[00:00] <blackshirt> airtonix: i think you need reconfigure xorg.conf by hand
[00:00] <guampa> it should report "open"
[00:00] <kismet> airtonix, guampa thx I'll try those
[00:00] <airtonix> kismet, to allow incoming on port 9160 you need to use this : sudo ufw allow in on eth0 to any port 9160
[00:00] <airtonix> kismet, assuming the interface is eth0
[00:01] <airtonix> jigarnilam, what kind of nvidia gpu do you have ?
[00:01] <Nadav> what is the ip ad command do?
[00:01] <Nadav> requests a new ip from the dhcp server? like ipconfig /renew
[00:01] <Nadav> ?
[00:01] <airtonix> Nadav, man ip ad
[00:01] <kismet> airtonix, sudo ufw status gives me inactive
[00:01] <airtonix> (read it)
[00:01] <airtonix> kismet, keep reading the rest of what i typed
[00:02] <guampa> Nadav: you mean dhclient <interface> ?
[00:02] <kismet> airtonix, thanks
[00:02] <Nadav> no, I mean ip ad
[00:02] <betamine> kismet: try 'nmap <IP_ADDRESS>' to check if port is open
[00:02] <kismet> betamine, on the same machine
[00:03] <Amacidia> blackshirt: nope, will do that right now
[00:03] <betamine> kismet: <IP_ADDRESS> is the loopback address
[00:04] <fatharrahman1> hello

[00:06] <zetheroo> last couple days I am having issues connecting to certain pages in Ubuntu ... Windows works fine ... I think Java is the culprit ....
[00:07] <Docfxit> Hi everyone,
[00:07] <betamine> kismet: What programme are you using to connect?
[00:07] <xangua> and do you have any ubuntu support related question¿ fatharrahman1 , if english is not your native language you can try other channel
[00:07] <zetheroo> I went to the Java test page and it said that I don't have the latest update ... could this be why?
[00:07] <kismet> it is a java client & in terminal a cassandra-cli
[00:07] <Docfxit> I have a folder that is shared in Ubuntu
[00:08] <blackshirt> xangua: a lot of people here not natively speak in english.. i think it was not a problem
[00:08] <xangua> zetheroo: are you using the latest ubuntu version¿
[00:08] <zetheroo> xangua: yep
[00:08] <zetheroo> xangua: fully updated too
[00:08] <zetheroo> xangua: this just started 2 days ago
[00:09] <xangua> and did you install java or open jdk¿
[00:09] <zetheroo> xangua: Java
[00:09] <xangua> zetheroo: then you will have to wait until latest version is aviable in repositories
[00:09] <fatharrahman1> hello
[00:09] <studentz> help    I'm in login Screen. I type my pssw but I'm going back to the login screen. My pass is right.

[00:14] <rockingwing> heya
[00:14] <rockingwing> somebody here who could help me with installing java?
[00:14] <bazhang> eroby, the cd from shipit?
[00:14] <airtonix> kismet, obviously
[00:14] <bazhang> rockingwing, enable partner repo
[00:14] <airtonix> kismet, you need to open ports
[00:14]  * Skapare looks around
[00:15] <bazhang> !partner | rockingwing
[00:15] <airtonix> kismet, was that not obvious?
[00:15] <eroby> @bazhang wht?
[00:15] <bazhang> eroby, you want a cd shipped to you?
[00:15] <airtonix> kismet, sudo ufw allow in on eth0 to any port 22
[00:15] <kismet> airtonix, uhm after a sec of thinking yes... ;) do u know the port for ssh
[00:15] <Vrejdac> ?join #ubuntu-fr
[00:15] <studentz> Could I have the same problem.
[00:15] <bazhang> !java > rockingwing
[00:15] <betamine> kismet: 22
[00:16] <eroby> for java
[00:16] <raskol> Every time I reboot I have to run xinput to turn off emulate3buttons. Way back in the day you could edit xorg.conf, what's currently the way to save this and similar settings?
[00:16] <bazhang> eroby, a cd for java?
[00:16] <paper> im a nube looking for help but first of all hello
[00:16] <kismet> betamine, thx
[00:16] <eroby> no for Ubuntu 10.10
[00:16] <iamis> what flush-8:0 how to remove it from cpu usage
[00:16] <Skapare> 22 is the default for ssh ... but you'd best change that to something obscure if you want to open it to the whole internet
[00:17] <bazhang> eroby, you can download it from www.ubuntu.com , or ask shipit to send you a cd
[00:17] <eroby> shipit??
[00:17] <bazhang> !shipit > eroby
[00:17] <studentz> Please Help ..... I cannot get  access neither into gnome or xterm. My passw is right.
[00:17] <betamine> kismet: see if the the server software is listening on port: sudo 'lsof -i:$PORT'
[00:18] <paper> what do i do with a .tar.gz file once downloaded?
[00:18] <Pici> Skapare: No need really. I highly suggest installing fail2ban with ssh, as it will ban any host that fails to authenticate a set number of times.  And it works as soon as you install, no extra config needed
[00:18] <betamine> correction: sudo -i:$PORT
[00:18] <eroby> 10k you
[00:18] <bazhang> paper, a tar.gz of what
[00:18] <betamine> correction1: sudo lsof -i:$PORT :)
[00:18] <paper> anything i dont know how to install
[00:18] <elvirolo> hi
[00:19] <kismet> betamine, sudo lsof -i:$9160 gives me noo output
[00:19] <FrozenFire[work]> intrader, Have you tried removing the fstab entry? The filesystem should automatically be detected and mounted. Perhaps it's some of the settings in fstab, such as the *mask options, may be mucking about with your permissions.
[00:19] <elvirolo> I'd like to report a bug but I don't know which package it's coming from, how do i do that ?
[00:19] <betamine> remove dollar sign
[00:19] <bazhang> paper, use the package manager to install, not tar.gz from the internet
[00:19] <kismet> jsvc    719 root   39u  IPv6   4512      0t0  TCP localhost:9160 (LISTEN)
[00:19] <paper> is the a way or something i could read?
[00:20] <betamine> kismet: and jsvc is the name of the app?
[00:20] <bazhang> paper, sure, but it would be helpful if you explained what package you wished to install first.
[00:20] <FrozenFire[work]> intrader, Beyond that, I can't fathom what the problem would be.
[00:20] <paper> its a cgi proxy
[00:20] <thunkee> paper: tar tvzf <file>
[00:20] <kismet> betamine, could be... it is a java application so i guess it stands for java server bla bla
[00:21] <kismet> betamine, it is cassandra (a database application)
[00:21] <elvirolo> help anyone?
[00:22] <betamine> kismet: If I had to guess I'd say the problem is in your cassandra configuration
[00:22] <studentz> Help me I cannot get access neither gnome nor xterm ?
[00:22] <Pici> elvirolo: Tell us what the bug is, maybe we can suggest the package na,e.
[00:22] <Krunal> both kubuntu and ubuntu are the same as far as OS goes correct? Just the GUI is different..KDE vs GNOME? does all software install the same? drivers etc..
[00:23] <kismet> betamine,  Ok I'll have a check.. the funny part is if i am on the same machine i can connect to it... but over the network it doesn't work
[00:23] <Markive> Hi Helpers, is it posible to run kde in ubuntu or is it gnome all the way?
[00:23] <_jesse_> Markive: you can run kde
[00:23] <bazhang> Markive, just install kubuntu-desktop
[00:23] <kismet> betamine, cassandra-cli -host <IP_ADDRESS> -port 9160
[00:23] <bazhang> Krunal, different apps but same under neath
[00:23] <Markive> will I get  some kind of choice or log in menu to pick which gui?
[00:23] <kismet> betamine,  does not work but cassandra-cli -host localhost -port 9160 does from the same machine
[00:23] <bazhang> Markive, yes
[00:23] <_jesse_> Markive: yeah at the login screen you'll choose which session to use
[00:24] <betamine> kismet: check if your router
[00:24] <_jesse_> it's along the bottom
[00:24] <bazhang> Markive, lubuntu-desktop edubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop as well
[00:24] <Markive> _jesse_ and bazhang thankyou very much , merry christmas
[00:24] <elvirolo> Pici, well actually, some applets (namely gnome-power-manager and nm-applet) and programs (skype) don't launch themselves at startup, although their names are check in the system -> preferences -> start up apps dialog
[00:24] <kismet> betamine, i can connect to each machine via ssh... and from each machine to the other one vie ssh and ping works between those machines as welll
[00:25] <Krunal> bazhang, the reason why i ask because i installed ubuntu 10.10 and it picked up my wirelesss NIC, kubuntu did not
[00:26] <Skapare> anyone know how/where to configure X to disregard mouse wheel rolling, while still leaving the middle button (in the wheel) working?
[00:27] <Skapare> even better if it can be configured to do this only in terminal windows
[00:27] <Irreducibilis> So today I had to fix my wubi-installed 10.04 installation, because an update broke grub. And this led me to realize that it's probably time to migrate to a full dual-boot install.
[00:28] <wowaname> Question: I have .fr-FA3QBx, .fr-ILEeDq, and .fr-M21DNz directories in /Pictures... Are these necessary?
[00:28] <Irreducibilis> My question is, what is the best way to go about doing this? I understand that 10.04 cannot be converted to a full install on its own, so I am mostly concerned with this: What "can" be backed up, and what is the safest way to resize my windows partition such that I don't lose anything?
[00:29] <frobicat> hm
[00:29] <betamine> kismet: are the other computers windows or linux btw
[00:29] <fatharrahman1> hello
[00:29] <Dr_Willis> Irreducibilis:  if you use a live cd with the right tools. and a usb hard drive. you could image the whole HD to a usb hd. :) but that  may need a rather big usbhd
[00:30] <elvirolo> I'm sorry to insist, but I reinstalled maverick from scratch, and I'm still experiencin the same bug
[00:31] <Irreducibilis> I have such a thing on hand.
[00:31] <Markive> _jesse_ is the package i'm looking for is kde called "kde-full" ?
[00:31] <wowaname> Did anyone hear my question?
[00:32] <wowaname> or is everyone busy
[00:32] <wowaname> i'll wait :P
[00:32] <Irreducibilis> wowaname, I honestly... I dont think its really needed
[00:32] <wowaname> ok
[00:32] <betamine> kismet: a hacky workaround is to use an ssh tunnel
[00:32] <Irreducibilis> But someone else should answer
[00:32] <Irreducibilis> I'm not extremely linux-skilled.
[00:32] <wowaname> for some reason all they contain is my tree all over again
[00:32] <wowaname> full sized
[00:32] <wowaname> actually, just /documents/....
[00:32] <_jesse_> Markive: nah, do kubuntu-desktop
[00:33] <elijah> Is there a way I can double click a .dmg file and have it mount?
[00:33] <wowaname> Lol dmg
[00:33] <_jesse_> hehe
[00:33] <wowaname> isn't that mac?
[00:33] <Irreducibilis> If its nothing but empty folders, then feel free to remove.
[00:33] <wowaname> It's not empty folders... it's ...
[00:33] <Irreducibilis> Configuration files of some kind, I'd keep it
[00:33] <wowaname> hold on
[00:34] <wowaname> /home/wowaname/Pictures/.fr-ILEeDq/My Documents/My Pictures
[00:34] <wowaname> and then
[00:34] <wowaname> it has my pictures
[00:34] <Markive> _jesse_  is it the "Kubuntu Plasma Desktop system"?
[00:34] <studentz> Heeeeeelp  I cannot get access  neither gnome nor xterm  Please  Hel
[00:34] <wowaname> it's probably from windows for some reason
[00:34] <_jesse_> elijah: dmg's are 'image' files in OSX, you can use dmg2img to convert
[00:34] <Irreducibilis> wowaname, I'd keep it there, just to be sure
[00:35] <wowaname> i could rename it and see what happens
[00:35] <_jesse_> Markive: haha I dunno what it's title is, let's see
[00:35] <wowaname> like add a _ at the end
[00:35] <elijah> _jesse_: Does that make another file?
[00:35] <Irreducibilis> What happens to be the best way to resize my windows partition without causing Windows 7 to become unbootable?
[00:35] <_jesse_> Markive: yeah that's it
[00:35] <_jesse_> elijah: yeah
[00:36] <Irreducibilis> So I can migrate from wubi to a full dual boot
[00:36] <Markive> _jesse_ thanks very much for your time 10/10 for the help ;)
[00:36] <Dr_Willis> Irreducibilis:  windows 7 can resize its own partitions.
[00:36] <Irreducibilis> safely?
[00:37] <Dr_Willis> Irreducibilis:  I  find windoes is faster at ressizeing ntfs then linux is.
[00:37] <ringo> need help installing ubuntu on my macbook
[00:37] <mota> partition resizing *always* has an element of danger; always have a backup
[00:37] <Dr_Willis> Irreducibilis:  power failure durin resize = bad. :) be sure to have backups.
[00:37] <ringo> cant figure out how to change the iso file to an img
[00:37] <Irreducibilis> I'll do that then. And I won't lose my Installation then?
[00:37] <Dr_Willis> ringo:  why do you need to do that?
[00:37] <Irreducibilis> It's a laptop, so if the power fails, it will revert to battery. shouldn't be a problem
[00:38] <darkfx559> I need help downloading uBuntu Linux 10.10 Netbook version
[00:38] <Irreducibilis> Thanks.
[00:38] <darkfx559> It's not downloading all the way and I am looking for a mirror
[00:38] <Dr_Willis> darkfx559:  theres always the torrents.
[00:38] <Irreducibilis> And after that, its simply a matter of installing?
[00:38] <darkfx559> Can you redirect me to a torrent please?
[00:38] <Dr_Willis> Irreducibilis:  i resize the windows partitions. leave part of the HD unallocated.. tell installer to use unallocated space normally
[00:38] <Dr_Willis> !download
[00:39] <Dr_Willis> !torrents
[00:39] <_jesse_> Dr_Willis: I think he wants the 'netbook' edition one
[00:39] <_jesse_> ah I see it
[00:39] <Irreducibilis> Thanks. Now can you tell me what is appropreate to back up from the wubi install, to migrate over?
[00:39] <Irreducibilis> Is my home folder enough, or is there anything else
[00:41] <darkfx559> I need the Netbook version of uBuntu though
[00:41] <_jesse_> darkfx559: http://torrent.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-netbook/ports/releases/maverick/release/netbook/ubuntu-netbook-10.10-netbook-armel+dove.img.torrent
[00:41] <darkfx559> Thank you :)
[00:41] <Irreducibilis> darkfx559, they can be switched between as well
[00:42] <darkfx559> Also, on my other netbook, ubuntu isnt recognizing a wireless connection?
[00:43] <Irreducibilis> darkfx559, Is networking disabled? I once had that problem.
[00:43] <wowaname> darkfx559» i had trouble with that... hold on i'll give you a link
[00:43] <wowaname> also
[00:43] <wowaname> what is your card make
[00:43] <darkfx559> everything is enabled
[00:43] <wowaname> mine's broadcom... if you dont have that i may not be able to help :/
[00:43] <wowaname> i'd say
[00:43] <wowaname> just google around till you find something that may work
[00:43] <wowaname> try it
[00:43] <wowaname> it most likely will work
[00:43] <darkfx559> I have
[00:43] <FloodBot1> wowaname: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:43] <darkfx559> nothing I have found has worked
[00:44] <wowaname> FloodBot1» oh wow

[00:50] <Adiman423> hi everyone
[00:50] <wowaname> hi Adiman423
[00:50] <ad_> a question: is there a version for the netbook ubuntu to install it in win?
[00:50] <Adiman423> I want to configure PHPMyadmin with Mysql on ubuntu 10.04
[00:51] <c2tha_d>  my display is just a bit too large to fit on my monitor, any help?
[00:51] <Adiman423> I have configured PHP with mysql and apache with php
[00:51] <wowaname> PHPmyadmin
[00:51] <wowaname> oh sorry
[00:51] <FrozenFire[work]> Adiman423, I strongly suggest not using PMA.
[00:51] <wowaname> ^
[00:51] <brophat> can i start the gui from command line/
[00:51] <Adiman423> ok
[00:52] <ad_> is there a wubi version of the netbook ubuntu? :)
[00:52] <ringo> can i install ubuntu 10.10 on a third generation macbook?
[00:52] <FrozenFire[work]> Adiman423, If you need a GUI tool for administrating your database, there is the mysql-admin package.
[00:52] <ringo> i have the most recent version of OSX 10.6.5
[00:52] <Adiman423> ringo, you could do it but you would need virtualbox
[00:52] <Adiman423> right
[00:52] <ringo> what is virtualbox?
[00:53] <Adiman423> Frozenfire: would I then download mysql-admin package from synaptic package manager?
[00:53] <russjr08> ringo: It lets you run an OS on top of your current one
[00:53] <FrozenFire[work]> Adiman423, or Ubuntu Software Centre
[00:53] <Adiman423> exright
[00:54] <vgr> brophat try sudo service gdm start
[00:54] <ringo> russjr08. ok cool. im burning the software onto a CD right now and then im going to TRY the software by booting it from the CD like it says on the website. will that work
[00:55] <russjr08> ringo: What software are you burning? Ubuntu or Virtualbox?
[00:55] <Adiman423> frozenfire, trying that now
[00:55] <ad_> ey, I thought my question to be very simple,  pls may  someone answer?
[00:55] <russjr08> ringo: with virtualbox you don't need to burn the image to a cd
[00:56] <ad_> if there' sa wubi ver of netbook ub.
[00:56] <xangua> ad_: never used wubi, check it's website; also i believe wubi already comes in the ubuntu iso
[00:56] <brophat> vgr i did a startx and it booted wtf?
[00:56] <ad_> k, thx
[00:56] <brophat> it only asked me to keyring password
[00:56] <ringo> russjr08: ubuntu 10.10. i was just following the instructions on ubuntu's website http://www.ubuntu.com/netbook/get-ubuntu/download
[00:56] <brophat> and it worked
[00:56] <c2tha_d>  my display is just a bit too large to fit on my monitor, any help?
[00:56] <brophat> crazy
[00:57] <brophat> vgr you think the problem is it is not dealing withthe keyring when I boot straight into the gui?
[00:57] <russjr08> ringo: You know you don't need to burn the CD if you are going to run Ubuntu in Virtualbox, it can use the .iso file directly
[00:57] <Adiman423> frozenfire: I have good news
[00:57] <intrader> Anyone, here is a http://paste.ubuntu.com/536885/. Hopefully it is clear. It is a major problem for FAT volumes since Nov. 10th on maverick
[00:58] <ringo> russjr08: ok how do i run ubuntu in virtualbox? r there instructions? lol im new to this
[00:58] <russjr08> ringo: Hold on, I will go find some real quick
[00:58] <Adiman423> ringo, you can use youtube
[00:58] <studentz> Help me I'm stucked in login screen I cannot get access neither gnome or xtem.
[00:59] <ringo> russjr08:thanks
[00:59] <vgr> brophat I'm not really sure, I just learned to boot the x-server from the command line after I got the new kernel, and my nvidia driver didn't update along with it.
[00:59] <ringo> russjr08: ill see what i can find on youtube while im waiting for you

[01:00] <Paulo39> hi there. i have a virtual machine. When i was creating it, i specified a size for the virtual disk that now is low. i have to increase virtual disk's size. can i do that? if so, how do i do it?
[01:00] <Paulo39> i'm using virtual box
[01:00] <intrader> tripelb, try `cat file | sort` see what you get
[01:00] <brophat> ok vgr thanks well my puter is up now i just gotta boot safe mode then startx then put in keyring password bwahahahha
[01:00] <obengdako> Paulo39,  got a solution for you
[01:01] <FrozenFire[work]> Paulo39, #vbox
[01:01] <ringo> russjr08: sweet thanks. ill let you know if i need anymore help
[01:01] <vgr> brophat hope you don't have to reboot too often :)
[01:01] <Paulo39> Frozenball, i already asked there, but nobody answers me
[01:02] <obengdako> Paulo39,  i recently increased the size of my virtual windows xp service pack 3 from 5 GB to 20GB
[01:02] <obengdako> but i don't know if my method is the best yet
[01:02] <Pupazzetto> hi :) it's my third minimal install of maverick and i can't login as root, because the password it's incorrect... sorry my noobness :| am i doing something wrong?
[01:02] <russjr08> ringo: No problem! I hope you enjoy it :)
[01:02] <drag> ok somebody know to install a logitech webcam fusion in backtrack 4 ???
[01:02] <studentz> Help me I'm stuck in the login screen I cannot get access neither gnome nor xterm Please somebody help me
[01:02] <FrozenFire[work]> Paulo39, Patience. In any case, it's not a Ubuntu support question.
[01:03] <brophat> vgr yeah dunno even when i booted that way web browser was having prob loading pages
[01:03] <intrader> studentz, are at the login dialog?
[01:03] <tripelb> I want to sort alphabetically. it's a gedit file. can I do this? --- Ubuntu 10.04 -- is this an easy thing to do?
[01:03] <obengdako> simple i dd the disk then made a new virtual disk and imaged to that when it was complete i expanded the size of the partition Paulo39
[01:03] <studentz> intrader yep
[01:03] <sacarlson> Pupazzetto: there is no root password.  just login to the user created at install and sudo what you need
[01:03] <intrader> studentz, did you forget your password?
[01:03] <tripelb> intrader, oh I didnt see
[01:03] <Markive> _jesse_ hi again, i've installed kubuntu desktop, when my machine passes grub I can see it says kubuntu but when it boots i'm in gnome, I didn't get an option when I logged in.. any ideas?
[01:04] <FrozenFire[work]> Pupazzetto, It is recommended that you never login as root. Most things should be done using sudo.
[01:04] <rww> tripelb: Or within gedit: Edit > Preferences > Plugins -> Enable "Sort". Edit > Sort.
[01:04] <Pupazzetto> i agree, the fact is that i'm not in the sudoers list :|
[01:04] <studentz> intrader No my password is OK. When I change to a wrong password I tell me wrong password
[01:04] <Adiman423> sorry folks, I would love to stay around, but I have to go to bet
[01:04] <Adiman423> sorry folks, I would love to stay around, but I have to go to bed
[01:05] <_jesse_> Markive: it'll be at the login screen, where you type in your password
[01:05] <Markive> ooer it looks like i'm in gnome but there are new apps in the app button
[01:05] <brophat> is there a better way to start the gui from command line other than startx?
[01:05] <FrozenFire[work]> Pupazzetto, You can login as root via the recovery console available in the GRUB boot list.
[01:05] <Markive> if I can see K3B am I in kde?
[01:05] <sacarlson> Pupazzetto: there must be a user you know that is?  if not you will have to boot with a live boot cd and modify the sudoer list
[01:05] <FrozenFire[work]> Be careful, though.
[01:05] <_jesse_> Markive: I honestly don't run KDE so I couldn't tell you for sure
[01:05] <Pupazzetto> uhm ok
[01:05] <FrozenFire[work]> sacarlson, a Live CD is not needed.
[01:05] <intrader> studentz, sorry, try again to ask the question. I don't know how to help you further. Do you select gnome?
[01:06] <wumao101> can anyone suggest best practice for configuring sudoer list?
[01:06] <Markive> _jesse_ thanks for all you help
[01:06] <jolaren> I want to start a program upon startup but I don't know how to.. how do I do this+?
[01:06] <sacarlson> FrozenFire[work]: your right Pupazzetto, you don't have to boot with live cd just single user boot
[01:06] <Pupazzetto> no, it's a minimal install from a usb key :)
[01:06] <quant> jolaren, system - preferences - startup applications
[01:07] <studentz> intrader I do not forget my password.  I try to login to gnome and xterm with the same result
[01:07] <Pupazzetto> i'm trying to get a xbmc+ubuntu :)
[01:07] <alket> hi has anyone managed to use PC internet connection to Mobile phone  ?
[01:07] <FrozenFire[work]> Pupazzetto, All Linux systems should have a recovery console available.
[01:07] <FrozenFire[work]> Minimal or not.
[01:07] <Uberpwn> I'm having troubles with an HP printer, can anyone assist me
[01:07] <quant> alket, pc internet connection to mobile phone?
[01:07] <sacarlson> Pupazzetto: there still must be a way to boot single user with usb key boot.
[01:07] <intrader> studentz, I'd use a bootable CD and look at your .profile file in your /home see what you got.
[01:08] <alket> yes quant , this guy said he did but i don't understand it well http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1589159
[01:08] <Paulo39> obengdako, i didn't understant well the procedure. now i have the windows 7 installed in a 20Gb virtual disk. what do i have to do now really?
[01:08] <studentz> let me do it. What I'm looking for en .profile?
[01:09] <FrozenFire[work]> Paulo39, It's not really possible, so far as I know, to grow a VDI.
[01:09] <FrozenFire[work]> Except to create a new, larger disk, and then copy the data over.
[01:09] <intrader> studentz, execute line by line, and see what is blowing up.
[01:09] <FrozenFire[work]> Then use something like ntfsresize.
[01:10] <intrader> studentz, trye asking again as I am perhaps misleading you to waste your time.
[01:11] <intrader> studentz, I would ask help to look at logs
[01:11] <Pupazzetto> i should be able to sudo gainroot right?
[01:11] <Pupazzetto> knowing the password of the root account?
[01:12] <FrozenFire[work]> Pupazzetto, Just run su
[01:12] <newhcj> xaunga: i did read the instruction but i got stuck at the last part.... so now i dont know wut to do....
[01:12] <FrozenFire[work]> But, by default, the root password is randomized.
[01:12] <Pupazzetto> auth failure
[01:12] <Pupazzetto> i need to su :|
[01:12] <tripelb> intrader, thanks. that worked wll thanks to my "decades old" experience in a shell. Would be nice in the guil  (I sorted a file of camera offerings at best buy.  thus by brand by model which is by price !
[01:12] <quant> Pupazzetto, why?
[01:12] <Pupazzetto> i didn't have this problem with karmic release tho...
[01:13] <Pupazzetto> because it's a minimal install and i want to bring an xbmc on it :|
[01:13] <intrader> tripelb, good
[01:13] <Pupazzetto> i want to make a mediacenter out of it :|
[01:13] <tripelb> rww - Isee that now and put it in my notes
[01:13] <StrangeCharm> is it possible to integrate the passwords and encryption keys application with firefox's password system?
[01:14] <sacarlson> Pupazzetto: do you know how to boot as single user?
[01:14] <Uberpwn> nobody can help me with a printer?
[01:14] <Krunal> okay so i have the new Dell xps 15. (im on my 2nd fresh install of ubuntu 10.10). I installed the additional Nvidia drivers through ubuntu > and after a reboot I got a black screen with text $
[01:14] <FrozenFire[work]> StrangeCharm, That's something I've struggled with for some time.
[01:14] <Pupazzetto> unfortunately not, my entire IT knowledge is based on win :D
[01:14] <intrader> tripelb, make your own shell file to do exactly what you need!
[01:14] <Pupazzetto> oh and dos
[01:15] <FrozenFire[work]> StrangeCharm, I thought about creating a keyring and then making a translation layer between the keyring and Firefox's password database.
[01:15] <FrozenFire[work]> StrangeCharm, But, as it is, there's no apparent way.
[01:15] <newhcj> im starting to get the hang of this linux stuff... after months of trying... thanks to this chat...
[01:16] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire[work], have you opened a bug on P&EK ?
[01:16] <[biabia]> whats the command to show what distro i am using?
[01:16] <quant> [biabia], uname -a
[01:17] <intrader> FrozenFire[work], I have gotten rid of the fstab entry as it complicated matters setting all files to rwxrwxrwx. Now the context menu Properties->Permissions->Execute  toggles the checkbox, but then resets it back.
[01:17] <[biabia]> hm it doesnt show like 10.04.1 lts
[01:18] <sacarlson> Pupazzetto: well this might get you started http://www.debuntu.org/recover-root-password-single-user-mode-and-grub
[01:18] <Pupazzetto> i'll look at it right now
[01:19] <Pupazzetto> but it's always like this with a fresh install?
[01:19] <Uberpwn> SOMEONE PLEASE IM ME OR SREPOND TO MY MESSAGES
[01:19] <songer> Uberpwn: no escribas todo en mayusculas, va contra las normas. La proxima vez seras expulsado.
[01:21] <ogitux> !ping
[01:21] <ogitux> ~ping
[01:22] <Krunal> okay so i have the new Dell xps 15. (im on my 2nd fresh install of ubuntu 10.10). I installed the additional Nvidia drivers through ubuntu > and after a reboot I got a black screen with text $. Should I trust these drivers?
[01:22] <quant> peng
[01:22] <Shorty> ok so anyone wanna give me some more suggestions on how to get ubuntu 10.10 working correctly on my laptop
[01:22] <tonsofpcs> Krunal: I guess not...
[01:22]  * Shorty is a total ubuntu n00b
[01:22] <zetheroo> ok ... so according to synaptic I have the latest Java installed ... but FF is obviously not seeing it that way
[01:22] <quant> Shorty, what's the problem?
[01:22] <ringo> russjr08: what hd storage type should i choose on vituralbox? Fixed-sized storage or dynamically expanding storage?
[01:22] <Shorty> everything installs fine but after grub my backlight wont come on
[01:23] <Shorty> so i cannot seen anything
[01:23] <Shorty> tried re installing 5 times
[01:23] <[biabia]> quant: how do i see which ubuntu release i am using
[01:23] <Shorty> including downloading during intallation all the updates
[01:23] <quant> Shorty, maybe incompatible laptop, not sure
[01:23] <intrader> Anyone, I have a problem with FAT usb sticks as described in  http://paste.ubuntu.com/536885/. Hopefully it is clear. It used to work in 9.04, 9.10, early 10.04 and early 10.10. Works fine in fedora, suse, and mandrake as well as on the mac
[01:23] <quant> [biabia], except for uname -a, not sure
[01:23] <guampa> ringo: depends on what you want, dinamically expanding storage reports a virtual size to the guest thats all
[01:23] <gnr>  hi, how can I, define a cell using another cell, while having text in the main cell? eg... This is a report from =B1 for =C1 user.
[01:24] <zetheroo> java.com says: Your Java version is Version 6 Update 20.  ... but in synaptic I have updated to 22
[01:24] <atxq> so I have a gamepad and want to use it as a mouse
[01:24] <quant> Shorty, try booting in that recovery mode perhaps
[01:24] <atxq> anyone know how to do this?
[01:24] <gnr>  hi, how can I use OOCalc, define a cell using another cell, while having text in the main cell? eg... This is a report from =B1 for =C1 user.
[01:24] <quant> gnr, this is ubuntu support channel
[01:25] <gnr> quant:i might be lucky
[01:25] <ringo> guampa: im totally new to this so idk what that means lol. just wanting to test out ubuntu 10.10 using virtual box so you let me know what will be best, fixed or dynamic
[01:25] <quant> ringo, any of those
[01:25] <Shorty> i tried recovery
[01:25] <Shorty> i tried root
[01:25] <Shorty> i tried all i could think
[01:25] <Shorty> lol
[01:26] <guampa> ringo: for small disks use fixed, dynamic for any size
[01:26] <kimeuton> ola a todos
[01:26] <quant> Shorty, sorry then :)
[01:26] <zetheroo> anyone with 10.10 using FF not able to access this page? : http://supportapj.dell.com/support/downloads/index.aspx?c=au&l=en&s=dhs
[01:26] <quant> zetheroo, works for me
[01:26] <ringo> guampa: ok i have 98 gb left on my disk so i guess ill just do the dynamic
[01:26] <guampa> ringo: fixed means if you want a 1Tb disk the file will be 1Tb on your real machine, dynamic disks grow as you fill them
[01:27] <Roasted_> is it possible to vnc into a livecd? my buddy is 600 miles away troubleshooting something, and he booted to an ubuntulivecd and forwarded the port on his router for vnc but I cant remote in. I was just curious if the livecd has a limitation or not.
[01:27] <zetheroo> quant: and can you see what this says: http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp?detect=jre&try=1
[01:27] <tonsofpcs> Roasted_: it's probably blocked in the firewall on the livecd by default
[01:27] <tonsofpcs> he probably needs to open 5900 to all there
[01:27] <quant> zetheroo, indeed I can
[01:27] <Roasted_> I didnt know ubuntu had a firewall by default...
[01:28] <zetheroo> quant: thanks
[01:28] <quant> zetheroo, np
[01:29] <GiraffeFace> Hey, i'm just trying to boot into 10.10. I installed some updates last night and rebooted and when I came back ubuntu didn't recognize my usb keyboard/mouse. The bios does however. Furthermore, I tried putting the boot disc back in but I get to the screen where it asks if I want to try ubuntu or just install it and the mouse/keyboard also won't register. Any recomendations?
[01:29] <Roasted_> I didnt know ubuntu had a firewall by default... - tonsofpcs
[01:30] <zetheroo> quant: for my it says that I am using version 6 update 20
[01:31] <tripelb> intervade, its on my list to learn to do that. I'm looking for a sale camera right now.
[01:31] <studentz> intrader:  I'm in a rescue mode from live cd. I cd to /home but I cannot see any file or directory. When I installed I remember to chose encrypt my home directory.  How I can get access to .profile ?
[01:32] <fleshwormx> Thats so ho~7
[01:32] <fleshwormx> ~
[01:32] <quant> zetheroo, yes, same
[01:33] <zetheroo> quant: that's odd ... 'cause you probably also have update 22 installed in synaptic ...
[01:33] <quant> zetheroo, let me check again
[01:33] <quant> zetheroo, it's 22, you're right
[01:34] <zetheroo> quant: hmm
[01:34] <Roasted> Why can't I VNC into my buddy's PC who currently has a PC booted up to an Ubuntu LiveCD? He has all of the forwarding settings set right, etc.
[01:35] <MaximLevitsky> Roasted: your buddy uses what ubuntu version?
[01:35] <Roasted> 10.10
[01:35] <zetheroo> quant: but still oddly you can still access that page ... whereas I cannot
[01:35] <sacarlson> Roasted:  does he have the vnc set to active also?
[01:35] <Roasted> He's troubleshooting a pc from 600 miles away from me, and he's in a livecd on it truobleshooting something but I cant remote in
[01:35] <Roasted> what do you mean "set to active"
[01:35] <Roasted> he has it enabled, and the port forwarded
[01:35] <ringo> ahhhh trying to run ubuntu on virtual box and its not working. these are the directions im using:  http://www.wikihow.com/Install-Ubuntu-on-VirtualBox
[01:35] <sacarlson> Roasted: can you login with ssh?
[01:35] <Roasted> I see zero reason it's not working, when my laptop/desktop (both ubuntu) work using the saem instructions
[01:36] <Roasted> sacarlson, I have no idea?
[01:36] <Roasted> how do I try
[01:36] <MaximLevitsky> Roasted: than say thanks to some developers: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vinagre/+bug/634571
[01:36] <ringo> it says no bootable meduim found! system halted
[01:36] <sacarlson> Roasted: try ssh into his system,  from there you can activate vnc if you really need it from the command prompt
[01:37] <GiraffeFace> Hey does anyone have an answer to this question?:
[01:37] <GiraffeFace> Hey, i'm just trying to boot into 10.10. I installed some updates last night and rebooted and when I came back ubuntu didn't recognize my usb keyboard/mouse. The bios does however. Furthermore, I tried putting the boot disc back in but I get to the screen where it asks if I want to try ubuntu or just install it and the mouse/keyboard also won't register. Any recomendations?
[01:37] <sacarlson> Roasted: oh ssh server is not installed at default for a live boot
[01:37] <Roasted> sacarlson, hes trying teamviewer at the moment.
[01:37] <Roasted> sacarlson, btw I'm not sure how this bug link matters - Im on 10.10 and it works perfectly.
[01:38] <Roasted> sacarlson, he's behind a smooth wall and all kinds of firewall stuff so I'm not sure if it's something on his end or not.
[01:38] <newhcj> this is a dumb question, but what do you do with WINE?
[01:38] <MaximLevitsky> newhcj: run windows applications
[01:38] <zetheroo> quant: btw ... did you open that dell link in FF?
[01:39] <Flannel> newhcj: WINE is used to run Windows programs in Ubuntu (or any Linux)
[01:39] <krunal_> how do i check what the current resolution im running ?
[01:39] <quant> zetheroo, yes
[01:39] <zetheroo> quant: ok ... because that link works fine for me in Chromium ... but not at all in FF
[01:39] <newhcj> Flannel: MaximLevitsky: like a program thats only for windows or a game or something?
[01:40] <MaximLevitsky> newhcj: yes, but bear in mind that wine usually don't work
[01:40] <zetheroo> quant: and this is testing on two machines both running fully updated 10.10
[01:40] <newhcj> oh
[01:40] <newhcj> :(
[01:40] <quant> newhcj, actually it usually works
[01:40] <Flannel> newhcj: Yeah, lots of programs written for Windows can be successfully run in Ubuntu via Wine
[01:40] <MrWhite1127> Ok perhaps here someone can help me.
[01:41] <tonsofpcs> Flannel: lots != all
[01:41] <MaximLevitsky> Folks, I tried running many windows programs in wine
[01:41] <newhcj> thanks guys... how would i use it
[01:41] <quant> newhcj, e.g. I play WoW with no problem with Wine
[01:41] <MrWhite1127> I went to the Fedora channel only to get bumrushed and not helped.
[01:41] <xangua> !wine | newhcj
[01:41] <Flannel> tonsofpcs: Right, I never claimed all.
[01:41] <MaximLevitsky> Some work, yeas, but its is very disappointing to see many not work
[01:41] <Ish_> hey guys if i install 10.04 on my 8.04 do i have to format my disk?
[01:41] <xangua> MrWhite1127: is your question about ubuntu¿
[01:42] <sacarlson> Roasted: I never seen this teamviewer  I just us the default preinstalled vnc,  why must you use that one?
[01:42] <Roasted> sacarlson, teamviewer is working
[01:42] <xangua> Ish_: you can upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04
[01:42] <sacarlson> Roasted: ok so what isn't working?
[01:42] <Roasted> sacarlson, teamviewer is nothing short of awesome. no need to forward ports, works across mac linux windows. its great.
[01:42] <Roasted> sacarlson, standard VNC built into Ubuntu wasnt working
[01:42] <Roasted> sacarlson, teamviewer works fine. he installed it on the livecd.
[01:42] <Roasted> sacarlson, Im not sure if its a livecd limitation or not, or if its a setup thing on his end with using a firewall, smoothwall, etc
[01:42] <tonsofpcs> Flannel: just making it clear
[01:43] <tonsofpcs> some people hear that and go "oh, i can use this app! yay!"
[01:43] <sacarlson> Roasted: I've used vnc across platforms also including windows even with a browser interface
[01:43] <tonsofpcs> and then try and fail hard
[01:43] <Roasted> sacarlson, that's great - I have too - but HERE on a livecd, VNC has failed. Teamviewer works great as we speak.
[01:43] <Roasted> sacarlson, not sure if its cause of the livecd or what.
[01:43] <sacarlson> Roasted: I asume your problem is you are atempting to control one remote software with another that is a different protocal
[01:43] <Roasted> sacarlson, even still
[01:44] <Roasted> vnc does not work when I expected it to
[01:44] <Roasted> teamviewer does
[01:44] <sacarlson> Roasted: well if teamviewer works than I would use that as your solution.  don't need more than one solution
[01:44] <Ish_> xangua, will the upgrade require me to format?
[01:44] <xangua> Ish_: no
[01:45] <xangua> !upgrade | Ish_
[01:45] <K350> Have they removed the fullscreen option in konsole in 10.10?
[01:45] <MrWhite1127> Ok. I have windows 7 ultimate on an Asus EEE PC 1005ha, the hard drive is bumped up to 320gigs and i have 2 gigs of ram, Intel Atom n270 at 1.6 ghz. My questions are, Would Kubuntu or Ubuntu be more responsive than Windows 7 Ultimate? and What Does ubuntu have to offer for Media playing and DVD authoring and encoding. I have used several linux distros before and im not really a linux newbie.
[01:45] <fleshwormx> jeje
[01:46] <MrWhite1127> I want something a little more advanced than Rythmbox or Totem
[01:46] <MrWhite1127> or YMMV
[01:46] <quant> MrWhite1127, advanced in what way?
[01:46] <anon33_> so, when i connect my android phone and put in USB mount enable, my /media/ folder doesn't autopopulate
[01:47] <MrWhite1127> More Feature rich without being cluttered.
[01:47] <anon33_> what command (from the terminal) would i have to issue to get it to recognize that my phone is connected?
[01:47] <quant> MrWhite1127, try banshee and go back to windows if you don't like any of those
[01:47] <rww> MrWhite1127: Banshee or Audacious, perhaps?
[01:47] <quant> MrWhite1127, also amarok
[01:48] <MrWhite1127> ive always gotten freeze ups with amarok.
[01:48] <K350> MrWhite1127: To be honest. Ubuntu is great. But there'll be some learning process and you'll have to deal quite a lot with it for some time. Then you'll propably miss your windows. But in the long run it's really worth it. Give youserlf at least  more then 6 months before you finaly make up your mind.
[01:48] <sacarlson> MrWhite1127: for one thing dvd authoring or video editing you might want more power than a 1.6ghz n270 but ubuntu has all that.  and it would be faster in normal operation than windows 7.  takes less hourse power to run normal stuf
[01:49] <MrWhite1127> well I ran Ubuntu NBR for about 8 months.
[01:50] <MrWhite1127> Well I havnt really had a problem with authoring before. Im not out for conversion speeds rather than quality.
[01:50] <John_Abbott> Umm, I need help
[01:51] <John_Abbott> Could anyone help?
[01:51] <MrWhite1127> Id rather my movie come out sharp with clear audio 2+ hours later than have a copy thats pixelated and fuzzy audio in 30 mins.
[01:51] <K350> John_Abbott: with what?
[01:51] <pitoow> John_Abbott what do you want?
[01:51] <MrWhite1127> And we need a question first man.
[01:51] <John_Abbott> I get an error message when starting ubuntu on my PC
[01:51] <K350> uhm

[01:56] <MrWhite1127> Also winavi works decent if your out for speed. 850+mb .avi Converted to DVD structure with custom Menus and Okay picture and audio in about 30 mins.
[01:56] <john38> CrimsonIdol, you there
[01:57] <MrWhite1127> John38: yes. Buy a USB wifi stick.
[01:57] <anon33_> so, when i connect my android phone and put in USB mount enable, my /media/ folder doesn't autopopulate
[01:57] <anon33_> what command (from the terminal) would i have to issue to get it to recognize that my phone is connected?
[01:57] <quant> anon33_, autopopulate?
[01:57] <john38> MrWhite1127, no i mean wired connection with modem instead of ethernet from modem to pc i use usb cable
[01:57] <MrWhite1127> anon33_ : is debug mode/Testing Mode ticked in the phone?\
[01:58] <sacarlson> MrWhite1127: well that sothink apears to be just a flash video capture tool and ubuntu has that

[02:00] <arcsky> how can i change this wierd thing with minimize/maximize on windows?
[02:00] <MrWhite1127> raidghost: eh?
[02:00] <anon33_> MrWhite1127: yes
[02:00] <quant> arcsky, what wierd thing?
[02:00] <rww> arcsky: which weird thing?
[02:00] <MrWhite1127> try turning that off and disconnect and reconnect
[02:01] <arcsky> close,minimize,maximize are on the left side
[02:01] <arcsky> which are very wierd

[02:02] <sacarlson> MrWhite1127: that looks cool,  closed thing we have to that is k3b  but I don't think it has as many codec suports as that sothink does
[02:02] <Zero_Burn> -r #ubuntu
[02:02] <Zero_Burn> What is the sudo
[02:02] <IdleOne> !sudo | Zero_Burn
[02:03] <MrWhite1127> anon33_ : Its used for logging purposes if you develop your own .apks or if you installed an app and its not functioning properly you can fire up the android SDK and connect the two and figure out whats not tickin right.
[02:04] <Zero_Burn> IdleOne> !<ubottu>thank much!!!
[02:04] <anon33_> MrWhite1127: simple question - if my device is rooted, shouldn't i have a drive that appears to mimic "system"? everything that pops up is either the sdcard, data, or internal storage

[02:05] <arcsky> gconftool-2 --set "/apps/metacity/general/button_layout" --type string "menu:minimize,maximize,close"
[02:05] <arcsky> doesnt work
[02:06] <Matthew__> guys, i am trying to build am ampache directory and am running :  <- thats after : find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \; .. i guess its wrong ey ?
[02:06] <Matthew__> drwx------ 63 se42hw se42hw 16384 2010-11-27 01:52 House
[02:07] <guampa> lol
[02:08] <MrWhite1127> anon33_: No you shouldnt. IF you see those folders you mentioned then everything is correct. Rooting just consists of giving you /su privlages. Which allows you to modify the files. But They must be done Via the Bootloader and must be cooked into a custom rom.
[02:11] <anon33_> MrWhite1127: thanks
[02:13] <Ish_> hey guys is NX better or exceed?
[02:13] <New1> hi how do i update from the terminal ? (update manager)
[02:13] <sacarlson> Ish_: I've upgraded from 8.04 to 10.04 before but not remotely and had some problems with some of my php apps that I had custom installed.  something to do with no longer supported functions.
[02:14] <arcsky> is there a new security thing for join a wlan network ?
[02:14] <fleshwormx> jua jasss

[02:15] <Zero_Burn> The CD Installing linux Server 10.04 Is not bootting
[02:15] <creyato> Question: How do I change my netbook screen brightness in Ubuntu 10.10?
[02:15] <quant> creyato, try adding the applet in the gnome panel
[02:15] <sacarlson> Ish_: I kept the original boot so I could move back until I fixed the new stuf
[02:15] <Zero_Burn> The CD Installing linux Server 10.04 Is not bootting what is doing
[02:15] <quant> creyato, right click on the panel then add then choose the one for brightness etc.
[02:15] <fleshwormx> muahaha
[02:16] <Ish_> sacarlson, i have that option?
[02:16] <New1> and how do i choose to upgrate less than 5 MB ?
[02:16] <creyato> quant: I did. It doesn't register what I have or something. It just stays in one spot and won't let me move the slider.  :-/
[02:16] <quant> creyato, what graphics card do you have?
[02:16] <creyato> Intel N10 I believe.
[02:16] <nit-wit> New1, please explain more clearly
[02:16] <sacarlson> Ish_: only if you backed up your original or installed onto an unused or new partition
[02:17] <ubuntu> hi, I want to use nfs what is mount --bind good for?
[02:17] <creyato> quant: Intel N10 I believe... The brightness applet doesn't even acknolwedge that I can adjust the brightness
[02:17] <sacarlson> Ish_: it took me weeks to fix most of my apps
[02:17] <creyato> quant: It just shows a N/A sign in the icon and the slider is all the way down.
[02:17] <quant> creyato, I can do it in ATI Catalyst, perhaps try to do it if you have something similar for your graphics card
[02:18] <nit-wit> creyato, try the fn key down and the left/right arrows on keyboard
[02:18] <sacarlson> Ish_:  you might try virtualbox to test all your apps you now use before you install on a real partition
[02:18] <quant> creyato, you can also try xgamma -gamma 0.5 to 1.5 etc., but I don't find that satisfying
[02:19] <creyato> nit-wit: The FN functions depend on the keyboard layout. My layout is setup so FN+Left/Right is for volume. Which works perfectly.
[02:19] <New1> instead of using Update Manager wich want to download 161.1 of MB i want to use Terminal to update all the files less than 5 MB becouse right now it will take me an hour to do so
[02:19] <nit-wit> creyato, alright that works good luck ;)
[02:19] <dzup2> is gaybuntu been release abytime soon?
[02:19] <dzup2> anytime*
[02:19] <New1> so what is the command for that?
[02:20] <IdleOne> dzup2: there is no such distro and if there is it will NOT be supported here.
[02:20] <nit-wit> New1, use the update manger and tick off what you don't want but be carefull you may be dealing with dependencies
[02:21] <nit-wit> New1, you could do a sudo apt-get install of the packages from a terminal
[02:22] <New1> nit-wit sure but the list is long. i did not use this pc losg time
[02:22] <quant> New1, what do you want to achieve exactly?
[02:22] <New1> not install new pachages but to update them
[02:22] <studentz> Hi there I'm stuck  in the login screen. i cannot get access neither gnome or xterm. I do not forget my password. Please help me
[02:22] <IdleOne> New1: the longer you wait to do the update the longer the download will take as new updates are added
[02:23] <quant> New1, you cannot just update, you must install new versions
[02:23] <nit-wit> New1,  yes but you can see the list with a terminal update copy that list to a gedit the arrange it into a apt-get install
[02:23] <New1> IdleOne sure i agree too
[02:24] <thunkee> studentz: xterm? do you mean text login with ctrl alt f1 thing?
[02:24] <New1> nit-wit ok let me see

[02:29] <Jouva> After reading up a little bit, I was able to make the mic on my netbook work with skype. It required specifying PULSE_SERVER=<IP_ADDRESS> in a command. However, this netbook is going to my mom and she's not going to understand that. Is there some way of forcing this to work otherwise?
[02:30] <studentz> thunkee  I'm in a terminal finally.
[02:30] <rww> fleshwormx: I don't understand what you're saying. If there's another language you're more comfortable with than English, say which and I can point you to its channel.
[02:30] <ldlework> If anyone is handy with mencoder... I'm trying to record video with audio but can't get the audio part. I'm not sure what audio device I should be pointing mencoder at. The dock based sound control sees my webcam's mono audio input and skype uses it correctly too. Any ideas?
[02:30] <Shorty> ok anyone wanna gimmie some help
[02:30] <thunkee> studentz: logged in?

[02:34] <nit-wit> New1,  no problem it is different the MS with dependencies and just lots of updates sometimes
[02:34] <thunkee> studentz: ok have to stop gdm ... do you use gnome?
[02:34] <IdleOne> New1: which ever you prefer but those updates are important.
[02:34] <studentz> thunkee Yes i use gnome

[02:40] <nit-wit> New1,  the tab is a nice thing, never tried it that way though, mainly here for names and manual logins to a grub failure
[02:40] <sacarlson> Guest68871: did you look at this? http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-with-remastersys.html
[02:41] <nit-wit> see you all on the other side

[02:44] <phusion__> hey guys. I have a server with two NIC's in it. one is onboard (2x1Gbps, 2x10GigE fiber onboard, 4x1Gbps add-in card). I'm finding with the add-in card, interfaces are being named differently upon each boot. For instance, 3 out of the 4 interfaces on the add-in card seem to stay as eth4, eth5, eth6, however the 4th interface tends to switch between eth0_rename and eth1_rename upon boot. Any idea how to stop this?
[02:44] <fleshwormx> being to close to the switch
[02:44] <fleshwormx> brb
[02:44] <New1> IdleOne tnx. OMG i did it a lot of time with "Update Manager" him self
[02:44] <Flannel> New1: If you stop it during the [download packages] portion, it won't generally do anything bad. But you don't want to stop it during the [unpacking and installing packages] portion (it downloads everything first, then does all the unpackaging)
[02:45] <New1> Flannet ooohhh good to know tnx :)
[02:46] <New1> and yes now it's only on the Donwload mode
[02:46] <Guest68871> sacarlson, Thank you, I have been searching google but not found this. This looks good and I also found APTonCD.

[03:08] <Docfxit> I'm getting a message saying "usershares are currently disabled
[03:09] <Docfxit> How can I enable them?
[03:11] <magicjoe> so im pretty much screwed?
[03:12] <magicjoe> yep....
[03:12] <rigved> hi everyone
[03:14] <rigved> my computer shutdown unexpectedly? how do i diagnose the error that caused it? using ubuntu 10.04
[03:16] <thunkee> rigved: look at /var/log/messages
[03:16] <New1> if i do sudo apt-get upgrade , is that do also update ?
[03:17] <dark3lf> New1: no
[03:17] <krunal> what do you do with a .run file?
[03:17] <New1> dark3lf tnx
[03:17] <rigved> thunkee: ok. i'll paste the last line here
[03:17] <dark3lf> New1: just do "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" in one line
[03:17] <deww> krunal: chmod +x and probably ./file.run
[03:18] <deww> krunal: what's the .run file suppsed to be?
[03:18] <krunal> deww, its a linux nvidia driver
[03:18] <rigved> thunkee: Nov 24 14:33:35 rigved-desktop rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="4.2.0" x-pid="853" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com"] rsyslogd was HUPed, type 'lightweight'.
[03:18] <deww> krunal: you didn't like the one ubuntu installs?
[03:18] <krunal> deww, i'm really not sure if i should install it....
[03:18] <brophat> to start the gui should i just do a startx?
[03:19] <rigved> thunkee: this is the last line. same in syslog. what does it mean?
[03:19] <New1> dark3lf tnx again :)
[03:19] <krunal> deww, in "additional drivers".... there is a restricted driver that I can install - when I did > i rebooted and all I could get is a black screen with console $....couldn't get into the gnome enviroment. apparently there are issues with  nvidia drivers and ubuntu... i have the new dell xps 15 with geforce gt 420m
[03:20] <thunkee> rigved: as you see there are a lot messages find the messages around reboot/boot
[03:20] <deww> might be with that specific card
[03:20] <rigved> thunkee: ok
[03:21] <studentz> Thunkee I repeat twice  the instructions and reboot for the second time without any success.
[03:21] <krunal> deww, if i were to install this driver from nvidias website...should i uninstall the existing driver first?
[03:22] <pksadiq> krunal: did you try sudo nvidia-xconfig?
[03:22] <krunal> pksadiq, command not found
[03:23] <pksadiq> krunal: did you already uninstalled the driver?
[03:23] <thunkee> studentz: after X & do you get a graphical screen? or a lot of errors?
[03:23] <krunal> pksadiq, no i have not done anything yet
[03:24] <pksadiq> krunal: and so you need to download from nvidia site, isn't that what you mean?, but I think it's better to install nvidia-current package
[03:24] <pksadiq> !nvidia | krunal
[03:24] <krunal> pksadiq, when i installed nvidia-current package...i got black screen after reboot
[03:25] <studentz> thunkee I got a black screen for a long type. The i ctrl alt f1 . There is a error but  they say something like it is no fatal
[03:25] <pksadiq> krunal: it blinked to or 3 times and brought you to shell isn't it?
[03:25] <krunal> pksadiq, yes
[03:26] <Dennis_> I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and I seem to have lost my flash. I've tried to reinstall flash using a series of commands to Delete, Force, Install. None of these have worked, and I can't get Flash to work in Firefox. Any suggestions?
[03:26] <pksadiq> krunal: when you reach the shell login
[03:26] <krunal> pksadiq, i was stuck in shell - i reinstalled ubuntu because of it....
[03:26] <pksadiq> krunal: then type sudo nvidia-xconfig
[03:26] <thunkee> studentz: did typed gnome-session then?
[03:26] <pfifo> I cant hear any sound?
[03:27] <pksadiq> krunal: then restart you system, that might be enough, if not, come back here using Live CD
[03:27] <brophat> who wants to help me try to get my gui going?
[03:27] <studentz> thunkee   warning ** : Cannot open display

[03:27] <krunal> that is what I have.... it is OPTIMUS nvidia card
[03:27] <fleshwormx> jeje
[03:27] <thunkee> studentz: right forgot export DISPLAY=:0 sry
[03:28] <krunal> pksadiq, that is what I have.... it is OPTIMUS nvidia card
[03:28] <studentz> thunkee Should I type it now or I should repeat all the commands?
[03:29] <thunkee> studentz: if you launched X & type export DISPLAY=:0
[03:29] <pfifo> I pirated a copy of ubuntu 8.10 from a torrent but im hoping I can still get support
[03:29] <bazhang> pfifo, that is not pirated nor is it supported any longer
[03:29] <bazhang> !eol > pfifo
[03:30] <krunal> pksadiq, should I use proprietary drivers ?
[03:30] <share> hi
[03:30] <pksadiq> krunal: that is I said, nvidia-current
[03:30] <pksadiq> !info nvidia-current
[03:30] <krunal> pksadiq, so the one i have currenty is fine ?
[03:31] <pksadiq> krunal: now does compiz works well?
[03:31] <studentz> thunkee  I'm  getting a lot of text. Waiting ...
[03:31] <rigved> thunkee: so that last message which i postd here was an old one. it seems that the new messages are at the bottom. but since the file is very large, it still hasn't opened up completely. i'll check the message around shutdown when it has loaded completely. thanx for your help.
[03:31] <share> How can I flush DNS cache?
[03:31] <krunal> pksadiq, yes it works fine so far....
[03:31] <Dennis_> I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and I seem to have lost my flash. I've tried to reinstall flash using a series of commands to Delete, Force, Install. None of these have worked, and I can't get Flash to work in Firefox. Help.
[03:32] <pksadiq> krunal: then don't get your PC damaged once more ;),
[03:32] <thunkee> studentz: try ctrl+alt+F8
[03:32] <krunal> pksadiq, okay... but i want to be able to use all features for the gfx card
[03:32] <pksadiq> !flash
[03:32] <zmjb1> n00b here, how do I get mousepad to functin with horizontal scrolling and 2 finger scrolling like in windows?
[03:32] <brophat> startx returns "error in locking authority file .../.Xauthority"
[03:32] <Skapare> Dennis_: have you tried a complete uninstall AND flush of firefox and re-install it back, then add flash?
[03:33] <brophat> anyone have an idea?
[03:33] <krunal> zmjb1, i have the same question
[03:33] <studentz> thunkee I did I get my Gnome desktop. What I should do now?
[03:33] <skx> what does "put computer to sleep" in Power Management Preferences mean? is it suspend? hibernate? something else?
[03:33] <Dennis_> No, I'll try anything at this point.
[03:33] <pksadiq> krunal: if compiz works well, that does mean your graphix card is detected and being used
[03:33] <Ali_nz> how do you check if GDM is running?
[03:33] <thunkee> studentz: first open a terminal or text editor and do smoe typing lokking ich keyboard is ok
[03:34] <thunkee> studentz: some looking if :)
[03:34] <krunal> pksadiq, okay cool. Thank you!
[03:34] <Dennis_> Skapare: No, I'll try anything at this point.
[03:34] <zmjb1> anyone on the mouse question?
[03:34] <studentz> thunkee it is working ok. :)
[03:35] <joevandyk> Is there a way to automatically update the time zone on ubuntu?
[03:36] <thunkee> studentz: ok my first impression was the xkbd is messed because you cant login ... now it looks loke gdm is messes anyhow
[03:36] <joevandyk> "dpkg-reconfigure tzdata" requires interaction
[03:36] <studentz> thunkee .  Should I try to log out an in ?
[03:36] <shmup> joe, i'm no power user but..
[03:36] <shmup> http://blog.mypapit.net/2007/06/ubuntu-how-to-syncronise-computer-time-with-ntp.html
[03:36] <Random832> how do you rearrange icons on the launcher on ubuntu netbook edition?
[03:36] <zmjb1> - joevandyk I see yu can add multiple time zones and easily change them
[03:36] <shmup> sudo ntpdate europe.pool.ntp.org north-america.pool.ntp.org
[03:37] <shmup> oh  you did say automatically
[03:37] <shmup> ~.~
[03:37] <rww> shmup: that's time, not timezone ;)
[03:37] <joevandyk> shmup: not update the time via ntp, change the timezone
[03:37] <shmup> heeeh
[03:37] <joevandyk> is it just a matter of updating /etc/timezone?
[03:37] <zmjb1> - joevandyk click on date and time, then click edit next to locations
[03:37] <joevandyk> zmjb1: not using GUI
[03:37] <joevandyk> i need to automate this
[03:37] <joevandyk> (in a chef script)
[03:37] <zmjb1> sorry
[03:38] <Hilikus> i have the keyboard brake feature activated in my 10.10 but there is no icon in the toolbar that indicates how much time is left until the break
[03:38] <joevandyk> hm, maybe I want to symlink /etc/localtime?
[03:38] <Hilikus> anyone knows how to fix it?
[03:39] <thunkee> studentz: hmm log out of gnome session then sudo killall X then /etc/init.d/gdm start
[03:39] <justanotherguy> i'm trying to do a fresh install of ubuntu, and wanted to edit the partitions manually via the live cd and gparted before installing it but gparted runs forever and never finishes scanning the drives for partitions. does anyone know how to correct this? i'm lost. thanks.
[03:41] <thunkee> studentz: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[03:41] <pksadiq> justanotherguy: try sudo gparted /dev/sda            to search only for sda partitons and configure
[03:41] <Ali_nz> anyone here got CUDA up and running?
[03:41] <ZoomaBaresAll> i'm trying to install on a netbook from a USB, and i get a graphics initialization fail. anyone have any suggestions?
[03:42] <justanotherguy> pksadiq: awesome.  i really only want to edit sdb, so i'll try gparted /dev/sdb. thanks. i'll try it.
[03:42] <Meiam> I need some help can some one help me
[03:43] <studentz> thunkee I did . But the problem is still there.  What I should do? Yo make smile for ten minutes :)
[03:44] <Meiam> I try to hook my phone up but it just keeps looping back and forth and wont mount.  I think it thinks it is mounted.
[03:44] <pksadiq> !ask | Meiam
[03:44] <otniel> does anyone knows a guide or reference for how is linux organized? I mean i don't know nothing about how and where it stores its files and how the desktop is put up together...thanks
[03:45] <thunkee> studentz: checking gdm configuration :) easiest maybe reinstall gdm
[03:45] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: Do you know what your display adapter's model is?
[03:45] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview otniel
[03:45] <ZoomaBaresAll> FrozenFire: i do not. how would find out?
[03:45] <studentz> thunkee sudo apt-get install gdm .  I'm guessing
[03:45] <I-are-> \join #java
[03:46] <thunkee> studentz: should be stopped and removed before
[03:46] <ZoomaBaresAll> the nb is a toshiba... does that help?
[03:46] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: What model is your system? That should be on the case.
[03:46] <Meiam> I try to hook my phone up but it just keeps looping back and forth and wont mount.  I think it thinks it is mounted.
[03:46] <otniel> thanks that would be a great start
[03:46] <otniel> will*
[03:46] <studentz> thunkee What is the command to remove it
[03:46] <pksadiq> Meiam: which phone?
[03:46] <StrangeCharm> does passwords and encryption keys support hkps?
[03:47] <Meiam> htc incredible
[03:47] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: I do not believe so
[03:47] <krunal> can one set a permanent zoom level on ephiphany ? i have a 1080p screen and shit it too small!
[03:47] <thunkee> studentz: time to ask :) i want to reset my gdm configuration to ubuntu defaults how to do that?
[03:47] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, sigh
[03:48] <pksadiq> Meiam: mounting the filesystem in ubuntu to browse?
[03:48] <bazhang> krunal, language please
[03:48] <ZoomaBaresAll> FrozenFire: it's a Toshiba NB 255
[03:48] <krunal> bazhang, i'm sorry
[03:48] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: https://bugs.launchpad.net/seahorse/+bug/571297 That seems to be a relevant bug.
[03:48] <Meiam> yes it wont even mount it.
[03:49] <studentz> thunk Yes I want to reset my gdm configuration to Ubuntu defaults How to do that?
[03:49] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: I assume you're trying to install Ubuntu Netbook Remix?
[03:49] <ZoomaBaresAll> FrozenFire: yes
[03:49] <Random832> why is it the key for the number of workspaces lives in /apps/metacity/general/num_workspaces when it seems like every wm uses it?
[03:50] <pksadiq> studentz: if X server is the problem just rename xorg.conf file and restart
[03:50] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, earlier, i asked about firefox and the same app. is there a bug for that too?
[03:51] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: Just FYI, the password manager for Ubuntu is called "Seahorse"
[03:51] <thunkee> pksadiq: X server is ok
[03:51] <FrozenFire> As for Firefox, it implements its password storage in an SQLite database, iirc.
[03:51] <Meiam> I try to hook my phone up but it just keeps looping back and forth and wont mount.  I think it thinks it is already mounted.
[03:51] <studentz> pksadiq I already did it . I remove it and restart . But the problem is still there.  Any other suggestion?
[03:51] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, not something that one can tell from the "inside"
[03:51] <thunkee> studentz: do not rename the conf file
[03:52] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: I haven't forgotten about you ;). Just reading up on your chipset.
[03:52] <pksadiq> studentz: I thing there is something like sudo X --configure
[03:52] <ZoomaBaresAll> FrozenFire: cheers, no worries no hurries
[03:52] <FrozenFire> It seems that it's a known issue that your chipset does not have good out-of-the-box support.
[03:53] <Meiam> How do I unmount a usb that I cant see.
[03:53] <ZoomaBaresAll> I knew it! this always happens. i buy machines with unsupported hardware
[03:53] <pksadiq> studentz: it's sudo Xorg -configure
[03:53] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: New machines always tend to have these sorts of issues.
[03:53] <justanotherguy>  pksadiq:gparted is chugging away. looks like i'll get ubuntu installed in sdb, but why can i never scan sda with gparted? any idea?
[03:53] <Gorroth> hi
[03:53] <pksadiq> Meiam: is your phone is detected by ubuntu?
[03:53] <ZoomaBaresAll> that makes sense
[03:53] <FrozenFire> Especially things like netbooks, because they use slightly non-standard hardware.
[03:53] <antipop> Hi, I hava a java app that I stop with ^C , and I'm trying to run it as daemon with update-rc.d ? how can I do it? I really dont' know what to put in the stop section of the script
[03:53] <thunkee> studentz: do not reconfigure xorg pls
[03:53] <Gorroth> any way to make 'apt-cache' search only a single repo?
[03:53] <Meiam> No
[03:53] <ZoomaBaresAll> gotcha
[03:54] <thunkee> pksadiq: the X server is ok
[03:54] <bazhang> Gorroth, why would you want to
[03:54] <Gorroth> because i do
[03:54] <ZoomaBaresAll> which is why my sister had no problem installing on her five year old laptop
[03:54] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: At what stage does the error happen?
[03:54] <Gnea> antipop: did you look at skeleton?
[03:55] <Wicked> !webcam
[03:55] <antipop> gnat_x no, what t is?
[03:55] <Gorroth> just wondering if it's possible or not.  i didn't see anything in the man pages about it really
[03:55] <brophat> how can i test my wifi connection. ping sometimes works and sometimes it doesn't
[03:55] <antipop> Gnea
[03:55] <ZoomaBaresAll> it happens when i restart, hit f12 to boot from the USB, and select the USB. it says "graphics initiliazation failure" or something, and goes to a command line that just says "boot:"
[03:55] <studentz> thunkee  I'm in tty1 thinking what I should do?
[03:55] <thunkee> studentz: still looking
[03:55] <Gnea> antipop: should be in /etc/init.d/
[03:56] <tkmmc> brophat you can  ask  sb. help you ,connect your  computer
[03:57] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: Funny enough, the solution seems to simply be to type "help" when it says boot:
[03:57] <FrozenFire> Then enter, of course.
[03:57] <antipop> Gnea looking at it, but the issue
[03:57] <antipop> is that currently I stop the app with contro-c
[03:57] <Guest47299> I was wandering I am currently on kde 3.5, is it worth it at all to go to 4.0 and up or will it slow down a lot of stuff like vista?
[03:57] <Meiam> No my phone is not detected by ubuntu
[03:57] <antipop> but how do I stop it from the init script ?
[03:57] <ZoomaBaresAll> FrozenFire: thanks a lot! i'll give that a try, and hop back on here if that doesn't work
[03:57] <bazhang> Guest47299, what version of kubuntu
[03:57] <jc> How can i get the program ncdump??
[03:57] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: Good luck :)
[03:57] <Guest47299> bazhang, 10.10 Maverick
[03:58] <ZoomaBaresAll> thanks
[03:58] <bazhang> Guest47299, from a PPA?
[03:58] <Guest47299> bazhang, yeah
[03:58] <pksadiq> Meiam: after plugging your phone try lsusb, does it show?
[03:58] <palermo> Meiam: What model is your phone?
[03:58] <bazhang> Guest47299, doubtful
[03:58] <Guest47299> bazhang, i was just asking if I should upgrade or not
[03:59] <Guest47299> bazhang, I forget where I installed kubuntu from
[03:59] <bazhang> Guest47299, you purged it? in lieu of the ppa?
[03:59] <Gnea> antipop: antipop can you pastebin what you have so far?
[03:59] <DonJuan> I got a hard question if anyone can help out.
[03:59] <FrozenFire> !ask | DonJuan
[03:59] <c-Toxz> lol
[03:59] <AMTechHelp> Hi
[03:59] <Guest47299> bazhang, no I installed normal ubuntu, then I installed kde 3.5, and I am wandering if 4.0 would slow down my system
[03:59] <bazhang> c-Toxz, ?
[03:59] <newbyx86> hm may or not be the place to ask
[03:59] <AMTechHelp> Hi
[03:59] <newbyx86> does ubuntu come with a command line app that takes in a number and outputs that number in words?
[03:59] <thunkee> studentz: sudo stop gdm
[03:59] <bazhang> Guest47299, if you can run gnome, then kde4 wont be an issue
[03:59] <newbyx86> if so what is it called?
[03:59] <antipop> Gnea https://gist.github.com/717552
[04:00] <Meiam> pksadiq: No it does not show my phone.
[04:00] <Gnea> newbyx86: nafaik
[04:00] <DonJuan> Does anyone know of a way that I can install ubuntu by booting in GParted? I've got a computer that refuses to boot from my thumb drive although booting from USB is an option and no access to CD's.
[04:00] <FrozenFire> newbyx86: You mean converting something like "123" to "One hundred twenty three"?
[04:00] <newbyx86> yeap
[04:00] <Gnea> antipop: I'm guessing that this is your first shell script
[04:00] <AMTechHelp> Hi
[04:00] <pksadiq> Meiam: again , does dmesg shows anything related to phone?
[04:00] <AMTechHelp> Hi
[04:00] <Guest47299> bazhang, weird part is gnome slows down my games kde 3.5 doesnt, so I am worried 3d games on kde 4.0 will slow down like gnome
[04:00] <newbyx86> FrozenFire: yes, rather.
[04:00] <bazhang> AMTechHelp, hi
[04:00] <eazseecasur> anyone know  torcs , a 3d car racing game? i have an analog pad but it doesn t work what should i do?
[04:01] <studentz> thunkee stop gdm Unknown instance.
[04:01] <antipop> Gnea its my first init.d script
[04:01] <FrozenFire> newbyx86: I don't think there's anything for that. It's too esoteric an issue.
[04:01] <Gnea> antipop: ah, then you should know that variables ought to be defined outside of case loops
[04:01] <bazhang> Guest47299, not sure there, as I dont run 3D games
[04:01] <FrozenFire> newbyx86: You could write a script to accomplish that, though.
[04:01] <studentz> gdm stop give some messages
[04:01] <thunkee> studentz: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop ignore errors then apt-get purge gdm then apt-get install gdm
[04:01] <MTecknology> AMTechHelp: heh- your making me get hilighted in two channels :P
[04:02] <thunkee> studentz: sry apts with sudo in front
[04:02] <newbyx86> yeah likely could
[04:02] <Guest47299> Okay is it better then to install the nvidia driver from the website or use the Opensource one Ubuntu recommends
[04:02] <newbyx86> eh oh well
[04:02] <newbyx86> thanks for the help fellas
[04:02] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: There are a few solutions.
[04:02] <bazhang> Guest47299, for 3D likely the proprietary one
[04:02] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: Firstly, you might consider a "Network Installation"
[04:02] <Guest47299> bazhang, thats the one from the website right? sorry its late for me
[04:03] <bazhang> Guest47299, from hardware drivers though, not the website
[04:03] <antipop> Gnea https://gist.github.com/717552
[04:03] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: Or, you could write the installer to your thumbdrive and try booting from it. Be sure that you enable booting from USB in your BIOS.
[04:03] <DonJuan> FrozenFire: I looked into that, but most of the processes were for booting either from a dedicated server or from another Linux machine.
[04:03] <nimbiotics> Hello all. I need some serious help here: I haven't been able to share folders using samba, no matter how I try to do it. gadmin-samba shows the status as "Activated, Inactiver servers: nmbd, winbindd". PLEASE HELP ME. TIA!!!
[04:03] <FrozenFire> !caps | nimbiotics
[04:03] <bazhang> Guest47299, keep in mind you'll need to reconfigure it once there is a kernel update; the open source works great here, but I dont play 3D games so you mileage may vary
[04:04] <studentz> thunkee done. Now what is the next step?
[04:04] <thunkee> studentz: sudo start gdm
[04:04] <Guest47299> bazhang, so your saying for 3d I should install the one from the website I know about the kernel parts
[04:04] <DonJuan> FrozenFire: I've got a laptop with Windows 7 installed on it, but not really wanting to mess with it too much as it's not mine. I wrote the .iso to the thumb drive (one that I used to install openSUSE on my desktop) but it's just not working. I enabled "Boot from USB" in BIOS, but the option doesn't show up in the drive boot order.
[04:04] <Gnea> antipop: okay, a bit better, now you might want to put the options in a variable and then call them. also, why aren't you creating a pid file?
[04:04] <eazseecasur> anyone know  torcs , a 3d car racing game? i have an analog pad but it doesn t work what should i do?
[04:04] <bazhang> Guest47299, from hardware drivers (additional drivers) not the website
[04:04] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire, sry
[04:05] <Guest47299> bazhang, okay then that wont change much drivers wise I mean, cause thats what I am running right now
[04:05] <antipop> Gnea how can I create the f
[04:05] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire, sry. Im desperate, been trying for 2 days already
[04:05] <antipop> pid file?
[04:05] <Guest47299> and still slowdown in gnome for me
[04:05] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: During initialization (prior to the bootloader) the system generally provides a "boot menu"
[04:05] <antipop> Gnea how can I create the pid file?
[04:05] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: Typically, that's F12 or something similar.
[04:05] <bazhang> Guest47299, that wont change it, no
[04:05] <studentz> thunkee get the login screen  I log in but without success.
[04:05] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: And I'd be happy to help. You just have to elaborate further on the issue.
[04:05] <dfcnvt> nimbiotics: apt-get install swat
[04:06] <thunkee> studentz: same as at the beginning?
[04:06] <FrozenFire> I recall trying to help earlier, but you got stuck trying to enable the Location Bar in Nautilus.
[04:06] <dfcnvt> nimbiotics: then check via browser to change setting...
[04:06] <DonJuan> FrozenFire: I'm familiar with that, but for some reason this mobo doesn't give the boot menu option. All I've got is BIOS and an option to install from network.
[04:06] <studentz> thunkee  yes
[04:06] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: It's possible that the thumbdrive doesn't support booting.

[04:07] <Meiam> sorry
[04:07] <FrozenFire> Wubi will install Ubuntu in a file on the Windows partition.

[04:07] <consoleart> hi, i have ubuntu 10.10 instaled on my HP laptop...it was working...now if i try to boot it boots into command prompt...can someone help me to fix it
[04:07] <FrozenFire> It's generally safe to use.
[04:07] <antipop> Gnea looking...
[04:08] <zkriesse> hallo all
[04:08] <pksadiq> Meiam: I think , you have to change some settings in phone, probably in the connectivity of settings
[04:08] <DonJuan> FrozenFire: Doesn't that install ubuntu within the Windows OS? Not really the option I was wanting to go for.
[04:08] <justanotherguy> consoleart: try startx and see if it starts the gui
[04:08] <thunkee> studentz: gdm support page points out it can be memory/disk space problem, do you have enough disk space and memory? commands: free and df
[04:08] <consoleart> no it does not
[04:08] <consoleart> it throws up error and stops..
[04:08] <Alan502> I'm having trouble wiriting  a script... are there value types in scripts?
[04:08] <studentz> Thunkee I don't know if this important . I left my box in hibernation while i get my new hd (black friday). Then I installed my HD . I did not log in-out normally
[04:08] <c-Toxz> hola
[04:08] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: It's not at all risky. It's something I do often for those who wish to try Ubuntu without making a permanent change to their system.
[04:08] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/windows-installer
[04:08] <justanotherguy> consoleart: what ubuntu did you install? the desktop version?
[04:09] <consoleart> i have logged into using fail safe graphics mode...and its working...but if i boot up normallyy it goes to command prompt
[04:09] <consoleart> desktop version
[04:09] <ramseyd__> hi
[04:09] <consoleart> yes
[04:09] <studentz> thunkee yes I have 6gb of memory and 2 tb in my two hd
[04:09] <justanotherguy> consoleart: what is the error?
[04:09] <DonJuan> FrozenFire: I've got the link pulled up already, thanks though. I'm looking to get ubuntu permanently installed on here though.
[04:09] <Meiam> pksadiq: it works on my other computer.  It mounted up just fine the first time but then I did not mount it in the terminal and so something is screw up.
[04:09] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: If portability is absolutely necessary, you might go pick yourself up an external hard disk enclosure.
[04:09] <consoleart> some audio driver error
[04:09] <consoleart> i dont know the actual content
[04:10] <ramseyd__> Hi guys quick question. I am using ubuntu10.10 and trying to run the command "service vsftpd stop". But I get this warning: "stop: Unknown instance:" Can someone please tell me how to fix this?
[04:10] <justanotherguy> consoleart: i'm not real good at X issues. but i never saw audio issues stopping it from starting.
[04:10] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: Are you installing to the same drive as Windows is on?
[04:10] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire, Im a noob, dont know what to tell you. I ve got a smal home LAN, one win pc and ubuntu on the other one. Have shares on the win pc and i cant even see the pc on nautilus. OTH I shared a folder using gadmin-samba and another one from nautilus and, again; I cannot se the linux pc on windows. Purdeg samba, deleted smb.conf and reinstalled. same thing. gadmin-samab keeps giving me...
[04:10] <pksadiq> Meiam: but it dmesg says it's disconnected before setting up, isn't it, might be some erors with cable or you have to try obexftp
[04:10] <nimbiotics> ...same status
[04:10] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: Or do you have a separate disk in the system?
[04:10] <thunkee> studentz: should be enough :) you have a swap partition?
[04:11] <consoleart> if you can tell me how do i check the log for error i will do and will let you know...
[04:11] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: That really sounds like a networking problem. Check the IP address of each system and tell me them.
[04:11] <studentz> yes I do , and I think that it is big enough(16 gb)
[04:11] <nimbiotics> dfcnvt: how do i check settings via browser?
[04:11] <DonJuan> FrozenFire: I going to install ubuntu over the current Windows installation. This desktop has two HDD's, and I planned to use one for system and the other for the home partition.
[04:11] <justanotherguy> consoleart: if it was me i'd try reinstallling X but others here might have a better solution.  anyone..?
[04:11] <consoleart> how do reinstall just x...
[04:12] <consoleart> i can try it ...no problem for me
[04:12] <krunal> is there a solution to watch quicktime movies on ubuntu? on web browsers
[04:12] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire: First of all, I must tell you that im using DHCP on my router, could that be an issue?
[04:12] <justanotherguy> consoleart: sec, i'll look up what i use to install minimal X. you're using gnome right?
[04:12] <pfifo> consoleart, can you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.log
[04:12] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: What you could do is install the Ubuntu installer to a partition on the end of the home-partition disk, install the system, then remove the installer partition and resize your home partition to the size of the disk.
[04:13] <consoleart> yes...gnome
[04:13] <Meiam> pksadiq: what is obexftp?
[04:13] <qwertyjustin> hi, whats the best way to dual boot. - Via the WUBi install, or by cdrom, so the Operating systems are more side by side?
[04:13] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: DHCP isn't really an issue at all.
[04:13] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: What I'm looking for is the possibility that your systems are within two different subnets.
[04:13] <DonJuan> qwertyjustin: Wubi isn't a dual boot option in the normal sense. It just allows you to run Ubuntu from within Windows.
[04:13] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire: linux pc: <IP_ADDRESS> //  win pc: <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:14] <consoleart> pfifo: no such file in my machine....
[04:14] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: Alright, so the systems are indeed on the same subnet. That's good.
[04:14] <qwertyjustin> DonJuan: ahh yes. is it any slower or have any drawbacks?
[04:14] <pksadiq> Meiam: most nokia phones can be mounted as obex, this tool is used to mount obex file systems , I don't know whether HTC too uses that
[04:14] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: Are you running a firewall on either system?
[04:14] <pfifo> consoleart, there should be xorg logs somewhere in /var/log
[04:14] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: *Especially* the Windows system.
[04:15] <DonJuan> qwertyjustin: Not sure to be honest, never personally used it. I wouldn't imagine so depending on what the system your using has hardware wise.
[04:15] <consoleart> pfifo: i have some 6-7 org logs
[04:15] <pfifo> consoleart, how about /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[04:15] <consoleart> ok...wht is the pastebin url ?
[04:15] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc787076%28WS.10%29.aspx There's how to enable file sharing through Windows Firewall, which you may have enabled.
[04:15] <consoleart> go it
[04:15] <pfifo> pastebin.com
[04:16] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire: on both, but taka a look at he "Handle connections on" setting I'm geting from gadmin-samba:  <IP_ADDRESS>/8 <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[04:16] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: Well... yeah, that would be a problem.
[04:16] <FrozenFire> It's not configured to accept connections on the adapter you're apparently using.
[04:16] <consoleart> pfifo: http://pastebin.com/nQcDgfRa
[04:17] <eazseecasur> anyone know  torcs , a 3d car racing game? i have an analog pad but it doesn t work what should i do?
[04:17] <qwertyjustin> DonJuan: Limitations Compared with a regular installation, a Wubi installation faces some  limitations. Hibernation is not supported and the filesystem is more  vulnerable to hard reboots[1].  Also, if the Windows drive is unmounted uncleanly (most commonly  because of a Windows crash), Ubuntu will not be able to mount the  Windows drive and boot until Windows has successfully booted and shut  down. If the Windows system cannot be booted after the cras
[04:17] <FoolsRun> Basic structural question: what's a good place to store python scripts that run regularly?  I can't put them in /etc/cron.hourly for examble because they're Python, right?
[04:17] <Meiam> pksadiq: that did not work.  I think that my computer already thinks that it is mounted.
[04:18] <FrozenFire> FoolsRun: Depends on the context of the script. If it's a root script, you might put it in /root
[04:18] <FrozenFire> If it's a user script, put it in the user's home directory.
[04:18] <sk8rjess> what's the command to extract a tar.gz to a specific location
[04:18] <pksadiq> Meiam: does ls /dev/sd* shows sda, sdb etc?
[04:18] <FrozenFire> Depends fully upon whose crontab it's being executed within.
[04:18] <FoolsRun> FrozenFire: it's a root script.  Have you manually tweaked your xorg.conf file?
[04:19] <FoolsRun> FrozenFire: it's in root's crontab
[04:19] <FrozenFire> FoolsRun: /root is the root user's home directory.
[04:19] <StrangeCharm> i just opend the applications menu, and right-clicked on one of the entries. now my entire gnome bar isn't responding
[04:19] <justanotherguy> consoleart:  there are a few packages. it depends on what you have installed.  but if pfifo can help you then you might not need to reinstall packages.  i'd try pfifo's suggestions first, as i'm no ubuntu expert.     if that fails there's an "ok" guide at http://knol.google.com/k/ubuntu-minimal-desktop-installation-guide# but it really depends on what you have installed.
[04:19] <consoleart> pfifo: no...it was working one day and the next time its not
[04:20] <deww> sk8rjess: you want the -C switch
[04:20] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire: what should this value be? The "Allowed hosts and networks" value does look weird to me also:  127. 192.168.1 , as well as "Anounce this server to:": <IP_ADDRESS> and Retreive announcements from": <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:20] <justanotherguy> consoleart:  i'm from kybrd for a while...
[04:20] <pfifo> consoleart, did you install updates on that day, or perhaps switch to using nvidia/ati drivers?
[04:20] <Alan502> I need help with a script, please :)
[04:20] <Meiam> Pksadiq: ya it does sta, sda1, sda2, sda5, sdb and sdb1
[04:20] <c-Toxz> jeje
[04:21] <consoleart> i installed updates for nvidia...
[04:21] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: Honestly, I've never had to mess with gadmin-samba
[04:21] <FrozenFire> It's odd that you would need to.
[04:21] <FrozenFire> For the most part, it autoconfigures.
[04:21] <consoleart> justanotherguy: thanks...i will go with pfifo suggestions...
[04:21] <consoleart> pfifo: yes i installed updates
[04:22] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: Have you read the Samba guide (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba)?
[04:22] <sk8rjess> deww: what do you mean?
[04:22] <FishFace> nimbiotics: Just to clarify. You cannot see your Win7 shares from Ubuntu?
[04:22] <Lizzard88> Q: I am trying to use SSH on ubuntu to connect to my iPhone via SSH.  PCs are xp and ubuntu and neither one can see the other
[04:23] <studentz> thunkee Why gnome is in tty8 and not in tty7? Also I have tty5 login, but I swear I did not.
[04:23] <FrozenFire> Lizzard88: Not really within the scope of Ubuntu support.
[04:24] <FishFace> nimbiotics: All right. Thought it was a Win7 thing
[04:24] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire: 'ive read the guide. PCs are xp and ubuntu and neither one can see the other
[04:24] <McKooter> Lizzard: how are you trying now
[04:24] <FrozenFire> Lizzard88: That sounds like an apple-related question, rather than anything to do with Ubuntu. The SSH client is pretty standard across all systems.
[04:25] <pfifo> consoleart, type `sudo dpkg-reconfigure Xorg` on the terminal and then reboot
[04:25] <McKooter> yeah Lizzard, because its somewhat outside the scope and to keep the chat cleaner if you want message me and ill try to help
[04:25] <McKooter> no garuntee
[04:25] <consoleart> pfifo: yes sor
[04:25] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire, (reading win link)
[04:25] <consoleart> pfifo: yes sir
[04:25] <sk8rjess> deww: nvm got it :)
[04:25] <Lizzard88> Well, if someone could tell me how to connect a computer via SSH
[04:25] <Lizzard88> essentially its the same question
[04:25] <StrangeCharm> why would my gnome bar stop responding to clicks, but continue to update with application changes and the like?
[04:26] <krunal> how do i view current partitions on my hdd ?
[04:26] <FrozenFire> Lizzard88: ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[04:26] <consoleart> pfifo: it did say anything and came to the command prompt again...i will restart and will be back..ok ?
[04:26] <borikenmedia> jeje
[04:27] <FrozenFire> krunal: System->Administration->Disk Utility
[04:27] <StrangeCharm> krunal system>admin>disk manager
[04:27] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: That'd be an issue with Gnome Panel.
[04:27] <thunkee> studentz: hmm tty8 is standard install
[04:27] <FrozenFire> Which is separate from the applications themselves.
[04:28] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: I find that happens if I have something like an SSHFS mount which is timing out. It blocks updates to Gnome.
[04:28] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, what would be some good ways to fix it?
[04:28] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: Determine any mounts you have that are lagging.
[04:28] <FrozenFire> Beyond that, I don't know what causes it.
[04:29] <krunal> FrozenFire, I have a 530gb ext4 parition that is mounted to /incoming - i don't see it in Computer
[04:29] <thunkee> studentz: you can check logs, sudo su then cat /var/log/gdm/:0-slave.log
[04:29] <studentz> thunkee ok. I was wrong I though was tty7. In tty7 there is a lot of text.
[04:29] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, what is an sshfs mount?
[04:29] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: Not something you really need to worry about ;)
[04:29] <Meiam> pksadiq:mount: /dev/sdb1 already mounted or /media/phone busy
[04:29] <Meiam> mount: according to mtab, /dev/sdb1 is already mounted on /media/phone
[04:29] <thunkee> studentz: tty7 is terminal for your boot screen
[04:29] <FrozenFire> It's a way of mounting a remote directory to a spot on your filesystem, via SSH.
[04:30] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, well, it seems that it is of concern to me at this time, because my gnome panel isn't responding
[04:30] <John_Abbott> Nother question
[04:30] <John_Abbott> I have unbuntu installed
[04:30] <John_Abbott> But,
[04:30] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: My recommendation would be to simply restart X
[04:30] <John_Abbott> My internet is only laptop.
[04:30] <consoleart> pfifo: i restarted...but its the same...booting to command prompt
[04:30] <FrozenFire> Ctrl-Alt-Backspace
[04:30] <FrozenFire> Save anything you have running, first.
[04:31] <John_Abbott> But
[04:31] <sweetandy> I forget whether I enabled /home encryption when installing this last time, how can I check?
[04:31] <FrozenFire> krunal: Check the directory permissions on /incoming
[04:31] <FrozenFire> krunal: It might not be available because you don't have read access.
[04:31] <John_Abbott> How to I hook up my laptop (with a ethernet cable) and make the internet work?
[04:31] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, how do i make that happen? ctrl-alt-del is mapped to a menu. is there a console command i can use?
[04:31] <pfifo> consoleart, what kind of videocard do you have?
[04:31] <FrozenFire> krunal: I would recommend unmount it and the remount it using the Disk Utility.
[04:32] <pksadiq> Meiam: so I think it's already mounted
[04:32] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: As I said, Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. Not Ctrl-Alt-Delete.
[04:32] <krunal> FrozenFire, how do i unmount it ? sudo unmount /incoming ?
[04:32] <studentz> thunkee  no output
[04:32] <pksadiq> Meiam: cd /media
[04:32] <consoleart> pfifo: how do i check ?
[04:32] <FrozenFire> krunal: sudo umount /incoming
[04:32] <ChaoRhi> John_Abbot: Does what you're hooking up to (router, another pc, etc) have a DHCP server?
[04:32] <pksadiq> Meiam: and check the folders there, might be there
[04:32] <jc> anybody who use ncdump??
[04:32] <Edwin_ach> hi everybody, i have a problem trying to write (p.e. create a single text file) inside a directory where i have rwx permission and i am root. What could be wrong... filesystem, permissions, attributes (has no attributes set)? some idea, friends? 0_0
[04:33] <qwertyjustin> if i encrypt my /home/ folder, will the stop others from booting via live cd and reaching my data?
[04:33] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, ctrl+alt+backspace doesn't do anything
[04:33] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: Hrmm... That's odd.
[04:33] <thunkee> studentz: ls -l /var/log/gdm are there files have they length?
[04:33] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: Might have to do a magic sysrq restart.
[04:33] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire:followed steps on guide, same thing. starting a win/VM on linux pc to see what happens
[04:33] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, tell me more?
[04:33] <ChaoRhi> StrangeCharm: Do the following:
[04:33] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key
[04:33] <pksadiq> Meiam: I beleive that you haven't inserted any pendrive or a @nd hard drive,so I assume , the sdb to be your htc
[04:33] <pksadiq> 2nd*
[04:34] <ChaoRhi> 1.) Hit Ctrl+Alt+1 to get to a CLI and login
[04:34] <ChaoRhi> 2.) run sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[04:34] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: The basic of the Magic SysRQ restart is that you hold Alt+SysRQ and then press, slowly, seconds between each key, "R-S-E-I-U-B"
[04:34] <FishFace> nimbiotics: When you get a chance, look here. Look for 'nikonz' post. It might help you. It did for me in Win7 and should for XP - http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/75-63-windows-samba-issue
[04:35] <dangerous> Not specifically a ubuntu question, but hopefully you might have the answer.  I want to automount my harddrive at boot time, but the problem is that my USB key gets mounted as /dev/sdd at boot time and this drive gets /dev/sde, but if the USB isn't present it will get /dev/sdd.  Is there a different way to refer to the device in the /etc/fstab?
[04:35] <consoleart> pfifo: how do i check ?
[04:35] <ChaoRhi> StrangeCharm: Switching to a TTY and running sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart has saved me countless of times when a OpeGL or SDL app borked in fullscreen
[04:35] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, i acutally already have a terminal, so i'm going to follow ChaoRhi's instruction and sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[04:35] <sweetandy> How do I see whether I enabled /home encryption at install? I've forgotten.
[04:36] <studentz> thunkee file :0-slave.log.1   log2 log3 log4  have length
[04:36] <nimbiotics> FishFace: checking
[04:36] <pfifo> consoleart, ok i suspect you dont have anything special which is all i needed to know. Im thinking that your trying to load a specialized driver but you dont have a specialized card
[04:36] <deww> dangerous: uuid is one way or label is another
[04:36] <thunkee> studentz: is your gdm running in the moment?
[04:36] <dangerous> deww: thanks - gives me something to google
[04:37] <FrozenFire> sweetandy: System->Administration->Disk Utility should tell you.
[04:37] <consoleart> pfifo: ok got that...how do i find which driver i have installed for video card
[04:37] <studentz> thunkee yes I'm in gnome. But I can get out
[04:37] <djindy> Hello, recently I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10, and now I have no window borders, nor can I switch workspaces, among other issues. I've tried completely removing compiz and then reinstalling and that hasn't helped. What should I look for to figure out what the problem is and fix it?
[04:37] <pfifo> consoleart, im looking on the forums now for an approprate howto, just a moment
[04:38] <consoleart> pfifo: thnx
[04:38] <ChaoRhi> StrangeCharm Did that work?
[04:38] <thunkee> studentz: youre in gnome, thought login wont work
[04:38] <aSSogueroZen_SX> someone here uses lxde? (lubuntu or something)
[04:38] <studentz> thunkee I repeat all he previous commands
[04:38] <StrangeCharm> ChaoRhi, yep, with a new gdm comes a new gnome-panel, which is not yet broken
[04:39] <FrozenFire> aSSogueroZen_SX: #lubuntu
[04:39] <studentz> thunkee I could not log in.  I went trough tty1.

[04:48] <FrozenFire> myrkraverk: sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
[04:49] <maribells> ok.........
[04:49] <pfifo> consoleart, this will be a bit more difficult, try to start normally, then issue "sudo lsmod > outputfile" to direct the output to a file you can pastebin when you reboot into safe mode. also, while your stuck at the command prompt, try 'sudo modprobe i915' and then 'startx' and see if you get X to start that way

[04:50] <xiong> Hi, Happy Turkey. I'm trying to upgrade Tracker (metatracker) to 0.8.17 and it demands glib >= 2.24.0. I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 and I'm not really ready to upgrade the OS. I'm sure, if I work at it, I can figure out how to upgrade Glib; but is this just going to cascade? That is, will I get sucked into one dependency after another until nothing but an OS upgrade will end it?
[04:50] <consoleart> pfifo: ok, i appreciate your help...i will shutdown/start and will be back
[04:50] <studentz> thunkee sudo killall give me verbose inf. Did I forget something else in this command?
[04:51] <xiong> -- For that matter, will upgrade to 10.4 solve it all?
[04:51] <thunkee> studentz: pls cat /etc/group and look at line nopasswdlogin
[04:51] <myrkraverk> FrozenFire:: Thank you.  Something must be broken since I never get any reply from that.  Not even from status.
[04:52] <calamity> heya all, I'm trying to download xubuntu for a veeery old IBM laptop, but it seems like all the download options are really slow
[04:52] <calamity> torrent isn't even connecting
[04:52] <calamity> direct dl is est. at a day or two.
[04:52] <thunkee> studentz: hopefully is was killall X :)
[04:52] <FrozenFire> calamity: The torrent might require that you configure port forwarding on your router.
[04:52] <pksadiq> Meiam: I said lsusb  , not lsmod
[04:53] <studentz> thunkee :x:121
[04:53] <FrozenFire> calamity: As for direct download, I tend to get good rates on it.
[04:53] <borikenmedia-wls> [#ubuntu] k-litic
[04:53] <bazhang> borikenmedia-wls, pardon?
[04:53] <calamity> I have no issues witth other downloads, torrent or otherwise. I was more wondering if anyone knew of a possible server issue?
[04:53] <pfifo> calamity, download the 10.10 minimal install and then use it to install base system, then once installed issue 'sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop'
[04:54] <calamity> good idea :)
[04:54] <calamity> Where would I get the minimal install?
[04:54] <FrozenFire> calamity: It could be the mirror you're using ;)
[04:54] <bazhang> !minimal > calamity
[04:54] <Meiam> pksadiq: Sorry http://paste.ubuntu.com/536946/plain/
[04:55] <consoleart> pfifo: here is the pastebin http://pastebin.com/fwscnWjm
[04:55] <ChaoRhi> !minimal > ChaoRhi
[04:55] <pfifo> calamity, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[04:55] <FrozenFire> bazhang: That seems like a roundabout way.
[04:55] <consoleart> pfifo: i tried modprobe i915 and start x...it did not start...it showed up the same error...no screens foudn etc.,
[04:55] <FrozenFire> It's more likely that he's simply downloading from a poor mirror.
[04:55] <FrozenFire> Selecting a faster mirror is the preferable solution.
[04:56] <bazhang> FrozenFire, I did not suggest it, he asked for the minimal link
[04:56] <Whacka> calamity: I used to use Xubuntu, it's not as well supported as the others and lacks a lot of features, I switched to regular Ubuntu with no compositing and it worked about as fast.
[04:56] <calamity> woah. nevermind. the torrent just fixed itself...
[04:56] <calamity> haha
[04:56] <pksadiq> Meiam: try disconnecting and reconnecting the phone and check the dmesg again, any way, it's not connected now
[04:56] <calamity> Whacka, well I'm mostly just needing internet access.
[04:57] <thunkee> studentz: just a test, type your login name behind like in other lines before, you can use nano /etc/group as editor
[04:57] <tgp1994> Hi everyone. I'm on Ubuntu 10.04. I'm trying to install Nvidia drivers the "official" way (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia), however, in the Hardware Drivers program, no options are available for installation. Can anyone help? (P.S. I have a NVIDIA GeForce FX5500)
[04:57] <Meiam> pksadiq: ya I know ...that is the problem I think it is this /media/phone that is still out there it wont let me unmount it.
[04:58] <Whacka> calamity, Try checking if your ISP has an FTP server, they often have linux ISOs there.
[04:58] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, Try installing it from Ubuntu itself, System > Admin > Hardware Drivers
[04:58] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: That's what I said I was trying to do :\
[04:59] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, If no drivers are listed there, then probably it doesn't have the drivers for your card
[04:59] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: There were, before I uninstalled the drivers, (in an attempt to reinstall them)
[05:00] <StrangeCharm> how can i change the links in the 'communication' menu in the system tray (the one that launches empathy)? i want to change the command that launches empathy to something else.
[05:00] <borikenmedia-wls> lol
[05:00] <consoleart> pfifo: did you get my pastebin ?
[05:00] <borikenmedia-wls>  /
[05:00] <breadcrumb> hi
[05:00] <borikenmedia-wls> lol
[05:00] <bazhang> borikenmedia-wls, stop that please
[05:00] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, Well, I'm not on ubuntu right now, but I think there is an option for checking for drivers, it'll find if any drivers available automatically
[05:00] <Meiam> pksadiq: look here is dmesg http://paste.ubuntu.com/536947/plain/
[05:00] <borikenmedia-wls> as?
[05:00] <pksadiq> Meiam: the path /media/phone has mounted nothing, but it's just a folder created manually, you remove it by sudo rm -R /media/phone
[05:00] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: I'll look for that, thanks.
[05:01] <bazhang> borikenmedia-wls, stop with the random nonsense please
[05:01] <FishFace> tgp1994: Thos drivers should be around. I used that card only till recently. How about just going to the Update manager itself - not hardware updates. See if that flys.
[05:01] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, :)
[05:01] <pfifo> consoleart, ok im not seeing any modules that are not getting loading and i915 is there, it looks like this problem is beyond me. For future reference, never ever ever update your system, they will ALWAYS break stuff, even the critical security updates should be ignored.
[05:01] <borikenmedia-wls> :(
[05:01] <Aeronius> Hey, how do you install Ubuntu with a 1GB thumb drive?
[05:01] <bazhang> Aeronius, using unetbootin
[05:01] <pksadiq> Meiam: again pastebin dmesg, if ther is changes
[05:01] <txt23> Hey guys can someone check your download speeds on my server http://www.gujaratisuvichar.com/ubuntu-10.10-server-i386.iso
[05:01] <tgp1994> FishFace: The update manager? I should mention that I'm on mint 9 right now. The only reason I'm not in their support room is because there weren't many people around to help :\
[05:01] <FrozenFire> borikenmedia-wls: This is a support channel. Did you have a support question?
[05:02] <borikenmedia-wls> for?
[05:02] <bazhang> borikenmedia-wls, for Ubuntu
[05:02] <consoleart> pfifo: so what do you suggest for me...can i install x once again...if yes the please give me any pointers ///thnx
[05:02] <calamity> okay this thing is so old the graphical install isn't working
[05:02] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, In windows use Unetbootin to create Live USB and in Ubuntu there is ubuntu disc creator
[05:02] <borikenmedia-wls> jeje
[05:02] <borikenmedia-wls> letme see
[05:02] <calamity> Is there a way to use the old sttyle install?
[05:02] <tgp1994> FishFace: I don't seem to have any updates at the moment. Any other ideas?
[05:02] <studentz> thunkee I log out and in several times here is the output pam_succes_if(gdm:auth): requirements "user ingroup nopasswd login" not met by user "myname"
[05:03] <Aeronius> I'm using the USB disk creator, but it says 1GB is too small
[05:03] <wastrel> this is the ubuntu channel
[05:03] <Aeronius> doesn't make sense
[05:03] <FishFace> tgp1994: Sorry bud. Not for Mint
[05:03] <pfifo> consoleart, format your harddrive and  reinstall ubuntu from CD. Theres about 50 packages related to Xorg and will take ages to reinstall with no guarentee that it will even work, so just start fresh
[05:03] <bazhang> Aeronius, in ubuntu? unetbootin is in the repos
[05:03] <studentz> thunkee pam_sm_authenticate: Called
[05:03] <brophat> memtest results "error: too small lower memory (0x991007 > 0x96c00)" is this a problem?
[05:03] <tgp1994> FishFace: Pretty much the same as ubuntu, are you sure you don't have any other ideas?
[05:04] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, No idea, I created ubuntu live usb many times with my 1GB pen drive
[05:04] <wastrel> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[05:04] <wastrel> ^^^ pfifo consoleart
[05:04] <studentz> thunkee pam_sm_authenticate: username = [myname]
[05:04] <Aeronius> ok, using unetbootin?
[05:04] <bazhang> Aeronius, yep, should do
[05:04] <Meiam> pksadiq: sudo rm -R /media/phone
[05:04] <studentz> thunkee Passphrase file wrapped
[05:04] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, used unetbootin from windows too, never got such like 1GB is too small
[05:04] <consoleart> pfifo: thanks
[05:04] <FishFace> tgp1994: Sorry. None :(
[05:04] <Meiam> pksadiq: http://paste.ubuntu.com/536948/plain/
[05:05] <pfifo> wastrel, that will not uninstall and then reinstall X
[05:05] <tgp1994> FishFace: Alright, thanks anyways.
[05:05] <Aeronius> sudo apt-get it or in the software center?
[05:05] <consoleart> wastrel: is it for installing desktop again ?
[05:05] <bazhang> Aeronius, what version of ubuntu
[05:05] <studentz> thunkee  Error attempting to add filename encryption key to user session keyring: rc = [1]
[05:05] <Aeronius> ok, it says I have it in the software center, I have 9.10, I want to install 10.10 on my laptop that's coming soon
[05:06] <Aeronius> run it from a command line?
[05:06] <bazhang> Aeronius, sudo apt-get install unetbootin
[05:06] <consoleart> wastrel it gives out an error...
[05:06] <studentz> thunkee pam_unix(gdm:session): session opened for user myname by (uid=0)
[05:06] <Aeronius> I got it
[05:07] <Aeronius> now what?

[05:07] <consoleart> Aborting.
[05:07] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: When you mentioned searching for drivers, I think you were indicating the Appearance customizer? When trying to enable effects, it will search for drivers, but then it tells me that it could not enable the effects.
[05:07] <Aeronius> ran it from a command line
[05:07] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, Now start unetbootin from menu
[05:07] <studentz> thunkee pam_ck_connector(gdm:session): nox11 mode, ignoring PAM_TTY :0
[05:07] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, No no, from hardware drivers in the menu
[05:07] <Aeronius> I did it from the command line instead, got a window called UNetbootin
[05:08] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: I don't have any menus there :(
[05:08] <studentz> thunkee pam_unix (gdm:session) : session closed for user myname
[05:08] <studentz> thunkee that is all
[05:08] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, Ya now use that to create live usb
[05:08] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, No idea then, wait and see what other member replies
[05:08] <noobie25> can someone tell me how ti get my background process to the front again?  fg %id says "no such job"
[05:08] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: Alright, thanks.
[05:08] <Aeronius> Wait, when I select Ubuntu as the distribution, the latest it gives me is 9.04_Live
[05:08] <tgp1994> I guess I'm going to have to return, the appearance customizer kind of crashed gnome.
[05:09] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, Are you sure there is nothing like "Search for hardware drivers"??
[05:09] <bazhang> Aeronius, you'll need the 10.10 iso
[05:09] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, use the ISO that you already have instead
[05:09] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: Correct. It seemed like it was trying to search when I started it up, although I'm assuming that failed.
[05:09] <Aeronius> ok, select diskimage, ISO, 10.10 64
[05:09] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, Well, that seems to be a different problem
[05:09] <calamity> hrm. safe-graphics mode might work?
[05:10] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, Ahh, you are using x86_64?? Then I guess 1GB is really small for that
[05:10] <deww> noobie25: how did you send it to the background?
[05:10] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, Not sure though, confirm from bazhang
[05:10] <bazhang> Krishnandu, no it wont
[05:10] <noobie25> deww: i think it went to the background automattically, when i loss connection using ssh.
[05:11] <Krishnandu> bazhang, Okies, but never faced 1GB is too small from ubuntu-disc-creator
[05:11] <noobie25> deww: Status is "S"   i think this is 'suspended' right?
[05:11] <deww> noobie25: nope... type "jobs" to see if it's in the bg
[05:11] <bazhang> Krishnandu, nor have I using unetbootin
[05:11] <thunkee> studentz: is your login name than 9 chars?
[05:11] <thunkee> studentz: longer
[05:11] <Aeronius> bazhang: it says no drive found, reformat as fat32
[05:12] <noobie25> deww:  'jobs'  just gives me back the prompt.
[05:12] <wastrel> noobie25: did you nohup it
[05:12] <noobie25> wastrel:  i'm not sure what nohup is...
[05:12] <Krishnandu> bazhang, Ya neither I, used unetbootin too, lets see what happened
[05:12] <bazhang> Aeronius, be sure to carefully identify the usb stick
[05:12] <wastrel> if the original controlling terminal is gone, you can't get the proc back in the foreground
[05:12] <Aeronius> Yeah, how do I do that?
[05:12] <wastrel> next time use screen
[05:12] <studentz> Thunkee yes it longer than 9 chars and it has digits alphanums n caps
[05:13] <Aeronius> looks like I could easily bork my system real good like this...
[05:13] <Aeronius> I clicked show all drives (Use with Care)
[05:13] <pksadiq> Meiam: I think this is a bug => "usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning",
[05:13] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, Now select the usb drive you can to use
[05:13] <thunkee> studentz: first remove your login from /etc/group nopasswdlogin group
[05:13] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, Carefully, selecting wrong drive will erase all data from that
[05:14] <deww> noobie25: what exactly were you running? jobs don't send themselves to the background automatically?
[05:14] <pksadiq> Meiam: or you haven't plugged in the cable completly
[05:14] <noobie25> wastrel:  aftrer reading wiki,  no i didn't not start the process using nohup.   However, i can see it still as a running process with a Status of "S"
[05:14] <Aeronius> /dev/sda1, shm, etc...
[05:14] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, You can also refer to Ubuntu Downoad page, there is a tutorial on how to use unetbootin
[05:14] <studentz> thunkee sry my login is only 5 char
[05:14] <jschall> is there a PPA to install linux 2.6.36 and does it break anything?
[05:14] <thunkee> studentz: check if home dir is correct ls -l /home
[05:14] <Aeronius> it goes to like 7, and I don't know which is the usb
[05:14] <studentz> thunkee my paswd is the longer one
[05:14] <shin_> hmm where do i go if i have dumb newbie questions?
[05:15] <thunkee> studentz: not your passwd i asked for login name
[05:15] <nit-wit> Aeronius, open gparted and see what the usb is listed as
[05:15] <wastrel> noobie25: like i said, you can't reattach to the process if the original controlling terminal is gone.  next time use screen :/
[05:15] <bazhang> shin_, likely not dumb, just ask here
[05:15] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, use mount command in terminal to verify that
