[19:45] <zamba> wehere can i find i8kutils?
[19:45] <zamba> where*
[19:45] <chuckmoney> Twerk^: it is but on the advanced level of desktop effects it has some minor slowdown at times.  A GMA945 is the least I would ever recommend for Compiz.  A GMA945 is roughly the same as a GeForce 6050 Go in terms of what it can actually do.  I would've got at least a GMA950 if one was available, but an EEE is a fairly standardized design and they don't offer minor upgrades like that.
[19:45] <zamba> it's gone in intrepid, as far as i can see?
[19:46] <Zoem> Where can I find the ip numbers of a free and opensource dns server?
[19:46] <devmon> Does anyone have experience with ldap home directories?
[19:46] <jim_p> what is the name of the package that contains the intel 3945 wireless module? i have been looking it all afternoon!
[19:46] <mr_polite> :;sigh::
[19:47] <Chlorate> I can't connect to my wireless router. Any help? I have an Atheros 424x wireless card on my laptop. I'm on intrepid
[19:47] <balle_> hey can i use something like deamon tools under wine to play games in .exe format?
[19:47] <Pe1o> you must install the game using wine and you will be able to play the .exe using wine ,  no need for deamon tools
[19:47] <chuckmoney> jim_p: not sure, maybe it's supported by madwifi.  if not madwifi, you could try linux-modules-restricted or kernel-modules-restricted, whichever it is.
[19:47]  * Pe1o might have missunderstood but what the heck
[19:47] <jim_p> chuckmoney: let me look
[19:47] <qpdb> is there a tool to remove special chars from filenames in a directory?
[19:48] <HomesickA> Hi everyone - I get horizontal lines when viewing video - noticed the wsame with my friend who is also running hardy. Might be the nvidia drivers...not sure though
[19:48] <Pe1o> HomesickA, what player ?
[19:48] <HomesickA> All - VLC and totem
[19:48] <Pe1o> HomesickA,  open synaptic , and install all the gstreamer0,10 files , see if it gets better
[19:48] <chuckmoney> jim_p: if it's neither of those, I have no clue.  I have one system with an atheros card and another with a ralink and my desktop links through a wired router, so I can't help you if it's not one of those.  you could always use the windows driver via ndiswrapper, but beyond that, I'm all out.
[19:49] <javajeff> chuckmoney: grsync works fine.  I will just use it.  Thanks for your help though.
[19:49] <HomesickA> Pe1o : thank you i will try that
[19:49] <HomesickA> what do u guys think of Intrepid?
[19:49] <Korfox> t ein freak?
[19:49] <Korfox> sry - autofocus O.o
[19:50] <chuckmoney> javajeff: no problem.  feel free to ask anything else.  as my grandpa once told me, if nobody ever asked any questions we would still be painting cave walls.
[19:50] <jarco> does anyone knows a tool on ubuntu where i can make a video about my desktop and os? I mean i want to show my modified ubuntu to my firends
[19:50] <jim_p> chuckmoney: i am sure i found it a week ago! and by myself. it was somewhere in synaptic :|
[19:50] <Pe1o> HomesickA, bit disapointing,  several broken things that I would not have expected to be broken
[19:50] <jim_p> jarco: krecordmydesktop in istanbul
[19:50] <jim_p> *or
[19:50] <justauser> qpdb, a bash script?
[19:50] <bobdoss2> salut tout le monde
[19:50] <javajeff> chuckmoney:  Thanks!  I returned to linux after years away from it, so I am trying to relearn stuff.
[19:51] <jim_p> bobdoss2: salut a toi
[19:51] <HomesickA> Pe1o : I was thinking of moving to Intrepid...hmmm what u say is leaving me with some doubt. Thought these things are rigorously tested?
[19:51] <jarco> ok jim_p
[19:51] <jgonick> Pe1o: I still use Hardy but was thinking about upgrading.. would you or would you wait a little while?
[19:51] <chuckmoney> jarco: he's right, but use intanbul if you have gnome or krecorddesktop if you have KDE.  desktop recorders produce a lot of overhead when running and you don't want to have to load extra libs (for KDE or GNOME) if you don't have to while running them.
[19:52] <jarco> ok chuckmoney
[19:52] <Pe1o> HomesickA, so far i've found a bug with the murrine engine which makes it impossible for me to use certain themes,  and the gspca driver for webcam won'T compile anymore,  and isn'T included in the kernel either
[19:53] <zamba> i need a tool for controlling my fan in ubunbt
[19:53] <DEA7H> i want to run a command in the background, what modifiers/extra arguements do i need to do so?
[19:53] <balle_> Pelo, well if i cant install the game using the cd? but only have deamon tools
[19:53] <deadkode> DEA7H: : &
[19:53] <Pe1o> jgonick, it's not unusable,  just a couple of things that were surprisingly broken,  which kind of annoyed me,  i'm still running it
[19:53] <HomesickA> I don't know what u are talking about lol...but Im sure you can probably post that as a bug and they fix it? Thats what usually happens right?
[19:53] <DEA7H> deadkode: on the end?
[19:53] <deadkode> DEA7H: just append & on the end, like ./programname&
[19:53] <dietre> DEA7H, maybe also the "nohup" wrapper
[19:53] <Jordan_U> Changing the screen brightness via the brightness applet does nothing
[19:54] <deadkode> just like the goggles
[19:54] <Chlorate> I can't connect with my atheros 242x wireless card. It shows the drivers are there, but it won't detect anything. I'm on intrepid
[19:54] <Pe1o> HomesickA, they have both been posted , i'm just not 1337 enough to check that out first,  I just try and try and eventualy I run accross the bug report
[19:54] <HomesickA> lol thanks though Pe1o :)
[19:55] <chris1> anyone know if pine has been renamed? I cant install it over apt-get

[19:56] <jelmer> chris1: pine is non-free, afaik
[19:56] <chris1> jelmer: hi
[19:56] <Chlorate> n8tuser, that I didn't check. I just looked in admin -> drivers and it shows it is activated. I checked iwconfig and says no wireless extensions.
[19:56] <Pe1o> lappy,  terminal , lspci , or  alt_f2  gnome-device-manager
[19:56] <chris1> non-free
[19:56] <chris1> wack

[19:56] <esperegu> anyone knows how to resize an encrypted lvm partition?
[19:57] <chris1> is there a program like webmin i can install on a unbuntu box over apt-get?
[19:57] <Pe1o> esperegu, try asking in #lvm
[19:57] <jim_p> esperegu: i dont think gparted can handle its encryption
[19:57] <rockstar92> ive seen all the wireless drivers that yall are talking about on the acer website look there
[19:57] <Pe1o> chris1, tell me what webmin does and I'll see if I know one
[19:57] <jim_p> chris1: what is webmin?
[19:57] <chris1> its a gui web based controll pannel
[19:57] <n8tuser> Chlorate-> sudo lsmod |grep 242

[19:58] <rebel_kid> this is interesting, when i click a workspace instead of switching to it, i select it. how do i get out of this and switch my work spaces ?
[19:58] <bakarat> errr, is there an option for disk encryption if i have the "regular" install cd?
[19:58] <Pe1o> chris1,  goto menu < system > admin > synaptic ,  and use the search engine for keywords
[19:58] <scunizi> chris1: Pelo  webmin can be installed but not via apt.. sets up apache and samba and ftp etc.
[19:58] <Slart> !webmin

[19:58] <uman3> Hi, I just updated to ubuntu 8.10 using the alternate install cd. the problem is now all my network settings are messed up. for some reason in the network configuration utility there was only one connection and it was called ifdown (eth1) its like all my 3 connections were called ifdown eth1 and instead of using dhcp it gives me a <IP_ADDRESS> ip. i tried to edit the settings but it says "Updating connection failed: nm-ifupdown-connection.c.82 - connection upda
[19:58] <esperegu> Pe1o: thx
[19:59] <Pe1o> bakarat, you can type f6 from the cd boot menu and add extra options to the boot line if that's what you mean
[19:59] <n8tuser> Chlorate-> sudo lsmod |grep 242   what driver does it shows ..i assume your driver has a 242 name on it
[19:59] <jim_p> Slart: thank you!

[20:00] <rebel_kid> dietre, how do i get back to switching?
[20:00] <bakarat> Pelo: am i missing something?

[20:00] <HomesickA> ah sweet. Im from the country where Ubuntu was born
[20:00] <Chlorate> n8tuser, I have another set of drivers that detects wireless networks, but won't connect.
[20:01] <dietre> rebel_kid, i do not know enough about that, i deactivated compiz when i realized, that i do not need it ;)
[20:01] <dietre> sorry
[20:01] <bakarat> Pelo: hmm, can i still (with minimal effort) encrypt the entire partition? (/home & /var/log in this case)

[20:03] <kri> hi if i want to list all files in a folder and subfolders with the extension .avi what do i type? (terminal).
[20:03] <bakarat> Pelo: i sort of meant the "normal" encryption that ubuntu uses upon installation (not sure which one it is)
[20:03] <dario__> I have a problem when rebooting or shutting down. When I do this the screen turns black with a blinking cursor and after a few minutes it prints "acpid exiting" and then continues the reboot or shutdown process. What can I do to solve this?
[20:03] <Pelo> bakarat, no idea
[20:03] <Pelo> bakarat,  you mgiht want to have a look in the forum for info on that  www.ubuntuforums.org

[20:04] <bakarat> Twerk^: my current problem is that i'm used to seeing an option to "encrypt" my partition upon installation, however i can not find that option in the 8.10 installation edition (mind you, i did not use the alternative version of the installer)
[20:04] <khaotik> what is the terminal command to change screen resolution on intrepid. i changed my settings to to large and now cant see the desktop on the screen
[20:05] <bimberi> computer_: because it's ubuntustudio-audio-plugins ??

[20:06] <Marsjanin> Pelo: export | grep "DISPLAY" returns:

[20:06] <Marsjanin> declare -x DISPLAY=":0"
[20:06] <Twerk^> bakarat: ya i think you do need to use the alt discd
[20:06] <Pelo> Skiessi,  my opinion is , that if you need to ask that question, you shouldn'T be messing with your grub
[20:06] <Twerk^> alternate install disc rather
[20:06] <dietre> kri, n8tuser: else it gets expanded to the names in the current folder
[20:06] <bakarat> Twerk^: _crap_
[20:06] <Twerk^> i believe thats available with the text mode install
[20:06] <computer_> worked! :)
[20:06] <HomesickA> Jeez i thought I knew a bit of Ubuntu...after seeing you guys chat...i seriously need to learn more
[20:06] <Pelo> Marsjanin, but you do not want the " when you put the line in crontab
[20:07] <Marsjanin> Maybe I have to change that in that list? Is it maybe in some file?
[20:07] <Twerk^> ALTHOUGH i have not installed 8.10 so this is going from memory past
[20:07] <Marsjanin> Pelo: I removed these of cource
[20:07] <Juhaz> khaotik, xrandr if you want to change it on the fly, or remove ~/.gnome2/monitors.xml to reset the settings made by screen resolution capplet
[20:07] <Twerk^> but it should be available in the text mode install
[20:07] <kri> dietre: dont get the right command. :(
[20:07] <Marsjanin> I al;reaady tiried export && geedit
[20:07] <bakarat> Twerk^: gah, i already have the 8.10 & 8.10 server edition, now i need 8.10 alternate.... :D damn my download limits :'(
[20:07] <j2daosh> anyone know what the keyword for ubotu that gives the link to the easy sources page where you can add repos to your sources.lst?
[20:07] <khaotik> well i just need to reset it to its original 600 x 800
[20:08] <Marsjanin> export DISPLAY && gedit
[20:08] <Marsjanin> none works

[20:08] <Jatz> hey, apt is downloading really slowly, how do I change mirrors or something?
[20:08] <Twerk^> bakarat:  you could use the server disc and just install the desktop packages...
[20:08] <Pelo> Marsjanin, export DISPLAY=:0 && gedit
[20:08] <dietre> kri, try: find . -name '*.avi'
[20:08] <bakarat> Twerk^: a) doesn't the server have kernel optimizations? b) that would still require a crapload of downloads? :D
[20:08] <kri> but dietre its a folder with 6 subfolders and i want to list all .avi files
[20:09] <j2daosh> !compiz > j2daosh
[20:09] <Marsjanin> faryshta: Thannks for interesting; cron did not load any X-window program after "a big upgrade" (from 8.04 to 8.10 of course".
[20:09] <Twerk^> bakarat:  yes you would have to download many packages, and you would most likely want a different kernel, but who doesn't anyway :P

[20:10] <kri> actually the thing i want to do is to remove all the .avis
[20:10] <erUSUL> dougb: ~/PDF iirc
[20:10]  * Marsjanin have got only one screen
[20:10] <Jatz> like really, apt has been pulling packages in really slowly since yesterday
[20:10] <Jatz> it's ridiculous
[20:10]  * Marsjanin knows, that's not very much :D
[20:10] <Pelo> Marsjanin, i'm stumped,  there is a #cron channel you might want to ask in
[20:11] <unop> kri,   find folder/ -name '*.avi' -exec rm -v {} \;
[20:11] <dougb> erUSUL: i don't see the folder
[20:11] <dietre> dougb, maybe the location is set in the configuration file, which resides in /etc/
[20:11] <Marsjanin> Thanks again, I'll try to od that
[20:11] <Marsjanin> do^
[20:11] <erUSUL> dougb: well last time i used the cups pdf printer the files ended up there
[20:11] <devmon> Has anyone tried authenticating against ldap and received the error message with the problem "your home directory is listed as: /Users/janitor/' but it does not appear to exist." ?
[20:11] <erUSUL> dougb: i still have the folder and the files
[20:12] <noecksit> hello, i have some problem setting up a ldap client for my comps on campus
[20:12] <YeTr2> to use the DISPLAY variable, your xserver needs to be set to allow incomming tcp connections and you need to authorize other hosts to connect to the X server
[20:12] <kri> unop: yes but its a folder with 6 subfolders and 6 unpacked files (.avi) but i dont want to rm the samples
[20:12] <Marsjanin> Pelo: hmm, ANY collision to the NVIDIA drivers?
[20:12] <Marsjanin> Is that possible?
[20:12] <YeTr2> you can enable connections to your X server via gdmsetup if you are using gdm as your login manager.
[20:12] <balle_> where is the restricted drivers menu at in i ipex?
[20:12] <noecksit> i can do an ldap query using "ldapsearch -x" but unfortunately i cannot chown users and pam login doesn't seem to work
[20:12] <Slike> hi, i'm looking for a plain html version of the man pages. is there any way i can generate/download these?
[20:12] <YeTr2> Marsjanin: ^
[20:12] <Pelo> Marsjanin, not taht I know of, I'M using .177 for my g6800 card and I have two monitors
[20:12] <dietre> kri, in a bash prompt type: find folder -name '*.avi' | while read f; do rm "$f"; done
[20:13] <unop> kri, i'm not sure what you want to delete, the avis?  if so, the find command does it
[20:13] <Pelo> Marsjanin, and it's the same line I 've been using since I had only one monitor with my onboard  intel card, and using dapper 2 years ago
[20:13] <noecksit> can anyone help me debug furhter why this occurs?
[20:13] <dijital1> how do you shutdown X under ubuntu
[20:13] <YeTr2> after you allow tcp connections, you then use xhost as the user using the display to allow connections. `xhost +` will allow all hosts to connect. this can be considered a security risk because they can also see what you are doing.
[20:13] <dijital1> say if I want to change the runlevel where the system only boots to the console
[20:13] <dougb> erUSUL: i found out you have to make the PDF folder manually
[20:13] <Twerk^> dijital1: alt-ctrl-backspace
[20:13] <okidoki1> hi
[20:14] <Gnea> dijital1: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[20:14] <dijital1> and doest start the xserver
[20:14] <Cripps> I just created an iso using mkisofs, and to test it I mounted it using "mount -t iso9660 -o loop file.iso /mnt/pnt/" and then checked out the contents of the mountpoint, unfortunately it seems to have eaten the directory, and everything is in the iso root ... is this a quirk of mount -o loop, or is it that I might have a bad flag with mkisofs?
[20:14] <erUSUL> dougb: sounds like a bug
[20:14] <Rockj> Anyone here had issues using pidgin, that it closes pidgin after doing alt+f4? it doesn't fall into tray?

[20:14] <faryshta> Marsjanin,  can I recommend you install from liveCD? many people have problems with upgrade which are fixed with a instalation from 0
[20:14] <Twerk^> what gnea said.  or sudo killall gdm
[20:14] <Gnea> Twerk^: no, that'll just restart it too
[20:14] <dijital1> I guess I'm wondering how runlevels are handled under ubuntu
[20:14] <dougb> thanks, i'll file it
[20:14] <Marsjanin> YeTr2: I logon via gdm, default in Ubuntu, and I think I can't good understand you.
[20:15] <unop> Twerk^, killall is not suggested, it doesn't clean up the pid/lock files
[20:15] <n8tuser> Cripps-> is that how you created the iso  all files under /  ?
[20:15] <Gnea> dijital1: it used to use sysV, but switched to something else
[20:15] <Twerk^> ah yes my default runlevel is text. my bad
[20:15] <chrisorange2> just buyed ubuntu
[20:15] <erUSUL> dijital1: in debian ubuntu all runlevels are equal by default. also ubuntu switched to upstart from system V init
[20:15] <Gnea> I'd launch firefox right now, but I'm in the middle of upgrading to 8.10
[20:15] <YeTr2> Marsjanin: go to system -> administration -> login window
[20:15] <dijital1> gnea: yeah.. I'm trying to figure out what that something else is
[20:15] <genii> chrisorange2: Too bad, you could have had it for free
[20:15] <YeTr2> Marsjanin: that opens up gdmsetup
[20:15]  * Marsjanin goes there
[20:15] <maxxist_> chrisorance2 what do you mean buyed?  ubuntu is free
[20:15] <pw-toxic> Slart: i think i know the problem
[20:15] <dijital1> there's no /etc/rc.x directories
[20:16] <kri> i did remove it manually, ok question 2 i have a external drive with a fan on it can i controll the fan somehow?
[20:16] <Cripps> n8tuser, no, "it gobbled my directory" ... I had a "notes" dir with documentation under it.
[20:16] <chrisorange2> eh?
[20:16] <Gnea> dijital1: google it - ubuntu runlevel handling
[20:16] <YeTr2> Marsjanin: under security, uncheck 'deny tcp connections to the xserver'
[20:16] <genii> dijital1: Thats becase they are /etc/rcX.d
[20:16] <Twerk^> kri: not likely
[20:16] <pw-toxic> Slart: ubuntu doesnt know the software raid (i dont think i have an onboard raid controller ;) )    so he installed ubuntu on only one part of the raid1  ... so the operating system is unknown
[20:16] <YeTr2> Marsjanin: then restart your desktop.
[20:17] <__mork> hi. just upgraded to 8.10 from 8.04.1 on my hp pavilion dv9585. Problem: multimedia hardware button now sets the sound not by small steps but from 0% to 50% to 100%... any hint? thnks
[20:17] <maxxist_> chrisorange2 you should take it back.  you can download it legally for free.
[20:17] <Twerk^> me thinks chrisorange2 is a troll.
[20:17] <Marsjanin> What about cookies there?
[20:17] <Gnea> __mork: what program is the hardware button calling to change the volume?
[20:18] <Marsjanin> YeTr2: ^
[20:18] <chrisorange2> but i payed because it has office and so on...
[20:18] <YeTr2> Marsjanin: don't worry about it
[20:18] <YeTr2> Marsjanin: i doubt you use NFs
[20:18] <Marsjanin> OK
[20:18] <YeTr2> NFS
[20:18] <Twerk^> lol
[20:18] <Twerk^> office and so on
[20:18] <Gnea> chrisorange2: where did you buy it from?
[20:18] <awakebyjava> alright
[20:18] <Marsjanin> Need for speed? ^_^
[20:18] <maxxist_> chrisorange2 U R dumb.
[20:18] <chrisorange2> a friend
[20:18] <Gnea> maxxist_: stop.
[20:18] <awakebyjava> i need to get this installation of xubuntu to find the cdrom
[20:18] <maxxist_> sorry
[20:18] <Gnea> chrisorange2: how much did you give your friend?
[20:18] <Twerk^> don't feed the trolls.
[20:19] <ay^> An arm, and leg!
[20:19] <awakebyjava> its not right now, but i can find the info with dmesg | grep -i cd-rom
[20:19] <maxxist_> ay^ lol
[20:19] <__mork> Gnea: don't know!
[20:19] <awakebyjava> any ideas?
[20:19] <russell__> Great news about the x-fi driver from creative is now open source :) :)
[20:19] <Twerk^> russell_: really?  that is good news.
[20:19] <Marsjanin> So, I'll back in a minute.
[20:20] <Gnea> __mork: what happens if you run top, then up/down the volume with the button? do you see any program use more resources at the time as a result?
[20:20] <russell__> Twerk^: Yeah check the story out on Digg.com
[20:20] <chrisorange2> he, do you want buy my ubuntu?
[20:20] <Gnea> !de | chrisorange2
[20:20] <__mork> Gnea: just tried. I see mixer_applet2
[20:20] <awakebyjava> anyone? issue with the cdrom not reading during install
[20:20] <Gnea> __mork: sounds like something that's running on the top panel
[20:21] <__mork> Gnea: An osd appears on the screen, and th e hw buttons set the volume
[20:21] <__mork> Gnea: would you please rephrase?
[20:21] <Twerk^> russell_: interesting... cant wait till the jack guys get their hands on that
[20:21] <Gnea> __mork: try this - double-click on the volume control button on the top panel, you should get a new window
[20:22] <__mork> Gnea: yes, gnome-volume-control (?)
[20:23] <Gnea> __mork: alright - now when you up/down the volume, does the bar on the Master or PCM slide along with it?
[20:23] <awakebyjava> well the person who was helping me had to leave
[20:23] <awakebyjava> so now i am lost
[20:23] <Atax> Hi all, what would be a typicall directory for me to place my games in?
[20:24] <KXY> I have a problem when rebooting or shutting down. When I do this the screen turns black with a blinking cursor and after a few minutes it prints "acpid exiting" and then continues the reboot or shutdown process. What can I do to solve this? This started happening when I switched to ubuntu 8.10
[20:24] <Twerk^> atax: depends on the game
[20:24] <sfears> is it an issue that my wireless card shows up in iwconfig as eth2 instead of wlan2? could that be a reason i can't connect wirelessly?
[20:24] <__mork> Gnea: yes (btw thanks for helping me)
[20:24] <kane_f4> hi, I have slight problem with compiz.. sometimes the windows' toolbar gets blank (http://img89.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotdn0.png the window with the game and the upper terminal window..) does anyone know what to do to fix it?
[20:24] <chuckmoney> awakebyjava: unless your CD drive is an external drive and it is either losing power or underpowered (a problem I have often with my own USB DVD Burner) I have no clue why a CD would die during install.
[20:24] <Jeruvy> I see intrepid can connect my iPhone, how about iTunes? ;)
[20:24] <Atax> Well, lets say urban terror, where would i place it, which directory?
[20:24] <awakebyjava> chuckmoney: it isnt dying, the install doesnt detect it
[20:24] <jgonick> awakebyjava:  have you tried "nodma"
[20:25] <dietre> Atax, perhaps /opt ?
[20:25] <awakebyjava> jgonick: nodma is what? that is to say, no i havent.
[20:25] <Atax> Would t games be placed under /usr* somewhere?
[20:26] <mikutzu> j
[20:26] <KR-data> how can I know if someone is connected to my SSH-server?

[20:26] <chuckmoney> awakebyjava: let jgonick help you with this one, but a key piece of info here is which installer you are using, the GUI from the LiveCD or the alternate CD console install?  if you're installing from the LiveCD GUI I'm personally kinda baffled since it does boot all the way in and then somehow the install fails, but often the alternate CD will be able to begin booting and then fail to load the drive.

[20:29] <bobbiem> I need help installing java for 8.04
[20:29] <Gnea> robacarp: eh, whoever it is is obviously looking for trouble
[20:29] <rand0m> video driver problems with ATI RADEON XPRESS 200m series video card..... all sound and video is very very choppy and slow, and obv not working properly.... what do I do?  I'm a noob as of 8.04 and hardly figured that out
[20:30] <Cripps> hm ... it appears to be a mkisofs problem ... I tried mounting ym iso on a virtual machine, and I got the same behaviour.
[20:30] <awakebyjava> okay, crap, i really have to go to a meeting. thank you for your help all i will be back
[20:30] <Jordan_U> robacarp: linux-restricted-modules depends on the latest *generic* restricted modules available. Is there a reason you are using a server kernel?
[20:30] <robacarp> Gnea: true, is there a romanian channel? ubuntu-ro?
[20:30] <Marsjanin> Well, any ideas now, YeTr2?
[20:30] <Pici> robacarp: yes

[20:30] <Gnea> robacarp: yup :)
[20:30] <KXY> Hello. I have a problem that no one seems to be able to solve. I have a problem when rebooting or shutting down. When I do this the screen turns black with a blinking cursor and after a few minutes it prints "acpid exiting" and then continues the reboot or shutdown process. What can I do to solve this? This started happening when I switched to ubuntu 8.10
[20:31] <bek1> is there anyone to answer
[20:31] <bek1> ?
[20:31] <WormDrink> hi
[20:31] <Gnea> robacarp: either way, it looked french, came out as romanian, and is coming from italy
[20:31] <robacarp> Jordan_U: well, the machine runs samba as a PDC
[20:31] <WormDrink> is there any way to install ubuntu over network ?
[20:31] <rand0m> bek1, : no i dont think so.. ive been here all day and it seems like it's just a bunch of users asking questions and VERY few experienced users answering simple questions
[20:31] <robacarp> Gnea: :-)...I copied it over to google translate to detect the romanian
[20:31] <Cripps> bek1, what was the question?
[20:31] <bek1> rand0m what's your problem
[20:31] <j2daosh> gnea romanian french and italian have alot of similarities :)
[20:31] <bek1> ?
[20:32] <KXY> So these experts only answer the simple questions?
[20:32] <rand0m> video driver problems with ATI RADEON XPRESS 200m series video card..... all sound and video is very very choppy and slow, and obv not working properly.... what do I do?  I'm a noob as of 8.04 and hardly figured that out
[20:32] <Marsjanin> YeTr2: ping? :]
[20:32] <jgonick> awakebyjava:   chuckmoney probably can help you better.  I know with older cd-rom disabling dma helps.  It will keep loosing the cd-rom unless you use ide=nodma on install. not exactly sure why, but I have had to do this on older computers.  Live CD will always work, but will ahng and loose the cd on install.
[20:32] <KR-data> firestarter seems to show a connection to my SSH-server, how can I know if he's in or just trying stupid things?
 is there anyone to answer
[20:32] <j2daosh> rand0m: what driver are you using?
[20:32] <j2daosh> KXY: whats the problem?
[20:32] <KXY> I have a problem when rebooting or shutting down. When I do this the screen turns black with a blinking cursor and after a few minutes it prints "acpid exiting" and then continues the reboot or shutdown process. What can I do to solve this? This started happening when I switched to ubuntu 8.10
[20:32] <Guinnesss> WormDrink: I know there is because a few weeks ago I heard about a guy who set up a plug and play network interface, where you plug in your pc and reboot and then ubuntu installs.
[20:32] <rand0m> j2daosh, not quite sure.. not even sure how to check
[20:32] <bek1> Cripps I have an ubuntu server 7.10 and I want to add a user with access+home only on the second disk not the first
[20:32] <chuckmoney> KXY: you could remove acpid from /etc/rc*.d/ (several different folders, but mainly rc5.d) so it wouldn't load on boot, but if you have a laptop this will disable the power management features
[20:33] <kri> if i suspect somone is in my system what process should i kill ?
[20:33] <Gnea> j2daosh, robacarp: ah okay, well i'm just a dumb yank, thanks :)
[20:33] <Jordan_U> robacarp: You don't need to use a server kernel to be a PDC, and if you are also using the computer as a desktop you probably want to go with the generic kernel
[20:33] <djhash> !netinstall
[20:33] <KXY> chuckmonkey is that a bad thing?
[20:33] <n8tuser> kri you can shutdown -h now
[20:33] <Guinnesss> Don't no how to do it though, try searching in google for "plug and play", ubuntu etc
[20:33] <j2daosh> KXY, well you know that standby feature... it wont work anymore
[20:33] <chris1> ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' i get this when i do mysql sqldatabase < sqlfile.sql
[20:34] <KXY> No I use a desktop
[20:34] <j2daosh> chris1: -> #mysql
[20:34] <robacarp> Jordan_U: well...not to be difficult, but I'd rather not reinstall just because I want to use it as a desktop in addition to the PDC
[20:34] <chris1> ight
[20:34] <Gnea> __mork: i wonder if pulseaudio is getting in the way....
[20:34] <j2daosh> KXY, well then i guess it doesn't matter then
[20:34] <bek1> Cripps any idea?
[20:34] <Jordan_U> robacarp: You don't need to reinstall
[20:34] <robacarp> Jordan_U: is there a way to un-flag the ubuntu kernel out of server mode?
[20:34] <KXY> But my PC will shutdown or restart like it did in 8.04 right?
[20:34] <Cripps> bek1 you could create a new group for the user, and allow that group access to only the second disk (i.e. /dev/sdb if you're using scsi/sata)
[20:35] <chuckmoney> KXY: only if you have a laptop.  if you have a desktop then disabling acpid should be fine
[20:35] <loller> some has an experience with anjuta i can`t why it says Program '/home/...' is not a local file
[20:35] <Cripps> bek1, I need a few more minutes to think about exactly how to do that though.
[20:35] <Jordan_U> robacarp: AFAIK you can just install linux-generic
[20:35] <KXY> Ok thanks for the solution you guys
[20:35] <bek1> Cripps the user wouldn't see the /
[20:35] <djhash> chris1: you need to loginto mysql.. try mysql -u root -p PASSWORD -d database < sqlfile.sql
[20:35] <bek1> ?
[20:35] <HorizonXP> !mpd
[20:35] <j2daosh> KXY: it will shutdown the way it used to without the acpid "error"
[20:35] <KXY> I'll try it out in a few
[20:35] <HorizonXP> !musicplayerdaemon
[20:35] <KXY> Nice
[20:35] <chris1> djhash- thank you!
[20:35] <kri> n8tuser: haha very funny
[20:35] <HorizonXP> !sonata
[20:35] <dietre> chris1, give username and password parameters to the mysql command
[20:35] <Jordan_U> robacarp: Not sure if you need to do that to use restricted modules though
[20:35] <loller> maybe the right question is where is the directory where the programs are local
[20:36] <Pici> !fishing | HorizonXP
[20:36]  * KXY is away
[20:36] <__mork> Gnea: is there no way to find what happens after pressing the key?
[20:36] <djhash> bek1: everyone who is not root might be able to see the / but not modify it.. depends on group access permissions
[20:36] <robacarp> Jordan_U: me either. I can't decide if it makes sense to restrict the restricted modules to the generic kernel
[20:36] <gunavara> guys, where i can find some cool gnome desktop themes ?
[20:36] <n8tuser> kri-> no, not at all, if you suspect, something is amiss, you can shut your system or disconnect the network physically
[20:36] <Cripps> bek1, oh, so you're looking for a way to lock them into their own homedir ... check out google for "chroot" ... there are some really nifty tricks you can play with that.
[20:36] <HorizonXP> hey, i'm trying to set up MPD, and I can get it to work. I ran the mpd --create-db command, which seemed to work. but when i run sonata, no files are listed. any help?
[20:36] <belial------> aaa
[20:36] <j2daosh> loller: depends on what application your looking for
[20:36] <robacarp> Jordan_U: what is the difference between the generic and server kernels, do you know?
[20:36] <cyberix> My joypad doesn't work with a brand new Intrepid installation. It used to work on Intrepid and Hardy on another installation.
[20:37] <cyberix> The pad is able to move mouse
[20:37] <bek1> djhash I want to lock them on
[20:37] <Gnea> __mork: try disabling pulseaudio and see if that has an effect
[20:37] <Pici> HorizonXP: You need to modify your /etc/mpd.conf file to point at the directory where your music resides.
[20:37] <ilembitov> How can I restore default Ubuntu's menu structure?
[20:37] <bek1> Cripps thanks mate
[20:37] <cyberix> Maybe something is capturing the signal and doesn't let it through to games
[20:37] <__mork> Gnea: should I kill it?
[20:37] <cyberix> Any idea?
[20:37] <Jordan_U> robacarp: I know that the 32 bit server kernel can address > 4 GIG RAM, not sure what else is different
[20:37] <HorizonXP> Pici: i did that in ~/.mpdconf
[20:37] <Cripps> bek1, don't thank me yet ... there's lots of info to sift through first ;)
[20:37] <n8tuser> cyberix-> look at your older xorg.conf and look for the entry of  your joypad, then have same entry in the new 8.10
[20:37] <Pici> HorizonXP: /var/log/mpd/mpd.log will tell you if there any errors when sonata connects to mpd and cannot find the music.
[20:37] <__mork> Gnea: disregard my qstion
[20:37] <HorizonXP> Pici: is it necessary to change it in the root config too?
[20:37] <djhash> bek1: define lock? denying read access to / will probably break the user.. cause then they wont be able to run applications..
[20:37] <kri> n8tuser: ok i killed some processes i will reboot and then install ippl... good or what?
[20:38] <Gnea> __mork: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=885437  <-- follow this guide, but don't install esound
[20:38] <bek1> Cripps don't worry I'll figure it out ;)
[20:38] <cyberix> n8tuser: That might be tricky as I don't have an xorg.conf on the old system
[20:38] <Pici> HorizonXP: No, that should be enough.
[20:38] <n8tuser> kri-> what are you trying to protect?
[20:38] <Jordan_U> robacarp: In intrepid there seems to be a linux-restricted-modules-2.6.27-7-server package but no linux-restricted-modules-server
[20:38] <Pici> HorizonXP: Make sure that the user that is running the mpd service has rights to the directory that you are storing your music in.
[20:38] <n8tuser> cyberix-> well, hope you learned something, keeping an older working system around instead of just an outright upgrade
[20:38] <rand0m> video driver problems with ATI RADEON XPRESS 200m series video card..... all sound and video is very very choppy and slow, and obv not working properly.... what do I do?    Can I look through the gutsy packages for a linux-restricted pack?
[20:39] <Gnea> !ati | rand0m
[20:39] <n8tuser> kri-> i already gave you advise, disconnect network physically
[20:39] <__mork> Gnea: killing pulseaudio stops the audio, but the volume still increases by steps of 50%
[20:39] <Gnea> rand0m: have you read that site?
[20:39] <bek1> djhash this user won't run apps
[20:39] <Pici> HorizonXP: Did you check that log file for errors?
[20:39] <Jordan_U> robacarp: apt-cache search
[20:40] <rand0m> Gnea,  no i haven't yet, thank you
[20:40] <Cripps> djhash, if the directories containing binaries were exported, then they could be mounted in ~/ ... that way the user would have access to apps, but they would still be locked into their homedir.
[20:40] <HorizonXP> Pici: all it says is Avahi: Service 'Music Player' successfully establish
[20:40] <bek1> djhash: Cripps gave me an idea, I have also another one with quota. Thanks a lot.
[20:40] <Cripps> mind you ... that almost defeats the purpose ;)
[20:41] <HorizonXP> Pici: everytime i do /etc/init.d/mpd restart, it prints that in the log file
[20:41] <Oprtz> what is the name of default Network Manager in ubuntu 8.10 ? i need to install it
[20:41] <robacarp> yea, there doesn't appear to be anything in there for server.  `apt-cache search linux-restricted | grep server` gives no hits
[20:41] <cyberix> n8tuser: I have it around, but it doesn't help.
[20:41] <rodrigo__> #tagua
[20:41] <n8tuser> Oprtz-> same, maybe you can try wicd
[20:41] <__mork> Gnea: the link you wrote seems not to have to do with pulseaudio (my issue neither)
[20:41] <cyberix> n8tuser: Because it doesn't have xorg.conf
[20:41] <n8tuser> cyberix-> it will help if you can compare the older working xorg.conf and your newer one, see if any differences
[20:42] <Gnea> __mork: are you sure you pasted the correct URL?
[20:42] <giuseppe_> sometimes on my notebook display becomes black and neither mouse or keyboard work... anyone can help me?
[20:42] <cyberix> n8tuser: It doesn't have xorg.conf
[20:42] <Rusty0918> Hey folks
[20:42] <n8tuser> cyberix-> i has no X windows? or gui?
[20:42] <Oprtz> n8tuser:  i installed wicd, and it works good for me, just want to know if i install default network manager, will it replace the wicd ? without damaging the internet ?
[20:42] <Gnea> HOWTO: Fix all PulseAudio-related issues in 2 minutes  <-- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=885437
[20:42] <cyberix> n8tuser: It has. It just doesn't have the configuration file.
[20:42] <Rusty0918> I've just started to try to use Ubuntu...I'm attempting to put Ubuntu on a separate hard disk away from my Windows Vista hard disk.
[20:42] <cyberix> n8tuser: I guess xorg works without it these days
[20:42] <n8tuser> Oprtz-> i dont think you can damage the internet much :P  but supposedly wicd is the up and coming one
[20:43] <HorizonXP> Pici: no ideas eh?
[20:43] <Rusty0918> When I initially installed it with the Grub loader, it wouldn't load either operating system
[20:43] <Gnea> __mork: maybe there's another sound configuration in the system menus that can handle it...
[20:43] <n8tuser> cyberix-> nope, it always need that config file xorg.conf
[20:43] <st0rm> Hi
[20:43] <Oprtz> n8tuser: ahh, i already have wind :)
[20:43] <Rusty0918> I had to fix the Vista booter with the boot record repair thingy
[20:43] <robacarp> Jordan_U: if I pull in the linux-generic kernel, is that going to update the system to the latest kernel or pull the kernel version that I am using, but without the kernel flag?
[20:43] <n8tuser> Oprtz-> then you are set...good to go
[20:43]  * Rusty0918 wonders how this works
[20:44] <Rusty0918> Sorry, I'm new here
[20:44] <balle_> is there a way to mount image files like deamon tools in wine?=
[20:44] <__mork> Gnea: i killed pulseaudio (i didn't uninstall it), but, without output of sound, the volume still increases/decreases by a step 50%
[20:44] <MexTux> Hello! I'm setting up a new FTP server. I don't have any idea about what local_umask=022 does mean. Does anybody know? My OS is Ubuntu 8.04
[20:44] <n8tuser> MexTux-> man mask
[20:44] <Oprtz> n8tuser: just curious to use 3g in the default network manaer, and wicd dont have 3g
[20:44] <linnoob007> I just installed a fresh copy of intrepid and immediately after running updates and nothing else I get the error system-tools-backends failed to start. First I got a crash report but now it just says an error has occurred. How can I fix this?
[20:45] <robacarp> balle_: are you trying to mount an iso under linux?
[20:45] <n8tuser> MexTux oop there is none for mask nor umask..google for it instead
[20:45] <ardchoille> How do I turn off alsa permanently ?
[20:45] <n8tuser> Oprtz-> 3g?
[20:45] <cyberix> n8tuser: .
[20:45] <cyberix> cyberix@bunnypump:~$ ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[20:45] <cyberix> ls: cannot access /etc/X11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory
[20:45] <balle_> robcarp: no, its an image file like .cue or something, i'm trying to play a game
[20:45] <Oprtz> 3g mobile internet
[20:45] <Jordan_U> robacarp: It will install the latest generic kernel available for gutsy
[20:45] <mc__> hi! I have installed ubuntu on my macbook but now I cant boot from it!
[20:45] <Gnea> __mork: i'm wondering if the system needs to be restarted before it will take effect properly
[20:45] <n8tuser> cyberix-> in the new one? you got to have it to have an X windows
[20:45] <mc__> the installation went fine, i used the whole disk
[20:45] <Marsjanin> Hello
[20:46] <Jordan_U> mc__: What version of Ubuntu?
[20:46] <__mork> Gnea: I think that pressing the hw button triggers a bios event catched by alsa-mixer gnome-mixer (if exists) and somewhere there should be  a value (in gconf?) that says to the system how much should it increase the volume
[20:46] <cyberix> n8tuser: In the old one
[20:46] <__mork> Gnea: good point
[20:46] <cyberix> n8tuser: It works perfectly
[20:46] <mc__> Jordan_U, 8.10
[20:46] <Gnea> __mork: i believe you are correct
[20:46] <n8tuser> Oprtz-> the network managers has nothing to do with a 3G its the driver using it does
[20:46] <rwat> I have a thinkpad R40, about 5-6 years old, with a broken screen and I want to use it for a computer in my bedroom. Because the screen is no use (and a bit small) I want to use it only with an external monitor. Does anyone know if you can make X11 use primarily the external screen?
[20:46] <Jordan_U> mc__: Did you install with the LiveCD?
[20:46] <Gnea> __mork: it could be ACPI
[20:46] <mc__> Jordan_U, yes
[20:46] <scunizi> Help.. After installing a new motherboard I'm getting Busy Box on boot to the HD and with the live cd after choosing "Try Ubuntu without any....."..  any help would be appriciated
[20:46] <n8tuser> cyberix-> yeah in the old one you also have xorg.conf
[20:46] <Gnea> __mork: what's the model of your hp again?
[20:46] <Rusty0918> I'm usinv the latest Ubunto 8.10
[20:46] <robacarp> balle_: I think you have to do a bin2iso conversion on the cue/bin pair and get an iso out first, which can then me mounted to an empty folder
[20:46] <Jordan_U> mc__: What happens when you try to boot Ubuntu?
[20:47] <riddley> how do I turn off the icon for Universal Access Preferences?
[20:47] <Rusty0918> Anyways, I've got three internal hard drives.
[20:47] <_Zeus_> riddley: system > preferences > main menu
[20:47] <robacarp> Jordan_U: thats what I figured. thanks for the advice
[20:47] <mc__> Jordan_U, well I dont have the option to boot ubuntu at all
[20:47] <balle_> robacarp: ok thx i'm gonna look into that
[20:47] <n8tuser> cyberix-> anyhow google for the kind of pad you have and xorg.conf
[20:47] <Rusty0918> All SATA
[20:47] <Rusty0918> 500.0 GB (Windows Vista)
[20:47] <__mork> dv9585el
[20:47] <mc__> my notebook does only boot from cd
[20:47] <Oprtz> n8tuser:  i want that wicd , dont have the 3G option
[20:47] <Gnea> scunizi: see if the livecd boots
[20:47] <__mork> Gnea: dv9585el
[20:47] <Rusty0918> 80.0 GB (where Linux will go)
[20:47] <robacarp> balle_: google "linux mount cue"
[20:47] <scunizi> Gnea: I just mentioned that it happens even with the live cd
[20:47] <riddley> _Zeus_, thanks
[20:47] <Rusty0918> And of course an older 300.0 GB Hard drive (from previous machine)
[20:47] <balle_> robacarp: great thx man
[20:48] <n8tuser> Oprtz-> 3g option is on the modem, and the driver for your wifi controls that, not wicd nor n-m.. otherthan it just enables the interfaces
[20:48] <robacarp> balle_: np, good luck
[20:48] <Jordan_U> mc__: Ahh, you have to either hold down the option key at boot ( and choose windows, because Apple refuses to acknowledged that any other Operating system besides OSX and windows exists ) or install rEFIt which will give you a boot menu
[20:48] <riddley> _Zeus_, that turns it off in the menu, how do I get it out of my panel?
[20:48] <balle_> robacarp: it appears that CDemu does exactly what i want to do!
[20:48] <bobbiem> i need help. i just upgraded to 8.04 and i am trying to get java to work. anyone have any ideas
[20:48] <_Zeus_> riddley: wait, what do you mean the panel?>
[20:48] <mc__> Jordan_U, there is no windows option at boot up
[20:48] <_Zeus_> riddley: right click and say delete from panel?
[20:48] <Oprtz> n8tuser: thanks for the info
[20:48] <riddley> _Zeus_, it's in my notification area
[20:48] <Jordan_U>  mc__: Did you hold down the option key?
[20:48] <riddley> _Zeus_, and there is no right-click option
[20:48] <robacarp> balle_: sweet!  I'll keep that in mind
[20:49] <_Zeus_> riddley: do you have something running?
[20:49] <n8tuser> bobbiem-> we have plenty of ideas, tell us what you did
[20:49] <GodfatherofEire> How would one go about installing the linux drivers for the Realtek RTL8185L?
[20:49] <rand0m> Gnea, : honestly, that guide is pretty  much just confusing to me lol
[20:49] <HorizonXP> hey, if I have run mpd --create-db correctly, then why would mpc stats show that I have no music?
[20:49] <riddley> _Zeus_, not intentionally... I just upgraded from 8.04
[20:49] <rand0m> "if this is this, do that.. if that's this, do this!"  i just dont follow
[20:49] <mc__> Jordan_U, yeah
[20:49] <Gnea> scunizi: d'oh, sorry didn't see that right away... tried booting with the splash off?
[20:49] <GodfatherofEire> And not through ndiswrapper, Realtek has their own support for Linux, I just cant quite figure out how to compile it
[20:49] <_Zeus_> riddley: okay.  right clicking is no good?
[20:49] <mc__> Jordan_U, I can only boot from the cd
[20:49] <Gnea> scunizi: or can you see the dmesg?
[20:49] <_Zeus_> riddley: have you logged out and back in?
[20:49] <riddley> _Zeus_, if I click it, I get a preferences window, but none of the prefs are "make this stupid icon go away" :)
[20:49] <darkvertex> balle_: you can also try cdemu, it supports cue and mds among others
[20:49] <Marsjanin> Pelo: You just talked about #cron channel, arent' You? Hmm, on what server?!
[20:50] <scunizi> Gnea: no haven't tried with splash off. how do I do that.. ?
[20:50] <balle_> darkvertex: :) it is the one i'm checking out now
[20:50] <Jordan_U> mc__: Do you see the Ubuntu partition in disk utility or from the Ubuntu LiveCD ?
[20:50] <scunizi> Gnea: can't get to anyplace to see dmesg..
[20:50] <robacarp> GodfatherofEire: you can start by running lspci and checking for what the sound card reports itself as, then google that
[20:50] <riddley> _Zeus_, I removed something from the list of startup stuff in Session, but that list seems to get ignored entirely
[20:50] <GodfatherofEire> Robacarp, its a wireless card
[20:51] <GodfatherofEire> Not a sound card
[20:51] <Gnea> scunizi: press F6 and backspace over "quiet splash"
[20:51] <ljuwaidah> I'm fucking bored
[20:51] <ljuwaidah> sorry for the language
[20:51] <Gnea> scunizi: ...that's when the cd boots up
[20:51] <scunizi> Gnea: ah.. trying now with safe graphics mode.
[20:51] <bobbiem> n8tuser,  i thought that maybe i with the upgrade it would help with java. i put in sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
[20:51] <_Zeus_> riddley: hmm
[20:51] <robacarp> GodfatherofEire: lol...right.  same deal, but swap sound for wifi.  freudian slip
[20:52] <ljuwaidah> later
[20:52] <scunizi> Gnea: now trying with splash off
[20:52] <GodfatherofEire> No problem, but Robacarp, I have the drivers, but I just dont know exactly how to set it up, because I have to configure it, its not in a .deb file
[20:52] <fallore> Is there a way to make the "Not connected? Printer 'printer' may not be connected" popup go away? It just won't stop...
[20:52] <bobbiem> n8tuser, it told me that the file exists, but now what?
[20:53] <scunizi> Gnea: looks more encouraging..
[20:53] <robacarp> GodfatherofEire: I see.  what form are th drivers in?  is there a file called "configure"?
[20:53] <scunizi> Gnea: I spoke too soon.. busy box again
[20:53] <Gnea> scunizi: do the kernel messages say anything about any errors?
[20:53] <Gnea> __mork: i'm really baffled
[20:54] <DB24> is there a guide for installing vmware 5.x tools on ubuntu 8.10 guest ?
[20:54] <chuckmoney> wow...I go send 2 emails and now I can't find my last message...spooky.  anyhow, I'm back for a few minutes
[20:54] <GodfatherofEire> Robacarp: nope. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/68988/
[20:55] <scunizi> Gnea: yes on ata4 "failed to identify (i/o error, err_mask=0x44)... but things are actually still rolling..
[20:55] <robacarp> GodfatherofEire: whats in the readme?
[20:55] <Gnea> scunizi: what's plugged into ata4?
[20:55] <__mork> Gnea: found something interesting here: /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/plugins/media-keys
[20:55] <__mork> Gnea: in gconf-editor
[20:56] <HorizonXP> Pici: I had to modify it in /etc/mpd.conf. No idea why that's required, but it works
[20:56] <scunizi> Gnea: also sda:<4> Driver 'sr' needs updating - please use bus_type methods
[20:56] <Jordan_U> mc__: Do you see the Ubuntu partition in disk utility or from the Ubuntu LiveCD ?
[20:56] <Gnea> scunizi: sr is of no consequence
[20:56] <Pici> HorizonXP: Weird, the manpage said it would look in your home first.
[20:56] <DB24> is there a guide for installing vmware 5.x tools on ubuntu 8.10 guest ?
[20:56] <mc__> Jordan_U, yes it does see it
[20:57] <HorizonXP> Pici: yeah, i'd prefer to set it up that way
[20:57] <HorizonXP> let me keep hunting
[20:57] <chuckmoney> DB24: not that I'm aware of.  I think the only way to do that is to compile them from source on the guest
[20:57] <GodfatherofEire> Robacarp: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/68992/
[20:57] <DB24> k
[20:57] <DB24> chuckmoney: any guides for that/
[20:58] <loco> Hey guys, I've installed ubuntu 8.10 on my pendrive, using it as hd, but grub does'nt seem to work, it goes right to a Minimal BASH-like blablabla and it's not showing the menu, someone knows what I'm doing wrong?
[20:58] <scunizi> Gnea: now it just seems stuck after "sd 6:0:1:0 Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0
[20:58] <n8tuser> bobbiem-> your symlink command does not have a destination
[20:58] <robacarp> GodfatherofEire: did you read the section on "Installation"? at line 33
[20:58] <fallore> loco: the blah blah blah part would be helpful
[20:58] <chuckmoney> DB24: not really.  I immagine it consists of getting the source package for generic *NIX vmware tools (they come with vmware workstation for linux) and then just ./configure, make, sudo make install.
[20:58] <n8tuser> bobbiem-> re-read the tutorial that you read that from
[20:58] <Gnea> scunizi: could be a bad dvd or hard drive cable
[20:59] <scunizi> Gnea: new on both.
[20:59] <Gnea> scunizi: could still be bad.
[20:59] <GodfatherofEire> robacarp: Yes, I did, but exactly where should the original archive extract to so that it can install properly?
[20:59] <GodfatherofEire> Like, what dir?
[20:59] <neuton> hi all...I have a question about ubuntu server
[20:59] <neuton> is this the correct forum room?
[20:59] <mc__> Jordan_U, do you think it was a mistake that I created a new partition table?
[20:59] <loco> fallore it's like this: [ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible completions of a device/filename. ] and there is a grub> and the prompt
[20:59] <Jordan_U> mc__: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook suggests making sure grub is set to install to /dev/sda
[20:59] <__mork> another question: how to learn about the new quit button???
[20:59] <scunizi> Gnea: yea.. I've got others to try.. if that's not it what's next?
[20:59] <Sajuta> neuton: Yes it is.
[21:00] <KXY> chuckmonkey that solution you gave me changed only one thing. "acpid exiting" doesn't get printed anymore but my PC still hangs for like 2 min or so. lol
[21:00] <__mork> i mean in the panel of gnome shipped with 8.10
[21:00] <chuckmoney> DB24: it should be a standard install from source deal.  the only difference is maybe it will require that you skip ./configure - typically vmware just distributes their .o files instead of the actual .c source code so it is still distro-dependant but this way they don't show you their actual source.
[21:00] <Skrot-> Hi, how can I find which resources are used by a kernel module (or vice versa)?
[21:00] <Jatz> Hey, I'm trying to get sound to work after resume on my Aspire one, as in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne#AUDIO . but it isn't working
[21:00] <unitedpotsmokers> they said, if we use ubuntu on laptop, it will make ours hot.. is it true?
[21:00] <neuton> ok I setup a server for my use and followed this guide for torrentflux-b4rt http://empireofmine.blogspot.com/2007/10/how-to-setup-web-based-bittorrent.html
[21:00] <robacarp> GodfatherofEire:  It shouldn't matter.  if you extract the original archive to your ~ then from inside that dir just run ./makedrv to build it
[21:00] <Alan> How do I stop pulseaudio being launched by my user?  I have it set up to start with the system at the moment because I use MPD and I don't want my music to stop when I restart X...
[21:00] <Jatz> sudo m-a a-i alsa doesn't work, it says building of alsa failed
[21:01] <Jatz> hello?
[21:01] <n8tuser> Skrot--> some modules are loaded as needed, what exactly are you looking for?
[21:01] <Alan> The problem is that then I end up with 2 instances, one of which has no sound device access
[21:01] <robacarp> GodfatherofEire: when that finishes, it looks like you can then do ./wlan0up to load the driver into the kernel
[21:01] <chuckmoney> unitedpotsmokers: no.  Ubuntu with improper CPU fan control won't make your computer any hotter than Windows with improper CPU fan control.
[21:01] <neuton> however I can't find where apt-get installed transmission-cli? I followed the guide but its not where the guide says
[21:01] <__mork> Gnea: for the volume question: I found http://gnome-settings-daemon.sourcearchive.com/documentation/<IP_ADDRESS>/gsd-media-keys-manager_8c-source.html that there is a comment about volume step (line 60)
[21:01] <GodfatherofEire> Did that, robacarp, but when I go to use wlan0up, it says theres no file
[21:01] <Jordan_U> __mork: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/233
[21:01] <unitedpotsmokers> thanks chuckmoney ... but
[21:01] <Skrot-> n8tuser: nfsd is in use even though nfs-kernel-server is stopped, and ps aux | grep -i nfs reveals nothing.
[21:01] <Jatz> this is stupid, I can't get sound to work.
[21:02] <neuton> so how can I find where the file was installed to in the command prompt of server?
[21:02] <GodfatherofEire> robacarp: Under the ieee80211 folder, says some are missing
[21:02] <n8tuser> Skrot--> how did you determine nfsd is in use?
[21:02] <Skrot-> n8tuser: sudo rmmod nfsd
[21:02] <chuckmoney> unitedpotsmokers: If it gets hot under ubuntu and not under windows, it means you have an error with acpid.  Errors with acpid are exceptionally rare since ACPI is pretty universal now, basically, yes, it might overheat, but if it overheats under Ubuntu it is just as likely to do so with windows.  It's not an OS-related problem.
[21:03] <n8tuser> Skrot--> a module loaded does not use much memory
[21:03] <n8tuser> lest it is running
[21:03] <Skrot-> n8tuser: The problem is I need to reload the module and I don't want to reboot the server.
[21:03] <burkesbythebay> Can anyone tell me the name of a good Tetris type game for ubuntu
[21:03] <dietre> neuton, perhaps: dpkg-query -S transmission-cli
[21:03] <KXY> ACPID is a pain in the ass
[21:03] <unitedpotsmokers> chuckmoney, : can u explain to me why, when i open system log viewer, i got this alert " unable to turn cooling system device 'on' " im using intrepid ibex.. pls help
[21:03] <Jatz> hellooo. MAH SOUND DUN WORK. when I try to rebuild alsa with sudo m-a a-i alsa, it says it failed.
[21:03] <Skrot-> n8tuser: So I want to remove the module and load it again, thus I need to kill whatever uses it :)
[21:03] <neuton> ok ;et me try that ty
[21:03] <dietre> neuton, no, better would be: dpkg-query -L transmission-cli
[21:03] <n8tuser> Skrot--> kernel modules are finicky, sometimes you can not just unload it and reload
[21:04] <robacarp> GodfatherofEire: what files does it say are missing? have you tried running it as sudo?
[21:04] <Jordan_U> burkesbythebay: Ubuntu comes with gnometris
[21:04] <n8tuser> Skrot--> so your recourse is only to reboot
[21:04] <Skrot-> n8tuser: well, any way to find the processes that are using it?
[21:04] <__mork> can someone interpret for me line 694 here http://gnome-settings-daemon.sourcearchive.com/documentation/<IP_ADDRESS>/gsd-media-keys-manager_8c-source.html ? it seems that I can write some key in gconf-editor...
[21:04] <chuckmoney> KXY: yes, it is, when it fails.  Problem is your issue is one in a million - it usually works.  I have run Ubuntu on 11 computers (mostly laptops) from 7 manufacturers and acpid is just about the only system service that hasn't ever failed for me.
[21:04] <neuton> hmm its only showing me that it put transmission in /usr/share/doc?
[21:04] <__mork> Jordan_U: thanks
[21:04] <n8tuser> Skrot if it was not showing on ps -aux   then not sure how
[21:04] <Jordan_U> __mork: np
[21:04] <Skrot-> n8tuser: no go (for now), the server is remote and uses a encryption password at boot :-)
[21:04] <Jatz> I hate to repete myself, but nobody has told me to stfu yet.
[21:04] <unitedpotsmokers> yeah ACPI... but i dont know whats acpi actually... how to fix this problem..
[21:04] <KXY> chuckmonkey: Lucky you :p
[21:04] <neuton> ok that did it
[21:04]  * Jatz sound doesn't work, m-a says alsa failed to build
[21:05] <Kolin871> Hi, I can't get my sound working on my laptop, does anybody know what shell I do?
[21:05] <chris1> anyone run torrentflux on unbuntu server i need sum helpz..
[21:05] <Jatz> chris1: I do
[21:05] <neuton> so its in the right place like the guide said, but in the torrentflux setup it still shows a red dot like it can't find it?
[21:05] <unitedpotsmokers> pls reply when u ready
[21:05] <n8tuser> Skrot--> well its tuff, you dont have a secretary at remote to just press buttons? :P
[21:05] <chuckmoney> unitedpotsmokers: sounds like it can't figure out which /dev/* device is your CPU or case fan.  I'd double-check and be sure it's not a hardware problem if you have a desktop.  Sometimes the fan plug to the motherboard is easy to knock out by mistake when you upgrade RAM, etc.
[21:05] <neuton> lol I am also asking for help on the same thing chris1
[21:06] <GodfatherofEire> robacarp: here's the feedback from the terminal http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/69002/
[21:06] <Gnea> __mork: nice.
[21:06] <Skrot-> n8tuser: hehe, no ;)
[21:06] <Jatz> neuton, chris1, I dp
[21:06] <scunizi> Gnea: can you plug an older (ie slower) sata drive into the newer faster sata connector?
[21:06] <Jatz> *do
[21:06] <Jatz> can anyone even frakking hear me? I'm ident'd
[21:06] <computer> hi i have installed ubuntustudio-desktop how do i go back or switch between the desktops?
[21:06] <djhash> !repeat | Jatz
[21:06] <n8tuser> Skrot--> you can remove the grub password and then reboot, then put it back if it rebooted okay?
[21:06] <__mork> Gnea: nice, but... still stuck here
[21:06] <neuton> Jatz I followed that guide I posted here http://empireofmine.blogspot.com/2007/10/how-to-setup-web-based-bittorrent.html....however the dot is still red for transmission
[21:06] <djhash> !patience | Jatz
[21:06] <chuckmoney> unitedpotsmokers: if the issue isn't hardware (if you have a laptop it probably isn't) then there's two options.  either it can't identify the fan device, or more than likely, it's a false alarm.
[21:06] <Zikiti> Hello all
[21:06] <Gnea> scunizi: yeah - not sure how well it works with a newer cord tho
[21:06] <Zikiti> I'm new to this
[21:07] <Skrot-> n8tuser: *encryption*, not grub. / won't be mounted without it :)
[21:07] <Gnea> __mork: oh - i misunderstood
[21:07] <Jatz> ubottu: I'm well awell that people are volunteers.
[21:07] <n8tuser> Skrot--> ahh okay, yeah thats a tuff one
[21:07] <Skrot-> indeed
[21:07] <scunizi> Gnea: I'll check the bios settings to see if there's a way to make any changes to it.
[21:07] <shadewin1> I'm wondering if I should try 64-bit Ubuntu or 32-bit. I had problems with openSUSE 64-bit. no Java WebStart. any opinions?
[21:07] <chuckmoney> unitedpotsmokers: An ASUS EEE 701, for example, will not report the fan speed to Ubuntu without a custom driver that's also used to speed up or slow down the processor
[21:07] <Zikiti> I want to set up a webserver. I want to access the http doc folder via ftp. i use vsftp
[21:07] <Jatz> It's just nobody's aknowledged my existence till now
[21:07] <OddlotX4> Anyone know a terminal script to convert a .cue/.bin image files to .iso?
[21:07] <chuckmoney> unitedpotsmokers: so if you feel air comming out of the fan vent at all, it's working, and system monitor just can't read it
[21:08] <Zikiti> what is the best way to go about doing this
[21:08] <Zikiti> ?
[21:08] <dietre> shadewin1, choose 32 bit until you need more than 4 gb of ram
[21:08] <n8tuser> Skrot--> umm doesnt modprobe have a  unload and replace option? i cant recall
[21:08] <OddlotX4> Or something to mount the image.
[21:08] <KXY> what was your question Jatz? I'm no expert but I'm curious
[21:08] <robacarp> GodfatherofEire: okay.  I think you need to run the wlan0up script from the directory where the ieee80211 folder is.  eg, cd into the unpacked archive and run the script as ./wlan0up instead of putting the whole path in
[21:08] <teratoma> how do i change what xorg driver I am using ?
[21:08] <djhash> Jatz: be patient.. ask your question and wait.. if no one knows the answer no one will answer..
[21:08] <Zikiti> So9?
[21:08] <Zikiti> Any takers?
[21:08] <Gnea> Zikiti: any decent ftp server should work - proftpd or vsftpd
[21:08] <dietre> shadewin1, smaller binaries, smaller code, better cache hit ratio, ...
[21:08] <shadewin1> dietre: great, I'll do that. thanks.
[21:08] <robacarp> GodfatherofEire: if that doesn't work, and the files exist in that directory (did you check?), then the script is probably just broken.
[21:09] <dietre> shadewin1, i am not expert at it, but that are the arguments i know
[21:09] <Skrot-> n8tuser: no
[21:09] <Jatz> KXY: I'm trying to get sound to work after resume on my aspire one, as in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne#AUDIO
[21:09] <Jatz> but when I try to build alsa, it fails
[21:09] <Zikiti> understood but do I create another user to ftp into taht folder?
[21:09] <n8tuser> Skrot  like modprobe -r  ?
[21:09] <ardchoille> How do I turn off alsa permanently ?
[21:09] <Zikiti> Is there an ideal way to set up a remote webserver?
[21:09] <patmaddox> hi, I'm trying to get ubuntu set up on my macbook pro.  It's having trouble connecting to a wep-protected network...I've installed Wicd which I hoped would help, but it's not working.  It seems to get through the auth fine, tries to obtain an ip address and can't, and then is not connected.  any ideas?
[21:09] <dharanpdeepak> help me
[21:09] <GodfatherofEire> Robacarp, same message, and I checked the folder, should I check the sub-archives?
[21:09] <chuckmoney> Jatz: it sounds like you're either missing a library or don't have build-essential from apt installed
[21:09] <KXY> Hmm Jatz that does sound like a difficult one
[21:09] <Spreadsheet> hello
[21:10] <dharanpdeepak> hello
[21:10] <Sajuta> ardchoille: Not a good idea to do that. Why do you want to?
[21:10] <Spreadsheet> im not sure how i should install the firmware for my wireless card (b43)
[21:10] <Jatz> chuckmoney: m-a installs build-essentially
[21:10] <Spreadsheet> i am on Ibex
[21:10] <Spreadsheet> what should i do?
[21:10] <dharanpdeepak> i wish to contribute to ubuntu development
[21:10] <ardchoille> Sajuta: Well rebooting/shutting down causes the machine to hang at "shutting down alsa" and I don't need sound.
[21:10] <Gnea> __mork: bingo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=335780

[21:11] <rand0m> video driver problems with ATI RADEON XPRESS 200m series video card..... all sound and video is very very choppy and slow, and obv not working properly.... what do I do?  I'm a noob as of 8.04 and hardly figured that out.  ive tried following forum instructions & what not but im having no luck
[21:11] <csilk> any idea wht pbuilder would fail with this error > http://paste.ubuntu.com/69003/
[21:11] <csilk> *why
[21:11] <Spreadsheet> so should i do that in a terminal?
[21:11] <djhash> Jatz: do you get any errors other than it just failed to build?
[21:11] <BleSS> pythoneles: better question it in #linux or #bash
[21:12] <pythoneles> BleSS, alright
[21:12] <Jatz> djhash: I can view the log build file
[21:12] <chuckmoney> Jatz: well...no idea then.  I imagine if it requires another library to build it would tell you.  Many of the ubuntu docs run on the theory that you know you have to have build-essential so I was just checking.
[21:12] <gavagai> I am doing to dual boot.  First i'm going to do a fresh windows install.  Right now i am partitioning my drive.  The first partition is fat 16, 78 megs.  can i delete this or do i need to keep it?  this must be the mbr for windows i guess
[21:12] <robacarp> GodfatherofEire: no.  the script isn't looking for any archives.  I'd re-run the makedrv script (again from the local directory: ./makedrv) and make sure that it is exiting successfully and generates no errors.  You might have had a corrupt archive initially
[21:12] <djhash> Jatz: that would be a good place to start.. and if you can.. pastebin the log
[21:12] <Gnea> __mork: the sad part is, i don't see a volume_step in mine :/ but they have a lot of other things up there
[21:12] <computer> anyone? what if i have ubuntustudio-desktop and xubuntu-desktop how do i switch between them?
[21:13] <SlimeyPete> use the login manager

[21:13] <ardchoille> computer: choose the one you want at the log in screen
[21:13] <csilk> any idea why pbuilder would fail with this error > http://paste.ubuntu.com/69003/
[21:13] <SlimeyPete> there should be a menu in there which will let you chose a session
[21:13] <GodfatherofEire> Ok, robacarp, I'll try re-dl'ing it
[21:13] <BleSS> any guide to configure microphone?
[21:14] <computer> ok?
[21:14] <computer> i will try
[21:14] <fallore> i've been having a bunch of problem with sound. i had the same problems in 8.04 and still have them in 8.10. my sound, every so often and until i reboot, simply stops working. rhythmbox gives me a playback error, testing sound with the sound manager gives me an error, etc. i don't know what to do :/.
[21:14] <computer> thnx
[21:14] <rand0m> video driver problems with ATI RADEON XPRESS 200m series video card..... all sound and video is very very choppy and slow, and obv not working properly.... what do I do?  I'm a noob as of 8.04 and hardly figured that out.  ive tried following forum instructions & what not but im having no luck
[21:14] <robacarp> GodfatherofEire: yea, and if that doesn't fix it, the scripts themselves might be broken
[21:14] <Rioting_pacifist> i can write to my ntfs partition no problem and its definatly there but when i try and read it using ntfsread for does it simply doesnt show the files
[21:14] <neuton> Executable is not TorrentFlux-bundled transmissioncli...can there be a problem with this version of transmission?? I have the torrentflux-b4rt beta2 installed
[21:14] <dharanpdeepak> #ubuntu-dev
[21:14] <rand0m> fallore, : i had the same issue.. i think it's the media drivers and/or java plugins (and them conflicting with eachother)
[21:14] <chuckmoney> fallore: sounds like your sound daemon is dying and then not restarting on its own.
[21:15] <dharanpdeepak> join #ubuntu-dev
[21:15] <rand0m> i haven't found a fix
[21:15] <Jatz> djhash: http://paste.ubuntu.com/69005/ the end of it
[21:15] <__mork> Gnea: I do have a volume_step but killing and restarting gnome_settings_daemon don't do anything
[21:15] <chuckmoney> fallore: check to see (while it's working) if you have alsa, pulseaudio, or esd running, then when it dies, check to see if that process is still running
[21:15] <Rioting_pacifist> fallore: its either puseaudio or alsa
[21:15] <awakebyjava> hello everyone
[21:15] <awakebyjava> i have a problem
[21:15] <rand0m> FUCK UBUNTU!  NOTHING BUT FUCKING PROBLEMS WITH SIMPLE SHIT!
[21:15] <fallore> chuckmoney: should i restart my computer to see if it's working?
[21:16] <dietre> lol
[21:16] <chuckmoney> fallore: if it's not still running, you can run something like /etc/init.d/alsa restart and it will work again
[21:16] <djhash> Jatz: the entire thing would be more helpful.. that is not helpful
[21:16] <awakebyjava> my problem has to do with the cdrom on install
[21:16] <djhash> !wtf | rand0
[21:16] <djhash> random: ^
[21:16] <fallore> chuckmoney: no such dir
[21:16] <Grey_Loki> djhash, too late with the tab ;)
[21:16] <chuckmoney> fallore: yeah, restart it now and see which of those three processes is running, then wait until your sound dies and see which process goes away
[21:16] <neuton> Executable is not TorrentFlux-bundled transmissioncli...can there be a problem with this version of transmission?? I have the torrentflux-b4rt beta2 installed??
[21:16] <fallore> k brb chuckmoney. i'm probably going to need more help :/
[21:16] <chuckmoney> np
[21:17] <djhash> Grey_Loki: yeah.. no wonder i even got the second one wrong..lol
[21:17] <Rioting_pacifist> hmm and to think i was fairly sure i could solve randoms problem
[21:17] <djhash> !lol | djhash
[21:17] <awakebyjava> i am using the xubuntu alternate install cd, and it hangs on detecting and mounting the cdrom
[21:17] <csilk> any idea why pbuilder would fail with this error > http://paste.ubuntu.com/69003/
[21:17] <Jatz> djhash: it's in curses, I can't copy it all XD
[21:17] <awakebyjava> i can find the cd-rom drive using dmesg | grep -i cd-rom
[21:17] <__mork> Gnea: it could turn out that is a xorg issue... in /apps/gnome-settings-daemon/keybindings/volume_down the value is XF86AudioLowerVolume
[21:18] <patmaddox> anyone here been able to get a macbook pro to connect to a wep-protected wireless network?  I can connect to one that's not protected fine, but as soon as there's encryption it fails
[21:18] <awakebyjava> it has taken me to the main menu, and i have access a shell from there
[21:18] <neuton> anyone have any ideas on the transmission error?
[21:18] <awakebyjava> as it has not installed i dont have access to many commands, but i can do a few things, like find info on the drive
[21:18] <Gnea> __mork: i'm really not sure at this point... and I have to get going
[21:18] <Rioting_pacifist> awakebyjava: im not familliar with the problem all i know is that the alternate cd uses the debian installer so poking around debain mailing lists may get you an answere faster than the *buntu forums
[21:19] <csilk> any idea why pbuilder would fail with this error > http://paste.ubuntu.com/69003/
[21:19] <intheloopback> hi!
[21:19] <awakebyjava> rioting_pacifist: thank you, i will try that
[21:19] <Grey_Loki> !repeat | csilk
[21:19] <fallore> chuckmoney: okay, rebooted and sound is working
[21:19] <neuton> Executable is not TorrentFlux-bundled transmissioncli...can there be a problem with this version of transmission?? I have the torrentflux-b4rt beta2 installed??
[21:20] <chris1> neuton.. use 2.3
[21:20] <Rioting_pacifist> csilk: do you have chroot working
[21:20] <__mork> Gnea: thanks ! bye!
[21:21] <chuckmoney> fallore: ok, good, now you need to load a terminal
[21:21] <fallore> chuckmoney: done
[21:21] <Rioting_pacifist> and are you running it as root (or used setuid on chroot to get it runnable by a normal user)
[21:21] <neuton> chris1 2.3 of which package? and how do I make sure I can get it?
[21:21] <fallore> chuckmoney: i also checked my processes and pulseaudio is running, is that what you wanted to know?
[21:21] <robacarp> Jordan_U: funny...I pulled in the generic kernel and rebooted to load it and all it says is "Your hardware does not need any restricted drivers" .... curiosity killed the cat
[21:22] <Jordan_U> robacarp: :)
[21:22] <chuckmoney> fallore: yes
[21:22] <Rioting_pacifist> patmaddox: what wireless card do macbooks use? i think wep is handeled fairly well, if you know enough you could try manually connecting using iwconfig (after killing NetworkManager) to see if its a networkmanager problem
[21:22] <djhash> Jatz: "pastebinit < logfile"
[21:22] <think_linux> does anyone use backtrack here?
[21:22] <fallore> chuckmoney: cool :] so what do i do from here to insure that my problem doesn't continue?
[21:23] <chuckmoney> fallore: now, whenever your sound dies again, check to see if pulseaudio is still running
[21:23] <fallore> chuckmoney: do you know what i should do if it is or isnt'?
[21:23] <robacarp> Jordan_U: see...I was sure I had an ATI card in this machine. turns out its just an intel integrated thingy
[21:23] <ronhalfdanr> anyone know how to diagnose wehat's wrong with file browser?
[21:23] <djhash> Jatz: you might need to "sudo apt-get install pastebinit"
[21:23] <chuckmoney> fallore: and if it's not running, you have your problem, and you'll need to uninstall then reinstall the various pulseaudio packages
[21:23] <Jordan_U> patmaddox: My macbook pro works fine with WEP and WPA
[21:23] <uman3> Hi. i just updated to ubuntu 8.10 using the alternate install cd and when i click on the top right corner of the screen to change users, i noticed a strange user which i never created called "qos". is this normal? i mean there is also a new guest account which is new but i know thats supposed to be there. what about a user called "qos"? thanks
[21:24] <dietre> ronhalfdanr, with which? and whats the problem?
[21:24] <fallore> chuckmoney: it seems like if that would fix it then updating from 8.04 to 8.10 would have fixed it
[21:24] <chuckmoney> fallore: if your sound dies and it is still running, then the sound daemon you're using is something else and pulseaudio is just sitting there being worthless
[21:24] <patmaddox> Jordan_U: hrm, mine doesn't :)  I have no clue how to go about diagnosing it.  I've googled a bunch but haven't found something that works so far
[21:24] <BleSS> any guide to configure microphone?
[21:24] <awakebyjava> well, i am not getting anywhere with the debian stuff, so does anyone else have an idea?
[21:24] <ronhalfdanr> dietre: 8.1, file browser freezes ate root, home and user folders
[21:24] <neuton> chris1 2.3 of which package? and how do I make sure I can get it?
[21:24] <Jordan_U> patmaddox: What model macbook pro?
[21:24] <patmaddox> it's kind of surprising because everything else seems to work okay...the sound and video is fine, the special keys (volume & brightness adjust are okay)
[21:25] <uman3> how do i install nvidia drivers on 8.10? i got a prompt to do so the first time i booted into u 8.10 but couldnt download them cuz i had no itnernet. thanks
[21:25] <patmaddox> Jordan_U: 17", I think it's v2.1
[21:25] <fallore> chuckmoney: is it insightful to know that when my sound died last i tried the different sound options (alsa, oss, pulseaudio) in the preferences > sound tab and all of them gave me errors and none worked?
[21:25] <gamesiano> somebody knows sites with free hosting that offers free shell accounts with space?
[21:25] <uman3>  Hi. i just updated to ubuntu 8.10 using the alternate install cd and when i click on the top right corner of the screen to change users, i noticed a strange user which i never created called "qos". is this normal? i mean there is also a new guest account which is new but i know thats supposed to be there. what about a user called "qos"? thanks
[21:25] <chuckmoney> fallore: somewhat.  the issue might be a problem with your actual soundcard.  is the system a desktop or a laptop?
[21:25] <dietre> ronhalfdanr, do you mean nautilus?
[21:25] <fallore> uman3: it seems as if quantum of solace has taken over your computer.
[21:26] <fallore> chuckmoney: desktop. i think it's onboard sound, as well.
[21:26] <uman3> hehe, no , seriously can anyone help me fallore
[21:26] <fallore> uman3: i'm sure someone can but i can't 8-)
[21:26] <ronhalfdanr> dietre:  nautilus and the places tab on the top bar both freeze

[21:26] <shadewin1> how much would I need for the root partition?
[21:27] <scunizi> Gnea: looks like my motherboard booting issue was due to the kernel in 8.04.. Boots fine to 8.10 but with LARGE graphics.. usable though.
[21:27] <chuckmoney> fallore: well...ok, do you have a motherboard backplate installed or is there blank space in the back of the case around the ports?  I'm thinking maybe the connected has been jittered loose.
[21:27] <Rioting_pacifist> shadewin1: it depends how much stuff you plan on installing
[21:27] <neuton> Executable is not TorrentFlux-bundled transmissioncli...can there be a problem with this version of transmission?? I have the torrentflux-b4rt beta2 installed??
[21:27] <Pelo> uman3, guest account is notghing to worry about , it's a new thing so ppl who visite you can go on the internet and stuff without password,  qos , I don't know about
[21:27] <Jordan_U> patmaddox: What version of Ubuntu?
[21:27] <fallore> chuckmoney: wouldn't this happen in windows too if that was the case?
[21:27] <shadewin1> Rioting_pacifist: not too much
[21:27] <evilspawn4> hey guys whenever i try to open my cd rom drive it closes on me is there anyway to fix that? because ive screwed up several cds forgetting it did that
[21:27] <Pelo> uman3,  if qos bothers you , just go in system > admin > users and delete it
[21:27] <shadewin1> Rioting_pacifist: I'm using LVM so i'm not fucked if it's too little
[21:28] <Flannel> shadewin1: Please watch your language.
[21:28] <chuckmoney> fallore: indeed it would, but if you still have alsa/oss/esd/pulseaudio when your sound dies, the issue isn't anything specific to linux either, thus points to hardware
[21:28] <Rioting_pacifist> shadewin1: well i have hardy running using 5.6G but ive had it fill up the whole 6G before

[21:29] <brmj> I am also having trouble with the proprietary nvidia drivers in 8.10. The logs say the nvidia kernel module fails to load. Any suggestions?
[21:29] <Rioting_pacifist> shadewin1: yes, i doubt it could get above 10G with normal use
[21:29] <Pelo> shadewin1, yes,   I use 10 gig for / and I have a lot of room to spare
[21:30] <actionfigure_> ubottu, ok
[21:30] <ronhalfdanr> got me dietre but if I can't fix it so I can try to get into some folders and get two major apps runnign I won;t be long for ubuntu because dual boot is too inefficient
[21:30] <shadewin1> because I'm just going to have /home and root
[21:30] <pw-toxic> hi, is there a reason not to install 64bit ubuntu if you have an amd64 ?
[21:30] <fallore> chuckmoney: alright. thanks for your help, i'll check to see if it's running next time my sound dies. thanks for your help
[21:30] <actionfigure_> Question: I installed Ubuntu but when i restart the computer it shuts itself off
[21:30] <Jatz> djhash: yeah, sorry
[21:30] <Pelo> shadewin1, you'll need  a swap as well,  mine is  10 gig for / , 2x ram for swap and the rest for /home
[21:30] <actionfigure_> it wont even load at all.....
[21:31] <shadewin1> Pelo: I know, I didn't mention it just
[21:31] <chuckmoney> fallore: if it happens before maybe 10PM tonight stop back in here and I may help you more
[21:31] <^Cheeky> hello iam trying to convert MKV format to .. .m2ts file format .. and i have a hard time trying to use ffmpeg to do this can ant one please help me ?
[21:31] <Pelo> actionfigure_,  try the .169 one instead of the .177
[21:31] <evilspawn4> does anyone know how i can keep my cd rom from closing when i try to pull a disk out?
[21:31] <dietre> ronhalfdanr, sorry, i cannot follow you... (?)
[21:31] <Rioting_pacifist> 2x ram is outdated, more than 1G swap is pointless
[21:31] <actionfigure_> Pelo, i dont understand
[21:31] <Pelo> ^Cheeky,  you can probably do it in avidemux
[21:31] <Flannel> Rioting_pacifist: Unless you intend to hibernate.
[21:32] <russ> woohooo!! got the creative driver working on my system :) so f**ing happy
[21:32] <^Cheeky> Pelo, never use that .. is int in apt-get ?
[21:32] <dietre> Rioting_pacifist, depends on, i think... some use tmpfs and want to much files in there to get into swap
[21:32] <Pelo> actionfigure_, you're the one with the nvidia driver that fails to load ? use the restricted driver from the  admin menu,  if the .177 doesn't work for you  try the .169
[21:32] <ronhalfdanr> dietre: in other words, if I cannot after more than a week find a way to diagnose and fix the problem so I can try to get to major win apps running then I will drop ubuntu and go back to XP much as I loathe it because I need to actually get work done
[21:32] <Flannel> !language | russ
[21:32] <brmj> evilspawn4: I think I saw something about that in the 8.10 release notes.
[21:32] <Pelo> ^Cheeky, yes
[21:32] <Rioting_pacifist> Flannel: you still only need 1x ram if your doing that
[21:32] <russ> So sorry
[21:33] <Rioting_pacifist> dietre: surely using >1GB of swap will slow the computer to be unusable anyway
[21:33] <evilspawn4> brmj: ok thanks ill go check that out (btw am i makeing the red text right?)
[21:33] <Pelo> ^Cheeky, at least you might be able to get it from mkv to some more managable formant like mpeg or some such
[21:33] <^Cheeky> Pelo, avidemux - a free video editor - gtk version ?
[21:33] <chuckmoney> shadewin1: FYI my EEE 901 had / on a 4GB drive and I only use 77% of that with a very large set of apps in GNOME.  the only thing not in that 4GB is /home, so yes, 10GB is plenty so long as /home is elsewhere for any modern *NIX system.
[21:33] <actionfigure_> Pelo, but it wont load at all....i did a fresh install...then it wants to restart but thats where it shutsoff
[21:33] <dietre> ronhalfdanr, i am sorry, that i cannot help....

[21:34] <Pelo> actionfigure_, which is why I 'm suggestion you try the previous one , but if you need to get rid of the current one so you can boot,   boot the recovery mode and use the fix x option

[21:34] <Rioting_pacifist> my computer was completely screwed this morning, but now it just works, is there a way to test all my hardware from within linux, or should i use the UBCD to test it bit by bit?
[21:35] <ronhalfdanr> I mean I can live without games, wifi and a few other things but something as basic as being able to manipulate my files needs to work and work 100%

[21:35] <Pelo> ^Cheeky, I'M not that familiar with all the ins and outs of video format , you'll have to figure that part out on your own
[21:35] <Jatz> that should be the whole log
[21:35] <actionfigure_> Pelo, thats beyond my understanding.... i dont see how i can choose my driver if ubuntu does that for me ...and since i cant log in at all..
[21:35] <dietre> ronhalfdanr, it does, normally also with nautilus. at least with a shell
[21:35] <Rioting_pacifist> i can write to my ntfs partition no problem and its definatly there but when i try and read it using ntfsread for does it simply doesnt show the files

[21:38] <uman3> jordan_U  i tried that, but it just says searching for drivers, and stays there forever
[21:38] <djhash> Jatz: where did you get the instructions from.. seems like something wrong with that source code
[21:38] <Pelo> actionfigure_, fix x tries to fix the xorg.conf file so you can boot , you might not always want to do that , there may be other thing you might want to try,  you might not always want the comp to mess us your xorg.conf file automaticaly

[21:40] <wng-> Is anyone aware of any PCI-E sound cards that work w/ Linux
[21:40] <neuton> thats what the error says in torrentflux-b4rt
[21:40] <russ> wng: creative is now supported
[21:40] <Pelo> wng-, might want to ask in #hardware
[21:40] <wng-> russ: Creative doesn't make too many PCI-E cards actually, and the ones they do make aren't supported
[21:40] <wng-> Pelo: thanks, will do
[21:41] <russ> wng: my x -fi extrreme game card is now working with the new driver
[21:41] <neuton> I have the client pointed to /usr/bin/transmissioncli...and I get that error..I also have torrentflux-b4rt beta2 installed
[21:41] <wng-> russ: is it PCI-E or PCI? I thought extreme-gamer is only PCI
[21:41] <russ> wng: I could be wrong
[21:42] <wng-> I think the only X-fi thats PCI-E is Xtreme Audio which _does not_ work with the new drivers
[21:42] <Chlorate> When I try to connect to a password protected wi fi network it prompts me to type in my keyring password. What does that mean?
[21:42] <computer> what is the uninstall command in ubuntu? apt-get uninstall?

[21:42] <computer> thnx
[21:42] <wng-> pw-: updating my kernel did it for me
[21:42] <Jordan_U> Chlorate: That means that you have already connected to that network before and the password has been saved to your keyring
[21:43] <pw-> wng-, my kernel's at the latest version
[21:43] <Jatz> djhash: anything wrong with it?
[21:43] <wng-> pw-: have you updated alsa
[21:43] <wng-> ?
[21:43] <pw-> wng-, matter of fact, i think that's what broke it
[21:43] <pw-> wng-, well, i uninstalled and reinstalled it
[21:43] <pantcho> Hi guys, Installed ubuntu! was great but i have nvidia card so i added the unsupported driver and all worked fine. then i rebooted and i get this weird msg that X can't load the error is "Fatal server error:no screens found" how can i remove the nvidia device manually ? thank you.

[21:44] <brmj> I'm having trouble getting nvidia's proprietary drivers working. On my system, only the failsafe graphics work.

I have also followed a quite a few random sets of instructions from the internet, also to no effect. This is a 9500 m  chip. Any suggestions?
[21:44] <djhash> Jatz: there are links in there to forums and such.. looks like the code was updated and fixed mid october.. check the forum links on that page.. maybe you'll find something there.. sorry.. but the problem is from the source code.. and I can't help you there.. check out the forums.. there has to be something there..
[21:44] <pw-> wng-, i'll try that
[21:44] <vitamin-carrot> quick question
[21:45] <neuton> I need to go out for a bit sry, please leave me a pm with any answers :)
[21:45] <herrmess> pantcho: You might have a problem with the xorg.conf file that prevents X from loading. Try removing the RgbPath line, it worked for me.
[21:45] <vitamin-carrot> name a vm app that allows the use of compiz while the client is running

[21:46] <herrmess> pantcho: This is the only line that I needed to remove. I also had the "failed to find screen" message on reboot.

[21:51] <djhash> junglist313: hmm. what's the medibuntu deb line in sources.list

[22:07] <crimsun> vonderer: another possibility is to request a backport from jaunty, which has 1.1.1
[22:08] <vonderer> thanks
[22:08] <xiaou> hey crim
[22:08] <sken> i found something in google but i didn't understand
[22:08] <crimsun> csilk: what versions of pbuilder and debootstrap are you using?
[22:08] <sken> it was weird
[22:08] <crimsun> xiaou: hi

[22:09] <csilk> crimsun,  strange thing is, this worked on another one of my machines, identical setup minus the hardware
[22:09] <Flannel> maxxist: You'll need to contact a staffer
[22:09] <robacarp> maxxist: I think that if you /msg nickserv help it will  tell you
[22:09] <crimsun> csilk: make sure that you're using pbuilder and debootstrap from intrepid-backports
[22:10] <maxxist> robacarp i tried the help.  it didnt tell me

[22:12] <ghindo__> Hi.  My laptop keeps experiencing what I suspect to be a kernel panic; everything freezes up and the caps/scroll lock lights start blinking.  Does anybody have any ideas?
[22:13] <sidney> the desktop?
[22:13] <sken> yes
[22:13] <Flannel> sidney: the splash screen you get when you boot (with the little bar that goes back and forth)
[22:13] <sidney> it was blue
[22:14] <JAVAj3d1> hello
[22:14] <Flannel> sidney: And you have the menu for your applications in the bottom left, correct?
[22:14] <crimsun> csilk: I think it'll be easier if you cp /usr/share/doc/pbuilder/examples/pbuilder-distribution.sh ~/pbuilder-intrepid && mkdir -p ~/pbuilder/result && ~/pbuilder-intrepid create --components "main restricted universe multiverse"
[22:14] <sidney> no on top

[22:15] <partymetroid> Hello.  I'm trying to install Ubuntu, but Ubiquity hangs at 12% while starting up the partitioner.
[22:15] <partymetroid> :)
[22:15] <csilk> crimsun, I don't see why I would need to do that, I'ce built intrepid environemnts several times on intrepid with no problems or need to deviate fdomr default behaviour/config
[22:16] <crimsun> csilk: I.e., much of the work that you're attempting to accomplish via --othermirror is subsumed in --components
[22:16] <sken> can any body  explain me that error?
[22:16] <sken> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6125708
[22:16] <csilk> crimsun, ok ignore that for a while, even if I just do sudo pbuilder create I get the same error
[22:16] <sken> i don't quite understand it
[22:16] <sken> huh?
[22:16] <sidney> yes but the icon is orange
[22:16] <pantcho> Hello again, i have nvidia card, downloaded NVTV and nvidia-xconfig, restarted and i get error on xorg.conf - "no drivers available"

[22:16] <sken> so you have kde
[22:17] <crimsun> csilk: do you have anything using bindmount?
[22:17] <Flannel> sidney: you have Gnome
[22:17] <csilk> crimsun, not as far as I'm aware
[22:17] <sidney> thanks
[22:17] <sken> no sidney you have kde
[22:17] <crimsun> csilk: also, is the error repeatable if you telinit 1, then telinit 2?  (drop to single then resume multiuser)

[22:18] <crimsun> sidney: can you open a Konsole, then type: asoundconf list
[22:18] <Flannel> sken: Please stop repeating.  Wait 20-30 minutes before repeating.
[22:18] <crimsun> sidney: then tell me what is returned?
[22:19] <NemesisD> so is it pretty safe to upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 now?

[22:20] <sidney> yes
[22:20] <sysdoc> Whew vmware up and running.. Thanks for all the help guys!!
[22:20] <crimsun> Flannel: ok (conversation tracked from #kubuntu where the question originated)
[22:21] <crimsun> sidney: ok, we need to do two things: firstly, set the audigy as the default using a module configuration, and secondly, reboot
[22:21] <deftone> Looking to buy the HP DV5-1125NR and it's got the ATI RADEON HD 3200 graphics RS780M. Does anyone know if Ubuntu Hardy supports this chip??

[22:21] <sidney> ok
[22:21] <Flannel> sken: Please wait 20-30 minutes before repeating.  This is your last warning.
[22:22] <crimsun> sidney: what does the command `cat /proc/asound/modules' give you?
[22:22] <fisk0> my ubuntu 8.10 seem to forget which resolution I've set (and even which resolutions my video card/monitor support) every time I reboot. Now I can't choose anything but 320x200 and 640x480
[22:22] <sken> flannel please see my link eand explain me because i didn't understand what to do

[22:23] <Flannel> sken: You need to wait, no one who is active right now knows the answer.  Repeating the question doesn't help.
[22:23] <csilk> crimsun, no joy

[22:24] <sken> re paidia ellinass ellada
[22:24] <sidney>  1 snd_emu10k1
[22:24] <crimsun> sidney: ok, so you need this entire line verbatim: echo options snd slots=snd-emu10k1,snd-via82xx|sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
[22:24] <crimsun> sidney: after you copy and paste that line into Terminal, you should receive the following line: "echo options snd slots=snd-emu10k1,snd-via82xx"
[22:25] <woli> is there some kind of application that will download files for me from a given url?
[22:25] <skorasaurus> wget
[22:25] <crimsun> sidney: after that, you may log out and/or reboot
[22:25] <woli> that is not an internet browser as well
[22:25] <woli> ah nice..
[22:25] <crimsun> sidney: I recommend that you reboot
[22:25] <woli> skorasaurus: one that may be paused?
[22:25] <skorasaurus> is that what you're looking for ?
[22:25] <sidney> it returned options snd slots=snd-emu10k1,snd-via82xx
[22:25] <skorasaurus> woli, im pretty sure you can pause it.
[22:25] <crimsun> sidney: yes, that's correct
[22:25] <skorasaurus> not positive.
[22:25] <skorasaurus> woli, try curl as well.
[22:25] <woli> skorasaurus: how?
[22:25] <sidney> BRB thanks
[22:26] <skorasaurus> woli, it's a command line program, you use it in the terminal.
[22:26] <crimsun> csilk: ok, same command gives identical error?
[22:26] <woli> skorasaurus: that is the reason for which i doubted it was pausable
[22:26] <csilk> crimsun, yes
[22:26] <hlfshell> I'm getting an error message when trying to "sudo make" something - it says it can not find lcurses. Anyone have any idea on this one?
[22:26] <skorasaurus> woli, i dont think it would make a different
[22:26] <skorasaurus> difference*
[22:26] <csilk> crimsun, it's the create command regardless of what comes after, that is where the issue is
[22:26] <ay^> hlfshell: do you have anything called lcurses installed?
[22:26] <woli> skorasaurus: do you know of some gtk for wget?
[22:27] <Hentay> !login
[22:27] <pantcho> anyone can help me with suggestions on how to edit xorg.conf, i updated the system to use nvidia drivers and now it can not load the X
[22:27] <skorasaurus> woli, if you go to the package manager and enter in 'wget' ; you may find one.
[22:27] <hlfshell> no - but i cant find a package for it ay^
[22:27] <fisk0> I'll try rebooting a couple of times more. The entire system seem to be breaking down
[22:27] <skorasaurus> i dont know one off hand.
[22:27] <hlfshell> any idea which package to look for ay^ ?
[22:27] <fisk0> pantcho: sounds like a problem similar to mine
[22:27] <kenokabe> hi List,  Is there anyway to add animation effect without compiz fusion?
[22:27] <icqnumber> !mp3
[22:27] <ay^> hlfshell: mkay perhaps there is no package and you need to compile on yourself
[22:27] <ay^> hlfshell: I could check
[22:27] <dustrial> hi again, i removed kdm4, now kdm is not starting  and i have to login into a non-gui shell

[22:27] <hlfshell> if you can figure out what package ay^  that'd be great-  i tried looking and cant find any so far
[22:27] <usuario__> ñ
[22:28] <pantcho> fisk0: i am a total linux newbie
[22:28] <fisk0> pantcho: yeah, I got that once, then I got into some strange loop about creating new default settings and  ever since the second boot  it can't stick with the screen resolution I want
[22:28] <woli> skorasaurus: thanks, i found gwget
[22:29] <csilk> crimsun, it must be a config or conflict issue of some sort as I have created an intrepid pbuilt environment on an indentical machine the day intrepid was released
[22:29] <ay^> hlfshell: found this mail-list
[22:29] <ay^> hlfshell: http://osdir.com/ml/linux.lfs.support/2003-02/msg00163.html
[22:29] <skorasaurus> woli, welcome.
[22:29] <crimsun> csilk: do you have additional apparmor or selinux profiles enabled?
[22:29] <pantcho> fisk0: how can i create new default settings?
[22:29] <fisk0> pantcho: me too. Pretty annoying when stuff breaks and you have no idea of why it breaks or what to do about it
[22:29] <Fiberchunks> does anyone know a way to convert .swf to .avi (or any other sane, non-proprietary format?)
[22:29] <Hentay> can anyone tell me how could i login to my router using gnome-terminal, or maybe where i can find more information?
[22:29] <hlfshell> ok testingg it now - thanks ay^  :-D
[22:29] <ay^> hlfshell: so you probably just need to install libncurses or something
[22:29] <csilk> crimsun, no, this is a default intrepid install in every sense of the word
[22:30] <csilk> with latest updates
[22:30] <fisk0> pantcho: I don't know, after a couple of reboots I got a menu with the options to load generic settings, create new default settings and something more. but that menu just keep repeating whenever I choose something
[22:30] <hlfshell> i think that did it ay^ , Thanks!
[22:30] <crimsun> csilk: ok, sanity-check: do you at least 100 MB free in /var/cache ?
[22:30] <usuario__> hola!
[22:30] <fisk0> and now the system is slowing down to a crawl
[22:30] <ay^> hlfshell: np! :)
[22:30] <Hentay> can anyone tell me how could i login to my router using gnome-terminal, or maybe where i can find more information?
[22:31] <dustrial> hi, so i put the question like this: when KDM is a system-service, where is the line, that actually says /usr/bin/kdm
[22:31] <Pirate_Hunter> can someone help me with my network i cant seem to connect to the internet at all tried creating a static ip but it is not being found in ifconfig, what could be wrong (followed this tut http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html)?
[22:31] <csilk> crimsun, /var/cache has a few gig free
[22:31] <dustrial> ?
[22:31] <ay^> Hentay: thats depends on your routers login-system

[22:31] <vasilis> Question about ubuntu and vmware.I'm trying to run an ubuntu 8.04 guest in a windows xphome host using vmware player 2.5 . It installed fine, but after installing the vmware-tools package my mouse clicks do not register. The mouse pointer moves but i don't see any response with left or right click. the kernel is 2.6.24. Any ideas?
[22:31] <csilk> crimsun,  I can't see any obvious reason why it's not working, I have a totally identical setup where this works fine, after 3 days of this I'm about ready to re-install intrepid
[22:31] <crimsun> csilk: ok, another sanity-check: can you chroot into any subdirectory of /var/cache/pbuilder?
[22:32] <fisk0> pantcho: I got some help on my local ubuntu support group, I didn't work for me, but it might work for you. i'll try to dig up the terminal command
[22:32] <Hentay> ay^,  program webinteface or just via firefox?
[22:32] <Serafeim> when i plug in my headphones the sound still comes out from the speakers of my laptop
[22:32] <ay^> Hentay: via firefox
[22:33] <Hentay> ay^,  ok, then can i login to my vpn another computer?
[22:33] <geeksquad> why is my .bash_profile missing
