[19:02] <arleslie> Can someone tell me how I can get Ubuntu to detect my 3G USB Modem, I've gotten it to work two times in Ubuntu and thats all. But, it works all the time in windows and the device manager sees it.
[19:02] <militant> Dr_Willis, that maybe the issue.  it's a u3 but i used a tool to get rid of the u3 crap and the extra partition.  like i said it worked fine after that, on a newer machine but not on an older
[19:02] <Dr_Willis> militant:  what kind of install did you do to the 4gb?   live- usb-disk creator install?
[19:03] <Dr_Willis> I used good old fdisk to delete the u3 poo :)
[19:03] <iR00T> Can someone give me a original or there copy of sources.list for ubuntu 9.04
[19:03] <mMezquitale> erUSUL, thanks!  I figured it out, I just wonder if there is a way to make a folder invisible but I suppose that's too much to ask
[19:03] <militant> Dr_Willis, i'm trying to remember.  i think i just downloaded the regular 9.10 iso and used ... not unetbootin but the newer thing
[19:03] <lucas__> #ubuntu-it
[19:03] <Surlent777> mMezquitale: prefix a folder with a period to make it hidden
[19:03] <erUSUL> mMezquitale: define "invisible" files/dir that begin with a dot are invisible in linux
[19:03] <Dr_Willis> militant:  then its just a matter of copying over the files and reinstalling syslinux to the new flash drive
[19:03] <lucas__> help
[19:04] <lucas__> help in ubuntu
[19:04] <lucas__> help me
[19:04] <Surlent777> lucas__: /join #ubuntu-it
[19:04] <frostburn> arleslie, i'd check the ubuntu forums for your exact model of usb modem and see what other users have done
[19:04] <Dr_Willis> lucas__:  state the actual problem.
[19:04] <arleslie> militant:, Dr_Willis: U3 Ususally doesn't matter, but when you go to boot, you have to tell it to boot one of the U3 Partitions, (On the boot selection screen it'll display two)
[19:04] <McL0VIN> guntbert: and when you click on the MD5DUMS you can download it...because this is not the case here
[19:04] <lucas__> e come
[19:04] <legend2440> iroot
[19:04] <frostburn> i need to head out for a meeting but will be back later
[19:04] <mMezquitale> Surlent777, erUSUL i want to make a folder invisible to everyone else except me, is that possible?
[19:04] <Dr_Willis> arleslie:  i had issues just mounting u3 enabled flash drives. :) they dont stay u3 enabled bery long around me.
[19:04] <lucas__> link ed2k
[19:04] <guntbert> McL0VIN: right click - dowload?
[19:04] <legend2440> iR00T: http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/index.php
[19:04] <BruceW> Hello! I have a weird problem... using the internet connected with cable is extremely slow but using WiFI is fast how can this be?
[19:04] <erUSUL> mMezquitale: invisble or inaccessible ?
[19:05] <Guest40159> Hello - I am a little stuck. Having pressed (I think) ctrl+alt+f2, putting me in a fullscreen terminal, I haven't a clue how to get out again. Google doesn't help me. Is there some sort of key combination to return me to the GUI?
[19:05] <lucas__> config firefox link ed3k
[19:05] <lucas__> ed2k
[19:05] <militant> well what's happening is when i try to boot from it, syslinux comes up but it can't find kernel image
[19:05] <Surlent777> Guest40159: CtrlAltF7
[19:05] <BruceW> Hello! I have a weird problem... using the internet connected with cable is extremely slow but using WiFI is fast how can this be?
[19:05] <mMezquitale> erUSUL, both, inaccassible so they cant cd into it and better yet---invisible so they cant even see it
[19:06] <erUSUL> mMezquitale: to make it inaccssible give permissions only to the owner (you in this case) chmod -R 700 folder/
[19:06] <mMezquitale> erUSUL, i already figured out how to make it inaccessible
[19:06] <Surlent777> mMezquitale: then there's naught else you can do
[19:06] <militant> Dr_Willis, so if syslinux is coming up when i try to boot off the stick and it's just saying can't find kernel image... then what, i just need to redo syslinux on it?
[19:06] <Surlent777> mMezquitale: if they can't get into it, it doesn't matter if they can see the name or not
[19:06] <arleslie> Guest40159: Have you tried rebooting?
[19:07] <Surlent777> mMezquitale: though I think if you remove the executable permission from the folder they won't even be able to get a file listing
[19:07] <Guest40159> Aha - thankyou very much, Surlent777! That's extremely useful.
[19:07] <Surlent777> arleslie: no need to reboot. Just Ctrl+Alt+F7
[19:07] <iR00T> What do I need on this list the main repositors.?
[19:07] <sam_sam> i feel like being the second dumbest here ( ubottu is there :) )
[19:07] <Surlent777> Guest40159: those terminals are called TTYs, and they're incredibly useful. You have six of them (F1-F6)
[19:07] <g0tcha> hey guys, how can i make sure a package has been installed successfully through terminal?
[19:07] <McL0VIN> guntbert: but it saves it as .txt not md5
[19:07] <Dr_Willis> militant:  make a proper syslinux.cfg for it to use
[19:08] <Dr_Willis> militant:  or fix the one its has
[19:08] <militant> yeah i'm reading a page on it now.  i think we have this licked.  thx :D
[19:08] <mMezquitale> Surlent777, yes I changed permissions to 700, i was just wondering if it was possible to make it invisible so no one would even know it's there but it looks like if I make it invisible I wont be able to see it either
[19:08] <guntbert> McL0VIN: doesn't matter - you can use md5sum -c MD5SUM.txt as well
[19:08] <rb___> When I type vncserver :1 it does not request a password?
[19:08] <rb___> I had tightvnc before but deleted it
[19:09] <Surlent777> mMezquitale: you can see it even with a dot prefix via ls -a, or by turning on the option in your file browser to view hidden files (Ctrl+H in Nautilus, the default file manager for GNOME)
[19:09] <BruceW> is there a way to get hold of an older version of amarok? I really liked amarok when I Had Hardy Heron
[19:09] <Surlent777> BruceW: Google it. Someone has a special repo for it
[19:09] <Guest40159> Ah, very nice. Thanks, for the tip. Now let's see if I can work out what I was doing before I started pressing key combinations...
[19:11] <rb___> When I type vncserver :1 it does not request a password?
[19:11] <mMezquitale> Surlent777, thanks for the tip, novice ubuntu users  GUI only wont know that though
[19:11] <Pure> What version would be best for purely CLI?
[19:11] <Jkessler> what's the name for the next LTS release?
[19:11] <Pure> The GUI sploded on VBox
[19:11] <erUSUL> !lucid | Jkessler
[19:11] <Jkessler> ah, ty
[19:11] <Surlent777> Pure: Any Server edition I guess?
[19:12] <Pure> Thanks
[19:12] <Pure> Will it work for my compiling needs?
[19:12] <jarco> why is ctrl + alt + backspace not working anymore in ubuntu 9.10?
[19:12] <Pici> !dontzap | jarco
[19:12] <militant> hmmm everything looks proper in syslinux.cfg and text.cfg.  still no workie.  *scratches head*
[19:12] <iceroot> jarco: because it is dangerous
[19:13] <Surlent777> jarco: because the devs hate us, or want people to learn how to use Alt+SysRq+K...that's my guess anyway
[19:13] <legend2440> jarco: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-enabledisable-ctrlaltbackspace-in-ubuntu-9-10-karmic.html
[19:13] <Surlent777> Pici: dontzap no longer exists
[19:13] <Pici> Surlent777: That wiki page addresses that.
[19:13] <adam_g> hi, is there a way to AVOID updating grub2/bootloader during the first apt-get upgrade after initial install? (9.10)
[19:13] <Surlent777> ah, alright
[19:14] <Surlent777> adam_g: you could lock the version...easily done with Synaptic
[19:14] <jarco> ok thanks all it will be fixed soon
[19:14] <adam_g> Surlent777, its not that i care if the version is upgrade but i dont want it running reconfiguring/installing the actual bootloader.. ie, whatever post scripts apt-get runs after upgrade
[19:15] <jarco> thx all it works now :)
[19:15] <arleslie> I'm having issues with the diskcheck thing on the boot up. It keeps freezing when it goes to check.
[19:15] <recmajkemi> what is the firestarter .folder?
[19:15] <Surlent777> adam_g  hm, that could be an issue when installing kernels...guess you'd need to lock those too?
[19:15] <Pici> adam_g: Is there a reason you don't want it doing that?
[19:15] <Surlent777> adam_g: I think it only updates GRUB when it's relevent to the upgrade
[19:16] <iceroot> adam_g: the postinst-scripts from the packages
[19:17] <eddym> hey all, that swap space partition can be deleted once ubuntu is up and running?
[19:17] <adam_g> Pici, im running on on a macbook pro and i dont fully understand efi + grub2 bootloading.. i do know, though, that ubuntu installs it correctly first but any apt-get upgrade installs some other way which doesnt work
[19:17] <coreyB> hey is there anyway to get gtk-recordmydesktop to record what i hear on my computer?
[19:17] <iceroot> eddym: if there is nothing in swap, yes, maybe its needing umount before? dont know if swap is a munt
[19:18] <iceroot> eddym: s/munt/mount
[19:18] <nicola> ciao
[19:19] <erUSUL> !it | nicola
[19:19] <mMezquitale> how can you know if the sticky bit is set on a directory?
[19:19] <Surlent777> ls -al, I think
[19:19] <nicola> hi
[19:19] <erUSUL> mMezquitale: ls -l directory_name
[19:20] <eddym> iceroot, hmm
[19:20] <ESphynx> hey guys, where is xgears?
[19:20] <mMezquitale> erUSUL, what am I looking for though?
[19:20] <Surlent777> ESphynx: "locate xgears"
[19:20] <ESphynx> ah thanks, locate is your friend
[19:20] <rb___> How do i completely delete a folder with all the files inside?
[19:20] <erUSUL> mMezquitale: instead of a x you see an s iirc
[19:20] <erUSUL> rb___: rm -r folder/
[19:20] <Lostinspace_46> What do I need to call bzr to get this command to work?  [cp src/bzr-2.0.0-0ubuntu1 public_html/my-repository/binary/]  I assume I get this msg [cp: cannot stat `src/bzr-2.0.0-0ubuntu1': No such file or directory] due to the way I am naming the pkg.
[19:21] <rb___> I eidted a file and i don't know how to restore back to original
[19:21] <Surlent777> ESphynx: locate is my favorite command after aptitude
[19:21] <ESphynx> why is this telling me I don't have any proprietary drivers, and that it won't enable the fancy effects? I have a GeForce 8800GT
[19:21] <Surlent777> rb___: to completely delete a folder, use rm -rf /path/to/directory
[19:22] <Surlent777> ESphynx: because you don't have special proprietary drivers. Go to System > Admin > Restricted drivers
[19:22] <ESphynx> Desktop effects could not be enabked
[19:22] <iceroot> Lostinspace_46: why using []?
[19:22] <trism> Lostinspace_46: assuming it is a deb package, did you forget the .deb?
[19:22] <ESphynx> Restricted drivers? I dont have that
[19:22] <ESphynx> I have Proprietary Drivers
[19:22] <iceroot> Lostinspace_46: and what is bzr?
[19:22] <Surlent777> do that then
[19:22] <ESphynx> uh Harware Drivers
[19:22] <ESphynx> I mean... but nothing in there
[19:22] <Surlent777> or that
[19:22] <Surlent777> ohh
[19:22] <ESphynx> Help and Close
[19:22] <iceroot> !enter | ESphynx
[19:23] <Lostinspace_46> iceroot> I always put something around code..just a habbit
[19:23] <iceroot> Lostinspace_46: use ""

[19:23] <Surlent777> ESphynx: I'm not sure how to force it to check for updates...it usually does it automatically on first run =/
[19:23] <ESphynx> ah I will do an update, thanks
[19:23] <adam1314>  Configure WPA authentication?help?
[19:23] <ESphynx> dont think it did.
[19:23] <Surlent777> ESphynx: ....well, that might do it too. Who knows? Try it
[19:24] <Petrushka> i have been having a weird problem with ubuntu
[19:24] <Petrushka> i put ubuntu on one of my desktops about 6 months ago
[19:24] <Petrushka> and ever since then i have been having a lot of trouble with my cable internet going out
[19:24] <Petrushka> where i would have to reboot the cable modem to get it to come back, and sometimes it wouldn't come back
[19:24] <iceroot> Lostinspace_46: also use tab for commands like that  try cp startofthefilename then press tab
[19:24] <Lostinspace_46> trism The command should move my .deb files to the specified dir. It is from this tut. http://mediakey.dk/~cc/howto-create-your-own-debian-or-ubuntu-package-repository/
[19:24] <Petrushka> but i blamed the cable company, never the ubuntu box
[19:24] <steveo> I'm running 9.10 UNR and want to switch permanently to classic 9.10.  Can I just reinstall Ubuntu on the same partition as UNR to replace it?
[19:25] <steveo> or is there a quicker way?
[19:25] <Petrushka> then i took that computer down to my parents house and put it on their DSL, which has historically been very stable
[19:25] <arleslie> Is it better to update everything then upgrade to 9.10 UNR or just upgrade to 9.10UNR
[19:25] <Petrushka> and they started having the exact same problem
[19:25] <amites> anyone here worked with restoring grub2? Pulled a couple extra hard drives that were no longer needed and had to re-install grub2 from a live cd, now the box is booting directly to a grub bash prompt - wondering if I can restore the system or if I'll need to re-install
[19:25] <Petrushka> anybody have an idea what could cause that?
[19:25] <trism> Lostinspace_46: in that tutorial, the file ends in .deb (as do all deb packages)
[19:25] <guntbert> !enter | Petrushka
[19:25] <acme__> scare_byte
[19:25] <Lostinspace_46> iceroot> You are right about the quotes, my bad. I don't think I can tab this command though.
[19:25] <iceroot> Lostinspace_46: of course you can
[19:25] <mMezquitale> erUSUL, do I need to give write permission in order to be able to use the sticky bit?
[19:26] <iceroot> Lostinspace_46: try less /etc/de then press tab to see /etc/debian_version
[19:26] <erUSUL> mMezquitale: you have to be able to writte to change permissions
[19:26] <samd> hi, my laptop clock with ubuntu delays, i know its not the cmos battery because it does not delays when the computer its turned off. anyone know what it could be?

[19:33] <yeason> I'm sure I missed something but google didn't help, what's the syntax for starting a program from shell and forcing it to start on another display? I want to start a program through ssh but have it appear on the remote display. I thought something like "program :0" was supposed to do that
[19:33] <amites> steveo: probably ~ if your not worried about saving your setttings then you can do a fresh install ~ otherwise shouldn't be an issue basically installing a copy of gnome with the Ubuntu package
[19:33] <msconfing1> :DDD
[19:33] <Dr_Willis> The program 'pecl' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:

I checked my logs and I don't see any events for this happening so I don't know what's cuasing it. Any ideas? My guess is it might be the bios changing it back (got that idea from intel's documents on the kernel). Eh?
[19:36] <acovrig> if I run firefox (via ssh -X) and close my -X on the client, can I reconnect?

[19:37] <Pure> What is the command for install?
[19:37] <guntbert> McL0VIN: well I don't see a reason why it should not work - but its always better to test and check - so I advice to burn that iso, boot from it, check the "correctness" of the CD and then "try ubuntu" without installing anything

[19:38] <acovrig> ?
[19:38] <iceroot> Pure: ubuntu-server from console?
[19:38] <iceroot> Pure: ubuntu server is a version of ubuntu
[19:38] <Dravekx> sudo pecl install pdo just gives me an epmty prompt.. why?
[19:38] <msconfing1> dobra jak nikt nie odwazy sie odezwac po polsku to wylanczam ten mini czt !!!
[19:38] <NateW> i have an i7 with 9gb of ram and 9.10 keeps freezing except for the mouse.. i did a fresh install and the problem continued.. i have absolutely no issues on win7...  any ideas?
[19:38] <iceroot> Pure: its a iso-image, so burn it and boot it
[19:39] <Pure> And how do I install it from the console?
[19:39] <Dravekx> oh there it does
[19:39] <arleslie> Thanks Myrtti
[19:39] <Dravekx> geez... talk about lag
[19:39] <Pure> I'm at the text installer, but it's borkerd
[19:39] <NateW> also right before it freezes, anything i save gets saved as an empty file (0 bytes)
[19:39] <iceroot> Pure: download ubuntu server edition iso
[19:39] <Myrtti> msconfing1: please feel free to tell me in pm when you're up to some English communication
[19:39] <trism> Lostinspace_46: yes, I think the author is just using it as an example, I'm sure you can use any packages you want
[19:39] <iceroot> Pure: if there are errors post them here
[19:40] <McL0VIN> guntbert: i tried it this morning but i am getting the same as this guy except he is using server version, but same symptoms http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=334823 #3
[19:40] <Pure> There aren't asny errors, I can't see the text installer it's a load of |
[19:40] <soks> Anyone familiar with scaling_governor settings? Particularly with them changing on their own (not CPU speed but actual governor changing on its own)
[19:40] <iceroot> Pure: you are using server-edition 9.10?
[19:40] <iceroot> Pure: burnt that to a cd and boot the cd?
[19:40] <Pure> I've booted it!
[19:41] <Pure> I AM AT THE TEXT INSTALLER!!!
[19:41] <iceroot> Pure: and there way a menu "install, memtest and so on?"
[19:41] <Pure> I PRESSED IMSTALL UBUNTU SERVER
[19:41] <Pure> AND GOT TO THE TEXT INSTALLER
[19:41] <Myrtti> Pure: please lose the caps
[19:41] <iceroot> Pure: stop shouting at me
[19:41] <Pici> Pure: Lose the caps and the attiude
[19:41] <Pure> Sorry
[19:42] <acovrig> can I move a window between X displays?
[19:42] <NateW> anyone having issues with an i7 in 9.10 amd64?
[19:42] <iceroot> Pure: and after pressing on text-installer nothing happened?
[19:42] <Pure> So, apart from the text installer, how can I install?
[19:43] <soks> NateW: mine freezes randomly sometimes, but I never traced it to an issue with the i7.
[19:43] <Pure> As I said it looks like |s
[19:43] <Pure> Every cell
[19:44] <iceroot> Pure: tried the cd check in the menu when booting the cd?
[19:44] <NateW> soks: im just trying to figure out whats going on.. i will be working on something and everything will freeze except for the mouse.. (but i cant click on anything).. CTRL + ALT + F# doesnt do anything either
[19:44] <Pure> We did that with the client, yet it did nothing
[19:44] <Lostinspace_46> trism> Well I have a newer version of bzr. .deb is no where in the name.  If I understand the tut, this "cp src/bzr_0.11-1.1_all.deb public_html/my-repository/binary/' Is supposed to find all my .deb files and put them in one dir
[19:44] <iceroot> Lostinspace_46: cp is copy
[19:45] <trism> Lostinspace_46: that is not what that command does at all, it copies 1 deb file (bzr-version.deb) into that directory
[19:45] <iceroot> Lostinspace_46: nothing else
[19:45] <guntbert> McL0VIN: did you try the solutions from #5 ?
[19:45] <iceroot> Lostinspace_46: also you are using the wrong path i guess
[19:46] <Pure> Do you want a screen?
[19:46] <iceroot> Lostinspace_46: or is src pat of your home-directory?
[19:46] <iceroot> Pure: no infos like what version of ubuntu
[19:46] <soks> Pure: if you can't get the CD check to work... I wouldn't expect the installer to work either.
[19:46] <acovrig> how do I scroll up in irssi?
[19:46] <Lostinspace_46> ice, no it is not
[19:46] <McL0VIN> guntbert: am not around the server now , will be in 5 hrs...but will do when i go home
[19:46] <Guest65472> I need to move an ubuntu install from a bigger hd to a smaller one, id like to put the OS on the small drive, and keep files on the large one, how do I go about this?
[19:46] <Pure> Ubuntu Server 9.10 running on VBox
[19:46] <iceroot> acovrig: depending on your terminal  normally page up
[19:46] <guntbert> McL0VIN: please do try - and Good luck :-)
[19:46] <iceroot> Pure: ah ok enabled vt-x in vbox?
[19:47] <acovrig> iceroot, it just scrolls the page, not irssi, thanks
[19:47] <McL0VIN> guntbert: thank you for all you help and your patient :)
[19:47] <trism> Lostinspace_46: what exactly are you trying to do?
[19:47] <iceroot> Pure: there was a bug in vbox which cant handle unbuntu-server because of a vt-x bug in vbox
[19:47] <iceroot> acovrig: the page?
[19:47] <Pure> It didn't show the gui on client either
[19:47] <Pure> It showed alot of multicoloured, durses sized cells
[19:47] <Lostinspace_46> trism> could you msg me, because it's a long answer?
[19:48] <iceroot> Pure: what ubuntu-server? 32 bit or 64bit?
[19:48] <iceroot> Pure: using hardware virtualisation? (vt-x or amd-v)
[19:48] <Pure> No
[19:48] <trism> Lostinspace_46: I'd rather not, I was just curious
[19:48] <Pure> Wait, let me check
[19:48] <iceroot> Pure: no is not an answer to that question
[19:49] <Guest65472> I need to move an ubuntu install from a bigger hd to a smaller one, id like to put the OS on the small drive, and keep files on the large one, how do I go about this?
[19:49] <Pure> It is
[19:49] <iceroot> Guest65472: files = /home?
[19:49] <guntbert> McL0VIN: np - glad to help
[19:49] <iceroot> Pure: reread my question and think about your answer
[19:49] <Guest65472> iceroot, really just my /home/music /home/videos /home/downloads
[19:49] <Pure> I answered agian
[19:49] <Pure> It is on
[19:49] <iceroot> Pure: is it 32bit or 64bit? you answerd no and then it is
[19:49] <Guest65472> iceroot, i have a 320gb wd, that has the os and files now, but i heard using a big sata drive for main OS will cause it to fail
[19:49] <Shazam> is palimpsest in apt? what repo?
[19:49] <Pure> Should it be off?
[19:50] <Pure> 32
[19:50] <Pure> I read hardware virtulization
[19:50] <iceroot> Pure: is that the vbox from ubuntu-repo?
[19:50] <maciekish> Hello!
[19:50] <Pure> iceroot, no, it's on vista
[19:50] <iceroot> Shazam: apt-cache search palimpset
[19:50] <Kieran0413> Guest65472, Who told you that? :S
[19:51] <Novice> Anyone know if hardy supports ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64 ?
[19:51] <iceroot> Pure: ah ok, so vista is the host
[19:51] <maciekish> Could someone please help me make lynx browse via eth0 instead of eth1 please? Im updating my IP to zoneedit via cron job but it keeps pulling wrong IP..
[19:51] <Guest65472> Kieran0413, been reading about hd's recently, seen it in a few places that say if your going to run a home media server to try to put the os on a smaller seperate drive
[19:51] <Pure> Is VT-x bad?
[19:51] <iceroot> Pure: no
[19:51] <viktor> anyone know how to get the "stock price panel" to xubuntu?
[19:51] <Shazam> iceroot: comes back with nothing. Do you know the repo?
[19:51] <Pure> What would cause the wierd anomalies?
[19:51] <Guest65472> iceroot, can I shrink the partition on live-cd and dd it to a new hd?
[19:51] <m0ar_> My ubuntu is actin bitchy, when my external USb-drive loses power it's unable to be mounted. It's not in /dev, but dmesg | grep sdb outputs this; http://pastebin.com/m25c2e256. Appreciate help
[19:51] <iceroot> !info palimpset
[19:52] <Kieran0413> Guest65472, It's never a bad idea to separate the os files and media but having the operating system on a large sata drive certainly wont cause it to fail
[19:52] <Lostinspace_46> trism> I am setting up a repository. Rather that fight dependencies with a "from site" pkg I want to repackage them as debs so I can use the deb installer. Doing this is all new to me, but...gotta learn sometime.
[19:52] <iceroot> Shazam: its not on ubuntu-repos
[19:52] <Guest65472> Kieran0413, alright. im just needing to know the best way to go about this then, i have several machines and a live-cd avalable.
[19:52] <iceroot> Guest65472: yes, i would also use dd for that
[19:52] <trism> Lostinspace_46: you don't need your own repo to install debs
[19:53] <Guest65472> iceroot, so if i copy the files off, i should be able to run a live-cd and shrink the partition to the size of the new drive?
[19:53] <iceroot> Guest65472: dd has an option for copieind bigger drives to smaller drives
[19:53] <guntbert> Shazam:  its gnome-disk-utility
[19:53] <Pure> Good image host anyone?
[19:53] <Dr_Willis> Guest65472:  the 'fsarchiver' tool can helo archive/mirror/clone a drive to a larger/smaller drive. but its not in the default repos.
[19:53] <iceroot> Guest65472: have a look at man dd
[19:53] <Zhenya> Hi everyone, I am a total newb and want to install a linux distro. I think Ubuntu is the best for me, and I like the way gnome looks. Can someone direct me if the windows installer is a good tool to use?
[19:53] <trism> Lostinspace_46: setting up your own repository is more so other people can have access to your packages, or if you want a local mirror to save bandwidth
[19:54] <Dr_Willis> Zhenya:  i would avoid the 'wubi' windows installer. and do a normal dual boot type install.
[19:54] <Guest65472> iceroot, ok, i thought dd could only do it the other way around
[19:54] <iceroot> Guest65472: hm i think it can do both
[19:54] <Myrtti> Zhenya: if you just want to test it, then yes, it's ok. If you want to use it full time, then use the real installer
[19:54] <Lostinspace_46> trism> Well..DUH. Just didn't cross my mind that I could just repack and use deb installer
[19:54] <Zhenya> Dr_Willis: Are there guides for this? i have an thinkpad t41 and would LOVE dual boot for learning purpopes and then switch eventually to only linux!
[19:54] <DrMax> is there a way to transfer all contents of a (exchange) mail account to another with evolution ?
[19:55] <Shazam> guntbert: sudo apt-cache search gnome-disk-utility returns nothing either
[19:55] <Lostinspace_46> trism> Forrest for the trees kind of thing.
[19:55] <Shazam> apt-get install doesn't know that one either
[19:55] <iceroot> DrMax: only mails?
[19:55] <iceroot> DrMax: then imapsync
[19:55] <DrMax> well, subfolder and all?
[19:55] <Pure> http://tinypic.com/r/20t2o3r/6
[19:55] <Dr_Willis> Zhenya:  the normal installer method can resize/do a dual boot install. thats the most common way
[19:55] <DrMax> iceroot : ok, how does that work ?
[19:55] <Pure> Is that normal?
[19:56] <Dr_Willis> Zhenya:  befor you start you may want to defrag/scandisk/backup anything you got in windows.. Just in case
[19:56] <Deathvalley122> I have a question after me submitting a bug report and getting loads of replies on it shouldn't it be enough for the developers to have a fix for it O.o
[19:56] <DrMax> and it's not imap, but (ms) exchange
[19:56] <Zhenya> Dr_Willis: OK GREAT doing that first then
[19:56] <guntbert> Shazam: just try sudo aptitude (or apt-get) install gnome-disk-utility
[19:56] <iceroot> DrMax:man imapsync   you are calling it like that imapsync username password old-account username password new-account
[19:56] <Zhenya> DrMax: and download the regular installer
[19:56] <Zhenya> Dr_Willis: i will be back! thanks
[19:56] <iceroot> DrMax: exchange is not using imap?
[19:57] <dan2> how do I get the latency of pulseaudio turned way down?
[19:57] <Shazam> guntbert: E: Couldn't find package gnome-disk-utility
[19:57] <DrMax> iceroot : hmm don't know?
[19:57] <Pure> iceroot, http://tinypic.com/r/20t2o3r/6 is it normal?
[19:57] <guntbert> Shazam: sudo aptitude update
[19:58] <Shazam> guntbert: done, still nada
[19:58] <iceroot> Pure: of course not
[19:58] <guntbert> Shazam: what ubuntu version?
[19:58] <Pure> Any reason it would happen?
[19:58] <iceroot> Pure: but i dont know vbox version for vista
[19:58] <Pure> One second
[19:58] <Zhenya> is kde a good desktop manager to use with ubuntu?
[19:58] <Shazam> guntbert: 9.04. I've had some problems with 9.10
[19:59] <Pure> 3.12
[19:59] <iceroot> Zhenya: yes like gnome, xfce4 and so on
[19:59] <Quasar1048> Does anyone how do configure macro keys with the Logitech G series keyboards?
[19:59] <Pure> iceroot,  3.12
[19:59] <Pure> Make that 3.1.2
[19:59] <iceroot> Pure: i wanted to say, i never used vbox on vista so i dont know if there are bugs
[19:59] <Zhenya> iceroot: gotcha, i'm a newb and just trying to find the most visually pleasing interface, just so sick of windows
[19:59] <Quasar1048> The software doesn't seem to work...
[19:59] <jrib> Quasar1048: if xev tells you something is pressed, just use xbindkeys
[19:59] <iceroot> Zhenya: visual? then use kde4
[19:59] <guntbert> Shazam: that explains a bit - I have to do some looking up
[20:00] <Zhenya> Dr_Willis: can i use the regular installer on ubuntu without burning a cd?
[20:00] <Shazam> guntbert: my sources.list http://paste.ubuntu.com/353607/
[20:00] <Zhenya> iceroot: ok great thanks!
[20:00] <CodAr2D3> Ubuntu-8.10 should update with this: http://debian.cs.binghamton.edu/debian/pool/main/g/gadmin-proftpd/gadmin-proftpd_0.3.8-1_amd64.deb
[20:00] <Izinucs> Is there a tool installed or available to adjust the "tap" sensitivity of a touchpad on a Dell laptop?
[20:00] <iceroot> Zhenya: try it with a live-cd to see if you like kde or gnome
[20:00] <Quasar1048> jrib: not familiar with xev...
[20:00] <iceroot> Zhenya: or use vbox
[20:00] <jrib> Quasar1048: run it, press buttons with mouse in square...
[20:00] <Quasar1048> The g keys do something if pressed...
[20:00] <Zhenya> iceroot: any chance you could walk me through this so i dont screw it up and learn :D?
[20:00] <jrib> !synaptics | Izinucs
[20:00] <jrib> iceroot: no idea, but see if there's a setting there
[20:01] <Quasar1048> Oh. I heard compiz can do it too...
[20:01] <jrib> Izinucs: no idea, but see if there's a setting there
[20:01] <Izinucs> jrib thanks... didn't know about that link
[20:01] <iceroot> Zhenya: download the cd, burn it, put it in the drive, boot from it, choose live cd and have fun
[20:01] <jrib> Izinucs: you probably want to read some reference docs on synaptics even if that wiki page doesn't mention anything about sensitivity
[20:01] <Zhenya> iceroot: I dont have an blank cd's. any way to do this from a usb stick?
[20:01] <iceroot> !usb | Zhenya
[20:02] <Dr_Willis> Zeit|awy:  you can make a usb boot/installer
[20:02] <Dr_Willis> oops that was for Zhenya
[20:02] <Izinucs> jrib  ... probably should have mentioned .. this is on a Kubuntu 9.10 install (converting a windows user :)  )
[20:02] <Zhenya> ubottu: thank you
[20:03] <Dr_Willis> Zhenya:  use the unetbootin tool under windows to make a bootable flash drive to install from. Is how i normally do it
[20:03] <Izinucs> jrib  should have read further.. there's a kde version
[20:03] <wqing> I have a dell laptop with a docking station and an additional monitor for dual head. I can't figure out how to get panels to show on the additional monitor. I they only show on the laptop. (ubuntu 9.10 gnome)
[20:03] <guntbert> Shazam: palimpsest aka gnome-disk-utility is new in karmic - I found a description how to install it, but I don't know if that will really work out for you - no recommendation :-) http://www.webupd8.org/2009/08/how-to-install-palimpsest-disk-utility.html
[20:03] <Quasar1048> Ah, jrib left... anyone else know about macro keys and xev?
[20:03] <Zhenya> Dr_Willis: wow ok i need to make sure i dont get in over my head :D
[20:04] <Timon> someone here want to help me with running a program in wine?
[20:04] <Shazam> guntbert: Alright, thanks, that does explain the mystery. I've got HD Sentinel running on boot, that'll do
[20:04] <Shazam> guntbert: thanks a ton though
[20:04] <Timon> trying to run photoshop CS4 setup, but just nothing happens when i open the setup with wine
[20:04] <guntbert> Shazam: you're welcome :-)
[20:05] <Um_cara_qualquer> does anybody knows how i convert mp4 to avi?
[20:05] <Dr_Willis> Zhenya:  you could just follow directions at pendrivelinux.com and run/use ubuntu from the flash drive. No need to install. or test it out in 'virtualbox'
[20:05] <Zhenya> Dr_Willis: Anyone here using Ubuntu on a thinkpad t41 (or similar?)
[20:05] <Dr_Willis> Um_cara_qualquer:  avidemux, winff, mencoder, ffmpeg, handbrake....
[20:06] <Dr_Willis> Zhenya:  i recall there being many forum threads/sections for thinkpads
[20:06] <Um_cara_qualquer> which one you recomend?
[20:06] <Um_cara_qualquer> :P
[20:06] <hellyeah> jbh
[20:06] <Zhenya> Dr_Willis: i found a wiki site but wanted to get a general concensus if everything actually worked like the volume buttons etc
[20:07] <Dr_Willis> Zhenya:  wiki pages and forums wouel proberly be best for that.
[20:07] <yeason> Zhenya: I'm using a thinkpad X60 and the volume buttons, brightness, and sleep I believe worked out of the box with 9.10

[20:08] <meowsus> I'm using Pidgin, and consistently hit the "X" to minimize the Buddy List to the tray... Unfortunately, the "X" closes the program. Is there a plugin or something that will make the "X" button react the way i want?

[20:21] <KennyDewhirst> guntbert: 2.6.24-26-generic. That's the one it's stuck on installing
[20:21] <Dr_Willis> wathek:  it might be safest to reboot and scan/check the filesystems.
[20:22] <wathek> Dr_Willis, after a reboot everything back right but I've to force the reboot and I'm looking for a way to solve it without a reboot
[20:22] <guntbert> KennyDewhirst: thats the latest for hardy see http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy-updates/base/
[20:23] <KennyDewhirst> guntbert: That's the one it's trying to update to. It's sticking on the configuration.
[20:23] <pfred1> wathek you could drop to runlevel 1 unmount your / then run fsck
[20:23] <silvercolacola> hey
[20:23] <silvercolacola> I got A QUESTINO
[20:23] <BruceW> !runlevel
[20:23] <wathek> pfred1, why do I've to run fsck ?
[20:23] <silvercolacola> My friend said 9.10 was made for net books is this true
[20:23] <nightsjammies> eeebuntu is made for netbooks
[20:24] <pfred1> wathek oh my mistake I thought you wanted to check your filesystem
[20:24] <guntbert> KennyDewhirst: no - you are actually running that one - believe me
[20:24] <nightsjammies> You can upgrade from eeebuntu 3.0 to 9.10
[20:24] <silvercolacola> is 9.10 faster than 9.04
[20:24] <yeason> Zhenya: sorry I disappeared. as far as linux over XP there's trade-offs as with any situation. KDE vs. Gnome is mainly preference. In my experience linux tends to be quicker and more reliable that windows in general
[20:24] <silvercolacola> because I running it for gaming and I think 9.04 is faster
[20:24] <wathek> how can I what process is using one module ?
[20:25] <KennyDewhirst> guntbert: Okay. apt is complaining at me, anyway. Am I doing something wrong?
[20:25] <silvercolacola> why can't I run l4d2 on steam without getting a compresion texture error on linux 9.10
[20:25] <Zhenya> yeason: Thank you for your input, i'm going to do a livecd and play around with it. Do you know if it's possible to install kde on ubunuto 9.10 on a livecd?
[20:25] <guntbert> KennyDewhirst: I don't know - what is it complaining about?
[20:26] <Dr_Willis> Zhenya:  theres Kubuntu live cd's
[20:26] <KennyDewhirst> guntbert: Errors were encountered while processing:
[20:26] <KennyDewhirst>  linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-26-generic
[20:26] <KennyDewhirst>  linux-image-generic
[20:26] <KennyDewhirst>  linux-generic
[20:26] <FloodBot3> KennyDewhirst: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:26] <Zhenya> is that what kubuntu is?
[20:26] <silvercolacola> dude why do i get a texture compression error
[20:26] <yeason> Zhenya: yes
[20:26] <Zhenya> yeason: hahah ok i'm an idiot, thanks guys
[20:26] <guntbert> KennyDewhirst: use !pastebin
[20:26] <pfred1> I hate the KDE that ships with 9.10
[20:26] <yeason> Zhenya: ubuntu uses gnome, kubuntu uses kde, and xubuntu uses xfce
[20:27] <Zhenya> which one of the desktopmangers is the slickest and sexiest(god i sound like such a n00b)
[20:27] <KennyDewhirst> guntbert: Those are the only three packages it's complaining about.
[20:27] <iceroot> Zhenya: try them
[20:27] <yeason> Zhenya: Once again its preference. KDE and Gnome are both fairly equivalent in features
[20:27] <Zhenya> gotcha ok
[20:27] <pfred1> yeason the menu in KDE is so nasty now!
[20:27] <happy_> Zhenya: KDE, KDE, KDE
[20:28] <pfred1> yeason and this is coming from someone that ran KDE 3.1 for like 5 years!
[20:28] <Dr_Willis> the next release of kde4 - has some very neat features. :)
[20:28] <Zhenya> happy_: thats what i've been seeing fromthe screen shot
[20:28] <silvercolacola> omg
[20:28] <guntbert> KennyDewhirst: but it tells you a bit more I think... - if you like you can ignore the errors ...
[20:28] <pfred1> yeason so its not like I'm not a huge fan of KDE
[20:28] <silvercolacola> I am angry!!!!!!!!!!!!1er
[20:28] <guntbert> !attitude | silvercolacola
[20:28] <silvercolacola> I installed ubunto 9.10
[20:28] <silvercolacola> I did the winehq thing
[20:28] <happy_> Zhenya: this is probably when I should have ubottu tell you about polling...
[20:28] <silvercolacola> Ubunto can't run cod6
[20:29] <silvercolacola> or any game
[20:29] <KennyDewhirst> guntbert: i'll give you the whole output. It's on my dad's notebook. I think it's been bothering him for a while
[20:29] <silvercolacola> why not!!!
[20:29] <ikonia> silvercolacola: ubuntu is linux, most games are written for windows
[20:29] <silvercolacola> anyone please tell me I going insane
[20:29] <happy_> !poll > Zhenya
[20:29] <silvercolacola> I did the winehq thing so i could do it
[20:29] <guntbert> KennyDewhirst: ok, be sure to use pastebin please
[20:29] <ikonia> silvercolacola: wine does not support all games - that's not a linux problem, that's a wine issue
[20:29] <Zhenya> happy_: lol yeah, lol. That's a pretty impressive bot
[20:29] <KennyDewhirst> guntbert: I'll be good
[20:30] <Zhenya> ubottu: you are a impressive but :P
[20:30] <Zhenya> *bot
[20:30] <usser> silvercolacola, wine is not perfect, might not run ALL windows apps especially the newer ones
[20:30] <arbri> im trying to mount a virtual disk, but there are some directories and files i cant access
[20:30] <flithm> hey everyone... just trying out amarok here.  Oddly it plays internet radio streams, but not local mp3s.   Gzip is complaining that the disk is full
[20:31] <pinkisntwell> is it possible that the root user will be denied to change the owner of a file?
[20:31] <KennyDewhirst> guntbert: I'll send you the rest of it if you're interested, but I'm gonna try clearing out some files and seeing if that fixes is
[20:32] <happy_> pinkisntwell: that does not sound right. SELinux MIGHT be able to do it...
[20:32] <azlon> when i try to mount my RAID5 i get this error: http://pastebin.com/d9cf6c64
[20:32] <arbri> anyone has any ideas how i can mount this virtual file so that i can access all of it contents
[20:32] <guntbert> KennyDewhirst: I guess that will be the issue - no need for the file if you found it yourself - Good luck :-)
[20:32] <spartan-087> i can not burn a copy of ubuntu 9.10 iso to cd, it burns and all but will not install to any computer
[20:32] <spartan-087> can some one help
[20:33] <KennyDewhirst> guntbert: Thanks. Have a good day.
[20:33] <Kieran0413> spartan-087, Check the md5 sum of the iso to make sure it's ok and make sure you check "verify when complete" or similar in your burning application
[20:33] <azlon> for some reason i cant mount my raid. /proc/mdstat says it is fine but i get this error when i try to mount it: http://pastebin.com/d432fb94f
[20:33] <guntbert> KennyDewhirst: same to you
[20:33] <Shazam> can I use gparted to resize a mounted logical partition safely?
[20:34] <ikonia> Shazam: can't resize mounted partitions
[20:34] <guntbert> Shazam: not if anything within is mounted - you will need a live CD
[20:34] <zafer> spartan ı think u do wrong
[20:35] <guntbert> arbri: about what virtual disk are you talking?
[20:35] <KnifeySpooney> I have a quick question - I have a cpu that can handle 64bit Ubuntu, but I only have 1GB of ram. Would using 64bit Ubuntu make ANY difference whatsoever except for allowing me to run both 64bit and 32bit executables?
[20:35] <arbri> virtual disk created with wubi
[20:35] <yeason> pfred1: oh, I know, I hate it now too... it's gotten better since the latest major release, but it really isn't what it once was
[20:36] <pfred1> yeason I tried using it but I just couldn't handle what they'd done with the menus I hate gnome but here i am in it!
[20:37] <malloc64> i was trying to upgrade from jaunty to karmic with do-release-upgrade and it froze up. i ctrl-c'd and now i cant do anything because debconf frontend is still running. sudo kill -9 PID isn't killing it. help please.
[20:37] <yeason> pfred1 I felt the same way about gnome but being somewhat 'forced' to use it I've found I'm starting to like it more than KDE... at least as far as current versions go
[20:38] <arbri> ive installed ubuntu 9.10 inside windows 7 but bcause i updated to the latest linux headers i cant boot ubuntu anymore, so im trying to get my data back, mounting the virtual disk from a live cd, it seems though i cant access certain files or directories
[20:38] <pfred1> yeason yeah I see no viable alternative now
[20:38] <xeross> Hey, I installed ubuntu to my usb stick but sometimes it hangs for a few seconds, any way I can prevent that ?
[20:38] <pfred1> yeason I have a shortcut to konquerer on my desktop and I'm going with it
[20:38] <yeason> pfred1 xfce is pretty good actually, it's got some funny quirks but it runs a lot quicker than gnome or kde
[20:38] <lenswipe> hey guys
[20:38] <guntbert> !ot | yeason pfred1
[20:38] <lenswipe> can someone helpe me out with samba
[20:39] <lenswipe> i cant get into my netlogon share

[20:41] <lenswipe> anyone?
[20:41] <malloc64> how do i kill a process that wont die with kill -9?
[20:41] <lenswipe> i cant get into my netlogon share

[20:41] <geezenslaw> Hello, I have local cloud vs public cloud question.
[20:41] <elektrikz> hi,anyone knows where can I find the ubuntu kernel configuration?
[20:41] <Pici> geezenslaw: #ubuntu-server would be more appropriate for ubuntu cloud questions
[20:42] <TimothyA> what's the difference between 8.04 and 9.10?
[20:42] <guntbert> elektrikz: /boot/config....
[20:42] <Pici> TimothyA: 1 and a half years
[20:42] <TimothyA> that's all?
[20:42] <zkoo> hah
[20:42] <Myrtti> TimothyA: the other is LTS release, the other is not
[20:42] <Pici> TimothyA: 8.04 is also an LTS release that will be supported for 3/5 years desktop/server.  9.10 will only be supported for 18 months
[20:43] <elektrikz> guntbert, ty! :-)
[20:43] <gdiz_> are there any good gui partitioners for partitioning an external hard drive
[20:43] <guntbert> elektrikz: you're welcome :-)
[20:43] <TimothyA> Pici; If they're that much alike, why the different attitude towards them? :P
[20:43] <TimothyA> is 9.10 considered a bastard child or something?
[20:43] <lenswipe> can someone help me with that?
[20:43] <geezenslaw> ubuntu-server it is, thanks...
[20:43] <lenswipe> anyone?
[20:43] <lenswipe> i cant get into my netlogon share
[20:43] <maco> TimothyA: 9.10 had a lot of experimental new features thrown in to get them well-tested before 10.04
[20:43] <lenswipe> i can only get into my netlogon share in samba if i force root through smb.conf
[20:44] <lenswipe> is anyone able to help with that?
[20:44] <nightsjammies> Um, anyone?
[20:44] <Pici> TimothyA: Its newer and not an LTS release so its a little buggy.
[20:44] <gigawatt> does anyone know how to make virtural box running windows in ubuntu see usb devices?
[20:45] <Pici> gigawatt: Use the version of vbox from their website. the open source version in our repositories does not support USB.
[20:45] <gigawatt> carp!
[20:45] <ZykoticK9> gigawatt, to start with you can't you the VirtualBox from Ubuntu repo (OSE) you need the version direct from Sun
[20:45] <yeason> gigawatt: first of all something I've discovered with that is if there's no linux drivers for the device it wont work anyway
[20:46] <nightsjammies> bloody hell.
[20:46] <lenswipe> i can only get into my netlogon share in samba if i force root through smb.conf
[20:46] <lenswipe> is anyone able to help with that?
[20:46] <lenswipe> anyone?

[20:48] <chadwin> Hi guys
[20:48]  * Claudiu__ is away: Away fo now ..
[20:48] <gigawatt> samba is a beast
[20:48] <gigawatt> and unnecessary unless you need a gui
[20:49] <radioman-lt> samba is just a file server
[20:49] <gigawatt> i know
[20:49] <malloc64> how do i kill a process that doesn't listen to kill -9?
[20:49] <gigawatt> but if you set up apache so it that

[20:50] <scott_ino2> nightsjammies, what is your question
[20:50] <nightsjammies> Doesn't suprise me.
[20:50] <scott_ino2> I just joined in, maybe i can help
[20:51] <nightsjammies> It just has to do with my number pad. It isn't working, for some reason, even though I have it enabled.
[20:51] <nightsjammies> And thank you scott_ino2
[20:51] <scott_ino2> nightsjammies, is this a separate number pad or integrated one in your keyboard?
[20:51] <bujar> how do i call the "network connections" program from the console? please
[20:52] <night_fox1> Hello Ubuntu support! Would you mind helping me with my nvidia driver? I'm trying to do this fix: http://www.terminally-incoherent.com/blog/2009/11/16/kubuntu-9-10-upgrade/ but I can't find /etc/modprobe.d/lrm-video. Is there a file that I should edit instead, or do I need to reinstall the nvidia driver from its source code?
[20:52] <nightsjammies> It's the kind that's integrated off to the right side of the regular keypad
[20:52] <purpzey> How do I access a shared folder? I followed this: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/internet/C/networking-shares.html tutorial on how to setup the share, but I want to know how to access it from other computers on the network.
[20:52] <scott_ino2> nightsjammies, is this a desktop keyboard or laptop?

[20:53] <night_fox1> bujar: you can start the network manager applet by typing nm-applet but you need a working gui for it to work
[20:53] <nightsjammies> Thank you.
[20:54] <guntbert> ISIIS: don't ask that here
[20:54] <parkandstop> how do i open .bin files
[20:54] <ISIIS> guntbert: ok ...but where?
[20:54] <guntbert> !piracy | ISIIS
[20:54] <Dr_Willis> parkandstop:  depends on what it is . .bin is a generic extension tht means very little.

[20:55] <scott_ino2> nightsjammies, opena  terminal and type: xev and hit enter, it should open a diagnostic that checks to see if you're getting any response from your keypad keys.

[20:57] <scott_ino2> nightsjammies, then try pressing the keys on your keypad that seem to be unresponsive, this will determine if it's responsive or not
[20:57] <nightsjammies> Along with a large amount of output in the terminal
[20:57] <Dr_Willis> purpzey:  if you did samba shares you can use teh gnome file manager and its network places to browse for them
[20:57] <nightsjammies> Nothing. With or without the numlock key enabled.

[20:57] <Dr_Willis> purpzey:  or you could mount them to some given location by hand.
[20:57] <scott_ino2> nightsjammies, yes, we just want to see if it's responsive when you touch one of the keys

[20:58] <gigawatt> where do i find it
[20:58] <Isaban> In the menu
[20:58] <Dr_Willis> gigawatt:  it should add an entry to the menus when you install it. You might need to logout/back in for it to show up
[20:58] <gigawatt> ok
[20:58] <CaBlGuY> is there a version with wicd package already built in?
[20:59] <Isaban> Vitrual Applications

[20:59] <gigawatt> under which category
[20:59] <gigawatt> oh isee
[20:59] <night_fox1> Does anyone know the answer to my question about /etc/modprobe.d/lrm-video?
[20:59] <Isaban> gigawatt: Vitrual Applications
[20:59] <scott_ino2> nightsjammies, go to System/Preferences/Keyboard and go to the "Mouse Keys" tab. Make sure the box that says "allow to control the pointer using the keyboard is Unchecked
[20:59] <CaBlGuY> !wicd
[21:00] <scott_ino2> night_fox1, if you do cd /etc/modprobe.d and then type ls it should tell you what you have in there, if it's not in there then im guessing you nee something else

[21:04] <apparle> AJC_Z0: I am on KDE and not getting any info on #kubuntu so I asked here
[21:04] <nightsjammies> I have a coolant pad for mine, so do you think I'd run into that problem?
[21:04] <gigawatt> sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup sudo: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv: command not found
[21:04] <night_fox1> scott_ino2: The howto i was reading said I needed to install the latest nvidia driver from the website, but I'm having real trouble doing it
[21:05] <nohup> Good day all
[21:05] <nohup> does anybody know any circuit simulation software for linux ?
[21:06] <nohup> as in something you can actually draw a schematic into and then simulate it ?
[21:06] <nohup> (just fairly simple circuits...)
[21:06] <nightsjammies> Ooh, that sounds like it'd be fun to play with.
[21:06] <nightsjammies> Does autocad do it?
[21:06] <nohup> and not ktechlab, cause that thing is totally and utterly useless
[21:06] <nohup> autocad ? for linux ? does it simulate electronic circuits ?
[21:06] <Guest45905> s
[21:07] <Losha> nohup: google knows....
[21:07] <nightsjammies> autocad for windows, I mean
[21:07] <AJC_Z0> apparle: I don't use KDE and don't know what tool the use to manipulate the RANDR X11 extension, but unless you use nVidia drivers that's what you want
[21:07] <nohup> no, google doesn't :)
[21:07] <nightsjammies> I wished autocad supported linux
[21:07] <genii> !info ksimus
[21:07] <nohup> google pointed me to stuff that SAIS it does... but you probably have to be a rocket scientist to actually do it
[21:07] <nohup> (as in, you write your circuit... instead of drawing it)
[21:08] <nohup> ubottu: that sounds interesting...
[21:08] <Losha> nohup: What about here: http://eece.ksu.edu/~khc/circuits.html
[21:08] <nohup> genii even :)
[21:08] <nightsjammies> The bot is lying nohup ;)
[21:08] <jonaskoelker> Hi all.  I'd like to use a japanese input method which respects my ~/.Xcompose.  Last I checked, SCIM didn't.  Does it now?  Does anything else?  Any suggestions?
[21:09] <genii> nohup: Apologies, for KDE, thought I was in Kubuntu channel.   Sorry, I don't understand japanese, but I'd like to study it
[21:10] <Losha> jonaskoelker: maybe  #ubuntu-jp can help. Not sure if they'll talk English to you....
[21:10] <guntbert> nohup: open synaptic, select section electronics - and browse through the apps if something fits you
[21:10] <nohup> genii: it's fine if it's for kde though :) i'll look into that ksimus thing (already tried apt-cache searching for circuit simulators though)
[21:10] <nohup> dunno how i missed that one
[21:11] <NerveClasp> Hi! I have a problem! it's not exactly about Ubuntu, but I don't know where to ask.. My usb flash drive fails to be seen by nautilus.. no physical damage was made, so I wonder if there is any software or way to bring the usb-flash drive to life? help
[21:11] <TimothyA> in which package is the command 'service'?
[21:12] <guntbert> NerveClasp: of course you pulled it and plugged it again :-)
[21:12] <jukebox-zero> Does anyone know if my lshw -C networks output lists my USB wireless device, but is just incredibly brief about it, if that could make my network slower. I'm connected, it's just kinda ... really slow. Like 802.11b, when I should be running b/g/n.?
[21:12] <jukebox-zero> Like can my system not be using that interface to it's fullest? How can I get more info on this?
[21:12] <nohup> hmm.. ksimus doesn't do electronic components either..
[21:12] <nohup> oh well
[21:12] <NerveClasp> guntbert: of course)) I even tried to plug it into windows operated laptop, but the reaction is still the same
[21:13] <nohup> will have to wait till i am back home and install illegal windows apps again ;)
[21:13] <gigawatt> if you add an entry to the sources.list, how do you get the GPG key
[21:13] <NerveClasp> guntbert: I would dig the Internet if I knew where and what to search..
[21:13] <guntbert> NerveClasp: if it isn't recognized in other computers too - bad news :-(
[21:14] <Losha> nohup: I thought spice was *the* circuit simulator....
[21:14] <NerveClasp> guntbert: please don't tell me that nothing can be done...
[21:14] <NerveClasp> guntbert: led on flash drive seems to respond, but..
[21:15] <Losha> NerveClasp: it's starting to sound like your usb flash drive died, to be honest....
[21:15] <guntbert> NerveClasp: ok I don't tell you - but I won't tell you anything else :-/
[21:15] <nohup> Losha: yeah.. and 'ngspice
[21:15] <nohup> Losha: yeah.. and 'ngspice' has a command prompt... not an interface to make schematics in
[21:15] <NerveClasp> Losha: and NOTHING (sorry for yelling=) can be done?
[21:16] <nohup> so i don't know what's up with that really :)
[21:16] <nohup> in windows you can indeed use spice to draw your stuff
[21:16] <Losha> NerveClasp: if linux can't see it, and windows can't see it, and the only thing in common between the two is the flash drive itself....
[21:17] <Dr_Willis> Hmm. does anyone recall the command to show what directories are 'shared' on a server.  Uploaded some stuff to a share. and cant find where they actually went. :)
[21:17] <chazco> Hi... Totem seems unable to play some of my videos... they load, the first few seconds play really fast (with no sound) then it just freezes (but doens't crash). Seems to be xvid. Any ideas? Used to use totem-xine but thats not available anymore
[21:17] <Losha> nohup: the web page mentions Spice3 and "has an interactive command interface and X11 graphics support", whatever that means....
[21:17] <spyderbite> plug it in to windows box and see.. that will rule out hardware failure.. tech support 101 really
[21:17] <guntbert> Dr_Willis: what kind of shares?
[21:18] <NerveClasp> Losha: sometimes in windows the button in tray appears. you know, the button that allows you to "safely disconnect the drive" like "unmount" function in nautilus. does that mean something? can I somehow see the list of usb drives connected to Ubuntu?
[21:18] <night_fox1> OK, so when I try and install the nvidia driver from their website, it complains that it can't find the kernel source.
[21:18] <nohup> Losha: hmm.. from what i've seen is that you have a command interfaace... and something that outputs some graphs and stuff
[21:18] <nohup> but i haven't actually seen 'components' in it..
[21:19] <nohup> but i'll check again :)
[21:19] <Losha> nohup: dunno, you're so far out of my field of expertise now that it's not funny....
[21:19] <Dr_Willis> guntbert:  samba shares. smbclient -L server   shows the share.. but  i want to know the exact path the server is shareing.
[21:19] <Isaban> !samba
[21:19] <fuxar> hi
[21:19] <NerveClasp> !usb
[21:20] <bdesk> Hey guys, I like the server edition of ubuntu, but I want more rows and columns in the terminal.  Can I do this somehow?
[21:20] <fuxar> updates
[21:20] <fuxar> i can't start xorg
[21:20] <NerveClasp> !internet
[21:20] <NerveClasp> !weather:Kyiv
[21:20] <guntbert> NerveClasp: try one thing: open a terminal, type tail -f /var/log/syslog     and then plug the stick - if you don't get any lines from that - ubuntu really doesn't see anything from it. afterwards you can close the session with <ctrl>c
[21:20] <fuxar> a update make xorg crash
[21:21] <Losha> NerveClasp: if you don't 'safely disconnect' you can get filesystem errors, but you said the thing doesn't even seem to be seen on windows or linux. Try what guntbert said above
[21:21] <git__> does anyone have problem with ACPI on Ubuntu 9.10?
[21:21] <nohup> Losha: hehe, that's ok... thanks for trying to help though
[21:21] <guntbert> Dr_Willis: ah samba - sorry you know more than I about that :-)
[21:21] <nohup> i've been looking for something actually usable in this field for years...
[21:21] <git__> most of the time when I put ubuntu in hibernation mode, it freezes
[21:21] <fuxar> I don't want purge linux
[21:21] <NerveClasp> guntbert, thank you) I'll try it. Losha, thanks=)
[21:21] <nohup> thinking "there's somany nerds coding on stuff out there, there must be ONE working on a electronics simulator"
[21:21] <nohup> :)
[21:22] <bdesk> there is pspice, right?
[21:22] <guntbert> NerveClasp: Good luck :-)
[21:22] <Dr_Willis> guntbert:  yea - theres proberly some command/option - i just cant seem to figrue it out
[21:22] <Losha> Dr_Willis: won't that be in the /etc/samba/smb.conf under path or some such....
[21:22] <titan_ark> hey I just installed karmic via wubi, and I cant seem to get the updates going
[21:22] <Dr_Willis> Losha:  not for user 'shared' directrories.. Not sure where those are stored at.
[21:22] <nohup> bdesk: for linux ? and will it allow me to actually draw circuits and then simulate then ?
[21:22] <nohup> them
[21:23] <Dr_Willis> Losha:  i got a share called 'archives' and it could be on any of 5 different filesystems. :)
[21:23] <bdesk> nohup: ya i think so, google it.
[21:23] <nohup> just did, there'sno such thing
[21:23] <titan_ark> any idea on how to get it going?
[21:24] <Losha> nohup: I agree, not many of them on #ubuntu however. Look for an electronics channel, maybe. And be prepared to find they're all using windows....
[21:24] <bdesk> nohup: http://www.gpleda.org/
[21:24] <tweakt> is it possible to use the python-apt library 'apt.*' api with a custom configuration, or do I need to stick to the low level 'apt_pkg' api?
[21:24] <Losha> Dr_Willis: well, now you know the disadvantage of that kind of setup, I guess....
[21:24] <nohup> Losha: they probably will.. for work i had to use vmware for about everything i needed :)
[21:25] <Losha> nohup: google says ##electronics. Worth a try...
[21:26] <sn[a]ke> is there a way to edit the default size of the terminal when you open it?
[21:26] <nohup> bdesk: i'll check that out too :)
[21:26] <nohup> Losha: okay :) will try :)
[21:27] <bdesk> sn[a]ke: yes there is i did it once, but i forget it.
[21:27] <bdesk> is there a way to use something like ubuntu server edition, except with a huge terminal?
[21:27] <parkandstop> how do i install a .iso file to a disk
[21:27] <sn[a]ke> hmm, I think im gonna switch over to gentoo... ultimate customization
[21:27] <NerveClasp> guntbert: It gave some output! It's alive a bit)) (about flash drive) how can I give you the output? I forgot that command
[21:27] <Losha> NerveClasp: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com
[21:28] <redrebel> i want to install windows in a virtual machine. which is better virtual box or vmware server??
[21:28] <sn[a]ke> parkandstop, burn it to a dvd/cd(depending on size) with a tool such as deepburner. pop it in and install
[21:28] <angeloskg> how to install yahoo messenger for my ubuntu ?
[21:28] <Needs_Hel> use piget
[21:28] <sn[a]ke> parkandstop, ofcourse after you restart you can install
[21:29] <guntbert> Dr_Willis: try with lsof | grep -i <sharename>
[21:29] <sn[a]ke> is there a way to edit the default size of the terminal when you open it?
[21:29] <guntbert> !pastebin | NerveClasp
[21:29] <Guest97486> redrebel: I like virtual box, especially if you want usb access

[21:30] <titan_ark> hey, could someone help me out on the updates? I just installed via wubi and cant seem to get the updates going
[21:30] <titan_ark> nor can I install any packages!
[21:30] <NerveClasp> any suggestions? it all stops there..
[21:30] <Losha> Dr_Willis: brute force search of all the filesystems by date or by name (if you know it)? It won't be fast...
[21:30] <guntbert> NerveClasp: I see - but I must tell you that I couldn't make anything of that - please ask the channel again
[21:31] <erUSUL> !details | titan_ark
[21:31] <jukebox-zero> angeloskg, You can download the installer from yahoo and install it using wine. Sometimes it works, other times it may install and then tell you it cannot access your network.
[21:31] <titan_ark> erUSUL, tried installing vlc and it says cannot find package
[21:31] <titan_ark> when i try update it cant connect to any of them
[21:31] <Losha> NerveClasp: it looks normal, except the most important bit is missing i.e. there should be a device name for you to access the device. I don't see it though :-)
[21:31] <ubuntu_> kadu
[21:32] <erUSUL> titan_ark: can you browse the internet? what's the exact error you get ?
[21:32] <titan_ark> yes I am on right now from the same notebook
[21:32] <Losha> NerveClasp: try sudo fdisk -l    <--- lower case L.
[21:32] <NerveClasp> Losha: can I somehow name the devise through terminal?
[21:33] <parkandstop> how do i install a .iso file to a disk with native linux software
[21:33] <nohup> hmm... got geda-gschem to actually display a schematic...
[21:33] <Losha> NerveClasp: no, the kernel is supposed to name it. try sudo fdisk -l
[21:33] <nohup> looks pretty prehistoric and no clue if there's any way to run a simulation thouhg... let's see... :)

[21:33] <richthegeek> hi all - I've got a problem where Rhythmbox is automatically renaming the artist of an album when I change it

[21:34] <erUSUL> titan_ark: try changing the mirror in sytem>admin>softeare sources first tab
[21:34] <NerveClasp> Losha: that command gave me the list of my logical disks on harddrive..
[21:34] <erUSUL> titan_ark: use main site or the mexico or canada mirror
[21:34] <CaBlGuY> anyone ..  is there a version with wicd package already built in?
[21:34] <Needs_Hel> bactrack
[21:34] <john> hi
[21:34] <Losha> NerveClasp: did the flash drive show up in the listing?
[21:34] <Needs_Hel> CaBlGuY; BackTrack 4
[21:35] <titan_ark> erUSUL: Okay, doing that.
[21:35] <CaBlGuY> BackTrack 4 ?  wussat?
[21:35] <Needs_Hel> it has wicd built in
[21:35] <titan_ark> erUSUL: Seems to be working, thanks :)
[21:35] <CaBlGuY> I was lookin for a Ubuntu build with wicd already in it
[21:35] <Needs_Hel> its the best linux distro ever
[21:35] <erUSUL> titan_ark: no problem
[21:36] <CaBlGuY> hmmmm  ok,
[21:36] <NerveClasp> Losha, /dev/sdb1               1<PHONE_NUMBER>    b  W95 FAT32
[21:36]  * CaBlGuY goes to lok up BackTrack 4
[21:36] <Losha> BackTrack 4 appears to be some kind of distro for penetration testing...
[21:36] <titan_ark> erUSUL: Tried Kubuntu yesterday and got it on after struggling an entire day. finally drivers and other issues made me give up
[21:37] <Needs_Hel> http://www.remote-exploit.org/backtrack_download.html
[21:37] <Losha> NerveClasp: the device name is /dev/sdb1. Can you mount it? sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt
[21:37] <nohup> oh well, looked at geda too
[21:37] <erUSUL> titan_ark: :| good luck with ubuntu then
[21:37] <nohup> they kinda admit there's nothing that has a usable gui :)
[21:37] <titan_ark> btw, is there  a problem with the USA repo?
[21:37] <sshinobi> dtv.org
[21:38] <salmon> umm i know this is a stupid question but... how do i run usb-creator
[21:38] <sshinobi> I'm trying to alter files on my nokia n800, and I'm running into a permissions issue, I'm thinking.
[21:38] <Losha> nohup: that's electronics types for you....
[21:39] <guntbert> salmon: you start it, select an iso file, select an usb device, ...
[21:39] <erUSUL> nohup: i've been using (for introductory curses nothing professional) LTSpice IV via wine (LTSpice is designed to run well on wine) with great success
[21:39] <sshinobi> I've downloaded an app, and I'm trying to run it, and it says permission denied.
[21:39] <NerveClasp> Losha, nope.. nothing. maybe it is not it.. wait, here the whole output http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d16db10a5
[21:39] <sshinobi> even though the terminal says I'm root.
[21:39] <salmon> guntbert, thank you
[21:39] <nohup> erUSUL: it runs on wine out of the box ? (don't have windows DDL's here)
[21:39] <erUSUL> nohup: yes
[21:39] <nohup> Losha: yeah i guess :)
[21:39] <guntbert> salmon: np - have fun :)
[21:39] <NerveClasp> Losha, some parts of it are unreadable, because I speak Ukrainian
[21:40] <nohup> erUSUL: that's neat... is ltspice free then ? :)
[21:40] <salmon> guntbert: oh i will
[21:40] <erUSUL> nohup: just download the exe doble click nex next done
[21:40] <Shazam> I'm encountering crashes. How can I enable logging of dmesg, and how do I enable the magic sysreq keys?
[21:40] <erUSUL> nohup: yes free as in beer
[21:40] <erUSUL> Shazam: all of this is already enabled
[21:40] <Shazam> erUSUL: .. how can you tell?
[21:41] <Needs_Hel> what are the restrictions with running windows programs in linux
[21:41] <nohup> oh well.. if not native... then wine is always a better option than vmware (especially on my simple intel atom laptop)
[21:41] <Losha> NerveClasp: well your English sounds native! And the fdisk looks correct (near as I can tell). So what happened when you typed: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt
[21:41] <Funnyface> just a quick question, I have a CD with the desktop ubuntu, but I can't be arsed with downloading and burning the ubuntu server ISO image just now. is it a lot of mess to convert ubuntu desktop into a usable server? :p
[21:41] <erUSUL> NerveClasp: do « LC_ALL=C sudo fdisk -l »
[21:41] <Funnyface> as in disabling all the unnecessary features, like X and gnome
[21:41] <erUSUL> Shazam: type dmesg on a terminal or press a syrq key combo and it will work
[21:42] <spyderbite> Wow.. a lot of media players (for watching DVD movies) to choose from.. anyone got a favorite?
[21:42] <Slart> Needs_Hel: restrictions? I don't know of any artificial restrictions.. vm's will run more stuff but they are slower.. especially when it comes to games/graphics ... wine works on some things.. see http://appdb.winehq.org for details about specific apps/games
[21:43] <Slart> Funnyface: not really.. you can still install the common server apps on the desktop version
[21:43] <Losha> Funnyface: that lazy way is to just install whatever server software you need and configure it. No need to bother removing X and gnome really....
[21:43] <NerveClasp> Losha, nearly nothing happened.. the drive is still somewhere in the middle of nowhere
[21:44] <Funnyface> well the computer is an old laptop with not that great specs so I'd rather not have any resource hog running in the background :P
[21:44] <Losha> NerveClasp: meaning the mount command hung? Or did it return? C'mon, help me to help you...
[21:44] <shey> Simple question I hope... I use Ubuntu on a Thumb Drive alot. I was wondering if I am 'sposed to keep it updated just like I would a real machine?
[21:44] <Funnyface> 2GHz celeron, 256MB shared with video card
[21:44] <NerveClasp> erUSUL: as I understood I had to type that string in my terninal? but the output was all the same
[21:44] <javatexan> if I install the nvidia version 185 in the "hardware drivers", I cannot login to my computer afterwards...the only way back seems to be sudo apt-get purge and then rm the xorg.conf.   I am running latest 9.10 Xubuntu with xfce
[21:44] <nohup> erUSUL: wow, this is the first thing so far that actually looks promissing
[21:44] <Slart> Funnyface: you can always shut down X after it's booted up.. that's what I do with my mini-itx server
[21:44] <nohup> thanks! :)
[21:44] <Funnyface> :P
[21:44] <NerveClasp> Losha: it returned
[21:44] <erUSUL> NerveClasp: it should print msgs in english.
[21:44] <javatexan> Forgot the question...help?
[21:44] <Slart> Funnyface: you can even uninstall X/Gnome if you want..
[21:44] <Funnyface> ok ty, I'll just go ahead and install the desktop one then
[21:45] <Losha> NerveClasp: now run df -h and pastebin the output
[21:45] <cdocbo> hey all, looking for recommendations on music players.  I've used amarok (didn't like kde and newer version) and banshee (takes too long to load mono deps)  What is like them but runs gtk?
[21:45] <sshinobi> I'm trying to run a program to flash my Nokia N800. The terminal says I'm root, but when I try to run the program with "./flasher-3.0—enable-rd-mode" it says that there  is no such file or directory
[21:45] <NerveClasp> LC_ALL=C sudo fdisk -l [21:45] <Slart> sshinobi: is the name correct? Ubuntu is caSE seNsiTivE
[21:45] <cdocbo> sshinobi, add a space after the 3.0?
[21:45] <keanu> hey guys - I had a failed hard drive, so i was booting off my USB drive for a while. got my new HDD back today, and right after installing it, went to boot off of my flash drive again
[21:46] <sshinobi> alright, I'll see what I can do.
[21:46] <NerveClasp> Losha, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d585d2db5
[21:46] <nigelcourtney> Hello, could a kindly person please advise how I might switch resolutions  on Ubuntu 9.10 with nvidia 1.73 drivers and after installing new mode in xrandr
[21:46] <yeason> keanu: check your boot options in your bios
[21:46] <sshinobi> permission denied. could it be because I"m running it as a livecd?
[21:46] <shey> sshinobi: chmod +x ./f...
[21:46] <Losha> NerveClasp: looks good. Now do ls -l /mnt
[21:46] <erUSUL> NerveClasp: here in my machine it makes the messages appear in english instead of the original spanish. that was as response to --> 22:39 < NerveClasp> Losha, some parts of it are unreadable, because I speak Ukrainian
[21:47] <keanu> yeason, checked, but I think it's worse - booted from another flash drive (4GB) without a problem, and plugged my original flash drive (16GB) in
[21:47] <stef1> I asked ap-get to install mscorefonts but it could not be installed, Now it attempts to install it every time I install something else, how can I stop that behavior?
[21:47] <trism> cdocbo: rhythmbox?
[21:47] <keanu> the LED on my 16GB flash drive flashes, but it doesn't mount, and i'm getting error -71 in dmesg (eproto)
[21:47] <Losha> erUSUL: that's ok.  It was a file permissions error.
[21:47] <sshinobi> thanks!
[21:47] <keanu> does eproto generally point to a dead device (flash drive)?
[21:47] <shey> no problem
[21:47] <jukebox-zero> nigelcourtney is there an option Nvidia something xserver settings in your administration menu?
[21:48] <javatexan> anyone else seeing similar behavior?  I login it looks like it is going to work and the returns to the login screen....
[21:48] <cryptk> damn i love the fact that I only have to reboot for kernel updates...
[21:48] <nigelcourtney> jukebox-zero:yes there is but the mode is not available
[21:48] <shey> javatexan: check the xorg log, /etc/X11/vorg.log I think, see if it has any errors.
[21:49] <shey> /etc/X11/xorg.log i meant
[21:49] <yeason> keanu: I'm not sure I follow what your problem is. What exactly do you need it to do and what is it doing in reality?
[21:49] <shey> I need to know if I should apt-ge tupgrade this USB FLashDrive.
[21:49] <shey> or not.
[21:49] <nigelcourtney> jukebox-zero:as in 640x480 is available etc but not 1024x768 even though when I type xrandr in console I see the mode is there, ( maybe not correctly but it is there )
[21:50] <git__> http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/CES/high-tech-sex-porn-flirts-cutting-edge/story?id=9511040
[21:50] <keanu> yeason, I need it to appear in lsusb and, well, mount. instead, dmesg is showing http://pastebin.ca/1743257 , the flash drive's usb is either blinking steady but moderately fast, or steady and rather slow
[21:50] <git__> wrong channel
[21:50] <guntbert> git__: not here please
[21:51] <NerveClasp> Losha, wait..  I had another flasdrive in my cardreader... here is the output again http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d14f536a8
[21:51] <slinkeey> Hi
[21:51] <Zorael> I'm trying to make sense of a bootchart (http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/475/jamiekubuntukarmic20100.png). Why is the kmix process grey?
[21:51] <afonit> has anyone solved the gnome-shell issue on ubuntu 9.10 that gives:  JS ERROR: !!!     message = 'Requiring Clutter, version none: Typelib file for namespace 'PangoCairo', version '1.0' not found'
[21:51] <slinkeey> Does Firefox automatically clear old objects in the cache?  I notice my cache only goes back a few days..
[21:51] <NerveClasp> Losha, I mean the sudo fdisk -l command
[21:51] <jukebox-zero> nigelcourtney, I'm not sure. I was looking for a way to pass resolution changes to the xserver without using the nvidia dialog but I haven't yet found it. I installed my driver and it kicked me down to such a low res I couldn't see any of the options to fix it.
[21:52] <yeason> keanu: ok, I'm not sure I'll be able to help you. I am wondering though, have you verified this drive works with another computer/OS?
[21:52] <kfizz> Is the only way to rate songs in rhythmbox thru the songs' properties? That seems like quite a few mouse clicks just to rate songs
[21:52] <NerveClasp> Losha, so it appears that no usb is seen.... accept my harddrive though)))
[21:52] <yeason> kfizz: I believe you can add the rating column to the display and then set it there
[21:53] <Losha> NerveClasp: notice how /dev/sdb1 has disappeared? That's because your new flashdrive doesn't respond to the system. I think it's dead but I'm too tired to go through it all again. Review what we did for the other flashdrive and try it with this one....
[21:53] <kfizz> yeason, I tried to do that, but couldn't figure out how to add columns. I tried right clicking on the column headings, but that didn't produce anything.
[21:53] <mo_money_manny>  /quit
[21:53] <yeason> kfizz: under Edit>preferences on the "general" tab there's check boxes for the columns to display
[21:53] <kfizz> yeason, it was in preferences, thanks.
[21:53] <yeason> kfizz: =)
[21:54] <kfizz> yeason, haha thanks. I've beenusing banshee for a while now and just now started using rhythmbox...two very different approaches to UIs
[21:54] <keanu> yeason, I tried it in another laptop running vista - it recognizes that a usb drive was attached, but then gives the "USB device not recognized" error
[21:54] <kfizz> yeason, thanks.
[21:54] <NerveClasp> erUSUL: Oh, i see the difference now))) thank you!)) Say Hi to Spain)) I study español in my university)))
[21:54] <kraitos> i'v been trying to pass-phrase my password and i don't seem to find any solid info on it, could anyone help me in pass-phrasing my password?
[21:54] <yeason> kfizz: not a problem
[21:55] <erUSUL> NerveClasp: ;P No hay de que
[21:55] <NerveClasp> Losha, thank you) sorry for all that))
[21:55] <Guest65472> how do I restore grub to boot my xp partition after removing the hard-drive with ubuntu on it, it now drops to a grub_recovery shell on boot
[21:55] <pkkm> My Ubuntu Karmic stops launching after "Checking battery state... done" (I tried to wait even five hours and still nothing). How to fix it?
[21:55] <yeason> keanu: sounds like there's either a problem with the drive itself or perhaps it hasn't been formatted. Do other usb drives work with ubuntu?
[21:56] <keanu> yeason,  yeah, i'm booting off of another usb drive now. i know it's formatted/partitioned, since i was using it earlier today
[21:56] <erUSUL> Guest65472: you have to restore windows bootloader. boot with windows installcd into the recovery console in that console run fixmbr
[21:56] <sh1va> hi guys.. i have a strange problem.. my disk seems to fill itself up but i dont know which application does that
[21:56] <erUSUL> Guest65472: more help with that in ##windows
[21:56] <sh1va> is there anyway i could check that?
[21:57] <erUSUL> sh1va: maybe some app or the kernel is spamming the logs hard. check the size of /var/log/
[21:57] <yeason> keanu: You may be booted from one but can you plug in and mount another usb drive you know to be working(verified with another computer)?
[21:57] <Guest65472> erUSUL, tried that, it asks for a floppy.. can i do it from linux-live cd?
[21:57] <kraitos> can anyone help me pass-phrase my password?
[21:58] <erUSUL> Guest65472: no that i know of... it should not ask for any floppy afaik...
[21:58] <yeason> keanu: if you have trouble with this drive in another OS that means the problem is most likely with that drive. Thus we want to be sure by checking if a different drive does work
[21:58] <acicula> kraitos: that doesnt make sense?
[21:58] <Guest65472> erUSUL, it tells me to insert floppy for the recovery console
[21:58] <sh1va> erUSUL, it isnt /var/log, already checked that... i'm affraid that it could be rootkit or smth
[21:58] <adam_g> where could i find and review the kubuntu-desktop postinst script?
[21:58] <erUSUL> sh1va: then use the disk use analizer to see where the space is going
[21:59] <sh1va> erUSUL, where can i find that utility?
[21:59] <erUSUL> Guest65472: it's been a long time since i've done this kind of things you should ask in ##windows for help with windows issues
[21:59] <acicula> sh1va: baobab
[21:59] <erUSUL> sh1va: Aplications>accesories>disk use analizer iirc
[21:59] <Guest65472> erUSUL, im trying to use grub though, can't i boot xp from grub, it used to work that way
[21:59] <NerveClasp> can someone else help me? Usb mount fail issue again.. here is the output of tail -f /var/log/syslog - http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d1ccb16c7
[22:00] <keanu> yeason, those are the only two flash drives i can find at the moment
[22:00] <keanu> tried the dead(?) flash drive in another computer though - also didn't work
[22:00] <Jordan_U> Guest65472: Follow http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide
[22:00] <erUSUL> Guest65472: yep but grub need files that where installed in the ubuntu partition ( /boot/grub/* ) no that those files are gone it can't work
[22:01] <yeason> keanu: ok, from the sounds of it I'm inclined to think there's a problem with your flash drive, not with ubuntu.
[22:01] <erUSUL> Guest65472: maybe using supergrubdisk to boot the winXP and fix the mbr from there
[22:01] <Guest65472> erUSUL, i think jordan_u has the idea, i can boot from live-cd and install grub2
[22:01] <keanu> yeason, yeah, i agree - have any tips for somehow recovering the data from the flash drive?
[22:01] <nohup> erUSUL: thanks again, this is exactly what i was looking for
[22:01] <sh1va> erUSUL, disk usage analyzer is too slow, is there any terminal command which could tell me what is modified latest on fs?
[22:01] <erUSUL> nohup: no problem
[22:01] <nohup> might not be native linux, but atleast it is working (and looks like it's working well, too :) )
[22:02] <NerveClasp> sudo fdisk -l  -- and no mentions about a usb devise in the listing of that command
[22:02] <erUSUL> sh1va: ls -t ?
[22:02] <Guest65472> Jordan_U, is that guide for a linux install though?
[22:02] <ooobooonto> hi
[22:02] <Guest65472> Jordan_U, am i following step 3 grub2 install?
[22:03] <Cube``> is there some nice software that allows me to quickly get down my thoughts/notes using VOICE? i know there is a voice recorder of course, but i'm looking for some more sophisticated software, that would allow organizing all that, maybe even syncing and making the notes searchable?
[22:03] <ooobooonto> i just installed ubuntu using wubi. because the actual installer hates me.
[22:03] <yeason> keanu: Since it doesn't appear to be showing up under /dev I don't know of anything you can do.
[22:04] <keanu> yeason, yeah, i'm kind of thinking the same =/
[22:04] <NerveClasp> is there any software to replace usb built-in software?
[22:05] <yeason> keanu: sorry to tell you that...  I've got to go afk for a bit, if you need further assistance someone else might be able to help you out
[22:05] <keanu> yeason, ok, thanks
[22:05]  * keanu should have made backups :P
[22:05] <karmst> hello
[22:06] <karmst> keanu I have a question about that
[22:06] <karmst> What is a good backup solution for Ubuntu?
[22:06] <iceroot> karmst: rsync
[22:06] <erUSUL> !backup
[22:07] <karmst> ok I've read that
[22:07] <ooobooonto> is there a version of 7zip for ubuntu?
[22:07] <git__> karmst, I use backintime
[22:07] <erUSUL> ooobooonto: yes;
[22:07] <karmst> But I was trying to find out real world experience what everyone uses
[22:07] <erUSUL> !find 7zip
[22:08] <Cube``> is there some nice software that allows me to quickly get down my thoughts/notes using VOICE? i know there is a voice recorder of course, but i'm looking for some more sophisticated software, that would allow organizing all that, maybe even syncing and making the notes searchable?
[22:08] <karmst> And is there a solution to do a total drive image but while in use?
[22:08] <ooobooonto> thanks.
[22:08] <karmst> that can be automated?
[22:08] <ooobooonto> i perfer 7zip over the archive manager. i used it in windows and i think its awesome
[22:08] <d0c> is this a ubuntu help channel?
[22:08] <d0c> an
[22:09] <Jordan_U> Guest65472: Since you are not using linux at all the chroot steps won't work ( or the grub-mkconfig )
[22:09] <erUSUL> ooobooonto: the ubuntu version is command line
[22:09] <git__> karmst, yup
[22:09] <NerveClasp> One last try) Help me! Is there any software for recovery of nearly dead usb devices????
[22:09] <erUSUL> !hi | d0c
[22:09] <ooobooonto> erusul: it is?
[22:09] <ooobooonto> how does that work?
[22:09] <git__> karmst, great thing about backintime is the snapshot feature
[22:10] <d0c> im trying to install Uduntu on a partitioned drive (called U) to play with.. i already have C for Windows7.. is this possible?
[22:10] <erUSUL> ooobooonto: yes; you can use file-roller as gui
[22:10] <git__> you can time snapshot every hour
[22:10] <erUSUL> d0c: yes
[22:10] <git__> most backup solutions I've seen posted here aren't that good
[22:10] <karmst> git have you performed a full restore using that before?
[22:10] <erUSUL> !dualbot | d0c
[22:10] <ooobooonto> erusul: oooh. ty
[22:10] <erUSUL> !dualboot | d0c
[22:10] <Guest65472> Jordan_U, so then just grub-install /dev/sda1 ?
[22:10] <git__> it doesn't provide for realtime data recovery
[22:11] <NerveClasp> oh well.. bye))) see ya'll next time I will fail to find the answer in google))
[22:11] <d0c> ive read that but the installer doesnt give me the option to choose other drives
[22:11] <d0c> just the main HDD
[22:11] <d0c> i have a few
[22:11] <karmst> Isn't there anything like backupexec or anything?
[22:11] <markrages1> hi all
[22:12] <ooobooonto> ok. all my compiz settings are set up =D
[22:12] <karmst> cp * -r /usr/local/bin
[22:12] <karmst> opps
[22:12] <karmst> wrong window
[22:12] <markrages1> can anybody help me with na easy peasy question?
[22:13] <ooobooonto> the only thing i really dislike about ubuntu 9.10 is the software manager. its a pain. but otherwise, i love it =D
[22:13] <fauxreigner_> Does anyone know what the deal with mounting NTFS partitions as normal users is?  I'm trying to edit my fstab to automatically mount a partition at boot and it's being problematic.
[22:13] <ardchoille> ooobooonto: That's being worked on :)
[22:13] <ooobooonto> ardchoille: yay. it gave me some problems trying to install stuff. but other wise its great. i perfer using terminal to install stuff anyway.
[22:14] <Pondus33> Hi, i am having some issues whit bluetooth under ubuntu 9.10. i installed blueman thingi, but i get this error: Bluez daemon is not running, blueman-manager cannot continue., any ideas ?
[22:15] <Funnyface> bleh the ubuntu installer freezes up when it starts the partitioner :\
[22:15] <acicula> Pondus33: does blueman-adapters show an adapter?
[22:15] <Funnyface> I'll go with plain debian then
[22:15] <Jordan_U> Guest65472: I'm having network issues
[22:15] <Guest65472> Jordan_U, alright. no problem
[22:15] <ooobooonto> funnyface: that used to do that to me
[22:15] <Jordan_U> Guest65472: If I don't respond for a while that is why
[22:15] <erUSUL> !ntfs | fauxreigner_
[22:15] <Guest65472> Jordan_U, did you get my previous message?
[22:15] <ooobooonto> and now my disc won't go past the screen that lets you choose if you want to boot into the installer or use the live cd. so now i use wubi.
[22:16] <Pondus33> acicula, dont see any icons of bluetooth no
[22:16] <Jordan_U> Guest65472: You will need to use grub-install --root-directory=/path/to/mountpoint/
[22:16] <markrages1> Hi, I am trying to use a cp2102-based usb-serial adpater with easy peasy (kernel 2.6.30) but I can't find the cp210x.ko driver
[22:16] <markrages1> is there another package I need to install?
[22:16] <Jordan_U> Guest65472: Then create a grub.cfg manually
[22:17] <MORPHEUS> salve
[22:17] <erUSUL> markrages1: in karmic is there /lib/modules/2.6.31-17-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/serial/cp210x.ko
[22:18] <Pondus33> Hi, i am having some issues whit bluetooth under ubuntu 9.10. i installed blueman thingi, but i get this error: Bluez daemon is not running, blueman-manager cannot continue., any ideas ? its dongle, no laptop
[22:18] <sn[a]ke> is there a way to get all backtrack tools on uibuntu???
[22:18] <sn[a]ke> *is there a way to get all backtrack tools on ubuntu???
[22:19] <markrages1> erUSUL: it's not in easy peasy
[22:19] <acicula> sn[a]ke: not really
[22:19] <acicula> sn[a]ke: not an wasy way anyway
[22:19] <erUSUL> markrages1: ask easypeasy devs then
[22:19] <Guest65472> Jordan_U, so what do you recommend I do then, im taking notes.
[22:19] <sn[a]ke> well did i ask for an easy way?
[22:20] <markrages1> erUSUL: ha!
[22:20] <kinja-sheep> sn[a]ke: If you're using BackTrack, you could !clone and figure out which packages are installed. It takes times though. Comparing packages but it is doable IMO.
[22:20] <sn[a]ke> kinja-sheep, thanks ill try...
[22:21] <Jordan_U> Guest65472: To just get windows booting again you can install the "mbr" package and run "sudo install-mbr /dev/sda" ( if sda is the drive you want to install to )
[22:21] <LetoThe2nd> sn[a]ke, if you had only once looked up the backtrack faq, you would have read that there's no way of doing with a reasonable amount of work.
[22:21] <erUSUL> markrages1: if they omitted the driver from the kernel build there is not much you can do
[22:21] <epinky> sn[a]ke: btw what version of BT?
[22:21] <erUSUL> !backtrack
[22:21] <markrages1> erUSUL: I was hoping they just packaged it separately
[22:21] <Guest65472> Jordan_U, alright sounds simple, um. is it just sda or sda1
[22:21] <Jordan_U> Guest65472: Just sda
[22:22] <erUSUL> markrages1: we support main ubuntu here. we can not keep track of changes of all derivatives
[22:22] <Guest65472> Jordan_U, ok, thank you so much, do i just then reboot?
[22:22] <Jordan_U> Guest65472: Yes
[22:22] <Guest65472> Jordan_U, ok, thanks alot for your time
[22:22] <erUSUL> markrages1: /j #easypeasy http://www.geteasypeasy.com/index.php?menu=help
[22:23] <Jordan_U> Guest65472: np
[22:23] <markrages1> erUSUL: ok, thanks for your help
[22:23] <dasunsru1e32> is there a way to visually monitor what another user is doing at the CLI through SSH?
[22:24] <dasunsru1e32> or even from the consoles
[22:24] <fauxreigner_> !FUSE
[22:25] <fauxreigner_> !ntfs-3g
[22:25] <Jordan_U> dasunsru1e32: Are they cooperating in your monitoring of them or are you trying to "spy" on people against their will?
[22:26] <dasunsru1e32> Jordan_U: considering it is MY server, it is nice to know what they are doing
[22:26] <dasunsru1e32> so either way
[22:26] <Jordan_U> dasunsru1e32: The former is easy to deal with and the latter i
[22:26] <dasunsru1e32> I would like to be able to jump in to help or to spy
[22:27] <dasunsru1e32> Ok, so how does it work?
[22:28] <diesel__> How do I change GDM themes in Karmic?
[22:28] <ardchoille> diesel__: Last I heard, you don't
[22:29] <ardchoille> diesel__: Last I heard, that functionality hasn't been implemented yet
[22:29] <Dr_Willis> diesel__:  its has minor things you can change.. or install the old gdm.. or not worry about it
[22:30] <Dr_Willis> dasunsru1e32:  there are replacement 'stty/login' commands that have logging/spy features.. thats abou all i know on the topic.
[22:31] <dasunsru1e32> Dr_Willis: thank you, that is all I needed to know. I can handle it from here. :-P
[22:32] <Jordan_U> dasunsru1e32: ... is harder to deal with and unless you have a banner clearly stating that you are doing it is not very nice :)
[22:32] <jMyles> I'm interested in setting up a hotspot - does it make more sense to use a linux box for this instead of a little router?  What is the point of doing so much computing in a little router if I have several linux boxes I can use?
[22:32] <tuxfiction> hello there, can someone help me find a solution for setting up a pptp-connection? I configured everything in the gnome connection manager, but when I try to start the connection just nothing happens...so first question: is there a way to get output messages of the network manager?
[22:32] <adam_g> where does aptitude store its install/post install scripts? id like to see what will happen in post-inst for 'apt-get install kunbuntu-desktop'
[22:32] <Jordan_U> dasunsru1e32: Sorry, I am having network issues so I may intermittently not be able to respond for a while
[22:33] <erUSUL> adam_g: those scripts com in the deb package afaik
[22:33] <Kieran0413> jMyles, have a look at NoCat
[22:34] <yeason> adam_g: would the simulate command for apt-get help out? it will basically show you what would happen if you were to run the command
[22:34] <Jordan_U> dasunsru1e32: In the first case you can use a utility called "screen" and have it automatically start at login ( by installing byobu and setting it up in the byobu menu or adding screen manually to the user's .profile )
[22:34] <adam_g> yeason, yea i was looking for such a thing.
[22:34] <yeason> adam_g: its -s
[22:34] <adam_g> yeason, thank you much
[22:34] <yeason> adam_g: np
[22:35] <Jordan_U> dasunsru1e32: They will be able to evade you by simply exiting screen but for hones people it is easy to setup and convienient for you to connect to their terminal at any time to help them out
[22:35] <dasunsru1e32> Jordan_U: good idea, but the user would still know
[22:35] <dasunsru1e32> ;-)
[22:35] <jMyles> Kieran0413: Looking :-)
[22:36] <Jordan_U> dasunsru1e32: I'm not sure I really want to tell you how to spy on terminals without user's knowing
[22:36] <acicula> dasunsru1e32: its pretty much illigal to monitor without consent
[22:37] <dasunsru1e32> I will figure it out on my own then, besides, it is my server that I own with my money, so I have the right to know what is happening at anytime on my server
[22:37] <yeason> acicula: unless you own the system and they agree to use it under your terms and conditions, iirc
[22:37] <dasunsru1e32> acicula: not if it's my property
[22:37] <dasunsru1e32> ;-)
[22:37] <acicula> yeason: dasunsru1e32 nope, wether you own it or not makes no difference
[22:37] <Jordan_U> dasunsru1e32: Yes you do, but you should be honest to your users and add a banner clearly stating that you are monitoring them
[22:37] <dasunsru1e32> Yep, it doesn
[22:37] <yeason> unless you put forth terms and conditions that state you own, control, and can do w/e the hell you want
[22:38] <ubuntu__> hhh
[22:38] <dasunsru1e32> yeason: I own and do what I want with my server
[22:38] <dasunsru1e32> I am not here to appease people
[22:38] <dasunsru1e32> I am not here to spy on people either
[22:38] <GeCk0> hi
[22:38] <GeCk0> is there any equalizer for alsa ?
[22:38] <dasunsru1e32> I just want a way to check in every once in awhile
[22:39] <Jordan_U> dasunsru1e32: And IANAL but I don't think you owning the server allows you to monitor the people using it without their knowlage
[22:39] <acicula> GeCk0: alsamixer, or just the normal sound icon , acces via right click
[22:39] <GeCk0> there is only a mixer, im looking for an equalizer
[22:39] <dasunsru1e32> Yes, it does, if I have given them SSH access, and I want to know what they are doing, I have every right
[22:39] <acicula> GeCk0: ow
[22:39] <yeason> dasunsrule32: you probably want to put a banner up warning that you reserve the right to do such, because I believe you can still come under fire despite owning the hardware
[22:39] <Jordan_U> dasunsru1e32: Only if you make it clear that you are doing as much
[22:40] <yeason> dasunsrule32: it's a bit of a gray area, but generally you can do what you see fit with your own system
[22:40] <dasunsru1e32> I know that
[22:40] <yeason> just making sure, =)
[22:40] <Jordan_U> dasunsru1e32: And it's immoral even if not illegal
[22:40] <dasunsru1e32> I don't spy on people, but I have sensitive data, and you never know
[22:40] <dasunsru1e32> Jordan_U: It's my data
[22:41] <Seveas> dasunsru1e32, if you don't trust people, don't let them access your box :)
[22:41] <dasunsru1e32> It's me or them, and it's them
[22:41] <dasunsru1e32> :-)
[22:41] <Jordan_U> dasunsru1e32: THen add a banner saying that all actions are logged and subject to monitoring
[22:41] <dasunsru1e32> I don't need to
[22:41] <dasunsru1e32> thanks for the input though
[22:41] <acicula> !ot
[22:41] <yeason> it would be a good idea
[22:41] <Jordan_U> dasunsru1e32: I'm not saying you shouldn't monitor, I'm saying you should be honest about it
[22:41] <dasunsru1e32> I am being honest
[22:41] <GeCk0> acicula:  ow ?
[22:42] <acicula> GeCk0: not you, not sure what you looking for tbh, whats the purpose of an equalizer again?
[22:42] <GeCk0> control basses and trebble
[22:42] <tuxfiction> hello...can someone tell me to what application the ubuntu gnome network manager applet is a frontend ?
[22:42] <GeCk0> frequences
[22:42] <acicula> oh like so
[22:42] <dasunsru1e32> thanks
[22:42] <yeason> GeCk0: I'm pretty sure there isn't one... I've been looking for ages
[22:42] <Seveas> tuxfiction, network-manager
[22:42] <acicula> tuxfiction: nm-applet, frontend for networkmanager etc
[22:42] <erUSUL> tuxfiction: NetworkManager
[22:42] <GeCk0> ok thanks, i was lokking for weeks, too
[22:43] <yeason> GeCk0: depending on what you want it for the program you're using might have one as a plugin
[22:43] <tuxfiction> why don't I find such a program?
[22:44] <GeCk0> yeason:  good idea, thanks, im using ubuntu on a laptop and the speakers need fine-tuning :)
[22:44] <benste> what's the what's  "radio killswitch" - log shows this triggers my wifi to disapear
[22:44] <tuxfiction> shouldnt there be a "networkmanager" binary somewhere? that I can run from console..?
[22:44] <yeason> GeCk0: if you're doing it for music playback I know rythmbox has an EQ plugin... it's not the best but it works in a pinch
[22:44] <Seveas> benste, that means you pressed the wifi switch on your machine
[22:44] <acicula> tuxfiction: its a service, think its called NetworkManager
[22:45] <erUSUL> tuxfiction: NM is a service it has no gui
[22:45] <benste> Seveas: the hardware one - I'm sure I didn't
[22:45] <GeCk0> yeason:  ok thanks, ill take a look on it
[22:45] <acicula> benste: rfkill list will show you
[22:46] <tuxfiction> well my problem is that the graphical network manager doesn't do what I would like and I get no error whatsoever..now my hope was to do the same from console and get some error output
[22:46] <GeCk0> yeason:  do you know the name of the plugin ? its not installed, right now
[22:46] <acicula> tuxfiction: what are you trying to achieve, what did you do, what happened, what did you expect to happen instead
[22:47] <Kamokow> Is it safe to remove the old kernel headers? Because every time i do the updates the old entries stay in grub, so i have a giant list of Ubuntu entries in grub...
[22:47] <erUSUL> Kamokow: it is safwe to remove old kernel. just make sure you have linux-image installed
[22:48] <Kamokow> thanks, so if I just preform like, computer janitor, its safe to remove the old ones that appear in the list?
[22:48] <tuxfiction> acicula, I tried to setup a pptp vpn connection in network manager applet. Did all settings, and when clicking on the newly created connection, just nothing happens. I expect it to open the pptp connection :)

[22:53] <acicula> yull: have you tried booting the recovery mode?
[22:54] <DreamDemon> I have a major prob
[22:55] <moparisthebest> I need a way to force a device to use high-speed usb (ehci_ucd) instead of full-speed usb (ohci_ucd), does anyone know of a way?
[22:55] <jonathan__> 't work for me, Therefor i wrote "how to modify it". I have a folder containing, lets say, 10 directories. Every directory contains another ten directories. And every of this directories contains files of different types. I would like to delete all png files in every subdirectory with only one command. thats what i meant...
[22:55] <moparisthebest> my tv tuner must use high-speed usb but most of the time ubuntu tries to make it use the slower full-speed and it won't work
[22:56] <erUSUL> jonathan__: already told you how to do it
[22:56] <moparisthebest> all of my ports are 2.0 though, and it has worked in the past, and works on a debian laptop

[22:56] <daftykins> i'm curious as to how to reduce the sensitivity of the buttons on my HTPC's remote
[22:56] <DreamDemon> I added a ext4 partition ( raid 5), mounted it & put it in fstab.  Can write to the dir... noone can execute files in that folder ( ie: steam, hldsupdatetool.bin).  I did a sudo chmod +x onthe files first after downloading them.  Server install is 9.10
[22:57] <erUSUL> DreamDemon: maybe it is mounted noexec ?
[22:58] <DreamDemon> ah - good point - lemme check
[22:58] <mauri> Im still continuing to receive this messegner when quassel starts "[NickServ] This nickname is registered. Please choose a different nickname, or identify via /msg NickServ identify <password>."   help me please

[22:58] <jonathan__> aah thank you
[22:58] <erUSUL> mauri: i recieve it too. it is normal afaik
[22:59] <mauri> erUSUL: tnk
[22:59] <holmser> I can't seem to get any quicktime movies to play for me, even with restricted-extras installed
[22:59] <acicula> mauri: means the nickname you are using is registered and you need to identify to the nickserver
[22:59] <DreamDemon> so now I would need to remount once fstab is updated correct?
[22:59] <erUSUL> holmser: maybe you need w32codecs from medibuntu
[22:59] <mauri> acicula: i dont know how
[22:59] <w00tz> How can I rebuild the Karmic kernel? There's a patch that was resolved and I want to be able to rebuild the kernel. Some of the tutorial I found are for Hardy/Heron, will it be any differnet?

[23:00] <DreamDemon> @w00tz: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/how-to-customize-your-ubuntu-kernel/
[23:00] <acicula> mauri: then you cannot identify to the nickserer anyway
[23:00] <w00tz> DreamDemon: Thanks.
[23:01] <Kamokow> Okay, is there other a way that I can manually edit Grub 2 entries, or downgrade to the old grub, the current grub's not allowing me to customize boot entries thing, is annoying me...
[23:01] <shivraj> uhh whats the name of the stable release ?
[23:01] <erUSUL> !karmic
[23:01] <mauri> acicula: ok even if i dont underwstand which is the differnt between registered or not
[23:01] <Jordan_U> Kamokow: You can add custom entires in /etc/grub.d/40_custom , what do you want to customize BTW?

[23:09] <courpse> ?
[23:09] <nightfrog> mac is not linux
[23:10] <DreamDemon> the core is based off BSD is it not?
[23:10] <iceroot> DreamDemon: mac is unix
[23:10] <del_diablo> !pulse
[23:10] <nightfrog> darwin
[23:10] <Kieran0413> BSD != Linux.
[23:10] <Kieran0413> And it's bastardised BSD at that.
[23:10] <del_diablo> !alsa
[23:10] <erUSUL> del_diablo: that reads use pulseaudio instead
[23:10] <adamonline45> DreamDemon: If anything it's BSD... but, not quite anymore :)
[23:10] <nightfrog> darwin is based on bsd
[23:10] <benste> adamonline45: guess not cause usually VNC session is on a per user basis, you may want to try remote login instead
[23:10] <del_diablo> erUSUL: Why is ESD removed and replaced with Pulseaudio that got broken defaults?

[23:12] <mauri> has someone tried the teletect with vlc?
[23:12] <del_diablo> tuxfiction: try dmesg
[23:12] <agliodbs> acicula: brand new machine, so no data
[23:12] <erUSUL> del_diablo: esd is obsolete the same way xmms1 is. it is not developed anymore nobody uses it. you either use pulseaudio or plain alsa this days
[23:12] <acicula> agliodbs: reinstall will definitly be faster then 3 distribution upgrades
[23:13] <tuxfiction> del_diablo, nothing either :(
[23:13] <agliodbs> acicula: given that the machine has no CD, what's the easiest way to do this?
[23:13] <nightfrog> tuxfiction: try tcpdump
[23:13] <acicula> agliodbs: usb stick
[23:13] <agliodbs> acicula: that's relatively easy?
[23:13] <del_diablo> erUSUL: Wikipedia claims ESD is GNOME only, what did KDE use?
[23:13] <Kieran0413> agliodbs, Installation from usb is pretty simple
[23:13] <acicula> agliodbs: install unetbootin, lets you create an usb stick by clicking
[23:13] <erUSUL> del_diablo: artsd
[23:13] <acicula> !usbstick
[23:13] <del_diablo> !artsd
[23:14] <erUSUL> del_diablo: but all this is old history :)
[23:14] <tuxfiction> nightfrog, tcpdump..thats quite low-level...isnt there some log file of the pptp program or something?
[23:14] <scott_ino2> tuxfiction, this might not help, but did you make sure you install the pptp support for network manager? Not sure if this is required but when i setup my vpn service i needed it.

[23:16] <acicula> Kamokow: you want to keep grub1 instead of the default?
[23:16] <erUSUL> wng-: mount the parition that holds the tw dirs then link them in the apropiate places or mount --bind them
