[00:00] <josephseraos> erUSUL, bastidrazor thank you! My connection is like a turtle
[00:01] <Cpt_Zyph> anyone know how i can fix my fresh install video problem ??
[00:01] <josephseraos> it will take some minutes
[00:01] <erUSUL> josephseraos: no problem
[00:02] <kv102t> did sudo apt-get update.i get error, how fix?
[00:02] <kv102t> E: Type ‘<html>’ is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list
[00:03] <Sdw195> how would you dual boot a notebook with ubuntu 10,10 and xp (already on it)
[00:03] <erUSUL> kv102t: check the sources file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list
[00:03] <Cpt_Zyph> is there a install peram i can enter so that x11 uses a lesser driver or something im stuck and not finding good links on google other then compuiz problems *(
[00:03] <erUSUL> kv102t: it has syntax errors
[00:03] <h4f> is there any plug in for empathy to handle more nicely  IRC ?
[00:03] <the_student> Cpt_Zyph: What is it?
[00:03] <coz_> Sdw195,  which did you install first?
[00:03] <Cpt_Zyph> what are some other ways to install so x11 dosnt try to start and im all bugged out.. even terminal view is messed up
[00:03] <h4f> currently I am seeing all joins in empathy
[00:03] <erUSUL> Cpt_Zyph: i think there is an option to boot with failsafe graphics (vesa ) in the boot menu
[00:03] <Blank> For Netbook Edition, what are the requirement(s) for getting the option to keep in launcher for the sidebar?
[00:04] <josephseraos> erUSUL, Hey, how do I put one user to work with the "sudo" command?
[00:04] <josephseraos> erUSUL, by default, in Debian, there is no user who can work with sudo... Understand?
[00:04] <Cpt_Zyph> the_student well on a fresh install with normal desktop 10.10 i cant use it because the gui is messed up so i downloaded the alt version and that does the old install .. b ut then when it boots its all scrambled and i cant make out anything on the screne
[00:04] <erUSUL> josephseraos: you are in debian?
[00:04] <Cpt_Zyph> erUSUL i thought so too atleast there was when i installed 10.04 but i wasnt seeing it on either of these.. did i use the wrong media?
[00:04] <kv102t> erUSUL: hold it. what is this list for?
[00:04] <kenneth_reitz> is there a way to have a username alias?
[00:05] <erUSUL> kv102t: it is what tells apt where to look for packages
[00:05] <Sdw195> coz_: xp
[00:05] <Sdw195> i havnt installed ubuntu yet
[00:05] <josephseraos> erUSUL, No, I'm not. But I have a desktop that uses Debian... I'm trying to get start with
[00:05] <Cpt_Zyph> which media calls for the lesser video graphics vesa on fresh install?
[00:05] <erUSUL> kv102t: the one that is wrong seems to be for playonlinux judging by the filename
[00:05] <bastidrazor> josephseraos: sudo adduser username admin ... that will add username to the group admin which allows sudo
[00:05] <coz_> Sdw195,   well when you install ubuntu  it will install grub  which will allow you to choose which operating system you want to use for that session
[00:05] <kv102t> erUSUL: all packages or just playonlinux. i don't use it.
[00:05] <erUSUL> Cpt_Zyph: i think the livecd has it in the boot menu
[00:05] <coz_> Sdw195,   I suggest you defrag windows xp  at least once  before installing ubuntu
[00:05] <the_student> Cpt_Zyph: Tough nut, repeat wo my username and see if someone else knows
[00:05] <Cpt_Zyph> humm
[00:05] <kv102t> i don't want it so this list is void to me..
[00:06] <erUSUL> kv102t: the one that fails is the playonlinux one
[00:06] <Blank> The main sources file is /etc/apt/sources.list, I think.
[00:06] <MarkAng> Hey there, fine fellows! I'm having a weird little problem. It's not a problem that needs immediate solving, but a little help might be useful. Anybody up for helping? Just let me know.
[00:06] <kv102t> how can i stop it looking at this list?
[00:06] <erUSUL> kv102t: the error cearly states as much E: Type ‘<html>’ is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list
[00:06] <coz_> MarkAng,   well it would be easier for smeone to help if you tell us the problem :)
[00:06] <erUSUL> kv102t: remove the file if you do not use it
[00:07] <MarkAng> Haha, was wondering when the first would say that XD
[00:07] <erUSUL> kv102t: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list
[00:07] <Cpt_Zyph> erUSUL ooo.. i normal try to avoid the live disks but i guess that would be ok .. so get live disk .. boot then do install to system once in gnome?? or can i do a install from fresh boot before going into live session?
[00:07] <erUSUL> kv102t: then run « sudo apt-get update »
[00:07] <josephseraos> bastidrazor, look: I don't have to create a new user. There is one user by default too. But, to run apt-get, I have to change user to -> su <- (root)
[00:07] <kv102t> erUSUL: i still get error
[00:07] <MarkAng> Every so often, my Ubuntu 10.10 produces the weirdest graphical glitch, where all the fonts get messed up (sometimes beyond readable) and it won't do stuff like hibernating.
[00:08] <Sdw195> coz_: i recently installed 10.10 on my desktop and couldnt  get it to run on the same drive as xp
[00:08] <erUSUL> kv102t: post the error you get
[00:08] <bastidrazor> josephseraos: the command i gave will NOT add a user. it will add the user to the group admin.
[00:08] <erUSUL> !paste | kv102t
[00:08] <kv102t> Error: Page cannot be displayed. Please contact service provider for more details. (3)
[00:08] <josephseraos> bastidrazor, very nice.
[00:08] <MarkAng> Usually I reboot, but I'm currently working on a project in a Flash app, and when my laptop shuts down all work is lost.
[00:08] <kv102t> this is in the html
[00:09] <coz_> Sdw195,   that's odd...  unless the ubuntu cd  is corrupted...it should have allowed  you to set the size of the partition for ubuntu  and then install grub for you to choose
[00:09] <njbair> I have a flash drive that I can't unmount because the gvfsd-tra command is keeping it busy.
[00:09] <erUSUL> kv102t: what html ?
[00:09] <kv102t> playonlinux.list contains html
[00:10] <MarkAng> coz_, are you still there?

[00:10] <kv102t> <meta name="robots" content="noarchive" />
[00:10] <kv102t> <meta name="googlebot" content="nosnippet" />

[00:10] <FloodBot2> kv102t: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:10] <erUSUL> kv102t: just remove the file

[00:10] <MarkAng> :-[
[00:10] <erUSUL> kv102t: where did i told you to open it ?
[00:10] <Sdw195> coz_: i tried to  manually tell it the partition layout but it didnt like the one i set it to
[00:11] <Blank> Unless I missed the answer, how do you get the option to keep a running program in the launcher for Netbook Edition?  It is for a program extracted from an archive rather than installed through package manager.
[00:11] <mzawieska> hey I am runing ubuntu. But also I installed virtualbox where is windows xp installed. When i plug usb devices such as usb stick its not showing it? what can i do
[00:11] <nofrillz> its not showing in ubuntu?
[00:11] <Cpt_Zyph> erUSUL were is the live ed download?? im not seeing it on the ubuntu site
[00:11] <nofrillz> or in vb?
[00:11] <MarkAng> Every so often, my Ubuntu 10.10 produces the weirdest graphical glitch, where all the fonts get messed up (sometimes beyond readable) and it won't do stuff like hibernating. Usually I reboot, but I'm currently working on a project in a Flash app, and when my laptop shuts down all work is lost.
[00:12] <MarkAng> ANybody got a clue what I'm doing wrong/could do to prevent this?
[00:12] <MarkAng> Anybody*
[00:12] <mzawieska> no its not showin on the vbox where i have installed windows xp
[00:12] <Fraxtil> Is there a way to toggle caps lock from the terminal? I've mapped it to another key but there are some (rare) cases where I need to use it.
[00:12] <nofrillz> did you enable usb support when you installed virtualbox?
[00:13] <Blank> MarkAng - My only guess would be video driver related, but that's not much help.
[00:13] <KM0201> mzawieska: what version of virtualbox did you install?
[00:13] <MarkAng> Heh, no.
[00:13] <kv102t> erUSUL: deleted all fine now thanks
[00:13] <nofrillz> Fraxtil, I would remap that key to Shift+CAPS, and leave caps-lock alone
[00:13] <nofrillz> or vice versa
[00:13] <sam___> hi can anyone help?
[00:13] <mzawieska> how can i check what version i am running
[00:13] <josephseraos> bastidrazor, when I put su, and put the password, I entered like root.. So, I put you command: adduser joseph adm (do not have admin) and it returns -> joseph is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported
[00:13] <MarkAng> But that does sound logically. Usually it works just fine, I can view movies, run all kinds of graphical content and such no problem
[00:13] <nofrillz> virtualbox -> about
[00:14] <erUSUL> Cpt_Zyph: the normal desktop cd is the livecd
[00:14] <bastidrazor> josephseraos: use the account you created when you installed the OS.
[00:14] <thauriswulfa> QUESTION: I have  a analog modem with 15 kbps d/w anybody know best way to optimise its speed , like small browsers or something
[00:14] <nofrillz> how long does it usually take to generate a new personal PGP key?
[00:15] <nofrillz> thauriswulfa, try a text browser
[00:15] <tyler_d> mzawieska: from a terminal type                       lsb_release -a
[00:15] <erUSUL> nofrillz: depends on the entropy of the system and on the key kenght. but shouldn't be much
[00:15] <thauriswulfa> nofrillz: suggest one?
[00:15] <KM0201> tyler_d: thats not gonna tell him what version of vbox he's using
[00:15] <erUSUL> nofrillz: move the mouse around
[00:15] <fredd> is the remastersys still available ?
[00:15] <Cpt_Zyph> erUSUL aa that one is nto working.. when it boots the menu is in the botom left corner and i cant read anything.. is there a way to stop its default startup scripts or something so i can pick the versa install??
[00:15] <Cpt_Zyph> erUSUL or use the alt desktop cd to do the same thing etc?
[00:15] <nofrillz> i feel retarded
[00:16] <nofrillz> im erradically moving my mouse around on the screen
[00:16] <josephseraos> bastidrazor, ok, I add the account in "sudo" group, with the adduser command
[00:16] <tyler_d> KM0201: oh sorry, only saw, "(08:13:44 PM) mzawieska: how can i check what version i am running"
[00:16] <nofrillz> sp on that
[00:16] <EnigmaticCoder> Can someone tell me why this awk command used to give me the last occurance of an irclog but no longer works? http://paste.ubuntu.com/557006/
[00:16] <bastidrazor> josephseraos: you're sure you're using ubuntu? no admin group?
[00:16] <Blank> MarkAng - So things only foul up when doing specific things, or does it seem completely random?
[00:16] <erUSUL> nofrillz: well typing here should genrate entropy too ;P
[00:16] <nofrillz> alright
[00:16] <nofrillz> well i was trying to make one so I could sign the Ubuntu code of conduct thing
[00:17] <josephseraos> bastidrazor, I saw in Debian
[00:17] <nofrillz> and this is the longest anything has taken on thisOS
[00:17] <mzawieska> tyler
[00:17] <nofrillz> this OS*
[00:17] <iflema> nofrillz: just leave it and do something else or ever on a editor and type random words, just do something else and get back to it....
[00:17] <josephseraos> I'm using Ubuntu this laptop, and a Debian in a Desktop
[00:17] <KM0201> mzawieska: youd on't need to run that command he gave you, its not going to tell you anything you need to know at this point
[00:17] <sam___> can anyone help?
[00:17] <deltaray2> How can I set service process options/flags in Ubuntu.  For instance, on redhat, you can usually edit the service config file in /etc/sysconfig/servicename
[00:17] <nofrillz> I was merely curious is all
[00:17] <MarkAng> Blank It seems completely random, but it almost always occurs when I'm working on said Flash app (Pimp My Gun 0.6 if you're curious) and I enter hibernation. When I come out of hibernation it usually happens.
[00:17] <nofrillz> bam
[00:17] <erUSUL> EnigmaticCoder: /join #awk
[00:17] <nofrillz> that sentence I typed, finished it
[00:17] <EnigmaticCoder> good idea, ty
[00:18] <nofrillz> :D
[00:18] <iflema> nofrillz: do somethingelse on the compuiter that is....
[00:18] <bastidrazor> josephseraos: you should ask for help on debian in #debian
[00:18] <nofrillz> also for text browsers
[00:18] <nofrillz> I have no clue on any of them
[00:18] <MarkAng> Well, not almost always, but it usually happens after hibernating like 3 times or so in a row.
[00:18] <nofrillz> so google :)

[00:18] <KM0201> mzawieska: ...
[00:19] <KM0201> mzawieska: are you gonna listen or just post mindless drivel.. that is irrelevant to your problem
[00:19] <Cpt_Zyph> erUSUL is it some other options i can pick from the install screen .. acpi=off or noapic or edd=on something like that to make it dumb down the video drivers?
[00:19] <bastidrazor> josephseraos: the command i gave will work for Ubuntu. i would not recommend it in Debian. ask in #debian
[00:20] <Cpt_Zyph> erUSUL i cant boot to the non alt desktop disk and see anything at all on this laptop so im guessing i should have a similar option on this alt desktop disk as well im just not seeingit like i used to on the 10.04 disks
[00:20] <MarkAng> So yeah.
[00:20] <sam___> can anyone help me please
[00:21] <ZykoticK9> !ask | sam___
[00:21] <MarkAng> State your problem first, then members who know the solution will share it with you.
[00:21] <Blank> MarkAng I don't know enough to help, though maybe something flash related.  I'd think it would happen with anything if it was something like memoey of a hibernation problem.
[00:21] <erUSUL> !boot

[00:21] <sllide> is there a gui for SVN?

[00:21] <tyler_d> sllide: yes there is... can't think of the name... 2 secs
[00:22] <MarkAng> Hey, at least you tried, Blank.
[00:22] <nofrillz> alright
[00:22] <MarkAng> Maybe another with more intimate knowledge of the problem will help.
[00:22] <nofrillz> quick question

[00:23] <sllide> do they both work for usbversion?
[00:23] <sllide> -u
[00:23] <sllide> err, subversion
[00:24] <tyler_d> sllide: they are all pretty finicky however do work, if I recall I installed and used all of them with no real static success.... kdesvn worked well though from what I recall
[00:24] <suqa> Could I get GRUB's "bash-like" to boot a USB?
[00:24] <sllide> ill look into it, thanks :)
[00:24] <sacarlson> sllide: git is another type of subversion,  I don't think they work together but you can port from one to the other
[00:24] <MarkAng> Anyone got anything on my problem?
[00:24] <josephseraos> bastidrazor, I have 3 broken packages
[00:24] <josephseraos> erUSUL, bastidrazor I have 3 broken packages
[00:24] <n3kr0n> please please help me...
[00:25] <sam____> anyone any ideas?
[00:25] <nofrillz> unless theres a new driver MarkAng I would suggest not getting too caught up in your work
[00:25] <tyler_d> sllide: rapidsvn was the other one...
[00:25] <n3kr0n> well... I have a hd hooked in my usb.. and I was copying some files to it.... suddenly it stoped... I rebooted my windows and when I opened up my hd... voilà, corrupted ntfs... I repaired with windows 7 app... but unfortunately all my files disapeared...

[00:25] <n3kr0n> I came to ubuntu to try to fix it.... but too late... windows recoved my ntfs disk file system and I cant use ntfsundelete
[00:25] <thauriswulfa> QUESTION: if anybody can tell me the best ways to optimize the analog modem internet ,,,,,,,,,??????like proxy , or some kind of browser
[00:25] <nofrillz> n3kr0n, try Recuva?
[00:25] <n3kr0n> but I can see that I have +- 40GB of data that I have to save...
[00:25] <MarkAng> Heh, I usually do. Thanks anyway guys.
[00:25] <n3kr0n> nofrillz, recuva?
[00:25] <n3kr0n> not yet
[00:25] <tyler_d> thauriswulfa: try utilizing a smallish browser, ie. Chrome
[00:25] <nofrillz> recovers files for ntfs
[00:26] <nofrillz> thauriswulfa, try Lynx
[00:26] <tyler_d> thauriswulfa: your doing well if you got an analog modem working though..... be thankful
[00:26] <n3kr0n> and what is the name of the package?
[00:26] <sllide> thanks :)
[00:26] <nofrillz> theres not one for linux

[00:32] <Firefishe> I'm using ubuntu/kubuntu 10.10 LTS.  I have two users, myself, and my wife.  I'm having an issue with the balance controls for my side.  When I log in, my balance control is always to the far left, and I have to use the gnome-sound-properties dialog to correct it, regardless of whether I'm using kde or gnome.  My wife's side does not have this issue.  What might be the problem?

[00:37] <Firefishe> ;)
[00:37] <sitescripter> does anyone know an easy way to reduce the bit depth of the screen?  i think it's running at 24 or 32 bit color depth.  i'd  rtfm more, but my eyes recently became very light sensitive, and reading is hard on the screen. i'm hoping reducing the color depth might help reduce the contrast.  i'm using ubuntu/gnome/and ati/"amd proprietary fglrx graphics drivers" .  mostly the default ubuntu 10.10 install.

[00:38] <randomcake> Hi, I'm running a dual boot system, with Ubuntu 10.10 and Windows 7 HP, can symbolic links be created that will work across Windows and Linux? Or are NTFS junctions incompatible?
[00:38] <Hilikus> how do i upgrade the alsa drivers?
[00:38] <bthornton> I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 . Sometimes when I log in, my GNOME desktop looks like the theme has changed (i.e. it's not doing theming). How do I fix this (without logging out)?
[00:38] <bthornton> as I recall, this is a gconfd issue
[00:39] <nofrillz> ubuntu cant write to ntfs by default
[00:39] <josephseraos> the problem is in libc package
[00:39] <nofrillz> and the sym link structure is different per os I believe
[00:39] <hansw> sitescripter, sytem -> preferences -> monitors
[00:40] <aeiou> i've done: 'sudo aptitude install postfix telnet mailx'  but i am unable to send mail from cli (i.e 'mail' program seems to be missing)
[00:40] <aeiou> how do I install it?
[00:40] <Firefishe> nofrillz: might you have an inkling on my aformentioned balance control issue?
[00:40] <nofrillz> I have no clue bro
[00:40] <Firefishe> nofrillz: cool...thanks anyway
[00:40] <nofrillz> im a sound newb when it comes to linux
[00:40] <sacarlson> sitescripter: I'm not sure about the color depth but themes can change the look and colors used, System>Preference>Apperance
[00:40] <nofrillz> i just got sound working yesterday
[00:40] <Firefishe> nofrillz: It's some type of config file, but I just can't figure out which one
[00:40] <hansw> nofrillz, windows is not able to understand symbolic links the way linux creates them
[00:41] <randomcake> nofrillz: is there a package that will be able to write a sym link that windows will be able to read? I want to move the 'users' directory, which I don't think will work while Windows is running
[00:41] <josephseraos> Errors were encountered while processing:  /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.8_amd64.deb
[00:41] <nofrillz> randomcake: see what hansw said
[00:41] <meco> What application do I use to unpack a .IMG file?
[00:41] <nofrillz> if there is a package, I have no clue what its called
[00:41] <nofrillz> .IMG = disk image
[00:41] <nofrillz> iso mounter probably
[00:42] <nofrillz> josephseraos, what errors
[00:42] <razz1> are there any good wireless keyboard mouse for ubuntu. I know that logitech's wireless encryption does not work in linux, looking for a new pair, wondering  should I bother with wireless or just get USB ones.
[00:42] <randomcake> okay, hmm, wonder if it's a soft or hard link...
[00:42] <KM0201> nofrillz: gmountiso will mount ISO images, if thats what you're asking for
[00:42] <nofrillz> Well ususally when they can mount ISO images, they can mount IMG images as well
[00:42] <nofrillz> in my experience that is
[00:43] <slixxor> hey all
[00:44] <sitescripter> sacarlson, thanks for the tip, but i want something that will tone down everything, graphics included. and web pages, and application gui's etc... something global. the settings are probably in a text file somewhere but i'm hoping for a gui tool.
[00:44] <sitescripter> hansw, thanks i'll check there
[00:44] <nofrillz> sitescripter, you think about turning down the brightness of the screen itself?
[00:45] <sitescripter> hansw, no color depth settings.
[00:45] <chrislustic> Hollaaaa all
[00:45] <sitescripter> nofrillz, yes, i have. it helps a lot, but the contrast is still too overbearing.
[00:45] <nofrillz> :/
[00:45] <yeats> josephseraos: can you post the full output of 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade'? (paste at http://paste.ubuntu.com/ )
[00:45] <chrislustic> I used to work at nofrillz
[00:45] <meco> KM0201: Is that the only app for making a .IMG file playable?
[00:45] <sitescripter> i had sudden vision changes. it's cut into my career a bit (i'm a javascripter mostly). makes the screen hard to see
[00:46] <nofrillz> sitescripter, i think theres some sort of accesibility option for that
[00:46] <KM0201> meco: no, i thought you wanted to mount the IMG so you could browse it... are you trying to install it t a drive so you can boot it?
[00:46] <n3kr0n> nofrillz, "recuva estimated time: 15 hours" :P I hope it works...
[00:46] <sitescripter> nofrillz, thanks. i'll check
[00:46] <nofrillz> np and goodluck
[00:46] <chrislustic> Could someone help me speed my fan up?
[00:46] <meco> KM0201: It's a video that I want to play
[00:46] <nofrillz> meco, is the IMG file a disk image, or some sort of media?
[00:47] <nofrillz> omg
[00:47] <nofrillz> forget mounting it
[00:47] <nofrillz> download vlc
[00:47] <meco> I have vlc. Can it play the .IMG file directly?
[00:47] <nofrillz> probably
[00:47] <txdv> yeah
[00:47] <nofrillz> if not there should be a codec for it
[00:47] <meco> ok.. I thought it couldn't..
[00:47] <nofrillz> which vlc would prompt you to install
[00:48] <Firefishe> What config file does gnome (with PulseAudio) use for it's sound configuration?  I'm looking for the default balance control settings upon login.
[00:48] <Chilaquiles> Hey I need to install x-lite on ubuntu has anyone installed it succesfully?
[00:48] <meco> great!  appreciate the help :-)
[00:48] <txdv> if the img has a valid dvd format in it
[00:48] <chrislustic> Does anyone know anything about speeding up fans?
[00:48] <Chilaquiles> Hey I need to install x-lite on ubuntu with no luck has anyone installed it succesfully?
[00:48] <nofrillz> :)
[00:48] <nofrillz> chrislustic, check your BIOS settings
[00:48] <nofrillz> on boot
[00:48] <meco> txdv: Likely it has
[00:48] <nofrillz> press F1
[00:49] <nofrillz> wtf is x-lite?
[00:49] <chrislustic> Nofrillz my fan works fine,  I am on an IMAC, and when I boot mac I have my fan upto 3500 rpm, but when I boot linux, it's slow It gets quite hot after a while.
[00:49] <nofrillz> hmm
[00:49] <nofrillz> no clue then chris
[00:50] <chrislustic> I just want to speed it up while linux is booted,    there are apps Ive read about,  but technicality is to much for me I am a linux noob for now,
[00:50] <Chilaquiles> nofrillz: google: x-lite
[00:50] <TomV-415> I've got two problems I could use some help with.. They may be related, I'm not sure.  Somehow, I managed to upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04 beta instead of 10.10..what's the best way to rolll back? 2. My  diplay is screwed up in an odd way.. Is it horizonal refresh or something easy to fix ( see screen shot here: http://www.dropbox.com/gallery/5405758/1/ubuntu-problem?h=984adc )
[00:50] <nofrillz> voIP soft phone?
[00:51] <TomV-415> Do you think my issues are related?
[00:51] <bastidrazor> Chilaquiles: google install x-lite ubuntu
[00:51] <nofrillz> yes
[00:51] <TomV-415> (box is Dell Latitude)
[00:51] <Chilaquiles> bastidrazor: I already did
[00:51] <nofrillz> rollback = save files to other location
[00:51] <nofrillz> reformat
[00:51] <nofrillz> install 10.10
[00:51] <Chilaquiles> nofrillz: yes is a soft phone
[00:51] <Chilaquiles> nofrillz: yes is a soft phone, but is for windows no for linux
[00:51] <yeats> TomV-415: what does 'cat /etc/lsb-release' tell you?
[00:51] <TomV-415> nofrillz: reformat?
[00:52] <chrislustic> wow tom v415, in that case I would fresh install 10.10, if you have your stuff,  you could also use an archiver to save your stuff
[00:52] <nofrillz> Chilaquiles, http://www.uluga.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=970373
[00:52] <yeats> TomV-415: (that will tell you the version you're on)
[00:52] <KM0201> TomV-415: you very likely did not upgrade to 11.04   if you went to system/about... .the "about" for ubuntu 11.04, bot accidentally pulled into ubuntu 10.10 a while ago... do what yeats is telling you to confirm your ubuntu version
[00:52] <aeiou> package requireed for mail?
[00:52] <HunterBukowski> Ubuntu freezes at "Updated DMI   GRUB"  Any ideas why?  I looked into my BIOS because that's the only clue I found in researching
[00:53] <nofrillz> did you update your grub?
[00:53] <nofrillz> update-grub in terminal
[00:53] <Kingsy> ok, anyone around/not busy to talk to me about repos and software sources?
[00:53] <HunterBukowski> also, it won't boot from the cd, only flash
[00:53] <chrislustic> anyone here running ubuntu 10.10 on laptop or imac?
[00:53] <sitescripter> nofrillz, i cannot see any color bit depth settings anywhere.  does anyone have a clue where to look here. i prefer a gui tool, but if i have to i'll edit config files.
[00:53] <TomV-415> yeats: Hey, you are right!  I'm on 10.10, but about tells me I'm on 11.04 beta!  DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
[00:53] <Chilaquiles> nofrillz: I know you just searched for it without seeing if the links work, but is too old that there are no links that work

[00:53] <sitescripter> anything to get working productively again
[00:53] <TomV-415> KM0201: right you are.  Thanks!
[00:53] <KM0201> TomV-415: don't flood... thats because the "about" on 10.10 got accidentally screwed up a while ago.. it's not a critical issue.
[00:54] <ny51bern> any1 have experience with Dropbox?
[00:54] <TomV-415> KM0201: oops, sorry, will not to that.
[00:54] <KM0201> TomV-415: now, we know you're using 10.10... what was the other issue?
[00:54] <sitescripter> ny51bern, i do, what's up?
[00:54] <nofrillz> sitescripter, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=268150
[00:54] <Kingsy> like for example, for some reason, ubuntu installed "namoroka" over the top of firefox. how do I uninstall that and reload firefox?
[00:54] <HunterBukowski> nobody knows why computer freezes at "GRUB" ?
[00:55] <sitescripter> ny51bern, i'm checkin the link...
[00:55] <nofrillz> apt-get remove namoroka
[00:55] <nofrillz> apt-get install firefox
[00:55] <Kingsy> nofrillz: it says "package not found"
[00:55] <TomV-415> KM0201: my montior looks horrible now.  Take a look a the screen shot to see what I'm seeing.  Text renders fine, but there's this very odd pixel stuff by the mouse error, and in the icons.
[00:55] <ny51bern> sitescripter: having a little issue. My folder syncs on my desktop, but I cant get the icon to get on my top taskbar...therefore, I can't really edit my settings
[00:55] <Kingsy> I will try it again.. 1 sec
[00:55] <nofrillz> on which one?
[00:55] <nofrillz> namoroka?
[00:55] <sitescripter> nofrillz, i dont' know how i missed that, but i'll take it from here. looks like a bit of reading. thanks.
[00:56] <nofrillz> np
[00:56] <KM0201> TomV-415: i didn't see a screenshot.
[00:56] <Kingsy> nofrillz: yup, package not found, namoroka
[00:56] <Kingsy> but its installed, I am looking at it right now
[00:56] <TomV-415> KM0201: hmmm let me check the  link aain.
[00:56] <nofrillz> namoroka is ff 3.6
[00:56] <nofrillz> its a codename
[00:56] <GeekMan> so i have a small issue with my speakers on my laptop maybe some one can help direct me to the cause of the problem?
[00:56] <sitescripter> ny51bern, hmm.. can't help you. sorry. maybe dropbox has seen this already?
[00:56] <Kingsy> nofrillz: yea I would prefer to not use a pre release
[00:56] <yeats> TomV-415: you could try moving/renaming ~/.gnome2, then logging out and logging back in
[00:57] <yeats> TomV-415: sometimes GNOME settings don't work correctly through upgrades
[00:57] <andai> When I press enter in Mousepad nothing happens.
[00:57] <Kingsy> I am guessing thats what it is
[00:57] <nofrillz> I would apt-get remove firefox
[00:57] <nofrillz> and then purge it
[00:57] <nofrillz> and then reinstall
[00:57] <Kingsy> purge it?
[00:57] <TomV-415> KM0201: Screenshot is here: http://www.dropbox.com/gallery/5405758/1/ubuntu-problem?h=984adc, look at the icons and stuff, whic look corrupted..
[00:58] <nofrillz> sudo apt-get remove firefox --purge
[00:58] <TomV-415> yeats: I'll give that a try.  thanks.
[00:58] <nofrillz> i think
[00:58] <Kingsy> nofrillz: what does that do?
[00:58] <ny51bern> sitescripter: ive tried looking online a bit. ill keep looking i guess. thanks anyways!
[00:58] <nofrillz> it removes all traces of the package
[00:58] <Kingsy> oh ok
[00:58] <nofrillz> configs etc
[00:58] <andai> for now i just copy pasted the newline character a bunch of times, but that's silly
[00:58] <sitescripter> ny51bern, good luck
[00:58] <Kingsy> and then do apt-get install firefox after?
[00:58] <aeiou> could anyone tell me the package i need to end a mail from the cli?
[00:58] <knixy> anyone know how to get the envelope back on the top right next to the clock?
[00:58] <KM0201> TomV-415: ugh... i'm not sure on that one... never saw a problem like that... have you tried changing themes?
[00:58] <aeiou> *send
[00:58] <hansw> nofrillz, not with all packages, it might still leave .mozilla
[00:58] <sitescripter> see you all later. i'm out of here for now.
[00:58] <nofrillz> sorry
[00:59] <nofrillz> it removes _MOST_ traces of it
[00:59] <vallhalla_mobile> hey all
[00:59] <chrislustic> I really need to increase my fan speed
[00:59] <niko-nojo> Hi room -anyone know how to get the home page working for Oracle Application Express (Apex) ? I'm running it from Ubuntu 10.04. The database works fine just can't the web front end to work. It should be of the form http://host:port/apex/ but I get a 'could not connect error'
[00:59] <Kingsy> nofrillz: if I purge it, and then do apt-get install firefox what version would be installed? 3.5 ?
[00:59] <nofrillz> i dont know
[00:59] <nofrillz> i have installed firefox in a while
[00:59] <Kingsy> i suppose I might aswell just try it
[00:59] <nofrillz> depends where you isntall it from
[01:00] <hansw> rm -rf ~/. as a non root will remove all settings
[01:00] <bastidrazor> Kingsy: apt-cache policy firefox  :will tell you what version is available
[01:00] <yeats> Kingsy: did you add the mozilla-daily repository?
[01:00] <hansw> rm -rf ~/.mozilla, sorry
[01:00] <Kingsy> yeats: nope, not that I know of
[01:00] <chrislustic> in my sound setting i have no bass treble  etc.  how can I acess this?
[01:00] <nofrillz> TomV-415, is that just in your desktop bar
[01:00] <nofrillz> or is it in everything?
[01:00] <Kingsy> yeats: I also checked sources.list to see if it was there, and I couldnt see it
[01:00] <nofrillz> you might have a corrupted theme
[01:01] <nofrillz> gtk
[01:01] <nofrillz> or gtk itself might be corrupted
[01:01] <Kingsy> nofrillz: who me?
[01:01] <chrislustic> sound is horrible compared to when I boot mac, but there playing out the same speakers, I need to control my sound equalizer.
[01:01] <GeekMan> i have a laptop with four speakers and one sub the 4 speakers are wired so that the mid and tweet are one set. so the first 4 are working but my sub doesnt work
[01:01] <nofrillz> not you kingsy
[01:01] <Kingsy> :)
[01:01] <nofrillz> I was trying to tell TomV-415
[01:01] <TomV-415> nofrillz: no, it's every where.. Like a pixel depth issue.  I'm going to try 1. moving ~/.gnome2 then play with themes..
[01:01] <nofrillz> but he is ignoring me
[01:01] <yeats> Kingsy: what's the output of 'apt-cache policy firefox'? (paste at http://paste.ubuntu.com and share the link)
[01:01] <Kingsy> 1 sec
[01:01] <nofrillz> TomV-415, yeah I would do that
[01:01] <nofrillz> or save you themes
[01:02] <simplyfail> is there a diff package i should be getting for samba, apt-get install samba is giving me 404 find errors on the repos
[01:02] <nofrillz> and just reinstall gtk/gnome
[01:02] <TomV-415> how do I reinstall gtk/gnome?  seems like the cleanest path.
[01:02] <yeats> nofrillz: it helps if you address the person you're talking to with each message ;-)
[01:02] <TomV-415> sudo apt-get install ?
[01:02] <nofrillz> agreed, yeats
[01:02] <Kingsy> yeats: http://pastie.org/1488694
[01:02] <iflema> hansw in a terminal       apt-get remove --purge <packagename>       will remove configs
[01:03] <nofrillz> aw i had it mixed up
[01:03] <TomV-415> I actually can't really navigate much with this condition, since icons are illegible..
[01:03] <nofrillz> i did apt-get remove <package> --purge
[01:03] <TomV-415> iflema: cool thanks.
[01:03] <TomV-415> nofrillz: ditto
[01:03] <hansw> iflema, not for mysql-server, to name one of them
[01:03] <nofrillz> TomV-415, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[01:03] <TomV-415> nofrillz: will that hose my current session, and when I reboot without gnome, what will I see?
[01:04] <nofrillz> you will lose some settings
[01:04] <nofrillz> maybe
[01:04] <TomV-415> nofrillz: ah, that sounds like a better path... not
[01:04] <nofrillz> but it should fix your issues
[01:04] <hansw> but the closest to get a new gtk desktop might be to create the account again
[01:04] <Blank> It took a bit of work, but I managed to manually add what I was after following http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9910899&postcount=4 .  Needed to create/edit a few files to add something to Unity which wouldn't be added normally.
[01:04] <TomV-415> nofrillz: Ok, I'll do that now.
[01:04] <Kingsy> yeats: any thoughts?
[01:04] <mrroth> anyone know of a program that or webapp that is good for server maitnace, like a check list or form, to check what has been done or neesd to be done then it create short report
[01:04] <TomV-415> going offline..  thanks you guys a real wealth of knowledge and helpfulness here!  Thanks!!
[01:05] <nofrillz> np
[01:05] <nofrillz> goodluck
[01:05] <TomV-415> :-)
[01:05] <GeekMan> might any one know what my problem lies in
[01:05] <nofrillz> Geekman, I have no clue about sound configuration
[01:05] <HunterBukowski> as for GRUB, I'm reinstalling from a flash drive that successfully installed on another computer
[01:06] <nofrillz> i just install alsa and im on my way
[01:06] <GeekMan> nofrillz its cool maybe some one else knows
[01:06] <HunterBukowski> although I tried this once already...  could it be a bad mobo?  Would a near-dead CMOS battery cause GRUB freeze?
[01:06] <suqa> Someone who have experience of booting via GRUB? I 've tried a cpuple of times the past hour and finds unetbootin but when I choose to "install lubuntu" it startes ubuntu instead.
[01:06] <yeats> Kingsy: have you tried the suggestion of deleting/moving your ~/.mozilla folder, then restarting firefox?
[01:07] <Kingsy> yeats: no, tbh I don't really know what the issue is, I was hoping someone could explain, don't I need to remove the application and re-install it to rollback the version?
[01:07] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  a live disc will boot and then let you install
[01:08] <suqa> hunterbukowski: cd is no option unfortenatly
[01:08] <ny51bern> Sometimes when I restart my computer, my top panel gets messed up and I'm missing some of its components..any ideas?
[01:08] <HunterBukowski> can you use a flash drive?
[01:08] <suqa> No, my BOIS doesn't support it.
[01:08] <suqa> Got to do everything via GRUB.
[01:08] <yeats> Kingsy: I have not seen Firefox be renamed like that unless I added the mozilla daily repo
[01:08] <sacarlson> suqa:  if you have it installed correctly you can change the default boot with startup-manager https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StartUpManager
[01:08] <Kingsy> yeats: i.e should I try the apt-get remove firefox --purge option? and then apt-get install firefox? or will that just re-install namoroka?
[01:09] <chrislustic> ugh
[01:09] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  I'm not familiar with network installs, but that sounds like your only option
[01:09] <chrislustic> I've figured out how to speed up my fan but...
[01:09] <chrislustic> the process is...
[01:09] <yeats> Kingsy: it *should* reinstall firefox
[01:09] <chrislustic> complex.
[01:09] <chrislustic> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=42737

[01:09] <gpc> !enter | chrislustic
[01:09] <Kingsy> yeats: ok let me test that out
[01:09] <yeats> Kingsy: you might try moving your .mozilla folder first though
[01:09] <Chilaquiles> nofrillz: I know you just searched for it without seeing if the links work, but is too old that there are no links that work
[01:09] <Kingsy> yeats: why? just curious?
[01:09] <yeats> Kingsy: that folder contains all your personal settings
[01:10] <Chilaquiles> Hey I need to install x-lite on ubuntu with no luck has anyone installed it succesfully?
[01:10] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  you said your BIOS doesn't support booting from USB..?
[01:10] <Kingsy> ah, ok
[01:10] <yeats> Kingsy: there may be something in there that got borked along the way
[01:10] <chrislustic> ..
[01:10] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  I'm confused
[01:11] <suqa> Hunderbukowski: No, so I have to do it via GRUB. And i succed to boot from my USB that way. But when choosing an option in the menu "install" "test" "memory test" etc it starts ubuntu anywat
[01:11] <suqa> Hunterbukowski: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB
[01:11] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  but you can't install it after it starts?
[01:11] <jags> hey I'm trying to setup my ubuntu machines to print onto my windows shared printer.  I set it all up.  I watch it send a 127k file when I'm printing a test page, on the windows machine that 127k file stops at 64k and the file size keeps increasing.  It was 64k/50MB by the time I purged the queue.  Any Ideas, it won't print from ubuntu?
[01:12] <suqa> hunterbukowski: Exactly! It starts Ubuntu instead of lubuntu. But there is only the ubuntu logo who is loading, the system dont start.
[01:12] <HunterBukowski> jags:  are you using cups?
[01:12] <jags> no, I tried both the cups and the recommended driver.  They both did the same thing
[01:13] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  oh, ok, so it freezes on startup?
[01:13] <suqa> Yeah, ubuntu is not suppose to start, but it starts and freex.
[01:13] <HunterBukowski> jags:  It's been a looong time, but I got cups to work after researching in the forums
[01:14] <jags> HunterBukowski, ok thanks I'll do some searches
[01:14] <Kingsy> yeats: looks like that worked :)
[01:14] <yeats> Kingsy: great!
[01:14] <nofrillz> Can anyone tell me my mouse ID from the output of xinput list? (http://pastebin.com/L9cVXVLL)
[01:14] <Kingsy> yeats: I don't really get why it happened in the first place tho
[01:15] <nofrillz> i see three possible ones, but I don't know which one to choose
[01:15] <s0vile> Cpu breaking when hovering IRC-client. How fix it
[01:15] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  did you check the MD5 on the (l)ubuntu file, or try redownloading it and putting it on your flash drive again?
[01:15] <suqa> will check md5 now.
[01:15] <TomV-415> still having issues with my display.  I think I have gotten a bit closer to the issue.  I think I need an NVidia 3rd party driver that may not be available for 10.10..
[01:16] <TomV-415> When I check for 3rd part drivers, nothing is found...
[01:16] <CooKieMonster> is this sudo apt-get install traceroute a legitimate app ?
[01:16] <xangua> !info traceroute | CooKieMonster
[01:16] <bazhang> CooKieMonster, yes
[01:16] <yeats> Kingsy: firefox can get borked up for various reasons... usually conflicting addons and things like that.  Your profile is stored in ~/.mozilla/firefox and is named [randomstring].default
[01:17] <Jamaican_Linux_F> my wicd report "bad password" everytime i try to connect to my wireless
[01:17] <Jamaican_Linux_F> Can any one help!???... please
[01:17] <suqa> Seem to be correct
[01:17] <suqa> But now it's a "_" only, no ubuntu logo.
[01:17] <TomV-415> now that I have an idea of my issue (nvidia driver, I'll do a bit of googling..)
[01:18] <yeats> Kingsy: if you move that folder out of the way, it sometimes solves the problems (though you lose your bookmarks/settings)
[01:18] <suqa> Is lubuntu using ubuntus logo?
[01:18] <KM0201> Jamaican_Linux_F: is it seeing other networks(than the one you've entered)
[01:18] <sacarlson> suqa: lubuntu is ubuntu just a different set of packages
[01:18] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  might still be worth reinstalling on the flash drive, and/or using a different USB port if possible, also check your BIOS
[01:19] <suqa> sacarlson: I know
[01:19] <induz> lately my Lucid hangup. why
[01:19] <suqa> HunterBukowski: I'll try that
[01:19] <bazhang> induz, no idea without more details
[01:19] <sacarlson> suqa: there for it will look the same
[01:19] <induz> when i open 2-3 windows, it hangs up
[01:19] <Kingsy> yeats: ah right i SEE
[01:19] <suqa> But i can see all files who are suppose to be in the USB-stick via GRUB.
[01:19] <Kingsy> see*
[01:19] <bazhang> induz, how much ram
[01:19] <induz> how do i know how much RAM?
[01:20] <induz> I think its 1 GB
[01:20] <bazhang> induz, type free in a terminal
[01:20] <suqa> sacarlson: So the ubuntu-logo is actually lubuntu trying to boot (loading files)?
[01:20] <sacarlson> suqa: that sounds probable
[01:20] <suqa> Seems quite reasonly because it is usb 1.1
[01:20] <suqa> extra slow
[01:20] <induz> bazhang, here;
[01:20] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  you did check the system requirements, right?  I ask since you said your BIOS doesn't support flash-boot = older

[01:21] <CooKieMonster> will traceroute show which nameserver i'm now using ?
[01:21] <induz> bazhang, http://paste.ubuntu.com/557026/
[01:21] <induz> sorry about that
[01:22] <CooKieMonster> or how to check my default nameserver ?
[01:22] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  160 what?  RAM, MHz?  That's a pretty low number for anything
[01:22] <induz> It was all ok running fine but lately since 2-3 days it hangs up
[01:22] <suqa>  As support for i586 chipsets has been dropped from the kernel for the 10.10 series (These include VIA C3, AMD K6, National Semiconductor and AMD Geode)
[01:22] <suqa> hunterbukowski: RAM.

[01:22] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  you might try xubuntu, which is good, just less flashy
[01:23] <justin___> cookie, cat /etc/resolv.conf
[01:23] <suqa> hunterbukowski: Ive got VIA and trying to install 10.10... Cold that be the problem?
[01:23] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  yes
[01:23] <induz> is some program using all my memory?
[01:23] <Jamaican_Linux_F> Please can someone tell me how to make my wicd connect w/o saying bad password
[01:23] <bazhang> induz, open a terminal and type top ; dont paste here
[01:23] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  try DSL, xubuntu, knoppix, or headless and then install xfce desktop
[01:23] <suqa> Hunterbukowski: I've tried xubuntu before, didn't run smooth. Only have 190 RAM.
[01:24] <suqa> WIll give xubuntu a try now then.
[01:24] <justin___> induz, 75% of your mem is free
[01:24] <bazhang> suqa, with that little ram lubuntu would be a better bet
[01:25] <suqa> But I'll have to download 10.04 because of " As support for i586 chipsets has been dropped from the kernel for the 10.10 series (These include VIA C3, AMD K6, National Semiconductor and AMD Geode)" and Iäve got a VIA chipset?
[01:25] <suqa> bazhang: Ok, I'll dw xubuntu. But should I dw 10.10 or 10.04?
[01:25] <induz> bazhang, http://paste.ubuntu.com/557027/
[01:26] <bazhang> suqa, you mean lubuntu ?
[01:26] <CooKieMonster> can traceroute show which nameserver ?
[01:26] <suqa> bazhang: yes.
[01:26] <induz> justin___, why it hangs then
[01:26] <yeats> CooKieMonster: no
[01:26] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  as bazhang said, lubuntu is another option, but yes, try xubuntu with xfce or something more compact like DSL
[01:26] <bazhang> suqa, xubuntu wont be much different from Ubuntu as far as ram usage
[01:26] <suqa> Yes, but 10.10 or 10.04?
[01:26] <induz> Its happening when i use my USB drive
[01:26] <induz> right now I am not using it
[01:27] <bazhang> HunterBukowski, please lets stick to recommending Ubuntu products here
[01:27] <justin___> induz, not sure but ram usage is not your problem
[01:27] <bazhang> suqa, 10.10
[01:27] <induz> is it caz of VirtualBox, but i am not usiing Vbox
[01:27] <bazhang> induz, what video card, which driver
[01:27] <suqa> bazhang: But it says it dont suport VIA and I've got a VIA chipset.
[01:28] <induz> I am not using video card bazhang
[01:28] <sacarlson> suqa: I would get the 10.04
[01:28] <bazhang> induz, sure you are
[01:28] <justin___> cookiemonster,$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
[01:28] <induz> bazhang, I dont know if this comp has a video card
[01:28] <suqa> sacarlson: Ok, I'll give 10.04 a try
[01:28] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  or, you could try an older version of ubuntu-- 7, 8, 9
[01:28] <no4> how do u flush dns in terminal
[01:28] <bazhang> induz, you're using X, correct?
[01:28] <induz> I am  just using a LCD Dell monitor
[01:29] <induz> what is X bazhang
[01:29] <bazhang> HunterBukowski, almost all of those are unsupported
[01:29] <HunterBukowski> no4:  something "renew" I think
[01:29] <suqa> hunterbukowski: But how is it with the hardware support then? VIA isn't running thar smooth under linux...
[01:29] <induz> bazhang,  i am using Lucid
[01:29] <ny51bern> how do people have such cool looking panels in ubuntu?
[01:29] <bazhang> induz, you have a graphical desktop, correct?
[01:29] <yeats> induz: do 'lspci | grep VGA' to find out your video card
[01:30] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  I'm not sure, but that is a potential problem...  you may have to try several different distros/versions to see what your computer can handle
[01:30] <induz> yeats, lspci | grep VGA
[01:30] <induz> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82915G/GV/910GL Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 04)
[01:30] <suqa> Im up to xubuntu right now
[01:30] <yeats> bazhang: ^^
[01:30] <suqa> Ubuntu 10.10 did support all my hardware from scratch.
[01:31] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  and xubuntu isn't smooth?  as in, visual anomalies or really slow?
[01:31] <elitedev> no4: not best solution but you can always restart networking. that worked for me.
[01:31] <bazhang> suqa, its installed now?
[01:31] <induz> here http://paste.ubuntu.com/557028/
[01:31] <xangua> suqa: what's the problem then¿
[01:31] <no4> ok
[01:31] <suqa> bazhang: ubuntu 10.10 is installed
[01:31] <bazhang> induz, how many plugins do you have for firefox
[01:31] <suqa> xanqua: Runnig to slow. 190 RAM.
[01:32] <Zolty_> Hey everyone, I am having a problem with full screen videos in ubuntu 10.10 on chrome. Specifically this: http://i.imgur.com/4K54b.jpg I tried google but I can't phrase it right to get an answer, anyone know how I can phrase it or have a solution?
[01:32] <bazhang> suqa, try installing lubuntu-deskop and login window choose it and try it
[01:32] <induz> bazhang, i am new to Lucid so i dont know
[01:32] <sacarlson> suqa: with that little ram might want to try another distro
[01:32] <suqa> login windows?
[01:32] <jongbergs> hi, are there any updates for AUFS support in 10.04?
[01:32] <bazhang> induz, in the firefox address bar type   about:plugins
[01:32] <suqa> sacarlson: Then xubuntu?
[01:33] <xangua> suqa:  Lubuntu, not Xubuntu
[01:33] <suqa> okej
[01:33] <bazhang> suqa, where you type your username and password at startup, choose lubuntu
[01:33] <suqa> but it dont work to boot it
[01:33] <wcjj> base memory for lubuntu is about 733mb
[01:33] <sacarlson> suqa: no I think lubuntu is as small as ubuntu supports but there are others that can run with less
[01:34] <bazhang> sacarlson, there is minimal 20mb that he could build upon
[01:34] <aeon-ltd> wcjj: 733mb? as a min req?, BULL
[01:34] <suqa> Would like to use lubuntu, but cant boot from USB
[01:34] <HunterBukowski> suqa:  D*** Small Linux is about as small as distros get...  maybe try it
[01:34] <suqa> Get the lubuntu menu but it startes ubutu anyway
[01:34] <bazhang> HunterBukowski, please stick to ubuntu solutions here
[01:34] <wcjj> aeon-ltd, I didn't say req but if you do a clean install and check free -m that is what you get
[01:34] <suqa> okej
[01:34] <suqa> Ill give it at try
[01:34] <bazhang> suqa, lubuntu-desktop can be installed from your current ubuntu install
[01:35] <sacarlson> bazhang: suqa: yes I guess you could build a custom ubuntu thing but not sure how much that will help with just 190 meg

[01:35] <bazhang> induz, are you using a lot of flash tabs in firefox?
[01:35] <aeon-ltd> wcjj: unlikely... something must be wrong if thats the case, ubuntu(gnome) is reccommended as 512mb (at boot its around 300-400)
[01:35] <Firefishe>  When I, in kde/kubuntu 4.5.3, and use the Login Theme Installer (located in the System Settings >> Login Screen >> Theme Tab), I get a weird thing:  When I click on the highlighted (link) title name of the theme, it tries to open many konqueror windows at once....and keeps going and going and going....until I have to kill the x server to stop it.
[01:36] <induz> bazhang, not really
[01:36] <aeon-ltd> wcjj: free-m, shows YOUR ram btw
[01:36] <bazhang> induz, how many
[01:36] <induz> bazhang, right now none
[01:36] <bazhang> Firefishe, I'd ask in #kubuntu
[01:36] <wcjj> aeon-ltd, I thought that is what we were discussing, I must have missed something?

[01:36] <shatly> how do i change 10.10 to the old style look?
[01:37] <svchost1> whenever i fullscreen flash it crashes, regardless of browser
[01:37] <Firefishe> baz...I have, and it's not altogether active in there much ;).  I usually just default here.
[01:37] <bazhang> shatly, old style as of when
[01:37] <shatly> like 9.04~
[01:37] <induz> bazhang, i dont use flsh video much
[01:37] <xangua> svchost1: because flash sucks in linux
[01:37] <aeon-ltd> wcjj: sorry i apologize, i must've been out of context
[01:37] <Omen_20> When will flash stop sucking up so much memory over time? I hate having to reboot Chrome just because of flash.
[01:37] <suqa> Could u link a dw link do damn small linux?
[01:37] <bazhang> Firefishe, okay, just a suggestion
[01:37] <xangua> shatly: is not supported
[01:37] <nyghtfyre> ok simple question i hope with simple answer is it as easy as installing vent on wine to make it work?
[01:38] <bazhang> shatly, you want the gdm and wallpapers from 9.04 ?
[01:38] <shatly> when i upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10 it had the old style look, now with a fresh install of 10.10 it has this crappy sidebar thing~

[01:46] <gmg> Hi everyone...is their a program I can use to change the startup splash screen?
[01:46] <PsPhaKeR_> There is an anoying bug in the terminal
[01:47] <nofrillz> gmg, startup manager
[01:47] <induz> bazhang, now its alright
[01:47] <PsPhaKeR_> whenever there is a file with a space in it
[01:47] <induz> bazhang, it maybe  caz of WINE programs too
[01:47] <Jamaican_Linux_F> i installed lxde, xfce and kde in my ubuntu but now some things look different i dnt kno how to change it back... for example... my boot up is that of lubuntu and i dont know how to change it back
[01:47] <elik> Anybody here ever heard of intel_reg_dumper?
[01:47] <PsPhaKeR_> if you try and "cd" into in with the terminal
[01:47] <PsPhaKeR_> it won't
[01:47] <Jamaican_Linux_F> can some one help???
[01:47] <PsPhaKeR_> because the file has a space
[01:48] <yki> can somebody explain how to make the public_html folder of apache2 remotely visible, wich ip do i have to use after forwarding port to connect remote?
[01:48] <gmg> no..the startup ubuntu splash logo screen...I wish to change it
[01:48] <HunterBukowski> Jamaican:  you're no longer getting a screen which asks you which desktop to boot to?
[01:48] <Ademan> is it valid to perform the actual creation of a network interface in the interfaces pre-up ? (I want to create a tap interface for myself, so I want to add a line "pre-up tunctl -u dan -t tap_dan" to the tap_dan interface configuration, I'm not sure the -t option is correct, but that's the spirit of what I want to do)
[01:48] <justin___> psphaker, try tab completion

[01:52] <KM0201> hmm marcos_ did you see that
[01:52] <TomV-415> After all that when I rebooted, everything looked promising as my boot screen was very nice, but it totally stops on the reboot screen
[01:52] <TomV-415> I had to boot in recovery mode.
[01:53] <TomV-415> And select low graphics mode.
[01:53] <TomV-415> How do I troubleshoot the boot issue?
[01:53] <hilarie> How do I configure proxy settings in pidgen?
[01:53] <KM0201> TomV-415: ran into this issue yesterday w/ someone else, and couldn't figure it out.. .nvidia card do you have?
[01:53] <Sengoku> Anyone know where I can change how my alt-tab screen preference
[01:53] <bazhang> hilarie, try #pidgin
[01:54] <josephseraos> does someone use ubuntu + modem md300 Sony Ericsson + Internet 3G ?
[01:54] <hilarie> I was thinking about it, and then I saw KM0201 was online
[01:54] <CamonZ> Hi, how do I remove/add something from starting at boot time
[01:54] <lucio_> server irc.openjoke.org
[01:54] <pksadiq> !Nvidia | TomV-415
[01:54] <bazhang> CamonZ, startup applications
[01:55] <KM0201> hilarie: proxy settings in pidgin?.. probably tools/preferences/proxy :)  but i don't use a proxy
[01:55] <pksadiq> josephseraos: I'm using nokia now
[01:55] <bazhang> CamonZ, system preferences startup applications
[01:55] <mkf00> anyone here a hero of regular expressions?
[01:55] <CamonZ> bazhang: it's a server, no UI
[01:55] <Blue1> mkf00: still learning those
[01:55] <CamonZ> I mean the scripts in /etc/init.d/
[01:55] <bazhang> mkf00, as in bash?
[01:55] <TomV-415> KM0201: how do I determine the card type?  this is a Dell Latitude.
[01:55] <hilarie> Bleh, I was trying to only use a proxy for chromium, but aparently it's a global thing
[01:55] <mkf00> ye, bash
[01:55] <bazhang> mkf00, the people in #bash are
[01:55] <josephseraos> pksadiq, I'm using Mini Modem MD300 Sony Ericsson to woork 3G...
[01:55] <KM0201> TomV-415: lspci | grep Video  in a terminal should tell you the basics
[01:56] <Blue1> KM0201: card type for?
[01:56] <TomV-415> pksadiq: thanks checking ubutu link..
[01:56] <TomV-415> KM0201: will do
[01:56] <pksadiq> josephseraos: usb modem?
[01:56] <josephseraos> ubuntu connects automatically with gnome
[01:56] <KM0201> Blue1: he tried to install the nvidia driver, now can't bring the GUI up... he's in recovery mode now
[01:56] <josephseraos> pksadiq, yes
[01:56] <Blue1> KM0201: ah okay let you guys work those sometimes can be buggers.
[01:57] <KM0201> Blue1: i probably won't be much help... someone else ran into this yesterday.. didnt have much luck
[01:57] <hilarie> Is there a way to set up proxy settings on a per program basis? firefox and pidgen go to a global proxy setting
[01:57] <pksadiq> josephseraos: I'm using through phone, anyway in terminal try ls /dev/ttyA*  and see whether any results popup
[01:57] <TomV-415> KM0201:  Driver is VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV28 [GeForce4 Ti 4200 Go AGP 8x] (rev a1)
[01:57] <Blue1> KM0201: you did  try this?  grep -i glx /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[01:57] <josephseraos> pksadiq, and when I click in connections, in top bar, and Disconnect, the modem's the light keeps blinking
[01:58] <elik> Anybody here ever heard of intel_reg_dumper?
[01:58] <KM0201> hilarie: lookin gat the proxy section for pidgin... it looks like you can set it up w/o making it global
[01:58] <KM0201> TomV-415: you said you're in the safe mode GUI now, right?
[01:58] <TomV-415> KM0201: right
[01:58] <CooKieMonster> anyone here know any non US online free web proxy
[01:58] <josephseraos> pksadiq, Yes, the results are: ...M0 and ...M1
[01:58] <KM0201> TomV-415: do you have anything in system/admin/additional drivers?
[01:59] <GuilhermeCunha> How to configure a site with php5 and another one with php4 in the same apache2?
[01:59] <bazhang> !ot | CooKieMonster
[01:59] <TomV-415> KM0201: looks like my Nvidia driver is currently activated and in use.
[01:59] <hilarie> @km0201 even when I don't tell it to go global, it does anyways' same from chromium, it prompts to make global, when you don't, it does anyways
[01:59] <gmg> Is their a program to change the startup splash screen? I installed Splash from the software centre but it doesn't work
[01:59] <TomV-415> KM0201: I'm wondering if there is a log or something I can see regarding the failed normal boot (so I don't have to boot into recovery mode.)
[01:59] <KM0201> hilarie: hmm, i don't use a proxie so i can't really explain that, you'd probably need to take that up in #pidgin
[02:00] <KM0201> TomV-415: i would uninstall the nvidia-driver completely and see if that gets you back to a "regular" GUI
[02:00] <jongberg1> hi, are there any updates for AUFS support in 10.04?
[02:00] <pksadiq> josephseraos: ok, now you need to find the setting for your connection like accesspoint name, phone number(usually *99#) and then add such details to the file /etc/wvdial.conf
[02:00] <josephseraos> pksadiq, Understand what I mean?
[02:01] <CamonZ> bazhang: update-rc.d -f old_service remove and update-cd.d new_service defaults
[02:01] <josephseraos> pksadiq, right... I'm connected
[02:01] <pksadiq> josephseraos: ?
[02:01] <razz1> how to fix the full screen flash video from yuotube, left most screen issue, would like it to open on the right most screen. Any workarounds
[02:01] <josephseraos> pksadiq, I'm connected, ok?
[02:01] <pksadiq> josephseraos: ok, and so now?
[02:01] <josephseraos> pksadiq, I'm not using wvdial. I'm using gnome network default
[02:02] <galamar> im trying to join #ipodlinux. any ideas why that is not working
[02:02] <CamonZ> s/cd.d/rc.d
[02:02] <hilarie> It seems to be a global issue the more I look at it, the only thing that isn't effected by it is Xchat, and its possible it just shoots through my proxy no problem, the real issue here is it prompts for my password when its trying to go global I.E. an administrative function, but regardless of authorization it does anyways
[02:02] <pksadiq> josephseraos: I'm using actually pppd, because wvdial and gnome network manager kills my connection when a phone comes ;)
[02:02] <xangua> !register > galamar
[02:02] <bazhang> galamar, register
[02:03] <josephseraos> pksadiq, when I plug the modem, the Ubuntu turn it on automatically, ok? So, I want to know how turn off it safely
[02:03] <bazhang> galamar, join #freenode for help with that
[02:03] <josephseraos> pksadiq, understnd?
[02:03] <pksadiq> josephseraos: k, do you mean, it connects automatically?
[02:05] <bazhang> check linuxprinting.org database tiox
[02:05] <phawk> does anyone know if you can have a portable version of ubuntu running off a flash drive on mac os x
[02:05] <tiox> Thanks a bunch.
[02:05] <josephseraos> pksadiq, I want to kill connection safely
[02:05] <nofrillz> Can someone tell me which ID my wireless mouse is (xinput list output: http://pastebin.com/L9cVXVLL)
[02:05] <bazhang> phawk, probably through a vm
[02:06] <clemenstimpler> @phawk vm= virtual machine
[02:06] <bazhang> phawk, also try in #vbox
[02:06] <clemenstimpler> phawk: ppc or intel?
[02:06] <josephseraos> Yes. it does
[02:06] <josephseraos> pksadiq, Yes. it does
[02:06] <pksadiq> josephseraos: in terminal type ifconfig, does it show any names other than lo, then might be the command sudo poff will kill your connection
[02:07] <mayfield> hi
[02:07] <phawk> intel core 2 duo
[02:07] <josephseraos> yes
[02:07] <josephseraos> usb0
[02:08] <gamax92> Headache
[02:08] <pksadiq> josephseraos: so try sudo poff  or simply poff
[02:08] <clemenstimpler> @phawk: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1948
[02:08] <phawk> see i dont really want to install rEFIt.. so a vmachine may do the trick
[02:08] <galamar> ok i registered but i am still not able to join #ipodlinux
[02:08] <pksadiq> josephseraos: it will disconnect you from the internet
[02:08] <bazhang> galamar, you're not identified
[02:09] <bazhang> galamar, this is really an issue for #freenode ,as I said before
[02:09] <galamar> how do i identify?
[02:09] <pksadiq> galamar: me too can't join the same,(I'm banned) !
[02:10] <KM0201> !register | galamar
[02:10] <nofrillz> i joined just fine
[02:10] <galamar> bazhang: sorry i didnt see your msg about freenode i was registering
[02:10] <tiox> Just answer his question. It's IRC, he's in IRC therefore we can give IRC information.
[02:10] <tiox> Ah.
[02:10] <breadcrumb> pksadiq, probably because you're logged in as root user. a lot of channels ban *!*root@*
[02:10] <bazhang> galamar, pksadiq lets discuss in #freenode
[02:10] <pksadiq> breadcrumb: yeah, that's right
[02:11] <Tm0> Hi, how do i configure bind?
[02:11] <tiox> And bazhang, I can't find anything for my specific printer on OpenPrinting.
[02:11] <KM0201> pksadiq: why on earth would you run IRC as root anyway? thats as dumb as looking at porn on Win 7 w/o virus protection
[02:11] <josephseraos> pksadiq, poff returns -> No pppd is running.  None stopped. <-

[02:13] <pksadiq> josephseraos: in terminal try ps -e | grep ppp
[02:13] <KM0201> pksadiq: ic

[02:13] <sandhu> pl tell me about the  benefits of wine software
[02:13] <nofrillz> sandhu
[02:14] <nofrillz> !wine
[02:14] <bazhang> !wine | sandhu have a read
[02:14] <tiox> KM0201: Submissted as bash quote, keep an eye on http://bash.org/?936652
[02:14] <josephseraos> pksadiq, it returns 1
[02:14] <mayfield> bot based on autumn framework?
[02:14] <clemenstimpler> @ nofrillz: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Edubuntu/Documentation/Edubuntu-menueditor
[02:15] <hilarie> @km0201 That doesn't sound link a bug to you?
[02:15] <josephseraos> pksadiq, it returns 1 (nothing returned)
[02:15] <nofrillz> wat
[02:15] <bazhang> mayfield, supybot
[02:15] <pksadiq> josephseraos: try sudo killall pppd and see whether any connection is lost
[02:15] <nofrillz> oh
[02:15] <nofrillz> thats nifty
[02:15] <mayfield> bazhang: very cool! :)
[02:15] <clemenstimpler> @ nofrillz
[02:15] <clemenstimpler> edubuntu is a special edition of ubuntu
[02:15] <clemenstimpler> you may have to install the menu editor separately
[02:15] <KM0201> hilarie: i'm sorry i wasn't following... what was wrong?
[02:15] <clemenstimpler> this was what i could come up with in a hurry
[02:15] <ny51bern> how do u make your ubuntu setup looks awesome?
[02:16] <bazhang> ny51bern, with themes
[02:16] <nofrillz> Can someone tell me which ID my wireless mouse is (xinput list output: http://pastebin.com/L9cVXVLL)
[02:16] <ny51bern> bazhang: like?
[02:16] <bazhang> !themes > ny51bern
[02:16] <bazhang> ny51bern, also consider a dock
[02:16] <josephseraos> pksadiq, ok... using network manager from gnome, clicking in disconnect, the connection  is killed. So, the usb modem keep blinking
[02:17] <bazhang> cairo-dock , awn, docky etc
[02:17] <nofrillz> ok is it just me
[02:17] <nofrillz> or does evolution need a password to download mail?
[02:17] <bastidrazor> ny51bern: cairo-dock has great eye candy
[02:17] <nofrillz> because theres no input box to stick it in
[02:17] <nofrillz> just my username
[02:17] <bazhang> nofrillz, it does need one
[02:17] <ny51bern> bazhang: themes = wallpapers? I don;t want a wallpaper. I'm looking to make my top panel look cool
[02:17] <josephseraos> pksadiq, and, when I try connect again, it doesn't work. So, I have to remove and plug again, to reconnect. Understand?
[02:17] <nofrillz> ny51bern, gnomelook.org
[02:17] <pksadiq> josephseraos: if you can see that modem in ls /dev/ then you might use sudo eject <your device> which is not usually used
[02:17] <nofrillz> where do i stick my password then?
[02:18] <ny51bern> Whenever I see a screenshot of someones desktop they look so cool
[02:18] <bazhang> ny51bern, no themes are much more than wallpaper; gnome-look.org for examples
[02:18] <ny51bern> which do you guys have?
[02:18] <bazhang> ny51bern, getting offtopic here
[02:18] <hilarie> @km0201 The proxy settings for pidgen and chromium use a gnome type proxy settings to apply things globally, and they apply regardless of administrative authorization, IE it asks for P/W and does it whether you add it or not
[02:18] <clemenstimpler> @ nofrillz: If you right click on your "applications" menu, you can edit it
[02:18] <nofrillz> yeah I got it
[02:18] <nofrillz> thanks
[02:19] <KM0201> hilarie: i would think thats a bug... did you ask in #pidgin?
[02:19] <josephseraos> pksadiq, how can I know what is my device?
[02:19] <sandhu> pl tell me about good video games on linux
[02:19] <bazhang> !games > sandhu
[02:19] <josephseraos> lsusb returns -> Bus 002 Device 010: ID 0fce:d0cf Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB <-
[02:20] <etc_> ohgod
[02:20] <pksadiq> josephseraos: that command is usually used only with CD /DVD drives, not usually used
[02:20] <xangua> sandhu: check playdeb.net ;)
[02:20] <Varc> Hey guys, Droopy have any problem or is not a good program?
[02:20] <clemenstimpler> not to forget AisleRiot solitaire: very relaxing
[02:21] <pksadiq> josephseraos: if once disconnected I think you can reconnect within 1 minute, me too, in my phone if I desconnect the connection, the connection persists in my phone for a while, but poff works well for me
[02:22] <mister_m> why can I connect to my wireless network through the gnome network manager, but not wicd or wicd-curses??
[02:23] <josephseraos> pksadiq, I have a Nokia too, and when I connect with my cellphone, it work very well. I think poff works for you because you are using wvdial, that uses pppd
[02:23] <KM0201> mister_m: same reason some people can connect through wicd, but not gnome-network-manager... i admit, i have no idea
[02:23] <pksadiq> josephseraos: I connects using pon itself, might be that is the reason
[02:23] <mister_m> KM0201, that is upsetting - because I want to get on my wireless from the awesome wm
[02:24] <josephseraos> pksadiq, Yes. Maybe
[02:24] <Amacidia> Hey everyone. Weird issue here. I have a server that I can SSH into when the PCI video card is installed, but when I remove the card, and boot the computer, I can't SSH into the server. Any ideas why?
[02:24] <josephseraos> pksadiq, Hey man, I gotta go now. Here is 11:25 pm
[02:24] <pksadiq> josephseraos: you might try ifconfig down usb0
[02:24] <josephseraos> I have to wake up at 6 am
[02:25] <aRiEz> how to change DNS address in wvdial
[02:25] <pksadiq> josephseraos: yeah ok, sorry as no destinations reached
[02:25] <dismo> Amacidia: sure it boots correctly ones the card is removed?
[02:25] <josephseraos> pksadiq, I tried ifconfig usb0 down, and didn't work
[02:25] <dismo> Amacidia: *once
[02:25] <mister_m> KM0201, is there an alternative version of the gnome network manager that I would be able to use that isn't called wicd?
[02:25] <josephseraos> pksadiq, no problem. You helped me a lot
[02:26] <Amacidia> dismo: hey, not sure, I can ping the box, thats about it.
[02:26] <josephseraos> pksadiq, have a nice night. See you!
[02:26] <KM0201> mister_m: not that i am aware of.. i don't understand the problem, you connect fine through the gnome-network manager, right?
[02:26] <mister_m> KM0201, not an alternative version, but an alternative piece of software
[02:26] <mister_m> KM0201, yes
[02:26] <pksadiq> josephseraos: k
[02:26] <mister_m> KM0201, but wicd fails no matter what
[02:26] <KM0201> mister_m: so...? whats the problem, just use gnome-network-manager?
[02:26] <clemenstimpler> @ mister_m: are both of them installed simultaneously?
[02:26] <mister_m> KM0201, I can't use the gnome one from the awesome wm
[02:27] <josephseraos> pksadiq, Tomorrow I'll here again
[02:27] <KM0201> oh..hmm
[02:27] <josephseraos> pksadiq, gool luck!
[02:27] <josephseraos> good*
[02:27] <danst_> why don't you use cli utils
[02:27] <dismo> Amacidia: maybe your network card is set in bios for network booting. this way it would be "pingable"
[02:27] <KM0201> yaa
[02:27] <bazhang> mister_m, then connect manually
[02:27] <pksadiq> josephseraos: I have college tomorrow, then so next 26th
[02:28] <mister_m> bazhang, hwo
[02:28] <Amacidia> dismo: Correct it is. So I'm not sure why the system is not booting up correctly if I remove the card. Possibly udev ?
[02:28] <bazhang> mister_m, read the wifi links yet?
[02:29] <dismo> Amacidia: i would suspect more of a fundamental issue. like it doesn't get to booting your linux bc. of (bios, grub, etc.)
[02:29] <josephseraos> I'm on vacation by college. I'm doing Computing Engineering. And you?
[02:29] <josephseraos> pksadiq, I'm on vacation by college. I'm doing Computing Engineering. And you?
[02:29] <dismo> Amacidia: is there any harddisk activity when booting?
[02:29] <bazhang> !ot | josephseraos
[02:31] <Amacidia> dismo: lots, and never ending haha
[02:31] <dismo> Amacidia: so you are sure it gets to booting the linux?
[02:32] <mahesh> yes
[02:32] <dismo> Amacidia: if so. the logs will provide answers for sure.
[02:32] <MACscr> i like to play games every so often and i really hate the fact that i have to close all my work (i have like 30 windows open right now) and reboot into windows. Then when im done, i have to open it all back up. Any way for it to dump the session to the drive so i can open it later?
[02:33] <josephseraos> bazhang, Sorry, but, there's no other topic here
[02:33] <dismo> MACscr: does hibernate not work?`
[02:33] <dismo> MACscr: you have to have a big enough swap partition.
[02:34] <dismo> MACscr: swap >= ram
[02:34] <MACscr> dismo: i wouldnt think that would work for my purpose. Would it? I have 8gb of ram, so a 16gb swap seemed a bit crazy
[02:34] <MACscr> i only have 1gb of swap
[02:35] <MACscr> er, 1.5gb actually
[02:35] <dismo> MACscr: but then you can't hibernate imho
[02:35] <clemenstimpler> mister_m, there are people running awesome with gnome: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.awesome/6603
[02:35] <MACscr> dismo: but i dont think hibernate will even work for my purpose
[02:35] <MACscr> am i wrong?
[02:36] <novaspirit> hi all
[02:36] <pksadiq> josephseraos: gone? sorry I was way
[02:36] <novaspirit> looking for help / guidance
[02:36] <pksadiq> ^wa^awa
[02:36] <Guest16154> I have a clean install of Ubuntu 10.10 Server.  It keeps hanging at the flashing cursor on reboot indefinitely.  However, If I reboot, and hold down "shift" I see the "Grub Loading.." message.  and then the system boots fine.
[02:37] <dismo> MACscr: i think hibernate will do exactly what you want.
[02:37] <GuilhermeCunha> How to configure a site with php5 and another one with php4 in the same apache2?
[02:37] <novaspirit> i'm not sure if i got the right term but what i'm trying to accomplish is port fowarding
[02:37] <jags> has anyone tried using a small flash drive in addition to swap, giving it priority?  I had it working for a few days, then the stick stop being recognized as swap, did I kill it that quickly?
[02:38] <novaspirit> i have a (2003 server) reverse putty to my ssh server (10.x.x.1) and my windows pc (192.x.x.1)
[02:38] <MACscr> dismo: i am at least using two different hard drives for the two os's, so that should help a bit. I have no problem expanding my swap if its going to work the way i need it to. guess i just need to find more details on it.
[02:38] <dr3van> Hello  I have a question.  I am new to Linux all together , but I have windows 7 installed on one of my hard drives and decided I wanted to install Ubuntu on a second hard drive.  How I thought it would work is that ubuntu would install grub when i installed it and when I would restart the computer it would ask what os to boot.  Now that I have installed Ubuntu it does not ask and even if i choose the hard drive windows is i
[02:38] <dr3van> nstalled on it says the boot record is invalid?
[02:38] <clemenstimpler> @ Guest16154: http://gggeek.altervista.org/2007/07/21/running-multiple-php-versions-on-a-single-apache-install/ (not tested)
[02:39] <dismo> MACscr: ok. be save :-)
[02:39] <novaspirit> i have a data base running on my 2003 server on port 2000 and i have it ssh to my 10.x.x.1 and i need my windows mahine to connect to that data base
[02:39] <MACscr> so for hibernation, do i really have to have double the swap?
[02:39] <MACscr> or is that more just a recommendation
[02:40] <MACscr> er, double my ram
[02:40] <dismo> MACscr: hmm? what?
[02:40] <Sdw195> um I/O error could not boot from cd?
[02:41] <dismo> MACscr: swap needs to be equal or greater than ram. that is all
[02:41] <pksadiq> dr3van: while installing did the ubuntu installer said about windows 7?
[02:42] <Guest16154> I have a clean install of Ubuntu 10.10 Server.  It keeps hanging at the flashing cursor on reboot indefinitely.  However, If I reboot, and hold down "shift" I see the "Grub Loading.." message.  and then the system boots fine. What if anything to I need to change in my grub.cfg file to resovle this?
[02:42] <novaspirit> i guess what i'm trying to do is my data base to find port 2000 off my 10.x.x.1 and foward it to my 2003 server
[02:42] <mister_m> clemenstimpler, I switched to awesome because I didn't want to use gnome though

[02:44] <MagicJ> is there a version of the game "collapse" that will run under ubuntu = can't believe that there isn't but can't find it
[02:44] <Sdw195> hello??
[02:44] <novaspirit> i can read that data base from 10.x.x.1 so i know the reverse ssh port forwarding is working but when i try with my windows machine it wont detect it
[02:45] <clemenstimpler> @ mister_m: you are not alone - http://ircanswers.com/ubuntu/460596/wireless-address-address-connection-connection#
[02:45] <clemenstimpler> could that be a bug? did you have a look at launchpad?
[02:45] <Slix`> How can I remove Kubuntu and install Ubuntu?
[02:46] <bazhang> !puregnome > Slix`
[02:46] <xangua> Slix`: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[02:46] <bazhang> mister_m, what have you done to connect manually
[02:46] <Guest16154> any assistance with my GRUB hanging issue is greatly appreciated as I need to get this box back up withoua keyboard and monitor attached to it
[02:46] <Slix`> I just want to reinstall everything from scratch though.. I guess formatting all non-Windows partitions will work.
[02:47] <bazhang> Slix`, no need for that
[02:47] <Guest16154> whenever I reboot via a remote ssh session the box hangs after GRUB
[02:48] <tyler_d> Guest16154: waht do the logs say?
[02:48] <Guest16154> that's the thing.....I don't see any errors
[02:48] <dr3van> pksadiq: my bad but i dont recall it saying anything about windows 7 when i installed ubuntu
[02:48] <tyler_d> Guest16154: have you as well tried init 6 vs shutdown -r ?
[02:48] <Slix`> bazhang: It'll make me feel better. :< I've been dealing with an odd issue which causes Ubuntu to fail to boot (infinite blinking underscore or freeze at the loading screen) for a really long time. I want to just reinstall everything from scratch, confirm the problem still exists, and then seek out support to fix the issue.
[02:48] <Guest16154> if I hold down "shift" when booting, I see the "Grub loading..." screen and the system boots find
[02:49] <Guest16154> *fine
[02:49] <bazhang> Slix`, okay then
[02:49] <razz1> any one using a bluetooth keyboard  and mouse, planning on getting one. Do they work during login?
[02:49] <Guest16154> it also happens when simply powering the system on
[02:49] <novaspirit> razzl: it does work durning boot on newer systems
[02:49] <pksadiq> dr3van: are the files of windows 7 present in your hard disk now?
[02:50] <tyler_d> Guest16154: possibly try referencing teh hd staticly
[02:50] <bazhang> Slix`, in future consider a separate /home partition
[02:50] <sudoer> can someone show me usb boot disk instructions for linux on the command line?
[02:50] <Guest16154> tyler_d: how would I go about doing that?
[02:50] <novaspirit> razzl: i use the demovo bluetooth keyboard and mouse and works find with boot and all
[02:50] <sudoer> the ubuntu instricutions are for a a gui, but i am doing this from the command line, i dont have a gui
[02:50] <bazhang> sudoer, command line? why not use unetbootin
[02:50] <pksadiq> !syslinux | sudoer
[02:51] <pksadiq> sudoer: might be use syslinux
[02:51] <mister_m> is it possible to run the gnome network manager outside of gnome?
[02:51] <sudoer> ill try syslinux
[02:51] <bazhang> mister_m, yes, though why not connect manually
[02:51] <dr3van> yes I have 3 disks in my pc 1: 250gb contains windows and all files still    2:  75gb contains working Ubuntu   3: 1tb  contains all media (movies, music, ect)
[02:51] <MACscr> shoot, i cant resize my swap using gparted. Seems im already at my max for that extended partition. What are my options? Maybe create a file image and use that?
[02:51] <mister_m> bazhang, I tried, I can't get that to work either
[02:51] <dismo> mister_m: if you are talking about nm-applet then yes
[02:51] <razz1> novaspirit: can I please get the model #, and how hard was it setting up? my main concern is encryption, is it safe?
[02:52] <bazhang> mister_m, what exactly did you try, what exact errors did you encounter
[02:52] <MACscr> I have a 2TB drive that is formated with xfs. Can i not resize it and create a 16gb partition on it? gparted isnt letting me
[02:52] <dismo> mister_m: if nm works don't do manual connection
[02:52] <mister_m> bazhang, dhcp couldn't get a lease
[02:52] <tyler_d> Guest16154: can't remember the exact method, but rather then referencing it via /dev/hda....  you reference it by the number...
[02:52] <sudoer> hmm, this really seems like apain
[02:52] <tyler_d> Guest16154: can't remember the technical name for the life of me :(\
[02:52] <rww> !uuid
[02:52] <bazhang> sudoer, it is compared to unetbootin
[02:53] <mister_m> dismo, is the nm-applet the one that runs in gnome by default up on the top panel
[02:53] <bazhang> mister_m, thats not a very descriptive error list
[02:53] <dismo> MACscr: not sure if xfs is resizable but you can also create a file for additinonal swap space
[02:53] <Guest16154> ok, thanks for the help
[02:53] <pksadiq> dr3van: in terminal try sudo apdate-grub
[02:53] <novaspirit> razz1: it's diNOVO Mini from logitech
[02:53] <dismo> mister_m: yes.
[02:54] <mister_m> bazhang, it tried to discover about 6 times, then stopped
[02:54] <mister_m> bazhang, not very exciting
[02:54] <sudoer> bazhang: ok, i iwll try that
[02:54] <bazhang> mister_m, did it associate with the AP, what was the encryption
[02:54] <novaspirit> razz1: its was just all plug and play as long as your mobo supports usb keyboard
[02:54] <novaspirit> razz1: you shouldn't have a problem with anything else
[02:54] <bazhang> mister_m, a pastebin of ifconfig lspci iwconfig would be helpful
[02:55] <dismo> MACscr: man xfs_growfs
[02:55] <dismo> MACscr: you may need to install it first
[02:55] <Slix`> bazhang: "in future consider a separate /home partition" <-- Why?
[02:56] <sudoer> bazhang: is unetbootin only gui, ? i dont have agui
[02:57] <dr3van> pksadiq:  sudo: apdate-grub: command not found
[02:57] <jupi2000> how can i join in #C channel?
[02:57] <rww> dr3van: update-grub, not apdate-grub
[02:57] <jrib> !register | jupi2000
[02:58] <razz1> novaspirit: thankyou
[02:58] <rww> jupi2000: register and identify with nickserv, then /join ##c. See the instructions from ubottu for registration info.

[03:02] <horseatingweeds> Any advice for installing Eclipse as a php IDE?
[03:02] <tacotron> hi guys.. i just installed ubuntu 10.10 x64 on my asus laptop.. and im not getting any sound. my sound card is an Intel 5 Series/3400 chip
[03:02] <bazhang> !pm | yki
[03:02] <matt__> sorry about that.
[03:02] <bazhang> horseatingweeds, install from repos
[03:03] <dismo> !away | Azoriath
[03:04] <doomrobo> This happened just now out of the blue: my comp graphics crashed, I rebooted and now whenever I'm in Visual Effects higher than "None", gnome-panel doesn't show up.
[03:04] <horseatingweeds> bazhang, That's my plan. I'm just wondering what else might be in store.
[03:05] <bazhang> horseatingweeds, apt-cache search eclipse turns up quite a number

[03:07] <sanduz2> im trying to boot into ubuntu on my macbook pro but this guide doesnt seem to work, the usb drive is not available in the boot menu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromImgFiles#Mac OS X
[03:08] <doomrobo> the problem is when it's in autohide, it doesn't come back up
[03:09] <okee> I thought I successfully installed Ubuntu, but gett an error "no active partition".  I don't see how that could be happening.  I followed the prompts exactly as the OS setup requested.  Also, I checked the boot order of the IBM Thinkpad W510 to insure that the hard drive was the first thing loaded.
[03:09] <josephseraos> hey, where I find this conversation in the Net?

[03:11] <ShinjukuTech> Hi all - I'm quite new to Linux and am having some issues with auto-mounting a drive from my NAS, seems to only work if I manually do a 'sudo mount -a' - would anyone have any advice?
[03:11] <dismo> ShinjukuTech: so you put it in fstab?
[03:12] <boldfilter> error: You have local changes to 'extract-files.sh'; cannot switch branches.
[03:12] <rww> ShinjukuTech: What type of network connection are you using? Wifi or wired?
[03:13] <okee> Ubuntu does not have an easy setup.
[03:13] <ShinjukuTech> dismo: yeah I have the mount path string in the fstab: '\\<IP_ADDRESS>\Media /mnt/NAS/Media        cifs    guest,rw,iocharset=utf8... etc'
[03:13] <bazhang> okee, elaborate
[03:13] <okee>  I thought I successfully installed Ubuntu, but gett an error "no active partition".  I don't see how that could be happening.  I followed the prompts exactly as the OS setup requested.  Also, I checked the boot order of the IBM Thinkpad W510 to insure that the hard drive was the first thing loaded.
[03:13] <ShinjukuTech> rww: Its a wired lan
[03:13] <tacotron> does anyone have experience with trouble shooting sound issues? i dunno why my sound isnt working
[03:14] <dismo> ShinjukuTech: rww is probably right in that your network isn't up when it tries to mount the share
[03:14] <mprince> ShinjukuTech: netfs running?
[03:14] <Senix> how do i have ubuntu auto log in and then have a script that plays a song? I'm planning on using my compter as a type of alarm clock, I have my bios auto turn the computer on at a certain time so that is of no matter.
[03:14] <addict> hi i am trying to talk to someone that can use vlc to make multiple screencaps from a movie  like iron man 2 for example i want 100 pictures
[03:14] <okee> anyone have an idea what is wrong?
[03:15] <Senix> okee, what is your problem i may be able to help
[03:15] <ShinjukuTech> Ah OK so i have to get the network up and running before the fstab kicks in?
[03:15] <okee> I still get an error that there is no active partition at bootup
[03:15] <Senix> okee, is this an old install of ubuntu or a new one?
[03:15] <rww> Senix: For autologin, System -> Administration -> Login Screen has an option. For playing a song, run totem or something at login (see the message from ubottu) specifying the file you want to play.
[03:15] <dismo> okee: where do you get this error? in grub or bios?
[03:15] <rww> !startup > Senix
[03:16] <okee> I am not sure what the problem is.  I am unabel to install Ubuntu.  I installed the disks, and followed all of the prompts.  I didn't use the whole drive and only used 100gb with an extra 6 gb swap, rebooted, and now I get an error message indicating that there is no active partition, cannot boot from any device.
[03:16] <Senix> rww, thank you kindly
[03:16] <okee> I think it is in bios.
[03:16] <MACscr> ok, so now i have a 10gb swap. How do i hibernate ubuntu so i can boot into windows?
[03:17] <dismo> okee: do you know who/what gives you this error? (grub, bios, etc...)
[03:17] <addict> who can i talk to for vlc help
[03:17] <Senix> okee, is it asking you to insert a system disc?
[03:17] <josephseraos> I can't find the conversation 2011 01 22
[03:17] <josephseraos> this channel
[03:17] <okee> I am not sure.  I think it is the bios.  it is immediately at bootup.  NO, it is not asking me to insert a disk.
[03:18] <doomrobo>  ok, gnome-panel now works but whenever I click "Autohide" it disappears and does not come back when I hover my mouse on the edge
[03:18] <Senix> okee, you still havent told me, is it a new or old install
[03:18] <okee> After the installation was complete, I was prompted to remove the disk before rebooting.
[03:18] <dismo> MACscr: should be an option now when shutting down. you may have to (logout, restart acpi, etc...,) easiest to just reboot
[03:18] <rww> josephseraos: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2011/01/22/%23ubuntu.html . The site's updated once per hour, at a couple of minutes past the hour.
[03:18] <okee> this is a new installation.
[03:18] <okee> This is my first installation ever of Ubuntu.
[03:19] <lushous> hello!everybody...
[03:19] <doomrobo> is gnome-panel the problem?
[03:19] <Senix> okee, you might have to reinstall there could have been some error during install, make sure your harddrives are in good repair and try again, now don't get updates while do the install get them after and don't install the mp3 codects
[03:19] <josephseraos> rww, ok, thanks
[03:19] <okee> I have already reinstalled three times and get the same error.  I don't know what I am doing wrong.  I didn't have this problem when setting up SUSE......
[03:19] <MACscr> dismo: ok, so i i see the option to hibernate. Once it goes into that mode, what should i do? Press the power button to start the system again and then i should get the grub boot options?
[03:19] <josephseraos> rww, what time is there?
[03:19] <Rothsdad> hi, can I programming ipad apps on Ubuntu??
[03:19] <lushous>
[03:20] <Senix> okee, i have had that error before, it might be grubs fault too, and if SUSE works for you then use it. Its not our fault that you're having problems
[03:20] <Rothsdad> is there iOS sdk for ubuntu?
[03:20] <dismo> MACscr: i guess. never tried it myself :-)

[03:23] <doomrobo> Whenever I click "Autohide" in gnome-panel, it disappears and does not come back when I hover my mouse on the edge. This only happens when I set my appearance settings above "None." This only started happening after my graphics crashed. I have no clue how to fix it. Please help me out.

[03:23] <nofrillz> HunterBukowski, hover your mouse near the middle edge of the screen
[03:24] <Senix> *battery
[03:24] <nofrillz> Senix: its 15 minutes

[03:24] <doomrobo> @Rothsdad No, the only iPhone sdk is for Mac OSX
[03:24] <Senix> okee, wait a maximum of 15 minutes then insert you battery again
[03:24] <okee> Are you serious?  I really have to remove the battery?
[03:24] <okee> Thats awfull.
[03:24] <Senix> okee, yes....
[03:24] <lushous> oh! no ....i got a trouble

[03:25] <lushous> i am from china
[03:25] <nofrillz> it varies from mobo to mobo
[03:25] <Senix> okee, listen to nofrillz he's right
[03:25] <Sonja> what is the channel for ubuntu Djibouti?
[03:25] <okee> so if I just don't reboot for 15 minutes after installing, I should be ok without removing the cmos battery?
[03:25] <Rothsdad> lushous dont understand english
[03:25] <lushous> bye ! i hope to see you again
[03:25] <nofrillz> no
[03:25] <nofrillz> thats the reason why the battery is there
[03:25] <dismo> okee: remove the powerplug as well
[03:25] <nofrillz> so even if its off
[03:26] <nofrillz> the battery still feeds power to it
[03:26] <rww> Sonja: It would be #ubuntu-dj, but there apparently aren't enough Ubuntu users for that country to maintain a channel.
[03:26] <Naeblis> slight problem...why can't i see the .rar files extracted in xubuntu?
[03:26] <nofrillz> thats why things like wakeonlan is possible
[03:26] <mbvpixies78> any help with web server index.html not showing?  (sorry got disconnected)
[03:26] <lushous> i think !i am fall in love with Ubuntu!
[03:26] <dismo> Naeblis: are you using rar-free or rar-nonfree?
[03:26] <Sonja> ubuntu djibouti gets no love :(
[03:26] <mbvpixies78> lushous:  if you do, you'd better sign a prenup
[03:26] <okee> I installed with no battery -- just a power plug.  So you want me to remove the cmos battery/
[03:26] <okee> ??
[03:27] <Naeblis> dismo: err..not sure. their's this archive manager which is pre-installed and is showing the files.but when i extract it, the folder is empty
[03:27] <dismo> !who | okee
[03:27] <HunterBukowski> anyone know any irc channels for Ubuntu web server config?
[03:27] <Naeblis> dismo:also downloaded unrar-free from the terminal, but im not sure how to make it work
[03:27] <thauriswulfa> ufu
[03:28] <dismo> Naeblis: probably using the free version then. install the non-free version
[03:28] <mprince> mbvpixies78: so, you get a 404 when trying to view index.html?
[03:28] <rww> HunterBukowski: that's ontopic for here or #ubuntu-server
[03:28] <josephseraos> rww, I was looking for my conversation. And I found it. Thank you very much
[03:28] <okee> I am confused and not sure what to do.  Someone said something about a battery.  Perhaps they should IM me?
[03:28] <dismo> Naeblis: uninstall the free version. then you should be fine
[03:28] <HunterBukowski> mprince:  no, I get the annoying "It works!" even though it just showed my edited index for a bit
[03:28] <rww> josephseraos: you're welcome
[03:28] <mellin> Ok folks I'm confuse man ls shows -d should list directories. I have tried variations on -d like -ad (all directories?) and I don't get output like I would expect. I mean if I'm at / and issue ls -d I should see many directories. What am I missing?
[03:28] <Naeblis> dismo:I'll try
[03:28] <Sengoku> OT: anyone know a good ER modelling tool for ubuntu/
[03:29] <HunterBukowski> rww:  kk, now if I can get it figured out...
[03:29] <rww> mellin: "ls -d" is for listing dictionaries themselves, rather than the contents of dictionaries. You perhaps want ls -R?
[03:29] <rww> directories **
[03:29] <rww> mellin: (There aren't that many directories directly off /, so I'm assuming you want to recurse.)
[03:30] <mprince> HunterBukowski: did you edit httpd.conf?
[03:30] <mellin> rww: Ok got it..as usual operator error. Thanks though
[03:30] <HunterBukowski> 3mprince:  not on this computer, no don't think so
[03:30] <mellin> rww: Actuall what I want to accomplish is just list all directories in a given path
[03:31] <HunterBukowski> mprince: any advice?
[03:31] <mellin> *Actually*
[03:31] <rww> mellin: find / -type d
[03:31] <rww> assuming you want subdirectories too
[03:31] <HunterBukowski> mprince: where is httpd.conf?  I've never messed with it before
[03:31] <mprince> HunterBukowski: so where did you put your edited page?
[03:32] <HunterBukowski> mprince:  /var/www
[03:32] <mprince> HunterBukowski: http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Deployment_Guide-en-US/s1-apache-config.html
[03:32] <Naeblis> dismo: removed unrar-free, now i'm getting the message that archive not supported.should i just install unrar?
[03:32] <mprince> HunterBukowski: hold on, this is ubuntu
[03:32] <rww> I was about to say...
[03:33] <dismo> Naeblis: unrar-nonfree it's  in the restricted repos i think
[03:33] <rww> multiverse, actually
[03:33] <mprince> HunterBukowski: so inside of /var/www you created an index.html?
[03:34] <mprince> HunterBukowski: what do you see when you go to http:<whatever>/index.html
[03:34] <mbvpixies78> mprince:  yeah, well, there was already one there.  I edited it, it showed up fine in Firefox, then suddenly back to generic it works page...  could it be because I had the file still open in command prompt?
[03:34] <EnigmaticCoder> What command can I use to find out the name of another command. e.g. I want to find out the command to start open office writer
[03:35] <mprince> HunterBukowski: good info here: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/httpd.html
[03:35] <dismo> rww: even worse then ;-)
[03:35] <yki> $ firefox http://<IP_ADDRESS>/~yki, how can i access that remote?
[03:36] <rww> dismo: not really. the stuff in restricted and multiverse is equally non-free, restricted is just stuff that Ubuntu considers a "necessary" evil. drivers and so forth.
[03:36] <HunterBukowski> mprince:  I just tried the index address in windows (different comp) and get a time-out
[03:37] <dismo> rww: i know but i had very bad experiences with multiverse and restricted is afaik "only" closed source
[03:37] <HunterBukowski> mprince:  let me look at what you shared
[03:37] <Naeblis> dismo:success. thanks!!
[03:37] <mprince> HunterBukowski: try from the original server http://localhost/index.html
[03:38] <kerebrus> Anyone good with nvidia vid cards?
[03:39] <HunterBukowski> mprince:  it works perfectly from localhost/index.html (but not localhost)
[03:39] <Jreko> how would i get my hostname on here to be my domain?
[03:40] <rww> Jreko: set up rDNS for your IP address. Considering that it looks like you're using a charter.com DHCP assignment, this is unlikely to happen :\
[03:40] <Jreko> why
[03:41] <rww> Jreko: because consumer ISPs don't generally do custom rDNS
[03:41] <Jreko> i cant use dyndns?
[03:42] <rww> Jreko: dyndns doesn't own your IP address, Charter does.
[03:42] <rewt> Jreko, that's (forward) dns, not reverse
[03:42] <saliak1> Anyone have experience getting digest authentication to work with apache2.2?  basic authentication works fine for me, but I can't figure out why digest isnt' working (the user/pass i put in the htdigest file doesn't work).  i'm not sure what could be going on.  i have a feeling it has to do with the "realm" and "domain" but finding inconsistent answers across the web
[03:42] <rewt> to get your domain to show, your ip has to resolve to it and it has to resolve to your ip
[03:42] <Danny78> mprince:  Hunter here, from Ubuntuland.  Can you send me that URL again?
[03:42] <sandhu> hi i m downloading american army  283 video game    will it run on ubuntu
[03:43] <Jreko> so with dyndns it just resolves to my ip my ip doesnt resolve to it
[03:43] <Jreko> and to get that i gotta use reverse dns
[03:43] <mprince> HunterBukowski: good info here: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/httpd.html
[03:43] <sandhu> hi i m downloading american army  283 video game    will it run on ubuntu
[03:43] <doomrobo> where is my gnome applications menu located?
[03:44] <Jreko> ?
[03:44] <rww> Jreko: correct
[03:44] <sandhu> hi i m downloading american army  283 video game    will it run on ubuntu
[03:44] <mprince> HunterBukowski: can you pastebin the contents of: /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dir.conf
[03:44] <Jreko> so charter would have to do that i wouldnt be able to do that myself?
[03:44] <rww> Jreko: correct
[03:44] <Danny78> oh wow, the link actually works in Ubuntu, unlike Windows
[03:44] <sandhu> hi i m downloading american army  283 video game    will it run on ubuntu
[03:45] <rww> !repeat | sandhu
[03:45] <rewt> sandhu, are you downloading the linux version?
[03:45] <sandhu> yes
[03:46] <rewt> then it should work
[03:46] <rewt> oh, hmm... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AmericasArmy

[03:51] <jschall> how can i restore grub 2 from an ubuntu 10.10 livecd?
[03:51] <ShinjukuTech> How can I check if 'netfs' is running/started?
[03:52] <sandhu> pl tell me Current AA Version 2.8.3 Overmatch Full Version    will it run on linux
[03:52] <iflema> !grub2 | jschall
[03:53] <sandhu> pl tell me Current AA Version 2.8.3 Overmatch Full Version    will it run on linux

[03:56] <gpc> rww: didn't realise there was a difference :)
[03:56] <jgcampbell300> hmm can somone help me undo this port bind ssh -fNL <IP_ADDRESS>:58846:localhost:58846 <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:57] <ShinjukuTech> mprince: cheers I got 'netfs: unrecognized service' - guess its not running/installed
[03:57] <kerebrus> Anyone know why seperate x screens for dual monitors would corrupt xorg.conf and cause the comp to boot to a shell with no graphics.
[03:57] <rww> gpc: Steam runs in WINE. One of its functions is launching other programs that have varying levels of WINE compatibility.
[03:58] <okee> No fills.  I am going to be back a little later.  I have an errand to take care of.
[03:58] <Loshki> jgcampbell300: the binding should go away automatically when the ssh instance terminates...
[03:58] <okee> My Ubuntu is running fine from the CD, it just won't work from the installation.  I will try it with noFrills advice about removing the Cmos battery.
[03:59] <mudit1141> Hi, I am having issues starting up my ubuntu hardy
[03:59] <okee> I am running Ubuntu 10.10  Did the last version have a similar installation problem?
[03:59] <kerebrus> mudit1141 what kind of issues.
[04:00] <Nyt3k> Hey guys, im having a problem with my wireless, after finally getting it to see my network and connect to it, ubuntu connects and says connection established but no pages load and cant ping anything, then it suddenly d/c after 20 seconds and then reconnects again etc in a cycle... internet never works even inbetwen when its "connected" any solutions??
[04:00] <burhan> hi
[04:00] <burhan> wut the hell is this thing

[04:01] <EnigmaticCoder> woops
[04:01] <mudit1141> kerebrus: when starting up I get >>> Running DKMS auto ........[OK], and after that the cursor blinks and blinks
[04:01] <DaGeek247> !ohmy
[04:01] <mudit1141> nothing really happens after that
[04:01] <Nyt3k> DaGeek247 what to check? every other laptop on win/iphone etc all connect to it fine... using WPA only so legacy is on and using TKIP
[04:01] <jgcampbell300> ty
[04:01] <Cpt_Zyph> guys how can i boot with the install cd to command line so i can edit my xorg.conf file??
[04:02] <Cpt_Zyph> my other boot disk dont see ext4 partitions so i can t figure out how to get in and all live cds dont work with video card 8(
[04:02] <yeats> !alternate | Cpt_Zyph
[04:02] <Cpt_Zyph> yeats i have the alternate install cd
[04:02] <yeats> Cpt_Zyph: that will allow you to boot into a "rescue mode" with a shell
[04:03] <DaGeek247> ok. i cant really help then. my old router sometimes does that and needs a reset to fix it.
[04:03] <Cpt_Zyph> yeats that works ofr the install but once it trys to boot the x11 is all messed up and i can't read anything
[04:03] <mudit1141> kerebrus: I used a boot info script, and these are the results >> http://pastie.org/1488017
[04:03] <Cpt_Zyph> yeats i see.. when i did rescue mode it looked like the installer so i stopped it.. ill try again
[04:03] <Nyt3k> DaGeek247 oh ok.. thanks anyways this prob sucks big time and nothing onit online really, since i cant acess even router from it i think its a setting/OS problem not hardware..
[04:03] <Nyt3k> man they should have some network diagnostic application that sees problems and fixes lol
[04:03] <Nyt3k> anyone know maybe it exists?
[04:04] <yeats> Cpt_Zyph: it will boot up like the installer... just follow all the steps until it brings up a menu with rescue optiojns
[04:04] <yeats> *options
[04:04] <DaGeek247> Nyt3kgoole is your freind for ubuntu network troublshoot software

[04:07] <PoGoGoD> Hello i am wondering if someone could help me out with how to install a wireless driver on the new ubuntu 10.10 i have no clue
[04:08] <Nyt3k> DaGeek247 now im getting an error saying bad password.......when the password is right... i tried WPA and WPA 1/2 ...
[04:08] <mudit1141> kerebrus: so what might be wrong ?
[04:08] <Loshki> mudit1141: can you boot into a different kernel or does it happen with them all?
[04:08] <DaGeek247> so, its over he wireless?
[04:08] <ShinjukuTech> As I don't think NETFS is running ('service netfs status' results in: 'netfs: unrecognized service') any advice on how I can start/install it?
[04:09] <Nyt3k> i tried both WPA 1/2 (Passphrase) and WPA 1/2 (Preshared Key) the router is on WPA but it should connect, i can easily connect using other laptops i think some setting is wrong im using wicd btw to connect now
[04:09] <mudit1141> Loshki: it happens with all of them
[04:09] <kerebrus> mudit1141 sorry you got me stumped
[04:09] <Nyt3k> DaGeek247 maybe some driver problem? using the broadcom STA wireless driver
[04:09] <mudit1141> cricket fan ?
[04:09] <Faris> Hi . Does anyone know where flash's config file is ?
[04:10] <DaGeek247> Nyt3k :  the wireless has auto DHCP enabled?
[04:10] <PoGoGoD> can someone help me or guide me with installing wireless drivers please. I am new to ubuntu
[04:10] <mudit1141> okay, so I was trying to enable boot logging
[04:10] <Faris> 'cause I need to disable hardware acceleration and I can't do that through flash itself
[04:10] <DaGeek247> i really have no idea
[04:10] <mudit1141> will that help ?
[04:11] <kerebrus> mudit1141 you enabled boot logging and then got that error?
[04:11] <DaGeek247> :/
[04:11] <kerebrus> mudit1141 did you do anything else before hand.
[04:11] <Roasted> does ubuntu netbook remix run poorly for anybody else on netbook hardware (1.6ghz atom, 1gb ram, intel gfx) while desktop edition runs great?
[04:12] <rww> Roasted: Yes. 11.04 is better in that regard; uses Compiz instead of Mutter.
[04:12] <Nyt3k> DaGeek247 ye its enabled, i even see the ubuntu under DHCP clients list with <IP_ADDRESS> IP and time with mac address...
[04:12] <Loshki> mudit1141: I assume it used to work. Can you tell me anything about what was going on before the failure started?
[04:12] <Sengoku> OT: anyone know a good ER modelling tool for ubuntu/
[04:12] <Roasted> rww, thats funny - I had 11.04 on a flash drive and when I booted up it said incompatible with my hardware.....
[04:13] <rww> Roasted: heh
[04:13] <mudit1141> kerebrus: nope it happened before enable boot logging , well this is really weird but I started my machine after a 6 months sabbatical
[04:13] <Danny78> mprince:  you still there?
[04:13] <Roasted> rww, oh well, I can dream, cant I? *says a little prayer hoping 11.04 wont bomb on netbook hardware upon final release*
[04:14] <mykal> hi all. looking to try and improve my graphics. moves play jerkilly in the media player, and youtube is unviewable when fullscreen. $ lspci | grep VGA ... gives response ... 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV6 [Vanta/Vanta LT] (rev 15).

[04:14] <kuru> hi.. I'm trying to use WindowMaker on my older thinkpad laptop.. but it doesn't seem to recognize the wireless card so I don't get online
[04:14] <Loshki> mudit1141: can you boot a live cd?
[04:15] <kuru> it configures nicely under Gnome, but not windowmaker.. how can I have it configured without going through either .. just on boot-up?
[04:15] <Cpt_Zyph> ok well im in the command line but the xorg.conf file is not in /etc/X11 ... im trying to change to vesa mode so i can boot the gui and get things installed correctly
[04:16] <DaGeek247> Nyt3k :  goto <IP_ADDRESS> in any connected system
[04:16] <Nyt3k> yea
[04:16] <mudit1141> Loshki: i haven't tried that yet
[04:16] <DaGeek247> on an internet browser like firefox
[04:16] <mykal> kuru, not sure which file you need to edit, i think its gedit.conf. you need to add the security key to it on boot. will be a command like ifconfig wlan0 up ssid wpa or similar
[04:16] <mykal> kuru, man ifconfig
[04:17] <Nyt3k> DaGeek247 im already there
[04:17] <DaGeek247> tell me if ou see anyhing strange
[04:17] <Nyt3k> nothing..
[04:17] <debugnet> robinhood: welcome
[04:17] <Danny78> anyone know where the "Listen"  option goes in the sites-enabled Ubuntu apache2 web server config file?
[04:17] <mykal> kuru, oh, and the file is more likely init.rd
[04:17] <Loshki> mudit1141: if you boot the live cd we can poke around the filesystm and (maybe) get it booting again...
[04:17] <DaGeek247> haveyou checked the misbehaving computer's wireless card?
[04:17] <mudit1141> Loshki: kerebrus : these are my kernal logs from 10 days ago, it says something failed with my nvidia driver >> http://pastie.org/1488955
[04:18] <iflema> Cpt_Zyph: in a terminal type     man Xorg     in particular the  -configure  option
[04:18] <Danny78> I can't find anythign about it because the actual file is the name you choose for your site
[04:18] <Cpt_Zyph> humm not sure were to edit xserver so i can get it to not use the video settings it has ..
[04:18] <Nyt3k> DaGeek247 yup it has win 7 dual on it and works fine
[04:18] <mudit1141> Loshki: i can access the file system through recovery mode
[04:19] <Danny78> Cpt_Zyph:  xorg.conf I think
[04:19] <Cpt_Zyph> Danny78 well im trying to find that xorg.conf file tho to edit it so i can tell it to use vesa as a fresh install my video is broken..
[04:20] <KM0201> Nyt3k: what exactlyis your prob, if oud on't mind me asking
[04:20] <warriorf1rGod> how can I set a static resolv.conf?
[04:20] <GoteX> GN8
[04:20] <dismo> mudit1141: can you confirm that the videocard is still fully working? (3d, etc...)
[04:20] <GoteX> hi ^
[04:20] <xangua> Cpt_Zyph: there is no xorg.file in ubuntu, create one
[04:21] <dismo> mudit1141: oh wait. nvm.
[04:21] <dismo> mudit1141: reinstalling the nvidia drivers should solve the issue
[04:21] <chd> if I want to run a script from shell and then not have to keep shell open whats the switch for that?
[04:21] <Cpt_Zyph> ok so even tho i added the option on install "xforcevesa" nothing changed from a normal install.. so now im in the counsole on recovery mode..
[04:22] <dismo> chd: use screen or dtach
[04:22] <Cpt_Zyph> i have never made an xorg.file before..
[04:22] <Danny78> Cpt_Zyph...  sorry, dunno what to suggest, my notes are blank on that topic
[04:22] <mykal> i see there are driver packages available in the ubuntu repos for nvidia drivers, how do i tell which is best for me?
[04:22] <Cpt_Zyph> xangua is there a template i can use of some kind i dont quite know what to enter for such a file
[04:22] <Danny78> mykal:  go to NVIDIA web site, it will tell you
[04:22] <mudit1141> dismo: i suppose, you are telling that a kernel upgrade messed up my nvidia drivers ?
[04:22] <mykal> Danny78, thanks
[04:22] <Danny78> mykal:  np
[04:23] <dismo> Cpt_Zyph: sudo Xorg -configure should do the trick
[04:23] <dismo> mudit1141: not sure what messed it up.
