[16:00] <helo1> hey guys. I am using samba to share files from my laptop. The smbd service does not start at boot. I have to manually enter "sudo service smbd start" before filesharing will function. How can I correct this? On all my other samba installs, the service is autostarted at boot
[16:00] <Kruptein> ProtoX clean installs are always better imo
[16:00] <touil> Hello everyone. I'm going to try to explain a bug that occurs in my fresh installation of ubuntu 12.04.
[16:00] <dougmencken> derpella: I doubt it would be faster than in Debian Sid, in Sid, there's currently only old XFCE
[16:00] <Kruptein> touil:  what's the problem
[16:01] <derpella> I see, thanks
[16:01] <touil> Once in a while, my desktop crashes, I mean, I still see the 'arrow' moving on the screen when I move the mouse,
[16:01] <derpella> Unity?
[16:01] <touil> but, when I try to click somewhere, nothing happens.
[16:01] <ProtoX> and this time I actually remembered to make a backup of fstab to the fileserver
[16:01] <ProtoX> so I won't have to set everything up manually again
[16:01] <ProtoX> lol
[16:01] <touil> Ubuntu seems to work because when this occurs as I listen to music, the music does go on.
[16:01] <limitgb> anyone with grub experience?
[16:02] <shadykhan> im using xfce and some applications where i right click the menu is suuper small any idea how to fix?
[16:02] <phraktal77> anyone can confirm evolution+mapi working with exchange ? including calendar and contacts ?

[16:04] <Mneumonic> Does anyone know of a fix?
[16:04] <lousygarua> FooFlyer: maybe try #ubuntu-es
[16:05] <FooFlyer> ok, thank you so much
[16:05] <dougmencken> shadykhan: really small font
[16:05] <theadmin> Ethek: What exactly is the problem? The skin seems to be getting applied.
[16:05] <dougmencken> shadykhan: go to Rat -> Settings -> Appearance -> Fonts (tab)
[16:06] <Ethek> theadmin it is, lack of detail on what should be the classic winamp look of the skin. No colors ect
[16:06] <theadmin> Ethek: Oh, I see... No idea, sorry
[16:07] <mentat> Anyone know why ubuntu thinks my desktop is a laptop in the displays window?
[16:07] <Mneumonic> This is the problem I am having http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1801465
[16:07] <cuser> hi all. i installed "openbox obconf" in my ubuntu 11.04 but when i choose "openbox session" in gdm, it opens but i'm unable to do anything (for example the terminal does not returns a prompt). what it could be? thanks!
[16:07] <MonkeyDust> mentat  why do you think ubuntu thinks that?
[16:08] <dougmencken> Mneumonic: look into 'dmesg'; if there's nothing suspicious, then it's your mice
[16:08] <shadykhan> dougmencken, the whole ui font size got bigger
[16:08] <shadykhan> accept vlc lol
[16:08] <mentat> when I open Displays it shows only one monitor called Laptop, I have dual monitors on a desktop and it won't let me mess with them...
[16:08] <Mneumonic> it's not my mouse, touchpad on laptop is doing the same thing
[16:08] <nimbiotics> In v12.04 with gnome; how do I: a) Switch between running programs and b) start the update manager?
[16:08] <Mneumonic> dougmencken and I don't have this problem in windows 7
[16:08] <dougmencken> shadykhan: set not default font and size, I'm using Sans 9
[16:08] <limitgb> help, can't boot ubuntu
[16:09] <Mneumonic> dougmencken I should note that my mouse still works "inside" of the xchat window.  I just can't click on the UI at all
[16:09] <MonkeyDust> nimbiotics  alt-tab and dash menu - update manager
[16:09] <Mneumonic> or on unity panel or desktop
[16:09] <dougmencken> Mneumonic: hmm, looks strange, is it USB mice?
[16:09] <limitgb> first error in the Ubuntu install, then no grub just a blinking cursor after reboot, now an empty grub
[16:09] <limitgb> :(
[16:10] <Mneumonic> dougmencken my mouse is usb yea, touchpad also acts the same
[16:10] <shadykhan> dougmencken, same problem
[16:10] <dougmencken> shadykhan: with mice?
[16:11] <shadykhan> no font
[16:11] <dougmencken> shadykhan: ah, font, well, set it to 14 then, not 9
[16:11] <nimbiotics> MonkeyDust: Alt+ab does not work and is 'dash' a command?
[16:11] <Mneumonic> I wonder if it's an issue with the Unity interface or compiz.  I didn't experience this in Xubuntu 12.04
[16:11] <NurseDad> is there a way using the gui to  change the email in the notification area from thunderbird to evolution
[16:11] <Mneumonic> Maybe I'll try installing xubuntu-desktop
[16:12] <MonkeyDust> nimbiotics  in Unity, dash is the menu
[16:12] <nimbiotics> MonkeyDust: I'm not using uinity but gnome
[16:12] <shadykhan> dougmencken, then it messes up everything elses ui it becomes bigger which becomes annoying and it still doesnt fix the vlc menu
[16:12] <dougmencken> shadykhan: so this tiny font issue is VLC-only?
[16:13] <shadykhan> dougmencken, vlc and its happening on virtualbox as well only two applications that i have noticed so far
[16:13] <sfxtor> Can someone point me in the right direction.  12.04. I have dual launchers showing up and desktop icons are overlapping / ghosting.  I tried unity reset but didnt work. was ok until today.
[16:13] <dougmencken> shadykhan: version? I'm on 2.0.1, and everything is fine
[16:13] <TheBuntu> What is going to do for 2nd screen?     sudo amdconfig --set-pcs-str="DDX,EnableRandR12,FALSE"  .. all i used was amdconfig --initial -f.
[16:13] <sary> limitgb: does the GRUB menu shows up at all !
[16:14] <wylde> I'm curious, I know I can update my ltsp servers packages by chroot into /opt/ltsp/i386 and rebuilding the image. If I log in on an ltsp client machine using a user with sudo privs and run 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade' will that upgrade the ltsp image or simply the ltsp server machine?
[16:14] <shadykhan> 2.01
[16:14] <shadykhan> dougmencken, you on xfce?
[16:14] <limitgb> sary, no menu
[16:14] <limitgb> just a console

[16:22] <helo1> I have an issue with my display on Ubuntu 10.04 laptop. It randomly extends the desktop as if there is an external monitor, causing things to render off screen until I manually set it back to the laptop display only. This also causes my gnome applets to get all messy since it changes my laptop display resolution sometimes (not always). How can I stop this from happening? It may be related to another issue which is that I have issues set
[16:22] <ANub> this did not happen until 11.10

[16:23] <davey_> dougmencken, i did that now what?:P
[16:23] <ANub> i uninstalled keyring.........and guess what

[16:25] <OerHeks> ANub, logical, the keys & passwords are stored in seahorse/keyring.

[16:25] <pyboy> xtgyal: i  know that just look at this chat and you will know
[16:25] <wylde> pnphi: the arch you have will be the one you installed? i386 amd64 ppc etc etc etc....
[16:25] <ANub> Any ideas....?
[16:25] <dougmencken> davey_: openjdk was deployed by sun microsystems
[16:25] <OerHeks> ANub, yes, reinstall.

[16:26] <samster34> chipotle: I don't know about the best, but virtualbox works nicely for me
[16:26] <wylde> pnphi: type uname -a in terminal and that will tell you what arch you're using. (assuming you're on Ubuntu now)
[16:26] <OerHeks> dougmencken, openjdk is NOT deployed by sun.

LibreOffice seems to have installed with my first name only listed, I updated the info in Tools > Options so it has my full name but it still saves PDFs as my first name only.
[16:34] <cchico30> hola
 seems like memory issue
[16:34] <samster34> DaZ: no, this is as far as I get. I don't even get this far without nomodeset
[16:34] <cchico30> alguien habla español?
[16:34] <DaZ> !es
[16:34] <samster34> ANub: I ran a complete memory check a few weeks ago, everything was fine
[16:35] <samster34> and nothing would run then, either
[16:35] <sary> limitgb: are you still on you desk.
[16:35] <james296> can anyone tell me how to eliminate the floppy drive showing up in nautilus running on VMware Fusion on iMac
[16:35] <sary> naj42181: have you tried these steps here http://askubuntu.com/questions/128269/wireless-connection-drops-every-30-seconds-after-upgrade-to-ubuntu-12-04
[16:36] <samster34> ANub: I'll try taking out the modules anyway
[16:36] <touil> I have freshly installed ubuntu 12.04.
[16:36] <touil> And once in a while, my desktop doesn't respond any more.
[16:36] <naj42181> sary: i just did the update manager and that didn't fix the problem, ive tried manually installing the drivers and that didn't work
[16:36] <james296> I removed the floppy from VMware Fusion, but the Floppy area is still visible within Ubuntu 12.04
[16:37] <samster34> apart from this issue, I also seem to have a video driver issue, without nomodeset I don't even get to the purple screen before it freezes
[16:37] <james296> it just annoys me that its there
[16:37] <touil> I mean, sometimes, I can see the mouse moving on the screen, but whenever I click somewhere, nothing happens
[16:37] <sary> naj42181: which  driver is it .
[16:37] <naj42181> sary: and i'm not advanced enough to know how to turn off the power management
[16:37] <touil> so I lose completly the control of ubuntu.
[16:37] <naj42181> sary: intel wimax 6250, but i don't need the wimax part to work, just the wireless N
[16:38] <touil> I can do  Ctrl+Alt+F1 and get to a terminal.
[16:38] <pyboy> touil: does  the mouse not move sometimes
[16:38] <rhizmoe> so, i rebooted my 10.10 box and now i don't have any hover behaviors, mousewise.
[16:39] <reader> hai guys
[16:39] <Halzen> Ahoy.
[16:40] <touil> No the mouse always moves.
[16:40] <sary> naj42181: Right , but i meant which driver is loaded for that device ! you can check with lsmod .. can you pastebin the output of lshw -C network to paste.ubuntu.com
[16:40] <pyboy> hello L3top
[16:40] <Yerushalmi> Hey folks, I just updated to 12.04 and I'm using gnome-shell. Why is it that half of my games (lagno, tetravex, quadrapassel, etc.) no longer have menus and I can't set their options?
[16:40] <halfie_> is removing pulseaudio supported?
[16:41] <halfie_> I removed pulseaudio and now the sound icon in main menu doesn't work
[16:41] <Halzen> halfie_ Yep, lemme dig up a guide.
[16:41] <numberto> Hi guys, how can I disable showing hud on left alt key press?
[16:41] <ActionParsnip> Yerushalmi: 'no longer have menus' I assume you mean it doesn't show in the shell?
[16:41] <Rexter> fresh install of 12.04 animated splash screen is missing. Anyone know why?
[16:42] <pyboy> touil: that is weird
[16:42] <naj42181> sary: http://paste.ubuntu.com/960406/
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> numberto: if you use ubuntu-tweak it can disable HUD
[16:42] <Halzen> halfie_ sudo apt-get install pulseaudio gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio indicator-sound
[16:42] <reader> hai guys, I configured my virtual box guest os as Bridged adapter  and both guest and host can ping to each other. But the problem is when I disconnected the wifi I can't able to ping each other . how to ping when I am not in a wifi network
[16:42] <numberto> ActionParsnip: I don't want to disble hud, I want to remap it. I am ok with right alt key showing hud, but left one is a trouble when I play games
[16:43] <Yerushalmi> ActionParsnip: No, I mean that the games' menu bar, through which, for instance, I could set the starting level in quadrapassel or the skill of the computer player in lagno or the size of the board in tetravex, is missing. No file menu, nothing. Just a simple bar with New, Pause, and Full Screen buttons.
[16:43] <darkcharl> numberto: ccsm
[16:43] <sary> naj42181: thank you.
[16:43] <numberto> darkcharl: where do I change it in ccsm?
[16:43] <ActionParsnip> Yerushalmi: are the items not in the global-menubar?
[16:43] <Yerushalmi> ActionParsnip: I'm using gnome-shell, there's no global-menubar there.
[16:43] <glosoli> is there any way to show Global Menu using opera ?
[16:44] <darkcharl> numberto: if I recall it right under the unity plugin
[16:44] <numberto> darkcharl: never mind, found it
[16:44] <sary> naj42181: nice , also could you please paste the output of sudo lshw -C network .
[16:44] <numberto> darkcharl: thanks

[16:47] <splnet> I want to customize how  an application is launched in Unity (add a flag). How do I modify the menu on the left hand side?
[16:47] <reader> hai guys, I configured my virtual box guest os as Bridged adapter  and both guest and host can ping to each other. But the problem is when I disconnected the wifi I can't able to ping each other . how to ping when I am not in a wifi network
[16:47] <biggi_mat> reader, you set the interface on host on which the virtual machine relys
[16:48] <biggi_mat> Check your settings
[16:48] <halfie__> I have removed pulseaudio from my system and now the sound icon has gone from my menu bar. Can I get the icon back?

[16:48] <FloodBot1> pyboy: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:48] <pyboy>         }
[16:48] <darkcharl> reader: you might want to use a dedicated network for that
[16:48] <pyboy> sorry
[16:49] <splnet> Is there another channel dedicated to Unity, or is this it?
[16:49] <pyboy> didnt mean to do that FloodBot1
[16:49] <sary> aha ,  nice . lshw -C network shows .. from the Wireless interface  in configuration line
[16:50] <reader> biggi_mat,  I setup-ed bridged connection wlan0 in vbox I can ping each other when I Am on wifi networks
[16:50] <sary> naj42181: thank was for you

[16:52] <elspuddy> Bronze, can it copy hole folders over ?
[16:52] <ActionParsnip> elspuddy: could use sshfs / sftp via openssh-server
[16:52] <craigbass1976> BAH!  I keep losing connection to a server.  WHat's the best way to run an update on a box that I keep losing connection to?
[16:52] <reader> biggi_mat, There is nothing I found to fix this.

[16:53] <Bronze> HI, I'm on my first ubuntu server in years and I have encountered 'upstart'. I have to disable the ntop service on this machine and after reading the man pages on upstart i have no idea how. (For example, these folks keep calling commands "events" ) can anyone give me a hint on how to disable a service that is start at boot time?
[16:53] <Guest5101> I was loving my 12.04 experience till this afternoon.
[16:53] <ActionParsnip> craigbass1976: are you or the server using iwlagn driver?
[16:53] <reader> biggi_mat, can u just clear me how to do , Because I 'am a newbie
[16:54] <Bronze> elspuddy: yes it can, see the scp man page for details. its very easy. page well worth reading
[16:54] <Yerushalmi> ActionParsnip: About my missing menus.
[16:54] <ActionParsnip> Yerushalmi: try with Unity, maybe its a bug with gnome-shell
[16:54] <Bronze> craigbass1976: what kind of connection are you using? remote file system mount? ssh?
[16:54] <L3top> dbdii407: http://pastebin.com/5iLd25YT  try that
[16:55] <L3top> dbdii407: of course back up your current config first

[16:55] <samster34> help! what is happening :/ http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21007284/WP_000093.jpg
[16:55] <beefman> hi, just dist upgraded to 12.04, now getting "error: no such partition"
[16:56] <sary> naj42181: Yes , am trying to figure out what does that means .. because it's news to me.
[16:56] <craigbass1976> Bronze, ssh.  I'm just trying to run apt-get update, then I'll run apt-get upgrade, if I can keep the bleeping connection up.
[16:56] <ActionParsnip> samster34: have you tested your RAM from Grub?
[16:56] <Bronze> craigbass1976: what error message do you get?
[16:56] <ActionParsnip> craigbass1976: are you connecting over wifi on any part?If so are you using iwlagn driver?
[16:56] <samster34> ActionParsnip: yes, weeks ago when I tried this the first time. no issues. I took out one, took out the other, switched them around, no difference
[16:56] <wylde> samster34: you may also consider fsck after testing your RAM.
[16:57] <stripe> hi all have just installed 12.04 unity, it only  took 90 mins to install, when it eventually booted to a desktop the desktop is hanging over both sides of the screen making it impossible to access any of the controls, just what the hell am I supposed to do?
[16:57] <craigbass1976> ActionParsnip, I'm connecting fine in my house.  I think the problem is after that.  I can ping my router and the modem, but not google.com or <IP_ADDRESS> (their dns server) every so often.
[16:57] <splnet> craigbass1976: screen creates a detachable terminal. so ssh into your server. screen; [run commad] 'ctrl a d'; you can then lose your connection and keep the terminal active
[16:57] <samster34> wylde: ? it's not the file system. this is a live system from a USB drive. the iso matches the md5, the system boots on a different computer
[16:58] <ActionParsnip> craigbass1976: doesn't answer the question...
[16:58] <sary> naj42181: my device is Intel® PRO/Wireless 3945ABG , and so driver am using for it is  configuration: broadcast=yes driver=iwl3945 ip=<IP_ADDRESS> latency=0 multicast=yes wireless=IEEE 802.11abg
[16:58] <L3top> stripe, what kind of display is it, and keep the language G rated
[16:58] <craigbass1976> ActionParsnip, I am wifi, but that's not the buggy connection as far as I can tell
[16:58] <sary> whould someone please explain this to me and naj42181 please use the intree (drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi) driver directly.  in http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/
[16:59] <stripe> sorry it is the unity display on a 24" monitor
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> craigbass1976: if you run:  sudo lshw -C network     what is the driver module you are using?
[16:59] <naj42181> yes please
[16:59] <samster34> ActionParsnip: what else could it be?
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> samster34: try the boot option:  nomodeset
[16:59] <L3top> stripe can you open a terminal and give me the output of lspci -nn | grep VGA
[16:59] <Vikasss> hello there
[17:00] <samster34> ActionParsnip: that's how I'm getting here in the first place. without that, it just freezes earlier
[17:00] <Bronze> splnet: yes his terminal session will be re-attachable but the copying will still have failed.
[17:00] <Vikasss> need a little help on ubuntu installation
[17:00] <nimbiotics> can someone please recommend a nice and simple document manager for ubuntu? TIA!
[17:00] <ActionParsnip> samster34: you add the option in Grub, which is waaay before Plymouth is even loaded
[17:00] <stripe> no because I am in another OS so that I can access xchat
[17:00] <Guest5101> I can't boot anymore to 12.04, not even from a USB. When I disable the SATA controller then I can boot from a USB. When I boot with the SATA controller enabled and in normal mode all I see is a blinking cursor and it hangs there. When I boot in the recovery mode it hangs when I get "[6.974400] sata_nv 0000:00:0d.1: Using SWNCQ mode". Any ideas? Any help would be much appriciated.
[17:00] <ActionParsnip> Vikasss: ask away
[17:00] <davey_> is there a command in the terminal so u can watch what java is doing when you start an application?
[17:00] <craigbass1976> ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/Un0NCEPz
[17:00] <samster34> ActionParsnip: I'm already using nomodeset
[17:00] <sary> naj42181: have this driver=iwlwifi loaded for Intel Centrino Advanced-N + WiMAX 625 .. is this the correct driver o be in use ?!
[17:01] <Vikasss> my installation take a hell lot of time and the system heats up.
[17:01] <splnet> Bronze: not necessarily. you are assuming the network trouble are the same on the client and the server. Do we know that?
[17:01] <Vikasss> I have to poweroff
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> Guest5101: if you set the SATA to IDE compatibility mode, is it ok?
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> Vikasss: do you have switchable video chip (Intel and AMD / Nvidia)?
[17:01] <L3top> Guest5101: in the bios you may have to select a different SATA mode (AHCI, RAID, ide etc)
[17:01] <Vikasss> I have a laptop
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> samster34: is this on an installed OS, or the installation?
[17:01] <Vikasss> lenovo 450g
[17:01] <Guest5101> ActionParsnip: Let me try.
[17:02] <Bronze> splnet: based in his description above - cant ping certain web sites, his problem is with the connection dropping. while screen survives that, the copy process will not.
[17:02] <samster34> ActionParsnip: I can't install
[17:02] <samster34> ActionParsnip: this is what happens when I try to live boot or install
[17:02] <splnet> Bronze: well I was assuming that was the trouble on his client.
[17:02] <Vikasss> I have set the mode to SATA
[17:02] <samster34> ActionParsnip: I've also tried the alternate disc already
[17:02] <naj42181> sary: afk brb
[17:02] <Vikasss> still it doesnt work out
[17:03] <Guest5101> L3top: I don't think so since it was working perfectly. Everything was working fine, I turned the computer off and it never did turn off. I had to reboot it manually and after that it never booted again.
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> Vikasss: try the boot option:  nouveau.blacklist=1
[17:03] <sary> naj42181: Tyt , make sure to check back with us here.
[17:03] <Vikasss> how do I do that?
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> samster34: tried Xubuntu? The default kernel is slightly different
[17:03] <splnet> Bronze: but yeah, if the trouble is on his server, then I agree fix that first.
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> !bootoption | Vikasss
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> Vikasss: instead of immediately asking, try searching a little
[17:04] <Rexter> i'm missing the boot animated splash screen. Is this a plymouth issue?
[17:04] <Bronze> splnet: yup, gotta find the issue. I suspect its a timeout.
[17:04] <Vikasss> I did but didn't get much. Also I had installed Redhad earlier but it went smooth
[17:04] <FeNiXx> ciao a tutti
[17:04] <samster34> ActionParsnip: no, but I have tried Mint, debian, gentoo, ubuntu 10.04, I'm sure I'm forgetting some
[17:04] <trism> Bronze: that said, it doesn't look like ntop uses upstart yet, so something like: sudo update-rc.d -f ntop remove; would probably work better
[17:04] <Vikasss> Ubuntu is where I'm facing the problem
[17:04] <presidentskroob> Hi all, I'm new to ubuntu and am wondering if anyone can suggest Usage monitoring software for my home network. Thanks!
[17:04] <samster34> ActionParsnip: windows 7 of course runs fine. >_>
[17:04] <log> !it | FeNiXx
[17:05] <ActionParsnip> samster34: not of course really
[17:05] <L3top> Guest5101: had you rebooted before? Or was this the first reboot?
[17:05] <Vikasss> But I shall surely look at the ubuntu help.
[17:05] <Vikasss> But I shall surely look at the ubuntu help
[17:05] <Vikasss> Thanks....
[17:05] <Guest5101> L3top: I have plenty of times.
[17:05] <samster34> ActionParsnip: the thing is, I don't want to run windows on it, but that's all that seems to work so far.
[17:05] <Rexter> has the animated splash been removed from 12.04?
[17:06] <Bronze> trism: yes that would work, but I actually want to keep the package installed. just want to configure it to run manually
[17:06] <cowdog1> hello
[17:06] <L3top> Guest5101: I would then boot to the live disk and run fsck -f /dev/sda1  (assuming my partition was AT /dev/sda1)
[17:06] <ActionParsnip> samster34: what is the make and model of the syste (if you have one)?
[17:06] <cowdog1> ok why
[17:06] <trism> Bronze: that won't remove the package, just the links in /etc/rc?.d/
[17:07] <Guest5101> L3top: But I can't boot even from a live disk if the SATA controller is enabled.
[17:07] <cowdog1> k
[17:07] <stripe> how do I reduce the size of the de3sktop so that it will fit in my monitor, at the moment I have no access to any of the controls
[17:07] <Guest5101> L3top: My harddrives are not accessible.
[17:07] <samster34> ActionParsnip: it's a Fujitsu-Siemens prebuilt...something. intel Q8300 LGA775, 2x2 GB DDR2, an nvidia 9800 GT, motherboard seems noname
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> Guest5101: try the SATA-IDE option in BIOS
[17:07] <trism> Bronze: the upstart way described above only works if the service has a .conf file in /etc/init, which I don't see in the ntop package, only a script in /etc/init.d/
[17:07] <samster34> ActionParsnip: also, it has an nforce chipset
[17:07] <L3top> Guest5101: if you cant boot to a CD with sata enabled then you have a hardware problem.
[17:08] <ActionParsnip> samster34: what model Fujitsu-Siemens ?
[17:08] <L3top> ActionParsnip: he had been running the install fine after several reboots
[17:08] <Bronze> trism: looking, brb
[17:08] <ActionParsnip> L3top: worth a try
[17:08] <L3top> Guest5101: However, it is possible your bios glitched and changed modes due to somethng strange
[17:08] <samster34> ActionParsnip: Esprimo P1500
[17:08] <L3top> ActionParsnip: agreed
[17:09] <samster34> ActionParsnip: Mi4W - D2950
[17:09] <ActionParsnip> samster34: does it have the nvidia GPU?
[17:09] <samster34> ActionParsnip: not the one it shipped with, that was a GT 420 / GT 220
[17:09] <samster34> ActionParsnip: has a 9800 GT currently
[17:10] <ActionParsnip> samster34: tried the boot option:  nouveau.blacklist=1
[17:10] <Guest5101> L3top: Nope. I have changed to default settings. It was like that before anyway. I did disable the SATA controller, booted with a usb but when I went back to the BIOS and enabled the SATA controller it froze.
[17:10] <samster34> not yet, I will, gotta leave for a bit. testing the memory again in the meantime. thanks so far!
[17:11] <Guest5101> ActionParsnip: Now I get seven dashes and hangs.
[17:12] <stripe> hello, I still need some help here
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> Guest5101: what GPU do you use?
[17:13] <Guest5101> L3top: ATI 5650
[17:14] <craigbass1976> ActionParsnip, the update hogs out when running from another box (one using en ethernet card) as well; I'm pretty sure it's my ISP.  I just know that when I call they'll want to knwo my OS and then blame it on that.
[17:15] <L3top> Guest5101: default settings may not be IDE compatability mode... but frankly, this sounds like a mobo problem to me. If you cant boot to CD or DVD without DISABLING SATA then something is very wrong.
[17:15] <L3top> Guest5101: mobo or drive
[17:15] <stripe> anyone know where I can go to get some help
[17:16] <Guest5101> L3top: The CD/DVD drive works, the Hard disks are fine. Of that I am 100%.

[17:16] <ActionParsnip> craigbass1976: yeah they love doing that
[17:16] <L3top> I am trying to help you stripe. You never returned the result of lspci -nn | grep VGA to me
[17:16] <Guest5101> L3top: I do suspect it's a motherboard problem.
[17:16] <stripe> I have asked the question and there is no help-
[17:16] <L3top> Guest5101: Ok. Do you have another hardrive?
[17:17] <L3top> stripe read my reply.
[17:17] <ActionParsnip> stripe: if nobody knows, how do you expect anyone to answer exactly?
[17:17] <ActionParsnip> stripe: think about it
[17:17] <Guest5101> L3top: I have three.
[17:17] <wylde> !details | stripe
[17:17] <stripe> LO£top as I explained I am using another distro so that I can access xchat, and I cant run to OS at once
[17:17] <L3top> You have 3 gpus?
[17:18] <L3top> Then I missed it stripe. Sorry.
[17:18] <stopostit21> Hi!
[17:18] <MonkeyDust> stripe  it's easier if you just repeated the question
[17:18] <stripe> np L3top
[17:18] <L3top> It is heplful if you get my name in the post stripe
[17:18] <L3top> perfect.... one second

[17:19] <krfkeith> hi, I'm trying to set up xubuntu to serve some files for a PXE boot. I'm a little confused on setting up the dhcp/tftp server
[17:20] <elspuddy> can some one please tell me how to use the scp command, i can only understand the scp user@host bit , all i want to do is copy a folder over from one pc to anohter
[17:20] <wylde> krfkeith: which part?
[17:20] <krfkeith> my regular network is under interface wlan0, and used the 192.168.1.x subnet, I want the PXE "network" to use the 192.168.10.x subnet, what should I put under "gateway" in the interfaces file?
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> elspuddy: nautilus can connect to SFTP
[17:20] <L3top> Sorry I mistook your post for stripes Guest5101. Are you saying you have 3 drives attached?
[17:20] <krfkeith> *uses
[17:20] <Guest5101> L3top: no, I have 3 hard drives
[17:21] <splnet> elspuddy: scp -pr SRC user@remote:
[17:21] <wylde> krfkeith: are you using one nic or two?
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> krfkeith: the address the system will get internet from
[17:21] <krfkeith> I'm using eth0 for PXE
[17:21] <L3top> If you plug a different HD in can you boot to cd?
[17:21] <krfkeith> I don't care about forwarding
[17:21] <L3top> Guest5101: ^
[17:22] <halfie__> how do I disable sounds in ubuntu 12.04?
[17:22] <krfkeith> it's just a really small BIOS file for this thin client thing
[17:22] <wylde> krfkeith: then gateway = the ip of your machine/router tha provides net access.
[17:22] <L3top> stripe what OS are you on currently?
[17:22] <vector> elspuddy:  scp <source> <destination>    (if you're copying an entire directory you'll want to use the -r "recursive" option)  both source and destination can be either a local file/directory or a remote file/directory in the form you mentioned  "user@host:/path/to/some/file/or/dir"
[17:22] <krfkeith> wylde, ah okay
[17:23] <vector> elspuddy: example... copy directory /home/user to /tmp on a remote host: "scp -r /home/user username@host:/tmp/"
[17:23] <stripe> L3top lmde
[17:23] <wylde> krfkeith: I use LTSP to boot 2 machines on my network :) it's a handy way to make good use of old hardware :)
[17:23] <elspuddy> vector, ad i do that from the server (want to copy to) box ?
[17:23] <L3top> so that is linux, can you please give me the output of lspci -nn | grep VGA   stripe, or am I missing something?
[17:24] <Fat-Thing> hmmm can i copy the irc script from the normal mIRC to XChat? get tired typing /join #channel not like the mIRC /j <channel> is it possible?
[17:24] <vector> elspuddy: you just swap the order... so you're on a server and want to copy /home/user  from another machine to local /tmp you would do "scp -r user@otherhost:/home/user  /tmp/"
[17:25] <midnightmagic> i am trying to install a cli-only version of dspam on my ubuntu 10.04 lucid machine. I altered the /etc/dspam/dspam.conf and then removed dspam. however, when reinstalling it, it doesn't recreate the config files. is there a way to force it to reinstall the dspam config files in /etc/dspam ?
[17:25] <mietek> Apparently it's possible to hide the network indicator now -- http://iloveubuntu.net/system-settings-received-1-click-option-showhide-network-indicator-ubuntu-1204 -- but I don't have that checkbox! Why?

[17:26] <infid_> how can i set up a webcam on my ubuntu laptop and be able to see it from any computer through a website?
[17:26] <L3top> You should first install cheese infid_, and see that your webcam can be used.
[17:26] <stripe> L3top  sudo lspci -nn | grep vga  produces no output
[17:26] <L3top> VGA
[17:26] <L3top> or grep -i
[17:27] <L3top> don't need sudo stripe
[17:27] <notjoe> anyone ever have an issue where your resolution was 1920x1080 but the menus, texts, and windows look as if it was 640x480?
[17:27] <midnightmagic> found my solution:  dpkg -P dspam  -- will purge everything including config files.. yay./

[17:28] <APoulos> quick question - would it be a good idea to backup your .gconf folder at a better point in time when your system was running right?
[17:28] <vector> elspuddy: np. haha good plan.
[17:29] <APoulos> ok, tl;dr - is it a good idea to backup the .gconf folder?
[17:29] <L3top> Nice card stripe... You will want to install the proprietary driver is my guess. This can be achieved in terminal with sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[17:29] <APoulos> for restoration when you reinstall ubuntu from a bad screw up
[17:29] <L3top> stripe you might also run update-pciids
[17:30] <splnet> L3top: what does update-pciids do?
[17:30] <stripe> L3top will go and try thanks
[17:30] <L3top> updates your PCI Id database, which helps identify the HW better splnet
[17:31] <APoulos> ..
[17:31] <Max^> cool
[17:31] <wwd> Looking for advice I am trying to make my system recognize partitions and label them as the same /dev/sdx# device upon reboots. I see that using uuid's and fstab I can make a device autmount to a particular place on the filesystem, but the devices I am using won't be mounted, they will be part of a raid-5 mdadm array. I simply want one physical disk to always be /dev/sdx so when it fails I know which one it is so i can quickly replace it. Perhaps I am miss
[17:31] <wwd> something obvious. Thanks in advance.
[17:32] <ActionParsnip> L3top: seems to be a Nvidia GTS 450   (based on 10de:1245)
[17:32] <APoulos> well then
[17:32] <L3top> It is... ")
[17:32] <Guest5101> L3top: If I boot from a IDE drive and am able to access my SATA drives without any problem, what do you think the problem could be?
[17:32] <ngomes> how is called the network manager support channel ?
[17:33] <APoulos> so no one can tell me if its a good idea to backup the .gconf folder or not?
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> wwd: I believe you can make udev rules to make devices take certain names
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> ngomes: if it's under Ubuntu, then here
[17:33] <L3top> Guest5101: I want to run fsck -f /dev/sdXY   where X is the drive number and Y is the partition
[17:33] <mado> howdy folks! ... some guy in #libreoffice told me to come here for my issue ... you see ... i was chatting somewhere else (http://the4gospels.net/) ... and i tried copy-pasting a line someone sent me to libreoffice ... in windows this worked fine but in ubuntu 12.04 it does not
[17:33] <mado> any ideas?
[17:33] <trism> mietek: that option was removed later in the cycle, see: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/1:3.3.90-0ubuntu2
[17:33] <ngomes> ActionParsnip, i want to discuss something specific about nm
[17:34] <wwd> okay udev rules.
[17:34] <Guest5101> L3top: Anyway I can boot the Ubuntu drive which is SATA, but it doesn't finish loading Ubuntu.
[17:34] <L3top> Guest5101: I get it now... duh, your CD drive is on a later assigned SATA port
[17:34] <wwd> there isn't a file where i can say, I wash this uuid to always be this /dev/sdx#
[17:34] <L3top> Guest5101: same still applies. I would run fsck
[17:35] <APoulos> so nobody can give me an answer?
[17:35] <L3top> Guest5101: from anything OTHER than it that will boot and is linuxy
[17:35] <trism> mietek: as it mentions though, the key is still there, if you install gconf-editor, then /apps/nm-applet/show-applet uncheck
[17:35] <APoulos> not even the slightest?
[17:35] <L3top> !patience | APoulos
[17:35] <mado> APoulos, i guess you have to wait like me :)
[17:35] <mietek> trism: gconf or dconf?
[17:36] <mietek> So confusing
[17:36] <trism> mietek: gconf, the settings haven't migrated in ubuntu yet
[17:36] <mietek> Thank you
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> APoulos: sure, if you need the settings it holds, back it up.It's not even 2Mb here
[17:37] <APoulos> ActionParsnip: because Im going to reinstall my whole 12.04 - I purged evolution not knowing it would uninstall Gnome shell and gnome with it
[17:37] <L3top> Why on earth would they send you here mado? It is clearly an application issue. The OS is not blocking you from copying and pasting. Out of curiosity did you try using the right click cp/paste?
[17:37] <Guest5101> L3top: I will install ubuntu on the IDE drive and boot it, and check the SATA drive. I will get back to you.
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> APoulos: yeah, evolution has a weird dep of one of the gnome panel packages
[17:37] <Guest5101> Thanks L3top and ActionParsnip!
[17:37] <madsj> hi; I keep getting a conflict with firefox and adobe-flashplugin
[17:38] <L3top> Or if you had a thumbdrive you could just drop the CD to it, probably faster Guest5101
[17:38] <mado> L3top, ... i marked the text with my mouse ... and tried it via CTRL+C / CTRL+V :)
[17:38] <stripe> L3top already running the latest version of nvidia-current, also ran update-pciids without success
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> madsj: i've seen 2 users with that on launchpad too
[17:38] <APoulos> ActionParsnip: so best course of action is to reinstall then?
[17:38] <madsj> in ubuntu 12.04; I've tried "sudo aptitude install -f" and nothing helps
[17:38] <APoulos> ActionParsnip: format and reinstall 12.04?
[17:38] <L3top> mado: try using right click, just to see if it is any different
[17:39] <APoulos> ActionParsnip: because APTonCD doesnt help at all in reinstalling Lib files
[17:39] <L3top> stripe: Okey doke... are you saying update-pciids did not update ? Or just that it made no difference... I would at this point run nvidia-xconfigure
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> APoulos: gives a nice clean 12.04 install :)
[17:39] <heliAAA> is alt+enter a special shortcut in ubuntu/unity?
[17:40] <mado> i get an error-message again L3top ... sorry i forgot to mention before that i got one :)
[17:40] <openeye> Hi all, is there already a bug report for the fonts dissapearing on ubuntu 12.04?
[17:40] <APoulos> ActionParsnip: yep, time to fire up the unetbootin
[17:40] <APoulos> :)
[17:40] <APoulos> thanks guys
[17:40] <APoulos> ActionParsnip: thanks mate
[17:40] <madsj> also, I was an idiot and deleting /var/lib/dpkg/info/emacs* and would highly appreciate getting back those files
[17:40] <L3top> ahh...yes that would be an important detail mado... what is the error?
[17:40] <wylde> if I wanted to make a script to backup my entire configuration. (just configs NOT all the actual packages) which directories would be critical to backup? /etc and ... some in /var ?
[17:40] <Guest5101> L3top: Oh but wait...If I can't boot from the usb then it makes no sense to install it on the IDE drive. As long as the Ubuntu has to deal with the SATA controller it won't finish booting from any device, be it a CD, USB, IDE HDD...etc...
[17:41] <madsj> can someone make a zip file with them? I suppose they're independent of the installation, as long as ubuntu 12.04 is installed
[17:41] <mado> L3top, ... well please bear with me ... i'm a a bit stressed :D ...
[17:41] <stripe> L3top pciids ran but made no difference will try nvidia-xconfigure
[17:41] <madsj> (installation, setup as well the other packages)
[17:41] <mado> L3top, it says "Gewünschtes Zwischenablage-Format steht nicht zur Verfügung" ... "Zwischenablage = clipboard or something as far as i know"
[17:41] <mado> soo L3top ... "a certain clipboard-format isn't available"
[17:42] <L3top> I thought you booted to ide Guest5101
[17:42] <midnightmagic> FYI: dspam does NOT work in standalone command-line mode on Ubuntu right now.
[17:42] <samster34> ActionParsnip: alright I'm back, first test pass of this memory module went without errors...
[17:43] <Guest5101> L3top: I from a USB when I disabled the SATA controller in the BIOS.
[17:43] <L3top> Well that would be why they sent you here mado. Unfortunately I have no idea on that, hopefully someone else will
[17:43] <L3top> Then how did you access the sata drive Guest5101?
[17:44] <Guest5101> L3top: I had a live usb from which I booted. At that moment I didn't need to access the SATA drive.
[17:44] <avis> what release of ubuntu uses the least resources ?
 L3top: If I boot from a IDE drive and am able to access my SATA drives without any problem, what do you think the problem could be?
[17:44] <Guest5101> L3top: The sata controller was disabled.
[17:45] <avis> supported
[17:45] <nimbiotics> can someone please recommend a personal document manager for ubuntu? TIA!
[17:45] <xangua> avis: lubuntu
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> avis: Lubuntu
[17:45] <me> nick ApocGoD
[17:45] <Guest5101> L3top: that was a question :).
[17:45] <avis> other than lubuntuj or xubuntu
[17:45] <samster34> so, how many memory test passes should I run before I am to be satisfied that the memory is not the problem? just the one pass on this single 2GB stick took 40 minutes
[17:45] <xangua> avis: kubuntu¿
[17:45] <avis> i have dual core 2.9 and 3 gb and my system crawls
[17:45] <mado> brb folks ... need to answer a call
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> avis: What video chip?
[17:45] <avis> xangua,i an not suicidal
[17:46] <avis> ActionParsnip, nvidia
[17:46] <xangua> ...
[17:46] <avis> its just an amd x2
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> avis: did you install the proprietary nvidia driver?
[17:46] <avis> yes
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> avis: amdx2 is more than all my systems combined :)
[17:46] <avis> is natty a little heavy ?
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> avis: natty is fine, have you tried Precise?
[17:47] <MonkeyDust> nimbiotics  https://zfranciscus.wordpress.com/2010/04/11/miranda-your-personal-ubuntu-file-manager/
[17:47] <L3mce> Sorry I dropped Guest5101
[17:47] <avis> i do believe that requires more cpu resources
[17:47] <Guest5101> L3mce: np
[17:48] <delac> how to edit groups?
[17:48] <samster34> ActionParsnip: how many memory test passes should I run? the first one completeted fine, but this takes forever..
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> samster34: just one will do
[17:48] <samster34> ActionParsnip: alright, then I'll try blacklisting nouveau now
[17:49] <ActionParsnip> delac: edit i what way?
[17:49] <samster34> blacklist.nouveau = 1 was it?
[17:49] <avis> samster34, 3  and your memory should definitely be good or bad
[17:49] <ActionParsnip> samster34: yes without the spaces
[17:49] <nimbiotics> MonkeyDust: THX
[17:49] <brontosaurusrex> what would be a media library / file indexer or whatever is called software to go with this description : http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=PFRSSGL1 ?
[17:50] <samster34> ActionParsnip: any particular place in the boot entry that Is hould put this? before the --, after?
[17:50] <L3mce> This reeks of bad HW Guest5101... I would go ahead and pull the drive, and try another. Or do the original suggestion, not setting hardware defaults in bios, but explicitly trying to set IDE mode. If your bios somehow glitched, it would almost certainly reset to defaults, which is probably something other than IDE compatability mode... just something worth checking
[17:50] <delac> ActionParsnip: the user account manager previously had "edit groups" option too. is there a graphical way to do that anymore?
[17:50] <whoever> isn't 12.04 in the repos yet , i thaught i saw it this morning ?
[17:50] <ActionParsnip> samster34: delete:  quiet splash    and put it in it's place
[17:50] <stripe> L3top nvidia-xconfigure command not recognised, but managed to ease the screen over and access system settings and from there alterd resolution so thats that sorted thanks
[17:51] <brontosaurusrex> + is there an command line xml utility that can search a certain xml format/tree of some sort?
[17:51] <ActionParsnip> whoever: 12.04 of what?
[17:51] <MonkeyDust> whoever  12.04 is an ubuntu version, it is not something in the repos
[17:51] <L3mce> 12.04 is released whoever. You will not be able to upgrade in update manager until there is a point release, you can do upgrade using the -d switch from terminal... if that addresses your question.
[17:52] <L3mce> that may just be for 1004 actually... whoever
[17:52]  * L3mce never upgrades... always starts over
[17:52] <whoever> ActionParsnip: of ubuntu
[17:53] <root> C3
[17:53] <root> here
[17:53] <root> ....
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> whoever: it's released, it's may now which would make it 12.05
[17:53] <Sample> Q: I'm having unusual issues with tasking where at times certain apps (yesterday Pidgin, today Xchat) end up getting hidden and not restoring.  I can't find them with Mod+W, and clicking them will take me to the correct desktop but the actual application is no where to be screen.  It's as if it never restores from a hidden/minimized state
[17:53] <samster34> ActionParsnip: okay, get stuck here now:  http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21007284/WP_000094.jpg
[17:53] <Guest92888> NICK <Cr@zy3xpl0!t>
[17:53] <Sample> Has anyone had similar problems or know anything about this?
[17:53] <Guest92888> NICK <C3>
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> samster34: if you disable USB (assuming youaren't booting using USB)
[17:53] <Guest92888> sup ?
[17:54] <whoever> MonkeyDust: i could had swarn i saw ubuntu 12.04 LTS in synaptic this morning
[17:54] <ActionParsnip> !rootirc | Guest92888
[17:54] <samster34> ActionParsnip: I am booting from usb :/
[17:54] <Guest92888> me from virtualbox

[17:54] <oCean> Guest92888: do you have an ubuntu support question?
[17:54] <dexcitrix> anyone know any good place to get thinkpad t410i laptop's keyboard, it seems hard to find at my local sources (finnish web sale etc etc)
[17:54] <Guest92888> it's backtrack dude
[17:54] <Guest92888> !
[17:54] <Guest92888> isn't it cool ?
[17:54] <oCean> Guest92888: that is not supported here
[17:54] <MonkeyDust> Guest92888  join #backtrack-linux
[17:54] <Guest92888> cool
[17:54] <oCean> Guest92888: chit chat is in #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:54] <ActionParsnip> Guest92888: backtrack isn't supported here
[17:55] <Guest92888> thank ya
[17:55] <unit3> Just discovered that prevu has been deprecated in 12.04 in favour of backportpackage. However, I can't figure out how to get backportpackage to work the way prevu used to.
[17:55] <samster34> ActionParsnip: even then, how would I disable USB? I have no otpion to turn it off completely in the BIOS
[17:55] <unit3> Given a URL to a dsc, how do I get it to build a local package for install?
[17:55] <unit3> backportpackage -w somedir http://path/to/package.dsc just seems to produce a new set of source files, not a built package. :(
[17:56] <ActionParsnip> samster34: looks like you need a boot option or two, you may find how-tos online using the last few lines of your output
[17:56] <Guest5101> L3mce: Thanks for your help.
[17:57] <L3mce> Guest5101: did you figure it out?
[17:58] <samster34> ActionParsnip: what exactly am I looking to do, disable ehci?
[17:58] <Guest5101> L3mce: I think it's a hardware problem. I will have to ditch my SATA drives till I can buy a new motherboard or a new computer.
[17:58] <beefman> i just updated to 12.04, got it booted correctly, and reverted to gnome classic.  was using xfce before update but don't like it
[17:59] <bagels> does any wacom tablet work well with Precise? I'm thinking about buying one
[17:59] <nimbiotics> MonkeyDust: that is a file manager; what i'm looking for is a document manager; a software to catalog, obtain, sort and so on, documents
[17:59] <beefman> i had configured wicd before the prior update, so it's overwriting my resolv.conf, but network manager is configured to add dns servers i want
[17:59] <beefman> is fixing this simply a matter of removing wicd?
[17:59] <Bronze> trism - found it , apparently ntop is not in the upstart system, so you rename the file S20ntop (under rc2.d) to K20ntop and run an update script: update-rc.d ntop defaults    which spits out an error messages. to re-enable you change the name back and run the same script., See "README" in /etc/rc2.d (and other places I bet).  its essentally a manual work around for system services <cough>  I means 'jobs'  that are not setup to b under upstart yet.
[17:59] <midnightmagic> what's that cool auto-deb builder that you can use when creating a deb from a tarball?
[18:00] <smcrossman> I'm having a somewhat serious issue....can someone help me?
[18:01] <MonkeyDust> smcrossman  if you're sweet
[18:01] <Bronze> smcrossman: if you tell the channel more then they will know if they can help you.
[18:01] <smcrossman> haha
[18:01] <smcrossman> okay...well I goofed yesterday so now I can't log in with my userid
[18:02] <toastedpenguin> which repo contains the dev packages for lucid?
[18:02] <smcrossman> basically my /home partition doesn't exist (it does...but....)
[18:02] <smcrossman> I have gotten in and have admin but I don't know how to get the partition mountable again
[18:03] <krfkeith> urgh, I'm so lost: so I connect to the internet through wlan0, I want to configure dhcp server to look at eth0, and then run a TFTP server there
[18:03] <chronos> Someone can take a look on this BUG: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python2.7/+bug/992760, I guess is important
[18:04] <L3tops> Ok... if it is asking for a username, then it is mounted. What I would do smcrossman is boot to a live cd, chroot in, recreate your user and add him to the admin group.
[18:04] <trism> Bronze: glad you got it working
[18:04] <_joseph> Hi all, does Linux (in my case Kubuntu) have a system restore, I dont know what I did but the display is very huge and I can't fix it.
[18:04] <samster34> ActionParsnip: I can't find what I need to do :/
[18:04] <krfkeith> how do I set up the dhcp server and keep it from interfering with my normal connection
[18:04] <L3tops> smcrossman: which we will be happy to help you do.
[18:04] <Bronze> trism: or, "stopped working" :-)
[18:05] <ZenMaster> Hi, I have put my server as a DMZ. I can't get ftp connections from the outside but Http is working for instance.
[18:05] <ZenMaster> UFW status is off.
[18:05] <ZenMaster> (temporarilty).
[18:06] <Dr_willis> _joseph,  you mean the res is 'low' so its showing big fonts/icons/window borders? or the res is high? showing tiny icons
[18:07] <_joseph> low
[18:07] <trism> Bronze: indeed
[18:07] <smcrossman> L3tops:  I worked out the username....it isn't allowing anything but root and root gets an error message as well
[18:07] <Dr_willis> _joseph,  theres a display/monitors setting tool that may need looked at. or your video card drivers may be messed up.
[18:07] <_joseph> I think it's the second one
[18:08] <L3tops> smcrossman: there is no root password. I am happy to help you fix this, but my opinion on how is not likely to change.
[18:08] <_joseph> I've been trying to install nvidia drivers for the last week now and can't get any help other then google. so yeah i probably messed them up
[18:08] <smcrossman> no its getting a superblock wrong fs or something
[18:08] <L3tops> That is a different issue which will also require booting to live cd smcrossman.
[18:09] <_joseph> Let me try some things and I'll be right back
[18:09] <smcrossman> I think what caused it was that I forgot that I was still copying my network drive over to my home and it might have been copying a windows .iso when i shut down
[18:09] <samster34> AhhhHA! the "noapic" boot option worked! finally! video driver works too! YES
[18:10] <samster34> ..so how do I make this permanent, so it works even after I install ubuntu?
[18:10] <Eidel> Does anyone know how to configure libnotify? Preferably through a GUI
[18:10] <L3tops> That shouldn't the problem you are having smcrossman.
[18:10] <L3tops> cause*
[18:10] <brontosaurusrex> is there a nepomuk for gnome?
[18:10] <smcrossman> L3tops:  okay....I have the live cd and can do that
[18:10] <smcrossman> That's how I know the /home is still there and at least the directory
[18:11] <samster34> quick question, does ubuntu 12.04 support plug and play of SATA II  drives?
[18:11] <smcrossman> L3Tops:  Once I boot with the live cd do I choose install or trial
[18:11] <L3tops> smcrossman: / is your root directory /home contains user specific directories... and... some other stuff
[18:11] <L3tops> trial smcrossman
[18:11] <lorenzo> hi, I have set ubuntu 10.04 as router following this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Router . now my host machine sees the connection i created but can't connect to it - looks like it times out. been working on it for days, I am puzzled. please help me
[18:11] <kpel> is it possible to upgrade from 10.04 LTS directly to 12.04 LTS?
[18:11] <smcrossman> L3tops:  Yes....last install I placed /home on a separate partiton
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> lorenzo: can you ping the system? Can you ping <IP_ADDRESS>?
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> kpel: yes, that is fully supported
[18:12] <L3tops> smcrossman: /root is your roots "home" directory
[18:12] <smcrossman> I can go into current install now with NEW admin user (just created) or on guest
[18:12] <whoever> can i upgrade to ubuntu 12.05 64 without burning the iso and rebooting
[18:12] <kpel> ActionParsnip: thanks. For some reason the software update tool doesn't detect a new release, if I set it to notify me for LTS releases only. Any ideas?
[18:12] <L3tops> I would address the fs superblock error stuff first smcrossman
[18:12] <smcrossman> L3tops:  I don't do anything with /root....I'm dumb but not that dumb!
[18:13] <lorenzo> ActionParsnip, no, if i try to connect my host to my router machine the connection wont be established, looks like it times out. Not even connecting the two machines with ethernet. Makes me think the DCHP file is not configured properly but I am lost.
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> kpel: run:  sudo do-release-upgrade
[18:13] <L3tops> Let me know when live is up smcrossman. I was simply saying that what you are describing does not indicate that a /home directory exists, though I dont know why it wouldn't...
[18:13] <smcrossman> L3tops:  is there a good link or somehting to help me iwth the superblock?
[18:13] <brontosaurusrex> is this http://projects.gnome.org/tracker/documentation.html a part of 12.04?
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> lorenzo: if you set a manual IP in the right subnet is it ok?
[18:13] <kpel> ActionParsnip: thanks, will do :)
[18:13] <L3tops> Yes... IRC, to me. :P
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> !info tracker precise
[18:14] <DrPOo_44> what command do I use to see the system errors at boot time?
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> DrPOo_44: dmesg | less    will help
[18:14] <L3tops> smcrossman: when you get into live boot do NOT attempt to navigate your drive
[18:14] <smcrossman> L3tops:  do you want me to use live CD and go  into a trial...just run from it?  right?
[18:14] <lorenzo> ActionParsnip, I tried to set a static IP but I dont know how. can you point me to a good guide or walk me through it=? thanks
[18:14] <L3tops> Correct smcrossman
[18:14] <Fyodorovna> whoever, from what release to 12.04, and a reboot will be needed at the least after the upgrade.
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> lorenzo: use network manager...
[18:15] <smcrossman> okay...I'll do that and I will get set up and come back or maybe I'll get this set up on the netbook whatever.....I will be back....
[18:15] <L3tops> The reason for this smcrossman is that doing so will try and mount it, and we need it unmounted. I am assuming your install partition is at /dev/sda1    do you know differently smcrossman?
[18:15] <jwtiyar> how to moce close.min,max to right side on 12.04
[18:16] <starlocke> so.... how is the HUD activated... ?
[18:16] <iceroot> !controls | jwtiyar
[18:17] <xangua> starlocke: press alt i believe
[18:17] <starlocke> hm...
[18:17] <auronandace> starlocke: press the super key
[18:17] <jwtiyar> starlocke, press alt
[18:17] <starlocke> alt!
[18:17] <L3tops> afk
[18:17] <starlocke> awesome.
[18:17] <starlocke> even simplier than i expected it to be :D
[18:17] <starlocke> i was trying alt-super, ctrl-super... etc XD
[18:17] <lorenzo> ActionParsnip, what values should I enter? the address for the connection would be the ip of my router machine? thanks
[18:17] <starlocke> thanks :D
[18:17] <mado> L3tops, and others .. i'm almost back
[18:17] <iceroot> hud is only availbe for unity?
[18:18] <auronandace> iceroot: yes
[18:18] <whoever> Fyodorovna: 11.10
[18:18] <samster34> what's a good remote desktop application that will let me control my ubuntu desktop from my win7 machine? (over gigabit LAN)
[18:19] <whoever> Fyodorovna: and yes i am sure it will need a shutdown -r now :-)
[18:19] <jwtiyar> iceroot, thanks
[18:19] <deebee396> is the ubuntu android only for phone manufacturers, or is it just not ready for release yet?
[18:19] <iceroot> samster34: vnc, teamviewer
[18:19] <Fyodorovna> whoever, ubuntu is designed to upgrade from release to release so yes you can, make sure your backed up first if possible.
[18:19] <iceroot> deebee396: just not released
[18:19] <jwtiyar> i have added my kurdish aramic keyboard but after restarting my pc they keyboard does not work on my kurdish keyboard
[18:19] <samster34> iceroot: does teamviewer work when one of the two is offline?
[18:19] <deebee396> k thx
[18:20] <iceroot> samster34: "yes" but you need the current id of the client
[18:20] <Escherial> hey, i've installed ubuntu over windows on my machine, so that the windows partition is mounted at /host
[18:20] <iceroot> samster34: or use freenx, nothing is faster then freenx but its not showing the desktop its starting a new session
[18:20] <whoever> Fyodorovna: yes i have an image but can't seem to get it with dist-upgrade or synaptic
[18:21] <Escherial> i'd like to decrease its size so i can install ubuntu 12 (my ubuntu partition is currently too small), but for some reason i can't unmount /host even though nothing is using it afaict
[18:21] <iceroot> !freenx | samster34
[18:21] <whoever> Fyodorovna: so now the question is how
[18:21] <Escherial> i'm using gparted to attempt to resize the partition, by the way
[18:21] <deebee396>  my power went out when upgrading to 12.04, ubuntu went all corrupt, gotta transfer all files and re install now D:
[18:21] <samster34> iceroot: hm...well I don't really care, can I set it up so there is no other session running by default, and the one freenx starts is the only one?
[18:21] <iceroot> samster34: yes, thats the default
[18:22] <samster34> iceroot: that should work nicely then
[18:22] <james296> can anyone tell me how to change the screen resolution for the login screen? I cant even find the xorg.conf file in the etc filder
[18:22] <iceroot> samster34: and its fast like your are directly on the desktop
[18:22] <jwtiyar> i have added my kurdish aramic keyboard but after restarting my pc they keyboard does not work on my kurdish keyboard
[18:22] <iksik_> hm
[18:22] <samster34> iceroot: what about a windows client for this
[18:22] <Fyodorovna> whoever, go to synaptic-settings-repositories=updates then set the drop down to al release then run a update and it should show in the update manager
[18:22] <iceroot> samster34: rdesktop or an freenx client (see link from ubottu )
[18:23] <iksik_> is it possible to change this desktop switcher from square to line? (12.04/unity)
[18:23] <samster34> iceroot: thanks very much :)
[18:23] <toastedpenguin> noticed that my lucid install doesn't find a lot of -dev packages, how can I add a repo that contains these?
[18:23] <iceroot> toastedpenguin: which package for example?
[18:23] <james296> anyone?
[18:23] <whoever> Fyodorovna: i think i got it i thought i clicked upgrade but i only upgraded system apps thx
[18:23] <toastedpenguin> ruby1.8-dev
[18:23] <iceroot> !info ruby1.8 lucid
[18:24] <iceroot> !info ruby1.8-dev lucid
[18:24] <Fyodorovna> iksik_, not in the left panel, docky will show a straight line if you have switched to the cube.
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> james296: if you edit /etc/default/grub   it may respect the res there
[18:24] <Monotoko> hey guys, does anyone know how I can connect to the Internet through vpn-only? If the VPN drops I want my entire network dropping along with it
[18:24] <iceroot> toastedpenguin: its in the main repo
[18:24] <toastedpenguin> when I do a apt-cache search it doesnt find it
[18:24] <Escherial> ok, so i feel a little trapped on WUBI...i incorrectly chose too small of a partition and now i'm not sure what to do
[18:24] <Escherial> should i go back into windows to resize my ubuntu partition?
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> Monotoko: you'll need to use the route command to force all traffic through that
[18:24] <iceroot> toastedpenguin: please paste the output of "cat /etc/apt/sources.list"
[18:24] <iceroot> !paste | toastedpenguin
[18:25] <Monotoko> ty ActionParsnip, il go have a look :)
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> Escherial: you can use the liveCD to resize partition, be sure to run a full backup before you start
[18:25] <iceroot> ActionParsnip: he is using wubi
[18:25] <Monotoko> ActionParsnip, I don't know... he said WUBI
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> iceroot: gah
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> i hate wubi
[18:25] <Fyodorovna> Escherial, might you consider dual booting with partitions, wubi is a try out setup, god news is that you can convert that wubi to a partition install and resize all you want.
[18:26] <makol1995> hi all, i have the following question: my printer samsung network printer is marked with a red sign  in: system settings  --> printing.
[18:26] <Fyodorovna> s/god/good
[18:26] <makol1995> how can i fix this?
[18:26] <toastedpenguin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/960671/
[18:26] <sleepycat> Can someone with some knowledge of live-build take a look at my question on askubuntu: http://askubuntu.com/questions/129081/why-is-live-build-failing-to-find-this-package
[18:26] <iksik_> Fyodorovna: i'm not using a cube
[18:27] <smcrossman> L3tops et al:  I'm back and have the desktop booted into the live CD
[18:27] <geekbri> whats the difference between /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog on an ubuntu system?
[18:27] <Escherial> Fyodorovna: right, i'd like that, if it's fairly easy
[18:27] <L3tops> smcrossman: are you on that machine in here, or a different one?
[18:28] <iksik_> it's a square... unity got it to by default to switch desktops - but unity 2D, has got 'a line', and i want something like that, to switch them from left to right - not left/right/up/down
[18:28] <toastedpenguin> iceroot: ^^ incase you missed it
[18:28] <Fyodorovna> iksik_, the unity desktop is in square setting not sure you can get a straight line anyway in that setting you have a up and down and side to side to have all 4 virtuals
[18:28] <iksik_> Fyodorovna: correct
[18:28] <K4k> I have some files showing up with permissions as ????????? owner ? group ? How can I correct this, chmod gets Input/output error and find . -name file -exec chmod 755 {} \; gets the same error.
[18:28] <txdv> how can I determine whether linux uses 802.11b/g or n on my stick?
[18:28] <smcrossman> L3tops: I;m on the netbook here.....the desktop is the one I have the problem with....currently right next to each other
[18:29] <james296> well that didnt work, now what?
[18:29] <L3tops> Ok... please open a terminal in live boot and sudo apt-get install pastebinit     smcrossman
[18:29] <Fyodorovna> Escherial, here is the link you need it is a script look close I assume it still works. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1519354
[18:29] <james296> how can I change the resolution the login screen uses in vmware fusion?
[18:29] <iceroot> toastedpenguin: sudo apt-get update && apt-cache policy rubi1.8-dev  should show it in the main repo
[18:29] <HoNgOuRu> can't find the name of the desklet or program that shows system load (memory usage cpu etc...) it is  just text updating over the desktop wallpaper....does anybody knows??? gparted live distro uses it....
[18:30] <L3tops> smcrossman: fdisk -l | pastebinit        and just give me the trailing random part of the url same with mount | pastebinit
[18:30] <Escherial> ugh, creating a new partition is going to be painful, seeing as i'll have to do it in windows
[18:30] <xangua> !info conky
[18:30] <xangua> HoNgOuRu: you mean conky¿
[18:30] <Escherial> i don't have my live CD, either, and i don't even think i can use it anymore since the optical drive in my laptop is shot
[18:30] <auronandace> HoNgOuRu: conky
[18:30] <HoNgOuRu> xangua, I believe so
[18:30] <HoNgOuRu> thank you
[18:30] <HoNgOuRu> auronandace, thanks
[18:31] <patch> hey having some problem when updating (apt-get update) . It output "404 not found". Perhaps something wrong with my sources.list ?
[18:31] <Fyodorovna> Escherial, you can't create a partition for ubuntu in windows, but if you have W7 it has a virtual partitioner for resize the while using the OS.
[18:31] <Escherial> Fyodorovna: ah, neat :)
[18:32] <Escherial> well, i wish i could spend the day doing this, but i unfortunately have to get some actual work done :| i'll probably be back to ask questions later, though :)
[18:32] <Escherial> thanks for the advice so far
[18:32] <smcrossman> I;m not finding pastebinit
[18:32] <gr33n7007h> What is the file you edit for grub splash screen in 10.04?
[18:32] <L3tops> smcrossman: sudo apt-get update
[18:32] <Fyodorovna> Escherial, just make sure you understand the limitations in amount of primary and logical partitions on a single HD, logicals go in a extended type partition.
[18:32] <samster34> I'm trying to network my ubuntu machine to my windows 7 machine...ubuntu says it's connected (configured the IPs manually), but windows says "cable unplugged"....uh..?!
[18:33] <patch> How can i restore the sources list pleas?
[18:33] <L3tops> smcrossman: I don't really know your level of technical experience, do you know that your installed partition is /dev/sda1?
[18:33] <auronandace> patch: what ubuntu are you using?
[18:33] <Fyodorovna> patch, http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/
[18:34] <L3tops> patch: http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/
[18:34] <patch> auronandace, 12.04
[18:34] <L3tops> oh... lol... sorry
[18:34] <HoNgOuRu> cant configure conky, needs lua5.1 any ideas?
[18:34] <Fyodorovna> L3mce, jinx
[18:34] <HoNgOuRu> what do I have to install ?
[18:34] <Fyodorovna> L3tops, ^^
[18:34] <arnsa> guyz when I ./configure and "make" program, how do I run it?
[18:34] <auronandace> HoNgOuRu: tried installing lua?
[18:34] <HoNgOuRu> yes.
[18:34] <smcrossman> L3tops:  actually I have dual boot dev/sda7 = /  sda5 = swap and sda6 should be /home
[18:34] <HoNgOuRu> auronandace, dont have it in software center
[18:34] <Fat-Thing> is there any program in ubuntu like adobe audition? for making trans music? hehe
[18:35] <whoever> Fyodorovna: i am trying to upgrade but am getting  this error durring "ugrade channels "W:Failed to fetch http://deb.opera.com/opera/dists/stable/Release  Unable to find expected entry 'non-free/source/Sources' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file) . so how do i remove it or ignore it since the upgrade just stops
[18:35] <arnsa> guyz when I ./configure and "make" program, how do I run it?
[18:35] <patch> L3tops, Can i add them to 12.04 ?
[18:35] <auronandace> !info lua5.1
[18:35] <arnsa> guyz when I ./configure and "make" program, how do I run it?
[18:35] <malkauns> why does the compiz visual bell not work in 12.04?
[18:35] <L3tops> ok smcrossman in terminal: umount -f /dev/sda6             just to be safe... will probably tell you not mounted.
[18:35] <deebee396> fat-thing never used audition, but tried audacity?
[18:35] <arnsa> can you stop ignoring me and answer????
[18:35] <UnwinnableDonB> I'm running a dist-upgrade and it's stuck on linux-image-3.2.0-24-generic. It freezes at "run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postrm.d/zz-update-grub 3.2.0-24-generic /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-24-generic"
[18:35] <auronandace> HoNgOuRu: sudo apt-get install lua5.1
[18:35] <roscar> I have a weird problem that has been around for a while. When the update gui pops up with a list of upgrades, I install them it doesn't seem to finish? The gui will say "1 update has been selected. 2.7MB will be downloaded" but there is no update displayed and when I click "Install Upgrades" the gui refreshes and nothing changes. Any ideas on how I could investigate this issue?
[18:35] <L3tops> ok smcrossman in terminal: sudo umount -f /dev/sda6 just to be safe... will probably tell you not mounted.
[18:36] <beefman> is it possible to configure resolv.conf to use one server for only lookups on a certain domain, and another for all else?  will listing the specific one last handle that?
[18:36] <UnwinnableDonB> Stayed there for two hours, and is stuck there again. Thoughts?
[18:36] <HoNgOuRu> auronandace, I have it in apt-get sorry, not showing in lxde software center
[18:36] <L3tops> smcrossman: sudo fsck -f /dev/sda6
[18:36] <roscar> I should add that this has been happening for a couple months and has persisted since I've upgraded to 12.04
[18:36] <sleepycat> Fat-Thing: take a look at Ardour.
[18:37] <NotLarry> whats wrong with this picture? http://i.imgur.com/wf2fq.jpg
[18:37] <NotLarry> oh, wrong window, sorry
[18:37] <smcrossman> L3tops:  not mounted....still no luck on pastebinit  is there an alternative
[18:37] <gr33n7007h> What is the file you edit for grub splash screen in 10.04?
[18:37] <L3tops> that doesn't really compute... but it will probably not be needed at this point.
[18:38] <NotLarry> acer aspire one AO751h, 12.04 install, boots to a half screen
[18:38] <Fyodorovna> whoever, open the source.list and comment out any 3rd partities like ppa's opera etc run a update then try again. the command to the source list is sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list     You might also have 3rd parties in software sources.list.d as well the may show in the software sources gui and can be ticked off.
[18:38] <NotLarry> anyone know a fix?
[18:38] <malkauns> NotLarry, LOL @ http://i.imgur.com/wf2fq.jpg
[18:38] <toastedpenguin>  iceroot: that worked, thx
[18:39] <smcrossman> L3tops:  okay so what was the command you wanted run & the last bit of again?
[18:39] <toastedpenguin> guess I missed an update along the way
[18:39] <LinuxMint> Any one know a good windows(and osx) free laptop?
[18:39] <lousygarua> i put b43 on /etc/modules but it won't load on startup, i noticed there's some blacklist-something file under /etc/modules.d/ which disables the b43 module but it has a warning that it is auto generated and i'm not sure if it's smart to edit it
[18:39] <linuxR> Hi, I installed ubuntu 12.04 and ended up with a 1024x768 generic resolution. I have a "NVIDIA Corporation C73 [GeForce 7100 / nForce 620i]" card, Xorg.log says "(EE) [drm] failed to open device" .. help, anyone?
[18:39] <Fyodorovna> whoever, you want to be fully updated as well but you probably kn ow that and are
[18:39] <auronandace> LinuxMint: system76
[18:39] <L3tops> gr33n7007h: /lib/plymouth/themes/  but you should really do a google search on changing plymouth themes

[18:40] <cakenewbieee> hi there everybody
[18:40] <maheanuu> My CD/DVD burner quit working mid burn, and doesn't recognize any media,  how do I go about troubleshooting this in Ubuntu 10.04?
[18:40] <cakenewbieee> I'm stuck in a problem here
[18:40] <cakenewbieee> with ubuntu 11.10
[18:40] <LinuxMint> not available in india :(
[18:40] <L3tops> linuxR: lspci -nn | grep VGA
[18:41] <sleepycat> Can someone with some knowledge of live-build take a look at my question on askubuntu: http://askubuntu.com/questions/129081/why-is-live-build-failing-to-find-this-package
[18:41] <cakenewbieee> I'm trying to bake a model using cakephp using xampp but apparently i need to enable pdo_mysql extension
[18:41] <cakenewbieee> how can i do that?
[18:41] <cakenewbieee> im new to ubuntu...
[18:42] <ngomes> what's the name of the network manager package  ?
[18:42] <Escherial> cakenewbieee: well, the package manager is aptitutde; you can install most packages via sudo apt-get install packagename
[18:42] <Escherial> er, but wait, you're talking about php...first off, check if you have the pdo_mysql extension; it comes with a lot of php distros
[18:42] <L3tops> ngomes: apt-cache search network |grep manager   see if you can find it
[18:43] <K4k> I have some files showing up with permissions as ????????? owner ? group ? How can I correct this, chmod gets Input/output error.
[18:43] <cakenewbieee> the thing that is confusing me is that i have two php.ini one using xampp
[18:43] <Escherial> secondly, you'll have to find your php.ini file (or whatever they use for storing php settings these days) and uncomment the line that mentions it
[18:43] <ZenMaster> Ok, anyone here available?
[18:43] <cakenewbieee> php --ini gives me this:/etc/php5/cli/conf.d/pdo.ini
[18:43] <ZenMaster> I am aboslutely boggled.
[18:43] <Escherial> cakenewbieee: ah, hrm :|
[18:43] <efe> hello everybody, i am looking for a little bit help here about some graphic card issue
[18:43] <ZenMaster> I have firewalls rules off, I have the machine as a DMZ. I have tried two different ftp daemons.
[18:43] <ZenMaster> And still I am getting actively refused.
[18:43] <Escherial> cakenewbieee: heh, enable it in both? i don't know
[18:43] <efe> is there anyone who can help me?
[18:44] <L3tops> K4k: chown $USER:$USER /path/to/file
[18:44] <L3tops> K4k: sudo chown $USER:$USER /path/to/file
[18:44] <cakenewbieee> Escherial: You mean uncomment it?
[18:44] <ngomes> L3tops, found it , but it says it will leave dependencies unresolved: is this a problem ?
[18:44] <madsj> is there some kind soul who can send me a zip-file of /var/lib/dpkg/info/emacs* ?
[18:44] <L3tops> ummm... what did you find?
[18:44] <Escherial> cakenewbieee: right
[18:45] <efe> guys i dont wanna disturb anyone but i need help about my graphic card?
[18:45] <L3tops> what version are you on ngomes?
[18:45] <cakenewbieee> phpinfo() is telling me  that pdo_mysql is enabled however it is using xampp's php.ini
[18:45] <ngomes> L3tops, 12.04
[18:45] <madsj> I've tried "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a" and it just circles around with a2ps.el
[18:45] <Escherial> efe: just ask and if anyone knows they'll answer
[18:45] <smcrossman> L3tops:  /dev/sda6: 114727/3055616 files (0.4% non-contiguous), 3810568/12206848 blocks
[18:45] <L3tops> yes... and what did you find ngomes
[18:45] <ngomes> yes , its called network-manager
[18:45] <ngomes> aptitude remove network-manager says that
[18:45] <L3tops> smcrossman: did you fix it or did it say it was clean?
[18:45] <K4k> L3tops: chown: cannot access 'filename': Input/output error
[18:46] <L3tops> K4k: where filename is the name of the file
[18:46] <Escherial> cakenewbieee: you may be better off asking in a php channel about this, as it may be cakephp-speciifc
[18:46] <Escherial> *specific, even
[18:46] <K4k> L3tops: correct
[18:46] <K4k> L3tops: I should clarify, I've mounted a cifs share using mount.cifs. The files in this directory are the ones giving me trouble.
[18:47] <lost-m> hi
[18:47] <LukeNukem> oi
[18:47] <efe> ok then, i started using Ubuntu 12.04lts but i am so rookie about the whole system. but i liked it and trying my best to learn things about it. and i am doing pretty fine. the only problem is one game called Heroes of Newerth i like to play, but for some graphic card reason i can not run it. i am searching for an answer for about 48 hours but i could not make any good progress. so this is my problem
[18:47] <LukeNukem> everytime i open a particular folder
[18:47] <LukeNukem> it just closes auto
[18:47] <lost-m> I can't update the source.list properly: http://pastebin.com/RLuQCgL6
[18:47] <L3tops> Oh.... K4k were they created in windows or something?

[18:48] <cakenewbieee> Ok Escherial, thanks alot!
[18:48] <ngomes> and wants to remove 236 packages by removing network-manager ? oO
[18:48] <cariva> ciao
[18:48] <K4k> L3tops: yes, the files were originally created and saved to this location from a windows system
[18:48] <cariva> !list
[18:48] <L3tops> I dont think that is correct at all ngomes. One minute please
[18:48] <smcrossman> I didn't say anything and I didn't do anything just ran the fsck
[18:48] <stercor> Just upgraded to 12.04; launcher is gone and a right-click on the screen does not have a 'Launch application' option.
[18:48] <lost-m> can anyone help me please? http://pastebin.com/RLuQCgL6
[18:48] <ngomes> L3tops, just do aptitude remove network-manager and check , u can cancel
[18:48] <lousygarua> ok solved it, had to remove the "bcmwl-kernel-source" package

[18:49] <lousygarua> well i think it solved it
[18:49] <Escherial> cakenewbieee: no problem, good luck :) sorry that i wasn't more helpful, but it seems like you're well on your way anyhow
[18:49] <ngomes> L3tops, i did , i wont remove 200+ packages
[18:49] <ouser> hi all. i installed openbox but i'm not able to run it. if i start it with gdm it seems it has problems with the keyring not loaded, with startx it does not run at all! what do i have to do to run it? thanks.
[18:49] <L3tops> smcrossman: can you please pastebin the entire terminal session?
[18:49] <efe> ok then, i started using Ubuntu 12.04lts but i am so rookie about the whole system. but i liked it and trying my best to learn things about it. and i am doing pretty fine. the only problem is one game called Heroes of Newerth i like to play, but for some graphic card reason i can not run it. i am searching for an answer for about 48 hours but i could not make any good progress. so this is my problem
[18:49] <deebee396> stercor try alt?

[18:50] <samster34> iceroot: yoes, I tried to install freenx, I did what the page you linked escribed (replace precise with lucid in the repository links), but freenx still wont install because "esound-clients" is not installable
[18:50] <vexaxv> system settings > additional drivers
[18:50] <dotblank> It has been a long time sense I have needed to ask for help here, but multiarch has me holding a gun to my head. "but it is not going to be installed" Is the least helpful apt error messages of all time
[18:50] <dotblank> Can some one tell me what it means or why it says that
[18:51] <dotblank> It seems that multiarch has destroyed my dev box
[18:51] <dotblank> I can't dev in 32bit

[18:59] <HJE841> Hi. I've installed 11.10 on a seperate disk with 11.04 on my internal drive alongside Win7. Now I'm trying to boot from 11.10 disc using a hdd-dock, but all I got is 'Error: file not find' in the grup rescue
[18:59] <L3tops> smcrossman: pm I have to attend to kid
[18:59] <HJE841> what to do?
[18:59] <LinuxMint> how do i connect to another channel without leaving the current one?
[18:59] <deebee396> while im waiting for this to install, im currently using the windows bootl select screen, but windows 8 loads all the system files before giving you the choice of OS and then when i choose ubuntu it restarts and boots into my ubuntu partition, this takes quite along time, how do i set it to automatically boot into GRUB?
[18:59] <deebee396> *a long *boot

[19:00] <deebee396> *usually
[19:00] <maheanuu> No matter the disk I try to read or copy to,  Ubuntu is not recognising the media, whether it is a blank disk or a known good readable one commercial or burned and used, the computer will not open the disk or write to it
[19:00] <dotblank> can you pastebin "sudo ufw status"
[19:00] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, do you know which HD in which grub was put in the mbr
[19:01] <mado> howdy folks! ... some guy in #libreoffice told me to come here for my issue ... you see ... i was chatting somewhere else (http://the4gospels.net/) ... and i tried copy-pasting a line someone sent me to libreoffice ... in windows this worked fine but in ubuntu 12.04 it does not ... ... i got an error-message ... it says "Gewünschtes Zwischenablage-Format steht nicht zur Verfügung" ... "Zwischenablage = clipboard or something as far as i know"
[19:01] <ZenMaster> dotblank: Sure.

[19:02] <dotblank> ZenMaster, yea
[19:02] <coleix> anyone lnows what's the package name for 64bit flash and fglrx
[19:02] <ZenMaster> dotblank: UFW just management tool for all of that?
[19:02] <Fyodorovna> hareldvd, same thing just happened to me kinda weird.
[19:02] <ZenMaster> dotblank: I am wondering if I need to update iptables.
[19:02] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, I'm trying to boot from the external drive with only Ubuntu installed. ls in the Grub rescue shows me hd0 with msdos1 and hd1 with msdos7,msdos6,msdos5,msdos2 and msdos1
[19:02] <dotblank> ZenMaster, do you have custom iptables?
[19:02] <ZenMaster> dotblank: I think i have followed a tutorial that uses UFW and uptables.
[19:03] <dotblank> Might look into that
[19:03] <ZenMaster> I can't remember, I built this home server from scratch.
[19:03] <biggestMASTEReve> Hey
[19:03] <ZenMaster> So even if I have UFW off, that does not control iptables?
[19:03] <dotblank> Cause the socket is listening to all interfaces
[19:03] <biggestMASTEReve> Can you Give Me Help
[19:03] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, short answer: no
[19:03] <dotblank> yea, IPtables is its own thing
[19:03] <hareldvd> Can I remove lilo package?

[19:03] <biggestMASTEReve> Can you Help Me
[19:03] <dotblank> !ask
[19:03] <biggestMASTEReve> well i used Ubuntu 10.1ß0
[19:04] <aeon-ltd> biggestMASTEReve: just describe the problem, DON'T ask to ask
[19:04] <biggestMASTEReve> and i read support is off
[19:04] <escott> ZenMaster, off and on with ufw is not really the correct terminology. The rules are either loaded into the kernel or not.
[19:04] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, this script will save a lot of time to get to the answer.
[19:04] <biggestMASTEReve> So  i installed the latest and newest ubuntu 12.04
[19:04] <deebee396> can someone answer my question please
[19:04] <Joshun> hi
[19:04] <ZenMaster> escott: I am informed. Thank you.
[19:04] <L3tops> smcrossman: did you get the pm?
[19:04] <escott> trirnoth, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Convert_a_single_drive_system_to_RAID
[19:04] <pyboy> biggestMASTEReve: what problem are you having
[19:04] <Joshun> how do you get superscript ordinal numbers (i.e. dates) to work in libreoffice in 12.04?
[19:05] <belnac> eeks, this is one busy channel!
[19:05] <smcrossman> i haven'ts een it....uh....
[19:05] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, okay, I'll unplug the dock with the external drive and run the script
[19:05] <trirnoth> escott: cool. thanx. reading now.
[19:05] <biggestMASTEReve> my problem is
[19:05] <biggestMASTEReve> my ubuntu what i installed is not the real ubuntu
[19:05] <belnac> lol
[19:05] <Fyodorovna> deebee396, you installed ubuntu from windows right?
[19:06] <biggestMASTEReve> my problem is
[19:06] <biggestMASTEReve> my ubuntu what i installed is not the real ubuntu
[19:06] <gameid> !repeat
[19:06] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, no run it with everything,
[19:06] <biggestMASTEReve> GAMEID stop that
[19:06] <pyboy> biggestMASTEReve: what are you talking about only download it fron the ubuntu.com
[19:07] <aeon-ltd> biggestMASTEReve: explain how it isn't the real ubuntu
[19:07] <biggestMASTEReve> Yes i did
[19:07] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, but I need to unplug the dock in order to boot at all
[19:07] <deebee396> no Fyodorovna, i used usb installer then botted from a usb, but i didnt get any options to boot into ubuntu after so i used easyBCD to set up the boot selection thing
[19:07] <trirnoth> escott: wow. a lot to read. but directions are what I was looking for. thanks.
[19:07] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, a live cd?
[19:07] <deebee396> *booted
[19:07] <pyboy> biggestMASTEReve: how is it fake if you got it fron there
[19:07] <haus> lucid packaging question: why did activerecord and activesupport get removed from lucid universe repository? (or how could i find this information out?)
[19:07] <biggestMASTEReve> aeon-tls: because it looks totally different from what i know in ubuntu  10.10. it looks like a big monster, like a major pest
[19:07] <haus> libactiverecord-ruby and libactivesupport-ruby to be exact
[19:07] <dotblank> wow, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine1.4/+bug/944321
[19:07] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, the external drive has a stand alone Ubuntu installed
[19:08] <aeon-ltd> biggestMASTEReve: show the channel a screenshot
[19:08] <escott> trirnoth, thats arch specific so you'll have to adapt it for ubuntu. mostly when you get around to making the initrd image (which shouldn't be too hard -- update fstab, /etc/modules and rerun the update-initramfs script)
[19:08] <aeon-ltd> biggestMASTEReve: there were big changes from 10.xx to 12.xx
[19:08] <deebee396> yeh
[19:08] <Fyodorovna> deebee396, do you have multiple windows installs?
[19:08] <deebee396> no
[19:08] <Joshun> if anybody's tried typing 1st or 2nd into libreoffice
[19:09] <Joshun> they should notice it doesn't work properly
[19:09] <Joshun> is there a way around this?
[19:09] <pyboy> biggestMASTEReve:if you want to hate on ubuntu go somewhere else to do that
[19:09] <deebee396> joshun alt codes?
[19:09] <biggestMASTEReve> aeon-ltd: it looks like this http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-CBilxj4U23E/TsIMd88D_tI/AAAAAAAABSw/dpdZmZA2sXk/s1600/Ubuntu-12-04-and-Ubuntu-Server-12-04-LTS-Highlights.jpg
[19:09] <JonEdney> Anyone familiar with getting a PCI NIC working on Ubuntu without manufacurer-supported drivers?
[19:09] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, what I am trying to see is all the information regarding all your HD's.
[19:09] <escott> !nounity | biggestMASTEReve
[19:09] <opr_> hi guys whats that thing called for X where you can, for example press a button to get you into a state where typing a sequence of keys is converted to a special character. I might for example press AltGr, then enter `e which will be converted to é
[19:09] <aeon-ltd> Joshun: i remember openoffice was able to do this, since libreoffice is a spawn of open i believe it should. try searching the preferences for these kind of options
[19:09] <escott> opr_, compose key
[19:09] <biggestMASTEReve> is it normal that it looks this way?
[19:10] <Monotoko> hmm, I've found a tutorial for configuring routes, but it's for Windows... does anyone know how I can configure routes in Linux to kill my net connection if my VPN dies?
[19:10] <opr_> escott, thanks
[19:10] <biggestMASTEReve> is it normal t h a t it looks this way?
[19:10] <aeon-ltd> biggestMASTEReve: that's normal
[19:10] <Joshun> aeon-ltd: format ordinal numbers is checked in autocorrect.
[19:10] <biggestMASTEReve> OKay+
[19:10] <aeon-ltd> biggestMASTEReve: it's called unity
[19:10] <biggestMASTEReve> Oh
[19:10] <deebee396> i g2g for a bit :/ if anyone has an answer please /query it to me
[19:10] <biggestMASTEReve> the big monster has a name:D+

[19:10] <pndemc_> anybody ever installed the windows dll's into wine?

[19:11] <pndemc_> dotblank, did you find it was worth it?
[19:11] <dotblank> pndemc_, only back in the day, I would have a local install of windows and use its dll's
[19:11] <dotblank> but now it is no longer needed except for specific runtimes
[19:11] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, pm'ed the result
[19:11] <pndemc_> dotblank, think it would make games playable?
[19:12] <biggestMASTEReve> BlouBlou thats true :D But "unity" also

[19:13] <aeon-ltd> ouser: have done
[19:13] <biggestMASTEReve> !repeat | pyboy
[19:13] <hash> hello anyone here know much about remote desktop
[19:13] <gameid> kathy: you have to upgrade on step at a time. 10.4 -> 10.10 -> 11.04 -> 11.10 -> 12.04
[19:13] <aeon-ltd> ouser: but next time just jump to the question, you'll get more responses that way
[19:14] <pyboy> ubottu: ok
[19:14] <ouser> aeon-ltd: i installed openbox but i'm not able to run it. if i start it with gdm it seems it has problems with the keyring not loaded, with startx it does not run at all! what do i have to do to run it? thanks.
[19:14] <iceroot> kathy: gameid you can upgrade from 10.04 to 12.04 directly because both are lts
[19:14] <biggestMASTEReve> pyboy how old are you
[19:14] <gameid> ah, learned something new then
[19:14] <Pici> kathy, gameid, iceroot:10.04 will not offer to upgrade to 12.04 until 12.04.1 is released.
[19:14] <escott> kathy, given the substantial nature of the changes i would recommend trying a livecd first and then if you do decide to upgrade you might elect to reinstall
[19:14] <iceroot> kathy: you have to tell the update-manager "only look for lts" or something like that
[19:14] <biggestMASTEReve> pyboy it looks like you are under 18
[19:14] <iceroot> Pici: why?
[19:15] <Fat-Thing> mixmeister <---does anyone knows about mixmeister? i need an equivalent app for ubuntu anyone?
[19:15] <powersurge> anyone have any experience with vnc to macs from ubuntu?
[19:15] <Joshun> i'll file a bug
[19:15] <biggestMASTEReve> Pici is RIGHT
[19:15] <wolter> Can I install the kernel used in Oneiric in Precise?
[19:15] <iceroot> wolter: yes but why?
[19:15] <aeon-ltd> ouser: nothing, usually you can execute a session without anything else loading but X and openbox
[19:15] <biggestMASTEReve> Pici Ubuntu 10.04 update to 12.04 only works when 12.04.01 is out!!!
[19:15] <Pici> biggestMASTEReve: Yes, I just said that.
[19:15] <joentjuh> After upgrading to 12.04, aptitude started listing both the amd64 packages and the i386 packages (very annoying, apt-cache search lists are now twice as long)... Anyone know where I can disable this?
[19:15] <aeon-ltd> ouser: if you post the specific error message form keyring here, some others may be able to help
[19:16] <ouser> aeon-ltd: do you use gdm to start it?
[19:16] <phibxr> [12.04] Is there any way to browse the reviews you have written in the Ubuntu Software Center?
[19:16] <escott> wolter, mixing packages from different versions is not supported
[19:16] <wolter> iceroot, I am having problems with my wireless connection which I didn't have before the upgrade, I'm just trying to see how to fix it
[19:16] <Pici> iceroot: Becacuse we don't want for 10.04 users to break their installs, its still possible that there are lingering LTS to LTS upgrade bugs out there.
[19:16] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, I don't do PM the channel has a better chance of success, so the sdb1 is the new install and you want to heve it control grub is this correct?
[19:16] <mtracey> Got a question about sftp and umasks.  I'm using the new ubuntu 12.04 server, updated my /etc/ssh/sshd_config  sftp-server line to include -u 0002 at the end, no luck after restarting ssh.  Still get the same old umask.  Any ideas?
[19:16] <nsahoo> I am planning to move the /var/lib to a new file system. What all services I need to stop? or, is this best done from a install disk?
[19:16] <LjL> biggestMASTEReve: someone's age is irrelevant here, and pyboy was right, this channel is not really for opinions and you should also avoid foul language here
[19:16] <wolter> escott, so does that mean I cannot use the previous kernel? Are packages directly linked to the kernel?
[19:16] <ouser> aeon-ltd: i got no error, but noting works and i suspect is the keyring that disables some access...
[19:16] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, yes
[19:16] <wolter> See, since I asked the question, my connection had been lost and reestablished thrice already
[19:17] <pyboy> LjL: thank you
[19:17] <iceroot> Pici: so 10.04 - 12.04 was never tested? and now its tested and bugs are worked on which will result in 12.04.1?
[19:17] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, have you set that HD first to be read in the bios?
[19:17] <escott> wolter, it means its not supported. you can do it, but its not encouraged, and you void your warranty ;)
[19:17] <ouser> aeon-ltd: do you start openbox with startx or through gdm?
[19:17] <aeon-ltd> ouser: i didn't use gdm, only a .xinitrc with the line 'exec openbox-session'
[19:17] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, yes
[19:17] <biggestMASTEReve> pyboy i get your adresse and phone number and your age. i will contact your parents
[19:17] <ouser> aeon-ltd: i also did it, but then nothing appears...
[19:18] <Pici> iceroot: I didn't say that it wasn't tested. There are just so many permutations of installs that there might be some problems that the developers didn't forsee.
[19:18] <aeon-ltd> ouser: then do you have to go to a VT to kill X?
[19:18] <ouser> aeon-ltd: if i start it through gdm it appears but i don't have access to eth0 for example...
[19:18] <kathy> iceroot:  escott This small laptop has no CD.  I suppose I can download 12.04 alternative and create a USB install media, but .... *I should be able to just do it over the internet.  Right?
[19:19] <escott> kathy, with older hardware i would be worried that the graphics card may not be good enough for a decent 12.04 experience, especially if you have something more "netbook-esque"
[19:19] <kathy> iceroot: and, yes, update-manager is set for LTS only.
[19:19] <iceroot> Pici: hm, ok. bad quality testing in my opionion then but because we only have less then 6 months for a release, i think its ok
[19:19] <ouser> aeon-ltd: do i have to kill X with "sudo service gdm stop" or something else?
[19:19] <Pici> iceroot: Its not bad testing. Its being careful.
[19:19] <kathy> escott: I suppose that is possible.
[19:19] <escott> ouser, lightdm replaced gdm in 11.10
[19:19] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, cool the install probably put itself in sda so if the sda disc was first you would boot. So you need to reload grub from the live cd to the sdb mbr and have that HD still first and it should boot to that ubuntu.  here is the link for loading grub. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#ChRoot
[19:20] <ouser> aeon-ltd: i'm on 11.04
[19:20] <ouser> aeon-ltd: do i have to kill X with "sudo service gdm stop" or something else?
[19:20] <aeon-ltd> ouser: yeah, i'm not sure why you don't have access to eth0 though. If you have time log in as a admin and then launch openbox and see if you have access
[19:20] <Pici> kathy: you can still upgrade over the internet if you use "do-release-upgrade -d" or "update-manager -d" if you are running 10.04.
[19:20] <iceroot> Pici: why not be careful and use 12.04.2 for that instead of .1.
[19:20] <escott> ouser, that will kill x
[19:20] <ouser> aeon-ltd: if os i laready tried it
[19:20] <Pici> iceroot: Because thats what they decided.
[19:20] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, hope that makes sense.
[19:20] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, thanks. I'll try that and get back to you with the result :)
[19:20] <iceroot> Pici: and we have to respect that..
[19:21] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, cool
[19:21] <iceroot> Pici: thank you for the usefull info about 12.04.1
[19:21] <Pici> iceroot: no problem.
[19:21] <kathy> Here is my hardware: http://pastebin.com/VGQJGrTj
[19:21] <joentjuh> After upgrading to 12.04, aptitude started listing both the amd64 packages and the i386 packages (very annoying, apt-cache search lists are now twice as long)... Anyone know where I can disable this?
[19:21] <ouser> aeon-ltd: it seems like gdm and gnome are "dominating" and openbox id blocked by the gnome-keyring not called... it seems :)
[19:21] <maheanuu> Could someone tell me what I need to do to get Ubuntu to recognise my cd/dvd drive, manager is showing the drive but I cannot mount it or read anything with it, or burn using it???
[19:22] <kathy> Pici: Do you think my hardware will support 12.04?
[19:22] <deebee396> =( noone answered my question, surely it cant be that hard to change the default bootloader?
[19:22] <Pici> joentjuh: Don't use aptitude. Its a known problem and part of the reason why we don't ship aptitude by default.
[19:22] <kathy> Pici:  http://pastebin.com/VGQJGrTj
[19:22] <escott> joentjuh, its called multiarch aptitude isn't getting much love from ubuntu (as they favor software center) and multiarch hasn't been released to debian proper yet so you probably have to live with it
[19:22] <Asido>
[19:22] <aeon-ltd> ouser: if you really want to be sure, go to a VT then open up top or htop and kill all gdm and X related processes
[19:23] <Pici> kathy:You *shouldn't* have any problems.
[19:23] <escott> deebee396, what was your question
[19:23] <deebee396> how to change from windows bootloader to grub
[19:23] <trirnoth> escott or anyone familiar with setting up raid on an existing ubuntu install .... When creating the array, I am getting: "mdadm: Defaulting to version 1.2 metadata Segmentation fault (core dumped)" .... I there are issues under redhat, but nothing stated for ubuntu ....
[19:23] <deebee396> *default
[19:23] <ouser> then, with "exec openbox-session" in my ./xinitrc i'll do a "startx"?
[19:23] <escott> !grub | deebee396
[19:23] <iksik_> hmm, any ideas why my skype window, and skype chat windows are all black? black background instead of white o.O
[19:23] <joentjuh> escott: so no simple option somewhere? (I don't use software-center or any other similar gui managers)
[19:23] <deebee396> thank you
[19:23] <mtracey> Added the -u for umask in my /etc/ssh/sshd_conf file (looks like this now: Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server -u 0002 ) but still getting no group write perms when sftp'ing (via gui client or command line sftp from another server).  Any ideas?  12.04 ubuntu server.
[19:24] <escott> trirnoth, what was your exact command
[19:24] <escott> joentjuh, you might be able to specify some kind of wildcard to say package*amd64
[19:24] <deebee396> well ima go re-install ubuntu now thx for the help
[19:24] <aeon-ltd> ouser: yeah, or if you want to emulate an absolutely blank install, hunt down the openbox configs and delete them and let them generate themselves again
[19:25] <escott> deebee396, shouldn't need a reinstall. just follow the "lost grub" instructions
[19:25] <trirnoth>  mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 missing /dev/sdb2 .... I see one can specify a metadata, but if I understand this correctly this is to point to a grub 1 version.
[19:25] <deebee396> oh no its not for that, my power cut out when updgrading to ubuntu 12
[19:25] <kathy> Pici: Thanks for the advice
[19:25] <deebee396> *upgrading
[19:25] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, in step 5. my 'normal'
[19:25] <Fyodorovna> deebee396, this is 3 methods to load grub to the mbr the chroot the 3rd is probably your best bet.  Make sure you have a windows recovery or install disc to reload the windows bootloader if needed.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling_GRUB2
[19:25] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, system is that sdb?
[19:25] <HJE841> partition
[19:26] <joentjuh> escott: Well, ignoring is always an option, but I'm mostly wondering why the sudden change in behaviour, and why apt starting updating for multiple arches
[19:26] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, sdb1
[19:26] <escott> trirnoth, huh? what does this have to do with grub? the command looks ok, but its seg faulting on you?
[19:26] <trirnoth> Crap. Sorry. I shoudln't have started this late in the day. I need to read better.
[19:26] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, thanks
[19:26] <trirnoth> It was, because I was pointing to the wrong partition (right disk though)
[19:27] <escott> joentjuh, the project is called multiarch it was released to ubuntu in 11.10. i think its still waiting in debian testing
[19:27] <trirnoth> sorry. I'll do better.
[19:27] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, if you see sdXX the firs X is the HD the second the partition if you just see sdX it is just the HD. :)
[19:27] <ouser> aeon-ltd: i've just run sysv-rc-conf and, with my surprise, gdm is not set in rc2. is it normal?
[19:27] <wolter> escott, in any case, how can I install a previous kernel? In case I do it, I wouldn't be replacing my current kernel, just installing another one so that doesn't worry me
[19:27] <acca> Hi
[19:27] <HJE841> Fyodorovna,  okay :) but just to be sure: if I unplug the dock with my sdb I will still boot into sda as if nothing happened?
[19:27] <ouser> surprise (i tried not to make gdm and all gnome-related stuff to start at boot)
[19:27] <wolter> iceroot, ^
[19:27] <klync> is there any way for me to discover what URLs firefox has open from a terminal?
[19:28] <aeon-ltd> ouser: no idea, you'll need to talk to someone else with more gdm experience.
[19:28] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, you may have to reload grub in the sda as well the sdb ubuntu and the sda will both show all OS at the grub.
[19:28] <ouser> aeon-ltd: ok i'll try. thanks
[19:28] <samster34> hmm teamviewer performance is quite poor despite gigabit ethernet
[19:28] <escott> wolter, i would think the best way would be to grab the individual debs you want and install them directly
[19:29] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, basically you will have grub from the ubuntu in that HD controlling the boot from that HD.
[19:29] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, okay. I'll give it a go
[19:30] <HJE841> just need the live Cd load the right keyboard layout :S
[19:30] <smax> hi
[19:30] <acca> I have a question: I use pcmanfm, and I mount ntfs partition by clicking on the partition I want to mount. In my fstab I have only the os filesystem and a swap partition. Is possible mount the ntfs partition Read Only (only when I click on the related partition, non in fstab) ?
[19:31] <diakite> hi
[19:31] <smax> I'm using the cinnamon desktop environment.  When I scroll throught the virtual desktops, ctrl-alt-arrow, Only one of the dual monitors is scrolls.
[19:31] <LukeNukem> how can i go into a mounted partition via terminal
[19:31] <acca> dir media
[19:31] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, cool.
[19:31] <skkeeper> for some reason i can't apply a gtk theme to nautilus in 12.04 : \
[19:31] <skkeeper> it applies to everything else, but nautilus and the unity itself
[19:31] <HJE841> LukeNukem, type 'mount' without quotes to see where it's mounted
[19:31] <LukeNukem> acca, i tried cd media/Radioactive Zone
[19:31] <escott> LukeNukem, cd /media/MOUNTPOINTHERE
[19:31] <acca> LukeNukem,  /media/partition
[19:31] <LukeNukem> but it keeps saying no directory
[19:31] <wolter> escott, I am looking for a linux-image-...-generic package right?
[19:32] <escott> wolter, yes, and if you use proprietary drivers you might need to update those as well. and the initrd
[19:32] <samster34_> is there anything that works like teamviewer, i.e. will let me see the unity3d desktop, and control it from windows 7, over ethernet, with better performance than teamviewer?
[19:32] <Dr_willis> LukeNukem,  spell the name right. ;)   use tab key for completion.
[19:32] <LukeNukem> ok
[19:32] <Dr_willis> LukeNukem,  and Case Is Imporntant...
[19:32] <Dr_willis> !bash | LukeNukem
[19:33] <escott> LukeNukem, Radioactive\ Zone or "Radioactive Zone"
[19:33] <LukeNukem> escott, the latter
[19:33] <escott> LukeNukem, I'm telling you what to type. you must either escape the space or quote it
[19:33] <LukeNukem> oh ok
[19:34] <escott> LukeNukem, tab completion will automagically escape spaces and special characters
[19:34] <LukeNukem> ok
[19:35] <acca> escott can i mount my ntfs partition Read Only from pcmanfm ..do you know ?
[19:35] <Fyodorovna> smax, just a guess but do you have the desktop showing on both?
[19:35] <escott> acca, i would just say "use nautilus"
[19:36] <acca> eheh I am on bodhi linux
[19:36] <DRayX> Quick question, is there any documentation about the addition of Hyper-V in 12.04 anywhere?
[19:36] <LukeNukem> im trying to delete a directory but it keeps saying directory not empty
[19:36] <acca> option -r
[19:36] <escott> DRayX, /boot/config*
[19:37] <LukeNukem> acca, i did
[19:37] <LukeNukem> but stil
[19:37] <acca> mmm
[19:37] <escott> LukeNukem, ls -a path (in case something is hidden)
[19:37] <JohnnyonFlame> Anyone here knows how to deal with libconfuse?
[19:37] <RyoRonin> LukeNukem: rm -R folder
[19:37] <smax> Fyodorona yes
[19:37] <smax> Fyodorovna:
[19:38] <skkeeper> for some reason i can't apply a gtk theme to nautilus in 12.04 : \
[19:38] <acca> attention it is a dangerous command :)
[19:38] <skkeeper> it applies to everything else, but nautilus and the unity itself
[19:38] <LukeNukem> RyoRonin, i tried that, same error
[19:38] <DRayX> My IT guy is looking for something online that says that Hyper-V support has been added before we deploy it onto our host.
[19:38] <smax> but the windows on one desktop stay on the left monitor when I scroll through the list of desktops
[19:38] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, here goes 'sudo reboot'
[19:38] <mtracey> I went ahead and put my sftp-server question on the forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11895827  Thanks all here..  bye.
[19:38] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, :)
[19:38] <RyoRonin> LukeNukem:did you try via Nautilus?
[19:39] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, bummer.. no change
[19:39] <Fyodorovna> smax, thanks, I wish I knew. :)
[19:39] <escott> DRayX, so check the config file in /boot and see if they enabled the hyperV extensions. My guess is that they didn't
[19:39] <alper> hey, is there anybody to confirm that for Media Player (Totem)? Scrolling down (or up) mouse wheel on playlist is affecting also time line of the playing media
[19:39] <LukeNukem> RyoRonin, idk what that is
[19:39] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, what happens if you try booting the sda HD?
[19:39] <escott> DRayX, but maybe the modularized it, and you can just load the appropriate module
[19:39] <maheanuu> I just tried to do a "mount" from the terminal and here is what it is telling me, I could use a bit of advise if possible http://paste.ubuntu.com/960829/
[19:40] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, it starts up as if nothing ever happened
[19:40] <escott> maheanuu, (a) only root can mount things that are not in /etc/fstab and (b) when doing so you must specify device and mountpoint mount /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom
[19:40] <RyoRonin> LukeNukem: Your file manager? Or no gui?
[19:40] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, shows both ubuntu and the windows?
[19:40] <LukeNukem> RyoRonin, terminal keeps saying its sub directories are not empty and GUI also says the same thing
[19:40] <LukeNukem> but it is empty RyoRonin
[19:40] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, yes. with no trace of the sdb
[19:40] <RyoRonin> LukeNukem: let me try something out, what is the name of the folder?
[19:41] <smax> cinnamon sucks.
[19:41] <DRayX> I am fairly certain they are, but my IT guy won't let me install ubuntu on our host without something online that syas there is support.  I found an article from The Register and the bug report on launchpad that says it was added, but he is looking for something more (I'm not entirely sure why).
[19:41] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, from the update-grub step I saw it recognizing both the sdb kernel images and sdas
[19:41] <LukeNukem> RyoRonin, www
[19:41] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, as for the 11.04 have you run sudo update-grub there to see if it picks up the 12.04
[19:41] <RyoRonin> LukeNukem: your apache folder? www, have you tried with sudo rm -R www
[19:42] <aeon-ltd> DRayX: the LTS pages
[19:42] <LukeNukem> RyoRonin, its a backup of the www folder
[19:42] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, no?
[19:42] <LukeNukem> k i renamed it to "fag"
[19:42] <LukeNukem> to avoid confusion and because its being so stubborn :|
[19:42] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, do that so that you can get the sdb to show if you get in we can reload grub to the mbr from it, rather then the cd.
[19:43] <maheanuu> escott, I was in the middle of a burn when this failed, I was burning 2 copies of a file and after the first copy it failed to recognise the media.   The drive is showing in computer  but when I go to disk manager I cannot mount it
[19:43] <maheanuu> escott,  did you read the paste?
[19:43] <v0lksman_> did something major change to cron in 12.04?  I can't seem to run two jobs from crontab.  It only seems to run the last one:  http://dpaste.com/741004/
[19:44] <DRayX> aeon-ltd: Have a link by any change? :)
[19:44] <DrPOo_44> is there a way of getting how many RAM sticks I  am using on my mobo through the commandline?
[19:44] <DRayX> *chance
[19:44] <RyoRonin> LukeNukem: did it work? changing the name?
[19:44] <escott> maheanuu, its called a coaster for a reason. open up a beer and put it down on top of the CD.
[19:44] <aeon-ltd> DRayX: here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS it shows details about support for the LTS versions of ubuntu]
[19:44] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, the output from terminal did pick up the sdb (11.10) but rebooting still says: 'Error: file not found'
[19:44] <samster34_> what is ubuntu 12.04's default desktop sharing port?
[19:45] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, is the ubuntu in the sdb a new install?
[19:45] <LukeNukem> RyoRonin, changing the name worked, but it still wont get removed
[19:45] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, I installed it a couple of weeks ago
[19:45] <RyoRonin> LukeNukem: you said before that there is nothing in the folder? any hidden?
[19:46] <LukeNukem> RyoRonin, checking
[19:46] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, and it was booting from which HD up to now? I wonder if it is broken in some manner.
[19:46] <DrPOo_44> is there a way of getting how many RAM sticks are installed on a system?
[19:46] <delac> DrPOo_44: decode-dimms might provide the information
[19:47] <escott> DrPOo_44, probably visible in /sys somewhere
[19:47] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, I assume the dock is not the problem as well, can not be sure though.
[19:47] <LukeNukem> stupid stubborn folder
[19:47] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, I'm using sdb as a work hd and switch hd twice a day to keep work and private seperate. So I've been using both internally
[19:47] <DrPOo_44> delac, decode-dimms is that the name of the program?
[19:47] <maheanuu> escott, I have been trying with at least 10 commercial new disks that are good everywhere else,  and my virgin disks are memorex ones that I have been using for months and this cylinder was just opened for this project
[19:47] <modernbob> I have twinview running in nvidia driver on ubuntu 12.04.. I now have a second panel on the second screen.. I only need one panel.. how do I get rid of the copy
[19:48] <chronos> I really can't upgrade from LTS to LTS?
[19:48] <chronos> from 11.04 to 12.04?
[19:48] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, using the dock I've been able to boot up from sda from my desktop pc
[19:48] <escott> maheanuu, what are you using to burn? at what speed? are you seeing underflows? any error messages?
[19:48] <delac> DrPOo_44: yes, although it is in package i2c-tools
[19:48] <JessicaW> is there a way to use history -d to clear several lines from bash history at once?
[19:48] <kathy> upgrade in progress.  Thanks all.
[19:48] <delac> DrPOo_44: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Lm_sensors
[19:48] <Fyodorovna> HJE841, so it booted from have sdb itself up to the dock was tried when booting the sdb?
[19:48] <kathy> (CLI method)
[19:49] <HJE841> Fyodorovna, yes
[19:49] <normatif> DrPOo_44: sudo dmidecode -t memory
