[05:22] <sebsebseb> ubuser: 9.10 you mean,  and sure, but 8.04 :D
[05:22] <hormiga> i have a compiling issues
[05:22] <sebsebseb> !8.04 | ubuser
[05:22] <ubuser> then i'd need even more cds
[05:22] <ubuser> need cmd svn-repo ..download/ftw
[05:22] <sebsebseb> ubuser: Well  offline install or not, once a version of Ubuntu is no longer supported,  as far as I know,  support for it, in this channel, is off topic.  Except for the upgrading to a later version that is supported, support.
[05:22] <ubuser> libqt3-mt pl9x
[05:23] <ubuser> supported non working sound too
[05:23] <EvilPhoenix> yeah old versions are not supported here, except with "how to upgrade from a non supported version"

[05:26] <patman023> hey guys, got a bit of an issue - was toying with compiz in ccsm, using the widgets plugin and tried to add something to the widgets layer, now compiz has crashed, and on reboot, i get a DM, but no WM. try to run metacity from tty1, and get an error Window Manager error: unable to open X display. any ideas what I could do to restore any WM?
[05:27] <rww> patman023: try DISPLAY=:0 metacity --replace
[05:28] <glick> hey is there anyway thati can get root permissions when i deal with windows/
[05:28] <jvm> hi. how do you create a new user from a live cd on a ubuntu 9.10 installation? i tried, but get "Authentication failed." when rebooting and trying to actually log in with the newly created user. forgot password for the old one.
[05:28] <glick> so i can have root perms in nautilous say?
[05:28] <RealEyes> What apps does this guy have in his screenshot?? The ones that show his CPU usage and mediaplayer and such ... ? http://gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=95885&file1=95885-1.jpg&file2=95885-2.jpg&file3=95885-3.jpg&name=Yakano+-Colors-
[05:28] <hormiga> sebsebseb: you must remember me
[05:29] <ubuser> 5 hi 7
[05:29] <hormiga> you once called me a troll
[05:29] <hormiga> Anywho...
[05:29] <rww> ubottu: conky | RealEyes
[05:29] <jvm> glick, you can do "sudo su" on a console and then run the gui application.
[05:29] <hormiga> I need the best compiler here in this room to help me
[05:29] <aloon> I'm getting my Nvidia card setup and one of the things is to add a line to xorg "Option "RegistryDwords" "PowerMizerEnable=0x1; PerfLevelSrc=0x3333" , the thing is there is already an entry for Option "RegistryDwords , can there be two entries like that in the device section of xorg.conf ?
[05:29] <thune3> jvm: you are trying to add a user on a system you do not have sudo permission for?
[05:29] <rww> heh, thought there was a factoid for it
[05:29] <jvm> thune3, right.
[05:29] <ubuser> !language | sebsebseb no backtalk
[05:30] <sebsebseb> !compile | hormiga rww
[05:30] <rww> RealEyes: It's called conky, and is in the 'conky' package. I don't know how to configure it, though.
[05:30] <rww> sebsebseb: what?
[05:30] <Craig`> night guys
[05:30] <aloon> The first entry is :  Option          "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"
[05:30] <sebsebseb> rww: ok I guess I didn't read something or misunderstood, nevermind
[05:30] <aloon> which I also added to help my nvidia brightness problems
[05:30] <sebsebseb> rww: I thought you said something about compile factoid, but I didn't read everything as well :D
[05:31] <rww> sebsebseb: nah, I meant !conky
[05:31] <sebsebseb> rww: oh
[05:31] <sebsebseb> !botabuse | ubuser
[05:31] <RealEyes> conky?
[05:31] <RealEyes> were you talking to me?
[05:31] <bastidrazor> RealEyes: http://conky.sourceforge.net/   ..read the variables page and documentation. it will tell you all you need to know
[05:31] <tensorpudding> any media players which can play m4b?
[05:31] <Dr_Willis> Conky is the kind of tool you play with for 3 weeks to get your perfect config.. then lose it. :)
[05:32] <hormiga> !botabuse | sebsebseb
[05:32] <Dr_Willis> Ive learned to keep my fancy configs like that on my UbuntuOne account :)
[05:32] <hormiga> hehehee
[05:33] <sebsebseb> hormiga: your not meant to play with the bot in here, or ubuser for that matter
[05:33] <hormiga> Anywho...
[05:33] <bastidrazor> Dr_Willis: you are crazy.. conky rules and once you get it set. you want everyone else to use it
[05:33] <Gimped> RealEyes http://i34.tinypic.com/1zlc8rp.jpg <<< this is the power of Conky =)
[05:33] <hormiga> I come here for help
[05:33] <Dr_Willis> bastidrazor:  yes..  and it can take a week to get things just right. :) but i did find thiz the other day.
[05:33] <patman023> @rww: Window manager warning: "" found in configuration database is not a valid value for keybinding "run_command_1"
[05:33] <hormiga> they did not helped me in Ubuntustudio room
[05:33] <Dr_Willis> http://code.google.com/p/conkywizard/      a nice gui/config tool for conky
[05:34] <hormiga> Does anyone here knows something about Ubuntustudio?
[05:34] <sebsebseb> !studio | hormiga
[05:34] <bastidrazor> Dr_Willis: i agree, the tweaking needed to get it just perfect is time consuming. in my opinion it is well worth it. 2 of the 3 boxes i use have conky on them.
[05:34] <patman023> rww: Window manager warning: "" found in configuration database is not a valid value for keybinding "run_command_1"
[05:34] <hormiga> I come from that damn room!!
[05:34] <hormiga> ....
[05:35] <Dr_Willis> bastidrazor:  ive not even begun to learn the 'lua' features that are in the new conky versions :)
[05:35] <emet> I have a schroot
[05:35] <jvm> thune3, is that...unrealistic? i mean, on an older system it would just ve worked with chrooting and a simple "adduser", on the livecd.
[05:35] <emet> but I can't install in it
[05:35] <emet> because sudo doesn't exist
[05:35] <rww> patman023: I take it that metacity doesn't start?
[05:35] <sebsebseb> !language > hormiga
[05:35] <emet> what did I do wrong
[05:35] <grendal_prime> hey on the graphical greeter it opens up now with the screen split in half ..one half looks huge like its running something for people with limited visibility.  then it says something like "welcome to.." and i cant make out the rest of it.
[05:35] <Dr_Willis> hormiga:  have you asked an actual support related question yet?
[05:35] <patman023> thats the error i get in tty1
[05:35] <bastidrazor> Dr_Willis: neither have i, the older configs i have still work and i have yet to have a want for Lua and its greatness.
[05:35] <patman023> so no
[05:35] <hormiga> YES!!
[05:35] <rww> patman023: considering that it's a warning and not a fatal error, I'd check anyway.
[05:36] <hormiga> many times
[05:36] <grendal_prime> how do i turn that off?
[05:36] <emet> is there any tool that makes doing schroots easier
[05:36] <grendal_prime> i think i kid fkd that up somehow.
[05:36] <safetynet> When I go to System/Administration/Printing - "Add" a printer is greyed out - my HP Photosmart 7350 was listed But now is gone - Any ideas ? ?
[05:36] <patman023> rww: check which?
[05:36] <hormiga> I remember you, dr_Willis
[05:36] <rww> patman023: go back to your X session, see if metacity is running now.
[05:36] <grendal_prime> emet,  you mean ssh roots?
[05:36] <emet> no
[05:36] <hormiga> Dr_willis: do you know whats wrong here?
[05:36] <grendal_prime> like if you want to root an sftp user to there home dir?
[05:36] <hormiga> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/DFY0nQLE
[05:36] <emet> it's kind of like a virtual machine
[05:36] <sebsebseb> !language > grendal_prime
[05:36] <patman023> didnt work the first 6 times i tried it... now it did...
[05:36] <patman023> rww: thanks
[05:37] <Dr_Willis> hormiga:  i havent even seen your actual question.. it must of scrolled past..
[05:37] <emet> !schroot
[05:37] <emet> !chroot
[05:37] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: his actsaul question was basically well there wasn't one as such
[05:37] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: hormiga asked for the best compiler in the room
[05:37] <Gimped> wow its busy in here =D
[05:37] <grendal_prime> sebsebseb, sorry.
[05:37] <grendal_prime> wasnt thinking
[05:37] <rww> Dr_Willis: his actual question was pretty much http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/DFY0nQLE
[05:37] <grendal_prime> anyway.
[05:37] <hormiga> I was compiling intltools because UbuntuStudio had an old one, for the NetworkManager
[05:37] <emet> that wiki page is garbage btw
[05:37] <emet> it hasn't been updated in like 3 years
[05:38] <sebsebseb> emet: well heres some good news then
[05:38] <hormiga> because, Ubuntustudio did not detected my WIFI automatically
[05:38] <sebsebseb> emet: they are planning on re doing their help sites properly, by 10.10
[05:38] <grendal_prime> emet, you tried virtualbox?
[05:38] <RealEyes> Gimped, what is conky? Can I download it? lol
[05:38] <RealEyes> Gimped, what theme are you using?
[05:38] <sebsebseb> RealEyes: Conky is an app that you run from the terminal
[05:38] <grendal_prime> its about as simple as i can find ...and im a VCP
[05:38] <sebsebseb> RealEyes: will show your computers uptime and such
[05:38] <hormiga> I hate computers....
[05:38] <bastidrazor> RealEyes: did you not go to the page i linked you?
[05:38] <hormiga> i am outta here
[05:39] <emet> grendal_prime, virtualbox is not really suitable for my use case
[05:39] <Snakkah> Is it illegal to use a live USB OS (such as Ubuntu like I have installed on a USB stick) on a public computer? O_o
[05:39] <Gimped> RealEyes: http://conky.sourceforge.net/ <<< can get it here =)
[05:39] <sebsebseb> shockmount: probably not, but might be against the rules for using that computer
[05:39] <Gnea> it's easy to hate what isn't understood
[05:39] <RealEyes> bastidrazor, i didnt
[05:39] <emet> sebsebseb, :\
[05:39] <sebsebseb> shockmount: wrong one
[05:39] <sebsebseb> Snakkah: see above ^
[05:39] <bastidrazor> RealEyes: sudo apt-get install conky   .. the page i linked you is the documentation you need to configure it
[05:39] <Snakkah> sebsebseb, I figured that was for me. Haha.
[05:40] <deathnight114> how do i get adobe flash player 10 for ubuntu?
[05:40] <deathnight114> sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree installs 9
[05:40] <deathnight114> not sure if flashplugin-nonfree is correct, but i know from when i previously had it installed
[05:40] <RealEyes> can someone read this pastebin file and tell me what this guy did while he was ssh'd into my system? :s
[05:40] <rww> !info flashplugin-installer
[05:40] <rww> doesn't look like 9 =\
[05:41] <deathnight114> hmm
[05:41] <deathnight114> i'll try
[05:42] <Gimped> RealEyes: if you setup conky, you can show port info and will prevent stuff like that from happening in the future =)
[05:42] <RealEyes> i let him do it
[05:42] <collabra> is there any program i can use to enable 'loudness equalization' for audio?
[05:42] <RealEyes> he said he was upgrading my OS
[05:42] <Gimped> ah =|
[05:42] <collabra> anyone?
[05:42] <bastidrazor> RealEyes: look at your ~/.bash_history  if he used your account.
[05:43] <sebsebseb> RealEyes: upgrading Ubuntu is easy to do graphicalley
[05:43] <RealEyes> bastidrazor, can I pm you so you can read the pastebin on history>?
[05:43] <AVkrakkle> What's up?
[05:43] <RealEyes> You got it anyway lol
[05:44] <tntc> is there a good music file duplicate remover out there?  like a banshee plugin or something?
[05:44] <deathnight114> okay
[05:45] <deathnight114> i did adobeplugin-nonfree
[05:45] <RealEyes> if anyone wants to read the pastebin file of this guy hacking my system, you can PM me.

[05:51] <ZykoticK9> deathnight114, are you using 64bit Ubuntu?
[05:51] <greezmunkey> safetynet: have you tried: sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart ?
[05:52] <deathnight114> yes @ ZykoticK9
[05:52] <Dr_Willis> theres dozen of 'fixs' for the 'cant click on a button in flash' issue
[05:52] <ZykoticK9> deathnight114, is clicking working now?
[05:52] <deathnight114> no
[05:52] <safetynet> greezmunkey: Nope will give a shot though - hang on let ya know - THanks

[05:53] <Dr_Willis> deathnight114:  if you mainly have an issue with YouTube. you could use the HTML5 featuire  YouTube
[05:53] <greezmunkey> safetynet: you can monitor listening services with: netstat -antp | grep "LISTEN" (cups should be on port 631)
[05:54] <sebsebseb> nimbiotics_: Your welcome, and yeah I knew about that, just coudn't remember at the moment,  what it was actsauly called or the exact menu in system it was in.
[05:54] <PDG1> coz
[05:54] <deathnight114> Dr_Willis, there was a command to get flash player 10, and it fixed it
[05:54] <ZykoticK9> deathnight114, clicking works in both firefox and chromium on my 64bit ubuntu
[05:55] <RealEyes> Does anyone know a good YouTube video that explains Ubuntu and how it works in a theatrical manner? lol
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> deathnight114:  theres dozens of 'commands, and things' one can try to do to fix the flash issues.
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> deathnight114:  one 'fix' is to disable compiz.
[05:55] <deathnight114> brb, i found the script
[05:56] <abhijit> hello
[05:56] <nimbiotics_> Another one ... How do I change super user's password?
[05:56] <wrekt> whats the command to display all the hdd's and their uuid
[05:56] <RealEyes> Does anyone know a good YouTube video that explains Ubuntu and how it works in a theatrical manner? lol
[05:56] <EvilPhoenix> nimbiotics_:  google it we wont tell you since using sudo is all you need to do stuff.

[05:57] <RealEyes> goto terminal and type in: su passwd
[05:57] <terrylm> Grub problem with new 10.04 install, kernel panic, no root, unknown block device (0,0) ... any ideas
[05:57] <greezmunkey> wrekt: sudo blkid
[05:58] <xangua> RealEyes: i liked this http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/07/best-advert-for-ubuntu-you-probably.html
[05:58] <wrekt> greezmunkey, thnx
[05:59] <seanj> well, the bug for pulseaudio lagging in games was closed, yet it still exists in Lucid.. im not pleased
[05:59] <sebsebseb> xangua: It was ok,  and it wasn't this Sebastian that told him about it :D  When I was in a channel like last night,  a guy is like, you got mentioned on omgubuntu,  and I was like what,  no  I wasn't except when it was user days.  :D
[05:59] <greezmunkey> wrekt: np :)
[06:01] <terrylm> Any help with grub?
[06:02] <sebsebseb> !grub2 | terrylm
[06:02] <sebsebseb> terrylm: I think what it is saying is it can't find your partition for Ubuntu, or use it at least
[06:02] <safetynet> greezmunkey: I see after running shell toward the end of command return it says - ( LISTEN 2075/cupsd ) But not sure what I'm look'n at here - can you explain abit ?
[06:02] <sebsebseb> terrylm: no /  and no Ubuntu
[06:03] <wrekt> this is my fstab. http://paste.ubuntu.com/468722/ is there anything to indicate why im having such problems after upgrading?
[06:03] <terrylm> Thanks all
[06:03] <sebsebseb> terrylm: either that or the kernel can't be used properly, hence kernel panic
[06:03] <greezmunkey> safetynet: it means it is running, point your browser to "localhost:631" (sans quotes) see what happens
[06:03] <sebsebseb> terrylm: it is a fresh install or?
[06:03] <terrylm> yes
[06:03] <safetynet> greezmunkey: By the way the first shell you gave did start the cups and printer shows up now as well THanks for that tid bit...
[06:04] <sebsebseb> terrylm: ok
[06:04] <wrekt> basically after upgrading im toasted. even with the liveCD i cant get a fresh install going as i get an error
[06:04] <greezmunkey> safetynet: cool
[06:04] <sebsebseb> terrylm: Have you done Ubuntu before?
[06:04] <terrylm> 9.04, running on it now.
[06:04] <sebsebseb> terrylm: oh so the problem was with 10.04, and then you put 9.04 on instead?
[06:05] <wrekt> i wish i was on 9.04
[06:05] <sebsebseb> wrekt: yeah 9.04  the last properly good version of Ubuntu that is still supported realy,  except for one little feature that I didn't like :D
[06:05] <terrylm> 9.04 first, then 10.04 on an unused partition.
[06:06] <wrekt> i wish i could go back. im totally locked out now
[06:06] <sebsebseb> wrekt: I think 11.04 might be the next one though, and yeah 10.10  netbook only though
[06:06] <slinkeey> hello
[06:06] <sebsebseb> wrekt: locked out?
[06:06] <terrylm> it would not boot, and trying to boot the old kernels for 9.04 booted into 10.04 but hung...
[06:06] <sebsebseb> terrylm: a dual boot?
[06:06] <deathnight114> fixed it!!!!!!!!
[06:06] <wrekt> yea my machine is toasted
[06:06] <deathnight114> :>
[06:06] <wrekt> im on the live cd atm
[06:06] <slinkeey> is it possible to create a virtual network device that is routed through my PPP connection
[06:06] <terrylm> yes
[06:06] <sebsebseb> terrylm: right uhmm
[06:07] <sebsebseb> terrylm: so which Grub you got on there?
[06:07] <sebsebseb> !grub | terrylm
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> You can share your dial up connection with other pc's on the lan. Yes. :0 did that years and years ago
[06:07] <greezmunkey> slinkeey: what exactly are you trying to accomplish?
[06:07] <slinkeey> so that I can can get around a vpn problem where my assigned ip address is the same as my office network
[06:07] <bastidrazor> Dr_Willis: 4KB/s is not much bandwidth to be sharing :\
[06:07] <slinkeey> no not share a connection
[06:07] <terrylm> I had to edit the root= entry for 9.04 kernel and it booted right up and here I am...
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> bastidrazor:  a few years back.. it was all we had. :)
[06:07] <slinkeey> I tether off my blackberry and I am getting 10.20.x.x as the assigned ip
[06:08] <sebsebseb> terrylm: why dual booting 9.04 and 10.04?  since the problem with Grub ?
[06:08] <slinkeey> well my office just so happens to use 10.20.x.x as the internal network
[06:08] <terrylm> just like to know 10.04 work and migrate some things over before blowing 9.04 away.  like to have options.
[06:09] <Sary> Hello Ubuntu ;)
[06:09] <wrekt> anyone recognize this error: mountall: fsck /home [2818] terminated with status 8. mountall unrecoverable fsck error: /home
[06:09] <slinkeey> so I was hoping to trick my notebook intot hinking it is on 192.168 network so it route 10.x.x.x through the vpn when connected
[06:09] <sebsebseb> terrylm: really the older Grub is better for most of us,  the one that 9.04 uses for example, but 10.04 nope.  In fact quite a few distros are still using Grub by default, rather than Grub 2, even Fedora which is interesting, since Fedora is more cutting edge than Ubuntu, gets most stuff first.
[06:09] <CerebroJD> When I boot up Lucid, I dont have a splash screen even when using 'quiet' and 'splash' in menu.lst, it displash for about 2 seconds after displaying "Starting up" in the top-left corner for 20 seconds, the goes to the logon screen.  Any thoughts?
[06:10] <sebsebseb> terrylm: personally I prefer 9.04 over 10.04, for various reasons, and 9.04 is still good to use untill  the end of October, when support runs out
[06:10] <terrylm> ok
[06:10] <wrekt> all this talk about 9.04 is making me want to cry
[06:10] <Sary> ahmad: ;)
[06:10] <sebsebseb> wrekt: why?
[06:10] <magicianlord> why
[06:11] <wrekt> bec i upgraded and i wish i hadnt
[06:11] <magicianlord> wrekt: upgrade to 9.10
[06:11] <terrylm> that is way i like options
[06:11] <safetynet> greezmunkey: Hey thanks for all you're help on the printer - not sure why it flaked out - but things happen - Could you possibly help with one other little issue ?
[06:11] <sebsebseb> wrekt: same here, when I upgraded the other computer to 9.10, well actsauly the hard disk got compeltly re done what was on it, and I thought, ok i'll do 9.10 then, only like three months untill 10.04, but then 10.04 realy did let me down
[06:11] <greezmunkey> slinkeey: hmm, you are getting an address on your BB that is in the same network as you company lan? That doesn't sound right.
[06:12] <bp0> can different disk use a different scheduler?
[06:12] <slinkeey> Why not greeze?
[06:12] <sebsebseb> terrylm: wrekt Newer is not always better! Yeah
[06:12] <slinkeey> greezmunkey, why not? they both use the 10.x for the internal network
[06:12] <RealEyes> how do i format the HDD and reinstall Ubuntu?
[06:12] <CerebroJD> greezmunkey: it makes sense if they use the same dhcp method with the same masking pattern
[06:12] <RealEyes> w/o touching my win7 partition? lol
[06:13] <Dr_Willis> RealEyes:  what all is on it right now?
[06:13] <sebsebseb> terrylm: ok so whats the problem?
[06:13] <sebsebseb> terrylm: exactly?
[06:13] <terrylm> Well at this point ...
[06:13] <clayg> What is a good app for ubuntu that will let me use my bluetooth gps and display where I'm at on a map?
[06:13] <RealEyes> win7 and Ubuntu
[06:13] <slinkeey> greezmunkey, not the same physical network... just the same scheme.. many private nets are 10.x.x.x/8
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> clayg:  i wa thinking Google earth/maps let you do that.. but ive never looked into it.
[06:14] <RealEyes> i got it nvm
[06:14] <terrylm> I chrooted to 10.04 from 9.04 and tried to run grub, it almost seemed to work ...
[06:14] <greezmunkey> slinkeey: yeah, I get that. Just bad luck then...
[06:14] <safetynet> greezmunkey: I need to reset my Panel I believe it's corrupt because when I run an app it does not show down in the toolbar - I know there is a shell command to reset the Panel or Toolbar but can't remember what it is - ? ?
[06:14] <terrylm> untill the end and it said it could not find a list of partitions...
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> realslix_:  if you want to reinstall ubuntu over the existing install.  You just use teh custom partitioning feature of the installer and tell it where to put / and so forth. (over the existing partitions)
[06:14] <clayg> Dr_Willis, I'll give it a shot.
[06:14] <RealEyes> BRB
[06:14] <sebsebseb> terrylm: Do you know that 10.04 uses a completly different version of Grub than what 9.04 uses?  9.04 is the old Grub,  10.04 is Grub 2
[06:15] <terrylm> so now I'm not sure if grub is working at all, half afraid to reboot ...
[06:15] <wrekt> is it crazy/stupid/extreme to reinstall 9.04 into the partition the OS is in?
[06:15] <slinkeey> greezmunkey, Yep.... I can get one machine on our network that is 192.168.x.x That is on some old subnet... The AS400 is dual ip addressed...
[06:15] <greezmunkey> !panel > safetynet
[06:15] <sebsebseb> terrylm: What boots up?  Also do you know which Grub is being used?
[06:15] <safetynet> !panel
[06:16] <terrylm> Well, by editing the root= at the grub menu I can or could boot 9.04. not sure now.
[06:16] <sebsebseb> wrekt: yeah you could re instal 9.04 with a clean install, but with support it only has untill the end of October
[06:16] <xangua> !panels | safetynet greezmunkey
[06:16] <safetynet> xangua: Thanks
[06:17] <greezmunkey> slinkeey: I don't think spoofing the network at your end will help, the vpn is terminated at both ends, and associated routing entries are in place. The routing at your corp office would not know how to get to your spoofed net, so you would not get a reply to packets even if you could get them there.
[06:18] <greezmunkey> xangua: (s) i get it!
[06:18] <Parabola> evening
[06:18] <magicianlord> yo
[06:18] <magicianlord> how are peeps liking 10.04
[06:19] <sebsebseb> terrylm: ok
[06:19] <greezmunkey> slinkeey: about the only way I can think of to get around that would involve some heavy iptables/ipmasq work, and may not be worth the effort.
[06:20] <slinkeey> ok
[06:21] <slinkeey> greezmunkey, or I can ask att if 10.x is there only internal ip's that they assign..
[06:22] <slinkeey> maybe they will also go 192.168 at request
[06:22] <slinkeey> never know.. I doubt it though..
[06:22] <greezmunkey> slinkeey: now you're on it! :) make them fix their network!
[06:22] <greezmunkey> slinkeey: I mean really, they probably sould have a guest subnet or something you can get to.
[06:22] <slinkeey> not really broke... just coincidence.. I could hit random hotspots that happen to use the 10.x internal scheme..
[06:23] <sebsebseb> terrylm: messing around with Grub is useualy not fun
[06:24] <safetynet> xagua: Thanks so much - Mean allot - My panel is look'n sweet now - you folks thats answer questions are a big plus to us newbies...
[06:25] <NanoDano> magicianlord: I like 10.04
[06:25] <NanoDano> We use it at home and professionaly
[06:25] <Theo> hey guys. im running windows thru oracle virtuabox but it doesnt recognize my usb stick. i was looking a solution on google but nothin helped me. maybe u guys have a solution thats working? churrr
[06:25] <NanoDano> Theo, is it mounted by your ubuntu?
[06:25] <safetynet> greezmunkey: Thanks a bunch and a bunch more by the way - means allot to me for the help - was pulling my hair out before!
[06:25] <greezmunkey> slinkeey: you may be on to something there. Talk with your IT manager, explain what you are up against. Maybe suggest 172.19.1.x for BB vpn terminations. I doubt that private subnet is in use much at coffee shops.
[06:25] <Theo> NanoDano: yeah it is
[06:26] <NanoDano> Theo try unmounting it first
[06:26] <ugh> Hey everybody.  Got a little problem I hope someone can help with.   My stinking touchpad just quit on me.   I can move the cursor around with it, buy I can click with either of the buttons or tap to click.  At first I could still use the right clicker, but now... not so much.   ANything you'd suggest I look at?
[06:26] <greezmunkey> slinkeey: (with a 24 bit mash)
[06:26] <greezmunkey> s/mash/mask
[06:26] <ugh> *can't click rather
[06:26] <slinkeey> yeah
[06:26] <Theo> NanoDano eject it or safly remove ;p?
[06:27] <Random832> ugh: sounds mechanical
[06:27] <greezmunkey> slinkeey: good luck!
[06:27] <greezmunkey> g'night all
[06:27] <ugh> I was afraid you'd say that. :-(
[06:27] <kschwangfelder> hello all; is this the right place to ask an installation related question?
[06:27] <Random832> is the machine still in warranty?
[06:28] <NanoDano> Theo, i just meant unmount the usb stick in ubuntu using umount
[06:28] <slinkeey> greezmunkey, thanks for the tips even though it is not 100% ubuntu.. I was just hoping the ubuntu community had tricks up their sleees :) hehehehehehehehe
[06:28] <ugh> Random: I wish.  Nope, about 4 years old.
[06:28] <slinkeey> sleeves
[06:28] <NanoDano> Theo, If ubuntu has the USB stick mounted, it will tell windows it's busy and wont let it have it probably
[06:28] <Clayg> any decent GPs/map apps for ubuntu? just tried viking and gpsdrive, both are garbage
[06:28] <Theo> NanoDano, sorry how do i unmount it?
[06:28] <Clayg> so I'm looking for suggestions that dont include those apps
[06:29] <Random832> sorry - if you don't mind the risk of completely ruining your machine, you could try taking it apart and cleaning it / finding any parts that are bent out of shape or something
[06:29] <Error404NotFound> i am looking for easy to use Finance/Budget Management application. Gnu Cash is way over my head, i am just another IT guy trying to maintain record with no finance background.
[06:29] <Random832> other than that- buy a mouse?
[06:29] <NanoDano> Theo, one sec
[06:29] <Random832> goodnight all
[06:30] <NanoDano> Theo: type   cat /etc/fstab in a console
[06:30] <ugh> Random832: I'll be heading out in the AM to pick up a mouse.  Easiest solution.
[06:30] <NanoDano> Theo: and then see if you recognize the one that is the USB stick
[06:30] <ugh> Random832: Thanks for responding.  I appreciate it a lot.
[06:31] <NanoDano> Theo: sorry I think the proper thing to do would be just type mount in your console, and it should output everything you have mounted currently
[06:32] <kschwangfelder> so I am trying to install ubuntu to dual boot with windows xp home edition. my mother board is asus k8v se Deluxe.  The only way I could get windows xp to see the hard disk for install was to have it set up as RAID.  now, however, ubuntu install cannot see the disk.  any ideas on what I can try to get this going??
[06:32] <kschwangfelder> the hard disk is sata, btw
[06:32] <Dr_Willis> You have a single hard disk set up as a raid?
[06:33] <kschwangfelder> it was the only way windows xp would see it
[06:33] <kschwangfelder> probably partially due to my lack of expertise
[06:33] <NanoDano> kschwangfelder: Windows only recognizes NTFS partitions and ubuntu usually uses ext3, so if you have 1 hard disk it should be partitioned into separate parts one for windows one for linux
[06:34] <kschwangfelder> NanoDano: right now it has two partitions; one with the xp that I installed and the other is unformatted.  how do I format it for ubuntu to see if the installer cannot see it?
[06:35] <NanoDano> kschwangfelder, it doesn't see ANY partitions? Does it at least see the one that has windows on it?
[06:36] <kschwangfelder> NanoDano: no, it does not even recognize there is a hard disk there.  it sees other things though, a usb stick, an external harddrive...
[06:38] <NanoDano> kschwangelder, I'm really not familiar with RAID or how that affects the installer. If you can boot into the LIVE mode off a CD you can try using the fdisk tool, but if you're not familiar with it either I wouldn't recommend
[06:38] <kschwangfelder> hmm, well the xp install is new, so if the only danger is ruining it, I have no problem wading into unfamiliar territory.  I am talking to you from  my laptop
[06:39] <dade> Hello, Anyone around?
[06:39] <Gimped> kschwangfelder: i suggest you explore the LiveCD and fdisk route first =)
[06:40] <kschwangfelder> Gimped: Is the LiveCD different from the normal Ubuntu 10.4 install CD or is it just an option which can be selected from the install cd?
[06:40] <dade> I'm running TS3 interfaced into MYSQL which requires libmysqlclient15off{u} to work but everytime i try to apt-get install anything else it tries to remove libmysqlclient15off{u} anyway to stop this from happening?
[06:40] <NanoDano> kcschwangfelder, should be same cd
[06:40] <Clayg> what is a good map/gps app for ubuntu?
[06:40] <Gimped> kschwangfelder: i'm not too familar with ubuntu's cd distributions
[06:41] <NanoDano> dade, not sure but try looking into apt-get options, maybe there is an option to keep existing versions instead of deleting when updating
[06:41] <kschwangfelder> NanoDano/Gimped:  I will try this and see what I can do.  Stand By...
[06:41] <NoPart> I'm running into a similar problem
[06:41] <NanoDano> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition
[06:41] <NoPart> the isntallation shows no partitions
[06:41] <NoPart> or drives
[06:42] <NoPart> but it does see my thumbstick
[06:42] <NanoDano> NoPart, is it a blank hard disk or does it have somethign onit
[06:42] <PureSine>  hi I have downloaded latest version of Virtual Box and Ubuntu and installed an ubuntu VM on my Windows 7 machine, also I have a Windows XP VM machine. the problem is ubuntu VM causes the whole system(Windows 7) to crash. I know it is related to VM because I had no such problem before installing the VM. Also I should say sometimes the system had worked for about half a day without crash but usually it causes the system to crash under 1 hour. The
[06:42] <PureSine>  cl
 ue that I have is that when I boot  ubuntu VM it gives a message "piix4-smbus 0000:00:07.0:SMBus bus address uninitialized - upgrade bios or use force_addr = 0xadrr"  . this message appears at boot time and before ubuntu logo appears. interesting thing is Windows XP VM does not show such message. Someone in VBox channel told me it is ubuntu related not VBox
[06:42] <NoPart> I removed all partitions with GParted
[06:42] <FloodBot1> PureSine: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:43] <NoPart> the computer I am trying to install on has no partitions
[06:43] <NanoDano> NoPart, I had a similar problem recently, I formatted my disk but i forgot to 'activate' it or something, hold on
[06:43] <NoPart> just 1 terabyte of unallocated space
[06:45] <NoPart> NanoDano, I've never had this problem with Ubuntu before.
[06:45] <Clayg> what is a good map/gps app for ubuntu?
[06:45] <Gimped> Clayg: google maps not good?
[06:46] <Clayg> Gimped, I never could find an option using google maps for gps intergration
[06:46] <Gimped> clayg: ah i see =|
[06:46] <Clayg> Gimped, maps or earth?
[06:46] <Clayg> Gimped, have you used it yourself with gps?
[06:48] <Gimped> clayg: have you tried kismet or gpsdrive?
[06:49] <Gimped> sorry google earth =D but not sure if google has gps integration
[06:49] <Clayg> Gimped, tried gpsdrive but it never was able to "move", i was able to download a map fo murich and thats pretty much it
[06:49] <Clayg> Gimped, trying kismet now :
[06:49] <NanoDano> NoPart, when you removed all partitions did you perform a format of the drive?
[06:50] <NoPart> NanoDano, negative
[06:50] <NanoDano> NoPart, I think that was the problem I had. I had removed all partitions but it was kind of like 'dead' space, i had to do a format for it to recognize, or something =\
[06:50] <Gimped> Clayg: check your pm's plz
[06:51] <NoPart> NanoDano, what can I use to format? Does the LiveCD have something?
[06:51] <Gimped> NoPart: you can use fdisk on a LiveCD or PartitionMagic if you have that =)
[06:52] <dade> so what would cause apt-get to remove (and not upgrade) a package reguardless of what your installing?
[06:52] <NanoDano> NoPart, there should be lots of info on the net about using fdisk
[06:52] <NoPart> Thankyou very much, I will give it a whirl
[06:52] <NanoDano> dade, maybe a package got incorporated into another one, that you are installing
[06:53] <dade> this is what i have installed for Teamspeak 3 and it keeps uninstalling it https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/i386/libmysqlclient15off/5.1.30really5.0.83-0ubuntu3
[06:53] <Gimped> dade: could be a dependency issue? not sure if ubuntu has those kinds of problems =P
[06:54] <NanoDano> dade, what is it you are installing that's new?
[06:54] <dade> like
[06:54] <dade> for example
[06:55] <dade> if i go for something thats allready installed like postfix apt-get install postfix
[06:55] <dade> this is what it says
[06:55] <dade> postfix is already the newest version.
[06:55] <dade> The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
[06:55] <dade>   libmysqlclient15off
[06:55] <dade> Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
[06:55] <dade> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[06:55] <FloodBot1> dade: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:56] <Clayg> im trying to compile kismet but ran into a problem at the end, if anyone has time to check out my pastebin of the results http://pastebin.com/uuEvHGWV I'd appreciate it
[06:56] <dade> were you able to see my post?
[06:56] <thune3>  dade: if you don't autoremove them, they should stay just fine. no?
[06:56] <Jordan_U> NoPart: I personally doubt that formatting will help anything. The only reason I can think of that it would is if your drive has old data on it that looks like the installer to be metadata for FakeRAID. If the installer sees a drive using FakeRAID that it doesn't understand it ignores it, because writing anything to such a drive could cause you to need to rebuld the RAID array.
[06:57] <dade> how do i get apt-get to stop auto removing?
[06:57] <dade> or
[06:57] <NoPart> Jordan_U, okay, what are my options?
[06:57] <dade> how do i flag it as required?
[06:57] <Jordan_U> NoPart: I don't think that you're using FakeRAID, but the most common cause of a disk not showing up in Ubuntu's installer (when visable in other utilities on the LiveCD) is the installer incorrectly thinking it's FakeRAID.
[06:58] <NoPart> Jordan_U, is there a known fix for this problem?
[06:58] <NanoDano> dade, i didn't see anything about it being removed, i just saw a note saying you dont need it and you can remove it
[06:58] <Jordan_U> NoPart: Reboot the LiveCD and press any key during the first few seconds of booting and you'll get extra boot options. Press F6 and select "No dmraid".
[06:59] <NoPart> okay thanks!
[06:59] <Jordan_U> NoPart: You're welcome, I hope that option helps :)
[07:00] <Jordan_U> dade: Do you know what that package is? Do you want that package installed?
[07:00] <dade> http://paste.ubuntu.com/468741/
[07:00] <dade> there
[07:00] <wrekt> ok my mouse is glitching up big time. it keeps freezing up and then going really slow. its driving me crazy?
[07:00] <dade> no matter if i try to install something that allready installed or if i just try to install lets say VLC it tries to remove that package
[07:00] <Clayg> while trying to run kismet installed from repos it crashes and i see this http://pastebin.com/1tNJfTbV anyone seen this before?
[07:00] <dade> and i cannont continue without uninstalling it
[07:00] <Jordan_U> dade: That's aptitude, apt-get doesn't actually remove that type of package automatically.
[07:01] <dade> ooooo
[07:01] <[NoD]Dr`Kamron> Hello people. :)
[07:01] <dade> so use apt-get instead?
[07:01] <ramesh> how do i know if my computer overheating or not? i'm using ubuntu 10.4
[07:01] <Jordan_U> dade: That will work, but are you sure you really need that package?
[07:02] <dade> yes my Teamspeak 3 server wont connect to my mysql server without it
[07:02] <Gimped> ramesh: generally if you can fry eggs on your pc, its overheating
[07:02] <[NoD]Dr`Kamron> I'd like to use my phone as a modem, but I've tried like everything and it won't detect the phone
[07:02] <[NoD]Dr`Kamron> Can anyone help?
[07:02] <ShadowFoxBiH> what phone are you using?
[07:02] <Jordan_U> dade: Ok, then you should explicitly apt-get install it so that apt / aptitude know that you want it installed.
[07:02] <wrekt> so anyone have a lead on this glitchy mouse on 10.04?
[07:03] <ramesh> Gimped if i can fry egg it means my computer fried already.
[07:03] <dade> got it
[07:03] <Gimped> ramesh: lol you can get a system monitor prog and check that for cpu temps
[07:03] <dade> so aptitude is more of a auto thing for less involved users?
[07:03] <zitelli> Hi, I arrived now from de FISL...
[07:03] <[NoD]Dr`Kamron> I've tried all the programs and apt-get installations and everything
[07:03] <dade> versus apt-get?
[07:03] <abhijit> !sensors | ramesh
[07:03] <ramesh> Gimped any website that i can check what is the normal temp for my cpu?
[07:04] <dade> ramesh:  if your cpu is below 60C while under load you are ok
[07:04] <Gimped> ramesh: i use conky and that works great for me
[07:04] <dade> Thanks for the help guys
[07:05] <abhijit> ramesh, best web site is your laptop company's website or call center they will tell you about it. also each laptop model have its own maintainance document which you can get from company. in that all details are there
[07:05] <Jordan_U> dade: Yes, aptitude also has a pseudo GUI (ncurses) interface option and other features. Debian's official policy is to recommend aptitude, Ubuntu's general policy is to use apt-get, and in all honesty in most cases either will work just fine.
[07:05] <dade> thanks for the help :)
[07:06] <Jordan_U> dade: You're welcome :)
[07:06] <[NoD]Dr`Kamron> So can anyone help?
[07:06] <[NoD]Dr`Kamron> I'd like to use my phone as a modem, but I've tried like everything and it won't detect the phone <-
[07:07] <wrekt> does anyone have a lead on the glitchy mouse problem in 10.4? its pretty unusable as it is
[07:09] <nimbiotics_> Hello everyone, im using ubuntu 9.10, with a GeForce 9400 GT and nVidia driver version 185.8.36. I cannot keep screen resolution configuration between sessions. What can I do? TIA!
[07:10] <ramesh> my cpu temp is 60 to 62 celcius.
[07:10] <Gimped> ramesh: hm..mine is 53*C
[07:11] <NanoDano> wrekt, what kind of mouse? have you tried another?
[07:11] <Gimped> ramesh: if you're worried about your pc overheating i suggest getting a sys mon to keep track of it
[07:11] <dade> ramesh: what cpu useage are you at? is this a laptop or desktop? 60c idle is hot
[07:12] <Gimped> indeed, i'd like to fry some eggs on that one =P
[07:12] <ramesh> dade: laptop. i'm only using xchat...
[07:12] <wrekt> NanoDano, honestly i havent bec i dont have any others atm. ive NEVER had issues with this mouse ive had it for years and used it on prev versions no issues
[07:12] <dade> ramesh: have you tried blowing out the fan slots with a can of air?
[07:13] <dade> ramesh: is this by chance an HP?
[07:13] <ramesh> dade... haha.. have not try that. there is some sticky thing at the fan site.. just noticed...
[07:13] <NanoDano> wrekt, 1st I'd say try another mouse, 2 try a mouse of a different kind (USB or PS/2) or even just another usb slot?
[07:14] <dade> ramesh: reason i say so ive seen tons! and TONS of laptops overheating and its cause they have a HUGE dust bunny covering the internal heatsink
[07:14] <PSYK3D> hello everyone
[07:14] <dade> and of course that little laptop fan isnt strong enough
[07:14] <dade> hey psyk3d
[07:15] <wrekt> NanoDano, diff usb slot seems to be working better yay
[07:15] <wrekt> NanoDano, good thinking
[07:15] <wrekt> have to restart be back later
[07:15] <PSYK3D> it this the right place to ask questions when in trouble
[07:15] <NanoDano> wrekt, awesome! You know, persoanlly I ruined 1 of my usb slots by spilling water
[07:15] <dade> Psyk3d: i asked my problem here :P
[07:15] <ramesh> dade thanks. i will blow my laptop now...
[07:15] <wrekt> im gonna have to investiogate this further bec its in the back and never had an issue

[07:49] <Koterpillar> barcode, mount -a will complain and give the name of FS. Then, Fsck.
[07:50] <happyface> clayg: why don't you just put dd-wrt on a router to do that
[07:50] <Koterpillar> barcode, also, just "mount" will list mounted filesystems. You can see which one is missing.

[08:06] <kschwangfelder> NanoDano:  I have returned from booting the LiveCD to see I could create the correct partitions on the undetected hard drive.  When I boot into Ubuntu by CD, I am able to see the drive in the disk tool and make new linux partitions.  However, when I boot the Ubuntu installer, it once again does not see my hard drive
[08:07] <arpad2> hello
[08:08] <arpad2> after changing refresh rate, my screen goes black in 10.04, smb for help?
[08:13] <ykaya> Archana_, thank you very much. Already tried keytouch but I was not successful.
[08:13] <Archana_> ykaya, If no one is answering here, you may try ubuntuforums.org Good luck.
[08:13] <kschwangfelder> hi everybody.  based on some earlier advice from NanoDano, I booted the ubuntu 10.4 LiveCD to see if the disk tool could detect my SATA hard drive which the installer refuses to recognize.  the disk tool does see the hard drive and allowed me to create appropriate partitions.  however, when I run the installer, it still only sees a usb stick and external usb drive.  any thoughts on a next possible step?
[08:14] <Archana_> kschwangfelder, I too had such problem at my friends. I tried every other trick found on the sites. No use. Maybe you could try wubi... :(
[08:15] <kschwangfelder> wubi causes its own set of problems.  it would not load properly, hanging up on not being able to find a proper root directory or something
[08:16] <Flannel> kschwangfelder: Check your BIOS settings to make sure you don't have some RAID type stuff going on, also check to make sure your MoBo supports the HDD, you may need to set jumpers to force the drive down to slower speeds/protocols if that's the case
[08:16] <ykaya> Archana_, thanks a lot.
[08:16] <Archana_> kschwangfelder, Sorry. I wait with full hope that the 10.10 will have fix this problem so that i can install on my friend's computer.
[08:17] <Flannel> Archana_: I suggest you check the SATA speeds on his mobo vs the drive
[08:17] <Flannel> Archana_: Next time you get a chance, of course :)
[08:17] <kschwangfelder> Flannel: I actually already forced it to a lower speed.  it has a working windows xp install on it.
[08:17] <kschwangfelder> it's just not visible to Ubuntu installer
[08:17] <Archana_> Flannel, Thanks for replyin. =)
[08:18] <kschwangfelder> Ubuntu booted from live CD does see the drive
[08:18] <kschwangfelder> btw, not that it matters much, but the mobo is asus k8v se deluxe
[08:18] <Archana_> Flannel, But ubuntu 9.04 'sees' his partitions on the hard.. but 10.04's installer says unallocated space....

[09:16] <sandking> hi
[09:16] <sandking> can someone please help me how can i connect to a shared directory on a windows pc?
[09:16] <professor_G> sunk8,  is your web browser installed ok
[09:16] <professor_G> sandking,  ssh?
[09:17] <ertu> i know this is kind of irrelevant with ubuntu but..  I was giving xfce a try. While I was browsing through themes it crashed and now I can't log into xfce. Any ideas?
[09:17] <sunk8> professor_G, yes sir. I cant even install updates. Just pinging okay.
[09:17] <sandking> professor_G: i need only to copy files over the lan
[09:17] <gianluca_> !list
[09:17] <vu1kan> i've got a netgear wnr834bv2 that got reset to factory defaults, when i plug an ethernet cable into it, my ubuntu doesn't even see that i've got a viable ethernet connection...i went into network connections and set everything to automatic, and it still won't connect to the router's config...any suggestions as to why this is?
[09:17] <sandking> and i enabled sharing and i even see the workgroup
[09:17] <sandking> oh wait
[09:18] <sandking> it needed some more time to connect
[09:18] <professor_G> sunk8,  does your internet say local only?
[09:19] <xibalba> hey
[09:19] <vu1kan> it was working fine before the reset
[09:19] <xibalba> anyone here good w/bind ?
[09:19] <xibalba> i'm struggling w/such a newb thing
[09:19] <professor_G> xibalba,  i had the same thing
[09:20] <xibalba> does someone mind helping me out here and taking a look
[09:20] <xibalba> http://pastebin.com/zy4uQ1uD
[09:20] <sunk8> professor_G, local only, where? I have an ethernet cable connected. I created a PPPoE connection. It connects fine and opens up just one page.... google.com Am not sure if it's picking that up from just cache...
[09:20] <xibalba> i just need it to resolve 1 domain, zcs.lethalnetworks.com, so i can install Zimbra
[09:20] <xibalba> Very Simple, I've done DNS on freebsd a bunch of times. dunno why i'm struggling so hard
[09:20] <sunk8> professor_G, I have a valid ip address, checked thro ifconfig
[09:20] <xibalba> professor_G , if you take a look i'd appreciate it
[09:21] <professor_G> sunk8, in windows does it say (hover over wireles/signal meater) say local only
[09:21] <Gryllida> how do I add user to sudoers group in bash?
[09:22] <xibalba> Gryllida , try sudoedit
[09:22] <xibalba> professor_G , i know i'm missing something simple
[09:22] <Gryllida> ?
[09:22] <suprengr> sunk8: you are describing awhat sounds like a driver problem
[09:23] <sunk8> professor_G, I am using Windows XP. So there was a Local Area Connection already... That's my ethernet cable. Created a PPPoE connection  and it works fine...
[09:23] <thune3> Gryllida: not sure of command line, need to add group "admin" to user
[09:23] <randy_> Gryllida: yeah, the admin group has 'sudo' priveleges according to the default sudo policy
[09:23] <hspaans> Gryllida: sudo usermod -a -g admin LOGINNAME
[09:23] <hspaans> sudo usermod -a -G admin LOGINNAME
[09:24] <hspaans> sorry, you need the second one
[09:24] <randy_> Gryllida: even easier, you can just add them to that group from user admin in the menus
[09:24] <professor_G> xibalba,  do you mind me pming you?
[09:24] <sunk8> suprengr, driver problem? the kernels of both Ubuntu and openSUSE are the same. I wonder what's wrong.
[09:25] <xibalba> professor_G , not at all go ahead
[09:25] <xibalba> on aim or irc ?
[09:25] <xibalba> xibalbasd on aim

[09:30] <sunk8> hspaans, pMTU?
[09:30] <sunk8> hspaans, could you plz translate it into nooby english?
[09:30] <Gimped> noboot: not sure, should ask the devs that question =)
[09:31] <noboot> Gimped, ooh i picked /dev/sda  in stead of /dev/sda1 now.. and that works!
[09:31] <hspaans> sunk8: turn iptables off, drop all rules and try again
[09:31] <noboot> i wonder whats the difference
[09:32] <noboot> gonna try a reboot
[09:32] <noboot> bye
[09:32] <tr33m4n> surely you'd install grub to mbr of /dev/sda?
[09:32] <tr33m4n> oh wait
[09:32] <tr33m4n> u said that

[09:34] <Gimped> noboot: yeap something like that =P
[09:34] <RealEyes> i cant get root access
[09:34] <RealEyes> what is the default p word?
[09:34] <tr33m4n> RealEyes, try doing sudo before your command, the default password is your password
[09:35] <tr33m4n> ie, your user password
[09:35] <tr33m4n> if your trying to log on as root from gdm, that's not gonna work
[09:35] <tr33m4n> you could enable the account, however it's not recommended
[09:36] <Cheery> hi. could you propose a small webserver that I could use simply by starting it in directory where I've got the contents I want to put up?
[09:36] <Cheery> there's no other http servers on my system
[09:37] <tFF> RealEyes, u may login as a default user then "sudo su -" to become root
[09:37] <tFF> the root's pass is the same as for the default user
[09:37] <Cheery> also, could someone FINALLY update the chromium-browser to newest version from that old version 5?
[09:38] <tr33m4n> Cheery, have a look at lighttpd, might be what you need
[09:38] <tFF> RealEyes, yeah, and u gonna do this from terminal
[09:38] <vu1kan> i've got a netgear wnr834bv2 that got reset to factory defaults, when i plug an ethernet cable into it, my ubuntu doesn't even see that i've got a viable ethernet connection...i went into network connections and set everything to automatic, and it still won't connect to the router's config; it was working fine before the reset...any suggestions as to why this is?
[09:38] <xibalba> professor_G , is that something you offer here regularly? remote linux support via ssh?
[09:38] <Wintermute_> Hi all! :)
[09:38] <Wintermute_> Small question regarding system update...
[09:38] <tr33m4n> also to update chromium I added the repositories found in Ubuntu Tweak
[09:39] <Wintermute_> What are updates that are not security updates?
[09:39] <tr33m4n> I get the daily builds
[09:39] <Cheery> Wintermute_: they are other updates
[09:39] <Cheery> Wintermute_: simple eh?
[09:39] <Cheery> Wintermute_: it ought read somewhere unless that feature is broken.
[09:39] <hspaans> Wintermute_: little bugfixes that needed to be fixed due to broken functionality or experience
[09:40] <Wintermute_> Cheery: Ahhh
[09:40] <AVkrakkle> how can i tell my soundcard what drivers to use?  every site i go to says system>preferences>sound but I'm not seeing any options for ALSA
[09:40] <Wintermute_> Cheery: Ok. But it don't change version of the package itself correct?
[09:40] <professor_G> xibalba,  no moastley by controlling thir computer (moving the mouse .etc)
[09:40] <Wintermute_> Cheery: Like, ubuntu 10.04 will use php 5.3 forever correct?
[09:41] <Cheery> Wintermute_: depends.
[09:41] <tr33m4n> Wintermute: you can downgrade to 5.2, I had to do that for a successful Drupal installation
[09:41] <Wintermute_> Cheery: on what?
[09:41] <Cheery> there's minor updates and then there's major updates
[09:41] <Cheery> major updates break backwards compatibility at least partially
[09:41] <ussa> help please how can i install messenger on ubuntu
[09:41] <RealEyes> do you guys know how to get 'sensors' on your panel?
[09:41] <Wintermute_> tr33m4n: You can run drupal now on 5.3 :P
[09:41] <Cheery> ussa: install pidgin internet client
[09:41] <tr33m4n> ussa, what sort of messenger?
[09:41] <RealEyes> when I try to add and search for it, nothing comes up
[09:41] <hspaans> ussa: start empathy
[09:41] <tr33m4n> Wintermute: true, but many plugins don't worj
[09:42] <tr33m4n> *wor
[09:42] <ussa> hotmail
[09:42] <Wintermute_> Cheery: Ok, but major upgrades are only from major version changes (like from 09.10 to 10.04)
[09:42] <hspaans> ussa: it support microsoft messanger / communicator
[09:42] <Wintermute_> correct?
[09:42] <Cheery> Wintermute_: minor updates fix little things that are just unspecced or wrong behavior.
[09:43] <livo1> hello
[09:43] <Wintermute_> Cheery: But it should not change the version of the software it self...
[09:43] <tFF> RealEyes, what kinda sesors? cpu, mem, network, disk - just add system monitor applet
[09:43] <RealEyes> cpu
[09:43] <Wintermute_> Cheery: Lets say that my app works with apache2.2
[09:43] <Cheery> Wintermute_: it does. That's really important anyway.
[09:43] <sunk8> hspaans, I'm back. No go.
[09:44] <RealEyes> tFF: thats not the right one.
[09:44] <sunk8> hspaans, firewall is not an issue.
[09:44] <tFF> RealEyes, add system monitor applet to the panel
[09:44] <Cheery> Say the user is having an old version of the software, that's going to be visible from version number if it gets updated whenever fixes arrive.
[09:44] <Wintermute_> Cheery: And then, one day... I just run a plain apt-get upgrade to apply security fixes and it change my apache to 2.3???
[09:44] <Wintermute_> Cheery: This is not the expected behaviour I guess...
[09:44] <tFF> RealEyes, and the choose sensors u want
[09:44] <Cheery> Wintermute_: the major version number ought not change without user intervention, of course.
[09:44] <tFF> RealEyes, *then
[09:45] <sunk8> By the way a really weird thing happened... I can search through the google search bar through firefox. But I installed opera, so it's not a browser issue.
[09:45] <sunk8> hspaans, By the way a really weird thing happened... I can search through the google search bar through firefox. But I installed opera, so it's not a browser issue.
[09:45] <Cheery> that's the case with python, (2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7 are all different packages)
[09:45] <rumbert> In APT preferences, how can a package source such as Ubuntu release or 'security update' be preferred?
[09:45] <tFF> RealEyes, i assume u r in gnome
[09:45] <Wintermute_> Cheery: I think it should change to <same_distro_main_version_package>-ubuntu<revision> no?
[09:45] <RealEyes> yes i am
[09:46] <Wintermute_> Cheery: Ok... thanks! :) so no security update are actually functionality fixes :D
[09:46] <Wintermute_> Cheery: thanks!! :)
[09:46] <good_fellow> !
[09:46] <Cheery> Wintermute_: that's the case. Though there are minor and major version numbers.
[09:47] <Cheery> and the versioning is bit different on every program anyway.
[09:47] <Wintermute_> Cheery: I guess the minor can change, but it don't brake backward compatibility
[09:47] <Cheery> though if features change during the run of version number, that version change should be major.
[09:47] <RealEyes> what is that terminal command to update restriced packages or something?
[09:47] <Wintermute_> Cheery: Good... Thanks!
[09:48] <Algorithm_42> hi
[09:48] <Wintermute_> Cheery: See ya
[09:48] <Cheery> There's one exception though.
[09:48] <Cheery> oh. he left already.
[09:48] <arpad2> after refresh rate change, screen goes black in 10.04, any suggestions what to do?
[09:48] <Cheery> well, maybe he understands that if software update doesn't break backwards compatibility, it's discussable whether major version number change is required.
[09:49] <RealEyes> arpad2, someone just had that same problem...
[09:49] <spungo> arpad2: yeah, I suggest you leave the refresh rate as it was. *chortle*
[09:49] <thune3> sunk8: is it an mtu issue anyway? does "ping wikipedia.org" work and "ping -s 1472 wikipedia.org" not work?
[09:50] <asktoby> Just recently installed the latest Ubuntu. When I was first using it, the envelope in the tray would turn green occasionally.
[09:50] <rumbert> I think it would be something with Pin: release a=??????  What are the values for Ubuntu?  is different than debian.
[09:50] <asktoby> Presumably to let me know of new mails and broadcasts. Not any more! Any idea why?
[09:51] <X-Raimo> hello, I compiled new kernel using make bzImage modules modules_install install. But there's no initrd file. Why? And how to create it?
[09:51] <hspaans> rumbert: the backend is the same
[09:51] <tr33m4n> rumpert: release a=Lucid/Karmic etc
[09:52] <arpad2> spungo: how to do this?
[09:52] <arpad2> chortle
[09:53] <tFF> RealEyes, 1 more thing. are u using une lucid or desktop one?
[09:53] <RealEyes> how do i tell?
[09:53] <RealEyes> I just put in: sudo apt-get install sensors-applet vlc
[09:53] <tFF> RealEyes, is a ver for netbook version or generic for desktop?
[09:54] <tFF> RealEyes, typos, sorty
[09:54] <tFF> sorry )
[09:55] <tr33m4n> does anyone else find that when updating server 10.04 sometimes /usr/bin/<command> gets their priveledges removed? after an update I found apt-get without any at all! had to chmod
[09:55] <RealEyes> im on a desktop
[09:55] <RealEyes> want to read my terminal?
[09:55] <RealEyes> I can pastebin...
[09:55] <tFF> RealEyes, have u succeeded with your sensors?
[09:55] <RealEyes> No sensors found!
[09:55] <noboot> hi, i upgraded ubuntu and now it doesnt boot up. i did grub-install from live-cd and now i just get a grub prompt at reboot. What should i do?
[09:56] <hspaans> tr33m4n: create a bugreport
[09:56] <tr33m4n> noboot: did you specify the root partition for the grub-install?
[09:56] <noboot> tr33m4n, yes
[09:56] <tr33m4n> hspaans: good idea
[09:56] <tFF> RealEyes, just press right mouse on your panel and "add to panel" "system monitor" applet. that's it
[09:56] <noboot> sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/dddddd  /dev/sda1
[09:56] <noboot> like that
[09:57] <noboot> it said it was successful
[09:57] <RealEyes> tFF its not working
[09:57] <rumbert> hspaans: the valid values are different.  For Debian, it would be 'stable'
[09:57] <tr33m4n> noboot: try doing it to /dev/sda rather than /dev/sda1
[09:57] <pipim> or.id
[09:57] <tFF> RealEyes, how come? what do you mean by?
[09:57] <noboot> oh sorry, i did it with /dev/sda
[09:57] <noboot> not 1
[09:57] <hspaans> rumbert: no
[09:58] <rumbert> noboot: install package mbr and put it on your MBR
[09:58] <RealEyes> tFF: read my terminal, I'll pastebin it
[09:58] <rumbert> hspaans: what do you mean?
[09:58] <noboot> how do i put it on my MBR?
[09:58] <tr33m4n> noboot: when you upgraded did you upgrade grub as well? you might be using grub-legacy
[09:59] <hspaans> rumbert: you put in a release name and stable is only an alias
[09:59] <noboot> it says grub 1.98 (thats the new one, i think) in the grub prompt i get at boot up
[09:59] <rumbert> noboot: I do not remember.  I found out from the included documentation, which would be in /usr/share/doc/mbr .
[09:59] <rumbert> hspaans: no longer.  The release name, like 'squeeze' or 'woody' is no longer valid.
[10:00] <rumbert> noboot: you put grub on the partition, right?  something needs to run from the MBR to pass off the boot to the partition
[10:00] <hspaans> rumbert: woody isn't part of the report, but squeeze is
[10:00] <noboot> rumbert, how do i do that? probably not
[10:00] <hspaans> rumbert: and squeeze just runs fine here
[10:00] <rumbert> hspaans: I don't know what you mean by report.  But both are release names.
[10:01] <txomin> hola
[10:01] <noboot> rumbert, it gives a grub prompt at boot-up.. doesnt that mean grub is installed somewhere?
[10:01] <tr33m4n> noboot: you may have to chroot into your installation from a live cd and issue update-grub
[10:01] <hspaans> rumbert: they need to be release names that are part of the repositories you're using and woody is not been part of the repo for a long time now
[10:01] <rumbert> noboot: yes, but is that grub remnant from former install and you have 2 grub installs?
[10:02] <Aruzsi_> Hi There! rdesktop without window frame is a bug or a feature? Looks like a window without window manager.
[10:02] <internet2007137> 说话
[10:02] <rumbert> noboot: i see you said it is new version
[10:03] <noboot> i just did update-grub and it repaired something
[10:03] <rumbert> noboot: what you need to do depends on whether you installed grub most recently to MBR or partition.
[10:03] <rumbert> noboot: that is best.  try it
[10:03] <internet2007137> shift
[10:03] <AVkrakkle> how can i tell my soundcard what driver to use?  i'm trying to switch my X-Fi from the default to snd_ctxfi
[10:04] <tr33m4n> noboot: i'd recommend booting live cd again, select boot from first hard disk, and issue grub-install from installation rather than live cd
[10:04] <tr33m4n> noboot: wait, grub-update even
[10:04] <noboot> how do i select boot from first hard disk?
[10:04] <swj> Hi all!
[10:04] <noboot> im in a live cd right now
[10:04] <tr33m4n> noboot: there should be an option on the menu that appears when you boot the live cd
[10:05] <tr33m4n> noboot: you'll have to restart
[10:05] <noboot> i dont think i got an option
[10:05] <noboot> i'll try it now
[10:05] <tr33m4n> noboot: ok
[10:05] <noboot> brb
[10:05] <tr33m4n> ok

[10:07] <Neno_q8> hi i have problem with java , http://pastebin.com/Eiw4eSWh
[10:07] <AVkrakkle> livo1: I'm going to guess, no.... what are you referring to?
[10:08] <AVkrakkle> livo1: I just installed Ubuntu yesterday, keep in mind.  Never used Linux before.
[10:08] <rumbert> Neno_q8: looks like perhaps probem with application packaging

[10:08] <zlcl> hi - using 10.04. having external monitor connected to laptop, I can't hit 'apply' in the Monitor Preferences screen (It doesn't do anything).
[10:09] <mvk> i got a mainline ppa kernel installed, but now ubu wants to install a new kernel from ubu repos
[10:09] <mvk> how do i prevent this from happening?
[10:09] <Sheepherd> hi guys im trying to install openusb but i keep getting following error with "./configure": http://paste.pocoo.org/show/241476/ i tried to reinstall pkg-config but it didnt change anything
[10:09] <hspaans> mvk: put it on hold
[10:09] <mvk> hspaans: ?
[10:09] <swj> to zlcl: you must find drivers for your vodeo
[10:10] <sheos123> holaaaaaaaaaaaa
[10:10] <caac> hey guys, how can I retrieve data from a .img file?
[10:10] <zlcl> swj: cheers.
[10:10] <hspaans> mvk: you need to put those packages on hold
[10:10] <arpad2> after refresh rate change, screen goes black in 10.04, any suggestions what to do?
[10:10] <livo1> AVkrakkle: USB sound card or a PCI?
[10:10] <tr33m4n> caac: should be able to open it with the archive manager
[10:10] <Neno_q8> hi i have problem with java , http://pastebin.com/Eiw4eSWh
[10:10] <mvk> hspaans: how?
[10:10] <caac> kk tr33m4n
[10:10] <hspaans> mvk: see the apt-get how manual
[10:10] <AVkrakkle> livo1: PCI
[10:11] <zlcl> swj: are these present in the default repository ?
[10:11] <sheos123> de colombia  como estas
[10:11] <AVkrakkle> livo1: I know ALSA supports it.  I just need to tell it to use the ALSA drivers.
[10:11] <RealEyes> bye #ubuntu lol
[10:11] <caac> tr33m4n: it says "The file is of an unknown type" when I double-click it
[10:11] <hspaans> caac: it depends on the layout. if it is an iso then file-roller can do it for you
[10:11] <AVkrakkle> livo1: I just don't know the command, and I can't find it anywhere.
[10:11] <hspaans> arpad2: don't change your refresh rate
[10:12] <swj> to zlcl: no. but try to look at the device manufacturer
[10:12] <caac> hspaans: a guy told me it was a backup, 'cause I'll need to reformat my flash drive
[10:12] <arpad2> hspaans: unfortunately I ve already done it :(
[10:12] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Official website should provide a sound card driver
[10:13] <hspaans> caac: file <filename>
[10:13] <AVkrakkle> livo1: I read that it's no longer necessary with the ALSA drivers.
[10:13] <caac> error :/
[10:14] <caac> the file has a lock icon on it though
[10:14] <AVkrakkle> livo1: The card says it's using snd-hda-intel, though.
[10:14] <caac> so I'll try to open it as root
[10:14] <hspaans> arpad2: try the xrandr command
[10:14] <tr33m4n> caac: you could use the dd command to extract its contents
[10:14] <AVkrakkle> livo1: How do I tell it to use snd-ctxfi?
[10:14] <caac> tr33m4n: how?
[10:14] <tr33m4n> caac: or mount the img, then copy the contents
[10:15] <hspaans> caac: that means it is or read-only or not readable for you
[10:15] <livo1> AVkrakkle: If not, then change the system - preferences - sound - the hardware, the following configuration file options
[10:15] <arpad2> hspaans : ok
[10:15] <caac> so I'll open it as root?
[10:15] <abhijit> hello guys whats up?
[10:15] <tr33m4n> caac: mount -a -o ro,loop image.img /media/image
[10:15] <swj> to  zlcl: also seek to i-net may already have someone like that and someone laid drv
[10:15] <caac> tr33m4n: I only got a flash drive
[10:15] <caac> which is messed up
[10:16] <livo1> AVkrakkle: system - preferences - sound - the hardware, the following configuration file options
[10:16] <froud> Hi, Ubuntu 9.10. What package(s) must I install in order to get a CUPS Development Environment so that I can make from src?
[10:16] <caac> I tried opening it as root, it still gives me the error: The file is of an unknown type
[10:16] <AVkrakkle> livo1: I'm looking at the Hardware tab right now.  The only option is "Profile."
[10:17] <tr33m4n> froud: sudo apt-get build-dep <packagename>
[10:17] <hspaans> caac: what does file <filename> say when you run it as root?
[10:18] <caac> hspaans: does it require a sudo?
[10:18] <livo1> AVkrakkle: 你的系统版本是什么？
[10:18] <ertu> i know this is kind of irrelevant with ubuntu but..  I was giving xfce a try. While I was browsing through themes it crashed and now I can't log into xfce. Any ideas?
[10:18] <internet2007137> server
[10:19] <caac> hspaans: dump.img: data
[10:19] <caac> oCean_: hey!!
[10:19] <oCean_> caac: hi
[10:19] <caac> oCean_: after 12h, it finally finished creating the dump.img :D
[10:19] <froud> tr33m4n: thx
[10:19] <hspaans> caac: how did you create it?
[10:19] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Your system version?
[10:19] <tr33m4n> froud: no worries :)
[10:19] <AVkrakkle> livo1: You mean like.... OS version?
[10:20] <caac> hspaans: a dd command, can't remember, I'll ask
[10:20] <livo1> AVkrakkle: yes
[10:20] <caac> oCean_: how can I retrieve the data from the file?
[10:20] <AVkrakkle> livo1: 10.04
[10:20] <AVkrakkle> livo1: Lol, what was with the Chinese?
[10:20] <oCean_> caac: wow. That's a looong time. However, copying the image to another image should be lots quicker
[10:20] <oCean_> caac: well, there is the challenge :)
[10:21] <caac> English please
[10:21] <oCean_> caac: the problem is, that the image file is not really a blockdevice, so it won't play nice with partitions
[10:21] <abhijit> ertu, try in #xubuntu
[10:21] <livo1> AVkrakkle: I am also, but I have just told you the options
[10:22] <ertu> abhijit, alright thanks
[10:22] <AVkrakkle> livo1: Hmm... I keep reading the same thing, but I don't see anything on that tab but Profile.
[10:22] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Oh, I am Chinese, and English is not good, where you can be certain of the exercises.
[10:22] <oCean_> caac: the dump is merely a backup, just in case. If we can come up with a solution, you would be able to try that on the real device, but maybe someone can come up with anything you could try on the image file (I haven't yet)
[10:23] <AVkrakkle> livo1: Ah.  Cool.
[10:23] <caac> oh, so the dump can be used after I reformatted my flash drive?
[10:23] <oCean_> caac: anyway, you could try a 'mount -o loop /path/to/image.img /mnt' and see if any errors show up
[10:23] <livo1> AVkrakkle: thx
[10:23] <llutz> caac: thats an image of a raw-drive? use losetup with offset option to mount it/access data
[10:24] <lukas_xx> Hi all, I have a problem with install nvidia drivers, especially with a package nvidia-settings. There is Depends: screen-resolution-extra (<= 0.11). In repository I have only screen-resolution-extra 0.13. Do you know a solution how can I install nvidia-settings. Thanks a lot for your help.
[10:24] <caac> oCean_ and llutz, don't confuse me lol
[10:24] <caac> what should I do?
[10:24] <oCean_> llutz: any ideas? the original device seemed to have lost its partitiontable
[10:24] <oCean_> caac: try the mount command first? No harm in that
[10:25] <caac> ok
[10:25] <ski_> Also it depend have you make dd of ex. /dev/sda or /dev/sda1
[10:25] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Your sound card may not be supported. Ubuntu's support for some hardware is not very good. Especially in the many factory and did not develop the appropriate driver under linux. What you are to use sound recording?
[10:26] <caac> oCean_: mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[10:26] <AVkrakkle> livo1: I'm using a Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio.
[10:26] <oCean_> caac: try adding -t vfat ?
[10:26] <llutz> oCean_: i havent read all. its an image of a drive which lost partition-table and he wants to restore that table? dd if=file.img of=/dev/sdX count=1
[10:26] <AVkrakkle> livo1: I read that it is now supported with ALSA.
[10:27] <llutz> caac: http://tinyurl.com/rawimage
[10:27] <Cheery> ARGHL
[10:27] <AVkrakkle> livo1: But it wants to use the HDA Intel drivers for some reason.  I don't know how to tell it to use ALSA.
[10:27] <hspaans> caac: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery
[10:27] <Cheery> I look for a small httpd I could run from command line to test a small static web-app
[10:28] <oCean_> llutz: the usbdrive had apparently lost its partitiontable. Just to make sure he dd the device to an image on disk, that way creating a backup on disk. Partitiontable is still not there
[10:28] <ski_> if dd has been done like dd if=/dev/sdX ... there is also partition table on dump.
[10:28] <Cheery> lovelyfully all apps I found just are horrible >:Ö
[10:28] <caac> llutz: I'll do "dd if=dump.img of=/dev/sdb count=1"
[10:28] <oCean_> caac: I don't see how that would restore the partition table
[10:28] <llutz> caac: stop, i misread your problem
[10:28] <hspaans> caac: see the page as partition tables can be recovered (read guessed)
[10:28] <caac> oh ok
[10:28] <ravibn> Hi! I am unable to print on Karmic 9.10 The printer setup seems to be alright
[10:28] <oCean_> caac: you re-tried the mount with -t vfat ?
[10:29] <caac> add - t vfat to the end, k
[10:29] <abhijit> !printer | ravibn
[10:29] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Your sound card and the same as my. But I is USB interface, can be used directly. The default is ALSA.
[10:29] <caac> oCean_: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
[10:29] <caac>        missing codepage or helper program, or other error
[10:29] <caac>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[10:29] <caac>        dmesg | tail  or so
[10:29] <Benkinooby> hmmm, i am trying to get automount for usb's running on my system (ubuntu 10.04, fluxbox gui), but on the ubuntuwebsite i didn't see any usefull information and other forums are far outdated. what processes are required to run to get a successful auto mount? when i plug in a pendrive, it get a window telling me "unable to mount [pendrivename]. not authorized". so it lloks like automount is up and running, but my permissions are f**** up. where can i
[10:29] <FloodBot1> caac: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:29] <Benkinooby> start to search for the problem?
[10:29] <caac> oh dear, sorry
[10:30] <AVkrakkle> livo1:  Hmm... I don't know what to do, then.  It's not using the ALSA drivers.
[10:30] <ravibn> abhijit : all the setup seems to be ok. When I print from any doc it does create a job and the printer head also moves but no characters are printed
[10:30] <llutz> caac: try using "testdisk" to recover the partitions
[10:30] <abhijit> ravibn, dunno
[10:30] <caac> llutz: tried that, analyze and deeper analyze gave me shit
[10:30] <livo1> AVkrakkle: You can try to post on the forum. I found that people who use linux very enthusiastic.
[10:31] <Jibadeeha> is it possible to install ubuntu to an usb memory stick so i can use it on various laptops - sort of like a portable installation
[10:31] <arpad2> !x
[10:31] <oCean_> caac: llutz might have a good point there. You can install "testdisk" from repository
[10:31] <AVkrakkle> livo1:  Cool.  I'll try that.  Thank you.
[10:31] <ravibn> this is a very strange printer problem I am facing with this printer HP deskjet f300
[10:31] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Maybe try other sound card drivers to support the sound card can be used.
[10:31] <caac> it's installed
[10:32] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Because a lot of hardware drivers in linux under essentially the same way. The sound card I can use many types of driving.
[10:33] <AVkrakkle> livo1: I noticed.  I just wish I knew how to do something as basic as pick which one it uses.
[10:34] <llutz> caac: you can try "gpart" too for partition-recovery
[10:34] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Synaptic Software Manager.
[10:34] <ravibn> I have a strange help with my printer HP deskjet F300 any help is appreciated
[10:34] <caac> gparted?
[10:34] <slidinghorn> !ask | ravibn - :)
[10:34] <llutz> caac: gpart
[10:34] <tr33m4n> ravibn: what's the problem?
[10:34] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Flexible use of search function.
[10:34] <caac> kk, installing
[10:35] <AVkrakkle> livo1: Hmmm.... Nice!
[10:35] <caac> installed
[10:35] <ravibn> tr334n : I have the printer setup alright when I print from any document it creates a print Q job
[10:35] <oCean_> caac: as for the testdisk part, from the manualpage is seems to work with imagefiles too. llutz might correct me here, but I think a "testdisk /path/to/image.img" should get things started
[10:35] <ravibn> tr334n : also it prints on the printer
[10:36] <ravibn> tr334n : that is it moves the printer head and paper but no characters are printed
[10:36] <llutz> oCean_: this kind of recovery always should be done from images, never from real devices
[10:36] <caac> so I'll do oCean_'s command
[10:36] <ravibn> tr334n : only a blank sheet is ejected
[10:36] <oCean_> llutz: understood
[10:37] <ravibn> tr33m4n : so what do you think abt this problem ?
[10:37] <tr33m4n> ravibn: try printing an ubuntu test page from the printer manager
[10:37] <ak-48> hi all :D
[10:37] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Oil
[10:37] <tr33m4n> ravibn: if that works then it's not your printer
[10:37] <AVkrakkle> livo1: What's that?
[10:38] <tr33m4n> ravibn: the printers not your problem that is
[10:38] <caac> oCean_:
[10:38] <caac> Proceed or sudo?
[10:38] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Refueling........
[10:38] <ravibn> tr33m4n :  where is this printer manager
[10:38] <AVkrakkle> livo1: Refueling with what?
[10:38] <oCean_> caac: don't think sudo is needed, if so, you'll get an error message soon enough
[10:39] <PeterNL> Hi, my wifi connection sometimes disconnects, and I can't reconnect unil I reboot. Atheros AR928X PCIe adapter (ath9k) on 9.10 32bit
[10:39] <oCean_> caac: if the imagefile is owned by your user, that is
[10:39] <ravibn> tr33m4n : ????
[10:39] <caac> well it says "Note: Some disks won't appear unless you are root user."
[10:39] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Buttoned your sound card.
[10:39] <tr33m4n> ravibn: currently using the dreaded XP... at a guess I'd say System>Preferences? or maybe Administration
[10:39] <caac> it's root
[10:39] <caac> so I'll do sudo
[10:39] <AVkrakkle> livo1: What does that mean?
[10:39] <PeterNL> ravibn: system>administration>printing
[10:39] <tr33m4n> PeterNL: thanks :p
[10:40] <caac> gonna disconnect, brb
[10:40] <ravibn> tr33m4n : that is only printer configuration
[10:40] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Ha  ha ha, that is, you need to find the driver as soon as possible so that  your sound card to work together, so that your efforts mean.
[10:40] <AVkrakkle> livo1: Oh, I see.
[10:41] <PeterNL> Hi, my wifi connection sometimes disconnects, and I can't reconnect unil I reboot. I do have this problem with any network. Atheros AR928X PCIe adapter (ath9k) on 9.10 32bit
[10:41] <ravibn> tr33m4n : I used win XP to print on the same printer and it does the job so there is no problem with the printer at all
[10:41] <tr33m4n> ravibn: there should be an option to print a test page in the printer preferences (sorry, I'm currently using XP, therefore don't have my ubuntu install to reference)
[10:41] <livo1> AVkrakkle: Chinese and English speech patterns of difference.
[10:41] <erUSUL> PeterNL: enything in dmesg when it disconnects ?
[10:41] <tr33m4n> ravibn: oh ok
[10:41] <AVkrakkle> livo1: Ha ha, I understand.  Your English is very good, though.
[10:41] <tr33m4n> ravibn: what exactly are you trying to print?
[10:42] <PeterNL> Maybe... I'll try to look in older syslogs if I can find something
[10:42] <ravibn> tr33m4n : any document you take and print it just ejects a blank page after moving the printer head
[10:42] <erUSUL> PeterNL: also install this package ( newer drivers ) linux-backports-modules-wireless-karmic-generic
[10:43] <PeterNL> erUSUL: I'll try that
[10:43] <tr33m4n> ravibn: try deleting the printer from the print manager, and add it again
[10:44] <caac1> back
[10:45] <caac1> oCean_: partition table > intel?
[10:45] <ravibn> tr33m4n : I hv given the print the test page let me see what comes out
[10:47] <ravibn> tr33m4n : in the printer Q it displays as processing
[10:49] <caac> oCean_: you there?
[10:51] <ravibn> tr33m4n : it completed the printing job but a blank paper
[10:52] <caac> oCean_: nvm, I chose Intel, I'll do analyze now
[10:54] <oCean_> caac: back. But i have no experience in using testdisk.. I just saw some examples, seems to provide possibility to analyse?
[10:54] <caac> analyzing atm oCean_
[10:54] <caac> seems to work
[10:54] <caac> I'll continue
[10:54] <sawsereqwa>  hi all, i'm about to install some form of Linux on a new laptop, I've never used 64bit Linux and i'm now wondering whether it's time to switch.  Any thoughts on hardware/drivers with 32 vs 64. any other aspects I should consider ?   It's a W510 Thinkpad with an i7 CPU
[10:55] <caac> or wait, should I do "load backup"?
[10:55] <om26er> sawsereqwa, +1 for 64bit
[10:55] <oCean_> caac: really don't know. Would that be a backup of the partitiontable? could be
[10:55] <abhijit> !64 | sawsereqwa
[10:55] <caac> idk ><
[10:55] <caac> llutz: you there?
[10:56] <sawsereqwa> ye i know they're supported, but are the repos the same, are the drivers as good etc..
[10:56] <iceroot> sawsereqwa: 64bit working fine now
[10:56] <sawsereqwa> i'll probably be putting xubuntu
[10:56] <ravibn> sawsereqwa : Hi! none of the Ubuntu disto worked on my laptop
[10:56] <Tomashe> wondering .. there is a way to install gui on my ubuntu server 10.4?
[10:56] <abhijit> sawsereqwa, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/32bit_and_64bit
[10:56] <iceroot> sawsereqwa: repos are the same (adrress) but its using amd64/all instead of i386/all
[10:56] <Tomashe> if yes .. how
[10:56] <PeterNL> erUSUL: http://pastebin.com/cvkKeiF8
[10:56] <iceroot> Tomashe: sure
[10:56] <abhijit> Tomashe, sudo apt-get install ubuntu
[10:56] <sawsereqwa> abhijit, thanks
[10:56] <HarryS> Which way is the "cleanest" way to upgrade Ubuntu from 9.10 to 10.04? It's on a customer's remote box, and I wish to upgrade it via ssh, but I also wish to minimise any potential problems that I would need to drive over and fix. I would also prefer for the user to not notice any changes after the upgrade if possible.
[10:56] <iceroot> Tomashe: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[10:57] <abhijit> Tomashe, sudo apt-get install ubuntu -desktop
[10:57] <oCean_> caac: did it display any partition layout yet?
[10:57] <ravibn> sawsereqwa : on a core i7 cpu u need a kernel with i686 kernel so none of the Ubuntu downloads that are available currently work with core i7
[10:57] <caac> dunno oCean_ ><, I'm a newbie
[10:57] <iceroot> HarryS: the normal upgrade,way but remeber this
[10:57] <iceroot> !controls | HarryS
[10:57] <ravibn> sawsereqwa : this is my first hand experience
[10:57] <caac> I'll pm
[10:57] <Tomashe> -desktop is unknown somehting like that
[10:58] <sawsereqwa> iceroot, i mean does it take longer to package 64bit programs/is it harder. should i expect the same programs available as easily.  will it be harder for me to compile stuff that isn't in the repos ?  say I need libxyz
[10:58] <abhijit> Tomashe, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[10:58] <iceroot> sawsereqwa: its the same
[10:58] <abhijit> Tomashe, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop for kde
[10:58] <HarryS> iceroot: "normal upgrade"? I thought there are many different ways.
[10:59] <iceroot> HarryS: do-release-upgrade
[10:59] <iceroot> !upgrade | HarryS
[10:59] <iceroot> HarryS: of course in a screen-session
[10:59] <HarryS> all right cool, thanks
[11:00] <iceroot> Tomashe: but why need a gui on the server-edition? why not using the normal ubuntu-installation?
[11:01] <iceroot> but that brings an interesting question, is ubuntu-desktop on 10.04 lts supported 5 years or 3 years?
[11:02] <iceroot> server-edition
[11:02] <psycho_oreos> I think all lts are supported for 5 years
[11:02] <psycho_oreos> !lts
[11:02] <psycho_oreos> partially correct there I am
[11:02] <iceroot> psycho_oreos: but server and desktop are using the same repos
[11:03] <psycho_oreos> iceroot, doesn't matter, its up to the policy makers, so servers are supported for 5 years on lts
[11:03] <Slowmove> is there any programs for playing bluray discs on linux yet?
[11:03] <iceroot> psycho_oreos: but server comes without ubuntu-desktop
[11:04] <iceroot> Slowmove: no (not drm protected ones, which are all you can  buy)
[11:04] <psycho_oreos> iceroot, you can always install the desktop later, just don't expect to gain 5 years worth of support using desktop packages with server backends
[11:04] <sawsereqwa> iceroot, thanks, i'll go ahead with 64 then
[11:04] <vak> hi all
[11:05] <iceroot> psycho_oreos: i know,  but i think you get the queestion wrong/cant answer the question
[11:05] <abhijit> sawsereqwa, i m using 64 bit lucid
[11:05] <Slowmove> iceroot - is there any development in that area. Any projects aiming for playing those or is the DRM to hard to fix?
[11:05] <HarryS> Is the Ubuntu team considering switching the button sides in the next release, how it was prior to 10.04? I understand it's an easy config change, but why?
[11:05] <iceroot> Slowmove: there are projects atm there is a project for normmal blu-ray
[11:05] <psycho_oreos> iceroot, then I don't understand what is your question. Yes server does not come with desktop as standard is only because its meant to be for computers to be dedicated and usually headless
[11:06] <thyri0n> i almost got used to the buttons on the left side
[11:06] <thyri0n> ;)
[11:06] <slidinghorn> HarryS, they have plans to keep them in their current spot (on the left) as they want to put "new stuff" in the right corner...not sure what though
[11:06] <HarryS> Q_Q That's crappy in my opinion.
[11:06] <mitiora> ./msg NickServ identify meteor
[11:06] <thyri0n> was quite a nice idea, I like it
[11:06] <MatBoy> are there still issues with flash and so on on 64bits versions ?
[11:06] <iceroot> psycho_oreos: the question is, what packages have 5 years support in lts, only the default packages which comes with the installation or all? if all, why desktop edition has only 3 years if they are using the same repos
[11:06]  * MatBoy installed 32bit on his 64 bit lappy :S
[11:06] <thyri0n> makes it bit more distinctive
[11:06] <abhijit> !identify | mitiora
[11:07] <iceroot> MatBoy: there is no amd64 flash anymore
[11:07] <thyri0n> hi slidinghorn by the way :)
[11:07] <WaltzingAlong> iceroot: packages for lucid
[11:07] <MatBoy> iceroot: that sucks ?
[11:07] <slidinghorn> hey thyri0n
[11:07] <psycho_oreos> iceroot, whatever packages native to server, so whatever that came on server as standard will most likely have 5 years support
[11:07] <iceroot> psycho_oreos: so no ubuntu-desktop
[11:07] <HarryS> I think it looks stupid, users might click the X while chosing the file menu, and it also discourages Windows users to use Ubuntu now (most people don't want huge change)
[11:07] <thyri0n> got back to Ubuntu 10.04 after some serious distro hopping
[11:07] <abhijit> MatBoy, switch to 64 bit
[11:07] <MatBoy> abhijit: yeah I need to, my laptop is slow of you ask me
[11:08] <MatBoy> with 32 bits
[11:08] <psycho_oreos> iceroot, yes because ubuntu-desktop requires xorg and other things and that isn't standard part of server release
[11:08] <thyri0n> HarryS: from a usability point of view it's possibly stupid
[11:08] <abhijit> MatBoy, hmm
[11:08] <thyri0n> mac users will like it though
[11:08] <thyri0n> :D
[11:08] <garry> how to install gnome shell in ubnntu 10.04
[11:08] <iceroot> psycho_oreos: but what about packages which dont have a gui and does not come by default (e.g. vim)
[11:08] <aeon-ltd> MatBoy: what spec is your laptop anyway?
[11:08] <psycho_oreos> iceroot, they most likely fall under desktop but I wouldn't know
[11:08] <aeon-ltd> garry: you mean gnome-terminal, just go to synaptics or use apt
[11:09] <MatBoy> aeon-ltd: lenovo t61 with a T7100 and 2GB
[11:09] <aeon-ltd> MatBoy: clock speed?
[11:09] <HarryS> Who cares about Mac users? The majority of computer users (and those switching to Ubuntu) use(d) Windows.
[11:09] <abhijit> mitiora if that was your password then chage it immidiatly
[11:09] <MatBoy> aeon-ltd: 2x 1,8Ghz
[11:09] <thyri0n> HarryS: absolutely right there
[11:09] <aeon-ltd> HarryS: yeah true, market share for macs are low, i could probably see iOS users take over full OSX users ina bout 5 years
[11:09] <ikonia> MatBoy: that laptop will have no issues with flash
[11:09] <Tomashe> after i installed the gui how do i witch to it? i user putty to remove control the server
[11:10] <ikonia> MatBoy: if you install the flashplugin-nonfree package from the package manager you will get flash
[11:10] <abhijit> Tomashe, it will automatically login to gui
[11:10] <MatBoy> ikonia: no, but it's slow overal... I mean... I think I need 64bits for a more stable system... as I have on my other systems too
[11:10] <ikonia> MatBoy: you think wrong
[11:10] <ikonia> MatBoy: you won't notice any visual difference in general usage between 32/64bit
[11:10] <MatBoy> ikonia: 32bits on 64bits HW is not always stable and fast
[11:10] <ikonia> MatBoy: yes it is
[11:10] <iceroot> was there a develop-channel on freenode for ubuntu?
[11:11] <MatBoy> iceroot: ubuntu+1
[11:11] <Tomashe> it's not
[11:11] <ikonia> MatBoy: the only time it's a problem is if you exceed 4GB of ram, and use the PAE kernel
[11:11] <iceroot> MatBoy: that is beta-channel
[11:11] <ikonia> irk: #ubuntu-devel
[11:11] <MatBoy> oh indeed :)
[11:11] <ikonia> oops
[11:11] <iceroot> ikonia: thx
[11:11] <ikonia> iceroot: #ubuntu-devel
[11:11] <aeon-ltd> MatBoy: full 64bits performance will not actually be achieved until a few years, when there is a coding overhaul.
[11:11] <aeon-ltd> MatBoy: the problem most likely lies in the software your using
[11:11] <aeon-ltd> *not the OS, yes i know its software aswell
[11:12] <MatBoy> aeon-ltd: yeah true, but I run it on my desktop for a long time and it's more stable I get the feeling
[11:12] <ikonia> MatBoy: are you experiencing visual slow performance, or processing slow performance
[11:12] <MatBoy> and why should I go to 64 bits anyway than, if mem is the only issue
[11:12] <ikonia> MatBoy: don't got to 64bit then
[11:12] <vak> Ubuntu was installed as guest OS un VMWare running under Mac OS X. Now I try to play the this Ubuntu-guest image under VMWare that runs also in Ubuntu and... no networking :( I hope I should just change some things in my Ubuntu-guest OS?
[11:12] <MatBoy> ikonia: slow performance, ok my disk is encrypted but even than... a lot of CPU usage for nothing and so on
[11:13] <ikonia> MatBoy: is performance visually slow, or cpu/processing slow
[11:13] <aeon-ltd> MatBoy: my advice, as ubuntu grows stay away from stock configs, e.g. gnome + compiz unless your gpu can handle it
[11:13] <PeterNL> MatBoy: what process is using the cpu?
[11:13] <NeverGone> hello
[11:13] <caac> anyone familiar with TestDisk?
[11:13] <iceroot> !anyone | caac
[11:13] <MatBoy> ikonia: both
[11:13] <caac> dude I asked my question
[11:13] <ikonia> MatBoy: ok, visually slow is a good chance xorg is miss-configured, that's a common issue,
[11:13] <MatBoy> aeon-ltd: even compiz runs smooth on my eeepc :)
[11:14] <ikonia> MatBoy: processing slow, lets look at what's hogging th eresource
[11:14] <iceroot> caac: maybe but we dont scroll the channel to see if someone asked a real question
[11:14] <ikonia> MatBoy: yes, but that may have a supported/correctly configured card
[11:14] <PeterNL> (I don't have problems with gnome+compiz. I like it and it's fast. 2*2,1 GHz + 4Gram + HD4570 @ 9.10 32bit pae)
[11:14] <caac> wtf?
[11:14] <garry> how to install gnome shell
[11:14] <tukadafoonday> Hey people, i am new to linux, I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 and when it was installing the update my computer locked up, anywho, now it hangs on the bootup and says the following (Process:407) Glib-warning**getpwuid_r() failed due to unknown user id (0) any help would be great - thanks in advanced
[11:14] <ikonia> why are you all referencing your system spec to compiz ?
[11:14] <aeon-ltd> MatBoy: i wouldn't run compiz unless it was useful in some way
[11:14] <ikonia> MatBoy: what video card is in the problem machine ?
[11:14] <MatBoy> PeterNL: depends on, I was bittorenting, and what version I use... it defuncts and cannot be killed using the pid, and that is with more programs... I have the idea that encryption is not that fast but people say you should not notice it
[11:15] <Tomashe> hmm looks like i need vnc
[11:15] <Tomashe> anyone could help me with that
[11:15] <Tomashe> ?
[11:15] <MatBoy> aeon-ltd: I use it a lot
[11:15] <garry> gnome shell on ubuntu how can i install it
[11:15] <ikonia> garry: search for the package in the ubuntu repos
[11:15] <aeon-ltd> garry: you mean gnome-terminal, just go to synaptics or use apt
[11:15] <ikonia> garry: then mark it for install
[11:15] <ikonia> gnome shell is a gnome 3 feature
[11:15] <PeterNL> torrents *can* use a lot of cpu. Is that all?
[11:16] <MatBoy> ikonia: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)
[11:16] <ikonia> MatBoy: ok, so that should be a supported but low powered device
[11:16] <aeon-ltd> PeterNL: torrents genreally hover over aroun 2-4% of cpu
[11:16] <MatBoy> PeterNL: but 100% all the time ?
[11:16] <garry> where i search the in ubuntu repos
[11:16] <ikonia> MatBoy: you need to make sure your xorg ocnfig is using the "intel" driver
[11:16] <ikonia> garry: gnome 3 is not released yet
[11:16] <caac> so.. anyone familiar with testdisk?
[11:16] <garry> and other gnome shell can i download
[11:17] <tukadafoonday> I don't mean to be pushy, but can anyone help with my problem?
[11:17] <PeterNL> On my P3 600MHZ I have had over 90% when calculating the hashes of a few gigabytes of torrent. I don't know what that would be on a modern cpu...
[11:17] <Tomashe> guys how do i install a vnc client ?
[11:17] <MatBoy> he damn, is xorg.conf not used anymore... ?
[11:17] <MatBoy> this was changed I thought
[11:17] <ikonia> Tomashe: there are plenty in the ubuntu repos, open the pacakge manager and search
[11:17] <garry> ikonia i need to install any version of gnome shell
[11:17] <aeon-ltd> PeterNL: what client?
[11:17] <PeterNL> MatBoy: depends on what drivers you use
[11:17] <ikonia> garry: it's not available until gnome-3
[11:17] <Benkinooby> Tomashe: get a console and type sudo aptitude install vlc
[11:17] <Tomashe> server sorry
[11:18] <PeterNL> aeon-ltd: transmission (headless)
[11:18] <MatBoy> PeterNL: just a default 10.04 install
[11:18] <ikonia> MatBoy: xorg is used if you hardcode it, if there are parameters (file empty) that are empty, gnome trys to work them out
[11:18] <aeon-ltd> PeterNL: but was it gui?
[11:18] <ikonia> MatBoy: so it's dynamic unless you use xorg.conf to hard code your options
[11:18] <Tomashe> pl dpw
[11:18] <PeterNL> MatBoy: Oh, you have intel grapics, so you don't use xorg.conf anymore
[11:18] <MatBoy> ikonia: I always did it like that :) xorg.conf rules :D
[11:18] <Tomashe> Benkinooby: whats now
[11:19] <ikonia> MatBoy: ok, so hardcode the intel driver and see if that makes a positive differnce
[11:19] <tukadafoonday> Hey people, i am new to linux, I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 and when it was installing the update my computer locked up, anywho, now it hangs on the bootup and says the following (Process:407) Glib-warning**getpwuid_r() failed due to unknown user id (0) any help would be great - thanks in advanced
[11:19] <PeterNL> MatBoy: the closed ATi and nVidia drivers still use xorg.conf...
[11:19] <MatBoy> PeterNL: ah, mhh... I mostly have 2x Nvidia in my PC for my multiple monitors :)
[11:19] <magicianlord> yo
[11:19] <ikonia> MatBoy: some intel cards default to the i810 driver which doesn't work as well as the intel
[11:19] <MatBoy> yeah but ATI is a big issue on Linux, never like(d) it
[11:19] <garry> ikonia so cann't install it
[11:19] <ikonia> garry: no, gnome 3 is not released yet
[11:19] <MatBoy> ah nice, someon is in here as root :D
[11:19] <MatBoy> *someone
[11:19] <PeterNL> MatBoy: it actually works as good as on windows (still crappy, but kinda ok)
[11:20] <MatBoy> PeterNL: yes, but we are in Ubuntu here ;)
[11:20] <Benkinooby> Tomashe: doesn't work for server?
[11:20] <ikonia> MatBoy: it's just an ident, doesn't mean he's using root
[11:20] <PeterNL> rule 1: never update fglrx unless you have to
[11:20] <MatBoy> ikonia: moslty it is
[11:20] <MatBoy> *mostly
[11:20] <hspaans> MatBoy: please stop spreading fud
[11:20] <Tomashe> after i installed it
[11:20] <Tomashe> whats now
[11:20] <xibalba> anyone here good w/postfix ?
[11:20] <Tomashe> how do i connect to it
[11:20] <tukadafoonday> I guess no-one knows how to help me?
[11:20] <xibalba> i'[m trying to do a simple smtp forward server
[11:20] <Benkinooby> Tomashe: argh! sorry
[11:20] <quiescens> technically, its not even an ident response
[11:20] <Benkinooby> i read vlc and not vnc
[11:20] <Benkinooby> sorry
[11:20] <Misterio> MatBoy: I would use NVidia, if I were you
[11:20] <quiescens> because it has the ~
[11:20] <MatBoy> hspaans: people login from mailservers as root to IRC to get help... so... hehe I see it a lot :)
[11:20] <xibalba> i have a transport map with  the following
[11:20] <garry> kk thanks ikonia
[11:21] <Tomashe> :/
[11:21] <xibalba> lethalnetworks.com      smtp:reza.homeunix.net:2500
[11:21] <Benkinooby> vlc is for playing video -.- ...
[11:21] <xibalba> but my maillog file keeps saying this
[11:21] <hspaans> MatBoy: I mean about ATI
[11:21] <Tomashe> hehe
[11:21] <xibalba> Jul 25 03:20:02 lethalnetworks postfix/smtp[48660]: AEFC14501B<EMAIL_ADDRESS>relay=none, delay=18, delays=17/0/1.2/0, dsn=5.4.4, status=bounced (Host or domain name not found. Name service error for name=lethalnetworks.om type=A: Host not found)
[11:21] <MatBoy> Misterio: yes I have them alsways in my PC... but this... it's a laptop :)
[11:21] <Tomashe> ok
[11:21] <xibalba> can you guys tell me if reza.homeunix.net resolves
[11:21] <xibalba> for you ?
[11:21] <Tomashe> how do i install vnc
[11:21] <garry> can u tell me how to install themes in ubuntu 10.04
[11:21] <Benkinooby> ah, ok...for vnc there are many...
[11:21] <xibalba> anybody?
[11:21] <FloodBot1> xibalba: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:21] <ikonia> !themes | garry
[11:21] <garry> ikonia: can u tell me how to install themes in ubuntu 10.04
[11:21] <vistakiller> two months official release of Lucid now and plymouth is still broken
[11:21] <MatBoy> hspaans: it sucks, sorry, no other experience by myself and with people around me... on windows it seems ok
[11:21] <ikonia> Tomashe: open the package manager, search for vnc then hit "install" on the packages you want
[11:21] <Tomashe> i'm using putty
[11:22] <Tomashe> i have no desktop
[11:22] <vistakiller> i see today this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAIznHhNKPk
[11:22] <aeon-ltd> garry: just download them put them in .themes or /usr/share/themes
[11:22] <Misterio> xibalba: If you can resolve evertone can; use in terminal "host reza.homeunix.net"
[11:22] <Tomashe> this is why i need to install vnc
[11:22] <quiescens> xibalba: its saying there's an error trying to resolve lethnetworks.om
[11:22] <MatBoy> Tomashe: you have no dekstop and use putty ?
[11:22] <Tomashe> so i could seee the desktop
[11:22] <MatBoy> *desktop
[11:22] <llutz> xibalba<EMAIL_ADDRESS><- typo in address? om/com
[11:22] <quiescens> xibalba: which makes sense because i don't think there is a .om
[11:22] <vistakiller> the problem is that i have the same netbook and plymouth is completly broken there
[11:22] <abhijit> xibalba, connection error
[11:22] <Tomashe> i have desktop i just cannt see it putty is just see terminal no?
[11:22] <PeterNL> xibalba: reza.homeunix.net (<IP_ADDRESS>)
[11:22] <aeon-ltd> PeterNL: are you running transmission is a gui environment?
[11:22] <hspaans> MatBoy: the FOSS-driver just do their work and for a long long time
[11:22] <vistakiller> and to my dekstop machine too
[11:22] <PeterNL> PeterNL: I run transmission on my server. I use the web interface
[11:23] <aeon-ltd> PeterNL: but is it running in X on the server?
[11:23] <garry> ikonia :what is eyecandy
[11:23] <PeterNL> aeon-ltd: I run transmission on my server. I use the web interface
[11:23] <vistakiller> why you dont fix two months now the plymouht problems? We have report these problems two months before the official release but nothing happens :(
[11:23] <ikonia> garry: read the link
[11:23] <ikonia> vistakiller: why are you ranting in here
[11:23] <hspaans> MatBoy: the closed source crap from both ati and nvidia are both below any standard
[11:23] <k00giez> wazzzzzzuuuuupppppppppppppppppppppp
[11:23] <Benkinooby> maybe you give x11vnc a try
[11:23] <PeterNL> aeon-ltd: I don't dare to run X on that machine :O
[11:23] <ikonia> vistakiller: this is not the channel where developers listen
[11:23] <ikonia> k00giez: please don't
[11:23] <ikonia> vistakiller: contribute to the bug report
[11:23] <k00giez> oknia
[11:23] <tukadafoonday> I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 and when it was installing the update my computer locked up, anywho, now it hangs on the bootup and says the following (Process:407) Glib-warning**getpwuid_r() failed due to unknown user id (0) any help would be great - thanks in advanced
[11:23] <magicianlord> are deb files compressed?
[11:24] <aeon-ltd> PeterNL: maybe you could try rtorrent? and ssh instead of the web interface, it might be lighter
[11:24] <vistakiller> there is 6 bug report already for plymouth but nothing happens
[11:24] <Benkinooby> tomashe: maybe you give x11vnc a try
[11:24] <ikonia> vistakiller: ok - so ranting in here won't help, post a construvtive post to the bug
[11:24] <k00giez> was up mao
[11:24] <abhijit> vistakiller, #ubuntu-devel
[11:24] <vistakiller> i must write 6 posts :P or is more
[11:24] <ikonia> abhijit: no
[11:24] <ikonia> abhijit: that is not a support channel
[11:24] <abhijit> ikonia, no? ok
[11:24] <Benkinooby> Tomashe: do you have a gui on your server?
[11:24] <ikonia> that is for development discussion
[11:24] <magicianlord> sometimes bugs arent fixed for months, until next release
[11:24] <abhijit> ikonia, I see
[11:24] <PeterNL> Nope, I need a good looking web interface, and transmission actually works great. The time it actually downloaded faster that it could calculate the hashes was an exeption...
[11:25] <vistakiller> plymouth is the first think that will see a new user
[11:25] <PeterNL> aeon-ltd: ^
[11:25] <vistakiller> how they left this bug to pass to official release?
[11:25] <ikonia> vistakiller: stop now
[11:25] <vistakiller> ok banned me
[11:25] <ikonia> vistakiller: I've told you ranting in here will get you nothing, contribute to the bug report
[11:25] <vistakiller> when i always say something that you dont like you ban
[11:25] <vistakiller> and i am old ubuntu user
[11:25] <xibalba> wow this is too much ext
[11:26] <aeon-ltd> PeterNL: yeah, is there anything else running on the server, if you can go to it now use 'top'/'htop' and see what else may be consuming all the processors power
[11:26] <Benkinooby> how can i fix that annoying "unable to mount [drive name] Not Authorized" ? any hints where to start?
[11:26] <llutz> vistakiller: you're offtopic here, take your rant somewhere
[11:26] <vistakiller> this is the famous ubuntu community?
[11:26] <ikonia> vistakiller: I don't care on your age, make a contribution to the bug report,
