[00:00] <student_421> how to add repository backtrack to ubuntu?
[00:00] <silvertop> nice
[00:00] <bastidrazor> student_421: ask #backtrack-linux
[00:00] <PetePorty> Anyone?
[00:00] <Jeruvy> student_421: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[00:00] <silvertop> mmmmm bt4
[00:01] <student_421> jevury:thak you..
[00:01] <qikky> ActionParsnip, I did what you said about installing ubuntu with windows 7 but now I cannot boot up windows 7. It won't show the OS in the grub menu but it shows windows and it would go into recovery mode.
[00:02] <PetePorty> qikky: You need to fix your master grub boot loader
[00:02] <qikky> Could you please tell me how to do so?
[00:02] <PetePorty> qikky: I used https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows , but it seems your problem is the other way around?
[00:03] <swart> ggg3: I use sshfs
[00:03]  * hylian is having fun with sugar (sucrose)
[00:03] <ggg3> thanks swart will check that out
[00:03] <metallico> i have two network cards. do i need to separate them somehow in the interfaces file?
[00:04] <meganerd> jstoone: sleuthkit/autopsy might be able to help, but if the file system was ext3/4, you are probably SOL.  Formost on the entire drive might work, PITA though.
[00:04] <metallico> that article only shows how to do one
[00:04] <PetePorty> qikky: http://www.webupd8.org/2009/05/fix-restore-grub-boot-loader.html That seems easier, though.
[00:04] <PetePorty> Anyone thinks they can help me with my problem?
[00:05] <ggg3> swart, thanks but I need to mount the physical hard drive. There is no running machine for me to do that with. That leads to my only option now: build a FreeBSD box to read the disks.
[00:05] <swart> ah sorry I misunderstood
[00:05] <PetePorty> :( ok, I'll try later.
[00:05] <metallico> ok, restarting networking now.. lets hope i will come back online :)
[00:06] <jessicaBR> hello, any idea of how I can add the repository of this package (http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/packages/show/218653) so that I could install it?
[00:06] <Camer0n> how do you unmount cds?
[00:06] <ggg3> swart: I know there's a package of tools for diddling for such partitions w/ Ubuntu, but they don't let you actually access the files.
[00:07] <jstoone> Hi guys, I've never been that good at compileing I checked and gcc and the two lib's are installed but when i ./configure it says my c++ compiler cannot create executeables
[00:07] <metallico> when i restarted networking i got a SIOCDELRT: No such process
[00:07] <ggg3> I didn't specify: the "ufs" type filesystem
[00:07] <Jeruvy> Camer0n ;just right click and eject
[00:07] <Camer0n> no, ubuntu server
[00:07] <qikky> PetePorty, thanks
[00:07] <Camer0n> terminal
[00:08] <Jeruvy> unmount sr0 :?
[00:08] <Camer0n> command unmount not found
[00:08] <jessicaBR> someone help. plzzzz :)
[00:08] <silvertop> umount not unmount
[00:09] <Camer0n> oh okay, I've rebooted now anyway :/
[00:09] <Jeruvy> hehe ya I should have been clear, but I was just thinking.
[00:10] <metallico> ok, changed the file and still have internet.. rebooting now
[00:10] <jessicaBR> don't make me beg :-(
[00:10] <silvertop> jessicaBR, did you ask a question
[00:11] <Jeruvy> jessicaBR: just tell us your problem as complete as you can in one line.
[00:11] <Superstar> Can someone help me recover my NTFS partition please? I can't remember what I did but my data is intact, I don't need to do a sector by sector recovery, I just need to undelete a partition. I'm fairly new to Ubuntu as a desktop, can someone point me in the right direction please?
[00:12] <Jeruvy> Superstar to recover ntfs you should be using data recovery tools,  try ##windows
[00:13] <jessicaBR> silvertop, Jeruvy,  er..., I'm interested in installing glade-3 package on my ubuntu, but that package does not exists in my synaptic... So I thought I could add a repository (PPA). I found this (http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/packages/show/218653) but I have no idea where to get the repository...
[00:13] <high-rez> So anyone here have experience with KVM?  I'd really like to be able to install guests directly to LVM volumes, and not have to convert from qcow2.  Any ideas ?
[00:13] <MeanEYE> jessicaBR: Easiest way to find it is to go to launchpad.net and search there.
[00:13] <CarlFK> jessicaBR: "Repository:     main"   is a default (not sure you could live without it
[00:13] <Jeruvy> jessicaBR https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[00:14] <codex84> do you guys
[00:14] <codex84> use the gnome ubtuntu dekstop
[00:14] <redDEADresolve> I want to see what loading when I boot up my system, how can i get the old text version back
[00:14] <bastidrazor> !enter | codex84
[00:14] <codex84> or kde
[00:14] <codex84> ?
[00:14] <Superstar> Jeruvy Do you know of any applications for Ubuntu? Other data recovery tools in windows get the MBR, BootSector and MFT but will only display the files and only allows you to create an image of it. I have Hirens Boot CD but it crashes upon startup because the drive is missing its bootsector
[00:15] <cybrhuman> Camer0n: unmount isn't a command, umount is probably what you want
[00:15] <jessicaBR> thanks guys
[00:15] <Jeruvy> Superstar: seriously I wouldn't consider doing recovery in Ubuntu.
[00:15] <Superstar> Jeruvy why not? there's no chance of data loss
[00:16] <CarlFK> Superstar: apt-get install testdisk; man testdisk
[00:16] <Superstar> CarlFK thanks I just finished installing it as well
[00:16] <meganerd> Superstar: sleuthkit/autopsy can do some file recovery, there has been some work parsing the MFT recently by some security researchers.  Nothing really easy that I know of.
[00:16] <Jeruvy> Superstar, I have tools that work perfectly for ntfs.  Why would I use something that isn't native to the fs?
[00:17] <Axlin> redDEADresolve: you can hit escape to bring up the text, or, i found this on a forum: "You just need to edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file, find the line that is used to boot your kernel, and remove the 'splash' option from it. If you want even more text, remove the 'quiet' option as well."
[00:17] <meganerd> Superstar: fixntfs is like a lite version of chkdsk, but you usually want chkdsk
[00:17] <redDEADresolve> Axlin, thanks
[00:17] <Superstar> meganerd no chkdsk won't recover mft or bootsector
[00:18] <Jeruvy> Superstar correct.
[00:18] <metallico> still no joy
[00:18] <KINGOFSWORDS> anyone recommend good program to keep track of internet traffic/usage?
[00:18] <meganerd> Superstar: but windows install cd has fixboot and fixmbr
[00:19] <meganerd> Superstar: either way this sounds OT to me
[00:19] <Jeruvy> meganerd: this really should be in ##windows.
[00:19] <aeon-ltd> KINGOFSWORDS: tomato and ddwrt but they're router based and limited to some routers only
[00:19] <Superstar> meganerd I appreciate your help but those won't recover a deleted partition
[00:19] <__yhvh__> I've got my dual monitors set up, in windows now flash can stay fullscreen on one even if you shift focus to another window, is this possible on ubuntu?
[00:19] <PetePorty> Hey guys, I have a problem... I don't know what caused it, since I wasn't home at the time (my mom said the computer just "turned off"...), but when booting into Linux (after the OS selection screen), the output is the following: http://pastebin.com/dCA8K5aE Then it just becomes a black screen.
[00:19] <KINGOFSWORDS> oh...i use 3g fone and have 80gb cap so wanted to keep track
[00:20] <JAQK-Joker> Do you think AT&T is a good internet provider?
[00:20] <meganerd> Superstar: foremost can sometimes carve files out of a disk image (or raw disk device), autopsy and sleuthkit are probably your next best bets
[00:20] <LjL> !recovery | Superstar, i wasn't following, but some of these can find lost partitions
[00:20] <LjL> !recover | Superstar - sorry not that, this
[00:20] <metallico> i need to sleep now guys. thank you very much for all your help. will figure this out 2moro. good night
[00:21] <Jeruvy> LjL: lost partition ntfs
[00:21] <salmiak> hello, wat is the irc channel for linux mint?
[00:21] <jessicaBR> sorry for bothering again, but still can't find out a binary to install glade-3 :( I would like to find the repository URL and add it to synaptic sources. And then just intsall the package with synaptic. How can i do this? Couldn't find the repository in launchpad...
[00:21] <LjL> Jeruvy: likely doesn't matter to tools like testdisk and gpart
[00:22] <Superstar> Is it me or does Ubuntus desktop look sexier than Windows 7 and Macs O/S?
[00:22] <meganerd> Superstar: fixmbr might be what you want, best to ask about that in a Windows channel
[00:22] <salmiak> There must be one, for more mint-specific questions, right?
[00:22] <jstoone> Hi again guys, i just found out that the filesystem that the backup.tar file is, is a NTFS filesystem
[00:22] <codex84> google it
[00:22] <rww> !mintsupport | salmiak
[00:22] <salmiak> ok thanks
[00:24] <jstoone> Refrace: Hi I wrote some time ago and told that I overwrote my backup.tar file with an empty folder, and now i found out that it's a NTFS filesystem instead of ex2-4. Any good ideas on how i could have a chance restoreing the file?

[00:26] <chotaz> can anyone here help me out with jdownloader? since their channels seems pertty dead
[00:26] <MaRk-I> PetePorty: just make sure you use the actual partition of your system
[00:26] <Jeruvy> jessicaBR: the only packages I can find for glade-3 are from hardy, which is pretty much end of life.
[00:27] <JAQK-Joker> rww: Where have you been?
[00:27] <PetePorty> MaRk-I: Of course. ;)
[00:30] <KINGOFSWORDS> stupid question? how do i find a files name when i dont know where its isntalled?

[00:36] <tony__> i need help
[00:36] <JAQK-Joker> How do I install Mozilla Firefox on Ubuntu?
[00:36] <qikky> Do I need to create a separate partition for grub settings?
[00:36] <rww> JAQK-Joker: install the 'firefox' package from your package manager.
[00:36] <tony__> how do i install google chrome on unbuntu
[00:37] <JAQK-Joker> rww: Thank You
[00:37] <airtonix> any idea why there is a significant pause between user input of sudo password and the expected terminal response when using sudo after the cache timeout ?
[00:37] <rww> tony__: install 'chromium-browser' for chromium, or see http://chrome.google.com/ for Chrome (which is supported by Google, not us)
[00:37] <rww> or maybe they don't support it either. who knows.
[00:39] <edbian> qikky: no
[00:39] <JAQK-Joker> Is there a irc channel for talking about anyting?
[00:39] <crapos> hola?
[00:39] <qikky> edbain: so I should install grub on /dev/sda?
[00:39] <jrib> JAQK-Joker: maybe #defocus
[00:40] <JAQK-Joker> jrib: Thank You
[00:40] <edbian> qikky: grub resides in two places.  The first is in the MBR (master boot record).  That's on the harddrive (not a partition).  The other place is in a folder called /boot.  You can put /boot on another partition. You do not have to.
[00:41] <tony__> when i install google chrome it says error amd 64
[00:41] <qikky> Ok, thanks.
[00:41] <edbian> qikky: Hope that helps :)
[00:43] <KINGOFSWORDS> tony_ do u have a 64 bit computer with ubuntu
[00:44] <Juv1228> tony__: i wouldnt use google chrome, opt for chromium
[00:44] <KINGOFSWORDS> whats the difference between chrome and chromium?
[00:45] <JAQK-Joker> How can I watch 1080p videos on ubuntu?
[00:45] <edbian> JAQK-Joker: play them?
[00:45] <Juv1228> lol
[00:45] <Juv1228> KindOne,
[00:46] <Juv1228> KINGOFSWORDS, chrome is from google, and they have all sorts of 'extras' that track you
[00:46] <JAQK-Joker> I mean which video player has 1080p support?
[00:46] <Juv1228> chromium is the open source version
[00:46] <Juv1228> JAQK-Joker,  any of them?
[00:46] <edbian> JAQK-Joker: Any video player will play video of any quality
[00:46] <aeon-ltd> JAQK-Joker: i think you mean blu-ray support
[00:46] <Juv1228> its not the player, its the file
[00:46] <JAQK-Joker> Yes.
[00:46] <KINGOFSWORDS> but is chromium the same then but just a modified version
[00:46] <edbian> JAQK-Joker: It's not like a TV :)
[00:47] <Juv1228> KINGOFSWORDS, incorrect, chrome is the modified version of chromium
[00:47] <itaylor57> edbian: and I thought this was apple tv support room
[00:47] <Juv1228> chrome stemmed off chromium
[00:47] <KINGOFSWORDS> did google copy it then?
[00:47] <edbian> itaylor57: :)  This is Ubuntu support!
[00:47] <Juv1228> i wouldnt say they coppied it, because they are the maintainers of it i believe
[00:47] <KINGOFSWORDS> i got chromium..didnt realise it was any differnt
[00:48] <JAQK-Joker> On another note which is more prone to viruses ubuntu or windows?
[00:48] <Juv1228> its really not
[00:48] <Juv1228> JAQK-Joker, neither
[00:48] <KINGOFSWORDS> ubuntu cant get virus
[00:48] <airtonix> !troll
[00:48] <Juv1228> computers dont get viruses, the people that run them do :)
[00:48] <edbian> JAQK-Joker: Viruses are not a concern on linux
[00:48] <Kindari> Just curious here, /md0 is composed of sdb and sdc. Configured in raid 1. sdb has partitions 1,2 and 5, while sdc has partitions 1. wut?
[00:48] <JAQK-Joker> Why?
[00:48] <edbian> JAQK-Joker: windows 7 is much better security than windows xp was.  windows xp was relatively insecure
[00:48]  * Juv1228 facepalms
[00:49] <KINGOFSWORDS> i got bit of a sniftal...thought that would stop when i switched 2 linux=(
[00:49] <airtonix> JAQK-Joker: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=510812
[00:49] <JAQK-Joker> edbian: Thank You
[00:49] <edbian> JAQK-Joker: Mostly because of file permissions.  Files cannot be harmed by programs that don't run as root.    Every program was effectively 'root'
[00:49] <sndngnr> sdb and sdb should match
[00:50] <sndngnr> *sdc
[00:50] <airtonix> JAQK-Joker: you should _really_ read that page i just linked for you.
[00:50] <Juv1228> that too
[00:50] <KINGOFSWORDS> i want 2 create a shortcut to compizconfig settings manager but cant find the correct file name?
[00:50] <Kindari> sndngnr: Thats what I thought. This is a brand new install. sda should always be / right?
[00:50] <Juv1228> KINGOFSWORDS,  cssm
[00:50] <edbian> KINGOFSWORDS: ccsm
[00:50] <Juv1228> ccsm i mean
[00:50] <UbuntuNoob> i dont know why, but my laptop decided to open about 1000 terminal windows by itself for no reason other than maybe my enter button was stuck while the terminal icon was highlighted. is there some terminal command line i could use to kill either all open terminals or all open windows instead of clicking "x"s for the next 5 minutes?
[00:50] <edbian> Juv1228: typo :)
[00:51] <sndngnr> Kindari, appears that you have the sdb/sdc rw devices defined as /md0 so raid is overlooking the partition table... but it could still cause problems
[00:51] <KINGOFSWORDS> ahhh brilliant thx guys
[00:51] <Juv1228> lol
[00:51] <KINGOFSWORDS> how would i find that out in the future for other apps thou
[00:51] <edbian> UbuntuNoob: pick one terminal and run this: killall gnome-terminal
[00:51] <airtonix> KINGOFSWORDS: you could also try out the helper program : fusion-icon
[00:51] <sndngnr> depends on where you wanted /
[00:51] <UbuntuNoob> thanks edbiam
[00:51] <Juv1228> ubuntunoob: that big button on the front works good too

[00:51] <itaylor57> airtonix: good link thanks
[00:52] <UbuntuNoob> juv1228: yeah,but i was going for something that didnt involve shutting down the computer
[00:52] <lder> what is /dev/vg0?  i am running something that is looking for that path?
[00:52] <Juv1228> then killall is your best bet
[00:52] <UbuntuNoob> thanks for the help guys
[00:52] <sndngnr> Kindari: depends, where is / supposed to be mounted?
[00:53] <KINGOFSWORDS>  * NVIDIA on Xorg detected, exporting: __GL_YIELD=NOTHING
[00:53] <KINGOFSWORDS> does this mean open gl is disbaled?
[00:53] <Kindari> sndngnr: Not quite sure now :) heres my setup and what I want. I have a 500gb that I installed to, then I have 2x 2TB drives I configured to be raid1 during install, mounted on /data.
[00:53] <KINGOFSWORDS> cssm doesnt work
[00:54] <jstoone> ls
[00:54] <edbian> KINGOFSWORDS: ccsm  not cssm
[00:54] <Kindari> Now /data doesnt even exist
[00:54] <jstoone> quit
[00:54] <sndngnr> hmmm...
[00:54] <JAQK-Joker> Which MP3 player is good to run on Ubuntu?
[00:54] <KINGOFSWORDS> sorry i mean cssm doesnt work
[00:54] <sndngnr> is there an entry in /etc/fstab ?
[00:54] <edbian> KINGOFSWORDS: ?
[00:54] <Juv1228> KINGOFSWORDS, ccsm
[00:54] <sndngnr> for /data
[00:55] <edbian> KINGOFSWORDS: ccsm  not cssm
[00:55] <Kindari> no entry
[00:55] <Juv1228> two c's one s one m
[00:55] <KINGOFSWORDS> lol that make perfect sense now..sorry little dsylexic
[00:55] <KINGOFSWORDS> its works btw thanks very much
[00:56] <edbian> KINGOFSWORDS: :D
[00:56] <Kindari> So now I'm thinking thought sda and sdc are my two data drives. which means my o.0 at different ammount of partitions is solved.
[00:56] <Juv1228> is it possible to compile and use libusb as 32bit, on a 64bit ubuntu install?
[00:56] <Juv1228> i have a python script that uses pyusb(which in turn uses libusb) and i have a feeling its libusb's fault
[00:56] <itaylor57> Juv1228: you can download 32 bit libs for a 64bit system
[00:57] <sndngnr> if there is no /data entry in fstab, it might not be mounted
[00:57] <sndngnr> cat /proc/mdstat
[00:57] <Juv1228> as the same exact setup works on 32bit
[00:57] <Juv1228> wasnt aware libusb was available precompiled
[00:57] <sndngnr> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID
[00:57] <KINGOFSWORDS> when i click GLX dock(cairo dock with openGL) if make mulitple copies of my cairo dock.....is there anything i can do to stop this?
[00:58] <itaylor57> !info libusb
[00:58] <sndngnr> there are some good commands at the bottom
[00:59] <Juv1228> !info libusb-1.0-0
[00:59] <Kindari> sndngnr: thanks for your help, I'll retrace everything I did.
[01:00] <Juv1228> so how would i go about installing the 32bit version of that through apt?
[01:00] <Juv1228> if thats how its done
[01:00] <itaylor57> Juv1228: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libusb
[01:01] <rhizmoe> silly question, but how do i get my email notifier to change colors again? is it only in specific themes (like ubuntu default)?
[01:01] <lenyem> how can I get a list of files between a certain size on my filesystem? I'm trying to pin something down. Can't I do this with find?
[01:02] <Juv1228> itaylor57, so i just grab the 32bit deb and run deb?
[01:02] <Juv1228> <-- long time windows moron just switched to ubuntu
[01:03] <gavdari> well, unity destroyed my laptop
[01:03] <itaylor57> Juv1228: you would want the 32 bit libs to be in a different location than the 64bit
[01:03] <Juv1228> well, for now ill just overwrite them
[01:03] <Juv1228> because i just want to see if this one script will work
[01:04] <gavdari> unity doesn't start on the startup, nothing works, just some windows without boarders or controls, what should I do?
[01:04] <Juv1228> and if i moved them i would have to change pyusb to find them
[01:04] <Juv1228> correct?
[01:04] <what_if> How can I disable the password length and complexity checks in ubuntu to allow a short simple password
[01:04] <itaylor57> Juv1228: this might help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/32bit_and_64bit
[01:05] <JAQK-Joker> Is there a Ubuntu irc channel where people can talk about anything?

[01:06] <JAQK-Joker> what_if: Yes what do you need?
[01:06] <gavdari> ok, so what should I do to return back to the login screen?
[01:06] <what_if> JAQK-Joker: oh... for ubuntu chat to talk about anything:  #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:07] <JAQK-Joker> what_if: Thank You
[01:07] <gavdari> suppose my system is set not to show the login screen on the startup, is there any way I force it to do so without using the options inside ubuntu?
[01:07] <rww> s/anything/most things/
[01:08] <Juv1228> well, not sure how this would work. but python is 64bit, ubuntu is 64bit and i want python to load a 32bit lib
[01:08] <Juv1228> so i would need to install a 32bit version of python too correct?
[01:09] <gavdari> does anyone even sees this?
[01:09] <rww> gavdari: yes
[01:09] <itaylor57> Juv1228: I probably have led you down the wrong path
[01:09] <gavdari> lol, I was getting delusional
[01:09] <Juv1228> itaylor57, probably, im pretty stupid
[01:10] <Juv1228> whats the simplest way to get my python script to load32bit libusb on 64bit ubuntu
[01:10] <airtonix> Juv1228: virtualenv
[01:11] <gavdari> ok, I need to create a launcher that logs out, what is the correct command?
[01:11] <airtonix> Juv1228: assuming your libusb is a python package.
[01:11] <Juv1228> it is not
[01:11] <Juv1228> the python script imports pyusb
[01:11] <Juv1228> which deals with libusb
[01:11] <Juv1228> !info libusb-1.0-0
[01:11] <Juv1228> that being libusb
[01:12] <airtonix> Juv1228: have you asked about this in #python ?
[01:12] <POPEYE> is there any way to fix right mouse button bug on ubuntu 9.04 ff3
[01:12] <Juv1228> sort of
[01:12] <Juv1228> they basically said it was libusb
[01:13] <rww> POPEYE: 9.04 is end-of-life and isn't supported here any mroe.
[01:13] <rww> !eol
[01:13] <Juv1228> "go ask in #ubuntu"
[01:13] <airtonix> Juv1228: i assume you're asking because libusb doesn't provide a 64bit version?
[01:13] <Juv1228> incorrect
[01:13] <Juv1228> it does
[01:13] <FloatingGoat> I love unity
[01:13] <Juv1228> i want 32bit
[01:13] <Juv1228> on 64bit ubuntu
[01:13] <FloatingGoat> how do I move launchers on the unity launcher?
[01:14] <FloatingGoat> 2D
[01:14] <FloatingGoat> unity 2D
[01:14] <airtonix> Juv1228: because pyusb doesn't load the 64bit version?
[01:14] <Juv1228> it loads it, but im getting some funky usb errors
[01:14] <Juv1228> so i assumed it was something to do with libusb
[01:14] <Juv1228> and it works on 32bit ubuntu in a VM
[01:14] <rww> Released versions of Ubuntu don't do multiarch, so have fun with that.
[01:15] <Juv1228> hence, 'lets try 32bit libusb'
[01:15] <hylian> POPEYE, it might be that for some reason nautilus is not starting. a good way to check this is to run a terminal session (gnome-terminal) and then type nautilus --no-default-window, and then leave the terminal window open and see if you can use the right mouse button.
[01:15] <airtonix> Juv1228: so you want to install both 32bit and 64bit versions of libusb on your 64bit system ?
[01:15] <qikky> hello, after installing ubuntu 9.10 (and deleting vista partition) and dual booting windows 7, grub2 cannot longer identify windows 7 but it identifies windows vista and when I boot into that it goes into recovery mode. Does anyone know how to fix this?
[01:15] <Juv1228> airtonix, correct
[01:16] <airtonix> Juv1228: i doubt pyusb is actually pointing at 64bit libusb on 64bit systems... it just tries to load libusb so if you had both.. how would it know which one to get ?
[01:17] <hylian> qikky, there is a command for refreshing the grub menu, which is escaping me at the moment.. it might help...
[01:17] <airtonix> Juv1228: unless of course the python bindings libusb provides are named libusb32 or libusb64
[01:17] <Juv1228> it would not, but once i get 32bit libusb installed i can worry about that
[01:17] <qikky> How could refreshing the menu help?
[01:17] <Juv1228> i believe it just calls a getlib or something to load the lib from whatever path it finds
[01:18] <Superstar> Say you ssh into a remote vps and you're in the middle of filling in automated prompts to configure something in an application and the terminal disconnects because it's been idle - is there anyway to ssh back and return to that shell?
[01:18] <Juv1228> so i can just load it in python manually or specify a path
[01:18] <airtonix> Superstar: use byobu or screen after your initial ssh login
[01:18] <rww> Superstar: nope. That's why people use screen.
[01:18] <rww> !screen
[01:18] <hylian> qikky, it's the update-grub command. sometimes the old grey matter doesn't fire on all cylinders, so to speak. :)
[01:19] <airtonix> Juv1228: no idea
[01:19] <Juv1228> my question isnt about loading it in python tho
[01:19] <Juv1228> its actually getting the 32bit version installed
[01:19] <Superstar> rww thanks dear
[01:19] <qikky> hylian, since it identifies the vista partition still, is it possible to edit that out with the windows 7 partition?
[01:19] <Juv1228> i assume i can just download the 32bit debs and install those to a non default location?
[01:20] <gavdari> could anyone please help me with window decoration in unity?
[01:20] <qikky> hylian, i think the settings are inside grub.cfg file but I'm not sure if sda4 is the only thing I edit.
[01:20] <Superstar> airtonix: yeh i didn't think
[01:21] <hylian> qikky, well, i am not a grub 2 comando, not an expert. here is the list of commands, and if you don't feel too overwhelmed with the console, you could do it.. :http://members.iinet.net/~herman546/p20/GRUB2%20Bash%20Commands.html
[01:21] <hylian> qikky, hmm, if you are running grub 1, yes. If it's grub 2, then no.
[01:22]  * hylian wonders why dev's don't add some gui controls to this stuff, not all of us are expoits! ;)
[01:22]  * edbian is an expoit
[01:24] <hylian> edbian, not an exploit, aye? LOL
[01:24] <edbian> haha
[01:24] <edbian> just an expoit
[01:24] <gavdari> I was playing with compiz on natty when suddenly everything went black, so I restarted, now I'm stuck with a pidgin and nothing else, no panel, no launcher, no close or minimize button, nothing at all. Is there anything I can do? c'mon guys help me out here.
[01:25] <edbian> gavdari: alt + F2 works?
[01:25] <gavdari> no
[01:25] <edbian> gavdari: ctrl + alt + F1
[01:25] <edbian> gavdari: does that work?
[01:26] <anon__> updated wine and still no sound
[01:26] <hylian> gavdari, sounds like nautilus isn't loading, can you type nautilus --no-default-window into a terminal window? (besides using the ctrl-alt-f1, etc)
[01:26] <anon__> if i hit shift+tab it wont let me close the screen either
[01:27] <FlameTai1> Hey guys is there anyway to get the new 4.0 firefox in LInux?
[01:27] <edbian> !FF4
[01:27] <edbian> FlameTai1: sure is
[01:27] <hylian> FlameTai1, probably, if you didnt mind a little console wet work.
[01:28]  * hylian sees that edbian is on the ball, thanks.
[01:28] <FlameTai1> edbian: Thank you.
[01:28] <edbian> I'm on fire :)
[01:28] <FlameTai1> edbian: Would you happen to know why Ubuntu is not coming with it? lol
[01:28] <hylian> anon__, hmm, this is specifically a wine problem?
[01:28] <anon__> idk?
[01:28] <edbian> FlameTai1: Because they don't update packages until a new version comes out.
[01:29] <hylian> anon__, let me rephrase that, you have sound in everything except wine?
[01:29] <anon__> oh yes
[01:30] <anon__> i havent tried any other games though
[01:30] <hylian> anon__, what version of 'buntu are you running?
[01:30] <anon__> 10.10
[01:31] <FlameTai1> edbian: Ah k thanks.
[01:31] <edbian> FlameTai1: no problem
[01:32] <codex84> after you install the kubuntu-desktop onto ubuntu how u use it?
[01:32] <hylian> anon__, from what i have read, the two likeliest culprits are either pulse audio, or a corrupted registry file. also some hardware causes this.
[01:32] <anon__> so what should i do?
[01:33] <hylian> anon__, how long ago did you install wine?
[01:33] <anon__> i just now updated it to the newest version
[01:33] <gavdari> edbian: sorry I was trying to return to the GUI mode, yes it worked, but I don't know how to restart x from there
[01:33] <hylian> anon__, wine 1.3, or did you mean wine 1.2
[01:33] <edbian> gavdari: well x is running if you have grahpics at all.  You should restart gdm:   sudo /etc/init.d/gdm
[01:33] <anon__> 1.3
[01:33] <weecol> did you have ctrl alt bs
[01:33] <gavdari> hylian: there is no panel so there is no launcher for terminal, ctrl + alt + t doesn't work eithrt
[01:34] <edbian> gavdari: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[01:34] <weecol> to close the xserver
[01:35] <RoDiMuS-X> How do I boot Ubuntu into command prompt from grub
[01:36] <gavdari> I restarted gdm but everything is the same
[01:36] <hylian> anon__, well, it's probably not the corrupted registry then... your two best options are to find out what your audio card is, and look up that with reference to wine, or to wholeheartedly remove pulse audio.
[01:36] <anon__> which would have a better chance of working?
[01:36] <edbian> gavdari: mmmm, what if you restart (that might be a much simpler way to solve the problem)
[01:37] <darthflatus> Howdy, as the requisite preamble, I have been looking for hours for this and numerous other problems on google... thus why i am finally here:  my system is crawling, and top shows that logrotate has been running for over 516 minutes around 90%, this just started today, any suggestions?
[01:37] <gavdari> I did restart, it takes me where I am right now
[01:37] <Cort> does anyone know how to change the icon set in ubuntu 11.04?
[01:37] <RoDiMuS-X> When I am booting ubuntu it appears to be hanging when launch GDM. How do I boot into command shell from grub?
[01:37] <edbian> gavdari: can you start your gnome-panels?  gnome-panel&  ?
[01:37] <gavdari> no
[01:37] <edbian> gavdari: or perhaps the window manager:   metacity --replace&
[01:38] <hylian> anon__, to be honest, wine has worked so well for me, that i have had very little experience troubleshooting it. You might want someone else's opinion first. If it where me, I would remove my audio card and add another. I only have about 70 of them lying around form old machines...
[01:38] <weecol> perhaps is logrotate got a locking problem
[01:39]  * hylian also has about 1 billion s3 trio's lying around... :(
[01:39] <Cort> sorry, how can i change the icon set in 11.04? the appearance app doesn't have anything for icons in it
[01:39] <banisterfiend> hey guys, if i want green colored text in the terminal i can do: "\e[33mtext" but how do i make it 'bold' instead?
[01:40] <RoDiMuS-X> Cort: Change Desktop Background, Themes, Click customize, click icons
[01:40] <hylian> Cort, there might not be a difference. the team has really focused their creative endeavors on unity.
[01:40] <RoDiMuS-X> Anyone know how I can boot into command shell from grub?
[01:40] <Cort> RoDiMuS-X: i'll try, thanks
[01:41] <gavdari1> restarting metacity or gnome-panel should be done from somewhere like Alt+F2 I guess
[01:41] <gavdari1> but all I have right now is this IRC channel and a console mode
[01:41] <edbian> gavdari1: compiz --replace&    ?
[01:41] <gavdari1> from the console mode?
[01:41] <hylian> i wish you could do graphical things from ctrl alt-f6 or something, a side console to f7. that would be uber handy.
[01:41] <gavdari1> hylian, I tried, nothing works
[01:42] <hylian> gavdari1, i don't think the terminal em's like ctrl alt f1 are gonna work because those are all strictly non graphics, they don't run anything graphical...
[01:43] <Cort> another question, is the top panel permanently on or can we autohide it?
[01:43] <gavdari1> hylian, you're right
[01:43] <CantWinn> I was thinking on installing WINE on Natty for some games. Which version might be better suited? 1.2.2 or 1.3.12?
[01:43] <rww> Cort: #ubuntu+1 for natty discussion and support, please
[01:43] <rww> CantWinn: you also
[01:43] <RoDiMuS-X> Can anyone help
[01:43] <Cort> rww: ah, thanks
[01:43] <hylian> gavdari1, someone is gonna scream at me, but i wouyld go to ctrl alt f1 and sudo apt-get remove that prog, get it running again, and then re-start. however, while this works fairly often, it is not a true solution.
[01:44] <UbuntuNoob> is there a way on xchat to ignore messages about users who join and leave the channel?
[01:44] <j5> anyone know why my laptop gets very hot running ubuntu but not that hot running windows?
[01:44] <RoDiMuS-X> I can't even do a CTRL-ALT-F1 to get to a terminal GDM is hosing my computer
[01:44] <RoDiMuS-X> Can anyone help me pleaseee
[01:45] <sec^nd> hi
[01:45] <gavdari1> hylian, what prog do you mean?
[01:45] <sec^nd> I need to update a computer that doesn't have internet access, what is the best way to get the packages ?
[01:45] <sec^nd> I'm not even sure which packages are needed
[01:46] <hylian> gavdari1, c somehting, my brain aint working, cor* you know i cant think.,
[01:46] <gavdari1> lol
[01:46] <weecol> have you looked up apt-offile#
[01:46] <gavdari1> I hate to install a fresh maverick, but I guess it's the only way
[01:46] <weecol> apt-offline
[01:46] <hylian> gavdari1, the one you where working on, the pretty graphics one. start with a c. I am brain dead.
[01:47] <Phong_> hi guys, help me with this: hd(0,0): NTFS5: No wubildr
[01:47] <airtonix> UbuntuNoob: right click the channel entry.
[01:47] <gavdari1> compiz?
[01:47] <Phong_> i try to install ubuntu within windows
[01:47] <Phong_> got this eror during boot up: hd(0,0): NTFS5: No wubildr
[01:47] <hylian> gavdari1, compiz
[01:47] <gavdari1> hylian, right, that may work, let me check
[01:47] <Phong_> can someone help me at all?
[01:47] <airtonix> !patience
[01:48] <airtonix> Phong_: sensible people don't use wubi
[01:48] <soreau> Phong_: Maybe you should just install using a traditional live cd
[01:48] <Phong_> well, is there a way to use part of my C: drive ?
[01:48] <steff12321> I need to load the package to let me display PHP files in apache2
[01:48] <Phong_> because my C drive is SSD
[01:49] <Phong_> I want to take advantage of SSD
[01:49] <graper> oba\
[01:49] <hylian> airtonix, while i agree with you, people are afraid of screwing up their machine, and know that a file on their hd is safer than actually parsing out some real estate on your hd :)
[01:49] <steff12321> Phong_: What are you trying to use your "c" drive for (such a windws term D: )
[01:49] <Phong_> i have 80GB SSD currently install windows ...all of it...i want to install ubuntu..but want to use this SSD as well.
[01:49] <steff12321> I need to load the package to let me display PHP files in apache2 <-- how do I do that?
[01:50] <gavdari> hylian, didn't work
[01:50] <anon__> should i use bastille on ubuntu 10.10?
[01:50] <edbian> Phong_: why do you think you can't do both?
[01:50] <hylian> gavdari, did you reboot? that was fast.
[01:50] <steff12321> Phong_: Create a raid0 "disk"
[01:50] <soreau> edbian: hylian: <gavdari> I was playing with compiz on natty when suddenly everything went black, so I restarted, now I'm stuck with a pidgin and nothing else, no panel, no launcher, no close or minimize button, nothing at all. Is there anything I can do? c'mon guys help me out here.
[01:50] <gavdari> yep
[01:50] <soreau> ! natty | gavdari
[01:50] <UbuntuNoob> thanks airtonix
[01:50] <gavdari> ok, I'm sorry, I'll take it there
[01:51] <airtonix> UbuntuNoob: i'm not even sure why it's default to have it on...
[01:51] <edbian> soreau: ctrl + alt + F1,  log in run compiz --replace& and switch back (ctrl + alt + F7)
[01:51] <soreau> edbian: *natty*
[01:51] <soreau> edbian: that's the key word here
[01:51] <hylian> soreau, what?!? how did that help gavdari? i still think it sounds like either gnome-panel or nautilus or both are not running... dang, let me think
[01:51] <edbian> soreau: ask in the other room :)
[01:51] <UbuntuNoob> airtonix: yeah it seems really inconvenient to me.
[01:51] <soreau> hylian: edbian: FWIW, it's just unity-fail
[01:51] <edbian> Is this a quiz?
[01:51] <Phong_> steff12321, does ubuntu allow you to install and partition windows C drive as space for it?
[01:52] <edbian> Phong_: Yes.  Basically you shrink the windows drive down and install Ubuntu in a new partition next to it.
[01:52] <UbuntuNoob> another quick question: if a file begins with a "." in one of my folders, what does that mean, and why can't i see it in the file manager
[01:52] <LetsGo67> Why does Ubuntu setup not allow me to click "Next" on the "Creatue user profile" page?
[01:52] <airtonix> i'm having some problems with sudo, why there is a significant pause between user input of sudo password and the expected terminal response when using sudo after the cache timeout ?
[01:52] <Phong_> oh
[01:52] <hylian> soreau, congrats, you get a cookie, now help me help gavdari, please.
[01:52] <TheOmnipotentPil> Hey, i have ubuntu on a flash drive to try it out, i love it, and i want to install it on my hard drive. If I install it with the "install ubuntu" icon on my desktop, will I be given the option to make it so my computer can boot to windows or ubuntu? And will i keep all my installed packages?
[01:52] <edbian> Phong_: 80 Should be enough room for both OSs if you don't have a lot of personal files
[01:52] <steff12321> Phong_: YEah, do you know how to do that? It clearly tells you in the installation, bud
[01:52] <soreau> hylian: After natty release, we'll support it here
[01:52] <weecol> . files are always hidden in unix
[01:52] <Phong_> edbian, well, what if later i want to get rid of ubuntu, can i combine the ubuntu back to windows?
[01:52] <brightspark> Phong_, you can partition the hard disk, but "C:" is still going to mean Windows' part.
[01:52] <edbian> Then I'll be useless :(
[01:52] <UbuntuNoob> how do i unhide them?
[01:53] <steff12321> edbian: I run xUbuntu on 6GB :)
[01:53] <edbian> Phong_: yes
[01:53] <gavdari> UbuntuNoob: ctrl+h
[01:53] <LetsGo67> Why is the Ubuntu setup nearly finished but frozen?
[01:53] <hylian> soreau, his problem currently a non desktop after installing compiz.... can you help gavdari?
[01:53] <edbian> steff12321: I run Debian :)
[01:53] <UbuntuNoob> TheOmnipotentPil: I think that if you install it it will give you an option to partition your drive
[01:53] <weecol> take off the . ort ask file manager to show hidden files
[01:53] <TheOmnipotentPil> If i install ubuntu from a bootable flash drive, will i keep my installed applications?
[01:53] <UbuntuNoob> thanks gavdari
[01:53] <Phong_> ok, i'm going to logout this pc and use a laptop to chat with you guys,
[01:53] <Phong_> brb okay?
[01:53] <airtonix> TheOmnipotentPil: if you created a casper persistance partition or file, then yes it will
[01:53] <steff12321> edbian: Do you know the backage to allow me to allow apache2 to run PHP files?
[01:54] <edbian> steff12321: I believe you just install php  ?
[01:54] <anon__> i just downloaded bastille how do i run it?
[01:54] <TheOmnipotentPil> i'm not sure if i have...
[01:54] <j5> anyone know why my laptop gets much hotter on ubuntu than windows or how to fix it?
[01:54] <TheOmnipotentPil> i'm a bit of an ubuntu noob
[01:54] <TheOmnipotentPil> =/
[01:54] <airtonix> TheOmnipotentPil: if you used the gui on ubuntu to create it and fiddled with the slider at the bottom. then you did
[01:54] <steff12321> edbian: Unable to locate package "php"
[01:54] <jt13> is there a channel for wine
[01:55] <edbian> steff12321: I'm not sure. Google it ;)
[01:55] <TheOmnipotentPil> no, i used a program to install ubuntu on my flash drive
[01:55] <UbuntuNoob> TheOmnipotentPil: haha dont worry i am too. it should keep everything you have as long as you dont erase the windows partition
[01:55] <brightspark> j5, same here.
[01:55] <edbian> winehq
[01:55] <airtonix> TheOmnipotentPil: the gui program i'm talking about is called "Startup Disk Creator"
[01:55] <steff12321> !google
[01:55] <theinkman> how come when i install 10.10 it gives me a command prompt when i boot up
[01:55] <steff12321> ^^ edbian haha
[01:55] <TheOmnipotentPil> i don't have a partition on my main drive....
[01:55] <laptop_user> hey edbian, i ended up just uninstalling and starting from scratch
[01:55] <edbian> steff12321: you caught me!
[01:55] <LetsGo67> WHY IS UBUNTU FROZEN?  :@
[01:55] <edbian> laptop_user: and?
[01:55] <laptop_user> edbian, problem solved lol
[01:55] <steff12321> edbian: Aha! Yer under arrest for now memorizing all of the factoids!
[01:56] <LetsGo67> ;'(
[01:56] <hylian> jt13, i think there is a channel for wine, give me asec.
[01:56] <steff12321> not*
[01:56] <edbian> laptop_user: I'm glad it's fixed.  I don't remember the issue though! :P
[01:56] <steff12321> !ping
[01:56] <edbian> steff12321: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[01:56] <theinkman> does anyone know
[01:56] <laptop_user> edbian, couldn't get past plymouth
[01:56] <hylian> jt13, it's #winehq
[01:56] <UbuntuNoob> TheOmnipotentPil: then i would suggest asking some of the more experienced users how to set up an ubuntu partition alongside an existing windows OS that takes up the whole drive, because im not sure how exactly to accomplish tht
[01:56] <edbian> ubottu: marvin...
[01:56] <edbian> laptop_user: I don't even know what plymouth is.
[01:56] <jt13> hylian, thank you
[01:56] <steff12321> edbian: thank you
[01:57] <laptop_user> edbian, i do have two questions for you though
[01:57] <laptop_user> edbian, plymouth is the splash screen
[01:57] <hylian> jt13 no prob, bob. :)
[01:57] <UbuntuNoob> TheOmnipotentPil: then i would suggest asking some of the more experienced users how to set up an ubuntu partition alongside an existing windows OS that takes up the whole drive, because im not sure how exactly to accomplish that
[01:57] <laptop_user> if you have one enabled
[01:57] <edbian> laptop_user: ah, what are your questions?
[01:57] <edbian> steff12321: no problem
[01:57] <jt13> it is however dead hylian
[01:57] <LetsGo67> Question #1. Why is Ubuntu frozen?  Question #2: Why is Ubuntu frozen?  and Question #3: WHY IS UBUNTU FROZEN?  :@  :'(
[01:58] <edbian> LetsGo67: What are you talking about?
[01:58] <hylian> jt13, i am afraid that problem i cannot solve. their is a winehq social club channel, that might be less dead, want the chat room name?
[01:58] <edbian> LetsGo67: the version?  Or your OS is frozen right now
[01:58] <jt13> hylian,  yes please if you dont mind
[01:58] <LetsGo67> Edbian: The Ubuntu 64-bit setup.  It happened TWICE.  And also any video editor is really buggy.
[01:58] <zach_> hi i hav a problem with empathy
[01:58] <UbuntuNoob> im running 10.10 and for some reason my laptop likes to hibernate for no apparent reason and i have enough time to see a message that has something that says what i think is "atiixp: codec reset timeout". the codec reset timeout im sure it says, and the rest i based of googling similar results
[01:58] <edbian> LetsGo67: ?  what?
[01:58] <steff12321> edbian: So how do I install it? Do I have to compile it? A LOT of people here know how that went last time I tried to compile something :P
[01:58] <hylian> jt13, it is #winehq-social.
[01:59] <laptop_user> edbian, my laptop is a HP laptop with the touch sensitive quick launch buttons... how do i identify its label so that i can go to keyboard shortcuts and assign something to the 2 that ubuntu didnt assign
[01:59] <edbian> steff12321: You shouldn't have to compile.  Let me take a closer look
[01:59] <jt13> hylian, thanks again
[01:59] <UbuntuNoob> LetsGo67: try a restart if your OS is frozen. unless you tried that
[01:59] <LetsGo67> Edbian: It won't finished installing and i cannot create an account.
[01:59]  * hylian says no prob to jt13.
[01:59] <Ben64> steff12321: what are you asking about?
[01:59] <KNUBBIG> Hi, I'm trying to install Ubuntu 11.04/10.10 on my pc, and 10.10 gives me an error about not being able to mount /dev/loop and something with casper, and 11.04 hangs up after checking for available space and asking whether it should download updates or not, when shutting it down via CTRL ALT 1 and then sudo reboot, it also hangs at something with casper. Any ideas?
[02:00] <itaylor57> LetsGo67: the user name must be in lower case
[02:00] <edbian> laptop_user: Use the keyboard shortcuts thing.  Pick an option, try to change its' keybinding.  Press the button you want.  It should fill it with something like   'xf86audiomute'
[02:00] <edbian> LetsGo67: what is your username?
[02:00] <steff12321> KNUBBIG: How much RAM do you have on the PC?
[02:00] <zach_> edbian when i log onto yahoo messenger and connect to the server it doesn't list the chat rooms
[02:00] <KNUBBIG> steff12321 16 GB
[02:00] <UbuntuNoob> 16 gigs? :OOOO
[02:00] <KNUBBIG> y
[02:00] <steff12321> KNUBBIG: Disk space?
[02:00] <KNUBBIG> 2 TB
[02:00] <steff12321> who
[02:00] <steff12321> nice comp you got there
[02:01] <edbian> zach_: No clue.  I don't use yahoo messenger
[02:01] <UbuntuNoob> ill say
[02:01] <steff12321> are you trying to install 32x or 64x ??
[02:01] <KNUBBIG> thanks, just got it, had ubuntu running fine on my old one
[02:01] <Ben64> steff12321: have you tried "sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5"
[02:01] <hylian> KNUBBIG, i may be a bit off the mark, but i remember seeing that message with a post i read about usb keys or removeable media. This is a faint memory about a post i read a mellenia ago, so like i said....
[02:01] <KNUBBIG> 64
[02:01] <zach_> should i try logging in and out?
[02:01] <KNUBBIG> hylian thanks i'll look for that
[02:01] <edbian> steff12321: sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5
[02:01] <steff12321> Ben64: works, thanks :)
[02:01] <Ben64> np
[02:01] <steff12321> KNUBBIG: server or desktop?
[02:01] <KNUBBIG> steff12321 desktop
[02:01] <UbuntuNoob> any clues as to my problem with the random hibernate and the black screen that says atiixp codec reset timeout when its going into hibernate mode?
[02:02] <LetsGo67> edbian steff12321: 64 bits
[02:02] <edbian> LetsGo67: 32 bits
[02:02] <LetsGo67> edbian: Why?
[02:02] <steff12321> KNUBBIG: Ahahah, well I dont wanna tell you how much of a waste of ram and money that is... ANYWAYS... Try the alternate install
[02:02] <Ben64> UbuntuNoob: have you tried disabling power management stuff?
[02:02] <steff12321> !alternate
[02:02] <edbian> LetsGo67: I only have 1 Gb of ram
[02:03] <KNUBBIG> steff12321 Ok, I will, thanks. I've got Windows 7 running atm, using it for VMs and stuff
[02:03] <UbuntuNoob> Ben64: like the autohibernate? i can try i guess, but it happens when im using the computer, so i doubt it would be from idling too long if thats what you mean
[02:03] <steff12321> edbian: I have 2.5GB, my rented server has more than my comp... How sad would that makeyou???
[02:03] <X-SuMiDoR> I figured it out thanks for the help
[02:03] <UbuntuNoob> steff12321: why would that be a waste of ram and money? just curious
[02:03] <LetsGo67> edbian: Whyh does 64GB exist?
[02:03] <LetsGo67> edbian: Whyh does 64-bit (sorry) exist?
[02:03] <vinicius> # ubuntu-br
[02:03] <laptop_user> edbian, ok... thought i had to do it the other way around.. i.e. know that this specific button is identified as x86blahblah in order to assign
[02:03] <X-SuMiDoR> 64bit = more than 4Gig of Memory
[02:04] <Ben64> 64 bit is twice as good as 32 bit
[02:04] <edbian> LetsGo67: It allows you to access more than 3.2Gb of ram and it is more efficient  :)
[02:04] <edbian> laptop_user: Nope.  Is that working for you?  (sometimes those buttons don't work at all)
[02:04] <edbian> Ben64: ahahaha
[02:04] <LetsGo67> edbian: So why doesn't Ubuntu give me a popup saying "There's no point of installing 32 bits" instead of just freezing twice on me?
[02:04] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, what version are you running? this seems to be a mute point, it looks like this problem was solved in 2005...
[02:05] <steff12321> UbuntuNoob: err, because Ubuntu doesnt need more than 1gb to operate, 2gb would be more than enough, 4GB would let you run almost all programs, if anuthin, 6Gb should let you run all of the programs ar=t a great performance... for ubuntu, anything above that is just wasted
[02:05] <kwtm> Ben64:  I'd say 33 bit is twice as good as 32 bit. And then 34 bit is twice as good as *that*. :)
[02:05] <edbian> LetsGo67: I have no idea why the installer is freezing.  You can install Ubuntu 32 bit on 64 bit hardware.  It won't hurt anything.  Some people prefer it (but not really anymore)
[02:05] <LetsGo67> edbian: But isn't Flash etc. not available for 64 bits?
[02:05] <slackaholic> haick !
[02:05] <wjd86> im trying to change permissions on a directory and its files, im looking at this webpage about permissions and im scratching my head...
[02:05] <edbian> LetsGo67: Linus Torvalds says that if you assume your users are idiots only idiots will use your software
[02:05] <Ben64> LetsGo67: flash works fine in 64 bit
[02:05] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: 10.10 very recently installed
[02:05] <edbian> LetsGo67: Flash on 64 bit is a solved problem
[02:06] <X-SuMiDoR> lol ebian I like that saying
[02:06] <LetsGo67> edbian y Ben64: and since when?
[02:06] <onecrazycat> i'm setting up two dhcp servers and i want one to be a backup… any good docs on how to do this?
[02:06] <laptop_user> edbian, havent tried. working on homework. im sure it will though. just thought that i had to query it in terminal (remember coming across a link that told how)
[02:06] <UbuntuNoob> steff12321: oh good point. i wasnt challenging btw just curious. knowledge greedy if you will
[02:06] <HyperShock> really? what about Ming the Merciless?
[02:06] <LetsGo67> edbian: Not really nice.  :(  :@
[02:06] <edbian> LetsGo67: IDK.  I don't use flash on 64 bits.  I wish I didn't have to use flash at all
[02:06] <UbuntuNoob> also, my ocmputer just decided to hibernate again as i was looking for an answer online....
[02:06] <Ben64> LetsGo67: for a pretty long time, adobe released it, then hid it, and released it again
[02:06] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, hmm, it's funny but most of the posts are dated 2005 or older, but their is 1 new post for 2010... i'm gonna have to do some digging, brb
[02:06] <edbian> laptop_user: there is probably some way to figure it out in the terminal
[02:06] <Ben64> http://forums.adobe.com/community/labs/flashplayer10/square64bit
[02:07] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: thanks, ill try too i guess
[02:07] <Ben64> uh oh, its gone
[02:07] <Ben64> :(
[02:07] <edbian> LetsGo67: Linus is not always the nicest :)
[02:07] <steff12321> UbuntuNoob: nah, just explaining :) Anyways, anything above 10GB, even on windows should run just about anything and more
[02:07] <HyperShock> UbuntuNoob, check your screen saver section and then your power management features, make sure you wack the "make default" button once you find it.
[02:07] <laptop_user> edbian, there is... just cant find that link again and dont remember how i came across it
[02:07] <Ben64> http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/square/
[02:07] <laptop_user> edbian, ok 2nd question
[02:07] <wjd86> how do i change the owner of a dir from root?
[02:07] <Ben64> its there now
[02:07] <loquitusofborg1> WHere do I get the sphere desktop option in Ubuntu? I only see the cube
[02:07] <LetsGo67> edbian & Ben64: it is annoying
[02:07] <edbian> laptop_user: ready and waiting
[02:07] <Ben64> wjd86: chown
[02:08] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: also, just to save time maybe, it doesnt say atiixp-modem codec reset timeout, i believe it there is no modem and it says "atiixp codec reset timeout"
[02:08] <wjd86> ahh kk
[02:08] <wjd86> thanks
[02:08] <edbian> wjd86: sudo chown newOwner filename
[02:08] <UbuntuNoob> steff12321: yeah i was surprised when i saw 16 GB the most ive see in 8 i think
[02:08] <wjd86> thanks
[02:08] <UbuntuNoob> HyperShock: will do thanks
[02:08] <KNUBBIG> loquitusofborg1 something like compiz-plugins-extra
[02:08] <HyperShock> wjd86, as root do "chown -R user:user <dir>"; highly suggest you do "man chown"
[02:09] <henrikl> Is there a way to create an upstart job that automatically starts and stops whether it has a network connection, i.e. whenever a LAN cable is plugged in or out? Is that what 'start on network' does?
[02:09] <adub> hi
[02:09] <UbuntuNoob> alright, i changed screensaver to 15 mins and hibernate to 30 mins so well see
[02:09] <ariel_> hello, I did a big mistake and would like to get my bottom bar back with the work space on the right side, how can I get this back.  I don't know how or what I pressed to make it go away.
[02:10] <edbian> ariel_: right click the top one and choose 'add new panel'
[02:10] <loquitusofborg1> KNUBBIG: thanks pal
[02:10] <edbian> laptop_user: what is this second question?
[02:10] <KNUBBIG> loquitusofborg1 np :)
[02:10] <veggteppe> Anyone got any experience running the game League Of Legends, in ubuntu using either Wine or Cedega?
[02:10] <RoDiMuS-X> ariel: gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel
[02:10] <RoDiMuS-X> rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/panel
[02:10] <RoDiMuS-X> pkill gnome-panel
[02:10] <HyperShock> ariel_, on the top bar, right click and choose new panel, then you see the bottom bar comes back, then right click it and choose add to panel and go through the list and add things back and move them as you please by right clicking them, unlock and lock as necessary
[02:10] <laptop_user> edbian, ok my mute button is blue, and when muted.... red... works fine... but when i shut down (muted) then restart... it restarts (muted) as it should, but the mute button isnt red this time.... is there a way to make it remember [ if muted -> button red ]
[02:10] <steff12321> Whats the package for mysql?
[02:11] <KINGOFSWORDS> ariel_ then right click on things you want and choose move
[02:11] <RoDiMuS-X> ariel: that will restore the default gnome panels
[02:11] <ariel_> great t/y
[02:11] <steff12321> Whats the package for mysql?
[02:11] <edbian> laptop_user: I don't think so.  Sounds like a disconnect between the hardware and the mutedness
[02:11] <edbian> laptop_user: You could figure out what module it is and remove it then re-instert it
[02:12] <HyperShock> steff12321, goto your synaptic and search for it, the answer will be revealed there. :)
[02:12] <laptop_user> edbian, what do you mean? how to figure out module?
[02:12] <theteju> is there a way to improve performance for flash player?
[02:12] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, you have me stumped. This appears to be possibly a audioo codec problem OR a network/internet problem. since the two are utterly unrelated, i am at a loss. can someone else help UbuntuNoob? I will keep looking
[02:12] <UbuntuNoob> laptop_user: my laptop should display a light when it is muted and no light when it isnt, and since i installed ubuntu it hasnt lit up when i press it to mute the sound, although the sound does mute just fine
[02:12] <steff12321> HyperShock: Thanks you :)
[02:12] <edbian> laptop_user: look in sudo lspci -k   (maybe it shows up there)  It will be called 'driver' though.
[02:13]  * HyperShock nods at steff12321
[02:13] <wjd86> edbian ; perfect now i can save my html :P
[02:13] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: hmm ill try to pay attention to if it happens only when sound is present then to see if it is an audio or network problem perhaps?
[02:13] <theteju> i have two system,, On one with intel on laptop,, the flash video plays fine.. while.. other system even though it has nvidia 430 GT the flash video hiccups
[02:13] <theteju> The source is same..
[02:13] <UbuntuNoob> its really more inconvenient than it is crippling; i can press the power button and be back to where i was within a minute or so
[02:14] <HyperShock> theteju, do you have the proper nvidia driver activated?
[02:14] <edbian> wjd86: hurray :)
[02:14] <theteju> HyperShock : I have glx 260
[02:14] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, that's the strange thing about ati ixp, it can be either. there are plenty of things on google to suggest this. it can be audio codec related, modem related, or network related, or all three... strange.
[02:15] <zruty> I have a raid card in my ubuntu box; how do I know how to addresss it? It is at this moment only configured in the BIOSes.
[02:15] <RoDiMuS-X> What is the purpose of XChat-GNOME seems to be missing functionality
[02:15] <laptop_user> edbian, http://pastebin.com/emXyCsri
[02:16] <Toph> what is the KDE desktop name. I'm attempting to download it
[02:16] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, either way this is related to ati hardware. have a ait gfx card or motherboard?
[02:16] <Bite> Where has software sources been moved to in the new gnome?
[02:16] <jiohdi> toph used to be kde4 I think
[02:16] <edbian> laptop_user: I was afraid.  I don't see it there.  Not sure how else to find out the module.
[02:16] <edbian> laptop_user: I know lsmod lists all the modules currently being used but that output is somewhat cryptic.
[02:17] <hylian> Bite, it's hidden. you can access it through synaptic, or go into the menu and make it visible again.
[02:17] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: i believe it has an ati graphics card, what is the terminal command to check my hardware?
[02:17] <KNUBBIG> UbuntuNoob should be lspci afaik
[02:17] <Bite> hylian: where exactly?
[02:17] <Toph> jiohdi,,, sudo apt-get install kde4   doesn't work either
[02:17] <laptop_user> i was thinking it might be that hp company driver thing
[02:17] <MaRk-I> RoDiMuS-X: xchat-gnome is a stripped version of the original XChat with less features and only the most common settings included (KISS principle).
[02:17] <HyperShock> UbuntuNoob, "lspci"
[02:18] <edbian> laptop_user: the driver being used is almost definitely the open source one
[02:18] <laptop_user> edbian, could it be line 64?
[02:18] <RoDiMuS-X> MaRk-I: so there is really no advantage to using Xchat-gnome
[02:18] <hylian> Bite, if you right click the main menu, and go to edit, it's somewhere in system, either preferences or admin, i'm thinking admin.
[02:18] <HyperShock> Toph, you're going to have open your synaptic, and install kde from the meta packages you can find them under the meta categories.
[02:19] <MaRk-I> RoDiMuS-X: other than simplicity, no you can install the regular xchat if you like
[02:19] <UbuntuNoob> hylian, im guessing it has an ati motherboard and gfx card because i see ati pop up multiple times for host bridge, pci bridge, etc
[02:19] <RoDiMuS-X> try: sudo apt-get kde-base
[02:19] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, not certain, i have an nvidia card, it works well.
[02:19] <edbian> laptop_user: could be.  That's a weird thing.  sudo modprobe -r k8temp and see what happens
[02:19] <Toph> HyperShock,,, thanks,, going there
[02:19] <RoDiMuS-X> MaRk-I: I just tried it for the first time and thought I was crazy because I was missing stuff
[02:19] <laptop_user> edbian, no feedback
[02:20] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, if you type nano /var/log/XFree86.0.log this should give you some clues hopefully, or you could gedit /var/log/XFree86.0.log
[02:20] <jiohdi> Toph, also kde-full
[02:20] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: i do know it has an ati gfx card, i remember that
[02:20] <edbian> laptop_user: Do the buttons light up / do anything?
[02:20] <WeThePeople> Pici, the skype wrapper cannot be found. do you know what is going on
[02:20] <Bite> I can't find the package ms-sys. Has it been removed?
[02:20] <MaRk-I> RoDiMuS-X: lol yeah, kind of "confusing"  I guess is just for emergencies when you need IRC help
[02:20] <RoDiMuS-X> Anyone else using Unity3D?
[02:20] <hylian> Bite it might be part of the winetricks add ons now.
[02:21] <laptop_user> edbian, yeah they work fine... just two arent mapped 'dvd' and 'quickplay' and the thing with the mute button not staying red on reboot
[02:21] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: i tried both of those, both were blank
[02:21] <hylian> RoDiMuS-X, didn't know 3d was even available yet.
[02:21] <edbian> laptop_user: put the module back in.  sudo modprobe k8temp   that wasn't it
[02:21] <RoDiMuS-X> yup I have it working with my ATI 4200 finally
[02:21] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, are you running a 64 bit version of ubuntu, because that would account for their being blank.
[02:22] <wjd86> anyone mind helping me with a noob issue?
[02:22] <Toph> jiohdi,,, that did it
[02:22] <RoDiMuS-X> Whats going on wjd86
[02:22] <hylian> wjd86, if you don't mind a possible noob answer :) i am only partly not noobish myself.
[02:22] <wjd86> im setting up a lampserver, and following a website ; http://grasshopperpebbles.com/ubuntu/setting-up-ubuntu-for-web-development/
[02:22] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: not sure, i downloaded it a looong time ago. how to check
[02:22] <UbuntuNoob> ?
[02:22] <steff12321> Ok, for some reason, this program wont detech mySQL
[02:23] <wjd86> when it comes to testing php
[02:23] <GatunoRox> Hello
[02:23] <UbuntuNoob> im going to assume help > about
[02:23] <veggteppe> Anyone got any experience running the game League Of Legends, in ubuntu using either Wine or Cedega?
[02:23] <laptop_user> edbian, put back in...
[02:23] <wjd86> im not sure what im supposed to see on http://localhost.pInfo.php
[02:23] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, i think the command is uname -a, but i could be wrong
[02:23] <edbian> laptop_user: maybe look at lsmod   ?
[02:23] <GatunoRox> How can I overcome my Bios Limitation of 137GB USB Hard Disk access?
[02:23] <hylian> exit
[02:24] <hylian> oops
[02:24] <root> airmon-ng
[02:24] <wjd86> <?php phpinfo(); ?> is what i see, but im not sure if thats what im supposed to see
[02:24] <GatunoRox> when booting syslinux*
[02:24] <UbuntuNoob> i got a lot of info about my laptop, but not about the version im running
[02:24] <jiohdi> GatunoRox, partitions?
[02:24] <RoDiMuS-X> wjd86: wanna make it easy, try this http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html
[02:24] <laptop_user> edbian, like i said... buttons work except the two unmapped. and then that mute button not staying red if it boots as muted
[02:24] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, it should either say x86-64 or x86-32
[02:25] <edbian> laptop_user: I'm thinking if you unload and load the module you can fix the red button problem.  As for the mappings, just set those up in keyboard shortcuts
[02:25] <RoDiMuS-X> if you are seeing <?php phpinfo(); ?> when you visit the page that means PHP module is not loaded
[02:25] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, for instance, my machine: x86_64 GNU/Linux
[02:25] <KNUBBIG> normally apt-get install apache2 php5 should do everything for you :o
[02:25] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: my laptop, 2.6.35-28-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 1 14:40:58 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux
[02:26] <edbian> hylian: Technically it's amd64   (there is no such thing as X86_64)
[02:26] <RoDiMuS-X> I tried that in the past still have to configure some stuff manually
[02:26] <GatunoRox> jiohdi: I boot Grub4DOS fine from syslinuz installed on the firt partition of my 640GB USB HDD, but it is unable to look after 137GB of my drive, as it stalls and crashes
[02:26] <KNUBBIG> mysql-secure-setup did everything I needed (only using it for development)
[02:26] <hylian> edbian, your right, but thats what uname -a gives me.
[02:26] <wjd86> so should i switch to xamp?
[02:26] <wjd86> or could i just fix this
[02:26] <RoDiMuS-X> I thought 64bit processors where still built on the x86 arch?
[02:26] <wjd86> and btw, i am totally new to this as well
[02:26] <edbian> hylian: what does it say exactly?  i686_64 or something?
[02:27] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, so that's not the proble, your running straight out 32 bit. hmm.
[02:27] <moes> UbuntuNoob, cat /etc/issue
[02:27] <laptop_user> edbian, how to load/unload module?
[02:27] <edbian> RoDiMuS-X: They are.  But technically they are their own architecture.  (obviously they're different than regular x86)
[02:27] <hylian> edbian it says x86_64 GNU/Linux. (copy and pasted from terminal, after typing uname -a
[02:27] <wjd86> im absolutely surprised at the amount of peer to peer help that comes with the ubuntu experience
[02:27] <UbuntuNoob> moes: Ubuntu 10.10 \n \l
[02:27] <UbuntuNoob>  is what i got
[02:27] <edbian> laptop_user: sudo modprobe <moduleName>  and sudo modprobe -r <moduleName>   figuring out the module name is the hard part
[02:27] <RoDiMuS-X> wjd86: did you do an apt-get install php5
[02:28] <edbian> hylian: interesting!
[02:28] <wjd86> the -cli ?
[02:28] <tjiggi_fo> hylian, edbian : it says :Linux AMD64 2.6.32-30-generic
[02:28] <edbian> hylian: that's not a thing I don't think.  Although it is clear what htat means
[02:28] <KNUBBIG> wjd86 only sudo apt-get install php5
[02:28] <hylian> tjiggi_fo, for you yes, for me no. i am not who needs the help though, i am trying to help UbuntuNoob.
[02:28] <wjd86> lol it just downloaded
[02:28] <wjd86> hate being noob
[02:28] <edbian> I am wrong?  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_64
[02:29] <laptop_user> edbian, which module?
[02:29] <KNUBBIG> wjd86 everyone starts small :)
[02:29] <wjd86> and possibly thank you, lets test it
[02:29] <edbian> laptop_user: that's what I mean.  I don't know
[02:29] <RoDiMuS-X> wjd86: nothing wrong with being a n00b
[02:29] <UbuntuNoob> wjd86: the p2p help is my favorite part. i find everyone on the IRC to be exponentially more helpful than any windows support i ever received. oh wait, thats because i had to pay for windows support and never go tany -__-
[02:29] <edbian> laptop_user: lsmod will list them all but I don't know how to tell what each one is used for
[02:29] <WeThePeople> if i uninstall skype will i lose my contacts
[02:29] <hylian> UbuntuNoob has a really strange error, and google says it's either a modem problem/net or a gfx problem...??
[02:29] <laptop_user> edbian, oh lol my bad
[02:29] <KNUBBIG> WeThePeople no
[02:30] <edbian> hylian: tjiggi_fo The article says it was renamed to amd64 in 2003
[02:30] <RoDiMuS-X> wjd86: I use xampp just because its quick and easy for development testing
[02:30] <laptop_user> edbian, how to use lsmod command? i know in terminal... do i sudo lsmod and thats it?
[02:30] <edbian> laptop_user: yeah
[02:30] <wjd86> nope php isnt loaded :/ :/ :/
[02:30] <edbian> laptop_user: you don't even need sudo
[02:30] <wjd86> same message
[02:30] <RoDiMuS-X> wjd86: you have to restart your apache server
[02:30] <KNUBBIG> wjd86 /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[02:30] <hylian> edbian, tjiggi_fo, yes, i know, and thanks :) i was just repeating uname from 10 minutes ago. I got me a strange machine or somehting.
[02:31] <wjd86> kk ill try
[02:31] <edbian> hylian: pre 2003 processor?
[02:31] <laptop_user> edbian, ok
[02:31] <hylian> edbian, acutally no, it's only 5 years old, but then again, it could have sat on a shelf for a couple of years.
[02:31] <edbian> I guess
[02:31] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: i was advised to run dmesg | grep ati | tail after it happened
[02:32] <edbian> maybe they didn't change the string on it right away
[02:32] <wjd86> unable to open logs [fail]
[02:32] <wjd86> ill pastebin it :/
[02:32] <RoDiMuS-X> wjd86: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[02:32] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, good idea, get all the data you can. i also suggest if you do have a 64 bit capable os to consider updating to the 64 bit version. it will handle your hardware better.
[02:32] <wjd86> :/
[02:33] <wjd86> restarted
[02:33] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, i meant 64 bit capable machine, my bad.
[02:33] <wjd86> same message at http://localhost.pInfo.php
[02:33] <WeThePeople> what is the command for removing skype
[02:33] <sevith> Can anyone point me in the direction where I can find everything that is compiled into the ubuntu kernels?
[02:33] <KNUBBIG> WeThePeople should be sudo apt-get remove --purge skype
[02:33] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: i think it would be, how would i check
[02:34] <RoDiMuS-X> wjd86: Oops! Google Chrome could not find localhost.pinfo.php
[02:34]  * hylian is running FVWM Crystal and loving it!
[02:34] <codex84> google is ur freind lol
[02:34] <laptop_user> edbian, http://pastebin.com/YJRbEt0H
[02:34] <WeThePeople> KNUBBIG, thankyou
[02:34] <edbian> laptop_user: It makes as much sense to me as it does to you right now buddy :)
[02:34] <RoDiMuS-X> wjd86: I would give xampp a try its easy
[02:35] <codex84> the new 11.ubtuntu
[02:35] <codex84> is pretty nciee
[02:35] <sevith> Can anyone point me in the direction where I can find everything that is compiled into the ubuntu kernels?
[02:35] <ubuntu> is this cheatcode "toram" supported for booting the CD? I wish to load the ubuntu cd in ram memory and install
[02:35] <ubuntu> ?
[02:36] <Phong_> do i have to select install alongside other operating system?
[02:36] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, it's cat /proc/cpuinfo in the terminal, although this will shoot out a ton of data.
[02:36] <Phong_> if i do, later on can i delete it
[02:37] <danny__> Anyone have any luck with Novatel 4G USB cards?
[02:37] <sndngnr> danny__: LTE or WiMAX?
[02:37] <laptop_user> edbian, how bout soundcore?
[02:37] <danny__> sndngnr: Verizon so LTE i believe
[02:38] <sevith> Anyone care to undertake a task :)
[02:38] <laptop_user> edbian, wait, should i be looking for the module for the quick launch buttons or the sound module?
[02:38] <danny__> haven't found anything googling the usb id
[02:38] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: i did that and this was what seemed relevant: clflush size	: 64
[02:38] <UbuntuNoob> cache_alignment	: 64
[02:38] <UbuntuNoob> address sizes	: 40 bits physical, 48 bits virtual
[02:39] <tjiggi_fo> UbuntuNoob: cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep flags and if you see "lm" (for Long Mode) in there then your CPU is 64 bit
[02:39] <sndngnr> danny__: LTE is next on list, working on WiMAX at the moment (@work, networking...)
[02:39] <sndngnr> sorry...
[02:39] <ubuntu> any help bot on the channerl?
[02:39] <ubuntu> channel?
[02:39] <GatunoRox> What's the best way to have a portable Full installation of Ubuntu on USB HDD, in a way it wouldn't be affected by BIOS device adressing (hdX,Y), and be able to overcome 127GiB USB BIOS limitation?
[02:39] <danny__> sndngnr: cool enough.  I found a driver for an LG 4G card that seems to be similar
[02:39] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, do you have any audio when the machine runs?
[02:40] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: yeah, im listening to music right now
[02:40] <sevith> 127gb usb bios?
[02:40] <sevith> Thats a huge bios?
[02:40] <UbuntuNoob> tjiggi_fo: i do see lm thanks
[02:40] <tjiggi_fo> Phong_, how big is your harddrive?
[02:40] <tjiggi_fo> UbuntuNoob, k
[02:40] <sevith> GatunoRox, Can you rephrase that?
[02:41] <sndngnr> tjiggi_fo: keep it clean...
[02:41] <UbuntuNoob> how would i upgrade from the 32 bit of 10.10 to the 64 bit without doing a new install?
[02:41] <sndngnr> ;)
[02:41] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, this is one error that is gonna be a toughy to nail down. It could be your sound card, your motherboard, your video card, or all three if the audio and video card are integrated... I am afraid I am personally stumped, sorry.
[02:41] <tjiggi_fo> sndngnr, what did I say that wasn't?
[02:41] <sndngnr> nevermind...
[02:42] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: its all good thank you very much for the attempt
[02:42] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, well, thanks, but I wish i could have helped you out...
[02:42] <arand> UbuntuNoob: Generally, you don't, it mainly boils down to the fact that in almost all cases, it will be easier to backup and reinstall.
[02:42] <sevith> Can anyone point me in the direction where I can find everything that is compiled into the ubuntu kernels? Google yields no results and ubuntu website docs are really what im looking for.
[02:43] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, i would definetely try the 64 bit os, it might solve your problems.
[02:43] <UbuntuNoob> gah thats my third install in 2 days
[02:43] <tjiggi_fo> UbuntuNoob, you have to do a clean install to replace 32 with 64
[02:43] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, or don't and live with it, if it's not too annoying... :)
[02:43] <GatunoRox> Have Ubuntu prperly installed onto USB HD in a way it could be used in any PC that supports booting from USB, as I tried installing it normally and having Grub problems as it searches for bootfiles on (hdX,Y), which varies depending on BIOS
[02:44] <GatunoRox> *and had
[02:44] <UbuntuNoob> honestly im probably going to live with it just to avoid transferring the data around again
[02:45] <hylian> GatunoRox, i had the same problem. it's because the bios marks it as a hd, and then when the machine reboots, the drive is not where it was before. drives me nuts.
[02:45] <danno> Howdy
[02:45] <laptop_user> will a knowledgeable person take a few seconds to help me identify how to fix my mute button? led is blue... red when muted. but if system boots as muted... it remains blue. i have a pastebin of my modules
[02:45] <hylian> danno, howdy back pad'ner. how are you today?
[02:46] <danno> Has anyone else been trying out the 11.04 beta?
[02:46] <sevith> laptop_user, go into the system keyboard shortcuts and make the button mute?
[02:46] <danno> hylian: good, thanks; yourself?
[02:46] <GatunoRox> hylian: yes. I tried UUID, wich wouldn't solve my problem, tried Grub4DOS, wich couldn't read past 127GB of my HDD, and I don't know a way of booting it through syslinux
[02:46] <DaGeek247> i have joined ubntu!
[02:46] <Seven_Six_Two> danno, there is a dedicated channel for 11.04  #ubuntu+1
[02:46] <hylian> laptop_user, i can try, although the key here is knowledgeable, and i have a netbook with few buttons..
[02:47] <WeThePeople> my right clicker is not working on my mouse, how would i access the panel to remove a icon
[02:47] <laptop_user> sevith, what do u mean... the button works functionally to mute but... on reboot it doesnt stay red
[02:47] <hylian> GatunoRox, i saw a howto once, let me take a quick gander.
[02:47] <EnigmaticCoder> WeThePeople:  hover over it and click that menu button on your keyboard
[02:47] <danno> Seven_Six_Two: Nice; thanks!
[02:48] <EnigmaticCoder> WeThePeople: it's by alt, ctrl, and windows keys
[02:48] <laptop_user> hylian, like i told sevith, functionally the button works... just doesnt stay red if rebooted and muted
[02:48] <GatunoRox> hylian: I'd really appreciate. I'm trying it for a week. IDK how many Times I've Formatet the MBR so I could try again in another way
[02:48] <WeThePeople> EnigmaticCoder, it doesnt work.
[02:49] <Seven_Six_Two> WeThePeople, are you trying to remove a file or folder from your desktop, or something from your menus?
[02:49] <hylian> laptop_user, i didn't see your older posts, what model is it?
[02:50] <Seven_Six_Two> WeThePeople, sorry, I got it now. the panel...
[02:50] <GatunoRox> hylian: this only tells me a bootloader really need a proper USB access driver so it doesn't depend on BIOS
[02:50] <laptop_user> hylian: hp dv2000 quick launch buttons. i googled, but could not find much

[02:52] <cached> Is there a way to request a refund from ubuntu one music store? The file I bought has been stuck on the queue for about 25 minutes now. I should have just purchased from Amazon (for cheaper!!)

[02:54] <zruty> How to find out which device my raid is?
[02:55] <tjiggi_fo> WeThePeople, it takes you to a virtual terminal
[02:56] <hylian> GatunoRox, i cant find that blasted page now. i remember i used the -live in my google search. anyways, all is good except for grub rights the data to the wrong device. you can even fix this temporarily by going into the grub commadn area when it first starts. my mind is lost, sorry.
[02:56] <Seven_Six_Two> WeThePeople, I know how to remove something from the panel without right click. I wouldn't say it's the right way, and might leave some mess
[02:57] <hylian> laptop_user, as for the lights thing, man you where right, i cam up with nothing of use. as for where to put your data, i would consider either ubuntu's launchpad or a free google blog.
[02:57] <michael_> whats up room
[02:57] <Slother> wutup michael_
[02:57] <michael_> how are you
[02:57] <michael_> slother
[02:57] <laptop_user> !info ubuntu launchpad
[02:57] <Slother> good michael_ ur not mktech are you?
[02:58] <FlameTai1> Hey guys is there anyway to make the desktop background in Linux change every so seconds?
[02:58] <GatunoRox> hylian: my problem is that it returns me a File no found or Device not found, so it doesn't access stage 2, cornering me in a way I can't boot
[02:58] <laptop_user> !info launchpad
[02:58] <michael_> whats that
[02:58] <cached> Okay. Last time I use ubuntu one to buy music. Delivery of a single mp3 should not take over 30 minutes.
[02:58] <Slother> michael_, nothing :D
[02:58] <laptop_user> hylian, what is launchpad?
[02:59] <hylian> GatunoRox, i take that back, grub rights the data to the right device, but doesn't know it needs to flip the hd2,2 (for instamce to be hd0,0. so when you re boot, grub tries to load from 2,2, which either doesn;t exist, or is just in the wrong spot, i.e. hd 1,1 or hd 0,0 instead of hd 2,2. (this is for my machine and not on everyone's., it will be different for you slightly.)
[02:59] <Seven_Six_Two> FlameTai1, I don't know of an easy way, but if you look for the wallpapers that look like a stack, then find them on your filesystem, you'll also find an xml file nearby that dictates how they change. You can use that as a template
[02:59] <michael_> why for slother
[02:59] <KNUBBIG> FlameTai1 take a look at http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/All+Day+Long+(Animated+Wallpaper)?content=83443 for hwo to do it
[02:59] <WeThePeople> Seven_Six_Two, what is it
[02:59] <michael_> you need a tech about something
[02:59] <edgarallanpoe> is there a way to make gedit open with python syntax highlighting by default
[03:00] <Seven_Six_Two> WeThePeople, run gconf-editor in a terminal. go to apps >> panle
[03:00] <Slother> michael_, Jw.
[03:00] <Seven_Six_Two> panel
[03:00] <Slother> Whats the dev package for qt4?
[03:00] <bonhoffer> how do i find what app is using port 80 ?
[03:00] <DaGeek247> FlameTai1of course! figure out how to change the desktop background using bash and the make a script that starts with your pc that changes it every so often. :)
[03:00] <hylian> laptop_user, launchpad is a place to post bugs and solves for linux distro's (as well as others), and ubuntu has it's own section.
[03:00] <bonhoffer> and then kill it?
[03:00] <AlienFrk> hi all... I'm trying to settup apache +SSL on ubuntu, is there a decent recommended howto?
[03:00] <laptop_user> hylian, link?
[03:01] <Slother> bonhoffer, Sure your not surfin the internet?
[03:01] <Seven_Six_Two> WeThePeople, Some things on the panel are applets and some are objects. Use this with caution, because it won't warn you if you do something dumb.
[03:01] <GatunoRox> hylian: really... it's driving me nuts... even my blackbelt googlefu isn't helping...
[03:01] <michael_> oh no i just fiddle wit stuff still in newbe status
[03:01] <bonhoffer> Slother, i am, but i want to set up a new webserver
[03:01] <michael_> brb
[03:01] <Slother> bonhoffer, Your using apache?
[03:01] <KNUBBIG> laptop_user launchpad.net
[03:01] <bonhoffer> nginx: [emerg] bind() to <IP_ADDRESS>:80 failed (98: Address already in use)
[03:02] <bonhoffer> trying to use nginx
[03:02] <GatunoRox> hylian: worse part is: I'm a total linux noob... started it last week, just before running into this mess
[03:02] <FlameTai1> Seven_Six_Two, KNUBBIG, and DaGeek247 thank you for the suggestions.
[03:02] <laptop_user> knubbig, fair enough lol
[03:02] <KNUBBIG> hehe :)
[03:03] <GatunoRox> hylian: I'd say I've learned more about linux this last week I couldn't have imagined
[03:05] <MeXTuX> I installed a RAID1 on a Ubuntu server but when I type fdisk -l a message says that /dev/md0 doesn't have a valid partition table :( http://paste.ubuntu.com/593385/
[03:05] <Seven_Six_Two> GatunoRox, and that's just the beginning. Do you want to find out how far down the rabbit hole goes?
[03:05] <hylian> GatunoRox, i found it! http://www.novell.com/communities/node/4536/how-create-external-usb-bootable-linux-hard-drive-without-dual-boot
[03:06] <GatunoRox> Seven_Six_Two: not righ now! Thanks lol! I've had enough of crack for the week xD

[03:07] <hylian> GatunoRox, did you get my link, this was my solve earlier... http://www.novell.com/communities/node/4536/how-create-external-usb-bootable-linux-hard-drive-without-dual-boot
[03:07] <UbuntuNoob> so i went to the AllDayLong link with the desktop background that changes depending on the time of day. i would like to make this same thing, but with my own pictures. any tutorials or pointers on how to do this?
[03:07] <hylian> laptop_user, i had to make one myself.
[03:07] <GatunoRox> hylian: yeah thanks
[03:08] <GatunoRox> hylian: Checking it right now
[03:08] <Seven_Six_Two> WeThePeople, you can, but it's not always obvious how.  Just kidding.
[03:09] <KNUBBIG> UbuntuNoob I think so, just give it a try
[03:09] <UbuntuNoob> on the other hand, i would rather learn how to write some sort of script in terminal myself
[03:09] <KNUBBIG> Than try that, it's entertaining and fun :)
[03:09] <WeThePeople> hylian, a intel user
[03:09] <KNUBBIG> Then* (I think :p)
[03:09]  * hylian likes WeThePeople's response
[03:09] <keady> hey guys. so i recently restarted my computer and now i get this error when booting ubuntu with grub: Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) -- i did some googling and it sounds like it's not selecting my boot partition properly [which is (hd0,2) or /dev/sda2] . however, the grub entry does say "set root='(hd0,2)" . any ideas?
[03:09] <GatunoRox> hylian: is there a way to boot linux live images from Grub2?
[03:10] <GatunoRox> *I'm already assuming the solution will work xD*
[03:10] <UbuntuNoob> id like to, but i havent the faintest clue on where to start. i could navegate to the picture i would want to be my first background, second, third, etc, but i dont know how to use terminal to set them as the background or make it so they change at tie intervals
[03:10] <hylian> GatunoRox, yes, though I have never tried it myself. I tried to help a guy the other night with that one. i was to burned out to finish with him.
[03:10] <keady> using grub 1.9801ubuntu10, lucid
[03:11] <UbuntuNoob> also, is there a way in terminal to navigate to a subfolder of the folder youre currently in without typing the full path name?
[03:11] <cosgroveb> is it possible to install specific packages on an external drive that is not always mounted?
[03:11] <student-10_> xxx
[03:11] <KNUBBIG> UbuntuNoob cd foo
[03:11] <KNUBBIG> cd bar
[03:11] <KNUBBIG> ?
[03:11] <GatunoRox> hylian: if this works I'll call you BFF for freeing me from this royal pain lol
[03:11] <student-10_> why
[03:11] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, there are several, but one i like is mc or midnight commander. very usefull for running around your files tructure without typing a million words a minute.
[03:11] <Seven_Six_Two> UbuntuNoob, yes, just start with the next directory down. If you're in /home/myuser and you want to go to /home/myuser/a/b  use  cd a/b
[03:12] <taglass> UbuntuNoob:  sure.  lets say I'm in my home directory and I wanted to be in /home/taglass/Documents/spreadsheets.. just type cd Documents/spreadsheets.
[03:12] <GatunoRox> the only reason why I want full install is so that I can update kernel/install drivers
[03:12] <GatunoRox> otherwise I'd stick with liveUSB
[03:13] <student-10_> how to change folder background
[03:13] <hylian> GatunoRox, also, ubuntu doesn't come with some key things i needed to stay installed, like flash plugin and java, just for starters.
[03:13] <KNUBBIG> UbuntuNoob TAB for autocompletion is also very useful :)
[03:13] <UbuntuNoob> for instance, from my ~/ folder, i used cd /Pictures to get to pictures. from here i want to go to wallpapers, but without typing cd /Pictures/Wallpapers. how can i get it so i coud just type cd /Wallpapers or something similar?
[03:13] <Seven_Six_Two> GatunoRox, I believe there's a few utilities that will let you roll your own iso from an install, or from a custom filesystem
[03:13] <student-10_> Woow!
[03:13] <KNUBBIG> UbuntuNoob cd Wallpapers
[03:14] <Seven_Six_Two> UbuntuNoob, drop the leading /   that means you want to start from the root of the filesystem
[03:14] <KNUBBIG> cd /Wallpapers would try to access the folder Wallpapers on root level
[03:14] <UbuntuNoob> ohhhh thanks all
[03:14] <taglass> There'sa ctually a way to do that, but I haven't looked at it in years.  is path completion
[03:14] <GatunoRox> Seven_Six_Two: please rephrase, IDK if I understood right, sorry
[03:14] <taglass> sec
[03:14] <UbuntuNoob> ill be back in a little bit to ask more random questions for whoevers up to it
[03:14] <Big_bear> excuse me, did anyone call MS technology support?
[03:15] <Big_bear> sorry
[03:15] <Big_bear> my mistaken
[03:15] <Big_bear> sorry
[03:15] <hylian> GatunoRox, what he is saying is that you could re-roll your own personal distro, and then just use the live cd install version. it's another solution, although the one your working on, once completed will be less work.
[03:15] <Big_bear> wrong channel
[03:16] <Seven_Six_Two> GatunoRox, I've never done it, but there are utilities available from synaptic that will let you create your own live cd. so you get what you need installed in to a special place. whatever kernel you want, and apps. then the utility makes an iso (cd image) that you can burn. It might be harder than that, but you don't have to do it all by hand
[03:16] <noobguy> hello all
[03:16] <hylian> Big_bear, i would be surprised if someone said they did, LOL :)
[03:16] <jjmalina> what is the best package to simply install git on ubuntu?

[03:17] <GatunoRox> Seven_Six_Two: Thank's but unfortunately I'm only interested in Live Images so I can test distros, I'd like to maintain my full instalation running portable though
[03:18] <hylian> noobguy, ok, do you have an error message, more details please.
[03:18] <KNUBBIG> noobguy Probably someone wants to stop you from making the mistake ans installing netbeans ;-)
[03:18] <KNUBBIG> and*
[03:18] <Seven_Six_Two> GatunoRox, oh I see... You could test them in a vm easily enough, unless you need to test hardware interaction specifically
[03:19] <hylian> GatunoRox, yeah, virtual box could do it. I use it like that all the time.
[03:19] <WeThePeople> why does skype disappear when i log in
[03:19] <GatunoRox> I have multiple PC's at home, so I can test multi-case scenarios
[03:19] <hylian> noobguy, please give more details, thanks. :)
[03:19] <KNUBBIG> WeThePeople maybe it automatically minimizes?
[03:20] <hylian> lucky bugger.
[03:20] <Seven_Six_Two> GatunoRox, hey, I've never thought of that...That's a good idea. No more burining discs just to try it out
[03:20] <taglass> UbuntuNoob: the CDPATH environment variable is what you are looking for to change directories.
[03:20] <GatunoRox> I own 7 pcs, which gives me a good scenario base, as I have multiple desktops , 2 notebooks and a netbook
[03:20] <WeThePeople> KNUBBIG, its not in the upper panel or the lower panel
[03:20] <KNUBBIG> WeThePeople look if its still running via ps aux | grep skype
[03:21] <hylian> GatunoRox, i tipmy hat to thee. I have 2 pc's and a netbook, and I thought I was excessive :P LOL
[03:21] <GatunoRox> interestingly, almost all with different BIOS manufacturers
[03:22] <GatunoRox> I'm 17, currently living with parents and sister, so I have acces to all, not necessarily all of them are mine
[03:22] <hylian> noobguy, hello?
[03:22] <GatunoRox> I just own the note, net and a Desktop
[03:22] <WeThePeople> KNUBBIG, skype showed up in red
[03:22] <keady> alright, so i got a little further. so i'm trying to boot but for some reason, the kernel isn't recognizing my partitions... it says "Please append a correct 'root=' boot option; here are the available partitions:" and then doesn't give a list of partitions... like it's not realizing there are any partitions. any idea?
[03:22] <KNUBBIG> WeThePeople so it's still running hum
[03:24] <WeThePeople> KNUBBIG,  sudo ps aux | grep skype pm        1665  0.0  0.2   3320   804 pts/0    S+   22:21   0:00 grep --color=auto skype
[03:24] <KNUBBIG> WeThePeople so it's not running :)
[03:24] <SPEL3O> Hey all, is anyone here good in configuring lighty? God am I having troubles..
[03:24]  * hylian thinks someone likes the constitution preamble.
[03:24] <KNUBBIG> start Skype in terminal via skype and look for the output
[03:24] <KNUBBIG> there should be an error message
[03:25] <SPEL3O> Anyone?
[03:25] <WeThePeople> KNUBBIG, command?
[03:25] <hylian> SPEL3O, sorry man, don't even know what lighty is, wish i had better news for ya.
[03:25] <KNUBBIG> skype
[03:25] <KNUBBIG> :p
[03:25] <KNUBBIG> hylian haha that's exactly what I thought :D
[03:26] <HyperShock> SPEL3O, what do you mean by "lighty"?
[03:26] <noobguy> i just tried to install libcortado-java again using synaptic package manager and it says E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libasm3-java_3.2-3ubuntu1_all.deb: subprocess dpkg-deb --control returned error exit status 2
[03:26] <GatunoRox> When loaded from USB, Grub2 inherits the BIOS limitations of only accessing the first 127GB of the drive?
[03:26] <SPEL3O> Lighty as in lighttpd the http server
[03:26] <hylian> noobguy, give me a sec to look that up...
[03:27] <noobguy> ok hylian
[03:27] <WeThePeople> KNUBBIG, no error, the login window poped up, 'i didnt type a thing' and it closed
[03:27] <HyperShock> now you will get some help, i don't have experience in that. :(
[03:27] <SPEL3O> I had it configured and everything, then I installed php and mySQL and had to mess with the conf file and my site went KABLOOEY
[03:27] <KNUBBIG> WeThePeople And there's nothing in the console?
[03:27] <SPEL3O> Anyone have a http server to suggest?
[03:27] <HyperShock> you didn't have a backup?
[03:27] <WeThePeople> KNUBBIG, no
[03:28] <HyperShock> SPEL3O, have you tried apache?
[03:28] <SPEL3O> HyperShock, nope, is it easy to configure?
[03:28] <KNUBBIG> WeThePeople If not, I don't know anything you could do...possibly try pidgin with the skype plugin just to try it, but ni, sorry
[03:28] <WeThePeople> KNUBBIG, it says aborted
[03:28] <hylian> noobguy, you have broken packages. nothing to get worried about, do you know the terminal/console well?
[03:28] <Seven_Six_Two> SPEL3O, I use apache2. A basic config isn't too difficult.
[03:28] <noobguy> a little hylian
[03:29] <noobguy> but i can manage... i guess
[03:29] <Nick_Meister> hi guys im getting this error The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[03:29] <hylian> noobguy, ok, type this into terminal: sudo apt-get install -f (it will ask for your password most likely)
[03:29] <Nick_Meister> and i cant install or remove software because of it
[03:29] <Nick_Meister> purge dont work
[03:29] <noobguy> ok
[03:29] <KNUBBIG> Nick_Meister try sudo apt-get install -f
[03:29] <Nick_Meister> KNUBBIG, doesnt help
[03:29] <KNUBBIG> oh
[03:29] <Nick_Meister> its trying to overwrite some libraries
[03:29] <Nick_Meister> from a previous version or something
[03:30] <Nick_Meister> computer janitor helped me when i had this issue once
[03:30] <Nick_Meister> but its not install
[03:30] <Nick_Meister> ed
[03:30] <hylian> Nick_Meister, i had this problem, i had to first remove the offending package from /var/cache/apt/archives then i did an update.
[03:30] <Nick_Meister> and neither is synaptic
[03:30] <noobguy> k done . it replies : Reading package lists... Done
[03:30] <noobguy> Building dependency tree
[03:30] <noobguy> Reading state information... Done
[03:30] <noobguy> The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
[03:30] <noobguy>   linux-headers-2.6.35-22 linux-headers-2.6.35-22-generic
[03:30] <noobguy> Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
[03:30] <FloodBot1> noobguy: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:30] <noobguy> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 9 not upgraded.
[03:30] <Nick_Meister> hylian, how do i find what to remove
[03:31] <hylian> noobguy, ok, now attempt to do what didn't work before.
[03:31] <laptop_user> is there a way to log what happens when a button is pressed? specifically, the mute button.. it has a led in it and when muted, turns red
[03:31] <anon__> i just downloaded i2p how do i start it?
[03:32] <hylian> Nick_Meister, well, if you run synaptic, or do what KNUBBIG said, you should see an error message with your problem package
[03:32] <bkfitz> hello
[03:32] <NickF> Has anybody had random reboot problems with Ubuntu 10.04 or 10.10 64-bit?
[03:32] <noobguy> it says : libcortado-java is already the newest version. .. is it working then.. ?? !
[03:32] <bkfitz> looking for help with mod_rewrite in apache
[03:32] <bkfitz> can anyone help
[03:32] <bkfitz> looking for help with mod_rewrite in apache
[03:33] <hylian> noobguy, it shure sounds like it.
[03:33] <anon__> anyone?
[03:33] <hylian> NickF, not at all.
[03:33] <GatunoRox> hylian: Great... now my pc hangs after selecting the device, it flahes a type dash and stops, ot loading grub at all
[03:34] <hylian> GatunoRox, great, just let me smash my head into my desk, and we can continue...
[03:34] <NickF> hylian: Thanks. Two different systems in two different buildings, both have random reboots. Was hoping it was systemic.
[03:34] <noobguy> hylian ... :) let me install netbeans then
[03:34] <GatunoRox> xD
[03:34] <noobguy> thanks hylian !! See you soon :)
[03:34] <hylian> noobguy, great to be of some help.
[03:35] <NickF> 32-bit is rock-solid. 64-bit gives random reboots
[03:35] <GatunoRox> I only get it to boot if I set my HDD to force FDD, but then it say no such device followed by UUID
[03:35] <Nick_Meister> hylian, ok so i removed the debs but it did not help anything :(
[03:35] <Nick_Meister> ls
[03:35] <hylian> NickF, all i can tell you is that my, rather older 64 bit hardware runs like a champ. maybe it's because you have different/not ancient hardware. LOL
[03:35] <HyperShock> GatunoRox, why are using a FDD?
[03:36] <rumpe1> laptop_user, xev
[03:36] <anon__> anyone know anything about i2p on ubuntu?
[03:36] <Nick_Meister> hylian, well what happened was i added a repository with a newer package to the apt-get and then tried to do an install but forgetting to run update, and somehow the two packages got mixed
[03:36] <Nick_Meister> and now im in this situation :(
[03:37] <NickF> hylian: Could be! Both brand new quad-core processors. Diff mbrds, both 8G, two different cases (power supplies)... not running anything that's not in the repositories (except Chrome)
[03:37] <hylian> Nick_Meister, now you will have to a) run sudo apt-get install -f, and then perhaps run a fix for dpkg, and then try and re-install whatever you where trying to install.
[03:37] <GatunoRox> HyperShock: I'm not, I'm tryint to boot from my USB HDD
[03:37] <laptop_user> rumpe1, thanks... i think i figured out a solution.... ledd (scriptable led manager)... how to use xev?
[03:37] <GatunoRox> but the only way I get a response from it now is when I use Bios to Force FDD on it
[03:37] <anon__> how i start I2p?
[03:37] <Nick_Meister> hylian, well it doesnt work
[03:37] <Nick_Meister> hydh, install -f fails
[03:38] <UbuntuNoob> okay im back. i located my pictures in terminal and i want to set one of them as the background. how can i do that through terminal?
[03:38] <laptop_user> !info xev
[03:38] <hylian> GatunoRox, it sounds like in your attempt to get your usb to work, you somehow wrote to the internal hd's boot sector... i yiy yiy.
[03:38] <noobguy> hylian... ijust got an error trying to install netbeans. error msg:  ... Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/libasm3-java_3.2-3ubuntu1_all.deb   E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[03:38] <hylian> Nick_Meister, so what error does it give you? i have had to go as far as actually changing a log file...
[03:38] <SPEL3O> UbuntuNoob, the background of what?
[03:39] <UbuntuNoob> my desktop background (wallpaper)
[03:39] <Nick_Meister> hylian, trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/OGRE/Plugin_OctreeSceneManager.so', which is also in package libogremain-1.6.4 0:1.6.4.dfsg1-1
[03:39] <SPEL3O> You can do that in Gnome settings
[03:39] <hylian> noobguy, let me see what i can find out about on that error.
[03:39] <laptop_user> hylian, http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man8/ledd.8.html potential solution for leds... opinion?
[03:39] <Logan_> anon__: /join #i2p
[03:40] <noobguy> thats the error giving me quite a headache from the beginning
[03:40] <UbuntuNoob> what i want to do is learn how to change the wallpaper at a given time, like this: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=83443
[03:40] <UbuntuNoob> but i want to use my own pictures and make my own commands/script
[03:41] <HyperShock> UbuntuNoob, are you sayhing you want to make your own desktop background slideshow?
[03:41] <UbuntuNoob> HyperShock: basically. the thing i linked changes the wallpaper based on the time of day, which is essentially a very slow slideshow
[03:42] <UbuntuNoob> hold that thought, i need to reboot
[03:42] <SPEL3O> UbuntuNoob, well that sounds feasable, but you need to find where Gnome stores the image for your backround, and make a script that swaps out the images periodically
[03:42] <SPEL3O> Personally, I do not know
[03:43] <GatunoRox> hylian: not quite. the internal's good
[03:43] <Nick_Meister> hylian, so any luck?
[03:43] <hylian> Nick_Meister, "into /var/lib/dpkg/info and deleting everything that had that name and you may also have to go into /var/cache/apt/archives and do the same thing"
[03:43] <GatunoRox> It's just unable to load grub
[03:43] <UbuntuNoob> okay im back
[03:44] <hylian> Nick_Meister, oops, somehow i only copied part of that, did you getb the gist?
[03:44] <noobguy> hylian can i send you full error log ??
[03:44] <GatunoRox> like it's stuck
[03:44] <GatunoRox> It won't boot Grub
[03:44] <Nick_Meister> hylian, yah it worked like a charm thanks
[03:45] <hylian> noobguy, your problem somehow is still broken packages, i would fire up synaptic, and have it do a rfepair on broken packages and see what it gives youy for idea/errors.
[03:45] <GatunoRox> but was able to boot syslinux
[03:45] <UbuntuNoob> so yeah i guess my question would be how do i go about making a wallpaper slideshow via some sort of script
[03:45] <GatunoRox> that's why I asked if tere was a way to use syslinux as the bootloader
[03:45] <KNUBBIG> Just don't use netbeans :p The code it produces is ... well just terribly ugly
[03:46] <hylian> laptop_user, sorry man, beetween my crazyness here and my roommate mumbling something incoherently, i lost you in the process :(
[03:46] <GatunoRox> syslinux was able to acces my whole drive, grub looks like it can't
[03:46] <laptop_user> hylian, http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man8/ledd.8.html potential solution for leds... opinion?
[03:46] <hylian> noobguy, sorry, i somehow lost your request, i yiy yiy.
[03:46] <laptop_user> no worries
[03:46] <noobguy> i can send it
[03:47] <noobguy> again
[03:47] <ggg3> To solve all manner of grub problems in dual booting windows, I've used "Smart Boot Manager" available as an image on UNetbootin, home page http://btmgr.sourceforge.net/about.html - I think it's awesome.
[03:48] <luxurymode> I'm having trouble using chown. Terminal keeps telling me I'm missing an operand after the directory I'm targeting...
[03:48] <ggg3> luxury: try using chpwn instead :-D
[03:48] <KNUBBIG> luxurymode what exactly did you type in?
[03:49] <luxurymode> ggg3: lol
[03:49] <ggg3>  chown username file file file
[03:49] <KNUBBIG> it's chown username:group file
[03:49] <luxurymode> I've got a folder called "src" in my home directory and i just wanna make sure its writable by my primary acct
[03:49] <luxurymode> KNUBBIG: didnt realize i need usernam
[03:50] <luxurymode> lemme try again
[03:50] <edbian> luxurymode: chmod -R you /home/you/src
[03:51] <raido> edbian: chown not chmod
[03:51] <edbian> raido: right-o
[03:51] <codex84> lol
[03:51] <codex84> chowdown ll
[03:51] <luxurymode> sudo chown levi /home/levi seems to have worked
[03:51] <codex84> lol
[03:51] <luxurymode> wait whoops, needed /src
[03:51] <luxurymode> lemme see
[03:51] <hylian> laptop_user, well that article seems to point to possible solutions, but heck if i know what they are. maybe the led states are being read wrong?
[03:52] <luxurymode> when i try home/levi/src it says no such file or dir
[03:53] <KNUBBIG> cd ~/src ?
[03:53] <noobguy> hylian any idea?
[03:53] <edbian> hylian: link please   (your keyboard right?)
[03:53] <hylian> noobguy, sorry man. ok from what i pieced together, it looks like you recieved a package that is damaged. you may have to go to /var/cache/apt/archives and remove the package, as well as removing it from /var/lib/dpkg/info, however, if this is somehow being caused by a bad net connection, like a damaged wire, it may happen all over again.
[03:54] <rhizmoe> luxurymode: primary acct? more than one?
[03:54] <edbian> laptop_user: can you show me the link to the article?
[03:54] <luxurymode> rhizmoe: no
[03:54] <laptop_user> hylian: i think i need to add a line that will say something along the lines of "if boot audio muted then write led state red" i know thats not the true command but in translation...
[03:54] <rhizmoe> so, your home dir has a subdirectory named "src?" what KNUBBIG said.
[03:54] <edbian> laptop_user: Can you show me the link to the how to you're following?
[03:55] <hylian> laptop_user, yes i think so. i hope your a better scripter than i.
[03:55] <laptop_user> edbian, http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man8/ledd.8.html potential solution for leds... opinion?
[03:55]  * hylian 's head is spinning.
[03:55] <laptop_user> hylian, in basic lol yeah
[03:55] <edbian> laptop_user: reading :)
[03:55]  * KNUBBIG 's, too, 5 am here.
[03:56] <luxurymode> ultimately, i just wanna install a program that i have the source for
[03:56] <hylian> GatunoRox, have you had any luck, i was inendated with requests.. i think i lost you in translation.
[03:56] <noobguy> Ok I'll try that one myself hylian :) Thanks a lot for this grand help hylian
[03:56] <hylian> laptop_user, just remember to chmod a+x the file  you make. sucks when your script wont run because you don't "own" it.
[03:57] <edbian> laptop_user: I doubt that this program is going to let you affect anything other than numlock capslock and scrolllock
[03:57] <KINGOFSWORDS> if i leave laptop on over nite will the screen turn itsself off?
[03:57] <laptop_user> edbian, also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting
[03:57] <hylian> noobguy, i hope it helps, as for being grand, my kind of computer repair is less than pretty, usually functional, but not so pretty.
[03:57] <GatunoRox> hylian: nah... same regular problems...
[03:57] <laptop_user> hylian, also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting
[03:57] <luxurymode> rhizmoe: im confused. i need some hand holding. how do i chown /src?
[03:57] <laptop_user> hylian, no doubt lol
[03:58] <GatunoRox> hylian: trying to find a way to boot without grub
[03:58] <bobo_> hi, when I insert an usb stick, I don't get the block device /dev/sda. what do I have to add on my own kernelconfig?
[03:58] <KNUBBIG> luxurymode sudo chown -R levy:levy ~/src
[03:58] <hylian> edbian, thanks man. I have been a little swamped. edbian is the best peeps, he's got the brains.
[03:58] <edbian> hahaha
[03:58] <edbian> thanks
[03:58] <danielcg25> What do I type in the terminal to un-mount a partition?
[03:58] <luxurymode> KNUBBIG: that worked
[03:58] <luxurymode> thanks
[03:59] <KNUBBIG> np :)
[03:59] <GatunoRox> hylian: Grub isn't reacting well with my BIOS lol
[03:59] <edbian> danielcg25: sudo umount /partition
[03:59] <apn> danielcg25, sudo umount /whereverismounted
[03:59] <danielcg25> Thanks
[03:59] <KNUBBIG> ok I'm going to bed, thanks for your help, I'll try the alternate install cd tomorrow, g'nite all
[03:59] <edbian> laptop_user: This is the guide you want IMO https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting
[03:59] <danielcg25> Sudo: unmount: command not found
[04:00] <hylian> GatunoRox, my way of doing it was to use a program called gag. then i set up one of the boot time options to the usb hdd. however, gag adds a cutesy menu system in the begiining that resembles win 98 on roids. maybe boot commander is more your style. i use gag because i know gag in and out.
[04:00] <edbian> danielcg25: There is no 'n'  it's umount not unmount
[04:00] <danielcg25> Oh
[04:01] <edbian> laptop_user: Try and follow that and see if you get stuck.  Come back here with specific questions
[04:01] <danielcg25> Thanks! It's working now
[04:01] <hylian> GatunoRox, well, i may atleast be able to get grub behaving itself for the internal hdd. if you remove the usb drive, then you should be able to boot? (then use update grub?)
[04:01] <edbian> danielcg25: no problem
[04:01] <laptop_user> edbian, also found http://linux.aldeby.org/howto-ubuntu-linux-on-hp-pavilion-dv2000-dv6000-dv9000-series-laptops.html/#index
[04:01] <laptop_user> edbian, wish i woulda found WAAAYYY earlier lol
[04:02] <laptop_user> edbian, how to use xev?
[04:02] <edbian> laptop_user: I like the first howto better.
[04:02] <cbilljones> Is there a channel for 11.04 discussion?
[04:02]  * hylian vows to try and answer only one question at a time, because he thought his head was gonna explode.
[04:02] <rumpe1> cbilljones, #ubuntu+1
[04:02] <cbilljones> rumpej thanks
[04:03] <cbilljones> rumpel ^^
[04:03] <edbian> laptop_user: xev  in a terminal.    It also tracks the mouse in the white window
[04:03] <codex84> how u upgrade to 11 bet?
[04:03] <edbian> hylian: I know the feeling hahaha
[04:03] <laptop_user> edbian; the troubleshooting? thats a child howto from the second link. with xev, do i press enter first or just xev then the button?
[04:04] <edbian> laptop_user: you type xev and press enter.  Now it is 'running' and it records all your mouse  / keyboard activity.  then you press ctrl + C to stop it.  It is used to get the numerical values of strange keys and buttons.
[04:04] <hylian> well, all this research shaprens my ubuntu-fu. *ugh*
[04:04] <codex84> how you upgrade to 11.beta?
[04:04] <cheshire_fox> Hey, is there a CLI based wireless card config tool installed by default on ubuntu?
[04:04] <HyperShock> wow "xev" rocks!
[04:05] <laptop_user> edbian, thanks again
[04:05] <edbian> laptop_user: you might have to click in the white box before some keys get registered
[04:05] <edbian> cheshire_fox: THere are a number of tools.  What exactly are you trying to do?
[04:05] <edbian> xev is cool
[04:06] <hylian> cheshire_fox, not that i know of
[04:06] <hylian> codex84
[04:06] <hylian> oops
[04:06] <codex84> lol
[04:07] <hylian> codex84, this is a howto on that very subject: http://zeeis.me/upgrade-to-ubuntu-11-04/
[04:07] <codex84> try to upgrade to 11.beta on the update manager but is not there
[04:07] <cheshire_fox> edbian: I was given a HP laptop that vista died on.  Decided to install Ubuntu on it.  Turns out the nvidia chip is fried (it's to late to do a claim), so I'm going to use it as a server.
[04:07] <luxurymode> can someone tell me the easiest way to install from source? i've downloaded a chat client (smack) and wanna install...
[04:07] <joelixny> Is there something similar to \n (new line) but for backspace?
[04:08] <GatunoRox> I'm going nuts with this lol xD
[04:08] <edbian> cheshire_fox: sudo iwlist scan    should show you wireless networks.  If it does you're in good shape and you can configure it in /etc/network/interfaces.  If it does not list networks you have to get the card to work first (which might be hard)
[04:08] <edbian> codex84: I don't think you can upgrade to the beta from a normal release
[04:08] <ayecee> joelixny: \b, i believe
[04:08] <GatunoRox> almost giving up with the full installation Idea
[04:08] <cheshire_fox> edbian: card works, I'm sure of it
[04:08] <edbian> joelixny: No
[04:08] <hylian> GatunoRox, anything else i can help wreck? sorry man. i can try and help...
[04:09] <raido> cheshire_fox: iwconfig
[04:09] <edbian> ayecee: What would that do?  Delete the character before it when the file is read?
[04:09] <Danielcg25> Well, I formatted the partition using DiskUtility in Ubuntu, and Windows installer says it's un-allocated space.
[04:09] <edbian> cheshire_fox: It works in linux?
[04:09] <ayecee> edbian: yes
[04:09] <edbian> neat!
[04:09] <cheshire_fox> edbian:yup, out of the box
[04:09] <edbian> joelixny: nevermind!
[04:09] <GatunoRox> hylian: you're the best support I've had this week xD, no complains
[04:09] <edbian> cheshire_fox: then is iwconfig and sudo iwlist scan, and sudo ifup wlan0  and a number of others :)
[04:10] <hylian> GatunoRox, if it helps any, simply mepis comes with firfox and most of what ubuntu offers, and has flahs plugin and java pre installed.
[04:10] <edbian> cheshire_fox: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo
[04:10] <edbian> hylian: blasphemy!
[04:10]  * hylian lowers his head in shame :P
[04:10] <edbian> j/k j/k
[04:10] <GatunoRox> mepis?
[04:10] <joelixny> \b doesn't work :\
[04:10] <edbian> GatunoRox: It's a different linux distro
[04:10] <cheshire_fox> while I'm here, does anyone know of a way to get X to run soly on the processor.
[04:10] <GatunoRox> *distro noob here lol*
[04:10] <edbian> joelixny: Are you writing it to a file?
[04:11] <joelixny> yes
[04:11] <joelixny> a php script
[04:11] <hylian> GatunoRox, yeah, it's what i use for my clients sticks because he needs flash player to work "outta da box" (i'm form wisconsin)
[04:11] <edbian> cheshire_fox: The graphics card has a monitor out.  If the motherboard has a monitor out then you can plug that in but I'm guessing that since this is a laptop there is no onboard video.  That is, you HAVE to use the graphics card in there
[04:12] <laptop_user> edbian; http://pastebin.com/p3115PJa line 1 is mute 11 is unmute no other buttons touched
[04:12] <edbian> cheshire_fox: Just run it headless.  You can install graphical applications and run them remotely on some other Ubuntu computer
[04:12] <GatunoRox> hylian: no use telling me where ya from xD I wouldn't suspect as I'm not a native speaker
[04:12] <edbian> laptop_user: This isn't a question :)
[04:12] <hylian> GatunoRox, in his case he needs a system that loses all history, i think he does some shady things whilst running that usb key.
[04:13] <laptop_user> edbian, so i need to tell the computer that if muted to send command 1-10. how?
[04:13] <GatunoRox> hylian: you never know xD
[04:13] <edbian> laptop_user: I don't know.  Where are you in the how-to ?
[04:13] <laptop_user> edbian, i mean if muted upon boot
[04:13] <edbian> laptop_user: I've never done this before either :)
[04:13] <hylian> GatunoRox, yeah, so once simply mepis is powered down, all naughty-ness dissapears, atleast on his end.
[04:13] <GatunoRox> hide his p0rn from his wife maybe?
[04:13] <laptop_user> edbian, glad to help with the learning curve ;)
[04:13] <cheshire_fox> edbian: well, for a while I had a desktop.  That was immediatly after uninstalling the nouveau driver.  I had a feeling it was running on the processor. But I'm not sure.    I just want a graphical interface just to make sure certain website interfaces this server will be producing actually work
[04:14]  * hylian nods
[04:14] <edbian> laptop_user: I don't see a 10 here
[04:14] <cheshire_fox> hylian: I read mepis as 'me ****' :o
[04:14] <hylian> cheshire_fox, :)
[04:15] <hylian> reminds me of how the germans feal about mr. pibb.
[04:15] <edbian> cheshire_fox: Some hardware has to run the graphics.  Either it's on the motherboard or it's a graphics card.  Each bit of hardware will have a VGA / DVI out at least.  Since this is a laptop and it has a graphics card I'm betting there is no onboard video.  This means you MUST use the graphics card.  Unless you x-forward over ssh.  I do it all the time.
[04:15] <laptop_user> edbian, lines 1-10 is all mute (one single press of button), 11-20 is all unmute (one single press of button)
[04:16] <GatunoRox> hylian: what's the newest release?
[04:16] <cheshire_fox> edbian: then explain to me how I was able to have a graphical interface
[04:16] <edbian> laptop_user: Let me read your guide.  Maybe we can figure out how to toggle the light without changing the muted-ness
[04:16] <edbian> cheshire_fox: The card was not fried?
[04:17] <edbian> cheshire_fox: You can run the graphics all 'on the CPU' what you're really doing is using onboard video (on the motherboard).
[04:17] <hylian> GatunoRox, mepis is at 8, but "simply mepis" is at 11. i use simply because it comes with the software my client needs.
[04:17] <UbuntuNoob> can i make an if then script involving a period of time (i want a certain background to appear during certain times)
[04:17] <cheshire_fox> edbian: it has to be.  Even with the propritary drivers installed all I would get when x started using it is black and white lines and a weird kernel panic
[04:18] <laptop_user> edbian, which guide? the one on linux.aldeby.org?
[04:18] <edbian> cheshire_fox: That could be caused by the graphics card being bad or the driver being wrong.  (sounds like a bad card though if you didn't even get cli)
[04:18] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, i think i get what your trying to do, but i don't think it would be a if then anymore... just bash scripting it?
[04:18] <edbian> laptop_user: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting
[04:18] <edbian> laptop_user: But I am swamped right now ;P
[04:19] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: i have no clue what im doing to be honest lol how would i do it that way?
[04:19] <laptop_user> edbian; no worries.... we will pick up tomorrow. i have a test in the a.m.
[04:19] <hylian> UbuntuNoob, sorry man, my bash scripting skills are just a hair above the noobish. i could probably look it up, but i don't know of the top of my head.
[04:19] <edbian> laptop_user: alright.  Good night.
[04:20] <edbian> cheshire_fox: Maybe you can explain to me in greater deal what is going on with this laptop.
[04:20] <UbuntuNoob> hylian: ill look it up no worries
[04:20] <cheshire_fox> edbian: actually, after removing nouveau, x probably (by default) loaded vesa, right?  In that case the graphics card isn't completely fried (meaning I can use it unaccelerated).
[04:20] <FloatingGoat> OH UNITY, MY HEART YEARNS FOR THEE!!!
[04:20] <cheshire_fox> edbian: where should I begin?
[04:20] <MK`> Is CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ enabled in the default kernel compile with Ubuntu?
[04:21] <edbian> cheshire_fox: If you got graphics running on the card at all (accelerated or not) then the card is fine and we just have to find the right driver. (or just use Ubuntu without accelerated graphics.
[04:21] <ejv> UbuntuNoob: i scripted it for you, cuz you're special :)
[04:21] <hiexpo> hola edbian
[04:21] <edbian> cheshire_fox: What do you want to do?  What state is the laptop in right now?  Can you turn it on and log in.
[04:21] <edbian> hiexpo: Hi :)
[04:21] <cheshire_fox> edbian: I can log in (its actually sitting under the one I'm on right now, which is a netbook)
[04:22] <sevith> Does the 2.6.38 kernel have support for Intel core i5 vpro?
[04:22] <edbian> cheshire_fox: graphical login or cli?
[04:22] <cheshire_fox> edbian: I was orginally hoping to make it my primary machine, as playing minecraft on a netbook is painful, like running vista on 384 megs of ram.
[04:22] <cheshire_fox> edbian: cli
[04:22] <edbian> cheshire_fox: And you've seen graphics running on this machine before?
[04:22] <cheshire_fox> yes.
[04:22] <edbian> cheshire_fox: So the card is not physically ruined.
[04:22] <UbuntuNoob> ejv: thanks? i have no clue how to even start this but my whole goal was to learn along the way as to what im doing
[04:22] <hylian> MK`, yes.
[04:23] <ejv> UbuntuNoob: try this: http://dpaste.com/531497/
[04:23] <edbian> cheshire_fox: First thing first.  log in and run sudo lsmod | grep n
[04:23] <tony__> fuck ass
[04:23] <cheshire_fox> edbian: give me a second
[04:23] <edbian> cheshire_fox: That will list all the modules currently running on the system that have an 'n' in the name
[04:23] <ejv> UbuntuNoob: if you use Vixie-Cron to call this script every 5 or 10 minutes, you'll be good to go ;)
[04:23] <cheshire_fox> edbian: I have limited deskspace
[04:23] <IdleOne> !language | tony__
[04:23] <hiexpo> edbian, just made a fix to the yahoo pop3 block  :)
[04:23] <sevith> Does the 2.6.38 kernel have support for Intel core i5 vpro?
[04:23] <hylian> tony__, come on man, this is a family friendly chat room... tone it down will ya?
[04:23] <edbian> cheshire_fox: You can just tell me what they are.  Do NOT copy / paste them all in to the channel
[04:23] <edbian> hiexpo: What did you fix?
[04:23] <tony__> yeah
[04:23] <cheshire_fox> edbian: that would be impossible, as I am currently on another machine :D
[04:24] <hylian> MK`, CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ is enabled by default
[04:24] <edbian> cheshire_fox: oh good
[04:24] <MK`> Ok thank you hylian
[04:24] <tony__> yes
[04:24] <tony__> hi
[04:24] <hylian> tony__, thanks man.
[04:24] <Wolf> hi
[04:24] <codex84> who got the 11
[04:24] <codex84> beta?
[04:24] <edbian> cheshire_fox: btw,  sudo is not needed for that last command
[04:24] <hiexpo> edbian, made it so you can retrieve email from yahoo account with evolution , or Thunderbird
[04:25] <ejv> UbuntuNoob: there's nothing wrong with learning by reading ;)
[04:25] <edbian> hiexpo: awesome! :)
[04:25] <IdleOne> !11.04 | codex84
[04:25]  * cheshire_fox thinks there should be a magic program made so she can copy something on one machine and paste it to any machine of her choice >:D
[04:25] <GatunoRox> ok... let's call it a day
[04:25] <GatunoRox> My soul's crushed
[04:25] <edbian> cheshire_fox: That would be neat :)
[04:25]  * cheshire_fox would totally start pasting the word 'penis' to the pope's computer
[04:25] <GatunoRox> i really need to sleep
[04:25] <hylian> GatunoRox, hope you have better luck tommorrow. bye
[04:26] <ejv> all this time i thought cheshire was a guy, what is wrong with me...
[04:26]  * ejv facepalms
[04:26] <mickster04> cheshire_fox: you know of scp right :p
[04:26]  * edbian is sure the pope has an AWESOME computer.  Probably with it's own hat.
[04:26] <hiexpo> gonna post a tut by tomorrow somewhere notsure where i am gonna post it yet   i know not ubuntu forums  lol
[04:26] <edbian> cheshire_fox: pastebinit  (the package)
[04:26] <hylian> hiexpo, you should ubuntu launchpad it man.
[04:26] <GatunoRox> hylian: Thanks for the support, if I make it work, I'll try and report it. G' night fellas o/
[04:27] <hylian> GatunoRox, cool beans dude.
[04:27] <edbian> cheshire_fox: It's taking you a long time to run one command and read what it says.  Is there a lot of output?
[04:27] <cheshire_fox> thats useful it I want to post something to pastebin.
[04:27] <ejv> UbuntuNoob: verdict? :p
[04:27] <cheshire_fox> Also, no, I'm way to add
[04:27] <edbian> cheshire_fox: If it was on pastebin I could read it..
[04:27] <UbuntuNoob> ejv: alright i see what it does, but my goal was to have somewhere around 4 pictures that would change depending on the time of day (a light one for morning, bright one for noon, sarker of afternoon, and dark for evening)
[04:27] <UbuntuNoob> fjv: and i also have no clue what any of it says haha
[04:27] <cheshire_fox> and yes, there is a lot of output
[04:28] <sadsa> hello guys, i cannot find anywhere that has mod_security for apache for hardy 8.04 ubuntu? someone could help me out?
[04:28] <hiexpo> hylian, no way man i got kicked out last year for posting a fix for youtube-dl  in the forums and i am still not allowed  in there and the sad thing is they told me youtube-dl was illegal   > but it is in the repos   lol
[04:28] <cheshire_fox> edbian: if I could configure the wireless card to connect to my network first, I could paste it to pastebin :D
[04:28] <edbian> cheshire_fox: I tried to filter some with the grep perhaps I didn't filter enough
[04:28] <ejv> UbuntuNoob: you could cron 4 scripts, one for each
[04:28] <sevith> Somone please? my current kernel config is defined as pentium-pro but im using an i5? is this right? Is there no support? Im confused.
[04:28] <edbian> cheshire_fox: good point
[04:28] <ejv> UbuntuNoob: and have 4 folders for each
[04:28] <hylian> well peeps, my brain is a liquified mush-sickle. See you all tommorrow.
[04:28] <edbian> hylian: good night!
[04:28] <edbian> darn
[04:28] <green__> anyone have a clue as too why compiz is twitchy now with 8.4 when it wasn't before, I tried to install 9.2 but that was a no run
[04:28] <cheshire_fox> ejv:  It's probably cause you're use to talking to guys all the time
[04:29] <sadsa> Hello is there a way to install mod_security on ubuntu 8.04 ??
[04:29] <UbuntuNoob> ejv: the easiest option here is overwrite the xml file i have downloaded with a prearranged set of pictures, and set the filepaths to the pictures i want, but theres too many timeslots
[04:29] <cheshire_fox> ejv: It's not exactly like common for there to be a linux chick on here.
[04:29] <ejv> cheshire_fox: yea i mean 've seen you chat before and didn't catch it heheh
[04:29]  * ejv bows
[04:29] <edbian> cheshire_fox: I want to see the output of that command.
[04:30] <cheshire_fox> there is a lot edbian
[04:30] <ejv> UbuntuNoob: good luck ;)
[04:30] <edbian> cheshire_fox: ok stop
[04:30] <cheshire_fox> I'm trying to see what is useful and what isn't
[04:30] <Adom> i have a default install of ubuntu desktop 10.10 on a machine and it doesnt recognize my ipod upon usb connection, is there anything speical i need to install for ubuntu to recognize an ipod? some kind of ipod libraries?
[04:30] <cheshire_fox> before I even type anything
[04:30] <edbian> cheshire_fox: Do this:  sudo lsmod | grep nouveau    (think I spelled it right)
[04:30] <cheshire_fox> edbian: I uninstalled it, so it shouldn't be running.
[04:30] <cheshire_fox> nope
[04:30] <edbian> cheshire_fox: sudo lsmod | grep vesa
[04:31] <edbian> cheshire_fox: vesa?
[04:31] <cheshire_fox> nope on vesa as well
[04:31] <edbian> cheshire_fox: Well what the heck is it?  sudo lsmod | grep nvidia
[04:31] <cheshire_fox> thats it
[04:32] <UbuntuNoob> ejv: what i had planned to do was just have some sort of if then where the if would be a certain period of time and the then would be the picture i wanted 4 separate times
[04:32] <sevith> :(
[04:32] <edbian> cheshire_fox: that's the proprietary one.  I bet if you install noueavou it will work again
[04:32] <edbian> cheshire_fox: What do you say?
[04:32] <sevith> Anyone Anyone :(...
[04:32] <cheshire_fox> edbian: orginally thats what was installed
[04:32] <edbian> cheshire_fox: And that worked or... ?
[04:33] <cheshire_fox> I got kernel panics and messed up screen stuff
[04:33] <green__> #compiz
[04:33] <edbian> cheshire_fox: mhmmm  but the nvidia driver doesn't work at all...
[04:33] <edbian> cheshire_fox: Lemme research a bit
[04:34] <cheshire_fox> edbian: sure, go ahead.
[04:34] <edbian> cheshire_fox: This is 10.10 ?
[04:34] <cheshire_fox> edbian: yup, amd64 version
[04:34] <edbian> cheshire_fox: aptitude show nvidia-current
[04:34] <edbian> is that installed?
[04:36] <cheshire_fox> hold on, trying to recall how to scroll up in cli *is having a hard time remembering things tonight*
[04:36] <edbian> cheshire_fox: There are many nvidia graphics cards.  http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=nvidia&searchon=names&suite=maverick&section=all
[04:36] <edbian> cheshire_fox: shift + pageup
[04:36] <cheshire_fox> thats what I thought it was
[04:36] <cheshire_fox> but its only giving me a ~
[04:37] <cheshire_fox> which is weird
[04:37] <uofm49426> is there a why to share one file with a nother using 2 different flavors of ubuntu
[04:37] <cheshire_fox> fixed
[04:37] <cheshire_fox> the pageup thing
[04:37] <edbian> cheshire_fox: haha  good
[04:37] <cheshire_fox> edbian: its installed
[04:37] <edbian> uofm49426: Yes.  nfs or samba
[04:37] <edbian> cheshire_fox: mmm
[04:38] <edbian> cheshire_fox: My advice to you:  go through this list and install each package one at a time and see if the system boots on any of them.  http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=nvidia&searchon=names&suite=maverick&section=all
[04:39] <edbian> cheshire_fox: I have to go! :(
[04:39] <uofm49426> i want to set up 2 files that act like network drives were i can store music and stuff
[04:39] <cheshire_fox> edbian: aww
