[22:00] <Minty> newbie and just screwed up mu ubuntu as un isatlled kde and now have a blak start up scrren rather than the normal desk top
[22:00] <Minty> any idees please ?
[22:00] <yoyoned> Jo2: I don't know for sure, but you should check out moodle
[22:00] <BCM43> Minty: can you access text based?
[22:00] <Jo2> what is moodle'
[22:00] <BCM43> !moodle
[22:00] <Minty> yes
[22:00] <BCM43> !info Moodle
[22:00] <sinan> How can i know the sizes of each install package?
[22:00] <Jo2> ah
[22:00] <jclinton> Soliciting the help of an Ubuntu user for testing: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=524665#c96
[22:01] <Jo2> ok
[22:01] <BCM43> Minty: sudo aptitude install gnome
[22:01] <Drk_Guy> Is there such an issue if i just install and use an i386 package on AMD64?
[22:01] <Jo2> :|
[22:01] <Drk_Guy> I mean, AMD64 can run x86
[22:01] <jclinton> Drk_Guy: you cannot install an i386 package on amd64
[22:01] <yoyoned> sinan: if you use synaptic, it shows the size of installed packages
[22:01] <Drk_Guy> jclinton, Real nice
[22:02] <Drk_Guy> jclinton, I'll have to compile from source
[22:02] <epc3> gcleric testing...
[22:02] <Minty> BCM43, doing it now
[22:02] <jclinton> Drk_Guy: or just use i386
[22:02] <skyjumper> jclinton: you can force an i386 package to install
[22:02] <jclinton> skyjumper: yes but it's a really, really bad idea
[22:02] <skyjumper> but it'll only work if the dependencies are met
[22:02] <Jo2> is it posibble to learn this power?
[22:02] <fooks> ok, noob question
[22:02] <Drk_Guy> jclinton, I like AMD64, faster, better, safer
[22:02] <Drk_Guy> !ask | fooks
[22:02] <funkyHat> Does anybody have a mobility radeon 9600 working with compiz on Hardy? (don't know if the mobility bit is relevant, possibly also 9700 or 9800 might be able to help)
[22:02] <Jo2> not from a jedi...
[22:02] <jclinton> Drk_Guy: not faster, but perhaps better if you have >4GB of RAM
[22:02] <fooks> i compiled and installed something, how do i remove the program i just installed
[22:02] <fooks> apt-cache policy doesn't recognize i did so
[22:03] <Drk_Guy> jclinton, I like to use all my processor
[22:03] <fooks> nor does apt-get purge recognize it
[22:03] <Drk_Guy> fooks, cd to dir, make uninstall
[22:03] <fooks> Drk_Guy, hmm
[22:03] <Drk_Guy> fooks, with sudo
[22:03] <jclinton> Drk_Guy: you aren't using all of it if you don't have the quantity of memory needed to use it
[22:03] <sinan> How can i uninstall software that isn't included in synaptic (wasn't installed via apt nor synaptic)
[22:03] <yoyoned> fooks: it depends on what you installed.  sometimes you can go to the directory that you installed from and type make uninstall
[22:03] <Drk_Guy> jclinton, i have 1 GB of RAM, still, i like AMD64, way faster
[22:03] <agahnim> I don't know if anyone can't help me : I'm using a Hp pavilion dv6000 ( dv6418ca) and I can't seem to make the crt-LCD button to work (fn + f4) anyone got any clue how to fix this
[22:03] <dick> fooks: probable "make clean" in the same place you did it should work
[22:03] <jclinton> Drk_Guy: ok fine don't believe me
[22:04] <Drk_Guy> jclinton, -.-
[22:04] <yoyoned> Drk_Guy: the free comand will tell you how much ram you are using

[22:11] <Nocemoscata> i don't know how to use linux
[22:12] <yoyoned> Nocemoscata: have you tried the ubuntu live cd
[22:12] <Nocemoscata> how can i install amule
[22:12] <Nocemoscata> i installed yey ubuntu
[22:12] <Nocemoscata> yet
[22:12] <trippss> after resizing my swap partition, hibernate no longer works on my hardy install. ideas how I should fix?
[22:12] <Nocemoscata> but now i want install amule
[22:12] <Jo2> when I put a game it see transparent
[22:12] <mynetdude> if I don't use my ATI drivers for ubuntu I won't be able to use 3D acceleration right?
[22:13] <MobyGamer> mynetdude: correct
[22:13] <funkyHat> tripps, what size is your RAM, and what size is your swap partition now?
[22:13] <yoyoned> Nocemoscata: from the termina ltype  sudo aptitude install amule
[22:13] <Nocemoscata> yoyoned how can i to do it?
[22:13] <mynetdude> MobyGamer, then how can compiz run without the ATI drivers? (there is a command you can give it to ignore ATI warnings/defaults)
[22:13] <Topler> Has anyone got "steam" working in hardy?
[22:13] <Nocemoscata> can you help me yoyo

[22:13] <v0idnull> hello folks, I have a question. I have three harddrives in my pc, and all are the same make/model. I want to ensure that when I install ubuntu, I'm using the harddrive in the SATA 1 port. Is it safe to that's device 0,0,0?
[22:14] <Drk_Guy> !wine | Topler
[22:14]  * mynetdude isn't happy with the ubuntu's ability to handle 3D
[22:14] <MobyGamer> mynetdude: You can force it to run but without accelerated drivers it's not going to be pretty
[22:14] <yoyoned> look in menu under Accessories for Terminal
[22:14] <mynetdude> MobyGamer I dind't seem to have a problem with it in x64 as I didn't have ATI drivers
[22:14] <Drk_Guy> mynetdude, Hardy has a pretty good graphics layer
[22:14] <mynetdude> MobyGamer but I'm using 32bit now
[22:14] <yoyoned> Nocemoscata: then type: sudo aptitude install amule
[22:14] <MobyGamer> mynet: If that's the case, what are you asking?
[22:15] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy graphic layer separate from acceleration?
[22:15] <funkyHat> mynetdude, there are different drivers that provide some working 3D support for ATI cards... the binary drivers from ATI do, and the open source ati drivers do as well, but neither work for all cards properly
[22:15] <noelferreira> any solution for the 'keys getting stucked' bug?
[22:15] <Topler> yes.. i tried wine but steam is allways crashing... well.. it could depend on my hardware
[22:15] <glam> !suse
[22:15] <dick> nocemoscata: system -> administration -> synaptic . . ., then search for amule , select it and follow the prompts, welcome to linux
[22:15] <MobyGamer> topler: I just broke down and installed virtualbox and run steam in there.  no 3d support but it works for 2d games
[22:15] <Minty> BCM43, have to go, back tomorow, thanks
[22:15] <Bllz> Help!  I'm trying to play an AVI that i took with a digital camera and i get a black image (the actual image will flicker on for a split second).  I do get the proper audio, however, and I do have the ubuntu-restricted-extras package installed.  What gives?

[22:16] <MobyGamer> bllz: Try vlc (videolan) and see if that helps
[22:16] <Drk_Guy> mynetdude, If u use ATi, that's another thing, ATi sucks for linux
[22:16] <jack_spratt> Bllz: have you tried vlc?
[22:16] <mynetdude> funkyHat, Drk_Guy I realize that not all will work perfectly
[22:16] <Bllz> MobyGamer.  Will do... how would i set VLC as the default for handling video?
[22:16] <Topler> thanks mobygamer ^^
[22:16] <yoyoned> Bllz: install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
[22:16] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy my laptop has ATI I don't think I have much of a choice
[22:16] <Drk_Guy> mynetdude, I can run latest windows/native games with nvidia's driver
[22:17] <Drk_Guy> mynetdude, XD
[22:17] <MobyGamer> Bllz: not sure, I think you can right-click on a file and there's an option to set the default type but I'm not in front of it right now and can't remember
[22:17] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy well I'm not looking to run the latest, the laptop doesn't do as well with latest games even in windows
[22:17] <omid> are there any people that can help me to install?
[22:17] <MobyGamer> omid: what problems are you having installing?
[22:17] <erUSUL> omid: any specific problem you are facing?
[22:18] <jack_spratt> omid: im looking at the site. no promise tho.
[22:18] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy it ran EVE Online decently, not great but enough... and Jumpgate but Jumpgate is all 2D
[22:18] <Drk_Guy> mynetdude, XD
[22:18] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy, I know there's an EVE-O port for linux at least that I'd play
[22:18] <omid> no! I don't know how to.... I read the read me file but did not happen any thing
[22:18] <bcardarell1> What is a good program for watching DVD movies?
[22:18] <Drk_Guy> mynetdude, lol

[22:18] <MobyGamer> I run VLC for movies, personally
[22:18] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy tbh I won't be using the ubuntu laptop much anyway... its only for torrenting and going to sites I don't trust
[22:18] <noelferreira> any solution for the 'keys getting stucked' bug?

[22:19] <magnetron> noelferreira: which bug is that?
[22:19] <joaopinto> noelferreira, what bug are you referring to ?
[22:19] <tmapj> can anyone here help explain the 7 layer model to me?
[22:19] <Drk_Guy> Ok mynetdude, whatever you say, IE "safe" mode is not that "safe" XD
[22:19] <joaopinto> !ot | tmapj
[22:19] <FLanon33> lol
[22:19] <FLanon33> hey all
[22:19] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy my problem is that I'm seeing dashes and random blotchy graphics issues so I was wondering if I could run games without ATI drivers and still get 3D support
[22:19] <Joey__> how do i stop routine disk checks on startup from coming up?
[22:19] <MobyGamer> tmapj, try the wikipedia entry to start with, it should help
[22:19] <tmapj> well where do i go for tcpip joaopinto ?
[22:19] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy but since I need ATI drivers, I don't see that happening
[22:19] <rifgemu> Does anyone have a minute to try and help me get freenx working on my 2 ubuntu computers?
[22:20] <jack_spratt> omid: what kind of files are in the download? what sort of thing do the instructsions say/refer to?
[22:20] <joaopinto> tmapj, /list and search for a channel
[22:20] <Jordan_U> Drk_Guy, In what way? It can access far less than firefox can with a default setup
[22:20] <mynetdude> I'll look into grabbing an older xorg.conf
[22:20] <jack_spratt> omid: are we dealing with a package (rpm, deb) or source only?
[22:20] <tmapj> it wont list
[22:20] <mock> what are you guys talking about
[22:20] <yoyoned> Joey__: look at tune2fs command
[22:20] <Drk_Guy> Jordan_U, IE is the most buggiest browser out there, would you ever call it safe?
[22:20] <tmapj> joaopinto,  it wont list
[22:21] <Jordan_U> Drk_Guy, It's always a good idea to run your browser as a user which has no access to your important documents ( which are usually owned by your user and are in your home folder )
[22:21] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy I heard that IE7 is supposed to work better in Vista than XP so essentially less buggy but not bugless
[22:21] <Drk_Guy> Jordan_U, Im talking about winbugs man
[22:21] <Jordan_U> Drk_Guy, I am not talking about IE, I am talking about isolation
[22:21] <omid> what should I tell you about? it's installer (configure, install and many other files...)
[22:21] <joaopinto> erm, can you both stop with the IE bugs talk ? Please keep on topic
[22:21] <yoyoned> Joey__: tunesfs -c 0 /dev/hda1 substitute whatever partition
[22:22] <jack_spratt> omid: sounds like its source only, have you tried to compile it?
[22:22] <Drk_Guy> Jordan_U, If you want isolation, use a VM
[22:22] <Drk_Guy> XD
[22:22] <Joey__> yoyoned, will that screw up the partition?
[22:22] <joaopinto> omid, what software are you trying to install ?
[22:22] <joaopinto> Joey__, no, it will do what you have asked for
[22:22] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy sandboxie instead
[22:22] <user__> is there any other chanel?
[22:22] <omid> It's less than one month that I'm leaving windows and using ubuntu, I don't know many how to install software at that
[22:22] <Joey__> thanks joaopinto and yoyoned
[22:22] <joaopinto> Joey__, if in doubt, please read the tunesfs man
[22:22] <Bllz> still no go in VLC
[22:23] <Joey__> i dont doubt him
[22:23] <jack_spratt> omid: so you havent tried to compile it then?
[22:23] <yoyoned> Joey__: no, but as always, backups will make you happy
[22:23] <LogicalDash> Hi guys. Earlier on I was asking for a replacement defaults.list, thinking this would be necessary in order to automatically open files with the correct application. It turns out that defaults.list is a leftover from an earlier version of GNOME, and I can in fact carry on happily without one, but I didn't know that because I didn't think to check whether things were actually broken the way I thought they were. Let this be a lesson
[22:23] <jack_spratt> omid: done make, configure etc commands
[22:23] <omid> joaopinto it's my finger print software
[22:23] <Bllz> I still can't play avi in VLC...
[22:23] <rifgemu> Ive got freenx installed on both my PCs but i cant seem to get them to connect. Ive tried just about everything ive found by googling. Has anyone who has gotten it working recently help me out?
[22:23] <Joey__> thanks again
[22:23] <chelz> any rhythmbox users around to help me troubleshoot this: http://classicalwebcast.com/chamber.asx ?
[22:23] <Drk_Guy> mynetdude, XD, if they hack the VM, they won't ever access the HD, if they hack another accoutn, they have acess to the HD

[22:24] <joaopinto> jjido, no
[22:24] <jack_spratt> omid: im not going to download the file to check it, bit if there isnt any .deb in there and just install and configure files etc then you need to compile it (im assuming that you checked its i=not already in the repos)
[22:24] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy hmm good point, isn't sandboxie sortof a VM?
[22:24] <noelferreira> magnetron, joaopinto it is not a bug .... is a BUGGGGG https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/194214

[22:24] <funkyHat> Does anybody have a mobility radeon 9600 working with compiz on Hardy? (don't know if the mobility bit is relevant, possibly also 9700 or 9800 might be able to help)
[22:24] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy from what I know sandboxie just isolates any app you tell it to and separates that instance from your windows enviornments so any changes you make are automatically discarded
[22:24] <joaopinto> omid, -–with-Qt-dir=no does not look good
[22:24] <perlsyntax> all it tell me it a dic that it with that command
[22:24] <Bllz> my camera encodes as motion jpeg... is that the same as .AVI?
[22:25] <mynetdude> at least we don't need that kind of stuff in ubuntu I hope
[22:25] <Jewfro> Bllz, no
[22:25] <LogicalDash> Jewfro, out of curiosity, what are the configuration files manipulated by the Preferred Applications dialog?
[22:25] <mynetdude> motion jpg? hehe... no
[22:25] <dmsuperman> ouch
[22:25] <magnetron> noelferreira: all the available info is put up on launchpad. keep tracking your bug there.

[22:25] <TroubleHelix> Hi people. Can someone tell me if there is a way to recursively chmod a set of files while excluding directories themselves? (I want to keep their execute bit set)
[22:25] <Drk_Guy> mynetdude, I would still use a VM
[22:25] <Jewfro> LogicalDash, that I do not know
[22:25] <perlsyntax> Jewfro,All it tell me it a dir that it
[22:25] <Bllz> jewfro:  nice name =)  I got one of those too and i'm not even jewish...  how do I play a motion jpeg in ubuntu then?  Ubuntu identified it as AVI, but it doesn't play properly
[22:25] <LogicalDash> Jewfro, ok, never mind then
[22:25] <Jewfro> perlsyntax, rm -r .vim
[22:26] <noelferreira> lol
[22:26] <omid> joaopinto   I did try it witout -–with-Qt-dir=no too
[22:26] <jjido> joaopinto: thanks!
[22:26] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy it may not be safe from hacking... but any malicious script ran within sandboxie will not affect windows as changes are not written to the HDD
[22:26] <LogicalDash> I kind of suspect it manipulates MIME types, maybe I'll look it up later
[22:26] <Jewfro> Bllz, you probably need some gstreamer codecs for avi
[22:26] <perlsyntax> thanks
[22:26] <Jewfro> Bllz, and thanks - I've quite a jewfro in fact :)
[22:26] <Bllz> jewfro... but it's motion jpeg... now i'm lost
[22:26] <jack_spratt> omid: maybe you should search online for a premade .deb for buntu
[22:26] <joaopinto> omid, you shouldn't use the --with-qt-dir at tall, the configure script is expect to detect your qt dir
[22:26] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy that means if you run a virus, script, etc from a browser or another app within sandboxie and then close it, it all disappears without a trace
[22:26] <Drk_Guy> mynetdude, Ok .. i think so, but it would be the same as UAC, and UAc is very hacked by now
[22:26] <w1k1nG> :}
[22:26] <joaopinto> omid, assumed you have installed the libqt dev package
[22:26] <Jewfro> Bllz, oh sorry, not sure about that - but you could check the ubuntu wiki multimedia page
[22:27] <mynetdude> Drk_Guy UAC is hackable already? sheesh
[22:27] <stroyan> Bllz: Avi files can contain video in any of a variety of codecs.  It isn't wrong to ID the file as AVI.
[22:27] <Drk_Guy> mynetdude, haxx0rs are 1337, XD
[22:27] <Bllz> stroyan. gotcha.  any idea how to play a motion jpeg?
[22:27] <joaopinto> mynetdude, Drk_Guy could you please stop doing offtopic channel ? please join #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:27] <gordonjcp> Bllz: mplayer
[22:27] <joaopinto> erm, chat
[22:27] <omid> and what's this    .deb ?
[22:27] <Bllz> gordonjcp.. tired it but it doesn't work properly... i get audio but mostly black with an occasional flicker of image
[22:28] <gordonjcp> hm
[22:28] <Bllz> omid:  .deb is a debian package
[22:28] <jack_spratt> omid: its a premade install file, like a .exe in windows. .deb is what buntu uses
[22:28] <gordonjcp> Bllz: what's the source video from?
[22:28] <mynetdude> its ontopic because I heard that it is not easy, but doable to hack into root from a non root user in linux
[22:28] <trippss> funkyHat, 512MB RAM, 1.2 GB swap
[22:28] <Bllz> gordonjcp:  a digital camera
[22:28] <Bllz> i just copied the file to the desktop
[22:28] <gordonjcp> Bllz: ah
[22:28] <joaopinto> mynetdude, I don't see anything ubuntu related on your question...
[22:28] <gordonjcp> Bllz: yeah, they sometimes have "funny" files
[22:28] <omid> I found http://www.qrivy.net/~michael/blua/bioapi/   at read me file
[22:28] <jack_spratt> omid: its just the same software, but prepackaged to make it easier to install, compiling from source has to detect a lot more info and make no assumptions
[22:28] <gordonjcp> Bllz: maybe you can try recoding it with avidemux
[22:28] <joaopinto> mynetdude, you are misinformed
[22:28] <omid> what I should download from this site?
[22:29] <Bllz> gordonjcp:  what's the package for that?
[22:29] <stroyan> Bllz: You could try the vlc-nox package and the vlc player.  Or transcode with the mjpegtools package
[22:29] <jack_spratt> ffs
[22:29] <gordonjcp> Bllz: just avidemux
[22:29] <mynetdude> joaopinto you really like to get on people's cases... people are better off in #linux with your chow
[22:29] <Bllz> stroyan:  i laredy have both
[22:29] <jack_spratt> chow?
[22:29] <Bllz> gordonjcp:  i'll give it a shot thanks
[22:30] <trippss> funkyHat, sorry for the late reply; logged in this laptop as trippss with 2 esses so I didn't get notification
[22:30] <Bllz> gordonjcp:  avidemux can play it ... so i'm a bit confuzzled at this point
[22:30] <Miked595_> sup channel
[22:30] <JFlashOFF> i did something wrong i think
[22:31] <gordonjcp> Bllz: mplayer is very good at what it does, avidemux is very good at what it does, but these are not both the same thing ;-)
[22:31] <funkyHat> trippss, ok. so as far as the size is concerned you're fine. I vaguely remember something about partition UUIDs changing messing up swap and hibernate and stuff
[22:31] <falcon3> anyone with dual screens with nvidia glx that wants to share his xorg.conf? i can't get my ubuntu with dual monitors where applications maximize on one screen instead of both
[22:31] <gonzoism> is edubuntu an addon cd for ubuntu ?  i want to install it
[22:31] <gordonjcp> Bllz: oh, and as you've no doubt figured out, mjpeg isn't just mjpeg
[22:31] <funkyHat> trippss, I can't remember where it needs to be fixed though at all
[22:31] <JFlashOFF> i rightclicked the floppy icon and chose "mount".   then it turned to " 1.5 media" and a diskette icon
[22:31] <joaopinto> gonzoism, edubuntu is not an addon, is a differente set of packages
[22:31] <joaopinto> !edubuntu
[22:31] <Bllz> gordonjcp:  yeah i guess so lol.  well i'm sure that if it can play it , it can also transcode it
[22:31] <JFlashOFF> then later i chose "unmount"
[22:32] <trippss> funkyHat, I double checked that and replaced the uuid in fstab as appropriate so I'm not sure that's it. it shows up in free correctly as expected
[22:32] <jjido> joaopinto: I should have gone to the WICD webpage.... There is a Ubuntu package: http://wicd.sourceforge.net/download.php
[22:32] <Xpistos> hey does anyone know who to transfer podcasts from rythmbox to an mp3 player? I have the service checked off, but I don't have the option
[22:32] <JFlashOFF> but it never went back to the name "floppy" it just reads "1.5 mb media" and doesnt read the  diskette anymore
[22:32] <joaopinto> jjido, ah, didn't knew
[22:32] <funkyHat> trippss, there's a different file that the hibernate function uses, not fstab
[22:33] <trippss> funkyHat, ah I see. ok i'll see what I can dig up then
[22:33] <whik> how do i convert a .avi to a .mp4 so it will play on a psp
[22:33] <jack_spratt> omid: if you cant find a suitable .deb to install it from, and it isnt in the repos, then youll have to try compiling it from source again. it didnt work for some reason last time, and youll need to find out what went wrong. follow the readme unless it asks you to do something stupid or dangerous. most likely problems to encounter will be missing libs or packages, which may or may not be availible in the repos. thats one of the advanta
[22:33] <jack_spratt> ges of a package like.deb: it finds and installs any other packages required also. compiling doesnt do that
[22:34] <Jewfro> Whik, ffmpeg can perhaps to that
[22:34] <whik> Jewfro,  so just sudo apt-get install ffmep?
[22:34] <JFlashOFF> let me put it all in one line:  i did something wrong i think:  i rightclicked the floppy icon and chose "mount".   then it turned to " 1.5 media" and a diskette icon. then later i chose "unmount". but it never went back to the name "floppy" it just reads "1.5 mb media" and doesnt read the  diskette anymore. help!
[22:34] <whik> ffmpeg*
[22:34] <Jewfro> whik, ffmpeg yes - it's command line - so do a man ffmpeg afterwords for useage instuctions
[22:34] <joaopinto> whik, if ffmpeg does support it, probably you will find avidemux more friendly
[22:34] <funkyHat> trippss, /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume
[22:35] <omid> jack_spratt I'm doing that! I'm trying to install again using read me file, step by step...
[22:35] <whik> Jewfro,  so just type ffmpeg then the name of the file?
[22:35] <Dasmoover> hey can anyone help me with my gui? xclient ession doesn't boot anything I can only get gui is with failsafe gnome.
[22:35] <trippss> funkyHat, aha! that would probably do it.
[22:35] <Jewfro> whik, no the syntax is a bit more complex - why I said read the man page - if you want graphical try avidemux like joapinto said
[22:35] <whik> joaopinto ill look into that one to
[22:35] <funkyHat> trippss, once that's saved you'll need to do 'sudo update-initramfs -u' to actually apply what you've changed
[22:36] <stroyan> whik: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/menc-feat-handheld-psp.html  or http://can.homeunix.org/sw/psp/ffmpeg_psp/ have HOWTOs.
[22:36] <whik> Jewfro,  joaopinto stroyan thanks
[22:36] <hitsuji> Hey all, just wondering if theres anyone here that can help me, looking to compile a modified kernel module (well patched MadWifi) for a kernel I dont have installed on this machine
[22:36] <hitsuji> and packaged to a.deb
[22:36] <trippss> funkyHat, awesome. thanks for the help!
[22:38] <hitsuji> anyone?
[22:38] <jack_spratt> omid: ok, its a pretty thankless task
[22:39] <omid> jack_spratt but I cannot understand it...!!!!
[22:39] <KrimZon> how do i move my /home folder to a newly created ext3 partition?
[22:39] <agahnim> I don't know if anyone can't help me : I'm using a Hp pavilion dv6000 ( dv6418ca) and I can't seem to make the crt-LCD button to work (fn + f4) anyone got any clue how to fix this
[22:40] <joaopinto> KrimZon, you need to boot from a live cd or on rescue mode so that /home is not mounted
[22:40] <funkyHat> trippss, np :)
[22:40] <joaopinto> then you mount your new partition on some path
[22:40] <joaopinto> you copy the data, from /home to it, and then you adjust the mount points to reflect your change
[22:41] <KrimZon> ah, thanks
[22:41] <amenado> KrimZon-> you dont need the livecd, you can boot into single user mode, mount the new partition and the /home then copy over
[22:41] <joaopinto> like i said, either the live cd or the rescue mode
[22:42] <asmo[B]> is there a way to make it so that my USB devices don't automatically mount?
[22:43] <KrimZon> do i need to do anything in /etc/fstab ?
[22:43] <amenado> asmo[B]-> maybe you have to modify your event.d  entries for usb?
[22:43] <joaopinto> asmo[B], there is, but I don't remember the instructions
[22:43] <joaopinto> KrimZon, yes you will
[22:43] <Dasmoover> hey can anyone help me with my gui? xclient ession doesn't boot anything I can only get gui is with failsafe gnome.
[22:43] <Dasmoover> please?
[22:44] <joaopinto> KrimZon, once the data is your new partion, you want /home to be mounted from it instead
[22:44] <nicolah> I just installed banshee, but the music does not pop up. I configured correctly the media library folder
[22:45] <KrimZon> joaopinto: would that line have a uid in it?
[22:45] <joaopinto> KrimZon, you will need to add the line for the new partition
[22:45] <jack_spratt> omid: the commands arent there to copy and paste into cli? try not to get frustrated
[22:46] <joaopinto> KrimZon, you can get the ids with: sudo blkid
[22:46] <stroyan> hitsuji: I expect you want pbuilder and module-assistant in combination.  You might get by with m-a and the -l and -k options if you have the kernel source installed for the kernel you want to build for.
[22:47] <dmsuperman> does anybody know of a good cheat sheet for all those nifty little system info cmds?
[22:47] <dmsuperman> like joaopinto's "sudo blkid"
[22:47] <dmsuperman> and "cat /proc/cpuinfo"
[22:48] <Iro1> hi. I need some help. How can i install flash in my opera browser? Firefox works ok
[22:48] <zorn> is there a wayto prevent firefox from taking out the audio when it crashes?
[22:48] <joaopinto> dmsuperman, just read some linux commands tutorial
[22:48] <joaopinto> !commands
[22:49] <dmsuperman> joaopinto, I know quite a few commands, it's just those special commands that you need
[22:49] <chelz> is there an updated package list anywhere that has the latest builds of stuff?
[22:49] <dmsuperman> joaopinto, like I  can work the whole OS from the command line, but for those special single use apps I can't ever remember them all
[22:49] <Iro1> How can i install flash in my opera browser? Firefox works ok
[22:49] <dmsuperman> Or many, for that matter
[22:49] <joaopinto> dmsuperman, this are regular commands, whenever you need a specific task you will need to research on it
[22:50] <dmsuperman> yeah
[22:50] <dmsuperman> i just hoped there was a good list of commonly used special-needs commands
[22:50] <dmsuperman> like, how about this
[22:50] <Bucheron> vive les canards
[22:50] <joaopinto> dmsuperman, you can look for some quick references
[22:50] <dmsuperman> is there a command t hat I can use to get information about a window? for example, the type, class, width, height, position, status, etc.?
[22:50] <v0idnull> hello folks, I have a question. I have three harddrives in my pc, and all are the same make/model. I want to ensure that when I install ubuntu, I'm using the harddrive in the SATA 1 port. Is it safe to that's device 0,0,0?
[22:51] <dmsuperman> v0idnull, usually, but not always
[22:51] <v0idnull> dmsuperman: how do I determine it then?
[22:51] <dmsuperman> v0idnull, to be absolutely sure, i'd unplug the others and install to the only remaining one
[22:51] <joaopinto> dmsuperman, there must be, google for it :)
[22:51] <Dasmoover> hey can anyone help me with my gui? xclient session doesn't boot anything I can only get gui is with failsafe gnome.
[22:51] <v0idnull> bleh ok
[22:51] <hitsuji> v0idnull as far as I know it would also depend on your bios settings
[22:52] <joaopinto> v0idnull, do they have any contents, if yes you can mount them just to be sure
[22:52] <sofiankrt> how do I run a command in xterm from another terminal?
[22:52] <ut2004player> Hello, I know this has nothing to do with ubuntu but can someone help me please. Is there any difference between 667 ddr2 ram and 800 ddr2 ram?
[22:52] <dick> yesyes 133
[22:52] <LimCore> ut2004player: I would guess the 800 is faster
[22:53] <calman> can someone help me using sed?
[22:53] <hitsuji> ut2004player in what context?
[22:53] <dick> man sed
[22:53] <ut2004player> does anyone know if this really makes a difference in applciation/games speed?
[22:53] <Waz> whats the command for listing files in a directory by page?
[22:53] <calman> dick it's so hard to use, manpage doesn't help at all
[22:53] <chelz> haha
[22:53] <chelz> 1337 users
[22:53] <chelz> this should be the limit
[22:53] <joaopinto> ut2004player, it does, but you also need to be sure that the motherboard supports that mem speed
[22:53] <sofiankrt> how do I catch user input in an input box from a shell script?
[22:53] <LimCore> ut2004player: probably not too much.  Even for games - most data will be stored on the GFX card
[22:53] <hitsuji> ut2004player not a noticable difference tbh
[22:54] <joaopinto> chelz, do you have a support question ?
[22:54] <dick> sed is powerful but terse google it
[22:54] <joaopinto> sofiankrt, if you want a graphical box, you will need to use zenity
[22:54] <chelz> joaopinto: i do. i'm looking for something along the lines of ubuntu-bleedingedge but actually active
[22:54] <sofiankrt> joaopinto: do I apt-get it or is it already available?
[22:54] <joaopinto> sofiankrt, it's installed by default on ubuntu
[22:55] <LimCore> ut2004player: on ubuntu, check out the tremulous game ( #tremulous )   its a cool 3d quake engine based game
[22:55] <joaopinto> sofiankrt, man zenity :)
[22:55] <calman> dick: google doesn't help either, i just wan't it to output the text between "video_id=" and "&="
[22:55] <sofiankrt> joaopinto: great! so I can get user input without the user running the script from a terminal?
[22:55] <joaopinto> calman, sed uses regular expressions, please learn about regexp
[22:56] <joaopinto> sofiankrt, yes, you should be able to achieve that with zenity
[22:56] <sofiankrt> joaopinto: thanks!
[22:56] <dmsuperman> ut2004player, offtopic, but just so you know 800mhz ram has been known to be a bit less stable than 667. it's really up to you, i personally have never noticed a difference
[22:56] <calman> joaopinto: yeah, i understand regexp, i just don't understand sed...I thought I did but nothign's working for me
[22:56] <saintmykill> I recently blew away my XP partition and made my laptop Ubuntu only.  But now, after resizing/moving my partitions with GParted, Ubuntu no longer recognizes my swap partition.  Does anyone know how to fix this?
[22:56] <dick> then don't google for sed but google for regular expressions, this is what sed uses
[22:56] <dmsuperman> ut2004player, you might want to try irc.gamesurge.net #hardware for hardware questions though
[22:56] <dmsuperman> ut2004player, they have a great bunch of knowledgeable people
[22:57] <ut2004player> oh ok thanks
[22:57] <dmsuperman> saintmykill, have you run swapon for it?
[22:57] <saintmykill> No, I'm still a bit of a noob with stuff like that.  How do I do this?
[22:57] <saintmykill> @ dmsuperman (sorry)

[22:58] <ALPSINC> how do I change the name of my computer that people can see over my network?
[22:59] <raghdam> I was wondering how people felt about the Anonymous package survey?  Would anyone be opposed if it were to be on by default?  Personally, I don't see any negatives of a package survey and was wondering what others thought
[22:59] <dick> calman: my guess is you need to escape the string properly
[22:59] <mellery> my mouse on my laptop (latittude d820) stops working sometimes, i can't click on things, or i can't click and drag, how can i fix it?
[22:59] <ALPSINC> raghdam: privicy policy?
[22:59] <calman> dick: thanks, tried it though
[22:59] <asdf46> raghdam, I don't think it is a huge deal, but it is a slippery slope.

[23:05] <Nostahl> hi all i just put an ubuntu cd in my computer and booted up it brought me to a screen that just says (initramfs)  its black screen with a _ blinking
[23:05] <Nostahl> any idea's what to do
[23:06] <raghdam> @Nostahl Did you try to boot using different parameters?  The noacpi, etc.
[23:06] <jjido> Sorry I got disconnected.
[23:06] <Nostahl> lets see what happens
[23:06] <Jack_Sparrow> Nostahl To get live cd to run this often helps..At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--"
[23:06] <raghdam> What he said.
[23:06] <Dasmoover> please someone help I can't get gui
[23:06] <raghdam> @Dasmoover, does startx work?
[23:06] <Jack_Sparrow> Dasmoover Basic information to help us help you: Which distro/release are you using, have you modified your sources.list, have you compiled programs from source, Is this a regular install or are you running in some sort of virtual machine or did you install with wubi etc?
[23:07] <titan_f_baby> hi
[23:07] <jjido> I have Feisty on a Celeron 300 192MB RAM 10GB. Do you recommend to upgrade?
[23:07] <joaopinto> jjido, the computer, yes :P
[23:07] <Dasmoover> jack sparrow: I've installed a few things, im on hardy, didn't compile from source
[23:07] <raghdam> I would try using the 8.04 server and installing Fluxbox
[23:07] <raghdam> and other lightweight software
[23:07] <titan_f_baby> ok, 8.04 seems to have a lot of problems, would I be better off downgrading instead of trying to fix everything?
[23:07] <Jack_Sparrow> jjido no.. Stick with feisty as long as it is ruuning well
[23:07] <saintmykill> @Joel__, did you catch that link?
[23:08] <raghdam> If it ain't broke don't fix it
[23:08] <jjido> joaopinto: don't say that! :(
[23:08] <raghdam> Are you using GNOME? jjido
[23:08] <daigorobr> ragdham: maybe using alternate, installing a command line interface only and using the ppa for lxde. it worked like a charm for me.
[23:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Dasmoover YOu installed a few things.. from our repos or outside sources
[23:08] <joaopinto> titan_f_baby, what problems are you experiencing ?
[23:08] <raghdam> diagorobr: thank you
[23:08] <jjido> raghdam: Yes Gnole
[23:08] <jjido> Gnome
[23:08] <Dasmoover> repos
[23:09] <raghdam> Try a more lightweight desktop manager, like XFCe
[23:09] <Dasmoover> I can only get on using failsafe gnome, regular gnome doesn't do anything but display my background
[23:09] <raghdam> or even fluxbox.  If you don't like them, you can always switch back/ I noticed huge differences in a system with similar specs
[23:09] <Dasmoover> anyway to reset the xclient script session
[23:09] <jjido> raghdam: I tried but I like the Gnome theme better for Ubuntu
[23:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Dasmoover I get that, but something had to have happened or be added or changed to cause the problem you are having.
[23:10] <Dasmoover> I booted up gparted, then I couldn't edit my partition, so I rebooted into windows, partitioned, came back on
[23:10] <joaopinto> Dasmoover, have you manually edited a xsession script or similar ?
[23:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Dasmoover canyou pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[23:10] <raghdam> Dasmoover: did you try logging in with a new username?
[23:10] <Dasmoover> restored my last session and nothing popped up
[23:10] <pmo> what should i download.. or similar, to do some sort of tar xvf to install / try a ubuntu partition in a directory ?
[23:10] <Nocemoscata> hello
[23:10] <Dasmoover> joapinto: no I have not

[23:12] <javier> hello, i have followed many howtos on how to use my clie in ubuntu, but still i cant synchronising iwth pal os or kpilot, what can i do??
[23:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Dasmoover there is nothing odd in there.
[23:13] <Dasmoover> I know, is there a way I can edit my xsession?
[23:13] <herbee> heyho ;O) this is my first ubuntu day LOL
[23:14] <joaopinto> Dasmoover, check .xsession-errors on your home dir, after causing the problem
[23:14] <joaopinto> I mean, after doing the hand login, switch to a terminal, CTRL-ALT-F1 and check the xerror logs
[23:14] <Dasmoover> http://pastebin.org/45471
[23:15] <Dasmoover> yeah...
[23:15] <kantor> hi, the DVD iso contains what contains the desktop, server and alternate CD iso's, no ?
[23:16] <herbee> dunno got the iso form the dotnetpro magazine
[23:16] <Jack_Sparrow> kantor it also has the repo "main"
[23:16] <Dasmoover> im thinking it's the /usr/bin/compiz.real (core) - Warn: SmcOpenConnection failed: IO error occured opening connection /usr/bin/compiz.real (core) - Fatal: Couldn't open display :0.0
[23:16] <javier> hello, i have followed many howtos on how to use my clie in ubuntu, but still i cant synchronising iwth pal os or kpilot, what can i do??
[23:16] <Dasmoover> along with all the fatal errors
[23:17] <herbee> it's hard with hardy to get a smb connection to my windows shares
[23:17] <kantor> another question it is possible to make an expert install with ubuntu 8.04 ?
[23:17] <kantor> and if yes, then how ? there is no such option
[23:17] <Jack_Sparrow> kantor define expert install
[23:17] <Flannel> kantor: Yes, you need the alternate CD
[23:17] <nickrud> kantor use the alternate cd, or the minimal
[23:17] <joaopinto> kantor, if you want to have more control over the install use the alternate cd
[23:17] <herbee> nautilus just scans the workgroup but doesn't show my shares?
[23:17] <Jack_Sparrow> !minimal
[23:18] <kantor> expert install like in Debian if you know Jack_Sparrow
[23:18] <kantor> joaopinto, but I dowloaded the DVD iso
[23:18] <Jack_Sparrow> kantor never used debial.. define expert install
[23:18] <parci001> white screen of death - ATI graphics problems -- can anybody give suggestions as to commands for diagnostics that may help me find what is wrong?
[23:18] <Jack_Sparrow> debain
[23:18] <Dasmoover> here's my xsession
[23:18] <Dasmoover> http://pastebin.org/45471
[23:18] <nickrud> kantor then you definitely want the minimal cd
[23:18] <parci001> -----
[23:18] <parci001> -------------   white screen of death - ATI graphics problems -- can anybody give suggestions as to commands for diagnostics that may help me find what is wrong?
[23:18] <Jewfro> Jack_Sparrow, Oh thanks for that link! I always really wanted a netinstall disc like debian has - I like to pick my own packages and only install what I use
[23:19] <Flannel> kantor: DVD includes debian installer, I believe.  Or at least ,it used to.
[23:19] <joaopinto> kantor, I have no idead wether the DVD iso provides a live cd install or the alternate method
[23:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Jewfro np
[23:19] <parci001> white screen of death - ATI graphics problems -- can anybody give suggestions as to commands for diagnostics that may help me find what is wrong?
[23:19] <kantor> ok
[23:19] <kantor> thanks
[23:19] <phaedral> I _really_ like xmms, is it really not in any standard respository?
[23:19] <Jewsus> hi um whenever I try to watch movies in any program (totem movie player, vlc, mplayer), the video is choppy or too slow.  is there any way I can fix this?
[23:19] <Scientus___> is theer anyway to turn on compression on samba shares?
[23:20] <phaedral> no love when using sudo apt-cache searc
[23:20] <nickrud> phaedral true
[23:20] <parci001> jewsus - turn of compiz
[23:20] <will02> does anyone know of a good program to convert video files from various formats to something the ps3 can handle?
[23:20] <joaopinto> parci001, you could check /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[23:20] <jrib> !xmms | phaedral
[23:20] <phaedral> :(
[23:20] <Jewsus> parci001 - compiz is off already
[23:20] <parci001> thanks joa
[23:20] <phaedral> audacious, to play my mp3s?
[23:20] <LeviTheSmith> Hey guys. I've come back to Ubuntu :D
[23:20] <phaedral> isn't that kind of an elephant gun for mosquitoes?
[23:20] <jrib> phaedral: it's very similar to xmms
[23:20] <parci001> flicker on video and google earth?
[23:20] <Flannel> phaedral: audacuious is not audacity
[23:20] <Joel__> ok, im back
[23:20] <harfg> Can i stop dhcdbd from getting my providers local lan ip before it gets the external ip
[23:20] <phaedral> k
[23:20] <gtt> i need some serious help with ssh if there's someone that thinks they're good with key based authentication so i dont have to deal with passwords and rsync'll work.
[23:20] <Jewsus> huh
[23:20] <javier> hello, i have followed many howtos on how to use my clie in ubuntu, but still i cant synchronising iwth pal os or kpilot, what can i do??
[23:21] <Joel__> and i already have ndiswrapper
[23:21] <parci001> jewsus - u have flicker on video display (non flash) and google earth display right?
[23:21] <yoyoned> gtt look at ssh-copy-id
[23:21] <Jewsus> i don't know about google earth, i haven't tried it
[23:21] <Jewsus> videos don't really flicker they are just choppy or too slow
[23:22] <parci001> jewsus - sudo apt-get uninstall compiz
[23:22] <parci001> try thta
[23:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Jewsus ati video card perhaps?
[23:22] <parci001> worked for me
[23:22] <parci001> yeah ati lol
[23:22] <parci001> me 2
[23:22] <Joel__> how do i update the firefox beta 5 to the official release?
[23:22] <Jewsus> yeah i think i have ati video card
[23:22] <gtt> yoyoned: i've used that, and according to -v output the keys match and everything, so i don't understand why i'm being prompted for a password. and the sshd_config and ssh_config are the same as another the other way and that doesn't require a password.
[23:22] <parci001> JAck you know about ati cards?
[23:22] <Colin_> what is a good alternative to opendchub???
[23:22] <joaopinto> Joel__, if you are using hardy and you have the updates enabled you should have recevied it already
[23:23] <herbee> pyNeighborhood tells me that the scan of workgroup failed... but worked once? what might be wrong?
[23:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Jewsus /join #compiz they may be able to get it cleaned up
[23:23] <Jewsus> Jack_Sparrow, compiz wasn't even on
[23:23] <Joel__> my update manager says everything is up to date
[23:23] <Jewsus> and now apt-get removing it doesn't fix the problem
[23:23] <parci001> jacksparrow - i have ati card - white screen of death after disabling restricted driver managers --- any ideas dor diagnosis commands that will list some stuff?
[23:23] <joaopinto> Joel__, so you must be running ff3 final, just check on the package manager
[23:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Jewsus THey are still good at helping dial in those ati
[23:24] <Jewsus> okay thanks i'll try it
[23:24] <Beefeater> hmm where is the setting to automatically sign an email with S/MIME in Thunderbird? Anyone?
[23:24] <Gman99999> I can't mount my other hard drive partition since I updated ubuntu, it says failed to mount hard drive, why is that?
[23:24] <Jack_Sparrow> parci001 Sorry, not up for any hard core diagnosing today
[23:24] <Colin_> anyone know of a good alternative to opendchub???
[23:24] <g00se_> Does the latest live CD have any form of Gn/Flash?
[23:24] <parci001> jacksparrow - no just give me a clue as to some config files / diagnostic commands
[23:24] <javier> hello, i have followed many howtos on how to use my clie in ubuntu, but still i cant synchronising iwth pal os or kpilot, what can i do??
[23:24] <phaedral> doh; I was thinking "audacity" instead of "audacious"
[23:24] <parci001> ill figure it out myslef
[23:24] <phaedral> looks awesome, thanks for the hint
[23:25] <joaopinto> Colin_, I am not familiar with that application, please search on Add/Remove
[23:25] <Jack_Sparrow> !ati
[23:25] <Jack_Sparrow> !envy
[23:25] <Joel__> nope, beta 5
[23:25] <Jack_Sparrow> parci001 Disabling composite in the xorg can also help
[23:26] <joaopinto> Joel__, switch to another mirror on the Software Properties
[23:26] <parci001> howd i do that?
[23:26] <parci001> wheres my xorg file at?
[23:26] <xintron> how do I setup a cronjob that runs every hour 24/7?
[23:26] <joaopinto> xintron, man crontab, there is a description of the crontab entries
[23:26] <owen1> i get 'access denied' when trying to mount client with NFS. (and i added the line in /etc/exports)
[23:26] <Jewfro> parci001, /etc/X11/
[23:27] <Jack_Sparrow> parci001 You asked for a hint.. I gave you one...  I need to get going
[23:27] <joaopinto> owen1, have you run exportfs after adding the entry on the nfs server ?
[23:27] <Jewfro> parci001, you can always do: locate filename
[23:27] <jack_spratt> Joel__: know thurston?
[23:27] <Joel__> no
[23:28] <jack_spratt> Joel__: k
[23:28] <parci001> thanks peeps
[23:28] <Beefeater> xintron, 59 23 * * * /usr/bin/foo
[23:28] <obama2008> yooooooo
[23:28] <Beefeater> every hour, my bad
[23:28] <obama2008> yo

[23:28] <xintron> Beefeater: 59 * * * * <command>?
[23:29] <obama2008> i want to make my ibook powersave when i close the lid, i run ubuntu
[23:29] <Dasmoover> jack sparrow: did you see my xession error
[23:29] <javier> has anyone here willing to help me synchronize my palm pilot clie??
[23:29] <owen1> joaopinto: sudo exportfs -a
[23:29] <obama2008> javier yeah its in the add applications menu,
[23:29] <IndyGunFreak> !palm | javier
[23:29] <Guilo> who could explain me why my computer won't boot if libata is compiled in and will boot if compiled as a module ?
[23:29] <joaopinto> javier, I guess is a question of knowledge, not will ;)
[23:30] <Beefeater> xintron, 59 0 * * * /usr/bin/foo
[23:30] <xintron> Beefeater: Ah, thanks :)
[23:30] <javier> joaopinto, yup i cant make ubuntu detect it
[23:30] <amenado> anyone aware yet if a new debootstrap install for Hardy is available? the ones i have is 1.0.9 and hardy is still symlinked to gutsy
[23:30] <obama2008> guilo could error when mounting?
[23:30] <joaopinto> amenado, packages.ubuntu.com ?
[23:31] <CaptainMorgan> can anyone recommend a hardware-RAID implementation that have worked with, of which Ubuntu enjoyed seeing?
[23:31] <Guilo> obama2008 : euh well what do you mean ?
[23:31] <obama2008> javier well first you should 'lspci -v | grep usb' to ensure you have usb.
[23:31] <Gman99999> in ubuntu, when i go to [places>computer] and try to go into another one of my drives i get the "cannot mount volume" error messege. please help!
[23:31] <cecio> hello
[23:31] <_empemp_> Hi. I have very bad 2d performance with my 82855 intel card.  The 3d works great though with Compiz, but scrolling with Firefox is just a pain.   What can be the issue?
[23:31] <obama2008> guilo could be many things wrong with it no?
[23:31] <amenado> joaopinto-> i have 1.0.9 that why i asked if anyone know if there is one for hardy
[23:31] <cecio> !list
[23:31] <dfgas> stupid firefox 3 keeps locking up, on both my computers
[23:31] <obama2008> !palm
[23:31] <joaopinto> amenado, hardy's version is 1.0.9~hardy1
[23:31] <obama2008> there ya go Guilo
[23:31] <Jewfro> Gman99999, try sudo mount /dev/drive /tmp/location
[23:31] <obama2008> !powerpc
[23:31] <javier> obama2008, didnt return anything
[23:32] <CaptainMorgan> !RAID
[23:32] <amenado> joaopinto-> if you have looked inside 1.0.9 it does not use hardy, it still uses gutsy
[23:32] <Jewfro> Gman99999, you can add them to you /etc/fstab file to automount on boot
[23:32] <obama2008> !laptop
[23:32] <obama2008> nice!
[23:32] <Guilo> obama2008 yes, but its not a problem, my pc is ok but i wondered why it had to be compiled as a module, otherwise the kernel can't find the device. I just wondered if anyyone had a technical explaination
[23:32] <joaopinto> amenado, I am actually using it with success
[23:32] <Gman99999> jewfro thanks very much I'll try the fstab
[23:32] <obama2008> not sure guilo
[23:32] <xintron> Beefeater: if I would like to run this using cronjob "sh /home/<user>/script.sh" do I just add that to the file?
[23:32] <c_07> _empemp_ -- I had the same issue when I installed Compiz on Arch, but I've never had that problem with Ubuntu.
[23:33] <joaopinto> amenado, not sure what you are referring to about the link, it does build the hardy base as expected
[23:33] <amenado> joaopinto-> and are you sure you are getting a hardy version ?
[23:33] <schmitty> what html editor works well with ubuntu that you recommend
[23:33] <joaopinto> amenado, yes
[23:33] <bazhang> !html | schmitty
[23:33] <Jewfro> Schmitty, I'm partial to Bluefish
[23:33] <javier> obama2008, it didnt return any code
[23:34] <joaopinto> schallstrom, bluefish, quanta plus
[23:34] <_empemp_> c_07: did u have problems with 3d as well?
[23:34] <parci001> (EE) fglrx(0): atiddxDriScreenInit failed, GPS not been initialized.     --- any ideas???
[23:34] <amenado> joaopinto if you look inside  usr/share/debootstrap/scripts   (once you expand the 1.0.9) you'd think Hardy is in its own, but it still points to gutsy.. so its gutsy that gets installed when debootstrap 1.0.9 is run...maybe there is really no difference except the kernel and initrd
[23:35] <trippss> !xmms
[23:35] <parci001> --------- any ideas ?   (EE) fglrx(0): atiddxDriScreenInit failed, GPS not been initialized.
[23:35] <joaopinto> amenado, that means the same scripts are used, because there are no major changes on the build process
[23:35] <jdwilm> In ubuntu server edition, is port 22 blocked by default?
[23:36] <schmitty> is bluefish work well with gnome?
[23:36] <jrib> jdwilm: no
[23:36] <Jewfro> schmitty, yes
[23:36] <c_07> _empemp_: Can't remember, but I certainly remember the scrolling problems because it was a major pain. I wish I had a solution, but I was never able to get it working properly. I suspect it has more to do with an underlying driver rather than Compiz.
[23:36] <parci001> schmitty ---
[23:36] <joaopinto> amenado, the set packages is being properly installed by specifying the target release on the debootstrap command
[23:36] <mynetdude> does ubuntu support drive encryption?
[23:36] <parci001> schmitty - i prefer Kompozer
[23:36] <mynetdude> !encryption
[23:36] <schmitty> Jewfro: cool
[23:36] <jrib> jdwilm: sudo iptables -L   will show you all the rules (they are empty by default)
[23:36] <mynetdude> !drive encryption
[23:36] <mynetdude> oh shush!
[23:36] <joaopinto> !truecrypt
[23:36] <jdwilm> jrib: ty
[23:36] <mynetdude> ah truecrypt... will that work on windows XP/Vista as well?
[23:37] <parci001> any1 know what this means ? (EE) fglrx(0): atiddxDriScreenInit failed, GPS not been initialized.
[23:37] <_empemp_> c_07: how can i check which graphic driver ubuntu is running?
[23:37] <joaopinto> mynetdude, yes, truecrypt is also available for windows
[23:37] <amenado> joaopinto-> well when i run debootstrap with hardy as the option parameter, low and behold, its gives me gutsy anyways
[23:37] <mynetdude> cool...
[23:37] <mynetdude> !vnc
[23:37] <dobblego> after an upgrade, I don't get menus in GNOME; is this a known issue? I can't seem to google anything up for it
[23:37] <joaopinto> amenado, it works fine on me
[23:38] <usuario_> dddddddd
[23:38] <usuario_> dddddddddddd
[23:38] <joaopinto> usuario_, what is your question ?
[23:38] <clegg__> anyone with an ipod touch? I can access to it's filesystem using sftp, but how do I upload music, video and photos?
[23:38] <usuario_> sory
[23:38] <joaopinto> !pt | usuario_
[23:38] <amenado> joaopinto-> when you download the kernel which one did you specify..thats after running the debootstrap off course
[23:38] <mynetdude> I'm having alittle trouble with understanding how to go about VNC options for ubuntu and my windows systems... I currently have UltraVNC for windows, I couldn't find a linux version of UltraVNC even though google search reveals that there is one
[23:38] <Jewfro> parci001, check your xorg.conf file again, it there a line under the module section?
[23:38] <kitche> !ipod | clegg__
[23:39] <Jewfro> parci001, something like load "glx" or load "dri"
[23:39] <mynetdude> my question is, what VNC option would be suitable for both ubuntu and windows together?
[23:39] <joaopinto> amenado, I am using a script which calls: debootstrap --variant=buildd --arch "+arch+" "+release+" "+chrootdir+" http://pt.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/"
[23:39] <_RainMkr_> Folks I'm struggling with moving the data directory for when using the MySQL package which ships with Ubuntu 8.04 LTS. I keep getting a permissions denied error, anyone have any insight?
[23:39] <joaopinto> where release stands for the distro name
[23:40] <Jewfro> _RainMkr_, sudo mv - chown back to user if needed aftewords
[23:40] <joaopinto> _RainMkr_, when do tou get that error ?
[23:40] <obama2008> !laptop
[23:40] <_RainMkr_> joaopinto: When MySQL tries to write the log files actually. But also a warning when trying to perform the filesystem case test.
[23:41] <hobodave> has ubuntu released an updated package for Ruby addressing the security vulnerabilities?
[23:41] <_RainMkr_> Jewfro: directory permissions are not the issue.
[23:41] <joaopinto> _RainMkr_, you must chown the data dir recuservely to the mysql user
[23:41] <_RainMkr_> joaopinto: already done
[23:41] <javier> how do i upgrade my kernel??
[23:41] <g00se_> Does the latest live CD have any form of Gn/Flash?
[23:41] <joaopinto> g00se_, don't think so
[23:41] <quicksilver_> Hello. :) Does anybody know if the newer Nvidia drivers will make my card run any cooler? (My 8600 is at 59C at the moment, and starts getting all funky at 61C +)
[23:42] <ASULutzy> javier: It should just come down with sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade or sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[23:42] <dldc> javier, updatemanager
[23:42] <_RainMkr_> joaopinto / Jewfro: I should state that using the same my.cnf file, the binary downladed from mysql.com works without any problems.
[23:42] <ASULutzy> javier: Or use update manager
[23:42] <g00se_> joaopinto: Thanks
[23:42] <_RainMkr_> joaopinto / Jewfro: So I really believe this is a package/build issue.
[23:43] <joaopinto> _RainMkr_, oh, it could be an apparmor profile, not sure when is already being shipped with mysql
[23:43] <javier> ok thanks , so if my ubuntu is not detectiong my palm what can it be else than my kernel??
[23:43] <_RainMkr_> joaopinto: Humm... ok, what is that?
[23:44] <joaopinto> _RainMkr_, its a security kit which allows you to specific a set of rules to a given process
[23:44] <joaopinto> there is one for mysql
[23:44] <joaopinto> /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld
[23:44] <amenado> joaopinto-> i wonder if these options are much much different than what you used..  debootstrap --arch i386 hardy /mymountpoint http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[23:44] <cb__> who has setup grsec on ubuntu 8.04?
[23:45] <c_07> _empemp_: Have you checked xorg.conf?
[23:45] <crimsun_> cb__: I have, but not using the default hardy kernels
[23:45] <joaopinto> amenado, nope, it matches my format, and I have chrooted into the resulting system, it works fine
[23:45] <gerald> irc://<IP_ADDRESS>/12chan
[23:45] <bcardarella> Is there a reason why pulse audio won't work on a video file after the audio plays in Flash?
[23:45] <cristian> hi, my sound from internet platforms like youtube doesn't work... what could be the reason for this ?
[23:45] <bcardarella> And is there a fix?
[23:45] <cb__> crimsun_ heh i am a long time nix user but never ran it as my primary desktop
[23:45] <_empemp_> c_07: No, i am not so clever in Ubuntu yet
[23:45] <_RainMkr_> joaopinto: Ok, this looks promising. Thanks. Is there a daemon I need to restart after I edit this file?
[23:46] <joaopinto> _RainMkr_, sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor restart
[23:46] <_RainMkr_> joaopinto: And I'm guessing that apparmor is something akin to SELinux?
[23:46] <Claw6> hello i have a problem : xandros seames not working with my SD/MMC USB reader. when plug in it says "mount: wrong fs type" what can i do ?
[23:46] <Claw6> ****lol xandros i mean xubuntu
[23:46] <c_07> _empemp_: Try "nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf" in a terminal (it'll open read-only).
[23:47] <joaopinto> _RainMkr_, exactly, but uses a different approach, the security policy is filename based instead, and the rules are unix permission alike
[23:48] <Miglow> Hi all
[23:48] <Claw6> problem : xubuntu seames not working with my SD/MMC USB reader. when plug in it says "mount: wrong fs type" what can i do ?
[23:48] <_empemp_> c_07: done, what should i look for?
[23:48] <amenado> joaopinto-> i can easily boot it, its the downloading of the kernel i think thats different between your process and mine,  after I run debootstrap and run apt-cache search linux-image  it only shows gutsy kernels, perhaps its the sources.list i used?
[23:48] <_RainMkr_> joaopinto: Ok, well this more than enough for me to go off, read, and learn. Thanks so much for your help/insight!
[23:48] <glitsj16> bcardarella: you could try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4928900 (parts A & B specifically) to stop flash from hijacking pulseaudio
[23:48] <joaopinto> amenado, yes, that is only related to the sources.list inside your debootstrapped environment
[23:49] <joaopinto> amenado, my script replaces the sources.list inside of the install target
[23:49] <amenado> joaopinto-> yeah, since i copied it from a working gutsy (the sources.list) then perhaps it was only showing me the gutsy kernels..
[23:49] <joaopinto> amenado, yep, that is it
[23:50] <havoque> anyone else having the issue that emerald brings computer to a crawl?
[23:50] <Claw6> problem : xubuntu seames not working with my SD/MMC USB reader. when plug in it says "mount: wrong fs type" what can i do ?
[23:50] <amenado> joaopinto-> okay, i'll go seek for a hardy sources.list and let me compare..
[23:50] <joaopinto> _RainMkr_, yw :)
[23:50] <c_07> _empemp_: I think under the device section you will find the name of the driver. However in my case, Ubuntu seems to manage it without Intel drivers.
[23:51] <Claw6> problem : xubuntu seames not working with my SD/MMC USB reader. when plug in it says "mount: wrong fs type" what can i do ?
[23:51] <_empemp_> c_07: nothign that refers to intel
[23:52] <joaopinto> amenado,:sed -i "s/gutsy/hardy/g"  /path_to_your/etc/apt/sources.list
[23:52] <glitsj16> havoque: no, emerald works smooth here .. running it on top of compiz ?
[23:52] <joaopinto> Claw6, open a terminal and run "dmesg", check the output
[23:53] <Corkster> anyone able to successfully install the nvidia beta drivers on the server kernel ?
[23:53] <havoque> yes, i read somewhere that this might be a driver issue, i have geforce 8600m GT
[23:53] <typedestereo> what's the command to edit the hosts file?
[23:54] <joaopinto> typedestereo, gksudo gedit /etc/hosts
[23:54] <typedestereo> thanks
[23:54] <Claw6> joaopinto:  already done but find nothing useful to me
[23:54] <c_07> _empemp_: Frankly, that's the extent of my knowledge. If you're not sure you have the latest Intel drivers, you could try updating them (http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Ubuntu_7.04/Issues/Intel_945GM_video_issues).
[23:54] <thrashus> ./openssl genrsa -out Rsa2048_1 2048 this only gives me a private key what is the public key, also should i be using a randomfile to seed the process.  Also when i open up the file it is arranged nicely am i supposed to ignore newlines?
[23:54] <Chest> guys is there an essentials package if I want to build/develop c++/c software on Ubuntu
[23:54] <Chest> ?
[23:55] <glitsj16> havoque: hard to debug .. have you tested compiz with a different window decorator like metacity to check if it's more compiz than emerald that's responsible for the trouble ?
[23:55] <joaopinto> Chest, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[23:55] <Pici> Chest: Theres build-essential for compiling
[23:55] <Freakazoi> with ppp connect files, how do i put a password in the config file ?
[23:55] <Chest> thanks
[23:56] <havoque> everything is ok with metacity a.k.a gtk-window decorator, it's only an emerald issue
[23:56] <owen1> how to find my ip?
[23:56] <owen1> from cli
[23:56] <joaopinto> thrashus, what are you trying to achieve with that command ?
[23:56] <joaopinto> owen1, ifconfig
[23:57] <amenado> joaopinto-> okay thanks..
[23:57] <c_07> _empemp_: You can confirm your Intel video card version with "lspci"
[23:57] <owen1> joaopinto: thanks
[23:57] <thrashus> joaopinto i'm trying to make a public/private rsa keys
[23:58] <havoque> glitsj16, doesn't matter, a friend of mine just found a bug report on launchpad with over 20 people experiencing the same behavior
[23:59] <joaopinto> thrashus,  ssh-keygen -t rsa
[23:59] <_empemp_> c_07: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)
[23:59] <_empemp_> 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)
[23:59] <glitsj16> havoque: i see, hope there's a workaround that helps you out
[23:59] <_empemp_> c_07: this indicates everything should be fine?

[08:05] <diplo> Morning all
[08:25] <knightwise> morning diplo
[08:25] <knightwise> how are you today
[08:43] <SuperMatt> g'day
[09:24] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[09:26] <SuperMatt> hullo
[09:26] <SuperMatt> I have upgraded to 18.04
[09:27] <SuperMatt> for some reasons snaps don't work, but otherwise I am pleased with this beta
[09:27] <brobostigon> morning
[09:27] <brobostigon> :)
[09:53] <foobarry> SuperMatt: which DE?
[09:59] <SuperMatt> Gnome
[09:59] <SuperMatt> I've always liked gnome
[10:01] <SuperMatt> I've had a look at kde, budgie and mate, but tbh gnome is the one that sits nicest with me
[10:10] <knightwise> hey everyone
[10:10] <knightwise> mate is nice for light systems
[10:10] <knightwise> cool to see how it has made such a comeback
[10:19] <foobarry> oh the ubuntu gnome beta is out? i thought there wasn't a beta1 of gnome release
[10:20] <foobarry> can i see a screenshot please from your setup?
[10:30] <knightwise> whow
[10:30] <knightwise> just changed the UI from my elementary machine to classic unity
[10:30] <knightwise> its MUCH faster
[10:30] <knightwise> I didnt expect taht
[10:31] <diplo> Hey knightwise - lag response, busy morning.. good thanks, yourself ?
[11:31] <foobarry> anyone good at tensorflow?
[11:41] <SuperMatt> I'm good and beerflow
[11:41] <SuperMatt> *at
[11:41] <brobostigon> and CoffeeFlow. :)
[11:42] <SuperMatt> I'm not a coffee drinker
[11:42] <SuperMatt> tbf, I'm not even a beer drinker
[11:42] <SuperMatt> I just padded out my cv
[11:42] <SuperMatt> I should have said WineFlow
[11:44] <brobostigon> :)
[12:09] <SuperEngineer> did someone say the wine is flowing?  please dm address or send me some]
[13:33] <diddledan> machine learning confuses the poo out of me
[13:33] <diddledan> I think, like quantum physics, anyone who claims to understand it is delusional
[13:34] <foobarry> its taking over the world
[13:34] <foobarry> every research discipline is using tensorflow
[13:34] <foobarry> even humanities
[13:43] <SuperMatt> https://i.imgur.com/Ss2qt.jpg
[13:53] <foobarry> wow clean desktop
[13:53] <SuperMatt> oops, gotta close down irssi now because digital ocean are about to reboot my droplet for spectre/meltdown purposes
[13:54] <daftykins> heh
[13:54] <diddledan> haha
[13:55] <daftykins> hoho
[14:12] <daftykins> mmm so AMD have responded to those CTS Labs findings
[14:14] <diddledan> oh?
[14:15] <daftykins> https://www.anandtech.com/show/12556/amd-confirms-exploits-patched-in-weeks
[14:22] <SuperMatt> successful reboot  \o/
[14:22] <diddledan> \o/
[14:22] <diddledan> daftykins: that amd thingy was real?!
[14:23] <diplo> SuperMatt: not done out of hours, mines scheduled email is in the wee hours of the morning
[14:23] <diddledan> judging by the obviously marketing driven announcement I assumed it was all hot air
[14:23] <diddledan> it's early morning in west-us
[14:23] <daftykins> diddledan: mmm, bit of a surprise
[14:24] <SuperMatt> I preferred mine done in hours, so I could check at a non-stupid hour
[14:24] <diplo> Ah, you can ask that can you?
[14:24] <SuperMatt> I don't know
[14:24] <SuperMatt> I didn't
[14:24] <SuperMatt> I just got an email, and I decided not to question it
[14:24] <diplo> Or just reboot yourself and that's it? wasn't wee hours actually, just checked.. between 19/20:00 utc
[14:25] <daftykins> i haven't lifted a finger with my DO VPS
[14:25] <SuperMatt> They needed to patch the hosts
[14:25] <diplo> Me either tbh daftykins, I normally let them do their thang!
[14:25] <daftykins> yep :)
[15:15] <NET||abuse_> hey guys, i've a new project to undertake, and I haven't programmed for a long while, maybe 3 years
[15:15] <NET||abuse_> rather than default to the easy things i've done before, which would result in a PHP or Python microservice , I am thinking of taking on something like Go or Rust
[15:16] <NET||abuse_> project is to write an events ingestor and consumers for enrichment and storage of that collected event data
[15:18] <NET||abuse_> I thought something like python would be great for the ease of dealing with data libs, like numpy, pandas, etc.. but i think certainly at the parts that are dealing with the direct interfaces to the production stack, the events publishing endpoint listener, and the consumer which pulls in more data from prod systems, a lighter weight binary rather than python would be a nice touch, plus i get to learn something forward looking
[15:39] <foobarry> who has to support it?
[15:46] <diddledan> I volunteer to be ignored when that decision is made
[15:47] <foobarry> i vote python3 for supportability
[15:48] <foobarry> and for when NET||abuse_ falls under a self-driving uber
[15:53] <zmoylan-pi> brainfuck because the cheap skates never paid for private medical insurance?
[15:56] <daftykins> can you carry a soldering iron on flights?
[15:56] <diddledan> I think that already happened considering the lack of responses
[15:57] <zmoylan-pi> don't they ban knittng needles?
[15:58] <zmoylan-pi> even crochet hooks... and probably straight to rubber glove time if you try with a gas powered one...
[15:58] <daftykins> :)
[15:59] <zmoylan-pi> huh, 7" or less allowed... https://travel.stackexchange.com/questions/61047/is-it-possible-to-take-a-soldering-iron-aboard-an-airplane
[16:00] <zmoylan-pi> but some people have had them confiscated by tsa in america...
[16:00] <daftykins> a friend who lives in England these days is planning on dumping a 37" TV when it just sounds like bad caps, heh
[16:00] <zmoylan-pi> yes.. but not everyone is a dab hand with a soldering iron...
[16:01] <daftykins> no, i pointed him to an ebay repair for that exact model for £60
[16:01] <daftykins> he'd not even looked
[16:01] <daftykins> pretty despicable attitude
[16:01] <daftykins> must be excited to buy a new toy...
[16:01] <zmoylan-pi> people are used to throwing good hardware away
[16:02] <zmoylan-pi> i've seen people dump pcs because they were /slow/... when all it needed was a virus removal and a reinstall
[16:02] <zmoylan-pi> but then... i get a free pc... :-)
[16:03] <daftykins> mmm, but he messaged me to ask for advice on a new one, not how to fix the old :D
[16:03] <zmoylan-pi> you could take the old one to the dump for him... repair it, and sell it...
[16:04] <zmoylan-pi> and i don't think anyone is excited by a new printer... except someone sharing a cubicle with a dot matrix... :-D
[16:13] <daftykins> :)
[16:14] <daftykins> well, he's a fair way away up on the mainland
[16:14] <zmoylan-pi> those non islanders... pffffft.... mad i say... :-P
[16:20] <foobarry> had a dodgy key on my new laptop
[16:21] <foobarry> engineer came to replace keyboard, "most keyboards aren't perfect you know". erm one of my keys doesn't work. pretty fundamental
[16:22] <foobarry> i think he was insinuating that i was being fussy
[16:22] <zmoylan-pi> what's th worst that could happn? :-)
[16:22] <foobarry> actually if you hit directly int he middle, it worked
[16:23] <foobarry> but its a "little finger" key, that rarely gets hit square on
[16:26] <foobarry> still doesn't fix the fact i don't have a home/end keys any more:(
[16:26] <zmoylan-pi> use vim... gg gG :-)
[16:28] <zmoylan-pi> a text editor invented before such keys existed :-)


[08:56] <cpaelzer> jlacroix: virt-manager will do the xml stuff, but on 16.04 you will need the apparmor changes mentioned in the bug
[08:56] <cpaelzer> you can manually edit them into the /etc/apparmor/... files as listed in the bgus
[09:04] <cpaelzer> jlacroix: if you use https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OpenStack/CloudArchive#Pike on xenial you'd already have the fixes for apparmor
[09:04] <cpaelzer> depends on you if you want to update to that or change the files
[09:08] <Neo1> hi I installed ubuntu server on VPS using ISO and can't reach in using putty
[09:08] <Neo1> there ssh server is installed, I can reach site using VNC console
[09:10] <Neo1> when I was installing I was asked set up network because DHCP couldn't setup automatically and I skipped this step
[09:10] <Neo1> network is unreachable
[09:11] <Neo1> I did it in VNC console ssh neo@my_id and I get error: network is unreachable, who know how to set up network and is it reason why my putty can't connect?
[09:12] <Neo1> I compare VPS on digitalocean with this unworked and on digitalocean network is setup and works
[09:12] <Neo1> ping <IP_ADDRESS> works
[09:12] <Neo1> in not digitalocean doesn't work
[09:23] <Neo1> guys  what shall I do?
[14:33] <gun1x> stokachu: i tried rancher out, looks like a cool app
[14:33] <gun1x> stokachu: how will ubuntu integrate rancher? cause atm rancher just runs as docker image
[14:33] <gun1x> i mean i am confused to how this will mix with juju


  So wets.  Much Drown.  WoW
[21:33] <ProfessorKaos64> Imma just gonna put this here:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=y04W3RFKxwk


[10:35] <Laney> I think this is the first time I've used new evince on my laptop
[10:35] <Laney> it seems nicely faster than the previous version
[10:35] <Laney> \o/
[10:41] <mitya57> Though we may want backport a fix for gnome #697397 when it gets committed
[10:41] <ubot2`> Gnome bug 697397 in PDF "Segfault when using page-up/page-down in dual mode or home/end in normal mode" [Critical,Unconfirmed] http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=697397
[10:43] <Laney> there's always fixes
[20:45] <Laney> jbicha: will you push your gnome-video-effects changes to debian?
[20:45] <Laney> also, is this in preparation for having it included by default?
[20:46] <jbicha> maybe
[20:47] <jbicha> my initial motivation was just saving several MB from the Ubuntu GNOME iso but I did file bug 1189173
[20:47] <ubot2`> Launchpad bug 1189173 in gnome-video-effects (Ubuntu) "[MIR] gnome-video-effects" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1189173
[20:48] <jbicha> like I said in the bug, I don't know if Debian wants the split since cheese there needs the bad plugins anyway
[20:49] <Laney> because of plugin moves that we do?
[20:52] <jbicha> yes and we patch configure.ac to not require the bad plugins
[20:52] <Laney> right
[20:53] <Laney> I think camerabin was only moved for ubiquity though ...
[20:54] <jbicha> cheese works ok here now without -bad
[20:55] <Laney> anyway, maybe the split makes sense on its own merits


[02:47] <Peon-> I'm about to ask a question that might make some of you facepalm.. but I'll ask it anyway. Is there a lubuntu equivalent of "my computer" like in windows?
[02:49] <Unit193> In Pcmanfm,  Go > My Computer  ?
[05:02] <Peon-> Unit193, thank you, I didn't know where to look.
[05:04] <Unit193> Sure.
[06:52] <Pholey> hello is anybody on?
[06:54] <Pholey> i am having extreme issues with lubuntu and connecting to my wireless network
[06:54] <Pholey> it keeps prompting me for the password i have taken every measure to ensure it is correct, complaining that it is incorrect
[06:55] <Pholey> i have tried it on two different routers and it does not work
[06:55] <Evil-Soul-Sing> the complaining part= password issue?
[06:55] <Pholey> yes
[06:55] <Pholey> and now the installer just failed, grub-2 failed to install
[06:55] <Evil-Soul-Sing> grub2 install/updates goes via sudo
[06:56] <Pholey> yes, but i am installing lubuntu as a whole
[06:56] <Evil-Soul-Sing> do you have-su enabled?
[06:56] <Pholey> im on the live CD
[06:56] <Evil-Soul-Sing> ok
[06:56] <Pholey> So i would assume it would be
[06:56] <Unit193> Might want to check the CD for defects.  During initial boot there will be an option for it.
[06:57] <Evil-Soul-Sing> sudo indeed not su
[06:57] <Pholey> Sadly, there were no errors found already
[06:57] <Pholey> it happened with xubuntu too
[06:58] <Pholey> which leads me to believe there is some sort of problem with my system
[06:58] <Evil-Soul-Sing> keyboard/azerty etc, issue?
[06:58] <Pholey> not any keyboard issues
[06:58] <Pholey> if anything a mouse issue
[06:58] <Unit193> Selecting the correct auth type I'd assume?  No logs in /var/log/?
[06:59] <Evil-Soul-Sing> is it a tailless mouse :)
[06:59] <Pholey> (well, not really the mouse, but i cannot click anything inside a window spawned from a parent window.. i have to use tab to navigate
[06:59] <Unit193> And does this device connect from another operating system?
[06:59] <Pholey> and no, its wired. what do you mean connect from another operating system?
[07:00] <Pholey> the oddest part of it all, is that i can connect to my cell phone's wireless tethering
[07:00] <Evil-Soul-Sing> remote?
[07:00] <Pholey> no, its physically connected to the computer i am working with
[07:01] <Evil-Soul-Sing> ok thx, I really don't know, you could check auth.logs...but..
[07:02] <Pholey> my main concern (aside from the wifi issue) is that i can not alter values with my mouse, only with tab and my keyboard
[07:03] <Pholey> the mouse works fine, and lubuntu recognizes it
[07:03] <Pholey> but there is some kind of issue with the actual window
[07:03] <Pholey> i caught a glimpse of an error when i was using gparted once
[07:06] <Evil-Soul-Sing> x/windows and passwd problems doesn't ring a bell here. i am sorry...:/
[07:06] <Evil-Soul-Sing> very sorry indeed
[07:07] <Pholey> not a problem
[07:10] <Unit193> Wait, wired? 0_o
[12:41] <Suarte45> Unit193: hi, are you here?
[12:43] <Suarte45> Unit193: I noticed that there is a problem with startlubuntu .  Cuz basically my other accounts that work fine will not work if I do Ctrl+Alt+F1, log into one of them and then do startlubuntu. I get the same error message cannot open display. But these accounts work fine if i log into them normally. So the problem is startlubuntu doesnt work for some reason.
[12:46] <Suarte45> Unit193: (assuming that you remember me from yesterday....)
[12:46] <Suarte45> bioterror: are you around?
[13:38] <sma> hi, I put lubuntu 13.04 on an old used laptop I bought. I want to use wireless Internet, but how do I find out if the laptop is even able to do that?
[17:59] <TuxFalk699> hello to everybody
[18:00] <TuxFalk699> i need an information:
[18:00] <TuxFalk699> how can i install codec packages to read prpriety dvd?
[18:00] <TuxFalk699> or original dvd...?
[18:00] <bioterror> !dvd
[18:01] <TuxFalk699> tank u so much
[18:10] <TuxFalk699> k now i must go ..night
[20:08] <ianorlin> http://paste.openstack.org/show/47864
[20:10] <ianorlin> On an installed raring system I found a mention of this being overwritten on install which doesn't seem to make sense
[20:10] <ianorlin> is this a bug?
[20:15] <phillw> looks like a default config file for open box which is created when you install a system.
[20:16] <phillw> you can over ride this by taking a copy to ~home and editing it. that version will not be over written on an update to saucy.
[20:17] <phillw> but, I'm no expert on openbox!
[20:19] <ianorlin> it was in my home directory
[20:21] <Unit193> Then ignore the warning and carry on, simple.
[20:35] <ianorlin> ok
[22:10] <CanuckTux> Guys, I think I broke something
[22:11] <CanuckTux> When I try to log into to my account from the login screen, it seems to start loading, then puts me back to the Display Manager
[22:11] <CanuckTux> I am on guest account now
[22:12] <CanuckTux> also logging in from from a TTY works
[22:12] <Rory> CanuckTux: If you run "ls -al" do you see a file called .Xauthority that is owned by root?
[22:15] <CanuckTux> yes
[22:15] <CanuckTux> it is is both the guest and admin home directory
[22:16] <CanuckTux> should I touch it?
[22:17] <CanuckTux> I stated X from TTY and it booted to default environment
[22:19]  * Canucktux2 has X running on account :D
[22:19] <Canucktux2> now to get it working from the LM...
[22:32] <Canucktux2> so bit of a hack, but atleast I can still login to something graphical
[22:37] <Rory> Canucktux2: Sorry I forgot I was helping... You need to run "sudo chown yourusername: ~/.Xauthority"
[22:38] <Rory> Canucktux2: And in future if you need to run a graphical application with elevated privileges from the command line, use gksu, not sudo

[10:51] <cjwatson> wgrant,stub: Hm, it would be quite helpful if the necessary packages for PostgreSQL 9.3 were in ppa:launchpad/ppa.
[10:54] <cjwatson> (I can grab the binaries from CAT, I guess, but that's not the point really.)
[11:00] <wgrant> cjwatson: Oh, we normally copy them in from pitti's PPA. But that seems to be deprecated.
[12:57] <timrc> wgrant, Is there a way for you to unsubscribe me from all bugs on the somerville project?  I'm apparently directly subscribed to a bunch of bugs and have no interest in being spammed (and it's probably a violation of company policy for me to see these sorts of things anyway)
[13:06] <stub> cjwatson: I'd be jumping to trusty myself...
[13:06] <wgrant> timrc-afk: Hum, that sounds Joey's script isn't being very thorough.
[13:06] <stub> cjwatson: pitti's PPA has been replaced by apt.postgresql.org
[13:06] <stub> wgrant: ^
[13:08] <cjwatson> I don't really want to have my main test setup running a full LTS newer than production, in case I introduce dependencies by accident.
[15:34] <timrc> elmo, wgrant Thanks
