[04:12] <sacarlson> greenwax: oh and how many users do you have on that system?  maybe other users were reading and writing at the same time so that would slow it down, as media may not of had as much trafic
[04:13] <justinsane_> maco: k, brb. wish me godspeed.
[04:13] <retro_> kl
[04:13] <retro_> Hey there, what would someone do if they came back to your computer with no mouse, keyboard, or display working, when all of which functioned 3 minutes ago?
[04:13] <Loshki> bullgard4: it might not be a hardware issue. Try a different partition editor?
[04:13] <retro_> I can ping the computer, but no SSH.
[04:13] <maco> retro_: assume their friend pranked them and unplugged everything?
[04:13] <greenwax> sacarlson: I don't think that is it either. I am the only user
[04:13] <retro_> I checked.
[04:13] <sacarlson> greenwax: ok
[04:14] <bullgard4> bc81: What do you mean by "touch /forcefsck"?
[04:14] <retro_> No one is in the house.
[04:14] <retro_> I left to go grab a snack.
[04:14] <retro_> Came back an bam! nothing.
[04:14] <maco> bullgard4: use the touch command to create /forcefsck
[04:14] <maco> bullgard4: "sudo touch /forcefsck"
[04:14] <bullgard4> Loshki: GParted is the most advanced partition editor as far as I know.
[04:15] <lc0658385> about to do an install of ubuntu alongside vista
[04:15] <KM0201> lc0658385: ok..?
[04:15] <Loshki> bullgard4: "most advanced" does not imply "most bug-free". Try using fdisk instead?
[04:15] <bc81> bullgard4: check drives for errors, then come right back
[04:15] <lc0658385> not im not sure hether to install 32 bit 64 bit. i have been googling. but seems there is alot of confusion
[04:16] <KM0201> lc0658385: how much RAM do you have?
[04:16] <maco> lc0658385: it depends what CPU you have and how much RAM
[04:16] <lc0658385> if i want to run ine stuff. should i avoid 64 bit ??
[04:16] <col0ur> Hello, i just upgraded to Maverick from Hardy (im on a netbook). Before, on Hardy, if i played a game under wine with a resolution of 800x600, it would stretch to fill my entire screen. However now under Maverick it just uses a square in the middle (actual 800x600). Any way i can fix this?

[04:16] <KM0201> lc0658385: *some*(not much anymore) oddball hardware may work better under 32bit, or some web plugins, etc.. work better under 32bit...
[04:16] <lc0658385> maco: i have turion 64 x2 processor and 2 gb of ram
[04:17] <bullgard4> Loshki: Thank you very much for your advice. I know the command fdisk well.
[04:17] <KM0201> lc0658385: if it were me, w/ only 2gigs of ram, i'd just install 32bit.
[04:17] <bullgard4> bc81: Stop trolling.
[04:17] <lc0658385> maco: and broadcom wireless. i think that might be a problem on 64 bit. maybe thats a wrong assumption ?
[04:17] <Loshki> bullgard4: so can you move the partition using fdisk?
[04:17] <justinsane> maco: did that to no avail!
[04:18] <maco> lc0658385: there are native drivers now
[04:18] <bc81> bullgard4: why do you think i'm trolling?  i'm giving you legitimate advice..you can choose not to take it, but please don't falsely accuse me
[04:18] <maco> lc0658385: i think dell threatened broadcom if they didnt release some post-haste
[04:18] <KM0201> maco: lol
[04:18] <rallias> Can someone help me fix my postfix installation?
[04:18] <lc0658385> maco: thanks.. hmm.. sounds like you think 64 bit is safe enough
[04:18] <maco> lc0658385: ive been using it since '08 (when i got a 64bit machine)
[04:18] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: Can you explain exactly what you're trying to do, and pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l" and any error messages from gparted?
[04:19] <lc0658385> maco: thanks.. i will install it ;)
[04:19] <maco> lc0658385: the only caution is that i find 64bit to be a bit slower than 32bit with equal amounts of ram. my 64bit machine now has 4gb
[04:19] <justinsane> can someone help me troubleshoot my sound card. Ubuntu is no longer detecting it!
[04:19] <KM0201> lc0658385: 64bit is probably fine... i've used 32bit on a 64bit machine for 4yrs, no issues.. i just don't see the point of 64bit, w/ less than 4gigs of ram
[04:19] <strigoi66> Hello, can any one help me with setup of dual screen with each one different not mirrored. I use an ati radeon 9250 and am running ubuntu 10.04lts with all latest updates/drivers.

[04:20] <Mauricio12345> how can i suspend my netbook whit ubuntu 10.10, its a hasee netbook and wont suspend
[04:20] <Loshki> lc0658385: then go 32 bit for now. You can upgrade later if you add more ram...
[04:21] <Mauricio12345> i try the s2ram command
[04:21] <Mauricio12345> but isnt works
[04:21] <Jordan_U> Loshki: lc0658385: The only way to "
[04:21] <Eryn_1983_FL> any ideas
[04:21] <maco> lc0658385: others say they notice no difference. its possibly just because i keep so much stuff running constantly... id have > 100 firefox tabs with regularity at the time
[04:21] <Jordan_U> Loshki: lc0658385: ... to "upgrade" from 32 to 64 but Ubuntu is to re-install.

[04:21] <maco> Mauricio12345: sudo pm-suspend --auto-quirks     ?
[04:21] <Mauricio12345> maco thanks
[04:21] <Mauricio12345> im trying now
[04:22] <maco> Mauricio12345: possibly just not well-supported hardware
[04:22] <Loshki> Jordan_U: lc0658385: agreed,  The only way to "upgrade" from 32 to 64 is to re-install...
[04:22] <Mauricio12345> maco in winbugs works fine
[04:23] <cokegen> hi ... anyone has crashes with X-Chat ?
[04:23] <maco> Mauricio12345: ...so?
[04:23] <maco> Mauricio12345: windows support does not imply linux support
[04:23] <Mauricio12345> maco so this is not a hardware prolem
[04:23] <Mauricio12345> mavo ok
[04:23] <maco> Mauricio12345: didnt say it was. implied it was a driver problem.
[04:23] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: Can you pastebin the output of "dmesg" after getting this IO error? I still suspect it's a hardware problem, even if SMART says nothing is wrong.
[04:23] <justinsane> any ideas why ubuntu is no longer detecting my sound card!?!?
[04:24] <maco> justinsane please file a bug. there are a group of people who know how the audio stack works
[04:24] <justinsane> maco: ok
[04:24] <TSquar3d_> Okay... so I want to reset all of my network settings... can anyone tell me how to do this?
[04:24] <maco> Mauricio12345: you can file a bug with: ubuntu-bug -p linux
[04:24] <Mauricio12345> maco i know, well, i will try the command now, thanks and sorry by my very bad english
[04:25] <justinsane> how do i file a bug

[04:28] <maco> justinsane: yes, information requests will be made on the bug report, and they will show up in your email. you can simply reply to the emails
[04:28] <Loshki> bullgard4: if I understand correctly, you had read failures during smart self-test. "The previous self-test completed having the read element of the test failed". That's bad...
[04:28] <[Adam|Miner]> I have tried both CD and usb inbstallations, both failed
[04:29] <bullgard4> Loshki: I took notice.

[04:37] <avashi1> DrKenobi here is a link to theme >> http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Moomex-Theme?content=57063
[04:37] <avashi1> i dont know what you mean by compile.. I have no computer knowledge
[04:38] <maco> avashi1: is it just a gnome theme *named* Moomex?
[04:38] <avashi1> Dr please help
[04:38] <maco> avashi1: if so, drag the .tar.gz into the system -> preferences -> appearance window
[04:38] <bc81> avashi1: you can i think drag and drop it onto the themes window
[04:38] <avashi1> I tried drag and drop but pop up menu for system don't open
[04:38] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: I started anwe th operation to move /dev/sda7 to the left and enlarge it. This will take 13 mins.
[04:39] <maco> avashi1: open the window from the menu first
[04:39] <maco> avashi1: then drag the tarball into the open window
[04:39] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: I started anwew the operation to move /dev/sda7 to the left and enlarge it. This will take 13 mins.
[04:39] <DrKenobi> i was wrong, its just a theme, follow maco and bc81 advice
[04:39] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: No, it will take 19 mins.
[04:40] <IRCLemur> Anyone here ever boot directly from an ISO using grub2?
[04:40] <avashi1> marco I open the window first but still can't drag it
[04:41] <bc81> avashi1: you try to put it in your ~/.themes folder?

[04:58] <col0ur> Hello, i just upgraded to Maverick from Hardy (im on a netbook). Before, on Hardy, if i played a game under wine with a resolution of 800x600, it would stretch to fill my entire screen. However now under Maverick it just uses a square in the middle (actual 800x600). Any way i can fix this?
[04:58] <puppy> my wireless was working with the here but I turned off during a live session.Now here I cannot turn on!
[04:58] <dave9> puppy: thanks i'll give that a try. cheers
[04:59] <Jordan_U> LinuxNoob: No, you do not need to partition the drive before installing.
[04:59] <speedhog_> puppy: well, i once had 10.04 and i updated to 10.10 and the driver kept working, but when it got accidentally uninstalled, i couldnt get it back to work
[04:59] <puppy> dave9; u r welcome..........it will work
[04:59] <bc81> col0ur: i was thinking, maybe try in winecfg using a virtual desktop set to your native screen resolution
[04:59] <LinuxNoob> then what could be the problem, why wont linux download on my system?
[04:59] <Loshki> bullgard4: hard drives get old and begin to fail. Yours is generating read errors. It is up to you whether you want to rely on a disk that has started to generate errors. Personally, I use such disks for scratch storage or unimportant data only...
[05:00] <col0ur> bc81, might be worth a shot
[05:00] <LinuxNoob> install**

[05:19] <Ugons> well I can hear him, he can't hear me

[05:27] <juniour> k
[05:27] <bazhang> dshbusiness, pdfedit? apt-cache search pdf and take a look
[05:28] <sudormrf> Yo.. does anyone know if it is possible to re-install the gnome network manager from a live-cd?

[05:29] <eoss> juniour: no i thought it wasnt updated but it saying it was actually
[05:29] <[thor]> !vote2ban ubuser
[05:29] <bazhang> juniour, there are no drivers for that card in additional drivers
[05:29] <juniour> bazhang k
[05:29] <bazhang> [thor], please dont
[05:29] <KM0201> [thor]: really... come on.. this isn't a democracy
[05:29] <sacarlson> oliver_: I've seen people having problems with windows 7 file shareing even with windows XP,  hope you have better luck than them
[05:29] <Us3r_Unfriendly> sudormrf: i'm guessing but if you were in a live environment and you open a terminal, mounted your drive, and chroot into it...I believe you could install it
[05:30] <juniour> k
[05:30] <ubuser> like it wouldnt make my trip faster
[05:30] <ubuser> honestly..?
[05:30] <bazhang> eoss, #aircrack-ng for packet injection , not here
[05:30] <eoss> ok thanks
[05:30] <dshbusiness> bazhang: I have tried that. But pdfeditor seems to be a little complex.
[05:30] <oliver_> Yes I got it working great on xp that's what I use.  But, my friend has windows 7 and it was completely different.
[05:31] <ubuser> make sure you dont delete the rong files tho
[05:31] <bazhang> dshbusiness, what other ones have you seen and tried from apt-cache search pdf
[05:31] <Us3r_Unfriendly> windows might be okay in my book if I could use a terminal all the time
[05:31] <dshbusiness> bazhang: OK, I'll try it right now. Thanks
[05:31] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ...not command prompt
[05:31] <juniour> eoss wt the actuall problem you are facing
[05:31] <oliver_> Is there a video or website that anyone could recommend that might explain it?
[05:31] <ubuser> manual didnt help either
[05:32] <ubuser> -p or -g
[05:32] <bazhang> oliver_, explain what
[05:32] <eoss> juniour: its ok i figure it out thank you very much
[05:32] <ysk> bhaiiiiiiiiiiiii

[05:32] <bazhang> juniour, in the kernel
[05:33] <puppy> bazhang: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560827/
[05:33] <oliver_> bazhang the samba file share with windows 7 host os and ubuntu guest os.
[05:33] <bazhang> puppy, thats not the output from lspci
[05:33] <oliver_> Using virtualbox I should add.
[05:33] <KM0201> bazhang: lmao
[05:34] <KM0201> thats just funny
[05:34] <puppy> bazhang: ok I will give it now
[05:34] <Flynsarmy> I installed the mail server with tasksel. I need to add a mail alias to forward to an email address on a diff domain (gmail account). I added it in /etc/aliases then did a sudo newaliases (no errors). Doesn't work though - get a delivery failed email. What am i doing wrong?
[05:34] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560828
[05:34] <sacarlson> oliver_: oh maybe ssh file share would be easier,  would that be an option?
[05:34] <x_> found sensors using sensors-detect, but not seeing my core i3 cpu temp.. bios shows it though.
[05:34] <oliver_> sacarlson what is ssh file share?
[05:35] <juniour> hey why cant i see the folder in windows 7 which i made in ubuntu 10.04
[05:35] <sacarlson> oliver_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSHFS
[05:35] <ubuser> some support.
[05:35] <bazhang> juniour, what filesystem on your ubuntu install
[05:36] <bazhang> juniour, how are you sharing the file btw
[05:36] <juniour> bazhang i have installed hrough wubi
[05:36] <ubuser> when i use fdisk it is saying i dont have permissions to write how to fix?
[05:36] <remanifest> How can I get to the grub> setup menu in 10.10?
[05:36] <ubuser> i used sudo..
[05:36] <Jordan_U> remanifest: What is your end goal?
[05:36] <remanifest> Jordan_U: To setup grub manually
[05:36] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: sudo fdisk -l ...doesn't work for you?
[05:36] <ubuser> ty
[05:36] <sacarlson> ubuser: you might be trying to partition a disk you are booted from or have mounted?
[05:37] <Jordan_U> remanifest: Why do you want to do it "manually"?
[05:37] <remanifest> Jordan_U: I simply want to be able to access that setup, please... do you know how?
[05:37] <sorandomname> you can use gparted to configure partitions
[05:37] <juniour> bazhang i see the window7 folder and file there but vice-versa it not happened any ans
[05:37] <remanifest> Jordan_U: Because it's failed to work properly on its own
[05:37] <ubuser> -l didnt display anything
[05:37] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: you might have to add yourself to either the admin group or the sudo group
[05:37] <oliver_> Ok thank you I will look into it.
[05:37] <col0ur> bc81, 800x600 only
[05:37] <col0ur> Hello, i just upgraded to Maverick from Hardy (im on a netbook). Before, on Hardy, if i played a game under wine with a resolution of 800x600, it would stretch to fill my entire screen. However now under Maverick it just uses a square in the middle (actual 800x600). Any way i can fix this?
[05:37] <ubuser> oh okay thanks
[05:37] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: ...to use sudo if it isn't working for you right now
[05:37] <ubuser> didnt know you had to unmount it
[05:37] <ubuser> wait..
[05:37] <ubuser> thatll work?
[05:37] <sorandomname> you go into disk manager
[05:38] <sorandomname> and then unmount the partitions
[05:38] <Jordan_U> remanifest: What have you tried and how does it fail?
[05:38] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: sudo mount -l will list all the mounted partitions
[05:38] <ubuser> where does my flash drive go if it isnt mounted?
[05:38] <puppy> bazhang: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560831/
[05:38] <paroh> when will be the next update of  ubuntu will be available with libreoffice?

[05:38] <remanifest> Jordan_U: Seriously dude, can you please tell me how the syntax has changed from 0.x to 1.x?
[05:38] <juniour> hey any ans f my ques
[05:38] <bazhang> puppy, thats still not lspci
[05:38] <sorandomname> you have to do sudo apt-get update first
[05:38] <BlueBomber7> Is there a way to enter *EXACT* partition size in bytes in the disk utility?
[05:38] <bazhang> juniour, please be patient
[05:39] <sorandomname> I think
[05:39] <sorandomname> so
[05:39] <juniour> bazhang k
[05:39] <sorandomname> you can try
[05:39] <sorandomname> and see
[05:39] <BlueBomber7> sorandomname: I have a slider.
[05:39] <FloodBot2> sorandomname: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:39] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: it's there, just not mounted.  i personally like using "sudo tree -ash /dev/disk/" to get more info on my partitions
[05:39] <sacarlson> ubuser: you mount partitions not disks,  your usb should remain as something like /dev/sdX
[05:39] <Jordan_U> remanifest: You use grub-setup instead if you want to do it "manually", but doing it "manually" doesn't make much sense.
[05:39] <BlueBomber7> I need to create a partition sized precisely to add to a multidisk array.
[05:39] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: you'll probably won't have the command "tree" but using "ls" with some arguments will do the same
[05:40] <sorandomname> usually, partitions are mounted into the directory "/media"
[05:40] <puppy> bazhang: I typed the first line only at first but says " SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation no tpossible due to RF-kill". Then I typed  both commands at a time and the result I gave u.
[05:40] <ubuser> saying i dont have tree -.-
[05:41] <juniour> bazhang in ubuntu i have right clicked on forder and clicked on sharing it says me to install sambha i have installed it bunt when i switch ti windows i cant find the folder you have idea of that shared folder path

[05:42] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: Looks like a hardware error. You might be able to work around it by using ddrescue to read and re-write the problem blocks. What do you plan to do with the drive?
[05:42] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: this shows uuid, by-path, by-label etc.
[05:42] <sacarlson> ubuser: I'm clueless what your talking about,  did you fertalize it?

[05:43] <puppy> bazhang: Now I got it. http://paste.ubuntu.com/560832/
[05:43] <sorandomname> @junior: I usually use openssh on ubuntu, and on windows, I use filezilla. Not the best, but it works
[05:44] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: show's info on partitions that are connected to your machine.  it's just listing info from the /dev/disk directory
[05:44] <ubuser> i dont have a disk\
[05:44] <BlueBomber7> Will someone confirm that the disk utility does not let one enter an exact byte size for partitioning?
[05:44] <sorandomname> have you tried using gparted?
[05:44] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: also...   sudo lshw    ...will show you too.   Also "sudo lsusb" will help
[05:44] <ubuser> gparted thats the name of it :D
[05:45] <Torr> can I have ubuntu live cd on a usb flash disk?
[05:45] <Us3r_Unfriendly> i love gparted
[05:45] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Torr: yes
[05:45] <Torr> how?
[05:45] <bazhang> AR5001 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01) puppy
[05:45] <KM0201> Torr: google "Unetbootin"
[05:45] <sorandomname> @torr: yes
[05:45] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Torr: check out unetbootin
[05:45] <bazhang> !atheros > puppy
[05:45] <sorandomname> @Torr: You can use Lilo. It allows for persistence
[05:45] <KirkMcDonald> I am on 10.10 and mediainfo doesn't seem to be in apt.
[05:45] <KM0201> bazhang: that device should work flawlessly w/ Ubuntu (i've got it on 2 laptops
[05:45] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: This hard disk is the only hard disk in my Maverick laptop computer. I was going to prepare a lecture about Banshee when my /home partiton showed an overflow. I plan to use this computer furtheron as it did in the past flawlessly. My intention is to provide more storage capacity to the home partition /dev/sda7.
[05:45] <Torr> sorandomname: persistence? you mean changes are saved?
[05:46] <BlueBomber7> sorandomname: Would you confirm that the disk utility does not let you enter an exact byte-sized (:-) partition?
[05:46] <puppy> bazhang; how to get in private messages
[05:46] <sorandomname> @Torr: yes
[05:46] <Torr> ok
[05:46] <ubuser> first one just said driver stuff no name...
[05:46] <juniour> hey can any one help me out
[05:46] <masjoko> hi, alll
[05:46] <Us3r_Unfriendly> sorandomname: i haven't used lilo.  isn't it a boot loader?  or am i confusing it with a bootloader that starts with a "L"
[05:46] <bazhang> KM0201, it should indeed, looks like he has the hardware switch set to off
[05:46] <Torr> I want to buy a netbook how can I know that it is compatible with ubuntu?
[05:46] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: I did not use the command ddrescue yet. I need to read about it.
[05:46] <ubuser> am i looking for a folder or a file??
[05:46] <bazhang> !who | ubuser
[05:46] <sorandomname> @Us3r: It is a bootloader, but i think it is lili, or lilo
[05:46] <KM0201> bazhang: thats the only thing that makes sense, it's worked "out of the box"... pretty much flawlessly, since 9.04 or 9.10
[05:47] <masjoko> how to install perl/tk in ubuntu 10.10??
[05:47] <masjoko> hello..
[05:47] <[thor]> Torr: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks
[05:47] <masjoko> how to install perl/tk in ubuntu 10.10??
[05:47] <bazhang> ubuser, put the nickname of the person you are speaking to first , before your message otherwise it will be lost
[05:47] <sorandomname> @Us3r_Unfriendly: It is lili, not lilo
[05:47] <bazhang> KM0201, agreed
[05:47] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: I know you've been told this already, but I wouldn't personally trust the drive any more.
[05:47] <ubuser> i mean gah
[05:47] <ubuser> HEY EVERY BODY, gah
[05:47] <juniour>  masjoko perl comes preinstalled in ubuntu
[05:47] <masjoko> [thor], how to install perl/tk in ubuntu 10.10??
[05:48] <bazhang> ubuser, stop that
[05:48] <puppy> bazhang: I did not get anything
[05:48] <Us3r_Unfriendly> sorandomname: you wrote lilo
[05:48] <sorandomname> My mistake. It is lili usb creator
[05:48] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: Oh! Thank you for your warning.
[05:48] <juniour> hey help please
[05:48] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: You're welcome.
[05:48] <sorandomname> http://www.linuxliveusb.com/
[05:48] <ubuser> so if you unmount a flash drive, its usually in the folder dev/disk?
[05:48] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Torr: unetbootin works great, except for making bootable windows flashdrive.  For that I use something else
[05:49] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: Thank you for your help.
[05:49] <Torr> so for testing a netbook  I need to take Ubuntu Netbook Remix and not just ubuntu live cd?
[05:49] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: You're welcome.
[05:49] <puppy> bazhang: I read the messages and going there to see.Thanks
[05:49] <xangua> Torr: use what you like more
[05:49] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: not exactly.
[05:49] <bazhang> sorandomname, unetbootin and usb-creator are generally what we recommend in here for making a usb flash key bootable for iso
[05:49] <Torr> xangua: both will work? Touchscreen too?
[05:49] <sorandomname> @bazhang: I use a wubi installation and usb-creator myself.
[05:49] <Jordan_U> Torr: The hardware support is identical, it's just the UI that is different between Ubuntu Desktop and Ubuntu Netbook Remix.
[05:50] <ubuser> i assume it isnt the same name as when it was mounted either?
[05:50] <[thor]> Torr: netbook remix has the Unity interface, the desktop version still uses gnomepanel
[05:50] <Us3r_Unfriendly> bazhang: i've had issues with usb-creator
[05:50] <sorandomname> @ubuser: You can specify size in MB in gparted
[05:50] <bazhang> Us3r_Unfriendly, same which is why I use unetbootin
[05:50] <BlueBomber7> Where can I submit a bug/feature suggestion for the palimpsest disk utility?
[05:50] <KM0201> Jordan_U: well, i'd say the main difference is, Gnome doesn't suck, and UNR does.. :)
[05:50] <BlueBomber7> I can email the author personally as a fallback ;)
[05:50] <Us3r_Unfriendly> bazhang: i mean it looks like it works but when actually trying, sometimes it's not 100% for me
[05:51] <Torr> ok
[05:51] <bazhang> sorandomname, not used wubi, so not really familiar from a first person perspective ie samba, file-sharing etc
[05:51] <bazhang> BlueBomber7, brainstorm
[05:51] <bazhang> !brainstorm
[05:51] <Us3r_Unfriendly> wubi is too scary for me
[05:51] <Jordan_U> _______________: Please stop changing your nick, it just adds noise in the channel.
[05:51] <sorandomname> @bazhang: Wubi allows you to install ubuntu on a hard disk with windows, without repartitioning
[05:51] <ubuser> I need to put 10.10 lubuntu on a flash drive but its saying its full how can i find where my flash drive is after its unmounted?
[05:52] <KM0201> Us3r_Unfriendly: gee, if i could count the ways why i think that is just a mess
[05:52] <_______________> Sorry, I had to change to my other account to see which names I had grouped because I forgot how many _ this one had in it.
[05:52] <KM0201> _______________: wwell thats an annoying nick, why don't you try a normal one
[05:52] <Jordan_U> _______________: If you need to do experimenting with nicks in the future please part #ubuntu first.
[05:53] <Us3r_Unfriendly> sorandomname: when i began my wonderful trip on ubuntu i first used wubi.  My girlfriend downloaded a virus by accident on windows...and then i couldn't boot into ubuntu.  after that i just partition my drives...never wubi anymore
[05:53] <puppy> ubuser: try to format the drive before installation. And u can see the disk in My computer after unmounted
[05:53] <_______________> ok, but if we are going to discuss this further, we should move it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:53] <[thor]> KM0201: i am amusing myself by treating the nick as a mad-lib.
[05:53] <col0ur> Hello, i just upgraded to Maverick from Hardy (im on a netbook). Before, on Hardy, if i played a game under wine with a resolution of 800x600, it would stretch to fill my entire screen. However now under Maverick it just uses a square in the middle (actual 800x600). Any way i can fix this?
[05:53] <ubuser> im sick confused
[05:54] <sorandomname> @ubuser: You can also look in the sidebar in nautilus
[05:54] <ubuser> I JUST WANT FIREFOXC
[05:54] <KM0201> col0ur: you upgraded direct from Hardy to Maverick?
[05:54] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: what's the confusion about?
[05:54] <sorandomname> @ubuser: "sudo apt-get install firefox"
[05:54] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: what is the goal your trying to achieve?
[05:54] <col0ur> KM0201, I wiped my machine completely
[05:54] <KM0201> oh ok.
[05:54] <[thor]> Us3r_Unfriendly: trolling.
[05:54] <ubuser> to install 10.10 on my flash drive
[05:55] <Us3r_Unfriendly> [thor]: trolling?
[05:55] <ubuser> i got 9.10 isos on 2 cds, now im out of cds. and my flash drive is only showing 2 megs, i cant use the fdisk command without the location of the flash drive and it wont let me do it mounted
[05:55] <sorandomname> @ubuser: I installed 10.10 on my flash drive a few minutes ago using usb-creator. I partition my flash drive using disk utility, and install ubuntu on the second partition. With the first for data, as Windoze can only see the first partition on a drive.
[05:55] <g_o_o> ubuser, have you tried reformatting the flash drive?
[05:55] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: well first on the machine you downloaded the ubuntu iso...is it windows or ubuntu?
[05:56] <ubuser> i NEED to reformat it
[05:56] <xangua> and why not install from cd ubuser ¿
[05:56] <ubuser> no more cds
[05:56] <ubuser> used them and the 9.10 isos wont work, but did on my grandmas..?
[05:56] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: your' going to backup your flashdrive and reformat it to make a clean usb device that way you can begin
[05:56] <sorandomname> @ubuser: You can use lili on windows, and disk-creator for linux. As for mac, nobody seems to care about that.
[05:56] <ubuser> im on ubuntu right now i tried the fdisk command
[05:57] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: gparted is great, 100% for doing this type of task
[05:57] <sorandomname> @ubuser: You can use gparted. It specifies size in MB
[05:57] <ubuser> i dont have any files on it... i need to clear my flash to put the iso on it
[05:57] <ubuser> i got the unetbootin to install from flash
[05:57] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: that's exactly the point.  use gparted to reformat the usb device
[05:58] <sorandomname> @ubuser: You can also repartition it too.
[05:58] <ubuser> oh okay
[05:58] <rsh> u can format in cmdline
[05:58] <Datz> Hi, I have several audio outputs on my motherboard. The motherboard came with a app/driver for windows where I could control each port. I find I cannot with ubuntu's default tools/driver. Is there something else I could try?
[05:58] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: but first you need to know where it's name, example:  /dev/sdf1 etc.
[05:58] <ubuser> thats all ive needed :(
[05:59] <ubuser> im in dev
[05:59] <Us3r_Unfriendly> sudo ls -Ralh /dev/disk
[05:59] <ubuser> would it be a folder?
[05:59] <sorandomname> @ubuser: Go in gparted, and go to the right side, and find your device
[05:59] <ubuser> there is no disk file or folder
[05:59] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: sudo lsusb  !!

[06:05] <sorandomname> @torr: I don't recommend bittorrent though, as my md5sums never matched when downloading with it. I use a direct download instead.
[06:05] <ubuser> how do u get a list of rooms?
[06:05] <ubuser> 5.1 :(
[06:05] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: if your using ubuntu you should have a /dev/disk directory and have the command lsusb
[06:05] <ubuser> i dont.
[06:05] <KM0201> sorandomname: i always use the torrents, and have yet to have a problem
[06:05] <Torr> how much space does wubi install take?
[06:06] <ubuser> i got a folder that has a blue arrow on it and says fd and some others no disk folder tho

[06:06] <ubuser> havent slept
[06:06] <bucky> raviepic3, cinerella is probably the closest to professional
[06:06] <Us3r_Unfriendly> i'm not sure if you'll have much luck with repos
[06:06] <raviepic3> bucky, oh
[06:06] <sorandomname> @col0ur: what version of wine do you use?
[06:06] <ubuser> just one simple command its sad
[06:06] <raviepic3> bucky, guvcview ?
[06:07] <col0ur> sorandomname, i've tested with the unstable 1.3 and the stable 1.2
[06:07] <KM0201> dillon: you make the best reloading equipment in the world, you're my heroes.  ;)
[06:07] <col0ur> both have the same issue
[06:07] <raviepic3> bucky, but the links that they have given to download or commands they have given to install aint working
[06:07] <dillon> LOL
[06:07] <fromano> I just installed ubuntu on an old laptop. In the liveCD, the touchpad worked fine but now, after the install, I can't get the touchpad or a PS2 mouse to work. Can someone help me out?
[06:07] <KM0201> dillon: are you a blue fan?
[06:07] <sorandomname> @col0ur: I don't have problems playing pinball under wine at 640x480 on a display that is 1600x1200 in full screen.
[06:07] <raviepic3> bucky, i mean cinerella
[06:07] <ubuser> getting my sources.list update was fun
[06:07] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: there's a guy on youtube called gotbletu, he made a video on how to use repos from other versions of ubuntu.  otherwise you'll probably have to use firefox to download your programs in order to create your live usb
[06:07] <ubuser> im downloading gparted now
[06:08] <dillon> KM0201: actually, when my parents named me, my dad wanted to name me that spelled this way because of that :P
[06:08] <col0ur> sorandomname, im not sure if its a wine error as much as an error on the OS's part
[06:08] <KM0201> dillon: is that right?... wise dad you have there... :)
[06:08] <bucky> raviepic3, a ppa would be best and then if you didn't like it you could apt-get remove cinerella
[06:08] <CajunTechie> Hey everyone, quick question: friend of mine has a tv station and wants to broadcast their news to mobile phones. Any Linux tools to help with that?

[06:11] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: do you have a software sources in there?
[06:12] <ubuser> but the link was old and it deleted my firefox... so im stuck with epiphany otherwise i would proabably keep 5.1
[06:12] <ubuser> yes i do, im download gedit now
[06:12] <sorandomname> @ubuser: you can download ubuntu 10.10: http://www.ubuntu.com/get-ubuntu/download
[06:12] <ubuser> i mean gparted
[06:12] <ubuser> i got the iso
[06:12] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: you probably have atleast vi or nano on there
[06:12] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: no need to download gedit
[06:13] <gpc> ubuser: stop experimenting, downloading random scripts and Start following instructions given to you by people who have been trying really hard to figure out what it is you want to do.
[06:13] <Us3r_Unfriendly> ubuser: but i could be wrong...i don't know ubuntu 5.10.  it's like a whole different world from where 10.10 is right now
[06:14] <gpc> ubuser: for the past hour I have been watching you go around in circles and you haven't actually done anything suggested.

[06:17] <ubuser> i really hope lubuntu runs better i'll still visit with you guys lawl
[06:17] <jayd3e> anyone know how to download samba3 through apt-get instead of samba4?  b/c every time I do a sudo apt-get install samba, it installs 4
[06:17] <gogo_> v
[06:17] <fromano> @sorandomname: well, I had to install irssi to get on this channel and I also did updates. Maybe it also should be noted that I installed from a 10.04 CD.
[06:18] <gogo_> wow
[06:18] <Us3r_Unfriendly> jayd3e: sudo apt-cache search samba | grep -i samba3
[06:18] <sorandomname> @fromano: Try 10.10 I had issues with video in 10.04.
[06:18] <voglster> i have a dns question via vpn in ubuntu... after i connect resolv.conf has my dns server on my vpn... nslookup hostname.domain.com works.. but ping hostname.domain.com does not.. anyone have any ideas why this might be the case?
[06:18] <gogo_> xin chun ge
[06:18] <Us3r_Unfriendly> jayd3e: see if it's there, i think i heard it isn't
[06:18] <ubuser> The kernel is unable to read the partition tables on the following devices dev/mapper/Ubuntu-root
[06:18] <gogo_> chunge chun ye men
[06:19] <fromano> sorandomname: okay, I might do that. Does anyone else have any ideas before I try that. I have a pretty slow internet connection so it's not that desirable an option.
[06:19] <jayd3e> Us3r_Unfriendly: ill check, why wouldn't it be?  The devs say on the wiki that samba4 shouldn't be used on a production server yet.  So I'm trying to use 3 and I can't? lol
[06:19] <kaushal> KM0201: asterisk
[06:19] <ubuser> i always get screwed
[06:19] <[Adam|Miner]> My installer keeps crashing, any tips for making it work? Core i5 Sandybridge, USB -> SSD
[06:19] <KM0201> kaushal: so just sudo apt-get install asterisk
[06:20] <sorandomname> @fromano: 10.04 had issues for me, and I used 9.10 for a year until 10.10. ;) However, I was able to get the perfect 10 of ubuntu
[06:20] <rallias> how do I route all my outgoing mails through Sendmail through a different email server?
[06:20] <bazhang> [Adam|Miner], tried the alternate installer yet?
[06:20] <Us3r_Unfriendly> jayd3e: i have no idea, that's what i heard someone talking about here.  they could be wrong
[06:21] <[Adam|Miner]> It seems to fail around the point where it starts copying files
[06:21] <[Adam|Miner]> bazhang: How?
[06:21] <jayd3e> Us3r_Unfriendly: yah it isn't there
[06:21] <bazhang> !alternate | [Adam|Miner]
[06:21] <Us3r_Unfriendly> jayd3e: yeah i don't see it either
[06:21] <Us3r_Unfriendly> jayd3e: you might have to see their website
[06:21] <jayd3e> Us3r_Unfriendly: sooooo, any suggestions on how to install samba3?
[06:21] <[Adam|Miner]> So I have to install it through a cli
[06:22] <bazhang> [Adam|Miner], no, a text-based interface
[06:22] <[Adam|Miner]> hmmm
[06:22] <fromano> sorandomname: I suppose I'll try it and see what happens.
[06:22] <raviepic3> bucky, i use ubuntu 10.04 64 bit version
[06:22] <[Adam|Miner]> does it ship on the live disk or do I have to download something else?
[06:22] <rallias> [Adam|Miner] It isn't that painful. Its just your gui installer with less colors.
[06:23] <sorandomname> @Adam Miner: You have do download it
[06:23] <rallias> You have to download something else
[06:23] <Us3r_Unfriendly> jayd3e: http://www.samba.org/
[06:23] <jayd3e> Us3r_Unfriendly: hmmm Im thinking maybe I need to do an apt-get install samba, I may have been doing apt-get install samba4
[06:23] <[Adam|Miner]> Alright, the network is restricted atm, so I'll have to try more tommorrow
[06:23] <rallias> @Adam Miner: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download
[06:24] <Us3r_Unfriendly> sudo apt-cache show samba     says it's "samba 2:3.5.4~dfsg-1ubuntu8.2"
[06:24] <jayd3e> Us3r_Unfriendly: would that solve my problem?
[06:24] <[Adam|Miner]> Funny how I have installed fine on my other 4 machines, but this one threw a huge fuss
[06:24] <raviepic3> how do i find mine is meverick or something else ?
[06:24] <jayd3e> Us3r_Unfriendly: o ic
[06:24] <raviepic3> i use 10.04 64 bit version
[06:24] <Us3r_Unfriendly> raviepic3: what's the question again?
[06:24] <Datz> Hi, I have several audio outputs on my motherboard. The motherboard came with a app/driver for windows where I could control each port. I find I cannot with ubuntu's default tools/driver. Is there something else I could try?
[06:24] <KM0201> raviepic3: lsb_release -a   in a terminal will tell you what version you use
[06:24] <KM0201> raviepic3: uname -a    will tell you whether its 64 or 32 bit
[06:25] <rallias> Adam: Trust me, happens all the time. Its just that people try to help the people with breaking installs and ignore us who need help setting up email servers.
[06:25] <Us3r_Unfriendly> raviepic3: also "cat /etc/issue" will help too
[06:25] <raviepic3> whoa i have maverick
[06:25] <goddard> is there a ubuntu server channel?
[06:25] <milamber> goddard: #ubuntu-server
[06:25] <KM0201> raviepic3: is that a surprise?
[06:25] <[Adam|Miner]> Email servers :X, have fun! (Also, thanks)
[06:25] <Ten-Eight> #ubuntu-server
[06:26] <raviepic3> KM0201, yes i thought i havd 10.04 but its 10.10 :)
[06:26] <raviepic3> KM0201++
[06:26] <KM0201> lol
[06:26] <Aranel> I'm going to upgrade my PC from 2gig to 6gig ram, is it safe/possible to switch my ubuntu from 32-bit to 64-bit? without formatting or anything :)
[06:26] <meltingwacks> are there any good lisp IDEs for ubuntu
[06:26] <Us3r_Unfriendly> KM0201: no, it would be a surprise if he replied:  whoa i'm using 20.04
[06:26] <KM0201> Us3r_Unfriendly: :)
[06:26] <rallias> 20.04?
[06:26] <raviepic3> lol
[06:27] <Us3r_Unfriendly> rallias: futuristic ubuntu
[06:27] <Us3r_Unfriendly> jayd3e: did you find samba3?
[06:28] <alteregod> how to boot from root with btrfs w/o additional stuff?
[06:28] <Us3r_Unfriendly> alteregod: btrfs??
[06:28] <alteregod> yes
[06:28] <alteregod> because SSD is in use
[06:28] <rallias> Us3r_Unfriendly: Yumm... brain transfers. Finally computers will know why people like doughnuts.
[06:28] <PeterLiu>  a whole new filesystem for ubuntu?
[06:29] <[thor]> Datz: have you changed to a profile that uses all the outs? --> http://uppix.net/8/8/9/3d466ee5ea8ce8b43730f4e5adc05.png
[06:29] <Us3r_Unfriendly> alteregod: i might be the only person here that doesn't know what btrfs is
[06:29] <jayd3e> Us3r_Unfriendly: I think that is samba3.  The version number is 3.5.4
[06:29] <Us3r_Unfriendly> jayd3e: like from the site
[06:29] <Us3r_Unfriendly> jayd3e: do they offer a ppa?
[06:29] <rallias> alteregod: Any particular reason you're using an unstable partition scheme? I don't even know if its supported by GRUB yet.
[06:29] <jayd3e> Us3r_Unfriendly:  yah, but ill just probably dl the package and install it manually
[06:30] <Datz> [thor]: maybe. They all work, I'd just like to be able to control them separately
[06:30] <Us3r_Unfriendly> jayd3e: sounds good. hope it works out
[06:30] <[thor]> Datz: have you read up on the JACK audio system?
[06:30] <jayd3e> Us3r_Unfriendly:  thanks man
[06:30] <Us3r_Unfriendly> jayd3e: i think i used samba once.  i have no use for it
[06:30] <[thor]> Datz: it provides more routing control than the PulseAudio system
[06:31] <Datz> [thor]: I have not
[06:31] <milamber> jayd3e: if samba3 is what you are looking for and it is in the repos, why not use it?
[06:31] <Datz> [thor]: I'll take a look. thanks
[06:31] <[thor]> Datz: JACK is useful for sound/music production, and can be co-installed with Pulse
[06:31] <alteregod> well if it won't work i can add something like a ext4 parttition for /boot
[06:31] <Us3r_Unfriendly> jayd3e: no problem
[06:31] <jayd3e> milamber: going to
[06:31] <Us3r_Unfriendly> milamber: 'cuz it's not in the repos
[06:31] <rallias> alteregod: I'd recommend ext2 for /boot, but yeah thats fine.
[06:31] <[thor]> !jack
[06:32] <alteregod> ext2 has no journal
[06:32] <[thor]> hmm, guess not
[06:32] <milamber> jayd3e: what version of ubuntu?
[06:32] <alteregod> a fs w/o journal is crap at all
[06:32] <kaushal> KM0201: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2011-February/239383.html
[06:32] <Datz> [thor]: is there much configuring?
[06:33] <Aranel> I'm going to upgrade my PC from 2gig to 6gig ram, is it safe/possible to switch my ubuntu from 32-bit to 64-bit? without formatting or anything :)
[06:33] <bazhang> Aranel, full reinstall needed
[06:33] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Aranel: no, i don't think it works that way...
[06:33] <Datz> [thor]: or can I just install a package and ta-da.. browse through options?
[06:33] <KM0201> kaushal: dunno, try running sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade
[06:33] <KM0201> then run the command again
[06:33] <rallias> Aranel: Formatting, yes. Reinstalling, no
[06:34] <rallias> Aranel: dpkg will bitch and moan.
[06:34] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Aranel: in my opinion 32 is 32 and 64 is 64, they don't mix the two when giving the option to update
[06:34] <KM0201> kaushal: you got something wrong there in your source list for sure.
[06:34] <[thor]> datz: i got it to work with minimal knowledge of the OS. the routing application is pretty straight-forward. one side has output ( be it a physical input port, or an applications audio output ), and one has input ( physical output ports, or application inputs )
[06:34] <Aranel> d'oh :| but I'm using the same system for 3 years (and changed 2 computers in the process), I can't reinstall everything from start, It would take ages :(
[06:35] <[thor]> datz: you draw a line from "Firefox out 1/2" to "Soundcard Output 1/2" and it routes that signal
[06:35] <Us3r_Unfriendly> rallias: i've used dpkg to force flash 32bit installer to work on my 64 machine...along with echo'ing a file to my /etc/ to make it work with less crashes
[06:35] <milamber> Aranel: google for installing PAE enabled kernel. running 32 bit progs uses more ram w/ 64bit os iirc
[06:35] <Datz> [thor]: cool. I'll have a look. thanks
[06:35] <xangua> !pae | milamber Aranel
[06:36] <rallias> Us3r_Unfriendly: You must teach me the secrets of the jedi
[06:36] <[thor]> datz: beware however; the linux audio system is murky and filled with dispair :D
[06:36] <[thor]> despair even
[06:36] <Us3r_Unfriendly> thanks xangua, i'll try that next time when i go back to a 32 bit.  i mean that
[06:36] <Datz> [thor]: ha, ok :P
[06:36] <juniour> hey i waan to connect my net via mobile via bluetooth but i cnat can anyone here to help me out
[06:36] <Aranel> gonna check PAE too, so, no ways to install 64-bit on my system, instead of starting from the day 1, correct?
[06:36] <Us3r_Unfriendly> rallias: not much of a jedi, just a hobo with a computer
[06:37] <Us3r_Unfriendly> rallias: hold up, i'll pull it up
[06:37] <rallias> kk tyvm
[06:38] <juniour> hey i waan to connect my net via mobile via bluetooth but i  cnat can anyone here to help me o
[06:38] <lanks> anyone know of an easy tutorial for setting up email with virtual mailboxes (imap/smtp)?
[06:38] <Us3r_Unfriendly> rallias: "sudo dpkg --force-architecture "file name"
[06:39] <Aranel> rallias: can't I backup /* , reformat my hdd, and copy it over?
[06:39] <Us3r_Unfriendly> rallias: "sudo dpkg --install --force-architecture "file name" i think that's right
[06:39] <Us3r_Unfriendly> sorry
[06:39] <rallias> Aranel: What us3r_unfriendly just said
[06:40] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Aranel: i'd just backup your ~/
[06:40] <[thor]> Aranel: /var, /home (including hidden folders)
[06:40] <Aranel> It would remove tons of apps then, and make me download them all again :|
[06:40] <Us3r_Unfriendly> [thor]: why /var/?? that's mostly logs
[06:41] <[thor]> :D and apt cache
[06:41] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Aranel: but using the force command for dpkg might have it's risks
[06:42] <Aranel> Us3r_Unfriendly: how I'm going to use it for entire system, instead of one package?
[06:42] <milamber> !clone | Aranel
[06:42] <abel_nightshade> unfortunately i am new to ubuntu but i am having trouble getting my wireless card to install so i am using my windows partition
[06:42] <[thor]> milamber: thanks for that!
[06:43] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Aranel: just go to a 32 or 64 bit os, will make life easier
[06:43] <abel_nightshade> can anyone help with that?
[06:44] <[thor]> abel_nightshade: most wireless cards should work without needing to use the accompanying "driver cd"
[06:44] <Us3r_Unfriendly> abel_nightshade: i'm currently working on that type of issue with my girlfriend's dad's pc.  normally i would say use "ndisgtk" but that doesn't work for everything
[06:44] <Us3r_Unfriendly> abel_nightshade: ** use "gksudo ndisgtk"
[06:45] <abel_nightshade> the wireless card i am having issues with is a broadcom 43xx
[06:45] <lanoxx> does anyone know how i use autogen.sh and PKG_CONFIG_PATH and how it relates to the --prefix option
[06:45] <Aranel> Us3r_Unfriendly: maybe, but installing the system from day 1 is not a preffered way for me. Looks like I'm going to stick to 32-bit for a long time.
[06:45] <Us3r_Unfriendly> why do you need 64 bit apps?
[06:46] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Aranel: ubuntu is great for having 32 bit programs in their repos...
[06:46] <Aranel> to use 6gig of ram, looks like PAE is an alternative to it but 64-bit is a better way to handle this I guess.
[06:46] <Aranel> doesn't it have the same for 64-bit?
[06:46] <[thor]> you don't need to uninstall to use PAE, i switched about 2 months after install
[06:46] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Aranel: i'd say use what the other suggested.
[06:46] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Aranel: that's what i'm going to do when i get some free time
[06:46] <[thor]> it's like any other kernel upgrade
[06:47] <Aranel> Us3r_Unfriendly: why? does 64-bit any disadvantages I don't know?
[06:47] <[thor]> Us3r_Unfriendly: sorry, no /msg on this server
[06:48] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Aranel: personally i like linux in a 32 bit flavor, but that's me.  Some people want higher performance (which i have noticed -none-).
[06:49] <Us3r_Unfriendly> [thor]: guess i'll never know then
[06:49] <Aranel> [thor]: looks easy to do =) Would it perform the same as 64-bit or are there any disadvantages with PAE? (Virtual Address Extension is one of them, I don't know why I need it anyway)
[06:49] <[thor]> Us3r_Unfriendly: all i got was a message saying your incoming was blocked
[06:50] <[thor]> Aranel: i've not tried a 64bit system for any great length of time.
[06:50] <Us3r_Unfriendly> [thor]: well i can't ask you in here, never mind
[06:50] <[thor]> Us3r_Unfriendly: #thor-
[06:51] <Aranel> Us3r_Unfriendly: well, Isn't it unneccesary to downgrade to 32-bit, when you already using 64-bit and It's okay?
[06:51] <tsimpson> there is technically some performance reduction with PAE, but in practice it's negligible
[06:51] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Aranel: for me i notice on my machine that ubuntu runs smoother with a 32bit version, due to my specs
[06:54] <Aranel> Thank you Us3r_Unfriendly, [thor], tsimpson and xangua :) I changed my mind and decided to stay on 32-bit and use PAE instead =)
[06:55]  * Aranel wouldn't upgrade his ram to 6gb if Mozilla optimized their Firefox :| It's consuming at least %25~ of my RAM.
[06:56] <raviepic3> bucky, http://pastebin.com/u31vapE4
[06:56] <raviepic3> installation error
[06:56] <raviepic3> please help
[06:56] <Jordan_U> Aranel: Have you tried Chrome?
[06:57] <Jordan_U> raviepic3: Try running "sudo apt-get -f install".
[06:57] <Aranel> Jordan_U: once, a long time ago and I didn't like it because of it's lack of addons.
[06:57] <Aranel> Jordan_U: do you prefer it?
[06:57] <Jordan_U> Aranel: Yes.
[06:58] <Aranel> Jordan_U: well It's the only reasonable alternative to FF, so I should try it :)
[06:58] <Jordan_U> Aranel: Especially the fact that when flash crashes it doesn't bring down Chrome.
[06:59] <[thor]> just the frowny face of doom
[06:59] <Aranel> Jordan_U: It also doesn't bring down Firefox on 3.6.13
[07:00] <Jordan_U> Aranel: Good to know. I may have to look at Firefox again as well ;)
[07:00] <M-sprite> conky window problem. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10417058#post10417058
[07:01] <Aranel> well I think It's a good browser overall, but It just can't handle many tabs (many as in hundred)
[07:01] <raviepic3> Jordan_U, yeah done, it asked me a confirmation and i gave Y it downloaded and completed
[07:01] <Aranel> starts to consume lots of RAM (not a big deal) and a big amount of CPU (I think this one is ridiculous)
[07:02] <raviepic3> so now il try installing cinerella ?
[07:02] <Screw> good moorning
[07:03] <milamber> raviepic3: i used the akirad ppa and it works great
[07:04] <tripelbb> re database: can anyone tell me what to use? anyone with experience here. (Never used Access but that's the comparison I suppose)
[07:05] <bullgard4> How can I search for a certain string in all notes contents of Nautilus > right-click on a filename> Notes?
[07:05] <Aranel> tripelbb: database? why not something like SQLite?
[07:05] <tripelbb> Jordan_U, Aranel, Firefox doesnt have separate actions in tabs so FF must w.a.i.t. for all tabs to finish before you can look at your choice of tab.
[07:06] <Screw> I would like to ask a question. Can I backup my ubuntu with partimage on SystemRescuecd and restore to an new empty HDD? So partimage can create MBR and partitions?
[07:07] <bullgard4> tripelbb: I am using Kexi and Base as well very often. Both have their deficiencies.
[07:07] <tripelbb> Jordan_U, Aranel, BTW chrome every so often takes up all the RAM and must be restarted. But when flash? (it reports shockwave in youtube) crashes you can just reload the tab.
[07:08] <tripelbb> I've got a speed of 28 ogen crows
[07:08] <Aranel> tripelbb: same feature is also present on Firefox, you just reload the tab instead of app crash.
[07:08] <tripelbb> sorry wrong place
[07:08] <Ugons> is there a way to make it so that if I tap twice on my trackpad it doesn't act as holding down the mouse key?
[07:08] <tripelbb> Aranel, I've never had it crash in FF, heh
[07:08] <Ugons> left mouse button*
[07:09] <Ugons> word choice fail right there
[07:10] <tripelbb> bullgard4 can you tell me more about Kexi and Base. I have heard of MySql too. I actually know very little. (but I did student-teach a class in data structures a while back, for CS majors)
[07:11] <Aranel> tripelbb: you're lucky, mine was crashing 10 times a day, and It still crashes once in a week to make me remember why Adobe sucks.
[07:13] <ktwo> i tried to connect via ubuntu file explorer via SSH, however when i copy a file it seems that the file is first copied to the local machine, can i force him to do all operation only on remote site without using the console (due to the gui ease of use)#
[07:13] <Aranel> tripelbb: I guess (I'm not experienced at all) MySql, SQLite and their kind are more advanced and "low-level" choices, afaik they don't ship with a GUI, you install one. Kexi is much more Access-like, easy-to-use but not  awesome as MySql.
[07:13] <tsimpson> tripelbb: you can use SQLite for a simple no-configuration database, SQLite stores the database in a file and doesn't require a server to be running. there's MySQL and Postgres SQL for more advanced features, but they require some more configuration and have tighter security features
[07:15] <bullgard4> tripelbb: I could. But I won't. I suggest that you use the usual Ubuntu information means to get an idea about both programs. If you have done this (your homework) I will be glad to answer your specific questions.
[07:15] <gremmachook> I can't find this package libgles2-mesa-dev in Lynx.
[07:15] <gremmachook> I tried downloading th .deb separately, but it has too many dependencies.
[07:17] <A_J> o/ all, my deluge bit-torrent client, is giving an error, not connected..
[07:17] <A_J> and i'm unable to connect via the local daemon
[07:18] <jmad980> A_J: might need to start the daemon
[07:18] <jmad980> hmm
[07:18] <jmad980> looks like you already knew that :P
[07:18] <ktwo> if i want to move all files/directorys in the current folder to a new folder in the current directory what must i do ?   mv * -r /path/newdirectory/  ?
[07:18]  * jmad980 watches his lag meter rise
[07:18] <A_J> it's giving an error, unable to start daemon
[07:19] <jmad980> ktwo: just `mv /path/to/folder /path/to/destination`
[07:19] <tsimpson> ktwo: it would be easier to move all the files/directories to a directory outside the current path, then move that directory
[07:19] <tsimpson> it shouldn't be disk intensive unless you are moving between partitions
[07:20] <ktwo> mhh okay
[07:20] <jmad980> ._.
[07:20] <tsimpson> otherwise you'd need to do some globbing (pattern matching)
[07:20] <tripelbb> .google ubuntu data base
[07:20]  * jmad980 prolly misread that anyways
[07:21] <tripelbb> aranel, adobe sucks has what to do with firefox crashing??
[07:21]  * jmad980 hands tripelbb a !
[07:21]  * jmad980 crawls back into his hole
[07:21] <tsimpson> the bot does not have a !google command, it's not difficult to just open a new browser tab and search yourself ;)
[07:22] <Aranel> tripelbb: huh?
[07:22] <tripelbb> !google ubuntu data base
[07:22] <tsimpson> tripelbb: ^ read
[07:22] <Aranel> !lol
[07:22] <Aranel> ouch.
[07:22] <tripelbb> yea tsimpson I read it, goes to http://google.com to do it right
[07:23] <glaceman> hi guys
[07:23] <Ugons> omg you're so uptight lol
[07:23] <Ugons> eh eh?
[07:23] <glaceman> i just reinstalled ubuntu 10.10 and i used to have  tool to automount my ntfs drive, not talking here about ntfs-config, anybody can help
[07:24] <ejv> glaceman: add a line in /etc/fstab
[07:24] <ktwo> is there a tool i can use from my ubuntu box (with gui) to synchronize things on a remote box ? (like through ssh) ?
[07:24] <glaceman> ejv: my drive automount on boot, but i need to click on it first, so shortcuts on desktop link to it could work, if u know what i mean
[07:24] <ejv> ktwo: use the ubuntu "connect to server" tool in the start menu
[07:24] <ejv> or err applications menu, whatever its called...
[07:24] <tripelbb> there is NOTHING for beginners who dont have a particular DB in mind. I'm off to ubuntuforums to pose my question. Thanks y'all.
[07:25] <ejv> tripelbb: bye
[07:25] <ktwo> ive noticed that this transfers files first to the local machine , is this true? at least the speed was terrible
[07:25] <MrEgg964> Hi, I'm looking to mirror a remote Asterisk server to a local duplicate server. What should I look into? rsyncd? drdb?
[07:26] <ejv> ktwo: 'speed' is pretty relative, a function of your local network load, disk i/o load, throughput your disk can actually support, etc.
[07:27] <ktwo> yea but see when i copy a file via ssh shell it is almost instantly it feels like only the command is being passed, but when i do this via the ubuntu gui it seems that the file is cached locally
[07:27] <glaceman> in my sources list i have lb.ubuntu etc.... luxemburgish stuffs, can someone paste to me please the english version of it
[07:29] <ejv> ktwo, shouldn't no
[07:30] <ktwo> it says.. preparing to copy.. and it takes a loong time and i even see a KB/s progress like 15KB/s
[07:31] <ktwo> is it correct "sftp for <ip>" in the top status bar, or maybe is it using a wrong protocol?
[07:31] <[thor]> glaceman: i think it is the same only without the country code
[07:32] <glaceman> thor can i have a source liste pasted please into paste bin so i can paste into my own
[07:32] <glaceman> so i can change that lb.. i think it's en, or de
[07:32] <glaceman> something liek that
[07:33] <ejv> ktwo: not sure, just going from memory, if you ask me nautilus is garbage, i suggest for any big file transfers, you become comfortable performing these jobs on the command line
[07:33] <[thor]> glaceman: http://ubuntulady.wordpress.com/2010/06/07/the-ubuntu-sources-list-generator-is-now-available-for-maverick/
[07:33] <ejv> desktop environments in general aren't linux's finest selling point...
[07:33] <glaceman> [thor]: thanks
[07:34] <ktwo> well ok basically i got it confirmed i retried and monitored the traffic it actually COPIED the remote file first to my machine and back to the remote one
[07:34] <A_J> can som1 help me, my ubuntu has become unstable, it keeps freezing and hanging..
[07:34] <A_J> it happened after a failed install of an opera .deb
[07:34] <A_J> any1 ?
[07:34] <ktwo> but id like to have a graphical way for the sake of usability XD there must be something
[07:35] <ktwo> ive tried with midnight commander on the remote machine but the usability also isnt that great
[07:35] <glaceman> [thor]: does this really makes a difference ?
[07:35] <glaceman> i mean the source list
[07:36] <ejv> ktwo: looked at gftp or filezilla?
[07:36] <MACscr> anyone know of a Jing alternative (easy screencasting) that works for ubuntu? i need something that i can instantly save to the web
[07:36] <ejv> ktwo: both clients should support ssh2
[07:36] <A_J> can som1 help me..
[07:36] <[thor]> glaceman: choose United Kingdom as your country, or USA, or Canada
[07:36] <Flannel> !screencast | MACscr
[07:36] <ktwo> ill check them, the most important thing is that file operations are being handled completely on remote site
[07:36] <ejv> !patience | A_J
[07:37] <Jordan_U> ktwo: Could you file a bug report against sshfs (or whatever tool you're using)?
[07:37] <glaceman> [thor]: what about all the other bunch of options
[07:37] <A_J> i searched
[07:37] <ejv> not an excuse to not be patient, keep searching
[07:37] <A_J> k
[07:37] <ktwo> a bug report for what? you mean nautilus?
[07:37] <hdtdi> hello. when i perform find / -name core i get fair amount of results. is it safe to delete them all ? i mean the core files are not important to me right? nothing depends on them
[07:37] <[thor]> glaceman: depends on which of those you have installed, or are interested in installing
[07:37] <ktwo> i dont know if it is a bug maybe it is intended =)
[07:37] <My-Computer> i get initramfs message in lucid looks like just before it almost boots what should i do
[07:38] <glaceman> what version are u usung [thor]
[07:38] <[thor]> glaceman: 10.10
[07:38] <glaceman> can't i just copy and paste urs
[07:38] <Jordan_U> alteregod: You'll need grub from natty to have /boot on btrfs.
[07:38] <alteregod> well
[07:39] <glaceman> there's those ubuntu branches, many think i can check from and updates, i don't understand quite well
[07:39] <ejv> A_J: might I add, you ask terrible questions; if you're having multiple problems that appear to be unrelated, ask about one of them at a time. also include recent changes to your system, what you did that caused an error, and most importantly any error messages themselves. ask good questions and you get good results.
[07:39] <alteregod> ok i will grubdate from natty
[07:39] <Bruce_Wayne> Does anyone know how to dual boot ubuntu + Fedora + (along with windows) ?
[07:39] <bullgard4> How can I search for a certain string in all Notes contents of Nautilus > right-click on a filename> Notes?
[07:39] <A_J> ejv, during an installation of opera.deb, it hung... so i restarted .. and since then it's become unstable
[07:40] <glaceman> does anyone knowss a GUI tool to auto-mount disks on startup ?
[07:40] <[thor]> glaceman: http://pastebin.com/02kR0PPt
[07:40] <A_J> unstable as in it freezes and hangs
[07:40] <bullgard4> !dualboot | Bruce_Wayne
[07:40] <Jordan_U> Bruce_Wayne: Easiest way is to install them in the order Windows then Fedora then Ubuntu. Ubuntu's grub2 will detect both Fedora and windows automagically.
[07:40] <Bruce_Wayne> glaceman: mountmanager
[07:40] <ejv> Bruce_Wayne: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[07:41] <ejv> A_J: pastebin.com copies of any relevant syslogs, dmesg, etc. for people to view. you'll have to narrow down what broke.
[07:42] <A_J> ejv, how can i see recent logs
[07:42] <Bruce_Wayne> Jordan_U: Sweet! Thanks. :D
[07:42] <alteregod> now i got a 14tb fileserver with 16 drives and stuff with two raid5 sets and stuff
[07:42] <p_S> Does anyone know what directory progams are installed on?
[07:42] <Jordan_U> Bruce_Wayne: You're welcome.
[07:43] <ejv> A_J: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxLogFiles
[07:43] <ktwo> ok i read something about this connect to server stuff in nautilus, it seems that it uses SFTP and SFTP by design does not copy remotely but merely it can only read and write from the current directory (something like that)
[07:43] <Jordan_U> !fhs | p_S
[07:43] <My-Computer> i get initramfs message in lucid looks like just before it almost boots what should i do
[07:44] <Jordan_U> p_S: Why do you ask?
[07:44] <ktwo> so maybe i must search for a graphical tool which actually "generates" shell commands , do you think there is something like that?
[07:44] <glaceman> Bruce_Wayne: i can see my drive automounted when the system boot,  but i have shortcuts on the desktop that dosen;t work, unless i usually click 1 time on the hard disk partition first
[07:44] <ejv> ktwo: better to bite the bullet and simply learn the commands, might I suggest 'rsync'
[07:44] <endeavormac> how can i prevent ubuntu from automatically mounting a usb drive?
[07:44] <ktwo> thanks ill check rsync then too :) maybe easier than cp
[07:44] <P1P3> -0-
[07:45] <p_S> i need to know where evolution is kept so i can point a mail notification program to it.
[07:45] <ejv> ktwo: rsync is extremely powerful, as you will read
[07:45] <A_J> @ ejv gedit has not been able to detect the character encoding.
[07:45] <A_J> Please check that you are not trying to open a binary file.
[07:45] <A_J> Select a character encoding from the menu and try again.
[07:45] <ejv> A_J: which file are you trying to read?
[07:45] <Jordan_U> p_S: Running "which evolution" will tell you that evolution is at /usr/bin/evolution.
[07:45] <p_S> thanks
[07:46] <Jordan_U> p_S: You're welcome.
[07:46] <ktwo> ok ill read the rsync doc now :D it will take a while <.<
[07:47] <Bruce_Wayne> glaceman:  mountmanager worked for me everytime. I have no idea about for situation. sorry
[07:47] <A_J|> damn
[07:47] <A_J|> ejv IT RESTARTED
[07:47] <A_J|> and the screen is black now :(

[07:49] <A_J|> what should i do now :*(
[07:49] <ejv> A_J|: no idea, sounds like the drive has gone bad or maybe your system is overheating; can you get a temperature readouts to rule out the latter

[08:17] <phonex01>  i majde an ubuntu copy using remastersys but when i boot it its boot as live CD and i dont have any icon to install .
[08:18] <bullgard4> man badblocks: "badblocks is used to search for bad blocks on a device (usually a disk partition)." What does the program »badblocks« consider a "bad block"?
[08:20] <phonex01> guys i need help
[08:20] <mbvpixies78> Can someone help me with using "places" to connect to a windows share?
[08:20] <tsimpson> bullgard4: usually a block that can not be read from
[08:20] <phonex01> how can i install the copy of live CD
[08:20] <phonex01> i dont have install icon on the desktop

[08:21] <bullgard4> tsimpson: Why do you say: "Usually"?
[08:22] <tsimpson> bullgard4: because there is also an option to do a write test, so in that case it would be a block that can not be written to
[08:22] <tsimpson> (the write test will erase all data on the device though)

[08:35] <lorddelta> I wondered if anyone would be able to check if my ubuntu is screwing itself over....
[08:35] <bonjoyee> mbvpixies78: ok then try connecting directly..i mean specify the share name in the "connect to servers" window
[08:35] <civixier> Help! How do I prevent npviewer from starting up?
[08:35] <raviepic3> Jordan_U, yeah done, it asked me a confirmation and i gave Y it downloaded and completed
[08:35] <raviepic3> so now il try installing cinerella ?
[08:36] <mbvpixies78> bonjoyee:  share name is just the name of the folder, right?
[08:36] <Jordan_U> raviepic3: Yes.
[08:36] <bonjoyee> brokendatapoint: apt-cache show packagename
[08:36] <raviepic3> Jordan_U, its already installed ! !  apt-get -f install installs the error packages ?
[08:36] <bonjoyee> mbvpixies78: yes
[08:36] <raviepic3> Jordan_U, its already installed ! !  apt-get -f install installs the packages which were stopped due to errors ? ?
[08:37] <lorddelta> I've been having problems with...movies files opening. Thought it was vlc/Mplayer, so I was going to install the latest version which is supposedly available in Ubuntu 10.10. My ubuntu already claims to be 10.10, but the command update-manager -d tells me I should install 10.10...and a ton of package upgrades.
[08:37] <Jordan_U> raviepic3: Yes.
[08:37] <lorddelta> Meanwhile the system seems to be losing functionality as we speak...
[08:37] <VirusTB> !OT >> Apple Is Evil! Boycott The iPad! - Written From My iPad" http://tcrn.ch/gxpDjk by @parislemon
[08:37] <mbvpixies78> bonjoyee:  it's asking for username, domain and password...  is domain FQDN minus hostname?
[08:37] <raviepic3> Jordan_U++ thank you
[08:37] <lorddelta> ...if this isn't the right place for this, lemme know.
[08:37] <Jordan_U> raviepic3: You're welcome.
[08:37] <raviepic3> Jordan_U, but there wont be any side effects right ? installing by force ?
[08:38] <skilz> how can I limit my interenet bandwidth Im sharing over eth0?
[08:38] <bonjoyee> bonjoyee: dont think you need that..unless it asks for..
[08:38] <raviepic3> Jordan_U, any specific reasons why it gave me error earlier ?
[08:38] <skilz> my girlfriend is hogging all the bandwidth
[08:38] <Jordan_U> raviepic3: It did not install by force, it just grabbed the dependencies that were needed.
[08:38] <civixier> Ah, never mind. Just had do install flashblock i chrome to control when npviewer is starting.
[08:38] <raviepic3> whoa cool
[08:38] <bonjoyee> mbvpixies78: i mean try without it first..
[08:38] <VirusTB> skilz, get her on the wifi? or put a cap limit on what ever programs she's downloading with
[08:38] <col0ur> Is there a way to get VLC to integrate into the Sound menu on Maverick like Rhythmbox?
[08:38] <raviepic3> Jordan_U, so how do i do it if i were has to install cinrealla without errors ?
[08:38] <Jordan_U> raviepic3: There were packages which needed to be installed which were not avaialable to dpkg. dpkg on its own never downloads packages, apt does that.
[08:39] <VirusTB> When is hte next Ubuntu release coming out?
[08:39] <mrmist> skilz: you don't need a technical solution to that, just talk to your gf and get her to download less stuff
[08:39] <raviepic3> Jordan_U, like the first time i want to install cinrella wwithout errors how do i do it ?
[08:39] <mbvpixies78> bonjoyee:  it's asking for workgroup...  is this something I have to set up in Ubuntu?
[08:39] <col0ur> Is there a way to get VLC to integrate into the Sound menu on Maverick like Rhythmbox?
[08:39] <Jordan_U> raviepic3: Use "gdebi" instead of dpkg.
[08:40] <bonjoyee> mbvpixies78: for a start..just enter the ip and the share name...nothing more
[08:40] <Jordan_U> raviepic3: But there is actually nothing wrong with using dpkg, getting errors, then using "sudo apt-get -f install".
[08:40] <VirusTB> !ask | col0ur
[08:41] <raviepic3> Jordan_U, understood thank you again
[08:41] <mbvpixies78> bonjoyee, When I do that, it asks for username, domain and password and whatever I put in there, it fails
[08:41] <Jordan_U> raviepic3: You're welcome.
[08:42] <axsel> I need someone who has despotify
[08:42] <bonjoyee> mbvpixies78: well..then thats an issue on your windows side...u need to setup file sharing there
[08:42] <mbvpixies78> bonjoyee, ok, will double check
[08:43] <KirkMcDonald> How can I find out when a package was last updated?
[08:44] <bonjoyee> KirkMcDonald: may be check the changelog?
[08:44] <KirkMcDonald> bonjoyee: The package itself would have a changelog?
[08:44] <mbvpixies78> bonjoyee, I se now--  Windows no longer sees the Ubuntu computer for some reason
[08:44] <bonjoyee> KirkMcDonald: yes..it has.
[08:45] <KirkMcDonald> bonjoyee: Where would I find that?
[08:45] <bonjoyee> KirkMcDonald: have synaptic package manager installed?
[08:45] <KirkMcDonald> bonjoyee: It is a headless machine.
[08:46] <bonjoyee> KirkMcDonald: also do you mean updated upstream or in ubuntu?
[08:46] <paroh> sandy bridge second generation chipset are with a flaw
[08:46] <insmod> sound card? <KirkMcDonald>
[08:46] <brokendatapoint> bonjoyee: thank you
[08:46] <ubuntu> Hey guys.....
[08:46] <KirkMcDonald> bonjoyee: In Ubuntu.
[08:47] <KirkMcDonald> bonjoyee: I ask out of mere curiosity. I noticed that the version of mplayer I have installed was released two days ago.
[08:47] <bonjoyee> KirkMcDonald: for cli theres "sudo aptitude  <changelog packagename>"
[08:48] <KirkMcDonald> bonjoyee: Ah, there we are.
[08:48] <KirkMcDonald> Okay, that is a little clearer.
[08:48] <bonjoyee> KirkMcDonald: its sudo aptitude changelog <packagename>
[08:48] <KirkMcDonald> Apparently, when the package says versiob 1.0rc4, that's not the same thing that mplayer itself means.
[08:48] <KirkMcDonald> version*
[08:50] <ubuntu> hey guyssssss
[08:50] <insmod> KirkMcDonald: then there are 2 installed
[08:50] <chupacabra> what
[08:50] <KirkMcDonald> insmod: Pardon?
[08:50] <bonjoyee> !ask | ubuntu
[08:51] <insmod> KirkMcDonald: if there is a version coflict that usually means 2 installes
[08:51] <chupacabra> we aint got time for you to ask to ask?
[08:51] <KirkMcDonald> insmod: There is no version conflict as such.
[08:51] <cherva> can anyone solve an issue for me.. I have a server ubuntu 10.04 forwarding ports to another machine and if I am outside of his network i can see the ports are open, but when I am connected to the internet behind the server (on his internel network) I cant see the ports .....
[08:52] <insmod> KirkMcDonald: sorry i thought you said mplayer sees one version but apptitude reports another
[08:52] <ubuntu> hey......huys
[08:52] <ubuntu> i need some help
[08:52] <chupacabra> i have conflicts but i need to update/upgrade but im on stolen wireless and all my installing would raise attention.
[08:52] <KirkMcDonald> insmod: Apt and the version of mplayer which is installed are in complete agreement.
[08:52] <ubuntu> i m using xubuntu livd cd
[08:53] <ubuntu> and not knowing ho to explore drives
[08:53] <insmod> KirkMcDonald: i see -- so what is the problem
[08:53] <KirkMcDonald> insmod: My confusion was the fact that the version which has been in apt since July is 1.0rc4, and the mplayer website has that version as being released two days ago.

[08:57] <bonjoyee> lahwran: in gui?
[08:58] <lahwran> bonjoyee: what part of it in gui?
[08:58] <Jordan_U> KirkMcDonald: What is the exact version number of the package you are referring to? If it has a '~' after it that means that it's not yet the final release, and should be replaced by a package with the same version number but no '~'.
[08:58] <insmod> KirkMcDonald: so the ne ubuntu 'binary' is old source
[08:58] <raviepic3> need help with cinerella ^
[08:58] <glaceman> bonjoyee: supposdly ntfs , and it's mounted right now

[09:11] <arimbun> recently my ubuntu internet connection stopped working
[09:11] <arimbun> even though the internet is connected
[09:11] <arimbun> but ping doesn't work
[09:12] <arimbun> any ideas?
[09:12] <insmod> dmj726: sudo /usr/bin/apt-get install xxxxxxx
[09:12] <ChuSiang> dmj726: only keyin apt-get install
[09:12] <bonjoyee> glaceman: hmmm...then unmount the partition from terminal...sudo umount /dev/sdXX
[09:12] <dmj726> ChuSiang: That works fine
[09:13] <arimbun> recently my ubuntu internet connection stopped working
[09:13] <bonjoyee> glaceman: and sudo ntfslabel /dev/sdaXX [label]

[09:13] <residentgrey> hola, i run xubuntu 9.10 still, my desktop gets a second one over it now, only showing removable devices instead of the actual desktop with the trashcan and all that, and i haven't a clue how that happened, or more importantly how to fix it, i tried to 'google' answers but I don't know the right terms to search under, PLZ HALP
[09:13] <FloodBot2> arimbun: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:13] <residentgrey> i am a nub
[09:14] <ChuSiang> arimbun: you can use "sudo iptables -L"
[09:14] <dmj726> oh, and also sudo /usr/bin/apt-get install xxxxx just worked
[09:14] <ChuSiang> any deny !?
[09:14] <arimbun> oh okay... it's empty
[09:15] <insmod> dmj726: then add path and you are ok
[09:15] <bonjoyee> glaceman: any luck?
[09:15] <dmj726> insmod: How do I get it to work without the /usr/bin?
[09:15] <glaceman> bonjoyee: thanks solved it
[09:15] <insmod> dmj726: add it to .profile
[09:15] <bonjoyee> glaceman: from terminal?
[09:15] <glaceman> yes
[09:15] <arimbun> this is weird... cos it was working on fresh install. now it doesn't, and i don't remember doing any update
[09:15] <glaceman> bonjoyee: from terminal
[09:15] <glaceman> let me restart to see if everything's ok
[09:16] <danny_> bonjoyee, I can pin windows from ubuntu and see it, but can't connect.  Windows doesn't see any of my linux boxes though sharing is set up
[09:16] <Inferus> sounds like samba isn't set up properly danielck
[09:16] <Inferus> danny_*
[09:17] <danny_> Inferus:  look into smb.conf?
[09:17] <bonjoyee> danny_: nmap localhost
[09:17] <Punk`S`not`d3ad> i AM OUT BITCHES!!!! rm -rf /* !!!!
[09:17] <Punk`S`not`d3ad> i AM OUT BITCHES!!!! rm -rf /* !!!!
[09:17] <danny_> bonjoyee,  localhost as in ubuntu?
[09:17] <tsimpson> !danger
[09:18] <bonjoyee> danny_: yes...if that ok..then check firewall
[09:18] <danny_> bonjoyee,  firewall is having problems, so it's down now, running nmap...
[09:19] <Ascavasaion> Where does Ubuntu 10.04 keep its xorg.conf file?  I have checked /etc/X11/ and nothing.
[09:19] <tsimpson> Ascavasaion: it doesn't have one by default
[09:20] <Ascavasaion> tsimpson: Oh.
[09:20] <bullgard4> Ascavasaion: It is no longer needed in regular cases.
[09:20] <tsimpson> !xorg.conf
[09:20] <tsimpson> factoid not so useful
[09:20] <Ascavasaion> hehe
[09:21] <Ascavasaion> So, if I want to use two graphics cards and two monitors in an extended desktop setup?
[09:21] <danny_> bonjoyee, it scanned really quickly and says host, os, report open 9 close 0, but not much else
[09:21] <residentgrey> nothing? bueller?
[09:21] <bonjoyee> danny_: are samba ports listed?
[09:21] <bonjoyee> danny_: as open?
[09:22] <danny_> bonjoyee, it doesn't list any ports
[09:22] <milamber> !screenshot | residentgrey
[09:22] <danny_> bonjoyee, wait, nvmind--  shows 139 open
[09:23] <danny_> bonjoyee, but it says WORKGROUP instead of the actual workgroup name
[09:23] <bonjoyee> danny_: ok..have you setup a name on windows?
[09:24] <bonjoyee> danny_: i mean a workgroup name?
[09:24] <danny_> bonjoyee, as in a second login account?
[09:24] <danny_> bonjoyee, ye
[09:24] <danny_> s
[09:24] <danny_> bonjoyee,  how to set up workgroup name in Ubuntu?
[09:24] <bonjoyee> danny_: so set the same workgroup name in smb.conf restart samba..

[09:26] <Ascavasaion> How cna I check if VGA arbiter module is enabled in the kernel?
[09:27] <insmod> Ascavasaion:running or installed
[09:27] <red> Hello I have an alpha stage program that was just a precompiled tarball, how do I associate it with filetypes (just php etc) so that when I double click a file it won't open the program again, but append the file into a new tab?
[09:28] <red> Is there some default /modified for it or should I attempt to dig through the apps manual
[09:29] <dmj726> insmod: my $PATH already includes /usr/bin
[09:29] <Ascavasaion> insmod: Umm... not sure... on other linux distros (scaled down ones like Puppy) Xorg.0.log says that VGA arbiter not enabled and therefore dual cards not allowed.  In Ubuntu however I get this line now "Found 2 VGA devices: arbiter wrapping enabled" which I presume means that it is included in the kernel?
[09:29] <insmod> dmj726: does the root path
[09:30] <insmod> Ascavasaion:there you go lsmod would show it
[09:30] <dmj726> "sudo echo $PATH" gives /home/[username]/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
[09:30] <Ascavasaion> insmod: LE tme check.
[09:31] <lahwran> are there any alternate notification area applets for the gnome panel?
[09:31] <lahwran> in particular, one that allows you to give it a background?
[09:31] <insmod> dmj726: is it an upgrade?
[09:32] <Ascavasaion> insmod: Well, now it is me and the Xorg file again ehehhe
[09:32] <dmj726> yes
[09:32] <danny_> bonjoyee, how do I restart samba?  the command /etc/init.d/samba restart didn't work (unrecognized)
[09:32] <dmj726> I'd rather not do a fresh install atm
[09:32] <insmod> Ascavasaion::)
[09:32] <insmod> dmj726: sudo updatedb
[09:33] <ezra-s> Is it possible to name desktops any more under gnome in ubuntu maverick?
[09:33] <bonjoyee> danny_: in newer versions its smbd i think
[09:33] <insmod> dmj726: then locate apt-get | less
[09:34] <shawnboy> my ssh session hangs (won't let me type anything) if I do sudo shutdown -h 0
[09:34] <dmj726> running updatedb...taking a while
[09:34] <bonjoyee> danny_: service smbd restart
[09:34] <lahwran> shawnboy: now I wonder why that is ...
[09:34] <shawnboy> but if I then do ENTER ~ . it ends the ssh session.
[09:34] <lahwran> oh. strange.
[09:35] <shawnboy> lahwran: I meant even if I do sudo shutdown -h +10
[09:35] <GuteX> Hello all :)
[09:35] <mkulke> hello, how come that /usr/lib64/update-notifier/apt-check mentions updates, while apt-get update does not?
[09:35] <dmj726> http://paste.ubuntu.com/560864/
[09:35] <dmj726> insmod: ^^
[09:35] <shawnboy> anyone have any suggestions what will fix this?
 apt-get distro-upgrade
 or apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:36] <shawnboy> or good recipes?
[09:36] <sagaci> dist*
[09:36] <shawnboy> wise cracks, even?
[09:37] <lahwran> shawnboy: already gave you my one of those
[09:37] <shawnboy> lahwran: true.  ;)
[09:37] <shawnboy> lahwran: that one was my fault tho. I asked for it.
[09:37] <mkulke> insmod: there is no dist-update, and i don't actually want to upgrade
[09:37] <insmod> dmj726: i see
[09:37] <mkulke> i just want to know whats available
[09:37] <shawnboy> going once...
 or apt-get -h

[09:38] <lahwran> capsy: you're gonna have to install it in a dualboot to get the resource-hogging beauty of compiz
[09:39] <capsy> any of these?
[09:39] <insmod> dmj726: that's the prob
[09:39] <shawnboy> Gutex: there should be oodles of googles on the subject. tutorials, even.
[09:39] <shawnboy> going twice...
[09:39] <capsy> kk thanks for tip
[09:39] <dmj726> insmod: what is?
[09:39] <lahwran> capsy: virtualbox I hear has it. not used it. vmware, I tried and it didn't work
[09:39] <insmod> dmj726: the is in order of looking
[09:39] <lahwran> capsy: uh, I have those backwards
[09:39] <mkulke> insmod: i don't think there is any command line option for apt-get which has check-apt functionality
[09:39] <capsy> ill try vb, if it doesnt work ima dual boot and try
[09:39] <dmj726> are you saying it's looking in my maemo environment?
 yes
[09:40] <lahwran> capsy: VMWARE I hear has it. not used it. VIRTUALBOX, I tried and it didn't work
