[19:35] <amokpaule> Hello, i switched today from an nividia to an ati gfx card. Now it seems the system cannot find the new card. Looking under Hardware drivers says No property drivers to use.
[19:36] <rinku_kokiri> Stereocaulon:~#  roduct: [SB Live! Value] EMU10k1X
[19:36] <Guest25127> Wow, we have NOT terminals (!terminal) now! Cool ;-)
[19:36] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ alright uis there there anything else left to do with this window?
[19:36] <flowbee> erUSUL, now i have no panels
[19:36] <dajhorn> amokpaule: Install the fglrx package.
[19:36] <steph291> harvi_svk : nessus 4.2 don't anymore client, it's web based
[19:36] <erUSUL> amokpaule: did you (re)moved the old /etc/X11/xorg.conf out of the way?
[19:36] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, Ah, I used to have that one in my old system, happily running Ubuntu 8.10
[19:36] <erUSUL> flowbee: o.0!
[19:37] <rinku_kokiri> yeah, it runs fine in 8.10, but my video is borked in that ver
[19:37] <arkanabar> Quagmire, hit "Apply" -- you should get a warning.
[19:37] <holmser> One more random question: I am trying to use a 10.10 bootable flash drive to reinstall ubuntu, but it keeps failing because the squashfs has bad blocks?
[19:37] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ Is it just an ADD choice or is there something else
[19:37] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, do you have two sound cards/ chips in one system?
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: sounds like a bad driver or a faulty sound board possibly. You my need an option on your sound module as it loads or on the kernel. I tend to steer clear of creative rubbish. Seen too many problesms
[19:37] <flowbee> erUSUL, what do i do now
[19:37] <amokpaule> i have installed the fglrx package and yes my xorg.conf is gone
[19:37] <rinku_kokiri> Stereocaulon:~# 3 technically, onboard, sb live, video card w/hdmi
[19:37] <Guest25127> flowbee - try re-botting
[19:37] <Guest25127> or even re-booting
[19:37] <flowbee> ok
[19:37] <erUSUL> flowbee: alt + f2 - run gnome-panel
[19:38] <rinku_kokiri> i use the sb live cause it has two outputs and i have jacked speakers (one set is really quiet, one set has a bad channel)
[19:38] <ActionParsnip> holmser: did you md5 test the iso you transferred to the device?
[19:38] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ Create as = Primary Partition ....File Sytem = ext4 .....Label = (nothing) the only thing I see is Add
[19:38] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: did you disable the onboard?
[19:38] <holmser> ActionParsnip, I md5 tested the iso, is there a way to verify the install on the flash drive?
[19:38] <arkanabar> Quagmire, hit "add" and then hit apply.
[19:38] <rinku_kokiri> ActionParsnip:~# explain
[19:39] <Guest25127> @holmser yes
[19:39] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ There was only Add ...then the window went away
[19:39] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: go into the bios and turn off the onboard soundcard, there will be less confusion for the OS
[19:39] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, sounds like ALSA is having a hard time selecting which card to use for which application. I had this on my previous computer as well. I t took a lot of fiddling about with my alsa.conf to fix it.
[19:39] <rinku_kokiri> ActionParsnip:~# if you're asking in the bios, no, cause it's not there
[19:39] <holmser> Guest25127, care to explain?
[19:39] <gandhijee> is it safe to install debian packages on ubuntu?
[19:39] <rinku_kokiri> ActionParsnip:~# heh.. compaq don't let you do such things
[19:39] <Guest25127> @holmser, simply go into the flash drive directory and md5 it from there
[19:40] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ I see Apply All Oerations under the Edit tab
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> holmser: when the usb starts to boot, press spacebar and select the test usb consistancy, also test ram
[19:40] <rinku_kokiri> Stereocaulon:~# so you mean it's trying to use the onboard hw and segfaults?
[19:40] <holmser> thanks ActionParsnip
[19:40] <arkanabar> Quagmire, that's the one.  You'll get a warning, cos that is what is going to wipe out WinXP.  You've just been setting up instructions so far.
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: have you tried removing the creative and just using the onboard to see if its the card at fault
[19:40] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, right, that maybe the case.
[19:40] <tripelb> hi-hi. I want to download hulu
[19:40] <Guest25127> @gandhijee, I generally do and it hasn't caused me any problems yet though YMMV
[19:40] <rinku_kokiri> ActionParsnip:~# that is not an option...
[19:41] <gandhijee> Guest25127: thanks
[19:41] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ 	It is shrinking
[19:41] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: its worth a try to test
[19:41] <rinku_kokiri> ActionParsnip:~# and i use the creative card in windows just fine
[19:41] <tripelb> hi-hi. I want to download a hulu video. 10.04
[19:41] <gandhijee> next question, how do i increase the cache limit?
[19:41] <arkanabar> Quagmire, let it finish, quit out of it, and then run the installer.
[19:41] <Guest25127> What cache?
[19:41] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: windows has different support and is a completely different OS
[19:41] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ 	It is finished and it labeled it sda3 9.84gb
[19:41] <gandhijee> cache for apt
[19:41] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, Actually ActionParsnip is making a very good point there. Have you tried it?
[19:42] <rinku_kokiri> ActionParsnip:~# ok.. it works in OLDER versions of ubuntu as well
[19:42] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ so now what
[19:42] <gandhijee> i am trying to add debian sid repo to my ubuntu
[19:42] <erUSUL> gandhijee: not a good idea
[19:42] <Guest25127> @gandhijee, not sure so I'll keep quiet
[19:42] <gandhijee> and its yelling at me to increase the Cache-Limit
[19:42] <ActionParsnip> gandhijee: it will use as much space as you have partition space
[19:42] <arkanabar> Quagmire, run the installer.  it doesn't get tricky till you get to disk allocation/partitioning.
[19:42] <arkanabar> Quagmire, let me know when you get there.
[19:42] <gandhijee> hmm... i need to pull zeromq from debian unstable. whats the best way?
[19:42] <ieri> Alright, when I tried to install without the boot loader (Ubuntu 10.04), it crashes at about the same spot, but with a different error: "Ubiquity crashed with IOerror in remove_extras()"
[19:42] <Darael> My nm-applet disappears several times a day.  Running from a terminal reveals that something is sending it sigterm (well, it says signal 15).  Can I find out what's sending it the signal and/or is this a known issue?
[19:43] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ so reboot to get to the installer
[19:43] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: is there a bug logged for this? Have you tried compiling alsa? Do your alsa tools and alsa driver match?
[19:43] <rinku_kokiri> so i'm to uninstall my working card, to try and use my non-working onboard card ...
[19:43] <velociostrich> Anyone know how to enable subpixel rendering support in firefox?
[19:43] <pwnt> Stereocaulon: I'm using 10.10, and still getting problems while updating or installing drivers, for example now I'm installing drivers, wireless + graphic card, but look I get this error
[19:43] <ActionParsnip> gandhijee: mixing debian debs with ubuntu is not advised or supported
[19:43] <arkanabar> Quagmire, no, if you're running the 10.04 live cd as your OS, there should be an icon in the UL corner of your desktop, "Install Ubuntu" or some such.
[19:43] <pwnt> Failed to fetch http://kw.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/restricted/f/fglrx-installer/fglrx_8.780-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb Hash Sum mismatch
[19:43] <rinku_kokiri> ActionParsnip:~# i ran ubuntu-bug sound
[19:43] <rinku_kokiri> yes
[19:43] <Stereocaulon> gandhijee, Ubuntu and sid can have different directory locations and some packages might differ a bit when it comes to dependencies. Installing debian packages on top of ubuntu packages might break existing Ubuntu packages
[19:43] <Sinnes> Hello. I'm trying to install ubuntu-10.10-desktop-amd64 (have tried the i386 version also), but i get some errors. Seems to be related to keyboard/mouse so i've tried a couple of USB keyboards and mouses. None work. Errors: "floppy0: floppy timeout called" "end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0" "usbhid:4-2:1.1: couldn't find an input interrupt endpoint"
[19:43] <rinku_kokiri> ActionParsnip:~# no i haven't compiled anything, because i didn't know it was an option.
[19:43] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ got it, doing it
[19:44] <Sinnes> These errors appear just after it boots to installer and the ubuntu logo appears
[19:44] <rinku_kokiri> and what about alas tools and driver matching??
[19:44] <Guest25127> @ActionParsnip, @gandhijee - yeah, but everyone does it with, usually, no ill effects!
[19:44] <gandhijee> whats the quickest easiest way to build a deb that i can move then?
[19:44] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: did you run the script from the alsa site to make sure the driver and tools were the same version and at the .23 version?
[19:44] <gandhijee> i know what i am installing won't break anything thats already one the system
[19:44] <mngrif> how do i change runlevels?
[19:44] <Stereocaulon> pwnt, could you please repeat the error you get? (if it's longer than one line, please provide a suitable link ta a pastebin)
[19:45] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ Ok, I'm at the Prepare disk space section
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: its outlined in the sound troubleshooting doc in the official docs
[19:45] <Stereocaulon> pwnt, ta => to
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> !runlevel | mngrif
[19:45] <arkanabar> Quagmire, "Choose partitions manually."
[19:45] <erUSUL> mngrif: at runtime?
[19:45] <pwnt> Stereocaulon: you want the error from driver install, or from apt-get update?
[19:45] <rinku_kokiri> ActionParsnip:~# you mean  wget http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh -O alsa-info.sh && bash alsa-info.sh
[19:45] <rinku_kokiri> ?
[19:45] <mngrif> erUSUL: while running
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: yes
[19:45] <rinku_kokiri> http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=694f18a2e60ee6f5f0c2fde66b8f951da5653f5c
[19:45] <tony_> Hello, my external speakers did not work, but I tweaked with HDA-Analyzer and found that by unmuting two things (in Node[0x0c]) get my external speakers to work. But how can I make this change permanent?
[19:45] <erUSUL> mngrif: telinit; or init ?
[19:45] <tony_> Because everytime I reboot I have to run HDA-Analyzer and change it again and again.
[19:45] <Stereocaulon> pwnt, anything that's relevant to the the malfunction you are experiencing.
[19:46] <pwnt> Stereocaulon: Failed to fetch http://kw.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/restricted/f/fglrx-installer/fglrx_8.780-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb Hash Sum mismatch
[19:46] <mngrif> need to drop to single user so i can add a drive to my raid, 'init 1' doesn't work as expected...
[19:46] <pwnt> Stereocaulon: that while trying to install graphic card
[19:46] <erUSUL> mngrif: try telinit then
[19:46] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ I take it that I will be placing the install in the sda1 (ntfs) slot?
[19:46] <mngrif> erUSUL: yup that's it. thank you.
[19:46] <erUSUL> mngrif: ubuntu uses upstart; dunno how well it handles this
[19:46] <arkanabar> Quagmire, that will be root.  Format it ext3, ext4, or whatever you prefer.
[19:47] <mngrif> i should hope that the provided mechanism to change runlevels, you know, actually changes runlevels...
[19:47] <Stereocaulon> pwnt, that error means that the package it's trying to get is damaged or not in a form that the installer expects it's to be.
[19:47] <rinku_kokiri> ActionParsnip:~# http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=694f18a2e60ee6f5f0c2fde66b8f951da5653f5c
[19:47] <arkanabar> Quagmire, you will ALSO select sda3, and set it to /home
[19:47] <Darael> erUSUL, mngrif: AIUI, upstart is still running in init-emulation mode, so runlevels are still implemented.
[19:47] <Quagmire> Please remember that I sized the XP partition from the empty end of the space, so XP is still listed intact
[19:47] <erUSUL> Darael: noted
[19:47] <meatbun> anyone got prob upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10 via that guku-thingy?
[19:47] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: my sound troubleshooting ability is limited as I don't get sound issues. If you search for: alsa ppa unstable ,a guy compiles the 1.0.23 alsa and may have a later build and may fix things, otherwise all I can suggest is compile alsa yourself
[19:48] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ I need to make sure I understand you exactly
[19:48] <ActionParsnip> mngrif: use bum and you can modify boot but runlevel doesn't mean much
[19:48] <erUSUL> rinku_kokiri: what about linux-backports-modules-alsa-lucid-generic ( or maverick )
[19:48] <pwnt> Stereocaulon: then how can I install my grapphic card
[19:48] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: I always use the server method
[19:49] <meatbun> ActionParsnip, what is the server method?
[19:49] <alienmindtrick> i'm having trouble with my Gnome menus, specifically the 'Places' menu.  anyone know how i can fix the icons so that they work when i click them?  i mean the icons inside the 'Places' menu - Home Folder, Documents, Downloads, etc
[19:49] <Guest25127> @meatbun have just upgraded two machines from 10.04 to 10.10 - smooth as an android's bottom - Simples!
[19:49] <arkanabar> Quagmire, if I recall correctly, you select a partition and select "Change" which opens a dialog box
[19:49] <meatbun> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MaverickUpgrades i am looking at this
[19:49] <ieri> Should I take everyone's silence on my issue to mean that I've gone outside your knowledge base on this one, or did I just miss a response?
[19:49] <ActionParsnip> pwnt: run: sudo lshw -C display ,websearch for the product line
[19:49] <pwnt> Stereocaulon: what about this error on the 'sudo apt-get update' http://pastebin.com/aKHvWyRv
[19:49] <arkanabar> that box has options for resizing (we'll skip that) and using the partition, a popup menu.
[19:49] <Guest25127> @ieri didn't spot your question ...
[19:50] <linuzo> @alienmindtrick Can you run Nautalis from terminal?
[19:50] <arkanabar> when you choose sda1, select "/" as its use, and tick the "format" box, that should enable another popup menu, to let you choose file system
[19:50] <pirx> hello! i have installed ubuntu server, and all seems to work fine. then i edited /etc/sudoers, and apparently make some error there. so i cant sudo anymore:) well, does anyone possibly know of a way to edit the sudoers file, and somehow bypassing having to use "sudo"? my user is in the admin group. unfortunately i didnt set a root passwd in time...
[19:50] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: check the link you pasted and scroll down a bit, outside your knowledge? Its editting a text file and running 2 commands, all explained for you. How is that hard?
[19:50] <falloree> ieri: it often takes a while to get a response, i would take your time
[19:50] <tony_> Hello, my external speakers did not work, but I tweaked with HDA-Analyzer and found that by unmuting two things (in Node[0x0c]) get my external speakers to work. But how can I make this change permanent?
[19:50] <tony_> Because everytime I reboot I have to run HDA-Analyzer and change it again and again.
[19:50] <erUSUL> pirx: boot into recovery mode
[19:51] <alienmindtrick> @linuzo i'm not sure what nautilus is
[19:51] <Stereocaulon> pwnt, to remedy the last error, just remove the install CD from valid software sources, so Ubuntu will only check online resoureces instead
[19:51] <arkanabar> Quagmire, when you choose sda3, you'll select "home" in the popup menu, but should not need to format it.
[19:51] <Darael> alienmindtrick: Nautilus is the file manager.
[19:51] <erUSUL> pirx: you used visudo to edit sudoers?
[19:51] <arkanabar> Quagmire, also select your linux swap partition, and use it as swap.
[19:51] <Stereocaulon> pwnt, sorry about my spelling, my keyboard is a bit glitched...
[19:51] <pirx> erUSUL: i will use visudo from now on:)
[19:51] <Guest25127> @pirx, if you have physical access to the console, boot into single-user mode which will give you root access
[19:51] <karthick87> How can I relabel my flash drive?
[19:51] <linuzo> @alienmindtrick nautilus is the filemanager you use in gnome.  Try opening terminal and type  nautilus
[19:51] <ieri> Guest25127 I've been here for hours working on it, trying to get 10.04 to install on my Dell Dimension 4400 - just tried reinstalling and choosing not to install a boot loader (as the earlier errors talked about ubiquity crashing while configuring the boot loader), and now I get the error: "ubiquity crashed with IOerror in remove_extras()"
[19:51] <alienmindtrick> @linuzo OK
[19:51] <erUSUL> pirx: ok ;P
[19:52] <keratacon> I've got a friend who is coming over in just a bit, I'm supposed to help him recover his Ubuntu laptop.  His battery died while he was running system update, and now his system completely freezes (totally unresponsive) at the GNOME login screen.  I'm wondering if it is possible / common to boot from a Ubuntu install CD, chroot to the hard drive's root folder and re-run aptitude.  I'm more of a linux server guy than a desktop linux
[19:52] <alienmindtrick> @linuzo done
[19:52] <pirx> the problem, its a mac mini, so i'll have to try to find one of those darn display-port adapters again...
[19:52] <pwnt> Stereocaulon: http://pastebin.com/1fYQaqG3
[19:52] <linuzo> alienmindtrick, Did it start or did you get an error?
[19:52] <alienmindtrick> @linuzo it started
[19:52] <keratacon> Or what is the preferred course of action in this situation.
[19:52] <pirx> no way of doing this without booting into recovery/singleuser?
[19:52] <erUSUL> keratacon: boot into recovery mode; choose root shell with networking and do the aptitude/apt-get commands from there
[19:52] <pwnt> Stereocaulon: don't worry about your spelling, all my installations are not cool right now, nothing is working
[19:52] <Guest25127> @ieri is 10.04 the only OS you have / want on your Dell?
[19:53] <ieri> I have tried it with 3 different hard drives in the system, and 3 different burnt copies of the CD (in case one, or two, were damaged).  I've verified the checksum on the iso I'm burning from.
[19:53] <erUSUL> keratacon: but yes; a chroot should work too
[19:53] <keratacon> erUSUL, what's the procedure for booting into recovery mode?
[19:53] <gandhijee> hey, how do i get the autobuilder system thing to make i386 packages as well?
[19:53] <Stereocaulon> pwnt, so that also means you have no network connectivity yet?
[19:53] <ieri> Guest25127: I have no other OS on it, and I want Ubuntu.  I wasn't picky about the version.  But I previously had 9.10, and had all sorts of trouble with it, so I was hoping 10.04 would be better.
[19:53] <pwnt> how come, I'm speaking to you Stereocaulon
[19:53] <erUSUL> keratacon: choose the recovery mode netry in grub menu
[19:54] <Darael> My nm-applet (the networking tray^Wnotification area icon) vanishes at seemingly random intervals.  Running it from the terminal eventually reveals that it's catching signal 15 (sigterm) from somewhere.  What do I do?
[19:54] <Stereocaulon> pwnt, true, but you could have used another computer to do that.
[19:54] <Guest25127> @ieri well, in that case, clearly you need to install a boot loader!
[19:54] <pwnt> Stereocaulon: yea, but I'm not. something is wrong, I think its my repositories\
[19:54] <ieri> Guest25127: Now that I think about it though, you could probably talk me in to just about any linux distro, so long as I could get it to serve media to my PS3, download torrents, and act as a print server for my Samsung ML-2010
[19:55] <Sinnes> Going to try fedora and see if i get the same errors
[19:55] <pwnt> Stereocaulon: how to take screenshot in ubuntu, I want to show you an image too.
[19:55] <arkanabar> keratacon, if your friend only has one OS, the grub menu may be hidden.  see http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBQQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fubuntuforums.org%2Fshowthread.php%3Ft%3D1195275&rct=j&q=%20site%3Aubuntuforums.org%20grub2%20basics&ei=lVXYTPuLN8PPnAeT1enbCQ&usg=AFQjCNHsPsdiLiSfK_ARNS8auvRfO0S4KQ&cad=rja
[19:55] <Stereocaulon> pwnt, the last error you pastebined occurs when you have two programs running simultaneously that are using your software installation sources (like Synaptic and Software chooser)
[19:55] <Darael> pwnt: printscreen key should still work, or you could do alt+f2 and enter "gnome-screenshot" (without the quotes)
[19:55] <ieri> Guest25127: Yes, I tried without the boot loader in case that was causing the problems, figuring I'd install the boot loader manually afterwards.  However, that apparently wasn't really the cause of the problem, since it's still failing when I install without a boot loader.
[19:55] <Guest25127> @ieri, trust me, I've seen a fair few distros - Ubuntu is definitely up there rocking with the best of them
[19:56] <ieri> Guest25127: That's what I thought (although I'm having second thoughts after fighting this all day and getting nowhere).
[19:56] <blakkheim> Guest25127: how so?
[19:56] <Guest25127> @ieri, if you can, try downloading and trying with 10.10
[19:57] <rinku_kokiri> maybe this is related.. a LOT of the time, when i go to the volume control to change, i gotta press mute to get the slider to register and change the volume
[19:57] <rinku_kokiri> even though it's not muted
[19:57] <Guest25127> @blakkheim, how so what?
[19:57] <ocharles> I'm having some trouble getting 10.1 to boot off USB. I made the image with usb-creator-gtk (on my laptopt) and it boots, but it just freezes at the psalsh screen
[19:57] <slide> I just started up and none of my windows have any borders or control buttons
[19:57] <ocharles> and I can't see any way to get more diagonostics
[19:57] <blakkheim> Guest25127: how do you believe it's "up there rocking with the best of them"
[19:57] <magn3ts> where has /boot/grub/stage[12] been moved to?
[19:57] <ieri> Is there a faster site to download it from than ubuntu.com?  Firefox is telling me that it's going to take 5 hours and 12 minutes to download 10.10.
[19:58] <arkanabar> magn3ts, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275 -- the Grub 2 Guide
[19:58] <blakkheim> ieri: torrents
[19:58] <Guest25127> @blakkheim, well, I've been happily using Ubuntu for years and it's very rarely given me any problems
[19:58] <arkanabar> ieri, use a torrent like transmission to download instead of direct.
[19:58] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, you are running into an ancient Alsa bug, Alsa is prone to start while muting the master channel. To fix that open up a console and type "alsamixer". If you unmute your master channel and set your desired volume there, it will be remembered, even after a reboot
[19:58] <ieri> blakkheim: I'd love to torrent, but the only working PC I have right now is my work laptop, and they have torrents locked down. :(
[19:59] <magn3ts> arkanabar, yeah, that's way more than I'm looking for and hasn't (yet) answered my relatively easy question :( thanks though
[19:59] <Quagmire> sda1 has (ntfs) listed and is 34.6gb in size. It has not been touched at this point. When I made the 10gb space I did it on the empty end of the partition, so XP is still sitting there undisturbed
[19:59] <rinku_kokiri> Stereocaulon:~# i'm not talking about "alsa mixer starting while muted"
[19:59] <ocharles> If I hit an arrow key I get to one of the ttys and it says "failed due to unknown user id (0)" but I have no idea if this is actually a problem or not

[19:59] <Guest25127> @ieri, pick a german server (if you live in Europe) and just pull it down from that Canonical mirror - much faster than torrents.
[19:59] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ I had to take a phone call, so I was away for a moment
[19:59] <arkanabar> magn3ts, it sounds like you're used to grub legacy, which has been deprecated since 10.04 at least.
[19:59] <Darael> ieri: May be marginally better if you don't mind a non-graphical install: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[19:59] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, np, it sounded awfully familiar.
[19:59] <commodor1> lol. My parents are pissed at my bandwidth addiction.

[20:00] <x_or> I broke my ubuntu installation by accidentally using a debian repo.  Is  there any way to install a complete set of apt-get packages without using apt-get, and then rebuild the system from there?  This is a network install, though I do have command line access via console to the VPS.
[20:00] <paddy_> I created a key for launchpad with gpg --gen-key but i cannot find the file i give to launchpad, the key appears in seahorse though
[20:00] <arkanabar> Quagmire, np.  how is your installation going?
[20:00] <commodor1> Use Arch Linux.
[20:00] <keratacon> erUSUL, arkanabar: Recovery mode seems to be crashing after running /scripts/init-bottom.  The keyboard has gone unresponsive.
[20:00] <x_or> Or, could I list all packages which were installed/upgraded via the debian repo, and then remove them to restart?
[20:00] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ well I'm not positive what to do next
[20:00] <mitchs> im having problem with my sound, its not working running ubunto 8.10
[20:00] <ActionParsnip> arkanabar: grub legacy is in the ludic repo so isn't depreciated and is supported as it is in the official repo
[20:00] <erUSUL> keratacon: then go the livecd+chroot route
[20:00] <velociostrich> Does anyone know how to enable ClearType (subpixel rendering) in Firefox? I've tried looking in about:config, where I found a setting (gfx.use_text_smoothing_setting) but that didn't do anything,  and I've looked under System->Preferences->Appearance under the Font tab and, yes, ClearType is enabled and works in all other applications. ClearType was working in Firefox before, but I installed KDE (ala kubuntu-desktop) and all of a sud
[20:00] <velociostrich> den it stopped working.
[20:01] <erUSUL> x_or: if you can use dpkg ....
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> mitchs: intrepid is no longer supported here dude
[20:01] <keratacon> erUSUL: is there a good guide for that?
[20:01] <holmser> doesn't bittorrent automatically verify that files that are downloaded?
[20:01] <ieri> Okay, I found a download that says it'll only take 32 minutes... is softpedia.com reliable?
[20:01] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ I am waiting for exact directions to make 100% sure I do it right
[20:01] <Darael> x_or: Don't know about listing the ones from the debian repo (you could see if aptitude still works?" but you can remove them with dpkg directly...
[20:01] <Stereocaulon> mitchs, that's ancient history, please upgrade
[20:01] <erUSUL> !chroot
[20:01] <mitchs> im running backtrack 4
[20:01] <Guest25127> @ieri, yes
[20:01] <rinku_kokiri> mmm
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> mitchs: backtrack isn't ubuntu. Backtrack isn't supported here
[20:01] <rinku_kokiri> replaced alsa w oss.. maybe this is the fix??
[20:02] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ sda1 is listed as 34gb with (ntfs) listed af6ter the name
[20:02] <ActionParsnip> !backtrack | mitchs
[20:02] <ieri> Good - if anyone else is looking for a quicker download, I suggest sending them there.  They seem to have more bandwidth available (which isn't surprising, since ubuntu.com must get a lot more traffic)
[20:02] <arkanabar> Quagmire, there should be a column "Mount points" or some such.  sda1 should show as  "/" -- does it?
[20:02] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ sda3 is beside it and it's 10.6gb
[20:02] <pwnt> how to force kill a window, if it doesn't close up
[20:02] <x_or> Darael, erUSUL:  I don't see a switch for listing repo in the dpkg man page, can either of you elaborate?
[20:02] <Stereocaulon> ieri, maybe you can download via http/ jigdo instead?
[20:02] <mitchs> whats the join command?
[20:02] <ActionParsnip> ieri: torrents will be faster, downloads from main server as well as peers
[20:02] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ Nothing is listed under mount point
[20:03] <Guest25127> @ieri, that's because Ubuntu is so popular that the mirrors are constantly overloaded ;-)
[20:03] <ActionParsnip> mitchs: /join #backtrack-linux
[20:03] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ That's what has me concerned
[20:03] <arkanabar> Quagmire, pick it from the list and click "Change" -- you should get a popup box.
[20:03] <mngrif> Guest25127: use torrents
[20:03] <ieri> stereocaulon: I'm not familiar with jigdo.
[20:03] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ got that opened, now what
[20:04] <ieri> actionparsnip: I know, but I can't do torrents right now because I'm using my work laptop, and they have those locked down.  I'm sure I could get around that restriction, but would rather not endanger my job over it.
[20:04] <arkanabar> Quagmire, there should be a popup menu, "Use this partition" or some such -- pop it open, and select "/" (without quotes)
[20:04] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ got edit partition opened
[20:04] <erUSUL> x_or: dpkg can only work with deb files. it has no notion of repositories. so it would be painfull to work with it
[20:04] <Stereocaulon> ieri, jigdo is an alternative to Bittorrent, used primarily to distribute Debian when Torrents are unavailable or unuseable.
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> ieri: then wait you must :(
[20:04] <meatbun> any noticeable diff between 10.04 and 10.10?
[20:04] <meatbun> GUI looks the same
[20:04] <blakkheim> meatbun: stability
[20:04] <frold> In ubuntu - howto get desktop info about the usage of ram, cpu, temp etc?
[20:04] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ there is no / option
[20:05] <Darael> My nm-applet keeps dying, claiming to have caught signal 15 from somewhere (doesn't say where...) - what can I do?
[20:05] <arkanabar> Quagmire, what options do you have?
[20:05] <mngrif> blakkheim: yeah but in which direction?
[20:05] <rinku_kokiri> meatbun:~# the month it was released xD
[20:05] <Guest25127> @ActionParsnip, @mngrif Torrents aren't faster for me given that I can pull a new image down at the saturation speed of my connection
[20:05] <Quagmire> I see lots of other options, but not that one
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: newer versions of stuff and little ui tweaks
[20:05] <milen8204> i have problem whit comand say anyone can help?
[20:05]  * mngrif wonders when IRC turned in to @twitter
[20:05] <rinku_kokiri> YAY, i'm halfway through the video and it's not breaking yet XD
[20:05] <Guest25127> @frold, "cd /proc"
[20:05] <meatbun> blakkheim, maybe i wait a little longer
[20:05] <blakkheim> mngrif: 10.04 is more stable imo
[20:05] <Guest25127> @frold, then "cat cpuinfo" etc.
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> Guest25127: torrents more consistant for me but I guess it depends on location
[20:05] <Stereocaulon> ieri, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jigdo
[20:06] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ ext4, ext3 ext2 Reiser JFS XFS FAT16 and FAT32 ntfs swap area
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: lucid is also supported longer
[20:06] <arkanabar> Quagmire, is that the only popup menu in the dialog box?
[20:06] <pwnt> how to force kill a window in gnome
[20:06] <meatbun> ActionParsnip, yeah. ... 5 + years i think
[20:07] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ yep
[20:07] <dksoba2010> how can I reinstall a package I have already installed? I think one of the configuration files got messed up but not sure.
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> pwnt: press alt+f2 and run: xkill then click the app
[20:07] <greetzfromme> hi all, sorry to say this, but I need the proprietary java from java.com, I currently have openjdk, how can i nicely replace it?
[20:07] <Stereocaulon> pwnt, just use xkill and point to the offending window >Zap!<
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> !lts | meatbun
[20:07] <rinku_kokiri> so is gconf-editor user specific??
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: yes
[20:07] <Guest25127> @pwnt, open a terminal, "ps aux | grep programname", then do a "kill -9 programprocessnumber"
[20:07] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, it is user specific yes
[20:07] <rinku_kokiri> kk
[20:07] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ remember me talking about how I made the change to thast partition by going on the right side of the XP partition
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: hmm if you logon as a different user, is the sound issue identical?
[20:08] <Quagmire> XP hasn't been touched at this point
[20:08] <rinku_kokiri> cause i think i solved it .. replace alsasink with osssink
[20:08] <meatbun> ActionParsnip, only reason i am thinking of upgrade is my eth0 is not working correctly
[20:08] <rinku_kokiri> yeah
[20:08] <arkanabar> Quagmire, been forever since I had to get rid of windows.  If you choose "ext3" or "ext4" does it enable a 2d popup?
[20:08] <Manuel__> i just installed graphics drivers and now i get a black screen with some words and wont boot into ubuntu.... how do i uninstall the driver if i cant get into the OS?
[20:08] <shebang_wafflesa> This issue seems to come up so much that it belongs in a FAQ http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/kill-process-in-linux-or-terminate-a-process-in-unix-or-linux-systems/
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: sweet, test like crazy then spread the word wherever you have found people with the same issue but with no answer
[20:08] <meatbun> ActionParsnip, think the cdrw i used was a bad burn for 10.04 but still installed anyway x(
[20:09] <Stereocaulon> Manuel__, that black screen with letters is the OS, just not graphically.
[20:09] <rinku_kokiri> ActionParsnip:~# like i said, THINK i've solved it.. will wait  24 hrs and see.. :D
[20:09] <ActionParsnip> meatbun: there is a checker on the cd to check itself
[20:09] <Stereocaulon> Manuel__, what make and model of Video card do you have?
[20:09] <Guest25127> @meatbun, Ubuntu *just knows* what it wants to be! ;-)
[20:09] <ActionParsnip> rinku_kokiri: oh totally. Hope its good :)
[20:10] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ Ok THAT got me some progress
[20:10] <azeerrty> well i try to compile printer driver on my pc
[20:10] <Manuel__> Acer 3820tg with a ATI 4650 hd
[20:10] <Guest25127> scary
[20:10] <azeerrty> it ask me to download glib but glib not find on repository what to do ?
[20:11] <user38> trying to do a fresh install of 10.10, but as soon as I put the CD in and start up, I get an error saying "general error mounting filesystems"
[20:11] <user38> the md5 of my iso is right, and I had the CD verify when I burnt it
[20:11] <linuzo> @azeerrty - try glibc
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> user38: did you md5 test the iso you burned? Did you burn slowly? Did youcheck the cd for defects once. First booted to?
[20:11] <meatbun> i already upgrade via the network couple times. i think i will skip on this one. Guest19671 ActionParsnip
[20:12] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ I chose EXT4 and then checked the Format the Partition button and picked / for the mount point
[20:12] <linuzo> @azeerrty, actually just do this   -  sudo apt-get install build-essentials libglib2.0-0 libglib2.0-0-dev
[20:12] <Stereocaulon> Manuel__, in that case you'll want to install the fglx package, just use this on the command-line: sudo apt-get install fglx
[20:12] <user38> I burnt with nero at 8, and it verified successfully
[20:12] <user38> 8x *
[20:12] <user38> and yes, the md5 of my iso is correct
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> user38: boot to the cd. Where you see the stickman, press space and check the cd for defects there
[20:12] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ I assume I have things ready to begin the format of the 34gb XP partition?
[20:12] <Guest25127> @azeerrty, it's listed under libglib in the repositories
[20:13] <user38> I didn't see a stickman
[20:13] <duffydack> Manuel__, I have a ati 4650, works perfect, out of the box.. and also with fglrx
[20:13] <user38> I saw the ubuntu logo and then it dropped to a shell with "general error mounting filesystems"
[20:13] <Manuel__> Stereocaulon>when i didnt install the drivers it was booting fine. When i DID install the drivers, that's when it had gone wrong.... i think i want to uninstall them
[20:13] <ActionParsnip> user38: then test your ram, basically as soon as the cd starts to boot, press space
[20:13] <user38> ok, trying that
[20:13] <Manuel__> duffydack> so how do i uninstall the driver?
[20:13] <Stereocaulon> Manuel__, in that case, type: sudo apt-get remove fglx
[20:14] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ I knocked that out, now what is the next part I need to do
[20:14] <intick> user38: +1 for memory test
[20:14] <Manuel__> Stereocaulon>i cant get into ubuntu.....
[20:14] <Manuel__> Stereocaulon>i get stuck on the post screen with some postscreen info
[20:14] <Stereocaulon> Manuel__, you are already in Ubuntu, just not the graphical shell, that's called X (and GNOME running on to of that)
[20:15] <Manuel__> Stereocaulon>i cant type anything
[20:15] <duffydack> Manuel__, sudo apt-get remove --purge fglrx
[20:15] <Stereocaulon> Manuel__, in that case, what are the last words that *do* show up on the screen?
[20:15] <darael> My nm-applet keeps vanishing.  I ran it from the terminal, and discovered that something is sending signal 15 (that's sigterm, I think) - how can I stop it?  Should I just move to wicd instead of network-manager and have done with it?
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> Manuel__: if your system fails post it sounds like a hardware issue
[20:15] <arkanabar> Quagmire, you also need to select the 10gb partition, and set it up to use as /home
[20:16] <duffydack> Manuel__, boot to safe mode and drop to a cli prompt.
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> darael: wicd is sweeeet
[20:16] <intick> hi could you tel how to configure vino server (defaut remote control in ubuntu) to accept remote control from internet ?
[20:17] <darael> ActionParsnip: I know, I would have moved before but I figured it was generally a good idea to stick with nm as long as it worked.  Or something.
[20:17] <intick> it works fine in my lan but cant find how to congure the port in the server
[20:17] <Stereocaulon> intick, just go to System => Preferences, Remote Desktop and enable remote access there
[20:18] <Manuel__> Stereocaulon>just tried to boot in recover mode and then it goes to boot screen or cmd prompt.... not sure what it is called and the last line is "manuel-Aspire-3820 login:"
[20:18] <scampbell> does anyone here have the iptables tarpit running in 10.10?
[20:19] <Stereocaulon> Manuel__, it sounds like you have a keyboard malfunction, does hitting NumLock switch the status of your NumLock led?
[20:19] <intick> Stereocaulon: thx i remember i've already gone to this long time ago :D thx anyway you helped me ;)
[20:19] <Stereocaulon> intick, np, glad to help :-)
[20:20] <Manuel__> lol its not a keyboard malfunction
[20:20] <intick> Stereocaulon: but we cant configure a port there .. i'll test from internet
[20:20] <irule> installed ubuntu maverick, cloned and one of the clones booted a couple times and then it wont boot, it says "no init found" how may I fix this? thanks!
[20:20] <Stereocaulon> intick, the standard port is 5900
[20:20] <intick> Stereocaulon: with VNC i had to put my ports (aleady forwarded on my router)
[20:21] <Manuel__> i just told you i installed gfx drivers and now it wont boot into ubuntu.... how do i uinstall the drivers when i cant get into the OS
[20:21] <intick> Stereocaulon: yep i used 5905 for comp <IP_ADDRESS> ect .. what if i have many computers to be controled from internet ?
[20:22] <Stereocaulon> Manuel__, the "boot prompt" you get, is actually a login prompt from Ubuntu, if you can't type anything there, I have hard time not thinking of a keyboard malfunction.
[20:22] <snail> i'm looking for a tool that will let me script a flash application running within firefox. any ideas?
i typed in my password and it just keeps asking for it over and over again
[20:23] <Stereocaulon> intick, some routers allow a port forward between LAN and WAN with different NAT-translation, like LAN:WAN 5900(<IP_ADDRESS>):5905
well i just used the recovery mode and low graphics option to get into ubuntu.... ill be uinstalling the drivers now
[20:23] <Stereocaulon> Manuel__, so you *can* type your username, but it won't accept your password...ah, that's it.
[20:23] <intick> Stereocaulon: kk i'll give it a try
[20:24] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ Have you returned yet?
[20:25] <arkanabar> Quagmire, yes I have.  How's it going?
it says login:         so i thought i had to type in my pw wtf
 who designs this crap lol
[20:25] <BlackCoffee> hello...i want to update my system ,i actually run linux mint isadora...but i keep getting the "broken package" error...and there doesn't seem to be any broken packages,i checked on synaptic and all
[20:25] <snail> Manuel__ you need to type in your username and then your password
[20:25] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ I want to make sure I pick the right choice.
[20:25] <siddhion> how come System Monitor shows my CPU reaching 100% everytime I start my web browser and/or load a web page from that browser? is this normal?
[20:25] <Manuel__> snail> oh lol
[20:25] <Stereocaulon> Manuel__, snail hit the nail on the head there
[20:25] <snail> Manuel__ you also need to be aware that the language setting for the console may be different to that within X
 you need to be more eloquent in giving answers
[20:26] <Quagmire> Under Use As ....can I also choose the same ext4 as the root went in?
[20:26] <ppd> hi, I wondered whether anyone could help me with my acer travelmate 8372tg. It has an integrated intel graphics card and a nvidia dedicated card. I do not use the nvidia but the intel. However I am not able to switch to a console with ctrl+alt+f1. It just displays the frozen x screen without the mouse cursor. switching back to x does work though. Do you have any suggestions how I can switch to the console?
[20:26] <Guest25127> @siddhion, don't worry about it
[20:26] <Stereocaulon> siddhion, that's not normal, unless you are using an extremely weak configuration
[20:26] <root> a
[20:26] <root> name ivo
, snail> well i got into ubuntu through recovery mode with low graphics mode and i uinstalled the ati prprietary drivers. thanks for the help
[20:26] <arkanabar> Quagmire, the list should show sda1 with mount point / and sda3 with mount point /home -- does it?
[20:26] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ There are only two ext's slots one is 4 and one is 3 ...both of them are already being used
[20:26] <tripelb> "network connections" does not tell me y IP address. What will?
[20:27] <rinku_kokiri> Well No segfault, but problem still exists
[20:27] <snail> tripelb: "ifconfig"
[20:27] <siddhion> Stereocaulon, ok, what configuration are you talking about? and how do i make it strong?
[20:27] <kxsteve> is there something int apt that does what `yum provides */bin/sendmail` would do?
[20:27] <tripelb> o ty
[20:27] <Guest25127> @tripelb, ifconfig
[20:27] <Stereocaulon> Manuel__, I can only be "eloquent" if you give me a full description of the problem you are having.
[20:27] <Guest18630> how do i change resolution?
 lol
[20:27] <siddhion> Guest25127, i worry because everytime CPU reaches 100% my fan spins louder and faster
[20:28] <Slartibart> Hi. I seem to be getting "sh: env: Permission denied" a lot here, anyone here knows how to fix?
[20:28] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ No I will need to pick something under "Use As" before I can get to the choice of making a Mount point
[20:28] <pwnt> I keep getting these type of errors whenever I try to install stuff, :( . http://pastebin.com/j59tgnik
[20:28] <greetzfromme> hi all, i removed openjdk, installed the version from java.com, but now when i verify it, it doesn't recognize it
[20:28] <Guest25127> @siddhion, that's what the fan's there for ;-)
[20:28] <tripelb> so my inet address under eth0 is my IP address?
[20:28] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ Does it make sense what I'm saying?
[20:29] <tripelb> so my inet address under eth0 is my IP address? snail Guest19671
[20:29] <Darael> kxsteve: dpkg --search (I don' know yum, so that may not be right, but it seems likely)
[20:29] <Guest25127> @tripelb, each of your interfaces will have a separate IP address
[20:29] <arkanabar> Quagmire, ok.  pick sda1 ... for "use as" ext3 or ext4 is fine.  either works great.  ext3 is much more mature, ext4 has support for files bigger than your entire HD.
[20:29] <snail>  tripelb: indeed
[20:29] <Stereocaulon> siddhion, With "weak configuration" I mean a system that is not designed to run the browser you are using. I.e if you would try to run Firefox 3.6 on a Pentium 3 450, it will take ages to start, beacuse it's constantly swapping due to lack of memory and CPU power
[20:29] <Kangarooo> hello. something happened with cd rom its not anymore working. in /media/ ls /media$ ls floppy  floppy0  lost.s02e9-10RUS  NEW
[20:29] <linuzo> pwnt, try changing your repository
[20:29] <rinku_kokiri> Stereocaulon:~# well i replaced alsasink with osssink in gconf-editor.. it *worked* for about 30 mins.. (three youtube videos) before breaking this time
[20:29] <tripelb> each of my interfaces? huh. I am ethernet to modem.
[20:29] <kxsteve> Darael:  `yum provides */bin/sendmail` will show which package contains */bin/sendmail
[20:29]  * blueghost test
[20:30] <Guest25127> @tripelb, so, e.g., eth0 will have one IP address, whereas wlan0 will have a different one etc.
[20:30] <pwnt> linuzo: yes, thats exactly what I need, i'm pretty new can you assist me with this please
[20:30] <arkanabar> Quagmire, once you've selected the file system type, select the mount point, which you want to be /
[20:30] <rinku_kokiri> Stereocaulon:~# thinking i'm either going to go back to a version of ubuntu that WORKS or back to Windows
[20:30] <Darael> kxsteve: Then you either want dpkg --search or apt-file (you'll need to install the latter) - the latter will give the package even if it's not installed.
[20:30] <greetzfromme> Hi, I installed the proprietary Java, I now have a jre folder in my home folder, what else do i have to do?
[20:30] <Pici> kxsteve: dpkg -S /path/to/file
[20:30] <linuzo> pwnt, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[20:30] <Guest25127> @tripelb, ethernet to modem? Do you mean ADSL modem?
[20:30]  * rinku_kokiri wishes things just worked like they say they do on the website
[20:30] <siddhion> Stereocaulon, I see. I am using the latest Chromium build so I assume that is ok. Right?
[20:30] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, it sounds like the SBLive! driver is not working properly.
[20:30] <arkanabar> once you have done that with sda1, do it again with sda3, only the mount point should be /home
[20:31] <Pici> kxsteve: or install apt-file and then run sudo apt-file update to search for files in uninstalled packages.
[20:31] <rinku_kokiri> Stereocaulon:~# i'm wondering if i switch over to the other card, if it'll happen as well
[20:31] <Brad_PJ> greetzfromme, have you just downloaded it off the java website? or extracted into your homefolder?
[20:31] <pwnt> linuzo: I went there after i installed ubuntu and thats why I am where I'm right now :(
[20:31] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ So make the other one sda3 as /home? right?
[20:31] <pwnt> think i messed up
[20:31] <Guest25127> @tripelb, if you mean the latter (i.e., ADSL modem), you need to login to your ADSL modem / router and find out what the WAN IP address is set to
[20:31] <arkanabar> Quagmire, yes.  btw, is there an sda2 in the list, anywhere at all?
[20:31] <Meiki> join #freiburg
[20:32] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, It just depends how well that other soundcard is supported in the Linux kernel version you are using.
[20:32] <greetzfromme> Brad_PJ,  it's extracted in my home folder
[20:32] <Brad_PJ> greetzfrommer, what browser are you using? you have to make a symbollic link from the java plugin to your brower
[20:32] <Brad_PJ> greetzfromme*
[20:33] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ No I see no mention of sda2
[20:33] <greetzfromme> Brad_PJ,  chrome
[20:33] <ieri> Okay, this one's new:  Input/Output Error During write on /dev/sda - got that right after I told the installer how to partition the drives.  I hit cancel, but the installer seems to be continuing (I assumed cancel would abort the install)
[20:33] <greetzfromme> Brad_PJ,  chrome and chromium actually
[20:33] <arkanabar> Quagmire, cool.  once you have sda1 and sda3 set up, move forward with the install.
[20:33] <w1zkid> goodmorning vietnam
[20:33] <rinku_kokiri> I just really hate to do it this way, cause it's either too quiet (small speakers) or only one channel (broken speakers)
[20:33] <ieri> Or maybe it's not continuing, it looks like it's just hanging there at 5%.
[20:34] <Brad_PJ> alright, i'll set it up for chromium for now, not sure with chrome
[20:34] <Brad_PJ> in terminal, navigate to /usr/lib/chromium/plugins
[20:34] <greetzfromme> hold on
[20:34] <figueroa> can anyone tell me how to scan windows for virus/spyware from linux installed with wubi?
[20:35] <Stereocaulon> figueroa, just do a scan using ClamAV on the drive containing Windows
[20:35] <figueroa> but it doesnt show the drive in mycomputer
[20:36] <greetzfromme> Brad_PJ,  let's pm?
[20:36] <Darael> Stereocaulon, figueroa: It can be a little more complex with WUBI.
[20:36] <figueroa> Darael, any advice?
[20:36] <Brad_PJ> haha sure
[20:36] <siddhion> Stereocaulon, you said my CPU going to 100% is not normal if I am using a proper browser which I am so do you have any other idea why this is happening?
[20:36] <Stereocaulon> Darael, ok, I didn't know that, not familiar with wubi
[20:36] <figueroa> im trying to not have to reinstall windows
[20:36] <Brad_PJ> not sure how to, haven't used irc in ages :)
[20:36] <ieri> ieri: Does that input/output error mean I have a bad hard drive?
[20:36] <Slartibart> Hi. I seem to be getting "sh: env: Permission denied" a lot here, anyone here knows how to fix? /usr/bin/env exists(644), but how do I even know if that's the one that's fuzzing??
[20:36] <Darael> figueroa: If you run "mount" in a terminal (without the quotes), it should show you what device the image containing WUBI is on.
[20:36] <ieri> (oops, didn't mean to talk to myself)
[20:36] <timo> Slartibart: /usb/bin/env should be mode 755
[20:36] <figueroa> Darael, then?
[20:37] <timo> Slartibart: that is, executable
[20:37] <Stereocaulon> siddhion, what CPU do you have and how much RAM memory do you have?
[20:37] <Darael> figueroa: Once you have that, you can mount the parent device, which is also the Windows drive.
[20:37] <blakkheim> Stereocaulon: "RAM memory"? random access memory memory?
[20:37] <rinku_kokiri> siddhion:~# and what's consuming the most memory if you issue the 'top' command
[20:38] <figueroa> Darael, i thought u couldnt scan windows if linux was installed with wubi?
[20:38] <Stereocaulon> blakkheim, yes, I mean RAM as in Random Access Memory, why?
[20:38] <rinku_kokiri> siddhion:~# s/memory/cpu/
[20:38] <Slartibart> timo: Thanks! Suspect the harddisk trouble I had before is the cause of this, so is there a package or something that I should reinstall to fix this? Or is chmod the way to go?
[20:38] <Darael> figueroa: That would be done by (eg) "sudo mount /dev/sd<whatever> /mnt" (/mnt being as good a temporary mount point as any) and then use clam to scan it.  Just make sure it excludes the image used for Ubuntu's root.
[20:38] <arkanabar> Quagmire, let me know when your installation is finished & you have booted into 10.04 from the hard disk.
[20:38] <figueroa> kthx
[20:38] <Darael> figueroa: Should be fine, as long as it doesn't try to scan the Wubi disk image.
[20:38] <timo> Slartibart: chmod is fine, unless you suspect the file (or other files, too) is damaged
[20:38] <blakkheim> Stereocaulon: saying "ram memory" is redundant
[20:38] <figueroa> thank you thank you
[20:39] <rinku_kokiri> random access memory memory
[20:39] <rinku_kokiri> like the master card card
[20:39] <timo> Slartibart: reinstalling coreutils should fix the env binary
[20:39] <rinku_kokiri> or the two girls one cup cup
[20:39] <rinku_kokiri> clear
[20:39] <Stereocaulon> blakkheim, yes it is redundant, but some people still think that HDD's belong to "memory" as well.
[20:39] <siddhion> Stereocaulon, Intel Core 2 Duo T6400, 4gig sdram
[20:39] <sandking_> how to check which libgettextlib i have from terminal?
[20:40] <ss0> i can't get apache to display php rather than offer it for download, can anyone help?
[20:40] <Slartibart> timo: "bash: /usr/bin/env: can't run binary file" =[. Reinstall next. Big thanks again!
[20:40] <blakkheim> Stereocaulon: so correct them instead of carrying on the wrong terms
[20:40] <timo> Slartibart: np
[20:41] <rinku_kokiri> Stereocaulon:~# blakkheim i know people that think the hard drive is the tower
[20:41] <Stereocaulon> blakkheim, there is also ROM
[20:41] <rinku_kokiri> you mean you're going to take the whole hard drive?
[20:41] <rinku_kokiri> lol
[20:41] <Guest25127> @Stereocaulon, terms such as "ramdisk" probably didn't help the confusion ...
[20:41] <rinku_kokiri> or ramdrive
[20:41] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, yes, well, if your computer is heavy, it can indeed be a "hard drive" to get your computer from A to B :-P
[20:41] <rinku_kokiri> yeah i got a 4 gig portable ramdrive
[20:42] <rinku_kokiri> lol
[20:42] <Guest25127> My "SO" constantly confuses RAM with HDD ... :-D
[20:43] <siddhion> rinku_kokiri, top shows that npviewer.bin is taking up 16% of the CPU, what is npviewer.bin and is it necessary?
[20:43] <rinku_kokiri> and when you ask if they need more memory, they get offended... xD
[20:43] <ieri> I just noticed that these ISO files are more than 700 meg (according to windows explorer anyway) - but my CDs say they're 700 megs... could I be getting bad CDs due to overburning?
[20:43] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, yes, especially the elderly, lol

[20:44] <rinku_kokiri> That's an Adobe issue which they seem reluctant to do anything about.
[20:44] <rinku_kokiri> ^^ ain't that always the case though ;)
[20:45] <Guest25127> .. well, it'd help if some of my Mac-using friends had worked out that their Mac hasn't "died" - it's simply that they've opened 19 simultaneous sessions of PhotoShop without having bothered to close any and then wonder why their Mac's ground to a halt as it's desperately thrashing the HDD searching for swap space ... :-D
[20:45] <ieri> rinku_kokiri I think you were responding to someone else, not me.  I was asking about ISO file sizes being over 700 meg, and whether that would cause problems burning to a 700 meg CD.
[20:45] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, sigh, Adobe Flash...yawn. By the time they have a good working Flash plugin for linux, Flash will aready be obsolete.
[20:45] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ I'm closing in on the finish of the install
[20:45] <ieri> Stereocaulon: Flash isn't obsolete?

[20:46] <ss0> On a fresh install of ubuntu via apt, php files don't render I have everything that the various threads on the forums said to make sure was installed. I cleared my firefox cache can anyone point me in the right direction?
[20:46] <Quagmire> ~[ arkanabar ]~ It asked if I want to use the info from 9.04, so that made me smile
[20:46] <arkanabar> Quagmire, cool.  you do, btw.  let me know when you've booted into it.
[20:46] <arkanabar> you're about to learn to use fstab.
[20:47] <Guest25127> @ss0, I think you need to start with the Apache docs
[20:47] <jamesstanley> Ah, if I install libnotify-bin, I get a program "notify-send" which can be used to send messages.
[20:47] <Stereocaulon> Guest19671, yes those Mac users who generally have too much money and not enough time to read even a single sheet of A4 paper before turing on their computer...

[20:49] <rinku_kokiri> siddhion:~# flash is ALWAYS a problem
[20:49] <ss0> Guest25127:  Thanks for the suggestion the problem is it appears to be enabled according to the apache docs, it's loaded, all the files are in place but it's still not working. Thus the irc plea.
[20:50] <siddhion> rinku_kokiri, what is the safest way to end a process: Stop, Kill or End?
[20:50] <siddhion> Stereocaulon, why not switch to Chrome or Chromium?
[20:50] <Stereocaulon> siddhion, because I like my Fiefox-specific plugins...
[20:50] <siddhion> rinku_kokiri, yes in more ways than one as I have jsut found out tonight.

[20:52] <allowoverride> rinku_kokiri: doesn't killall need a pid?
[20:52] <siddhion> Stereocaulon, have you investigated all the Chrome extensions?
[20:52] <allowoverride> or is that just kill pid
[20:52] <N44m> Hi everyone, i've installed Tor and polipo but i don't know how to link them to vidalia because (i'm just starting of using Ubuntu), can someone help me ?

[20:53] <rinku_kokiri> sure
[20:53] <Stereocaulon> siddhion, no, not yet. I am quite used to all the keyboard shortcuts in FF right now, I hardly ever use my mouse anymore.

[20:55] <siddhion> Stereocaulon, thought so :) me too.  I ask because you brought up the factor of Chrome not being able to display all websites prooperly

[20:57] <Stereocaulon> siddhion, still if Chromium does recognize Shift-JIS pages flawlessly, I might use it more often. Firefox is incredibly bad at that.
[20:58] <Roasted_> Does anybody know of a way I can suck up the global address list from our exchange server and add it to thunderbird?
[20:58] <siddhion> Stereocaulon, plus Chrome is faster
[20:58] <Roasted_> I just gave up chrome yesterday for firefox :(
[20:58] <chrowe> anyone have a suggestion as to why I can't su to a new system user I created?
[20:59] <Guest25127> @Roasted_, send out a mass email and ask them all to reply back to you?
[20:59] <Roasted_> it can be such a brat with web site designing
[20:59] <chrowe> I can su from ubuntu to root and vis versa
[20:59] <Roasted_> Guest25127, lol, I thought about that. Was hoping for a more practical way :P
[20:59] <Guest25127> :-D
[20:59] <Stereocaulon> siddhion, true, but Firefox used to be very fast as well, before FF became mainstream and tried to display each page properly
[20:59] <siddhion> Stereocaulon, i never knew what shift jis was till now. interesting.
[21:00] <Stereocaulon> siddhion, Shift-JIS is a text mode for Japanese. I visit lots of Japanese sites
[21:00] <siddhion> Stereocaulon, hmm. Chrome usually does a good job. whats the % of pages that dont load properly in Chrome?
[21:00] <rinku_kokiri> siddhion, Stereocaulon:~# firefox is faster than opera now a days
[21:00] <sda_> hi all, i set gnome-panel hide on, but sometime after it goes up it doesn't go down, there is any solution? (usually i kill the panel)
[21:01] <Quagmire> Does anyone have any insight into the GLib Warning: getpwuid_r() problem I am having at boot up?
[21:01] <Stereocaulon> rinku_kokiri, true, but Opera is the best when it comes to CSS/w3c-compliancy
[21:01] <Guest25127> @Roasted_, more seriously, though I'm not familiar with exchange, first thing I'd do is check what formats you can export its data in and what formats Thunderbird can import them in - though you may need to use an intermediate format.
[21:01] <siddhion> rinku_kokiri, really. i guess that is good to know. never thought much about which one of those were faster although Opera had some speed test videos recently i think showing how fast it was.
[21:01] <Roasted_> Guest25127, its not even about using the exchange address list as real time - I just want a way to copy it and suck it up into my own little address book even.
[21:01] <rinku_kokiri> try this one...  firefox still doesn't know how to render this one right  http://www.fossilizedcustoms.com/articles.html
[21:02] <rinku_kokiri> opera works good on it though
[21:02] <rinku_kokiri> siddhion:~# i mean overall first load time
[21:02] <rinku_kokiri> opera hangs for 35+ secs while firefox is already open and on pages
[21:02] <Guest25127> @Roasted_, yeah, I guessed that. Dump it into whatever format it'll let you and mangle it via. a script into some decent format
[21:02] <guntbert> !ot | rinku_kokiri Roasted siddhion Stereocaulon
[21:03] <siddhion> rinku_kokiri, oh i see. well if we are talking first load time, Chrome(ium) is by far the fastest
[21:03] <blakkheim> compile firefox with better cflags and some stuff disabled, and it will open much faster

[21:08] <Stereocaulon> Quagmire, do you have a separate /home partition?
[21:08] <starredsteria> Ive tried adjusting so many settting... does the same thing whether or not I print to file or on paper as well
[21:09] <Guest25127> @Roasted_, a cool thing I only noticed the other day was that if you have a window open displaying the contents of a directory but then rename the directory itself (outside of the window obviously), the directory name in the open window's title bar changes automatically - very cool!
[21:09] <Quagmire> ~[ Stereocaulon ]~ Yes I believe I do
[21:09] <Roasted_> oh?

[21:10] <mbeierl> dumb question time: vncviewer and skype screen share, etc, all show black screens whenever I attempt to use them on a desktop which is running compiz.  is there any way of combining desktop effects with screen share software or do I always have to drop down to metacity when I want to do sharing?
[21:10] <Quagmire> ~[ Stereocaulon ]~ Yes It's over on another partition
[21:10] <amarcolino> I just finished setting up a hostname in ubuntu and trying to login through putty using that hostname but keeps outputting host not found yet on the box I can ssh with the hostname, what could be the problem?

[21:11] <sda_> hi all, i set gnome-panel hide on, but sometime after it goes up it doesn't go down, there is any solution? (usually i kill the panel)
[21:11] <Stereocaulon> Quagmire, in that case, just point the ubuntu installer to mount your present /home partition as /home. So, let's say, if /home used to be sda2, it should be sda2 as well in the installer.
[21:11] <Papanamericano> does anyone know how could I verbose the Snort daemon?
[21:11] <shirish> lost the bottom panel on the desktop
[21:11] <hex0> How can I change the system language?
[21:11] <Quagmire> ~[ Stereocaulon ]~ Hmmm what is the easiest way to look for that info
[21:11] <Stereocaulon> Quagmire, just be sure to have a "no" in the column that asks if you want the installer to format it.
[21:11] <commodore> GIYF.
[21:12] <commodore> And here too I guess. lol
[21:12] <steev> suprengr: Stereocaulon: http://steev.net/files/screenshots/border.png ; look at the close/minimize/maximize buttons

[21:12] <Stereocaulon> Quagmire, ah, so you did not mount it at boot time...Hmm.
[21:12] <Papanamericano> Could anyone take a look at my /etc/init.d/snort : http://pastebin.com/JxBqEp2P
[21:12] <guntbert> amarcolino: you have to tell your windows machine where it can find your ubuntu machine too
[21:12] <Quagmire> I was thinking arkanabar was going to use fstab to point to the old one, but that is just what I thought.
[21:13] <shirish> linuzo: do you know how can I get my bottom panel back?
[21:13] <starredsteria> shirish: do you still have the top panel?
[21:13] <night> i wana open block sites
[21:14] <linuzo> shirish, right click top panel and click new panel
[21:14] <shirish> starredsteria: yes, the top panel is there, but bottom panel is not there ?
[21:14] <Stereocaulon> Quagmire, if you still know how much you have allocated to the /home partition and if that size is not the same as another partition, it should be easy to see which partition used to be mounted as /home
[21:14] <night> guybrush
[21:14] <starredsteria> yep.. just right click.. there will be a button to add new panel
[21:14] <shirish> linuzo: thank you.
[21:14] <amarcolino> guntbert: huh can you explain that, you mean use the internal ip with the hostname?
[21:14] <starredsteria> in properties.. you can change it to show in the bottom
[21:14] <linuzo> shirish, np
[21:14] <night> cyanid
[21:14] <shirish> linuzo: now I have the panel but how do I get the program statuses on the bottom panel.
[21:14] <shirish> linuzo: now I have the panel but how do I get the program statuses on the bottom panel ?
[21:15] <linuzo> shirish, right click, click add to panel
[21:15] <Quagmire> ~[ Stereocaulon ]~ Well I know the size of the other partition and I can see all of the files in it
[21:15] <night> linuzo
[21:15] <Stereocaulon> Quagmire, a comfortable way of rearring the mounts is through gparted
[21:15] <night> linuzo
[21:15] <night> linuzo
[21:15] <shirish> linuzo: yes, there are lots of options there.
[21:15] <linuzo> shirish,  then choose window list
[21:15] <shcherbak> amarcolino: firewall or resolving hostnames is problem
[21:15] <night> linuzo
[21:15] <linuzo> night ?
[21:15] <Quagmire> I can open gparted, but I'm not sure what to do with it
[21:15] <Stereocaulon> Quagmire, sorry, my keyboard again rearring => rearranging
[21:15] <shirish> linuzo: trying it out.
[21:16] <night> i wana open block site
[21:16] <linuzo> night, in firefox?
[21:16] <suprengr> steev:  use synaptic.. it's there ... download it.. start it (it'll be a menu item under Applications (system tools).  right click the icon in panel and choose reset.....  or try restarting 'X' if that is to much bother.
[21:16] <night> yes
[21:16] <linuzo> Night, click I understand the risk, then add exception
[21:16] <guntbert> amarcolino: to get it right: you have a windows machine (say "mywin" at <IP_ADDRESS>) and an ubuntu machine ("myubuntu" at <IP_ADDRESS>)  -- now ssh myubuntu from the ubuntu machine will work, but you must tell the windows machine that "myubuntu" is at <IP_ADDRESS>
[21:17] <night> how
[21:17] <steev> suprengr: i got it, i just went in with gconf-editor and changed the buttons under apps/metacity
[21:17] <amarcolino> shcherbak: i am assuming it's the second option resolving hostname, however, how do I go about solving it
[21:17] <shirish> linuzo: thank you once again.
[21:17] <linuzo> shirish, np..
[21:17] <shirish> :)
[21:17]  * shirish happy
[21:17] <night> im beginer here
[21:17] <starredsteria> anyone know where I can upload and host a screengrab.... without having to create an account with a site (like pastebin)?
[21:17] <suprengr> steev: cool
[21:17] <blakkheim> imageshack.us
[21:17] <shcherbak> amarcolino: in linux box type ifconfig
[21:17] <brontoeee> starredsteria, imagebin
[21:17] <night> linuzo
[21:18] <night> how
[21:18] <Quagmire> gparted
[21:18] <Quagmire> oops
[21:18] <shcherbak> amarcolino: then ssh from putty using LAN ip
[21:18] <duffydack> imgur.com
[21:18] <brontoeee> starredsteria, http://imagebin.org/
[21:18] <shirish> lastly, I'm trying to find a ntfs driver to write stuff to my windows partition, does anybody of a good driver?
[21:18] <mbeierl> night: I think you need to explain what you are attempting to do.  what do you mean by "blocked site"
[21:18] <sandra_> #rabe
[21:18] <blakkheim> shirish: ntfs-3g
[21:18] <amarcolino> guntbert: oh I just thought with the hostname it would just pick up, it wouldn't need to use the internal ip instead
[21:18] <benny99> hi, I'm establishing my inet connection by using pppoe. That however randomly fails to work on boot. Any ideas ?
[21:18] <night> blocked site like porn site as example
[21:18] <shirish> blakkheim: that is the best one?
[21:18] <blakkheim> shirish: yes
[21:19] <shirish> blakkheim: thank you then, ntfs-3g it is.
[21:19] <night> mbeierl with me
[21:19] <amarcolino> shcherbak: I can do it that way was hoping to be able to use the hostname instead, never have managed to get that working
[21:19] <linuzo> night, I dont know your configuration..
[21:19] <shcherbak> amarcolino: have you set sshd (server) and have you set (permit) firewall for ssh server in linux box?
[21:19] <guntbert> amarcolino: windows has a etc/hosts file too - anything you pout in there will resolve correctly ....
[21:19] <|ntegra|> I love the fact that anynyny can google webchat freenode ,and use the irc ona webbrowser now -thats great!
[21:19] <guntbert> *put
[21:19] <night> do you know hotspotshield
[21:20] <mbeierl> night: I do not understand what you mean when you said "with me"
[21:20] <brontoeee> |ntegra|, java or? port?
[21:20] <shcherbak> !winbind
[21:20] <night> mbierl
[21:20] <linuzo> night, what country are you in?
[21:21] <night> saudia arabia
[21:21] <|ntegra|> brontoeee: java I'm pretty sure (no java on my box of course)
[21:21] <daniel_> Hey is anyone alive?
[21:21] <night> linuzo and you
[21:21] <recon69_lap> firefox just locked up my desktop :(
[21:21] <tck9> is there a way to have the Banner for openssh display just when root logs in?
[21:21] <tck9> after editing the sshd conf file, the banner appears for all users logging into the system
[21:22] <blakkheim> tck9: you should disable root login entirely
[21:22] <starredsteria> hey.. can't anyone help me with this? My pdf viewer in 10.10 is making the txt all funny..... I've never had an issue with 10.04 http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/7358/screenshotnw.png
[21:22] <night> linuzo
[21:22] <paddy_> I tried to tell bzr about my launchpad account but it says I have no ssh keys, it's right but I have an openPGP key instead, can I not use this?
[21:22] <amarcolino> guntbert: that is something I had forgotten, weird, give me a sec
[21:22] <mbeierl> night: please understand - nothing we can do here will help you get around government or restrictive policies in your country.
[21:22] <starredsteria> I should say.. its only for printing.. to pdf or paper... not when I view it
[21:22] <testjs> seems to be javascript of some sort (ajax)
[21:22] <xTheGoat121x> Is anyone in here familiar with the enlightenment-based netbook launcher?
[21:22] <linuzo> night, then you probably can't watch that content from where you are
[21:22] <guntbert> amarcolino: it under system32/drivers/etc/hosts
[21:22] <amarcolino> shcherbak: everything set it's not the ssh server it might be what guntbert suggested
[21:22] <linuzo> night, it's blocked for legal reasons usually
[21:22] <Stereocaulon> night, you probably need a proxy to get around those limitations.
[21:22] <mbeierl> mbeierl: if you reach a web site that firefox (or other browser) says "this might be a security risk", that is an application problem that we can help with
[21:23]  * gregori79 sera
[21:23] <Guest25127> @Roasted_ , @Commodore I'm tempted to be a "bugger" (as opposed to a "de-bugger") and see what happens if one creates a directory, creates a symbolic link within it to itself and then renames it from its icon (outside itself) ...
[21:23] <amarcolino> guntbert: will check it out, my gosh havent touched that file in years
[21:23] <night> i know but with hotspot shield its open porn webisite automatically
[21:23] <sda_> hi all, i set gnome-panel hide on, but sometime after it goes up it doesn't go down, there is any solution? (usually i kill the panel)
[21:23] <|ntegra|> yupyup, it's nice anyhow -> even works at the windows public library now
[21:23] <guntbert> amarcolino: :)
[21:24] <gueriLLaPunK> what are the major differences between centos and ubuntu server?
[21:24] <night> but problem with firefox
[21:24] <brontoeee> gueriLLaPunK, i think centos is not debian based
[21:24] <guntbert> !ot | gueriLLaPunK
[21:24] <night> linuzo
[21:24] <gueriLLaPunK> yes i know this is a ubuntu channel
[21:25] <mbeierl> gueriLLaPunK: depending on what centos, the kernel for starters.  If it's 5.x, it's based on RedHat, which uses really old kernels that are patched to have only what RH thinks is stable and useful
[21:25] <latenite> Hi folk, I use pam_usb and a usbstick to login to my system. All I editet in /etc/pam.d/ is http://pastie.org/1282660 BUT after successfully login in WITH the stick I STILL get asked for the keyring password? I ont want that! How do I unlock the keyring also? Thanks
[21:25] <shirish> does anybody how to rename notes in tomboy, I'm not able to get how to name notes in tomboy notes ?
[21:25] <guntbert> gueriLLaPunK: not quite - it is the ubuntu *support* channel
[21:25] <mbeierl> gueriLLaPunK: secondly, this channel :)  You don't get this channel with centos
[21:26] <night> guys how i open blocked website
[21:26] <linuzo> night, then go talk to hotspot shield support
[21:26] <kasansweat> I've gotten the "grid plugin" working well in compiz -- now I'm considering dropping compiz altogether for a different window manager. I don't need a lot, mostly just the ability to position windows with keyboard shortcuts like in compiz grid -- any suggestions?
[21:26] <linuzo> night, this is not an ubuntu support question
[21:26] <|ntegra|> man, everyone says "mint!" but when I used the livecd of mint & ubuntu maverick the speed difference was nowhere near subtle - ubuntu wins big time
[21:26] <Stereocaulon> night, just use a proxy that does not include the blocked site in it's blocklist.
[21:26] <starredsteria> hotspot shield wont' work with linux :(
[21:26] <starredsteria> I've tried that numerous numerous times
[21:27] <shcherbak> sda_: set script to unhide pannel, one minute...
[21:27] <blakkheim> i use ssh tunneling
[21:27] <|ntegra|> starredsteria: can you explain once more please?
[21:27] <sda_> shcherbak, i don't understand
[21:27] <brontoeee> |ntegra|, julia should be equal to maverick imho, maybe you did not test the equal versions?
[21:27] <Guest25127> @Roasted_ , @Commodore - answer, having just tried it, the window title change still works - though the symbolic link becomes broken
[21:28] <shirish> linuzo: is there a way to rename notes in tomboy notes ?
[21:28] <night> guy im beginner here
[21:28] <latenite> can anyone just give me little hint? I real ym clueless on what to do.. *cry*

[21:29] <brontoeee> shirish, the first line defines the title/name i think
[21:29] <shcherbak> sta_ gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/panel/toplevels/top_panel_screen0/auto_hide '0'
[21:29] <night> i wana to open blocked website any programe can do that

[21:30] <night> linuzo im 22
[21:30] <Plagman> I use xfce rather than gnome and since the dist-upgrade to maverick the notification area plugin in xfce4-panel seems broken
[21:30] <Plagman> I don't see any icons there, does that ring a bell to anyone?
[21:30] <night> linuzo
[21:31] <sda_> shcherbak, yes i know, but this isn't my problem, my problem is this one, i SET hide panel, and i want it HIDED, but sometime when i need it (only for notification area) it goes up, but it doesn't return down as i want! i must killall gnome-panel and then it restart and work again

[21:34] <brontoeee> uf, making a ssh key and dumping it to my home server will imediately grant ssh access with no password, but my job server refuses that, any clues?
[21:34] <night> im younger here 22
[21:34] <guntbert> latenite: the keyring is unlocked only when you login with your password - but you *can* disable the keyring password (NOT recommended!!!!)
[21:34] <|ntegra|> um that wouldn't (don't think) a problem with your pdf viewer, but with the printer drivers  .. I'd start with (l.c.d) printing something from abiword a .txt
[21:34] <|ntegra|> I'ma search your screengrab here
[21:34] <latenite> guntbert, NO way to unlock it? Since I am using "SOMETHINK liek a password ->the usb pendrive
[21:34] <dtolj> unable to install openssh-server on 10.04 package openssh-server is not available.
[21:35] <trojan_spike> any1 know the name of that software for when u (copy)? keeps it for going back to,, i forget the name of it

[21:35] <starredsteria> |ntegra|: ?
[21:35] <amarcolino> guntbert: thanks worked like a charm, that has been troubling me for a while, just couldn't understand why it was working
[21:36] <guntbert> latenite: but if yo have only the wifi passphrase in there the risk si not sooo big :-), I can show you how
[21:36] <sda_> shcherbak, i did time ago, the problem is maybe it work for 10min then it stops up
[21:36] <guntbert> amarcolino: you're welcome :-)
[21:36] <shcherbak> sda_: it will hide panel, but you should check what (applett?) is blocking it.
[21:36] <night> guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuys
[21:36] <night> guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuys

[21:37] <shcherbak> sda_: write script with both commands and hook up to shortcut then.
[21:37] <dtolj> why is openssh-server not available from 10.04 server?
[21:37] <night> ok guys im here to add effects to my cursor ok
[21:37] <ikonia> dtolj: it is
[21:37] <RoughNeck> Hello Ubuntu World, I have a question.  How Do I Play My Movies I bought In iTunes, on Ubuntu 10.10?  I have every codec known to man, done everything in all the Ubuntu forums.  Please someone must know how.
[21:37] <|ntegra|> haha
[21:37] <Guest25127> @night, what kind of effects?
[21:37] <dtolj> ikonia: i can't seem to install it?
[21:37] <|ntegra|> starredsteria: o,i,c well, if you can print the .txt .rtf etc all good, try 'another' pdf even? I'd remake that pdf prolly [10:37] == sikaru<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has joined #ubuntu
[21:38] <ieri> Under 10.10, it gave me a message saying it was unable to install the bootloader, and asked me if I wanted to install it somewhere else (no option worked), continue without a bootloader or abort the install.
[21:38] <ikonia> dtolj: ok, so does it show up in apt-cache search openssh-server
[21:38] <sda_> shcherbak, ?? you mean gconftool....?
[21:38] <night> like light around cursor
[21:38] <dtolj> ikonia: nope
[21:38] <vajk> hello
[21:38] <Guest25127> Sort of a "night-light" ;-)
[21:38] <|ntegra|> starredsteria: you may not even have a problem with your printer drivers yaknow
[21:38] <ieri> I continued without one.  Maybe my hardware doesn't work with the newer version of GRUB... I guess I'll have to try to install an old version of GRUB, or some other boot loader, after ubuntu's installed.
[21:38] <vajk> huhh nepes lett a tabor miota utoljara errejartam
[21:38] <ikonia> dtolj: ok, what happens when you do "sudo apt-get update"
[21:38] <starredsteria> |ntegra|: I didn't make it.. its a purchase order sent to me for work by email
[21:38] <latenite> guntbert, terminal style?..I sshed into the box..no gui here
[21:38] <linuzo> RoughNeck, you need itunes to play DRM associated files
[21:38] <linuzo> RoughNeck, you would need to strip the DRM from the file
[21:39] <brontoeee> ikonia, dtolj isnt that only: apt-get install ssh ? (in lucid i mean)
[21:39] <ieri> Is there a different bootloader that can be made to work with Ubuntu?
[21:39] <vajk> hy all
[21:39] <Guest25127> @night, does compiz do stuff like that?
[21:39] <RoughNeck> How do I do that?
[21:39] <dtolj> ikonia: i get lots of cannot initiate connection to 3128:80 errors
[21:39] <dtolj> ikonia: i am using a proxy
[21:39] <|ntegra|> starredsteria: oh crap
[21:39] <rros> does anyone know how to make the colors in vim brighter on a dark background?
[21:39] <ikonia> dtolj: that's why there is a problem, your connection to the repos is broken
[21:39] <shcherbak> sda_: yes, you can start it from keyboard shortcut, so in case your panel is too lazy to hide.
[21:39] <night> ok but my compize just polling cursor
[21:39] <guntbert> latenite: ouch, this is one thing I don't know from the terminal, sorry
[21:39] <shcherbak> sda_: gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/panel/toplevels/top_panel_screen0/auto_hide '0'
[21:39] <shcherbak> sda_: gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/panel/toplevels/top_panel_screen0/auto_hide '1'
[21:39] <|ntegra|> starredsteria: have you backed up your old printer drivers?
[21:39] <night> how can chang that
[21:40] <latenite> guntbert, ok i run vnc....no big deal...gui here we go
[21:40] <starredsteria> |ntegra|: I just updated to 10.10 yesterday.. so I haven't tried any other pdf's.... let me try
[21:40] <linuzo> RoughNeck, try VLC it might work
[21:40] <shcherbak> sda_: both of them in this order
[21:40] <sda_> shcherbak,  it doesn't change, if it "lock" up if i change this setting it doesn't change it stays lock
[21:40] <latenite> guntbert, ok i am there
[21:40] <latenite> now?
[21:40] <RoughNeck> I have no luck that is why I came here
[21:40] <dtolj> ikonia: do I set proxy in env using http_proxy variable? is that sufficient?
[21:41] <ikonia> dtolj: depends on the proxy type, but normally yes
[21:41] <guntbert> latenite: right click on "passwords:login" on the first page, select "change password" and leave the new password blank
[21:41] <|ntegra|> oh we getting into the (l.c.d troubleshoot dat-data etc) haha ,, well I just killed a cd ,and a computer ,quess which one I skated on across the kitchen lino?
[21:41] <night> i wana proxy that unblocked website
[21:41] <tortoise> Quick question, once I've written a script how do I execute the script? And also, for future reference, is there another channel specific to shell scripting?
[21:41] <anygivenname> anyone into clonezilla ?
[21:41] <ikonia> night: you've been told not to ask about that
[21:42] <sda_> shcherbak, I think the main problem is when i set "unhide_delay" over 1000 it doesn't work nomore
[21:42] <night> ikonia im beginner here
[21:42] <sam__> Just setting up Thunderbird anyone know of a free online calendar with caldav support (other than Google)
[21:42] <dtolj> ikonia: its strange i can ping us.archive.ubuntu.com and telnet us.archive.ubuntu.com 80 but when I run apt-get update it says connection error.
[21:42] <brontoeee> tortoise, 1st chmod +x urscript, 2nd ./urscript (and it should run)
[21:42] <jamesstanley> tortoise: what language did you write the script in?
[21:42] <ikonia> night: that doesn't matter, you where told in clear english to not ask about that in this channel
[21:42] <shcherbak> sda_: hm, does panel (not locked) react on both commands? maybe dealy...
[21:42] <prtylghts> is there a way to launch an application from the shortcut under applications as sudo without having to use the terminal?
[21:42] <tortoise> jamesstanley: bash(?)
[21:42] <jamesstanley> ok
[21:42] <Stereocaulon> Yawn, I'm getting tired, time to get some Zzz's... It's been wonderful here. Thanks guys and gals...
[21:43] <ikonia> dtolj: ping and telnet are not http protocols, so they won't go out of http_proxy
[21:43] <linuzo> night Stereocaulon
[21:43] <latenite> guntbert, well that worked fine :) thanks
[21:43] <taofd> I have win 7 and ubuntu installed, but I want to use the windows bootloader as the default, how do I install grub-2 to the partition i have linux on?
[21:43] <jamesstanley> ikonia: if the http proxy supports CONNECT, they can do
[21:43] <tortoise> jamesstanley: does that change what brontoeee said?
[21:43] <jamesstanley> nope
[21:43] <ikonia> jamesstanley: but the tools won't repond to the environment varible http_proxy in linux
[21:43] <jamesstanley> tortoise: it's just that if it was perl, python, or anything like that, i would recommend the appropriate channel
[21:43] <anygivenname> I have used clonezilla to move my HDD to new PC....it worked all fine to 100% then giving Unknown Filesystem after reboot
[21:44] <jamesstanley> ikonia: ah yes, that's true
[21:44] <guntbert> latenite: you're welcome :-) but remember there is a potential security hole right now, if any other passwords/keys are stored in there
[21:44] <linuzo> taofd, you need to use EasyBCD
[21:44] <night> sterocaluon ???
[21:44] <linuzo> taofd, http://www.brighthub.com/computing/windows-platform/articles/40466.aspx
[21:44] <sda_> shcherbak, example, the panel start, and work a couple of time or only one (depends) then it doesn't go down if i change hide 0 or 1, the only thing change, if i put hide to 0 the windows (like chat windows) it goes up, if i set to 1 it return under
[21:44] <starredsteria> |ntegra|: Arg.. even worse... its only this file.....
[21:45] <|ntegra|> yikes!
[21:45] <starredsteria> |ntegra|: I tried the original before it was signed... that seems fine
[21:45] <starredsteria> |ntegra|: Need to print out the signed copy though :(
[21:45] <taofd> linuzo, yes im using easy bcd, i'm on a live cd now, and i need to install grub2 to the linux partition to be able to boot
[21:45] <night> can call guy private here
[21:45] <|ntegra|> remake the file
[21:45] <dtolj> ikonia: any alternative tools you know off?
[21:45] <|ntegra|> so you can print fine then?
[21:45] <starredsteria> |ntegra| I didn't make it
[21:45] <ikonia> dtolj: should be a need for alternative tools
[21:45] <|ntegra|> can you print other stuff just fine?
[21:45] <shcherbak> sda_: yes, exactly
[21:45] <starredsteria> |ntegra|: its company email that gets forwarded to me once signed by the client
[21:45] <ikonia> dtolj: it looks like the http proxy your using isn't working or requires more configuration than just http_proxy
[21:46] <starredsteria> |ntegra|: tried deleting and resaving... same thing
[21:46] <night> شباب
[21:46] <night> انا اتكلم عربي
[21:46] <ikonia> night: english only in this channel please
[21:46] <latenite> guntbert, man thanks for your help :)
[21:46] <guntbert> latenite: :)
[21:47] <night> i wana translate your language
[21:47] <starredsteria> |ntegra|: going to try one last thing... dl from the web backup server... see if that works
[21:47] <|ntegra|> s**t did I just say gimp?
[21:47] <linuzo> taofd, type df to locate your linux partition then use grub-install /dev/partition
[21:47] <|ntegra|> oOo
[21:47] <sda_> shcherbak,  it not the solution because one time it freeze it never goes down, so i have to reset it, with your script i must don't try take it up with my mouse but only with the script (ps bathroom calls me brb)
[21:47] <jamesstanley> night: you want to translate ubuntu to arabic?
[21:47] <ieri> Okay, 10.10 crashed too.  I think I'm going to have to try a different distro... ubuntu just doesn't like my desktop computer (runs great on my wife's laptop)
[21:48] <ieri> I guess this would be the wrong place to ask for suggestions for other distros...
[21:48] <night> ikonia my cursor is normal i wana effects on my cursor
[21:48] <the_eye_> anyone with ati x700 ?
[21:48] <|ntegra|> nice1, I can leave now, 0> have a great day all y'all!
[21:48] <ikonia> night: you've said wait for someone to response, but please stop asking about how to get around your blocked website
[21:48] <linuzo> jamesstanley, that will keep him busy for awhile.. lol
[21:49] <jamesstanley> linuzo: that's what i thought
[21:49] <duffydack> the Show Mouse plugin for compiz?
[21:49] <prtylghts> any way to set up a application to run under sudo directly from the applications menu?
[21:49] <taofd> linuzo, so it would look like grub-install /dev/sda1
[21:49] <linuzo> taofd, if that it is your linux partition yes..
[21:50] <taofd> linuzo, will it matter that i'm on a live cd? should i use grub-install /media/<hd_ID>/dev/sda1?
[21:50] <brontoeee> prtylghts, no idea, but you can make a launcher with gksudo prepended
[21:50] <linuzo> taofd, if your own a live cd you might need to chroot
[21:50] <night> im waiting
[21:51] <linuzo> taofd, mount the partition to a folder then chroot /mnt/folder
[21:51] <night> my compize fusion is not have cursor effects
[21:51] <taofd> linuzo, would using grub-install --root-directory= blah blah blah, work as well?
[21:51] <xevious> Is the Silicon Image 3114 SATA controller supported by 10.10 out of the box?
[21:51] <prtylghts> brontoeee: how exactly do use gksudo?
[21:52] <linuzo> taofd, if your on a live cd you need to change your root filesystem or else it will just try to install on the livecd filesystem
[21:52] <starredsteria> Arg.. still have issues with my pdfs... on all actually it seems to be a txt thing. I'm noticing it on other print outs now....
[21:53] <sda_> shcherbak, i don't like much the solution, right now wit 999millisecond works well, i hope it's not come up too fast
[21:53] <starredsteria> Here's the screengrab.. http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/7358/screenshotnw.png can anyone help?
[21:53] <taofd> linuzo, isn't that the point in specifying grub-install /media/<HD_ID>/dev/sda1 ?
[21:53] <pers3us> hmm
[21:53] <night> guys my compize fusion dose not have cursor effects
[21:53] <taofd> linuzo, its mounted under media right now, so as long as i specify that, it should be fine right?
[21:53] <linuzo> taofd, no, you need to chroot to that place first
[21:53] <sosaited> has anyone tried brtfs?
[21:54] <brontoeee> prtylghts, just make a lanucher with a command like : gksudo myrootishapp
[21:54] <linuzo> taofd, otherwise you executing grub-install from the livecd not the current filesystem
[21:54] <brontoeee> prtylghts, and will ask for password
[21:54] <starredsteria> is there a way to have pdf viewer/printer to recognize more fonts?... I have a feeling that is part of the issue
[21:56] <sosaited> Sorry, I meant Btrfs
[21:56] <taofd> linuzo, i think that's what the --root-directory= calls, i'm read the guide here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[21:56] <night> i wana improve my compize fusion
[21:56] <prtylghts> brontoeee: when i run gksudo i get the error: gksudo:9001 gtk-warning .. unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "ubuntulooks"
[21:56] <duffydack> night, show mouse plugin.
[21:56] <Diverdude> Is it possible to run a remote desktop application on ubuntu so that i can remote control remote servers running windows?

[21:57] <night> how
[21:57] <latenite> Hi folks, Where in gconf-editor do I change settings for "logout - user" so the user dows NOT have to confirm when ckliced logout. thanks
[21:57] <michal_> Diverdude: try gnome-rdp
[21:57] <linuzo> taofd, ok you do whatever you feel.. But the correct way would be to execute chroot /media/folder then grub-install /dev/sda1 or whatever
[21:58] <J11> How can i share a printer with windows clients? I installed samba, used cupsaddsmb, edited the config to allow guest access, the printer installs on the client but i still get access denied on it
[21:58] <duffydack> night, install compizconfig-settings-manager
[21:58] <linuzo> taofd, becuase the boot folder on the live cd is different then the boot folder in your filesystem
[21:58] <night> its already installed
[21:58] <xevious> Does Ubuntu support the JMicron JMB363 SATA/PATA controller?
[21:59]  * shirish out

[21:59] <armenb> and I need to get the image by more subversive means
[21:59] <Guest25127> @Diverdude, Ubuntu supports RDC by default
[21:59] <taofd> linuzo, so i should chroot /media/<HD_ID>/dev/sda1?
[21:59] <Chaos2358> is there an app for monitoring cpu temp and controlling fan speed?
[22:00] <Chaos2358> using ubuntu 10.10
[22:00] <linuzo> taofd, chroot /media/hdid
[22:00] <armenb> anyone? please? ubuntu cd image URL?
[22:00] <taofd> linuzo, err chroot /media/<hd_id> then sudo grub-install /dev/sda1
[22:00] <linuzo> taofd, yes
[22:00] <taofd> linuzo, okay thanks :)
[22:00] <night> how
[22:01] <armenb> it would be fantastic if the ubuntu.com website actually linked to URLs instead of a fancy form-based URL-creator.
[22:01] <night> how
[22:01] <rusivi> Chaos2358: Regarding cpu temp -> GNOME Sensors Applet
[22:01] <taofd> linuzo, and this won't wipe my existing win bootloader right? it'll just install grub to the specific partition?
[22:01] <duffydack> night, look inside the plugin options.
[22:02] <linuzo> taofd, yes your right
[22:02] <taofd> linuzo, okay was just making sure, thanks for all your help :)
[22:02] <duffydack> night, default is super+k on keyboard, but you can set a mouse gesture also and change the effects.
[22:03] <linuzo> taofd, no problem.. have a good day
[22:03] <rusivi> !vpn | Diverdude
[22:03] <thechitowncubs> Can someone help me create a user to only have read access on a folder through ssh?
[22:03] <sweb> how can i find out my vpn connection is encrypted my data ?
[22:03] <sweb> is any way in ubuntu ?
[22:03] <captkirk> sweb: you could use wireshark to sniff outgoing traffic and then look at it
[22:03] <latenite> how do I get "acroread" my apt cant find it. thanks
[22:04] <night> it said update pointeer position from xserver
[22:04] <taofd> linuzo, err i'm getting an error, it says that /dev/sda1 is already mounted under /media/<HD_ID>
[22:04] <Sonja> i just installed ubuntu netbook edition. how to i switch it to ubuntu desktop without reinstalling?
[22:04] <night> xserver????
[22:04] <iluminator101> I just installed lucid and system preferences and administration is missing is this a bug if so whats the fix?
[22:04] <sweb> captkirk, thank you ...  i'll use it
[22:04] <duffydack> night,  what?  all I know is, use compizconfig, enable Show Mouse and set the key/mouse binding you want. done
[22:04] <mbroeker> latenite, you must activate the partner repository
[22:05] <brontoeee> Sonja, just select gnome at login prompt
[22:05] <latenite> mbroeker, how do I do that? edit sourecs.lst?
[22:05] <Sonja> thanks brontoeee
[22:05] <latenite> mbroeker, to waht value?
[22:05] <mbroeker> latenite, for example: edit it and uncomment the partner line
[22:06] <mbroeker> latenite, when finished, apt-get update && apt-get install acroread
[22:06] <latenite> mbroeker, do I get also "libdvdcss" with that?
[22:06] <iluminator101> I just installed lucid and system preferences and administration is missing is this a bug if so whats the fix???
[22:06] <linuzo> taofd, why don't you just use grub to boot to windows?
[22:07] <mbroeker> latenite, from memory: there is a shell script installed...
[22:07] <taofd> linuzo, because in the case of if windows screws up my bootloader, it's easier for me to recover ubuntu than vice versa
[22:08] <mbroeker> latenite, /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh
[22:08] <latenite> mbroeker, partern finds "acroread" but no "libdvdcss"....how to I get libdvdcss
[22:08] <linuzo> taofd, just add windows into the grub bootloader
[22:09] <corecode> hey
[22:09] <corecode> how do you disable a service that uses upstart?
[22:09] <corecode> i'd like to stop network-manager from loading
[22:10] <linuzo> corecode, System > preferences > startup applications
[22:10] <corecode> linuzo: that's just nm-applet
[22:11] <mbroeker> corecode, purge it :)
[22:11] <iluminator101> I just installed lucid and system preferences and administration is missing??
[22:11] <corecode> well no
[22:11] <linuzo> corecode, sudo update-rc.d NetworkManager remove
[22:11] <Yerushalmi> Hey folks. I'm having trouble getting Ubuntu to play videos; I have an mp4, for instance, that no matter whether I open it with Movie Player, GNOME MPlayer, or Firefox, it opens the file and then closes it immediately again without playing it.
[22:11] <latenite> mbroeker, wow thanks... works fine
[22:12] <corecode> linuzo: there is no NetworkManager in init.d
[22:12] <thechitowncubs> How can I create a user with only Read Only access to the folder i set as his home
[22:12] <Tweedle> does JACK connect to ALSA? so i can then stream ALSA's hw:0,0 while DJ'ing with a Jack program?
[22:12] <rusivi> Yerushamlmi: mp4 is audio, and one needs appropriate ffmeg package for it
[22:12] <corecode> linuzo: i said upstart
[22:12] <mbroeker> latenite, the first thing i do after an upgrade or installation of ubuntu: Insert Original DVds and check whether they play or not :)
[22:12] <linuzo> corecode, why not just remove it
[22:12] <Yerushalmi> rusivi: Where do I get it from?
[22:12] <corecode> linuzo: because i just want to disable it
[22:13] <Tweedle> Yerushalmi, mp4 is video too.
[22:13] <iluminator101> I just installed lucid and system preferences and administration is missing in menu under system??
[22:13] <trojan_spike> corecode, u can stop it in 'startup application'
[22:13] <Yerushalmi> Tweedle: *nod* I know, I've played the video on a Windows machine before. What do I do to get it to play here?
[22:13] <corecode> trojan_spike: no
[22:13] <Tweedle> Yerushalmi, try running the player from the terminal, so u can see the error
[22:14] <corecode> trojan_spike: that's just nm-applet
[22:14] <linuzo> corecode, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=527365

[22:14] <Quagmire> Hello Guys, I'm going to try this again. I installed 10.04 onto a new partition that I created on my laptop and it seems to be running ok, but I want to access my info from my old version of ubuntu 9.04 which is on the same laptop, but in another partition. What is the best way to accomplish this?
[22:14] <Yerushalmi> Tweedle: Okay. What's the command? I'm not used to terminal much
[22:14] <iluminator101> hey guys, i just installed lucid, and i noticed under system preferences and administration is missing from the menus???
[22:15] <trojan_spike> corecode, network connection'' edit the set-up to not outo-connect
[22:15] <trojan_spike> auto

[22:17] <drizzt_> update manager offers me 8.10 upgrade but when I accept it, it says that cannot find release notes,,, ??
[22:17] <rek> Yerushalmi,  tried with sudo?
[22:17] <trojan_spike> corecode, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=527365
[22:17] <xevious> Ubuntu 10.10 has memtest on it, correct?
[22:17] <Tweedle> rek, shouldnt need sudo
[22:17] <Yerushalmi> rek: Still segmentation fault
[22:17] <rek> i know
[22:18] <Tweedle> Yerushalmi, download vlc
[22:18] <rek> but i wrote a program ... if i do sudo i don't get that kind of error
[22:18] <Yerushalmi> Tweedle: *nod* Doing so.
[22:18] <Quagmire> Does anyone have a little time to help me get my old info into my new version of Ubuntu?
[22:18] <Tweedle> :)
[22:18] <rek> a code to switch on some diodes
[22:18] <Tweedle> Quagmire, just upgrade it
[22:19] <rek> i used outb()
[22:19] <Noble> Which bootsplash program does Ubuntu use?
[22:19] <mbroeker> rek, man ioperm
[22:19] <rek> mbroeker, i used ioperm too
[22:20] <Quagmire> well I installed 10.04 into a new partition and left my old 9.04 alone so I didn't have to worry about losing information. Now I need to link it or move it to 10.04
[22:20] <mbroeker> rek, low level stuff needs special privs
[22:20] <Tweedle> ahhh, sry Quagmire i dont know
[22:20] <TMN__> I have ubuntu maverick netbook remix and touchscreen slate. how do i figure out if my touchscreen is compatible with the utouch thing and how do i get it working if it is compatible
[22:20] <Quagmire> I'm not sure what the best cure really is
[22:20] <rek> mbroeker, yeah
[22:21] <mbroeker> rek, do prevent your app from segfaulting: check the return values of ioperm and iopl
[22:21] <trojan_spike> corecode, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager?action=show&redirect=WifiDocs%2FNetworkManager#head-1de145d05f957ff659f5fdb58974ec3e5864def5
[22:21] <giiker> Quagmire: can you mount it as your hoe?
[22:21] <rek> how mbroeker a sudo did the job
[22:21] <giiker> Quagmire: can you mount it as your home?
[22:21] <mbroeker> rek, well: a segfault is a coders bug. are you a coder?
[22:21] <Quagmire> ~[ giiker ]~ I probably can, but I'm not sure how to go about that
[22:22] <Quagmire> I have gparted installed and running
[22:22] <giiker> Quagmire: you can copy it to your new partition then with Gparted
[22:22] <Quagmire> but I think my 9.04 info is mixed in with my entire 9.04 system
[22:23] <giiker> Quagmire: what a re u refferring by info?
[22:23] <Quagmire> I want to make sure I make the right decision
[22:23] <Quagmire> well all of my files and info
[22:23] <giiker> Quagmire: do you mean settings, data, exactly what?
[22:23] <Tweedle> do'h!
[22:23] <drizzt_> Quagmire, like /etc?
[22:23] <Shwaiil> hi ppl
[22:23] <Shwaiil> :D
[22:24] <Tweedle> Yerushalmi, did u get it working?
[22:24] <Shwaiil> Q: I want to install windows on a virtualbox, I've got the files on a "directory" and I need a imagem/iso maker. Can someone sugest a program that is capable of doing that ? Thanks =D
[22:24] <Quagmire> ~[ giiker ]~ I swear I am not being coy by choice, but I truly don't know what the right answer is. I'm just not sure what the proper choice really should be
[22:25] <Quagmire> Of course I want my files
[22:25] <Quagmire> but beyond that I'm not sure what makes sense to bring or not. customization maybe silly to bring
[22:25] <Darthfett> Hello, kind of new to Ubuntu here.  I use my laptop on a college campus, and while wifi is available over the entire campus, the connection sometimes gets lost.  Is there any way to automatically reconnect?
[22:25] <sweb> captkirk, how can i determine the my data is encrypted in wireshark
[22:25] <sweb> ?
[22:25] <giiker> Quagmire:/quit
[22:26] <drizzt_> Shwaiil, you need cdrtools if you want bootable cd
[22:26] <Darthfett> Anyone know where to look?
[22:26] <Quagmire> that's helpful. [rolling eyes]
[22:26] <syn-ack> Good afternoon, folks
[22:26] <mbroeker> Shwaiil, https://jeremy.visser.name/2008/07/12/slipstreaming-windows-xp-with-service-pack-3-in-linux/
[22:26] <giiker> Quagmire: sorry, had to logut to get into another shell
[22:26] <giiker> Quagmire: try to rad thi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[22:27] <TMN__> does anyone know where/how i can find out whether my touchscreen device is compatible with ubuntu
[22:27] <giiker> Quagmire: try to read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[22:27] <Quagmire> ~[ giiker ]~ Thank you, I will dive into it
[22:27] <goltoof> how do i grant multiple groups access to a dir?
[22:27] <captkirk> sweb: well generate some traffic that would normally be in clear text (http requests) and then check to see if you can find them in your wireshark logs =D
[22:28] <syn-ack> goltoof: man chown
[22:28] <giiker> Quagmire: NP :
[22:28] <Shwaiil> mbroeker, drizzt_ thanks for looking! the directory I have of win xp, is the full win xp. I can burn it to a cd-r, but I didnt want too :T I tought I could just create a image and then mount it on the virtualbox (I'm new to this ).
[22:28] <sweb> captkirk, if my data will appear look likse bashe64 data in bottom panel of Wireshark, my data is encrypted ?
[22:29] <sweb> captkirk, base64*
[22:29] <mbroeker> Shwaiil, create the iso and don't burn it. problem solved...
[22:29] <drizzt_> Shwaiil, you generate iso file and mount it
[22:29] <Quagmire> ~[ giiker ]~ THe guy who was helping me earlier today suggested using fstab. Do you think htat's the better choice?
[22:29] <Shwaiil> mbroeker, currenlty reading the article
[22:30] <rusivi> Shwaiil: What your looking to do is to create a HAL-independent OS clone.
[22:30] <mbroeker> Shwaiil, virtualbox can boot from isos
[22:30] <giiker> Quagmire: yes, I always use fstab! it works all the time,
[22:30] <syn-ack> Quagmire: I would use fstab over any other method, but that's just me
[22:30] <drizzt_> Shwaiil, don't forget to create unattended install file
[22:30] <goltoof> syn-ack,   obvious, but an example?   ie  sudo chown -R goltoof /var/www   .... that's one user but what about multiple?
[22:30] <Shwaiil> mbroeker, yup thats what I want to do. I guess the program for that is cdrkit ?
[22:31] <Gumby> hi all.  I was wondering if anyone knows where I might be able to find the DVB.pm perl file?
[22:31] <Shwaiil> my questions is basicly asking the name of a program on ubuntu that I can do that =)
[22:31] <captkirk> sweb: if I understand what you mean, yeah
[22:31] <Kurdistan> guys is it true that ubuntu is moving away from desktop and focusing on tablets and smartphones?
[22:31] <brian_> Hey, both Ubuntu and Windows can access FAT file systems, correct?
[22:31] <Shwaiil> humm seems that I alerady have a program for that, genisoimage
[22:32] <coz_> Kurdistan,  I doubt ubuntu will move from desktop versions
[22:32] <Quagmire> ~[ giiker ]~ I'm also confused on why the guy who was helping me had me make an small 10gb partition... do you think htat had anything to do with moving my files over or was that about creating a swap area?
[22:32] <zvacet> brian_ yes
[22:32] <trojan_spike> Kurdistan, just branching out
[22:32] <brian_> Kurdistan: Even if Ubuntu focuses on  smartphones and other such things, I doubt they would abandon their desktop line of the OS
[22:32] <mbroeker> Shwaiil, the blog uses genisoimage, but  if you are more familiar with another image generator, use it
[22:32] <brian_> Seeing as it is the most awesome OS ever :P
[22:32] <frxstrem> when I plug my second monitor into my laptop, I can expand the desktop, but when I disconnect it again, the desktop is still expanded, even after rebooting (when I have saved xorg.conf) - is it possible to only expand the desktop whenever a second monitor is plugged in, like Windows does? (I am using the Nvidia driver)
[22:32] <Kurdistan> I hope so. Becuase buntu is the best linux desktop os.
[22:32] <giiker> Quagmire: Quagmire to big to be a swap, he probably wanted to copy your data to that 10 GB aprtition
[22:33] <Quagmire> ~[ giiker ]~ It stinks when someone is helping and then they have to go and you aren't sure about all the things that person had you do.
[22:33] <brian_> frxstrem: I have a similar issue
[22:33] <Kurdistan> but then we have the father of all good, debian out there and linuxmint.
[22:33] <brian_> I find that if I hit System -> Preferences -> Monitors it checks all the monitors again
[22:33] <Quagmire> so it sounds like I need to pull that data into that paretition?
[22:33] <brian_> and fixes everything
[22:33] <zvacet> Kurdistan:  I believe we all agree with you but this is off topic
[22:33] <brian_> So if you could make it do that, then you'd be able to automate it
[22:34] <Quagmire> as a matter of fact he had me set up the large artition as / and the 10gb partition as /home
[22:34] <giiker> Quagmire: you can just mount the old partition with your old data, don't need to copy it to another partition
[22:34] <drizzt_> update manager offers me 8.10 upgrade but when I accept it, it says that cannot find release notes,why?
[22:34] <frxstrem> brian_: well, I haven't tried that, but I use a custom driver that the built-in preferences does not support, so it just redirects me to the Nvidia configuration, which doesn't seem to have the same effect
[22:34] <trojan_spike> 8.10 upgrade?
[22:34] <brian_> Ooh
[22:35] <brian_> My driver was supported by default
[22:35] <syn-ack> drizzt_: which version are you currently running?
[22:35] <zvacet> drizzt_: 8.10is not supported any more
[22:35] <drizzt_> syn-ack, any way to know?
[22:35] <intrader> Anyone, following the 10.10 automatic update from a couple of days ago, my laptop is running the fans more as the CPU load has increased to over 50%. This laptop was running speedily until that update.
[22:35] <syn-ack> drizzt_: system > About Ubuntu
[22:35] <zvacet> drizzt_ : lsb_relaese -a
[22:35] <syn-ack> That too
[22:35] <Kurdistan> zvacet, yes it is. it is good that buntu want to explore new areas. but plz if it any developer here dont forget desktop os.
[22:36] <drizzt_> 8.04.1
[22:36] <Yerushalmi> Tweedle: I don't seem to be able to open VLC
[22:36] <syn-ack> wow
[22:36] <zvacet> drizzt_: you can upgrade to 10.0.4
[22:36] <brian_> Hmm
[22:36] <Quagmire> ~[ giiker ]~ My old home folder is 7.7gb in size
[22:36] <brian_> How much space should I allocate to a media partition?
[22:37] <brian_> 100GB?  200GB?
[22:37] <syn-ack> drizzt_: the easiest way for you to upgrade at this point is to grab a 10.04 image and upgrade from it
[22:37] <Blue1> is there an alternative to Kontact?  It works....sometimes....
[22:37] <Yerushalmi> Tweedle: I installed it fine, but when I click on its icon or right-click on the video and "open with", nothing happens
[22:37] <zvacet> syn-ack : that will be fresh install if he does not use alternate cd
[22:38] <figueroa> i cant get my display to stop flickering..?
[22:38] <Yerushalmi> Tweedle: And typing into Terminal "vlc <filename>" gives me two lines of output: VLC media player 1.0.6 Goldeneye, and then Segmentation fault.
[22:38] <syn-ack> zvacet: Good point
[22:38] <trojan_spike> Yerushalmi, terminal 'vlc'
[22:38] <Yerushalmi> trojan_spike: Same output.
[22:38] <KB1JWQ> Yerushalmi: Interesting.  You familiar with strace?
[22:38] <giiker> Quagmire: wait a sec, someone just called me on the phone
[22:38] <Yerushalmi> KB1JWQ: Never heard of it.
[22:38] <syn-ack> zvacet: I generally space the fact that the standard doesnt support that since I always use the alternate CD
[22:38] <drizzt_> how can I chhose 10.4 instead of 8.10?
[22:38] <Shwaiil> I'm trying     genisoimage -o cd.iso home/download/win_xp_files_here/
[22:38] <Quagmire> ~[ giiker ]~ sure thing
[22:38] <Shwaiil> but says there's no such dir :T
[22:39] <figueroa> can anyone helpme figure out how to stop the display from flickering?
[22:39] <KB1JWQ> drizzt_: I usually apt-get dist-upgrade, but google for upgrade instructions. :-)
[22:39] <trojan_spike> Yerushalmi, synaptic , fix brokem packages
[22:39] <figueroa> im gonna have a seizure soon
[22:39] <zvacet> drizzt_ : just a sec
[22:39] <giiker> Quagmire: you don't need to copy data over to another partition, once you mount the old partition you can just access it irght of the bat!
[22:39] <syn-ack> drizzt_: sudo do-release-upgrade
[22:39] <Shwaiil> I mean home/user/download/win_files_here

[22:41] <Yerushalmi> trojan_spike: Reinstall what? VLC?
[22:41] <trojan_spike> yea
[22:41] <zvacet> drizzt_ : system>software repositories>updates> on the bottom you can switch to lts releases
[22:41] <blackshirt> simplyseth: i have Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 03) card
[22:41] <simplyseth> blackshirt: what driver you use in xorg ?
[22:41] <Tweedle> Yerushalmi, did u install ALL dependencies?
[22:41] <Yerushalmi> I'm suspecting there's something more basic here that's causing problems for all my media players.
[22:41] <Quagmire> ~[ giiker ]~ well I have gparted opened and I can see the path /dev/sda5
[22:42] <BrianEvo> adb push Sprint_VVM.apk /system/app
[22:42] <blackshirt> i'am using intel driver
[22:42] <Tweedle> Yerushalmi, use the synaptic package manager to install VLC
[22:42] <Yerushalmi> Tweedle: Okay
[22:42] <figueroa> can anyone help me get the display to stop flickering??
[22:42] <blackshirt> simplyseth: intel driver
[22:42] <Tweedle> Yerushalmi, then do a search for mp4 in the pkg manager, and look for things that might help, like codecs etc.
[22:43] <simplyseth> blackshirt:  Driver "intel"  ?
[22:43] <bsmith093> how do i join an irc channel on another server

[22:43] <Yerushalmi> I marked VLC for reinstallation, is that enough?
[22:44] <figueroa> SOMEONE HELP ME...please
[22:44] <linuzo> figueroa, what is your issue?
[22:44] <Yerushalmi> I would have assumed that Ubuntu software center would have installed all dependencies automatically.
[22:44] <hal> I am using something that depends on java jre.  Although I am sure that i have jre, I cannot find the executable. Synaptic shows that I have it installed. see  this screenshot   http://yfrog.com/77screenshot096ip
[22:44] <rusivi> !ask | figueroa
[22:44] <figueroa> linuzo, i  cant get my display to stop flickering
[22:44] <hal> does anyone know where I can find it please?
[22:44] <blackshirt> simplyseth: i810
[22:44] <sofaking88> I NEED HELP! The ethernet port just all of a sudden stopped working on my Dell Inspiron 8500, and I don't know what happened!
[22:44] <simplyseth> blackshirt: thanks
[22:44] <linuzo> figueroa, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=812868
[22:45] <linuzo> it might be compiz
[22:45] <linuzo> try that
[22:45] <anygivenname> how can I setup wired connection ?
[22:45] <figueroa> linuzo, i dont believe i have compiz setup, i just installed
[22:45] <sofaking88> I'm trying to get wireless on it, apparently I need some sort of internet connection on it
[22:45] <Yerushalmi> I marked VLC for reinstallation, hit apply, it did so, and... no effect. Still get a segmentation fault when I merely try to open it.
[22:46] <Hexbomber> I had a harddrive with Ubuntu 10.04 on it (was encrypted using the full disk encryption on the alternate cd), and my friend formatted the drive with Mac OSX, but didn't "zero" over it or whatever. Is there anyway to try and recover some files from this disk
[22:46] <linuzo> figueroa, it installs default I believe
[22:46] <Yerushalmi> Forget the mp4 file, the program won't open.
[22:46] <linuzo> figueroa, try System > preferences > appearance
[22:46] <figueroa> linuzo, there are no effects going, they are all disabled
[22:46] <linuzo> figueroa, click visual effects choose none
[22:46] <sofaking88> CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!? I already told what's going on!
[22:46] <linuzo> figueroa, whats your video card?
[22:46] <figueroa> linuzo, i did
[22:47] <rypervenche> hal: Give me a second. I'm getting the folder for you.
[22:47] <giiker> Hexbomber: that's going to be pretty much impossible!
[22:47] <figueroa> linuzo, im not sure, how do i find out?
[22:47] <Hexbomber> giiker: :(
[22:47] <rusivi> Hexbomber: You would most likely have to take it to a professional.
[22:47] <hal> thank you rypervenche :)
[22:47] <rypervenche> hal: Go to /usr/lib/jvm then figure it out from there.
[22:47] <Hexbomber> Won't a professional just run some proprietary tool on it that I could've downloaded.
[22:47] <blackshirt> symplyseth: you're welcome
[22:47] <anygivenname> how do I setup wired connection ?
[22:47] <Shwaiil> Q: How to go back a dir like on win, cd.. ? truogh command line
[22:47] <Hexbomber> I know the key used for full disk encryption and everything...
[22:48] <linuzo> figueroa, goto terminal type   lspci | grep VGA
[22:48] <coz_> Shwaiil,   cd ..
[22:48] <Shwaiil> thanks
[22:48] <blackshirt> anygivenname: can you configure it throug network-manager ??
[22:48] <hal> rypervenche: have you found the jre executable?  This is what I need to find out
[22:48] <snarkster> since Im using ubuntu this is on topic. Is it possible to dd a windows partition to another drive and have it boot? Or would cat be better?
[22:48] <giiker> Hexbomber: nop, they use multidollar tools! :)
[22:49] <anygivenname> blackshirt: yes I did but no connection on broswer

[22:50] <figueroa> linuzo, getting very close to seizing soon
[22:50] <linuzo> figueroa, Did you install the nvidia drivers?
[22:50] <hal> rypervenche: is it called jre?
[22:50] <figueroa> im not sure, probably not, how would i do that?
[22:50] <giiker> Hexbomber: I have read some stories that worked on some partitions with encryption, but search more about it : http://www.grc.com/sr/spinrite.htm
[22:50] <rypervenche> hal: It's called java. The command to start sun java is just "java"
[22:50] <zvacet> figueroa : did you tried to install driver from system>hardware drivers
[22:50] <anygivenname> blackshirt: ping works like: ping google.com ?
[22:50] <linuzo> figueroa, type lsmod | grep nvidia
[22:51] <Hexbomber> blah, okay thanks. :(

[22:51] <MrNibbles> hi guys, quick questions
[22:52] <hal> ok thank you rypervenche - I think I have it :)
[22:52] <MrNibbles> ive just installed 10.10 netbook edition on my media machine
[22:52] <blackshirt> anygivenname: it maybe you not ready to browse...
[22:52] <MrNibbles> but i cant seem to work out how to disable desktop hardware acceleration
[22:52] <sofaking88> Does anyone know how to enable the ethernet? It was working before! And it's enabled in bios, but nothing is working... :(
[22:53] <anygivenname> blackshirt: what do u mean?
[22:53] <rypervenche> hal: I run "java -jar program.jar" in my terminal to get my programs to work. Good luck.
[22:53] <MrNibbles> it could previously be disabled by going to appearance prefs and setting visual effects to none
[22:53] <anygivenname> blackshirt: ethernet port is blinking.....
[22:53] <hal> rypervenche: I think the command is javac - for java console
[22:53] <Yerushalmi> So yeah... opening up vlc still gives me  a segmentation fault. Even without the file.
[22:53] <intrader> Anyone, after recent 10.10 automatic update  (couple of days ago), my laptop is running the fans more as the CPU load has increased to over 50%. This laptop was running speedily until that update.
[22:53] <simplyseth> sofaking88: what happens if you do "dhclient eth0" ?
[22:53] <blackshirt> anygivenname: you maybe still can't connect to internet, it's true ?
[22:54] <Yerushalmi> Tweedle, trojan_spike, any ideas?
[22:54] <enrico__> .
[22:54] <rypervenche> intrader: What is your laptop model?
[22:54] <sofaking88> simplyseth: How do you do that?
[22:55] <trojan_spike> Yerushalmi, what's the error message?
[22:55] <simplyseth> sofaking88: umm errr .. ummm .. do you have a network  icon thingie in your status bar ?
[22:55] <anygivenname> blackshirt: yes can't.....how do I know the MAC address of the ethernet adapter?
[22:55] <intrader> rypervenche, it is an old Dell Inspiron 8200 with 1GB of memory
[22:55] <Yerushalmi> Segmentation fault. That's it.
[22:55] <sofaking88> simplyseth: Yes
[22:56] <simplyseth> sofaking88: have you tried setting your ethernet settings there ?
[22:56] <|ntegra|> sofaking!
