[15:58] <Azerus> guys in the ubuntu forum the dwa-110 exists and works fine but i dnt know how to configure it please advise
[15:58] <duffydack> Agionz, umm.. there is no unetbootin for mac.
[15:58] <duffydack> Agionz, do you have another windows/linux system?
[15:58] <SPM_> fabi_an_: I don't know if it printing output... But if it is working, it should create devices under /dev/mapper/
[15:58] <Agionz> duffydack, did, until I remove it just recently.
[15:58] <zgx> 支持中文吗？
[15:58] <cousteau> !zh
[15:59] <duffydack> Agionz, well just grab the newer iso and burn it..  md5 check it before you burn it.
[15:59] <X_Tech__> how can I work in terminals....some links or tips
[16:00] <Azerus> duffydack, please advise what should i do with my d-link dwa 110 its supported and working in the ubuntu forums
[16:00] <sacarlson> jellow: I don't see any other ports active but ircu active so not sure how it is suposed to work.
[16:00] <sid123> whenever i start xampp it says another web server daemon is running,and when i open localhost in my web browser it shows nothing.How to stop the web server daemon  and start apache and restart it when i am done?
[16:00] <Azerus> btw its ralink chipset
[16:01] <gasull> sacarlson: sorry, I had to go for a few minutes.  I have my hard drive encrypted, that secures it from being stolen.  But I'm using DropBox for online backups, so when I travel I have my docs there if I need them and there's a problem (it already happened to me). I want to have my docs encrypted in Dropbox with EncFS.
[16:01] <Viglite> Agionz: For Mac:> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[16:01] <madh2orat> X_Tech__: type your command followed by  --help to see the help for the individual command, also, pressing tab will autocomplete files/folders so you don't have t type the whole name.
[16:01] <Divecks> Hey, is someone able to help me with setting up automounting of an SSHFS folder at boot/login? Thanks =)
[16:01] <Agionz> viglite, duffydack, thanks to you both, I'll try that out.
[16:02] <duffydack> Viglite, it says on there "There is an unresolved issue in that you cannot create a bootable USB stick from within Mac OSX. You must create the stick in Linux or Windows."  is that still a problem
[16:02] <sacarlson> gasull: well it's easy to setup with just your personal home dir encrypted.  just create a new account that's encrypted.  on 10.04 it's built in
[16:03] <avis> if i run windows 7 under is it virtualbox would i be able to use that magicjack applicance within lucid ?
[16:03] <Viglite> duffydack: I think is resolved in 10, but the info and other data needed is linked on that official page.
[16:03] <sacarlson> gasull: if you want to change the encryption method I guess you can do that.  but I would setup a secound account to encrypt and keep a usable unencrypted account for service and repair.
[16:03] <duffydack> Viglite, is there a "dd" for mac?
[16:04] <duffydack> could just use that, it works for ubuntu isos 9.10 and later as i recall.
[16:04] <Ziaeon> I'm tring to do MAC address filtering on my machine but it wasnt working, so I ran tcpdump to see if I see MAC's being passed in the traffic and I don't.
[16:04] <Ziaeon> Any insight into this?
[16:05] <gasull> sacarlson: how is the home dir encrypted? with encfs?
[16:05] <gasull> sacarlson: are we talking about the same thing?
[16:05] <sacarlson> gasull: yes I think so
[16:05] <Viglite> duffydack: Yes:> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromImgFiles
[16:06] <sun> ?
[16:07] <X_Tech__> how to do that
[16:07] <X_Tech__> the tab thing
[16:07] <slayton> Viglite, yes I have, but it does not support video capture, at least according to the manual
[16:07] <acovrig> how do I fix E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)?
[16:07] <sacarlson> gasull: take a look https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedHome  I was about to try this in a test account to find it was just one box to set at user create to have it all done for you.
[16:08] <Viglite> slayton: Ok, VLC?
[16:08] <acovrig> I'v tried sudo apt-get -f install with no success
[16:08] <zzzed__> !tab | X_tech
[16:08] <sacarlson> gasull: it defaults to use AES256 encryption
[16:10] <Viglite> slayton: The docs say gxine and stuff, https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html
[16:11] <cousteau> should I install flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound? would that help reduce the huge audio latency in Flash? it's sometimes around 1 second or so
[16:11] <Viglite> slayton: The page before that and that one also mention VLC, still looking,,,
[16:12] <ShinyDarkness> Hi.
[16:12] <Viglite> cousteau: Or gstreamer 'ugly'
[16:13] <tf2ftw> I've set up a server running a LAMP, SVN, and proftpd. I have 2 users that i want to be able to access the SVN and the FTP. I need them both to have read write in the www folder. Do I add the users to the www-data group, or do i make a new goup that ows the www folder and add www-data to it?
[16:13] <cousteau> Viglite: was that for slayton?
[16:13] <gary_inNYC> i installed a newer version of empathy from ppa and now it's no longer in the unified message indicator applet.  what can i do to put it back?
[16:14] <Viglite> cousteau: No, you asked about Flash Plugin, you can do that Adobe 10 or use the gstreamer from the 'ugly'  or 'bad' set, see wich one works best with your hardware.
[16:14] <slayton> Viglite, thanks for the heads up on VLC I thought it was just a player
[16:15] <Falcz> Hey, it would be awesome if someone could check this out: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9767934#post9767934. I am really at a dead end. thanks :)
[16:15] <ShinyDarkness> Hello, is there any official/suggested/prefered tool to develop programs for Ubuntu?
[16:15] <Viglite> slayton: You are quite welcome, I thought so also for a long time.
[16:15] <FalsAlarm> how often should a production server do a apt upgrade
[16:15] <FalsAlarm> if ever?
[16:16] <jellow_> sacarlson, i managed to make it work from my server to me , want to try again ?
[16:16] <gasull> sacarlson: I'm reading about it, but I still don't get if this will encrypt /home/myuser or /home/myuser/Private
[16:16] <cousteau> Viglite: ok, but I don't see what has flash to do with codecs
[16:17] <guntbert> !here | Falcz
[16:17] <gasull> ShinyDarkness: An IDE, you mean?
[16:17] <FalsAlarm> ubottu,me?
[16:18] <cousteau> Viglite: gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly already installed
[16:18] <gasull> gary_inNYC: My 2 cents: empathy it's a pain.  I prefer Pidgin for IRC + IM, and Ekiga for SIP.
[16:18] <ShinyDarkness> Perhaps an IDE, perhaps just an editor and a compiler.
[16:18] <WinstonSmith> FalsAlarm, is the server online?
[16:18] <gasull> s/it's/is/
[16:18] <ShinyDarkness> Perhaps an IDE, perhaps just an editor and a compiler.
[16:19] <gasull> ShinyDarkness: If you are relatively new to programming, try Eclipse.  What language do you program on?  Any preference?
[16:19] <FalsAlarm> WinstonSmith, yes it's online and it's running as my web server
[16:19] <FalsAlarm> only port 88 and my ssh port are open currently and I'm wondering if I should ever apt upgrade on it, ever?
[16:19] <sacarlson> gasull: it can do eather but I setup so that is encrypted /home/myuser dir
[16:20] <guntbert> FalsAlarm: you are probably asking about "sudo apt-get update   and    sudo apt-get upgrade" or (IMO better) "sudo aptitude update    and   sudo aptitude safe-upgrade" , I'd say run the "update" part once a week and look what it is offering, when you feel comfortable do the "upgrade/safe-upgrade"
[16:20] <WinstonSmith> FalsAlarm, i have a webserver online too where i do updates like once a month. its still running 8.04
[16:20] <WinstonSmith> FalsAlarm, until now nothing ever broke except VBOX but thats another story
[16:21] <EXHDS> :)
[16:21] <gasull> sacarlson: I see
[16:21] <FalsAlarm> ya mine is Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

[16:22] <WinstonSmith> FalsAlarm, or do like guntbert says once a week but i wouldnt ever do a dist-upgrade
[16:22] <FalsAlarm> is that 10.04 that i'm using good to run as web server or should I use another version maybe?
[16:22] <Dug_> does anyone know why all of a sudden my laptop using ubuntu has No sound at all :s i click on sound preferences go to hardware tab and it shows no hardware :s i had sound just yesterday now i cant get any at all :S
[16:23] <Dug_> i cant understand why my sound would suddenly disapear and why it would stop picking up my sound card
[16:23] <WinstonSmith> FalsAlarm, no 10.04 is good since its a LTS
[16:24] <Dug_> anyone ?
[16:24] <guntbert> FalsAlarm: dis-upgrade is entirely different, what I told you gets you only (mostly security) updates, what updates you get you can set in your /etc/apt/sources.list
[16:24] <Paf1> Hello all, could anyone help with with a sound issue?
[16:25] <sacarlson> jellow: what did you do to make it work?  did you use pidgin on your other box?

[16:27] <Dug__> Can somebody give me some help with a sound problem i have please ?
[16:27] <sacarlson> jellow: ok but did it go from irssi to pidgin?
[16:27] <gary_inNYC> is there a way to add my install of empathy back into the unified message indicator applet where it belongs?  my empathy tray icon has gone rogue ever since i updated it from a ppa.
[16:27] <FalsAlarm> I got another question regarding my web root directory. currently, by default it's owned by root and no other users can create/edit files there(i also do not have any other users)
[16:27] <samkraju> i tired with rhythmbox but the files are not updated
[16:28] <Dug__> anyone please ?
[16:28] <sacarlson> jellow: ok it worked that time
[16:28] <FalsAlarm> should I leave it that way or should I chown it to the www-data user?
[16:28] <FalsAlarm> or maybe ubuntu user
[16:28] <WinstonSmith> samkraju, try easytag its in the repos
[16:28] <sacarlson> jellow: so the prolblem was on your side?
[16:28] <Falcz> Hey, ubuntu refuses to boot and giving an error. Any help would be much appreciated.
[16:28] <duffydack> FalsAlarm, that happened to me as well.   you could remove it, remove the ppa and install again

[16:29] <WinstonSmith> FalsAlarm, www-data

[16:29] <Dangerface> I just installed my Linux BackTrack4
[16:29] <duffydack> gary_inNYC,  that happened to me as well.   you could remove it, remove the ppa and install again
[16:29] <sacarlson> jellow: so you changed your router settings?
[16:29] <Dug__> any help for a Ubuntu noob please ? :(
[16:29] <duffydack> !backtrack | Dangerface
[16:30] <x-_---_-x> WinstonSmith, vlc has to close the stream
[16:30] <jellow> sacarlson: no i connected to a server (vps) and sent it from there
[16:30] <gary_inNYC> duffydack: will removing the ppa uninstall empathy as well?
[16:30] <sacarlson> jellow: I have nat forwarded to this box so do I need that to make this work?
[16:30] <samkraju> thanks, i will try easytags
[16:30] <duffydack> gary_inNYC, no.

[16:31] <sacarlson> jellow: ok well I was tring this earlier today with someone and it didn't work then.
[16:31] <Dug__> ive left posts on forumns and stuff....no one ever wants to help linux noobs....
[16:31] <Dug__> im finding it impossible
[16:32] <WinstonSmith> Dug__: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question u want help with
[16:32] <duffydack> Dug__,  what problem are you having.  If no one responds, its possible no one knows.
[16:32] <WinstonSmith> duffydack, he didnt state his question yet :|
[16:32] <sacarlson> jellow: seems you should always be able to send without nat so I'm not sure what you did to make it work.  you must have went around some firewall they have there.
[16:32] <Dug__> i know, but some sort of feedback would be nice to know i wasnt ignored :(
[16:33] <Dangerface> HOW DO I REGULATE THE SOUND VOLUME ?
[16:33] <shuman> Dangerface: try alsamixer

[16:35] <carop> Hello. I have two linux machines in a network, one running Ubuntu. How can I open a remote Gnome session on the ubuntu machine (so I am sitting in front of the other machine) ?
[16:35] <arvind_khadri> WinstonSmith, yes
[16:35] <guntbert> kiffer: I don't know what paper clip is, but you should ask in #openoffice.org
[16:36] <Dug__> so where would i go from there ?
[16:36] <shuman> Dangerface: yes it is possible ;) just give google a try and look for answers yourself :)
[16:36] <WinstonSmith> arvind_khadri, go to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=387411
[16:36] <duffydack> Dug__,  sudo lshw -C sound    and pastebin it

[16:39] <FalsAlarm> how do I check if mysql server is running on my ubuntu?
[16:39] <x-x---x->  Anyone know how to take a video stream (udp,rtp,rtsp, or even http) and save it to disc in linux (ubuntu 10.04) in specified file chunks (size or length) without interupting the video stream (vlc doesn't work)
[16:39] <sacarlson> jellow: and seeing that security is not needed you could quickly setup a nonencrypted vpn  link
[16:39] <Dug__> any ideas on whats wrong ? :(
[16:40] <duffydack> Dug__,  hmm, try sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel
[16:40] <Dug__> ok
[16:40] <WinstonSmith> sudo service mysqld status or so
[16:41] <gasull> TerrenceKJ: you should be more explicit and post the error somewhere, like dpaste.com
[16:41] <FalsAlarm> how to see the full output of top linux command, it's too much for screen?
[16:41] <duffydack> Dug__, then have a look in your sound applet
[16:41] <Dug__> i get this duffy http://pastebin.com/LgvA3gM2 :s
[16:41] <Dug__> a fatal error
[16:41] <strashniq> duffydack can you help me a little ?
[16:41] <WinstonSmith> FalsAlarm,  sudo service mysql status
[16:42] <Dug__> and sound preferences still show no hardware :(
[16:44] <Dug__> dunno if this will have anything to do with it but last i used it with sound working i installed updates using the update manager and then i uninstalled Virtualbox to install a different version of virtualbox
[16:44] <FalsAlarm> mysql: unrecognized service
[16:44] <livingdaylight> guys, I got 4 .m4 files. Anyone know how I can string them together so that I have 1 movie rather than 4 parts?

[16:45] <FalsAlarm> ya ok
[16:45] <FalsAlarm> woops
[16:45] <Dug__> ok
[16:45] <WinstonSmith> FalsAlarm, ?
[16:46] <WinstonSmith> FalsAlarm,  sudo /etc/init.d/mysql status maybe?
[16:46] <blink> hi. i have too much free swap memory. my system uses high amounts of ram. how can i increase my rams and decrease my swap? i did 'free -m' in the terminal firstly.
[16:46] <Dug__> duffydack, here you go http://pastebin.com/bfHFU3sE
[16:46] <jbwiv_> is anyone aware of a tool that lets you watch the network connections (and their content) opened by a particular process? I know lsof will list the connections, but i need something that will list and also allow inspect of the packets
[16:46] <FalsAlarm> how can i see the full output of top command, then i can just browse it
[16:46] <WinstonSmith> blink, u want to use all ur memory and no swap...swap just slows things down
[16:47] <jellow> jbwiv_: wireshark listening on localhost ?
[16:47] <blink> WinstonSmith: yeah i got 0.98GB ram and 2.86 swap. it would be extremely good if i switched both amount.
[16:47] <jbwiv_> jellow, but can wireshark trace all connections initiated by a particular process id?
[16:48] <jellow> jbwiv_: Don't think so :P
[16:48] <WinstonSmith> blink, u cant switch that since ur amount of ram is physical.... what exactly are u trying to accomplish?
[16:49] <duffydack> Dug__,   run alsamixer     from terminal
[16:49] <Dug__> ok
[16:49] <WinstonSmith> blink, and linux will try to use all ram there is normally also for the disk cache
[16:49] <seekwill> blink: Paste the output of free -m
[16:49] <sacarlson> jbwiv_: I guess you would need to look at it with two peaces of software,  wireshark for the content,  another to find the process to find the port it used that you will watch from wireshark.
[16:49] <blink> WinstonSmith: i am assuming that i can't increase my rams without installing a new chip, so what am thinking of is to take certain amount of my swap and put use it for ram
[16:50] <Dug__> im guessing i type in "alsamixer" if so im getting "cannot open mixer: No such file or directory" whcih is weird becuase it was working the other day :s
[16:50] <Pici> blink: Thats what swap is though....
[16:50] <WinstonSmith> blink, no the system handles that for u....
[16:50] <seekwill> lol

[16:50] <Diverdude> what command can i write to see the version of an installed program
[16:50] <Dug__> even going Applications, Sound&Video and trying to open the gui version of alsamixer wont work :s
[16:51] <seekwill> blink: Basically, the 401 number is your "magic" number. That's how much RAM you are really using
[16:51] <guntbert> blink: swap space is on the HD
[16:51] <delinquentme> So im trying to join a channel in IRC ... when i connect up i get this error:      #web :Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services .... how do i "identify" with services???
[16:51] <Pici> !register | delinquentme
[16:51] <ChogyDan> Diverdude: apt-cache policy <package>
[16:51] <Dug__> you think i need to reinstall gnome alsamixer ? :s
[16:51] <sacarlson> jbwiv_: and the other software needed to find the process ID to port would be sudo netstat -pant
[16:51] <blink> seekwill: guntbert: WinstonSmith: Pici: so.. is there a way to accomplish what i really want?
[16:52] <WinstonSmith> Diverdude, try programname --help?
[16:52] <guntbert> blink: buy more RAM
[16:52] <seekwill> blink: You don't know what you really want :) Your system is fine.
[16:52] <delinquentme> Pici ... how do i do that for a specific channel?? for example #web
[16:52] <duffydack> Dug__, I`m stumped.  try sudo /sbin/alsa force-reload
[16:52] <Pici> blink: I think you may be confused as to what swap actually is.  Take a gander at 11:44:16 <hiku> LzrdKing: atleast my wife loved it anyway
[16:52] <Dug__> ok
[16:52] <blink> seekwill: heard if you had more ram your system will run faster.
[16:52] <Diverdude> none of those worked
[16:52] <Pici> blink: argh, wrong paste... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq
[16:53] <Diverdude> ChogyDan, i didnt install it using packet manager
[16:53] <seekwill> blink: It will. So you have to buy more RAM, not swap
[16:53] <duffydack> Dug__, and try alsamixer again.  if not, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa-base
[16:53] <Dug__> i just get a ton of warnings :s
[16:53] <Pici> delinquentme: You don't.  you register/identify for the whole irc network.
[16:53] <blink> seekwill: i am saying that i want to reduce swap if possible
[16:53] <seekwill> blink: It'll run faster depending if you need it. So far, you don't seem to be pushing your system very hard (you're not using swap)
[16:53] <WinstonSmith> Diverdude, try programname --help?
[16:53] <seekwill> blink: You're not really using it though...
[16:53] <Dug__> and alsamixer still wont open lol, ill try the dpkg thing then
[16:53] <Falcz> Hey, ubuntu refuses to boot and is giving an error. Any help would be much appreciated :)
[16:53] <gary_inNYC> blink: it won't run "faster" rather more efficiently by enabling you to run more applications and programs simultaneously without relying on slow swap
[16:54] <blink> seekwill: assuming i need more ram, i figured that i take some from swap and put it in ram
[16:54] <delinquentme> Pici, im already registered :D
[16:54] <WinstonSmith> !ask
[16:54] <seekwill> blink: no :D
[16:54] <Pici> delinquentme: You aren't identified.
[16:54] <Dug__> duffydack, sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa-base didnt do anything :s well atleast in terminal it didnt look like it did i tried to open alsmixer again though after still no luck :(
[16:54] <blink> seekwill: that's all i wanted to know :)
[16:54] <WinstonSmith> !ask | Falcz
[16:55] <duffydack> Dug__, its hard to know what the update broke.......   try sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils reset      and reboot
[16:55] <Dug__> ok
[16:55] <blink> how to check the ram speed on my system?
[16:55] <Diverdude> i need to install a package which for some stupid reason does not exist in a repository: http://www.cendio.com/downloads/clients/    Can anybody give me some help on this?
[16:55] <seekwill> blink: :)
[16:55] <matthew> hi
[16:55] <Dug__> i will try that and reboot and log in and let you know hwo it went, if we cant get it working though, thanks for your time :)
[16:55] <blink> i am running a desktop and planing on buying a good laptop with specific specs.
[16:55] <Falcz> WinstonSmith: Isn't that what I did?
[16:56] <famicube64> yar har
[16:56] <WinstonSmith> Falcz, no u should specify ur question a bit :) u are being really vague
[16:56] <Dug__> hmm duffydack, i get "sudo: /etc/init.d/alsa-utils: command not found" when i try your sudo command xD
[16:56] <Scunizi> something just changed in my system.... if I open a terminal and type any command the cursor drops to the next line and sits there without initiating the command.  Audio in the main system has suddenly stopped playing *but* audio in my VM on this machine works.. What's going on?
[16:58] <Dug__> dont suppose there is anyway to undo the update ? xD
[16:58] <Dangerface> Where can I learn to like linux
[16:58] <Falcz> WinstonSmith: Ok sure :). Since I started using my nvidia 6600, ubuntu no longer boots and gives this error http://i.imagehost.org/0741/Error.png
[16:58] <Dug__> buy cedega so you can play your windows games :P
[16:58] <b0ot>  Anyone know how to take a video stream (udp,rtp,rtsp, or even http) and save it to disc in linux (ubuntu 10.04) in specified file chunks (size or length) without interupting the video stream (vlc doesn't work)
[16:59] <Diverdude> i need to install a package which for some stupid reason does not exist in a repository: http://www.cendio.com/downloads/clients/    Can anybody give me some help on this?
[17:00] <WinstonSmith> Falcz, boot with a livecd and do a fsck -f /dev/sda5
[17:00] <X_Tech__> Where can I learn to like linux ?
[17:00] <delinquentme> Pici, am i identified now?
[17:00] <intel_> Where can I learn to like linux ?
[17:00] <Dug__> duffydack i think im gonna try and reinstall my sound stuff like alsamixer etc and reboot see if that helps but then i hve to log got some stuff to do
[17:00] <Dug__> but thanks for your time duffydack :)
[17:00] <duffydack> Dug__,  if you know what was updated, then you can run synaptic and force version
[17:00] <famicube64> @intel_ http://www.linsux.org/
[17:00] <Dug__> hmm
[17:01] <Pici> delinquentme: No, please ask in #freenode for further help
[17:01] <Dug__> i didnt look t what was in the update list i just pressed update :(
[17:01] <ubun00b> 1st use live USB Lucid
[17:01] <jellow> Diverdude: Just downoad the debian package and run with dpkg -i file
[17:01] <IdleOne> Diverdude: that page has a download link for .deb
[17:01] <Falcz> WinstonSmith: Unfortunatly the livecd doesn't work either :/
[17:01] <Dug__> dont suppose there is an update log anywhere that shows what was updated on last update ?
[17:01] <WinstonSmith> Falcz, how do u mean? does not boot?
[17:02] <ubun00b> How do I run a .run script in terminal?
[17:02] <duffydack> Dug__,   try /var/log/apt
[17:02] <Dug__> ok thanks
[17:02] <WinstonSmith> ubun00b, ./scriptname.run
[17:02] <ubun00b> Running latest Lucid LTS live from USB
[17:02] <duffydack> or look in your /var/cache/apt/archives/ folder for the saved debs..
[17:02] <ubun00b> Thancks
[17:02] <jellow> ubun00b: chmod +x script_name and then ./script_name
[17:03] <Dug__> found a history log here :)
[17:03] <Falcz> WinstonSmith: I see the grub, run ubuntu and then the screen goes blank and that error comes up. Sorry, I should of specified the OS doesn't boot.
[17:03] <Scunizi> why would "sudo apt-get update" on cli hang and the package manager not hang?
[17:03] <Arcand> Kikou \o
[17:03] <Arcand> I ate a cake
[17:04] <duffydack> Dug__,   duh..... synaptic, File - History
[17:04] <Dug__> do you wanna see the section for my update that may have broken it ?
[17:04] <duffydack> Dug__,   ok then
[17:04] <Dug__> ill pastebin it
[17:04] <tishammer> hi
[17:05] <Arcand> Sucez moi le zizi
[17:05] <Dug__> duffydack, here you go http://pastebin.com/VfbKnSuc
[17:06] <tishammer> it's pretty weird. I have a dir /a/b which is owned by user b. in fstab i have options users,owner but when i mount it it's owned by root. any ideas?
[17:06] <Dug__> i mean, i look at that list of updates... i dont know what could or would even effect my sound :/
[17:06] <duffydack> Dug__,  might be the kernel update
[17:06] <Dug__> hmm
[17:06] <Dug__> which one in that list is the kernal update ?
[17:06] <Dangerface> In console.
[17:06] <Dangerface>  jed ./test
[17:06] <Dangerface>  copy all script
[17:06] <Dangerface>  save script
[17:06] <Dangerface>  chmod u+x ./test
[17:06] <Dangerface>  ./test
[17:06] <FloodBot3> Dangerface: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:07] <Dug__> is it the ghostscript ?
[17:07] <duffydack> Dug__, if you know what driver it uses you can modprobe it...
[17:07] <WinstonSmith> Falcz, just to be clear it gives u the same error trying to boot from cd?
[17:07] <intel_> how can I learn About Ubuntu from ABC....
[17:07] <Dangerface> why
[17:07] <vigge_sWe> hi
[17:07] <Dug__> hmm the driver for my sound card ?
[17:07] <WinstonSmith> hi
[17:07] <vigge_sWe> why is the 64-bit ubuntu not recommended for daily use?
[17:07] <Dangerface> why can't I do command: jed ./test ?
[17:07] <Dug__> and whats modprobe ? :s
[17:07] <duffydack> Dug__,  the module it loads yes
[17:07] <Dug__> hmm im not sure on that :s
[17:07] <Falcz> WinstonSmith: Its a busybox error when I try to boot using the live cd with my nvidia card in
[17:08] <jellow> vigge_sWe: some files have bad support for 64-bit , flash for example
[17:08] <duffydack> Dug__, do you have more than 1 kernel to boot from at boot ?
[17:08] <vigge_sWe> but I have 64-bit on my laptop and flash worsk as it should
[17:08] <intel_> do we have restore point in ubuntu
[17:08] <Dug__> erm ... :s
[17:08] <Dug__> i dunno
[17:09] <vigge_sWe> doesn't it depend on if the browser is 64-bit or not?
[17:09] <WinstonSmith> Falcz, 64 bit or 32?
[17:09] <gary_inNYC> intel_: you can use "Back in Time" and back up your home and etc directories
[17:09] <Dug__> how would i know if i have more than 1 kernel to boot from ?
[17:09] <Falcz> WinstonSmith: 32bit 10.04
[17:09] <intel_> how to do that
[17:09] <duffydack> Dug__,  do you get a grub menu ?
[17:09] <Diverdude> is there something about having to install a shared clipboard application in ubuntu before copy/paste works properly?
[17:09] <Dug__> nope
[17:09] <arvind_khadri> WinstonSmith, was able to get it :) thanks, now I want to get back to password prompt, but its not happening, lol :)
[17:09] <Dug__> im 100% Ubuntu on here nothing else
[17:10] <gary_inNYC> intel_: install back in time from software center or synaptic
[17:10] <duffydack> Dug__,  reboot and press shift just as its gonna boot.. it`ll give you a menu.. there might be an older kernel you can boot to, to see if it is the kernel update.
[17:10] <iRy> does somebody has experience with alsa?? audio device changes after every song
[17:10] <wele> Hi
[17:10] <ubun00b> Following your example...
[17:10] <ubun00b>  chmod +x NV.run
[17:10] <ubun00b> ./nv.run
[17:10] <ubun00b> didn't work, got "no such file" for NVidia Linux drivers package just downloaded and listed under dir command
[17:10] <FloodBot3> ubun00b: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:10] <wele> where is the nick list
[17:10] <Dug__> ok so shift just as its booting and look for a kernel menu and select an older one
[17:11] <iRy> wele to your right.
[17:11] <Pici> ubun00b: filenames are case-sensitive on linux.
[17:11] <Dug__> if i do this though, will it always use the kernel i select in this menu ?
[17:11] <duffydack> Dug__,   no
[17:11] <Dug__> so i woul dhave to remove the newer one if sound works with the old one
[17:11] <wele> i dont have it
[17:11] <Dangerface> I found out the jed command meself, I just had to install it
[17:11] <wele> left side there is channel name
[17:11] <duffydack> Dug__, not really, just see what happens
[17:11] <ubun00b> yes, that's the exact case sensitive name I shortened it to
[17:11] <Dug__> ok, ill be back in and let you know how it goes :) thanks
[17:11] <Dug__> ill brb
[17:12] <Diverdude> i can only copy text from thinlinc to ubuntu, not the other way. What is the cause of that?
[17:12] <WinstonSmith> Falcz, Have you tried using the safe graphics mode when booting from the CD
[17:12] <lorenzo> #ubuntu-it
[17:12] <Falcz> WinstonSmith: Yep
[17:13] <wele> how i can change the veiw in here
[17:13] <iRy> have problems to integrate surround in alsa
[17:13] <iRy> which tool do you use wele?
[17:13] <Diverdude> i can only copy text from thinlinc to ubuntu, not the other way. What is the cause of that?
[17:13] <lorenzo> #ubuntu-it-chat
[17:13] <wele> xchat
[17:13] <Scunizi> Doing a "ls .bash*" gives me 5 files all relating to bash.  Opening a file manager and un-hiding hidden directories then looking in ~... there is nothing bash related that shows up as a dot file.  What's going on?
[17:14] <IdleOne> wele: if you are using xchat, the nick list is to the right but you have to expand it, it is hidden by default
[17:14] <Scunizi> take that back.. files are there..
[17:14] <sometux> \0
[17:15] <wele> am new in ubuntu
[17:15] <delinquentme> anyone know of any approximate SAFARI engine browsers for ubuntu???
[17:15] <wele> and i down load xchat from terminal
[17:15] <Dug_> duffydack....
[17:15] <Dug_> your a genius!
[17:15] <ChogyDan> delinquentme: google-chrome?
[17:16] <Dug_> i have sound again :P
[17:16] <tishammer> why would a partition owned by user-a change owner to root, after mounting a partition over it, even if in fstab i have options users,owner ?
[17:16] <duffydack> Dug_,   hmm ok...
[17:16] <iRy> does somebody has knowledge about alsa??
[17:16] <duffydack> Dug_,  cat /proc/modules  and pastebin it
[17:16] <Dug_> ok
[17:16] <wele> is there any irc program better and easy then xchat
[17:16] <duffydack> Dug_, probably just not loading the module.,.
[17:16] <delinquentme> ChogyDan, i thought so ...  but ive got some stuff thats just destroyed in chrome but is beautiful on safari
[17:16] <Dug_> hmm
[17:17] <IdleOne> wele: on the right hand side of you xchat window you will see a vertical border with 3 short horizontal lines in the middle of it, click on it and drag it to the left
[17:17] <Dug_> so is there a way round this or i have to delete new kernel and go back to old ?
[17:17] <BluesKaj> wele, yes , it's called knonversation
[17:17] <Dug_> here is the pastebin btw http://pastebin.com/9RZrP4W3
[17:17] <iRy> wele: using empathy is quite easy to use
[17:17] <ChogyDan> wele: there is also pidgin
[17:17] <gasull> sacarlson: My understanding is that eCryptFS won't help in this scenario: My laptop is broken or I don't have it with me and I am travelling. I can access my encrypted documents in Dropbox. If I was using eCryptFS, can I decrypt them?
[17:18] <Dug_> also emesene thats m favourite :P
[17:18] <ubun00b> iRy: http://alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Main_Page
[17:18] <duffydack> Dug_, I can see right away there are other modules used now....
[17:18] <Dug_> hmm
[17:18] <Dug_> so im guessing it definatly was the new kernel...
[17:18] <Dug_> the update broke my sound :O
[17:18] <wele> IdleOne there is nothing on the right all i have name of channel in the left side and down there is users 1457
[17:19] <wele> BluesKaj how i download it?
[17:19] <duffydack> Dug_,  reboot into the new kernel
[17:19] <iRy> ubun00b: i know this side but i have a special problem, everytime a song ends alsa kicks out my usb sound device and rythmbox brings up an error and skips to the next song, then alsa loads my usb device but the settings are wrong
[17:19] <Dug_> ok so just reboot or do i need to use shift again and select new one ?
[17:20] <duffydack> Dug_, just reboot
[17:20] <Dug_> ok
[17:20] <Dug_> brb then
[17:20] <BluesKaj> wele, in the terminal , sudo apt-get install konversation
[17:20] <vingian> hello

[17:21] <Dug_> back duffydack
[17:22] <gasull> vingian: System -> Preferences -> Screen saver -> Power management
[17:22] <Falcz> WinstonSmith: Np, thanks for taking the time anyhow :)
[17:22] <sajish> i have an 47gb partiton free on my HDD, can i able to merge it with my ubuntu installed drive ?
[17:22] <WinstonSmith> Falcz, welcome :D
[17:23] <constantin_mike> can anyone help me?
[17:23] <gasull> sajish: I think so.  Google gparted.
[17:23] <constantin_mike> [repeat] i have a ubuntu 10.04.1 server, with bind9 that would not start
[17:23] <zatan> sajish,  its going to take you ages to merge 47gb
[17:23] <constantin_mike> htop
[17:23] <ubun00b> how to run a .run script in terminal that "must be run as root"... how do I change to root?
[17:23] <dmex> !gparted | sajish
[17:23] <WinstonSmith> !ask | constantin_mike
[17:23] <vingian> gasull: not using gnome - using lxde - however already checked gnome-power-preferences
[17:23] <Dug_> you need me to pastebin anything again duffydack whilst in the new kernel ?
[17:24] <gasull> ubun00b: sudo ./script.run
[17:24] <vingian> inactive sleep has been disabled
[17:24] <WinstonSmith> sajish, u could try this : http://embraceubuntu.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/
[17:24] <ubun00b> yes, i did that and got window saying script.run must be run as root
[17:24] <duffydack> Dug_,  try sudo modprobe snd_hda_codec_si3054
[17:24] <Dug_> ok
[17:24] <IdleOne> !sparatehome | sajish
[17:24] <IdleOne> !separatehome | sajish
[17:25] <duffydack> Dug_,  check your sound
[17:25] <jellow> ubun00b: run as root using sudo
[17:25] <Dug_> hmm i get a warning then fatal error when i run that command :s
[17:25] <duffydack> Dug_,  alsamixer and/or sound applet
[17:25] <vingian> gasull: how/what monitor's system inactivity?
[17:25] <ubun00b> ok, now it says "you appear to be running an x server. exit first"
[17:25] <duffydack> Dug_,  sudo modprobe snd_hda_codec_realtek
[17:25] <Dug_> http://pastebin.com/yNKwwgMH
[17:26] <Dug_> ok
[17:26] <tishammer> why would a partition owned by user-a change owner to root, after mounting a partition over it, even if in fstab i have options users,owner ?
[17:26] <Dug_> still no sound ill try the last sudo command you gave
[17:26] <sajish> any in-detail precedure to do the same with gparted ?
[17:26] <elitexray> I get loading errors when I'm browsing either google chrome or ff. Is this related to ubuntu?
[17:26] <sajish> i mean with the screenshots & stuffs
[17:26] <gasull> vingian: paste the error. I need some context
[17:26] <duffydack> Dug_,  sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel
[17:27] <Dug_> i get the same again :(
[17:27] <Dug_> ok
[17:27] <jellow> ubun00b: what are trying to run anyway?
[17:27] <WinstonSmith> !separatehome | sajish
[17:27] <Dug_> still getting fatal errors :(
[17:27] <WinstonSmith> sajish, read the link
[17:27] <duffydack> Dug_,  pastebin  cat /etc/modules
[17:27] <Dug_> with sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel
[17:27] <Dug_> ok
[17:27] <ubun00b> in GNOME Terminal 2.29.6 trying to run fresh nvidia driver install package from downloaded .run file that apparently is a shell script
[17:28] <duffydack> Dug_,   maybe there is a bug in the latest kernel...
[17:28] <Dug_> not sure if i done this one right :s http://pastebin.com/9UBQ5eHM
[17:28] <ikonia> ubun00b: it's a binary file
[17:28] <ikonia> ubun00b: I strongly advise you not to use it
[17:28] <Dug_> hmm maybe i dunno :s
[17:28] <jellow> ubun00b: you can try and kill Xorg and run from tty
[17:28] <ubun00b> using sudo it complains about an X server running that needs to be exited first "before installing"
[17:28] <ikonia> ubun00b: use the drivers out of the ubuntu drivers tool
[17:28] <ubun00b> OK
[17:29] <WinstonSmith> ubun00b, system>administration>hardware drivers
[17:29] <jellow> ubun00b: listen to ikonia :P
[17:29] <Scunizi> sudo apt-get update results in a hung terminal window
[17:29] <WinstonSmith> jellow, i concur :)
[17:29] <duffydack> Dug_,  pastebin cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
[17:29] <Dug_> ok
[17:30] <Dug_> here you go duffydack, http://pastebin.com/jkThVaUf
[17:31] <vingian> gasull: there is no error
[17:32] <ubun00b> ikonia: I am running the video (nvidia) drivers I installed last night from the ubuntu drivers tool, which said to get full features I need to install the latest updates from nvidia which I am trying to do.
[17:32] <mcl0vin> howdy folks, have a n00be question here, so i am running 9.10 on my mini hp notebook and i want to change it to remix..is there a way i can do this without loosing my data ?
[17:32] <duffydack> Dug_,   hmm I dont know if this will work but  edit /etc/modules
[17:32] <vingian> gasull: as i said i already disabled the sleep on inactivity - however if i leave machine on and step away for >30 minutes, my machine has shutdown
[17:32] <ikonia> ubun00b: which full features are you missing, and what said that
[17:32] <duffydack> Dug_,  and put these, 1 per line     snd_hda_codec_si3054     snd_hda_codec_realtek   snd_hda_intel
[17:32] <IdleOne> ubun00b: Do the drivers provided by Ubuntu work ?
[17:32] <ubun00b> these startup drivers work ok, but don't provide 3D or animations in GUI, so it says
[17:32] <gasull> vingian: sorry, I don't know
[17:32] <duffydack> Dug_, reboot
[17:33] <ikonia> ubun00b: so what says
[17:33] <Dug_> ok in terminal "edit /etc/modules" or go to the actual location myself and edit ?
[17:33] <ubun00b> The ubuntu drivers list that shows "this driver is not activated" and Activate button
[17:33] <duffydack> Dug_,     gksu gedit /etc/modules
[17:33] <ubun00b> but it's running anyway
[17:33] <Dug_> ok
[17:33] <ikonia> ubun00b: it's not
[17:33] <ikonia> ubun00b: if it's not active, it's not using the nvidia driver
[17:33] <mori64> when i run pidgin it doesn't active up to i deleted my account and add new account ! what can i do?
[17:33] <ikonia> ubun00b: I'll ask 1 more time
[17:33] <vingian> gasull: i am thinking perhaps its whatever process that acts upon these settings is not behaving correctly and was wondering what manages the power settings and behavior on ubuntu?
[17:33] <ikonia> ubun00b: what tool keeps telling you to update your nvidia drivers
[17:33] <ubun00b> ok, but when i clicked activate, nothing seemed to change
[17:34] <ikonia> ubun00b: what tool keeps telling you to update your nvidia drivers
[17:34] <ubun00b> i'll try to refind the tool I first encountered last night on 1st use of Ubuntu Lucid
[17:34] <ikonia> ubun00b: once you click activate, you'll need to reboot
[17:34] <ikonia> ubun00b: once you've rebooted, you need to check using the same tool if the driver is now marked as "Active"
[17:34] <Dug_> duffydack you mind i pastebin what i have to you before i save it and reboot ? just incase it screws up on me if i done it wrong :P
[17:35] <IdleOne> ikonia: in the Hardware Drivers it says that Ubuntu does not provide support for those drivers ( can't update them)
[17:35] <mcl0vin> howdy folks, have a n00be question here, so i am running 9.10 on my mini hp notebook and i want to change it to remix..is there a way i can do this without loosing my data ?
[17:35] <IdleOne> ikonia: I think he is misunderstanding what that means exactly
[17:35] <ikonia> IdleOne: what ?
[17:35] <ubun00b> it was the Hardware Drivers icon in top upper right bar that I first opened to install drivers when Gnome desktop first loaded from Live USB flash drive.
[17:35] <duffydack> k
[17:35] <ikonia> ubun00b: are you using a livecd ?
[17:36] <ubun00b> OK, this a.m. I have totally rebooted and autologged in as live user (default) and will recheck the tool
[17:36] <Dug_> ok here you go duffydack http://pastebin.com/5kgRtKF6
[17:36] <duffydack> Dug_,  just 1 more thing.   ls -al /lib/modules/2.6.32-24-generic/kernel/sound/pci/hda/       is there an sis one there?
[17:36] <Dug_> ok ill check
[17:36] <ubun00b> Live USB thumbdrive boot that works nicely, created with pendrive
[17:36] <ikonia> ubun00b: ok - you won't be able to do that
[17:36] <duffydack> Dug_, your other pastebins are saying the files arent there or something else...
[17:36] <IdleOne> ikonia: when you use the hardware drivers tool there is a "warning" about the drivers being supported by nvidia and not by Canonical or something to that effect. I don't remember the exact wording
[17:36] <ubun00b> do what exactly?
[17:36] <Dug_> oh :s
[17:36] <ikonia> ubun00b: the reason is, to activeate the propriatary drivers, you need to reboot, but the livecd is not stateful, so it won't allow that
[17:37] <duffydack> Dug_,  is snd-hda-codec-si3054.ko     or snd-hda-intel    there?
[17:37] <ubun00b> so since I now love Ubuntu/linux I should proceed with a real install to HDD of Lucid LTS?
[17:37] <Dug_> hmm
[17:37] <IdleOne> ubun00b: yes :)
[17:37] <ubun00b> will that allow the proprietary nvidia drivers to run & persist?
[17:37] <IdleOne> yes
[17:37] <Dr_Willis> ubun00b:  Thats how it normally works.
[17:38] <Dug_> snd-hda-codec-si3054.ko is there
[17:38] <ubun00b> Nokay guys thanks loads, I can't wait to finally ditch Windoze Pista after I learn this for 1 week.
[17:38] <Dr_Willis> ubun00b:  you can set up a persistant-save file on a usb 'pendrive' live type install and get them working. but a 'real' install is thebest way
[17:38] <mcl0vin> Dr_Willis: will you be able to help me please
[17:39] <Dug_> and so is snd-hda-intel but it has .ko at the end so snd-hda-intel.ko
[17:39] <Dug_> is that good or ?
[17:39] <ikonia> ubun00b: it's called "windows Vista" please use it's proper name rather than stupid attempts to be derogatory
[17:39] <duffydack> Dug_,   pastebin    cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
[17:39] <ubun00b> ok, so sorry
[17:39] <Dug_> ok
[17:40] <ubun00b> any ref for creating a persistant -save file on the usb boot pendrive?
[17:40] <Dangerface> ok
[17:40] <Dug_> here you go http://pastebin.com/ncxL9BsN
[17:40] <IdleOne> !usb | ubun00b
[17:40] <IdleOne> ubun00b: see the second link ubottu just gave you
[17:40] <Dug_> should i save my gksu gedit /etc/modules you told me to add ?
[17:41] <Dr_Willis> ubun00b:  the usb-disk-creator tool on the live cd. can do it automatically
[17:41] <duffydack> Dug_,  not sure it`ll work but yeah.. you can always undo it later
[17:41] <Dug_> ok saving it now
[17:41] <ubun00b> will do, thanks, over & ouch
[17:41] <Dug_> done
[17:41] <Dug_> should i reboot now or is there anything else you need me to do first ?
[17:42] <duffydack> Dug_,  reboot
[17:42] <Dangerface> I hear from my friend, phpbb3.0.7 is injection-able, I search on internet and I found the possible injection in site/download/file.php - its possible to run a shellcode, but what can a shellcode do to my phpbb forum ?
[17:42] <Dug_> ok ill brb
[17:43] <mori64> when i run pidgin it doesn't active up to i deleted my account and add new account ! what can i do?
[17:44] <Dug_> duffydack, still no sound :(
[17:45] <Dug_> and i checked the hardware tab in sound preferences nothing there :(
[17:45] <constantin_mike> hello, with the ubuntu server 10.04.1, if i ping www.google.com, it says ping: unknown host www.google.com, but if i ping an ip, it works. i need to make it ping names, since apt-get won't work this way. can anyone help?rn
[17:45] <constantin_mike> clear
[17:45] <FloodBot3> constantin_mike: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:45] <duffydack> Dug_,  ok, edit /etc/modules again and remove those lines
[17:45] <Dug_> ok
[17:45] <constantin_mike> oops ...
[17:45] <duffydack> Dug_,  1 more thing to try... after your reboot into the working kernel.
[17:46] <duffydack> Dug_, if all else fails, just use the older kernel... maybe a kernel update will fix it..
[17:46] <Dug_> ok
[17:46] <Dug_> so what should i do now reboot ?
[17:46] <Dug_> fter saving
[17:46] <duffydack> yup
[17:46] <Dug_> *after
[17:46] <duffydack> yup
[17:46] <FloodBot3> Dug_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:46] <Dug_> ok
[17:47] <Dug_> once i have rebooted could you help me revert to the older kernel please ?
[17:47] <duffydack> k
[17:47] <Dug_> thanks :) ill brb gonna reboot
[17:49] <Dug_> ok im back duffydack
[17:49] <ubun00b> Yes, success. After rebooting PC to Live USB pendrive Lucid LTS, the System-Administration-Hardware Drivers tool, on fresh start, now does show NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 176), "Tested by the Ubuntu developers" proprietary license, "This driver is activated and currently in use."
[17:50] <duffydack> Dug_,  right see what it says when you sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel
[17:50] <Dug_> ok
[17:50] <WinstonSmith> constantin_mike, try reading : http://linux.about.com/od/ubusrv_doc/a/ubusg16t03.htm
[17:51] <Dug_> i get a fatal error again :s
[17:51] <ubun00b> thanks to all.  and why did someone reply that the .run shell script downloaded from nvidia "is a binary"? I thought binaries were .bin files. ~n00bly
[17:51] <duffydack> Dug_,  hmm, and sound works
[17:51] <Dug_> no
[17:51] <Dug_> did i need to boot up in the old kernel ? with shift ? :s
[17:51] <duffydack> Yes...
[17:51] <Dug_> oh... crap sorry :/
[17:51] <duffydack> hehe
[17:51] <Dug_> ill brb again then lol sorry about this
[17:52] <duffydack> I just wanted to know if that error was there in the working kernel as well
[17:52] <Dug_> ok
[17:52] <Dug_> brb
[17:52] <Freudlund> if a software i'm installing on lucid is asking for the folder where openoffice is installed(it's gonna headless convert documents on a server basis), what folder should i put in?
[17:54] <Freudlund> Or is the OpenOffice that ships with lucid not capable of running headless(which my noob thinking interprets as "in the background")?
[17:54] <mcl0vin> is it possible to go from karmic koala 9.10 to remix on a mini HP notebook without losing my data
[17:54] <xangua> mcl0vin: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook
[17:55] <mcl0vin> xangua: will it install it on top of the 9.10 or overide it
[17:55] <Dug_> ok im back duffydack in the old kernel with sound working
[17:55] <Dug_> what was the command you wanted me to do ?
[17:55] <sirlark> Hi, I've just taken over the admin of an oldish server (circa 2004) It has an intel hardware raid controller (PCI addon card)
[17:55] <duffydack> Dug_,  right see what it says when you sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel
[17:56] <Dug_> ok
[17:56] <c3l> how do I use two monitors in console?
[17:56] <lool_> bsr
[17:56] <Dug_> i get this
[17:56] <sirlark> one of the drives in the raid 5 has failed, and I was wondering if there are any software tools that could talk to the controller, or do I have to reboot all the time to manipulate the raid through the bios console?
[17:56] <Dug_> WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/sound, it will be ignored in a future release.
[17:56] <Dug_> no fatal error though
[17:57] <lool_> the french ?
[17:57] <WinstonSmith> mcl0vin it will install on top
[17:58] <Dug_> so is that good or ?
[17:59] <duffydack> Dug_,  ok..  it might be possible to copy the good files to the bad kernels files..  a dirty fix but might work. or just stick with the old kernel..
[18:00] <Dug_> hmm i think id like to lay it safe and stick with the older kernel for a while and maybe try update when a newer kernel comes out
[18:00] <duffydack> Dug_,  uname -r
[18:00] <Dug_> since my laptop is mega cheap and its hard to get certain hardware in here working properlly lol xD
[18:00] <Dug_> thats all uname -r and its done ? xD
[18:01] <elitexray> how cheap is cheap
[18:01] <mcl0vin> 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook says can't find pkg
[18:01] <ryanrhee901> i'm trying to set up postfix, but i messed up and installed sendmail to see how it'd be. Now, even though I removed sendmail, telnet-ing to localhost @ port 25 shows me "ESMTP Sendmail 8.14.3/8.14.3/Debian-9.1ubuntu1;". Can you help me remove the remnants of sendmail?
[18:02] <n0a1ias> what kernal does ubuntu use?
[18:02] <Dug_> after uname -r i get "2.6.32-21-generic" so is it done already ?
[18:02] <Migi32> hi everyone, I have this: A 9.04 CD and a working 10.04. Is it in any way possible to use these 2 to get a new 10.04 working without downloading anything?
[18:02] <Migi32> I mean, without downloading anything on the new box
[18:03] <duffydack> Dug_,  no.. just wanted to know what kernel version it was
[18:03] <Dug_> oh xD
[18:03] <Dug_> was gonna say was easy xD
[18:03] <sproaty> Hi, I resized my ubuntu partition (10.04, 64b) using GParted live CD (really cool..) - and then installed Windows 7 on that resized partition. This overwrote my boot loader now - and it'll only boot into Windows. How do I go about dual booting it
[18:03] <sipior> ryanrhee901: how exactly did you remove sendmail?
[18:03] <duffydack> Dug_,  thats the kernel at lucids release.. hmm..
[18:03] <Dug_> is that a problem ? :s
[18:04] <n0a1ias> how do i make an alias so that rm is replaced with rm -i ?
[18:04] <chetnick> is there like emerald theme pack? When I install emerald on other distro/OS (Gentoo, FreeBSD), emerald is by default installed with a dozen of themes.
[18:04] <ubun00b> ikonia: (as Monzy rapped "so much drama in the PhD") now finding new menu item, System/Administration/Nvidia X Server Settings and running it first time gets Error popup box sez: 'Could not launch Nvidia X Server Settings' Failed to execute child process "/usr/bin/nvidia-settings" (No such file or directory), with Close button to exit. Searching that path I find /usr/bin/nvidia-xconfig link to executable, but cont the specified tar
[18:04] <ubun00b> get. Any suggestions?
[18:05] <Migi32> hey everyone, can I "export" the packages I have installed on this ubuntu to another?
[18:05] <preetam> please help my blueZ deamon is not starting so unable to run blueman
[18:05] <IdleOne> !clone | Migi32
[18:05] <ikonia> ubun00b: are you running from a proper install now ?
[18:05] <duffydack> Dug_,  just sayin.   when did you install ubuntu
[18:05] <Dug_> erm cant quite remember think it was like begining of this month
[18:05] <Dug_> or atleast 2 weeks ago
[18:06] <chetnick> ubun00b: try reinstalling nvidia-settings, It looks like it's not installed.
[18:06] <ubun00b> no, the live usb but it seems to have persisted the drivers install from earlier after rebooting.
[18:06] <Dug_> but i havent used this laptop that much since installing ubuntu tbh
[18:07] <ubun00b> yes, it's not, but all I did was the recommended hardware drivers tool activation then reboot, how would i reinstall the nvidia-settings child process?
[18:07] <timewriter> hi
[18:07] <Migi32> IdleOne, sorry I'd like to export the full packages, not just a list of their names
[18:07] <timewriter> anyone can help me with a display issue ?
[18:07] <chetnick> ubun00b: I'm not on Ubuntu now, but I belive apt-get install nvidia-settings would do it.
[18:07] <guest> does anybody know how to promote an idea to 'Ideas in development' in ideatorrent?
[18:07] <duffydack> Dug_,   just wondering if reinstalling that newer kernel might fix it..
[18:08] <IdleOne> Migi32: doing it that way you would also have to export the package dependencies...lots of packages but see !aptoncd
[18:08] <Dug_> hmm
[18:08] <Migi32> !aptoncd
[18:08] <timewriter> i have activated the nvidia-current drivers , and it seems that vertical sync isnt enabled anymore
[18:08] <ubun00b> since nvidia sez it's an X Server is there a simple way to stop/restart that nvidia X Server settings?
[18:08] <Dug_> how would i do that ?
[18:08] <Migi32> !offline
[18:09] <chetnick> ubun00b: nvidia-settings is just graphical front end (configuration tool) for nvidia-drivers.
[18:09] <duffydack> dug hangon
[18:09] <Dug_> ok
[18:09] <chetnick> ubun00b: now i'm not even sure what are you trying to accomplish.
[18:10] <ubun00b> yes, trying 1st run Settings GUI after tool installed the correct tested proprietary nVidia drivers
[18:10] <ubun00b> from clicking menu item:  System/Administration/Nvidia X Server Settings
[18:11] <chetnick> ubun00b: Ok once you install nvidia proprietary drivers, run sudo nvidia-xconfig, that will create new xorg.conf and backup old one. Restart X (log out, or reboot) and then try.
[18:11] <duffydack> Dug_,   just stick with the working kernel
[18:12] <Dug_> ok i will
[18:12] <chetnick> ubun00b: make sure you have nvidia-settings install before you try to run it.
[18:12] <Dug_> how do i remove the new one so that i always boot on the older one instead of having to shift on bootup ?
[18:12] <duffydack> Dug_,  run synaptic
[18:12] <chetnick> is there like emerald theme pack? When I install emerald on other distro/OS (Gentoo, FreeBSD), emerald is by default installed with a dozen of themes.
[18:12] <Dug_> ok
[18:13] <Dug_> synaptic is open now
[18:13] <JackyAlcine> Excuse me, I need to reset my audio configuration; how do you do that?
[18:13] <duffydack> Dug_,  click search  type  2.6.32-24
[18:13] <duffydack> Dug_, the 3 files marked green (installed) just right click them and remove
[18:14] <Dug_> ok then i should be always running of the old kernel once they are removed ?
[18:14] <duffydack> Dug_,  just reboot and press shift, should be only one there.
[18:14] <Dug_> ok :)
[18:14] <p1und3r> hey all, is there any way I could secure a Windows formatted drive with Ubuntu
[18:14] <Dug_> i have a quick question about the "shift" on boot thoug if you dont mind ?
[18:14] <duffydack> Dug_,  have you not updated the kernel before now?
[18:15] <Dug_> apparently not :s
[18:15] <Dug_> i dont read the updates when i do them lol
[18:15] <duffydack> Dug_,  so there are only 2 to choose from at boot
[18:15] <Dug_> if i remove this im guessin gi should have the working kernel showing with another option in safe mode ?
[18:15] <duffydack> Dug_,  ye
[18:16] <Dug_> ok, so am i right in thinking each time there is a kernel update they all display in there so if i update my kernel 4 times it will give me 4 options on shift boot ?
[18:16] <duffydack> Dug_,   only for newer versions..
[18:17] <Dug_> hmm
[18:17] <Dug_> so it iwll show the old and new version it wont store the version before last ?
[18:17] <Dug_> so at most it will show 2 at all times ?
[18:17] <duffydack> Dug_,    it will show any version thats different
[18:17] <DarsVaeda> hi i installed sun java 6, but in firefox icedtea is still used, how do i change it?
[18:17] <Dug_> oh ok :)

[18:18]  * elkclone sounds alarm
[18:18] <Dug_> im gonna go remove these 3 things in synaptic you told me to then and reboot and see if it worked :) thanks a lot for your time ill be back to let you know if it worked :)
[18:18] <borito> what apt sourse do l use for getting the newest gnome ?
[18:18] <DarsVaeda> yep is down
[18:18] <sipior> drzin: welcome to the internet. did you have an ubuntu-related question for us?
[18:18] <duffydack> Dug_,   there can be updates to those too, which just replace the existing one as its the same branch
[18:18] <elkclone> hamidreza: its a card
[18:19] <HamidReza> yes in laptop
[18:19] <Dug_> ahh ok
[18:19] <ubun00b> chetnick: and ikonia: I successfully ran this command in terminal: sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings and part of the script included lines: Unpacking nvidia-settings (from .../nvidia-settings_195.36.08-0ubuntu2_i386.deb) ... ... cp: cannot stat `/vmlinuz': No such file or directory
[18:19] <ubun00b> and after it completed, now the new Nvidia X Server Settings runs, and appears it will let me tweak video settings. Thanks.
[18:19] <duffydack> Dug_,   dont worry about it.  just use older kernel for now
[18:19] <Dug_> ok :)
[18:19] <elkclone> hamidreza: you can run an app from gnome.
[18:19] <HamidReza> I have Atheros AR5007eg but lspci -v show Atheros AR242X. ubuntu 9.04
[18:19] <mikebeecham> guys...how do I begin a .run file from within ttyl?  I'm in the required folder,...I cant remember what to put before the filename?

[18:20] <HamidReza> what?
[18:20] <elkclone> you got gui?
[18:20] <duffydack> ikonia,  dont happen to know where someone would file a bug in ubuntu kernel?

[18:22] <elkclone> menue at top
[18:22] <duffydack> Dug_,  <ikonia> duffydack: launchpad.net in the linux-image package
[18:22] <elkclone> system>admin>hardware drivers
[18:22] <elkclone> it will do a search
[18:23] <Dug_> ahh ok thanks :) ive used the launchpad before for help didnt know i make bug reports to there :P
[18:23] <duffydack> Dug_, thing is, you might need to be running that kernel to get info from it to post :)
[18:23] <strashniq> elkclone
[18:23] <duffydack> Dug_,  like the error message when using modprobe
[18:23] <Pici> Dug_: run: ubuntu-bug linux   and it will automatically add debug information to a bug report and let you fill in a description.
[18:24] <duffydack> can tell how often i do bug rerports lol
[18:24] <HamidReza> there was one thing. Alternate Atheros "madwifi" driver
[18:24] <elkclone> strashniq
[18:24] <mcl0vin> ok using remix on a mini notebook when i RDP to a windows teminal server the windows is cut at the bottom , what shall i do please? how to fix this my mini is set to 1024x576(16:9)
[18:24] <strashniq> i want to make a script that changes my resolution to a defined by me after the X server loads all its modules
[18:25] <elkclone> hamidreza: give it a try
[18:25] <strashniq> *predefined
[18:25] <Dug_> oh ok, thanks Pici :)
[18:26] <strashniq> elkclone can you help me with such script ?
[18:26] <Dug_> but brb im going to test if it uses my older working kernel now when i restart
[18:26] <Dug_> will let you know how it goes :)
[18:26] <HamidReza> I had active that . but nothing
[18:27] <elkclone> strashniq: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/programming-9/bash-script-for-changing-screen-resolution-441864/
[18:27] <elkclone> that would be a good start
[18:28] <HamidReza> that dosen't work
[18:28] <HamidReza> !!
[18:28] <Pici> !who
[18:28] <elkclone> hamidreza: pull the card and clean it. lol.
[18:29] <jfcssp> zaima
[18:29] <Tetracomm> Hello.
[18:29] <HamidReza> elkclone:how? what does your mean?
[18:30] <tew88> Hello. My USB wireless adapter, which shows as a 'Ralink 3370' via lsusb does not work out-of-the-box. It's up and running on my Windows 7 install, but I've no idea how to go about installing drivers for it in Ubuntu (10.04) - any ideas?
[18:30] <elkclone> hamidreza: could the card be faulty?
[18:30] <ubun00b> Folks, every install event I've done in past 24 hours on this fresh 1st ever Lucid LTS system has apparently succeeded with programs runable and drivers installed, yet every install ended with the standard installation failed box, and all scripts end up reporting "... returned an error code (1)". That seems contradictory, why is Ubuntu reporting "failed" installations, when they have all apparently succeeded (dozens of them)?
[18:30] <Dug_> duffydack ?
[18:30] <Dug_> it worked :)

[18:37] <imanc> hey what do I need to do to get flash working on ubuntu 10.4?
[18:37] <trism> imanc: generally just: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer; in a terminal
[18:38] <imanc> trism - thanks!
[18:38] <deadish> Hello! :D
[18:38] <PigeonCluster> hey all, I want to set up so that there is an option in grub in which all of the filesystem but /home is Copy-On-Write to /tmp - how would I go about this?
[18:38] <deadish> I got a question
[18:38] <Strife89> I'm looking for Fabio Marconi.
[18:38] <iRy> could somebody help me on a ./configure problem installing alsa-utils1.0.23?
[18:39] <trism> deadish: just ask your question, someone will generally reply if they know the answer
[18:39] <PigeonCluster> iRy: same to you, just ask
[18:40] <bint> hi there
[18:40] <bars0> Hello everyone. I have a question. How to configure my Ubuntu 10.04 ro boot into text mode?
[18:40] <bint> i'm really new on ubunutu
[18:40] <PigeonCluster> Strife89: I'm not finding him.
[18:40] <bint> just installed ubunutu-server on a virtual pc
[18:40] <bint> but i kinda wanna have a desktop enviroment
[18:40] <bint> how can i install a desktop
[18:40] <PigeonCluster> bint: ask all in one line please, this channel can get busy and it's hard to read
[18:40] <bint> ok
[18:40] <iRy> started ./configure normaly for alsa utilities and it stops like this: checking for curses header name... <ncurses.h>
[18:40] <iRy> checking for curses compiler flags... -I/usr/include/ncursesw
[18:40] <iRy> checking for curses NLS support... yes
[18:40] <iRy> checking for sys/types.h... yes
[18:40] <iRy> checking for sys/stat.h... yes
[18:40] <FloodBot3> iRy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:40] <PigeonCluster> !paste
[18:40] <iRy> checking for stdlib.h... yes
[18:41] <xoveruk> what is a good gnome cd ripper to mp3?
[18:41] <imanc> if dual booting windows 7 and ubuntu - does ubuntu auto mount the C: drive of windows, and if so where does it put it?
[18:41] <bint> so anyone can give me a hint how to set-up ubuntu-server with a proper GUI
[18:41] <Strife89> PigeonCluster: As in, he's not on, or you're not about to look for him?
[18:41] <PigeonCluster> bars0: eh heh ... the desktop edition is designed to not boot into text mode. personally I would install the server edition and convert it to a specialized desktop setup.
[18:41] <guest1> Hellooooo any one???? here that can help me iron out 10.4 and samba in a domain envnt????????????????
[18:41] <PigeonCluster> Strife89: as in, I don't see him. (I was making a joke.)
[18:41] <Strife89> PigeonCluster: Ah. :)
[18:42] <tuxifier> imanc: /media
[18:42] <imanc> tuxifier: thanks!
[18:42] <sipior> guest1: the usual pattern is: you give us all the data you can, and then we try to answer your question.
[18:42] <Strife89> PigeonCluster: He seems to be the only active poster on this bug aside from me, and I wanted to discuss the behavior of my computer. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/382806
[18:42] <tuxifier> imanc: but it doesn't automount
[18:42] <kiffer> by connecting to it
[18:43] <PigeonCluster> ah. try messaging him on the bug system, eh, Strife89?
[18:43] <kiffer> o
[18:43] <kiffer> sorry wrong channel
[18:43] <tuxifier> imanc: but u should see it in your gnome file manager
[18:43] <Strife89> PigeonCluster: .... I completely forgot the bug tracker had a PM system. >.<
[18:43] <WinstonSmith> xoveruk, u can use rythmbox for that
[18:44] <iRy> sorry here again my failure: started ./configure normally and this failure came up http://paste.ubuntu.com/484065/. i don't have a idea what to do.
[18:44] <Strife89> Then again, it's related to the bug, so perhaps I should just write a long-ish comment.
[18:44] <imanc> tuxifier: so the media dir is there, but the C: drive needs mounting manually?
[18:44] <tuxifier> imanc: yepp
[18:45] <guest1> My bad 1st time here.  Here it goes fresh install of Ubuntu server 10.4, like wise open and then samba last just like the docs say to do.  Install of server ans like wise went well. I can ssh to the server with doman account. I can also log in w/ domain account 2 console.  its the dang samba thats getting me.  I can not browse the file server from a win machine.
[18:45] <Tetracomm> I can't find an autopsy channel and autopsy GUI won't load.
[18:45] <imanc> what is the ubuntu equivalent of winamp?
[18:45] <PigeonCluster> so, anyone with experience with AUFS copy-on-write or such?
[18:45] <tuxifier> imanc: and you need ntfs support installed (ntfs-3g)
[18:45] <RobertV> is there an equivalent mv syntax to do this: ren /really/long/directory/file.ext newfilename.ext
[18:45] <PigeonCluster> imanc: there are many music players, but xmms is the closest
[18:46] <RobertV> mv puts it in the current directory
[18:46] <sipior> guest1: which docs were you following?
[18:46] <ubun00b> On fresh install, what was program .../vmlinuz and where did it go? Why did it poof when some install scripts still look for it?
[18:46] <Strife89> Ah, yes, I was wondering about that .... I recently installed Ubuntu in a dual boot setup and wish to automount my NTFS partition on startup (currently it must be mounted manually).
[18:46] <trism> iRy: looks like you need libncurses5-dev
[18:46] <JackyAlcine> Excuse me, I need to reset my audio configuration; how do you do that?
[18:46] <guest1> sipior the docs directly from the ubuntu server 10.4 docs
[18:46] <iRy> normaly type sudo get-apt libncurses5-dev?
[18:47] <PigeonCluster> !who | Strife89
[18:47] <guest1> Samba as domain member
[18:47] <trism> iRy: sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev; yes
[18:47] <Strife89> PigeonCluster: Anyone, in the case of that last sentence.
[18:47] <iRy> trism: ok will try
[18:47] <PigeonCluster> Strife89: but I can't tell what you were responding to.
[18:48] <Strife89> PigeonCluster: <imanc> tuxifier: so the media dir is there, but the C: drive needs mounting manually?
[18:48] <sipior> RobertV: mv /really/long/directory/{oldname,newname} (that's bash doing the work, of course, not mv proper)
[18:48] <Strife89> PigeonCluster: That line made me think about it.
[18:48] <PigeonCluster> ahhh. I can answer that.
[18:49] <PigeonCluster> add the partition to /etc/fstab - you'll have to be root - and make sure to have an empty directory to mount it on.
[18:49] <RobertV> thanks
[18:49] <PigeonCluster> !fstab
[18:50] <Strife89> PigeonCluster: Would a manually-made directory in /media remain after a reboot?
[18:50] <PigeonCluster> yes
[18:50] <sipior> guest1: can you browse the volume from another linux box?
[18:50] <Strife89> Works for me, then. :)
[18:50] <guest1> Sipior nope
[18:51] <guest1> Sipior I can see the box but when i try to browse i get prompted for credentials
[18:51] <sipior> guest1: and which credentials do you attempt to use?
[18:52] <Strife89> PigeonCluster: Should I use the UUID instead of the /dev/x path? If so, how do I retrieve it?
[18:52] <guest1> Sipior I use the same as I used to ssh to the box and loged into the console  domain credentials that work
[18:52] <sipior> guest1: by the way, are these the docs you were using? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba
[18:52] <imanc> PigeonCluster, tuxifier, Strife89 - thanks for your help
[18:53]  * Strife89 didn't actually help, but you're welcome, imanc. :)
[18:54] <PigeonCluster> Strife89: uuid is preffered, I don't remember off the top of my head how to retrieve it, maybe gparted or fdisk
[18:54] <PigeonCluster> imanc: you're welcome :)
[18:54] <guest1> Sipior this is it           https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/samba-ad-integration.html
[18:55] <iRy> trism: still here?!
[18:55] <trism> iRy: yes, did it work?
[18:55] <iRy> trism: yes but next problem: http://paste.ubuntu.com/484070/
[18:56] <sipior> guest1: you'
[18:56] <sipior> v
[18:57] <Strife89> PigeonCluster: gparted shows the UUID in the Information window. :)
[18:57] <sipior> guest1: sorry. you've successfully added you linux box to the domain?
[18:57] <sipior> guest1: via domainjoin-cli, i mean.
[18:57] <trism> iRy: looks like you need libncursesw5-dev too
[18:57] <guest1> 10-4 domain account work fine @ the console and when I ssh to the box!
[18:57] <iRy> trism: ok will get it
[19:00] <ubun00b> what is program .../vmlinuz ?
[19:00] <sipior> guest1: could i get you to pastebin your smb.conf?
[19:00] <guest1> Sipior---- maybe this will help from the log files in /var/log/samba/log.<IP_ADDRESS> [19:00] <sipior> ubun00b: that would be the operating system kernel.

[19:02] <strashniq> can someone explain me how can i execute a shell script put into /etc/xdg/autostart ?
[19:02] <trism> iRy: the ncurses dev libraries, they are for creating graphical menus/interfaces in the terminal
[19:02] <sipior> guest1: no worries, i had forgotten that you had mentioned you were new to the channel, or i would've been a bit clearer :-)
[19:03] <iRy> oh ok... just install ubuntu few days ago

[19:03] <kyle_> anyone have an idea: i have a 3g modem thing. i can only use it if i boot with it plugged in
[19:03] <trism> iRy: you're welcome
[19:03] <Migi32> if I download an ISO from ubuntu.com (wtf? .com=company), will it be fully upgraded?
[19:05] <trism> Migi32: 10.04.1 will be pretty close, but there are still several updates since then
[19:05] <North_Italian69> how to create a list of installed packages?
[19:06] <ZykoticK9_nothom> !clone | North_Italian69
[19:06] <guest1> Siprio did that help???
[19:06] <LiquidDemocracy> Could someone please invite me to channel #hardware?
[19:06] <sipior> guest1: i think i missed the link you posted
[19:07] <PigeonCluster> how do I check if I have a kernel module (aufs) that I don't know where it's filed?
[19:07] <guest1> No i just dont know how to use this chat.
[19:07] <LiquidDemocracy> Do USB 3.0 drives have the same cables as USB 2.0? I am thinking about buying an USB 3.0 external hard disk but I my PC is already a few years old.

[19:08] <North_Italian69> !automate
[19:09] <polter> I know repeating ones self isn't a good thing in IRC, but I really can't figure out why some of the mod4 keyboard shortcuts in Awesome doesn't work, so if anyone has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated
[19:10] <joker__> can't install d-link pcmcia WLan.. can anyone help? Plz PM
[19:10] <guest1> Ok back to the books!!!!  thanks guys
[19:10] <PigeonCluster> polter: actually it's fine if there has been enough talk
[19:10] <Migi32> why is 64-bit "not recommended for daily usage"?
[19:11] <polter> PigeonCluster: well.. sure, but I'm always a bit careful not to be someone who keeps shouting the same stuff into the IRC over and over again
[19:11] <aeon-ltd> Migi32: incompatibility and bugs
[19:11] <sipior> Migi32: out of date information, frankly.
[19:11] <PigeonCluster> polter: of course. there are reasonable limits. no need to apologize while you're under them, though.
[19:11] <ZykoticK9_nothom> Migi32, see the bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-website-content/+bug/585940
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> Migi32: 3rd party company's still support 32bit better than 64bit. Company's like brother and lexmark only make 32bit drivers. Its to avoid disappointment
[19:12] <PigeonCluster> !msg | joker__
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> Migi32: if you have more than 3gb ram then i'd shoot for 64bit but pae is one way around it
[19:12] <PigeonCluster> !ask | joker
[19:12] <PigeonCluster> joker: whoops sorry
[19:13] <PigeonCluster> joker__: that was for you
[19:13] <infid> how can i hide desktop icons?
[19:13] <joker__> PigeonCluster, i have d-link airplus g dwl-g650 +A.. Ubuntu won't even detect it
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> Migi32: if you have less than 3gb ram and only need web browsing and suchlike then 32bit is an excellent choice
[19:14] <PigeonCluster> joker__: well first things first; will other OSes detect it?
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> infid: there's an option in gconf-editor
[19:14] <joker__> xp did
[19:14] <strashniq> hello, i want to create a script that starts after the KDE-to change my resolution!
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> Joker__: xp has different support
[19:14] <joker__> PigeonCluster, XP did
[19:14] <polter> dwl-g50 should work with madwifi
[19:14] <polter> g650 I mean
[19:15] <infid> ActionParsnip: any places for ubuntu to just let you right click the desktop and click 'hide/view icons'
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> Joker__: if you run: sudo lshw -C network ,do you see the wireless chip?
[19:15] <PigeonCluster> joker__: ok, do an 'lspci' in the console
[19:15] <polter> if madwifi is even used anymore, I don't do a lot of that stuff
[19:15] <joker__> polter, wats madwifi?
[19:15] <Migi32> ActionParsnip, aeon-ltd, I've been using 64-bit for a year now and have yet to have a problem with it.  There is an option in gconf, probably under nautilus as it draws the icons
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> Migi32: don't worry , it gets asked a lot
[19:16] <strashniq> ubbottu i got nothing from what you said
[19:16] <polter> joker__: madwifi was/is a collection of drivers for wifi chipsets from atheros
[19:16] <PigeonCluster> !ubottu | strashniq
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> strashniq: backtrack is offtopic for the channel
[19:16] <strashniq> i know
[19:16] <joker__> PigeonCluster, i do see
[19:16] <strashniq> ActionParsnip this was the only way i can draw your attenstion so you can help me
[19:16] <PigeonCluster> strashniq: well, if you just want to chat, see #ubuntu-offtopic
[19:17] <strashniq> nah
[19:17] <strashniq> i need help
[19:17] <strashniq> i ask for it 15 min
[19:17] <PigeonCluster> with backtrack? then see #backtrack-linux
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> strashniq: I haven't seen your question dude. Sorry. Sup?
[19:17] <strashniq> noooooooooooooo
[19:17] <PigeonCluster> >.>
[19:17] <PigeonCluster> !ask
[19:17] <strashniq> ActionParnsip i want to make a script that changes my resolution after the KDE finishes its loading stuff
[19:17] <hmca> !iscsi
[19:18] <sipior> strashniq: passive-aggressive behaviour is generally a great way to get yourself ignored.
[19:18] <strashniq> sipior i guess its partially due to staying here asking my question for 15-20 min ?
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> strashniq: ok I see it now. You could have a script use xrandr to set the res after logon. If you are using kde, put the script in $HOME/.kde/Autostart
[19:18] <strashniq> at last
[19:18] <sipior> strashniq: oh wow! fifteen minutes! you must be a really important and busy person!
[19:19] <strashniq> ActionParnsip Thank you
[19:19] <joker__> ActionParsnip, http://paste.ubuntu.com/484082/
[19:19] <strashniq> sipior the question i asked was answerd in less than 10 sec - don`t be rude
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> strashniq: if you use an xorg.conf file you won't need the script, both are fine solutions
[19:19] <joker__> PigeonCluster, http://paste.ubuntu.com/484082/
[19:19] <sipior> strashniq: bye now.
[19:19] <Wild> I've got an issue with Google earth. It opens..and within a few seconds closes itself automatically
[19:20] <Migi32> also, ActionParsnip, what is it with this "3GB"? 32-bit OS systems should be able to address 2^32 addresses = exactly 4GB of ram.
[19:20] <Wild> anyone know what the issue might be or how I could fix this?
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> Joker__: ok it has a driver. If you run: sudo iwlist scan ,do you see access points?
[19:20] <ZykoticK9_nothom> !pae | Migi32
[19:21] <PigeonCluster> Migi32: probably his mistake. last I checked, my ubuntu 32bit non-pae can see 4G of ram on my 8Gig machines
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> Migi32: it will only see 3.4Gb under 32bit. I just round off
[19:21] <polter> Wild: run it from terminal and paste output to paste.ubuntu.com
[19:21] <ledoktre> greetings!
[19:21] <Wild> ok thanks.
[19:21] <polter> Wild: maybe there and error to be found in that
[19:21] <PigeonCluster> 3.4Gb (powers of 10) == 4G  (powers of 2)
[19:21] <Wild> Ok
[19:21] <x_> \list
[19:22] <amokpaule> Hello, i have an wireless keyboard and mouse from logitech which does not work anymore. I coneckted another wireless keyboard and mouse set which works now.
[19:22] <joker__> PigeonCluster, http://paste.ubuntu.com/484083/
[19:22] <ledoktre> Anyone in here know about pulseaudio and Intel ICH7 controllers?
[19:22] <ActionParsnip> Migi32: but I agree. 64bit is fine as long as the support you need extends into 64bit
[19:23] <ActionParsnip> amokpaule: run: dmesg | less ,and read the boot messages. It may give clues
[19:23] <WinstonSmith> wild : install the older version
[19:23] <infid> ActionParsnip: you cant do it from gconf, have to use a script like http://www.ivy.fr/blog/index.php/2008/05/08/85-from-macos-to-ubuntu-show-hide-desktop-icons-on-gnome
[19:23] <WinstonSmith> the last one crashes
[19:24] <Migi32> well, I think saying 64-bit is "not recommended" => most people use 32-bit => applications are developed/tested mainly for 32-bit => 64-bit is "not recommended".
[19:24] <Migi32> we need to break out of that
[19:24] <Migi32> but anyway I gtg
[19:24] <Migi32> bye
[19:24] <WinstonSmith> gtg cya all :D
[19:24] <vivek312> where do i can get free projects??

[19:26] <Wild> the older version?
[19:27] <joker__> PigeonCluster, : i downloaded linux driver from its official site but don't know how to install?
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> botcity: 2 options, use wicd which will allow both. Or (my choice) configure the wired in /etc/network/interfaces and use network manager to manage the wireless
[19:27] <PigeonCluster> stop directing your questions at me, I don't care about your problems. I only help when I find it fun.
[19:27] <steed> hello all.
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> botcity: if you connect both interfaces to the same subnet the you will get issues
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> Joker__: did the cli scan not find APs?
[19:28] <joker__> PigeonCluster, : it has 2 folders : (1)Module (2)wpa_supplicant-0.4.9

[19:29] <steed> hey, i had a networking question, i want to make my wireless connection come out my ethernet port. would i have to set up a bridge?
[19:29] <ActionParsnip> st_iron: sure. You can install offline with the desktop iso too

[19:30] <horim> hi all
[19:30] <gaurav> how can install gnome shell 3 in my ubuntu 10.04
[19:30] <_eXeCuTeR> how can i make pidgin appear where xchat appears when it's running? (upper panel, right side)
[19:30] <kiffer> can i get paperclip ?
[19:30] <horim> can anyone kindly help me make the wireless ipw2200 in this laptop work?
[19:30] <zeleftikam> holy crap printing is PAINFULLY SLOW. the document is sent to the printer and it just sits there, HP LaserJet 1200. What to check?
[19:30] <horim> I am using ubuntu 10.4
[19:30] <ZykoticK9_nothom> gaurav, install the gnome-shell package?
[19:31] <polter> gaurav: gnome-shell is in the 10.04 repositories
[19:31] <sipior> zeleftikam: how big is the document?
[19:32] <zeleftikam> sipior: hi again :) it's a 251k shipping label
[19:32] <gaurav> how i install gnome shell 3 in ubuntu 10.04
[19:32] <zeleftikam> printed from Firefox
[19:32] <zeleftikam> under Mac OS X it would print in 10 seconds
[19:32] <zeleftikam> the printer is flashing, the gates are down, but there ain't no train
[19:32] <m0gg> gaurav: sudo apt-get install gnome-shell
[19:32] <polter> gaurav: you can use Ubuntu Software Centre. Search for gnome-shell. If you want the latest greatest version you might have to find another source to use'
[19:32] <ActionParsnip> zeleftikam: grab the latest hplip from the hplip site. May help
[19:33] <zeleftikam> ActionParsnip: do you mean hplib?
[19:33] <sipior> zeleftikam: nice metaphor :-) might be worth saving the file and then printing it without involving firefox.
[19:33] <tew88> My USB wireless adapter isn't working in Ubuntu 10.04. It shows up as a "Ralink 3370" with lsusb. Anyone recommend a solution?
[19:33] <ActionParsnip> zeleftikam: no. Hplip. What macos does is entirely moot as its a different OS with different support
[19:34] <steed> is there a channel for questions and help?
[19:34] <zeleftikam> well, i understand that OS X is completely different, but the point of me telling you that is to show that it's not a pre-existing issue with the printer itself
[19:34] <Nikie> Help needed...All of a sudden...the icon that dipicts the battery charged stopped showing the status "charging". How do i fix it ?
[19:34] <zeleftikam> steed: i think you're here!
[19:34] <Nikie> *
[19:35] <Pici> steed: You're in the official Ubuntu Support channel, were you looking for something else?
[19:36] <botcity>  if  i configure the wired in /etc/network/interfaces will this bypass network manager ? is there some kind of how to or guide out there?
[19:37] <Nikie> Help needed...The icon that depicts the status of the battery stopped showing the status "charging". How do i fix it ?
[19:37] <ZykoticK9_nothom> botcity, as soon as you specify a device in /etc/network/interfaces Network Manager will be disabled "not managed" for that device.  Good luck.
[19:37] <PigeonCluster> Nikie: I would make sure it isn't actually the hardware
[19:37] <gaurav> is gnome 3 is relases
[19:37] <marcuy> Nikie, maybe it has already charged ;)
[19:38] <Pici> gaurav: no.

[19:39] <ecivo> Hi, if my harddrive has bad sectors and routinely produces errors, which tool do I use to transfer a drive image to a new drive, even if the new drive has a diffrent size?
[19:39] <marcuy> Craig`, you should try iwconfig

[19:40] <michael2> hi; can i someho restore screen settings for a user externally? i tried rotation and everytime i login the screen is fully black
[19:40] <ecivo> There are multible partions on the old drive, including win & linux partions
[19:40] <marcuy> !display | michael2
[19:41] <ecivo> m0gg, I thought of that... So simply connecting the new drive as slave and copying from the old one, then replacing old with new?
[19:41] <Nikie> Marcuy - Am a newbie to linux & ubuntu...:) So, Unlike in windows, if the battery is fully charged, wouldn't it show that the battery is charging ??
[19:41] <michael2> well; it works until i login to my gnome desktop; so there should be some user settings i have to remove
[19:42] <marcuy> Nikie, if it's charging it won't show when charged
[19:42] <m0gg> ecivo: sent you a dialogue
[19:43] <marcuy> !welcome | phil_iph
[19:43] <phil_iph> Is greasemonkey extension for Firefox open-source ?
[19:44] <marcuy> phil_iph, depends on what extension
[19:44] <marcuy> !welcome | sluther
[19:44] <North_Italian69> how to list the packages installed by user, not the default system one?
[19:44] <phil_iph> marcuy:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greasemonkey it writes Expat License . what that means ? we cant know if we use open source plu-gins on firefox :(
[19:45] <openofficefail> anyone know how to fix openoffice (which doesn't start anymore) after a recent upgrade yesterday?
[19:45] <marcuy> North_Italian69, you can't know that
[19:45] <Nikie> Marcuy - oh! cool...Thanks a lot :)
[19:45] <zeleftikam> openofficefail: heh love your nick
[19:46] <marcuy> phil_iph, google expat licence
[19:46] <marcuy> *license
[19:46] <ZykoticK9_nothom> openofficefail, if you run "oowriter" in a terminal do you get an error?
[19:46] <North_Italian69> marcuy: i think hat is possible
[19:46] <phil_iph> marcuy:  ? which means open-source ?
[19:46] <marcuy> !hello | kej
[19:47] <openofficefail> Zykotick9_nothom: no, but it doesn't finish starting (no gui)
[19:47] <phil_iph> marcuy:  nothing here : http://www.google.com.tr/search?hl=tr&safe=off&q=%22expat+licence%22&btnG=Ara
[19:47] <marcuy> phil_iph, basically you can see source code from software
[19:47] <marcuy> phil_iph, depends on license type
[19:47] <michael2> hmm.. even the wiki won't help; i just need to know where the screen rotation for a user is stored
[19:47] <phil_iph> marcuy: i know it depends on extension licence. but i asked for this extension : greasemonkey
[19:48] <marcuy> North_Italian69, you can search what packages comes by default and compare with all your installed ones
[19:48] <Pici> phil_iph: What does this have to do with Ubuntu?
[19:48] <openofficefail> Zykotick9_nothom: i can't even startup soffice in terminal, no gui appears
[19:48] <phil_iph> i asked maybe someone knows. many of them use it. Pici
[19:49] <marcuy> phil_iph, may be #greasemonkey be better to find out that
[19:49] <ZykoticK9_nothom> openofficefail, sorry without any output i can't even search for the issue.  I have no idea's man, best of luck.
[19:49] <phil_iph> marcuy: ok. tahank you!
[19:49] <Pici> phil_iph: #ubuntu-offtopic may be able to help explain the difference between licenses as well.
[19:49] <openofficefail> Zykotick9_nothom: i tried with soffice --debug, is there a way to run that that will show me the debug as the flag debug doesn't work
[19:49] <marcuy> !paste | openofficefail
[19:49] <marcuy> openofficefail, you can paste output there
[19:50] <phil_iph> Pici: ok sorry and thank you!
[19:50] <openofficefail> marcuy: there is no output, i am trying to locate debugging output, then i will pastebin
[19:50] <ZykoticK9_nothom> openofficefail, sorry i really can't help ya - good luck
[19:50] <marcuy> openofficefail, you can launch open office from xterminal it will generate output if fails
[19:50] <openofficefail> marcuy: it is not generating any details in terminal when i do oowriter or soffice in terminal, and no gui appears
[19:51] <marcuy> !hello | NEXUS-6
[19:51] <openofficefail> marcuy: is there a metapackage i can try to reinstall for openoffice?
[19:51] <RenatoSilva> does anyone know some gui tool for creating deb packages?
[19:52] <arek> Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services  <----- what is actually the problem here
[19:52] <marcuy> openofficefail, openoffice is present on ubuntu repositories so you can reinstall it
[19:52] <ZykoticK9_nothom> !register | arek
[19:52] <openofficefail> marcuy: do you know the name of the metapackage to reinstall?
[19:53] <almoxarife> is there a way to use (ST) streaming torrent without involving wine?
[19:53] <openofficefail> almoxarife: Geekcast / Peercast packages support p2p streaming
[19:55] <openofficefail> marcuy: after the last update, openoffice went corrupt, apt-get says i have it installed but Ubuntu Software Center says I do not
[19:56] <almoxarife> peercast is a server I assume. I want to specifically have a client for any ST streaming torrent, opensource of course, it is possible to use windows to achieve same
[19:58] <marcuy> !hello | DoubleString
[19:58] <marcuy> openofficefail, what fails?
[19:58] <openofficefail> almoxarife: ok, client software, does http://trial.p2p-next.org/ work?
[19:59] <GuitarShredder> do you know Acoustic MixCraft??
[19:59] <openofficefail> marcuy: all of them fail, I am reinstalling with Ubuntu Software Center and will see if that fixes it
[19:59] <marcuy> openofficefail, ok go on
[19:59] <marcuy> ;)
[20:00] <openofficefail> marcuy: no, it still fails
[20:00] <maheanuu> OK, finally!!!   I am Not at the end of the world, I am over it.....   sure need a guiding light or helping hand if possible

[20:03] <Bilgates> ok
[20:03] <mgolisch> alexisr: what for?
[20:03] <openofficefail> alexisr: oh, then you can run ubuntu-server cd for your architecture and then in terminal sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[20:03] <mgolisch> alexisr: you can use the alternate cd it provides a textbased installer for ubuntu
[20:03] <VCoolio> jon_high9000: engines you can install on karmic too; find your themes in /usr/share/themes or ~/.themes and make a backup
[20:03] <Rob235> hey

[20:04] <arielCo> Hello everyone! I just configured my router with Static DHCP, so that my machine always gets '<IP_ADDRESS>'. BUT, when the interface comes up, dhclient issues a DHCPREQUEST <IP_ADDRESS>, and the router complies. I expected dhclient to send a DISCOVER, because otherwise it won't get the assigned address until I type 'dhclient -r wlan0; dhclient wlan0' to force it.
[20:05] <openofficefail> marcuy: any suggestion on how to debug openoffice?
[20:05] <Arimoto> is Selinux enabled by default on 10.04?  I'm confused because I have the /selinux path, but no /etc/selinux.
[20:05] <Bilgates> arielCo: get an artifacet
[20:05] <Rob235> i ran a system update in ubuntu and for some reason a new kernel was listed but im pretty sure it was the one i already had installed, 24-32 or the other way around, either way, i installed it and decided id upgrade my graphics drivers at the same time, so i installed the nvidia drivers before rebooting and when i rebooted i cant use the graphics drivers, some kernel problem
[20:05] <maheanuu> I am running Ubuntu Studio 10.04 on this laptop  and since I installed it over Lucid I need to re do all my audio and video ripping and conversion stuff and now I am in a hole that just keeps gettin deeper and help is continents away
[20:06] <Rob235> i tried reinstalling the drivers
[20:06] <openofficefail> arielCo: you could always remove the package dhclient?
[20:06] <jon_high9000> VCoolio: there are additional engines and themes that was dropped when jaunty came out to my knowledge. i am not sure.
[20:06] <Rob235> but it keeps booting up in safe graphics mode or whatever it says
[20:06] <Rob235> any ideas?
[20:06] <geirha> kej: Easy to do afterwards though; using imagemagick and a shell one-liner.  for f in ./*.tiff; do convert "$f" "${f%.tiff}.jpg" && rm "$f"; done
[20:06] <mgolisch> arielCo: what did you configure in networkmanager? or do you configure your wlan interface using interfaces?
[20:06] <Bilgates> give me your hotmail password first!
[20:06] <transom324> hello all, need help with my laptop not booting into x when i insert my pcmcia nic card
[20:07] <IdleOne> Bilgates: Please stop that. BTW how are things at ESSPl
[20:07] <Bilgates> transom: give me your credit card number first
[20:07] <transom324> bilgates: funny
[20:07] <arielCo> openofficefail: and hardwire the address?
[20:07] <arielCo> mgolisch: networkmanager, everything automatic
[20:08] <IdleOne> transom324: he's gone.
[20:08] <openofficefail> arielCo: yeah
[20:08] <mgolisch> arielCo: so it doenst read dhcp with static ip there?
[20:08] <VCoolio> jon_high9000: don't know; just copy the themes; if karmic complains about a theme missing, try 'apt-cache search <engine>' or google it; some engines are on gnome-look.org, you can compile those; it's not a reason not to upgrade anyway
[20:09] <arielCo> mgolisch: it asks for <IP_ADDRESS> instead of discovering. The router obliges with DHCPOFFER <IP_ADDRESS>.
[20:09] <jon_high9000> VCoolio: thanks :)

[20:11] <esde`> Hi all, my goal is to setup a Linux PXE Boot Server to run virus scans, and other diagnostics from in my shop. I have Windows XP Pro as my host machine, and Oracle VirtualBox with Ubuntu 9.10 running inside. I would ideally like ot set up a PXE server inside of Ubuntu, that I can boot my clients PC's to and allow me to run a virus scan, or even better, run diagnostics as well. One issue I think I may have however is that in our network there is alread
[20:11] <esde`> y a DHCP server running on our Small Business Server 2003 (Broadcasting a Class B ip, 172.16.17.XXX). Will this make my goal unattainable? If not, how may I work around this? Any help is appreciated.

[20:13] <anavarro1972> Hi everybody!! I'm facing a wired problem mounting an usb disk. It's not allowing case-sensitive folders and files
[20:13] <anavarro1972> can anyone help me?
[20:13] <maheanuu> I am having a real problem with Gnac and Asunder installed in Ubuntu Studio 10.04, I am a Noob...  and know enought to be dangerous, very dangerous to myself and my equipment <grin>
[20:13] <anavarro1972> this is my mount command
[20:13] <anavarro1972> UUID=4A75-97DA  /media/passport vfat    user,noauto,exec,utf8   0       0
[20:13] <anavarro1972> any thought?
[20:14] <Pici> anavarro1972: vfat isn't case-sensitive.
[20:14] <IdleOne> maheanuu: try #ubuntustudio
[20:14] <arielCo> mgolisch: lots of files, and there's a /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.leases which shows one for each interface. I don't think it's a malfunction as such, but a very inconvenient behaviour.

[20:14] <transom324> Hello All I'm having trouble with my laptop using hardy. it won't boot into x when my cisco air-352 nic is inserted. my laptop is a dell inspiron 1100
[20:14] <ubun00b> High. Does anyone know what program vmlinuz is?
[20:14] <anavarro1972> but why ubuntu mount it automatically and it works?
[20:14] <mxe5> I have the latest netbook version of 10.04 on this Dell netbook with a dual boot to Lucid & Windows - What would be the easiest way to change the 1st boot OS to Windows instead of Lucid ? ?
[20:14] <anavarro1972> any idea?
[20:15] <erUSUL> ubun00b: is the kernel
[20:15] <m0gg> ubun00b: Thats ur Kernel
[20:15] <openofficefail> marcuy: any suggestion on how to debug openoffice? even abiword doesn't open docx yet for the ubuntu package of it?
[20:15] <ubun00b> is it a VM on the live pendrive?
[20:15] <anavarro1972> the problem is that ubuntu is mounting on /media/My Passport
[20:15] <mgolisch> it cant work
[20:15] <anavarro1972> with space in the name
[20:15] <arielCo> mxe5: do you want it to boot Windows by default?
[20:15] <m0gg> ubun00b: No its, the "base-system" of your Distributeion
[20:16] <JaSeR> hi, I have the problem below: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/484119/
[20:16] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: and whats so bad about that?
[20:16] <esde`> Thanks for the help guys, ttyl
[20:16] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: you can just change the label to something without a space in it
[20:16] <mxe5> arielCo: Yup - I have to use Windows for my business more then Ubuntu...
[20:16] <anavarro1972> it's very annoying
[20:17] <transom324> i get a could not start the x environment due to some internal error message
[20:17] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: why? it shouldnt matter in nautilus
[20:17] <anavarro1972> How can I do that?
[20:17] <anavarro1972> yes
[20:17] <m0gg> ubun00b: you want an explanation? sent you a dialogue
[20:17] <anavarro1972> but it is in eclipse and other ides
[20:17] <arielCo> mgolisch: what I pasted is the default behaviour.
[20:17] <openofficefail> transom324: you could try installing another manager besides the default gdm, such as xdm with sudo apt-get install xdm and run xdm in terminal after installation
[20:18] <arielCo> mxe5: take a look at /boot/grub/grub.cfg. It's quite visible.
[20:18] <JaSeR> anybody knows what can be wrong?
[20:18] <anavarro1972> The problem isn't the label
[20:18] <anavarro1972> sorry
[20:18] <transom324> openofficefail: i'll give it a try thx
[20:19] <mgolisch> arielCo: it will use request the same ip again if the lease has not run out yet
[20:19] <madbuntu1984> Hi
[20:19] <anavarro1972> is the directory in which it is mounting
[20:19] <madbuntu1984> anyone here able to help write files to a usb raw partition?
[20:19] <mgolisch> arielCo: tried removing the existing lease?
[20:19] <JaSeR> hi, I have the problem below: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/484119/
[20:20] <arielCo> mgolish: yup, that's what I wrote first. I have to do 'dhclient -r; dhclient' to force it to release and discover.
[20:20] <JaSeR> thanks you
[20:20] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: you realise that ubuntu creates a directory as mountpoint thats equal to the filesystem label?
[20:20] <anavarro1972> yes
[20:20] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: so changing the label will change the name of the created directory
[20:20] <anavarro1972> so it will use the label as directory name?
[20:20] <anavarro1972> good

[20:21] <openofficefail> horim: wireless drivers for the ipw2000bg should automatically be installed in ubuntu 10.04, what issues are you experiencing?
[20:22] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: you can change the label with dosfslabel
[20:22] <erez> hmph

[20:24] <anavarro1972> mgolisch: Where I should do that?
[20:24] <JaSeR> Does anybody know what can be wrong? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/484119/
[20:24] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: do what? changing the label? you would run dosfslabel in a terminal
[20:24] <anavarro1972> mgolisch: I mean
[20:25] <mariusz> test
[20:25] <anavarro1972> mgolisch: I dont want to do it any time I mount the device.
[20:25] <anavarro1972> mgolisch: Is that possible?
[20:25] <pyTopher> A wireless network I have been connecting to for over a year is now ignoring my attempts to connect to it,   any Ideas?
[20:25] <arielCo> anavarro1972: it's persistent
[20:25] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: you dont have to, it will change the filesystem label , thats a permanent change
[20:25] <coz_> pyTopher,  this is just on ubuntu ?
[20:26] <pyTopher> yes
[20:26] <coz_> pyTopher,  not sure then... I have noticed many of the same issues here for that paste few weeks
[20:26] <openofficefail> pyTopher: change your mac address with macchanger?
[20:26] <coz_> pyTopher,   have there been updates recently?
[20:26] <m0gg> what wifi adapter do u user?
[20:26] <m0gg> use*
[20:27] <pyTopher> coz_: My system is up to date
[20:27] <coz_> guys  it is way easier if you include the name of the person you are talking to / with
[20:27] <anavarro1972> mgolisch: you mean that it will be mount with that label every time I plug it in on my computer?
[20:27] <pyTopher> m0gg, i don't know
[20:27] <coz_> pyTopher,  I was wondering if any updates recently have caused this issue
[20:28] <pyTopher> coz_: is there a way to find out what updates I've recently added?
[20:28] <coz_> pyTopher,  ah did you update via synatpic package manager?
[20:28] <pyTopher> yes
[20:28] <m0gg> pyTopher: lshw -c network     thats the command which says everything about your network-hardware
[20:29] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: yeah
[20:29] <anavarro1972> mgolisch: Thanks!!!
[20:33] <anavarro1972> mgolisch: Sadly it doesn't happend.
[20:33] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: what did you run?
[20:33] <Tweaky> anyone successful at hooking up a blackberry to ubuntu 10.04
[20:33] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: it would be dosfslabel /dev/something new_lael
[20:34] <anavarro1972> mgolisch: sudo dosfslabel /dev/sdb1 passport
[20:34] <mxe5> arielCo: I found this doing a Google search (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1440635) Worked great ! Thanks much.
[20:34] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: and it still mounts using that old name if you unmount it and then replug it?
[20:35] <anavarro1972> mgolisch: yes
[20:35] <anavarro1972> mgolisch: I will try again
[20:35] <openofficefail> openoffice fails to start, even after purging and reinstalling, any suggestions anyone?
[20:36] <arielCo> anavarro1972: maybe you have to unmount it before changing the label (?)
[20:36] <anavarro1972> arielCo: I did that
[20:36] <arielCo> openofficefail: try 'soffice' in a terminal window. Paste the output in http://pastebin.com and post the URL here
[20:37] <arielCo> anavarro1972: hmm... any funny messages from dosfslabel ?
[20:38] <openofficefail> arielCo: it gives no output upon failing, how do i make it output data in terminal window?
[20:38] <anavarro1972> arielCo: nothing
[20:39] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: nothing is usualy good you can verify the label with dosfslabel /dev/yourdevice
[20:39] <anavarro1972> arielCo: is there any command to see all devices mounted?
[20:39] <mgolisch> anavarro1972: this will read the label and output it
[20:39] <Tetracomm> Hello.
[20:39] <arielCo> mount
[20:39] <anavarro1972> ok guys
[20:39] <Tetracomm> How do I set the time zone in Ubuntu GUI?
[20:39] <jackuk1> yo chatters..lol
[20:40] <arielCo> you can also use 'Disk Utility', aka Palimpsest. Pretty nice.
[20:40] <mneptok> Tetracomm: System > Admin > Time and Date
[20:40] <openofficefail> arielCo: soffice gives no output upon failing, how do i make it output data in terminal window?
[20:41] <Tetracomm> Ty.
[20:42] <pyTopher_> openofficefail: launch from command line?
[20:42] <anavarro1972> mgolisch: If I run sudo dosfslabel /dev/sdb1
[20:42] <arielCo> openofficefail: try mv ~/.openoffice.org/ ~/.openoffice.org.old/
[20:42] <anavarro1972> mgolisch: I get "passport"
[20:42] <openofficefail> arielCo: the purge did that in apt-get purge openoffice*
[20:42] <arielCo> anavarro1972: then it worked. Unplug it and plug it back in.
[20:43] <anavarro1972> mgolisch: but I still the device mounted on the old directory
[20:43] <openofficefail> pyTopher_: openoffice fails in commandline without debugging, i was trying to get debugging to show in terminal
[20:43] <deoxxa> when i boot from the ubuntu 10.04 install disc, pressing a key is supposed to bring up the keyboard selection menu, followed by the short menu asking if i want to boot the live cd or install ubuntu, right?
[20:43] <anavarro1972> arielCo: ok, I will try it again
[20:43] <deoxxa> i mean, pressing a key when the little keyboard and person thing is at the bottom of the screen
[20:43] <arielCo> anavarro1972: I tried it with an SD card in a USB reader and it worked
[20:44] <pyTopher_> openofficefail: oh sorry
[20:44] <guntbert> deoxxa: after pressing a key you should get the language selection, the the main menu
[20:44] <deoxxa> as i thought
[20:44] <deoxxa> stupid laptop
[20:44] <mcl0vin> how do i show a list of user account from shell prompt
[20:45] <openofficefail> mcl0vin: who shows who is logged in to your computer
[20:45] <mcl0vin> i want to give my friend access to my box but only to upload a files for me..he is using windows
[20:45] <mcl0vin> so scp is not an option for him
[20:45] <deoxxa> winscp
[20:45] <deoxxa> it sure is
[20:45] <anavarro1972> arielCo: I have done it
[20:45] <anavarro1972> arielCo: but still get the same issue
[20:45] <arielCo> mcl0vin: 2. he could use a windows scp client. Google 'PuTTY sftp'
[20:45] <random222> Hi everyone, I have a remote machine running ubuntu - all I have is terminal access to this machine and x-windows is known to work. How do I view the remote desktop from my local machine (also running ubuntu)?
[20:46] <anavarro1972> arielCo: very wired
[20:46] <mcl0vin> arielCo: ok, but how do i creat and account for him
[20:46] <RyanP> How can I move an LDAP database from one server to another?
[20:46] <arielCo> anavarro1972: odd, lemme grep around a bit
[20:46] <mcl0vin> ** i mean i can do adduser blah blah blah , but how do i make sure that he only have access to upload
[20:47] <anavarro1972> arielCo: yeah, thanks
[20:47] <arielCo> mcl0vin: in traditional Unix filesystems, I don't think you can
[20:47] <mcl0vin> arielCo: ? how come
[20:48] <sirje> hi, would like to get some guidance about ubuntu display settings. i'm new user and my native language is not englis so plz dont hit me hard :)
[20:48] <arielCo> mcl0vin: permissions are read, write, execute/chdir
[20:49] <arielCo> mcl0vin: write is just that, whether to create, rename or erase
[20:49] <mgolisch> delete is the same as write
[20:49] <Tibman> hello, has anyone in here been able to install the latest ATI drivers from the ATI website?
[20:49] <mcl0vin> arielCo: ok, so how do i know what permisions he got
[20:49] <guntbert> sirje: nobody will hit you, just ask your questions (all in one line if possible)
[20:49] <sirje> so the situation is like this: i have ubuntu 10.04 installed on my laptop Dell Vostro 1015 with integrated intel graphics card
[20:49] <arielCo> sirje: what's your graphic card?
[20:49] <Tibman> my gcard is 5770
[20:49] <arielCo> mcl0vin: by default he can only write to his home directory and a few others
[20:50] <sirje> and the picture displayed by screen is with bad quality
[20:50] <mcl0vin> arielCo: how do i know what are the defaults
[20:50] <sirje> how can i change it better?
[20:51] <sirje> resolution is ok, but colors are not displayed very well
[20:51] <arielCo> mcl0vin: basically, /var/tmp, /var/ and most FAT/NTFS drives have public permissions
[20:52] <arielCo> mcl0vin: sorry, scratch the "FAT/NTFS drives" part
[20:53] <mgolisch> openssh supports chrooting sftp clients
[20:53] <arielCo> mgolisch: nice! :)
[20:54] <Tibman> never mind, i got it
[20:54] <urthmover> I have a problem that did not exist in 9.10 but now exists in 10.04.  I use a laptop with an external monitor.  I like to leave the laptop closed and use the ext monitor along with ext keyboard/mouse.  The problem is this...the power management does not shutoff the display during idle.  It does however shutoff the display when idle if the laptop is open.  Where do I begin to troubleshoot this?
[20:55] <arielCo> !bug 41994
[20:56] <sirje> any info about my problem with laptop display?
[20:56] <arielCo> sirje... kinda busy, will try to help you when I get a chance
[20:56] <arielCo> urthmover: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/41994
[20:56] <sirje> ok, cool
[20:56] <urthmover> arielCo: awesome  I'll start looking at that now  thanks
[20:58] <openofficefail> openoffice fails to start, even after purging and reinstalling, any suggestions anyone?
[20:59] <urthmover> arielCo: that one is not really what is happening for me....the problem I face is that with the laptop closed  my monitor does not enter powersave when I lock or let my computer go idle
[20:59] <Aimee> Hi. I'm currently trying to access my desktop (10.04 32bit) from my laptop (10.04 64bit) over a wired network. the connection is successful and i can see an initial screen (which is my main desktop) but when I click on anything I don't see any changes.
[20:59] <kiffer> how does i make >
[21:00] <kiffer> ?
[21:00] <openofficefail> Aimee: are you connecting through vnc?
[21:00] <Aimee> Yeah, through the Remote Desktop Viewer
[21:00] <Aimee> erm
[21:00] <openofficefail> Aimee: have you tried a vnc server and client through tightvnc?
[21:00] <Aimee> That's what I'm USING to connect
[21:00] <Aimee> Hmm
[21:00] <hiku> !ask > kiffer
[21:01] <rrndman> why is mouse in ubuntu so imprecise? can I make it behave more windows-like? for example, in windows I can move mouse perfectly horizontally and vertically, while in ubuntu I can't
[21:01] <Aimee> rrndman, does it move really fast or erratically all over the screen?
[21:02] <duffydack> rrndman, play around with the accel and sensitivity
[21:02] <Aimee> Yeah
[21:02] <DJAshnar> the ubunutu-kernel channel is oddly quiet.  Aimee, did you kill all the people in that room?
[21:02] <DJAshnar> un kill em!
[21:02] <Aimee> System -> Preferences and the controls you're looking for is under the General tab
[21:03] <rrndman> Aimee, no, it's just that it doesn't feel right, it's hard to explain... it's just very awkward and uncomfortable, I have difficulties aiming the right window controls or selecting text
[21:03] <Anonissimus> is there a way I can make my machine reboot and force a boot from the cd drive?
[21:03] <Aimee> rrndman: Weird
[21:03] <Aimee> Anonissimus, well
[21:03] <rrndman> duffydack, I tried, but it still doesn't work as I want it to
[21:03]  * duffydack thinks its a problem between the chair and keyboard
[21:03] <arielCo> openofficefail: what if you run /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin ?
[21:03] <Wicked> hello all. im using ufw and ipv6. On some irc servers if i connect using ipv6....the irc server probes some ports and ufw blocks them...but if i connect to the same irc network using ipv4...i get probed..but ufw does not block them.
[21:03] <Aimee> I don't think you can tell the machine what to boot from from the OS, but if you reboot then (on most computers) hit a button like F12
[21:03] <Wicked> any ideas what i could do
[21:04] <duffydack> I up the accel a little and its perfectly fine for me
[21:04] <Aimee> And select the boot device from there (@ Anonissimus )
[21:04] <openofficefail> arielCo: same thing, no debug data in terminal
[21:04] <arielCo> openofficefail: pgrep soffice.bin ?
[21:04] <Aimee> Anyhow
[21:04] <Anonissimus> Aimee: problem is this is a virtual machine
[21:04] <Aimee> OH
[21:04] <Anonissimus> so I dont get the boot menu
[21:04] <Aimee> What software are you using
[21:04] <Anonissimus> vmware
[21:04] <openofficefail> arielCo: no data from that command either in terminal
[21:04] <Aimee> Ah
[21:05] <Aimee> Anonissimus, I think you can do it uh
[21:05] <Aimee> Stop your VM, open up the settings, and change it there
[21:05] <Aimee> I don't think you can force a reboot to a different device though
[21:05] <Anonissimus> Aimee: I am pretty sure I can, but I cant find it otherwise I wouldnt ask
[21:05] <Aimee> Oh
[21:05] <Aimee> The only way I know how to do it in VMWare is to change your VM settings
[21:05] <CyberGabber> rrndman: Did you just installed linux, and using it (the mouse) for first time? Is it USB-mouse? Try reboot or place mouse on other usb-connector
[21:06] <Vindice> In any terminal (virtual, xterm, gnome-terminal), typing M-1 (i.e. ALT + 1), the line of text is displayed after "(arg: 1)". It's the same for other numbers too. What does this mean? Is it a standard emacs key-binding?
[21:06] <Vindice> Please let me know if I haven't explained myself well there
[21:06] <Anonissimus> Aimee: found I can get into the boot menu by checking a box
[21:06] <arielCo> openofficefail: openoffice is [in]famous for profile locking issues. Did you double-check that apt-get purge deleted ~/.openoffice.org ?
[21:06] <Aimee> Oh
[21:06] <Anonissimus> thanks for helping me out
[21:06] <Aimee> Cool
[21:06] <Aimee> No problem Anonissimus
[21:06] <kiffer> how does i make ?
[21:06] <arielCo> openofficefail: also /etc/openoffice.org
[21:06] <tonytr> is this on?
[21:07] <arielCo> openofficefail: also /etc/openoffice
[21:07] <openofficefail> arielCo: when apt-get purge is run, it runs dpkg --purge, which deletes user profile data in both locations, i'll try manually and reinstall
[21:07] <Hopsa> Are there any devel folks that wants to test a possible bug in dhcpd with me on Lucid ? / Invalid read of size 4 segfault..
[21:07] <arielCo> !ask > tonytr
[21:07] <Aimee> Ok, so, openofficefail, do you have a preference of server package I should install
[21:07] <Aimee> for VNC
[21:07] <openofficefail> Aimee: i think tightvnc is the most user-friendly
[21:08] <tonytr> how does one see ubottu's private message?
[21:08] <Aimee> tonytr: It should be right there
[21:08] <arielCo> tonytr: you should have another tab
[21:08] <hiku> tonytr: what irc client are you using?
[21:08] <Aimee> He's using qweb
[21:08] <arielCo> tonytr: anyway, the message was 'just ask'
[21:08] <tonytr> sorry
[21:08] <xangua> tonytr: if yo uare using gnome-xchat better install xchat
[21:08] <tonytr> gotcha
[21:08] <tonytr> newbe
[21:09] <Aimee> xangua: Ew, gnome-xchat
[21:09] <Aimee> I actually installed that once by mistake... Eh
[21:09] <littlepenguin> hi i need some assistance with shell scripting...i want to start 2 programs simultaniously..i tried with app1 && app2 but app2 only starts when app1 is closed
[21:09] <arielCo> littlepenguin: app1 & app2
[21:09] <tonytr> installing ubuntu 10.0.4 on SATA DVD drive. Install works, but get errors that end install.
[21:10] <arielCo> littlepenguin: the & pertains to the 'app1' command, telling the shell to run it in "background mode"
[21:10] <arielCo> littlepenguin: app1 && app2 means "run app1, then if it exits successfully run app2". Very different.
[21:12] <littlepenguin> thanks arielCo
[21:12] <littlepenguin> have confused some things..
[21:13] <arielCo> littlepenguin: go read http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/
[21:14] <littlepenguin> very nice..but this will take some days to get clearly through ;D have saved it..
[21:14] <paca-vaca> Hi everyone. Tell me please, I have an error Method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/htt not found, what's a is this ?
[21:15] <arielCo> littlepenguin: it's a fully-featured programming language. That always takes time.
[21:15] <tynot> getting installation errors after 10.0.4 downloaded and burnt onto CD. The drives are all SATA. 8 TB total. please help.
[21:15] <libihero> i need help editing a gtk theme, anyone know how to do it?
[21:16] <aeon-ltd> libihero: sudo (editor of choice) name of gtk config and path
[21:16] <paca-vaca> ...sorry - this error displayed when I type sudo apt-get update
[21:16] <duffydack> tynot,  did you md5sum the iso
[21:16] <libihero> @aeon-ltd i know how to open the file, but i don't know how to edit the code
[21:17] <aeon-ltd> libihero: in the gtkrc file the options are pretty much self explanetary
[21:17] <tynot> duffydack, good question. what might that be?
[21:17] <aeon-ltd> libihero: what variable are you having trouble with?
[21:17] <duffydack> !md5sum | tynot
[21:17] <libihero> i'm trying to make it so the dropdown menu color is black
[21:18] <libihero> i was able to edit the color
[21:18] <libihero> but now the panel text is black
[21:18] <tynot> yeah, the install runs fine. looks like everything's goin' groovy and then then message at the end. yeah, guess we should MD5?
[21:18] <libihero> the dropdown menu bg color black, sorry
[21:18] <duffydack> tynot,  yes
[21:19] <duffydack> tynot, what message is it
[21:19] <libihero> hold on lemme type out everything
[21:19] <aeon-ltd> libihero: random speculation here, but thats the beauty of gtkrc's you can edit save and reload, and keep trying- changing #colors and experimenting, all in all this is the very basics of hacking and modding
[21:19] <Aimee> Hey there, me again. Wanted to ask a different question as well
[21:19] <Aimee> This laptop is an Acer Aspire 5810TZ
[21:19] <libihero> I want to make the background color for the dropdown menu's light while their text stay black.  the theme i'm using, impression, has the menu as black and the text as white.  i was able to edit the theme and make the menu how i wanted it.  however, i cant edit the dropdown menu text color without editing the panel text color
[21:20] <Aimee> The DVD drive on it is a TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-U633A, and I can't get it to work
[21:20] <arielCo> paca-vaca: maybe your apt package is damaged. Get it from http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/apt and install it with 'sudo dpkg -I apt*.deb'
[21:20] <libihero> i want to make the panel text color white, while making the dropdown menu from the panel text black
[21:20] <duffydack> Aimee, define 'get it to work'
[21:20] <aeon-ltd> libihero: to keep conisistencies some gtk libraries do that
[21:20] <Aimee> duffydack: In other words, I insert the DVD, it does not come up on screen
[21:20] <Aimee> I've tried mounting manually
[21:21] <tynot> duffydack, "a component of the installation failed," or something along those lines. then, when I tried to setup users and passwords, that failed as well. sound like MD5?
[21:21] <Aimee> the only way i've gotten anything to show up is to boot up with the dvd in the drive already
[21:21] <libihero> @aeon-ltd is there a way to work around it?
[21:21] <duffydack> Aimee, ah.. ive heard of that workaround before... hangon...
[21:21] <Aimee> duffydack: And even then it doesn't work
[21:21] <duffydack> tynot,  not sure.  md5 check it anyway
[21:21] <Aimee> :p
[21:21] <Aimee> Actually, if you'll hold on for a moment
[21:22] <Aimee> brb
[21:22] <arielCo> sirje: did you check your current resolution? It should match the LCD's native (physical) one
[21:22] <pieces> I have a blue tooth dongle that was working last night but now when I go to use it it says there is no bluethooth device recognized any help please
