[05:25] <Bobo> hans that did not work it says it cant open it
[05:25] <scunizi> *installed
[05:25] <tc111> Tiggers: also, just a suggestion, i find that i get much better performance from my P4 3GHz HT with the HT turned off in the BIOS (1 - 3.0GHz CPU vs. 2 - 1.5GHz CPUs)
[05:25] <cdw32> i am not on karmic im on hardy
[05:25] <hans> Bobo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingRunPackage
[05:25] <android_ani_> Bobo uzip he tar.gz file first
[05:25] <cdw32> i can not install karmic yet..
[05:25] <Tiggers> HT?
[05:26] <Jordan_U> Barridus: --one-file-system for rsync
[05:26] <osirisx11> i can't mount my ipod in karmic, anyone have any ideas?
[05:26] <Bobo> android_ani_ what file is that?
[05:26] <G226> Nevermind I just didnt have the cam setup right in audio options.
[05:26] <vtec> Hello I've updated to karmic koala and my sound is acting up, it doesn't work after restarting alsa utils, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. but now it won't work at all, i've tried loggoing out and back in (can't restart because i'm busy) does anyone know of this problem
[05:26] <johnfg> To state why I need to try a reinstall of grub: I did a fresh install of karmic-desktop and it won't boot.  All previous ubuntu versions have been in a multi-boot environment, np.
[05:26] <android_ani_> see the extension of the file the you downloaded
[05:26] <scunizi> cdw32: ah.. you'd be better off looking in launchpad ppa's for an ubuntu deb.. otherwise the FF site or ubuntuforums.org might have more info.
[05:26] <Barridus> Jordan_U, ok i'll try that now and see, thanks
[05:26] <philh> cdw32, right click on the file and extract it, then locate the executable in the resulting directory
[05:26] <Jordan_U> Barridus: np
[05:26] <angelus> cdw32 you can just unzip the files into a directory, then there should be a file inside called 'firefox' or soemthign like that .... just run that file and then it'll work ....
[05:26] <sammich>   ctmjr It might be working now. I am going to restart and see. Back in a minute.
[05:27] <Jordan_U> johnfg: What happens when you try to boot?
[05:27] <johnfg> And what's used instead of grub.conf or menu.lst isn't seen by the grub responsible for multiboot.
[05:27] <johnfg> Jordan_U, Nothing, just the grub line, then one return/enter, then hangs.
[05:27] <johnfg> Never had a hint of this in anything previous to karmic.
[05:28] <tc111> Tiggers: HT = Hyper-Threading or Hyper-Threaded... makes an operating system think there are 2 CPU 'cores' instead of just 1 CPU... its a trick, there really is only 1 core. was useful when os's didn't use so much horsepower.
[05:28] <schnork-7> iarp; scunizi: Thanks for your help
[05:28] <Bobo> hans i went to the link it seems to be working cheers man
[05:28] <Tiggers> yeah, it came to me a second after I typed it
[05:28] <scunizi> schnork-7: np :) ..
[05:28] <Tiggers> its late here
[05:28] <angelus> does anyone know the cli command to suspend karmic .... gnome-power-cmd 'suspend' isnt working for me anymore ..
[05:28] <iarp> schnork-7: it was the syn program?
[05:28] <Jordan_U> johnfg: Interesting, try asking in #grub ( and so you know, karmic uses grub2 which uses grub.cfg and is all that they support in #grub )
[05:28] <cdw32> ok. I have other question. In Hardy, my video quality is really poor. Videos buffer and are choppy abt best. do you think this will be resolved if i upgrade to karmic
[05:29] <scunizi> cdw32: what kind of video card?
[05:29] <Jordan_U> cdw32: What graphics card and what video player?
[05:29] <vtec> Hello I've updated to karmic koala and my sound is acting up, it doesn't work after restarting alsa utils, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. but now it won't work at all, i've tried loggoing out and back in (can't restart because i'm busy) does anyone know of this problem
[05:29] <Keiya> Hey! It's supposed to be harder to get hardware to work with linux kernels, not easier!
[05:29] <Keiya> You guys need to fix this!
[05:29] <SeaPhor> cdw32, and what are you using to play them?
[05:29] <philh> cdw32, hardy? try intrepid for a start
[05:29] <schnork-7> iarp:Oh, no. I don't find a solution, so I reinstalled win7 from ubuntu
[05:29] <Barridus> Jordan_U, wow that was great!  don't know how i overlooked that flag (if it was in the docs i read anyways).  thanks, you just saved me a ton of grief
[05:29] <iarp> schnork-7: gotchya
[05:29] <fooj> vtec: right click the audio icon ,then select the device tab ,try another config
[05:29] <scunizi> philh: hardy is LTS.... good until the next release
[05:29] <cdw32> hulu and youtube and some vids for Biology
[05:29] <schnork-7> iarp: So know I'm able to download and burn a new ubuntu
[05:30] <Jordan_U> Barridus: np, it was in the ( very long ) man page, I had the advantage of knowing what to look for :)
[05:30] <cdw32> scunizi: i am not sure i have a mini 12
[05:30] <philh> scunizi, define good
[05:30] <vtec> fooj: what device tab do you mean hardware?
[05:30] <philh> it's archaic and painful to use
[05:30] <philh> stable, maybe
[05:30] <scunizi> philh: good as in stable functional etc.. the next release is also LTS and will be good for 3 years on updates..
[05:31] <fooj> vtec: yes
[05:31] <scunizi> cdw32: lspci will tell you typically
[05:31] <Jordan_U> cdw32: Youtube will likely be smoother with karmic on a mac mini since it uses intel graphics
[05:31] <ryty_> hello. I wanted to come on here and tell everyone that I am one of the few that installed Karmic and have not yet had any problems.
[05:31] <johnfg> Jordan_U, Ubuntu installed grub silently, without asking me for any feedback, and it still wouldn't boot.
[05:31] <vtec> fooj: there is only one option and that is "internal audio"
[05:31] <philh> scunizi, and it'll be lumbered with whatever outdated major versions of packages are included at release, in the same way, it's a terribly situation
[05:31] <cdw32> Jordan_U: i have a dell mini 12
[05:31] <cdw32> so intrepid should be first then go to karmic
[05:31] <highway> hi all
[05:31] <scunizi> philh: some of us don't need the "latest" all the time.. just the stability.
[05:32] <johnfg> Jordan_U, Did you see my question: does my install cd have a rescue mode?  I thought I'd try reinstalling grub.
[05:32] <philh> cdw32, no, jaunty after that
[05:32] <Bobo> hans it says that i need to run it as supper user so how do i run it as super user
[05:32] <highway> i m having a lot of problem using ubuntu
[05:32] <cdw32> oh wow
[05:32] <highway> i just can connet the internet
[05:32] <philh> scunizi, some of us maybe, but very few would settle for it
[05:33] <cdw32> philh i can do them with a usb boot correct
[05:33] <scunizi> cdw32: if you have a seperate /home partition then you can jump directly to the latest with a fresh install saving your /home intact
[05:33] <Jordan_U> johnfg: Did you use the liveCD or the alternate CD? The liveCD is one big full fearured rescue mode in itself :)
[05:33] <fooj> vtec: is there a listbox under it
[05:33] <highway> hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllllllllllllpppppppppppppp
[05:33] <notfoo> heh
[05:33] <highway> i need urgent help
[05:33] <philh> cdw32, you can, or you can press the upgrade button in the update manager
[05:33] <cdw32> scunizi: i have no idean what that means
[05:33] <notfoo> highway: try elaborating first.
[05:33] <philh> cdw32, you'll need to change some settings in synaptic before that button will appear, though
[05:34] <sammich> ctmjr, Restarted. Plugged in external. Auto-mounted. However still popped up the error message. Have read/write access.
[05:34] <Bobo> hans i fixed it never mind ;)
[05:34] <cdw32> philh i have been doing that but nothing ever happens
[05:34] <highway> i cant connect the internet usingthe live cd
[05:34] <johnfg> I downloaded and burned the liveCD, but didn't install from live; I installed from the cd menu.
[05:34] <highway> whta should i do
[05:34] <philh> by default lts releases don't get that upgrade option until the next lts is out
[05:34] <scunizi> philh: "very few would settle?"  an opinion that can't be backed up.. better in ubuntu-offtopic
[05:34] <johnfg> Jordan_U, Does that sentence make sense to you in what I did?
[05:34] <Jordan_U> cdw32: Note that you can't upgrade directly to karmic
[05:34] <philh> scunizi, which gimp version is in lts at the moment?
[05:34] <gartral> hey all, i have a question about the drive manager: is it possible to add a partition the another drive that isn't mounted?
[05:35] <Jordan_U> johnfg: Yes
[05:35] <timClicks> anyone an expert on pulseaudio?
[05:35] <philh> timClicks, only in removing it
[05:35] <cdw32> Jordan_U: i tried updating to wht ever is above hardy but can not
[05:35] <joljam> I want to run firefox and open yahoo.com from the terminal... I tried firefox < www.yahoo.com.....but it did not work
[05:35] <rashed2030> Does anyone have trouble clicking on flash?
[05:36] <scunizi> philh: an older one.. 2.45 .. but don't try to use that to make a point about an opinion
[05:36] <vtec> fooj: yes it's set to analog stereo duplex
[05:36] <timClicks> philh: ;)
[05:36] <rashed2030> joljam: firefox www.yahoo.com
[05:36] <radar1976> ok   how do I resume a do-release-upgrade, it terminated on me a
[05:36] <Jordan_U> johnfg: Boot the LiveCD and choose the "try ubuntu without any changes" option to boot to a full desktop. From there you can re-install grub, though I don't think that will help
[05:36] <joljam> ok thanks
[05:36] <SeaPhor> wow scunizi the filth you have to deal with these days... seems some go looking to provoke
[05:37] <timClicks> i seem to have killed its ability to detect my soundcard
[05:37] <sobersabre> Does anybody here own Dell Studio 15(1555) laptop ?
[05:37] <scunizi> SeaPhor: you noticed that ;)
[05:37] <cramop> hello, I have two packages listed under local/obsolete in synaptic: tzdata and tzdata-java. If I try to remove them zillions of packages are removed as well. How can I resolve this issue? I do not want any obsolote packages
[05:37] <johnfg> Jordan_U, Do you think it matters how I installed?  I.e., should I try to install while being booted from the liveCD?
[05:37] <Jordan_U> johnfg: No, it makes no difference ( it's the same installer )
[05:37] <gartral> hey all, i have a question about the drive manager: is it possible to add a partition the another drive that isn't mounted?
[05:37] <Jordan_U> johnfg: You can try installing grub legacy
[05:38] <philh> scunizi, i ran lts for a long time, it was a painful experience towards the end, if it works for you, great, but don't claim that it's "good" until the next release, support for the apps shipped with it will be harder and harder to come by
[05:38] <radar1976> :(
[05:38] <Jordan_U> johnfg: But before you do that you should really ask in #grub
[05:38] <Tiggers> tc111: thanks for the help
[05:38] <ctmjr> sammich, run this ls -la /media/sdb1
[05:38] <radar1976> my distro upgrade won't finish
[05:38] <radar1976> help!
[05:38] <highway> hi!
[05:38] <tc111> Tiggers: sorry i couldn't do more... nite.
[05:38] <Tiggers> later
[05:38] <highway> pls hlelp me!
[05:38] <felix> radar1976: what happens?
[05:38] <scunizi> SeaPhor: must have hit a sensitive button
[05:39] <highway> i can connect to the internet using ubuntu 9.10 live cd
[05:39] <highway> i have a dsl connection
[05:39] <highway> what should i do?
[05:39] <philh> scunizi, must have, clearly
[05:39] <highway> pls hlp!
[05:39] <radar1976> it says there is no new release
[05:39] <radar1976> but the upgrade didn't complete
[05:39] <felix> highway: what is the problem?
[05:40] <fooj> vtec: then try another one util it effected
[05:40] <highway> i cant connetct to the internet
[05:40] <sammich> ctmjr, ok. what should I do with that?
[05:40] <philh> cdw32, can you look in software sources for me and see if there's an option for Release upgrade in the updates tab?
[05:40] <ffffffffff> highway: have you looked at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkDevices
[05:40] <cdw32> what is the version direclty above hardy
[05:40] <philh> cdw32, intrepid
[05:40] <cdw32> philh thanks
[05:41] <EthanZ6174> what should I do if I got this in coding android apps? Keystore was tampered with, or password was incorrect
[05:41] <radar1976> it started to download the files to do the upgrade, but I canceled it because I needed to install an updated first...now I can't continue the upgrade
[05:41] <scunizi> cdw32: they are alphabetical.. after intrepid.. jaunty.. karmic
[05:41] <gartral> im having real problems with my networking in ubuntu
[05:41] <philh> cdw32, codenames are alphabetical, version numbers are year+month
[05:41] <SecularistClassW> everytime i boot into the new ubuntu it asks for my password it starts to load then it goes back to the login screen for a password again. it takes 5-6 attempts to let me in and i cannot seem to solve it, can anyone suggest anything
[05:41] <SeaPhor> scunizi, how does one not see the joinings and leavings in xchat, got someone asking me...?
[05:42] <cdw32> philh scunizi thanks! what is the version for intrepid...i am having trouble finding it
[05:42] <levon2012> does anyone know how to unlock a hdd through usb. Its my xbox hard drive i know the master password but need a program to unlock it
[05:42] <b0w> hello! how can i know the name of my localadress? its weird because when i do netstat -a it says BACKTRACK i dont know if im being backtracked heheh or thats the name i set up
[05:42] <gartral> SecularistClassW: have ya reinstalled ubuntu?
[05:42] <cramop> I think tzdata was replaced by some other package. Does anybody know which package that might be?
[05:42] <SeaPhor> cdw32, 8.10
[05:42] <polandchris> SecularistClassW: is that the actual release or the beta?
[05:43] <cdw32> thankss
[05:43] <ctmjr> sammich, who is it owned by does it say root root for everything?
[05:43] <philh> cdw32, did you find the software sources dialogue?
[05:43] <sammich> ctmjr, yes root across the board
[05:43] <SecularistClassW> gartral and polandchris, i got it from the update . i had 9.04 before . is that a problem?
[05:43] <radar1976> help me!!! I need to get this updated..
[05:43] <cdw32> philh where would that be located?  ubuntu.com
[05:43] <b0w> hello! how can i know the name of my localadress? its weird because when i do netstat -a it says BACKTRACK i dont know if im being backtracked heheh or thats the name i set up
[05:44] <philh> cdw32, System > Administration > Software sources here, but i'm on 9.04
[05:44] <gartral> SecularistClassW: updates are almost universally failtastic, the only garenteeable way to not come out with borked system is a fresh install.. :\
[05:44] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[05:44] <philh> things may be in a different location for you :-\
[05:44] <philh> i was just thinking that we hadn't had a good split for a while
[05:45] <SecularistClassW> gartral, when you say fresh install do you mean a format, or can i just copy over the top with a .iso burn?
[05:45] <ctmjr> sammich, do this sudo chmod 777 /media/sdb1
[05:45] <gartral> SecularistClassW: format.. meaning you have to backup what you want to save
[05:45] <cdw32> philh found it
[05:45] <philh> cdw32, well done
[05:45] <john> k jtz
[05:46] <cramop> is tzdata really obsolete?
[05:46] <b0w> hello! how can i know the name of my localadress? its weird because when i do netstat -a it says BACKTRACK i dont know if im being backtracked heheh or thats the name i set up
[05:46] <jtz> sweet
[05:46] <b0w> b0w-laptop wpa_supplicant[1013]: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS <-------------- i got that on the syslog
[05:46] <SecularistClassW> gartral, is there anyway i can go back to 9.04 and roll back without formatting?
[05:46] <cdw32> philh i remember before my software sources screen was a little diffrent. like it was missing some options..
[05:46] <levon2012> any one know of a program that will unlock my hard drive through usb?
[05:47] <gartral> SecularistClassW: unfortuently not without breaking more software
[05:47] <cdw32> philh since then i had sent my computer back for maint. and they reloaded hardy
[05:47] <yeason> I'm hoping someone can help me figure out why dhclient is ignoring responses... here's what happens: http://paste.ubuntu.com/309172/
[05:47] <ffffffffff> b0w: try the hostname command?
[05:47] <philh> cdw32, who's doing maintenance for you? is hardy a requirement?
[05:48] <yeason> it just gets stuck in a loop
[05:48] <cdw32> dell
[05:48] <cdw32> no it is not
[05:48] <Larvae> Hello there
[05:48] <ares6231> i'm about to install ubuntu
[05:48] <cdw32> philh i used my computer for school
[05:48] <cdw32> philh i sent it back to dell
[05:48] <ares6231> but I don't want to overwrite my Win XP installation
[05:48] <Larvae> Dual boot.
[05:48] <b0w> ffffffffff: yeah my hostname is bow-laptop i dont know why it says BACKTRACK im a lil nbervous because backtrack is usally used by "hackids" heheh any idea?
[05:49] <ares6231> will the "Use the largest continuous free space" install it in the unpartitioned space??
[05:49] <jtan189> hackids?
[05:50] <ares6231> i left 20GB unpartitioned when I installed XP.. how do i install ubuntu into that?
[05:50] <Jordan_U> ares6231: Yes
[05:50] <ares6231> ok thanks!
[05:50] <Jordan_U> ares6231: np
[05:50] <sammich> ctmjr, done. not sure if it did anything
[05:50] <Larvae> I got a question.
[05:50] <cdw32> philh i tried to upgrade before but fail, got frustrated, and left it alone
[05:51] <b0w> anyone here knows a lil bit of linux security that can help me out with something i think my computer its being used by someone else
[05:51] <philh> cdw32, ah, what failed/
[05:51] <radar1976> srry  I had to deal with the kids...did anyone have a message for me to assist me
[05:51] <yeason> b0w: what makes you think that?
[05:51] <Larvae> why do you think that, b0w?
[05:51] <cdw32> i did
[05:51] <mneptok> b0w: what makes you say that?
[05:51] <gartral> how can i adjust my fan speeds in ubbuntu?
[05:52] <gartral> ubuntu
[05:52] <cdw32> philh; should i be doing something iwth the software sources
[05:52] <b0w> well i made the netstat -a command and on localadrees it says BACKTRACK and a lot of tcp connections to different ips
[05:52] <Larvae> that means you're on the internet.
[05:52] <philh> cdw32, look for a release upgrade subsection
[05:52] <philh> in the updates tab
[05:53] <yeason> lol, netstat will show all current connections, including those you initiate
[05:53] <philh> you should be able to make it show all distro upgrades, not just lts upgrades
[05:53] <Larvae> Welcome to computers b0w
[05:53] <mneptok> cdw32: by default LTS releases only offer upgrades to other LTS releases.
[05:53] <b0w> Larvae: it doesnt have to do anything with the BackTrack linux security release used to literally hack systems?
[05:53] <Whollut> Nopez0rs.
[05:53] <ctmjr> sammich, does this still show root  ls -la /media/sdb1
[05:53] <philh> cdw32, the question really is what compelling reasons do you have for upgrading, what aspects of your linux experience are causing your problems?
[05:54] <cdw32> philh: they only thing there is automatic upgrade options like when to check, notify and run in backround
[05:54] <mneptok> cdw32: this is a Dell with Ubuntu pre-installed?
[05:54] <sammich> ctmjr, yes.
[05:54] <cdw32> mneptok: yes
[05:54] <cdw32> philh video quality
[05:54] <Whollut> So, can I download all the linux add-ons from Windows and put them on when I boot into Ubuntu?
[05:54] <mneptok> cdw32: if you want to upgrade, get a Jaunty ISO and get rid of unused disk partitions.
[05:54] <yeason> has anyone run into issues with dhclient ignoring server responses... any suggestions? I'm at a loss here... I have a paste of what dhclient does
[05:54] <philh> cdw32, that's a pain, i guess those options have moved
[05:55] <b0w> Whollut: are you sure?
[05:55] <cdw32> mneptok: i have no idea what that is
[05:55] <mneptok> cdw32: the Dells have partitions that you will not need once you upgrade.
[05:55] <cdw32> philh i see
[05:55] <Whollut> b0w: pretty sure. If nothing else is happening you need to calm down.
[05:55] <cdw32> mneptok: this will sound bad, but what is a partition
[05:55] <philh> i believe scunizi is running lts though, maybe he can help you
[05:55] <discrete> How do I turn off the splash screen in Karmic?
[05:55] <n8tuser> yeason -> go ahead and paste it, include what are in /var/lib/dhcp3/*.leases too
[05:55] <stephans> Handbrake (http://handbrake.fr/downloads.php) does not work in the new ubuntu... ;(
[05:55] <ctmjr> sammich, well am at a loss try posting your problem again and maybe someone will pick up on it
[05:55] <Whollut> *facepaw*
[05:56]  * Viking667 blinks. What splash screen?
[05:56] <b0w> Whollut: ok my question is why in localadress it says BACKTRACK
[05:56] <Whollut> b0w: so?
[05:56] <cdw32> philh its?
[05:56] <Whollut> b0w: i see nothing wrong with that
[05:56] <mneptok> cdw32: your hard disk it cut up into chunks, like a pie. each chunk is a partition. Dell puts partitions on the drive you will not need, and you can gain ~3GB of space by deleteing them.
[05:56] <philh> cdw32, LTS
[05:56] <yeason> here's the paste of dhclient http://paste.ubuntu.com/309172/
[05:56] <sammich> ctmjr, thanks for the effort. I got the file I really needed. I'll bump the forums post tomorrow I guess. Sleep calls.
[05:57] <yeason> theres some files in that directory, all empty
[05:57] <penta> hello, perhaps, someone knows how I can limit numbers of static address on the interface?
[05:57] <cdw32> philh
[05:57] <cdw32> thanks
[05:57] <yayaihi> what shall i do to replace ubuntu logo on gdm?
[05:57] <Viking667> ... that rather depends upon you not ever needing the contents of the hidden partitions
[05:57] <philh> cdw32, the hardy release is a long term service release, meaning it isn't configured to receive upgrades until the next LTS release is out
[05:57] <cdw32> mneptok: how would one go about that
[05:57] <b0w> Whollut: hehehe well maybe you dont know what BackTrack is thats why. welcome to computers :)
[05:57] <mneptok> cdw32: install from CD media or USB key.
[05:57] <cdw32> philh which is 10.4 i believe
[05:57] <yeason> dhclient will just keep doing that too, it never binds to the address... (if thats the right term)
[05:57] <ctmjr> sammich, ok good luck
[05:58] <n8tuser> !who | yeason
[05:59] <philh> cdw32, indeed, so if you can wait that long, or find other solutions to your problems, it may be easier to wait for it
[05:59] <yeason> ubottu: my bad...
[05:59] <SeaPhor> heh
[05:59] <radar1976> ok  so who do I get the distro upgrade completed???
[05:59] <philh> cdw32, what kind of video quality issues are you experiencing?
[06:00] <SeaPhor> i have NONE in 8,04 btw
[06:00] <cdw32> philh well the video and sudio do not match up and the video is choppy
[06:00] <vika23> I am getting no sound in karmic , other than grrrr , my configuration using aplay -l is  HDA ATI SB , ALC662 .
[06:00] <philh> cdw32, what are you using for video playback?
[06:01] <cdw32> philh at first i thought it was the wireless conncetion so i hard wired..same this
[06:01] <yeason> n8tuser: here's the paste http://paste.ubuntu.com/309172/, dhclient will keep repeating but never complete. In that directory are four files, two each for wireless and hardwire.
[06:01] <philh> do you see the same problems with vlc and mplayer or just totem?
[06:01] <philh> oh, not flash video?
[06:01] <knightrage> so for some reason, videos dont play (in totem, mplayer, or kmplayer). it shows the first frame and just stops. its as if it were paused. when i hit the space bar, it skips to the next frame and stays paused. i dunno whats happening. any ideas?
[06:01] <zetheroo1> did Exaile music player in Karmic loose its graphic equaliser?
[06:01] <cdw32> philh it is internet vids...from hulu youtube and this website for my class vids
[06:02] <SeaPhor> philh, cdw32 said on youtubeetc
[06:02] <n8tuser> yeason -> which nic is active? use the corresponding file for it to paste
[06:02] <cdw32> philh yes
[06:02] <SeaPhor> philh, cdw32 said on youtube etc.
[06:02] <philh> SeaPhor, i caught that the first time, thanks
[06:03] <philh> cdw32, i haven't yet managed to get acceptable performance out of flash myself, sorry
[06:03] <jlgshk> #ubuntu-es
[06:03] <SeaPhor> apparently not, that was a half hour ago
[06:03] <philh> SeaPhor, the first time you restated it
[06:03] <philh> SeaPhor, are you ok?
[06:03] <cdw32> philh: and i tried to update my flash, but it is not working
[06:04] <knightrage> hmm.. its working in vlc media player. guess i'll just have to use that
[06:04] <sobersabre> Any Dell Studio 15(1555) laptop owners ?
[06:04] <levon2012> anyone know of a program that will help unlock my hard drive through usb?
[06:05] <alex87> levon2012: unlock?
[06:05] <cdw32> philp i dl it and tried to install but package manager said it falied bc of dependencies..
[06:05] <SeaPhor> levon2012, what u mean by "unlock"
[06:06] <cdw32> philh then i did sudo apt-get install -f installed nut
[06:06] <cdw32> but
[06:06] <Jon732> Hello, I have a sony Vaio that keeps cause a kernel panic whenever it enters hibernate
[06:07] <dcider> levon2012, have you tried Storage Device Manager?
[06:07] <cdw32> philh it was a .deb file...
[06:07] <sobersabre> lepban: WTF ?
[06:07] <Viking667> right. I need to ask something. How the heck do I connect from one machine to another machine using X forwarding? (i.e. XDMCP)
[06:08] <Billiard> sobersabre: what is your issue
[06:08] <yeason> n8tuser: I've tried getting either NIC to work, wireless through the net manager and wired through command line. all the files are empty. there's a .lease file for each nic, and a .leases file for eth0 and just dhclient.leases
[06:08] <philh> cdw32, i've got the most up to date version of flash available and, for some reason, it is almost impossible to use fullscreen and doesn't perform terribly well embedded
[06:08] <n8tuser> yeason -> can you paste the contents of your /etc/network/interfaces file?
[06:08] <yeason> it just has the standard 'auto lo' 'iface lo inet loopback' and that's it
[06:08] <vika23> I am getting no sound in karmic , other than grrrr , my configuration using aplay -l is  HDA ATI SB , ALC662 .
[06:08] <Jeruvy> levon2012: unlock your drive?  How is it locked?
[06:08] <Viking667> Because as of Karmic, I can't connect to my X server from any other machines in the network.
[06:08] <Viking667> I can't even connect to my OWN X server using the network address.
[06:08] <sobersabre> Billiard: I asked a Q. on channel, and another user is writing me personally, so I wonder on channel what the fuzz ?
[06:08] <cdw32> philh so you do not think it is worth trying to install?
[06:09] <philh> cdw32, you need to use dpkg -i to install a deb
[06:09] <cdw32> philh my b/f computer runs windows and it workd fine
[06:09] <sobersabre> Billiard: I'm considering to buy a laptop with a set of requirements, but there's no online tool that consolidates this kind of search.
[06:09] <philh> cdw32, i wouldn't want to suggest that it's going to fix your problems, as i've got similar problems and no idea what causes them, other than poor quality non-free code courtesy of Adobe
[06:09] <cdw32> philh do i need to add a file name?
[06:10] <Draconis> has anyone set up android for use not in eclipse?
[06:10] <sobersabre> if such tool exists the choices it allows are too LOW rezolution. e.g. if I want a DDR3 memory support, these choice tools don't offer this, just mem size.
[06:10] <Jon732> I just have a quick question, I have a sony vaio laptop, everytime it enters hibernate and I resume my computer my keyboard ceases to function and I get a kernel panic. If there is no easy solution just say "no solution" and I'll disable the feature and solve the problem.
[06:10] <sobersabre> if I want a chipset, the tools I found don't offer that high rezo. specification.
[06:10] <technicallyrite> Viking667: Try nxclient/server from nomachine.com. It's x forwarding without the hassle, and it tunnels over ssh.
[06:10] <yeason> n8tuser: it just has the standard 'auto lo' 'iface lo inet loopback' and that's it
[06:11] <Viking667> doesn't work for items that don't know what the heck nx is.
[06:11] <Viking667> I actually need to connect to an X server, not an nx server
[06:11] <Viking667> and I have a secure network, or about as secure as a DSL modem can make it.
[06:12] <SeaPhor> philh, cdw32 what if you let the vid play till the buffer is finished, then go to the /tmp dir and copy the vid- rename it- to home dir,, and watch via vlc?
[06:12] <sobersabre> Billiard: any ideas where I get a list of laptop models by specifying these: VT-x supporting CPU, DDR3 mem, non-shared mem based graphic card, fingerprint reader ?
[06:12] <Viking667> silly thing is, the server _appears_ to be listening to all interface IPs on port 6000, yet if I specify the IP in DISPLAY, it won't connect.
[06:12] <cdw32> SeaPhor: how does that work?
[06:13] <Viking667> which, needless to say, is damn annoying.
[06:13] <sobersabre> Viking667: xauth mechanisms protect it.
[06:13] <philh> SeaPhor, anything streamed with rtmp doesn't get cached this way, it's ok for youtube but not iplayer or similar
[06:13] <technicallyrite> Anyone using the Karmic server? Have three servers I hesitate to upgrade since so many people have reported issues.
[06:13] <Viking667> it's NOT FLAMING XAUTH!!!
[06:13] <sobersabre> Viking667: then it's iptables :)
[06:13] <SeaPhor> cdw32, ask philh
[06:13] <Billiard> sobersabre: idk just google
[06:13] <philh> good point, though, cdw32 a work around could be to use a youtube downloader add-on for firefox
[06:14] <Viking667> sobersabre: oops. My bad. Seems it may be xauth in the way after all.
[06:14] <sobersabre> Billiard: It's too time consuming this kind of googling.
[06:14] <Viking667> sheesh.
[06:14] <philh> oh, hang on, the ffmpeg in hardy chokes on flvs
[06:14] <Sven1> how do I in Ubuntu 9.10 check which Xorg version I have
[06:14] <philh> that might not be a great solution
[06:14] <sobersabre> Viking667: no harm done...
[06:14] <cdw32> philh:  which would solve the youtube vid problem right
[06:14] <sobersabre> Sven1: you run man X
[06:15] <sobersabre> and look for the right flag..
[06:15] <savinvas> hi experts, I need help in flock installed in ubuntu 9.10. flock does not start if i do a ./flock-browser  but if I do sudo ./flock-browser, it starts fine
[06:15] <Sven1> sobersabre what? I mean how do i check in the terminal which xorg version i have so that it says if i have one and if so what version
[06:15] <philh> cdw32, providing the saved files work ok, yes, the youtube downloader would be a workaround, not exactly a solution, you wont be able to watch in the browser
[06:15] <rfmonk> Sven1 run dpkg -s xorg in terminal
[06:15] <sobersabre> Sven1: Xorg -version
[06:15] <sobersabre> lazy bone.
[06:15] <KB1JWQ> savinvas: I'll gues permissions.
[06:16] <Jon732> @savinvas why not just use firefox?
[06:16] <Viking667> Oh, ()@*#)(@*%@$(&*%{@$(%&%~~!~~
[06:16] <sobersabre> :)
[06:16] <savinvas> I have another machine with the same installation.. permissions are the same
[06:16] <n8tuser> yeason ->  what are in /var/lib/dhcp3/*.leases ? empty files?
[06:16] <Viking667> the new Xorg server doesn't "support" the xtest mechanism.
[06:16] <savinvas> -rwxr-xr-x
[06:16] <philh> i don't know about hulu, but i imagine they'll be using rtmp, so unless you can find a clever script that uses rtmpdump or flvstreamer, that's going to be difficult
[06:16] <Viking667> I've been using x2x for a while now, and lost the ability to use it with the upgrade to karmic. What the heck???
[06:16] <rfmonk> its probably 1:7.4+3ubuntu7
[06:17] <sobersabre> Viking667: what is x2x ?
[06:17] <cdw32> philh most things are with linux, bc i do not understand it that well
[06:17] <KB1JWQ> !pm | savinvas
[06:17] <yeason> n8tuser: yea, all empty
[06:17] <Viking667> forwards the pointer and keyboard inputs to another X server
[06:17] <SeaPhor> btw philh , and cdw32 , i have NO issues watching youtube, or other videos in browser on my 8.04 box
[06:17] <Viking667> (with suitable auth)
[06:17] <sobersabre> Viking667: ok, googled it in the meanwhile.
[06:17] <savinvas> sorry for that.
[06:17] <sobersabre> :)
[06:17] <philh> SeaPhor, which flash version are you using?
[06:18] <cdw32> SeaPhor: do you use firefox?
[06:18] <Viking667> *sigh*
[06:18] <Viking667> so much for what I was using.
[06:18] <sobersabre> Sven1: have you got your version ?
[06:18] <Viking667> hm. Wonder if the "test" extension's a module?
[06:18] <savinvas> then I tried installing with the deb package available in getdeb.net
[06:18] <SeaPhor> no idea philh its inthe other room where my wife is sleeping,,, i dare not attempt, lol
[06:18] <Sven1> sobersabre i gets lots of text but it does not say which version i have
[06:19] <Jon732> Has anyone here had success with windows 7 on vmware on ubuntu?
[06:19] <n8tuser> yeason -> whats the contents of your /etc/nsswitch.conf  ?
[06:19] <SeaPhor> cdw32, yes
[06:19] <cdw32> SeaPhor: hell hath no fury  like a womans scorn
[06:19] <aim1159> hi all
[06:19] <savinvas> I observed the flock is not opening for the user with the administrator privileges, but it opens fine for a desktop user
[06:19] <philh> SeaPhor, heh, fair enough
[06:19] <Sven1> sobersabre your command gave me less information then the other dudes but it is all confuseing
[06:19] <aim1159> got a bugreport: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/473765
[06:20] <cdw32> SeaPhor: i tried updating frifox and flash, but i cant get it to work
[06:20] <Seca> Jon732 .. i've gotten the tiny7 verions of win 7 runing unber virtualbox
[06:20] <Guest85609> i failed to identify the time for the nickname???? what does that mean???
[06:20] <aim1159> did anyone faced with this on ubuntu 9.10/kernel 2.6.31/amd64?
[06:20] <ravic> hi I recently changed from mac
[06:20] <gheddy_zarc> is the "Public" directory created in linux/ubuntu created by default to allow apache to use the folder ? so items in that folder can be seen by "The Public" (9.04)
[06:20] <ravic> i like "Hot corners" in it
[06:20] <Jon732> Thanks seca, I wanna try windows7 for a laugh at the epic fail
[06:20] <Sven1> rfmonk i did your command to find out which xorg version i have but the answer is confuseing it says Version: 1:7.4+3ubuntu7
[06:20] <ravic> wondering if that can be achieved in ubuntu too?
[06:20] <LeopardPenguin> I recently used this tutorial: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1311888  I came across 2 problems with it.  One is that nfs-kernel-server hangs when I run the restart command
[06:20] <aim1159> gheddy_zarc: it's for public sharing via samba
[06:21] <levon2012> jeruvy its locked for a xbox theres a special boot and it unlocks the hard drive through a key which i know.
[06:21] <cdw32> SeaPhor: i have never tried to install a tar.bz2 file before
[06:21] <SeaPhor> btw philh , and cdw32 , my only point is to look at other possibilities, not OS, not Release, not FF(or at least that release), etc,,, look at others
[06:21] <gheddy_zarc> okies thanks aim1159 thats what I want it for, can I stick files into it and see them across my lan ?on win boxes or whatevere ?
[06:22] <LeopardPenguin> If I try to mount things with the command, it says it still cant find it in my fstab and my mtab file
[06:22] <LeopardPenguin> but its in there
[06:22] <ravic>  hi I recently changed from mac.  i like "Hot corners" in it .wondering if that can be achieved in ubuntu too?
[06:22] <yeason> n8tuser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/309192/
[06:22] <SeaPhor> cdw32, bz2 is not install
[06:22] <savinvas> @jon732 : I need to run 2 web browsers so that I can open 2 instances of a java application. one in firefox and other in flock. otherwise I can open only one with firefox. thanks
[06:22] <philh> SeaPhor, feel free to volunteer some possibilities that spring to mind
[06:22] <cdw32> SeaPhor: then what could it be?
[06:22] <highway> hi all!.i have windows. but i heard of ububtu 9.10 nd thought of checking it out. so i downoade the cd image using bittorrent and burned it to a cd. i booted the cd and choosed the option " try ubuntu without any changes to your computer". it bootse and the genome desktop showed up without any problems. i thought of connectiong to the internet. i entered my isp details in the new dsl connection. when i clicked the icon in the network nitification area the lo
[06:22] <joam> how do you make it so the 'upgrade to new ubuntu distribution' button appears in the update manager?
[06:22] <SeaPhor> cdw32, bz2 its a compressed file,, the cmd is tar -xjvf name.tar.bz2
[06:23] <philh> cdw32, you don't need to install it, just extract to a sensible place and run from there
[06:23] <aim1159> gheddy_zarc: you need to install samba (just right-click for menu and choose share on this folder. then choose "allow others to create and delete on this folder" and "allow guest access"
[06:23] <aim1159> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/473765 - hdd problems
[06:23] <n8tuser> yeason -> try to replace line 11 with    hosts:          files dns   and see if it makes a difference
[06:23] <aim1159> anybody have them on 9.10 here?
[06:24] <aim1159> really ugly problem
[06:24] <kewlbns69> any chess geeks in here familiar with eboard and timeseal?
[06:24] <gheddy_zarc> yeah Samba seems to work ok I can see the files on the win box ok from ubuntu, can i use it to navigate to another ubuntu machine and view the files aim1159 ?
[06:24] <gotsanity> is there any reason that my file transfer from a windows share to an ubuntu box would only be transfering at ~7mb/s over a 100mb connection?
[06:24] <mneptok> kewlbns69: i graduated from chess to go a few years back :)
[06:24] <Jon732> @ savinas
[06:25] <koolhead> hey anyone using emacs
[06:25] <Jon732> @ savinas, the best thing to do (for me) especially testing (assuming you're doing web-development) is to install on a tool such as virtual box or vmware another os.
[06:25] <aim1159> gheddy_zarc: what do you mean by "navigate to another machine"?
[06:26] <Jon732> @savinas, but if its something simple try using opera instead of flock
[06:26] <n8tuser> yeason -> am off now..
[06:26] <cdw32> SeaPhor: the name as it appears under the icon on my desktop
[06:26] <kewlbns69> mneptok: i think there was a joke in there somewheres but i missed it lol...anyways i can't get eboard to work timeseal on ics
[06:26] <gheddy_zarc> mm Ive gotten rid of the win box, now its just ubuntu machines upon which I want to share files, aim1159
[06:26] <hellyes> I am using the partitioner in ubuntu 9.04.  Can someone tell me how to set up a swap space?
[06:26] <Guest85609> s
[06:26]  * Viking667 bangs his head against the desk... sigh. Bad DRM commands failing, no XTEST, no lmsensors, flakey DRI, whatever shall I do?
[06:26] <philh> gotsanity, silly question but have you got the cases correct there? people easily confuse megabits and megabytes
[06:26] <aim1159> gheddy_zarc: yes. you can use it to share files between ubuntu machines
[06:26] <savisaar2> does anyone know how i can view network shares in Kubuntu. It doesnt show any..
[06:27] <savinvas> my application supports mozilla browser.  but that is not important here.. the question is simple. why the installed program does not start for the administrator user while it runs when logged in as another user
[06:27] <gotsanity> philh, its a local machine on my switched network
[06:27] <Andorin> Um, guys...? I just came back from being afk. My computer was asleep, but no matter what I did, no matter what keys I pressed, my computer wouldn't wake up. I had to shut it down manually and then restart it. Running Karmic. Why did this happen?
[06:27] <ffffffffff> ravic: compiz can be configured to use hot corners
[06:27] <SeaPhor> cdw32, after uncompressing, see what u have,,, philh i am crashing,,, do us a fav and lay off downing LTS, if your opinion fine, just do it in private, not what a support channel is for, g'night
[06:27] <subramaniam> hi ... im using Ubuntu 9.10 .....eclipse 3.5 is very slow in 9.10 ???? am i missing something???
[06:27] <yeason> n8tuser: that didn't do anything... thanks for the help
[06:27] <newstudy1> If i boot into Ubuntu using the live CD, the OS comes from the CD. If i do an apt-get install, it has to download files somewhere. Where do those files go? and how much "disk space" do i have when using the LiveCD ?
[06:28] <philh> SeaPhor, don't get so bloody protective, it's just a distro
[06:28] <mneptok> kewlbns69: not a joke. i just favor go (the game) over chess these days.
[06:28] <gheddy_zarc> I can see a network in both browser windows on both machines eh aim1159 I can see the macs on the Lan, but not the ubuntu machines, I can also see the win boxes but I try not to use them anymore lol aim1159
[06:28] <technicallyrite> gotsanity: that's not bad, 100mbits isn't bytes
[06:28] <SeaPhor> philh, just askin'
[06:28] <cdw32> SeaPhor: i ran the cmd and got this http://paste.ubuntu.com/309193/
[06:28] <SeaPhor> philh, g'night
[06:29] <philh> g'night SeaPhor
[06:29] <aim1159> gheddy_zarc: have you installed samba on those ubuntu machines?
[06:29] <wgrant> newstudy1: They'll end up stored in RAM.
[06:29] <horny69> i did my mom
[06:29] <openweek0> Hi everyone.. am here after a really long time.. need help with Karmic
[06:29] <SeaPhor> philh, philh u gonna continue with cdw32 ?
[06:29] <openweek0> I upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10. after it installed successfully, it restarted..but mouse is freezed, and on gnome login the screen shows a white screen with nothing in it. On fail safe login there is normal screen but the mouse is still frozen. Please help me out of this. as this was my work machine and i dont want to do a clean install again
[06:30] <philh> cdw32, i was actually going to ask the same of you shortly before you announced that you were crashing, i should be off
[06:30] <newstudy1> wgrant: That's what i thought. Does that mean  I run out of "disk space" when I use up all the RAM i have?
[06:30] <kewlbns69> mneptok: no idea what you're saying but do you know how to fix my eboard so it works with timeseal?
[06:30] <gotsanity> technicallyrite, so 16gigs transfered over my lan should take around an hour? that seems way too slow
[06:30] <CaneToad> where can I go to get information as to how skype is supposed to work with an external USB audio device and audio conversations in 9.10 ?
[06:30] <wgrant> newstudy1: That's right. Although if you have swap partitions on your disk already, I believe it should use those automatically.
[06:30] <gheddy_zarc> yes samba talks to windows no worries I can print to other machine R&W to files etc but not to the Ubuntu boxes yet,, I think I need to asign some local sharing rules or  something aim1159
[06:30] <mneptok> kewlbns69: nope, as i don't use chess apps. sorry.
[06:30] <wgrant> CaneToad: You'd have to ask Skype about that.
[06:30] <openweek0> can any body please help me with this... I upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10. after it installed successfully, it restarted..but mouse is freezed, and on gnome login the screen shows a white screen with nothing in it. On fail safe login there is normal screen but the mouse is still frozen. Please help me out of this. as this was my work machine and i dont want to do a clean install again
[06:30] <yeason> does anyone have an idea why dhclient would get stuck in a loop. looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/309172/
[06:31] <cdw32> philh: it extracted ill see what i can do now...thanks gents
[06:31] <joljam> in a shell script file how can I pause for 10 seconds in between two lines of the script
[06:31] <zechs> does anyone know why I have no audio, and can't watch videos? this is after the update to 9.10
[06:31] <technicallyrite> hellyes: just make a partition with the 'swap' type of around 1-2x your RAM.
[06:31] <yeason> sleep 10
[06:31] <Andorin> Um, guys...? I just came back from being afk. My computer was asleep, but no matter what I did, no matter what keys I pressed, my computer wouldn't wake up. I had to shut it down manually and then restart it. Running Karmic. Why did this happen?
[06:31] <kewlbns69> mneptok: np m8 thanx anyhow
[06:31] <wgrant> yeason: Your DHCP server is never ACKing the REQUEST.
[06:31] <philh> cdw32, good luck
[06:31] <SeaPhor> cdw32, looks like a bad download
[06:31] <newstudy1> wgrant: Does that mean I can create a temp partition somewhere, and my LiveCD can use it?

[06:32] <wgrant> !repeat | openweek0
[06:32] <philh> SeaPhor, indeed
[06:32] <wgrant> yeason: Not sure.
[06:32] <kewlbns69> mneptok: ok
[06:32] <aim1159> gheddy_zarc: so press ctrl-l in nautilus and enter something like smb://192.168.x.x/ where 192.168.x.x is other machine ip address (you can use names, if you have a proper dns set up)
[06:32] <technicallyrite> gotsanity: Yep. Get gigabit for faster transfer, or configure FireWire local networking.
[06:32] <cdw32> philh that means what
[06:32]  * Viking667 departs
[06:32] <cdw32> i should re dl
[06:32] <ravic> ffffffffff, I installed compiz
[06:32] <iarp> question, anyone have any clue why ubuntu server vs desktop versions are only 40mb's apart
[06:33] <ravic> can u pl. tell me where to configure ?
[06:33] <eL_pSycHo> when is the new LTS gonna be realeased? anyone know?
[06:33] <zechs> does anyone know how I can get video's playing again?
[06:33] <iarp> for version 9.10 i mean
[06:33] <newstudy1> wgrant: Perfect! Thank you much!!
[06:33] <wgrant> eL_pSycHo: 10.04.
[06:33] <wgrant> iarp: Why wouldn't they be? The server CD is filled with server applications.
[06:33] <openweek0> sorry guys .. but i have been searching the forums for 2 days now and have seen no specific answer to this problem... that is the reason of impatience...
[06:33] <eL_pSycHo> wgrant, thanks!
[06:33] <SeaPhor>  philh is off my Christmas-card list cdw32
[06:34] <philh> cdw32, i think i missed something
[06:34] <judibeefl_> lol SeaPhor
[06:34] <DaZ> i guess the server cd has only minor differences from the desktop ;f
[06:34] <cdw32> SeaPhor: please dont fight
[06:34] <iarp> wgrant: but i'd figure images for the gui part would take alot of room
[06:34] <cdw32> philh in my command
[06:34] <lepban> can anyone direct me to a guide for setting up ubuntu server?  I'm a total server n00b btw.....
[06:34] <iarp> wgrant: or at least, alot more room then 40mb's
[06:34] <wgrant> iarp: And so do the lots of server applications included on the server CDs.
[06:35] <SeaPhor> lol, no worries cdw32
[06:35] <Bruc> who like ubuntu 9.20
[06:35] <yeason> anybody have any idea why dhclient wont pick up the address: http://paste.ubuntu.com/309172/
[06:35] <wgrant> iarp: The server CDs are not a subset of the desktop CDs. They include lots of server applications that the desktop edition does not.
[06:35] <cdw32> SeaPhor: i feel really stipud with linix
[06:35] <judibeefl_> 9.2 is out?
[06:35] <iarp> wgrant: true, makes sence
[06:35] <lepban> spelled linux!
[06:35] <eL_pSycHo> openweek0, sorry but i read a thread on the forums with something similar to your problem.. the bad news is the guy ultimately ended up reinstalling and that fixed it.
[06:35] <lepban> there is not 9.2
[06:36] <ffffffffff> ravic: it's controlled through the compiz configuration or settings tool which should be in the system menu
[06:36] <lepban> next is 10.04
[06:36] <cdw32> lepban: i cant wait
[06:36] <judibeefl_> lepban: that is what I thought..
[06:36] <hellyes> Please Help! I am setting up ubuntu 9.04.  I am at the screen where it tells me to input HTTP proxy information.  Can someone please tell me how to do this or what info I need?
[06:36] <wgrant> hellyes: If you don't know what to put there, you probably don't need it. Just leave it blank.
[06:37] <wgrant> hellyes: Are you using the text-based installer? Why are you installing Ubuntu 9.04, when 9.10 was released nearly a week ago?
[06:37] <SeaPhor> cdw32, dont, see that the opportunity to learn and grow is right in front of you, not on top of you like other OS's, then you feel empowered
[06:37] <hellyes> wgrant: will I still have internet access?
[06:37] <ffffffffff> ravic: if you're using karmic, you should be able to enable custom visual effects from system > pref > appearance
[06:37] <wgrant> hellyes: Unless you need a proxy for Internet access, yes.
[06:37] <hellyes> wgrant: I can't share my ubuntu and windows 7 machines with 9.10
[06:37] <philh> cdw32, strange error, are you in the correct directory?
[06:37] <wgrant> hellyes: You'll normally only need a proxy on a heavily firewalled corporate or educational network.
[06:37] <cdw32> SeaPhor:  this is true. linux is something new to me...i will just have to embrace it.
[06:37] <ffffffffff> ravic: sorry, to clarify, it should be the same thing
[06:37] <wgrant> hellyes: What goes wrong with 9.10?
[06:38] <openweek0> thanks eL_pSycHo
[06:38] <cdw32> philh i have no clue how to change directories
[06:38] <philh> cd followed by the directory name
[06:38] <openweek0> has anybody else seen any thing with regards to this problem of mine...
[06:38] <philh> where did you download the file to?
[06:39] <SeaPhor> but, cdw32 i have to crash for the night, i thought that philh was gonna continue to help you but ,,, i dunno, and i HAVE to crash now,,, (MEDS)
[06:39] <Bruc> anyone like ubuntu 9.10
[06:39] <philh> cdw32, you have two options here, you can use the gui to extract the tarball or you can learn how to traverse directories and do it using the tar command, the latter will take slightly more effort but the choice is yours
[06:39] <hellyes> wgrant: I have 3 machines networked.  An XP, a win 7 and an ubuntu machine (9.10).  I can see the other computers on the network from ubuntu, but even though win 7 firewall is off, I still can't access it.  It tells me "unable to mount location........failed to retrieve share list from server"
[06:39] <cdw32> philh: when dl manager finished it opend archive manager. i extracted to the desktop
[06:39] <philh> wow, the drama, gn again SeaPhor
[06:39] <hellyes> wgrant: but I can access my XP machine just fine
[06:39] <philh> cdw32, so you already extracted it?
[06:40] <dukz> hi guys, how can i make all connections in ubuntu go through a socks proxy?
[06:40] <cdw32> philh i have re dl the file, but now it wont let me extract it....
[06:40] <al__> what the easiest, hot pluggable solution, thats fast to connect and disconnect lots of different drives to my system? those usb bridges are handy but slow.
[06:40] <philh> cdw32, open the directory on the desktop that you extracted in the first place
[06:40] <cdw32> philh i get this tar: /tmp/firefox-3.5.4.tar.bz2: Cannot open: No such file or directory
[06:40] <differentreality> Hey all!  Are there any news regarding ubuntu 9.10 and huawei usb sticks for internet through 3g ?  thanks :)
[06:40] <KerrMD> howdy folks
[06:40] <philh> cdw32, that's because you didn't download to that directory, i suspect
[06:41] <cdw32> this is what followd
[06:41] <cdw32> tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
[06:41] <cdw32> tar: Child returned status 2
[06:41] <cdw32> tar: firefox: Not found in archive
[06:41] <cdw32> tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
[06:41] <FloodBot2> cdw32: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:41] <philh> can you just look on your desktop and see if you can find a firefox directory?
[06:41] <judibeefl_> hi kerrmd
[06:41] <KerrMD> Does anyone have any experience in getting a BCM4328 working in Karmic koala?
[06:41] <cdw32> sorry floodbot2. i forgot
[06:41] <philh> cdw32, yes, that looks impressive but it basically means file not found
[06:41] <cdw32> haha
[06:41] <cdw32> which means
[06:41] <bcarm17> hiya
[06:42] <philh> which means you're in the wrong directory
[06:42] <philh> directory=folder
[06:42] <cdw32> ok
[06:42] <philh> cdw32, open the firefox download manager
[06:42] <wgrant> philh: Isn't that saying the path could not be found *inside* the tarball?
[06:42] <cdw32> i can open the file with archive manager
[06:42] <cdw32> ok
[06:42] <bcarm17> does anyone know how to change the desktop font of 9.10 netbook remix?
[06:42] <philh> wgrant, it could me, i may very well be wrong

[06:42] <philh> be*
[06:43] <cramop> I think tzdata was replaced by some other package. Does anybody know which package that might be?
[06:43] <cramop> lists as obsolete
[06:43] <wgrant> cramop: It has been tzdata since Ubuntu 6.10.
[06:43] <cdw32> its open philh
[06:43] <philh> cdw32, right click on it and choose show in directory
[06:43] <philh> sorry, open containing folder
[06:43] <philh> cdw32, ^
[06:44] <cdw32> it says get dl link, dl website or remove
[06:44] <cramop> wgrant, any ideas why it lists as obsolete in synaptic?
[06:44] <bcarm17> does anyone know how to change the desktop font of 9.10 netbook remix?
[06:44] <philh> cdw32, with both copies?
[06:44] <technicallyrite> So does anyone know if Android is debian/ubuntu based?
[06:44] <wgrant> cramop: I suspect you've broken your software sources configuration.
[06:44] <cdw32> umm i deleted the frist copy
[06:44] <wgrant> cramop: pastebin /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:44] <Tesssa> my puter works perfect in 9.04 downloaded and tried to install 9.10 got as far as 3of6 the k/board set to UK clicked forward and jmped from 3og6 to 4of7 the partition manager that was a totally blank white box and it stuck there had to shut down and reinstall 9.04 my puter is a AMD64.anyone help

[06:46] <wgrant> marcelcohrs_: #ubuntu-de
[06:46] <CaneToad> Seems to me that USB audio devices don't get listed in the input and output section in 9.10 sound preferences, and thus you can't adjust the volume :(
[06:46] <cramop> wgrant, http://pastebin.com/d38490fa9

[06:47] <brando753> guys anyway to get a bluetooth gps reciever to work in ubuntu 9.10 i paired it up set it for geocentric services yet non of my software sees it
[06:47] <SeaPhor> cdw32, i believe philh is correct, you wer just in wrong dir...
[06:47] <wgrant> cramop: Does 'sudo apt-get update' give any errors?
[06:47] <marcelcohrs_> wgrant: thanks, bro
[06:47] <UBlondie> what's the difference between VIM and GVIM? ...is GVIM just a bit more 'graphical' ?
[06:47] <SeaPhor> cdw32, i was incorrect about the download
[06:48] <philh> SeaPhor, bed, you!
[06:48] <Trizicus> I added some wallpaper to /usr/share/backgrounds/ and it's not appearing in background location, is there anything else I have to do?
[06:48] <wesley_> Is this where I can get help with Ubuntu?  I'm having a Grub nightmare!
[06:48] <UBlondie> VIM and GVIM ...is either one better to use?
[06:48] <cramop> wgrant, no errors. Some ignores, though (IGN)
[06:48] <wgrant> UBlondie: gvim is graphical.
[06:48] <philh> cdw32, so you can't find the download directory?
[06:48] <wgrant> cramop: apt-cache policy tzdata
[06:48] <cdw32> philh so should i re download the file again, but save the file or open with archive manager
[06:48] <UBlondie> wgrant: ok ...thanks

[06:49] <Trizicus> I added some wallpaper to /usr/share/backgrounds/ and it's not appearing in background location, is there anything else I have to do?
[06:49] <KerrMD> Is there a channel specific for networking issues?
[06:49] <cdw32> ok
[06:49] <wgrant> cramop: OK, Ubuntu archive inconsistency (ie. a bug). Ignore that.
[06:49] <wgrant> cramop: Thanks for pointing it out.

[06:50] <cramop> wgrant, all right thank you
[06:50] <philh> cdw32, if you can't manage that, just download it again and save it somewhere this time instead of opening it
[06:50] <wgrant> cramop: The problem is that the version in jaunty-updates is actually greater than the version in karmic.
[06:50] <Blue1> Trizicus: I have my wall paper stuck in my home directory
[06:50] <UBlondie> I have continual problems mounting usb ext hard drive (Western Digital - MyBook (or something like that?)) ....it's an NTFS file system. It works flawlessly in Windows and Mac. Would there be any benefit in formatting the drive (NTFS)
[06:50] <wesley_> I installed Karmic - System crashed hard - Went back to 9.04 with clean install, but MBR seems to still be grub2.  How do I get it back to grub when all I have is the livecd working?
[06:50] <philh> cdw32, afk for a few mins
[06:50] <wgrant> cramop: So it sees you have a newer version than the latest one that exists, and gets a bit confused.
[06:50] <chasmarang> wgrant:when I try to update and does nothing
[06:50] <openweek0> can any body please help me with this...

[06:55] <philh> cdw32, cool, go to the desktop, right click on it and try Extract Here
 no how do i do that
[06:55] <UBlondie> Tessa ...FWIW ...I did an upgrade and some things didn't seem to get installed properly. I did a completely fresh install (formatted all partitions) and all is good ....it was a pain, but worth it. :/
[06:55] <chasmarang> wgrant: yes
[06:55] <Tesssa> yes had to reinstakk it yesterday Seca
[06:55] <KerrMD> I cannot seem to get my BCM4328 working after a fresh install of 9.10. Although it did work on the live cd. Any thoughts?
[06:55] <chasmarang> no errors
[06:55] <tc111> hellyes: yes, a swap partition of at least half installed ram should be used... what services are you running?
[06:55] <user101> My headphones don't work. only speakers work. On karmic
[06:56] <cdw32> philh done
[06:56] <wgrant> chasmarang: What if you manually do the upgrade in a termnal?
[06:56] <cbilljones> Can anyone help with recordmydesktop? cant access advanced options from gui
[06:56] <eL_pSycHo> openweek0, i think its "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" no quotes.. someone correct me if im wrong.
[06:56] <Seca> i agree with UBlondie ... was a pain .. but i too ended up doing a fresh clean install of 9.10
[06:56] <philh> cdw32, open the directory that it created
[06:56] <hellyes> tc111: not sure yet, still seting it up
[06:56] <MikeChelen> user101: look in the audio controls, see if any outputs are muted

[06:57] <UBlondie> Tessa ..bugger!  :/
[06:57] <Tesssa> if anyone knows
[06:57] <philh> cdw32, look for a runmozilla.sh or similar

[06:57] <wgrant> chasmarang: 'sudo apt-get upgrade'
[06:57] <Seca> Tesssa ... try the upgrade again ...with your fresh install ... if not ... do a new install of 9.10

[06:57] <jgoppert> can anyone tell me how to setup ldap on a server so that you can manage the admin/ cdrom group etc, they already exist on the local group file and i'm using webmin which obviously won't let me create a redundant group
[06:57] <wgrant> chasmarang: Enter your password when it asks you for it, and press Enter when it asks you if you want to continue.
[06:57] <philh> cdw32, double click it and see what happens
[06:57] <MikeChelen> user101: what sound card?
[06:57] <philh> choose run in terminal if prompted
[06:57] <tc111> hellyes: web or streaming services should have swap partition, database should have a swap partition on a drive separate from the system and database files
[06:58] <eL_pSycHo> openweek0, does your keyboard work when you have this problem? if it does then use the recovery console
[06:58] <UBlondie> What file system have you formatted drives in Tesssa?   ...maybe try a different one ..if ext3, then do ext4 ..or vise versa?  I don't know, I'm kind of plucking at straws!

[06:58] <MikeChelen> user101: what jacks are the speakers and headphones plugged in to?
[06:58] <philh> cdw32, in terminal, that way we can see output like error messages
[06:58] <hellyes> tc111: thank you! you've been very helpful!
[06:58] <eL_pSycHo> openweek0, i meant if it doesnt work.. then use the recovery consolo
[06:58] <Tesssa> so i cant partion the HD
[06:58] <tc111> hellyes: routing services, yes... samba, nfs or printing probably not
[06:58] <wgrant> chasmarang: Did it do anything?

[06:59] <Keiya_> How 'safe' and 'effective' is the Karmic upgrade?
[06:59] <mr_mojo> what is the best vpn server for the job?
[06:59] <Keiya_> Would it be better to just back up my home directory and install fresh?
[06:59] <knoppies> Keiya_, I would stay away from upgrading. And just install fresh
[06:59] <Tesssa> its got to be something in 9.10 the puter works perfect in 9.04
[06:59] <cdw32> phih terminal flashes open then closes
[06:59] <wgrant> Keiya_: For upgrades, most people have no problems.
[06:59] <wgrant> Keiya_: But some people do.
[07:00] <Wodenhelm> Greetings
[07:00] <philh> cdw32, bugger...
[07:00] <brando753> anyone know how to get bluetooth gps to work in ubuntu 9.10
[07:00] <philh> cdw32, ok, open a terminal
[07:00] <knoppies> Keiya_,  I havnt tried upgrading karmic, but I have had some previous problems. i have also heared of karmic problems (with a laptop and drivers)
[07:00] <UBlondie> Keiya_ I upgraded and some things weren't installed properly. System worked fine, but completely fresh install was *much* better
[07:00] <Seca> tessa u have all yer updates installed
[07:00] <cdw32> phih done
[07:00] <mr_mojo> brando753, what model of gps do you have?
[07:00] <MikeChelen> user101: what model netbook? might want search ubuntu forum
[07:00] <KerrMD> Anyone familiar with BCM4328 and Karmic? My wifi worked fine on the live cd yet does not after install.
[07:00] <cdw32> philh: done
[07:00] <Tesssa> yes i do Seca
[07:00] <brando753> mr_mojo: generic :P no brand name
[07:00] <philh> cdw32, cd ~/Desktop/firefox
[07:00] <user101> MikeChelen : Asus 1000HE
[07:00] <philh> that's a guess
[07:01] <philh> if the directory isn't called firefox, adjust accordingly
[07:01] <Seca> damn that retarded isue
[07:01] <mr_mojo> brando753, what version of ubuntu are you running?
[07:01] <brando753> mr_mojo: 9.10
[07:01] <Tesssa> this problem has been ongoing from day 1 of 9.10 release Seca
[07:01] <hellyes> has anyone been able to share ubuntu w/ windows 7 fine in 9.04 but now you can't in 9.10?
[07:01] <theycallmejeff> a little out of date but i'm using 8.10 and my only problem is that my sound hasn't worked since i did the install.
[07:01] <Seca> i just downloaded the 9.10 and loaded onto my pen drive ... booted into live mode .. and hit the install button ... and away it went
[07:02] <KerrMD> hellyes, Can't even get my wifi up to find out. =(
[07:02] <tc111> KerrMD: try 'sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude --reinstall install bcmwl-kernel-source' and then select the STA driver from 'System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers'
[07:02] <UBlondie> I did the same as Seca ...worked no problem.  .. Tesssa
[07:02] <cdw32> philh ok
[07:03] <KerrMD> tc111, I've tried the STA driver. It goes throught he motions and then does nothing.
[07:03] <Tesssa> a pen drive ?
[07:03] <UBlondie> Tesssa  ...yes
[07:03] <philh> cdw32, ./run-mozilla.sh
[07:03] <UBlondie> Tesssa ...memory stick. What ever you want to call it
[07:03] <user101> MikeChelen : It is like this from time i added options snd-hda-intel model=basic to alsa-base.conf
[07:03] <philh> cdw32, if you begin to type a filename and press tab, bash will complete it for you
[07:03] <Tesssa> looks like i will have to bye one
[07:03] <Tesssa> or buy even
[07:04] <UBlondie> hehe
 please can you help me with what option to choose from now
[07:04] <philh> so you could type ./run- and press tab
[07:04] <tc111> KerrMD: correct, open a terminal and type 'sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude reinstall bcmwl-kernel-source'. there is a known bug with the installer
[07:04] <eL_pSycHo> openweek0, what options do you get?
[07:04] <Tesssa> or wait untill 10.04 comes out
[07:04] <KerrMD> tc111, I tried and get erros saying that the addresses cannot ber esolved
[07:04] <KurtKraut> I'm making a shell script that will play a sound if an error occurr. How can I detect the current default sound for error in Gnome?
[07:04] <cdw32> philh:  run-mozilla.sh: Cannot execute
[07:04] <UBlondie> Have you been trying to install from LiveCD till now Tesssa?
[07:04] <openweek0> thre are 4 options
[07:05] <Tesssa> yes Ublondie
[07:05] <tc111> KerrMD: you'll need to be plugged into a wired connection to perform the update and reinstall
[07:05] <philh> cdw32, how about ./firefox ?
[07:05] <napster> Hello friends I need to upgrade to 9.10 from 9.04. But I'm not connected to internet and need to download updates from another computer..!
 -a --all Reconfigure all packages
[07:05] <cdw32> philh this is what i typed in: christopher@christopher:~/Desktop/firefox$ ./run-mozilla.sh
[07:05] <MikeChelen> user101: why did you need to modify that file?
[07:05] <openweek0> and so on for -u -f and -p
[07:05] <openweek0> do you want me to list them as well
[07:05] <user101> MikeChelen: to get surround sound.

[07:05] <KerrMD> tc111, It makes no difference if I am ethernet or not. I've had the ethernet connected all this time and cannot seem to get even that working
[07:05] <UBlondie> Tesssa ...is the CD actually ok? ...as in, has it been tried on other machines at all?  Just trying to come up with ideas?
[07:06] <Tesssa> but if they had made a better job of 9.10 this wouldnt be happening
[07:06] <theycallmejeff> napster : download the iso and burn it like you would for a clean install, but just run it as an update package.
[07:06] <cdw32> philh it open a web browser windo
[07:06] <MikeChelen> user101: oh, is that digital output? maybe it needs to be switched to analog for the headphones
[07:06] <philh> cdw32, did you already have firefox running?
[07:06] <eL_pSycHo> openweek0, backup your original Xorg first... sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
[07:06] <Tesssa>  brand new cd write only
[07:06] <cdw32> no
 I think i need to use these options instead of -xserver in the command that you gave
[07:06] <philh> ok, then go to help > about
[07:06] <UBlondie> Tesssa ....try the USB stick. If you don't want to buy one, maybe someone has one you can borrow?
 ok wait
[07:06] <napster> theycallmejeff: But I need to keep my customisations in jaunty
[07:07] <user101> MikeChelen: every time??
[07:07] <tc111> KerrMD: what is your system? what wired chipset do you have? ('sudo lspci -vnn | grep net -i')
[07:07] <MikeChelen> user101: just to see if it works, there might be a better way
[07:07] <theycallmejeff> napster; they'll stay. it just updates basic package cores as if you were to run it from the package manager
[07:07] <philh> cdw32, can you check Help > About to make sure it's the right version?
[07:08] <cdw32> philh wait i had the dl manager open..i closed and re typed the cmd... ./firefox
[07:08] <KerrMD> tc111, all it lists is the BCM4328
[07:08] <philh> cdw32, ah, ok
[07:08] <cdw32> philh a new web broswer opened, but not to my homepage as before
 it says cp: cannot stat '/etc/x11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory... what do i do now... what does it mean
[07:09] <jepong> anyone using netbeans on ubuntu?
[07:09] <napster> theycallmejeff: But in the upgrade notes they suggest me to apply all the updates for jaunty. How can I do that. I'm using internet from another computer with windows...?
[07:09] <dread> jhk;
[07:09] <jepong> can't seem to configure web application project.... no jdk or tomcat server configured. :(
[07:09] <user101> MikeChelen: nothing comes if i change connector output to analog headphones
[07:10] <eL_pSycHo> openweek0, it means what it says.. either the file isnt in that folder or that folder doesnt exist altogether... umm... not sure if its different on Karmic... let me check.. or maybe someone here knows????
[07:10] <jgoppert> hi guys, how do i manage cdrom/ admin/ sudo groups with ldap? it seems it overlaps with the local /etc/group file
[07:10] <Andorin> Um, guys...? I just came back from being afk. My computer was asleep, but no matter what I did, no matter what keys I pressed, my computer wouldn't wake up. I had to shut it down manually and then restart it. Running Karmic. Why did this happen?
[07:10] <tc111> KerrMD: what rev is the wireless card?
[07:10] <napster> theycallmejeff: ..?
[07:11] <KerrMD> tc111, 03
[07:11] <theycallmejeff> napster: in that case i'm not 100% sure how to do it. what exactly do you mean by customizations?
[07:11] <yos> I want to install windows to a small partition that I made...how do I configure grub2 before I do that ?
[07:11] <philh> cdw32, is anything working?
[07:11] <jtz]blue> back bac
[07:12] <napster> theycallmejeff: Like softwares I've installed, themes, Some files in home folder...
[07:12] <cdw32> philh am i correct in assuming that the new version was installed
[07:13] <cdw32> as in the videos
[07:13] <theycallmejeff> napster: those will not be touched. running an update disc will only change core os files. your themes and installed programs will all still be there provided they are compatible.
[07:13] <philh> cdw32, not installed as such, you've just got a working version in a directory on your desktop
[07:13] <kelli> i've down loaded videos when i tried to open says i need a launch application how do i fix
[07:13] <tc111> KerrMD: is this a dell notebook?
[07:13] <KerrMD> tc111, Yes, XPS M1530
[07:13] <philh> cdw32, as in what videos?
[07:13] <user101> MikeChelen: more fun is if i connect jack it plays in both headphone and speaker.
[07:14] <napster> theycallmejeff: But how can i update my jaunty...? Dist-upgrade should be after update as they say...!
[07:14] <cdw32> philh i think everything is working
[07:14] <yellowrooster> how can i figure out what video card i have?
[07:14] <DysonReturns> Greets gents, what do i need to install to get allow remote ssh access?
[07:14] <KerrMD> yellowrooster, lspci in terminal
[07:15] <philh> cdw32, brilliant, well done, you might want to create launchers for that version of firefox on your desktop, so that you don't have to browse into its directory every time you want to run it
[07:15] <xaves> Anyone knows what is the difference between google chrome and the chromium web browser?
[07:15] <theycallmejeff> napster: updating will change it to intrepid. you are trying to move from 9.04 to 9.10 right?
[07:15] <kelli> i cant reopen pics i've down loaded says i need a launch app how do i fix it?
[07:15] <BellerophonRider> Hi
[07:15] <napster> theycallmejeff: interpid..????
[07:15] <cdw32> philh, that is another story
[07:15] <napster> theycallmejeff: ????
[07:16] <BellerophonRider> Are you all experienced Ubuntu users?
[07:16] <philh> cdw32, indeed, it is, and i'm afraid not one i can help you with at the moment
[07:16] <yellowrooster> Thanks, Dr. Kerr
[07:16] <napster> theycallmejeff: I'm trying to move from 9.04 to 9.10
[07:16] <theycallmejeff> napster: intrepid ibex is the name given to 9.10 the same as 9.04 was called jaunty jackalope
[07:16] <KerrMD> yellowrooster, I'm not a Doctor but welcome
[07:16] <BellerophonRider> How do I register?
[07:16] <yellowrooster> kerrmd, 8-) MD is your initials?
[07:16] <hellyes> philh: remember when I said I couldn't get ubuntu to share a drive w/ windows 7?
[07:17] <KerrMD> yellowrooster,  Yep
[07:17] <napster> theycallmejeff: 9.10 is karmic koala I think...Am I right...?
[07:17] <philh> hellyes, yep
[07:17] <hellyes> philh: I just downgraded back to 9.04 and it works great
[07:17] <kelli> any one able to help me recover pics i have down loaded?
[07:17] <hellyes> no changes from the windows 7 side
[07:17] <philh> hellyes, interesting
[07:18] <theycallmejeff> napster: you're absolutely right i'm tired from both work and school today. i got confused
[07:18] <user101> 9.10 does not shutdown ;with I/o buffer error it hangs. extremely painful.
[07:18] <oriumpor> anyone in here running Karmic Koala?
[07:18] <oriumpor> *crickets*
[07:18] <oriumpor> :P
[07:18] <hellyes> I think it might be a bug
[07:18] <tc111> KerrMD: 64 or 32-bit ubuntu?
[07:18] <dread> People at me on a server it is possible to look through freely contents of folders through a browser. What to do?
[07:18] <cdw32> philh i did it
[07:18] <wgrant> hellyes: It's definitely a bug.
[07:18] <user101> oriumpor: s
[07:18] <KerrMD> tc111, x64
[07:18] <napster> theycallmejeff: Whats your proffession..?
[07:18] <eL_pSycHo> oriumpor, i am
[07:18] <DigitalKiwi> oriumpor: nop
[07:18] <napster> ioneye: Hi...
[07:18] <oriumpor> is it worth the upgrade from 9.04?
[07:18] <KerrMD> oriumpor, Yes, I am running Karmic. NOt getting much on the network side but everthing else works.
[07:18] <cdw32> philh: thanks so much for your patience
[07:19] <theycallmejeff> napster: i'm a inbound customer service representative for time warner. new york division.
[07:19] <eL_pSycHo> oriumpor, no it is not
[07:19] <philh> cdw32, np, sorry to have confused you so much to begin with
[07:19] <wgrant> eL_pSycHo: That's a matter of opinion.
[07:19] <malv> karmic is underclocking my cpu for some reason
[07:19] <user101> oriumpor: no
[07:19] <malv> even when i explicitely set it to 3 ghz instead of 2 it doesn't let me
[07:19] <BellerophonRider> what is karmic?
[07:19] <wgrant> For most Intel graphics users, 9.10 will be a massive improvement over 9.04.
[07:19] <eL_pSycHo> wgrant
[07:19] <cdw32> philh it is ok...
[07:19] <napster> theycallmejeff: Ok so you can't help me...?
[07:19] <oriumpor> wgrant: hmmm way to bait me ;)
[07:19] <eL_pSycHo> wgrant, well.. he asked me didnt he?
[07:19] <KerrMD> BellerophonRider, Karmic Koala is Ubuntu 9.10
[07:19] <user101> oriumpor: lot of problems in karmic if you upgrade. do a fresh install.
[07:19] <technicallyrite> BellerophonRider: Mostly? I would venture to say anyone here that's been using Ubuntu for any amount of time has gotten their hands dirty and would be glad to help
[07:19] <kelli> anyone here good with down load problems?
[07:20] <BellerophonRider> Hi tech
[07:20] <theycallmejeff> napster: thats the way i have done it in the past.and it worked for me.
[07:20] <KerrMD> kelli, What kind of download problems?
[07:20] <eL_pSycHo> oriumpor, ok.. in my personal opinioon and experience it isnt.. there.
[07:20] <BellerophonRider> I am trying to get my hands dirty using the terminal
[07:20] <oriumpor> eL_pSycHo: 10-4, I'm not really keen on reloading this system a third time. I'll wait.
[07:20] <kelli> say i need a launch app to open the videos i down loaded KerrMD
[07:21] <KerrMD> kelli, Is it an flv video?
[07:21] <napster> theycallmejeff: How can I download updates for a computer from another computer?
[07:21] <eL_pSycHo> oriumpor, i did a fresh install twice and i still cant automount my CD/DVD drive.. worked fine in 9.04
[07:21] <wrapster> i was wondering if i can create virual interfaces ontop of the physical NIC and assign a different ip to it?
[07:21] <tc111> KerrMD: looks like the primary option is ndiswrapper and this driver: ftp://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R151517.EXE using the bcmwl564.sys file (the EXE is actually a zipped file, just extract)
[07:21] <wgrant> eL_pSycHo: Have you filed a bug?
[07:21] <kelli> KerrMD,  mp4
[07:21] <wrapster> i tried using something like this.. ifconfig <iface-name> dhcp
[07:21] <KerrMD> tc111, Thanks, clipboarded
[07:22] <technicallyrite> BellerophonRider: Theres a bash channel on freenode as well if that helps.
[07:22] <wrapster> (coming from solairs background... but there is no such option here.
[07:22] <KerrMD> kelli, You may have to install the proper codec for it. Someone else would be able to help you with that
[07:22] <eL_pSycHo> wgrant, i read on the forums it's filed.. (yes, im not the only one).. i didnt check though
[07:22] <BellerophonRider> how do I get to a bash channel?
[07:22] <napster> theycallmejeff: Are you busy...?
[07:22] <BellerophonRider> what is a bash channel?
[07:22] <kelli> can anyone help i need a mp4 decoder
[07:23] <napster> kelli: Ask
[07:23] <theycallmejeff> napster: i went to the website and downloaded the iso for the next one up (9.04to9.10) not busy. slow typer.
[07:23] <kelli> ask?
[07:24] <napster> kelli: I mean you have to be specific...!
[07:24] <wolfslack> What is IBus (the homepage has no information whatsoever (only in chinese)) i know its an "intelligent input bus". Which really doesnt clarify ;) It was installed on my system after updating to 9.10 along with Akonadi.
[07:24] <mr_mojo> kelli, what version of ubuntu and what program are you using to play it back?
[07:24] <BellerophonRider> napster: I use remastersys to keep data
[07:24] <kelli> napster, can i pm
[07:24] <oriumpor> how does it know I don't need those packages for other applications that aren't managed by apt?
[07:24] <oriumpor> hmm
[07:24] <Andorin> Um, guys...? I just came back from being afk. My computer was asleep, but no matter what I did, no matter what keys I pressed, my computer wouldn't wake up. I had to shut it down manually and then restart it. Running Karmic. Why did this happen?
[07:24] <kelli> 9.04
[07:24] <Jester05> hey guys, i'm having trouble w/ my system
[07:24] <KerrMD> napster, She downloaded an mp4 video and was told she needed a launch app for it
[07:24] <napster> wolfslack: It is an alternative for SCIM
[07:24] <wgrant> wolfslack: It's an input method for complex (Chinese, for example) characters -- a replacement for SCIM.
[07:25] <mr_mojo> kelli, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats and click the link to install the codecs
[07:25] <Jester05> i'm setting my ipp to be static in /etc/network/interfaces but for some reason after i reboot it goes HDCP again
[07:25] <napster> kelli: You can use vlc...!
[07:25] <wgrant> Andorin: Just pressing the power button didn't wake it at all?
[07:25] <UBlondie> I'm thinking of having a look at using either VIM or GVIM for webdevelopment. If I use GVIM, can I still use the plug-ins that are avail for VIM (sorry if that's a bit of a dumb question?)
[07:25] <eL_pSycHo> Andorin, becuase youre running Karmic? hehe sorry... had to say that.
[07:25] <Andorin> wgrant: Nope.
[07:25] <Andorin> :P
[07:25] <napster> kelli: No need of any sort of codecs if you use vlc
[07:25] <kelli> yes can use vlc
[07:25] <tc111> KerrMD: looks like a rare chipset that had a couple of bugs filed against it a while back. others used the cd/dvd's released by dell to install ubuntu as it contained the drivers... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=6f1e9396b01da8fb109ca98de2c540f2&t=762770
[07:25] <wgrant> Andorin: So the sleep light remained on or flashing or whatever it does when it is asleep?
[07:26] <UBlondie> napster ....vlc rocks!  :)
[07:26] <napster> UBlondie: Yup
[07:26] <DigitalKiwi> smplayer > vlc
[07:26] <KerrMD> tc111, Thanks a ton for the information. I am looking into it as we speak.
[07:26] <BellerophonRider> This is my first time using this channel but it seems hard to tell if it will help
[07:26] <yos> mplayer > vlc
[07:26] <UBlondie> napster:  was that Yup, to my GVIM question?
[07:26] <Andorin> wgrant: Maybe "asleep" isn't the right term? The monitor goes dark and its power light shifts from green to yellow. The computer was still on and running, but in that post-screensaver mode. It looked just fine aside from the fact that the monitor wouldn't bring my screen back up. (I don't think the monitor is the problem.)
[07:26] <oriumpor> BellerophonRider: try /join #bash
[07:27] <wgrant> UBlondie: Even if napster's wasn't, I say "yup" too.
[07:27] <oriumpor> in your irc client
[07:27] <napster> UBlondie: Yup = Yep = Yes Its a sort slang...!
[07:27] <KerrMD> tc111, I don't see a Karmic image. I suppose I can try the hard way while I wait for one. Again, thanks a bunch for the help.
[07:27] <wgrant> Andorin: Ah. Next time that happens, try pressing Alt+SysRq+K. That will terminate your session, but might bring the login screen back, and is a useful thing to know for further debugging.
[07:27] <UBlondie> napster: ...haha, yeah, got that ....I had asked a couple of questions ...wasn't sure which one you were referring too  ;)
[07:27] <UBlondie> wgrant: sweet ...thanks guys ...   ciao
[07:27] <BellerophonRider> oriumpor:  that sounds helpful but what does it mean?  do I type it in this box?
[07:28] <technicallyrite> BellerophonRider: Bash is a common name for Bourne Again Shell, which is what the default shell (terminal) in most unix/Linux Operating systems are based on. Wikipedia has a page on it.
[07:28] <Andorin> wgrant: Okay, thanks. Sounds okay other than the fact that I don't see a SysRq key on my keyboard. I can't remember- does it go by a different name sometimes?
[07:28] <osirisx11> what is the difference between: "unmount" "eject" and "safely remove device" on my ipod context menu?
[07:28] <wolfslack> napster and wgrant thanks for the reply. And its installed per default in 9.10?
[07:28] <wgrant> Andorin: It should be the same key as Print Screen.
[07:28] <akorpija_> hey guys, just wondering if someone can help me figure out why my external display keeps on dimming while i watch a movie/video for around 10 minutes? i've gone through power settings and disabled anything that would force it to do so...
[07:28] <technicallyrite> BellerophonRider: You might be able to do most things through the GUI until you get more familiar with he command line.
[07:28] <oriumpor> BellerophonRider: that allows you to connect to another channel, and you type it in this window most likely.
[07:29] <napster> wolfslack: Which one...?
[07:29] <BellerophonRider> technically rite Does that mean I type into the terminal?
 sorry i got disconnected .. did you find any solution to my problem
[07:29] <BellerophonRider> #bash
[07:29] <DigitalKiwi> to whoever was learning vim http://www.vi-improved.org/tutorial.php
[07:29] <tc111> KerrMD: try here too: http://en.community.dell.com/wikis/linux/ubuntu-9-10-factory-reinstallation.aspx
[07:29] <oriumpor> BellerophonRider: but like everyone is saying you've got gobs of stuff you can configure and manipulate in the GUI
[07:30] <osirisx11> -what is the difference-?? between: "unmount" "eject" and "safely remove device" on my ipod context menu?
[07:30] <wolfslack> napster 9.10
[07:30] <KerrMD> tc111, Thanks
[07:30] <mr_mojo> osirisx11, what program are you using?
[07:30] <DillyofaPickle> Off-Topic:  Anyone know why The Daily Show is airing but isn't coming out on certain networks?
[07:30] <wgrant> mr_mojo: Those options are in Nautilus.
[07:30] <eL_pSycHo> openweek8, did you try anything?
[07:30] <wgrant> !ot | DillyofaPickle
[07:31] <osirisx11> mr_mojo: gnome
[07:31] <osirisx11> mr_mojo: nautilis
[07:31] <wolfslack> napster: ibus on 9.10
[07:31] <napster> wolfslack: OK
[07:31] <napster> wolfslack: Yes its installed..!
[07:31] <Jordan_U> osirisx11: All of them will let you safely remove your ipod, eject will 'disconnect' from the ipod so you would need to plug it back in again to use it again ( rather than just remount it ) and safely remove I'm not sure about
[07:31] <ziggy> is there any way to Run APPLE on Virtural Box
[07:32] <eL_pSycHo> openweek8, try this to generate the xorg.conf    sudo Xorg -configure
[07:32] <talsemgeest> ziggy: Not legally
[07:32] <wgrant> ziggy: You mean Mac OS X?
[07:32] <Appiah> ziggy http://www.osx86project.org/
[07:32] <ziggy> so how can i unlegally
[07:32] <ziggy> :)
[07:32] <oriumpor> very carefully
[07:32] <napster> wolfslack: You can use it to inout your local language...And mine is 'malayalam' works fine with iBus and swanalekha
[07:32] <Appiah> beacuse MacOSX is made to only run on mac hardware
[07:32] <ziggy> yes OS X
[07:32] <technicallyrite> BellerophonRider: Does that help? I would also tune into some of these oher conversations or the more organized ubuntuforums
[07:32] <tc111> KerrMD: http://linux.dell.com/files/ubuntu/karmic/iso-images/ubuntu-9.10-dell_X02.iso
[07:33] <oriumpor> and just cause they write it in the EULA doesn't mean it's legal.  If you own the OS you should have the right do run it on a toaster.
[07:33] <KerrMD> tc111, Thanks. That is the x64 iso?
[07:33] <wgrant> oriumpor: That is unclear at this point.
[07:33] <tc111> KerrMD: they only do i386 AFAIK
[07:34] <polandchris> Hello I have a Nokia 5800 Xpress Music. Ubuntu wont detect the phone when plugged with usb
[07:34] <talsemgeest> ziggy: Perhaps you will be better off with the mac4lin project, it isnt quite mac but at least it will feel like it is :)
[07:34] <KerrMD> Ok thanks. I am searching near that url for the 64
[07:34] <tc111> KerrMD: something about proprietary drivers being more compatible
[07:34] <eL_pSycHo> openweek8, what graphics card do you have and how did you install those drivers in 9.04???
[07:34] <talsemgeest> ziggy: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mac4lin/
[07:34] <wolfslack> napser: okay, its not activated right now and my native language (danish) works fine so i guess i can remove it without any problems?
[07:34] <technicallyrite> ziggy: You can run os x server legally, but I think you are still supposed to do it on a mac. That sounds dirty.
[07:34] <wolfslack> napster: okay, its not activated right now and my native language (danish) works fine so i guess i can remove it without any problems?
[07:35] <ziggy> ty ty ty
[07:35] <napster> wolfslack: If you don't need it, then you can...!
[07:36] <stimpie> could someone tell me how to enable my fingerprint reader in karmic?
[07:37] <technicallyrite> talsemgeest: That is more appearance than anything.
[07:37] <SetiAmon> so anyone here have issues with x-fi extreme music on karmic?I have static distortions
[07:37] <talsemgeest> technicallyrite: I know, but it is the closest *legal* way to mac on the linux platform
[07:37] <c_nick> kopete vs pidgin .. which one is better
[07:37] <osirisx11> does anyone know what Safely remove hardware does?
[07:37] <osirisx11> and how it differs from eject and unmount
[07:38] <oriumpor> hmm
[07:38] <osirisx11> and yes thank you Jordan_U
[07:38] <oriumpor> well crud
[07:39] <talsemgeest> osirisx11: As far as I know, they do basically the same thing
[07:39] <osirisx11> then there wouldn't be another option?
[07:39] <osirisx11> or its a bug
[07:40] <oriumpor> oh grand
[07:40] <talsemgeest> osirisx11: I really dont have a clue. I just choose one of the 3 randomly when I remove my flash drive
[07:40] <napster> osirisx11: You are thinking logically
[07:40] <oriumpor> failed the upgrade
[07:40] <oriumpor> hmm
[07:40] <eL_pSycHo> oriumpor, i think just like windows, with OSX you dont own the operating system.. you own a lisence to run... its different
[07:40] <napster> talsemgeest: Me too
[07:41] <KerrMD> tc111, What do you think the possibility is of me using that iso as a source for updater and/or stealing the driver from it instead of an install media?
[07:42] <oriumpor> smeg
[07:42] <oriumpor> ok, so my root volume is mounted ro now after the upgrade
[07:43] <oriumpor> can I just force mount it rw?
[07:44] <Anquietas> hello, I have a very odd problem... I found a dozen of topics on the Forums, but a not a single solution.
[07:44] <Anquietas> The problem is that compiz won't start on my PC... I've upgraded to Karmic from Jaunty... "Desktop Effects could not be loaded"... I have an Intel Onboard Card... and when I check compiz settings it says that "Software Rastetizer in Use". Please advice
[07:44] <tc111> KerrMD: the driver on the media would be 32-bit. you're probably better to uncomment the cd/dvd line in your /etc/apt/sources.list file and install ndiswrapper and use a USB key to get the bcmwl564.sys file onto the machine. that way you can stay 64-bit all the way... do you have more than 3GB of ram installed where 64-bit would be useful or are you running some app that needs 64-bit functionality?
[07:45] <oriumpor> oh beauty firefox won't load
[07:45] <KerrMD> tc111, Yes, 4GB of ram and an additional 4GB swap
[07:45] <oriumpor> I suppose nothing will that needs to make a lock file
[07:46] <tc111> KerrMD: then you're better to go with ndiswrapper for now...
[07:46] <KerrMD> tc111, I will try that. Thank you for the input and help/research
[07:46] <Anquietas> can anyone help me ?
[07:46] <Yondering> was pulseaudio removed in 9.10?
[07:46] <tc111> KerrMD: not a prob
[07:46] <stimpie> Anquietas, dont ask to ask, just ask
[07:46] <napster> anyone got the link to Ubuntu 9.10 repository dvd...?
[07:46] <GLG> nobody will talk on the conky room some help please
[07:47] <Anquietas> stimpie: I've already asked my question a few minutes ago
[07:47] <mjbrooks> I like the timeline graphic on repositories in launchpad, what is being used to generate those?
[07:47] <Anquietas> The problem is that compiz won't start on my PC... I've upgraded to Karmic from Jaunty... "Desktop Effects could not be loaded"... I have an Intel Onboard Card... and when I check compiz settings it says that "Software Rastetizer in Use". Please advice
[07:48] <mjbrooks> Anquietas, Intel Onboard graphics are problematic
[07:48] <crawler> hello, does anyone know of a way to switch screen resolutions via terminal??  i'm trying to make a single click launcher for NVIDIA X Server Settings, to easily change between 1024x768 and the monitor's native resolution of 1680x1050.
[07:48] <crawler> or maybe i can make a shell script for this..
[07:48] <Anquietas> yes, but I resolved it somehow the last time... and on my laptop which also uses Intel Card, compiz is working perfectly...
[07:49] <eL_pSycHo> Anquietas, why dont try reinstalling the display driver.. and yes intel cards are problematic...
[07:49] <hellyes> does anybody think that the problem sharing drives between ubuntu 9.10 and win 7 has to do with the fact that it is server as opposed to the desktop 9.04 which I can can share eindoes 7 drives?
[07:49] <napster> anyone got the link to Ubuntu 9.10 repository dvd...?
[07:49] <Anquietas> eL_pSycHo, and how do I reinstall the drivers ?
[07:49] <lilyshu> crawler : gksu nvidia-settings?
[07:49] <hellyes> eindoes = windows 7
[07:50] <eL_pSycHo> from synaptic... search for intel and you might find your display driver... remove it and then install it again.
[07:50] <napster> anyone got the link to Ubuntu 9.10 repository dvd...?
[07:50] <crawler> lilyshu: well, i understand there is a GUI for this, but i'm trying to make a single-click launcher.
[07:50] <eL_pSycHo> Anquietas, from synaptic... search for intel and you might find your display driver... remove it and then install it again.
[07:51] <Anquietas> ok, thank you
[07:51] <stimpie> hellyes, just an idea, you could write 2 configs with the different resolutions and use nvidia-settings --config=custom.config
[07:51] <oriumpor> frag
[07:52] <eL_pSycHo> Anquietas, you didnt install it manually before right? (manually as in downloaded a binary file form the internet)
[07:52] <Anquietas> I didn't
[07:52] <mjbrooks> crawler, use xrandr
[07:52] <eL_pSycHo> Anquietas, ok then try synaptic.. might help.
[07:52] <Anquietas> brb restarting X...
[07:52] <crawler> mjbrooks: thanks, i will look into this xD
[07:53] <mjbrooks> crawler, you can also CTRL-ALT-+ and CTRL-ALT-- to cycle between available resolutions
[07:53] <mjbrooks> crawler, + and - on the numeric keypad that is
[07:54] <crawler> mjbrooks: thank you again.  xrandr is just the thing i was looking for!  have a blessed evening :-)

[08:01] <Yondering> hola.. has anybody noticed a problem with the gnome-volume-control-applet process in karmik?  Mine seems to be displaying a rather massive memory leak, but it's intermittent.  I can't figure out if it's wine or another app that causes it, though.
[08:02] <yos> zaoul1, I'm going to install windows on a small partition and I need to know the command to install grub 2
 i dont know what graphics card do i have ...but it got installed automatically
[08:02] <SetiAmon> I am making some progress on my xfi music sound issues.I found after installing oss my audio distortions disappeared,but i had no keyboard control of my volume,
[08:02] <zaoul1> yos: I thought grub2 came with 9.10? .. are you trying to add windows to grub you mean?
[08:03] <zaoul1> yos: or did you install windows after and it blasted grub away?
 and by the way running that command gave me this output. " Xorg is not able to detect your mouse. Edit the file and correct the device"  YOur Xorg.conf file is /root/xorg.conf.new
[08:03] <yos> zaoul1, I will be installing windows now so it will rewrite the mbr...I just need to know what command to reinstall grub 2
[08:04] <zaoul1> yos: well it will be .. commands
 now what do i need to do?
[08:04] <zaoul1> oh well
[08:04] <zaoul1> yos: the live cd recovery should do it

[08:06] <napster> vegombrei: Are you new to ubuntu..?
[08:07] <user_> hi guys.. i'm manipulating init scripts on my machine - I want service 1 to be stopped only AFTER service 2 is stopped. Do I use "Should-Stop 2" for this ?
[08:07] <eL_pSycHo> openweek8: now you need to copy your new xorg over to the x11 dir... like this..  sudo cp /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:07] <vegombrei> napster: somewhat .. 3 mts. i guess
[08:07] <bradpitt> napster : ftp://kambing.ui.edu/pub/ubuntu-repository/

[08:13] <bcarm17> does anyone know how to change the icon font color in netbook remix 9.10?
[08:13] <mipz0r> vegombrei: metacity is a window manager
[08:14] <vegombrei> mipz0r: oh ok ..
[08:14] <bcarm17> hi all, i need a bit of help
[08:14] <mipz0r> vegombrei, it's the program that draws the windows the way you see them... and also the menus and everything else.. sometimes the background, and with another applications, even the screensaver etc
[08:15] <Lint> Menus work without metacity
[08:15] <oriumpor> ok that was bizarro
[08:15] <oriumpor> my background just changed
[08:15] <oriumpor> while doing the dist-upgrade
[08:15] <chrispitzer> anyone know how I get the encryption passphrase ubuntu is encrypting my homefolder with...?
[08:15] <mipz0r> gnome, for example is not actually a window manager since it is a whole desktop enviroment with a window manager (u can set a custom one}, desktop manager, file manager, a whole bunch o' appz for office and media, and a control panel
[08:15] <Lint> oriumpor, it should be some orange cr*p one
[08:15] <ohletmeinnowjesu> hi guys , i have a usb drive whose integrity i need to check, is there a fat32 "scandisk" utility/command that I can use?
 still i am getting a white screen with a frozen mouse.. can see anything on the screen ... HDD is showing activity though
[08:16] <mipz0r> oriumpor, that's because it has done the "ubuntu-desktop" upgrade
[08:16] <mipz0r> ;)
[08:16] <mipz0r> openweek8, what sort of mouse u got?
[08:16] <vegombrei> mipz0r: oh cool ... i need to get into all that .. i got a core i7 with 6 gb ram and 2 gb on display .. i was hoping to go absolutely flat out with the new ubuntu64
[08:16] <om26er> aha
[08:16] <oriumpor> lol, it coulda warned me, it just transitioned to it and I was like, ahh crud did my monitor just go funny
[08:16] <Yondering> hola.. has anybody noticed a conflict between wine and the gnome-volume-control-applet process?  I've just installed Ubuntu 9.10 and the process seems to have a memory leak that only shows its face when I've got a wine app running.
[08:17] <openweek8> mip0r its a touch pad on a lenovo laptop

[08:17] <oriumpor> fsck.msdos /dev/<device>
[08:17] <stimpie> polandchris, sound preferences -> input
 i did not do anything specific for video for 9.04 it got automatically installed

[08:20] <ermeyers> Help please: Regarding documentation found on help.ubuntu.com.  When you think something should be added to "Official Documentation," do you write a bug on launchpad for "ubuntu-docs" in general, or is there a more specific target for me to find.  I would like to see some more info in the server guide.  Thanks.

[08:26] <mipz0r> openweek8: when u insert the flash drive, u can type just "mount"
[08:26] <mipz0r> and check if it is mounted
[08:26] <Jordan_U> yos: Do you want to install grub legacy or grub2?
[08:26] <mipz0r> eL_pSycHo, that's weird :) even my desktop does that. I upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 alpha/beta and then final.

[08:38] <mipz0r> I think I'm forfeiting... lol
[08:39] <eL_pSycHo> openweek8:  what is the mount point for your flash drive???
 on mine it looks as /dev/sda5 on /media/Storage type fuseblk (rw, nosuid, nodev, allow_other, blksize=40)
[08:39] <mipz0r> fuseblk? :O
