[09:12] <bullgard6> greenit: Attach to the moznet and joiin #firefox. There you will be helped.
[09:12] <banyo> I need help
[09:12] <greenit> bullgard4, thx

[09:12] <LuckyStar> i want 1280x900 which it said it's not in the mode
[09:13] <banyo> graphic card updated?
[09:13] <LuckyStar> no, i just update the system
[09:14] <LuckyStar> xrandr -s 1280x900 doesn't work
[09:14] <banyo> Im not an expert, i came to ask for help too, try watching on youtube :)
[09:14] <banyo> I need someone experienced on this ppl
[09:15] <LuckyStar> !resolution
[09:15] <banyo> I have removed (mean UNINSTALED) entire task pane from system
[09:15] <banyo> i was trying to remove unity but i deleted everything
[09:15] <craz> okay so im connected to my windows pc through SSH - how do i do anything? lol its \C:\Users\PC\Desktop>
[09:16] <ezakimak> craz, install cygwin then use bash
[09:16] <glebihan> banyo, what do you mean by task pane ?
[09:17] <karthick87> How to add ubuntu to a windows domain?
[09:17] <banyo> you know
[09:17] <split-mobile> You don't need remove unity.  Just select ubuntu classic at the logon screen.
[09:18] <glebihan> banyo, if I asked it's probably, no, I don't know
[09:18] <banyo> well i didnt know that
[09:18] <banyo> now i Do after watching a video
[09:18] <banyo> i saw classic ubuntu
[09:18] <ActionParsnip> banyo: unity2D will replace Classic in Oneiric
[09:19] <banyo> the problem is guys that i have removed this, how do you call it, taskbar
[09:19] <banyo> uninstalled
[09:19] <banyo> there is nothing on desktop except icons
[09:19] <gaelfx> ActionParsnip: but you can still use Gnome 3 session instead of Unity in Oneiric, right?
[09:19] <glebihan> banyo, you mean gnome-panel ?
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> !panels | banyo
[09:19] <ActionParsnip> gaelfx: that doesn't make sense
[09:20] <josemota> hey guys, I tried to install Kubuntu via Wubi. Something went wrong, I had to uninstall it, but I can't recover back the 20GB I told it to use. what can I do in a situation like this?
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> gaelfx: unity runs in gnome
[09:20] <JamezQ> It makes fine sense,
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> josemota: use the add / remove programs to uninstall it
[09:20] <banyo> i cannot acces the terminal
[09:20] <JamezQ> no word on if that is going to be an option
[09:20] <banyo> cause of these problems
[09:20] <banyo> i try alt f2
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> JamezQ: unity isn't a DE
[09:20] <banyo> nothing happens
[09:20] <banyo> is there a shortcut
[09:21] <banyo> for
[09:21] <josemota> ActionParsnip: I did. Still can't recover the disk space...
[09:21] <JamezQ> ActionParsnip: I know what it is
[09:21] <banyo> keyboard shortuc, for synaptic
[09:21] <banyo> hell
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> JamezQ: so using gnome3 inistead of Unity makes no sense, using kde instead of gnome3 makes sense
[09:21] <ActionParsnip> banyo: use ALT+CTRL+T
[09:21] <JamezQ> ActionParsnip: I am almost certain he means "gnome-3" default non-shell desktop
[09:21] <JamezQ> it seemed obvious to me
[09:21] <banyo> thanks
[09:21] <banyo> action
[09:22] <banyo> im in
[09:22] <banyo> terminal
[09:22] <FloodBot1> banyo: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:22] <ActionParsnip> banyo: quit with the enter so much dude
[09:22] <banyo> ok ok
[09:22] <ActionParsnip> banyo: you dont have to hammer enter after every 3rd word
[09:22] <JamezQ> gnome-fallback , there ya go. He is asking if that is an option.
[09:22] <gaelfx> ActionParsnip: what I had meant is that you can still start a session without unity, right?
[09:22] <ActionParsnip> josemota: if all is good then check if you have c:\wubi
[09:23] <glebihan> gaelfx, no
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> gaelfx: not sure dude
[09:23] <banyo> hell to much people talking ill figure it out somehow
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> gaelfx: i use LXDE these days :)
[09:23] <glebihan> gaelfx, unless you install gnome-shell but not sure it'll be available on oneiric
[09:23] <josemota> ActionParsnip: I tried to check for C:/ubuntu, no luck. Same for C:/wubi
[09:23] <split-mobile> Bayno np hold ctrl + alt + f1 to log in. Type in sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop
[09:23] <JamezQ> gaelfx: I don't see why you can't use gnome 3 without unity no. but it may not be in default options.
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> josemota: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#How_do_I_manually_uninstall_Wubi.3F
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> gaelfx: there is a fork to keep gnome as itusedto be, reported on by omgubuntu
[09:25] <gaelfx> ActionParsnip: now THAT'S good news
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> gaelfx: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/?p=19106
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> gaelfx: I just switched DE and have no issues. I can still run all the gnome apps I want

[09:27] <RobinJ> using a command line env
[09:28] <RobinJ> ActionParsnip: yeah thats the strange thing... my BNC does that.... though the module is disabled

[09:28] <ActionParsnip> RobinJ: its cool, i suggest you review
[09:28] <RobinJ> k thanks JamezQ
[09:28] <LuckyStar> xrandr --addmode S-video 1280x900
[09:29] <LuckyStar> xrandr: cannot find output "S-video"

[09:30] <RobinJ> *until
[09:31] <ActionParsnip> RobinJ: thanks :D
[09:34] <RobinJ> isnt 156Mhz a bit slow for DDR2 RAM?
[09:36] <betanick> while running /etc/init.d/networking restart i get "stop: Unknown instance:" is this normal?
[09:36] <fasp> After having deleted my win7 and ubuntu partitions, I wanted to restore the bootlader for the remaining vista partition by using Super Grub2 Disc. I managed to boot vista, but how can I make my laptop boot automatically vista at startup?

[09:37] <devish> hi
[09:37] <devish> i was planning to make one of my 30 gb ntf partion to exxt4?how can i do it?
[09:37] <ActionParsnip> RobinJ: check your FSB setting in BIOS
[09:37] <betanick> also "Waiting for br0 to get ready (MAXWAIT is 32 seconds)." used to take a bit of time but now it doesn't is that normal?
[09:37] <ActionParsnip> devish: use liveCD
[09:38] <devish> it will more or less will act like a extended one i suppose
[09:39] <devish> ActionParsnip: i don't have that;
[09:39] <betanick> i used to get "Waiting for br0 to get ready (MAXWAIT is 32 seconds)." followed by "???" but now i get "stop: Unknown instance:"
[09:39] <devish> ActionParsnip: is there some default partioner?
[09:39] <ActionParsnip> devish: then download one
[09:39] <split-mobile> You can install startup manager  in the software center. Then find it installed in the administration  window.  You can then select default boot image
[09:39] <ActionParsnip> devish: there is gparted on the Ubuntu livecD
[09:39] <ActionParsnip> devish: or LiveUSB, same difference
[09:40] <betanick> ??? = i think ??? had to do with dhcp but i'm not 100%
[09:40] <devish> ActionParsnip: when i am already running a system that whats the use of downloading other one
[09:41] <dttys> hi
 RobinJ: check your FSB setting in BIOS << nothing like that in the bios :p it's  some crappy hp setup utility. all i can change is the boot order
[09:41] <dttys> anyone knows where i can find a RSA private key stored in my ubuntu?
[09:41] <ActionParsnip> devish: are you running ubuntu now?
[09:42] <ActionParsnip> RobinJ: nice :(
[09:42] <split-mobile> !rsa
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> RobinJ: well 156 x 2 = 333Mhz
[09:43] <Davion> * ksinkar<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has left #ubuntu >> ("Konversation terminated!") << very creative
[09:44] <devish> ActionParsnip: yes buddy with dual boot so one of my 30 gb partition is ntfs and i want to convert it to ext4
[09:44] <DaZ> i don't really think you can :f
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> devish: then make sure the partition is unmountd and fire up gparted, you can format it there
[09:45] <DaZ> oh, you mean convert it like this :x
[09:46] <bahamas> hello. how can i debug some issues with my wireless? sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't (meaning it doesn't display any access points, and i can't connect to saved connections). i'm using 64-bit ubuntu 11.04 and the card is manufactured by broadcom
[09:47] <M1_> bahamas: are you sure it's not a hardware problem? does it work on other operating systems?
[09:48] <craz> okay so im SSH'D in my Win7 using Ubuntu, is there a way i can use my Linux commands rather than this Windows Command prompt?
[09:49] <JamezQ> craz: options, cgywin, eshell, much more.
[09:50] <droid> King tut exhibit up auctions by installing the startup manager the fun that's all for in the ubuntu software center what is installed the fun tonight and a ministration tub it from there you're gonna go ahead and select the park if you want to boot up so if you want to go to panda windows 7 or windows xp first it's like a from the start of manager and then you're set and ready to go
[09:50] <craz> JamezQ: which would you recommend
[09:50] <bahamas> M1_: i'm sure because it works on this OS as well, from time to time
[09:50] <bahamas> M1_: and before switching to the 64-bit version it always worked
[09:51] <JamezQ> craz: I would recommend eshell, but that's only because I'm a psyco emacs user. Cgywin is the more popular solution
[09:52] <craz> Get that Linux feeling - on Windows!?
[09:52] <craz> Cygwin
[09:53] <bahamas> M1_: i'm not afraid of using gdb if i have to. i just need to know where to start
[09:54] <Guest92533> hi
[09:54] <Guest92533> anyone online
[09:54] <JamezQ> Guest92533: nope.
[09:55] <Guest92533> how to use(install) .obj file ?
[09:55] <fasp> How can I enable the Universe repository in a Lucid LiveCD to install startupmanager?
[09:55] <JamezQ> Guest92533: An .obj file is a java object in binary form, it is generally not used to install.
[09:56] <JamezQ> Guest92533: What are you trying to install with the .obj?
[09:56] <Guest92533> video card draver
[09:57] <Guest92533> driver
[09:58] <JamezQ> Guest92533: For what??? You most likely just put it in a folder to "install" it
[10:00] <Guest92533> which folder should i put it in ? It's in the download folder.
[10:00] <Nicolus> _nick
[10:01] <JamezQ> Guest92533: I don't have enough information boss. I don't know where you got it from ect
[10:01] <JamezQ> Guest92533: can I see your download link
[10:02] <dttys> about that private key: on windows u go to mmc, u export the certificate selecting to include the private key, then use openssl to strip the private key from the .PFX file
[10:03] <Guest92533> http://w3.sis.com/download/agreement.php?url=/download/
[10:03] <dttys> [12:39] <dttys> anyone knows where i can find a RSA private key stored in my ubuntu?
[10:04] <JamezQ> Guest92533: So did you get a tar.gz or just a .obj
[10:04] <Guest92533> .obj
[10:06] <JamezQ> Guest92533: The SiS650 Graphic Driver?
[10:06] <Guest92533> yes how do you known?
[10:07] <JamezQ> Guest92533: I don't I am trying to figure it out
[10:08] <droid> Dttys, rsa keys in a hiden folder called:  .ssh  . You can find it in your home folder and hitting ctrl alt h to display  your home hidden folders
[10:08] <dttys> thanks!
[10:08] <droid> Ctrl h
[10:08] <dttys> will try
[10:08] <dttys> but why ssh?
[10:08] <dttys> it's ssl encryption
[10:09] <droid> Did you generate the Ssh key yourself?
[10:12] <dttys> sry droid
[10:13] <dttys> no, i got it from the webserver
[10:13] <niklaswe> how can i get so I see Free Mem,cpu and stuff like that when i login ?
[10:13] <hagus> How do I get ssh to listen on port 7822 rather than on 22?
[10:14] <niklaswe> hagus: change in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[10:14] <niklaswe> and then restart sshd
[10:14] <niklaswe>  /etc/init.d/sshd restart
[10:15] <droid> Dttys so its a web certificate you imported that you want to look a
[10:15] <dttys> xactly :)
[10:15] <hagus> niklaswe, I get this when I do that: calum@ubuntu:/$ /etc/init.d/sshd restart ... bash: /etc/init.d/sshd: No such file or directory
[10:16] <folivora> hagus: have you installed ssh-server ?

[10:17] <javier__> hi. I have problems with my wireless connection in ubuntu 11.04. I was using network manager but connexion was stopping from time to time. Afterwards, I moved to wicd, but the problem persist. For example, when streaming an online video or football match, is not stable. If I change to windows, internet connection is normal and I can run the same kind of videos without problems. Some knows what may be happening?
[10:17] <droid> If your using firefox. Look under preferences under security then certificates
[10:17] <ruben> hello
[10:17] <ruben> can some1 help me out
[10:17] <ruben> I managed to remove myself from the admin group
[10:17] <ruben> and now I can't sudo to put myself in it again
[10:17] <ruben> and I never bothered changing the root passwd to something other hten then default from the install
[10:19] <dttys> @ droid: i already did
[10:19] <dttys> i managed to xtract the certificate, but i think the private key was not included
[10:20] <geirha> ruben: Boot into recovery mode and run   adduser yourusername admin
[10:20] <ruben> when I boot into recovery mode
[10:20] <ruben> it still wants the root passwd
[10:21] <geirha> ruben: Really? That's weird.
[10:21] <droid> Dttys then you have regenerate the rsa key and create a new private key
[10:21] <ubuntu_> ruben, what happens when you fill nothing in?
[10:22] <ubuntu_> just press enter when it asks root passwd
[10:22] <ruben> hmm
[10:22] <ruben> it keeps prompting
[10:22] <ruben> sec
[10:22] <ruben> I reboot and try again
[10:22] <FloodBot1> ruben: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:22] <ubuntu_> hoi dolfje
[10:22] <dttys> why? this one is still working, i just havent figured out how to access it
[10:23] <ruben> "Give root password for maintenance or type Control-D to continue:
[10:23] <ruben> Login Incorrect.
[10:23] <dttys> just a sec
[10:24] <Koterpillar> Firefox, Thunderbird, Chromium and Epiphany all started crashing on me. Is this a known problem or I'm on my own?
[10:24] <FloodBot1> BlueWolf: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:24] <droid> If you generated the key it should of prompted  you a private key pw
[10:24] <geirha> ruben: What happens if you continue?
[10:25] <RobinJ> can someone help me cponnect to a wireless network from the command line? JamezQ told me how to do it but it ain't working (and he's offline now)
[10:26] <RobinJ> ifconfig wlan0 up, iwlist wlan0 scan, iwconfig wlan0 essid "network name", dhclient wlan0
[10:26] <RobinJ> thats what i did.. without succes
[10:26] <dttys> @droid: k gonna search how to do it, n if it's worth the try
[10:26] <RobinJ> maybe because its got a WPA key?
[10:28] <niklaswe> RobinJ: use wpa_supplicant
[10:29] <RobinJ> .... how?
[10:29] <hagus> niklaswe: I now get:  could not load (it lists) various keys
[10:29] <niklaswe> RobinJ: first wpa_passhase  "create configfile"
[10:30] <niklaswe> RobinJ: wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwirelessinterface -c /path/to/your/config/file&
[10:30] <niklaswe> dhclient wirelessInterface
 RobinJ: first wpa_passhase  "create configfile" << exactly like that? or should i replace something?
[10:31] <repozitor> how to register on IRC?
[10:31] <FloodBot1> BlueWolf: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:31] <repozitor> is this right?
[10:31] <niklaswe> RobinJ: try run wpa_passhase
[10:31] <niklaswe> it will say how you will use it
[10:31] <repozitor> "/msg nickserv register password mail"
[10:32] <prem> how to copy  a file along with its bookmarks created using gedit?
[10:32] <niklaswe> RobinJ: I just give you hints
[10:32] <prem> when i copy the file from one machine to other .,i lost all my bookmarks
[10:32] <RobinJ> aha when i do wpa_passphrase <essid> <wpakey> it gives me some kind of config file :D
[10:33] <niklaswe> RobinJ: yeah
[10:33] <niklaswe> but it to configfile
[10:34] <RobinJ> niklas: /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf?
[10:34] <niklaswe> RobinJ: so.. use wpa_passphrase essid yourKey > myconfig
[10:34] <RobinJ> i did :p
[10:35] <RobinJ> and now? dhclient wlan0?
[10:35] <niklaswe> noe
[10:35] <RobinJ> doh :p
[10:35] <niklaswe> RobinJ: wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iWireLessInterface -c /path/to/myconfig
[10:35] <RobinJ> iWirelessInterface?
[10:36] <RobinJ> lol
[10:36] <niklaswe> yeah
[10:36] <RobinJ> do i have to do this every time i boot up? or only once? xD
[10:36] <niklaswe> then you will see if you will get connected.. and if ctrl-D
[10:37] <niklaswe> and run wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iWireLessInterface -c /path/to/myconfig&
[10:37] <niklaswe> and dhclient WireLessInterface
[10:37] <RobinJ> what is ctrl+d?
[10:37] <niklaswe> RobinJ: I mean ctrl+c =)
[10:37] <RobinJ> xD
[10:37] <RobinJ> CTRL-EVENT-CONNECTED - Connection to blablabla completed (aith) [id=blablabla...
[10:38] <RobinJ> is that good? =)
[10:38] <niklaswe> yupp
[10:38] <niklaswe> kill it ctrl+c
[10:38] <RobinJ> so now... ctrl+c and dhclient wlan0?
[10:38] <niklaswe> run it again like this..
[10:38] <niklaswe> and run wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iWireLessInterface -c /path/to/myconfig&
[10:38] <RobinJ> .... ?
[10:39] <niklaswe> & =  put it in background
[10:39] <RobinJ> wpa_supplicant -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf&
[10:39] <niklaswe> yeah
[10:39] <RobinJ> ah thats hwat the & is for :D
[10:39] <niklaswe> yeah
[10:39] <RobinJ> but do i have to  do this every time? :p
[10:39] <niklaswe> when you get connected  run dhclient wlan0
[10:39] <RobinJ> or will it happen automatically when i login/boot?
[10:40] <niklaswe> RobinJ: yeah if you dont but it in /etc/rc.local
[10:40] <RobinJ> ..k :p how do i put it in that file?
[10:40] <niklaswe> or making a script for it.
[10:40] <RobinJ> gues sill just make a script :p
[10:41] <bahamas> niklaswe: i wonder if the instructions that you gave to RobinJ apply to me. i have issues with the wireless in that sometimes it works and access points appear you when i boot up and other times don't
[10:41] <RobinJ> xd
[10:42] <droid> Niklaswe add it in by typing sudo gedit /etc/rc.local
[10:42] <Kingsy> ok guys, what vncserver do I need to install if I want it running on the gnome login screen AND inside gnome after login?
[10:42] <RobinJ> thanks niklaswe :p but gotta go now
[10:42] <Kingsy> see the idea is to be able to turn my pc on with a WOL packet (which I have already done) and use vnc to login and control the pc..
[10:42] <niklaswe> RobinJ: np
[10:44] <lokodomain> where can i get help with apache2 server configuration?  thanks in advance
[10:44] <glebihan> lokodomain, #httpd
[10:44] <gaelfx> Kingsy: can you get one that actuallly runs at the login screen?
[10:44] <lokodomain> glebihan , they dont let me speak
[10:45] <lokodomain> I 'm not sure why?
[10:45] <Kingsy> gaelfx: ummm I hope so.. remote desktop does it for windows.. I would assume there would be a way in linux
[10:45] <Morgz> lokodomain - you prob need to register your nick
[10:45] <Kingsy> I suppose I could just remove the username and password and have it log in automatically.. but surely there is a way
[10:46] <ahhughez> how can I tell if 'make install' ran successfully?
[10:46] <lokodomain> Morgz, yeah your right just noticed that.. ANy idea how..?
[10:47] <droid> Test
[10:47] <gaelfx> Kingsy: well, whatever it is, you would have to have it start up before gdm
[10:47] <Kingsy> gaelfx: could you log into the machine via ssh and start the vnc server that way ?
[10:47] <gaelfx> Kingsy: which sounds like you would have to edit initd or whatever
[10:48] <gaelfx> Kingsy: worth a shot, but do you want to have to do that everytime?
[10:48] <ahhughez> I ran make install, and it just spat out... 'dvb-usb-it9135.ko \n af35irtbl.bin'... what am I supposed to do with these files? (these are supposed to be my usb tv tuner drivers)
[10:49] <gaelfx> Kingsy: I think you just have to make a script and place it in /etc/init.d but I might be wrong about that
[10:49] <gaelfx> Kingsy: maybe this helps? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=711067
[10:49] <Kingsy> gaelfx: hmm just found a little tutor that might work ..
[10:50] <Kingsy> just gonna try it
[10:51] <Kingsy> gaelfx: here is a question .. how come in my login screen settings there is nok option to enable XDMCP ?
[10:51] <gaelfx> Kingsy: I don't know what that is, so I really couldn't say
[10:52] <capcook> hello
[10:53] <Kingsy> does anyone know?
[10:53] <abstrakt> what's the official email full name syntax/format, and or what's the RFC to look up?
[10:54] <abstrakt> like<EMAIL_ADDRESS><Foo Bar>
[10:54] <jrib> not ubuntu :/
[10:54] <abstrakt> or however it appears, sometimes, i can't quite remember
[10:56] <Kingsy> does anyone know what XDMCP is ?
[10:58] <ezakimak> http://lmgtfy.com/?q=xdmcp
[10:59] <IdleOne> !lmgtfy | ezakimak
[10:59] <Kingsy> ezakimak: its not that, I want to know how to enable XDMCP on the login screen.. all of the tutors I have read says go into System->admin->login screen settings
[11:00] <Kingsy> ezakimak: in 11.04 login settings doesnt even have a security tab and doesnt mention XDMCP anywhere
[11:01] <ezakimak> dunno about that
[11:01] <Kingsy> :S
[11:01] <Kingsy> anyone know? :) its annoying as hell
[11:15] <gaelfx> I don't think I've ever seen it so quiet here before
[11:20] <Kingsy> gaelfx: hmm I don't think I am going to get this working, is it not possible to launch the vnc server through ssh once your logged in?
[11:20] <devral> can i restore /etc/ while the system is booted or do i need to do that from a livecd?
[11:21] <gaelfx> Kingsy: yeah, you should be able to. I believe it's called vino-server or something like that
[11:21] <gaelfx> Kingsyprobably needs a sudo though, and I'm not sure if you need to pass it any options
[11:22] <Kingsy> hmmm ok i will try it
[11:26] <alcy> http://pastebin.com/h4nT4Lav
[11:26] <alcy> temp issue with the mirrors ? or something else needs to be done ?
[11:27] <egoproctor> can anyone tell me if ubuntu includes the synaptic sgs-l touchpad suite in the download or just in OEM machines that ship with linux
[11:27] <devral> can i restore /etc/ while the system is booted or do i need to do that from a livecd?
[11:28] <the_intel> I just installed ircu with apt-get command

[11:30] <the_intel> How to find it?
[11:31] <Kingsy> gaelfx: hmm doesnt seem to work, I opened ssh with -X ran vino-server and it seems to load to a point but then just stops on    Advertising Security Type: "No Authentication"
[11:33] <Aquix> Can you ingnore bot announcements in xchat?
[11:34] <gaelfx> Kingsy: try to man vino-server and see if there are any parameters that might be useful for you
[11:38] <Kingsy> brb
[11:39] <devral> can i restore /etc/ while the system is booted or do i need to do that from a livecd?
[11:39] <arussel> is there a way to encrypt a DVD in such a way that it is viewable from an Upnp server with an Archos 101 and an IPad ?

[11:41] <Flower> Hi all!!!
[11:41] <wers> for some reason, the recommended NVIDIA driver on "Additional Drivers" is activted but not currently in use. how do I switch to it?
[11:41] <Flower> Hi schoolers!
[11:42] <wers> it must be because I choose to install 3rd party software upon installation? I'm on a  fresh Natty, btw
[11:42] <photon> hi. I noticed that a recent version of mkfs.ext4 is MUCH faster than previous versions. With older versions it took me about an hour to format a 3 TB drive, now it takes less than a minute on the same hardware with the same drive! The extra space needed for the formatting also shrunk a lot (130 GB to 200 MB). How come? Is my mkfs.ext4 broken or is this by design?
[11:43] <gaelfx> wers: did you restart after activating the driver?
[11:43] <kkkkkk> guys i tried to active uinput with sudo modprobe uinput but it doesn't appear with lsmod.. why?
[11:43] <wers> gaelfx I didn't activate it. it was activated on my fresh install
[11:43] <wers> gaelfx, the only available action is "Remove"
[11:44] <Flower> write on russian please :)
[11:44] <gaelfx> wers: well, that's rather strange because it isn't supposed to be enabled by default. Can you access the NVidia settings application in System->Administration?
[11:45] <gaelfx> d'oh, natty, I should pay more attention to those things
[11:45] <wers> gaelfx, I can
[11:45] <sipior> photon: regarding the extra disk space, i imagine the change is in the fraction of reserved blocks, not formatting. a five percent reservation was the historical default.
[11:45] <gaelfx> wers: try saving the x.org conf file or whatever it is in there and then restart?
[11:45] <wers> gaelfx, at first, I was thinking this is running nouveau, but NVIDIA X Server Settings do work
[11:45] <photon> sipior: yes, you are right, just figured that out myself. my bad. but the change in speed is still astonishing.
[11:46] <wers> gaelfx, I don't understand.. what do you mean?
[11:46] <Flower> Who can tell a good mini-distro?
[11:46] <Flower> Who can tell a good mini-distro?
[11:46] <Flower> Who can tell a good mini-distro?
[11:46] <photon> Flower: please stop spamming.
[11:46] <Flower> ok
[11:46] <gaelfx> wers: don't worry about it, try opening a terminal and typing 'jockey-text -l' and see what that gives you
[11:47] <jussi> Flower: you are likely to get a better answer to that question in ##linux
[11:47] <wers> gaelfx, check this out http://paste.ubuntu.com/677156/
[11:48] <devral> is it possible to extract a tarball backup of etc from within the system? or must i be in a livecd environment?
[11:48] <Flower> jussi, what sorry?
[11:48] <lokodomain> hey does anybody know how to view hidden files using the ls command....?
[11:48] <auronandace> lokodomain: ls -a
[11:48] <prem> lokodomain, ls -la
[11:48] <devral> lokodomain: ls -a
[11:48] <lokodomain> thanks gys
[11:48] <Flower> ls -Fail
[11:49] <jussi> Flower: you asked about amini distro, this is Ubuntu support, you probably are better off asking in ##linux :)
[11:49] <Flower> ls -Fail
[11:49] <wers> ok. this tells my my nvidia driver is enabled, but not in use; but doesn't tell what's in use
[11:49] <zurgutt> I have installed 11.4 setup with Nvidia 8600M and dual screen with separate X servers, problem is external screen does not have window manager  ie window borders are missing.  I am somewhat experienced in linux but have no idea where to look to debug this, ideas?
[11:49] <wers> gaelfx, whatever this nvidia driver is, it's not what I need. the default ubuntu wallpaper doesn't show correctly
[11:49] <Flower> oh ##linux is a channel?
[11:50] <jussi> Flower: correct :)
[11:50] <gaelfx> wers: well, if it isn't using NVidia, it's probably using nouveau
[11:50] <jussi> Flower: type: /join ##linux
[11:51] <Flower> jussi< thanks!
[11:51] <wers> there can't be multiple nvidia drivers in one system, yes? gaelfx, any idea how I can switch?
[11:51] <Flower> ^_^
[11:52] <wers> gaelfx, perhaps, I can open the NVIDIA settings window, because the driver is installed, but making changes here won't work
[11:52] <gaelfx> wers: you can't be using two different drivers for one device at the same time, correct, but it's not using NVidia, is it?
[11:52] <wers> gaelfx, not using nvidia, but it's active
[11:53] <Flower> bb all ^_^
[11:53] <wers> gaelfx, I meant, can multiple nvidia propreitary drivers be installed and active?
[11:53] <gaelfx> wers: Nvidia settings is just a GUI for editing conf files, it doesn't actually indicate anything other than the NVidia driver is available
[11:53] <gaelfx> wers: no, I don't think you can have more than one proprietary driver for NVidia going at once, and according to Jockey, you don't
[11:53] <gaelfx> wers: what card are you trying to use?
[11:55] <wers> gaelfx, I'm with NVIDIA 320M. This is a MacBook Air late 2010
[11:55] <fmauro> gaelfx: doesn't Xorg load drivers per device?
[11:57] <wers> any idea how I can ditch nouveau (or whatever) to use the preferred NVIDIA driver?
[11:58] <gaelfx> wers: well, this might not sound very fun, but you could try removing it and then reinstalling it
[11:58] <wers> gaelfx, removing what?
[11:59] <gaelfx> wers: the nvidia driver in question
[11:59] <fmauro> wers, you don't have to remove it , just blacklist it
[11:59] <gaelfx> wers: or just try disabling it and then re-enabling it
[11:59] <wers> fmauro, how?
[11:59] <wers> gaelfx, will do
[12:00] <fmauro> wers: are you trying to switch to vesa or just the propietary nvidia one?
[12:00] <gaelfx> wers: if you do jockey-text --help, it will tell you what options you have when using it
[12:01] <gaelfx> fmauro: he's trying to get his system to actually use the NVidia driver, right now it's enabled but not in use
[12:01] <wers> fmauro, I'm on a fresh install. I want to switch from whatever's active to the preferred NVIDIA driver
[12:01] <fmauro> wers: so , fresh install means nouveau
[12:01] <wers> fmauro, Natty could've activated nouveau by default
[12:02] <splitpaw-mobile> Goto restricted drivers  that's it
[12:02] <splitpaw-mobile> Find that under administration
[12:02] <wers> fmauro, perhaps. I want to switch to the nvidia one
[12:03] <fmauro> wers: then either restriced drivers or just apt-get it with: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[12:03] <gaelfx> wers: ubuntuforums takes forever to load for me, so I haven't seen it yet, but perhaps this has the information you need: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1684988
[12:03] <fmauro> wers: this will ALSO blacklist nouveau
[12:04] <wers> fmauro, restricted drivers ("Additional Drivers" dialog) has nvidia enabled, but not in use. see http://paste.ubuntu.com/677156/
[12:04] <splitpaw-mobile> There is no need to blackest the driver! Just use the restricted driver
[12:04] <fmauro> wers: I assume you have rebooted?
[12:05] <glebihan> wers, the "not in use" mention is a bug in jockey
[12:05] <wers> fmauro, nope. surprisingly, natty activated it by default. this is the first ever boot of this fresh install
[12:05] <wers> fmauro, i checked the install codecs check box, though. could mean something
[12:05] <wers> glebihan, you mean, it doesn't show proper status?
[12:05] <glebihan> wers, yep
[12:06] <glebihan> wers, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jockey/+bug/771788
[12:06] <wers> glebihan, I'm confident that this isn't the nvidia driver. wallpaper doesn't show properly. used to work on my Maverick
[12:06] <wers> also, I don't have an NVIDIA section in my xorg.conf
[12:07] <glebihan> wers, well I haven't followed your issue from the beginning, was just mentioning it
[12:07] <fmauro> wers: Xorg no longer relies on a xorg.conf file
[12:07] <glebihan> wers, that doesn't mean anything either, xorg.conf is not even needed anymore
[12:07] <wers> all I got in my xorg.conf is "	Identifier	"Default Device"
[12:07] <fmauro> wers: why don't you post the output of cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep drivers
[12:08] <wers> fmauro, glebihan odd. MB Air installation instructions have xorg.conf stuff for backlight https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookAir3-2/Narwhal
[12:08] <josemota> hey guys, i had a bad install of ubuntu using wubi. I lost the 20GB of space I told it to use. is there any way to recover them?
[12:08] <jwalker> I am getting the error "You have not chosen to trust "etoken" , the issuer of the servers security certificate (SSL error 61).  Can anyone help me out...
[12:09] <wers> fmauro, http://paste.ubuntu.com/677166/
[12:09] <glebihan> wers, to be exact worg.conf is not required, but if you create one it is used
[12:09] <glebihan> *xorg.conf*
[12:09] <fmauro> wers: isn't there a package in apt that takes care of this via the proc fs. I'll take a look
[12:09] <arvinder> ok
[12:10] <fmauro> wers: make a backup of your xorg.conf and remove it (or just rename it) and try a reboot. just to get a regular Xorg loading procedure
[12:10] <gaelfx> is there a way to find out the most commonly used terms in this IRC? I'm wondering how NVidia compares to other issues
[12:10] <splitpaw-mobile> Jwalker should be in add/remove applications
[12:10] <Tixos> hi guys, i am about to wipe my PC and install ubuntu on an encrypted drive
[12:11] <Tixos> my question is is there any need to 00 the drive, before encrypting it ?
[12:11] <daavis> i got Samsung YP-K3 which mounted automatically. I can see folders and files in it, but problem with copying. I can copy files into it and see them on folders while plugged to my laptop. But files actually aren't on  player. When I unplug player and watch for copied files i see none of them
[12:11] <wers> fmauro, ok rebooting
[12:12] <gaelfx> Tixos: I'm not saying for sure, but I can't imagine that zeroing it will have any effect on encryption
[12:13] <gaelfx> Tixos: that being said, it shouldn't take too long to zero it, so why not? :P
[12:13] <Tixos> yes it will
[12:13] <Tixos> around 6-7hours
[12:14] <gaelfx> Tixos: what size of hard drive is this?
[12:14] <Tixos> i am saying, that encrypting will write random data to all areas of the drive
[12:14] <Tixos> so is there any need to 00 first of all? to remove any sensitve data there may be
[12:14] <Tixos> 500GB
[12:14] <gaelfx> Tixos: and what are you using to zero it?
[12:14] <wers> fmauro, back. what do I do next?
[12:14] <Tixos> usually active kill disk
[12:14] <fmauro> wers:  the package I was talking about is: pommed   for adjusting backlight / hotkeys and such
[12:14] <Tixos> a windows product, i tried shred but it was stupidly slow
[12:15] <fmauro> wers: is the output of the cat /var/..andsoson still the same?
[12:15] <wers> fmauro, the same
[12:16] <wers> fmauro, still http://paste.ubuntu.com/677166/
[12:16] <fmauro> wers: Is it okay if I pm you, this may take some further steps
[12:17] <gaelfx> Tixos: why not just use Knoppix or GParted or something like that?
[12:17] <MrCollins> what is a good frostwire equivalent

[12:29] <MrCollins> im trying to follow the directions on getdeb.net.....
[12:29] <gaelfx> MrCollins: I believe add-apt-repository is how it works, but I'm not sure what exactly you're trying to add
[12:29] <MrCollins> im at this link http://www.getdeb.net/updates/Ubuntu/11.04#how_to_install
[12:29] <xangua> MrCollins: or simply install the getdeb package
[12:30] <MrCollins> following the directions on number 2
[12:30] <MrCollins> oh... is that sudo apt-get install getdeb?
[12:30] <xangua> step 1 is enought
[12:30] <xangua> MrCollins: no, clic on it, download it and install it
[12:31] <MrCollins> ok thank you
[12:33] <MrCollins> xangua I have installed the package on getdeb
[12:33] <JoeR1> ok I have a Pentium D 2.8 and HD video decodes like junk, suggestions?

[12:37] <oooaaaooo> hi guys, i have a general question about a certain package called laptop-mode-tools; it is said to enable a longer power down of harddisks which is apparently better for  energy consumption; is this package something of a derelict in that the functionality is supported with 11.04?
[12:40] <oooaaaooo> anybody have any experience with the laptop-mode-tools package?
[12:42] <lynx_> I'm having SERIOUS problems about shit
[12:42] <lynx_> I mean SEVERE kernel proble
[12:42] <lynx_> I mean SEVERE kernel problems
[12:42] <bazhang> lynx_, no cursing, stop repeating
[12:43] <sipior> lynx_: best if you get right to the symptoms.
[12:43] <lynx_> k, anyway... I'm having severe kernel problems that say things like nosephamore or EIP or EAX and it says "This is not a software problem!"  Go to this URL to see a sample: http://pastebin.com/EtXy02th
[12:44] <angelete2> hi
[12:44] <angelete2> how do i set up automatic security updates?
[12:44] <angelete2> i haven't done it during setup
[12:44] <sipior> lynx_: when did the problem start, and is the machine unstable?
[12:44] <lynx_>  What's a good way to break into a server nowadays
[12:44] <lynx_> sipier: It started about two months ago
[12:45] <lynx_> My computer's processor kept overheating, but I found it was the fan's problem, then I fixed it by putting a new CPU fan on
[12:45] <sipior> lynx_: does the machine stay up?
[12:45] <xangua> angelete2: software centre-edit-sources-updates
[12:46] <lynx_> I also reduced the clock rate to solve the problem... then after fixing everything, the computer would start to lock up for no reason at all
[12:46] <sipior> lynx_: have you checked the motherboard for physical damage?
[12:46] <lynx_> Every time I turn it off for extended periods of time, and try to turn it on again, I have to keep switching it on and off becaus eit keeps giving me those EP type errors I pasted
[12:46] <lynx_> http://pastebin.com/EtXy02th
[12:46] <lynx_> Yes, I have
[12:46] <lynx_> Everything appears fine... however
[12:46] <patrik_> Hi, ive got a problem - im going to start a gnome/openbox session when i login it just goes to a black screen then returns to the normal login screen, how to fix it?
[12:46] <devral> is there a command i can use to lock my CLI terminal without having to log out?
[12:46] <sipior> lynx_: other operating systems don't exhibit the problem?
[12:47] <lynx_> I have a problem where I can't even get my ethernet working... it works on my laptops but not this desktop
[12:47] <lynx_> Windows has a problem where networking doesn't work at all, however it doesn't instantly crash like that
[12:48] <lynx_> But the kernel specifically gives a message sayin g "FATAL: This is not a software problem!" after showing assembly language type errors
[12:48] <angelete2> xangua: what do you want to mean?
[12:49] <sipior> devral: yeah, have a look at vlock.
[12:49] <angelete2> there is no package with this name
[12:49] <patrik_> Hi, ive got a problem - im going to start a gnome/openbox session when i login it just goes to a black screen then returns to the normal login screen, how to fix it?
[12:49] <splitpaw-mobile> Devral you can install vlock to lock a cli and use screen to multitask  between cli windows
[12:49] <xangua> angelete2: go to software centre-edit-sources-update , to configure updates
[12:49] <sipior> lynx_: damage to the hardware is strongly indicated, i think. have you checked that both cooler and cpu are seated properly?
[12:50] <suarezisthe1> does anyone know when andlinux will be released for 64bit windows... link to there site if you wont to know what it is. ----->>  http://www.andlinux.org/
[12:50] <gaelfx> angelete2: he means that in Software Center, in the Edit menu, select Sources and then select the Updates tab
[12:50] <gaelfx> angelete2: I think
[12:51] <lynx_> sipier: Yes.  The problem with the fan has been that the blade was turning at a slower RPM than normal
[12:51] <lynx_> so I simply replaced the fan and that helped
[12:51] <lynx_> I suspect CPU damage
[12:51] <lynx_> but IU'm n ot entirely sure because wind ows works perfectly fine
[12:51] <gaelfx> suarezisthe1: this channel is for Ubuntu support
[12:51] <guterm> quit
[12:51] <lynx_> I am using ubuntu
[12:52] <angelete2> thanks gaelf: i have only shell access, no graphical interface
[12:52] <patrik_> Hi, ive got a problem - im going to start a gnome/openbox session when i login it just goes to a black screen then returns to the normal login screen, how to fix it?
[12:52] <lynx_> WHY ISN'T ANYONE HELPING ME
[12:52] <lynx_> What type of error is it
[12:52] <gaelfx> angelete2: ah, sorry, I didn't see your whole story, could you tell me what it is you need to do?
[12:52] <Pici> !patience | lynx_
[12:53] <xangua> angelete2: well then update the system manually
[12:53] <sipior> lynx_: i think everyone will steer clear of you now.
[12:53] <lynx_> oh well
[12:53] <gaelfx> angelete2: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[12:53] <lynx_> It was woreth a drty
[12:54] <gaelfx> angelete2: er, scratch that second sudo
[12:54] <lynx_> come on fuckin help me
[12:54] <lynx_> come on fuckin help me!
[12:54] <FloodBot1> lynx_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:54] <xangua> lynx_: stop that

[12:55] <Halabund> Do you know of any decent *offline-usable* Chinese dictionaries?  Are there any which allow hovering a character anywhere on the screen, and gives a popup with the translation (there are several that do this on Windows---obviosuly they don't work with all programs but they work with most)
[12:55] <patrik_> :)
[12:55] <patrik_> Hi, ive got a problem - im going to start a gnome/openbox session when i login it just goes to a black screen then returns to the normal login screen, how to fix it? - ive googled it and askubuntu it:/
[12:58] <Halabund> Do you know of any (Chinese) dictionaries for linux which allow me to hover over any word in the UI of any program, press a key combo, and get a translation in a popup?  Several similar programs are available for Windows, and I miss this functionality on Linux.  Note that UI elements are usually not copyable and that I can't easily re-type Chinese characters into a dictionary!
[12:59] <sipior> Halabund: you might have better luck asking in #ubuntu-zh
[12:59] <sipior> Halabund: ah sorry, i have that backward. :-)
[12:59] <Halabund> sipior, don't they speak Chinese there?  My Chinese is not really in a usable state yet ...
[13:00] <Halabund> if it were, I wouldn't need such a dictionary ;)
[13:02] <sam-_-> hey. i wanna setup a vpn server (l2tp/ipsec) on the most recent stable ubuntu. any good and in depth tutorials?
[13:02] <sipior> Halabund: so there's a "stardic" package (not to be confused with stardict). might be worth a look.
[13:04] <Halabund> sipior, do you have a link to their webpage?  Can't google it up, only finding stardic x for Mac.  Or you only found the package?
[13:04] <zen_monkey> i've managed to upgrade to natty but Unity isn't working even close to "good" graphics and mouse glitches motsly, is there any known issue that's pulling this?
[13:06] <sipior> Halabund: hmm. looks like it has been merged with stardict, sometime after the release of hardy. http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/stardic
[13:06] <zen_monkey> stuff like clicking a menu that won't dissapear or hovering over some button displaying help text that wont go from screen until logout
[13:07] <zen_monkey> far away from a usable system if i'm asked :D
[13:13] <sam-_-> hey. i wanna setup a vpn server (l2tp/ipsec) on the most recent stable ubuntu. any good and in depth tutorials?
[13:14] <Halabund> sipior, StarDict seems to have this feature on Windows (see the last screenshot: http://www.stardict.org/ ).  I'll install and see if it works on Linux
[13:14] <Halabund> sipior, thanks for the pointer
[13:16] <mrjohns> Hi. I have this problem with my keyboard. I would like to know how to assign to the windows key of my laptop as the key that have the value of the minor and major sign (this:  <> ). How am I able to modify the keyboard layout, to assign that key (<>) to the windows-key ?. Are there some graphical tool for this ?.
[13:17] <Halabund> sipior, it only works for selectable text, but that's already pretty good for using in irc
[13:18] <josemota> i have installed the nvidia drivers through the additional drivers panel. i had my two monitors working but after the install only one is working.
[13:18] <sipior> mrjohns: have a look at xkeycaps
[13:18] <josemota> how can i put this to work?
[13:18] <mrjohns> sipior, thanks!.
[13:18] <zen_monkey> josemota: anything like an nvidia control panel?
[13:19] <josemota> great, now only my terminal is working.

[13:24] <zertyui> how to call to the password and put  the password on the script ?
[13:26] <rodrigo39-48987> the dhcp server gime IP normaly, but don't access internet in client
[13:26] <Thelmaria> How do I check whether a certain module is currently running in my kernel? modprobe <module> gives no output.
[13:26] <rodrigo39-48987> the server access internet work fine.
[13:26] <rodrigo39-48987> ubunutu-br
[13:27] <sipior> mrjohns: well, it's just an interface to xmodmap, so you can use that.
[13:27] <Pici> Thelmaria: lsmod
[13:27] <mrjohns> sipior, great. Thanks.
[13:27] <D3RGPS31> what's the channel for alpha/beta support
[13:27] <Thelmaria> Pici: Thanks.
[13:27] <zertyui> i try to ssh to my server without asking password each time ssh on it

[13:28] <mikeX> hi, trying to install 11.04 32-bit on a system with two disks, one sata, one ide. While gparted detects both disks and lets me create the partitions I want in the IDE disk (my installation target), only the sata one is detected by the installer. Any idea how to change that?
[13:29] <sipior> zertyui: have a look at setting up rsa authentication keys: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys . also consider using Keychain: http://www.funtoo.org/wiki/Keychain .
[13:29] <mikeX> (sda and sdb respectively, only sda seems detected by the installer)
[13:30] <Thelmaria> rodrigo39-48987: Check your clients gateway address / DHCP gateway settings.
[13:30] <Pricey> Howdy. I've lost my sound volume applet. How do I get it back? (NOT gnome-volume-control-applet, the shiny one that has banshee integration)
[13:31] <Calinou> D3RGPS31: #ubuntu+1
[13:31] <Calinou> Pricey: right click the top taskbar, there should be an option for adding applets
[13:31] <Calinou> here you can have the sound volume applet
[13:31] <Pricey> Calinou: filtering by 'sound', there is nothing.
[13:32] <Pricey> Calinou: I also don't see anything obvious when scrolling the list.
[13:32] <D3RGPS31> Calinou: thank you
[13:32] <Calinou> there's only one volume control applet for me, the one with banshee integration
[13:35] <ionite> does anyone knows how to install barry for black berry phones?
[13:36] <Pricey> Calinou: aha... apparently I'd removed the "indicator-sound" package.
[13:36] <Calinou> oh, that
[13:36] <D3RGPS31> what would i normally do if my openbox autorun aren't being executed :v
[13:36] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[13:36] <Calinou> when using apt-get, check for removed packages
[13:36] <Pricey> Calinou: Thanks for putting me on the right track with 'indicator', I was googling 'applets' :)

[13:43] <Maikl27> hi, I can't convert to 3gp with ffmpeg. I still got this error Encoder (codec id 73728) not found for output stream #0.1. I need install some libs or something?
[13:44] <ionite> does anyone knows how to install barry for black berry phones?
[13:44] <silverarrow_> is there a common reason why some sites, and software are slow? Like xchat taking for ever to connect
[13:44] <silverarrow_> ?
[13:44] <nT4BR> how to regenerate pub key from a private key ssh?
[13:44] <silverarrow_> Transmission is very slow to connect too,
[13:44] <Calinou> encoder not found > need lib...
[13:45] <Calinou> silverarrow_: your connection, or the server's connection probably
[13:45] <Maikl27> Calinou: and which? I can't find it
[13:45] <Calinou> go to http://speedtest.net
[13:45] <Calinou> I don't know
[13:45] <Calinou> I'm not a video master :/
[13:45] <Maikl27> that's bad
[13:45] <silverarrow_> Calinou, probably something like that, but most sites load fine
[13:46] <gaelfx> is there a way to simply search for packages with apt-get without actually installing them?

[13:48] <jstoone> Hey guys, I really want to get into listening to podcasts like UbuntuUK podcast, any suggestions how to listen?
[13:48] <jstoone> which packages etc.
[13:48] <exiff> hello
[13:49] <gaelfx> jstoone: I personally use a Chrome extension called OnAir
[13:49] <exiff> how do I zip directories from the command line?
[13:50] <gaelfx> exiff: you could install 7zip, but I'm sure there's a built-in method that might be just as good
[13:50] <exiff> I wanna convert a lot of files from .cbr to .cbz
[13:50] <jstoone> exiff: unzip <file>
[13:50] <exiff> the problem is I wanna use a script to unrar then zip the directories
[13:51] <jstoone> exiff: Why not tar?
[13:51] <dv310p3r> How do I remove all panels. I'm using a dock now and I don't need panels?
[13:52] <exiff> they are comic book archives... and only cbr and cbz get thumbnails in nautilalus
[13:52] <livingdaylight> Having trouble installing Brother DCP-167 printer on Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit. Anyone have experience with this?
[13:52] <exiff> *nautilus
[13:53] <livingdaylight> Anyone can tell me what dpkg  -i  --force-all does?
[13:53] <exiff> im using python,and all that's missing is the commmand to zip the directories
[13:54] <jstoone> exiff: let me look for 1 sec
[13:54] <glebihan> livingdaylight, it installs the packages passed on the command line, ignoring all errors
[13:54] <exiff> thanks jstoone
[13:54] <livingdaylight> glebihan, is that a way of installing a 32-bit deb file on a 64-bit machine?
[13:56] <glebihan> livingdaylight, no you should not do that (this --force-all option should only be used when trying to repair a broken package database)
[13:56] <exiff> no way I'm manually changing 20 GB worth of cbr files
[13:56] <jstoone> exiff: haha for sure!
[13:56] <livingdaylight> glebihan, ok, thanks
[13:56] <gaelfx> exiff: if I understand correctly, cbz is just the same as a zip file, so anything you can use to make a .zip, you can use that and just rename it as .cbz
[13:56] <livingdaylight> I@m stuck then
[13:57] <jstoone> exiff: what IRC client are you using?
[13:57] <gaelfx> exiff: and I know 7zip can make .zip files ;)
[13:57] <glebihan> livingdaylight, where did you find that package you are trying to install ?
[13:57] <exiff> very well noted gaelfx, but I'm dealing with thousands of individual directories
[13:57] <exiff> I'm using AndroIRC
[13:57] <livingdaylight> glebihan, http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/instruction_prn3.html
[13:58] <illio> I'm getting a really weird error with my Ubuntu install.. I can't open nautilus and look at files.. it doesn't open at all and doesn't give any error messages if open it from a terminal.. I can browse my files just fine form the Terminal though..
[13:58] <gaelfx> exiff: but you also said you're making a script, right? can't you just add the extension change to the script? use 'mv x.zip x.cbz'
[13:59] <RobinJ> i've got a wpa secured wireless network, and i can connect to it using ubuntu server... but how do i make sure it connects on bootup? because i've got an openssh-server running
[13:59] <exiff> zip doesn't let me compress directories...
[13:59] <dv310p3r> I can't delete my last panel. Any help?
[13:59] <jstoone> exiff: gaelfx: there's a python module called "zipfile" - import zipfile - it comes with ubuntu. Here's a little tut: http://effbot.org/librarybook/zipfile.htm
[14:00] <glebihan> livingdaylight, well the instruction are indeed to use that --force-all option but that's really ugly
[14:00] <jstoone> exiff: oh, so you're thinking about the compression? not the "collection" effect
[14:00] <glebihan> livingdaylight, let me have a look at it
[14:00] <livingdaylight> glebihan, appreciate it
[14:00] <exiff> collection?
[14:01] <exiff> essentially I wanna convert many files from rar to zip.
[14:01] <jstoone> exiff: tough one..
[14:01] <gulzar> How to MAKE LXDE as light weight (on resources) as it is on Debian 6.0... ( only 112 MB in standby mode)?
[14:01] <jstoone> exiff: I would REALLY recommend doing some bash magic...
[14:02] <exiff> how does fileroller do it? what command does it use to make cbz?
[14:02] <jewles> w00t, I have sucessfully migrated all my servers from FBSD to Ubuntu server! :)
[14:02] <jstoone> jewles: A bit off-topic, but congratulations mate! Welcome (:
[14:03] <jstoone> exiff: don't know what you mean by "fileroller"?
[14:03] <jewles> sorry i didn't realize there was a 'topic' :)
[14:03] <RobinJ> archive manager = file roller
[14:03] <jstoone> exiff: aha, got it ;)
[14:03] <exiff> bash eh? hmmm... I'll do my best... thanks for your help. ^^,
[14:03] <bastidrazor> dv310p3r: in gconf-editor navigate to desktop/gnome/session/required_components/panel   then delete the words gnome-panel. log out and back in. no more panel
[14:03] <jewles> how does one make the pretty logon banner go away?
[14:03] <Pici> exiff: zip -r file.zip path/
[14:04] <exiff> is it really that simple?
[14:04] <jstoone> Pici: he needs to unrar it first ;)
[14:04] <Pici> jstoone: iirc its unrar x whatever.rar
[14:05] <exiff> unraring is not the issue... ctrl-a,right click, extract here..
[14:05] <glebihan> livingdaylight, well there doesn't seem to be a way to get the source for those packages
[14:05] <jstoone> jewles: Pici Yea, I just thought that he /wanted/ to do it in python.
[14:06] <livingdaylight> glebihan, ok
[14:06] <exiff> and renaming is easy with gprename...
[14:06] <glebihan> livingdaylight, as it comes from the manufacturer, I'd say you might as well give those instructions a try and see if it works, but they did a really ugly job there
[14:06]  * exiff bows
[14:06] <exiff> thank you .
[14:06] <RobinJ> loc
[14:07] <jstoone> exiff: Pici came with the answar, but no problem. ask away if you need any help.
[14:08] <RobinJ> i've got a wpa secured wireless network, and i can connect to it using ubuntu server... but how do i make sure it connects on bootup? because i've got an openssh-server running
[14:09] <silverarrow_> how do you check if you port is being forwarded in transmission ?
[14:09] <RobinJ> by clicking the "check" button beneath the field...
[14:10] <gaelfx> silverarrow_: you go to edit->preferences and the network tab should have a "Check Port" button
[14:10] <rumpe1> RobinJ, look into wpa_supplicant
[14:10] <silverarrow_> gaelfx, so, really simple?
[14:10] <gaelfx> silverarrow_: it doesn't seem to work properly unless you actually have an active torrent going though
[14:10] <RobinJ> sigh
[14:10] <RobinJ> rumpe1: as i said, i can connect
[14:10] <gaelfx> silverarrow_: generally, yeah
[14:10] <RobinJ> but i want it to connect on bootup
[14:11] <Anonymo> Hey, I've got a problem - Ubuntu doesn't shutdown - just hangs midway, and nothing happens?
[14:11] <silverarrow_> gaelfx, I have had weird issues with slow seeding and downloading
[14:11] <datruth> is there a frontend to openvpn?
[14:11] <gaelfx> RobinJ: does it not connect on startup now?
[14:11] <rumpe1> RobinJ, i would try putting it into /etc/rc.local or build a upstart-script
[14:11] <RobinJ> ... probably not or i wouldnt be asking ;p
[14:12] <RobinJ> yeah i know i have to put it there... but how do i put it there?
[14:12] <RobinJ> in what formatting?
[14:12] <RobinJ> rc.local i mean
[14:12] <muneeb> how can i replace evolution with thunderbird in 11.04? and have notifications even if TB is closed?
[14:12] <rumpe1> RobinJ, rc.local is just a regular script
[14:12] <RobinJ> ah, and does it run as root?
[14:12] <rumpe1> RobinJ, yes
[14:12] <RobinJ> ok
[14:12] <RobinJ> thanks
[14:13] <Thelmaria> I have 4 rsync threads running when syncing two harddrives - any way I can reduce that ?
[14:13] <splitpaw-mobile> Robinj you can run like su -c yourusernameyou want it to runas  appname
[14:13] <glebihan> RobinJ, also in order for it to be executed on startup, you have to make sure it is executable
[14:13] <silverarrow_> gaelfx, port is closed ?
[14:14] <oneliner> hello there, i have a distributed cluster of webservers on Rackspace running ubuntu lts 10.04 and i was wondering if hanyone could hint me on health/stress/usage tools/commands/bash scripts i could use to query the servers individually
[14:15] <gaelfx> silverarrow_: it sounds like you haven't forwarded the port, do you have access to the router you're connected to?
[14:15] <gaelfx> silverarrow_: also, is uPnP enabled in the Transmission preferences?
[14:15] <silverarrow_> gaelfx, well when my neighbor comes home, we are sharing internet
[14:16] <silverarrow_> gaelfx, upnp?
[14:16] <gaelfx> silverarrow_: it's a way for Transmission to automatically ask the router to forward the port
[14:17] <gaelfx> silverarrow_: however, if you're just using the modem provided by your ISP, you probably won't be able to forward the ports and whatnot
[14:17] <silverarrow_> gaelfx, I shall look for it
[14:17] <oneliner> Thelmaria: that would depend on your directory structure, if you can relocate all syncable directories under one common path, you could effectively resume with one thread
[14:17] <RobinJ> another point... i'm running openssh-server on my computer, but how can i make sure that when i close the ssh connection on my laptop, the desktop keeps executing the command i started
[14:17] <Thelmaria> oneliner: It's syncing /, with the only exclude being the mount point of the second hdd - all under one path.
[14:18] <dageriv> RobinJ: look up screen
[14:18] <RobinJ> no other way to do it dageriv ?
[14:18] <jamal_> help
[14:18] <josemota> i'm installing netbeans and i need to find the java path. where's it usually at?
[14:18] <dageriv> RobinJ: i dont know. tyr putting a & behind the command. e.g. cat /etc/passwd &
[14:19] <silverarrow_> gaelfx, yes upnp it's marked off for
[14:19] <gaelfx> dageriv: I think that will still keep the process as a child of the session it was created in, could be wrong though
[14:19] <oneliner> Thelmaria: then maybe it needs all the threads for such a wide access, have you tried Lsync?
[14:19] <gaelfx> silverarrow_: does that mean it's on or it's off?
[14:19] <silverarrow_> on
[14:19] <silverarrow_> sorry
[14:20] <oneliner> Lsync works with os triggers so its lighter when it comes to parsing large path structures
[14:20] <jamal__> hello
[14:21] <w30> RobinJ, and also type exit to quit the shell rather than just killing it with the of the  x button
[14:21] <silverarrow_> gaelfx there is an option "pick a random port everytime transmision is started"
[14:21] <gaelfx> RobinJ: http://uw714doc.sco.com/en/SDK_tools/_Special_Characters.htmlhttp://uw714doc.sco.com/en/SDK_tools/_Special_Characters.html
[14:21] <RobinJ> w30: what difference does that make? Oo
[14:21] <Thelmaria> oneliner: Nope, I shall look at it - cheers.
[14:21] <silverarrow_> gaelfx, it would be tricky to open a port?
[14:22] <oneliner> Thelmaria: its what i use :)
[14:22] <jamal__> looking for centreon pro ?
[14:22] <jamal__> any on e?
[14:22] <gaelfx> silverarrow_: if you have upnp, you shouldn't have to do anything to open the port, however, if you don't, it's a little bit tiresome changing it, yes
[14:22] <w30> RobinJ, it does make a difference,why? I dono..
[14:23] <RobinJ> k xd
[14:23] <jamal__> exit
[14:23] <gaelfx> RobinJ: er, sorry, the useful one is: http://uw714doc.sco.com/en/SDK_tools/_Using_the_nohup_Command.html
[14:23] <gaelfx> I guess nohup is the way to let a process run even after you logout
[14:23] <silverarrow_> gaelfx, I hope upnp will work then
[14:24] <Thelmaria> josemota: /usr/bin/java ?
[14:24] <gaelfx> silverarrow_: like I said, if you have your own router, it shouldn't be a problem, it's the ISP provided modems that are generally a pita
[14:24] <josemota> Thelmaria: didn't find it there.
[14:25] <RobinJ> it's strange typing a command on your laptop, and hearing your desktop computer spin up next to you xd
[14:25] <josemota> Thelmaria: never mind
[14:25] <josemota> Thelmaria: it is there.
[14:25] <silverarrow_> gaelfx; I'm not shore what we have, a white box on the second floor in the hall lol
[14:25] <Thelmaria> josemota: If in doubt, 'which java' should give you the path to the binary.
[14:26] <attj> I restart my computer and got this login keyring screen. The problem was that i couldn't type anything on login screen. Actually i can do nothing either mouse or keyboard. So i went started graphic failsafe mode and removed the keyring but now it asks a new password and confirm that password not removed
[14:26] <attj> and i still can't type or use mouse
[14:26] <pyarun> hey guys, i am stuk with the user permissions. my ftp user writes a file to dir A then other user will have to move this file to some other dir. but the files created by ftp have only rw for user, its not taking the the parent dir permissions,
[14:26] <w30> RobinJ, Linux was born on the internet so networking is natural to it.
[14:27] <RobinJ> :p
[14:27] <attj> is there a way to login via terminal or remove that key totally?
[14:27] <pyarun> plz help me with applying the parent dir permission to its files
[14:27] <attj> that keyriing
[14:28] <Almindor> hello
[14:28] <erkan^> !firefox
[14:28] <Almindor> I have trouble with getting LAMP working on Ubuntu Server
[14:28] <Nemomni> Hi, I have a problem: I have removed the panel which is in top-right of the screen, the one indicating time and so on. How can I add it again?
[14:28] <Almindor> I installed all the packages and the DB is running but PHP doesn't seem to be able to work with mysql
[14:29] <Almindor> like if it can't find the .so, I even specified extension_dir and made symlinks to the mysql.so
[14:29] <Nemomni> Hi, I have a problem: I have removed the panel which is in top-right of the screen, the one indicating time and so on. How can I add it again?
[14:30] <petoo> Hello
[14:30] <Nemomni> hello
[14:30] <Nemomni> petoo, can you help me?
[14:31] <Pici> Nemomni: Did you remove the entire panel, or just that applet?
[14:31] <Guest75724> salut
[14:31] <hylian> Guest75724, hello
[14:32] <Guest75724> hello
[14:32] <josemota> Thelmaria: Netbeans is complaining of not finding the JDK, hence the question
[14:32] <pmitros> I was wondering if someone could help me with three tests. (1) Check what DNS server is serving mitros.org (b) If it's the new one (dyndns and not everydns), check the MX records (c) Send a test e-mail to my account there.
[14:33] <Thelmaria> pyarun: I think what you're after is a file ACL - googleing for 'directory specific umask' leads me to the 'setfacl' command, which I have never used - might be of use to you.
[14:33] <pmitros> I just switched servers, and the old ones are still in cache over here.
[14:33] <pyarun> Thelmaria: thanks for the tip
[14:33] <Thelmaria> josemota: How are you installing netbeans ?
[14:33] <josemota> through its installer
[14:34] <josemota> Thelmaria: i downloaded directly from their website
[14:34] <josemota> it's a 130+MB .sh file
[14:34] <hylian> Guest75724, if you want to just talk, let me suggest channel ##club-ubuntu. a nice lively bunch.
[14:35] <Thelmaria> josemota: There is a netbeans in the ubuntu repos, you could try installing that - although I don't know how recent / updated it is. Afraid I can't help much w.r.t no JDK, I don't use netbeans.
[14:35] <josemota> Thelmaria: me neither. In fact, I don't even use Java. Work thing.
[14:35] <petoo> Pici, I am using hping with root privilege and it gives back reply as : "sendto operation not permitted" , how can i make it work?
[14:36] <Pici> petoo: I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with hping.
[14:36] <cherry> hey can anyone help me with a video card issue?
[14:36] <petoo> Pici, its ok thanks anyway :)
[14:36] <Thelmaria> josemota: You do have a JDK installed?
[14:37] <cherry> or it may be a sound card issue
[14:37] <cherry> idk
[14:37] <josemota> Thelmaria: I realized I do not. Installing openjdk-6-jdk
[14:38] <Thelmaria> josemota: That should do it. :)
[14:38] <cherry> basicly every time i watch a youtube video my comoputer freezez
[14:38] <josemota> Thelmaria: I certainly hope so. If it were me, I'd install ruby 1.9 and that's it.
[14:38] <cherry> and then it flashes a Nvida screen and goes to login
[14:39] <hylian> cherry, are you watching youtube in full screen when this happens?
[14:39] <cherry> no
[14:40] <MoL0ToV> i to all! i just write: sudo update-rc.d tftpd-hpa defaults   , but if i reboot i cannot see tftp server running. someone can say to me the reason?
[14:40] <cherry> I get like halfway through the video then it breaks
[14:41] <josemota> thank you very much for helping, Thelmaria. Have a great one :)
[14:41] <hylian> cherry, my first suggestion would be to install and try another browser, i am assuming you are usine firefox. try this on chrome, because I am not 100% convinced this is your video card..
[14:41] <Thelmaria> josemota: You too.
[14:41] <cherry> ok
[14:42] <attj> does somebody know how to remove login keyring when ubuntu starts?
[14:42] <pmitros> Guess not.
[14:42] <attj> when it comes to screen i cannot use my mouse or keyboard
[14:43] <hylian> attj, if you go into your home folder, and then use control h, you will see hidden folders. one of them will say gnome2. in their is a keyring folder. delete the contents in the keyring folder.
[14:43] <cherry> k watching now
[14:43] <cherry> if i quit randomly
[14:43] <cherry>  you know why
[14:43] <hylian> cherry, understood.
[14:44] <attj> at my keyrings folder find user.keystore and .user.keystore.swp
[14:44] <bfig> how can i recover a job i ^Z'ed in graphical mode?
[14:44] <hylian> attj, you can safely remove everything in that folder, provided you already know all your passwords to websites.
[14:44] <bfig> (i accidentally pressed ^Z in gvim)
[14:45] <attj> hylian, i have to use recovery mode because the problem :)
[14:45] <lrojas> hi all, i would like some advice on what laptop could i buy that fully supports linux? ( i would like something slightly modern, 15", etc )
[14:45] <Thelmaria> bfig: fg
[14:45] <bfig> if i was in a terminal i could just use fg or bg or jobs or something, but in the gui i 'lost' it
[14:45] <Thelmaria> bfig: heh, nevermind me.
[14:45] <frostschutz> bfig: then you most likely closed it. check ps -A | grep gvim
[14:46] <MoL0ToV> i to all! i just write: sudo update-rc.d tftpd-hpa defaults   , but if i reboot i cannot see tftp server running. someone can say to me the reason?
[14:46] <bullgard6> What DEB program package provides the "English - German Dictionary 1.5 [english-german]"?
[14:46] <glebihan> bfig, Ctrl+Z does not stop an application in gui
[14:46] <hylian> attj, did you delete everything inside the keyring folder?
[14:46] <attj> yep, and reboot
[14:46] <z1984> do most ubuntu users use an antivirus?
[14:46] <bfig> weird.. it appeared... in the taskbar?
[14:46] <attj> same problem still :(
[14:46] <bfig> maybe i... never lost it?
[14:46] <cherry> yeah it happened again
[14:46] <hylian> cherry, i see. it most likely is the vid card... i yiy yiy
[14:46]  * bfig is very confused
[14:47] <cherry> i have that driver set up tho
[14:47] <cherry> the "addional driver"
[14:47] <genii-around> z1984: Probably not most. But if you send files to a Windows box from your linux, it may not be a bad idea
[14:47] <cherry> could that be it?
[14:47] <z1984> genii-around: thanks :)
[14:47] <hylian> cherry, the best option is the recommended driver, is that the one you have installed?
[14:47] <cherry> yeah
[14:47] <hdtdi> hi, i have a PC and i have ubuntu. now when i click connection i get "wireless is disabled by hardware switch".. any ideas how to enable it? everywhere in the internet they say fn+f2 but i have no fn button on my normal keyboard
[14:48] <bfig> glebihan, frostschutz, Thelmaria it appeared in the taskbar. i just had a crapload of stuff on it, so i didn't even check (including other gvims). since it disappear without saying anything i figured it just went to bg :|
[14:48] <cherry> hdtdi, is there a switch with a wifi logon on you computer?
[14:48] <bfig> well thanks for the tips anyway :)
[14:48] <HelloWorld321> Do I have to install Maven seperately, or does it come within NetBeans?
[14:48] <cherry> *logo
[14:48] <bfig> bye :)
[14:48] <hylian> cherry, because my set up offers my the reommended and 2 additionals, and because you used that wording, i was thinking maybe the best driver for stability isn't loaded, am I wrong?
[14:48] <hdtdi> cherry, i am not really sure what is the wifi logo?
[14:49] <attj> hylian, my /.gnome2/keyrings folder is now empty but it still ask a new keyring password and confimation that password.
[14:49] <egoproctor> if I am trying to learn about hardening an ubuntu distro will the debian security manual suffice or are their other documents I should also reference?
[14:49] <cherry> on my computer its an anntena with lines next to it
[14:49] <hylian> attj, yes it will. but if you enter nothing, and just hit continue, it will ask you if you want to continue unsafely without a password, and then you say yes.
[14:50] <cherry> hylian, i jsut chase the one that said reccmineded but ill see what one I have
[14:50] <hdtdi> well i looked for something like that.. at the back on my pc and at the front panel but i cant find any signs
[14:50] <attj> hylian, i can't press nothing :)
[14:50] <hdtdi> no wifi logo.. and no switch at all
[14:51] <hylian> attj, it should say continue, not nothing, is there 2 fields for password entry, or one?
[14:51] <cherry> hylian, ther is (version current) and version 173
[14:51] <attj> i mean ubuntu doesn't take any orders from my mouse or keyboard
[14:51] <cherry> i am using version current
[14:51] <attj> 2 fields: new password and confirm
[14:52] <hylian> cherry, version current is best. i would suggest trying another driver, but the recommended, which I believe is your version current, is usually the most stable.
[14:52] <cherry> could it also be my audo?
[14:52] <cherry> cause i just messed with that
[14:52] <Guest91560> n
[14:52] <Guest91560> i dont think so...
[14:52] <hdtdi> cherry, i am sure i have wifi coz lshw -C network shows http://pastebin.com/SFXvVaJ4
[14:52] <cherry> hdtdi, no switches?
[14:53] <hdtdi> cherry, switch is like button right? on/off ?
[14:53] <cherry> yeah
[14:53] <cherry> like on the back or somthing
[14:53] <hdtdi> well. no switches
[14:53] <cherry> and that its an ethernet poert
[14:53] <cherry> i think
[14:53] <cherry> wait nvm
[14:55] <hdtdi> cherry, is it possible to be somewhere inside the box?
[14:56] <cherry> probally not
[14:56] <hylian> cherry, it could be. cherry, i am trying to think of a way to test this.. i am going to do some research, what exactly did you do to your audio?
[14:56] <MoL0ToV> solved adding /etc/init.d/tftpd-hpa start ; /etc/init.d/vsftpd start ; in rc.local
[14:56] <dv310p3r> I can't get AWN to show a desktop drapes icon. Any ideas?
[14:57] <cherry> I was trying to get my bose spekers working so i messed with the ASLA config, changing the defaults.ctl.card 0
[14:57] <cherry> defaults.pcm.card 0
[14:57] <cherry> to 1's
[14:57] <Thelmaria> What is /proc/kcore?
[14:58] <hylian> cherry, not that i want you to download a lot of software, but I suggest next using something like minitube, which can be found in the software center. it doesn't use flash, so if it somehow is related to flash, we will definetly see a difference. anyway we can use to rule out a possibility is a good way :)
[14:58] <cherry> ok
[15:01] <hylian> cherry i think the one in the repos doesn't work.. atleast i am getting no functioning here.
[15:02] <cherry> yeah same
[15:02] <NSQ> quick question: is it possible now to create a encrypted lvm with the live cd, or do i still need the alternate cd for that ?
[15:02] <cherry> freezes on video
[15:03] <cherry> hold on leme try somthing
[15:03] <cherry> i jsut unpluged the usbn speakers
[15:03] <NSQ> or lets say, is it possible to fully encrypt my whole disk with the ubuntu live cd? is there a option for that? .. i heard in previous version you had to download alternate cd to do this.
[15:04] <hylian> cherry i got minitube to work by simply downloading it here http://flavio.tordini.org/minitube, and then unzipping it, and running minitube out of that folder. this would be a decent way to make sure it's not flash
[15:06] <hylian> attj, did you just press confirm without entering a password?
[15:06] <attj> hylian, i can not :(
[15:06] <ares_> Hello
[15:06] <hylian> attj, strange, normally that's the solution, why can't you? no mouse?
[15:06] <hylian> ares_, hello
[15:06] <cherry> nope
[15:07] <hylian> cherry, did you see my second post about minitube?
[15:07] <attj> hylian, yep, can not use my mouse or keyboard. ubuntu doesn't take any orders from them
[15:07] <ares_> Who can recommend a good talking program which works on linux and windows like skype
[15:07] <cherry> that it doesnt work?
[15:07] <cherry> skype
[15:07] <hylian> cherry, cherry i got minitube to work by simply downloading it here http://flavio.tordini.org/minitube, and then unzipping it, and running minitube out of that folder. this would be a decent way to make sure it's not flash
[15:07] <fmauro> or google talk inbrowser
[15:07] <nCrazed> ares_ skype, google talk
[15:07] <ares_> skype is piece of shit
[15:07] <nCrazed> or mumble/ts/ventrillo
[15:08] <ares_> i tried messenger
[15:08] <ziikutv> ares_ Agreed
[15:08] <ares_> but i have problem with it
[15:08] <hylian> attj, strange... is this a usb keyboard, or a older round type?
[15:08] <ares_> you can't call in that program :(
[15:08] <attj> hylian, i read somewhere that if login keyring password is same as user password, that screen should never come. Any thoughts how i might change that password in recovery mode?
[15:09] <h00k> ares_: please keep the language appropriate for the channel
[15:09] <ziikutv> Hi can anyone help me? 2/4 times when i go on a page w/ flash on it.. the area of flash content appears black.. sometimes when I refresh the content appears... but its such a beetch refreshing all the times as Flash is everywhere.
[15:09] <ares_> Sorry I'm talking english very bad
[15:09] <attj> hylian, My keyboard is trusty and old one (~8 years) :)
[15:10] <hylian> attj, have you booted to regular mode since removing keyrings?
[15:10] <NSQ> ziikutv: what browser do you use? or is it on every browser?
[15:10] <fr0sted> hi, is there a way to boot into my ubuntu boot / from within windows 7 ? so i can install the drivers i need etc without haviong to boot into ubuntu, then backk to 7 etc ?
[15:10] <attj> hylian, yes
[15:10] <hylian> cherry yeah i have skype, do you mean so you can see my desktop?
[15:10] <ziikutv> I am using chromium.
[15:10] <hylian> attj, is it a usb keyboard though?
[15:10] <cherry> no i was responding to someone else :p
[15:11] <cherry> in minitue its working so far
[15:11] <attj> hylian, no usb in my keyboard
[15:11] <ziikutv> it also occurs in firefox
[15:11] <attj> does that really matter?
[15:11] <fr0sted> anyone?
[15:12] <Pici> fr0sted: no.
[15:12] <cherry> hylian, it works without flash
[15:12] <VerdeNube> hi, i need help  with my internet connection ...
[15:12] <hylian> attj, i was hoping it was usb, so you could move it to another port... i have to admit i am stumped...
[15:12] <fr0sted> Pici not even with some kind of virtual box ?
[15:13] <attj> :)
[15:13] <attj> hylian, my mouse uses an usb-port though
[15:13] <hylian> cherry, ahh, so this is a flash problem... strange. this is either a flahs problem directly, or it is a flash to browser problem... hmm.
[15:13] <hylian> attj, move it, and see if you get anything, usb ports have a strange issue of become "acclimated"
[15:14] <fr0sted> my problem is this, i cant get my wifi adaptor to work, its not shown in lspci, and i cant find anything about it on the internet .. so cant get connected to the internet using ubuntu
[15:14] <VerdeNube> does anyone here knows how i can reset my network settings in ubutu 10.04?
[15:15] <hylian> cherry, well, thanks to minitube, we know what the problem is.. i would start by removing flash and reinstalling it...
[15:15] <cherry> ok
[15:15] <VerdeNube> i was configguring my router this morning for ssh, anyway i only end up not having a connection in my ubuntu
[15:15] <skutrr> hey, I'm having trouble booting.... sometimes it will get stuck on the bootloader screen, and sometimes I get a flashing line at the top left corner of my screen Ubuntu 11.04 please help
[15:15] <VerdeNube> so now, im using xp, installed in virtualbox
[15:16] <hylian> attj, anything from moving the mouse?
[15:16] <VerdeNube> strange cause i have connection in my virtualbox but not in my main OS (ubuntu)
[15:16] <cherry> kk reinstallign now
[15:17] <attj> hylian, i can hoover the cursor with mouse but nothing happes when i press buttons
[15:17] <NSQ> VerdeNube: afaik there is a option that a virtualbox machine appears as well yeah ... a new machine :P .. so it has a different interal ip and mac adress, that's why your vm has a connection maybe.
[15:18] <hylian> attj, strange, so that gets rid of the acclimation problem, but still can't use the mouse... i am afraid i am out of options... this is a strange error. i think i need to ask someone to join in on the "fun".
[15:18] <cannonball> Hi all, I need some pointers.  A coworker has 11.04 with encrypted home dir.  It's broken and won't decrypt his home directory.  (He had changed his user id to make an nfs mount, don't know exactly how long ago it was.  We changed it back, but it won't decrypt his home directory now when he logs in).
[15:18] <VerdeNube> NSQ: yeah, that figures.. but do you know how i can reset my network settings in ubuntu? tnx
[15:19] <hylian> everyone, attj has an unusual error, and I was wondering if you could help him. he has no keyboard or mouse control, either with safe mode or normal mode... and I am stumped
[15:19] <cannonball> I've not worked with encrypted homed irectory before. I'm trying to figure out where in the process it's breaking and not exactly sure where to look.
[15:19] <attj> hylian, thank you very much :) I'm alredy ran out options
[15:19] <cherry> ugh this takes forever to isntall
[15:21] <hylian> cherry, sorry... but that probably means that you are getting a new version, unless you used the "remove completely" option in synaptic
[15:21] <cherry> kk there
[15:22] <cherry> should I try again
[15:22] <NSQ> VerdeNube: uh, i think maybe it's your router, if you changed anything there, i would try to reset the router. Anyways, to be honest how to reset that with gnome/ubuntu .. if it's a wireless connection, just delete your connection from the network-manager menu (right click on the icon>properties>wifi), with cable i dunno, sry.
[15:23] <NSQ> VerdeNube: *to be honest i dont know
[15:23] <skutrr> hey, I'm having trouble booting.... sometimes it will get stuck on the bootloader screen, and sometimes I get a flashing line at the top left corner of my screen Ubuntu 11.04 please help
[15:23] <Netfrog> we
[15:24] <VerdeNube> NSQ: it's alright...i've also tried deleting my network connection in network manager, still nothing
[15:25] <VerdeNube> the router too has already been reset
[15:25] <cherry> still borked
[15:25] <hylian> cherry, i yiy yiy
[15:26] <VerdeNube> if the're still a problem in the router, most likely i willl not be able to connect in virtualbox as well...
[15:26] <VerdeNube> but i have connection in VB, not in my main OS
[15:27] <hylian> cherry, i am going to do some research, and see what i come up with... strange. ok do what we know so far, either the browser, flash, or a combination of the two is causing this, most likely. it's probably not the browser, because we tried a different one... anything i am missing?
[15:27] <cherry> ASAL posssibly
[15:27] <cherry> but i dont think that is it

[15:34] <AnonPro> hay, I have a question. I have 4 GB of RAM, a Intel Pentium processor and I don't know If I should download the 64 or 32 bit version of ubuntu. And a ATI 4500m series
[15:34] <DaSpawn> anyone have any ideas on the strange config caching effect in php?  I am changing the correct php.ini file but the changes will not take effect untill I completely restart the entire server, restarting the web server the change will not take, what am I missing?
[15:34] <VerdeNube> i lost my internet connect in ubuntu so im now using xp in virtualbox
[15:34] <psycho693> 64bit it will utilize the 4 gigs
[15:34] <hylian> cherry, this appears to be a bug with the browsers, actually. they both use the mozilla flash to browser system. you can edit the flash.sh file, but this is a little tricky, and I don't know how you feel about digging deep into your system files, so i await your response...
[15:35] <cherry> im down
[15:35] <cherry> where can i find it

[15:35] <psycho693> Your welcome but do you know which intel processor you have?
[15:35] <frostschutz> AnonPro: "Intel Pentium processor" is awfully vague, my first PC was an Intel Pentium processor with 90Mhz and that was long before 64bit. If your processor is fully 64bit capable use 64bit otherwise 32bit
[15:35] <f00f> DaSpawn, did yopu do /etc/init.d/apache restart
[15:36] <psycho693> frostschutz thanks I was just about to make sure..
[15:36] <f00f> sry im not sure that is location of scrip in ubuntu
[15:36]  * cherry sudo nano then waits for hylian
[15:36] <AnonPro> @frostschutz, This is my netbook. I have a great PC witha Intel i5 second edition
[15:37] <hylian> cherry the .sh file we want to edit is in your firefox directory, it will either be called simply firefox.sh, or it will be called firefox(version number).sh
[15:37] <w30> AnonPro,going  64 bit is like going 32 bit from 16 bit. It's going to be necessary some day. Why not get on the band wagon now?
[15:37] <psycho693> AnonPro: what processor does your netbook have in it?
[15:37] <AnonPro> I'm using kubuntu 11.04 64 bit right now
[15:37] <hylian> cherry, it's in /usr/lib/firefox, again by itself, or /usr/lib/firefox(version number)
[15:37] <psycho693> Your fine then lol
[15:37] <TheWarden> Hi, I'm trying to install an Asus USB-N13 wireless N adapter driver for Ubuntu 10.04.
[15:37] <DaSpawn> f00f yes I restarted the webs, it may be related to fastcgi not closing processes, I killed everything and it works..  wonder why web server does not kill fastcgi processes on restart...  oh well, guess I answered my own question..  thanks though..
[15:38] <psycho693> Anonpro just keep going with the 64bit
[15:38] <TheWarden> However when I run sudo make install I get "install: cannot stat `rt2870sta.ko': No such file or directory"

There might be an option in one of those two programs in their video settings. I was able to find a setting that fixed my screen tearing in xbmc before I found the ati fix
[15:46] <sipior> psycho693: then i guess you're out of luck.
[15:46] <hylian> attj, any luck?
[15:46] <attj> hylian, not yet, keep googling :)

[15:50] <silverarrow> I usually close transmission with pressing "x" in the upper right corner, but it will not respond? should I just turn of  computer?

[15:51] <hume> silverarrow, you talking about the torrent program transmission?
[15:51] <SIFTU> oneliner: wouldnt you just use nagios or something similar?
[15:52] <silverarrow> hume yes
[15:52] <hume> silverarrow, you can try xkill
[15:52] <silverarrow> hume, however cltr q sort of sol ved the problem
[15:52] <silverarrow> hume, noted
[15:52] <silverarrow> thanks
[15:53] <hume> silverarrow,  or do ps ax | grep transmission in a terminal, and then  kill <process numver>
[15:53] <hplpb> or killall transmission
[15:53] <silverarrow> hplpb, no killall did not work
[15:54] <lotuspsychje> how can i check if the webkit exploits for ubuntu have been patched?
[15:54] <silverarrow> hume, yet again noted, I tried killall but no reaction
[15:54] <rhin0> killall -9 if just killall fails

[15:56] <silverarrow> dAnunt, reinstall grub from ubuntu cd?, there is a function there
[15:56] <hylian> cherry this is not firefox, i think. we pointed directly at the gl, and still crashola... i think this is a flashplayer with your vid card problem. you could try and run a hulu or other flash video site, and if you still have the problem, change vid card driver...

[15:59] <cherry> no
[15:59] <hylian> cherry, this is not firefox, i think. we pointed directly at the gl, and still crashola... i think this is a flashplayer with your vid card problem. you could try and run a hulu or other flash video site, and if you still have the problem, change vid card driver...
[15:59] <silverarrow> dAnunt, yes, but for Ubuntu it is easiest to get stable result from the Ubuntu CD or perhaps usb if you have

[16:00] <cherry> ok
[16:00] <cherry> ill try some porn
[16:00] <dAnunt> can i have the website
[16:00] <hplpb> if you have a usb flash drive, you could create a bootable ubuntu usb drive and boot into that to fix grub
[16:01] <dAnunt> i droped it in my car have not seein it sis then
[16:01] <hylian> cherry, on a website? because I am pretty sure that if it's on your computer, totem doesn't play those file with flash...
[16:01] <iamaham> sorry was disconnected
[16:01] <silverarrow> dAnunt, you have noone near you to ask for help with burning / usb install?
[16:02] <cherry> hulu broke

[16:02] <cherry> ill try a flash game
[16:02] <hylian> cherry, did hulu ever work?
[16:02] <cherry> idk i nver tride it
[16:02] <cherry> *tried
[16:02] <since96>  everybody
[16:02] <since96> hello
[16:02] <hylian> cherry, because it could be our modified sh file.

[16:03]  * cherry goes to try pornhub
[16:03] <hplpb> speaking of ubuntu usb install, has anyone had trouble creating the usb install from within windows? I was only able to get it to work after burning and booting the live cd, then creating the usb install from ubuntu
[16:03] <since96> is microsoft office 97 works into ubuntu ?
[16:03] <eros_> If a file is a .tar.bz2 , the .tar is the equivalent or an .exe and the .bz2 means its compressed ?
[16:04] <lotuspsychje> !webkit
[16:04] <cherry> wait....
[16:04] <silverarrow> dAnunt http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/
[16:04] <cherry> could it be beacuse im sharing this profile with a windows PC?
[16:05] <lotuspsychje> any tool to test recent exploits for natty?
[16:05] <cherry> hylian, now im getting Error #2046 on flash videos
[16:05] <hylian> cherry, no, the 2 are as seperate as the earth and the moon, in more ways than one...
[16:05] <whyking> despite nfs-kernel-server being added via rc-update.d nfs-kernel-server default it does not start during boot, any ideas?
[16:06] <hylian> cherry, that's probably our modified sh file. that little trick we did is specifically for youtube. if you take your backed up version and replace it that little problem will probably go away.
[16:07] <cherry> ok
[16:07] <hylian> cherry, try hulu with chrome... just out of curiousty
[16:08] <cherry> o
[16:08] <cherry> k
[16:09] <cherry> working so far
[16:09] <silverarrow> major quitting at once
[16:10] <lotuspsychje> is ubuntu vunrable for usb autorun infections?
[16:10] <cherry> right as i said that it broke
[16:11] <hylian> cherry, if hulu on chrome works, this is a youtube error specifically... at which point it may be on youtube's end, sending a command flash on linux with you vid card can't handle...
[16:11] <cherry> no hulu doesnt work
[16:11] <cherry> it brakes at like a minute
[16:11] <genii-around> lotuspsychje: Yes. http://www.net-security.org/secworld.php?id=10544
[16:12] <sipior> lotuspsychje: not autorun vulnerabilities, but there are amusing things one can do by modifying the firmware on the stick. don't plug untrusted hardware into your computer.
[16:13] <kusznir> Hi all: I've got an ubuntu 11.04 system with NFS-mounted home directories.  Users on the nfs-homes are unable to run evince (gives: EggSMClient-WARNING **: Failed to connect to the session manager: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported), but users not on NFS are able to do so.  Suggestions for correcting it?
[16:13] <hylian> cherry, ok this is not a youtube problem. again we are back to flash being the culprit, or your video card, or both... i would repair the sh file, and try another vid driver, and hope....
[16:13] <cherry> kk
[16:13] <hylian> cherry, as a side note this is most likely not your vid card, but the combination, of which hopefully the other driver can resolve.,
[16:14] <sipior> genii-around: that's an interesting step backwards for linux :-)
[16:16] <lotuspsychje> any way to block sipior?
[16:16] <cherry> kk ill try the new driver
[16:16] <sipior> lotuspsychje: not really. don't plug in untrusted usb sticks.
[16:17] <damno> can I syncronise two local directories using a terminal command?
[16:17] <hume> hplpb, I'm trying  but no luck, but now I discovered that the tearing effect can be produced just by grabbing a window with the mouse and shaking it...then it tears... does that tell you more?
[16:17] <tomodachi> hume: try to enablev vsync
[16:18] <tomodachi> i compiz-config-settings-manager
[16:18] <tomodachi> if not already enabled
[16:18] <johannix> was wondering if there's a way to permanently set /etc/resolv.conf. Whenever I make changes to it, it reverts back when I restart the machine.
[16:18] <hplpb> yeah, sounds like vsync is still not on

[16:19] <wildc4rd> what is the general preference when running 2 monitors, go for separate x sessions or just run 2 monitors on one session
[16:19] <pavi> I am using some virtual hosting which gave me two hard disks sdb and sdc . Can I combine them and use them ?
[16:19] <damno> hume: enable vsync and vblanc from both your gpu driver control center and ccsm
[16:19] <qin> johannix: man chattr, or make cron to change file after network-manager
[16:19] <hume> damno, how do you mean? (trying the compiz-config manager now)
[16:20] <SIFTU> damno: yes try.. rsync
[16:20] <lotuspsychje> sipior: so far for ubuntu security :p
[16:20] <johannix> qin: thanks. I'll look into it
[16:20] <hplpb> wildc4rd: I'm starting to lean towards two x sessions.. windows keep opening up on the wrong monitor when I don't want them to randomly
[16:20] <damno> hume: yes.. there is a vsync option in ccsm
[16:20] <SIFTU> pavi: yes using LVM or software RAID
[16:20] <sipior> lotuspsychje: the problem is hardly specific to ubuntu, or indeed to linux.
[16:20] <johannix> qin: so there's no way to tell network-manager directly what to do?
[16:21] <pavi> SIFTU,  so I can make RAID work on a VM ?
[16:21] <qin> johannix: NOt that I know of.
[16:21] <wildc4rd> hplpb, thats what I am trying at the moment, and yes, it seems good
[16:21] <lotuspsychje> sipior: did you read the 22 exploits for ubuntu 10.10 last days?
[16:21] <johannix> qin: K. thanks.
[16:21] <cherry> kk im restartin noe
[16:21] <cherry> now
[16:21] <SIFTU> pavi: yeah software RAID.. but you should probably just use LVM as you can shrink/exapand partitions
[16:22] <hume> damno, i have a nividia-card - is it the VBlank option in Xserver Xvideo Settings, or in the OpenGL settings, or both?
[16:22] <pavi> SIFTU, LVM sounds better , still the same question can I use it on VM ?
[16:22] <sipior> lotuspsychje: so?
[16:22] <SIFTU> pavi: yes, it's all done on a software layer
[16:23] <hplpb> wildc4rd: yeah, I think I'm going to try that soon. I'm also having the problem of not being able to set my 2nd monitor to the left of my 1st monitor without my main desktop stuff only showing up on the 2nd monitor
[16:23] <lotuspsychje> sipior: i just was wondering about how secure everybody says ubuntu is...
[16:23] <damno> hume: I have both the vsync and the vblanc options in the xvideo sett. checked on
[16:23] <eros_> What is the command to open a textfile
[16:23] <hume> damno, ok
[16:23] <wildc4rd> hplpb, are there any performance sacrifices as such?
[16:23] <pavi> SIFTU,  thanks will look into getting LVM on 10.04 :)
[16:23] <eros_> I tried gedit but no luck
[16:23] <sipior> lotuspsychje: use something else if it bothers you. it won't be an improvement.
[16:23] <SIFTU> pavi: lots of tutorials out there
[16:24] <damno> hume: but you still need to enable vblanc from ccsm to get around those creepy tears
[16:24] <hume> damno, ehr.... what do you mean? Is there a setting in the nvidia-settings called "Vsync"?
[16:24] <lotuspsychje> sipior: doesnt bother me, i wanna be informed how safe an Os is...
[16:24] <hume> damno, ok, trying the ccsm too, installing
[16:24] <damno> hume: yes  I do
[16:24] <hplpb> wildc4rd: don't know with two x sessions, I haven't tried it yet.. I would imagine it would have some effect on performance thoug
[16:24] <Gentoo64> lotuspsychje, ubuntu is safe
[16:24] <hume> damno, where? I just have VBlank
[16:25] <hume> damno, "Sync to VBlank"
[16:25] <lotuspsychje> Gentoo64: if its safe why they need to pach 22 exploits for it?
[16:25] <sipior> lotuspsychje: have you read the details for those exploits? go do that now.
[16:25] <Gentoo64> lotuspsychje, even hardened kernels like grsec have vulnerabilities
[16:26] <lotuspsychje> Gentoo64: http://threatpost.com/en_us/blogs/ubuntu-fixes-webkit-flaws-other-issues-updates-082311
[16:26] <damno> hume: maybe bcoz of the driver differences
[16:26] <sipior> lotuspsychje: you realise webkit is not ubuntu-specific, right?
[16:26] <GreenDance> Hi
[16:26] <hume> damno, would that mean I'm using a driver without vsync option? I'm using "current", recommended by jockey
[16:27] <cherry> seems to work
[16:27] <GreenDance> what are the key differences between ubuntu and debian please?
[16:27] <cherry> hylian, then you so mutch
[16:27] <Calinou> debian is for geeks, ubuntu is for newbies
[16:27] <cherry> thank
[16:27] <Calinou> short definition
[16:27] <cherry> thank
[16:27] <FloodBot1> cherry: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:27] <Calinou> cherry: stop
[16:27] <damno> that differes upon gpu...
[16:27] <damno> hume: that differes upon gpu...
[16:27] <damno> hume: what gpu do u have
[16:27] <hume> ok
[16:27] <tim__> My screen resolution changed to 1024x768. Everything is large and off the screen now.  I cannot autodetect the monitor or change the settings.  Any advice?
[16:28] <hylian> cherry, did it work? :)
[16:28] <sipior> Calinou: i've been running one linux or another for more than a decade and a half. your answer is deeply flawed.
[16:28] <cherry> yessir
[16:28] <eros_> Ok how about this, I am trying to install sublime text via terminal. I decompressed the .tar.bz2 file, entered the "Sublime Text 2" dir but there is not install to make install. There is a green? file named sublime_text that i think is prob the install instructions but dont know how to open it any help
[16:28] <iText> is it a good idea to stick to default irc2 as a irc client on ubuntu?
[16:28] <hume> damno, GeForce 8500 GT
[16:28] <Calinou> I know
[16:28] <hylian> cherry, awesome!
[16:28] <damno> hume:  mine is geforce 7025
[16:28] <Calinou> sipior: I'm not a geek/nolife/insomniac
[16:28] <Calinou> ;P
[16:28] <oCean> Calinou: please keep the sillyness in #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:28] <cherry>  just want ot try one more hting
[16:29] <SIFTU> iText: use whatever client you wish
[16:29] <cherry> but now my monter doesnt show up :/
[16:29] <hylian> cherry, your monitor, on the nvidia panel?
[16:29] <cherry> yeah
[16:30] <cherry> i am on a laptop and i use an external monter
[16:30] <iText> irc2 seems more decent than xchat
[16:30] <eros_> nm Vi I guess can i ask when the green file name means
[16:30] <Gentoo64> iText, use what you like. xchat is decent
[16:30] <damno> hume: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/VDPAU#Tearing.2FStuttering
[16:30] <cherry> from my display port
[16:30] <Pici> !enter
[16:30] <iText> how do we cascade windows in ubuntu
[16:31] <Gentoo64> iText, do you mean tile them?
[16:31] <iText> yes mostly the terminal window tiling
[16:31] <Gentoo64> afaik you need to manually place them
[16:31] <Gentoo64> of course there are specific tiling window managers
[16:32] <hume> damno, thanks. but how is that related to VDPAU?
[16:32] <sacarlson> itext you can create a script to open a few terminals with specified positions
[16:32] <damno> hume: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1742643&page=3
[16:32] <damno> hume: see the 5th thread
[16:33] <damno> hume: hume: see the 5th post *sorry
[16:33]  * iText googling on tiling windows on ubuntu like systems
[16:33] <sacarlson> itext example gnome-terminal --geometry=40x20+100+100 -t testnet -x ./multicoind -datadir=/home/sacarlson/.bitcoin/testnet
[16:33] <sacarlson> s
[16:33] <hylian> cherry, you can gksu nvidia-settings, and remove and add monitors (sometimes)
[16:33] <Gentoo64> iText, you can use another wm on top of unity etc
[16:34] <cherry> gksu?
[16:34] <sipior> iText: there's the ion window manager. also ratpoison (i think that's still being developed, anyway)
[16:34] <hume> damno, great, thx
[16:34] <Gentoo64> or if its just terminal terminator tiles the terminal windows
[16:35] <hylian> cherry, yeah, after opening alt f2, or in terminal, gksu is sudo, but for graphical programs. and it's recommended to use gksu instead of sudo for graphics programs.
[16:36] <icar0s> any iptables wizards?
[16:36] <wildc4rd> mmm, can I really not run firefox in separate X sessions on the same box?
[16:37] <sacarlson> icar0s: I've done some iptables
[16:37] <SIFTU> icar0s: lol i wish.. have you looked at fwbuilder?
[16:38] <Gentoo64> icar0s, what are you trying to do?
[16:38] <TheWarden> I've downloaded the Asus N13 linux driver, decompressed it and ran sudo make
[16:38] <oCean> icar0s: there is a specific #Netfilter channel you might want to try?
[16:38] <TheWarden> then sudo make install
[16:39] <TheWarden> then I get the following error message "install: cannot stat `rt2870sta.ko': No such file or directory"
[16:39] <triptec> is it possible to upgrade without changing the kernel.. I'm on a vps with 10.04 and I'd like 11.04??
[16:39] <TheWarden> How can I get this driver to install?
[16:40] <cherry> kk thanks it worked
[16:40] <cherry> :)
[16:40] <hume> where in the compizconfig-settings-manager do I find VSync?
[16:40] <sfsf32> Hello Nerds
[16:42] <keeger> hello
[16:42] <damno> hume: you can also try and see if only enabling Vblanc from ccsm works for you.  System>preferences>ccsm>general> display sett tab> sync to vblanc(look at the end of the window)
[16:42] <keeger> i have an ubuntu based system (Knoppix) and i'm trying to uninstall X11
[16:43] <keeger> i don't see ubuntu-desktop installed.  what's the easiest way to do this?
[16:43] <Pici> keeger: Thats because you're not running Ubuntu. Please ask in #knoppix, not here.
[16:43] <Gentoo64> keeger, maybe use server version
[16:43] <Gentoo64> less of a pita
[16:43] <keeger> it's a prebuilt cd :(
[16:44] <huangkan> hi guys, is there anybody here who is working on some project on launchpad?
[16:44] <Gentoo64> keeger, why do you want x uninstalled
[16:44] <keeger> it's a rescue cd, i just want console only
[16:45] <bullgard6> What DEB program package provides the "English - German Dictionary 1.5 [english-german]"?
[16:45] <Pici> huangkan: If you have specific questions about Launchpad, your best bet it to ask in #launchpad
[16:45] <keeger> and i'm serving it up over NFS, so i'd like to make the image small
[16:45] <damno> hume: you can also try and see if only enabling Vblanc from ccsm works for you.  System>preferences>ccsm>general> display sett tab> sync to vblanc(look at the end of the window)
[16:45] <Gentoo64> keeger, no idea. does it have to be knoppix? id try another distro
[16:46] <dude> i got a grub error installing a module
[16:46] <hume> damno, it's in the OpenGL-settings window, right?
[16:46] <keeger> i have used other ones, but knoppix is the best :(
[16:46] <glebihan> keeger, again you should ask in #knoppix, knoppix is not ubuntu
[16:46] <manno90> hello everybody
[16:46] <keeger> yea i did, they quiet in there
[16:46] <oCean> keeger: please drop the knoppix discussion here
[16:46] <oCean> keeger: that does not make it an #ubuntu issue
[16:46] <keeger> the real question is using apt-get to remove stuff
[16:46] <keeger> but whatevs
[16:46] <Pici> keeger: Try ##linux then
[16:47] <ion_> why I have no access to the terminal with the ubuntu 11.04
[16:48] <Gentoo64> ion_, nothng happens when you click it?
[16:49] <ion_> Gentoo64: no I press alt+F2 to call the terminal but I can't
[16:49] <Calinou> ctrl+alt+t
[16:49] <splitpaw-mobile> Hi
[16:49] <roblun> What can i download to scan an external NTFS drive for viruses?
[16:49] <Gentoo64> roblun, clamav?
[16:49] <Gentoo64> thats a linuxy one
[16:49] <wildc4rd> hplpb, I take it all back, separate X screens is annoying!
[16:50] <hplpb> ion_: try ctrl+alt+f2
[16:50] <roblun> thanks Gentoo64
[16:50] <Xeroz_> Hey, I can't run GUI on this box, and I want to add a firewall policy to ``firestarter'' does anyone know where it keeps the config file for that?
[16:50] <hplpb> wildc4rd: what problems did you have?
[16:51] <Gentoo64> Xeroz_, i think people will tell you firestarter is discontinued
[16:51] <Gentoo64> Xeroz_, why not use ufw?
[16:52] <sacarlson> Xeroz_: is there a real reason you need a firewall?  just close the apps that listen that you don't want
[16:52] <wildc4rd> hplpb, you can't run separate instances of firefox in the separate x servers, and killing the process in one kills it in both
[16:52] <ion_> hplpb: if I do that I gonna get out of the graphic interface ....
[16:52] <Xeroz_> Gentoo64, because it's an old box (Gutsy) and because I'm used to firestarter...
[16:52] <Gentoo64> sacarlson, firewall is good idea..
[16:52] <ion_> hplpb: why you said that ...
[16:52] <sacarlson> Gentoo64: good for what?
[16:52] <Gentoo64> Xeroz_, no idea about firestarter. try loooking in /etc
[16:52] <Xeroz_> sacarlson, it's blocking port 21; I'm trying to unblock it.
[16:52] <hplpb> ion_: ctrl+alt+f7 or f8
[16:53] <glebihan> wildc4rd, you can run separate instances if you use different profiles
[16:53] <sacarlson> Xeroz_: that's why you shouldn't run a firewall in the first place
[16:53] <wildc4rd> ahhh
[16:53] <Xeroz_> Gentoo64, perfect. There's lots of files in /etc/firestarter/ :) Thanks!
[16:53] <Gentoo64> ok
[16:54] <SIFTU> sacarlson: I will tell the auditors that and see if I get away with it
[16:54] <Xeroz_> sacarlson, I don't want EVERYONE to be able to connect to that port :) Only people I allow :)
[16:54] <ion_> hplpb: look normaly I would get in the terminal doing what I said before or through the menu but none of them gives my access to the terminal ...
[16:54] <Gentoo64> just ignore him
[16:54] <bonjoyee> how to make a ipfire like setup in ubuntu?
[16:54] <bonjoyee> firewall + url filtering + webgui ??
[16:55] <sacarlson> SIFTU: auditors? on a server?  if there is a reason for a firewall I can understand it but on a personal desktop there should be no need
[16:55] <Gentoo64> sacarlson, but you have no idea about peoples setups. saying "dont run a fiewall" is useless advice
[16:55] <SIFTU> sacarlson: well he said headless (or GUI less)
[16:56] <sacarlson> xeroz_: ok then that is a usefull purpuse for a firewall if you want to filter other system access but not all
[16:57] <Calinou> passwords/auth would be your friend then
[16:57] <sacarlson> Gentoo64: no I asked (11:52:06 PM) sacarlson: Xeroz_: is there a real reason you need a firewall?
[16:58] <Gentoo64> then said that's why you shouldn't run a firewall in the first place
[16:58] <Gentoo64> lol
[17:01] <nbubuntu> hi anyone can teach me how to remote connection with ubuntu 10.10 ? thanks
[17:01] <rhin0> vinagre nbubuntu
[17:01] <nbubuntu> i need setup guide ,
[17:01] <tim__> I asked this about 20 minutes ago but no answer... My screen resolution suddenly changed to 1024x768 and now everything is too big and spilling off the screen.  "Detect Monitors" does nothing and it won't let me change the screen resolution.  Any suggestions?
[17:01] <rhin0> remote desktop ... just "enable remote desktop" then just type vinagre hostname:0 from the client machine
[17:01] <sacarlson> nbubuntu: try ssh yourotheripaddressbox
[17:01] <rhin0> enabling remote desktop on the server
[17:02] <rhin0> if you want to control the desktop - otherwise yes ssh
[17:02] <nbubuntu> rhin0: in had installed it
[17:02] <rhin0> you don't have to install it
[17:03] <rhin0> tim you need the driver for your graphics card it's a graphics card problem or it could be a unity desktop problem??
[17:03] <rhin0> tim__
[17:03] <nbubuntu> rhin0: sorry I am just using ubuntu 10.10 , not the server edition
[17:03] <eros_> Can you not still connect a free yahoo mail account to Evolution or only the yahoo plus
[17:04] <rhin0> nbubuntu: it doesn't matter I am just referring ot the controlled machine as the server (for  the purpose of remote desktop) and the controlling machine as the client
[17:04] <rhin0> ssh just gives you a shell
[17:04] <sacarlson> nbubuntu: if you see both monitors of both system then quick synergy is cool
[17:05] <rhin0> I use x2x
[17:05] <nbubuntu> rhin0: sorry again , I forgot to mention I am using an androidvnc apps on android phone 2.3 to control ubuntu
[17:05] <hplpb> eros_: I think it's still yahoo plus, but there's a workaround by changing your account to yahoo asia
[17:05] <lada> com
[17:05] <nbubuntu> rhin0: can't seem to connect , ip = localhost and port 5900
[17:06] <f00f> tim__, is the monitor connected directly to card or do you have a switch of some type
[17:06] <rhin0> vinagre hostname:0
[17:07] <tim__> directly to the connector built into the motherboard
[17:07] <sacarlson> nbubuntu: I don't think localhost would be the correct ip to connect to your ubuntu from you phone
[17:07] <rhin0> nbubuntu: system > preferences > remote desktop & tick the box to allow access on the machine you want to control
[17:08] <rhin0> but not sure from a phone what the client would be .... i'll leave it at that ... not sure about vnc either
[17:08] <nbubuntu> sacarlson : I tried with ip <IP_ADDRESS> with no success
[17:08] <rhin0> mine is a simple setup
[17:08] <nbubuntu> rhin0: ticked already before connect
[17:09] <sacarlson> nbubuntu: is that the ip on the ubuntu box when you try ifconfig
[17:09] <f00f> tim__, are you able to use mouse to move your view to the edge of screen?
[17:09] <nbubuntu> sacarlson : yep
[17:10] <tim__> foof-  yes i can
[17:10] <nbubuntu> sacarlson : inet addr:<IP_ADDRESS>
[17:10] <sacarlson> nbubuntu: ok then that's the ip you should use on your phone client
[17:10] <eros_> Can any 1 confirm that they can still access a free yahoo mail account via evolution mail client ? I have a yahoo not the ymail
[17:10] <cr0wd> tim__= obama ??? ;)
[17:10] <davidgalandj> #mqm_viciosa
[17:10] <f00f> he has view portal.. hmm
[17:10] <nbubuntu> sacarlson : click on connect it said connection refuse
[17:11] <sacarlson> eros_: I havn't used email in some time but was it gmail that still had pop3 for free?
[17:11] <nbubuntu> sacarlson : how to check username too ?
[17:11] <sacarlson> nbubuntu: both local net?
[17:11] <tim__> f00f - what do you want me to do with the mouse on the edge of the screen?
[17:11] <f00f> tim__, is it a CRT monitor? if so what size
