[00:01] <induz> ose-dkms and ose-qt are also coming with -ose
[00:01] <edbian> travaler: Then you'll just have to read the output yourself :(
[00:01] <edbian> Knuxgen: What is a virtual drive?  (your harddrives and jump drives are physical)
[00:01] <pfifo> edbian, /dev/loop device for windows
[00:01] <induz> edbian, do i have to download some utilities too
[00:01] <edbian> induz: no. the package should do it for you
[00:02] <sl33k_> 10.04 hangs with a greyish screen. any workaround?
[00:02] <Knuxgen> edbian: it makes a virtual cd/dvd rom and mounts an iso file so you dont have to burn it
[00:02] <edbian> Knuxgen: neato
[00:02] <HeimdalWK> I am installing ubuntu 10.10 on a spare PC and I am stuck on the Who are you? screen  I filled out all the fields and I still can't press the forward button
[00:02] <induz> also, edbian , do i need a DVD iso image as i have iso image on my HDD'
[00:02] <edbian> Knuxgen: this is not wubi.  (unless you start wubi) I don't think you'll be able to install Ubuntu because you won't be able to partition
[00:02] <edbian> induz: not for virtualbox
[00:03] <travaler> edbian it is confirmed it does NOT show up, I simply compared the output with it pluged in vs. not pluged in
[00:03] <sl33k_> is there any fix when ubuntu hangs?
[00:03] <edbian> travaler: lsusb
[00:03] <induz> edbian, thanks
[00:03] <edbian> induz: sure
[00:03] <Knuxgen> edbian: i've made two partitions before to be ready for ubuntu
[00:03] <Knuxgen> it's just i can't install it
[00:03] <Aftermath> Hey, Ive installed preload, what else can i do to speed up ubuntu?
[00:03] <travaler> edbian yes it shows up
[00:03] <edbian> Knuxgen: Why can't you?
[00:03] <travaler> edbian as Belkin F5D6050 802.11b Adapter
[00:03] <edbian> Aftermath: Use a light weight desktop like xfce or lxde.  Turn of compiz
[00:03] <Knuxgen> edbian: however i burn it, it gives me the screen i posted
[00:04] <Knuxgen> edbian: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_Tr3-Pi0d7LQ/TatmuiIp3fI/AAAAAAAAAJc/PKjjiKWEicI/s1440/IMAG0050.jpg
[00:04] <edbian> Knuxgen: link please?
[00:04] <edbian> Knuxgen: Oh yeah.  The image is bad.
[00:04] <Knuxgen> it seems so crazy strainght-forward
[00:04] <edbian> Knuxgen: Didn't we do this a while ago?
[00:04] <Knuxgen> straight*
[00:04] <sl33k_>  is there any fix when ubuntu hangs?
[00:05] <daftykins> octavio-rdz: you'd have to use VNC
[00:05] <Knuxgen> edbian: we did, i burned again, md5sum is correct, dont know what else might be wrong
[00:06] <SniperXPX> How do I modify my sshd_config or iptables so that only certain users are allowed to SSH into the box if they are localhost?
[00:06] <pfifo> Knuxgen, are you at that prompt now? (initramfs)
[00:06] <edbian> Knuxgen: mmm.  try the other CD drive?
[00:06] <sl33k_> gah
[00:08] <cybrhuman> SniperXPX: changing iptables to only allow ssh from localhost should be straightforward, instead of ALL write 'localhost' I think
[00:08] <SniperXPX> cyberhuman: only for certain users
[00:08] <multipass> hi, i cant get into ubuntu or safe mode, it seems as though theres some big error with my usb devices.. the last thing i did was some stuff in oracle virtual box with usb (iphone).. anyone know if theres something i can do?
[00:08] <SniperXPX> cyberhuman: not for all ssh connections
[00:08] <adac> is there a way to increase inodes?
[00:09] <cybrhuman> SniperXPX: aha, then I cannot help much I think, but I assume you need to look into some sshd config.
[00:09] <bin_bash> Hello. I have a MBP 8,1 and I followed the instructions for making a bootable USB on OS X, but when I try to select the USB from the boot menu it doesn't show up.
[00:09] <adac> i would still have 40 gigs freem, but my inodes are full
[00:09] <Knuxgen> edbian: dont have any other :) i'll try to go with UNetbootin and we will see
[00:09] <SniperXPX> cyberhuman: wasn't sure if there was some inter-operability with iptables and ssh or something, pam perhaps, i don't know.
[00:09] <Knuxgen> edbian: thanks for your time
[00:09] <edbian> Knuxgen: good luck!
[00:10] <edbian> Knuxgen: I'm guessing you have a sata CD drive and Ubuntu is getting confused with your sata HDD and your sata CD drive
[00:10] <multipass> when is ubuntu 11.04 released? was it the 22nd
[00:10] <popey> !natty
[00:11] <HeimdalWK> Installing Ubuntu10.10 I am stuck on the Usersetup screen I have filled out the fields but I still can not press forward
[00:11] <cubix> Greetings!
[00:11] <pfifo> adac, you can use tune2fs to do that, check the man page for specifics
[00:12] <multipass> has anyone heard of usb devices making ubuntu unable to boot up?
[00:12] <Seven_Six_Two> multipass, I have. I can't get past post if my usb external hd is plugged in
[00:12] <pfifo> HeimdalWK, make sure your username is in all lowercase
[00:12] <multipass> hmm

[00:13] <leftist> is there any way to access an iphone with 4.2.1?
[00:13] <mickster04> multipass: why don';t you just pull it out?
[00:13] <Osmodivs> Why does Ubuntu Does NOT recognizes my PCI WIFI card? It has been acting weird, I only have one PCI slot, and I constantly switch my Soundcard and my WIFI, perhaps the PCI slot is damaged? Becasue it was working a day ago
[00:13] <multipass> ive discnnected all usb devices and it still has problems
[00:14] <multipass> but in safe mode it permemently scans for usb devices
[00:14] <multipass> if i plug one in it checks it out
[00:14] <SniperXPX> How do I configure iptables or ssh so that only connections from localhost are allowed to be authenticated for certain users over ssh (ex: only user foobar may connect if source-address=localhost/<IP_ADDRESS> but root may login from ANY source-ipaddress)
[00:14] <mickster04> multipass: and then continues?
[00:14] <Seven_Six_Two> I hate it when a perfect opportunity arises for a "that's what she said" joke, and I can't say it because it's not rated G
[00:14] <multipass> mickster04: no, it just stays there... i can keep unplugging and replugging and it will list the device
[00:15] <luciferus> на руском кто нибудь говорит?
[00:15] <Seven_Six_Two> !ru | luciferus
[00:15] <leftist> is there any way to access an iphone with 4.2.1?
[00:15] <_pg_> leftist: ?
[00:16] <leftist> i cant access my iphone as a external device _pg_
[00:16] <lenyem> how can I tell the PID of the shell I am currently running?
[00:16] <multipass> leftist: i used oracle virtual box and ran a xp box for my iphone
[00:16] <_pg_> leftist: try gtkpod
[00:16] <Osmodivs> Luciferus is not speaking Russian, he is speaking Kosovo
[00:17] <leftist> yeah multipass i know but i wanted to do it more native
[00:17] <leftist> ok _pg_
 People come here just for help?
[00:17] <multipass> yeah.. i tried that

[00:17] <Osmodivs> luciferus, Nein
[00:17] <luciferus> ok
[00:17] <Osmodivs> luciferus, Niet
[00:17] <luciferus> i not need help

[00:18] <leftist> get the following error with just a normal insert DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)
[00:18] <pfifo> lenyem, you can type 'tty' to get the name of you tty, and then 'ps aux' to cross reference the tty to a bash program with a PID
[00:18] <Seven_Six_Two> luciferus, you could hang out in #ubuntu-offtopic
[00:18] <chotaz> How do I install easycam2 on Ubuntu 10.10
 very uncomfortable and unusual client program, I'm sorry, I saw immediately
[00:20] <_pg_> on my ubuntu machine, i want to use sun java. i installed it, but still have something called "java". i have removed open jdk also
[00:21] <mickster04> _pg_: this is a problem because...?
[00:22] <multipass> im about to reformat.. should i go with 11.04 or 10.10?
[00:23] <leftist> i think gtkpod works my iphone is empty of media but i will try it
[00:23] <_pg_> mickster04: i want to know its using sun java not "java"
[00:23] <_pg_> im trying to play minecraft but its a real struggle
[00:24] <chotaz> How do I install easycam2 on Ubuntu 10.10=?
[00:25] <Aginor> _pg_, 'java' is the generic name for most java interpreters. doing 'which java' and 'java -version' should tell you more about the specific JVM you have installed
[00:25] <Aginor> _pg_, (in a terminal window)
[00:25] <mickster04> chotaz: is it in the repos?
[00:25] <chotaz> mickster04 no
[00:26] <mickster04> chotaz: what file type is the installer available in?
[00:26] <_pg_> thanks :D
[00:26] <aw2s0m2> Googling:)
[00:26] <chotaz> mickster04: I wanna get my NGS Spincam working
[00:26] <chotaz> mickster04: *.deb
[00:26] <mickster04> chotaz: it should just work, have you tried cheese?
[00:26] <mickster04> !info cheese
[00:26] <chotaz> mickster04:  yep says no webcam was detected yet I run lsusb, and one device without name shows up
[00:28] <chotaz> mickster04: that unnamed deviced disappears after unplugging the webcam from the computer
[00:28] <mickster04> !webcam
[00:28] <mickster04> chotaz: try that? otherwise i have no idea
[00:29] <induz> eok VBox is running now
[00:30] <jessicaBR> hello, I wonder if anyone has the same problem as I... Everytime I try to connect to a wireless network my ubuntu crashes... It completely freezes, no even Ctrl+Alt+F1 works... Any idea why? Wireless drivers problems?
[00:30] <antant> hey guys. can I use aptitude or apt-get to find out what package contains a file I need?
[00:32] <arand> antant: Use apt-file
[00:32] <pfifo> antant, i dont think it can search given the name of a binary, but its worth trying
[00:32] <antant> cheers arand
[00:32] <zkriesse> I'd roll with synaptic package manager myself
[00:33] <qubit1> hi
[00:33] <zkriesse> qubit1: Hi
[00:34] <octavio-rdz> ext4 or btrfs for a SSD disc?
[00:34] <jessicaBR> if someone knows how to help me, pls do it :) This problem is really freaking me out... :-(
[00:34] <arand> octavio-rdz: ext4 is stable, btrfs not.
[00:34] <jessicaBR> Everytime I try to connect to a wireless network my ubuntu crashes... It completely freezes, no even Ctrl+Alt+F1 works... Any idea why? Wireless drivers problems?
[00:35] <vadi2> When X server completely crashes, where to look for logs?
[00:35] <zkriesse> !wireless | jessicaBR
[00:36] <jessicaBR> zkriesse, what does that mean?
[00:36] <jessicaBR> ubottu, thanks, going to read it
[00:36] <jessicaBR> hmm
[00:36] <jessicaBR> i see
[00:36] <pfifo> vadi2, /var/log has the Xorg logs
[00:36] <vadi2> Which ones are relevant?
[00:36] <edcruz> relow
[00:36] <zkriesse> Lol sorry jessicaBR other than that link I cant think of much right off the top of my head :)
[00:36] <pfifo> vadi2, the most recent
[00:37] <jessicaBR> zkriesse, np, that's great, going to read it
[00:37] <vadi2> Only has loading information as far as I acn see
[00:37] <zkriesse> jessicaBR: :)
[00:37] <edcruz> Edson BR
[00:38] <edcruz> tem alguem que tc portugues ai??
[00:38] <sundjinnkari> Does anyone know if steam can run on linux?
[00:38] <sundjinnkari> or better yet, ubuntu
[00:38] <pfifo> vadi2, yeah that its log, if it crashed there might be some info in dmesg or syslog, but usually you dont get much more than a backtrace
[00:38] <Aginor> sundjinnkari, using wine
[00:38] <Aginor> !wine | sundjinnkari
[00:39] <sundjinnkari> how well does it run in wine?
[00:39] <pfifo> sundjinnkari, im pretty sure steam makes a linux version now
[00:39] <pfifo> valve rather
[00:39] <aeon-ltd> pfifo: they denied that a few months ago
[00:40] <jessicaBR> edcruz, eu :)
[00:40] <pfifo> sundjinnkari, i got MW2 running in wine, steam works fine, the games are the problem
[00:40] <sundjinnkari> Ah.
[00:40] <Aginor> sundjinnkari, it varies between applications, steam works pretty well though. it's what the appdb is for
[00:40] <sundjinnkari> alright.
[00:40] <sundjinnkari> then again you get a game like Rise of Nations where there really isnt much documentation and a ton of problems.
[00:40] <sundjinnkari> Which also burns me.
[00:40] <sundjinnkari> because I love that game.
[00:43] <_pg_> where should i put apps i install?
[00:43] <ndxtg> anyone free? please help me fix this 7 line bash code: http://pastebin.com/Rs1sQtDK . I run "./runmount.sh u" to unmount but it gives error
[00:44] <pfifo> _pg_, /usr/local is mde for that /opt is available too
[00:44] <_pg_> thx
[00:45] <_pg_> pfifo: any deeper in usr/local?
[00:45] <Aginor> ndxtg, bash doesn't like spaces around the variables for assignments, also, variables don't use the '$' when they're being declared
[00:45] <Aginor> sundjinnkari, write the developer and ask them to release a native linux port of the game
[00:46] <pfifo> _pg_, no bins in /usr/local/bin libs in /usr/local/lib
[00:46] <Aginor> ndxtg, http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/
[00:47]  * _pg_ is a noob. where do i put apps, usr/local/xxx
[00:47] <pfifo> _pg_, apps = bin
[00:47] <Ben64> _pg_: how are you installing them
[00:47] <pfifo> _pg_, compile like this, ./configure --prefix=/usr/local && make && make install
[00:48] <Ben64> almost all of the time you would never put binaries in there manualy
[00:48] <_pg_> mostly just extracting zips, .jars, etc
[00:49] <_pg_> not compiling
[00:50] <UbuntuN00b1> is the ubuntu desktop edition that is installed with the netbook edition the same as the *original* desktop edition?
[00:50] <antant> anyone have any idea where I get '/usr/lib/libc.a'? I've tried apt-file and it came up with nothing
[00:50] <ndxtg> Aginor: got it; it's fixed now, thank you
[00:50] <pfifo> _pg_, tthe binaries go in /usr/local/bin but if you have a package that wants everything in a single folder then you put it in /opt
[00:50] <_pg_> alright ill tr that
[00:50] <cubix> Greetings!
[00:51] <multipass> hi, my ubuntu 10.10 freezes shortly after running  /scripts/init-bottom -- any idea how i can fix this

[00:53] <antant> oh
[00:53] <antant> not to me
[00:53] <Tunix2> i meant #chmod -R +rwx :sys /home/games
[00:54] <pfifo> Aftermath, I havent found a solution myself, good luck
[00:54] <chotaz> I conenct my webcan and when I do lsusb all i get is a device with no name on it, what can i do?
[00:54] <Tunix2> no such file or directory ':sys'
[00:54] <Aftermath> pfifo im looking at a guide on Maximum PC, ill link you if it works
[00:55] <pfifo> Aftermath, dont bother with Red6 or FME neither worked out for me
[00:55] <Aftermath> ok
[00:55] <servidor> alguem do brasil?
[00:55] <Aginor> antant, have you installed development-essentials?
[00:55] <_pg_> can i change perms on /opt? i cant put anything in there
[00:55] <_pg_> i mean i know i can, is it wise?
[00:56] <antant> nope
[00:56] <Aginor> _pg_, use sudo to work with it
[00:56] <antant> I'll try that, cheers
[00:56] <pfifo> _pg_, you should be installing system wide programs as root
[00:56] <Aginor> antant, what do you need the file for?
[00:56] <_pg_> is there like a sudo paste?
[00:56] <antant> building OpenELEC
[00:57] <doobien> Aftermath, i use minidlna and ps3mediaserver
[00:57] <Baribal> _pg_, a what?
[00:57] <_pg_> im just trying to move this stuff from downloads to /opt
[00:57] <Baribal> Anyways, hi. Where is the compiz effect configurator hiding, or what is its name these days?
[00:57] <Aginor> antant, install build-essentials, that should be a good start, then you might need to install a few more -dev packages
[00:57] <_pg_> because thats where programs are supposed to live im told
[00:57] <mithridates> I was upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04 that in the last stage I got hdd failure, I did "dpkg --configure -a" now when I boot it nothing happens, a black screen
[00:57] <mithridates> how can I fix that ^
[00:57] <Baribal> _pg_, sudo cp or sudo mv?
[00:57] <pfifo> _pg_, best to use the cli, but you can try sudo nautilus
[00:57] <antant> got build-essential
[00:57] <_pg_> thnx
[00:58] <fuller> Can someone help me with the hcitool cc command
[00:58] <antant> it lists all the stuff that's missing, /usr/lib/libc.a was that last one on the list

[00:59] <pfifo> ckwalsh, yes
[00:59] <mithridates> I was upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04 that in the last stage I got hdd failure, I did "dpkg --configure -a" now when I boot it nothing happens, a black screen
[00:59] <Aginor> ckwalsh, as far as I know, yes
[00:59] <mithridates> any idea ??? how can I fix it?
[00:59] <Aginor> !natty | mithridates
[00:59] <mithridates> thanks
[01:00] <Aginor> antant, I'll be back in an hour or so, do have a look if that file really is missing
[01:00] <_pg_> bad magic number?
[01:00] <chotaz> I get this in 'demsg' when I plugin my webcam: 'endpoint lacks sample rate attribute bit, cannot set.' what mgiht this be?
[01:00] <_pg_> exec format errer
[01:00] <pfifo> !wine | _pg_
[01:00] <doobien> Aftermath, there is a easy to follow file that gives you examples in /etc/minidlna.conf
[01:01] <sparrW> My firefox has somehow ended up using gnash instead of the adobe flash player. All three (firefox, gnash, flash) are installed from ubuntu packages. How can I fix this?
[01:01] <_pg_> its a nix app im moving
[01:01] <antant> Cheers aginor. I found it in /usr/lib/linux-i386/ or somewhere like that so I just cp'd it in
[01:01] <Aftermath> doobien, thanks
[01:02] <pfifo> _pg_, then it might be the wrong arch, or maybe 64bit and your on 32bit
[01:03] <multipass> can anyone help? ubuntu 10.10 freezes after running /scripts/init-bottom, i cannot get into ubuntu

[01:07] <multipass> pfifo: whats the command to do that?

[01:08] <doobien> mmmk
[01:09] <Aftermath> pfifo, may i pm you for a moment?
[01:10] <pfifo> i guess

[01:17] <user__> I just installed ubuntu 10.10 on a laptop and I'm having issues connecting to my wireless network.
[01:18] <lolmatic> hi
[01:18] <pfifo> multipass_, there should be an option for it in grub
[01:18] <CptAnon> user__,  can you give any more detail?
[01:18] <lolmatic> where is xorg.conf located in ubuntu? i cant find it
[01:18] <multipass_> oh, i have been trying recovery mode, but it hangs after the init-bottom also
[01:18] <kaushal> user__: please pastebin your lspci
[01:18] <pfifo> multipass_, both with and without networking?
[01:19] <fr00g> Can anybody help me with emerald? I type emerald --replace into a terminal, and the cursor starts to flash, but it's not wroking
[01:19] <user__> sure, i set up a connection and enter the WEP hex code, it sits for a while and then the connection window pops up again
[01:19] <multipass_> pfifo, im booting into (recovery mode), do i do something special to get networking?
[01:20] <CptAnon> That happens to me when the code is wrong
[01:20] <pfifo> multipass_, it pops up a ncurses menu, you havent even got to that menu?
[01:20] <user__> I've checked the key several times
[01:20] <user__> checked show key...
[01:20] <CptAnon> and has it worked with other networks?
[01:21] <rww> !emerald | fr00g
[01:21] <multipass_> pfifo, im just in the grub menu atm, with ubuntu linux, ubuntu linux recovery mode
[01:21] <pfifo> multipass_, do reovery mode
[01:21] <user__> I have not tried other networks, but that is something  i will try
[01:22] <multipass_> pfifo, just hit enter? or edit the commands before booting?
[01:22] <kaushal> lolmatic: sudo find / -iname xorg.conf
[01:22] <pfifo> multipass_, just enter
[01:22] <multipass_> pfifo, i have been, but it does the same thing and dies after init-bottom.. looks just like doing no silent splash
[01:23] <pfifo> multipass_, and you said you installed some virtualbox stuff?
[01:23] <multipass_> pfifo, yeah
[01:23] <multipass_> pfifo, i may have updated ubuntu a little yesteday too
[01:23] <_SKiTZO> hi! I have several hardware MIDI devices, and I am wondering how I can enumerate them to se that they are actually found by ALSA
[01:23] <_SKiTZO> see
[01:24] <_SKiTZO> any hints would be appreciated!
[01:24] <pfifo> multipass_, It sounds like you were given a bad kernel module, perhaps a version mismatch. You should reinstall to the latest version of ubuntu
[01:25] <Fudge> hi, how can i remvoe  a package without its dependency, trying to remove speakup but speechd-up wants to go as well but i want to keep speechd-up
[01:25] <gaelfx> after I login, it takes a couple minutes for my panels to show up and none of my windows have borders, how can I fix it?
[01:25] <multipass_> pfifo, i was on 10.10 and was just upgrading some packages hmm
[01:26] <pfifo> multipass_, if you really wanted to you could try to locate the module, and delete it, but its going to be alot LOT quicker to just reinstall.
[01:27] <multipass_> pfifo, ah ok, thanks for help, trying one last thing at bottom of this page - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/430272
[01:28] <user__> hehe I cant try it or I'll disconnect from this room.. is there a known issue with wireless and 10.10?
[01:28] <pfifo> multipass_, seems to be for karmic, but its worth a shot
[01:29] <gaelfx> do I need to reinstall ubuntu-desktop to get my borders back?
[01:29] <gaelfx> or is there a simpler way?
[01:31] <pfifo> gaelfx, what borders?
[01:31] <toad__> hi
[01:32] <pfifo> OHAI toad__
[01:32] <gaelfx> pfifo: the ones with the control buttons, close, mini, maxi
[01:32] <toad__> hello
[01:32] <toad__> whats good
[01:32] <pfifo> gaelfx, look in your themes settings see if theres anything it can do to restore them.
[01:33] <gaelfx> pfifo: I'll look at the customize options, thanks
[01:34] <alex__> My ubuntu 10.04 can't connect to a wireless network
[01:34] <Extra-Titanian> are your drivers installed correctly?
[01:34] <user__> alex___ I'm having the same issue with 10.10
[01:35] <user__> Extra-Titanian I'm a noob! how do i check?
[01:35] <Extra-Titanian> are the two ubuntu versions installed on the same computer?
[01:35] <wingnut2626> i need an older version of gfceu where can i get it?
[01:37] <Extra-Titanian> quick question, everytime I unplug my laptop, ubuntu shuts down
[01:37] <airstrike> your battery is kaput
[01:38] <user__> Extra-Titanian is your cooling fan running?
[01:38] <UbuntuNoob> Extra-Titanian: ubuntu or the whole laptop?
[01:38] <pfifo> Extra-Titanian, disable stuff in power options, it thinks your battery is broke and goes critical
[01:38] <zee313> Dr_willis:Plz tell me any solution to retrieve my flash free space
[01:38] <Heylookitsbret> anybody able to help me create a bridge in 10.10?
[01:38] <yabuk> I cant transfer file from my ipod touch to ubuntu. my ipod opens like a usb disk, and I see files, I can copy, but the copy process never ends! hoe to fix it??
[01:39] <apocaliptica61> hi
[01:39] <Extra-Titanian> cooling fan works, laptop is still pretty new
[01:39] <zee313> yabuk: this will be done through a software.
[01:40] <apocaliptica61> Icant use wirless conection on ubunto via vmware
[01:40] <apocaliptica61> someone could help?
[01:40] <Extra-Titanian> the laptop goes into shutdown, like it does when i type shutdown, what's funny is, if it's not plugged in, everything works fine
[01:40] <JWFoxJr> apocaliptica61: use VirtualBox - it will allow you to bridge your wireless connection.
[01:40] <apocaliptica61> could tell me how?
[01:41] <UbuntuNoob> Extra-Titanian, I have a somewhat similar problem where it seems to hibernate or something, but it doesnt completely shutdown
[01:41] <yabuk> zee313: what software?
[01:41] <Extra-Titanian> that's weird
[01:41] <Extra-Titanian> good thing it boots fast i guess
[01:41] <zee313> yabuk: lets allow me to check in my system
[01:42] <pfifo> Extra-Titanian, like i said, simply disable shutting down in the power options and it wont shutdown
[01:42] <NictraSavios> Back.
[01:43] <Extra-Titanian> shutdown's been disabled since i did the install, still does it
[01:43] <apocaliptica61> thx i am  installing virtualbox
[01:43] <pfifo> Extra-Titanian, are you sure? there a "on battery" tab too
[01:43] <Extra-Titanian> yep
[01:43] <steverino> Question: anyone know how to make Nautilus my default file manager in xubuntu?  Right now, it's Thunar.
[01:44] <Extra-Titanian> it was like, the second thing i did after i installed
[01:44] <RealOpty> whats that tool name that makes your current ubuntu 'install' to a remastered ubuntu CD?
[01:44] <pfifo> Extra-Titanian, then perhaps its your laptop
[01:45] <Extra-Titanian> which is weird because it all worked perfectly under 7.
[01:45] <Extra-Titanian> I'll have to recalibrate the battery tonight and see if that helps any
[01:46] <pfifo> Extra-Titanian, I always disable acpi all together on my laptops, blacklisting acpi would probbally fix it, you might not like not having acpi tho.
[01:46] <NictraSavios> steverino: nautilus is part of the gnome desktop :) if you try to use it in xfce your gonna be in for a world of headaches
[01:46] <zee313> yabuk: you can use banshee media player.
[01:47] <Extra-Titanian> haha, what'll be the downsides of disabling it?
[01:47] <yabuk> zee313: thank you, i'm going try banshee
[01:48] <steverino> NictraSavios: Oh . . .  I actually installed it via synaptic and launch it in the terminal.  Am I going to mess things up?
[01:48] <Wolframn> yabuk, banshee is really quite good. I like it better than Rhythmbox.
[01:48] <pfifo> Extra-Titanian, no debug info, if your battery runs out of charge it simply shuts off instantly.
[01:50] <Extra-Titanian> meh, it only lasts like an hour anyway, I'll go give it a shot
[01:50] <Extra-Titanian> thanks for the help
[01:50] <pfifo> yyeah
[01:50] <NictraSavios> steverino: I'm not saying you can't do it. Its going to be very inconsistant and spit out a billion errors tho. its also gonna rely on major parts of gnome themes and icon sets, so your gonna need them. Youll need to change a ton of stuff to get it working, the likes of which scare me. And ive made an arch Linux system with xfce... So you know your inffor some pain :P But, you can do it. It will not be easy... if you want me to help you,
[01:50] <NictraSavios> ill open a private convo for 3 reasons. One) this isnt the Xubuntu irc. 2) theres alot of work involved.
[01:51] <NictraSavios> sterverino: 3) i think the mods are alredy mad at me for going off-topic a few times lmao.
[01:51] <zee313> I hav 16GB Kingston Data Traveler. I made it a bootable by using unetbootin no my flash is showing its capacity only 2 GB. Plz solve my problem. How to format it?
[01:53] <NictraSavios> zee313: you made a big persistance file didnt you?
[01:53] <pfifo> is there anyway to adjust the time that sudo allows between calls before asking for password again?
[01:53] <NictraSavios> pfifo: Yes, in the sudoers file. default is 15 minutes.
[01:54] <apocaliptica61> i just downloand ann isntall virtualbox the question is what i need to do run it ??
[01:54] <pfifo> NictraSavios, but do you know the line? My sudoers doesnt have it commented
[01:54] <ouyes> what version of ubuntu are you running? 10.04 8.04?
[01:55] <NictraSavios> apocaliptica61: Read the virtual box website, they tell you everything. www.virtualbox.org (I think, might be .com)
[01:55] <zaery> I've got a website on a server at my workplace, on port 8080, with a public, static IP. I could see the website using the local, in-building IP. Now that I'm back at my house, I can still ssh to that machine, but I get connection timeouts when i try to look for the website. Anyone Know what could be wrong?
[01:55] <apocaliptica61> ok thx
[01:55] <zaery> (All ports for that IP are forwarded to that machine, btw)
[01:55] <NictraSavios> pfifo:  hit the terminal, enter visudo (or if you want  EDITOR=gedit visudo)
[01:55] <NictraSavios> pfifo: i dont know the exact line, gimme  sec.
[01:56] <zee313> NictraSavios: Now I want to format it but here in ubuntu after format it shows my flash capacity only 2 GB. I want only how to recover my flash's original capacity????
[01:56] <pfifo> zaery, you sure apache is bound to the right address?
[01:57] <NictraSavios> pfifo: its not in there by default. add this line to the end: Defaults timestamp_timeout=0 , where 0 is the number of minutes.
[01:57] <zaery> pfifo: yup
[01:57] <NictraSavios> zee313: Oh , i had this problem with  my 4gb baby blue. I know how to fix it, i have a problem on how to explain it to you... do you have a windows partition or full ubuntu?
[01:57] <pfifo> NictraSavios, thanks
[01:57] <NictraSavios> pfifo: No problem :)
[01:58] <zaery> zee313: go to system->administration->disk utility. select your flash drive on the left. what do the partitions look like?
[01:58] <yabuk> zee313: do you can save videos from you ipod touch with banshee?
[01:58] <_pg_> i have a script that enables 2 finger scroll. when i launch it in terminal it works. i cannot get it to run as a startup item tho. i have added it to the list and i have marked it execuatable via the checkbox in nautilus and chmod a+x
[01:58] <NictraSavios> zaery: ive had this problem before, i used a special hp formating tool in windows to do it, disk utility and the stock windows formater couldnt do it.
[01:59] <pfifo> zaery, can you telnet to it on 8080
[01:59] <ouyes> which version of ubuntu was running most ? 10.04 8.04?
 add this line to the start of the script: sleep 30 (or 60)
[01:59] <zaery> pfifo: nope
[01:59] <zee313> NictraSavios: zaery: i hav my PC dual boot . I have windows XP as well as ubuntu 10.10
 that will make it wait before executing.
[02:00] <_pg_> NictraSavios: is that seconds?
[02:00] <inaxio> my rythmbox doesnt display song lengths for mp3s (dont know about other formats), what is the problem?
[02:00] <pfifo> zaery, sounds like you have a firewall blocking it somewhere
[02:00] <NictraSavios> zaery:  okay, gimme a second ill upload a tool to media fire, it will solve it kay?
 Yep :)
[02:00] <_pg_> NictraSavios: do i need /bin/bash or anything in there?
[02:00] <_pg_> its just 4 lines that all start with synclient
 #!/bin/bash should always be your first line in a bash script
[02:01] <_pg_> what is to comment out in bash
[02:01] <_pg_> \
[02:01] <zaery> NictraSavios: a tool for zee313's flash drive issue, or a tool for my port blocked issue?
[02:01] <gaelfx> ok, I'm having a really weird problem here. first, my panels take about 3+ minutes to appear after login, then my window borders are completely gone, and then when I open terminal, it takes about a minute to show up and it has some crazy garbage and then 'File name too long' before I even enter anything. what's going on with my install? (it's a fresh one)
[02:02] <apocaliptica61> so if i ahve undesrtand well we cant use wirless conextion on ubunto via vmware but only via virtualbox?
[02:02] <NictraSavios> zaery: for zee.
[02:03] <NictraSavios> zee313: http://www.mediafire.com/?exg1a1btybjlbub
[02:03] <NictraSavios> zee313: Windows program :)
[02:04] <NictraSavios> gaelfx: So.... how much time do you got. Thats gonna take a while to fix. I have no idea what you did... but i have a few ideas. Your better off on a re-install.
[02:04] <NictraSavios> apocaliptica61: Vmware on linux kinda sucks i must say, your better off using virtual box
 coment out in bash is #.
 coment out in bash is #  , no "." , just the #
[02:05] <gaelfx> NictraSavios: this is the reinstall, it was supposed to fix this problem
[02:06] <mrproper> Can anyone comment on what the best/easiest way to setup Ubuntu server as a VPN concentrator is?
[02:06] <NictraSavios> gaelfx: you formated your partitions before (or durrin) reinstall?
[02:06] <NictraSavios> mrproper: I dont know much about VPN, ill get a friend to help you tho. Ill call him over now. (hes only 10 steps away)
[02:07] <gaelfx> NictraSavios: only /, not /home
[02:07] <jmwpc> NictraSavios: Agree... I gave up on VMWare and switched to VBox. I have a windows server running as a guest with no problems.
[02:07] <RealOpty> how can i make current ubuntu 'install' to a remastered ubuntu CD?
[02:07] <mrproper> NictraSavios: Thanks.
[02:07] <NictraSavios> mrproper: He sent me a book mark > http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=132029
[02:08] <NictraSavios> gaelfx: Hmm. Id try both. For that matter, if your gonna bother with partitons... I would set up one extended partition with a 200mb /boot , a 10-20gb / and a * /home
[02:08] <mrproper> NictraSavios: Wow that seems pretty simple actually
[02:08] <pfifo> RealOpty, yes
[02:09] <gaelfx> NictraSavios: what should I throw in the /boot? livecd?
[02:09] <RealOpty> pfifo, how?
[02:09] <pfifo> RealOpty, theres a package for it
[02:09] <NictraSavios> mrproper: I didnt even open it :P me and 7 roomates share a cluster... 7 computers hooked up to one big RAID Harddrive. , hes the network guy :P
[02:10] <mrproper> NictraSavios: Oh nice.  I was going to set up OpenSWAN or something but this looks easier
[02:10] <NictraSavios> gealfx: when your installing ubuntu go to "manual" partitong, mount /boot in the 200mb one, / in the 10-20gb one and /home in the Whatever one.
[02:11] <milkdee72> hey. i was using ubuntu 10.10 tonight, and my laptop experienced massive slowdown. i restarted it, and i get to the screen where you normally log in, but my profile is not showing, so i can not log on. does anyone know whats happened? i would be forever in your debt. :D
[02:11] <NictraSavios> gealfx: since  your gonna bother with a reinstall, i would read up on "MBR partitions" it helps to have seperate /boot /home and / ones. All in a big extented no less
[02:11] <gaelfx> NictraSavios: yeah, I know how to do it, but I just don't understand how to use a /boot partition
[02:12] <kandinski> upgrading lucid to natty: good idea, bad, neutral?
[02:12] <mickster04> !natty
[02:12] <daniel> good
[02:12] <gaelfx> NictraSavios: ah, ok. is there anything else useful I can put in there like a recovery iso or something?
[02:12] <NictraSavios> gaelfx:  Ubuntu mounts grub and its images there. It means, even if you screw your system, it wont be unbootable.
[02:12] <daniel> natty is awesome
[02:12] <pfifo> RealOpty, I cant seem to find the right quesstion to ask google to get to more information
[02:12] <daniel> but how do i install gimp from the terminal
[02:13] <RealOpty> pfifo, is it Reconstructor?
[02:13] <mahfrk> hi, i downloaded the Red Eclipse FPS game from here(source file for linux) http://sourceforge.net/projects/redeclipse/files/redeclipse_1.0/ . how to install it?
[02:13] <kandinski> daniel: I meant upgrading lucid *directly* to natty from lucid without going through Maverick. I have bad bandwidth and a download cap.
[02:13] <aeon-ltd> daniel: sudo apt-get install gimp
[02:13] <mickster04> daniel: sudo apt-get install gimp<tab here)
[02:13] <NictraSavios> gaelfx: Yes you can, now that you mention it, i myself keep a "puppy linux" in my /boot for recovery. Its a little more complex, because you have to install puppy, then reinstall ubuntu.... but it dose work.
[02:13] <daniel> thx
[02:13] <gaelfx> NictraSavios: I normally separate / and /home, but I've never used /boot before, so I just wonder if there are any other neat little tricks I might do with it, so maybe I should make it larger?
[02:14] <milkdee72> anyone? :(
[02:14] <gaelfx> NictraSavios: do you just put an iso in there or what?
[02:14] <daniel> kandinski, well mabey hop from oen to the other but unity is awesome and totoally worth it
[02:15] <NictraSavios> gaelfx: But thats geting into a complexity. For your average user, like yourself. Its mainly used for multiboot setups. Say if you have Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Windows, and you wanna switch out ubuntu for open suse, but ubuntu is where grub is... well you can just format your /home and / and install suse there, and your bootloader remains untouched as long as you dont overwrite it.
[02:15] <gaelfx> NictraSavios: ok, fair enough, I'll just keep it simple I guess
[02:16] <NictraSavios> gaelfx:http://blog.flameeyes.eu/2007/11/02/why-people-insist-on-using-boot
[02:16] <pfifo> RealOpty, no there is an ubuntu official script for it that is really broken in 9.04 that i tried once and didnt work and after wards learned how to just create a custom livecd which is a better idea to begin with.
[02:16] <NictraSavios> milkdee72: sorry i didnt see, what was your porblem.
[02:16] <NictraSavios> milkdee72: problem*
[02:17] <mrproper> NictraSavios: Would you ask him if pptp uses split tunneling or no?
[02:17] <RealOpty> pfifo, i just read up on that too. but nvm i know the solution im gonna take to my issue now. ty
[02:17] <NictraSavios> milkdee72: nvm, ohh that. Hmm... i got an idea for you. Press Cntl+Alt+f1 and logg in, youll be at a pure command line tho.
[02:17] <milkdee72> NictraSavios: I was adjusting audio seetings for Skype, and I encountered massive slowdown. I did a hard reboot, and now when I reach the log in screen, my profile doesn't show up, making it impossible to log in. any suggestions?
[02:17] <milkdee72> thanks, ill try iy
[02:18] <NictraSavios> milkdee72: press cntl+alt+f7 to get back to a GUI.
[02:18] <mrproper> NictraSavios: Actually looks like the documents address that
[02:18] <NictraSavios> mrproper: Oh really, never thought to check, wanted to make sure he didnt brick gdm first.
[02:18] <milkdee72> *it
[02:19] <brightspark> How can I remove old keyboard layouts from the menu that shows up when I click my picture at the login screen?

[02:19] <gaelfx> is there any advantage to logical partitions beyond getting more than 4 partitions on a single drive?
[02:20] <pfifo> gaelfx, no its actuall going to tak up a bit more space too
[02:20] <NictraSavios> gaelfx: I currently have a Windows 7, A fat32 shared for all my personal files and a ntfs for disk imges. Inside an extended i have ....
[02:21] <NictraSavios> gealfx: 1 swap, 3 20gb / partitions and one 100gb /home.
[02:21] <brightspark> NictraSavios, not for my session but the little menu below the password field at login.
[02:21] <NictraSavios> gealfx: allows me to have 3 Linix distros and one windows... so theres an advantage.... :)
[02:22] <milkdee72> i managed to log in with the terminal, but when i switch back to the gui, my profile isnt showing up. thank you for getting me this far, im moderatly new to linux
[02:22] <NictraSavios> brightspark: That will fix that aswell :)
[02:22] <pfifo> NictraSavios, I use 3 20's and a large home, all primary and have a nice swapfile on home
[02:22] <gaelfx> NictraSavios: I suppose, but this machine is pretty dedicated to my TV, so that's not so important for me :P
[02:22] <NictraSavios> brightspark: It might be in administration, im in Kubuntu right now... so i cant check.
[02:22] <gaelfx> pfifo: is it a noticeable difference? or just megs?
[02:23] <pfifo> gaelfx, i think it is 8MB per partition
[02:23] <NictraSavios> pfifo: 8mb for what?
[02:23] <milkdee72> apparently.whats happening is pulse audio looping, making my login hang. anyone have the commant line for uninstalling pulseaudio for me? once again, I am a supernoob.
[02:23] <brightspark> NictraSavios, it adds them but doesn't remove them.
[02:23] <NictraSavios> milkdee72: try sudo apt-get purge pulse
[02:24] <milkdee72> *command, i suck at typing as well
[02:24] <NictraSavios> milkdee72: try sudo apt-get purge pulse-audio, and the like.
[02:24] <pfifo> NictraSavios, for a logical partition
[02:24] <NictraSavios> brightspark: reboot. they should be gone.
[02:24] <edbian> milkdee72: I believe it's sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio   no hyphen
[02:25] <NictraSavios> brightspark: or if your really geeky , you can stop the gdm service. If you dont know how, you dont need to know :P.
[02:25] <NictraSavios> edbian: Thanks :) ive never used pulse so i had no idea.
[02:26] <edbian> NictraSavios: sure
[02:26] <milkdee72> thanks again for all the help, everyone. i keep getting an error "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo apt-get --configure -a' to correct the problem"
[02:27] <brightspark> NictraSavios, they aren't gone after a week's worth of reboots.
[02:27] <edbian> milkdee72: run that command
[02:27] <[[Mike]]> How can I get information on my computer's graphics card?
[02:27] <milkdee72> cool beans. ill tell you how it goes

[02:28] <NictraSavios> brightspark: Hmm... that worked for me when i addecently had the croatia keyboard ..... Well honestly  have no idea, maybe someone else dose, or google :P

[02:30] <mahfrk> hi, i downloaded the Red Eclipse FPS game from here(source file for linux) http://sourceforge.net/projects/redeclipse/files/redeclipse_1.0/ . how to install it?
[02:30] <NictraSavios> mahfrk, go to the folder, right click and "open terminal here"
[02:31] <NictraSavios> mahfrk, tell me when you got that far
[02:31] <NictraSavios> mahfrk, if its in a tar.gz or somthing, youll have to extract it first.
[02:31] <mahfrk> NictraSavios: I navigated to the folder by using terminal. but what to do next?
[02:31] <NictraSavios> ./configure && make && sudo make install
[02:32] <NictraSavios> Your termainals gonna spit out messages at you like an angrey preschooler.
[02:33] <almoxarife> NictraSavios: checkinstall is a better solution, a deb pckg is easier to remove
[02:33] <mahfrk> NictraSavios: after extracting and navigating inside the directory, when i run the command you told, i got 'bash: ./configure: No such file or directory'
[02:33] <NictraSavios> almoxarife: never heard of it :P Always been taught to use those commands, i even got em set on an alias.
[02:34] <NictraSavios> almoxarife: i always just moved the source folder to /usr/src when i was done, then if i wanted to remove it, went to it and ran "sudo make uninstalll"
[02:34] <almoxarife> NictraSavios: ubuntu package 'checkinstall'
[02:34] <gaelfx> I hate to start this way, but I know I should google...is there any way to fix plymouth with the nvidia drivers? or will I always get a crappy 8-bit greeting when I boot up?
[02:35] <brightspark> How can I remove old keyboard layouts from the menu that shows up when I click my picture at the login screen?
[02:35] <NictraSavios> gaelfx: if this was arch linux i could telll you in 5 seconds.... but ubuntu dosent use rc.confg or mkiinit so not a clue.
[02:35] <milkdee72> I can log in. Thanks sooooooo much guys.
[02:35] <pfifo> mahfrk, just type `make`
[02:35] <NictraSavios> Okay i need to take a breather, typing is getting horrible.
[02:36] <gaelfx> g/l, thanks for the reading NictraSavios
[02:36] <NictraSavios> mahfrk: Yep, try just "make && sudo make install"
[02:36] <NictraSavios> Dont worry im not going.... just need to get my head in order lmao.
[02:36] <mahfrk> pfifo: output: 'make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.'
[02:37] <pfifo> mahfrk, go into the src folder and try again
[02:37] <NictraSavios> mahfrk:  Hmm.... One secodn, ill download it and look for myself
[02:37] <pfifo> NictraSavios, take you a half hour or more
[02:38] <mahfrk> pfifo: okay. now it maked! but an error 'shared/cube.h:47:18: fatal error: zlib.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. make: *** [shared/cube.h.gch] Error 1'
[02:38] <NictraSavios> pfifo: nah... it says 7 minutes :P
[02:38] <NictraSavios> pfifo: nah... it says 7 minutes :P
[02:39] <NictraSavios> pfifo: We have to have a hardcore internet :P 1GBps. Were a group of white hats.
[02:39] <pfifo> mahfrk, you need to install its required dependacies, that one is `sudo apt-get install libz-dev`
[02:39] <milkdee72> im out of here everyone, but i really appreciate the help. thanks again.
[02:39] <NictraSavios> milkdee72: no prblem :)
[02:40] <Cas07> hi, ive just updated maverick to natty and i seem to have a package problem with libasound2 it wont upgrade without removing a large section of my applications

[02:44] <Nomadicus> Hello . . . I am trying to install proprietary ATI drivers, but it looks like the installer is not configured to cooperate with the realtime kernel: [ kernel 2.6.33-29-realtime (x86_64)  ].  Here is a paste of the build make log: [ http://pastie.org/1805535 ].  What can I do to configure the driver to install with this kernel?  These are the steps I have been folowing: [ http://drpaneas.com/?p=66 ].
[02:44] <ledd> sup everyone
[02:44] <dd214> What is the recommended anti-virus software for Maverick?
[02:44] <ledd> where  are the program folders locted
[02:44] <NictraSavios> dd214: None
[02:45] <Jordan_U> !virus | dd214
[02:45] <dd214> NictraSavios why?
[02:45] <NictraSavios> dd214: You dont need one bro! This is linux , ubuntu your talkin about. Antivirus is windows only .... as Jordan made ubbottu say.
[02:45] <dd214> I find that hard to believe, passive thinking?
[02:45] <multipass> hmm, does clonezilla.org work for you NictraSavios ?
[02:45] <pfifo> Nomadicus, any reason you compiling over using the one in the repos?
[02:45] <Nomadicus> ledd: /bin/bash
[02:46] <dd214> but Linux servers get hacked just as often as windows..
[02:46] <Nomadicus> pfifo: the repo will not install.
[02:46] <van7hu> hello, when I do assign static ip for eth0 (via /etc/interfaces, I use IPv4), but when I restart network, do ifconfig -a, I just get inet6 addr and  not inet addr, is this normal?
[02:46] <brightspark> How can I remove old keyboard layouts from the menu that shows up when I click my picture at the login screen?
[02:46] <Jordan_U> dd214: No viruses does not mean no vulnerabilities.
[02:46] <dd214> I'm new to LNX, but there is even AV for MAC
[02:46] <NictraSavios> dd214:  We use sudo, so viruses cant do more then clear our your home folder, and even thats hard. Want proof? Go to wikipedia and look up "Windows viruses" and "Linux viruses" Note windows has to be catagorized.... linux all fit in one paragraph.
[02:46] <pfifo> Nomadicus, maybe you should try to fix that problem instead.
[02:47] <skjeggen> hello
[02:47] <dd214> Jordan_U ic..
[02:47] <NictraSavios> dd214: And on top of all that, There<PHONE_NUMBER>735638753 diffrent linux, trying to make a virus for em is like trying to make a shirt that all blondes will wear... impossible.
[02:47] <Nomadicus> pfifo; I tried . . . continuing with is like going backwards for me now.
[02:48] <NictraSavios> dd214: take it from a white hat.... Linux is too much a pain to make viruses for. And the people who do... well my hat goes off to em.
[02:48] <pfifo> Nomadicus, you need the kernel-headers and build-essentials to build that package
[02:48] <skjeggen> anyone here who can help me get dual monitors running in seperate xscreens mode on natty narwhale? only twinview is useful atm
[02:48] <mickster04> !virus | dd214
[02:48] <mickster04> !natty | skjeggen
[02:48] <NictraSavios> skjeggen: I can :) I run a tri screen currentl.
[02:48] <NictraSavios> Oh forgot.... yea better go to Ubuntu+1
[02:48] <dd214> Now that I got the AV settled, what about a good backup?  I'm not running RAID, but running a VMWare workstation for my primary Win dev env.. so, I'm covered there, but need something to restore my LNX env if it goes tits up/
[02:48] <skjeggen> i will tnx :)
[02:49] <mickster04> !ohmy | dd214
[02:49] <mahfrk> pfifo: the same error exisys
[02:49] <NictraSavios> dd214: I like deja dup personally.
[02:50] <NictraSavios> dd214: Or when you get really advanced... Look into installing linux mints "mint backup" .... its a pretty decent.. but the Ubuntu support will disown you for using it.
[02:50] <dd214> NictraSavios thx
[02:50] <pfifo> mahfrk, you installed libsdl1.2-dev? if so type make clean, and then make, and patebin as much of the end of the output as you can
[02:50] <Nomadicus> dd214; once you start to understand how Linux works you will realize that there are many fundamental differences that minimize if not eliminate major concerns.
[02:51] <l_r> hello
[02:51] <van7hu> hello
[02:51] <multipass> best of

[02:51] <l_r> what's a good desktop recorder with ZOOM and stop/start
[02:51] <pfifo> OHAI!
[02:51] <NictraSavios> Well i gotta be off... Classes tommorow... Also gonna try a gentoo install... hmm. anyway, cyahs.
[02:51] <van7hu> is there a channel for networking discussion on freenode?
[02:52] <rww> NictraSavios: if "Ubuntu support will disown you for" doing something, perhaps you shouldn't be suggesting it in an Ubuntu support channel ;P
[02:52] <Nomadicus> pfifo; ok, once I install them, I build the driver package again then try to install correct?
[02:52] <rww> van7hu: ##networking
[02:52] <mahfrk> pfifo: yes. i installed and done make clean. but now the output http://pastebin.com/35uHWDWR
[02:52] <van7hu> thanks rww
[02:52] <pfifo> Nomadicus, you might need a few other packages, installing is alot more complicated
[02:52] <NictraSavios> rww: Oh dont worry, i dont really care who hates me :) I'm alredy banned from #linuxmint because i stole there tools, put em in ubuntu :P... LMAO.
[02:53] <NictraSavios> Anyway, bye.
[02:53] <Nomadicus> l_r: record it now works.
[02:53] <r1za> есть русские?
[02:53] <r1za> можете в ЛС помочь
[02:53] <l_r> Nomadicus, is there anything for the gnome desktop?
[02:54] <l_r> Nomadicus, does recorditnow does zoom by itself or needs compiz?

[02:55] <dd214> Nomadicus roger that, I've been running LNX for years as a firewall, "Smoothwall" or "IPCop", but never as a primary workstation.  Since virtualization, I've been able to make that change.. esp since trying out LNX (Mandrake, RedHat.. desktops when I tried them in since 1995).. but this Maverick is the sweetest thing I've ever seen
[02:55] <r1za> no im ban for russian canale
[02:55] <Nomadicus> pfifo: well . . . I have already been at it a couple of days . . . I might as well keep on trying.  Perhaps someone on #linux could provide some guidance.
[02:55] <DrArkaneX> I let my momma run Ubuntu, it's that good
[02:55] <pfifo> mahfrk, thet isnt the same error :) that one is libsdl-image1.2-dev and i bet you the next one is libsdl-ttf2.0-dev and libsdl-gfx1.2-dev after that so might as well oneliner it ;)
[02:56] <rww> r1za: #ubuntu is English-language only.  I tried changing telinit 5 so gdm3 starts but runlevel keeps saying N 2
[02:56] <softcoder> but after install, at startup it hangs
[02:56] <pfifo> oneliner, ohh wow, sorry
[02:57] <oneliner> heh, nevermind, its in the namesake so its ok ;)
[02:57] <softcoder> just sits there after it says checking battery state [OK]
[02:57] <softcoder> (i press esc at load screen to see console)
[02:57] <softcoder> any ideas what i can do?
[02:57] <Nomadicus> l_r: Take a look at this: [  http://recorditnow.sourceforge.net/index.html ].  I have been using it.
[02:57] <pfifo> id hate to be named sudo or apt
[02:58] <Blue1> pfifo: or yum
[02:58] <l_r> Nomadicus, do you have compiz installed?
[02:58] <pfifo> Blue1, id never get highlighted, not in any fedora chans
[02:59] <softcoder> anyone?
[02:59] <stOrmBlast>     /MSG NiCK INFO stOrmBlast
[02:59] <chubb16> just switched over to xubuntu-desktop, cleaned out the ubuntu packages and reinstalling what i use now...
[02:59] <Nomadicus> DrArkaneX: I put my mammy on Ubuntu also.  She loves it.  It is great to get the folks involved!
[02:59] <softcoder> my primary reason to get 11.04 is that I'm an author for the open source RTS megaglest
[02:59] <softcoder> and I just want to esnure it works ok on there
[03:00] <rww> softcoder: /join #ubuntu+1 for natty discussion and support
[03:00] <softcoder> ok
[03:00] <Nomadicus> pfifo: no doubt . . .  X is a MUGG!
[03:00] <itilious> are there any remot desktop options that are much more friendly for a "non-heavy" 3d computer?
[03:00] <itilious> my laptop can't keep up with the vnc connection and it used to not be this way with previous versions of ubuntu 10.10
[03:00] <townes> I hooked my usb up to my comp; I've used it for quite a while but yesterday it decided to be read only...anyway, I typed in some commands to make read and write...it would for about 5 seconds allow me to do something then go back to read only...any ideas?
[03:01] <Aftermath> do i need anything installed to do smb://<IP_ADDRESS>/Download in terminal/
[03:01] <pfifo> itilious, ssh is perfect for that
[03:01] <quentusrex> Anyone know how to disable the 'pretty' boot logo?
[03:01] <Nomadicus>  l_r: Yeah, RecordItNow is able to capture all the compiz effects.
[03:01] <quentusrex> I want to watch as each service is started.
[03:01] <Ben64> Aftermath: i don't think smb://* would ever do anything in terminal
[03:01] <quentusrex> and when a disk check is done, I actually want to see the statistics.
[03:01] <pfifo> quentusrex, remove 'splash' from the kernel line
[03:01] <townes> pardon me, I meant to type *psp. I'm not sure if it's psp specific or what (any other time a usb device was read only I could change it and it didn't switch back within 5 secs)
[03:01] <quentusrex> thanks pfifo
[03:01] <Khisanth> itilious: are you connecting to or from the laptop?
[03:01] <mahfrk> pfifo: now http://pastebin.com/C0JxvtG0
[03:02] <Nomadicus> softcoder: What was your inquisition?
[03:02] <Aftermath> Im doing it in a run dialogue sorry ben64
[03:02] <l_r> Nomadicus, i meant to ask: does the zoom feature require compiz to work with recorditnow?
[03:02] <Aftermath> http://lifehacker.com/#!288033/mount-a-windows-shared-folder-in-linux
[03:02] <Aftermath> is what i am trying
[03:02] <itilious> Khisanth, yes
[03:02] <pfifo> mahfrk, libsdl-mixer1.2-dev
[03:03] <itilious> the laptop has onboard video and can't keep up with remote desktop use
[03:03] <Ben64> Aftermath: thats from 2007
[03:03] <Ben64> Aftermath: you could just go to Places -> Network
[03:03] <Aftermath> i know but i assumed it still worked
[03:03] <Nomadicus>  l_r: I don't know, it does work though.
[03:03] <Aftermath> Im on xfce, not gnome
[03:04] <Aftermath> i guess ill switch back to gnome
[03:05] <brightspark> How can I remove old keyboard layouts from the menu that shows up when I click my picture at the login screen?
[03:05] <itilious> i just install x11 and it seems to run smoother tho
[03:05] <Khisanth> usually you already have x11 if you are using vnc ...
[03:06] <itilious> Khisanth, does x11 come with 10.10?
[03:06] <itilious> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=45565&highlight=remote+desktop
[03:06] <itilious> thats where i got the guide from to do this
[03:07] <Jordan_U> itilious: Don't use "x11" as a shorthand for "x11vnc". They are very different things.
[03:07] <RealOp> should my swap partition be a logical or extended partition ??????
[03:07] <yeqiang> what's this?
[03:07] <itilious> my mistake
[03:07] <townes> my usb device insists on being read only no matter how many times I try changing it. for a few seconds it will revert or at least appear to revert back to read and write, but then it becomes read only again. I tested it out on a windows machine; it works like it has always worked... anyone else exp this prob before?
[03:07] <quentusrex> pfifo, where is that kernel line? it isn't in /boot/grub/menu.lst any more.
[03:08] <rww> quentusrex: /etc/default/grub
[03:08] <rww> quentusrex: run sudo update-grub when you're done editing it
[03:08] <Jordan_U> RealOp: It can be either logical or primary.
[03:08] <yeqiang> how many
[03:08] <pfifo> quentusrex, in grub2 its /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[03:08] <itilious> is it possible to have x11vnc server run a script upon user connection?
[03:08] <metroid1> can usb-creator use dvd iso's or only cd's?
[03:08] <RealOp> Jordan_U, I understand that but
[03:08] <rww> pfifo: changes to /boot/grub/grub.cfg are overwritten on kernel upgrade or other invocations of update-grub
[03:08] <RealOp> Jordan_U, the default setup is via 'extended' part.
[03:09] <RealOp> Jordan_U, honestly whats the diff when using a extended partitions?
[03:09] <townes> =/
[03:09] <rww> RealOp: an extended partition is a container for one or more logical partitions.
[03:09] <yeqiang> ?
[03:09] <yeqiang> ?
[03:09] <rww> yeqiang: #ubuntu is the technical support channel for Ubuntu Linux.
[03:09] <RealOp> rww,  ah ok ty
[03:09] <pfifo> rww, yeah i know, but I always just change it there, never had any problems as it gets formatted on reinstall anyway.
[03:10] <yeqiang> 没人用中文？
[03:10] <quentusrex> rww, I don't see splash in that file. I'm trying to get back to the verbose boot up.
[03:10] <rww> yeqiang: specifically, it's the English-language technical support channel for Ubuntu Linux.
[03:10] <Jordan_U> !cn | yeqiang
[03:10] <yeqiang> ok
[03:10] <rww> quentusrex: It's on the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line for me.
[03:11] <ghostrabbit> can any one help me  whis hardy
[03:11] <mahfrk> pfifo: now http://pastebin.com/vzdex0GK anything wrong? waht to do next?
[03:11] <ghostrabbit> i have 2 qwests
[03:13] <Jordan_U> pfifo: When helping others please don't recommend editing the grub.cfg directly as most users want their changes to be persistant and are using update-grub to keep their grub.cfg up to date (the default in Ubuntu) rather than writing it manually.
[03:13] <pfifo> mahfrk, type one final make and then `echo $?` if it spits out "0" then your ready to play. you can just run it from that folder unless you want to install it.
[03:13] <pfifo> Jordan_U, ok
[03:14] <ghostrabbit> nabbend erst mal

[03:15] <brightspark> How can I remove old keyboard layouts from the menu that shows up when I click my picture at the login screen?
[03:15] <itilious> is it possible to have a vnc viewer have less display resources sent over connection?
[03:15] <pfifo> mahfrk, `echo $?` you have to do it directly after make, it will tell you what error code make exited with, 0 is no error
[03:16] <townes> k... was trying to run the commands again to see if it actually goes back to read and write. I'm assuming this is an error. "chmod: changing permissions of `/media/psp': Read-only file systemchmod: changing permissions of `/media/psp': Read-only file system"
[03:16] <townes> oops, didn't mean to paste that twice
[03:16] <Khisanth> itilious: it could be made to require less bandwidth
[03:16] <mahfrk> pfifo: yes. it is returning zero. now how to run the application? is it installed now?
[03:16] <Khisanth> itilious: it depends on what you are willing to give up :)
[03:16] <townes> anyway, apart from formatting it (that seems to be a really popular answer on forums) what could be done to set this device back to read and write?
[03:17] <pfifo> mahfrk, its not installed, but if you only have it for personal use you dont have to install it, you can just run it from there
[03:18] <Nomadicus> pfifo: for some reason I don't seem to be able to find kernel-headers for  kernel 2.6.33-29-realtime (x86_64) or build-essentials, perhaps I should just take a break and come back to this in a while.
[03:18] <townes> I'm pulling my hair looking at the ubuntu forums. I can't find a single thread describing this issue that actually has a fix
[03:19] <pfifo> Nomadicus, sounds like you need a apt-get update, maybe its called linux-headers
[03:19] <Nomadicus> We can lose our minds together . . . right now . . . right here!
[03:19] <townes> =p
[03:19] <townes> getting there mate
[03:19] <rww> Nomadicus: it's called build-essential

[03:20] <pfifo> mahfrk, im a programmer
[03:20] <mahfrk> pfifo: okay. how can i identify it from the make output?
[03:21] <utunbu> hi
[03:21] <townes> no one ?
[03:21] <pfifo> mahfrk, the output will say your missing whatever.h and you find out what package whatever.h comes in
[03:21] <utunbu> i installed windows 7 for an app that i cant get WINE to start, when i did i thought they would have a bootloader that can load a previous install of 10.10
[03:21] <utunbu> how do i get back to my ubuntu?
[03:22] <Nomadicus> It appears as though build-essential is already the newest version.

[03:23] <pfifo> mahfrk, i usually resort to googleing whatever.h but after 5 years, they are all memorized
[03:24] <Nomadicus> pfifo: where can  kernel-headers be found?
[03:24] <pfifo> Nomadicus, apt-cache search headers
[03:24] <apocaliptica61> somene know why i can use my wireless cars in ubunto via virtuelbox??
[03:24] <rahul_> can autocad run on ubuntu wine s/w???
[03:24] <Nomadicus> Interesting?
[03:25] <pfifo> apocaliptica61, you could do it via vmware as well bbut you would have to do alot of configuring of your network by hand
[03:25] <brightspark> How can I remove old keyboard layouts from the menu that shows up when I click my picture at the login screen?
[03:26] <Jordan_U> mahfrk: You almost never need to install something from source: http://www.playdeb.net/software/Red%20Eclipse
[03:26] <apocaliptica61> i was on vmware and someone told me that i need to do it under virtuelbox
[03:26] <JoeRitchie> it doesnt matter
[03:26] <JoeRitchie> windows 7 is better anyways
[03:26] <pfifo> apocaliptica61, its alot easier todo it like that since its all donw for you automatically
[03:26] <hydrox24> brightspark: probably you can just delete them from System>preferences>keyboard and then under "layouts"
[03:27] <plight> Is there an IRW equivilent in Maverick's integrated IR module?
[03:27] <apocaliptica61> you mean via virtualbox?
[03:27] <pfifo> apocaliptica61, thats right
[03:27] <JoeRitchie> hello guys
[03:27] <apocaliptica61> i am on virtual box but both card are wired
[03:27] <apocaliptica61> even my wirless
[03:27] <JoeRitchie> i have a question
[03:28] <Jordan_U> JoeRitchie: Just ask it :)
[03:28] <apocaliptica61> it apear like word
[03:28] <apocaliptica61> wird
[03:28] <brightspark> hydrox24,  not for my session but the little menu below the password field at login.
[03:28] <JoeRitchie> whoa
[03:28] <JoeRitchie> why did the line adressed to me just appear in orange
[03:28] <JoeRitchie> ?
[03:28] <pfifo> apocaliptica61, thats right, vbox is VIRTUAL hardware
[03:29] <Jordan_U> apocaliptica61: Virtual machines use virtual hardware. The cards that you see within a guest running virtualbox are not real physical hardware.
[03:29] <cxo> JoeRitchie, Intense. Isn't it.
[03:29] <apocaliptica61> so what i need to do to see it like wireless card
[03:29] <apocaliptica61> i need to use it for aircrakc-ng
[03:29] <JoeRitchie> just trolling
[03:29] <pfifo> apocaliptica61, it cant do that
[03:29] <JoeRitchie> anyways
[03:30] <JoeRitchie> know any good channel for this?
[03:30] <van7hu> hello
[03:30]  * cxo trawls for trolls
[03:30] <apocaliptica61> so i need to install ubunto on hard drive no?
[03:30] <apocaliptica61> no via virtual machin
[03:30] <Jordan_U> !guidelines | JoeRitchie
[03:30] <pfifo> apocaliptica61, if all you want todo is run airocrack, you can get the airocrack livecd
[03:30] <JoeRitchie> k am out
[03:30] <JoeRitchie> bye
[03:31] <apocaliptica61> really i dont understand what you want to say
[03:32] <pfifo> apocaliptica61, if your intention is to install ubuntu and use it for airocrack, then you need to install ubuntu. if you dont want to install ubuntu, you can just run airocrack on a CD
[03:32] <townes> back. I'm still not having any luck making my usb device go back to read/write. any help?
[03:33] <Shubuntu> hello guys, can anyone help me fix a gateway problem with ubuntu 10.10 please? i've installed pptp using this guide and i cannot seem to be able to add the gateway for the private ip: >	http://eran.sandler.co.il/2010/08/30/pptp-vpn-on-ubuntu-10-04-for-your-iphone-ipad/
[03:33] <Stef> Question: (ubuntu 10.04 LTS)
[03:33] <Stef> I've set up OpenSSH and putty which connects fine
[03:34] <rahul_> can i gjve shortcut key for specific file (e.g open office file)???
[03:34] <Stef> but I can't su anymore as i used to when using user/login
[03:34] <townes> the device worked fine a few days ago; it still works fine under windows. however, in ubuntu it refuses to revert back to read/write
[03:34] <toneshifter> sup all
[03:34] <Stef> can I change that setting for OpenSSH key authenticication?
[03:35] <pfifo> apocaliptica61, check here, this will explain it http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=slitaz
[03:35] <brightspark> How can I remove old keyboard layouts from the menu that shows up when I click my picture at the login screen?
[03:35] <Jordan_U> Stef: How are you trying to use su? Remember that for running commands as root you should use 'sudo' as Ubuntu has no root password. Using 'su foo' for switching to some other user 'foo' should work fine though.
[03:35] <townes> I've been through the forums and have been trying every alleged solution I come across, but still nothing. <- frustrated
[03:36] <cxo> even sudo -i
[03:36] <Stef> with my actual config I can login as user ABC and then su to root
[03:36] <Jordan_U> townes: What filesystem? What error do you get when you try to mount it?
[03:36] <Stef> when I use OpenSSH with keys, I can't su...simply ignored
[03:37] <toneshifter> doesn anyone have an idea how to fix grub that doesn't see NTFS partition (fdisk does) grub-update just finds ext and last fat32 (that i told him to mount during instalation)
[03:37] <Jordan_U> Stef: It's normal for su to root to only work from a physical tty. As having a root password set is not supported here though. Why can't you use sudo?
[03:38] <toneshifter> fdisk -l finds them all
[03:38] <Jordan_U> !details | toneshifter
[03:38] <cxo> well there is probably not boot record on the ntfs partition, thats why
[03:39] <Jordan_U> toneshifter: Specifically, you need to be more spcific about what you mean by "doesn't see".
[03:39] <townes> Jordan_U, I believe my device uses fat or fat32, off the top of my head I don't know. I don't get any errors at all when mounting it
[03:39] <utunbu> !grub
[03:39] <Shubuntu> >	hello guys, can anyone help me fix a gateway problem with ubuntu 10.10 please? i've installed pptp using this guide and i cannot seem to be able to add the gateway for the private ip: > http://eran.sandler.co.il/2010/08/30/pptp-vpn-on-ubuntu-10-04-for-your-iphone-ipad/
[03:40] <toneshifter> ubottu: Problem: grub do not show /dev/sda1 on the list, running on lubuntu 10.10, tried right after installation and than after updates and grub-update, on the output i get only the message that he found linux, recovery mode & memtest
[03:40] <toneshifter> Jordan_U don't see means i see the partition at fdisk -l
[03:40] <Jordan_U> townes: Can you check what filesystem it is and try mounting it manually from the terminal and pastebin the output?
[03:40] <townes> yeah, I'll get back to you in a min. need to step outside, but I'll be right back
[03:41] <toneshifter> i just assumed that during installation of lubuntu it will automatically set correct grub.conf
[03:41] <Jordan_U> toneshifter: What OS is in /dev/sda1? What is the output of "sudo os-prober"?
[03:41] <toneshifter> i mean it mounts it without problems but it doesnot show it at grub menu
[03:42] <toneshifter> Jordan_U /dev/sda1 = windows
[03:42] <pfifo> Shubuntu, whaat is the exact problem?
[03:42] <utunbu> when i boot into grub, there are 9 or 10 instances of Ubuntu
[03:42] <utunbu> how do i fix that?
[03:43] <Shubuntu> pfifo: when i create that private static ip and add the gateway as my eth0's gateway, everything goes wrong, i lose internet and i keep locking errors.
[03:43] <zee313> I hav a problem. with my 16GB Kingston Data Traveler. I used it as a bootable using uNetbootin . Now after format my flash  is showing 2 GB Capacity instead of 16 GB???????????????????
[03:43] <toneshifter> utunbu = just edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg manually
[03:44] <edbian> Shubuntu: can you pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces file?  (is that what you're editing?)
[03:44] <toneshifter> Jordan_U cant check os-prober i worked on this laptop remotely
[03:44] <pfifo> Shubuntu, can you pastebin these errors?
[03:44] <edbian> zee313: You probably just created a 2Gb partition.  You can only store stuff in a partition.  Open gparted and look at it
[03:44] <taglass> zee313:  reparition the usb key with Disk Utility
[03:44] <toneshifter> just trying to set a plan for tommorow what to do at all
[03:45] <Shubuntu> edbian: yes, i'm editing /etc/network/interfaces and it's as simple as i described, in ubuntu 10.04 it was working just fine
[03:45] <Shubuntu> so i'm guessing it's a 10.10 issue
[03:45] <edbian> utunbu: there is a package for each kernel in synaptic.  Remove the ones you don't want.  Do NOT remove them all
[03:46] <edbian> Shubuntu: what errors are you getting?
[03:46] <toneshifter> any ideas ?
[03:46] <Jordan_U> toneshifter: If Windows isn't listed at boot, it means it wasn't detected by os-prober. If it wasn't detected by os-prober then that almost always means that you don't actually have a bootable Windows install. os-prober searches for files that are needed for Windows to boot, if they are missing then Windows can't boot no matter what you do with grub.
[03:46] <Shubuntu> pfifo: lockfile creation failed: exceeded maximum number of lock attempts
[03:47] <Shubuntu> edbian: as i explained i will lose all internet connection when i set the privateip's gateway to be eth0's gateway
[03:47] <Jordan_U> toneshifter: The other possibility is that your Windows partition couldn't be mounted properly for some reason (so os-prober couldn't check for the aforementioned files).
[03:47] <edbian> Shubuntu: I'm not sure what is causing the problem
[03:47] <pfifo> Shubuntu, make sure the lock file is writeable? Can you give me more of the output upto that point that really isnt what im looking for
[03:47] <LinuxHack3r> Guest10049: Welcome to Ubuntu!
[03:47] <townes> Jordan_U: okay. it's fat32. when I manually mount it, it doesn't give any ouput
[03:47] <toneshifter> Jordan_U i had an bootable windows install, during installation i did nothing to partition that windows was at, just set partitions for lubuntu at the other partition
[03:47] <Guest10049> ^xthecynic
[03:47] <Shubuntu> pfifo:  no other output
[03:48] <Shubuntu> and guys this is a problem of 10.10
[03:48] <Shubuntu> not 10.04
[03:48] <pfifo> Shubuntu, what command did you run to generate that output?
[03:48] <Shubuntu> i haven't even changed one setting
[03:48] <Jordan_U> toneshifter: Did you delete any partitions recently?
[03:48] <Shubuntu> just upgraded to 10.10
[03:48] <Shubuntu> pfifo: just trying to edit anything
[03:49] <Shubuntu> nano whatever
[03:49] <pfifo> Shubuntu, only in nano?
[03:49] <toneshifter> i did delete second partition (not the one that windows was on) and created a new ones by using that space
[03:49] <LinuxHack3r> thecynic: here I am
[03:49] <thecynic> LinuxHack3r: oh ok
[03:49] <toneshifter> but once again i didnt even touch the partition that windows was on
[03:49] <Shubuntu> root@ark:~# nano /etc/pptpd.conf  gave me: root@ark:~# lockfile creation failed: exceeded maximum number of lock attempts
[03:49] <zaery> According to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3154546 I did ssh -X [my server] and then "firefox -no-remote" and it just complains that I didn't specify a display
[03:50] <edbian> Shubuntu: You already have that file open with another process
[03:50] <toneshifter> its still listed at fdisk -l (and it even have boot) flag
[03:50] <Jordan_U> toneshifter: Was that second partition a small ( 1 GiB or less ) partition labeled "system"?
[03:50] <zaery> How do i get firefox to run on my display, but run on my server?
[03:50] <buttholesurfer> great
[03:50] <Shubuntu> edbian: that only and only and only happens when i do the gateway thing
[03:50] <Jordan_U> toneshifter: Having the boot flag doesn't mean it's bootable.
[03:50] <edbian> zaery: The machine you are on is the client.  The machine firefox is on is the server.  Does the client have a GUI installed?
[03:50] <LinuxHack3r> thecynic: In terminal, you can always use tab to complete things. Once you get the mindset, you can copy, delete, move, install things, etc etc faster in terminal (especially when using tab to autocomplete) faster than you can navigate various GUI's.
[03:50] <Shubuntu> and i lose all internet connection
[03:50] <Shubuntu> i cannot ping anything
[03:50] <zaery> edbian: yup
[03:51] <thecynic> LinuxHack3r: whatever yous ay
[03:51] <edbian> zaery: did you ssh with a capitol X  ?
[03:51] <toneshifter> Jordan_U nope that was a full 30 GB partition, the one with 1GB or less (recovery) still exist to,
[03:51] <edbian> zaery: ssh -X you@computer  ?
[03:51] <zaery> edbian: IIRC, yes, but lemme check
[03:51] <Nomadicus> pfifo: It is still not installing, even after making sure that the  kernel-headers and build-essentials are installed.  I am going to try contacting the maintainers of the realtime kernel.  I am using Lucid now because the same problem plus other driver issues happened with Mavrick using
[03:51] <Nomadicus> . . . Nvidia drivers.
[03:51] <LinuxHack3r> thecynic: Generally everyone here is pretty friendly, if you have any questions they'll be happy to answer
[03:51] <zaery> edbian, yup, "ssh -X<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[03:51] <pfifo> Shubuntu, ok lets back up, you can run a command or script to create this error condition, that is the script I want to see.
[03:52] <thecynic> LinuxHack3r: aight
[03:52] <edbian> zaery: can you run xclock?  (it's a graphical clock app)
[03:52] <Shubuntu> pfifo: let's forget about the lock ok?
[03:52] <Shubuntu> you're missing the point
[03:52] <Shubuntu> this is a networking problem
[03:52] <Shubuntu> it's a routing problem
[03:52] <Shubuntu> it's the stupid 10.10
[03:52] <zaery> edbian: "Error: Can't open display: "
[03:52] <Shubuntu> i swear i haven't changed a thing in the settings
[03:53] <townes> as a side note, running gksudo nautilus doesn't allow me to write to the usb device either, nor do changing the permissions seem to help any
[03:53] <Jordan_U> toneshifter: So first I would try mounting the partition to see if you get any errors. If mount complains that it was not cleanly unmounted then you need to either run chkdsk from a windows install CD or add an entry to boot Windows manually to the end of /etc/grub.d/40_custom and run chkdsk from your windows system (then boot Ubuntu again and "sudo update-grub" should add a Windows entry automatically and you can remove your manual one).
[03:53] <edbian> zaery: look on the server in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[03:53] <edbian> zaery: There is a property 'X11Forwarding'  is it set to yes or no?
[03:53] <pfifo> Shubuntu, i think you should maybe take a break, come back later. You seem to be a bit upset by this.
[03:53] <zaery> edbian: I just realised, my server is 10.04 and my client is 10.10, would that be a problem?
[03:53] <edbian> zaery: You can check the file using nano and ssh
[03:53] <edbian> zaery: That shouldn't matter
[03:53] <natalie_> This room doesn't involve Natty yet, does it?
[03:54] <edbian> natalie_: not until the 28th
[03:54] <toneshifter> tried it already, it mounts perfectly, ok will try it :) thanks for support
[03:54] <pentester123> GRE: bad checksum from pppd?????
[03:54] <edbian> zaery: I x forward every day.  I've very confident we can get this working
[03:54] <natalie_> Would anyone know where to go for issues regarding Natty? IRC specifically.
[03:54] <edbian> natalie_: #ubuntu+1
[03:54] <Shubuntu> pfifo: i've been dealing with this for the past 36 hours
[03:54] <natalie_> Awesome, thanks!
[03:55] <edbian> natalie_: no problem
[03:55] <zaery> edbian: X11Forwarding is on
[03:55] <townes> Shubuntu, you should get some sleep mate
[03:55] <Shubuntu> yes i'm upset cause there isn't an oz of help on google, 10,10 has been out for ages yet they don't have one decent explanation of how they changed this
[03:55] <Jordan_U> toneshifter: If there is no problem mounting the partition, and "sudo os-prober" still doesn't list windows, then run boot info script as explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 to help figure out what files are missing and ask in ##windows about how to restore them.
[03:55] <KXTwo> Hey I have a scripting question outputting error if anyone is willing to help
[03:56] <edbian> zaery: If I ssh into my own machine without the -X flag I get 'Error: Can't open display:'  That is the error you're getting right?
[03:56] <toneshifter> roger that :]
[03:57] <toneshifter> one more time thank you for support
[03:57] <edbian> zaery: Can you copy/paste the command you're running on the client?  (you can omit / mask hostname if you want)
[03:57] <toneshifter> will report tommorow
[03:57] <zee313> edbian: and taglass: i am thankful to you both. I have solved my problem using gparted
[03:57] <edbian> zee313: awesome
[03:57] <Portocent> hello i'm new on ubuntu, some body talk spanish
[03:57] <zaery> edbian: xclock says can't open display, but firefox says no display specified, I'm using "ssh -X<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[03:58] <Stef> I have a user ABC which can SSH into ubuntu 10.04 lts with username/login and then change the session to root by using su.
[03:58] <Stef>
[03:58] <Stef> Now I established an OpenSSH connection with key authenticication and I can't use su anymore to switch over to root session. Is that a config of OpenSSH? I don't want the user ABC to have sudo rights.
[03:58] <FloodBot2> Stef: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:58] <KXTwo> if I put: let ag='ls -d [a-g]* | wc -l' into my script, it works great, but when there are no files begging within the field a-g I get the error message, which id rather not have displayed, I thought 2>> /bin/null would make it go away but its not working
[03:59] <seaoftea> any here dual boot ubuntu and another linux flavor with grub2? I'm dual booting ubuntu 10.10 and fedora 15 but I have to into ubuntu and run grub-mkconfig to get it to recognize new fedora kernels
[03:59] <seaoftea> also the fedora splash screen doesn't show up nor does it properly label fedora kernels
[03:59] <edbian> zaery: hang on
[04:00] <townes> Jordan_U, the heart of it is that the device, for whatever reason, won't allow me to change to read and write.
[04:00] <taglass> seaoftea: I do.  I install each distro's grub to the distros partition to avoid that problem.  It does however make you go through 2 grub menus to boot.
[04:00] <MaRk-I> seaoftea: ubuntu uses grub2 and fedora grub afaik... maybe is better if you chainload fedoras grub instead of adding the stanzas directly into grub2
[04:01] <quuxman> still hacking at this problem. I would just reinstall but I can't figure out how to get ubuntu on to a USB drive (don't have a CD drive)
[04:01] <raido> zaery: You do have a window manager on the client machine too right? You have to have that because the client is still the X "server"
[04:01] <quuxman> laptop won't boot entirely. It fails with: mounted-dev: main process (324) exited with status 1
[04:01] <seaoftea> that's what the fedora ppl's say
[04:01] <quuxman> or something like that
[04:01] <seaoftea> meh
[04:01] <KXTwo> quuxman, just download the live cd and use the usb installer
[04:01] <zaery> raido: yup, i'm in xchat on the client right now :)
[04:01] <edbian> zaery: try running shh -v -X user@host  (so it gives errors and it will say stuff about x forwarding)
[04:02] <Starminn> How do you listen to radio stations? For instance, in Banshee, how do I obtain the stream URL to play it in Banshee?
[04:02] <KXTwo> if I put: let ag='ls -d [a-g]* | wc -l' into my script, it works great, but when there are no files begging within the field a-g I get the error message, which id rather not have displayed, I thought 2>> /bin/null would make it go away but its not working
[04:02] <Jordan_U> townes: Can you pastebin the output of "sudo mount /dev/sdXY /mnt/; sudo touch /mnt/test; dmesg"? (obviously replacing 'XY' and unmounting the partition first)
[04:02] <pfifo> townes, just as a thought there isnt like a write protection switch on the device?
[04:03] <townes> pfifo, that was what i was hoping for...alas..not the case
[04:03] <townes> Jordan_U, one moment
[04:03] <quuxman> KXTwo: on the other hand, if I knew what package was broken, I could simply reinstall/reconfigure it. I can chroot in to the system
[04:04] <Sadin56> im having problems with installing Ubuntu 10.10 im at the screen where it asks who are you, entering my name username and desired password and what not, after entering all the information it asked me the forward button stays unclickable can anyone help me resolve this and finish the installation?
[04:04] <seaoftea> I'm gonna make them work together IDK why ubuntu and fedora can't be friends
[04:04] <rww> Sadin56: make the username lower-case
[04:04] <KXTwo> quuxman,  I dont think I could help you there except to booting to an old install, I know ubuntu keeps the previous 3 or so at least on my laptop.
[04:04] <quuxman> KXTwo: none of them work
[04:05] <Jordan_U> Sadin56: Your username needs to be all lowercase.
[04:05] <edbian> Sadin56: use all lowercase username
[04:05] <edbian> Maybe we should tell him some more!  haah
[04:05] <KXTwo> quuxman, id boot from usb then and see if you can fix, or really just do a fresh install to be honest
[04:05] <Sadin56> :D thanks lol i completely forgot LOL
[04:06] <KXTwo> seriously no help with my script! I always have the most problems getting help in here lol
[04:06] <zaery> edbian: "/usr/bin/xauth:  error in locking authority file /home/zaery/.Xauthority" could that be the problem
[04:07] <mickster04> KXTwo: isn't there a bash channel about?
[04:07] <edbian> zaery: possibly.  Where did that come from?  The client or the remote machine?
[04:07] <raido> zaery: did you leave a running x session on the server machine under your username?
[04:07] <edbian> zaery: Did you!
[04:07] <edbian> ?!?
[04:08] <KXTwo> mickster04,  thank you I didnt know about that!
[04:08] <KXTwo> it seems kind of dead in there though
[04:08] <zaery> edbian, raido, actually, i might've
[04:08] <zaery> well, that'd explain it.....
[04:08] <MaRk-I> seaoftea: you can make it work if you add the correct uuids for the kernels the problem is when you update fedora your grub2 won't change and have to do basically 2 grub updates
[04:08] <edbian> zaery: yes it would... hahaha
[04:09] <raido> zaery: not necessarily, cause I can do that and it works for me, but if you can, try rebooting the server machine so you wont have a x session running and try again
[04:09] <jtannenbaum> I have been getting stuff like this on my laptop: http://i.imgur.com/hyjY9.png
[04:10] <zaery> now, If i did leave a x session running, I would have a virtual machine running on that, would "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" stop x, and not the virtual machine?
[04:10] <edbian> jtannenbaum: bug
[04:10] <edbian> jtannenbaum: nice background
[04:10] <jtannenbaum> honestly something sees really screwed up with the graphic manager
[04:10] <jtannenbaum> thanks
[04:10] <jtannenbaum> if you help me fix my graphics in general I'll link you
[04:10] <hiexpo> i got a read only file trapeed in here and can't get rid of it  /root/.local/share/Trash/files/flash/boot/extlinux/extlinux.sys
[04:10] <Jordan_U> KXTwo: Try asking in #bash, but before asking anything there check the guide and FAQ in the #bash channel topic. Also be sure to state up front that you're working on homework (as you have here).
[04:11] <raido> zaery: is the VM running in a virtual term on your user account?
[04:11] <townes> Jordan_U, http://pastebin.com/GetmiDxk (not a rocket scientist  but that doesn't look good)
[04:11] <Jordan_U> hiexpo: What is the output of "lsattr /root/.local/share/Trash/files/flash/boot/extlinux/extlinux.sys"?
[04:11] <edbian> jtannenbaum: You'll link me?  I don't need links.  I'm up to my ears in links over here.
[04:12] <zaery> raido: it's running in virtualbox
[04:12] <raido> zaery: did you start the vm from your X session
[04:12] <zaery> raido, on the server, yes
[04:12] <hiexpo> Jordan_U, ----i------------e- /root/.local/share/Trash/files/flash/boot/extlinux/extlinux.sys
[04:13] <edbian> Jordan_U: again with that crazy thing!
[04:13] <rww> Jordan_U saves the day.
[04:13] <jrib> edbian: heh...
[04:13] <jtannenbaum> I'll direct connect to you and send it to you if you want
[04:13] <jtannenbaum> I'll hand-deliver it on any electronic meidum
[04:13] <jtannenbaum> medium
[04:13] <raido> zaery: then you will lose it. FYI, I run virtual box VM's from the command line as another user to avoid these issues
[04:13] <van7hu> !man|tasksel
[04:13] <jtannenbaum> if you can fix this and the surrounding issues xD
[04:13] <edbian> jtannenbaum: You'll send what to me?
[04:13] <van7hu> !man tasksel
[04:13] <jtannenbaum> the background!
[04:13] <pfifo> townes, unmount run dosfsck on the filesystems
[04:14] <rww> hiexpo: chattr -i /root/.local/share/Trash/files/flash/boot/extlinux/extlinux.sys
[04:14] <edbian> jtannenbaum: hahaha.  I have a screenshot of it already!  Turn compiz off and the bugs will go away :)
[04:14] <edbian> jtannenbaum: Or use an older version of Ubuntu
[04:14] <zaery> raido: yeah, i was going to get that set up, but then i found out the hard way that some of my ports are blocked, so I can't ssh into my virtual machine right now
[04:14] <rww> hiexpo: erm, with sudo in front of it
[04:15] <natalie_> My windows stutter when I move them with compiz enabled. Can anyone assist with this problem?
[04:15] <hiexpo> rww, still there
[04:15] <raido> zaery: if its not working on anything, its ok to kill it
[04:15] <rww> hiexpo: tried deleting it again?
[04:15] <hiexpo> let me see
[04:16] <KXTwo> Jordan_U, Ive gotten it taken care of and thank you.  Yes it is homework but it is above and beyond what was required AND my teacher has no issues with getting help in any way shape or form so I typically dont mention that it is hw or people think im trying to get them to do work for me
[04:16] <hiexpo> rww, thanks
[04:16] <rww> KXTwo: You are trying to get them to do work for you :|
[04:16] <townes> pfifo, okay... I'll be back once that's done
[04:17] <townes> pfifo, would I just dosfsck /dev/sdXY ?
[04:17] <pfifo> townes, yes, makes certian its not mounted
[04:18] <townes> alright. appreciate it. be back when I'm back mate
[04:18] <pfifo> ok
[04:19] <mizan_> #twilio
[04:19] <Nephlim> evening
[04:19] <natalie_> anyone available to help with a compiz/nvidia issue?
[04:21] <edbian> natalie_: Ubuntu uses new software.  Because of that some things are buggy.  The only way to get ride of these bugs is to update to the newest version of Ubuntu when it comes out (and trade for new bugs) or use an older version (or different distro that uses older software) to have less bugs period.
[04:21] <hiexpo> rww, so what was the i flag with chattr
[04:21] <stimoceiver> so... im playing with ubuntu desktop linux after messing with fedora on and off for a while, nice distro, i have an nvidia video card and i notice that the various available video players all seem to use different methods to put full motion video on the screen
[04:21] <edbian> natalie_: Actually fixing the bug you're seeing probably takes experienced system programming skill
[04:21] <stimoceiver> also, i understand the difference betwen vdpau and vaapi...
[04:21] <stimoceiver> and what i notice is
[04:21] <rww> hiexpo: the immutable extended attribute. "immutable" means "not changing"
[04:22] <townes> eek. pfifo, I'm getting 'fat32, lfn open: no such file or dir'
[04:22] <hiexpo> rww, oh ok
[04:22] <natalie_> edbian: That's understandable. It's not a make or break thing, just a small bug. It probably only affects my machine in the end. I'll try a new video card in there later and see if it helps. Thanks for your answers. :)
[04:22] <fizyplankton> if i have 10.04 and i go to update manager and update to 10.10 and i decide i dont like it, can i downgrade back to 10.04 easily?
[04:23] <stimoceiver> the only setting that really works in full screen mode that displays full motion video with any fidelity, is mplayer using "xv (1 - NV05 Video Blitter)"
[04:23] <edbian> natalie_: Having said that.  You can try different compiz settings (try to figure out which plugin is causing the bug) and different nvidia drivers
[04:23] <Ben64> fizyplankton: i doubt it
[04:23] <stimoceiver>  /s/mplayer/smplayer
[04:23] <oscargot> Is there any way to change the resolution of the command line terminals when you press ctrl+alt+F1?
[04:23] <fizyplankton> if necessary, i have enuf harddrive space unpartitioned to make a backup of my partition
[04:23] <pfifo> townes, perhaps try using your windoows disk checking tool, im not really sure how but you seem to know your way around it.
[04:23] <Ben64> fizyplankton: well if you back up everything then yeah
[04:23] <fizyplankton> awesome
[04:23] <mickster04> oscargot: not without changing buffer settings and rebooting
[04:24] <mickster04> try !tty
[04:24] <mickster04> !ttyl
[04:24] <mickster04> !tty
[04:24] <stimoceiver> and im trying to understand, what mode is 'xv 1 - NV05 Video Blitter" - does xv mean vaapi ?
[04:24] <mickster04> tada
[04:24] <oscargot> mickster04, thanks >: D
[04:24] <Explodinpiglets> helloe
[04:25] <Explodinpiglets> how come xkill doesn't work?
[04:25] <Explodinpiglets> It has been 5 minutes since I xkilled my fireo
[04:25] <Explodinpiglets> it still hasn't closed
[04:25] <stimoceiver> i've also disabled frame dropping... videos look soooooooo much smoother in this mode whether fullscreen or windowed. every last other mode, fullscreen is flickery, choppy, or worse, and ultimately displeasing to the eye for watching a full length movie
[04:26] <edbian> stimoceiver: How do you disable frame dropping?
[04:26] <DaPenguin> Explodinpiglets: try ps aux | grep <appname>, then kill the pid
[04:26] <pfifo> stimoceiver, sounds like mplayer
[04:26] <Explodinpiglets> I have a revolutionary idea that you guys OBVIOUSLY haven't thought of before.
[04:26] <townes> pfifo, okay. I appreciate your help. take care
[04:26] <stimoceiver> edbian: preferences - Performance
[04:27] <pfifo> townes, sure
[04:27] <edbian> stimoceiver: in mplayer?
[04:27] <fizyplankton> since i dont want to reboot my machine to back up my partition, if i create a new partition and copy / over to it, will that make a backup good enough to revert from 10.10 bakc to 10.04?
[04:27] <Explodinpiglets> How about you guys make sre your "advice" actually works before you give it?
[04:27] <mickster04> !who
[04:27] <mickster04> !volunteer | Explodinpiglets
[04:27] <stimoceiver> pfifo: it is mplayer, but what i dont get is, it also lists xv (0 - NV17 Video Texture)
[04:27] <mickster04> Explodinpiglets: eitherway choill out
[04:27] <stimoceiver> edbian: i installed the SMPlayer front end
[04:27] <edbian> stimoceiver: thanks
[04:28] <mickster04> Explodinpiglets: non of us are paid for this
[04:28] <Explodinpiglets> Excuse me? mickster04
[04:28] <stimoceiver> pfifo: and the thing is that xv (0 - NV17 Video Texture) is so much crappier than xv (1 - NV05 Video Blitter)
[04:28] <stimoceiver> pfifo: that it has me wondering if it is possible to set this globally somehow for other video players
[04:28] <mickster04> Explodinpiglets: ps aux | grep firefox in terminal, then kill the pid
[04:28] <mickster04> !kill
[04:28] <pfifo> stimoceiver, basically just the lib used to display the picture, personally -vo sdl works great for me
[04:29] <stimoceiver> pfifo: yah sdl was decent too but still somewhat flickery on my nvidia card, xv (0 - NV17 Video Texture) was also flickery
[04:29] <rww> Explodinpiglets: My scrollback has a noticible lack of people advising you to use xkill, so I'm not sure which advice you're talking about.
[04:29] <stimoceiver> pfifo: but xv (1 - NV05 Video Blitter) is frigging FLAWLESS
[04:30] <Explodinpiglets> it was several days ago rww
[04:30] <pfifo> stimoceiver, there isnt a standard way to play vidoes in linux so at this point you cant set anything like that globally.
[04:30] <stimoceiver> pfifo: sure, but doesnt xv use vaapi?
[04:31] <stimoceiver> pfifo: like, i wouldnt mind being able to duplicate this kind of performance in VLC player...
[04:31] <Sadin56> i just finished my install for ubuntu 10.10 it told me to restart and i turned it back on and nothing happend im going to attempt to install again...
[04:31] <pfifo> stimoceiver, im not sure. i think vaapi has its own option
[04:31] <rww> Explodinpiglets: not seeing it. perhaps you use multiple nicknames. Regardless, as mickster04 said, the people in #ubuntu are volunteers, and not treating them snarkily tends to be useful.
[04:31] <clayguc> on 10.01 the wireless symbol is gone, how do i bring it back?> i can't get online in ubuntu *(im in xp now)
[04:31] <stimoceiver> pfifo: i didnt see a vaapi option, what i see is a vdpau option, but vdpau is redundant for me since i loaded the VDPAU backend package for vaapi
[04:32] <pfifo> stimoceiver, have you checkd vlc command line switches, i think you can set it xv
[04:32] <rww> Explodinpiglets: and as DaPenguin said, kill it. If that doesn't work, kill -9 it. Your desktop environment may have a graphical tool for doing so; I wouldn't know.
[04:32] <stimoceiver> pfifo: yah i looked at it but im not seeing a way to enumerate these different xv options that SMplayer is showing
[04:32] <clayguc> on 10.01 the wireless symbol is gone, how do i bring it back?> i can't get online in ubuntu *(im in xp now)
[04:33] <pfifo> stimoceiver, then its probbally in a config file (possibly a non-existant one)
[04:33] <pfifo> stimoceiver, vlc copied most of mplayer so it should be around somewhere...
[04:34] <stimoceiver> pfifo: well, im trying to look further into this, the smplayer gui lists 3 different xv modes: xv, xv (0 - NV17 Video Texture), and xv (1 - NV05 Video Blitter), in addition to vdpau
[04:34] <quuxman> I think my problem is this used to be a debian system
[04:34] <stimoceiver> pfifo: and the performance difference for fullscreen between the 4 of them is nontrivial. =)
[04:35] <mickster04> quuxman: you have a problem, how long ago did you mention it?
[04:35] <quuxman> And when I installed mysql, it depended on upstart, which conflicted with sysvinit, which broke it
[04:35] <quuxman> ubuntu doesn't use the sysvinit package
[04:35] <rww> mickster04: about half an hour ago >.>
[04:35] <mickster04> !mysql | quuxman
[04:35] <rww> quuxman: How did you get from Debian to Ubuntu? A reinstall or something else
[04:35] <quuxman> mickster04: ?
[04:36] <pfifo> stimoceiver, thats expected, they are all using different methods
[04:36] <quuxman> rww: by modifying my sources.list
[04:36] <stimoceiver> pfifo: actually i might have found the setting for vlc... there is a "xvideo" entry under the "output modules" option tree under video
[04:36] <rww> quuxman: That's not a supported action by either us or Debian, and is liable to hose your system. Reinstall.
[04:36] <mickster04> quuxman: why didn't you just install mysql the way suggested in ubottu's link?
[04:36] <stimoceiver> pfifo: which gives xvideo adapter number
[04:37] <quuxman> mickster04: that's not here and now
[04:37] <quuxman> rww: it's not such an uncommon thing to do. It generally works, though it's a little tedious
[04:37] <Corleone> aff
[04:38] <rww> quuxman: It is uncommon, it doesn't generally work, and your system is no longer supportable in this channel.
[04:38] <quuxman> my question is, what packages should I reinstall to get the boot process to work?
[04:38] <stimoceiver> pfifo: yah i just tried it. setting the "xvideo" adapter number to 1 sure speeds things up. (the default is -1, which i assume means something like, let vlc player choose.
[04:39] <stimoceiver> pfifo: but this is a fairly obscure setting. i am just curious about the difference between xvideo adapter 0 (= texture interface according to the smplayer gui) and xvideo adapter 1 (= blit interface.) from what i know about blit operations versus texture operations, it does make sense that blitting would be faster
[04:40] <stimoceiver> pfifo: what doesnt make sense is that the xv interface would default to using texture operations.
[04:40] <ramadikka> heloo..
[04:41] <pfifo> stimoceiver, I bieleve that what you are telling it todo is use a video overlay, which would have a substantial advantage over direct rendering, but I cant say 100% id have to lookup those libs docs
[04:42] <stimoceiver> pfifo: yeah, i guess what i am looking for is a way to set the xv lib to use this blit/overlay method by default insted of the texture method
[04:43] <pfifo> stimoceiver, that makes perfect sense that it would default to direct rendering as most computers ship without a high end video card
[04:43] <stimoceiver> pfifo: anyway, i appreciate your following this with me... are there any apps or .conf files for tuning/adjusting xv defaults?
[04:43] <stimoceiver> pfifo: well maybe but i mean these days, most cards can probqably do overlay mode... when you say "most computers ship" i doubt any computer that is shipping today lacks this mode, even for shared memory video cards
[04:44] <stimoceiver>  /s/card/subsystems
[04:45] <pfifo> stimoceiver, i have no idea if xv has config files, usually libraries do not.
[04:45] <stimoceiver> pfifo: it looks like it would be set in the xorg.conf
[04:46] <Sadin56> i tried to restart my computer after installing ubuntu 10.10 and all i see is a huge list of end_request: I/O errors, dev sdb  messages is that normal oh and it hasnt shutdown yet...
[04:46] <pfifo> stimoceiver, yes however direct rending will always work, and overlay will generate uses giving feed back about mplayer being broken
[04:46] <mcurran> Can anyone tell me howto edit the sudoers file so that my user is equal to root, and doesn't need to enter password all the time.
[04:47] <rww> Sadin56: It's a bug, but nothing to worry about. Remove the CD-ROM and manually restart your computer with the case button.
[04:48] <Sadin56> alright thanks ill try
[04:48] <stimoceiver> pfifo: maybe in mplayer, but now that ive noticed this i need to find a way to change the default, cuz pretty much all video players bundled with ubuntu look unbearably crappy and flickery using xv device #0, wheras changing to device #1 makes it unbelievably smooth in comparison
[04:48] <MaRk-I> !root | mcurran
[04:48] <Sadin56> well rww should i do the same even if i used USB
[04:48] <rww> Sadin56: yes
[04:48] <stimoceiver> pfifo: the point is this is not a setting a typical new user is going to figure out, SMPlayer isnt even installed by default
[04:48] <Sadin56> k thanks
[04:48] <mcurran> whatever, I'm sick of sudo and I don't care how unsecure it is.
[04:49] <rww> mcurran: See "Remove Password Prompt For sudo" on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[04:49] <stimoceiver> pfifo: and only in the "video" output method selection dropdown of SMPlayer is it even enumerated with a name.... that or telling people to type "xvinfo" at the command line
[04:49] <rww> mcurran: and note that any consequences of following those instructions, and the instructions themselves, are not supported by this channel.
[04:49] <Sadin56> rww ubuntu isnt starting up its at a blinking curser after i turn on my computer and still sitting there
[04:50] <stimoceiver> pfifo: so i guess i have a question now about how to set the default adaptor number in the xorg.conf or the x-video extension section of xorg.conf...
[04:50] <pfifo> stimoceiver, unfortunatly, most of ubuntu ships without support for most video to begin with so a new user has alot more to worry about
[04:52] <stimoceiver> pfifo: how so? you mean if people dont know to install the proprietary nvidia or ati drivers?
[04:52] <Sadin56> ubuntu wont start after install just get a blinking curser anyone know how to solve this?
[04:52] <edbian> pfifo: I agree with you.  It is one more thing they have to worry about
[04:53] <pfifo> stimoceiver, no there is legal issues around many of the popular codecs to where ubuntu cannot ship with them, there is only a handful of completly free codecs supported by default
[04:53] <edbian> Sadin56: press shift to get to a grub menu during boot time.  When you get to the grub menu choose the first Ubuntu kernel and press 'e' to edit it'  add the option 'nomodeset' to the end and try to boot
[04:53] <stimoceiver> pfifo: so do you have any idea, what to put in xorg.conf to tell the X server to use "adaptor 1" instead of "adaptor 0" ?
[04:54] <pfifo> stimoceiver, no, i dont, i always stick -vo sdl in mplayer.conf
[04:54] <stimoceiver> pfifo: regarding legal issues: isnt the codec issue the same 'proprietary' issue that prevents ubuntu being distributed with ati or nvidia proprietary drivers? i note that simply by enabling those package sources in synaptic, i was able to downlopad all of the above, vlc, codecs, and nvidia drivers
[04:54] <Sadin56> ebian pressing shift does nothing
[04:54] <stimoceiver> pfifo: yeah re: mplayer.conf: im trying to find a way to do the equivalent in xorg.conf
[04:54] <Sadin56> edbian ^^
[04:55] <RealOpty> i want my home folder on another partition thats on the same hdd. should i use a symbolic link or a hard link?
[04:55] <MaRk-I> Sadin56: you have to press shift as soon as you see ubuntu starting... the 2 purple icons etc.
[04:55] <ayaka> are there any game cheat in linux?
[04:55] <Sadin56> i dont get there
[04:55] <Sadin56> it never gets to that part
[04:55] <mithridates> how can I resolve a dependency issue? how can I find the problem?
[04:55] <Sadin56> it sits at a black screen with white curser and does nothing
[04:56] <pfifo> stimoceiver, alot of users get stumped about mp3's and xvid, most are used to installing via an exe and dont know where to look for them.
[04:56] <Xase> Overscan issues here... what can I do about them?
[04:56] <stimoceiver> pfifo: true. true. understood. i may have a wee bit more experience than that
[04:56] <MaRk-I> Sadin56: then press is as soon as the bios finishes loading
[04:56] <stimoceiver> Xase: what video card and what monitor/TV ?
[04:57] <Xase> I have an intel4500mhd
[04:57] <Xase> Panasonic Viera, not sure on the model
[04:57] <Sadin56> MaRk-l tried that nothing :/
[04:57] <edbian> Sadin56: I'm here sorry.
[04:57] <stimoceiver> Xase: is that Panasonic a HDTV ?
[04:57] <Xase> Hold for model stimoceiver
[04:57] <Xase> Yes stimoceiver
[04:57] <quuxman> How do I disable a resume from disk?
[04:57] <quuxman> say it's failing, and I want to just manually turn it off
[04:58] <Sadin56> edbian the shift thing does not work i never get to the ubuntu start screen just black screen with white curser
[04:58] <edbian> Sadin56: You have to press shift before it gets to the white cursor.   Turn the machine off.  Boot the machine and as soon as the POST is done jam on shift like it's your job.
[04:58] <stimoceiver> Xase: the issue has to do with the EDID data the monitor provides to the graphics adapter... im looking for a link
[04:58] <Sadin56> ok lol
[04:58] <mithridates> any idea about resolving a dependency issue?
[04:58] <Xase> Alright stimoceiver.
[04:58] <Sadin56> edbian nothing :O shift simply isnt doing anything
[04:58] <edbian> Sadin56: That was the fastest boot ever
[04:59] <Sadin56> yeah iknow...
[04:59] <Xase> Also, are there any intel graphics tools available to Linux/Ubuntu, as I was aware from my research that Intel tends to be very friendly with the Linux community.
[04:59] <Sadin56> adbian should i try a power reset?
[04:59] <quuxman> There must be a flag somewhere I can turn off that's set to notify the boot process to resume from a memory image
[04:59] <edbian> Sadin56: yes.  What other type of rebooting is there?
[04:59] <Sadin56> edbian should i try a power reset sorry keep typing your name wrong
[05:00] <edbian> Sadin56: yes
[05:00] <Sadin56> lol k
[05:00] <rww> !tab
[05:00] <stimoceiver> Xase: i had the exact same problem with an nvidia card, the quick and dirty solution is to create a custom EDID file and tell the x server to use it... url here: http://analogbit.com/fix_nvidia_edid
[05:00] <Baribal_> mithridates, without more information: If in doubt, --fix-missing or --fix-broken.
[05:00] <Xase> Thanks stimoceiver, is there a long and drawn out solution as well?
[05:01] <stimoceiver> Xase: while there may be a simpler solution if you can find a directive for the "Device" section of the xorg.conf file to just tell it to ignore EDID
[05:01] <mithridates> Baribal_: what kind of information ?
[05:01] <Sadin56> edbian i got nothing i dont know whats going wrong...
[05:01] <Xase> Hmm
[05:01] <stimoceiver> Xase: but that depends on the video adapter... the solution given at that url will for sure work for the problem you are having
[05:02] <Xase> Well this isn't the default device, so I'm sure it's not in xorg stimoceiver... at least when it's not plugged in.
[05:02] <Xase> BRB
[05:02] <Xase> Alright I'll check it out mate, thanks.
[05:02] <Baribal_> mithridates, for instance what the actual problem is.
[05:02] <mickster04> !who | Xase
[05:03] <RealOpty> i want my home folder on another partition thats on the same hdd. should i use a symbolic link or a hard link to the new home folder? im thinking hard link ????
[05:03] <mithridates> Baribal_: actual problem is that I'm in gnome right now but things are weird, graphic is not perfect, so I tried sudo apt-get install gnome that I got that dependency issue
[05:03] <mithridates> Baribal_:  gnome : Depends: gnome-desktop-environment (= 1:2.30+7ubuntu3) but it is not going to be installed
[05:03] <Sadin56> no one knows what to do when ubuntu wont start up and all you see is white curser blinking on white screen
[05:03] <mithridates> Baribal_: and I can't get into Ubuntu Desktop, I'm in Ubuntu Classic Desktop
[05:03] <Sadin56> ?
[05:03] <Xase> mickster04, Unfortunately I'm aware already, and I'm sure my target saw my response nonetheless, but thanks for being such a samaritan.
[05:04] <pfifo> RealOpty, i use a symbolic link if i cannot mount it where i need it.
[05:04] <RealOpty> pfifo, ok ty
[05:05] <Baribal_> mithridates, "not going to be installed"? Any further information? Also, tried apt-get --fix-missing already?
[05:06] <mithridates> Baribal_: yes, I got same exactly error
[05:06] <mithridates> Baribal_: it's funny because it says this line is for more information
[05:06] <symbi> is there a way to get cds to mount in the same location every time? i go to install something from cd and then have the next cd expects the location to be the same

[05:08] <Baribal_> mithridates, try running --fix-missing, *then* install gnome. If that doesn't work, I don't know.
[05:08] <pfifo> symbi, you can directly mount anything anywhere with the mount command
[05:09] <Baribal_> mithridates, are you running LTS or unstable?
[05:09] <mickster04> Xase: IT'S just that people joining the channel to help scan for nameless lines, then try and help out
[05:09] <symbi> pfifo: i was looking for something which i change so that auto-mounting still works
[05:09] <mithridates> Baribal_: natty (please don't tell me go to ubuntu+1) they don't answer
[05:10] <pfifo> symbi, auto-mount will still work, you can just mount it where you want it manually. as far as auto-mounting goes, I dont know if you can get it not to use the name of the cd.
[05:10] <MaRk-I> mithridates: you should try ubuntu-desktop   instead of just gnome
[05:10] <symbi> pfifo: ok.. i'll keep looking. thanks.
[05:11] <mithridates> MaRk-I: ubuntu-desktop is already the newest version.
[05:12] <MaRk-I> mithridates: then you have gnome installed
[05:12] <rww> mithridates: #ubuntu is for released versions of Ubuntu only. The quietness of the channel you're supposed to be in doesn't change that.
[05:12] <mithridates> MaRk-I: so why can't I login to ubuntu desktop?
[05:13] <MaRk-I> mithridates: what do you mean you can't log in?
[05:13] <pfifo> MaRk-I, natty comes with unity by default
[05:13] <MaRk-I> and natty support is in #ubuntu+1
[05:13] <mithridates> MaRk-I: in login page we have: ubuntu, ubuntu desktop, ubuntu desktop safe, ubuntu netbook,....
[05:14] <rww> mithridates: Go to #ubuntu+1, please.
[05:14] <mithridates> rww: ok sorry
[05:15] <optidude> hello all
[05:15] <optidude> how is everyone
[05:16] <pfifo> OHAI
[05:18] <mickster04> hulloi
[05:18] <vaasu> hi there
[05:18] <mickster04> problem?
[05:21] <DOokami> haaaaaah ,, hello everyone
[05:21] <pfifo> i have like 50 bastebin tabs open
[05:21] <DOokami> i tried sooo hard to find a way to "download videos from youtube" on ubuntu but non worked for me ,, can any one please help me
[05:21] <GadsdenGraphics> window right
[05:21] <GadsdenGraphics> lol
[05:22] <mickster04> DOokami: try in !ot, this is ubuntu specific help, you are not asking something that ubuntu is supposed to be able to do
[05:22] <GadsdenGraphics> Can anyone point me to a start here?  My touchpad is very sensitive and I get accidental preses - using Awesome WM.
[05:22] <rww> ... what.
[05:22] <pfifo> DOokami, i think there are some firefox plugins for that
[05:22] <stimoceiver> pfifo: this is the kind of problem im up against trying to do this in xorg.conf: http://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.0/doc/xorg.conf.5.html#toc8
[05:22] <GadsdenGraphics> In KDE ,Synaptiks gives me a config option to fix that - in Awesome, I'm lost.
[05:22] <rww> mickster04: #ubuntu-offtopic is not a support channel, and Ubuntu has packages in its repositories for downloading from Youtube.
[05:22] <DOokami> pfifo, thanks man, i'll look them up right away
[05:23] <mickster04> rww: i did not know that
[05:23] <rww> !info youtube-dl | being the prototypical one
[05:23] <mickster04> rww: i didn't think his request was within the boundaries for ubuntu support tbh
[05:23] <pfifo> stimoceiver, lol @ Nobody wants to say how this works. Maybe nobody knows ...
[05:24] <DOokami> rww, thanks a lot ^^
[05:24] <DOokami> rww, i downloaded youtube-dl, but i didn't know how to actually use it ,, and "minitube" don't work at all as well
[05:24] <DOokami> rww, any ideas
[05:24] <MaRk-I> DOokami: lates Umplayer does that
[05:24] <mickster04> DOokami: man youtube-dl
[05:25] <Wolframn> DOokami, what's wrong with video2mp3?
[05:25] <GadsdenGraphics> I'm looking to disable my touchpad while typing, in Awesome.  Anyone?
[05:25] <rww> DOokami: I haven't actually used youtube-dl. I use tinyogg.com instead for that sort of thing, but that's probably not what you're looking for.
[05:25] <Wolframn> GadsdenGraphics, you do not have a fn-hotkey combination for that?
[05:26] <GadsdenGraphics> Wolframn: Not what I mean - I need it to shut off for .5 sec when typing.
[05:26] <GadsdenGraphics> Wolframn: In KDE, it's called "smart mode"
[05:26] <trihope> New to ubuntu, anyone interested in helping me get compiz fusion installed/running etc
[05:26] <Wolframn> GadsdenGraphics, I am not familiar with that, sorry. >_>
[05:26] <GadsdenGraphics> kde-config-touchpad handles it well, and synaptiks does it as well.  In Awesome, I have no idea how to get this.
[05:26] <GadsdenGraphics> Wolframn: Thx anyhow ;)
[05:26] <GadsdenGraphics> window down
[05:27] <Wolframn> trihope, while we're here to help, and we're happy to!, do yourself a favor and learn of the Ubuntu wiki as well as how to use Google. Do you have a *specific* issue?
[05:27] <vaasu> DOokami: try downloadhelper firefox extension
[05:27] <Wolframn> GadsdenGraphics, No worries! Sorry I can't be more help.
[05:27] <GadsdenGraphics> My "window down" was a weechat command.  The slash was skipped because my touchpad moved focus :(
[05:28] <trihope> well, i was told it was already installed on the ubuntu, but not seeing the options
[05:28] <Sadin56> edbian oh i read up on how to access the grub menu i did not know you wanted me to hold down the shift key so i will try it again after re install :)
[05:28] <mickster04> !compiz | trihope
[05:28] <Wolframn> trihope, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion
[05:28] <MaRk-I> GadsdenGraphics: check on System > Preferences > mouse  "touch pad" tab
[05:28] <rww> trihope: The basic options for compiz are System > Preferences > Appearances > Visual Effects. More advanced customization is available through CCSM.
[05:28] <rww> !ccsm | trihope
[05:29] <rww> trihope: if you go to the Visual Effects tab and it's not set to "Normal" or "Extra" and you can't set it to one of those, your graphics drivers don't support 3D acceleration.
[05:29] <Wolframn> trihope, please don't think we're trying to be rude by referring you to links - it's just that "pro" users really are just adept at googling their own issues and only really asking for help when totally stumped. =P
[05:29] <trihope> k, thanks I'll check out the links
[05:30] <mickster04> trihope: on the plus soide, if it's an ubottu link it means lots of people have similar issues
[05:30] <Wolframn> trihope, let us know if you run into any glitches, etc and we'll be glad to help out! =D
[05:30] <trihope> btw, what does this do?  "! ccsm"
[05:30] <Wolframn> In the chat? It tells ubottu (our bot) to provide the information
[05:30] <rww> trihope: ubottu is a fact bot. Messages beginning with ! are generally instructions to it to say something.
[05:30] <mickster04> trihope: ! means it's an ubottu command, and the bot will try and interpret it
[05:30] <mickster04> !bot
[05:30] <pfifo> !votekick
[05:30] <DOokami> rww, i want to be able to download them in "good quality" and "convert them to mpeg4" which i know how right now ,, only the downloading part, thanks a lot :)

[05:54] <Lewoco> A particular version of the kernel is causing me hassles. Is there anyway to 'ban' a particular version so that aptitude will not upgrade to it, but still upgrade to later versions?
[05:54] <doobien> murphy, any of em
[05:55] <murphy> doobien: what is em?
[05:55] <doobien> any of the buntus

[05:58] <Aleiex> hi
[05:58] <Aleiex> I need to write some data in ntfs partition
[05:58] <Aleiex> but can't
[05:58] <Aleiex> any help?
[05:59] <pfifo> Aleiex, whats the problem?
[05:59] <Aleiex> pfifo permision
[05:59] <Aleiex> i need to use chmod on ntfs partition
[05:59] <Aleiex> but dont know how
[06:00] <Aleiex> to write/delete in ntfs partition
[06:00] <ajin> hi, will "docky" this program make any sense under ubuntu11.04, since there will be unity launcher already
[06:00] <rhizmoe> not going to happen.
[06:00] <ajin> ?
[06:00] <KXTwo> you have an ntfs partition but dont have permission to it?
[06:00] <rhizmoe> Aleiex: ^
[06:00] <KXTwo> whereever it is mounted
[06:00] <hopeless8009> hay there is a grapics program called compez is that the right thing i think i'm slightly off
[06:00] <KXTwo> simply use chmod on it to give write permissions
[06:00] <rhizmoe> ntfs doesn't use file modes
[06:00] <pfifo> Aleiex, im not sure that would work, Im pretty sure youll have todo it as root
[06:00] <rhizmoe> hopeless8009: compiz
[06:00] <Aleiex> pfifo but how
[06:00] <Aleiex> which command
[06:00] <MaRk-I> ajin: join #ubuntu+1 for natty questions/issues
[06:01] <ajin> ok
[06:01] <Aleiex> sudo chmod ???
[06:01] <pfifo> Aleiex, you use sudo to perform an operation as root
[06:02] <hopeless8009> rhizmoe, i typed that in my surch and it gave no results im on ubuntu 10.04 LTS
[06:02] <pfifo> Aleiex, I dont think chown is designed to work on NTFS file systems
[06:02] <SudoGhost> hopeless8009, what search did you type that into?
[06:03] <Kyubey> Is this the channel were I would ask a question about Natty?
[06:03] <hopeless8009> the software center in ubuntu
[06:03] <MaRk-I> kyle1: #ubuntu+1
[06:03] <pfifo> !natty | Kyubey
[06:03] <SudoGhost> Kyubey, #ubuntu+1
[06:03] <Kyubey> Oh, thanks :)
[06:03] <digitalfiz> how do i find out via the cli what event my usb keyboard is?
[06:03] <MaRk-I> oops kyle1 my bad kyle1 ... Kyubey ^^
[06:04] <pfifo> digitalfiz, use `xev`
[06:04] <digitalfiz> says unable to open display
[06:04] <digitalfiz> im messing with a keylogger and i need to know which event it is in /dev/input
[06:05] <hopeless8009> SudoGhost, i typed it into the Ubuntu software center
[06:05] <pfifo> digitalfiz, ahh, no X available, I dont think cli supports all the extrakey, or atleast ive never heARD OF A PROGRAM ACCESSING THEM, SORRY
[06:05] <pfifo> -caps
[06:05] <KXTwo> Aleixei your ntfs partition should actuay show up right in your places
[06:05] <KXTwo> once you click on it it will mount
[06:05] <KXTwo> and youa re good to go
[06:06] <KXTwo> I move files back and forth from mine all the time
[06:06] <SudoGhost> hopeless8009, I've never messed with Compiz, but I don't believe it's available in the software center.
[06:06] <UbuntuNoob> can anyone explain to my what the point of the terminal is? it seems like theres a gui for all of the things it does
[06:06] <Aleiex> KXTwo i know, I can acces, but can't write data in that partition
[06:07] <rww> UbuntuNoob: There isn't a GUI for all of the things it does.
[06:07] <pfifo> UbuntuN00b, cli is all there used to be, gui is simply just a front end.
[06:07] <pfifo> i think i just got trolled
