[00:00] <rinkukokiri> that doesn't help
[00:00] <rinkukokiri> that tells me how to RUN it not how to USE it
[00:00] <ZenGuy> is there anyway to read .epub files on my linux box? read them out loud..like text to speech
[00:00] <Haitham76> thank u. i'll see what i can do.
[00:00] <ZykoticK9> dijonyummy, doesn't look like lightroom has a very good rating on wine's appdb - http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=5839
[00:01] <Polah> rinkukokiri: Isn't the point of it to provide a relatively simple-to-use GUI for audio settings. If you don't understand exactly which setting each option modifies, you probably shouldn't be changing those settings.
[00:01] <rinkukokiri> Polah, then the makers of drivers should update the drivers to include ICH9 Hardware and not make me figure out how to get the dang subwoofer in my laptop working.
[00:02] <rinkukokiri> Polah, and I'm not changing settings, (yet) I'm analyzing the gui, trying to FIGURE OUT what the things do
[00:03] <Polah> rinkukokiri: Are the options not labelled? Perhaps you should try pulse instead of ALSA if you're having hardware issues with ALSA.
[00:03] <ZenGuy> is there anyway to read .epub files on my linux box? read them out loud..like text to speech
[00:03] <rod95> need some support to my onboard card sound intel ac'97 not working after install 11.04 anyone
[00:04] <Polah> rod95: What sound system are you using? Pulse?
[00:04] <rinkukokiri> Polah, if you're not going to help me with what I request, please stop directing comments at me.
[00:04] <rod95> Polah, alsa
[00:04] <Polah> rinkukokiri: I did actually just try to help you. Try using Pulse instead of ALSA, like I said.
[00:05] <MonkeyDust> rinkukokiri: that's called gathering information about ur problem
[00:06] <rinkukokiri> MonkeyDust, i didn't see any questions relating to my question.. it was "why don't you install another piece of software instead of using this piece of software"
[00:06] <rinkukokiri> and "you shouldn't be fiddling with that if you don't know what it does."
[00:06] <rinkukokiri> by that definition NO-ONE should be in here asking for help..
[00:07] <MonkeyDust> rinkukokiri: ur question is very uncommon, nobody else has encountered the issue, if you find a solution or workaround, that makes you the expert :)
[00:07] <rinkukokiri> figures
[00:08] <Polah> rikukokiri: Actually, I asked if the options aren't labelled after you said you were trying to figure out what each one does. Also, by my saying that you probably shouldn't be fiddling with the settings if you don't know what they are, that's implying you should go and look up what each settings in the program does, or ask someone.
[00:08]  * rinkukokiri wonders how drivers were written if no one encountered the "speakers not working" issue..    wonders also if these drivers magically appeared as needed when the kernel was compiled.
[00:08] <tippenein> anyone know how to install video drivers from the command line?
[00:08] <Kevin`> pulseuadio is a userland mixing app, it still uses alsa
[00:09] <tippenein> i need the ati radeon hd driver download, but my computer won't boot into X

[00:13] <eniac> Kolko mi se spava....
[00:13] <teegee> hey, what's the best way to limit download speeds depending on time of day?
[00:13] <nit-wit> teegee, what p2p are you using?
[00:14] <rinkukokiri> teegee, I would suggest router limits, possibly DL client limits
[00:14] <almoxarife> there are a whole slew of gui's for mplayer, which would be the best bet? for long term and flexibility ??
[00:15] <ZykoticK9> almoxarife, mplayer cli FTW ;)
[00:15] <djiefo> Hi, anyonr know a way to play minecraft trought xubuntu 11, i tried A LOT of proceeds from forums but doesnt work :)
[00:15] <qin> almoxarife: Do you need gui for mplayer?
[00:15] <teegee> nit-wit: I'm running torrentflux, which uses it's own version: btphptornado
[00:15] <CokeMD> i keep hearing about minecraft...what is it?
[00:15] <palli> Concurr on mplayer cli. ftw :)
[00:15] <Polah> djiefo: It runs on Java, installing Java and then loading it through it should work.
[00:15] <Polah> CokeMD: A sandbox-y construction game.
[00:15] <djiefo> no
[00:16] <ysis> almoxarife: I love mplayer, because it's fully usuable without a mouse.
[00:16] <almoxarife> qin: I don't want to run mplayer from terminal if that is what you mean
[00:16] <teegee> rinkukokiri: my router doesn't support such complicated shaping
[00:16] <nit-wit> teegee, are you trying to slow down the downloads there or altogether?
[00:16] <rinkukokiri> teegee, your router doesn't have QOS?
[00:16] <lindenle> Hi all I want to turn of the bell and turn on window pflashing
[00:16] <ysis> almoxarife: I think there's gmplayer, but never tried.
[00:16] <SegFaultAX> What's the best way to destroy an Ubuntu installation to make it unrecoverably unusable?
[00:16] <almoxarife> ysis: please for the love of god, I want the mouse and the fancy bling
[00:16] <rinkukokiri> So can anyone help walk me through the process of using HDA-Analyzer to find the third speaker on my laptop and enabling it?
[00:16] <teegee> nit-wit: yeah the torrents are mainly what I'm aiming for
[00:16] <Polah> Djiefo: Download minecraft.jar from the website, http://www.minecraft.net/download/minecraft_server.jar ,make sure java is installed and then you can run it by doing java -jar minecraft.jar or setting it to be run through Java
[00:17] <alvinPH> how can i add group permission ?
[00:17] <Polah> SegFaultAX: DBAN on a disk or USB drive, boot into it and run it over the drive you want to wipe.
[00:17] <alvinPH> other user account can't access my other partitions
[00:17] <dark_injecTor> guys I donwloaded I theme from somewhere and it has inside the folder a file that says install how I can run this except from clicking with commands ?
[00:17] <teegee> rinkukokiri: it does but it doesn't allow me to specify different bandwidth for different times of day
[00:17] <SegFaultAX> Polah: I don't want to nuke the drive, just the ubuntu partitions.
[00:18] <ysis> almoxarife: it's called gnome-mplayer in the repos, that's what i mean
[00:18] <djiefo> Polah, no it don't work
[00:18] <rinkukokiri> teegee, that's right...
[00:18] <djiefo> I've done it
[00:18] <almoxarife> ysis: thnks
[00:18] <ysis> almoxarife: otherwise, just go for vlc or something like that
[00:18] <nit-wit> teegee, I haven't used that app, but all the ones I have used have a govenor you can set
[00:18] <dark_injecTor> ?
[00:18] <qin> almoxarife: who owns other partitions?
[00:18] <djiefo> I get an error
[00:18] <dark_injecTor> How I can run that ?
[00:18] <qin> alvinPH: who owns other partitions?
[00:19] <rinkukokiri> djiefo, boot into live then  dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hda
[00:19] <alvinPH> my main account..
[00:19] <qin> almoxarife: Disrergard last one, sorry.
[00:19] <dark_injecTor> some1 can tell me
[00:19] <dark_injecTor> ?
[00:19] <Polah> alvinPH: You need to set the public permission to those directories, 777 would give full read, write and execute access to everyone, 775 would give read, write and execute to the owner and group and read, execute to public (everyone). You can set 775 if you don't want everyone to access it and add the users you want to be able to access it to the group the owner is in.
[00:19] <almoxarife> quin k
[00:19] <qin> almoxarife: and what is pemission for group?
[00:19] <dark_injecTor> I have an install file inside a folder how I run it except the clicking
[00:19] <dark_injecTor> with terminal
[00:19] <Polah> djiefo: Don't do that.
[00:19] <almoxarife> qin: ? , not sure that was for me either
[00:20] <alvinPH> how can i do that? so sorry coz i'm a newbie
[00:20] <ysis> SegFaultAX: shred from a live cd
[00:20] <Polah> rinkukokiri: Did you mean to send that to SegFaultAX?
[00:20] <djiefo> lol
[00:20] <qin> alvinPH: and what is pemission for group?
[00:20] <qin> almoxarife: It was not
[00:20] <OerHeks> dark_injecTor, what is the extention of the file ?
[00:20] <rinkukokiri> Polah, yes, djiefo sorry was meant for someone else
[00:21] <alvinPH> qin: when i try to change it , it just come back to none
[00:21] <SegFaultAX> ysis: I need something faster than shred.
[00:21] <CokeMD> ysys have you used ffmpeg cli much as well?
[00:21] <rinkukokiri> SegFaultAX, you could just install windows on it      lol
[00:21] <teegee> nit-wit: torrentflux lets me set a limit but once the client is started you can't change the limit. So I'd have to kill all clients, set new limits in the config and restart them. that's last resort
[00:21] <ysis> dark_injecTor: just prepend the file with "./"
[00:21] <MagicJ> I have installed 10.04 on a machine, from a known good memory stick.  All looks good but it doesn't boot.  I did note and repeated install that after the step "settup up users" the screen went black for a moment and then displayed the live CD login - it is almost as though it forgot to write grub - any idea
[00:21] <qin> alvinPH: paste example of ls -l in, paste.ubuntu.com
[00:21] <rinkukokiri> SegFaultAX, then defrag a couple of times
[00:21] <mahdi> where can i make a payload in new metasploit on windows 7
[00:21] <SegFaultAX> rinkukokiri: I don't have a recent version of Windows laying around, though that's a good idea now that I think of it.
[00:21] <djiefo> Polah The file '/tmp/minecraft.jar' is not marked as executable.  If this was downloaded or copied from an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run.  For more details, read about the executable bit.
[00:21] <alvinPH> qin: i put all accounts to group "admin"
[00:22] <SegFaultAX> rinkukokiri: I need something fast. Like, really fast.
[00:22] <ysis> SegFaultAX: You have to at least write once over the partition. Can also use dd, but I doubt there's a difference in speed.
[00:22] <rinkukokiri> SegFaultAX, a microwave is fast :d
[00:22] <qin> alvinPH: In basick you need to add user to your main user group, not admin (this one is for sudo)
[00:22] <SegFaultAX> rinkukokiri: Hardware still needs to be usable.
[00:22] <ysis> SegFaultAX: A strong magnet can also help
[00:22] <mahdi> where can i make a payload in new metasploit on windows 7
[00:23] <MonkeyDust> what's metasploit and what's windows 7?
[00:23] <r0fs3ck5> mahdi: we won't talk about windows.
[00:23] <rinkukokiri> !offtopic | mahdi
[00:23] <Kevin`> rinkukokiri: if you use dd inproperly it will be slow. also urandom is slow
[00:23] <rinkukokiri> mahdi, you *could* try the Metasploit IRC channel
[00:23] <teegee> nit-wit: doing it through sockets seems the only reasonable way and then change bwlimit for the socket
[00:23] <rinkukokiri> lol
[00:23] <Polah> SegFaultAX: sudo if=/dev/null of=/dev/<partition
[00:24] <eross> ok, with all the talk of ubuntu leaving gnome out, gtk out, etc.. what am I supposed to code in using C++ and what windowing framework, without having the user have to go download a bunch of packages?
[00:24] <notgary> Hey, I'm trying to find a screenshot of the update manager, but not in any ordinary situation. In the past I've spotted one where the user is on 8.04 LTS and is being offered two upgrade options - 8.10 and 10.04 LTS. I've been Googling around but I can seem to find it. Does anyone have a link to a picture like this?
[00:24] <ysis> Polah: There's a "dd" missing, no?
[00:24] <alvinPH> how?
[00:24] <SegFaultAX> Polah: I've never tried to dd a mounted drive, will that even work?
[00:24] <Kevin`> SegFaultAX: dd bs=64K if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda
[00:24] <alvinPH> qin:how is that?
[00:24] <Kroplex2> When compressing a file on Ubuntu 11.04, how do you seperate it into 500mb file sizes?
[00:24] <Kevin`> SegFaultAX: you should ideally shut down the system first otherwise it could write data to the disk that won't be wiped
[00:24] <SegFaultAX> Kevin`: Can I dd the system partition while it's mounted?
[00:25] <Polah> ysis, SegFaultAX: Yeah, my bad. sudo dd if=/dev/null of /dev/<partition>
[00:25] <Polah> SegFaultAX: I imagine it would break halfway through.
[00:25] <ysis> SegFaultAX: Why wouldn't you unmount? Do you want to destroy some else's pc or what? ;-)
[00:25] <Kroplex2> Anybody?
[00:25] <ysis> Kroplex2: split
[00:26] <qin> alvinPH: your ls -l says, user1:group1, if you want to give permission for users2 add him to group1
[00:26] <Kroplex2> ysis, what does that mean? the option to split the files is disabled on every single selection available (tar.bz2, etc.)
[00:26] <haluan> hi
[00:26] <Polah> Hello!
[00:26] <haluan> I using 10.10,
[00:26] <ysis> Kroplex2: Type into your command line "man split"
[00:27] <rinkukokiri> Anyone familiar with writing audio drivers/ probing audio hardware with HDAAnalyzer?
[00:27] <Kroplex2> ysis, so I compress it into one tar.bz2 or whatever and then I use the split command?
[00:27] <djiefo> Polah in xubuntu 11 we dont have the checkab;e option to allow excution of file in properties i think. Thats make actually minecraft un bootable in xubuntu11
[00:27] <r0fs3ck5> Say, how can I easily mount and access volumes using unity?
[00:27] <ysis> Kroplex2: Guess you can also pipe it directly to split
[00:27] <alvinPH> qin: i already added my other account. but still can't access the other partition
[00:27] <qin> alvinPH: More secure is to make new group, change ownership of appropirate direstories for that group, and add users to that group. So users sitll cannot access home of main user
[00:28] <Polah> djiefo: chmod +x <file>
[00:28] <Kroplex2> ysis, how would I do that? I'm really new to ubuntu this is my first install.
[00:28] <ysis> Kroplex2: Okay, maybe you describe a little more detailed what you're trying to do.
[00:29] <SegFaultAX> Thanks for the ideas guys.
[00:29] <qin> alvinPH: On priv you may give me more info, ls /home; gorups mainuser; groups otheruser; ls -l /partition/to/share
[00:29] <SegFaultAX> (And gals, if applicable)
[00:29] <Kroplex2> ysis, I want to compress the directory ("/mnt/Users/Administrator") into 500mb section files.
[00:29] <Kroplex2> ysis, so instead of one huge 22.6GB file, several 500MB size files.
[00:30] <ysis> Kroplex2: Do you have twice as much space as the compressed file size?
[00:30] <rinkukokiri> that's about 45 files 8o
[00:30] <djiefo> Polah?
[00:30] <Kroplex2> ysis, I'm sorry? It is not compressed yet. But I have plenty of free space.
[00:30] <djiefo> How to acces to this directory in terminal?
[00:30] <r0fs3ck5> how can I mount and access volumes in unity?
[00:30] <djiefo> i mean tmp directory
[00:30] <r0fs3ck5> without using cli?
[00:30] <the__dreamer> why is my Xchat icon talking when I am on another desktop?
[00:31] <Polah> Kroplex: Could you not do tar <options> <output> <source> | split -b <size in bytes>. That might be what you're looking for, I've never actually used split.
[00:31] <Polah> djiefo: What directory minecraft.jar in?
[00:31] <djiefo> tmp
[00:31] <Polah> the__dreamer: You mean a different workspace? On GNOME at least, panels stay constant.
[00:32] <r0fs3ck5> !topic
[00:32] <Polah> Well, if you have the open/minimised window list that changes, but everything else should stay
[00:32] <jiohdi> Polah, I am using cairo dock and when I am on desktop 4 and xchat is on 1, the icon starts talking
[00:32] <ysis> Kroplex2: Maybe http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/tar-split-question-605013/ is for you. I would just create a compressed file with the compression you like. Then you can split with "split" from the command line.
[00:32] <html_inprogress> can anyone help me with this app called bitcoin-mining...
[00:32] <jiohdi> Polah, I mean a cartoon bubble with words not actual audio
[00:33] <Polah> jiohdi: I don't know. My Xchat's never done that? Are you using xchat-gnome? Try looking in Preferences.
[00:33] <r0fs3ck5> html_inprogress: there is channel for that.
[00:33] <rinkukokiri> Anyone familiar with writing audio drivers/ probing audio hardware with HDAAnalyzer?
[00:34] <TrD> i want to know my subnet, i taped ifconfig i found the line "inet"
[00:34] <ysis> Kroplex2: You should probably read the man pages of tar and split to get a clearer picture.
[00:34] <yao_ziyuan> i'm currently in windows 7 home basic due to the purchase of a new computer. should i go back to linux for security reasons?
[00:34] <TrD> my subnet is the first ? the second ?
[00:34] <rinkukokiri> yao_ziyuan, yes
[00:34] <r0fs3ck5> Anyone know an intuitive way to mount drives in 11.04?
[00:34] <rinkukokiri> yao_ziyuan, google dumped microsoft and will not allow it because of security reasons
[00:34] <jiohdi> r0fs3ck5, nautilus
[00:35] <Lenin_Cat> is there any overclock software avablie for ubuntu?
[00:35] <djiefo> Fixed!!! Thx :)
[00:35] <alvinPH> qin: i've already Pm you
[00:35] <TrD> anyone can help ?
[00:35] <ysis> r0fs3ck5: Depends on what window manager you use and what exactly you want to mount.
[00:35] <Kroplex2> ysis, reading the "man split" helped, I think I found what I need
[00:35] <eiriksvin> does anyone know how to get Ubuntu to stop thinking I want to drag the window with hotkeys?
[00:35] <Kroplex2> ysis, one following question though how do you reverse the command to put the files back together
[00:36] <ysis> Kroplex2: If you're new to linux you should get use to the "man" command
[00:36] <ysis> Kroplex2: cat
[00:36] <ysis> get used*
[00:36] <eiriksvin> I'm running blender and I need my hotkeys for ubuntu shut off
[00:36] <eross> yao_ziyuan - if you want to play BF3 (and your PC isn't a wet noodle), keep win 7 and dualboot linux
[00:36] <Polah> eiriksvin: In GNOME: System > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts
[00:36] <r0fs3ck5> jiohdi: ysis: considering there is no 'places' button on the task bar, it woukd be wise to add a widget for drives. that's my 2 cents.
[00:37] <newhoa> Hey, just a quick question for any one if it's okay... I'm trying to bulk vacuum defs recursively (svgs in folders within folders) - is this possible with inkscape via command line?
[00:37] <eiriksvin> yeah, I use classic too :P
[00:37] <newhoa> And if not, is there a general command that will repeat a command recursively?
[00:37] <Kroplex2> ysis, so like cat file2.tar file3.tar??
[00:37] <eross> which is coming out in a few months..btw anyone see win 8, they are jumping on the bandwagon. wonder if apple's new os will do the same, following suit with ubuntu?
[00:37] <ysis> Kroplex2: As I said: "man cat"
[00:37] <Polah> eross: What bandwagon?
[00:38] <w30> Kroplex2, cat file1 file2 > newjoined file name
[00:38] <eross> the tablet fad
[00:38] <rinkukokiri> this isn't ##windows
[00:38] <html_inprogress> r0fs3ck5, well there is a linux app or something,  just wanting to know what is it and and if the ubuntu channel could get some help
[00:38] <eross> neither is this apple
[00:38] <Kroplex2> w30, thank you so much, I understand reading the man to see what it does but I'm not to familiar on how to use it, that helped
[00:38] <ysis> r0fs3ck5: Which desktop environment are you talking about?
[00:39] <Kroplex2> w30, can there be more than two files, or just continous "Cat file1 file2 > file12" then "cat file12 file3 > file 123" etc.?
[00:39] <eross> anyone install ubuntu on a cheap tablet yet
[00:39] <Kroplex2> w30, ofc. you could do whatever filenames.
[00:39] <w30> Kroplex2, yep
[00:39] <jiohdi> eross,  the eiken m001 had Debian on it... pretty close
[00:39] <Kroplex2> w30, ok. cool.
[00:39] <ysis> Kroplex2: you can concatenate multiple files at once
[00:39] <DodgeViper> gnome 3 working fine in ubuntu 11.04 ?

[00:40] <r0fs3ck5> html_inprogress: type /list.  there are about 6 bitcoin channels to join for that kind of support.
[00:40] <bazhang> DodgeViper, no, its an unsupported PPA, avoid at all costs.
[00:40] <DodgeViper> okk
[00:40] <Kroplex2> ysis, and w30, thank you so much. I'll go do this now and leave you alone :)
[00:40] <bazhang> html_inprogress, #bitcoin iirc
[00:40] <jiohdi> DodgeViper, it works fine .... for about two or three days until an update comes through
[00:40] <r0fs3ck5> ysis: unity
[00:41] <DodgeViper> when will gnome 3 officially arrive with ubuntu? :\
[00:41] <ysis> Kroplex2: you're welcome
[00:41] <eiriksvin> hmm its still grabbing the window
[00:41] <bazhang> DodgeViper, next release
[00:41] <jiohdi> DodgeViper, I hear its part of OO  11.10
[00:41] <rudyv> Hi, I'm trying to configure iptables on my box to provide NAT through eth1 to eth0 (which provides DSL via PPPoE). How do I set up the rules in iptables to do that?
[00:42] <DodgeViper> ohkk.. waiting for next release! :D
[00:42] <ysis> r0fs3ck5: Hmm, I'm not using it. Sorry.
[00:42] <bazhang> DodgeViper, discussion and support in #ubuntu+1
[00:42] <html_inprogress> bazhang, is it leagal ?and what is it ? i stumble upon it
[00:42] <bazhang> html_inprogress, not on topic here, try the bitcoin channel
[00:43] <html_inprogress> bazhang,  dodgeviper? is that the next os ?  if so then when is it due ?
[00:43] <eiriksvin> how do I get my mouse to stop grbbing the window, its still grabbing Blender and moving the whole window when i press alt+left click

[00:44] <bazhang> ubun, for what
[00:44] <html_inprogress> bazhang, ok just seeing
[00:44] <Core_UK> how can I get the 10.04 livecd to recognise vfat?

[00:44] <bazhang> Core_UK, it does without fail
[00:44] <ubun> bazhang: iso file
[00:44] <bazhang> ubun, explain what you want to do
[00:44] <Core_UK> bazhang: Error mounting: mount: unknown filesystem type 'vfat'
[00:45] <eiriksvin> nm found it in window prefs
[00:45] <ysis> r0fs3ck5: As far as I understood unity is a canonical special thing, right? So I'll stay out of it. I believe in the bigger FOSS community. ;-)
[00:45] <bazhang> Core_UK, thats odd
[00:45] <dark_injecTor> guys how I can download from a mirror
[00:45] <Core_UK> bazhang: when i entered my USB
[00:45] <r0fs3ck5> ubun: daemon tools is a program for another operating system
[00:45] <ubun> bazhang: i got a old copy of a OLD game in iso file but i dont know how to use it some one said daemon
[00:45] <eiriksvin> Blender 2.5 is wicked!
[00:45] <dark_injecTor> for example I want to download xmms from hereftp.sunet.se/pub/multimedia/xmms
[00:45] <ubun> oh ok
[00:45] <r0fs3ck5> ysis: :)
[00:45] <ubun> how do i use ISO files in ubuntu1010
[00:45] <bazhang> dark_injecTor, go to the ubuntu homepage and choose alternative download methods
[00:45] <dark_injecTor> a ok
[00:46] <qin> ubun: mount or burn
[00:46] <bazhang> ubun, windows game?
[00:46] <ubun> yeah
[00:46] <Core_UK> ubun you need to extract or mount the iso, it is possible the game is for windows though if they are recommended deamon
[00:46] <bazhang> !iso | ubun
[00:46] <digitalstimulus> ubun you will probably need wine
[00:46] <r0fs3ck5> the one thing  I like about unity is that multimedia works out of the box.
[00:46] <ubun> i have wine
[00:46] <newhoa> trism: That was perfect! Thanks so much, I really appreciate it. The command line is so powerful and versatile, I really need to understand it better!
[00:47] <dark_injecTor> it sends me here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download#alternate
[00:47] <dark_injecTor> nothing has to do with showing the way I asked for
[00:47] <bazhang> dark_injecTor, what mirror
[00:47] <digitalstimulus> ubun, if you right click and mount with archive mounter, you can point to /home/username/.gvfs/iso_name as the "CD path"
[00:47] <dark_injecTor> ftp.sunet.se/pub/multimedia/xmms
[00:47] <dark_injecTor> for xmms
[00:47] <rinkukokiri> Anyone familiar with writing audio drivers/ probing audio hardware with HDAAnalyzer?
[00:47] <r0fs3ck5> pulseaudio is still broken in 10.04 which is an LTS!
[00:48] <bazhang> dark_injecTor, xmms is no longer developed nor maintained, use audacious
[00:48] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, how so?  pulse works for me
[00:48] <r0fs3ck5> rinkukokiri: I wish I was.  then I would fix my sound/vid issues.
[00:48] <ysis> r0fs3ck5: There's a guy in #ubuntu-beginners who can't use his DVD drive, maybe you can help him?
[00:48] <dark_injecTor> a ok so audacious ill check it whats the difference
[00:48] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus: keeps glitching and stuttering.
[00:49] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, hmm, never had that problem, what specifically are you doing?
[00:49] <hiexpo> what is expunged trash
[00:49] <dark_injecTor> guys I cannot put xmms although It not supported any more?
[00:49] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, my fileserver / mythtv box runs 10.04 with pulse and has a Pentium D
[00:49] <bazhang> dark_injecTor, no
[00:49] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus: playing media.  nothing special. no JACK or OSS drivers.
[00:49] <dark_injecTor> why no
[00:49] <bazhang> !xmms | dark_injecTor
[00:50] <dark_injecTor> is not working for what reason I cannot install it
[00:50] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, what kind of system are you running on?
[00:50] <dark_injecTor> Ok I see its not support it but why not use it
[00:50] <r0fs3ck5> yeah, i've heard it's only an issue with amd64
[00:50] <r0fs3ck5> which is what i'm using.
[00:50] <bazhang> dark_injecTor, its no longer around. and not supported here.
[00:50] <dark_injecTor> I can the site is up so
[00:51] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, hmm.  Unfortunately I do not have any AMD processors laying around or systems to test.
[00:51] <bazhang> dark_injecTor, you're on your own there
[00:51] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus: realtek HDA too
[00:51] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, I am running 64 bit however
[00:51] <dark_injecTor> I just asked how I can install it just this
[00:52] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus: the thing is, natty's multimedia works beautifully.
[00:52] <rinkukokiri> r0fs3ck5, what family card?
[00:52] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, I am using realtek I believe on 2 different computers, but I use regular mini-stereo 2 speaker setup
[00:52] <bazhang> dark_injecTor, why not try audacious, xmms is NOT supported here
[00:52] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus: on the same machine
[00:53] <qin> dark_injecTor: sudo apt-get install xmms2
[00:53] <dark_injecTor> man the fact is not supported makes you dont knowing how u put it
[00:53] <bazhang> qin, thats something entirely different
[00:53] <dark_injecTor> when u mean support updates etc. Doesn't have to do with installation spec
[00:53] <qin> bazhang: oh, apologies
[00:54] <r0fs3ck5> !pastebin
[00:54] <rinkukokiri> I really want my subwoofer working got a Realtek ALC663  HD Audio (with dolby 2.1) the .1 isn't seen by alsa, so I need to figure out how to make it seen by alsa (i know that involves driver level work)
[00:54] <dark_injecTor> my sound isn't working at all neither my touchpad
[00:54] <dark_injecTor> I dunno why the hell aren't working
[00:55] <dan__> hello, all. I have the latest desktop version of ubuntu. It has been running fine for over a month.   I restarted the desktop for the first time this week. I can log into the desktop but the screeen is all hazy and not drawn properly. I can pull up a terminal but everything else is rendering incorrectly. I was able to pull up the ubuntu software center and noticed that xorg-core and xorg-server were upgraded a couple of days ago. I suspect thi
[00:55] <dan__> the culprit. what can i do to fix this?
[00:55] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus: thus is my hardware. http://paste.ubuntu.com/617941/
[00:56] <chrome__> What's the alpha version?
[00:56] <bazhang> chrome__, none yet
[00:56] <chrome__> bazhang: I did an updatemanager -d and it installed me an alpha version
[00:56] <chrome__> 11.10?
[00:57] <bazhang> chrome__, #ubuntu+1 for the not yet alpha
[00:57] <dark_injecTor> any ideas
[00:57] <bazhang> dark_injecTor, about what
[00:57] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus: I'm not sure if it kernel or packages or what.  all I know is lucid is stutters on my system, but natty is crystal clear.
[00:58] <dark_injecTor> also my sound is not working
[00:58] <rinkukokiri> r0fs3ck5, I had that problem with 10.xx
[00:58] <bazhang> !details | dark_injecTor
[00:59] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, i forget what program that output is from
[01:00] <dark_injecTor> ok
[01:00] <r0fs3ck5> rinkukokiri: it's well documented in the forums.  I just can't find an acceptable solution. digitalstimulus: that's because i wrote it.
[01:00] <dark_injecTor> Am running Mint Debian and am trying to make my sound working but nothing also my touchpad isn't working
[01:00] <bazhang> dark_injecTor, mint debian? what does that have to do with ubuntu?
[01:01] <dark_injecTor> nothing but maybe u know
[01:01] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus: but you could try lswh for similar output
[01:01] <eiriksvin> can blender be used to make video game characters and what not?
[01:01] <eiriksvin> oops wrong chan?
[01:01] <bazhang> dark_injecTor, completely offtopic here
[01:01] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus: sorry, lshw.
[01:01] <j3zzu> lol
[01:03] <mac9416> I'm a noob at compiling from source. So I compiled an app with an incorrect parameter, and now  need to overwrite that install with one differently configured. Can I just run `make install` again and everything be hunky-dory?
[01:03] <delinquentme> i began downloading a few packages .. and canceled it ... where would they be found?
[01:03] <bazhang> mac9416, what app
[01:03] <delinquentme> ( so i can delete )
[01:03] <mac9416> bazhang, partimage.
[01:04] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, oh, I'm using HDA-Intel, I forgot that's what I had
[01:04] <Pirolocito> delinquentme: sudo apt-get autoremove
[01:04] <dan__> my ubuntu gnome desktop is all messed up. i suspect it id due to an update of xserver-xorg-core or xserver-common a couple of days ago. i'd like to revert these packages to the previous version. is there a log file that i can access that will show me what that last known good version was
[01:04] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, let me check my other machine, I am sure one of these had realtek
[01:04] <bazhang> mac9416, its in the repos no need to compile
[01:04] <delinquentme> Pirolocito, thanks!
[01:04] <mac9416> bazhang, it's not in the 64-bit repos.  :-/
[01:05] <rinkukokiri> I really want my subwoofer working got a Realtek ALC663  HD Audio (with dolby 2.1) the .1 isn't seen by alsa, so I need to figure out how to make it seen by alsa (i know that involves driver level work)
[01:05] <mac9416> bazhang, there is one on a debian repo, but then comes the issue of removing the compiled partimage.
[01:06] <gskellig> where can I get info on ubuntu for ARM?
[01:07] <fredhami> Hello iam using lynx10.4 and does ubuntu have a defragging utility?
[01:07] <delinquentme> does ubuntu run synaptic?
[01:07] <gskellig> it can yes
[01:07] <KM0201> delinquentme, yes
[01:07] <delinquentme> how do i access it?
[01:07] <KM0201> delinquentme, system/admin/synaptic
[01:07] <KM0201> delinquentme, or, if you're using unity, search for synaptic
[01:07] <delinquentme> is that the GUI version?
[01:08] <KM0201> delinquentme, yes.. Synaptic is a GUI tool
[01:08] <bazhang> fredhami, no need for that
[01:08] <snarkster> i installed pureadmin and pure-ftp according to the howto its easy well it wont authenticate, anyone got a better howto?
[01:08] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus:I think it's my kernel modules that are all messed up.  sometimes on boot I get HD audio - too many connections warning.
[01:08] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, wow, neither computer had realtek.  My brain must be fried today.  Hopefully you can find some resolution
[01:09] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus: http://paste.ubuntu.com/617951/  have a look at that
[01:09] <delinquentme> KM0201, i dont have a /system/admin dir?
[01:09] <KM0201> delinquentme, no, the menu... system/admin/synaptic.
[01:10] <ysis> delinquentme: Just do "sudo synaptic" from the command line
[01:10] <fredhami> ba bazhang: ty
[01:10] <delinquentme> awesome
[01:10] <delinquentme> thanks
[01:10] <mac9416> How can I find the full path of a command?
[01:10] <ysis> mac9416: "which <command>"
[01:10] <KM0201> ysis, thats not really the way to run synaptic from command line... if you wanted to do that, you should use gksudo.
[01:10] <ysis> KM0201: why?
[01:10] <bazhang> ysis, delinquentme gksudo
[01:10] <KM0201> !gksudo | ysis
[01:10] <osse> Is there an easy way in unity to minimize a window that isn't currently focused?
[01:11] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, there's me: http://paste.ubuntu.com/617952/
[01:11] <ysis> KM0201, bazhang: Didn't know that, thanks. (I don't use GUI programs as root anyway.)
[01:12] <mac9416> ysis, gracias.
[01:12] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus: for some reason I have a bunch of OSS stuff in there.
[01:12] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, this is on natty
[01:12] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus: oh
[01:12] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, let me check other computer
[01:13] <MK``> How can I get gedit to work with unicode?
[01:14] <rinkukokiri> Well since I cannot get help here, I need information on finding a dev channel, preferably one relating to sound hardware.
[01:15] <bazhang> rinkukokiri, the devel channels are not support ones. this is the support channel
[01:16] <r0fs3ck5> rinkukokiri: what's your problem?
[01:16] <rinkukokiri> I really want my subwoofer working got a Realtek ALC663  HD Audio (with dolby 2.1) the .1 isn't seen by alsa, so I need to figure out how to make it seen by alsa (i know that involves driver level work)
[01:16] <r0fs3ck5> rinkukokiri: which ver of ubuntu?
[01:17] <rinkukokiri> r0fs3ck5, latest and "greatest"
[01:17] <rinkukokiri> r0fs3ck5, it's an ICH9, (unsupported hardware by alsa)
[01:17] <rinkukokiri> http://pastebin.com/sQEeXvwV
[01:19] <r0fs3ck5> rinkukokiri: ah... that's a kernel problem, not an ubuntu problem.  if realtek would only release linux drivers we would all be happy.
[01:19] <delinquentme> HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[01:20] <rinkukokiri> r0fs3ck5, I was told I could use hda-analyzer  to probe the codec and find the speaker, problem is, I have almost no idea which pin to enable.
[01:21] <r0fs3ck5> rinkukokiri: does hda-analyser have a man page?  look for the contact details of the dev at the bottom.
[01:22] <RyanP> I have a Ubuntu Lucid machine with an nVidia GT218 [GeForce 210] connected to a Toshiba 40FT1U TV using a VGA cable. The maximum resolution I'm offered is 1370x768. I have a modeline that I think should provide me with the maxim 1920x1080 resolution, but it seems be ignored. Can anyone help?
[01:22] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, it looks like my computer that has 10.04 does not have realtek
[01:23] <rinkukokiri> r0fs3ck5, http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/HDA_Analyzer    no man page
[01:23] <digitalstimulus> r0fs3ck5, but the current computer I am on, the information I posted, does have a similar sound configuration and I used 10.10 on it and I believe 10.04 too
[01:24] <r0fs3ck5> rinkukokiri: /join #alsa
[01:25] <rinkukokiri> r0fs3ck5, already am in #alsa
[01:25] <r0fs3ck5> digitalstimulus: hmmm I'll do some more digging and try a fresh install.
[01:25] <rinkukokiri> been there all day
[01:25] <rinkukokiri> r0fs3ck5, also in ##hardware just in case anyone there knew
[01:26] <dan__> i was able to downgrade from xserver-xorg-core 2:1.10.1-1ubuntu1.1 to 2:1.10.1-1ubuntu1and xserver-common from 2:1.10.1-1ubuntu1.1 to 2:1.10.1-1ubuntu1.1 and restarted twice... now i can see my desktop
[01:26] <dan__> bizzare
[01:26] <r0fs3ck5> rinkukokiri: sorry if we don't know.
[01:27] <r0fs3ck5> !offtopic | rinkukokiri
[01:27] <rinkukokiri> Oh my lord
[01:27] <rinkukokiri> i do believe i have found my solution
[01:28] <r0fs3ck5> rinkukokiri: really?
[01:28] <rinkukokiri> i just looked @ realtek's website, found the linux driver package,
[01:28] <Success> need help
[01:28] <rinkukokiri> read the readme, it says my card is supported
[01:28] <Success> ai*-ng not working
[01:28] <Success> i think replay
[01:29]  * rinkukokiri crosses fingers and runs to terminal
[01:29] <Success> it tells me im on wrong channel
[01:29] <Success> and wont let me change it
[01:29] <Success> (sorry for line breaks)
[01:29] <r0fs3ck5> rinkukokiri: fantastic
[01:29] <MagicJ> I have a system that I believe the install worked correctly on - partition table etc all look good - howevere it appears that the boot record did not get written = how do I fix this
[01:29] <Jared555> hey, I assume this means that my hard drive is dead (especially since DD was reporting a write speed of 640MB per second on a platter based drive just before this error came up) but hoping I am wrong.... http://paste.ubuntu.com/617967/
[01:29] <Success> y can't i see cd-s
[01:30] <Jared555> the weird thing was SMART was (and still is) reporting all drives as OK.
[01:30] <r0fs3ck5> rinkukokiri: are those open source drivers?
[01:32] <djiefo> hi:), someone succeed to run ventrilo with wine? in ubuntu11?
[01:32] <rinkukokiri> r0fs3ck5, quoting the readme  "This Source Code is from www.alsa-project.org."
[01:33] <r0fs3ck5> rinkukokiri: got a link to the driver?
[01:33] <rinkukokiri> r0fs3ck5, so it looks like I already may have had it installed
[01:33] <hiexpo> Success, aircrack-ng support is #aircrack-ng   and also would suggest you read the wikis also lots of documentation there
[01:33] <rinkukokiri> http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=14&PFid=24&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false
[01:33] <rinkukokiri> it's at the bottom r0fs3ck5
[01:34] <rinkukokiri> also going to check asus' website to see if they have any linux drivers..

[01:43] <gabe_> ok i have install zoneminder now what i do
[01:43] <ZombieRamen> i need help encoding a video made in glc
[01:44] <bazhang> ZombieRamen, glc?
[01:44] <ZombieRamen> when i try encoding, it throws the error shown here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1774858
[01:44] <ZombieRamen> this is glc: https://github.com/nullkey/glc/wiki/
[01:44] <gabe_> anyone? how do i run zoneminder
[01:44] <bazhang> ZombieRamen, what are you trying to do please clarify
[01:44] <prower> hello everyone :> i've noticed a weird issue with ubuntu and my dvd burner, since 10.04 i believe...when i'm burning a dvd the speed is always limited to 4x no matter what software i use to burn it with :/ i tried fedora 15 out just to test it and it worked fine under that
[01:44] <djiefo> so, someone knoewa how to change icons in ubuntu... I wan't to put a icon of a creeper to minecraft.jar to put it in my desktop for my son. pls help :)
[01:44] <ZombieRamen> i'm trying to encode an uncompressed video that i recorded using glc
[01:45] <bazhang> ZombieRamen, using what? handbrake? ffmpeg? mencoder?
[01:45] <ZombieRamen> bazhang: GLC, though i'm not sure what encode.sh makes it use for encoding
[01:46] <osse> djiefo, right-click on the file and choose Properties. If you then click on the icon to the tip left (next to Name:, Type: etc.) then you can choose another picture to use as an icon
[01:46] <bazhang> ZombieRamen, never even heard of that. no idea as thats not the traditional tool for encoding
[01:46] <Derptron> why do some channel names have double hashes (##) ?
[01:46] <bazhang> Derptron, ask in #freenode
[01:46] <Derptron> ta
[01:47] <ZombieRamen> bazhang: glc isn't an encoding tool, it records video and audio feed to a file, uncompressed. you have to encode it separately
[01:47] <gabe_> derptron they are using a differen os
[01:47] <ZombieRamen> bazhang: I'm using https://github.com/nullkey/glc/blob/master/scripts/encode.sh to encode
[01:47] <rww> gabe_: that's not the reason
[01:47] <bazhang> gabe_, what?
[01:47] <Derptron> how does that matter
[01:47] <PacheQ> hello, is there any application besides gwibber that could allow me to update twitter from here http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/3227/pantallazosu.png ?

[01:50] <gabe_> and no zoneminder
[01:50] <osse> what happens when you right-click and choose Properties (at the bottom) from the menu that appears?
[01:51] <osse> djiefo, see above
[01:51] <PacheQ> no one?
[01:52] <ZombieRamen> PacheQ: not that i know of, but hotot is a nice twitter client over gwibber
[01:52] <djiefo> osse i said its a file somewhere
[01:52] <osse> Yes, but what happens when you right-click it and choose Properties from the menu that appears?
[01:53] <djiefo> i dont have any opition to change icon

[01:54] <vedster> Loaded into GRUB and selected the Linux (recovery) kernel, wanted to repair broken packages but can't do this without internet access. How do I enable internet access on the recovery kernel?
[01:54] <osse> djiefo, it doesn't say "Change icon" anywhere. After you choose properties, click the picture to the top left inside the small window that appears
[01:55] <djiefo> osse nothing happens
[01:55] <djiefo> xubuntu 11
[01:56] <Costavar> hi
[01:56] <basilfaulty> I would like to make a new usb installer from a livecd.. but with a diff source
[01:56] <Costavar> do you think its worth giving 11.04 a ago?
[01:56] <basilfaulty> not working for me so far
[01:56] <dforthman> Costavar, if you don't like it, you can always go back to 10.10
[01:56] <basilfaulty> if u have a spare drive...
[01:56] <osse> djiefo, ahhhh. Then I don't know, sorry. I thought you were on regular ubuntu
[01:56] <djiefo> osse :'(
[01:57] <Costavar> yeah 10.10 is very stable for me so far, don't want to spoil it.. but like the new interface
[01:57] <prower> Costavar: in my case it causes my laptop to run extremely hot, not sure what the issue is yet
[01:57] <ubuntuguy> Does bluetooth work in ubuntu 11.04?
[01:57] <basilfaulty> I have the ubuntu-alternate-amd64.iso.. how can I make usb install from?
[01:57] <Costavar> i c prower
[01:57] <lkb> unetbootin
[01:58] <Xcytre> ubuntuguy: Yes
[01:58] <dforthman> basilfaulty, you use a program called unetbootin
[01:58] <basilfaulty> ooh :)
[01:58] <ubuntuguy> Does the bluetooth icon appear in the panel when set up?
[01:59] <RyanP> I have a Ubuntu Lucid machine with an nVidia GT218 [GeForce 210] connected to a Toshiba 40FT1U TV using a VGA cable. The maximum resolution I'm offered is 1370x768. I have a modeline that I think should provide me with the maxim 1920x1080 resolution, but it seems be ignored. Can anyone help?
[01:59] <Xcytre> I use classic and it appears for me at the top
[01:59] <vedster> @ubuntuguy , depends what Bluetooth card you have. See this; https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[02:00] <osse> djiefo, there is an IRC channel called #xubuntu. You can probably ask there.
[02:00] <vedster> Loaded into GRUB and selected the Linux (recovery) kernel, wanted to repair broken packages but can't do this without internet access. How do I enable internet access on the recovery kernel?
[02:00] <djiefo> =o
[02:01] <kenny> ?
[02:01] <variant_> beretta sick name
[02:01] <bazhang> !tw | kenny
[02:01] <djiefo> thx
[02:06] <mac9416> Okay, I can access a samba share via smbclient, but can not mount it using mount.smbfs. I get 'mount error 6 = No such device or address`.  :-/
[02:07] <variant_> build?
[02:07] <Guest15191> I'm trying to set up a server box which will ban non-linux OSes from accessing the wireless network? How might I go about doing this, or is there a better channel/network to make this query?
[02:07] <variant_> you cna do that
[02:07] <variant_> set up an ssl connection
[02:08] <variant_> and see who gets redirected
[02:08] <variant_> windows redirects.... takes a little knowledge...
[02:08] <Guest15191> I just wanna ban them.
[02:08] <variant_> the user
[02:08] <variant_> or IP
[02:08] <Guest15191> like an OS-probe script like I find on many websites
[02:09] <basilfaulty> check website logs for client ver
[02:09] <variant_> wow go look up xprobe2 or someother pentest tool and google from there
[02:09] <Guest15191> thanks much.
[02:09] <variant_> what server are you running?
[02:09] <variant_> apache
[02:09] <Guest15191> ubntu maverick
[02:09] <basilfaulty> I dl unetbootin.. made +x but doesn't seem to trun
[02:09] <Guest15191> yeah
[02:10] <Guest15191> basic lamp tools.
[02:10] <variant_> hahaha the prob with logs is you can trick them easily
[02:10] <basilfaulty> yes.. well if u put in enough effort u can make win3.11 pretend to be os/400
[02:10] <variant_> point taken
[02:11] <variant_> but hey nowadays its bot swatting so the client isnt really the clinet IMO
[02:11] <Guest15191> i want to do it like yahoo's mail site, but instead of a 'not been tested to work with your OS', instead displays "access denied" if any non-linux OS tries to access any web pages, etc
[02:12] <sarthor> Hi, i am using Ubuntu 11.04 server, i can not see any tail -f /var/log/messages or tail -f /var/log/daemon.log, only syslog is there, how can i check log messages.

[02:15] <FordPrefect-> it works but 5 minutes later my apache server restarts
[02:15] <FordPrefect-> what gives?
[02:15] <basilfaulty> potentially.. sort of.. maybe
[02:15] <Maletor> anyways worse case scenario is the motherboard or at least the network part of it is borked
[02:16] <basilfaulty> is everything else working? u doing dhcp?
[02:16] <basilfaulty> got a tv?
[02:16] <sarthor> Hi, i am using Ubuntu 11.04 server, i can not see any tail -f /var/log/messages or tail -f /var/log/daemon.log, only syslog is there, how can i check log messages.

[02:18] <basilfaulty> fordprefect.. too many gargleblasters..
[02:18] <FordPrefect-> when I try to turn off my apache server it stays active
[02:19] <FordPrefect-> "service apache2 stop" no longer works either
[02:19] <basilfaulty> have u updated recently?
[02:19] <basilfaulty> when did it last work?
[02:21] <FordPrefect-> It worked  just the other day.  Should I try 10?
[02:27] <lahwran> what is the curl equivalent of wget -O $1 $2 ?
[02:27] <basilfaulty> can't seem to get unetbootin to run
[02:27] <gskellig> kroplex, the 11.04 installer has an option to format the entire disk and install ubuntu
[02:27] <gskellig> basilfaulty, 11.04+unetbootin worked fine for me
[02:28] <gskellig> in fact the wubi usb tool didn't work
[02:28] <basilfaulty> I am in the usb boot env.. the install i'd put on usb with pendrivelinux fails after the file copy
[02:28] <basilfaulty> unetbootin does nothing :(
[02:29] <lahwran> gskellig: minecraft?
[02:29] <gskellig> yea lahwran
[02:29] <basilfaulty> not even a version
[02:29] <lahwran> what did I miss?
[02:29] <lahwran> I might be able to help with this
[02:29] <gskellig> wont run, hold on ill pastebin the full error
[02:30] <basilfaulty> gskellig: did you use the desktop or alternate isos? x63?
[02:30] <basilfaulty> lol 64
[02:30] <lahwran> doesn't matter, java is available for both
[02:30] <gskellig> basilfaulty, x64
[02:31] <gskellig> lahwran, i'm helping him with a problem =P
[02:31] <lahwran> hence why I asked if I missed anything ... :P
[02:31] <gskellig> lahwran, http://pastebin.com/Rta5tKzd
[02:31] <gskellig> sorry lol
[02:31] <gskellig> desktop, x64 basilfaulty
[02:31] <lahwran> heh you need to download the launcher. wget -O ~/Minecraft.jar http://www.minecraft.net/download/minecraft.jar
[02:32] <basilfaulty> my big mistake was using partition magic to mess with the parts.. it 'fixed' some tings I shouldn't have let it
[02:32] <gskellig> i have it
[02:32] <gskellig> and I'm in /downloads
[02:32] <gskellig> its there
[02:32] <lahwran> your paste says otherwise about the second
[02:32] <lahwran> conor@UL30VT:~$
[02:32] <gskellig> eh
[02:32] <gskellig> hold on
[02:33] <gskellig> sorry, just tried it again. I'm not *that* new
[02:33] <gskellig> http://pastebin.com/vL5urc2K
[02:33] <commodore64th> Hey, does anyone know how to perform a low-level format on a hard disk?
[02:33] <basilfaulty> can I write a iso to a part and boot off that?
[02:34] <lahwran> basilfaulty: theoretically, yes
[02:34] <gskellig> oh shit yes I am
[02:34] <gskellig> Minecraft.jar
[02:34] <gskellig> minecraft.jar
[02:34] <gskellig> sigh
[02:34] <FloodBot1> gskellig: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:34] <gskellig> nevermind
[02:34] <lahwran> heh
[02:34] <bazhang> gskellig, no cursing
[02:34] <lahwran> yes, you might offend the religious people who come in here
[02:35] <gskellig> stands for ship high in transit.
[02:35] <lahwran> gskellig: irc://irc.esper.net/#minecraft, irc://irc.esper.net/#minecrafthelp, #risucraft, etc
[02:35] <lahwran> minecraft stuff is on esper, for the most part
[02:35] <basilfaulty> I almost have it going, but it fails to get into x.. seems like some/lots of stuff missing.. is there a way to run the ubuntu install in sections?
[02:35] <gskellig> yeah I got it working. downloaded as "Minecraft.jar" but the command on the website says "minecraft.jar etc etc"
[02:36] <thegoodcushion> I have a directory /mydir that has subdirs etc.  It is currently owned by root.  I want it to be owned by me so I don't have to type sudo all the time.  What's the command?
[02:36] <lahwran> anyway, anyone know what the curl equivalent of wget -O $1 $2 ?
[02:36] <lahwran> +is
[02:37] <commodore64th> So... How do I do a low-level format on my Hard Disc in Ubuntu 11.04?
[02:38] <basilfaulty> take it downstairs
[02:38] <marekw2143> hi, in ubuntu 11.04 with gnome, how to switch off x server ? alt + ctrl + backspace doesn't work
[02:38] <gskellig> use gparted?
[02:38] <marekw2143> should I use kill pid of some xserver ?
[02:38] <commodore64th> That didn't seem to work, gskellig
[02:38] <gskellig> why do you want to switch it off?
[02:39] <pksadiq> marekw2143: alt+ ctrl +printscreen+ k I think
[02:39] <gskellig> ctrl+alt+printscreen+K works
[02:39] <w30> thegoodcushion, chown -R  me.mygroup
[02:39] <gskellig> but you can usually do ctrl+alt+f1 or something if you just need a "X-less" session
[02:40] <variant_> anyone find something better than bulldog firstarter or generic iptables for ubuntu that isnt a bit$h to admin?
[02:40] <w30> thegoodcushion, chown -R  me.mygroup  /mydir
[02:40] <marekw2143> pksadiq: nono, it turned off my gnome session, but I went to graphical login screen
[02:40] <bazhang> variant_, gufw
[02:40] <marekw2143> pksadiq: so I should probably switch graphical login
[02:40] <pksadiq> marekw2143: it just restarts your X
[02:41] <marekw2143> yeah, but I'd like to test qtile window manager
[02:41] <marekw2143> and for that I would like to run it from console
[02:41] <pksadiq> marekw2143: if you need to stop do ALT + CTRL + F1 and do sudo service stop gdm
[02:41] <gskellig> run qtile with --replace
[02:41] <w30> thegoodcushion, or if you want just you chown -R me.me /mydir
[02:41] <marekw2143> gskellig: can I run it from gnome-terminal
[02:41] <marekw2143> ?
[02:41] <djiefo> the launcher creator is a xubuntu feature of it can be applied in unbuntu 11.04 too?
[02:41] <pksadiq> marekw2143: sorry gdm stop ^^
[02:41] <gskellig> listen to pksadiq  lol
[02:42] <marekw2143> ok
[02:42] <marekw2143> so I'll try that : )
[02:42] <thegoodcushion> w30: thanks
[02:42] <thegoodcushion> with a sudo in front of it, btw
[02:42] <w30> thegoodcushion, sudo in front if you don't own it
[02:42] <marekw2143> thanks pksadiq , gskellig
[02:42] <bazhang> djiefo, right click gnome desktop also has create a launcher option
[02:43] <mutant> anyone know of a way to disable BT at every boot.  Want the default to be "off" instead of "on"
[02:43] <basilfaulty> hammer
[02:43] <bazhang> basilfaulty, stop that
[02:43] <bazhang> mutant, remove it from startup apps?
[02:44] <djiefo> bazhand i was just asking, that not my problem
[02:44] <basilfaulty> does ubuntu have the servicectrl thing from redhat?
[02:44] <bazhang> !upstart
[02:44] <djiefo> I'm in xubuntu 11.04 i try to create a launcher of a .jar
[02:44] <mutant> bazhang, I think that is just the BT manager applt...that will only disable the manager, not the actual service, no?
[02:44] <marekw2143> pksadiq: I did: sudo service gdm stop  , but then qtile complained: NO DISPLAY SET
[02:45] <djiefo> i dunno i to formulate a decent command for it and i can't select the file in browser
[02:45] <djiefo> how*
[02:46] <basilfaulty> is there a command to install ubuntu from a network location
[02:46] <xilo> My wifi does not work on my new ubuntu 11.04 install, any help?
[02:46] <pksadiq> marekw2143: did you checked whether qtile is available in the session { bottom } at the login screen ?
[02:47] <bazhang> mutant, the gnome-bluetooth applet? thought the preferences could handle that, I dont have a BT device to check
[02:47] <jorgp> is cdimage.ubuntu.com down?
[02:48] <bazhang> jorgp, nope
[02:48] <zhm> hi
[02:48] <bazhang> !wifi | xilo please have a read
[02:48] <basilfaulty> is there a way to run the install in steps?
[02:49] <bazhang> basilfaulty, please clarify
[02:49] <xilo> bazhang, thanks, I'll go check it out.
[02:49] <zhm> this is my first  time to use the chat tool
[02:49] <marekw2143> pksadiq: no
[02:49]  * marekw2143 will probalby soon start using some console irc client......
[02:50] <marekw2143> pksadiq: I meant that qtile doesn't appear in the bottom at the login screen
[02:50] <jorgp> marekw2143: irssi is good
[02:50] <marekw2143> jorgp: but I like with xchat
[02:50] <pksadiq> marekw2143: then again start gdm and try in qtile terminal *and* in tty , check whether it works
[02:50] <basilfaulty> bazhang: My install failed after copying the files, I fixed with grub-install through chroot, but it lets me log on, but nothing loads
[02:50] <jorgp> xchat a console irc?
[02:51] <gskellig> no
[02:51] <gskellig> xchat is graphical
[02:51] <bazhang> jorgp, weechat is, xchat is not
[02:51] <gskellig> irssi is command line
[02:51] <r0fs3ck5> basilfaulty: type startx?
[02:51] <jorgp> that is what I thought
[02:51] <bazhang> basilfaulty, unetbootin?
[02:51] <jorgp> irssi is a console irc client
[02:51] <marekw2143> pksadiq: so I have to start gnome session, then in gnome terminal run "qtile" ?
[02:51] <basilfaulty> X starts but nothing loads in it
[02:51] <bazhang> basilfaulty, copying what files where
[02:51] <basilfaulty> unetbootin doen't run in my live-usb env
[02:52] <bazhang> basilfaulty, you tried to manually copy the files from the extracted iso?
[02:53] <pksadiq> marekw2143: I hope so, check qtile<tab><tab> to the available option , anyway what is the name of actual package, seems not be in the repos as qtile           $( !find qtile )
[02:53] <basilfaulty> the install 11.04 proceeds, copies its files, then gives an error and apologizes... % seems about 80 or so.
[02:53] <teegee> nit-wit: ok, deluge does the trick
[02:53] <bazhang> basilfaulty, and the error is what?
[02:53] <QaDeS> can i ln-s the /usr/lib dir to a drive that's not available on boot (just right afterwards, seems to be a driver problem)? or which libs would i have to exclude?
[02:53] <gskellig> basilfaulty, check the md5 of your ubuntu iso?
[02:53] <skoruppa> he there
[02:54] <skoruppa> why you ppl are not sleeping!>
[02:54] <bazhang> skoruppa, ubuntu support issue?
[02:54] <basilfaulty> So after it failed I checked and noticed a proper fs there.. used mount and chroot to real drive, then grub-install, update-grub.. now it boots but after graphical login, it just shows the background screen
[02:54] <bazhang> basilfaulty, and the exact error was what?
[02:54] <basilfaulty> something to do with pocmod?
[02:55] <r0fs3ck5> basilfaulty: can you get a cli?
[02:55] <basilfaulty> yes
[02:55] <Cyphia> Is it set to a minimal splash?
[02:55] <skoruppa> bazhang, nop, not this time.  Ubu working like a charm
[02:55] <basilfaulty> think so
[02:55] <MagicJ> I have a system that when I run apt-get upgrade or dist-upgrade tells me that 5 packages are not fully installed - and it tries to do it and fails.  How do I fix this
[02:55] <Polah> basilfaulty: your panels don't start up after you log in?
[02:55] <r0fs3ck5> can you type 'services status-all'?
[02:55] <bazhang> corrupt iso or bad "burn" most likely basilfaulty
[02:55] <Polah> MagicJ: in what way does it fail?
[02:56] <marekw2143> pksadiq: ok, now I'm on irssi
[02:56] <r0fs3ck5> basilfaulty: sorry, 'services --status-all
[02:56] <teegee> which is the file I need to edit to make apt look for ANY release-upgrade, not just LTS?
[02:56] <MagicJ> Polah:  message is: E: sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[02:56] <basilfaulty> I created the usb with 2 iso's in the dir.. it might have merged them.. screwed up my windows with partition magic tho :(.. so can only dl through the live-usb
[02:56] <pksadiq> marekw2143: great, I didn't see the package in repo, where did you installed it?
[02:56] <basilfaulty> and unetbootin doesn't seem to work
[02:56] <Derptron> how do I ls all BUT a particular file extension?
[02:56] <marekw2143> pksadiq: I've downloaded it from github.com :)
[02:57] <commodore64th> I get the error "Non blocking yet unsupported in this scsiformat binary!" when I try to run "sudo scsiformat -ftight /dev/sda"
[02:57] <Polah> teegee: /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
[02:57] <gskellig> basilfaulty, if its the partition then try starting over with a fresly formatted partition?
[02:57] <bazhang> basilfaulty, thats not using unetbootin then
[02:57] <teegee> ah
[02:57] <Derptron> i.e. if i have 50000 .txt files in a directory, and i want to list everything but .txt files?
[02:57] <teegee> thanks Polah
[02:57] <basilfaulty> I have tried overwriting etc a few times
[02:58] <pksadiq> marekw2143: harder to work with something other than ubuntu repo packages ;), any way did you try qtile command in terminal and tty? also check qtile<tab><tab> to check all the options
[02:58] <nit-wit> teegee, I was going to suggest a gui but it didn't seem to be a part of what you wanted, I use deluge. :0
[02:58] <basilfaulty> should unetbootin work from live-usb?
[02:58] <teegee> nit-wit: well, it's very much like torrentflux. it runs a daemon and provides a web gui
[02:59] <teegee> amongst others
[02:59] <basilfaulty> is there a list of steps I can do, or a script to start midway though an install?
[02:59] <commodore64th> basilfaulty, it should.
[02:59] <commodore64th> Unetbootin should run
[02:59] <marekw2143> pksadiq: qtile<tab><tab> shows only content of current directory
[02:59] <pksadiq> marekw2143: did you try running qtile?
[02:59] <teegee> nit-wit: now I just need to figure out the right rewrite rule to tell my apache to serve from localhost:8112 when asked for localhost/blah/
[03:00] <marekw2143> pksadiq: of course
[03:01] <r0fs3ck5> basilfaulty: list of very simple steps http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download
[03:01] <pksadiq> marekw2143: what does it say?
[03:01] <marekw2143> pksadiq: when I tried run qtile from gnome-terminal, then almost all screen was with grey gradient (I guess it was from gnome's "top belt" - grey panel which contains buttons like "programs", "system", "log out"
[03:01] <teegee> .. or rather why I'm getting a client denied by server configuration error. But I might leave that for another day
[03:02] <r0fs3ck5> basilfaulty: oh sorry, i see what you are trying to do
[03:02] <pksadiq> marekw2143: so is it working, atleast partially?
[03:02] <r0fs3ck5> boot multiple ISO's from a u device
[03:02] <xilo> bazhang, you there? I tried installing the drivers and got this far:
[03:02] <xilo> bazhang, http://pastebin.com/vtYcrHrr
[03:02] <marekw2143> pksadiq: yes, it's launching
[03:03] <basilfaulty> thx r0f3ck5 will try that.. got a spare 2g flash
[03:04] <xilo> Anyone: How do I fix "The 'uudecode' tool was not found on your system. Please make sure"
[03:04] <pksadiq> marekw2143: then where is the problem? did you built yourself? did you installed the following at http://pastebin.com/yequuX55 ?
[03:04] <Trfsrfr> How do I connect to the internet inside a windows install in VirtualBox?
[03:04] <gskellig> Trfsrfr, try #virtualbox
[03:04] <pksadiq> !find uudecode
[03:05] <gskellig> Trfsrfr, sorry #vbox
[03:05] <marekw2143> pksadiq: now I can't lanuch graphical session
[03:05] <Trfsrfr> cool, thanks.
[03:05] <marekw2143> pksadiq: I'm getting:  xinit: connection to X server lost.
[03:06] <marekw2143> pksadiq: after startx
[03:06] <pksadiq> marekw2143: you are now at tty? try ALT +CTRL + Printscreen + K, and restart X
[03:06] <xilo> !apt-get
[03:06] <Vilemaxim> anyone recommend a easy email server manager program. Just something that will configure smtp and pop and add and remove users separate from system users. Hopfully in a web interface
[03:06] <marekw2143> pksadiq: if tty is "not graphical session (gnome, kde etc.) then yes
[03:07] <Vilemaxim> I've used kolab, but it's overkill for my needs
[03:07] <r0fs3ck5> basilfaulty: here is an easy way: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/boot-multiple-iso-from-usb-via-grub2-using-linux/
[03:07] <marekw2143> pksadiq: startx produces the same output message: xinit: connection to X server lost.
[03:09] <QaDeS> how do i find out what's taking most time on a program startup?
[03:09] <pksadiq> marekw2143: yes, it is, try sudo service gdm restart  ,     or restart X session   or restart your PC
[03:10] <marekw2143> pksadiq: sudo gdm restart worked
[03:10] <xilo> can someone help me fix my wifi, im new to ubuntu and this is very irritating, i just need to install the driver software :\
[03:11] <pksadiq> marekw2143: better stick to gnome or kde, or I would recommend e17 with ecomorph, I couldn't find good resources for qtile on the net
[03:11] <marekw2143> pksadiq: I'd like to implement new feature to that
[03:11] <rigel> i was just trying to install blender and it says some packages could not be authenticated
[03:12] <marekw2143> pksadiq: but first have to launch it :)
[03:12] <rigel> namely libalut0 and libftgl2
[03:12] <rigel> anyone know what the deal with those is?
[03:12] <basilfaulty> r0fs3ck5: I'm trying the page you sent before
[03:12] <basilfaulty> pendrive was the one I used to create the first install
[03:13] <Vilemaxim> xilo, I don't think you have enough information to even get anyone to help you. I've setup wiki on many laptops... Working on one now. But I cannot solve ever problem and don't know if I want to help because you haven't given enough information. People will usally ignore these types of request because they are not sure what they are getting into.
[03:13] <r0fs3ck5> basilfaulty: the one on the ubuntu website won't allow for multiple os AFAIK
[03:14] <xilo> Vilemaxim, what information would you suggest I provide? I know what wifi hardware I have but not a whole lot more?
[03:14] <basilfaulty> I have the oter 2 drives disconnected, will figure that out later
[03:14] <gantrixx> I have a netbook that I've switched back to "Ubuntu Classic" on (instead of Unity), but it still doesn't show the min/max buttons and all the windows are fixed to the top left corner.  How do I change that?
[03:14] <basilfaulty> will have to reconnect my cdrom and borrow a disk
[03:14] <r0fs3ck5> xilo: can you pastebin the output of lshw?
[03:15] <Vilemaxim> xilo, what is it not doing? not showing up in network manager? not finding ssids. finding ssids but not able to connect
[03:15] <braiam> how i can set the default layout for my X server, the xkb its screwed up
[03:16] <hdevalence> I've installed ubuntu server on an old laptop and am trying to set up CUPS. CUPS will add my printer, but when I print a test page nothing happens. However CUPS thinks that everything is fine; the page is marked as printed and there are no errors.
[03:16] <xilo> r0fs3ck5, http://pastebin.com/zTWLkRxn
[03:16] <pksadiq> marekw2143: did you installed python-xlib?
[03:16] <xilo> Vilemaxim, well, when I go to my network manager there are no wireless networks available to connect to, it isn't like it isn't seeing any but not even searching
[03:16] <basilfaulty> off to give it  a go :)
[03:17] <xilo> Vilemaxim, it did the same thing with my ethernet connection but then I installed the drivers for it from a tutorial online and now my WIRED connection works but not my wireless
[03:17] <variant_> could be the HW check list or a ring 0 being nasty
[03:17] <variant_> then again im a paranoid
[03:17] <marekw2143> pksadiq: now I'm installing
[03:18] <marekw2143> pksadiq: in your paste was  info about xephyr - it launches some "graphical enivronment in window"
[03:19] <r0fs3ck5> xilo: which versio of ubuntu are you using?
[03:19] <xilo> r0fs3ck5, 11.04
[03:19] <Vilemaxim> xilo, did you try adding additional drivers?
[03:19] <r0fs3ck5> xilo: can you paste the output of ifconfig -all?
[03:19] <w30> gantrixx, Are you trying to run Compiz? In Ubuntu classic?
[03:19] <xilo> Vilemaxim, I don't know how to do that. Like I said I am extremely new to ubuntu.
[03:20] <xilo> r0fs3ck5, yes, one second.
[03:20] <hansaserver> Hi to everyone
[03:20] <hansaserver> I need a little help :-)
[03:20] <r0fs3ck5> xilo: ifconfig -a actually
[03:20] <xilo> ok
[03:20] <hansaserver> i cannot make my printer work
[03:21] <bazhang> hansaserver, check linuxprinting.org database
[03:21] <hansaserver> any one who would like to help me
[03:21] <hansaserver> im just new one in linux
[03:21] <xilo> r0fs3ck5, http://paste2.org/p/1450684
[03:22] <pksadiq> marekw2143: now try qtile   , the qtile doc also says to install the Pry unit testing framework, but the link don't give any downloads
[03:22] <r0fs3ck5> xilo: can you please type sudo service networking restart
[03:22] <xilo> Vilemaxim, when I open "Additional Drivers" it does not contain anything in the listbox and says "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system" as bold text on the top.
[03:23] <marekw2143> pksadiq: qtile prints message: no Display set
[03:23] <xilo> r0fs3ck5, "restart: Unknown instance:

[03:24] <At1antis> I'm running 11.04.  I'm trying to figure out how to adjust the launch path for a given icon in the launcher.  The launcher did not detect the correct way to launch my application when I dragged it there initially so I need a way to configure it
[03:25] <At1antis> I'm astonished to find that simply right clicking a launcher icon won't give you the ability to edit or even view the associated launch command
[03:26] <At1antis> CompizConfig Setting Manager seems to have no option for this either.
[03:27] <xilo> r0fs3ck5, did you get my last message?
[03:28] <r0fs3ck5> xilo: yes.  I can't find your wireless device in the lshw output.  can you tell us what type it is?
[03:29] <girlcar> hello
[03:29] <girlcar> hi
[03:29] <Djmaster> atlantis, what r u trying to do?
[03:29] <At1antis> djmaster, I'm trying to launch my RubyMine IDE via the launcher
[03:29] <girlcar> have anyone using ubuntu 11.10 alpha
[03:30] <r0fs3ck5> xilo: is it a marvel device?
[03:30] <bazhang> !oneiric
[03:30] <Djmaster> atlantis, what os?
[03:30] <At1antis> Djmaster: so i need to teach the launcher how to execute a shellscript in order to launch RubyMine
[03:30] <xilo> r0fs3ck5, Marvell Technology Group Ltd.
[03:30] <At1antis> Djmaster: 11.04
[03:30] <r0fs3ck5> xilo: i'll look into it.
[03:31] <Djmaster> Altantis, what session
[03:31] <At1antis> Djmaster: could you explain what you mean ?
[03:31] <Djmaster> At1antis,  xfce gnome...
[03:32] <At1antis> gnome
[03:32] <Djmaster> ok hold on
[03:32] <r0fs3ck5> xilo: and here is your solution: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-nettool/+question/155864
[03:33] <basilfaulty> it works :) thanks
[03:33] <xbmcuser> does anyone know if its possible to redirect all input for a keyboard (remote) to a window (even if its not in focus)?
[03:34] <Core_UK> Hello guys, I created a openPGP key for use on launchpad a while ago, how can i recover this?
[03:36] <Flannel> Core_UK: You lost your private half? or what?
[03:36] <Core_UK> Flannel: yes
[03:36] <Flannel> Core_UK: Make a new one.
[03:37] <rinkukokiri> so let's say I wanna make another login choice.. (akin to the ubuntu vs ubuntu classic) that uses KDE instead of gnome.. how would I do that?
[03:38] <Core_UK> Flannel: okay i will do that, thanks
[03:38] <Djmaster> At1antis, on the lancher right click on a blank space and add the create a luncher and then type in the camand rubymind
[03:38] <rinkukokiri> So that I can login to unity, classic gnome, and classic kde
[03:39] <At1antis> Djmaster: I tried that.  nothing happens when I right click on the empty areas of the launcher
[03:39] <At1antis> Djmaster: no menu or dropdown appears when I right or left click
[03:39] <hansaserver> is anyone can help me on this, rastertotmt is not installed. Is anyone can help me how to install this? thanks
[03:40] <Sanctusorium> I really need some help - I feel like I m starting to go crazy.
[03:40] <Sanctusorium> OS: 10.04 on a VPS.  It appears both VMWare and Virtualbox both need me to install new headers.  They both keep complaining that they can't find kernel headers. So...
[03:40] <Djmaster> At1antis, do ypu have the hom iocon?
[03:40] <Djmaster> hom
[03:40] <Djmaster> home
[03:40] <Sanctusorium> I tried this: apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` build-essentials
[03:41] <Sanctusorium> and I get this:E: Couldn't find package linux-headers-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5.028stab070.5
[03:41] <At1antis> Djmaster: yes the first icon is "Home Folder"
[03:41] <Sanctusorium> What do I do? :(
[03:41] <th0r> Sanctusorium: try locating the kernel headers file in Synaptic, and I think you need to install dkms also
[03:41] <Djmaster> At1antis, click on the right side of it
[03:42] <josh_> Are people here disinclined to help with a linuxmint installation problem?
[03:42] <rinkukokiri> So it's as simple as installing Kubuntu-Desktop and then logging into that session?
[03:42] <rww> josh_: Yes. #ubuntu is for Ubuntu and its official derivatives.
[03:42] <ProlificPuffin> What is wrong Josh?
[03:42] <Sanctusorium> th0r, I THINK dkms is installed.  Lets go see.  And should I be looking for that EXACT kernel headers?
[03:42] <BluesKaj> Sanctusorium, apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` build-essential , there's no"s"
[03:42] <At1antis> Djmaster: it says "home folder, keep in launcher"  thats it
[03:43] <Sanctusorium> BlueKaj in Headers?
[03:43] <th0r> Sanctusorium: I think it is just kernel-headers
[03:43] <Djmaster> At1antis, click a litl bit more to the right
[03:43] <BluesKaj> in build essential, Sanctusorium
[03:43] <josh_> ProlificPuffin: upon booting to the installation CD, my screen displays a scrambled version of my desktop (the desktop that was showing before rebooting to the CD). There are no menus or anything, just a scrambled image
[03:44] <Sanctusorium> Didn't do anything different with the absense of the 's', but we will keep it out :)
[03:44] <At1antis> Djmaster: I've right-clicked on every square inch of the home icon.. always the same dropdown appears.. says "home folder, keep in launcher"  no special dropdown is accessible
[03:44] <ProlificPuffin> Definitely sounds like an x server issue. Is this on a 32 or 64 bit live cd?
[03:44] <josh_> should be 32
[03:44] <th0r> Sanctusorium: it is linux-headers-<uname......>
[03:45] <xilo> r0fs3ck5,
[03:45] <At1antis> Djmaster: I did upgrade this ubuntu from 10.10 recently in case that matters
[03:45] <r0fs3ck5> xilo: yes?
[03:45] <ProlificPuffin> What video card?
[03:45] <xilo> r0fs3ck5, I went ahead and did not use your source but thank you. I used http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1236637.html and that worked Perfectly
[03:45] <josh_> nvidia something
[03:45] <Sanctusorium> th0r, okie, so, let me fix the command up here and get approval :)
[03:45] <xilo> r0fs3ck5, I tried it when I was running portable (USB Flash Ubuntu) and it did not work but that was because I could not find the ./wine folder.
[03:45] <josh_> I forgot (lol)
[03:45] <BluesKaj> Sanctusorium, sudo apt-get install build essential , if you're looking to compile
[03:45] <xilo> r0fs3ck5, thank you SO much for your support I was about to like cry haha
[03:46] <rinkukokiri> josh lshw -C Video will tell you the model
[03:46] <ProlificPuffin> The Nouveau driver in Ubuntu distros can be flakey Josh.
[03:46] <ProlificPuffin> Does an Ubuntu CD boot to a working screen?
[03:46] <r0fs3ck5> xilo: good to hear you found a solution.
[03:46] <At1antis> Djmaster: is my launcher behaving abnormally ?
[03:46] <josh_> I have only tried mint so far
[03:47] <Sanctusorium> BlueKaj, it says 0 upgraded, and 0 everything else
[03:47] <rinkukokiri> BluesKaj, i think build-essential is installed by default now
[03:47] <Core_UK> if I generate a new openPGP key do I need to sign the code of conduct again?
[03:48] <Sanctusorium> th0r, BluesKah, apt-get install linux-headers-<uname -r> build-essential
[03:48] <Sanctusorium> Is that better?
[03:48] <Sanctusorium> rinkukokiri: I actually did it yesterday.
[03:48] <rinkukokiri> aah
[03:48] <Sanctusorium> Thats why its up todate
[03:48] <th0r> Sanctusorium: I think if you install build-essential it will include the headers
[03:49] <Sanctusorium> th0r, it says build-essential is up to date.
[03:49] <ProlificPuffin> Try an Ubuntu CD Josh. If it boots, it could just be a bad burn of the Mint CD...
[03:49] <Hexxeh_> Hi
[03:49] <rinkukokiri> Sanctusorium,  see (pretty default install here, installed day before yesterday) I just ran sudo apt-get install build-essential and it says "already latest version"
[03:49] <josh_> I tried 3 different burns, burned on 2 different pcs
[03:49] <Hexxeh_> Just installed Natty fresh on my MacbookPro 5.5 and it seems like only a single CPU core is being recognised? Is this a known issue?
[03:49] <Djmaster> At1antis, no just not clicking in the right spot try the black part on the right spot near the home folder
[03:50] <BluesKaj>  Sanctusorium, why the  linux-headers-<uname -r> , I'm not sure how that helps
[03:50] <Sanctusorium> rinkukokiri: I'm on a VPS server eidition.  My world is confusing
[03:50] <rinkukokiri> lol
[03:50] <Sanctusorium> BluesKaj: I thoguht that was supposed to update the headers?
[03:50] <trism> it is also a really old kernel, which is probably why you can't find the headers, that isn't the lucid kernel
[03:51] <At1antis> Djmaster: no you're wrong I've clicked every friggin pixel.  What am I supposed to be looking for anyways ?
[03:51] <At1antis> Djmaster: earlier you told me I could right-click on the empty icon spaces and something was supposed to happen yet nothing happens
[03:52] <BluesKaj> Sanctusorium, there's no need to update headers unless you're installing kernels or kernel modules
[03:52] <Sanctusorium> BluesKaj, th0r, I am finding headers in Synaptic.  I have linux-headers-2.632-31 server installed.
[03:52] <Sanctusorium> BluesKaj: VMware/virtual box want them updated apaprently
[03:52] <Hexxeh_> Here's a /proc/cpuinfo dump from my Macbook Pro where the issue happens: http://pastebin.com/e8S7Nbbb
[03:52] <Sanctusorium> They are calling for this exact one... But it can't be found:
[03:52] <Sanctusorium> E: Couldn't find package linux-headers-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5.028stab070.5
[03:53] <Sanctusorium> And Synaptic wont go lower than 2.6.32 apparently
[03:54] <BluesKaj> Sanctusorium, I'm not a a VM user  I misunderstood
[03:54] <jazzycrazzy> I am using Ubuntu 10.10 when i installed it was running smoothly but now the startup and shutdown is bad..when i start up the ubuntu logo is not there and when i shut down it shuts with with a bad distorted logo of ubuntu and the shutdown messages...is this normal....???
[03:54] <excedere> jazzycrazzy, dual monitors or anything out of the ordinary?
[03:55] <Sanctusorium> BluesKaj: Yeah, I am goign through a lot of work get something that I want to host on a VPS running.  But it requires .Net 4.0
[03:55] <jazzycrazzy> excedere, no
[03:55] <Sanctusorium> Otherwise I would have used Wine and been on my merry way
[03:55] <excedere> odd to say the least
[03:58] <jazzycrazzy> excedere, it boots up properly but only the startup and shutdown is hectic ,even it has become slow ,and forgot to mention i have two desktop managers....one is awesome..
[03:58] <Hexxeh_> Anything extra I can get to help diagnose this issue? Only getting a single-core detected on my Macbook Pro
[04:03] <TimothyA> is there a way to mount --bind a directory inside a bound directory and still make it accessible?
[04:03] <whiteybulger> how can i install windows in the first 20 percent of my hard drive, and have a full encryption install [ / swap /boot ] on the rest of the drive ?
[04:03] <hydromet> hello, after installing a Debian binary package onto my Ubuntu system (9.10), using "dpkg -i xyz.deb" I sometimes get this message at the end of the output from dpkg: "Processing triggers for sreadahead ..." but not always. Does anyone know what this means?
[04:05] <jared555_> When using two monitors with different resolutions (1680x1050 and 1920x1080) is it possible to have one unified desktop but not have the mouse move past the edge of the screen?  Unfortunately they are not even the same aspect ratio so scaling completely sucks.
[04:05] <wasabi2> Has anybody managed to get multiarch installs of a kernel working? Want to get a 64 bit kernel on this 32 bit box.
[04:05] <N008> oh dear how do I get back into windows?
[04:05] <jared555_> right now I am using twinview with nvidia drivers
[04:06] <jazzycrazzy> N008, type sudo shutdown  -r now
[04:06] <N008> jazzycrazy what does that do?

[04:14] <jared555_> is there any way to restrict mouse movement to what is actually displayed on screen when using xorg with multiple resolutions?
[04:14] <Hexxeh_> Just checked kernel log, CPU1 wasn't responding on boot and so isn't being used, looks like this is a bug on MacbookPro5.5, any Mactel folk around?
[04:15] <N008> Ok Ive restarted, but I still want windows back during start up I got welcomed to slackware?
[04:15] <maverick_> Sye_Montaris: ~/.wine/drive_c
[04:15] <jazzycrazzy> Jared555, i am having problems with startup and shutdown can you help??
[04:15] <excedere> One does not simply reboot out of slackware
[04:15] <jazzycrazzy> N008, did u take out the disk?
[04:15] <rinkukokiri> lol @ rebooting out of slackware
[04:16] <N008> jazzycrazy yes could it have been infected with a virus?
[04:16] <Fudge> unlikely
[04:16] <jazzycrazzy> N008, no
[04:16] <Hexxeh_> Troll alert.
[04:16] <maverick_> how does one install slackware by mistake
[04:16] <SyGeek> Just noticed Skwire's "Video 2 MP3" Program got featured in gHacks. This might be dumb but I'm just wondering if it is scripted with AHK or not?
[04:16] <N008> so how do I have this slackware welcome?
[04:17] <N008> please help mr get back to windows
[04:17] <excedere> I accidentally the entire 6 disc install set
[04:17] <Lxndr> I want to use  VPN to connect to my workplace and then RDP into my windows box there. How can I set up VPN?
[04:17] <psusi> go troll elsewhere...
[04:17] <maverick_> Lxndr: depends on your works VPN type
[04:18] <Fudge> N008  you are aware this is an ubuntu channel? if you installed slackware beside  windows and if you use grub update-grub how ever your distro does it and windows shoudl appear in your boot menu, at spalsh try pushing escape to see boot options.
[04:18] <rinkukokiri> 1 this isn't windows support 2 this isn't slackware support 3 this isn't troll's playground
[04:18] <N008> help me back to windows
[04:18] <Sye_Montaris> maverick, do I put that in the console?
[04:18] <Flannel> N008: See ##windows
[04:18] <rinkukokiri> N008, ^^
[04:18] <jared555_> N008.  Unplug the system and throw it out the tallest window you have access to.  The shock will reorient the bits to windows.
[04:18] <N008> please help me back to windows
[04:18] <Fudge> sorry N008  if you are blind install speakup or go bother someone else if you wont listen or read
[04:18] <maverick_> Sye_Montaris: your wanted the location of the drive c in wine from your console right?
[04:19] <Lxndr> maverick_, Apparently it's "PPTP"? I have instructions from my work on how to set up windows. Sadly, they won't support ubuntu.
[04:19] <maverick_> Lxndr: can
[04:19] <rinkukokiri> i wonder
[04:19] <Hexxeh_> Got a bug where only one core is working on a Macbook Pro 5.5, appropriate part of dmesg here: http://pastebin.com/jNAaeEKd
[04:19] <rinkukokiri> nope
[04:19] <maverick_> Lxndr: can you send me your windows instructions? minus any password/usernames
[04:19] <jazzycrazzy> jared555_, can u help me?
[04:19] <Lxndr> maverick_, Sure. How? DCC? email?
[04:20] <Fudge> i too wish to create a vpn or use  aservice to connect computers together not dropbox but dont know where to start
[04:20] <excedere> Lxndr, Have you tried clicking on the little arrows on your taskbar and setting up a vpn?  PPTP should be the only option
[04:20] <rinkukokiri> PPTP is usually the option of choice..
[04:21] <N008> ok I rebooted but where is my windows?
[04:23] <Lxndr> excedere, I've tried setting up a VPN. But it seems to fail. It's in the list when I open setup. But I cannot seem to conenct to it.
[04:23] <Lxndr> connect, even.
[04:23] <__mikem> why do the ubuntu repositories include libfreebasic but not the freebasic compiler itself?
[04:25] <excedere> Lxndr, Any kind of error message?  Failed authentication or destination unreachable?
[04:26] <Hilikus> is it possible to reinstall ubuntu without losing my user data?
[04:26] <Lxndr> excedere, I see no error messages. I'm actually unsure how to connect to it.
[04:26] <psusi> Hilikus, yes.. just use manual partitioning and DONT check the format button
[04:26] <Lxndr> excedere, It exists in the configuration list, but not in any other connection selection I can find.
[04:27] <Hilikus> psusi: and it won't recreate /home/* ?
[04:27] <root_> hi
[04:27] <Flannel> Hilikus: If you have a separate /home partition already
[04:27] <Flannel> Hilikus: If not, you can migrate to one
[04:27] <Hilikus> Flannel: i don't
[04:27] <Flannel> !separatehome | Hilikus
[04:28] <root_> hello all
[04:28] <dr4c4n> hi root_
[04:28] <__mikem> Flannel do you happen to know why libfreebasic but not the actual freebasic compiler is in the repositories?
[04:28] <root_> how are you today?
[04:28] <dr4c4n> root_: I'm fine, but do you have a support related question.. it's a support channel
[04:29] <DaPenguin> __mikem: probably the lib is there for compatibility, but might be some legal/idealogical issues with the actual compiler
[04:29] <__mikem> DaPenguin the compiler is open source under the GPL
[04:29] <root_> can you help me?
[04:29] <dr4c4n> root
[04:29] <osmosis> Has anyone ever found a decent replacement for DU Meter?  Panel System Monitor just doesnt cut it.
[04:29] <DaPenguin> __mikem: meh, just grab the source and install it yourself.
[04:29] <dr4c4n> root_ depends on the question
[04:30] <__mikem> DaPenguin yeah I know, its just strange
[04:30] <root_> @dr4c4n hii can you help me?
[04:31] <bindi> !ask | root_
[04:31] <dr4c4n> bindi: thx
[04:31] <bindi> :-)
[04:32] <Hilikus> Flannel: but if i dont have a separate partition i cannot reinstall without losing the data?
[04:32] <insigne> amsn
[04:32] <Hilikus> i mean, is it necessary or just recommended?
[04:32] <root_> How do I use backtrack 4?
[04:32] <insigne> yes
[04:32] <Lxndr> excedere, maverick_: Thanks for your help. Apparently the only other thing I need to do is reboot. Guess I'll be back soon. Wish me luck.
[04:32] <Flannel> Hilikus: Correct.
[04:32] <rww> root_: Backtrack Linux isn't an official derivative of Ubuntu, so it's not supported here. Try #backtrack-linux.
[04:33] <Flannel> Hilikus: Well, the other way to reinstall and "not lose data" would be to back it up, reinstall, then restore from the backup
[04:33] <semitones> what type of distro is backtrack
[04:33] <excedere> Lxndr, seems like it but I hate making that suggestion :D
[04:33] <__mikem> hey rww  would you happen to know why libfreebasic is in the ubuntu repositories but the actual freebasic compiler is not?
[04:33] <DaPenguin> root_: generally unless you know how to use it already, backtrack isn't for you
[04:33] <rww> __mikem: if I did, I would have answered when you asked the first time ;P
[04:33] <Lxndr> excedere, Me too. Rebooting is unpleasant...
[04:33] <__mikem> :(
[04:33] <dr4c4n> semitones: perhaps u should also join #backtrack-linux
[04:34] <semitones> dr4c4n: nah, I am not motivated enough to join another channel or google search
[04:34] <root_> so what should I do?
[04:34] <excedere> Seems to me like you could manually restart all the net services and achieve the same result
[04:35] <DaPenguin> root_: try just vanilla ubuntu or kubuntu to start with. if you find later you want backtrack for whatever reason, install it then
[04:36] <root_> but i love backtrack
[04:36] <Flannel> root_: That's fine.  Go ask questions about it in their support channel.
[04:36] <DaPenguin> root_: why, specifically?
[04:36] <excedere> Does anyone else check openbsd.org once in awhile just to see how many remote holes they've had?
[04:37] <root_> yes, i love cracker
[04:37] <DaPenguin> root_: if it's just 1 or 2 particular apps, they install just fine on regular buntu.
[04:38] <DaPenguin> root_: and anything in the backtrack repos you can get freely other places as well
[04:38] <excedere> Just install nmap and you can pretend you're just like Trinity
[04:38] <DaPenguin> lol
[04:38] <root_> how to install openoffice on backtrack?
[04:39] <DaPenguin> root_: this should really be taken to the backtrack channel, but you have to add the ubuntu repos, should be able to do it via the software manager
[04:40] <excedere> Id just like to know why hes trying to use BT as a desktop distro when it clearly wasn't designed for that
[04:40] <docmur> so last night I added crossfire to my computer, when I installed the ati driver and rebotoed ubuntu was unable to boot, it just hung.  So I reinstalled 10.10 and now the same hanging during boot problem is happening.  I can boot single user mode fine, and the instaler worked.  I don't know what to try next. Ubuntu should boot in < 5Seconds i have it on a SSD, thats it's normal boot time when it works
[04:41] <DaPenguin> meh, its got an ubuntu core so its def possible
[04:41] <DaPenguin> altho if he's doing that i would make a non-root account tho
[04:42] <excedere> Lxndr, working?
[04:42] <Lxndr> Okay! The VPN is there and is working. Now... any idea how I can RDP into my desktop?
[04:42] <Lxndr> yes, excedere. :) The first step in my journey is functional.
[04:42] <excedere> remote desktop should be installed, poke around in the internet submenu
[04:43] <edwardthefma> hey
[04:43] <Lxndr> I have found 'Remote Desktop Viewer.' Not sure what it needs from me.
[04:43] <excedere> ip or hostname of your machine
[04:43] <Lxndr> I give it the name of my computer, and it says 'connection closed' almost immediately.
[04:44] <excedere> make sure you're not trying to ssh into it, which is probably the default protocol
[04:44] <Lxndr> no, I'm using the other protocol.vnc?
[04:44] <excedere> is remote desktop running on your work machine?
[04:44] <Lxndr> excedere, It should be. I'm pretty sure I set it up before I left.
[04:45] <ray_> hey guys! just installed xubuntu 11.4 the first time ever. so this is very new and a litle bit confusing :-) and i hope the more experienced users can help me :-)
[04:46] <excedere> try another client, apt-get install rdesktop
[04:46] <Hilikus> Flannel: one last question. if i do have a separate partition it will save only /home but will lose all my /etc configuration
[04:46] <edwardthefma> will 11.04 run on a old win 98 lap with a pentum processor and 288 mb of ram
[04:47] <Flannel> Hilikus: Correct.
[04:47] <Lxndr> excedere, rdesktop is already the newest version. Guess that's what I'm using?
[04:47] <Flannel> Hilikus: Backup your /etc (it's tiny, filesize-wise) and restore select files from it later (or use it as a reference for reconfiguring)
[04:47] <excedere> edwardthefma, You may want to select a lighter weight disto for something that old
[04:47] <docmur> so last night I added crossfire to my computer, when I installed the ati driver and rebotoed ubuntu was unable to boot, it just hung.  So I reinstalled 10.10 and now the same
[04:47] <docmur>                 hanging during boot problem is happening.  I can boot single
[04:47] <docmur>                 user mode fine, and the instaler worked.  I don't know what to
[04:47] <docmur>                 try next. Ubuntu should boot in < 5Seconds i have it on a SSD,

  pm
[04:48] <edwardthefma> van i
[04:48] <edwardthefma> can
[04:48] <Hilikus> i have backup of everything, i just don't want to do a massive restore since i'm worried it will load the problems that i'm trying to fix with the reinstall
[04:48] <Guest3239> everyone here speak english?
[04:48] <ari__> #ubuntu-id
[04:48] <Hilikus> this is for a netbook. there's no netbook edition anymore right?
[04:48] <rww> Guest3239: presumably, since this is the English-languge Ubuntu tech support channel ;)
 can i pm you
[04:48] <excedere> Lxndr, I would think if the connection was outright refused rdp isnt running on your work machine
[04:49] <Lxndr> excedere, I'll have to investigate when I go in monday. Thanks for the help so far.
[04:49] <Guest3239> Oh,I'm a Chinese student
[04:49] <teddyroosebelt> is it safe to use ppa with libreoffice?
[04:50] <excedere> Lxndr,  if you have nmap installed or care to install it you could also nmap the machine and see what ports its listening on
[04:50] <rod95> need some support, my desktop onboard sound card, intel ac'97 is not working after installing 11.04
 what distro would you recomend
[04:51] <nit-wit> teddyroosebelt, if you're running libreoffice already then you pretty safe.
[04:51] <excedere> DSL, Puppy... Ubuntu probably has a light weight variant
[04:51] <nit-wit> *you're
[04:53] <teddyroosebelt> well i added the libreoffice/ppa because i heard you can get the latest 3.4. without doing my homework on what ppa is or its safety
 wich distro would you recomend for this old lappy top
[04:53] <metbsd_> i'm using xchat-gnome
[04:54] <excedere> edwardthefma, <excedere> DSL, Puppy... Ubuntu probably has a light weight variant
[04:54] <metbsd_> how do i move left panel to tab

[04:54] <excedere> metbsd_, Settings > Preferences > Channel Switcher is probably what you're after
[04:55] <lunarblaze> for some reason my computer wont run anything. it wont run blender even!
[04:55] <excedere> edwardthefma, broadband or not you should pick a distro suited to older hardware
[04:56] <edwardthefma> ok
[04:56] <edwardthefma> well i want somthing that is supported XD
[04:56] <necro_> i believed xchat-gnome just crashed

It just shows me a terminal-like screen where i can login and execute commands. While typing "startx" it gives me a security error. While typing "gdm" it gives me a "org gnome display manager" error. Can anyoane help, please?

[05:00] <rinkukokiri> xubuntu = An official version of Ubuntu Linux that uses the XFCE desktop environment. Designed for low-specification computers.
[05:00] <edwardthefma> ligher
[05:00] <necro_> it's not supported by us

[05:13] <Desen> can anyone help me with a small and quick problem regarding the Desktop Manager on 10.04?
[05:13] <excedere> Desen, Just ask someone will jump in if they know the answer
[05:14] <Desen> well, it is a small problem with GNOME under 10.04. I thought that i should test KDE on the same machine, and i installed kde-desktop. Now, it wont start the graphical interface. It just shows me a terminal-like screen where i can login and execute commands. While typing "startx" it gives me a security error. While typing "gdm" it gives me a "org gnome display manager" error.
[05:15] <excedere> do you remember the exact error startx gave you?
[05:16] <jagdeep> how to restore ubuntu to previous state like windows restore
[05:16] <wasabi4> heh. heh. got the 64 bit kernel running.
[05:16] <Desen> excedere, it was a security policy that prevented the command
[05:17] <Desen> i just want to get back on my Linux. Do not like that i have to stay on Windows for this problem ( :P )
[05:17] <excedere> Did this happen all of a sudden or after a driver install or xorg.conf chance?
[05:17] <excedere> change*
[05:21] <excedere> "You die a little inside each time you see "Linux  2.6.38-8-generic"" should be a valid reason for recompiling the kernel
[05:26] <AbuMaia> What changed between 10.10 and 11.04? Before the upgrade, my computer was able to run BOINC distributed computing projects and play music or videos and games at the same time with no problems. Once I installed 11.04, music, videos and games all stutter or lag while BOINC is running. What happened to make my computer run worse than before?
[05:27] <jawnah> a great starting point is http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/whats-new
[05:29] <codeshah> ..
[05:29] <quiescens> AbuMaia: there were some changes to process scheduling that probably changed the behaviour of processes that use priorities
[05:31] <Alexhans> hi, question for anyone who uses samba and ubuntu (I'm running 11.04 in dual boot with windows 7).  I set up the Workgroup and can access the drives without trouble.  But the files are 440 so  Ican't execute, for example, a java file
[05:31] <Alexhans> I tried chmod, but It's not working
[05:31] <Raikia> Does anyone know a good CL and WebUI torrent program for a headless server?
[05:31] <AbuMaia> quiescens: BOINC is already set to nice 19, is there anything else I can do short of downgrading back to 10.10 or 10.04 to get these new settings to behave as they once did?
[05:31] <qin> !torrent | Raikia
[05:32] <MK``> AbuMaia: Unity uses marginally more memory than gnome shell, did you switch UIs?
[05:32] <quiescens> AbuMaia: that's just it, the new linux scheduling by default groups processes by tty as such
[05:32] <quantumlemur> hey, my gnome-terminal bell isn't working, depite the fat that it's enabled and all other sound works.  the problem just started when I upgraded to 11.04.  Anybody have any ideas where to look?
[05:32] <quiescens> AbuMaia: so "nice" priorities don't have as much of an effect as it originally did
[05:33] <AbuMaia> quantumlemur: if you're on a laptop, it might not have an internal speaker for that. I had that same problem and gave up on it
[05:33] <xilo> May someone please help me install my Realtek Ethernet driver?
[05:33] <osmosis> Has anyone ever found a decent replacement for DU Meter?  Panel System Monitor just doesnt cut it.
[05:33] <xilo> on ubuntu 11.04
[05:34] <quantumlemur> AbuMaia, I am on a laptop, but is that a change between 11.04 and previous versions?  I thought that it played a little click sound through the normal speakers?
[05:34] <xilo> !drivers
[05:35] <AbuMaia> quantumlemur: I never got it to work on my laptop, so I don't know how it sounds
[05:36] <Alexhans> hi, question for anyone who uses samba and ubuntu (I'm running 11.04 in dual boot with windows 7).  I set up the Workgroup and can access the drives without trouble.  But the files are 440 so I can't execute them, for example, a java file.
[05:38] <avernos> can i make a startup disk  with other distro other than ubuntu? i've tried with the make startup disk tool but wont show the iso in the menu
[05:40] <x2xx3x> avernos: yes use unetbootin
[05:40] <avernos> thanks x2xx3x, wil try
[05:41] <x2xx3x> ;)
[05:41] <jon8> Hey guys!
[05:41] <avernos> surprised that the ubuntu tool wont let you use other iso :S
[05:41] <jon8> How can i setup /etc/motd to be able to use bash scripting..
[05:42] <bouma> giday, i want to install a package, dvdisaster, but it needs dvdisaster-doc which is like 21meg, how can i get the prog without the 2nd package?
[05:42] <bouma> hmm wierd it let me this time.
[05:43] <avernos> x2xx3x, do you know if you can have more than 1 live cd in a usb drive? using grub to choose which distro to load
[05:44] <x2xx3x> if your usb device is big enough you can manually edit the partition table via palimpsest
[05:44] <AbuMaia> so if 'nice' doesn't work as it once did, what other means of adjusting program priority are there?
[05:44] <microm> somehow, I am confused with regards to how to install vmware...
[05:44] <x2xx3x> create 2 bootpartitions and 2 swap partitions
[05:45] <microm> I mean, where do I donwload it from?
[05:45] <Seven_Six_Two> what are the default permissions/owner/grp for /home
[05:45] <avernos> 2 boot partitions? what about installing the other distro and just editting the grub ?
[05:45] <x2xx3x> microm : you mean renice
[05:46] <AbuMaia> x2xx3x: I think that was for me?
[05:46] <x2xx3x> you an also make a multiboot-usb device
[05:47] <x2xx3x> AbuMaia: oh yes
[05:47] <MK``> avernos: each installation of linux needs its own /boot, they cannot share one
[05:47] <j300pr0nz> gf
[05:47] <j300pr0nz> Guyz
[05:47] <j300pr0nz> I need help in sharing a folder to a windows network
[05:47] <x2xx3x> thx MK
[05:47] <avernos> i see, i was hoping that would be included in the filesystem. never saw it in the usb drive. now i know what to look for
[05:48] <excedere> j300pr0nz, samba
[05:48] <AbuMaia> as I understand it, renice changes the nice priority level, which doesn't work as it once did, so what is there besides nice and renice?
[05:48] <j300pr0nz> samba?
[05:49] <j300pr0nz> hey
[05:50] <j300pr0nz> help me
[05:50] <excedere> http://www.samba.org/samba/
[05:50] <excedere> you'll also want swat, apt-get install swat
[05:50] <excedere> enjoy.
[05:51] <j300pr0nz> ok thanks man
[05:52] <AbuMaia> quiescens: the change in priority handling, is that a kernel change, in which case I'm probably screwed whether I downgrade or not, or is it a change within Ubuntu?
[05:53] <j300pr0nz> g
[05:54] <j300pr0nz> how can I private Message sum one?
[05:54] <Alexhans> excedere, do you know if I'm doing something wrong with samba?  I set it up in ubuntu 11.04 and it mounts 2 NTFS partitions (I only care about the one where windows isn't insatlled)  I can read but all the files are 400 and I can't execute anything
[05:54] <Alexhans> tried chmod but it does nothing
[05:54] <AbuMaia> ,/msg name
[05:54] <andro_lsv> click their name
[05:54] <bazhang> j300pr0nz, ask first
[05:54] <AbuMaia> without the ,
[05:54] <x2xx3x> AbuMaia: how did you tell it to your system?   i do : renice "priority" "process id"
[05:54] <j300pr0nz> ok
[05:55] <AbuMaia> x2xx3x: I did it through system monitor
[05:55] <teegee> Alexhans: is it mounted 'noexec'?
[05:55] <Alexhans> I have absolutely no idea
[05:56] <x2xx3x> what did you quote in there?
[05:56] <excedere> Alexhans, not sure.. all my setups go the other way
[05:56] <excedere> mounting folders on the linux server within windows
[05:56] <teegee> Alexhans: type mount and look for options in brackets
[05:56] <Alexhans> Am I using th right version of samba? I got it from the ubuntu software center
[05:56] <Alexhans> says Samba Server Configuration Tool 1.2.63
[05:57] <AbuMaia> x2xx3x: I right-clicked the process and selected change prioritf
[05:57] <Alexhans> nope
[05:57] <AbuMaia> priority*
[05:57] <excedere> so you can view the files but say you go to open a jpeg or something, you get a permissons error?
[05:57] <Alexhans> drive on type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096,default_permissions)
[05:58] <Alexhans> drive is dev/sda5 and /sd2
[05:58] <codeshah> hey guys, my browser cannot seem to list the contents of a directory on apache / ubuntu
[05:58] <codeshah> it is blank... what types of permissions do I have to set?
[05:58] <x2xx3x> aha - never tried it trough a shell??
[05:58] <teegee> Alexhans: why do you keep linux executables on an ntfs partition anyway?
[05:58] <codeshah> the owner of the directory is also part of the www-data group so I am a bit confused
[05:58] <Alexhans> I do not
[05:58] <Alexhans> It's a JAR
[05:59] <teegee> oh
[05:59] <Alexhans> I want to be able to use Rachota.jar
[05:59] <quiescens> AbuMaia: its a kernel change as of 2.6.38
[05:59] <excedere> seems to me like its not authenticating properly
[05:59] <quiescens> AbuMaia: but you can disable it if you compile your own
[05:59] <AbuMaia> x2xx3x: didn't see a need to use terminal when I could do it gui
[05:59] <Alexhans> rachota is an organizing tool ,and I use it at work, on windows
[05:59] <Alexhans> I used it here, on windows as well
[05:59] <teegee> Alexhans: what error do you get when you try to run it?
[05:59] <Alexhans> thing is, it's synching with Dropbox and I'd like to keep it that way
[06:00] <Alexhans> hold on
[06:00] <quiescens> AbuMaia: i don't know if there is a way to disable it without changing the option and compiling your own kernel, if you want to have a look around you're probably looking for 2.6.38 automatic task grouping or something like that
[06:00] <AbuMaia> quiescens: that would be a first for me
[06:01] <Alexhans> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: rachota_23/jar
[06:01] <Alexhans> but, then again, I can't even run a bash script
[06:01] <adsenior> Hi...Is there any software like Internet Download Manager for ubuntu ??????
[06:01] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: make a launcher to run: java /path/to/Rachota.jar     obviously change the path and be sure to honour case
[06:01] <x2xx3x> AbuMaia:ok so im sorry - cant help in gui
[06:02] <teegee> Alexhans: bash scripts which are located on that ntfs partition or any bash scripts?
[06:02] <ascheel> Anybody in here with mdadm in Ubuntu?
[06:02] <AbuMaia> x2xx3x: thanks for the attempt :)
[06:02] <Alexhans> bash: ./test: Permission denied
[06:02] <excedere> if hes not able to execute anything then it would be a permissions issue...
[06:02] <Alexhans> on that partition
[06:02] <Alexhans> I'll try somewhere else
[06:02] <jiltdil> As i open my browser it is showing Error 500: IDL:smgt.juniper.net/sae/SAEException:1 how to get rid of this?
[06:02] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: do you use Sun Java in Windows?
[06:02] <x2xx3x> ok
[06:02] <x2xx3x> ;)
[06:02] <Alexhans> yes, ActionParsnip
[06:02] <ascheel> just ask the question.  I'm moving an mdadm array from one PC to another. Do I just need the mdadm.conf file, install mdadm on the new machine, and throw the drives in and good to go?
[06:03] <zorphon> I have a question about using Ubuntu Pitivi to edit Windows videos, I open it from the 'host' mount, and the video runs fine after installing H.264 decoder, but it has noa udio
[06:03] <Alexhans> forgive me if I'm doing something obviously and terribly wrong, I'm kinda new to linux
[06:03] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: have you installed Sun java in Ubuntu?
[06:03] <excedere> Alexhans, do the samba credentials match that of the windows user?
[06:03] <Alexhans> yes, ActionParsnip
  : Is there any software like Internet Download Manager for ubuntu ?????
[06:04] <cmdrbatguano> Is there a way to have the kernel send a signal other than sigkill when resource limits are exceeded?
[06:04] <MonkeyDust> adsenior: you mean torrent download?
[06:04] <joshuau> what is the ubuntu off topic channel called?
[06:04] <zorphon> I have a question about using Ubuntu Pitivi to edit Windows videos, I open it from the 'host' mount, and the video runs fine after installing H.264 decoder, but it has no audio
[06:04] <cmdrbatguano> Can I say "If you use more than xgb of memory, send a sigquit"?
[06:04] <hiexpo> #ubuntu-ot
[06:04] <ActionParsnip> adsenior: people use jdownloader (needs java) and uget. I use fatrat on my fileserver
[06:05] <ascheel> zorphon: h.264 is video, not audio.  need the audio codec
[06:05] <Alexhans> ok
[06:05] <w30>   /part
[06:05] <joshuau> hiexpo: #ubuntu-ot cheers
[06:05] <Jordan_U> zorphon: Open the video in totem and it should prompt you to install the needed audio codec.
[06:05] <Alexhans> [02:03:27] <excedere> Alexhans, do the samba credentials match that of the windows user?
[06:05] <Alexhans> you mean the WORKGROUP?
[06:05] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: that's as much as I know on java dude, sorry
[06:06] <teegee> Alexhans: I don't know much about java
[06:06] <Alexhans> k, no prob, thanks for trrying
[06:06] <Alexhans> the thing here
[06:06] <Alexhans> Is why I can't change file permission with chmod
[06:06] <Alexhans> or is ntfs not prepared for that?
[06:06] <excedere> workgroup, username, password... I have a feeling you're being denied because its not authenticating to windows
[06:06] <teegee> Alexhans: you shouldn't write to a ntfs partition
[06:07] <teegee> not safe
[06:07] <Jordan_U> teegee: There is nothing wrong with writing to ntfs.
[06:07] <Alexhans> it's not the one in which the system is installed ,though
[06:07] <Alexhans> stil not safe?
[06:07] <teegee> ah, things change. sorry
[06:07] <Jordan_U> Alexhans: teegee is mistaken, writing to ntfs is perfectly safe.
[06:07] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: ntfs is too primitive to hold linux permissions
[06:07] <zorphon> Jordan_U, where do I find totem? I just installed Ubuntu for the first time like an hour ago, excuse my noobiness
[06:07] <Alexhans> what about ntfs32?
[06:08] <excedere> which is why its piped through smb
[06:08] <Alexhans> is there a type I could use in both windows7 and Ubuntu to be able to share data and read write?
[06:08] <gskellig> does anybody know the best way for me to recover files that may have been lost in a format?
[06:08] <gskellig> is there any hope?
[06:08] <Jordan_U> zorphon: It's the actual name of "Movie Player" which is installed by default.
[06:08] <zorphon> Jordan_U, actually.. I did, that's why it prompted me to install the h.264 decoder, I did that but it only has the video. It gave no suggestions on other codecs
[06:08] <MonkeyDust> gskellig: try testdisk
[06:09] <gskellig> thanks
[06:09] <Jordan_U> gskellig: What did you do specifically?
[06:09] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: same, you can read and write to ntfs though. Copy it to a Linux filesystem and you are smug
[06:09] <Jordan_U> zorphon: I assume other audio does play?
[06:09] <zorphon> Yes other audio does play. The video plays and has audio in VLC, but nothing else
[06:09] <Alexhans> ActionParsnip, sorry, I do not follow, what do you mean copy it to a linux filesystem?
[06:10] <endgame> would you i find my server address for doing PHP code? i tried "sudo cat /ect/resolv.conf" and that didnt work
[06:10] <ActionParsnip> gskellig: use your backups is going to be the best way by far
[06:10] <Alexhans> remember I'd like to be able to access this data both when I load windows OR ubuntu
[06:10] <Jordan_U> zorphon: What audo codec does VLC say the video uses?
[06:10] <zorphon> Jordan_U, where can I find that?
[06:10] <celthunder> endgame: ifconfig
[06:10] <Alexhans> and, while it's mostly read, I'd eventually write or execute something
[06:11] <gskellig> ActionParsnip, I'm looking for just a few photos that I don't have backed up anywhere
[06:11] <Palzieri> Hello guys
[06:11] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: copy the file to your Ubuntu home folder and you can mark it executable
[06:11] <MonkeyDust> gskellig: testdisk is a recovery tool
[06:11] <gskellig> It's not THAT big of a deal if I can't recover it, I'd just like to try
[06:11] <gskellig> and I'm willing to try pretty hard =P
 i entered that command and where would that be i see alot of address and "Stuff"
[06:11] <Palzieri> I am trying to upgrade my EOL Jauntie 9.04 but with no success.
[06:11] <Alexhans> ActionParsnip, and then I copy it back?
[06:12] <Palzieri> Can somebody give me any idea????
[06:12] <Jordan_U> !eol | Palzieri
[06:12] <celthunder> endgame: inet_addr
[06:12] <AbuMaia> quiescens: I found a command to modify the task grouping, will see how it turns out
[06:12] <Jordan_U> zorphon: Tools > Codec Information.
[06:12] <Palzieri> Already done, but no succes
 thank you
[06:12] <Jordan_U> !details | Palzieri
[06:13] <gskellig> MonkeyDust, a recovery tool? Is it possible for it to recover files from a formatted partition?
[06:13] <ActionParsnip> gskellig: scalpel or foremost may help if the data isn't overwritten. You'll need a fairly large partition to spit EVERY image it finds to, then review
[06:14] <Jordan_U> gskellig: What did you do to "reformat" it exactly?
[06:14] <ActionParsnip> gskellig: i also suggest you review your backup regime
[06:14] <zorphon> Jordan_U, audio is MPEG AAC audio, Stereo, 44100 Hz
[06:14] <MonkeyDust> gskellig: try and use the result for future reference
[06:14] <teegee> Alexhans: no copying back
[06:14] <Palzieri> I tried to update my sources.list on the basis of what that site says, but when I issued the command to update it only downloaded 40 MB and my release is still the same
[06:15] <Alexhans> but then I wouldn't be able to use it from Windows, unless I synched with some kind of ext2 reader
[06:15] <MonkeyDust> Palzieri: backup - fresh install
[06:15] <Alexhans> and I'd probably be in the same situation
[06:15] <gskellig> ActionParsnip, I do a pretty good job of backing stuff I need up, there were a few pictures I put from my sdcard to my hard disk I wanted to save, then formatted my sdcard
[06:15] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: copying back will strip the executable data.
[06:15] <Jordan_U> gskellig: What did you do to "reformat" it exactly?
[06:15] <Alexhans> btw, the jar file works in the home folder, no problem
[06:15] <MonkeyDust> gskellig: formatted or deleted the files?
[06:15] <teegee> Alexhans: surely the application doesn't change very often
[06:15] <Alexhans> maybe I could find a way to use the executable from an allowed place
[06:15] <gskellig> formatted, I used gparted to resize the partition and reinstalled ubuntu =/
[06:15] <Alexhans> and store the data in the ntfs
[06:16] <Alexhans> because I DO have writing permissions
[06:16] <gskellig> but the sdcard all I did was reformat, haven't taken a picture since
[06:16] <Alexhans> yes, Tegee, problem was, that were the application stored it's files (same folder)
[06:16] <MonkeyDust> gskellig: maybe testdisk goesd deep enough to recover after a format
[06:16] <Alexhans> but I reckon I can dig inside that jar and find a way to choose the paths myself
[06:16] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: yes exactly. Because the filesystem is decent it can hold the data well
[06:17] <gskellig> I'm still messing around with testdisk
[06:17] <teegee> Alexhans: can you create a file in that folder?
[06:17] <chris_> why isnt Yahoo Zimbra Desktop in the repositories?
[06:17] <Alexhans> in the NTFS, yes
[06:17] <Alexhans> I have 440
[06:17] <Alexhans> I can read, write, modify
[06:17] <Alexhans> no prob
[06:17] <Guest43670> like it used to be there and now it is gone
[06:17] <Alexhans> wait
[06:17] <Alexhans> 660
[06:17] <FloodBot1> Alexhans: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:17] <Alexhans> is it?
[06:17] <MonkeyDust> Guest43670: why is philosophical question
[06:17] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: 440 isn't rwx
[06:17] <Guest43670> is there a reason zimbra was removed MonkeyDust?
[06:17] <Alexhans> heh, sorry about flooding
[06:18] <a5h15h> how to setup two computers so that they can be remotely controlled by one another...tutorial available? One's lucid other maverick
[06:18] <Jordan_U> gskellig: testdisk won't help you if you actually wrote another filesystem over you ntfs filesystem, which it sounds like you did. photorect (which is part of the same project as testdisk) may be able to help though.
[06:18] <teegee> Alexhans: 660 doesn't necessarily mean that you can write
[06:18] <Alexhans> 660 is rw-
[06:18] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: neither is 660
[06:18] <Alexhans> right?
[06:18] <Jordan_U> gskellig: s/photorect/photorec/
[06:18] <Alexhans> damn, I suck
[06:18] <ActionParsnip> Right
[06:18] <gskellig> i wrote an ext4 over an ext4
[06:18] <Guest43670> what was the reasoning in removing Yahoo Zimbra Desktop from Software Center?
[06:18] <MonkeyDust> !ot| Guest43670
[06:18] <Guest43670> MonkeyDust, this is on topic
[06:19] <Alexhans> it's rw- and the rest are --- as well
[06:19] <Alexhans> what's that?
[06:19] <Alexhans> 600
[06:19] <Guest43670> I am asking why a piece of software that I use commonly was removed
[06:19] <Alexhans> r = 4 w 2 x 1?
[06:19] <teegee> Alexhans: you need 5 or 7 for execute
[06:19] <Guest43670> this directly effects me
[06:19] <nit-wit> Guest43670, how would any of us know, if you don't.
[06:19] <Alexhans> k, I had mixed them up, I have 6 then.  Only for the owner and no way to change it
[06:20] <ActionParsnip> Guest43670:  could submit a bug to say it needs packaging. You could always make a PPA and host debs you make of the app
[06:20] <teegee> what do you get if you do chmod u+x <file> ?
[06:20] <Guest43670> ActionParsnip, it used to be in the repos
[06:20] <zorphon> Jordan_U, so what can I do?
[06:20] <Guest43670> one of the apps that I actually liked
[06:20] <Alexhans> teegee: , nothing
[06:21] <AbuMaia> quiescens: the command had an immediate effect. my music no longer stutters, and I can play vids and games with BOINC running again
[06:21] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: yes, so 6 = 4+2 = r+w
[06:22] <teegee> Alexhans: no error and the permissions don't change?
[06:22] <Alexhans> no error
[06:22] <Alexhans> and they don't change on ls-l
[06:23] <Alexhans> we're talking inside a folder in the mounted NTFS partition, of course
[06:23] <Alexhans> outside, it works fine
[06:23] <Jordan_U> zorphon: What happens when you try to open this sample aac audio file in totem http://www.nch.com.au/acm/sample.aac ?
[06:23] <teegee> Alexhans: you could copy the executable in a folder on your linux partition and symlink all the other files in
[06:24] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: if you mount it manually, you can tell Ubuntu to allow you to execute and then ALL the files will be executable
[06:24] <adil8055> i need help on grub
[06:24] <Jordan_U> !details | adil8055
[06:24] <zorphon> Jordan_U, how do I open it in totem? It works fine in the browser, if that matters at all
[06:24] <Alexhans> ActionParsnip, so, no using samba, I take, I need to research how to mount it manually?
[06:25] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: why not just copy it?
[06:25] <Jordan_U> zorphon: Download it and open it in "Movie Player". To do it in the terminal would be "cd /tmp/ && wget http://www.nch.com.au/acm/sample.aac && totem sample.aac"
[06:25] <Alexhans> sorry, heh, I'm dense today, copy what?  the exec files to the linux filesystem?
[06:26] <Alexhans> Because I'd like to be able to leave things just as they are ant not complicate with sync any more than I have to
[06:26] <ActionParsnip> Alexhans: yes, you can chmod without issue then

[06:27] <OmarAli> Hello, I got a quick question: I installed Cairo & played around with it a bit..then i kind of was like.. no.. i don't need it ..so i removed..but what it did is remove the icons as well.
[06:27] <teegee> Alexhans: manual mount is easy, just use the fmask option

[06:28] <Palzieri> Ubottu: I thought you were clever
[06:28] <Alexhans> k, I'll research into the manual mount,  I think it'll be educational and I'll be able to customize it to my needs, eventually
[06:28] <gskellig> woah
[06:28] <Alexhans> should I remove samba in a particular way to guarantee no obstacles?
