[06:15] <AbhiJit> help
[06:15] <AbhiJit> how to find ip address of website?
[06:15] <sacarlson> AbhiJit: ping website
[06:15] <Lanlost> I'm starting to believe it's not possible..
[06:15] <psycho_oreos> linux_is_my_hero: it seems like its mounted as hfsplus, check the last line of that mount output. The last I heard was hfsplus support under linux is somewhat flaky so I suggest you to refer to your owners manual on how to format your ipod to windows format which should then appear as fat32
[06:15] <Lanlost> AbhiJit, terminal/console -> ping www.google.com
[06:16] <AbhiJit> Lanlost, sacarlson thank you
[06:16] <Lanlost> PING www.l.google.com (<IP_ADDRESS>) 56(84) bytes of data.
[06:16] <rasa> how do I start X in failsafe mode from the command line (google is no help)
[06:16] <psycho_oreos> Samuel: you could do an ugly hack of adding that line into /etc/rc.conf which should be executed upon every boot/reboot.
[06:16] <red2kic> rasa: "startx" -- I guess
[06:16] <psycho_oreos> AbhiJit: host <website>
[06:17] <red2kic> rasa: Meh. Ubuntu is... "sudo service gdm start" <--
[06:17] <AbhiJit> psycho_oreos, yahh thanks
[06:17] <juniour>  bullgard4 i dident get u
[06:17] <psycho_oreos> ping actually pings the host unless you specify not to, host just resolves the names to IP via dns registars
[06:17] <linux_is_my_hero> anyone know how to format an ipod?
[06:17] <AbhiJit> !ipod | linux_is_my_hero
[06:17] <psycho_oreos> linux_is_my_hero: you don't have owners manual for that ipod?
[06:17] <bullgard4> juniour: What did you not get?
[06:17] <linux_is_my_hero> psycho_oreos: i didin't get a manual. its a 7th gen 160gb which looks like they had it for about 10 minutes then lost their minds and sold it to me.
[06:18] <Lanlost> linux_is_my_hero, in what sense?
[06:18] <linux_is_my_hero> psycho_oreos: its a refurb because the original hdd failed.
[06:18] <Lanlost> If it's a supported version, do what I did.. best thing I ever did with any mp3 player
[06:18] <ubuntuz> hi
[06:18] <Lanlost> install rockbox..
[06:18] <linux_is_my_hero> Lanlost: its in HFS+ format and i need it in FAT32
[06:18] <qq99> any reason copy in terminal is ctrl+shift+c?  can I change that to ctrl+c?
[06:18] <Lanlost> you can just format it like a regular drive.. install rockbox with the installer
[06:18] <juniour> bullgard4 i have installed as oftware fron ubuntu software centert but i cant that
[06:18] <qq99> oh nvm lol, stupid question
[06:18] <psycho_oreos> linux_is_my_hero: hmm well a copy of the manual can also be obtained from apple's website
[06:18] <juniour> find
[06:18] <Lanlost> linux_is_my_hero, you can just format it like a normal drive, just specify fat32
[06:19] <juniour>  that
[06:19] <Lanlost> I used gparted
[06:19] <bluezone> does anyone recall how to configure grub in order to make my secondary windows os appear in the menu, i picked ubuntu to be automatically booted accidentally
[06:19] <linux_is_my_hero> psycho_oreos: good idea :-)
[06:19] <OtterNZ> How do I go about removing the title bar on selected applications? I can only find how to do this for every window, not just certain ones (the bar that says the name of the programme, and has the minimise/maximise/close buttons)
[06:19] <linux_is_my_hero> lanlost: i thought rockbox only works up to ipod 5.5?
[06:19] <bullgard4> juniour: What is the name of the software which you have installed via Ubuntu Software Center?
[06:19] <psycho_oreos> linux_is_my_hero: iirc I'm very sure ipod allows you to format itself without needing to connect up to a computer to format the hard drive into windows format
[06:19] <Samuel> thank you psycho_oreos  I will try that and hopefully it will work
[06:19] <psycho_oreos> it should be buried inside the menus
[06:20] <guest> hi
[06:20] <rasa> is there a key combination that causes the current X session to exit back to the command line?
[06:20] <psycho_oreos> Samuel: ideally you should look into long term solution to get networkmanager to work, there should be reasons why as to networkmanager to be manually operating if ifupdown is being honoured in favour.. should be some conf files iirc
[06:20] <psycho_oreos> rasa: init 1
[06:21] <qq99> what's the best way to test my mouse for which click = which ButtonX?
[06:21] <guest> rasa, try ctrl + alt + backspace
[06:21] <qq99> I've got a logitech g500
[06:21] <psycho_oreos> qq99: maybe xev
[06:21] <Danny78_> psycho_oreos:  ASUS actually offers it's software for linux
[06:21] <qq99> psycho_oreos, I'll check that
[06:21] <qq99> where's the place where I'd change lock to meta+L vs. ctrl+alt+L?
[06:21] <psycho_oreos> Danny78_: I meant in terms of BIOS flashing, I know Gigabyte didn't they only had DOS flasher tools
[06:21] <juniour> bullgard i think that was video convertor
[06:22] <psycho_oreos> qq99: I think its the same place
[06:22] <ubuntuz> I've an HDD with raid 0 and Ubuntu 10.10 fresh install, I'm trying to install burg on MBR: /usr/sbin/burg-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/mapper/isw_cahajbcdji_ARRAY05.  Check your device.map. In /etc/fstab only I've /dev/mapper/isw_cahajbcdji_ARRAY05/ so when I try burg-install /dev/sde fails. What should I do?
[06:22] <psycho_oreos> qq99: err wait my bad no, key bindings inside gnome somewhere
[06:22] <Drahx_> Hmm, I keep getting a black screen after the initial loading screen when booting from Thumb drive to install Ubuntu Desktop version
[06:22] <rasa> guest: nada
[06:23] <rasa> getting ubuntu to work on a w701ds totally sucks
[06:23] <guest> rasa, didn't it work ?
[06:23] <rasa> fedora and windows run fine, ubuntu sucks ass
[06:23] <psycho_oreos> Drahx_: that could be ACPI issue, you might want to try appending noacpi into boot line
[06:23] <rasa> no
[06:23] <Drahx_> how can I do that?
[06:24] <fermulator> ubuntuz: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8643812&postcount=40
[06:24] <rasa> i've spent *all day* on this, what a total waste of time
[06:24] <fermulator> ubuntuz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MasterBootLoader
[06:24] <ison> good day
[06:24] <Samuel> psycho_oreos: Well I just attempted it and it did not fix the issue I still have to login and issue the command manually I added it to /etc/init/rc.conf   so I guess I do have to search for another solution :)
[06:24] <fermulator> ubuntuz: basically, you need to tell grub about the "fake raid" device
[06:24] <psycho_oreos> Drahx_: when you boot into USB, normally you get that splash screen with all the boot options right? you just hit install but before hitting enter you hit tab or something to edit the line and you hit End key.. then you type in noacpi and then hit enter
[06:24] <bluezone> where can i get my hands on the latest kernel
[06:24] <Danny78_> psycho_oreos:  I'm confused.  Do I still boot the ubuntu computer from a flash drive with freedos to upgrade the bios?
[06:25] <fermulator> ubuntuz: specifically, this line is of interest to you: "grub> device (hd0) /dev/mapper/isw_beeaakeeaa_five"
[06:25] <Drahx_> I I'm not even getting to the splash screen
[06:25] <psycho_oreos> Samuel: the /etc/rc.conf file is not honoured, maybe execute permissions or its not set
[06:25] <Lanlost> so..
[06:25] <juniour> bullgard4 can u suggest me any good video convertor
[06:25] <Lanlost> has no one here ever recorded their output before?
[06:25] <bullgard4> juniour: "video converter" is no Ubuntu name of a software downloadable. "video converter" is a generic name. What is the special name of the software (package) which you have downloaded using the Ubuntu Software Center?
[06:25] <ubuntuz> thx, let me see
[06:25] <Drahx_> I have no issue on the server version though
[06:25] <Lanlost> I'm talking as simple as.. playing a video on youtube and recording the audio.. you know.. analog hole
[06:26] <Danny78_> psycho_oreos:  the flash utility is an .exe, so I'm assuming the answer is yes
[06:26] <noroot> does ne1 know anything about putting ubuntu on an ipod touch?
[06:26] <Drahx_> What are the chances that the "Startup disk creator" messed up?
[06:26] <bullgard4> juniour: What do you want to convert in your video?
[06:26] <juniour> bullgurrd4 i cant rember name
[06:26] <juniour> ya
[06:26] <qq99> gwah, in xev each of my buttons are different things... rarely are they actually button events
[06:26] <linux_is_my_hero> psycho_oreos: if you don't mind me asking, where'd you get ur handle from?
[06:26] <iDope> I installed sensors-applet via apt but am still not seeing in the add to panel list (Hardware Sensors is not listed). How do I get the sensors applet working?
[06:26] <rasa> in recovery mode, the failsafe option fails to run X, but simple returns to the menu, not very failsafe is it!!!!!
[06:26] <juniour> it sound like men coder or decoder
[06:26] <juniour> i think so
[06:27] <psycho_oreos> Danny78_: no, you need to find out how does the flasher works, if the flasher is windows only tool (which means that it has GUI) you cannot use freeDOS. If the flasher tool is DOS based you can use FreeDOS to flash the BIOS which can be done either by burning a copy of freeDOS onto CD or using USB in addition with grub4dos. Otherwise if they have linux flasher tool, then I use that by all means
[06:27] <juniour> but i am in confusion
[06:27] <bluezone> where can i get my hands on the latest kernel?
[06:27] <psycho_oreos> linux_is_my_hero: secret :)
[06:27] <ubuntuz> um, # sudo fdisk -l --> can not look in /dev/sde
[06:27] <bullgard4> juniour: Ok, you cannot remember the name of the converter.  But in this case it is difficult to help you.
[06:27] <juniour> bullgurd suggest me any good convertor
[06:27] <sam-_-> psycho_oreos, have you ever seen a linux flasher tool? which manufacturer?
[06:28] <noroot> is there an ipod room on irc
[06:28] <psycho_oreos> bluezone: usually from ubuntu repositories. Otherwise you can get them from kernel.org but I would advise against that unless you know what you are doing and you are prepared to clean up any mess
[06:28] <OtterNZ> How do I go about removing the title bar on selected applications? I can only find how to do this for every window, not just certain ones (the bar that says the name of the programme, and has the minimise/maximise/close buttons)
[06:28] <iDope> I installed sensors-applet via apt but am still not seeing in the add to panel list (Hardware Sensors is not listed). How do I get the sensors applet working?
[06:28] <psycho_oreos> sam-_-: haven't seen any but according to Danny78_ he said ASUS provides linux tools. I do not know offhand if he refers to a flasher tool or some other thing like drivers for linux
[06:28] <fermulator> ubuntuz: uhh ... that's weird. it actually says "can not look in" ?
[06:29] <bullgard4> juniour: I am no expert. From the name, use "ubuntustudio-video".
[06:29] <ravibn> Hi!
[06:29] <bluezone> psycho_oreos, i recall an ftp hosted by ubuntu
[06:29] <psycho_oreos> noroot: there's apple room.. iirc its ##apple
[06:29] <noroot> ok ty
[06:29] <ravibn> my webcam (frontech e-cam JIL2214) is not working after installing 10.1
[06:30] <iDope> anyone??? help with sensors-applet?
[06:30] <linux_is_my_hero> my ipod is read-only, please help.
[06:30] <sam-_-> psycho_oreos, don't forget: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[06:30] <linux_is_my_hero> ipod manual doesn't tell me how to format this thing at all...
[06:30] <psycho_oreos> sam-_-: you should be directing that to bluezone :)
[06:30] <bullgard4> iDope: You better put a more specific question here in this channel.
[06:30] <sam-_-> psycho_oreos, he knows :-)
[06:30] <bluezone> yeah but i forgot :(
[06:31] <psycho_oreos> sam-_-: well there you go, from the horse's mouth
[06:31] <iDope> (3rd time im pasting this)I installed sensors-applet via apt but am still not seeing in the add to panel list (Hardware Sensors is not listed). How do I get the sensors applet working?
[06:31] <bluezone> yep
[06:31] <psycho_oreos> s/horse\'s/horses/
[06:31] <ravibn> my webcam (frontech e-cam JIL2214) is not working after installing 10.10 anyone pl help
[06:31] <sam-_-> iDope, did you log out then back in again? (not sure if it will help)
[06:32] <bluezone> ill bookmark it this time
[06:32] <bluezone> :)
[06:32] <psycho_oreos> linux_is_my_hero: you sure apple's ipod manual from apple's website does not detail how to format ipod? I'd try googling for answers
[06:32] <iDope> sam-_-: I shouldn't really need to do that but I guess you are right maybe gnome will update the list when i log in again
[06:35] <vivaldi> щЩшШЧчяЯЮ
[06:35] <lucaluca> hi
[06:36] <ubuntuz> weird warn: http://pastebin.com/ffdM9BZn what's flexnet related on ubuntu 10.10?
[06:36] <sam-_-> vivaldi, i don't speak vietnamese and i don't think there is a vietnamese channel
[06:37] <bazhang> !vn
[06:37] <insmod> is there a fix to bug #606377 in lm-sensors my install of 10.10 runs the laptop really hot!
[06:37] <jon8> the code name, 'hardy' is what version of ubuntu??
[06:37] <roscoe> How do i check my computers specs using ubuntu 10.04? is there a way to do it other then terminal?
[06:37] <bazhang> jon8, 8.04
[06:37] <sam-_-> bazhang, oh cool. well there seems to be a channel for everyone :-)
[06:37] <jon8> bazhang thank you.
[06:37] <bazhang> roscoe, sudo lshw
[06:38] <ravibn> my webcam (frontech e-cam JIL2214) is not working after installing 10.10 anyone pl help
[06:38] <bullgard4> How can I persuade Firefox 3.6.13 to show 20 names of the recently visited web pages instead of 10?
[06:38] <jon8> bazhang i want to install 'bijk', but the instructions on their website only have, hardy, intrepid, jaunty, karmic and lucid .. out of these six what is the most current?
[06:38] <roscoe> bazhang i said other then terminal but il give it a shot, at the momment im not used to terminal and am not sure what to look for in all the writting, but il try
[06:38] <bazhang> jon8, maverick
[06:39] <bazhang> jon8, it may well work though
[06:39] <edev> jon8: I believe lucid - they're alphabetical, I believe.
[06:39] <bazhang> roscoe, there is a gui one, let me check
[06:39] <rturner> jon8, the names are in alphabetical order from lest to most recent
[06:39] <Lanlost> wtf
[06:39] <jon8> bazhang i know that maverick is the latest, i'm wondering out of those 6 i listed, what is the latest.
[06:39] <jon8> rturner and edev ok, thank you
[06:40] <mrroth> do I need to create the partion first then the raid 1 mirror (software raid) or just run this mdadm --create  /dev/md0 --level=mirror --raid-devices=2 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdb1 < then do mkfs.ext3 /dev/md0
[06:40] <mrroth> I did  fdisk /dev/sdb
[06:40] <Lanlost> so I have it in the Sound Preferences thing.. watching the "Input" meter right? playing sound.. changing settings in alsamixer and in there, etc until I see something happen
[06:40] <jon8> so lucid is 10.04?
[06:40] <Lanlost> I finally got it.. sort of
[06:40] <jon8> is this correct?
[06:40] <AbhiJit> among .qtl .ram .pls  and .asx which is most compatible with linux?
[06:40] <sam-_-> jon8, correct
[06:40] <Lanlost> Analog Mono Duplex as the hardware profile.. then it finally shows a volume level for input
[06:40] <bazhang> AbhiJit, most all can be played
[06:40] <Lanlost> The problem is... it's... analog input and output
[06:40] <jon8> sam-_- thank you :)
[06:40] <AbhiJit> bazhang, okay
[06:40] <Lanlost> and not only that but alsamixer.. to make the input volume go up and down is changing PCM.. which is fine.. but it's not what I figured it would be
[06:41] <Lanlost> I need to record in stereo though.. sigh
[06:41] <Lanlost> I always tell people that sound in linux is broken and they just look at me like I'm crazy
[06:41] <Lanlost> sure.. if you just wanna play normal sound the way it's set up then it's fine.. I guess
[06:41] <Lanlost> but I wrote a like 5 page document thats a wall of text of all the bugs I found
[06:41] <Lanlost> crazy stuff too..
[06:41] <bazhang> Lanlost, whom are you addressing?
[06:41] <macman_> hi all question .. my dvd drive was working before and it just stopped
[06:42] <Lanlost> bazhang, the internet
[06:42] <Lanlost> =P
[06:42] <macman_> i try to mount it / play it and i get errors
[06:42] <ravibn> my webcam (frontech e-cam JIL2214) is not working after installing 10.10 anyone pl help It worked fine in 10.04
[06:42] <Lanlost> I'm just hoping someone has recorded audio in linux before..
[06:42] <macman_> mount: special device /dev/scd0 does not exist
[06:42] <bazhang> Lanlost, please dont break it up as it is very hard to read that way
[06:42] <macman_> any ideas  ?
[06:42] <Lanlost> bazhang, sorry. That's a bad habit of mine
[06:42] <PalinT> I need to install the graphical environment of Ubuntu 10.10
[06:42] <OtterNZ> How do I go about removing the title bar on selected applications? I can only find how to do this for every window, not just certain ones (the bar that says the name of the programme, and has the minimise/maximise/close buttons)
[06:42] <Lanlost> It's fine in a channel where there are like 5 people and only 2 are talking but horrible when it's full of people like this
[06:42] <one_> i not work mmio help me pls
[06:42] <jon8> Anyone in here use BIJK (www.bijk.com) server monitoring on Ubuntu 10.10? They only have instructions that support up to 10.04.
[06:42] <bazhang> PalinT, ubuntu-desktop package
[06:42] <edev> OtterNZ: I'm not sure that's actually possible
[06:43] <bazhang> one_, what is mmio
[06:43] <PalinT> treatment and does not work I install it in terminal mode
[06:43] <BlueBomber7> OtterNZ: So you want conditional window decoration?
[06:43] <bazhang> PalinT, what treatment
[06:43] <Bluefever> hey, weird question, but could I put an extra Hard Drive into the default case for my computer. I have an extra media slot, but I don't know exactly how it works. My computer is an HP m7060n.
[06:44] <OtterNZ> edev: damn - was wanting it gone from my web browser, but leaving it on other windows. BlueBomber7: If I we have the same definition of that, it sounds about right
[06:44] <wagle> hi..  how do you change the dhcp hostname an ubuntu client asks for from the command line?
[06:44] <Adog> hey guys i need a way to access a drive i have slaved in my ubuntu machine from my windows machine in a home network, i heard i have to use samba, so i have it installed, but i have no idea how to configure it
[06:44] <one_> mmio ??? logon screen have message mmio
[06:44] <bazhang> Bluefever, probably, but better ask in ##hardware
[06:44] <bazhang> one_, what is mmio
[06:44] <Bluefever> Thanks
[06:44] <edev> OtterNZ: What about fullscreen? Not a perfect fix, but maybe for your needs? And I am NOT an expert on the subject....
[06:44] <mrroth> I need help how to do software radi 1 in ubuntu server
[06:44] <wagle> /etc/hostname isnt it
[06:44] <mrroth> on partions
[06:44] <mrroth> hwo do I create them
[06:44] <BlueBomber7> OtterNZ: Have you looked in CompizConfig?  I see conditional decoration based on window title, class, ID, name, roll, and type
[06:45] <Danny78_> Which option should I set in BIOS to boot fro USB--  usb-fdd, usb-hdd, usb-zip?
[06:45] <AbhiJit> bazhang, actually there are four options on radio web site. so i wanted to select that player which is most linux friendly.
[06:45] <linux_is_my_hero> psycho_oreos: not even windows can format this thing. what is going on?
[06:45] <bazhang> AbhiJit, pls then
[06:45] <BlueBomber7> OtterNZ: Do you know what window decorator you use now?
[06:45] <AbhiJit> bazhang, ok. thank you
[06:45] <mister_m> can I view what process is running on a certain port and kill it?
[06:45] <Bluefever> @bazhang it says I need to be invited to the channel to join.
[06:45] <bazhang> linux_is_my_hero, do it through iTunes (only way outside of rockbox)
[06:45] <sam-_-> Danny78_, usb-hdd
[06:46] <bazhang> Bluefever, you need to register then, check #freenode for help with that
[06:46] <PalinT> ubuntu was apparently not compatible with my graphics card a GT 240 1 gb for that fridge when you start the installation I had to install a non-graphic but I need to know how to install and echo in many ways and all that installs the surroundings, and installed inside Windows 7
[06:46] <sam-_-> mister_m, mister_m you mean network port?
[06:46] <Danny78_> sam:  Do I need to press a button?  it boots from the internal hard drive
[06:46] <one_> i have problem with rtl8187 g/b
[06:46] <bazhang> PalinT, fridge?
[06:46] <bazhang> one_, thats ethernet or wireless
[06:47] <akerl> ok, so I'm running ubuntu 10.10 server, trying to setup ssh-agent for my ssh keys. what do i need to do? havent been able to find a guide that works
[06:47] <PalinT> my English is not good
[06:47] <jwfoxjr> does anyone have a good link for installing gnome3 in maverick?
[06:47] <sam-_-> Danny78_, hmm dunno
[06:47] <bazhang> one_, lspci in terminal ----> paste.ubuntu.com
[06:47] <PalinT> private chat pls
[06:47] <mister_m> sam-_-, yes
[06:47] <bazhang> PalinT, keep it here
[06:47] <one_> what
[06:47] <OtterNZ> edev: That's useful, but I still want the other things it hides. BlueBomber7: I'll look into compizconfig now, it's not in my menus (maybe because this is a KDE system with gnome installed afterwards). Also using metacity I think
[06:48] <roscoe> Using ubuntu 10.04, is 512 mb of ram enough to play average offline 3d games with over 10 fps? i know its not alot of ram, but im asking cause i need to figure out if its the ram or the video card on this old computer thats making the games run at around 4 fps
[06:48] <sam-_-> mister_m, sudo netstat -tulpen
[06:48] <one_> lspci in terminal ----> paste.ubuntu.com ?
[06:48] <bazhang> one_, open  a terminal; type lspci  , open a browser to paste.ubuntu.com then paste the output there and give us the url
[06:48] <PalinT> the GUI is not installed and tried with many command, will not I have to install a repository?
[06:48] <PalinT> ???
[06:49] <bazhang> PalinT, paste.ubuntu.com the errors from sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:49] <BlueBomber7> OtterNZ: If you didn't change the default decorator for GNOME, then, yeah, I'd say probably metacity.  I don't know how to configure that directly.  I usually use Compiz(Fusion) as my window manager, and use Emerald as my decorator.
[06:49] <sam-_-> roscoe, i would guess videocard. is there a lot of harddisk activity when playing?
[06:49] <one_> i not browser internet error with modem
[06:49] <bazhang> one_, you are on the internet now
[06:49] <BlueBomber7> OtterNZ: And those you can configure using compizconfig
[06:49] <roscoe> what do you mean exactly by harddisk activity?
[06:50] <roscoe> sam-_- what do you mean exactly by harddisk activity?
[06:50] <Danny78_> grub4dos looks a little too complicated for me
[06:50] <sam-_-> roscoe, if it's constantly accessing the harddisk. (using the swap)
[06:50] <bazhang> Danny78_, why would you use it, use grub2
[06:50] <OtterNZ> BlueBomber7: installing compizconf now, wasn't included in the gnome desktop environment when installed
[06:51] <Danny78_> bazhang:  I need to flash my mobo bios
[06:51] <PalinT> I can not get the report because he blocked me
[06:51] <one_> browser internet disconnect with modem
[06:51] <linux_is_my_hero> does anyone know how to un-write protect an ipod?
[06:51] <bazhang> PalinT, who blocked you
[06:51] <bazhang> linux_is_my_hero, via iTunes alone
[06:52] <roscoe> sam-_- i dont know how to check that and i feel stupid for not understanding it :P but i just tested some other games and they all run perfectly, just the 3d one isnt running right, so should i be safe to assume its video card and not ram <though more ram would be nice>?
[06:52] <BlueBomber7> OtterNZ: Are you running Compiz?
[06:52] <bazhang> roscoe, how much ram
[06:52] <one_> not work
[06:52] <OtterNZ> BlueBomber7: Yes. Looking to try and find the settings needed in compizconfig now
[06:52] <bazhang> !work | one_
[06:52] <roscoe> bazhang 512 mb
[06:52] <bazhang> roscoe, yeah that would slow it down
[06:52] <linux_is_my_hero> bazhang: doesn't work
[06:52] <BlueBomber7> OtterNZ: You should find the window decorator option.
[06:53] <linux_is_my_hero> says it can't complete the format
[06:53] <sam-_-> roscoe, either by hearing or there should be a led that blinks when there is activity.
[06:53] <opengeard> blacklist/depmod -r pcspkr doesn't appear to silence beeps in lucid.
[06:53] <BlueBomber7> OtterNZ: AFAIK compiz uses "its own" window decorator by default, which is actually just a small wrapper around metacity.  Whatever decorator you decide to use you can manage from the window decoration submenu.
[06:53] <opengeard> is there something else that does the trick?
[06:54] <sam-_-> roscoe, we all were noobs once. no need to feel stupid ;)
[06:54] <OtterNZ> BlueBomber7: It seems to only have 1 option for this, wouldn't this make changes system wide?
[06:54] <PalinT> when installing Ubuntu 10.10 within 7 install windows in 4 minutes and choose ubuntu restart to continue the installation is fridge and the PC screen
[06:54] <one_> thank guy
[06:54] <roscoe> sam-_- haha yah :P i love ubuntu way more then windows, and im willing to learn all this stuff, but it can be confusing at first :P
[06:54] <bazhang> PalinT, wubi install?
[06:54] <Drahx_> I tried reloading the image onto my Thumb drive but it still goes to a blank screen just before the installation options page :-(
[06:55] <BlueBomber7> OtterNZ: Enable decoration, then click into the menu.  I see seven or eight settings there.
[06:55] <linux_is_my_hero> does virtualbox support usb devices like mp3 player's?
[06:55] <bazhang> PalinT, fridge is frozen?
[06:55] <PalinT> yes
[06:55] <BlueBomber7> OtterNZ: Nine settings.  The eighth and ninth are conditional decoration and shadowing settings.
[06:55] <bazhang> linux_is_my_hero, the one from their website does, not the -ose in the repos
[06:55] <SwedeMike> linux_is_my_hero: it's a little bit tricky to get working, but yes.
[06:55] <PalinT> freezes when I start to follow the installation
[06:55] <sam-_-> roscoe, i couldn't live without windows. i love games :-)
[06:55] <magn3ts> false.
[06:55] <bazhang> PalinT, no idea about wubi installs sorry
[06:55] <roscoe> sam-_- about hearing the noise, it is not making anymore noise once i run the game, but the fan is always making a constant hum :P
[06:56] <PalinT> Show him
[06:56] <BlueBomber7> OtterNZ: Unless you want to create your own metacity or emerald theme, you will lose more than the title bar when you disable decoration (no borders, shadows, anything, just window contents)
[06:56] <magn3ts> virtualbox is no longer distributed as separe OSE and non OSE version.
[06:56] <magn3ts> linux_is_my_hero, install virtualbox 4.
[06:56] <OtterNZ> BlueBomber7: It's enabled, I meant only 1 setting for which windows are decorated. When using the "add" button it only seems to have "and/or" functions, not some sort of "exclude" one
[06:56] <magn3ts> linux_is_my_hero, then install the usb extension.
[06:56] <Drahx_> First thing I did was setup VMware with Windows 7 for my games
[06:56] <magn3ts> done.
[06:56] <bazhang> !info virtualbox-ose
[06:56] <bazhang> magn3ts, ^
[06:56] <sam-_-> roscoe, check the led. but i doubt it's ram related
[06:56] <magn3ts> That's no longer accurate in regards to virtualbox 4.
[06:56] <roscoe> sam-_- haha yah :P personaly i say use ubuntu, and virtualbox windows xp on it so u have ur games on virtualbox, and use linux as ur main system :P
[06:56] <sam-_-> roscoe, btw. which game?
[06:57] <magn3ts> unless virtualbox-ose is the baseline virtualbox 4 image. There is no Non-OSE version of VirtualBox 4 distributed. The non-OSS components are distributed as extpack's.
[06:57] <sam-_-> roscoe, i play new games too. they don't work in a vm
[06:57] <BlueBomber7> OtterNZ: Did you experience invert?  It *may* invert the set of windows to which the condition applies, which sounds like what you want.
[06:57] <PalinT> http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/7707/imag0639s.jpg
[06:57] <roscoe> sam-_- im just trying with Supertuxkart for now
[06:57] <BlueBomber7> OtterNZ: Experiment with*
[06:57] <PalinT> is what I get when rebooting to continue installation
[06:57] <roscoe> sam-_- why wouldnt new games work in a vm? halo ce does and black ops?
[06:58] <Drahx_> sam-_-: I have had no issues with new games and I playing them on my VM Windows 7
[06:58] <sam-_-> Drahx_, which vm?
[06:58] <linux_is_my_hero> how do i install the usb plugin for virtualbox?
[06:58] <OtterNZ> BlueBomber7: Ok, I used the invert option and selected my browser, closing and opening browser to see if it did anything. Will exit this because this is open in my browser
[06:58] <Drahx_> VMware player
[06:59] <jetpuff> cant log into my ftp, incorrect password been trying to figure out why for hours can someone help?
[06:59] <bazhang> linux_is_my_hero, try #vbox
[06:59] <PalinT> mmmm
[06:59] <sam-_-> Drahx_, so if you compare native fps and vm fps, how is the difference?
[06:59] <magn3ts> linux_is_my_hero, download it and then double click it.....
[06:59] <bazhang> he;s gone
[06:59] <magn3ts> haha
[07:00] <magn3ts> oh well
[07:00] <Bokehmon> what is the default panel applet for wireless internet named? i accidentally deleted it and i don't know what the name is in the "add to panel" menu ._.
[07:00] <akerl> Ovron: that works if I'm calling it from a script i guess, but if i run that script, and then try ssh-add, it gives me "Could not open a connection to your authentication agent."
[07:00] <sam-_-> Bokehmon, nm-applet
[07:00] <magn3ts> bazhang, he's not even in #vbox >_< what a goof
[07:00] <OtterNZ> BlueBomber7: I had the "and" option inverted when selecting my browser, didn't seem to do anything. At least I now know as a last resort I can disable all, and add it back in on every other application 1 by 1 lol
[07:00] <roscoe> sam-_- native to vm fps? for league of legends native fps=75, vm fps=74 when i checked yesterday :P
[07:01] <roscoe> sam-_- minecraft's fps didnt drop at all in vm
[07:01] <Bokehmon> sam-_-: not seeing "nm-applet" there
[07:01] <Drahx_> sam-_-: My FPS dropped by 5% which is nothing, I set 8gb of Ram and 2 cores to run each, so I get great performance in both Linux and Windows
[07:01] <sam-_-> roscoe, that seems nice. and you have full acceleration? (all the directx 11 features)
[07:01] <bazhang> Bokehmon, you can always just resetpanels
[07:01] <bazhang> !resetpanels | Bokehmon
[07:01] <opengeard> In Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS, is there a way to permanently stop and disable the beep sound generated by ALSA?
[07:01] <Bokehmon> <3 thank you
[07:02] <sam-_-> Drahx_, you got an nvidia i'm guessing?
[07:02] <Drahx_> sam-_-: Ati Radeon 5770, running both Sound and Video through HDMI
[07:02] <Danny78_> if I make a live-cd of free dos and want to use aflash to upgrade my bios, do I add aflash and the bios file to the disc along with the iso?  will that make it unbootable?
[07:02] <roscoe> sam-_- i think, but keep in mind this is also my new computer i did that too :P 6 gb of ram, quad core 3.0ghz processor :P but still, on my laptop wich is onl dualcore 2.0ghz and 1 gig of ram, vm's fps isnt to much slower, its abit but not unplayably much
[07:03] <Bokehmon> thanks you guys!
[07:03] <opengeard> $ amixer set 'PC Speaker' 0% mute; amixer set 'PC Beep' 0% mute
[07:03] <sam-_-> Drahx_, roscoe, interesting
[07:03] <upsla> cannot mount cd in synaptic package manager in ubuntu 10.10.
[07:04] <bazhang> upsla, using aptoncd?
[07:04] <upsla> bazhang:i am newbie. what that means?
[07:04] <PalinT> mmmm
[07:05] <nanjinger> hi
[07:05] <bazhang> upsla, you would not mount it, you'd add it to the /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:05] <upsla> bazhang:as far i know apt is used to update etc
[07:05] <bazhang> !aptoncd | upsla
[07:05] <one_> i love ubuntu linux
[07:05] <opengeard> Found it!
[07:05] <nanjinger> nice meet you all
[07:05] <ubuntusage> woooh
[07:05] <roscoe> Would running a 32 bit Ubuntu 10.04 on a new 64 bit system have any downfall's/glitchs? would it work? or would that screw it up in someway?
[07:05] <qq99> somehow, compiz messed up my alt-tab shortcut to ctrl-alt-tab, how do I change it back? not in system>preferences>keyboard shortcuts unfortunately
[07:05] <qq99> I turned compiz off
[07:06] <bazhang> qq99, probably in ccsm
[07:06] <opengeard> sudo amixer set 'PC Speaker' 0% mute; sudo amixer set 'PC Beep' 0% mute; sudo amixer set Beep off; sudo alsactl store
[07:06] <upsla> bazhang:i am not using apton cd
[07:06] <BlueBomber7> qq99: Check your window switcher shortcuts in compiz
[07:06] <bazhang> upsla, then you should be, if you want to use the cd as an install source
[07:06] <BlueBomber7> qq99:  Compiz sets (and overwrites) a slew of shortcuts when you enable it.
[07:07] <ubuntusage> Guys, I have a problem with my laptop. Its not detecting the batter
[07:07] <ubuntusage> dmesg : [ 0.974257] ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT1] (battery absent)
[07:07] <bazhang> roscoe, it works fine here
[07:07] <BlueBomber7> qq99:  But you should be able to update it and change it to whatever you want.  You don't have to disable the entire window manager.
[07:07] <upsla> but synaptic package manager already has option called "add CDROM"
[07:07] <bazhang> upsla, what cd
[07:07] <upsla> bazhang:ubuntu10.10
[07:07] <ubuntusage> Any Kernel experts here?
[07:08] <qq99> BlueBomber7, so odd, is compiz always running? I turned it off in System>Appearance
[07:08] <bazhang> upsla, check /etc/apt/sources.list , it should be there already assuming you are on 10.10 now
[07:08] <qq99> BlueBomber7, that fixed my shortcut problem though, thanks :)
[07:08] <BlueBomber7> ubuntusage: Not I, not yet ;)
[07:08] <one_> by all
[07:08] <upsla> ubottu>!ubuntusage
[07:09] <upsla> ubottu|!ubuntusage
[07:09] <bazhang> upsla, /msg ubottu please
[07:09] <linux_is_my_hero> gparted doesn't see the ipod.
[07:09] <BlueBomber7> qq99: Compiz isn't necessarily always running.  It sets itself as the default when you install it, though IIRC.
[07:10] <roscoe> if i were to put a new videocard onto my old computer <Videocard: geforce 6200, OS: Ubuntu 10.04>, would i need to install some drivers beforehand for the videocard or just plug it in and go? is there anything id halfto do before hand?
[07:10] <bazhang> roscoe, put in , then install drivers after
[07:10] <Scott`> you can install the drivers after you install the card
[07:10] <ubuntusage> I guess its the problem with acpi or such
[07:10] <Scott`> itll use generic drivers until then
[07:10] <sam-_-> roscoe, supertuxkart should run with a 6200 i think
[07:10] <BlueBomber7> roscoe: Nope, drivers update after you install it.
[07:10] <Scott`> and also i wouldnt call the 6200 new
[07:11] <sam-_-> roscoe, have you installed the proprietary drivers?
[07:11] <upsla> bazhang:hi.but if it is there as u say, it shows error when i try to add a package from ubuntu cd ?
[07:11] <ubuntusage> I am using toshiba L650 laptop and it does not detect battery :(
[07:11] <roscoe> sam-_- yah thats what im thinking, taking 3 broken old computers and switching parts till we get it to work :P and no i havnt
[07:11] <bazhang> upsla, I did not say it was there, I told you where to look; have you looked?
[07:11] <roscoe> bazhang, BlueBomber7 okay, will it prompt me to do it after or will i halfto google it and find the driver myself?
[07:12] <upsla> bazhang:no
[07:12] <bazhang> roscoe, via additional drivers you can check
[07:12] <sam-_-> roscoe, if there are no proprietary drivers installed then yes just plug the new one in. it should just work. you may then need to install drivers
[07:13] <roscoe> sam-_- , bazhang, My dad said lastime he put in the videocard earlier today the computer wouldnt turn on and it just beeped at him, what would be the fix to that?
[07:13] <upsla> bazhang:if it is not there . what i should in these /etc/apt/sources ???
[07:13] <BlueBomber7> roscoe: I don't know.  The maker might provide a non-free driver for Canonical to distribute, but maybe not.
[07:13] <sam-_-> roscoe, there is the additional driver manager it will show you if there are drivers available for your card.
[07:13] <olskolirc> how can i get gufw to sit in my system tray please?
[07:13] <bazhang> upsla, paste.ubuntu.com /etc/apt/sources.list and give us the url
[07:13] <BlueBomber7> roscoe: If the maker doesn't free (as in "open up") their drivers to the community, send them an email bugging them to :-)
[07:14] <upsla> bazhang:k
[07:14] <BlueBomber7> roscoe: That said, I've seen EXCELLENT OOB support for all my ATI and nVidia cards.
[07:14] <sam-_-> roscoe, can mean a lot of stuff. broken video card. not enough power for the video card. not correctly plugged in...
[07:14] <roscoe> sam-_- bozhang BlueBomber7 thanks, ima shut down the computer and try, thanks everyone
[07:14] <quizme> hi
[07:14] <roscoe> sam-_- well well just see what it is... if all goes wrong i still have this one that just doesent have 3d support :P
[07:14] <sam-_-> BlueBomber7, what is OOB?
[07:15] <bazhang> sam-_-, out of the box
[07:15] <sam-_-> bazhang, ah. thx
[07:15] <quizme> i'm trying to add this to my /etc/apt/sources.list  http://archive.cloudera.com/debian/dists/lucid-cdh3/contrib/binary-amd64/Packages.gz
[07:15] <quizme> but i looked at sources.list and it doesn't look like a URL
[07:15] <quizme> how do i translate that URL into a sources.list line ?
[07:16] <quizme> the sources.list line that the docs gave me look like this:  deb http://archive.cloudera.com/debian DISTRO-cdh3 contrib
[07:16] <upsla> bazhang:it says apt not installed ??
[07:16] <quizme> but i'm getting package not found 404
[07:16] <upsla> bazhang:it says to download openjdk.
[07:16] <quizme> after doing an apt-get update
[07:17] <bazhang> upsla, what does openjdk have to do with this, just paste.ubuntu.com your sources.list
[07:17] <upsla> bazhang:k.
[07:18] <sam-_-> quizme, try deb http://archive.cloudera.com/debian lucid-cdh3 contrib
[07:18] <IdleOne> quizme: https://docs.cloudera.com/display/DOC/CDH3+Installation  scroll down to the Debian instructions.
[07:18] <qq99> for all of the window previews, be it in switcher or elsewhere, is there a way to make that work when minimized?
[07:18] <qq99> otherwise alt-tab is just a huge blurry icon
[07:19] <brainfreeze> how do i register my name
[07:19] <bazhang> qq99, there is a compiz plugin for that iirc , best to ask #compiz
[07:19] <bazhang> !register | brainfreeze
[07:19] <qq99> bazhang, thanks
[07:19] <bazhang> brainfreeze, /join #freenode
[07:19] <brainfreeze> how o i join
[07:20] <bazhang> brainfreeze, type ----->   /join #freenode
[07:20] <IdleOne> quizme: what version of Ubuntu are you running?
[07:20] <sam-_-> IdleOne, there is no maverick version. so it doesn't matter
[07:20] <brainfreeze> ok
[07:20] <IdleOne> sam-_-: ahh, ok
[07:21] <sam-_-> IdleOne, as long as he uses 10.04 or higher which i just assumed
[07:21] <quizme> idleone: i had to replace DISTRO with "lucid"
[07:21] <quizme> thanks
[07:22] <IdleOne> quizme: thank sam-_- :)
[07:22] <quizme> sam-_- thanks sam
[07:22] <rasa> what's the proper way to install the nvidia drivers on 10.10 ?
[07:23] <bazhang> rasa, via additional drivers
[07:23] <rasa> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia refers to a repo that doesn't have drivers for 10.10
[07:23] <Danny78_> Is it possible to add files (aflash, bios file) to a free dos iso?
[07:23] <rasa> bazhang: "additional drivers"? what is that?
[07:23] <Danny78_> I'm afraid it won't boot, or if I need to insert another cd, it won't let me
[07:23] <bazhang> system admin additional drivers rasa
[07:24] <rasa> bazhang: sorry, i don't follow, is there a howto somewhere that's up to date?
[07:25] <upsla> bazhang:here is sources.list contents. http://paste.ubuntu.com/554626/
[07:25] <bazhang> rasa, go to the menu marked system, then choose administration, and there see additional drivers
[07:25] <vitalii> hi all, could you please assist

[07:25] <bazhang> vitalii, with what
[07:25] <rasa> bazhang: sorry, i don't have a working X system, hence my query
[07:25] <vitalii> suddenly I started to have problem
[07:25] <vitalii> with downloading files using wget
[07:25] <bazhang> rasa, start up in safe mode then
[07:25] <vitalii> and also apt-get is not working
[07:25] <rasa> doesn't work
[07:25] <vitalii> Ubuntu Server 10.4
[07:25] <rasa> i've spent *all day* on this
[07:25] <al_nz1> anyone here know how to get VLC player working with DVB-T?
[07:26] <vitalii> first: wget - when i try to download a file
[07:26] <rasa> it's a dual head w701ds, and ubuntu fails miserably on it, tho fedora and winbloz work fine
[07:26] <bazhang> rasa, recovery mode does not work? what exactly does not work. exact errors please
[07:26] <sacarlson> vitalii: it could be a site problem did you try the site with your browser?
[07:26] <vitalii> wget http://md.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gdb/gdb_7                                                                                .1-1ubuntu2_i386.deb
[07:26] <vitalii> yes
[07:26] <vitalii> I am able to download using web browser

[07:26] <upsla> bazhang:i posted the link
[07:27] <kataclysm> hello
[07:27] <carson> whats a better video card, gforce 4 or gforce 6200?
[07:27] <sacarlson> vitalii: I get site not found error
[07:27] <Scott`> carson, neither
[07:27] <rasa> that's after installing the nvidia drivers, and running nvidia-xconfig per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[07:27] <sacarlson> vitalii: from my browser
[07:27] <Scott`> they both suck so bad that you wouldnt really notice
[07:27] <Scott`> but the 6200 is better
[07:27] <SwedeMike> carson: 6200 is newer so probably better, but they're both really old and basic.
[07:27] <rasa> that those drivers are not for 10.10, but an earlier version
[07:28] <rasa> also see: FATAL: Module nvidia not found.

[07:28] <Scott`> i dont actually think its a good idea to use the latest drivers with a card as old as the 6200
[07:28] <vitalii> and wget is not able
[07:28] <carson> okay, what about gforce 2 vs gforce 4? im gonna guess 4 :P
[07:28] <vitalii> error is:
[07:28] <Scott`> yes, 4

[07:30] <lynxomania> bazhang: one of my client doesnt know his user password which is required to install applications... i need to recover/reset his password without causing any permission issues...
[07:30] <upsla> cannot mount cd rom in synaptic package manager.here is the source.list contents link. http://paste.ubuntu.com/554626/.
[07:30] <vitalii> but when I am tryoing to download using wget on anothe rserver
[07:30] <carson> Scott' so far its working good, just the gforce 4 and gforce 2 are having troubles with 3d games, and our 6200 worked fine before, now lines go on the screen and its not really working so yah... :P
[07:30] <vitalii> CentoS
[07:30] <vitalii> it is working finre
[07:31] <vitalii> so no type for sure
[07:31] <bazhang> upsla, the cd is already in your sources.list

[07:31] <FloodBot3> vitalii: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:31] <Scott`> carson, all your options will struggle with 3d
[07:31] <SwedeMike> carson: perhaps time to spend 40 eur on some kind of gforce 8400 or alike? then you get accelerated video decoding as well.
[07:31] <vitalii> japan will be the same
[07:31] <Scott`> the geforce 4 was released in 2002
[07:31] <vitalii> OK
[07:31] <bazhang> vitalii, dont use enter so much
[07:31] <bazhang> whoops
[07:32] <lynxomania> can someone help me recover a user password???
[07:32] <[thor]> lynxomania: what OS?
[07:32] <lynxomania> 10.04
[07:32] <lynxomania> ubuntu
[07:32] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword lynxomania
[07:32] <carson> SwedeMike is gforce 8400 the newest or just newer?
[07:32] <Scott`> newer
[07:33] <SwedeMike> carson: it's a few years old, but still quite a lot better.
[07:33] <lynxomania> bazhang: lemme try
[07:33] <SwedeMike> carson: plus has good software support.
[07:33] <carson> SwedeMike alright thanks, il go to the used computer hardware store monday :P
[07:33] <SwedeMike> carson: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purevideo is a good place to start, all of the ones with purevideo VP2 and VP3 has good software support I would say.
[07:34] <carson> SwedeMike alright thanks alot
[07:37] <watermaster> OK I have a new install of 10.04 and I have a geforce gtx460 se card, which on my new install only displays 800x600.  when I go to enable hardware, it doesn't see any binary drivers available.  before changing driver, should I try to use one of the xrandr tools to change resolution?
[07:38] <dotblank> watermaster, sure go for it
[07:38] <Scott`> watermaster
[07:38] <dotblank> watermaster, won't really help with the driver issue tho
[07:38] <Scott`> go to nvidia.com and just download it from there
[07:38] <sacarlson> watermaster: still haven't got that fixed?  lspci -v  what driver you have it on now?  that should show us
[07:38] <watermaster> OK
[07:38] <dotblank> don't listen to Scott` download the driver from the repo
[07:38] <glaceman> good morning every 1
[07:39] <SwedeMike> Scott`: I don't think you can do that with 10.04 and later, that way was deprecated. But nvidia might have changed something since?
[07:39] <dotblank> It will break after every kernel update if you download from nvidia
[07:39] <Scott`> i did it on 10.10
[07:39] <watermaster> 08:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Device 0e23 (rev a1)
[07:39] <SwedeMike> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-install-nvidia-drivers-manually-on-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx.html
[07:39] <dotblank> Scott`, yes it'll work but...
[07:39] <Danny78> I booted ubuntu into FreeDOS and when I typed in the name of the new bios file it said it couldn't find it...  any help?
[07:39] <dotblank> it doesn't use dkms by default
[07:39] <sacarlson> watermaster: one of my installs on nvidea I had a simmilar problem but the problem was that it didn't reconcnize my monitor
[07:40] <watermaster> last night I tried to hack around with stuff from the xorg-edgers, I think.  That completely destroyed X, so I reinstalled.
[07:40] <Danny78> should I just try ezflash?
[07:40] <sacarlson> watermaster: bellow that the driver with lspci -v  it should read nvidia
[07:40] <watermaster> SwedeMike: checking that link
[07:41] <sacarlson> watermaster: mine shows Kernel driver in use: nvidia
[07:41] <watermaster> oh here it is
[07:41] <watermaster> 08:00.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation Device 0beb (rev a1)

[07:41] <watermaster> 	Capabilities: <access denied>
[07:41] <FloodBot3> watermaster: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:41] <SwedeMike> watermaster: but it's still not the best way, see if you can't find a repository with the nvidia drivers you need, then you'll get smooth kernel upgrades in the future, if you do that method you'll have to re-install the nvidia drivers every time you change kernels.
[07:41] <dotblank> watermaster, oh plese don't follow those intructions
[07:41] <dotblank> watermaster, they are incorrect
[07:42] <dotblank> watermaster, they will break after every update
[07:42] <watermaster> sacarlson: what did you run that says which kernel driver is in use?
[07:42] <sacarlson> watermaster: lspci -v
[07:43] <sacarlson> watermaster: but just one of the last line in the part about your video card
[07:43] <watermaster> oh I see it blocked me from flooding: Kernel modules: nvidiafb, nouveau
[07:45] <watermaster> oh here's something from hardwarecanucks: "GTX 460 SE is what’s called a “virtual product” in certain distributor circles. This means there is no reference version per se and NVIDIA’s AIBs can design the card around a loosely defined set of specifications"
[07:49] <sacarlson> watermaster: yes those are the available what is in use?  as you can see mine http://pastebin.com/shm861Jw
[07:49] <watermaster> http://paste.ubuntu.com/554633/
[07:50] <watermaster> thats all mine tells, me, I don't think it tells me chich is in use
[07:50] <sacarlson> watermaster: so I guess those aren't being used
[07:51] <lynxomania> issues when resetting user password!!! permission issues!!! desktop is not loading... what to do...
[07:51] <lynxomania> pls help
[07:51] <sacarlson> watermaster: don't you still have the nvidia ppa installed?
[07:51] <bazhang> lynxomania, what permissions issues, specify please
[07:51] <Guest60237> how to install  dot net in ubuntu
[07:51] <dotblank> lynxomania, start in single user mode
[07:51] <watermaster> sacarlson, I broke stuff, so I reinstalled clean
[07:51] <Scott`> Guest19189: install mono
[07:52] <Scott`> er Guest60237 even
[07:52] <sacarlson> watermaster: that's cool sometimes that's the best thing to do
[07:52] <watermaster> I'm trying to work out whether I'll get new nouveau from a ppa first, or get nvidia binaries from a ppa first
[07:52] <lynxomania> i got into recovery mode, changed the password for the user... and when user logs into the system with new password, desktop is not loading.., and also getting errors like need to reconfigure home folder and so on...
[07:52] <Guest60237> Scott`, what do u mean
[07:52] <administrator__> wei
[07:53] <bazhang> !cn | administrator__
[07:53] <greppy> lynxomania: did they have an encrypted home directory?
[07:53] <administrator__> cn
[07:53] <watermaster> or maybe I should upgrade to the latest stable kernel first
[07:53] <lynxomania> i tried to ass rw init=/bin/bash but got output as /bin/bash doesnt exist...
[07:53] <lynxomania> yea... the user has an encrypted home directory!!!
[07:53] <sacarlson> watermaster: in theory you should be able to have them all installed and move between the drivers but as we seem to have found they seem to comflict some how
[07:53] <glaceman> hey guys, any software to record audio from my  mic jack ?
[07:54] <dotblank> lynxomania, oh jeez
[07:54] <edoceo> Audacity
[07:54] <edoceo> ^^ glaceman
[07:54] <glaceman> edoceo: thanks
[07:54] <watermaster> sacarlson, does it seem accurate that its probably safer to try out nouveau from ppa first, since they maybe are less of a hassle to remove?
[07:54] <greppy> lynxomania: unless they saved the decrypt string, you are going to have to get the old password back, otherwise, it's gone.
[07:54] <lynxomania> dotblank: NO NO... dont say that!!! :D
[07:54] <Bluefever> I'm planning on installing windows 7 just so I can play some games on the side, and wanted to know how I can partition my drive properly.
[07:54] <Bluefever> I'm running ubuntu 10.10 at the moment
[07:55] <sacarlson> watermaster: I'm not sure,  I don't recall any being that hard to remove
[07:55] <lynxomania> greppy: i have the encryption password for home folder...
[07:55] <edoceo> Bluefever: Make a partition for Windows, instatall to that - re-install the bootloader to undo with Win7 did, boot Win and play games
[07:55] <sacarlson> watermaster: worst case you delete the driver from the kernel or just rename it so it can't be found
[07:55] <watermaster> any word whether I should update to a real new kernel first?
[07:56] <greppy> lynxomania: then sudo su - $user, and try "ecryptfs-mount-private"
[07:56] <lynxomania> what about the init=/bin/bash issue i mentioned... how come i got the message /bin/bash doesnt exist...
[07:56] <glaceman> edoceo: let's say im currently running ubuntu, and planning to install windows on another partition, how can i fix the boot , cause grub will be gone
[07:56] <Bluefever> O.k. so I got the first part, and I think I've read about the second part you mentioned, but how would I go about reinstalling the bootloader @edoceo
[07:56] <sacarlson> watermaster: I think the old kernel would be better since that is what they used to compile the last update of real nvidea
[07:56] <watermaster> maybe I should just get an older nvidia card to use with linux, as the drivers are better for the loder cards
[07:57] <lynxomania> greppy: does sudo su - $user give the user the permission to install/remove applications???
[07:57] <ox3a> Which package do i need to install to execute java application(jar)?
[07:57] <greppy> lynxomania: sudo su - $user lets you become the user, to then run the ecryptfs-mount-private command to mount the home directory
[07:57] <edoceo> glaceman, Bluefever - you have to re-do Grub - this will get you started: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2
[07:58] <greppy> I *think* once they do that they can change the password using passwd and it will update the encrypted volume, not sure though.
[07:58] <glaceman> edoceo: thanks i'll have a look at that
[07:58] <edoceo> If you're not comfortable with Grub workings, the wipe the disk, install windows to a small first partition, the Ubuntu (or any other linux) to the rest
[07:58] <Avery> how do i downgrade a package that i installed manually with dpkg?
[07:58] <Avery> i installed a beta version that crashes
[07:58] <lynxomania> greppy: so if the user had not encrypted the home directory, resetting the user password from recovery mode would bring no issues???
[07:58] <greppy> lynxomania: correct
[07:58] <sacarlson> watermaster: or is it?  what is the date of the last nvidea release?  whatever that is or what it has been know to run with should be your choice
[07:59] <lynxomania> greppy: any way to remove this home directory encryption!!!
[07:59] <matban> hello
[08:00] <ox3a> Which package do i need to install to execute java application(jar file)?
[08:00] <superlinkx> Anyone know what could be causing freezes and Xorg crashes when using a 2.6.35 kernel as opposed to a 2.6.32 kernel?
[08:00] <greppy> lynxomania: probably, I'd have to google it or hit up the ubuntu website/forums though.
[08:01] <watermaster> Release Date:2010.12.13
[08:01] <lynxomania> greppy: i'm also doing the same... googling!!! hope we find something!!!
[08:01] <Bluefever> @edoceo I was reading it and wanted to make sure I have it straight. So reinstalling GRUB 2 will allow ubuntu to be the primary OS at startup?
[08:01] <greppy> lynxomania: good luck/
[08:01] <watermaster> thats nvidia 	260.19.29
[08:02] <puppy> how to solve problem with "package dependencies cannot be resolved" when installing packages?
[08:02] <sacarlson> watermaster: I guess that's newer than mine,  you should try it on what you got,  if it fails update the kernel
[08:02] <lynxomania> greppy: thanks for the help...
[08:02] <superlinkx> @ox3a you could download the official Java if you want or you could use the open source OpenJava that usually comes with ubuntu. I use the official java, which you can get using : sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-jdk

[08:08] <puppy> package dependencies could not resolved. This error could be caused by required additional software packages which r missing or not installable.Furthermore there could be conflict between software packages which r not allowed to be installed at the same time.
[08:09] <puppy> it cannot copy and paste so I typed.

[08:19] <vonvon> mail me<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[08:19] <rww> steal: If by "deutch", you mean German, that would probably be the freenode server you're connected to. Sounds like Firestarter is picking up the high-port connections your computer's using to receive data back from servers.
[08:19] <bazhang> puppy, paste /etc/apt/sources.list and give us the url please
[08:19] <puppy> ok

[08:34] <vonvon> you can search google
[08:34] <puppy> i am checking it once again
[08:34] <Dr_Willis> alaing:   seems thats part of the samba-common package. purge the package, remove the empty file it it still exists, reinstall samba-common
[08:34] <bazhang> vonvon, or you can tell me here
[08:34] <Dr_Willis> dlocate -S smb.conf --->  samba-common: /usr/share/samba/smb.conf
[08:35] <pityonline> Hello! Is there a way to play 3D movies on Ubuntu?
[08:35] <bazhang> pityonline, with the glasses?
[08:35] <pityonline> bazhang: yes
[08:35] <alaing> Dr_Willis: is that the command i need to run?
[08:35] <bazhang> pityonline, dont think any computer can do that
[08:35] <vonvon> hi
[08:35] <Dr_Willis> alaing:  use the pacakge manager tools to 'purge' the samba-common package.  i dont know the exact command.
[08:35] <bazhang> vonvon, what is mmio region
[08:35] <puppy> it says 10.10
[08:36] <puppy> maverick
[08:36] <bazhang> puppy, well your sources say 10.04
[08:36] <alaing> Dr_Willis: let me try purge it first
[08:36] <pityonline> bazhang: Windows 7 can do it with the StereoPlayer.
[08:36] <vonvon> you can search google
[08:36] <puppy> so really where I am really?
[08:36] <puppy> so really where I am?
[08:36] <bazhang> pityonline, no idea, maybe mplayer, never heard of it
[08:37] <Dr_Willis> alaing:  just removeing a pacakge - does not remove its config files. Purgeing removes config files.
[08:37] <bazhang> puppy, did you fix your sources.list ?
[08:37] <puppy> no
[08:37] <puppy> I am doing now
[08:37] <pityonline> bazhang: I found a patch for mplayer, I tried to make install but always fail.
[08:37] <bazhang> puppy, fix that first, then we can get you upgrading
[08:38] <Dr_Willis> pityonline:  check for updated/ppa versions of Mplayer perhaps one will include the patch
[08:38] <lynxomania> HELP... why cant i connect to a remote ubuntu machine??? not getting connection...
[08:38] <pityonline> Dr_Willis: OK,thx!
[08:39] <Dr_Willis> lynxomania:  firewall, router settings, isp has stuff blocked.. it could be down...
[08:39] <Dr_Willis> lynxomania:  give the channel more details.
[08:39] <alaing> Dr_Willis: I asked the package manager to completely remove the package include config files
[08:39] <lynxomania> no firewall... fresh install...
[08:39] <bazhang> lynxomania, the same one with the encrypted directory and lost pass?
[08:39] <Dr_Willis> lynxomania:  you do realize that ssh is not isntalled by default right?
[08:39] <puppy> remove all or the 54th entry?
[08:39] <bazhang> puppy, yep
[08:39] <Dr_Willis> alaing:  if the file is still there. rename/delete it.
[08:39] <puppy> ok
[08:39] <lynxomania> bazhang... yes... those issues are over...
[08:40] <vonvon> auto DHCP
[08:40] <lynxomania> dr_willis... 4got... :D so once i still SSH, i just need to use the clients ip address to connect right???
[08:40] <bazhang> vonvon, wired?
[08:41] <Dr_Willis> lynxomania:  depenesd on how its connected to the internet. but thats the core of it.

[08:41] <bazhang> vonvon, auto dhcp
[08:41] <lynxomania> bazhang: encyption issue was in my system... my client doesnt have that... i was testing the password recvery on my system... it will be a shame if i tell my client to do it and it doesnt work... :D
[08:41] <Dr_Willis> JackyAlcine:  give a summary of the problem?
[08:42] <JackyAlcine> Dr_Willis: Hard drive problems, issues with e2fsck
[08:42] <alaing> Dr_Willis: hmm /etc/samba still exists and so does the three files under it which includes smb.conf
[08:42] <puppy> bazhang: its working well now...thank u so much
[08:42] <Dr_Willis> alaing:  so rename the dir then perhaps.
[08:42] <alaing> can i just delete /etc/samba
[08:42] <vonvon> you have ubuntu server
[08:42] <puppy> I am now installing vlc and its on the way
[08:42] <Dr_Willis> alaing:  its your system - you can do whatever you want. :)
[08:42] <bazhang> puppy, follow the upgrade links if you wish

[08:43] <puppy> ok
[08:43] <bazhang> vonvon, sudo dhclient eth0
[08:43] <Dr_Willis> alaing:  you could grab the samba-common deb package and extract the confif files from, there if you really want just the config  files
[08:43] <vonvon> oh! thank
[08:44] <alaing> Dr_Willis: I prefer to completely reinstall
[08:44] <lynxomania> Dr_Willis: installing ssh will solve my issues???

[08:46] <Mary-Jane> Hi, I have skype that can't locate my soundcard. I looked on troubleshooting and it says that this usually means some application is using it so I disabled the only thing, pulseaudio... It still doesn't work so I'm thinking I don't have a soundcard. What  apt-get install command can I use to get a working soundcard for an integrated setup.
[08:46] <red2kic> JackyAlcine: I hate portable hard drives -- They mess up so fast. I lost my 1TB Portable HDD. Internal HDD drives are the way to go, I suppose. Just saying.
[08:47] <bazhang> Mary-Jane, try installing padevchooser and pavucontrol
[08:47] <Dr_Willis> hard drives are the 'weakest link' in any pc system these days it seems...
[08:47] <alaing> Dr_Willis: ok i renamed the folder and the config files. I'm just running sudo apt-get install samba
[08:47] <lynxomania> Dr_Willis: i need to connect to my client who is running ubuntu... he is also online... i need to share his system...
[08:47] <JackyAlcine> red2kic: I'm definitely making the choice for a SSD next time.. =/
[08:47] <sysop3> I am using internal harddrives but with a one of those hard drive readers.
[08:47] <Scott`> nah, graphics cards are
[08:47] <bazhang> Mary-Jane, thats for use with pulse
[08:47] <sysop3> makes hard drives into really big  floppy disks
[08:47] <sascha_> Hi i just wonderd... How can I be in to channels at the same time in irssi?
[08:48] <Dr_Willis> I wonder how  much of a lifespan these ssd's will have in real-life ussage.
[08:48] <bazhang> sascha_, you can be in 120 on freenode
[08:48] <sysop3> I have killed a flash card running ext3 on it.
[08:48] <sysop3> and a usb drive.
[08:48] <Dr_Willis> sascha_:  you may want to check some irssi tutorials, you just /join #chan1 #chan2 then alt-2 alt-3 btweek them i recall.
[08:48] <Dr_Willis> sascha_:  or some key combo like that. I prefer Weechat these days
[08:49] <Dr_Willis> sascha_:  in weechat its alt-<#>
[08:49] <alaing> chatzilla
[08:49] <bazhang> sascha_, there is also #irssi for more info and they have good documentation
[08:49] <Dr_Willis> Weechat and IRSSi both have some decnet docs. :) No one ever bothers to read them..
[08:49] <Mary-Jane> One more question: How do I re-install pulseaudio?
[08:49] <sascha_> ok thank you so much, I like irssi thats the client I can the most... I just didnt know how to be in two channels at the same time hehe
[08:50] <bazhang> Mary-Jane, via the package manager
[08:50] <Dr_Willis> sascha_:  weechat has a larger featureset
[08:51] <puppy> bazhang: I upgraded 10.04 to 10.10 following the instruction from that site.It took a long time almost 2 hrs.
[08:51] <puppy> I have a ubuntu 10.10 original cd
[08:52] <sysop3> whats wrong with xchat?
[08:52] <puppy> and I tried to mount it and upgrade but failed
[08:52] <bazhang> sysop3, nothing?
[08:52] <puppy> any other way to upgrade than online
[08:52] <User> Hello
[08:52] <bazhang> puppy you need the alternate for that
[08:52] <sysop3> ok, just asking.
[08:52] <puppy> ya I have one.
[08:52] <Dr_Willis> sysop3:  i recall ages ago xchat having lots of features, and nice defautls.. then  they slowly started trimming things out.. got annoying after a while. :)
[08:53] <sysop3> I used to be a devoted bitchx user. but xchat is so much easier
[08:53] <bazhang> puppy, not the live cd but the alternate cd can be an upgrade option
[08:53] <sysop3> I like it now. it is a little sparse.
[08:53] <bazhang> !offline | puppy also this
[08:53] <Scott`> i'm still waiting for someone to mention mIRC
[08:53] <Dr_Willis> sysop3:  comapring BitchX to Xchat is like comparing a off-road vehicle to a Comuter Car. :)
[08:53] <puppy> ok
[08:53] <alaing> Dr_Willis: gettings a few errors when i do sudo apt-get install samba. how do i pastebin the errors
[08:53] <sysop3> I tried kvirc and ksirc. but xhcat beats them both. AFAIMC
[08:54] <puppy> ok i will try.
[08:54] <puppy> thanks
[08:54] <Dr_Willis> sysop3:  a few years back when xchat changed their default color scheme and some other things. they removed a large # of default menu items/settings/defaults/scripts that really annoyed people.
[08:54] <Dr_Willis> !pastebin | alaing
[08:54] <Dr_Willis> sysop3:  if You perfer a text based irc client. theres irssi, and my fave. weechat.
[08:54] <JackyAlcine> No help?
[08:54] <sysop3> I vaugley rememebr that.
[08:55] <bazhang> JackyAlcine, need more details here
[08:55] <sysop3> I think I was using kvirc then.
[08:55] <Scott`> Dr_Willis: all IRC clients are text based
[08:55] <JackyAlcine> bazhang: What exactly?
[08:55] <JackyAlcine> I'll post it up on the forums as well. I hope I can help someone else as well.
[08:55] <bazhang> JackyAlcine, a synopsis of what that ubuntuforums link is about, for one
[08:56] <sysop3> is bitchx now called pork?
[08:56] <Rabbitbunny> bazhang: His ext HDD is dead, how get data?
[08:56] <sysop3> ddrewscue
[08:56] <Dr_Willis> sysop3:  not that i know of... bitchx is dead i thought.
[08:56] <JackyAlcine> bazhang: It describes as much as possibly fit my hard drive specs, my issue and the steps I've taken so far to repair it.
[08:56] <User> I installed Ubuntu by Wubi on my Windows 7 machine, it went to the select Windows 7 or Ubuntu thing and then started acting up when I selected Ubuntu (it had a black background with lots of data). Why is this? What can I do?
[08:57] <sysop3> apt-cache search bitchx
[08:57] <sysop3> pork - Console-based AOL Instant Messenger & IRC client
[08:57] <bazhang> JackyAlcine, gddrescue perhaps
[08:57] <lynxomania> someone pls help me in remote sharing!!!
[08:57] <JackyAlcine> I'll look it up, bazhang.
[08:57] <sysop3> looks like bitchx
[08:57] <Dr_Willis> sysop3:  how many ways would you expect a totally text based irc client to look?
[08:57] <JackyAlcine> Mind you, bazhang, I gave up on recovery; I just want to the disk to be restored to a usable state.
[08:58] <sysop3> true
[08:58] <alaing> Dr_Willis: these are the errors I'm getting http://pastebin.com/a31tbWSa
[08:58] <red2kic> JackyAlcine: Did you move your HDD around much?
[08:58] <sysop3> well maybe if I can get phoenex to run it that would settle.
[08:58] <sysop3> it.
[08:58] <User> I installed Ubuntu by Wubi on my Windows 7 machine, it went to the select Windows 7 or Ubuntu thing and then started acting up when I selected Ubuntu (it had a black background with lots of data). Why is this? What can I do?
[08:58] <Dr_Willis> JackyAlcine:  whats the brand of the HD? some companies have a web site - you enter the serial/model # and they tell you how much longer the warrenty is good for. I got some broken Segates gave to me.. and was able to return them that way :) got 320GB hd's for free that way
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> sysop3:  no idea what phoenex is.
[08:59] <sysop3> ddrescue works great
[08:59] <JackyAlcine> red2kic: I unplugged it because I was running a bit too many Java applications.
[08:59] <ksmith> hey guys. I wondered if there was a way to modify the alignment of desktop icons to be the same as any other window.
[08:59] <sysop3> google how to recover hard drive using ddresuce
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> lynxomania:  clarify whatyou are doing and want/need to do exactly.
[08:59] <JackyAlcine> Dr_Willis: Seagate Expansion Portable 2GH473GA
[08:59] <ksmith> what I don't like is the horizontal alignment of the icons on the desktop ... or more like the lack of alignment.
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> JackyAlcine:  so go tothe segate web site, they got some place to enter the serial/id#
[09:00] <lynxomania> Dr_Willis... i need to access my clients ubuntu desktop via internet...
[09:00] <vonvon> bazhang: how to backup Hard drive image
[09:00] <bazhang> vonvon, via clonezilla , remastersys , sbackup or the like
[09:00] <Dr_Willis> JackyAlcine:  they also have some repair utilities..  but the question is - do you want to try to save the data? and even if you 'fix' the drive via their software - do you trust it..
[09:00] <lynxomania> dr_willis: the client is online too...
[09:00] <sysop3> Dr_Willis, phoenix was a old old irc script
[09:00] <bazhang> !sbackup | vonvon
[09:00] <Doinkle> lynxomania, quick and dirty: teamviewer.com
[09:00] <Dr_Willis> lynxomania:  so they need to install some service/tools to allow you access. such as ssh, or other remote-desktop tools.

[09:02] <Dr_Willis> SeanInSeattle:  a samba share? theres samba commands to do specific things/get files/put files. but its an annoyance.

[09:18] <bazhang> teluge_, with a gparted live cd sure
[09:18] <Dr_Willis> teluge_:  unallocated space? you can make a new partition from it. and do whatever you wanted..
[09:18] <Dr_Willis> depending on how the HD is laied out.
[09:18] <AbhiJit> Dr_Willis, solved. thanks
[09:18] <teluge_> oh its located space.... i jus dont need that much space is all
[09:18] <teluge_> gparted? ill look into it thanx
[09:18] <Dr_Willis> teluge_:  use gparted to resize.
[09:18] <teluge_> ty
[09:19] <Dr_Willis> a gparted 'livecd' is a must hav e for any pc users toolbox. :)
[09:19] <x_> hai there..

[09:24] <Bluefever> Hey, I wanted to play some games that fair better on windows, and at first I was thinking of partitioning my drive just for this purpose, but I'm having second thoughts.  So I figured I would just use a virtual machine instead, but I wanted to know if there were any negatives to doing so. I mean would it run slower, require more processing power etc.
[09:25] <rahadian> Dr_willis & bazhang : thanks for your help
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> rahadian:  the omgubuntu blog site - has a few mentioned almost every week. they give a cleaner look.
[09:25] <nawk> Unlike previous versions of Ubuntu, Maverick Meercat by default doesn't setup any additional tty (virtual terminals)
[09:25] <Doinkle> Bluefever, it depends on the demands of the game
[09:25] <bazhang> Bluefever, check the appdb for wine info
[09:25] <Doinkle> Bluefever, FPS are generally out for VMs but RPGs and 2D games are alright.
[09:25] <bazhang> !appdb | Bluefever
[09:25] <DasEi> Bluefever: will be much slower, bad graphics, rather try by wine
[09:26] <Doinkle> DasEi, VBox now offers 2d/3d accelleration. FYI :)
[09:26] <nawk> can someone PLEASE teach me how to setup additional tty's
[09:26] <nawk> ?
[09:26] <rahadian> Dr_willis : what is the main site of conky???
[09:26] <Doinkle> ha
[09:26] <Dr_Willis> rahadian:  i would have to google for it..
[09:26] <Bluefever> I'm aware of wine, and I would have used it, but there are too many bugs associated with the games I would like to play.
[09:27] <Bluefever> running under wine.
[09:27] <Bluefever> Which is why I was going to partition my drive.
[09:27] <Doinkle> Bluefever, how current of games?
[09:27] <DasEi> Bluefever: specs of the box ? (ram, cpu, graphics )  ?
[09:27] <Bluefever> Uhh.. The main one is Call of Cthulhu Dark Corners of The Earth
[09:28] <Bluefever> I think I allocated 512mb of ram to VirtualMachine.
[09:28] <Bluefever> not sure about the cpu or graphics
[09:29] <DasEi> Bluefever: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[09:29] <Doinkle> Bluefever, this sorta thing falls over to virtualbox support.
[09:29] <Doinkle> Bluefever, as in, they would know best what specs/settings for vbox
[09:29] <Bluefever> ahh alright.
[09:30] <rahadian> Dr_willis : have you found it???
[09:30] <Dr_Willis> when in doubt. add moar :)
[09:31] <Dr_Willis> rahadian:  You want me to go to google.com and enter conky for you?
[09:31] <Dr_Willis> rahadian:  then paste the url here? .....
[09:31] <rahadian> Dr_willis: yes,because i cant find it
[09:31] <rahadian> Dr_willis: sorry
[09:32] <Bluefever> not getting any action on #vbox
[09:32] <AbhiJit> !patience | Bluefever
[09:32] <Dr_Willis> the ubuntu forums also have a large # of conky related information
[09:32] <Dr_Willis> !conky
[09:32] <Bluefever> I mean I think that no ones in there.
[09:33] <bazhang> http://conky.sourceforge.net/ rahadian
[09:33] <Bluefever> even though it says 200+ users
[09:33] <Doinkle> Bluefever, search their forums.
[09:34] <DasEi> Bluefever: in general it will be easier to have a gaming party amongst another exotics; else have to tell better specs and also mind doinkle's hint as in vmware offereing graphics support
[09:35] <Diverdude> What does the '<' operator do?
[09:35] <Desen> Greetings ! I have installed Ubuntu 10.10 one month ago and today i was reading about the advantages of compiling the linux kernel on your PC. Is there any possibility of compiling the kernel on a system that has already linux (ubuntu) installed ?
[09:35] <Dr_Willis> Desen:  i doubt if you waill gain anything noticeable
[09:35] <bazhang> Desen, not really
[09:35] <Doinkle> Desen, yep
[09:35] <ubuntusage> Desen:not really needed, you could do it for just learning purposes
[09:36] <Dr_Willis> Desen:  you would be better off spending time learning bash or python, or other linux related topics then playing with the kernel. :)
[09:36] <ubuntusage> Desen:or you are in need for any additional modules
[09:36] <Diverdude> Desen, so what are the advantages?
[09:36] <Doinkle> Desen, if you really want to dabble in this, do it in a vm..not your host machine. :)
[09:37] <Desen> omg
[09:37] <ubuntusage> I just tried Debain Squeeze and it does have the same problem
[09:37] <ubuntusage> Its not detecting laptop battery :( any help?
[09:37] <ubuntusage> Tried all Ubuntu versions too
[09:37] <ubuntusage> Now I am on Ubuntu 10.10
[09:38] <Bluefever> Just read your comment DasEi so I'm gonna go snag Vmware
[09:38] <Dr_Willis> ubuntusage:  try 11.04 live cd yet?
[09:38] <ubuntusage> yes, I tried the 11.04 kernel too
[09:38] <Desen> Well, dudes. Thanx for all of your answer
[09:38] <Desen> "{
[09:38] <Desen> :P
[09:38] <ubuntusage> but failed
[09:38] <rahadian> !natty
[09:39] <rahadian> !conky
[09:39] <Dr_Willis> sounds like its a issue the the core kernel code.. you could check the kernel.org forums perhaps.
[09:39] <ubuntu> ?
[09:39] <jemark> ubuntusage, nice laptop
[09:39] <ubuntusage> here is the dmesg [ 0.974257] ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT1] (battery absent)
[09:39] <ubuntusage> jemark:its a brand new one ;) Toshiba L650
[09:39] <rahadian> !natty
[09:40] <ubuntusage> You could check the details  from here, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/703302
[09:40] <ubuntusage> I found many are having the same issue with Toshiba laptops
[09:40] <Desen_> I was thinking that compiling the lastest stable Ubuntu version would boost up my speed performace. I can't use Ubuntu due to the flash plugin wich wats hell ALOT of CPU
[09:40] <Diverdude> so whats the difference between: $ wc < RightNow.txt  and   $ cat RightNow.txt | wc    ?
[09:41] <Desen_> eats*
[09:41] <jemark> ubuntusage, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/703302
[09:42] <ubuntusage> jemark: that was reported by me itself ;)
[09:42] <Doinkle> Diverdude, result-wise i dont think there is one
[09:43] <Diverdude> Doinkle, so whats the '<' operator goo for if it can always be substituted with cat and '|' ?
[09:43] <Diverdude> goo=good
[09:44] <Doinkle> Diverdude, i cant give you a concise answer but AFAIK the < operand is embedded in the kernel whereas wx is an app called by |(which is a redirector)
[09:44] <Doinkle> wx = wc
[09:45] <Desen_> Does anyone have any idea how i can fight the flashplugin high CPU usage ? it makes my Ubuntu desktop unusable.
[09:45] <knight1996> change runlevel from 2 to 1, issue "sudo init 1" or "sudo telinit 1", dont work, any ideas? thanks.
[09:45] <Desen_> un-usable*
[09:46] <jemark> ubuntusage, i see. did you update the BIOS?

[09:53] <jemark> ubuntusage, 1.80 is the latest BIOS
[09:54] <nawk> Dr_Willis, after a fresh install, on the first few boots I was able to load into ubuntu fine.  Until recently X failed to load.  Basically black screen right after loading all the other startups
[09:54] <jemark> ubuntusage, update the bios, latest update is of 15/09/10 and should solve your issues
[09:54] <nawk> Dr_Willis, how can I recover it?  I'm on my LiveUSB again, so I do have access to the new installation
[09:54] <jemark> ubuntusage, http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_bios.jsp?service=UK
[09:54] <ubuntusage> jemark:1.70 is the latest one accourding to the toshiba ulitity
[09:55] <Dr_Willis> gabriel_:  googling for 'replace underscore spaces' give example scripts. youmay need to modify them, . because MOST people want to remove spaces.
[09:55] <jemark> ubuntusage, check
[09:55] <Dr_Willis> gabriel_: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=273598   is one hit i just checked out
[09:55] <ubuntusage> jemark:thanks, I am checking it :)
[09:55] <gabriel_> Dr_Willis, thanks m8
[09:56] <Dr_Willis> gabriel_:  spaces in file names - break so many things badly. i never want spaces in filenames
[09:56] <ubuntusage> jemark:umm that does not have my model, mine is L650 X5310 Indian one, let me try to find the one for it
[09:56] <andy_> @gabriel - rename 's/_/ /g' *
[09:56] <andy_> you can't use double quotes inside double quotes
[09:56] <jemark> ubuntusage, i see
[09:56] <gabriel_> Dr_Willis, The car Radio system likes them. so does the wife. so I can't really win this one m8

[09:57] <yuva> hi any one tell me to remove drupal
[09:59] <ubuntusage> jemark:http://www.toshiba-india.com/laptop/DriversDetails.aspx?product=Notebook%20Computer&series=Satellite&model=L650&cat=Bios&os=0
[09:59] <ubuntusage> jemark:it says 1.70 is the latest
[09:59] <jemark> ubuntusage, strange isn't it while the uk page has 1.80
[10:00] <yuva> tell me to the steps remove drupal
[10:00] <sitalkas> how could i set my computer to accept ssh connections? should i open the 22 port from the router?
[10:00] <psycho_oreos> ssh| sitalkas
[10:00] <psycho_oreos> !ssh| sitalkas
[10:00] <psycho_oreos> and yes you should open port 22 from your router if you want external access of ssh onto your computer
[10:01] <ubuntusage> jemark:yeah, I guess its not good idea to put 1.8 now
[10:01] <one> hi\
[10:01] <robbit10> !midi > robbit10
[10:01] <yuva> hey answer me dudes tell me the steps to remove drupal
[10:02] <jemark> ubuntusage, what is different with those models? i guess, the kernel is ok otherwise more laptops have the issue. toshiba need to put a link for the 1.80 update on the indian site :)
[10:02] <sitalkas> i connected to myself from console, but i wanted to connect also from outside. so i will open the 22. how can i find my computer remotely ith dynamic ip? can i use my dyndns domain?
[10:02] <ubuntusage> jemark:yeah :(
[10:03] <psycho_oreos> sitalkas: yes but its probably more ideal to have the router running the ddns service
[10:03] <psycho_oreos> yuva: the opposite way of how you installed it
[10:03] <quizme> what does an "escapable argument" mean?
[10:03] <quizme> is that like *.txt ?
[10:03] <jemark> ubuntusage, acpi is part of the bios
[10:03] <yuva> psycho_oreos: taht only dude
[10:04] <yuva> tell the steps
[10:04] <ubuntusage> jemark:I see, thats a good piece of info. umm I will try in that line
[10:04] <Dr_Willis> sitalkas:  theres dydns services for ubuntu you can use. many routers support it also these days
[10:04] <AbhiJit> yuva, http://drupal.org/node/241624
[10:04] <robbit10> I'm trying to set up Timidity to start up on boot, but when started via the /etc/init.d script, it will not function as a server. When I use the commands to run it as a server as listed on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Midi/SoftwareSynthesisHowTo, it works. But I want it to run on boot. How?
[10:05] <jemark> ubuntusage, ask Toshiba what is the reason why the uk has a 1.80 firmware update on their site :)
[10:05] <sitalkas> psycho_oreos: i have set my router to DNS and works fine. so when i want to access my desktop i just give ssh mydomain.dyndns.org and then it will ask me for the domain pass or sth?
[10:05] <andy_> dilaudid testing
[10:05] <ubuntusage> jemark: yeah ;)
[10:05] <andy_> @dilaudid testing
[10:05] <andy_> what what dilaudid
[10:05] <psycho_oreos> sitalkas: it should ask you for the pass to your computer that is running sshd, though you will need to accept the keys as well prior to entering your own password
[10:06] <livingdaylight> can someone help me with ssh?
[10:06] <AbhiJit> !SSH
[10:06] <nawk> does anyone realize that Maverick Meercat doesn't have any virtual consoles (tty's) setup by default?
[10:07] <livingdaylight> I"m getting port22: Connection refused
[10:07] <Darkc0der> Hello, I was wondering if there was someone here to help me with an issue on Ubuntu.
[10:07] <psycho_oreos> livingdaylight: its either blocked by firewall or by some other service, might even be /etc/hosts.deny
[10:07] <greppy> !ask | Darkc0der
[10:08] <ubuntusage> Darkc0der: I repeat what ubottu just said ;)
[10:08] <sitalkas> i have set no keyes to the computer for ssh. i must do that before i connect?
[10:08] <Darkc0der> Okay i am wanting to run a Program called "Paltalk" they have a actually program that runs on windows and a web based version of it, Wine has problems running it so i tried using the web based version but it keeps crashing, I have Flash installed so i am not sure whats going on.
[10:09] <Dr_Willis> sitalkas:  it should generate them if needed
[10:09] <psycho_oreos> sitalkas: you don't really need keys for it, there is host keys which will be available on connect then there is auth keys which can be generated for password-less login (which I don't have any experience in)
[10:09] <Dr_Willis> Darkc0der:  sounds similer to 'meebo' web site
[10:10] <ubuntusage> Darkc0der: I guess Paltak is just an IM, so y cant you go for Pidgin/Empathy which is supported by Ubuntu?
[10:10] <sitalkas> ;) for now when i will have more questions, that i bet i will, u'll be hearing from me again. thank you all
[10:10] <Darkc0der> I use paltalk a lot and their website confirms that it works on on Mac/Linux, the web based anyways
[10:11] <ubuntusage> Darkc0der: which version of ubuntu you are on at?.
[10:11] <bt5> what about netgear wg311v3 in backtrack?
[10:11] <Darkc0der> Latest,  Ubuntu 11.04
[10:12] <SwedeMike> Darkc0der: #ubuntu+1 for non-relased versions.
[10:12] <psycho_oreos> !ubuntu+1| Darkc0der
[10:12] <psycho_oreos> bt5: that has nothing to do with ubuntu
[10:12] <ubuntusage> Darkc0der:Ubuntu 11.04 is still on testing phase, it snot stable, Recommends you to use 10.10/10.04
[10:12] <Darkc0der> That's what it says in my about ubuntu
[10:13] <Darkc0der> I'm a newb to linux, i know lol.
[10:13] <SwedeMike> otoh there is a bug that makes ubuntu 10.10 say it's 11.04 though
[10:14] <Darkc0der> I downloaded the 10.04 or i forgot but i know it was 10 and not 11
[10:14] <psycho_oreos> SwedeMike: would lsb_release be also affected by the same bug?
[10:14] <AbhiJit> !manual | Darkc0der
[10:14] <Dr_Willis> Darkc0der:  those IM clients/special things fr windows can be very hard to gt going in Linux with wine.  theres otehr ways to IM/chat with people.
[10:14] <sitalkas> Darkc0der: if u r new to linux, as i am, try the most tested versions
[10:14] <alaing> how do i check if ubuntu firewall is blocking packets
[10:14] <alaing> a particular port
[10:15] <psycho_oreos> alaing: sudo iptables -L
[10:15] <Darkc0der> Any way for me to downgrade or is this just a bug
[10:15] <AbhiJit> alaing, sudo ufw policy
[10:15] <Dr_Willis> Darkc0der:  not eveything works in wine.. thats just life. the wine app database Might give some tips on gettting the program working
[10:15] <Dr_Willis> !appdb | Darkc0der
[10:15] <fandyst> hy guys
[10:15] <battleground> hi all!
[10:15] <ubuntusage> alaing:ufw is ubuntu firewall, check ufw policy as Abhijit said
[10:16] <Darkc0der> I know, but i was talking about their web based version of it, express.paltalk.com
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> Darkc0der:  and i do not suggest trying 11.04 at this time.
[10:16] <alaing> i did sudo ufw policy but it could not find it and gave me a load of commands
[10:16] <ubuntusage> alaing: iptables -L -n | more will also help yuo
[10:16] <ubuntusage> alaing: thats ufw help
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> Darkc0der:  meebo.com (i think) is also a web-based multi-im client you may want to try
[10:17] <AbhiJit> alaing, sudo ufw status
[10:17] <battleground> here's my question: I see some wireless networks in net.manag. and I was thinking if one could find out about those routers external ip?
[10:17] <ubuntusage> Darkc0der:  meebo works fine with Ubuntu, I have dome many video chats with it
[10:17] <sanziana> hi everyone, I'm looking for touchfreeze but I can't find it.........
[10:17] <rootgshkwm> ctcp %2 VERSION
[10:17] <alaing> status inactive
[10:18] <alaing> does that mean all ports are beign allowed in?
[10:18] <AbhiJit> NO
[10:18] <alaing> and nother is being blocked
[10:18] <AbhiJit> THAT MEANS FIREWALL IS NOT RUNNING
[10:18] <AbhiJit> sorry for caps
[10:18] <alaing> so no firewall means nothing being blocked
[10:18] <AbhiJit> yes
[10:18] <ubuntusage> alaing:must be, as long as you can see no results in 'sudo  iptables -L -n | more' you can make sure there is no rule that is blocking the packets
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> by default theres no firewall rules = nothing blocked
[10:19] <AbhiJit> alaing, man ufw
[10:19] <alaing> thanks
[10:19] <fandyst> ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:19] <battleground> anyone?
[10:20] <Dr_Willis> battleground:  i dont think thats possible.
[10:21] <battleground> so i Was thinking, but I was trying to figure out... what about wireshark, would it show packets "flying" to that ip? never tryed that before...
[10:21] <fsv> anyone can tell me the shipped blender version?
[10:21] <red2kic> Sure -- If you're scanning in the lan?
[10:21] <Gnea> battleground: so try it and see what happens
[10:21] <AbhiJit> fsv, shipped in what?
[10:21] <Gnea> !info blender | fsv
[10:22] <ubuntusage> fsc: with ubuntu studio?
[10:22] <fsv> ah thanks
[10:22] <battleground> I can't right now, that's why I'm asking here....
[10:22] <Gnea> battleground: there's not much use in asking, you'll need to try it and see for yourself
[10:22] <alaing> can you ping a specifc port?
[10:22] <fandyst> ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:23] <Gnea> battleground: why can't you install it right now?
[10:23] <battleground> ok, leave wireshark... So, there's no other option you guys could think of?
[10:23] <ubuntusage> alaing: you could telnet to that port to see if its open or not
[10:23] <staff_nowa> hi reconfigured apache and nginx with this example http://server-tuning.info/nginx/apache-frontend.html and now trying connect to our php script and then i connect nginx don't get images and send all to apache. why ?
[10:23] <Gnea> battleground: what is it you want to do, exactly?
[10:23] <ubuntusage> alaing: like telnet localhost 22
[10:24] <Gnea> staff_nowa: you probably want to ask in #apache or #httpd
[10:24] <Kranix> How do you write a script to execute two terminal commands?
[10:24] <battleground> I don't want to do anything, just asking out of couriosity.
[10:24] <Q|> Hey guys.  I use a 2nd X display to play games on, in a lower resolution then the main X server (1920x1200 main, 1024x768 2nd). Problem is, the visible area is shifted to the LEFT side. Any ideas how to fix and where this error comes from?
[10:25] <Gnea> battleground: if there's no purpose to it then there's no point in asking.
[10:25] <alaing> ubuntusage: can i do that from win 7?
[10:25] <red2kic> Kranix: "scriptone && scripttwo" --or-- "scriptone ; scripttwo" -- depends on how you want it.
[10:25] <Q|> The shift is not visible with 1920x1200, just with the lower resolution btw
[10:25] <ubuntusage> :alaing: yes
[10:25] <Gnea> Q|: so you're running 2 different X servers?
[10:26] <alaing> i tried itin cmd and it recon it could not find telnet
[10:26] <Gnea> red2kic, Kranix: using &&, scripttwo would only run once scriptone finished running successfully
[10:26] <Q|> Gnea, yes, I login into an GNOME session and then run this: ck-launch-session xinit $HOME/startwow.sh -- :1 -screen WoW, while startwow.sh has this in it: exec twm
[10:27] <battleground> Gnea, can some things be left in theory? I just couldn't find the answer in google, so that's why I came here, that's it.
[10:27] <ubuntusage> alaing: which windows you are using, I just tried on windows 2003 server, xp and win 7
[10:27] <Gnea> Q|: nice. have you looked at the logfile in /var/log/ yet? should be something like /var/log/Xorg.1.log
[10:27] <battleground> (can't try wireshark now, I don't have admin acount).
[10:27] <Q|> Gnea, nope, not yet, but I'll take a look at it now, thanks. brb
[10:27] <alaing> win 7 64 bit home prem
 in #apache don't answer because there no people. Only bot's
[10:28] <staff_nowa> :D
[10:28] <Kranix> Haven't actually tried writing a script before, I want it to execute cd /home/magnus/.megaglest followed by glestsvn.bin, how would I write that?
[10:28] <Gnea> battleground: perhaps, but I'm not one to dabble in theory, perhaps someone else can
[10:28] <ubuntusage> aliang: http://www.fettesps.com/windows-7-enable-telnet/
[10:28] <Zara> hello
[10:29] <battleground> I've got your point, that's why I leave the question open.
[10:29] <Dr_Willis> Kranix:  check some bash scriptng tutorials.. that would be like 3 lines total in a scipt..
[10:29] <Kranix> Okay, I will.
[10:29] <Dr_Willis> Kranix:  #!/bin/bash,  cd /whatever/    , ./thecommandtorun
[10:29] <Gnea> staff_nowa: so, obviously, #httpd :)
  sended thank you :)
[10:30] <alaing> brb
[10:34] <nfrs> I've got a mystery here. "ssh user@localip" works fine. however, "scp user@localip:/path ." apparently interprets localip as a domain name!
[10:34] <Q|> Gnea, no errors in there, but I spotted that it seems to use some old CRT-0 device, which was my old config, but now it's an LCD which has it's own entry generated automagically. To tackle the problem from another side since I have some custom entries in xorg.conf which might be outdated: How can I re-create it automagically?
[10:34] <aioobe> I would really like gkrellm to stick to the right, and to be "excluded" from the rest of the window management. That is, I would like to "shrink" the desktop used for the remaining windows... Is it possible to configure awesome this way?
[10:34] <Q|> Gnea, I already tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg, but that seems to do nothin (no output, xorg.conf not changed)
[10:34] <Kranix> What application do you set .sh files to open with for running them?
[10:35] <ubuntusage> nfrs: you didnt mention the file to be copied
[10:35] <aioobe> actually, like this screen-shot: http://files.roguelazer.com/screenshots/caveofbirds-2009-03-29.png
[10:35] <ubuntusage> nfrs: it shoud be like scp file_name ser@localip:/path
[10:35] <guntbert> battleground: as this is  a support channel "theoretical" questions are somewhat off topic here - there is always #ubuntu-offtopic though
[10:35] <ubuntusage> nfrs: it shoud be like scp file_name user@localip:/path
[10:35] <nfrs> ubuntulog: no, the command I gave was fine as I wrote it (assuming /path leads to a file, which it does)
[10:36] <battleground> ok, never mind. bye.
[10:36] <nfrs> ubuntusage: ^
[10:36] <ubuntusage> nfrs:  ;)
[10:36] <bc81> hi.  should i download the adobe-flashplugin, or the flashplugin-installer?  i'm confused :/
[10:38] <ubuntusage> bc81:adobe-flashplugin ofcourse I guess
[10:39] <bc81> ubuntusage, hehe i guess so too ;-)
[10:40] <nfrs> ubuntusage: debug1: Connecting to LOCAL_IP [<IP_ADDRESS>] port 22.
[10:40] <DasEi> bc81: on a fresh install, use ubuntu-restricted-extras, so  you get the bunch of other codecs& fonts with you in on run
[10:40] <bc81> DasEi, ok, i'll try that thanks
[10:40] <Dr_Willis> the installer - does the downloading for you
[10:40] <nfrs> ubuntusage: <IP_ADDRESS> is an OpenDNS ip, which is what I use for dns
[10:41] <nfrs> ubuntusage: which makes me think that scp tried to resolve LOCAL_IP at opendns, and opendns returned its generic error ip address in response
[10:42] <Dr_Willis> Kranix:  a .sh couldbe a shell script or a gui app. so it wouldebnt make a lot of sence. if they are executable they should 'run' with no default app - i think.
[10:42] <Dr_Willis> aioobe:  its possible compiz can do that. but i really never have liked gkrellm
[10:43] <ubuntusage> nfrs:I see, you checked for host entries too?
[10:43] <Dr_Willis> aioobe:  i thought gkrellm had a panel mode that kept windows from covevering it.
[10:43] <Kranix> I used "open with other application" and selected gedit so I could edit it, but now it just opens in notepad if I double click it even though it's marked as executable...
[10:44] <Dr_Willis> Kranix:  right click, see if thers a run item.
[10:44] <nfrs> ubuntulog: /etc/hosts has nothing with that
[10:44] <nfrs> (with LOCAL_IP)
[10:44] <Kranix> Looks like I accidentally unchecked the "allow executing file as program" button.
[10:44] <nfrs> ubuntusage: ^
[10:44] <nfrs> ubuntusage: also, ping LOCAL_IP works fine, too
[10:46] <ubuntusage> nfrs: local IP is your machine IP itself or some other IP in your LAN?
[10:46] <nfrs> ubuntulog: the latter
[10:46] <nfrs> ubuntulog: 10.0.0.XYZ
[10:47] <Dr_Willis> aioobe:  gkrellm does have a panel mode, that keeps windows from going over it..  you have to enable the mode, then restart gkrellm
[10:47] <nfrs> ubuntusage: ^
[10:48] <nfrs> ubuntusage: you really should change your nick name :)
[10:48] <ubuntusage> nfrs: haha maybe ;)
[10:49] <ubuntusage> nfrs: wats with log and sage? couldnt  find any similarity ;)
[10:49] <guntbert> !tab | ubuntusage we are lazy :-)
[10:50] <Icky> having issues with power manager, when plugged in it doesn't recognize that i am plugged in. when i unplug it doesn't recognize i am unplugged unless go to system > preferences > power management
[10:50] <Kranix> If I run the script normally nothing happens, if I run it in the terminal it closes down instantly...
[10:50] <ubuntusage> ubottu: ahh, first time here ;) I should look into help pages ;)
[10:51] <ubuntusage> guntbert: is not a bot I guess ;)
[10:51] <guntbert> !bot | ubuntusage :-)
[10:53] <tintumon> hai everybodyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
[10:53] <NeedsHelpWithFan> hello everyone, can anyone help me with getting my fans to appear on sensors?
[10:53] <ubuntusage> tintumon: malayali?
[10:54] <tintumon> ubuntusage :athe
[10:54] <ubuntusage> tintumon: kollam ;)
[10:54] <tintumon> ubuntusage :nthu kollam enna?
[10:55] <Athiest_Monk> ubuntusage: lol
[10:55] <guntbert> !ot | tintumon ubuntusage
[10:55] <NeedsHelpWithFan> i'm using an asus a8js laptop and i've installed the asusfans package, lm-sensors still doesn't show my fans and I'm unable to control the fans so it is overheating whenever i'm doing anything strenuous on the laptop. Can anyone help me please?
[10:55] <tintumon> ubuntusage : know how to connect android 2.1 fon as a modem?
[10:56] <NeedsHelpWithFan> i forgot to say i'm using ubuntu server
[10:56] <Q|> Gnea, hey, thx for the tip with the log file. Didn't fix it quite yet, but I have a pointer where to start. Gotta go and will try my luck laater on. Thx so far and have a nice day :)
[10:56] <ubuntusage> tintumon: I have no idea about it :(
[10:57] <AbhiJit> where can i contact for dead ubuntu translation team?
[10:57] <asyraff> why my linux does not detect my usb
[10:57] <asyraff> ???
[10:57] <ubuntusage> asyraff:  checked with sudo fdisk -l
[10:57] <tintumon> anybdy know hw to connect asdroid 2.1 fonas a modem?
[10:57] <psycho_oreos> asyraff: exactly what sort of USB are we talking about?
[10:57] <sta7ic> asyraff: try, lsusb
[10:57] <NeedsHelpWithFan> my laptop temperature is at 70 degrees celsius already.......... help please T.T
[10:58] <Scott`> turn it off :/
[10:58] <Dr_Willis> tintumon:  as a dial up modem? I just teather the pc to mine and use it as a gateway
[10:58] <tintumon> Need:using compaq?
[10:58] <sta7ic> NeedsHelpWithFan: laptop cooler?
[10:58] <NeedsHelpWithFan> I'm using Asus A8JS
[10:58] <asyraff> ubuntusage, my pendrive is not listed in the fdisk...
[10:58] <Dr_Willis> Its possible the 'server' kernel dosent have the proper modules/settings NeedsHelpWithFan
[10:58] <tintumon> Dr_Willis, ya i tried it but no support for im
[10:58] <NeedsHelpWithFan> there is a cooler there now yes it'll auto turn itself off when it reaches 100+ abit
[10:58] <Dr_Willis> tintumon:  no support for what?
[10:59] <oCean> AbhiJit: maybe start in #ubuntu-locoteams ?
[10:59] <tintumon> NeedsHelpWithFan, using compaq?
[10:59] <red2kic> NeedsHelpWithFan: I'm lazy. I have a little HTPC machine that have no fans. I need to buy 40x40mm. Meanwhile, I use a regular fan to blow on it. Works great.
[10:59] <tintumon> Dr_Willis, instant messaging softwares and im sites
[10:59] <asyraff> psycho_oreos, pendrive
[10:59] <Dr_Willis> tintumon:  err.. if i teather my pc  to my phone.. its the same as if i was on any other network...
 i'm using asus
[10:59] <AbhiJit> oCean, ok
 If I run the script normally nothing happens, if I run it in the terminal it closes down instantly...
[10:59] <psycho_oreos> asyraff: as sta7ic said, it will be seen there along with `sudo fdisk -l'
[10:59] <ubuntusage> asyraff: pendrive is functioning are you sure? and which is ur OS?
 can i load the proper modules?
 yes it is sitting on a laptopcooler now
[11:00] <tintumon> Dr_Willis, wt u mean?
[11:00] <Dr_Willis> NeedsHelpWithFan:  no idea. i dont use the server edition. Youmay want to try the live cd/desktop edition . or even the 11.04 testing  to see if the fans work there.
[11:00] <chris_ubu> hi
[11:00] <asyraff> sta7ic, erm...it detects my kingston...but there are no device in the computer
[11:00] <psycho_oreos> tintumon: by tethering he meant connecting your phone to your computer via USB
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> tintumon: ive no idea what you are meaning. If i 'tether' my PC -> android phone.. my PC is able to run any internet apps same as if i was connected  normally (via cable modem for example)
[11:01] <asyraff> ubuntusage, im using ubuntu 10.10
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> psycho_oreos:  actually its using wireless :)
[11:01] <psycho_oreos> asyraff: use something like gparted to see the disk, it might not even be formatted
[11:01] <NeedsHelpWithFan> Dr_Willis the fans turn on now and then, but i think because sensors are reporting the high and critical temperature to be both at 100degrees celsius, the laptop gets to that temperature then starts the fan and dies because it can't cool off fast enough
[11:01] <tintumon> Dr_Willis, i trieds usb tethering but its only possible with easytether
[11:01] <psycho_oreos> Dr_Willis: bluetooth? or as hotspot AP?
[11:01] <tintumon> psycho_oreos, ya
[11:01] <psycho_oreos> tintumon: so whats wrong with easytether?
[11:02] <Dr_Willis> psycho_oreos:  it can do bt. but ive never tried thast yet.  working as wireless ap. but Ubutu seems to have some issues with ad-hoc networking :(
[11:02] <NeedsHelpWithFan> Dr_Willis Core 0:      +65.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
[11:02] <tintumon> psycho_oreos, no support for im
[11:02] <tintumon> psycho_oreos, any soln?
[11:02] <psycho_oreos> Dr_Willis: ahh yeah that's the typical norm with ad-hoc networking which is what phones are mostly restricted to
[11:02] <asyraff> psycho_oreos, i have been formatted...if i plug in my usb and restart my laptop...then it will detect my usb...
[11:02] <NeedsHelpWithFan> can anyone help me change my sensors temperature setting ? its currently showing Core 0:      +65.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)   and I'm suspecting its overheating because it only starts the fan at the high temperature of 100
[11:03] <oCean> NeedsHelpWithFan: maybe someone in #ubuntu-server has experience with the asusfans package on -server ?
[11:03] <chris_ubu> I need some help with repairing/re-installing 10.10 ----the computer was updating when it froze and (to make a long story short) the computer cannot boot and gets stuck with a message saying "kernel panic"
[11:03] <tintumon> Dr_Willis, are using android 2.1 or 2.2?
[11:03] <psycho_oreos> tintumon: I don't understand how does IM has anything to do with tethering, you mean you can't use stuff like pidgin on the computer?
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> psycho_oreos:  but the thing thats odd about tintumon  is he SEEMS to be saying 'it works - but not for instant messanging programs'  wich is weird.
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> tintumon:  2.1 at this time.
 thanks, i'll try that chnanel
[11:03] <tintumon> Dr_Willis, did u connect ur fon to ubuntu?
[11:03] <psycho_oreos> asyraff: but not now as it is? hmm what sort of filesystem is it?
[11:03] <tintumon> Dr_Willis, i mean tethering
[11:04] <tintumon> psycho_oreos, ya wt u said is right
[11:04] <asyraff> psycho_oreos, ifat32
[11:04] <psycho_oreos> Dr_Willis: makes no sense to me imo, then again I don't have android and I've tethered without any dramas as well
[11:04] <psycho_oreos> asyraff: ifat32?
[11:04] <TopGear> Hi
[11:04] <asyraff> psycho_oreos, fat32*
[11:04] <tintumon> Dr_Willis, how its possible?
[11:04] <psycho_oreos> asyraff: hmm and when you plugged the flash drive in after the computer has booted, like as in now it doesn't get detected?
[11:05] <TopGear> Whenever I plugin my headset, my speakers still continue playing the music. Is there a way to mute them when my headset is plugged it?
[11:05] <tintumon> Dr_Willis, i connected fon pc is detected by fon mass storage feature works but no modem support
[11:05] <angrymatter> evil chrashes with ubuntu. harddisk light stays on. everything frozen. is this a normal chrash ? could It be related to Chromium ?
[11:05] <asyraff> psycho_oreos, it will detect if i boot my pc
[11:06] <psycho_oreos> asyraff: but not now, even if you unplug it and plug it back in?
[11:06] <Dr_Willis> tintumon:  you normally tell the phone to use USB mass storage OR to not use it... it cant do data-connection and usb storage at the same time
[11:06] <asyraff> psycho_oreos, yup...for now....i have plug in several times and still the same...i have tried my other usb too...
[11:07] <Dr_Willis> tintumon:  i dont need a usb cable to get my pc to th internet via my phone. :)
[11:07] <psycho_oreos> asyraff: hmm I'll need the last few lines of your dmesg output.. pastebin (not paste) your `dmesg| tail -20'
[11:08] <tintumon> Dr_Willis, i tried using cable enabled usb debugging
[11:08] <NeedsHelpWithFan> I'm running ubuntu server on an Asus A8JS laptop and I can't seem to control the fans and it overheats everytime it does anything strenuous. currently i get the temperature reading of http://paste.ubuntu.com/554669/ I've tried installing the asusfans package and lm-sensors but I'm unable to get my fans to cool my machine down before it reaches the critical temps and turn itself off
[11:09] <asyraff> psycho_oreos, how can i show you?
[11:09] <ubutom> NeedsHelpWithFan, be sure to check your BIOS for Fan options too
 I have tried that. The bios doesn't seem to have any fan options T.T
 does my sensors output look correct? I don't see any fans on it at all
[11:10] <asyraff> ?
[11:10] <psycho_oreos> asyraff: you will need to open up terminal and then type in: `dmesg| tail -20' (without quotes) and copy and paste the output from the terminal into websites like pastebin.com
[11:10] <psycho_oreos> you then paste me the link of the paste you just pasted
[11:10] <ubutom> NeedsHelpWithFan, hmm, usually there is some option had one that was like performance and lower settings on a fujitsu siemens thing, sorry don't know much about sensors
[11:11] <asyraff> psycho_oreos, done...then?
[11:11] <psycho_oreos> asyraff: I need the link of the pasted output, from your address bar
[11:11] <asyraff> http://pastebin.com/STgBVTqH
yes, i have set my processors to be scaled down to power saving instead of 'on demand' is that what you're refering to?
[11:12] <ubutom> NeedsHelpWithFan, yeah, there was some similar thing only for the fans in BIOS, but I guess that depends on the model
[11:12] <psycho_oreos> asyraff: ubuntu detects it, but its failing to see the USB device as a storage device, how old is the device?
[11:13] <tintumon> Dr_Willis, any help?
[11:13] <NeedsHelpWithFan> ubutom sigh i've been trying to resolve this temperature issue for weeks now
[11:13] <asyraff> psycho_oreos, yup...i get this device last year...still new
[11:13] <NeedsHelpWithFan> is there any way I can change the high and critical temperature setting on 'sensors' ?
[11:14] <Delphius> BIOS settings
[11:14] <ubutom> NeedsHelpWithFan, sorry to hear that, maybe the fans are blocked with dust?
[11:14] <Dr_Willis> tintumon:  i dont use a cable to teather mine. I use wireless. so  you may want to ask in #android
[11:14] <psycho_oreos> asyraff: hmm have you subject it to any sort of torture? like through water or slightly bent the USB head?
[11:14] <iami> whois ubutom
[11:15] <ubutom> whois iami
[11:15] <asyraff> psycho_oreos, nope...i have tried it with my other pendrives too
[11:15] <NeedsHelpWithFan> ubutom thats actually one avenue i haven't checked.  i'll open her up and check tomorrow after i buy a can of compressed air.  I just find it weird why it overheats in ubuntu whilst in win2k server it doesn't. And they're running almost identical amount of software.
[11:15] <psycho_oreos> asyraff: what about other USB ports on the machine?
[11:16] <asyraff> psycho_oreos, still same...O_o
[11:16] <NeedsHelpWithFan> asyraff have u tried powering off and on the device?
[11:16] <NeedsHelpWithFan> asyraff also, have u tried it on a windows machine?
[11:16] <tintumon> Dr_Willis, is it hotspot?
[11:17] <asyraff> NeedsHelpWithFan, if i turn off, it will detect my usb but if possible i dont want to restart my pc
[11:17] <asyraff> NeedsHelpWithFan, yup...in windows machine...it detects my pendrive
[11:18] <ubutom> NeedsHelpWithFan, yep, that sounds like windows is doing something different. Laptops are a bit tricky because every manufacturer has some other acpi thing going on, that's also the reason why people need to turn off certain things for livecds to work very often
[11:18] <NeedsHelpWithFan> asyraff have you checked if it is mounted on /media/?
[11:18] <Dr_Willis> tintumon:  yes. thats how i use my phone. as a wireless adhoc network hotspot.
[11:18] <asyraff> NeedsHelpWithFan, hurm...its empty...
[11:19] <NeedsHelpWithFan> ubuntom yeah, i've been reading the acpi stuff and tryhing a whole bunch of diff things.
[11:19] <NeedsHelpWithFan> ubuntom i might try installing envyNG to see if it'll detect my graphic card's fan
[11:19] <tintumon> Dr_Willis, bt no adhoc option is available 4 me
[11:20] <TopGear> Whenever I plugin my headset, my speakers still continue playing the music. Is there a way to mute them when my headset is plugged it?
[11:20] <NeedsHelpWithFan> asyraff check System->Administration->Disk Utility
[11:20] <NeedsHelpWithFan> asyraff if your pendrive is there it should show up on the left pane
[11:20] <qdii> hey
[11:21] <qdii> how can I active metacity ON BOOT on ubuntu 10.10
[11:21] <NeedsHelpWithFan> asyraff click on the disk to see if it is mounted, it may be detected but if it is not mounted you can't really access it or see it.
[11:21] <asyraff> NeedsHelpWithFan, only hard disk and cd drive...
[11:21] <qdii> rather than the current wm ?
[11:21] <almoxarife> does it serve any purpose to have the virtual headers with a generic kernel?
[11:21] <suelen> ola pessoal nao to conseguindo personalizar o grub, instalei o burg manager mas naum funciona
[11:21] <NeedsHelpWithFan> asyraff so when you plug it in, there is no response from ur machine at all?
[11:21] <psycho_oreos> !br| suelen
[11:21] <Abhinav1> how to check which graphic driver I am using ?
[11:21] <psycho_oreos> Abhinav1: lspci -nnk
[11:22] <asyraff> NeedsHelpWithFan, yup...
[11:22] <rusty149> asyraff: pastebin, lsusb
[11:22] <psycho_oreos> almoxarife: doubt it
[11:22] <chris_ubu> hello?
[11:22] <NeedsHelpWithFan> asyraff you should check if the pen drive is encrypted in any way
[11:22] <oCean> asyraff: is usb_storage loaded (in output of lsmod | grep usb)
[11:22] <psycho_oreos> !hi| chris_ubu
[11:22] <NeedsHelpWithFan> asyraff what filesystem is the pendrive on?
[11:23] <chris_ubu> is there a way of refreshing/rewing an installation from a CD?
[11:23] <psycho_oreos> NeedsHelpWithFan: he said it was fat32
[11:23] <chris_ubu> renewing
[11:23] <NeedsHelpWithFan> o ok then fat32 should be fine
