[19:08] <jeromel> hi all
[19:08] <XtoTheZ> can someone tell me how to change http://pastebin.org/17886 in order to run slack at boot

[19:09] <Halitech> webbb82, did you use sources.list or source.list?
[19:09] <jeromel> someone can explain me how can I mount samba device ???
[19:09] <webbb82> gksudo gedit /etc/apt/source.list
[19:09] <Halitech> webbb82, its sources.list
[19:09] <trothigar> chris| that brings in virtualbox-ose...?
[19:09] <jrib> !samba | jeromel
[19:09] <PenStand> webbb82: it's sources.list
http://ubuntu-tweak.com/
[19:09] <GhostWolfy> hi all, does anyone know a site that lists programs i can use with ubuntu 9.04?
[19:09] <trothigar> jeromel, is it on the local lan
[19:09] <webbb82> ok sorry i just copys what ya wrote
[19:09] <indecent> hello
[19:09] <tyrosine> GhostWolfy: aptitude search
[19:09] <jeromel> trothigar:  yes
[19:10] <trothigar> GhostWolfy, do you mean outside the repos?
[19:10] <LjL> !software > GhostWolfy    (GhostWolfy, see the private message from ubottu)
[19:10] <chris|> trothigar, those are the modules for the OSE of Virtualbox
 http://ubuntu-tweak.com/
[19:10] <webbb82> ok thats better
[19:10] <jeromel> trothigar: in fact I want to use my music folder on a samba device with VLC
[19:10] <GhostWolfy> trothigar, i don't know im looking for a specific type don't know if i can mention it or not
[19:10] <zanberdo> I'm using aptitude from the command line to search for packages. I want the version information in addition to the short description. Is there a switch to provide this? I've tryed -V without success.
[19:10] <webbb82> will ubuntu tweak work with karmic koala
[19:10] <trothigar> chris|, they have the dependencies of the vbox host. oh whatever
[19:10] <chris|> trothigar, sun does not offer closed source guest aditions from an apt reposetory afaik
[19:10] <jeromel> thanks jrib I will try this
[19:11]  * LjL is not sure why ubuntu-tweak is being recommended
 Do you think I am wasting my time by giving the url
[19:11] <tyrosine> I can boot windows from a separate partition inside of a VMware window, right?  ... and is this free software?
[19:11] <trothigar> GhostWolfy, have you tried add or remove programs to see if you can find what you want?
[19:12] <webbb82> NakidGirl_With_I: what ru talkin bout
[19:12] <PenStand> NakidGirl_With_I: are you the owner of ubuntu-tweak.com?
[19:12] <NakidGirl_With_I> brb boyz
[19:12] <trothigar> jeromel, Places-> connect to server, choose samba option
[19:12] <webbb82> im confused
[19:12] <NakidGirl_With_I> PenStand> Nope ,.. that is for ppl who cant use NANO also
[19:12] <tyrosine> pico?
[19:12] <GhostWolfy> trothigar, i need to know what is out there i've googled for the program i've used in windows and says this program works in linux with wine, but i want a program that doesn't use wine but is similar to this program i used to use in windows
[19:12] <PenStand> webbb82: don't care
[19:12] <jeromel> trothigar:  I didd that but I cant use it in VLC
[19:12] <jeromel> i need to mount the device
[19:13] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: tryed freshmeat.net?
[19:13] <tyrosine> GhostWolfy: what program?
[19:13] <webbb82> do you think ubuntu tweak would work with karmic koala
[19:13] <GhostWolfy> tyrosine, its alt.binz thats the name of the program
[19:13] <LjL> webbb82: i think 1) karmic support is in #ubuntu+1 and not here, and 2) i wouldn't touch ubuntu-tweak to begin with, but rather read !software
[19:13] <durt> webbb82, the site says it's in testing.
[19:13] <trothigar> jeromel, smbmount might be what you need
[19:14] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: then pan is your best bet, but usenet clients are pretty sparse
[19:14] <Halitech> webbb82, it may or it may not, with karmic still being beta, it may break it to the point of not being repairable (same goes for any version of Ubuntu)
[19:14] <jeromel> trothigar:  and with smbmount can I specify that I want to mount the device at only start of ubuntu?
[19:14] <zanberdo> nm. apt-cache show x | grep -V does the trick
[19:14] <Boondoklife> jeromel: you can do it by either using the .gvfs folder in you home dir
[19:14] <NakidGirl_With_I> what do you want webb82
[19:14] <trothigar> jeromel, start of ubuntu?
[19:14] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, ok if i can't find a good one i don't mind using my windows comp for it
[19:14] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: unles you just need nzb downloading then you have helllanzb and sabnzbd
[19:15] <trothigar> jeromel, you can access samba mounts from the connect to server under ~/.gvfs i think
[19:15] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, well i do want a client that can allow nzb
[19:15] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, but i want something that is just as easy and close to alt.binz
[19:15] <Boondoklife> jeromel: Just browse to the file the normal way and it will mount the share in that dir. then just open the file with vlc
[19:15] <webbb82> NakidGirl_With_I: scroll up if you wanna know my question
[19:15] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: nothing comparable :|
 sorry you need solution , you do the needful , that is. EXPLAIN URSELF!
[19:16] <GhostWolfy> so you think its best just to use it on my windows computer then??
[19:16] <jeromel> For the moment I used "Connect to a server"
[19:16] <Pici> NakidGirl_With_I: Please calm down.
[19:16] <jeromel> and I choosed "samba"
[19:16] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: no, as pan can do it, just not as flashy
[19:16] <webbb82> NakidGirl_With_I: you are a very confising person
[19:16] <jeromel> but VLC does not recognize it
[19:17] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, what you mean flashy??
[19:17] <conjurer> and the daemons like hellanzb and sabnzbd do it but without a gui
[19:17] <trothigar> chris| still the dependencies are quite heavy
[19:17] <Boondoklife> jeromel: Can you browse the share and see the files you want to play?
[19:17] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: install pan, you'll see
[19:17] <conjurer> lol
[19:17] <XmagusX> Question -- I am having a peculiar issue with libasound2-plugins and ia32lib -- that is that ia32lib requires libasound2-plugins (which is already installed), but states that it is going to remove it before installing, the fails on install because of the libasound2-plugins not being there.  I am currently running Karmic.
[19:17] <jeromel> boondoklife not in vlc
[19:18] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, ok worse case is i won't like it remove it and just use alt.binz on my windows
[19:18] <gsap> q
[19:18] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: it probably runs under wine
[19:18] <Boondoklife> jeromel: yea browse with nautilus till you can see the file
[19:18] <trothigar> jeromel,you can find them under .gvfs
[19:18] <trothigar> jeromel, thats where they are on the file system
[19:18] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, yes but i don't want to install wine since i tried installing programs for it before and had issues with wine
[19:19] <trothigar> XmagusX, ask in #ubuntu+1
[19:19] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: i use hellanzb, with a web frontend on a server
[19:19] <jeromel> nothing in .gvs
[19:19] <Boondoklife> jeromel: once you can see the file, open the .gvfs folder in your home dir (note the dot, it is hidden by default) and you should see your share mounted there.
[19:19] <mad_coder> I have an Linux admin test to take (60 questions) and was wondering if you guys can help me. If I paste the questions in as I take the test, can you guys help me if I run in to problems?
[19:19] <jeromel> .gvfs*
[19:19] <ghoulsblade> hi all, is there a nice and easy way to print multiple photos on a single page ?
[19:19] <Halitech> mad_coder, in other words help you cheat on a test?
[19:19] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, so hellanzb uses nzb but pan doesn't right?
 Why Not .. Anything else you would like help for ?
[19:19] <durt> mad_coder, are you nuts?
[19:19] <jeromel> oh
[19:19] <mad_coder> No, not cheat
[19:19] <jeromel> in nautilus I found it
[19:19] <jeromel> =)
[19:20] <mad_coder> I just don'
[19:20] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: they both can download them, but pan won't par or unrar them
[19:20] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, ok so which is better pan or hellanznb??
[19:20] <Pici> mad_coder: This is not a homework help channel, this is Ubuntu Support
[19:20] <jeromel> very good
[19:21] <mad_coder> whatever.... JUst looking for some help if I ran in to trouble
[19:21] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: differnt kinds of app, pan can browse newsgroups and has nzb downloading, hella and sab are tailored just for nzbs
[19:21] <shaullx> i had ubuntu installed via wubi and i formated windows and reinstalled and now i can't boot into ubuntu what should i do?
[19:21] <jeromel> thanks Boondoklife and trothigar ! it works =)
[19:21] <NakidGirl_With_I> mad_coder> Dont hold yourself back , let us know your wishlist
[19:21] <Boondoklife> jeromel: np
[19:21] <jeromel> And now juste a question about player
[19:21] <jeromel> which player is the best to manage a music library?
[19:21] <Halitech> shaullx, did you reinstall Ubuntu using wubi?
 You run in trouble , You work Harder ,.. awwright!
[19:22] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, well i don't need to browse i got sites i can search for stuff i wanna get i just need a client that allows ssl allow least 20 connections
[19:22] <trothigar> jeromel, amarok probably, but its built for kde
[19:22] <Boondoklife> jeromel: I personally am partial to banshee, but play around with them all
[19:22] <Halitech> shaullx, when you install using wubi, its actually installed as a file on the windows partition, wipe out windows and you wipe out Ubuntu
[19:22] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: then you want hella or sab, pan only allows 4 and has no ssl without an external stunnel
[19:22] <jeromel> what about xmms?
[19:23] <trothigar> Boondoklife, do you know how to sort music into folders using banshee/rhythmbox?
[19:23] <Pici> jeromel: xmms is no longer supported upstream.
[19:23] <jeromel> oki
[19:23] <RHorse>
[19:23] <Boondoklife> jeromel: I havent used that in ages
[19:23] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, ok i'll try hellanzb like i said worse case is i use alt.binz even tho i don't know if that does more than 10 connections or not
[19:23] <Boondoklife> =)
[19:23] <shaullx> Halitech ubuntu was installed in a dif partition so i still have it i just don't know how to boot into it
[19:23] <durt> jeromel, xmms was deprecated long time ago. See xmms2
[19:23] <Boondoklife> trothigar: are you trying to rename and sort based on the tags?
[19:24] <Halitech> shaullx, it would be the same as any other program installed on a seperate partition, the registry settings and the modifications to the boot loader are gone, you need to reinstall it
[19:24] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: hellanzb does everything you want just not with a gui, you run it and then put the nzbs into a folder, it downloads and pars/unrars them
[19:24] <trothigar> Boondoklife, yes, also a program which can get tags from the internet would also be useful.
[19:24] <jeromel> durt:  oki so what about xmms2 to manage media files ?
[19:25] <Pici> trothigar: Have you looked at easytag?
[19:25] <Boondoklife> trothigar: I use easytag for all of that, works great
[19:25] <bthornton> Does Ubuntu 9.04 come with any graphical (X/Gnome/KDE) firewall configuration clients?
[19:25] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, oh.. well whats the other program you mentioned sab something?? is that a gui program or no?
[19:25] <bthornton> or is there a good one in the repositories that I can install?
[19:25] <shaullx> Halitech there should be a way to edit the boot loader and add ubuntu isn't there?
[19:25] <trothigar> Boondoklife, i have. Can it remove duplicates?
[19:25] <Pici> bthornton: Take a look at gufw
[19:25] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: no, it's a daemon too, they both only have web frontends, sabnzbd
[19:25] <bthornton> Pici: looking, thanks!
[19:26] <Boondoklife> hmm not sure havent tried lemme take a look
[19:26] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, ok well i'll just use alt.binz on windows its no biggy, btw you don't know anything bout samba do you??
[19:26] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: a little
[19:27] <Halitech> shaullx, if it was a true OS install then yes but its not and I've never played around with the windows boot loader so not sure how you would edit it to get it to work correctly
[19:27] <jeromel> I have another question. I use compiz but I would like to play quake3 or other 3Dgames but when I launch it the screen resolution goes to 640x480 and the game does not work
[19:27] <jeromel> have you any idea about the problem?
[19:27] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, well i installed samba, configured it to what i was told by someone here at one point, and was able to view my ubuntu files from windows but after i reinstalled ubuntu and then install samba again and did the config again i can't get it to work now, do you think you can help me?
[19:28] <shaullx> Halitech well is there any way to get data out of there? i have important things in my ubuntu i need to backup
[19:28] <unkmar> My system claims to be Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS and I need to repair my hung audio.  reboot the audio with out rebooting the system.
[19:28] <duffydack> GhostWolfy, use ninan (great) or lottanzb
[19:28] <Boondoklife> trothigar: doesnt look like it can, It sure you could write a small script to scour your folders, but that would only work if your tags are all correct.
[19:28] <GhostWolfy> duffydack, im stickin with alt.binz but thanks anyways
[19:28] <Halitech> shaullx, I'm not sure, I've never been a fan of wubi ...
 rmmod audio modules
[19:29] <shaullx> :(
[19:29] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: yeah, but i edit the configs by hand, i think ubuntu has something to do it automatically
[19:29] <trothigar> Boondoklife, maybe even write a patch to easytag ;) ty
[19:29] <Halitech> shaullx, maybe check the forum in the wubi section, might be info there
[19:29] <Boondoklife> trothigar: true, but a shell script is prolly easier =P
[19:30] <JamieBennett> Anyone running a asrock G43Twins mobo with Karmic?
[19:30] <shaullx> Halitech will do thanks
[19:30] <martes> hi there. I'm currently trying to mount a directory on a server as /home on my local PC via fstab. the strange thing is: After the boot, the home directory is not mounted. When i execute the command mount the first time, it doesn't list /home as a mounted directory. When I execute it a second time then, it lists /home as mounted and everything's fine
[19:30] <pyro2927> hi everyone.  if my desktop randomly does a complete lock-up, is it possible I had bad RAM?
[19:30] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, i did edit by hand i can pastebin my conf file and show and see if theres something missing i need to do
[19:30] <n8tuser> how do i map lets say  "alt left key + y " to echo out "hello world"
[19:30] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: ok sure then :)
[19:30] <shaullx> btw what works better on netbooks win7 or ubuntu?
[19:30] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, ok
[19:31] <trothigar> Boondoklife, i like a challenge :P
[19:31] <n8tuser> shaullx-> ubuntu in our opinion... :P
[19:31] <conjurer> shaullx: win7 takbar is fugeeeee, and takes up too much of the screen imo :P plus its windows
[19:31] <duffydack> GhostWolfy,  well in case you change your mind : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1234982
[19:31] <Boondoklife> trothigar: lol, same here but damned if time doesn't spite me on an hourly basis
[19:31] <romeus> I'm having a strange problem with my gnome panel, there's a thin white line that extends across most of it see: http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/8603/whitelinegnomepanel.png
[19:31] <romeus> is there any way to fix this?
[19:32] <shaullx> conjurer i dont like windows but 7 is awesome
[19:32] <shaullx> how is battery life with ubuntu?
[19:32] <shaullx> better then with windows?
[19:32] <GhostWolfy> duffydack, well like i told conjurer im wanting a program that is like alt.binz that is gui, that does maybe least 20 connections and ssl and doesn't use wine to work
[19:32] <B9> i have extracted a tar.gz file and extracted it, and I have a terminal and have changed cd to the subdirectory with the files, what sudo do I do now?
[19:32] <trothigar> romeus, you could reset the panels back to their default settings.
[19:32] <Boondoklife> shaullx: my battery lasts about the same in both
[19:32] <conjurer> shaullx: comparable to windows, better if you want to tweak it
[19:33] <Halitech> B9, what does the readme file tell you to do?
[19:33] <webbb82> whats in the cdrom repository
[19:33] <conjurer> shaullx: look at the app called powertop
[19:33] <duffydack> GhostWolfy, well ninan uses web interface but is very advanced, it can do ssl and however many connections...  lottanzb is a gui and is simple but good.  gets pars when needed and extracts, same as ninan
[19:33] <B9> Halitech: it just has /usr/bin/
[19:33] <martes> hi there. I'm currently trying to mount a directory on a server as /home on my local PC via fstab. the strange thing is: After the boot, the home directory is not mounted. When i execute the command mount the first time, it doesn't list /home as a mounted directory. When I execute it a second time then, it lists /home as mounted and everything's fine
[19:34] <GhostWolfy> duffydack, ok well i'll just stick with alt.binz
[19:34] <shaullx> conjurer this app is for linux?
[19:34] <conjurer> shaullx: yes
[19:34] <shaullx> i mean only linux?
[19:34] <conjurer> yes
[19:34] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, here is my conf file http://pastebin.com/m15f0749d
[19:34] <Halitech> B9, what do you mean it just has /usr/bin ???
[19:34] <shaullx> nice app
[19:35] <slestak> ive got a problem with thunderbird + ldap address book.  If I type a new email address in teh address bar (that is not present) i get a huge timeout halfway through keying as ubuntu searches for the partial address
[19:35] <shaullx> my battery lasts for 2.5-3 hours i should buy a 6 cell
[19:35] <slestak> anyone else using tbird + ldap that can compare performance?
[19:35] <B9> that is all it has in the instruction file :-(
[19:35] <Boondoklife> shaullx: what is your battery now?
[19:35] <DefineByte> in the middle of a large file transfer over ssh the connection drops and when looking at the remote machine I see multiple error messages saying "end_request: I/O error, dev hda, sector #whatever#". What exactly does this message mean? Could I have a dying disk? It's not very old. Could it be caused by sshd or some other daemon causing problems during the transfer?
[19:35] <Halitech> B9, what are you trying to install?
[19:36] <slestak> DefineByte: that sounds like hardware errors with your drive
[19:36] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: looks fine, is your windows boxes using MSHOME or WORKGROUP?
[19:36] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, MSHOME
[19:37] <DefineByte> slestak: fschk doesn't find anything. Is there a more thorough test you can do?
[19:37] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: ok did you set the password?
[19:37] <B9> *ooops* zorry
[19:37] <DefineByte> slestak: also, I have seen people with the same message that turned out to be a software problem.
[19:37] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, um only password i have is when i login to this computer which runs ubuntu
[19:37] <slestak> DefineByte: i dont use it, but i understand SMART will check the drive itself for signs of failure, not jus the filesystem
[19:37] <slestak> DefineByte: ahh, ok.
 Take backup NOW seek help laterz ...
[19:38] <arand> DefineByte: are you running the forced fsck?
[19:38] <B9> Halitech: /home/beauford/Desktop/Downloads/guipdftk.tar.gz
[19:38] <DefineByte> arand: no, i'm running it at boot time
[19:38] <eichenwald> I've been trying to figure out a way to auto detect settings for the xorg conf file, tried doing dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg, but the file generated is so generic it doesn't even list a specific drive. its an integrated intel graphics card 82Q35, the generic xorg works fine except with making flash videos fullsize I get am extension GLX missing error any ideas
[19:39] <Halitech> DefineByte, get a copy of Ultimate boot cd and use the hardware disk tools on it
[19:39] <Halitech> DefineByte, fsck is only a file system checker and doesn't really test the physical disk
[19:39] <DefineByte> NakidGirl_With_I: there's nothing important on it. :)
[19:39] <slestak> DefineByte: i would still check the SMART data of the drive.  THis is the link I'm talking about.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools
[19:39] <NakidGirl_With_I> DefineByte> mount it with ro option , and save yourself from getting fscked.. dont tell me later .. you were not told
[19:39] <conjurer> GhostWolfy: i'm not sure if ubuntu auto sets up passwords the same as your user one
[19:39] <{g}> jrib: yes, feh rotates but it doesnt let you overwrite the file afterwards.
[19:39] <slestak> anyone using tbird + ldap address book?
[19:39] <DefineByte> slestak: thanks. Halitech: the system doesn't have a cd drive but I guess I could put it on a USB stick?
 You know so much them tell me abt SRST failed error (-16) , disk not detected .. what do you do
[19:40] <n8tuser> how do i map lets say  "alt left key + y " to echo out "hello world"    ?
[19:40] <slestak> NakidGirl_With_I: dunno, sorry
[19:40] <slestak> NakidGirl_With_I: try google?
[19:40] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, when i do this in run in windows \\WOLVESDEN1\<user> it pops up to where i type my username and password which i do for my login for ubuntu and when i hit ok it pops up with \\WOLVESDEN1\<user> like my password or username is wrong
[19:40] <arand> DefineByte: But it has run through a cycle, and not just getting the "blablahbla date... marked as clean..." message
[19:40] <Halitech> B9, wasn't looking for the link to the file on your desktop, just the name of the program
[19:41] <GhostWolfy> conjurer, well i setup a password when i installed ubuntu for when i login to ubuntu
[19:41] <jetrii> Has anyone here experienced sound problems with SNES9X on Ubuntu 9.04 PPC? It was working on 8.xx a while back but it doesn't seem to work anymore.
[19:41] <B9> it is a GUI pdftk
[19:41] <Halitech> DefineByte, I'm not sure, but check the website and it may have in structions for installing on a usb stick, does the machine support booting from usb?
[19:41] <DefineByte> arand: i put /forcefschk in the root which forced a check. Is that not what you mean?
[19:41] <Halitech> B9, have you checked the repo to see if its available there?
[19:41] <NakidGirl_With_I> slestak> Oooh I did not know about that , did I ?
[19:41] <wingdspur> I've been trying to figure out a way to auto detect settings for the xorg conf file, tried doing dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg, but the file generated is so generic it doesn't even list a specific drive. its an integrated intel graphics card 82Q35, the generic xorg works fine except with making flash videos fullsize I get am extension GLX missing error any ideas
[19:41] <B9> Halitech: repo?
[19:42] <arand> DefineByte: that should work, provided you spelled it /forcefsck instead
[19:42] <Halitech> B9, System - admin - Synaptic package manager
[19:42] <duffydack> GhostWolfy, need to set a samba password for your user
[19:42] <sphenxes01> It would be for me the first time to try LVM partition. My question: in case of failure of a partition, usually i can restore it with dd  command (in case i have backed up my MBR). My question what should i backup or take care of in case of LVM partition?
[19:42] <DefineByte> arand: yes, I spelled it right at the time ^^
[19:42] <DefineByte> Halitech: I'm pretty sure it will boot off USB but I've never tried it. It will boot of an internal CF card though.
[19:42] <duffydack> GhostWolfy, rusty brain, but something like smbpasswd -a
[19:43] <Halitech> DefineByte, ok, guess no harm in trying it then
[19:43] <DefineByte> If I had my wits about me I probably would have timed the transfer to see if it froze at the same point but ah well. :)
[19:43] <arand> try running a "fsck -f -y  from a livecd, it _may_ catch more errors.
[19:44] <twan_vd_p> Im running ubuntu LTS plain, and trying to install wsgi, but; it keeps telling me that a package called "apache2.2-common" is misshing, but it isnt availeble either, any ideas someone ?
[19:44] <B9> Halitech: i can't find it there
[19:44] <DefineByte> arand: ok, I'll give it a go. :)
[19:44] <DefineByte> arand: thanks
[19:44] <NakidGirl_With_I> twan_vd_p> what is wsgi
[19:45] <brixtonasias> hi all. is anyone here using an elgato eye tv hybrix usb stick successfully with ubuntu?
[19:45] <twan_vd_p> mod_wsgi
[19:45] <sam__> hi
[19:45] <Halitech> B9, ok, do you have the link where you downloaded the file from?
[19:45] <arand> DefineByte: you 'll have to add the device /dev/sda# (replace #) to specify it
[19:45] <twan_vd_p> actually; libapache2-mod-wsgi
[19:45] <B9> Halitech: http://www.paehl.de/pdf/gui_pdftk.html
[19:46] <NakidGirl_With_I> Indonesia's Aceh passes stoning law This is a country of neaderthels
[19:46] <treble541> are there any options for the slab menu?
[19:46] <NakidGirl_With_I> twan  . no idea
[19:46] <Pici> !offtopic | NakidGirl_With_I
[19:46] <Myrtti> NakidGirl_With_I: please no politics here
[19:46] <arand> DefineByte: i.e: "sudo fsck -f -y /dev/sda5" if your root partitio "/" is on partion no. 5
[19:46] <sphenxes01> Can clonezilla make an image of LVM partitions?
[19:47] <twan_vd_p> Does anyone have experience with libapache2-mod-wsgi ( for running pyhton apps (django im my case) on apache
 no politics, stoning girls ! how is that politics
[19:47] <Pici> twan_vd_p: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[19:47] <twan_vd_p> ubuntu lts plain 6.0
[19:47] <Pici> NakidGirl_With_I: How is it related to Ubuntu? Not at all.
[19:47] <DefineByte> arand: thanks. I'll have to make some boot media too. That's built into Ubuntu now isn't it?
[19:47] <martes> NFS does not mount at boottime via fstab, why?
[19:47] <B9> halitech: the Linux binary .33
[19:48] <twan_vd_p> wsgi wasnt availeble back then ? Pici ?
[19:48] <DefineByte> will the USB Startup Disk Creator do the job?
[19:48] <NakidGirl_With_I> Then how is viewing porn and asking help here relevant too ...
[19:48] <Pici> twan_vd_p: No, I don't see that package as being available for dapper.
[19:49] <blackfire94> siema
[19:49] <blackfire94> dddddddddd
[19:49] <DefineByte> i should say, arand: will the USB Startup Disk Creator do the job? (missed your name off)
[19:49] <genii> !pl | blackfire94
[19:49] <arand> DefineByte: you can make a usb stick quite simply using the usb-creator, or burn a CD in brasero the old fashioned way
[19:49] <twan_vd_p> Pici I have downloaded a .deb file from the wsgi Google srouce code site, but when i try to "dpkg --install bla.deb" it says it's depending on a missing package "apache2.2-common". I cant install this package, in Aptitude it says "not availeble"
[19:50] <blackfire94> hello
[19:50] <DefineByte> arand: thanks again. :)
[19:50] <duffydack> sphenxes01, LVM2 (LVM version 1 is not) under GNU/Linux is supported.   according to the webpage
[19:50] <olinuxx> yep'
[19:50] <genii> blackfire94: Hello. you can ask questions here if you can speak english
[19:50] <KS104> Hey, I can't get certain DVD's to be recognized by 8.10
[19:50] <Halitech> B9, when I download the zip file, I get a tar.bz file and when I extract that I get guipdftk and guipdftk.config, is that the same as what you got?
[19:51] <B9> yup
[19:51] <B9> *oops*
[19:51] <B9> Halitech: yup
[19:51] <sphenxes01> duffydack, thanks
[19:51] <Pici> twan_vd_p: Thats because in later versions of Ubuntu apache2.2-common *is* available in the repos, as is libapache2-mod-wsgi
[19:51] <Halitech> B9, ok, well the guipdftk is an executable so doesn't look like you need to actually do anything but run it
[19:52] <alessio> hhhhh
[19:52] <B9> Halitech: i tried to click on it to run but no cigar
[19:52] <twan_vd_p> Pici cant you give me an url for the srouce.lst or is this just plain stupid ?
why dont you download and recompile it
[19:52] <Pici> NakidGirl_With_I: compiling apache2 isn't a trivia task.
[19:53] <KS104> I just bought Azumanga Daioh on DVD, and can't get it to get picked up, but I can get things like Terminator 2 to show up
[19:53] <sphenxes01> duffydack, I have installed LVM using Ubuntu Sever CD. do you know whether it is lvm 1 or 2
[19:53] <NakidGirl_With_I> Pici> onlt then next time he can come here & help ppl
[19:53] <twan_vd_p> Pici NakidGirl_With_I , isnt this somehting i can do with some kindof tut or is it too complex ?
[19:53] <Pici> twan_vd_p: You'd need to upgrade to a new version of Ubuntu to be able to fully use apache2.2 and therefor mod-wsgi
[19:53] <Flannel> twan_vd_p: Why don't you upgrade to 8.04, which is LTS?
[19:54] <Halitech> B9, I have no idea, doesn't work for me either
 you have cc installed, us yes install autoconf and go ahead best of luck
[19:54] <Flannel> NakidGirl_With_I: Please don't give silly recommendations
[19:54] <bigcx2> hey, has anyone gotten sound notifications to work properly in empath in 9.04???
[19:54] <twan_vd_p> This situation plays on my server which is only remote-reacheble.
[19:54] <bigcx2> empathy*
 since when compling was silly ?
[19:55] <twan_vd_p> Cant I just install a new version of Apache Flannel, Pici, NakidGirl_With_I ?
[19:55] <DefineByte> SMART seems to think the disk is OK for what it's worth.
[19:55] <Flannel> twan_vd_p: You can upgrade from 6.06 to 8.04 remotely.  You really should consider it anyway.
[19:55] <Halitech> B9, do you have pdftk installed? I think guipdftk is just a gui front end for it
 my suggestion is tagged silly so forget it !
[19:56] <karlheinzPresley> holla
[19:56] <Flannel> twan_vd_p: 6.06 will only be supported for another year and a half on the server, and it's currently only partially supported, because *only* the "server" is supported still.
[19:56] <karlheinzPresley> how can i resize a ext3 partition?
[19:56] <resno> i am trying to setup my computers so when you log on it pulls your files from a server. would this be called a domain server?
[19:56] <bigcx2> does anyone use empathy here in 9.04?
[19:57] <twan_vd_p> Flannel, thanks for your advice. I'm going to investigate the upgrade. ( Pici also ty ! )
[19:57] <Flannel> twan_vd_p: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades

[19:59] <MrSchmo> is there a program in linux that you can lock usb access with password?
 evening evening
[20:00] <MrSchmo> its good afternoon here
[20:00] <B9> Halitech: nothing happens when i double click it... it says that it is an executable but it doesn't have an extension, should i rename it with an extension?
[20:00] <treble54> are there any options for the slab menu? or where do I go to change whats listed in the "System" section of the slab menu besides dragging items there
[20:01] <trism> treble54: you can right click it and edit it
[20:01] <AmbrNewlearner> Hello, I purchased a new seagate 250 GB HDD.....In Ubuntu, when I dmesg I get following :
[20:01] <AmbrNewlearner> [    1.898736] sd 1:0:0:0: [sda] 488397168 512-byte hardware sectors: (250 GB/232 GiB)
[20:01] <treble54> trism: hmm it doesn't seem to let me do that :(
[20:02] <treble54> I have version 0.9.11
[20:02] <AmbrNewlearner> It is 250GB HDD but it shows only 232 GB....any ideas why?
[20:02] <treble54> not sure if that matters
[20:02] <Halitech> B9, linux doesn't require extensions ... I think its only a front end to pdftk, do you have that installed?
[20:02] <xurxo> when i tell terminal to  sudo apt-get install subversion, terminal tells me E couldnt find package subversion. Why? Any ideas, thxs
[20:02] <AmbrNewlearner> What does 250GB/232GB in output of dmesg means?
[20:02] <Pici> AmbrNewlearner: Because gigabytes are not the same thing as gibibytes.
[20:02] <erUSUL> xurxo: becouse the package does not exist ? maybe it is called svn
[20:02] <resno> AmbrNewlearner:  where are you seeing the disk size?
[20:02] <duffydack> sphenxes01, ive no idea, sorry
[20:02] <edoceo> Like a dummy I moved my Ubuntu from /dev/sda5 to /dev/sda2 (making room for others) I updated the root UUID in /etc/fstab and in the grub configs but when I boot all I get is a grub prompt
[20:02] <Flannel> erUSUL, xurxo: it's subversion.  xurxo is this a fresh install? have you done sudo apt-get update?
[20:03] <AmbrNewlearner> resno: In gparted....the disk is unformatted now
[20:03] <B9> Halitech: yes, but i am not good with command line unless it is a sudo
[20:03] <erUSUL> Flannel: just checked you are right
[20:03] <sphenxes01> duffydack, thanks, i think it is lvm2
[20:03] <xurxo> ill try
[20:03] <AmbrNewlearner> Pici: I get your point..... I'm surely blind ;)
[20:03] <edoceo> If I manually `linux ... root=/dev/sda2` && `initrd ... boot` it's OK, how to configure grub to look for boot in /dev/sda2 not /dev/sda5?
[20:03] <Flannel> edoceo: You need to tell grub stage1 about the new location (reinstall GRUB to your MBR), the following link will walk you through it
[20:03] <Flannel> !grub | edoceo
[20:04] <AmbrNewlearner> Pici: ty very much :)
[20:04] <Pici> AmbrNewlearner: no problem
[20:04] <Halitech> B9, I'm not sure, I'm assuming the config file needs to point to where the other file is installed but I don't know
[20:04] <conjurer> edoceo: edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst
[20:04] <spade> I like to backup /etc to a USB stick, but get permission denied errors and attempts to create symbolic links instead, even though I used sudo cp -r /etc "/media/MY USB/etc" Please advise.
[20:04] <Flannel> edoceo: What's happening is grub isn't able to find your menu.lst, so it just sits there without any configuration
[20:04] <erUSUL> spade: use cp -a ?
 try cpio instead
[20:04] <B9> halitech: the config just has that file string in it USR/Bin
[20:04] <MeXTuX> What would happen if I tried to install Ubuntu Network Remix on a desktop PC???  :|
[20:04] <B9> Halitech: i tried to copy the file there but it wouldn't let me
[20:05] <AmbrNewlearner> Pici: To be honest, I never new that there is something called gigibytes :D
[20:06] <xurxo> erUSUL can you explain further? what is svn?
[20:06] <Pici> AmbrNewlearner: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabyte#Consumer_confusion explains it a bit
[20:06] <scunizi> MeXTuX: there are instructions on how to do that someplace.. if done right you'll have an icon by the clock to switch back and forth between the two desktops
[20:06] <edoceo> conjurer, Flannel: oops, I'm in wrong channel - this is using "grub2" from Karmic  - but yes, was unable to find /boot/grub/grub.cfg;  and when I "regrubbed" from a boot CD (sysresccd) that was Grub1
[20:06] <Halitech> B9, you would need sudo to move it but I don't know if its saying to move that file there or if the pdftk is supposed to be there
[20:06] <erUSUL> xurxo: i was wrong the package should exist. what is you version of ubuntu ? is a fresh install ?
[20:06] <fbianconi> !info svn
[20:06] <AmbrNewlearner> Pici: thanks again for the link :)
[20:06] <Pici> fbianconi: the package name is subversion
[20:07] <xurxo> jaunty. installed it a couple of days ago, erusul. Im updating now. thanks
[20:08] <fiber_cut> How can I change ubuntu to su instead of sudo
[20:08] <erUSUL> xurxo: check in system>Admin>software sources that you have enabled all essential repositories (main universe and multiverse)
[20:08] <edubruell> can somebody tell me which of this two notebook is a better choice if you want to run ubuntu: http://tinyurl.com/acerechner
 both are different apps
[20:08] <thinkbinary> ds
[20:08] <edubruell> and http://tinyurl.com/dellrechner
[20:08] <Halitech> fiber_cut, you would need to enable root log ins which are not supported here or the forums
[20:09] <erUSUL> fiber_cut: you can use su in ubuntu just fine. "su username" will change you to that username
 depends which one you are buying for me
[20:09] <spade> I tried cp -a, but am getting lots of owner errors, operation not permitted, and still attempts to create symbolic links.
[20:09] <neurochrome> hey folks, If I create my own icon theme in ~/.icons then what do I call the icon for ardour that I want to use?
 told yaa  give cpio a try
[20:09] <iceroot> edubruell: we are using the one from acer at work and dont have problems
[20:09] <fiber_cut> never mind had a brain fart
[20:09] <slestak> wrt to my ldap issue, i found launchpad #320057 wheich appears to be my issue.
[20:09] <egaudet> My roomates dell windows laptop I believe has an MBR issue and won't boot.  I want to fix the laptop via pxe boot from my ubuntu desktop.  Any suggestions?  Will I have to burn an xp cd to fix it?
[20:10] <erUSUL> fiber_cut: but as Halitech points out root account is disabled and we do not support enabling it so "su root" (and its shortform "su") is not supported
[20:10] <xurxo> erusul. all sources are checked. Now the terminal is stuck updating 32%
[20:10] <edoceo> fiber_cut: but you could `sudo -i` to be root at shell prompt
[20:10] <slestak> egaudet: pxeboot is overkill for what you want.
[20:10] <fiber_cut> Ok, But I did get it to work
[20:10] <scunizi> edubruell: they both have ATI video cards.. look for references on those cards with ubuntu.. Some ATI cards no longer work because of ATI's driver support.  Nvidia is easier.
[20:10] <erUSUL> xurxo: maybe just a problem with the mirror you use ?
[20:11] <edubruell> ah o.k.
[20:11] <egaudet> slestak, explain.  I have no usb stick and no cd burner aside from the laptop's cd-rw
[20:11] <xurxo> mirror?
[20:11] <edubruell> i didn't find dell laptops with nvidia cards in germany
[20:11] <conjurer> fiber_cut: sudo passwd root :P then you can su
[20:11] <slestak> egaudet: to fix win's MBR, i think you need a win disk.  if you had dual boot setup, then you could use grub, but it didnt sound liek you have grub on the disk
[20:11] <scunizi> edubruell: in the U.S. we can have them configured that way
[20:11] <erUSUL> xurxo: the server you download packages from
[20:12] <erUSUL> !rootpass
[20:12] <edubruell> and the acer is not configurable at all
[20:12] <Halitech> !root
[20:12] <Pici> !noroot
[20:12] <Crosswing> !root
[20:12] <Pici> Crosswing: The bot just said it a few lines up
[20:12] <Crosswing> Oh
[20:12]  * Crosswing pets ubottu
[20:13] <erUSUL> Pici: i liked the ...unless you are going to be here 24/7/365 to support people who has one... ;P
[20:13] <slestak> Pici: sth i have not been able to reconcile is making changes to cups requires you to enter a root password (sudo password isn't goot enough).  Hence, a root password must be makde
[20:13] <egaudet> slestak, that's what I figured I would need but the issue is that I don't have a working cd-rw drive aside from on the laptop.  It's a dell, I attempted to boot a live ubuntu image from usb key, and it failed saying no bootloader found.  After a reboot it went right to DRKM loading... thing which from googling I gather is an MBR issue
[20:13] <slestak> s/makde/made
[20:13] <Halitech> slestak, actually my sudo password works fine in cups
[20:13] <egaudet> worst comes to worse I can wait until tomorrow to burn an xp cd, but if I can get it fixed today via pxeboot that would be good
[20:13] <slestak> Halitech: hmmm
[20:13] <xurxo> erUSUL my packages havnt been downloading well. Is the mirror what i change under software sources. I have it on main server
[20:13] <RedEyess> how does one turn off/on a service in Ubuntu 9.04?
[20:14] <scunizi> slestak: my password also works fine in cups.. www.localhost:631
[20:14] <erUSUL> xurxo: chosee the fastest
[20:14] <edoceo> egaudet: to fix Windows MBR issue you'll need XP (or similar CD) to run `chkdsk /fixmbr` or similar
[20:14] <thinkbinary> hi all
[20:14] <erUSUL> xurxo: choose*
[20:14] <Halitech> egaudet, look at supergrub
[20:14] <egaudet> the current issue is that I have no way of burning an XP cd with my desktop because my cd drive is broken
[20:15] <scunizi> xurxo: you can also choose "other" and have synaptic test for the best server for your location.
[20:15] <Halitech> egaudet, will it boot from usb?
[20:15] <egaudet> Halitech, no that is what caused this problem
[20:15] <Halitech> egaudet, bummer
[20:15] <slestak> anyone using ldap + tbird that can confirm something for me?
[20:15] <GobiTheGoblin> hi there, anyone who knows somethign about fixing 9.10-netbook remix?
[20:15] <erUSUL> !karmit | GobiTheGoblin
[20:15] <egaudet> I attempted to boot an ubuntu live usb disk, and it didn't work and apparently messed up the MBR
[20:15] <Halitech> !9.10 | GobiTheGoblin
[20:15] <slestak> specifically with active directory (i know, booo- hiss)
[20:15] <RedEyess> what if an item doesn't exist in the Services Settings  panel?
[20:15] <Ziber> what is the package to reconfigure for setting the time of a server?
[20:15] <GobiTheGoblin> k ty

[20:16] <B9> Halitech: u given up on me :-(
[20:16] <egaudet> i am going to try to configure ltsp and see if i can pxe boot the laptop so i can burn the xp iso to cd
[20:17] <erUSUL> RedEyess: does it have a service  script under /etc/init.d/ ??
[20:17] <ClimDan> hi
[20:17] <CrAzYoNi> Hi al

[20:17] <RedEyess> erUSUL: it does, but i don't to prevent a service from starting up on reboot
[20:17] <CrAzYoNi> *all
[20:17] <erUSUL> !info tzdata | Ziber
[20:18] <erUSUL> RedEyess: you want to disable the service ?
[20:18] <Crosswing> Ziber, I personally use 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata'
[20:18] <xurxo> scunizi. AH! select best server. good stuff scunizi. thanks!
[20:18] <RedEyess> i want to prevent a service from starting up on boot up

[20:19] <Halitech> B9, ummmm yup cause I have no idea about the program :(
[20:19] <queso_> What decent open source wireframing software (for scetching website layouts) is there?
[20:19] <Cpudan80> !info tzdata | Ziber
[20:19] <Cpudan80> should get it done
[20:19] <erUSUL> Ziber: :( old distro version. use « sudo tzconfig »
[20:19] <twan_vd_p> Flannel, I removed the third-party urls from the sources.list and did the "dapper-updates". My version now is "ubuntu 6.06 dapper", can I do a dist-upgrade now ?
[20:20] <Cpudan80> oh he wants the dapper one ... hrm
[20:20] <CrAzYoNi> I've got working on my Ubuntu Jaunty system and playing the "terminal server client" application, it got frozen on full screen mode, so I opened a new tty (Ctrl+Alt+1) logged in and killed it's two processes, afterwards I did "ps -u username | more" and after I passed some lines with the "Enter" button my system was restarted, on messages file I can see the line: Sep 14 21:59:18 Server exiting on signal 15
[20:20] <CrAzYoNi> Sep 14 22:00:16 Server syslogd 1.5.0#5ubuntu3: restart.; do you have an idea about how can I notice what made the system restart?
[20:20] <Flannel> twan_vd_p: Did you follow the instructions on that page?
[20:20] <B9> Halitech: u know anyone around here that might be able to help me?
[20:20] <Flannel> twan_vd_p: Specifically: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades#Network%20Upgrade%20from%206.06%20for%20Ubuntu%20Servers%20(Recommended)

[20:20] <clj2289> how can I downgrade a package version?
[20:20] <twan_vd_p> They told me to perform a dapper-update first, I did that. But the documentation references to gnome, while im using ssh access
[20:20] <twan_vd_p> Flannal <<
[20:20] <twan_vd_p> Flannel <
[20:21] <RedEyess> erUSUL: Thanks! I just installed BUM (BootUp Manager - a graphical interface app)

[20:21] <Cube_> in emacs, i'm trying to change the default font to PURITA, but it seems not to be getting it. i can change the font temporarily to PURITA if i use the dropdown menu though.
[20:21] <erUSUL> RedEyess: ok; that should work too
[20:21] <clj2289> thanks
[20:21] <Halitech> B9, not off hand, if anyone knows they would have probably chimed in by now ... maybe post on the forum for assistance
[20:21] <ceil420> how can i see what's using hw:0?
[20:22] <alechiko> Anybody here have a netbook (Asus EEEPC)
[20:22] <Ziber> eh well, i can use TZ as a system variable.
[20:22] <edoceo> alechiko: yep
[20:22] <edoceo> 1005HAB
[20:22] <slestak> alechiko: i have a mini9, whats going on
[20:22] <alechiko> edoceo: you have the 160gb drive or smaller solid state?
[20:23] <edoceo> 160
[20:23] <alechiko> hmm
[20:23] <alechiko> edoceo any experience with the smaller ones? I want to install the netbook edition.. im at the partitioning screen
[20:23] <xim_> for some reason evolution wont let me resize the side panel and its shrunk to where all the names of my folders just say ...  do i need to reinstall evolution?
[20:23] <erUSUL> !eeepc
[20:23] <Flannel> Ziber: You should also consider a migration timeline.  6.06 is only supported for another year and a half.  You can upgrade directly to 8.04 LTS
[20:23] <alechiko> Ive got 4gb and 16gb (flash), trying to decide where to install root partition in terms of performance
[20:24] <dhillon-v10> hi all I need some help getting the source of a package
[20:24] <twan_vd_p> Flannel, my excuse. Further on in the docs it sais "If you run an Ubuntu server, you should use the new server upgrade system."
[20:24] <edoceo> Well, my ubuntu (Karmic) only takes 2.4 GiB, so I have the WIndows and Karmic side by side (/dev/sda1 & /dev/sda2)
[20:24] <Flannel> twan_vd_p: right, this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades#Network%20Upgrade%20from%206.06%20for%20Ubuntu%20Servers%20(Recommended)
[20:24] <Cube_> in emacs, i'm trying to change the default font to PURITA, but it seems not to be getting it. i can change the font temporarily to PURITA if i use the dropdown menu though.
[20:24] <alechiko> oh i dont want windows
[20:24] <alechiko> but neither of the drives are true SSDs
[20:24] <alechiko> one is soldered on.. and the other is just a flash memory card
[20:25]  * twan_vd_p thanks Flannel and will RTFM
[20:25] <alechiko> but i dont know enough about the performance of either to know which is worthwhile installing the root parititon on
[20:25] <edoceo> Oh, I'd put root on the removable thing.
[20:25] <slestak> alechiko: how much space do you have on the flash/ssd/whatever?
[20:26] <slestak> alechiko: nm, i see you said 4Gb
[20:26] <dhillon-v10> guys can I get some help regarding use of dget
[20:26] <edoceo> I have a small soekris board that runs off of a CF plugged onto an IDE controller - but heavy usage of the thing concerns me.  So, I make a point of replacing yearly
[20:27] <erUSUL> dhillon-v10: what is dget ?
[20:27] <alechiko> root on the removable flash? its bigger so id like to keep that as my main installation partition
[20:27] <alechiko> but... not if it reads and writes much more slowly

[20:28] <erUSUL> dvinchi____: ?????
[20:28] <edoceo> alechiko: yes - put root on /16GiB, or you could put /root and /boot on the 4GiB and then put /home and /var on the 16GiB - so boot and root are on slow fast, big storage on big slow drive
[20:28] <edoceo> Maybe...
[20:28] <dhillon-v10> erUSUL: it is a software to get source file of a package
[20:28] <fbianconi> !es| dvinchi____
[20:28] <erUSUL> dhillon-v10: sudo apt-get source packagename ?
[20:28] <pranav> i have a problem...
[20:28] <mrbook1> Can someone be able to answer a newbie question
[20:28] <erUSUL> fbianconi: it was spam
[20:29] <thinkbinary> SAS
[20:29] <pranav> was tryin to get to install ubuntu... neeed help
[20:29] <dhillon-v10> yes we can do that but the point is to get the lastest relasase which is for karmic but I run Jaunty
[20:29] <pranav> see i have a comp with ubuntu on it....
[20:29] <erUSUL> dhillon-v10: the get it from the projects/program website ? as a tarball
[20:30] <pranav> but have another netbook... need to install in it
[20:30] <Astarot> hi
[20:30] <pranav> no cdrom, doesn't boot from USB, no cdrom
[20:30] <pyCube> hey.. i just installed jaunty to a second disk (first is an old redhat).. i didnt install any boot loader, but i have the existing old grub.. how can i boot tghe jaunty install on said second hd?
[20:30] <alechiko> edoceo what about the suggestions on the link u found for me about now having swap space.. i have 2gigs of ram.. i guess thats quite a lot for a small machine... so no swap partition?
[20:30] <erUSUL> pyCube: add an entry for it in the RH's grub
[20:30] <Ziber> how would i install the utf-8 locale?
[20:31] <dhillon-v10> that's a good idea but for some reason my mentor says it needs to be done that way
[20:31] <pranav> HELP!
[20:31] <pranav> pls
[20:31] <fbianconi> pranav: http://www.canonical.com/projects/ubuntu/unr
[20:31] <pyCube> erUSUL: i am trying, but cant quite get it.. i have the right device and all, but it keeps complaining about a bad file/path or seomthing
[20:31] <pranav> i've lost all my hair tryin to solve it
[20:31] <pyCube> its the kernal image lines i cant get right
[20:32] <erUSUL> pyCube: maybe  the name of the kernel or the initrd has a typo ?
[20:32] <pranav> k will check it out...
[20:32] <edoceo> alechiko: Hmm, I'm currently running w/o swap but I'm in the process of fixing this machine, so that's only temporary.  Maybe you can can make the 4Gib thing be /boot (128Mib), /root (2.5GiB) and the rest for swap (or something similar?)
[20:32] <erUSUL> pyCube: paste the menu.lst in a pastebin
[20:32] <erUSUL> !paste | pyCube
[20:32] <alechiko> hmm
[20:33] <edoceo> But that may limit room for /root and make you angry when it's fully (depending on software you install)
[20:33] <Ziber> how would i install the utf-8 locale?
[20:33] <alechiko> how much did u say ur base installation takes up? 2.5?
[20:33] <mrbook1> having trouble with ubuntu - no sound
[20:33] <erUSUL> Ziber: should be installed/generated by default even in dapper

[20:34] <Ziber> "please check..."
[20:34] <sirastin0> I'm SSH'd into an Ubuntu server that's on a Windows network. How do I get it to show the remote pc name?
[20:34] <Astarot> can i do something to fix it?
[20:34] <Ziber> perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:

[20:36] <twan_vd_p> Fannel, srry to bother again; I'm reading that the version of /etc/vim/vimrc seems edited by a script. Should I keep it, replace it ?

[20:37] <fbianconi> pranav: have you tried usb-creator? (don't know it's english name, but is under system/adminitration)
[20:38] <sebsebseb> hi
[20:38] <pranav> ya, but the booting doesn't occur via USB
[20:38] <erUSUL> Crosswing: ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox/
[20:38] <tuxxie> pranav maybe with pxe boot.
[20:38] <pranav> pxe boot?
[20:38] <trism> pranav: I would just rip out the hard drive, put it in an encloser and install to that
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> trism: i'd do that too
[20:39] <Crosswing> erUSUL, no such folder there, unfortunately.
[20:39] <pranav> hmm...
[20:39] <tjc> hello
[20:39] <pranav> i'll check out the pxr boot thing, since ii don like removing the hdd
[20:39] <pranav> *pxe
[20:40] <erUSUL> Crosswing: :1 in ~/.config/ ?
[20:40] <tuxxie> yes user pxe to netboot your image via tftp . I have not done it but it should work.
[20:41] <Crosswing> erUSUL, nope, it's not there either.
[20:41] <erUSUL> Crosswing: find ~/ -iname '*rhythm*' -print
[20:41] <pranav> thnx will check it out
[20:42] <tjc> i did an software update on jaunty and ran out of electric power, which caused my machine to shut down, i booted it up again and finished the installation with the recommended dpkg --configure -a, however ever since I'm unable to start up firefox. when i click on the icon it would hang for a bit ( or perform some operations in the background but it exists afterwards without bringing the firefox window up ) i think i also have the xulrunn
[20:42] <tjc> er1.9 gnome support broken because if the install, is there any way to restore these 2 packages?
[20:42] <Crosswing> erUSUL, that returned a few, going to inspect the results. Thanks. :)
[20:42] <erUSUL> Crosswing: no problem
[20:42] <tjc> when I try to start firefox from the console I'm seeing the 'Bus error' message
[20:42] <tjc> I would google the problem but I have no browser to do so now ;/
[20:43] <Flannel> tjc: try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[20:43] <Flannel> tjc: You have w3m! ;)
[20:43] <iceroot> what you recommend for viewing analog-tv?
[20:44] <erUSUL> !info xawtv
[20:44] <tjc> I did and got the "Setting up xulrunner-1.9-gnome-support (<IP_ADDRESS>+build2+nobinonly-0ubuntu<IP_ADDRESS>) ...", and again "Bus error..." script exited with status 135 during --configure ;/
[20:44] <iceroot> erUSUL: i will have a look
[20:44] <tjc> Flannel, I got lynx but didn't use it for a while now ;P
[20:46] <max> HI people
[20:47] <max> I have an ipod touch and want to use it with ubuntu
[20:47] <Guest21216> How can I do that pls
[20:47] <Guest21216> ??
[20:47] <erUSUL> !ipod | Guest21216
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> max: in what way?
[20:47] <sebsebseb> erUSUL: I thought about doing that
[20:47] <Guest21216> Yeah I tried that but it's too complicated Im new
[20:48] <Guest21216> can anyone help me pls
[20:48] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: I see hmm
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> Guest21216: well what do you want to do with the device?
[20:48] <Boondoklife> Is there a way to make unrar and other proc intesive apps run at a lower nice priority by default?
[20:48] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: yep it can be a bit tricky to configure hardware, espessially when new
[20:48] <Zzeiss> Is there a VM thing (kvm, virtualbox, Xen, whatever) that will allow me to boot a virtual machine on a real bootable partition?
[20:48] <Guest21216> yeah
[20:48] <tjc> I'd appreciate any other suggestions, I'm not this good with apt/dpkg I'm afraid ...
[20:49] <Zzeiss> So, for example, I could boot /dev/sda7 as a virtual machine, OR boot it for real?
[20:49] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: Virtualbox can do it and I think VMware as well,  however that's not usually recommended, and also probably a bit tricky to set up
[20:49] <Guest21216> can you help me then pls
[20:50] <Zzeiss> sebsebseb: OK, I took a look at VBox and it did not seem to want to do that.  Have you actually seen it working?
[20:50] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: Which Windows programs do you want to run?
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> Guest21216: what do you want to do with it?
[20:50] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: no, but  I  have been on webpages about it before
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> Guest21216: crappy iphones can be used as many things in linux
[20:50] <Guest21216> > <ActionParsnip> just want to use it as normal
[20:50] <pj> Hi everyone, just got the kernel update for gutsy, but the update manager is saying the packages are "NOT AUTHENTICATED".  Are they safe?
[20:50] <Guest21216> sync it and all
[20:50] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: heh
[20:50] <tjc> would it be of any help if I tried to downgrade to the xulrunner 1.9 for example ? I looked at what synaptic tells me and it seems that I have xulrunner1.9 and 1.9.1 installed on my system....
[20:50] <Zzeiss> sebsebseb:  Actually, application 1 is "Ubuntu Studio".  App2 is WinXP (I have several legit licenses for it)
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> Guest21216: they can be modems, usb harddrives, mp3 players...what?
[20:51] <Guest21216> OK people
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: i hate apple rubbish
[20:51] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: ok why not  virtual machine XP normalley then? and  so with  it not using your psycial install
[20:51] <Zzeiss> sebsebseb: ... and sadly, WINE is not cooperating in letting me run Steam / Portal / Team Fortress
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> Guest21216: ok do you want to load your mp3s onto it?
[20:51] <Guest21216> I have an ipod touch and want to be able to use it on Ubuntu like I used to be able to use it on Windows
[20:52] <Zzeiss> sebsebseb: Because, for Ubuntu Studio, I *do* want to be able to switch over and use it natively.  This is so I can test and config it before I hose my machine!
[20:52] <erUSUL> !appdb | Zzeiss
[20:52] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: yeah  Apple like Microsoft don't support Linux hmm
[20:52] <ActionParsnip> Guest21216: if you install banshee or amarok you can oad it with mp3s. you wont tell me what you want to use it as so I can only guess
[20:52] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: Ubuntu Studio is your host OS?
[20:52] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: no, just low quality products
[20:53] <ActionParsnip> s/oad/load
 oki How can I do that???
[20:53] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: well loads fo people think they are really good,  espessially, because of the high price tags
[20:53] <Guest21216> I've got banshee
[20:53] <Zzeiss> sebsebseb: Nope- Ubuntu 9.04 is the host right now; Ubuntu Studio will be the guest.  That is, until I have UStudio verified as right on target.
[20:53] <Guest21216> teach me how to do it pls
[20:53] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: its a 50cc engine in a ferarri body, looks great, runs bad
[20:53] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: Touch can be a bit of a problem in  Ubuntu,  I think standard Ipod is probably easier to get working
[20:53] <ActionParsnip> Guest21216: its a standard app in synaptic
[20:53] <Zzeiss> sebsebseb: the alternative is to switch hard drives over and over...
[20:53] <rai> hi everyone...i have problem with m y kopete..it open but i can not connect to my messenger
[20:54] <rai> can u helpp me
[20:54] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: heh
[20:54] <Guest21216> Oki I have Banshee installed and then??????
[20:54] <ActionParsnip> Guest21216: load banshee and connect your device
[20:55] <Guest21216> how to connect it???
[20:55] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: Oh I see I guess you don't reolize that you can  install the  studio stuff into a standard Ubuntu install
[20:55] <ActionParsnip> Guest21216: usb
[20:55] <Guest21216> oki hang on
[20:55] <Zzeiss> sebsebseb: Oh, yes.  I found that.  But the "tweaks" are what i want as well; things like the combined status/windowbar at the top...
[20:55] <sebsebseb> !studio
[20:56] <rai> help please for kopete
[20:56] <Zzeiss> In fact, that would be worth having by itself.... how *does* one do that?
[20:56] <Guest21216> connected! and now???
[20:56] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: also it's Windows you should be virtual maching the standard way, rather than trying to use a psyical install of it in a virtual machine program, by the way
[20:56] <erUSUL> rai: maybe more help in #kubuntu
[20:57] <rai> k i try
[20:57] <Guest21216> ActionParsnip>connected!!
[20:58] <speedmccoy> Ausie! Ausie! Ausie!
[20:58] <benc> when I try to update modules I'm getting: Some of the packages could not be retrieved from the server(s). Do you want to continue, ignoring these packages?
[20:58] <benc> what can I do?
[20:58] <Boondoklife> Zzeiss: I tried a while back to do the same thing and do remember coming across a page that talked about it. You are going to run into an issue when you try to boot the partition if it is an actual system installation. I think there was a way to do ti but it requied vmware to boot a special boot disk etc.
[20:58] <guntbert> speedmccoy:  do you have an ubuntu support question?
[20:58] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: Windows is usauly an insecure host  OS when installed  and connected to the Internet,  even  if it's the install of someone that thinks they know how to secure it properly,   truth is most people don't really know,  hence why they  think they need antivirus and antispyware,  which sure they do need really when they don't know how to secure it properly enough without the need for
[20:58] <Guest21216> ActionParsnip>
[20:58] <Guest21216> are you there?? ActionParsnip>
[20:59] <Boondoklife> Zzeiss: If I understand what you are wanting to do correctly.
[20:59] <Fragsworth> When I mousewheel while the pointer is over a divide in Pidgin, it switches workspaces
[20:59] <xxex> can i remove grub and install lilo
[20:59] <Zzeiss> sebsebseb: yeah, I know.  My solution to the XP insecurity problem is an external hardware firewall with "refuse all" turned on.
[20:59] <Fragsworth> Can anyone else verify this?
[20:59] <guntbert> benc: what packages could not be retrieved?
[20:59] <Guest21216> ActionParsnip> can u help me pls??
[20:59] <erUSUL> Boondoklife: try another mirror ?
[21:00] <Slart> Fragsworth: what is "a divide"?
[21:00] <Zzeiss> sebsebseb: The only thing that XP virtual machine will ever run is Steam.  Thats it.

[21:00] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: you can do a dynamically expanding Windows install in Virtualbox,   and  select a size  that the vm thinks it has,  then  it can acstauly become that size also, as long as your partition has enough psyical space
[21:01] <Slart> Fragsworth: in the main pidgin window? or in a message dialog?
[21:01] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: where as the other option fixed storage is not so good, because the size you put,  is the amount of size the vm will acstaully take up
[21:01] <Fragsworth> Slart: In a message dialog
[21:01] <Fragsworth> Slart: Normally you can resize over these "divides"
[21:01] <Zzeiss> sebsebseb: Yes, i know about that.
[21:01] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: as for the security thing,   I  have an interesting solution, but  I don't want to support Windows right now :)  plus this isn't the channal for that anyway :D
[21:01] <benc> guntbert: XUL something
[21:01] <pranav> i tried pxe it is a little complicated, + requires an alternate download of the ubuntu cd, which is difficult for me since my net connection is not very fast
[21:01] <benc> guntbert: and now my FF doesn't launch
[21:01] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: Why only steam in a vm?  I have heard that Steam will work in Wine
[21:02] <Guest21216> ActionParsnip> can u help me please?????
[21:02] <bro>  hi. i reinstalled my proprietary ati driver on ubuntu 9.04 and now xserver won't start. i booted from a kubuntu 6.06 live cd. is there any way to reconfigure/uninstall the fglrx driver?
[21:02] <pranav>  k there is this sad problem, i have an old laptop in which i need to put ubuntu.....
[21:02] <pranav> it doesn't have a working cdrom
[21:02] <pranav> and doesn't boot from a usb
[21:02] <pranav> is there anythin that can be done??
[21:02] <pranav> i was thinkin of a way, mayb like using my pc cdrom,  to be used as the booting device for the laptop...
[21:02] <pranav> any way of doin this?
[21:02] <FloodBot3> pranav: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:02] <sebsebseb> bro: yeah ATI gets problems with 9.04
[21:02] <Guest21216> How can I use my ipod touch with Banshee????
[21:02] <Zzeiss> sebsebseb: The hassle is the video card.  Ive had loads of problems trying to get a VM to see an Nvidia accel card.  And the NV blob driver is a piece of ****.  I essentially have no confidence that it will work on any particular install.
[21:02] <Slart> Fragsworth: ah.. yes.. it does the same for me.. I'm guessing the pidgin window doesn't "catch" the mouse scroll wheel even.. so then gnome/compiz will act on it instead and do just what it does when you use the scroll wheel on the empty desktop
[21:03] <pranav> k there is this sad problem, i have an old laptop in which i need to put ubuntu.....
[21:03] <pranav>  it doesn't have a working cdrom
[21:03] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: I see
[21:03] <Fragsworth> Slart: Interesting bug :)
[21:03] <guntbert> benc: xulrunner belongs to FF, the first thing that comes to my mind is: your update server is not reliably reachable - try to choose another one
[21:03] <pranav> and doesn't boot from a usb
[21:03] <pranav> is there anythin that can be done??
[21:03] <Slart> Fragsworth: same thing happens between the buttons in the message dialog
[21:03] <RastaSheep> i have one question about update of ubuntu .. is posible to update mt ubuntu 8.4 without downloading new image file ?
[21:03] <Zzeiss> In fact, I do not use it unless I ******* have to for a game.  Why oh why can't those guys at ATI and NV release the specifications?
[21:03] <Guest21216> Can someone help me please???
[21:03] <sebsebseb> Zzeiss: you did the stars,  but it still counts as something,  you should try and watch your language a bit here :D
[21:03] <pranav>  i was thinkin of a way, mayb like using my pc cdrom,  to be used as the booting device for the laptop...
[21:03] <pranav> any way of doin this?
[21:04] <PeakerWork> hi. My dad connects an external USB drive.  Its device (/dev/sdf1) appears. An icon appears for it on the desktop - but he can't double click it.    manual    mount   of sdf1 works, but clicking the icon fails to do anything
[21:04] <DigitalKiwi> sebsebseb: connotation!
[21:04] <Slart> RastaSheep: update to 9.04/9.10/8.10?
[21:04] <RastaSheep> i have one question about update of ubuntu .. is posible to update my ubuntu 8.4 without downloading new image file ?
[21:04] <pranav> ??
[21:04] <RastaSheep> yeah
[21:04] <sebsebseb> !language |   Zzeiss
[21:04] <sebsebseb> DigitalKiwi: uhmm?
[21:04] <Zzeiss> sebsebseb: yeah, I just find it extremely frustrating, especially on laptops where you have no choice of video cards.
[21:04] <guntbert> !upgrade | RastaSheep
[21:04] <PeakerWork> why would double-clicking the icon representing an external hard drive fail to do anything, but "sudo mount" will work?
[21:04] <J3ny> hey guys how can I connect with other networks?
[21:04] <Slart> RastaSheep: please don't spam your question just because noone answered in the 60 seconds you managed to wait
[21:04] <erUSUL> RastaSheep: yes
[21:05] <erUSUL> !upgrade | RastaSheep
[21:05] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: hmm
[21:05] <DigitalKiwi> do people get antzy when you say "heck" instead of alternatives? usually not, it's all about connotation

[21:05] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: did you connect the device with USB?
[21:05] <pranav> ya, but never worked

[21:05] <Zzeiss> hmmmm... how does someone _add_ a panel, if one has deleted it?
[21:06] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: I don't know, because fortunatly I don't tend to buy  hardware  that   does not have  offical Linux  support from the manufactures that made them
[21:06] <Slart> Zzeiss: right click on another panel.. select new panel
[21:06] <heogen> ikonia, are you there?
[21:06] <erUSUL> Zzeiss: right click on the other panel
[21:06] <Slart> Zzeiss: you won't get the panel back.. you'll have to create it again
[21:06] <erUSUL> !resetpanel | Zzeiss anothe option is
[21:06] <vigo> erUSUL: What upgrade are you looking for? system,kernel or update?
[21:06] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: I could look at the page though, to see if I know what your meant to do or not
[21:06] <Guest21216> OH for god sake's no one knows!!??
[21:06] <Zzeiss> Hmmm... but there's no open space on this panel.  Uh-oh...
[21:07] <erUSUL> vigo: none i was helping someone thanks
[21:07] <Zzeiss> Oh, I can get one with the separators.  OK.  No problem.

[21:07] <bro>  hi. i reinstalled my proprietary ati driver on ubuntu 9.04 and now xserver won't start. i booted from a kubuntu 6.06 live cd. is there any way to reconfigure/uninstall the fglrx driver?
[21:07] <Guest36631> make; make install; echo "rt2870sta" >>/etc/modules
[21:07] <Guest36631>  does this make any sence to anyone
[21:07] <PeakerWork> this channel is too big, it needs to be split?
[21:07] <sebsebseb> bro: where did you get the ATI driver from?
[21:07] <Slart> Guest36631: yes
[21:07] <Flannel> PeakerWork: No
[21:08] <erUSUL> Guest36631: seems a recipe to compile and intall a kernel driver
[21:08] <bro> sebsebseb: i installed it using the hardware manager
[21:08] <arvind_khadri> erUSUL, sorry dint see that you had sent it
[21:08] <sebsebseb> bro: ok good
[21:08] <Zzeiss> Oh, I've got the Touch working decently (modulo annoyance at the video chipset).  But try and find a fast machine that doesn't have a non-Intel video chipset these days.
[21:08] <Slart> PeakerWork: it's fine.. as long as people keep the offtopic chat in #ubuntu-offtopic... such as petitions to split the channel
[21:08] <SnakDoc> whats command to restore a .config file
[21:08] <erUSUL> arvind_khadri: no problem
[21:08] <sebsebseb> bro: if you get it from outside the repo you can get problems
[21:08] <tjc> Flannel, thanks for your help, with w3m i got opera and with opere I got to this post : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1026086
 Yeah!! Thanks a but to late to be judgemental
[21:08] <Guest36631> ok because latst time someone said something about the rt2870... >>/etc/modules
[21:08] <Guest36631> just wanted to make sure
[21:08] <tjc> the solution with sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq worked for me so perhaps it would be of help to others ;)
[21:08] <sebsebseb> bro: I have heard that ATI cards  get problems with 9.04
[21:08] <SnakDoc> whats command to restore a .config file want to delete current and start with original again
[21:09] <DefineByte> Is there a recommened way to check an NTFS drive in Ubuntu?
[21:09] <zebastian> Help, i tried changing changing my ATI driver and it didn't work, nothing will load after the splash screen, i tried going back to vesa but x won't load a screen can someone help me
[21:09] <lomez> !fsck DefineByte
[21:09] <sebsebseb> Guest36631: if you can't get it working in Banshee or whatever, with enough RAM you can try a Windows virtual machine
[21:09] <erUSUL> SnakDoc: which config file ?
[21:09] <zebastian> i am on shell mode
[21:09] <SnakDoc> erUSUL samba
[21:09] <Slart> DefineByte: I don't think there is a ntfs fsck in linux/ubuntu
[21:09] <erUSUL> Zzeiss: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg'
[21:09] <sebsebseb> bro: Did it ever work?
[21:09] <arvind_khadri> DefineByte, no not really, fsck.ntfs marks it clean.. if there is a fault
[21:09] <bro> sebsebseb: i had the driver from ati site installed, but it was tearing with compiz, so i uninstalled it and installed the one in the hardware manager. after boot my xserver was messed up
[21:09] <DefineByte> lomez: when I run fsck I get fsck 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009) fsck: fsck.ntfs: not found fsck: Error 2 while executing fsck.ntfs for /dev/sdb1
[21:10] <Guest36631> ok well im going to install it then message u guys back if i have probs
[21:10] <sebsebseb> bro: I see
[21:10] <erUSUL> DefineByte: Slart the closest thing is ntfsfix fro ntfsprogs
[21:10] <erUSUL> from*
[21:10] <Slart> DefineByte: you'll have to find some way of booting windows.. not sure if freedos can do it but it might be worth it to take a look
[21:10] <Zzeiss> hmmm... is there any way to move (or copy) a menu from the toplevel over into "Applications"  (I'm trying to open up space in the menu bar.
[21:10] <sebsebseb> bro: yeah as I was saying if you get them from outside the repo,  problems
[21:10] <erUSUL> SnakDoc: you can purge samba and reinstall it
[21:10] <sebsebseb> bro: if you get outside the repo you can expect problems
[21:10] <DefineByte> arvind_khadri: ok, thanks.
[21:10] <Zzeiss> erUSUL: What's that dpkg supposed to fix?
[21:10] <sebsebseb> bro: you need to  reconfigure xorg I think and re install  the driver from the  hardware manager
[21:10] <DefineByte> erUSUL: is that safe? does it work ok?
[21:10] <Guest21216> OK CAN ANYONE HELP ME PLS
[21:10] <SnakDoc> erUSUL tried and it didn't restore original file
[21:10] <erUSUL> Zzeiss: you can add a windows style single menu to the panel and then remove the other
[21:10] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: I have been trying to help you a bit
 no you havent
[21:11] <sebsebseb> !caps |  Guest21216
[21:11] <Slart> Guest36631: yes.. under the TAB key.. there's usually a light that goes with it.. called CAPS usually
[21:11] <arvind_khadri> !caps | Guest21216
[21:11] <zebastian> I can't afford to lose all my files, if i have to get an external hard drive and then somehow copy all into it i'd be willing to but i can't afford a clean reinstall
[21:11] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: I suggested a virtual machine if you coudn't get it working in Banshee, that's helping
[21:11] <zebastian> i need to get the gui back
[21:11] <cowgarden> why do I get unusable free disk space where I can make no partition when I resize my NTFS partiton? (sry, no ubuntu, but still gparted I think and I couldn't find any help elsewhere)
[21:11] <bro> sebsebseb: i cannot get to command prompt in ubuntu, ctrl+alt+f1 doesn't work
 how??
[21:11] <erUSUL> DefineByte: it is safe but it only works on non damaged paritions
[21:11] <sebsebseb> bro: and you can't  log into it at all?
[21:11] <herenbdy> hello, how can I download a specific version of a package? a libc6 update borked x11 :(
[21:12] <Guest36631> ??
[21:12] <DefineByte> Slart: OK, thanks. I think I've got a USB stick with FreeDOS on it somewhere.
[21:12] <Slart> cowgarden: never had free space being unusable.. unless it's to small for a partition
[21:12] <Guest36631> what about caps
[21:12] <DefineByte> erUSUL: the partition is OK I think. Ubuntu mounts it with no problems.
[21:12] <sebsebseb> Guest36631:  if your here at the right time, ther will be someone that  can help properly with your Touch
[21:12] <sebsebseb> !patience |  Guest36631
[21:12] <Slart> DefineByte: it it's an external drive you might be able to use a vm and do the scandisk thing from there.. you'll still have to install windows in the vm though
[21:12] <cowgarden> Slart, 12000MB should be enough...
[21:12] <erUSUL> DefineByte: so why you need a checker ?
[21:12] <Guest21216> how?/
[21:12] <bro> sebsebseb: the system boots, but when it loads the desktop it's all messed up. i'd try to reconfigure xserver-xorg but i can't get to the shell
[21:13] <sebsebseb> !attitude |  Guest21216
[21:13] <lomez> DefineByte, I would try a windows PE for NTFS drives
[21:13] <Slart> cowgarden: oh.. sure.. that's plenty.. I was thinking more in the range of < 50MB
well yeah, u don t reply to me
[21:13] <DefineByte> erUSUL: because I'm getting constant disk activity in Windows, with the computer constantly freezing.
[21:13] <Um_cara_qualquer> excuse me... can someone help me install "SDL_mixer 1.2" ?
[21:13] <DefineByte> lomez: I'll see what I can find.
[21:13] <zebastian> Some guy here got me to write a bunch of commands into the terminal to change my ATI driver as my laptop was getting stuck whenever i played movies, that didn't work, i reboot on low graphics mode and then he tried to reset back to default, nothing will come up now after the splash screen, i tried going back to vesa but x won't load a screen, i need help
[21:13] <sebsebseb> bro: ok no problem  use recovery mode
[21:14] <cowgarden> Slart, it's not windows, but I'll try a restart
 what's your problem?
[21:14] <lomez> DefineByte, bart-pe is the default one, easy to find.
[21:14] <sebsebseb> bro: from the Grub boot loader go into recovery mode and do xfix,  that should reset  xorg
[21:14] <bro> sebsebseb: can you tell me how? i didn't use recovery untill now
 Hi. I want to use my ipod touch on ubuntu
[21:14] <erUSUL> zebastian: boot into recovery mode and choose repair X
[21:14] <zebastian> i'm on another laptop now, my laptop is on cli mode
[21:14] <zebastian> yes
[21:14] <zebastian> erUSUL
[21:14] <zebastian> i did, i tried that adn it didn't work
[21:14] <erUSUL> zebastian: if you are on terminal do 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg'
[21:14] <zebastian> x wont load a screen
[21:15] <erUSUL> zebastian: then reboot
[21:15] <DefineByte> lomez: thanks. I looked into UltimateBootCD too, but it won't boot of USB and I don't have a CD-ROM. x) Bart-PE should fit the bill
[21:15] <sebsebseb> bro: you have the Grub boot loader?
[21:15] <sebsebseb> bro: sure you do,  it just might not be appearing on your screen for long before Ubuntu boots up
 so??
[21:15] <lomez> DefineByte, i dont know how good bart-pe support is on usb, but good luck
[21:16] <OlySoft-Dave> good morning, afternoon, evening, Ubunteros
[21:16] <sebsebseb> bro: there should be an option  on it for recovery mode
[21:16] <DefineByte> lomez: Thank you. It seems it might be potluck if it works. >.<
[21:16] <SnakDoc> erUSUL any other ideas ?
[21:16] <Um_cara_qualquer> anyone knows how to install "SDL_mixer 1.2"
[21:16] <bro> sebsebseb: i might have done something whrong, but i know i set the timeout to 0 in grub.lst
[21:17] <sebsebseb> bro: I see uhmm
[21:17] <yitz_> Where is the toolbar settings stored?

[21:17] <sjokkis> hi. how do i unpack a .bin file? i've googled this problem, but all the posts i found about it were from people who were told how to execute the file. i actually do need to unpack it. any ideas?
[21:17] <sebsebseb> bro: I think you can press esc  on it, to stop the time out
[21:17] <sebsebseb> bro: If not, you got the Live CD still?
[21:17] <erUSUL> SnakDoc: nope sorry
[21:17] <bro> sebsebseb: and there's a recovery option ?
[21:18] <zebastian> erUSUL, just rebooted, the screen won't load after splash though, i see like four and a half little blurry pixelated splash ubuntu's and then it will black out two times and then it will get stuck, still not loading a screen
[21:18] <bro> sebsebseb: ies, but it's a kubuntu 6.06
[21:18] <Spkr2Cmputrs_> I just did a scan on my port 44400,and it says it's filtered.  how would I get more info on this?   Have you tried using the "file" command from a terminal?  I will look at the file contents and try to figure out what it really is.
[21:18] <sebsebseb> bro: well if you have access to your partition,  I can't remember how exactly on the Live CD, you could run  commands for your install
[21:18] <sebsebseb> bro: ,but you can also  access the menu.lst on your partition and change it so there is a timeout
[21:18] <arand> sjokkis: I don't think it's possible, if it's built-in to the binary there should be some --flag to do it (maybe --help would give info?)
[21:18] <zebastian> erUSUL i'll reboot and go back on recovery mode and cli
[21:18] <bro> sebsebseb: that's what i'm trying to do now, but i don't know how to get root on konqueror [file manager]
[21:18] <sjokkis> arand: it's an image for flashing a router
[21:19] <lomez> Guest21216, what is your problem?
[21:19] <sjokkis> i mean OlySoft-Dave
[21:19] <sebsebseb> bro: well  you only really need root for that one file
[21:19] <Guest21216> lomez> HI
[21:19] <sjokkis> perhaps mounting it is the way to go?
[21:19] <bro> sebsebseb: something like gksudo nautilus, but for konqueror
[21:19] <sebsebseb> bro: I think it's as simple as mounting the partition and then
[21:19] <lomez> !ask Guest21216
[21:19] <guntbert> Guest21216: please realize that the people here are volunteers - and not every question has a satisfactory answer
[21:19] <Guest21216> lomez> I just want to use my ipod touch on Ubuntu, that s all
[21:19] <OlySoft-Dave> sjokkis: then it's not something you unpack.  You need to access the admin functions of the device so it grabs the image and does it's magick with it.
[21:19] <arand> sjokkis: where from?
[21:19] <Slart> sjokkis: the bin extension only tells you that whoever created the file thought it was a binary file..  if it's a flash rom image you probably need a specific utility app to do stuff with it
[21:19] <sebsebseb> bro: gksudo kate  /media/disk1/boot/grub/menu.lst or something like that
[21:20] <lomez> Guest21216, sorry, i dont understand what you mean. install ubuntu on your itouch?
[21:20] <SnakDoc> erUSUL i got it had to go to root of problem samba-common after that it was fixed
[21:20] <sebsebseb> lomez: no he wants his Ipod Touch to work in Ubuntu
[21:20] <sjokkis> arand: openwrt.org
[21:20] <Guest21216> lomez> NO, just use my ipod touch on ubuntu
[21:20] <lomez> ah. Guest21216, what are you using to connect to it
[21:20] <xiong> backup software suggestions? there are many choices -- i prefer GUI
[21:21] <Guest21216> usb, but can use anything else if it works  and if you teach me
[21:21] <cowgarden> Slart, [[hda1][hda2][free space][hda3]] seems to be a problem
[21:21] <lomez> Guest21216, i mean what program?
[21:21] <Guest21216> banshee
[21:21] <arand> sjokkis: and which file?
[21:21] <Guest21216> lomez>banshee
[21:21] <OlySoft-Dave> xiong: heh, I am looking at that myself this weekend.  Lost yet another install with no backup...this time due to a raid failure.
[21:21] <Slart> cowgarden: huh? it doesn't want to create a new partition in that space?
[21:22] <zebastian> erUSUL, what do i do now?  i have about 40 min to decide if i should go out and buy an external hard drive to somehow copy all my files from CLI onto it
[21:22] <zebastian> and then reinstall
[21:22] <cowgarden> Slart, yes, as I said it claims the free space "unusable" and gives me no options for it at all
[21:22] <Boondoklife> question: powertop is telling me to add something to the kernel command line in grub conf, is this the line in the menu.lst that has splash ro after the kernel?
[21:22] <sjokkis> arand: how is it relevant? it's an image for flashing openwrt onto a router. i just need some default config files
[21:22] <sebsebseb> zebastian: your in recovery mode?  you want to fix ATI?
[21:22] <sjokkis> but i can do an svn checkout instead, so it's cool. thanks tho
[21:22] <Heikki123> Hello
[21:22] <g00se> In the live configs, what is the root password?
[21:22] <zebastian> sebsebseb, yes i am on recovery mode, i tried changing ati and it didn't work now x wont load a screen even after trying to go back to vesa
[21:23] <cowgarden> Slart, [[hda1][free space][hda2][hda3]] no better like this, thought that was the problem (read in a forum)
[21:23] <zebastian> i tried the xfix from recovery mode
[21:23] <sebsebseb> zebastian: yeah bro has a similar issue
[21:23] <Slart> cowgarden: I don't really have an empty drive to try this on.. so I can't really verify that it's a general problem with that configuration and not just gparted that is acting up.. but gparted doesn't usually act up..
[21:23] <Guest21216> lomez> so?
[21:23] <sebsebseb> zebastian: ok you did xfix and what happended?
[21:23] <zvacet> sebsebseb : kdesudo kate/path /to/file
[21:23] <zebastian> nothing
[21:23] <zebastian> i rebooted
[21:23] <Heikki123> i got a stupid question: how do i get amarok to open a file? From the menu when i try to open something, nothing happens... also from ubuntu's file manager when i right click and select "open with amarok", nothing happens, no playing, no error messages....
[21:23] <sebsebseb> zvacet: say that to bro
[21:23] <arand> sjokkis: since all images there seems to be in .img format... not .bin ...
[21:24] <zvacet> sebsebseb : sorry
[21:24] <zebastian> then the same
[21:24] <sebsebseb> zvacet: oh yeah I said gksudo to him didn't I hmm
[21:24] <zebastian> nothing after splash
[21:24] <guntbert> !root | g00se
[21:24] <zvacet> bro :  kdesudo kate/path /to/file
[21:24] <Guest21216> lomez>
[21:25] <g00se> sudo x ---- 'user goose is not in the sudoers group'
[21:25] <lomez> Guest21216, sorry, i dont know about banshee, i only use amarok and rhythombox
[21:25] <zebastian> right now i am on the cli, after loggin in recovery mode
[21:25] <xiong> what must i back up in order to be able, at need, to perform a full restore after the most extreme disaster? -- /home of course but what else? -- no need to back up all the downloaded software but i want a straightforward way to redownload it all
[21:25] <bro> zvacet, sebsebseb, only kdesu seems to work on 6.06, but for some reason it won't get to my sda6 partition, even if i can browse it in file manager
[21:25] <sebsebseb> zvacet: well thanks I forgot that  Kubuntu has it's own thing as well
[21:25] <Heikki123> It seems my amarok don't accept mp3-files.. wav plays ok... how do i enable mp3 in amarok
[21:25] <Guest21216> oki amarok then
[21:25] <sebsebseb> zvacet: he wants to edit his  /boot/grub/menu.lst file
[21:26] <sebsebseb> zvacet: put a timeout back on it, so he can go into  recovery mode and hopefuly fix xorg,  in fact maybe you know of a better way? he is on the Live CD
[21:26] <guntbert> g00se: did you say live CD?
[21:26] <lomez> Heikki123, you need to install th restricted codecs as amarok cannot package them togeher legally
[21:26] <OlySoft-Dave> xiong: there is a log file, I believe it's install.log, that keeps track of all packages you have installed.  A copy of that would enable you to quickly reinstall them after recovery.
[21:26] <Heikki123> oh sorry, forgot to mention: i'm running the 9.10 alpha
[21:26] <g00se> guntbert: Yep - i'm running in live mode
[21:26] <cowgarden> Slart, yea, usually gparted is a really lovely program :)
[21:26] <Heikki123> lomez: ok thanks
[21:26] <sebsebseb> !9.10 |  Heikki123
[21:27] <zvacet> bro : kdesu kate /boot/grub/menu.lst
[21:27] <lomez> Guest21216, install amarok and see if your itouch is recognized automatically. it should be
[21:27] <Heikki123> oh, yes i know 9.10 is not released and it is only alpha and might break some things
[21:28] <Guest21216> Oki installed and started
[21:28] <sebsebseb> Heikki123: well your not meant to get support for it in here
[21:28] <Heikki123> sebsebseb: ok, sorry :)
[21:28] <Guest21216> What do I do now??
[21:28] <guntbert> g00se: in live CD the "main" user is ubuntu, for that one sudo works without password
[21:28] <zebastian> i can't lose all my files to a clean reinstall
[21:28] <cowgarden> Slart, i still can occupie the space by extending the formerly shrinked partition
[21:28] <dan> hey, how can I tell on the command line whether I'm running ubuntu desktop or ubuntu server on a box?
[21:28] <zebastian> but i need to be able to load the gui
[21:28] <bro> zvacet: it's blank, doesn't exist. i think, because i'm on live cd, i have to give the whole path /media/... but it doesn't get into my sda6 partition enev if it's already mounted
[21:28] <sebsebseb> zebastian: ok so xfix didn't work?
[21:28] <zebastian> is there a way i could copy all of /usr to an external drive? if i plugged one
[21:29] <sebsebseb> bro: yes you do
[21:29] <zebastian> sebsebseb no
[21:29] <sebsebseb> bro: it might be /mnt something
[21:29] <g00se> guntbert: OK. I added user 'goose'. Is there a password for ubuntu?
[21:29] <OlySoft-Dave> Zebastian: question, did you manually install video drivers or did you use the automated system to download/install them?
[21:29] <sebsebseb> bro: check media also to make sure your  calling it the right thing in the command
[21:29] <guntbert> dan: lsb_release -a tells you a lot
 so??
[21:30] <sebsebseb> zebastian: ok  ATI graphics cards are known to have problems with  9.04
[21:30] <froglet> does anyone know if it is possible to reinstall Ubuntu without reformatting /home if I am using encrypted home directories (ecryptfs)?
[21:30] <sebsebseb> zebastian: I missed some of your issue, so can you quickly repeate it for me?
[21:30] <bro> sebsebseb: i browsed to the file, copied the path and pasted in terminal
[21:30] <dan> guntbert, doesn't say anything different for that it looks like
[21:30] <guntbert> g00se: no, in the live CD "ubuntu" has no password
[21:30] <dan> guntbert, I think that just lists what's in /etc/lsb-release
[21:30] <PeakerWork> damn, NTFS support in Ubuntu sucks :(   You have to drop into a terminal and "sudo" mount it manually! :(
[21:31] <bro> sebsebseb: it's /media/sda6/boot/grub/menu.lst for me but it turns a blank file
[21:31] <sebsebseb> PeakerWork: that's not right
[21:31] <zebastian> OlySoft-Dave, i had  used the original system, i had gotten the proprietory drivers, but my computer ketp getting stuck when i would play a movie, namely a large avi file, so these two guys here, actionparsnip and digitaldarkness told me to go to ati/amd and get the drive for my laptop
[21:31] <PeakerWork> the double-click-media-icon fails on external NTFS drives
[21:31] <sebsebseb> PeakerWork: it should just work
[21:31] <sebsebseb> PeakerWork: as long as Windows shut down the partition properly
[21:31] <OlySoft-Dave> zebastian: you can easily copy files to an external drive.  If it is not auto-detected and mounted in /media then you would need to mount it yourself by finding it in /dev.  But you can certainly do it.
[21:31] <PeakerWork> sebsebseb: well, ntfs-3g refuses to mount stuff as a normal user
[21:31] <froglet> I did this on one machine and I was unable to access my $HOME and so I had to reinstall again and format everything
[21:31] <sebsebseb> PeakerWork: oh
[21:31] <zebastian> i tried that but it didnt work, for some reason the driver for my laptop radeon 3200 was the one for 64 bit and not for 32 bit despite it being under 32 bit
[21:31] <sebsebseb> PeakerWork: well I haven't had problems
[21:31] <xjih78> hello
[21:32] <PeakerWork> sebsebseb: its saying "external FUSE support is insecure" or something like that when used from the shell (and I had to manually create /etc/fstab entry too!)
[21:32] <zebastian> so i tried going back and it didn't work, tried recovery mode xfix and ti didnt work, tried changing back to vesa
[21:32] <xjih78> in what package does the hg command dwell?
[21:32] <zebastian> didn't work
[21:32] <m0r0n> Is there an alternative to Pidgin?
[21:32] <Doc-Saintly> Can anyone recommend a cheap card to play high def in ubuntu with audio through hdmi?
[21:32] <sebsebseb> zebastian: so you tried to install a 64bit driver on a 32bit Ubuntu?
[21:32] <naDi> hey ,  installed the restriced drivers, also flash via synaptic , nonfree as well and i still cant seem to watch ths video (flash) from this site : http://www.mylifetime.com/on-tv/shows/project-runway/full-episodes/video/full-episode-4-what-a-woman-wants
[21:32] <froglet> m0r0n yes several
[21:32] <arand> m0r0n: empathy, amsn, mirc in wine...?
[21:32] <conner> Nvidia Geforce 8200
[21:32] <zebastian> apparently, when i went to the ati drivers site, it was listed as 32 bit
[21:32] <conner> cheap
[21:32] <zebastian> but then it turned out to be a misnomer or something
[21:32] <OlySoft-Dave> Zebastian: once you install the driver from ATI you have installed a DKMS module.  It's a bad idea in the future.  There is a way to kill it though.
[21:32] <guntbert> dan: right you are :-), try uname -a then
[21:33] <addisonj> i am having a problem with my sound cards, running a hp workstation, which has a full range built in speaker, it is currently the default, trying to change it to the other sound card, not working how i wants it too
[21:33] <sebsebseb> zebastian: ok this is something else,  DO NOT!  Get drivers for graphic cards for Ubuntu from their offical sites,  or  expect problems, always  get from repo
[21:33] <sebsebseb> zebastian: only from a site as a last resort
[21:33] <vasser> hello
[21:33] <zebastian> sebsebseb i had already gotten it from the repos
[21:33] <zebastian> it was these two guys
[21:33] <zebastian> on here
[21:33] <sebsebseb> zebastian: uh?
[21:33] <Guest21216> I can'r believe no one knows how to use an ipod touch or iphone on Ubuntu!!!!!!
[21:34] <vasser> where does ubuntu store the Sharing information ? (all the folders that are shared)
[21:34] <zebastian> actionparsnip and digitaldarkness
[21:34] <Doc-Saintly> Guest21216: go back to mac
[21:34] <clearscreen> pranav: does it have a floppy drive? :P
[21:34] <zebastian> that told me to get it from there
[21:34] <Pirate_Hunter> can anyone help, the pund sign (£) on the keyboard doesnt register with sudo, is there a fix?
[21:34] <clearscreen> pranav: my bad, way too late :)
[21:34] <sebsebseb> zebastian: and maybe if you haven't got  rid of the repo one and then install one from the site,  problems,  espeailly if it's for the wrong archetecture
[21:34] <pitput> W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net jaunty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 5A9BF3BB4E5E17B5
[21:34] <naDi> can, this install of OS, let me watch movies on mylifetime.com?
[21:34] <pitput> what does that mean?
[21:34] <Slart> Guest21216: afaik it isn't possible..
[21:34] <sebsebseb> zebastian: what happended to the one in the repo?  what was wrong with it?
[21:34] <zebastian> now i need to either get an external drive, copy all my /usr files to it and reinstall or fix this problem soemhow
[21:34] <sebsebseb> naDi: depends what format  those videos are in
[21:34] <addisonj> Guest21216, thats because apple does silly things and makes it very difficult to use those devices with other software
[21:34] <Boondoklife> naDi: Yes it can and i just loaded up that site and it worked for me
[21:34] <sebsebseb> naDi: Flash probably, and yes Ubuntu can do Flash
[21:34] <OlySoft-Dave> zebastian: I am looking up the terminal command to kill the ati module.
do u know how????
[21:35] <diddy> I have deleted tons of gigabyte in my truecrypt container. However, is still shows 0 bytes free. What the heck?
[21:35] <Boondoklife> naDi: Are you using firefox?
[21:35] <sebsebseb> OlySoft-Dave: is there really such a thing?
[21:35] <Slart> Guest21216: take a look at what I wrote..
[21:35] <guntbert> !info mercurial | xjih78
[21:35] <sebsebseb> zebastian: What was  the problem with the driver from the Ubuntu repo?
[21:35] <dan> guntbert, that looks like the linux kernel version
[21:35] <Guest21216> afaik??? what's that??
[21:35] <zebastian> sebsebseb what happened was that every time i'd try to watch a movie, ie a large avi file after a while the whole computer would get stuck, using dragon player or vlc, it didn't matter eventually it would get stuck so i wanted to fix this
[21:35] <pranav>  i guess the smartest way is to remove the hdd  from the laptop :P
[21:35] <sam1> hello
[21:35] <dan> I know they are very similar and appear to use the same repositories, but it would be nice to know which you have when you SSH
[21:35] <zebastian> i turned compiz off whenever trying to watch a movie
[21:36] <Slart> Guest21216: as far as I know
[21:36] <sam1> plz helpe me
[21:36] <froglet> afaik: as far as I know
[21:36] <sebsebseb> zebastian: yeah I heard about choopy video with  ATI  in  9.04
[21:36] <Guest21216> it is tho
[21:36] <sebsebseb> !ask |  sam1
[21:36] <Guest21216> some people made it
[21:36] <Guest21216> just need hel[
[21:36] <Guest21216> help
[21:36] <sebsebseb> zebastian: and I have also heard that 8.04 is  much better for ATI cards than 9.04
[21:36] <zebastian> sebsebseb well the choppy video went away with compiz turned off
[21:36] <guntbert> dan: exactly - and "server" and "desktop" use different kernels by default
[21:36] <g00se> guntbert: thanks. trying to investigate bluetooth
[21:36] <sebsebseb> zebastian: heard as in read it in here before,  or something on those lines
[21:36] <zvacet> bro : read http://members.iinet.net.au/~herman546/p15.html#GRUB_shell
[21:37] <sam1> iwant to use my ZTE 7810
[21:37] <Guest21216> can someone help me using ipod touch with amarok or banshee??????
[21:37] <sebsebseb> sam1: sounds like some not so known hardware to me, what is it?
[21:37] <strange> no
[21:37] <mave99-> is it possible to connect a Nokia E71 via Wlan to my Ubuntu laptop, wich is currently connected via an VLN over a open Wlan?
[21:37] <strange> ipod touch doesnt work in linux
[21:37] <diddy> Anybody can help?
[21:37] <pitput> W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net jaunty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 5A9BF3BB4E5E17B5
[21:37] <dan> guntbert, my desktop and server instance appear to be exactly the same kernel
[21:37] <pranav> clearscreen: no, i gave up
[21:37] <bro> zvacet, sebsebseb, i solved it. i mounted the partition on /linux, so the path was actually /linux/boot/grub/menu.lst. omg, i'm so happy right now....
[21:37] <sebsebseb> strange: I think after some configuring they can work, but in that case not that well
[21:37] <sam1> this is lsusb output
[21:38] <sebsebseb> bro: linux was in the path hmm odd
[21:38] <OlySoft-Dave> zebastian: you will have to use; "dkms status" to display the names of all modules you currently have, then kill the right ones with "dkms remove --all _NAME_"
[21:38] <strange> sebsebseb: really? i ended up running virtualbox to manage my touch
[21:38] <sam1> Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

[21:38] <zebastian> sebsebseb, i got tons of work to do, and i am not used to cli, i gotta fix this or copy all my files from /usr into an external hard drive, i have notes that are very specific for the installation of things on my computer
[21:38] <pranav> just tryin out : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet, as the last try
[21:38] <zebastian> like when i first installed ubuntu it wouldn't have any sound
[21:38] <sebsebseb> zebastian: installation notes???
[21:38] <zebastian> i had to do some specific things
[21:38] <guntbert> dan: then I'd say : if it has a GUI its desktop :-), but maybe the people in #ubuntu-server know better
[21:38] <zebastian> to get sound
[21:38] <froglet_> sam1 you should use pastebin when you want to paste multiple lines
[21:38] <zvacet> sebsebseb : not for me I fix my probles with ATI by upgrading from hardy to intepid no problems after that but maybe this not apply to all
[21:38] <sebsebseb> zebastian: ah ha I see, and it's a lap top yes?
[21:39] <zebastian> then it wouldn't allow for my cellphone to connect to my laptop
[21:39] <mave99-> VLN = VPN
[21:39] <Ian2> is there a wrapper for windows audio drivers
[21:39] <zebastian> so i fixed that
[21:39] <zebastian> and i have the notes of how that was done
[21:39] <zvacet> bro : good  8-)
[21:39] <sebsebseb> zvacet: Well I am glad that  I use Nividia :)
[21:39] <Pirate_Hunter> can anyone help, the pund sign (£) on the keyboard doesnt register with sudo, is there a fix?
[21:39] <zebastian> yes it's a compaq presario laptop cq40-32la
[21:39] <dan> guntbert, ok thanks
[21:39] <OlySoft-Dave> zebastian: gratz to you on sticking with it and getting those services to work.  Stick with this a little longer and we may get you back up with minimal pain.
[21:39] <guntbert> g00se: I have no idea, I just entered hg into my terminal and was told to install mercurial for that :-)
[21:39] <sebsebseb> zvacet: enough though their driver is propritary closed source
[21:39] <sebsebseb> !freedom |  zvacet
[21:40] <sam1> http://paste.ubuntu.com/271193/
[21:40] <zvacet> sebsebseb : I believe you
[21:40] <zebastian> OlySoft-Dave thanks man,m i love ubuntu, it was getting ubuntu or a mac
[21:40] <sebsebseb> zvacet: 9.04 has been a bad release for Intel graphics card and ATI to some extent as well
[21:40] <Guest21216> NO one helps here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
[21:40] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: hmm
[21:40] <zebastian> and i like freedom, i knew that if i had any issue with ubuntu with a little patience i could solve it
[21:40] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: how much RAM do you have?
[21:41] <Sidewinder1> Guess this is a blank screen..
[21:41] <Ian2>  is there a wrapper for windows audio drivers
[21:41] <zvacet> sebsebseb : we all use different proprietary packages and nobody seams to have problem with that
[21:41] <Guest21216> sebsebseb> 3Gb
[21:41] <Guest21216> why?
[21:41] <sebsebseb> zvacet: the first bit is true, the second bit isn't true
[21:41] <seidos> Ian2: pretty sure there is only a wrapper for wifi
[21:41] <Ian2> shite
[21:42] <seidos> Ian2: what sound chipset do you have?
[21:42] <Ian2> cant get audio or notin tried everything
[21:42] <abelabel> hi, for the download/installation instruction page of a program I'd like to give advice about where to put the program. Is there a general recommendation about where to put executables?
[21:42] <Ian2> one sec
[21:42] <g00se> I'm not hugely used to guis. Are there tools to investigate and configure bluetooth?
[21:42] <mycomputer> how can i make voica call in ubuntu
[21:42] <seidos> Ian2: I doubt you have tried Everything
[21:42] <Guest21216> ????????????
[21:42] <zvacet> sebsebseb : don´t be purist take world as it is I will like to use free codecs and other stuff but...
[21:42] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: http://www.virtualbox.org  and for Linux hosts,   which is the closed source  version with USB support,   hmmm  that needs setting up in 9.04 the USB support though,  #vbox for help and   you can have Windows  for your Ipod touch inside Ubuntu probably with that
[21:42] <OlySoft-Dave> Guest21216: I am not sure iPod touch works with either of those.  There was an issue where Apple changed the digital signatures in the song lists so GNU/Linux aps could no longer safely alter the song loadout.  I don't know if those have been dealt with.
[21:42] <froglet_> mycomputer: you could use Skype or Gizmo or something like that
[21:43] <Guest21216> IN ENGLISH PLS
[21:43] <seidos> !yell
[21:43] <sebsebseb> zvacet: I am not purist, but ideally we should be using  opensource/freesoftware rather than closed source software,  it's just sometimes there is a good reason to use closed source, the graphics card driver for example
[21:43] <scunizi> mycomputer: ekiga is built in
 FUCK OFF
[21:43] <Pirate_Hunter> I have just ssh into my other box and i am trying to authenticate myself with shh however sudo gives me wrong password when I know it is correct, it is not the first time has been going on for a while is there a fix?
[21:43] <froglet_> !ohmy
[21:43] <seidos> !language | Guest21216
[21:43] <LjL> Guest21216: calm down. now.
[21:43] <sebsebseb> !troll |  Guest21216
[21:44] <seidos> Guest21216: what are you accomplishing?
[21:44] <zvacet> sebsebseb : I can not agree more we think the same way  ;)
[21:44] <OlySoft-Dave> guest21216: that was fairly plain bro.  Bottom line, I don't know that it can be fixed since it worked fine until Apple broke it.
[21:44] <sebsebseb> zvacet: good :)
[21:44] <zvacet> sebsebseb :  8-)
[21:44] <Ian2> disabeling pulseaudio messin round and stuff     (idt 92hd75b3x5)
[21:44] <Guest21216> seidos>I ONLY want to use my ipod touch with Ubuntu
[21:45] <seidos> Ian2: has sound Ever worked?
[21:45] <mycomputer> my computer
[21:45] <sebsebseb> !language | Guest21216
[21:45] <Ian2> on windos yes and on fedora 11
[21:45] <zebastian> sebsebseb, for how long will you be here?
[21:45] <sebsebseb> zebastian: awhile probably
  help me then!!!
[21:45] <seidos> Guest21216: have you considered a work around until you can get that functionality working?
[21:45] <Ian2> i disabled pulseaudio in fedora and it worked strait away
[21:45] <mycomputer> mycomputer is often disconnecting from net any software to reconnect itself
[21:45] <Ian2> but no hear
[21:45] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: a work around is the virtual machine by the way
[21:46] <StevenMyers> Can someone please load: http://<IP_ADDRESS> and let me know if you get anything?
[21:46] <zebastian> sebsebseb you think i should go buying an external hard drive? and try to do a clean install on hardy
[21:46] <zebastian> of *
[21:46] <LjL> StevenMyers: File server testing completed...
[21:46] <seidos> Ian2: that didn't work for me.  You can try killall pulseaudio, but for me, pulseaudio and alsa both have to be running for sound to work.  I have snd_hda_intel, realtek 268 codec or something
[21:46] <StevenMyers> Excellent!
[21:46] <scunizi> StevenMyers: works
[21:46] <StevenMyers> Thank you VERY much
[21:46] <sebsebseb> zebastian: well maybe,  but also maybe 9.10 which is released on October 29th will have better ATI support, I hope so
[21:46] <StevenMyers> Been at this for days on getting this IP public :-)
[21:46] <zebastian> maybe so
[21:46] <sebsebseb> zebastian: however it is a good idea to have an external hard disk, for backup and that,  a computers hard disk can just fail on you after all
[21:47] <sam1> Is there any arbix here
[21:47] <scunizi> StevenMyers: dyndys.org?
[21:47] <seidos> one thing I can say about an office, it is usually quieter
[21:47] <pranav> i give up
[21:47] <zebastian> sebsebseb would  you help me copy all of my /usr stuff from the cli to the external hard drive ¿
[21:47] <Sidewinder1> StevenMyers>"File server testing completed... " is what I got.
[21:47] <sebsebseb> pranav: with what?
[21:47] <StevenMyers> Not at all
[21:47] <Pirate_Hunter> I have just ssh into my other box and i am trying to authenticate myself with shh however sudo gives me wrong password when I know it is correct, it is not the first time has been going on for a while is there a fix?
[21:47] <Guest21216> OMFG NO ONE KNOWS ANYTHING IN HERE
[21:47] <StevenMyers> Port forwarding on my modem
[21:47] <pranav> i need help on installing ubuntu
[21:47] <scunizi> StevenMyers: that will work until your isp changes the IP
[21:47] <seidos> !yell | Guest21216
[21:47] <cowgarden> Slart, got it, to many primary partitions...
[21:48] <pranav> i do not have a cdrom, or support for booting usb
[21:48] <sebsebseb> pranav: Ok what kind of help?
[21:48] <Slart> cowgarden: I thought you could have 4 primary partitions?
[21:48] <Sidewinder1> !repeat | Guest21216>
[21:48] <sebsebseb> Guest21216: You have to learn to help yourself a bit when it comes to stuff like Ubuntu,   not many people will want to hold your hand all the way,  like they might do with Windows, if you paid them heh
[21:48] <StevenMyers> That is true, but they have it probed for the next ip's to grab that port forwarding.
[21:48] <Ian2> ill reinstall pulse audio but if that dosent work anthin else
[21:48] <pranav> i have to install it on a laptop
[21:48] <sam1> how can i use my ZTE 7810 wireless modem with linux

[21:48] <pranav> ihave it installed on the pc i'm using
[21:48] <OlySoft-Dave> Guest21216: this is the last reply for you bro.  You have a device that is broken by design.  You will need to hack it in order to work with GNU/Linux.  Google it if you're interested, otherwise stop being rude.
[21:48] <Slart> cowgarden: ahh.. that makes sense then
[21:49] <seidos> Ian2: here is a howto I followed that taught me a lot about alsa and pulseaudio:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[21:49] <bro> sebsebseb, zvacet: thanks guys, you saved my ass and my system, i removed the ati driver
[21:49] <sam1> pranav:
[21:49] <cowgarden> anyone who knows whats on the eeepc 1000hs fat32 partition (5GB)?
[21:49] <zebastian> OlySoft-Dave for how long will you be there?
[21:49] <seidos> Ian2: there is probably a how to out there for your hardware
[21:49] <sebsebseb> bro: how?
[21:49] <pranav> is there a way to mayb, use the cdrom on my pc, as the booting deive for the laptop
[21:49] <sebsebseb> bro: hold on
[21:49] <sebsebseb> bro: maybe you can help  zebastian he has a similar issue
[21:49] <bro> ok

[21:50] <Guest21216> FUCK OFF BUNCH OF CUNTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
[21:50] <pranav> ?? i've tried everyhing... the pxe is not an option, since it requires a lot of downloads...
[21:50] <OlySoft-Dave> Zebastian: for a bit, off and on.
[21:50] <guntbert> !ops | Guest21216 offensive language
[21:50] <sebsebseb> !ops |  Guest21216  I think has attitude has gone on long enough now
[21:50] <sam1> noone want to helpe me
[21:50] <sebsebseb> sam1: I will
[21:50] <guntbert> g00se: glad to help :-)
[21:51] <sebsebseb> sam1: you  want to install?
[21:51] <pranav> ahem ??
[21:51] <sam1> sebsebseb: plz
[21:51] <bro> zebastian: so, on grub loader i hit ESC, got into recovery mode, xfix didn't help for me so i got root, sudo apt-get remove --purge xorg-driver-fglrx
[21:51] <zvacet> pitput : http://paste.ubuntu.com/271202/
[21:51] <sam1> yes
[21:52] <sam1> what should I have to do
[21:52] <mycomputer> my computer is disconnecting from net weather any software to reconnect it automatically
[21:52] <sebsebseb> sam1: ok
[21:52] <blahjake> is there somewhere on launchpad where i can read some notes regarding updated package versions, e.g. an updated kernel package becomes available and i want to know what was addressed in it?
[21:52] <sam1> sebsebseb: what should I have to do
[21:52] <sebsebseb> sam1: what's your current set up?
[21:52] <sebsebseb> sam1: you only have Windows installed on there right now?
[21:53] <tmg1> is there a free software equivilent to logicworks? (that works on ubuntu?)
[21:53] <sam1> ubuntu 9.04
[21:53] <sam1> gnome
[21:53] <sebsebseb> sam1: I thought you said that you wanted to install Ubuntu?
[21:53] <zebastian> bro, ok i will do that
[21:53] <bro> sebsebseb: what's with this message? i got it on connect: "You have a device that is broken by design.  You will need to hack it in order to work with GNU/Linux.
[21:53] <sebsebseb> bro: really?
[21:53] <scunizi> tmg1: what's logicworks? what does it do
[21:53] <sebsebseb> bro: odd, but kind of funny,  if Ubuntu is giving you that message also
[21:53] <sam1> no iwant to use my ZTE wireless connection
[21:53] <bro> zebastian: yep, i don't know what's all about
[21:53] <eltume> how do I edit my xorf.conf so that it'll boot up in vesa mode?
[21:54] <tmg1> scunizi: vhdl/circuit design
[21:54] <sebsebseb> sam1: oh I see, well wireless isn't my area
[21:54] <sebsebseb> !wireless | sam1
[21:54] <tmg1> !vhdl
[21:54] <thiebaude> !madwifi
[21:54] <scunizi> tmg1: dia might do that.. it is capable of many different types of diagrams.
[21:54] <bro> zebastian: ok, do that and come back and tell us if it worked
[21:54] <Amaranth> sebsebseb: btw, it is not possible to use an iPod Touch with Linux without jailbreaking it or using virtualbox like you said
[21:54] <sam1> thanks
[21:54] <Amaranth> sebsebseb: Just in case someone asks later :)
[21:54] <OlySoft-Dave> bro: that was me responding to a guest that wanted to connect an iPod Touch to Ubuntu.  He needs to jailbreak it and didn't like hearing it so was cursing and being rude.
[21:54] <sebsebseb> Amaranth: jailbreaking?
[21:55] <zebastian> bro, what did you do afterward?
[21:55] <zebastian> reboot?
[21:55] <Amaranth> sebsebseb: Modifying the firmware of the touch so you can install 3rd party software
[21:55] <bro> zebastian, yes
[21:55] <pranav> btw is there an option to install it via an image file, it is present on it!
[21:55] <pranav> ????
[21:55] <sebsebseb> Amaranth: oh well the average  Ipod Touch user isn't going to want to do that, I expect
[21:55] <sebsebseb> Amaranth: plus  maybe that would even brake Appples warranty or whatever?
[21:55] <Amaranth> sebsebseb: after that you have to install an ssh server and then gpod can access it via ssh to do music
[21:55] <Amaranth> sebsebseb: Yep, totally voids the warranty
[21:55] <sam1> sebsebseb: it;s a modem
[21:55] <scunizi> tmg1: also if you open synaptic and search for "circuit design" you'll come up with many references.. one is named electric
[21:56] <bro> OlySoft-Dave: well, i might want to change my nick then, maybe it's just too generic :D
[21:56] <sam1> 3G modem
[21:56] <sebsebseb> Amaranth: plus it sounds a little complacted
[21:56] <Amaranth> sebsebseb: So the 'legal' and 'sane' answer is virtual box. Or, more likely, "go back to OS X"
[21:56] <zebastian> bro, didn't work, login won't load after splash still
[21:56] <OlySoft-Dave> bro: sorry man, was not intended for you.
[21:56] <sebsebseb> Amaranth: yeah it's  the standard Ipod  that will work in  Banshee,  but the Touch nope?
[21:57] <sebsebseb> Amaranth: braking the warranty isn't legal?
[21:57] <sam1> sebsebseb: where are U
[21:57] <Amaranth> sebsebseb: Not even the iPod Classic will work anymore, last I checked. Firmware updates broke it
[21:57] <bro> zebastian: but the driver was removed?
[21:57] <sebsebseb> sam1: I said I can't help
[21:57] <frank1> anyone know how to get the sound running on jaunty? just upgraded on my dell vostro 200 and cant hear a thing
[21:57] <Amaranth> sebsebseb: No, it's a DMCA violation
[21:57] <zebastian> bro, the output looked as though it had done nothing
[21:57] <OlySoft-Dave> sebsebseb, amaranth: I think only old iPods will work.  Apple changed their digital signatures on the song database a while ago so they would not work on Free Software any more.
[21:57] <seidos> Amaranth: my 5th gen works somewhat
[21:57] <Amaranth> sebsebseb: So it is legal for someone to do it but not legal for you to help them or give them tools to do it
[21:58] <sebsebseb> Amaranth: oh
[21:58] <Amaranth> Anyhow, getting a bit offtopic now :)
[21:58] <bro> zebastian: it has to say something, if it worked or not. you have the ati proprietary driver, right?
[21:58] <sebsebseb> Amaranth: DMCA isn't global though?  only USA I thought?
[21:58] <Amaranth> sebsebseb: Just tell them they can't do it
[21:58] <zebastian> bro, the output looked as though there were no files removed or unpackaged or anythign
[21:58] <Amaranth> sebsebseb: Yes USA but US companies try to enforce it globally and most ISPs seem to be willing to go along with it
[21:59] <sebsebseb> Amaranth: Ipod  Touch =  Virtualbox     that makes sense, plus  easier that way and all that
[21:59] <OlySoft-Dave> DMCA is USA and Australia only currently
[21:59] <seidos> my 5th gen worked to xfer files, but files with DMA wouldn't transfer
[21:59] <loldma> hi :)
[21:59] <sebsebseb> Amaranth: oh
[21:59] <seidos> sebsebseb: do you have an ipod?
[21:59] <loldma> can anyone tell me how can i mount a fat or fat32 filesystem to my ubuntu 9.04, cause it says its a read only filesystem
[21:59] <sebsebseb> seidos: no
[21:59] <bro> zebastian: are you using the fglrx driver? cause if you don't, it can't uninstall it then
[22:00] <seidos> sebsebseb: I dunno why Guest got so PO'ed
[22:00] <zebastian> bro, i don't know which i'm using, i had tried to switch back vesa and that didnt work
[22:00] <jeeves_Moss> does Kismet support the D-Link WUA-1340?
[22:00] <Heikki123> jahas
[22:00] <sebsebseb> seidos: If you stay in here long enough like I have,  your likely to learn stuff about hardware that you don't actsualley have
[22:01] <sebsebseb> seidos: if you have been in here enough times I meant.
[22:01] <bro> zebastian: ok, look in the menu: system, administration, hardware drivers and tell me if the drivers there are active or not
[22:01] <seidos> sebsebseb: I'm trying to think of hardware that I've learned about that I don't own, but can't think of any
[22:01] <Sidewinder1> !fat32 | loldma>
[22:01] <Crountwor> Hi.
[22:01] <Cynary> Hello
[22:02] <Cynary> I'm having problems with IM
[22:02] <sebsebseb> seidos: I meant for example  the Touch, Ipod, and  ATI,   issues in 9.04
[22:02] <loldma> thanks ubottu :)
[22:02] <henryk> 20073
[22:02] <sebsebseb> !thanks |  loldma
[22:02] <Cynary> I can't connect to the msn network for some reason :S
[22:02] <zebastian> bro, i'm not on the gui
[22:02] <zebastian> bro, i can't access the gui
[22:02] <zebastian> the login screen won't load after the splash screen
[22:02] <sebsebseb> Amaranth: thanks :)
[22:02] <Cynary> I mean, I can login, but I'm not being able to send any messages
[22:02] <OlySoft-Dave> So, where is a good tutorial on using the standard remote desktop stuff built into the default Ubuntu loadout to connect and help folks past bottlenecks?
[22:02] <seidos> sebsebseb: ah, yeah, I don't have a touch or an ATI card.  I have installed ubuntu on a system with Nvidia hardware though.  Two different systems.  I don't have them anymore though (the systems).
[22:02] <Cynary> I've tried pidgin and amsn and they both give me the same error
[22:02] <zebastian> it will load small blurry ubuntus
[22:02] <zebastian> and get stuck there
[22:02] <Guest2275> if i want to change mac address on my  NIC which conf file can i do it on?
[22:02] <Cynary> Anyone else having this problem?
[22:03] <Crountwor> Which is better of these http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/2552037.htm OR http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/2553548.htm
[22:03] <bro> zebastian: ok, type fglrxinfo and tell me the output
[22:03] <Pirate_Hunter> is there a way for me to make sudo show password I need to know what is actually being sent when using sudo?
[22:03] <Crountwor> Which is better of these http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/2552037.htm OR http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/2553548.htm
[22:03] <Slart> Guest2275: probably in /etc/network/interfaces  .. you might want to check if you can't do it with ifconfig too
[22:04] <Crountwor> Anyone?
[22:04] <mobal> hi
[22:04] <zebastian> bro the program fglrxinfo is currently not installed. you can isntall it by typing apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[22:04] <Slart> Crountwor: a little offtopic for #ubuntu, right?
[22:04] <Crountwor> I agree but I know there are wise people here to offer advice
[22:04] <bro> zebastian: ok, so fglrx are not installed. get back to you in a sec, searching the net for smt
[22:04] <loldma> bye, thanx again :)
[22:05] <thiebaude> Crountwor,  #ubuntu-offtopic might be able to help
[22:05] <zebastian> bro, i will be right back i'm going to the corner shop for an external hard drive
[22:05] <Slart> Crountwor: well.. that doesn't really make it ok to spam the channel with any kind of questions.. go ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:05] <Crountwor> Will do. No offense intended.
[22:05] <sam1> no one knows about wireless usb modems here
[22:05] <Sidewinder1> None taken
[22:05] <pranav> sam1: ??
[22:06] <Crountwor> Bye all.
[22:06] <fauxreigner> Question: I'm trying to read the man pages for the bash command "exec," but when I enter "man exec" I'm told there's no manual entry for exec.  What gives?
[22:06] <pranav> wht's the problem?
[22:06] <pranav> sam1: ??
[22:06] <Cynary> Hello, anyone think they can help me?
[22:06] <Crountwor> Keep smiling. : )
[22:06] <sam1> i do not no how to identfy it on ubuntui
[22:06] <Slart> fauxreigner: try man bash?
[22:07] <OlySoft-Dave> fauxreighner: what are you trying to do?  EXECute a binary?
[22:07] <devnull_> anyone know why i am getting usb hub errors about enumerating ports ?
[22:07] <seidos> sam1: what make and model?
[22:07] <bro> sebsebseb: i don't remember using vesa anytime, but you can remove it with apt-get remove xorg-video-vesa, right?
[22:08] <Slart> fauxreigner: you can search the man pages by pressing / and then writing the search term.. try "/exec " with the extra space
[22:08] <seidos> sam1: I might be able to find information on the internet for you
[22:08] <Cynary> I have a problem with Instant Messaging, more specifically the microsoft msn network. I tried using both pidgin and aMsn, and the same problem occurs. I login to my account without problems, and can see who's on/off, but when I try to send an instant message, it gives me a connection error. I don't know if I can receive messages either :/
[22:08] <Mr_Giraffe> hi, for some reason java has decided to take up 100% of my CPU at all times and I can't kill it, even as root. anybody know what might be wrong?
[22:08] <sebsebseb> bro: I don't know, maybe
[22:08] <Slart> fauxreigner: press / to search for the next occurence of the same term as the last search
[22:08] <seidos> !nick
[22:08] <sebsebseb> Mr_Giraffe: you sure it's not Flash?   Has anyone here installed Ubuntu on a machine with Xeon processors
[22:10] <Mr_Giraffe> top doesn't kill it
[22:10] <Mr_Giraffe> but it does say it's taking up a cozy 100% of my CPU
[22:10] <Chousuke> fauxreigner: executing a .cpp file? :P
[22:10] <Cynary> Mr_Giraffe: that means some process is calling it ... can you think of anything that could be on that uses java?
[22:10] <thiebaude> !medibuntu | treble54
[22:10] <seidos> Mr_Giraffe: have you tried pkill -stop processname?
[22:10] <Slart> fauxreigner: nope.. but exec is a bash command.. so it's described in the bash man page.. bash is the shell
[22:10] <Mr_Giraffe> Cynary, I use Freemind (mind mapping software), but that shouldn't be starting on boot
[22:10] <seidos> Mr_Giraffe: pkill -cont processname to resume the process
[22:11] <Milos_SD> Hi to all... Does anyone have expiriance with MSI CR700 laptop and Ubuntu? A friend can't make wireless work on it.
[22:11] <OlySoft-Dave> fauxreigner: there is no actual 'exec' command.  It is part of bash.  Do a 'man bash' if you are using the bash shell for coding clues.
[22:11] <Mr_Giraffe> well that certainly did something
[22:11] <seidos> !who | Mr_Giraffe
[22:11] <fauxreigner> Chousuke: grr, semantics
[22:11] <Mr_Giraffe> seidos, my bad
[22:11] <thiebaude> treble54, when i wanted to play wmv. video i had to try medibuntu for the w32 codecs
[22:11] <Mr_Giraffe> ooh, I think I might know what might be happening...
[22:11] <Chousuke> fauxreigner: well, yeah. I don't understand what you want to do :P
[22:11] <un-def> histo, how do i update an expired key in apt?
[22:12] <un-def> sorry histo
[22:12]  * seidos is going to get some food
[22:12] <Chousuke> fauxreigner: executing C++ source code makes little sense, unless you have a C++ interpreter. And I'm not aware of oe.
[22:12] <Chousuke> one*
[22:12] <Cynary> Mr_Giraffe: Have you tried stopping freemind, just to know if it's calling java?
[22:12] <scunizi> Mr_Giraffe: if it sarts on boot then go to System>Preferences>Sessions and un"tic" that program
[22:13] <OlySoft-Dave> fauxreigner: Chousuke caught that, I didn't.  Are you scripting or writing C++ source?
[22:13] <Slart> fauxreigner: oh.. hang on.. you wanted the man page for the c function exec? not the command line command exec?
[22:13] <fauxreigner> Chousuke: It's a programming assignment for an operating systems class.  Basically, I need to write a .cpp program that spawns two child processes, then the two processes have to communicate via a pipe.
[22:13] <Chousuke> fauxreigner: ah, right.
[22:13] <Chousuke> fauxreigner: use man 3 exec; man 3 fork; etc.
[22:13] <fauxreigner> OlySoft-Dave, Slart: Yes - the execl() C command, actually.
[22:13] <un-def> hello, how do i update an expired apt key?
[22:13] <schiv> hello guys the network wizard is provided by gnome-network-manager itself right?
[22:14] <Mr_Giraffe> Cynary, actually I figured it out
[22:14] <Slart> fauxreigner: there is a way to make man search in programming resources.. something like man <some number here> exec
