[00:00] <mistahjc> hamchan how do you install cairo doc
[00:00] <FCalderon> mistahjc, he's talking about cairo-dock, not cairo doc, which is a toolbar for ubuntu
[00:01] <mistahjc> thats what i want that was a typeo on my part
[00:01] <mistahjc> i meant dock
[00:01] <FCalderon> mistahjc, so you want to install ubuntu or cairo-dock?
[00:01] <mistahjc> i have ubuntu 9.10
[00:01] <mistahjc> and want to install cairo dock
[00:01] <FCalderon> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CairoDock
[00:02] <FCalderon> There are the instructions to install cairo dock
[00:02] <SeekerNL> how do I get the source of a app by apt-get ?
[00:03] <Hamchan> You can find a .deb of the newest version if you google cairo dock, or you can get it through apt-get which is easier
[00:03] <LjL> SeekerNL: "apt-get source packagename"
[00:03] <FCalderon> SeekerNL, use apt-get source packagename
[00:03] <SeekerNL> hmmm almost could have guesed that
[00:04] <danobook> or used man :)
[00:04] <FCalderon> SeekerNL, but you didn't :)
[00:04] <bae> please help! I upgrade to 9.1 and my partitions will not automount :(
[00:05] <tyler> Soft reset error!. Proceeds with RAID1 drive 1 not loading...
[00:05] <FCalderon> bae, which kind of partitions?
[00:05] <bae> FCalderon, the root ext3 and possibly the swap
[00:05] <Tyler5> -.- Need help, I think part of the reason is my motherboard but I need to figure this out. Soft Reset problem and RAID1 failure
[00:05] <Tyler5> can anyone help?
[00:06] <FCalderon> bae then how does it boot?
[00:06] <bae> FCalderon, I can mount manually, but not something i want to do every time :\
[00:06] <Tyler5> (raid 1 drive 1 fail)
[00:06] <Lucho_33> hi, can some one giveme a little help with starting and installing ubuntu?
[00:06] <bae> FCalderon, in recovery mode I do it manually
[00:06] <bae> and the weird thing is, I don't change any options.  I just call the mount point
[00:07] <bae> mount -o remount,rw /
[00:07] <Tyler5> People can see my chat right?. Not trying to be rude, just want to make sure I dont have to register.
[00:07] <i_is_broke> Tyler5, ya
[00:08] <FCalderon> Tyler5, yes, we read what you type
[00:08] <i_is_broke> just be patient when someone knows they will help
[00:08] <FCalderon> bae, use pastebin and copy your /etc/fstab there
[00:08] <Tyler5> Thanks
[00:08] <Tyler5> I'm hoping I wont have to recompile my kernel.. going to be a real pain if I do.

[00:11] <FCalderon> kristian1, if you're using ntfs, yes
[00:11] <scx> which ftp server is better: proftpd or wu-ftpd (if i want use per-user directories (/home/*/public_html))?
[00:11] <FCalderon> kristian1, but to the best of my knowledge, it's enabled by default
[00:12] <Tyler5> Still looking for someone that can help me solve my Soft Reset errors and RAID mirror issue, though I think if the softreset is fixed the raid will work again.. meh

[00:12] <userone> i am about to install totem-xine. it says this is a tranistional package. what does this mean?
[00:12] <FCalderon> bae as per your pastebin, the root is mounter, what isn't is the swap
[00:12] <epinky> scx: public_html is Apache then ProFTPd
[00:13] <FCalderon> bae you need to remove the # in the 8th line
[00:13] <bae> ok
[00:13] <scx> epinky: thx
[00:13] <bae> FCalderon, ok.  think thatll do it?
[00:13] <FCalderon> bae, yes
[00:13] <bae> FCalderon, ill give it a whirl.  ill be back
[00:14] <FCalderon> bae, unless your root partition's id changed, but that's something that rarely happens

[00:16] <kayla>  folhey folks
[00:16] <kayla> Ca someone help me get my Atheros wifi card working?
[00:17] <amy_>  hi
[00:18] <amy_> hello
[00:18] <amy_> can anyone tell me if ubuntu has got flash?
[00:18] <boscop> why doesn't "amixer set Master on" unmute the volume?
[00:18] <bae> FCalderon, no luck :\
[00:18] <boscop> it says it's on but it's not
[00:18] <falseflag911> amy_: yes, install it via add/remove progs
[00:18] <amy_> can i command it like using apt-get
[00:19] <genii> amy_: Not by default. But you can install it and some other stuff like Java and codecs in the package ubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:19] <kayla> My atheros wifi card doesnt work... can someone help me figure it out and get it working?
[00:19] <amy_> so what type of command is it
[00:19] <falseflag911> kayla: i have ath wifi, but i'm useless at helping. what version of ubuntu do you have?
[00:19] <kayla> Xubuntu 9.10
[00:20] <genii> amy_: You can use apt-get to install. (my last comment was a response to earlier question)
[00:20] <epinky> amy_: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[00:20] <kostkon> boscop, try amixer set Master unmute, also amixer set PCM unmute
[00:20] <amy_> ok thanks
[00:20] <userone> i just installed totem-xine, and now my totem player doesnt work. synaptic says totem-xine is a 'transitional package'. what does this mean?
[00:20] <echosystm> whats the difference between ubuntu alternate cli and server?
[00:20] <falseflag911> kayla: ok. i had my ath wifi working on jaunty, but not on hardy or karmic. you may want to somehow yank the modules and drivers from jaunty and install them in your current installation.
[00:21] <genii> amy_: Make sure "restricted" repository is also enabled
[00:21] <kostkon> userone, 9.10?
[00:21] <echosystm> is the server kernel innapropriate for desktop use?
[00:21] <falseflag911> kayla: but in saying that, i don't know if it works. i've done forum searches and seen nothing but bad news.
[00:21] <userone> kostkon: yes, 9.10 64
[00:21] <amy_> genii: how to enable it
[00:22] <genii> !repos | amy_
[00:22] <genii> amy_: If you're working in command-line edit the /etc/apt/sources list and uncomment the appropriate ones
[00:23] <kostkon> userone, eh, totem-xine has been deprecated so this is a transitional pacakge for peoiple upgrading from 9.04
[00:23] <kostkon> userone, thus, totem-xine actually installs totem-gstreamers
[00:24] <userone> kostkon: i see. i just 'completely removed' totem-xine, and now totem works again just fine. i dont know what just happened, but its fixed
[00:25] <kostkon> userone, :)
[00:25] <boscop> kostkon: I tried it but "amixer set Master unmute" seems to behave like "on" and the other results in: amixer: Invalid command!
[00:25] <kostkon> boscop, try installing alsa-utils then
[00:26] <boscop> kostkon: I have alsamixer, alsactl and alsa
[00:26] <boscop> is that enough=
[00:26] <boscop> ?
[00:26] <kostkon> boscop, then use alsamixer
[00:26] <Colonel_Panik> How does Ubuntu 9.10 install work? Does today's install differ from last weeks's or do you have the same older stuff installed and then update to todays 9.10?
[00:26] <kostkon> boscop, insteead of calling amixer. or if oyu want install gnome-alsamixer for a gui
[00:26] <userone> kostkon: i am trying to play a vob from my hdd. i have installed totem, mplayer, xine, vlc and even avidemux and still nothing plays it. any ideas?
[00:27] <cdm10> Colonel_Panik: if you install from the CD, you'll get 9.10 as it was at the time of the original release.
[00:27] <boscop> kostkon: No, I want a command that I can run on startup, no GUI, because on startup the volume is 0
[00:27] <cdm10> Colonel_Panik: Then, you can install whatever updates may have come up.
[00:27] <kostkon> userone, no :(
[00:27] <cdm10> Colonel_Panik: however, if you update online from 9.04 to 9.10, you will get the latest versions of everything.
[00:27] <Glowball> Hi
[00:27] <kostkon> boscop, then install the package alsa-utils to get amixer
[00:27] <kayla> falseflag911, I dont kow how to do that
[00:27] <boscop> kostkon: I have amixer
[00:27] <jsubl2> can empathy do photo sharing with a windows client
[00:27] <kostkon> boscop, sure?
[00:28] <boscop> kostkon: the commands I used were amixer commands
[00:28] <Glowball> I'm going to upgrade (finally) to 9.10, but I don't want to spend days to get back all the packages I need
[00:28] <boscop> kostkon: scroll back if you don't believe me
[00:28] <Glowball> Somebody once told me there was a way to save that list, so my question is: how?
[00:28] <kostkon> boscop, ok
[00:28] <Colonel_Panik> cdm10, the cd or the iso on ubuntu.com or are they the same? Does Ubuntu update the current iso.?
[00:28] <userone> kostkon: thanks anyway
[00:28] <kostkon> userone, np
[00:29] <cdm10> cd means iso. No, the ISO is not updated.
[00:29] <bastid_raZor> !clone | Glowball
[00:29] <boscop> kostkon: once I unmute it via a gui (the button in the panel) muting and unmuting via amixer works
[00:29] <Colonel_Panik> cdm10, thanks muchly!
[00:29] <bastid_raZor> Glowball: tell me if that works. i'm gettign errors on it.
[00:29] <cdm10> Colonel_Panik: no problem.
[00:29] <kostkon> boscop, hmm
[00:29] <boscop> kostkon: but as soon as I use the gui to mute it, or at startup, it doesn't work
[00:30] <harej> I am looking for a 1920x1080 rendition of the default desktop background from Karmic Koala. Google Images is not being useful. Where else may I find it?
[00:30] <falseflag911> kayla: it confuses me too. you can DL stuff from packages.ubuntu.com, but that's annoying when there are dependencies. i think you should read about the backports repo. apparently that has something to do with it.
[00:31] <Glowball> bastid_raZor: Creating the file, or using it to restore from it?
[00:31] <Glowball> bastid_raZor: Creating seems to work fine. Restoring.. I certainly hope so...
[00:31] <bastid_raZor> Glowball: the first aptitude command.. it did create the mypackages file?
[00:31] <Glowball> Yes
[00:32] <bastid_raZor> Glowball: possibly, i'm  having typo's..
[00:32] <LogicFan> using 9.04, I recently upgraded via Update Manager to the latest kernel (2.6.28-16) and now Volume Applet (2.26.1) no longer works at all.  Only using Volume Control allows me to change the volume at all
[00:32] <Glowball> But on opening it, I see some words are split where they shouldn't..
[00:32] <Glowball> Well, at hyphens, that is
[00:32] <LjL> Glowball: uh, like what?
[00:32] <Glowball> alsa- *enter* base
[00:32] <LjL> uhm
[00:32] <DasEi4> Glowball: if you're doing an upgrade, you'll keep your current packages
[00:33] <bastid_raZor> Glowball: i have a failing harddrive.. that may possibly part of the cause
[00:33] <DasEi4> Glowball: or will you do a fresh install ?
[00:33] <Glowball> DasEi4: I know, but I'm freshly reinstalling ;)
[00:33] <thenetduck> hey how can I transfer a file from my desktop via ssh to my server in the command line?
[00:33] <Glowball> Using my hard drive a little bit more efficiently
[00:33] <DasEi4> Glowball: then that won't work, as the versions differ, can only use it as a list
[00:34] <Glowball> Atm I have about 10GB unallocated space..
[00:34] <DasEi4> man scp | thenetduck
[00:34] <thenetduck> thanks
[00:34] <fallore> i'm using 9.10, and pressing a button while i move my cursor makes the cursor temporarily freeze. this does not happen on windows vista. any ideas?
[00:35] <Glowball> DasEi4: You're saying that it won't work because of differences in 9.04-9.10?
[00:35] <DasEi4> thenetduck: if you want to do it from inside ssh rsync is nice, too
[00:35] <DasEi4> Glowball: yes, as this list generates more then just the plain packet-names
[00:36] <Glowball> DasEi4: So what can I do to fix that?
[00:38] <domenico> ciao
[00:38] <domenico> !list
[00:38] <DasEi4> Glowball: ah, I'm sorry, just saw the factoid changed from dpkg to the aptitudes variant, so I was wrong, no that will work, you get just the plain paketnames from that
[00:39] <Glowball> DasEi4: Ah, ok.. And what about the enters?
[00:39] <Splunge> Can i install Ubuntu on a external hard drive?
[00:39] <scunizi>  yep
[00:39] <ActionParsnip> Splunge: sure
[00:39] <DasEi4> Glowballs: enters ? entrys ?
[00:39] <Splunge> really? is there a special command?
[00:39] <ActionParsnip> Splunge: the live cd has an option to install to usb
[00:40] <odie5533> How do I set WPA encryption from the terminal?
[00:40] <ActionParsnip> Splunge: provided your system can boot from usb

[00:42] <Lucho_33> ubottu tahnks
[00:42] <DasEi4> Lucho_33: unless it's very exotic hardware, bad burns are main reason for live/installer not working

[00:44] <DasEi4>  Lucho_33: and burn it slow
[00:45] <bastid_raZor> Lucho_33: burn at the slowest speed.. 2x or 4x
[00:45] <odie5533> thanks ActionParsnip
[00:45] <Lucho_33> I burnt it at 4x
[00:45] <cdm10> ard1an: your modem is acting as a router -- google its model and instructions for how to port-forward with it.
[00:45] <DasEi4> ard1an: that's just the firewall then
[00:45] <Tyler5> I still need help for the following: Soft reset failure on hard drive and RAID failing to load a mirror.
[00:45] <ard1an> i use ubuntu
[00:45] <Lucho_33> Mother MSI KM4M-l
[00:45] <ard1an> how about the firewall there ?
[00:45] <Lucho_33> may it be an old machine?
[00:46] <cdm10> ard1an: the firewall in the modem, which may be a NAT of some sort.
[00:46] <DasEi4> ard1an: ufw if enabled is default, ufw allow 22
[00:46] <bastid_raZor> ard1an: also your ISP might block port 22. my previous ISP did.

[00:46] <ard1an> yes i think my ISP might block
[00:47] <DasEi4> ard1an: want me to scan your ip ?
[00:47] <bastid_raZor> ard1an: in that case use port 2222 or something similiar.. regardless you'll still need to port forward.
[00:47] <zvacet> Lucho_33:  It should work but maybe some issues see http://www.google.com/cse?cx=012285703143635244993%3Ai9yr8qlpb18&q=+MSI+KM4M-l&sa=Search&siteurl=crunchbang.org%2Fubuntu-search-engine%2F

[01:02] <bazhang> fallore, might consider getting edubuntu on there
[01:02] <kreppnar_> aye
[01:02] <kreppnar_> good for learning at that age
[01:02] <bazhang> !info edubuntu-desktop
[01:02] <fallore> bazhang, you wouldn't happen to know what EoN is would you? your name looks familiar
[01:03] <Out_Cold> so what's this enterprise cloud thing?? is that for multiple server instances?
[01:03] <pro> apt-file find comm give me a lot of things
[01:03] <pro> what i need to write?
[01:04] <clearscreen> pro: you can narrow it down by searching for /usr/bin/comm instead
[01:04] <itilious> bazhang, isnt mythbuntu a whole linux installation?
[01:04] <clearscreen> pro: in this case, it's in coreutils package :)
[01:04] <Out_Cold> itilious, it can be
[01:04] <pro> but i dowloaded coreutils but there isn't comm ps  uniq commads
[01:05] <zerq> fallore: netbook remix might be a good idea
[01:05] <bazhang> itilious, depends on you, you can make it such with backend and front end, what did you have in mind for 'PVR' if not a Tivo like set up
[01:05] <zerq> fallore: makes the UI very simple
[01:05] <pro> *there aren't
[01:05] <itilious> i was going to use xbmc originally but mythtv i believe has the ability to record from an anolog signal right?
[01:06] <clearscreen> pro: then you didn't install it correctly.. the file /usr/bin/comm is definitely in the coreutils package
[01:06] <itilious> that is my main objective
[01:06] <pro> ok i reinstall it
[01:06] <longcat> So I have some iptables rules and one of them is -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j SNAT --to <gateway>.  I want to forward a certain IP that uses this router to another gateway and used the same rule but -s <ip>.  However all the packets are still being forwarded to the original gateway, even the ones from <ip>.  What could be wrong here?
[01:06] <bazhang> itilious, not familiar with xbmc, though there is a PPA for it
[01:06] <ssdfdf> my computer keeps crashing there a way i can find out why?
[01:07] <blue1> when I start xsane i get this message:  WARNING: Unhandled message: interface=org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable, path=/, member=Introspect  followed by:  failed to open device 'hpaio:/usb..." error during device i/o - suggestions?
[01:07] <itilious> bazhang, i simply need any application that is linux noob user friendly to capture some analog video :)
[01:07] <ardchoille> bazhang: Is there a master list of all PPA's?
[01:08] <bazhang> ardchoille, I think there is a search mechanism, perhaps a directory, let me check
[01:08] <DasEi4> ard1an: seems like no fw there, mind if I pm you ?
[01:08] <RS-232> I am trying to create a node in my module, and when I try to use node_object_prepare I get the following error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function node_object_prepare() in /var/www/drupal/sites/all/modules/Custom/ITWT/import_customers/import_customers.module on line 146
[01:08] <ard1an> no problem DasEi4
[01:08] <Wallace> How do I turn off the sound effect played when the login screen is displayed?
[01:08] <longcat> These rules are not sending a certain source IP to an alternative gateway.  What am I doing wrong?  http://pastebin.com/mcda33a3
[01:09] <ardchoille> Wallace: That setting is in the Login Window gui
[01:09] <pro> i dowloaded now coreutils .deb and comm ps and cut and others commands are not there
[01:09] <pro> now ?
[01:09] <Wallace> ardchoille, I can't change the settings once I'm logged in?
[01:09] <clearscreen> pro: what does ls /usr/bin/comm say?
[01:10] <zerq> anyone recommend a good settings gui for trackpad?
[01:10] <bazhang> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas ardchoille here is something
[01:10] <ardchoille> Wallace: yes, it's in System > Administration > Login Window in the Accessibility tab
[01:10] <ardchoille> bazhang: Ah, that's great. Thanks for the link
[01:10] <pro> ls /usr/bin/comm say /usr/bin/comm

[01:10] <bazhang> ardchoille, you're welcome :)
[01:11] <ardchoille> Wallace: under "Sounds"
[01:11] <clearscreen> pro: that means the file is installed, try a reboot

[01:15] <ardchoille> Wallace: Maybe that change has something to do with the way Karmic handles things, many things are different than in Jaunty

[01:16] <pro> wait ... i have ubuntu on my computer and i have my linux distribution on usb pen drive ok ?

[01:16] <bazhang> pro, which version of Ubuntu on your pen drive
[01:16] <AuToMaTiC> what?
[01:16] <pro> no it is linux kernel
[01:16] <pro> linux kernel compiled
[01:16] <mikepett> wondering if anyone can help me get my ubuntu netbook remix installation started... I downloaded the file and followed the directions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick but it won't boot on my netbook. When I select the USB as the boot device it just boots windows normally ignoring the usb
[01:16] <bazhang> pro, you want help with the pen drive, correct?
[01:16] <Out_Cold> smooth one Jkessler
[01:16] <pro> no
[01:16] <Jkessler> i regged it months ago :P
[01:17] <bazhang> Jkessler, dont do that.
[01:17] <pro> i need to get comm , ps , uniq , grep commands on pen drive
[01:17] <mikepett> I'm also on a Mac computer, trying to make the usb for my other netbook which currently has windows on it.
[01:17] <Out_Cold> mikepett, there may be an option on boot priorities.. you should double checck the bios options
[01:17] <pro> those commands are not in coreutils package
[01:17] <ardchoille> bazhang: kinda sounds like he's building a LFS distro on the pen drive
[01:17] <pro> i have dowload it now and i can't find them
[01:18] <mikepett> I'm selecting the USB as boot option, that's not the issue, I'm not preparing the USB drive correctly or something
[01:18] <silensius> i have no space in /home how can'i move on oder disk my home partion
[01:18] <bazhang> pro, what are you trying to do with the pen drive, is it an ubuntu install on there, and if not, which linux distro
[01:18] <Out_Cold> mikepett, you may be enabling USB to boot but is it priority 1?
[01:18] <pro> my pen drive work good  i need just some commands on the shell
[01:18] <bazhang> Jkessler, dont advertise that channel again
[01:19] <bazhang> pro, please answer my question
[01:19] <pro> baz is linux kernel compiled with shell  .
[01:19] <mikepett> doesn't need to be... I can access the boot menu when the computer boots and then tell it to boot from USB just for that boot
[01:19] <bazhang> pro, so its not ubuntu
[01:19] <pro> it is not
[01:20] <george> so how do we customize the grub
[01:20] <ardchoille> !grub2 | george
[01:20] <george> yeha
[01:20] <pro> then?
[01:20] <AuToMaTiC> ubottu: can you help me out
[01:20] <Out_Cold> mikepett, ok so did you make the iso on the USB or did you just copy the file?
[01:21] <pro> baz?
[01:21] <ardchoille> AuToMaTiC: ubottu is a bot
[01:21] <george> hey my network devices are unmanaged
[01:21] <AuToMaTiC> oh

[01:21] <fallore> how do i unsuspend a computer
[01:21] <silensius> how to move a full partition  " /home " to an other disk
[01:21] <george> i mean i had used sudo pppoeconf
[01:21] <mikepett> I followed the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick which basically told me to run this command...
[01:21] <george> after which this happend
[01:22] <snoopy> Hello everyone.
[01:22] <mikepett> sudo dd if=/path/to/downloaded.iso of=/dev/rdiskN bs=1m

[01:22] <AuToMaTiC> can any1 assist me in installing the OS
[01:22] <oldbstrd> fallore: wiggle jiggle the mouse or press the enter key
[01:22] <ardchoille> AuToMaTiC: Installing Ubuntu?
[01:22] <bazhang> pro, this is Ubuntu support only. try ##linux
[01:22] <snoopy> Which version of Counter Strike works on Ubuntu 9.04?
[01:22] <mikepett> ...which appears to execute correctly as I have ubuntu files on the usb drive after the command completes. I even see the autorun.inf file.
[01:22] <AuToMaTiC> yes
[01:22] <ardchoille> !install | AuToMaTiC
[01:22] <AuToMaTiC> can i show you a video
[01:22] <Iowan> george:  Is networking working in spite of warning?
[01:22] <AuToMaTiC> of whats going wrong
[01:23] <fallore> oldbstrd, that doesn't work.
[01:23] <ardchoille> AuToMaTiC: The link the bot posted is the official info, try that first
[01:23] <george> no
[01:23] <george> i mean i am just not able to even detect the networks
[01:23] <oldbstrd> fallore:  hit ctrl alt backspace
[01:24] <george> the network manager shows it unmanaged
[01:24] <Iowan> george:  Does /etc/network/interfaces have more than 2 lines defining "lo"?
[01:24] <ardchoille> oldbstrd: Firstly that is a bad way of restarting X, secondly that key combo has been disabled recently
[01:24] <Out_Cold> mikepett, are you running linux already?
[01:24] <AuToMaTiC> i have it semi installed ardchoille
[01:24] <fallore> oldbstrd, that didn't work either
[01:24] <DaZ> ardchoille: why bad? >:
[01:24] <ardchoille> AuToMaTiC: Have you tried the troubleshooting section in the links the bot posted?
[01:24] <george> yes
[01:24] <AuToMaTiC> http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/4893/issue.png
[01:24] <george> it has lots of lines
[01:24] <AuToMaTiC> yes
[01:24] <ardchoille> DaZ: doesn't save stuff
[01:24] <george> first is the auto lo
[01:25] <mikepett> no... right now the netbook I'm trying to install ubuntu on has windows xp on it, but I'm working from my Mac (this is where I downloaded the ubuntu iso).
[01:25] <DaZ> meh.
[01:25] <george> and then auto eth0
[01:25] <snoopy> Which version of Counter Strike works on ubuntu? X_X
[01:25] <maxagaz> sudo echo foo > bar doesn't workd, what else should i use ?
[01:25] <george> then it loopback
[01:25] <oldbstrd> sorry restart the computer and check all your settings before using suspend fallore
[01:25] <george> then wlan0
[01:25] <george> adn its loopback
[01:25] <george> then dsl-provider and some more of its contents
[01:25] <Jamed> i am trying to set up wpa_supplicant, but it doesnt work if i use the wext-driver. I have a Broadcom BCM4312 wireless card. Which driver should i use instead?
[01:26] <ardchoille> DaZ: If you're been working two days on a text doc and you hit ctrl+alt+bckspc, the text doc doesn't get saved and you don't get prompted
[01:26] <Out_Cold> mikepett, might need to turn the boot flag on the usb?
[01:26] <snoopy> anyone?
[01:26] <DaZ> ardchoille: not saving for two days is just stupid
[01:26] <damo22> what is the name of the software firewall in ubuntu?
[01:26] <kayla> Can someone help me figure out how I can get my pictures off my Nikon Coolpix s220 ? I plug it in and notin happenes
[01:26] <bazhang> damo22, iptables ?
[01:26] <Out_Cold> damo22, firestarter is the GUI
[01:26] <bazhang> snoopy, check the appdb
[01:26] <ardchoille> DaZ: True, but people do it so best to advise a better way just in case
[01:26] <mikepett> Out_Cold: very good possibility... how would I do that?
[01:27] <bazhang> !appdb | snoopy
[01:27] <Iowan> george:  Those definitions are why they are unmanaged.
[01:27] <george> so what do i do
[01:27] <DaZ> and most of the text editors do backups every few minutes
[01:27] <george> i mean do i comment them all
[01:27] <DasEi4> !paste > ard1an
[01:27] <Out_Cold> mikepett, not sure on mac lol maybe check out some forums or a mac channel
[01:28] <mikepett> Out_Cold: no problem... crazy thing is I did this before to get ubuntu on my daughters netbook, had no problems! Can't believe I can't figure it out all of the sudden. Has to be something stupid I'm over looking.
[01:28] <mikepett> Out_Cold: thanks for trying
[01:28] <Iowan> george:  You can comment out all but "auto lo" and "iface lo inet loopback" - may not fix all problems, though
[01:28] <Out_Cold> mikepett, it's always something small that makes you smack yourself afterwards ;)
[01:28] <cdavis> when make a change to an apparmor.d file, is there anything that needs to be done other than a restart of apparmor?
[01:29] <george> k
[01:29] <george> i will do that then
[01:30] <neverender13009> im trying to get songbird and my ipod to work on ubuntu 9.10...and it works fine..lets me sync stuff to it..but then it'll only play the first 4 seconds of a song over and over...anybody know why this might be? I thought i did everything properly
[01:31] <ardchoille> neverender13009: Kinda sounds like a "preview" optiion somewhere, just a guess
[01:31] <neverender13009> ardchille: preview option?
[01:31] <neverender13009> *archoille
[01:31] <ardchoille> preview the first few seconds of a song
[01:32] <ardchoille> neverender13009: as I said, just a guess
[01:32] <mistahjc> hey is it possible to install i tunes on my ubuntu 9.10 using wine or somthing
[01:32] <Out_Cold> ardchoille, although it's usually 10 secs for a preview... but still a guess :p
[01:32] <ardchoille> !itunes
[01:32] <Out_Cold> mistahjc, use something other than itunes.
[01:32] <bazhang> mistahjc, no
[01:32] <neverender13009> Ardchoille: well i can skip ahead to any point in the song..and it will play exactly 4 seconds from that point..but then it just reverts to playing that over and over
[01:33] <kcj1993> mistahjc: why do you want itunes
[01:33] <mistahjc> ok
[01:33] <ardchoille> neverender13009: ok, bad guess
[01:33] <mistahjc> i have itunes music that i bought

[01:34] <ardchoille> Out_Cold: Comments like that aren't really productive here

[01:34] <trism> Out_Cold: items isn't drm'd anymore...
[01:34] <trism> Out_Cold: itunes I mean
[01:34] <oldbstrd> mistahjc: try atunes it is the itunes alt for linux

[01:35] <scunizi> kayla: is it a nikon?
[01:35] <kayla> yes
[01:36] <dryg> is there a terminal command to view the network IP of the computer?
[01:36] <joshritger> I have an old Gateway solo 1450 laptop from around 2002, I have been trying to install xubuntu or a derivative of ubuntu on the laptop. The problem I am having is that with 8.04 my wifi card doesn't work, but with 9,04 and 9.10 the graphics are buggy. I get artifacting in 9.04 and a flashing screen in 9.10 but the wifi card works. I am currently installing 8.10 and want to know if I can still get the updates for it
[01:36] <Iowan> dryg: ifconfig
[01:36] <dryg> internal ip, rather
[01:36] <neverender13009> are there any arguments as to why Amarok would be superior to Banshee or songbird? I'm tired of struggling with songbird on everything..
[01:36] <scunizi> kayla: go to Places and see if it shows up there in the menu.. don't forget to also look in the "Removeable Media" section of Places.
[01:36] <bazhang> !intrepid
[01:36] <dryg> thanks
[01:37] <mistahjc> i want to rip my mp3s of my ipod and put them on my comptuter there sync it so it has my itunes \
[01:37] <bizarrechaos> dryg: ip addr
[01:37] <mistahjc> an so i dont loose my money i put into this
[01:37] <bazhang> mistahjc, should do, I have used banshee in the past, depends on model of iPod
[01:37] <dryg> ?
[01:37] <Black_Phantom> joshritger, the death date of 8.10 is on April 2010
[01:38] <kayla> scunizi, it doesnt show up there and I dont see a removable media... i have Xubuntu 9.10
[01:38] <kayla> if that make s a ifference
[01:38] <bizarrechaos> put it in terminal
[01:38] <joshritger> Black_Phantom: thanks, I will make an apt on cd to back up the updates
[01:38] <mistahjc> i have the first nano that playes videos 16gigs
[01:38] <dryg> neither of those commands show an IP address
[01:38] <joshritger> Black_Phantom: do you have any idea why the graphics would have regressed with a newer release?
[01:38] <Out_Cold> kayla, you can check in the file browser and point it to /media/
[01:38] <LucidGuy> Trying to install Xen on an Ubuntu 9.10(karmic) system with no luck.  I'v installed (apt-get install) ubuntu-xen-server and a handfull of other xen-XXX packages.  To my knowledge I should have a xen kernel in place before starting up any VMs but the ubuntu-xen-server packages does not seem to have installed a xen kernel option.  This GRUB2 is not helping either.  Can someone point out what else I need?  What am I m
[01:38] <LucidGuy> issing?
[01:38] <Black_Phantom> joshritger, No problem; Good idea.
[01:38] <scunizi> kayla: by the way.. I find it faster to pull the SD card and use a reader.. probably won't make a difference.. I have 8.04LTS right now.. Nikon also has a menu option to put it in "harddrive" mode or similar
[01:39] <Black_Phantom> joshritger, what graphic card do you use ?
[01:39] <mistahjc> does that work for banshee
[01:39] <jongberg1> dryg: are you using ubuntu? what version?
[01:39] <scunizi> kayla: might also be labeled usb
[01:39] <Squideshi> The getting started help page for the system log viewer says to choose System Tools > Log File Viewer, but this isn't true in Ubuntu.
[01:39] <bazhang> mistahjc, you have ubuntu installed?
[01:39] <mistahjc> yes 9.10 full installed
[01:39] <dryg> jongberg1, 9.04 on the box i'm working on
[01:39] <joshritger> Black_Phantom: I am not really sure, it is in an old laptop, some intel based card, not really sure which model
[01:39] <bizarrechaos> it will say inet next to the ip
[01:39] <bazhang> mistahjc, why not install banshee and try then
[01:40] <jongberg1> dryg: then the command ifconfig should work if done in the terminal
[01:40] <mistahjc> ok i will but does it work with my ipod
[01:40] <dryg> bizarrechaos, <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:40] <dryg> :(
[01:40] <bazhang> mistahjc, not sure, earlier models are more likely to
[01:40] <joshritger> Black_Phantom: how would I check this through the terminal?
[01:40] <Black_Phantom> joshritger, try "sudo lspci |more"
[01:40] <mistahjc> cool cool
[01:40] <oldbstrd> mistahjc: i would try a variaty of them so you get an idea
[01:40] <nytek_> how do you term off highlighting in rxvt

[01:41] <bouma> could someone advise the best way to backup a hdd before it fails, with dd ?
[01:41] <joshritger> Black_Phantom: will try, to look it up, will take me a few min, currently installing it right now
[01:41] <bizarrechaos> thats the lo it should be under eth1 or eth0
[01:41] <bouma> or should i use dddump ?
[01:41] <Iowan> dryg: ifconfig -a should show all interfaces
[01:41] <echosystm> you havent been using ubuntu for long have you mistahjc

[01:42] <duffydack> !dontzap
[01:42] <echosystm> bouma, dd is fine
[01:43] <Out_Cold> ubuntu is the best and worst of linux and it's fairly user dependent on that opinion
[01:43] <echosystm> do you want to do it to an image or clone an entire disk or what?
[01:43] <Guest8780> Hello Guys I can not get qOS to recognice the hunday  model 90 monitor an ideas
[01:43] <hfeistg> how can i apply the 915 resolution patch to grub?
[01:43] <Freeaqingme> Just had to fix 10 (windows) pc's. I'm loving linux...
[01:43] <kayla> ok i dont have a card reader so that options is out for the moment
[01:43] <echosystm> if you want to clone an entier drive its just dd if=/dev/sdX of=/dev/sdY
[01:43] <racecar56> i have a HDD that testdisk can find ext3/2 partitions hiding in a non-partition-tabled area, how do i recover the contents of the partitions?
[01:44] <Out_Cold> kayla, what about the hard disk option? does your camera have that option?
[01:44] <echosystm> reverse the arguments to restore
[01:45] <plitter> http://matlab.pastebin.com/m4c2b85a3 could someone help me a bit, trying to use the saveas command in matlab but cant find the file afterwards
[01:46] <echosystm> can anyone help me find a guide to setting up backlight/cpu throttling changes on ACPI events?
[01:46] <echosystm> or is this all set up in ubuntu by default?
[01:46] <echosystm> (i havent used ubuntu in a long while)
[01:46] <Out_Cold> kayla, I just pulled a usb internal card reader out of an old box that you are welcome to have.. just gotta pay S&H ;)
[01:47] <Billiard> echosystm: you can change the brightness when on battery in the power settings i think
[01:47] <Wizzup> Hi. I am using ethtool to set my internet speed to 100 Mbps instead of 10Mbps. Now I want it to be permanent... But how do I save it, without some nasty hack? In other words, does Ubuntu have a config file for this?
[01:48] <kayla> Out_Cold, I dont see the hard drive option and i dont know that your card reader wil work,.... I have a laptop
[01:48] <echosystm> Billiard, I don't run gnome
[01:48] <echosystm> this is a CLI install
[01:48] <Billiard> echosystm: ok
[01:49] <Wallace> Any idea where I can look for info on setting up a webcam on a compaq presario laptop?  It appears to be installed, but I can't seem to get a picture on it.  I've tried testing in ekiga, and my cam is listed, but the 'local video' options are greyed out - I've not managed to find anything on any forums that have helped
[01:49] <Wizzup> I think I found it, nevermind
[01:49] <Out_Cold> kayla, yea won't work in a laptop.. can you open a terminal, unplug the camera, plug it in, then run dmesg
[01:50] <bouma> but i need to duplicate the partition table too! echosystm: should i dd the source sdb straight to the dest, sdc, sdc is larger, or should i create partitions and dd from partition to partition
[01:51] <codeyman> does anybody know of any tool that will allow me to write on the desktop wallpaper
[01:51] <zerq> http://gothamist.com/2009/11/28/crooks_shoot_man_for_tv_but_its_too.php (..big for getaway car.. -_-)
[01:51] <Guest8780> Any help outhere with the hunday 90 monitor
[01:51] <codeyman> something like paint/gimp working area (but as a wallpaper?)
[01:51] <Black_Phantom> codeyman, edit the desktop wallpaper background with an image editor, even paint can do that lol
[01:51] <Billiard> !ot > zerq
[01:52] <bouma> echosystm: can i copy the partition table from one drive to another?
[01:52] <usr13> kayla: tail -f /var/log/messages
[01:52] <codeyman> Black_Phantom: I know that :) .. just wanted to know if I can do it without going through the paint like apps
[01:52] <kayla> Out_Cold, http://paste2.org/p/537977
[01:53] <Black_Phantom> codeyman, oh I see, are you actually trying to use the desktop for quick notes ?
[01:53] <codeyman> yes.. Just want to be able to write on the wallpaper as if it were a wall..
[01:53] <Out_Cold> kayla, what about sudo fdisk -l
[01:53] <codeyman> and I dont want to use any stick notes apps
[01:53] <lockd> codeyman, you will need an application for that though
[01:54] <codeyman> lockd: app is fine as long as it is invisible to me
[01:54] <lockd> you can really set anything as your root window and replace the gnome desktop, but I don't think that's what you want
[01:55] <codeyman> lockd: I know that.. I dont use gnome (I use wmii)
[01:55] <codeyman> so any app that can magically make my desktop writable would go great with the tablet
[01:55] <hfeistg> if i installed a custom grub in /opt/grub2 where do i put my grub.cfg?
[01:55] <creeed> hello
[01:56] <kreppnar> could i get some help with a fullscreen game problem?
[01:57] <Adam75> I installed gnome-do and docky ... then after restarting my computer I can't move my mouse proertly... Why? i've unticked them from my gnome-session-properties
[01:57] <creeed> I got an ip-adress from my dhcp-server (<IP_ADDRESS>) and I cant use it to browse into the webserver as http:<IP_ADDRESS>:80 just localhost or <IP_ADDRESS> are available!
[01:57] <neon_> besides tvtime is there another tv application, i can get my hauppauge tuner to work ok under mplayer but changing channels is cavemen dated
[01:57] <creeed> how can I bind this ip to reconize my localhost?
[01:57] <DBO> Adam75, i kinda doubt there is a direct connection between the two
[01:57] <kcj1993> kreppnar:don't ask to ask, just ask
[01:57] <kreppnar> haha well i just cant figure it out
[01:57] <kreppnar> doom 3, quake wars
[01:57] <kreppnar> i get into the game
[01:57] <Adam75> DBO; You do? I think there is.. everythin worked fine.. before installing them
[01:58] <kreppnar> then my cursor dissapears
[01:58] <kayla> usr13, Out_Cold , http://paste2.org/p/537986
[01:58] <DasEi4> creeed: from where to do you want to access the server ?
[01:58] <kreppnar> but when i open the console in the game, i get my cursor back
[01:58] <gluonman> I just put a new hard drive into my computer. When I start the computer, it's significantly louder than the other hard drive that was already in the computer. What can I use in Ubuntu that might help me diagnose the hard drive and see if the noise levels are a concern or not?
[01:58] <DBO> Adam75, did you try uninstalling them?
[01:58] <creeed> DasEi4, browser
[01:58] <creeed> webbrowser
[01:58] <kreppnar> even if its in a window mode
[01:58] <Adam75> DBO; How do I uninstall them from terminal?
[01:58] <ardchoille> !enter | kreppnar
[01:58] <DasEi4> creeed: network was the quest
[01:58] <DBO> Adam75, sudo aptitude remove gnome-do
[01:58] <Adam75> DBO; sudo dpkg -l | grep Gnome Do
[01:58] <Adam75> sudo dpkg -l | grep Gnome?
[01:58] <Out_Cold> kayla, sudo fdisk -l (lower case L)
[01:59] <Black_Phantom> codeyman, I'm afraid there is no app for that so far on Linux, try searching within compiz plug-ins maybe ?
[01:59] <Guest67310> hey whats up room im having problems with virtualbox like setting it up seems to be somewhat difficult to me. I dunno why. But my problem is it wont boot any disk any ideas you guys
[01:59] <Guest67310> ?
[01:59] <DasEi4> gluonman: smartmontools offer lot's of reporting, else get a live tool from the vendor
[01:59] <creeed> DasEi4, I just want to access my computer with the dhcp-ip-adress from the webbrowser!
[01:59] <kreppnar> any ideas?
[01:59] <codeyman> ok.. I'll search.
[01:59] <DasEi4> creeed: from where ? inside the lan or from the inet ?
[01:59] <Leemp> Anyone else find that flash SUCKS on linux? lol. It seems that 75% of the time flash refuses to accept input events (clicking, etc)
[02:00] <Out_Cold> Guest67310, did you set up an iso file as a cdrom image?
[02:00] <Black_Phantom> Guest67310, Did you download it from th reps. or from the website ?
[02:00] <Black_Phantom> the*
[02:00] <creeed> Dasda, inside the lan first
[02:00] <Adam75> DBO;  and for gnome docky?
[02:00] <neon_> besides tvtime is there another tv application, i can get my hauppauge tuner to work,  it works ok under mplayer but changing channels is cavemen dated
[02:00] <gluonman> DasEi4, I'll give that a try. Thanks
[02:00] <creeed> DasEi4, I added the ip-address to the host-file bur no success!
[02:00] <DBO> Adam75, are you using standalone docky (the new one) or the old one that shipped with GNOME Do?
[02:00] <scyx> hi, does anyone have any experience with installing ubuntu moblin remix ontop of a karmic install? are there any instructions on how to do it, any known issues, is it even possible?
[02:00] <Adam75> DBO; I installed Gnome-DO first, then docky..
[02:01] <Adam75> DBO; I will try to reboot now after uninstalling gnome do
[02:01] <DBO> Adam75, sudo aptitude remove docky
[02:01] <Guest67310> out_Cold Black_phantom na i didnt set up the cdrom as an image and i downloaded it from the website the rep is ose and it doesnt have the usb boot
[02:01] <DasEi4> creeed: I still don't get you; you got two machines in a lan that you want to connect ?
[02:01] <kreppnar> neon_ kaffeine has a tv player support
[02:01] <kreppnar> neon_ try that
[02:01] <creeed> DasEi4, even in the same computer I cant access to the webserver when I use the ip-address, which I got from the dhcp server, I can just use localhost hostname or <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:01] <kayla> Out_Cold, http://paste2.org/p/537992
[02:01] <Adam75> DBO; I'm rebooting now, I've just uninst gnome.do.. lets see
[02:01] <Out_Cold> Guest67310, you have the VM installed though?
[02:02] <creeed> DasEi4, bestimmt kannstu deutsch, oder?
[02:02] <DasEi4> creeed: you run a webserver on that, ja, ubuntu-de ?
[02:02] <Adam75> DBO; I can't click anything.. and my mouse is moving in strange ways
[02:02] <Guest67310> out_Cold yes its installed. really i dont know how to use it. i know at school i just open vmware and stick the cd in and click start and it automatically starts
[02:03] <Guest67310> im not sure what the problem is here
[02:03] <Out_Cold> Guest67310, you have a cd you want to boot or an iso file?
[02:03] <Guest67310> a cd
[02:03] <DBO> Adam75, did you reboot?
[02:03] <Guest67310> Out_Cold a cd
[02:03] <kcj1993> amarok won't play!
[02:03] <Adam75> DBO; uninst gnome-do didnt work
[02:04] <DBO> Adam75, not surprised
[02:04] <Adam75> DBO; uninstalled gnome docky now
[02:04] <DBO> Adam75, its just "docky" not "gnome docky"
[02:04] <Out_Cold> Guest67310, you need to set the options when you make a new OS setup. Which means you probably also have to create a new setup for an OS. I recommend starting off with the help menu ;)
[02:04] <DBO> Adam75, I should know, I wrote it :P
[02:04] <Adam75> DBO; I know, uninst.. docky.. nothing
[02:04] <kcj1993> anyone know why?
[02:04] <Adam75> DBO; What can be wronng? ;/
[02:04] <DBO> Adam75, again not surprised, Docky doesn't screw with your mouse in any realistic way
[02:04] <imtrynow> window show 1
[02:05] <joshritger> Black_Phantom: I got 8.10 to install on the laptop, I ran the command you told me to run to check the graphics chipset, and it is a intel 82830 chipset
[02:05] <DBO> Adam75, install any updates recently
[02:05] <Guest72596> Out_Cold when i click start i get Fatal Error: no bootable medium found
[02:05] <zerq> does i686 stuff run on Atom?
[02:05] <Black_Phantom> Adam75, try sudo aptitude remove gnome-do-docklets
[02:05] <kcj1993> anyone?
[02:06] <jazzencat> zerq, so far as i can tell, yes.  I'm running i686 stuff on an ASUS Eee PC
[02:06] <kcj1993> what does i686 even mean?
[02:06] <Adam75> Black_Phantom; Trying now
[02:06] <jazzencat> Referes to a generation of x86 CPUs
[02:06] <kcj1993> ok
[02:07] <jazzencat> you have 386, 486 etc
[02:07] <tokam> Hi, I use a notebook from dubai with german keyboard layout but i need some customisation because i am missing the # and the <> characters.
[02:07] <Adam75> DBO; I don't know.. I've rebooted comp several times.. just this time made it fuck up
[02:07] <tokam> how could i set up my own combinations?
[02:07] <Out_Cold> Guest72596, that's because you have not set any options. when creating a new OS, you need to make a disk image and also add a cd drive to access if you are using a cd to install
[02:07] <kcj1993> my first computer was a 486
[02:08] <DBO> Adam75, for the sake of sanity, have you tried another mouse?
[02:08] <jazzencat> Now I need to see if I can get a customised e16wm running instead of the GNOME netbook interface.
[02:08] <HilBilly> mine was a Sinclair.
[02:08] <HilBilly> at least first store bought computer.
[02:08] <Adam75> DBO; I don't have another mouse ,/
[02:08] <kcj1993> but i mean 486 from the 90's
[02:08] <Adam75> DBO; my mouse moves.. i just can't click anywhere and it doesn't move the way i want it to
[02:08] <usr13> tokam:  Here's mine:  #<>
[02:08] <Guest72596> Out_Cold lol all i had to do was edit my settings so that it will mount the cdrom drive
[02:08] <DBO> Adam75, can you be a little more descriptive about "not moving the way I want it to"?
[02:09] <randy_> hi all
[02:09] <tokam> what re u trying to tell me usr13? I need help to costumise my layout.
[02:09] <randy_> how is it going tonight
[02:09] <Adam75> DBO; Trying to move left causes it to move barely right
[02:09] <usr13> !hi | randy_
[02:09] <HilBilly> dang .. can't remember if the sinclair was 70's or 80's
[02:09] <Black_Phantom> joshritger, one moment
[02:09] <jazzencat> 80s iirc
[02:09] <jazzencat> early 80s maybe late 70s
[02:09] <joshritger> Black_Phantom: np
[02:09] <Out_Cold> kayla, maybe try this out? http://www.koppenburg.org/D90/v1.html#mount
[02:09] <scyx> does anyone have any experience with installing ubuntu moblin remix ontop of a karmic install? are there any instructions on how to do it, any known issues, is it even possible?
[02:09] <jazzencat> My grandpa had one
[02:09] <DBO> Adam75, I really think you need to find someones mouse to borrow to test with
[02:10] <HilBilly> 81
[02:10] <tokam> my problem is, that i have no letter next to the german y (english z)
[02:10] <Out_Cold> Guest72596, sounds about right. you also need a hard disk image if you plan to actually install anything
[02:10] <ripper> sup randy_
[02:10] <tokam> and there we usually have this brackets in germany.
[02:10] <Iowan> !moblin
[02:10] <trism> tokam: perhaps something like this? http://hektor.umcs.lublin.pl/~mikosmul/computing/articles/custom-keyboard-layouts-xkb.html
[02:10] <randy_> hi ripper
[02:10] <Adam75> DBO; Works fine on my other computer..
[02:11] <Black_Phantom> joshritger, how is the graphics working ?
[02:11] <randy_> hey ripper do you know about ubuntu 9.10 segfaulting on everything
[02:11] <DBO> Adam75, interesting... if it helps, I am completely stumped
[02:11] <Black_Phantom> different than 9.04 and 9.10 joshritger
[02:11] <Black_Phantom> ?
[02:11] <tokam> yeah thats it trism: but looks like it takes long time!
[02:11] <ripper> i've seen it segmentation fault on a few things, but not with EVERY action you do.
[02:11] <jaypetey> ok, so i've been searching all night and haven't found anything useful... does anyone know of just a simple program that will show what windows on the desktop are running? (sort of like a clickable alt+tab)
[02:12] <randy_> even update manger is segfaulting
[02:12] <Out_Cold> kayla, while it may not be a perfect solution, if it works, it works ;)
[02:12] <thrope> hi - i just upgraded to 9.10 and get an imminent disk failure warning through a very nice graphical smart program - the only problem reported is "seek eror rate" - is this likely to be accurate or could it be a mistake in the sw?
[02:12] <Black_Phantom> joshritger, try "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel"
[02:12] <joshritger> Black_Phantom: the graphics run fine on 8.04 and 8.10, but the last two releases have video problems
[02:12] <randy_> does anyone else know about the segfault problem with ubuntu 9.10
[02:12] <jazzencat> how would i get to a console mode in 9.10UNR?  when i do ctrl-alt-del to kill the wm/de i only get options for  restart, shutdown, hibernate etc
[02:13] <DaZ> randy_: check your memory
[02:13] <jazzencat> randy_, never run into it yet
[02:13] <usr13> thrope: http://www.hdsentinel.com/hdslin.php
[02:13] <Black_Phantom> joshritger, I guess that is because they marked them as restricted drivers on 9.04 & 9.10, did you check 'Hardware drivers' in System > Admin > Hardware drivers and check if they were restricted ?
[02:13] <randy_> did memstat no errors
[02:13] <ripper> it seems memtest86+ would be in good order
[02:13] <creeed> how can I access from my local machine to my webserver using the lan ip address (example http://<IP_ADDRESS>:80)
[02:13] <usr13> thrope: sudo ./hdsentinel
[02:14] <joshritger> Black_Phantom: I checked for restricted drivers in the newer releases and got nothing
[02:14] <rpr> thrope, run smartctl -A, It'll show you everything the drive is telling.
[02:14] <Black_Phantom> joshritger, did you try "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel" ?
[02:14] <ripper> randy_, they are talking about you running memtest86+
[02:14] <usr13> jazzencat: Ctrl-Alt-F6
[02:14] <thrope> rpr: ok - but I have all that info through the nice palimpsest utility
[02:14] <ripper> i have a copy
[02:14] <jazzencat> thanks, usr13
[02:14] <randy_> did last night no erros
[02:14] <ripper> want me to bring it to you?
[02:14] <me__> hello, can someone help me install java, i am getting an error during the extracting phase: ./jre-6u17-linux-i586.bin: 366 .install.sfx.2472: not found
[02:15] <joshritger> I am currently in 8.10, I can try 9.10 and that, but I have to load the live cd first to try it
[02:15] <usr13> creeed: ssh <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:15] <Adam75> DBO; Should i run recovery mode?
[02:15] <ardchoille> !java | me__
[02:15] <Black_Phantom> me__, are you compiling ?
[02:15] <joshritger> Black_Phantom:I am currently in 8.10, I can try 9.10 and that, but I have to load the live cd first to try it
[02:15] <ripper> hrmmm
[02:15] <Black_Phantom> joshritger, I dont think you can test it on the live cd, since when you reboot ( which you need when you install the driver ) it will reset everything back
[02:16] <ripper> randy_'s memtest86 ran with no errors last night (he's my roomie) and were both confused about this.
[02:16] <neon_> besides tvtime is there another tv application, i can get my hauppauge tuner to work,  it works ok under mplayer but changing channels is cavemen dated
[02:16] <thrope> usr13: hdsential reports Est. lifetime: 0 days - uh oh
[02:16] <joshritger> Black_Phantom: oh, didn't think of that, I will try reinstalling 9.10 and then try to instasll the intel driver how you told me to, I will let you know if that works
[02:16] <randy_> firefox, gache, update manager, all show segfault
[02:16] <rpr> thrope, then you should be abl to tell if other parameters are high too. If it's only the seek error rate then maybe it's not too bad.
[02:17] <DaZ> randy_: strace something until it crashes and paste the log
[02:17] <jaypetey> neon_: have you tried mythtv? i use it with a hauppauge tuner all the time
[02:17] <ripper> macd, you around?
[02:17] <thrope> rpr: everything else is fine - just seek error rate, but it reports imminent failure
[02:17] <usr13> thrope: Maybe it's time for a new one?
[02:17] <Guest11682> Black_Phantom: i am following the instructions here: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/5000010500.xml#selfextracting
[02:17] <neon_> jaypetey: mythtv setup is torture to say the elast
[02:18] <Black_Phantom> joshritger, if it didnt we have a choice to download the driver from Intel's website and to compile it manually :)
[02:18] <Black_Phantom> Guest11270, what version are you using of Ubuntu ?
[02:18] <neon_> and yes, i tried it i have a hauppauge 1600, it works great under mplayer just changing channels is ridicously painful
[02:18] <usr13> neon_: what is wrong with changing channel via mplayer?
[02:18] <neon_> i have to use ivtv-tune command
[02:18] <Guest11682> Black_Phantom: how do i find out/
[02:19] <rpr> thrope, the "imminent failure" is reported because the seek error rate is higher than the mfg likes.
[02:19] <neon_> i get the remote recognize with lirc but i can't change channels
[02:19] <Guest11682> Black_Phantom: 9.10
[02:19] <randy_> running
[02:19] <joshritger> Black_Phantom: ok, thanks, will be back after it installs
[02:19] <gluonman> DasEi4, I'm not sure what to look out for in /var/log/messages after I run smartd
[02:19] <Black_Phantom> Guest11682, then just go to Ubuntu Software Center under Applications > search 'Java' and click install then everything goes on automatically
[02:20] <thrope> rpr: i dont really understand this line   7 Seek_Error_Rate         0x000f   027   026   030    Pre-fail  Always FAILING_NOW<PHONE_NUMBER>934
[02:20] <thrope> because 27 is value, 26 is worst and 30 is threshold
[02:20] <Guest11682> Black_Phantom: there are many options..
[02:20] <thrope> so it looks like 27 is below the threshold... but perhaps im reading it wrong
[02:20] <Black_Phantom> Guest11270, to be more accurate "Sun Java 6 Runtime"
[02:21] <Black_Phantom> guest11682, to be more accurate "Sun Java 6 Runtime"
[02:21] <s3a> how can you check/change how long sudo remembers that you entered your password until it decides to forget it?
[02:22] <DaZ> s3a: man sudoers [;
[02:22] <Guest72596> Out_Cold Yea i have it installed it works perfectly now. in order for the virtualbox to boot off the cd virtualbox has to mount the drive in order to boot from it
[02:22] <thrope> rpr: it mustbe a mistake right? the raw value is<PHONE_NUMBER>934
[02:22] <jaypetey> does anyone know of a window picker program/applet/screenlet that would work in both compiz and openbox?
[02:22] <Black_Phantom> s3a, I assume it is 60 minutes
[02:23] <Adam75> Dbo--- mouse doesn work.. i just tried keyboard
[02:23] <s3a> Black_Phantom, isnt it more like 5 min the default?
[02:23] <rpr> thrope, the 027 is the seek error rate scaled to 100...0. 100 means perfect and 0 means dead. 30 is the limit that the mfg set. 27<30 so the SW issues the warning.
[02:23] <Guest72596> Out_Cold lol sorry dude didnt know i was reading old post. but hey thanks for the help.
[02:23] <gluonman> How can I check my harddrive to make sure it's reliable before I transfer my data to it?
[02:23] <randy_> http://pastebin.com/m318105a5  this is all I can get from strace my system froze up
[02:23] <thrope> rpr: oh right, lower numbers... got it.. makes sense then that it is below threshold... try to get it changed next week
[02:23] <Out_Cold> so i just installed a LVM partitioned server setup and on boot, i get that the /dev/mapper/media-root does not exist, that it's dropping to busybox shell... any ideas? i already went back and tried to repartition the LVMs
[02:23] <Guest11682> Black_Phantom: thanks! java is working now
[02:23] <Black_Phantom> s3a, do you actually want to change the time limit ?
[02:23] <Black_Phantom> guest116, Np:)
[02:24] <usr13> gluonman: http://www.hdsentinel.com/hdslin.php
[02:24] <rpr> thorpe, the raw value doesn't mean anything unless you have drive manual. It's often bitfields, not just a count.
[02:24] <s3a> Black_Phantom, no i dont lol, i just want to know for configuring other systems in the future
[02:24] <usr13> gluonman: sudo ./hdsentinel
[02:24] <gluonman> usr13, I'll check that out.
[02:25] <elchiludo> guys i somehow changed the gdm login screen in karmic,i wish to change it back to its default,anybody know the command to reset it?
[02:25] <s3a> Black_Phantom, well i do but not yet i just rather know things in advance
[02:25] <s3a> Black_Phantom, (not on my system)
[02:25] <DaZ> s3a: read the friendly sudoers manpage
[02:25] <DaZ> it's in there.
[02:25] <usr13> elchiludo: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-10223.html
[02:26] <DaZ> password/timestamp_timeout
[02:26] <Out_Cold> friendly and manpage don't go well in the same sentence
[02:26] <thrope> rpr: thanks for the help
[02:26] <DaZ> it looks pretty decent imo
[02:27] <elchiludo> @usr13 it doesnt work like that in karmic,karmic took off the gdm customization for a faster boot
[02:27] <Black_Phantom> s3a, to make stuff easier/safer try "sudo su" it will make you root forever ( I guess not sure )
[02:27] <con-man> guys, my mouse doesn't like flash programs, it wont click the buttons its so bizzare.  I have no idea where to even start looking. Any ideas?
[02:27] <thrope> rpr: do you know if its worth unmounting or turning off the machine for the time being
[02:27] <thrope> rpr: its a while before I can get physical access
[02:27] <Out_Cold> Black_Phantom, i think it's sudo -i
[02:28] <s3a> it is sudo -i
[02:28] <Black_Phantom> oh yeah, thanks Out_Cold
[02:28] <con-man> sudo su works as well
[02:28] <con-man> both sudo -i and sudo su work
[02:28] <Black_Phantom> I just know su from debian :)
[02:28] <s3a> well i have su
[02:28] <brian183> can anyone help me get audio capture to work in vlc using a creative live notebook cam... I get video in VLC, cheese, skype but no matter what I can't get the audio off my webcam mic in VLC, I can tell i sound prefs that the mic is turned on. please help.
[02:28] <con-man> guys, my mouse doesn't like flash programs, it wont click the buttons its so bizzare.  I have no idea where to even start looking. Any ideas?
[02:28] <s3a> anyways given that i need to reasd alot, ill just do this later because i have homework
[02:28] <brian183> im running karmic
[02:29] <Out_Cold> con-man, but acts differently than sudo -i... sudo su creates 2 commands while sudo -i does only 1
[02:29] <usr13> elchiludo: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/XFree-Local-multi-user-HOWTO/automation_login_screen.html
[02:29] <P67> How does one fix the error concerning  "gdm-binary[7671]: WARNING: GdmDisplay: display lasted 0.278336 seconds
[02:29] <con-man> Out_Cold, is the end result not the same?
[02:29] <rpr> thrope, if you're concerned for your data then I'd just unmount the drive and keep it spinning unless it makes noises
[02:29] <Black_Phantom> brian183, #videolan :)
[02:29] <elchiludo> thats more like it!! thanxs @usr13
[02:29] <elchiludo> goodbye
[02:29] <Black_Phantom> brian183, #videolan is made for VLC
[02:30] <brian183> fair enough
[02:30] <Out_Cold> con-man, depends on the usage. i can't remember the exact differences but the sudo su can cause complications
[02:30] <DaZ> con-man: it's a bug in gtk2.18
[02:30] <con-man> DaZ, about the sudo stuff or my mouse not working in flash?
[02:30] <usr13> Out_Cold: Doesnt cause any complications, but the user might.
[02:30] <DaZ> con-man: explain me how can gtk be related to sudo <:
[02:31] <con-man> DaZ, so upgrade my gtk?
[02:31] <P67> How does one fix the GDM display erroring from the upgrade to 9.10?
[02:31] <DaZ> con-man: 2.18 is the newest
[02:31] <con-man> DaZ, so downgrade?
[02:31] <DaZ> con-man: so live with it
[02:31] <Out_Cold> lol
[02:31] <DaZ> con-man: does it sometimes work or only doesn't?
[02:31] <con-man> DaZ, its intermittent
[02:32] <con-man> DaZ, mostly doesn't but if I click enough times it works for a few clicks
[02:32] <DaZ> con-man: then it can be something else :f
[02:32] <usr13> DaZ: gksu - GTK+ frontend for su and sudo
[02:32] <con-man> DaZ, and its not something that I can live with, I may as well not have flash installed at all its so useless
[02:33] <s3a> (gksu for su and gksudo for sudo)
[02:33] <DaZ> usr13: thank you, cpt. obvious
[02:33] <DaZ> con-man: 64bits?
[02:33] <con-man> DaZ, yessir
[02:34] <DaZ> con-man: are you using 64bit flashplayer or 32 through a wrapper? :f
[02:34] <P67> Is anyone known with the GDM Display errors, and willing to help out?
[02:34] <con-man> Da
[02:34] <con-man> DaZ, how can I check
[02:36] <randy_> I ran strace on firefox and my system froze up ripper is ssh in my system and was able to unfreeze it should I try to run strace again
[02:36] <gluonman> I ran some diagnostics on a harddrive I just installed in my computer. It says everything is fine, but it's electric discharges are really loud, like those old computers. Is there any reason to be concerned? Should I move the HDD to another spot?
[02:36] <ripper> heh my other ssh session locked up randy_ , was running strace on /bin/bash
[02:37] <DaZ> con-man: that's a hard question [;
[02:37] <randy_> damn it man what is up with 9.10
[02:37] <DaZ> randy_: it works for everyone else
[02:37] <con-man> anyone here know how I can check if I am running 64 bit flash or 32 bit flash with a wrapper?
[02:37] <ripper> DaZ, he has no memory issues.
[02:37] <Out_Cold> RaNdY, you could move to the user friendly windows 7 at $199.99 US
[02:38] <randy_> not
[02:38] <usr13> con-man: dpkg -L pkg-name  or  less /var/lib/dpkg/info/flash
[02:38] <ripper> windows 7 is not worth using as hobo toilet paper.
[02:38] <usr13> con-man: dpkg -L pkg-name  or  less /var/lib/dpkg/info/flash*
[02:38] <randy_> that true ripper
[02:38] <Unruly-1> but who would spend $199.99 for Win7 when you can use Ubuntu at the cost of $0 and configure it to your own liken
[02:38] <usr13> con-man: dpkg -L pkg-name  or  ls /var/lib/dpkg/info/flash*
[02:39] <randy_> right
[02:39] <Out_Cold> very true Unruly-1
[02:39]  * DaZ would.
[02:39] <Out_Cold> it just costs you lots of grey hair and several sleepless nights
[02:39] <bazhang> !ot
[02:39] <Unruly-1> I've Ubuntu 9.10 and aside from minor Pulseaudio issues its running ok
[02:40] <senioriz> im having trouble booting my server when i have no HDD's connected (except the OS drive) it says it cannot boot from /dev/sdi1 ... why doesnt grub.cfg use UUID ? :(
[02:40] <irnmn> Is it unusual for a Ubuntu 9.10 x64 to suddenly and randomly FORGET how to use flashplayer?
[02:40] <randy_> for some reason my ubuntu keeps freezing up to the roint I have to hard boot
[02:40] <randy_> then today I got segfault on anything I tried to run
[02:40] <P67> Is anyone well aware of LVM2 based systems? I'm trying to set up a partition on a recently installed system (9.10) with normal partitions except for a big partition on an LVM base. However with 9.10 and 9.04 dmmod should be in the kernel. How can i find it?
[02:40] <irnmn> Booted up and my laptop has arbitrarily decided at first not to play any sound in Flash apps, and now it has chosen not to load them at all.  -No updates or installations were made in the past 2 days.
[02:41] <DaZ> randy_: is it like this since you've installed it?
[02:41] <GNS3_user> !bear
[02:41] <GNS3_user> !bear
[02:41] <ripper> DaZ, it happens randomly after updates
[02:41] <]pablo[> someone tell me why to switch to ubuntu from debian?
[02:41] <randy_> the freeze up started right after a freash install
[02:41] <GNS3_user> better icons
[02:41] <GNS3_user> :P
[02:41] <randy_> then today I got segfault errors
[02:41] <senioriz> is it safe to change /dev/sdi1 to the drives UUID in grub.cfg ?
[02:41] <pilif12p> hey all. Do uyou know if its possible to use a WUSB300N to work on Ubuntu?
[02:42] <eddie128> Hi,  just wondering if anyone feels like helping me with a problem with a problem related to shutting down when using karmic, ck-kit, gnome and mythtv????
[02:42] <pilif12p> s/uyou/you
[02:42] <Out_Cold> ]pablo[, i was using debian and i noticed that they use a lot of older "stable" versions of software. ubuntu uses new "stable" software
[02:42] <unique> im trying to smbmount and im using -o username=Guest but my windows computer has no password for my Guest account and smbmount is asking me for password
[02:42] <unique> i try just hitting enter but it tells me Sorry, try again
[02:42] <pilif12p> Will it work out of the box, or do i need a driver?
[02:43] <]pablo[> Out_Cold: I use squeeze/sid so i should be up-to-date sorta, the only thing i see better with ubuntu is it saves you a lot of work by seamlessly integrating software

[02:43] <con-man> npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
[02:43] <]pablo[> i.e. stuff works out-of-the-box
[02:44] <con-man> does that mean its 32bit with a wrapper?
[02:44] <con-man> usr13, con-man@con-man-desktop:~$ ls /var/lib/flashplugin-installer/

[02:44] <Out_Cold> ]pablo[, i noticed several apps that were out of date but i was using lenny so maybe squeeze is more up to date
[02:45] <iceroot> con-man: then you are using a 64bit linux but flash is only available at 32bit, so there is a program which makes it possible to use flash 32bit with linux 64bit
[02:45] <lstarnes> iceroot: flash is available for 64-bit
[02:45] <iceroot> lstarnes: not in the repos
[02:45] <lstarnes> iceroot: but from adobe
[02:45] <iceroot> lstarnes: i know
[02:45] <pilif12p> no one konws?
[02:45] <pilif12p> knows
[02:45] <con-man> iceroot, my mouse doesn't work with flash programs, someone suggested the version of flash (32/64) might have something to do with it
[02:46] <iceroot> con-man: never heard of mouse-problems with flash. sorry
[02:46] <con-man> why does my mouse not work this is annoying
[02:46] <con-man> :(

[02:48] <eddie128> Hi,   I'm new here.   I was hoping someone could help point me in the right direction.   I have a problem that seems new to the Karmic release so there is limited info on launchpad.     I don't want to give my girlfriend my password so she can't shutdown.   Any ideas on how to disable the new 'feature' or stop mythbackend from using a session?
[02:53] <Dwade09> hi all i have a bug for a game i play called uplink, it doesnt act right. http://pastebin.com/m6c7da646  is the link to the bug. its lines 21 and down.
[02:54] <Out_Cold> eddie128, multiple users logged in has needed sudo rights for a while. apparently it's not cool to shut out other users while they are using the system
[02:54] <con-man> usr13, con-man@con-man-desktop:~$ apt-cache search flashplugin
[02:54] <con-man> flashplugin-installer - Adobe Flash Player plugin installer

[02:55] <Guest24082> !!
[02:55] <eddie128> Out_Cold  For some reason Mythbackend uses a session though.   It's not a 'real' user.   I am the only one logged in.
[02:55] <P67> help
[02:55] <P67> Oops :)
[02:56] <usr13> con-man:  sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[02:56] <DaZ> eh
[02:56] <Out_Cold> eddie128, maybe see if there is an appropriate group to add yourself to that allows shutting down without the password?
[02:57] <DaZ> usr13: is plugin in the repo 64bit or 32? :f
[02:57] <usr13> con-man: If that doesn't work, try: apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[02:57] <usr13> DaZ: I don't know.  I don't know that it matters.
[02:57] <con-man> usr13, done restarted firefox didnt work, and flash-plugin installer is installed already
[02:58] <DaZ> eh ;f
[02:59] <eddie128> Out_cold  I tried adding myself to groups,  no luck unfotuntately.    I don't see why mythbackend is the only process that needs to run its own user session.

[03:09] <DasEi4> senioriz: sudo blkid
[03:09] <curriegrad2004> and this is a fresh install of ubuntu
[03:09] <usr13> con-man: Maybe so...
[03:09] <curriegrad2004> the only other thing I installed on there is gw6c
[03:09] <con-man> usr13, k
[03:10] <senioriz> senioriz yea but should i just change it in grub.cfg ? switch root=/dev/sdi1 to root= the uuid ?
[03:10] <rrohbeck> curriegrad2004: you have to be root to use a port <1024
[03:10] <curriegrad2004> is there a way to overcome that limitation?
[03:10] <usr13> con-man: sudo rm /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/flashplugin-alternative.so
[03:10] <curriegrad2004> because I've got icecast installed using the defaults
[03:11] <curriegrad2004> so I don't think there's a reason to run icecast2 in root
[03:11] <curriegrad2004> CentOS did let me do that, but ubuntu server isn't letting me listen on port 80
[03:13] <rrohbeck> curriegrad2004: You can make the program owned by root and use SETUID (see man chmod.) Or use sudo.
[03:13] <Guest6682> Has anyone been successful with solving the "Kernel Panic - not syncing: VFS..." problem?
[03:13] <randy_> I am still here
[03:14] <kevin___> Has anyone been successful with solving the "Kernel Panic - not syncing: VFS..." problem?
[03:14] <kevin___> I can't seem to find  a solution to this anywhere
[03:14] <webbb82> i jusgt installed firefox 3.6 beta 4 the other day and it launched just fine at first but now when i click on the firefox icon it wont launch it  ,if i del it and unzip it again then make a new launcher it will launch for a while then stop whats going on
[03:14] <con-man> usr13, now flash wont load at all
[03:14] <curriegrad2004> rrohbeck: icecast2 is owned by root
[03:15] <rrohbeck> kevin___, that's a generic message you see every time the kernel dies. Usually HW or driver problem.
[03:15] <cowbud> webbb82: chances are when you are quitting firefox is still running but it isn't complaining that it is next time it stops drop to a terminal and do a ps auxww | grep firefox and see if it is still there
[03:15] <kevin___> rrohbeck, its definatly a problem closely related to Wubi and the latest uupgrades on 9.10 karmic
[03:16] <senioriz> DasEi4 should i just change it in grub.cfg ? change root=/dev/sdi1 to root= the uuid ?
[03:16] <kevin___> rrohbeck, i'm not alone w/ this problem -- its all over the forums but nobody has found a solution (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/151146)
[03:16] <webbb82> cowbud, brian@netbook:~$ ps auxww | grep firefox
[03:16] <webbb82> brian     4451  0.0  0.0   3036   804 pts/1    S+   19:16   0:00 grep --color=auto firefox
[03:16] <rrohbeck> curriegrad2004: But does it have the setuid bit set? ls -l should start with -rws
[03:16] <joshritger1> Black_Phantom: I tried installing the newest intel driver as you described, it said I had the newest version, I also found a fix I want to try that involves adding a line to xorg.conf, but I can't find xorg.conf in xubuntu 9.10
[03:16] <scyx> does anyone have any experience with installing ubuntu moblin remix ontop of a karmic install? are there any instructions on how to do it, any known issues, is it even possible?
[03:17] <curriegrad2004> great, icecast2 won't let me run in root
[03:18] <cowbud> webbb82: try with grep -i firefox
[03:18] <Greencoat1982> Anyone able to helo=p with a virtualbox file sharing problem?
[03:18] <bazhang> scyx, there is a package ubuntu-netbook-remix in the repositories, not sure about the moblin remix having such a package, unless it is in a PPA
[03:18] <webbb82> cowbud, what will that do
[03:18] <echosystm> does anyone else find ubuntu packages are a bit bastardised?
[03:18] <curriegrad2004> rrohbeck: ERROR: You should not run icecast2 as root
[03:18] <cowbud> webbb82: case insensitive if it is named Firefox it will show up
[03:18] <rrohbeck> kevin___: Sorry, I've never used Wubi.
[03:19] <echosystm> like what is the point in pulling down gcj with open office
[03:19] <Greencoat1982> I have a windows 7 guest installed on my karmic ubuntu
[03:19] <echosystm> i mean, really
[03:19] <echosystm> its ridiculous
[03:19] <Greencoat1982> I have the guest additions installed and the shared folder created on my host
[03:19] <DasEi4> senioriz: no, fstab has to be altered, and look for /etc/default/grub, run update grub afterwards
[03:19] <webbb82> cowbud, its still searching
[03:19] <cowbud> echosystm: uh cause openoffice uses a lot of java also
[03:19] <Greencoat1982> but I cannot find the shared folder inside the guest network
[03:20] <echosystm> oh really cowbud? i never knew that
[03:20] <cowbud> echosystm: yeah if you don't install java you only get so much of the functionaliy
[03:20] <senioriz> looks like changing to uuid worked.. nice ... why doesnt grub in ubuntu use uuid by default anyway?
[03:20] <echosystm> who would have thought suns cross-platform office system would use their own programming language...
[03:20] <webbb82> in the firefox folder do i want to launch it with the file firefox or firefox.bin
[03:20] <echosystm> (im being sarcastic)
[03:20] <Greencoat1982> or can someone at least point me in the right direction, and not another link
[03:20] <ardchoille> !blkid | senioriz
[03:20] <webbb82> or do i move the .bin file to the bin folder?
[03:20] <senioriz> yee i know
[03:20] <senioriz> lol
[03:21] <echosystm> if you have java-jre/jdk, ubuntu still pulls down gcj
[03:21] <rrohbeck> curriegrad2004: You'll have to search the documentation. If it's supposed to run on port 80 there must be a simple way.
[03:21] <echosystm> which is moronic
[03:21] <senioriz> am just wondering why grub still uses /dev/sdX instead of UUID's by default
[03:21] <senioriz> seems weird
[03:21] <cowbud> webbb82: just the firefox one it is a script that will load the bin one
[03:21] <echosystm> because its easier senioriz
[03:21] <webbb82> ok grep -i firefox is still doing somthing
[03:21] <curriegrad2004> okay, thanks rrohbeck
[03:21] <senioriz> easier.. depends :p
[03:22] <webbb82> i think
[03:22] <rrohbeck> senioriz: Karmic install uses UIDs
[03:22] <senioriz> mine didnt
[03:22] <senioriz> :/
[03:22] <cowbud> webbb82: you have to do ps auxwww | grep -i firefox not just grep -i firefox otherwise it will just sit there, hit ctrl-c
[03:22] <Greencoat1982> So no one has any idea abbout virtualbox here?
[03:22] <webbb82> it went down a line and it just blinking
[03:22] <DasEi4> senioriz: grub-install -v  returns ?
[03:22] <echosystm> whats the issue Greencoat1982?
[03:22] <rrohbeck> Greencoat1982: I do but I missed your question
[03:22] <Greencoat1982> I am trying to move files from a windows 7 guest to my karmic host
[03:22] <webbb82> brian     4462  0.0  0.0   3036   860 pts/1    S+   19:22   0:00 grep --color=auto -i firefox
[03:23] <webbb82> thats wha i get
[03:23] <Greencoat1982> I have the guest additions installed
[03:23] <echosystm> use samba
[03:23] <Greencoat1982> and the host shared folder created
[03:23] <senioriz> gimme a sec DasEi4.. comp not on atm, -v means version ? its 1.97 beta something
[03:23] <cowbud> Greencoat1982: share files in your host OS and then connect to the share via your guest
[03:23] <Greencoat1982> I have samba installed
[03:23] <Greencoat1982> but I cannot find the share from the guest
[03:23] <keith_> hello all
[03:23] <Greencoat1982> I look in the network tab but nothing is there
[03:23] <echosystm> mount it manually
[03:24] <echosystm> smbmount or whatever, i forget the command
[03:24] <DasEi4> Greencoat1982: more a virtualboxquestion, guetextensions installed, define a shared folder, can drag them over, or even copy n paste when configured properly
[03:24] <Greencoat1982> Thats what I remembered from my older installs
[03:24] <DasEi4> senioriz: k then , 1 or higher is grub2
[03:24] <Greencoat1982> but it doesn't seem to like this time
[03:24] <Greencoat1982> I can't get the usb working either
[03:24] <rrohbeck> Greencoat1982: Add the host's IP address to \windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
[03:25] <cowbud> Greencoat1982: start->run \\192.168.XX.XX will connect to your host you don't have to add the IP anywhere
[03:25] <joshritger1> how do I edit xorg in xubuntu/ubuntu 9.10
[03:25] <joshritger1> It doesn't appear to be there?
[03:25] <DasEi4> joshritger1: same as before
[03:25] <Greencoat1982> I can use the XX's?
[03:25] <aperson> joshritger1, you should be able to create it
[03:25] <cowbud> Greencoat1982: no you have to know the ip of your host machine
[03:26] <webbb82> cowbud, what does that mean
[03:26] <webbb82> brian     4468  0.0  0.0   3036   804 pts/1    S+   19:25   0:00 grep --color=auto firefox
[03:26] <keith_> what quickest way to get two ubuntu machines  to files share on a home router?
[03:26] <aperson> joshritger1, it's just not there, because it doesn't really need it, but it should respect any changes you put into it
[03:26] <Greencoat1982> ok I am not seeing the run command in windows 7
[03:26] <DasEi4> joshritger1: much drivers have moved to kernel, but still xorg.conf is read
[03:26] <aperson> keith_, samba
[03:26] <keith_> samba
[03:26] <cowbud> Greencoat1982: type it in the little search bob once you click on the windows emblem
[03:27] <webbb82> is anyone els having problems with the new firefox 3.6 beta 4 launching after a fresh unzip it willl launch then stop launchin after a while
[03:27] <keith_> ok ill try that anything i shuld know befor hand?
[03:27] <Greencoat1982> ok, whats the command to show my ip in terminal in karmic again?
[03:27] <joshritger1> I guess the problem is that I have a flashing screen due to shotty intel drivers for the intel 82830 chipset
[03:27] <rrohbeck> Greencoat1982: ifconfig
[03:28] <Greencoat1982> and it would be the "inet addr:" right?
[03:28] <joshritger1> I have tried to edit xorg and it is not there, I tried to create it and get an error
[03:29] <aperson> joshritger1, did you try to do it as the superuser?
[03:29] <webbb82> cowbud,  check this out this is what i get when i go to the folder firefox is in a launch it  http://pastebin.com/m5803b0db
[03:29] <scyx> bazhang: the moblin packages are in a ppa. but what i'm concerned with is that after installing them i might not be able to get back into the usual gnome session
[03:29] <DasEi4> joshritger1: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf     ?
[03:29] <joshritger1> aperson: yes, I used sudo
[03:29] <aperson> maybe touch the file first?

[03:34] <aperson> asdflk, we can't all answer everyone right off :)
[03:34] <Flannel> kripz: If you want to do that, and keep those packages, you'll need to create a dummy package for firefox
[03:34] <joshritger1> aperson: that doesn't seem to do anything, it didn't show any output and the xorg.conf is sitll empty
[03:34] <asdflk> i know i used to help in here
[03:34] <hum_> hi
[03:34] <aperson> well, if you have the file open yet, it won't show the changes, you have to re-open it
[03:34] <webbb82> i did killall firefox and it said no processes found
[03:35] <aperson> webbb82, pgrep firefox | xargs kill
[03:35] <joshritger1> aperson: I opened the file after I entered the command
[03:35] <asdflk> im hoping this upgrade will fix it i forgot to upgrade after install
[03:35] <hum_> How can I program some graphics UI application on Ubuntu?
[03:35] <hum_> Is that Qt?
[03:36] <ubuntu> Hello! How do i remove GRUB Loader?
[03:36] <microlith> qt/gtk/wxWindows
[03:36] <cowbud> webbb82: again you are assuming there are no capitols in the binary. do a ps auxwww |grep -i firefox
[03:36] <aperson> joshritger1, hmm...  are you using any specific drivers?
[03:36] <hum_> I'd like to study programming on Ubuntu
[03:36] <aperson> !programming | hum_
[03:36] <lockd> webbb82, cowbud: there are no capitals in the firefox binary, unless you're on a really weird distro
[03:36] <joshritger1> aperson: this is a default install, just installed about 45min ago, the problem is a blinking screen and it is slightly offset to one side also
[03:37] <microlith> hum_: that's a very vague statement
[03:37] <ubuntu> Hello! How do i remove GRUB Loader? I use a HP Pavillon restore CD's
[03:37] <aperson> hmm.. could have sworn.  hum_ : gtk for gnome, but you can use qt if you'd like
[03:37] <aperson> joshritger1, what graphics do you have?
[03:37] <cowbud> lockd: or using a binary?
[03:37] <coz_> joshritger1,  which video card do you have
[03:38] <joshritger1> aperson: I have tried 9.10 and 9.04, they both have a problem, but 8.10 works. Intel 82830 built into a laptop
[03:38] <asdflk> hum_ witch language?
[03:38] <kev_> can someone help me fix my sound on ubuntu x64
[03:38] <lockd> cowbud, haven't seen a firefox binary (even from a tarball) like that
[03:38] <kev_> 9.10*
[03:38] <hum_> that should be C or C++
[03:38] <webbb82> cowbud, ps auxwww |grep -i firefox gives me  brian     4604  0.0  0.0   3036   856 pts/1    S+   19:37   0:00 grep --color=auto -i firefox
[03:38] <pdragon_> can anyone tell me witch ubuntu distro cam with gcc 2.4 ?
[03:38] <coz_> kev_,    open a terminal   type  alsamixer    does it recognize the card?
[03:38] <cowbud> webbb82: what other binaries do you hae in that directory? just firefox?
[03:38] <cowbud> webbb82: or also firefox.bin try ./firefox.bin and see if it complains somehow
[03:38] <bastid_raZor> j/w 4
[03:39] <kev_> yes it does, coz_
[03:39] <pdragon_> cowbud do you know id he chmod it ?
[03:39] <asdflk> hum_,  if your doing C/C++ yes qt will be fine
[03:39] <asdflk> will do *
[03:39] <coz_> kev_,   ok  now look to see if any of sliders  are muted or turned all the way down
[03:39] <hum_> I see
[03:39] <cowbud> pdragon_: typically in a tarball your permissions are preserved if it wasn't chmod'd it would have complained with a permission denied
[03:39] <hum_> Thank you aperson and asdflk
[03:40] <kev_> coz_ nope... i checked that 3 times.
[03:40] <pdragon_> can anyone tell me witch ubuntu distro cam with gcc 2.4 ?
[03:40] <hum_> I am like a novice on linux so this question was needed
[03:40] <asdflk> hum_,  np just trying to help so my issue can be fixxed faster
[03:40] <coz_> kev_,   mm and under system/preferences/sound
[03:40] <oYo> do you know about pangocairo?

[03:42] <webbb82> brian@netbook:~/Documents$ cd firefox
[03:42] <webbb82> brian@netbook:~/Documents/firefox$ ./firefox.bin
[03:42] <webbb82> bash: ./firefox.bin: No such file or directory
[03:42] <kev_> yea... maybe i dont have all of the mp3 codecs?

[03:42] <aperson> !grub2 | joshritger1
[03:42] <cowbud> webbb82: you are going to have to either pay more attention to what is in that directory or provide more pastbins
[03:42] <coz_> kev_,   ok unless someone is more prificient with sound issues here ... I am going to suggest going to  #alsa channel or ##linux  as a last resort
[03:43] <aperson> the info in that post isn't relevant to grub2
[03:43] <paddy_melon> Hey, does anyone know where I can get a dump of the Ubuntu wiki?
[03:43] <joshritger1> aperson: what do I need to edit grub 2 for?

[03:45] <cowbud> webbb82: another option is to tell me what your launcher has in it..
[03:45] <webbb82> the firefox file?
[03:45] <webbb82> open in gedit and pastebin?
[03:46] <aishumoorthy> hi can anybody answer my question?
[03:46] <cowbud> aishumoorthy: i did and the answer is no
[03:46] <coz_> upgrayedd,  well  depends on your client  if xchat  go to Sever/List of channels
[03:46] <trism> aishumoorthy: at least with pidgin, see http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/PlainTextPasswords
[03:46] <upgrayedd> what do i type in, plz just tell me
[03:47] <coz_> upgrayedd,  which channel do you want to join
[03:47] <webbb82> cowbud,  http://pastebin.com/m3367ddc1
[03:47] <upgrayedd> any chanel
[03:47] <aishumoorthy> webb82: no just go to accessories->password and encryption-> then there is a folder <called passwords, just see the properties of each account, you can see the password..
[03:47] <coz_> upgrayedd,  well   as I said ...in the place you type for use to see  type      /join #alsa     for example
[03:48] <coz_> upgrayedd, rather where you type when you want us to see what you are saying

[03:50] <coz_> kev_,  well   if you are on ubuntu 9.10 and you remove pulse  you are also going to stop certain sounds like mouse over previews
[03:50] <ironfoot495> coz_: well on the intranet you can see everybody on my network but me!
[03:50] <gluonman> I tried to burn a liveCD (3GB iso file) to a DVD+R. But it said that the DVD+R only had 1.4GB of free space when the cover says its capacity is 4.7GB. It burnt anyway and said it was successful, but my computer is entirely unable to boot from the disc.
[03:50] <webbb82> how do i install the firefox folder
[03:51] <gluonman> What should I do?
[03:51] <coz_> kev_,    if esound is what you want  then perhaps  ...as I mentioned... #alsa channle may have more help  or maybe an #esound channel...but would ask what the downside or removing pulse will do first
[03:51] <webbb82> cowbud, i was always told to just click on the firefox file
[03:51] <coz_> kev_,   I am not sure of all that pulse  will stop if removed  since it is being more and more incorporated into gnome
[03:51] <ironfoot495> coz_:I narrowed it down to nis packages but when I try to apt-get I get a error message saying packages are broken
[03:51] <ironfoot495> .
[03:52] <coz_> ironfoot495,   ok  if on gnome open   /system/administration/synaptic package manager
[03:52] <coz_> ironfoot495,   then under  Edit    clic   Fox broken packages
[03:52] <paddy_melon> Anyone know where a dump of the Ubuntu wiki is? Please???

[03:57] <ironfoot495> yes!
[03:58] <coz_> ironfoot495,   now in that same terminal type   sudo apt-get install -f
[03:58] <awhatley> I made a big whopps

[03:58] <Omen_20> hi im looking to change gconf settings within a script. Some threads talk of using gconftool and others use gconftool-2. How do I know which to use? What is the difference?
[03:58] <ironfoot495> coz_: comprehend!!!
[03:59] <nullbyte> Setting up grub-pc (1.97~beta4-1ubuntu4) ...
[03:59] <nullbyte> error: cannot read from `/dev/sdb'
[03:59] <nullbyte> can some one help me fix that
[03:59] <nullbyte> sdb is what i am currently using
[04:00] <nullbyte> im assuming that it isnt unmounting before doing what its suppose to do
[04:00] <ironfoot495> cuz_: everything came up (0);
[04:00] <trism> Omen_20: at least in karmic, gconftool is just a link to /etc/alternatives/gconftool, which is a link back to gconftool-2
[04:00] <soreau> Omen_20: You can try reading the manual by typing in your terminal: man gconftool
[04:00] <coz_> nullbyte,   I am still getting up to speed with grub2  you could ask in the #gttub channel
[04:00] <coz_> nullbyte,  sorry  #grub  channel
[04:00] <Omen_20> thanks
[04:00] <nullbyte> Thanks coz_
[04:00] <Greencoat1982> How do I setup my sshd?
[04:01] <nullbyte>  /etc/init.d/sshd start
[04:01] <roger_> hello I have rhythm box setup as preferred application for multimedia, however mp3s ALWAYS open with Movie Player, how can i fix this
[04:01] <nullbyte> Greencoat1982,  /etc/init.d/sshd start
[04:01] <nullbyte> *
[04:01] <nullbyte> No one seems to be there
[04:01] <coz_> roger_,   you could right click an mp3 file   go to properties  and then  OPen with tab
[04:01] <nullbyte> in #grub that is
[04:01] <soreau> roger_: Try right clicking on the mp3 in your file browser then click open with other application and select do this every time
[04:02] <Greencoat1982> that should work from terminal right?
[04:02] <nullbyte> Nvm
[04:02] <coz_> nullbyte,    no one?
[04:02] <coz_> nullbyte,  or no one answering right away?  it is not #ubuntu  :)
[04:02] <rrohbeck> roger_, right click->Properties->Open With
[04:02] <Greencoat1982> it tells me command not found
[04:02] <ironfoot495> cuz_: I've tried 9.10 now 10.4 because they are relatively new there seems to be a lot of bugs. I really love there distro's but it's aggrevating.
[04:02] <coz_> nullbyte,  once you are used to the speeds of questions and answers here in #ubuntu other channels may seem a bit sluggish lol
[04:03] <trism> Greencoat1982: it is /etc/init.d/ssh (no d)
[04:03] <ironfoot495> cuz_: do you have any other ideas
[04:03] <ironfoot495> ??
[04:03] <Greencoat1982> ah
[04:03] <nullbyte> coz_,  yes i know :D
[04:03] <coz_> ironfoot495,   no   not off hand I dont...sorry guy
[04:03] <Greencoat1982> still not found
[04:03] <Greencoat1982> where do I install it from?
[04:03] <trism> Greencoat1982: assuming you installed openssh-server
[04:03] <coz_> ironfoot495,  what exactly are you trying to install?
[04:03] <webbb82> cowbud, nothing about firefox is in usr/local/lib
[04:03] <stevo> ironfoot, what did you want to do?
[04:03] <ironfoot495> that's ok I really apprectiate your help.
[04:03] <Greencoat1982> so apt-get openssh-server?
[04:03] <coz_> ironfoot495,  do you have a link for that application?
[04:03] <trism> Greencoat1982: yes
[04:04] <ironfoot495> cuz_: no!
[04:04] <coz_> ironfoot495,  what is the name of it??
[04:04] <nullbyte> coz_,  they said that my  kernel cannot access it
[04:04] <nullbyte> witch would be here
[04:04] <coz_> nullbyte,  oooo
[04:04] <webbb82> does anyone k now how to install the firefox that i got from the mozilla web site in the termianl rather then install it via synaptic
[04:04] <nullbyte> i think my install went bonk
[04:04] <ironfoot495> cuz_: I'm not understanding the quetion??
[04:04] <nullbyte> should i reinstall?
[04:05] <soreau> webbb82: Why are you trying to do that?
[04:05] <stevo> hey, nullbyte, you should be able to do stuff from like a live cd or DSL or sumthin
[04:05] <coz_> webbb82,  you might better off with the synaptic  however if you read the README file located in the pacakge it may be of help
[04:05] <meianandh> hi all, i m using HP dv6t laptop - installed Ubuntu - when i start the ubuntu - my wireless is not working... the wireless Led switch is not working... some one came across this issue
[04:05] <webbb82> because it wont launch
[04:05] <nullbyte>  diablo456
[04:05] <soreau> webbb82: What happens if you try running this in your terminal: firefox
[04:05] <DasEi4> webbb82: own you own risk can add daily build-repo to sourceslist
[04:05] <coz_> ironfoot495,   the  thing you tried to install that gave a  broken package error...what is that called??
[04:05] <DasEi4> !latest
[04:05] <webbb82> is there a way to force install the firexox 3.6 beta in ssynaptic
[04:06] <ironfoot495> cuz_: oh! nis
[04:06] <coz_> ironfoot495,  also if you type the first few letters of someone's nick  then hit tab  you will get the right spelling and that person's text will change colors
[04:06] <soreau> webbb82: Open a terminal and type firefox then press enter to try and see what the problem is
[04:06] <webbb82> The program 'firefox' can be found in the following packages:
[04:06] <webbb82>  * firefox-3.5
[04:06] <webbb82>  * firefox-3.0
[04:06] <webbb82> Try: sudo apt-get install <selected package>
[04:06] <FloodBot4> webbb82: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:06] <soreau> webbb82: Attempting to install a different version than what is offered in ubuntu repos will only complicate things
[04:07] <itilious> why did my "places" turn into a folder called "bookmarks" ?
[04:07] <ironfoot495> coz_: ok!
[04:07] <coz_> itilious,  ah oh  what did you do ?
[04:07] <coz_> ironfoot495,  there you go :)
[04:07] <soreau> webbb82: So you dont have firefox installed. Run this:  sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5
[04:08] <webbb82> well i wouldnt have to do it that way but after i unzip the firefox file and click on firefox it will launch at first but stop working after a while
[04:08] <trism> webbb82: you could add the ppa if you wanted https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ppa
[04:08] <itilious> coz_, nothing i thought they disappeared but it seems ubuntu just moved them all into a subsection labeled "bookmarks" why would it do this on its own?
[04:08] <soreau> webbb82: That command should install firefox and fix your problem
[04:08] <coz_> itilious,  it wont do that on it's own.... can you take a screen shot of that and let me see it
[04:08] <ironfoot495> coz_: this is very disturbing I have so much to do but I've spent a lot of time trying to get the bugs out of this distro,
[04:08] <coz_> itilious,  upload the image to picpaste.com
[04:08] <webbb82> trism, i am tryin to install firefox 3.6 beta 4

[04:09] <trism> webbb82: they have 3.6 beta 5 in the ppa
[04:09] <stevo> webbb82,  you might actually be encountering a bug, as all betas have them
[04:09] <roger_> whats the minimum partition size for a full clean install of ubuntu 9.10..i had a 5GB...but it now its full...i honestly dont know what i did to fill it.. i dont dl anything
[04:09] <coz_> ironfoot495,  I understand  but I cant help unless I know exactly the pacakge name
[04:09] <ironfoot495> coz_: maybe I should have stayed with 9.04 server.:P
[04:09] <roger_> i was messing the system folders and may have copied pasted something in the wrong place
[04:09] <webbb82> whats the ppa for firefox 3.6 beta 5
[04:10] <stevo> roger_, it is 4gb
[04:10] <coz_> ironfoot495,  are you on ubuntu server 9.10 now?
[04:10] <ironfoot495> package name?  no 10.4 but they both have the same MO.
[04:11] <itilious> coz_, ubuntu wont seem to let me take a screenshot while the menu is open
[04:11] <ironfoot495> coz_: I still have a running battle with grub too!
[04:11] <coz_> itilious,   open   applications/accessories/take screenshot   set the dealy for about 5 seconds
[04:11] <coz_> ironfoot495,  well grub2 is something I am still trying to catch up on
[04:12] <ironfoot495> let me see if I can find the packagew although I thought I gave that to you in the paste I forwarded.
[04:12] <ironfoot495> coz_: yeah I have to sit still and figure that out myself!!!
[04:12] <orangey> hey all!
[04:12] <epaphus> Hello, how can I encrypt ubuntu 9.04 entire filesystem?
[04:13] <orangey> how do I completely reinstall an important package like dbus?
[04:13] <stevo> coz_,  you gotta use ksnapshot, where you can delay a shot
[04:13] <coz_> steve,   also gnome screenshot does that as well
[04:13] <stevo> yea yea yea, kde sucks, BLA
[04:13] <itilious> coz_, http://picpaste.com/Screenshot_5.png
[04:13] <dryg> Firestarter is just a frontend for iptables, correct?
[04:13] <soreau> orangey: Very carefully ;)
[04:13] <coz_> orangey,   gnome?  sysmtem/preferences/synaptic package manager///look up the application and right click  set to reinstall
[04:14] <scunizi>  dryg a limited front end
[04:14] <orangey> coz_: not working
[04:14] <dryg> How would I go about allowing inbound traffic on port 5900 without using Firestarter?
[04:14] <orangey> coz_: My dbus config files are messed, but they're not being remade when I reinstall
[04:14] <paddy_melon> Anyone know a place to find a wiki dump of Ubuntu Wiki
[04:14] <orangey> even dpkg --remove --force-all with a subsequent install doesn't do it
[04:14] <paddy_melon> or how to make your own wiki dump
[04:14] <scunizi> dryg: you doing remote desktop?
[04:14] <dryg> Trying to.
[04:14] <coz_> orangey,  remove them first  then reinstall

[04:14] <cdm102> How can I diff a directory tree? diff -r compares the files -- I just want to compare filenames.
[04:14] <stevo> paddy_melon, I wish i knew how to
[04:14] <orangey> coz_ That still doesn't seem to do it
[04:15] <scunizi> dryg: all you should have to do is active access on the machine you want to get into.. you don't need to open any ports unless you're outside of your lan and trying to get in.. then you have to portforward in your router.
[04:15] <epaphus> Hello, how can I encrypt ubuntu 9.04 entire filesystem?
[04:15] <mikepett> how can I send the output of the play command (using sox in terminal) to a sound file?
[04:15] <ironfoot495> coz_: because this part of he error message I'm getting.
[04:15] <paddy_melon> so... no ideas?
[04:15] <dryg> the machine i want to get into is right next to me
[04:15] <itilious> coz_, know why my system would have changed to that for no reason?
[04:16] <paddy_melon> How can I do a simple wiki dump? Possibly via wget?
[04:16] <paddy_melon> Plz help?
[04:16] <dryg> its on the same wireless LAN
[04:16] <Out_Cold> epaphus, the easiest way is to do a fresh install with the alternate install disk
[04:16] <scunizi> dryg: did you go to System>Preferences > Remote desktop and activate there?
[04:17] <coz_> itilious,   no   did you post the screenshot?
[04:17] <dryg> i have not, hold on\
[04:17] <itilious> coz_, http://picpaste.com/pics/Screenshot_5.1259468018.png
[04:17] <orangey> hmmm.
[04:17] <orangey> so, I'm trying to reinstall dbus so I can get the /etc/dbus-1 files
[04:17] <orangey> but it won't do it
[04:17] <orangey> any ideas?
[04:18] <epaphus> Out_Cold, do you know of a tutorial?
[04:18] <ironfoot495> I'm tired and need to rest but I sure would like to accomplih this before I retire for the evening.
[04:18] <coz_> itilious,  oh I see it set the Bookmarks under Places  but not the home directory
[04:18] <ironfoot495> coz_:
[04:18] <coz_> itilious,   hold on let me check
[04:18] <ironfoot495> bb
[04:19] <aperson> steebo72, this is a support room, you can take idle chat to #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[04:19] <aperson> err, nvm
[04:19] <paddy_melon> How can I do a simple wiki dump? Possibly via wget?
[04:20] <trism> paddy_melon: wget -r on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TitleIndex ?
[04:21] <Out_Cold> epaphus, there are many but the easiest way is to follow the onscreen installer and select guided-encrypted lvms
[04:21] <es> Hello all, my system (running in VirtualBox) crashed while it was updating and stopped with xulrunner. I tried reinstalling and running dpk -- configure however apt always terminates with Bus Error while processing the post-installation script error 135 what should I do?
[04:22] <paddy_melon> trism, will that dump the entire wiki?
[04:22] <epaphus> Out_Cold, cool.. is that for the entire filesystem though?
[04:22] <paddy_melon> including pics
[04:22] <coz_> itilious,  is there a Bookmarks folder in the Home directory?
[04:22] <mickster04> hey theres no one on the server channel an i need to know if i can use a usb wireless network device to connect to a lan?
[04:22] <itilious> coz_, nope
[04:23] <mickster04> if so how do i set it up in terminal
[04:23] <coz_> itilious,  and the only thing that is a problem is that the Bookmarks listing showed up right?   can you right click that and delete it?
[04:23] <trism> paddy_melon: well, you'll probably need to play with the arguments, but TitleIndex is supposed to link to every page on the wiki, so it will get all the pages (obviously it won't be a wiki anymore though)
[04:24] <itilious> i want everythign in the bookmarks back to simply in the "places" menu, not a "sub-menu"
[04:24] <paddy_melon> trism... ok, thanks... do U know how people dump the official wiki and, mirror it?
[04:24] <scunizi> dryg: did it work?
[04:26] <trism> paddy_melon: the ubuntu wiki?
[04:26] <mickster04> ok i need to edit grub config from a live disk cos its set to 0 secinds wait an doesnt let me do anything ither than boot into w=one option, how do i fix it
[04:27] <coz_> itilious,   how many  bookmarks  are under  that BOokmarks submenu?
[04:29] <paddy_melon> trism, I mean people mirror the official Wikipedia and, I want to sort of mirror the Ubuntu wiki... so I want to know how the people do it with Wikipedia
[04:29] <coz_> itilious,  are you still here?
[04:30] <coz_> itilious,  if you have I think 5 or more bookmarks  they will be put into a Bookmark sub menu as you have there
[04:30] <coz_> itilious,  you can change that with a bit of work
[04:30] <coz_> itilious,  sorry I wasnt thinking earlier
[04:31] <itilious> coz_, got it, i just deleted some on the completely unnecessary links and it fixed as you said
[04:31] <itilious> makes sense why it would automatically make a folder like that and place the links there
[04:31] <coz_> itilious,  right because it is limited to 5  I believe before going into Bookmakrs  sub menu
[04:32] <coz_> itilious,  that can be changed with a little work
[04:32] <es> Hello all, my system (running in VirtualBox) crashed while it was updating and stopped with xulrunner.

[04:42] <chuckf> try alt-f2 then type in hardware drivers and launch that program

Apparently my vhost isn't being show which is weird, so how do I go about fixing?
[04:43] <jlabomb> is there anyone that can help setup my network? I already have samba installed and under workgroup but I only see my windows computer in there

[04:46] <scunizi> colloguy: don't know that i have the answer but are you reading a text file?.. and if so perhaps dd uses utf8 as default and cat is using something different.
[04:46] <colloguy> scunizi: file is just contains the character '1'
[04:47] <scunizi> colloguy: and what are the differences between the two when read?
[04:48] <colloguy> scunizi: dd says " 1............ (lots of dots) "
[04:48] <colloguy> scunizi: cat says: ......{..Y......\.."....E (etc..)
[04:49] <colloguy> I'm doing dd | xxd and cat | xxd
[04:49] <scunizi> colloguy: ok.. xxd being the file name?
[04:49] <colloguy> xxd is the hex ed
[04:49] <kevin___> Has anyone been successful with solving the "Kernel Panic - not syncing: VFS..." problem?
[04:49] <colloguy> lemme clarify
[04:49] <colloguy> cat <filename> | xxd
[04:49] <colloguy> vs
[04:50] <colloguy> dd if=<filename's block address> | xxd
[04:50] <colloguy> cat could be gedit, doesn't matter
