[08:05] <apporc> gogeta: direct rendering: Yes
[08:05] <wiserd> dc5ala: failed command : read fpdma qued
[08:05] <llutz_> wiserd: sounds like sata-errors, check disk/cables
[08:05] <gogeta> apporc: then you have hardware acell :0
[08:06] <gogeta> :)
[08:06] <apporc> gogeta: then i am not using radeon driver?
[08:06] <gogeta> apporc: you are the oss one
[08:06] <wiserd> llutz_: how?
[08:07] <apporc> gogeta: if i lsmod , the driver would be ?
[08:07] <wiserd> ah, iv loged on in the console
[08:07] <gogeta> apporc: readion or readionhd
[08:07] <llutz_> wiserd: cable: open case, check connections. drive: try to find a service-tool of the drive-builder
[08:08] <apporc> gogeta: radeon?
[08:08] <gogeta> apporc: yea
[08:08] <wiserd> llutz_: is there anyway to get my files of the laptop? if so i will just re install unvuntu
[08:08] <wiserd> ubuntu*
[08:08] <apporc> gogeta: isn't it open source driver?
[08:08] <gogeta> apporc: it is it uses the same name
[08:08] <Acidphase> radeon is driver from Xorg
[08:09] <gogeta> apporc: for relly old cards its just called ati
[08:09] <nit-wit> wiserd, use a live cd to save it to off the computer.
[08:09] <llutz_> wiserd: if it's a hardware-error, no. you'd try to make an image of the disk using dd-rescue and to recover files from that image
[08:09] <Acidphase> there is a open-source driver as well
[08:09] <gogeta> Acidphase: the ones hes using is the oss one :)
[08:10] <gogeta> Acidphase: old card so he only gets that one
[08:10] <wiserd> llutz_: how do i use dd-rescue?
[08:10] <gogeta> apporc: so was there a issue or just whanted to knoe what driver you where running lol
[08:11] <apporc> gogeta: there is a issue that i can't play 1080p video from totem ,but i can do it with xp
[08:11] <Acidphase> well radeon believe or not has more features than radeonhd
[08:11] <dontaltf4mebro> Hello
[08:11] <Acidphase> they pretty much stopped most of the production on radeonhd
[08:12] <gogeta> apporc: try playing it with vlc
[08:12] <gogeta> apporc: i think totem does not do hardware acell
[08:12] <llutz_> wiserd: boot a live-cd containing it, connect a 2nd harddrive (usb) bigger than the failing one, mount it to /mnt, "ddrescue /dev/sda /mnt/hdd.img"
[08:12] <gogeta> apporc: mplayer certenly does
[08:13] <wiserd> llutz_: and if i dont have a usb to connect the computers, im stuffed right
[08:13] <apporc> gogeta: is that fglrx driver the same with that called " closed driver of amd driver"?
[08:14] <dc5ala> wiserd: you can still try a live-cd and see if you can access your files from there
[08:15] <llutz_> wiserd: i asume, you don't backup your data?
[08:15] <duping> hello
[08:15] <wiserd> llutz_: no
[08:15] <gogeta> apporc: yea but i think its a player thing not a driver one
[08:16] <nit-wit> duping, what's up.
[08:16] <gogeta> apporc: vlc does hardware acell
[08:16] <apporc> gogeta: the fglrc driver has the same name with open source drive from "lsmod" . oh god.
[08:16] <bedahr> oh wow. for the record: the user was not in the audio group
[08:16] <duping> i want to know how to use ubuntu
[08:17] <apporc> gogeta: vlc media player ?
[08:17] <DumbIedore> Hi, I have a problem with a lucid server. Sometimes /var/log is not writable any more (even by root). /var remains writable. No info in /var/log/messages or with dmesg. Any suggestions, how I can debug the problem?
[08:17] <gogeta> apporc: yes
[08:17] <nit-wit> duping, kind of a broad request, do you have any partitcular question?
[08:17] <gogeta> apporc: i always rip out any other player in favor of that simply couse it does everything faster
[08:18] <duping> yes
[08:18] <dontaltf4mebro> I come from a windows background, I have invested a lot of time in learning asp.net 4 and other related technologies so I decided to try out mono. I installed monodevelop and figured ubuntu is running an older version which doesn't support mvc 3
[08:18] <duping>  I come from a windows background.
[08:18] <apporc> gogeta: how to rip them out?
[08:19] <gogeta> apporc: lol give vlc a try first heh
[08:19] <apporc> gogeta: heh ,ok .
[08:19] <dontaltf4mebro> ubuntu's repository doesn't have the latest packages for mono 2.10
[08:19] <duping> how to make nvidia
[08:20] <wiserd> llutz_: i get a DConf error message, it says its a dbus error
[08:21] <llutz_> wiserd: as dc5ala mentioned, boot a live-cd and check if the errors will stay
[08:21] <wiserd> ok
[08:21] <llutz_> wiserd: if not, its a good idea to make a backup of your data
[08:22] <dontaltf4mebro> if I separately install mono 2.10 from source, will it mess up the existing 2.6 version?
[08:22] <apporc> gogeta: i have installed VLc .now i am at work, i will try VLC later at home.
[08:22] <gogeta> apporc: lol
[08:23] <apporc> gogeta: i still have a problem about flash player .
[08:23] <gogeta> apporc: flash is a problem
[08:23] <apporc> gogeta: is that because of flash of the driver .
[08:23] <apporc> gogeta: there is nothing we can do about it ?
[08:23] <gogeta> apporc: flash tends to be a reasouce eating monster
[08:24] <apporc> gogeta: yeah . just play a flash video from chrome ,the computer have top load.
[08:24] <gogeta> apporc: yyou can have a new machine and flash is like tieing a ancure on it
[08:25] <gogeta> apporc: chrome uses its own style of playback i found it slower then firefoxes
[08:25] <gogeta> apporc: when it comes to flash
[08:25] <apporc> gogeta: how to say "can't play fluency" with english . I mean , it playes and just stop and then playes again.
[08:26] <gogeta> apporc: slow internet maybe
[08:26] <apporc> gogeta: no ,no .
[08:26] <wiserd> dc5ala: i have my ubuntu live cd loaded now
[08:26] <apporc> gogeta: we call that "ka" in chinese. i don't know how to describe it with english.
[08:27] <kjeldor> I just download utorrent for linux, its a tar.gz file. my question is, how do I install this?
[08:27] <apporc> gogeta: yes sometimes it is because of the slow internet.
[08:28] <apporc> gogeta: it just play , stop ,play ,stop .... because of the big load.
[08:28] <dc5ala> wiserd: then open a nautilus window (file browser) and try to find your harddrive there
[08:28] <wiserd> dc5ala: how?
[08:28] <wiserd> dc5ala: sorry, im new to this
[08:29] <sunit> how can we determine size of different layers of a photoshop (psd) file in ubuntu ?
[08:31] <dc5ala> wiserd: no menu on top?
[08:31] <wiserd> dc5ala: its the ubuntu install cd
[08:33] <gogeta> apporc: i see have you turned off desktop effects
[08:33] <gogeta> apporc: flash can be weard sometimes it works better with them off sometimes on
[08:34] <apporc> gogeta: i use normal effects.
[08:34] <apporc> gogeta: not extra.
[08:34] <dc5ala> wiserd: haven't used the cd for a while but try alt+f2, then enter nautilus there
[08:34] <gogeta> apporc: i also notced youtube new player drage my playback down same thing you said but other sites work fine
[08:34] <gogeta> apporc: turn it to no effect try
[08:34] <apporc> gogeta: ok.
[08:35] <wiserd> dc5ala: i got my files!
[08:35] <eHAPPY> This might seem like a dumb question but where is the best place to put program folders? I want to be able to just type in term "firefox" and it runs
[08:35] <gogeta> apporc: what your doing is playing the video using gl acell
[08:35] <wiserd> dc5ala: i went to try ubuntu and i could get on my HDE from there
[08:35] <wiserd> HDD*
[08:35] <gogeta> apporc: and flash is trying to as well it might be overloading the little card
[08:36] <apporc> gogeta: so there are nothing we can do . just wait the adobe's developer.
[08:36] <llutz_> eHAPPY: ~/bin for personal stuff, /usr/local/bin for dist-wide things
[08:36] <gogeta> apporc: well if it works with effects off salved :)
[08:36] <llutz_> eHAPPY: but you don't put folders there, just the executables
[08:36] <gogeta> apporc: i always turn them off with my ati 9200 or youtube lags
[08:37] <diverdude> hello, i have installed natty on my lenovo T410 laptop. I dont have a taskbar in the bottom. How do i get that?
[08:37] <eHAPPY> llutz_ what if the whole folder is required for it to run?
[08:37] <gogeta> apporc: gotta rember windows xp does not have 3d overlays linux does by defult but can be turned off
[08:37] <dc5ala> wiserd: ah okay, you can find your files in /home/<username>
[08:38] <llutz_> eHAPPY: make short start-script calling the bin, put that script into one of those bin-folders
[08:38] <gogeta> apporc: probly fix your 1080p lag to
[08:38] <gogeta> apporc: give the system more of the card to use
[08:38] <kjeldor> Can anybody guide me to install tar.gz file?
[08:38] <DJones> !classic | diverdude Natty uses the Unity interface by default which doesn't have the same taskbars, they're included in the bar on the left, but if you want the old style interface, this should help
[08:38] <eHAPPY> llutz_ ok thanks :)
[08:38] <llutz_> eHAPPY: btw "folders" are directories :)
[08:38] <eHAPPY> right right
[08:38] <apporc> gogeta: it is called "lag" , that play-stop-play action
[08:38] <wiserd> dc5ala: yup i got it, im just going to take the files i need, thanks for all the help
[08:39] <apporc> ?
[08:39] <ZaHH> question: How can I turn on proxy from commandline
[08:39] <ZaHH> instead of gnome-network-properties
[08:39] <gogeta> apporc: yea hardware isnt keeping up to mutch load
[08:39] <ZaHH> socks proxy
[08:39] <gogeta> apporc: ubuntu effects add to it on old cards
[08:39] <dc5ala> wiserd: good luck but it really looks like a hardware problem, i doubt reinstalling the system will fix that
[08:39] <diverdude> DJones, i like the unity interface, so i dont want classic interface. But i want unity interface with a taskbar
[08:39] <gogeta> apporc: something i never agreed with i care less abought effects just make it work
[08:40] <sweat> eHAPPY: not that i entirely understand what you are after but look into editing your bash profile to add the path to what you want to run
[08:40] <kjeldor> Can anybody guide me to install tar.gz file?
[08:40] <apporc> gogeta: do you have a google+ ,i want to add you to my circle.
[08:40] <gogeta> apporc: see when effects are on when it plays a video its overlaying it over gl compiz has nevefr been good at this
[08:40] <ZaHH> kjeldor: tar -xvf [file]
[08:40] <staar2> kjeldor: unpack and the ./configure ./make
[08:40] <gogeta> apporc: no i do not
[08:40] <DJones> diverdude: I'm not sure in that case, hopefully somebody else will be able to answer that though
[08:41] <staar2> or best is read the README
[08:41] <gogeta> apporc: i have facebook
[08:41] <gogeta> apporc: google+ like to ban you if you use fake info
[08:41] <chipmonk> has anyone ever tried gadmin-samba to manage samba servers etc?
[08:41] <apporc> gogeta: what's your facebook. oh ,in china we all respect google , so ...
[08:42] <Barnabas> chipmonk, yes, I prefer the web GUI personally
[08:42] <Barnabas> or vi :-)
[08:42] <chipmonk> you can get it to work?
[08:42] <gogeta> apporc: imed it to you
[08:42] <jeremy> hello !
[08:42] <kjeldor> ZaHH and staar2, I have already done this: sudo tar xvzf utorrent-server-3.0-25053.tar.gz
[08:42] <kjeldor>  Then I did cd utorrent-server-v3_0
[08:42] <Guest91107> hello !
[08:42] <kjeldor> what is next?
[08:43] <Barnabas> chipmonk, the webgui or gadin-samba?
[08:43] <chipmonk> gadmin-samba
[08:43] <Guest91107> can somebody help me ?
[08:43] <ZaHH> kjeldor: find the README
[08:43] <Barnabas> chipmonk, It did when I tried it last
[08:43] <ThinkT510> !find utorrent
[08:43] <Barnabas> 1+ years ago
[08:43] <gogeta> apporc: turning off effects should give you a preformance boost in video playback both flash and totem
[08:43] <chipmonk> ahh ok

[08:45] <ThinkT510> Guest91107: stop it or ask your question
[08:45] <Guest91107> sorry i thought nobody hear me
[08:45] <Guest91107> so,
[08:46] <Guest91107> how can i change my wifi-card channel ?
[08:46] <diverdude> i cannot see this video since some plugin is missing: http://blip.tv/jorge-castro/how-i-multitask-in-unity-5015448    But it says that no suitable plugin could be found. How can i get the missing plugin?
[08:46] <ZaHH> Im not sure kjeldor, either find a README, some sort of installation executable script in some folder, or check the website you downloaded it from
[08:46] <ZaHH> for instructions
[08:47] <Baph> Guest91107: wifi channels are set on the Access Point, not on the card. The card simply uses the same channel that the AP is broadcasting on
[08:47] <Barnabas> Guest91107, change the channel in your router and reconnect
[08:47] <Guest91107> i explain me
[08:47] <chipmonk> does gadmin-samba store config info where?
[08:47] <Guest91107> i'm trying to hack MY wifi and aircrack-ng (in ubuntu)

[08:47] <dc5ala> diverdude: install flash player?
[08:47] <Guest91107> nel that the AP is broadcasting on
 Guest91107, change the channel in your router and reconnect
[08:48] <diverdude> dc5ala, using packet manager?
[08:48] <dc5ala> diverdude: yes
[08:48] <Guest91107> but it's MY wifi, how can i be in another whannel than my wifi
[08:48] <Guest91107> it's illogical
[08:48] <diverdude> dc5ala, what is package name?
[08:48] <dc5ala> diverdude: flashplugin-installer i think
[08:49] <Baph> Guest91107: it sounds like you need to read up on airodump-ng options, tried the manpage?
[08:49] <llutz_> Guest91107: man iwconfig
[08:50] <Guest91107> ok
[08:50] <diverdude> dc5ala, do i need to restart firefox before it works?
[08:50] <dc5ala> diverdude: don't forget to restart your browser after that

[08:51] <Guest91107> my iwconfig
[08:51] <Guest91107> but call me jeremy, it's my xchat who is bugging
[08:52] <Baph> Guest91107: personally, I'm not going to walk you through hacking your own Wifi connection - from experience, that's something people do because they want to learn Wifi hacking before attacking another network
[08:52] <chipmonk> what terminal command will search for a file from root all the way down the tree?
[08:52] <llutz_> Guest91107: /nick newnick
[08:52] <Guest91107> guest91107 don't please me ='(
[08:52] <diverdude> how do i restart firefox without losing my open tabs?
[08:52] <Baph> Guest91107: at the end of the day, you don't need to change channels to achieve your goal
[08:52] <Guest91107> iv'e tried to do it it dont work
[08:53] <Barnabas> Baph, Unless it is because the neighbor use the same channel
[08:53] <llutz_> chipmonk: find / -iname foo
[08:53] <Guest91107> i wan't hack it, why i've lost mywep key
[08:53] <Guest91107> i'm on a freewifi
[08:53] <Baph> Barnabas: then the question wouldn't be about hacking, it'd be about increasing stability, and in either case, the channel is changed on the AP, not the card
[08:54] <Barnabas> Baph, exactly
[08:54] <jeremy__> okay
[08:54] <jeremy__> but what can i do?
[08:54] <dc5ala> diverdude: there's an options somewhere in the settings to restore your last windows on start
[08:55] <Baph> jeremy__: if you read the airodump-ng manpage, it's all explained there
[08:55] <jeremy__> i'm on ubuntu =)
[08:55] <jeremy__> i've a good tutoorial
[08:55] <llutz_> then read it
[08:55] <ThinkT510> jeremy__: can't you use wpa instead of wep?
[08:55] <jeremy__> i've read it
[08:55] <Free-man> mornin
[08:55] <godfather> i need help
[08:55] <Free-man> we all do
[08:55] <jeremy__> i've not my key, i've lost ot
[08:56] <Free-man> godfather post problem
[08:56] <ThinkT510> jeremy__: if it is your router that doesn't matter
[08:56] <llutz_> jeremy__: /j #aircrack-ng
[08:56] <jeremy__> thanks lluts_
[08:56] <ThinkT510> jeremy__: just set a new one
[08:57] <dr_willis> and write it on the router...
[08:57] <Free-man> (i reject agreement by inference or implication)
[08:57] <Baph> jeremy__: if you're doing this in order to obtain your WEP/WPA key, walk over to your router & hard reset it... then go find the manual for the default settings
[08:57] <jeremy__> okay i'll do it !
[08:57] <jeremy__> bye thank you so much :
[08:57] <Barnabas> jeremy_ or use a regular cable for accessing the thing ..
[08:57] <dr_willis> it prob. is the default. ;)
[08:58] <llutz_> use the wep-key as essid, makes it easier to remember. security is the same
[08:59] <Baph> llutz: that's the first thing I try whenever doing an intrusion test...
[08:59] <Barnabas> a hard reset could wipe out PPPoE/A logins as well on the wan side of the router
[09:00] <llutz_> Baph: successfull in too much cases :(
[09:00] <DasNiche> hey guys
[09:00] <Free-man> hi
[09:01] <Baph> Barnabas: this is true, I'm in the UK, and my PPP login is basically the fact that the connection comes from my line, I forget the rest of the world actually applies security to those sessions :)

[09:06] <phper_> Hello. I have ubuntu 8.04, what is the command to input to upgrade it?
[09:06] <tomgeorge> u can't
[09:06] <phper_> tomgeorge: why?
[09:06] <dr_willis> !eol
[09:07] <YankDownUnder> phper_, You'd have to do 8.04 to 9.04 to 10.04
[09:07] <tomgeorge> well you can't now
[09:07] <phper_> YankDownUnder: yes I want to upgrade to 9.04, what is the command I need to input? Sorry, I can't surf the internet much
[09:07] <tomgeorge> phper_, better to format and reinstall
[09:07] <tomgeorge> Install the 10.04
[09:08] <YankDownUnder> phper_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades
[09:09] <herkupus> an ubuntu release can only be upgraded as long as it is supported. 8.04 support ended in april this year. so backup your data and install 10.04.
[09:09] <YankDownUnder> 8.04 can be upgraded to 10.04. Doesn't anyone read the documentation anymore?
[09:09] <phper_> I can't, I have portable ubuntu that comes with ubuntu 8.04
[09:10] <tomgeorge> YankDownUnder, it can?
[09:10] <tomgeorge> how come?
[09:10] <YankDownUnder> tomgeorge, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades
[09:10] <phper_> I want to keep portable ubuntu, that's why I want to upgrade, not to reinstall
[09:10] <phper_> but I can't surf the internet
[09:10] <dr_willis> portable?
[09:10] <phper_> yes, I runs from usbs even
[09:10] <phper_> *it
[09:10] <ThinkT510> !usb | phper_
[09:11] <Barnabas> phper_, if you can't surf the internet, how are you in this forum? Dark Magic :-)
[09:11] <tomgeorge> phper_, u r running it from a USB?
[09:11] <dr_willis> a    full istall to a flash drive you mean?
[09:11] <phper_> We are not supposed to surf the internet much at work, unless it is for work
[09:12] <Barnabas> phper_, ok
[09:12] <woutervddn> hey guys, I'm on a laptop with an ATI card, but Xorg isn't loading, after the bootscreen it just flickers a couple of times and then stays blank..
[09:12] <drweedbot> hey?
[09:12] <drweedbot> i need help
[09:13] <ThinkT510> drweedbot: to get help you need to tell us the problem
[09:13] <drweedbot> can any one help me install the injection drivers for my wifi card
[09:13] <ThinkT510> drweedbot: injection?
[09:14] <drweedbot> aircrack-ng
[09:14] <Barnabas> woutervddn, during boot can you access the grub menu and try safe mode
[09:15] <Barnabas> woutervddn, then try
[09:15] <Barnabas> dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[09:15] <phper_> tomgeorge: no, from a folder in the hard drive, but I could run it from USB, no problem
[09:15] <woutervddn> Barnabas, I can access it but only with 2.6.35-28-generic
[09:15] <woutervddn> I'll try it..
[09:15] <phper_> but isn't there a command to upgrade my 8.04 ubuntu to 9.04?
[09:16] <herkupus> YankDownUnder: the webpage is wrong (outdated) about upgrading from 8.04 to 10.04. it is no longer possible since lifecycle for 8.04 is over. we are talking about 8.04 desktop, aren't we?
[09:16] <YankDownUnder> phper_, Did you read the page link I sent you?
[09:16] <phper_> no, I couldn't
[09:16] <YankDownUnder> Never mind - never mind.
[09:17] <ThinkT510> phper_: looks like portable ubuntu is like a wubi install
[09:17] <phper_> herkupus: yes, ununtu 8.04 desktop
[09:17] <dr_willis> phper_:  you are runnit in some sort of virtual box/qemu? or  did you do an ormal install to a flash drive
[09:17] <YankDownUnder> If your "portable" install is the same as a desktop install, what's the issue? Jeesh...
[09:17] <phper_> dr_willis: it uses colinux for virtualisation
[09:18] <ThinkT510> phper_: we can't support that here
[09:18] <toumbo> Hi!!I followed the instuctions to repair my nvidia installation http://goo.gl/CXzLf but when I install the current drivers boot stops on plymouth here http://db.tt/65CD81l What should I do
[09:18] <woutervddn> Barnabas, strange though.. my mouse doesn't work in safe mode..
[09:19] <ThinkT510> phper_: why do you use proper ubuntu in a vm like virtualbox?
[09:19] <ThinkT510> don't?
[09:19] <phper_> ThinkT510: I have that, but portable ubuntu lacks a desktop, it only has a taskbar and that integrates it very well with windows
[09:20] <phper_> so, no way to upgrade 8.04? No support anymore?
[09:20] <ThinkT510> phper_: virtualbox has seamless mode that would work in a similar way
[09:20] <dr_willis> so run the update toool and upgrade?
[09:20] <dr_willis> youhave to setup the eol repos.
[09:20] <toumbo> Please help me with my question above... please
[09:21] <osmosis_paul> morning
[09:21] <woutervddn> Barnabas, it gives me perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
[09:21] <kapowaz> hi there. I'm trying to mount a directory on an ubuntu box using NFS on a Mac OS X machine.
[09:21] <osmosis_paul> i have several mysql instances, somebody know how can i autorun that's instances when i reboot the system??
[09:21] <Tigerboy> phper_: I like to keep /home in a separate partition so I can install without formatting home.
[09:22] <kapowaz> I get a permissions error when I try to do so, despite having the IP address of the client in /etc/exports. What gives?
[09:22] <Barnabas> woutervddn, yes, but it probably did a reconfigure of the X server anyways
[09:22] <Barnabas> woutervddn, try to reboot
[09:22] <woutervddn> ow..
[09:22] <woutervddn> ok
[09:23] <woutervddn> Barnabas, still the same :s
[09:24] <diverdude> where is the binary for the terminal located
[09:24] <diverdude> ?
[09:25] <Barnabas> woutervddn, radeon or nvidia or something completely different
[09:25] <Barnabas> ?
[09:25] <woutervddn> radeon
[09:25] <llutz_> $ which gnome-terminal diverdude
[09:26] <woutervddn> mobility radeon HD 4570
[09:26] <Barnabas> woutervddn, I use nvidia, but it seems a lot of ppl have had problems with fglrx and radeon lately
[09:27] <woutervddn> Barnabas, not only with radeon.. nvidia as well.. it's something in the kernel..
[09:27] <YankDownUnder> NVidia is and always will be tops for linux/Ubuntu...AMD/ATI are busy playing "catch up" in this game...not that they're spending alot of resource on it...
[09:27] <Barnabas> YankDownUnder, Intel isn't bad either
[09:27] <woutervddn> before my reinstall I was able to boot in 2 of my 4 kernel versions..
[09:28] <woutervddn> but now non of them work..
[09:28] <llutz_> Barnabas: intel would be nice if they offer passive-cooled  pci-e cards
[09:28]  * woutervddn thinks he should start a company producing decent linux laptops with decent support -_-'
[09:29] <Barnabas> woutervddn, how can you retain the old kernel versions if you have done a reinstall ?
[09:30] <Barnabas> woutervddn, in any case you should use the kernel version tested with your current distro release - if not all kinds of things might stop working
[09:30] <woutervddn> barnabas, I can't..
[09:30] <woutervddn> Barnabas, yes.. but it has to work then :p
[09:31] <woutervddn> ooh hell, I'll just back all data up an do a total swipe of my drive.. maybe it works :)
[09:31] <Barnabas> woutervddn, ok its an upgrade you ran :-)
[09:31] <weecol> who's where?
[09:32] <woutervddn> Barnabas, no.. euhm.. I had 10.10 but updated in april to 11.04. yesterday my theme went haywire and nautilus kept crashing, after reboot I still had the ugly theme in the login window but I couldn't log in..
[09:32] <woutervddn> so I updated from 11.04 to 11.04 with the live cd :)
[09:33] <woutervddn> now the theming works and I have everything (expect mouse) in safe mode, but I still don't manage to boot into a decent X session
[09:33] <Barnabas> woutervddn, from 11.04 to 11.04 is that even possible?
[09:34] <Barnabas> woutervddn, try to update all your packages then
[09:34] <Barnabas> sudo apt-get update
[09:34] <woutervddn> Barnabas, yeah, I didn't know it either, but it listed it :p
[09:35] <Barnabas> sudo aptitude full-upgrade
[09:35] <woutervddn> Barnabas, tried the update.. will  try full-upgrade
[09:35] <Tigerboy> woutervddn: i tried a few drivers on one machine at got the slightly older ati  driver to work... the latest kernels are borked for ati... should be fixed at some point
[09:35] <Barnabas> woutervddn, note that was using aptitude
[09:35] <woutervddn> ok
[09:36] <woutervddn> Tigerboy, yeah, I hope it's fixed fast :)
[09:36] <mediawork> hi
[09:36] <silare> What's the char limit for a deb package's name, version number, and the small description in Synaptic in the list?
[09:37] <Tigerboy> can't recall the number but i it ended in 4 and the newest driver ended in 6 so it was almost the exact same thing and it worked great.
[09:37] <woutervddn> anyhow worst case scenario ubuntu doesn't work anymore on my laptop and I'd either have to buy a new one or sweat it out a couple of months :)
[09:37] <Barnabas> woutervddn, I am pretty sure the oss version works, the closed source - that is another matter
[09:38] <Barnabas> especially from ati
[09:38] <wandoor> hai
[09:38] <Tigerboy> the ati 3d open source drivers are getting better all the time
[09:38] <woutervddn> ^indeed
[09:38] <wandoor> pls help
[09:38] <Amoz> silare, I don't think there's a hard limit, but 60 chars for the short description is what it says when you start packaging it
[09:38] <Amoz> silare, dunno about the others
[09:38] <woutervddn> the open driver was lagging on me sometimes
[09:39] <wandoor> how to download odin setup
[09:39] <Boothk> Hey, anybody here know mnuch about configuring Unity - without CCSM?
[09:39] <dybb> hi I keep getting error 105 101 & 109 when browsing the web can some one help me out please?
[09:39] <Slart> Boothk: ccsm is for configuring compiz, not unity
[09:39] <silare> Amoz: Ahh. Where'd you find this? I've been Googling for a few hours and I've had no helpful results. ._.;
[09:39] <Amoz> dybb, have you tried google it?
[09:39] <Amoz> dybb, ;)
[09:39] <dybb> yes
[09:39] <dybb> i did
[09:39] <Boothk> Slart: Are they not the same?
[09:40] <dybb> but i only get tat it was a DNS error
[09:40] <Amoz> silare, it's in the example package files, i.e if you run dh_make
[09:40] <dybb> i think
[09:40] <Slart> Boothk: I would say no... let me see if I can find a good explanation of what it is unity actually does
[09:41] <dybb> not sure right now
[09:41] <Boothk> Slart: hm... basically, I need to modify a script I wrote for Ubuntu Netbook Remix, that stopped users from modifying the available applications in the launcher
[09:42] <Slart> Boothk: ah.. there is a unity configuration plugin for ccsm that lets you change some unity stuff
[09:43] <Slart> Boothk: unity is the panel and application launcher.. compiz does the rendering and effects on the desktop
[09:44] <Slart> Boothk: not sure if this is helpful but it might be a start http://askubuntu.com/questions/29553/how-can-i-configure-unity
[09:44] <mediawork> Hi
[09:44] <mediawork> I have a usb stick that appears to have a damaged/erase mbr
[09:45] <mediawork> so the partitioning information is perhaps corrupt... abd/or the filesystem header.
[09:45] <mediawork> and/or
[09:45] <mediawork> is there any point in using ddrescue?
[09:45] <Boothk> slart: I'm afraid I saw that already.. my issue is that I'm trying to restrict editing of the launchers, via a shell script. Ideally, i'd like to know where the settings for unity/compiz are stored and lock the permissions on them
[09:45] <mediawork> ddrescue seems to be a glorified dd
[09:46] <dr_willis> if you wat to try to save the data..yes
[09:46] <mediawork> and only copies byte for byte everything from my drive
[09:46] <Slart> Boothk: mm, it seems all the stuff I've found so far is very.. user-oriented.. how to change background colors and such
[09:46] <prix> why can i print document in libreoffice with color?? the settings are corrects but it print black and white ? what can i do ?
[09:46] <silare> Amoz: Where are the example package files though? I just ran dk_make and it says "I cannot understand the directory name or you have an invalid directory name!"
[09:46] <mediawork> dr_willis: I seem to end up with the same thing as when I do dd.
[09:46] <diverdude> where do i find the system menu in unity?
[09:46] <Boothk> slart: Certainly is a bit difficult to script for..
[09:46] <zeloran> small question, where in /dev can i find the device for a hardware raid?
[09:47] <dr_willis> mediawork:  if you have hardware failures and other issues.. that would mean ddrescue is doig a good job
[09:47] <mediawork> I think I need some tool that might repair or rebuild the mbr  and/or filesystem headers
[09:47] <dr_willis> dd can fail badly at times
[09:47] <mediawork> dr_willis: no, I dont think the usb stick has errors.
[09:47] <Amoz> silare, it's for packaging new debian packages, you need to have a source directory and stuff. But if you wan't to know more about the limits, I guess you could read in the debian packaging manual
[09:48] <dr_willis> mediawork:  then fsck the filesystem perhaps
[09:48] <mediawork> dr_willis: ok, but basically this is nice... 	 I now have an exact byte for copy of my usb drive
[09:48] <silare> Amoz: So something like www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide ? (Sorry if I sound a bit stupid; I seriously didn't know what to Google this whole time...)
[09:48] <dr_willis> you normally image, the try to fix the image, for safest recovery
[09:48] <mediawork> dr_willis:  currently I only have /dev/sdb   and no  /dev/sdb1 2 3 ...
[09:49] <diverdude> where do i find the system menu in unity?
[09:49] <shomon> my ubuntu laptop has overheated, and when I turn it on now, (unless I boot from a disk) I get a mouse pointer in a blank screen which doesn't move. How can I diagnose that? Or can I even run a "diff" of some kind from the install cd?
[09:49] <llutz_> mediawork: try testdisk
[09:49] <mediawork> dr_willis:   isnt dd of the drive some sort of image?  ...
[09:49] <llutz_> !testdisk
[09:49] <dr_willis> its an image yes..
[09:49] <mediawork> dr_willis:  is it an image that I can inspect as a loop device?
[09:50] <dr_willis> image it to a file, use testdisk, and fsck on the file
[09:50] <mediawork> llutz_:  thanks
[09:50] <dr_willis> mediawork:  you got it
[09:50] <llutz_> !info testdisk
[09:50] <dr_willis> i rescued 1.5tb of data via ddrescue once
[09:51] <diverdude> where do i find the system menu in unity?
[09:51] <zilch_> hello, I want to put up a reverse proxy/load balancer for my https traffic at the same time don't want loose my original client's ip address, what would best serve the purpose ?
[09:51] <dr_willis> took over a week.....
[09:51] <shomon> is there a package that will compare your ubuntu install to an online image or to a disk - maybe to check for rootkits even
[09:51] <Algorith> when someone has locked the screen and you want to log in with your own account (but the switch user option in the gui has seemingly been deactivated), how do you do it without rebooting?
[09:51] <Amoz> silare, myabe you can find something useful here http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2011/04/msg01118.html
[09:51] <mediawork> dr_willis:  ok I c... by repeated tries on the faulty disk
[09:51] <dr_willis> mediawork:  yep.
[09:52] <mediawork> dr_willis:  ddrecovery is useful 4 sure
[09:52] <mediawork> ddrescue
[09:52] <dr_willis> mediawork:  ddrescue good for dvd backup rescues also
[09:52] <mediawork> dr_willis: good point... I'll remember that
[09:53] <jify> hi guys, i have a question, some of the icons on my panels mysteriously go missing everytime i restart my machine for no reason i can see, these are the trash and shutdown icons so far.
[09:53] <Slart> Boothk:  meh.. I give up.. this page was probably the best I found http://askubuntu.com/questions/36274/tips-and-tricks-for-unity   but it's still mostly about the regular user stuff.. not much info on the backend
[09:54] <Slart> Boothk: perhaps a mail to the unity developer mailing list might be worth it
[09:54] <silare> Amoz: Ooh, nice. That helps with the name/version a lot. And you mentioned the short description being 60 chars?
[09:55] <Amoz> silare, yeah the short description I'm quite sure about. It's recommended to be kept at maximum 60 chars
[09:55] <silare> Amoz: And then the long desc is just kinda' unbounded, right? o.o
[09:56] <Boothk> slart: Alright, thanks anyway
[09:56] <Free-man> Algorith has 3key salute been deactivated?
[09:57] <Amoz> silare, I guess it is. well, within reasonable limits
[09:57] <Amoz> just as the short one
[09:57] <Free-man> Algorith skip last; has ctrl-alt bkpc been deactivated?
[09:57] <zilch> I want to setup a reverse proxy/ load balancer for my https traffic, but would like to have/retain access to original client's IP address, is it possible ?
[09:58] <Free-man> zilch do not use anony proxy then; read proxy docs
[09:58] <shomon> you could ask on #httpd zilch - they might direct you to some other place.. I've heard of squid but there may be much better ones now...
[10:02] <zilch> shomon, is it on freenode ?
[10:02] <shomon> yes
[10:03] <Raenzenman> hi
[10:03]  * Raenzenman schreit ahhh
[10:03] <zilch> shomon, Free-man , oki, thanks !!
[10:06] <mediawork> im inspecting my usb-disk image using hexdump
[10:07] <mediawork> I can see soemthing like a line of ff ff ff ff ...
[10:07] <mediawork> followed by a *
[10:07] <mediawork> a line with only a *
[10:07] <mediawork> then followed by loads of data
[10:07] <Algorith> @Free-man: thanks, it works
[10:07] <mediawork> Im wondering what hexdump is saying with this line of only *
[10:08] <mediawork> actually... Im hoping I can figure out the start offset of my lost partition on this disk
[10:08] <Slart> mediawork: one or more lines that looks exactly like the last one
[10:09] <mediawork> Slart:  ok Ic.
[10:09] <Slart> mediawork: or better.. looks like the line above
[10:09] <mediawork> Slart: ok cool
[10:09] <mediawork> Slart:  so basically hexdump is telling me there are 2 or more ff ff ff ff lines
[10:09] <Slart> mediawork: yes
[10:09] <mediawork> Slart:  why would my partition start with ff ff ff ff lines?
[10:09] <mediawork> Slart:  is that normal... Im expecting to see the mbr there
[10:10] <mediawork> Slart:  but off course my mbr is damaged... I know that
[10:10] <Slart> mediawork: if you do a hexdump of an entire drive which you've zero'd out you'd get two lines.. one with zeros and then the *
[10:10] <mediawork> Slart:  cool... very nice to know
[10:10] <Slart> mediawork: I have no idea what a mbr looks like in hex.. never really looked at it
[10:10] <mediawork> Slart:  ok :) thanks..
[10:11] <mediawork> the first line that follows the ff lines is this one ...    0f34000 4ec4 92c5 9743 3f7e adfd b13e cbca c848
[10:12] <ragesh> can anyone help regarding fedora15???
[10:12] <mediawork> so I suppose I have a sh**tload of ff ff ff ff lines
[10:12] <Slart> mediawork: indeed.. lots and lots
[10:12] <mediawork> 0f340000 is my offset
[10:12] <mediawork> Slart: ehm... how many is that ?
[10:12] <Slart> ragesh: Fedora? as in the os?
[10:12] <dr_willis> ragesh:  some reason you are not asking i #fedora?
[10:12] <mediawork> Slart: ehm how many Bytes for example
[10:13] <Free-man> mediawork which fstype was it?
[10:13] <mediawork> Free-man:  Im not sure... but I would think it was NTFS... this is a 32GB us dongle
[10:14] <Free-man> bummer
[10:14] <Slart> mediawork: 255 066 112 bytes
[10:14] <mediawork> bought and set up within a year
[10:14] <ragesh> dr_willis : lots of online users her So my chances to get a right ans is more here
[10:14] <mediawork> Free-man:  well... maybe it was vfat...
[10:14] <Free-man> bummer still
[10:14] <mediawork> Free-man:  can I find out which one it was?
[10:14] <Slart> mediawork: so approx 243 MB
[10:14] <dr_willis> ragesh:  not really. since its offtopic for here
[10:14] <Free-man> mediawork fdisk -l device
[10:14] <Free-man> sda hda etc
[10:15] <mediawork> Free-man:  my mbr is all wiped out with ff ff s it seems.
[10:15] <blink> I accidentally pasted file replacing an existing one, how can I bring the old one? It got valuable information..
[10:15] <Free-man> mediawork try fdisk -l anyway
[10:15] <mediawork> Free-man: ok
[10:15] <Free-man> mediawork be root
[10:16] <ragesh> dr_willis: Ok. Thank you. I'm new to IRC so dont know much. Can u suggest a good channel where I can get help regarding fedora??
[10:16] <dr_willis> ragesh:  the fedora channel, and forums
[10:17] <mediawork> Free-man:   here is my output of fdisk -l  http://pastebin.com/duDTnF8U
[10:17] <ppurka> is there a way to make "udisks --mount <device>" work properly? I am consistently getting "Mount failed: Not authorized" messages. ck-list-sessions shows my user as active and the display
[10:17] <dr_willis> you havet even mentioed the actual fedora issue...
[10:17] <mediawork> Free-man:  can you see any useful info in there?
[10:17] <Kingsy> can someone help me install a few packages on ubuntu? I need various pear,php and mysql packages / extensions installed.. for example JpGraph the php graph library
[10:17] <Kingsy> can I use apt-get for these things?
[10:17] <Free-man> mediawork plenty; did the partition use the whole disk?
[10:18] <mediawork> Slart:  I suppose 243 MB at the beginning of a usb drive all ff ff ff.... is unusual...
[10:18] <mediawork> Free-man: yes
[10:18] <Free-man> mediawork better
[10:18] <mediawork> Free-man:  I partitioned and formatted it on linux
[10:18] <phper_> Hello. I am now using virtualbox + ubuntu 11.01
[10:18] <mediawork> Free-man:  I just dont remember if I used NTFS of VFAT
[10:18] <Free-man> dr_willis what's the name of the hd explorer recovery tool?
[10:18] <Slart> mediawork: yes, are you trying to recover what was on that drive? or you're just trying to get it to work again?
[10:18] <ThinkT510> phper_: you mean 11.04
[10:19] <silare> Amoz: Ah, makes sense then. Thanks a lot though; this ended like... 10 hours of Google failure.
[10:19] <dr_willis> parted/fixpast/gparted?
[10:19] <Anon753> hi guys
[10:19] <Free-man> ty
[10:19] <phper_> I input apt-get remove wine at virtuavox ubuntu 11.04 but I get error message:  E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[10:19] <dr_willis> fixpart
[10:19] <Slart> phper_: are you running synaptic or something else in the background?
[10:19] <Free-man> mediawork find & read about parted, fixpast, gparted and similar tools
[10:19] <mediawork> Slart: I want to recover what was on there, as much as is possible... acutally...  mostly PDF ,  word DOC.
[10:19] <phper_> Slart: I don't think so, how do I find out?
[10:19] <dr_willis> !fixapt | phper_
[10:19] <Free-man> mediawork this is gonna take time to do right; dont rush
[10:20] <mediawork> Free-man:  its an adventure... I have already made dd and ddrescue backups of the disk
[10:20] <mediawork> Free-man: I will work on those
[10:20] <Free-man> ok gl
[10:20] <Slart> mediawork: ah.. there are some tools around for that.. testdisk is one.. but there are a couple of others that are easier to use.. can't remember the names of those at the moment.. something like "image restore" , I think
[10:21] <ragesh> dr_willis: Thank you man!!
[10:21] <Slart> phper_: that's the kind of error message you get when there is something else installing in the background.. or even just a window running synaptic or some other apt process
[10:22] <phper_> Slart: thanks, now it is working (apt-get remove wine)
[10:22] <mediawork> Slart: Free-man: dr_willis:  I found this page... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecover
[10:22] <Free-man> ok
[10:22] <phper_> y
[10:22] <mediawork> Slart: Free-man: dr_willis: seems to list a lot of different tools
[10:22] <ppurka> mediawork: i wasnt around to listen to your problem. but from above messages, it looks like you deleted some files. if the partition was ext3/4 then try extundelete
[10:22] <Free-man> mediawork k
[10:22] <Free-man> ppurka msos fs
[10:22] <ppurka> ah ok
[10:22] <Slart> mediawork: foremost is another on I recognize.. from that page
[10:22] <Kingsy> can someone help me with my issue?
[10:23] <Free-man> what prob
[10:23] <mediawork> ppurka:   well... what happened is that some problem pc of my dads friend seems to have damaged the partition table of my dads usb
[10:23] <mediawork> ppurka:  the usb seems to have 245 MB of simmple ff ff ff ff ....  at the beginning.
[10:23] <Free-man> mediawork idear:
[10:23] <Slart> mediawork: ah.. magic rescue is the one I was talking about.. it was called image rescue in the beginning (since it was written to restore images from memory cards.. then they expanded it to restore all kinds of files)
[10:23] <naomi> hi i vae a problem with x settings
[10:23] <mediawork> ppurka:  fdisk doesnt give any partition info
[10:23] <ppurka> mediawork: then it is probably testdisk which can restore it
[10:24] <Free-man> mediawork 1. dd image is only a few gig large?
[10:24] <Guest35740> i messed up with ppa repositories and synaptic upgrades
[10:24] <Guest35740> and then
[10:24] <Slart> mediawork: or.. wait.. Photorec was the one... shesh.. I need more coffee
[10:24] <mediawork> Free-man:   the dd image is 32GB large. just like the disk
[10:24] <Kingsy> Free-man - I need to install a few extensions etc on ubuntu, and I am not sure how to do it, for example the php extension jpgraph
[10:24] <Guest35740> the display is set up to low resolution and only the part of screen is visible ad desktop rest of
[10:24] <Kingsy> also some pear and mysql extensions
[10:24] <mediawork> Free-man: its a large usb drive 32Gigs.
[10:24] <ppurka> mediawork: TestDisk can   Fix partition table, recover deleted partition (on its homepage: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk )
[10:24] <Free-man> mediawork 2. copy image to new file;  fdisk -l  on that;...
[10:25] <naomi__> ok how to restore previous xserver/screen config?
[10:25] <mediawork> Free-man:  exactly same result as dd on the sdb device
[10:25] <Free-man> mediawork 3. then do a real fdisk call on that new file for a test run, then try to mount it to /mnt
[10:25] <naomi__> p-l-e-a-s-e?
[10:25] <mediawork> Free-man:   mount -o loop kinda thing?
[10:25] <Free-man> yes
[10:26] <mediawork> Free-man:  I need to specify an offset right... maybe the offset all the way to the end of the ff ff ff junk?
[10:26] <Slart> naomi__: I don't think you can.. unless you used some kind of editor that makes backups for you
[10:26] <mediawork> Free-man: let me show you my hexdump of the beginning of this disk.
[10:26] <naomi__> there are no way to fix ubuntu ?
[10:27] <ppurka> anyone has any idea about the udisks --mount thing? how can I make it "authorized" :)
[10:27] <naomi__> the system is working i am using it now
[10:27] <Kartagis> has anyone used linkchecker? I need to http://www.example.com/dir, not http://www.example.com
[10:27] <Free-man> mediawork on the new file, you'll be writing a new part record, at 0, then W, then test mount;  the table is part of the bootloader, so dont worry about it. that's a different problem
[10:27] <Free-man> mediawork no dont show.
[10:27] <Slart> naomi__: I have no idea what kind of problem you're experiencing.. you only asked if you could restore a previous configuration
[10:28] <Milp_main> im looking for a super lightweight graphical browser, any recommendations?
[10:28] <shomon> dillo
[10:28] <shomon> or w3m with the graphics turned on... not sure how you do that these days
[10:28] <Firmin> hey
[10:28] <Milp_main> ok thank you shomon
[10:29] <Firmin> Im on 11.04 with no panels nothing just terminal. Any ideas
[10:29] <Milp_main> now i also need a textbased browser, which is best?
[10:29] <Free-man> elinks
[10:29] <Free-man> any really
[10:29] <Milp_main> ok thanks, what about lynx?
[10:29] <Free-man> sure
[10:29] <Free-man> links too
[10:29] <siegen> ey guys some real time irc channel?
[10:29] <Milp_main> dunno, i found those weird
[10:29] <Free-man> tuff )
[10:29] <siegen> i mean kernel real time o so
[10:30] <nothingspecial> naomi, you can completely reset it with sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg, reset it that is as if you'd just installed. Not previous settings you understand
[10:30] <Firmin> on 11.04  unity with no panels are there any direct commands to switch to ubuntu classic ?
[10:30] <Milp_main> oh dillo doesnt support javascript and all that stuff?
[10:30] <mediawork> Free-man:   ehm.. sorry I dont understand what I'll be doing..  should I be trying to mount the image of the disk as it is?
[10:30] <Free-man> duno
[10:30] <Free-man> mediawork to test that it's a good image
[10:31] <mediawork> Free-man:  ok so I'll do mount -o loop -t auto myimage /mnt/disk
[10:31] <Free-man> ok
[10:31] <Milp_main> ok uuh correction: im looking for a super lightweight graphical browser, that supports all the stuff like javascript and so on
[10:31] <Firmin> on 11.04  unity with no panels are there any direct commands to switch to ubuntu classic ?
[10:32] <dr_willis> !ifo midori
[10:32] <ThinkT510> Milp_main: that is a bit of a contradiction, but i suppose midori is more of what you're looking for
[10:32] <dr_willis> !info midori
[10:32] <Milp_main> thank you
[10:33] <shomon> does anyone know how to start diagnosing an ubuntu installation of 10.10, which won't start up?
[10:33] <Milp_main> the thing is that im looking for a really lightweight browser that is actually useful on common modern sites, like facebook. Because the normal smartphone browsers are really useless and things like chrome or firefox are way too heavy
[10:33] <shomon> it only displays a prompt in a blank screen.
[10:33] <Free-man> Milp_main opera?
[10:33] <dr_willis> shomon:  you mea a bash prompt?
[10:33] <Kingsy> Free-man: can you help ? by any chance?
[10:34] <shomon> dr_willis, no, a mouse prompt which doesn't move
[10:34] <Free-man> Kingsy if i knew i would have responded
[10:34] <Milp_main> Free-man uh i don't think opera will be that much faster if firefox or even chrome already takes 5 minutes to start
[10:34] <Free-man> try it
[10:34] <dr_willis> shomon:  you mean a mouse pointer? on a blank x desktop?
[10:34] <Milp_main> will do
[10:34] <Kingsy> np
[10:35] <mediawork> Free-man: http://pastebin.com/jC68FSLN
[10:35] <mediawork> Free-man:  I tried to mount with auto... vfat and ntfs..
[10:35] <Kingsy> Free-man: I just cant find any of the packages I want to install.. for example --> pdo_sqlite ?
[10:35] <Firmin> Guys my unity compltely failed no panels or anything. Any ideas ?
[10:35] <Free-man> Kingsy i'm not unbuntu user; i just hep with general linux prob, not dist-specific
[10:35] <alaing> can someone tell me which users is used to access my files from my web server /var/www
[10:36] <Kingsy> ah ok np
[10:36] <alaing> what/who is www-data?
[10:36] <Free-man> mediawork ok, now copy to new file, fdisk it, define wholedisk partition for it, write, mount.
[10:36] <Firmin> Guys my unity compltely failed no panels or anything. Any ideas ?
[10:36] <dori922> hey bros! :D
[10:36] <Kingsy> can someone tell me how to go about installing php / sql extensions on ubuntu ?
[10:37] <Free-man> Firmin switch to console and type?
[10:37] <Free-man> mediawork make sure of dismount
[10:37] <shomon> dr_willis, sorry had a phone call! Yes I see a mouse pointer on a blank black x desktop, yes, and none of the reset or 3 finger salutes work
[10:37] <mediawork> Free-man:  thanks... ok working on it
[10:37] <Free-man> mediawork ok
[10:38] <dr_willis> shomon:  try alt-ctrl-f1
[10:38] <shomon> dr_willis, basically anything i do to it will have to be via a boot disk
[10:38] <shomon> doesn't work
[10:38] <dori922> im trying to install XEN on UEC natty 32bit and im hitting a snag when it comes to "sudo make tools" seems a common problem going off google but i cant find a solution :( im going off the Ubuntu wiki lucid guide right now!
[10:38] <shomon> as in, it does nothing. Basically, it's frozen
[10:38] <Firmin> Guys my unity compltely failed no panels or anything. Any ideas ?
[10:38] <Free-man> dr_willis sysrq for shomon
[10:39] <shomon> turn on magic sysreq?
[10:39] <GwarTheTrolle> anyone here know how to imagemagic? I need help with compositing. :( I can make it do one file easily, but I litteraly have over 9000 (9636 to be exact) images to do this to, and I don't think * is working. For example, "composite Overlay.png Background.jpg Background.jpg" works, but  "composite Overlay.png *.jpg *.jpg" doesn't
[10:39] <Free-man> Firmin how about booting to a console instead of into gui?
[10:39] <dr_willis> shomon:  at the grub menu try adding the 'text' option after quiet splash, to get to the console, or the recovery mode
[10:39] <shomon> okay.
[10:39] <remoteCTRL> do you know of a sophtware that i can read and write sms with under ubuntu?
[10:40] <shomon> is there a help page on using the recovery or console?
[10:40] <Milp_main> what was that command to kill all processes with vnc in their name?
[10:40] <shomon> remoteCTRL, I once had a gnome thing that did that to my nokia phone
[10:40] <shomon> but maybe it depends on your phone...
[10:41] <ThinkT510> !find sms | remoteCTRL
[10:41] <Firmin> Free-man   Unity is dead. when I try to reset it says it's not installed aparently and I have no panels
[10:41] <dr_willis> vcserver has a -kill option
[10:41] <Free-man> Firmin stop booting into gui then.
[10:41] <Milp_main> yes but i mean in general
[10:41] <Free-man> Firmin boot into text mode
[10:41] <nothingspecial> GwarTheTrolle: for j in *.jpg, do commands "$j" "$j"; done
[10:41] <dr_willis> killall
[10:41] <Firmin> Free-man how /
[10:41] <remoteCTRL> shomon: ThinkT510: nice, thanks guys!
[10:41] <ThinkT510> np
[10:42] <naomi_> nick naomi___
[10:42] <mediawork> Free-man:  when I tell fdisk to add new partition... it tells me I need to set the cylinder size in expert mode.
[10:42] <Milp_main> no, there was a command where you could kill all processes that had * in it
[10:42] <mediawork> Free-man: not sure what this number should be
[10:42] <Milp_main> for example vnc
[10:42] <mediawork> Free-man: is it ok I use cfdisk?*
[10:42] <Free-man> mediawork sure
[10:42] <naomi_> is there a way to restore defaults when repairing existing installation with ubuntu-install-DVD?
[10:43] <mediawork> Free-man:  am I doing this wrong... is it ok I run fdisk on the dd copy of my disk...
[10:43] <mediawork> Free-man:   I dont know how to set it up as a loop device
[10:44] <mediawork> Free-man: if that is necessary
[10:44] <Free-man> mediawork yes; they usuall accept a file to work on
[10:44] <Free-man> mediawork not while with fdisking
[10:44] <mediawork> Free-man:  cfdisk doesnt like it
[10:44] <wildbat> naomi_: reinstall = default ;p
[10:44] <Free-man> mediawork ok; see if sfdisk will do
[10:44] <Kingsy> has anyone installed JPGraph before?
[10:44] <naomi_> i have important data locked on that machine,
[10:44] <mediawork> Free-man: ok so Ill just run fdisk on the file.
[10:44] <Free-man> mediawork sfdisk
[10:44] <naomi_> if ubuntu has to be reliable system
[10:44] <mediawork> Free-man:  just fdisk asks me to set the cylinders
[10:44] <mediawork> sfdisk
[10:44] <mediawork>  ok
[10:45] <naomi_> it should allow for fixing things broken by synaptic
[10:45] <Free-man> mediawork sfdisk read manpage
[10:45] <naomi_> ...sigh
[10:45] <sauljatta> friends
[10:46] <mediawork> Free-man:  is there a chance that sfdisk or fdisk might do something bad to my computers filesystem... I mean if I give it a cylinder number larger than the file itself.
[10:46] <nothingspecial> naomi_: use the dvd to copy your data
[10:46] <Free-man> mediawork since you're only naming a "plain" file, no.
[10:46] <ThinkT510> naomi_: can't you mount your partition and copy what you need from the livecd?
[10:47] <Kartagis> has anyone used linkchecker? I need to check http://www.example.com/dir, not http://www.example.com
[10:47] <naomi_> i can extract my data without problems, but this will take me long hours to restore all configs:P
[10:47] <Free-man> mediawork plain as in NOT a device
[10:47] <naomi_> anyway, it seems that i need it
[10:48] <adddii> f|shy: how to execute c prog in vi
[10:48] <mediawork> Free-man: ok in that case... fdisk... gave me a range of cylinder numbers from 1 - something big
[10:48] <ThinkT510> naomi_: wasn't your original problem with your screen settings?
[10:48] <mediawork> Free-man:  I should be safe to just set it to that big number
[10:48] <Milp_main> there is a vncserver running on :0 and i cant kill it with vncserver -kill :0, it just doesn't find it
[10:48] <Free-man> mediawork ok, so on the copy, try it; if it fails to mount, make new copy and retry
[10:49] <Free-man> Milp_main get PID of server, kill $PID
[10:49] <aquaboy11> error: unknown filesystem  grub rescue
[10:49] <Milp_main> Free-man how do i get the PID?
[10:49] <aquaboy11> what do i need to do
[10:49] <Free-man> pidof vncserver
[10:49] <Milp_main> it doesnt show one
[10:49] <Free-man> Milp_main be root
[10:49] <ThinkT510> aquaboy11: read some grub documentation
[10:49] <ThinkT510> !grub | aquaboy11
[10:49] <Milp_main> Free-man i am
[10:49] <Free-man> k
[10:50] <Free-man> Milp_main ps fax | less; scan by eye
[10:50] <Milp_main> nothing
[10:50] <Free-man> then not running
[10:50] <Milp_main> it was started by a script, if that matters
[10:50] <Free-man> nop
[10:50] <Milp_main> but im connected and it responds
[10:51] <Free-man> Milp_main not local then
[10:51] <arudil> hello there. http://www.pic-upload.de/view-10811804/strange.png.html any ideas why my font in the menubar looks that ugly?
[10:51] <arudil> some way to reset it?
[10:51] <dr_willis> vncserver on :0 may be the gnome vino server
[10:51] <Free-man> Milp_main ^
[10:51] <coz_> arudil,  looks like a bold font
[10:52] <dr_willis> 0 normmallt means the visible display
[10:52] <Milp_main> dr_willis oh ok, will look for that
[10:52] <Milp_main> it doesnt have a visible display, just vnc and ssh
[10:52] <dr_willis> :1+ are hidden ines
[10:52] <arudil> i just updated from 10.10 to 11.04 and kept my ~home;
[10:52] <Free-man> yay
[10:52] <Milp_main> ooh i found it going through another time
[10:52] <Milp_main> its xtightvnc
[10:52] <Free-man> k
[10:53] <coz_> arudil,  you might to open gnome-appearance-properties   ,, the Fonts  tab and see if any are set to bold
[10:53] <dr_willis> could be its resparning also
[10:53] <arudil> new users don't have this glitch
[10:53] <Milp_main> how do i close that list though?
[10:53] <Free-man> q
[10:53] <mediawork> Free-man: ehm... fdisk says the disk is 1048576 cylinders
[10:53] <coz_> arudil,  here I have Ubuntu bold for title font
[10:53] <Milp_main> ah thanks
[10:53] <Free-man> mediawork before or after adjustment?
[10:53] <Free-man> yw
[10:53] <mediawork> Free-man: however, it doesnt let me set the last cylinder to 1048576
[10:53] <Bluetegu> Hi, I just got my new Lenovo T420. I plan to install Ubuntu. I can't figure out why the Ubuntu certification page suggest installing 11.04 32 bit and not 64 bit. Is there some 64 bit compatibility issue?
[10:53] <mediawork> Free-man: only 267349
[10:53] <arudil> indeed. there's a bold font
[10:54] <Free-man> mediawork what's that?
[10:54] <mediawork> Free-man:  maybe i should just go with it
[10:54] <Free-man> ok
[10:54] <Free-man> mediawork you're working on copy file?
[10:54] <dr_willis> certificcation page?
[10:54] <ThinkT510> Bluetegu: install the 64 bit version
[10:54] <arudil> coz_, but my new profile, which does not have this glitch, does also have a bold font there
[10:54] <mediawork> Free-man: yes
[10:55] <Free-man> k
[10:55] <mediawork> Free-man: copy
[10:55] <Free-man> mediawork brb 3m
[10:55] <dr_willis> 32 bit suggestion is so totalbeginners dont get confused
[10:55] <Bluetegu> ThinkT510, thanks. I'll do that. I saw several posts on 64 bit installs.
[10:55] <coz_> arudil,  hmm.. so you created a new user and it is fine...yes?
[10:56] <ThinkT510> Bluetegu: works great for me, good choice on your laptop btw
[10:56] <arudil> yes. the new user works fine. but of course I don't want to use a new user *grin*
[10:56] <Bluetegu> ThinkT510, I got the i7 one. Looks great.
[10:56] <coz_> arudil,  well I believe it is possible to reset gnome to defaults...this will of course reset everything
[10:57] <coz_> arudil,    sudo rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity   ...then restart X
[10:57] <arudil> are the unity settings stored in the gnome-settings?
[10:57] <arudil> folders?
[10:57] <alaing> how can i check what character set my server is using?
[10:57] <dr_willis> unity --reset   for just unity
[10:58] <aquaboy11>   since i reinstalled ubuntu windows wont start anymore, when i start windows i get a blinking -
[10:58] <arudil> oh; i didn't mention i'm using unity.
[10:58] <z0d> hello
[10:58] <dr_willis> compiz has some command to use
[10:59] <dr_willis> webupd8 blog site has a post on resetting ut
[10:59] <aquaboy11> i aust used startuprepair from windows now i get grub rescue
[11:00] <Bluetegu> ThinkT510, Did you have to tweak anything or was the installation smooth?
[11:00] <ThinkT510> Bluetegu: smooth as silk
[11:00] <Free-man> mediawork
[11:00] <ThinkT510> Bluetegu: just needed to install the nvidia driver, which it offered to do first boot
[11:01] <aquaboy11> and my windows partitionletter changed from c to e
[11:01] <Bluetegu> ThinkT510, Great. How much did you set for swap partition?
[11:02] <ThinkT510> Bluetegu: i don't use a swap partition, cos i don't use suspend/hibernate, the installer does warn you if you don't set swap
[11:02] <aquaboy11> could someone help me with it?
[11:02] <Free-man> mediawork
[11:02] <coz_> arudil,   not sure a unity --reset is going to fix this neither a compiz --replace & disown,,, you might have to reset gnome for that user  ,, something got messed up
[11:02] <mediawork> Free-man: yes
[11:02] <Free-man> mediawork back
[11:02] <mediawork> Free-man:  I have found something out
[11:03] <anli__>  I upgraded the dist with do-dist-upgrade, now, the login screen is just black
[11:03] <mediawork> Free-man:   fdisk and sfdisk dont like my dd backup file
[11:03] <Kre10s_> some applications are killing X xfview and friends ... were would i find the logs for them?
[11:03] <Legacy> i need a screenshot utilitie for ubuntu can anyone help?
[11:03] <anli__> Is this some kind of joke? :)
[11:03] <ThinkT510> Bluetegu: i think you need to use about 1.5 times the size of ram for swap
[11:03] <mediawork> Free-man:  they complain of not getting disk geometry
[11:03] <Free-man> mediawork ok; pondering...
[11:03] <mediawork> Free-man:  that includes correct cylinder numbers head and stuff
[11:03] <mediawork> Free-man:  I do get them correctly when running fdisk on my /dev/sdb
[11:03] <aquaboy11> how do i change my drive letter without windows?
[11:03] <Free-man> mediawork ok; so you have two copies of stick, right?
[11:03] <Bluetegu> ThinkT510, Ok. Many thanks. I hope to start and finish installation today.
[11:03] <Olotila> How do I check if this Ubuntuinstallation is using swap_
[11:04] <Olotila> How do I check if this Ubuntuinstallation is using swap_?
[11:04] <mediawork> Free-man: right
[11:04] <Olotila> I have 6GB RAM
[11:04] <dr_willis> Olotila:  free   command
[11:04] <Olotila> and 2GB swap partition, which is now empty
[11:04] <aquaboy11> how do i change my drive letter without windows?
[11:04] <Legacy> i need a screenshot utilitie for ubuntu can anyone help?
[11:04] <anli__> aquaboy11: you already asked
[11:05] <Free-man> mediawork ok; how about starting from scratch: fdisk on device; mkfs; mount -o loop; copy files out to ~/x; cp ~/x to new device-part?
[11:05] <mediawork> Free-man:  I can invoce fdisk with the correct cylinder head and sector numbers
[11:05] <Free-man> mediawork if you can mount -o loop ?
[11:05] <dr_willis> aquaboy11:  what letter to what?
[11:05] <ThinkT510> !find screenshot | Legacy
[11:05] <aquaboy11> e to c
[11:05] <Milp_main> wtf now i can't start anything in fluxbox, whatever i try to launch, it always prints a "fluxbox: double free or corruption (fasttop)" to the logfile and does nothing else
[11:05] <mediawork> Free-man:   mount -o loop fails at the moment... but there is no partition table
[11:06] <dr_willis> aquaboy11:  why are you doing this
[11:06] <aquaboy11> because ubuntu changed my win driveletter
[11:06] <ultrixx> Legacy: there should be a screenshot utility already installed in the applications menu
[11:06] <Free-man> mediawork ok; dd can skip leading blocks, od.1 can help you determine blocksize to skip
[11:06] <aquaboy11> and windows doesnt start anymore
[11:06] <dr_willis> aquaboy11:  i doubt it. those letters are based on partition location
[11:06] <dori922> im trying to install XEN on UEC natty 32bit and im hitting a snag when it comes to "sudo make tools" seems a common problem going off google but i cant find a solution :( im going off the Ubuntu wiki lucid guide right now!
[11:07] <dr_willis> first primary is c. second is d.
[11:07] <aquaboy11>   since i reinstalled ubuntu windows wont start anymore, when i start windows i get a blinking -
[11:07] <mediawork> Free-man:  all those ff ff ff lines ,  240 MB of them are leading blocks?
[11:07] <aquaboy11> i aust used startuprepair from windows now i get grub rescue
[11:07] <aquaboy11> just*
[11:07] <Free-man> mediawork those are bytes.  were there more than 1 part on the device?
[11:07] <anli__> Is it common for upgraders to 11.04 to get a black login screen?
[11:08] <mediawork> Free-man: as far as I know, no... but I guess you never know with usb sticks... Ive heard they have write only parts
[11:08] <Acidphase> maybe , his hard disk devices are out of order in BIOS now after Ubuntu marked it's drive as the active boot (mbr)
[11:08] <mediawork> read only parts
[11:08] <Free-man> mediawork they have to be compat at the fs level
[11:08] <Free-man> mediawork they have to be compat at the fstype level
[11:08] <Acidphase> and being windows does some screwy stuff like that (I've seen myself)
[11:09] <BluesKaj> hey all
[11:09] <aquaboy11> wait now windows doesnt have a letter at all
[11:09] <Acidphase> ...
[11:09] <mediawork> Free-man:  mount has an offset option
[11:09] <Free-man> mediawork ok try that
[11:09] <mediawork> Free-man:  ok
[11:10] <Acidphase> aquaboy11:: are you looking at your windows media thru dolphin or something?
[11:10] <Acidphase> media = Hard disk
[11:10] <aquaboy11> no with partition wizard
[11:11] <Acidphase> so your in windows now
[11:11] <aquaboy11> no
[11:11] <alch3mist> hello
[11:11] <alch3mist> i was wondering if someone could whisper some help to a linux n00b
[11:11] <aquaboy11> on a startupdisc with partition wizard
[11:12] <Acidphase> aquaboy11:: you didn't erase your windows install did you?
[11:12] <yoyoned> alch3mist: ask your question,
[11:12] <ThinkT510> alch3mist: you need to tell us your problem before we can help
[11:12] <aquaboy11> no of course not
[11:12] <aquaboy11> i need windows
[11:12] <Acidphase> aquaboy11:: don't take offense see it all the time had to ask =P
[11:13] <aquaboy11> i only wanted to delete ubuntu
[11:13] <aquaboy11> then i got grub rescue
[11:13] <Acidphase> what were using wubi or something ?
[11:13] <aquaboy11> installed ubuntu again
[11:13] <anli__> If I only could know which package that is broken, because I can ssh to the computer, although I only get darkness from the screen (upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04)
[11:13] <aquaboy11> now windows doesnt load
[11:14] <aquaboy11> no i used a cd to instatt
[11:14] <alch3mist> in my attempts to install linux on my desktop, my computer, after installation goes straight to windows
[11:14] <aquaboy11> install*
[11:14] <alch3mist> i installed it the same way i did on my laptop
[11:14] <alch3mist> but it skips the grub loader
[11:14] <Acidphase> and you can see your windows partition from Linux yet you can't boot into it
[11:14] <aquaboy11> yes
[11:15] <rb_> hi all, anyone here able to answer a question about live usb for me?
[11:15] <aquaboy11> i can start it in grub but then i get a flashing -
[11:15] <Acidphase> I'd try update-grub
[11:15] <Acidphase> have you?
[11:15] <aquaboy11> yep
[11:16] <aquaboy11> dint work
[11:16] <anli__> Maybe I should start crying, would make me feel better...
[11:16] <Acidphase> guessing os-probe isn't finding the os
[11:16] <yoyoned> alch3mist: did you select windows as the default whn you installed ubuntu
[11:16] <aquaboy11> i spend 7 hours yesterday to start my windows again
[11:17] <BluesKaj> !who
[11:17] <Acidphase> 7 hours?
[11:17] <aquaboy11> yes
[11:17] <Acidphase> what the hell happened
[11:17] <Acidphase> I can install like 4 Gentoo's in that time
[11:17] <Acidphase> lol
[11:17] <anli_> hm, my network is flaky
[11:18] <Acidphase> anli_:: have you tried head and shoulders =P
[11:18] <aquaboy11> i deleted the ubuntu partitions becausb i didnt need it anymore
[11:18] <anli_> haha
[11:18] <anli_> finally someone that replies on me :)
[11:19] <Acidphase> aquaboy11::  what version of windows is it btw ?
[11:19] <aquaboy11> windows7
[11:19] <Acidphase> thats really odd Grub2 should have no problems there
[11:20] <aquaboy11> after i reinstalledeubuntu i get a flashing bar when i try windows
[11:20] <Acidphase> are you 100% sure OS is there =P
[11:20] <aquaboy11> yes
[11:20] <aquaboy11> brb
[11:20] <Acidphase> okay
[11:21] <Acidphase> me too actually
[11:21] <ThinkT510> aquaboy11: is the windows partition set with a boot flag?
[11:21]  * anli_ is a boot flag
[11:21] <robin0800> aquaboy11, have you a windows cd/dvd
[11:22] <rb_> I have 11.04 server on a USB (using FAT for the FS so i can get access from Windows), when i boot into the live usb i need rw access to the USB stick (mounted on /cdrom/), it's a customized live usb, so in the chroot what do i need to change to make it mount the usb as rw not ro?
[11:22] <Free-man> rb_ are you comfortable editing etc/fstab?
[11:22] <ThinkT510> anli_: i don't do upgrades otherwise i might be able to help you, i prefer fresh installs
[11:22] <rb_> Free-man: yup
[11:22] <anli_> I also do that unless I have to do a lot of installing afterwards
[11:23] <Free-man> rb_ add two-char rw to end of line for the particular device in fstab
[11:23] <Free-man> rb_ oops wrong
[11:23] <anli_> I cant understand why there is an option to upgrade if I dont get an upgraded system ;)
[11:23] <rb_> Free-mam would that be in the chroot env or actually in the live
[11:23] <Free-man> rb_ change "defaults" to "defaults,rw" for the particular device in fstab
[11:23] <anli_> ThinkT510: thanks for replying however :)
[11:23] <Free-man> rb_ be safe, do both :)
[11:24] <Free-man> rb_ but mounting a dev rw is not really the right thing to do
[11:24] <rb_> Free-man: whats the right way to do it?
[11:24] <anli_> Is it gdm thats broken if I cannot even get a login screen?
[11:24] <Free-man> rb_ i hate complicated...
[11:24] <magikid> anli_, it would be nice if Ubuntu had a rolling release branch
[11:25] <rb_> lol :)
[11:25] <anli_> yeah, easy is better
[11:25] <Free-man> rb_ is dev a boot-root thingy?
[11:25] <Free-man> rb_ when is dev mounted on /cdrom? in boot sequence
[11:26] <rb_> Free-man: not sure, the usb has squashfs on it which has the main os files on it etc
[11:26] <derek> im having problems with 11.04 since having compiz can anyone help?
[11:26] <rb_> Free-man: I haven't set it up with persistance yet, if i did that would that allow changes to /etc/fstab to persist
[11:26] <Olotila> How do I change keyboard layout to scandinavic?
[11:26] <anli_> derek: you also have a black screen? :)
[11:27] <derek> i seem to have lost my launcher bar, and menu toolbar on the top of the screen
[11:27] <Free-man> rb_ sorry, im not smart enough to properly answer.
[11:28] <derek> no black screen tho
[11:28] <anli_> ah
[11:28] <rb_> Free-man: no worries, thanks for the pointers i'll see how i get on tinkering with etc fstab, i suspect it gets mounted as part of the boot sequence before that
[11:28] <mediawork> Free-man:  I calculated those ff ff ff -s at the beginning of the disk are 255065968
[11:28] <mediawork> Free-man: bytes
[11:29] <Free-man> rb_ in that case, if with grub, edit commandline and add two-char `rw' to end of line
[11:29] <DrVOTProductions> Hello.
[11:29] <derek> i tried to uninstall it thru software center but that seemed to make things worse
[11:29] <Free-man> mediawork ok
[11:29] <mediawork> Free-man: moutning with this offset doesnt give anything
[11:29] <Acidphase> derek should be able to just right click and add a new panel worst case
[11:29] <aquaboy11> im back
[11:29] <Free-man> ok
[11:29] <mediawork> Free-man: just wrong fs type
[11:29] <rb_> Free-man: yes that makes sense, it's not using grub, its a syslinux thing, but same logic should work!
[11:29] <Free-man> rb_ ok
[11:29] <YankDownUnder> How to lose a linux client: try to install a Huawei K3771 (new, no driver, no updated usb-modeswitch.conf) on Ubuntu. Lovely that.
[11:29] <Acidphase> derek:: are you in KDE or gnome ?
[11:29] <Free-man> mediawork learn about partition recovery.
[11:30] <mediawork> Free-man:   Im wondering if it should work anyway to mount an fs,  with an offset probably some way into the filesystem??
[11:30] <aquaboy11> i have a windows recovery disc
[11:30] <derek> gnome i think
[11:30] <Free-man> mediawork perhaps
[11:30] <mediawork> I could try it on my root linux partition
[11:30] <aquaboy11> and where do i see if it has a bootflag?
[11:30] <Free-man> mediawork be careful with live data!!!
[11:31] <ThinkT510> aquaboy11: open gparted
[11:31] <Acidphase> derek:: go head and try to install compiz again, or even compiz-fusion , there is another app called compiz-icon which a system tray icon for compiz allows you change the windows manager and decorators on the fly
[11:31] <aquaboy11> ok
[11:31] <derek> im quite new to linux, so this may not be as hard to fix as it seems to me
[11:31] <anli_> hm, when I did apt-get upgrade in my blackened ubuntu, it started to fetch a lot of packages
[11:31] <anli_> I cross my hands
[11:31] <mediawork> Free-man:   can I set my disk image file as an actual device under /dev ?
[11:31] <derek> i tried to get them, but once they are installed i cant open them
[11:31] <mediawork> Free-man:  this would make things easier I think
[11:32] <dori922> im trying to install XEN on UEC natty 32bit and im hitting a snag when it comes to "sudo make tools" seems a common problem going off google but i cant find a solution :( im going off the Ubuntu wiki lucid guide right now!#
[11:32] <Acidphase> derek:: that's fine I didn't wake upone day and said to myself wow I know linux now
[11:32] <Acidphase> it's a constant learning curve
[11:32] <Free-man> mediawork nop; device nodes are not files per se
[11:32] <dori922> getting an Error 2
[11:32] <anli__> Sorry for discon
[11:32] <mediawork> Free-man:  I mean something like /dev/loop
[11:32] <Free-man> mediawork losetup
[11:33] <Acidphase> derek what are you trying to install specifically ?
[11:33] <aquaboy11> im installing grub again
[11:33] <Acidphase> aquaboy11:: not a bad idea
[11:33] <derek> acidphase: i used software center to install them, then found a shortcut key to get into my apps, but i couldnt open them from there, is there another way?
[11:34] <aquaboy11> i have grub rescue so i need to
[11:34] <Acidphase> you can use the terminal
[11:34] <derek> i was just playing with some of the functions of the program, and lost my toolbars and launchers and cant get them back
[11:34] <Acidphase> derek see if ctrl_alt+t loads your console
[11:35] <Acidphase> oops type ctrl+alt+t =P
[11:36] <Acidphase> derek once you get into the console you can use: sudo apt-get install <package name>
[11:36] <aquaboy11> how do i delete grub completely?
[11:36] <perlsyntax> autostick_split_windows
[11:36] <perlsyntax> sorry
[11:36] <karlw> How do you resume Gnome when jumping out to TTY? (using ctrl+alt+F2)
[11:36] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[11:37] <SunTzu> mediawork back from the netdead
[11:37] <rb_> Free-man: no luck with that, as passing rw to the kernel means the squashfs is mount rw, need to find out where in the startup it is mounting the usb to /cdrom
[11:37] <derek> acidphase: that didnt work, i dont even have headers to minimize my windows anymore  so this might take some time for me to find
[11:37] <SunTzu> rb_ i unponged; might have missed prior lines; start over
[11:37] <karlw> Anyone?
[11:37] <mediawork> SunTzu: ehm what is netdead
[11:37] <karlw> im stuck in textmode.. =(
[11:38] <mediawork> I am getting... loop: can't get info on device daddsk1: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[11:38] <mediawork> from losetup
[11:38] <SunTzu> mediawork oops; other nick; ok. splitsville
[11:38] <YankDownUnder> karlw, Meaning?
[11:38] <rb_> SunTzu: I have 11.04 server on a USB (using FAT for the FS so i can get access from Windows), when i boot into the live usb i need rw access to the USB stick (mounted on /cdrom/), it's a customized live usb, so in the chroot what do i need to change to make it mount the usb as rw not ro?
[11:38] <aquaboy11> i want to delete grub
[11:38] <DistroJockey> karlw: usually Alt+F7
[11:38] <karlw> How do you resume Gnome when jumping out to TTY? (using ctrl+alt+F2)
[11:38] <Acidphase> derek change to different tty, ctrl+alt+F1 to get back to X (where you are now) ctrl+alt+F7
[11:38] <SunTzu> rb_ too far bck :)
[11:38] <karlw> Yank: I wannt get back to gnome from TTY
[11:38] <BluesKaj> karlw, ctrl,alt,f7 or 8 or 9
[11:38] <YankDownUnder> karlw, CTRL+ALT+F7
[11:38] <SunTzu> rb_ i mean from split
[11:38] <karlw> --> DistroJockey
[11:39] <rb_> SunTzu: sorry, :) we've tried passing rw to the kernel from the bootloader (syslinux)
[11:39] <SunTzu> rb_ right, tht didnt go?
[11:39] <rb_> SunTzu: nah, because the root fs is the squashfs on the USB, not the usb drive itself
[11:39] <SunTzu> ok
[11:39] <gordboy> rb_: use another usb for storage is the quick and easy answer
[11:40] <SunTzu> rb_ i havent played with this stuff yet myself
[11:40] <karlw> could someone please google for "resume gnome from tty"
[11:40] <rb_> gordboy: can't do that in this instance i'm afraid
[11:40] <karlw> ...for the key-command
[11:40] <SunTzu> karlw right or left arrow to switch tty
[11:40] <rb_> SunTzu: no worries, i'll keep hacking about until i get something that works
[11:40] <gordboy> karlw: you've had several answers already
[11:40] <SunTzu> rb_ ok; write a blog on results
[11:40] <rb_> SunTzu: :)
[11:41] <Acidphase> karlw: just /etc/init.d/xdm stop then /etc/init.d/xdm start (sometimes restart works but I find that way is less buggy)
[11:41] <gordboy> xdm ?
[11:41] <magikid> karlw: you could always just reboot
[11:41] <SunTzu> dm == disply manager
[11:41] <SunTzu> for x11, kdm, xdm, gdm
[11:42] <SunTzu> Acidphase restart == stop, start
[11:42] <BluesKaj> karlw, sudo service gdm stop or start
[11:42] <gordboy> SunTzu: i know what xdm is. and regular ubuntu doesn't use it
[11:42] <SunTzu> k
[11:42] <Acidphase> like I said found it to be less buggy that way don't ask me why
[11:42] <Acidphase> lol
[11:43] <gordboy> trying to run stuff that isn't even on the system is never going to work
[11:43] <gordboy> bye guys
[11:43] <magikid> Anyone know of some program to tile windows?
[11:43] <coz_> magikid,   compiz
[11:43] <SunTzu> magikid there are tiling wm
[11:44] <magikid> coz_: thanks
[11:44] <coz_> magikid,  make sure you have compizconfig-settings-manager installed  ,, opend that   as ccsm  and enable either or both the grid and tile plugins
[11:44] <yoyoned> magikid: KDE has tiling
[11:45] <SunTzu> mediawork brb
[11:45] <Acidphase> gordboy:: I was thinking his /etc/conf.d/xdm might be set to DISPLAYMANAGER=gdm
[11:45] <lotuspsychje> howto clear recent documents in terminal?
[11:45] <magikid> SunTzu: This is my production machine so I don't want to play around with its innards that much.
[11:45] <magikid> SunTzu: thanks though
[11:45] <magikid> yoyoned: thanks
[11:45] <aquaboy11> there is a bootflag at system reserved (sda2)
[11:46] <coz_> magikid,   here is a video    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQVkY6zMxCg
[11:46] <magikid> coz_: sweet, I didn't realize that compiz had tiling
[11:47] <ThinkT510> aquaboy11: sounds like a factory restore partition, can you take a screenshot of gparted for me?
[11:47] <coz_> magikid,  you tube is your friend :) also  gotbletu  <, search for his videos
[11:47] <aquaboy11> yes
[11:48] <aquaboy11> my recovery is in sda1
[11:49] <SunTzu> magikid k
[11:49] <SunTzu> mediawork bak

[11:50] <aquaboy11_> file:///home/ubuntu/Desktop/Screenshot.png
[11:51] <derek> Acidphase: i tried to install thru terminal, worked, but i still cant open it to use it, just want to get back to defualt if theres another way?
[11:51] <ThinkT510> !screenshot | aquaboy11
[11:51] <alex--> aquaboy11: use alt + printscreen
[11:52] <alex--> aquaboy11 when I go to that link, it's pointing to my desktop, because that's my home dir
[11:52] <aquaboy11_> brb
[11:53] <Acidphase> derek you mean where you were
[11:54] <Acidphase> derek: CTRL+ALT+F7
[11:54] <Lala_Chersi> which audio driver ubuntu 10.04 uses "ALSA" or pulse audio
[11:55] <derek> acidphase: after terminal finished i tried to run under applications, can i run it thru terminal?
[11:55] <Acidphase> derek you need a X system (windows manager)
[11:55] <DistroJockey> derek: Did you press Alt+F7 like I suggested?
[11:55] <Cedara> I have a problem installing a new nvidia graphics card.
[11:56] <derek> acidpase: ctrl+alt+f7 brings me from terminal mack to here, but it wouldnt do anything else
[11:56] <pindropper> I am trying to install php 5.2 on natty. by default apt installs 5.3. how do i install an older version?
[11:56] <Acidphase> you might have to reload the windows manager
[11:56] <Acidphase> if you don't feel like doing it by command reboot :)
[11:57] <derek> acidphase: the same way as compiz in terminal?
[11:57] <aquaboy11_> im back
[11:57] <derek> distrojockey: alt+f7 didnt work for me
[11:58] <Acidphase> derek sort of just a few different commands to restart your windows manager
[11:58] <Kartagis> pindropper: http://www.nickveenhof.be/blog/reverting-or-downgrade-php-53-52-ubuntu-lucid-lynx-1004
[11:58] <SunTzu> derek alt f1?
[11:58] <Kartagis> pindropper: replace as needed
[11:58] <SunTzu> derek from gui or text?
[11:58] <aetas> alex--, hey, sorry, was away
[11:58] <aquaboy11_> http://imagebin.org/164766
[11:58] <pindropper> Kartagis: thanks!
[11:58] <aquaboy11_> http://imagebin.org/164766
[11:58] <aquaboy11_> sda1 is my recovery
[11:58] <Acidphase> he just reinstalled compiZ and stuff he just needs to restart X
[11:59] <DistroJockey> derek: ctrl+alt+F* is only needed to get out of X11, Alt+F7 should get you back
[11:59] <aquaboy11_> sda2 is system reserverd
[11:59] <Acidphase> he is back
[11:59] <Acidphase> thats how he's chatting to us
[11:59] <aquaboy11_> sda3 is the one with the windows directory
[11:59] <aquaboy11_> sda4 is for my steamgames
[11:59] <DistroJockey> Acidphase: I know this :)
[11:59] <SunTzu> Acidphase alt-arrow too
[11:59] <aquaboy11_> i mean sda 5
[11:59] <Acidphase> =P
[11:59] <ThinkT510> aquaboy11: looks like you should set sda3 with the boot flag
[12:00] <derek> acidphase: ok, how do i restart windows manager? ill give it a shot
[12:00] <aquaboy11_> in system reserved are differewnt boot files
[12:00] <Lala_Chersi> which audio driver ubuntu 10.04 uses "ALSA" or pulse audio
[12:00] <Kartagis> pindropper: np
[12:00] <Acidphase> I got yelled at for my last suggestion how to (but I'm in Gentoo things are somewhat different)
[12:00] <Kartagis> !scim
[12:01] <aquaboy11_> what are those bootfiles in systemreserved?
[12:01] <tew_> is ther any ody familar with greenstone in linux?
[12:01] <Acidphase> I have Ubuntu on my other box but it's currently being used be someone =P
[12:01] <Acidphase> by*
[12:01] <ThinkT510> aquaboy11: no idea, i only have 1 windows partition which i manually setup myself
[12:01] <SunTzu> mediawork afk
[12:01] <derek> i just dont want to have to install ubuntu again just for this
[12:02] <Cedara> Problem with installing new graphic card: GeForce GT 520 in Ubuntu 10.04 - failed to load the kernel module and running nvidia-xconfig as root doesn't help. Ideas?
[12:02] <Acidphase> derek that's unlikely
[12:02] <derek> besides its good command line practice which i havent really used until now
[12:03] <Acidphase> Linux is very unsimiliar to windows in that sense at worst case you can re-install gnome/kide what ever your using before the whole OS
[12:04] <derek> well thats some good news
[12:04] <pindropper> Kartagis: follow up question: The link assumes I have already installed php5 . I have a fresh machine with nothing installed. Would the process be the same? I mean is there something like apt-get install php5.2 ? I am sorry to ask again, but this is all very new to me.
[12:04] <aquaboy11_> how do i install grub from a ubuntu cd
[12:04] <DistroJockey> aquaboy11: You were removing Ubuntu right?
[12:05] <aquaboy11_> yes but it is installed again
[12:05] <DistroJockey> sorry aquaboy11_ ^
[12:05] <Kartagis> pindropper: then skip the steps which assume you have php 5.3
[12:05] <aquaboy11_> after i used windows startuprepair i got grub rescue
[12:05] <aquaboy11_> so i cant load anything
[12:05] <pindropper> Kartagis: ok. thanks.
[12:05] <aquaboy11_> except the cds
[12:05] <derek> acidphase: what commands do i need to install windows manager if they arent like compiz?
[12:05] <Kartagis> np again
[12:05] <linuxR> hi all, I have a very strange problem: I upgraded my computer with an additional gigabyte of ram. when booting the ubuntu install cd, everything works as expected. After the installation is finished and when booting from hard disk, everything is painfully slow (loading grub boot menu takes aber 15 seconds..). this however is only the case when I have both memory modules inserted, when I remove one, it runs normal again. ideas, anyone?
[12:06] <DistroJockey> aquaboy11_: You just wanted Windows 7 back with no Ubuntu?
[12:06] <aquaboy11_> yes
[12:06] <Bio-Nic> test
[12:06] <aquaboy11_> i just want windows 7
[12:06] <Acidphase> derek I would just reboot for now to simplify thins and see if re-installing compiz did the trick
[12:06] <Acidphase> we're not going anywhere =P
[12:06] <aquaboy11_> its still on my hard drive
[12:06] <DistroJockey> aquaboy11_: You can boot from the Windows 7 DVD and fix the MBR
[12:06] <aquaboy11_> the recovery cd?
[12:07] <xushuf> yes
[12:07] <Acidphase> said that a while ago =P
[12:07] <DistroJockey> aquaboy11_: depends on the recovery CD you have
[12:07] <Acidphase> true
[12:07] <aquaboy11_> a recovery cd that my pc made
[12:07] <aquaboy11_> i didnt get a installation disc from win7
[12:07] <aquaboy11_> with my laptop
[12:07] <DistroJockey> aquaboy11_: That may wipe the whole drive
[12:08] <Acidphase> ya was worried about that earlier
[12:08] <Cedara> where do I find the system's kernel log for the additional error messages except the one I got on booting?
[12:08] <DistroJockey> aquaboy11_: which is probably not what you want
[12:08] <xushuf> maybe you can do that with the help of some partition tools
[12:08] <Acidphase> Cedara you meen like dmesg ?
[12:08] <aquaboy11_> i have startuprepair and cmd o nthat recovery disk
[12:08] <aquaboy11_> and some other stuff that deletes everything
[12:08] <Cedara> Acidphase what I got was ""nvidia: Failed to load the nvidia kernel module. Please check your system's kernel log for additional error messages. Failed to load module "nvidia" (module-specific error, 0). No drivers available."
[12:09] <DistroJockey> aquaboy11_: Here is something similar, but not exactly waht you are looking at doing:  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ee851681.aspx
[12:09] <Cedara> Acidphase running nvidia-xconfig as root didn't help - got error message
[12:09] <coz_> Cedara,  did you reboot after installing the driver?
[12:09] <Cedara> yes
[12:09] <Acidphase> hmm sounds like you don't have it installed
[12:09] <Cedara> yeah
[12:09] <Cedara> I think so
[12:09] <coz_> Cedara,  ok and you installed the driver  via  jockey-gtk  ...yes?
[12:10] <Cedara> no, just put the new card in and hoped the old one would work too
[12:10] <coz_> Cedara,  no
[12:10] <Cedara> but now I'm running in a low graphics mode
[12:10] <Acidphase> thats why
[12:10] <Cedara> okay
[12:10] <Cedara> what do I do
[12:10] <Cedara> Ubuntu 10.04 here
[12:10] <coz_> Cedara,   open a terminal    jockey-gtk
[12:10] <aquaboy11_> ok im gonna try it now tith my recovery disc
[12:10] <coz_> Cedara,   check to see which driver is currently installed
[12:10] <Cedara> jas, coz_
[12:10] <coz_> Cedara,   you want the   nvidia_current
[12:11] <DistroJockey> aquaboy11_: Best of luck. I hope you have a backup just incase.
[12:11] <coz_> Cedara,  however,, what I would do is uninstall what is listed there,, reboot,,, then go back into jockey-gtk  and reinstall the nvidia_current driver,,, reboot and test
[12:11] <Cedara> it's searching, coz_
[12:11] <Cedara> okay, my result is in German
[12:11] <Acidphase> derek:: how did you make out?
[12:11] <Cedara> coz_ it says version current
[12:11] <Cedara> active and in use
[12:12] <coz_> Cedara,  ok uninstall that   and reboot
[12:12] <coz_> Cedara,  then reinstall it and reboot
[12:12] <derek> acidphase: i rebooted, nothing changed
[12:12] <Acidphase> sigh
[12:12] <Cedara> how do I uninstall that manually, coz_?
[12:12] <Cedara> never did that before
[12:12] <Cedara> there's a remove button at the result
[12:12] <coz_> Cedara,  there should be a button on the bottom right for that
[12:12] <Cedara> okay will do
[12:12] <Cedara> after reboot?
[12:12] <Acidphase> derek:: let me see if I have things straight with your issue, bsaically you have a blank desktop ?
[12:12] <derek> acidphase: would having more than one username make this not work right?
[12:12] <Cedara> coz_ what will happen after reboot?
[12:13] <coz_> Cedara,  then reinstall the driver and reboot again
[12:13] <Cedara> okay
[12:13] <Cedara> see you in a few coz_
[12:13] <coz_> Cedara,   after the first reboot you should still be in low graphics mode
[12:13] <coz_> Cedara,  then reinstall driver  and reboot again
[12:13] <Cedara> okay
[12:13] <coz_> Cedara,  which card did you replace it with?
[12:13] <coz_> Cedara,  version
[12:13] <Acidphase> derek:: not unless the user you're using isn't part of some group for something specific now allowing you to run something
[12:13] <Cedara> I replaced a Geforce 8600 with a GT 520
[12:14] <derek> well my background is there and 3 icons, the launcher bar is gone, and the nav bar at the top of the screen
[12:14] <coz_> Cedara, and you also plugged in the power plug to it ....yes?
[12:14] <bindi> coz_: it doesnt need pci-e power
[12:14] <coz_> ah
[12:14] <Cedara> huh?
[12:14] <coz_> Cedara,  never mind
[12:14] <Cedara> lol
[12:15] <Acidphase> derek:: if you right click on the desktop you see any option to add a panel ?
[12:15] <Cedara> coz_ how do install it afterwards?
[12:15] <Faris> Hi. I'm experiencing high CPU usage with no process causing that and no heating (my CPU usually heats up like crazy when it hits the top) . That happens both on Windows and Linux, even after a fresh install :(
[12:15] <coz_> Cedara,  same way  open jockey-gtk   click the nvidia current driver and click install
[12:15] <Cedara> coz_ will the system offer it to me, like when I first installed it?
[12:15] <coz_> Cedara,  or "activate"
[12:15] <coz_> Cedara,  just open jockey-gtk and do it from there
[12:15] <derek> acidphase: i get a create launcher, folder and document option
[12:16] <DistroJockey> derek, Acidphase: How about trying-  metacity --replace
[12:16] <ElCapitanMarklar> hey guys on my ubunutu vm i have forgotten my passphrase for my keyring. anyway to reset it?
[12:16] <aquaboy11> hm weird now my cd asks for install or memory diagnostic
[12:16] <Cedara> ok
[12:16] <Cedara> see you soon,hopefully
[12:16] <derek> distrojockey: metacity?
[12:16] <Acidphase> didn't know Ubuntu had that option good to know :)
[12:17] <DistroJockey> derek: It's the Window Manager of Gnome
[12:17] <coz_> Cedara, I think it will be fine
[12:17]  * Cedara knocks on wood
[12:17] <rly> How can I see whether the Gnome keyring has been unlocked or not?
[12:17] <coz_> if using metacity --replace  that's fine from alt+F2  ,,however if doing it from terminal    metacity --replace & disown
[12:17] <rly> Or whether the password I have entered is correct?
[12:18] <DistroJockey> coz_:  Good point :)
[12:18] <derek> acidphase, distrojockey: the compiz and windows manager icons never changed into actual icons, they stayed in the autorun icon if that helps any?
[12:18] <Faris> Hi. I'm experiencing high CPU usage with no process causing that and no heating (my CPU usually heats up like crazy when it hits the top) . That happens both on Windows and Linux, even after a fresh install :(
[12:19] <aquaboy11> wtf now my windows drive letter changed to f
[12:19] <Acidphase> well I agree with DJ if you have poor gui might as well set it back to gnomes until you find the cause
[12:19] <Acidphase> go back to your console and type:  metacity --replace
[12:19] <linuxR> hi all, I have a very strange problem: I upgraded my computer with an additional gigabyte of ram. when booting the ubuntu install cd, everything works as expected. After the installation is finished and when booting from hard disk, everything is painfully slow (loading grub boot menu takes aber 15 seconds..). this however is only the case when I have both memory modules inserted, when I remove one, it runs normal again. ideas, anyone?
[12:19] <z0d> hi acicula
[12:20] <acicula> hey z0d
[12:20] <z0d> acicula: I have the Xorg.log from yesterday (fglrx issue with 11.04, if you remember)
[12:20] <DistroJockey> derek: Maybe this will help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Metacity
[12:20] <YankDownUnder> linuxR, Um...are both modules the exact same?
[12:20] <coz_> linuxR,  ^^
[12:20] <z0d> acicula: http://paste.lisp.org/display/123502
[12:20] <Acidphase> DistroJockey:: is there a hot key for console in gnome by default in Ubuntu ?
[12:21] <Cedara> okay, reboot worked
[12:21] <Acidphase> :)
[12:21] <coz_> linuxR,  also if one is larger than the other I would put the larger module in the slot closer to the cpu ,, most motherboards that is slot 1
[12:21] <coz_> Cedara,  excellent
[12:21] <z0d> acicula: 2 things I noticed 1. the fglrx kernel module isn't loaded.  modprobe doesn't find it. 2. /proc/ati is non-existentn
[12:21] <z0d> I guess the fglrx kernel module would create it
[12:21] <linuxR> YankDownUnder, as far as I can see yes...When booting from cdrom, it works flawlessly
[12:21] <Cedara> now: jockey-gtk as you said, coz_
[12:21] <DistroJockey> Acidphase: to get to the TTY's it's Ctrl+Alt+F1 - F6
[12:21] <Acidphase> yes I know that
[12:21] <YankDownUnder> linuxR, Put the new one closer to the CPU, try again...eh?
[12:21] <coz_> Cedara,  yep  then click to highlight the nvidia_current driver and click th e Activate or install button
[12:21] <linuxR> only booting from hard disk seems to be a problem in combination with the memory, which makes not much sense to me
[12:22] <Acidphase> I ment just to load console
[12:22] <Acidphase> in gnsome
[12:22] <aetas> linuxR, is this a dual boot or straight ubuntu?
[12:22] <linuxR> YankDownUnder, yep will try that...hold on
[12:22] <Cedara> coz_ it now says no proprietary drivers are used
[12:22] <coz_> Cedara,  out of curiosity  open a terminal    lspci | grep -i vga
[12:22] <YankDownUnder> Acidphase, ctrl-alt-f1
[12:22] <coz_> Cedara,  right
[12:22] <Acidphase> so he wouldn't have to switch from X to tty1
[12:22] <linuxR> aetas, just ubuntu
[12:22] <DistroJockey> Acidphase: not that I know of. But Compiz has shortcut keys too
[12:22] <acicula> z0d, yeah that is what i see too
[12:22] <coz_> Cedara,   this is where you click to highlight the nvidia_current driver
[12:22] <Cedara> there is no activate button, it's greyed
[12:22] <Cedara> nothing in there
[12:22] <aetas> linuxR, ah ok...would be interested to know if it was just hardware or not, that would save time
[12:22] <coz_> Cedara,  there are no drivers in the list?
[12:22] <aquaboy11> can someone copy everything to pastebin from http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ee851681.aspx
[12:22] <Cedara> no, coz_
[12:23] <Acidphase> DistroJockey:: KDE does , ctrl+alt+t
[12:23] <coz_> Cedara,  yikes
[12:23] <coz_> Cedara,  hold on
[12:23] <Acidphase> which is why I asked =P
[12:23] <aquaboy11> plz
[12:23] <Cedara> well, it didn't yell on booting
[12:23] <acicula> z0d, can you insmod the driver by hand?
[12:23] <ThinkT510> aquaboy11: why?
[12:23] <DistroJockey> Acidphase: Alt+F2 = a Run application box
[12:23] <Acidphase> got ya
[12:23] <z0d> acicula: have you check my Xorg.0.log?
[12:24] <coz_> Cedara,  try sudo apt-get install nvidia-current  nvidia-common
[12:24] <aquaboy11> cant load the site on my psp and now im in recoverymenu
[12:24] <coz_> Cedara,   then reboot again
[12:24] <magikid> aquaboy11: http://pastebin.com/iT2vfFwv
[12:24] <acicula> z0d, yes
[12:24] <Acidphase> DistroJockey:: been a while since I've been in gnome and on Ubuntu , currently in Gentoo and on KDE
[12:24] <aquaboy11> ty
[12:24] <acicula> wh00ps, z0d yes i have
[12:24]  * Acidphase works over to his other box loads Ubuntu =P
[12:24] <dhruvasagar> Hi, can someone recommend some good reminder application ?
[12:24] <linuxR> YankDownUnder, I switched the modules, same result
[12:24] <Cedara> coz_ there is a space between current and nvidia-common?
[12:25] <coz_> Cedara,  yes
[12:25] <coz_> Cedara,   so the command is
[12:25] <YankDownUnder> linuxR, Ok...here's a question for ya - how large is your swap partition?
[12:25] <coz_> Cedara,   sudo apt-get install nvidia-current  nvidia-common
[12:25] <z0d> acicula: insmod: error inserting '/lib/modules/2.6.38-10-generic/updates/dkms/fglrx.ko': -1 Invalid module format
[12:25] <magikid> dhruvasagar: Evolution has nice integration in gnome for reminders
[12:25] <Cedara> ok, coz_ just checking for safety
[12:25] <linuxR> YankDownUnder, 2gb iirc
[12:25] <YankDownUnder> linuxR, Ok...and how much RAM do you have?
[12:25] <dhruvasagar> magikid: using evolution just for reminders has to be an overkill
[12:25] <DistroJockey> Acidphase: I hear ya :) Mostly Debian and Gnome myself but as my name suggests, I dabble ;)
[12:25] <coz_> Cedara,  if installing from terminal apt-get  a space between packages does the trick for multiple package install
[12:26] <linuxR> but that should hardly be a problem...at grub stage, there is no kernel yet and no swap partition either
[12:26] <Acidphase> DistroJockey:: lol
[12:26] <linuxR> YankDownUnder, 2gb (added 1)
[12:26] <YankDownUnder> linuxR, Have you tried doing a "memory test" from the grub boot?
[12:26] <coz_> Cedara,  if it wants to install extra dependencies  or packages  say  "Y"
[12:26] <magikid> dhruvasagar: undoubtedly but it comes installed by default.
[12:26] <Lala_Chersi> hey cant get my sound working with tvtime
[12:26] <Cedara> yep, got asked
[12:26] <Cedara> doing so, cuz_
[12:26] <Cedara> doing so, coz_
[12:26] <coz_> Cedara,  ok and remember to reboot ,,,again
[12:26] <Acidphase> there loaded the other box up in Ubuntu this will make my life eaiser now
[12:27] <Acidphase> lol
[12:27] <Cedara> will do, coz_
[12:27] <dhruvasagar> magikid: but can I easily create reminders / events without launching evolution ?
[12:27] <z0d> acicula: I have no idea why it says Invalid module format though
[12:27] <Cedara> okay, it's done, I shall reboot, coz_
[12:27] <linuxR> YankDownUnder, yes, no errors reported
[12:27] <solars> is it somehow possible to install a newer version of a package (git) than in the repos?
[12:27] <acicula> z0d, what does file /path/to/flgrx.ko say
[12:27] <YankDownUnder> linuxR, Right oh - well, then this is rather strange. Are you using the PAE kernel?
[12:27] <iceroot> solars: sure but its not a good idea
[12:28] <linuxR> YankDownUnder, what is a PAE kernel?
[12:28] <z0d> /lib/modules/2.6.38-10-generic/updates/dkms/fglrx.ko: ELF 32-bit LSB relocatable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped
[12:28] <iceroot> !pae | linuxR
[12:28] <magikid> dhruvasagar: might check out http://reminder-ng.sourceforge.net/
[12:29] <Cedara> back
[12:29] <dhruvasagar> magikid: I just did :)
[12:29] <coz_> linuxR,  it is a  Phisical Address Extension     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension
[12:29] <YankDownUnder> linuxR, It's meant: physical address extention => extends the addressings for memory => I use those kernels cuz they're faster for me - and I'm only using 2gb of RAM...so it could also be a vice-versa situation - find out what kernel you're using firstly...
[12:29] <linuxR> oh...no I don't think so...but again...the problem also exists at grub stage...when no kernel is loaded yet
[12:29] <Cedara> coz_ no yelling on reboot ;)
[12:29] <linuxR> my grub also runs painfully slow
[12:29] <coz_> Cedara,  ok  now check in jockey-gtk if that driver is listed now
[12:29] <DistroJockey> magikid: Nice one with the site conversion to pastebin :)
[12:29] <linuxR> when booting from harddisk
[12:30] <z0d> acicula: seems fine
[12:30] <Cedara> checking, coz_
[12:30] <magikid> DistroJockey: np
[12:30] <dhruvasagar> magikid: amazingly, Tomboy has a reminder plugin, I think that should be a simpler alternative
[12:30] <coz_> Cedara,  either way you are probably good to go,,, are you using ubuntu 11.04  and Unity or classic gnome?
[12:30] <Cedara> coz_ it's listed now, but not activated
[12:30] <acicula> z0d, yup
[12:30] <YankDownUnder> linuxR, ...and it's safe to assume you've dug through yer BIOS to make sure all the settings are correct and optimised and all that jazz, eh?
[12:30] <coz_> Cedara,   ok activate it
[12:30] <sdwef> Hello, $ sudo /etc/init.d/dansguardian start gives me following error - DansGuardian has not been configured! Please edit /etc/dansguardian/dansguardian.conf manually then rerun this script. What edition in required in the file? I've followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DansGuardian
[12:31] <Cedara> coz_ using ubuntu 10.04
[12:31] <coz_> Cedara,  ah ok
[12:31] <nudb2> hi - could you tell me what "kill -HUP" does?
[12:31] <Cedara> activating
[12:31] <coz_> Cedara,  I have to break for a short period to time here  be back,, after activating it you Must  reboot,,yet  again
[12:31] <linuxR> YankDownUnder, I have reset everything to bios default values
[12:31] <Cedara> yes, it tells me to, coz_
[12:31] <Cedara> okay, coz_
[12:31] <allu2> Hello, how do i move launchers in unity?
[12:32] <linuxR> there is a bios upgrade available though...which requires me to install windows in order to apply it :(
[12:32] <magikid> dhruvasagar: awesome, one less thing to install
[12:32] <dhruvasagar> magikid: indeed
[12:32] <acicula> z0d, im thinking something went wrong with dkms prepping the driver but cant really find a solution yet
[12:33] <linuxR> could it be that ubuntu has some specially compiled grub and stuff that accesses system memory in a way other than usual?
[12:33] <linuxR> (not that I would have ever heard about something like that)
[12:33] <Cedara> okay, this sucks
[12:33] <Cedara> apparently this didn't fly
[12:33] <dyd> i've installed mdadm and set up 2 80gb hds to be in raid 1, then my OS hd broke, and now i would like to recover previous raid situation restoring data i had in the raid disk, is it possible?
[12:34] <allu2> or do i really have to remove every launcher and add them as i want them to be organized?
[12:34] <Cedara> coz_ that didn't fly, same problem as before
[12:34] <z0d> acicula: anyway I don't think Xorg should segfault
[12:34] <dli> dyd, yes, by the nature of raid1
[12:34]  * Cedara sighs
[12:35] <z0d> acicula: I'll look into post-inst and pre-inst scripts
[12:35] <acicula> z0d, it be nicer if it realizes the kernel driver is not ther
[12:35] <linuxR> I'm really going nuts..how hard can it be to put additional gb of mem into my box :(
[12:35] <tblambda> After installed ubuntu natty, my Lenovo G475 netbook hangs when LAN cable unplugged. Same problem as https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/154523. Any solutions? Thanks!
[12:35] <acicula> !find flgrx
[12:35] <dli> linuxR, it's up to the mobo
[12:36] <acicula> !find fglrx
[12:36] <Cedara> Same problem as before, did what coz_ told me to: deinstalled the nvidia driver, reinstalled the proprietary one and it doesn't work when I activate it, I run in a low graphic mode
[12:36] <dli> linuxR, my old thinkpad only takes 3GB, while I can put a total of 4GB in
[12:36] <linuxR> dli, I find it hard to find an explanation for why it runs when booting from cd, does not run when booting from disk
[12:36] <dhruvasagar> magikid: I like this - http://alarm-clock.pseudoberries.com/, if you're interested
[12:36] <acicula> Z00la, try installing via apt-get install, then you can easily see if the dkms process finishes building the driver properly
[12:36] <dli> linuxR, did you do a memtest?
[12:36] <Cedara> is this one of the few cards that just doesn't work right under ubuntu 10.04?
[12:36] <linuxR> dli, yes, no errors
[12:37] <dli> linuxR, like no error for hours?
[12:37] <aquaboy11> i still get grub unknown filesystem error

[12:38] <Pici> sdwef: Did you comment the line that says UNCONFIGURED - Please remove this line after configuration ?
[12:38] <dli> linuxR, let it run a couple of hours to be sure. still explain what went wrong?
[12:39] <DistroJockey> sdwef: Did you remove the following?:   #UNCONFIGURED - Please remove this line after configuration
[12:39] <dli> linuxR, 'doesn't work' is a vague statement, please explain in detail about how, error messages, etc.
[12:40] <DistroJockey> Pici: beat me :)
[12:40] <sdwef> Pici: DistroJockey : My bad, I missed that line. Thanks a lot :-)
[12:40] <nudb2> I'm a sudoer on two servers and would like to compare the contents of every file in a direcotry /thisdirectory and subdirectories -- like an intensitve "diff".  I want to know if there is any difference in any of the files, or if there is a file that exists in one server but not the other.  Actually, one is an earlier snapshot made into a server, whereas the other continued... so, there should be absolutely no difference, I just want to make sure
[12:40] <nudb2> .  How would I do this?
[12:40] <linuxR> dli, when booting from the hard drive (freshly installed ubuntu 11.04), it runs extremely slow (about 20secs to load grub bootloader)
[12:40] <Rafal_0> hey
[12:40] <DistroJockey> sdwef: np as long as it helped :)
[12:40] <sdwef> Now, I've to find it failed starting DansGaurdian though
[12:40] <sdwef> why*
[12:41] <dli> linuxR, booting sequence problem?
[12:41] <Slart> nudb2: you could do a recursive md5sum, or crc32
[12:41] <dli> linuxR, set hard drive as the first device to boot
[12:41] <linuxR> dli, I did
[12:42] <dli> linuxR, does it run smoothly after grub loaded?
[12:42] <Pici> nudb2: dirdiff might be applicable too
[12:42] <linuxR> but its grub itself that runs so slow...when I press "e" to edit a grub line, this takes additional 20 seconds to open the edit screen
[12:42] <aquaboy11> fuuuuuuuuuuu
[12:42] <linuxR> dli, no, operating system runs equally slow
[12:42] <Cedara> me too, aquaboy11
[12:42] <aquaboy11> error: unknown filesystem
[12:43] <Rafal_0> bye
[12:43] <aquaboy11> grub rescue
[12:43] <aquaboy11> >
[12:43] <aquaboy11>
[12:43] <Slart> nudb2: there's also a utility that's called cfv.. its in the repos
[12:43] <aquaboy11> >
[12:43] <Slart> !info cfv | nudb2
[12:43] <aquaboy11>
[12:43] <FloodBot1> aquaboy11: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:43] <dli> linuxR, how slow? elaborate
[12:43] <pharos> /part
[12:44] <linuxR> dli, so slow you can't work with it...some minutes to boot (insteal of 20 seconds), 20 seconds to start a terminal, 10 more seconds to get a prompt..
[12:44] <linuxR> when I remove one memory module (doesnt matter which one) it runs perfectly fast
[12:45] <sdwef> Pici: After commenting the line you suggested, it gave no previous errors but  - * Starting DansGuardian dansguardian    [fail] . Any thought?
[12:45] <aquaboy11> how do i change a drive letter in ubuntu
[12:45] <dli> linuxR, but the speed seems to be normal when running memtest?
[12:45] <DistroJockey> aquaboy11: I think this page is what you are needing to do:  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392
[12:45] <Pici> sdwef: Does dansguardian have a logfile that you can look at, it would be in /var/log/ somewhere.
[12:45] <linuxR> dli, that is a good question..don't know how fast memtest usually is..but it appeared normal to me
[12:46] <dli> linuxR, memtest prints out memory speed, cache speed, etc.
[12:46] <linuxR> oh okay..then maybe I should do a little comparison
[12:47] <linuxR> I wonder if there are different methods that linux/grub can access system memory
[12:47] <linuxR> will also try to install a different OS and see if that one runs okay
[12:47] <DistroJockey> aquaboy11: If you are not in the actual Windows that you have installed the drive letter you see is irrelevant.
[12:47] <dli> linuxR, also, try to rearrange order of memory modules, mismatching speed, or gap in address space?
[12:47] <sdwef> Pici: Yes, /var/log/dansguardian/access.log. But this log file is empty (0B)
[12:48] <linuxR> dli, I already physically switched memory modules, with no change in result
[12:48] <aquaboy11> my recovery disc says windows7 found on f:/
[12:48] <linuxR> also tried two entirely other modules, same behaviour
[12:49] <Autodidactite> ITM
[12:49] <nudb2>  so... I'm in server1 in /thedirectory .... what would I do to get rsync to get into server2 with my credentials, and to recursively copmare /thedirectory on that server with what's in the files in the subdirectory's of where I am with server1?  Sorry, I"m just a beginner at this stuff....  please note that Id on't want to update or change or copy any files!  I just want like a recursive "diff"....
[12:49] <aquaboy11> how do i use that .exe without windows
[12:49] <aetas> wine
[12:49] <aetas> and if that doesnt run it, then nothing
[12:49] <aquaboy11> ok
[12:50] <aetas> or install a windows VM
[12:50] <DistroJockey> aquaboy11, aetas: I would not run those tools with wine
[12:51] <aetas> he just asked what could run it
[12:51] <DistroJockey> aetas: true, but you've missed a bit of the convo I think :)
[12:52] <aetas> I grabbed the last 2 lines ;)
[12:52] <DistroJockey> lol ;p
[12:52] <aquaboy11> i cant use windows to run them because windows doesnt start
[12:52] <aetas> what are the tools for?
[12:52] <aetas> could be another way to get what you want without it
[12:52] <Pici> aquaboy11: Maybe you should be asking in a Windows support channel to help you get Windows running then.
[12:53] <DistroJockey> aquaboy11: You need a Windows installation disk. And yes, this is getting OT for here as Pici says
[12:53] <aquaboy11> they said i need to look here to fix it
[12:53] <derek> acidphase, distrojockey: metacity sorta worked, i can minimize and maximize my windows now, i just dont have a docking station for them
[12:54] <aetas> aquaboy11, just explain
[12:54] <DistroJockey> derek: Do you have a Panel?
[12:55] <derek> distrojockey: no
[12:55] <aquaboy11> i now removed grub in softwarecenter
[12:56] <DistroJockey> derek: Does running  gnome-panel  help?
[12:56] <Cedara> damn, coz_ hasn't returned
[12:57] <Autodidactite> Hello all, I recently install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package and was not paying enough attention and click next with out agreeing to a License Agreement and so now I have reinstalled the package, uninstalled it and then reinstalled it and just now I tried to uninstall it with --purge and then reinstall it and still no prompt for a EULA for java
[12:58] <derek> distrojockey: i used to have panels, and a top menu bar, they helped me, still getting used to linux, but gnome-panel? is that a different program?
[12:58] <aquaboy11> im already 3 hours trying to fix it today
[13:00] <DistroJockey> derek: It's the non-Unity Gnome panels. Can you log out, click on your username and then choose Ubuntu Classic from the menu at the bottom of the screen?
[13:00] <ppetraki> Autodidactite, try dpkg-reconfigure <java package>
[13:00] <derek> distrojockey: not sure ill try it
[13:03] <kim_> high can some 1 please tell how to or where to solve no pubkey please
[13:03] <Pici> kim_: What is the exact error that you are getting?
[13:04] <DistroJockey> derek: How'd it go?
[13:04] <Autodidactite> Thanks ppetraki I was looking around for such a thing I vaguely remember such a command for when I was locked out of mysql after install because of a bug
[13:04] <derek> distrojockey: thank you so much, i have menu bars back
[13:04] <ppetraki> Autodidactite, worked?
[13:05] <Autodidactite> One moment
[13:05] <ionite> Can anyone help me?
[13:05] <derek> never really liked the unity launcher much anyways, much prefer this way
[13:05] <DistroJockey> derek: You're welcome :) You still have an issue with Compiz/Unity settings probably though
[13:05] <andrewsit> hi everyone i have a problem with tor under ubuntu 10.04 lts any ideas
[13:05] <Pici> ionite: you'll need to ask a question first
[13:05] <DistroJockey> derek: Same :)
[13:06] <Pici> !details | andrewsit
[13:06] <ionite> Why does the boot up screen freeze whenever I choose Install Ubuntu?  (I am booting from USB stick.  I tried Ubootnet, LiLi and md5sum.  All works fine)
[13:06] <kim_> hangs indefinatly and does not install updates and will not install new programs
[13:06] <andrewsit> not installed it's the problem my friend
[13:06] <derek> Distrojockey: well now that this works, i dont care to much about compiz/unity
[13:06] <Cedara> Geforce GT 520 doesn't work on ubuntu 10.04 it seems
[13:06] <derek> Distrojockey: Thanks Again
[13:07] <andrewsit> take alternatives please
[13:07] <shibin> hello
[13:07] <Cedara> anyone got an idea how to solve my problem?
[13:07] <Cedara> did what coz_ told me to, deinstalled the proprietary drivers and reinstalled them
[13:07] <derek> Acidphase: Thank you for all your help too
[13:07] <Cedara> after reboot they fail to load
[13:07] <Pici> !tor | andrewsit take a look at the info here
[13:07] <pindropper> i installed phpmyadmin by doing apt-get install phpmyadmin. it installed and everything. but when i point to mydomain/phpmyadmin it gives a 404. Do I have to do some additional configuration to access phpmyadmin?
[13:08] <iceroot> pindropper: there should be /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf where you enable the alias
[13:08] <Autodidactite> ppetraki, I don't know how to find out the name of the java package I am wanting to reconfigure
[13:09] <pindropper> iceroot: ok. thanks. looking now.
[13:09] <Autodidactite> I tied typing "java" and then hitting the tab key but nothing
[13:10] <ionite> Can anyone help me?
[13:10] <ionite> Why does the boot up screen freeze whenever I choose Install Ubuntu?  (I am booting from USB stick.  I tried Ubootnet, LiLi and md5sum.  All works fine)
[13:10] <Autodidactite> ionite, no anyone can't help you
[13:10] <pindropper> iceroot: i am looking at the file in question. it has an alias directive /phpmyadmin pointing to /usr/share/phpyadmin. What should i change this to? or...?
[13:11] <andrewsit> bad information  my friend this website suck i was look this lasted
[13:11] <ppetraki> Cedara, I take it you're running the latest set of nvidia drivers? http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-ia32-270.41.06-driver.html
[13:11] <Autodidactite> But it you ask your question some might be able to
[13:11] <AFD> can someone help me troubleshoot my LTSP setup?
[13:11] <aetas> ionite, can you give any more info?  what else does it do?
[13:11] <iceroot> pindropper: is it comment out?
[13:11] <andrewsit> thanks for you help
[13:11] <iceroot> pindropper: starting with #
[13:11] <andrewsit> any knows
[13:11] <pindropper> iceroot: no . its not.
[13:11] <AFD> I get the error on clients at boot "failed to connect to NBD server"
[13:11] <Cedara> ppetraki : I think so but i'm not sure
[13:11] <iceroot> pindropper: restarted apache so that apache is reading the new config?
[13:11] <ionite> aetas: It just freezed at the screen after i hit enter: Install Ubuntu
[13:11] <Cedara> Installed current
[13:12] <pindropper> iceroot: i did. i restarted.
[13:12] <DistroJockey> ionite: What sort of system are you running on?
[13:12] <aetas> ionite, immediately?  does it try loading first?
[13:12] <AFD> I've rebuilt the ltsp, update sshkeys and build client...
[13:12] <ionite> Windows XP Pro
[13:12] <DistroJockey> ionite: 32bit or 64bit?
[13:12] <ionite> 32 bit
[13:12] <ppetraki> Autodidactite, there's a log of all your dpkg activity in /var/log, you can use that to narrow it down. Or if you're feeling drastic, pass -a to dpkg-reconfigure, which will prompt for a system wide reconfigure
[13:12] <iceroot> pindropper: where want apache to lookup for http://host/phpmyadmin?
[13:12] <Cedara> ppetraki : I did as was told installed the proprietary drivers and started them but they failed to load when rebooting
[13:12] <pindropper> iceroot: yes.
[13:12] <DistroJockey> ionite: Hardware wise. And what Ubuntu image are you trying to boot?
[13:12] <ionite> previously i got a problem with vesamenu 32 and now it just freezed @ the installation boot menu screen.
[13:13] <ionite> com32rimage
[13:13] <pindropper> iceroot: it should look at mydomain/phpmyadmin
[13:13] <Cedara> ppektraki : "nvidia: Failed to load the nvidia kernel module. Please check your system's kernel log for additional error messages. Failed to load module "nvidia" (module-specific error, 0). No drivers available."
[13:13] <Pici> pindropper, iceroot; You'll need to make sure that theres a symlink in /etc/apache2/conf.d/ that points to /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
[13:13] <iceroot> pindropper: that was not a "yes/no question
[13:13] <Autodidactite> ppetraki, Wow that -a option could be interesting to run
[13:13] <pindropper> iceroot: sorry. i dont understand what you are asking.
[13:13] <iceroot> Pici: i thought the installer is creating that automaticly
[13:13] <Autodidactite> I get the feeling that I could be here a while though
[13:14] <Pici> iceroot: I've seen it not do that in the past for me :/
[13:14] <iceroot> Pici: ah ok
[13:14] <gaurav_natty> i have .bin file of eclipse while running in terminal its shows me error there is no application installed for this

[13:15] <ionite> anyone know why my screen freezed @ boot menu screen?
[13:15] <pindropper> iceroot: ... sorry can you rephrase.
[13:15] <aetas> oops
[13:15] <aetas> andrewsit, that was for you rather
[13:15] <ppetraki> Cedara, sounds like it failed to compile, what does dpkg -l | grep nvidia show? you should see something like "nvidia-185"
[13:15] <Cedara> I uninstalled it for now, lemme reinstall and see what I get
[13:15] <gaurav_natty> i have .bin file of eclipse while running in terminal its shows me error there is no application installed for this .how i change the permission for that eclipse .bin file its always shows me permission denied

[13:17] <Cedara> ppektraki: I fail to remember the command I was told
[13:17] <kim_> i have the failed to download the repostory info in the paste bin
[13:17] <Pici> andrewsit: Its hard to understand your question, maybe #ubuntu-es (español) could be more helpful.
[13:18] <Pici> kim_: You need to give us the pastebin url.
[13:18] <andrewsit> i am  new in ubuntu (a day) please
[13:18] <ppetraki> Cedara, history | grep apt-get
[13:18] <Kuwanger> I'm seeing an odd issue with a few SDL programs.  So long as they're not visible, Xorg usage is reasonable.  The second they're visible, Xorg usage shoots up dramatically and they tend to have sound skipping.
[13:18] <andrewsit> i am not espaniol
[13:18] <magikid> gaurav_natty: if I understand correctly, in a terminal run the command (without quotes) "chmod +x eclipse.bin"

[13:20] <ionite> anyone know why my screen freezed @ boot menu screen?
[13:21] <dumbo88> sounds like a device error ... maybe usb
[13:21] <zex> salve
[13:21] <ppetraki> ionite, could be anything, from buggy bios to unsupported video card
[13:21] <zex> hi
[13:21] <Cedara> ppetraki ok, installed
[13:22] <Cedara> what did you want to know?
[13:22] <ppetraki> ionite, more details would be helpful, make, model, ubuntu version
[13:22] <ppetraki> Cedara, what version is it?
[13:22] <Cedara> how do I check that?
[13:22] <Xotix> hi
[13:22] <ionite> ubuntu 11.04. previously i had a problem of vesamenu 32. now it's fine. just that it freezes at initial start up.
[13:23] <Cedara> via jockey-gtk?
[13:24] <Xotix> i have a cronjob like 0 0  * * * so, everyday at 0:0, right? it worked okaythe first one/two days, but know it doesnt work anymore. the script runs without a bug and error log doesnt show anything. what can i check? the cronjob itself is correct, isnt it?
[13:24] <GeekMan122> hey im trying to change the group read write premissions for a samba directory how should i do this so all the folders and files within the folder are set to the same group permissons to read and write?
[13:24] <Cedara> ppetraki how do I check that?
[13:24] <piciretard> hello

[13:25] <ppetraki> Cedara, dpkg -l |  grep nvidia
[13:25] <iceroot> alex--: why you need that?
[13:25] <alex--> idk
[13:25] <alex--> why not?
[13:25] <lion42> ...av? what?
[13:25] <iceroot> alex--: reread the faq
[13:25] <alex--> antivirus
[13:25] <piciretard> hello :)
[13:25] <lion42> ...??
[13:25] <iceroot> alex--: antivirus for what?
[13:25] <GeekMan122> alex i too would like to know this
[13:25] <alex--> for my server
[13:25] <shibin> try the special key + d to clear the desktop
[13:25] <iceroot> alex--: samba/mailserver?
[13:26] <engineerone> :)
[13:26] <alex--> yes
[13:26] <Autodidactite> Thanks shibin, perfect!
[13:26] <alex--> but why iceroot ?
[13:26] <Autodidactite> I am used o compiz
[13:26] <iceroot> alex--: you dont need the newest version of the virus-scanner. important is the newest version of the virus-database
[13:26] <aquaboy11_> http://pastebin.com/hZDdckdc
[13:26] <alex--> how can I update it?
[13:26] <aquaboy11_> what can i do with http://pastebin.com/hZDdckdc
[13:26] <Cedara> ppetraki that gave me a lot of stuff  - I see nvidia-173
[13:27] <GeekMan122> freshclam
[13:27] <iceroot> alex--: for linux-hosts there is no reason for a virus-scanner only when interacting with windows-clients
[13:27] <rly> Also: virus scanners are completely worthless.
[13:27] <rly> Even on Windows.
[13:27] <iceroot> rly: no
[13:27] <iceroot> rly: e.g. on a mail-server
[13:27] <Cedara> ppetraki : ii  nvidia-current                                           195.36.24-0ubuntu1~10.04
[13:27] <rly> It is completely trivial to defeat a virus scanner.
[13:27] <alex--> iceroot: when someone puts a virus on it
[13:27] <GeekMan122> alex sudo freshclam
[13:27] <alex--> or sends me through email
[13:27] <alex--> I want to keep the server to take care of
[13:27] <alex--> not my home pc
[13:28] <ionite> Ubuntu 11.04 natty seems so unstable when it freezes at dos boot installtion menu.
[13:28] <iceroot> alex--: that is the correct way when there are windows-clients
[13:28] <rly> ionite: that is your hardware.
[13:28] <alex--> iceroot: http://pastebin.com/yYNgXige
[13:28] <rly> ionite: with a 99.9% probability.
[13:28] <ionite> so what should i do? my HW is not gd enough?
[13:28] <ionite> or?
[13:29] <Cedara> ppektraki : I don't want to paste it all here, since that doesn't seem to be proper
[13:29] <iceroot> alex--: everything is fine
[13:29] <alex--> why does it says then?
[13:29] <rly> ionite: first try to boot some other system (Windows/other Linux/other media).
[13:29] <iceroot> alex--: DON'T PANIC! Read http://www.clamav.net/support/faq
[13:29] <GeekMan122> alex i run my clam on a cron
[13:29] <ionite> booting windows XP pro is perfectly fine.
[13:29] <ppetraki> Cedara, use pastebin http://pastebin.com/
[13:29] <alex--> iceroot: i already read
[13:30] <rly> ionite: so, then what does it say?
[13:30] <rly> ionite: there is no dos boot installation menu.
[13:30] <rly> ionite: unless you mean GRUB.
[13:30] <ionite> i booted from USB

[13:30] <GeekMan122> anyways..... hey im trying to change the group read write premissions for a samba directory how should i do this so all the folders and files within the folder are set to the same group permissons to read and write?
[13:30] <rly> ionite: and what does it say?
[13:31] <ionite> install menu appears and i selects Install Ubuntu and it just freezed there after i hit enter
[13:31] <Cedara> ppetraki : here - > http://pastebin.com/D0BWpuAJ
[13:31] <lion42> ionite: try 'run ubuntu from this disc' or whatever
[13:32] <pindropper> Kartagis: hi again. Ok so I did as was described on the page and it worked. i now have php 5.2 installed and it works perfectly. But I am trying to install phpmyadmin and it says it depends on php5-mycrypt which when i try to install says it depends on some php-cgi... which when i try to install it says its an abstract package that is provided by some php 5.3 packages. what to do?
[13:32] <Cedara> ppetraki : I haven't rebooted yet after install though
[13:32] <ionite> i checked on Google, many others seems to have this problem as mine.  They got freezed after hitting enter @ the installation screen while booting from USB.
[13:33] <kora-chan> Hi, I'm running 11.04 and noticed two strange behaviours,... maybe someone know how to fix this. both seem to be related to my intel hd 3000 graphics chip. when using an external monitor i noticed significant devrease in performance also compiz goes up to fully occupying one of my cores when i move around windows. i disabled wait for vsync in compiz settings manager, this seemed to have no big effect, its still sort o
