[13:40] <alkafoo> means state of one-ness
[13:40] <usr13> parapan: unity means  .... alkafoo beet me to it! :)
[13:41] <alkafoo> in fact 'Oneness' would probably be the most apt true English way to say it
[13:41] <alkafoo> but that's not as catchy as the Latin-derived, is it
[13:42] <usr13> usr13: I have unity on a PC here and like it a lot.  It is way different, and some don't like it yet, but trust me, it will catch on.
[13:42] <parapan> Sidewinder1: I've been there .....not much help ..LTS stands for Long Time Support ......isn't that better ??? ...getting the benefit of updates for 3 years instead of being "forced" to update to the new version each year let's say ????
[13:43] <parapan> alkafoo: usr13 : thanks ...but thenthe LTS version is better correct ???
[13:43] <usr13> I think unity means togetherness or the state of everything being in one spot.
[13:44] <alkafoo> parapan: LTS is for 'long term support', so for most people yes it's a better idea
[13:44] <Sidewinder1> parapan, It's all a matter of taste; I don't prefer upgrading every 6 mos. Again, that's me; If it ain't broke, don't fix it. :-)
[13:44] <alkafoo> usr13: semantics =)
[13:44] <jamiewan> Unity is the state of being undivided or unbroken.
[13:44] <jamiewan> !topic
[13:45] <parapan> Sidewinder1: exactly my point > I had bad experience when upgrading the OS on the laptop ...2 times tried .....2 broken systems I got ...on a LAPTOP ....on a desktop PC ...it worked like a charm with no problems ...
[13:45] <usr13> parapan: I don't know if I would call it "better", it is good and what you might call a bit more conservative in relation to stability or sort of cutting edge rather than  bleeding edge.  It's hard to define.
[13:46] <andybrine> Hey everyone
[13:46] <Sidewinder1> parapan, So then, go with Lucid. My upgrade path has been: Gutsy, Hardy, Lucid and I'm "Happy as a Clam."
[13:46] <xinau> hi
[13:46] <xinau> hi alll
[13:46] <andybrine> has anyone here got a Microsoft Lifecam and used it with ubuntu?
[13:46] <xinau> :)
[13:46] <parapan> usr13: even so, it's crystal clear ...if I want more stability the LTS is the choise ...if I want latest implemented technology I'll go for the last development correct ???
[13:46] <xinau> any on here ?
[13:46] <FloodBot1> xinau: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:46] <xinau> is it possible to install ubuntu on a compact flash card (NOT USB) ?
[13:46] <parapan> Sidewinder1: thanks a lot bro'
[13:46] <Sidewinder1> xinau, Only about 1,602
[13:46] <andybrine> I am having issues with the syncing of the audio
[13:47] <xinau> Sidewinder1: ?
[13:47] <Sidewinder1> parapan, My pleasire. :-)
[13:47] <xinau> Sidewinder1: I don't understand what is 1,602 ?
[13:47] <parapan> usr13: thank's man; long live the penguin !
[13:48] <Sidewinder1> xinau, There are currently 1,604 users logged into this channel, currently.
[13:48] <xinau> hmmm
[13:48] <executionist_> lol
[13:48] <xinau> ok, the question is : Can I install Ubuntu by a compact flash disk ?
[13:48] <marko_> hello, i'm using an asus K52J laptop with 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 12) and 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GT218 [GeForce 310M] (rev a2) and the drivers program shows that the nvidia driver is enabled but not in use. How do i fix that?
[13:48] <marko_> ubuntu 11.04
[13:48] <andybrine> has anyone had any issues recording video from their webcam? I am trying to record and audio just does not want to sync
[13:49] <alkafoo> xinau: onto, yes, though there are considerations
[13:49] <alkafoo> andybrine: what res is the video?
[13:49] <rigved> marko_: are you using 11.04?
[13:49] <usr13> parapan: The chart on this site  might help you decide:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS
[13:49] <alkafoo> marko_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[13:49] <marko_> rigved, yes
[13:50] <SamLondon> quick query about wireless. I installed 11.04 on my dad's PC and wireless was working fine....then it starting working only intermittently.....then it stopped completely. However I suggested he try booting the operating system off the iso cd....and it worked again. Anyone got any ideas why?
[13:50] <andybrine> alkafoo in this case the res does not matter as i have tried all res and still an audio sync problem
[13:50] <alkafoo> andybrine: it could matter, but if you know everything I don't guess I can help you
[13:51] <snow_ru> hi
[13:51] <yeats> xinau: even if you could, there's probably not a(n easy) way to have your computer boot from it - I would stick to USB if possible
[13:51] <alkafoo> snow_ru: hi
[13:51] <snow_ru> how to installl ubuntu on a flash card ?
[13:51] <snow_ru> compactflash card
[13:51] <rigved> marko_: this is not a bug. use ccsm to enable some effects like wobbly windows. that will make use of your nvidia card.
[13:51] <alkafoo> SamLondon: is it PCI?  TAke it out and
[13:51] <snow_ru> I meant, by a compact flash card
[13:51] <alkafoo> SamLondon: take it out and put it back in, make sure it's securely placed
[13:51] <andybrine> alkafoo, no i dont know everything at all., I have just tested it with all resolutions from the highest till the lowest and still get the issue
[13:52] <alkafoo> andybrine: have you checked online to see if your hardware is known as flaky?
[13:52] <usr13> pretty much... yea, cutting edge vs bleeding edge
[13:52] <alkafoo> snow_ru: same way AFAIK
[13:52] <parapan> usr13: yeap ..thank you ....support until April 2013 for desktop version will do fine for me :D
[13:52] <SamLondon> he's using a USB dongle
[13:52] <snow_ru> AFAIK ?
[13:52] <andybrine> alkafoo: no I havent, where can i find that out?
[13:52] <SamLondon> what confuses me is that (a) his laptop can connect fine and (b) as i say, when he ran Ubuntu off the CD, the wireless immediately worked again.
[13:52] <snow_ru> just burn iso to the flashcard and boot by the compactflashcard
[13:53] <snow_ru> ?
[13:53] <snow_ru> ?
[13:53] <FloodBot1> snow_ru: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:53] <parapan> does anyone know if the Microsoft exchange connector is working now with ubuntu mail client ??
[13:53] <alkafoo> andybrine: http://www.google.com/search?q=INSERTCAMERAMODEL%20out%20of%20sync
[13:53] <snow_ru> ?
[13:53] <Sidewinder1> parapan, You gonna' dual-boot or just jump right on in?
[13:53] <alkafoo> snow_ru: you want to install _from_ compact flash?
[13:53] <yeats> snow_ru: even if you could get ubuntu on the flash card, there's probably not a(n easy) way to have your computer boot from it - I would stick to USB if possible
[13:53] <usr13> parapan: That chart helps you plan for the future, you can see when you will be wanting or needing to do a distribution upgrade.
[13:53] <andybrine> alkafoo, ok thanks
[13:53] <rigved> parapan: you can upgrade to the next LTS: 12.04 LTS, anytime after april 2012, which is much before april 2013.
[13:53] <parapan> Sidewinder1: not a chance Ubuntu alone and W7 running in a VirtulBox box :D
[13:54] <snow_ru> yeats: the problem is that my computer does not have an option to boot from USB
[13:54] <snow_ru> :(
[13:54] <parapan> rigved: yeap , correct ..only to have the proper time to do so :D
[13:54] <snow_ru> just have an option to boot from a "Generic Compact flash card"
[13:54] <Sidewinder1> parapan, I don't do "virtual" so I have no clue.
[13:54] <yeats> snow_ru: ah - well, then try and see
[13:55] <snow_ru> which program do we use to write iso image to the flashcard ?
[13:55] <snow_ru> and make it bootable , of course
[13:55] <yeats> snow_ru: I would try unetbootin
[13:55] <rigved> parapan: just make sure that you have enough cpu speed and ram space for w7 because it will need a lot, especially in a VM.
[13:55] <Sidewinder1> !unetbootin | snow_ru
[13:56] <parapan> Sidewinder1: ok ....I need a virtualization on W7 since the mail client of ubuntu it's not working with our Microsoft Exchange Server .....I know it was a developemnt for a ME connector but ...didn't tried for 2 years by now ...and originally it was not working ..
[13:56] <Sidewinder1> K
[13:56] <SamLondon> anyone have any thoughts on this wireless issue? what might cause wireless to start working only intermittently, then stop completely if it was working fine originally?
[13:56] <snow_ru> Sidewinder1: It's not USB
[13:56] <parapan> rigved: I'm running it now also ....it is true, at the boot I cannot aford to do anything else on Ubuntu ...otherwise it will get blocked .....
[13:57] <snow_ru> it's compact flashcard Sidewinder1
[13:57] <usr13> SamLondon: Laptop?
[13:57] <Sidewinder1> snow_ru, Sorry, I'm trying to follow too many conversations... :-(
[13:57] <SamLondon> no, desktop.
[13:57] <yeats> snow_ru: the procedure would be the same
[13:57] <parapan> again ...doea anyone know if the Ubuntu mail client is working with a Microsoft Exchange server ????
[13:57] <ActionParsnip> parapan: http://fourforces.wordpress.com/2008/02/04/setup-mozilla-thunderbird-to-work-with-microsoft-exchange-server/
[13:57] <alkafoo> parapan: why wouldn't it
[13:57] <yeats> snow_ru: understand, I don't know that it will work, just that that's the way I would try doing it ;-)
[13:58] <xangua> parapan: if you want to use hotmail with evolution or other mail cliente, i recomend you to use pop3
[13:58] <parapan> alkafoo: I tried with Evolution client ...didn't worked with our ME Server ...
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> parapan: then use thunderbird
[13:59] <parapan> xangua: pop3 it's out of the question on my server ...
[13:59] <alkafoo> parapan: you probably didn't configure it as required, then
[13:59] <xangua> ActionParsnip: interesting, tried yourself¿
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> parapan: there are loads of mail clients for Ubuntu
[13:59] <rigved> parapan: i had heard that evolution did have ms exchange support. i remember it being discussed in UDS O.
[13:59] <alkafoo> parapan: seriously?
[13:59] <parapan> ActionParsnip: good to see ya again > I'll give that link a try ....10x
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> xangua: no but if you check this: http://duckduckgo.com/?q=thunderbird+exchange+server   it seems a lot of folks say it can
[13:59] <usr13> SamLondon: Intermitten problems are the hardest to solve.  I had a laptop like that, I nearly gave up on it, but finally, it just started working again and hasn't stopped in a while.  It is the laptop that the XYL uses in the living room and it gets used all the time.  It almost never fails her any more.  For a while I had a wireless bridge on it.
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> parapan: see the link above
[13:59] <parapan> K
[14:00] <parapan> thank you all >I'll come back with questions if any :D
[14:00] <Sidewinder1> parapan, Guess you already tried messin' w/Thunderbird.
[14:00] <parapan> Sidewinder1: once ...long time ago :D
[14:00] <Sidewinder1> parapan, Best of luck. :D
[14:00] <usr13> SamLondon: Waht WiFi card does it have?
[14:05] <usr13> ls
[14:08] <Jackneill> i wanna setup a hobby server for me. i use lampp, but only sudo can access the /var/www folder. in gui i cant use sudo, how can i fix it?

[14:10] <th0r> Abhinav1: add it to /etc/modules
[14:11] <th0r> Abhinav1: just put b43 on a line by itself
[14:11] <Abhinav1> ok let me try
[14:11] <Abhinav1> th0r: thanks
[14:11] <alkafoo> !ifitworksitworks
[14:11] <Yvonne1> Didnt use this comp for a while.. now it needs an update. still ubuntu 9.04. But i cant install anything, cuz its no longer supported. how can i do the upgrade?

[14:12] <xukun> I have raid1 disk created with mdadm. now I booted using live cd. How can mount the raid1 disk's?
[14:12] <Sidewinder1> Yvonne1, Back-up your /home to external and fresh install 10.04.
[14:13] <Sidewinder1> Yvonne1, Or: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades#Why%20choosing%20a%20fresh%20install
[14:14] <Sidewinder1> oops; too slow. ;D
[14:14] <Yvonne1> kk. i will take a look, but it keeps saying i cant update:S
[14:16] <ActionParsnip> Yvonne1: i'd go for a clean install
[14:16] <Theishi> i created a program and put it in /usr/bin, but when i try to run it ubuntu thinks i want to run something else that isn't installed. Any way to get ubuntu to run the file and ignore the other program of a similiar name?
[14:16] <Yvonne1> bu they advice against that ;)
[14:16] <xukun> ActionParsnip, can u please help me access my raid1 disk?
[14:17] <ActionParsnip> xukun: i don't use softraid, sorry
[14:17] <th0r> Theishi: try using the full path and filename
[14:17] <alkafoo> Theishi: /usr/local/bin/ would be more appropriate
[14:17] <xukun> ActionParsnip, np
[14:17] <Theishi> alkafoo: that will work, but defeats the purpose, i do not want to type that each time
[14:17] <Theishi> th0r: anyway i could type it faster then that
[14:17] <alkafoo> Theishi: you shouldn't have to, it should defeat the problem
[14:18] <joki3> How do i check what driver my blackbuntu machine is running? How do i check if it's either nvidia or nouvea itself who is managing my graphic card?
[14:18] <Theishi> oh opps sorry
[14:18] <alkafoo>  /usr/local/bin/ should be first in your path
[14:18] <Theishi> i placed it is /home/me/bin
[14:18] <alkafoo> joki3: lsmod, lspci -k
[14:18] <joki3> alkafoo: thank you
[14:18] <alkafoo> joki3: lsmod | grep -i nvidia, rather
[14:18] <th0r> Theishi: then create a link from there to /usr/local/bin
[14:19] <Theishi> hmm ok
[14:19] <yeats> !derivatives | joki3
[14:19] <alkafoo> you should be able to just copy it there
[14:19] <xukun> can somebody please help me access my software raid1 disk's?
[14:19] <joki3> I got it guys. Thanks
[14:21] <Theishi> th0r: it doesn't work, i think it needs to rescan the folder, anyway i can do this without loggin in and out?
[14:21] <alkafoo> Theishi: what doesn't work
[14:21] <th0r> Theishi: are you trying to link the whole folder? Just link your program to /usr/local/bin using teh same name for the link as the program
[14:22] <alkafoo> you should be able to just cp it in there
[14:22] <th0r> Theishi: that way, you can edit/replace/recompile the program as user and won't need root privileges every time
[14:22] <Theishi> th0r: thats what i did
[14:23] <th0r> Theishi: make sure your program is marked executable. The link should work
[14:23] <gekker> hi all, have a problem with oneiric not rebooting unless I delete /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket
[14:23] <ActionParsnip> gekker: ask in #ubuntu+1 for oneiric support
[14:23] <gekker> seems the dbus daemon gets wedged
[14:23] <gekker> ActionParsnip, thanks
[14:24] <th0r> Theishi: you know you need to use sudo to create the link, right?
[14:24] <Legend_Xeon> Port 3000 seems to be open on my ubuntu. How do i check which application is using that port?

[14:28] <fdasdfs> hi, some of my harddrives aren't detected in ubuntu but they are in windows 7, help?
[14:28] <tom9876543> can someone help me with ubunutu 11.04 firewall????
[14:28] <Jackneill> lol
[14:29] <Jackneill> i installed phpmyadmin but i cant access it in localhost/phpmyadmin
[14:29] <MonkeyDust>  fdasdfs what's the output of the command mount?
[14:29] <fdasdfs> MonkeyDust the harddrives aren't listed in /dev/
[14:29] <alkafoo> fdasdfs: they aren't listed by sudo fdisk -l ?
[14:30] <fdasdfs> let me see
[14:30] <Sidewinder1> !ntfs | fdasdfs
[14:30] <alkafoo> Sidewinder1: isn't that all included by default?
[14:30] <alkafoo> I mean I know it's fun to botspam, but...
[14:30] <mirandaim> how will 32x32 .png images for older apps be displayed in unity :P
[14:30] <fdasdfs> MonkeyDust no they aren't listed with sudo fdisk
[14:30] <mainemike> anyone help with an rsyslog custom config problem?
[14:30] <alkafoo> fdasdfs: are they external drives?
[14:31] <mirandaim> the .desktop menu items with 32x32 .png images
[14:31] <Sidewinder1> alkafoo, If your typing was as bad as mine you'd love the bot too. :-)
[14:31] <fdasdfs> No they are internal sata drives
[14:31] <Jackneill> i installed phpmyadmin but i cant access it in localhost/phpmyadmin
[14:31] <alkafoo> I do love bots, but I doubt the info linked is going to help
[14:31] <alkafoo> fdasdfs: what capacity?
[14:31] <fdasdfs> alkafoo 750 and 500 GB
[14:31] <Vidar> nobody with any experience with ubuntu on hyperv?
[14:31] <alkafoo> Vidar: eww? =)
[14:32] <alkafoo> fdasdfs: have they ever worked with your Ubuntu?
[14:32] <fdasdfs> I have 4 HDDs, a 64gb SSD that is detected, a 500gb that is detected, a 500gb that isn't, and a 750 gb that isn't
[14:32] <Vidar> im not extremely rich you know
[14:32] <fdasdfs> alkafoo I just installed ubuntu
[14:32] <Vidar> i only can afford 2 servers at the moment so hyper-v is my only option
[14:33] <alkafoo> fdasdfs: they're all NTFS as far as you know?
[14:33] <alkafoo> Vidar: should've afforded a Unix server =P
[14:33] <imnichol> is there a channel for the 11.10 beta?
[14:33] <fdasdfs> The 500gb and 750 gb are ntfs, but again they aren't showing up in /dev/
[14:33] <auronandace> !11.10
[14:33] <alkafoo> Vidar: try asking #windows-server or ##windows
[14:33] <Vidar> well anyway i need my ubuntu to shut down on hyper-v on command
[14:33] <vercingetorix> Hi, when trying to use different themes on ubuntu, I notice that the window controls are the same boxy gray thing despite changing the themes I downloaded. what is wrong/am i missing? looks like the default gnome for low-res or something..
[14:34] <Vidar> ill take a look thx
[14:34] <alkafoo> fdasdfs: I wonder if they could be GPT, and your install is missing gpt support in the kernel
[14:34] <mainemike> anyone help with rsyslog?
[14:34] <vercingetorix> everything else in the themes (icons, window borders, etc all work)
[14:34] <alkafoo> mainemike: what about it
[14:34] <blackcatnekonegr> Hello I need to manually delete two lines in sources.list in ubuntu 10.10., how I do that?
[14:34] <fdasdfs> alkafoo I am running 10.04 and when installing it gave GPT as option when partioning so I assume it is installed
[14:35] <rigved> mainemike: just list your problem(s) and if anyone can, they will help.
[14:35] <bazhang> blackcatnekonegr, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[14:35] <blackcatnekonegr> Hello I need to manually delete two lines in sources.list in ubuntu 10.10., how I do that? If I try to run Synaptic it gives me an error message and refuses to load
[14:35] <mainemike>  need help with a conf file...in the file I have %$YEAR%%$MONTH% problem is that my file has exactly that instead of YYYYMM
[14:36] <alkafoo> fdasdfs: well you're probably just missing some driver
[14:36] <rigved> blackcatnekonegr: what is the error message?
[14:36] <faLUCE> hi, how can I hide show a panel with command line ?
[14:36] <alkafoo> fdasdfs: might hit up ##linux
[14:37] <alkafoo> faLUCE: does the panel have a hiding function built into it?
[14:37] <blackcatnekonegr> bazhang, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list worked, thank you
[14:37] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: should be able to set the hide or not hide using gconf-tool
[14:37] <blackcatnekonegr> bye and thanks
[14:37] <mainemike> my rsyslog conf $template ends with    %$YEAR%$%$MONTH%/web_%$DAY%.log"     -my file is named web%$YEAR%%$MONTH%%$DAY%.log
[14:37] <faLUCE> ActionParsnip: in which way ?
[14:38] <Sidewinder1> fdasdfs, Or you could search http://ubuntuforums.org
[14:38] <mainemike> not really the result I was expecting
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2009/09/21/completely-hide-gnome-panel/
[14:38] <fdasdfs> I have tried searching Sidewinder1
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: shows the syntax of the command and how it relates to the structure in gconf-editor. You can use that to make a command (or two) to show / hise the panel etc
[14:39] <faLUCE> ActionParsnip: I tried gconftool-2 --set --type integer /apps/panel/toplevels/top_panel_screen0/auto_hide_size 0 but it doesn't work
[14:39] <faLUCE> ActionParsnip: I need to hide or show panels "on the fly"
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: thats the autohide size/ I only gave the link as it shows the SYNTAX
[14:40] <Sidewinder1> fdasdfs, Sorry I could not be of more help. :-(
[14:40] <fdasdfs> Sidewinder1 your bots won't help you now
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: run gconf-editor and you can see what thing needs setting, then CHANGE the command in the link to reflect.
[14:41] <Sidewinder1> fdasdfs, You're right; I'm done.
[14:41] <xukun> I installed mdadm using live, but  cat /proc/mdstat does not show the raid device
[14:41] <faLUCE> ActionParsnip: gconf-editor is a gui app. I want to hide/show a panel with a command line
[14:41] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: if you actually read the command, you would see it isn't what you needed.
[14:41] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: jesus.
[14:41] <watermark> I'm doing a reinstall of 10.04.3 server and it's being at "cleaning up" for a while now with a lot of disk activity.  Does it do a fsck at this stage or something else?
[14:41] <dougl> where do I find boot-repair in 11.04?
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: the command is WORKED OUT using the GUI app, once you know which item in gconf-editor needs changing, you can change the command in the page I gave to reflect the item. You can then make a script or alias which you can then use in command line to change the entry. You are only using the GUI app to INITIALLY reseaerch the layout of the settings to see which folder stores the hide etc setting.
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> fdasdfs: Do you get it now?

[14:45] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: I don't have gconf here as I am only SSHd to my home PC from work so I have given you the knowhow to find out for yourself which value needs changing and how it is changed in command line, which is what you wanted

[14:55] <ActionParsnip> xeNULL: how about something more common, like gedit
[14:55] <xeNULL> gedit works fine
[14:55] <mirandaim> ActionParsnip: i meant, the old gnome-panel displayed 32x32 .png icons but the new unity perhaps has larger icons, how does it display icons of size 32x32, does it zoom them :D
[14:55] <uN1xUbunt> hi all :)
[14:55] <xeNULL> its just apps that use the graphics card
[14:55] <uN1xUbunt> Ubuntu is the best :)
[14:56] <mirandaim> ActionParsnip: because the new icons look considerably larger ;)
[14:56] <uN1xUbunt> George is king :)
[14:56] <ActionParsnip> mirandaim: you mean you want to resize the unity icons?
[14:56] <xeNULL> like glxgears, secondlife, tremulous etc.
[14:56] <gaess> hi there
[14:56] <ActionParsnip> xeNULL: do you have 3D accelleration setup?

[14:58] <ActionParsnip> Teh_Lemon: 64bit flash for 64bit OS
[14:58] <alkafoo> gaess: generally if what you want to talk about is what the /topic of the channel says the channel is about, it's a safe bet
[14:59] <Jackneill> pici: how to?
[14:59] <ActionParsnip> mirandaim: should be fine
[14:59] <alkafoo> Triorieel: what media did you install from
[14:59] <xeNULL> the graphics card I have is an ATI Radeon HD 5450
[14:59] <Triorieel> alkafoo, minimal cd...so everything came over the net with apt-gets
[14:59] <xeNULL> if that helps
[14:59] <id10t> 'lo all ...

[14:59] <Teh_Lemon> ActionParsnip: if it works, i love you
[15:00] <uN1xUbunt> Ubuntu THe BEST !!!!!
[15:00] <mirandaim> ActionParsnip: does it pick the app list from /usr/share/applications i mean unity or some other location
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> Teh_Lemon: 64bit flash is groovy, not sure abot the video chat
[15:00] <Teh_Lemon> should i go x86 chrome?
[15:00] <oCean> uN1xUbunt: we know, please stay on topic. General chat is in #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> mirandaim: dash does but you can manually make a .desktop and drag it to the bar if you want
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> Teh_Lemon: no, use 64bit chrome
[15:01] <id10t> anyone familiar wtih using apt-mirror to create a local ubuntu mirror?  I'm wondering about symlinking to apache and having different ubuntu sources listed ... archive.canocial (for partnet) vs archive.ubuntu (for main, multiverse, etc).  how do i deal with that?
[15:01] <Teh_Lemon> okay
[15:01] <Jackneill> pici: actionparsnip: i did but i get 404 again.
[15:01] <xeNULL> I think I might just go back to the dark corners of crunchbang
[15:01] <xeNULL> lol
[15:01] <Pici> Jackneill: you need to restart apache after doing that.
[15:01] <Yvonne1> kk.. if i now try to upgrade.. ( i wanna upgrade from jaunty to karmic etc etc) but it says: an upgrade from jaunty to lucid is not supported.
[15:01] <Jackneill> thanks pici and actionparsnip
[15:02] <xeNULL> brb I will try upgrading to natty and see if that helps at all
[15:02] <mirandaim> ActionParsnip: heard they have changed the place where dash would show up from panel to the left bar :D
[15:03] <Triorieel> alkafoo, Having to run this on my other machine as I can't load anything in the gui under ubuntu
[15:03] <Teh_Lemon> hm... still nothing
[15:03] <xeNULL> I will be back...
[15:04] <alkafoo> Triorieel: just curious
[15:04] <alkafoo> Triorieel: you can try manually running the applications that haven't run as they should have
[15:04] <alkafoo> Triorieel: the panel, nautilus, etc., but really it might be worth considering installing from the ordinary install image
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> Jackneill: I just gave the command to do what Pici suggested ;)
[15:05] <Ristovski> Hello , I just installed ubuntu to a external HDD but I cant bbot from it , I changes the BIOS settings so it boots from Removable Dev. (Theres nothing else only my internal HDD that i dont wanna boot from
[15:05] <Teh_Lemon> ActionParsnip: youtube works, but i cannot start facebook video chat. i have webcam, its built in, im on acer aspire 5738ZG.
[15:06] <Teh_Lemon> i dont have video chat button in chat window, i used to have in on windows 7
[15:06] <edbian> Ristovski: what happens when you boot?
[15:06] <Ristovski> edbian " I cant
[15:06] <ActionParsnip> Teh_Lemon: does the webcam show in cheese?
[15:06] <Ristovski> it doesnt boot it boots windows instead
[15:06] <edbian> Ristovski: What happens when you try?
[15:06] <Teh_Lemon> hm...
[15:06] <edbian> Ristovski: Where is windows installed?
[15:06] <Teh_Lemon> it shows in skype
[15:06] <Ristovski> windows boots up
[15:06] <WhatTheQt> hi
[15:06] <Teh_Lemon> didnt install cheese on this installation
[15:06] <Ristovski> edbian : internal HDD
[15:06] <edbian> Ristovski: If you're talking to me please use my name.
[15:06] <karmst> Hello
[15:06] <tazle> how do I set the kernel that is booted by default in Ubuntu's auto-generated grub2 config file?
[15:06] <Triorieel> alkafoo, This is a fresh install because I was having these problems on my last install and I was hoping it was a problem with takign the hard drive from another machine and putting it into my new one
[15:06] <tazle> i.e. what should I edit instead of grub.cfg?
[15:06] <Ristovski> edbian: to an internal HDD
[15:06] <karmst> I'm having a networking issue with Natty
[15:06] <edbian> Ristovski: Then you're not telling the BIOS to boot the external.
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> Teh_Lemon: good enough, not sure what facebook's standing is on Linux. The group I posted may be able to advise
[15:07] <MonkeyDust> I cant use my webcam in Skype, either, also on an Acer
[15:07] <WhatTheQt> is there a way to get the motherboard's total amount of memory slots, as well as the used slots, size of RAM module, etc, from Ubuntu? Like CPU-Z on Windows?
[15:07] <Ristovski> edbian: I am I set teh first boot prioritz to Removable DEv (my external HDD is USB)
[15:07] <karmst> I was able to join my Natty to a windows domain using like-wise open
[15:07] <Teh_Lemon> you posted one discussion...
[15:07] <Teh_Lemon> not group
[15:07] <Teh_Lemon> :/
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> Teh_Lemon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8u49W2NmA-Y   maybe
[15:07] <id10t> WhatTheQt, sudo lshw -html > somefile.html
[15:07] <karmst> however when I go to places / network / Windows the domain does not appear
[15:07] <karmst> I can ping all DC's though
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> Teh_Lemon: http://www.buzzom.com/2011/07/facebook-video-chat-not-supported-on-linux/
[15:08] <Ristovski> edbian: is there spmething I can do?
[15:08] <edbian> Ristovski: Sometimes the BIOS will list the removable hdd with the other harddrives.  I suggest you hunt around your bios some more.  If you boot a liveCD I know a command we can run that will prove that grub is installed.
[15:08] <alkafoo> Triorieel: your last install from the same minimal image?
[15:08] <nicofs> Ristovski, edbian the external hdd might not have the boot bit - or however it's called...
[15:08] <Ristovski> edbian: I cant boot even boot from USB stick so its a bios problem
[15:08] <edbian> nicofs: What is a 'boot bit' ?
[15:09] <Teh_Lemon> ActionParsnip: im new on ubuntu. i used it before but never gave it a big try
[15:09] <Teh_Lemon> will wine work
[15:09] <Teh_Lemon> ?
[15:09] <nicofs> edbian, or does that only apply to usb keys...?
[15:09] <karmst> you probably don't have an MBR created
[15:09] <Ristovski> edbian: Its a bios problem else I could boot my USB stick
[15:09] <edbian> Ristovski: agreed.  Look in more detail at your bios.  Go into every menu and setting.
[15:09] <Teh_Lemon> or it shows to target i am using linux after all
[15:09] <WhatTheQt> id10t: thanks
[15:09] <edbian> nicofs: I don't even know what the 'boot bit' is!
[15:09] <Triorieel> alkafoo, No, that was a proper install from ubuntu versions ago that has been kept upto date
[15:09] <Ristovski> edbian: I was , I tried everything , and still i cant find my HDD in it
[15:09] <watermark> I'm doing a reinstall of 10.04.3 server and it's being at "cleaning up" for a while now with a lot of disk activity. Does it do a fsck at this stage or something else?
[15:09] <rumpe1> nicofs, linux doesn't care about the boot-flag
[15:09] <karmst> edbian: he's talking about the MBR
[15:09] <semitones_tea> IdleOne: can i pm real quick?
[15:10] <edbian> karmst: The 'boot bit' is the MBR?  That does not make sense
[15:10] <nicofs> rumpe1, linux can't care if it doesn't boot in the firs place...
[15:10] <karmst> there is no such thing as a boot bit
[15:10] <alkafoo> Triorieel: and it was having the same problem as you're having now from a fresh install?
[15:10] <Ristovski> edbian: I feel so badly...
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> Teh_Lemon: could try it
[15:10] <rumpe1> nicofs, it doesn't care ever
[15:10] <IdleOne> semitones_tea: anytime
[15:11] <[THC]AcidRain> man same issue as last night. if i dont use the uuid in fstab, then my external drives are mounted as Server2_ Server_ instead of Server and Server2
[15:11] <Triorieel> alkafoo, correct...although I took it further on the last install and used drivers from the nvidia site then tried going back to the distribution drivers and that created a huge mess I felt like starting from scratch with
[15:11] <edbian> Ristovski: sorry to hear that
[15:11] <Teh_Lemon> thanks ActionParsnip. if it works, you get a cookie :D
[15:11] <Ristovski> edbian: thanks...
[15:11] <karmst> yes the MBR is what tells your drive what sector your grub is in
[15:11] <karmst> or whatever boot manager you are using
[15:12] <Ristovski> edbian: i wish there was some way to boot from it , I really love Ubuntu 10.04 but Im forced to use Windows
[15:12] <karmst> why can't you?
[15:12] <[THC]AcidRain> but if i DO use uuid,then they are mounted what appears to be 2 times. at Server Server and Server2 server2
[15:12] <Ristovski> edbian: since I cant boot from External HDD
[15:12] <[THC]AcidRain> is there any sure way around this issue?
[15:12] <karmst> just write GRUB from scratch?
[15:12] <Ristovski> karmst: read up
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> Ristovski: Ubuntu isn't always the solution
[15:12] <edbian> Ristovski: There is.  Mess with the bios settings.  Try removing the internal hdd (physically disconnect it)
[15:12] <Ristovski> edbian: laptop...
[15:12] <karmst> don't do all that
[15:13] <edbian> Ristovski: You can still remove the hdd.  (sometimes it's hard)
[15:13] <karmst> edit fstab to mount your OS partition
[15:13] <id10t> anyone familiar wtih using apt-mirror to create a local ubuntu mirror?  I'm wondering about symlinking to apache and having different ubuntu sources listed ... archive.canocial (for partnet) vs archive.ubuntu (for main, multiverse, etc).  how do i deal with that?
[15:13] <Ristovski> edbian: nah i dont wanna do that...
[15:13] <edbian> Ristovski: ok
[15:13] <karmst> then edit grub to use that as the boot
[15:13] <karmst> pretty easy
[15:13] <A_J> can tell me any sound cards which work well with ubuntu
[15:13] <edbian> karmst: he needs to edit the bios, not grub
[15:13] <[THC]AcidRain> karmst
[15:13] <Yvonne1> why cant i upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10?? It still keeps checking all the updates and it only wants to install the latest version, and that i cant do cuz its not supported..
[15:13] <[THC]AcidRain> can you help me. you seem to know a great deal about fstab
[15:13] <Ristovski> edbian: yeah ...
[15:13] <karmst> sure
[15:14] <iceroot> !upgrade | Yvonne1
[15:14] <alkafoo> A_J: ##hardware can
[15:14] <iceroot> !eol
[15:14] <A_J> thanks alkafoo
[15:14] <iceroot> Yvonne1: also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[15:14] <karmst> edbian: he doesn't need to do anything to his bios
[15:14] <karmst> it's linux
[15:14] <watermark> Ynonnel: pretty sure 9.10 is already at eol, so you can't upgrade to it
[15:14] <karmst> you can have it mount a NFS share and boot from it if you would want to
[15:14] <edbian> karmst: I _strongly_ disagree.  He needs to tell the BIOS to boot his external hdd
[15:15] <Ristovski> edbian: is there something I can do? (Sorry for bothering you but I feel like shattered - im trying to boot ubuntu from USB stick and now HDD for 2 weeks)
[15:15] <iceroot> watermark: you must update to 9.10 and then 10.04 (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades)
[15:15] <[THC]AcidRain> ok. if i use fstab and enter them by uuid, my comp 1. tries to boot from them, if i remove them and boot my comp, then it appears to mount them 2 times. at Server Server and Server2 Server2. if i enter them into fstab by /dev/sdf1 then it does NOT try to boot from them. and it mounts them at Server_ Server2_ and it leaves Server and Server2 as an option
[15:15] <[THC]AcidRain> karmst, ^
[15:15] <edbian> Ristovski: You need to understand your bios.  This is not something I can help with.
[15:15] <edbian> Ristovski: alternatively.  Install grub on your internal
[15:15] <karmst> edbian: then you obviously don't know how storage actually works
[15:15] <Yvonne1> 9.10 isnt eol.. but even if i wanted, i cant choose which one i want
[15:15] <Ristovski> edbian: is it safe_
[15:16] <iceroot> Yvonne1: you have to use the upgrade-manager not the update-manager (see links from ubottu )
[15:16] <Yvonne1> ow it is eol, but cant choose one anyway
[15:16] <edbian> karmst: What are you talking about?  Ristovski installed ubuntu on his external.  When he boots he gets windows (installed on an internal).  He needs to edit his bios.
[15:16] <karmst> AcidRain: is it a raid array?
[15:16] <edbian> Ristovski: yes
[15:16] <Jackneill> whats better, emesene or amsn?
[15:16] <edbian> Ristovski: but you have to boot a liveCD / liveUSB
[15:16] <Ristovski> ok
[15:16] <Ristovski> live cd
[15:16] <Ristovski> bye
[15:16] <[THC]AcidRain> karmst, what do you mean by raid array? i have 1 internal drive that SHOULD be booted from first by the bios order. and i have 2 external drives
[15:17] <iceroot> Jackneill: the one you like more
[15:17] <[THC]AcidRain> the 2 external is the issue
[15:17] <alkafoo> things that are EOL still have upgrade instructions available anyways
[15:17] <Yvonne1> and where can i find this upgrade manager?
[15:18] <karmst> what is the first line in your grub?
[15:18] <iceroot> Yvonne1: see the links from ubottu
[15:18] <iceroot> !upgrade | Yvonne1
[15:18] <iceroot> !eol | Yvonne1
[15:18] <[THC]AcidRain> karmst, the first in my grub is the internal drive. yet when the externals are hooked up and i boot my comp, it still tries to boot from them firsdt
[15:18] <luc__> can anybody tell me how to my fix sound on my comp
[15:19] <[THC]AcidRain> karmst, it ONLY tries to boot from them first when i have used their UUID in the fstab. if i dont use that, then it boots from internal
[15:19] <knobydobs> @luc__ what soundcard do you have
[15:19] <[THC]AcidRain> karmst, BUT if i use uuid then it mounts them as Server Server Server2 Server2. what appears to be 2 times
[15:19] <Yvonne1> i did try the link, but i cant do the upgrade..
[15:19] <CyborgSmurf> Could someone help me with crossover cable CAT5, XP and Ubuntu 11.04?
[15:19] <iceroot> CyborgSmurf: just ask your ubuntu related question
[15:19] <luc__> evga nvidia hdmi audio out to tv
[15:19] <Yvonne1> i mean the link with how to upgrade an EOL
[15:20] <alkafoo> luc__: hdmi audio is a fairly common issue IIRC, do some searching online
[15:20] <iceroot> Yvonne1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[15:20] <alkafoo> Yvonne1: why can't you?
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> CyborgSmurf: help in what way?
[15:20] <karmst> that's weird
[15:20] <rigved> [THC]AcidRain: the hard disk boot order is decided by your BIOS settings, not your grub list.
[15:20] <luc__> i have for 6 days now
[15:20] <[THC]AcidRain> karmst, if i could take a ss of my Places menu for you. you would see more what im talking about
[15:21] <Yvonne1> cuz it keeps searching for the nwest upgrade. i cant choose
[15:21] <[THC]AcidRain> rigved, right. sry thats what i mean
[15:21] <[THC]AcidRain> meant*
[15:21] <CyborgSmurf> ActionParsnip: set up IP for both computers... (I am really bad at this so be patient)
[15:21] <knobydobs> @luc__ have a look in the software center
[15:21] <[THC]AcidRain> but what i dont understand. is why is it not being mounted to the folder Server and Server2. it looks like it is creating its own folder Server and Server2 that are not being listed
[15:22] <[THC]AcidRain> brb
[15:22] <CyborgSmurf> ActionParsnip: for playing games (StarCraft)
[15:22] <italomaia> Hi, I'm unable to boot my livecd ubuntu
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> CyborgSmurf: use network manager in the panel. click edit connections. Click wired. click your connection then cick Edit. Set the interface to static
[15:22] <Yvonne1> it keeps saying: an upgrade from jaunty to lucid is not supported
[15:22] <luc__> for what am i looking for
[15:22] <italomaia> it seems xserver is crashing.
[15:22] <CyborgSmurf> ActionParsnip: XP or Ubuntu?
[15:22] <alkafoo> italomaia: maybe it was a bad burn, using a USB stick might be better
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> Yvonne1: you can grab the karmic alternate ISO, MD5 test it, mount it and then upgrade using that
[15:22] <italomaia> alkafoo: i checked. My installed ubuntu stopped working too
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> CyborgSmurf: Ubuntu
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> CyborgSmurf: you are in the ubuntu support channel..
[15:23] <italomaia> alkafoo: i'm trying to boot from livecd to backup what was in my ubuntu local install
[15:23] <knobydobs> fixes patches control centers drivers that sort of thing
[15:23] <italomaia> I think i need to boot from livecd in text mode
[15:23] <italomaia> don't know if ubuntu supports that
[15:24] <alkafoo> italomaia: possibly; use http://www.sysresccd.org/
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> CyborgSmurf: then set the IP to siomething like <IP_ADDRESS> with netmask of <IP_ADDRESS>
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> CyborgSmurf: in Windows set the IP to <IP_ADDRESS> and netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[15:25] <CyborgSmurf> ActionParsnip: static? I cant find a label with that...
[15:25] <italomaia> alkafoo: woa! I'm gonna try that. Thanks =D
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> CyborgSmurf: in the drop down, it will be DHCP, change it to Manual
[15:26] <blizzow> I ran the ubuntu installer off a usb stick I greated with the startup disk creator program.  When I try to run the install it only gives me the option of blowing away the old Windows install or manually partitioning on my own.  There used to be an option to dual boot.  How do I re-enable or get to the dual boot option?

[15:26] <ActionParsnip> Koheleth: sometimes
[15:27] <Koheleth> hope not
[15:27] <jrib> Koheleth: mind your language in this channel and be respective of others
[15:27] <Koheleth> sry

[15:27] <Koheleth> just got kicked of from offtopic cuz he has no sense of humor
[15:27] <oCean> Koheleth: please don't continue that discussion here
[15:28] <jrib> Koheleth: this channel is for ubuntu support, nothing else
[15:28] <Koheleth> geez running 11.120 and sending loads od bugs here
[15:28] <knobydobs> hi i have an ati radeon x600 and i have installed the drivers but when i boot up the moniter says it has been disconnected p.s. i see my bootscreen untill the bootloader starts to come up then the screen goes black
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> Koheleth: oneiric is supported in #ubuntu+1 til release
[15:29] <CyborgSmurf> ActionParsnip: and what about gateway?
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> CyborgSmurf: there isn't one, that's only for web access. You can put <IP_ADDRESS> if you want. Doesn't do anything
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> CyborgSmurf: you may need to leave it blank if it doesn't work
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> CyborgSmurf: actually leave it blank, less confusion
[15:30] <CyborgSmurf> ActionParsnip: I will
[15:30] <CyborgSmurf> ActionParsnip: how do I know if they can find each other over the cable and not the wireless(I have that too)
[15:35] <drehdz> is there a specific channel for 11.10b1?
[15:35] <h00k> drehdz: #ubuntu+1
[15:35] <Pici> drehdz: #ubuntu+1
[15:35] <drehdz> thank you
[15:36] <CyborgSmurf> ActionParsnip: thank you for the help "connection established" fivestars rate ;)
[15:36] <msiemon> I'm kinda a noob how do I get to #ubuntu+1
[15:36] <iceroot> msiemon: /join #ubuntu+1
[15:37] <msiemon> iceroot: Thanks that's almost too easy
[15:38] <mang0> What's the differance between $: sudo apt-get remove PROGRAM and $: sudo apt-get autoremove PROGRAM
[15:38] <iceroot> mang0: remove == remove a package, autoremove = remove all packages which are no longer needed
[15:38] <mang0> iceroot: So if you did autoremove then you don't need to put in a program name?
[15:39] <iceroot> mang0: e.g. you install program a which is pulluing program b, then you remove program a and b is still installed but because it is installed only because of a autoremove will remove it
[15:39] <mastaofdisasta> hello everyone, I'm using the "openntpd" package to setup a simple workstation to server NTP sync
[15:39] <mastaofdisasta> it doesn't work however
[15:39] <mastaofdisasta> I'm using ntpdate and it will not sync
[15:39] <dori922> is rssh still good to use to allow FTP and block SSH?
[15:40] <mang0> iceroot: Gotcha. So basically sudo apt-get autoremove firefox will literally delete any packages to do wtih firefox?
[15:40] <Gerain69> Âñåì äîáðîãî âðåìåíè ñóòîê
[15:40] <stacey> hi folks.  My issue in one line: python -c "import bonobo" ImportError: No module named bonobo
[15:40] <iceroot> mang0: just "sudo apt-get autoremove"
[15:40] <iceroot> mang0: also see "man apt-get"
[15:40] <mang0> iceroot: ah, thankyou :)
[15:41] <magicblaze007> any crontab gurus here:  How frequently is this run? --> 0	7	*	*	*	rm /tmp/xyz.dat
[15:41] <iceroot> mang0: onces a day at 7oclock
[15:41] <iceroot> magicblaze007: ^
[15:42] <magicblaze007> iceroot: thanks a lot
[15:42] <Gerain69> Sorry, is this eng conference?
[15:42] <mang0> iceroot: ?
[15:42] <iceroot> Gerain69: yes
[15:42] <mang0> oh
[15:42] <Pici> stacey: Do you have the python-gnome2 package installed?
[15:42] <iceroot> mang0: wrong nick
[15:42] <mang0>  :P
[15:42] <mang0> yeah k ;)
[15:42] <Pici> Gerain69: This is the offical Ubuntu support channel.
[15:42] <stacey> Pici: according to dpkg -l yes I do
[15:43] <organiks> is there a cmd i can use to increase my network card speed to a more consistant number
[15:43] <Pici> stacey: What release of Ubuntu are you using?
[15:43] <B12f13> hi
[15:44] <iceroot> organiks: you mean to make it faster?
[15:44] <organiks> yes it fluctuates
[15:44] <stacey> Pici: Linux 2.6.27-17-generic kubutnu (linuxmce) 8.10
[15:44] <Gerain69> Who know where rus ubuntu conference, tel me please, i write by phone
[15:45] <Pici> stacey: 8.10 is no longer supported, sorry.
[15:45] <Pici> Gerain69: #ubuntu-ru
[15:45] <iceroot> organiks: lynx ebay.com is imo the only command to make it faster
[15:45] <iceroot> organiks: with other words, you cant make your card faster then it is
[15:45] <organiks> from 54 to 300
[15:45] <stacey> Pici: linuxmce 10.04 is still beta
[15:45] <organiks> no the speed changes
[15:45] <iceroot> organiks: ah you mean to use wifi in n-mode
[15:45] <organiks> yeah
[15:45] <organiks> silly me
[15:45] <iceroot> organiks: does your card support it?
[15:46] <mang0> Do you reckon it's worth doing sudo apt-get dist-upgrade?
[15:46] <organiks> yes
[15:46] <Pici> stacey: linuxmce isn't a supported variant of Ubuntu either. They have their own channel in #linuxmce
[15:46] <iceroot> organiks: and its changing from 300mbit/s to 54mbit/s sometimes? or only runs in 54mbit/s?
[15:46] <stacey> which I tried last night already
[15:46] <organiks> changes but mainly runs in 54mbit mode
[15:47] <iceroot> organiks: you can try another driver but normally wifi is setting the speed doen if the connection-quality is bad
[15:47] <shishire> Running a natty server, how do I change the size of /dev/shm?  None of the guides I can find via google mention grub2, they all edit menu.lst
[15:48] <organiks> connection is full
[15:48] <Gerain69> Ok :) *THUMBS UP*
[15:48] <Phr3d13> i need to set the capture volume of my microphone with alsa, how do i do that?
[15:49] <organiks> its a intel draft n 5100-5300
[15:50] <bill_toulas> wow 1600 users on-line that is something!
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> bill_toulas: come here on 14th october ;)
[15:51] <Phr3d13> i need to set the capture volume of my microphone with alsa, how do i do that?
[15:52] <[THC]AcidRain> ok ive managed to narrow down my issue. regardless how i enter information into fstab. it will always mount my external drives 2 times each
[15:53] <[THC]AcidRain> and as long as my external drives are hooked up to my computer, my comp will try to mount them during boot, and it fails. it trying to do this also causes grub to go crazy and needs me to do a few things
[15:53] <vercingetorix> Hi, when writing scripts for the Notify-OSD, I can't use notify-send since there is none installed on my system for some reason. However, Ubuntu tells me I have notify-osd. I even tried uninstalling notify-osd and reinstalling it. How do I get notify-send, shouldn't it be part of the notify-osd package?
[15:54] <Pici> vercingetorix: you need the libnotify-bin backage.
[15:54] <Pici> *package.
[15:54] <vercingetorix> wait, found something called libnotify-bin, apt-get'ing this first
[15:54] <vercingetorix> yep
[15:55] <nothingspecial> Phr3d13: Type alsamixer, press F4, move to the mic slider with your arrows, press M to unmute if needbe, and use your arrows to set the volume

[15:58] <elb0w`> anyone else installing ubuntu on a macbook have no sound?
[15:59] <ActionParsnip> elb0w`: which macbook?
[15:59] <luc__> can anybody tellme how to  install video drivers a just downloaded from nvidia
[15:59] <elb0w`> ActionParsnip: macbook pro 4,1
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> luc__: boot to root recovery mode, mark the file as executable and run it, its easier to use the additional drivers app in the OS
[16:00] <ikonia> luc__: don't use them from nvidia.com - use the ubuntu drivers
[16:00] <ikonia> luc__: ubuntu ships the same drivers as from nvidia.com in the hardware drivers tool
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> elb0w`: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook4-1/Natty    not seen that?
[16:01] <luc__> i am new to ubuntu so i dont realy know how to do things yet
[16:01] <ActionParsnip> luc__: press alt+2 and type:  driver    and wait
[16:01] <ikonia> ActionParsnip: does that work to open jocky ?
[16:01] <bobweaver> hi there I really messed up this time. I 100% removed NM, so I have no net what so ever I tred to get the .deb wicd file but my python files are not up to date
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> ikonia: yeah i find it an easier way (works afaik)
[16:02] <bobweaver> is there a all in onw nm .deb file
[16:02] <ikonia> ActionParsnip: very useful, thank you
[16:02] <ikonia> bobweaver: can configure the network without network manager
[16:02] <bobweaver> is there a all in one* nm .deb file
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> ikonia: might wanna test it
[16:02] <ikonia> bobweaver: installing a deb is a problem as it will miss the dependencies
[16:02] <bobweaver> ikonia: killed everythink
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> bobweaver: add the ubuntu CD as a repo then you can install from that
[16:03] <ikonia> bobweaver: it didn't kill everythimg, it removed network manager, configure the network in /etc/network/interfaces to get your machine back on the network and fix the issue
[16:03] <ActionParsnip> bobweaver: is the system a laptop?
[16:03] <bobweaver> yea 3.0.10    11.10
[16:03] <ActionParsnip> bobweaver: ask in #ubuntu+1
[16:04] <luc__> i hit alt 2 nothing  happens
[16:04] <ActionParsnip> luc__: alt+f2
[16:06] <luc__> it says could not openlocation
[16:06] <Shasirax> Hey guys
[16:07] <Shasirax> anyone know how to get rid of the 0x80004001 error message with .NET ?
[16:08] <ActionParsnip> luc__: which release are you using?
[16:08] <luc__> 11.04
[16:08] <ActionParsnip> luc__: are you using Unity or Classic session or a none gnome desktop?
[16:08] <luc__> not sure
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> luc__: ok does your desktop have a bar of apps down the left side?
[16:09] <luc__> no
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> luc__: ok lets do it the easy way. Run a terminal and run:  gksudo jockey
[16:09] <nothingspecial> luc__: Describe it please
[16:10] <mang0> How do I open nautilus as root?
[16:10] <mang0> I need to remove something from /mnt/
[16:10] <ActionParsnip> mang0: gksudo nautilus
[16:10] <mang0> ActionParsnip: Cheers.
[16:10] <rumpe1> mang0, terminal: "gksu nautilus"
[16:10] <mang0> rumpe1: Thanks ;)
[16:11] <luc__> nothing happend
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> luc__: did you get asked for a password?
[16:11] <luc__> yes
[16:11] <[THC]AcidRain> so can anyone help me fix my mount problem? i dont know how to fix the external hdd. i guess my system will just try to mount them regardless what i do, during boot
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> luc__: ok try:  gksudo jockey-gtk
[16:12] <[THC]AcidRain> if i want my system to boot properly, i have to hit f12 and select to boot from my internal drive, then i have to skip the mounting of both my external drives
[16:12] <rumpe1> ActionParsnip, do you know the difference or which command is more "secure" w.r.t. to permissions?
[16:12] <ActionParsnip> rumpe1: one uses root's profile, one uses the users
[16:12] <ActionParsnip> rumpe1: they are the same binary but the interpretter uses them differently
[16:14] <wildbat> !fstab | [THC]AcidRain
[16:14] <luc__> a list came up
[16:14] <[THC]AcidRain> wildbat, fstab is epic fail
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> luc__: yay, enable the nvidia driver
[16:14] <[THC]AcidRain> fstab is what is causing all these problems for me i believe
[16:15] <luc__> downloading now
[16:15] <luc__> how do you get the name to come on here
[16:16] <xtcv> hi everyone, i need some help
[16:16] <xtcv> I got a wireless network card that acts funny
[16:16] <xtcv> any ideas?
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> luc__: type a few of the characters of the name and press TAB
[16:17] <jstoone> xtcv: in which way funny?
[16:17] <[THC]AcidRain> xtcv, what version of linux?
[16:17] <ActionParsnip> xtcv: also what wifi chip is it
[16:17] <rumpe1> [THC]AcidRain, if you have to use f12 to start some boot-manager to select the internal drive, set the internal drive in BIOS as boot-device (with higher priority?). If linux asks to skip the external drives, because they couldn't be found, add "noauto" to their fstab-entries
[16:17] <luc__> ActionParsnip, thanks
[16:17] <d0pe> !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[16:17] <d0pe> !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[16:17] <d0pe> !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[16:17] <FloodBot1> d0pe: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:18] <luc__> ActionParsnip, this is my first week using linux
[16:18] <[THC]AcidRain> rumpe1, that actually sounds good. but wouldnt noauto mean that i have to mount them manually? and my internal drive is set as the first drive to boot from
[16:18] <xtcv> ubuntu 11.04 x86  Belkin can't remember which one... some websites load fine, others load REALLY slow, or not at all.  Thing is I can hook up my android phone and wireless thether the wifi through the USB and it's fast as anything
[16:19] <rumpe1> [THC]AcidRain, noauto in fstab prevents mounting at boot-time, it doesn't prevent automount later
[16:19] <luc__> ActionParsnip, need to restart comp now
[16:19] <[THC]AcidRain> rumpe1, that sounds like a perfect fix, hang on, let me do some googling
[16:19] <xtcv> using the ath5k driver
[16:20] <jstoone> xtcv: It's necessarily your chip (hopefully it isn't). Have you tried to contact your ISP?
[16:21] <jstoone> xtcv: Sorry, It's NOT necessarily your chip*
[16:21] <xtcv> well i don't think it's the ISP, as I said, Router -> Phone (wifi) -> USB is full speed (10Mbps)
[16:21] <xtcv> Wifes laptop runs great too....
[16:21] <jstoone> xtcv: Oh, I thought you ment 3G tethering ;)
[16:21] <xtcv> just this PC
[16:22] <jstoone> xtcv: that stinks, let me google a bit.
[16:22] <xtcv> oh I 3G tether all the time... :_)
[16:22] <[THC]AcidRain> rumpe1, so for example: UUID=1d112679-6e31-481f-86eb-f7ec25756183	/media/Server2  ext3  errors=noauto,remount-rw,users,user  0  0
[16:22] <[THC]AcidRain> would this be correct?
[16:23] <jstoone> xtcv: I know! It's awesome!
[16:23] <rumpe1> [THC]AcidRain, no, noauto has nothing to do with errors
[16:24] <aple> Hey guys, how do I remove something without leaving any orphans and such? I'm trying to uninstall virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper and reinstall them completely clean
[16:24] <aple> Tried pip uninstall, but it left ~/.virtualenv
[16:24] <jstoone> xtcv: Did it work/have you tried it in the older versions?
[16:24] <luc_> ActionParsnip, still no sound but now i have the left side bar
[16:24] <rumpe1> [THC]AcidRain, why "users,user" ?
[16:24] <xtcv> It's a Belkin FD57000
[16:24] <[THC]AcidRain> well that means any user can mount, and user can write? right?
[16:25] <xtcv> Yeah in 10.04 it worked great
[16:25] <xtcv> it works well in ::gulp:: Windows 7
[16:25] <llutz> [THC]AcidRain:no, read  "man mount" again
[16:26] <bassliner> hi there. how can i enable a getty on ttyS0 on a todays ubuntu system that doesn't have an /etc/inittab file? thanks.
[16:26] <jstoone> I found this little fella': https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/775104 - could it be your bug?
[16:26] <jstoone> xtcv: Or not you bug like in your bugpost, but do you think it's the same problem?
[16:26] <[THC]AcidRain> oh its group user
[16:26] <llutz> [THC]AcidRain:no, read  "man mount" again
[16:26] <[THC]AcidRain> lol
[16:27] <knobydobs> @luc__ right click the file, go to the permissions tab and let it be run as executable
[16:27] <xtcv> ???? I'm
[16:27] <llutz> [THC]AcidRain: you set permissions using chmod/chown on ext-fs, not via fstab/mount-options
[16:27] <xtcv> confused.....
[16:27] <rumpe1> [THC]AcidRain, man mount: "user: ordinary user can mount  [and only he can] unmount"  "users: allow every user to mount/unmount"
[16:28] <rumpe1> [THC]AcidRain, why not just "defaults,users,noauto" ?
[16:28] <aple> How do I uninstall something without leaving orphans?
[16:28] <[THC]AcidRain> rumpe1, and leave out the errors option?
[16:28] <dougl> I installed windows which trashed my ubuntu install so I ran boot-repair and now ubuntu takes and incredibly long time to boot up... any suggestions?
[16:28] <dougl> ran boot-repair to reinstall grub...
[16:29] <[THC]AcidRain> rumpe1, well honestly i had it somewhat the way you are telling me before hand. then i lost so much faith in myself i downloaded storage device manager from repos. and it added that information in there just like that
[16:29] <[THC]AcidRain> and it was rated 4.5 stars
[16:29] <xtcv> dougl it's always best to install win first then ubuntu
[16:29] <[THC]AcidRain> so i assumed it knew a little more than i did
[16:29] <ThinkT510> aple: try using synaptic and find what you want to remove and select completely remove
[16:29] <ThinkT510> aple: just make sure you know nothing else depends on it
[16:30] <mang0> Is there any sort of colour calibration program for ubuntu? My screen looks seriously messed up o.o
[16:31] <AlessonZaire> I had a similar problem when I was using my on-board video card some months ago
[16:32] <rumpe1> [THC]AcidRain, i don't understand the error-option... why remount readwriteable, if there are some errors? usually you remount readonly (ro) for recovery.
[16:32] <[THC]AcidRain> rumpe1, well i took that out. like i said, that is what storage device manager did, not me
[16:33] <[THC]AcidRain> rumpe1, my next question for you. is why does it show under "Places" the device 2 times?
[16:33] <luc_> knobydobs, it says could not create the archive archive not supported
[16:33] <[THC]AcidRain> yet in /media/ there is only 1 mount point for each one
[16:33] <IdleOne> how do I apt-cache search string with multiple words in it?
[16:34] <rumpe1> [THC]AcidRain, uh... that i don't know.
[16:34] <[THC]AcidRain> mount: /dev/sdc1 already mounted or /media/Server2 busy.mount: according to mtab, /dev/sdc1 is already mounted on /media/Server2
[16:34] <aple> What are some possible reasons Terminal wouldn't recognize "workon" and "lsvirtualenv"?
[16:34] <[THC]AcidRain> that is an error i get when i click on it under "Places"
[16:34] <aple> "Command not found"
[16:34] <knobydobs> ok what type of archive is it
[16:34] <[THC]AcidRain> if i click on the other option under "Places" it actually opens the drive to be browsed
[16:34] <aple> Terminal says virtualenvwrapper is installed, but it's not playing nice :(
[16:34] <knobydobs> @luc__ ok what type of archive is it
[16:34] <Calinou> how can I revert to a older firefox?
[16:35] <Calinou> I can't play Quake Live, not compatible with firefox 6
[16:35] <Calinou> it IS compatible with firefox 3, though, possibly 4 or 5
[16:35] <glebihan> IdleOne, use quotes around the words, apt-cache search "firstword secondword"
[16:35] <[THC]AcidRain> Calinou, in synaptic package manager, you get the option to rollback
[16:35] <luc_> knobydobs, doesnt say but the nvidia  file  looks like paper with writting onit
[16:35] <Calinou> okay, thanks
[16:36] <glebihan> IdleOne, but it may be more efficient to do something like : apt-cache search firstword | grep secondword
[16:36] <oCean> bassliner: I'm not sure, but the other getty processes are started from /etc/init/ttyX - so maybe you can create your own for ttyS0 ?
[16:36] <knobydobs> @luc__ what happens when you double click it?
[16:36] <jstoone> xtcv: Sorry, how did i confuse you?
[16:37] <nishttal2>  I am trying to install Ubuntu on my macbook pro 4,1
[16:37] <nishttal2> and everything seems to be working but sound
[16:37] <bassliner> oCean: thanks!
[16:37] <nishttal2> can someone help?
[16:37] <w1n5ton> How do you remove Banshee from the sound applet in 11.04?
[16:37] <knobydobs> luc_ what happens when you double click it?
[16:38] <ThinkT510> knobydobs: using @ infront of a nick usually prevents it from highlighting that person
[16:38] <IdleOne> glebihan: trying apt-cache search xchat | grep irc and nothing returns.
[16:38] <luc_> do  u want to run nvidia -linuxfile   options are run in term ,display,cancel, run
[16:38] <knobydobs> thanks thinkt510
[16:38] <ThinkT510> np
[16:38] <AlessonZaire> Could anyone please recommend me a good chinese IME for 11.04? Thanks in advance
[16:38] <glebihan> IdleOne, apt-cache search xchat | grep -i irc
[16:38] <knobydobs> luc_ run in terminal
[16:39] <nishttal2> Macbook 4,1 + Ubuntu 10.10 = No Sound...
[16:39] <IdleOne> glebihan: thank you.
[16:39] <glebihan> IdleOne, that'll be case-insensitive, though I'm not sure why you would make such a search
[16:39] <nishttal2> someone please help!
[16:39] <luc_> knobydobs, nothing happens
[16:40] <IdleOne> glebihan: I used xchat and irc as a test because I know xchat exists as a package
[16:40] <knobydobs> luc_ not even a terminal window?
[16:40] <luc_> no
[16:40] <glebihan> IdleOne, ok :) I get it
[16:42] <nishttal2> Macbook 4,1 + Ubuntu 10.10 = No Sound...
[16:42] <nishttal2> someone please help!
[16:42] <knobydobs> luc_ have you enabled it to be run as program
[16:42] <nishttal2> am i in the wrong forum ?
[16:42] <Pici> !patience | nishttal2
[16:43] <Deathvalley122> has anyone ever messed with fail2ban before?
[16:43] <nishttal2> Pici, just making sure if there is different forum for Macbook + Ubuntu
[16:43] <knobydobs> nishttal2 system>administration>additional drivers
[16:43] <luc_> knobydobs, yes
[16:43] <oCean> IdleOne glebihan apt-cache search actually lets you search for multiple strings, so  apt-cache search xchat irc  would yield same result as with the grep usage
[16:44] <knobydobs> luc_ is it a .run file
[16:44] <glebihan> oCean, great, didn't know that. Thanks
[16:44] <IdleOne> oCean: ok so in that case my actual search is not yeilding results because there are none :)
[16:44] <nishttal2> knobydobs, that shows a list of 3 drivers (2 NVIDIa and 1 Broadcom STA wireless)
[16:44] <nishttal2> knobydobs, they are installed
[16:45] <knobydobs> luc_ do you know how to open a folder in terminal
[16:46] <knobydobs> nishttal2 i dont know what to say then - try a google search for macbook pro 4.1 ubuntu sound drivers
[16:46] <luc_> knobydobs, when i dragged it in to terminal it says error run file intended for the linux-x86_64platform but you appear to be running on linux-x86
[16:47] <nishttal2> knobydobs, thanks.. i have tried that
[16:47] <crankharder> anyone know what port ganglia runs on out of the box?
[16:47] <ThinkT510> nishttal2: can you run alsamixer in a terminal then show us the screenshot?
[16:47] <nishttal2> ThinkT510, sure
[16:48] <knobydobs> luc_ it seems you have got the wrong driver for your system look for an x86 driver
[16:48] <luc_> knobydobs, no to open folder in term
[16:49] <Jason2gs> Updated alsa yesterday from the ppa due to WINE not working properly with the sound. Now, if I run both a Flash program in Firefox and an application playing music, only the first one launched will play.
[16:50] <knobydobs> luc_ go up a level from the .run file then right click the folder containing the file. now click open in terminal
[16:50] <ThinkT510> !ppa | Jason2gs
[16:50] <elb0w`> Jason2gs: also you normally like listening to more than one song at a time?

[16:51] <nishttal2> ThinkT510, ActionParsnip : http://imagebin.org/171774
[16:52] <sburwood1> I have a problem with the update manager on an EEE PC.  It presents to me to update libnss and libnss-13d
[16:52] <knobydobs> luc_ now we are getting somewhere - try putting su as a command and then run the .run file
[16:52] <ThinkT510> nishttal2: good, that looks fine (nothing is muted)
[16:53] <thunarguy> How can I overclock ubuntu?
[16:53] <Myrtti> thunarguy: eh, what?
[16:53] <nishttal2> ActionParsnip, that command is uploading something
[16:53] <thunarguy> Myrtti: I would like to overclock my processor in Ubuntu

[16:54] <luc_> knobydobs, where at
[16:54] <thunarguy> How can I overclock my CPU in ubuntu?
[16:54] <jkoudys> ubuntu 11.04, networkmanager: setting up my GSM connection from WINDMobile. It's asking me if I have "mobile internet" or "mobile broadband", but nobody from wind (nor I) know the difference. Which should I choose?
[16:54] <jkoudys> I'm in Toronto if that helps
[16:54] <knobydobs> thunarguy you do it from the bios
[16:54] <thunarguy> knobydobs: Well is there a guide?
[16:54] <knobydobs> luc_ in terminal
[16:55] <thunarguy> knobydobs: ??
[16:55] <knobydobs> thunarguy yh 1 sec
[16:55] <mneptok> thunarguy: it's in the BIOS. the OS has nothing to do with it. thus, any guide will work.
[16:55] <thunarguy> is it safe?
[16:55] <h00k> thunarguy: It's definitely a hardware, not software, setting. It can also be a bad idea.
[16:56] <h00k> thunarguy: maybe check in ##hardware
[16:56] <luc_> knobydobs, not sure what u are askig

[17:03] <Pici> faz_: Please mind your language here.
[17:04] <mneptok> knobydobs: nVidia drivers should not be installed from .run files on Ubuntu. they should be installed via the package manager

[17:10] <erkid> ok
[17:10] <erkid> thx
[17:11] <mneptok> knobydobs: did you try installing the fglrx packages from the package management system?
[17:11] <luc_> knobydobs, how do i run in root
[17:12] <knobydobs> mneptok how?
[17:12] <arnpro> how do I check if a php script is running?
[17:12] <arnpro> by bash
[17:12] <erkid> hellp is says Linux Matrix 2.6.38-11-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 29 19:05:14 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[17:12] <alazare619> ActionParsnip, yes i can ping
[17:12] <erkid> what does this mean ?!
[17:12] <knobydobs> luc_ you cant
[17:12] <mneptok> knobydobs: because if you install that .run file, it is going to need manual reinstallation from a CLI every single time the kernel is updated.
[17:12] <ikonia> erkid: it means your running 32bit
[17:12] <ubuntu_> Linux Lex 11
[17:12] <erkid> and about archtecture ?!
[17:12] <ikonia> ubuntu_: ?
[17:13] <yeats> erkid: i686/i386 means 32 bit
[17:13] <ikonia> erkid: x86
[17:13] <knobydobs> mneptok ahh the run file ran
[17:13] <luc_> knobydobs, so how can i install the driver
[17:13] <ubuntu_> 32 bit
[17:13] <alazare619> the x in 86 is a variable is means it can be 386 486 0r 686
[17:13] <ubuntu_> un stabile
[17:13] <mneptok> knobydobs: yup. and now, every time you get a kernel update, the GUI will utterly fail until you download and install that .run file again.
[17:13] <erkid> this means i can install also distros with 1686 archtecture ?!
[17:13] <ikonia> ubuntu_: do you have a question ?
[17:13] <ikonia> erkid: yes
[17:13] <knobydobs> sudo /home/username here/downloads/filename here.run
[17:13] <nishttal2> ActionParsnip, ok its asking a reboot.. i'll be right back
[17:13] <erkid> OMG really thanks
[17:14] <alazare619> if you have a pentium 2 or greater 32bit processor you support 686
[17:14] <erkid> i have pentium 4
[17:14] <alazare619> then you support 686
[17:14] <erkid> ok right
[17:14] <knobydobs> luc_ sudo /home/username here/downloads/filename here.run
[17:14] <alazare619> the diffrence between 486 and 686 is mx and se processing
[17:14] <mneptok> alazare619: actually, Pentium Pro or newer :)
[17:15] <alazare619> but older pentium pro's didnt have those abilities or k6 processors  didnt support mx or se so they are 486 32bit processors
[17:15] <erkid> one more question why when i install ubuntu 11.04 after i turn on my pc it stays 1 min in power saving mode and then it starts normally
[17:15] <knobydobs> mneptok the run file did not solve the problem - it crashed
[17:15] <alazare619> im corrected :P
[17:15] <erkid> i didnt had this issue with 10.10
[17:15] <knobydobs> mneptok I have screenshot
[17:16] <alazare619> wtf is up with this damn chrooted enviorment why cant i apt-get update...
[17:17] <luc_> knobydobs, command not found
[17:17] <erkid> ok bye all boys ...see ya
[17:17] <[THC]AcidRain> perl comes installed on ubuntu by default right? cause im getting an error in a script saying use command not found
[17:18] <mneptok> [THC]AcidRain: "which perl"
[17:18] <[THC]AcidRain> a perl that takes this: use warnings;
[17:18] <[THC]AcidRain> i guess my path location is wrong
[17:18] <mneptok> [THC]AcidRain: probably the perl script is calling a command that is not installed. not that perl itself is not installed.
[17:19] <knobydobs> luc_ i dont know then - ask someone else - im a semi-noob myself
[17:19] <RobinR> Hey guys! As I explained yesterday, too, I'm having trouble with GRUB. I mainly use Windows 7 but for some special issues, I prefer Ubuntu 10.10. The last months I've set Windows boot on automatic and if I needed Linux, I started it with the Ultimate Recovery CD. But I wanted to change that and installed GRUB2. Problem: Windows doesn't boot anymore. The Ultimate Recovery CD informed me that...
[17:19] <[THC]AcidRain> line 4: use: command not found. line 4: use warnings;
[17:19] <RobinR> ...the Windows system partition was set „hidden“ somehow. Allright, easy to change but it still does not boot (it reports error 0xc000000e - Info: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible." Does anybody know how I may fix this issue?
[17:19] <mneptok> [THC]AcidRain: "which perl"

[17:22] <savid> I can't seem to apt-get update.  How do I fix this issue?  http://pastie.org/2509525

[17:26] <unomi> You would think, somehow, that before starting to make fancy sidebars and going through the trouble of moving app menus around, they would have gone 'hey, you know what - would be really neat if you could run a command without using the mouse in that popup widget we gave a hotkey to

[17:27] <unomi> I probably should be ranting in Gnome or something
[17:27] <abbiya> will ocelot drop the unity in future?
[17:28] <ThinkT510> unomi: i see, my mistake
[17:28] <xangua> savid: compile
[17:28] <ThinkT510> abbiya: no, unity is the default interface
[17:28] <xangua> abbiya: no

[17:28] <alkafoo> mneptok: my PM question has nothing to do with Ubuntu, but: mind if I PM?
[17:28] <unomi> ThinkT510: I am a longtime fan of BlackBox / FluxBox - and I really should just invest in setting it up on this machine

[17:30] <unomi> ThinkT510: but I'll admit that I am a sucker for wifi widgets and soft-toned app themes
[17:31] <unomi> ThinkT510: what are you using with xfce ?
[17:31] <ThinkT510> unomi: i prefer a nice simple conky myself
[17:32] <unomi> ThinkT510: for sure, but can you make that tell you which APs are around and do the handshakes?
[17:32] <mneptok> alkafoo: go ahead. but my time is limited.
[17:32] <knobydobs> luc_ try without sudo and substitute "username here" for your real username and filename here for the real filename

[17:33] <unomi> ThinkT510: what does your discovery and authentication workflow look like?
[17:33] <ThinkT510> luc_: try this: cd /home/luc/Downloads/

[17:35] <ActionParsnip> nmittal: sup
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> nmittal: did alsamixer have all levels cranked and unmuted?
[17:36] <unomi> ThinkT510: No, I mean, lets say you take your laptop to a new place and you need to see which APs are around and authenticate to them - or just check signal strength to the current one
[17:36] <nmittal> ActionParsnip, yes.. i cranked up all the volume
[17:36] <visionofarun> Hi all, I did a dist upgrade to 11.10 beta (64 bit). I can't run Skype now. It says: skype: error while loading shared libraries: libXss.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[17:36] <ThinkT510> unomi: i just use networkmanager
[17:37] <iceroot> visionofarun: #ubuntu+1
[17:37] <knobydobs> i have tryed https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/FglrxInteferesWithRadeonDriver#Problem:__Need_to_fully_remove_-fglrx_and_reinstall_-ati_from_scratch but it is not making any difference is there something i should be doing differently
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> !mac
[17:37] <visionofarun> iceroot: thanks
[17:37] <ThinkT510> unomi: but i rarely ever use my laptop out of the home
[17:37] <nmittal> ActionParsnip, lemme show you a snapshot of alsamixer
[17:37] <luc_> ThinkT510, no command found
[17:38] <ThinkT510> luc_: for which one?
[17:38] <unomi> ThinkT510: ok, your laptop autoconnects to your home AP?
[17:38] <ThinkT510> unomi: yes
[17:38] <unomi> ThinkT510: how / where did you configure that?
[17:38] <luc_> ThinkT510, is the a way to burn file to cd and autorun it
[17:39] <luc_> ThinkT510, all
[17:39] <nmittal> ActionParsnip, http://imagebin.org/171784
[17:39] <ThinkT510> unomi: under network preferences in the network manager applet
[17:39] <ThinkT510> unomi: rightclick it and select edit connections
[17:40] <ThinkT510> luc_: so you can't cd to the directory?
[17:40] <luc_> ThinkT510, no
[17:40] <ThinkT510> luc_: what does it say?
[17:41] <baron_> Hi, i need help changing from kde to gnome on kubuntu 10.10

[17:41] <luc_> ThinkT510, says no such file or directory
[17:41] <mahii> my data card is not working
[17:42] <ThinkT510> luc_: what about cd /home/luc/
[17:42] <knobydobs> should sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg do anything
[17:42] <unomi> ThinkT510: ok, we are getting somewhere, what are you using to have panels in xfce and is that something that I could use on fluxbox you think?
[17:42] <mahii> my usb modem not working what should i do
[17:42] <nmittal> ActionParsnip, you still around?
[17:42] <luist> how can i enable pageup and pagedown to scroll over last used commands in ubuntu?
[17:42] <baron_> xangua:What are the drawbacks of this will the gnome environment be perfect
[17:43] <ubuntu-es> waht is the chat in spanish?
[17:43] <ThinkT510> unomi: why not go the whole hog and install xfce if you are going to use xfce panels
[17:43] <xangua> baron_: I don't know what you consider perfect
[17:43] <xangua> !es | ubuntu-es
[17:44] <urlin2u> mahii, what is the model of the usb modem?
[17:44] <baron_> xangua: will it be like a fresh installation of ubuntu
[17:44] <_cb> Playing around with ldap on Ubuntu Server 11. Want to start over but sudo apt-get remove slapd ldap-utils  does not see to erase everything. How can I start from scratch without removing openldap?
[17:44] <xangua> !lubuntu
[17:44] <xangua> unomi: i read also that you preffer blackbox, lxde uses blackbox and it is a full desktop
[17:45] <silverarrow> anyone using libre office?
[17:45] <baron_> kubuntu is so troublesome, the only way I finally got internet on it was because of androids tethering function
[17:45] <knobydobs> silverarrow yep
[17:45] <unomi> ThinkT510: can you remove all window dressing with a hotkey in XFCE?
[17:46] <luc_> ThinkT510, any other way to install it
[17:46] <ThinkT510> unomi: window dressing?
[17:46] <unomi> ThinkT510: menus, borders etc
[17:46] <silverarrow> I am looking for spell check for Norwegian in package mangager, and I cannot find it. knobydobs do you have more than for English?
[17:46] <knobydobs> silverarrow no
[17:46] <knobydobs> silverarrow sorry
[17:46] <ThinkT510> unomi: not sure, but you can use an alternative window manager (instead of xfwm4)
[17:46] <xangua> silverarrow: install all languages you want from Language settins
[17:47] <silverarrow> knobydobs,  there lots of languages listed, but not Norwegian for some reason,
[17:47] <silverarrow> xangua, thanks, from libre office settings?
[17:47] <unomi> xangua: thanks that does look quite nice
[17:48] <xangua> silverarrow: no, from your system settings
[17:48] <ThinkT510> xangua: i thought lxde uses openbox
[17:49] <silverarrow> xangua, would that be the same for lubuntu too?
[17:49] <unomi> ThinkT510: yes, looks like it does
[17:49] <dvz> hey could anyone help me :/
[17:49] <unomi> well, I'm not a hater - the boxes are Bros
[17:50] <silverarrow> xangua, I do have gnome language support, but I'm not shore what it is
[17:50] <xangua> ThinkT510: really¿ :P sorry
[17:50] <ThinkT510> xangua: no worries :)
[17:51] <urlin2u> silverarrow, on the libreoffice site there is none shown you might see if a openoffice one will work.
[17:51] <silverarrow> urlin2u, so there aren't any, I might go back to open office then
[17:51] <dvz> anyone solved the problem with no working headphones on ubuntu 11.04?
[17:51] <unomi> as long as I can remove window ornaments and -OMG HAVE AN APP MENU AT A RIGHT CLICK- I would be delighted
[17:52] <unomi> anyway - thanks for bearing with me for my rant
[17:52] <silverarrow> urlin2u, odd, because there are loads of language packs for libreoffice, perhaps they are adding more gradually
[17:52] <urlin2u> silverarrow, here is the OO link you might try this first. http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Dictionaries#Norwegian_.28Norway.29
[17:52] <Gunz4MiPPle> im reading that latest NVIDIA drivers on the nvidia website for my mx440 now support xorg 1.10, is this in the repos
[17:53] <rabbi1> how to reset audio in ubuntu ?
[17:53] <rabbi1> audio driver....
[17:53] <Dreamer3> ok, is there one specific option to turn on zsh's autocomplete?
[17:53] <silverarrow> rabbi1, terminal alsa mixer?
[17:54] <luc_> ThinkT510, how can i run a different vid card driver then
[17:54] <rabbi1> silverarrow: guess so, coz its used by my chat app, browser and rhythmbox, so got to reset
[17:54] <ThinkT510> luc_: have you tried installing the one it offers when you first boot?
[17:54] <Phase> I'm using Lubuntu 11.04 (lxde/openbox) with pulseaudio and pavucontrol, is there an easy way to lower the volume of just the Firefox application running? Firefox doesn't show up in the pavucontrol dialog.
[17:54] <silverarrow> urlin2u, thanks I am on to it :- )
[17:55] <ThinkT510> luc_: it should be under the menu as restriced drivers (or something similar)
[17:55] <rabbi1> silverarrow: yeah, alsa mixer
[17:55] <luc_> ThinkT510, it says it is installed  but no sound
[17:56] <ThinkT510> luc_: sound? i thought you were trying to install a graphics driver?
[17:56] <xangua> Phase: because firefox is not a player, you want to mute plugins like flash or mplayer
[17:56] <silverarrow> rabbi1, alsa mixer has worked for me, when audio was very bad, noisy, and when stuff was muted for no apparent reason
[17:56] <luc_> ThinkT510, no sound doesnt work
[17:57] <rabbi1> silverarrow: ok. what do i got to do now ?
[17:57] <Phase> xangua: Hmm, alright, ty
[17:57] <ThinkT510> luc_: then why for the past hour have you been trying to install the newest nvidia driver?
[17:57] <luc_> ThinkT510, how can i see what driver are installed
[17:58] <ThinkT510> luc_: i hope someone else can help you
[17:58] <luc_> ThinkT510, yes it wasnt the right driver i ad before
[17:58] <jeblad> How to reassign Nautilus as prefered ftp client, anyone with a pointer? It seems like it stopped working avfter one or several browser updates, whereafter Opera was assigned the role as ftp-client.
[17:58] <silverarrow> rabbi1, what is the issue? I don't know if there are any actual default setting option
[18:00] <luc_> ThinkT510, i had a generic driver installed before
[18:00] <rabbi1> silverarrow: i am using chat app, browser (movie), and rhythmbox, - sometimes works well. say i am watching a movie in browser, and in the mean time a user logsout from my chat client, a sound pops up, that time the browser stops the audio.
[18:01] <rabbi1> silverarrow: if my music player works and i start watching movie in browser, the audio doesn't come in browser, even though i stop my music player
[18:01] <rabbi1> :(
[18:01] <silverarrow> rabbi1, I see, a bit advance issue, but should be handled
[18:01] <jeblad>  Removing Opera only moved the problem, and now Firefox is set as FTP-client. It doesn't seems like any of the old tricks works, or rather I can't get it to work.
[18:02] <silverarrow> rabbi1, pidgin, xchat?
[18:02] <thunsucker> jeblad, what are you trying to do?
[18:02] <rabbi1> silverarrow: pidgin
[18:03] <jeblad> I want to use Nautilus as default FTP-client
[18:03] <jeblad> Somehow it stopped working
[18:03] <silverarrow> rabbi1, I haven't tried any addons, or plugins yet, I have pidgin too
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> jeblad: http://superuser.com/questions/72738/open-ftp-links-with-nautilus
[18:04] <jeblad> Whe n I define a new site it works, but when I click on any previously defined site using ftp-protocol it goes to a browser
[18:04] <rabbi1> nothing to do with addon, or plugin i guess. see for e.g. now i am watching a movie in browser, and if the movie stops or if i have to listen to music from rhythmbox, i am unable to, because the audio is taken over by browser. I got to close the browser and then music player works
[18:04] <silverarrow> rabbi1, maybe alsa mixer will have no effect on the issue, maybe the guys in the #pidgin channel might know about it
[18:04] <luc_> ThinkT510, the driver is activated but notcurrently in use
[18:05] <rabbi1> silverarrow: not pidgin problem, its on the priority. its with which app is accessing alsa
[18:05] <rabbi1> for that moment
[18:05] <pedrocr> How do I boot from a RAID1 root using the install media? The server install just failed to install grub and I need to boot my newly installed machine
[18:05] <rabbi1> now if i close browser then the music player works well
[18:06] <silverarrow> rabbi1, oh I see, I thought there might be some issue with addons, in pidgin there are loptions for showing all kinds of stuff in chat client
[18:06] <thunsucker> jeblad, sec i might have it
[18:06] <bullgard4> "You have searched for files named jitsi in suite natty, all sections, and all architectures. Sorry, your search gave no results." Is it true that Ubuntu does not provide the Jitsi VoiP client?
[18:06] <rabbi1> silverarrow: it's not with the chat client only. any apps for that matter
[18:06] <ActionParsnip> rabbi1: select to mute sounds in pidgin
[18:06] <jeblad> ActionParsnip: The entry should be named ftp?
[18:06] <dvz> hey can anyone help me up with the headphones problem? i'm using 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) and 01:00.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RV710/730
[18:07] <jeblad> Its missing...
[18:07] <silverarrow> rabbi1, let me start alsa mxier
[18:07] <rabbi1> ActionParsnip: that's the pidgin issue. it works fine now.
[18:07] <thunsucker> jeblad, http://radu.cotescu.com/how-to-set-nautilus-as-default-ftp-application/
[18:07] <rabbi1> silverarrow: i would like to know how the priority is given to apps by alsa ?
[18:08] <rabbi1> ActionParsnip: that's not the pidgin issue **
[18:08] <Cyrax5> Is it possible to connect a pc to a wifi connection via a bluetooth adapter?
[18:08] <jeblad> thunsucker: I tried that one, didn't work..
[18:09] <thunsucker> jeblad, did you make the ftp folder and then place a %gconf.xml inside of it then reboot?
[18:09] <MonkeyDust> Cyrax5: wifi is not on the same frequency as bluetooth
[18:09] <iceroot> Cyrax5: no
[18:09] <Cyrax5> Dang. Thanks.
[18:10] <jeblad> thunsucker: Yes
[18:10] <rabbi1> say: play something in rhythmbox, then open a browser - watch movie. it doesn't play sound -> then stop rhythmbox, still browser won't play audio, -> now refresh the browser and play some movie, the audio is back on the browser. Can't I have both play to gether, or can't i make audio to be heard with out closing the previous apps ?
[18:10] <silverarrow> rabbi1, that was a tricky one,
[18:11] <nmittal> ActionParsnip, still no sound :(
[18:11] <thunsucker> jeblad, go back to the url I posted, and look for EFZ's comment
[18:11] <jeblad> Running gconf-editor as myself I find it, running as root I don't. Probably the correct behaviour.
[18:11] <Gunz4MiPPle> what does 'fix released' on Launchpad mean, for a bug
[18:11] <thunsucker> jeblad, sudo vi /etc/gnome/defaults.list
[18:12] <thunsucker> jeblad, add: x-scheme-handler/ftp=nautilus-folder-handler.desktop , no need to reboot
[18:12] <jeblad> Anyhow, the places menu still opens the ftp-locations in browsers
[18:12] <ThinkT510> thunsucker: i'd avoid recomending vi unless they are advanced
[18:12] <rabbi1> say: play something in rhythmbox, then open a browser - watch movie. it doesn't play sound -> then stop rhythmbox, still browser won't play audio, -> now refresh the browser and play some movie, the audio is back on the browser. Can't I have both play to gether, or can't i make audio to be heard with out closing the previous apps ?
[18:13] <thunsucker> jeblad, also sudo gedit ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list
[18:13] <jeblad> Ok, I'll try that... I want to kill someone at Opera for fucking with my computer.. :(
[18:13] <thunsucker> jeblad, make sure this is updated: x-scheme-handler/ftp=nautilus;
[18:13] <xangua> !language | jeblad
[18:14] <ThinkT510> jeblad: gksudo gedit ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list
[18:14] <thunsucker> ThinkT510, good thinking, i think typing "sudo vi" is hard programmed into me now lol
[18:14] <BiKER-JENS> some head up in which vpn software to install on my ubuntu server?
[18:14] <ThinkT510> thunsucker: no worries, i'm not that advanced myself (nano suit me best)
[18:14] <thunsucker> BiKER-JENS, you want to lean towards security or it being easy
[18:14] <jeblad> I want to be ablo to very politly and carefully stomp someone by elephants aat Opera
[18:14] <rabbi1> silverarrow: did you try that? r u ?
[18:14] <jeblad> Now, editing..
[18:15] <thunsucker> ThinkT510, vi makes me angry at times but it's an old friend now don't think I'll ever be able to change
[18:15] <BiKER-JENS> thunsucker,  have been buidling vpn on m$ platform for years, know the dirrent protocolss
[18:15] <BiKER-JENS> "just" need a good ubuntu ready vpn deamon
[18:16] <BiKER-JENS> and if it's easy to setup I would be nice also
[18:16] <rabbi1> guys, got an issue---------- say: play something in rhythmbox, then open a browser - watch movie. it doesn't play sound -> then stop rhythmbox, still browser won't play audio, -> now refresh the browser and play some movie, the audio is back on the browser. Can't I have both play to gether, or can't i make audio to be heard with out closing the previous apps ?
[18:16] <thunsucker> BiKER-JENS, okay so that answered my question, you need easy
[18:16] <BiKER-JENS> yeah :-)
[18:16] <thunsucker> BiKER-JENS, pptpd
[18:16] <bullgard4> "You have searched for files named jitsi in suite natty, all sections, and all architectures. Sorry, your search gave no results." Is it true that Ubuntu does not provide the Jitsi VoiP client?
[18:16] <ikonia> bullgard4: have you installed it ?
[18:17] <BiKER-JENS> okay thanks... thunsucker  I will try it :-)
[18:17] <ikonia> bullgard4: have you looked in the repos ?
[18:17] <BiKER-JENS> thought I was to use Hamachi or openvpn
[18:17] <thunsucker> BiKER-JENS, awesome :p and if you want something more advanced, openvpn :)
[18:17] <ThinkT510> !find jitsi | bullgard4
[18:17] <ThinkT510> bullgard4: seems so
[18:18] <rabbi1> is there a channel for alsa ? and rhythmbox ?
[18:18] <bullgard4> ThinkT510: Thank you very much for your help.
[18:18] <ThinkT510> bullgard4: no worries :)
[18:18] <BiKER-JENS> thunsucker think I will try openVPN then, have make sure it will run macX and windows
[18:19] <silverarrow> rabbi1, sorry, I seem to be not good with this. Have you asked any of the guys in #alsa channel? there might be someone clever with audio issues ?
[18:19] <BiKER-JENS> and they have a client for both platforms without I have to wirte 20 diffrents guides :D
[18:19] <BiKER-JENS> thanks
[18:19] <ThinkT510> bullgard4: http://jitsi.org/index.php/Main/DebianRepository
[18:19] <thunsucker> BiKER-JENS, good thinking :P
[18:19] <rabbi1> silverarrow: sure, will get there, and channel for rhythmbox ?
[18:20] <ThinkT510> bullgard4: that is from the ubuntu link in the downloads page on their site
[18:20] <jeblad> thunsucker: Ha! It worked! You will get cookies from me if you ever visits my websites, and that is for free!
[18:20] <whatever01> I have a question installing xubuntu 11.04 (graphical installation) using one SSD as / (root) and two HDDs for /home...any chance I can make a RAID 1 at the beginning during partioning?
[18:20] <BiKER-JENS> thunsucker, setting up linux based servers Is quitly more dif. as windows :D
[18:21] <BiKER-JENS> I'm MCITP windows server whore :D
[18:21] <BiKER-JENS> hehe
[18:21] <ikonia> whatever01: as in software raid ?
[18:21] <bullgard4> ThinkT510: Excellent! Thank you again for your help.
[18:21] <BiKER-JENS> sorry guys
[18:21] <thunsucker> jeblad, awesome!
[18:21] <whatever01> ikonia: yes
[18:21] <ThinkT510> bullgard4: np, hope it works for you
[18:21] <ikonia> whatever01: you'd need to use the alternative installer I believe
[18:21] <thunsucker> BiKER-JENS, they both have their ups and downs
[18:21] <whatever01> ikonia: I was afraid you would say that :)
[18:22] <thunsucker> BiKER-JENS, i work on windows servers all day long but run ubuntu on my home machine and work laptops and etc.
[18:22] <bullgard4> ThinkT510: It did in the past, but under an older Ubuntu version.
[18:22] <jeblad> thunsucker: I think it was due to a popupdialog in Opera and then I was stuck. There will probably be more people with the same problem.
[18:22] <thunsucker> BiKER-JENS, today my win7 laptop install died after visiting a public site lol
[18:22] <whatever01> ikonia: will try with the alternate one then, thanks
[18:22] <BiKER-JENS> haha
[18:23] <BiKER-JENS> I'm thinking about changing out all my gear tli Apple
[18:23] <BiKER-JENS> to*
[18:23] <thunsucker> BiKER-JENS, do you like to centrally manage your gear or have each be their own entity?
[18:23] <BiKER-JENS> central -)
[18:24] <thunsucker> BiKER-JENS, if you work on windows stuff, good luck changing subnets with a mac on a daily basis (moving from one vlan to another)
[18:24] <thunsucker> BiKER-JENS, your mac will not play nicely with release/renew
[18:24] <BiKER-JENS> hehe
[18:24] <thunsucker> BiKER-JENS, then once it renew's it's ip, it won't be able to route lol
[18:25] <BiKER-JENS> hehe nice
[18:25] <BiKER-JENS> less work ;)
[18:25] <thunsucker> lol
[18:25] <BiKER-JENS> dont like work
[18:25] <silverarrow> rabbi1,  I found a rhythmbox irc cannel on server: irc.gnome.org
[18:25] <BiKER-JENS> more fun less work :D
[18:25] <rabbi1> silverarrow: i am checking out :) thank you for the info
[18:26] <rabbi1> silverarrow: how can i find channels on different server ?
[18:26] <jeblad> Another annoying thing; If you have two Nautiluswindows open and window B has a modal dialog (typically asking for a password) and you try to scroll window A, then the scroll-handle will disapear when you point on it.
[18:28] <silverarrow> rabbi1, in pidgin you go to "manage accounts" then "add" then  "irc" then fill in irc.gnome.org.
[18:29] <filePeter> What’s the overall diskusage for a normal ubuntu desktop system? (every thing in /)
[18:29] <filePeter> but /home seperately…
[18:30] <whatever01> filePeter: I would count in about 10 GByte at least
[18:30] <rabbi1> silverarrow: sorry, i am aware of that, but how will i know Channel A is in Server B, coz i might only search in Server A which i already have... is there any way so that i can search for a particular channel in many server at once ? or should i add all the server to my client and then check ?
[18:30] <edorissen> #vim
[18:30] <whatever01> filePeter: if you are lucky its a bit less, but more likely more
[18:30] <ThinkT510> filePeter: 4-6gb, i usually give a 10gb partition
[18:31] <silverarrow> rabbi1, hmm, good question, I am in xchat lol, wait I shall login in pidgin
[18:31] <whatever01> ThinkT510: I thought that was about two or three versions ago...I got the feeling it started to bloat up a little
[18:32] <ThinkT510> whatever01: i tend to use xubuntu, so it might be smaller than ubuntu
[18:32] <filePeter> whatever01, ThinkT510: Great, that’ll be just fine to fit next to this 35GiG (!!!!) Win7 install on a thinkpad for my client…
[18:33] <whatever01> ThinkT510: yes, xubuntu uses less, so you are surely right...but he asked ubuntu (gnome) so that is why I was surprised by your number
[18:33] <ThinkT510> filePeter: thinkpads are indeed a good choice (but hey, i'm biased)
[18:33] <BluesKaj> bbl...need to takre a nap
[18:33] <whatever01> ThinkT510 and filePeter: I second that :)...just ordered my x220 ;)
[18:34] <filePeter> ThinkT510: Haha, yeah… But gosh, 35GiG is just HUGE on this ssd of 80GiG…
[18:34] <filePeter> ThinkT510: Can I delete this recovery partition without any problems? It annoys me…
[18:35] <mneptok> filePeter: you can reduce that 35GB by disabling restore points and deleting them
[18:35] <ThinkT510> filePeter: if you know you are never going to use it, then yeah
[18:35] <rabbi1> silverarrow1: i see you left all the rooms :)
[18:36] <ThinkT510> filePeter: if you have a windows install disk then it's fine
[18:36] <Richiie_> Hello im having trouble whit a bash script
[18:36] <Richiie_> hello
[18:36] <filePeter> ThinkT510: Don’t have that… But Windows is not going to be used either… (hoping…)
[18:36] <whatever01> filePeter: isnt there a way to backup that recovery partition?
[18:36] <filePeter> mneptok: Wow, great. Thanks!
[18:36] <Richiie> hello im having trouble whit a bash script i wanna code,
[18:37] <silverarrow1> rabbi1: you figured it out? if you choose "buddies" then "join chat" then you should be able to choose server from a shroll type listing, and then either fill in "channel" or "list channels"
[18:37] <filePeter> Richiie: #bash
[18:37] <filePeter> whatever01: Certainly… But win is not going to be used, so no worries…
[18:37] <whatever01> filePeter: in this case...indeed, no worries
[18:37] <silverarrow1> rabbi1:  yes pidgin now :- )
[18:38] <Richiie> im doing a mysqldump bash script, and all i wanna do is cat file.sql | tr "," "\n" > file.txt
[18:38] <Richiie> how can i do that ? in a bash script i dont know how to implement it
[18:38] <whatever01> filePeter: I am just thinking in terms of support...sometimes supports wants to have the original OS on itt
[18:38] <Richiie> i know i can use sed also but how do i implement this ?
[18:38] <filePeter> whatever01: What if I just kill the restore points, like mneptok suggested?
[18:39] <ThinkT510> Richiie: you may get a better answer in #bash
[18:39] <rabbi1> silverarrow1: i guess i am unable to put it across properly, :) i know how to add a server and add a channel for that server after searching, but how will i know that channel A is available in server A and not in B..
[18:39] <pedrocr> It seems the natty install is defaulting to creating GPT instead of MBR partition tables and grub doesn't like it. Is there a way to force the server install to create an MBR partition table?
[18:39] <whatever01> filePeter: well, I do not know...it might be an alternative...
[18:41] <filePeter> whatever01: Anyhow… Thank you…  I'm not shore really, for example all the channels in the ubuntu server seems to be redirected to freenode when loggin on.  However for gerneral irc server/channels lists I use google, seems to be the quickest
[18:42] <Richiie> ThinkT510: Okay thanks.
[18:42] <whatever01> filePeter: good luck :)
[18:42] <rww> silverarrow1: irc.ubuntu.com is just a pointer to chat.freenode.net. There is no separate Ubuntu IRC server.
[18:42] <rabbi1> silverarrow1: that's the only option left for quick search, and you are lucky if you get it... ;)
[18:42] <filePeter> whatever01: Hehe, thx… ;-p
[18:43] <silverarrow1> rww:  I see, that would explain it
[18:44] <executionist> idk how I am online when ubuntu does not recognize my lan card, can I make it recognize the lan card?
[18:45] <silverarrow1> rabbi1: yes a bit of luck seems to be needed. The sites that list channels, are often way to cumbersome to maneuver
[18:46] <rabbi1> google can come with channel and server list options. this will help developers a lot
[18:46] <Pici> !ot
[18:48] <ScatterBrain> Ok, so I basically need to disable avahi-daemon because it's playing havoc with my company's intranet.  Whats it gonna hurt if I simply 'aptitude remove avahi-daemon'?
[18:49] <executionist> how can I make ubuntu recognize my network adaptor
[18:50] <anadon> Hey, how do I use dd to move a .iso to a usb drive?
[18:51] <rDx3> when a script is run by inid.d at startup does the process executes as a root user?
[18:52] <silverarrow1> executionist: have you tried  in terminal:  nm-list   ?
[18:52] <glebihan> ScatterBrain, a lot of packages depend on avahi-daemon, so this is likely to break your system
[18:52] <ThinkT510> !upstart | rDx3
[18:52] <executionist> silverarrow1,  command not found
[18:52] <sandking> hey
[18:53] <sandking> anyone can recommend some g+ app for ubuntu?
[18:53] <silverarrow1> executionist:   not found? it should list something
[18:53] <executionist> it says 'command not found'
[18:54] <ScatterBrain> glebihan: But I don't understand it's purpose, other than making FQDN like 'server.foo.local' not respond.
[18:54] <silverarrow1> executionist: sorry, command : nm-tool
[18:54] <silverarrow1> executionist: my error
[18:54] <ScatterBrain> glebihan: there's a lot of things in our network that rely on the '.local' suffix.
[18:54] <Pici> sandking: there are none.  There is no g+ api yet.
[18:54] <anadon> Hey, how do I use dd to move a .iso to a usb drive?
[18:55] <executionist> i see the device there, eth0
[18:55] <glebihan> ScatterBrain, honestly, I don't know much about avahi-daemon and what it does, but looking at packages depending on it, I would really not recommend trying to remove it
[18:55] <sandking> Pici, thx for answer
[18:55] <executionist> silverarrow1, I see a device there eth0, idk why wireshark tells me there are no network interface's
[18:56] <ScatterBrain> glebihan: I stopped when I saw the dependancies too.  :)
[18:56] <silverarrow1> executionist:  there is a trouble shooting guide on this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide     I'm not that good with terminal really
[18:56] <rDx3> ubottu: ok so I have to rewrite it or the scripts that are in the init.d dir still work?
[18:56] <rDx3> :)
[18:56] <rDx3> ok sorry
[18:57] <executionist> silverarrow1, will see if I find something useful there
[18:57] <glebihan> rDx3, scripts in /etc/init.d are still handled by upstart
[18:57] <silverarrow1> executionist:  I can try, do you get any info on your card ? Ubuntu is usually very good with detecting wireless cards
[18:58] <rDx3> gelbihan: ok thanks
[18:58] <executionist> silverarrow1, its not a wireless card, its wired. Broadcom netextreme 57xx
[18:58] <urlin2u> !broadcom
[18:58] <glebihan> rDx3, and to answer your initial question, init scripts are run as root (though some of them may launch daemons running as other useres)
[18:58] <rDx3> gelbihan: is there a way to find why a script thet works in terminal mode with the start command doesn't work at boot tinme?
[18:59] <rDx3> gelbihan: my script is just running thin
[18:59] <ScatterBrain> So can anyone else tell my how I can safely disable avahi-daemon?
[18:59] <glebihan> rDx3, so your script is in /etc/init.d
[18:59] <glebihan> ?
[19:00] <rDx3> glebihan: yes
[19:00] <silverarrow1> executionist: what does this give?   ifconfig -a | grep eth
[19:00] <glebihan> rDx3, did you create the necessary links in /etc/rc*.d ?
[19:00] <^Mike\b> I have a removable disk that gets mounted automatically at /media/$label when I attach it. I want it to be mounted elsewhere instead, and I want any user to be able to (un)mount it. What do I need to put in /etc/fstab to make that happen?
[19:00] <rDx3> gelbihan: you mean /usr/sbin/update-rc.d -f thin defaults?
[19:00] <silverarrow1> very clever urlin2u ;- )
[19:01] <executionist> silverarrow1,  eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:11:43:ac:ed:2a
[19:01] <rDx3> the thin install should create the sl
[19:01] <silverarrow1> executionist: hmm, not completely identified
[19:01] <photon> hi. is there a way to just download the .deb files (instead of installing the package) with apt-get? I want to transfer a couple of programs via DVD to a computer that does not have an internet connection.
[19:02] <rDx3> gelbihan: followed this http://articles.slicehost.com/2008/5/6/ubuntu-hardy-thin-web-server-for-ruby
[19:02] <executionist> silverarrow1, yeah, thats the problem :/
[19:02] <Phoenix87> re
[19:02] <coraxx> photon: yes you can
[19:02] <glebihan> rDx3, yes though you shouldn't have to use the -f option (it's only needed to remove the links)
[19:03] <^Mike\b> Phoenix87: Yes, use the -d option (--download-only)
[19:03] <^Mike\b> photon, rather, sorry
[19:03] <rDx3> gelbihan: really? let me try… it would great to solve this !
[19:03] <silverarrow1> executionist: try lspci -vvnn | grep 14e4
[19:03] <glebihan> rDx3, did you check that the symlinks were created ?
[19:03] <ThinkT510> !aptoncd | photon
[19:03] <coraxx> photon: just make sure the arch (architecture of the package match your system ...i386 for 32-bit ...and amd64 for 64-bit) ...and remember to look up dependencies...you might need to transfer additional packages with your DVD
[19:03] <rDx3> gelbihan: how can I check?
[19:03] <executionist> silverarrow1,  02:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5751 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express [14e4:1677] (rev 01)
[19:04] <photon> coraxx, ThinkT510, ^Mike\b thanks
[19:04] <glebihan> rDx3, browse to /etc/rc2.d for example and check if there's a S20thin file in there
[19:05] <^Mike\b> I have a removable disk that gets mounted automatically at /media/$label when I attach it. I want it to be mounted elsewhere instead, and I want any user to be able to (un)mount it. I thought the mount options noauto,user would be sufficient in fstab, but apparently not. How can I accomplish this?
[19:06] <silverarrow1> executionist: a bit better
[19:06] <rDx3> gelbihan: in etc rc I have many rc1.d to rc6.d
[19:07] <rDx3> gelbihan: will open all of them...
[19:07] <silverarrow1> I found a list of driver supported here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[19:08] <rDx3> gelbihan: all empty
[19:08] <rDx3> gelbihan: will try without the -f command
[19:08] <muffette> hi there
[19:09] <wildc4rd> evenin all
[19:09] <ScatterBrain> So can anyone else tell my how I can safely disable avahi-daemon?
[19:09] <glebihan> rDx3, yep try without that option then check again in the links are there
[19:09] <rDx3> gelbihan: tried and it says …  System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/thin already exist.
[19:09] <Globos_> hello
[19:09] <rDx3> gelbihan: will try to reboot to see anyway
[19:09] <glebihan> rDx3, ok let me know how it goes
[19:10] <Globos_> bye
[19:10] <mbeierl> Very interesting.  twice now, my home gateway ubuntu box has had an IRC bot installed on it.  does anyone know if there are any  vulnerabilities in Natty?
[19:10] <rDx3> gelbihan: I must say while I wait…thank you for the time you are spending with me
[19:10] <rDx3> gelbihan: I was going not to sleep this night on this
[19:10] <mbeierl> the first time, someone actually managed to install an ssh key in .ssh to allow passwordless access.
[19:11] <yeats> mbeierl: sounds like you need to lock down SSH
[19:12] <yeats> mbeierl: check /var/log/auth.log to see if anyone is ssh-ing in
[19:12] <mbeierl> yeats: but the question is... how are they getting in there.  Nope.  I can't see anything there.  This script put a cron entry in: */5 * * * * /var/tmp/.tmp/.Driver/driver.cron > /dev/null 2>&1
[19:13] <rDx3> gelbihan: nope … tried  netstat -antp to see if thin was listening...
[19:13] <yeats> mbeierl: I would check open ports and make sure your firewall is blocking what you need it to
[19:14] <PerfieM> OMG SOO COOOL
[19:14] <yeats> !info rkhunter | mbeierl
[19:14] <muffette> can someone help me with the grub going insane since 11.04 update plz? Tried something on the forum but didin't work
[19:15] <Jordan_U> !details | muffette
[19:15] <mbeierl> yeats: thanks.  The thing is, I've already done this once.  I don't get how they got back in...
[19:15] <muffette> I exactly have this one: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1729949
[19:15] <yeats> mbeierl: I would scour the logs for more info
[19:16] <PerfieM> rww: DONT WORRY, YOU WONT REGRET THIS. I SWEAR IT
[19:16] <muffette> but I tried what they did on the linked topic
[19:16] <rDx3> gelbihan: should I try something else?
[19:16] <muffette> and does not work:
[19:16]  * rww tunes PerfieM's caps lock key
[19:17] <muffette> when I write the command lines it says me the hard drive is already mount or busy
[19:17] <IdleOne> PerfieM: consider this a friendly warning, you only get one :)
[19:17] <McQueen> hi, i have got a problem... i couldnt remove mysql server on ubuntu. it s getting an error while trying to remove... it says: stopping mysql server and then its trying to start mysql server... then starting mysql server failed.  how can i remove it?
[19:17] <cordor> is there anyway to have grayscale X
[19:18] <PerfieM> IdleOne: I wouldnt consider anything you do "friendly", but whatever you say captain!
[19:18] <NFF_Hallway> server irc.firstfloor.org
[19:18] <rDx3> gelbihan: I was thinking … is there a way I can set an arbitrary variable in the script to see after boot if it exist… like echo it after terminal...
[19:18] <Jordan_U> muffette: That error means that the drive that your BIOS is booting from is not the drive that grub-install was most recently run against.
[19:18] <McQueen> any idea?
[19:19] <Jordan_U> !bootinfo | muffette
[19:19] <tave_> is there a program other than the beta skype I can use to connect to the skype network?
[19:20] <muffette> ok
[19:20] <ThinkT510> tave_: no, only skype connects to skype
[19:20] <glebihan> rDx3, I would create a log file, or just use touch to create a file and see if it exists after boot
[19:21] <rDx3> ok … I'll try it
[19:21] <muffette> why is there always a bug with grub when updating ubuntu ffs :(
[19:21] <tave_> sucks, their software suck on linux
[19:21] <glebihan> rDx3, sorry I took some time to answer but you're mispelling my nick so I didn't see your messages
[19:21] <coraxx> tave_: pidgin has a skype-plugin ... but is for messages only
[19:22] <xangua> coraxx: tave_ and it needs skype running...
[19:22] <PerfieM> How can I discuss bans if I'm BANNED from #ubuntu-ops?
[19:22] <rww> PerfieM: #ubuntu-irc-council
[19:22] <rDx3> glebihan:sorry…I write them every time…too many things for me
[19:23] <Jordan_U> muffette: Most likely because the grub-pc packages is not currently configured to install grub to the mbr of the drive your BIOS is booting from.
[19:23] <glebihan> rDx3, no problem
[19:23] <rww> PerfieM: or PM the op who banned you, I guess
[19:23] <kudu|sick> ktorrent = best?
[19:23] <Pici> !best | kudu|sick
[19:24] <Jordan_U> muffette: The output from boot info script, and from "debconf-show grub-pc", would be very helpful.
[19:24] <urlin2u> muffette, if your experiencing a bug at every grub update post the bootscript yo may have a setup that is improper, the script will give us a what is where.
[19:24] <urlin2u> you
[19:24] <muffette2> yes I'm working on it but internet very slow atm
[19:24] <mbeierl> yeats: this is not necessarily a rootkit, though.  It's just a script run as a user process that "hides" itself in a directory called "...".  Would rkhunter search for user-level bots/scripts?
[19:24] <PerfieM> rww: but no one speaks in there :(
[19:24] <tave_> how about wine, does that still exist in linux, and does it work with the windows binary?

[19:26] <scoobaru> I'm having a problem with vim in Ubuntu 10.04. I uninstalled vim-tiny and then installed vim using apt-get. Now when I run vim it tries to load /usr/local/bin/vim which doesn't exist, instead of using the correct /usr/bin/vim.
[19:26] <scoobaru> How can I make the vim command point to /usr/bin/vim?
[19:26] <urlin2u> steve_, your missing the repo key it is 3rd party, that is whay.
[19:26] <urlin2u> why
[19:26] <steve_> urlin2u: Where do I get the repo key?
[19:27] <thunsucker> scoobaru, create a symbolic link for it
[19:27] <urlin2u> steve_, run the update in a terminal and pastebin the whole thing .
[19:27] <redboat> the error occurs when i issue the make command
[19:27] <steve_> urlin2u: Can you tell me in advance the pastebin location?
[19:28] <scoobaru> thunsucker, how do I do that?
[19:28] <ThinkT510> !paste | steve_
[19:28] <thunsucker> scoobaru, try: sudo ln -s /usr/bin/vim /usr/local/bin/vim
[19:28] <urlin2u> steve_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[19:28] <mbeierl> yeats: did.  it found nothing :(
[19:29] <thunsucker> scoobaru, if that didn't work, reverse the 2 locations
[19:30] <muffette2> I copy paste all the result.txt?
[19:30] <Jordan_U> muffette: NO.
[19:30] <yeats> mbeierl: ok, so I would just do my best to figure out *when* the files/scripts were created and try to correlate the create/edit times with logs
[19:30] <Jordan_U> !pastebin | muffette
[19:30] <scoobaru> Thanks thunsucker, that worked
[19:30] <thunsucker> scoobaru, awesome!
[19:30] <mikigirl> Hello how do you uninstall a program on Ubunto.
[19:31] <thunsucker> scoobaru, there is a proper way to fix it, i think somewehre you can set the default path for a command
[19:31] <yeats> mbeierl: do an nmap against your server to see which ports are open and adjust your firewall accordingly
[19:31] <thunsucker> mikigirl, Synaptic Package Manager
[19:31] <yeats> mbeierl: you could also disable password login with SSH and just use ssh keys (since you said that was a vulnerablity before)
[19:31] <mbeierl> yeats: already done.  nothing that should not be there
[19:32] <scoobaru> thunsucker, It's okay this is just an ubuntu vm I'm playing with. It was weird though because /usr/local/bin/vim did actually exist but when I tried to run it it said it didn't exist. I had to delete it and then create the symlink
[19:32] <muffette2> Jordan_U: pastebin ?
[19:32] <yeats> mbeierl: that's about all the advice *I* have - maybe someone else in the channel has some ideas
[19:32] <Tiktalik> How do I find a list of running programs?
[19:32] <thunsucker> scoobaru, might have been another bad symlink
[19:32] <scoobaru> Pretty stupid that Ubuntu doesn't include the full vim
