[00:00] <Richiie> alright now i rebooted
[00:00] <Richiie> and im getting this prompt when loging in "Ubuntu is running in low graphics mode"
[00:00] <exutux> arquebus: ctrl+l
[00:01] <Richiie> i tried to reconfigure xorg but it doesnt work so i have to start in VESA i think it's called that way and it looks terrible
[00:01] <Richiie> how can i solve this, problem that when i start my Ubuntu i get a prompt telling me that ubuntu runs in low graphic mode?
[00:01] <arquebus> exutux- what is ctrl+I for?
[00:01] <Cyr4x> http://imageshack.us/f/814/14082011005.jpg/
[00:02] <Gentoo64> fairtrade?
[00:02] <zykotick9> Richiie, what graphics card are you using?  "lspci | grep -i vga" in a terminal if you aren't sure.
[00:02] <jaispida> hi
[00:02] <Richiie> zykotick9: VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc R430 [Radeon X800 XL] (PCIe)
[00:03] <Richiie> Saphire radeon X800XL all i want to do is to revert back to the default ubuntu drivers, the open source ones that comes when i installed my ubuntu 10.04
[00:03] <exutux> arquebus: ctrl+L for show you path in address bar in nautilus
[00:03] <Gentoo64> Richiie, can you not do hat from the driver manager
[00:04] <Richiie> Gentoo64: nope, there is no drivers propieraty that works for my card..
[00:04] <Richiie> i tried to install latest possible drivers by following this one sec,
[00:04] <Gentoo64> what are you using then?
[00:04] <arquebus> exutux- ok, thanks, good to know, although I just set the address bar to text permanently
[00:05] <Richiie> Gentoo64: well now i think its vesa..
[00:05] <Richiie> Gentoo64: getting that stupid prompt when i start my Linux "Ubuntu is running in low graphic mode"
[00:06] <Richiie> Gentoo64: i followed this okay..
[00:06] <Richiie> Gentoo64: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Lucid_Installation_Guide#Ubuntu_X_Team.27s_PPA
[00:06] <Richiie> the thing was that those drivers didnt work as i wanted to.. the catalyst control center wouldnt start
[00:06] <Richiie> i got an error telling me "no properly ATI card found" and i was like hey wtf
[00:07] <Richiie> so i removed the PPA repository list, and i really just want to revert back to the original open source 10.04 drivers that came when i installed my system
[00:07] <dawid> hi
[00:07] <Gentoo64> can you not apt-get remove fglrx
[00:07] <Gentoo64> or whatever it is
[00:07] <Richiie> i dont have fglrx installed..
[00:07] <Richiie> as im saying i removed all that crappy stuff. i just want to revert back to the original 10.04 drivers
[00:08] <triplc> how to install menumaker ? i read that i should install "menumaker" to create proper menu for openbox, but i do not know which package to install to get menumaker (apt-get install menumaker does not work(
[00:08] <Richiie> so i can get rid of the error message telling me every time i start my Linux "Ubuntu is running in low graphic mode"
[00:08] <Gentoo64> triplc, try mmaker?
[00:08] <Gentoo64> probably wrong
[00:08] <Gentoo64> Richiie, i have no idea :( sorry
[00:09] <triplc> apt-get install mmaker does not work either, i am using ubuntu 10.0
[00:09] <triplc> apt-get install mmaker does not work either, i am using ubuntu 10.04
[00:09] <Richiie> come on theres gotta be a way of dealing whit this..
[00:09] <Richiie> Gentoo64: come on you gotta now some way of dealing whit this mate
[00:10] <Gentoo64> triplc, i think you need to compile it
[00:10] <Gentoo64> from source
[00:10] <Gentoo64> Richiie, i hope someone else can help you. i dont use ati
[00:11] <triplc> Gentoo64: oops
[00:11]  * zykotick9 thinks someone should ask Richiie if they are currently using an xorg.conf, and if they are, to try booting without it.
[00:11] <Gentoo64> triplc, i googled it and seems thats the only way
[00:11] <Gentoo64> triplc, i have a menu file if you want that and edit it
[00:11] <Gentoo64> use it as a base
[00:12] <triplc> Gentoo64: ah no need... thanks anyway
[00:12] <Gasseus> How could I figure out my current localnet IP address via bash and its available utilities?
[00:13] <zykotick9> Gasseus, ifconfig?
[00:13] <triplc> lynx http://myipaddress.net
[00:13] <Gasseus> triplc i need the localnet version
[00:14] <Gasseus> zykotick9 it needs root privilages, which I don't want to give an automatic script
[00:14] <Gasseus> I'm trying to determine if I should connect to the localnet ip or the global ip for my ssh server.
[00:15] <Gasseus> triplc also, that site is offline

[00:18] <edbian> TYDIRocks: reading....
[00:19] <Gasseus> make sure to select playdeb tho
[00:19] <edbian> TYDIRocks: It's written by staff so it probably works.  It probably however is not easy to get it work.  Also, I think it's overkill.
[00:19] <w30> dreamy_, linuxgames.com
[00:19] <TYDIRocks> edbian, dang

[00:21] <paulo> can anyone help me
[00:21] <paulo> ??????????????'
[00:21] <Gasseus> hmm?
[00:21] <Gasseus> !ask
[00:22] <paulo> I instaled veetle aparently not rigth
[00:22] <Gasseus> veetle?
[00:23] <Gasseus> paulo this is not the appropriate place to ask about veetle. The appropriate place would probably be veetle customer support
[00:23] <paulo> them wen I initialize the pc I have a message: "Could not update ICE authority file
[00:24] <paulo> with a buton of close. i press enter and the pc initializes but I dont have sound control
[00:25] <paulo> does any one now a solution to this
[00:25] <paulo> my problem is not with veetle itself. I would prefer to unistall it if my problem would be solved
[00:26] <Gasseus> in terminal, cd ~
[00:26] <Gasseus> then "sudo chown username:username .ICEauthority"
[00:26] <Gasseus> then "sudo chmod 0644 .ICEauthority
[00:27] <paulo> ok, done
[00:27] <paulo> and now?
[00:28] <Gasseus> there's no "and now?"
[00:28] <Gasseus> either it works, or its unsolvable by my knowledge
[00:28] <paulo> ok
[00:29] <paulo> so now i should initialize the pc again to see if the problem is still there?
[00:29] <paulo> and how do I remove the veetle?
[00:30] <Gasseus> that i don't know
[00:30] <Gasseus> probably sudo dpkg --purge veetle
[00:31] <maestrojed> I think I am following the wrong directions, maybe someone can point me in the right direction. I have a computer with only USB (no CD). I want to install Ubuntu. I was going to use a USB stick. I my current computer is OSX. How, using my OSX computer, can I create a USB stick that can boot/install ubuntu to a new system? I tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/How%20to%20install%20Ubuntu%20on%20Ma

[00:32] <Gasseus> dreamy_ sudo apt-get autoremove
[00:32] <dreamy_> k ty
[00:33] <maestrojed> Gasseus maybe I made it sound too confusing. This can't be that odd, right? I just need a USB stick that I use to install ubuntu
[00:33] <dreamy_> Gasseus, it will speed up my system i think
[00:33] <dreamy_> having less packages
[00:33] <Gasseus> dreamy_ thats a misconception
[00:34] <dreamy_> Gasseus, and after i did, apt-get remove driconf --purge     .. after that everything got like it was too ?

[00:35] <pl0xy> need help sharing internet & firestarter who can help me please
[00:35] <Gasseus> dreamy_ Some things that daemonize will slow down your computer if they actually use any cpu time, but like 99% of the programs in ubuntu sit idle.
[00:35] <KM0201> Gasseus: well, if the system were packed to the gills, it would speed it up (most likely).. but if it's packed that full, 600mb isn't gonna do much
[00:35] <Gasseus> pl0xy sharing internet...
[00:35] <Gasseus> how so?
[00:35] <xKrisx> I'm pretty new to linux but I was trying to attempt this: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/internet/C/ndiswrapper.html I was wondering about the inf file and which one it is suppose to be. Its a Netgear WN111v2 if that helps at all.

[00:37] <pl0xy> well i change cable 1 time but not see that
[00:38] <Gasseus> pl0xy you specifically need a crossover type cable to connect the two computers
[00:39] <Gasseus> pl0xy ask at a computer shop they'll know what you're talking about

[00:43] <dreamy_> k
[00:43] <xKrisx> I dont have the disk
[00:44] <pl0xy> Gasseus if the setup is : internet -> ubuntu router -> wifi router -> my pc it has to be crossover ?

[00:45] <Gasseus> pl0xy yes, because the router internet port is a client side ethernet port, same with your firewalls nic
[00:46] <pl0xy> kk , goint for that now thanks
[00:47] <xKrisx> where is the inf file?
[00:48] <Gasseus> xKrisx give me a second
[00:48] <xKrisx> alright
[00:49] <Gasseus> xKrisx run it with wine
[00:49] <Gasseus> then wherever it would normally be in windows, you'll find it in wine
[00:49] <Guest47885> any one know about sound issues?
[00:50] <xKrisx> this post says its in the disk
[00:50] <Benkinooby> can i run links -g in a terminal?
[00:50] <Guest47885> any one know about sound issues?
[00:50] <Guest47885> any one?
[00:51] <Gasseus> xKrisx Run the software in that link in wine, then it will be in C:\WINDOWS\system32\Drivers\WNDA31.sys
[00:51] <I7Core> yes, Guest47885
[00:51] <Gasseus> thats what you need
[00:51] <xKrisx> "Also copy the contents of the directory containing the .inf file that was used during installation (which should be D:\bin\config\ndis5\, assuming your CD drive is D)." Doesn't that mean its on windows?
[00:51] <xKrisx> no i have that other file
[00:51] <usr13> defswork: ifconfig
[00:52] <Guest47885> i have a rocket fish sound card but no sound
[00:52] <Gasseus> xKrisx it will also be in the C:\ directory
[00:52] <Benkinooby> Guest47885: first, be patient. second you would help us to help you, by secifying your problems? what is the problem? what are it's symptoms? what works? what doesn work?
[00:52] <I7Core> why?
[00:53] <Benkinooby> Guest47885: have you read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound ?
[00:53] <Gasseus> or it should
[00:53] <Guest47885> well the sound dosent work and neather dose the sound card ive tryed downloading in va wine but no luck and ive tryed all the settings on my sound prefrences
[00:53] <Gasseus> Guest47885 try in terminal alsa-sound
[00:53] <aaas> which are people having more success with: nvidia propritory drivers or nvidia-current?
[00:53] <Guest47885> mk sec
[00:53] <aaas> sorry should mention 11.04 is my os
[00:54] <zykotick9> aaas, nvidia-current IS the proprietary driver
[00:54] <pl0xy> just changed the cable and its the same :/
[00:54] <Guest47885> command not found
[00:54] <Gasseus> Guest47885 sorry its alsamixer
[00:54] <xKrisx> Gasseus: I don't understand, why would the inf be in the root?
[00:54] <aaas> zykotick9: but some people are having more luck with the nvidia drivers from the site
[00:54] <phirestalker> ok I have a problem USB pen drive. it seems that after I mount it, even after I unmount it, I am unable to mount certain other drives like truecrypt volumes. It will say "bad file descriptor" with no other info. My question is, how do I clear the problem without restarting?
[00:54] <Guest47885> wooh whats this screan that poped up?
[00:55] <Gasseus> xKrisx Look around your wine's c:\ drive it should be somewhere in there i'm not 100% sure where
[00:55] <zykotick9> aaas, ah, yes that's a different question.  So, I've never used the driver for Nvidia.com so I have no idea.  Good luck.
[00:55] <Gasseus> Guest47885 its the backend sound control
[00:56] <Guest47885> ok so what am i looking for and what am i doing?
[00:56] <Gasseus> Guest47885 make some music play (grooveshark, pandora, etc) and adjust them one by one
[00:56] <Gasseus> if none of them make any volume happen, then your card is unsupported
[00:56] <aaas> zykotick9: anyone?  nvidia-current or nvidia's version?
[00:57] <Gasseus> aaas nvidia-current
[00:57] <phirestalker> what daemon could be "stuck" that I can just restart that daemon?
[00:57] <Benkinooby> Guest47885: it can also be that it is muted... see if you can spot "MM" under the controlers
[00:57] <Guest47885> i can asure you that that is not the case
[00:58] <Benkinooby> Guest47885: so there is no "MM" under the volumebars?`
[00:58] <Guest47885> hold on you might be on to something
[00:58] <Benkinooby> :P
[00:59] <Benkinooby> Guest47885: if there is a "MM" then navigate to the volumebar with the left and right arrows and press m to toggle the "MM" away
[01:00] <Guest47885> there is no mm

[01:10] <Guest14050> i tryed taht sudo aplay- l thing and nothing happend
[01:11] <linuxnja> so I noticed Ubuntu is looking more and more like OS X. Now all it needs is iTunes and I'll be able to use it!
[01:11] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: "sudo aplay -l | grep card0" did give you anything?
[01:11] <aaas> i dont suppose anyone has a recommendation for a windows irc client that makes a sound when your name is mentioned in channel?
[01:11] <xKrisx> Benkinooby: the file manger
[01:11] <dasddsa> aaas: pidgin?
[01:11] <Guest14050> nothing
[01:12] <aaas> pidgin does irc..i didnt know that
[01:12] <aaas> dasddsa: is that what you use?
[01:12] <zykotick9> aaas, xchat can be configured to make a sound.  Pidgin is a poor IRC client IMO.
[01:12] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: ok, that means that the card is not properly recongized
[01:12] <dasddsa> aaas: yes
[01:12] <Guest14050> then what do i have to do to make it be recognized?
[01:12] <aaas> zykotick9: is xchat for windows?
[01:12] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: follow this site https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting to fix your sond card
[01:13] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: that website will tell you
[01:13] <zykotick9> aaas, there is a MS Windows xchat yes
[01:13] <willwh> aaas: there is an xchat2 open source build.....
[01:13] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: if you followed it and it didn't help report back to me
[01:13] <willwh> http://www.silverex.org/download/
[01:13] <Benkinooby> xKrisx: are you using gnome?
[01:13] <aaas> is that what you all are using (zykotick9, willwh)
[01:13] <xKrisx> xubuntu
[01:14] <willwh> no, a) I'm running xubuntu - and b) my IRC session is using screen/irssi on my remote server :)
[01:14] <zykotick9> aaas, i haven't used any MS OS in close to 10 years.    This was working a couple of weeks ago.
[01:18] <willwh> aaas: if you're looking for a good local client- definitely use Xchat
[01:18] <aaas> willwh: not hydrairc as far as i can tell...i was loving it too, it was open and a lot of nice features
[01:18] <willwh> it's great
[01:18] <xKrisx> Thunar 1.2.1
[01:18] <willwh> aaas: you're on windows?
[01:18] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: see, i am no wizard so i have no magic bowl that tells me what's wrong with your computer. follow that site i sent you. if you have troubles following it or understanding it i am there.... but i am not your mommy and will not read the site for you
[01:18] <aaas> willwh yes
[01:18] <Benkinooby> xKrisx: ok
[01:18] <Arcademan> Is there a way to gen a installed list into a text doc so I might be able to just use the terminal and install the packages to anther comp.
[01:18] <zykotick9> !clone | Arcademan
[01:19] <willwh> aaas: that xchat2 link I provided you would be a good plan :]
[01:19] <Guest14050> sorry for all the questions but i used wget -O alsa-info.sh http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ./alsa-info.sh      and im not shure what this means but i thught it mught be of some help
[01:19] <Guest14050> http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=d665a9d1fda9661d81d99a8666b0a733bddf1fc8
[01:19] <aaas> willwh: why not irssi?
[01:19] <aaas> aaas: i need console i guess?
[01:20] <aaas> oops: willwh
[01:20] <willwh> aaas: no there is a windows build.... but I wouldn't recommend iton windows:]
[01:20] <aaas> willwh: ah ok
[01:20] <willwh> I have an old pc in my basement - it runs 24/7 and runs my irc / webserver etc etc etc
[01:20] <Benkinooby> xKrisx: wow! see what google found for me when entering "Thunar open mount" http://thunar.xfce.org/documentation/C/using-removable-media.html
[01:21] <willwh> soI always connect to my irssi/screen session that runs on there
[01:21] <willwh> aaas: butif you are working in windows - I think xchat2 is just fine - it will let you do everything you need
[01:21] <Guest14050> was that any help?
[01:21] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: one sec, i am reading it
[01:21] <Guest14050> allrighty
[01:21] <aaas> willwh: yep, i use windows for my workstation but ubuntu for my server (apache, samba, backuppc, nx, etc...)
[01:22] <aaas> willwh: cool, I feel as if i'm not using a client to make the best experience
[01:22] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: btw... it is ok to ask questions :) but "ahhh i want sound" is not very helpful ;)
[01:22] <aaas> willwh: for example it's annoying i ahve to retype your name each time, there must be a shortcut for that
[01:23] <dr_willis> !tab
[01:23] <aaas> willwh: I'm just such an irc newbie
[01:23] <dr_willis> tab key is our friend.
[01:23] <aaas> dr_willis: ha! i knew it
[01:23] <dr_willis> try it on the command line also...
[01:23] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: is that from your computer?
[01:23] <Sebo> where can I find some info about /etc/init/* scripts?
[01:23] <aaas> dr_willis oh i know that one
[01:24] <xKrisx> Benkinooby: where in there is suppose to help me with this problem?
[01:24] <dr_willis> Sebo,  at the upstart homepage/docs. I got some neat links on upstart at  http://delicious.com/dr_willis
[01:24] <dr_willis> Sebo,  the upstart cookbook/tips url is very handy
[01:24] <aaas> dr_willis: is there a way to get the name of the person you were just talking to?
[01:24] <aaas> dr_willis: like ".." in ubuntu for the last used directory
[01:25] <dr_willis> aaas,  that would be irc client dependent..
[01:25] <Lasers> aaas: Press up? (Not exactly the same -- but it shows the last line)
[01:25] <dr_willis> aaas,  never seen a nick completion shortcit like that in any of them
[01:25] <Benkinooby> xKrisx: you want to disable "Browse removable media when inserted"
[01:25] <dr_willis> differnt irc clients handle tab differntly.
[01:25] <aaas> Lasers: yeah i guess up arrow and ctrl arrows and backspace is much faster
[01:25] <Guesst1337> hello
[01:25] <xKrisx> alright.
[01:25] <Guest14050> ya sorry i went to the restroom
[01:25] <dr_willis> or just hit tab a few times till the right nick shows up.
[01:25] <xKrisx> thank you Benkinooby
[01:26] <Guest14050> thats from my computer
[01:26] <foxwolfblood> Guesst1337: nice nick
[01:26] <aaas> dr_wills: but it's hard when there are lots of people, right?
[01:26] <Guesst1337> foxwolfblood: thank you
[01:26] <dr_willis> aaas,  tahts why you normally type the first letter or 2 then hit tab....
[01:26] <zykotick9> aaas, FYI "cd .." just takes you to the parent directory, "cd -" actually takes you BACK to last directory
[01:26] <dr_willis> also why nicks that begin with _ or other weirdness are sort of frowned on.
[01:26] <Guesst1337> foxwolfblood: i just got it tho, i didnt make it
[01:27] <aaas> zykotick9: yes that's what i mean
[01:27] <aaas> dr_willis ah i see
[01:27] <willwh> aaas: I just readback - if you use ubuntu server - use screen & irssi
[01:27] <willwh> and just connect to your server to IRC, via putty :D
[01:27] <foxwolfblood> tmux!
[01:27] <Guesst1337> so i was wondering if i can get the itune to work in the ubuntu
[01:27] <willwh> that is what I do, it's the best way to IRC - you never miss anything:D
[01:27] <Lasers> zykotick9: Cool trick! Thanks. :)
[01:28] <dr_willis> willwh,  i tend to use weechat, and znc :)
[01:28] <Guesst1337> im running the 11.04 version
[01:28] <willwh> dr_willis: :P
[01:28] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: hm, looks ok to me
[01:28] <willwh> aaas: quassel is pretty nice too - if you like a GUI.
[01:28] <dr_willis> willwh,  znc takes itto the next level of spiffyness.
[01:28] <linuxnja> Guesst1337: why would yoou want to use iTunes? it sucks anyway
[01:28] <aaas> willwh: I used to use screen for some server/computing work i was doing...you must be a purist...I probably use the gui more often
[01:28] <dr_willis> quassel has so many features.. its scary.
[01:28] <Guesst1337> linuxnja: i use the ipod touch for my music and i would like ot use it on the ubuntu
[01:28] <Guest14050> Benkinooby:  if it looks ok then why do i not have sound
[01:28] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: use this command "find /lib/modules/`uname -r` | grep snd"
[01:28] <willwh> aaas: not a purist - I just ssh from phones / tablets etc, I needed something truely cross platform ;)
[01:29] <overclucker> reattaching to channels, and channel playback are my fav features
[01:29] <willwh> aaas: take a look at installing quassel on your server
[01:29] <willwh> and quassel clien ton your pc's
[01:29] <aaas> willwh: rdp/nx are pretty cross platform
[01:29] <willwh> the cient is written in QT
[01:29] <dr_willis> willwh,  i do the android -> znc server on my homebox via dyndns   --> get here.. routine. :)
[01:29] <linuxnja> Guesst1337: apple sucks anyway, ubuntu is trying to copy everything apple does
[01:29] <willwh> dr_willis: home.willskills.com;]
[01:29] <Guest14050> Benkinooby: then what?
[01:29] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: only because it looks ok it doens have to be ok...from reading that file, i think all you need to run is installed... so it seems to be more of a confiuration problem
[01:29] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: is ther output?
[01:29] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: is there output?
[01:29] <willwh> dd-wrt on the router..... cname for home. -> my noip :D
[01:30] <Benkinooby> xKrisx: any news?
[01:30] <Pat201> can someone help me out, im trying to install tar.bz2 files
[01:30] <foxwolfblood> linuxnja: i agree. i havent liked the stuff comming out of canonical for a while
[01:30] <dr_willis> Pat201,  extract them.. read their instal docs... what are in the files exactly?
[01:30] <linuxnja> Pat201: you don't "install" an archive...
[01:30] <Benkinooby> xKrisx: did it work?
[01:30] <xKrisx> kind of
[01:30] <Guesst1337> linuxnja: but i am afraid of the terminal, and ubuntu is better then the windows im running. windows 2003 if im correct
[01:30] <linuxnja> foxwolfblood: yeah, and it's because of people lie Guesst1337
[01:30] <Benkinooby> xKrisx: why kind of?
[01:30] <xKrisx> it keeps on remounting the cd part of the usb
[01:31] <foxwolfblood> linuxnja: :(
[01:31] <dr_willis> Guesst1337,  just get over it and dive into the terminal and learn it.. its a skill that will serve you for the next 10+ years...
[01:31] <xKrisx> i could stop automounting too though
[01:31] <AnonMacPro> hey
[01:31] <linuxnja> Guesst1337: LOL wtf is windows 2003? how can you be afraid of a terminal anyway...it's text on a screen
[01:31] <Guest14050> it came up with alot of /lib/modules/2.6.38-10-generic/kernel/sound but none of them have the word "output
[01:31] <Guest14050> "
[01:32] <overclucker> 2003 is a server edition
[01:32] <Guesst1337> linuxnja: windows 2003 is the version im running because thats what version of the word i have on this computer
[01:32] <AnonMacPro> Mac OS X Lion!!!
[01:32] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: ok, that is a good sign
[01:32] <zykotick9> !ot > AnonMacPro
[01:32] <linuxnja> OS X sucks, especially Lion..what a rip off of gnome 3
[01:32] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: now do "lspci -v | less"
[01:32] <foxwolfblood> linuxnja: ikr
[01:33] <linuxnja> besides OS X is slow..like realy slow
[01:33] <foxwolfblood> and gnome3 sucks too
[01:33] <Pat201> i extracted them looks to be a whole bunch of .deb packages
[01:33] <S4nD3r> I tried to remove a module, but was impossible
[01:33] <Benkinooby> foxwolfblood: what gui do you use?
[01:33] <foxwolfblood> Benkinooby: none
[01:33] <foxwolfblood> Benkinooby: i use the tty
[01:33] <S4nD3r> sudo modprobe -r i915
[01:33] <S4nD3r> FATAL: Module i915 is in use.
[01:33] <Guesst1337> foxwolfblood: my friend who lives in spain with me told me that anyone with a animal in their name is this furry, is that true?
[01:33] <aaas> dr_willis, you know what serves you for life: knowing how to program--and im not a programmer, but its such a great skill
[01:33] <foxwolfblood> Guesst1337: no that is not
[01:33] <S4nD3r> how to do ?
[01:33] <scott__> does anyone know why i can't get windows to install after i installed ubuntu and windows is messed up?
[01:34] <Guesst1337> foxwolfblood: then what is the furry?
[01:34] <foxwolfblood> scott__: yea because you messed up windows.
[01:34] <linuxnja> scott__: because windows will overwrite grub
[01:34] <linuxnja> foxwolfblood: lol he probably resized the partition from the ubuntu installer and screwed up his MFT :P
[01:34] <Guesst1337> i still need to know how i can use my idop touch
[01:34] <Guesst1337> ipod
[01:34] <foxwolfblood> linuxnja: yea.
[01:34] <xangua> Guest1337  stop that please
[01:34] <Benkinooby> Guest14050: hello?
[01:34] <S4nD3r> I'd like to remove a module, from intel video card, but always get that module is use. What to do?
[01:34] <Guest14050> after i did lspci -v | less what am i looking for?
[01:35] <Guest14050> sorry i was reading it

[01:52] <Pb__> anyone know good ocr program on ubuntu ? i'm new in this OS., from yesterday.
[01:53] <ubuntu-user> is anybody there, who can translate some text into German?

[01:53] <agike> Hi, When installing Debian 6.0 and/or Ubuntu WattOS2 on my other partition I keep getting the GRUB msg "error: no such device: e93e [...], Entering rescue mode .. grub rescue>". Sourceforge tells me it is because grug.cfg contains "search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set e933[...]", and that the solution is "sudo abiword /usr/lib/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib" to comment out the last three lines of the paragraph including UUID. I have done that on Wa
[01:53] <agike> ttOS2 and Deb6 drives, but on trying 'sudo update-grub2' I keep getting "/usr/sbin/grub-probe: cannot find device for / (is dev mounted ?)". I have run out of ideas and cannot boot into the drive containing details of high-priority current projects. Any ideas ?
[01:53] <szal> Pb__: in my experience, "good" and "OCR" are mutually exclusive
[01:54] <FloodBot1> agike: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:54] <agike> Apologies.
[01:54] <szal> agike: WattOS2?
[01:54] <agike> yep
[01:55] <w30> Pb__, I have something called ocr on my Ubuntu 11.or but I haven't used it, sorry
[01:55] <szal> never heard of
[01:55] <IdleOne> neither of those OS'es are supported in this channel. Also, I never heard of WattOS2
[01:55] <szal> that's what I thought
[01:55] <IdleOne> agike: perhaps try in #debian
[01:55] <agike> IdleOne: It is a low-energy use ubuntu distro
[01:55] <szal> !pm | Pb__
[01:56] <IdleOne> agike: sound sinteresting but not an official derivative so not supported here
[01:56] <agike> I dual boot debian and WattOs ubuntu
[01:56] <hanasaki> how do you get the menus in gnome for ubuntu like those in mint?
[01:56] <Pb__> ok, understood
[01:57] <bfish> can anyone help with getting wireless going?  Broadcomm chipset on HP Pavilion dv6
[01:57] <rsvp> why does SKYPE crash so frequently these days ?? M$ ??
[01:57] <agike> IdleOne: .. intended originally for low-power specs such as netbooks. Otherwise, ubuntu
[01:57] <zykotick9> !broadcom | bfish
[01:57] <urlin2u> hanasaki, I don't think you can like mint.
[01:58] <zykotick9> hanasaki, urlin2u there was a PPA with the mint style menu at one time...
[01:58] <IdleOne> agike: I understand but still not an official derivative. Please try their support channel if they have one.
[01:58] <w30> szal, my best ocr work comes from doing very high resolution scans to start with.
[01:58] <hanasaki> zykotick9:  thanks... what does that style? is it gnome and theme or a special program
[01:58] <hanasaki> ?
[01:59] <w30> szal, otherwise it might as well be Pig Latin.
[01:59] <zykotick9> hanasaki, it's certainly more then just a theme
[01:59] <be2ruu> ls /dev/audio*    when i input in term it say no file
[01:59] <hanasaki> it is quite nice
[01:59] <bfish> ubottu, I did everything from the link, but the wireless is still not working (I just went to make sure that I'd tried that one)
[01:59] <propman> hanasaki:  might want to try asking in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org
[02:00] <xangua> hanasaki: the original 'mint like' menu is slab and you can find it as gnome-main-menu package
[02:00] <Pb__> well, anyone know easy-to-use OCR program ? OCRFeeder isn't simply enough for me.
[02:00] <urlin2u> zykotick9,  hanasaki was this one can't find it now.
[02:00] <xangua> at least in lucid
[02:00] <urlin2u> ppa:mscore-ubuntu/ppa
[02:00] <hanasaki> slab?
[02:00] <zykotick9> urlin2u, hanasaki not sure this applies anymore but http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/install-linux-mint-main-menu-mintmenu.html
[02:00] <bfish> zykotick9, what is !broadcomm?

[02:27] <qin> pl0xy: I think there is Ubuntu help page for connection sharing. But, if your asdl have firewall, why do you need vpn, and extra firewall?

[02:37] <Morgz> froes - i may be way off here, but I'm pretty sure there is a command that can raw-rip a device into an iso file, or at least the other way round.. dd?
[02:37] <Hermies> my find /lib/modules/`uname -r` | grep snd    http://pastebin.com/RKkLW1N5
[02:38] <szal> Morgz: that won't help much, I guess
[02:38]  * szal has no friggin' clue about Blu-ray
[02:39] <Shardvex> er help
[02:39] <Morgz> szal: Example use of dd command to create an ISO disk image from a CD-ROM:
[02:39] <Morgz> dd if=/dev/sr0 of=/home/sam/myCD.iso bs=2048 conv=noerror,sync ?
[02:40] <szal> Morgz: sure that, but with that you don't have an XviD-.avi ;)
[02:40] <maheanuu> How can I stop no activity time out when I am watching a video on the computer running Ubuntu
[02:41] <maheanuu> My screen saver comes up and then I have to log in again
[02:42] <Guest79535> im new at this ok i have no sound and ive taken out my sound card to get the onbord to work and its still no ive looked far and wide to get it working
[02:42] <Guest79535> im new ok
[02:42] <t1m310rd> does anyone know why the laptop monitor cannnot turn off. i cannot just use pc out or hdmi out to hdtv/
[02:42] <Lasers> maheanuu: I use Inhibit Applet.
[02:42] <froes> Morgz, but then it would be the same structure. not the simple avi file
[02:42] <szal> !sound | Guest79535
[02:43] <Guest79535> ive done all the trube shooters
[02:43] <maheanuu> Lasers, where would I find that applet
[02:43] <Lasers> maheanuu: 11.04? I'm not sure. Usually, it's found on the panels.
[02:43] <Guest79535> !sound
[02:44] <maheanuu> No I am running 10.10
[02:44] <Guest79535> that was still no help D:
[02:44] <mangowerfer> Guest79535: post your results
[02:44] <Guest79535> of what?
[02:44] <Lasers> maheanuu: Add a new applet to the panel. "Inhibit"
[02:44] <Lasers> maheanuu: Then toggle it on.
[02:45] <maheanuu> Lasers, where would I find the panels?
[02:46] <Lasers> maheanuu: Top/bottom panels? Are you using Gnome?
 what results
[02:47] <mangowerfer> Guest79535: you said you went throgh the troubleshooting, but your card is still not working
[02:47] <Guest79535> yes ill get you thoise right now
[02:47] <mangowerfer> Guest79535: so ther must be a problem somewhere... one command or something, that is different from what they say on the webiste
[02:47] <mangowerfer> besite
[02:47] <mangowerfer> website
[02:48] <ryan_46> manheanuu did you just want the screensaver to stop forcing you to log in when the movie is playing?
[02:48] <mangowerfer> Guest79535: so tell me where your settings are not in line with the troubleshooting website
[02:48] <Guest79535> hold on
[02:49] <maheanuu> OK, I think I found it I looked under -system/preferences/screensaver and removed the check marks  for activate screen saver and also for lock computer when screen saver active gonna try it now and see what happens
[02:49] <ryan_46> right maheaunuu
[02:50] <maheanuu> The problem was that it would either bring up the screensaver and block the video and the sound would still be playing but I had to log back in to get the video back
[02:50] <Lasers> maheanuu: Disable the screensaver or use inhibit applet to prevent your computer from going to screensaver/standby mode.
[02:51] <maheanuu> lasers and Ryan I think I have it now
[02:51] <ryan_46> :) You got it

[02:53] <szal> BBKZ: try in ##windows please; we don't support Windows bootloaders
[02:53] <maheanuu> laters and thanks, sometimes I can't see the forest for the trees
[02:53] <Jason75> It's an older 17" Dell crt monitor and Intel integrated graphics chip.

[02:55] <Jason75> Anyone?
[02:57] <Jason75> Any idea how to add more resolution options to Xubuntu?

[03:00] <Hermies> on my whole sound isshue
[03:00] <mangowerfer> hm
[03:00] <Jason75> All right, then.
[03:00] <Hermies> is that what you where looking for?
[03:00] <philipballew> mangowerfer, you can use the desktop as a server, but if you want a really serious server youd want a cli system
[03:02] <mangowerfer> philipballew: ok, thank you for the info (if i'd want a serious server i'd go for debian or redhat :P - no offence) :)
[03:02] <Axs> What do you guys recommend for remote desktop other than VNC? SSH?
[03:02] <mangowerfer> Hermies: give me "lspci -v | grep snd"

[03:08] <bazhang> hermes, you've been asked to post the results of your troubleshooting
[03:08] <dbelange> APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS.THIS IS SO SCARY CAUSE IT ACTUALLYWOR
[03:08] <w30> agike, Lubuntu is promoted as light weight in hard drive usage and cpu reqirements suited to these cheap notebooks that can just barely run XP
[03:09] <hermes> i have but no one has responed ill post again   http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=8eb417854ff8b538f15ad1d8ee1b710136c8c996        http://pastebin.com/RKkLW1N5

[03:11] <Silentmyst> hey guys, has anyone had a problem marking files as executable to run in wine? i click to check the box and it just auto unchecks itself instantly... not quite sure what to do
[03:11] <ActionParsnip> Silentmyst: is the file stored on an NTFS partition by any remote chance?
[03:11] <Silentmyst> yes
[03:12] <Silentmyst> i can move it back and forth
[03:12] <ActionParsnip> Silentmyst: You cannot run your windows apps on your dual boot system using Wine, it simply won't run
[03:12] <Silentmyst> i do it with alot of things
[03:12] <ActionParsnip> Silentmyst: you will need to remount your NTFS as setting ALL files as executable so that they are set. NTFS is too primitive to hold Linux file permissions
[03:13] <person> Hey, trying to use KVM to test kernel changes, but having a hard time. Tried following this http://blog.vmsplice.net/2011/02/near-instant-kernel-development-cycle.html , but not sure what to use for the initrd argument
[03:13] <Silentmyst> thats why i put it on my ntfs partition cause i can run things in wine off my ntfs partition and then when im in widows i just run it
[03:13] <ActionParsnip> Silentmyst: Unless the app is very portable it won't work. Apps need registry keys and file in the windows dir to run, otherwise they could be pirated so easily
[03:13] <hermes> bazhang: is that what everone is telling me to show?
[03:14] <ActionParsnip> Silentmyst: you will need to remount the NTFS and make it mount so that all files are executable
[03:14] <Silentmyst> the particular program im trying to run, runs out of its own folder w/dlls ect ect
[03:14] <ActionParsnip> Silentmyst: yes, its portable :)
[03:14] <noneabove1182> hey guys i was wondering if ubuntu 10.10 had a problem with radeon GPUs like 11.04 does, or if the problem will be fixed in 11.10? slash where do i find patch notes or future patch notes
[03:14] <w30> agike, getting the iso to wattos now to check it out, thanks
[03:15] <tightwork> person: should be able to find the corresponding initramfs from /boot/
[03:15] <Silentmyst> but... i'll move it and to linux partition and see if i can enable exe and run w/wine
[03:15] <Ubuntu> noneabove1182: 11.04 fixed my hd5770
[03:15] <Silentmyst> or remount
[03:15] <Silentmyst> thx
[03:16] <agike> w30: no probs, enjoy.
[03:16] <noneabove1182> Ubuntu weird cause with 11.04 i got black screen majority of times with my HD 6770M i think it is
[03:17] <Ubuntu> noneabove1182: is hd 6770M evergreen model?
[03:18] <noneabove1182> Ubuntu in some previous errors that i got with WUBI before installing with liveCD i remember seeing something about evergreen
[03:18] <ActionParsnip> noneabove1182: try the boot option:  nomodeset
[03:19] <person> Tried this kvm -kernel arch/x86/boot/bzImage -initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.38-10-generic -append "console=ttyS0" -nographic and got a bunch of file not found errors, then it puts me into BusyBox

[03:19] <ActionParsnip> noneabove1182: ok
[03:19] <ActionParsnip> noneabove1182: could also try using safe VGA until you get the proprietary driver in
[03:20] <triplc> hi all
[03:20] <noneabove1182> ActionParsnip to be honest, im  not entirely sure what that means... haha
[03:20] <noneabove1182> ActionParsnip will my graphics card be more likely to work with 11.04 or 10.10 ?
[03:21] <ActionParsnip> noneabove1182: there is a bootoption doc online, your video card may not like the open driver on the cd so you can force it to use vesa and get sorted
[03:21] <ActionParsnip> noneabove1182: not sure I dont use ati stuff
[03:21] <triplc> please suggest a battery monitor. i just install a slim (no gnome) ubuntu 10.04 but do not know what application for displaying/monitoring the battery. i installed "ibam" (as read from google) but when run, it say "no apm data available". maybe ibam is not ... please recommend an battery mon
[03:22] <noneabove1182> ActionParsnip can you direct me to a site of where to learn about that ?
[03:22] <ActionParsnip> triplc: could use a gdesklet
[03:22] <ActionParsnip> !bootoption | noneabove1182 why don't you try websearching YOURSEFL some?
[03:23] <dangbarry> triplc, or a system tray such as trayer gnome-power-manager
[03:23] <noneabove1182> ActionParsnip i just asked i could have myself but if you knew where to find it it would just save time...
[03:24] <ActionParsnip> noneabove1182: the link has the details
[03:24] <Hermies> ActionParsnip: since your active could you help me after?

[03:49] <ActionParsnip> mcbtay: how do the connect to get the upload feature of the server?
[03:49] <seclm193> mcbtay, i beleive it's 777
[03:49] <dangbarry> Eryn_1982_FL, no never, whats it like? im loving the new kde4
[03:49] <seclm193> mcbtay, might be wrong though
[03:49] <mcbtay> ActionParsnip, not sure what you're asking
[03:50] <Bookman> urlin2u, maybe you have to get to a high level to solve my issue?
[03:51] <mcbtay> seclm193, would the script need to have those permissions, or the folder? or both?
[03:51] <urlin2u> Bookman, I doubt it I can do it. ;-)
[03:51] <Bookman> urlin2u, it just won't burn correctly.  Or, more correctly it won't boot from what unetbootin burns
[03:51] <seclm193> mcbtay, i think just the script, but i'm not a 100% sure
[03:52] <urlin2u> Bookman, did you check the md5sum?
[03:52] <Bookman> Yup, it is fine
[03:52] <ActionParsnip> mvbwell, a webserver is a broadcast service, if your users want to upload, they will connect differently to a web page which you simply view
[03:52] <ActionParsnip> mcbtay: ^
[03:52] <urlin2u> Bookman, have you ever used unetbootin?
[03:52] <bobweaver> Hi there I am playing with my boot splash right now and having some troubles . I have a nvidia-current installed but it don't show up in lsmod only nouveau I tried to blacklist this Nothing stays loaded I try sudo rmmod nothing says it is running I drop x and still nothing
[03:52] <mcbtay> ActionParsnip, it's a PHP script, if that helps you?
[03:52] <Bookman> urlin2u, yes in the past I have
[03:53] <MagicJ> mcbtay: are you going to use the FILE type from a web page to upload - if so the issue is what permissins does your script thatreceives the file need
[03:53] <dangbarry> Eryn_1982_FL, there is an irc channel for stump on freenode #stumpwm

[03:53] <mcbtay> MagicJ, i'm using an HTML input of type file if that's what you mean? not too experienced here sorry :)
[03:53] <dangbarry> Eryn_1982_FL, thats prob the best place to ask!
[03:54] <methods> what is libpng3 supposed to be ?
[03:54] <theadmin> methods: A library for PNG support in many applications.
[03:54] <ActionParsnip> mcbtay: do they authenticate at all?
[03:54] <urlin2u> Bookman, here is another usb loader, use gparted to format the drive if you choose the multisystem app. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/
[03:54] <MagicJ> mcbtay:  then the issuoes is merely to set the permissions for the img directory sich that your script has write access.  To some degree this will depend what user the script runs as
[03:55] <MagicJ> mcbtay: if the script runs as a specific user then you will need to make sure that user has permots
[03:55] <yaaase> so, question:  I recently wiped Windows 7 and installed Ubuntu on my laptop.  However, I have noticed that DVDs play terribly (choppy, poor-quality, etc) in Ubuntu when they used to play beautifully in win7.  is this just a linux limitation?
[03:55] <ActionParsnip> yaaase: what video chip do you use?
[03:55] <dangbarry> yaaase, vlc
[03:55] <yaaase> ActionParsnip: what command will tell me?
[03:55] <ActionParsnip> yaaase: did you install the DVD decoder?
[03:55] <yaaase> dangbarry: vlc = ?
[03:56] <yaaase> ActionParsnip: yes, I did
[03:56] <methods> yea but there should only be 1.2 , 1.4 and the latest is 1.5 ... when i apt-cache search i only see libpng12 not even 14 .. both 1.2 and 1.4 are legacy.. 1.5.4 is the latest stable.. and as far as 1.3 I doin't even see that
[03:56] <methods> listed on the site.. also the ubuntu list for libpng3 doesnt' include a -dev package..  even looking at their ftp site I don't see a 1.3 ftp://ftp.simplesystems.org/pub/png/src/
[03:56] <ActionParsnip> yaaase: sudo lshw -C display     use a pastebin to host the text so you don't spam the channel
[03:56] <yaaase> ActionParsnip: I also then deleted (on ubuntu forums advice ~/.dvdcss
[03:56] <Bookman> urlin2u, I shall check that out, thanks!
[03:57] <urlin2u> Bookman, I use it with a 16 gig thumb it is a n=multibooter pretty cool.
[03:57] <yaaase> http://pastebin.com/j86VQ0BD
[03:58] <ActionParsnip> yaaase: what apps have you tried DVD playback in?
[03:58] <yaaase> ActionParsnip: just the default "Movie Player" so far
[03:58] <ActionParsnip> yaaase: are you using gnome desktop?
[03:58] <methods> theadmin:  ??
[03:58] <yaaase> ActionParsnip: yes - ubuntu (classic)
[03:58] <ActionParsnip> yaaase: try:  sudo apt-get install vlc gnome-mplayer
[03:58] <theadmin> methods: You asked what libpng is
[03:58] <theadmin> methods: I answered
[03:58] <methods> see my response above
[03:59] <ActionParsnip> yaaase: then try those, see if it's different
[03:59] <blacksunseven> Things aren't going well.
[03:59] <theadmin> methods: Oh, never mind then
[03:59] <b0whunter> ok
[03:59] <blacksunseven> I've removed the driver and run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to generate a new xorg.conf
[03:59] <yaaase> ActionParsnip: ty, installing now.  what will they be called (if I alt/f2 to them)?
[03:59] <blacksunseven> But I'm still getting a black screen
[03:59] <ActionParsnip> yaaase: as I wrote above...
[03:59] <blacksunseven> also, xorg.conf is empty...
[04:00] <edbian> blacksunseven: How sure are you the correct driver is loading?  (the open source one)
[04:00] <edbian> blacksunseven: also this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/BlankScreen
[04:01] <methods> theadmin:    This is a dummy package provided for compatibility purposes. Please use libpng12-dev instead.
[04:01] <methods> I'm at a loss
[04:01] <methods> libpng3  This package is superseded by libpng12-0, and is provided only for transitional purposes.
[04:01] <kieppie> hi all. I run mostly an Ubuntu/Debian network, & a pfSense firewall. I'm looking for a way of specifying my apt-cache proxy in the DHCP options. any ideas, please?
[04:02] <blacksunseven> edbian, not too sure, i just know the ati one isnt become i removed it through hardware drivers in system>admin.
[04:02] <yaboo> can I stillrun gnome2 on 11.04
[04:02] <yaboo> unity is woeful
[04:02] <methods> is ubuntu ever going to provide libpng14 or 15 ?
[04:03] <edbian> blacksunseven: There are 3 drivers,  radeon (open source), fglrx (proprietary), ati (which is just a wrapper and will load fglrx)
[04:03] <zykotick9> kieppie, i don't think a dhcp server can provide info for apt.conf
[04:03] <ActionParsnip> yaboo: Natty uses gnome 2
[04:03] <ActionParsnip> methods: you may find a ppa
[04:03] <kieppie> zykotick9: thanks. I'm not familiar enough with DHCP & it's options to make that call
[04:03] <blacksunseven> edbian, how can i see which one i'm using?
[04:03] <yaboo> Acthanks
[04:04] <ActionParsnip> yaboo: if you think Unity is a replacement desktop for gnome then you are misinformed
[04:04] <edbian> blacksunseven: lsmod | grep "drivername" or sudo lspci -k   (and look through the list)
[04:04] <methods> i don't want to find one i just want to know what's going on because it's such an old version
[04:04] <yaboo> ActionParsnip, we just installed here at work, and know, there is no way management will allow people to use unity
[04:04] <blacksunseven> 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS880 [Radeon HD 4200]
[04:04] <blacksunseven> 	Kernel modules: radeon
[04:05] <Internetinator> Yeah, you can still use gnome 2 with 11.04
[04:05] <edbian> blacksunseven: in lspci the 'kernel modules' list is driver that are available.  the 'drivers list' is the driver this is actually being used.  in linux modules = drivers
[04:05] <ActionParsnip> methods: if it works then its fine, if there are security reasons, dependancy or other significant reasons it will get added
[04:05] <yaboo> Internetinator, thanks
[04:05] <ActionParsnip> yaboo: then change DE or log off and log in to Ubuntu Classic, Unity2D will replace Classic in Oneiric
[04:06] <yaboo> installed 10.10 desktop looks good, updated to11.04 and unity,is just not there for us
[04:06] <Internetinator> When you log in, just select Ubuntu Classic from the session thing
[04:06] <cyberwave> why are there three floodbots?
[04:06] <yaboo> understand the theory, but not yet
[04:06] <ActionParsnip> cyberwave: so peole don't spam the channel with pastes
[04:06] <blacksunseven> edbian, so no driver is in use?
[04:06] <cyberwave> but don't you need only one flood bot?  why are there three?
[04:06] <ActionParsnip> yaboo: there is more than gnome to use for the DE
[04:07] <yaboo> ActionParsnip, DE?
[04:07] <ActionParsnip> cyberwave: not sure there personally :)
[04:07] <edbian> blacksunseven: If there is no 'drivers' list then yeah no driver.  There is probably some really low level basic driver that just shows text or something
[04:07] <ActionParsnip> yaboo: desktop environment = DE
[04:07] <than_rua> i don't know, i use Gnome 3 on kubuntu 11.04, will type on Gnome must use key space...
[04:07] <ActionParsnip> yaboo: KDE, LXDE, Gnome etc
[04:07] <yaboo> ActionParsnip, thanks
[04:07] <blacksunseven> edbian, yeah, no drivers list
[04:07] <ActionParsnip> yaboo: in Linux you have choice, you don't have to use Unity
[04:08] <edbian> blacksunseven: That makes sense to me.  I would just sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-radeon   (to install the radeon driver) and then s
[04:08] <yaboo> ActionParsnip, thanks go back to classic, assume gnome2, same desktop as 10.10
[04:08] <millertimek1a2m3> hey, what kind of application can I use to set up a wiki server?"
[04:08] <edbian> blacksunseven: and then reboot
[04:09] <edbian> blacksunseven: usually one can 'sudo modprobe <driverName>' to turn a driver on but that doesn't work with video cards
[04:09] <methods> ActionParsnip:  would be nice to know what reasons.. i got people complaining to me that my game is linked against 1.2 when it's being fazed out by many other distributions..
[04:09] <Bookman> urlin2u, I'm trying my first burn now with this program
[04:09] <blacksunseven> edbian, apt didn't do anything since it thinks its already installed - should i remove and re-install?
[04:09] <edbian> blacksunseven: no that's fine, sudo modprobe radeon to try to get it to be used. then restart (what modules were listed?)
[04:11] <blacksunseven> edbian, modprobe doesn't appear to have loaded the module
[04:11] <ActionParsnip> methods: not sure there dude, you may fnid a ppa with it on which you can update with. Its all I can personally suggest. Maybe others can advise
[04:11] <urlin2u> Bookman, cool hope it works.
[04:11] <blacksunseven> the only module listed is "radeon"
[04:11] <mark49> Hi! Does someone know if the "invisible mouse pointer after suspend" bug has been crushed in Natty?
[04:11] <edbian> blacksunseven: no, it won't immediately.  run the modprobe then restart
[04:11] <blacksunseven> oh, ok, doing now
[04:11] <blakebrinkley> hello! I was wondering if anyone could help me fix a grub error on 11.04
[04:11] <edbian> blacksunseven: If I knew radeon was installed I would not have had you install it again :P
[04:12] <ActionParsnip> mark49: if you rmmod then modprobe the mouse driver, does it reappear?
[04:12]  * edbian is confused....
[04:12] <millertimek1a2m3> nevermind found mediawiki
[04:13] <paijem-cantik> :d
[04:13] <mark49> ActionParsnip: sorry, I'm to n00b to follow your question...
[04:14] <ActionParsnip> mark49: use a terminal to unload and load the module driving the mouse
[04:15] <blacksunseven> edbian, no good, same output/problems
[04:15] <blacksunseven> edbian, do i need to have X running for a driver to load?
[04:15] <edbian> blacksunseven: I'm confused.  Are you in recovery mode right now?  I noticed to reboot you had to leave the IRC room.
[04:15] <edbian> blacksunseven: no, a driver being loaded should allow X to run.
[04:16] <blakebrinkley> Hello?
[04:16] <blacksunseven> so I can remote to my computer and work on it through ssh and such (which is where my xchat is running)

[04:17] <mark49> :)
[04:17] <theadmin> mark49: lolwut?
[04:17] <Axs> is there any awy to create virtual monitors? I run Ubuntu on an ESXi machine and when I VNC in I want it to appear as if I have two monitors
[04:17] <Eryn_1983_FL> dangbarry:  if you are loging kde4 then  this won't work for ya lol its a tiling  desktop manager
[04:17] <ActionParsnip> blacksunseven: yes, simply connect with:  ssh -X -C username@server
[04:17] <edbian> blacksunseven: you can ssh to the machine and should see some driver via lspci -k   or lsmod regardless of if X is actually running.  I'm confused though. If you're only sshing to the machine how do you know that you have a black screen?
[04:17] <mark49> ok. I get that rmmod removes the driver
[04:17] <blacksunseven> no, i'm not only sshing, i've got it running on another monitor
[04:17] <mark49> but... How is it named?
[04:17] <blakebrinkley> am I in the wrong place to ask for help?
[04:17] <blacksunseven> ActionParsnip, thanks but I'm already doing that :P
[04:17] <mark49> let's man rmmod...
[04:17] <edbian> blacksunseven: ok.  So, have you tried nomodeset?
[04:18] <dangbarry> Eryb_1983_FL, for tiling i use DWM.
[04:18] <blacksunseven> edbian, yes, it's been set since i started the troubleshooting
[04:18] <edbian> blacksunseven: Then I'm not sure.  I can recommend you ask in #radeon or somemore in here
[04:18] <blacksunseven> ok edbian, i appreciate the help
[04:18] <edbian> blacksunseven: They will almost def ask for your /var/log/X.org log
[04:19] <switch10_> I lost the clock/calendar applet in the upper right hand corner.  I cant figure out how to get it back in unity.  11.04

[04:27] <Lasers> ru6yxx: What program?
[04:27] <ru6yxx> chatzilla
[04:28] <Lasers> That's in Firefox? (extension)
[04:28] <ru6yxx> Yes
[04:29] <mark49> @search baxter evolution
[04:29] <Lasers> ru6yxx: Dunno. I don't even know if it's a real client -- but it can do the job though.
[04:29] <mark49> @search Evolution
[04:29] <dangbarry> ru6yxx, or xchat! you can turn it off it the preferences
[04:30] <ru6yxx> Thanks done it
[04:31] <theadmin> mark49: Stop this.
[04:32] <Polah> How can I get Bluefish to stop creating <filename>~ files every time I edit something.
[04:32] <dangbarry> save it and exit corrextly
[04:33] <meegooo> hey I got questions about patching and compiling
[04:34] <Polah> dangbarry: It makes it as soon as I open a file to edit and nothing is ever done to remove it.
[04:34] <zykotick9> Polah, (UNTESTED) Bluefish - Edit / Preferences - Files - uncheck "Create backup files during file save". would be my guess.
[04:35] <robbmunson> zykotick9, TESTED: You're right. :)
[04:35] <dangbarry> Polah, i don't use bluefish, i use vim, vim does this when i have a file i am editing that has not been saved.
[04:35] <zykotick9> robbmunson, thanks ;)
[04:36] <Polah> zykotick9, yeah, that sorted it. Don't know how I missed that before
[04:37] <Polah> dangbarry: Never used vim, used vi and I've never seen it do that.
[04:39] <dangbarry> Polah, but you can turn it off in the vimrc
[04:41] <theadmin> dangbarry: You can :set nobackup
[04:41] <theadmin> dangbarry: And :set nowritebackup
[04:41] <theadmin> dangbarry: That'd stop it
[04:42] <dangbarry> theadmin:  I already have that done!
[04:42] <dangbarry> ty anyway!
[04:42] <theadmin> dangbarry: I also find it useful to :set nu, but that's up to you xD
[04:42] <ananda> hello
[04:43] <dangbarry> set nu, i don't have that done, whats that do?
[04:43] <theadmin> dangbarry: Line numbers
[04:43] <dangbarry> oh right, yeah.. done!
[04:43] <paijem-cantik> hello ananda
[04:43] <paijem-cantik> :d
[04:43] <paijem-cantik> welcome

[04:48] <dangbarry> theadmin:  coo!

[05:37] <uw_> i have had it working on here before a year or so ago
[05:38] <uw_> ActionParsnip, is there a drop down under system to configure this?
[05:38] <uw_> or something like that?
[05:38] <urlin2u> teavirtus, have you run sudo update-grub
[05:39] <teavirtus> sure and it looks fine : Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-3.0.0-0300rc2-generic

[05:43] <widewake> hello, recently my browsing speed has been cut in half, my page loading via mozilla and other applications are taking minutes too long.. no idea what it could be, i have full bars
[05:44] <ActionParsnip> ixntb1__: no need, should be ready to rock
[05:44] <linuxuz3r> hi widewake
[05:44] <widewake> linuxuz3r,  hello :)
[05:45] <linuxuz3r> widewake, have you tried resetting your modem and getting a new ip?
[05:45] <ixntb1__> ActionParsnip: any special sound config i should do?
[05:45] <ActionParsnip> uw_: not sure, let me search some more
[05:46] <widewake> test
[05:46] <ActionParsnip> ixntb1__: is the sound device set as the correct device in sound prefs?
[05:46] <widewake> linuxuz3r,  yes ive tried, and im also sharing this connection with others, they have not experienced the connection being slow
[05:47] <ActionParsnip> uw_: http://forum.ubuntu-it.org/index.php?topic=423913.0  maybe
[05:48] <ActionParsnip> uw_: http://www.archlinux.it/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=47836

[05:48] <widewake> linuxuz3r,  im only using ubuntu 10.10
[05:48] <linuxuz3r> ok
[05:49] <linuxuz3r> widewake, have you tried speed test in your browser to see if your connection is up to speed
[05:49] <widewake> linuxuz3r,  have not
[05:49] <ActionParsnip> widewake: if you change DNS, is it faster?
[05:50] <widewake> ActionParsnip, not sure how too? do you mean change IP ?
[05:50] <ActionParsnip> widewake: you can test by running:  gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf    deleting ALL text and adding:  nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:51] <soreau> Hey guys, my time in gnome-panel is one hour ahead for some reason on one of my machines. The time zone is correct and it's set to update from the internet, but it's been like this for a few days now
[05:51] <soreau> just started last week
[05:51] <celestial> hi everyone anyone know how to install and use the gnome volume manager and applet in lxde
[05:51] <ActionParsnip> widewake: save the new file, close gedit then test the web
[05:51] <theadmin> soreau: DST problems?
[05:52] <soreau> I can't even manually change it
[05:52] <soreau> it just goes back again :P
[05:52] <widewake> ActionParsnip,  should that make a difference in speed?
[05:52] <soreau> theadmin: Probably..
[05:53] <soreau> theadmin: Where are DST settings for this thing?
[05:53] <linuxuz3r> widewake, i think so
[05:53] <ActionParsnip> widewake: I've tried it on launchpad and it has. Very strange
[05:53] <theadmin> soreau: Wish I'd remember. I haven't used Gnome for a few months now
[05:53] <soreau> theadmin: Ok well I have to go to sleep an hour ago ;)
[05:53] <soreau> good night
[05:54] <theadmin> soreau: Night.
[05:54] <Internetinator> So how do I get permission to view the root of my computer
[05:54] <widewake> im not fully sure, but it seems as if my browser is responding quicker
[05:55] <ActionParsnip> Internetinator: just run:  nautilus /     and it will show the root of the file system
[05:56] <widewake> i think it might ^_^ i'll keep messing around. thanks guys
[05:57] <feng_> I use vim + ctags in ubuntu Linux to browse source code, when there are more than one implement , say ioremap,  the vim just give the first implement , not giving a list of implement like in fedora. Why?
[05:57] <dangbarry> hey, I was wondering if anyone thinks that the following are security issue:  .bashrc .xinitrc and all .sh files. for example    echo "chromium lemonparty.org" >> .bashrc"  same with any .sh or .xinitrc.. by the way don't not go onto that website, its visually distrubing! last time it was (a bastard friend).. you could do other things like download from git, or wgets. and run them through .sh bashrc .xinitrc. This is easy stopped, by changing the premissions "
[05:59] <ActionParsnip> dangbarry: you can change permissions if you are concerned
[05:59] <dangbarry> i did!
[06:00] <susundbe1g> Yeah, and they are not ment for 'public editing' -- i mean they are ment for running commands, that is the designed property. You cannot change that ..
[06:00] <dangbarry> but should the not be by default!
[06:00] <ActionParsnip> dangbarry: log a bug if you suspect one
[06:01] <ActionParsnip> dangbarry: ".sh files" doesn't mean much in linux either ;)
[06:03] <dangbarry> its not that thing this is a bug, quite the opposite. i love the fact that we can do tonnes of things through these files. does nobody think that they should be read only?
[06:03] <susundbe1g> No? They are ment for editing?
[06:04] <dangbarry> But i mean to edit them, require sudo!
[06:04] <susundbe1g> i mean your $home/.bashrc should not be writable (or maybe even readable) for some other user but for your self sure
[06:04] <susundbe1g> well /etc/ stuff should require sudo and they afaik do
[06:04] <susundbe1g> but stuff in your /home/ is ment for user editing, and should not require sudo
[06:05] <envygeeks> everything in /etc/ is readable except for system user files (passwd, groups, shadow)
[06:05] <ActionParsnip> susundbe1g: the aliases in ~/.bashrc can be poisoned maliciously as dangbarry states
[06:05] <dangbarry> well, if you had friends like have!
[06:05] <johndo> If I was that paranoid wouldn't it just be easier to encrypt my home directory?
[06:05] <dangbarry> perhaps!
[06:06] <SinnerNyx> ok so I have a VM that I move around alot. When I do I need to reset the network interface names (because it detects the adapter on the new machine as a new adapter). To reset it I empty /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and restart the VM. Does this have any negative effects? Should I be doing this another way?
[06:06] <envygeeks> SinnerNyx: no as it should be regenerated automatically by the system
[06:07] <envygeeks> SinnerNyx: by that I mean it's not negative
[06:07] <BTH> Hello, everyone!
[06:07] <ActionParsnip> johndo: no as the data is decrypted and fully editable by the logged in user
[06:08] <envygeeks> ActionParsnip: only the user that the folder is encrypted to, not just /any/ user, so your point is moot
[06:08] <feng_>  I use vim + ctags in ubuntu Linux to browse source code, when there are more than one implement , say ioremap,  the vim just give the first implement , not giving a list of implement like in fedora. Why?
[06:08] <feng_> can anybody answer my question?
[06:09] <SinnerNyx> thx envygeeks
[06:10] <dangbarry> feng_: go to vims freenode channel #vim
[06:11] <dangbarry> feng_: perhaps they can answer you there!
[06:12] <ActionParsnip> envygeeks: sure, but an unwitting user may run a script, or a javascript applet may be ran by a user and edit his/her file.
[06:12] <|newbie|> ciao a tutti

[06:13] <Syria> Hello there, I am trying to install Meerkat 10.10 on my desktop using an external hard disk but I get a message that says "unable to find a medium that contains live file system" Md5 is okay ! and I have used usb startup disc creator.
[06:13] <ActionParsnip> envygeeks: not moot in any way
[06:13] <pato> hello
[06:13] <starlon> how can I figure out which device I need to change permissions on so I can use Wireshark to analyze communications?
[06:13] <ActionParsnip> hi pato
[06:13] <ActionParsnip> starlon: sudo lshw -C network
[06:13] <robbmunson> !hi | pato
[06:14] <ActionParsnip> robbmunson: that was removed, it was deemed too impersonal
[06:14] <pato> sorry to bother everyone. I got this message on my virtual machine, just now, and I have no idea what it means.
[06:14] <pato> cifs vfs: rsize 32768 too large using maxbufsize
[06:14] <pato> I tried to google for an answer, but not many available
[06:14] <robbmunson> ActionParsnip, showing my age, lol.
[06:14] <ActionParsnip> robbmunson: yeah I was kinda freaked when I saw it missing too :)
[06:15] <ActionParsnip> pato: what are you doing to cause the message?
[06:16] <pato> ActionParsnip: Well, the VM was completely locked up. I had to kill the kvm process and restart the machine. when I checked the console to see if it was back up again I saw that error
[06:18] <damno> compiz key bindings for commands aren't working.. :-/
[06:18] <ActionParsnip> pato: mentions rsize https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cifs-utils/+bug/810606
[06:18] <envygeeks> ActionParsnip: every engine that could parse that javascript file has protections that prevent that, even in a home directory.
[06:19] <pato> ActionParsnip: let me read it.
[06:19] <damno> compiz key bindings for commands aren't working.. :-/
[06:19] <gry> damno, did they work before?
[06:19] <damno> yes
[06:19] <damno> gry: yes
[06:19] <gry> damno, when did they stop working?
[06:19] <damno> right now.. when I tried adding one more
[06:20] <gry> if you remove it, do they work again?
[06:21] <Syria> Unable to find a medium that contains live file system ubuntu ! what is this?
[06:21] <damno> gry: once I add them and try pressing the key nothing happens. once I quit ccsm and open it again the key bindings aren't there.. like nothing was assigned.
[06:23] <cyphase> how can i install python 2.5.2 on natty alongside 2.7?
[06:23] <envygeeks> cyphase: you compile your own python and name the binary and all it's folders python2.5
[06:24] <cyphase> envygeeks, besides that :). preferably a repo..
[06:24] <envygeeks> afaik python2.5 is dead, everyone is moved to 2.6
[06:24] <envygeeks> or (rarely) 3
[06:25] <pato> ActionParsnip: I think I found the case based on that post. I am guessing the windows backend is not playing along sometimes, and the cifs mount has too big of a parameter. I'll see if I reconfigure that mount point and fix the problem. Thank you for your help on this.
[06:30] <SubjectOne> goodmorning
[06:31] <linuxuz3r> im out
[06:35] <liul> hello
[06:38] <yaboo> I wish to modify the xorg.conf config or what is it now so I can get the extra resolutions on my monitor
[06:44] <alter> оксана
[06:45] <johndo> niet
[06:45] <yaboo> I seem not to have a xorg.conf, is there different way for 11.04
[06:45] <fr500> yaboo: it's mostly autoconfigured now
[06:46] <fr500> yaboo: but you can create it anyway afaik
[06:47] <johndo> I tried it with the bodhilinux fork by doin g X -configure though and it broke the display settings.
[06:48] <johndo> it went from low resolution to no resolution
[06:49] <Dopeamin> hello
[06:49] <flametai1> Anyone know any really good websites for themes? =/

[06:51] <gry> flametai1: ^
[06:51] <flametai1> Thank you gry :D
[06:52] <oisgam> hello there
[06:52] <gry> flametai1: Sure.
[06:52] <gry> oisgam: Hi!
[06:53] <oisgam> hey guys i'm new user of ubuntu and i was wondering if there´s any way to get gnome 3 keeping unity?
[06:54] <Lasers> oisgam: You can't have both.
[06:54] <milamber> !gnome3 | oisgam
[06:54] <oisgam> T_T ok ...
[06:54] <johndo> but if you really like the dock I've had some luck with dockbarx
[06:55] <oisgam> i got docky and works good with unity
[06:55] <_NJSDDngddsg> Hello
[06:55] <_NJSDDngddsg> I am using Linux Mint right now and I think to change to Ubuntu. Should I change to Ubuntu ?
[06:56] <gry> _NJSDDngddsg: if you like
[06:57] <_NJSDDngddsg> gry: Mint and Ubuntu areb oth okay. I would change to ubuntu because i have got problems with mints owner
[06:57] <fr500> mint's owner?
[06:57] <fr500> as in personal issues?
[06:57] <_NJSDDngddsg> yes
[06:58] <gry> _NJSDDngddsg: if you like ubuntu, then change
[06:58] <_NJSDDngddsg> i like both
[06:58] <fr500> _NJSDDngddsg: pretty much the same thing mate
[06:59] <milamber> _NJSDDngddsg: is there a reason to change?
[06:59] <urlin2u> _NJSDDngddsg, your obviously pining to talk about your problems don't do it here.
[06:59] <_NJSDDngddsg> milamber: personal problems with clement lefebvre, mint owner, this is the only
[07:00] <urlin2u> _NJSDDngddsg, this s not a mint anything s=channel stop it.
[07:00] <_NJSDDngddsg> milamber
[07:00] <milamber> _NJSDDngddsg: that means no then. in my experience change for change sake is not something to do for anything that matters. come on back if you try ubuntu and have support questions :)
[07:01] <oisgam> well also i have some issues, and i wanna know how to solve them. once i've configured the compizcube and the compiz effects and all that stuff the loading screen of ubuntu look creeppy and show somo messages but they disapear too fast i can read them
[07:01] <fr500> _NJSDDngddsg: if you have issues... well then change
[07:01] <fr500> while there are important differences, for the common user it's all skin deep
[07:02] <oisgam> i don wanna change i´m the other guy
[07:02] <sheepherd> so ive got those files on my external hd which are executables. when inside the mounted device they dont have chmod x but when moved to ~ they are. is that some kind of security feature?
[07:02]  * stjohnmedrano is away: Away lang!.
[07:02] <milamber> sheepherd: what are the filesystems?
[07:03] <sheepherd> ah! gimme a sec
[07:03] <milamber> sheepherd: the external is probably fat which doesn't support executable bit
[07:04] <fr500> sheepherd: what kind of executables?
[07:04] <fr500> .exe?
[07:05] <sheepherd> filesystem is fuseblk
[07:05] <sheepherd> @milaber ^
[07:05] <fr500> not likely
[07:05] <fr500> ntfs fat ext3 ext4 are likely
[07:06] <questionsabout> Hello
[07:06] <milamber> sheepherd: that is how an ntfs system is reported. to see the fs type, do: sudo fdisk -l
[07:06] <JoeR1> hello
[07:06] <sheepherd> fr500, http://goo.gl/1GT40
[07:06] <questionsabout> I am questionsabout, my prename is questions and my aftername is about, that makes questionsabout(buntu)
[07:07] <questionsabout> I am questionsabout, my prename is questions and my aftername is about, that makes questionsabout(ubuntu)
[07:07] <questionsabout> I have got some questions. Can you answer them me?
[07:07] <iceroot> !ask | questionsabout
[07:07] <sveinse> What setting controls that windows maximizes if I drag them to the top edge?
[07:07] <questionsabout> Well i have many questions
[07:07] <sheepherd> ok so its really ntfs
[07:07] <questionsabout> so i will asked all of them and number them
[07:08] <milamber> sheepherd: correct, which doesn't support the executable bit, which is why the files can't/won't show it
[07:08] <JoeR1> No one needs to remind me that this is NOT the wine room therefore I know this is a long shot but I was hoping someone might have some insight into lag issues I am having with Starcraft Brood War under wine.
[07:08] <sheepherd> gotta write down that command. having a lot of fun with the CLI atm :)
[07:09] <questionsabout> 1.) I want to change to Ubuntu. 2.) I alreeady had linux. my pc has a ssd. 3.) i hate the desktop wall of compiz.4.) i need a stable system. 5.) unity is okay if i change the numbers of workspaces form 4 to 1
[07:09] <milamber> sheepherd: when working with filesystems/mounts, df is another good one
[07:09] <questionsabout> Which Ubuntu should I use ß
[07:10] <tensorpudding> questionsabout: you can use natty, and configure compiz the way you want
[07:10] <sheepherd> milamber, makes sense, ty! you think its a good idea to reformat that drive to ext4? since it would better fit ubuntu and is overall superior afaik
[07:10] <tensorpudding> questionsabout: no guarantees that it will be stable to your desires though
[07:10] <questionsabout> yes and do you think !!:!= is not stable qnough
[07:10] <tensorpudding> questionsabout: but no ubuntu has ever been that stable
[07:10] <tensorpudding> that i haven't had a bug
[07:10] <JoeR1> what number is natty? ( god I hate those stupid animal based nick names)
[07:10] <tensorpudding> 11.04
[07:10] <milamber> questionsabout: that was really only one question, natty is the current release, but the !lts (10.04) is *generally* considered more stable
[07:10] <JoeR1> ok
[07:10] <questionsabout> JoeR!. !":=$
[07:10] <JoeR1> thanks
[07:10] <tensorpudding> the lts will lack hardware support for the newest stuff
[07:10] <questionsabout> JoeR!. 12.04
[07:10] <milamber> sheepherd: if you want any type of windows compatibility i would leave it as is
[07:11] <JoeR1> 12? I dodn't know they had a 12 yet
[07:11] <milamber> !natty
[07:11] <bullgard4_> '~$ sudo cfdisk' lists 5 partitions with Flag=NC. What does 'NC' stand for?
[07:12] <questionsabout> yes and do you think 11-10 is not stable qnough
[07:12] <sheepherd> milamber, ah right... win cant read that. i think about it
[07:13] <JoeR1> Anyway, I am having some lag issues with Brood War in wine and yes I know about the appdb and #winehq but they were fruitless and this room always has a high population
[07:13] <milamber> !11.10
[07:13] <mickeythemeow> i just installed 11.04
[07:13] <mickeythemeow> and the gui is .......scary
[07:14] <mickeythemeow> i'm lost in new gui
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> mickeythemeow: log off and select Ubuntu Classic as the session
[07:14] <milamber> mickeythemeow: you can choose 'classic' at login
[07:14] <questionsabout> mickeythemeow yes the new gui is some really shit
[07:14] <tensorpudding> mickeythemeow: omg!ubuntu did a guided tour of it
[07:14] <questionsabout> never seen such a shit before
[07:14] <tensorpudding> mickeythemeow: let me find the link for you
[07:14] <JoeR1> mickeythemeow, I didn't care for the mac-ish feel of the gui so I reconfigured
[07:14] <tensorpudding> !language | questionsabout
[07:15] <tensorpudding> mickeythemeow: http://omgubuntu.co.uk/natty/
[07:15] <mickeythemeow> i changed to classic and now it's better :)
[07:15] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: hardly mac-ish. The dock in mac os is on the bottom ;-)
[07:16] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, my dock was on the bottom, I got rid of it in favor of a more MS style
[07:16] <mickeythemeow> thanks guy brb
[07:16] <tensorpudding> mickeythemeow: ubuntu 11.10 will not have classic mode, but two different unity modes
[07:16] <Syria> Unable to find a medium that contains live file system ubuntu  :(
[07:17] <wsagent> Hi
[07:17] <JoeR1> anyway, am I getting the cold shoulder on my wine question because it is off-topic?
[07:17] <ActionParsnip> Syria: did you md5 test the iso you downloaded?
[07:18] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: wine is on topic as it is in the official ubuntu repos
[07:19] <Syria> ActionParsnip:  ٍSure, I am trying to install it using an external hard disc and used ubuntu usb start up creator.
[07:19] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, well I have had people bust my hump in this room for asking wine questions so I can never be sure
[07:19] <fr500> JoeR1: with wine, as a general rule, your mileage may vary
[07:19] <JoeR1> fr500 - I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean
[07:20] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: did you check the appdb for compatibility?
[07:20] <fr500> JoeR1: wine is wonderful, but results are never guarranteed
[07:20] <fr500> JoeR1: and to your question, define lag
[07:20] <fr500> ?
[07:20] <fr500> is it low FPS, or real lag as in high ping?
[07:20] <JoeR1>  ActionParsnip As I stated before, Yes I did check the appdb and #winehq before coming here
[07:21] <JoeR1> fr500 - inexplicable frameskip
[07:21] <fr500> single player or MP?
[07:21] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: i didn't see that, look when I joined the channel ;-)
[07:21] <JoeR1> single, I have yet to go bnet
[07:21] <fr500> what hardware?
[07:22] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, so many join I couldn't hope to keep track
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: which wine version?
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: then whe
[07:22] <abhinav_singh> how do you see gnome version in my ubuntu
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> When someone asks, simply inform
[07:22] <abhinav_singh> err wrong question...how do i see gnome version in ubuntu
[07:22] <bullgard4_> '~$ sudo cfdisk' lists 5 partitions with Flag=NC. What does 'NC' stand for?
[07:23] <Tech-1> system monitor
[07:23] <JoeR1> pentium d (dual core) geforce 9400 2g ddr2
[07:23] <triplc> hi all
[07:23] <fr500> JoeR1: well you should be able to run sc at max settings I guess
[07:23] <sheepherd> so... couple questions left. first off, i cant start banshee anymore. i get following error: http://goo.gl/ZZPOG . i dont see any process running
[07:23] <fr500> but that's in Windows
[07:23] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, wine 1.2.3
[07:23] <ActionParsnip> abhinav_singh: dpkg -l | grep gnome | grep lib     should do it
[07:24] <fr500> JoeR1: in wine I'd guess there should be a 20-40% performance penalty
[07:24] <fr500> it's pretty broad
[07:24] <fr500> and app dependant
[07:24] <JoeR1> fr500 - that game doesn't even have graphics settings but yes I should blow the req's out of the water that is why i suspect it is a matter of settings in wine
[07:24] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: uninstall it. Add the wine ppa and install 1.3  it may help
[07:25] <JoeR1> action - perhaps, one moment
[07:25] <fr500> JoeR1: even if you do in Windows
[07:25] <abhinav_singh> okay ActionParsnip
[07:25] <sheepherd> what could be the issue here?
[07:25] <sheepherd> i did reboot already
[07:25] <triplc> must i install pulseaudio to get gnome-settings-daemon to control audio volume (via multimedia keys), ubuntu 10.04 ? i install a slim (no gnome, only settings-daemon) ubuntu but do not know how to get the volume control correctly. i thought that gnome 2 does not require/demand pulseaudio
[07:25] <fr500> JoeR1: that doesn't mean it will be the same in linux with wine
[07:25] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: also make sure the app is fully updated
[07:25] <JoeR1> fr500 - even at an 80% performance drop I should have starcraft licked
[07:25] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, it is, of that I am certain
[07:26] <bullgard4_> sheepherd: Your DBus is out of order. may be it helps to start your GUI anew.
[07:26] <sheepherd> how do i do that?
[07:26] <bullgard4_> !prefix | sheepherd
[07:27] <triplc> must i install pulseaudio to get gnome-settings-daemon to control audio volume (via multimedia keys), ubuntu 10.04 ? i install a slim (no gnome, only settings-daemon) ubuntu but do not know how to get the volume control correctly. i thought that gnome 2 does not require/demand pulseaudio
[07:27] <sheepherd> bullgard4, yep sry :)
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: wine 1.3 may be the ticket. Wine is a strange beast. Also see if cedega or crossoveroffice run it
[07:27] <milamber> bullgard4_: NC means not compatible with dos or os/2, hope you don't need that  :/
[07:28] <JoeR1> I suspect that the average person that comes in here asking questions is less tech adept than I often feel as though I am being spoken down to (not in reference to any specific thing said today)
[07:28] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, I am just running updates with apt-get, if that doesn't work I'll go after a clean wipe
[07:28] <yoymi> hola
[07:29] <sheepherd> bullgard4, so back to my question... to you mean restarting compiz? im not sure what you mean with GUI
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: could also see if there are vids on YouTube of people running it and ask how they got it going
[07:29] <sheepherd> bullgard4, *do
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: natty repos don't have 1.3
[07:29] <bullgard4_> milamber: Thank you for explaining. --  No, fortunately I do not need any DOS or OS/2 compatibility.
[07:30] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, no, that was also fruitless as any video made recently was concerning Starcarft 2, what with the recent-ish release and all
[07:30] <bullgard4_> sheepherd: No. I mean restart GNOME if you are using GNOME.
[07:30] <JoeR1> Action yes they do, one moment - pastebin to follow shortly
[07:31] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: i'll take your word for it
[07:31] <ActionParsnip> !find wine
[07:31] <JoeR1> The following extra packages will be installed:  wine1.3 wine1.3-gecko The following packages will be REMOVED:  wine1.2 wine1.2-gecko The following NEW packages will be installed:  wine1.3 wine1.3-gecko
[07:31] <Tech-1> sheepherd   just log out and back in, see if that helps, didn't mean to get in between you and bullgard4 , even though he started and didn't finish with you
[07:32] <sheepherd> bullgard4, ok i'll do that... brb
[07:32] <sheepherd> Tech-1, ty
[07:32] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: so it does, the ppa may give a newer build, you'll need to try both to see which works better
[07:32] <Tech-1> ya np/p
[07:33] <flametai1> Is there anything like Rainmeter for Linux? o=
[07:34] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, I know, I was just unaware they had 1.3 out, in an unrelated side note - I find it very sad that my internet access takes many minutes to download 34 meg
[07:35] <questionsabout> Hello i need help
[07:35] <JoeR1> now reading it as wine 1.3.26
[07:35] <ActionParsnip> !away > bobJabba-Away
[07:35] <questionsabout> Can you help ,e?
[07:36] <ObrienDave_> questionsabout: just ask the question
[07:36] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip _ I shall return shortly to report either success or failure
[07:36] <questionsabout> Which ubuntu should i use
[07:37] <questionsabout> 9.04 or 9.10
[07:37] <bullgard4_> questionsabout: Ubuntu 10.04
[07:37] <philipballew> questionsabout, no
[07:37] <BarBlitz> the one thats most stable and just works
[07:37] <Tech-1> neither, they don't have support
[07:37] <philipballew> 10.04 or 11.04
[07:37] <Tech-1> 10.10
[07:37] <questionsabout> ok
[07:37] <questionsabout> but which
[07:37] <questionsabout> 0.0.04 or 11.04
[07:37] <philipballew> questionsabout, try 11.04
[07:37] <ObrienDave_> questionsabout: mostly depends on which desktop you prefer
[07:38] <questionsabout> unity hate
[07:38] <Tech-1> he cant prefer ubity, it only started with 11.04
[07:38] <Tech-1> unity
[07:38] <ObrienDave_> questionsabout: you don't have to boot into unity
[07:38] <sheepherd> bullgard4, well a logout didnt help. still the same error
[07:39] <bullgard4_> sheepherd: Just a moment please.
[07:39] <sheepherd> questionsabout, you can still use gnome 2 on 11.04
[07:41] <ObrienDave_> questionsabout: unity is a PITA
[07:41] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, I'm sorry, I told a lie. My version of starcraft was not up to date, I am rectifying this issue as I type.
[07:43] <bullgard4_> sheepherd: I could not find any report of the same bug in WWW that you have. --  I am using Banshee myself. --  The only recommendation I can give is to try Ubuntu 11.04 Alpha 3 and its new Banshee version. But this is dangerous.
[07:43] <bullgard4_> sheepherd: I could not find any report of the same bug in WWW that you have. --  I am using Banshee myself. --  The only recommendation I can give is to try Ubuntu 11.10 Alpha 3 and its new Banshee version. But this is dangerous.
[07:44] <sheepherd> bullgard4, ty for looking into it. but you mean 11.11 right?
[07:44] <graphicscardhelp> How would I burn a video dvd to play in Dvd players in Ubuntu 11.04 Natty?  Devede doesn't seem to be working anymore. The issue is when I go to play it on my dvd player, it gives me an error. So I'm guessing its not burning the iso file right in devede.
[07:44] <sheepherd> bullgard4, ah typo 11.10 and you already corrected that
[07:44] <sheepherd> bullgard4, well i dont think it could get worse than not working
[07:45] <Dogget> Hey guys. I cannot move upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 as ubuntu locks out completely even before I install it.
[07:46] <bullgard4_> sheepherd: But other programs may not work as well as you have been used to.
[07:46] <JoeR1> what is the new Ubuntu nick name going to be? octogenarian ocelot? or perhaps odiferous opossum?
[07:47] <bullgard4_> JoeR1: Oneiric
[07:47] <Tech-1> lol opossum
[07:48] <Dogget> What about oval orifice? :-)
[07:48] <sheepherd> bullgard4, i'll try upgrading banshee separately if possible.
[07:48] <JoeR1> Dogget, no good, it MUST contain an animal name
[07:48] <IdleOne> !ot
[07:48] <bullgard4_> Dogget: "locks out completely" is no exact description.
[07:48] <Dogget> Every animal has an orifice right?
[07:48] <milamber> !11.10
[07:49] <FriGiN> im trying to boot from a usb.. no matter what i do i just get a blinking underscore forever. nothing ever happens. thought it was the distro i had but ive now tried 3 distros one not even ubu, any help?
[07:49] <Dogget> Well I explain Bullguard
[07:49] <JoeR1> Perhaps Overt Orangutan would be a good name for it
[07:51] <milamber> !nomodeset | FriGiN
[07:51] <bullgard4_> sheepherd: What do you mean by "separately"?
[07:51] <Dogget> I used to have a 4850 ati graphic card and I never had any issue with it. I swapped to a 6850 which is stopping me from installing 11.04. If I swap the 6850 for my old 4850 I can put 11.04, if I put the 6850 back in I can't, even if 11.04 was installed previously using the 4850 card.
[07:51] <sheepherd> bullgard4, well without switching to 11.10
[07:51] <Dogget> I would love to upgrade but I can't.
[07:51] <ObrienDave> FriGiN: you mean usb hard drive or stick?
[07:52] <Dogget> Not without using the 6850 card.
[07:52] <FriGiN> stick
[07:52] <ObrienDave> FriGiN: i'm running off a 16GB stick now
[07:53] <bullgard4_> sheepherd: DBus is concerend with inter-process communication. You may not be successful with your anticipated test. But it  is worth a try.
[07:53] <FriGiN> thats what i have. ive had it b4.. i formatted it to move some software and im trying to go back ive never had this problem b4.. its immediately after post. just locks up right there. no data read blink from stick, nothing happens if you let it sit.. hit buttons nothing.
[07:54] <FriGiN> milamber, reading that page, i could be wrong, but im positive it doesnt apply.. its driver related and ive boot ubu many many times off this pc.. with same image. both 32 and 64 bit
[07:54] <milamber> FriGiN: just a thought
[07:55] <ObrienDave> FriGiN: am having same problem with 2TB hard drive. won't boot
[07:55] <FriGiN> milamber, not chastizing, just getting frustrated.
[07:56] <FriGiN> i used both unetbootin and yumi multi boot to image the stick..
[07:56] <sheepherd> bullgard4, hm... my update manager is installing libdbus1.0-cil right now. (new install)
[07:56] <FriGiN> my ultimate goal is that i want backtrack 5 running i'd love to have ubu multi boot on it tho..
[07:57] <sheepherd> bullgard4, with apt-get update i could find any updates though... hows that possible?
[07:57]  * aztek off dulu ya bro all, bos manggil ni.... :-)
[07:57] <Dogget> Anybody who can help me out with my 11.04 install/upgrade?
[07:57] <ObrienDave> FriGiN: I had better luck using LinuxPenDrive. Then burned .iso to dvd and installed to an UNformatted stick.
[07:57] <i42n> What is the difference between upgrade and dist-upgrade?
[07:58] <Clover> Hello all
[07:58] <sheepherd> bullgard4, and this is just one package among 10 others which only showed up in the update manager
[07:58] <Kartagis> !english > aztek
[07:58] <bullgard4_> sheepherd: Because industrious Ubuntu maintainers every day are improving packages in quality and are delivering them to repositories.
[07:58] <FriGiN> ObrienDave, dl'n now.
[07:58] <milamber> FriGiN: do you have a smaller usb stick to try?
[07:59] <ObrienDave> FriGiN: k
[07:59] <FriGiN> the 2gb stick shows as 1.87 and its shy of the necessary 2gb for the one image i need.
[08:00] <FriGiN> ObrienDave, http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ ?
[08:00] <ObrienDave> FriGiN: yep
[08:00] <Tomikasss> good day
[08:00] <Clover> I'm getting a really odd error on boot "failed to get i915 symbols graphics turbo disabled" and shortly afterwards my screen looks like this http://www.imgjoe.com/x/img0153igi.jpg. Has anyone seen this problem?
[08:01] <FriGiN> ObrienDave, same ppl that make yumi, but i'll give a go
[08:02] <bullgard4_> Clover: Please look for it in Launchpad bugs.
[08:02] <haaalp> is there a way to install ubuntu without removing ALL partitions? :O because i have a ntfs partition where a keep all my stuff that i want to save
[08:02] <Lasers> haaalp: Make a backup.
[08:02] <Lasers> haaalp: Buy new hard drives. They're cheap.
[08:02] <i42n> haaalp: just select at install that you want to keep the windows stuff
[08:03] <bullgard4_> haaalp: Yes. This is possible.
[08:04] <haaalp> then how? without buying a new HDD?
[08:04] <bullgard4_> haaalp: Use the Ubuntu installer program intelligently.
[08:04] <FriGiN> like i42n said, when installing you can choose to dual boot
[08:04] <Tomikasss> how to move icons to bottom in ubuntu??
[08:04] <haaalp> yeah but i dont want to dualboot
[08:05] <FriGiN> you can regrub and remove the windows partition info in the boot.
[08:05] <Tomikasss> from left side to bottom
[08:05] <FriGiN> then kill the /windows for space efficacy..
[08:05] <Lasers> haaalp: Why don't you want to buy new hard drive? I guess that NTFS partition isn't important if you're about to play with new toys without reading any manuals.
[08:06] <haaalp> i dont want to buy new ones since i already have 4 that i use! -.-
[08:06] <Guest3258> I could some assist me, I want to burn a movie to a DVD so I can play it in my DVD player, how would I go about it using Brasero?
[08:06] <Lasers> haaalp: They all are full? Use one of them for Ubuntu.
[08:06] <i42n> Lasers: It is possible without buying new hdd, so why spending more money?
[08:07] <haaalp> yes actually, they are full, this is the only one that's not
[08:07] <Cyb3rjunk> !list
[08:08] <Lasers> i42n: It's not about money. It's about the data. If you are comfortable losing everything -- and have ZERO backups. It's one of the worst feelings in the world.
[08:08] <paszo2008> hallo i have question how to enter grub during booting if ubuntu is only operating system ?
[08:09] <Lasers> paszo2008: Hold SHIFT if you're on GRUB2. (I believe).
[08:09] <paszo2008> i tried holding shift but with no results
[08:09] <bullgard4_> !grub2 | paszo2008
[08:09] <jorick> i installed ubuntu's GRUB on the partition-level (instead of on the disk level). this laptop already had a GRUB on the hard disk level which does things like restoring windows etc… how would i link the two grub's together? how do i get into grub's config?
[08:09] <paszo2008> yes i am on grub 2
[08:09] <GrindCrusher> press 'c' when the menu comes up
[08:09] <Lasers> I think Grub2 is hidden by default (until you hold shift during bootup).
[08:10] <Cyb3rjunk> Lasers u r right
[08:11] <gjx> hello everybody
[08:11] <Cyb3rjunk> but why grub 2 is used in only Ubuntu based distros ?
[08:11] <i42n> Cyb3rjunk: it isn't
[08:11] <acerz> has anyone got righ-click to work properly in ubuntu?
[08:12] <ObrienDave> acerz: yes. works fine
[08:12] <Lasers> acerz: It worked. Could it be your fancy high-tech mouse?
[08:13] <acerz> I use a click pad (I believe they are called these days)
[08:13] <acerz> an hp click pad
[08:13] <acerz> or touch pad
[08:13] <ObrienDave> click pad???
[08:13] <Lasers> acerz: What hardware?
[08:13] <Lasers> !hcl | acerz
[08:13] <acerz> my machine is an hp probook and the problem is with its touchpad
[08:14] <Athenon> Is there any remotely simple way to limit bandwidth for specific users?
[08:14] <voxcroix> PM me Pls
[08:15] <FriGiN> wish me luck rebootin
[08:15] <Lasers> acerz: Specific hardware.
[08:15] <acerz> it doesn't respond to right click commands and synaptiks doesn't even detect right click button
[08:15] <acerz> sorry, I don't have specifics now... I'm not with my machine here
[08:15] <ObrienDave> acerz: button bad? crud under button?
[08:15] <Lasers> acerz: I'm guessing your hardware is very new.
[08:16] <ObrienDave> acerz: switch under button bad?
[08:17] <paszo2008> holding shift during bootup doesnot work :/ - i have installed newest ubuntu on vbox
[08:17] <acerz> Lasers: it is only a few months old and there is no hardware problem... everything workds well in windows 7 and in windows xp but when I switch to ubuntu, the problem shows up
[08:17] <Lasers> acerz: Well. Come back in when you're by your hardware.
[08:17] <ObrienDave> acerz: sounds like driver issue to me
[08:18] <acerz> must be a driver issuew
[08:18] <ObrienDave> zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
[08:18] <Lasers> acerz: Otherwise we can't help much. You lack make/model specs. It's probably xorg issue if it didn't work out of the box fine.
[08:18] <acerz> so no solution can be foud here?
[08:19] <acerz> all the others online solve this issue but disable other feaures at the same time
[08:21] <janhaj> Hello, I have problem with sound, probably pulseaudio. Every 2 minutes, playing music start jumping for 0,5s.. It is annoying.. Do you know, why and fix? Thanks
[08:21] <DarsVaeda> hi what part of ubuntu is used for the window designs, that crashed somehow and I have an ugly design, I thought it might help if I do "killall xxx" and see if it restarts like with the gnome-panels
[08:21] <DarsVaeda> oh its called themes
[08:21] <milligan> I have an apache2 running on my laptop. netstat -nlp indicates that apache is only listening to tcp6 ::80 .. but my ports.conf has Listen ip:80 and ip6::80 .. Any ideas why it's not listening on ipv4 for connections ?
[08:25] <Lasers> acerz: You don't have your hardware. Usually it take a quick google "ubuntu, touchpad, solved, <your specs>" -- You'll find some good solutions.
[08:26] <craZZter> Hmm... after doing upgrade to <IP_ADDRESS> kernel I'm getting "kernel panic not syncing vfs unable to mount root fs on unknown-block". Then shutdown. I can boot in the <IP_ADDRESS> kernel. Any good suggestions? =/
[08:31] <jatt> I booted my machine and .bashrc was suddenly empty why?

[08:59] <stevennt123> I have a Dell Pavilion 8100 with a new hard drive.  I want to install Ubuntu 11.04  The boot sequence has been set but the boot goes into the CD app and not the install.  Any suggestions?
