[00:00] <graffy> is there anyone here that was advising on my domain issue
[00:00] <KE1HA> petriborg1, LiveCD, yes I did the Alternate Install and Desktop Installs. Was a bit off-center until the install finished, but other than that was ok.
[00:00] <Dr_Willis> Mostafa:   shutdown command can take a time argument
[00:00] <petriborg1> KE1HA - SoldOut - i'm not using a live cd either, what i mean is, when you did the install connected to the hdtv, did the live cd see the hdtv?
[00:00] <tank_> checking lspci.. hold on
[00:01] <pepee> JEUS, ? I can help you
[00:01] <graffy> Well if I boot into recovery mode I can access the websites
[00:01] <graffy> What's different in recovery mode?
[00:01] <KE1HA> petriborg1, Yes, mine looked like a Giant Monitor basically.
[00:01] <petriborg1> KE1HA - SoldOut - hm ok
[00:01] <ilovefairuz> makson: check the ChrootDirectory option of openssh

[00:03] <pepee> graffy, no, it will not.

[00:04] <DGM> i just executed ubuntu-vm-builder but i forgot about the libvirt parameter... so it didnt install properly. Did it leave a file somewhere though? or does it clean up by itself

[00:05] <YankDownUnder> tank_, Check this out: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1529993
[00:05] <pepee> graffy, I don't really know exactly what it does, but it's for letting you get a root console, and/or fix some things automatically

[00:05] <graffy> pepee: when I am in recovery mode I can visit amazon.com etc. when i boot normally, I can't
[00:06] <pepee> graffy, that's interesting
[00:06] <YankDownUnder> tank_, It would appear as though you have to install "linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic
[00:06] <tank_> yep, just read that
[00:06] <graffy> pepee: i really want to solve this rather than reinstall
[00:06] <graffy> pepee: in fact now i want to solve it, then reinstall
[00:07] <pepee> graffy, probably some init config got messed up

Please check that they are accurate.  Ypi cam suppress this message by setting them explicitly: git config --global user.name "Your Name" git config --global user.e-mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[00:07] <SimonP86> but I've already set them
[00:07] <pepee> graffy, I don't know how to reconfigure the init scripts :/
[00:07] <SimonP86> so when I type git config --global user.name it displays my username
[00:07] <YankDownUnder> tank_, Since you're "hijacking" yer bro's ethernet, have you tried doing the "System/Administration/Hardware Drivers" -> to see if the system picks up the proper driver?
[00:08] <SimonP86> why isn't it being recognised?
[00:08] <qUaNtiC_> Dr_Willis: prob solved!!!
[00:08] <pepee> does anyone knows how to reconfigure the init scripts/configs?
[00:09] <tank_> yankdownunder: yeah did that already to get proprietary 3d drivers
[00:09] <ilovefairuz> SimonP86: nano ~/.gitconfig
[00:09] <KE1HA> pepee, what do you mean configs, the default rc.d's ?
[00:09] <ilovefairuz> SimonP86: if you want per repo, check $repo/.git/config
[00:10] <pepee> KE1HA, yeah
[00:10] <SoldOut> pepee: which one?
[00:10] <YankDownUnder> tank_, Yeah - and? Anything else show up aside from the graphics drivers?
[00:10] <tank_> nope.
[00:10] <tank_> nothing else
[00:10] <rooks> how to make my home dir not protected by ecryptfs? or how to make it work with nfs, since at present only it shows files from graphical shells, and from cli it acts as if not mounted, or mounted with only x but not read privileges
[00:10] <pepee> SoldOut, don't really know...
[00:10] <ilovefairuz> pepee: what exactly are you trying to change?
[00:10] <KE1HA> sudo apt-get update rc.d [package_name] runlevels
[00:10] <pepee> SoldOut, KE1HA ilovefairuz I suppose is related to this: <graffy> pepee: when I am in recovery mode I can visit amazon.com etc. when i boot normally, I can't
[00:11] <tank_> yankdownunder: anything else to try?
[00:12] <ilovefairuz> pepee: that's a networking issue, not an "init script" issue
[00:12] <Xeross> I installed ubuntu from a live cd image on a usb stick, how can I add this to my sources.list so I can enable proprietary drivers for my wireless ?
[00:12] <tank_> yankdownunder: still not picking up the wireless
[00:12] <KE1HA> pepee, that's what I would think as well, netwk issue.
[00:13] <rooks> how to make my home dir not protected by ecryptfs? or how to make it work with nfs, since at present only it shows files from graphical shells, and from cli it acts as if not mounted, or mounted with only x but not read privileges

[00:13] <Cheguerz> Cheguerz: If I use vpn pptp, is it normal for the pptp service to always be running started as root: /usr/sbin/pptp "name of VPN provider" -- nolaunchpppd. Or is it some sort of vulnerability. Thank you.
[00:13] <tank_> yankdownunder: did that
[00:14] <Tohuw> Is the @ in a BIND9 zone file just a shortcut for the FQDN the file is for? so like example.com. might have an "@ IN NS ns.example.com.", which is the same as "example.com. IN NS ns.example.com."
[00:14] <pepee> ilovefairuz, KE1HA well, there's something that just works when running on "safe mode"

[00:14] <tank_> yankdownunder: im going to attempt cutting the power completely to the laptop, someone mentioned it on the thread. if that doesnt do jack, a restart helps anyway. brb
[00:15] <leifw> it seems the ubuntu installer partitioned my disk in a strange way, such that some partitions lie off of disk boundaries, furthermore, installing freebsd on one of these partitions later, it changed the partition table (MBR) such that disk utility now sees a bunch of extra bogus partitions inside the last (extended) one.  this is obviously impossible as some are huge and therefore the sum of the partitions exceeds the size of my disk.  my qu
[00:15] <leifw> estion is, does there exist a safe way (with gparted on a livecd, I'd expect) to fix the MBR and move those partitions onto cylinder boundaries to prevent further weirdness, with, but preferably without, extra space for copying data, or is it going to be easier if I just save dpkg information and reinstall from scratch, being more careful about partitioning this time?
[00:15] <YankDownUnder> tank_, What you might wanna check is to see if the driver is "blacklisted" -> so you'd check the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf => see if it's listed there (the driver) -> if it's listed, put a # in front of it and reboot
[00:15] <ilovefairuz> pepee: that could mean a lot of things, wrong dns servers, wrong default gateway, ...
[00:15] <KE1HA> pepee, or it could be something "not working" in safe mode that allowing net connection.
[00:15] <leifw> (sorry about the gigantic message)
[00:15] <sanguisdex> if I don't have a hard NIC or a CDRom drive what's the best way to install the drivers on a broodcom Wifi  card?
[00:15] <Xeross> so what is the syntaxis for a package mirror on the local filesystem
[00:16] <maxwellian> pepee: Switch from UUIDs to device names didn't help. :\
[00:16] <YankDownUnder> sanguisdex, Use the "Hardware Drivers" utility to find the broadcom drivers and install/activate them for ya...simplest way
[00:16] <KE1HA> sanguisdex, Use a Windows Box and ICS to your linux machine for Net connection.
[00:16] <SoldOut> leifw: your partitions are a bit of a mess    probaly better to start again
[00:17] <pepee> ilovefairuz, KE1HA yeah, that's right
[00:17] <leifw> SoldOut, I was hoping that wouldn't be the answer :/
[00:17] <sanguisdex> KE1HA: ICS?
[00:17] <tank_> yankdownunder: if you're still there, it all works now. Thanks for the help!
[00:17] <KE1HA> sanguisdex, ICS = Internet Connection Share
[00:17] <YankDownUnder> tank_, Roger that.
[00:17] <leifw> SoldOut, do you know which package is most appropriate to file a bug against?
[00:17] <leifw> the installer shouldn't make unaligned partitions
[00:18] <leifw> and this is clearly avoidable with parted
[00:18] <datacrusher> anyone managed to play runescape on ubuntu with HD ?
[00:19] <pepee> maxwellian, try removing mountall or updating from the root console in "safe mode"
[00:19] <sanguisdex> I have no way to connect the machies to the a network at the time, and Ubuntu will not recognize a Live USB as a live disk repo source (even mounting the ISO has not worked)
[00:19] <SoldOut> leifw: it really depends on what state the drive was in(partition wise ) when you first began
[00:19] <leifw> SoldOut, new drive

[00:20] <ilovefairuz> kentr: did it ever work before?
[00:20] <pepee> maxwellian, IIRC that was a common problem in lucid
[00:20] <maxwellian> pepee: You're saying I should rm the mountall script?  And what do you mean "update" from the root console?  Update what?
[00:20] <KE1HA> sanguisdex, Well, that's a bit of a problem, if you have "no" internet connection capability, it's gonna be tough to sort that out.
[00:21] <kentr> ilovefairuz: not on this machine.  But no problem from other machines to the same FTP server.
[00:21] <Chiggins> Hey room, I'm running into problems with my graphics card.  It was working two days ago, but yesterday when I booted ubuntu, it needed to run in low graphics mode, and started with these errors: http://chiggins.pastebin.com/NbJ7n7ri  When I go back to the login prompt, and run startx, my graphics are back, but no acceleration
[00:21] <sanguisdex> KE1HA: I have an internet connection just not a working nic on the machine
[00:21] <ilovefairuz> kentr: what client are you using? have you tried other clients?
[00:21] <james1071> has anyone used excel with crossover (need it for work)?
[00:21] <KE1HA> sanguisdex, You only have the One machine ?
[00:22] <pepee> maxwellian, nope, remove the "mountall" package, or execute: apt-get update; apt-get upgrade
[00:22] <SoldOut> leifw: Im a bit confused , you installed ubuntu from a live cd on to a new drive then went to freebsd?
[00:22] <sanguisdex> no I have the one I am using now
[00:22] <maxwellian> pepee: Can it operate without mountall?
[00:22] <kentr> Using the /usr/bin/ftp on Ubuntu Server 9
[00:22] <KE1HA> sanguisdex, then you should be able to ICS to your other box I would think.
[00:23] <kentr> ilovefairuz: Using the /usr/bin/ftp on member:Ubuntu Server 9
[00:23] <KE1HA> Wither though Wireless / Switch / Hub or Crossover cable.
[00:23] <pepee> maxwellian, try updating your system first
[00:23] <dublinchore> what is the best way to access linux files from the windows partition?  i see lots of ext2/ext3 drivers.  but ubuntu is ext4.  would these still work?
[00:23] <KE1HA> dublinchore, yes, theall will acees, but the "best way" is through Samba.
[00:23] <ritztech> is there a way to see a history of what command was typed from within a website /var/www/html/site.php
[00:23] <kentr> ilovefairuz:  as far as I know, it could be a firewall issue.  It's finding the correct IP for the server...
[00:24] <ritztech> im using escapeshellcmd
[00:24] <pepee> maxwellian, wait, I thnk I'm wrong
[00:24] <sanguisdex> I really would just like to know how to get packagem manger to recognize the mounted ISO as the live CD
[00:24] <SoldOut> dublinchore: in short  no    ext4 is still  very new
[00:24] <Lizzard88> is there an irc channel for wine?
[00:24] <ritztech> checking to see why the bash script wont invoke my next command
[00:24] <ilovefairuz> kentr: try filezilla or gftp ?
[00:25] <maxwellian> pepee: Phew, good thing I'm not quick on the trigger. ;)
[00:25] <KE1HA> sanguisdex, if the Package manger has not already recognized it, it's not going too as it's currently built.
[00:25] <graffy> THIS DESERVES ALL CAPS. AFTER FIVE HOURS OF HAIR PULLING I FIGURED OUT THE MYSTERY DNS PROBLEM!!!!!!!

[00:26] <hiexpo> evening all
[00:27] <maxwellian> pepee: So what do you think you were wrong about?  I'm assuming update/upgrade is probably okay to do, but I shouldn't remove mountall?
[00:27] <z0r0> how do I kill all child and subchild processes of a process?

[00:29] <z0r0> KE1HA: dosnt that kill all processes that match the name/pid what about their subprocesses?
[00:29] <z0r0> KE1HA: err child processes
[00:29] <KE1HA> if your not mounting all yout /dev drives, no need to worry abt plymouth, as it wont be there.
[00:30] <ilovefairuz> hiexpo: you can set the label using applications > system tools > disk utility

[00:39] <SoldOut> maxwellian: press shift key before booting
[00:39] <z0r0> maxwellian: sorry. didnt read that.
[00:39] <maxwellian> SoldOut: Does that just bring up the Grub menu?  Because that menu already comes up.
[00:39] <KE1HA> Chiggins, Do you have the restricted ati drivers installed ?
[00:39] <KE1HA> Chiggins, there's also a bug in launchpad that talks about it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/570228
[00:40] <maxwellian> z0r0: No prob, I appreciate any help. :)
[00:40] <ylmf> 大家好
[00:40] <Guest23909> i never could follow the idea of useing evolution over thunderbird and empathy over pidgin. even pino would be a better choice than gwibber
[00:40] <Chiggins> KE1HA, Yeah they are installed
[00:40] <maco> !cn | ylmf
[00:40] <Oer> KEISHA i read that also, sudo /usr/share/ati/fglrx-uninstall.sh should do the trick ?
[00:40] <mom> is there a ubuntu openoffice help channel?

[00:41] <git__> how stable is 10.04?
[00:41] <mom> or should i uninstall openoffice then reinstall?
[00:41] <maxwellian> pepee: This would only be a temporary change for the boot I'd be attempting, right?  I wouldn't have to go back and change it later if it didn't work?
[00:41] <git__> mom?
[00:41] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: lshw -C network - http://pastebin.com/MHJ9FE4m
[00:42] <SoldOut> git__: how stable???
[00:42] <pepee> maxwellian, yeah, it's temporary
[00:42] <maxwellian> SoldOut: Thanks.
[00:42] <mom> git__, what?
[00:42] <maxwellian> pepee: Okay, will try that.
[00:42] <Lizzard88> is there an irc channel for wine?
[00:42] <kentr> ilovefairuz:  Ah, maybe.  I'm not that familiar with server logs.
[00:42] <Oer> git__ my uptime is 2 days, due to a kernel update, else 24/7 no problem.
[00:42] <hiexpo> ok open it with term but not able to change it
[00:42] <pepee> maxwellian, again, remove "splash" and "quiet", add "init=/bin/bash"
[00:42] <pepee> maxwellian, from there, update your system
[00:42] <Guest23909> git_: snapshot is delayed, so maybe you should wait. for me its fine
[00:43] <git__> oer, have u try copying a file that's 5GB or above?
[00:43] <ylmf> 我要走了。
[00:43] <pepee> maxwellian, do you know how to connect through the console?
[00:43] <ylmf> 再见
[00:43] <git__> i'm still on 9.10
[00:43] <mom> help? my daughter needs the printer to work in openoffice
[00:43] <maxwellian> pepee: I've already updated my system, I don't think that's going to make a difference.
[00:43] <z0r0> maxwellian: would booting in --single help at all?
[00:43] <Oer> git__ no, should that be any problem you know of ?
[00:43] <maxwellian> z0r0: Don't know, what is that?  What does it mean to "boot in --single"?
[00:44] <git__> oer, on 9.10, it was, i don't want to switch to 10.04 and encounter same prob
[00:44] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: I see the interface is there but disabled, how would I enable it
[00:44] <ilovefairuz> Xeross: try flipping the kill switch? also check: rfkill list
[00:44] <maxwellian> pepee: I'm fine at the command line, yup.
[00:44] <DesiArnez6> Does anyone know how to open alsamixer?
[00:44] <pepee> maxwellian, ok, that's good
[00:44] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: Kill switch ?
[00:44] <Oer> git__, if you copy a 5 gb file from ext3/ext4 to a fat32 usb hdd, yes, you get a error....
[00:45] <ilovefairuz> Xeross: a button usually on laptops to turn on/off wireless
[00:45] <git__> oer, 9.10, system froze, i had to reboot, luckily, i updated kernel to 2.6.32
[00:45] <ilovefairuz> Xeross: check the output of: rfkill list
[00:45] <maxwellian> pepee: What's the init="/bin/bash" part?  That doesn't actually override the init process, does it?
[00:45] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: Seems somehow that button is wired to bleutooth now :/
[00:46] <z0r0> maxwellian: when you remove quiet and others add --single and it will boot in single user mode.
[00:46] <pepee> maxwellian, yes, it does. it will give you a root console
[00:46] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: Any way to enable it through ubuntu instead of through my keyboard ?
[00:46] <Oer> git__, just finished creating a dummy file of 5 gb, moment pls.
[00:46] <DesiArnez6> Does anyone know how to open alsamixer?
[00:46] <Jinxzs> !pm | Jinxzs
[00:46] <ilovefairuz> Xeross: dude, pastebin rfkill list
[00:46] <cast> mom: you could get lpr working and just send the openoffice print jobs through that
[00:46] <pepee> DesiArnez6, from the command line, alsamixergui
[00:47] <pepee> or alsamixer
[00:47] <mom> cast, its a network printer
[00:47] <maxwellian> pepee: I can get a root console already, using the previous kernel.  What would I do with it?
[00:47] <cast> mom: if you need a workaround for now, you could print to a pdf file then open and print that
[00:47] <maxwellian> pepee: Like I said, the system is updated, I don't think using a different kernel would affect whether it's updated?
[00:47] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: Soft blocked: http://pastebin.com/q3GnAYLG
[00:47] <mom> cast, abiword works its just openoffice that doesnt dont know why
[00:47] <z0r0> maxwellian: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/grub-boot-into-single-user-mode/
[00:48] <pepee> maxwellian, in that case, what I've said isn't useful
[00:48] <git__> is there USB problem in 10.04?
[00:48] <ilovefairuz> Xeross: rfkill unblock wlan
[00:48] <DesiArnez6> pepee, thats what I thought I did last time, just typed it in the Terminal and I get:   cannot open mixer: No such file or directory
[00:48] <xieming> I am in China, is a rookie
[00:48] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: Still soft-blocked
[00:48] <Oer> git__, no problem copying a file.
[00:48] <xae8koo> How do I install gnome 3?
[00:49] <git__> oer, thanks bud!
[00:49] <Oer> git__, why do you ask ?
[00:49] <pepee> maxwellian, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1467638
[00:49] <ilovefairuz> Xeross: right-click on network icon and enable?
[00:49] <git__> oer, i had prob in 9.10 when doing it, it's rather consistent and drives me nuts
[00:49] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: D'oh
[00:49] <Again617> HI, I'm getting a popup telling me I have 486 MB free on my home folder but Nautilus tells me that I have 40 GB free
[00:50] <Again617> the command df -h tells me that the partition is 55% full
[00:50] <Again617> so I am wondering why I would get the error telling m that my drive is almost full?
[00:50] <juboba> hi
[00:50] <cast> Again617: is 45% 40GB or 486MB
[00:50] <Oer> git__, backup any data, and do a fresh install 10.04 , my best advise to wipe out current problems. :-)
[00:50]  * dddw trusten
[00:50] <Again617> 45% should be 40GB
[00:51] <ilovefairuz> Xeross: pastebin lspci
[00:51] <git__> hehe
[00:51] <juboba> does anybody know a terminal that I can "stick" in my desktop (on fluxbox) somethin like conky
[00:51] <xieming> 大家好，
[00:51] <maco> !cn | xieming
[00:51] <mobodo> say you have two dozen hard drives that are about to go outside their warranty period, and you suspect that a few of them are malfunctioning, what would be a good way to proceed to test them all, get accurate results and not go crazy?
[00:51] <Oer> git__, your current install, is it a upgrade from 9.04 ?
[00:51] <ilovefairuz> juboba: try something like guake or tilda, slides down
[00:51] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: I said D'oh as in yep, that's it it works now
[00:52] <mom> cast, im trying a complete removal of openoffice writer and reinstalling it
[00:52] <juboba> I've tried guake
[00:52] <ilovefairuz> Xeross: haha great, well done then
[00:52] <juboba> I'll try tilda
[00:52] <kestas> mobodo: check the smart data
[00:52] <maxwellian> pepee: Yup, saw that one.  Seems more specific to a USB drive though.
[00:52] <gras5i> hi.
[00:52] <Craig_Dem> You can embed a terminal into your desktop using compiz.
[00:52] <hiexpo> juboba,  you must be using the new bt4r1 huh
[00:52] <kestas> mobodo: otherwise probably not malfunctioning v badly
[00:52] <mobodo> kestas: smart is fine on all of them
[00:52] <maco> Craig_Dem: you cant run fluxbox and compiz simultaneously though
[00:52] <juboba> wuz that?
[00:52] <git__> oer, fresh 9.10 install
[00:52] <maco> Craig_Dem: only one window manager at a time
[00:52] <mobodo> kestas: I have a raid with 5 drives that malfunctions once in a while, like once a week
[00:53] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: Funny how an advanced programmer and power user of both linux servers and windows can't find a simple switch
[00:53] <leifw> SoldOut, nope
[00:53] <leifw> (sorry for the delay)
[00:53] <mobodo> smart is fine on all of the drives
[00:53] <Craig_Dem> Oh well then. You could try devilspie.
[00:53] <hiexpo> juboba,  fluxbox you must be using backtrack4 r1 right?
[00:53] <juboba> no man, slackware =P
[00:53] <kestas> mobodo: whether you want them replaced or just want to fix the problem youll need to narrow down the cause
[00:54] <leifw> I bought a new drive, made a live usb, installed the new drive, booted the usb, selected "manually select partitions", selected some sizes, and installed
[00:54] <hiexpo> juboba,  ok thats not supported here go to !slackware
[00:54] <juboba> hiexpo hahahaah
[00:55] <juboba> humanity to others =)
[00:55] <ilovefairuz> Xeross: it's like that missing = in an if conditional that flips it all around, haha
[00:55] <hiexpo> !fluxbox
[00:55] <DesiArnez6> When I type "alsamixer" in the Terminal, now I get "cannot open mixer: No such file or directory" ? Can someone help me get my sound back?
[00:55] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: Hah, talk about major headaches, spent hours of debugging just because of typos and alike
[00:56] <mom> cast, it is exporting blank pages to pdf
[00:56] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: by the way seems wireless disables on every reboot any way to make it enabled by default
[00:56] <xae8koo> IS it impossible to run gnome-shell and compiz?
[00:56] <aeon-ltd> xae8koo: no
[00:56] <hiexpo> xae8koo,  no
[00:56] <maxwellian> pepee: For the record, this one: http://georgia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9683503 is very similar to the problem I'm having.  I haven't tried the suggestions there because it seemed less than conclusive...
[00:56] <ilovefairuz> Xeross: try putting 'rfkill unblock wlan' in /etc/rc.local ... could work
[00:56] <xae8koo> What if you need several desktops?
[00:57] <xae8koo> I think my ubuntu is strange
[00:57] <hiexpo> xae8koo,  i have 4
[00:57] <xae8koo> What is the recommended course of action?
[00:57] <Dayin> I'm stuck midway through installation of the alternate install of 9.1 Karmic Koala. Using Raid 5, on a hardware raid, I get to the partition stage and nothing is showing up. My only options are undo and finish, but no drives appear. Ideas?
[00:57] <DesiArnez6> When I type "alsamixer" in the Terminal, now I get "cannot open mixer: No such file or directory" ? Can someone help me get my sound back?
[00:57] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: It's disabled with the little right-click checkmark enable wireless, rfblock doesn't seem to affect that
[00:57] <pepee> maxwellian, sorry, I wasn't in my machine
[00:58] <hiexpo> xae8koo,  i don't know that there is one just run it
[00:58] <ilovefairuz> Xeross: actually they are supposed to be the same but yeah
[00:58] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: indeed supposed to be it seems
[00:58] <xae8koo> Is there any purpose in reinstalling ubuntu?
[00:59] <hazard> Anybody happen to have installed sirfmon?
[00:59] <hiexpo> xae8koo,  what do you mean    > reinstalling ubuntu be more specific please
[00:59] <Xeross> ilovefairuz: So isn't there some kind of config setting that gets saved
[00:59] <DesiArnez6> When I type "alsamixer" in the Terminal, now I get "cannot open mixer: No such file or directory" ? Can someone help me get my sound back?
[00:59] <hazard> I'm trying to get gpsd and kismet to play nice together, but sirfmon doesn't appear to be in any of the repositories I'm familiar with.
[01:00] <ilovefairuz> Xeross: perhaps a gconf value, yes, but I don't use network manager in the machine i'm using now, try searching in gconf-editor
[01:00] <xae8koo> hiexpo: I feel my ubuntu is messy, I have a lot of dumb packages. I think it got upgraded from some previous version. So would a reinstall be likley to make it more usable? I prefer debian, because it is ligther...
[01:01] <hiexpo> xae8koo,  just do a fresh install of 9.10
[01:01] <DGM> 10 all the way :)
[01:01] <feydr> just tried upgrading to maverick and gdm doesn't want to start w/ati -- 6~6~6~
[01:01] <xae8koo> hiexpo: I am on 10.04
[01:02] <DGM> same here, it boots faster then 9 for me
[01:02] <Dayin> On the 9.1 alternate install CD, should I assume it has the drivers to detect a hardware Raid? It seems to notice the presence of a SATA Raid, but when I get to the partitioner stage of installation no drives appear. Ideas?
[01:02] <hiexpo> xae8koo,  well to each is own reinstall 10.04 than but i prefer 9.10 myself
[01:03] <Taev> in what directory will i find the KDE desktop wallpaper .jpgs?
[01:03] <xae8koo> I really want to have 10.10
[01:03] <xae8koo> hiexpo: I like the encrypted things and such
[01:04] <booi> Anybody know if only the 32-bit version of memtest is on the ubuntu live cd?
[01:04] <cage_raphel> Taev: you can try checking the ~/.kde/share/confige/kdedesktoprc file
[01:04] <booi> it's only testing 3.3GB of memory.
[01:04] <hiexpo> xae8koo,  10.10 isnot out yet and the encrypted things   haha
[01:04] <z0r0> where are the configuration files to edit the default session startup programs for gnome?
[01:05] <Taev> nope not there
[01:05] <QaDeS_> anyone of you using ruby on 10.4?
[01:05] <50UAAHXBS> idfa
[01:05] <xae8koo> hiexpo: I know... But I am getting a bunch of boxes when i move out, so I think I will work with gentoo and debian as well as ubuntu. What annoys me, is that Ubuntu ONE hasn't worked for me. 64bit, the app freezes every day
[01:06] <xae8koo> hiexpo: time*
[01:06] <ilovefairuz> Xeross: /system/networking/wireless/networks ? (in gconf-editor)
[01:06] <ZykoticK9> z0r0, i'm imaging it's probably not a "file" but stored in gconf somewhere.  System / Preferences / Startup Applications -- or you could install BUM if you want more boot control.
[01:06] <ilovefairuz> !details | QaDeS_
[01:06] <Kaie`> how do i change the owner of a folder from myself to root?
[01:06] <hiexpo> xae8koo,  switch to 32 bit it is better
[01:06] <Kaie`> im assuming some sort of chmod command
[01:06] <trism> z0r0: they're in ~/.config/autostart and /etc/xdg/autostart
[01:06] <xae8koo> hiexpo: Not as efficent...
[01:06] <cage_raphel> z0r0: i would suggest u follow these links.. http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-301631.html and http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/GNOME.html
[01:06] <ilovefairuz> Kaie`: chown -R user:group foldername
[01:07] <pepee> maxwellian, tried removing "splash" and "quiet"?
[01:07] <Kaie`> thanks ilovefairuz. ill try it
[01:07] <hiexpo> xae8koo,  i run 32 bit and i can do anything that a 64 does probably faster
[01:07] <ZykoticK9> hiexpo, but slower ;)
[01:07] <ilovefairuz> z0r0: use system > preferences > startup
[01:07] <Taev> i downloaded this really cool wallpaper, but its not in /usr/share/wallpaper like the default ones
[01:07] <xae8koo> hiexpo: You can't run 8 GB rams...

[01:08] <cage_raphel> Taev: did u check it in the downloads folder ?
[01:08] <Guest29246> hi, my dell laptop has a monitor (vga) output port. It works fine while running Windows XP, but when I boot into Ubuntu I can't get it to output to the monitor. I searched google but couldn't find anything that worked. Any suggestions?
[01:08] <ZykoticK9> xae8koo, with PAE you could
[01:08] <hiexpo> xae8koo,  who needs  8 gigs or 4 geez why have a hard drive
[01:08] <Taev> nm i found it
[01:08] <DGM> xae8koo: 32 bit will take up to 4 gb ram
[01:08] <QaDeS_> i ran "gem install rvm", which should put an rvm-install script into the PATH, but it doesn't. what am i doing wrong?
[01:09] <xae8koo> hiexpo: I have 4 GB in my laptop, because I recently voulentarly became unemployed
[01:09] <maxwellian> pepee: Haven't rebooted yet, will let you know as soon as I do.
[01:09] <xae8koo> DGM: Minus the video cards memory and such
[01:09] <DGM> xae8koo: on windows yes
[01:09] <hiexpo> xae8koo,  you dont need 4 gig ram
[01:09] <hiexpo> 2 gig is plenty
[01:09] <Dayin> On the 9.1 alternate install CD, should I assume it has the drivers to detect a hardware Raid? It seems to notice the presence of a SATA Raid, but when I get to the partitioner stage of installation no drives appear. Ideas?
[01:09] <pepee> maxwellian, that's for getting kernel messages, so you can see what's happening
[01:10] <maxwellian> pepee: Right, that looks useful.
[01:10] <ilovefairuz> QaDeS_: depends on where did it place the files, link to original package?
[01:10] <ZykoticK9> hiexpo, i'd say you don't do much virtualization ;)  there are certainly uses for 4GB or more (much more) of memory.
[01:10] <maxwellian> pepee: Does it log that sort of thing?
[01:10] <pepee> maxwellian, yeah, /var/log/syslog, or the command dmesg
[01:10] <DGM> i'd have to agree with hiexpo.. 4 gig is more then enough unless you do some really crazy stuff.. even with virtualisation
[01:10] <pepee> maxwellian, try: dmesg | tail
[01:10] <DGM> i've done with 2 gb for years
[01:10] <ritztech> i got an interesting one but the darn php channel is full
[01:10] <xae8koo> hiexpo: Rigth now I am using 2104 MB ram
[01:11] <cast> you may need 4GB
[01:11] <pepee> ****  maxwellian, try: dmesg | less
[01:11] <cast> ever try editing high res photography in the gimp?
[01:11] <DGM> my server with 2 virtual machines, one windows and one linux only uses 1.2 gb
[01:11] <Kaie`> can set fstab to mount two seperate UUIDs to the same folder as a mount point?
[01:11] <DGM> atm
[01:11] <ilovefairuz> Kaie`: no
[01:11] <Mr_Sonoma> any ideas on a proc mail error: procmail[27233]: Unknown user ? the user it references is the username in my email and not my user name on ubuntu. Is it looking for these 2 to be the same?
[01:11] <ilovefairuz> Kaie`: why would you even want to do that?
[01:11] <hiexpo> why you useing 2108 ram did you not partion your hd
[01:12] <Kaie`> sharing of files on the USB HDD
[01:12] <cast> due to PAE you can have quite a lot more than 4GB accessable in a 32bit install, for what its worth
[01:12] <DGM> using only 930 mb on my desktop atm
[01:12] <xae8koo> hiexpo: Just firefox, opera, skype, emesene, and spotify
[01:12] <hiexpo> forgot swap huh
[01:12] <xae8koo> I use  8MB swap
[01:12] <DGM> xae8koo: then theres something seriously wrong :P
[01:12] <DGM> xae8koo: i got a crapload open on here and i'm only using 920
[01:13] <hiexpo> i agree
[01:13] <DGM> on a 64 bit system though
[01:13] <FrozenFire[work]> Is there a way to stop any window from stealing workspace focus? I have Firefox and Thunderbird configured to use a Master Password, so when they start up, they pop up the password dialogue, which steals focus, making startup a real hassle.
[01:13] <hiexpo> same here
[01:13] <maxwellian> pepee: Checking it out now.
[01:13] <xae8koo> DGM: I know, I am running servers I don't know what serves
[01:13] <DGM> xae8koo: try the top command
[01:13] <xae8koo> Hence why I want to reinstall
[01:13] <DGM> it will tell you
[01:13] <xae8koo> top is like htop rigth?
[01:13] <DesiArnez6> When I type "alsamixer" in the Terminal, now I get "cannot open mixer: No such file or directory" ? Can someone help me get my sound back?
[01:13] <DGM> i dont know htop.. so i cant tell ya :P
[01:13] <pepee> maxwellian, there are some more logs: /var/log/syslog.1 /var/log/syslog.2.gz etc
[01:14] <hiexpo> i am useing 58 percent of 2 gigs ram and trust me i have stuff running
[01:14] <QaDeS_> ilovefairuz, it put them into the rubygems /bin, which is kinda normal. but after a vanilla install of my system, i'd also expect this path to be in my PATH, or the executables to be linked to /usr/bin. neither seems to have happened :o(
[01:14] <pepee> maxwellian, and /var/log/dmesg.1 /var/log/dmesg.2.gz ...
[01:14] <DGM> xae8koo:  hye seems so.. only top is simpler
[01:14] <xae8koo> DGM: Opera uses 23%, then firefox with 4,3
[01:14] <pepee> maxwellian, I gtg, I'll be back in a couple minutes
[01:14] <maxwellian> pepee: K, thanks.
[01:14] <ilovefairuz> QaDeS_: just append it to your path in .bash_profile, no big deal
[01:15] <hiexpo> xae8koo,  you have a prob there somedwhere
[01:15] <jasonwryan> xae8koo: htop is an interactive version of top...
[01:15] <Mr_Sonoma> any ideas on a proc mail error: procmail[27233]: Unknown user (when using mutt)? the user it references is the username in my email and not my user name on ubuntu. Is it looking for these 2 to be the same?
[01:15] <hiexpo> opera islight weight
[01:16] <ilovefairuz> QaDeS_: temporarily you can do: export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/whatever/bin
[01:17] <spajderix> hi
[01:17] <hiexpo> i hate to imagine what your cpu is doing
[01:17] <xae8koo> hiexpo: I know, firefox tends to use 100% of my cpu, wich leads to my computer becomign quite hot after a nigth
[01:18] <DGM> chrome :>
[01:18] <DGM> or chromium if you dont like google branding
[01:18] <hiexpo> xae8koo,  lapppy
[01:19] <Kaie`> i cant get this second HDD to mount to a folder
[01:19] <Kaie`> seriously bumming me out
[01:19] <DGM> Kaie`: whats the exact message it gives you?
[01:19] <hiexpo> i have 2 cpus running around 50 %
[01:20] <Kaie`> DGM, error mount: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with mount only root can mount /dev/sdb1 on /home/kaie/usbsharetwo
[01:20] <xae8koo> hiexpo: yes, a Lenovo.  Can someone help me get my sound back?
[01:20] <Kaie`> DGM, Dr_Willis im mounting through FSTAB on boot up
[01:20] <Dr_Willis> basix-:  both can use bash - so they would be identical
[01:20] <DGM> hiexpo: i got a hexacore.. and all cores 1-3% usage :P
[01:20] <QaDeS_> ilovefairuz, i know. just wanted to point out the installation doesn't work as expected. also, i think ubuntu/debian maintainers could make their life easier by integrating rubygems into apt* instead of re-packaging all the gems as deb ;o)
[01:21] <DGM> Kaie`: have you tried manual mounting with the mount command?
[01:21] <radar3d_> anyone know of a good program for downloading toutube videos in ubuntu?
[01:21] <carolinae> hi guys. i bought a usb microphone port for my laptop. comments on newegg said it was ubuntu-friendly. nothing happens when i plug it in. can anyone help?
[01:21] <ianwizard> If I'm using dd to cut a partition out of a disk image, and fdisk says that the partition starts at sector 63, should I do skip=63, or skip=62?
[01:21] <basix-> is bash a program?
[01:21] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:   so it mounts at boot time? whats teh fstab line?
[01:21] <radar3d_> *youtube
[01:21] <Dr_Willis> !bash | basix-
[01:21] <Dr_Willis> basix-:  bash is the default shell.
[01:21] <Dr_Willis> basix-:  you may want to spend a few hrs reading some command line tutorials.
[01:21] <Kaie`> i have another USB HDD that mounts to another folder via fstab. so i copied that line changed the UUID and the mount folder then gave root ownership over the mount folder
[01:21] <basix-> Dr_Willis, ok the link with that message is a good place to start?
[01:22] <cast> carolinae: check dmesg output
[01:22] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, UUID=7E7A62467A61FAF3 /home/kaie/USBShareTWO ntfs uid=root,gid=users,umask=0000,utf8=true 0 0
[01:22] <marcelo> hola
[01:22] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  why are you using uid=root and gid=users ? those make no sence to me.
[01:22] <hiexpo> DGM,  same here i am on a simple lappy compac  and can do anything those big mamas do   :)
[01:22] <Kaie`> the other HDD uses tthat same line... with a different UUID and folder
[01:22] <ritztech> if i execute a bash script and it fails or doesnt execute something is there in like var/logs to see output
[01:22] <ilovefairuz> QaDeS_: using ruby gem is not encouraged in debian/ubuntu communities which prefer to use dpkg/apt for  all kinds of packages
[01:22] <marcelo> este foro es en español?
[01:22] <Dr_Willis> uid and gid need a # last i checked. and i cant imagine why you would want to use root and users as the info.
[01:23] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, i have no idea. its a line i copied ones.
[01:23] <hiexpo> !es | mar
[01:23] <hiexpo> oops
[01:23] <radar3d_> anyone know of a good program for downloading youtube videos in ubuntu?
[01:23] <Kaie`> ones = once
[01:23] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  example from my system -->   UUID=779265E2127472CA /media/sdi1/ntfs-3g users 0 0
[01:23] <ilovefairuz> radar3d_: youtube-dl
[01:23] <hiexpo> radar3d_,  youtube-dl
[01:23] <Dr_Willis> silly spaces messed up
[01:24] <Craig_Dem> You don't need a program, the video is saved to a temp directory.
[01:24] <ianwizard> radar3d_: http://www.kissyoutube.com/  not an app, but a great site for it.
[01:24] <carolinae> cast: here is the output of dmesg|tail after i unplug then replug the usb device: http://pastebin.com/ARWq6JDB
[01:24] <jasonwryan> radar3d_: youtube-dl? or just cp /tmp/Flash* /your/directory
[01:24] <Craig_Dem> Just copy and paste.
[01:24] <maxwellian> +1 youtube-dl, works great and is easy.
[01:24] <radar3d_> I'll give it a try
[01:24] <hiexpo> Craig_Dem,  only if you watch it
[01:24] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, so you think i should just take out uid and gid?
[01:24] <Craig_Dem> Well I don't download random videos.
[01:24] <hiexpo> radar3d_,  one sec
[01:24] <hiexpo> hold on
[01:24] <carolinae> cast: only the last 5 lines are relevant. the first 5 are from doing the same thing a few seconds earlier.
[01:25] <bsmith093> is there a tool to make a bit for bit copy of a windows partition on another drive and store it as an iso
[01:25] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  well #1 - they look WRONG to me.. and #2 i cant imagine why you need the  uid=root anyway..
[01:25] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, is your line a USB HDD that mounts to a folder?
[01:25] <Dr_Willis> bsmith093:  how many GB are yiou talking about? wont do much good to make a 300gb ISO file. :)
[01:25] <ilovefairuz> bsmith093: 'dd' will make a bit for bit copy but that makes it will end up in the native partition format (NTFS)
[01:25] <cast> carolinae: so have you tried using it?
[01:25] <hiexpo> radar3d_,  you need this one    youtube-dl_2010.07.22-1~karmic_all.deb
[01:25] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  usb or internal dosent matter.
[01:25] <ianwizard> bsmith093: use dd, it makes an img, not an iso. but that's what you want
[01:25] <ilovefairuz> bsmith093: iso has a different file system
[01:26] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  it mounts to /media/sdi1  yes..
[01:26] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, should i leave the bit about utf8 and umask?
[01:26] <radar3d_> hiexpo, I just did sudo apt-get install youtube-dl and it installed
[01:26] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  the spaces are messed up on my example -> UUID=779265E2127472CA /media/sdi1 ntfs-3g users 0 0
[01:26] <bsmith093> ok but i dont need the whole drive obiouslky just the part with actul data. will dd copy only the data or 300 gb worth of zeros as well?
[01:26] <radar3d_> not sure how to use it since it is not in my apps
[01:26] <ilovefairuz> bsmith093: you you're tying to make a live windows cd, google it, you'll find some tools around
[01:26] <hiexpo> radar3d_,  that won't work
[01:26] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  start with teh basics.. and see if it works..
[01:27] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  then read up on NTFS-3g and see what optiosn you may want to use
[01:27] <ianwizard> bsmith093: all of it, but there are apps that will compress it.
[01:27] <MarkSS> Why am I not able to drag my current active window off another screen to another workspace?  Ubuntu normally allows me to do this by default.  Why not now?
[01:27] <bsmith093> i just need every bit of data off this drive before it dies completely
[01:27] <carolinae> cast: well yes, i open System > Preferences > Sound and it doesn't appear as a device.
[01:27] <bazhang> radar3d_, its command line
[01:27] <hiexpo> radar3d_,  copt the file name i just posted and google ifand download it
[01:27] <bsmith093> so is there a disk cloner that will ignore frespace
[01:27] <ianwizard> bsmith093: dd | gzip
[01:27] <QaDeS_> ilovefairuz, then don't package a broken version of rubygems. i kinda understand the argument, but it's like not allowing firefox users to install plugins from within the app.
[01:28] <bazhang> radar3d_, you might instead try video download helper a firefox addon
[01:28] <cast> use ddrescue instead of dd
[01:28] <Dr_Willis> bsmith093:  fsarchiver can do that to some degree
[01:28] <ianwizard> bsmith093: or google for one that will skip the blanks
[01:28] <hiexpo> bazhang,  i don't work
[01:28] <hiexpo> ^it
[01:28] <bsmith093> how well will gzip compress 300 gb of free space
[01:28] <bazhang> hiexpo, sure it does.
[01:28] <Dr_Willis> bsmith093:  dd it to a image file.. and you can mount the image file. No need to do an 'iso' inless you are going to burn to optical disk
[01:28] <MarkSS> Why am I not able to drag my current active window off another screen to another workspace?  Ubuntu normally allows me to do this by default.  Why not now?
[01:28] <Dr_Willis> bsmith093:  in theory a WHOLE lot. if its all 0's :)
[01:28] <Kaie`> alright Dr_Willis i took that bit out. it was just something i saw laying around in some info on mounting HDDs to folders for samba sharing. that line works on the other drive. so i like i said i just copied it
[01:28] <ilovefairuz> QaDeS_: firefox add-ons are installed in user profiles, unlike ruby gems
[01:29] <bsmith093> is there a gui to dd to an img
[01:29] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  i dont see how it works for that one either.
[01:29] <ianwizard> MarkSS: you usually don't need to repeat yourself so soon.
[01:29] <radar3d_> hiexpo, no joy on googling that
[01:29] <ilovefairuz> bsmith093: check ghostzilla
[01:29] <bsmith093> thanks
[01:29] <hiexpo> bazhang,  let me see
[01:29] <hiexpo> radar3d_,  one sec
[01:30] <ianwizard> ilovefairuz: isn't it clonezilla
[01:30] <Kaie`> oh now i got a different error
[01:30] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, Unprivileged user can not mount NTFS block devices using the external FUSE
[01:30] <Kaie`> library. Either mount the volume as root, or rebuild NTFS-3G with integrated
[01:30] <Kaie`> FUSE support and make it setuid root.
[01:30] <ilovefairuz> ianwizard:  bsmith093: correct, it's clonezilla
[01:30] <bsmith093> yes thanks
[01:31] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  and how are you trying to mount it?
[01:31] <hiexpo> radar3d_,  ok yep your right no google on that one i have it and it only 27 kb's you want it
[01:31] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  what command?
[01:31] <Kaie`> just in fstab.
[01:31] <Frankiitaa> which program can use to make a dvd video from a video ts folder like nero
[01:31] <Kaie`> so it automatically does it at boot
[01:32] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  so you rebooted and it said that?
[01:32] <Kaie`> yeah
[01:32] <QaDeS_> ilovefairuz, gems install into ~/.gem by default...
[01:32] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  and whats your exact fstab entry for it now?
[01:32] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, one sec
[01:32] <xae8koo> My Ubuntu One client freezes every time I launch it
[01:32] <xae8koo> any advice?
[01:32] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  and you can test without rebooting via the 'sudo mount -a' command
[01:33] <ilovefairuz> QaDeS_: not when running as root
[01:33] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, UUID=7E7A62467A61FAF3 /home/kaie/USBShareTWO ntfs users,umask=0000,utf8=true 0 0
[01:33] <FrozenFire[work]> For some reason, metacity's auto_raise configuration is not being effective. I have it set to false, and yet applications are still stealing global focus. Any solutions?
[01:33] <hiexpo> radar3d_,  don't worry there is no virus for linux   > if not ok also   just trying to help ya
[01:33] <ilovefairuz> Frankiitaa: devede?
[01:33] <Pacho> Ima li nqkoi bulgarin da popitam neshto?
[01:33] <radar3d_> bazhang, i got it installed (download helper) restarted firefox and it is saying it is missing something, but doesn't say what it is
[01:34] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  trim  out the umask and utf options perhaps. and try just 'sudo mount /home/kaie/USBShareTWO' \
[01:34] <radar3d_> hiexpo, Thanks, but i think the firefox addon is the way to go
[01:34] <Frankiitaa> ilovefairuz: is it the name of the program that you recomend?
[01:34] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  you do realize you could mount it to /media/ and just have a link in the users home from /media/USBshareTwo to /home/username/USBShareTwo  :)
[01:34] <hiexpo> radar3d_,  ok good luck with that   :)
[01:34] <ilovefairuz> Pacho: what's your native language?
[01:35] <Pacho> Bulgarian ?
[01:35] <ilovefairuz> Frankiitaa: yeah check it out
[01:35] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  your HOME is on its own parittion or not? You are not trying to mount that befor home is mounted are you?
[01:35] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, that will allow me to share?
[01:35] <Frankiitaa> ilovefairuz, thanks
[01:35] <CodeWar> have two monitors connected in twinview as of 8.04 I could span an application to cover both monitors not any more now .. any idea why?
[01:35] <Kaie`> my / and /home are seperate
[01:35] <QaDeS_> hmmm...let's discuss that tomorrow. gtg
[01:35] <QaDeS_> cya's
[01:36] <tank> USB audio device isn't working. can anyone help, checked the forums and such, nothing has worked thus far
[01:36] <ilovefairuz> !bg | Pacho
[01:36] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  i share directories in /media/ all the time via samba..
[01:36] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, i dont specifically care about mounting to a folder. i just want to be able to share it.
[01:36] <MarkSS> Why am I not able to drag my current active window off another screen to another workspace?  Ubuntu normally allows me to do this by default.  Why not now?
[01:36] <Pacho> tank ..:D
[01:36] <ZykoticK9> bazhang, regarding youtube-dl -- i do believe the version in Ubuntu repo is not working with changes to YouTube, and thus having to use version outside of repo...
[01:36] <Dr_Willis> MarkSS:  thers a compiz/gnome setting that enables taht feature I recall.. perhaps its turned off.
[01:37] <basix-> is Terminal and Bash the same thing?
[01:37] <hiexpo> bazhang,  ok just checked and the 3 balloons  do work sorry about that
[01:37] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, yeah i never tried that.. i just tried sharing folders from within the drive icon that shows up
[01:37] <Dr_Willis> basix-:  terminal is a more geernic term for 'any' shell/program to access a command line interface
[01:37] <ilovefairuz> basix-: bash the the program that runs inside a terminal, called a "shell"
[01:38] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  you can always edit the smb.conf to share whatever you want also.
[01:38] <tank> pacho?
[01:38] <ianwizard> basix-: yes and no.  no they are not, but bash runs in the terminal, and is the interface that you use
[01:38] <Pacho> nothing Tank. :)
[01:38] <tank> rofl pacho
[01:38] <basix-> okay, thanks again :)
[01:38] <tank> anyone able to halp?
[01:38] <hiexpo> ZykoticK9,  - i just offeredhim the new one i made but he declined so oh well
[01:38] <maxwellian> Uh, quick check...if I just upgraded to 10.04, shouldn't I have grub2, not grub installed?
[01:38] <Dr_Willis> basix-:  theres other 'shells' you can use.. but basically they all run in a 'terminal' (on X at least) for you to actually access them
[01:39] <MarkSS> Dr_Willis: How do I check on that feature?
[01:39] <Dr_Willis> MarkSS:  its in the settings somewhere..  I dont recall where.
[01:39] <basix-> so do i have to do anything special to access bash within terminal? or is it already there and i just type the terminal commands?
[01:39] <ilovefairuz> tank: what kind of usb device? and pastebin lsusb
[01:39] <Pacho> rofl tank
[01:39] <Pacho> muaha
[01:39] <Pacho> :D
[01:39] <Pacho> muhaha
[01:39] <Pacho> ;d
[01:39] <FloodBot2> Pacho: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:39] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, ive never reall messed with smb.conf.... the only time i did i EFFed everything up
[01:40] <ilovefairuz> Pacho: stop this please
[01:40] <tank> Bus 003 Device 002: ID 047f:ad01 Plantronics, Inc.
[01:40] <tank> thats the device
[01:40] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  thats why you make backups of the origianl. and you read teh docs. :)
[01:40] <ilovefairuz> tank: what is it?
[01:40] <tank> ilovefairuz its a usb headset
[01:41] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, that was the craziest bit. i did save a copy of the original.. but the system still wouldnt share. i had to reinstall
[01:41] <Kaie`> it was intense
[01:41] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  I imagine you did somthing else wrong that would of been trivial to fix.
[01:41] <ilovefairuz> tank: tail -f /var/log/messages, plug it off and on, and then pastebin
[01:41] <ilovefairuz> !paste > tank
[01:42] <Kaie`> Dr_Willis, i tried going into /media/drive and sharing some folders...
[01:42] <Kaie`> when i hop on another machine it cant resolve the network path
[01:42] <Kaie`> the share shows.. i just can access it
[01:43] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  try entering the full URL to the share in the gnome file manager, and also try it via the machines IP not machine name.
[01:43] <Dr_Willis>  smb://servername/sharename  or smb://serv.ip.num.ber/sharename
[01:43] <Kaie`> well its to share on my WDTV =/

[02:03] <Dr_Willis> ritztech:  i think you may need to write up a little forum post explaining what you are trying to do and why.  You cant 'suid' a script. but you could make some sort of binary you could suid, and have that run other things..
[02:04] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  When in doubt read the NTFS-3g docs/faq/guides. Its  not rocket-surgery.  its rather logical.  0_o
[02:04] <TrevorUbuntu> booting...
[02:04] <TrevorUbuntu> YES!
[02:05] <Dr_Willis> Kaie`:  how mounting stuff works.. is a rather Core thing to learn about for a linux user. :) well worth the effort.
[02:05] <TrevorUbuntu> OK, lesson learned.. if you're running software RAID, don't mess with fstab unless you're sure that noauto is set.
[02:05] <TrevorUbuntu> ahh the things learned after a power outage... :(
[02:05] <TrevorUbuntu> later folks...
[02:06] <DesiArnez6> I cannot open alsamixer, and lost my sound from yesterdays auto-update. Can someone help?
[02:06] <ritztech> hmmm what about edit the sudoers file i got to see where the hek the mutt is
[02:08] <crazy6> pepee: that seemed to work... any idea how I can get my touchpad working now?
[02:08] <Dr_Willis> ritztech:  im not even clear on why you are running mutt as root.
[02:09] <ritztech> because i have a script taht needs SU access to run mutt and theres like 100s of people with radius logings ... BASICALLY pulling a DIAG file from a device and emailing it
[02:09] <pepee> crazy6, sorry, no idea. btw, for making permanent, you should edit /etc/default/grub
[02:09] <crazy6> pepee: yeah, that's where I changed it
[02:09] <DesiArnez6> I cannot open alsamixer, and lost my sound from yesterdays auto-update. Can someone help?
[02:09] <pepee> ahh ok
[02:09] <crazy6> pepee: there's a lot that doesn't quite work on this machine... got to get X going so I can install restricted drivers and such to get wifi working
[02:10] <ritztech> unless i can enable it for everyone and change the from address on the script
[02:10] <ritztech> but if i do it gives me error Not enough permissions
[02:10] <pepee> crazy6, restricted wifi drivers?
[02:11] <crazy6> pepee: I think so... I'm reading the ubuntu forum with 'links' and it seems to say that's a way to make it work... apparently there's also a binary driver from broadcom I'll try
[02:11] <Dr_Willis> ritztech:  so you need to run a script as 'root' access to do some admin tasks.
[02:11] <crazy6> pepee: is there a way to enable restricted drivers from the console, without kde running?
[02:11] <darek9> ilovefairuz http://pastebin.com/5HFbh6cr
[02:12] <pepee> crazy6, ahh broadcom...
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> ritztech:  and 'sudo scriptname' is not suitable because of why?
[02:12] <pepee> crazy6, modprobe <driver>
[02:12] <Frankiitaa> DVD-R Won't Mount After Ubuntu 10.04 Update
[02:12] <DesiArnez6> I cannot open alsamixer, and lost my sound from yesterdays auto-update. Can someone help?
[02:12] <bsmith093> can i mark an ntfs partition as clean from within ubuntu
[02:12] <ilovefairuz> darek9: is it usb based? pastebin lsusb
[02:13] <crazy6> pepee: ah, but then I'd  have to know the actual module name, whereas the "restricted drivers manager" magically shows me compatible ones....
[02:13] <bsmith093> its a windows install that i cant bot ansd which crashed violently
[02:13] <Dr_Willis> bsmith093:  thers a way to do it..  I dont recall how. I do recall it could be considered dangerous to the data
[02:13] <Dr_Willis> bsmith093:  you can force ntfs-3g to mount an unclean partition also
[02:13] <bsmith093> ok then is ther a way to force clonezilla to recue it anyway?
[02:14] <pepee> crazy6, show me the output of this: lspci | egrep -i "network|wireless"
[02:15] <crazy6> pepee: hard without a touchpad, but it shows that it's a Broadcom 4727
[02:16] <truebit> so im here
[02:17] <xunilresu> #blankon @ irc.freenode.net
[02:17] <pepee> crazy6, no such model in google. do you mean bcm4313?
[02:17] <crazy6> pepee: nah, it definitely says 4727
[02:17] <truebit> howcome my mouse dosent work
[02:18] <darek5> I have pasted my config at http://pastebin.com/5HFbh6cr (Still the poweredge network card not working)
[02:18] <Dr_Willis> truebit:  ive had an odd issue where i reboot and mouse dosent work untill i unplug/plug it in.. but its not always  doing it..
[02:18] <crazy6> pepee: the module b43 loads, but iwconfig doesn't show any wifi adapters...
[02:18] <timh>  hi.  my pager (window list manager on the lower panel) quit paging.  It is locked on Desk 1.
[02:18] <ilovefairuz> darek5: paste lsusb
[02:19] <Dr_Willis> timh:  I noticed somthing like that with my compiz settings gettting goofed up. I reset the compiz settings  back to defaults and it started working again
[02:19] <truebit> Dr_Willis: will try that
[02:19] <sako> hey guys you think ubuntu is reeady for production?
[02:19] <darek5> iloverairuz It's not an usb card
[02:19] <sako> or is a distro like debian still the goto?
[02:19] <Dr_Willis> sako:  'production' is a very vague term.
[02:19] <pseubodot> is ubuntu ready for production?
[02:19] <pseubodot> erm.
[02:19] <sako> well
[02:19] <darek5> It's a pci
[02:19] <Dr_Willis> sako:  it can do the job in a great many cases...
[02:19] <pseubodot> sako: what do you mean by production?
[02:20] <jasonwryan> sako: it's only at 10.04, you might want to wait for a couple of years...
[02:20] <sako> public facing high traffic sites
[02:20] <sako> hah
[02:20] <pseubodot> desktop pc? workgroup server? nuclear reactor control system? battleship control system? :)
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> sako:  theres servers running ubuntu alrleady..
[02:20] <sako> webserver
[02:20] <sako> yea
[02:20] <pseubodot> oh. just that.
[02:20] <pseubodot> y'know, maybe in another two years ... :)
[02:20] <sako> just wanted to get some of your opinions or possibly find someone that has been using it
[02:20] <pepee> crazy6, sudo rmmod b43 b44 ssb wl ; sudo modprobe ieee80211_crypt_tkip wl b44
[02:20] <pseubodot> sako: we've run it for quite some time
[02:21] <pepee> crazy6, you'll be disconnected if you are using wifi...
[02:21] <tank> ilovefairuz: sorry for dropping out on you like that, was helping someone install teamspeak 3 in linux
[02:21] <crazy6> pepee: nah, using wired right now
[02:21] <truebit> Dr_Willis: it works now  thought is might be a ps mode problem
[02:21] <sako> yea won't hurt to try it
[02:21] <pseubodot> sako: it's linux, it should be fine ...
[02:21] <sako> thanks guys
[02:21] <glib> i am trying to watch a big mkv video file (8gb) using vlc but it is really glitchy and freezes and pixalates sometimes.  how would i fix this?
[02:21] <deco> glib: try mplayer
[02:22] <tensorpudding> glib: what video drivers?
[02:22]  * Dr_Willis wonders how long a 8gb video file is.
[02:22] <glib> tensorpudding, i think vlc has it's own drivers
[02:22] <deco> Dr_Willis: if it's 1080p hd video like 2 hours
[02:22] <deco> what
[02:22] <deco> lul
[02:22] <deco> glib: he means your graphics card
[02:22] <glib> tensorpudding, if i try to use totem with gstreamer is it even worse
[02:23] <glib> oh.
[02:23] <deco> glib: you might not have a fast enough cpu
[02:23] <Dr_Willis> There is a newer verison of VLC out i saw mention of. with hardware accell.
[02:23] <deco> glib: what is your cpu specs ?
[02:24] <deco> s/is/are
[02:24] <glib> my gpu is a quadro NVS 140M
[02:24] <deco> glib: cpu now
[02:24] <glib> and my cpu is 2ghz duo
[02:24] <glib> intel
[02:24] <deco> glib: that's why
[02:25] <deco> your cpu is too slow
[02:25] <truebit> Dr_Willis: it that golden eye?
[02:25] <glib> how fast does the cpu need to be to play videos of that size?
[02:25] <crazy6> pepee: well, that ieee80211_crypt_tkip module doesn't seem to exist, but the others work, and now I have eth1, which shows wireless extensions
[02:25] <glib> deco, and will mplayer help?
[02:25] <deco> glib:  i have a 3.1ghz more than enough but i don't know the minimal
[02:26] <rallias> is there a bittorrent client for Ubuntu that connects to one peer, downloads all the available pieces and uploads all the pieces they need and it has, then moves onto the next client?
[02:26] <deco> glib: well you can try mplayer with the nvidia driver thing it has
[02:26] <deco> glib: makes your gpu help with the decoding
[02:26] <deco> of the video
[02:26] <Dr_Willis> truebit:  i dont keep up. My sysmtes are too low spec anyway
[02:26] <glib> huh, is that a setting that i would have to adjust or does it do it automatically?
[02:26] <deco> glib: you have to use the command line
[02:27] <deco> glib: let me get the command
[02:27] <deco> just a sec
[02:27] <glib> ok
[02:27] <Dr_Willis> glib:  some versions of mplayer have that vpadu feature that makes use of special features in some nvidia chipsets.
[02:27] <idrankwhat> I'm having problems running ubuntu 10.04 on a new PC is this the right place for some help? I'm really new and do not know how to use grub or sudu
[02:27] <Dr_Willis> idrankwhat:  clarify the actual problems and lets see who can help you.
[02:28] <Dr_Willis> idrankwhat:  this is the right place. :)
[02:28] <idrankwhat> Boot error: Gave up waiting for root device ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/... does not exist. Dropping to a shell
[02:29] <deco> glib: okay do , sudo apt-get install mlayer

[02:29] <pepee> crazy6, what ubuntu version? tried installing linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic ??
[02:30] <crazy6> pepee: kubuntu 10.04 , although it *was* installed though Wubi, if it makes a difference (wouldn't think so)
[02:30] <glib> deco, installing now.
[02:30] <truebit> ok got that feed
[02:30] <glib> done.
[02:30] <deco> glib: if this doesn't help you need a faster cpu
[02:31] <truebit> sure sabian
[02:31] <glib> do i need to run the video from the command line?
[02:31] <pepee> crazy6, no it doesn't. update (sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude safe-upgrade ) install that package and reboot
[02:31] <deco> glib: yes
[02:31] <deco> glib: but wait
[02:31] <deco> glib: i'm looking for the exact command you will issure
[02:32] <deco> issue*
[02:32] <idrankwhat>  Launchpad has this issue posted, I do not understand the fix though https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+question/119318

[02:38] <truebit> idrankwhat: double boot??
[02:39] <idrankwhat> Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.04 both 64 bit versions
[02:40] <idrankwhat> truebit I am using Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.04 but getting errors when ubuntu tries to boot

[02:41] <ilovefairuz> no need to make a dir or specify ext3
[02:42] <Mqueue> can anyone help me setup oracle 10g on ubuntu ?
[02:42] <pepee> crazy6, and? did it work?
[02:42] <crazy6> pepee: made things worse, I think. Now wl won't load.
[02:42] <chong> idrankwhat: what error ?
[02:42] <idrankwhat> truebit I have read some solutions but I do not know how to access grub or sudu. I am assuming they are like a dos command window or something
[02:42] <Hoober> ilovefairuz... ferris bueler?
[02:42] <crazy6> pepee: wl: disagrees about version of symbol lib80211_get_crypto_ops

[02:44] <crazy6> pepee: b44 loads
[02:44] <tank> YEO!
[02:44] <crazy6> pepee: but not wireless extensions
[02:44] <idrankwhat> ilovefairuz I am too new to even know what grub is. I have heard of it but never used it.
[02:44] <crazy6> pepee: I think that Wubi installed a 64bit version of Kubuntu ...
[02:44] <pepee> hmm ok
[02:44] <ilovefairuz> idrankwhat: are you using the live cd now? i'll walk you through it
[02:45] <zebulon_> grub is the bootloader. loads the kernel
[02:45] <glib> deco, it seems to not be able to play the video. here is the output: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/5EAgaAtK
[02:45] <pepee> crazy6, uname -m for the OS type
[02:45] <pepee> crazy6, sorry if it didn't work :(
[02:45] <truebit> idrankwhat: what kind of errors?
[02:45] <idrankwhat> zebulon ok I understand the bootloader. and what is sudu?
[02:45] <kballash> Does anyone know if there is any software on ubuntu that you can do like home design and stuff
[02:45] <crazy6> pepee: ah, yeah, x86_64 ... I have this suspicion that it'll work a lot better if I can get it to give me a 32 bit version
[02:45] <Mqueue> can anyone help me setup oracle 10g on ubuntu ?
[02:46] <maco> kballash: like qcad?
[02:46] <crazy6> pepee: I can't just apt-get a 32-bit kernel, can I?
[02:46] <xangua> if you have a problem with grub2 try supergrubdisk2 http://www.supergrubdisk.org/ idrankwhat
[02:46] <jamiewan> kballash: google sketchup
[02:46] <xangua> crazy6: no
[02:46] <ilovefairuz> idrankwhat: are you using the live cd now or not?
[02:46] <pepee> crazy6, don't think so
[02:46] <kballash> worked with sketchup a little but yeah along those line
[02:46] <zebulon_> sudo elevates privileges of the use to root level
[02:46] <pepee> crazy6, anyway, I don't think that is relevant
[02:47] <jamiewan> kballash: its a good program yeah also a new one out called viewbuild
[02:47] <chong> idrankwhat: now ,you can startup you ubuntu.
[02:47] <idrankwhat> I am running windows right now. couldn't get going with the other. My laptop can boot up in Ubuntu OK. but thats not what I'm on right now.
[02:47] <kballash> yeah sketchup was ok ill check out the view build
[02:47] <ilovefairuz> idrankwhat: boot the live cd and join irc from there
[02:48] <glib> deco, my guess is that the problem is here: [vdpau] Could not open dynamic library libvdpau.so.1 but i don't really know how to go about fixing it
[02:49] <idrankwhat> OK, If I don't return I either didn't get booted up or may decide to do this in the morning. I am an early riser. and early to bed.
[02:49] <deco> glib: do apt-cache search vdpau
[02:49] <chong> idrankwhat: i think you disk uuid does't match you grub setting.so your kernel can't find the right root
[02:49] <deco> glib: and install away
[02:49] <pepee> crazy6, you should compile the driver, but you have to remove that package linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic
[02:50] <xangua> what driver pepee crazy6 '¿
[02:50] <zebulon_> gl idrankwhat
[02:50] <pepee> crazy6, btw broadcom 4727 is for the wired net
[02:51] <idrankwhat> thanks, rebooting with disk
[02:51] <crazy6> pepee: oh, is that so
[02:52] <pepee> crazy6, lspci | grep -i wireless
[02:52] <kballash> how do i sink my yahoo email to the ubuntu desktop
[02:53] <xangua> kballash: pop or imap you have to pay to yahoo
[02:53] <ilovefairuz> kballash: "sink"? do you mean use it in an email client? it's not free with yahoo
[02:53] <xangua> kballash: i believe for some countries is free
[02:53] <crazy6> pepee: nothing; lspci also shows an Atheros AR8131, which is an ethernet controller, so I'd think that is the wired network
[02:53] <crazy6> maybe the Broadcom 4727 is a fluke, and it's just giving the wrong name
[02:53] <IdleOne> ilovefairuz: may I message you?
[02:54] <zebulon_> it is free with gmail though

[03:00] <zebulon_> i'd rather use it than debian on my sheevaplug
[03:01] <chong> zebulon_: does't ubuntu support armv5 ?
[03:01] <zebulon_> older versions
[03:01] <zebulon_> not 10.04
[03:02] <chong> zebulon_: you can build one yourself, there's solution on the wiki.
[03:03] <zebulon_> oh certainly, but that's hardly the same as a supported platform
[03:04] <bsmith093> how do i mark a windows partition as clean from inside ubuntu ( i cant boot the windows part, its a dying hd and i want to rescue it but the 'dirty bit' won't let me)
[03:06] <carolinae> hi, my dell laptop has a monitor (vga) output port. It works fine while running Windows XP, but when I boot into Ubuntu I can't get it to output to the monitor. I searched google but couldn't find anything that worked. Any suggestions?
[03:07] <zebulon_> hi carolinae, we'll need more specifics like the dell model number and graphics card if possible
[03:07] <IdleOne> bsmith093: try in ##windows
[03:07] <IdleOne> oh wait
[03:07] <chong> zebulon_: yes, you are right, but ubuntu on arm architecture may need customu, it can't works same as the desktop on x86.
[03:08] <hiexpo> !windows
[03:08] <carolinae> zebulon_, it's a dell inspiron 8600, nvidia graphics card (would have to look up model though, if you need that)
[03:08] <mpadair00> hello
[03:08] <IdleOne> bsmith093: sorry I wouldn't know but I am guessing a Live CD and chroot, don't ask me how I have no clue

[03:12] <smmagic> Hey guys, Im in a bit of a pickle with booting and installing via usb/cd ..so I was wondering if I could create a USB boot disc and then copy the files to that so it would boot?
[03:13] <helpinstall> well this machine had XP on it. I burned the disc and popped it in. I went to try and everything was running just fine off the disc
[03:13] <helpinstall> I could go to firefox and mess aroudn. So I said let's install from there
[03:13] <kballash> if a program doesn't have a download for ubuntu what should I do?
[03:13] <truebit> who   13 min remaining

[03:13] <helpinstall> sometimes the momintor goes off as well
[03:13] <xangua> kballash: what program¿
[03:13] <helpinstall> and back on to a black screen. then the white bars pop up

[03:17] <ilovefairuz> Marcus_: ppa for kernel? why?
[03:17] <mpadair00> that's what i meant...are they the same except for the DE?
[03:17] <MikePikachu> hey i got a problem w/ ubuntu
[03:17] <extraclassic> PerryArmstrong: i think you need PowerISO - http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-do-i-open-daa-direct-access-archive-files-under-linux-or-unix-oses/
[03:17] <xangua> Marcus_: you will revieve ubuntu security updates but your OS will use the latest you have installed
[03:17] <Marcus_> xangua: I haven't added any, except the ppa:edgers, but I haven't added anything for the latest kernel, I built the 2.6.34 one myself, but I want it to update automatically.
[03:17] <ilovefairuz> mpadair00: same "base", different UI and applications
[03:17] <ilovefairuz> !details | MikePikachu
[03:17] <mpadair00> cool...thanx
[03:18] <MikePikachu> When I try to edit a user in the panel, it pops up with some random error message
[03:18] <Muelli> !details | MikePikachu
[03:18] <Marcus_> xangua: so it won't do any harm, updating to whichever one the standard ubuntu updates to?
[03:18] <truebit> ok some gnome  it is
[03:18] <zebulon_> PerryArmstrong: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=200616
[03:18] <guampa> an external ext4 drive mounts automatically when i plug it. Has mount options rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks, where can i change that? they aren't in /etc/fstab

[03:18] <MikePikachu> When I try to edit a user in the panel, it pops up with some random error message. Here is a screenshot of the other desktop http://a.imageshack.us/img38/3833/lvsma.jpg
[03:18] <xangua> Marcus_: i used this ppa to get the latest kernel, use it under your own risk https://launchpad.net/~guido-iodice/+archive/best-intel
[03:18] <J4Y> (test can anyone see this test)
[03:19] <zebulon_> J4Y it works
[03:19] <J4Y> ty
[03:19] <Muelli> guampa: well. you could add it to /etc/fstab :-)
[03:19] <MikePikachu> any idea whats wrong
[03:20] <zebulon_> why would you install some random guy's kernel xangua?
[03:20] <Marcus_> xangua: is there any harm in updating the standard one?
[03:20] <xangua> zebulon_: that's why i said 'under your own risk'
[03:20] <guampa> sure, but where are they set if not in /etc/fstab?
[03:20] <bsmith093> how do i get partimage to ingore read erroros
[03:20] <truebit> who   13 min remaining
[03:21] <Hoober> hey
[03:21] <Muelli> guampa: good question indeed. I imagine some udev magic
[03:21] <xangua> Marcus_: i am currently using it with no problems; if you have problems you can boot with a previous kernel and uninstall the ppa with ppa-purge, do you know how to use ppa-purge¿
[03:21] <Marcus_> xangua: No, I know how to purge an apt install, but how do I purge a ppa?
[03:22] <xangua> Marcus_: you first need to get ppa-purge, but is not in lucid repositry :( it will be in maverick's :D
[03:22] <ilovefairuz> bsmith093: you can't ignore them, either your partition table is messed up or you have a hardware issue
[03:22] <truebit> who so many floods
[03:22] <carolinae> zebulon_, yes i already have the nvidia drivers for ubuntu installed and active.
[03:23] <Marcus_> xangua: got it.
[03:23] <carolinae> zebulon_, i've checked the options in the driver settings, it has an option for multiple monitors but it doesn't detect the one that's plugged in.
[03:23] <xangua> Marcus_: this is a deb from the latest ppa-purge https://launchpad.net/~nilarimogard/+archive/webupd8/+files/ppa-purge_0.2.7-1~webupd8~lucid_all.deb and you ise it like this: sudo ppa-purge 'ppa's name'
[03:23] <Marcus_> xangua: The only thing that worries me about adding this new ppa, is that I use the linux radeon hd 4600 drivers from ati, as the edgers don't recognize my card.
[03:23] <zebulon_> carolinae: did you hit the laptop key to switch monitors?
[03:23] <JoeMaverickSett> if i want to upgrade my kernel from this site: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.35-maverick/ what are that parts that i should download and install?
[03:24] <reggi_aus> hello all
[03:24] <xangua> Marcus_: for addint the extra ppa would be> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:guido-iodice/best-intel    ; and to remove it > sudo ppa-purge ppa:guido-iodice/best-intel
[03:24] <guampa> Muelli: i imagine it's that too. i found a great article on http://superuser.com/questions/53978/ubuntu-automatically-mount-external-drives-to-media-label-on-boot-without-a-us that is somewhat related, but just started to search
[03:24] <ilovefairuz> JoeMaverickSett: join #ubuntu+1
[03:24] <kisplit> What command for apt gives me a short description of what a package is?
[03:24] <reggi_aus> i'm a linux noob
[03:24] <JoeMaverickSett> ilovefairuz, alright. thanks.
[03:24] <dos000_> howdy
[03:24] <xangua> Marcus_: do you use the open souce drivers¿
[03:24] <Muelli> guampa: what is your problem anyway?
[03:25] <Marcus_> xangua: thanks, will it work with my radeon hd 4600?
[03:25] <ilovefairuz> !hi | dos000
[03:25] <guampa> also a recursive grep on the flags in /etc/* lists nada :(
[03:25] <Marcus_> xangua: I tried, but they didn't take, so I ended up using the linux hd radeon drivers from ati.
[03:25] <xangua> Marcus_: well the ppa is also for better raedon and intell performance, i have an intel and it really has major performance
[03:25] <pkundu> hi i am trying to install ubuntu 10.04 but my keyboard and mouse freeze.i am usin Pentium D 2.9GHz with intel motherboard, 2GB RAM and Geforce 9500GT 1GB graphics card.please help.
[03:25] <dos000_> is there a theme that has dark windows for developpers specially ? the white is getting on my eyes
[03:25] <Muelli> kisplit: apt-cache show $package
[03:25] <timh____> I have a little problem with rhythmbox.  Every time it loads it dialogs me to search for a suitable plug-in.  Search shows what is missing is id3 tag demuxer, which I know about and don't care about.  Is there a way to disable the dialog each and every time I launch?  It's annoying.
[03:26] <xangua> you mean fglrx Marcus_ ¿¿
[03:26] <kisplit> Muelli: Thanks a lot =]
[03:26] <Muelli> timh____: hm. dunno but sounds like a bug, because the dialog should offer you a "don't bug me anymore" button or so.
[03:26] <Marcus_> xangua: if I use fglrx uninstall.sh then install the newest ppa, that should do it?
[03:26] <xangua> dos000you will find a lot of themes in http://gnome-look.org/
[03:27] <guampa> Muelli: i'm backing up the whole vfs with backintime, and have it set to save xattrs (haven't found how to make it save acls too), and it fails with  Error: rsync: set_acl: sys_acl_set_file: operation not supported
[03:27] <dos000_> how do i set the default bacground anyway for all the applications from white to something else ?
[03:27] <Muelli> guampa: I see.
[03:27] <xangua> Marcus_: the ppa says you should add other ppa to make it work with fglrx, wich is: ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
[03:27] <ilovefairuz> dos000, google "gnome themes" you'll find a lot, gnome-files.org, deviantart.com, and some others
[03:27] <Marcus_> xangua: and all the things in between I meant, as a no-brainer, add the ppa, sudo apt-update sudo upgrade, grub-update, etc.
[03:28] <dos000_> ilovefairuz, i did . i got good themes. except the default backgound is always white
[03:28] <xangua> well just update>upgrade and restart
[03:28] <Marcus_> xangua: ok. <grin> <-- newb
[03:28] <Muelli> guampa: hm. as I've said, either hardcode in /etc/fstab, remount your drive or search for some udev magic, i.e. in /usr/lib/udev. But you seem to be on your way anyway :-)
[03:28] <dos000_> ilovefairuz, i dont mean the desktop bakgrd
[03:28] <ilovefairuz> dos000: some themes supports color modification in the appearance dialog
[03:29] <truebit> ok so thahs one
[03:29] <ilovefairuz> dos000: there'
[03:29] <Marcus_> xangua: so for the ppa you just mentioned I need to add both, guido and this one?
[03:29] <ilovefairuz> dos000: there's a tab for that
[03:29] <xangua> Marcus_: then sudo add-apt-repository ppa:guido-iodice/best-intel  && sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
[03:29] <xangua> Marcus_: yes, then update and upgrade
[03:29] <guampa> Muelli: anyway, i'll edit the fstab and use the uuid but i'm left kinda ¬¬
[03:29] <dos000_> ilovefairuz, ti did not see the customize button in lucid !
[03:30] <Marcus_> xangua: thanks.
[03:30] <ilovefairuz> dos000_: there you go!
[03:30] <xangua> Marcus_: and remember to also install ppa-purge to uninstall the ppa if there is a problem https://launchpad.net/~nilarimogard/+archive/webupd8/+files/ppa-purge_0.2.7-1~webupd8~lucid_all.deb
[03:30] <Marcus_> xangua: I love playing with my system.
[03:30] <dos000_> thanks a lot guys
[03:31] <Marcus_> xangua: already did.
[03:31] <kisplit> Is it just ubuntu that uses apt or is it debian too?
[03:31] <Marcus_> xangua: If I want to go back to the open source, so I can test out the new radeon open source should I just use fglrx uninstall and thats it? Or is there somehting else?
[03:31] <Muelli> kisplit: debian, too, because Ubuntu is based on Debian
[03:31] <kisplit> Muelli: Thanks again
[03:32] <Muelli> guampa: Have you checked /lib/udev/rules.d/80-udisks.rules?
[03:32] <ilovefairuz> !debian | kisplit
[03:32] <xangua> Marcus_: not really sure about that
[03:32] <Rubiscous> Hi, help I've just updated karmic, reset, and now my mouse pointer is invisible! Anything I can do to bring it back this is annoying lol :)
[03:33] <Marcus_> ati drivers say to revert, just do the fglrx uninstall. But I'm wondering if thats enough, do the open source drivers need to make sure xorg.conf is setup in some way???
[03:33] <J4Y> do networks run on a "IPv6" im looking for networking help channel to sit in and learn
[03:33] <J4Y> i saw that name up..but wasnt sure (noob sorry)
[03:33] <Marcus_> xangua:  ati drivers say to revert, just do the fglrx uninstall. But I'm wondering if thats enough, do the open source drivers need to make sure xorg.conf is setup in some way???
[03:34] <DigitalDeviant> question: I have 4 hard drives in my ubuntu server. 1 as the os, the other 3 are just ext4 file system now, mounted and all. but is it possible that I can dedicate each one of those drives to a program, say drive 2 - ftp, drive 3 = sql, drive 4 = www ?
[03:34] <zebulon_> J4Y not usually. you have to specially setup an IPV6 connection to the net
[03:34] <xangua> Marcus_: well i don't have a customized xorg, do you¿¿
[03:34] <xangua> xorg.file*
[03:34] <J4Y> (ty zeb again :) )
[03:34] <Marcus_> xangua: no my old xorg.conf is blank, I was wondering if that was normal?
[03:34] <Muelli> DigitalDeviant: yes
[03:35] <xangua> Marcus_: since ubuntu 9.10 is normal; it's created everytime you boot
[03:35] <guampa> Muelli: looks like a good place to plug the "udev magic"
[03:35] <Marcus_> xangua: that puts my mind at ease. Thought it was bad.
[03:35] <DigitalDeviant> ive only been working on linux for like a month so i know enough to screw things up. Im just looking for someone to do like a goto meeting with me while im in my shell and direct me on what to do, but i cant find anyone to help me and everything i have read to make it happen makes things worse
[03:35] <Marcus_> xangua: ok, off to blow up my machine. Thanks a ton.
[03:36] <truebit> DigitalDeviant: not unless you install them so
[03:36] <DigitalDeviant> i always get permissions errors and all kinds of other things
[03:36] <ilovefairuz> J4Y: http://arstechnica.com/hardware/news/2007/03/IPv6.ars
[03:36] <Karen_mm> My sound does not work, how can i trouble shoot it?
[03:36] <carolinae> zebulon_, don't know that my laptop has such a button.. or is that an ubuntu thing? can't find what you're talking about, in any case.
[03:37] <ilovefairuz> DigitalDeviant: "dedicate" it in what sense? just host the files? or attached to a virtual machine ?
[03:37] <xangua> Karen_mm: any particullar applitation or no sound at all¿
[03:38] <zebulon_> carolinae: the inspiron 8600 user guide says you push fn and f8 to switch monitors
[03:38] <abrar> hi
[03:38] <zebulon_> le
[03:38] <DigitalDeviant> not sure: i just want each drive to host the services i a running, sql, ftp, www
[03:38] <PerryArmstrong> zebulon_, thanks i'll check it
[03:39] <J4Y> i am running on ubuntu as admin..should i turn off this feature? Is it a security hazard?
[03:39] <zebulon_> digitalDeviant: each server has a config file. Each config file specifies a "DocumentRoot" or other general location to store files
[03:39] <Karen_mm> xangua, , when i watch videos in chromium, the sound comes out but it comes all static sounding like in a loop
[03:39] <xangua> J4Y: admin as an user with administration privileges or as root¿¿
[03:40] <Karen_mm> doesn't matter which video
[03:40] <guampa> J4Y: you are running as root?
[03:40] <J4Y> let me check, one second please and thank you
[03:40] <truebit> xangua: AS ROOT SURELY
[03:40] <xangua> Karen_mm: flash videos¿
[03:40] <J4Y> under user settings, i am logged in as admin
[03:41] <ilovefairuz> DigitalDeviant: the "service" could mean a number of things, if the computer is powerful enough, it could host several "virtual machines" each attached to a certain harddisk and concerned with serving a certain purpose, or you could just squash it all together and just host the services data on different drives
[03:41] <carolinae> zebulon_, Ah, I'll have to try that next time i reboot (it's running windows at the moment, for use with the monitor). But I somewhat doubt if it will work, since I've found that most Fn+? combinations don't work under Ubuntu.
[03:41] <doodooxx_> same in terminal?
[03:41] <J4Y> (i set this setting because i thought the password requirement wouldnt come up everytime i installed new software)
[03:41] <PerryArmstrong> zebulon_, but i am getting an error while trying to extract the .daa file
[03:41] <guampa> J4Y: if the command "whoami" doesn't output "root", it's all good
[03:41] <J4Y> (checking....)
[03:41] <zebulon_> perryarmstrong: is the file corrupted?
[03:42] <PerryArmstrong> zebulon_, nope
[03:42] <J4Y> okay, it gave my account name and not root...thank you guampa and others
[03:42] <kisplit> I've done a good amount of C++ programming. I'm starting a java course at the end of this month. Should I be using the jdk from su... oracle or is it ok to go ahead and install the openjdk?
[03:42] <guampa> no problem J4Y
[03:42] <carolinae> zebulon_, Also, it concerns me that the nvidia graphics card settings dialog (with the proprietary drivers in use) cannot detect the external monitor. I would like to be able to troubleshoot that problem.
[03:43] <tensorpudding> kisplit: openjdk is from sun/oracle
[03:43] <kisplit> tensorpudding: Interesting, I didn't know this. Thanks
[03:43] <reggi_aus> hey folks
[03:43] <truebit> whoo only 17 mins left
[03:43] <reggi_aus> does anyone know a program
[03:43] <PerryArmstrong> zebulon_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/474343/
[03:44] <reggi_aus> that will let me backup
[03:44] <reggi_aus> about 15gb of stuff
[03:44] <reggi_aus> and span it across dvds?
[03:44] <reggi_aus> (but not zip it)
[03:44] <tensorpudding> kisplit: well, at least part of it is, it's opened up to contributions from Red Hat and others
[03:45] <kisplit> tensorpudding: How much does it differ from the "standard"(?) jdk?
[03:45] <PerryArmstrong> zebulon_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/474344/
[03:45] <reggi_aus> hey folks does anyone know a program that will copy about 15gb of files and folders and automatically span it across dvds?
[03:45] <tensorpudding> kisplit: That I'm not too certain of
[03:45] <zebulon_> perryArmstrong: did you scroll all the way to the right? it says to visit their website and get the latest version of the software
[03:46] <kisplit> tensorpudding: That's fine, you gave me a perfect start. I really appeciate it =]
[03:46] <PerryArmstrong> zebulon_, ok
[03:46] <tensorpudding> kisplit: I'm sure there are internet resources that know more than I do.
[03:46] <reggi_aus> hey folks does anyone know a program that will copy about 15gb of files and folders and automatically span it across dvds?
[03:47] <truebit> yes that slided
[03:47] <kisplit> reggi_aus: cp
[03:47] <kisplit> reggi_aus: all I can think of atm :(
[03:48] <ilovefairuz> reggi_aus: you can tar them all, split to manageable sizes  and burn
[03:49] <truebit> yes but tell agruis hes off course...
[03:49] <PerryArmstrong> zebulon_, vow thanks its converting now after i downloaded the latest version
[03:49] <truebit> no not here
[03:50] <Yadira> how do i run ligthsribe just installed and is no shortcut,,is it on terminal,,do i need to make a launcher my self ?
[03:50] <Rubiscous> hi, anyone know how to get back a disappeared mouse pointer?
[03:51] <Artel> Hey
[03:51] <Artel> I have several problems with ubuntu. One is sonud. in the middle of using the program Rhythmbox, all the sound in my system turns to this weird staticy noise.
[03:51] <truebit>  no wrong net
[03:51] <Random832> Artel: disable pulseaudio
[03:51] <Artel> Random832: How do I do that?
[03:52] <truebit> ohh ok
[03:52] <Artel> Looking it up right now...
[03:52] <truebit> no wrong site
[03:53] <Random832> i forget how to do it on lucid
[03:53] <c3l> how do I specify port for ssh sync server in tomboy?
[03:53] <g0> hi, will there be problems if i create a usb startup disk for a 64 bit system from a 32 bit sys?
[03:53] <Artel> Alright. second thing
[03:53] <Random832> g0: no.
[03:53] <Artel> When I go full screen on Google Chrome on my other monitor, I can't go back to windowed mode.
[03:53] <Artel> Is there a way to fix that?
[03:53] <g0> Random832: Thanks :) I'll try it then
[03:53] <Random832> Artel: there's no key to do it?
[03:54] <Artel> Well, if I press the key to go back to normal mode, it just goes back to full screen
[03:54] <Artel> it's as if it's "stuck" on full screen mode.
[03:54] <Random832> you sure you're not hitting the key twice?
[03:54] <truebit> no scarib dont
[03:54] <Artel> I hit it once, and it becomes permanently stuck on full screen on my smaller monitor. on the bigger monitor there's no problem
[03:55] <sacarlson> speaking of sound any body know how to get jackd working with an mp3 player?  or anything for that mater.  I can only get realtime working if I start qjackdctl as root
[03:55] <Artel> Nevermind. found a solution for that on google.
[03:56] <Artel> Alright, last thing. Where do I go to edit the boot order of Grub on lucid?

[04:08] <Random832> they're very common now what kind of cpu do you have
[04:09] <somethinginteres> Zeu5: dual core means there's actually two cpu's on the one chip
[04:09] <Zeu5> mmy cpu 1 us always ard 30 -50 plus while cpu 2 is always 20-40 plus
[04:09] <Random832> well, they share L2 cache
[04:09] <Zeu5> somethinginteres: i am using intel pentium dual core T2370 1.73 Ghz 533Mhz running on 3 Gb RAM
[04:10] <Random832> anyway the two cores show up as two cpus to any monitoring tools
[04:10] <grendelson> I just got some updates ( ubuntu 10) and now I can't scan ( and my PC is locking up on going to sleep but the scanner is worse now - I can see the USB scanner in sane-find-scanner
[04:10] <Zeu5> Random832: so is my cpu usage normal?
[04:11] <grendelson> but no front end sees it - scanimage -L or xsane or anything - all say no device found
[04:11] <Zeu5> i am currently running jus chrome and gns3 and chatzilla
[04:11] <grendelson> not sure what I'm missing now ....
[04:11] <Random832> who knows
[04:12] <Random832> "chrome" covers a lot of ground - just static webpage, or a lot of stuff with flash [even ads]?
[04:12] <Random832> and no idea about chatzilla - mozilla stuff can be a hog sometimes
[04:12] <Random832> what is gns3?
[04:12] <Random832> what processes are taking up the cpu?
[04:12] <Zeu5> Random832: i see.
[04:12] <Zeu5> oh gns3 is an emulator for cisco routers. i am now taking a ccna course..
[04:13] <Zeu5> gns3 is also a resource hogger
[04:13] <Random832> an emulator?
[04:13] <Random832> emulation can be intensive if there's not a huge disparity in the power of the machine being emulated vs the one running it
[04:13] <Zeu5> so i am doing my best to improve performance
[04:13] <Zeu5> Random832: yes i know.. wich is why i am runnning system monitor at same time :)
[04:14] <Random832> well, what does your monitoring thing say about what processes are taking up the cpu
[04:15] <Zeu5> Random832: hmm hang on let me check

[04:16] <deco> O_O
[04:16] <Zeu5> Random832: when i click on processes, there is a long list of sleeping processes
[04:16] <chrOnik> :D
[04:16] <Random832> don't worry about those - what are the active ones? (sort by cpu % if you have to)
[04:17] <Zeu5> Random832: gnome-system monitor 18% ~ 30 %
[04:17] <guampa> emm, was just about asking how to configure "udisks" mount options when i saw shadertest's msg , lol
[04:17] <Zeu5> Random832: chrome is 4~10%
[04:18] <Zeu5> Random832: the rest are even more insignificant :)
[04:18] <guampa> anyone knows how to set "udisks" mount options?
[04:18] <Random832> wait for it to settle down, even simple apps will jump up right after you do something with them
[04:18] <Zeu5> Random832: so i think i am good right?
[04:18] <Random832> and you said you had 30% on one cpu and 50% on the other something's not ading up
[04:18] <cereal> Anyone here using ipv6 w/ ubuntu?
[04:19] <cereal> I'm having issues with Network Manager not connecting to my wireless if in network manager i change to to do 'Automatic' on IPv6 instead of 'Ignore'
[04:21] <Zeu5> Random832: is that cause for concern?
[04:21] <Random832> Zeu5: i'm just confused where the 30% and 50% you said was coming from
[04:21] <Random832> the percentages of individual processes should add up to the total
[04:21] <Random832> it sounds like you're fine
[04:22] <Zeu5> Random832: oh that was when i turned on my gns3.. haha. ijust turned it off hence doesnt add up. my question is it is okay that 1 cpu is higher than the other right?
[04:22] <Random832> yeah that's fine
[04:22] <Zeu5> Random832: cool :) thanks!~~~
[04:22] <Zeu5> Random832: bye bye.my class is restarting
[04:22] <Random832> probably gns3 was doing 50% and everything piled together on the other core was 30%
[04:23] <Random832> would be my guess
[04:23] <Zeu5> Random832: i guess so.
[04:23] <Zeu5> processes now put gns 3 ard 52
[04:23] <Zeu5> Random832: bye
[04:25] <sacarlson> I just found that I'm runing 2.6.32-21-generic,  I installed the realtime kernel but seems I'm still booting this generic one,  how do I change to the realtime kenel that is already installed?
[04:26] <look> im in Ubuntu 10.04 and I have a wifi card (wlan0) when i 'iwlist scan' it shows that the network is down but when i do 'ifconfig wlan0 up' it says there is no such directoy, it sees my card but wont let it turn on for some odd reason, and yes it is "turn on" on my laptop but ubuntu says its not. Any thing i can do about this?
[04:26] <cereal> sudo ?
[04:27] <ilovefairuz> look: sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
[04:27] <look> cereal, i tried that already
[04:27] <chrOnik> what should i use to show cpu temps?
[04:27] <look> cpuinfo?
[04:27] <chrOnik> lm-sensors isnt working :/
[04:27] <ilovefairuz> chrOnik: lm-sensors
[04:27] <cereal> well iwlist interface scanning <--
[04:27] <xangua> sacarlson: press alt before booting your pc; you should be able to select the kernel you want
[04:27] <cereal> per the man page
[04:27] <chrOnik> i dont know why i did sensors-detect
[04:27] <cereal> hence iwlist wlan0 scanning
[04:27] <look> cereal, but it says the network is down i know what iwlist is
[04:27] <sacarlson> xangua:  thanks I'll give that a try
[04:27] <chrOnik> i'll read the man page lol
[04:27] <ilovefairuz> cereal: it's scan not scanning
[04:28] <look> when i use ifconfig wlan0 up it says no directory

[04:40] <Flannel> bowei006: Once you're finished with the installer, run "sudo tasksel" and you'll get back to that screen
[04:40] <bowei006> i have used ubutnu before and will it be easy to install the software like all on one page for all the server software or i have to find them
[04:40] <bowei006> and flannel

[04:42] <grendelson>   How do I tell scanimage what devisce that is in Ubuntu 10?
[04:42] <look> ilovefairuz, ok here is the rfkill list

[04:43] <ilovefairuz> look: when you right-click on the icon does it say enabled ?
[04:43] <look> ilovefairuz, yes
[04:43] <ilovefairuz> look: also since this is a usb card, pastebin lsusb
[04:44] <look> ilovefairuz, errrr its not a USB card its an internal card, i just got this Netbook today its a HP mini

[04:44] <look> ilovefairuz, ill give you the lspci if you would like
[04:45] <kisplit> How can I set an environmental variable that will be persistent past reboot? For example: JAVA_HOME="/usr/java/"
[04:45] <ilovefairuz> look: ah internal? strange, ok, paste it
[04:45] <look> ilovefairuz, oh crap, this is a broadcom card D=
[04:45] <look> ilovefairuz, why didn't i see that...NOOOOO!
[04:45] <ilovefairuz> look: yeah it smells like one, paste it anyway
[04:46] <matttail> so I'm in a live boot of Ubuntu right now (from USB stick) and I would like to install Ubuntu as a dual boot with my WinXP.  But I don't want to install ubuntu on the same HD as WinXP, but a different one in my system.  I don't see how to do this?
[04:46] <xangua> matttail: buy an external hd¿¿
[04:47] <ilovefairuz> matttail: the installer has a select to select the hard disk and partitions
[04:47] <nayanshah> nick NayanShah
[04:47] <matttail> xangua, I have extra internal HD ready to us
[04:47] <ilovefairuz> matttail: has a screen *
[04:48] <look> http://paste.ubuntu.com/474366/
[04:48] <mayhammer> hi guys, i am a noob in the linux world. I am just curious on one thing. If i want to update/install a software that has a few dependencies on a PC that doesnt have internet access, how do I go about doing that thru a CD/DVD/USB? is it possible to copy all the necesary files from the repository from another machine?
[04:48] <look> ilovefairuz, here you go http://paste.ubuntu.com/474366/
[04:48] <ilovefairuz> !aptoncd | mayhammer
[04:48] <matttail> ilovefairuz, I see screen to manually set partitions, but when I select this I no longer seem to have option to set dual boot
[04:48] <rww> look: install the Broadcom STA driver through System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers, or the "bcmwl-kernel-source" package.
[04:49] <look> OMG rww to the rescue!
[04:49] <look> rww, thanks man
[04:49] <rww> look: basically, there are two Broadcom drivers, and the one Ubuntu uses by default doesn't work with BCM4312, but the STA/wl driver should.
[04:50] <mayhammer> kewl!
[04:50] <mayhammer> thanks ubottu!
[04:50] <edbian> mayhammer, He's a program.  Not a person.  (Apparently he just passed the turing test!)
[04:50] <rww> ubottu: gender
[04:51] <mayhammer> !offline
[04:51] <look> rww ill brb
[04:51] <look> rww, if im not back then your solution worked
[04:51] <mayhammer> ubottu:program
[04:51] <rww> look: alrighty. You'll probably have to power off and then power back on again to get it to work, otherwise it gets confused
[04:52] <rww> (as in, reboot won't necessarily work)
[04:52] <ilovefairuz> !fishing > mayhammer
[04:52] <ilovefairuz> rww: that sounds rather strange
[04:52] <mayhammer> anyways, thanks guys, bots or human
[04:52] <bowei006> does ubutnu server have an actual interface? after i logged in all i see is this terminal stuff. is there an interface or do i do everything from there?
[04:53] <ilovefairuz> bowei006: no, the server by default has only a command line interface, use the desktop edition if you want a graphical desktop
[04:53] <rww> ilovefairuz: I don't fully understand it (I've just had it happen), but gather that the driver loads firmware at boot, and if you restart instead of powering off it doesn't get cleared. It's usually not a problem, but has been occasionally for me.
[04:53] <ilovefairuz> bowei006: you can install server software on the desktop edition too, or any other kind of software
[04:54] <ilovefairuz> rww: i see
[04:54] <bowei006> @i lovefairuz in sudo tasksel i saw dekstop edition in there if i download that/install that will there then be a interface?
[04:54] <ilovefairuz> !tab | bowei006
[04:55] <edbian> bowei006, If you want to get technical command line is an interface.  The command line interface or CLI.  The GUI came much later.
[04:55] <ilovefairuz> bowei006: you mean "gnome desktop" well yes but you're better off using the desktop edition
[04:55] <Flannel> bowei006: Yes, that'll give you a GUI
[04:56] <chong> bowei006: basic commands is powerfull enough for manage servers.
[04:57] <bowei006> whats the point of a server edition if the desktop edition will also give u the same things? and i know there is a minimum system requiremet page but will 512mb ram and a pentium 4-2.8ghz solo core do the job
[04:58] <rww> bowei006: see the first question of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq

[05:01] <ubiWhore> hello yall
[05:01] <josue> buenas noches acabo
[05:01] <matttail> when trying to install Ubuntu to HD I can either let it dual boot and resize the partition that XP is on, or I can manually partition and then I don't get to dual boot.  At least that's what I'm seeing.  How can I setup a dual boot with ubuntu on it's own HD?
[05:02] <ilovefairuz> !hi | ubiWhore
[05:02] <josue> de instalar ubuntu 10.4 y es super
[05:02] <bowei006> well i am a noobie at this and is basically trying to get a ftp server running to host a site i made on my mac's iweb and command line/terminal whatever its called is just tooo hard for me as i dont now any commands
[05:02] <ilovefairuz> !es | josue
[05:02] <josue> pero tengo un problema con wine no me abre los archivos alguien me puede ayudar?
[05:02] <look> XD
[05:02] <look> omg your one guess what?
[05:03] <ilovefairuz> josue: Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es
[05:03] <ilovefairuz> "
[05:04] <ilovefairuz> bowei006: to host a site to be exposed on the internet? you need a web server for that not an ftp server
[05:04] <matttail> is there an indepth article on how to setup ubuntu on Dual boot setting?
[05:04] <ilovefairuz> bowei006: there are some very simple to use web servers like lighttpd
[05:04] <bowei006> ...really well mac and iweb said only a ftp server is needed
[05:04] <ilovefairuz> bowei006: what are you reading from? link
[05:05] <zebulon_> yes, you upload to ftp. and then the web server serves to customers
[05:05] <bowei006> ill take a screenshot or find the apple link
[05:05] <ilovefairuz> zebulon_: ftp is very insecure and rather discouraged, ssh provides a better and secure file handling
[05:05] <bowei006> http://www.apple.com/ilife/iweb/
[05:06] <bowei006> it says publish to ftp. i have no idea how this works but im just goiing along with it. do i also need a web server for this?
[05:06] <doctorZeus> mattail: you should be given the option to load ubuntu onto your 2nd hard drive.  Once installed, grub will take over as the bootloader and ask which OS to load at startup
[05:06] <zebulon_> yes bowie
[05:06] <zebulon_> there are free web hosting places online
[05:06] <matttail> doctorZeus, where is that option, I'm not seeing it
[05:07] <zebulon_> you are right ilovefairuz, but not everywhere provides scp or sftp access.
[05:07] <doctorZeus> It's been a while since I've been at that screen but it should be where you're seeing the hard drive and partition information.. if you're not seeing the 2nd hard drive on that screen then ubuntu isn't seeing the drive at all
[05:08] <doctorZeus> is it a new drive or recent swap?  May want to check cables and such
[05:08] <ratdog> hello, i lost my volume control applet, iv reloaded alsamix etc.. that dint work. im on Lucid..
[05:08] <xangua> ratdog: add indicator applet to the panel
[05:08] <ratdog> its not in the panel applet list
[05:09] <ratdog> anymore
[05:09] <ilovefairuz> bowei006: it mentions ftp as just one supported way to get your files to a web server, you need to either a) buy a web hosting + domain name package and it will provide you with username and password to upload your files or b) set up your own web server + dns  (using lighttpd for example) and buy a domain to point to it
[05:09] <matttail> doctorZeus, I get several options and Ubuntu is seeing the HD, but if I select the option to dual boot with the detected XP then I only get a slider to choose how to rezie the partition.  If I manually setup the partitions I get no further hints about dualbooting
[05:09] <basix-> i installed ubuntu yesterday, it worked  fine. when i came home today and opened my laptop i had to power it off and back on.. then before it did anything i had a message that said "Could not handle kernel"
[05:09] <ilovefairuz> bowei006: but since you're new to all this, i suggest just buying a cheap hosting + domain package
[05:09] <basix-> I eventually just popped the disc back in and reinstalled ubuntu
[05:10] <basix-> has anyone seen this before, or know what had caused it? and is there something i can do next time instead of having to reinstall everything?
[05:10] <bowei006> ilovefairuz:  i have a domain from dyndns does that count. and im not really too much a noobie. i got this working locally and i just dont get ubutnu
[05:10] <matttail> bowei006 I run a web design company and we use DreamHost - they're great and really cheep
[05:10] <ilovefairuz> zebulon_: and then someone installs a password sniffer on the ISP equipment, steals passwords and bombards the file servers with malware
[05:10] <doctorZeus> matttail: try this link, this is what I used http://apcmag.com/how_to_dual_boot_windows_xp_and_linux_xp_installed_first.htm
[05:11] <bowei006> ilovefairuz: does lighttpd support mac osx?
[05:11] <ilovefairuz> bowei006: yeah dyndns could work but you'll still have to set up a webserver
[05:11] <doctorZeus> I didn't use the live cd but it came together just fine
[05:11] <matttail> doctorZeus, I will read, thanks
