[15:32] <askreet> t0rc, Also check 'man bash' to see what special characters you can use.  For example \w is your currect directory, etc.
[15:33] <yorick> it reports under windows as aiptek
[15:33] <askreet> yorick, What isn't working?  The touchscreen?
[15:33] <yorick> but there are 20.000 guides for these things and I don't know which to follow
[15:33] <yorick> askreet: it gets input, but it freezes when I click, and the input is only relative
[15:34] <yorick> so I think this is one of those aiptek tablets with wacom chipset
[15:34] <matteo1990> hw to download only unread mail on evolution? (i have 4000 messages in my email and it will take years..)
[15:34] <yorick> it reports as WALTOP International Corp. Slim Tablet
[15:34] <t0rc> excellent, thanks askreet
[15:35] <lingam1> How would I run a program in ubuntu allowing it maximum system usage?
[15:35] <askreet> lingam1, "maximum"?
[15:36] <yorick> it appears like the wacom driver is not recognizing it
[15:36] <Polydwarf> lingam : probably check out running it wiht the nice command and boost its priority that way
[15:36] <askreet> Polydwarf, I wasn't sure if that's what he meant or not.  :P
[15:36] <lingam1> Thanks for the hint Poly!
[15:36] <Polydwarf> hey, I had to feel like I know *something* :)
[15:36] <askreet> Polydwarf, That's not the first answer I've seen you give ;)
[15:37] <medelin7> Hello
[15:37] <jcc1> t0rc: Here is a sample file and also an entire document on Bash, http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/sample-bashrc.html
[15:37] <askreet> medelin7, Hello.
[15:37] <Polydwarf> lol, I know; I used to be a gentoo nerd and that does give you a certain basic education :)
[15:37] <Galban> Is it Blu-Ray ROM`s supposed to be detected by  Ubuntu (linux)? I know there are software restrictions for Blu-Ray on Linux. Those restrictions are for the ``hardware`` too?
[15:37] <askreet> Polydwarf, Yeah I started on Gentoo -- good way to learn the system internals and such.
[15:37] <addajones> this is pretty OT, but does anyone know where i can find a free uk proxy server? i am trying to use bbc iplayer out of the country....
[15:37] <bobbytek> how does ubuntu know what drivers to use for display, soundcard, etc.?
[15:37] <medelin7> What are you talking about
[15:37] <jcc1> http://tldp.org/LDP has a lot of good docs in general
[15:38] <askreet> bobbytek, X loads drivers based on vendor hardware ID #s, AFAIK.
[15:38] <bobbytek> askreet: where does it get them from?
[15:38] <Polydwarf> askreet : ayup.. as long as you can follow instructions to the letter, it's good for learning.
[15:38] <bobbytek> prepackaged?
[15:38] <yorick> so how do I get my tablet to work as a proper tablet
[15:39] <askreet> bobbytek,  It gets the hardware IDs from your hardware, and the drivers from the prepackages drivers included with Ubuntu.
[15:39] <jcc1> yorick: doesn't google <your system> + linux give you any good install sites?
[15:39] <protojay> addajones, http://www.xroxy.com/proxy-country-GB.htm
[15:39] <askreet> Polydwarf, If you start on Ubuntu, you'll never know how to build a kernel (or rebuild a kernel... or build a kernel a 3rd time... lol)
[15:39] <bobbytek> so do manufacturers supply linux drivers?
[15:40] <Guest65226> could somebody help me with video on skype? I have ubuntu 9.10 and webcam on skype is goin green. I tryed to google it but with no help at all.
[15:40] <addajones> protojay: thanks, i'll give it a gao
[15:40] <askreet> bobbytek, All the drivers included with Ubuntu are 'free' and open source.  Manufacturers sometimes provide better drivers, but they don't come with Ubuntu.
[15:40] <yorick> jcc1: yes, but they all say something else
[15:40] <Pelo> bobbytek, some do some don'T some drivers were retro engineered
[15:40] <bobbytek> i see
[15:40] <yorick> http://pastebin.com/d6b80610
[15:40] <Polydwarf> askreet, or build the kernel for the 57th time while you're trying to find out just which driver you need for <xyz piece of hardware>... not that I did that or anything.. ;)
[15:40] <bobbytek> so if I have an nvidia board, chances are these are open source?
[15:40] <askreet> bobbytek, A good example is nVidia, you can download linux drivers from them, but they won't come with Ubuntu.
[15:41] <bobbytek> ah
[15:41] <bobbytek> where could I do that?
[15:41] <Guest92760> hey... I have installed a software (rubymine) on ubuntu . how can I run it ? anybody can help?
[15:41] <askreet> Polydwarf, I hear ya, I rebuilt Gentoo a few dozen times.  Learned a lot but I prefer the simplicity of Ubuntu.  It's good to "get" how it works though.
[15:41] <t0rc> jcc1, thanks
[15:41] <Norse_Nemo> bobytek: System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers
[15:41] <askreet> bobbytek, For nVidia?  Ubuntu has a "Hardware Drivers tool that's really nice.  Norse_Nemo just beat me to it.
[15:41] <bobbytek> nice, thanks!
[15:41] <Pelo> bobbytek, chances are your mobo will work with the ubuntu drivers, the nvidia driver thing is mostly for video cards, and you can get them fro the restricted driver manager in the system > admin menu
[15:42] <medelin7> What are you tallking about?
[15:42] <oCean_> medelin7: this is ubuntu technical support channel, not chat
[15:42] <Pelo> medelin7, who are you taling to ?
[15:42] <dev305> Hi
[15:42] <askreet> dev305, Hi.
[15:42] <askreet> Hey it's a Linux Admin.  :)
[15:42] <dev305> can u help me
[15:42]  * askreet is also a linux admin.
[15:43] <Polydwarf> askreet, yup... I decided I didn't like waiting 12 hours to install a new box while everything built and was brought up to snuff.  Plus, there were more than a few times I got into unrecoverable situations with doing upgrades (packages failng to build, ebuild dependencies out of whack, etc).  My main use for ubuntu now is mythtv, and ubuntu has that nailed down cold.  I don't want to spend a lot of time fiddling, tbh.
[15:43] <Norse_Nemo> dev305: mabey
[15:43] <bobbytek> I have a matrox pararelia video card.. wondering if it supports it
[15:43] <askreet> Polydwarf, fiddling was fun when I was 16 and had the hours to burn, I guess... haha.
[15:43] <jcc1> yorick: Have you seen bmcage's post here? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=477287
[15:43] <Pelo> dev305, just state your problem in one line, and if someone can help they will try
[15:43] <bobbytek> it has dual dvi. does ubuntu support multiple monitors?
[15:43] <dev305> i installed ubuntu 9.10 in ubuntu 9.04
[15:43] <askreet> bobbytek, Oh yeah it does.. :D
[15:43] <dev305> how can remove ubuntu 9.10
[15:43] <Norse_Nemo> bobbytek: yes linux supports multiple monitors
[15:44] <bobbytek> nice :)
[15:44] <askreet> bobbytek, The nvidia drivers are *great*, it comes with a nvidia-settings app that lets you do all that stuff easily.
[15:44] <medelin7> Could someone tell me if there is skype for mac?
[15:44] <Pelo> dev305, you mean you upgraded the distribution ? you can'T downgrade you need to make a clean install
[15:44] <holy> Hello. Do I need to install something if I want to use Internet via my mobile cell phone using bluetooth dialup networking?
[15:44] <yorick> jcc1: ah thank you :)
[15:44] <askreet> medelin7, Yes there is.  But this is for Ubuntu support.
[15:44] <Norse_Nemo> dev305: you need to be more specific, are you trying to roll back or just get rid of it
[15:44] <jcc1> yorick:  I used this as a search term in Google, tons of hits "WALTOP International Corp. Slim Tablet + linux + install problems"
[15:44] <Pelo> dev305, why do you want to go back to 9.04 ? maybe we can help you fix that problem
[15:45] <dev305> actually its not support form my monitor
[15:45] <jcc1> no problem, google is good if you put together a good search term
[15:45] <dev305> 9.10 graphic mode is not supported
[15:45] <Pelo> dev305, could it just be that you need the correct driver for your video card ?
[15:45] <askreet> dev305, It's probably just not configured correctly.  9.10 has only added more support.
[15:45] <Norse_Nemo> dev305: what monitor are you using?
[15:46] <gocsp> hello
[15:46] <JosefAssad> Erm. Which package do I want to pull down if I want to waste a bit of time with all the odd compiz effects?

[15:48] <askreet> gocsp, Are you sure the resolution is the same?
[15:48] <eb__> !list
[15:48] <jcc1> ricerocket: maybe I missed something, but it sounds like your system is opening the folder on startup, usually this is a system profile issue. When I want something to start or not start on startup, this is where I set it.
[15:48] <eb__> !lost
[15:49] <eb__> !list
[15:49] <gocsp> askreet: if i connect the tv with vga all is okay (13.. x 768)

[15:49] <medelin7> I tryed a lots of times
[15:49] <jcc1> ricerocket: sorry, that was just a suggestion, I guess I haven't run into your particular prob...
[15:49] <Norse_Nemo> medelin7: do you have wine installed?
[15:50] <yorick> jcc1: so, after changing my xorg conf I should restart my X server?

[15:51] <oCean_> medelin7: are you using Ubuntu Linux? A moment ago you asked about Mac
[15:51] <jcc1> yorick: yes, I would just reboot to see if it "took"
[15:51] <Pelo> babu not sure but I think mplayer and vlc can play .rm , you might want to give them a try
[15:52] <yorick> jcc1: hmm...what do I do if it doesn't like my changes to xorg.conf?
[15:52] <jcc1> ricerocket: NP, I didn't take it that way, I know that sometimes IRC can be frustrating when you're trying to solve a prob and others don't know how "new" you are to the system...

[16:13] <thrillERboy> Hi what should I do in fstab to get NTFS partitions automounted
[16:13] <CkhiKuzad> Armok, give me a minute, i can find a site that has open source alternatives to windows programs
[16:13] <ikonia> thrillERboy: use an existing entry as an example, change the disk device to the right device and change the file system option to ntfs-3g
[16:14] <blakkheim> zebrafusion: it comes with the gnome-media package on arch, but i guess ubuntu took it out or something maybe
[16:14] <CkhiKuzad> got it, Armok: http://www.osalt.com/
[16:14] <thrillERboy> How can I get the UUID?
[16:14] <ikonia> thrillERboy: blkid
[16:14] <Armok> anyways, second question: shuld I have Kubuntu, edibuntu, or xubuntu? does it even matter all that much? I'll be using it for surfing the net, multimedia stuff, and pherhaps some sciency or programing stuff
[16:15] <ikonia> Armok: try them - see what you like
[16:15] <CkhiKuzad> Armok, try GNOME and KDE first
[16:15] <blakkheim> Armok: i would personally go with the ubuntu minimal iso and only install what i need
[16:15] <CkhiKuzad> GNOME is Ubuntu, KDE is Kubuntu armok
[16:15] <subito> hi, how can i downgrade to a stable release of kde? i wanted to try a beta so i've added the kubuntu ppa in my sources.list, but now that i've removed it, i still have kde 4.4 beta
[16:16] <ikonia> subito: you need to remove kde, remove the ppa from your sources.list and then install kde
[16:16] <subito> ikonia: so i reinstall kubuntu-desktop?
[16:16] <ikonia> subito: that would work
[16:16] <om26er> install kde/karmic ?
[16:16] <Armok> and some programs dont have open source alternatives, like games and propetary multimedia stuff
[16:16] <subito> ikonia: would i lose my preferences?
[16:16] <ikonia> subito: not the ones saved in your home directory
[16:16] <blakkheim> Armok: then don't use those :P
[16:17] <MariosFFX> hello
[16:17] <MariosFFX> I'd like some help since i'm new to ubuntu
[16:17] <Armok> alas, I have to. Spesificaly: you need wondows to make assembly programs for windows machines, and for runing Autodesk Maya
[16:17] <subito> ikonia: how can i know where are my preferences saved?
[16:18] <Armok> *windows
[16:18] <ikonia> subito: if it's a personal preference setting it will be in your home directory
[16:18] <ManDay> What package do I lack, so every time I return Ubuntu from humbernation the system asks me to unlock the default keyring for nm-applet (network manager) - WHY does it not remember the permission? What package do I need so I can check "Remember authorization" in the popup that comes up??
[16:18] <drizzt__> once again, how can I mount a Windows share in Gnome?
[16:18] <subito> ikonia: ok thanks
[16:18] <ManDay> drizzt__, get the ntfs drivers
[16:18] <MariosFFX> can someone help me or give me some links which explain more stuff about the partitions?  I'm just tired. Blu-Ray looks very bad in the near future of Linux and I do not spend $ 200 for having to uninstall it because Linux is not able to digest it. Registered Linux user # 358,506 --- Registered Ubuntu user # 6814 IS OUT! At least for a while.
[16:20] <ikonia> ManDay: please drop it, he's been told not to do it again
[16:20] <Armok> anyways: what are the diference betwen Kubuntu, edibuntu, or xubuntu exactly anywyas? I couldnt find the link due to blind idiocy
[16:20] <MORPHEUS> si puo istallare windows xp? lassciare pure linux
[16:20] <blakkheim> Galban: cool story bro
[16:20] <Galban> bye
[16:20] <drizzt__> samba is for sharing folders yourself, I need to connect existing one
[16:20] <ikonia> Galban: this is a support channel only
[16:20] <askreet_away> Armok, The default user experience.  KDE, Education Software, XFCE, respectively.
[16:20] <trism> vlt: it appears that many VNC implementations have an 8 character limit on passwords, which is why you only need the first 8 to log in (tested it with gnome remote desktop and it is the same)
[16:20] <drizzt__> !it
[16:20] <ikonia> Galban: please don't paste that sort of thing
[16:20] <MariosFFX> i have 3 drivers, the private is a A-Data 80GB Intel SSD, the other is 1TB and the third one is a 250GB drive
[16:21] <MariosFFX> I want to have all my music, videos etc by default stored to the 1TB
[16:21] <askreet_away> drizzt__, You're using 9.10 right?  Still not getting this to work?? :(
[16:21] <drizzt__> yeap :(
[16:21] <ikonia> MariosFFX: you can store data where ever you like
[16:21] <askreet_away> drizzt__, Did you re-log after installing smbclient?
[16:21] <mkanyicy> MariosFFX, / is called the root directory, everything in ubuntu stays under it, /home is where the users that can log in to the computer are placed. /home can be part of same filesystem as / or it can be a separate partition that is mounted accordingly.
[16:21] <MariosFFX> can I change the default location for the folders?
[16:22] <mezquitale> MariosFFX, the question is, which drive will have ubuntu?  You can configure ubuntu to use all drives
[16:22] <ikonia> MariosFFX: some can be changed others can't, google "FHS" and that will explain the file system standards to you
[16:22] <MariosFFX> the intel one of course since will be fast
[16:22] <holy> ikonia hello
[16:22] <ikonia> holy: hello
[16:22] <blakkheim> MariosFFX: i've got an ssd and it's great with linux
[16:22] <unop> drizzt__,  Places > Network  -- or in Nautilus, File > Connect to Server
[16:23] <gia65> ciao
[16:23] <MariosFFX> also about /home will this contain every file that every user has?
[16:23] <askreet_away> unop, We've gone there already -- and he just tried relogging.  He doesn't see 'Windows Share' in that list.
[16:23] <mkanyicy> blakkheim, how fast is the SSD compared to the HDD on average ?
[16:23] <scunizi> MariosFFX: the 1TB is a seperate drive? not what your system is installed on?  that shouldn't be an issue.. whatever you use to play music can be told to look on that drive for the music
[16:23] <MariosFFX> yes it's a separate drive
[16:23] <tomppa> Is there something funny going on with the oss ati drivers in 9.10? I think they performed a bit better on some older releases
[16:23] <holy> Why 'sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart/ doesn't create the 'dev/rfcomm0' device after I have edited '/etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf' ??
[16:23] <mezquitale> MariosFFX, basically you wont listen to advice and ask random questions, just go here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=282018
[16:23] <ikonia> holy: udev should create that for you,
[16:24] <blakkheim> mkanyicy: way faster. i use full disk encryption so there is a bit of an overhead, but the speed is still the biggest improvement in any single component upgrade i've ever seen
[16:24] <duartman> someone can help-me i can have sound on my pc http://pastebin.ca/1745630
[16:24] <holy> ikonia thanks
[16:24] <holy> ikonia have to reboot from Windows into Linux ...
[16:24] <Darkfault> They don't like me on ubuntu-pl
[16:24] <Darkfault> :/
[16:24] <askreet_away> duartman, Everything looks good.  What's the problem?
[16:25] <askreet_away> drizzt__, Any luck?
[16:25] <ikonia> Darkfault: we don't need to discuss that here
[16:25] <MariosFFX> in Windows 7 I could configure every  user folder to have a different location, for example you can change C:\Users\Marios\Pictures to D:\Marios\Pictures can the same be done here?
[16:25] <drizzt__> askreet_away, no, it's still no gnome integration
[16:25] <mezquitale> duartman, do you have another sound card in your machine?
[16:25] <ikonia> MariosFFX: you can store data where ever you want
[16:25] <tomppa> some basic opengl operations take 5-10 times longer than with the Vista ATI drivers, I don't think it was that bad with 7.04
[16:26] <askreet_away> MariosFFX, It sounds like you're trying to have the same data in two locations.  You should try a symbolic link.
[16:26] <askreet_away> !symlink
[16:26] <MariosFFX> yes you can store it but the question is can I change every shortcuts location?
[16:26] <blakkheim> tomppa: ati isn't exactly the most linux-friendly
[16:26] <mezquitale> askreet_away, Loaded ALSA modules " "
[16:26] <ikonia> MariosFFX: shortcut ??
[16:26] <mkanyicy> blakkheim, wow,
[16:27] <tomppa> blakkheim, I know. I just don't think it was that bad before. Any idea where I should try to tweak things?
[16:27] <askreet_away> mezquitale, Oh.
[16:27] <askreet_away> How did I miss that?
[16:27] <blakkheim> tomppa: if you're using the proprietary driver there's not much you can "tweak" :/
[16:27] <drizzt__> ikonia, he means 'standard' folder with pictures in $HOME
[16:27] <MariosFFX> when you browse through the files the left side of the window has folders or shortcuts for quick acess
[16:27] <mezquitale> ikonia, he's going to go on randomly, MariosFFX is just trolling, he needs to realize that you need to learn step by step before you can run, he doesnt even have ubuntu installed on his machine
[16:27] <askreet_away> drizzt__, I wish I hadn't installed netbook edition so I could be comparing 1:1 with you.  You started from i386 desktop edition media?
[16:27] <MariosFFX> i'm a troll already,,?
[16:27] <ManDay> What package do I lack, so every time I return Ubuntu from humbernation the system asks me to unlock the default keyring for nm-applet (network manager) - WHY does it not remember the permission? What package do I need so I can check "Remember authorization" in the popup that comes up??
[16:28] <ikonia> MariosFFX: you can customise almost anything, some things are more complex than others
[16:28] <sravan>  Hi, I have tried installing adobe flash player in debian from the adobe site and on installing it "dpkg -i install_flash_player_10.deb"
[16:28] <scunizi> MariosFFX: you're still suffering from a windows view.. lets say you have a "music" folder/directory on your 1TB drive.. you can make a "soft link" to that in you /home folder and delete the folder/directory that has the same name in /home.. done.. looks transparent
[16:28] <sravan>  My dpkg got screwed and no other package is getting installed
[16:28] <tomppa> blakkheim, I'm using the oss driver, it was ~on par with XP drivers with ati x550/Ubuntu 7.04. At least for simpler things
[16:28] <MariosFFX> aha
[16:28] <blakkheim> sravan: this is an ubuntu channel, try #debian for debian support
[16:28] <drizzt__> askreet_away, yes
[16:28] <ikonia> sravan: this is ubuntu support - not debian
[16:28] <ikonia> sravan: try #debian
[16:28] <sravan>  Hi, I have tried installing adobe flash player in ubuntu from the adobe site and on installing it "dpkg -i install_flash_player_10.deb",....
[16:28] <askreet_away> drizzt__, One sec.
[16:28] <drizzt__> MariosFFX, those folders are hardcoded
[16:28] <sravan> sry in ubuntu 9.10 not debian
[16:28] <duartman> mezquitale i have a on board but its desctiveted on bios
[16:28] <MariosFFX> of course I suffer from Windows... first time on ubuntu... lots of new things to learn
[16:28] <ikonia> sravan: no - you said debian
[16:29] <blakkheim> sravan: lol not sure if i believe that
[16:29] <mezquitale> duartman,  askreet_away, Loaded ALSA modules " "
[16:29] <sravan> At first , i contacted debian and they frwarded me to this channel
[16:29] <tomppa> I think my laptop with ati x1200/9.10 is ~5x slower than my desktop x550/7.04, but I'll have to verify that
[16:29] <Armok> ok, after mendering around wikipedia a bit, I draw the conclusion Kubuntu is flashier grapicaly, Xubuntu is faster and more lightweight, and Edubuntu come with some more softwere preinstaled. is this corect, or is there more to it?
[16:29] <scunizi> MariosFFX: the learning curve is steep but worth it..
[16:29] <qbmaniac> hey guys, does anyone have an example of how to use unzip with -d parameter from terminal?
[16:29] <ikonia> sravan: show me the output of uname -a please
[16:29] <mezquitale> duartman, you have no alsa modules installed on your machine, for some reason, you need to install them
[16:29] <askreet> drizzt__, removed smbclient and still have Windows Share option.
[16:29] <askreet> drizzt__, So it's definately something else.

[16:29] <duartman> mezquitale, i will try to intall this
[16:29] <blakkheim> Armok: that's pretty much true, but xubuntu isn't really that lightweight (although moreso than the other buntus)
[16:30] <ikonia> sravan: ok - so what's the problem

[16:32] <Armok> I havn't really tried any, I'm trying to figure out the advantages and disadvantages of each
[16:32] <ikonia> sravan: probably because it wasn't installed
[16:32] <blakkheim> Armok: is it ok if i pm you?
[16:32] <MariosFFX> anyway one final question are the partitions affect the perfomance of ubuntu?
[16:32] <ikonia> MariosFFX: no
[16:32] <sravan> but I have installed it ands able to see videos even on youtube
[16:32] <Armok> I have a good computer thou, and I dont care much abaut looks, so it sounds like I wouldnt seem much difference? and yea, PM me
[16:32] <Aruna> Any one ? how can i find teh name of my Wifi driver ?
[16:33] <scunizi> MariosFFX: not really..
[16:33] <sravan> ikonia, : but even if I want my dpkg to come back to it's intital wrking state , what must i do ?
[16:33] <drizzt__> sravan, open /var/lib/dpkg/status and remove the flash player section manually
[16:33] <ikonia> sravan: as you can see there are 3 packages not fully installed,
[16:33] <jcc1> Aruna: lsmod ?
[16:33] <Pelo> sravan, is it trying to installl flash or gecko ? because it needs gecko to access the internet, not the same as flash
[16:33] <Aruna> i need to install wifi driver in my system how to find it /
[16:33] <jofe> Aruna: lspci
[16:33] <duartman> mezquitale,  http://pastebin.com/m705c57d9
[16:33] <jcc1> Aruna: "sudo lsmod" from a terminal?
[16:34] <Pelo> !wifi > Aruna
[16:34] <scunizi> MariosFFX: when installing it's sometimes worth the effor to create 3 partitions.. one for swap.. one for root "/" and one for /home
[16:34] <Aruna> yes
[16:34] <Aruna> from tterminal
[16:34] <MariosFFX> on the same drive?
[16:34] <ikonia> MariosFFX: read up on "FHS"
[16:34] <askreet> drizzt__, Do you have gvfs-backends installed?
[16:34] <MariosFFX> ok
[16:34] <bobbytek> where is xorg.conf located ?
[16:34] <bobbytek> find didn't find it
[16:34] <Pelo> Aruna, you are using a terminal application to chat here ?
[16:34] <ikonia> bobbytek: /etc/X11
[16:34] <bobbytek> it's not there :(
[16:34] <ikonia> bobbytek: its not needed any more unless you want to hardcode one
[16:34] <jcc1> Aruna: try dmesg from a terminal to see if the kernel recognizes the name - you'll have to scan through the boot information to see if you recognize it.
[16:34] <ikonia> bobbytek: xorg is dynamic now
[16:34] <bobbytek> so it should just detect it?
[16:34] <bobbytek> oh nice
[16:35] <ikonia> bobbytek: yes
[16:35] <MariosFFX> what's the benefits of home?
[16:35] <bobbytek> so I installed the drivers
[16:35] <bobbytek> it should work on reboot?
[16:35] <ikonia> MariosFFX: read up on FHS
[16:35] <askreet> drizzt__, Actually, brb.
[16:35] <scunizi> bobbytek: same standard location.. however it's not used .. you can write a custom one and it will be used .. however xrandr is what controls the video now
[16:35] <sravan> ikonia, : yeah , it says only half configured
[16:35] <sravan> Can I remove those lines completely ?
[16:35] <mezquitale> duartman, in that case I believe it's an issue of configuration, this threat will show you the steps you need to configure your sound card: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[16:35] <ikonia> sravan: so the problem is, it's trying to finish the install
[16:35] <scunizi> MariosFFX: /home is where your data lives..
[16:35] <Misha> Hi folks. My old fileserver is running Hardy, now I'd like to move over to Karmic. What happens if I do a fresh install from the CD, without formatting my old drives and partitions?

[16:35] <macman_> does anyone use alpine / text email ?
[16:35] <ikonia> sravan: I would personally remove/purge that package

[16:36] <MariosFFX> and link with fhs
[16:36] <askreet> drizzt__, Okay, do you have gvfs-backends installed?  :P
[16:36] <MariosFFX> >?
[16:36] <scunizi> MariosFFX: fhs?
[16:36] <ikonia> sravan: because it didn't finish the install

[16:38] <ManDay> What package do I lack, so every time I return Ubuntu from humbernation the system asks me to unlock the default keyring for nm-applet (network manager) - WHY does it not remember the permission? What package do I need so I can check "Remember authorization" in the popup that comes up??
[16:38] <mezquitale> duartman, here's a crazy suggestion though, try getting rid of your NVIDIA drivers and see if you get sound
[16:38] <ikonia> sravan: possibly that external repo is down at the moment
[16:39] <ikonia> ManDay: I believe that may be a bug
[16:39] <Ben_90> hello :)
[16:39] <ikonia> hello
[16:39] <ManDay> ikonia, might be but as it doesnt even offer a checkbox for remembering the auth i think it might also be a missing package
[16:39] <sravan> ikonia, : even When I am trying to remove that package, y is it trying to connect to that ???
[16:40] <ikonia> sravan: for the last time - because it's not been installed correctly, so it's trying to fix it
[16:40] <MariosFFX> Can I also emulate MAC on Linux?
[16:40] <holy> ikonia How can 'udevd' create '/dev/rfcomm0' for me?
[16:40] <ikonia> sravan: it's a like a pending task, everytime you are trying to do something with apt it's trying to finish the task
[16:40] <ikonia> MariosFFX: as in PPC ?
[16:40] <duartman> mezquitale,  ok
[16:40] <jrib> MariosFFX: yes, there's a project but I don't recall the name
[16:40] <Aled> Nevermind
[16:40] <mezquitale> duartman, maybe this **might** help but I'm seeing your sound card is not configured, maybe this will help you enable it: http://www.shareconnector.com/no-sound-issue-sb-audigy-in-ubuntu-904
[16:40] <MariosFFX> well i dont even know what's ppc
[16:40] <Ben_90> i need help figuring out how to get my video card to use hardware drivers
[16:40] <MORPHEUS> 'scusate si puo istallare windows xp oltre a questo?
[16:40] <Aquaraptor> jrib, PearPC, though it SUCKS
[16:41] <ikonia> holy: you need to look at the udev rules, it will only do it if the device is recognised and known
[16:41] <Aquaraptor> you can easily emulate old macs but new macs are very very hard to emulate
[16:41] <holy> Options say I should have been educated as a  programmer to be capable to do it...
[16:41] <jrib> Aquaraptor: different one I think
[16:41] <guntbert> !it | MORPHEUS
[16:41] <btiernay> darn, didn't seem to detect the driver
[16:41] <sravan> ikonia, : Sorry if I have troubled you , but now that I dont want that package , How can I remove it ? with even purge not wrking ????
[16:41] <Aquaraptor> jrib, well there's also sheepshaver and basiliskII, but those are for old (Pre-OSX) macs
[16:41] <Aled> is i636 64 bit?
[16:41] <ikonia> sravan: well, as you installed it using dpkg, try removing it using dpkg
[16:41] <ikonia> Aled: no
[16:41] <MariosFFX> also I can emulate windows xp easily eh?
[16:41] <Ben_90> my video card is an ATI Radeon 9600 pro Sapphire 256mb
[16:41] <holy> ikonia the device is recognised by 'hcitool scan' and known as 'Motorola C390'
[16:42] <ikonia> MariosFFX: you can't "emmualte it" you can run it in a virtual machine
[16:42] <MariosFFX> y
[16:42] <Aquaraptor> MariosFFX, yeah x86 systems are easy to virtualize provided you have a new enough system & enough RAM
[16:42] <MariosFFX> that's what I actually mena
[16:42] <ikonia> holy: that doesn't mean it's supported by linux as a device
[16:42] <MariosFFX> mean *
[16:42] <MariosFFX> well I have 6gigs
[16:42] <fokuslee> HI, i just try to hold grub to ver 1 with aptitude hold grub, but then i didn't read carefully and i removed libpolkit is that a problem?
[16:42] <MORPHEUS> se da laltro ieri era in italiano
[16:42] <btiernay> how do I know if a display driver has been properly installed?
[16:42] <gartral|p> what's the name of the default network manager in 9.04?
[16:42] <Aled> how do I check if my Processor is 64 bit or not?
[16:42] <Aquaraptor> then you probably have a processor with VT - in which case you can easily use virtualbox
[16:42] <iceroot> gartral|p: network-manager
[16:42] <MariosFFX> thanks for everything byes
[16:42] <scunizi> MariosFFX: Virtualbox.org is your answer.. It will allow you to install whatever you want in a vm
[16:42] <ikonia> Aled: boot a 64bit live cd is a quick test
[16:43] <Aquaraptor> Aled, it'll show up in your bios
[16:43] <zhane> anyone with rapidshare account can help me dl a 30kb file?
[16:43] <Aled> thanks guys
[16:43] <Aled> brb
[16:43] <ikonia> zhane: please don't ask for that sort of thing
[16:43] <xopah> nastas : back again
[16:43] <iceroot> zhane: this is ubuntu-support
[16:43] <zhane> bleh
[16:43] <zhane> >.<
[16:43] <fokuslee> zhane, just reboot ur router to ger a new ip for rapidshare
[16:43] <fokuslee> unless you have a static
[16:43] <Polydwarf> speaking of virtualbox, is there a compare/contrast between that and vmware?  (usability/etc, not opensoure vs nonopensource)
[16:43] <Ben_90> btiernay: that question you asked is the same as the question i asked.
[16:44] <Polydwarf> I see tons of them, but nothing "definitive"
[16:44] <zhane> fokuslee: cant.. mine is static
[16:44] <ikonia> Polydwarf: I'm sure there will be on the web
[16:44] <ikonia> Polydwarf: it's not definitive because it's individual taste
[16:44] <gartral|p> iceroot, somehow it got deleted.. ok, can you help me find a guide for setting up a droid as a 3g modem? aorn it's my ONLY internet, and i know it has modem capabilities
[16:44] <Polydwarf> yeah, there are, but most seem to devolve into opensource vs nonopensource, without addressing performance, memory footprint, etc.
[16:44] <sliddy> is there a everything to mpeg converter for linux?
[16:44] <holy> ikonia The problem is, I used it as modem in 8.04 with "wvdial" and I can not create '/dev/rfcomm0' for 'pppconfig' ...
[16:44] <scunizi> Polydwarf: having used both.. I've found Vbox much easier for the desktop.. vmware is heavier ..a little more complicated etc.
[16:44] <ikonia> Polydwarf: because it varies a lot on hardware and other things
[16:44] <btiernay> heh
[16:45] <ikonia> holy: that suggests it should be supported as a linux device then,
[16:45] <hungvt> Hello all
[16:45] <ikonia> holy: look at your udev rules to see if you have anything that references that device in there
[16:45] <badsanta> when will transmission 1.8 be in the repos ?
[16:45] <Ben_90> does anyone know where i can get drivers for my video card?
[16:45] <scunizi> Polydwarf: the version fo vbox from their site is non-free because of the usb support..
[16:46] <scunizi> Ben_90: depends on the card..
[16:46] <ikonia> Ben_90: what video card is it
[16:46] <guntbert> Polydwarf: this channel is for ubuntu support  - please take discussion requests elsewhere ( #ubuntu-offtopic )
[16:46] <Polydwarf> lol.. usb support is what I'm primarily interested in (looking at running a magicjack off my mythtv box in the living room)
[16:46] <ikonia> !pm Darkfault
[16:46] <Caldeum> hi guys - i have a small problem. i have an laptop with 2 graphic cards - HD 3200 internal and HD 3870 external. and the ATI-proprietary legacy driver. now the point: how can i change the graphic card in the xorg.conf? only changing the BusID of the graphic card does not help -.-
[16:46] <ikonia> !pm > Darkfault
[16:46] <Ben_90> scunizi , ikonia : it is an ati radeon sapphire 9600 pro 256mb
[16:46] <scunizi> Polydwarf: magicjack is sip.. if you know the login credentials you can use ekiga, twinkle and several others to do the same
[16:47] <drizzt__> ok, now my server rejects my password, what's wrong
[16:47] <holy> MORPHEUS hello, how's tau?
[16:47] <gartral|p> ice root, im also searching in browser
[16:47] <holy> ikonia OK.
[16:47] <scunizi> Ben_90: I have one of those.. ATI is not currently supporting it on Xorg 7.3+.. buy a cheap nvidia..
[16:47] <Yrt> I need a good ftp/fxp program for ubuntu, any suggestions?
[16:47] <holy> MORPHEUS I have to reboot to Linux.
[16:47] <fumbles> hrm this is wierd-I'm having trouble connecting a friend's laptop(64bit) to my printer that's shared through an ubuntu server
[16:47] <Ben_90> scunizi : damn :(
[16:47] <fumbles> I get a fun 0x0000000d error
[16:48] <fumbles> he's using windows though :x
[16:48] <Caldeum> hmm nobody knows how to edit the xorg.conf to change the graphic adapter? :(
[16:48] <scunizi> Ben_90: the nvidia 6000 series works very well and are probably dirt cheap
[16:48] <ikonia> Caldeum: yes, change the line that says "driver"
[16:48] <ikonia> Caldeum: or, add the line
[16:48] <drizzt__> fumbles, ERROR_INVALID_DATA :)
[16:49] <Ben_90> scunizi : i paid $33.90 for it when it was used.
[16:49] <Caldeum> ikonia yes i does it ... but changing what?
[16:49] <Caldeum> only the BusID does not help
[16:49] <ikonia> Caldeum: to what ever driver you want to use
[16:49] <btiernay> i can't create xorg.conf in /etc/X11
[16:49] <blakkheim> !usb > Armok
[16:49] <fokuslee> Hi there is a wiki on holding software version, but i forgot what its called anyone?
[16:49] <btiernay> is there a standard way?
[16:49] <ikonia> btiernay: you'll need to use sudo
[16:49] <drizzt__> I'm trying to connect to Windows share, but it rejects my (correct) password!
[16:49] <Caldeum> ikonia the internal HD 3200 runs with the ATI legacy driver ....
[16:49] <fumbles> drizzt__: ? I can print using my laptop but not my friend's
[16:49] <Caldeum> want to change only to the external HD 3870
[16:49] <ikonia> Caldeum: ok, what do you mean "HD" ?
[16:50] <Caldeum> its the name of the card ^^
[16:50] <fumbles> looks like hardrive
[16:50] <Caldeum> Radeon HD xxxx
[16:50] <ikonia> Caldeum: ahh, ok
[16:50] <drizzt__> fumbles, that's what 0xd error means
[16:50] <fumbles> ah
[16:50] <fumbles> oh also for null value in the registry
[16:50] <ikonia> Caldeum: so you should have two entries one for each card, change the driver line for the card you want to change
[16:50] <fumbles> which might have something to do with the driver that's stored on the server
[16:51] <Caldeum> ikonia yes but changing what? only the BusID or also the device identifier?
[16:51] <fumbles> i686 server-and driver....64bit laptop :x
[16:51] <ikonia> Caldeum: you don't change the bus id or anything like that - you change the line that says "driver $something"
[16:51] <drizzt__> fumbles, have you tried to install printer driver manuaaly?
[16:51] <fumbles> ah that's right. doing it now
[16:52] <btiernay> how can I null out a file with sudo? sudo >  doesn't work
[16:52] <soreau> ! work | btiernay
[16:52] <unop> btiernay,  echo '' | sudo tee file
[16:52] <Caldeum> ikonia http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/grafikkarte-in-der-xorg-conf-wechseln/ my topic ... in the xorg.conf is only the Radeon HD 3200 ... identified by the BusID of 1:5:0 from lspci
[16:52] <btiernay> aye
[16:52] <btiernay> thanks
[16:53] <cloud> any Chinese?
[16:53] <ikonia> Caldeum: you need to change xorg.conf - not lspci
[16:53] <btiernay> unop: thanks
[16:54] <Caldeum> ikonia yes yes ... i uses the lspci only to check that ubuntu knows about both Graphic cards and to know the BusID's
[16:54] <Caldeum> *used
[16:54] <ikonia> Caldeum: then you know what to do now
[16:54] <drizzt__> I'm trying to connect to Windows share, but it rejects my (correct) password, what can be wrong?
[16:54] <macman_> anyone use pine (email client)
[16:54] <ikonia> macman_: not for a while, but I do
[16:54] <Caldeum> thats the point: i doesnt know it -.- xorg.conf is an seven-sealed book for me :/
[16:54] <Ben_90> cya later
[16:55] <macman_> ikonia: do you use it for multiple accounts ?
[16:55] <jrib> drizzt__ username
[16:55] <ikonia> Caldeum: so edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf fine your card, and change the line that says "driver" for your card, or add the line
[16:55] <ikonia> macman_: no,
[16:55] <macman_> ikonia: only one ?
[16:55] <guntbert> !cn | cloud
[16:55] <Caldeum> ikonia yes but changing to what? only the BusID to 2:0:0 doesnt works
[16:55] <drizzt__> jrib, what? I'm using existing account name on that machine
[16:56] <jrib> drizzt__: you asked what else could be wrong, I suggested the username
[16:56] <og01> anybody know how to check/change the root mysql password in ubuntu http://www.ubuntugeek.com/reset-the-root-password-on-mysql.html <- this link tells how but it doesnt seem to work
[16:56] <ikonia> Caldeum: forget the bus ID - you don't change that !
[16:56] <soreau> Caldeum: What are you ultimately trying to accomplish?
[16:56] <jrib> !away > Telac|afk
[16:56] <unop> drizzt__, are you using a valid share name? is the share accessible for this user? share and NTFS permissions right?
[16:56] <Caldeum> ikonia but what than? i cant find any tutorials for multiple different grapic cards -.-
[16:57] <og01> mysql was installed with mythtv - but now i need it for something else also
[16:57] <Caldeum> only SLI/Crossfire/Dualscreen
[16:57] <drizzt__> unop, yes, it's accessile form another Win machine
[16:57] <ikonia> Caldeum: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf you'll have a device section for each card, change/add the line driver "$drivername" for the one card you want to change
[16:57] <tutysara> i recently changed from ALSA to OSS on ubuntu 9.10. my gui is not comming. any idea what could be the issue and how to fix it?
[16:58] <Caldeum> ikonia ill look for it ..... must reboot, brb later
[16:58] <btiernay> Is there anyway I can get a default xorg.conf file?
[16:58] <ikonia> btiernay: find one on the net
[16:58] <pwnedulongtime> hello people...I am using IRC
[16:58] <ikonia> btiernay: xorg -configure
[16:58] <soreau> btiernay: Xorg -configure
[16:58] <iceroot> btiernay: move the old one and start x-server
[16:59] <iceroot> btiernay: or configure
[16:59] <btiernay> thanks guys
[17:03] <Guest71608>  dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/mnt/sysimage.img bs=64K  --------- will this copy the partition table and the mbr too, so that i can simply DD it back to the source hd later, or is it not that simple!???
[17:04] <gartral|p> iceroot, any luck
[17:04] <Caldeum> ikonia okay back :) i have 2 entries in my xorg.conf for Devices ... but one is nearly empty: http://stfu.pastebin.com/m78c70b1d
[17:04] <gartral|p> ?
[17:04] <drizzt__> Guest71608, no, you must use /dev/sda
[17:04] <ikonia> Caldeum: that's fine, just add the driver line
[17:04] <Guest71608> drizzt__, ok, thats what i meant, but will that copy the whole hd + mbr+part table ?
[17:05] <drizzt__> yes
[17:05] <Guest71608> drizzt__, ok, the guides i have seen arent too clear, they tell me to copy the mbr seperatly. which i have done...
[17:05] <Caldeum> ikonia just adding what to which driver line? :D
[17:06] <drizzt__> drizzt__, sorry, I don't know exact MBR size
[17:06] <ikonia> Caldeum: I can't keep saying this, add the line  Driver "card_driver_name" to the device you want to change
[17:06] <Guest71608> drizzt__, its 512bytes
[17:06] <btiernay> hmm, Xorg -configure can't run due to display being in use
[17:07] <ikonia> btiernay: kill your xserver then
[17:07] <btiernay> how I do that?
[17:07] <btiernay> I noob
[17:08] <Caldeum> ikonia or can i rebuild the xorg.conf using aticonfig? the config knows about the second grapic card too ... but sets the internal to the default-card. may its enough to change the default-card to the external using aticonfig?
[17:08] <ikonia> Caldeum: I have no idea about aticonfig
[17:08] <Caldeum> -.
[17:08] <ikonia> btiernay: you could use Caldeum's post http://stfu.pastebin.com/m78c70b1d as a template
[17:08] <ikonia> btiernay: strip it all out
[17:09] <Armok> THanks for the help, bye! :)

[17:11] <drizzt__> I'm trying to connect to Windows share, but it rejects my (correct) password/username, what can be wrong?
[17:11] <ikonia> Moncai: it's information - so it's not a problem, I suspect you've got a device just being chatty
[17:11] <scorch__> ikonia: ok well I am having a problem with that....    I cant reactivate it nor kill it

[17:12] <ikonia> alberto: look on the web if you know your motherboards make/model
[17:12] <Moncai> It's spamming up to five times per second, taking up more than half of the total syslog, no cure?

[17:25] <syrius> stupid winblows
[17:25] <syrius> it won't access from the network and sharing
[17:25] <dev3051> in pc i installed ubuntu 9.10 and 9.04
[17:25] <syrius> but I can access if from the run command
[17:25] <Aquaraptor> drizzt__, can other clients connect to it?
[17:25] <dev3051> i want to remove one
[17:25] <drizzt__> Aquaraptor, of course they can
[17:25] <Armok> so, I know Xubuntu is faster then plain Ubuntu... but what are the DIS advantages?
[17:25] <dev3051> plz help me
[17:25] <Aquaraptor> ok then maybe you're not putting in the right info to ubuntu? is the workgroup just WORKGROUP?
[17:26] <eugene_bondarenk> hi, I've installed proftpd and gadmin-proftpd. in gadmin I've set the home directory to /home/ftp/incoming. Then I went to gadmin and added another directory I want to share: /media/Y. When I sign in to FTP, I get to my home directory (/home/ftp/incoming)...but how do I get to /media/Y now?
[17:26] <Armok> (asuming that since both are free, both have diferent strenghts and weaknesses)
[17:26] <ikonia> Armok: try them out, it's just personal preference
[17:26] <dev3051> hello
[17:26] <drizzt__> Armok, you need Gnome stuff to do anything productive
[17:26] <dev3051> any one help me
[17:26] <ikonia> dev3051: ask a question then
[17:26] <drizzt__> Aquaraptor, yes it is
[17:26] <mezquitale> !anyone | dev3051
[17:27] <Aquaraptor> hrmmm, can you connect from terminal (using the samba commands and all) ?
[17:27] <Armok> Wait, Xubuntu can't run ordinary programs ou mean?
[17:27] <dev3051> in my pc i was install ubuntu 9.10 &9.04
[17:27] <pershing> hgh
[17:27] <Myrtti> Armok: yes it can
[17:27] <brianherman> dev3051: in two partitions?
[17:27] <ikonia> Armok: for xubuntu to run gnome applications you have to install the gnome library sets
[17:27] <dev3051> i want to remove one

[17:27] <dev3051> i want to remove ubuntu 9.10
[17:27] <scorch__> gartial: that did it thanks
[17:27] <dev3051> ya
[17:27] <ikonia> Armok: you're still using the xubuntu desktop - but it's got the gnome / kde libraries installed
[17:28] <ikonia> dev3051: you need to install something over the top of it then
[17:28] <brianherman> dev3051: What do you want to keep?
[17:28] <dev3051> ubuntu 9.04
[17:28] <Armok> well, I'm probably beter of with plain ubuntu then, I dont really need the speed
[17:28] <drizzt__> Aquaraptor, which samba commands?
[17:28] <jacob3> Does anyone else see 300,000+ reallocated sector counts in Ubuntu 9.10? The HD passes hard disk tests though.

[17:42] <syrius> winff needs to be fixed who ever manages that package it needs to install libavcodec-unstripped-52 because I wasn't able to reduce bitrate of mp3 files without it

[17:45] <smiley_> drizzt__: try mounting from the command line
[17:46] <brianherman> Nfischer: .... You need to have the will to learn if you are going to use linux...
[17:46] <bastid_raZor> btiernay: you need to be in a TT
[17:46] <btiernay> how?
[17:46] <btiernay> can I boot to prompt?
[17:46] <brianherman> NFischer: Or else you are going to be in this channel forever
[17:46] <bastid_raZor> btiernay: yes, that would work also
[17:46] <NFischer> brianherman, omfg, you dont know it either huh?
[17:46] <btiernay> there is no option to do that though
[17:47] <ikonia> NFischer: please control your language, we know what omfg means and don't need to see it
[17:47] <btiernay> wasn't that removed?
[17:47] <NFischer> ikonia, right.
[17:47] <ikonia> NFischer: thanks
[17:48] <btiernay> how to boot to prompt
[17:48] <purpzey> Can someone help me out with a Samba share? I followed an Ubuntu official tutorial to set it up, but I can't seem to connect to it from my other computer?
[17:48] <bastid_raZor> btiernay: press ctrl alt F1 ..that will get you to TTY1 and you can stop gdm there and then install the driver. then restart gdm and ctrl alt F7 to get back to X

[17:50] <btiernay> that's for asi
[17:50] <btiernay> how could I use that as a template?
[17:50] <ikonia> btiernay: you change the template
[17:50] <ikonia> btiernay: change it
[17:50] <erUSUL> btiernay: sudo Xorg -configure

[17:51] <btiernay> it's a circle

[17:56] <ikonia> harushimo: what perl doc?
[17:56] <harushimo> perlcheat, perl retut
[17:56] <harushimo> it says there isn't man for it
[17:57] <ph33r> erUSUL: will that remove the entry from grub too? I don't want it to show the older kernels in rub
[17:57] <ikonia> harushimo: there may not be a manpage
[17:57] <erUSUL> ph33r: it should
[17:57] <ikonia> harushimo: they sound like functions
[17:57] <ph33r> erUSUL: it did, thank you a lot :)
[17:57] <harushimo> really
[17:57] <smiley_> drizzt__: Usually its the other way around! Very confisuing..
[17:57] <erUSUL> ph33r: choose the right versions... the {n..m} part
[17:57] <harushimo> sorry I mean the tutorials
[17:57] <ph33r> erUSUL: yeah done that, works nicely

[17:58] <diddy> If I set up a user based conjob with "crontab -e" will this job be executed if the machine is on but the user not logged it?
[17:58] <ikonia> diddy: yes
[17:58] <harushimo> I know that. I thought could view it through the command
[17:58] <harushimo> line
[17:58] <harushimo> thank you
[17:58] <smiley_> drizzt__: in nautilus, can you navigate to smb://ipaddress and see the share?
[17:58] <ikonia> harushimo: where did you get those commands ?
[17:59] <joe262> hey purpzey! ltns
[17:59] <diddy> ikonia, thx
[17:59] <NotTooSmart> how do I verify my swap is mounted, on boot it says waiting for dev/mapper/crystalswap1, it does boot... but just not sure what exactly this means....
[18:00] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: you don't mount swap, check it with swapon -s
[18:00] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, doesn't look to be working.
[18:00] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: explain
[18:00] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, that command returns blank
[18:00] <NotTooSmart> x@media:/hd2$ swapon -s
[18:00] <NotTooSmart> Filename                                Type            Size    Used    Priority
[18:01] <NFischer> brianherman, eventhough its not correctr
[18:01] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: it would never return blank
[18:01] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: ok - that's not blank
[18:01] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, it shows nothing though.
[18:01] <drizzt__> smiley_, it keeps asking for password, but won't accept it
[18:01] <ikonia> necreo: there is no swap partition available to you then, you need to swapon your swap disk
[18:01] <ikonia> sorry that was for NotTooSmart
[18:01] <the_real_dave> NotTooSmart: post the output of sudo fdisk -l?
[18:01] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, i have a swap partition, and it's listed in /etc/fstab
[18:02] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: it's not getting swaped on
[18:02] <Dracofodder> doesnt the "free-m" command give swap info too?
[18:02] <smiley_> drizzt__: im stumped..  on windows XP , set up another folder, share it.. and make sure your username is in the permissions list..  try to connect to that share with the username
[18:02] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: manually swap it on
[18:02] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, the_real_dave ok one sec
[18:02] <Dracofodder> "free -m" that is
[18:02] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, the_real_dave: http://pastebin.com/m243bde46
[18:02] <x_link> Hmm
[18:03] <x_link> Still Totem is the default movieplayer =/
[18:03] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: I didn't ask for your fstab, I asked you to manually swapon your swap disk
[18:03] <zacktu> I just installed 9.10 over 8.10 (also using 9.04 on another computer).  In the past I have been able to add users, modify the root password, etc.  As I recall, I unlocked my entry in the user table and had permission to do those things.  I can't.  Did I miss something during the installation?
[18:03] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, ok, how do I do that?
[18:03] <x_link> Ahh now I fixed it
[18:03] <x_link> Just had to remove totem
[18:03] <Snausages> x_link: I like the way totem handles for most files.  Can't figure out the right way to use it for DVDs though
[18:03] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: your fstab has swap commented it out
[18:03] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: remove the comment "#"
[18:03] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, how does that occur, i have not edited it recently?
[18:04] <t0rc> anyone have a good program to read the output tracked by "script" ?
[18:04] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: I don't know, I don't manage your system
[18:04] <ikonia> t0rc: tail -f script.file
[18:04] <LinuxAdmin> hi guys
[18:04] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, lol. thanks
[18:04] <LinuxAdmin> is there significant diferences between ubuntu and ubuntu server?
[18:04] <jebblue> NotTooSmart: try swapon -a then swapon -s
[18:04] <ouyes> the items in the desktop has a Stress in xfce, there is a white background of the items's name how to abolish it ?
[18:04] <the_real_dave> NotTooSmart: could have been an update or something :) take away the # and run swapon -a
[18:04] <ikonia> LinuxAdmin: something such as the kernel are different
[18:04] <drizzt__> smiley_, it's the same password loop for that new shared folder
[18:05] <NotTooSmart> the_real_dave,
[18:05] <NotTooSmart> swapon: cannot find the device for UUID=686f48a1-3618-44bf-afc8-2a385c5acbc2
[18:05] <LinuxAdmin> the kernel is diferent?
[18:05] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: have you repartitioned your disks recently ?
[18:05] <ikonia> LinuxAdmin: yes, tuned for enterprise hardware
[18:05] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, no
[18:05] <drizzt__> smiley_, but works from Windows.....
[18:05] <LinuxAdmin> ok
[18:05] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: pastebin the output of sudo blkid
[18:05] <the_real_dave> NotTooSmart: open Gparted and rightclick on your swap partition to find its UUID
[18:06] <the_real_dave> NotTooSmart: then just replace the fstab value with that.
[18:06] <NotTooSmart> the_real_dave, its a server install.
[18:06] <LinuxAdmin> I would like to know if there is diferent tools, diferent commands, etc
[18:06] <ikonia> LinuxAdmin: if you're learning - use the desktop version
[18:06] <ikonia> LinuxAdmin: the commands are the same in both
[18:06] <CyberViruz> hi guys, I am wondering if I am going to try to install ubuntu as a base server in my home network, handeling dhcp and all network requests, instead of my cheapshit netprovider dsl router that works like crap when handling heavy DHT loads from my torrenting. any thoughts on this?
[18:07] <ikonia> CyberViruz: control your language please
[18:07] <the_real_dave> NotTooSmart: ah ok, sudo sudo fdisk -l to find the device string eg /dev/sda1, and use that instead of UUID.
[18:07] <t0rc> ikonia, thanks I think. It seems to not be reading a lot of the generated script file however. Is there another way?
[18:07] <NotTooSmart> the_real_dave, ikonia fixed it using nano, thanks guys
[18:07] <Moncai> Anyone who knows his way around nut? I have an upsdrvctl that is spamming my syslog like crazy
[18:07] <angelo> hey
[18:07] <LinuxAdmin> I'm not learning, I'm a sysadmin that is moving from another distro and I think ubuntu desktop is very nice
[18:07] <angelo> whatsup?
[18:07] <CyberViruz> ikonia: sorry, I will censor my #¤%. :P :)
[18:07] <ikonia> t0rc: if that's not working - you have a different problem
[18:07] <blakkheim> LinuxAdmin: what distro?
[18:07] <fir> hello all
[18:07] <LinuxAdmin> slackware
[18:07] <fir> Ubuntu 9.10 installed you can remove the program and install firefox icecat lighter and faster?
[18:07] <ikonia> LinuxAdmin: you're not learning - but you don't know how to see if your swap is in use - I doubt that
[18:08] <smiley_> drizzt__: mmm im stumped..  manually, when you do -o username xxxxx .. xxxx = your username on the xp machine (i know, ridiculosu question, but no hard im checking)
[18:08] <NotTooSmart> ikonia,
[18:08] <NotTooSmart> Filename                                Type            Size    Used    Priority
[18:08] <NotTooSmart> /dev/mapper/cryptswap1                  partition       859436  0       -1
[18:08] <ikonia> LinuxAdmin: the commands beteween slackware and ubuntu are the same - so I suggest you are learning
[18:08] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: why are you showing me that ?
[18:08] <NotTooSmart> is it right?
[18:08] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: you're a sysadmin  you should know
[18:08] <NotTooSmart> no im not...
[18:08] <angelo> where can i work with the device drivers on ubuntu?
[18:08] <NotTooSmart> and i never said i was
[18:08] <MorphyNOR> !pastebin | NotTooSmart
[18:08] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: you just said you where
[18:08] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, no i did not
[18:08] <NotTooSmart> that was someone else
[18:08] <LinuxAdmin> who talked about swap? Am I missing something?
[18:08] <drizzt__> smiley_, yes, i'm providing correct username both in mount and smbclient
[18:09] <ikonia> 18:07 < LinuxAdmin> I'm not learning, I'm a sysadmin
[18:09] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, you are very rude
[18:09] <ikonia> LinuxAdmin: you're a sysadmin - you should be able to manage swap
[18:09] <fir> Ubuntu 9.10 installed you can remove the program and install firefox icecat lighter and faster?
[18:09] <blakkheim> LinuxAdmin: why are you considering switching?
[18:09] <ReBuLeRo> yo guys are suck a FREAK
[18:09] <AJH101-IRC> hi guys - every time i log in i am asked to authorize webring access - how do i do this permanently please?
[18:09] <CyberViruz> NotTooSmart: I agree, this ikonia person seems to me very rude.
[18:09] <LinuxAdmin> I didn't talk about swap
[18:09] <LinuxAdmin> anyway, thanks
[18:09] <ikonia> LinuxAdmin: apologies
[18:09] <NotTooSmart> LinuxAdmin, ikonia is simply a rude person
[18:09] <ikonia> LinuxAdmin: I got two nicks messed up - very very sorry
[18:10] <domjohnson> Hello - tried the Sound debugging thing on the wiki, but i've still no sound.
[18:10] <LinuxAdmin> ok
[18:10] <smiley_> drizzt__: im stumped then.. probably a good idea to troll the forums and see.. this seems very trivial..
[18:10] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: - no, I'd got you're two nick names mixed up, %101 my mistake, apologies
[18:10] <LinuxAdmin> apoligies accept
[18:10] <ikonia> LinuxAdmin: apologies to you also, %101 my mistake,
[18:10] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, ok then, no problem read my nick, i never claimed to be smart
[18:10] <drizzt__> ok :(
[18:10] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: I understand that, as I said I got your's and LinuxAdmin's nicks back to front half way through the conversation
[18:10] <NotTooSmart> alright np back on topic then
[18:10] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: that appears to be swaped on correclt
[18:10] <drizzt__> btw can I update the samba from Lucid or debian-upstream-whicever-it-called?
[18:10] <ikonia> correctly
[18:11] <CyberViruz> but guys, how #¤% complicated is it really to setup a ubuntu (or any linux distro for that mather) to act as a base server/network provider & dhcp server?
[18:11] <LinuxAdmin> I'm moving to ubuntu because I also have tried debian
[18:11] <ikonia> drizzt__: no, you can't
[18:11] <blakkheim> CyberViruz: not complicated at all
[18:11] <LinuxAdmin> the two system are very close
[18:11] <NotTooSmart> CyberViruz, easy
[18:11] <artunder56> Ciao
[18:11] <AJH101-IRC> hi guys - every time i log in i am asked to authorize webring access - how do i do this permanently please?
[18:11] <fir> Information: Ubuntu 9.10 installed you can remove the program and install firefox icecat lighter and faster?
[18:11] <LinuxAdmin> but ubuntu has got a great comunity and I think the support of Canonical is a good thing
[18:12] <erUSUL> Cybertinus: what server role? if you want only to act as router gateaway chhose a distro designed for that purpose like ipcop; zeroshell etc...
[18:12] <CyberViruz> ok, I used shift + numberkeys to 'censor' myself. sorry if that was wrong for me to do.
[18:12] <benedikt> has the module toshiba_acpi been deprecated or something?
[18:13] <ikonia> CyberViruz: if you can't say a word without staring it out - don't say it
[18:13] <isolat3dsh33p> domjohnson, if « aplay -l » give you something. Check if anything in « alasamixer » is muted or not. Especially the PCM and Master should not be muted.
[18:13] <messenjah> nazdar
[18:13] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, i asked you how that could happen to my /etc/fstab becuase i have not touched it in some time, sorry for the confusion :-D
[18:13] <messenjah> je tu nějaký čech
[18:13] <erUSUL> benedikt: no afaics /lib/modules/2.6.31-17-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/toshiba_acpi.ko
[18:13] <blakkheim> !cz | messenjah
[18:13] <CyberViruz> erUSUL: server role: take all heavy network request/loads that normally falls onto the weak dsl router, to prevent it from shutting down half the time.
[18:13] <messenjah> o.k.
[18:14] <ikonia> NotTooSmart: you may have made a typo and not noticed
[18:14] <ikonia> CyberViruz: your ubuntu box will handle that fine
[18:14] <pratik_narain> empathy is not showing gtalk contacts. please help
[18:14] <NotTooSmart> ikonia, yea, i may have not had swap for quite some time, since its a machine I use over ssh so I dont normally see it boot.
[18:14] <LinuxAdmin> I'm finding myself questioning why have I installed ubuntu in vmware environment without trouble and did the same with ubuntu server, but this time the graphcal system did not work at the first time
[18:14] <benedikt> erUSUL: i find no evidence of it being deprecated either. My problem is better described as bug #505328
[18:14] <fir> Information: Ubuntu 9.10 installed you can remove the program and install firefox icecat lighter and faster?
[18:14] <erUSUL> CyberViruz: then use something like the mentioned router oriented distros. will be easier to setup and have nice web guis to set up and monitor
[18:14] <CyberViruz> (network loads would ofcourse pass through the dsl router at the end, but its processor and ram wont be bothered to much with the DHT and so forth.
[18:14] <ikonia> fir: stop that please
[18:14] <benedikt> LinuxAdmin: ubuntu server comes without a gui
[18:15] <fir> ok ikonia
[18:15] <rgr_> the ubuntu system I installed at work upgraded recently and now the keyboard has reverted AGAIN to american. WTF? What is the correct and proper way to configure the german keyboard so it stays German?
[18:15] <Bcool> alright, my high definition videos are being a bit jerky. I am using 9.04, any way to fix this?
[18:15] <CyberViruz> ikonia: about the censoring, sure, I will kep that in mind.
[18:15] <ikonia> rgr_: please control your language, we know what wtf means and don't need to see it
[18:16] <rolo> I have installed doc-linux-html. how do I vew the html?
[18:16] <diddy> What would be a good case when to use the at and batch commands instead of cron/anacron?
[18:16] <ikonia> rolo: open it in a browser ?
[18:16] <isolat3dsh33p> Bcool, install the right driver?
[18:16] <Snausages> rgr: you're lucky, I can't get my keyboard to switch in the first place
[18:16] <ikonia> diddy: one of job
[18:16] <Pirate_Hunter> erUSUL, could you send me  a pm with a list of router orientated distro it might be what ive been looking for
[18:16] <ouyes> the items in the desktop has a Stress, how to abolish it ?
[18:16] <LinuxAdmin> I really like the command line, but there are some circunstances where a graphical interface is welcome, even in a server environment
[18:16] <JamesE> Hi all. Question on mp3 players. When I plug it into USB slot, Nautilus shows it as a place and I can see the files.  But in terminal or Gnome Commander I can't find the mp3 device. What is the file path?  Do I have to manually mount?
[18:16] <rolo> ikonia: where is it located?
[18:16] <ikonia> diddy: one off job, not a regular task
[18:16] <ikonia> rolo: normally /usr/share/docs I think
[18:16] <NotTooSmart> LinuxAdmin, i beg to differ ;-D
[18:16] <oCean_> diddy: i only use at commands for one time occurances only
[18:16] <blakkheim> LinuxAdmin: such as?
[18:17] <diddy> ikonia, yes I understand that but I was hoping to get an example.
[18:17] <erUSUL> Pirate_Hunter: i just mentioned the two ones i know from the tip of my head. distrowatch and google should have a lot of more info
[18:17] <ikonia> diddy: any one off job, use your imagination
[18:17] <CyberViruz> erUSUL:  me too? :P
[18:17] <baldaris> hey guys...i am trying to install photoshop cs3 and dreamweaver using wine..will it work..any tutorials out there on karmic kola?
[18:17] <baldaris> 9.10
[18:17] <domjohnson> isolat3dsh33p - nothing is muted in alsamixer. What should i look out for in aplay -l?
[18:17] <Bcool> isolat3dsh33p, what do you mean install the right driver?
[18:17] <grkblood13> how do i convert aac to mp3?
[18:17] <ikonia> baldaris: #wine-hq has some good people and docs
[18:17] <CyberViruz> erUSUL, ok, google it is :)=
[18:17] <LinuxAdmin> for example a server that hosts virtual machines
[18:17] <benedikt> LinuxAdmin: no. there isnt.
[18:17] <blakkheim> grkblood13: ffmpeg
[18:17] <zkx> someone should really fix the ubuntu.com webpage, the "top" written on the left is definetely misplaced :P
[18:18] <grkblood13> blakkheim, i tried that
[18:18] <grkblood13> can i pm you>
[18:18] <the_real_dave> LinuxAdmin: is disagree, most server's are set up and forgotten about, you shouldn't have to access it too much. So a GUI is a waste of resources
[18:18] <grkblood13> ?*
[18:18] <blakkheim> grkblood13: sure
[18:18] <pratik_narain> empathy is not showing gtalk contacts. please help
[18:18] <diddy> ikonia, the only thing I can think of is shutdown, but shutdown has its own scheduler built in
[18:18] <baldaris> Tried that..just 2 people in channel..
[18:18] <ikonia> diddy: removing a torrent file after a download - does it matter ?
[18:18] <Pirate_Hunter> erUSUL, ok
[18:19] <LinuxAdmin> I know I can use graphical tools from another machines but it could be inside local network where are not to much risk
[18:19] <ikonia> baldaris: #winehq - sorry
[18:19] <oCean_> LinuxAdmin: if it's not a technical issue/question you have, could you continue discussion in #ubuntu-offtopic?
[18:19] <isolat3dsh33p> domjohnson, « aplay -l » checks detected sound cards. It should list something
[18:19] <diddy> ikonia, torrent clients can do that.
[18:19] <ikonia> diddy: I was giving you an example
[18:19] <diddy> ikonia, I just can not think of something that would require at
[18:19] <baldaris> ikonia, k..
[18:19] <ikonia> diddy: does it matter ?
[18:19] <LinuxAdmin> ok
[18:19] <diddy> ikonia, yes. I am curious. :)
[18:20] <ikonia> diddy: wait until a situation comes up and use it
[18:20] <jrib> diddy: cron is for things that repeat, at is for things that you want to happen once
[18:20] <isolat3dsh33p> Bcool, I'm sorry, I interpreted your question wrong. :/
[18:20] <domjohnson> Yes, it does. Thanks isolat3dsh33p
[18:21] <isolat3dsh33p> domjohnson, huwm, your welcome I guess. :)
[18:21] <wweasel> I need to rescue a Ubuntu install. Does anyone know off the tops of their heads of a small live distro (<200MB) which has LVM and ext4 support?
[18:21] <pratik_narain> empathy is not showing gtalk contacts. please help
[18:21] <domjohnson> it's an HDA Intel
[18:21] <Bcool> It's okay.
[18:21] <ikonia> wweasel: just use the ubuntu livecd
[18:21] <wweasel> ikonia, thanks. That's >200MB.
[18:21] <ikonia> wweasel: I know - but it's a solid platform
[18:21] <Misha> Hi folks. My old fileserver is running Hardy, now I'd like to move over to Karmic. What happens if I do a fresh install from the CD, without formatting my old drives and partitions? I presume old settings and installations will be lost? Should I go a step at a time, Karmic-Intrepid-Jaunty?
[18:22] <isolat3dsh33p> pratik_narain, it's not supported by empathy, if i'm not mistaken. :)
[18:22] <ikonia> Misha: it will be a problem, it will either try to upgrade or just dump things over the top, bad idea
[18:22] <e66> my xorg is using 60% CPU. not using any plasma. what is the problem?
[18:22] <Misha> ikonia: OK, so what would the proper procedure be?
[18:22] <pratik_narain> isolat3dsh33p: but it used to show them earlier
[18:23] <ikonia> Misha: an upgrade or a clean install
[18:23] <blakkheim> Misha: you might want to wait for lucid
[18:23] <oCean_> pratik_narain: are you sure you logged in correctly?
[18:23] <smellynosery> Hi - I have USB Audio, Terratec Aureon 5.1, but no sound is coming out of it
[18:23] <smellynosery> Has anybody got Terratec Aureon and actually has it working?
[18:23] <wweasel> ikonia, I know that too. If you want the full explanation: it's a laptop with a dying CD drive which refuses to boot the Linux CD, or USB disks/external CD drives. My boot partition has 200MB free, and I using grub2 I can mount an ISO there. I can't enlarge it because that would require live shrinking my root partition.
[18:23] <Pirate_Hunter> Misha, I agree with blakkheim advice
[18:23] <Misha> blakheim: Better upgradin possibilities, or just better system?
[18:24] <pratik_narain> oCean_: yup, pidgin works good, and i've imported the same account
[18:24] <ikonia> wweasel: check out distro watch
[18:24] <najmi> kl;jkhoihoutgouhkjp
[18:24] <oCean_> pratik_narain: don't know about importing. Maybe you could try "add" an account, being your google talk account?
[18:24] <JamesE> Nautilus shows my mp3 player as a Place and I can see the files.  But in terminal or Gnome Commander I can't find the mp3 device (USB). How do I manually navigate to the USB device?
[18:24] <isolat3dsh33p> pratik_narain, I guess, I'm wrong. That's probably pidgin :(
[18:25] <blakkheim> Misha: you can upgrade directory from hardy to lucid without going through all the versions
[18:25] <krigelkorren> wweasel, slitaz cooking version might have what you need
[18:25] <blakkheim> Misha: directly*
[18:25] <m_abs> I administrate an older server running ubuntu 7.10 and I needed to add a new large disk (1500GB), the kernel complained that it was a very large disk and wrote a size estimate of something like 9<IP_ADDRESS>.000.000 MB which of cause didn't work. Was there some problem in older kernels with that large disks? Both the BIOS and the SATA controller reported the disk correctly. (Upgrading is not an option at the moment)
[18:25] <erUSUL> JamesE: probably is in /media/
[18:25] <Misha> blakkheim: OK, is that a new feature in lucid?
[18:25] <blakkheim> Misha: no, it's because hardy and lucid are both LTS releases
[18:26] <krigelkorren> wweasel, slitaz cooking version might have what you need
[18:26] <jrib> !7.10 | m_abs
[18:26] <Misha> blakkheim: Ah, OK! Guess I might hang around then.
[18:26] <pratik_narain> oCean_: I've tried adding fresh account also. It showed all the contacts earlier but now nothing.
[18:27] <oCean_> pratik_narain: ah, ok. Don't know then, sorry
[18:27] <JamesE> erUSUL: /media has cdrom and cdrom0 directories, both empty.  No USB device in /media.  The USB device is plugged in now.
[18:28] <erUSUL> JamesE: what mp3 player is this ?
[18:28] <jrib> m_abs: 7.10 is no longer supported, is there a reason you haven't upgraded?
[18:28] <burzki> grkblood13, soundconverter
[18:29] <JamesE> erUSUL: It's a Sansa e260 in USB mode. Nautilus sees it, i can drag files to it. Want to do that in terminal, but I cant find the path...
[18:29] <erUSUL> JamesE: paste the file /proc/mounts

[18:32] <Wallace> CUPS question - I cannot connect to CUPS web interface on my server (<IP_ADDRESS>:631) from my desktop machine - I receive a '403 forbidden' error - can anybody give me any pointers as to how I might resolve this / discover what is wrong?
[18:33] <erUSUL> Wallace: maybe only localhost access is enabled in the cups configuration ?
[18:33] <m_abs> jrib, I know. The reason we havn't upgraded yet is that it's a server I've taken over responsibility for and I'm affraid I might break some of the services if I upgrade. So it needs to be when I have the time to handle any such problems.
[18:33] <sk-for-sex> any else sugestions?
[18:34] <ActionParsnip> sk-for-sex: apparently amarok and rythmbox can
[18:34] <m_abs> jrib, I've had a few failed upgrades and our fileserver cannot be offline for a long periode of time.
[18:34] <krigelkorren> sk-for-sex, think exaille can to via plug-in
[18:34] <Wallace> erUSUL: I believe I've made it available - I've changed the listen from localhost:631 to just 631, added "Browsing On" and "BrowseAllow all"
[18:34] <sk-for-sex> amarok for 9.10 kubuntu dosent support crossfade
[18:35] <erUSUL> Wallace: and indeed this what my own cupsd.conf reads # Only listen for connections from the local machine. \n Listen localhost:631
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> sk-for-sex: http://ljubomir.simin.googlepages.com/amarok-fadeout1.png/amarok-fadeout1-full.jpg
[18:35] <krigelkorren> sk-for-sex,  exaile*
[18:35] <oCean_> Wallace: use "sudo netstat -anp |grep 631" to see whether cups is still listening on <IP_ADDRESS>:631
[18:36] <Wallace> oCean_: listening on <IP_ADDRESS>:631
[18:36] <erUSUL> Wallace: are you sure just 631 is valid ? it is maybe <IP_ADDRESS>:631 or all:631 or *:631 ?
[18:36] <Wallace> erUSUL: I changed the listen (see my earlier) - It is now responding with a 403 error, rather than simply ignoring it
[18:36] <oCean_> Wallace: ok, so that's correct. No conflicting rules in hosts.allow/deny (default empty i think)
[18:37] <deviad> Hello
[18:37] <erUSUL> Wallace: what about Allow all directive ? for a quick reading of the cupsd.conf manpage ?

[18:39] <shamimzaki> ActionParsnip: i want a minimal xfce
[18:39] <effi> is there still no possibility implemented in ubuntu to change the login screen?
[18:39] <duffydack> Anyone care to help me sort out this cd/dvd writer that doesnt work in ubuntu but works in windows fine.  Ive wasted a dozen dvds already.  I did get it to burn an iso lastnight with sudo cdrecord blah blah, I`d tried it before, same command same discs and never worked, and not worked since....brasero/k3b/gnomebaker all give errors.  I`m lost
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> jari_: has the res ever been ok or is this a fresh intall with bad resolution currently?
[18:39] <fatum> Private_Hunter:  /var/www/mydomain.com is this user's home directory
[18:39] <fatum> How can I give thisuser permission to do anything in this directory?
[18:39] <jrib> effi: not with the new gdm
[18:39] <deviad> Can anyone pls tell me how I avoid to let Ubuntu upgrade some packages?
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> shamimzaki: then installing xfce4 will give you the bare minimum xfce desktop
[18:39] <jrib> !permissions > fatum
[18:39] <effi> jrib do you know when it will be implemented?
[18:39] <JamesE> erUSUL: my cat /proc/mounts is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/354621/
[18:40] <jari_> actionparsnip: sometimes when i launch something in fullscreen the screen switches to 1600x1200 wich is unsuported by my screen, and yes it does that more times
[18:40] <deviad> like the kernel for example... if I am not interested into kernel updates... how do I avoid that?
[18:40] <jrib> effi: no, check gdm development upstream I guess
[18:40] <Wallace> Ahh, didn't think there would be a #cups - will try there
[18:40] <jari_> but now i cant restart my pc becouse something important is running
[18:40] <effi> jrib is there a way of manually somehow to reset it to standarts? because i changed it to a white thing, and now it really looks awkward
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> deviad: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/prevent-apt-get-from-upgrading-a-package-449984/    You can 'pin' the version
[18:40] <jrib> effi: I don't know
[18:40] <erUSUL> JamesE: maybe is gvfs managing it? look in ~/.gvfs/
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> jari_: weird, is it using an intel video card per chance?
[18:41] <jari_> ActionParsnip: i'm using a nvidia geforce 7 series
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> jari_: which driver are you using?
[18:42] <JamesE> erUSUL: There it is! Thank you very much! bye
[18:42] <erUSUL> JamesE: no problem
[18:42] <jari_> ActionParsnip: i have no idea actualy... how do i check it?
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> jari_: dpkg -l | grep nvidia-glx      will do it

[18:45] <Jordan_U> wweasel: You can also use GRUB2 to allow you to boot from usb, though that code is still young
[18:45] <jari__> ActionParsnip: thanks but how do i save my current session?
[18:45] <jari__> ActionParsnip: i cant terminate it bcuz of some important work >.>
[18:45] <Royall> Whenever I click something, it usually registers it as two clicks in quick succession. When I drag something, it can interpret it as a click, two clicks, or just whatever
[18:45] <wweasel> Jordan_U, interesting idea. I don't have a nice large spare USB stick though, but if this fails I'll shuffle stuff around and give it a shot.
[18:45] <Royall> I'm using a logitech notebook mouse, which could explain it
[18:46] <Jordan_U> Royall: Have you tried with a different mouse?
[18:46] <jrib> Royall: tried a different mouse?  I've had two mice fail like that
[18:46] <wweasel> Jordan_U, right now I'm rolling my own Ubuntu Live CD to get it down to <200MB.
[18:46] <Royall> I'll try, one sec
[18:47] <^paradox^> ok i was in here last nite with a problem. every time i tried to open a an audio or video file by single left clicking it to open it with totem totem would flash and disappear. then when i right clicked on it and selected properties to change it to open with something else the folder would flash, my desktop would flash and disappear, and my home folder was brought up
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> jari__: not sure, wait til its convenient then reboot (after adding the ppa and updating / upgrading)
[18:47] <jari__> okay
[18:48] <jari__> ActionParsnip: can you resend me the link when i'm rebooted then?
[18:48] <Royall> ach, it seems to be the mouse
[18:48] <Guest22753> anyone know anything about the grub rescue command prompt?
[18:48] <Royall> Is there any way to fix it? Or should I just toss the mouse
[18:48] <hanshenrik> i got a problem with my wlan card;i have Realtek RTL8187SE;can see networks, but i cannot connect to any of em, on an unencrypted network: DHCP (witch on the same computer, same hardware, works perfectly in Win7) goes in an unlimited loop trying to obtain a IP, and with a manually set up IP/Gateway/DNS, it goes as far as beleiving its connected, but i cant connect anywhere; with an encrypted...
[18:48] <hanshenrik> ...network, it spins for a while, then says its wrong password (witch is it not), i got the same problem on Ubuntu 9.10, 10.04, and debian;ideas?
[18:48] <Jordan_U> !anyone | Guest22753
[18:49] <^paradox^> i talked with ardchoille and he asked what was in /etc/apt/sources.list and i told him about six files two of which were to do with gutsy, but i have hardy 8.04. he said i may need to reinstall my os
[18:49] <^paradox^> i dont doubt his skills at all, but is there any way to avoid this
[18:49] <Jordan_U> ^paradox^: Did you upgrade from gutsy?
[18:50] <skyl> all was fine and then I upgraded some stuff (already karmic just taking in some aptitude upgrades) and now grub looks for sdc1 instead of sda1 ... if I hit 'e' and specify sda1 it boots okay, if I just try to boot what grub presents as options I get the intrfms (sp?) shell
[18:50] <tflgen2> jrib: it is mounting with root root permissions, how do I have it mount with tfl tfl (user group) perms?
[18:50] <^paradox^> yes i upgraded when it showed up in the updates manager
[18:50] <Jordan_U> ^paradox^: Then it's normal that there should be gutsy entries in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ ( though they should all be disabled )
[18:50] <skyl> any ideas what I can configure/edit to set grub straight?
[18:50] <^paradox^> thats how im used to getting updates
[18:50] <skyl> !grub2
[18:50] <jrib> tflgen2: it has nothing to do with how you mount it.  ext3 stores permissions.  Simply change them as the link ubottu gave you explains (chown, and chmod)
[18:51] <Guest22753> I'm trying to install grub2 to it's own partition, which i thought i did with Ubuntu 9.10 live cd by assigning /boot to that partition, while installing ubuntu to it's own /root partition.  When I rebooted and took the live cd out, I ended up at the grub rescue prompt, where the only command I've been able to execute was ls, but I can't execute ls -lh on any of the listed partitions to show their contents
[18:51] <^paradox^> but this is causing me a real problem. i right click and look at properties a lot
[18:51] <^paradox^> it only does it with audio and video, not text or pictures
[18:51] <LewisDre4m> Ok I have never been so confused in my life. I just bought an mp3 player for christmas and everytime I copied an album across to it I would get on my mp3 player and see the tracks were out of order (tags are correct) so for example a 12 track album would have track 4. 8. 6. 3. not 1. 2. 3. 4. etc . . anyway after reading more online I started to notice a patern . . . the people who mentioned they were using linux seemed to have this problem. I ran down
[18:52] <najmi> bantu aku ke orang indonesia

[18:52] <Myrtti> !id | najmi
[18:52] <LewisDre4m> ran down stairs and copied the SAME folder from windows to my mp3 player and BANG they are in order. WHAT THE HELL is that all about?
[18:52] <tflgen2> jrib: k thx
[18:52] <Jordan_U> Guest22753: Can you try something like "ls (hd0,1)/" ( note the '/' at the end ) ?
[18:52] <sllide> ActionParsnip, what was the link again?
[18:53] <General13372> hey, I'm having a problem with my wireless adapter. For some reason I can only browse google, search on google, etc. But no other sites load, it just freezes midway and doesnt load any further. It works just fine on a ethernet connection though.
[18:53] <najmi> #ubuntu-id dimana
[18:53] <General13372> Does anyone know why this is happening?
[18:53] <^paradox^> would uninstalling totem possibly end this? i have vlc and mplayer
[18:53] <Real_Ubot> Can anyone please explain why I can no longer login to my ssh server using my key? I get Permission denied (publickey). I had to restart my computers since the electricity was lost.
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> sllide: what for?

Weirdly when I created the folder manually then copied the tracks across by copy and paste they shoed in order but then went out of order shortly after playing . . . but this did NOT happen from windows.

[18:59] <blakkheim> rolo: an ftp SERVER doesn't need a gui, but there are gui ftp CLIENTs
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> rolo: you can file transfer using ssh and its secure rather than ftp which is not
[19:00] <llutz> ftps exist
[19:00] <MorphyNOR> rolo: glftpd is a server
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> blakkheim: guis do exist though, if users want them then they are usable
[19:00] <blakkheim> llutz: ssh is much more  secure than ssl :/

[19:04] <ActionParsnip> !contribute | isym
[19:04] <MorphyNOR> bdesk: fast?
[19:04] <ActionParsnip> ^paradox^: it will remove the totem plugin from firefox if you use it
[19:04] <djuggler> can qmail be installed along with sendmail or does sendmail need to be removed first?
[19:05] <bdesk> I want "apt-get install" to download stuff at lots of megabytes per second instead of only a few kilobytes per second.
[19:05] <blakkheim> bdesk: lol
[19:05] <isym> what is contribute ActionParsnip
[19:05] <MorphyNOR> bdesk: get a better internet connection?

[19:05] <isym> how ActionParsnip
[19:05] <nicauron> mi chiedevo come effettuare un downgrade dalla 9.10 alla 8.04 LTS
[19:05] <lysek> Jordan_U: grub won't compile on amd64
[19:06] <nicauron> si può fare senza perdità dei dati?
[19:06] <Jordan_U> lysek: It should
[19:06] <ActionParsnip> isym: the line I gave made ubottu speak, read her output
[19:06] <ActionParsnip> lysek: why not?
[19:06] <^paradox^> ok so its pretty much a safe move
[19:06] <bdesk> There is something called netselect-apt that finds a fast mirror.  It was originally developed for debian, and used to be in Ubuntu.  It was buggy and was removed.  What is the recommended non-obsolete alternative?
[19:06] <lysek> Jordan_U: it says: grub is only i386; after i type make
[19:06] <ActionParsnip> lysek: weird
[19:06] <^paradox^> i have vlc and mplayer. i dont think i need totem
[19:06] <ActionParsnip> lysek: have you ran configure     first?
[19:07] <Jordan_U> lysek: grub for BIOS based pcs is always going to be x86, BIOS can't handle anything else
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> ^paradox^: i'd agree

[19:07] <Jordan_U> lysek: BIOS carries a lot of legacy baggage :)

[19:08] <lysi> 2nd attempt. I've searched all irc logs in Jan10. Anyone can confirm while hibernating no update-manager pops up?
[19:08] <Real_Ubot> I have replaced ip and some other info by xxx to avid publishing infp that would compromize the security. :)
[19:08] <^paradox^> ive gotten so many things setup and working right
[19:08] <Jordan_U> Guest22753: Ok, try running "set prefix=(hd0,6)/grub"
[19:08] <diddy> jrib, does kill stop a program gracefully? I thought it would shoot it down.
[19:08] <jrib> diddy: it sends SIGTERM, which the program can respond to however it wants
[19:09] <ActionParsnip> lysek: is there a bug report for it?
[19:09] <bdesk> How do I find a fast mirror?

[19:10] <ActionParsnip> mha2908: have you websearched it to find guides?
[19:10] <jrib> bdesk: search apt, I believe there is some similar program
[19:10] <Jordan_U> lysek: Also, what is saying the partition is not linux, and why is that a problem when it's supposed to be a BSD slice?
[19:10] <bdesk> jrib: what do you mean search apt? you mean read the apt manual?
[19:10] <mha2908> I tried, but was unsuccessful, do you see anything?
[19:10] <jrib> bdesk: no, apt-cache search or whatever you prefer

[19:11] <bdesk> jrib: apt-cache search netselect gives only one result and it's not applicable.
[19:11] <bdesk> jrib: no, netselect-apt is broken in ubuntu and was removed.
[19:12] <rangor> blakkheim: intel dual core 2 GHz, intel serial 4 chipset something and use totem
