[08:11] <omar> fox*
[08:11] <omar> fix*
[08:11] <DasEi> omar : more detailed ? you wanted fonts..
[08:11] <jim__> DasEi:  there is alot of of  could not resolves
[08:12] <git___> has anyone try to copy 16GB worth of data from / to a mounted loop device ext4 file in ubuntu 9.10?
[08:12] <jim__> kinja-sheep:  help please
[08:12] <DasEi> jim__: unmet dependencies ?
[08:12] <git___> my ubuntu hung
[08:13] <DasEi> jim__: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade                          << throws errors ?
[08:13] <kinja-sheep> jim__: Do this -- "sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit"  <-- There was a typo on my part.
[08:13] <EastDallas> I left a gnome session logged in on a remote machine.  Now I'm home connected via SSH and want to kill the session I left.  I don't want to reboot, because another user is logged on.  Any idea how I do this?  I found some instrux, but I need the PID for that gnome session and don't know how to find it.
[08:13] <jim__> DasEi: could not resolve 'dell-mini.archive.canonical.com
[08:13] <DasEi> git___: you can't copy to  loop device like this
[08:14] <git___> dasei:  i was able to for the first 1.6G, then it choked
[08:14] <ardchoille> EastDallas: gnome-session-save --logout-dialog
[08:14] <alankila> EastDallas: if you can sacrifice every process of yours, type "kill -15 -1" (send TERM to all your processes.)
[08:14] <kinja-sheep> jim__: Ignore it. You're going to format the netbook anyway.
[08:14] <mcnellis> I'm having this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gentoo/+bug/474664
[08:14] <ardchoille> EastDallas: gnome-session-save --logout
[08:14] <git___> the loop device is a bootable qemu image
[08:14] <mcnellis> not sure why it's on gentoo though - but it seems to link to the source of the problem which is from ubuntu? not sure why theres' the crossover
[08:15] <jim__> kinja-sheep:  i did "sudo fdisk -1 | pastebinit"
[08:15] <ardchoille> EastDallas: man gnome-session-save
[08:15] <kinja-sheep> jim__: -l (a letter l) not numbers.
[08:15] <DasEi> git___: either you do an image of / with dd or you sudo cp -R it to a destination big enough
[08:15] <git___> i was hoping to do: rsync -azvH / /mnt/qemu.img --exclude=/dev --exclude=/proc
[08:15] <DasEi> jim__:  L=l  not 1
[08:15] <Fog> you have to do -v in order to see the files being copied with cp?
[08:16] <kinja-sheep> Fog: Yes.
[08:16] <kinja-sheep> Fog: -v stands for --verbose
[08:16] <EastDallas> ardchoille: WARNING **: Unable to start.  Cannot open Display:
[08:16] <DasEi> Fog: nope, use rsync -P for that
[08:16] <git___> somehow i tried dd /dev/sda1 (100GB) to a USB drive, it still chokes at around 34GB
[08:16] <Fog> how can i tell if my wifi card is using wireless 'N', 'G' or 'B'?
[08:16] <llutz> git___: just as a hint, use "rsync -x..." so you don't need those excludes
[08:16] <jim__> kinja-sheep:  let me re do it
[08:17] <ardchoille> EastDallas: you're ssh'd in but without forwarding X ?
[08:17] <jim__> kinja-sheep:  command not found
[08:17] <Fog> why would i use rsync to copy mp3s from one folder to another?
[08:17] <Fog> that would be slower to make all the deltas
[08:17] <git___> thanks llutz
[08:17] <ardchoille> EastDallas: I suppose you could always kill gnome-session
[08:18] <kinja-sheep> Fog: It is not slower.  Just different way to copy.
[08:18] <DasEi> Fog: no, that's not slower than cp, but you will to get a progress and see the actually copied files
[08:18] <EastDallas> ardchoille: the way I'm logged in now, yeah...I'm logged in over a management tool.
[08:18] <jim__> kinja-sheep:  what should i do
[08:19] <llutz> EastDallas: ps -eu, look for "your" gnome-session, kill it
[08:19] <kinja-sheep> jim__: See private messaging.
[08:19] <EastDallas> ardchoille: Do you know how to find the PID for my gnome session?
[08:19] <Allan_C> im having a bit of a brain fart, what file do i back up to save all my ppas and sources?
[08:19] <jim__> kinja-sheep:  how do i do that
[08:19] <alankila> Allan_C: /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:19] <DasEi>  EastDallas: top or htop
[08:19] <alankila> EastDallas: or "pidof gnome-session"
[08:19] <Allan_C> thank you, i knew it was something easy
[08:19] <kinja-sheep> jim__: The tab that you said to me "let me try"
[08:20] <jim__> kinja-sheep:  its gone
[08:20] <ardchoille> EastDallas: ps aux | grep gnome-session
[08:20] <alankila> pidof > ps aux | grep.
[08:21] <ardchoille> EastDallas: alankila is right, use pidof gnome-session
[08:21] <kinja-sheep> jim__: Look around.
[08:21] <DasEi>  EastDallas: ps aux another way
[08:22] <EastDallas> ardchoille: DasEi: ps aux works better
[08:22] <alankila> ps aux is the traditional unix way, but you still have to identify which one of the lines is the right one due to fuzzy matching, sometimes even showing the grep itself.
[08:22] <DasEi> :)
[08:22] <EastDallas> alankila: DasEi: ardchoille: pidof gives me three PIDs, but it doesn't tell me which one belongs to who.
[08:23] <mneptok> EastDallas: htop can group pids by their relation to the master process
[08:23] <alankila> EastDallas: okay, use "ps u <pid>" to look closer at each one
[08:23] <EastDallas> alankila: ps aux tells me right there who the session belongs to.
[08:23] <alankila> the three results means three processes, so you got to identify yours.
[08:23] <DasEi> EastDallas: both ps aux and htop show the owner of the proc
[08:25] <unhackmee> Is there any 'web interface' terminals? how could i get to a remote terminal in a browser, is it possible?
[08:25] <soreau> unhackmee: Why not ssh?
[08:25] <EastDallas> alankila: DasEi: ardchoille:  ps aux | gnome-session worked perfectly...PID killed....thanks
[08:25] <llutz> unhackmee: "webshell", but one don't want to use that
[08:25] <unhackmee> the client..
[08:26] <unhackmee> why?
[08:26] <DasEi> EastDallas: welcome
[08:26] <Zaquatronic> Hey all
[08:26] <unhackmee> i'll try webshell then - any warnings?
[08:26] <Zaquatronic> I have a pretty major problem
[08:26] <llutz> unhackmee: it's a security flaw by design
[08:27] <unhackmee> thanks, but this computer is demiliterized
[08:28] <unhackmee> thanks for helping
[08:28] <reactor> what can I use instead of Conky?

[08:30] <Zaquatronic> and went to watch a youtube video and there is no sound
[08:31] <reactor> guys?
[08:31] <Zaquatronic> this is a new install on a new computer.  It's never had ubuntu so I don't know

[08:34] <ziroday> Lord_mezry: ask in ##windows or #virtualbox
[08:35] <Fog> how come rsync -avP isn't showing a progress bar, just shows the files being copied?
[08:35] <firefox_> soreau,  I fixed it! it is so dumb... iptables -A FORWARD -i wlan1 -o eth1 -j ACCEPT was the problem, I was forwarding the wireless to the eth and masquerading. when I should have been forwarding the eth to wireless.
[08:35] <llutz> Fog: --progress
[08:35] <soreau> firefox_: That's great to hear, glad you got it working

[08:41] <danny_> Hey guys i heard about a program called PlayOnLinux is it any good for playing games?
[08:41] <mattgore> ?DCC SEND "ž??O??#??/?Š??7?t???²??????¯?y{4P???.s~'???+?°?Í????U?m?ã???c???????æ???" 0 0 0

[08:42] <ejwaxx> danny_: I've only played with it briefly.  Someone else might be more familiar with it, but I didn't find PlayOnLinux to be particularly useful.
[08:42] <shakir> no one ?
[08:43] <ejwaxx> shakir: I recall seeing a thread with that problem on the ubuntu forums...i'm hunting a link right now
[08:43] <Fog> llutz --progress is the same as -P, ie doesnt show a progress 'bar', just percentage stuff
[08:43] <shakir> ok i will wait
[08:43] <Lord_mezry> help needed in virtualbox
[08:43] <danny_> Can anyone tell me why when trying to play a game on wine its giving me memory errors. ive done a memcheck and everything checked out
[08:44] <jillsmitt1> who use bluefish? how to disable startup splash?
[08:45] <ejwaxx> shakir: try this link (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1138178&highlight=wake)
[08:45] <llutz> Fog: that is progress
[08:45] <ejwaxx> it pertains to jaunty and not karmic but it sounds like a similar issue to what you're experiencing
[08:45] <jillsmitt1> danny_: try to start application in terminal like this: wine /app_path/app_name
[08:45] <ejwaxx> danny_: what game?
[08:45]  * lwieise87 is away: Gone away for now
[08:45] <syrius> can ubuntu ever report the wrong disc usage of a drive?
[08:46] <danny_> ejwaxx, world of warcraft
[08:46] <shakir> ok ty
[08:46] <ejwaxx> lol sorry i asked :)
[08:46] <Fog> if i cp -r some files then hit ctrl+C to stop it before it's finished copying all the files, then change to 'rsync -a foo/* bar/' it deletes all the files cp already copied?!
[08:46] <madPJKfan> hey everybody
[08:47] <{g}> Hey People! In top, I see Firefox using "787m" of "VIRT" and "592m" of "RES". Is that hard disk and ram memory usage? If so, how can it consume such amounts of mem while the stuff im browsing is probably less then 10m?

[08:51] <APERSON> DasEi, will do
[08:51] <llutz> APERSON: md5sum over the foldercontents
[08:51] <om26er> !sound | Zaquatronic
[08:52] <APERSON> DasEi, might need to install it first, eh? :)
[08:52] <Guest75201> I have a problem with my subversion client and the Key usage violation in certificate
[08:52] <Guest75201> I don't know how to deal with it
[08:52] <APERSON> hmm... no man page found
[08:52] <DasEi> APERSON: wil you make it ? ;-)
[08:53] <Zaquatronic> where is volume control?
[08:53] <DasEi> !info diff | APERSON
[08:53] <APERSON> DasEi, I don't think I needed that :P
[08:54] <danny_> Earlier today i came in asking how to fix the composite extention when putting visual effects on your desktop. well i have found the answer when this happens go to your xorg.conf and change composite device to enable if disabled or on other ubuntu releases change the value from 0 to 1. this way if someone has this problem occur you will now have the answer.
[08:54] <DasEi> Zaquatronic: few possibs, easiest rightclick upper menubar, add  to
[08:54] <DasEi> Zaquatronic: (gnome-)alsamixergui more advanced
[08:55] <APERSON> llutz, can md5 be ran on folders?
[08:55] <llutz> APERSON: nope
[08:55] <Guest75201> it's a problem of the subversion client on ubuntu ?
[08:55] <madPJKfan> anyway to get hardware stats, in particular, for my wireless card?
[08:55] <APERSON> llutz, ah, I need to verify the contents of a 150GB folder :/
[08:55] <madPJKfan> how do I even find out what it is?
[08:56] <kinja-sheep> madPJKfan: "sudo lshw -c network"
[08:56] <Gwince> madPJKfan: Have you tried dmidecode ?
[08:56] <DasEi> APERSON: so diff is your choice, or rsync if you want to sync them case they differ
[08:56] <madPJKfan> Gwince: not tried anything
[08:56] <madPJKfan> kinja-sheep, will give it a go
[08:56] <APERSON> DasEi, running it now
[08:57] <APERSON> diff, that is

[08:58] <mjsor> question about alternative window managers.  Currently have xubuntu installed, want to set an account up to login and use a different window manager that isn't part of the set of available sessions.  Followed instructions on wiki (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CustomXSession), but no luck.  Any pointers?
[08:58] <DaveWM> hello,  i've used a background image for the panel,  currently,  if i have windows open,  if a window is active,  the windows task-button turns solid,  when its inactive,  you can see the panels background,  is there any way i can have it so the background is still visible,  or at least somewhat visible when active ?
[08:58] <Zaquatronic> Dude ubotto DaEi you guys are awesome.  It was as little as configuring ALSA
[08:59] <feisar> just a little bit of info people in here might find encouraging. Because of Ubuntu I have been able to avoid an upgrade to windows 7. My wife (who is a teacher) is now using it as her primary desktop and so far likes it a lot - this is also only possible because 'smart board' software has been released on Linux
[09:00] <DasEi> !brain | Zaquatronic
[09:00] <tawan> my computer is weird - it does not ask password for gksu - ever
[09:00] <ziroday> feisar: awesome!
[09:00] <Zaquatronic> haha +1 to each of you
[09:00] <DasEi> tawan: I don't think so, but once given,it persists for ~15 min
[09:01] <feisar> ziroday: yeah, I think 9.10 is the first version I would have tried it with
[09:01] <Zaquatronic> +1 intelligence
[09:02] <DasEi> !sudo | tawan
[09:02] <Zaquatronic> I totally thought ubottu was a person
[09:02] <DasEi> heh
[09:02] <Zaquatronic> so much time probably went in to that bot
[09:02] <madPJKfan> kinja-sheep, Cheers - sorted it

[09:07] <kingmanor> ziroday: whats the kernel name
[09:07] <Maphiosomirin> llutz its one question only ^^ i dont know if was possible do it.
[09:07] <ziroday> kingmanor: linux-image-server should do it
[09:07] <ejwaxx> Grunge: Does XP have an entry in the bootloader?
[09:07] <Maphiosomirin> llutz i am using the ubuntu server 8.04, and i do apt-get install dist-upgrade, but dont make a upgrade on the version, do you know why ?

[09:08] <sunil1> how to open thunbs.db
[09:08] <Grunge> yes it gives me the choice between ubntu and windows
[09:08] <Grunge> after selecting windows it freezes before loading it
[09:08] <llutz> Maphiosomirin: man apt-get, dist-upgrade won't upgrade distro-versions
[09:09] <Zaquatronic> okay what does "|" mean?
[09:09] <sunil1> how to open files of type "thunbs.db"
[09:09] <llutz> Zaquatronic: its called  pipe
[09:09] <coz_> Zaquatronic,  that is  "pipe"
[09:09] <Zaquatronic> what's it do?
[09:09] <llutz> sunil1: cat thumbs.db
[09:09] <Zaquatronic> pipes things together some how
[09:10] <llutz> sunil1: it's from windows, irfanview? no linux-app would use that
[09:10] <om26er> !dist-upgrade | Maphiosomirin
[09:10] <coz_> Zaquatronic,    In Linux, pipes connect the standard output of one command to the standard input of another command.
[09:10] <Jamed> Zaquatronic: it writes the STDOUT of the command before | to STDIN af the command after
[09:10] <sunil1> i'm getting "There is no application installed for OLE2 compound document storage files"
[09:10] <Maphiosomirin> in ubuntu server, i can do a ltsp server, and the clients have a desktop interface?
[09:10] <Zaquatronic> ahh okay
[09:11] <Zaquatronic> Thanks guys catch you later
[09:12] <sunil1> how to open "RIFF audio files"???
[09:13] <om26er> sunil1: tried vlc,mplayer?
[09:13] <sunil1> do i need to install any thing to open "RIFF audio files"
[09:13] <nightsjammies> I just installed Karmic on a Compaq. Is there a channel for Karmic?
[09:13] <llutz> sunil1: sox
[09:13] <om26er> nightsjammies: this is
[09:13] <sunil1> may i know how to install vlc,mplayer,sox
[09:13] <nightsjammies> Okay. How do I find out if I need to install anything for the graphics card?
[09:14] <syrius> http://verydemotivational.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/129063332564205329.jpg
[09:14] <om26er> sunil1: sudo apt-get install vlc
[09:14] <om26er> *mplayer
[09:14] <llutz> sunil1: please read "man apt-get" and "man apt-cache" too
[09:15] <om26er> syrius: what was that?
[09:15] <om26er> nightsjammies: which card are you using?
[09:15] <syrius> huh?
[09:15] <nightsjammies> No idea. How do I find out.
[09:15] <legend2440> nightsjammies: open system>admin>hardware drivers   anything there?
[09:16] <nightsjammies> no proprietary drivers are in use.
[09:17] <sunil1> for what this command is used :"man apt-cache"
[09:17] <om26er> sunil1: man = manual page
[09:17] <nightsjammies> But when I restarted the comp after upgrading to Karmic, I got some weird graphics errors..
[09:18] <legend2440> nightsjammies: to find out which card you have in terminal try   lspci | grep -i vga

[09:24] <nightsjammies> Crap. How about installing something through Synaptic?
[09:25] <om26er> nightsjammies: yes you can use it or use ubuntu software center
[09:25] <nightsjammies> Um...but how do I know which package(s) to d/l though?
[09:25] <sunil1> could you please find the url http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m3e3e37c8
[09:25] <ocs> hi. if I insert a command in /etc/rc.local it has no effect, after booting, on 8.10 (it seems to work on 9.10) . any idea? thanks
[09:26] <om26er> nightsjammies: search nvidia in software center
[09:26] <om26er> nightsjammies: then look for nvidia-glx-185
[09:28] <nightsjammies> Ah..okay. Thanks much :)
[09:28] <Sick_of_Crap> Morning everyone! :)
[09:28] <tos_> is there a easy package or howto about "jailing" securing users... i.e.  from accessing other dirs than their /home/user dir and limit on processes and space???
[09:28] <tos_> morning!
[09:29] <Sick_of_Crap> Anyone know how to change their password on freenode??
[09:29] <VCoolio> hi; if I do 'dpkg-reconfigure gdm' cdm is not an option; if I hit ctrl+alt+f1 in gdm and login in console, I get a nice cdm login screen; how do I make that default on boot?
[09:29] <tos_> ./msg nickserv help
[09:29] <JimmyJ|zz> Sick_of_Crap, I forgot, but I did it before.

[09:29] <akos_> Hi! There was a command line tool for measuring data passing through a pipe.... I think its name contained two letters only... It outputted any data from stdin to stdout, and outputted to stderr the number of bytes that went through, and the bandwidth... used like nc -l 1234 | xx -b -d | cat > myfile
[09:29] <tos_> ./msg nickserv setpass
[09:30] <danny_> i noticed somthing in termenal when i tried to lauch my game from there 2 things cought my attention 1 says "NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (Permission denied)." the second one says "fixme:d3d:IWineD3DDeviceImpl_CreateQuery (0x162358) Event query: Unimplemented, but pretending to be supported" could these be the reason my game isnt wokring and if so how can i fix it?
[09:31] <sanderj__> How do I know if I have ubuntu 6.10 desktop or server? And is both supported the same time?
[09:31] <hamz1aatova1> how many channels can you put in favorites on xchat???
[09:32] <om26er> hamz1aatova1: as many as you want to some extent
[09:32]  * om26er don't exactly know that
[09:32] <tos_> sanderk, do 'uname -a'
[09:32] <tos_> it will say ubuntu-server
[09:32] <kinja-sheep> hamz1aatova1: Unlimited, I'd guess.
[09:32] <sanderj__> tos_, Ok, I have server
[09:32] <hamz1aatova1> om26er, but i put more than 4 and only four are working at starting
[09:33] <tos_> cool
[09:33] <hamz1aatova1> kinja-sheep,
[09:33] <sanderj__> tos_, is this version of ubuntu still supported?
[09:33] <axos88> Hi! There was a command line tool for measuring data passing through a pipe.... I think its name contained two letters only... It outputted any data from stdin to stdout, and outputted to stderr the number of bytes that went through, and the bandwidth... used like nc -l 1234 | xx -b -d | cat > myfile
[09:33] <om26er> uname -i gives 'unknown'
[09:33] <tos_> sounds old....
[09:33]  * tos_ shrug
[09:33] <krystian> witam
[09:33] <tos_> update it
[09:33] <kinja-sheep> sanderj__: 6.10 is not supported.
[09:33] <om26er> hamz1aatova1: w8 letme try
[09:33] <kinja-sheep> !6.10 | sanderj__
[09:34] <sanderj__> tos_, kinja-sheep: how do I upgrade it?
[09:34] <sanderj__> !eol
[09:34] <kinja-sheep> !upgrading | sanderj__
[09:35] <kinja-sheep> sanderj__: It will be much easier (and faster) if you do the clean installation instead of upgrading.
[09:35] <jasonmchristos> hello
[09:35] <om26er> hamz1aatova1: i restarted xchat and added 5 irc channels and i am connected to all
[09:35] <om26er> hamz1aatova1: automatically
[09:35] <sanderj__> kinja-sheep, ok.. do you know if its as easy to upgrade to latest version of ubuntu... as it is with debian?
[09:35] <jasonmchristos> will someone please help me remove a rootkit i ran chkrootkit and it says that i possibly have LKM and have 12 hidden procs from ps
[09:36] <crash2108> I get "unable to configure serial port" in Putty when trying to connect to a serial port.  How do I fix this? It works in Windows.
[09:36] <jasonmchristos> my ex is USA intelligence i think she put it on here
[09:36] <sanderj__> kinja-sheep, sorry.. I know it aint easy for 6.10.. but between second last and last ubuntu
[09:37] <sunil1>  could you please solve the problem "GStreamer encountered a general supporting library error."
[09:37] <jasonmchristos> or could have been my other ex's dad he works for DOD
[09:37] <kinja-sheep> sanderj__: You would have to change /etc/apt/sources.list to point to the next release, upgrade, then continue all the way to 9.10
[09:37] <kinja-sheep> sanderj__: That sounds like a recipe for messy system, in my opinion.
[09:38] <Homely_Girl> Does anyone here know how to, I guess it's reformat my 2nd hdd??
[09:38] <hamz1aatova1> om26er, ok- idno
[09:38] <jasonmchristos> someone please help me remove LKM rootkit i have so many security keys to reissue everything has been compromised im afraid
[09:39] <sanderj__> kinja-sheep, but is it just to do something like apt-get safe-upgrade .. as it is with debian?
[09:39] <vox> Homely_Girl: what's the issue?
[09:39] <sagarparakh> any body can solve my problem
[09:39] <Homely_Girl> vox: I have 2 drives 10 'n 15, but the 15 appears 2 be in 2 volumes....
[09:40] <kinja-sheep> hamz1aatova1: You can edit the file by "gedit ~/.xchat2/servlist_.conf" --- Edit to your likings. Save it. Restart XChat.
[09:40] <Homely_Girl> vox: it's split into to file systems 'n I want one big 15gb for /home
[09:40] <kinja-sheep> sanderj__: Similar, yes.
[09:40] <kinja-sheep> sanderj__: Read the !upgrading link I gave you earlier.
[09:40] <Homely_Girl> vox: I want all my data stored there. As it is now I can't access it as a d: drive for ex.
[09:40] <sunil1> could you please solve the problem "GStreamer encountered a general supporting library error."
[09:40] <axos88> Is there any built in support for remote desktoping in ubuntu 9.10?
[09:41] <sanderj__> kinja-sheep, but in the older debian versions, there was a longer procedyre of upgrading
[09:41] <sanderj__> kinja-sheep, ok.
[09:41] <crash2108>     Can I ask a question?
[09:42] <kinja-sheep> crash2108: Yes. And I just answered your question.  NEXT!
[09:42] <vox> Homely_Girl: using a pastebin, paste the output of "mount" and "sudo fdisk -l"
[09:43] <crash2108> I get "unable to configure serial port" in Putty when trying to connect to a serial port.  How do I fix this? It works in Windows.   Kinja-sheep?
[09:44] <crash2108> I can only get a response here if I ask to ask.
[09:44] <sagarparakh> how can i restore my ubuntu ?
[09:44] <kinja-sheep> crash2108: Serial port for what?
[09:44] <trijntje> !details | sagarparakh
[09:45] <sunil1> how to open files of type "CHM document files"???
[09:46] <crash2108> Serial port for my built in GPS on NokiaBooklet3G.  For NMEA streaming.  Seems like it needs to be unlocked manually.   Option GlobeTrotter card I think.
[09:46] <sunil1> how to open files of type "CHM document files"???
[09:46] <The_shark_001> is there a defrag for ubuntu?
[09:47] <trijntje> !defrag | The_shark_001
[09:47] <ewook> The_shark_001: the filesystem in question doesn't reqiure 'defrag' as a ntfs or fat partition.
[09:47] <ewook> trijntje: that's better summerized :)
[09:47] <sunil1> how to open files of type "CHM document files"???
[09:47] <kinja-sheep> crash2108: nice laptop.
[09:47] <The_shark_001> cool
[09:47] <trijntje> ewook, thank ubottu ;)
[09:48] <Homely_Girl> vox: Here you go. :) http://imagebin.org/78204
[09:48] <sunil1> how to open files of type "CHM document files"???
[09:48] <ewook> sunil1: there's even a plugin for Firefox for it
[09:48] <legend2440> sunil1: install   chmsee  from synaptic
[09:48] <crash2108> kinja-sheep, really nice. Except for Intel graphics.  And this GPS thing.  Like I said, Got it to work in Windows with Google Earth.  http://discussions.europe.nokia.com/discussions/board/message?message.uid=585824#U585824
[09:49] <sunil1> may i know how to install chmsee  from synaptic???
[09:49] <artypig78> hi, atm, my pc auto looks for an ethernet cable instead of automatically connecting to the wifi. how do i change this?
[09:50] <sunil1> may i know how to install chmsee  from synaptic???
[09:50] <vox> Homely_Girl: ok, so is the windows partition doing anything currently? or is it just empty space?
[09:50] <vegombre1> EastDallas: what if i disconnect the hdd with ubuntu on it . install win7 on the other drive and then reconnect .. and switch boot hdds thru bios .. would it work then?
[09:50] <preben> The ubuntu Archives for Norway gives Hash Sum errors, while other repositories do not give errors. Where do one report this problem?
[09:50] <crash2108> sunil1, sudo apt-get install chmsee
[09:50] <jpds> preben: #ubuntu-mirrors.
[09:50] <kinja-sheep> crash2108: It was released recently?
[09:51] <jpds> preben: You are talking of no.archive.ubuntu.com right?
[09:51] <preben> jpds, yes
[09:51] <preben> jpds, main server and the ftp.unitnet works fine
[09:51] <crash2108> Kinja-sheep, yes, just in 2009.  Same GPS chip as some older netbooks, though.
[09:52] <sunil1> could you solve the problem of url http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m6a020761
[09:52] <tos_> any1 know if a very easy way to "lock out" or limit users to their /home dir?
[09:53] <Mez> Apparently, my FS is using 100% of it's inode's.
[09:53] <Mez> Any idea how I find out where these are being used and how to fix it?
[09:53] <Homely_Girl_> vox: Did u say something to me, sorry system crashed. :(
[09:53] <enzotib> sunil1: your device is full, remove some unneeded files
[09:54] <vox> Homely_Girl: ok, so is the windows partition doing anything currently? or is it just empty space?
[09:54] <sunil1> i am unable to remove files. shall i format my hdd
[09:54] <jasonmchristos> does anyone know how to remove a LKM trojan
[09:54] <jasonmchristos> i ran chkrootkit and found 12 hidden procs from ps
[09:54] <Homely_Girl_> vox: I have a windows partition!! lol The 15gb was given 2 me by a possible Windows user. There is nothing I need on that drive.
[09:55] <jasonmchristos> and a possible LKM trojan
[09:55] <enzotib> sunil1: remove from terminal, not from filemanager, the filemanager use the trash bin
[09:55] <kinja-sheep> crash2108: You could list "sudo lshw -short ~/Desktop/Hardwares.txt" -- Get details on your hardwares.
[09:55] <madPJKfan> anyone know what the "number of desktops" does in compiz, and why I can't set it to more than one?
[09:55] <sunil1> how to remove files from terminal.
[09:55] <legend2440> sunil1: in terminal type  df  is your hard drive full?
[09:55] <enzotib> sunil1: rm filename
[09:56] <vox> Homely_Girl_: oh, thats easy then. sudo apt-get install gparted
[09:56] <kinja-sheep> crash2108: Bad command. :(
[09:57] <om26er> Homely_Girl: or go to software center and install gparted
[09:57] <sunil1> the out put of df is posted at the url http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m2cc13652
[09:57] <Homely_Girl_> vox: Besides needing a password when I log into my pc...is there anyway I can get the system to stop asking for my password? I live alone!! lol
[09:58] <legend2440> sunil1: in terminal type  sudo apt-get clean   then do  df again  to see if it helped
[09:58] <zoug> madPJKfan: in ccsm you mean?
[09:58] <madPJKfan> zoug: aye
[09:59] <vox> Homely_Girl_: not that i'm overtly familiar with. linux is designed to have large amounts of security
[09:59] <Homely_Girl_> vox: and this is why it's superior to other o/s's!! lol
[09:59] <vox> Homely_Girl_: once gparted is installed, click on System -> Administration -> Gparted
[09:59] <enzotib> sunil1: only 2GB for your system? (export GLOBIGNORE=.; du -s ~/*) | sort -nr | head
[09:59] <mbostwick> hello dose anyone know a really kool program to record audio going through the sound board, windows has a program called mp3mymp3 add .com  if you want to see the site, dose anyone know of anything like that for linux? I had trouble with audacity reading and recording the output....
[10:00] <The_shark_001> how many tasks are normal to run in linux?  i'm showing 211 and the system is slugish.  i have 1 gig of memory with an amd 64bit chip.
[10:00] <zoug> madPJKfan: think its the workspaces
[10:00] <Homely_Girl_> vox: I'm there now.
[10:01] <vox> Homely_Girl_: ok, in the top right there's a drop-down menu of the disks in your system. one will say "/dev/sda" and the other "/dev/sdb/".  select the second one
[10:01] <sunil1> please follow http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/mee0586b
[10:01] <Homely_Girl_> vox: Got it, next instruction plse? :)
[10:01] <trijntje> The_shark_001, I have 314 running, your system should not be sluggish
[10:02] <enzotib> sunil1: what is the output of my last command?
[10:02] <trijntje> The_shark_001, it might be your video card? that can make the desktop feel sluggish
[10:02] <rbanffy1> Hi folks. Something weitd happened. The partition my ~/Desktop is symlinked to was not mounted on my last logon and now my desktop points to my home directory. Is there something I can do to fix this?
[10:03] <madPJKfan> zoug: just confused why I can't make "number of desktops" greater than one - can mess with the horizontal and vertical size, but not that
[10:03] <sunil1> the out put of "(export GLOBIGNORE=.; du -s ~/*) | sort -nr | head" is posted at http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m40b62982
[10:03] <vox> Homely_Girl_: you should be able to right-click on each partition, deleting them as you work upwards
[10:03] <tos_> hi... im trying to secure my UBUNTU server... and i added this with crontab -e.........  but how do i make it run every minute... or is there an easy way to do this...
[10:03] <tos_> 02 9 * * * root clamscan --remove  /*
[10:03] <tos_> 02 1 * * * root clamscan -- remove /home/*
[10:04] <Homely_Girl_> vox: done, but it shows as 13,99gb, is that normal for a 15gb? :P
[10:04] <artypig78>  hi, atm, my pc auto looks for an ethernet cable instead of automatically connecting to the wifi. how do i change this?
[10:04] <enzotib> sunil1: rm -rf ~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default/Cache/*
[10:04] <Homely_Girl_> vox: it just says it's unallocated now, do we need to give it a name? :)
[10:04] <vox> Homely_Girl_: yeah, it's 15gb in marketing terms, not technical terms..
[10:05]  * Homely_Girl_ feels robbed of a gig! :(
[10:05] <Homely_Girl_> lol
[10:05] <zoug> madPJKfan: number of desktops is the number of workspaces, try changing it from the panel. plus i never used that feature.
[10:05] <rbanffy1> tos_: It's not a good idea to run it as frequently - it may start before it ends the previous run. For every minute, you would use a line like "* * * * * root clamscan..."
[10:05] <vox> Homely_Girl_: next you need to go to Partition up the top
[10:05] <enzotib> sunil1: and next, df again
[10:05] <crash2108> kinja-sheep, what am I supposed to do with this hardware list?
[10:05] <vox> Homely_Girl_: err, Device
[10:05] <rbanffy1> tos_: For every 5 minutes, you would go "*/5 * * * ...."
[10:05] <vox> Homely_Girl_: then select "Create Partition Table"
[10:06] <Homely_Girl_> vox: then click on create 'n erase the entire disc?
[10:06] <kinja-sheep> crash2108: Useful if you want to know what hardwares specs you have.  Some people have problems with their wifi card so all details are there.
[10:06] <tos_> alright ..  nice
[10:06] <enzotib> sunil1: and also: sudo apt-get clean
[10:06] <vox> Homely_Girl_: gah one moment
[10:06] <crash2108> kinja-sheep, I just want to have working GPS.
[10:07] <Homely_Girl_> vox: Yes I see partition table type, which one do I want?
[10:08] <sunil1> after "sudo apt-get clean" out put is at http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m128f3839
[10:09] <jasonmchristos> i need help
[10:09] <vox> Homely_Girl_: ok, sorry, my bad. go to Partition, then click New
[10:10] <nightsjammies> Okay guys. I think I figured out what's wrong.
[10:10] <Homely_Girl> vox: u can instruct a lil quicker too! :) I'm there now. ;)
[10:10] <nightsjammies> When I start up the computer, it tells me that Ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode.
[10:10] <vox> Homely_Girl: it's been a couple of years since i've done it :P wanted to check i wasnt giving wrong info
[10:11] <Homely_Girl> vox: okay, didn't think they allowed rusty guys in here! lol
[10:11] <nightsjammies> Then it gives me the option to run the computer in said mode for this session only.
[10:11] <sunil1> did you find my url ???
[10:11] <legend2440> nightsjammies: after you installed the nvidia drivers did you open  systen>admin>hardware drivers to see if they were activated?
[10:12] <vox> Homely_Girl: :P where are you up to now?
[10:12] <nightsjammies> Yep, and still nothing.
[10:12] <nightsjammies> But I came across the Nvidia X server settings.
[10:12] <nightsjammies> And it tells me: You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.
[10:12] <Homely_Girl> vox: waiting 4 u, clicked on partition 'n new....and waiting for further instruction
[10:13] <nightsjammies> No idea how to do that.
[10:13] <vox> Homely_Girl: ahh ok. where it says File System on the right, select "ext4"
[10:13] <legend2440> nightsjammies: in terminal type  sudo nvidia-xconfig
[10:13] <Homely_Girl> vox: done
[10:13] <vox> Homely_Girl: now click Add
[10:14] <sunil1> did you find my url http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m128f3839

[10:15] <vox> Homely_Girl: it should show up in the status box something like "Created Primary Partition #1(ext4,xx.xxGiB) on /dev/sdb"
[10:15] <nightsjammies> Anyways. Sorry about that. What should I do now?
[10:15] <vox> Homely_Girl: nah, dont have to give it a name :)
[10:15] <crash2108> So no one knows about having access to an onboard serial GPS?
[10:15] <legend2440> nightsjammies: open  system>admin>nvidia settings
[10:15] <vox> Homely_Girl: we can name it if you wish?
[10:15] <nightsjammies> Okay.
[10:16] <Homely_Girl> vox: But I wanted to call it Blossom! lol It says wot u said it should! lol
[10:16] <Berzerker> I can't create folders/files on my SDCard, says I'm not the owner?
[10:16] <Homely_Girl> vox: only messing! :)
[10:16] <Berzerker> how do I become the owner of my SDCArd
[10:16] <Berzerker> ?
[10:16] <Berzerker> SDCard*
[10:16] <nightsjammies> is the sdcard locked?
[10:16] <Homely_Girl> vox: although if we name it I'll know I'm storing my data in the correct place, won't I! lol
[10:17] <Berzerker> nightsjammies, nope
[10:17] <nightsjammies> huh. So now what do I do legend?
[10:17] <soreau> madPJKfan: The number of desktops should always be set to one. horizontal desktop size should be set to the number of viewports you want for compiz
[10:17] <vox> Homely_Girl: well this is true. delete the partition, then click Partition -> new again
[10:17] <sunil1> did you find my url http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m128f3839
[10:17] <legend2440> nightsjammies: on left panel click X Server Display Configuration    what resolutions are available in the drop down box?
[10:18] <vox> Homely_Girl: put the name you want in there, then set the filesystem to ext4, then click add
[10:18] <nightsjammies> o.O I don't see that
[10:18] <lexie> hi, Is it possible to install Ubuntu from a memory stick?
[10:18] <Homely_Girl> vox: I deleted it 'n when I got to partition/new it's all greyed out! :(
[10:18] <Homely_Girl> vox: is okay it's back now! lol

[10:19] <trijntje> !usb-creator
[10:19] <madPJKfan> soreau: cheers.  Just had a link that said the 3 settings should be 8, 2 and 4
[10:19] <lexie> o.o?
[10:19] <madPJKfan> have never been able to get the number of desktops to be anything other than 1
[10:19] <Homely_Girl> vox: Done! I didn't call it Blossom after all, just Data. :)
[10:19] <nightsjammies> how about using display preferences?
[10:19] <soreau> madPJKfan: compiz plugins only use one desktop
[10:19] <vox> Homely_Girl: haha all good. now, click on the green tick just under Partition
[10:19] <madPJKfan> but, Yay! Verily, compiz doth rocketh!
[10:20] <soreau> madPJKfan: The vertical size can be set if using wall (or expo)
[10:20] <madPJKfan> soreau: cheers - that splains a few things
[10:20] <Homely_Girl> vox: are u available 4 marriage, and do u live in UK? :)
[10:20] <legend2440> nightsjammies: in terninal type  sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings
[10:20] <vox> Homely_Girl: yes, no :)
[10:20] <trijntje> lexie, google knows how to make a bootable ubuntu usb ;)
[10:20] <Homely_Girl> vox: willing 2 relocate? LOL And of a legal age? roflmao!  Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.
[10:21] <Homely_Girl> vox for King!!! :D
[10:21] <nightsjammies> I still get that though.
[10:22] <legend2440> nightsjammies: ok  well nvidia-xconfig created a new  xorg.conf  so a reboot would be a good idea so the new xorg.conf is used
[10:22] <trijntje> lexie: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[10:22] <lexie> Thankyou!
[10:22] <nightsjammies> So then just reboot the computer?
[10:22] <legend2440> yes
[10:23] <nightsjammies> or do I still need to edit the X config file?
[10:23] <legend2440> no
[10:23] <nightsjammies> ok

[10:27] <kinja-sheep> I have a question about aptitude.  When I ran a command to install, it went off to retrieve the package, uncompress, configure and install it.  Correction?  Is there anything I can do to delete the package afterward?
[10:30] <trijntje> lexie, what is your problem?
[10:30] <guntbert> kinja-sheep: sudo aptitude remove <package>
[10:31] <kinja-sheep> guntbert: Right. I'm trying to help somebody with 4GB for a hard drive. I'm not certain if minimal is the way to go considering it'd have to download more than 4GB of packages.
[10:31] <kraut> moin
[10:31] <wm_eddie> ;part
[10:32] <mimir|on> hi, is there a way to use just evolution calendar, standalone, not with all the evolution app ?
[10:32] <kinja-sheep> guntbert: I'm looking for something that'd download, uncompress, install, and delete the package before moving on to the next package.
[10:32] <mimir|on> i don't need the mail part
[10:32] <guntbert> kinja-sheep: ah, I misunderstood - your concern is the package file itself - then my command would not be helpful
[10:33] <kinja-sheep> guntbert: Yes. Obviously. :)
[10:33] <joaopinto> kinja-sheep, a minimal install is not 4GB
[10:33] <joaopinto> minimal as in, no windows manager
[10:33] <mimir|on> or is there a way to disable the mail part from evolution? and leave everything else ?
[10:33] <kinja-sheep> joaopinto: Yes, but we'd be able to install the packages manually.
[10:33] <Igramul> Do I have to use special kernel parameters (grub) to configure a FritzCard Classic (ISA PnP)?
[10:34] <oCean_> kinja-sheep: "apt-get clean" will clear out the local cache of any retrieved packages (/var/cache/apt/archives)
[10:34] <NukkerSQ5> hi,how can i change my session?
[10:34] <joaopinto> kinja-sheep, don't have some kind of external storage, like a 4GB USB pen :P ?
[10:34] <kinja-sheep> joaopinto: 512MB which will be used (for minimal).
[10:35] <isolat3dsh33p> Question: How to install back default packages?
[10:35] <kinja-sheep> joaopinto: Or does the minimal does that automatically? (eg download, then install?) but I'm certain it does obtain all packages first.
[10:35] <[-hide-]> Sup all
[10:35] <[-hide-]> Quick question
[10:35] <kane77> hi, what do I need to modify to modify grub entry in grub2?
[10:35] <kinja-sheep> and... Nevermind.  He left (jimmy_)
[10:35] <joaopinto> kingmanor, same process, download and install, and packages are ketp on cache
[10:35] <NukkerSQ5> how can i change my session?
[10:35] <erUSUL> !grub2 | kane77
[10:35] <joaopinto> ops, was for kinja-sheep
[10:36] <[-hide-]> For installing in Windows Vista...I keep getting this error "Permission denied"
[10:36] <NukkerSQ5> !session
[10:36] <NukkerSQ5> help
[10:36] <[-hide-]> I took over an hour to download this wubi file, is there a way to get past this error?
[10:37] <kinja-sheep> joaopinto: It made me wonder about how people are able to install on their netbooks without minimal approach. I'm guessing that Dell use dd (to hard drives) and make things looks bad on Ubuntu.
[10:37] <om26er> !test
[10:38] <joaopinto> kinja-sheep, oh wait, if you refer to install from cd, packages are not copied to the disk, it's more like a dd from the cd to the target system
[10:38] <kinja-sheep> joaopinto: Because he clicked the upgrading button on notification area, it went ahead to obtain 300 packages and no room.  So his system got b0rked.
[10:38] <adyan2003> who try webmin ? is safe
[10:38] <guntbert> !webmin | adyan2003
[10:39] <erUSUL> !webmin | adyan2003
[10:39] <kinja-sheep> joaopinto: I see. What about the netbooks with no disc?
[10:40] <joaopinto> same, they just ise a livecd based image
[10:40] <bloodski> i have a problem with optical audio on my asus at3n7a-i mobo, i upgraded alsa to 1.0.21 and it still says no optical data on my logitech receiver, and there's no red light from the cable.. analogue audio works tho, any ideas?

[10:43] <tos_> what is a good restricted shell for ubuntu
[10:43] <nightsjammies> I went and deleted the top panel. How do I get back?
[10:44] <legend2440> nightsjammies: click bottom panel and choose New panel then drag it to top
[10:45] <nightsjammies> I don't have a bottom panel.
[10:45] <legend2440> nightsjammies: right click bottom panel and choose New panel then drag it to top
[10:45] <nightsjammies> Or are you talking about the dock?
[10:45] <erUSUL> !resetpanels | nightsjammies
[10:45] <nightsjammies> I have no panel at all.
[10:46] <nightsjammies> Ah...sweet. Thanks much.
[10:47] <nflava> how do i setup samba so that other pcs on my network can see the contents of a shared folder  that i have on my 2nd harddrive, right now i can see the shared folders but i can not access them
[10:47] <sambagirlx> hey do this. go to google.com dont enter anything into the search field. press feeling lucky and look!
[10:49] <nightsjammies> Okay, anyone know how to remove the damn dock?
[10:49] <Othi`> sambagirlx: haha
[10:50] <sambagirlx> isnt that neato?
[10:50] <guntbert> sambagirlx: yes - but off topic *here* :-)
[10:51] <nightsjammies> So anyone know how to kill the dock?
[10:51] <BlouBlou> nightsjammies: killall <process>
[10:52] <BlouBlou> nightsjammies: Use "top" for see what is running
[10:52] <nightsjammies> Will I have to do that everytime? Or is there a way to remove it permanantly?
[10:52] <BlouBlou> nightsjammies: If is configured for start automatically you'll need to chnage it's config
[10:53] <tos_> ok so USERS are able to CD wherever the hell they want in /etc/passwd and whatever, how can i keep them to /home only!?
[10:53] <nightsjammies> Okay. So how do I do that?
[10:53] <nightsjammies> Can I do it through Compiz?
[10:54] <innarr> hello all, we installed latest ubuntu with perl 5.10 - and our web applications stopped working (sql-ledger). is there any simple way to downgrade perl 5.10 to perl 5.8.8? i googled a lot, but there seems to be no easy way out. your replies are welcome as PM's. many many thanks!!
[10:54] <BlouBlou> nightsjammies: Maybe you can remove dock with "sudo apt-get purge <programm>"
[10:54] <nightsjammies> Hmm
[10:54] <Darkedge> ok I had to hard-reset now I when I turn on everything loads fine, but when I get to where GDM would be, it freezes.
[10:55] <Darkedge> black screen.
[10:55] <Darkedge> Any ideas?
[10:55] <Darkedge> -_-
[10:55] <Xaero252> I was wondering if there is a tool that I can run to display an overlay on top of X containing information like GPU temperature, CPU Temperature, and usage?
[10:56] <sinthetek> Xaero252 like conky?
[10:56] <Xaero252> I know conky works for the desktop but that doesnt really help me monitor the temperature when I'm doing full-screen rendering or CUDA based calculation
[10:56] <sinthetek> oh
[10:57] <Xaero252> I've tried adding conky to a widget layer in compiz but that just results in conky's "transparency" failing hard
[10:57] <LA-Snow> is this a good channel for real basic ubuntu stuff?  i want to learn what i can but i'm at a real real basic elementary level.
[10:57] <soreau> Xaero252: conky does not play well with compiz
[10:57] <nisstyre65> !beginner | LA-Snow
[10:57] <LA-Snow> !beginner
[10:57] <nisstyre65> !beginners
[10:57] <LA-Snow> thanks
[10:57] <nisstyre65> argh
[10:57] <nisstyre65> anyway
[10:57] <soreau> LA-Snow: Yes, this is the official ubuntu support channel. Please feel free to ask any questions you have
[10:57] <nisstyre65> the forums are better
[10:57] <NukkerSQ5> how can i change my session?
[10:57] <FloodBot4> nisstyre65: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:58] <Xaero252> soreau: latest compiz from source seems to play pretty well with conky
[10:58] <soreau> Xaero252: okai
[10:58] <Darkedge> Guys? -_- I really need help, I can't boot
[10:58] <soreau> Darkedge: What happens when you try to boot?
[10:59] <NukkerSQ5> hei guys
[10:59] <Darkedge> soreau: I said.. the bootscreen comes up and usally where GDM comes on, It just gives a black screen
[10:59] <LA-Snow> !beginners
[10:59] <soreau> Darkedge: What graphics card do you have?
[11:00] <soreau> ! ask | LA-Snow
[11:00] <Darkedge> soreau: Intel 82845G
[11:00] <nightsjammies> is that dock at the bottom of the screen called a cairo dock?
[11:01] <nisstyre65> does ubottu have any other useful commands other than looking things up or saying stuff?
[11:01] <Bonster> ?
[11:01] <nightsjammies> Never mind. Figured it out. Okay. Night all. Thanks much for all of your help :)
[11:01] <soreau> nightfrog: Not if you aren't using cairo-dock. In gnome, the default is called gnome-panel
[11:02] <oCean_> innarr: this seems close: http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=784595
[11:02] <legend2440> LA-Snow: here is a bigginer guide you can download the pdf   http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/index_main.html
[11:02] <soreau> Darkedge: Which version of ubuntu
[11:02] <mac_> hi guys and happy 2010
[11:02] <mac_> i have a problem
[11:02] <innarr> thanks
[11:02] <LA-Snow> legend2440: yeah i'm currently reading that now.  it's a good resource
[11:02] <mac_> could u help me, please?
[11:02] <ShrHol> rver irc.darksin.it
[11:02] <Darkedge> soreau: 9.10
[11:03] <LA-Snow> legend2440: would you say that KDE is a little more complex than Gnome?  i have both on the machine and i'm trying to learn what i can about both
[11:03] <Xaero252> any ideas on an app/hack that I could use to place an overlay on top of X?
[11:03] <soreau> Darkedge: Does it load ok on the live cd? When did this problem start happening?
[11:03] <mac_> guys????
[11:03] <oCean_> innarr: link might be outdated, since i get a 404 on the download
[11:03] <soreau> mac_: No one can help you if you don't ask your question
[11:03] <legend2440> LA-Snow: i dont use kde
[11:03] <soreau> ! ask | mac_
[11:03] <LA-Snow> legend2440: do you use gnome?
[11:03] <legend2440> yes
[11:03] <Darkedge> soreau: -_- I've just said, I'm on the Live CD and It started happening when I did a hard-reset cause of a freeze.
[11:04] <mac_> i have an old vobis highscreen pc with with win 95 and i want to install linux on it
[11:04] <mac_> but
[11:04] <mac_> it has got a Pentium S CPU
[11:04] <LA-Snow> legend2440: i've got compiz and the compiz manager installed but i can't get the cube going.  do i need to alter some settings or something other than activating the cube?
[11:04] <soreau> Darkedge: So you installed, it was working fine, then it froze, you did a hard reset and then after booting now it gives black screen at gdm?
[11:04] <trijntje> !enter | mac_
[11:05] <soreau> LA-Snow: Yes. Make sure both 'Desktop Cube' and 'Rotate Cube' are enabled in !ccsm.  Then, in General Options --> Desktop Size, set the horizontal virtual size to 4.  Then you can grab the desktop with control+alt+left-mouse-button, and drag the cube around, or rotate the cube with control+alt+left/right.  See: http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/Plugins/Cube
[11:05] <LA-Snow> thanks!
[11:05] <innarr> oCean_: i already found that page, its a pretty long downgrade-howto ... but i will try to do my best if there is no easier way out! thank you!
[11:05] <antxchat357> ciao a tutti
[11:06] <oCean_> innarr: that link might be outdated, since i got a 404 on the download
[11:06] <antxchat357> italiani?
[11:06] <Tayl> Good morning all.
[11:06] <trijntje> !it
[11:06] <Darkedge> soreau: Where gdm should be :P It kinda had a reason for freezing though, I was updating my username while I had my user highlighted so it said "login as user XXX" fact is I just reinstalled Ubuntu cause of a freeze, the same thing happened an Install ago, It froze, the only thing I could think of doing was reinstalling.
[11:06] <oCean_> innarr: however, more people seems to have the same issue (perl 5.10 not 'ready') so there might be a private repository somewhere?
[11:06] <antxchat357> thanks
[11:06] <mac_> soreau: my problem is that i have an old vobis highscreen pc with with win 95 and i want to install linux on it, so i tried to boot from a cd with any linux distro, but it said: "Boot from ATAPI CDROM Failed." is it possible to install linux from the machine' s HDD?
[11:07] <z0man> I recently got a Genius Pen F610 and found there was a ready made driver.  Yet it is only i386 and my machine is an AMD 64bit.
[11:08] <z0man> oh and morning :)
[11:08] <Tayl> =)
[11:08] <bloodski> i have a problem with optical audio on my asus at3n7a-i mobo, i upgraded alsa to 1.0.21 and it still says no optical data on my logitech receiver, and there's no red light from the cable.. analogue audio works tho, any ideas?
[11:09] <LA-Snow> is it normal to have to enable SSID broadcast on a router to connect wirelessly the first time?  i've done it and typed in the SSID and everything but it won't connect that first time unless SSID broadcast is on.  is this normal?
[11:09] <rek_> hei
[11:09] <soreau> mac_: Well it sounds like you have a very old machine so you probably want the lightest or oldest linux distro you can find. Try 'puppy linux' or 'DSL' to get it to boot perhaps
[11:09] <rek_> how can i change my session from terminal
[11:09] <beruic> I have a huge problem with load cycling, and I don't know which files to edit for changing the options. Also I'm not surre whether I should edit hdparm options, or other. Running Karmic.
[11:09] <soreau> DarkEyes: I'm not sure what went wrong but maybe you need to reinstall it again
[11:10] <mac_> soreau: so you think that DSL or Puppy will boot correctly?
[11:10] <soreau> mac_: It's worth a shot. If you look for system requirements for ubuntu, the regular live cd is for more modern machines
[11:11] <mac_> soreau: i' m gonna try it. Thanks a lot.
[11:11] <z0man> My genius pen works kinda... Just non of the buttons do, not even on the pen :(
[11:11] <rek_> hei
[11:11] <z0man> hey
[11:13] <gypsymauro> hi
[11:13] <innarr> oCean_: i think it is pretty impossible to solve 5.10>5.8.8 as a package :) the best solution might be to get ubuntu 8.04 which has LTS+perl5.8.8. but still - please get 5.10 working better soon! :)
[11:13] <bloodski> i have a problem with optical audio on my asus at3n7a-i mobo, i upgraded alsa to 1.0.21 and it still says no optical data on my logitech receiver, and there's no red light from the cable.. analogue audio works tho, any ideas?
[11:14] <bloodski> running ubuntu 9.04 btw
[11:14] <z0man> Hmmm this is interesting, via https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TabletSetup  that my genius mouse pen is really using a "Slim Tablet" driver.
[11:14] <z0man> made by Aiptek
[11:15] <gypsymauro> I've an HP pavilion dv 4 with integrated SIM to connect to internet via mobile phone , in windows vista it works on ubuntu 9.10 I can't find info on google :(
[11:15] <oCean_> innarr: 5.8 is in the hardy repositories. However, that will most likely not solve all dependencies. Revert to 8.04 might be the solution for now
[11:15] <oCean_> innarr: unless there's a 5.8 repo somewhere for Karmic

[11:16] <mac_> soreau: which are the differences between syslinux and isolinux?

I go to appliocations system tools, nothing there! I run command "virtualbox" and terminal tells me that virtualbox is not currently installed!
[11:24] <guntbert> cocolocko_: as that user you just type passwd      -- then you enter the new password twice (no visual feedback)
[11:24] <rek_> how can i change my session from terminal

[11:29] <beruic> @all: I have a huge problem with load cycling, and I don't know which script files to edit for changing the options. Also I'm not surre whether I should edit hdparm options, or other. Running Karmic.
[11:30] <IRC-Client2> hello everyone
[11:31] <guntbert> !hi IRC-Client2
[11:31] <Tayl> Hi there.
[11:31] <IRC-Client2> how are you today folks
[11:31] <guntbert> !ot | IRC-Client2
[11:32] <IRC-Client2> Okay :) thanks for info. Greetings.
[11:32] <beruic> Can anyone help me? I have a huge problem with load cycling, and I don't know which script files to edit for changing the options. Also I'm not surre whether I should edit hdparm options, or other. Running Karmic.
[11:32] <guntbert> cocolocko_: all set?
[11:33] <guntbert> beruic: I don't understand what you are asking (what is load cycling?)
[11:34] <cocolocko_> guntbert: i did the way over CLI, but then i had a error with the ICEauthority
[11:35] <cocolocko_> but okay i will chang it the gui way
[11:36] <Deks> hi, i got a bz2 archive, how can do i veryfy its integrity
[11:37] <st6> i need lower mouse sensitivity than i can get from mouse-conf applet
[11:37] <st6> xset 1/999 1/999 doesnt work either
[11:37] <beruic> guntbert: load cycling is the hard drive parking the reading head and resuming again. It's not good when it does it too often. In Intrepid I changed some scripts that was executed when entering battery state, but don't remember which.
[11:39] <guntbert> beruic: now I see - but sorry - no help from me :-(
[11:39] <innarr> oCean_: no karmic repo for 5.8... so moving back to 8.04 seems to be the best solution. still for 8.04 there are things like flash, sound and id-card utilities that work better under karmic
[11:42] <trud> Guys? anyone would like to help me out with Audio? (I'm sorry I'm new in IRC I just tryed forums etc. non of help)
[11:42] <iKernel> beruic, couldn't you keep some program running that would cause the disk to keep spinning, as a temporary measure?
[11:43] <iKernel> trud, don't ask to ask, just ask
[11:43] <iKernel> :)
[11:43] <papul> trud, ur problem?
[11:43] <beruic> iKernel: which?
[11:43] <trud> :)
[11:44] <iKernel> beruic, well, I suppose you could put find through a while loop.
[11:44] <papul> how do i use ddclient?
[11:45] <dreamflying> who has the driver of usb to serial ?
[11:45] <beruic> iKernel: Would rather find the scripts I need to edit in order to change the hdparm options
[11:45] <dreamflying> the chip of usb to serial is ch341a
[11:45] <trud> my problem is audio is not working :), well it's not muted I have tryied upgrading ALSA to x.21 doesn't work. I've tryied a lot of step-by-step guides
[11:45] <iKernel> beruic, make a directory called "dirty fix" in your home dir, put a few files the size of a few byes in there, cd to the dir and execute while true; do find .; done
[11:46] <iKernel> beruic, yes, but what happens if your hard drive screws up before you figure that out?
[11:46] <beruic> iKernel: Too dirty. Shouldn't happen too soon, just don't want it to wear out
[11:46] <trud> -> ubuntu can see hardware but none of sound...
[11:47] <LA-Snow> trud:  i've got an auzentech on my desktop.  ubuntu won't recognize that card and i just won't have sound in ubuntu, correct?
[11:48] <nariman_m> no one?? this is bugging me out! I've downloaded an old build (3.0) of virtualbox cuz I have issues with USB with the newest. I intall the deb, the setup confirms install complete. I go to appliocations system tools, nothing there! I run command "virtualbox" and terminal tells me that virtualbox is not currently installed!
[11:48] <Grunge> la-snow you can try googling drivers for it
[11:48] <Grunge> maybe there's a set that'll work
[11:48] <trud> well I have realtek audio card (on motherboard).... the sound is just not working
[11:49] <Grunge> trud i have realtek audio also
[11:49] <Grunge> mine works ifne
[11:49] <guntbert> nariman_m: its VirtualBox (case sensitive!)
[11:50] <trud> hmmm what kind of realtek do you have?
[11:50] <iKernel> beruic, have you tried find -f ?
[11:51] <nariman_m> guntbert: oh silly me
[11:52] <guntbert> nariman_m: :)
[11:52] <nariman_m> haha, this has been a pain in my ass for 3days
[11:52] <nariman_m> also, odd that it didn't create a shortcut
[11:52] <guntbert> nariman_m: applications/system tools ...
[11:53] <Xaero252> hey, is it possible to run a second X session on top of another as an "overlay" or "HUD"?
[11:53] <weinmann> i just deleted the /etc/samba folder if i reinstall samba it doesnt restore it so how to restore it?
[11:53] <nariman_m> guntbert: yupp, nothing there
[11:54] <bloodski> i have a problem with optical audio on my asus at3n7a-i mobo, i upgraded alsa to 1.0.21 and it still says no optical data on my logitech receiver, and there's no red light from the cable.. analogue audio works tho, any ideas? running ubuntu 9.04
[11:54] <Xaero252> or can I write to the Overlay "display" from the x11-overlay using bash or something?
[11:54] <guntbert> nariman_m: try to edit the menu - sometimes it just doesn't get enabled
[11:54] <nariman_m> it launcher was there before, then I upgraded to virtualbox 3.1, and had USB issues, removed 3.1 and did a downgrade to 3.0.X and now no icon :)
[11:55] <trud> bloodski I have audio problem too, everything seems "working" but non of sound....
[11:55] <LA-Snow> do you think we'll see better audio support for linux in the future?  it's a shame because i love music and have to use windows to get quality
[11:55] <madPJKfan> anyone know anything about the dreaded VERR_ACCESS_DENIED error in virtual box?
[11:56] <guntbert> nariman_m: you know there is a channel #vbox ?
[11:56] <comawhite_> LA-Snow: use alsa
[11:56] <comawhite_> I have great audio quality with it
[11:56] <nariman_m> guntbert: nope, but now I know. thanks for the help!
[11:56] <guntbert> madPJKfan: try #vbox

[11:56] <LA-Snow> comawhite_: what is alsa?
[11:57] <Rovanion> Or should I go to another channel?

[11:59] <Rovanion> om26er: #launchpad may help you on that topic
[12:00] <LA-Snow> does anyone know if an auzentech x-fi will work with linux using alsa?
[12:00] <Xaero252> weinmann: try doing a complete removal of samba and then reinstalling if "sudo dpkg-reconfigure samba"
[12:00] <Xaero252> LA-Snow: use the X-Fi Drivers for linux, and yes it will work
[12:00] <Xaero252> LA-Snow: at least it should
[12:00] <Xfact> anyone: can you tell me, where to download cool ubuntu logon screens....?
[12:00] <LA-Snow> Xaero252: interesting, i haven't been able to find any x-fi drivers for linux
[12:00] <weinmann> Xaero252 i removed it with --purge and still same if i try to use dpkg-reconfigure it says samba is broken
[12:00] <corecode> hey
[12:01] <Rovanion> Xfact: gnome-look.org
[12:01] <LA-Snow> Xaero252: on auzentech's site it doesn't support linux
[12:01] <corecode> i'm having a problem with my connected surround system
[12:01] <Xaero252> LA-Snow: http://opensource.creative.com/
[12:01] <corecode> i don't get any subwoofer signal until i go to sound preferences and switch the hardware configuration
[12:01] <Xfact> Rova...: thanks....
[12:01] <LA-Snow> Xaero252: thanks
[12:01] <LA-Snow> Xaero252: how does alsa relate to all of this?
[12:01] <corecode> then it works, but it is lost once rhythmbox opens a different file
[12:02] <Xaero252> LA-Snow, its a proprietary driver provided by creative, it should provide both Alsa and OSS compatibility for X-Fi chips, however, I'm not sure since yours is an Auzentech x-fi (uses an x-fi chip by creative) if the driver will control it properly, my X-Fi worked out of the box with 9.10
[12:02] <Xfact> anyone: What is actually 'artwork' for Ubuntu?
[12:03] <LA-Snow> Xaero252: your x-fi was a card made by creative?
[12:03] <kinja-sheep> weinmann: Try "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[12:03] <monokrome> hey
[12:03] <weinmann> kinja-sheep tyvm seems to work :o
[12:03] <monokrome> I encrypted my home folder, and I don't remember the password... How can I get it back?
[12:03] <Xaero252> LA-Snow: yes, however the X-Fi chip should be the same, the only differences would be the rest of the semiconductors and the actually audio inputs and outputs
[12:03] <kinja-sheep> weinmann: Welcome. :o
[12:04] <guntbert> monokrome: no way - sorry
[12:04] <Rovanion> I'm getting errors while gtk-despotify, can someone figure out what's wrong, if I'm missing some package: http://pastebin.org/70981
[12:04] <monokrome> guntbert: What kind of encryption does it use?
[12:04] <Xaero252> monokrome: RSA encryption iirc, on a lighter note, you may be able to brute force it with a few TB's worth of rainbow tables :D
[12:05] <LA-Snow> Xaero252: i think you're correct.  reason i went with auzentech is to avoid the bloatware drivers that creative has for windows
[12:06] <Xfact> anyone: Do you think using too many effects for desktop will slow down the performance level?
[12:06] <monokrome> Xaero252: How long would that take?
[12:06] <ah7013> has anyone got nouveau working on powerpc on karmic
[12:06] <psycho_oreos> Xfact, depends mostly on hardware specs and the load levels
[12:07] <monokrome> Xaero252: http://ocaoimh.ie/is-rsa-encryption-broken/
[12:07] <Xfact> psycho_oreos: and I think mainly depends on graphics card... well, thanks for suggestion :)
[12:08] <psycho_oreos> Xfact, not really but mostly that yes
[12:08] <guntbert> monokrome: please see http://www.linux-mag.com/cache/7568/1.html about the encryption technique
[12:08] <Tiders> How can I install Microsoft Office with Wine if I have no CD drive on my netbook
[12:08] <monokrome> ok. Thank you, guntbert.
[12:09] <Rovanion> Tiders: You use OpenOffice, or pirate MS office. Tough I don't see why you would want to do that
[12:09] <nariman_m> how do I unistall VMware?? I can't find it in synaptics and the command sudo vmware-uninstall.pl dosn't work
[12:09] <Jamed> Tiders: so ms office is on a CD?
[12:09] <monokrome> guntbert: Do you know if it's possible to encrypt an external drive in Ubuntu?
[12:10] <Tiders> Jamed, Yes
[12:10] <Xaero252> LA-Snow: Auzentech has put out a press release saying they won't be developing drivers for their X-Fi products, so just pray that the Creative driver works for your X-Fi chip, if not there was a thread here about a patch for the creative drivers: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/auzentech-x-fi-prelude-driver-drama-o-639709/
[12:10] <monokrome> guntbert: Never mind. I bet that's answered later in this article
[12:10] <Jamed> Tiders: try copying them on a usb stick on another pc and install from there
[12:11] <kinja-sheep> monokrome: You can encrypt anything.
[12:11] <monokrome> kinja-sheep: I mean, a drive that I already have data on
[12:12] <Tiders> What is that one command someone gave me yesterday to copy a CD to a .ISO file
[12:13] <kinja-sheep> monokrome: You'll have to move the data somewhere safely before you make a new encrypted partition.

[12:15] <Tiders> I donno there was just this one command to copy thte CD just using CLI
[12:16] <Tiders> kinja-sheep, This maybe? "sudo cat /dev/cdrom > ubuntu.iso"
[12:16] <kinja-sheep> Tiders: dd sounds familiar?
[12:16] <_du> Does anybody know how to change menu key for tightvnc?  With my surprise I saw no fsck being run on reboot. Is it normal?
[12:17] <corecode> the hardware config in sound preferences doesn't seem to work properly
[12:17] <corecode> anybody else having problems with surround sound?
[12:17] <kinja-sheep> Tiders: You know Brasero have the option to clone disc.
[12:17] <monokrome> deviad: fsck should only run if problems possibly existed at time of hard reboot, I think.
[12:18] <monokrome> I think it runs based on a journal check
[12:18] <deviad> I forgot that I'm using ext4, when I used ext3 I saw also a fsck running every  5 - 10 reboots..
[12:18] <deviad> .
[12:18] <deviad> so far I haven't seen fsck being run even once... that's weird to me
[12:18] <Tiders> Whats the best way to check disks for bad sectors?
[12:19] <monokrome> deviad: ext4 is probably better at handling this :)
[12:19] <Ctrl_Alt_Del> Tiders: smarmontools I would say

[12:20] <fosser> hello hackers, i am using ubuntu 9.04. i ust installed KompoZer. but it crashes after a min giving error segmentation fault. any patch or solution on this?
[12:21] <Rovanion> fosser: That is because the repos holds an old version
[12:21] <deviad> monokrome, I got worried because of some complaints about ext4 losing data
[12:21] <fosser> Rovanion: so if i installed latest version then problem will get solved?
[12:22] <monokrome> fosser: There is an article online that says they solved the problem by deleting their .komposer directory and restarting. I wouldn't recommend this, but moving it to something like .kompose.backup might be useful to test
[12:22] <Rovanion> fosser: I will not go into the stupidity of completely freezing the repos on launch of a distro. But rather provide you with this link that you may get a newer version: http://kompozer.net/download.php
[12:22] <Tiders> !iso
[12:22] <monokrome> deviad: If you are worried, I would advise that you manually run fsck
[12:22] <Rovanion> fosser: Yes, indeed
[12:22] <deviad> monokrome, but I need to start it from a livecd right?
[12:22] <monokrome> deviad: Yea.
[12:22] <pozzy> can someone help me....i recently got rid of windows because it was destroying my computer.
[12:22] <pozzy> it works better than i could have expected, my comp is running much faster BUT when loading a page on mozilla it takes a long time...says its looking the page up
[12:23] <pozzy> takes much longer than normal
[12:23] <monokrome> deviad: I think you can force an fsck on reboot with: shutdown -rF now
[12:23] <pozzy> i tried arora but it takes even longer
[12:23] <monokrome> Just read an article that said that anyway
[12:23] <Rovanion> pozzy: Try a different browser such as Arora and see if it occurs en that browser too.
[12:24] <DaZ> pozzy: maybe it's dns issue
[12:24] <corecode> god, this surround issue is driving me crazy

[12:25] <Xaero252> corecode: what kind of sound card do you have, and whats the issue?

[12:25] <monokrome> Same to you, fosser.
[12:25] <corecode> Xaero252: hda
[12:25] <Rovanion> fosser: Don't thank me, just come back some day and help someone yourself
[12:25] <Rovanion> Pay it forward and I'm all happy
[12:25] <fosser> yah sure
[12:25] <corecode> Xaero252: it is not doing proper surround until i go to sound properties and change the hardware config
[12:26] <Xaero252> corecode: is it not saving the settings for permanent use?
[12:26] <corecode> Xaero252: even though it remembers the hardware config, if playing a different song in rhythmbox, it won't be surround
[12:26] <corecode> Xaero252: so i have to select some other hardware config, like analog stereo, then it works.  then i can switch back to 5.1
[12:27] <corecode> Xaero252: happens for rhythmbox and totem
[12:27] <Xaero252> corecode: very strange... only rhythmbox and totem?
[12:28] <Rovanion> I'm getting errors while gtk-despotify, can someone figure out what's wrong, if I'm missing some package: http://pastebin.org/70981

[12:49] <bloodski> thx a lot Xaero252!!! you totally made my day!

[12:49] <corecode> :/
[12:49] <bloodski> :)
[12:50] <corecode> i wonder why so few other people seem to have this problem
[12:50] <Xaero252> corecode: gstreamer-properties
[12:50] <Xaero252> corecode: run that in a terminal, change the output to 5.1 there
[12:50] <Xaero252> corecode: if you have the option for it
[12:51] <corecode> i guess i select pulseaudio
[12:51] <xrfang> I am using 9.10, my X server often crash without any hint (basically I encounter this about twice a week). I would like to find out the problem or report the bug, but don't know how to check -- e.g. what is the log to check for etc. any hint? thanks
[12:51] <corecode> Xaero252: can't select 5.1
[12:51] <Xfact> BlouBlou: it's a boot splash screen, it should be installed via GDM....what it's mean?
[12:52] <BlouBlou> Xfact: Ah, boot splash, sorry, I undertood login splash
[12:52] <Xfact> no ideas about boot splash.....
[12:52] <corecode> oh now i botched my gstreamer
[12:53] <spacitymedic> Blou....
[12:53] <spacitymedic>  Its not working
[12:53] <spacitymedic>  HELP
[12:53] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: mhhh
[12:53] <spacitymedic> lol
[12:53]  * BlouBlou thinking
[12:54] <spacitymedic> i should also mention i am a noob
[12:54] <spacitymedic> so... if I sound dunb/.... I am
[12:54] <spacitymedic>  and i cant spell today.
[12:54] <Xaero252> corecode: try #rhythmbox on irc.gnome.org
[12:54] <Xaero252> corecode: I'm at a loss as to where you could get surroundsound support from rhythmbox O.o
[12:54] <spacitymedic> who me/?
[12:55] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: Have you got another operative system installed, or a live cd? Oly for be sure that your sound problem is (x)ubuntu configuration and not hardware fail
[12:55] <corecode> Xaero252: well, upmix
[12:55] <corecode> Xaero252: i.e. use my subwoofer
[12:55] <spacitymedic> I have a live cd
[12:55] <ibm43> i want to install my asus eee pc 701 easypeasy
[12:55] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: Does sound work with it?
[12:55] <ibm43>  but get error
[12:55] <corecode> Xaero252: it is a stereo signal, but of course it should use my subwoofer
[12:56] <ibm43>  the ext3 file system creation in partition #5 of SCSI3 (0,0,0) (sdb) failed
[12:56] <spacitymedic> but thsi  was al working fine before i reinstalled xububtu after getting rid of kububtu
[12:56] <spacitymedic> it DID
[12:56] <doneill> corecode: are you using pulseaudio?
[12:56] <spacitymedic> i dunno
[12:56] <spacitymedic> hang on. i have to make a phone call... back in a few
[12:56] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: Okay
[12:56] <Ch3xO> yo
[12:56] <Ch3xO> yo yo.
[12:56] <BlouBlou> !hi | Ch3xO
[12:57] <Xaero252> doneill: he only has surround issues with one application
[12:57] <corecode> doneill: yes, the default
[12:57] <Nootilus> hello I need a little help with ppas
[12:57] <corecode> Xaero252: i guess with all that use pulseaudio
[12:57] <doneill> Xaero252: sure, i just look for an excuse to blame pulseaudio.
[12:57] <spacitymedic> Ok.. i mback
[12:57] <spacitymedic>  so.... wlak me through it. what do I do?
[12:57] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: Have you installed anything before you get this error?
[12:58] <Narc> Hey folks, Happy New Year to all of you
[12:58] <doneill> what, again?  but we just had that...
[12:58] <spacitymedic> ok under preferences for hardware... what do I select
[12:58] <spacitymedic> i am not getting any error messages
[12:59] <spacitymedic> i downloaded some apps from the app adder thing
[12:59] <Nootilus> I'm trying to download conkyforecast but I can't understand how to authentify the source
[12:59] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: But have you got corrupt sound or simply not sound?
[12:59] <Xaero252> corecode: try changing from "Autodetect" to PulseAudio in gstreamer-properties... see if that fixes the sound issue in rhythmbox
[12:59] <spacitymedic> yeah just no sound
[13:00] <spacitymedic> ok I have selected pulse audio
[13:00] <spacitymedic> err wait
[13:00] <spacitymedic>  no...
[13:00] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: It's recommendabe stay it in automatic
[13:00] <jatt> I'm watching a movie. Stupid screensaver kicks in every 5 minutes. Is there a way to tell the screensaver to don't do that? (different than disabling it everytime I watch a movie).
[13:00] <spacitymedic> where do I select automatic
[13:00] <doneill> jatt: what are you playing the movie with?
[13:00] <Xaero252> Spacitymedic: that wasnt meant for you, it was meant for corecode to test out for rhythmbox
[13:01] <jatt> Flash movie (www.ted.com).
[13:01] <Nootilus> no one can help me?
[13:01] <BlouBlou> jatt: Move mouse every 4 minutes
[13:01] <jatt> ha
[13:01] <Xaero252> Nootilus: register an account with weather.com's xml service like it says in the directions
[13:01] <doneill> jatt: yeah, not really, since a flash applet doesn't talk to the power saver part of the PC..
[13:01] <jatt> I see.
[13:01] <spacitymedic> ok... i have under output: internal audio digital stereo (iec958) OR rs780 azalia controller digital stereo (hdmi)
[13:01] <Narc> I really need someone's help or opinion : Since I updated Karmic a week ago, my left click is not functioning properly anymore, it becomes unresponsive depending on which program I open, I can't click links or buttons, focus windows or anything. Mouse is fine, working on Windows, and xev is not detecting any event from the mouse. Thanks a lot.
[13:01] <doneill> jatt: but that isn't a linux thing, that's windows, mac, etc.
[13:01] <spacitymedic>  which do I choose
[13:01] <Xaero252> Nootilus: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=869328
[13:02] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: I'll check mine, one sec
[13:02] <corecode> Xaero252: fixed it!
[13:02] <kinja-sheep> jatt: Try "Inhibit Applet" -- Allows user to inhibit automatic power saving.
[13:02] <spacitymedic> tell me what i sunder each of ytour tabs'
[13:02] <spacitymedic>  pleeease
[13:02] <Nootilus> Xaero252, I'm not at this step, I just try to download the conkyforecast from http://ppa.launchpad.net/m-buck/ubuntu

[13:02] <doneill> kinja-sheep: nice idea
[13:02] <Xaero252> corecode: glad to hear it! hopefully that doesnt break any other gstreamer functionality
[13:02] <corecode> Xaero252: yep
[13:02] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: output tab
[13:02] <Nootilus> I added the deb line but I can't authentify
[13:03] <corecode> Xaero252: i wonder how to get this to developers' attention
[13:03] <spacitymedic> ok
[13:03] <corecode> oh now my volume mixer is gone?
[13:03] <corecode> how sad
[13:03] <Xaero252> corecode: file a bug on launchpad, and suggest a fix with it
[13:03] <Xaero252> corecode: just relaunch it
[13:03] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: Can you make a screenshoot and submit it please? Just for see wich configs have you got there
[13:03] <BlouBlou> !paste | spacitymedic
[13:03] <spacitymedic> ok.. blou s there a way to share desktop??
[13:03] <spacitymedic>  yeah hang on
[13:03] <corecode> hm, doesn't work :/
[13:03] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: Yes, it is, via local network or with different users?
[13:04] <spacitymedic> i am using home internet
[13:04] <spacitymedic> i ahve cablelynx
[13:05] <Narc> Anyone else experienced an almost non-functioning left-click after updating Karmic these days ?
[13:05] <spacitymedic> i dunno
[13:05] <spacitymedic>  i have vable internet... a wireless router... and Im the only computer on it.
[13:05] <spacitymedic>  well... my neighbor has a mag
[13:05] <spacitymedic>  mac... and he uses it but no one else
[13:05] <doneill> Narc: not me, but it could be related to your input method.
[13:06] <doneill> Narc: what driver is your pointer device using in /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[13:06] <madura> Narc, im not sure about it but look at the compiz settings if you have it enabled
[13:06] <Xaero252> corecode: gnome-volume-control doesnt work?
[13:06] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: So you want use your neighbors wifi?
[13:06] <Narc> doneill: I'm gonna check this, wait a seconde, thanks
[13:06] <Guest72188> john
[13:06] <spacitymedic> lol nooo
[13:07] <spacitymedic>  I am letting my neighbor use MY signal
[13:07] <Guest72188> joined
[13:07] <Narc> madura: I disabled it, I thought it was Compiz and Gnome-Do's fault, but even with effects disabled, it's still doing it
[13:07] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: ah
[13:07] <spacitymedic>  is there a way I can share my desktop with you, so you can see what I see?
[13:07] <spacitymedic> that was my question
[13:07] <spacitymedic> you know, to give you control so you can fix this?
[13:07] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: Yes, it is, but is needed open ports etc etc...
[13:07] <spacitymedic> Ok... so... tell me how to do it?
[13:07] <Xaero252> BlouBlou: not if his router has uPnP
[13:08] <Xaero252> and i would take that to PMs so that anybody harmful lurking in the channel cant access his VNC
[13:08] <BlouBlou> Xaero252: I'm via router and I'll need to forward ports
[13:08] <BlouBlou> Xaero252: Right
[13:08] <BlouBlou> spacitymedic: Private
[13:08] <Xaero252> BlouBloud: you dont need to forward ports to connect, just to serve
[13:08] <Xaero252> *BlouBlou
[13:09] <Narc> doneill: Driver entry says "mouse"....
[13:10] <Xaero252> BlouBlou: make sure he checks the Configure Network to Automatically accept connections box
[13:10] <meway> Hello my wine is not working can someone help me get it to work correctly?
[13:10] <doneill> narc: good old... "mouse" driver.
[13:10] <doneill> narc: you sure?
[13:10] <Xaero252> meway: whats your issue with wine?
[13:10] <meway> well I downloaded some packets and it uninstalled itself
[13:11] <meway> or it seems that way
[13:11] <doneill> "it takes naps and facebooks all day and won't get to work" :D
[13:11] <meway> Xaero252: any idea of why it may have done that?
[13:11] <Pici> !doesntwork
[13:11] <Narc> doneill: Yes, sure. Plus, it worked fine since I installed Karmic, and on Jaunty too. But suddenly, last time I updated, I almost lost my left click.
[13:11] <Narc> It's all capricious now
[13:12] <doneill> Narc: do you have a Protocol and Device option set?
[13:12] <Narc> doneill: Ya, Protocol is set on "auto" and Device on "/dev/psaux"
[13:12] <Xaero252> meway: what exactly is it doing/not doing, does typing in wine on the terminal print usage remarks for wine? does typing winecfg bring up the wine configuration, could you have possibly installed a package dependant on the "wine" package and had the wine1.2 package installed and had your previous wine install get overwritten?
[13:13] <ope> I started my X11 using startx and run ratpoison as WM (for my thtv box). Anyway, If I put a USB stick into it's not mounted. Isn't mount done by hal???
[13:13] <meway> Xaero252:  I try to reinstall it and I get the following error
[13:13] <doneill> Narc: so it is a PS2 mouse?
[13:13] <meway> Xaero252:  Package dependencies cannot be resolved
[13:13] <commodoor> #pdo
[13:13] <meway> Xaero252:  This error could be caused by required additional software packages which are missing or not installable. Futhermore there could be a conflict between software packages which are not allowed to be installed at the same time.
[13:13] <Narc> doneill: No, it's a wireless USB trackball.
[13:13] <xiong> All kinds of things broke for me on the Karmic upgrade but I've decided not to blame the devs. I haven't been keeping good notes along the way, as I've been installing and customizing stuff; I haven't been making proper backups. So it's not clear, even to me, where my system was *before* the upgrade; it's no surprise that I'm having trouble with stuff now.
[13:14] <doneill> Narc: .. well there's yer prollum
[13:14] <doneill> Narc: try setting the device to /dev/input/mice
[13:14] <diddy> I have a strange problem on Ubuntu 9.10. Whenever I minimize Windows under Gnome the Window disappears. It is not minimized to the panel but is gone. What could be wrong and how can I fix it?
[13:14] <doneill> Narc: also, i've had best experience using evdev lately
[13:14] <corecode> Xaero252: nope, not fixed
[13:14] <corecode> Xaero252: dunno why it worked
[13:14] <Narc> doneill: Oh, I see. I'm gonna do this and restart X, right ?
[13:14] <meway> Xaero252: The problem just occured after looking threw a forum to get my DVD's to work with vlc media player
[13:15] <corecode> Xaero252: i think i broke pulseaudio, so gstreamer used alsa directly
[13:15] <Narc> doneill: But why did it worked fine before then ?
[13:15] <doneill> Narc: you don't have to
[13:15] <doneill> Narc: in a terminal run: xsetpointer /dev/input/mice
[13:15] <Xaero252> corecode: undo what you did O.o
[13:15] <corecode> Xaero252: yea
[13:15] <doneill> Narc: i have no idea, but /dev/psaux is for ps2 mice.
[13:15] <petsounds> diddy, make sure that window selector is available on gnome panel.
[13:16] <corecode> Xaero252: now i have sound + volume, but again no subwoofer
[13:16] <doneill> Narc: just because the horse drove the truck once doesn't mean it made any sense.
[13:16] <diddy> petsounds, how?
[13:16] <Xaero252> corecode: but audio from all 5 speakers?
[13:16] <Narc> doneill: Haha, true
[13:16] <l4ng1t> anyone knows software remote desktop through NAT?
[13:16] <corecode> Xaero252: no
[13:16] <Xaero252> meway: I'm not certain but you must have installed a package that requires something that conflicts with a package wine requires
[13:16] <doneill> Narc: "xsetpointer -l" should list valid devices for xinput too
[13:16] <meway> Xaero252:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[13:17] <Xaero252> corecode: so we are back to square one?
[13:17] <corecode> Xaero252: indeed
[13:17] <corecode> Xaero252: well it seems to be a pulseaudio issue
[13:17] <Narc> doneill: Ok, I'll try it then, thanks a lot
[13:17] <doneill> corecode: i'd purge pulseaudio
[13:17] <corecode> i'd rather fix it
[13:18] <doneill> corecode: what do you use pulseaudio for?
[13:18] <corecode> i have no idea
[13:18] <Narc> doneill: I'm gonna reboot and see if it works.
[13:18] <doneill> me either..
[13:18] <corecode> does alsa mix several sound channels?
[13:18] <doneill> corecode: yep.
[13:18] <Xaero252> doneill: I use pulse audio because alsa fails at mixing imho
[13:18] <doneill> corecode: in and out
[13:19] <doneill> Xaero252: pulse audio fails and .. doing.. any.. audio
[13:19] <Xaero252> doneill: and it also won't let a game "lock" the audio device *cough* Stepmania's horrible codebase *cough*
[13:19] <doneill> s/and/at/
[13:19] <petsounds> diddy, you can add the Window Selector if you want.
[13:20] <doneill> the only good thing about pulseaudio is that it isn't *quite* as invasive on my PC as avahi.
[13:20] <Xaero252> I need sleep ><
[13:20] <meway> Xaero252:  wait i think this is what did it sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2
[13:20] <doneill> but from where i come from, adding steps to debugging, configuration, and management, is NOT the best way to 'make my life easier', which both pulseaudio and avahi do, with zero benefit to me even when they are working properly.
[13:21] <Xaero252> I wonder... !sleep
[13:21] <meway> Xaero252: how do i get rid of sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2
[13:21] <Xaero252> meway: type libdvdcss2 in the search box on synaptic
[13:21] <meway> Xaero252: command to uninstall? don't care if it breaks vlc dvd's
[13:21] <meway> Xaero252 :( k
[13:22] <Xaero252> meway or you can do it via command line sudo apt-get remove libdvdcss2
[13:22] <meway> kk
[13:22] <Xaero252> I'm going to bed now though, I need some sleep
[13:23] <Xaero252> gnight
[13:23] <diddy> petsound, you mean without it I would experience the problems that I see?
[13:23] <meway> Xaero252 nope same error I will have to look into more :(
[13:23] <meway> Xaero252 gtg thanks for trying :)
[13:24] <meway> Xaero252 well actually you know any program that will get my ipod to work without wine?
[13:24] <Narc> doneill: Thanks for your help, but it doesn't work. Left click's dead again.
[13:24] <diddy> petsound, I think that worked. You rock! Thx
[13:24] <meway> anyone know of a program that will get my ipod to work?
[13:25] <diddy> petsounds, I think that worked. You rock! Thx
[13:25] <meway> nvm later
[13:25] <doneill> Narc: that's pretty bizarre
[13:25] <doneill> Narc: do your other USB devices work properly?
[13:25] <Narc> doneill: I'm used to bizarre bugs
[13:25] <Narc> doneill: Yes, I think so
[13:25] <petsounds> diddy, np :-)
[13:27] <Narc> doneill: The keyboard is PS2 so I can't tell, but the webcam and stuff works fine
[13:30] <Narc> doneill: I read about HAL messing up the mouse ans keyboard but it doesn't look like it. The Alt-Tab combo doesn't work either.
[13:31] <doneill> Narc: well, alt tab doesn't work reliably for me either with compiz on
[13:31] <Narc> doneill: Oh, ok. But the strange thing is that it doesn't work even with Compiz off I think.
[13:32] <doneill> Narc: i'm starting to think something isn't working properly with your PC, peripherals, or software, but that is merely a hunch.
[13:32] <doneill> unfortunately without physically sitting down at your terminal and fiddling with it, i don't think i can come up with any suggestions.
[13:33] <doneill> have you tried surfing ubuntu forums for similar issues?
[13:33] <brianherman> meway: what generation ipod
[13:33] <Narc> doneill: Yes, and the only people who experienced it are laptop users or beta testers
[13:34] <doneill> well, your input device isn't much different from a laptop trackball, how did they fix it?
[13:35] <Narc> doneill: I thought it was update related 'cause it happened right after I updated, but can be a coincidence
[13:35] <Narc> doneill: They didn't.
[13:35] <doneill> oh i imagine it is an update issue
[13:35] <Narc> doneill: They waited for a fix to come up.
[13:35] <doneill> as a last ditch effort, you could move your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old and restart X
[13:35] <ondra> hi
[13:36] <doneill> that would force it to reconfigure
[13:36] <doneill> but unfortunately it's 6:35am here and i should get to bed, i have work in a couple hours
[13:36] <doneill> best of luck
[13:36] <Narc> doneill: Thanks a lot

[13:59] <kinja-sheep> ondra: I'm checking the forums, did you try unplugging and plug it again?
[13:59] <ryker> kinja-sheep: I saw a 12.x version available for Jaunty on the packages site.  I'm fairly new to ubuntu.  Is there usually any issue with grabbing an old package from Jaunty and using it on Karmic?
[13:59] <ondra> kinja-sheep, yep
[14:00] <kinja-sheep> ondra: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports#Installing%20a%20single%20package
[14:01] <kinja-sheep> ondra: For a single package, you should be okay.
[14:01] <srv_> i want to use yahoo messenger with encryption in ubuntu which software i need to install
[14:01] <TABASCO> OerHeks: Thanks, I'll check that out. I only had the instruction, translated from the French forum. Hope that can help me out :)
[14:01] <kite> what setting is needed to record the audio/mp3/any video's audio playing in ubuntu through sound recorder
[14:02] <ondra> kinja-sheep, thx, I will let you know :)
[14:02] <despen> I have a problem when I try to install a fresh system (9.10 64bit server) After the installation I get a grub error.. error: no such partition. I have used guided partioning (lvm with ext4 no encryption). Any Ideas?
[14:03] <ondra> kinja-sheep, I somehow miss the part which single package I should install
[14:03] <kinja-sheep> ondra: What package is it that you're looking for?
[14:04] <LucidPerry> despen: Do you happen to have multiple drives hooked up to the server?
[14:04] <ryker> kinja-sheep: I think your backports url you posted to ondra helped me with waht I needed too.  thx
[14:04] <kinja-sheep> ryker: "lsmod | grep rt" turn up anything?
[14:04] <despen> LucidPerry: Nope, single sata drive and one ata dvdrom
[14:04] <kinja-sheep> ryker: You could enable the backport kernel if that will help your wifi issues.
[14:05] <ondra> kinja-sheep, I dont think I there is a package solving my problem with EW-7711 driver
[14:05] <LucidPerry> despen: Then I have no idea; sorry!
[14:05] <ryker> kinja-sheep: i think you're mixing me up with ondra.  I'm the old erlang version guy
[14:05] <ryker> :)
[14:05] <kinja-sheep> ryker: Oh that link was for you.
[14:05] <kinja-sheep> ryker: I got two users backward.
[14:05] <kinja-sheep> ondra: You might want to try backport kernel.
[14:06] <SuperRoach> Hello there. I'm using 9.10 on my netbook, and was wondering if anyone knows of a mp3 software for ipods that works well? Banshee seems to read but not sync, amarok not at all. I'd love podcast syncing ideally.
[14:06] <Dr_Willis> !ipod
[14:06] <ondra> ondra, yes, that should solve the problem, hence the device works fine in jaunty and karmic, how to "backport the kernel"
[14:07] <mkanyicy> SuperRoach, rhythmbox works well, i am suprised that amarok is not working
[14:07] <kinja-sheep> ondra: By installing "linux-backports-modules-karmic"
[14:08] <Milp> Is there any way for me to find out why my server has multiple instances of sshd running instead of one?
[14:08] <ondra> kinja-sheep, whoa, doesnt that mess system a bit?
[14:08] <kinja-sheep> !kernel | ondra
[14:09] <kinja-sheep> ondra: Read the first statement.
[14:09] <kinja-sheep> ondra: By installing it, you're using backport kernels which may contains more supports for your hardwares.
[14:10] <ondra> kinja-sheep, ok, I will give it a try
[14:10] <kinja-sheep> ondra: Many users have came in with weird occasional wireless problems (irony, just like you) and enabling the backport kernel often did the trick for them.  Okay. :)
[14:11] <srv_> anyone using yahoo messenger with encryption?
[14:12] <APERSON> !anyone
[14:12] <Signal360> haha, 1337 users.
[14:12] <Rascal999> I'm trying to tsocks konqueror but it fails. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10
[14:13] <Milp> Is there any way for me to find out why my server has multiple instances of sshd running instead of one?
[14:13] <srv_> APERSON: i want to use yahoo messenger using encryption
[14:14] <gdb> Milp: That's by design.  You have one running that's the master that's listening for connections.  Every connection made forks off another copy with a lowered privilege.  It's a security feature of openssh.
[14:15] <MindSpark> how do I find out if the cpu is 32 or 64 bit ?
[14:15] <LucidPerry> MindSpark: If you're on Ubuntu, in terminal, type "sudo lscpu"
[14:15] <bertalan> sziasztok
[14:15] <Milp> gdb: But i only have one open connection to it at the moment, there are like 6 running though
[14:16] <Andycaps> Can i use older gcc to build a package? The gcc-4.4 gives me errors on make
[14:16] <MindSpark> LucidPerry, ok, and which field  says about 32/64 ?
[14:17] <LucidPerry> MindSpark: It should say "Architecture:" and then x86 or x86-64. But actually I'd recommend running less /proc/cpuinfo instead. It's more detailed.
[14:17] <gdb> Milp: Ah, that I don't know then.  Do you have any other ssh connections open using something other than ssh?  (ie; sftp, scp, etc?)
[14:17] <MindSpark> LucidPerry, that's what I did at first, but nothing really says that
[14:17] <LucidPerry> MindSpark: Well, what does it say for "model name"?
[14:18] <MindSpark> LucidPerry, Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz
[14:19] <LucidPerry> MindSpark: P4s came in both 32 and 64bit. So...back to lscpu. If you got "x86" for Architecture, it's 32bit. If you got x86-64, it's 64bit.
[14:19] <Dr_Willis> what? Intel dosent call it AMD64? :)
[14:20] <mkanyicy> MindSpark, "sudo lshw -C cpu" and the check the width field
[14:20] <bitplane> Hi, my mouse is having problems and I was wondering if there's such a thing as button dampening
[14:20] <LucidPerry> mkanyicy: Why does lscpu and lshw -c cpu generate different data?
[14:21] <MindSpark> LucidPerry, ok, thanks, I think I got it with mkanyicy's command
[14:21] <mkanyicy> LucidPerry, I don't know, I don't even have lscpu
[14:21] <bitplane> the left button is clicking erratically, sometimes it double clicks when I'm dragging or clicking a close button etc
[14:21] <LucidPerry> mkanyicy: Huh. I'll look into it.
[14:21] <Halvor> I have just installed ubuntu 8.0.4 for the first time (first Liinux installation also) and I have had a couple of failed attempts at installing addition software or plugins. Everything seems to install correctly and I close the installer window, but the apps aren't activated somehow. Do I need to reboot or something?
[14:21] <MindSpark> mkanyicy, shows 64 bit, but this doesn't mean I am using 64 bit ubuntu, right ?
[14:21] <LucidPerry> MindSpark: Sorry that I'm useless. I'm new to Linux as well :P
[14:21] <ondra> kinja-sheep, ghrf I have downloaded linux-backports-modules-karmic-generic_<IP_ADDRESS>.30_i386.deb and my system cannost satisfy its dependencies
[14:22] <MindSpark> LucidPerry, I am not new to Linux, just never used a 64 bit computer :P
[14:22] <kinja-sheep> ondra: Don't download it. Do it in the terminal.
[14:22] <LucidPerry> MindSpark: My mistake : (
[14:22] <MindSpark> LucidPerry, thanks though :)
[14:22] <LucidPerry> MindSpark: Just do uname -a to see if you're running 64bit or 32bit :P
[14:22] <kinja-sheep> ondra: "aptitude search linux-backports-modules" -- You get something?
[14:22] <Dr_Willis> bitplane:  try a new mouse?
[14:22] <kinja-sheep> !pastebin | ondra
[14:22] <bitplane> Halvor, define "failed attempts"?
[14:23] <MindSpark> Linux hakim 2.6.31-16-generic #53-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 8 04:01:29 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
[14:23] <bitplane> Dr_Willis, I will do eventually, but it would be cool if I could filter it in software like I was a special needs user or something
[14:23] <MindSpark> 32 or 64 ?
[14:23] <Halvor> bitplane: Well, the apps don't run and apparently aren't installed even though I ran the installer with no error messages
[14:23] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[14:23] <kinja-sheep> MindSpark: 48 :)
[14:23] <ZykoticK9> MindSpark, i686 = 32bit
[14:23] <Dr_Willis> bitplane:  i recall some 'detect accidental double clicks; setting somewhere in some os's but Nio idea where i even saw it at
[14:24] <ondra> kinja-sheep, well I get plenty of packages
[14:24] <MindSpark> ZykoticK9, ok, thanks :)
[14:24] <Signal360> what's netsplitting?
[14:24] <Tai> help i got a virus :C
[14:24] <kinja-sheep> ondra: Can you pastebin it?
[14:24] <zaggynl> !netsplit | Signal360
[14:24] <ondra> kinja-sheep, http://pastebin.org/71016
[14:24] <Signal360> i know what a netsplit is :P
[14:24] <zaggynl> it's when irc servers break up and the kids are left in the middle
[14:25] <mkanyicy> MindSpark, this may be helpful as well "sudo lshw -html > this.html && firefox this.html && rm -f this.html"
[14:25] <kinja-sheep> ondra: You want linux-backports-modules-hardy.  Do this --> "sudo aptitude install linux-backports-modules-hardy"
[14:25] <Halvor> bitplane: Did you get my answer?
[14:25] <Dr_Willis> zaggynl:  so sad.... :)
[14:25] <zaggynl> ya
[14:25] <bitplane> Halvor, yes thanks
[14:25] <bitplane> I guess that will be X11 settings, nothing to do with the GNOME front-end?
[14:26] <Halvor> bitplane: I don't know what that means..
[14:26] <MindSpark> mkanyicy, I think it's on 32 bit, but come to think about it, should I switch to 64 ? I heard it has lots of problems still
[14:27] <kinja-sheep> MindSpark: Life have lot of ups and downs too.
[14:27] <mkanyicy> MindSpark, I never used 64 bit before, so I am clueless in that field
[14:27] <bitplane> Halvor, GNOME is the desktop environment I use (windowing system client). X11 deals with the input drivers and windowing server. At least that's how I understand it anyway
[14:27] <Tai> how do i clean my ubuntu system of viruses?
[14:27] <MindSpark> kinja-sheep, what are the downs of this one ? :)
[14:28] <tia> hmmph
[14:28] <kinja-sheep> MindSpark: You?
[14:28] <lowki> my touchpad doesn't work
[14:28] <Halvor> bitplane: But I don't understand how that relates to my question. Does it relate to my question?
[14:28] <tia> so??
[14:28] <LeperQuorn> Tai: Viruses? What viruses?
[14:28] <bitplane> oh, sorry
[14:28] <lowki> syndaemon says unable to find synaptics device
[14:28] <lucas_> minha web cam não funciona
[14:28] <biznock09> im having problems deleting items from my trash any advice
[14:28] <bitplane> I thought you were someone else! I was surfing too many windows at once!
[14:28] <bastidrazor> Tai: sudo apt-get install clamav clamtk  .. once done run clamtk
[14:28] <haresh> whcih ftp clitnes is good for unbentu
[14:28] <lowki> what's going on? my touchpad worked on the previous ubuntu version
[14:28] <tia> hy every body...
[14:29] <scunizi> MindSpark: I installed kubuntu 64 in a multi boot machine yesterday and all seems smooth so far.. installed kubuntu-restricted-extras which has flash etc.. still tuning but looks good
[14:29] <Halvor> bitplane:  OK, maybe I should pose my question again
[14:29] <ondra> kinja-sheep, I've got it installed, but that god damn thing is still not working
[14:29] <lowki> biznock09: use rm
[14:29] <bitplane> Halvor, go to a command line and try running one of the apps from there
[14:29] <lucas_> LG X110 WEBCAM NOT
[14:29] <kinja-sheep> bastidrazor: That only scan for viruses, correct?  Not eliminating.
[14:29] <biznock09> hwo
[14:29] <biznock09> lowki
[14:29] <bitplane> or see if/where it's installed by tying "which programname"
[14:29] <biznock09> lowki, how
[14:29] <bastidrazor> kinja-sheep: you have the option to delete the file.
[14:29] <kinja-sheep> ondra: Did you reboot?
[14:29] <agus> where can I get ubuntu 7.04 repo?
[14:29] <kinja-sheep> bastidrazor: That is too true. :)
[14:30] <MindSpark> scunizi, does lampp run well ?
[14:30] <scunizi> agus: it's end of life and the repos have been archived.. not accessable.. time to upgrade
[14:30] <biznock09> what is the terminal address for the trash?
[14:30] <scunizi> MindSpark: lamp will run on most anything..
[14:30] <lowki> biznock09: can use shift+del in browser
[14:30] <rj1> Hai guys, Ubuntu keeps logging me off!
[14:30] <bastidrazor> !trash | biznock09
[14:31] <MindSpark> rj1, delete the config directory
[14:31] <ondra> kinja-sheep, nope, mmt :)
[14:31] <JediMaster> Is there anything wrong with setting chmod 600 /etc/fstab as I'm having to hard-code passwords for samba shares into the fstab, and would rather that the web server didn't have read access to it
[14:31] <lucas_> MINHA  WEBCAM NÃO FUNCIONA O MEU NOTEBOOK É O LG X110  L.B7BLP1
[14:31] <lucas_> ME AJUDEM
[14:31] <Pici> !br | lucas_
[14:31] <lucas_> MEU EMAIL<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[14:31] <MindSpark> rj1, actually, try the .cache directory first
[14:31] <agus> I need 7.04 because of that kernel
[14:32] <agus> what version of ubuntu that use 2.6.18?
[14:32] <biznock09> ubottu, im in the dr now what should i do
[14:32] <biznock09> ?
[14:32] <Tai> bastidrazor, its not scanning files!!!
[14:32] <rj1> .....
[14:32] <MindSpark> hahaha
[14:32] <lowki> is there any way of downgrading?
[14:32] <Dr_Willis> agus:  once the relseases get so old - the repos move to some  archive/old-releease server
[14:32] <lowki> cause my mouse worked on 9.04
[14:32] <bastidrazor> Tai: you need to tell it what to scan. click Home
[14:32] <lowki> and i like it when it works
[14:32] <lucas_> não entendi
[14:32] <scunizi> agus: doesn't change the situation.. 6.06, 8.04 and the upcoming 10.04 are/will be LTS releases.. supported for 3 years on the desktop and 5 yrs on the server.. all other releases are supported for 18 months then they are gone.
[14:33] <Dr_Willis> agus:  it would be odd that some gizmo would work ONLY with that older kernel
[14:33] <Milp> Hey uuh, i installed webalizer but now i have no idea where it is running or anything. How would i go about accessing it?
[14:33] <lucas_> onde fica esse ubuntu br
[14:33] <Pici> lucas_: /join #ubuntu-br
[14:33] <Dr_Willis> agus:  any such problem would be worth a bug report.
[14:33] <biznock09> lowki, shift+del didnt work i get an error saying cant delete
[14:33] <Tai> thanks bastidrazor
[14:33] <kishore> Hi all
[14:33] <kishore> i have a problem regarding sites
[14:33] <lucas_> isso é um codigo pici
[14:33] <kishore> some of the sites are not opening in my system
[14:34] <lucas_> sou novato
[14:34] <kishore> can u tell me how to solve the problem
[14:34] <lucas_> pici
[14:34] <Halvor> bitplane: One of the packages is "Adobe Flash Player plugin version 10". How do I check if that is installed? I don't know what programname to use for that in "which programname".
[14:34] <lowki> biznock09: in terminal do:   cd ~/.local/share/Trash
[14:34] <lowki> then: rm *
[14:34] <Pici> Lucas_: Por favor escreva isso aqui.
[14:34] <lucas_>  /join #ubuntu-br
[14:34] <lowki> or sudo rm *
[14:34] <bitplane> Halvor, I think that's a plugin for Firefox
[14:34] <lucas_> escrevi
[14:34] <Halvor> bitplane: Right
[14:35] <agus> actually I installed ubuntu 7.04 because I want to use pc station that support 7.04 only
[14:35] <biznock09> lowki, cd ~/.local/share/Trash
 then: rm *
[14:35] <lowki> ya
[14:35] <scunizi> agus: pc station?  what's that.. do you have  a link?
[14:35] <biznock09> lowki, bash no such dr exists
[14:35] <lucas_>  /join #ubuntu-br
[14:35] <lowki> wht ubuntu version?
[14:36] <agus> hardware like ncomputing (ncomputing.com)
[14:36] <kishore> plzz tell me
[14:36] <Halvor> bitplane: I also installed NTP support to automatically set the system clock, but that too doesn't appear to have been isntalled properly.
[14:36] <Pici> Lucas_: sem o espaço em frente
[14:37] <bitplane> Halvor, the ntp daemon might need restarting after installing it. a reboot will do this, I can't remember how I did it on my remote server but there were instructions on some website
[14:37] <Dr_Willis> agus:  well tjhe older releases are still avail. but the repos have all been moved to some less used archive server. and you basically are on your own with any support issues with them. You would need to edit your sources.list to point to the right server
[14:37] <biznock09> lowki 8.04
[14:37] <Halvor> bitplane: I'll try a restart. Maybe both will work after that.
[14:37] <bitplane> Halvor, on 9.10 the flash player is in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
[14:37] <scunizi> Dr_Willis: agus is looking to do a multi-station from one pc.. Lisp? Ltsp? I forgot what they call it.. but one pc with multiple monitors keyboards mice etc.. used a lot in the educational environment.
[14:38] <ondra> kinja-sheep, it seems like backports did not help
[14:38] <bitplane> try "killall firefox" from a command line and restart firefox afterwards
[14:38] <kinja-sheep> ondra: Oh noes.
[14:38] <lowki> biznock09: cd ~/.Trash
[14:38] <mbeierl> Anyone know of a legal video player that can play the "digital copy" cds that come with some dvds?  I have the original cd and its decryption key, just no way to play it... :(
[14:38] <Dr_Willis> scunizi:  thers another way to do it also.. that is more up to date.. its free for 2 stations - charges for more.
[14:39] <scunizi> Dr_Willis: oh?  got a link?
[14:39] <Halvor> bitplane: Appreciate the help so far. Hopefully I won't be back immediately afterwards...
[14:39] <bitplane> mbeierl, it's defective by design I'm afraid. I doubt you'll find a legal player
[14:39] <kinja-sheep> ondra: "sudo lshw -c network" --- Pastebinit, plz.
[14:40] <kinja-sheep> ondra: I'll try and find you a solution.
[14:40] <agus> btw, what old version of ubuntu that the repo still available?
[14:40] <mbeierl> Ah.  I see - better to "make a backup copy of the dvd" than attempt to legally play what I own.  Yep.  Defective by design
[14:40] <klown> anyone else have an issue with pastebinit posting the wrong url?
[14:40] <klown> last night it happened to me twice.
[14:40] <ondra> kinja-sheep, it writer sort of help...
[14:40] <biznock09> lowki, bash no dr
[14:40] <mbeierl> bitplane: sorry - ^
[14:40] <coder> mmm, it seems impossible to install 9.10 desktop x64 on softraid
[14:40] <Dr_Willis> scunizi:  the trick is to rember to google for 'MultiSEAT' :)
[14:40] <Dr_Willis> scunizi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultiseatX

[14:42] <biznock09> lowki, do you know how to just reformat from the recovery partition
[14:42] <Dr_Willis> bye all bbl
[14:42] <biznock09> right right
[14:42] <lowki> biznock09: you can from the installation cd
[14:43] <lowki> but if you really want to get rid of it can do shred
[14:43] <biznock09> lowki, i have no drive
[14:43] <lowki> gotta find your trash though
[14:43] <kinja-sheep> ondra: "lsmod | grep rt" turns up anything?
[14:43] <lesa> hi
[14:43] <biznock09> how can i find the trash
[14:43] <lowki> biznock09: really, it should be there somewhere
[14:43] <lowki> ls -a ~
[14:43] <ondra> kinja-sheep, http://pastebin.org/71026
[14:44] <biznock09> lowki is there a way to get a directory
[14:44] <biznock09> lowki ok
[14:44] <scunizi> Dr_Willis: that's not bad.. I wonder when docs will be out for multiseatX on 9.10+.. of course with gnome 3.0 coming up there's major changes there too.
[14:44] <lowki> do you see a .Trash ? or .local ?

[14:51] <deviad> popey, even though the latest patch added audio support, I can hear just scratchy noises...
[14:52] <mbeierl> Milp: /var/log/auth.log for authentication - what do you mean by "log" though?
[14:52] <Danskmand> Howdy :-) - Has someone here tried to install Domino on Ubuntu ? - maybe also as a esx-guest ?
[14:52] <Milp> Like who connects, who failed to enter the password and such, because i suspect that something malicious is going on
[14:53] <mbeierl> Milp: that should be /var/log/auth.log
