[08:49] <bullgard6> onre: Thank you for your help. Using your information I can now continue snooping.
[08:49] <andyn> dhcp uses two ports to distinguish server traffic from client traffic
[08:50] <andyn> the udp protocol is connectionless, after all.
[08:51] <onre> andyn, yup, something like that. i've happily forgotten details :)
[08:53] <rams_pandu> how to install j2me in ubuntu 10.04??
[08:55] <debasher> http://cs11035.vkontakte.ru/u226973/143686298/x_c8402f0f.jpg
[08:55] <donald> Hello
[08:56] <Guest43067> Does anyone know how to get Paltalk Express to work in Ubuntu?
[08:58] <Detergentizer> dont do it
[08:59] <Guest43067> Paltalk Express worked fine until Adobe updated their flash player.
[09:01] <_hase> Is there anyone here who could help me with a problem I'm having with wine?
[09:02] <llutz_> !anyone | _hase
[09:03] <_hase> See I'm using  wine to run a program that edits the plugins for the game but the program I'm running uses a search patterns for DirectoryInfo.GetFiles that looks like *?...esm but wine doesn't detect that unless I change the fiel name to include a ?
[09:03] <pigiman> hey, at work we have a dev server with ubuntu (most updated), every hour our server is restarting and there are no "wired" things in the logs
[09:03] <pigiman> any ideas ?
[09:03] <_hase> and if I dot that it says that it's an illegal character
[09:03] <Detergentizer> wow, wine is still used
[09:03] <pigiman> we are using ssh to upload files to this server, and we have mysql and apache
[09:03] <pigiman> and php
[09:04] <_hase> Is there another way Dtergentizer?
[09:04] <dazz> hey peeps
[09:04] <Besogon> pigiman: Have you checked cron?
[09:04] <dazz> can anyone recommend which ubuntu or derivative to install on an EEE pc netbook?
[09:05] <pigiman> Besogon: yeah, nothing suspicious there :|
[09:05] <Nom-> dazz: There is a Ubuntu for netbooks
[09:05] <tresk> So many option what to do for installing the latest NVidia driver, but which one ois the best... X:ppa or download driver and install manually?
[09:05] <inad922> Can someone suggest me a program with which I can make some desktop notifications? Like I would like to set a time and a text and I would like the text to pop up at the given time.
[09:05] <bullgard6> pigiman: I do not know what a 'dev server' is. But I am sure that /var/log/dmesg.0 will tell you the cause of your trouble.
[09:05] <Besogon> dazz: I have installed simply ubuntu 11.10.
[09:05] <llutz_> pigiman: "every hour"  always same time/period or more or less "hourly"?
[09:06] <pigiman>  bullgard6 - will check again
[09:06] <Jorky> Hello guys. I've got dualcore 2.0 Gb processor and I am using latest Ubuntu x64. I check and installed cpufrequtils but processor speed is stil 1.2 Gb using by system. How Can I fix this that system will use full proc. speed? Thnx. Please Help
[09:06] <pigiman> llutz_:  - exacly
[09:06] <Nom-> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download <-- see the -netbook- iso's
[09:06] <llutz_> pigiman: check cronjobs twice
[09:07] <llutz_> pigiman: check what time it restarts, what jobs run around that time
[09:07] <pigiman> llutz_:  OK, re-checking
[09:08] <Jorky> Hello guys. I've got dualcore 2.0 Gb processor and I am using latest Ubuntu x64. I check and installed cpufrequtils but processor speed is stil 1.2 Gb using by system. How Can I fix this that system will use full proc. speed? Thnx. Please Help
[09:11] <dazz> Nom: i looked on the ubuntu website and see that they discontinued UNR
[09:11] <dazz> Besogon: I have just finished an install of Pinguy 11.10 on my netbook, and it is lagging big time. doesnt seem to like something???
[09:11] <lunitik> dazz: just as a naming convention, UNR is what became Unity
[09:11] <llutz_> dazz: have a look on lubuntu, should run fine even on weaker hardware. there is no special netbook-distro anymore
[09:12] <Nom-> Yeah, I was about to suggest it was converged now
[09:12] <dr_willis> hmm
[09:12] <Nom-> In 11.10
[09:12]  * lunitik would recommend Xubuntu or Kubuntu over Lubuntu... LXde is not a very good DE at all
[09:12] <dazz> so i i just install unity thats basically the netbook version?
[09:12] <Nom-> Starting with UNE 10.10, the interface was switched to Unity. Due to the desktop version of Ubuntu also being changed to the Unity interface, the netbook edition was rolled into the general Ubuntu distribution starting with Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal and the netbook edition was discontinued as a separate distribution.[1]
[09:13] <Nom-> There you go... Wikipedia knows all :)
[09:13] <Jorky> Anyone know how to set max. cpu speed?
[09:13] <dazz> ah right.
[09:13] <Abhinav1> I am trying Ubuntu 11.10 live Cd and it is asking me to enter username and password.. what should I provide as username and password
[09:14] <dazz> so then question is which of these is going to be the quickest (cpu speed wise): unity, Lubuntu, Xubuntu?
[09:14] <Jorky> Hello guys. I've got dualcore 2.0 Gb processor and I am using latest Ubuntu x64. I check and installed cpufrequtils but processor speed is stil 1.2 Gb using by system. How Can I fix this that system will use full proc. speed? Thnx. Please Help
[09:14] <lunitik> dazz: Essentially, although it is quite different from the first iterations of the netbook interface as well
[09:14] <dazz> its for my mom's netbook, so need something really simple for her
[09:15] <pigiman>  bullgard6 - dmesg is empty
[09:15] <lunitik> dazz: I think she will enjoy regular Ubuntu, although it'll prolly be unity-2d - basically the same, but without 3D rendering, uses Qt but you don't notice
[09:15] <Nom-> Is it bad form to post links to lmgtfy?  How can I explain this result although the DEB program package »bootpc« is not installed?
[09:16] <llutz_> bullgard6: sudo lsof -i :68
[09:16] <lunitik> dazz: Unity makes a lot of effort to save pixels for the small screen size of netbooks... otherwise it feels much the same as old Gnome2
[09:16] <dazz> haha, yeah, its the support i am worried about.. ok. i will install unity quick on pinguy 11.10 and see how it goes.
[09:16] <dazz> thanks guys for the help!
[09:16] <CaptAnon> What are you looking for  dazz
[09:16] <dazz> how do i get it to boot into unity-2d automatically?
[09:16] <lunitik> CaptAnon: he wants a netbook-suitable desktop
[09:16] <mrpink57> dazz: I would do simple ubuntu, not much can go wrong and then just put a few shortcuts on the desktop for internet and whatever programs she wants.
[09:17] <fling> hello! do you use Jira?
[09:17] <lunitik> dazz: it should just choose it... but from the settings menu (the circle icon next to the name on the login manager) you can choose it
[09:17] <llutz_> bullgard6: use "netstat -lup" if you want to see ports and not correspopnding services from /etc/services in the list
[09:18] <lunitik> dazz: it'll be like "Unity Low Graphics" or "Unity Fallback" or some such
[09:18] <Jonii> how do I kill my web cam? it activates by itself all the time and uses a lot of power
[09:18] <lunitik> dazz: you can just install unity-2d as well
[09:18] <llutz_> Jonii: blacklist webcam modules
[09:18] <CaptAnon> Yeah Is the unity on the new ubuntu much better, I wont be able to try it out for a couple of weeks?
[09:18] <lunitik> dazz: from pinguy, no need to install the whole caboodle to try 2D
[09:18] <Jonii> llutz_: how?
[09:19] <dazz> yeah thanks guys. i have just booted into unity-2d. but there seems to be compositing on it? thought it was no 3d?
[09:19] <lunitik> CaptAnon: It is basically the same, just more integrated with different things
[09:19] <BlackDalek> HI, is it possible to set a page border in Libre Office Writer on only one page in a document?
[09:19] <llutz_> Jonii: find out which kernelmodule it uses,blacklist it in /etc/modprobe.d/*
[09:19] <lunitik> dazz: it is faux compositing...
[09:20] <Jonii> whats kernel module?
[09:20] <dazz> ah i see, so it just running docky
[09:20] <CaptAnon> Is there anyway to stop files comming up when people type stuff into the unity search bar. I can't let other people use my computer because of it.
[09:20] <lunitik> dazz: no, the dash is implemented in QML
[09:20] <pigiman> OK, we are using Zend Studio to upload our local files to a remote sever which is our DEV server (LAMP server). Files are being uploaded onsave event and by using SSH connection. We are ~6 developers that use this server. Is there any chance that there are "too much" SSH connections or "too much" files are being uploaded and then the server is down because of it?
[09:20] <lunitik> dazz: in -2d at least
[09:21] <Jonii> its "USB Device: CNF9011 (Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd.)"
[09:21] <Jorky> Hello guys. I've got dualcore 2.0 Gb processor and I am using latest Ubuntu x64. I check and installed cpufrequtils but processor speed is stil 1.2 Gb using by system. How Can I fix this that system will use full proc. speed? Thnx. Please Help
[09:21] <lunitik> dazz: On 3D, there is heavy use of Compiz... but that is why they went with Qt, cuz it does much the same stuff without killing the graphics card
[09:21] <llutz_> pigiman: if that "server" is a piece of prehistoric weak and old hardware, maybe. watch systemload
[09:22] <lunitik> Jorky: processors aren't measured in GB... where are you looking that you think it isn't running at peak performance?
[09:23] <Jorky> by cpufreq command
[09:23] <bullgard6> llutz_:  '~$ sudo lsof -i :68; COMMAND= dhclient3;   PID=883;  USER=root;   FD=4u;    TYPE= IPv4;  DEVICE=7242;  SIZE/OFF=0t0;  NODE NAME=UDP *:bootpc'.  So my interpretation is that in the output of '~$ netstat -lu' the identifier 'bootpc' does not identify a program but the portnumber 68. Is this correct?
[09:23] <dazz> ok great, thanks for the info
[09:23] <pigiman> llutz_ :|
[09:24] <dazz> i am in unity 2d, and running much better. i am just going to tweak it a bit. get rid of conky etc... and should be ready to go :)
[09:24] <Jorky> one core speed is 2.0000000 and one is 12000000 but both need to be 200000 by default and I don't know how to setup that
[09:24] <Jorky> becouse that my video is slow in ubuntu
[09:24] <Jorky> so please help
[09:24] <llutz_> bullgard6: correct
[09:25] <llutz_> bullgard6: those port <-> service relation comes from /etc/services
[09:26] <Jorky> anyone here?
[09:27] <nate_> how do i use a already created partiton with the ubuntu installer?
[09:28] <bullgard6> llutz_:  (I had a look in /etc/services before I asked my last question in this channel.) Thank you very much for your help.
[09:28] <scarleo> CaptAnon: I haven't tried it but removing unity-lens-files should prevent files from showing up
[09:29] <ztane> anyone using ubuntu as vmware guest on macos host?
[09:29] <ztane> symlinks do not resolve on shared partitions...
[09:29] <ztane> *folders
[09:29] <Jorky> c'mon guys anyone knows hot to set up proper cpu speed?
[09:29] <nate_> how do i use a already created partiton with the ubuntu installer?
[09:30] <ztane> nate_: hmm, you have an empty partition you want to use completely?
[09:30] <nate_> ztane: yes
[09:30] <llutz_> nate_: iirc the installer has an "expert" or "advanced" mode, when it comes to partitions. there you should be able to specify the mountpoint for your filesystem
[09:31] <Jorky> nate: You need to add user privilegies to that paritition
[09:31] <nate_> what should i set mountpoint to?
[09:31] <nate_> sorry I'm a bit new to linux
[09:32] <llutz_> nate_: whereever you want it to mount
[09:32] <Jorky> sudo chown -R user:user /path/to/paritition and then sudo chmod -R 774 /path/to /paritition I think but I am not sure
[09:32] <bullgard6> Jorky: The Ubuntu kernel will automatically set the proper CPU speed. If the value is not correct in your computer, please report an error to Launchpad.
[09:32] <Jorky> nate: pardon sudo chown -R user:user /path/to/paritition and then sudo chmod -R 775 /path/to /paritition I think but I am not sure
[09:32] <Jorky> well I hate that in ubuntu
[09:33] <llutz_> nate_: if you want to install the system on it, just chose "/" for it
[09:33] <nate_> ok brb
[09:33] <Jorky> ubuntu is very disapointing me
[09:33] <Jorky> very very disapointing
[09:34] <ztane> :D
[09:34] <Jorky> so if I not fix this problem I probably switch to other distro
[09:35] <mrpink57> Jorky: isn't it suppose to be chown -R user:group?
[09:35] <Detergentizer>             shoud i iunstall nvidie kermk
[09:35] <llutz_> chown/chmod something for the installer makes no sense at all
[09:36] <wh1zz0> It's chown -R user group
[09:36] <Jorky> mrpink57: No, you add user to that group lather with gpasswd command
[09:36] <llutz_> wh1zz0: wrong
[09:36] <wh1zz0> But it can also be chgrp
[09:36] <Jorky> I done that and it's working
[09:36] <Jorky> user:user trust me
[09:36] <mrpink57> Jorky: I guess the man page is wrong then
[09:37] <llutz_> user:user because ubunut uses usergroups where username=groupname
[09:37] <Jorky> how to report a bug in ubuntu for godsake
[09:37] <llutz_> ubuntu*
[09:37] <Jorky> I am on ubuntu from long time and oh my god it so fucking complicated
[09:38] <Jorky> and Ubuntu is user frendly? c'mon
[09:38] <wh1zz0> chgrp <group name> /path/to/dir
[09:38] <mrpink57> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs
[09:38] <Jorky> even basic things don't work
[09:38] <Jorky> wh1zz0: It more than one path to add user to group
[09:39] <wh1zz0> Wht's the question exactly again
[09:39] <Jorky> omg I am frekingout
[09:39] <wh1zz0> ?
[09:39] <Jorky> Ubuntu is my beloved distro but...

[09:44] <Jorky> oh guys I am sad now
[09:45] <Jorky> No one wants help me
[09:45] <html> hey
[09:45] <llutz_> Jorky: do you want help or do you just want to whine?
[09:45] <iceroot> Jorky: less /etc/issue
[09:45] <html> Jorky,  what do you need?
[09:45] <Jorky> llutz_ 10. I want help but nobody take me seriusly
[09:45] <iceroot> Jorky: i am still waiting for the output
[09:46] <llutz_> Jorky: your attitude makes it difficult to take you serious
[09:46] <Jorky> I cant do tings so quicly cause I am first time from long time in ubuntu
[09:46] <html> Jorky,  what do you need? HeLlo??? am i talking to a bot ?
[09:46] <Myrtti> Jorky: 10? er
[09:46] <mrpink57> if cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors does not show anything then it is not loaded or installed
[09:46] <Jorky> html: My sistem doesn't recognize ful cpu speed by default
[09:47] <llutz_> mrpink57: in that case, he wouldn't get a "command not found"
[09:47] <ztane> there should be a space after "cat" ;)
[09:47] <Jorky> llutz_ 10: But I installed cpugreq-utils
[09:47] <html> Jorky,  tell me what you want and what you have to work with..
[09:47] <mrpink57> llutz_: it would say no such file or dir not command not found
[09:47] <llutz_> Jorky: give us the info we requested
[09:48] <llutz_> mrpink57: correct
[09:48] <llutz_>  10:41 < Jorky> command not found
[09:48] <Jorky> llutz_ 10: Ok OK guys
[09:48] <mrpink57> llutz_: so he did not run the command properly
[09:48] <html> llutz, Jorky  agreed... or i might just leave..if not
[09:48] <llutz_> mrpink57: and refuses to give any info
[09:48] <iceroot> lets stop guessing, if he has usefull infos we can help if not we can not help
[09:49] <Jorky> This gives me a command: conservative ondemand userspace powersave performance
[09:49] <fmoritz> greetings, where might I find a good artist friendly dark grey theme for ubuntu?
[09:49] <llutz_> Jorky: cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
[09:49] <mrpink57> that's good news
[09:49] <Jorky> llutz_ 10: yes this gives me : userspace
[09:50] <Jorky> just that
[09:50] <llutz_> Jorky: cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor
[09:50] <html> Jorky,   what os are you running , and your type of cpu ?
[09:51] <mrpink57> Jorky: the userspace is to be manually set
[09:51] <Jorky> html: for 100x Ubuntu 11.10 x64 with intel dual core 2.0Ghz proc
[09:51] <llutz_> Jorky: sudo cpufreq--selector -g ondemand
[09:51] <Jorky> sudo: cpufreq--selector: command not found
[09:51] <llutz_> Jorky: then check again:        cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cpufreq/scaling_governor
[09:52] <llutz_> Jorky: sudo cpufreq-selector -g ondemand              typo, sry
[09:52] <Myrtti> Jorky: you haven't actually said 11.10 at any time...
[09:52] <Jorky> I said latest ubuntu
[09:52] <html> Jorky,  dont get snobby with me ! i just go in here . im trying to help
[09:52] <Jorky> that means ubuntu 11.10
[09:53] <Jorky> html:sorry but this realy nurves me
[09:53] <llutz_> !attitude | Jorky
[09:53] <Jorky> html: sudo cpufreq-selector -g ondemand  nothing happens
[09:53] <iceroot> Jorky: just post usefull infos in one line and put the name of the person infront of the line
[09:53] <llutz_> Jorky: then check again:        cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cpufreq/scaling_governor
[09:53] <html> Jorky,  care who you talk to like that
[09:54] <Jorky> html: I said sorry ok. I preseate your help
[09:54] <html> Jorky,  cuz by default its all really that
[09:54] <Jorky> html: cat: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cpufreq/scaling_govern: No such file or directory
[09:54] <lunitik> Jorky: thing is, cpufreq just isn't a command... so it seems to everyone you're just making stuff up, you don't even know that CPU's are measured in hertz not bytes
[09:54] <llutz_> Jorky: read again, you cut the command
[09:55] <mrpink57> Jorky: sudo cpufreq-set -c $i -g ondemand; done
[09:55] <fmoritz> what do I use to make my own themes?
[09:55] <llutz_> lunitik: cpufreq-selector IS a command
[09:55] <lunitik> llutz_: yes, but he said 'cpufreq'
[09:56] <html> Jorky,  do you remember the gui govener you can set on the gnome bar  ?  in 10,10?
[09:56] <llutz_> Jorky:  cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cpufreq/scaling_governor
[09:56] <mrpink57> Jorky: you have to do it twice I believe for both cores
[09:56] <Jorky> llutz: ondemand 2x
[09:57] <llutz_> Jorky: now check frequencies if you put some load on the cpu
[09:57] <Jorky> llutz: what's proper commad for that?
[09:58] <html> system manger Jorky
[09:58] <Jorky> I am first time in Unity so I am litlle bit slow
[09:58] <llutz_> Jorky: like: watch  cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq
[09:59] <llutz_> Jorky: there should be graphical tools aswell
[09:59] <Jorky> llutz: Both cores still with 1.2Ghz :(
[09:59] <llutz_> Jorky: did you put some load on the cpu?
[09:59] <Jorky> llutz: I think not  :( How to do that?
[10:00] <llutz_> Jorky: watch some videos
[10:00] <AlanBell> Jorky: time perl -e 'for($i=0;$i<1e9;$i++) { }'
[10:00] <Jorky> Am...what now?
[10:01] <Jorky> I am confused now, sorry
[10:01] <mrpink57> sudo gedit /etc/conf.d/cpufreq you should be able to edit everything in there and it's laid out
[10:02] <AlanBell> Jorky: open two terminals, in one, "watch  cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq" in the other "time perl -e 'for($i=0;$i<1e9;$i++) { }'" you should see the numbers in the first one dance about (and probably hear a fan responding to the load)
[10:03] <Jorky> I think its best if someone gives me a link to documetation how to set up core speed becouse I am confused becouse of different answers :/
[10:04] <hackbert130> lol Jorky Troll
[10:04] <mrpink57> https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cpufrequtils
[10:04] <Jorky> mrpink57: I done that but no luck
[10:05] <AlanBell> Jorky: just use your computer and forget about core speeds, it is doing it all for you, don't worry about it
[10:05] <llutz_> Jorky: you don't want to have your cpu running on max_freqall the time
[10:06] <mrpink57> Jorky: did what?  go to the bottom at the daemon part
[10:06] <Jorky> llutz so what's the point of proc anway than? I want to use full speed not half of speed
[10:06] <zymurgy> A cooler machine lives longer, and the machine that runs slower generally runs cooler.
[10:06] <mrpink57> I suppose you could just as easily remove cpufrequtils...
[10:06] <llutz_> Jorky: it speeds up if it needs to, thats how it should work
[10:07] <Jorky> mrpink57. I done that procedure but cpu speed is still on 1.2Ghz instead of 2GHz
[10:07] <html> Jorky,  llutz agreed .... and since this is new  os ,  it can cause a lot of trouble..... and youll NEVER know it was this
[10:07] <Jorky> html: so thanx to explain to me that Ubuntu actualy SUCKS
[10:07] <AlanBell> Jorky: ok, in a car that is parked the engine will tick over at about 1000 rpm right?
[10:07] <AlanBell> Jorky: your computer is idle at tickover speed
[10:08] <Jorky> thnx for help guys but I am going to switch back to Arch
[10:08] <netraameht> ...
[10:08] <Jorky> bye
[10:08] <html> Jorky,  then get a flash drive and move files
[10:08] <AlanBell> Jorky: if you drive off (or play a video) the engine respods
[10:08] <html> Jorky,  wait
[10:08] <anAngel> Hello. Anyone to know the easiest way to block access to certain domains/urls over https with transparent squid? I have already done that over the http but https isn't going through proxy. My FW settings are correct for both http and https redirection to the proxy.
[10:08] <llutz_> i should have gone, feeding the ducks ...
[10:08] <Jorky> AlanBell: I havent any problem in Arch with that but in ubuntu omg
[10:08] <AlanBell> Jorky: if arch is running your processor at 2Ghz constantly then it is a problem!
[10:09] <Jorky> I can't even set cpu speed, c'mon
[10:09] <Detergentizer>  basically. i have iot running
[10:09] <Detergentizer> i was able to edit by hand and com
[10:09] <Jorky> AlanBell. Why?
[10:09] <Detergentizer> and compile kernel from command line
[10:09] <AlanBell> Jorky: if your car is parked you don't need to rev it at 6000 rpm, waste of petrol right?
[10:09] <Jorky> I need explenation becouse I want to understand how system works
[10:09] <Detergentizer> 0dont lmknow how good build is
[10:10] <Detergentizer> but it is workng with nvida latest drivers\
[10:10] <MeirD> How can i list file using ls that only have 5 characters?
[10:10] <html> Jorky,  this is  cuz of many thing s chaning and we havent gotin synced ,,,  but i say go to 10.10 or 10.04 lts  so you cant get the "roots " lol for this os
[10:10] <llutz_> MeirD: ls ?????
[10:10] <Jorky> AlanBell: But cpu is not a car and system works much more faster and better with full cpu speed
[10:11] <MeirD> yeah, but use ls to print only files with length of 5
[10:11] <hackbert130> Jorky wrong.
[10:11] <Jorky> why?
[10:11] <Jorky> explain
[10:11] <AlanBell> Jorky: it is a good analogy. Your processor speeds up if it needs to respond to load.
[10:11] <hackbert130> because overheat
[10:12] <hackbert130> thats why ur fan is that loud while decompressing large archives
[10:12] <Jorky> AlanBell: Ok why nobody said this in first place, but I still need some documentation about that
[10:12] <html> Jorky,  just a sec
[10:12] <Jorky> alanBell: and what is point of cpufreq utils than?
[10:14] <Jorky> I'll remove cpufrequtils now
[10:14] <Detergentizer> the guy that was not liking 11.10 as i did u get your issue fixed?
[10:14] <Jorky> removed*
[10:15] <Jorky> So I should be no worry about cpu speed?
[10:15] <AlanBell> indeed, don't worry about it
[10:15] <hackbert130> Jorky: the background is power dissipation in FET`s if you are interested. Everything should be fine with your speed.
[10:16] <AlanBell> Jorky: from the cpufreq-info man page "A small tool which prints out cpufreq information helpful to developers and interested users"
[10:16] <wh1zz0> Hmm
[10:17] <wh1zz0> Guys.... please does anyone know why I keep getting this mixed colored view on my gedit screen? http://imagebin.org/187058 ... Even though I have the theme as green on black (matrix)
[10:17] <Detergentizer>  i have bug to fix
[10:17] <Detergentizer> my igoncs are broke
[10:17] <wh1zz0> Wrong channel?
[10:17] <Detergentizer> everyint looks like a document
[10:17] <AlanBell> wh1zz0: just nobody knows the answer
[10:17] <Nikki_> Hi!
[10:18] <Jorky> .9AlanBell: OK thnx guy a lot finaly we agree on something :D
[10:18] <Jorky> thnx to all
[10:18]  * conntrack does an evil stare
[10:19] <Jorky> cpy and out
[10:19] <AlanBell> wh1zz0: ok, presume it isn't selected text?
[10:19] <Jorky> copy and out :D*
[10:19] <wh1zz0> AlanBell:  Yes it isn;t selected text.. But normally it's supposed to show as green wheather selected or not
[10:20] <html> Jorky, r u still there?
[10:20] <Detergentizer> y are my icons freaked up?
[10:21] <html> Jorky r u still there?
[10:21] <AlanBell> wh1zz0: just that colour scheme? are others like cobalt like that too?
[10:21] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Any hidden character. does gedit have a :set list type option?
[10:21] <wh1zz0> AlanBell: You are somehow correct because when I higlight the white part, it turns green... But this wasn't how it used to function before.. It always showed green wheather text was highlighted or not.. So if this is the case how can I adjust it to function properly.. Just this scheme, yeah
[10:22] <wh1zz0> deej1976: How do you mean?
[10:22] <AlanBell> wh1zz0: something specific to that document?
[10:23] <deej1976> wh1zz0: if you open the file in vi you might see an hidden characters before your second paragraph
[10:23] <wh1zz0> AlanBell: I just checked the cobalt, it works fine.. But this matrix keeps showing me partial white which is quite irritating
[10:23] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Really?
[10:24] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Okie after I do vi file.txt what do I look for as hidden and how can I fix this?
[10:24] <deej1976> in a terminal: vi textfilename.txt
[10:24] <wh1zz0> AlanBell: All documents act this way, not just the specific document
[10:24] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Done
[10:24] <Detergentizer> nevermind
[10:24] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Is it all documents?
[10:24] <AlanBell> wh1zz0: all from line 30?
[10:25] <Detergentizer> i fixed it by resetting desktop desktp file
[10:25] <Detergentizer> .unity
[10:26] <wh1zz0> deej1976: I just opened another txt file using vi and I see something at the end of each line.... ^M
[10:26] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Strange.. what does that mean?
[10:26] <deej1976> wh1zz0: It's a dos carridge return
[10:26] <wh1zz0> deej1976:  Also, how do I exit vi? ctrl x doesnt work
[10:27] <iceroot> wh1zz0: should be a windows-file with there newline
[10:27] <deej1976> wh1zz0: esc esc :q!
[10:27] <wh1zz0> deej1976: iceroot:  Uhmm.. okie cool.. So that has nothing to do with this issue
[10:27] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Is that the hidden character you mentioned?
[10:27] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Not if it's happen to all files from line 30.
[10:28] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Line 30? Why line 30?
[10:29] <CaptAnon> Ctrl q?
[10:30] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Sorry something AlanBell said to you. Does this happen with other documents?
[10:30] <wh1zz0> deej1976: AlanBell:  Oh you seem to be right about line 30, not sure why line 3 though but all the files I've opened so far have these inconsistencies after line 30
[10:31] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Yes, all other documents
[10:31] <wh1zz0> All documents opened with gedit

[10:35] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Have you tried removing your current gedit configuration?
[10:35] <wh1zz0> The theme?
[10:35] <wh1zz0> Or the default config in preferences
[10:35] <wh1zz0> ?
[10:36] <deej1976> wh1zz0: default config in preferences
[10:36] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Possible the theme as well.
[10:38] <wh1zz0> deej1976:  Yes I have.. when I remove the theme it goes back to the classic
[10:39] <deej1976> wh1zz0: And the documents are correct highlighting?
[10:39] <wh1zz0> deej1976: But I don't like the others, I see better with green on black background
[10:39] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Yea.. the documents highlight correctly without a single error on the others
[10:39] <deej1976> wh1zz0: So it looks theme related, and if you reply the theme?
[10:40] <CaptAnon> can I use ssh to connect to a computer over the internet, and How would I find out how to do this?
[10:40] <wh1zz0> Let me try to reapply
[10:40] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: ssl -l ip
[10:40] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: where -l is the username
[10:40] <CaptAnon> thanks wh1zz0
[10:40] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Still get same error
[10:41] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: ssh -l IP
[10:41] <wh1zz0> not ssl*
[10:41] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: YW
[10:41] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Is it default theme?
[10:41] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Nah, not the default
[10:41] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Have you got a URL for it?
[10:42] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Ever since I've been on natty, that theme has worked and showed up flawlessly.. Yesterday I upgrded to oneiric
[10:42] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Yeah one sec
[10:43] <deej1976> wh1zz0: gedit went from 2.30.4 to 3.2.1
[10:43] <wh1zz0> Owh
[10:43] <wh1zz0> Really?
[10:44] <wh1zz0> So I automatically have a new version of geddit
[10:44] <wh1zz0> Uhmm... might be where the problem lies.. maybe I'd have to play with the highlight mode options a bit
[10:44] <deej1976> wh1zz0: I've got a natty and oneiric and just check the versions
[10:44] <Idsme> anyone can help me with a installing problem oracle calendar? it says : strings: '/lib/libc.so.6': No such file
[10:44] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Or what do you think?
[10:44] <bullgard6> UpdateManager recommends: "Select the filter »Faulty Package" in Synaptic to show the rogue package. Where is the filter »Faulty Package« to be found in Synaptic 0.75.2ubuntu7?
[10:45] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Look theme related, if you got back to where the theme came from it might have an updated version.
[10:45] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Exactly what im checking

[10:46] <CaptAnon> wh1zz0,  Why did you say -l is username?
[10:47] <wh1zz0> -l literally means login
[10:47] <AlanBell> CaptAnon: ssh username@hostname is normally sufficient
[10:47] <Detergentizer> *meant
[10:47] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: e.g ssh -l ip/hostname or the method AlanBell pasted also works
[10:48] <deavid> hi, i have a problem. I installed Ubuntu from Windows a year ago, and seems that it didn't created a partition at all, because i see /dev/loop0 mounted on /. When i installed that, i assigned 30Gb and now i want to resize it... how i can do that?
[10:49] <AlanBell> deavid: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#How_do_I_resize_the_virtual_disks.3F
[10:49] <CaptAnon> I don't get it
[10:49] <bullgard6> deavid: You can resize a partition. What is the name of the partition you want to resize?
[10:49] <AlanBell> CaptAnon: maybe describe the scenario a bit more?
[10:49] <AlanBell> bullgard6: it is wubi, not a partition
[10:50] <deavid> bullgard6: i believe AlanBell spotted the problem. It's a virtual disk. I'm going to follow the guide
[10:50] <CaptAnon> what does the -l wh1zz0  mentioned do?
[10:51] <amcsi_work> hello
[10:51] <CaptAnon> does it just use the same login name I am logged in currently for the ssh
[10:51] <amcsi_work> I booted my ubuntu without a monitor and it works fine for ssh and x and stuff. Now I want to attach a monitor to it, but it doesn't display anything
[10:51] <AlanBell> CaptAnon: by default it uses your current login name, yes
[10:51] <amcsi_work> How can I make it use the monitor by restarting fewer tasks as possible?
[10:52] <CaptAnon> Thanks
[10:52] <AlanBell> chances are you want to change that, which you can do by "ssh -l myname hostname" or "ssh myname@hostname"
[10:52] <wh1zz0> for instance if you want to ssh to a machine with the ip <IP_ADDRESS>  and login or username as root.. you can either do A) ssh root -l root <IP_ADDRESS> OR ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[10:52] <saju_m> issue: replace part of string using 'sed' http://paste.pocoo.org/show/516602/
[10:53] <AlanBell> amcsi_work: sudo service lightdm restart (or gdm if using something before oneiric)

[10:57] <qxt> Any recomendations for a 120GB ssd? Using Ubuntu GNU/Linux 3.1.0-1. SLiM DM, xfce as my DE, Compiz for composting windows manager and Emerald as wm decorator. On a Z68 mobo, SB 2600 cpu with 32 GB RAM.
[10:57] <Gentoo64> qxt: google it
[10:57] <Gentoo64> research them
[10:58] <Gentoo64> i have an ocz vertex 2 which is quite old now still fast. some have better sequentials than randoms.. youll have to look into it
[10:58] <harsh343> is it possible to login in gmail through terminal ubuntu
[10:58] <Gentoo64> harsh343: something like alpine mail
[10:59] <harsh343> Gentoo64, yes ot not ?
[10:59] <harsh343> or*
[10:59] <Gentoo64> yes
[10:59] <iceroot> harsh343: mutt, w3m, lynx
[10:59] <Gentoo64> sorry, thought you meant just read mail
[10:59] <harsh343> iceroot, what is this ?
[11:00] <deper29> Can someone help me? I seem to have removed all of the kernels from my system, and now only have the option of memtest or windows. is it possible to reinstall a kernel from a live cd?
[11:00] <qxt> Gentoo64 lol, I have read everything on the net about IOPS etc. Seems the Sandforce 22xx suck ... for Windows. Just thought I would give Ubuntu a spin. Kind of tired of aliment issues, noop and ext4 not picking up TRIM.
[11:00] <iceroot> harsh343: cli-tools for reading mails/browsing websites
[11:00] <harsh343> iceroot, ok
[11:00] <Gentoo64> qxt: i use noop and ext4, add discard and trim works
[11:01] <iceroot> deper29: should be possible with a live-cd and a later chroot for the system
[11:01] <harsh343> iceroot, so i need to install cli-tools like mutt
[11:01] <CaptAnon> what should happen if I type ssh IP?
[11:01] <Gentoo64> qxt: and sandfoce is one of the best controllers
[11:01] <qxt> Gentoo64 do you use a Sandforce controller? If so any issues
[11:01] <deper29> how would I do that?
[11:01] <deper29> I'm a noob and messed this up :(
[11:01] <Gentoo64> qxt: yes the vertex2 is sandforce and its been flawless
[11:01] <Gentoo64> had it since 09
[11:01] <iceroot> harsh343: mutt is a cli-mailclient
[11:02] <harsh343> ok
[11:02] <iceroot> harsh343: if you want to use it you have to install it "sudo apt-get install mutt"
[11:03] <CaptAnon> wh1zz0,   what should happen if it just but ssh IP?
[11:04] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: Lol.. try it and see
[11:04] <CaptAnon> nothing?
[11:04] <qxt> Gentoo64 looking at a OCZ Vertex 3 Max IOPS SATA III.  Good to hear you dont have issues with your sandforce controller
[11:04] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: It'd connect but will immediately ask you for a password and even if your password is correct it will not log you in
[11:04] <CaptAnon> oh wait I got something? a timeout
[11:05] <Gentoo64> qxt: ive actually read that the vertex 2 is better for randoms than the vertex 3 and its a lot cheaper
[11:05] <CaptAnon> Can I connect to my own IP?
[11:05] <Gentoo64> qxt: i havent researched much since i bought mine though
[11:05] <harsh343> iceroot, some proble occur during installation
[11:05] <harsh343> http://pastebin.com/JxzmfV6g
[11:05] <Gentoo64> qxt: but the vertex drives are definately some of the best rated
[11:05] <CaptAnon> I was using my own IP would that stop it working?
[11:05] <qxt> Gentoo64 the return rate is 4.6% on the OCZ ssd devices =/
[11:06] <Gentoo64> hmm idk :s like i say ive had mine for years and its as fast as when i bought it, ive done secure erase on it way too many times too
[11:06] <qxt> Gentoo64 that does not mean much though since most ppl are not using *nix machines
[11:06] <Gentoo64> windows is no different
[11:07] <Gentoo64> still trims
[11:07] <Gentoo64> just when its idle rather than on the fly afaik
[11:08] <qxt> Gentoo64 I am guessing you are using discard in /etc/fstab
[11:08] <Gentoo64> yeah, discard,noatime
[11:08] <Gentoo64> and noop and ext4
[11:10] <ledzgio> hi to all
[11:10] <ledzgio> anyone can help me?
[11:10] <ledzgio> with a ethernet driver?
[11:11] <Gentoo64> qxt: i update the firmware on my drive every time ones released, sometimes theres stability updates
[11:11] <harsh343> iceroot, there ?
[11:11] <andyou> Hi guys!
[11:11] <Gentoo64> qxt: tbh id go for it theyre good
[11:12] <ledzgio> anyone have problems with atheros 8151 with kernel 3 on ubuntu oneiric?
[11:12] <ledzgio> ethernet card
[11:12] <CaptAnon> Ok just wondering, when people join it pops up somthing like<EMAIL_ADDRESS>if i guessed his password I could get into his computer
[11:13] <iceroot> harsh343: you have software-center or something similar open? if so close it first
[11:13] <iceroot> !details | ledzgio
[11:13] <Gentoo64> ledzgio: i gogoled it and whats the problem, does it work but its slow / cuts out? nto work at all?
[11:14] <ledzgio> ok im going to explain my problem
[11:14] <harsh343> iceroot, not at all
[11:14] <ledzgio> I have a problem with my onboard ethernet card
[11:14] <ledzgio> Atheros AR8152 driver atl1c
[11:14] <qxt> Gentoo64 I might just go for a Sandforce based ssd then. The idea of a MLC NAND seems kind of iffy but the SLC Intels cost way to much atm. Do you really get sequential read speeds close to 500 mb/s ?
[11:15] <ledzgio> on ubuntu 11.10 with kernel 3.0.14
[11:15] <ledzgio> latest kernel
[11:15] <ledzgio> the problem is that when i download lots of data my ethernet card gets disconnected
[11:15] <ledzgio> and I have to restart network-manager service or rmmod module and modprobe it again
[11:15] <ledzgio> its really annoying
[11:15] <ledzgio> i can surf internet
[11:16] <jnwhiteh> If an application has no windows open, there doesn't seem to be anything in the unity dashboard that shows it as being active.. is this intentional? Is there a better way to find out which applications are running?
[11:16] <ledzgio> but if I download with deluge for ecample
[11:16] <Gentoo64> qxt: not on the vertex2, on the vertex3 id guess you do. i get the rated sequential speeds on my drive. dont be put off by mlc, the sandforce drives are very high rated and reliable and the controller is decent. just get one :)
[11:16] <ledzgio> net card gets disconnected after a while
[11:17] <Gentoo64> qxt: the vertex3 has higher sequentials than the vertex2, but worse randoms (if i remember right) ofc with ssd for general use randoms are more improtant
[11:17] <ledzgio> if I download at slow speed its dont happen
[11:17] <ledzgio> if I download fast it happen
[11:17] <ledzgio> s
[11:17] <Gentoo64> qxt: but im not 100% sure on the vertex3s stats
[11:17] <ledzgio> any thoughts?
[11:17] <jnwhiteh> For example, I've got empathy open, but if I have the contacts window closed and no active chat windows, the application still appears to be running.. so I can still get notifications for it. It's quite confusing =/
[11:20] <ledzgio> guys
[11:21] <Gentoo64> ledzgio: have you googled it much?
[11:21] <ledzgio> yes for 2 days
[11:21] <ledzgio> everything
[11:21] <ledzgio> and seems to be a problem for others too
[11:22] <ledzgio> but no sulutions
[11:22] <Gentoo64> hmm
[11:22] <ledzgio> someone have fixed compiling the drivers
[11:22] <Gentoo64> dont look like your in luck then
[11:22] <ledzgio> but I have found drivers just for kernel 2.6.x
[11:22] <Gentoo64> ok, maybe you need to manually install a driver then
[11:22] <ledzgio> and not for 3
[11:22] <Gentoo64> well it might work, i have no idea
[11:22] <ledzgio> i cannot find drivers suitable for kernel 3.x
[11:22] <qxt> Gentoo64 only reason I care at all about sequential speeds is that I do a lot of video editing. Like you point out though IO on smaller data is generally much more important. My 4xF3 HDD still has a 12ms crappy seek time. The ssd at 0.1 ms looks awesome.
[11:23] <Gentoo64> qxt: if its your first ssd youll be amazed :)
[11:23] <Gentoo64> qxt: do what i do, use ssd for general os, and a big hdd(s) for big files / sequentials
[11:24] <Gentoo64> wear and tear isnt much of an issue on modern ssds
[11:24] <Gentoo64> but still pointless if you have hdds with good speed for big files
[11:24] <Braden`> Whenever I type:  lightdm
[11:25] <Gentoo64> qxt: i use the samsung f3 as well (only 1 though)_
[11:25] <Braden`> Whenever I type:  lightdm  --  It tells me, "Can't open display!"
[11:25] <qxt> Gentoo64 yup my first. Been using RAID 0 with 4 HDDs for a while. Well looks like I run out and pick up that OCZ that can use the SATAIII.
[11:25] <Braden`> But startx runs just fine
[11:25] <Braden`> How do I fix this error?
[11:26] <Gentoo64> qxt: go for it. the ocz forums sometimes have some useful info about the technical stuff with the drives, basically saying theyre good lol
[11:26] <secretsneeper> can someone who knows backtrack mssg me
[11:26] <Stanley00> Braden`: try "DISPLAY=:0 lightdm"
[11:26] <Gentoo64> secretsneeper: join #backtrack-linux
[11:26] <qxt> Gentoo64 take it the bad stuff get the ban hammer =)
[11:26] <Gentoo64> lol nah
[11:27] <secretsneeper> i know
[11:27] <secretsneeper> they suck
[11:27] <Gentoo64> secretsneeper: google then, bT isnt supported here
[11:27] <secretsneeper> all asleep and expect me to have fell out of the womb with linux command knowledge
[11:27] <Gentoo64> BT has a lot of docs and guides
[11:27] <Braden`> Stanley00:  It just takes me back to the screen that says "Can't open display!"   I have to then press ctrl+f1 to get back to console
[11:27] <secretsneeper> gotcha
[11:28] <qxt> secretsneeper what do you need to know. Did a lot of dev work on BT back in 2009
[11:28] <secretsneeper> just interested in metasploit
[11:28] <secretsneeper> would like it explained if ur interested
[11:28] <njoel> hi everyone, could anyone tell me how to install Dnsgraph in Ubuntu?? thanks
[11:28] <Daemon_Byte> I have a freshly installed ubuntu box with an nvidia 210 graphics card installed. I am trying to get twinview to work so I can use 2 monitors however I keep hitting a problem. I open up the nvidia config panel, enable the second monitor and they both come up. Then the menu across the top and the bar down the left vanish and I am unable to do anything.
[11:29] <Stanley00> Braden`: are you sure you startx already, looks like it didnt start
[11:30] <Stanley00> Braden`: did Ctrl+Alt+F7 show up a graphical screen?
[11:30] <qxt> secretsneeper The metasploit framework is god sent.  I want to change file association to MS Office for docx, pptx etc
[11:31] <Gentoo64> theres a basic guide somewhere on metasploit
[11:31] <jamil_1> suggestions ?
[11:32] <secretsneeper> --qxt possibility of using metasploit against say a school server
[11:32] <secretsneeper> built in exploits for servers?
[11:32] <Braden`> Stanley00:  No, I haven't run startx yet.  Usually it works though.  I am wanting to fix it so lightdm will start when I reboot instead of outputing "Can't open display!"
[11:33] <Daemon_Byte> anyone know how to help me with this screen issue? I would hate to have to put windows on it but it needs to be useable by the end of the day
[11:34] <Stanley00> Braden`: hmm I dont know much about this kind of problem, how did you install your system?
[11:35] <Braden`> Normal install
[11:35] <Braden`> but
[11:35] <Braden`> This problem happened when I upgraded from 10.04 to 10.11
[11:35] <Braden`> Interestingly gdm works
[11:37] <Stanley00> Braden`: hmm, so upgrade may cause the problem here, I think you should install 11.10 freshly...
[11:38] <Stanley00> !clone | Braden`
[11:39] <html> upgrading causes  alot of problems  one way or the other
[11:40] <Braden`> Well
[11:40] <Braden`> gdm does the job
[11:41] <Braden`> even if it is obsolete
[11:42] <html> its like a famous old car,,, but if we fixed it up in the first place we would be in this mess
[11:44] <VIPER-II> Html: i think that if users are 'gratefull' enough for the effort that somebody did to create a car in the first place, programmers shouldn't be afraid of consequences of bringing out patches and fixes.
[11:44] <VIPER-II> Programmers biggest headaches are spoiled users.
[11:44] <VIPER-II> <-- Programmer having a bad day!
[11:45] <html> agreed, but i like to make it a better one  and future proof it,,, i love this old thing ,,,  and it does the job very well....
[11:46] <Jonii> okay, 11.10 is full of bugs
[11:47] <html> first -time windows user (family ) thinks its windows (XP)  if setup right
[11:47] <Jonii> anyone know if i can somehow restart unity and stuff like that?
[11:47] <html> Jonii,  i have been trying to tell u that
[11:47] <Braden`> I've not encountered many bugs
[11:47] <Braden`> Other than the display manager issue
[11:47] <njoel> braden can you please help me with how i can Dnsgraph is installed in Ubuntu?
[11:48] <html> well if you hardware is fairly new the fine,,
[11:48] <Braden`> Probably use apt-get
[11:48] <Jonii> html: when? sorry, i've missed that
[11:48] <z3bra_> .org
[11:48] <html> Jonii,  sorry i thuoght u were some one else
[11:49] <Jonii> okay, so i should probably use some other distro if i want something that works?
[11:49] <Jonii> debian, maybe?
[11:49] <html> Jonii,   but still 10.10 and 10.04 is very well know , documented and can ask just about anyone how to find something without a bug stoping you
[11:50] <Braden`> Someone is trolling
[11:50] <Dmitry> ololo
[11:50] <html> Jonii,  no i not
[11:51] <html> its slow it here
[11:51] <Jonii> anyway, how do i get unity running again?

[11:52] <secretsneeper> ?
[11:52] <secretsneeper> ?
[11:52] <deej1976> Jonii: What are you currently in?
[11:54] <html> secretsneeper,  huh? what do you need?
[11:54] <raven> why does grub2 always install itself to the live/install-system (usb-drive) instead of to the destination system?
[11:55] <html> maybe chainloading?
[11:55] <Jonii> deej1976: something that resembles broken down unity
[11:56] <deej1976> Jonii: So you want to reset to defaults?
[11:56] <Jonii> cant close windows, cant change focus from this window, cant do anything besides talking here
[11:57] <html> u could be stuck the other way around
[11:57] <deej1976> Jonii: And if you reboot?

[12:44] <shomon> I used pendrivelinux kollapse

[12:44] <shomon> not sure what the more linuxey command is for that.. maybe dd

[12:47] <biopyte> Is there a way to display Active-X content in Firefox?
[12:47] <biopyte> Any plugins, packages ...?
[12:48] <Pici> biopyte: No.  You *might* be able to do it under WINE. But otherwise you'd need a virtual machine running windows.
[12:49] <Ryukoji> biopyte:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=830559 your question here
[12:49] <biopyte> Pici, ok
[12:49] <ThSenior> this is what i get when running from terminalÈ http://pastebin.com/kGarw59V
[12:50] <biopyte> even running IE in wine is no guarantee, i guess.
[12:51] <theadmin> Pici, biopyte: IIRC, there's a Firefox plugin which handles limited ActiveX
[12:51] <theadmin> Don't remember the name
[12:51] <Pici> theadmin: On Linux?
[12:52] <theadmin> Pici: I do remember having that for whatever reason around a year ago, and since back then I'd be running Ubuntu... yes
[12:52] <Pici> theadmin: Interesting.
[12:52] <BluesKaj> Hey all
[12:52] <theadmin> Pici: Might be completely wrong though, sometimes I remember things which I, as it ends up, never have done...
[12:53] <Guest14859> Stanley00: ok, i'll try

[12:55] <theadmin> biopyte: Maybe it's no longer developed, or maybe my memory is fuzzy
[12:56] <theadmin> biopyte: Likely the second one
[12:56] <biopyte> probably
[12:57] <biopyte> all my googling leads to nowhere ... virtual setup is probaly the only  solution
[12:57] <meco> What's a simple image editor included with 11.04?
[12:57] <theadmin> meco: I think they don't include any by default. You can install GIMP or mtpaint or something like that though from the repos
[12:57] <barraponto> i have messed my mysql configurations, can i revert it to defaults?
[12:58] <Ryukoji> sudo apt-get install gimp :P

[12:59] <dr_willis> Milossh:  mouse down to the bottom right. the little panel thing should appear
[12:59] <dr_willis> Milossh:  unless you are using unity. :)
[12:59] <Milossh> bottom right is my screen switcher
[12:59] <meco> geirha: I'm using openbox so I don't have any shoppingbags readily available

[13:00] <Milossh> dr_willis, yep, gnome 3, or gnome-shell
[13:00] <geirha> meco: Ah, well "Ubuntu Software Center" should be in the menus somewhere
[13:00] <dr_willis> Milossh:  err.. the gnome classic is not the same as gnome-3
[13:00] <meco> geirha: I'm trying out gimp now
[13:00] <dr_willis> I recall gnome-3/gnome-shell having some panel at the bottom with notification icons

[13:15] <ThSenior> how can i change to 16bit color?
[13:16] <ejv> you try xorg.conf?
[13:16] <ThSenior> cant find this file...
[13:16] <ejv> /etc/X11/ ?
[13:16] <dr_willis> you can make one.. but why do you need to change to 16bit color?
[13:17] <MeQuerSat> xorg.conf can be found in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:17] <ThSenior> its full in google about it but last ubuntu seems dont have it
[13:17] <ThSenior> nope. there isnt
[13:17] <ejv> that's because this is the matrix
[13:17] <dr_willis> The latest versions of X for the last 2-4 releases of ubuntu have not needed a xorg.conf by default.
[13:17] <ejv> there is no xorg.conf, realize the truth.
[13:17] <dr_willis> X auto configures for the most part.
[13:17] <Milos_SD> Hi
[13:17] <osse> I want to change the default keyboard mapping for my language. But not very much. I just want to map { and } to some other keys. What's the best way of doing this?
[13:18] <ThSenior> and how can i change it to 16 bit ?
[13:18] <ThSenior> now seems to be 24bit
[13:18] <Milos_SD> Is it safe to change root reserved % for a partition that is almost full (10 GB free) ?
[13:18] <dr_willis> ThSenior:  why do you need to change to 16bit?
[13:18] <dr_willis> Milos_SD:  You going to fill it up? :)
[13:19] <ThSenior> dr_willis i think it will be a little bit faster, its really slow and uses a lot of cpu
[13:19] <dr_willis> Milos_SD:  if you change it with tune2fs. im not sure the change takes effect untill you reboot/remount the fs.
[13:19] <Milos_SD> dr_willis, don't know, but it is not root partition, only data
[13:19] <ejv> color depth is slowing down your machine? now that's just odd...
[13:19] <dr_willis> ejv:  or its a very very old box..
[13:19] <ejv> prehistoric!
[13:19] <ThSenior> slow and 3 years old laptop
[13:19] <ejv> change DefaultDepth in xorg.conf is what i would do ThSenior
[13:20] <ThSenior> I know that on a P4 CPUs it helped
[13:20] <dr_willis> whats the system specs exactly?
[13:20] <ejv> or replace the laptop... they are dirt cheap on newegg...
[13:21] <ThSenior> 1.9Ghz dual core i think
[13:21] <ThSenior> ejv where can i find DefaultDepth?
[13:21] <ejv> i have an old intel centrino laptop, 7 years old, color depth is fine on it... integrated intel graphics chipset
[13:21] <ejv> ThSenior: in xorg.conf of course
[13:21] <dr_willis> !xorg
[13:22] <ThSenior> ejv as I said i dont have this file...
[13:22] <dr_willis> you can generate a xorg.conf somehow....
[13:22] <ThSenior> xorg.conf does not exist
[13:22] <dr_willis> !xorgconf
[13:22] <dr_willis> I doubt if going to 16bit will help much
[13:23] <ejv> the only reason my laptop works is because ubuntu exists
[13:23] <ThSenior> is 1GB of RAM enough for internet surfing È
[13:23] <ejv> windows on it is horror, mine has 512, 1G is plenty
[13:24] <ThSenior> well its really slow firefox start time or chromium
[13:24] <ThSenior> other apps too like wine...
[13:25] <dr_willis> ThSenior:  you may want to try Lubuntu or some other lighter desktop.
[13:25] <ejv> i know it's apples and oranges, but my 7 yr old laptop operates fine with stock ubuntu, under 512mb of ram, is there something else wrong? dying hard disk?
[13:26] <conntrack> hmm
[13:26] <Milos_SD> dr_willis, it works without a problem ... I didn't even had to remount the partition :D
[13:26] <ThSenior> ejv HD is always slow but as I see it uses a lot of HD
[13:26] <Milos_SD> dr_willis, I set it to 1% just to be sure :)
[13:27] <ThSenior> also CPU usage is too much on animated websites
[13:28] <ejv> only so much we can help you with, with such limited information
[13:28] <dr_willis> ive had lower end systems work fine. :)
[13:28] <dr_willis> could be a video card/driver bottleneck
[13:29] <ThSenior> i would like to try with 16 bit color to see the difference on web surf
[13:29] <dr_willis> ThSenior:  whats your video card?
[13:30] <ThSenior> how can i check it È
[13:30] <ThSenior> ?
[13:30] <RaTTuS|BIG> lshw -class display | pastebinit
[13:30] <ejv> lspci -k might do it or lshw
[13:30] <ejv> blast! RaTTuS|BIG is too fast!

[13:35] <ejv> my 7 year old laptop can do 720p, if the browser is the *only* application open; otherwise, keep it at 360 or 480p
[13:35] <ThSenior> maybe reducing the resolution will help È
[13:35] <ThSenior> ?
[13:35] <dr_willis> then ive seen quad core machines get boggged down by poor flash preformance...
[13:35] <ejv> if you had a sandy bridge intel HD chipset, i'd be more confident in hd playback ability
[13:36] <ejv> controlling for flash-fail, youtube html5 :)
[13:36] <ejv> but yes, flash is the devil, certainly
[13:36] <insmod> since you are on it --- any solution yet for a dual monitor to view youtube full screen? other then saving the file -- or conversion add-on etc.
[13:37] <ejv> i have never tried
[13:37] <dr_willis> insmod:  it used to work for me.. havent tried it lately.
[13:37] <dr_willis> no dual monitor setups here at this timne
[13:37] <dr_willis> Unity does have known issues with multi monitor setups
[13:38] <ejv> the last time i used dual screens, was at my previous job, using fedora core 9, nvidia twinview i think is what it was called; worked ok, a bit buggy
[13:38] <insmod> dr_willis: it did as well but not for a while -- works for all but youtube
[13:38] <ThSenior> ok, i suppose the HD is too slow for ubuntu
[13:38] <dr_willis> you can set youtube to use html5 :)
[13:38] <ejv> yup
[13:38] <ThSenior> i dont understand why it touch it so much
[13:38] <dr_willis> Depends on how HD the  video is...
[13:39] <insmod> dr_willis: deian and linuxfromscratch
[13:39] <dr_willis> :) and the codec.. and res.. and... so on...
[13:39] <ejv> wooooooosh
[13:39] <ThSenior> i mean hard drive
[13:39]  * ejv makes a arm motion above the head
[13:39] <ejv> :D
[13:39] <ThSenior> videos playing good
[13:39] <dr_willis> then how are you comming to the conclusion the 'hd is too slow...'
[13:39] <ThSenior> anyway i got a problem with kmail and saving passwords...
[13:39] <ThSenior> well i installed kwallet manager and cant start it...
[13:39] <ejv> dr_willis: youtube.com/html5, you opt-in and i think it stores a cookie to remember that you prefer html5 playback
[13:40] <CrazyThinker> What is the best place to store secret notes in ubuntu?
[13:40] <dr_willis> ejv:  yea. not all videos are in html5 yet...
[13:40] <CrazyThinker> Does tomboy provide an encryption support?
[13:40] <ejv> dr_willis: yea it'll try to give you html5, and if not, it'll fall back to the flash (or it *should*)

I am stuck at this part: "Remember to substitute ‘hd0′ with the drive on which your MBR is installed." My question ius how to find out what drive my MBR is installed on ?
[13:52] <theadmin> bobweaver: Well, which drive is Ubuntu installed on?
[13:53] <theadmin> bobweaver: /dev/sda? /dev/sdb?
[13:53] <bobweaver> sda
[13:53] <dr_willis> bobweaver:  what hd are you booting now?  hd0=sda
[13:53] <theadmin> bobweaver: That would be hd0.
[13:53] <bobweaver> sweet guys thanks

[14:01] <Guillem> "Documents" folder is tagged with a document icon in Nautilus. Where is such information stored?
[14:02] <Guillem> Previous Nautilus had the "emblems" stuff which now is missing...
[14:03] <Stanley00> Guillem: I think they are in ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
[14:03] <gwb> HI -- in 11.10, grub 1, in /boot/grub/menu.lst, are the kopt= parameters cumulative?  That is, if I have kopt=foo and kopt_3_0_0=bar, will update-grub build options "foo bar" for 3.0.0 kernels?
[14:04] <ThinkT510> gwb: why are you using grub1 on 11.10?
[14:04] <dr_willis> ThinkT510:  :)
[14:04] <Guillem> Stanley00, that's right. Thank you very much
[14:05] <Stanley00> Guillem: np ;)
[14:05] <raven> 11.10 winff - where are the mp4/h264 templates?
[14:05] <dr_willis> gwb:  try it and see? check the grub lines/boot options/menu.lst after you rereun update-grub.
[14:05] <gwb> ThinkT510: I've got a system continually in use for more than 5 years that has been kept up-to-date with Ubuntu's releases
[14:06] <dr_willis> raven:  Hmm..  there are some addatinal  profiles you can get from their web site. the android profile. makes mp4's i use it all the time.
[14:06] <gwb> dr_willis: OK -- I'll post the result here
[14:06] <Guillem> Also, In previous versions I could drag folders at "places" to keep book-marks. This seems not to be possible any more.
[14:06] <dr_willis> 5 yrs of updates.. im spurised it boots.. :)
[14:07] <ThinkT510> gwb: cool, glad to see the upgrade process works for you
[14:07] <Guillem> Oh, there is a Bookmarks cathegory
[14:07] <Guillem> now I  see it. Sorry for the noise
[14:11] <raven> dr_willis, android profile != quality i think?
[14:11] <dr_willis> raven:  i am playing them on my android.. so never noticed..
[14:12] <dr_willis> raven:  make your own profile i guess..
[14:12] <dr_willis> raven:  you may want to check out 'arista' also. it has similer function as winff.
[14:13] <omid> when i'm about to install propritary ATI drivers it says : Sorry, installation of this driver failed.Please have a look at the log file for details: /var/log/jockey.log. here is the output of that file : http://paste.kde.org/155252/93622132/
[14:15] <makara> what to use for QQ now that pidgin doesn't support?
[14:15] <renemoraes> Hello there, I'm in need to have some help with monitor configure in ubuntu... i dont know if its the best channel to do it.. but if someone could help me i would appreciate that
[14:15] <makara> renemoraes: just ask your q please
[14:16] <renemoraes> I'm trying to configure an external monitor, but after doing all settings on "Monitor" section, without touching, without nothing, the system mirror the two monitors and turn the laptop monitor on again
[14:17] <renemoraes> I want to disable this automatic output monitor detection
[14:17] <dr_willis> renemoraes:  whats your video chipset?
[14:18] <renemoraes> I have an intel integrated and amd radeon hd 6470M but the last one is disabled
[14:18] <dr_willis> One of those new Dual GPU laptops?
[14:19] <renemoraes> yes
[14:19] <renemoraes> Dell Inspiron 15R
[14:19] <gulzar> what are those apps called which are not made in gtk or qt and so look same in any DE?
[14:19] <urthmove1> x11 ?
[14:20] <makara> gulzar: swing
[14:20] <dr_willis> apps using the X11 libs perhaps. is the term ive often seen
[14:20] <ThinkT510> gulzar: wxwidgits?
[14:20] <SoWhat> Hello! Is there a sound mixer for ubuntu where we can adjust sound level for different apps like in Windows 7?
[14:20] <omid> when i'm about to install propritary ATI drivers it says : Sorry, installation of this driver failed.Please have a look at the log file for details: /var/log/jockey.log. here is the output of that file : http://paste.kde.org/155252/93622132/
[14:20] <dr_willis> equally ugly in all. :)
[14:20] <theadmin> gulzar: Um, qt apps can pretty much look the same anywhere, same for gtk... There's a TON of desktop-independent GUI toolkits, actually, and Gtk and Qt aren't desktop-dependent, either.
[14:20] <makara> gulzar: could be anything. give example app
[14:20] <gulzar> makra : ThinkT510 : theadmin : like Chromium
[14:20] <theadmin> gulzar: Chromium uses GTK.
[14:21] <renemoraes> dr_willis: do you know how can i just turn off this automatic detection... then i could configure using xrandr by terminal
[14:21] <dr_willis> renemoraes:  given the issuves ive seen with those new things.. you are lucky it even works. :)
[14:21] <gulzar> makra : ThinkT510 : theadmin : I don't know much but there should be a category which does not depend on any toolkit like gtk or qt and hence act same in any DE
[14:21] <dr_willis> renemoraes:  you did try the laptops fn-XX keys? :)
[14:21] <gulzar> makra : ThinkT510 : theadmin : i don't have much info on these apps so asking here
[14:21] <renemoraes> dr_willis: hahahah yeah.. perhaps u are right
[14:22] <theadmin> gulzar: gtk and qt are -- right -- toolkits. They do not depend on desktop environments.
[14:22] <is_null> hi all, is there any way to move the dock from the left screen edge to the right screen edge
[14:22] <makara> gulzar: gotta depend on something
[14:22] <renemoraes> I've tryied... its not working
[14:22] <theadmin> gulzar: And act the same anywhere, indeed. Icons may change due to DE's theme settings allright
[14:22]  * conntrack shrugs
[14:22] <is_null> cause you know, i read from left to right :)
[14:22] <dr_willis> is_null:  nope. but theres hacks to move it to the bottom.
[14:22] <makara> gulzar: web-apps your only option
[14:22] <is_null> dr_willis: which ?
[14:23] <dr_willis> is_null:  mentioned on the webupd8 blog site.  i dont recall the name.
[14:23] <is_null> or maybe there is a way to make it always visible ?
[14:23] <renemoraes> dr_willis: i just cant understand, why it changes the output... with the right resolution.. but after anything it just moves back to laptop output
[14:23] <gulzar> theadmin: eg; basket or dolphin looks ygly in gnome or xfce if not configured propperly.. and so is the case with nautilus and gnote in kde. But there must be a category whch behaves same on both environments withoutmuch dependencies
[14:23] <dr_willis> is_null:  always visible = ccsm tool, unity plugin setting.
[14:23] <is_null> cool, thanks
[14:23] <gulzar> makara: yes they should but with less dependencies
[14:23] <dr_willis> is_null:  webupd8 blog site has other unity tweaks also
[14:23] <theadmin> gulzar: Well, wxwidgets and atk provide something like that...
[14:23] <gulzar> theadmin: I don't know how to put my question. Lets say no gtk or qt or java apps. Any other category?
[14:24] <gulzar> makra: web apps ... Ok
[14:24] <theadmin> gulzar: I just gave you two
[14:24] <is_null> thanks dr_willis
[14:24] <makara> gulzar: more work for developers for not much pay off. why change a winning formula? reinvent the wheel? "DRY"
[14:24] <schnuffle> Is there a way to print the partition table used by the kernel instead the one written on the harddisk? I wiped the wrong partition table and would like to restore it as the kernel still uses the old one
[14:24] <is_null> well i can't say i don't wish it was as customizable as suckless dwm
[14:24] <gulzar> theadmin: wxwidgets ... I will look at htem
[14:25] <udonthavetoknow> hey, can someone of u help me out? i'm running 11.10 and there's no option like "dim screen when it's on battery power" in power settings
[14:26] <gulzar> makara: its about that I am using openbox with tint2. And so qt apps and gtk apps are not behaving properly.. tried various measures so wanted something which is netiher qt nor gtk
[14:26] <renemoraes> dr_willis: thank you anyway! :)
[14:27] <SoWhat> does anybody know a sound mixer for ubuntu where we can adjust sound level for different apps like in Windows 7?
[14:27] <dr_willis> gulzar:  many kde/gnome apps have settings/themes tomake them look more normal. and  both have a 'settings' back end that may get them to work a little nicer.
[14:27] <is_null> while i'm at it, a couple of questions about the terminal: how to 0) make "click on a link" to open it in a browser and (currently: i can click the link but it doesn't open anywhere) 1) how to make that if i paste 2 lines of shell code it will do the second line when the first one finishes (currently: finishes first line and does nothing)
[14:27] <dr_willis> SoWhat:  pavcontrol perhaps. or some of the other pa* tools
[14:27] <makara> SoWhat: I'm on 11.04 and it allows individual control over apps
[14:28] <dr_willis> makara:  thats what i was thinking also. :) but i rarely do sound on my linux box
[14:28] <SoWhat> makara: I am on 11.10, can you tell me how?
[14:28] <atdiehm> if I want to try out precise on my new lappy, should I pull down alpha1, or the daily....
[14:28] <gulzar> dr_willis: qt apps are right but gtk2 and gtk3 is not mixing well... either of them give toruble. Pcmanfm and xarchiever etc. are looking good.
[14:28] <Pici> atdiehm: You'll want to ask in #ubuntu+1 for that.
[14:29] <atdiehm> whoops, sorry
[14:29] <dr_willis> gulzar:  for gtk2. i think theres some special themes that are gtk2+3.. but i rarely worry about them.
[14:29] <makara> SoWhat: problem. Unity. On gnome 2 I click the volume button > sound preferences > applications tab
[14:30] <SoWhat> makara, I guess I don't have such option in Unity
[14:30] <theadmin> gulzar: pcmanfm is gtk-based... You're messing things. Yes, that's right, apps that are written for GNOME don't mix with other destkops, but it ain't really got anything to do with gtk
[14:30] <makara> SoWhat: sure its there somewhere
[14:30] <gulzar> dr_willis: yes there is adwaita but it is not working iwth openbox.. I am trying to do this from past 2 weeks and finally wanted something other than gtk and qt I think CLI will be a good opriton
[14:30] <udonthavetoknow> hey, i'm missing an option like "dim screen when it's on battery power", i'm running 11.10. i've checked system setting > power but there are only options like "suspend when inactive for:", etc.
[14:30] <makara> SoWhat: just gotta find the dang thing
[14:31] <theadmin> udonthavetoknow: Maybe your battery isn't being detected, is laptop-mode-tools installed?
[14:31] <is_null> dr_willis: the other themes from the blog look good but come on, 30 dependencies for a theme ? i'm not taking this risk
[14:31] <tjiggi_fo> is_null, put && between the two lines
[14:31] <udonthavetoknow> theadmin: probably not, i've installed ubuntu 2 days ago. thanks for helping me out :)
[14:31] <gulzar> theadmin: i will go for CLI :)
[14:32] <dr_willis> is_null:  do without then.. dosent matter to me...
[14:32] <dr_willis> ;)
[14:33]  * dr_willis goes back to using jwm
[14:33] <is_null> tjiggi_fo: is it possible to hack the clipboard so that it processes s/\n/&&/ before pasting in the terminal ?
[14:34] <dean_> does anyone know how to use my headphones while using jack? I don't see anything for it in the connections
[14:35] <bullgard6> UpdateManager recommends: "Select the filter »Faulty Package" in Synaptic to show the rogue package. Where is the filter »Faulty Package« to be found in Synaptic 0.75.2ubuntu7?
[14:35] <is_null> tjiggi_fo: that's not going to work well with the history feature of my cli shell thought ... particularely if i want to re-run a single pasted line with ctrl+r
[14:35] <dr_willis> bullgard6:  bottom left buttons perhaps?
[14:36] <is_null> dr_willis: "Paullo, the Unity Bottom Launcher developer, has fixed the most important bugs (like the unmaximized Dash design, drag'n'drop items from Dash to the launcher, etc.), created a stand-alone Unity plugin plugin called "Ubuntu Unity Plugin Rotated" and uploaded it to a PPA so it's easier to stay up to date with newer versions" that might work to move unity launcher
[14:37] <bullgard6> dr_willis: I only found there somthing similar.
[14:37] <bullgard6> +e
[14:41] <CaptainKnots> am I able to dd a ubuntu 11.10 iso to a flash drive in another distro  to get a working installer flash drive?
[14:43] <iceroot> CaptainKnots: in another distro?
[14:43] <MonkeyDust> CaptainKnots  guess you have to try to find out
[14:44] <dr_willis> is_null:  never tried it..dont plan on trying it. :)
[14:44] <dr_willis> CaptainKnots:  it should work. i dd'd one from windows to a flash :)
[14:44] <iceroot> CaptainKnots: the iso from 11.10 can be copied with dd, ubuntu-releases before 11.10 are not working with that method
[14:45] <SoWhat> does anybody know how to control sound level on different apps in Unity?
[14:45] <MeQuerSat> SoWhat, open "Sound"
[14:45] <MeQuerSat> go to the last tab
[14:46] <SoWhat> MeQuerSat: here is my last tab http://ubuntuone.com/5de7BDOPM0NDtkGMQHt1mc
[14:46] <lamah_> where is apt.conf
[14:46] <dr_willis> lamah_:  try 'locate apt.conf'
[14:46] <lamah_> and nothing
[14:46] <MeQuerSat> SoWhat, mine too: if you start other apps, more will show up in that list
[14:47] <dr_willis> sudo updatedb , then try it.
[14:47] <lamah_> again nothing
[14:47] <dr_willis>  your updatedb should take some time to run......
[14:47] <SoWhat> MeQuerSat: How about firefox? :)
[14:47] <lamah_> dr_willis: i have tried that
[14:47] <dr_willis>  and locate apt.conf   finds about a dozen hits here.
[14:47] <pangolin> /etc/apt/apt.conf.d
[14:47] <dr_willis>  /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/apt.conf
[14:47] <SoWhat> MeQuerSat: It doesnt appear there?
[14:48] <MeQuerSat> SoWhat, firefox is already in that picture...
[14:48] <MeQuerSat> plugin-container is the program that handles Flash content from firefox
[14:48] <dr_willis> man 5 apt.conf
[14:48] <SoWhat> MeQuerSat: thanks! :D
[14:48] <MeQuerSat> :)
[14:48] <lamah_> dr_willis: yes is there only a example in doc dir but one is there also on system
[14:48] <dr_willis> lamah_:  theres none here on this sytem..
[14:48] <dr_willis> other then that example.
[14:49] <lamah_> dr_willis: yes that i mean
[14:49] <lamah_> dr_willis: i got error on apt-get
[14:49] <dr_willis> if it exists.. it would be in /etc/apt/
[14:49] <lamah_> ok
[14:49] <lamah_> dr_willis: E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'libgstreamer0.10-0'. Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2)
[14:50] <lamah_> who can help what is that
[14:50] <lamah_> E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'libgstreamer0.10-0'. Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2)
[14:51] <lamah_> on apt-get install gnome
[14:51] <dr_willis> normally you would install 'ubuntu-desktop'  not just 'gnome'
[14:51] <deej1976> lamah_: Have you added any other ppa's
[14:51] <lamah_> deej1976: what is a ppa
[14:51] <deej1976> !ppa
[14:51] <dr_willis> man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure     might give some info. :)
[14:52] <lamah_> deej1976: yes
[14:52] <syed> hi
[14:52] <dr_willis> 'man 5 apt.conf'   to see the man pages. search for 'Immediate-Configure'   - ive never heard of the error..
[14:52] <syed> friends i am new for ubuntu studio
[14:53] <syed> now i try to install .deb packages in ubuntustudio 11.10
[14:53] <deej1976> lamah_: Could be a conflict from one of them, or as dr_willis say "man 5 apt.conf".
[14:53] <pangolin> !away > ericm-Zzz
[14:53] <sabayonuser> JFS by default, supports utf-8??? or should fstab iocharset=utf-8?
[14:53] <lamah_> deej1976: yes but i can't understand english
[14:53] <syed> but i cant install its just extract the package how can i install this?
[14:54] <dr_willis> I understand english.. but dont understand what man 5 apt.conf is saying about Immediate-Configure, its a flag that defaults to on... so  how did you turn it off.. :) or is it just a fluke...
[14:54] <dr_willis> and the error messatge is not actually related to the actual problem
[14:54] <dr_willis> when in doubt. clean up your sources.list and other listings, disble ppa's , update, upgrade, try again.
[14:54] <deej1976> lamah_: Which ppa's have you added?
[14:54] <syed> friends i am new for ubuntu studio now i try to install .deb packages in ubuntustudio 11.10 but i cant install.. its only just extract the package, how can i install this?
[14:55] <lamah_> deej1976: i have tried gnome packages archives
[14:55] <lamah_> deej1976: many of them but they are removed i think
[14:55] <dr_willis> syed:  use terminal perhaps. 'sudo dpkg -i foo.deb' or 'sudo gdebi foo.deb'
[14:55] <syed> k friend s foo means package name?
[14:55] <deej1976> lamah_: which version of ubuntu are you running ?
[14:56] <lamah_> deej1976: 11.10
[14:56] <_Possum> im trying to mount a windows ahre , when i do it manualy it always restrict normal users to write/modify, but when gnome is accessing the windows share through the network, it sets it up with the right permissions, what am i doing wrong
[14:56] <_Possum> and how do i make sure i can mount it manualy with the right permissions
[14:56] <schnuffle> okay, apparently nobody really knows how to dump the kernel partition table for a device. Maybe somebody knows if there's a channel where I could ask?
[14:56] <lamah_> deej1976: how to install gnome?
[14:56] <deej1976> lamah_: Are you trying to run old gnome2?
[14:56] <deej1976> !notunity | lamah_
[14:57] <lamah_> no gnome3
[14:57] <SoWhat> can you tell me, why Share, Synchronise, Stop publishing and Copy public link  choices are disabled in Ubuntu One folder?
[14:57] <deej1976> !notunity > lamah_
[14:58] <ThinkT510> !gnome2 | lamah_
[14:58] <deej1976> ThinkT510: He said gnome3
[14:58] <ThinkT510> deej1976: he said no gnome3
[14:58] <MeQuerSat> I <3 Gnome Shell
[14:59] <snail> hai
[14:59] <deej1976> ThinkT510: I said are y using trying gnome2, he said NO gnome3.
[14:59] <snail> hai miranda ?
[14:59] <spin_> list
[14:59] <spin_> LIST
[14:59] <ThinkT510> deej1976: that is my point, he said no gnome3, so he doesn't want gnome3
[15:00] <ThinkT510> deej1976: ah, sorry, just clicked
[15:00]  * dr_willis thinks we need clarification
[15:00] <ThinkT510> deej1976: slow brain day :)
[15:01]  * deej1976 His still possible got a problem with extra PPA's
[15:04] <snail> me to
[15:05] <faLUCE> hi. I need to create a custom distro, ubuntu based, with some installed packages and some programs compiled from scratch. Which tool can I use? ubuntu-customization-kit doesn't seem to customize the distro with programs installed from source. I tried "customizer" too, but it doesn't seem to work well. I tried remastersys and neither this one works well. Is there a GOOD program for doing that?
[15:06] <auronandace> !remaster | faLUCE
[15:06] <faLUCE> auronandace: this doesn't answer. read again my question

[15:09] <faLUCE> deej1976: this is a command line program. It's very obscure. Isn't there something easier?
[15:10] <deej1976> faLUCE: Have you looked at the links from !remaster
[15:10] <faLUCE> deej1976: which links?
[15:10] <Rotham> hey.. ubuntu server question:  how can I figure out wtf is using all of my memory?

[15:12] <researcher123> I am on 32 bit system can it be upgraded to 64 bit?
[15:13] <Tm_T> researcher123: by reinstalling
[15:13] <snail> assalamualaikum
[15:13] <OerHeks> researcher123, yes, with re-install, not by upgrade
[15:13] <somsip> researcher123: I found a site that said it was possibly, but so complicated it wasn't worthwhile. I built 64 bit on a separate partition, then slowly migrated over
[15:13] <researcher123> Tm_T: ok
[15:13] <Rotham> wow.. jpds:  that is an incredibly helpful page.
[15:13] <TTest> How can I kill the gwibber process under oneiric? Sudo killall -9 gwibber doesnt work
[15:14] <researcher123> somsip: I wish not to disturb the 32 bit instillation also
[15:14] <somsip> researcher123: same with me, which is why I installed 64 from minimal install CD to a different partition/drive
[15:14] <OerHeks> TTest, use 'top' to determinate the PID, then killall -9 <pid>
[15:15] <researcher123> if I install 64 bit system by replacing the 32 bit will the earlier applications work?
[15:15] <TTest> OerHeks: that doesnt work either, its driving me crazy that I cant disable gwibber
[15:16] <somsip> researcher123: I reinstalled everything using 64 bit apps (except for some multilins like Skype) and dual booted for a few weeks until I was happy it was stable
[15:16] <scarleo> I'm trying to mount an encrypted /home partition from another Ubuntu install with sudo ecryptfs-mount-private but it fails and tell me: http://pastie.org/2969775
[15:16] <researcher123> somsip: is 64 bit know for something better over 32 bit?
[15:17] <somsip> researcher123: not sure what you mean
[15:17] <researcher123> somsip: is 64 bit better than 32 bit in some ways?
[15:17] <researcher123> is it god to migrate to 64 bit system for some good reasons?
[15:17] <somsip> researcher123: lots of long arguments about how much and with what sort of apps, but short answer always seems to be 'yes'
[15:17] <RaTTuS|BIG> researcher123 - you you have more than 4GB RAm then 64Bit is going to be better in the long run -
[15:17] <OerHeks> researcher123, if there is no 64 bit version of your software, you could use IA32-libs to run 32 bit software under 64 bit.
[15:18] <RaTTuS|BIG> s/you you /if you/
[15:18] <researcher123> oh.ok
[15:18] <somsip> researcher123: eg: lots of CPU heavy work like rendering or video work might get more benefit than if you use lower demand apps
[15:19] <TTest> how can help me kill gwibber on ubuntu oneiric
[15:19] <somsip> somnium: but end result is ually, as RaTTuS|BIG says, if you have more than 4GB and have no very unusual apps that do not support 64 (though there are workarounds), you should use 64
[15:19] <is_null> researcher123: if you don't have more than 4GB or RAM and if you don't know why you need 64bit then you don't need it
[15:19] <faLUCE> deej1976: I don't understand
[15:20] <faLUCE> deej1976: which is the link?
[15:20] <researcher123> I work more by using many  virtual machines. what system will b good fr me 32 bit or 64 bit?
[15:20] <is_null> researcher123: probably won't change anything if you have less than 4GB of ram
[15:20] <MeQuerSat> researcher123, get the 64bit version
[15:20] <researcher123> I have just 4GB RAM exactly
[15:20] <is_null> then it doesn't matter
[15:21] <MeQuerSat> no, then you should get the 64bit version
[15:21] <somsip> researcher123: I can't say for definite. It depends what they're running. More RAM is better to support high numbers of VMS IFAIK. But it sounds like you should be sconsidering 64
[15:21] <roflmaus> Which service does handle /var/log/syslog? Where is its config file?
[15:21] <MeQuerSat> 32bit can only allocate 3.2gb...
[15:21] <is_null> thanks for the info MeQuerSat
[15:21] <MeQuerSat> besides, 64bit has other advantages than just memory alone
[15:21] <researcher123> MeQuerSat: thanks
[15:21] <is_null> really ?
[15:22] <somsip> researcher123: you have a spare HD or partiion? Set it up and find out for yourself base don your system and your needs
[15:22] <researcher123> MeQuerSat: what advantages like?
[15:22] <MeQuerSat> yes, lots of applications that are optimized for 64 bit run faster
[15:22] <TTest> how can I stop gwibber from running on oneiric?
[15:23] <syed> any one well known in ubuntu studio?
[15:23] <researcher123> MeQuerSat: what applications r optimized for 64 bit? where can I c that list?
[15:23] <MeQuerSat> TTest: you can kill any process by running "sudo killall <processname>"
[15:23] <fishcooker> make ubuntu mac like
[15:23] <fishcooker> ?
[15:23] <MeQuerSat> researcher123, there's not a list, but if you use VM's alot 64bit is really recommended
[15:24] <is_null> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/64-bit#Pros_and_cons starts with "A common misconception is that 64-bit architectures are no better than 32-bit architectures unless the computer has more than 4 GB of random access memory.[20] This is not entirely true:"
[15:24] <researcher123> MeQuerSat: thanks
[15:24] <TTest> MeQuerSat: That does not work
[15:24] <syed> how can i  install .deb files in ubuntu studio
[15:25] <is_null> apparently it can be harmful too "The main disadvantage of 64-bit architectures is that relative to 32-bit architectures, the same data occupies more space in memory (due to swollen pointers and possibly other types and alignment padding)"
[15:25] <MeQuerSat> TTest, if you dont use gwibber, you can always just uninstall it
[15:25] <somsip> researcher123: this is what I meant about 'long arguments'... Install it on a spare drive and find out for yourself.
[15:25] <MeQuerSat> syed: double click the file (it will open with Software Center by default)
[15:25] <researcher123> somsip: ok
[15:25] <syed> but its just extract the file
[15:26] <MeQuerSat> syed: right mouse click -> Open with Software Center
[15:26] <TTest> MeQuerSat: I do use it, I just don't want it to start by default. It doesn't respect the setting that it shouldnt start by default, and now I cant even stop it
[15:26] <Wolfsherz> hello, can someone tell me how to find out why my cpu gets so hot under ubuntu 11.10? even while idle...
[15:26] <is_null> Wolfsherz: maybe you can run the "top" command
[15:27] <MeQuerSat> TTest, you can remove "gwibber.desktop" from /etc/xdg/autostart/
[15:27] <is_null> and find something eating your cpu ...
[15:27] <MeQuerSat> syed: you can always install deb packages by opening a terminal:
[15:27] <MeQuerSat> sudo dpkg -i /path/to/package.deb
[15:28] <syed> thnks i'll try
[15:28] <Wolfsherz> is_null: there is no process that eats up cpu on that list unfortunately.
[15:29] <TTest> MeQuerSat: thanks, ill see if that helps when I reboot. I still dont get why I cant just kill it though
[15:29] <Wolfsherz> i am not sure if it might be the graphic card, its hard to tell on my laptop. since the cpu and gpu are close together
[15:29] <MeQuerSat> TTestL maybe a "sudo /etc/init.d/gwibber stop" works?
[15:30] <MeQuerSat> Wolfsherz, its probably your gpu
[15:30] <MeQuerSat> you have an AMD card?
[15:30] <Socky_> Hey all.  I am using pl2303 to do USB to serial. and then running minicom on /dev/ttyUSB0.  If i dont end my minicom session gracefully i have to unplug, then replug the device in in order to be able to minicom again because i get an error: cannot open /dev/ttyUSB0 no such device. But if i remove the plug and put it back in it works.  My question i now that I am away from the USB port and I need to connect in. How can I remove it
[15:30] <syed> its working
[15:30] <TTest> MeQuerSat: I tried that, but there's not entry for gwibber. probably because gwibber is not a proper service
[15:31] <syed> MeQuerSat : .tar is not for ubuntu?
[15:31] <MeQuerSat> syed: you have to unpack a .tar and look inside how you can install it
[15:31] <MeQuerSat> .deb is very easy to install in Ubuntu
[15:31] <MeQuerSat> Wolfsherz, also if you have an AMD video card, you can install the proprietary drivers and the temperature will go down
[15:32] <MeQuerSat> TTest: gwibber-service is a dbus service, and is generally started ondemand. It isn't a system service, so not start and stop scrips needed.
[15:32] <MeQuerSat> To stop it from the command line, or from a shell script: dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.Gwibber.Service /com/gwibber/Service com.Gwibber.Service.Quit
[15:32] <Wolfsherz> yes
[15:33] <syed> MeQuerSat : where can i get video codes for avi,vob,mkv,mp4 formats?
[15:33] <matrixiumn> hello
[15:33] <dr_willis> some of those are conatiners syed  so they are not codecs
[15:33] <syed> MeQuerSat i'm new for linux so only i have more doubts
[15:34] <Wolfsherz> MeQuerSat: last time i did that, the catalyst-driver did not recognize the correct amd-card. and the amount of ram detected was wrong also.
[15:34] <dr_willis> syed:  install ubuntu-restricted-extras for most of them.
[15:34] <MeQuerSat> syed: gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg, gstreamer0.10-plugins-good, gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad, gstreamer0.10-tools, gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
[15:34] <MeQuerSat> install those packages and you'll have most codecs
[15:34] <syed> MeQuerSat where can i get it friend?
[15:34] <MeQuerSat> you can install them by doing this from the command line:
 oh thanks
[15:34] <TTest> MeQuerSat: ps aux showed several gwibber-related processes, after killing all of those the main gwibber process also exited. Thanks for your help
[15:35] <MeQuerSat> sudo apt-get install <package1> <package2>
[15:35] <dr_willis> syed:  via the package manager tools install 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' that should pull in most codecs.
[15:35] <dr_willis> and other things you most likely want.
[15:35] <MeQuerSat> TTest: guess thats an option too :)
[15:35] <MeQuerSat> dr_willis, I deliberately dont install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[15:35] <MeQuerSat> it screws up the flash plugin
[15:36] <dr_willis> Its the first thing install MeQuerSat  and ive never had it screw up flash.
[15:36] <MeQuerSat> thats because youre using the 32bit flash plugin
[15:36] <dr_willis> actually the installer has check box's now a days that i think pulls in some of the stuff on teh first screen
[15:36] <MeQuerSat> I like to use the 64bit native flash plugin on linux ;)
[15:36] <Wolfsherz> MeQuerSat: which one would i chose to install: FGLRX graphics driver or (post-release updates)?
[15:36] <dr_willis> cant say ive ever noticed a need to use the 64 vs 321bit flash plugins.
[15:37] <MeQuerSat> dr_willis, it elimates the ndiswrapper overhead
[15:37] <syed> nice friends
[15:37] <MeQuerSat> Wolfsherz, first one: fglrx
[15:37] <Wolfsherz> MeQuerSat: the second one os FGLRX too, but with that post release udpates
[15:37] <MeQuerSat> oh, you can choose that then
[15:37] <dr_willis> cant say that ive noticed a need to worry about it MeQuerSat  :)
[15:38] <syed> any other important commands is there?
[15:38] <dr_willis> syed:  depends on what you are doing. :)
[15:38] <MeQuerSat> syed: sudo apt-get update
[15:38] <MeQuerSat> and sudo apt-get upgrade
[15:38] <syed> mm k
[15:38] <MeQuerSat> update makes sure you have the latest list of packages, upgrade makes sure all packages get upgraded
[15:38] <dr_willis> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade is a more intensive upgrade. :)  normally not needed...
[15:39] <syed> k friends
[15:40] <HypothesisFrog> every time I launch Konqueror, it launches another app called knotify4 which screws up my audio? Is there anyway I can stop it doing that ... or to configure knotify4 so it doesn't screw around my audio?
[15:40] <dr_willis> HypothesisFrog:  you are using KDE correct?
[15:40] <HypothesisFrog> dr_willis no I'm using gnome
[15:41] <HypothesisFrog> but I use konqueror for certain things
[15:41] <syed> update vs upgrade ?
[15:41] <dr_willis> syed:  updates the list. upgrades the system.
[15:42] <Valecri_> hi, i have a problem with booting windows after i deleted the ubuntu partition. i've tried all of the wikis in the ubuntu site
[15:42] <Valecri_> can anyone help me?
[15:43] <kubanc> hellow! anyone familiar with i386_start_kernel+0xaa/0xb1 error. I cannot start Ubuntu Live CD (the only thing i have connected with motherboard is graphic card, RAM, CPU, CD-ROM)
[15:43] <syed> here before i used windows 7 & ubuntu using wubi installer but i'm using ubuntu only, can i add windows 7 as a dual os?
[15:43] <dr_willis> Valecri_:  you have no linux installed at all now?
[15:43] <auronandace> Valecri_: that means grub can't work
[15:43] <Valecri_> dr_willis, no, no linux. at this time i'm with a live ubuntu
[15:43] <BlueEagle> syed: Did you by chance read the getting started guide for Ubuntu?
[15:44] <auronandace> Valecri_: you'll need to install a bootloader
[15:44] <HypothesisFrog> dr_willis can't help me?
[15:44] <Valecri_> auronandace, i always have fixed mbr with supergrubdisk, but at this time it doesn't work. now it's called rescatux
[15:45] <Valecri_> i've tried with ms-sys, rescatux, supergrubdisk2, nothing works
[15:45] <auronandace> Valecri_: it can't work if you want to repair grub. grub needs a linux partition
[15:45] <Valecri_> auronandace, i don't want to fix grub, i want to boot windows
 ok friend but install ubuntu inside the windows is possible i know.  but after installing windows in ubuntu is possible?
[15:46] <auronandace> Valecri_: then you need to install a different bootloader (and ask in a different channel)
[15:46] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: sudo software-properties-gtk -e universe && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install mbr && sudo install-mbr /dev/sda
 ok friend but install ubuntu inside the windows is possible i know.  but installing windows in ubuntu is possible?
[15:46] <dr_willis> HypothesisFrog:  cant say ive ever seen the issue. or anyone else with it. check the forums and askubuntu.com perhaps.
[15:46] <HypothesisFrog> dr_willis thanks anyway man
[15:46] <dr_willis> Valecri_:  for help with reinstalling the windows bootloader. you shoudle be asking in #windows
[15:47] <dr_willis> Valecri_: there are windows 7/vista rescue iso files from ms. depends on what windoww version as to what commands to do.
[15:47] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, i only want to fix the mbr that i've lost installing ubuntu. ubuntu caused the problem to windows and not the reverse
[15:47] <dr_willis> Valecri_:  you deleteing the grub files caused the problem.
[15:47] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: I just gave you a solution.
[15:48] <auronandace> Valecri_: you removed ubuntu and expect grub to work? are you reading what we are typing to you?
[15:48] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, what is the solution? ask in another channel or type the code above?
[15:49] <dr_willis> Valecri_:  #windows knows how to reinstall the windows bootloader better then we do.
[15:49] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: Type the code that I sent you.
[15:49] <syed> i want to install win7 now, but i dont want to change ubuntu files.. so can i install win7 without any modification in ubuntu?
[15:49] <Valecri_> auronandace, before today, i was able to fix the mbr, now i don't know what is changed. supergrubdisk or the windows 7 repair disk have always worked fine
[15:49] <dr_willis> I just boot my Win7 cd and use a few commands i got off the internet last time i needed to fix it.
[15:49] <dr_willis> syed:  you would have been netter off to isntall windows first, then ubuntu.
[15:49] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, thanks, i will try it now
 ya friend. wrongly i installd ubuntu 1st, i upgraded it. so i cant win7
[15:50] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: If that doesn't work, and you only have one hard drive in the computer, then there is something more wrong and you will need to ask in ##windows.
[15:50] <syed> i mis win7 lot
[15:50] <dr_willis> syed:  i always keep the 2 os's on their own hard drives. :)  but if you dont have 2 hd's that makes it harder
[15:51] <dr_willis> I miss win7 like one misses a Tooth Ache...
[15:51] <saady> what are you saying mr sayed
[15:51] <ugo`> Hi all, I'm a bit stuck on a server config problem: I have a vnc server which is working. I have a gateway which I setup as a vnc client, from which I can connect to the vnc server correctly. My problem is that when I try to connect to the vnc from a computer that's behind the gateway, I can't access the computers on the other side of the vnc... I'm not sure where to look. Any help greatly appreciated
[15:51] <auronandace> Valecri_: i've told you why the supergrubdisk won't work, as for win7 repair this is the wrong channel to ask about in
[15:51] <saady> this is a problem
[15:51] <saady> imagritions
[15:51] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, thanks. i hope it will work. supergrubdisk, win7 recovery disk , ms-sys and others didn't...
[15:52] <Jordan_U> syed: You can install Windows 7 again, but you'll need to be carefull that the Windows installer preserves Ubuntu's partitions, and you'll need to re-install grub afterward since Windows will overwrite grub.
[15:52] <researcher123> is there a audio recording software in ubuntu?
  its possible?
[15:52] <Jordan_U> syed: Yes.
[15:52] <saady> yeah reasearcher123
[15:52] <Valecri_> auronandace, you have not understand me. i'm not asking for help with win7recovery or supergrubdisk... i'm asking for a method. generic method that a linux user maybe knows. Not you, i assume
[15:53] <syed> i'm not well known in grub
[15:53] <Valecri_> auronandace, or maybe my english is so poor that i'm not explaining what i want to say :D
[15:53] <auronandace> Valecri_: i told you why repairing grub won't work, and i told you an alternative is to install a different bootloader
[15:54] <syed> how to re-install grub
[15:54] <dr_willis> the best way to repaur the windows bootloader would be with a Windows rescue/recovery/repair disk from MS. they have some you can download legally for free. saw them on the lifehacker blog site.
[15:54] <dr_willis> !fixgrub | syed
[15:54] <Valecri_> auronandace, i don't want to fix grub! i only want to fix the mbr
[15:54] <researcher123> saady: which software to record my own songs with music track?
[15:55] <ugo`> researcher123 did you take a look at audacity?
[15:55] <researcher123> ugo`: just installed audacity
[15:55] <dr_willis> grub installs to the mbr Valecri_  part of it is on the mbr.. and part was on the linux partions you deleted
[15:55] <researcher123> now trying
[15:56] <auronandace> Valecri_: mbr contains the bootloader (be it grub or a windows bootloader), fixing it is the same as installing a bootloader
[15:57] <saady> reasearcher123 it called LMMS
[15:57] <Jordan_U> auronandace: dr_willis: I would argue that installing ms-style mbr code to replace grub in the mbr after removing Ubuntu is on topic for this channel. And I've told Valecri_ how to do so already.
[15:57] <Jordan_U> (from within an Ubuntu LiveCD)
[15:57] <Valecri_> dr_willis, auronandace: ok, i didn't knew this. So i want to fix the previous bootloader in the mbr, the windows bootloader, i think.
[15:58] <syed> thanks friend
[15:58] <saady> reasearcher123 : it called LMMS
[15:58] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, yes, i'm from ubuntu live
[15:58] <syed> i will catch u later
[15:58] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: Have you run the command I gave? Did it finish without any errors?
[15:58] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, yes, i've typed the command but nothing happens
[15:59] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, only an error for the repos, because i'm running a live ubuntu from a pen drive, not a real cd
[15:59] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: Can you please pastebin the exact error message?

[16:00] <Valecri_> ok, thanks for the link
[16:01] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, http://paste.ubuntu.com/760570/
[16:01] <operatorplik> hai
[16:02] <operatorplik> nolden
[16:02] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: OK. The rest of the command should still work despite that error. Please try running "sudo apt-get install mbr && sudo install-mbr /dev/sda" now.
[16:02] <dr_willis> !info mbr
[16:03] <operatorplik> jjjj
[16:03] <dr_willis> given the variaty of commands/tools ive seen needed from MS for each of their os's - i would be amazed if that worked for them all. :)
[16:05] <Jordan_U> dr_willis: For just restoring the mbr and nothing else, which is all that should be needed after what Ubuntu does for a dual boot, this will work for any Windows release. The code in the mbr always just chainloads the first "active" partition in an ms-style mbr.
[16:05] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, http://paste.ubuntu.com/760575/ there's also a fdisk -l
[16:06] <auronandace> Jordan_U: interesting... you learn something new every day
[16:07] <dr_willis> Jordan_U:  makes me wonder what all the various 'fdisk \mbr' and 'fixboot' 'fixmbr' and otehr commands do.. :) i forget what one even was needed for win7
[16:07] <dr_willis> first active partion may be a recovery partiton :) guess he will find out.
[16:07] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: OK. Hopefully if you reboot now you'll be able to access Windows. If not, then something more has gone wrong than what Ubuntu installation and removal of the Ubuntu partition alone will do.
[16:07] <harkirt> Hi my wlan0 not coming up?
[16:07] <harkirt> harkirt@harkirt-HP-G5000-GF769EA-ABU:~$ ifconfig wlan0 up
[16:07] <harkirt> wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[16:08] <harkirt> i installed the additional drivers
[16:08] <dr_willis> harkirt:  you sure its wlan0? ive had wireless cards be eth0 and so on..
[16:08] <Valecri_> dr_willis, yes, it's a recovery partition but it's useless for me
[16:08] <dr_willis> so you need to set the actual windows partiion to be the 'active' partition.
[16:08] <harkirt> dr_willis: let me try
[16:09] <dr_willis> my recovery partions here have a command line/fix boot options.. :)
[16:09] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, reboot now. i hope it will work
[16:09] <Valecri_> dr_willis, mine not. it's a sony vaio F11
[16:10] <avdeveloper> help: How do I remove completely Gnome-Shell
[16:10] <Wolfsherz> i have installed the fglrx driver for my ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650. but the catalyst control center tells me that a HD4200 is installed.
[16:10] <auronandace> avdeveloper: you using 11.10?
[16:10] <Valecri_> dr_willis, it will only reset all the pc with all the vaio stuff, like a factory renewed, i don't know how to say
[16:10] <avdeveloper> auronandace: yes
[16:10] <dr_willis> Valecri_:  yes.. its a system recovery/restore partition.
[16:11] <avdeveloper> wolfsherz: for some reason the fglrx driver doesn't work for my Radeon HD4200 so I just reverted back to the defautl driver
[16:11] <dr_willis> Valecri_:  set the active partition to be the actual windows parittion and it should boot that one.
[16:11] <datalay> i installed ubuntu 11.02 , i want to use xfce
[16:11] <datalay> how can do that,
[16:11] <dr_willis> datalay:  install xubuntu-desktop package
[16:11] <auronandace> avdeveloper: is gnome-shell messing something up or do you just want to reclaim the space?
[16:11] <datalay> i dont like gnome2
[16:11] <datalay> okay
[16:11] <dr_willis> datalay:  you mean gnome3 ? and 11.04 or 11.10 :)
[16:11] <datalay> sorry gnome 3
[16:11] <auronandace> datalay: or you could use xubuntu instead
[16:11] <avdeveloper> auronandace: I want to use Gnome-Shell but for some reason, after removing fglrx Gnome-Shell looks like Gnome-Classic
[16:12] <datalay> i will use xubuntu
[16:12] <datalay> thank you
[16:12] <Wolfsherz> avdeveloper: the thing is: i have a hd5650 installed, not a hd4200 like catalyst tells me
[16:12] <avdeveloper> Wolfsherz: but are you having any problems with graphics other than the name?
[16:13] <Wolfsherz> avdeveloper: actually no, but it seems strange to me
[16:13] <datalay> dr_willis, what s you desktop
[16:13] <datalay> gnome3?
[16:13] <auronandace> avdeveloper: i think it reverts to classic if you don't have the drivers to support gnome3
[16:13] <Wolfsherz> avdeveloper: the amount of memory detected is also wrong of course...
[16:13] <avdeveloper> @Wolfsherz: then that is a problem...
[16:14] <avdeveloper> auronandace: I used to have Gnome-Shell working, so how do I get back the default driver?
[16:14] <harkirt> how to install the wireless drivers.. i tried the addtional driver but iwconfig not showing my wireless interface ?? http://pastebin.com/Z6waJygP
[16:14] <lapion> anyone know hot to get r128 support in oneiric ?
[16:14] <auronandace> avdeveloper: you'd need to reinstall the driver
[16:14] <auronandace> avdeveloper: lanch the restricted drivers thingy
[16:14] <auronandace> launch
[16:14] <avdeveloper> auronandace: ok
[16:15] <avdeveloper> auronandace: additional drivers?
[16:15] <auronandace> avdeveloper: thats the one.
[16:15] <harkirt> how to install the wireless drivers.. i tried the addtional driver but iwconfig not showing my wireless interface ?? http://pastebin.com/Z6waJygP
[16:15] <avdeveloper> auronandace: I had it working without installing any of the fglrx drivers.
[16:16] <korsakof> Hi! Is there a way to set the unity launchers to always open a new instance on left click?
[16:16] <avdeveloper> auronandace: and when I installed these fglrx drivers, Gnome-shell was screwed up
[16:16] <dr_willis> korsakof:  you do know a middle click does that right?
[16:16] <auronandace> avdeveloper: i see, hmm
[16:17] <avdeveloper> auronandace: so maybe if I can just completely remove and reinstall gnome-shell, hopefully that would work
[16:17] <korsakof> dr_willis: yes. is there a way to change from middle click to left click
[16:17] <dr_willis> korsakof:  i doubt if theres a way to change it.
[16:17] <auronandace> avdeveloper: i'm likely not the best person to help you, i use xfce and nvidia
[16:17] <avdeveloper> ah
[16:17] <harkirt> how to install the wireless drivers.. i tried the addtional driver but iwconfig not showing my wireless interface ?? http://pastebin.com/Z6waJygP
[16:17] <avdeveloper> auronandace: how about removing gnome-shell?
[16:17] <avdeveloper> auronandace: like an "sudo apt-get remove ***"
[16:18] <korsakof> dr_willis: thanks.
[16:18] <auronandace> avdeveloper: i'd imagine that would take a heap of dependancies with it
[16:18] <harkirt> can anyone can help me?
[16:18] <avdeveloper> auronandace: okay, well thanks for ur time
[16:18] <auronandace> avdeveloper: no worries, sorry i couldn't help
[16:19] <harkirt> auronandace: can you help me?
[16:19] <avdeveloper> auronandace: no problem
[16:19] <RaTTuS|BIG> harkirt have you checked https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide
[16:19] <auronandace> harkirt: i've never needed to install wireless drivers (my intel wifi works straight out the box)
[16:20] <MonkeyDust> harkirt  what OS are you using
[16:20] <harkirt> ubuntu
[16:20] <auronandace> !test
[16:20]  * RaTTuS|BIG Humps surskitty
[16:21] <MonkeyDust> harkirt  which version
[16:21] <auronandace> RaTTuS|BIG: can you turn that off?
[16:21] <harkirt> 11.10
[16:21] <junglejim> hi, Just upgraded from 10.10 to 11.10  ... looks nice but am finding it runs super slow ... harddrive seems to thrash quite a bit. Any ideas how to fix this?
[16:21] <harkirt> MonkeyDust: 11.10
[16:21] <RaTTuS|BIG> auronandace yes give me 2 mins
[16:22] <RaTTuS|BIG> !test
[16:22] <RaTTuS|BIG> gone
[16:23] <auronandace> RaTTuS|BIG: thanks
[16:23] <Cradam> hello does anyone know of a ppa for java 1.7?
[16:23] <jimjimovich> total n00b question: how do you search for files in Unity on 11.10? The search box in the lens only gives recently used files.
[16:23] <s904s> hello
[16:23] <harkirt> MonkeyDust: can you help?
[16:23] <s904s> somebody can help me
[16:23] <s904s> with a c program that I'm doing?
[16:23] <MonkeyDust> harkirt  have you tried restarting the pc?
[16:23] <mang0> !ask s904s
[16:23] <EvilResistance> Cradam:  i'm not certain there is a PPA.  Oracle's licensing of Java might be incompatible with packaging stuff.  (not certain, but...)
[16:23] <harkirt> MonkeyDust: Yes
[16:23] <mang0> !ask | s904s
[16:24] <EvilResistance> s904s:  try ##programming
[16:24] <s904s> !ask s904s
[16:24] <Cradam> jimjimovich: type search for files in the unity box
[16:24] <MonkeyDust> harkirt  have you explored iwlist and iwconfig?
[16:24] <harkirt> yes
[16:24] <Cradam> jimjimovich: it should bring up a picture of a magnifying glass
[16:24] <harkirt> MonkeyDust: http://pastebin.com/Z6waJygP
[16:25] <MonkeyDust> harkirt  has it worked before?
[16:25] <harkirt> i installed ubuntu first time
[16:25] <jimjimovich> thanks Cradam. it has an icon with a question mark. i see this is the same program for searching as before. Is there a way to search from files right from unity?
[16:25] <jimjimovich> or make it index all my files instead of just recently used?
[16:25] <Cradam> jimjimovich: personally i hate unity
[16:25] <jimjimovich> lol
[16:26] <Cradam> the old menu had a search for files dialogue
[16:26] <jimjimovich> i think it's really stupid that you have a search box and it doesn't find files in your home folder
[16:26] <harkirt> how to install the wireless drivers.. i tried the addtional driver but iwconfig not showing my wireless interface ?? http://pastebin.com/Z6waJygP
[16:26] <MonkeyDust> harkirt  i see it's a broadcom 43** wireless driver https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[16:27] <harkirt> MonkeyDust: ok
[16:27] <Cradam> jimjimovich: it is an application finder mainly
[16:27] <mang0> Is there a program like livestream or join.me, but for linux systems?
[16:27] <jimjimovich> but it has a whole files section
[16:27] <Cradam> jimjimovich: easy way to do it, open nautilus and press the search button
[16:29] <Cradam> takes a while though
[16:29] <jimjimovich> Cradam: I know ... I've been using Ubuntu for 6 years full-time :)  Just had someone ask me about why they couldn't find their files in Unity yesterday ... and I thought it was a darn good question
[16:30] <Cradam> jimjimovich: simple answer, unity sucks
[16:30] <jimjimovich> starting to agree more and more :(
[16:31] <MonkeyDust> jimjimovich  you can always switch to a different fork, i did
[16:31] <snail> selamat malam
[16:31] <snail> good night
[16:31] <uses-natty> I installed Adobe Acrobat reader 9.4.6, but its menu bar show blank items. How to fix this? natty
[16:32] <jimjimovich> MonkeyDust, yeah, personally, I like Unity ... just finding more stupid crap as I work with a lot of new users
[16:32] <auronandace> uses-natty: its not open source so basically you don't fix it
[16:32] <dr_willis> Hmm.. unity still uses the nautlilus file manager.. so im not sure how its any differnt to find your files...
[16:32] <MonkeyDust> i use the most hated and loathed fork

[16:33] <prago> hi anyone know how to support multiple php version on one server and enable AddType x-mapp-php5 in .htaccess files???
[16:34] <buttons> thanks
[16:34] <ssk_the_gr8> i used filehippo.com for windows to find the top apps, is there a similar linux equivalent?
[16:34] <jimjimovich> looks like there are some unity lenses out there that let you search ... but installing software from a PPA is not cool for new users
[16:34] <dr_willis> ssk_the_gr8:  ubuntu software center  has some star rateing system.
[16:34] <Edge1981> anybody here with experience in connecting a Bluetooth keyboard/mouse set to the latest Ubuntu?
[16:35] <auronandace> !software | ssk_the_gr8
[16:36] <Jonii> does anyone know why does touching upper right corner of touchpad paste text?
[16:36] <dr_willis> Jonii:  could be its doing a middle click.
[16:36] <Jonii> and how to turn that off? maybe even turn off touchpad while typing
[16:36] <dr_willis> middle click pastes teh 'selection'
[16:36] <ssk_the_gr8> dr_willis: i'm on 10.04 lucid , no rating system
[16:36] <buttons> how would I kill all python processes?
[16:37] <ssk_the_gr8> that is why i'm looking for a website
[16:37] <dr_willis> ive seen settings to turn off the touchpad on keypress.. but i just use the button onmy laptop :)
[16:37] <Xero-> buttons, with killall?
[16:37] <dr_willis> ssk_the_gr8:  a web site to look for what exactly?
[16:37] <buttons> so killall python?
[16:38] <Jonii> okay, so i have to give up touchpad clicks to keep using ubuntu :|
[16:39] <Xero-> buttons, i would try that
[16:39] <MonkeyDust> Jonii  in synaptic, look for gpoint blah
[16:40] <buttons> kill some of them but not all, for some reason it does not kill all the python process that have multiple threads in them
[16:40] <Xero-> buttons, killall would kill processes by name.. so if a phytoon process has a slightly different name it wont catch it
[16:40] <llutz> Jonii: from arch but most info should be helpfull for *buntu too https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Touchpad_Synaptics
[16:40] <ssk_the_gr8> dr_willis: i'll explain, if you've used filehippo.com, you'll see that it has the top 10-15 apps in each category,such as browsers, file transfer, office etc.  i'm looking for a similar website for linux, i don't like websites which have like all the apps available, if you select the office category you get 10000 different apps, I want a website which has a selection of the best apps like filehippo, I hope i'm clear
[16:40] <buttons> ok
[16:40] <joseph210> hello all, do any of you use ubuntu 11.10?
[16:40] <MonkeyDust> gpointing-device-settings - configuration tool for pointing devices
[16:41] <Xero-> buttons, but you can use regular expressions it hink together with killall.. but i think there must be a easier way
[16:41] <compdoc> joseph210, sure
[16:41] <buttons> it would seem like it, I will continue using kill and listing the pids
[16:41] <reinhold> I'm trying to setup usb/IP forwarding using the usbip package. Unfortunately, usbipd always tells me that the usbip_common_mod.ko and usbip.ko kernel modules must be loaded, but there is no ubuntu package that provides them....
[16:41] <joseph210> compdoc, when my computer goes into sleep mode and i try to restart it up. I enter my password
[16:41] <joseph210> but it gets stuck on a screen
[16:42] <Jonii> llutz: ty
[16:43] <uzr007> Heya
[16:43] <uzr007> Does anybody know how to make firefox to backspace shift go forward?
[16:43] <uzr007> I already have this backspace backward
[16:44] <dr_willis> ssk_the_gr8:  theres normally not a need for such a site in ubuntu. you use teh package manager to see whats in the repos.  and its best to install whats from the repos.
[16:45] <psikopath> hellp
[16:45] <dr_willis> ssk_the_gr8:  theres sites like the linux game tome, and getdeb,
[16:45] <psikopath> hello
[16:46] <dr_willis> state the problem psikopath  :)
[16:46] <psikopath> kkkkkkkk
[16:47] <MonkeyDust> psikopath  is down and out
[16:47] <psikopath> whattt :-(
[16:47] <RaTTuS|BIG> psikopath looks like he needs a new keyboard
[16:48] <psikopath> yeah my keyboard sick..
[16:48] <MonkeyDust> do you have a question, psikopath
[16:49] <psikopath> question??? wait minute i.m thinking :-D
[16:50] <psikopath> my question, how to ignore your bot :-(
[16:50] <theadmin> psikopath: ubottu? Don't. She gives useful advice to users.
[16:51] <auronandace> !ignore | psikopath
[16:51] <psikopath> oh thnk <auronandace>
[16:52] <auronandace> psikopath: ironic that you want to ignore the bot that gave you info you asked for though
[16:52] <Jonii> hey, how come chatting with screen
[16:52] <Jonii> + irssi crashes unity?
[16:53] <MonkeyDust> Jonii  i use screen + irssi, no complaints
[16:53] <Jonii> 11.10?
[16:53] <psikopath> ok i'm try to be friend with bot :-D
[16:54] <MonkeyDust> psikopath  i think you''ve come to the wrong channel
[16:54] <MonkeyDust> Jonii  something else
[16:55] <Jonii> first this gets stuck for until I press alt+tab, then at some point I no longer can switch between windows. at that point, ctrl-alt-f1 + ctrl-alt-f7 might help
[16:56] <MonkeyDust> Jonii  try byubo, it's an extension for screen
[16:56] <llutz> MonkeyDust: which "something else" uses unity?
[16:56] <psikopath> ok, my compiz cannot enable on ubuntu 11.10?? :-(
[16:56] <MonkeyDust> llutz  no
[16:56] <Jonii> if it doesn't, i gotta restart, restarting unity doesn't work after that anymore
[16:57] <llutz> MonkeyDust: so how is that <MonkeyDust> Jonii  i use screen + irssi, no complaints    helpful/informative if screen+irssi crashes unity on 11.10?
[16:57] <MonkeyDust> llutz  i was too fast
[16:57] <Jonii> ssh + screen + irssi, actually
[16:58] <dr_willis> i have to wonder how one is using the ssh+screen+irssi on unity.
[16:59] <psikopath> brb, restart :-(
[16:59] <MonkeyDust> i know why i don't use unity ;)
[17:00] <Jonii> dr_willis: i open terminal, type "ssh <server>" and go on to screen?
[17:00] <dr_willis> I cant see how a remote ssh session can be affecting the local unity/X server/apps at all...
[17:01] <Jonii> dr_willis: actually, i think its related to typing a lot
[17:01] <dr_willis> typing a lot breaks unity. :)
[17:02] <llutz> nice bug-report, curious about the reactions...
[17:02] <Jonii> it has never frozen when I didnt type stuff the same time
[17:02] <tqrst> can anyone recommend an image viewer that doesn't require installing half of gnome (eog) or half of kde (gwenview)?
[17:02] <ThinkT510> tqrst: ristretto?
[17:02] <r4y> I am trying to update grub from a live cd. How do I do that?
[17:03] <dr_willis> theres that new gnome-image viewer that shows a image  within the file manager... what was it called....
[17:03] <tqrst> ThinkT510: thanks
[17:03] <tqrst> dr_willis: it's called eog
[17:03] <tqrst> and requires gnome
[17:03] <tqrst> unless you meant another one?
[17:03] <ThinkT510> tqrst: no worries (i use xfce)
[17:03] <gunfire007> what is the theme changer in ubuntu called ?
[17:03] <dr_willis> not eog.. and the one i am thinking of is an addon FOR the gnome file manager.
[17:03] <llutz> tqrst: "feh" maybe?
[17:04] <gunfire007> form which we can also change the background wallpaper it was in ubuntu 10.10 gnome 2
[17:04] <dr_willis> !info xv
[17:04] <dr_willis> old skool
[17:04] <llutz> dr_willis: did xv know about png/jpg at all? ;)
[17:04] <dr_willis> llutz:  not sure. havent tried it in ages...
[17:05] <dr_willis> the good old days..
[17:05] <edgy> Hi, correct me if I am wrong but any  one can update any software and put it in a ppa with malicious code and hence hack thousands of computers
[17:05] <korsakof> just another unity question. Is there a way to prevent the switcher to switch apps from all workspace. I would like the switcher to display apps from the current desktop and maybe add a modifier like shift to switch all apps from all workspace...
[17:05] <Combatjuan> Hello.  I'm trying to get the permissions on a directory set to "drwxrwsr-x".  I'm using
[17:05] <dr_willis> edgy:  thats why we caution against using just any ppa
[17:05] <dr_willis> !ppa
[17:05] <gunfire007> what is the theme changer in ubuntu called ?
[17:05] <gunfire007> form which we can also change the background wallpaper it was in ubuntu 10.10 gnome 2
[17:05] <edgy> dr_willis: and how can I know which one I can use safely?
[17:06] <llutz> Combatjuan: chmod 2775 dir
[17:06] <Combatjuan> chmod 2775 <dirname> but that sets the permissions to "drwsrwsr-x".  According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Setgid
[17:06] <llutz> Combatjuan: it doesn't
[17:06] <Combatjuan> llutz: Sorry, my ctrl-enters got all messed up.  Anyway, that's what I'm doing.  Is "drwsrwsr-x" == "drwxrwsr-x"?
[17:06] <MonkeyDust> llutz  message received, i did not know the issue was due to unity
[17:08] <Combatjuan> llutz: Is it possible that hardy and lucid simply display the setuid bit on directories differently?
[17:08] <dottstranoforte> ciao a tutti
[17:08] <llutz> Combatjuan: chmod 2775 dir   or just chmod g+s dir/
[17:08] <SoWhat> can somebody tell me, why Share, Synchronise, Stop publishing and Copy public link  choices are disabled in Ubuntu One folder?
