[06:11] <kiichiro> ghsh, has it worked before on your current linux.
[06:11] <ghsh> cloventt: yes
[06:11] <ghsh> kiichiro: yes just stop this week
[06:12] <ghsh> kiichiro: i don't mind it for usb but it won't mount ipod either
[06:12] <kiichiro> ouch
[06:12] <ghsh> kiichiro: nothing mounts unless root mounts it with mount command
[06:13] <kiichiro> I'm sorry but I'm still learning a bit myself and was hoping that it was something I could try to help solve but seems I'm going to have to say sorry can't help.
[06:13] <ghsh> :0
[06:14] <kiichiro> Since I too am trying to find a way to automount certain devices
[06:14] <ghsh> kiichiro: like?
[06:15] <rypervenche> kiichiro: hey there
[06:15] <kiichiro> hey rypervenche
[06:15] <vorbis5> is setting the refresh rate in compiz really high safe?
[06:15] <ghsh> kiichiro: before ubuntu spoiled me with something that no longer works i just wrote an entry in fstab
[06:16] <bullgard4> wols: The command '~$ apt-cache search metacity' prints 40 lines. I do not know what this set of 40 items has in common. 'man apt-cache; search performs a full text search on all available package lists for the POSIX regex pattern given.' I still do not know between what parties are the files shared that are contained in metacity-common.
[06:17] <rypervenche> I finally set up my filters for this chat, helps soooo much. No more spam.
[06:17] <hariykeyboard> where's the hidden file for Rhythmbox?
[06:21] <kiichiro> rypervenche, did you tell me bout compiz the first time I joined linux or after I got it the second time
[06:21] <cloventt> ghsh: usb not automounting could be a policy kit issue
[06:21] <erpo> Hi. I'm looking for file format documentation for the .tib files generated by Acronis True Image. Any pointers?
[06:21] <gab73>  has anyone had problems with dansguardian/firehol/tinyproxy set up. Many sites return blank screen or encoding error message
[06:21] <bc81> guys i need some help please.  when i move files from one folder to another on my USB hard drive, it copies the file instead of moving it.  this is for xubuntu 10.10 the HDD is mounted in fstab like this: /dev/sdc1 /media/seagate ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.utf8 0 0
[06:21] <rypervenche> kiichiro: No clue.
[06:21] <ubun> can someone enlighten me s to what memory and swap history means?
[06:21] <kiichiro> lol okay
[06:22] <kiichiro> well time to check than
[06:22] <kiichiro> okay it was last time, know this since it's not installed atm
[06:22] <Christiannn> hi
[06:22] <wols> bc81: so the command "mv" suddenly copies?
[06:22] <brylie> ubun, memory would be your system memory such as RAM. Swap is a portion of your hard drive that is reserved to augment ram, it is sort of like a spill over for RAM.
[06:23] <wols> brylie: that's not what he asked
[06:23] <brylie> !swap | ubunn
[06:23] <brylie> !swap | ubun
[06:23] <bc81> wols: not sure, i'm using the thunar file manager and whenever i say drag and drop a file into another folder within the hard drive, it makes another copy, instead of simply moving the file
[06:23] <brylie> wols, they predicate his answer it seems.
[06:23] <wols> bc81: that's a thunar problem. has nothing to do with how you mounted it. and I suggest you ask #xubuntu
[06:24] <ubun> @brylie: 495.7 mib would be the two 256mb ram?
[06:24] <brylie> ubun, yes
[06:24] <bc81> wols: ok i'll ask there, i was just thinking maybe it had to do with the way i mounted the drive in fstab since it just started happening
[06:25] <brylie> ubun, and the history graph would show the recent RAM usage.
[06:25] <brylie> ubun, where are you seeing this history?
[06:25] <Guest53559> create folder with "sudo mkdir /mnt/flash" then  "sudo mount /dev/sdc1 or /dev/sdc" then "mv -v  /home/folder/*  /mnt/flash" then just "umount  /mnt/flash" that's it
[06:26] <ubun> @brylie in he system  monitor. ok... is it normal for the cpu  to be at 99 to 100%
[06:26] <brylie> ubun, sorry if you are not a 'he'. That was presumptive of me.
[06:26] <ghsh> cloventt: policy kit issue?
[06:26] <cloventt> ghsh: well thats what google told me
[06:27] <cloventt> ghsh: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=857374
[06:27] <ghsh> cloventt: did it say a fix?
[06:27] <brylie> ubun, not usually. It depends on how many applications are running. For example, installing updates will use a lot of CPU for a short duration.
[06:27] <cloventt> ghsh: it said a possible solution
[06:27] <ghsh> cloventt: thanks
[06:27] <cmatheson> i just ran ecryptfs-migrate-home (which suggested that i record the output of "ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase ~/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase
[06:27] <cmatheson> but there is no ~/.ecrypts/wrapped-passphrase
[06:28] <brylie> ubun, what are your computer specs? Specifically, CPU.
[06:28] <ubun> @brylie: i meant to put "the" ...i think it maybe just that its a bad processor.. 1.33ghz? bad right?
[06:28] <wols> ubun: no it's not
[06:29] <ubun> @brylie: or would it be slow because i only have 256mb ram or is it the 1.33 ghz pent4? or both?
[06:29] <ubun> or @wols
[06:29] <wols> brylie: fyi, installing stuff is I/O bound. won't use CPU at all
[06:29] <angrodnenharma> hey got a quick question
[06:29] <wols> ubun: 256MB is pretty low for ubuntu. it will swap a lot and that will make it very slow
[06:30] <angrodnenharma> will ubuntu use my realtek RTL8111/8168B pci express wireless card?
[06:30] <wols> angrodnenharma: yes
[06:30] <angrodnenharma> im currently using kubuntu 10.10 and i cant get wireless for crap
[06:30] <wols> angrodnenharma: that is no wireless card btw
[06:30] <angrodnenharma> really?
[06:30] <angrodnenharma> oh
[06:30] <angrodnenharma> oops
[06:30] <wols> it's a gigabit ethernet.  run lspci -nn  and pastebin the output
[06:31] <brylie> wols, my computer slows significantly when installing. What would be the cause?
[06:31] <ubun> @wols: ILL look into getting an upgrade. i just got it working i bought this pc at  thrift store for $25. thanks for the help.
[06:31] <wols> brylie: I told you: I/O bound
[06:31] <kiichiro> I've noticed the ubuntu series at least (probably more just used xubuntu and regular ubuntu) are really good with their drivers.
[06:31] <wols> ubun: use xubuntu or lubuntu. it uses less RAM
[06:31] <angrodnenharma> cant really pastebin it im on another laptop i use my landlords wireless dont have access to a wired connection
[06:31] <brylie> ubun, I thought that you had two sticks of 256mb ram.
[06:31] <ubun> yeah i do
[06:32] <brylie> ok :)
[06:32] <ubun> @wols: it probably doesnt help that it is 11.04
[06:32] <wols> angrodnenharma: what notebook is it?
[06:32] <brylie> ubun, have you considered a lightweight linux distribution?
[06:32] <angrodnenharma> wols: lenovo thinkpad s510
[06:33] <angrodnenharma> *sl510
[06:33] <kiichiro> ryp can I pm you
[06:33] <rypervenche> kiichiro: I'm not a fan of Compiz anymore. Too buggy.
[06:33] <wols> angrodnenharma: that one's wireless will work fine with ubuntu
[06:33] <Hanzo>  slm
[06:33] <brylie> wols, I looked up IO bound. Thanks :)
[06:33] <rypervenche> sure
[06:33] <Hanzo>  hi
[06:33] <bazhang> Hanzo, hi
[06:33] <kiichiro> dunno how to use it, and I thought that might of been the difference with my minecraft
[06:33] <ubun> @brylie i like ubuntu.. its actually first linux that i tried
[06:33] <angrodnenharma> thanks wols, i got sick of windows, i used to use linux then stopped now im back ty ty
[06:34] <wols> angrodnenharma: it either uses a intel wireless card or an atheros one. both work fine. btw, it's SL510
[06:34] <ubun> @brylie: thanks for the help @wols:thanks for the help
[06:34] <angrodnenharma> wow, sorry im a lil frazzled tonight ;/ just lost everything on my harddrive due to kittens -.-
[06:35] <wols> due to kittens?
[06:35] <rypervenche> angrodnenharma: I had that happen 2 days ago. Mom dropped my 1TB with EVERYTHING of mine on it :(
[06:35] <angrodnenharma> kitten knocked laptop off kitchen table while i was replacing the heat sink -.-
[06:35] <brylie> ubun, there are some nice, lightweight Ubuntu distributions that may work smoothly on your computer.
[06:36] <windparadise> hello, pls how do we remove a synlink?
[06:36] <windparadise> symlink
[06:36] <wols> windparadise: man rm
[06:37] <ranjan> hi all, is there any opensource solution to manage the informations related to multiple hosting accounts, the ip details, website details the related mysql details etc ?
[06:37] <Hanzo>  slm
[06:38] <bazhang> Hanzo, hi. ubuntu support question?
[06:38] <Drone4four> bazhang, you have come to the right place
[06:38] <Drone4four> ask away
[06:39] <cloventt> Drone4four: i lol'd
[06:39] <Drone4four> cloventt, ?
[06:39] <ranjan> Hanzo, is that answer for me?
[06:40] <wols> Drone4four: bazhang is an op in #ubuntu...
[06:40] <cloventt> ja.... awkward
[06:41] <Drone4four> woops
[06:42] <cloventt> ranjan: how do you mean? couldn't you use a text document to keep track of things like that?
[06:43] <ranjan> cloventt, managing using a text document will get into trouble because we have around 5 different hosting providers with different control panels and around 500 sites
[06:44] <bullgard4> windparadise: You can use the mc program. Highlight the symlink and press the "Delete" key.
[06:44] <cloventt> ranjan: do you know of any closed source versions of what you are looking for?
[06:44] <ranjan> cloventt, i found one but, i forgot the name, let me check
[06:46] <angrodnenharma> wols: quick question aparrently i might have been slightly moronic
[06:46] <angrodnenharma> i have ubuntu installed
[06:46] <angrodnenharma> -.-
[06:47] <wols> angrodnenharma: that's a good start ;)
[06:47] <angrodnenharma> may i pc you wols?
[06:47] <dimitris> hi
[06:47] <anishsitoula> sometimes my linux crash???
[06:47] <ranjan> cloventt, actually i dont want to manage server from a central location but want to keep the records so that i dont need to login to the hosting control panel each time
[06:47] <wols> no you may not. you also may stop mistreating your enter key
[06:47] <anishsitoula> what to do?
[06:47] <wols> !enter | angrodnenharma
[06:48] <angrodnenharma> im sorry, its a habit most of the people i talk to online say i type to fast so its a habit of hitting enter so they can read it in short lines rather than a paragraph
[06:48] <bullgard4> How can I put the "ThinkVantage" key to good use in my T61 in my Ubuntu Natty?
[06:48] <dimitris> need some help.anyone knows how to enable direct rendering in ATI radeon with proprietary drivers (corrrectly) intsalled?
[06:48] <anishsitoula> sometimes my linux crash???
[06:48] <cloventt> ranjan: sorry i can't seem to find any open source applications that fit that task.
[06:48] <anishsitoula> what to do?
[06:49] <wols> dimitris: if they were correctly installed you wouldn't have to ask
[06:49] <bazhang> anishsitoula, what version of ubuntu
[06:49] <bazhang> bullgard4, that brings up the bios, better to leave it free
[06:49] <angrodnenharma> so heres my problem.  every time i try and connect to my wireless, i type in the password, and it goes through configuring interface, then it asks me for my password again.  any ideas whats wrong?
[06:49] <anishsitoula> ubuntu 11.04
[06:49] <bazhang> anishsitoula, need many more details
[06:49] <bullgard4> anishsitoula: This crash reflects in /var/log/dmesg.0 . Please analyze.
[06:50] <anishsitoula> thanx
[06:50] <bazhang> angrodnenharma, the keyring password?
[06:50] <angrodnenharma> no, the password for my wireless internet
[06:50] <wols> angrodnenharma: I don't do network manager since I think it's a POS
[06:51] <angrodnenharma> what would you suggest me use, wols? im open to anything i just need wireless as soon as possible
[06:51] <cloventt> angrodnenharma: i had a similar issue. it turned out my wireless card could not contact my router correctly. the problem was fixed when i changed the broadcast channel on my router
[06:51] <angrodnenharma> ahhh...that i cannot do cloventt i do not have access to the router, i use my landlords
[06:52] <dimitris> wols :) : so it is a matter o bad installation? cant do anything besides trying reintall them?
[06:52] <cloventt> angrodnenharma: then i guess my solution won't help D:
[06:52] <angrodnenharma> wait nope.  i do have kubuntu installed -.- everythin i saw said ubuntu cept the main package
[06:52] <wols> dimitris: probably. but you don't give enough infromation to say anything
[06:52] <angrodnenharma> ill be back later when i install the ubuntu 10.4 disk that i have
[06:52] <angrodnenharma> -.-
[06:52] <ranjan> cloventt, this is the closed source one http://www.digitalstarproducts.com/star/-detail-64.html
[06:56] <dimitris> wols :i followed this wiki http://blo.gr/681..on  fglrxinfo i get what the wiki says it is considered a successful installation
[06:57] <dimitris> on glxinfo|grep direct . i get No (LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT set). i unset it but after restart i goes back "no"
[06:58] <dimitris> it is ATI RADEON HD 6790
[06:58] <mrdeb> wow
[06:58] <soreau> dimitris: Something is setting LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT on by default?
[06:58] <mrdeb> was is expensive
[06:59] <dimitris> soreau:i guess so..but i can not find i way to inset it permanently..
[06:59] <wols> dimitris: how do you set it?
[06:59] <dimitris> to unset it permanently , i meant
[07:00] <wols> dimitris: and how do you check if it's set?
[07:00] <soreau> dimitris: Better to find out what's setting it. Try 'grep -Rn LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT /etc && grep -Rn LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT ~/'
[07:00] <dimitris> wols: if i give unset LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT
[07:01] <dimitris> the it gets direct rendering: yes. but only for the session..(althouht i does not get trully activated,it just says it is activated.i tested)
[07:02] <dimitris> sorry for the mistakes,it is early in the morning here :)
[07:03] <dimitris> sorau: i get (with sudo): etc/blkid.tab: No such file or directory,/etc/motd: No such file or directory
[07:04] <soreau> dimitris: Ignore those, just look for files that contain the interesting string
[07:05] <wols> dimitris: irrelevant. btw, I suggest to start ubuntu without a display manager, then log in and check for the env variable. only then you want to grep /etc and the rest
[07:05] <wols> if it's not there, run startx and then check again for the env variable
[07:05] <soreau> dimitris: It might be in /etc/environment
[07:06] <wols> soreau: that one's deprecated. and unlikely
[07:06] <soreau> wols: I don't even know why it would be setting this var
[07:07] <asif_> how can I create shortcuts on my desktop?
[07:07] <soreau> must be some desperate fglrx hack
[07:07] <soreau> asif_: Drag stuff to it?
[07:07] <asif_> from the unity?
[07:07] <wols> soreau: it most certainly doesn't. his "special" fglrx install nmost likely did. maybe his PPA shit, maybe X on itself I dunno. but it most probably gets set by some X startup thing
[07:08] <blzp> could someone suggest a backup program to me? I'm looking for something that can encrypt my backup and then upload it elsewhere else
[07:08] <asif_> soreau__: from the unity?
[07:08] <MooshiMuushi> Hey everyone! Been a while! :D
[07:09] <wols> !backup > blzp
[07:09] <blzp> thanks
[07:10] <dimitris> from grep, i get something in /home/dimitris/.bash_history..
[07:11] <wols> dimitris: duh. considering you unset it several times...
[07:11] <dimitris> can someone give the link of the copy-paste page (or something like that) that you use in this channel
[07:11] <wols> dimitris: are you really really sure your 6790 doesn't work with the ubuntu supplied restricted fglrx drivers?
[07:12] <wols> !paste
[07:13] <asif_> how can I find my conky? (just installed)
[07:13] <dimitris> wols:i think they worked for a while but after restarted a couple of times i got blank screen on startup. suggest i try those again?
[07:13] <wols> asif_: dpkg -L <packagename>
[07:13] <rypervenche> asif_: conky & disown
[07:13] <olskolirc> how do I set pico to wrap long lines automatically please?
[07:14] <wols> dimitris: we certainly can only support those. for support for some random PPA, I suggest said random PPA tech support...
[07:14] <asif_> I typed "conky" in "search application" but nothing appeared!
[07:14] <MooshiMuushi> Ahh. There we go :d
[07:14] <wols> !ppa > dimitris
[07:14] <rypervenche> asif_: you'll probably want to have it start up at startup. Just type what I typed in a terminal.
[07:14] <MooshiMuushi> Hey everyone :D
[07:14] <Lexx> hi guys
[07:15] <CppIsWeird> im using tightvnc, every time i press the d key, it does show desktop. wtf?
[07:15] <mrdeb> hi
[07:15] <wols> CppIsWeird: maybe some key like ctrl or alt or such is "stuck" for some reason?
[07:15] <asif_> oh i see thanks
[07:15] <MooshiMuushi> Problem.  Thus it's stuck minimise. Any idea?
[07:15] <CppIsWeird> wols, i've restarted the client and the machine... same thing.
[07:16] <wols> CppIsWeird: use a different vnc client?
[07:16] <CppIsWeird> guess its worth a try.
[07:16] <MooshiMuushi> Idea to fix this small bug?
[07:17] <MooshiMuushi> Hmm. I might restart the computer. Brb.
[07:17] <Lexx> can anyone reccommend the best way to install ubuntu onto a flash drive? or reccommend a custom persistant memory resident boot that will run a series of scripts on startup?
[07:18] <CppIsWeird> wols, tightvnc viewer and realvnc viewer do the same thing. all i did was apt-get tightvncserver. i havent even had time to screw it up.
[07:18] <wols> !best
[07:18] <wols> CppIsWeird: you use a windows vnc client?
[07:18] <CppIsWeird> yes
[07:19] <dimitris> wols: so i must i  try drivers from the supported PPA again? a truly correct installation assumes that openGL works fine with no extra tweaking?
[07:19] <brylie> Lexx, have you checked out unetbootn?
[07:20] <wols> dimitris: restricted is no PPA
[07:20] <wols> dimitris: and you must do nothing at all
[07:21] <wols> brylie: install TO
[07:21] <Lexx> no but i dont think it will solve my issue
[07:21] <Lexx> i jsut read the wiki
[07:21] <Lexx> thx tho
[07:22] <Lexx> the problem with an ubuntu iso off a flash drive is that when the box restarts it asks of you want to boot to buntu or install
[07:22] <brylie> wols, TO?
[07:22] <dimitris> wols: oopss (newbie mistakes) :)...the ubuntu X team PPA ...
[07:22] <Lexx> i just need it to load ubuntu and start an application
[07:22] <wols> brylie: yes, as opposed to "install from".
[07:22] <brylie> wols, oh, I see.
[07:23] <CppIsWeird> im using tightvncserver, every time i press the d key in either tightvnc viewer or realvnc viewer, it does show desktop. wtf?
[07:23] <Lexx> i want to just install to one of the flash drives but my concern is that by doing a standard install it will kill the flash drive with unnecessary writes over time
[07:24] <pc_> hello
[07:24] <wols> Lexx: then mount noatime, prune syslog conf ruthlessly, etc
[07:25] <pc_> I am please any help
[07:25] <wols> Lexx: I'm sure there are howtos for that
[07:25] <wols> !ask | pc_
[07:25] <Lexx> i know there are
[07:25] <pc_> how can I move the window in desktop ?
[07:25] <Lexx> it is just that i cant find aanyhting for 11.04 or somthing recent and i fear that things may have changed over the years
[07:25] <pc_> plz any one
[07:26] <wols> Lexx: not really. if anything it got better since SSDs are now more and more mainstream
[07:26] <pksadiq> pc_ ?
[07:26] <Lexx> pc_ click on the title bar and drag?
[07:26] <MooshiMuushi> Done :d Fixed it :)
[07:26] <pc_> I am not able to move the windows page in my desktop ?
[07:27] <pksadiq> pc_ I think you are using compiz, enable window options in ccsm
[07:27] <pc_> for example in this window that we chat in I am not able to move it anywhere
[07:27] <Lexx> on a slightly similar note if i had a running usb stick what software could i use to clone it over say 50 other usb sticks
[07:28] <mundi> Hello!
[07:28] <pksadiq> !Ccsm |pc_ install and open it
[07:30] <pc_> okay thanks I will see
[07:30] <th^^> unmaximize it to move..
[07:30] <viruxINf3ct3d> pls how can i connect my usb stick broadand modem on ubuntu
[07:30] <iz_> Hi, can someone point me in the right direction for an easy install guide of ubuntu on my Nokia N900?
[07:31] <dr_willis>  Lexx  dd can do that.
[07:31] <Lexx> ahh
[07:31] <Lexx> perfect
[07:31] <Lexx> thank you
[07:31] <bazhang> iz_, is it even possible? doubt there's an "easy" guide for that
[07:31] <viruxINf3ct3d> pls how can i connect my usb stick broadand modem on ubuntu
[07:31] <mundi> I'd just like to say "I FKN LOVE MY UBUNTU!!!"
[07:31] <bazhang> mundi, watch the language
[07:32] <th^^> anyone btw have idea why all opengl apps/windows 'overlay' on top without compiz?-)
[07:32] <viruxINf3ct3d> pls how can i connect my usb stick broadand modem on ubuntu
[07:32] <mundi> np... isnt bazhang a swearword in swahili?
[07:32] <kiichiro> hey I need help trying to update my graphics card, I supposedly have the most updated but I believe it's not the most up to date as it should be
[07:32] <bazhang> viruxINf3ct3d, plug it in, check nm-applet
[07:32] <viruxINf3ct3d> pls how can i connect my usb stick broadand modem on ubuntu?
[07:32] <iz_> I know its possible just by looking the Maemo 5 forums but haven't found a simple install guide.
[07:32] <sagaci> Plug it in to usb port
[07:32] <dr_willis> viruxINf3ct3d,  details on the device, and a check of the wiki/forums if  network manager dosent see it. would be the first step.
[07:33] <viruxINf3ct3d> dr_willis have plug it in, saw it as a device but nothing works
[07:34] <viruxINf3ct3d> it just shows sit and the exe file is not execurable
[07:34] <mundi> theres your problem...
[07:34] <mundi> If it says .exe
[07:34] <viruxINf3ct3d> the device is meant for windows applications
[07:34] <dr_willis> viruxINf3ct3d,  what exe file are you talking about?

[07:37] <dr_willis> viruxINf3ct3d,  you should check the forums perhaps for the exact make of decice you have. there may be some work around to get it going.

[07:48] <A_J> celthunder, i want to use it to que files while transfering to my external hdd, as ubuntu defalut handler has no que functioons
[07:48] <A_J> like tera copy for windows

[07:49] <mundi> celthunder, try

[07:50] <celthunder> mundi: ?

[07:52] <xgt001> hello everyone, i have 3 partitions for ubuntu 10.10 (swap, /, /home) and i am dual booting with win7,, can i install natty alongside these by formatting /home ??
[07:53] <sarit> kiichiro: use lspci -nn
[07:53] <mundi> minicopier is great, I use it.
[07:53] <bazhang> A_J, you wanted the ubuntu equivalent of teracopy. that is it.
[07:53] <A_J> mundi, it's a tar :(
[07:53] <A_J> ty bazhang
[07:54] <bazhang> xgt001, why not just upgrade 10.10 to 11.04
[07:54] <bazhang> kiichiro, lspci to paste.ubuntu.com for your card
[07:55] <xgt001> bazhang: 11.04 runs a lot noisy, in laptops with reduced battery i had  tried before (a known launchpad bug #760131)... so i want a triple boot
[07:55] <mundi> A_J: extract tar.. doubleclick .sh file to istall.

[07:57] <bazhang> GeForce FX 5500 kiichiro check additional drivers for that
[07:57] <asutosh> gert
[07:57] <kiichiro> thank you guys very much, I'm just brand new, maybe a week into linux
[07:57] <mundi> welcome kiichiro
[07:57] <magus> Does anybody have pulseaudio doing what it's supposed to outside of gnome?
[07:58] <bazhang> MagusOTB, ask your real question please
[07:58] <MagusOTB> It doesn't work. Things can't share the soundcard, and some things just won't make sound.
[07:58] <A_J> bazhang : The installation of a package which violates the quality standards isn't allowed. This could cause serious problems on your computer. Please contact the person or organisation who provided this package file and include the details beneath.
[07:58] <MagusOTB> like, if I'm running MPD, which is configured to use it, nothing else makes sound
[07:58] <MagusOTB> same with Totem
[07:58] <bazhang> A_J, then install preload
[07:58] <MagusOTB> and firefox, and some other stuff too
[07:59] <A_J> pardon ? this is the .deb file bazhang
[07:59] <MagusOTB> it works fine when I log into ubuntu-desktop, it works fine, but when I log in via xmonad, it doesn't.
[07:59] <bazhang> !info preload | A_J
[07:59] <kiichiro> yay thank you guys, found the updated one, hopefully works
[07:59] <dr_willis> Quality standard? I aseem to recall some bug in the software center about bad quality.
[08:00] <A_J> done bazhang
[08:00] <mundi> A_J: did you try minicopier? or did you stall at the .tar?
[08:00] <xgt001> can someone help me to dual boot natty and maverick?
[08:00] <bazhang> xgt001, with what? fixing grub?
[08:00] <sarit> kiichiro: good luck
[08:00] <A_J> mundi, the ultra copier came in a .deb i used that.. i'm a newb thats why
[08:01] <A_J> lemme give that a try too
[08:01] <mundi> A_J no worries...
[08:01] <MagusOTB> xgt001: In my experience, it's easier to just convince yourself that you don't need to.
[08:01] <bullgard4> Synaptic > Package List tags in the first column "S" some packages with an exclamation mark. What does this mean?
[08:01] <kiichiro> thanks, you guys are a friendly community, I know there are two friends I made on my first few days
[08:02] <dr_willis> if You get a 'package is of bad quality' when installing a .deb with the software center, you can  install the deb by hand with the dpkg, or gdebi commands.
[08:02] <ashma> hi everybody
[08:03] <ANISHSITOULA> hy aashma
[08:03] <ANISHSITOULA> any problems?
[08:03] <mundi> A_J: .tars are pretty much like .zip files. An archive  that is handled by libarchive1
[08:03] <ANISHSITOULA> hehehe
[08:03] <RPG-Master> I'm trying to set my desktop with a static ip, but the button is grayed out if you're using a wireless network. What's the issue?
[08:03] <ANISHSITOULA> ashma hi
[08:03] <bazhang> ANISHSITOULA, ashma ubuntu support question?
[08:03] <RPG-Master> *The button being "Save"
[08:03] <shristi> hello i don't know anything
[08:04] <A_J> yes mundi but most don't come with a .sh file
[08:04] <ashma>  no problem
[08:04] <RPG-Master> You can feel in all the fields, but it won't let you save...
[08:04] <hoss> Here is a odd question.  Is it possible to tether my desktop to my notebooks wireless NIC via USB cable?
[08:04] <pishguy> hi all. in this script: gksu,gksudo,xterm dose'nt work correctly:http://paste.debian.net/120313/
[08:07] <allu2> Hello, i installed gnome3 and the window "theme" i have seems rather primitive, it has only "x" button and looks like it came from 1998, i have no idea where to change it and what packages i miss
[08:07] <REK_007> how to setup a virtual ftp on ubuntu with kind of the same interface as on filezilla in windows
[08:07] <allu2> question is how i fix this
[08:07] <bazhang> allu2, contact the gnome3 ppa maintainer as its not supported here.
[08:08] <A_J> ty bazhang  and mundi.. Greets
[08:08] <mundi> A_J: Nice one bruvvah
[08:08] <bazhang> !gnome3 | allu2
[08:08] <allu2> uh i never had unity anyway :P installed from minimal.iso
[08:09] <REK_007> hey A_J
[08:09] <REK_007> ask here
[08:09] <bazhang> allu2, nonetheless not supported. contact the maintainer
[08:09] <REK_007> about your mIRC :P
[08:09] <sarit> hoss: no experience myself, but it looks like it's possible
[08:09] <mundi> I've heard it's common practise to lose unity, and reinstall gnome desktop in narwhal
[08:10] <allu2> bazhang: is mutter supported by ubuntu?
[08:10] <pishguy> hi all. in this script: gksu,gksudo,xterm dose'nt work correctly:http://paste.debian.net/120313/
[08:10] <mundi> but I don't know, still loving maverick
[08:10] <bazhang> !classic | mundi
[08:10] <mundi> thx, I'll be sure to remember that when I upgrade.
[08:11] <bazhang> allu2, your issue is with gnome3 which breaks unity among other things.
[08:11] <mundi> if I upgrade
[08:11] <allu2> bazhang: but changing window theme of mutter is mutter related problem isn't it?
[08:11] <allu2> bazhang: and i can't break unity if i don't have it :P
[08:12] <dr_willis> gnome 3 has its own theme stuff.. I recall there beeing a need to use a theme that was both gtk2 and gtk3 compatiable.
[08:12] <mundi> allu2: Are you using 11.04, Natty Narwhal?
[08:12] <arjun_> bazhang,  how do i use ultracopy, i thought it would replace the original copy handler it didnt.
[08:12] <ashma> hi
[08:12] <allu2> mundi: yes
[08:12] <mundi> allu2: then unity is your default
[08:12] <bullgard4> Synaptic > Package List tags in the first column "S" some packages with an exclamation mark. What does this mean?
[08:12] <allu2> mundi: wrong, i installed using minimal.iso with no X
[08:13] <allu2> mundi: allowing me to choose what i install, unity wasn't one of them
[08:14] <dr_willis> theme that works under both GTK2 and GTK3 like Zukitwo.  http://www.webupd8.org/2011/05/new-updated-gtk2-themes-in-webupd8.html
[08:14] <sarit> bullgard4: Synaptic > Help > Icon Legend
[08:14] <mundi> allu2: Unless I am mistaken, Gnome2 was replaced by unity in 11.04 in the base inst.
[08:14] <allu2> dr_willis: but i have installed gnome-themes packages + the more and extra packages, i don't know where to change theme
[08:15] <allu2> mundi: indeed but i i never installed ubuntu-desktop package i never had the "default" ubuntu environment
[08:15] <REK_007> does ubuntu support razer lycosa macro key feature ?
[08:16] <arjun_> REK_007,  i don't think so
[08:16] <mundi> allu2: So what default shell do you have?
[08:17] <allu2> mundi: well i had bash, then i installed X and xfdesktop, and some xfce4 packages, combined them with gnome-panel..
[08:17] <REK_007> any software on ubuntu like the teracopy .. that is which allow queuing of cut copy paste operations ?
[08:17] <arjun_> REK_007, lol
[08:17] <arjun_> thats my question
[08:17] <REK_007> haha :P
[08:17] <REK_007> aj ma boy
[08:17] <REK_007> :P
[08:17] <REK_007> you here too
[08:17] <A_J> omg
[08:18] <mundi> allu2: and you have mutter?
[08:18] <REK_007> haha arjun :)
[08:18] <allu2> mundi: so onstart i created light environment consisting of mix of packages from xfce4 and gnome, now i installed the gnome3 and i have problem with mutter window themes, as i don't know how to change them, system settings has no "appereance" option
[08:18] <A_J> :\
[08:18] <bullgard4> sarit: Thank you very much for your help. (I used Synaptic > Help > Contents > (Synaptic Package Manager Manual V0.1.2) > Main Window > Package List and could not find an explanation there.)
[08:18] <A_J> bazhang, well mate.. how do i use ultracopy, mundi  perhaps ?
[08:19] <sarit> bullgard4: yw, good luck fixing those broken packages :)
[08:19] <REK_007> is it ultracopier ?
[08:19] <mundi> A_J: unsure, I've never used ultracopier
[08:19] <A_J> yes^
[08:19] <allu2> well i guess i'm in wrong place to ask :) i don't bother you guys anymore :P
[08:20] <mundi> allu2: mutter is a gnome windows manager, for the unity shell. I am not surprised you are having troubles, it sounds like you have complicated things.
[08:21] <dr_willis> allu2,   install the proper theme changer tools and try a theme that works under both GTK2 and GTK3 like Zukitwo.  http://www.webupd8.org/2011/05/new-updated-gtk2-themes-in-webupd8.html
[08:21] <bullgard4> sarit: These packages are not broken. The exclamation mark is not surrounded by a red square but rather a gray square. This means: "Installed_(upgradable)".
[08:22] <sarit> bullgard4: oooh that makes it easy to solve than
[08:23] <bullgard4> sarit: Yes. --  Thank you again.
[08:24] <allu2> dr_willis: ok thanks :)
[08:24] <mundi> A_J: If ultracopier is anything like minicopier, then you just select the files for transfer, select a destination and hit copy.
[08:25] <A_J> mundi, like normal copy paste
[08:25] <mundi> A_J: kinda, except it is faster because of the queue function.
[08:26] <mundi> A_J: there are other functions as well
[08:26] <A_J> mundi, it doesnt launch it uses the dfault copy paste function.
[08:26] <A_J> trying minicopier now
[08:26] <sairentosutoka> hi is there a way to make a custom launcher that starts the screen saver?
[08:26] <mundi> A_J: You will need to open it as an application

[08:39] <hamnegga> why does almost nothing work in amd64 gnome
[08:39] <trijntje> Who can tell me where the .mo file for clementine is located in ubuntu? I cant find it in /usr/share/locale*
[08:39] <hamnegga> anyone got a good media player plugin to work on firefox 4 in Lucid amd64 or greater
[08:39] <Nobgul-BNC> hwo do you search the repos from the temrinal?
[08:39] <hamnegga> aptitude search or apt-get search
[08:39] <A_J> mundi, When you want to paste the basket content, just drag and drop a destination folder on the icon on the right.
[08:39] <A_J> .. This doesnt work
[08:39] <IAmError_> soreau: http://pastebin.com/e9iVP2JT
[08:39] <soreau> Nobgul-BNC: apt-cache search pkg
[08:39] <llutz_> Nobgul-BNC: apt-cache search
[08:40] <DarsVaeda> Hi, when trying to copy files from a win7 mount i get an error "permission denied" how do i overcome this?
[08:40] <Nobgul-BNC> thank you both =)
[08:40] <bullgard4> llutz_: [Natty] /var/cache/apt/archives uses the plural for "archives". Looking at its contents, there is a subdirectory called partial. Is this the reason for the plural?
[08:41] <mundi> A_J: I thought it was pretty simple. :) I don't use it unless I am backing up or moving bulk stuff.
[08:41] <soreau> IAmError_: That looks fine so maybe it's a corrupted install. Try removing gimp, and reinstalling it
[08:41] <llutz_> bullgard4: that you'd better ask the dpkg/apt devs ;)
[08:41] <IAmError_> soreau: Will do. Thanks :)
[08:41] <sarit> IAmError_: looks fine indeed, what's the output of ls -l /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0
[08:42] <IAmError_> sarit: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 2011-06-15 15:27 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0 -> libglib-2.0.so.0.2800.6
[08:42] <sarit> IAmError_: looking fine too :)
[08:45] <sarit> IAmError_: before reinstalling, check if md5sum /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0 returns 06da4d32dbcd6e83f3433ee73bb7c8c6
[08:45] <bullgard4> llutz_: Right. --  Why does apt keep more than 120 packages in /var/cache/apt/archives although I have installed all these DEB program packages on my computer? How can i automate that ubuntu will clear APT's package cache after having installed any DEB program package? I am the sole user of this computer.
[08:45] <IAmError_> sarit: okay
[08:46] <IAmError_> sarit: 06da4d32dbcd6e83f3433ee73bb7c8c6  /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0
[08:47] <Lasers> bullgard4: You can automate it by creating an alias that will run a series of commands to clean stuffs.
[08:47] <bullgard4> Lasers: Yes.
[08:48] <testadura> hi all
[08:48] <mcc> This is not specifically an ubuntu question but is more of a bash question. Let us say I have an executable file at /usr/local/i386-mingw32-4.3.0/bin/i386-mingw32-g++
[08:48] <sarit> IAmError_: glib library doesn't seem corrupt or anything, suggest following soreau 's advice and reinstalling gimp
[08:48] <mcc> I type: MINGW=/usr/local/i386-mingw32-4.3.0 PATH=$MINGW/bin:$PATH i386-mingw32-g++
[08:48] <mcc> It doesn't find it
[08:48] <mcc> Does anyone see what I did wrong there? :(
[08:48] <testadura> I would like to make nautilus automount filesystems in read-only mode, is it possible?
[08:49] <bsmith093> anyone having downloing issues with gpodder? suddenly it won't go above 10kbps per file
[08:49] <Lasers> mcc: #bash for bash question.
[08:49] <mcc> Good point, thanks
[08:49] <llutz_> bullgard4:you could use apt-get clean   to delete that stuff, it shouldn't be needed anymore after installation.
[08:50] <bullgard4> llutz_: Yes. Thank you.
[08:50] <IAmError_> sarit: still not working. Could it be a problem with kde?
[08:50] <nmvictor> Hi guys, I'm on firefox version 4 in ubuntu 11.04 but have an issue with firefox on sites like facebook and google. I cant see some text on this site, especially in input boxes. The input boxes are just white even when Im typing so I cant see the text I'm entering. Someone help me fix this.
[08:51] <sarit> IAmError_: dunno, sorry
[08:51] <IAmError_> sarit: it's fine I guess. Is there any other sort of paint program? I don't need anything other than the basics.
[08:52] <llutz_> bullgard4: you could set "APT::Clean-Installed" to prevent keeping the debs
[08:52] <sarit> IAmError_: if I run gimp from the command line, I get the same GLib-warning stuff, but gimp starts
[08:52] <IAmError_> is it just typing in gimp?
[08:52] <sarit> yes
[08:53] <bullgard4> llutz_: Where can I set this statement?
[08:53] <IAmError_> Well I'll switch over to Gnome and see if it opens.
[08:53] <sarit> IAmError_: good luck
[08:54] <llutz_> bullgard4: /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/   create a personal config
[08:55] <IAmError_> Well I'll be damned. o.O it opened right up on Ubuntu Classic
[08:56] <sarit> IAmError_: well I think that answers your question regarding kde+gimp
[08:57] <IAmError_> sarit: Yup I suppose so lol
[08:59] <kiichiro> How do I stop the X server
[09:00] <wildbat> kiichiro: sudo gdm stop
[09:00] <kiichiro> thank ya
[09:00] <foormea> hi, i'm trying ACLs. i have a directory on a ext4 partition mounted with the acl flag, to which i pass the command:             setfacl -m u:newuser:r directory/              . it returns an error:           setfacl: Option -m: Invalid argument near character 3
[09:00] <foormea> what am i doing wrong?
[09:00] <bullgard4> llutz_ As I infer from the modification times of the files in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/  the sequence of events is critical here. "99" is already issued twice. So I consider ist too complicated for me. I will rather do an occasional '~$ sudo apt-get clean'. --  Thank you.
[09:01] <llutz_> bullgard4: its just an order in which those configs were read. to make sure, yours will override all others, name it "99-zzzz-myconf
[09:01] <trijntje> Who can tell me where the .mo file for clementine is located in ubuntu? I cant find it in /usr/share/locale*
[09:03] <sarit> trijntje: locate '*.mo' | less
[09:03] <illincrux> any resources on using mysql to create a dynamic home database within ubuntu or anything relating to better home file storage practices and techniques?
[09:03] <llutz_> bullgard4: a daily cron-job performing apt-get clean would do too
[09:04] <bullgard4> llutz_: Yes.
[09:05] <trijntje> sarit, thanks for that command, but it still returns nothing related to clementine
[09:06] <sarit> trijntje: if the file exists, this should find it: sudo find / -name '*.mo'
[09:07] <trijntje> sarit, thanks, running that now
[09:08] <sarit> trijntje: will probably take a while as it scans all your filesystems :)
[09:10] <trijntje> sarit, already done, still nothing. Ill just ask in #clementine where they hid it, thanks for you help
[09:10] <sarit> trijntje: good luck
[09:14] <illincrux> Is there a fix to get a video on the web to maximize within the screen/monitor that it's maximized within?

[09:19] <milamber> illincrux: still looking . . .
[09:19] <Trond--> cool letters
[09:20] <yimf> 我是个菜鸟，，我想体验一下看看从这里都能得到什么指导//
[09:20] <illincrux> thanks milamber
[09:20] <milamber> illincrux: not sure, but googlefu came up w/ this: http://www.noobrescue.com/blog/flash-fullscreen-doesnt-work-on-ubuntu-10-10
[09:21] <illincrux> milamber: testing it...
[09:25] <illincrux> milamber: didn't work on 11.04
[09:25] <LinSkyrate> any hints on 3.0 relese?
[09:25] <avernos> hello, im using vino server to login remotely, but it seems the keyring interferes with the remote login, anyone knows how to fix this?
[09:25] <milamber> illincrux: unity or classic?
[09:25] <illincrux> milamber: unity
[09:26] <LinSkyrate> dont use 11.04... Use 10.04 no problems there at all
[09:28] <LinSkyrate> rumors says that Ulteo is supported up to 11.03
[09:28] <napster> How to install simple-ccsm ? sudo apt-get install simple-ccsm returns unmet dependencies! :( what to do?
[09:29] <milamber> bug 631381
[09:29] <Ampelbein> avernos: need more information. such as error messages.
[09:30] <avernos> Ampelbein, there isnt really an error, it seems that the problem is the password of vino is stored in the keyring. so when i attempt to connect remotely, it ask first the keyring password to allow the connection..
[09:30] <avernos> so i cant get through
[09:31] <avernos> i just deleted the password from the keyring, but i am not sure how to tell vino to store it in another place
[09:31] <dr_willis> you can se5t the keyring to use unsafe storeage so it never asks for the keyring password
[09:31] <milamber> illincrux: http://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/h4766/natty_and_flash/
[09:31] <avernos> is that inside the keyring options?
[09:31] <nonao> hi how do i get the id of window in server x?
[09:31] <milamber> illincrux: that is just more googlefu
[09:31] <dr_willis> yea. you right click on the login: item to change the keyring password i recall
[09:32] <illincrux> milamber: thanks!
[09:32] <avernos> ok, gonna try, thanks dr_willis
[09:32] <Ampelbein> avernos: is that on 10.04? then you can use gconf-editor to store the vino password in /desktop/gnome/remote_access
[09:32] <nonao> hi how do i get the id of window in x window?
[09:33] <Ampelbein> avernos: the base64 encoded password that is, not plaintext.
[09:33] <sayz> hi guys: how to install mysql-workbench from repo?
[09:33] <llutz_> nonao: xwininfo
[09:34] <avernos> Ampelbein, yea :). ok, thats what i found as a solution on the web, thats what i was trying to do. i wonder if using unsafe password in the keyring will leave it plaintext
[09:34] <milamber> sayz: i don't think it is in the repos, you can download direct from their site
[09:35] <nmvictor> me
[09:35] <nmvictor> me
[09:35] <nmvictor> me
[09:35] <Ampelbein> avernos: you shouldn't set gnome-keyring to unsafe storage.
[09:35] <sayz> milamber: i know it but i dont would like
[09:36] <Ampelbein> avernos: just use gconf-editor (without sudo!) and put in the result of 'echo -n "your-password" | base64'
[09:36] <sayz> milamber: can i  install from repo?
[09:36] <napster> What is an unmet dependency and how does it occur for a guy like who uses only the default repos, not even a ppa! :(
[09:37] <sayz> milamber: by source.list
[09:37] <wols> napster: show ups the apt-get command you ran that caused it
[09:37] <milamber> sayz: i sec
[09:37] <wols> napster: incl. output. in a pastebin
[09:38] <napster> wols: will do in a sec!
[09:38] <fredl> hi I can't see my Android phone as a USB storage device
[09:39] <milamber> sayz: ubuntu docs say download it from site
[09:39] <fredl> I checked the automount setting with gconf-editor and it's on
[09:39] <milamber> sayz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MySqlWorkBench
[09:39] <sayz> really :-(
[09:39] <fredl> but I don't see the phone with fdisk -l
[09:39] <sayz> milamber: ok, thanks a lot...
[09:39] <wols> fredl: check kernel log
[09:40] <fredl> wols - it shows in dmesg that the device registered
[09:40] <milamber> fredl: what does lsusb show?
[09:40] <napster> wols: http://pastebin.com/ULTdCRbk
[09:40] <fredl> milamber, doesn't show the phone
[09:41] <milamber> fredl: when you plug the phone in, does your phone give you options?
[09:41] <Ampelbein> napster: please paste the output of 'apt-cache policy python-compizconfig' and 'apt-cache policy compizconfig-settings-manager'
[09:41] <avernos> Ampelbein, im looking for vino stuff in gconf-editor, should i set that somewhere else? in keyring config inside gconf-editor?
[09:42] <Ampelbein> avernos: in /desktop/gnome/remote-access
[09:42] <fredl> milamber, it only asks 'turn on USB storage' so I click on that and it connects
[09:42] <avernos> :)
[09:42] <nmvictor> =):>=D ;D :P=) :):>=)=):) ;D :D :D :) :D =):) :>:P:>=):P:) :>:D ;D =) :P:P=D :) :):> =D:D:P :):D=D :D=)=D ;D :) =) =D ;D :):P =D ;D ;D =D ;D=D:D:D;D;D :) :> :P:P:D =D

[09:42] <fredl> milamber, wols: turning on USB storage on the phone does not generate anything in dmesg though
[09:43] <milamber> fredl: what is the hardware?
[09:43] <fredl> milamber, HTC Magic
[09:44] <dasupergamer> hi all
[09:44] <wols> napster: just list the packages it complains about in your install line as well
[09:44] <sayz> dasupergamer: hi
[09:44] <milamber> fredl: i haven't had an android phone in a bit, but is there an option to specifically mount the phone (on the phone itself) (from curtain)?
[09:44] <napster> wols: Those packages are installed already
[09:44] <Ampelbein> napster: please paste the output of 'apt-cache policy python-compizconfig' and 'apt-cache policy compizconfig-settings-manager'
[09:45] <napster> Ampelbein: http://pastebin.com/iNNgVwP1
[09:47] <illincrux> i have a file in my downloads that I'd like to move to usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins, how might I go about doing that the correct way?
[09:48] <napster> Ampelbein: Any chance?
[09:49] <cloventt> illincrux: an easy way is to go to a console and type "gksudo nautilus" no quotes. then copy the file in that window
[09:49] <illincrux> thanks cloventt
[09:49] <avernos> Ampelbein, keyring is still requesting access to activate vino. how can i disable it?
[09:49] <Ampelbein> napster: that's... interesting.
[09:49] <robin0800> illincrux, easy still is to install nautilus-gksu
[09:50] <napster> Ampelbein: yeah!
[09:50] <FireStorms> Hey!
[09:50] <Ampelbein> avernos: is your base64 encoded password written in ~/..gconf/desktop/gnome/remote_access/%gconf.xml ?
[09:50] <avernos> yes
[09:51] <FireStorms> Wondering, if I access somebody's Ubuntu box through SSH at their root director....... will they have access to my files if they do do know my password???
[09:51] <Ampelbein> avernos: and you restarted the server?
[09:51] <FireStorms> do not*
[09:51] <mrpinky> Hey, I just run 11.04 from livecd, and the GUI looks exactly like 10.04. I was expecting the new "unity" failGUI. what gives?
[09:51] <Ampelbein> napster: what happens if you download the deb manually and use 'sudo dpkg -i *.deb'?
[09:51] <avernos> Ampelbein, i did. and vino is still in the keyring. perhaps i should delete it from there?
[09:52] <napster> Ampelbein: Let me try
[09:52] <Ampelbein> avernos: yes, that should you do ;-) sorry I didn't say.
[09:52] <wols> FireStorms: rephrase. this time with more sense.
[09:52] <milamber> mrpinky: if your hardware isn't up to snuff it defaults to classic
[09:52] <avernos> Ampelbein, ;)
[09:52] <napster> Ampelbein: But it may break the package tree?
[09:52] <mrpinky> milamber, nice, maybe i can use 11.04 after all :)
[09:52] <Ampelbein> napster: no.
[09:53] <cloventt> mrpinky: if you desperately want to try out unity install unity-2d
[09:53] <wols> napster: no. dpkg will not install it then
[09:53] <Ampelbein> napster: dpkg is what apt-get uses to install packages.
[09:53] <mrpinky> i desperately want to avoid unity :)
[09:53] <cloventt> mrpinky: a wise choice
[09:54] <FireStorms> wols, what part didn't make sense?
[09:54] <mrpinky> ok i'm off to install 11.04, see you later guys
[09:54] <FireStorms> Maybe I can dumb it down a little :)
[09:54] <napster> Ampelbein: wols But I think its a bug. When a normal user try to install a software via synaptic, and gets a dumb error!
[09:54] <avernos> Ampelbein, got it working, thanks a bunch!! :D
[09:55] <wols> FireStorms: sarcasm is not a good way when you want answers.
[09:55] <wols> napster: probably. you can try aptitude, it might tell you why it gives that error
[09:55] <Peddy> how can I change the default exit button icons for unity panel? top left: http://i.imgur.com/psnOo.png
[09:56] <FireStorms> wols ok wols for you I'll dumb it down...  If I access somebody's Linux box through SSH (/) will they in turn be able to access some files on my system if they do not know password?
[09:56] <wols> ActionParsnip: configure your irc client properly please
[09:56] <wols> FireStorms: calling people "dumb" when you want answers from them is utterly moronic. but you still did it. makes one wonder. have a nice day
[09:56] <napster> wols: Can you give me the command for it
[09:56]  * napster is a n00b ;)
[09:57] <wols> napster: aptitude install <stuff>
[09:57] <Ampelbein> FireStorms: ssh gives remote shell access, not access to filesystems.
[09:57] <FireStorms> wols, yeah well, I know people here aren't dumb, I just don't like you attitude.
[09:57] <wols> FireStorms: stop digging
[09:57] <wols> Ampelbein: ever heard of sftp? sshfs?
[09:57] <nonao> hi say if I start a program such as firefox, how do i get the id of this window?
[09:58] <nonao> using bash...
[09:58] <Ampelbein> wols: he asked for ssh, not sftp or sshfs.
[09:58] <Gemini> guy,why when i start that update thing on ubuntu my laptop freezes?
[09:58] <wols> Ampelbein: pray tell what is the difference? *g*
[09:58] <wols> Ampelbein: tho you missed the server/client distinction
[09:59] <wols> nonao: if you know the name of the executable, you can get the PID with commands like ps, pidof, top, etc
[09:59] <Ampelbein> wols: what client/server distinction?
[09:59] <wols> Ampelbein: read his question again. this time carefully
[10:00] <Ampelbein> wols: I still don't get what I missed.
[10:00] <fredl> milamber, sorry, I got distracted and tried hooking up the phone to another Debian box, there it seems to work
[10:01] <naerey> anyone using BackInTime? am having a little problem
[10:02] <napster> wols: http://pastebin.com/mfB2k1a5
[10:03] <wols> napster: now you know why it didn't work
[10:03] <idefix> how can you determine someone's IP-address from his MSN messages?
[10:03] <Corey> idefix: You don't.
[10:03] <idefix> nooooo
[10:03] <idefix> it must be possible!
[10:03] <nonao> wols because I am trying to get the printscreen of a firefox screen.... so what u think how i should do it?
[10:03] <Corey> idefix: Okay, you have law enforcement subpoena MSN.
[10:03] <napster> wols: So, what to do now!
[10:03] <wols> nonao: run scrot?
[10:04] <wols> napster: you cannot install ccsm, that's all
[10:04] <udonnome> guys,i downloaded a driver for wifi,how can i install it,its .gz ?
[10:04] <idefix> Corey that's the stuff the FBI uses?
[10:04] <Corey> idefix: What's your actual question
[10:04] <idefix> like I said
[10:04] <wols> udonnome: what wlan chip is it again?
[10:04] <Ampelbein> napster: oh, right. I forgot. simple-ccsm is incompatible with newer compiz, bug 738168
[10:04] <udonnome> broadcom
[10:04] <napster> wols: thanks for your time :(
[10:05] <napster> okey
[10:05] <thegladiator> I am dependent on gnome to connect to wifi net , I installed wicd but it doesn't connect to wifi ..saying Bad Password but I am pretty sure thats the password ,and I tried all means to connect
[10:05] <cloventt> idefix: He was joking. This channel is not for the discussion of illegal activites.
[10:05] <wols> udonnome: there is no reason to get a tarball for a driver for it
[10:05] <udonnome> wols, in the description of the driver it says that it should work for me
[10:05] <Lorans> hi , i would to delete directory but it isnt empty
[10:05] <idefix> but the FBI is legal!
[10:05] <Lorans> how can i do it
[10:05] <Ampelbein> Lorans: rm -r
[10:05] <Corey> Lorans: man rm, pay attention to -r
[10:05] <xskydevilx> How would I change the command of let's say "Nautilus" to open in terminal from the shortcut?
[10:06] <udonnome> wols, ok,what do i need,to make my wifi work?
[10:06] <Lorans> i try
[10:06] <wols> Lorans: rm -rf <directory>. be very very careful with this command
[10:06] <Lorans> thanks
[10:06] <felipeo> hello, i was playing around with gconf, and now i don't have the clock indicator. how can i bring it back?
[10:06] <wols> !broadcom > udonnome
[10:06] <thegladiator> i need to switch to someting lighther like fluxbox , but for some reason the wifi is not coming up ...even if I type gnome-panel in the fluxbox terminal I cant see the wiress applet - meaning somehow the wifi is not detecting in Fluxbox / open box etc
[10:06] <Ampelbein> wols: don't use -f if you don't need it.
[10:06] <Corey> idefix: MSN can see both sides, but users can't.  There's no way for you to get the IP address of the remote side unless they communicate it to you.
[10:06] <udonnome> wols, ive tryed this ,but cant make it work
[10:06] <cloventt> idefix: Regardless why are you asking the ubuntu support channel?
[10:07] <wols> udonnome: if you can't make it work, compiling your own drivers it totally outside your scope
[10:07] <idefix> I don't know where else to ask
[10:07] <idefix> you're the guys with knowledge
[10:07] <idefix> hey cool, my sentences lined up
[10:07] <janhaj> hello.. I have a ntb with Sandy Bridge and I need hw encoding of h264. I found this http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libva/commit/?id=0b8b97649ced7336309864135ff402d1ee85a8c1 , but I have no idea, how to install it. Can you help me? Thanks..
[10:07] <wols> idefix: thank you, thank you! you made my day!
[10:07] <udonnome> am newb at this dont know much about that stuff
[10:07] <oCean> idefix: this channel is for ubuntu support ony
[10:07] <Lorans> i type this command but i says to me " cant remove"
[10:07] <Lorans> ???
[10:08] <CodenameStrike> well in the first place the protocols used in IM is out of our scope for the most part
[10:08] <felipeo> lorans, you may not have permission to remove it. what's the error message you get
[10:09] <Lorans> felipo,  rm: cannot remove `12/12/12/Windows/winsxs/x86_microsoft-windows-v..driver-tvdigital-ks_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7600.16385_none_c294ba07ec4e5df8/bdaplgin.ax': Too many levels of symbolic links
[10:10] <idefix> wols, you're welcome
[10:12] <felipeo> lorans, you probably have a  symlink loop
[10:13] <Guest25691> i reject the notion that you give a damn what i think and therefore don't expect me to follow the service.
[10:13] <Lorans> what you mean? plz can you understand me this? Felipeo
[10:14] <Ampelbein> Lorans: change to the directory and rm the file manually first. 'man 2 path_resolution' has an explanation.
[10:14] <felipeo> lorans, you have a link here/foo pointing to /somewhere/else/bar which is also a symlink and points back to here/foo
[10:15] <naerey> .. shouldn't ls -al show me if it's file, or symlink?
[10:15] <Lorans> oh , but now how can i remve this directory
[10:15] <Lorans> remove
[10:15] <tarski> anyone know why when i log into my netbook using ssh it always prompts "failed to connect to x server" did i mess up .ssh or something?
[10:16] <Ampelbein> Lorans: have you seen my reply? change to the directory and remove the file manually.
[10:17] <biopyte> Hi, is there another powerful textmode only web browser? I know  elinks but maybe there are alternatives, e.g. using tabs?
[10:17] <Lorans> Ampelbein, I traied to remove it manually but the error still now
[10:18] <Lorans> Ampelbein, i cnat remove it manually
[10:18] <Ampelbein> Lorans: can you pastebin the complete command and error?
[10:18] <udonnome> wols, where i can find system?
[10:19] <thegladiator> where can I modify my x manager setting
[10:19] <Lorans> what you mean with "pastebin"?
[10:19] <Ampelbein> !pastebin | Lorans
[10:19] <dr_willis> tarski,  perhaps you got x forwarding enabled by default
[10:20] <foormea> mh, i want to set up nfs shares on my network, i see there's a way of setting shares by mounting them with --bind in /export, has this way replaced /etc/exports ?
[10:20] <udonnome> can anyone tell me how to find this "System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager" ?Please
[10:20] <tarski> dr_willis: i think that's it, im checking etc/ssh/sshd_config now ...
[10:20] <robin0800> thegladiator, in a xorg.conf file but you may have to create it
[10:21] <dr_willis> udonnome,  ru n 'synaptic' its the same thing
[10:21] <udonnome> how to run it?
[10:21] <dr_willis> type it in a terminal
[10:21] <foormea> /join #gentoofr
[10:21] <thegladiator> Basically I need to have the nm-applet working in fluxbox , or any other non gnome window mangers
[10:21] <foormea> oops :)
[10:22] <udonnome> sudo run synaptic ?
[10:22] <thegladiator> wicd doesnt connect to net from Fluxbox or openbox ...
[10:22] <dr_willis> udonnome,  gksudo synaptic
[10:22] <janhaj> hello.. I have a ntb with Sandy Bridge and I need hw encoding of h264. I found this http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libva/commit/?id=0b8b97649ced7336309864135ff402d1ee85a8c1 , but I have no idea, how to install it. Can you help me? Thanks..
[10:22] <sarit> foormea: /etc/exports should work fine, if /export is already exported, you can indeed bind your device to /export to export it
[10:23] <robin0800> udonnome, no not sudo for gui programs gksu
[10:23] <foormea> sarit: oh that's just for convenience, i understand
[10:23] <Lorans> Ampelbein, http://paste.ubuntu.com/629270/
[10:23] <dr_willis> thegladiator,  thats weird . itshuld work from any windowmanager
[10:23] <udonnome> ok,ive maneged to run it,thank you
[10:23] <thegladiator> actually its weird but I dont know why , even an e17 distro on CD works fine ...but not when I switch to flux box
[10:23] <Ampelbein> Lorans: change the directory first.
[10:23] <Ampelbein> Lorans: with 'cd'
[10:23] <taraduffy> I have a problem with Update Manager - where can I paste the long error report?
[10:24] <dr_willis> thers some indicator applets to get the old fashioned gnome menuis in Unity - bookmarked them at   http://delicious.com/dr_willis
[10:24] <sarit> !pastebin | taraduffy
[10:24]  * naerey needs some rsync help
[10:24] <Lorans> Ampelbein, change it to where?
[10:25] <Ampelbein> Lorans: to the directory where the file is.
[10:25] <Ampelbein> Lorans: cd '12/12/12/Windows/System32/DriverStore/FileRepository/mdmcxav3.inf_x86_neutral_3c9275be906b01dd'
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> wols: it is? How do you mean?
[10:25] <felipeo> anyone use a clock indicator on unity other than the default?
[10:25] <Lorans> Ampelbein, okay ..done
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> wols: it's not changed from yesterday and you didn't say anything then...
[10:26] <Ampelbein> Lorans: now remove the files in there
[10:27] <felipeo> Lorans: without using -r this time ;)
[10:27] <Lorans> Ampelbein..plz the command?
[10:27] <felipeo> lorans, rm *
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> Lorans: don't run felipeo's command
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> felipeo: what is the point?
[10:28] <felipeo> removing the parent dir
[10:28] <quiescens> ActionParsnip: they are in fact, actually asking about removing files, for real
[10:28] <quiescens> lol
[10:28] <Ampelbein> ActionParsnip: what else do you suggest to remove all files in a directory?
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> quiescens: I'm always VERY wary of rm with asterisks
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> Ampelbein: do you want the folder keeping?
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> felipeo: sorry dude
[10:29] <felipeo> lol true. lorans, make sure you have used cd like ampelbein said
[10:29] <sarit> just support Loran does that in / :)
[10:29] <felipeo> actionparsnip, np
[10:29] <Ampelbein> ActionParsnip: the point is a there is a symlink-loop, so you can't use 'rm -r' in the parent.
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> Ampelbein: you can use rmdir  or rm -r fodler
[10:29] <systemik> exit
[10:29] <Ampelbein> ActionParsnip: please, read the backlog first, I'm not the one having the problem.
[10:29] <felipeo> actionparsnip, problem is lorans has a symlink loop
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> Ampelbein: hmm, interesting
[10:30] <ActionParsnip> delete both in the same comamnd maybe?
[10:30] <Fudge> anyone use hamachi, i try hamachi login and i just get failed to login
[10:31] <ActionParsnip> http://superuser.com/questions/103862/how-can-i-break-a-symbolic-link-loop
[10:32] <Ampelbein> ActionParsnip: for files you can even delete them one at a time.
[10:33] <Ampelbein> ActionParsnip: the problem only occurs with recursive operations (i.e. rm -r).
[10:34] <Ampelbein> ActionParsnip: man 2 path_resolution has some details.
[10:34] <ActionParsnip> Ampelbein: rmdir may do it
[10:34] <wildbat1> WOW ~ i just have a system crash T.R
[10:35] <Ampelbein> ActionParsnip: rmdir is used to delete empty directories
[10:35] <quiescens> the reason i'm not trying to answer is that it usually doesn't matter either way, rm should default to working on the link itself, not on whatever is being linked to, so symlinks shouldn't affect it unless it doesn't realike its a link etc
[10:35] <Ampelbein> quiescens: rm -r will follow directory symlinks though.
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> is there a switch for rm to ignore symlinks
[10:36] <quiescens> Ampelbein: no, it should remove the link, because otherwise it would remove files inside the directory that the link points to, which would not be correct
[10:36] <d6chung> Is there a shortcut key or some gesture I may have triggered that keeps the Unity "dock
[10:36] <d6chung> " stay on top?
[10:36] <felipeo> quiescens, that behavior is more like a hardlink
[10:36] <d6chung> Stupid enter key...
[10:36] <quiescens> Lorans: can I ask something that may be of interest, what kind of filesystem is this directory in? since its in /media
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> d6chung: do you mean it's not hiding?
[10:37] <d6chung> ActionParsnip: Yes.
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> d6http://maketecheasier.com/autohide-unity-launcher-in-ubuntu-natty/2011/04/20
[10:38] <Ledder> Hi fellows
[10:38] <Ledder> i'm looking for the appropriate cahnnel for some webcam hints
[10:38] <ActionParsnip> Ampelbein: couldn't you create a folder and copy it on top of one of the links?
[10:38] <Lorans> quiescens, i have  OS ubuntu and Win 7. filesystem in this directory is Windows
[10:38] <felipeo> d6chung: i had the same problem yesterday (with auto-hide enabled). i don't know if it's a bug. in any case, logging out and in fixed it
[10:38] <Lorans> Quiescens, Still now i cannot delete this directory
[10:38] <quiescens> annd there we go
[10:39] <quiescens> we're not talking about linux symlinks
[10:39] <ActionParsnip> Ledder: hints in what way?
[10:39] <d6chung> ActionParsnip: That didn't seem to fix it...
[10:39] <quiescens> they're trying to delete stuff off a windows 7 drive
[10:39] <d6chung> felipeo: Yes, that has been my workaround at the moment.
[10:39] <Ledder> i kicked windows off my laptop and put xubuntu on it
[10:39] <Ledder> no the webcam doesnt work
[10:39] <felipeo> d6chung, it might be a bug
[10:39] <d6chung> I even tried "unity --replace" but the behaviour remains.
[10:40] <d6chung> felipeo: Well, I feel better that I'm not the only one...
[10:40] <felipeo> d6chung, as do I!
[10:40] <Abhijit> hi
[10:41] <Abhijit> i got one movie with dual audio. but i dont know how to change the language? i have vlc etc help
[10:41] <dr_willis> its in the vlc menus
[10:42] <Ledder> so ideas where to find a appropriate driver for a hp pavillon laptop?
[10:42] <ActionParsnip> d6chung: try setting the hide option to someting else, then back to autohide. I use unity2d which has a nice gconf controllable method :)
[10:42] <ActionParsnip> Abhijit: dos it happen in all players?
[10:42] <d6chung> ActionParsnip: That's what I tried earlier...
[10:42] <Abhijit> dr_willis, oh yes i found it!!! :-)
[10:42] <ActionParsnip> Ledder: does it work in cheese?
[10:42] <Ledder> nope
[10:42] <Abhijit> ActionParsnip, no basically i was not aware of the thing how to do it. so just now dr_willis tole me. thank you both! :-)
[10:43] <Ledder> tried that first
[10:43] <Ledder> cheese crashes
[10:43] <ActionParsnip> Ledder: ok then run:  lsusb   and use the 8 character hex ID to find guides
[10:43] <Ledder> or hanges up
[10:43] <d6chung> ActionParsnip: Interestingly, when I set it to "Never", the windows redraw to force themselves outside the launcher. Setting it back restores the windows and they assume the launcher will hide itself.
[10:43] <Ledder> 05ca:1870
[10:44] <ActionParsnip> Ledder: ok use that in searches
[10:44] <d6chung> Well, "never" is a decent workaround until I choose to log back out.
[10:44] <quiescens> Lorans: to be honest, the safest way, if it is a possibility for you is to use a windows system to delete the stuff in question
[10:44] <Ledder> yes but to search what exactly?
[10:45] <quiescens> Lorans: i am not entirely sure how reliable linux support for ntfs symbolic links is
[10:45] <ActionParsnip> Ledder: just that, you can add 'ubuntu' if you want. Have you not used websearches before?
[10:45] <Ledder> let's say i'm realtively new to ubuntu
[10:46] <ActionParsnip> Ledder: you can websearch for stuff in any OS.
[10:46] <sarit> Ledder: 05ca:1870 points to a Ricoh:Webcam 1000, you can use that in your searches
[10:46] <Ledder> yes i found out where it points
[10:46] <ActionParsnip> Ledder: why not just try stuff, and see what happens. You may suprise yourself
[10:47] <Ledder> i already managed to mess up my first ubuntu install by trying
[10:47] <Ledder> so i prefere asking ^^
[10:47] <ActionParsnip> Ledder: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/120434
[10:47] <Lorans> thanks all have a nice time
[10:48] <ActionParsnip> Ledder: there's a PPA for it, all I did was search...
[10:49] <Ledder> look i found already a driver and tryed to put it on
[10:49] <Ledder> without succes
[10:49] <udonnome> damn .....
[10:49] <Ledder> i finish by errors
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> Ledder: did you use that ppa?
[10:49] <Ledder> i'm looking at it
[10:49] <Ledder> hang on a sec

[10:53] <BlouBlou> ashmew2: What about K3B?
[10:53] <ashmew2> BlouBlou, havent given that a try yet , any application that is gnome-native ? or maybe independent ? like Nero Linux's free port or something?
[10:54] <udonnome> so can anyone help me step by step to make my wifi come alive?
[10:54] <ashmew2> ActionParsnip, Yeah , i know the drill , the ISO isnt bad , have used usb install till now using the same ISO but this time installing via USB isnt an option
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> ashmew2: could also try xfburn, doesn't pull in a tonne of Qt deps like k3b
[10:54] <ashmew2> ActionParsnip, Ok, ill look into xfburn.
[10:54] <ashmew2> BlouBlou, ill try out k3b, Thanks
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> ashmew2: burn as slowly as possible too
[10:54] <ashmew2> ActionParsnip, yeah 10x all the way

[10:56] <aureianimus> so, i installed python 2.5 from source and now python gives python2.5, but i want it to default to 2.7
[10:56] <aureianimus> where is the file for that?
[10:57] <dr_willis> theres the alternatives system that may be used fior that aureianimus
[10:57] <tilerendering> hm
[10:57] <dr_willis> !alternatives
[10:58] <tilerendering> can somebody briefly help me out with a file permissions problem, without pointing me to a whole file permissions tutorial ?
[10:58] <nonao> if I start a program in terminal, say firefox "http://www.example.com" how do i get the window id of it?
[10:59] <Lasers> nonao: Something like "pidof firefox" -- I imagine.
[11:00] <Lasers> Window ID? I assume that's what you mean by that? (Process ID?)
[11:00] <dr_willis> theres some xinfo tool that shows that stuff i recall
[11:01] <dragonkeeper> should just be firefox "http:\\www.website.com"  | nonao
[11:01] <dr_willis> why do you need the windoass id?
[11:01] <aureianimus> dr_willis, i don't think python is in there
[11:02] <dr_willis> aureianimus,  how did you install the 2.5 python?
[11:02] <aureianimus> from source
[11:02] <dr_willis> thats your pboblem then.. it overwrote the existing 2.7 binaaries..
[11:02] <dr_willis> remove the 2.5 and reinstall 2.7
[11:03] <aureianimus> dr_willis, do you happen to know how to remove 2.5?
[11:04] <dr_willis> use the source..  make uninstall
[11:04] <taraduffy> Hello, I have a problem with Update Manager: please see: http://paste.ubuntu.com/629272/

[11:07] <aureianimus> make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'.  Stop.
[11:07] <aureianimus> dr_willis, could it work if i just reinstalled 2.7?
[11:07] <dr_willis> try it and see aureianimus
[11:08] <fossala> Is there a way to install a package for just one user (adobe flash to be exact)?
[11:09] <d9500> fossala, yes. adobe's website has the libflashplayer.so file in a compressed tarball
[11:10] <d9500> just download the version for your architecture (x86 or x64...google "adobe flash square" if you need x64,) extract the tarball, and copy the libflashplugin.so file to /homeyyouruser/.mozilla/plugins. you will probably have to create the .plugins folder first
[11:10] <fossala> Where would I put it.
[11:11] <d9500> see above
[11:11] <d9500> /home/youruser/.mozilla/plugins, to be exact.
[11:11] <fossala> thankyou.
[11:11] <d9500> had to rewrite it b/c there were typos the first time around. just be sure to use the second one i wrote, not the initial one
[11:12] <taraduffy> http://paste.ubuntu.com/629272/   Can anyone help with this please?

[11:14] <Kateon> log in as root, sudo -s, su

[11:15] <tweasy> Hello everyone, good morning! PROBLEM: Just installed 7zip and it doesn't appear on the app menu! I have 4 ".rar" parts making one file, and I wanted to unpack it! Any tips?
[11:15] <taraduffy> wols: I am stuck on 97% [19 Packages 46.8 kB/58.7 kB 79%]
[11:16] <dr_willis> 7zip has a rar plugin you need
[11:16] <dr_willis> or use rar/unrar binary
[11:16]  * swiftkick bashes skull against desk
[11:16] <dr_willis> 7zip has no GUI in linux iuts a cli tool
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> dr_willis: doesn't fileroller use it if it's installed?
[11:16] <tweasy> dr_willis: hello, could you please explain that a little easier?
[11:16] <dr_willis> !rar
[11:17] <tweasy> on console?
[11:17] <dr_willis> install unrar..   unrar e foo.rar
[11:17] <ActionParsnip> or install unp and use it for everything
[11:17] <tweasy> !unp
[11:17] <dr_willis> you still need the rar/unar binaries for unp :)
[11:17] <tweasy> Hmm

[11:18] <ilangeeran> hello
[11:18] <ilangeeran> please help me
[11:18] <oCean> taraduffy: run sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf to remove all listfiles, then sudo apt-get update to rebuild those files
[11:18] <aureianimus> dr_willis, installing 2.7 from source with "make install"  and 2.5 from source with "make altinstall" does the trick, thank you for your time
[11:18] <oCean> ilangeeran: first ask a question
[11:19] <tweasy> dr_willis: cheers ;)
[11:19] <ilangeeran> how to upgrade my ubuntu?
[11:19] <oCean> !upgrade | ilangeeran
[11:19] <fossala> d9500: Thanks it worked.
[11:20] <taraduffy> oCean: thank you: trying that. .
[11:21] <d9500> fossala, you're welcome.
[11:21] <coderr> is inotifywait not supposed to work on files in /sys (i.e. for monitoring of display brightness) or is something going wrong when it doesn't (no events are reported at all)
[11:21] <tweasy> dr_willis: now, with unp and the packages installed how do I go about "un-raring" it?
[11:22] <ilangeeran> my system shows that an upgrade is  available.but when i tried to upgrade,it cannot reach all the repositories.i think that the weblink that is added to the software sources is no long available.please helpp me with a remedy.
[11:23] <oCean> ilangeeran: what version are you currently using?
[11:23] <ilangeeran> its 8.10
[11:23] <ActionParsnip> !eol
[11:23] <BlouBlou> ilangeeran: ^
[11:23] <ActionParsnip> ilangeeran: should show how to upgrade Intrepid
[11:24] <ilangeeran> yes
[11:24] <ActionParsnip> ilangeeran: it'll take a long while to get to a supported release. I'd just go with a clean install
[11:25] <tweasy> Problem: I have a RAR file in 4 parts (part1, 2, 3 and 4) and after extraction the file is nowhere to be seen.
[11:25] <ilangeeran> i am having a 9.04  cd.if i use it for installation,can i get all my files retrieved.
[11:25] <oCean> ilangeeran: 9.04 is end-of-life also
[11:25] <taraduffy> oCean: thank you - that worked:-)
[11:25] <oCean> taraduffy: yay
[11:26] <ortsvorsteher> ilangeeran, may you backup your needed files, i think mostly what you have in your home directory, and do a fresh install of an actual version.
[11:26] <taraduffy> oCean: thank you again and see you:-)
[11:26] <ilangeeran> then i going out of ubuntu and going to use red hat.what do you think about it?
[11:26] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: you should just extract the first one, if you make your pwd the same as the files you extract, it will extract to the same folder
[11:26] <oCean> ilangeeran: sure, it's up to you
[11:26] <ActionParsnip> ilangeeran: use what you wish
[11:27] <salvatore_> hi all
[11:27] <idefix> wouldn't it be cool if we could live forever?
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> idefix: thats offtopic her
[11:27] <oCean> idefix: wrong channel
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> *here
[11:27] <ilangeeran> ok.i am from india.where u r from?
[11:27] <salvatore_> I've a problem with wireless connection, can someone help me please?
[11:27] <oCean> ilangeeran: use #ubuntu-offtopic for chat
[11:27] <tweasy> ActionParsnip: I extracted the first one and it came out like this: "part1, part1 (1), part1 (2), part1 (3)"
[11:27] <ilangeeran> how?
[11:28] <neure> why is the libX11.so symlink missing in Ubuntu unless you install the -dev package?
[11:28] <^wat^> ubuntu
[11:28] <tweasy> ActionParsnip: I mean, I extracted them all and they came like that
[11:28] <oCean> ilangeeran: type /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:28] <dr_willis> tweasy,  you would unrar e foo.rar   or unp foo.rar
[11:28] <dr_willis> tweasy,  you DONT extract them all.. just the first
[11:28] <salvatore_> ok.. I try to ask the question..
[11:28] <tweasy> dr_willies how do I go about unp foo.rar?
[11:29] <tweasy> also, I did try extracting only one! dr_willis
[11:29] <dr_willis> tweasy,  you cd to where the file si at and use the proper command.
[11:29] <tweasy> dr_willis, will try
[11:29] <neure> is there a mailing list where i could ask about ubuntu x11?
[11:29] <dr_willis> if you got rar/unrar installed you can try double clicking on the rar also
[11:29] <^wat^> piss rar
[11:29] <tweasy> what is the shortcut for the terminal? tired of going to apps
[11:30] <dr_willis> pin it to the panel
[11:30] <tweasy> no shortcut then
[11:30] <salvatore_> I installed ubuntu 11.04, and I've an Atheros AR9285, that ubuntu doesn't support.. then I installed linux-backports-extensions and compat-wireless driver
[11:30] <digitalfiz> hey guys small problem
[11:30] <naerey> format.
[11:30] <salvatore_> now it work, but only with an external software like WICD
[11:31] <salvatore_> how I can use this driver from gnome?
[11:31] <ActionParsnip> salvatore_: why is wicd 'external'?
[11:31] <tweasy> How do I display every file in the folder @ the terminal?=
[11:31] <digitalfiz> im trying to upgrade from 10.10 to 11 but when i do "do-release-upgrade -d" it says no new releases found
[11:31] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: ls
[11:31] <d9500> tweasy, ls -a
[11:31] <tweasy> cheers
[11:31] <d9500> you have to add the -a to show hidden files.
[11:31] <szal> ls -lA
[11:31] <salvatore_> because when i connect through wicd
[11:32] <oCean> salvatore_: I'm using  AR928X running out of the box
[11:32] <cheip> digitalfiz, try "update-manager -d"
[11:32] <salvatore_> the system does not recognize that i'm connected
[11:32] <ActionParsnip> salvatore_: doesn't make it external though, both networ manager and wicd are in the repos
[11:32] <salvatore_> and I cannot use programs like the chat client
[11:32] <digitalfiz> cheip this is ubuntu server no gui
[11:32] <oCean> salvatore_: ath9k module works just fine
[11:32] <Ampelbein> digitalfiz: just 'do-release-upgrade' should do, '-d' is only for development releases
[11:32] <ActionParsnip> salvatore_: can you ping <IP_ADDRESS> when you get connected?
[11:32] <tweasy> How do you paste the file you want in order to apply the command unp foo.rar?
[11:33] <tweasy> file's name*
[11:33] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: that's it
[11:33] <salvatore_> now i'm connected with wireless, hence it work..
[11:33] <dr_willis> type it in or use the tab key
[11:33] <dr_willis> !tab
[11:33] <tweasy> cheers, will try
[11:33] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: one command for most compression files rather than remembering syntax (not hard but the tool makes life easier)
[11:33] <digitalfiz> Ampelbein still says no knew release found :/ is there a repo i got to add?
[11:33] <salvatore_> but i wish that in the bar at the top of the screen, show that i'm connected
[11:33] <salvatore_> (sorry for my english)
[11:34] <ActionParsnip> salvatore_: wicd should show a panel icon. Did you reboot after installing wicd?
[11:34] <salvatore_> yes
[11:34] <salvatore_> i can't see that icon
[11:34] <salvatore_> when i reboot i must execute: rfkill unblock all
[11:35] <salvatore_> because each time that I restart, the device seems blocked
[11:35] <tweasy> unp foo.rar command not found, any ideas?
[11:35] <salvatore_> after this I must execute wicd and connect to a wireless network
[11:35] <dr_willis> tweasy,  use the actual file name.. and  you did instaakk unp first?
[11:36] <salvatore_> but in gnome still appear: wireless disabled
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> salvatore_: if you press ALT+F2 and type wicd   then wait, do you see suggestions? Do they make it appear?
[11:36] <Ampelbein> digitalfiz: could be a network issue, changelogs.ubuntu.com (which do-release-upgrade queries) seems to be down.
[11:36] <tweasy> dr_willis, of course I did.
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> salvatore_: as long as wicd says you are connected, that's fine
[11:36] <dr_willis> try in a new terminal window i guess..
[11:36] <^wat^> in terminal
[11:36] <salvatore_> appears: wicd, wicd-client and wicd-gtk
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> salvatore_: run: wicd-client   and it should show a tray icon
[11:37] <digitalfiz> Ampelbein that would be a nice message to output instead of just no new releases found lol. I thought it was taking to long to say that
[11:37] <digitalfiz> Ampelbein phps bug server and rsync server is down too the sky is falling the sky is falling!
[11:37] <salvatore_> if I run wicd client appear the gui interface of wicd, that i use to connect
[11:37] <salvatore_> then i connect with this one
[11:37] <^wat^> connect
[11:38] <salvatore_> and work.. but the icon on the top of the screen
[11:38] <tweasy> Argh
[11:38] <salvatore_> still to say: wireless disabled
[11:38] <salvatore_> not appear the usually two arrows that denote active connection
[11:39] <salvatore_> i wish use the wireless as a normal connection
[11:39] <salvatore_> and not with this shortcut
[11:39] <salvatore_> I hope explained the question :)
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> salvatore_: wicd is a great alternative to network manager
[11:40] <moji_> i cant install any software from ubuntu software center. every time i try to install, get this error "An unhandlable error occured" what should i do???!!!
[11:40] <Ampelbein> digitalfiz: right, the error message could be better, bug 228247
[11:40] <salvatore_> ok, i trust it, but if I want to use network manager
[11:40] <salvatore_> how i can do it?
[11:40] <moji_> i cant install any software from ubuntu software center. every time i try to install, get this error "An unhandlable error occured" what should i do???!!!
[11:40] <tweasy> tweasy@VGN-Z51WG:~/Downloads/POTC2011$ POTC.part1.rar unp foo.rar POTC.part1.rar: command not found
[11:41] <salvatore_> because the device works, i can't trust that it was difficult
[11:41] <salvatore_> right?
[11:41] <moji_> nobody could help?
[11:42] <Ledder> hm so any idea what "uncomment" means to do?
[11:42] <kitche2> tweasy umm your missing unrar there since POTC.part1.rar is not a comman1
[11:42] <naerey> Ledder: make the line not-a-comment
[11:42] <tweasy> kitche2, would you care to elaborate? I'm a newbie here
[11:42] <moji_> :\
[11:42] <Ledder> ok and how do i do that
[11:42] <oCean> tweasy: you realise that all illegal activities such as piracy are completely offtopic in this channel?
[11:43] <kitche2> moji_: be patient considering that it takes time to help people, you just repeat yourself twice
[11:43] <tweasy> oCean: I'm trying to unrar a file, who said anything about piracy?
[11:43] <naerey> Ledder: you've not specified any info -.-' .. usually commented lines start with #... so, just remove that #
[11:43] <oCean> tweasy: you showed what you are unpacking
[11:43] <salvatore_> if someone tell me what is the way to configure the default network manager
[11:43] <tweasy> oCean: and POTC is?
[11:43] <salvatore_> i google alone :)
[11:43] <oCean> tweasy: don't get smart please
[11:44] <Ledder> _/* 05ca:1812 does not require ucode. */
[11:44] <Lasers> tweasy: Pirates pirating. You know. Disney movie.
[11:44] <tweasy> oCean: no really, I wanted to ask you what it is since I just renamed the file before pasting it here
[11:44] <tweasy> Lasers: really? O.O coincidence. I'll change it
[11:44] <Lasers> Poor attempt, really.
[11:45] <tweasy> Lasers: I'm being serious, want me to post the real name of the file?
[11:45] <tweasy> Lasers: it isn't POTC i swear.
[11:45] <salvatore_> ok.. thanks so much for the help! :)
[11:45] <Lasers> tweasy: Right. What is it? :P
[11:46] <salvatore_> oCean: just one question, how i can use ath9x module?
[11:46] <Lasers> tweasy: Google "potc 2011" -- You get the idea.
[11:46] <th0r> salvatore_: modprobe
[11:46] <Gatekeeper__> hello everyone am having problems with via VT6421 PCI SATA Card anyone know of a fix for me please looks like the card keeps craching ubunty natty ..... <-------------- ...?
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> Lasers: +1 dude
[11:46] <tweasy> Lasers: I failed, sorry.
[11:46] <oCean> salvatore_: for me it just loads after install. Manually you should run 'sudo modprobe ath9k' (no quotes)
[11:46] <salvatore_> i've tried, restarted the system but it not worked
[11:46] <tweasy> Lasers: It is actually the movie but I erased the name and only did put the first letters xD
[11:47] <salvatore_> network manager still says: "wireless disabled by hardware swtich"
[11:47] <Lasers> salvatore_: Physical hardware switch. It is somewhere on your keyboard. Also, it could be software switch (FN + Wifi-Button).
[11:47] <naerey> bye all
[11:48] <Gatekeeper__> hello everyone am having problems with via VT6421 PCI SATA Card anyone know of a fix for me please looks like the card keeps craching ubunty natty ..... <-------------- No Raid running..
[11:48] <^wat^> raid
[11:48] <d9500> salvatore_, what kind of computer do you have?
[11:48] <salvatore_> Lasers: I only have a real hardware switch, that is enabled of course
[11:48] <salvatore_> d9500: a sony vaio Y
[11:49] <salvatore_> some suggestions? :)
[11:49] <tweasy> Back to the topic: tweasy@VGN-Z51WG:~/Downloads/Garden$ Flowers.part1.rar unp foo.rar Flowers.part1.rar: command not found
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> Gatekeeper__: are there any bugs reported?
[11:49] <Lasers> salvatore_: Roger. Sometimes I have an issue like that with one of the netbook. The solution? It's weird -- but you'll get it work. Try changing a switch -- then reboot. Or you have to modprobe something.
[11:49] <oCean> tweasy: I suggest you find help elsewhere
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: unp Flowers.part1.rar
[11:49] <tweasy> ActionParsnip cheers.
[11:49] <dr_willis> tweasy,  the command is just 'unp thefilaname.rar' you got the name pasted at the front,..
[11:49] <salvatore_> Lasers: ok now I try
[11:50] <salvatore_> THANK YOU to all again :)
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: you should read man pages, they tell you more than we ever can
[11:50] <Lasers> salvatore_: It's a hit or miss. Especially if you have switch that could be toggled by accident. (For me, it was).
[11:51] <Ginji> Hi
[11:51] <tweasy> ActionParsnip: what do you mean with "man pages"?
[11:52] <d9500> i had the same problem with a broadcom wireless chipset in a dell laptop. i never would've guessed that there was no actual wireless on/off switch on theside but that you had to use the function key on the keyboard
[11:52] <Lasers> tweasy: Open a terminal --> "man unp"
[11:52] <tweasy> Cheers.
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: run:  man unp     and read
[11:53] <tweasy> Did that already, thanks anyway.
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: ESC or Q to quit, cursors to scroll
[11:54] <tweasy> Thanks, figured that out!
[11:55] <tweasy> 1 Failed WARNING: There were errors while processing files!
[11:56] <tweasy> UNP is reliable to unrar? Or is there a more reliable tool for the purpose?
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: you can use: rar x file
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: unp is just a wrapper command
[11:56] <dr_willis> unp calls unrar/rar as we said earlier
[11:56] <tweasy> will give it a try, thanks
[11:56] <tweasy> dr_willies, would you repeate?
[11:57] <dr_willis> sounds like you got wome bad file downloads
[11:57] <tweasy> repeat*
[11:57] <dr_willis> unar x foo.rar
[11:57] <tweasy> maybe one of them is corrupted, my internet is very slow and the files are a tad big
[11:57] <dr_willis> unrar x foo.rar
[11:57] <tweasy> "foo" is the file?
[11:57] <tweasy> or x?
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: foo is the file
[11:58] <tweasy> Kay
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: you are aware there are many guides onlne, have you not researched any?
[12:00] <tweasy> ActionParsnip: Sorry I didn't, came here because it's faster
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: sure but if you can help yourself then you'll learn your OS fastr as well as rely less on others to do menial tasks like this
[12:03] <tweasy> ActionParsnip: yes sorry, I was lazy.
[12:05] <rype89> what's the root pw for the live cd?
[12:05] <RedDemon1970> just root i guess
[12:05] <rype89> nope isn't
[12:05] <Ampelbein> rype89: there is no root pw
[12:06] <oCean> !root
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> rype89: there isn't one in ubuntu, the account is also disabled
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> rype89: just use sudo as you normally would and you'll be fine
[12:08] <rype89> ActionParsnip: alright thanks
[12:08] <tweasy> ActionParsnip, dr_willis, oCean, Lasers: Thanks for helping me and sorry for having to deal with me, I'm not used to chatting and can be unpleasant sometimes. Also, how do you "unignore" someone?
[12:09] <tweasy> On a future reference the only way I could unrar it was with unrar it self -> sudo apt-get install unrar and then unrar e filename
[12:09] <tweasy> And puff, magic
[12:09] <Lasers> tweasy: It mean you didn't have unrar installed -- Me think.
[12:10] <Lasers> tweasy: unp *should* work as long as you have all supported archives (installed),
[12:10] <RedDemon1970> does anybody know where i can find a tutorial for making an ftp connection between windows 7 and ubuntu so i can use later on a grapical program to use the conneciton to exchange files?
[12:10] <tweasy> Lasers: unrar is the non-free version, I tried rar and unp
[12:10] <Lasers> tweasy: rar -- It rar.  unrar -- It unrar.
[12:10] <tweasy> but thanks anyway, I'm a boon @ linux :P
[12:10] <Lasers> :o
[12:10] <tweasy> Hmm, I see
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> RedDemon1970: which side is the ftp server to run on?
[12:10] <tweasy> I'm really a noob then
[12:10] <tweasy> hehe
[12:10] <RedDemon1970> i prefer ubunt as server
[12:11] <logik-bomb> shouldn't I be able to run 'update-locale' without sudo?
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> RedDemon1970: ftp is not terribly secure so ftp over WAN isn't too smart. I suggest you instal openssh-server and use sftp from that. If it's only for LAN then you can use this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FtpServer
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> RedDemon1970: or you can install samba and setup windows style folder shares for Windows to access
[12:12] <deckstar> can you ssh locally without port forwarding in router
[12:12] <izinucs> deckstar: yes
[12:12] <deckstar> Ty:)
[12:13] <RedDemon1970> i tried samba but it sais always gives me an error that it can download info from a server
[12:14] <moji_> hey guys
[12:15] <farr3ll> Hi there.Need i to be register?
[12:15] <oCean> farr3ll: not to be here, no
[12:15] <FernandoTertiary> hola, it appears the package manager is broken. It contiues to give error message when attempting to load updates
[12:16] <MooshiMuushi> Hey!
[12:16] <MooshiMuushi> Anyone here uses AirVideo?
[12:18] <moji_> i get error when i try to install software (any software) from Ubuntu software center. this is the error "An unhandlable error occured" anybody could help???
[12:18] <dr_willis> Never heard of AirVideo
[12:18] <dr_willis> moji_,  try using the apt-get tools.
[12:19] <farr3ll> is the apt-get update?
[12:19] <MooshiMuushi> moji_: I recommend either google your program or terminal it :D
[12:19] <MooshiMuushi> dr_willis: Ah. That's okay :D
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> MooshiMuushi: sounds like a network stream app, vlc can do that sort of this easily and mplayer has been doing it for AGES
[12:20] <MooshiMuushi> I don't know.
[12:21] <MooshiMuushi> I don't know if they can play MKV containers, or the codecs inside them.
[12:21] <MooshiMuushi> AirVideo on Windows plays pretty much every video codec, but on ubuntu. . .that
[12:21] <MooshiMuushi> 's different.
[12:21] <farr3ll> i like smplayer
[12:21] <MooshiMuushi> Sorry. Accidentally pressed enter.
[12:21] <jrib> MooshiMuushi: I'm sure you'll find vlc and mplayer very capable...
[12:22] <MooshiMuushi> I guess I'll give it a try.
[12:22] <moji_> mooshimuushi: where r u from buddy?
[12:22] <MooshiMuushi> Thannks jrib.
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> MooshiMuushi: linux can play mkv too http://ubuntuguide.net/how-to-play-mkv-files-in-ubuntu
[12:22] <MooshiMuushi> moji_: Australia.
[12:22] <MooshiMuushi> ActionParsnip: Yeah. But Ubuntu Airvideo can't.
[12:23] <farr3ll> i'm from China.Well.don't laugh at my English.Please
[12:23] <MooshiMuushi> farr3ll: That's okay.
[12:24] <farr3ll> Un , i don't know if i need to register.Need i ?
[12:24] <oCean> farr3ll: not to be here, no
[12:24] <dr_willis> air video on wiondows proberly  uses the standard way windows handles codex or directx/renderiong stuff..
[12:24] <farr3ll> what ?
[12:25] <MooshiMuushi> ActionParsnip: It's very odd. I build my own FFMPEG and it can't play AVI. If I use the FFMPEG that came with the AirVideo that I got off from Terminal works. Why? I wonder.
[12:25] <moji_> MooshiMuushi: could u please help me about an error?
[12:25] <dr_willis> ill sticl with lc on windows and linux ;)
[12:25] <dr_willis> VLC
[12:25] <MooshiMuushi> moji_: I'm new to Ubuntu. So I don't know what to do.
[12:25] <moji_> MooshiMuushi: i will send u screenshot of the error
[12:26] <MooshiMuushi> moji_: Try googleing the problem.
[12:26] <moji_> MooshiMuushi: aint work buddy
[12:26] <dr_willis> ffmpeg needs option to cimpile in specific features and codec suport
[12:27] <MooshiMuushi> moji_: Then I won't have any idea how to fix it :D
[12:27] <MooshiMuushi> dr_willis: Oooh!!
[12:27] <moji_> MooshiMuushi: thanks anyway
[12:27] <dr_willis> ffmpeg from medibuntu has most all options included
[12:27] <skynet_> I did export PS=1 "(blabla) $PS1" and it appear before my propt, how to get rid of it?
[12:27] <dr_willis> skynet_,  esport it again as you want it to be
[12:28] <lotheac> what respawns pulseaudio when it's killed?
[12:28] <skynet_> dr_willis: well I dit it again and it appeared twice now, can you pls specify what should I do exactly?
[12:29] <MooshiMuushi> Brb.
[12:29] <dr_willis> skynet_,  open a new termional, look at the value of PS1   ---> echo $PS1
[12:29] <tweasy> How do I go about un-ignoring someone here? tried !ignore for info but nothing
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: which client?
[12:30] <tweasy> here @ the webchat.freenode.net
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> tweasy: if nobody knows, try asking in #freenode
[12:31] <MooshiMuushi> Any idea on how to get VLC to connect to the iphone/itouch?
[12:32] <dr_willis> connect?
[12:32] <MooshiMuushi> Well, stream.
[12:32] <dr_willis> it has streaming features. you may have to check its docs and see aht the phone can play
[12:32] <jabba_> is it possible to install xfce or lxde _without_  xserver-xorg-* packages on a system without displays? -> remotesessions via Xvnc and XDMCP
[12:33] <ActionParsnip> jabba_: could use the --no-depends option (or whatever it is, check the man pages)
[12:33] <perlsyntax> Does anyone use irssi in here?
[12:33] <MooshiMuushi> Yeah. I'll see what I can do.
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> perlsyntax: I do
[12:36] <jabba_> ActionParsnip, could you explain this a bit more detailed please? Couldn't find such an option at apt-get or aptitude...
[12:37] <jabba_> ActionParsnip, got it "--no-install-recommends"
[12:38] <jabba_> thanks
[12:38] <gul> anybody knows about BSD. Any user?
[12:39] <RedDemon1970> how can i solve the error "can't connect the location" when i double click on the windows network icon in places - network?
[12:39] <MooshiMuushi> Odd. Where's my FFMPEG that I made.

[12:43] <ActionParsnip> gul: register your nick, then identify. Thats what that means
[12:44] <gul> ActionParnship: sorry to ask.........ummmbut HOW?
[12:44] <ActionParsnip> wellcome: you can mount the ISO (after MD5 testing it) and install with magicdisk
[12:44] <rpmdeb> what is the equivalent in the debian or ubuntu world of the command   rpm -qa --last      ???
[12:44] <ActionParsnip> !register | gul
[12:44] <RedDemon1970> great now samba tell me that my other comp doesn't exist, it's 1 meter at its left :(
[12:44] <ActionParsnip> rpmdeb: what does the command do?
[12:45] <clarkthehardy910> how do I change the refresh rate of my new unity install from the LiveCD? GRUB and normal boot do not boot with a rate compatible with my monitor, I can't even get to command line with f8 or shift
[12:46] <wellcome> i realy do not know how should i do that? any link or more help?
[12:46] <rpmdeb> on rpm based distros the command    rpm -qa --last  displays the  list of all recently installed RPMs
[12:46] <ActionParsnip> clarkthehardy910: try the boot option: nomodeset
[12:46] <ActionParsnip> rpmdeb: look in /var/log/dpkg.log
[12:46] <clarkthehardy910> ActionParsnip: thanks but how do I do that? I can't even get to command prompt
[12:46] <dr_willis> wellcome,  wubi is  oin the normal UBUNTU iso/cds  - what exactly did you download?
[12:46] <ActionParsnip> clarkthehardy910: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-ubuntu-10-04-lts-lucid-blank-screen-at-startup.html
[12:47] <wellcome> dr_willis: i just download .iso file
[12:47] <clarkthehardy910> ActionParsnip: when grub is loading, a split secound later I can't see anything but screen out of range error message
[12:47] <dr_willis> wellcome,  and the name of the iso is?
[12:47] <rpmdeb> ActionParsnip: that is not what i am after
[12:48] <clarkthehardy910> ActionParsnip: so I have to reinstall huh?
[12:48] <wellcome> dr_willis:ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386
[12:48] <robin0800> rpmdeb, try history in the software centre
[12:49] <izinucs> clarkthehardy910: if you boot to a live cd you should be able to edit grub and add the nomodset line
[12:49] <ActionParsnip> clarkthehardy910: no, just add the boot option
[12:49] <izinucs> clarkthehardy910: also on boot F6 typically will allow you to edit the same thing but not persistent..
[12:49] <clarkthehardy910> izinucs: but I'm a newb, I'm having trouble editing in the terminal
[12:50] <gul> win 1
[12:50] <apfel> When downloading a movie in google chrome I can choose "Open when finished" in the download bar.  However, I'd like to open the file immediately, while downloading.  Is there any way/extension to achieve this?
[12:50] <ActionParsnip> rpmdeb: if you read the log it shows the last few packages installed. How is that different?
[12:50] <ActionParsnip> apfel: chrome has a codec to play movies as streams
[12:51] <izinucs> clarkthehardy910: if you know where the right file is.. then use nano as your editor... no vi or vim.. use the arrow keys to move around etc.. ctrl+W to save or "write out" an edited file and ctrl+x to exit the editor..
[12:51] <DarsVaeda> that left bar thing popup just crashed, how do i reset it?

[12:53] <apfel> ActionParsnip: I'm using the Youtube Enhancer extension in order to download videos from youtube.com.  That works fine and I can also go to the downloads folder and open the file with mplayer while downloading it.  I'd just like to get rid of manually firing up mplayer.  Is there any way?
[12:53] <RedDemon1970> try using magick iso or deamontools lite

[12:53] <gul>  /msg nickserv register 1OnkarSatnaam<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[12:53] <GatekeeperZA> VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6421 IDE RAID Controller crashing ubuntu natty... <--- Help Please
[12:54] <izinucs> clarkthehardy910: nano is a default install.. there are lots of text editors.. some with more horsepower than others.. nano doesn't overwhelm you with what you rarely use.. it's just functional.. as for a sticky.. about editing grub?  pretty much the link given previously by ActionParsnip
[12:54] <rpmdeb> robin0800, software centre? i am running natty and do not seem to have that
[12:54] <dasupergamer> right click on the file you have downlaoded and then click on the tab for defualt program and cahnge it to...... please select
[12:54] <rpmdeb> a debian guy showed me 9 years ago a one liner that did exactly what rpm -qa --last does but I lost contact with that guy ages ago!
[12:54] <foormea> hey, does anyone have a nfs server running? i can't get mine to work, i'd need to know if you had to add entries in /etc/hosts.allow
[12:54] <RedDemon1970> if i type sudo apt-get install samba it sais samba is installed but ubuntu cannot execute sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart or reload or stop becouse it can't find the command
[12:55] <apfel> dasupergamer: click on it within chrome?
[12:55] <izinucs> foormea: I didn't but then I always access mine via IP address..
[12:55] <dasupergamer> so chrome is your browser
[12:55] <gul> how to register? I am not able to follow commands from ubuntucommounity/IRC/registeration........
[12:55] <RedDemon1970> sudo apt-get install smbfs
[12:56] <apfel> dasupergamer: yes
[12:56] <izinucs> !register | gul
[12:56] <dasupergamer> go into your downloads folder
[12:56] <dasupergamer> not on chrome on file explorer
[12:56] <RedDemon1970> sais that it''s installed to but it wont start, stop or reload
[12:56] <robin0800> rpmdeb, on mine its called ubuntu software centre
[12:56] <gul> izinucs: i am not able to do it..........Please help here! :)
[12:56] <foormea> izinucs: not hosts, but hosts.allow :)
[12:57] <ActionParsnip> apfel: could use youtube-dl and make a small script :)
[12:57] <dasupergamer> @apfel go onto your downlado folder not via chrome
[12:57] <izinucs> foormea: hosts.allow sounds like an apache file.. perhaps samba.. if it's samba then maybe.. I didn't however.
[12:57] <dasupergamer> download*
[12:58] <apfel> dasupergamer: I guess what you're trying to say only works *after* the download is finished?
[12:58] <rpmdeb> robin0800, software centre? i am running natty and do not have ubuntu software centre and do not want to install it either. i just want a command or one liner to do what rpm -qa --last does
[12:58] <dasupergamer> Yes
[12:58] <foormea> izinucs: my /etc/exports is set up properly i believe (example:      /mnt/sauv       <IP_ADDRESS>(rw,async) )
[12:58] <foormea> portmapper is running and configure _not_ on loopback
[12:58] <foormea> rpcinfo -p shows info about nfs services
[12:58] <izinucs> foormea: do you want to mount it on boot?
[12:59] <foormea> IPs are correct
[12:59] <oCean> gul: for help on registering, join #freenode
[12:59] <foormea> izinucs: well first i want to mount it
[12:59] <apfel> dasupergamer: "However, I'd like to open the file immediately, while downloading." :)
[12:59] <robin0800> rpmdeb, I 'm on natty too and its an icon in the unity launcher installed be default
[12:59] <foormea> and i cannot mount it now, it just doesn't respond when i try to mount it on a client
[12:59] <dasupergamer> so you want to open an incomplete file..... hmmmm.....
[12:59] <apfel> dasupergamer: exactly
[12:59] <gul> oCean: thank you! again...... :)
[13:00] <dasupergamer> impossible.... it would say its corrupt
[13:00] <apfel> dasupergamer: er, no
[13:00] <izinucs> foormea: hang on.. let me look in my fstab
[13:00] <rpmdeb> robin0800, i installed natty WITHOUT being forced to install unity, i do not have unity on my computer and do not want it either
[13:00] <apfel> dasupergamer: it works just fine for most video files
[13:00] <rpmdeb> back in 30 min
[13:00] <dasupergamer> until you get up to whats not downloaded.................
[13:00] <GatekeeperZA> VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6421 IDE RAID Controller crashing ubuntu natty... <--- Help Please
[13:00] <OerHeks> !apt-get | rpmdeb
[13:00] <apfel> ActionParsnip: thanks for the hint.  But I guess that only works from the command line
[13:00] <dasupergamer> I don't know then
[13:00] <apfel> dasupergamer: try it. no problem
[13:01] <foormea> izinucs: if you could please check your: 1. /etc/hosts.allow 2. /etc/exports 3. /etc/fstab, so i can compare my syntax with yours
[13:01] <apfel> dasupergamer: at least on my system, and using (s)mplayer
[13:01] <dasupergamer> sorry i am on my windows isntall ATM
[13:02] <izinucs> foormea: ok.. just to mount it on cli.. sudo mkdir /media/NAS ... sudo mount //<IP Address>/path/to/directory /media/NAS   (add smbfs 0 0 to the end for the fstab line)
[13:02] <apfel> dasupergamer: i see. I guess windows won't let you open the file at all because another process is accessing it already
[13:02] <dasupergamer> yes
[13:02] <idefix> when I start my program camorama it says it can't find the dev/video0/
[13:03] <idefix> what could be wrong?
[13:03] <apfel> dasupergamer: thanks for your help anyway
[13:03] <idefix> the cam is plugged in!
[13:03] <dasupergamer> ok
[13:03] <foormea> izinucs: //<ip>/path/to/dir? not mount <ip>:/path/to/dir ??
[13:03] <dasupergamer> have any of you guys tried andLinux.... linux addon for windows
[13:04] <salvatore_> hi all (i'm back)
[13:04] <dasupergamer> hi
[13:04] <izinucs> foormea: not in my fstab file.. using <ip>:/path/to/dir format looks like standard ssh type syntax  .. not mount syntax
[13:04] <OerHeks> dasupergamer, andlinux is not ubuntu, is it ?
[13:05] <izinucs> foormea: or I should say scp syntax
[13:05] <usr13> !wubi | dasupergamer
[13:05] <dasupergamer> it runs the linux kernal and HAS MANY FEATURES that ubuntu has
[13:05] <dasupergamer> like software centre... package manager
[13:05] <oCean> dasupergamer: still it is offtopic for this channel
[13:05] <foormea> apparently <ip>:/path/to/dir is correct
[13:05] <usr13> dasupergamer: Kind of like wubi?
[13:06] <dasupergamer> well wubi is ubuntu so
[13:06] <Pr070cal> hi how can i add this to my desktop http://imagebin.org/159003 on the right ???
[13:06] <usr13> dasupergamer: /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:06] <izinucs> foormea: then I'm baffled as to why it's working for me
[13:06] <dr_willis> andlinux is ubuntu in a virtualmachine that runs alongside windows. with xming.
[13:06] <salvatore_> I have a problem.. my wlan card is an Atheros AR9285, that ubuntu 11.04 does not recognize. Hence I installed linux-backports-... and compat-wireless driver. After this, if I run "rfkill unblock all" and use WICD to connect, all works fine, but..
[13:07] <foormea> and i still can't understand why my nfs is not working :(
[13:07] <dasupergamer> you have a PCI or PCI-E x1 card
[13:07] <salvatore_> the default network manager does not recognize that i'm connected
[13:07] <dasupergamer> or USB
[13:07] <NFischer> hi all i wanted to know if there is any automation for clicking the mouse and scrolling with its wheel.. ive a very click and scroll intensive job, which leads me to joint pain and all... i would want it to : Rightclick; pause 5 Sec.; MWheelDW; MWheelUP; pause 2sec.; Rightclick; pause 2 sec.; Rightclick.. (perpetuated).. is there any possibility to do that?
[13:07] <salvatore_> and some applications doesn't work (like software center)
[13:08] <salvatore_> because they think that i'm not connected
[13:08] <salvatore_> how I can fix? :/
[13:08] <usr13> foormea: What is the problem?  Can't mount it?
[13:09] <dasupergamer> firstly is your card USB, PCI or PCI0E x1
[13:09] <dasupergamer> PCI-E x1*
[13:09] <oCean> !who | dasupergamer
[13:09] <salvatore_> someone can help me? I'm looking for a solution from one day!
[13:09] <usr13> foormea: pastebinit /etc/fstab #on client side.  pastebinit /etc/exports #on server side, and we'll have a look.
[13:10] <foormea> ok
[13:10] <dasupergamer> @salvatore_ is your card PCI, USB or PCI-E x1
[13:10] <oCean> salvatore_: as you have pointed out, your netwok connection is actually fine. It's just the network manager telling you it is not connected. Wicd is a replacement for the original networkmanger
[13:10] <salvatore_> dasupergamer: i have a laptop, i think is something like PIC
[13:10] <salvatore_> *PCI
[13:11] <dasupergamer> hmmm...... try updating your laptop BIOS
[13:11] <oCean> !bugs | salvatore_
[13:11] <mrl> Hi. I'm having trouble connecting my iPhone 3GS (4.1) to Banshee 2.0.1. What are some basic things I should check?
[13:11] <pinus> Is the source of rpc.imapd from the nfs-common package hosted somewhere to browse?
[13:11] <foormea> http://paste.ubuntu.com/629336/ for /etc/exports
[13:11] <salvatore_> oCean: the problem is that probably some applications uses the default network manager to recognize if i'm connected, then doesn't work well :/
[13:12] <oCean> pinus: apt-get source nfs-common will install the sources of that package in your current directory
[13:12] <foormea> no entry in the fstab for now as i'm trying manually. command i issue on the client is:         sudo mount <IP_ADDRESS>:/mnt/sauv sauv/
[13:12] <salvatore_> ubottu: I hope that is not a bug
[13:13] <oCean> salvatore_: I've never heard of that, that is why I think it might be a bug. Remember, ubottu is just a bot
[13:13] <foormea> service portmap status -> running. service nfs-kernel-server status -> nfsd running
[13:14] <clarkthehardy910> ActionParsnip: I'm still having trouble
[13:14] <reliability> hi
[13:14] <salvatore_> oCean: I want try to do all installation of ubuntu again. What is the way that i must try to work well with my wlan?
[13:14] <clarkthehardy910> ActionParsnip: How do I edit the boot menu?
[13:14] <clarkthehardy910> ActionParsnip: the link you gave me isn't complete
[13:15] <usr13> foormea: Is <IP_ADDRESS> the ip address of the server?  ...and can you ping it from client?
[13:15] <oCean> salvatore_: I said before, that I have an AR928X, which works with the ath9k driver out of the box (ie without doing anything after the install)
[13:15] <airtonix> in a terminal, when I press ctrl + r and enter a search phrase, how do I step through the search results ?
[13:15] <foormea> yeah pingable. ssh-able
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> !bootoptions | clarkthehardy910
[13:15] <oCean> salvatore_: I might be necessary to unblock the rfkill thing though, but I really don't need wicd or backports to get it running
[13:16] <salvatore_> oCean: I install ubuntu, after what i can do? I tried to use ath9x module but it doesn't work, after i installed compat-wireless driver and backport module and now it work.. only at half.. I can do other?
[13:16] <usr13> foormea: does mount point sauv/ truly exist on the client?   Are you just outside of it when you issue this command?  If not try full path.
[13:16] <salvatore_> oCean: i'm not so lucky! :)
[13:16] <omry> anyone notices that if a single program is misbehaving - the alt-tab popup switcher stops working?
[13:17] <usr13> foormea: Don't you want to use a fstab entry?
[13:17] <clarkthehardy910> Please someone help: I can boot and install from the Live CD, but after installing, I can't see the boot menu, just an "out of range" message
[13:17] <salvatore_> oCean: perhaps there is an older version of ubuntu that can work? Which version do you use?
[13:17] <foormea> path /mnt/sauv        exists as a mount point wherever it needs to exist
[13:17] <reliability> How can I activate OSS-Support on ubuntu 11.04.
[13:17] <foormea> fstab won't make a difference
[13:17] <oCean> salvatore_: various versions. Currently on 11.04
[13:17] <dr_willis> clarkthehardy910,  you somehow need tio edit the default grub options to use a low-res text based menu. I have to do that here. let me pastebin my grub.cfg
[13:17] <reliability> I'm trying to use a metronome-application on ubuntu 11.04. However, GTick claims that the sound devices is not available and kmetronome just keeps being silent.
[13:18] <epzil0n> hi guys, does someone else got problem with the indicator-cpufreq? I installed it through a ppa and everything installed just fine but then i can't find it in dash :/
[13:18] <ActionParsnip> clarkthehardy910: when you see the keyboard with stickfigure screen, press SPACE then you can add bot options there. you want to remove 'quiet splash' then add the boot option 'nomodeset' if you use an nvidia GPU then instead add 'nouveau.blacklist=1'
[13:18] <foormea> when i try to mount locally (server mounts on server), i get this:      mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting <IP_ADDRESS>:/mnt/sauv
[13:18] <salvatore_> oCean: i've the same.. :/ Ok.. I try to read other threads online.. I hope to find something.. just another question, are you using x86 version?
[13:19] <clarkthehardy910> How do I edit my system's booting resolution from within the LiveCD...I've mounted the new install within the liveCD, Im in the terminal... now I'm stuck
[13:19] <foormea> iridium: i've done a sudo dpkg-reconfigure portmap
[13:19] <foormea> it does not use loopback
[13:19] <Goliath> is it better to use kernel vm or virtualbox to try a linux distro?
[13:19] <usr13> foormea: are you using sudo to mount it>?
[13:19] <oCean> salvatore_: currently x86_64
[13:19] <foormea> yes
[13:19] <dr_willis> clarkthehardy910,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/629341/ and  http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[13:19] <martijn1985> Does anyone know why my NFS server works fine on Natty, but on Lucid the client can't find the shared directory's? /etc/exports is exactly the same file and the firewall is turned on with natty, but off on lucid.
[13:19] <dr_willis> clarkthehardy910,  edit the /etc/default/grub and run update-grub somehow
[13:19] <clarkthehardy910> ActionParsnip: when I do what you've described, I can only change options for the Live CD not my installed OS
[13:19] <dr_willis> bbl
[13:20] <clarkthehardy910> dr_willis: thanks
[13:20] <foormea> Goliath: if i'm not mistaken kernel vm is the support for your cpu's virtualisations capabilities, which virtualbox uses. maybe i'm wrong though
[13:20] <salvatore_> oCean: do you think I could solve with the x64? :/
[13:20] <oCean> salvatore_: the thing with debugging the issue is, that you should take it step by step. Clean install > rfkill list to check for blocks > load ath9k .. etc
[13:20] <clarkthehardy910> dr_willis: is this the same in Unity 11.04?
[13:20] <usr13> foormea:  Does it give error when you try to mount it?
[13:20] <RedDemon1970> is there a general linux support room wich isn't as fulled as this one?
[13:21] <compdoc> RedDemon1970, full? you think there's too many ppl chatting?
[13:21] <bullgard4> RedDemon1970: ##linux
[13:22] <salvatore_> oCean: ok.. I try to do it again step by step, thank you for everything, you were very kind
[13:22] <Sidewinder1> RedDemon1970, Try #ubuntu-beginners
[13:22] <oCean> salvatore_: ok. Good luck with that. Don't forget to ask here if you don't know what your next step should be
[13:22] <foormea> Goliath: ok so i was wrong :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel-based_Virtual_Machine :) i remember trying qemu/kvm and it was a painful experience :)
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> clarkthehardy910: then hold shift at boot and you can press E on the kernel, then edit in the same way
[13:23] <usr13> foormea:/exit
[13:23] <salvatore_> oCean: ok, thank you again! :)
[13:23] <epzil0n> hi guys, does someone else got problem with the indicator-cpufreq? I installed it through a ppa and everything installed just fine but then i can't find it in dash :/
[13:23] <gbili> hello, i have a weird situation with ubuntu 11.04 and ati catalyst config, once i set up two screen desktop, i can move mouse from  one screen to another (as expected), but when i try to drag a window from one screen to another it wont work
[13:23] <foormea> usr?
[13:23] <gulzar>  Cannot join #bsd (Channel is invite only). What to do? I am registered.
[13:23] <oCean> gulzar: again, #freenode is a better place to ask then here
[13:23] <clarkthehardy910> ActionParsnip: I can't see the screen after holding shift
[13:24] <gulzar> oCean: ok.......
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> clarkthehardy910: as soon as the system boots, hold it. Even before the POST beep
[13:24] <clarkthehardy910> ActionParsnip: it's blank, even after pressing or holding e tried both
[13:24] <keithb> epzil0n: I thought indicator applets didn't work with unity?
[13:24] <clarkthehardy910> ActionParsnip: I've tried that too
[13:24] <clarkthehardy910> I'm trying dr_willis's method
[13:24] <epzil0n> keithb: yes they do, applets wont work but i got 4 up and running
[13:25] <Henriquez> Is there a way to delay the startup of an application at boot?
[13:25] <salvatore_> oCean: I forgot to ask you one question, can I query you to show my "rfkill list" ?
[13:25] <robin0800> epzil0n, look in /usr/applications dash takes time to be populated sometimes
[13:25] <epzil0n> keithb: application indicators that is ;)
[13:25] <benoit_> fg
[13:25] <clarkthehardy910> ActionParsnip: Im trying the method given by dr_willis but I'm not sure if it will let me make changes, because its mounted as read only in the Live CD
[13:25] <mevkurray> Henriquez: Write a script and use sleep
[13:26] <Henriquez> ok i ll look into that
[13:26] <reliability> Does someone know a metrnome application which uses the standard sound output?
[13:26] <epzil0n> robin0800: ok, i'll check there but already rebooted a couple of times
[13:26] <mevkurray> as in "sleep 30 <newline> myprog" starts myprog 30s after the script (roughly)
[13:27] <compdoc> epzil0n, google 'indicator-cpufreq unity'
