willis> im not sure i even want to ask how you broke python.
[12:50]  * hagus takes the plunge and presses ctrl_alt_f1
[12:50]  * hagus takes the plunge and presses ctrl_alt_f2
[12:51] <dr_willis> hagus:  there are irc clients for the consoles also..
[12:51] <zamba> i'm looking for a way to stream video on my web page that doesn't require flash.. what can be used for that?
[12:51] <hagus> Oh, so I can stay here even if I feel that I am on the other side of the moon  :)
[12:52] <hagus> Thanks, dr_willis :)
[12:52] <DistroJockey> hagus: and it's Alt+F7 to get back to X (usually)
[12:52] <hagus> ok, ty DistroJockey :)
[12:52] <DistroJockey> hagus: np :)
[12:52] <dr_willis> zamba:  ogg, webm, dozens of video codecs out there that can stream but they may need a server.. or you just let the people down,oad the video.
[12:53] <ronin___> dr_willis: Thank you very much
