[09:18] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U: , I had a corrupted usb thumb drive and I wanted to recover the file , what should I do ?
[09:19] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : hope you have time to guide me , thank you
[09:20] <Jigal> how do i get into a sudo terminal cmd line?
[09:20] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: First find the device name, "sudo blkid" will list information about all of your partitions, hopefully from that you can determine which device (like /dev/sdb1) is your flash drive.
[09:21] <ibnarrashid> Jigal: you want to start a terminal as root or get into the root account while in a terminal?
[09:21] <Jigal> ibnarrashid: the last option
[09:21] <llutz> Jigal: "sudo -i"
[09:21] <mark105> does ubuntu support usb cdroms to install off? im trying to install ubuntu on a mini itx which i cant get a cdrom into but it keeps erroring
[09:21] <iceroot> mark105: yes
[09:22] <mark105> hum
[09:22] <Jordan_U> mark105: Yes, though your BIOS must support it as well (to be able to boot at all)
[09:22] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : there's too much drive, i cannot identified which one is my thumb drive since all use those weird UDID
[09:22] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: Can you pastebin the output?
[09:22] <ader10> I'm having trouble holding packages from being updated
[09:23] <mark105> yeh it boots it fine and loads up but part way through loading i get all these read errors which is weird cause ive used this cd many times before
[09:23] <mark105> might have to do a media check
[09:23] <ader10> I run "sudo aptitude hold packages" but the update manager insists on updating them
[09:23] <sbach89> Im having problems with me email server. Everytime I send an email from my gmail to myself at my domain I get a bounceback in gmail stating relay access denied
[09:24] <llutz> ader10: "aptitude search ~ahold" still lists them?
[09:24] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : http://pastebin.com/K5H80gTR
[09:24] <Oer> sbach89, did you enable pop3/imap in the preferences gmail online ?
[09:24] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : i had a lot of partition so it's kinda confuse even for me
[09:24] <ader10> llutz: it lists 2 of them (4 total that I selected to hold)
[09:25] <ader10> It doesn't list libxmlrpc-c3 or libxmlrpc-core-c3
[09:25] <llutz> ader10: you have to set them all on hold, something went wrong
[09:25] <ader10> But the update manager still wants to update the 2 that aptitude search ~ahold prints
[09:25] <sbach89> 0er: I'm just sending an email from my gmail to my domain and that's the error. but yes, pop and imap are enabled in gmail.
[09:26] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: sdc is the only drive with only one partition (sdc1), and it's using vfat. That means that it's likely your flash drive.
[09:26] <llutz> ader10: hmmm, thats weird
[09:27] <Jigal> how do i as a user become a member of www-data in order to be able to change files in my webroot?
[09:27] <llutz> Jigal: sudo adduser $user www-data
[09:27] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : oh , so what about my output drive hard disk ? /media/disk-1/
[09:27] <ader10> llutz: if it helps you help me, I compiled the packages and installed them with checkinstall
[09:27] <nadir> ader10: try 'echo <package> hold|dpkg --set-selections
[09:28] <Jigal> llutz: thanks and how do i get back from my sudo terminal into my user terminal?
[09:28] <llutz> Jigal: ctrl-d
[09:28] <Vroomfondle> or type "exit"
[09:29] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: /media/disk-1/ Is what's called a mount point, when you have a device (like /dev/sdc1) and you want to access the files on its filesystem you mount the device to a directory like /media/disk-1/ making the files accessible through that directory.
[09:29] <eevar2> how do i go about identifying the app(s) responsible for io (wait) spikes?
[09:29] <glaucous> Where should I put commands which need sudo, at boot time? Autostart.
[09:29] <eevar2> 8.04.4
[09:29] <ader10> nadir: Thank you!!
[09:30] <llutz> glaucous: /etc/rc.local
[09:30] <glaucous> llutz, and I don't need to put sudo in front of it?
[09:30] <llutz> glaucous: without sudo, will be run as root
[09:30] <glaucous> llutz, okay great, thanks
[09:30] <ader10> now on to my last problem (I'm so desperate, I posted a forum thread) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1535426
[09:30] <crackhead_> hi - trouble with gtk-recordmydesktop. the program crashed, and yet there has been that rectangle which indicates the part of the screen to be selected for recording still! the little rectangle has remained on my monitor over part of the workspace for days! ha. how do i get rid of that rectangle without rebooting or restarting x?
[09:31] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : sorry i dont quite get it ? I already mount my /media/disk-1/ and make it a directory to output the usb thumb drive  , folder /USB8GBBK
[09:32] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : so what should I change on the mount drive ? so I can output it ?
[09:32] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: ddrescue workes with the device itself, backing up the entire partition bit for bit, so you want to use the device name as the input and the device should not be mounted while you're running ddrescue.
[09:33] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : oh , so now I need to find my /media/disk-1/ drive device name sda something right ?
[09:34] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: The device name is /dev/sdc1
[09:34] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: Backing up a bit, can you explain what exactly happened to your flash drive and why you think ddrescue will help?
[09:34] <AleksiK^> Hi!
[09:34] <AleksiK^> I tried to upgrade 8.04 to 10.04
[09:34] <AleksiK^> upgrade went well but when ill reboot
[09:34] <AleksiK^> ubuntu wont start

[09:35] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : i am also quite confuse , previously running well with the flash drive , not knowing what happen it get corrupted , some file and directory cannot be open , and it all of them had a Lock sign
[09:35] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : but when I ls the log file it said ls: cannot access ./Files/File 31-2: Input/output error ls: cannot open directory ./Files/File 31-2: Input/output error
[09:36] <john38> Can Anybody help me out
[09:36] <AleksiK^> init: ureadahed main process (1915) terminated with status 5
[09:36] <odb|fidel> john38: try it
[09:37] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: Can you pastebin the output of "dmesg"? That will help determine if it's a hardware problem.
[09:37] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : i am also quite confuse , previously running well with the flash drive , not knowing what happen it get corrupted , some file and directory cannot be open , and it all of them had a Lock sign

[09:37] <nickon> i have openchrome driver installed on my system but i cant see its effects
[09:37] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : dmesg???
[09:37] <glaucous> What are the default permissions for files in /tmp? Yesterday I added that tmpfs was mounted on /tmp each boot. /tmp folder got drwxrwxrwt, but I got an error message saying something about permissions inside /tmp. Error: "/var/tmp/kdecache-glaucous" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.
[09:38] <glaucous> And this as well, Error: "/tmp/kde-glaucous" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.
[09:38] <llutz> glaucous: 1777
[09:38] <glaucous> llutz, do I have to set the permissions each boot?
[09:38] <llutz> glaucous: ups, 1777 is /tmp
[09:38] <AleksiK^> init: ureadahed main process (1915) terminated with status 5
[09:38] <john38> any help
[09:38] <glaucous> llutz, in fstab that is
[09:38] <llutz> glaucous: if /tmp has 1777 root:root it should work fine
[09:39] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: It's a command which prints error messages from the kernel.
[09:39] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : i dont know much I just wanted to backup all the files out that all i wanted to do , then will format it
[09:39] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : how do I use this dmesg command ?
[09:39] <glaucous> llutz, I believe this is 1777? drwxrwxrwt  11 root root
[09:40] <odb|fidel> john38: tried redownloading the file?
[09:40] <llutz> glaucous: right. i wonder about your error above, /tmp/kde-$user always should be owned by $user, not root
[09:40] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: Just run "dmesg", or if you want to make it easier to pastebin then install pastebinit (sudo apt-get install pastebinit) and run "dmesg | pastebinit"
[09:40] <glaucous> llutz, I think I found it though
[09:40] <thehizz> hi - trouble with gtk-recordmydesktop. the program crashed, and yet there has been that rectangle which indicates the part of the screen to be selected for recording still! the little rectangle has remained on my monitor over part of the workspace for days! ha. how do i get rid of that rectangle without rebooting or restarting x?
[09:40] <john38> yeah several times from diffrent links
[09:40] <john38> same thing
[09:40] <glaucous> llutz, it's only when I run (kate in this scenario) as sudo. Otherwise there's no error
[09:40] <llutz> glaucous: use gksudo, not sudo for gui-apps
[09:41] <john38> its a modem driver
[09:41] <llutz> glaucous: or kdesudo
[09:41] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : do I need to specified which directory my flash drive was ?
[09:41] <glaucous> llutz, kdesudo, thanks, always wondered what it was called.
[09:41] <ader10> My question is here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1535426 Please help :)
[09:41] <llutz> glaucous: or was it kdesu? try it
[09:41] <ader10> kdesu
[09:42] <glaucous> llutz, first one worked. And now I don't get any errors.
[09:42] <glaucous> llutz, what's the big difference between sudo and gk/kde-sudo?
[09:42] <llutz> glaucous: sudo won't set x-permissions right in some cases. one case was your issue
[09:43] <Oer> ader10, '.. but where the guide uses /bin/null I used /dev/null ...´ why ?
[09:43] <llutz> glaucous: or better: file permissions if X is involved
[09:43] <Oer> dev/null is not a folder
[09:43] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: No, dmesg will print all kernel messages since boot (there will be a lot of output).
[09:43] <glaucous> llutz, alright, perfect. So I should always use kdesudo when using GUI apps? Not when using commands and scripts?
[09:43] <ader10> Oer: neither is /bin/null
[09:43] <Kerem>  is there any good way to remake the shadowfiles from the /etc/passwd /etc/group and /etc/shadow
[09:43] <llutz> glaucous: right, sudo only for non-gui-apps
[09:43] <ader10> Oer: I'm pretty sure the author meant to use /dev/null, but if you think he did mean /bin/null I can try it again
[09:44] <ader10> I doubt that's the cause of the problem, though
[09:44] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : so what does it have to do with the flash drive error ? will dmesg corrupted my kernal ?
[09:44] <john38> ??
[09:44] <glaucous> llutz, thanks, now I'll try out if my sudo program starts up nicely. Thanks a lot :)
[09:44] <glaucous> llutz, oh by the way. /etc/rc.local is only run at boot, not at login right?
[09:44] <llutz> glaucous: right
[09:46] <wxr3516> Jordan_U: dmesg prints all messages in the kernel message ring buffer. so if kernel messages exceed the size of that buffer, the oldest messages will be removed.
[09:46] <john38> anybody else help me?
[09:46] <ayush27> hello i need immediate help.
[09:46] <Thunderstorm> ayush27, what kind of help?
[09:47] <Jordan_U> wxr3516: I know, but that's not really relevant in this instance.
[09:47] <Jordan_U> !dmesg | ubuntunewbie
[09:47] <wxr3516> Jordan_U: alright
[09:48] <ayush27> I need to run linux on my desktop for academic reasons. I'm an IT engineering student. the problem is that my PC is a 700 MHz pentium 3 with 384 MB RAM. which version of ubuntu shall I use?
[09:48] <Traveler9> hi , whats the difference of i386 and amd64 install ?
[09:48] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : ok , so it wouldnt do any harm right ? can I output to a text file ?
[09:48] <Jordan_U> ayush27: I'd go with lubuntu.
[09:48] <jpl> john38: what's the output of "file filename.tgz" ?
[09:48] <llutz> ayush27: lubuntu could be a start
[09:48] <ayush27> I need to run the GUI (the X windows graphical version, not only the command version)
[09:48] <iceroot> !amd64 | lekstok
[09:49] <john38> intel-537ep_secure-227390.2.tgz
[09:49] <bazhang> ayush27, lxde (lubuntu-desktop) uses the GUI
[09:49] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: Correct, it just displays messages and has no other effects. You can save the output to a file by running "dmesg > /path/to/file.txt"
[09:49] <tarek_> hello everybody, my network manager has disapeared!
[09:49] <thehizz> Can anyone help me get rid of the residual selection rectangle from gtk-recordmydesktop, which crashed??? :)
[09:49] <lekstok> ubottu sow intel based is not fully supported ? just amd ?
[09:49] <ayush27> is lubuntu as simple and straight forward as ubuntu? I also need to work on the BASH shell
[09:50] <iceroot> lekstok: read the wiki-artikel what amd64 is
[09:50] <tarek_> i am using Wicd but would like to go back to network manager
[09:50] <st__> i need bubuntu help please
[09:50] <bazhang> lekstok, amd64 fully supports intel64
[09:50] <iceroot> lekstok: intel is also supported
[09:50] <ader10> My question is here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1535426 Please help if you can
[09:50] <Jordan_U> lekstok: No, intel adopted AMD's 64 bit architecture.
[09:50] <lekstok> i'm new to linux ^^
[09:50] <bazhang> st__, bubuntu? you mean ubuntu surely
[09:50] <st__> it doesn't boot all of the sudden
[09:50] <jpl> john38: from a cmd line, type: file intel-537ep_secure-227390.2.tgz and give us the output
[09:50] <llutz> ayush27: it uses a simpler desktop-environment, but yes its uasable. bash comes by default
[09:50] <iceroot> lekstok: amd64 is also for windows
[09:51] <lekstok> iceroot : i know
[09:51] <Kwpolska_> okay.
[09:51] <ayush27> alright. thanks llutz. where can I get lubuntu?
[09:51] <olivier_93> :)
[09:51] <llutz> lubuntu.net ayush27

[09:52] <jpl> john38: try gunzip intel-537ep_secure-227390.2.tgz
[09:52] <iceroot> karlo__: you can upgrade from the internet or alternate-cd no need to reinstall
[09:52] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: Ok, that looks like it's just filesystem errors, not hardware errors. ddrescue is really for rescuing data from dying hardware.

[09:54] <john38> i got another modem maybe you could help me with that
[09:54] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : oh , so want does the log for dmeg explain means ? showing it's file system error ? [ 2963.691086]     fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 11925059)
[09:54] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : wanted to learn more :)
[09:54] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: fsck will hopefully be able to fix the filesystem. Try running "sudo umount /dev/sdc1" then "sudo fsck -y /dev/sdc1"
[09:54] <glaucous> llutz, okay it did not work very well with rc.local. First of all one of the softwares is a GUI application which underclocks my GPU, so I guess I need to run it at logon?
[09:54] <john38> Creative Modem Blaster v.92 Pci DI5633
[09:54] <llutz> glaucous: yes, you cannot use rc.local for those type of apps
[09:55] <glaucous> llutz, okay, so what is my options?
[09:55] <lekstok> what's the best version of linux you can get ?
[09:55] <llutz> glaucous: gnome or kde?
[09:55] <glaucous> llutz, kde
[09:55] <elyob> Hi, trying to rsync a number of data folders under projects in my apache folders, but trying to keep the structure, I'm having trouble ... At the moment am trying to copy "/var/www/*/data" ->  "/backup/" ... can I put something like  "/backup/[1]/" to try and keep the directory name found by the *?
[09:55] <ayush27> I just wanna confirm again. Lubuntu 10.04 (graphical version) will run fine on 700 MHz Pentium 3 with 384 MB RAM?
[09:55] <tarek_> hello everybody, my network manager has disapeared!
[09:55] <tarek_> i am using Wicd but would like to go back to network manager
[09:55] <glaucous> llutz, there is an app called Autostart in KDE, but I'm not sure how well sudo will work there?
[09:55] <st__> ayush27, yes, but you can hardly run a browser there
[09:56] <glaucous> llutz, or kdesudo for that matter
[09:56] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: It means that something is wrong with the filesystem, possibly from removing the flash drive without unmounting it first. I don't know the details of exactly what "invalid cluster chain" means, but fsck is the way to go for trying to fix the problem.
[09:56] <llutz> glaucous: if oyu use "kdesudo cmd" it should ask for password after login
[09:56] <st__> it doesn't boot and sits doing nothing, can someone help please??
[09:56] <lekstok> ignore :p
[09:56] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : done with fdisk http://pastebin.com/TvdYH71u
[09:57] <ayush27> st__: so which version of ubuntu would you suggest? I would need to use standard applications like a browser
[09:57] <Jordan_U> st__: Absolutely no output after the BIOS screens?
[09:57] <glaucous> llutz, I'll try it
[09:58] <st__> ayush27, ubuntu won't do, you need some mini distro
[09:58] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : what should I do next ?
[09:58] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: Ok, looks good. Try "sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /media/disk-1/" and see if you can access your files now.
[09:59] <llutz> ayush27: it depends on your definition of "fine". it will run, but to run fast you'll need more RAM
[09:59] <john38> Somebody help me
[09:59] <Jordan_U> ayush27: I disagree with st__, I think that lubuntu will run fine on that hardware.
[09:59] <llutz> ayush27: and things like firefox etc could be a pain
[09:59] <st__> Jordan_U, there's text: mountall: Filesystem could not be mounted: /mnt/music

[10:02] <Jigal> how can i see of which user group i am a member of?
[10:02] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: If there are some files you'd still like to recover you can try a program called "photorec", but if they're not important it may be more trouble than it's worth.
[10:02] <l000> hello good afternoon. i cannot install xfce.i want to use desktop that is less resources.i have 1gb ram only. sudo apt-get install xfce wont work

[10:02] <ikonia> oops
[10:02] <ader10> I can't find out how to mark a thread as solved O_o
[10:03] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: If you do want to use photorec though you shouldn't write anything to the flash drive untill you do.
[10:03] <l000> im using lucid and sudo apt-get install xfce is not working.
[10:03] <ader10> ah, got it
[10:03] <john38> Anybody availabe

[10:04] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : so I am trying to add something into the flash drive see whether it works
[10:04] <john38> i have Creative Modem Blaster v.92 PCI DI5633 trying to find closed driver
[10:04] <lekstok> if i download the amd64 will it work on my intel based pc ?
[10:04] <Jordan_U> lekstok: If it's a 64 bit processor, yes.
[10:04] <l000> when i do "sudo apt-get install xfce" the reply is E: Couldn't find package xfce
[10:04] <cpf> lekstok, If your intel isbit, yes

[10:05] <l000> how to install xfce desktop?less resources / consumption of ram
[10:05] <iceroot> lekstok: core2duo is amd64
[10:05] <john38> Somebody help me?:
[10:05] <Jordan_U> st__: Try booting a liveCD and commenting out the /mnt/music entry in your /etc/fstab
[10:05] <iceroot> l000: xfce is suching the same resources as gnome, try lxde
[10:05] <lekstok> it's a T6600
[10:05] <DvD> i'm doing a customized live cd and when it comes the part of:  /etc/init.d/gdm start   Itreturns me this: Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8) utility, e.g. service gdm start
[10:05] <DvD> Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an Upstart job, you may also use the start(8) utility, e.g. start gdm
[10:06] <st__> so I cannot skip this errror??
[10:06] <l000> iceroot : less resources to use and low ram to use?ill use lxde?
[10:06] <iceroot> l000: sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop  to install lxde
[10:06] <Jordan_U> st__: There may be a way to, but I don't know it off hand (thogh I've never looked)
[10:06] <l000> iceroot : i just want browser firefox,xchat and terminal thats all.so sluggish when i use gnome.always freezing.lucid
[10:06] <elyob> Hi, trying to rsync a number of data folders under projects in my apache folders, but trying to keep the structure, I'm having trouble ... At the moment am trying to copy "/var/www/*/data" ->  "/backup/" ... can I put something like  "/backup/[1]/" to try and keep the directory name found by the *?
[10:06] <lekstok> iceroot whats the difference of the dvd iso and the cd iso ? is there more data or something ?
[10:06] <ibnarrashid> l000: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop if you still want xfce
[10:06] <l000> iceroot : in lxde i can use firefox,terminal and xchat?
[10:07] <glaucous> Is there a way to start a program minimized?
[10:07] <Kwpolska> lekstok: on dvd you find more useless packages than on cd
[10:07] <iceroot> lekstok: yes the dvd contains more software, the same software you get with apt-get in newer version, so use the cd
[10:07] <iceroot> l000: sure
[10:07] <Kwpolska> and the best thing is, you can use it for installing not up-to-date packages!

[10:09] <gonzoism> yep. :)
[10:09] <lekstok> if i enter the cd it installs auto
[10:09] <tarek_> i am using Wicd but would like to go back to network manager please :)
[10:09] <lekstok> boot screen coms up an begins installing
[10:09] <iceroot> lekstok: not the normal ubuntu-cd
[10:09] <lekstok> yes it does
[10:09] <iceroot> lekstok: no
[10:09] <lekstok> its an original
[10:10] <lekstok> i ordered that cd
[10:10] <lekstok> from the site of ubuntu
[10:10] <iceroot> !download | lekstok
[10:10] <Jigal> something is weird i am a member of the www-data group but i am not able to go to a dir which is owned by www-data how can that be?
[10:10] <iceroot> lekstok: that is the normal cd
[10:10] <john38> Anybody??
[10:11] <tarek_> hello everybody, my network manager has disapeared! how can i bring it back please?
[10:11] <iceroot> !anyone | john38
[10:11] <gonzoism> lekstok, I've had that happen before, with the original cds.  What are you wanting it to do ?
[10:11] <DarsVaeda> does someone know a nice guide to tor configuration? i especially look for setting ip last time and restricting ips to regions
[10:12] <john38> i did ubottu TWice!!
[10:12] <john38> i have Creative Modem Blaster v.92 PCI DI5633 trying to find closed driver
[10:12] <gonzoism> DarsVaeda, have you checked the one out on torproject.org ?
[10:12] <astrocub> !fsck
[10:12] <lekstok> iceroot sow what you are saying that the original cd is not good ?
[10:12] <john38> Somebody help me?:
[10:13] <DarsVaeda> @gonzoism: actually not, i'll do thx
[10:13] <gonzoism> lekstok, if he is, he is wrong.  I've had it do that before.  what is the problem ?  are you wanting live-cd mode or something ?
[10:13] <gonzoism> DarsVaeda, :)  I hope it helps.
[10:14] <lekstok> i enter the cd  gonzoism  and it boots auto the installation
[10:14] <lekstok> i cant enter startx either
[10:14] <gonzoism> DarsVaeda, if you can write a tutorial about what you are doing, it would probably help the project.  There seems to be too little user contributed howto's and info out there.  :)
[10:14] <john38> thats not a question
[10:14] <Jigal> something is weird i am a member of the www-data group but i am not able to go to a dir which is owned by www-data how can that be?
[10:14] <gonzoism> lekstok, right....   but are you wanting it to do something else ?
[10:14] <gonzoism> lekstok, I mean, is this a problem ?
[10:14] <lekstok> yes
[10:14] <lekstok> yes :p i want it in a other language
[10:15] <DarsVaeda> i'll see
[10:15] <gonzoism> lekstok, ok...   maybe you are wanting to run the OS from
[10:15] <gonzoism> lekstok, oh
[10:15] <gonzoism> lekstok, are you watching it while it boots ?
[10:15] <john38> can somebody help me find Creative Modem Blaster v.92 PCI DI5633 closed driver
[10:15] <lekstok>  on my older cd i can choose laguage set up keyboard before installation
[10:15] <lekstok> yes i watched it
[10:16] <lekstok>  the logo of ubuntu coms up and a few square blocks that are loading
[10:16] <gonzoism> lekstok, does the older cd let you choose language on this particular computer ?
[10:16] <lekstok> jep
[10:16] <gonzoism> lekstok,  you might want to crc checksum it or check the image on the cd...   you may have a bad cd.
[10:17] <Jordan_U> lekstok: In the newer CD's the language selection isn't presented untill after X has started, unless you press any key in the first ~ 5 seconds of boot to get to the isolinux boot menu.
[10:17] <gonzoism> lekstok, ^  Jordan_U seems to have your answer.  Try that.  It looks promising. :)
[10:18] <john38> Does anybody know where to find Creative Modem Blaster v.92 PCI DI5633 closed driver
[10:18] <lekstok> Jordan_U so i have to press any key first ?
[10:18] <iflema> john38 have you identified the chipset?
[10:18] <phlak_user> !hi | all
[10:18] <Oer> john38, i used google and found no linux driver, only 1 message pointing @ http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hcf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php but it is a shareware driver, full version is paid
[10:19] <Jordan_U> lekstok: If you want to select a language in the boot menu rather than after X has started, yes. Though selecting a language won't help much if X isn't starting at all.
[10:19] <lekstok> i cant type in startx
[10:19] <john38> thats the full name of driver Creative Modem Blaster v.92 PCI DI5633
[10:19] <john38> i mean modem
[10:19] <lekstok> its starting auto the installation
[10:20] <gonzoism> lekstok, hold down shift while rebooting
[10:20] <l000> iceroot : what to choose? gdm or lxdm? im in Configuring lxdm Default display manager
[10:20] <lekstok> i'll try
[10:20] <iflema> john38 if you can get your hands on an external dialup modem you need no drivers and setup is a breeze.... IF.....
[10:20] <iFrankZ> does somebody know how to install windows xp on linux without any cd? I mean, without any kind of program or file that belongs to Windows XP.
[10:21] <john38> ok this website
[10:21] <john38> is this are thise drivers for Creative Modem Blaster v.92 PCI DI5633
[10:22] <john38> is Conexant the same as Creative what is HCF
[10:22] <lekstok> same thing just starts auto the installation
[10:23] <gonzoism> lekstok, i'll google it for you.
[10:23] <its-me-again> anyone here into linux gaming
[10:23] <lekstok> the purple background coms up and it beginbs installation
[10:24] <its-me-again> i have the perfect solution if you are into linux gaming.
[10:24] <RealEyes> <.<;
[10:24] <gonzoism> let's hear it
[10:24] <RealEyes> whats the solution?
[10:24] <gonzoism> its-me-again,
[10:24] <Maddeth> herro
[10:24] <gonzoism> lekstok, 10.04 ?
[10:25] <its-me-again> gonzoism: yes
[10:25] <lekstok> gonzoism yes
[10:25] <gonzoism> its-me-again, what is the perfect solution ?
[10:25] <iflema> john38 im not sure, the scanmodem tool can identify the chipset.... the model nummber is usually/was usually not enough....
[10:25] <gonzoism> lekstok, netbook version ?
[10:25] <Jordan_U> lekstok: Did you press any key while the screen looked like this: http://jordanu.dyndns.org/tmp/Screenshot-1.png ?
[10:26] <gonzoism> lekstok, The Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Desktop and Netbook CDs feature a new boot interface that is non interactive by default.   To configure advanced boot options, press any key at the first boot screen.
[10:26] <Jigal> something is weird i am a member of the www-data group but i am not able to go to a dir which is owned by www-data how can that be?
[10:26] <RealEyes> does anyone know why autorun will not work on my 10.04?
[10:26] <gonzoism> Jigal, permissions may be wrong....   did you chown -x it ?
[10:27] <glaucous> What was the command to view all mounted devices?
[10:27] <Jigal> gonzoism: chown-x ?????
[10:27] <john38> i got this driver for another modem intel-537ep_secure-227390.2.tgz
[10:27] <john38> but its corrupt
[10:27] <llutz> glaucous: mount
[10:27] <gonzoism> Jigal,  i mean chmod -x   (removing the executable bit from the directory)
[10:27] <glaucous> llutz, oh right. Although I found "df -h", which was what I was looking for :)
[10:27] <iflema> hard work and tears john38, thats the heads up.....
[10:27] <lekstok> Jordan_U nope i don't get that
[10:28] <its-me-again> gon luciod puppy linux puppy 5.1
[10:28] <john38> i know i appreciate your help
[10:28] <lekstok> he is showing direct ubuntu logo with loading blocks
[10:28] <Jigal> gonzoism: how do i do that?
[10:28] <l000> hello i added sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop..something popsup here.what to choose then? coz i dont know...gdm or lxdm?im lucid
[10:28] <john38> maybe you could find stable file
[10:28] <l000> hello i added sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop..something popsup here.what to choose then? coz i dont know...gdm or lxdm?im using lucid
[10:29] <Oer> why is that a gaming solution its-me-again ??
[10:29] <gonzoism> Jigal,   you don't want to do that...   what does ls -l   show for it ?
[10:29] <john38> you said i dont need drivers for external dialup modems
[10:29] <Jordan_U> lekstok: Does your screen go blank for a few seconds? You may not be seeing that scree because your monitor takes a long time to change modes.
[10:29] <iflema> john38 no but you do need a serial port
[10:29] <iflema> john38 or usb to serial adapter
[10:29] <gonzoism> jigal  the drwx---rwx  part is what I'm wondering about
[10:29] <lekstok> Jordan_U yes
[10:30] <its-me-again> gonzoism: lucid puppy puppy 5.1install that to a usb or on hdd. adn its the best solution. lucid puppy is supposed to be designed to use lucid apps. its not to good. but if you try ubuntu games just installing the application without any dependances most should run ( if not get them) adn as its much lighter than ubuntu it rocks
[10:30] <iflema> john38 a serial port on ya computer thats is
[10:30] <Maddeth> l000: depends on what environment you want gnome or lxdm
[10:30] <glaucous> llutz, this is correct to mount a ntfs drive, right? "/dev/sda2	/media/WD 500	ntfs	defaults	0	0" The locations are correct.
[10:30] <lekstok>  but i pressed any key atm it does nothing it just starts the install
[10:30] <its-me-again> Oer: not exactly but thats all its good for
[10:30] <Jordan_U> lekstok: Then press shift a few times after you stop seeing the BIOS screen.
[10:30] <llutz> !ntfs > glaucous  not sure, i don't use ntfs
[10:30] <l000> Maddeth thanks.im using lucid.i think im currently usingE: Couldn't find package xfce gnome..so ill choose lxdm?i want less resources.
[10:30] <Oer> its-me-again, shame shame, all games work on ubuntu, so i do not try your puppy, sorry.
[10:30] <Jigal> gonzoism: talking about the nrka2 dir http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/skp7YKA8
[10:30] <glaucous> ubottu, alright
[10:30] <gonzoism> its-me-again,   sounds good.  thanks for that info.  I'll probably never use it (I don't game...)  but i just learned about lucid puppy.  thanks.
[10:30] <nixjr> i have a 320gb hdd, formatted it using gparted as ext4, it says 298gb total and 4.8gb in use.  can someone explain why there is any data in use, and why it says 298 not 320?
[10:31] <iflema> john38 some pci modem work with less hassel if youve some to choose from?!?!?!?!?!/
[10:31] <gonzoism> Jigal,  i think your permissions are wrong....
[10:31] <its-me-again> oer, gonzoism puppy 5.1 runs better especially on older machines for linux gaming
[10:31] <Maddeth> l000: lxde is a less resource hungry DE than xfce, may be just what you are after
[10:31] <RealEyes> why wont my CDs autorun? :/
[10:31] <iflema> john38 best of luck.... and most where made for windows.... so.... yeah... tears.
[10:32] <Jigal> gonzoism: ok so what do i have to do to get them right?
[10:32] <lekstok> i pressed shift and there is a " - " and it stays that way
[10:32] <lekstok> oink
[10:32] <its-me-again> gonzoism: another thing remember that as lupu is not ubuntu dont install to many ubuntu apps i have broken it seversal times
[10:32] <l000> Maddeth : so if the system boot.what to choose?theres a small bar at the bottom...whats for gdm and lxdm?
[10:32] <gonzoism> Jigal,  see if there is anyone here that is knowledgeable about permissions.  you can paste them this, and tell them the username and group you are using.  drwx------ 8 www-data jigal 4096 2010-07-20 17:32 nrka2
[10:32] <john38> assuming i have an RS-232 serial port i should go with External
[10:32] <Maddeth> l000: not sure I am afraid try choosing lxdm
[10:33] <Maddeth> gdm is for gnome
[10:33] <gonzoism> Jigal,   um.  what is your username and what group are you in ?  maybe I know it.   I'm kinda crappy with permissions though....
[10:34] <lekstok> i even used bt4 and that works perfect
[10:34] <l000> Maddeth : so if i reboot, what to choose?gnmoopenbox?xterm?
[10:34] <mason> hi
[10:34] <iflema> john38 if ya got one laying around definitely..... there a little thin on the ground these days and expensive'ish
[10:35] <olly__> can anyone tell me what the - means in this line of rsyslog configuration? `local0.*  -/mnt/log/pusher/haproxy.log`
[10:35] <nixjr> can anyone help me understand partitioning and file systems etc?
[10:35] <iflema> !who | john38
[10:35] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : Thanks a lot , I think the USB flash drive is fix , now I can copy and delete files inside
[10:35] <tim> Hey. I'm using 'dd' to look at the end of a drive. If I skip=x sectors, a label appears at octal = y. But I need to know how many sectors to skip to make the label appear at octal = 0040000.  I can convert octal to decimal, but how do I convert decimal to sectors?
[10:35] <ubuntunewbie> Thanks a lot  :)
[10:36] <gonzoism> lekstok,   you may have a bad image.  compare bit sums...
[10:36] <Jordan_U> ubuntunewbie: You're welcome.
[10:36] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : :D
[10:36] <john38> iflema: im looking at a USB fax/modem its small connect to computer via usa other end is RJ11
[10:36] <Maddeth> l000: not sure sorry, stuck on windows at the moment at work, so cant have a play or do too much googling at the moment
[10:36] <Jigal> gonzoism: how do i find out my group?
[10:37] <john38> iflema: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16825180014
[10:37] <iflema> john38 the ones with a serial connection are an absolute breeze
[10:38] <lekstok> now it doesnt doing anything at all  oink
[10:38] <gonzoism> Jigal,   maybe chmod ugo+x directory_name will fix that.  that is kinda like using a really big hammer for a tiny nail though....   you may not want those perms on that directory....    like I said, I'm bad with permissions.   you can read about permissions at tldp.org     or google for something explaining permissions.
[10:38] <Jigal> gonzoism:  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/TnEMhfya
[10:38] <gonzoism> Jigal,   groups  command
[10:38] <ubuntunewbie> Jordan_U : gtg so see you then ;)
[10:38] <iflema> john38 its hard to know if the usb is supported in the kernel of via modules.....
[10:38] <Jigal> gonzoism: ???
[10:39] <john38> so the serial port ones dont need drivers
[10:39] <iflema> john38 or via modules not of
[10:39] <john38> ubuntu open source supports it
[10:39] <iflema> john38 no, but do require a serial port, which is commonly not found on new computers
[10:40] <iflema> john38 different beast all together....... Have you posted in the ubuntu forumns?
[10:40] <llutz> olly__: "all messages of facility local0 were logged to /mnt/...."
[10:41] <john38> iflmea: lets say i do have serial port
[10:41] <gonzoism> Jigal,   yah, that is permissions error
[10:41] <gonzoism> Jigal,   see the --- and  ---  parts of the dwrx part ?
[10:41] <iflema> yes john38
[10:41] <Jigal> gonzoism: ok i used your big hammer solutions
[10:41] <gonzoism> Jigal,   did that fix it ?
[10:41] <Jigal> gonzoism: looks like problem solved
[10:42] <progre55> hi people! what's the difference between useradd and adduser? and which one is better to add a valid and independent user that has his own home dir, can be a sudoer and all?
[10:42] <Jigal> gonzoism: not really how can i do the same for all subdirectories
[10:43] <llutz> progre55: both can do that, i prefer adduser
[10:43] <gonzoism> Jigal,   :)   if it is a security concern, you can brush up on the correct chmod 0744 or whatever and correct it any time. :)     maybe chmod -R or chmod -r for recursion.   man chmod, hit the / key, type whatever you are searching for (recursive)
[10:43] <gonzoism> Jigal,  q to quit
[10:43] <iceroot> progre55: adduser
[10:43] <Jigal> gonzoism: can i use that big hammer command also recursively
[10:43] <progre55> llutz: are there any additional options I have to specify in order to do that? or will just saying "adduser username" do it all by default?
[10:43] <mason> hi all, my system uses openchrome driver and has 1 gb ram but still has a higher rate of draw wh?
[10:44] <progre55> well I will ofcourse do the sudoers thing manually
[10:44] <mason> redraw why?
[10:44] <gogeta> progre55: you can do it threw a ui to in admin and users and groups
[10:44] <llutz> progre55: adduser <newuser>          later "sudo adduser newuser admin
[10:44] <iflema> john38 if you type the first few letters of my nick ( ifl )and then press the TAB key it will complete it, avoided typeos.... just in case you need t okeep asking here... it avoids redundancy
[10:44] <progre55> gogeta: that's a server with no UI
[10:45] <gogeta> progre55: set all there premissions groups etc
[10:45] <gogeta> ah
[10:45] <progre55> llutz: thanks
[10:45] <llutz> progre55: try to stick with non-gui apps which are available on most systems
[10:45] <mason> hi all, my system uses openchrome driver and has 1 gb ram but still has a higher rate of redraw why?
[10:45] <gogeta> llutz: server was a good enough answer lol
[10:46] <progre55> llutz: yeah, that's what I do =) and even if I wanted to use the gui, I wouldnt be able to )
[10:46] <gonzoism> Jigal,   i think...  I was telling you how to search the man page for that.  I'll do that for you.  man is great for that kind of stuff
[10:46] <gogeta> progre55: untrue thers some neat trick you can do with fb mode
[10:46] <gogeta> tricks
[10:46] <llutz> gogeta: if you read here for a while you'll see, server doesn't mean "no-gui" for most of the guys :(
[10:46] <gonzoism> Jigal,   yah,  -R     (capital R)
[10:46] <progre55> gogeta: over ssh?
[10:47] <gogeta> progre55: no fb mode is a framebuffer bash
[10:47] <progre55> oh
[10:47] <Zeus__> Hello! I have two HDD on my computer and for my data files I have choose the mount point ext4 /home. What should be the mount point for my second HDD? Also, if I leave if without a mounting point. Are they going to appear as file systems?
[10:47] <gogeta> progre55: so if your server had a monoter you could even watch a movie
[10:48] <Jordan_U> llutz: gogeta: Ubuntu Server does not install a GUI by default, and neither do most users of Ubuntu server.
[10:48] <john38> iflema, how bout this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16825134002
[10:48] <mason> my system has a high rate of redraw even though it has the 3d drivers installed
[10:48] <gogeta> Jordan_U: gui and fb mode are 2 diffrent things
[10:48] <progre55> gogeta: well, the server is located in the amazon clouds, so I dont think I could do that =)
[10:48] <xxrocieroxx> buenas tardes
[10:48] <gogeta> progre55: probly not
[10:48] <xxrocieroxx> o buenos dias
[10:49] <xxrocieroxx> hay algun español?
[10:49] <gogeta> progre55: but its a cool trick if your a server admin
[10:49] <progre55> =)
[10:49] <gogeta> progre55: my managers always hated i could get there servers to do that
[10:49] <newbie|2> hello friend
[10:49] <progre55> gogeta: lol
[10:49] <progre55> hi mate =)
[10:49] <Andrew9> every startup gksudo asks me for a password when password accepted it says gksudo has no parameter. how do i remove it from startup?
[10:49] <iflema> john38 if its serial.... itll fly..... in the dialup software ya just point it to the /dev/..... hang on let me look
[10:50] <gonzoism> Zeus__,   they will probably be auto-mounted if they are already formatted.   you could always mount it in /mnt   or in /media/sdxx   (xx being whatever)
[10:50] <Jordan_U> progre55: Use mplayer with aalib to watch ascii movies over ssh :)
[10:50] <xxrocieroxx> Buenas
[10:50] <xxrocieroxx> hay algun español?
[10:50] <newbie|2> Jordan_U:  what about sound?
[10:50] <john38> iflema, i use gnome ppp
[10:50] <Misterio> xxrocieroxx: Sí, pero ve a #ubuntu-es :)
[10:50] <gogeta> progre55: i entently enabled fb mode on all of them then take are little lcd monoter and some speakers and connect to one of the blades
[10:50] <Zeus__> gonzoism, what if I leave them without a mounting point? are they going to appear as file systems?
[10:51] <DJones> !es | xxrocieroxx
[10:51] <xxrocieroxx> ¡gracias
[10:51] <gogeta> progre55: and watch moves
[10:51] <progre55> Jordan_U: ascii? 0_o I'll try that right away! ))
[10:51] <mains_power> how do I download the source code for a program?
[10:51] <mains_power> in ubuntu?
[10:51] <tim> Hey. I'm using 'dd' to look at the end of a drive. If I skip=x sectors, a label appears at octal = y. But I need to know how many sectors to skip to make the label appear at octal = 0040000.  I can convert octal to decimal, but how do I convert decimal to sectors?
[10:51] <gonzoism> Zeus__,   they will most likely be auto-mounted.   so yes, a filesystem auto mounted in /media/  and you will most likely get an icon on your desktop....  :)
[10:51] <llutz> mains_power: apt-get source package
[10:51] <mains_power> is there a gui way to do it?
[10:52] <mason> the source code comes with most programs
[10:52] <mason> in the src folder
[10:52] <iflema> john38 you need to confirm.... apparently there where some dumb if you will external modems released after 2002..... tears
[10:52] <gonzoism> mains_power, well, you can get it from the projects home page as well as a tarball,  whatever.tar.gz
[10:52] <violinappren> tim, a sector is 512 byte
[10:52] <gogeta> progre55: its nice being these blades are on fiber
[10:52] <xxrocieroxx> #ubuntu-.es
[10:52] <gogeta> progre55: fasst
[10:52] <progre55> gogeta: you bet )
[10:52] <mains_power> Where is the src folder?
[10:52] <violinappren> xxrocieroxx: type, /join #ubuntu-es
[10:53] <john38> iflema, what i idint understand
[10:53] <mason> mains_power: if you downloaded a deb package u r out of luck
[10:53] <progre55> Jordan_U: do I have to install the lib separately or does it come with mplayer? cause I cant find any mplayer plugins with aalib )
[10:53] <mains_power> Does Ubuntu come with the source code for the programs installed?
[10:53] <john38> iflema,  confirm i have serial port?
[10:53] <gonzoism> mains_power, what program are you wanting the source to ?
[10:53] <progre55> Jordan_U: or were you just kidding?
[10:54] <progre55> =)
[10:54] <mains_power> Well Google chrome
[10:54] <iceroot> mains_power: donwload the source-package not the binary package (deb)
[10:54] <violinappren> mains_power: each program has it's own source code layout and built mechanism, either use apt-get source or consult each application's home page
[10:54] <mason> mains_power: which pgm do u want?
[10:54] <tim> right violinappren, but i still don't know how to use that info
[10:54] <iflema> john38 no, if you go to purchase a "new" external dialup......
[10:54] <mains_power> You can't get the source code for google chrome, can you?
[10:54] <tim> and thank you for the reply
[10:54] <mains_power> only chromium?
[10:54] <iceroot> mains_power: or have a look at man apt-get  there was an opion to download the source-package
[10:54] <gogeta> iflema: who said dialup
[10:54] <mains_power> I want the source for google chrome
[10:54] <iflema> john38 point the software to /dev/ttys0
[10:55] <john38> ok got it
[10:55] <Jordan_U> progre55: -vo aa
[10:55] <iflema> john38 if not /dev/ttyS1
[10:55] <john38> not dev/modem
[10:55] <mason> mains_power: go to the official website
[10:55] <xxrocieroxx> esta el canal vacio
[10:55] <gonzoism> mains_power, just type apt-get source chrome   or whatever the package is called.   or you can go to the chrome website and get the latest sources.    (ubuntu patches won't be applied, but I doubt you would notice that or that it would really matter.)
[10:55] <violinappren> mains_power: http://dev.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/get-the-code
[10:55] <iflema> john38 only if you make the shortcut
[10:55] <gogeta> iflema: dialup people still use that
[10:55] <iflema> :)
[10:55] <gogeta> iflema: where do you live the desert
[10:56] <gogeta> lol
[10:56] <mason> mains_power: also try srware iron

[11:01] <terrid> Hi all, im having major problems trying to get mysql installed
[11:01] <violinappren> !details | terrid
[11:02] <john38> does scanmodem allow me to download modem driver
[11:02] <gogeta> john38: it simply tells you what modem and driver it uses
[11:02] <terrid> I rebooted on moday and when i tried to start mysql, i got the following: Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exists!
[11:02] <gogeta> john38: like connex
[11:03] <gogeta> john38: and so on
[11:03] <terrid> i then thought I'd remove mysql-client and mysql-server
[11:03] <john38> gogeta, i got a creative modem blaster v.92 pci DI5633
[11:03] <terrid> but it just hangs on 'Stopping MySQL database server mysqld'
[11:03] <john38> gogeta, is that connex
[11:03] <terrid> I'm using Karmic
[11:04] <gogeta> john38: scanmodem will tell you and it sounds like a winmodem
[11:04] <terrid> can anyone help?
[11:04] <violinappren> terrid: so the packages are not removed? does mysqld start ?
[11:04] <qwertyjustin> Hi, how can i permanently mount the /host drive to ubuntu desktop?

[11:05] <violinappren> fstab *
[11:05] <gogeta> john38: is that a ext usb modem?
[11:06] <phlak_user> terrid: have you setup access for user blah@localhost using mysqladmin?
[11:06] <violinappren> terrid: 'mysql' is the client, mysqld is the server, paste the output of 'ps aux | grep mysql'
[11:06] <terrid> root      6799  0.0  0.0   1752   548 ?        S    10:59   0:00 /bin/sh /usr/bin/mysqld_safe

[11:10] <tim> Hey. I'm using 'dd' to look at the end of a drive. If I skip=x sectors, a label appears at octal = y. But I need to know how many sectors to skip to make the label appear at octal = 0040000. How do I convert the difference between two octals into sectors?
[11:10] <john38> when i download scanmodem tool
[11:10] <john38> and i run
[11:10] <gogeta> john38: yes your going to need to use scanmodem and find out its chipset lspci only gives you the brand name
[11:10] <terrid> violinappren:  any ideas?
[11:10] <violinappren> terrid: the access denied message is because you have no user named 'blah', root can still login
[11:10] <gogeta> john38: scanmodem makes a text file just read it
[11:11] <john38> gogeta, run in this the process will it download the necessary driver
[11:11] <shadow_phoenix> hello
[11:11] <gogeta> john38: just sudo scanmodem then read the text file
[11:11] <john38> ok
[11:11] <st__>  how can I boot when mountall cannot mount some filesystem?
[11:11] <gogeta> john38: gets made in the dir you run it
[11:11] <john38> gogeta,  what im going to is install modem in this computer
[11:11] <inveratulo> How do you tab through multiple terminal tabs in Ubuntu's default terminal app?

[11:12] <violinappren> terrid: stat /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
[11:12] <gogeta> john38: then we knoe what driver it needs
[11:12] <fablinix> should I use Google Chrome or Chromium?
[11:12] <john38> gogeta, oh but scanmodem wont download it for me
[11:12] <gogeta> john38: no
[11:12] <terrid> violinappren:  stat: cannot stat `/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock': No such file or directory
[11:12] <john38> gogeta,  what are the chances i'll get driver
[11:12] <phlak_user> fablinix: Google Chrome isnt available for Linux yet; you can use Chromium natively
[11:13] <gogeta> john38: once you do what i say and we knoe its chipset
[11:13] <john38> gogeta, brb

[11:49] <violinappren> !hi | KwikkSilva, Bullterd
[11:49] <Bullterd> I have a folder with a load of sub folders in it. Each sub folder has another folder called "afoldername" and inside that folder is a load of files.

[12:41] <iflema> john38 kk.... goodone if its ready there be a device in /dev/ link to /dev/modem and dial away
[12:41] <ariefbayu> violinappren: Problem solved. I just have to do `sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun`
[12:41] <ariefbayu> thanks for your time
[12:42] <john38> iflema, in device it detected a new modem that wasnt in list /dev/ttySHCF0
[12:42] <john38> iflema, with new speed
[12:42] <violinappren> ariefbayu: i prefer openjdk-6-jre
[12:42] <iflema> john38 thats the thing with external..... /dev/ttyS0 allready exists... just gotta plug in
[12:43] <violinappren> sudama: i see no errors in there, what errors do you get with iwlist ?
[12:43] <john38> iflema, oh wait a minute
[12:43] <john38> iflema, i probably neglected to mention that i instaled headers and build essentials
[12:44] <john38> iflema, maybe i would have still worked
[12:44] <ariefbayu> violinappren: yes, everyone has it's own preferences. I never compare that though, because I use netbeans as my heavy PHP IDE
[12:44] <iflema> john38 ive never used scanmodem?!?!?!?!?!?!? I always identified the chip with my eye......
[12:44] <iflema> john38 and there was once a site with photographs of the chips and corresponding instruction =)
[12:45] <sudama> violinappren: network is down
[12:45] <john38> iflema, i've seen only few analog modems but im not expert
[12:45] <sudama> but ifconfig wlan0 up gives me unknown error 132
[12:45] <john38> iflema, they all look the same
[12:46] <realubot> How do I remove a PPA and all of its packages?
[12:46] <iflema> john38 a million diff card all using one a dozen chipsets
[12:46] <violinappren> sudama: ifconfig up wlan0 ?
[12:46] <sudama> unknown host
[12:47] <john38> iflema,  you think the hcfpcimodem_121full_i386.deb was enough or did it require alsa-driver-linuxant.10.20.3_all.deb and kernel headers and build essentials that i installed
[12:48] <iflema> john38 it depends on what the deb package you used required.....
[12:48] <iflema> john38 not sure m8
[12:48] <sudama> violinappren, I googled quite a lot, there was some solved issue with this driver.. I installed fresh 1 month ago ,all good.. now, it doesn't work.... even new fresh install doesn't
[12:49] <violinappren> sudama: did you ifconfig up ?
[12:49] <sudama> ifconfig up gives error 132 unknown
[12:49] <violinappren> sudama: paste exact error messages
[12:49] <iflema> john38 I happily left dialup behind many years ago.... Its was a MS Windows world back then......
[12:50] <john38> iflema, when i installed hsfmodem-<IP_ADDRESS>full_Jaunty.tar.bz2 that i got from another website it had problems such as Module Build Failed and "No Modem Device was detected by HSF driver
[12:50] <sudama> SIOCCSIFFLAGS: unknown error 132
[12:50] <violinappren> realubot: try apptitude
[12:50] <john38> iflema, i was instructed to download kernel headers and build essentials still didnt work
[12:50] <john38> iflema, finally with scanmodem it worked

[12:57] <sudama> violinappren, here is legal.. anyway just joking ; fixed, thnx a lot
[12:57] <john38> iflema, do kernel-source and the gcc C compiler come automatically installed on Ubuntu
[12:57] <john38> iflema, 10.04
[12:58] <violinappren> sburjan: smartctl -A /dev/sda (and pastebin it)
[12:58] <violinappren> sudama: you're welcome

[13:00] <iflema> john38 sorry john im no rush at the moment...... ask the channel
[13:00] <john38> iflema, well i think i finally solved this nagging problem
[13:00] <owd95> I have install many programs today and remove many to... can i be sure that Ubuntu removes it 100% so it don't slow down the system+
[13:00] <owd95> ?
[13:01] <john38> Does anybody know if kernel-source and the gcc C compiler come preinstalled on ubuntu
[13:01] <violinappren> sburjan: Reallocated_Sector_Ct seems fine. where do you see that problem?
[13:01] <Eventyret> violinappren: should the ubuntu default drivers for Atheros wirless be ok ? i haveing intermitted issues with it..
[13:01] <Eventyret> :)
[13:02] <violinappren> Eventyret: it depends on the chip, pastebin the output, i have an ath chipset and it works fine (i'm even using it in ap mode)
[13:02] <sudama> Eventyret, wich atheros, wich ubuntu?
[13:02] <sburjan> gsmartcontrol  reports it with another color. and if you look in the pastebin, you should see that it has a raw value of 520
[13:03] <sburjan> violinappren,  gsmartcontrol  reports it with another color. and if you look in the pastebin, you should see that it has a raw value of 520
[13:03] <Eventyret> sudama: AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter
[13:03] <Eventyret> sudama: Ubuntu 9.10
[13:03] <john38> hey violinappren does kernel-source and gcc C compiler come preinstalled in Ubuntu
[13:03] <violinappren> sburjan: but it's not below threshold, it it just yellow ?
[13:03] <violinappren> john38: no
[13:04] <Eventyret> violinappren: http://pastebin.org/410711
[13:04] <john38> violinappren, is that needed for .deb packages
[13:04] <sudama> Eventyret, I have it correctly working on ubu 10.4
[13:04] <violinappren> john38: if the dep needs them to compile, then yes
[13:05] <sburjan> violinappren, : it has a pink background. and Palimpest reported that my hard drive is failing. I ran apt-get update and installed the updates, and now palimpest doesnt give any error, but I can't read the SMART data. so this is why i instaled gsmart
[13:05] <Eventyret> sudama: yeah but ubuntu 10.4 gives me other issues :P with shutdown and restart of the computer :P
[13:05] <sudama> Eventyret, you have to install compat-wireless
[13:05] <Eventyret> sudama: any guides on it or is it just a apt-get compat-wirless
[13:05] <john38> violinappren, i instaleld a .deb file just one click
[13:05] <violinappren> sburjan: screenshot gsmart
[13:06] <sudama> Eventyret, is a kernel issu I think, correct me someone if wrong, i can google for you
[13:06] <john38> violinappren,  took about few seconds
[13:06] <violinappren> john38: if you don't need to compile it, then they are not needed
[13:06] <Eventyret> sudama: thank you :)
[13:06] <realubot> violinappren: I think I have to install a .deb packages mentioned in a lot of blog posts to remove PPAs. Strange that Ubuntu hasn't got this feature by default.
[13:07] <john38> violinappren, thats whats i thought thanks
[13:07] <sudama> Eventyret,  translate this : http://otroblogmas.com/instalar-en-ubuntu-los-drivers-para-atheros-ar9285/
[13:07] <sburjan> violinappren, : where can I upload the photo ?
[13:07] <littlebear> sburjan: image bin
[13:07] <spacegho1t> is there something I can install so I don't have to modprobe p54pci every boot
[13:07] <violinappren> realubot: PPAs are added to /etc/apt/source.list.d but removing this won't remove its packages
[13:07] <violinappren> !pastebin | sburjan
[13:08] <sudama> Eventyret,  I have to go, juts check kernel version and follow steps esay piecy
[13:08] <Eventyret> sudama: ok :)
[13:08] <violinappren> spacegho1t: add it to /etc/modules
[13:09] <violinappren> Eventyret: any relevant error messages in /var/log/messages ?
[13:09] <sburjan> violinappren, : http://imagebin.org/106228

[13:09] <violinappren> spacegho1t: you're welcome
[13:09] <ivo_> Hi guys is it normal not see grub before ubuntu loads??
[13:10] <Pici> ivo_: yes, it runs silently by default.  Press shift during the boot to make it visible.
[13:11] <violinappren> sburjan: "failed: never"... it didn't fail yet, it's just a warning that a lot of sectors has been reallocated,
[13:11] <sburjan> oh, so nothing bad has happend
[13:11] <sburjan> is a reason to worry ?
[13:11] <Pudgy> I was wondering what Ubuntu's stance is (if they have one) on the design/implementation of 3D on the desktop. Any thoughts?
[13:11] <sburjan> about the drive failing ? (I know it is a relativistic question, I can fail suddenly)
[13:11] <ertay> hi all
[13:11] <sburjan> *it
[13:12] <sburjan> violinappren, : but I guess if it's in warranty.. should I change it ?
[13:12] <ivo_> Pici than I don't understand it
[13:12] <ivo_> I reinstalled ubuntu a couple of times
[13:12] <violinappren> sburjan: you should call them and ask
[13:12] <ivo_> and everytime I get different results
[13:12] <ivo_> no I can see grub running
[13:13] <ivo_> and it is waiting 10sec to choose kernel
[13:13] <sburjan> violinappren,  : so I guess there is some issue after all
[13:13] <ivo_>  how can I hide it again
[13:13] <violinappren> sburjan: both seagate and western digital have bootable disk check CDs, i'm not sure about toshiba
[13:13] <sburjan> this is a laptop disk
[13:13] <violinappren> sburjan: is it a laptop? do you move it a lot?
[13:13] <ivo_> there is also no more menu.lst ...
[13:14] <sburjan> not at all
[13:14] <Pici> !grub2 | ivo_
[13:14] <violinappren> sburjan: the drive may have had some shocks
[13:14] <sburjan> in the past 5 month is worked as a DEsktop Replacement. It;s a HP model that has some 3D Drive Guard
[13:14] <sburjan> violinappren, that protects the drive from shocks
[13:14] <ivo_> Pici 10x
[13:15] <violinappren> sburjan: you should call support and ask them about the bad sectors
[13:15] <saleh> hi ,what the meaning of:sudo dpkg --configare -a         sudo apt-get install -f       ?
[13:16] <sburjan> violinappren,  : because I used Self-Test extended from bios and didn'treported anything
[13:16] <violinappren> saleh: copy and paste the error messages you get
[13:16] <violinappren> !pastebin | saleh
[13:17] <coz_> hey guys... I am looking at image thumbnails on the desktop and notice that they have a 2 pixel border around them in white... is there a way to reduce that to one pixel ???
[13:17] <violinappren> sburjan: the test will pass even if there are bad sectors because there are spare sectors that gets replaced and that's why you have this count

[13:41] <monkey_dust> !ask| IceIceIce
[13:42] <anji_t6> Hello guys, i have recently installed ubuntu 10.04. I see at times the screen just blinks for a second. It is a bit annoying while at work. How can i get rid of this? please help
[13:42] <violinappren> Guest55021: after paste, submit, and copy the webpage address here
[13:42] <sburjan> violinappren, : so a clean hard drive wipe wouldn't reset the SMART counter
[13:42] <Guest55021> violinappren - http://pastebin.com/ymsZDYxQ
[13:43] <violinappren> sburjan: no, it won't
[13:43] <bivo> tf... no matter what I'm putting lxsplit just spits out the instructions. Possibly missing something?
[13:44] <geirha> ascheel: See the man-pages for motd and motd.tail
[13:45] <violinappren> Guest55021: only the usb dongle is logitech ?
[13:45] <Cool_C> monkey_dust: doesnt work. or, the thing i removed was not it. some icons remain but not all... and the annoying thing is, i cannot remember now exactly what other icons there was except the social thing
[13:45] <c3l> what is the option "--sm-disable" for "nm-applet"? there is no manpage
[13:45] <Cool_C> ah, it was the indicator applet
[13:46] <monkey_dust> we're here to learn, Cool_C
[13:46] <Cool_C> so, then the question is: how do i remove the social icon from the indicator applet?
[13:46] <IceIceIce> Hey again i am trying to install ubuntu netbook remix 10.04 on Eeepc 1005p dual with win 7 starter. I made the diskonkey with the ubuntu install but there is no dual option in the manu like it sepose to be
[13:46] <new2ubuntu> yeah I did the pastebin thingy lol  http://pastebin.com/3Ssx3Lbu
[13:47] <Guest55021> violinappren - That is correct.
[13:47] <Guest55021> violinappren - Yes - It is a logitech MX 1100 (replacing an MX Revolution whcih is very similar).
[13:48] <trollboy> question for you guys, sometimes if I have a window over another window,  and I click on the the window.. the window behind it becomes activated
[13:48] <Cool_C> annoying. can't find any startup application that it could be either
[13:48] <trollboy> its rather annoying
[13:49] <ikonia> trollboy: sounds like a compiz bug or plugin feature
[13:49] <SaintSapphire> Is there a way to force a makefile to build a program in 32-bit mode if I'm on a 64-bit machine?
[13:49] <ikonia> SaintSapphire: it doesn't work like that
[13:49] <monkey_dust> Cool_C, maybe this helps => http://ubuntugenius.wordpress.com/2010/05/04/remove-evolution-mail-notifier-from-indicator-applet-in-ubuntus-system-tray/
[13:49] <ikonia> SaintSapphire: you need to make the host machine multi-lib and meet it's dependencies
[13:49] <phlak_user> SaintSapphire: there is a switch that you can pass to the compiler
[13:50] <phlak_user> SaintSapphire: aka cross-compiling for diff architectures
[13:50] <pure_hate> If you dont have the 32 bit libs its useless
[13:50] <IceIceIce> dual boot problem with netbook edition any1?
[13:50] <SaintSapphire> Ah, so I can compile to 32-bit, but without extra libs, I can't execute the compiled software?
[13:50] <ascheel> geirha: no information is given on how to update the motd.  I tried installing update-motd and while it adds MOST of the files it says, it does NOT add the actual binary named 'update-motd'.  Any ideas?
[13:51] <phlak_user> SaintSapphire: you couldnt compile also
[13:51] <its-me-again> hi how do i use gdm themes in ubuntu
[13:51] <gogeta> well this is crazy my monoter lost red a few days ago and i think its slowly coming back
[13:51] <gogeta> i cn see a bit of red
[13:51] <SaintSapphire> phlak_user: Ah. Is it simple to add 32bit libs? Or am I going to start drowning as soon as I start?
[13:51] <Guest55021> violinappren - Any ideas?
[13:52] <phlak_user> SaintSapphire: it is as simple/difficult as adding packages
[13:52] <violinappren> Guest55021: i suspect it's a bluetooth issue
[13:52] <phlak_user> gogeta: check all the pins on your monitor cable/PC vga port
[13:53] <new2ubuntu> If any1 can help, I lost my sound. I have no hw to config. I had sound yesterday. here is my hw list.  http://pastebin.com/3Ssx3Lbu
[13:53] <SaintSapphire> phlak_user: Is there a list of which packages I'd need somewhere?
[13:53] <Guest55021> violinappren - The box says it is a 2.4 GHz wireless. I don't think bluetooth is involved.
[13:53] <ivan_> could anybody help about screensaver in GDM
[13:53] <violinappren> Guest55021: aha interesting
[13:53] <phlak_user> SaintSapphire: depends entirely on what you're trying to build; you should typically look for the relevant packages with libxyz-dev
[13:54] <phlak_user> Guest55021: if you also have a wi-fi router, it could be due to interference; change the channel on the router and try again
[13:54] <ankur> hi
[13:54] <phlak_user> !hi | ankur
[13:54] <ankur> helo
[13:54] <Guest55021> violinappren - I have another MX Revolution on the same desk for a computer 6 feet away from the other one. It is connected to a Windows 7 machine and does not display the behavior. I have disconnected the receiver and turned off the mouse but it did not help.
[13:54] <ankur> what is ur name
[13:54] <violinappren> new2ubuntu: i see no sound cards! perhaps it has been displaced inside the case ?
[13:55] <gogeta> phlak_user: i tested it on my laptop to make shure it wasent the video same result
[13:55] <gogeta> phlak_user: withen the last 30 minuts its getting everything back slowly
[13:55] <violinappren> Guest55021: i suggest you report this as a bug
[13:55] <violinappren> !bug | Guest55021
[13:55] <ShadowDXS> hey everyone
[13:55] <SaintSapphire> phlak_user: It's a private project someone wrote involving a reverse prng tool for a game. So there's likely no pre-existing packages specifically *for* that application, unless you meant a g++ libxyz-dev or somesuch
[13:56] <new2ubuntu> It's a laptop, the sound was just working yesterday.
[13:56] <phlak_user> gogeta: some monitors have settings where you can change the RGB settings individually
[13:56] <violinappren> !hi | ShadowDXS
[13:56] <phlak_user> SaintSapphire: yes those types which that someone wouldve used
[13:56] <gogeta> phlak_user: rgb was dead red gone everything black or a diffrent color
[13:56] <violinappren> new2ubuntu: could it be turned off in BIOS ?
[13:56] <gogeta> phlak_user: i had one fail like that before lost green
[13:57] <gogeta> phlak_user: it didnt come back
[13:57] <phlak_user> gogeta: what monitor is this?
[13:57] <gogeta> phlak_user: a colorreal
[13:57] <gogeta> phlak_user: a crt
[13:58] <phlak_user> gogeta: ah; havent seen those for a while now :)
[13:58] <karlo__> when somebody install on computer program in terminal (sudo apt-get install "program") where terminal install that program ?
[13:58] <gogeta> phlak_user: i prefer em
[13:58] <new2ubuntu> violinappren: If I reboot my laptop to winxp and I have sound, then it should be enabled in he bios, correct? becuz I bet I have sound in XP
[13:58] <gogeta> phlak_user: lcds always seem to washed out
[13:58] <violinappren> karlo__: just type it's name and press enter
[13:58] <erUSUL> karlo__: all over the place see  « dpkg -L "program" »
[13:58] <Vroomfondle> karlo__: normally under /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin. use:   sudo dpkg -L "program"      to find out where it went.
[13:58] <phlak_user> karlo__: in /usr/bin or /usr/sbin or /sbin ; easiest way to find out is by $which program
[13:59] <erUSUL> !fhs | karlo__
[13:59] <karlo__> ok
[13:59] <violinappren> new2ubuntu: and while you're at it, check BIOS settings
[13:59] <geirha> ascheel: Hm. I seem to remember the man-pages said how, but I see now it references non-existant files and such. I don't see any obvious ways.
[13:59] <gogeta> phlak_user: it supports all your fancy hd rez etc
[13:59] <new2ubuntu> Ok, I'll be back...
[13:59] <phlak_user> gogeta: ok
[13:59] <IceIceIce> hey ppl i have a problem installing ubuntu 10.04 netbook dual with win7 starter. when i boot from my diskonkey ubuntu install in the menu of the install there is no side by side install option like it shown on the tutorial
[13:59] <gogeta> phlak_user: but its just friggen crazy rgb is restoring itsself
[14:00] <tucemiux> IceIceIce, it doesnt work that way, first you have to have free space, do you have free space
[14:01] <tucemiux> IceIceIce, what I mean by "free" space is not "available" hard drive space, I mean hard drive space not being used by windows 7
[14:02] <gogeta> phlak_user: reds still dark but its working from totaly gone
[14:02] <cheosite> hi all
[14:02] <phlak_user> gogeta: maybe you need to get it degaussed
[14:02] <violinappren> !hi | cheosite
[14:02] <otswim> hello, is there a ubuntu ppa for firefox 4 beta ?
[14:02] <Maletor> I need to install gvfs-backends but when I go to install it it tells me  Depends: libgvfscommon0 but it is not going to be installed. Also when I go to install that it tell me that it's going to remove everything but the kitchen sink (ubuntu-desktop) What do I do?
[14:03] <gogeta> phlak_user: i never deal with monoters lol i just replace em when they die
[14:03] <violinappren> otswim: there's a ppa search box
[14:03] <IceIceIce> yes i used win 7 partition tool to shrink the c drive and now i have 50 g of space not used
[14:04] <violinappren> !who | IceIceIce
[14:04] <otswim> violinappren: right, thanks :)
[14:04] <blackn1ght> Hi, I'm having trouble mounting my USB-HDD on my girlfriends laptop
[14:05] <phlak_user> blackn1ght: and what would the error be?
[14:05] <IceIceIce> tucemiux: yes i used win 7 partition tool to shrink the c drive and now i have 50 g of space not used
[14:05] <blackn1ght> it mounts on my PC, and on her laptop on Winduws 7
[14:05] <erUSUL> Maletor: do you have proposed enabled? or any third party repositorie ?
[14:05] <violinappren> !details | blackn1ght
[14:05] <Solvent> what the best irc client program for gnome?
[14:05] <blackn1ght> there's no error message, nothing  happens :\ lsusb can see it, fdisk -l cannot
[14:05] <phlak_user> !best | Solvent
[14:05] <erUSUL> Solvent: xchat
[14:05] <Maletor> erUSUL: Pre released updates is unchecked and the only third party repo is Mactel.
[14:05] <cheosite> can I have a virtual drive in ubuntu, like when use alcohol or nero?
[14:05] <phlak_user> cheosite: sure
[14:06] <Solvent> i just installed from a usb stick
[14:06] <Solvent> worked like a dream
[14:06] <yudongx>  hi, everybody
[14:06] <gogeta> cheosite: we call that loopback
[14:06] <erUSUL> !iso | cheosite
[14:06] <ascheel> geirha: Thanks for the motd help.  the package update-motd doesn't use a standard binary anymore.  It's executed by pam at login, but it seems broken for a number of people.  I think it's just a broken package.
[14:06] <violinappren> blackn1ght: no relevant errors in /var/log/messages ?
[14:06] <blackn1ght> I'll have a look - dmesg recognises it when I plug it in
[14:06] <violinappren> !hi | yudongx
[14:06] <geirha> ascheel: Ah, good to know. :)
[14:07] <Guest55021> thanks voilinappren
[14:07] <blackn1ght> last entry in dmesg: "usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning"
[14:07] <ascheel> geirha: No it's not!  :)
[14:07] <Gryllida> virtual memory exhausted: Cannot allocate memory
[14:07] <Gryllida> make: *** [Objects/typeobject.o] Error 1
[14:07] <Gryllida> how do I run make to fix it?
[14:07] <Maletor> erUSUL: what do?
[14:08] <erUSUL> Maletor: aptitude why-not libgvfscommon0
[14:08] <Maletor> erUSUL: i   gvfs Conflicts libgvfscommon0
[14:09] <blackn1ght> violinappren: /var/log/messages (grepped) says "usbcore: registered new interface driver usb-storage"
[14:09] <violinappren> blackn1ght: also, ls /dev/sd* (after you plug it in)
[14:09] <io> Why is linux-image-server been kept back when upgrading? I've tried 'why-not' which has no information.
[14:10] <its-me-again> hi how do i use gdm themes in ubuntu
[14:10] <blackn1ght> violinappren: /dev/sda, sda1, sda2, sda3, sda5, sda6
[14:10] <zealiod> does any one know what tcpdump command i'd use to specify glean the vlan 802.11q tag from a packet...
[14:10] <erUSUL> Maletor: apt-cache policy libgvfscommon0
[14:11] <christ_> bjr
[14:12] <tucemiux> IceIceIce, you have to ask in the room whether it's ok or not to PM, you dont just send a PM
[14:12] <Maletor> erUSUL: http://pastie.org/1053617
[14:12] <christ_> bjr arniokas
[14:12] <blackn1ght> anyone know how to hide joins/parts in irssi?
[14:12] <barfster> Anyone here know how to run Ubuntu as virtual host? Or a good how to?
[14:12] <ascheel> IceIceIce: it's also not a good idea to PM as others in the room learn from the questions of everybody else.
[14:12] <erUSUL> Maletor: dunno why it conflicts ... i have both installed here ...
[14:12] <ikonia> barfster: depeds what technology you want to use for virtualization, xen/kvm ?
[14:12] <tucemiux> zealiod, that doesnt seem like a problem with ubuntu, someone might know in #ubuntu-offtopic or maybe some of the programmers or sys admins
[14:12] <ascheel> barfster, you mean using VirtualBox or something similar?
[14:13] <barfster> I would prefer if there is one that comes with ubuntu
[14:13] <Maletor> blackn1ght: http://irssi.org/documentation/tips
[14:13] <erUSUL> Maletor: if you do « sudo aptitude dist-upgrade » ?
[14:13] <zealiod> ta
[14:13] <tucemiux> barfster, I use virtual box, download virtualbox from their site, im installing kubuntu virtually right now as we chat, if you need any more info ask away or go to #vbox
[14:13] <ikonia> barfster: the only one that's "part" of ubuntu is kvm a that's part of the linux kerne, however, virtual box, xen, are all applications that are free and packaged for ubuntu
[14:14] <cheosite> I use this command mount -t iso9660 Office\ 2007.iso /mnt/cdrom -o loop and I get this error mount: mount point /mnt/cdroom does not exist
[14:14] <Maletor> erUSUL: that does nothing
[14:14] <erUSUL> cheosite: use /media/cdrom/ that should exist or create the mount point « sudo mkdir /mnt/cdrom/ »
[14:14] <violinappren> blackn1ght: try restarting udev ?
[14:15] <blackn1ght> Maletor: thanks, I take it the changes happen after I restart irssi then
[14:15] <Cool_C> monkey_dust: thanks, removing those two did it i think. going to relogin now and check
[14:15] <erUSUL> Maletor: gvfs conflicts with gvfs-backends < 1.5 but 1.6 is the one to be installed. dunno why the conflict ...
[14:15] <blackn1ght> violinappren: sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart ? trying that now...
[14:16] <Maletor> erUSUL: perhaps it is because i tried to compile and install ?
[14:16] <erUSUL> Maletor: dunno; you created a deb ?
[14:16] <blackn1ght> violinappren: no joy :(
[14:16] <cheosite> thanks I dont get an error, but how I open the image?
[14:16] <Maletor> erUSUL: I did not do checkinstall
[14:17] <violinappren> blackn1ght: cat /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug
[14:17] <erUSUL> cheosite: just open the file browse and go to /media/cdrom « nautilus /media/cdrom/ »
[14:17] <Maletor> I did find /usr -iname "*gvfs*" and that returned nothing
[14:17] <new2ubuntu> violinappren: I downgraded the nvida video driver, rebooted, and got sound. Don't know why that worked but now I don't have cool vis effects <sniff>
[14:17] <erUSUL> Maletor: then that shouldn't have messed up dpkg/apt
[14:17] <csgeek> I'm trying to change sudo so it allows one user to use something like sudo -u foobar /bin/command without being prompted for a password.    %osm ALL=NOPASSWD:/bin/command  seems to work until I add the -u flag
[14:17] <Maletor> I mean /usr/local; /usr returned some stuff
[14:17] <blackn1ght> violinappren: that's empty
[14:17] <Maletor> erUSUL: Well I need to resolve this; what do you think will be the next step?
[14:19] <violinappren> new2ubuntu:  it could be taking over the sound device, paste your /var/log/messages
[14:19] <jsimmons> Hi, having some trouble with Brasero. When it re-encodes a video to put on a dvd, it seems to do it using the super super fast mode or something, which produces a horrible result.
[14:19] <MattoD> Hi all :), I have installed apache2 and it cant FQDN when restart, Is there a way to make it qualify as theres <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:19] <blackn1ght> violinappren: brb - restarting irssi
[14:19] <jsimmons> note it also insists on re-encoding, even when I give it a vob file with a mpeg-2 video stream and AC-3 audio
[14:20] <pLr> MattoD: you can still use it w/ that error
[14:20] <cheosite> thanks but no cdrom in /media, the cdrom there in /mnt/cdrom , but it's great now I can install Office
[14:20] <blackn1ght> violinappren: back
[14:20] <IceIceIce> what can be the couz of ubuntu install from diskonkey not having the dual boot option in the proper menu????
[14:20] <MattoD> ty, one of those things hat pop up but doesnt really mean anything
[14:20] <new2ubuntu> violinappren: I think I'm going to just be happy with the sound for now. Thanks for your help this morning.
[14:20] <csgeek> nvm. got it
[14:20] <tucemiux> jsimmons, did you try viewing your video first using an app in your computer and then viewing the video again -- on your computer??
[14:21] <violinappren> new2ubuntu: you're welcome
[14:22] <erUSUL> Maletor: really dunno how to solve it ... maybve if you go ahead with the unistals and after that reinstall ubuntu-desktop ?
[14:22] <new2ubuntu> violinappren: Thanks again, BTW Is this room always this busy? I'd like to come back when at a quieter time.
[14:22] <IceIceIce> hey ppl i have a problem installing ubuntu 10.04 netbook dual with win7 starter. when i boot from my diskonkey ubuntu install in the menu of the install there is no side by side install option like it shown on the tutorial
[14:22] <violinappren> blackn1ght: i think it's being recognized as something other than a disk , paste lsusb
[14:22] <jsimmons> yeah tucemiux, it goes in pretty and comes out horrible.
[14:23] <io> new2ubuntu: It is considerably quieter at the weekends, usually. All depends when people require support, whether that is 9 AM in the morning, or 4 AM in the morning. :-)
[14:23] <violinappren> new2ubuntu: depends on the time of the day but it's not THAT busy now.
[14:23] <io> new2ubuntu: And this isn't busy at the moment, disabling join/part messages in your IRC client will make it clearer as a user.
[14:24] <monkey_dust> new2ubuntu, and 9pm for the usa is 1pm for europe :)
[14:24] <Maletor> erUSUL: what will uninstalling ubuntu-desktop do?
[14:24] <new2ubuntu> IO Thanks for the tip, I'm going to do that now.

[14:25] <monkey_dust> flood!
[14:25] <erUSUL> Maletor: it is harmaless; it is only a meta-package. if only that is removed you are safe
[14:25] <blackn1ght> sorry!
[14:25] <monkey_dust> blackn1ght, use pastebin to show us the output
[14:25] <FloodBot1> blackn1ght: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:25] <erUSUL> Maletor: i thought that many other packages were to be removed ...
[14:25] <Maletor> erUSUL: No it's pretty much everything but the kitchen sink.
