[20:03] <Citizenwarrior> so get this, I spend most of the morning on here with everyone trying to figure out why my NIC stopped working, WE determent that it just died... So $29.99 latter I have a new NIC, now because my old NIC is integrated can't remove it so i just drop in my new card and boot the box... BINGO now all three of my NICs show up???   BUT!!!! now the system is all buggy, it takes forever for desktop to load, and when it does lots of stuf
[20:03] <Citizenwarrior> f isn't right...   Any ideas?
[20:04] <Delemas> I've got a broken package installed on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Can anyone tell me the equivalent of a rpm -e --noscripts? dpkg --purge --force-all packagename isn't doing the trick...
[20:04] <moes> Logan_WP, This command only list my mouse and keyboard
[20:04] <MrMintanet> izinucs, I went to the website that produces this PPA, but I can not figure out how the heck to get it to actually install.  The site is extremely cryptic for a novice user...
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> ymonir: i replaced /usr/bin/youtube-dl  with https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/raw/2010.12.09/youtube-dl
[20:04] <mickster04> Citizenwarrior: try and disable the inbuilt one in bios
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> michaelxq: depends what file you have downloaded?
[20:05] <Logan_WP> moes: lspci
[20:05] <Logan_WP> moes: I think I misunderstood your question
[20:05] <michaelxq> ActionParsnip, i've downloaded the latest version lbrc 0.6.4.tar.gz
[20:06] <aeon-ltd> its not really a problem besides it clogging up one of my VTs, but why is vdpau always trying to call the nvidia driver whilst running flash?
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> michaelxq: ok then extract the file with:  tar zxvf ./lbrc-0.6.4.tar.gz     (replace the filenme if its wrong)
[20:07] <moes> Logan_WP, That list the controllers I want to see thecd/dvd etc
[20:08] <MrMintanet> izinucs, I went to the website that produces this PPA, but I can not figure out how the heck to get it to actually install.  The site is extremely cryptic for a novice user...
[20:08] <Citizenwarrior> mickster04 i could but my OLD NIC is working just fine now, it is GNOME that is crazy.... errors like "The panel encountered a problem while loading 'OAFIID:GNOME_IndicatorApplet'." and "The panel encountered a problem while loading ;OAFIID:GNOME_FastUserSwitchApplet'."
[20:08] <michaelxq> ActionParsnip, done it...no what?
[20:09] <mickster04> Citizenwarrior: so you have taken the new one out?
[20:09] <Citizenwarrior> mickster04 I'm not at high speed as some in here on this stuff but that doesn't sound like a NIC or Hardware of any type problem to me
[20:09] <Citizenwarrior> mickster04    nope, thinking about it though
[20:09] <detrate> any idea why the behavior of rename in nautilus has changed? In order to rename, without selecting the file extension, you now must be in an "icon view"
[20:09] <ActionParsnip> michaelxq: in the folder you will see files, there will be a readme file
[20:10] <xapel> Is there a ppa for the new Unity for 10.10?
[20:10] <leshaste> how do I tell if I am running 32 bit of 64 bit ubuntu?
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> leshaste: uname -m
[20:10] <serialize> uname -a
[20:10] <serialize> -m it is lol
[20:10] <mickster04> Citizenwarrior: well my thinking is that one is broken, and that the ia is getting confused between the working one an the borken one?
[20:10] <bastidraZor> detrate: you're too lazy to type 4 more characters?
[20:10] <detrate> https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627110
[20:10] <michaelxq> ActionParsnip, i've read it but it doesn't work
[20:10] <detrate> bastidraZor: don't be dumb, thanks
[20:11] <histo> detrate: what about hitting f2
[20:11] <detrate> yes
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> xapel: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/01/unity-2d-gets-a-ppa/
[20:11] <detrate> it's a bug, I just found the report
[20:11] <nullset1> having a conky problem.  wifi info not displayed.  seems to be permissions problem as can only get essid (example) via iwconfig if use sudo.  suggestions?
[20:11] <Citizenwarrior> mickster04 even though the old one is the only one with a cable in it right now and it is working just fine?
[20:11] <leshaste> ActionParsnip: Linux lesshaste-desktop 2.6.32-28-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jan 10 21:21:01 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux
[20:11] <leshaste> looks uninformative to me
[20:11] <xapel> ActionParsnip: thanx
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> michaelxq: thats all I know dude, read and study what  you have and you can move from there
[20:11] <mickster04> Citizenwarrior: oh, how odd, well remove the new one and restart?
[20:11] <histo> nullset1: add your user to the network group maybe?
[20:11] <detrate> bastidraZor: to elaborate, I'm not going to RETYPE 4 existing characters
[20:11] <serialize> 32bit
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> leshaste: i686 == 32bit    x86_64 == 64bit
[20:11] <canthus13> how would I add an IP address to an interface via command line? Specifically, a wireless interface that is controlled by network manager.
[20:11] <nullset1> histo: worth a try
[20:12] <histo> nullset1: I think you should be already but I could be wrong.
[20:12] <leshaste> ActionParsnip: oh! I seem to be running the wrong version :(
[20:12] <canthus13> (or just change the IP address altogether and restart the interface.
[20:12] <Citizenwarrior> mickster04, ok will do, hang on just a sec... have to power down from terminal due to those applets not loading my GNOME right....
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> leshaste: then you will need a reinstall to change arch
[20:12] <michaelxq> ActionParsnip, ok thank you
[20:13] <leshaste> ActionParsnip: hang on.. I don't see i686 or x86_64 in that line
[20:13] <leshaste> oh I see
[20:13] <leshaste> my mistake :(
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> leshaste:  Jan 10 21:21:01 UTC 2011 _i686_ GNU/Linux
[20:14] <leshaste> ActionParsnip: thanks
[20:25] <Citizenwarrior> mickster04, ok new NIC out system boots and loads as it should, and old NIC doesn't work at all, back to original problem
[20:25] <mickster04> Citizenwarrior: i think you should install the new nic, disable the old one in bios, see what happens
[20:25] <Delemas> Nevermind I managed to bypass the script...
[20:25] <Citizenwarrior> mickster04, no GNOME problems at all, smooth as a babies ass, however eth0 and eth1 aren't anywhere to be found
[20:25] <serialize> are the drivers installed?
[20:25] <mickster04> Citizenwarrior: yeah, i think the new one was doing something for the OS, not sure what, but try without the old one enabled
[20:25] <Citizenwarrior> mickster04, i guess it can't hurt???  brb
[20:25] <mickster04> yeah
[20:25] <serialize> how busy does this channel get?  ive been on for about a month now and i have seen it grow to 1600+

[20:25] <serialize> does anyone know if mint 11 will be using gnome or unity?
[20:25] <jrib> !mintsupport | serialize

[20:25] <serialize> i did but not many peeps there
[20:25] <Bizzeh> hi, if i create a chroot environment within my main environment, and then run sshd on a non-standard port within that chroot, but then exit the chroot... will any clients connecting to the non-standard port sshd still be chrooted?
[20:25] <DP_Prophet> afaik it will be gnome
[20:25] <jrib> serialize: that's the right place for your question, be patient
[20:26] <serialize> :)
[20:26] <psusi> Bizzeh: yes
[20:26] <serialize> what do you guys think of unity ?
[20:26] <histo> Bizzeh: I would think the clients would get terminated
[20:26] <DP_Prophet> looks promising
[20:26] <histo> Bizzeh: but maybe not
[20:26] <jrib> serialize: #ubuntu-offtopic for non-support chat please
[20:26] <DP_Prophet> looking forward to try it
[20:26] <serialize> ah ok, thank you
[20:26] <rcmaehl> Ummm? <guest_62> i unplugged my kettle lead, and when i put it back in my keyboard and mouse will not work? i am running linux <- this means?
[20:26] <wolfric> is sudoreplay a feature of sudo or was it a command simply left out of the sudo package.
[20:26] <serialize> does sudo give full access to the system?
[20:26] <mickster04> !sudo
[20:26] <serialize> just that once you know my login password sudo would make my system less secure right?
[20:26] <guntbert> serialize: as would knowing the root password
[20:26] <Bizzeh> just gives full access to the app you run it with
[20:27] <njero> I asked yesterday, but I am having a problem locking onto channels using dvbstream. It works with mplayer... anyone seen something similar. I can share the output if anyone knows
[20:28] <Citizenwarrior> mickster04, ok I'm in BIOS and as crazy as it may sound I don't see anything about LAN or NIC or Eithernet... anywhere but the one option to enable boot from LAN... thoughts?
[20:28] <serialize> agreed, just wondered if sudo was a subset of superuser privileges
[20:28] <rcmaehl> lol floodbot troubles?
[20:28] <mickster04> Citizenwarrior: there should be some part about onboard devices
[20:28] <serialize> thanks for clearing that up for me :)
[20:28] <njero> serialize: in general it is not a subset, but the way permissions in sudo are granted you can make it a subset
[20:28] <Citizenwarrior> mickster04, you would think
[20:28] <rcmaehl> !kettle
[20:28] <rcmaehl> serialize: yep
[20:28] <serialize> yeah i was reading about that last night
[20:28] <mickster04> Citizenwarrior: hum....well go thru, usually a bios lets you turn off on baord audio etc too....maybe update your bios?
[20:28] <canthus13> blargh.
[20:29] <njin> hello, following full circle tutorial,   # !/usr/bin/env python   print  'Hello. I am a python program.'  .'ve got Warning: unknown mime-type for "Hello. I am a python program." -- using "application/octet-stream"
[20:29] <njin> Error: no such file "Hello. I am a python program.". what's wrong ?
[20:29] <sogeking99> hey guys i got my ubuntu usb working and am on ubuntu 10.10 now on my asus laptop(through live usb) but i have no sound
[20:29] <Pici> njin: Those two things need to be on different lines.
[20:29] <serialize> you have to type the script name before python binary
[20:29] <njero> serialize: additionally you can grant sudo abilities to other users, in which case they would not need access to your password. But you would need su access to grant those privileges initially
[20:30] <njin> Pici, they are on different lines
[20:30] <serialize> use """ multi line comment """
[20:30] <iflema> serialize: sudo can be configured for different users giving them access to different things instead of giving away one root password that does all
[20:30] <Pici> njin: How are you trying to execute the program?
[20:30] <guntbert> njero: s/su /sudo /
[20:30] <njin> Pici ./
[20:31] <njero> guntbert: right, su or sudo...
[20:31] <Citizenwarrior> mickster04, nope none of that, you know this is the most useless BIOS screen I have ever gone through... nothing here at all
[20:31] <serialize> python yourscriptname.py yourparamters go here
[20:31] <mickster04> Citizenwarrior: sorry for you, alls i can suggest is that you investigate if there is an update available for it....
[20:31] <Pici> serialize: Thats really related to what njin is trying to do.
[20:31] <serialize> ah
[20:31] <Pici> njin: And the file is set as executable?
[20:31] <Citizenwarrior> mickster04, I guess I can let it boot with the new NIC and then run every update I can find...
[20:31] <guntbert> njero: as the root account is disabled bx default noone has su access
[20:32] <mickster04> Citizenwarrior: yeah i guess
[20:32] <Citizenwarrior> mickster04, good minds on same track.... lol
[20:32] <serialize> even if you sudo su and enter your password?
[20:32] <njin> Pici, yes executable
[20:32] <sogeking99> any one know how i might fix my sound issues?
[20:32] <njero> guntbert: ah, I must be thinking of debian on that, thanks
[20:32] <Logan_WP> !sound | sogeking99
[20:32] <BiPolah> Could anyone help me set up a script to automatically connect to a server via rdesktop?
[20:32] <Pici> njin: Does it run if you do: python yourscriptname
[20:33] <guntbert> serialize: don't use sudo su , use sudo -i instead
[20:38] <dandaman> middle scrolling in chrome...does it exist?
[20:39] <njin> looking
[20:39] <ohsix> sudo -s ftw
[20:39] <njin> Pici, ok now it works
[20:39] <njin> with ./ not work
[20:39] <Pici> njin: Is the #!/usr/bin/env python   on the first line of the file?
[20:39] <kv102t> game hedgewars dosn't load into game. But does say in game...
[20:39] <kv102t> any idea's?
[20:39] <serialize> thanks for that guntbert
[20:39] <njin> pici, yes # !/usr/bin/env python

[20:58] <Sammi16> Chogydan, Yes, i see text, but it goes away too fast to read it.
[21:00] <littlepenguin> Osmodivs: have you tried reseting blender (rename .blender in profilepath)?
[21:00] <brontoeee> ace, same thing

[21:00] <SleazyCriss> Hy guys, I've a problem with an amd radeon HD 6450, the open source driver won't load and the closed catalyst driver says that my card isn't supported by the driver what should I do?
[21:01] <Osmodivs> littlepenguin, Reset Blender!? hm... The thing is, I get the same message trying to open Ubuntu's blender and a build I got from GraphicAll.org
[21:01] <ikonia> SleazyCriss: does it say the open source driver should support it
[21:02] <littlepenguin> Osmodivs: ah with that builds sometimes problems occur..i also use them but you need to look in the build if something needs to be done
[21:03] <SleazyCriss> no it doesn't, that is the reason why I switched to the closed driver  but also that one  doesn't seems to work
[21:03] <Osmodivs> littlepenguin,  What about Ubuntu's Blender? they are supposed to be stable, I think it has to do something about my GPU, but I dont know how to fix it
[21:04] <littlepenguin> Osmodivs: have you tried other builds?
[21:04] <littlepenguin> but you should always ecure your .blender folder
[21:04] <Osmodivs> littlepenguin, I am using nVidia's drivers, and sometimes they dont match Linux Kernels
[21:04] <ikonia> SleazyCriss: ok, so then your card may not be supported
[21:05] <Osmodivs> littlepenguin,  Yeah, even older ones, but for some reason every 3d app does not work today and get the same terminal output
[21:05] <gummib> disconnect
[21:06] <Starminn> Massive fail.
[21:06] <Starminn> :)
[21:06] <mickster04> ouch
[21:06] <SleazyCriss> well but that is strange because on windows the catalyst   11.2 driver support  my card
[21:07] <Osmodivs> It's like a quitting overflow app made with a mix of Python & C++ with a touch of Ruby

[21:10] <jrib> Col_Ingus: do you have an ubuntu support question?
[21:10] <KrisDouglas> I have a rather unusual request for some information. I was wondering if it would be possible to bond 2 3G modems through ubuntu?

[21:10] <Osmodivs> !diaper COl_Ingus
[21:11] <Citizenwarrior> ubuntu 64 the .iso is something something 'amd64' does that denote that it is AMD processors only and not any intel?

[21:11] <Col_Ingus> lollerskates
[21:11] <Logan_WP> !ot | Col_Ingus
[21:11] <Starminn> Citizenwarrior: AMD64 = 64-bit whether it's Intel or not.

[21:13] <Roman34> Hi  ... I have Maverick 10.10 and 2.36.35-27. Sound was always working OK before and since let's say december I have an issue with sound. It goes mute automatically. I uncheck mute and put sound level up, it works for a minute and then goes back to mute. It's mute when I start a session... Sounds always work ok with headphones plugged. Can somebody help me out? Thanks in advance
[21:13] <sevenseeker> howdy, I've been having problems with audio on my Dell Studio 1747 since 9.10 (I rebuild each release, fyi).  Ironically, I started out with no sound through headphones only (iow, built in speakers worked) then added some conf lines to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf and that worked...
[21:13] <histo> Roman34: try adjusting the level and sudo alsactl store in a terminal
[21:13] <jrib> uplinked: here: http://www.debianadmin.com/howto-use-ssh-local-and-remote-port-forwarding.html
[21:14] <sevenseeker> with 10.10 it is the opposite (headphones work but no built in speakers).  I added the same and then later some other lines after googling for days, but nothing changed... relevant info next
[21:14] <soreau> ! netsplit | WB (-
[21:14] <sevenseeker> /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf http://paste.pocoo.org/show/342993/
[21:14] <sevenseeker> snd card info via lspci -vvv http://paste.pocoo.org/show/342995/
[21:14] <insanity99> anyone?
[21:14] <Citizenwarrior> With that then does anyone no if running Ubuntu 64bit as my base system, then running Oracle VirtualBox, what architecture VB is going to present to guest OSs?
[21:14] <Logan_WP> !please | insanity99
[21:15] <sevenseeker> only lines I found in dmesg http://paste.pocoo.org/show/342996/
[21:15] <Citizenwarrior> my apologizes for the typo
[21:15] <insanity99> sorry
[21:16] <joaopinto> Citizenwarrior, using a 64  bits host you can run both 32 and 64 bits VMs
[21:16] <Osmodivs> Does anyone here knows a good preogram for overclocking a CPU in Ubuntu?
[21:16] <brontoeee> Citizenwarrior, i dont recall any problems with 64 bit ubuntu host and various vms
[21:16] <g_0_0> !sound
[21:16] <Citizenwarrior> great, thanks... I am sure I will be back let me relay that info
[21:17] <brontoeee> Citizenwarrior, you should check the gpu and audio card first really, that can problems you later on
[21:17] <sh4g0> exit
[21:17] <insanity99> what is 'swap' listed as in mount point select?
[21:17] <Roman34> histo I adjusted level and then sudo alsactl store but after one minute came back to mute
[21:18] <brontoeee> insanity99, you can certainly dedicate a partition to swap via installer, so whats your question?
[21:19] <Citizenwarrior> brontoeee, I know I have had issues in the past, we are going through the option right now.... when i hit a wall I will post the question here if google doesn't save the day
[21:19] <histo> Roman34: Do you have a keybound for volume down that is stuck or something?
[21:20] <insanity99> well, i have made a / partition and allowed 20gb(is this enough?) now i need to make a swap partition which should be 2gb i believe(half my ram). how do i designate the partition as swap?
[21:20] <lucas> Hi! I have a problem when going to Help-Contents. There are many windows popping up and I can't stop it. Running ubuntu Maverick 64 bit
[21:20] <brontoeee> Citizenwarrior, also, some nvidia cards offers nice vdpau decoding support, so if you are interested in hd video with 3% cpu usage, i'd check that as well
[21:21] <tsimpson> insanity99: choose the "swap" type
[21:21] <Roman34> histo: no... everything is OK with headphones. If I pulse the mute key on keyboard it changes and after 1 minute it goes mute again
[21:21] <spidla> insanity99, 20gb is ok for root partition of ubuntu installation
[21:22] <brontoeee> insanity99, http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HLTTALqHF4Q/TGY-DZv24LI/AAAAAAAAIxQ/h7T5zKZK-c4/s640/ubuntu-net.install.partition.swap.jpg
[21:22] <insanity99> ok thanks guys
[21:22] <spidla> insanity99, and I think swap partition should be at least as big as your RAM
[21:22] <Citizenwarrior> brontoeee, if you don't mind me picking your brain, given I haven't done my own homework and I normally try not to waste peoples time with un-researched questions... But could you recommended kind of the top of the line of linux supported video and sound cards
[21:23] <Datz> hi, I'm wondering what happens to ideas on ubuntu brainstorm after a month and they dissapear.
[21:23] <linxeh> Citizenwarrior: do you want a card with decent free drivers or not ?
[21:23] <maco> Datz: disappear?
[21:23] <Roman34> I went in a ubuntu forum and they told me to had "options snd-card-0 enable=1 index=0 model=basic " + "options snd-hda-intel enable=1 index=0 model=basic" at the end of alsa-base.conf
[21:23] <lucas> Hi! I have a problem when going to Help-Contents of a program. There are many windows popping up and I can't stop it. Running ubuntu Maverick 64 bit
[21:23] <Datz> maco: I believe they are only held on ubuntu brainstorm for amonth
[21:23] <mickster04> Datz: they are gone? what more is expected to happen?
[21:23] <Roman34> but didn't help
[21:23] <histo> Roman34: no idea
[21:23] <maco> Datz: if ideas are disappearing, youve found a bug in the software
[21:24] <littlepenguin> canonical list of hardware http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog
[21:24] <Datz> mickster04: maco well I'll check but I think an idea is gone
[21:24] <Roman34> thanks histo.... it looks like a demon is running every minute and changes the status.... would that be possible?
[21:25] <Citizenwarrior> linxeh, if GREAT linux drivers for a GREAT card cost a little money but work without me investing tons of hours hacking the system together then I am willing to bite the bullet, but I like open and free for stuff like that
[21:25] <insanity99> does this look ok? kinda nervous first time trying http://img153.imageshack.us/i/screenshotmum.png/
[21:25] <linxeh> Citizenwarrior: by free I mean libre/free/oss, not free as in beer
[21:25] <Jonii> Hey, I downloaded a tool called gpart ( http://www.brzitwa.de/mb/gpart/index.html ) to fix my partition table, and I'm trying to run it from livecd ubuntu
[21:26] <Jonii> I am not succeeding
[21:26] <brontoeee> Citizenwarrior, how about using dell support, let them install ubuntu 10.10, check the drivers, check the sound, check the vdpau support, otherwise they are wasting your time anyway.
[21:26] <maco> Datz: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/24575/ april 2010
[21:26] <mickster04> Jonii: gparted is included by default
[21:26] <Starminn> insanity99: Yeah, looks alright to me.
[21:26] <maco> Datz: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/25197/ june 2010
[21:26] <Jonii> I downloaded the file, opened terminal, cd'd my path to where the file is, and then tried to run "gpart /dev/sda" but it failed
[21:27] <Jonii> mickster04, gpart, not gparted
[21:27] <Starminn> mickster04: Only on the LiveCD. Not on the full install.
[21:27] <Citizenwarrior> brontoeee just have a chat session up with dell, thats a no go, they won't do stuff like that for ubuntu on the R54oo system I am looking at
[21:27] <spidla> Jonii, if you are trying to rescue your system from livecd , try SystemRescueCD
[21:27] <insanity99> thanks
[21:27] <Jonii> spidla, nope, I'm not
[21:27] <brontoeee> Citizenwarrior, and her name is Michele? ok then, as you wish :)
[21:28] <Citizenwarrior> brontoeee that is unless you know of a part of dell support that even dell support doesn't know about
[21:28] <mickster04> Jonii: Starminn well jonii is using a live cd? so use gpparted instead?>
[21:28] <Jonii> spidla, my Windows works just about as fine as I can expect it to work, and I'm trying to install linux
[21:28] <Starminn> mickster04: Aha! Makes sense now. ;)
[21:28] <erUSUL> Jonii: sudo apt-get install gpart
[21:28] <Citizenwarrior> brontoeee sorry don't get the joke
[21:28] <spidla> Jonii, sorry then, my mistake
[21:28] <erUSUL> Jonii: an alternative to gpart is testdisk « sudo apt-get install testdisk »
[21:28] <Jonii> But, since partition table is broken, I'm having difficult time trying to not wipe out my windows while installing ubuntu. Ubuntu installer thinks my entire disk is unallocated
[21:28] <Roman34> how can i check if something is running every minute?
[21:29] <brontoeee> Citizenwarrior, last time i used a chat 'feature' to get dell support, the staff name was 'michele'
[21:29] <mickster04> Jonii: then windows is probably gone :/
[21:29] <Ubuntu_fedora> !gpart
[21:29] <Citizenwarrior> brontoeee, Got it
[21:29] <Starminn> Roman34: System->Administrion->System Monitor->Processes or "top" will show you everything that's running.
[21:29] <Logan_WP> !msgthebot | Ubuntu_fedora
[21:29] <Ubuntu_fedora> !gpart FloodBot1
[21:29] <Jonii> mickster04, well, then I don't install ubuntu
[21:30] <Datz> maco: humm, well this one idea disappeared, not sure where it went
[21:30] <silverrocker> hi, I have a question about configering static ip address from the commandline. I would also like to set my DNS. I have tried to change the values in /etc/network/interfaces without effect, even after ifconfig down/up of eth0
[21:30] <erUSUL> Roman34: quick and dirty; while pgrep programname; do sleep 60; done && echo "No running"
[21:30] <Aginor> Jonii: I offer hope, give me a moment to find the links
[21:30] <Logan_WP>
[21:30] <Citizenwarrior> linxeh yes my preference is OOS for all the drivers and such
[21:30] <Datz> maco: maybe it was implemented
[21:30] <maco> Datz: did you try teh search? the "popular" tab just shows what's been popular for the month
[21:30] <mickster04> Jonii: you probably wanna try system rescue, it sounds like windows has been gone
[21:31] <erUSUL> Roman34: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/ProcessManagement
[21:31] <Datz> maco: yea, I tried
[21:31] <Odaym> what does the file "issue" in /etc/ do?
[21:31] <Jonii> If it makes me lose my Windows, I'm not doing it. But anyway, I don't think the situation is that bad. Windows(and ubuntu fdisk -l and ubuntu file browser all find my system drives and such
[21:31] <hihihi100> i copy dvds with k9copy, but im not able to copy JUST the subtitles? is there any dvdripper ubuntu based that copies the subtitles alone?
[21:31] <Aginor> Jonii: I used http://www.sysresccd.org/ recently, it comes with a tool called test-disk that can scan your harddrive and recreate partitions for the filesystems it finds
[21:31] <Jonii> mickster04, no, it's still there
[21:31] <Citizenwarrior> linxeh however if such a great item of hardware were to be supported by proprietary drivers that worked out of the box in ubuntu then I would look at using them
[21:31] <jrib> Odaym: « man issue »
[21:31] <mickster04> Jonii: are you sure? you can boot into it?
[21:31] <Odaym> it's a command?
[21:31] <jrib> Odaym: read and find out!
[21:31] <Bijoe> Salut
[21:31] <Jonii> mickster04, sure. I've been switching between livecd and windows all day
[21:31] <Odaym> of course, yes jrib, but i can man a file?
[21:32] <Datz> maco: I bet it was implemented. there are no ideas in that section
[21:32] <Odaym> didnt know
[21:32] <mickster04> \joare you sure that the hdd is unallocated??
[21:32] <jrib> Odaym: section 5: File formats and conventions
[21:32] <brontoeee> hihihi100, subs from videoDVDs? you do know that those are actually bitmaps right?
[21:32] <Jonii> \joare?
[21:33] <Jonii> mickster04, anyway, gparted thinks the entire disk is unallocated, but it is not. It has my windows(and all the programs I have in windows) in it
[21:33] <Citizenwarrior> brontoeee, if a video card is supported with RedHat linux will it also be supported by Ubuntu?  Because all the systems I am looking at have shipping with RH as an option...
[21:34] <mickster04> Jonii: ok
[21:34] <pizzamano> qualcuno mi da una mano con ubuntu?
[21:34] <erUSUL> !it | pizzamano
[21:34] <Jonii> And since Ubuntu installer uses gparted(i hear?), Ubuntu installer kinda fails
[21:34] <brontoeee> Citizenwarrior, no idea
[21:34] <Datz> maco: I guess I'll find out in 11.04
[21:34] <hihihi100> to whoever answered me
[21:34] <pizzamano> thanks :D
[21:34] <hihihi100> no i didnt know subtitles where bit maps
[21:34] <pizzamano> join #ubuntu-it
[21:35] <hihihi100> im a noob, how does that affect the ability to copy just the subtitles?
[21:35] <oracle> what package am i missing: make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.32-26-generic-pae/build: No such file or directory.  Stop.
[21:35] <Kyle__> UEC question: shoudl WALRUS_IP_ADDR by defined in all the nodes, or just the walrus server?
[21:35] <erUSUL> oracle: kernel headers « sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) »
[21:35] <oracle> thanks erusul
[21:35] <hihihi100> in pirate bay ppl can download movies with the subtitles as an independent file, the user can the choose to see or not to see them
[21:36] <oracle> did you type that all out or was it a script ;)
[21:36] <brontoeee> hihihi100, depends on your final usage, i don't know any tools for linux that will do OCR ripping
[21:36] <Jonii> Aginor, do you know if I could get livecd ubuntu run that program?
[21:36] <hihihi100> ok
[21:36] <brontoeee> hihihi100, warez is not supported
[21:36] <Citizenwarrior> anyone have any idea if a video card is supported with RedHat linux will it also be supported by Ubuntu?  Because all the systems I am looking at have shipping with RH as an option...
[21:36] <Cyberhot> hi everyone
[21:37] <mickster04> hello
[21:37] <linxeh> brontoeee: subs on dvds are text, not bitmaps I thought ?
[21:37] <Cyberhot> Who wants a cool ready .kth backtrack theme???
[21:37] <brontoeee> linxeh, nope, they are bitmaps
[21:37] <Cyberhot> :))))))))))))))))
[21:38] <Aginor> Jonii: I think you will be able to install the testdisk package when you have the live-cd booted, then you can run the tool
[21:38] <brontoeee> linxeh, let me find some nice link....
[21:38] <Jonii> I don't really have any more cd's
[21:38] <Aginor> Jonii: installing the package should not touch your harddrive either, it will al just be in memory
[21:38] <Kyle__> brontoeee: there are some, I've used them, give me a sec to remember the names.
[21:38] <Kyle__> tesseract, that's the one I've used.
[21:38] <Jonii> http://pastebin.com/CMy9nX4H <- This shows what fdisk -l thinks about my disk
[21:38] <luqui> hi.  my computer thinks the battery is low when it's not.  can i tell it not to take any action when it detects the power is critically low?
[21:38] <erUSUL> oracle: i have an alias. headers --> « sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) »
[21:38] <Kyle__> Citizenwarrior: RedHat as in RedHat EnterpriseLinux?  Yes
[21:39] <hihihi100> this may work http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=273635
[21:39] <hihihi100> subtitles
[21:39] <brontoeee> linxeh, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD-Video#Subtitles
[21:39] <Kyle__> Citizenwarrior: RedHat is a slow moving distro (in terms of package updates, not processing speed ;).  If it's supported in RHEL, it should work fine in any modern linux.
[21:40] <Kyle__> hihihi100: brontoeee: you guys know that subtitles in DVD are a layered video track, not actual text, right?
[21:40] <linxeh> brontoeee: I was reading http://sam.zoy.org/writings/dvd/subtitles/ - interesting. I assumed they were text and the dvd player controlled the rendering completely. thanks for clearing that up
[21:40] <hihihi100> kyle__ no, im a nob
[21:40] <cobas_> Installing Ubuntu. Attempt #2.
[21:40] <brontoeee> Kyle__, i know that :)
[21:40] <Jonii> Also, I have first 512 bytes of my HDD on my friends USB stick. This, I suppose, means that my partition table is backup'ed?
[21:40] <Kyle__> hihihi100: NP.  But yea, it's video, which is why it's such a PITA to incorperate when ripping.
[21:40] <Klaus_Dieter> Jonii: correct
[21:40] <cobas_> I think I should just give up trying to use the desktop CD and always use the alternative CD, somehow the desktop one never works for me
[21:41] <BiPolah> hihihi100: Depending on what format it is, you could try a Demuxer to enable or disable subtitles. If you have no subtitles at all, get something like Media Player Classic and look for a subtitle file for that video
[21:41] <brontoeee> Kyle__, not really video, a series of bitmaps
[21:42] <Aginor> away
[21:42] <Jonii> Great. Now, how do I install this testdisk, what does that software do, how do I use it to fix my partition table, and what are the risks?
[21:42] <Kyle__> brontoeee: I always interpreted it as a video with 1 frame per "page" of text, with keyframes matching the frame it's switched to...but yea bitmaps is probably a better description .
[21:43] <Klaus_Dieter> Jonii: ???
[21:43] <Klaus_Dieter> it is only a table with offsets where the partitions start and end
[21:43] <Klaus_Dieter> it will not do you any good unless your partition table itself is broken
[21:44] <erUSUL> Jonii: as i said before. « sudo apt-get install testdisk »
[21:44] <erUSUL> Jonii: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step
[21:44] <BiPolah> Kyle, it's not bitmaps. It's just text overlaying the video.
[21:44] <Jonii> Klaus_Dieter, well, yeah, as far as I know, my partition table is itself broken
[21:44] <Klaus_Dieter> you can copy it to your harddrive but if you have to ask this kind of question it is porbably not what you want
[21:44] <kandinsk1> ta
[21:44] <geekbri> does anybody know if sun-java still hangs an ec2 micro instance if you are installling it in a 32bit one?
[21:45] <brontoeee> BiPolah, nope, they could be ubuntu logo jumping around, its not text, its: pictures of text
[21:45] <ResQue> i have a real problem here guys, i am running from the live cd, but when ever i try todo apt-get install. it freeze half way through. i have tryed burning a new cd but i get the same problem everytime. any ideas?
[21:45] <Klaus_Dieter> Jonii:  then you copy it over by dd if=/mnt/fileofthefirst512bytefromthehd of=/dev/hdd-device bs=512
[21:46] <ejv> hello, how do I disable the KVM module when my ubuntu server starts up? it's interfering with virtualbox virtualization.
[21:46] <BiPolah> Hmm, I guess that would allow usage of unavailable fonts, if I'm not mistaken
[21:47] <brontoeee> BiPolah, thats how they solved unicode problem in those days, all languages are magically supported
[21:48] <brontoeee> BiPolah, check http://www.mpeg.org/MPEG/DVD/Book_B/Subpic.html
[21:48] <BiPolah> Brontoeee, I mean various symbols and things that may be in one font but not another. Not languages
[21:49] <Logan_WP> mmm, netsplit
[21:49] <Osmodivs> I think My system is about to crash, It does not open Celestia, Blender, Not even show info in SysInfo app, this is the latest out put for SysInfo  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/6yXKYGZA   What exactly is hapening to my system??
[21:50] <grendal_prime> grrrr. i just had an id_rsa file dissapear..if that makes any sence
[21:50] <hihihi100> lol
[21:50] <shane_> anyone runnin ubuntu on a netbook?
[21:50] <Kyle__> BiPolah: No, in DVDs it's not text. In some ripped formats it's text, but not on actual DVDs.
[21:50] <grendal_prime> is this some sort of security enhancemtn
[21:50] <Jonii> Klaus_Dieter, http://pastebin.com/CMy9nX4H <- See this
[21:50] <Jonii> Ubuntu installation doesn't recognize existing partitions on my disk, so I can't install ubuntu without wiping out my entire disk if I don't fix the partition table. So, in case this attempt backfires, I wanted to backup my existing partition table, which I think I did
[21:50] <Jonii> The idea is that if something goes wrong, I can just use that backup and my windows is still usable
[21:50] <Jonii> It seems my connection is acting funny
[21:50] <Jonii> Or not.
[21:50] <Kyle__> Anyway, is there a UEC specific channel?
[21:50] <Kyle__> UEC==Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud.
[21:50]  * Kyle__ hasn't found one.
[21:50] <NixGeek> Truecrypt is not giving me a format options page like the once shown here, http://tinyurl.com/tcformatoptions, that was on this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TrueCrypt  Also, truecrypt sits at 100% and does give me an outer volujme contents screen.

[21:53] <Lorizean> got mesa, still gives me an error when including GL/glu.h
[21:54] <Jonii> Hmm
[21:54] <Lorizean> gl.h seems to work though
[21:54] <Lorizean> so, glut?

[21:55] <erUSUL> Lorizean: install freeglut3-dev then ?

[21:57] <tzaeru> uh, does anyone happen to have any clue on why keeping buttons down suddenly stops working?
[21:57] <Jonii> Ahem, sorry, due to netsplit, my backlog doesn't have that command which installs disktest
[21:57] <Lorizean> erUSUL: got it working now, thanks!

[21:59] <Lorizean> so, now if anybody could help me with this - since maverick, my netbook won't shut down properly, i.e. it hangs during the shutdown and I have to hard-shutdown it.
[22:00] <Lorizean> I disabled the wireless once (before booting, switch on the netbook) and it worked fine, so I guess it has to do with the wireless
[22:00] <Lorizean> anybody got an idea what could be wrong? or tell me what info I should post... it worked fine with lucid too.
[22:01] <Starminn> How do I enter Unicode on Linux (not Character Mapping)
[22:01] <Aginor> Jonii: in a console, do sudo aptitude isntall tesdisk
[22:01] <Aginor> Jonii: or like rww said, sudo apt-get install testdisk
[22:02] <gnomefreak> Lorizean: can you shutdown from command ok or does it also hang
[22:02] <Jonii> rww, erUSUL : "package testdisk not found"
[22:02] <Jonii> Aginor, "packet testdisk not found"
[22:03] <Klaus_Dieter> Jonii: do not touch the partition table
[22:03] <Klaus_Dieter> make a backup first
[22:03] <Klaus_Dieter> chances are if you change something you will screw up your windows installation
[22:03] <j3d3> Loriz--- what kind of netbook
[22:03] <Jonii> Klaus_Dieter, like I said, I have 512 first bytes of my HDD safe on a USB stick

[22:04] <Lorizean> j3d3, how to find out?
[22:04] <eross> is there a comparable database editor w/forms similar to MS access that's not tied to openoffice or libreoffice? eg a little more dedicated, maybe produce html too?
[22:04] <Aginor> Jonii: you need to have the universe repo enabled
[22:04] <Lorizean> yeah, i found that thread before. last time i checked, they didn't have a real solution there and it all seemed to have different causes anyways?
[22:04] <Jonii> Aginor, how do I do that, and should I do that? Is there any danger?
[22:04] <Lorizean> and sudo halt doesn't work for me either
[22:05] <Aginor> jonii: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[22:05] <Aginor> Jonii: no danger at that part
[22:06] <jgvox> alguem de brasilia  ae?????
[22:06] <Jonii> Like, I only have 3gb of RAM. After that runs out, what happens?
[22:07] <Aginor> Jonii: you will face difficulties, but you don't need to worry about running out of ram until you add quite some stuff
[22:08] <ner0x> Anyone familiar with nullmailers/
[22:08] <ner0x> ?*
[22:08] <cobas_> Jonii: if you run out of ram, you start using hard disk (swap area) as though it was ram
[22:08] <Aginor> cobas_: on a live cd?
[22:08] <Jonii> cobas_, swap area?
[22:09] <cobas_> oh, on a live CD?
[22:09] <cobas_> then I have no clue
[22:09] <Aginor> Jonii: it won't touch the hard drive unless you tell it to, so it won't swap
[22:09] <erUSUL> !info testdisk
[22:09] <cobas_> sorry, didn't see the top half of the conv, just got back to my computer
[22:09] <JosephKerr001> has anyone here tried to dual boot
[22:10]  * Starminn Raises hand as a successful dual-booter
[22:10] <cobas_> yeah, I have too
[22:10] <Aginor> yeah
[22:10] <cobas_> bbl.
[22:11] <JosephKerr001> i'm looking into it but i'm running an older version of ubuntu, not sure if that makes any kind of difference
[22:12] <JosephKerr001> the guide i was looking at was for newest version
[22:12] <Jeruvy> JosephKerr001: ppl have been successfully dual-booting for a long time, do you have a support question?  If you're just looking for advise I might suggest #ubuntu-offtopic.
[22:12] <Aginor> JosephKerr001: some of the guides might be too new, but for the obvious things using grub it should be pretty much the same
[22:12] <JosephKerr001> thought so. and if i have any more questions i'll check there. thanks both

[22:20] <Jonii> I'm struggling to find how to run testdisk :/
[22:21] <Jonii> The suggested command to run it doesn't work
[22:22] <Jonii> that sudo testdisk-6.9/linux/testdisk_static
[22:22] <mgolisch> Jonii: sudo testdisk?
[22:22] <arand> Jonii: Have you succeded in installing it? You enable the universe repo though "software sources" in the admin menu.
[22:22] <ThinkT510> Jonii: try typing "man testdisk" and it should show you a manpage with what options you have to run it
[22:23] <zicho> i think ubuntu is saving files to my harddrives without me knowing... because i hade like 800mv free space earlier, now i have only 123mb, and i have not downloaded anything to my harddrive, what could cause this?
[22:23] <neil_d> Athenon: freenx isn't in the repostiores.

[22:23] <evilsushi> is anyone using full disk encryption?
[22:23] <evilsushi> does it use dm-crypt or truecrypt?

[22:24] <ciaran> zicho: flash vids in temp folder?
[22:25] <zicho> erUSUL some of the logs are awfully big, yes... can i erase them without it causing a problem?
[22:25] <zicho> ciaran how can i tell?
[22:25] <rww> evilsushi: I know it isn't truecrypt. Dunno what it is exactly.
[22:25] <erUSUL> zicho: check the isze of /var/log/ and ~/.xsession-errors
[22:25] <Targeter> normally logs should rotate on their own
[22:26] <ciaran> zicho tmp directory in \
[22:26] <zicho> /var/log is 2,1 gig
[22:26] <Jonii> Oh, found
[22:26] <Sakuya> hey all
[22:26] <SgrA> My friend used WUBI to install Xubuntu but after that was done and he rebooted, X server couldn't be started and some frequency error was reported.
[22:26] <Jonii> But, what do I do with testdisk now that it's up and running?
[22:27] <Targeter> yeaaaaa something in your /var/log is chugging space down
[22:27] <Sakuya> anyone run into errors with windows 7 sp1?  apparently having grub or other bootloaders installed makes it fail, and I really don't want to nuke GRUB over this crap :/
[22:27] <zicho> erUSUL /var/log is 2,1 gb and xsession errors only 1,1m
[22:27] <arand> Jonii: Select the disk, and scan it, then select which partitions (out of the ones it finds) you want to keep and which to not.
[22:27] <Jonii> test logical: Partition sector does not have the endmark 0xAA55
[22:27] <Targeter> you could try grub2, its much better at finding stuff. is SP1 win7 even out officially?
[22:28] <Jonii> Is this bad?
[22:28] <erUSUL> zicho: better take a look at them to find out what is spamming them. find out the root problem
[22:28] <zicho> erUSUL probably yes
[22:28] <Targeter> can use the du command to see the size of each directory
[22:28] <erUSUL> zicho: then zero them « echo "" | sudo tee /var/log/whatever »
[22:29] <Targeter> not to spam, but du -h /var/log will output the size of each directory :)
[22:29] <arand> zicho: I would beforehand take a look at WHAT it is that is making them so big
[22:29] <erUSUL> zicho: again find out what is spamming the log
[22:29] <voglster> ok routing issue... network A <IP_ADDRESS>/24 network B <IP_ADDRESS>/24... just a basic linux box routing between the 2 subnets  i can view a http server from a machine in network A to a machine in network B.. but i cannot from netwrok B to network A, pinging works fine

[22:31] <WXZ> is it possible to stream music

[22:33] <zicho> shit's gone crazy
[22:33] <Jonii> Now, well, what do I do?
[22:33] <mkanyicy> !lang | zicho
[22:33] <mkanyicy> !language | zicho
[22:34] <mkanyicy> Jonii, about what?
[22:34] <Jonii> Like, I have testdisk up and running, but I like step-by-step guide for my sort of problem, that is, I haven't lost any partitions, the table is just broken
[22:34] <WXZ> there's this flash based chat, where you can use cam and mic
[22:34] <WXZ> I have neither, but I still want people to be able to hear my music
[22:34] <WXZ> would gstreamer be useful for that?
[22:34] <mkanyicy> Jonii, why did it break?
[22:35] <Jonii> mkanyicy, no idea
[22:35] <Jonii> I've been doing bad stuff to it, I guess

[22:44] <Ub3r-N00b> could anyone tell me how to check the bit rate on the processor in ubuntu 10.04 ? ...x32, x64 etc ?

[22:44] <Dj_Deutschi> First start everything was good, but after typing some commands then all the characters started looking like wrong encoding
[22:44] <daniel_tree> to get rid of this all I can do is to restart...and If I do I get the system shadowed bios shadowed...error ..and the system cand boot...the only workaround is to remove the battery and intert it again and restart...but this bug happens almost every time ....it's so annoing

[22:51] <heavy_bullets> guys i have a question.. what's the difference between ubuntu and kubuntu?
[22:51] <gedos21> ola
[22:51] <gedos21> fedra
[22:51] <mickster04> heavy_bullets: kde?
[22:51] <rww> heavy_bullets: kubuntu uses the KDE desktop environment by default. ubuntu uses GNOME.
[22:51] <mickster04> !kubuntu
[22:51] <Starminn> Ubuntu uses GNOME and Kubuntu uses KDE heavy_bullets
[22:52] <FLJohn> If you are running 64 bit Ubuntu and want to watch Hulu and can not, download the Seamonky browser from the repository and Hulu will work perfectly
[22:52] <zicho> erUSUL i didnt quite understand that solution... i added "blacklist evbug" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf, this should solve it?
[22:52] <rww> FLJohn: This channel is for Ubuntu technical support, not unsolicited advice, thanks.
[22:52] <heavy_bullets> so can you switch betwen the desktop and override that difference?
[22:52] <erUSUL> Jonii: according to this http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step#Save_the_partition_table_or_search_for_more_partitions.3F <<< you choose writte on the menu not proceed
[22:53] <erUSUL> zicho: yes; do « modprobe -r evbug » too
[22:53] <zicho> erUSUL thx, should i erase the huge logs now, or does that cause problems?
[22:53] <Jonii> ersul, there is no "write" until you try to proceed or search, and that messes the table up entirely
[22:54] <erUSUL> zicho: better 0 them
[22:54] <Jonii> But, I try to fight fire with fire. I search more!
[22:54] <zicho> erUSUL how do i do that?
[22:54] <Firefishe> I'm running 10.04 LTS.  Everything is running reasonably smoothly, with little difficulty.  Considering this is a laptop circa 2008, is there any major reason to upgrade to meerkat?
[22:54] <erUSUL> zicho:  « echo "" | sudo tee /var/log/whatever »
[22:54] <rww> Firefishe: not really, no
[22:54] <jrib> Firefishe: nope, if lucid works, stick with it
[22:54] <Firefishe> rww, jrib:  thank you, I thought as much
[22:54] <rww> Firefishe: if you stay on 10.04, you have the benefit of it being an LTS, so it's supported for 3 years (instead of 18 months) and can be upgraded directly to the next LTS when it comes out.
[22:55] <Jonii> I'm a bit worried that Windows RE(store) changes name to "PQSERVICE", but whatever
[22:55] <erUSUL> zicho: i.e « echo "" | sudo tee /var/log/{syslog,messages} »
[22:55] <arand> zicho: Or you could use "logrotate"
[22:55] <Firefishe> rww:  really?  I did not know that about the LTS releases.  I have no problems with lucid, in fact, it's been the most stable u(k)(x)ubuntu I've used.

[22:56] <IsmAvatar> drexl: send to manufacturer, ask for replacement
[22:56] <IsmAvatar> :-p
[22:56] <erUSUL> drexl: you can not repair them... you can mark them so they are not used check ntfs utils in windows-
[22:57] <Firefishe> rww:  backports keeps kde up to date, so I'm good there.  Haven't had a chance to try the new gnome yet...is there a way to try it out in a stand-alone fashion, perhaps?
[22:57] <zicho> erUSUL thank you :)

[22:57] <olimones_> Hello, I have a problem installing asterisk-GUI 2.0 on a ubuntu server. Does any one can help?. I see the Web interface but when i try to log on it cycles looking to verify rights to write on gui folder.
[22:57] <drexl> I ran chkdsk \r it took all night and there are still bad sectors
[22:57] <Firefishe> rww:  I guess that'd work.  usb images are on the main site, correct?
[22:58] <sheant> drexl: Disks with errors, throw them away. New disks are much cheaper than the pain from losing data.
[22:58] <rww> Firefishe: you use the normal ISO image with Startup Disk Creator (found under System -> Administration, I think)
[22:58] <drexl> sheant: that's what I'm going to do
[22:58] <sheant> drexl: Good choice. :)
[22:59] <drexl> what's a good linux disk cloning tool?
[22:59] <olimones_> I have search on google and so far have had no solution even though it seems i am not the only one with this problem

[23:01] <Jonii> Does empty space on a disk need to be partitioned somehow?
[23:01] <YankDownUnder> Define empty
[23:01] <WXZ> how can I record desktop audio
[23:01] <WXZ> and stream it directly into the mic input?
[23:02] <neil_d> Athenon: I got the freenx installed... but I can't seem to find a client (viewer) what do I use?
[23:02] <Logan_WP> YankDownUnder: containing nothing <empty shelves>
[23:02] <Jonii> Like, if I just use testdisk to partition C: and D:, which leaves last 14GB on my disk totally unallocated, and then run Ubuntu installation and install Ubuntu to the last 14GB, is there a problem?
[23:02] <YankDownUnder> Logan_WP, Ah...
[23:02] <YankDownUnder> Unallocated - grow already used partitions to use that space, or create a completely new partition...?
[23:03] <daniel_tree> is it safe to turn of the acpi ?
[23:03] <Jonii> YankDownUnder, Ubuntu installation should create a new partition for itself at the end of the disk
[23:03] <YankDownUnder> Jonii, "should" being the operative word...
[23:04] <Jonii> YankDownUnder, Ubuntu installation should know how to do that, right? Or not?
[23:04] <tobier> my network manager is no longer visible, however it evidently starts up because I got automatically connected
[23:04] <mickster04> Jonii: yeah, you can manually specificy partitions in the installer
[23:04] <tobier> why? :P
[23:05] <YankDownUnder> Jonii, Rarely do allow for "automatic" partitioning on either my own machines or client machines - I have a preference to enforce my own partition scheme (and filesystem) - therefore, I do it manually.
[23:05] <denwerko> tobier, try alt+f2 nm-applet
[23:05] <tobier> if I kill nm-applet and restarts, it shows up in my notification area, but not when logging in
[23:05] <tobier> *restart the applet
[23:05] <daniel_tree> does anyone see what I write ???
[23:05] <Jonii> YankDownUnder, naturally I'd do it manually
[23:06] <Jonii> The question was if it was possible to do it using installation program
[23:06] <serard> oh guys I'm sorry about the away msg :/
[23:06] <denwerko> daniel_tree, yes, we do. about acpi, it should depend on your hw (if it is safe or not)
[23:06] <YankDownUnder> Jonii, During the installation - you're allowed to check the partitioning scheme.
[23:07] <daniel_tree> denwerko, I have an annoing bug..that happens every time
[23:07] <denwerko> daniel_tree, why dont you try booting without acpi from liveCD or liveUSB ?
[23:07] <tobier> so, any ideas why the network manager starts doesn't show up in the notification bar until I kill it and restart it?
[23:07] <theborger> anyone give me a hand on getting apt-get to work? i need to install x

[23:14] <theborger> mickster04, i cant get into X how  can i run synaptics?
[23:14] <mickster04> theborger: a valid point
[23:14] <magicianlord> theborger: from terminal, you run apt-get
[23:14] <daniel_tree> denwerko, but no solution :(
[23:14] <mickster04> theborger: if tab complete doesn't find it, have you run apt-get update
[23:14] <kaushal> is there a ubuntu networking channel ?
[23:14] <denwerko> daniel_tree, yep. Have you tried new kernel ?
[23:14] <magicianlord> apt-get is easy
[23:14] <drexl> Noxes: what wireless card are you using, I use ndiswrapper for all my cards
[23:14] <Noxes> I was running ubuntu 10.10 before, and I had my RT3090pci wireless card working perfectly. I decided to reinstall Ubuntu, but everytime I restarted after installing the drivers, it wouldn't work at all.. I checked "lspci" and instead of displaying the Ralink 3090 info, it just says "Device d8dc:f8d8" and lshw said it's "unclaimed".
[23:14] <mickster04> magicianlord: pay attention, he has done, it doesn't work

[23:15] <daniel_tree> denwerko, 2.6.35-25 I have now...is there a newer version ?
[23:15] <Targeter> exit
[23:15] <Noxes> I've searched google along with the ubuntu forums to no avail.
[23:16] <bowentwo> ok i am trying to install ubuntu 10.10 i can do it on the live cd and i have 1 monitor/1vidcard i don't think the other video card/monitor is being seen. I want to do a real install but am nervous of driver to use for 2 xfx 6850's i'm completely new to this so i apologize now if this is a simple task.\
[23:16] <mickster04> Noxes: update ungrade?
[23:16] <Noxes> Excuse me?
[23:17] <mickster04> Noxes: have you run update on your system recently?
[23:17] <ikonia> bowentwo: the nvidia propritary drivers are not happy with 2 graphics cards, twinview likes to use one video card
[23:17] <magicianlord> is there an ubuntu networking channel?
[23:17] <ikonia> bowentwo: if two monitors share one video card then twinview is happy
[23:17] <ikonia> magicianlord: just ask the question
[23:17] <syn-ack> magicianlord, you're kinda in it
[23:18] <Noxes> Yes, multiple times, but since I reinstalled ubuntu, it's just been sitting as Ubuntu 10.10 normally, without upgrades.
[23:18] <kaushal> ikonia: Can someone please guide me about setting P2P link ?
[23:18] <bowentwo> ikonia: sadly the 6850's are ati/amd cards
[23:18] <daniel_tree> denwerko, Linux version 2.6.35-25-generic (buildd@palmer) (gcc version 4.4.5 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.4.4-14ubuntu5) ) #44-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 21 17:40:48 UTC 2011
[23:18] <rww> magicianlord: please don't repeat questions from other users
[23:18] <ikonia> kaushal: in what respect
[23:18] <rww> ubottu: tell kaushal about crossposting
[23:18] <denwerko> daniel_tree, yes, sure. i am running 2.6.38-rc6. if you have time, you could try compiling (how to is on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild). If it is kernel problem, this could help
[23:18] <ikonia> bowentwo: same is true of the ati cards, only in my experience worse
[23:18] <bowentwo> ikonia: lol thank you for the help
[23:18] <WXZ> is it possible to record your desktop sound and stream it as your mic
[23:19] <WXZ> like for skype and other chat stuff
[23:19] <kaushal> ikonia: not sure how to proceed
[23:19] <ikonia> bowentwo: I'm sorry it's not a positive response
[23:19] <daniel_tree> denwerko, I think is a kernel issue ..cause in 9.10 it wasnt this bug
[23:19] <ikonia> kaushal: you've not asked a question yet
[23:19] <quentusrex> Anyone know if iit is possible to start the download of all the packages needed to upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04?
[23:19] <mickster04> WXZ: you can get male to male 3.5 jack cables
[23:19] <IsmAvatar> Hey guys, when upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10, during "Setting new software channels", it fails with the following error: http://pastebin.com/bqGjs8LZ looking at apt.log it looks like it might be a problem with my proprietary graphics driver.
[23:19] <denwerko> daniel_tree, btw, does it affect system performance, suspending or something else ?
[23:19] <Noxes> It's currently set as a Mint install though, I wanted to see if another distro would help.. I plan to install back to ubuntu.. But either way it still displays a weird device name in lspci, and drivers will not work.
[23:19] <magicianlord> denwerko: what bug
[23:19] <mickster04> quentusrex: it's called the live disk iso?
[23:19] <ikonia> quentusrex: it downloads it during the upgrade process
[23:19] <quentusrex> It will take hours for the packages to download, but I will not be ready to start the upgrade until tomorrow.
[23:19] <kaushal> ikonia: I have a P2P link between Data Center and our office
[23:19] <ikonia> Noxes: if it's mint we can't help
[23:19] <ikonia> kaushal: ok ?
[23:19] <mickster04> quentusrex: just download and burn the ISO
[23:20] <kaushal> so how do i set it up
[23:20] <denwerko> magicianlord, ask daniel_tree
[23:20] <daniel_tree> denwerko, the keyboard is not responding...when I type the writing lags
[23:20] <WXZ> mickster04: and then attach the mic input to the stereo output?
[23:20] <bowentwo> so ikonia: should i just stick with windows 7, till support can be found?
[23:20] <kaushal> like networking diagram
[23:20] <WXZ> I don't think it works that way
[23:20] <Noxes> Then I'll just install back to ubuntu on it.. It'll still display the same problem though.
[23:20] <ikonia> kaushal: it should just be a network connection to your ubuntu machine
[23:20] <mickster04> WXZ: yes
[23:20] <ikonia> Noxes: ok
[23:20] <WXZ> I think the mic input is a lot more sensitive then the mic output
[23:20] <kaushal> ikonia: can i pvt message you ?
[23:20] <WXZ> and it'll fry it
[23:20] <ikonia> kaushal: I'd rather you didn't,
[23:20] <WXZ> I'm pretty sure I heard that
[23:20] <ikonia> kaushal: better to speak in the hcannel
[23:20] <ikonia> channel
[23:20] <Noxes> Other than that, what do you think would be a good possible fix for this?
[23:20] <mickster04> WXZ: stick the ends in your ears if you want but mic to audio in will work best
[23:20] <kaushal> since its high volume
[23:20] <ikonia> kaushal: just speak in the channel
[23:21] <mickster04> WXZ: unlikely
[23:21] <syn-ack> ikonia! ikonia! I wanna pvt message you too! :P
[23:21] <daniel_tree> denwerko,  so it's impossible to continue working after the error occurs
[23:21] <mickster04> !pastebin
[23:21] <denwerko> daniel_tree, something like this ? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1466442
[23:21] <kaushal> so i need to 10 PCs the P2P connection via gateway or switch
[23:21] <ikonia> kaushal: ok, that will be done at the network device level, not the ubuntu level
[23:22] <mickster04> kaushal: you are mixing different layers of the OSI diagram
[23:22] <kaushal> mickster04: ok
[23:22] <IsmAvatar> 10.10 upgrade help please? http://pastebin.com/bqGjs8LZ
[23:22] <kaushal> mickster04: how do i proceed
[23:22] <ikonia> kaushal: do you have a networking team where you work ?
[23:22] <kaushal> nope
[23:22] <WXZ> mickster04: hmmm... ehow agrees with you
[23:23] <WXZ> I'll try it I guess
[23:23] <Jonii> About partitions
[23:23] <mickster04> kaushal: well p2p is nothing to do with how the network is physially connected
[23:23] <Jonii> I need help
[23:23] <ikonia> kaushal: the p2p link should be set up between networking infrastructure, not the ubuntu machine
[23:23] <mickster04> WXZ: yeah, turn the volumes down at first if you're cautious
[23:23] <Godslastering> about how much ram (estimated) does a ubuntu 10.10 install use, right out of the box?
[23:23] <ikonia> Godslastering: as much as you have
[23:23] <mickster04> Godslastering: it should say on the website
[23:23] <mickster04> !requirements
[23:24] <daniel_tree> denwerko, when I log in I can type normally ...only after a while...this error occurs from nowhere and then all the magic happens :) I cant type correctly..and the infinite messeges in the bus
[23:24] <Jonii> testdisk found all my drives, finally, but now I'm having trouble understanding what does "deleted" "extended" "primary partition" "primary bootable" and such mean?
[23:24] <ikonia> Jonii: ask in ##hardware that's not an ubuntu issue or lesson
[23:24] <Starminn> Godslastering: Mine ran like a dream (compared to Windows XP) on 512MB so it doesn't need much. Now that I have 4 and a half GB, I've never caught it using anything about 800MB.
[23:24] <Godslastering> ikonia: let me rephrase. i'm not talking about requirements, nor am i talking about caching. if i open "system monitor" with 24 gigs of ram, about how much should it be using, by default? (obviously if i open htop and look, it's using a lot much in the kernel for caching).. then again, if i have less than a gig of ram, it runs fine also
[23:24] <Godslastering> Starminn: yes i'm noticing about 800MB, didn't know if that is about what it should be or not
[23:25] <IsmAvatar> Would it be wise to uninstall my proprietary graphics driver to hopefully make the upgrade to 10.10 work?
[23:25] <Noxes> Ikonia, I'm installing a fresh copy of Ubuntu 10.10 now.
[23:25] <ikonia> Godslastering: I know you're not talking about requirements, thats why I said it will use "as much as you have"
[23:25] <denwerko> daniel_tree, googling it with Aspire-5930 and doenst look like somebody solved it...
[23:25] <mickster04> IsmAvatar: it depends what is causing the update to break?
[23:25] <ikonia> IsmAvatar: do you have any 3rd party or external repos enabled ?
[23:25] <denwerko> daniel_tree, sorry, going off. good luck, bye
[23:25] <theborger> mickster04, so i ran sudo apt-get update,  still nuffin
[23:25] <WXZ> mickster04: Speaker output power can be many Watts. That energy has to go somewhere; a resistor burns it as heat. To bring the signal down to microphone levels a lot of Watts may need to be burned.
[23:25] <Godslastering> ikonia: nevermind then, Starminn pretty much answered me.
[23:25] <Starminn> Godslastering: Yeah, I think mine sits at around 300-800 while I'm using it (I multi-task a lot). Even now I'm running a VM and it's using 1004MB. So yeah you're good.
[23:25] <daniel_tree> denwerko, thanks bye
[23:25] <WXZ> mickster04: http://www.electro-tech-online.com/general-electronics-chat/42602-how-do-i-get-microphone-input-speaker-output.html
[23:25] <theborger> E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[23:25] <mickster04> theborger: have you enabled the appropriate sources?
[23:26] <IsmAvatar> mickster04: it seems like the graphics driver is
[23:26] <theborger> mickster04, where do you do that at?
[23:26] <IsmAvatar> ikonia: not that I know of?
[23:26] <theborger> mickster04, and what ones?
[23:26] <Godslastering> Starminn: yeah when i run VMs i get to almost 20 out of 24gb used at times, and the host os still runs decently, so that's good
[23:26] <mickster04> theborger: iunno do /msg ubottu !info xinit
[23:26] <Starminn> Godslastering. Awesome. Glad to help.
[23:27] <mickster04> WXZ: well you seem to have found your own help, welld one
[23:27] <Noxes> Ikonia: I'm installing Ubuntu 10.10 now. Lspci on the liveCD also displays the wrong device name for my wireless card.
[23:28] <IsmAvatar> Package xserver-xorg-video-nouveau has broken Depends on xorg-video-abi-8.0
[23:28] <IsmAvatar>   Holding Back xserver-xorg-video-nouveau rather than change xorg-video-abi-8.0
[23:28] <WXZ> mickster04: I know there's a way to mix them in windows, I'm going to see if I can find a non-hardware solution
[23:28] <jfe> is there any program available that would allow me to pipe data to the clipboard?
[23:28] <ikonia> Noxes: ok , lspci is just based on psci-id's so that's not something to worry about
[23:28] <mickster04> WXZ: very good
[23:28] <WXZ> but plugging your output into your mic input would blow your soundcard out (according to that site)
[23:28] <regeya> I have an internal machine where I have phpldapadmin and redmine set up on apache2.  Right now avahi handles dns, so if I point a browser to foo.local dnssd is what handles it.  How would I go about setting it up so that redmine is available at redmine.foo.local and phpldapadmin at ldapadmin.foo.local?
[23:28] <mickster04> WXZ: fine
[23:28] <IsmAvatar> jfe: pastebinit will pipe output to pastebin
[23:29] <Logan_WP> !pastebinit | jfe
[23:29] <ikonia> regeya: just cheat it and put an entry in localhost
[23:29] <Noxes> Ikonia: Well before the wireless card worked, and Lspci always displayed it as something like "Network Controller: Ralink 3090.. etc" now it's just "Network controller: device [d8dc:f8d8]" and the drivers will not work the same anymore.. Soo.. Idk.
[23:29] <ikonia> regeya: in /etc/hosts
[23:29] <regeya> ok
[23:29] <milkmiruku> wondering if anyone can help - i uninstalled the avahi-common or somesuch and now 10.10 won't boot. /var/log/syslog mentiones that cups prestart, gdm main and avahi-daemon get terminated, though avahi-daemon tries to respawn again right after. can i somehow reinstall any missing dependancies, or totally remove avahi from the system?
[23:29] <ikonia> Noxes: possibly the livecd's pci-id's are out of date
[23:30] <jfe> IsmAvatar: thanks
[23:30] <Noxes> Ikonia: It does this after install aswell.. It used to work using this livecd all the time. I just hope someone in this channel can guide me to a possible fix.. I wouldn't care what lspci was saying, aslong as the drivers worked.
[23:31] <theborger> anyone point me to a web page, that says what servers to use for apt-get?
[23:31] <ThRiX> Hi at all
[23:31] <ikonia> Noxes: are the drivers normally supplied from the aditional drivers tool or a manual install ?
[23:31] <ikonia> theborger: ubuntu selects the best servers for you at install time
[23:31] <ikonia> theborger: they should already be setup
[23:31] <Jonii> Dear god thank you everyone! I can now install Ubuntu!
[23:32] <Noxes> Ikonia: manual install.. I've followed the steps the exact same as I have before, when it worked properly.. And I've done it about 100 times in the past day.. Yet they won't work.

[23:32] <syn-ack> err
[23:32] <syn-ack> sorry about that
[23:32] <ikonia> syn-ack: stop it, you've done that gag
[23:32] <ikonia> Noxes: define doesn't work
[23:32] <syn-ack> ikonia hit the wrong key and nuked my response. It was unintentional.
[23:32] <ikonia> syn-ack: not a problem
[23:33] <syn-ack> I was going to say, ikonia: That doesn't mean that the server that were the best at install time are still the best.
[23:33] <Noxes> Ikonia: After install, adding things to blacklist and modules, I reboot.. Nothing has changed.. Clicking on the wireless icon doesn't display any wireless routers, or possible wireless connection. Ifconfig doesn't even display wlan0 or whatever anymore.

[23:33] <mickster04> theborger: apparently xinit is in the main repo, but if you are getting errors, then it seems your seem is more boerked than originally thought, what happened?
[23:33] <ikonia> theborger: can you ping that host ?
[23:34] <Noxes> Ikonia: I don't quite know.. How could I see?

[23:40] <immy> hi
[23:40] <Jonii> But all the graphs seem a bit counter-intuitive
[23:40] <YankDownUnder> d03boy, You should be able to just use: apt-get install mono-apache-server (and all the other bits)

[23:40] <mickster04> Jonii: they are quite easy to read, can you screen shot and explain what you don't understand about them?
[23:40] <theborger> ikonia, it erros out

[23:43] <theborger> ikonia, yes i can pink it
[23:43] <theborger> s/pink/ping
[23:43] <Jonii> mickster04, I tried, but "create a new partition" is a bit difficult to understand. What's that option about conjunction point(dunno if I translated that correctly), where you can select /, /tmp, /home etc
[23:43] <ikonia> Noxes42: is the module in the kernel tree ?
[23:43] <ikonia> theborger: so some networking (routing/firewalling) is blocking it on your machine, that's what you need to resolve
[23:43] <neyhay> Can someone tell me how to repair an ext4 file system?  Testdisk results: http://paste.ubuntu.com/569912/
[23:43] <ikonia> theborger: do any other package hosts error, or just security
[23:43] <mickster04> !mountpoint | Jonii
[23:43] <Jonii> Should I make the new partition "primary" or "logical"?
[23:43] <Noxes42> Ikonia: I don't quite know.. I tried "sudo modprobe rt3090sta" and no error came up.. Although it still won't connect.
[23:43] <theborger> ikonia, all of them error
[23:44] <PerfM> iight kids
[23:44] <YankDownUnder> neyhay, fsck.ext4 /dev/sdXX
[23:44] <GI_Jack> ok I created a new user and the new user works just my main account doesnt
[23:44] <mickster04> !partition | Jonii
[23:44] <ikonia> theborger: ok, so there is something wrong with your networking
[23:44] <ikonia> Noxes42: is the module loaded after you modprobed ?
[23:44] <mickster04> Jonii: better?
[23:45] <Noxes42> Ikonia: Yes.
[23:45] <WXZ> does anyone know how to get stereomix
[23:45] <WXZ> with pavucontrol?
[23:45] <ikonia> Noxes42: ok, so the module is loaded, how are you now trying to configure it
[23:45] <mickster04> basically if i understand right, you want to set the mount point as / and the rest should be fine as they are
[23:45] <mickster04> jano: ^^^^
[23:45] <Noxes42> Ikonia: I don't know..
[23:46] <ikonia> Noxes42: you must know how your setting up as you're telling me it fails when you try to connect
[23:46] <bc81> WXZ: i just go to configuration tab and choose analog stereo duplex
[23:46] <WXZ> bc81: configuration tab?
[23:46] <Noxes42> Ikonia: Oh I mean nothing comes up in ifconfig, or when I click the wireless icon..
[23:47] <WXZ> bc81: I think you're like 3 steps ahead of me
[23:47] <Noxes42> Ikonia: It's like there isn't even a wireless driver/card installed..
[23:47] <ikonia> Noxes42: show me the output of "sudo ifconfig -a" please in a pastebin
[23:47] <neyhay> YankDownUnder: output gives me this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/570829/
[23:47] <bc81> WXZ: oh, well run pavucontrol, go to configuration tab, choose stereo
[23:48] <Jonii> So, basically, I need to create three different partitions
[23:49] <itaylor57> 2usagi99
[23:49] <Noxes42> Ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/570830/
[23:49] <WXZ> bc81: yeah, I've got stereo duplex on as well
[23:49] <WXZ> but it's not recording the output
[23:49] <mickster04> Jonii: optimally, but you may not need a swap drive, and you can keep the rest in / anyway
[23:49] <YankDownUnder> neyhay, Um...and you've tried also running (as root) fsck.ext4 -p -y -f /dev/sdb1
[23:49] <PhoenixSTF> Hi guys, i goota a problem with VT6421 controler board taht gives me trouble with WD HDD and Samsung, strangedly i got another one with the same chip that doesnt give me any kind of trouble, I already tried modprobe sata_via, but no luck errors keep coming, is there any fix for the kernel?
[23:49] <ikonia> Noxes42: is the wirless card actually enabled on the kill switch, does the syslog show anything on it ?
[23:49] <bc81> WXZ: what are you recording with
[23:49] <mmka> hi, after mounting the root file system I have got a problem "udev failed to create queue file", then the system stops there
[23:49] <Noxes42> ikonia: What do you mean?
[23:49] <WXZ> I'm not recording right now, just in puvacontrol
[23:49] <Jonii> mickster04, err, now I'm confused
[23:50] <WXZ> the bar which shows intensity isn't moving
[23:50] <ikonia> Noxes42: exactly what I've just said
[23:50] <mickster04> Jonii: well what three partitions do you think you need?
[23:50] <Noxes42> ikonia: What do you mean
[23:50] <ikonia> Noxes42: exactly what I've just said
[23:50] <Noxes42> ikonia: Sorry, uhmm.
[23:50] <Jonii> Swap, root, home?
[23:50] <Noxes42> ikonia: There's no "killswitch" for the wireless card on this pc.
[23:50] <Geo> there is a channel for c++ issues
[23:50] <ikonia> Noxes42: 1.) is the wirless card physically enable, most laptops have a kill switch 2.) does the syslog show anything on the card
[23:51] <ikonia> Geo: yes
[23:51] <Jonii> But I don't know how large I should make these partitions
[23:51] <bc81> WXZ: what program is making sound at the moment?
[23:51] <Noxes42> ikonia: It's a desktop.
[23:51] <Jonii> Swap should be double my RAM, right? But I don't know how much RAM I have
[23:51] <Geo> @ikonia can u tell me the name?
[23:51] <WXZ> bc81: vlc
[23:51] <ikonia> Noxes42: that doesn't change what I've just said
[23:51] <mickster04> Jonii: how much ram do you have, you may not need swap, root and home can be just made into one, if you don't specifiy a home partition, it goes under root
[23:51] <YankDownUnder> Finding RAM: free -m
[23:51] <Jonii> Root should be 8GB, but is there a reason to make it larger?
[23:51] <Noxes42> ikonia: There's no "killswitch" on it, what so ever.
[23:52] <mickster04> Jonii: run system monitor, it tells you in there
[23:52] <ikonia> Noxes42: ok, so move onto the next thing I said
[23:52] <Noxes42> ikonia: Idk how to view the syslog. o.e
[23:52] <neyhay> YankDownUnder: not yet, reading fsck man pages
[23:52] <mickster04> Jonii: if you just make one partition with the whole space you have set aside for ubuntu, make it root, everything comes under there (except swap, but you might not need it)_
[23:52] <YankDownUnder> neyhay, You're sure the partition is ext4, ya?
[23:53] <bc81> WXZ: so , you hear sound but don't see the meter moving?  i just joined, so you'll need to give more details if possible
[23:53] <ikonia> Noxes42: it's /var/log/messages
[23:53] <Jonii> mickster04, how do I know if I need it?
[23:53] <WXZ> bc81: I hear sound, and I see the output meter moving, but I don't see the input meter moving
[23:53] <Guest93163> hello, can anybody help me with regard to openssh behind a NAT enabled router
[23:53] <WXZ> bc81: nvm, there is no input meter
[23:53] <bc81> WXZ: thats for microphones and whatnot
[23:53] <Noxes42> ikonia: What do i search for?
[23:54] <Jonii> I have 3,6GB of RAM
[23:54] <mickster04> Jonii: well how much ram do you have? if it's great than 1GB I would argue you don't need it, UNLESS you want to be able to hybernate
[23:54] <ikonia> Noxes42: read through it, see if it mentions your card, networking issues, your cards device, the kernel modules
[23:54] <mickster04> Jonii: in which case you should get by fine without swap
[23:54] <mickster04> !swap > Jonii
[23:54] <WXZ> bc81: I know, I'm trying to get what I'm hearing on the desktop be sent to the mic input
[23:54] <g_0_0> Guest93163, what is the problem?
[23:54] <WXZ> bc81: kind of mimic like I have a mic, and I'm putting it up to my stereo
[23:55] <Guest93163> i set up port triggering on 5900 to this machine, ive set up and are running openssh, i try to connect from my phone through androidvnc (it worked once) but now it says authentication failed
[23:55] <Noxes42> ikonia: Nothing.
[23:55] <mickster04> Jonii: so just set the one partition as root (/) and just press next?
[23:56] <ikonia> Noxes42: can you confirm the hardwares working within windows (I thought you said you where dual booting earlier, I could be wrong)
[23:56] <ikonia> Guest93163: androidvnc is not ssh
[23:56] <g_0_0> Guest93163, you're trying to connect to a home server?
[23:56] <Noxes42> ikonia: I am not dual booting, no.
[23:56] <drc> Jonii: personally, I do swap = ram (depends on the space available) and everything else to / (no separate / and home). I think this is what mickster04 is trying to tell you also (not to put words in his mouth)
[23:56] <Guest93163> that explains that... i also tried connectbot via ssh protocol i got client terminated connection
[23:57] <WXZ> bc81: ??
[23:57] <mickster04> drc: yup
[23:57] <ikonia> Noxes42: Hmmm, there may actually be a hardware error there if it's not being detected correctly any more
[23:57] <ikonia> Noxes42: and it's not being mentioned in the syslog
[23:57] <Jonii> mickster04, and I should use ext3, not ext4?
[23:57] <mickster04> Jonii: uhm i think ext4 is safe by now?
[23:57] <Guest93163> im trying to get commandline access to the machine to remote run scripts and to scp files to my phone
[23:57] <mickster04> Jonii: i use ext4
[23:57] <neyhay> YankDownUnder: fairly positive it was ext4.  slight possibility it was ext 3
[23:58] <ikonia> Guest93163: so ssh in on port 22
[23:58] <GI_Jack> fixed one corrupted file
[23:58] <geekbri> Guest93163: i use connectbot on my phone... if youre using SSH keys make sure on the key screen you have the one you want to use set to unlocked
[23:58] <Guest93163> you know... i think i just realised my problem
[23:58] <Noxes42> ikonia: After a few hours of the annoying errors, I just popped open the box, carefully removed the card, used a dust cleaner can thing, and replaced it.. And it still displayed the wrong device, along with not working.
[23:58] <Jonii> And not make root primary but logical? I have no idea what difference do these changes make
[23:58] <Guest93163> im triggering 5900 for vnc not 22 for ssh
[23:58] <ikonia> Noxes42: a clean doesn't mean it's working
[23:58] <Noxes42> ikonia: More than likely it is a hardware issue, sadly.
[23:58] <mickster04> Jonii: just leave those settings as they are
[23:58] <Guest93163> let me just check if i forward to 22
[23:58] <mickster04> it'll most likely work as it is
[23:58] <ikonia> Noxes42: if it used to display the correct info, and not now, it's not autoloading the moudle, and it doesn't see the card once the module is loaded and there is no mention in the syslog, it looks bad
[23:59] <YankDownUnder> neyhay, What ya get when ya "cat /etc/fstab" => view the FS used for sdb1 ?
[23:59] <Jonii> But, I guess I want to make swap partition. Like, it could be useful, and it doesn't cause me any harm to have it, right?
[23:59] <mickster04> Jonii: correct
