[14:53] <lowki> plus when my screen goes off, it all goes kablooey
[14:53] <Milp> thanks mbeierl
[14:53] <lowki> my mouse is 4 times the size of normal
[14:53] <lowki> and the screen is gone
[14:53] <lowki> and ctrl+alt+backspace is disabled
[14:53] <lowki> freggin garbage 9.10
[14:53] <Milp> mbeierl do you happen to know what is all logged into that file? Because mine only contains one line and that even though im logged into sshd right now
[14:53] <bastidrazor> lowki: ctrl sysrq k
[14:54] <bastidrazor> lowki: may be alt instead of ctrl..
[14:54] <mbeierl> Milp: there's usually tons logged there - like cron an so forth - whenever sudo occurs, etc.
[14:54] <lowki> bastidrazor: thanks
[14:54] <Dunkirk> Is there a way to `apt-get upgrade' only the security-related packages?
[14:55] <lowki> Dunkirk: nah don't do it
[14:55] <ZykoticK9> lowki, it is alt+sysrq(usually printscreen)+k to restart X in 9.10 (as bastidrazor eventually suggested)
[14:55] <lowki> Dunkirk: can get the updates
[14:55] <lowki> instead
[14:55] <prince> how to run java applet in ubuntu while i try to run using the command appletviewer filename.java as i do in xp it got error AppletViewer properties file: /home/prince/.hotjava/properties Using defaults.
[14:56] <Dunkirk> lowki, I'm not following you. What do you mean "can get the updates?"
[14:56] <ilw> anybodey please can help me install 3G usb modem?
[14:56] <lowki> Dunkirk: in update manager settings, can set to security updates only
[14:56] <Travis-42> my logitech mouse has a "back" button that is supposed to help me go back a page in a browser. But when I press it in ubuntu 9.10, all browsers go back *2* pages. Any idea how to fix this?
[14:56] <peturrRr> Hello, im running Ubuntu 9.10 on a Laptop. I'd like to install the same kernel as Ubuntu Netbook Remix has.. (cuz it's optimized for laptops)... but i cannot find it in the repos
[14:56] <Dunkirk> lowki, Ahh....
[14:56] <peturrRr> help...
[14:57] <prince> can someone how to run java applet in ubuntu while i try to run using the command appletviewer filename.java as i do in xp it got error AppletViewer properties file: /home/prince/.hotjava/properties Using defaults.
[14:57] <lowki> does linux mint have the same problems as 9.10?
[14:57] <bitplane> Travis-42, i'm also using a logitech mouse and it seems to work okay here
[14:57] <schilli> Dunkirk: I think the upgrade manager has an option that automatically does the security updates.
[14:58] <prince> can help me to solve how to run java applet in ubuntu while i try to run using the command appletviewer filename.java as i do in xp it got error AppletViewer properties file: /home/prince/.hotjava/properties Using defaults.
[14:58] <Travis-42> bitplane: figures :-)
[14:58] <bitplane> prince, we heard you the first time :P
[14:58] <ilw> anybodey please can help me install 3G usb modem?
[14:58] <bitplane> sunds like it's not an error, but a warning
[14:58] <bitplane> sounds*
[14:58] <Dunkirk> schilli, I see that I can turn off the "standard" updates, and just leave the "security" ones, but it begs a couple more questions...
[14:58] <Halvor> bitplane: I'm back. No issues resolved.
[14:58] <bitplane> ouch Halvor :(
[14:58] <lool_> how does internet
[14:59] <Dunkirk> How do I enable/disable classes of updates (security, proposed, etc.) at the command line?
[14:59] <lool_> o hai ilw nyce sein u
[14:59] <lowki> so can i rollback to earlier release?
[14:59] <Teknkik> hi, how i can install ltsp after the installation of the base system?
[14:59] <lowki> cause this 9.10 is broken
[14:59] <bitplane> Halvor, can you see the flash plugin in the Firefox plugins list?
[15:00] <ZykoticK9> lowki, there is no supported method to "downgrade" after installing 9.10 - if you want to go back to 9.04 you need to clean install [don't forget to backup you files!]
[15:00] <Dunkirk> lowki, what's broken about 9.10?
[15:00] <Milp> mbeierl i found out what was causing this, a bug in the syslog conf template caused the logs to be logged in the wrong location ;)
[15:00] <schilli> Dunkirk:  I don't know.  I just threw that out because I thought it might help.
[15:00] <craigbass1976> I'm numbing it.  How do I remount nfs shares that are already in fstab ?
[15:00] <bastidrazor> Dunkirk: you could comment out the repo's you don't want.. that is one way to do what you're wanting
[15:00] <bastidrazor> craigbass1976: sudo mount -a
[15:01] <lowki> Dunkirk: my mouse don't work, the screensaver brakes the x session
[15:01] <lowki> it's pretty horrible
[15:01] <Dunkirk> bastidrazor, Oh, in /etc/apt/sources.list. I see.
[15:01] <craigbass1976> bastidrazor, thanks
[15:01] <Milp> mbeierl now finally ossec also logs the sshd problems :D yay
[15:01] <Dunkirk> lowki, Ouch.
[15:01] <bastidrazor> Dunkirk: be sure to do an sudo apt-get update after editing sources.list
[15:01] <Dunkirk> bastidrazor, Roger.
[15:02] <prince> how i run an applet then
[15:02] <Halvor> bitplane: No, it isn't in the list
[15:02] <lool_> how does type?
[15:03] <Zim_> hello
[15:03] <prince> how i run applet programs in ubuntu
[15:04] <Dunkirk> lowki: What sort of video card do you have?
[15:04] <lool_> how i run app programs in ubuntu
[15:04] <lowki> intel
[15:04] <lowki> i have a inspiron 600m
[15:05] <Zim_> lool: how do you mean? in the terminal or adding new ones?
[15:05] <Dunkirk> lowki, Have you created an /etc/X11/xorg.conf, or are you just letting X configure itself?
[15:05] <prince> my program compile sucess but while i run using appletviewer filename.java its give me warning
[15:05] <lowki> I tried making some modifications to get the mouse workign
[15:05] <lowki> but it didn't work
[15:05] <Xepera> I'm having a problem with Skype that I'm hoping someone can help with.  I'm on Ubuntu Karmic, and running Skype <IP_ADDRESS>, since I couldn't get the latest version to work with my USB microphone.  If I have Skype running, no other programs will produce sound (i.e. Amarok, vlc, flash in the browser, etc.).  If any of those programs are active when I start skype, skype will fail to produce sound & won't work properly.  Is there a way I can allo
[15:05] <Xepera> w side-by-side usage of skype, as all my other programs seem to get along just fine when it comes to sharing audio...
[15:06] <Dunkirk> lowki, I would try an `Xorg -configure' and let X tell you what it thinks it sees.
[15:06] <karleeto> is there like a big font pack i can install?? or do most people just copy the windows/fonts directory into their ubuntu installation?
[15:06] <karleeto> i'm wanting to do some graphics with gimp, but there aren't many fonts installed on the basic system
[15:07] <prince> my program compile sucess but while i run using appletviewer filename.java its give me warning how i get rid off this
[15:07] <Xepera> karleeto: most people copy the windows fonts.  There are many font packs available on torrent sites, but keep in mind that some of them are not freeware
[15:07] <Dunkirk> lowki, Also, pay attention to the mouse device. You might be needing to use the event device (/dev/event/mice), rather than psaux.
[15:07] <lowki> Dunkirk: says X server already active
[15:07] <brummbaer> karleeto: sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts
[15:07] <brummbaer> it'll get the usual MS fonts installed.
[15:08] <Dunkirk> lowki, Yeah, you'll have to do it at the command line.  It would help to have a nother computer nearby for Googling while you tweak your config...
[15:09] <Xepera> karleeto: cool, enjoy -- there's a lot of great ones out there :P
[15:09] <Xepera> "font pack"
[15:09] <Halvor> How can I install the Adobe flash plugin for Mozilla in 8.0.4 when it doesn't install when I follow the instructions?
[15:09] <Dunkirk> lowki, YOu can test your modifications without starting gdm again by just doing `startx'.
[15:09] <Halvor> Mozilla = Firefox
[15:09] <Xepera> Halvor: You can go into Synaptic and install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:09] <lowki> Dunkirk: nope still dont'work
[15:10] <lowki> it was working fine in 9.04
[15:10] <Halvor> Xepera: What/where is synaptic?
[15:10] <corecode> oh wow, ext4 is so slow
[15:10] <Xepera> Halvor: are you on Kubuntu or Ubuntu?
[15:10] <bitplane> Halvor, it's the advanced package manager found in the system menu
[15:10] <Halvor> Ubuntu
[15:10] <chrisu71> exit
[15:10] <Xepera> Halvor: press ALT+F2 & type "synaptic" (without quotes) and press enter
[15:10] <brummbaer> yeah, karleeto, you should also look up 'free ttf fonts' and 'install ttf ubuntu', if you're using fonts for graphics, there are some spiff free graphics sites out there. :)
[15:11] <Halvor> Xepera: Found it in the systems menu
[15:11] <bitplane> GNOME Do is just awesome, it should come with Ubuntu by default
[15:11] <dt3k> What's the easiest way to join a domain?
[15:11] <mdk_> Can anyone help me? i need to manually set my monitor up in xorg.conf as it defaults too 640x480 and wont go any higher i am just stuck for what to do
[15:11] <Xepera> Halvor: that is the best way to install software on your system... always check that first
[15:12] <Halvor> Xepera: OK!
[15:12] <bitplane> mdk_ what graphics driver are you using?
[15:12] <karleeto> brummbaer: i'm about to check my torrent site for a font pack, i just installed msttcorefonts too
[15:12] <dt3k> If u like gnome do u should check out docky
[15:12] <karleeto> brummbaer: so where do i stick the ttf fonts once i've download a font pack?
[15:12] <bitplane> I mean, what card.. I'm just guessing that it's the problem anyway
[15:12] <bitplane> dt3k, is docky the Apple wannabe thing?
[15:13] <karleeto> brummbaer: i've forgotten where the font dir is, and isnt there some command i run to update the font cache after i copy them?
[15:13] <dt3k> Kind of
[15:13] <ner0x> http://paste.ubuntu.com/351287/
[15:13] <bitplane> the OSX dock
[15:13] <karleeto> brummbaer: oh, thats why u were telling me to google "install ttf ububtu
[15:13] <Pici> !fonts | karleeto
[15:13] <ner0x> Paste of the Pg error I'm getting after the newest update.
[15:13] <hiatus> im using ubuntu minimal. What does preload actually do and what happened to readahead?
[15:13] <Halvor> Xepera: Should I type 'flashplugin-nonfree' somewhere in Synaptic?
[15:14] <thiebaude> Halvor, adobe
[15:14] <dt3k> No one know how I can join an active directory domain?
[15:14] <mdk_> i installed through envy, and throught the restricted and via tty1 with the downloaded drivers
[15:15] <Halvor> Xepera: 'flashplugin-nonfree' has a green checkbox. I guess that means it is somehow in the system already?
[15:16] <lowki> so there is no rollback feature?
[15:16] <bitplane> dt3k: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ActiveDirectoryWinbindHowto
[15:16] <lowki> i just have to reinstall?
[15:16] <hiatus> why not install ubuntu restricted extras like everyone else?
[15:16] <kinja-sheep> hiatus: The way I see it... preload caches all running applications so it knows ten popular applications and is "ready" to load anytime.  And readahead rearrange the boot files to shave a blink.
[15:16] <Dunkirk> lowki, that's correct.
[15:16] <Pici> !who
[15:16] <thiebaude> hiatus, i was thinking that
[15:16] <lowki> yet again
[15:16] <mdk_> i installed through envy, and throught the restricted and via tty1 with the downloaded drivers - bitplane
[15:17] <lowki> i like have to reinstall once a month nowadays
[15:17] <lowki> oi
[15:17] <hiatus> so basically its precaching?
[15:17] <exodus_ms> grrr, another 64bit flash problem, anyone care to help? Flash works but I need to tab+enter to select/play flash content (ubuntu karmic)
[15:17] <Dunkirk> lowki, I've installed an operating system on my two main workstations a combined 6 times in the past 3 weeks.
[15:17] <kinja-sheep> hiatus: preload monitors applications that users run, and by analyzing this data, predicts what applications users might run, and fetches those binaries and their dependencies into memory for faster startup times.
[15:18] <eurythmia_> Hey, I locked my computer for a moment, walked away, came back aand unlocked it, and now my mouse is not moving ... I've tried more than one device, so I'm fairly certain that it's a software issue. How would I go about getting my mouse to work again, short of restarting, or restarting X?
[15:18] <lowki> Dunkirk: wow,
[15:18] <Dunkirk> I can't settle on whether to run Ubuntu or my longtime friend Gentoo.
[15:18] <bitplane> exodus_ms, I have a similar problem. works in Google Chrome but not Firefox
[15:18] <biznock09> can anyone give me a hand on reseting my password ubuntu 8.04
[15:18] <kinja-sheep> hiatus: By loading them the memory already.
[15:18] <lowki> all those backups
[15:18] <hiatus> meh, i'll install it
[15:18] <Halvor> Xepera / bitplane / thiebaude : Adobe flashplayer appears to be installed, but the Facebook app which requires it says it isn't.
[15:18] <Dunkirk> lowki, I keep all data on servers, so I can wipe any time.
[15:18] <exodus_ms> bitplane, ya, but I want to use FF :)
[15:18] <kinja-sheep> s/them/them in
[15:18] <exodus_ms> bitplane, which version of flash are you using?
[15:19] <lowki> Dunkirk: i keep my backups on my server
[15:19] <eurythmia_> Dunkirk, gentoo *is* good ... if you're worried about code optimized for your processor, go with gentoo, but ubuntu is really slick and has a lot of support options.
[15:19] <ner0x> Anyone here using Pg and know what this *new* error is?
[15:19] <brummbaer> karleeto: i would never tell you to google something, you should 'yahoo' it.
[15:19] <brummbaer> :)
[15:19] <bitplane> Halvor, open a console and type "cd /usr/ && find | grep flashplayer.so"
[15:19]  * thiebaude but dont bing it,lol
[15:20] <Dunkirk> eurythmia_, I tried using the Phoronix test suite over the weekend, I got NO DIFFERENCE between Ubuntu amd64 and my "custom" Gentoo setup. On the exact same machine, mind you.
[15:20] <eurythmia_> bitplane, woah ... that's a time consuming command.
[15:20] <dt3k> Good lord I have to do all that just to get on a domain? Sheesh
[15:20] <Dunkirk> eurythmia_, So a lot of my thinking about why I should stick with Gentoo just flew out the window.
[15:20] <bitplane> eurythmia yeah I know, I'm lazy so the computer can work more
[15:20] <eurythmia_> Dunkirk, did you recompile everything on gentoo with -O3 ? ;)
[15:20] <eurythmia_> bitplane, locate flashplayer.so  :P
[15:20] <Pici> bitplane: Why not use find properly by doing: find /usr/ -name "flashplayer.so"
[15:20] <marcel__> Hi !
[15:20] <Xepera> Halvor: did you restart your browser?
[15:21] <biznock09> can anyone help change a user password
[15:21] <Dunkirk> eurythmia_, No, I always use "safe" CFLAGS, with -02. So, yeah, I could probably squeeze something, but I haven't seen any gain yet.
[15:21] <eurythmia_> with locate, you have to run updatedb once in a while, but you can get chron to do that for you.
[15:21] <Pici> biznock09: Provide some more information and we might be able to? What user? What have you tried?
[15:21] <Halvor> Xepera: I did
[15:21] <Halvor> bitplane: I get to filepaths
[15:21] <Dunkirk> eurythmia_, I suppose you're going to tell me that Ubuntu already uses -O2, and I should have been at -O3 on Gentoo to see any gains...
[15:21] <eurythmia_> Dunkirk, then my suggestion is to go with ubuntu, it's a lot easier to administer, it's pretty, and there is lots of documentation and how tos.
[15:21] <patdk-wk> heh, I hate locate/updatedb :) just a waste of cpu/hd cycles to me
[15:22] <eurythmia_> Dunkirk, I don't know that for sure, but I suspect so.
[15:22] <eurythmia_> patdk-wk, get cron to run it while you sleep :P
[15:22] <biznock09> Pici: its just my user password
[15:22] <eurythmia_> patdk-wk, it sure saves time if you need to find things a lot.
[15:22] <Pici> biznock09: And you forgot it?
[15:22] <patdk-wk> eurythmia_, oh ya, when it takes locate 8hours to run
[15:22] <biznock09> Pici: no i have it i want to change it
[15:22] <patdk-wk> and if it's a vm system that has 10+ of them running :(
[15:22] <bitplane> Halvor, are they in /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins and /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ ?
[15:22] <Pici> biznock09: on a terminal type: passwd
[15:22] <Xepera> Halvor: Are you on an i686 (32-bit) or AMD64 (64-bit) system?
[15:22] <patdk-wk> I can't remember ever using locate
[15:22] <eurythmia_> patdk-wk, it also depends how much stuff you have on your computer to catalog, I guess :P
[15:23] <Dunkirk> Check it out: http://google.com/trends?q=fedora|redhat%2Cgentoo%2Copensuse|suse%2Cubuntu|debian%2Cfreebsd|openbsd|netbsd
[15:23] <prince> finally i got the ans
[15:23] <Pici> !ot | Dunkirk
[15:23] <Dunkirk> I'm thinking Ubuntu will BE Linux in a couple more years...
[15:23] <Halvor> Xepera: Neither
[15:23] <thiebaude> pc-bsd
[15:23] <patdk-wk> Dunkirk, extreemly unlikely
[15:23] <biznock09> Pici: thanks for your patience
[15:23] <Halvor> bitplane: No, cd /usr/ && find | grep flashplayer.so and cd /usr/ && find | grep flashplayer.so
[15:23] <Xepera> Halvor: Okay, SPARC?  What kind of system are you using?
[15:23] <eurythmia_> thiebaude, what about it?
[15:23] <thiebaude> its great
[15:24] <thiebaude> offtopic, sorry
[15:24] <Halvor> Xepera: I think it's a P4 pr P5
[15:24] <eurythmia_> thiebaude, I run freeBSD on one of my lappys :{D
[15:24] <lowki> hey what's the minimum size the root partition can be?
[15:24] <thiebaude> cool
[15:24] <Halvor> Xepera: I'd have to check
[15:24] <Xepera> Halvor: That's "i686"
[15:24] <patdk-wk> lowki, 1meg?
[15:24] <thiebaude> graphical installer is the only difference
[15:24] <eurythmia_> looks like I have to restart X to get my mouse working again.Be back soon.
[15:24] <hiatus> ubuntu is basically doing what fedora was supposed to do
[15:25] <patdk-wk> lowki, can be much smaller if your not using ext2/3/4
[15:25] <Pici> This isn't a discussion channel, if you're not here to answer or ask support questions, then you can chat in #ubuntu-offtopic.  Thanks!
[15:25] <Doonz> hey guys im having trouble getting a crontab job to run. i can run the script by just typing the script in terminal as the user. but when i wait for contrab to run it it never runs
[15:26] <Halvor> bitplane: I'll make a second attempt. The files are ./lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so and ./lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so
[15:26] <Pici> Doonz: What does the entry in your crontab look like?
[15:26] <kinja-sheep> Doonz: Full path to the script.
[15:26] <patdk-wk> doonz, probably cause your missing paths to the programs in your cron script
[15:26] <Dunkirk> Doonz, is your cron daemon running?
[15:26] <Doonz> * * * * * /home/tvshows/.runme
[15:26] <Doonz> Dunkirk:  yes
[15:26] <bitplane> Halvor, looks like it's not in the firefox plugins directory. strange
[15:26] <Doonz> tvshows@fast:~$ ps ax | grep 'cron' 908 ?        Ss     0:00 cron
[15:27] <deviad> Hey guys, is there any how to that helps to configure properly pulseaudio?
[15:27] <deviad> I have been away from Linux for 2 - 3 years and I found this new stuff. I'm getting problems with it on my mac
[15:27] <occy> When I type:  sudo su -      It gives me "Error"  that's it nothing else.  any ideas?
[15:27] <Halvor> bitplane: I hope that can be workd around somehow
[15:27] <deviad> I can hear the sound but when I record my voice and I play the recording it sounds choppy...
[15:28] <jpds> occy: Use: sudo -i
[15:28] <deviad> scratchy...
[15:28] <deviad> stuttering I guess is the right word...
[15:28] <kinja-sheep> deviad: How do you know your voice does not sound choppy? o.O
[15:28] <bitplane> Halvor, you shouldn't have to work around it, but I guess you could
[15:28] <occy> jpds: has  su - been deprecated?
[15:28] <Halvor> bitplane: Just direct me to the smoothest solution and I'll be most happy :-)
[15:28] <deviad> kinja-sheep, when I play the recording there's some sort of stuttering...
[15:28] <jpds> occy: No, you should have never used it.
[15:29] <lowki> is there a console app, that opens a file based on file type?
[15:29] <jpds> occy: Well, sudo -i does what it does.
[15:29] <kinja-sheep> deviad: You could try padevchooser
[15:29] <occy> jpds: odd I've been doing that since...  96?
[15:29] <lowki> like double clicking in the browser?
[15:29] <Guest3724> #linuasc
[15:29] <jpds> occy: Ubuntu has always used sudo?
[15:29] <lowki> jpds: yes
[15:29] <Doonz> patdk-wk: the path is correct
[15:29] <plustax> okay I have my final fantasy playstation disc here, and I have pcsx. How to use it? Evertime I put it in pcsx tells me its not a valid playstation disc!
[15:29] <occy> jpds:  well  I've always used the    su -    when becoming root.
[15:30] <Halvor> I'm using the web interface for IRC. Is there some way I can not see all the joins and quits in the channel?
[15:30] <occy> hence:  sudo su -      would allow me to become root.  Anyhoo the odd thing is... why does it give me a generic "Error"  heh
[15:30] <bitplane> Halvor, remove the package from apt and install it manually from Adobe's website
[15:30] <kinja-sheep> Halvor: Turn off the join/quit feature in your Web Interface (if it exists).

[15:30] <macman_> mirc on linux rocks :P
[15:31] <hiatus> mirc on linux?
[15:31] <kinja-sheep> mirc on linux? :(
[15:31] <Halvor> bitplane: What's 'apt'?
[15:31] <Guest3724> yes what apt
[15:31] <bitplane> Halvor, the package manager.. wherever you installed it from
[15:31] <Guest3724> ?????
[15:32] <hiatus> macman: use xchat or at least pidgin. if your hardcore, use irssi
[15:32] <bitplane> aptitude is the command line linux package manager... you use "apt-get" to install stuff. all those GUI tools use that in the background I think
[15:32] <oph3lia> irssi is nice
[15:32] <Halvor> bitplane: I installed it from Firefox, but the problem is that it isn't recognized in Firefox
[15:32] <oph3lia> simple and without the fancy eyesores :)
[15:32] <bitplane> Halvor, just remove it from the applications menu
[15:32] <bitplane> and install from the website instead

[15:33] <Doonz> hey guys im having trouble getting a crontab job to run. i can run the script by just typing the script in terminal as the user. but when i wait for contrab to run it it never runs
[15:33] <LucidPerry> :P
[15:33] <Halvor> bitplane: I don't see flashplayer in the applications menu. Would a plugin even appear there?
[15:34] <Guest3724> thank you
[15:34] <Halvor> bitplane: I can try and remove it it Synaptic
[15:34] <bitplane> Halvor, the package installer/remover program, search in there
[15:35] <bitplane> or synaptic if it's not there (it's always best to avoid that if possible)
[15:35] <mun_> hi
[15:35] <mun_> does anyone know what ng means in names like aircrack-ng, initng?
[15:35] <urthmover> ng = no good?
[15:35] <erUSUL> mun_: usually new generation
[15:36] <mun_> i see.
[15:36] <mun_> thanks
[15:36] <erUSUL> mun_: as in is newer rewriten better
[15:36] <Halvor> bitplane: I just got the advise that synaptic was the preferrable tool for this type of work. Are you saying it should rather be avoided?
[15:36] <mun_> erUSUL, how is it conventionally pronounced? aircrack-'N''G' spelt out?
[15:37] <DexterF> in /etc/default/grub is not one sinlge entry mentioned. where are my debian, ubuntu, windows lines?
[15:37] <bitplane> Halvor, it's a bit more in-depth and you can work around things. I prefer to avoid it myself, but I'm no expert
[15:37] <erUSUL> mun_: dunno; sorry english is not even my native language
[15:37] <mun_> ah ok thanks
[15:38] <xtjacob1> when I click print it says printing, then print job completed, but the printer does nothing. Anyone know how to fix this
[15:38] <leissi> sup
[15:38] <leissi> back on ubuntu again :P
[15:38] <Halvor> bitplane: Well, I don't see that 'aptitude' utility which you mentioned.
[15:39] <oph3lia> Halvor, you can use aptitude instead of apt-get
[15:39] <oph3lia> if you so prefer
[15:39] <luist> hm... is it possible to install ubuntu in an external HD and boot from it?
[15:39] <Halvor> oph3lia: Now I have no idea what you are referring to. I'm not sure I have any of thos programs.
[15:40] <bitplane> Halvor, just use synaptic package manager. aptitude is the command line version
[15:40] <Halvor> bitplane: OK. Should I do 'Removal' or 'Complete removal'?
[15:41] <bitplane> I'm not sure of the difference, but try removal for starters
[15:41] <jakemills> When I installed the proprietary drivers for my modem on this laptop (never use it but just did it for completeness) the sound stopped working. Is this a known issue with modem drivers in ubuntu?

[15:45] <Doonz> hey guys im having trouble getting a crontab job to run. i can run the script by just typing the script in terminal as the user. but when i wait for contrab to run it it never runs

[15:53] <Halvor> bitplane: Is it ok to open the installation file with GDebi Package Installer?
[15:53] <bitplane> yep that's what it defaults to isn't it?
[15:53] <Halvor> bitplane: It is
[15:54] <kresselack> hi
[15:54] <kresselack> can some1 help me
[15:54] <malik_> Dunkirk:  I need a software like Device Manager in windows.
[15:54] <kresselack> i have connection problem in ubuntu 9.10
[15:55] <Halvor> bitplane: How do I know when the installation is done?
[15:55] <kresselack> i search for forums about ipsv6
[15:55] <kresselack> i disable it from mozilla
[15:55] <kresselack> i can get internet from mozilla bur
[15:55] <bitplane> Halvor, not sure, it's been ages since I did this
[15:55] <kresselack> but* i cannot update my ubuntu
[15:55] <Dunkirk> malik_, You're out of luck. There's no equivalent in Linux.
[15:56] <bitplane> it was in my old Ubuntu install
[15:56] <oCean_> kresselack: try to describe your issue and steps taken in one single line. That'll make it easier for others to follow
[15:56] <Halvor> bitplane: OK, 'cause now I seem to be back where I was previously. Firefox still doesn't tecognize that I have installed Flash
[15:56] <Dunkirk> malik_, I'm guessing you want to configure some hardware. What's giving you a problem?
[15:56] <oCean_> kresselack: like "i did this ..." and then got the error message "..."
[15:56] <deviad> See you later1
[15:57] <deviad> See you later!
[15:57] <malik_> I have a USB Sound Card, which works in windows but does not work in ubuntu.
[15:57] <diddy> How do I find out what the currect block size for my file system is again?
[15:57] <diddy> I need to set quotas but blocks don't really give me a good idea how much is being used.
[15:58] <Halvor> bitplane: Now it resides in ./lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so only.
[15:59] <user94837> Could someone help me figure out the syntax for SSH port forwarding? Incoming, outgoing, local, remote is all too confusing for me.
[15:59] <bitplane> Halvor, try copying it to /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins
[15:59] <kresselack> hi i have problem about internet connection in ubuntu 9.10, i disabled ipsv6 in mozilla and i can get internet, but ubuntu doesnt make any updates. when i try to make update from manager, its try to get updates but gets error: failed to fletch http: ..... how can i update my ubuntu?
[15:59] <bitplane> Halvor, also to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ too
[15:59] <Halvor> bitplane: Copy only that one file?
[15:59] <user94837> My remote computer has a constant IP address and my local computer has an IP address that changes often.
[15:59] <bitplane> Halvor, yes
[15:59] <Halvor> bitplane: ok
[16:00] <Dunkirk> user94837, `ssh -L<port1>:<host>:<port2>' forwards port <port1> on your LOCAL machine to port <port2> on <host> on the other side of the SSH connection.
[16:00] <Homely_Girl> Greetings oh holders of Linux brains!

[16:00] <josvuk> Anywhere a actual tutorial how to install ibm java jre ppc in ubuntu karmic?
[16:00] <guntbert> kresselack: do you use a http proxy with firefox?
[16:00] <Homely_Girl> Anyone clued up on Huawei mobile b/band dongles 'n possible conflicts with Karmic??
[16:00] <Dunkirk> user94837, `ssh -L6668:localhost:6668'
[16:01] <Halvor> bitplane: cp: cannot create regular file `/usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins/libflashplayer.so': Permission denied
[16:01] <user94837> Dunkirk, I run that from the remote computer, right?
[16:01] <kresselack> guntbert: no i just disabled ipsv6 from about:config bar
[16:01] <Dunkirk> user94837, From what you said, you'd need to run that command from your client computer.
[16:01] <oCean_> diddy: sudo tune2fs -l <device> | grep -i block
[16:01] <Gintulis> how to manuol install Disk Usage Analyzer?
[16:01] <Dunkirk> gotta run...
[16:01] <kresselack> guntbert: i can ping any server from network tools. but i cannot download updates
[16:01] <Halvor> bitplane: Permission denied also for the second destination.
[16:02] <user94837> Thanks
[16:02] <user94837> I'll try it.
[16:02] <guntbert> kresselack: please !pastebin the output of sudo aptitude update
[16:02] <Halvor> bitplane: I guess I can attempt to fiddle with the file and directory permissions...
[16:03] <guntbert> !pastebin | kresselack
[16:03] <Doonz> hey guys im having trouble getting a crontab job to run. i can run the script by just typing the script in terminal as the user. but when i wait for contrab to run it it never runs
[16:04] <tiger1> i want to hide file it's path is "/media/sda2/12-1.mht" using terminal command.
[16:05] <kresselack> guntbert: it cannot connect any url from terminal also
[16:05] <bitplane> Doonz, I had a similar issue but it went away when I rebooted my server. I guess restarting the cron daemon must have fixed it
[16:06] <oCean_> Doonz: it might be because your cron daemon is not running, check that first. It also can be (for example) that the script calls a command that is not in the PATH.
[16:06] <bitplane> I messed around with rsyslogd for ages too, trying to get it to log cron activity
[16:06] <mediaprodigy_awy> Is anyone using a Wireless N Adapter (USB) with Ubuntu? If so which one?
[16:06] <townkat> how do i make my rt2500usb based wireles dongle support master mode ?
[16:07] <kresselack> mediaprodigy_awy: i used athereos chipsetted one with madwifi drivers,
[16:07] <townkat> this is rt2500 based
[16:07] <townkat> i read about atheros ones
[16:07] <guntbert> kresselack: I see ... you say ping works fine, for names too?
[16:07] <oCean_> Doonz: to capture STDERR from script scheduled in cron, add "2 > /tmp/cron.err" to the line in the crontab, or even "> /tmp/cron.log 2>&1", which will send all output (ERR as well as OUT) to that logfile. That way you could debug your issue
[16:08] <diddy> oCean_, thx I am getting 4096, so one block is 4096 bytes?
[16:08] <Halvor> bitplane: In /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ I already have flashplugin-alternative.so. Is that a file I could use instead?
[16:08] <oCean_> diddy: indeed
[16:08] <townkat> is anyone using rt2x00 module in master mode pls ?
[16:09] <diddy> oCean_, thx. How can I use the bash shell as a calculator again? There was this one command but I forget.
[16:09] <ActionParsnip28> yo yo yo
[16:09] <diddy> eval?
[16:09] <diddy> no
[16:09] <oCean_> diddy: echo $((2*3))

[16:12] <malik_> hi , i have download and installed a desired set of ubuntu packages on my pc with synaptec I can find these packages in /var/ , how can i make packages CD so that the next time if i need it i may not have to download them again and get off the CD?
[16:12] <Halvor> What is the Linux command for seeing permissions of a directory?
[16:12] <ActionParsnip28> mbeierl: tried another player?
[16:12] <el_trozeador> >	www.pedropastor.net
[16:12] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip28: mplayer doesn't work either.  It cannot find the main movie

[16:12] <selfimage> ls -la
[16:13] <ActionParsnip28> halvor: chmod
[16:13] <malachai> ActionParsnip28: my ubuntu has internet connection problem. i disabled ipsv6 from firefox then i can get websites, but when ubuntu try to make update its like no internet connection

[16:13] <GrimmVarg> hey guys, im running ubuntu on  aspire one 10" and needed the poulsobo graphic driver to get hardware acceleration, ive confirmed that its runnng and working but i cant enable desktop effekts any clues?
[16:13] <malik_> thanyou

[16:13] <yayness> i would like to be able to restrict internet access by ip, i have dhcp server setup
[16:13] <selfimage> halvor: chmod lets you change the permissions of a directory or file
[16:13] <ActionParsnip28> malachai: can you ping sites by name?
[16:13] <guntbert> malachai: you said ping works - so ping netzmafia.de gives "good" results ?
[16:14] <yayness> restrict being limit download/upload rates
[16:14] <ActionParsnip28> malachai: can you also ping <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[16:14] <Doonz> thanx guys a simple reboot fixed the issue
[16:14] <GrimmVarg> hey guys, im running ubuntu on  aspire one 10" and needed the poulsobo graphic driver to get hardware acceleration, ive confirmed that its runnng and working but i cant enable desktop effekts any clues?
[16:14] <ActionParsnip28> yayness: look into trickle
[16:14] <Halvor> selfimage: Does drwxr-xr-x mean I cannot copy a file into this dir?
[16:14] <yayness> !info trickle
[16:14] <yayness> ActionParsnip28, thanks
[16:15] <stew> Halvor: that means the owner of the directory can, but nobody else can
[16:15] <Halvor> stew: I think I'm the owner
[16:15] <ActionParsnip28> grimmvarg: run: lspci: grep -i vga   websearch the output for guides

[16:16] <h00k> I currently have Karmic 32bit with the encrypted home directory set from the installer, I'd like to install the 64bit version instead, how is this going to work with my home directory?
[16:16] <Halvor> stew: How do I find out if I'm the owner?
[16:16] <oCean_> Halvor: run "id" then "ls -ald /path/to/directory". First will show your user/goup, 2nd shows ownership of directory
[16:16] <selfimage> Halvor: who is the owner when you do ls -la
[16:17] <Halvor> selfimage: root
[16:17] <Elyria_DeHoffran> Youtube has no sound, any ideas?
[16:17] <Halvor> selfimage: But there are no other users tham me. I installed ubuntu here
[16:17] <selfimage> then you need to be root in order to copy to that dir
[16:17] <guntbert> !sudo | Halvor
[16:18] <selfimage> or do a sudo cp file to dir
[16:18] <Halvor> OK.
[16:18] <ActionParsnip28> elyria_dehoffman: remove all flash plugins including gnash and swfdec, then reinstall the single plugin: flashplugin-installer
[16:18] <xcv> good morning! karmic: network [manager] icon missing from panel on a newly added regular user (non-admin) account -- my question: *should* the network icon be present in the panel for a newly added regular user?
[16:18] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ActionParsnip28,   Thanks.
[16:18] <guntbert> Halvor: about what directory are we talking?
[16:18] <ActionParsnip28> xvx: alt+f2  run  nm-applet
[16:19] <Halvor> guntbert: :/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins$
[16:19] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ActionParsnip28,   Where do I find the plugins?
[16:19] <ActionParsnip28> elyria-dehoffran: in synaptic, seach for all 3 strings to remove them all
[16:20] <madura> i get filcker when i run opengl apps with compiz, i have an ATI card is this problem fixeed now?
[16:20] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ActionParsnip28,  Ok.
[16:20] <guntbert> Halvor: why do you want to copy something to that location? I never needed that
[16:20] <soreau> madura: What model card?
[16:20] <joaopinto> madura, no it's not fixed
[16:20] <madura> soreau, HD 2600 Pro
[16:20] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip28: xine, totem - when totem works - both give same problem: 10 minutes (or so?) at start of movie, followed by 10 minutes from middle, then next 10 minutes from start, 10 minutes from middle, and so on...
[16:21] <soreau> madura: If you are using karmic and the open source drivers via the xorg-edgers repo, booting with radeon.modeset=1 will enable kms and fix the issue
[16:21] <madura> joaopinto, k so there's no thing to do other than turn compiz off right?
[16:21] <h00k> I currently have Karmic 32bit with the encrypted home directory set from the installer, I'd like to install the 64bit version instead, how is this going to work with my home directory?
[16:21] <Halvor> guntbert: It was a suggestion from bitplane that I copy ./lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so there
[16:21] <joaopinto> soreau, he is refering to opengl 3d apps, fglrx
[16:21] <Halvor> guntbert: I'm trying to make flashplayer work in Firefox
[16:21] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ActionParsnip28,  The only one showing as installed is adobe-flashplugin. Remove it, or can that one stay?
[16:22] <soreau> madura: You dont have to turn off compiz if you use the open source radeon driver and kms
[16:22] <soreau> joaopinto: I know and it can be fixed using the open source driver
[16:22] <joaopinto> soreau, the opensource driver does not provide 3d support
[16:22] <catmando> is there really no way to pass a script to ftp?
[16:22] <ActionParsnip28> elyria_dehoffran: remove that. you want flashplugin-nonfree
[16:22] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ActionParsnip28,   I'm running 9.04, if it makes a dofference.
[16:22] <soreau> joaopinto: Yes it does
[16:22] <joaopinto> soreau, not for my model
[16:22] <madura> soreau, i have intrepid ATM is open source drivers stable enough? where can i get them?
[16:22] <guntbert> Halvor: well did you see !flash ?
[16:23] <ActionParsnip28> elyria_dehoffran: none at all
[16:23] <Halvor> guntbert: Hwere?
[16:23] <catmando> not a shell script, but rather a ftp command script. i seem to remember that you could do this with -s:
[16:23] <madura> soreau, what;s KMS?
[16:23] <guntbert> !flash | Halvor
[16:23] <diddy> How would I put quotacheck -acug in /etc/cron.daily ?
[16:24] <soreau> madura: joaopinto: You can get the open source drivers for newer model ati cards with 3D support from the xorg-edgers repo. In order for them to work, fglrx must be completely removed from the system
[16:24] <malik_> Any light weight Software to Watch TV on ubuntu  with A TV Tuner Carc
[16:24] <ActionParsnip28> catmando: i believe ftp is scriptable. i'd check out: man ftp
[16:24] <Diverdude> I have ubuntu 9.10 on a Lenovo T61p. There seems to be a problem with the microphone. I try to go to the sound-recorder application, and record my voice....but only static is played when i try to playback my recorded voice. What might be the problem?
[16:24] <soreau> madura: KMS = Kernel Modesetting
[16:24] <Halvor> Wow... my fuse is red
[16:24] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ActionParsnip28,  COnsidering the differences in 9.04 and 9.10, figgered I would define, just in case. =)
[16:24] <Halvor> guntbert: What's that command doing?
[16:24] <ActionParsnip28> tv | malik_
[16:24] <ActionParsnip28> !tv
[16:25] <joaopinto> soreau, will test it, thanks
[16:25] <Homely_Girl> Anyone experienced with mobile b/band dongles 'n karmic?
[16:25] <malik_> i tried tvtime and kaffeine but the source selection is disabled i dont see my TV Tuner Card there in the list
[16:25] <xcv> ActionParsnip28: was your 'xvx' post intended for me? if so, thanks, but it didn't answer my question (but testing it...)
[16:25] <catmando> ActionParsnip28, that's what I looked at - the only thing i can see is the macro definition
[16:25] <hamz1aatova1> can i subscribe my little sansa to podcasts???
[16:25] <h00k> I currently have Karmic 32bit with the encrypted home directory set from the installer, I'd like to install the 64bit version instead, how is this going to work with my home directory?
[16:25] <ActionParsnip28> elyria_dehoffran: no harm in checking :)
[16:25] <guntbert> Halvor: i sent you (via ubottu) some info for installing flash especially https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - please look at that website
[16:25] <madura> soreau, i read the ubuntu docs on open drivers they say that RV6xx don't get full 3D acceleration
[16:26] <oCean_> xcv: you talking about a 2nd user on the same system you are logged in?
[16:26] <Halvor> guntbert: Yup, I'm there now
[16:26] <Preetam> after installing ubuntu 9.10 by wireless network shows disabled in the system tray
[16:26] <Preetam> how  to enable it
[16:26] <Diverdude> I have ubuntu 9.10 on a Lenovo T61p. There seems to be a problem with the microphone. I try to go to the sound-recorder application, and record my voice....but only static is played when i try to playback my recorded voice. What might be the problem?
[16:26] <soreau> madura: It gets acceleration to run compiz and they are working on glsl support. The open drivers are indeed in an experimental phase but they still provide 3D
[16:27] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ActionParsnip28,   No good things yet...WOuld fl;ashplugin-nonfree-extrasound be useful?
[16:27] <ActionParsnip28> preetam: is there a killswitch to enable it?
[16:27] <xcv> oCean_: correct, 2nd user is regular (non-admin) user
[16:27] <mbeierl> Anyone else know how to play a DVD in Karmic?
[16:27] <soreau> ! dvd | mbeierl
[16:27] <Halvor> Is 8.04 called Hardy Heron?
[16:27] <oCean_> xcv: I think if a 2nd user tries to start nm-applet, it would fail with msg like "already in use". You could try the "nm-applet" command in a shell (as the 2nd user that is) -
[16:27] <guntbert> Halvor: there are many reporting flash problems - but as far as I can see most get theit things sorted with that page
[16:27] <ActionParsnip28> elyria_dehoffran: possibly, try it
[16:27] <joaopinto> soreau, they don't provide sufficient support for full fledged 3D opengl apps, bringing us to the initial problem, compiz+opengl apps
[16:27] <Pici> Halvor: Yes.
[16:27] <ActionParsnip28> !8.04 | halvor
[16:28]  * Elyria_DeHoffran chuckles...Ok,
[16:28] <madura> soreau, i'll give it a try
[16:28] <soreau> joaopinto: That depends on what you mean by full fledged
[16:28] <joaopinto> soreau, running an FPS
[16:28] <soreau> joaopinto: They work fine to play most native linux games
[16:28] <xcv> oCean_: i actually could understand the desire to not include nm applet to a non-admin -- just wasn't sure if that's the way it's supposed to be
[16:28] <Halvor> What a strange name...
[16:28] <mbeierl> soreau: close, but nope.  I can play portions of the dvd - it just that the movie "skips around" instead of playing sequentially
[16:28] <madura> soreau, on wine?
[16:28] <OerHeks> gunbert there is a flashplugin-installer in synaptic
[16:28] <soreau> joaopinto: Oh if you are one of those FPS fiends, just forget it
[16:29] <xcv> oCean_: in other words: feature, bug, or by design? lol
[16:29] <ActionParsnip28> halvor: and Vista isn't a strange name?
[16:29] <soreau> madura: wine is heavily geared toward nvidia users
[16:29] <Halvor> ActionParsnip28: Nah.. :-)
[16:29] <ActionParsnip28> hmmm
[16:29] <madura> soreau, well then i'll dual boot windows :D much easier!
[16:29] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ActionParsnip28,   Whats swfdec-mozilla do?
[16:29] <oCean_> xcv: not sure here. You could try stopping nm-applet for your user, then try to start as the 2nd user (first w/out admin priv)
[16:30] <Halvor> ActionParsnip28: Perhpas a future version will be called Terrence Gunderson
[16:30] <gh0st> hey guys, i'm running a ubuntu server, and im dealing with some REALLY mission critical space, was wondering if there was a way i can remove some stuff to free up space, like possibly all other languages but english etc.. any ideas?
[16:30] <soreau> joaopinto: Oh, you meant first person shooter and not frames per second
[16:30] <joaopinto> soreau, right :P
[16:30] <xcv> oCean_: ty!
[16:30] <ActionParsnip28> elyria_dehoffran: its an opensource flash. you can use it but you must remove the adobe flash first
[16:30] <soreau> joaopinto: As I said, most native linux FPSs work fine like open arena and enemy territory to name a couple
[16:30] <prince> my flv files play with shakeing effect but work fine on xp how to fix this
[16:30] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ActionParsnip28,    Ok, I'll try that, since adobe is already removed.
[16:31] <h00k> I currently have Karmic 32bit with the encrypted home directory set from the installer, I'd like to install the 64bit version instead, how is this going to work with my home directory?
[16:31] <madura> all: anyway thanks for the help! i googled but only found threads that were last replied on 2008! :P
[16:31] <ActionParsnip28> gh0st: remove openoffice and gimp. lots of free space
[16:31] <soreau> madura: Threads for what?
[16:31] <gh0st> ActionParsnip28: im running a server install, i dont think those things are installed
[16:31] <ActionParsnip28> gh0st: localepurge may help too as well as bleachbit
[16:31] <Guest41213> hello
[16:31] <prince> my flv files play with shakeing effect but work fine on xp how to fix this
[16:31] <Apollo2366> Hey guys, I just set up an additional monitor on my box and managed to get a seperate X screen on it, but... I can't do anything with it. The top and bottom panels are blank, I can't right-click, I can't move windows from screen 0 to it. Nothing. Any advice?
[16:31] <filipechichorro> hello there! I've got a problem: i installed ubuntu v9.04 and now i would like to upgrade it to the latest one. but i've got a problem: i've got no more space in the partition. is it possible to increase the space available in the partition i use for ubuntu? i tried to go to the menu "partition editor in Gnome" as the "instructions" said, but I see no such button in the system -> administration menu :P
[16:32] <ActionParsnip28> prince: what xp does or doesn't do is moot
[16:32] <hamz1aatova1> how can i show thew name of tracks in radios>????
[16:32] <grendal_prime> hey what is going to be the next lts?
[16:32] <hamz1aatova1> can i subscribe my little sansa to podcasts???
[16:32] <urthmover> prince: what version of flash are you on? and what OS are you running?
[16:32] <madura> soreau, about this whole filcker thing!
[16:32] <h00k> Apollo2366: what you're looking to do is TwinView, and it depends on what you have for a graphics card
[16:32] <soreau> filipechichorro: If you can free up some space by say, shrinking a different partition, you can expand the ubuntu partition to make it bigger
[16:32] <grendal_prime> im building images for our datacenter i would like to get the jump on this now instead of having to dist upgrade in 3 months.
[16:32] <joaopinto> soreau, ok, they didn't work for me with the current drivers, and from all my readings 3D on the opensource drivers was unusable for game, I will try from xedgers
[16:32] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ActionParsnip28,    No love yet, any other ideas? I have sound for everything else, just not flash type media.
[16:32] <ActionParsnip28> fillpechichorro: try: sudo apt-get clean   and also try bleachbit
[16:33] <prince> my flv files play with shakeing effect but work fine on xp how to fix this
[16:33] <soreau> madura: I already told you how to fix it and the only way while using fglrx is to turn off compiz
[16:33] <grendal_prime> ubottu: lts
[16:33] <ActionParsnip28> prince: installed and configured video drivers?
[16:33] <filipechichorro> ok thank you both for the support! i'll try it!
[16:33] <soreau> joaopinto: Yes, you will definitely need xorg-edgers for any ati HD card
[16:33] <Apollo2366> h00k: Well I did have TwinView enabled, but it looked horrible because the monitors are different sizes and seperated by some distance. I guess what I'm trying to achieve is another actual desktop environment. With it's own desktop cube and everything. Is that possible?
[16:33] <prince> is their any way to do cpp in ubuntu
[16:34] <ActionParsnip28> elyia_dehoffran; could try the 64bit plugin if your Ubuntu is 64bit
[16:34] <Pici> !compile | prince
[16:34] <h00k> Apollo2366: oh, okay. And I'm not sure, but keep asking and perhaps someone can help that knows what they're doing :)
[16:34] <h00k> I currently have Karmic 32bit with the encrypted home directory set from the installer, I'd like to install the 64bit version instead, how is this going to work with my home directory?
[16:34] <crimescene> please help! i just installed some ATI graphic card drives on my new computer and now the screen is totally black except for two white lines at the top of it.
[16:34] <guntbert> prince: are you talking about programming c++ ?
[16:34] <Apollo2366> h00k: Alright.
[16:35] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ActionParsnip28,    This is an x86 machine. =(   Gonna try installing the libs for swfdec.
[16:35] <joaopinto> soreau, the bad thing is that it requires to have stable+unstable package versions, not very good for bug triaging :\
[16:35] <ActionParsnip28> crimescene: boot to root recovery console and uninstall the package using apt-get
[16:35] <musictoto> prince: what do you want to know? if there's an IDE, or if you can compile cpp ?
[16:35] <prince> im running ubuntu ultimate 2.3 and i dont know flash version
[16:35] <townkat> anyone played with realtek based wireles dongle in master mode pls?
[16:35] <crimescene> ok, thanx!
[16:35] <ActionParsnip28> !ultimate | prince
[16:35] <mbeierl> Ok, so VLC is the only DVD player to play my DVD properly.  All the others so far seem to interleave chapters.
[16:36] <prince> how to config video driver
[16:36] <plustax> im having a problem. my 9.10 laptop wont eject my cd
[16:36] <ActionParsnip28> prince: you OS isnt supported here
[16:36] <alabd> Hello ,  a complete manual for configuring LDAP with samba is required , anyone ?
[16:36] <soreau> joaopinto: Probably not.. it is up to the user. I build my own components from git, the kernel, libdrm, xf86-video-ati and mesa. The package names might differ in ubuntu but those are the upstream components you would be using
[16:37] <musictoto> alabd: http://islandlinux.org/howto/installing-samba-openldap-ubuntu
[16:37] <Mikey00> how do i install an mp3 encoder using ubuntu server edition
[16:37] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ActionParsnip28,   Gonna try a reboot and see how it goes.
[16:37] <mkanyicy> mbeierl, at least you have something working, yaaay!
[16:37] <joaopinto> soreau, right, but that way you can't participate on Ubuntu testing, only on Upstream testing
[16:37] <mkanyicy> Mikey00, sudo apt-get install lame
[16:38] <Mikey00> ok will that also install the ffmpeg as well
[16:38] <plustax> im having a problem. my 9.10 laptop wont eject my cd
[16:38] <prince> i installed dosbox and turbo cpp using it doest allow me to minimize ide and can not give runtime inputs
[16:39] <soreau> joaopinto: Well upstream has to be working before ubnutu can do anything with it. Ubuntu just packages the driver components just like all other distros, they dont develop them directly
[16:39] <madura> prince, why won't u use something like code block?
[16:39] <mbeierl> mkanyicy: yes, for playback.  Can't figure out how to rip it in sequence though...
[16:39] <freeride> how to use grep with logical "and" ??
[16:39] <Mikey00> now what about the downloaded files like mp3 encoder do i have to unzip them or no
[16:39] <madura> prince,code blocks*
[16:39] <mkanyicy> Mikey00, yes ffmpeg as well, vorbis-tools as well, faad as well as faac, the list is endless
[16:39] <prince> i installed dosbox and turbo cpp using the dosbox.It doest allow me to minimize ide and can not give runtime inputs
[16:39] <Mikey00> o wow
[16:39] <mkanyicy> mbeierl, use dvd::rip to rip dvd's
[16:39] <mbeierl> plustax: something is probably using it still.  have you tried going to a terminal and typing in "eject"?
[16:40] <Hajex> prince : use code block and make sure c++ compiler is installed
[16:40] <aman> hi all! can anyone help me in rescuing grub in UBUNTU 9.10.????????
[16:40] <joaopinto> soreau, right, but upstram changes&fixs might take a lot to get into ubuntu and be widely available, like for example, the current radeon driver :P
[16:40] <alkisg> freeride: e.g. grep 'UUID.*ext3' /etc/fstab
[16:40] <Mikey00> thanks for   your help mkanyicy
[16:40] <mkanyicy> Mikey00, no prob

[16:41] <aaron11> !language | mkanyicy
[16:41] <Elyria_DeHoffran> OK, that hasnt helped yet...

[16:43] <alkisg> aman: see this: http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-recover-grub2-after-windows.html

[16:47] <jMyles> Which is the best guide for setting up a VPN between two ubuntu boxes?
[16:47] <soreau> joaopinto: Using the xorg-edgers repo? sounds like you might not even have 3D working
[16:47] <durstich-de> Hello. Yesterday I did put up my very first ubuntu Installation. I created a share folder for windows and it worked. Today I cannot access the share - I restarted Samba Services (etc/init.d/samba restart) but I still cannot access the share. Inet is up and running, bcause the apache works. This is 8.04 LTS Version because ist an old otebook and actual ubuntu version did not work on it. Thx in advance for your help.
[16:47] <mkanyicy> plustax, reboot and press the eject button just occasionally
[16:47] <aaron11> Hello there! Im having some trouble with my usb Blue Toothe dongle. The icon that is supposed to apear when going to "Bluetooth" in system preferences Bluetooth is not apearing when checked. I have 2 devices that is now peered with tedy132-0.

[16:48] <joaopinto> soreau, not using xorg-edgers yet
[16:48] <Hajex> aaron11 : make connect with devices
[16:48] <joaopinto> well, I will sacrifice my lucid testing and add the edgers ppa :P
[16:49] <soreau> joaopinto: Then you almost definitely are using software rasterizer (reported by the output of glxinfo|grep renderer)
[16:49] <j3ff> is it safe to install fresh 9.04 and update it to 9.10 via the update manager? i just don't have access to new cd's so...
[16:49] <aaron11> ok
[16:49] <hsquared> hi all, what is the miracle about changing grub.cfg ? The only thing I want to change is the default boot system ...
[16:49] <Pici> j3ff: Sure.
[16:49] <jMyles> musictoto:  I looked there, but that guide is very Microsoft-VPN-centric.  I was wondering if anybody can recommend a better ubuntu-only guide, even if it is a bit more technical.
[16:49] <mkanyicy> durstich-de, can you ping you one machine from another one?
[16:50] <hsquared> but docs say everywhere: when you open it your system will be gone ...
[16:50] <durstich-de> mkanyicy: Yes
[16:50] <aaron11> Hajex: How do I? I dont see it anywhere
[16:50] <crimescene> how do i find the root recovery console?
[16:50] <mkanyicy> durstich-de, it worked fine yesterday?
[16:50] <h00k> hsquared: yeah, that's not the equivalent to menu.lst in grub2 anymore
[16:51] <canthus13> crimescene: reboot. It should be in the grub menu. (You may need to hit escape to get to it)
[16:51] <h00k> hsquared: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2
[16:51] <durstich-de> mkanyicy : Yes!
[16:51] <guntbert> crimescene: on boot press <shift> to get the "grub menu", there you select recovery
[16:51] <crimescene> ok
[16:51] <hsquared> h00k: yeah, found that, so how do I change the default system?
[16:51] <crimescene> thanx
[16:52] <Hajex> aaron11 : if icon is not appear .. this means ur bluetooth driver is not found
[16:52] <musictoto> jMyles: it's difficult to find good documentation about that matter
[16:52] <h00k> hsquared: edit the /etc/boot/grub.cfg and change the "GRUB_DEFAULT=0" number to have it automatically select what one you want
[16:53] <janel> Hi.  Hoping for some help here.  This is the first time I've used pidgin or this group,
[16:53] <jMyles> j3ff: For what it's worth, I upgraded all of my machines and they work fine.
[16:53] <hsquared> h00k: hehe, thanks :-)

[16:53] <hsquared> I thought there was a GUI or so ...

[16:55] <Hajex> aaron11 : is its icon appear in bar but ur devices can't find it?
[16:55] <mkanyicy> janel, feel free to ask a question
[16:55] <janel> Karmic.  When I boot I get black screen and Error 15: file not found.  Can get a bash screen.  Yesterday I uninstalled and re-installed tzdata.  This was a mistake, several files seem to have been deleted at the same time.  Is there any way I can get my OS back
[16:55] <aaron11> Hajex: ??
[16:56] <Diverdude> I have ubuntu 9.10 on a Lenovo T61p. There seems to be a problem with the microphone. I try to go to the sound-recorder application, and record my voice....but only static is played when i try to playback my recorded voice.  Please answer no if you don't think there is such thing.
[17:00] <Guest25333> I tried with fwcutter and didn't work
[17:00] <h00k> ohey, Pici, sorry
[17:00] <Guest25333> so I tried with ndiswrapper
[17:00] <aaron11> I didnt mean that!
[17:00] <ibuclaw> aaron11, O.o
[17:00] <yayness> wondershaper works at limiting download rate on sites but on speed test sites and downloading bigger files, it goes at normal speed, how do i restrict?
[17:00] <Diverdude> I have ubuntu 9.10 on a Lenovo T61p. There seems to be a problem with the microphone. I try to go to the sound-recorder application, and record my voice....but only static is played when i try to playback my recorded voice. What might be the problem?
[17:00] <Guest25333> I get the driver installed, load the ndisrwapper module but the card doesn't show up
[17:00] <madura> Boidoh, you using windows?
[17:00] <Pici> h00k: np :)
[17:00] <Alan502> Diverdude, starting gnome-volume-manager can help
[17:00] <ActionParsnip28> guest25333: use ndisgtk instead
[17:00] <h00k> Pici: I missed the line where you re-opped.
[17:00] <Boidoh> yes
[17:01] <h00k> I currently have Karmic 32bit with the encrypted home directory set from the installer, I'd like to install the 64bit version instead, how is this going to work with my home directory?
[17:01] <Diverdude> Alan502, Where do i start that?
[17:01] <Alan502> Diverdude, the hardware configurations are there, i'm not using gnome atm so i can't tell you were it exactly is
[17:01] <janel> There doesn't seem to be anyone here who is able to help Ubuntu users with their problems.  Am I wrong?
[17:01] <ActionParsnip28> guest25333: does: sudo iwlist scan    show any APs?
[17:01] <Guest81271> i have a urgent problem! When i try to start up my ubuntu-comp, there is just a small white terminal up in the left cornet, everything else is black.. Help?:(
[17:01] <Alan502> Diverdude, try alt + f2, then type "gnome-volume-manager"
[17:01] <ActionParsnip28> janel: depends on the issue and the connected users
[17:01] <Diverdude> Alan502, There is only gnome-volume-control. Is that the one?
[17:01] <madura> Boidohm, k ubuntu is one of that kind but far more different from windows..and its free and community developed and this is a part of it's community!
[17:02] <Alan502> Diverdude, ups, yes that's the one; sorry
[17:02] <filipechichorro> hello again! i've already ran Computer Janitor to free some space in the partition, but because i instaled ubuntu yesterday, it still didn't recognise anything to clean. that way, i'm trying to extent my partition i use for ubuntu because when i first created it it had only 4gb or so, which for me is useless. I already instaled a plugin to get the partition editor in the administration panel. i tried to follow the instructions to make
[17:02] <Guest25333> ActionParsnip28: nope... no APs
[17:02] <NewHero> Guest81271:try xdm
[17:02] <Guest25333> ifconfig -a doesn't show the card either
[17:02] <Diverdude> Alan502, ahh...there i have been in and turn up all volumes
[17:02] <ActionParsnip28> filipechichorro: try bleachbit
[17:02] <Guest81271> newhero? xdm? thats a command?
[17:02] <mbeierl> Boidoh: You've heard of Mac, yes?  Ubuntu (and Linux) is a completely different operating system from MS Windows, just like Mac OSX is different from MS Windows.
[17:02] <Alan502> Diverdude, yes, that should work
[17:02] <h00k> I currently have Karmic 32bit with the encrypted home directory set from the installer, I'd like to install the 64bit version instead, how is this going to work with my home directory?
[17:03] <NewHero> check your interrupts ..
[17:03] <Elyria_DeHoffran> OK, reorganized soundcards, got great sound for everything *except* youtube... =( Any ideas?
[17:03] <karmst> Hello
[17:03] <arisystems> janel:  If you have a prompt but not a GUI, type startx
[17:03] <schilli> I booted lucid in an Eee 1005hab.  I hooked up an external monitor and it recognized it, but when I tried to make the monitors not mirror the desktop and panels went away!  The cursor was still there and moved correctly between the two monitors.
[17:03] <thetrojan01> Hello!
[17:03] <filipechichorro> ActionParsnip28: bleachbit? sorry i'm kinda of noob here... what is that for? :P
[17:03] <ActionParsnip28> guest25333: i'd remove all the ndiswrapper stuff and the fwcutter stuff and start from scratch
[17:03] <guntbert> !lucid | schilli
[17:03] <janel> Ok.  I'll try again.  Karmic.  Won't boot.  Error 15: file not found.  Uninstalled and reinstalled tzdata yesterday.  This seems to have deleted a file.  Does anyone have any idea what I should do?
[17:03] <karmst> Can anyone answer a question about Creative Xfi sound cards and the new Karmic 9.10 x64 OS?
[17:03] <patdk-wk> schilli, does the eee1005 videocard support that? none mirror dual monitors?
[17:03] <Diverdude> Alan502, it does not
[17:04] <Preetam> how to activate the wireless lan in ubuntu 9.10..my wifi is not active even after switch on..
[17:04] <ActionParsnip28> !info bleachbit
[17:04] <mbeierl> schilli: Lucid is still in Alpha.  Have you tried #ubuntu+1 for that?
[17:04] <karmst> does the Xfi driver that comes with Karmic give better results than the Source Driver from Creative?
[17:04] <karmst> or not?
[17:04] <Preetam> iwconfig shows power management: off
[17:04] <schilli> patdk-wk: it is working fine right now in Karmic
[17:04] <thetrojan01> Does anyone know where can I find the arguments of the ./configure script of Xorg, with which the xorg-server is compiled in Ubuntu?
[17:04] <ActionParsnip28> filipechichorro: instead of asking you could find out for yourself
[17:04] <arisystems> janel:  do you get any prompt?
[17:04] <Alan502> Diverdude, then try this. Alt+F2 then type "gnome-terminal". Type alsamixer and enter.
[17:04] <filipechichorro> it still deletes unnecessary files from a partition used by Windows vista?
[17:05] <filipechichorro> sorry, i didn't know that command
[17:05] <AJC_Z0> Preetam: Typically you log in to the desktop and configure Network Manager to access you wireless network(s)
[17:05] <patdk-wk> schilli, oh, lucid, your in the wrong channel, visit #ubuntu+1
[17:05] <ActionParsnip28> filipechichorro: no only linux
[17:05] <schilli> ok
[17:05] <janel> Not sure what you mean by that.  But I can get to a "bash" screen.  Sorry I am a noob
[17:05] <Alan502> Diverdude, there should be a bar that says mic, there, turn it up.
[17:05] <Guest25333> let me see what happens, man.
[17:06] <arisystems> janel:  at the bash prompt, type startx
[17:06] <filipechichorro> the point is that the problem is not that i have few space in the linux partition
[17:06] <AJC_Z0> Pretto: Right click on the network icon in the top panel and choose "Edit Connections..."
[17:06] <ActionParsnip28> filipechichorro: you can delete unneeded file from ntfs under linux if you have write access
[17:06] <jondecker76> can somebody please help me with a broken mdadm raid array?
[17:06] <Alan502> BY THE WAY, Does anyone know an app that would let me use a monitor on a different computer as my second monitor on this computer? something like: http://screenrecycler.com/   , but linux is not supported. Please answer no if you don't think there is such thing.
[17:06] <Pretto> AJ_Z0: me? ;)
[17:06] <h00k> I currently have Karmic 32bit with the encrypted home directory set from the installer, I'd like to install the 64bit version instead, how is this going to work with my home directory?

[17:06] <shawn_> Is it possible that my netbook may not have onboard volume control
[17:06] <thetrojan01> anyone?
[17:06] <guntbert> Alan502: you don't want 1300 "no" :)
[17:07] <karmst> I'm using 2 30inch monitors right now with Karmic
[17:07] <ActionParsnip28> alan502: vnc possibly. why do you need the whole desktop. most things can be achieved with web interfaces and ssh which is much sleeker
[17:07] <karmst> I just mirror the desktops
[17:07] <pzn> how can I "install" ubuntu server 8.04 in another secundary HD? I don't intend to run, just install... (ex: running ubuntu from hda1), want to install ubuntu from iso to hdb1. later I'll remove hdb and put in another computer.
[17:07] <Preetam> i did it but no use the wifi light is not blinking ..
[17:07] <Alan502> ActionParsnip28, i just thought it would be cool :]
[17:07] <Guest81271> newhero: i tried to xdm-command, and installed something and rebooted, but it still wont work! any other idea?
[17:08] <janel> Ifirst get a Ok I'll try that. grub> startx   Error 27: Unrecognized command
[17:08] <ActionParsnip28> alan502: then vnc will do it
[17:08] <Pici> thetrojan01: Take a look at the build logs here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/1:7.4+3ubuntu10/+build/1339646 for the current version in Karmic, or take a look here for a different version: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg
[17:08] <filipechichorro> ill be right back
[17:08] <Alan502> guntbert, lol yeah i don't want a no but i don't want to keep searching if enough people believe there is not such thing
[17:08] <Diverdude> Alan502, the mic seems to work in the sound-recorder when i switch it to microphone2 in the gnome-control
[17:08] <thetrojan01> Thank you Very Very VEERY much Pici! :D
[17:08] <Diverdude> Alan502, Do you have any experience with making skype work in ubuntu?
[17:08] <Alan502> ActionParsnip28, but that will let me control the whole computer right? i just want to connnect the monitro over the network, as if it was connected to my computer directly
[17:08] <karmst> This room is too flooded
[17:09] <Alan502> Diverdude, precisely, i was testing that yesterday. But i did not finish my tests though.
[17:09] <ActionParsnip28> pzn: install it to the second drive as well as grub on the second drive, then have the bios boot the current drive. you can remove the server installed system drive and jam it in another system then
[17:09] <arisystems> janel: That is a boot error with grub-- the OS is not even starting.  I am unsure what the command it withing grub to choose the boot OS.
[17:09] <karmst> Alan use IBM Lantastic
[17:10] <ActionParsnip28> alan502: the full desktop will be shown, so yes
[17:10] <pzn> ActionParsnip28: I dont want to "shutdown" current running ubuntu... just want to do some iso->hdb procedure...
[17:10] <Guest81271> i have a urgent problem! When i try to start up my ubuntu-comp, there is just a small white terminal up in the left cornet, everything else is black. I tried the xdm-command. What can i do? please help me!
[17:10] <janel> Ok.  Where might I get that info?
[17:10] <h00k> I currently have Karmic 32bit with the encrypted home directory set from the installer, I'd like to install the 64bit version instead, how is this going to work with my home directory?
[17:10] <Diverdude> Alan502, hmm... so you got skype working on ubuntu?
[17:10] <Guest2469> I'm back
[17:10] <Guest2469> well... I uninstalled fwcutter
[17:11] <Guest2469> but ndiswrapper still doesn't show the card
[17:11] <ActionParsnip28> pzn: you could use the usb-creator to spit the iso + some config to the drive. it will boot like a livecd
[17:11] <Alan502> Diverdude, not yet. I'm testing now.. it seems turning up the "microphone booster" helps but there is not a clear sound. It might be the poor quality of my microphone tho.
[17:11] <karmst> Ok
[17:11] <Tiders> pzn, Sorry Ive missed some stuff... What are you trying to do
[17:12] <Hannofcart> Despite following instructions here and here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1192296 and here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 I have not managed to get any of the requisite drivers (audio/touchpad/keyboard backlight) working on my Macbook Pro
[17:12] <karmst> does anyone know if there is a way to make the user profile on ubuntu sync with a server share?
[17:12] <Diverdude> Alan502, what computer are you testing on?
[17:12] <Alan502> ActionParsnip28, i'm looking for something more like: http://screenrecycler.com/home.html
[17:12] <janel> This forum is too confusing for me.  Too many people.  thanks for trying to help
[17:12] <karmst> like how redirected documents works in windows?
[17:12] <Hannofcart> If someone can lend me hand please
[17:12] <Alan502> Diverdude, mine :)
[17:12] <ActionParsnip28> h00k: is it possible to decrypt it, then install 64bit then re-encypt it? i've not used encryptfs as it gets too messy in cases like yous and similar
[17:12] <arisystems> janel: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/4622  I am not even suggesting that this will help you as this is explains grub which will not completely help you just understanding how it works.
[17:13] <michael__> hi
[17:13] <h00k> ActionParsnip28: well, it's autmatically done when I log in
[17:13] <Diverdude> Alan502, well what type is that?
[17:13] <h00k> ActionParsnip28: I just used the radio button when I installed Karmic
[17:13] <arisystems> janel:  I suspect that you will be better off simply reloading or booting your cd to repair the os.
[17:13] <ActionParsnip28> alan502: my irc client doesn't open hyperlinks too well
[17:13] <michael__> everyone oh ok
[17:13] <h00k> ActionParsnip28: I just want to know if...64bit will be able to automatically do this the same way
[17:13] <michael__> who gay here
[17:13] <Guest81271> i have a urgent problem! When i try to start up my ubuntu-comp, there is just a small white terminal up in the left cornet, everything else is black. I tried the xdm-command. What can i do? please help me!
[17:13] <xcv> Alan502: vnc will allow you to remote control other computers, but it will not send a video signal from your computer to a remote in a fashion similar to having a 2nd monitor (like shown on screenrecyler web page)
[17:13] <ActionParsnip28> h00k: yes but a special thing decrypts it. can you cancel the encryption in your current OS?
[17:14] <h00k> ActionParsnip28: probably not, no.
[17:14] <Alan502> xcv, yes, that's what i thought. Do you think i can achieve something like screenrecycler on linux?
[17:14] <ActionParsnip28> h00k: that all i know then. encryptfs makes life too complicated for my liking
[17:14] <Alan502> Diverdude, i found that turning up the mic boost helps
[17:14] <Preetam> connect to hidden network, connect to a new network option is not there in the network manager at the system tray after installing ubuntu 9.10
[17:14] <pzn> ActionParsnip28, Tiders: I have an ubuntu 9.10 running. I have a new "hd" hot-plugged to the computer. I have a iso image of ubuntu 8.04 server. I want to install ubuntu 8.04 to this new HD... something about debootstrap for debian... which is the procedure for ubuntu?
[17:15] <Alan502> Diverdude, and unmuting the mic on the gnome-volume-control
[17:15] <h00k> ActionParsnip28: Thanks for the suggestion, I'll log this into my brain
[17:15] <Diverdude> Alan502, in the alsamixer?
[17:15] <ActionParsnip28> pzn: is it usb connected?
[17:15] <xcv> Alan502: i would imagine it's possible, but i have no familiarity with anything that would steer you in the right direction...
[17:15] <pzn> ActionParsnip28: yes
[17:15] <Tiders> pzn, Hmm why not boot from a LiveCD and just install it to that HDD?
[17:16] <Alan502> Diverdude, it should be possible to do it from both.
[17:16] <pzn> I can not shutdown the only computer that I have right now...
[17:16] <pzn> Tiders: I can not shutdown the only computer that I have right now...
[17:16] <Diverdude> Alan502, well...my mic is already umuted and works fine in other applications...just in skype, neither the speakers nor the mic works :(
[17:16] <Alan502> xcv, ok thanks, i think i'll keep googling and maybe find something. I found synergy, what could help, but i haven't tested it
[17:16] <xcv> Alan502: of course, you could run a windows virtual machine on ubuntu, and presumably run the screenrecyler software inside the virtual machine
[17:16] <ActionParsnip28> pzn: then use a different one is all i can suggest
[17:17] <iceroot> how to lock the screen (gdm-gnome) using the cli
[17:17] <ActionParsnip28> pzn: or usb-creator may help
[17:17] <Tiders> pzn, Not sure then
[17:17] <pzn> ActionParsnip28: maybe install virtualbox and use it to install the new hd? do you think it is a good option?
[17:18] <ActionParsnip28> pzn: i think it will make an image file on the drive rather than an install. nice idea. i'd as in #vbox
[17:19] <Alan502> Diverdude, try playing with the 'Sound Devices' tab of the options menu in skype. The official skype app is still young, and can have problems occasionallly.
[17:19] <xcv> Alan502: oh, and along the same lines... have you checked to see if wine supports screenrecycler?
[17:20] <xcv> Alan502: doubt it would work very well, but ya never know without trying
[17:20] <Alan502> xcv, ah, no i haven't. I'll look it up in the wineHQ. With luck i may find it there.
[17:20] <Alan502> xcv, but the thing about running screenrecycler on a virtual vm will force me to use the windows vm righ :\
[17:21] <Guest81271> cant anyone please help my? im a complete ubuntu-noob, and it seems as my system crashed for no reason after only 1 day of usage. It boots ok, but when it is supposed to enter the real screen its just a white terminal in the lefter upper cornerwith a black background. i can move the mouse and type in the terminal
[17:21] <tMx_> how can i make in xchat the user list on a right tab ??
[17:21] <xcv> Alan502: correct
[17:21] <haresh> how to retrive my amsn log whihc i have chatted wiht my freidns

And also I wanted to know if my Bluetooth headphones with mic will work. I want to talk to friends on skype.
[17:22] <ChogyDan> Guest81271: if it is only one day, maybe you should just try to reinstall?
[17:23] <xcv> Guest81271: don't panic :-) i'm sure it can be fixed, but perhaps the easiest way to resolve is to reinstall ubuntu -- have you tried that?

[17:24] <Diverdude> Alan502, crap...for some reason there is no sound at all now :(

[17:25] <OerHeks> nastaros install the HDD, and download ubuntu 9.10 64 bit, burn on cd+r and off you go
[17:25] <Alan502> xcv, there is nothing in the wineHQ, apparently. I'll look for some other similar apps, one could support linux. Thanks for your help.
[17:25] <Hannofcart> Does anyone here have any luck getting drivers to work on Macbook Pro booting Ubuntu? The posts in the forum so far havent helped me get the sound drivers/touchpad drivers/keyboard backlights.

[17:28] <Alan502> !empathy | Diverdude
[17:28] <Diverdude> Alan502, i am using 9.10
[17:28] <sherri> I have a 2wire running now (has prism chip) but it seems weak.
[17:28] <Guest81271> chogydan: no, just a terminal with a black background.. During 1 day firefox has crashed like 3 times, and the system one. And ive always heard linux was so stable, windows has never chrashed for me.
[17:28] <prince> dcc?
[17:29] <Diverdude> Alan502, empathy can use skype account?
[17:29] <minimec> Guest81271: So... you don't get the gdm window... Did you activate some restricted hardware driver for your GPU?

[17:29] <nicolas_> hello
[17:29] <Alan502> Diverdude, yes, if i recall correctly. Tbh i haven't tested it but empathy's site says it does support skype.
[17:29] <SingAlong> hi all
[17:29] <monokrome> Why doesn't the new Ubuntu have a /boot/grub/menu.lst?
[17:29] <LucidPerry> nastas: Just be careful not to format your Windows partition--if you manage to not do that, Windows should automatically show up in the GRUB boot manager upon boot and you'll be able to select between the opearting systems.
[17:30] <ChogyDan> Guest81271: well, not all software available for linux is stable
[17:30] <monokrome> I am trying to add my Windows partition to grub
[17:30] <LucidPerry> nastas: Shoot, wrong person. Sorry.
[17:30] <ChogyDan> !grub2 | monokrome
[17:30] <xcv> Guest81271: i had to google 'xbmc' -- looks cool! but still, after only a day, a reinstall will probably be your easiest path to resolution. especially if your home folder is on its own partition; that way most of the settings will be retained
[17:30] <Guest81271> chogydan: but this wasnt any software, i was just loggin in and out :S
[17:30] <monokrome> Thanks, ChogyDan.
[17:30] <nicolas_> i have a problem with xorg (i believe not to be the first :P) with karmic and radeon, can someone help me?
[17:30] <Guest81271> xcv: it wasnt^^ hehe
[17:31] <Danzl3> hey, I'm getting this error when I'm trying to install libcurl4-openssl-dev: http://pastebin.ca/1737587 ...  anyone know what I should do to fix it ?
[17:31] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ANy ideas for getting sound for youtube?
[17:31] <SingAlong> I set WEP encryption on my wifi connection on the modem settings page and set it up on my netbook (ubuntu 9.10) it didnt work. so i disabled the secutiry and made the connection open. but the netbook isnt connecting. i restarted the netbook (deleted the wifi connections and also restarted the modem after changing the settings). it dooesnt seem to work.
[17:31] <minimec> Guest81271: So. To get that clear. if you make a cold start of that machine, the system boots until it comes to the X-Server (graphical login screen), but the login screen doesn't show up? Do you have automatic login activated or do you need to type your password normally?
[17:32] <ChogyDan> Guest81271: even if your home isn't on a separate partition, the installer won't overwrite it if you don't repartition.  Not something to rely upon, but I believe that is what happens
[17:32] <pontic> Monokrome: use grub.cfg
[17:32] <aaron11> Hello there! Im having some trouble with my usb Blue Toothe dongle. The icon that is supposed to apear when going to "Bluetooth" in system preferences Bluetooth is not apearing when checked. I have 2 devices that is now peered with tedy132-0. And also I wanted to know if my Bluetooth headphones with mic will work. I want to talk to friends on skype.
[17:32] <Guest81271> minimec: thats about it. i have automated on, so it should just enter.
[17:33] <DexterF> if I install gcc-4.2, will it coexist with 4.4 or replace it?
[17:33] <ChogyDan> Guest81271: can you get to one of the virtual terminals?  ie ctrl+alt+f1?
[17:33] <goose> can Ubuntu be dual booted with OS X on a mac?
[17:33] <Guest81271> im gonna check chogydan..
[17:34] <Guest81271> chogydan: yes i could
[17:34] <minimec> Guest81271: The problem is, that we don't know f you have a user session error, or a general gdm (X-server) error. As The system was working after install, I have to guess that it is a user-session error.
[17:34] <ChogyDan> Guest81271: maybe check to see if ubuntu-desktop is installed
[17:34] <yayness> using iptables, how can i restrict bandwidth?  Crash after 1 day! pah. im outta here. thx anyways
[17:35] <minimec> Guest81271: CAn you switch to a console wuth <ctrl><alt>F1?
[17:35] <Danzl3> hey... how would I fix this error:
[17:35] <Danzl3> config.status: creating Makefile
[17:35] <Danzl3> config.status: WARNING:  Makefile.in seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting
[17:35] <Guest81271> minimec: yes i could
[17:35] <ChogyDan> Guest81271: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^
[17:35] <Guest81271> okey
[17:35] <Alan502> Snowboarder, nm, can i help you? i saw ActionParsnip28 helping you
[17:36] <minimec> Guest81271: O. Switch to the console F1 and login with your name and password.
[17:37] <Danzl3> anyone?
[17:37] <IceMan> Hello! While trying to get various theme engines to work for me, I followed
[17:38] <ChogyDan> Danzl3: did you run ./configure?  You should ask upstream
[17:38] <Snowboarder> it seems that the sound preferences gui were much better in 9.04. Why did they degrade it?
[17:38] <minimec> Guest81271: still there?
[17:39] <Danzl3> yea I did... I ChogyDan
[17:39] <Danzl3> that's how I got that error
[17:39] <ChogyDan> Snowboarder: its the pulseaudio thing
[17:39] <Danzl3> I've googled and some artive said to install libcurl4-openssl-dev
[17:39] <Danzl3> which I did
[17:39] <Danzl3> but I'm still getting that error
[17:39] <IceMan> Hello! When I was going to enable compiz at my desktop, I was asked to install nvidia-glx-new in order for it to work correctly. I did so, rebooted, and found my screen getting black as soon as the login windows appeared. I did a "sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx-new", and I'm back to normal, but now I cannot get any higher resolution than 800x600. Any way to fix it again?
[17:40] <Snowboarder> ChogyDan, what is?
[17:40] <ChogyDan> Snowboarder: the new sounds preferences,  It goes along with the PA sound server
[17:40] <monokrome> ChogyDan: That doesn't explain how to manually add an OS
[17:41] <Snowboarder> Alan502, yeah...i am having a hard time with skype on ubuntu 9.10 on a T61P thinkpad
[17:41] <trism> Danzl3: that isn't an error, it is a warning (which may or may not be important)
[17:41] <Elyria_DeHoffran> WOuld mozilla plugins make any difference in the lack of sound issue for youtube/
[17:41] <ChogyDan> monokrome: its not autodetected?
[17:41] <Dam0> hey
[17:41] <Snowboarder> ChogyDan, I found this on google: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_GMF5dyzKQUw/Sfp9GY-XrPI/AAAAAAAABoU/1hLl0Mynyz0/s1600-h/T61_jaunty_sound.png     but is unfortunately for 9.04, so I do not have the same adjustment options in 9.10
[17:41] <monokrome> ChogyDan: Yea. It's not autodetected, but I know it's on /dev/sdb - and a script that probes for OS's just found it.
[17:42] <Danzl3> trism... it doesn't compile properly with that error
[17:42] <aaron11> Hello there! Im having some trouble with my usb Blue Toothe dongle. The icon that is supposed to apear when going to "Bluetooth" in system preferences Bluetooth is not apearing when checked. I have 2 devices that is now peered with tedy132-0. And also I wanted to know if my Bluetooth headphones with mic will work. I want to talk to friends on skype.
[17:42] <Alan502> Snowboarder, ah your nickname change confused me. Well, did you try empathy?
[17:42] <Dam0> i have a newpc with 2 hard drives, 1 harddrive is new and one is old...both were working perfect before...but wehen i installed windows 7 i had to reinstall ubuntu and evertime i try to run it not i just get a blury image on my desktop....any ideas? plz
[17:43] <minimec> Guest81271: Are you still with us?
[17:43] <trism> Danzl3: that is unlikely to be a warning that would stop you from compiling, it may cause issues after installing though, but without actually knowing what you're trying to build, can't really help much more
[17:44] <Snowboarder> Alan502, ahh sorry
[17:44] <Dam0> i have a new pc with 2 hard drives, 1 harddrive is new and one is old...both were working perfect before...but when i installed windows 7 i had to reinstall ubuntu on my second drive again....and evertime i try to run it i just get a blury image on my desktop....any ideas? plz i cant move my mouse i cant even see it....?
[17:44] <Dam0> sorry for the repeat
[17:44] <ChogyDan> Elyria_DeHoffran: how did you install flash?
[17:44] <aaron11> !repeat | Dam0
[17:44] <mm1> hello
[17:44] <Dam0> sorry
[17:44] <Dam0> :)
[17:45] <Elyria_DeHoffran> I wiped all the installs, then installed flashplugin-installer via synaptics
[17:45] <kriox125> hi people..
[17:45] <Snowboarder> Alan502, yeah....you cannot have skype in empathy it seems
[17:45] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ChogyDan,   I wiped all the installs, then installed flashplugin-installer via synaptics
[17:45] <ChogyDan> Elyria_DeHoffran: hmm, maybe you have one of the flash alternatives installed?
[17:45] <Alan502> Snowboarder, did you try changing the setting on the Sound Devices tab of skype's option menu?
[17:46] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ChogyDan,   Ok, let me uninstall evetything again. =)
[17:46] <Dam0> can anyone recomend me doing anything to help solce my problem?
[17:46] <ChogyDan> Elyria_DeHoffran: wait
[17:46] <Dam0> i have read alot of forums but no heklp YET
[17:46] <kriox125> it is possible use an old kernell and install new software? ie use ubuntu 7.04 and install ooo 3.1?
[17:46] <ChogyDan> Elyria_DeHoffran: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras sun-java6-plugin && sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun && sudo apt-get remove mozilla-plugin-gnash swfdec-mozilla
[17:46] <Dam0> does ubuntu have to run on a eta4 drive? EXtention?
[17:46] <Dam0> or 3?
[17:46] <Elyria_DeHoffran> Ok....
[17:47] <SingAlong> I set WEP encryption on my wifi connection on the modem settings page and set it up on my netbook (ubuntu 9.10) it didnt work. so i disabled the secutiry and made the connection open. but the netbook isnt connecting. i restarted the netbook (deleted the wifi connections and also restarted the modem after changing the settings). it dooesnt seem to work.
[17:47] <Snowboarder> Alan502, yeah i tried many different settings there, hitting "Make test sound" each time....and nomatter what I seem to choose there is just silence when I press the "testsound" button
[17:47] <ChogyDan> kriox125: the only answer I have heard is through getdeb.net
[17:47] <monokrome> grub2 is evil
[17:47] <Dam0> ok no one can help me i guess
[17:47] <nastaros> Hey, I am on Windows 7 atm, and i want to install Ubuntu on Another Hard drive disk... is it possible?
[17:47] <Danzl3> trism, it's libtorrent that I'm trying to build
[17:47] <ChogyDan> monokrome: still not detecting?
[17:47] <Abs_T> hi
[17:47] <Dam0>  : im having trouble it isd possible
[17:48] <minimec> kriox125: I don't know why you stiil use 7.04, but OpenOffice 3.1 should run without Problem with old kernels, as it doesn't use any stange kernel modules.
[17:48] <Dam0> nastaros
[17:48] <monokrome> ChogyDan: I already read the whole article, tried to get it to autodetect. Doesn't work. I just installed Ubuntu this morning.
[17:48] <Abs_T> when I do: sudo apt-get install eclipse sun-java6-jdk   I have this errors
[17:48] <Abs_T> *E: Impossible de verrouiller /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Ressource temporairement non disponible)
[17:48] <Abs_T> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[17:48] <petsounds> !installation > nastaros
[17:48] <bastid_raZor> Dam0: ext3 for 9.04 and before and ext4 is available for 9.10
[17:48] <Abs_T> and whith: sudo aptitude install eclipse
[17:48] <Abs_T> *E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem
[17:48] <Abs_T> what's the problem ?
[17:48] <ChogyDan> Abs_T: close the other programs
[17:48] <Dam0> okies thanks
[17:48] <nastaros> Thanks
[17:48] <bastid_raZor> Abs_T: run the command it suggests
[17:48] <ardchoille> Abs_T: you have another package manager open, close it
[17:48] <kriox125> thanks guys
[17:49] <kriox125> i have an old pc and i try and using on that platform i thik that it'is faster
[17:49] <Alan502> Snowboarder, hmmm... i'm looking if any other app supports skype too
[17:49] <Alan502> !skype
[17:50] <kriox125> sorry for my english
[17:50] <Snowboarder> Alan502, did you manage on your computer?
[17:50] <kriox125> i thinks that if i use an old version it's faster or i make a mistake?
[17:50] <nahs> I've got this little bug here people, I've reported it I'm wondering if I'm the only one affected
[17:50] <nahs> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/503041
[17:51] <SingAlong> anyone on the wifi thing?
[17:51] <Alan502> Snowboarder, yes, but i did not have to configure anything in the skype options. Just the usual on alsamixer.
[17:51] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ChogyDan,   Ok, did that and still no love.
[17:51] <ChogyDan> monokrome: well, you can always make your own custom script, but if it isn't detecting, that is also a bug.
[17:52] <amitauti> for Skype, I heard that Spokn is in market.. any news its on Ubuntu?
[17:52] <minimec> kriox125: I don't think that 7.04 is much faster... On the other hand. 7.04 is not supported anymore. I would install a new Xubuntu Karmic on that machine with ext4 Partitions. THa will speed up you computer... ;)
[17:52] <Hannofcart> goose, if you are around... yes.. you can N boot on mac... I am triple booting currently
[17:52] <monokrome> ChogyDan: And I know it's detectable, because I downloaded this boot_info_script044.sh that found Windows 7.
[17:52] <monokrome> ChogyDan: The scripts are ugly as sin.
[17:52] <blakkheim> minimec: even xubuntu is pretty bloated
[17:53] <stevenvu> hi i don't usually use irc and need some help
[17:53] <trism> Danzl3: libtorrent is in the repos, so you probably don't need to build it unless you really need the latest version; although if you want to build it, do a sudo apt-get build-dep libtorrent11; that should get you everything you need to build it
[17:53] <stevenvu> do i just ask for help in here?
[17:53] <minimec> blakkheim: Yeah but it will run faster than that old 7.04.
[17:54] <amitauti> stevenvu, yes you are right
[17:54] <VCoolio> !ask | stevenvu
[17:54] <kriox125> i'm just use xfce on my debian lenny, i talking abaut a pentium 3 1000 and 256 mb of ram
[17:54] <danny_> im having a memory error in Wine and my coputer is new so i would like to belive ram is good. so i belive it is Wine im currently at wine 1.1.35, should i downgrade to a more stable version or and what version to i downgrade to?
[17:55] <blakkheim> danny_: /join #winehq
[17:55] <jellow> Kirovski: you can try crunchbag linux ubuntu ẉith openbox its only 400mb
[17:55] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ChogyDan,   Ok, dunno if this matters, but...I'm running 9.04 x86, all my other sound works, though the voloume control has no effect on anything. Youtube-type sound is the only issue I am having.  I ran the install you recommended, but no luck yet. ANy other ideas?
[17:55] <pzn> 8.04 is hardy?
[17:55] <OerHeks> danny_ how do you know your ram is oke ? did you test it with memtest ?
[17:55] <blakkheim> jellow: crunchbang is just as bloated as regular ubuntu
[17:55] <Guest80516> i need help, i just install ubuntu 9.10 in my notebook and i got the drivers used with windows xp, how do i get their equivalents for ubuntu. please help.
[17:56] <blakkheim> Guest80516: drivers for what
[17:56] <pzn> danny_: better not be sure the RAM is good, even if the computer is new. it is simple to get an iso image of memtest and boot the computer with it to test the ram. www.memtest86.org
[17:56] <Guest80516> wireless, audio, lan
[17:56] <danny_> OerHeks, yes i did
[17:56] <Elyria_DeHoffran> Guest, Any drivers sh9oujld have installed form the cd.
[17:56] <jellow> blakkheim: how you work that out my install is only 1g with everything i need
[17:56] <blakkheim> Guest80516: audio and lan will most likely work out of the box, what wireless card does it have?
[17:56] <theball> hi, could some one point me tward and eq for ubuntu?
[17:57] <monokrome> ChogyDan: I think I got it... Definitely a bug, though,
[17:57] <minimec> Guest80516: First... Find the device, that is not working properly.
[17:57] <stevenvu> I was using 9.10 and was accessing a ntfs partition. I was extracting an archive when the computer became unresponsive. couldn't alt ctrl backspace or get into another tty. I turned off the computer. Turns out i curropted the ntfs partition. windows won't boot, tried chkdsk with /r and /f, which came back with the mft could not be recovered. I then tried testdisk on ubuntu which crashed with a mftsegmentation fault.
[17:57] <OerHeks> danny_ what program gives errors under wine ?
[17:57] <Guest80516> i dont know i just have the driver for windows
[17:57] <Snowboarder> Alan502, i see...what type of computer are you using?
[17:57] <Snowboarder> Alan502, a custom built?
[17:58] <Guest80516> notebook compaq
[17:58] <minimec> Guest80516: Do you see a device on that system, that doesn't work properly?
[17:58] <nahs> stevenvu: ouch
[17:58] <blakkheim> jellow: my installation was less than half of that
[17:58] <mnass> somebody uses Sony Ericsson W980 with 9.10 ? does it work?
[17:58] <blakkheim> jellow: (not of crunchbang, obviously)
[17:58] <stevenvu> nahs: i know, turns out ntfs3g aint that robust
[17:59] <stevenvu> nahs: is there anything else i can try
[17:59] <Guest37939> hello, what does "fix released" in launchpad bugs mean? How can I see which version of the software it actually appeared in?
[17:59] <azm> hi. I have plugged ps2 keyboard with usb converter in NTB and it seems not working, where can be the problem ?
[17:59] <Alan502> Snowboarder, yes, with an intel motherboard
[17:59] <nahs> I have a  ntfs partition for Media/Data and an ext3 partition for the operating system itself so I don't have to bother with backing up stuff when I'm doing a new-release clean install
[18:00] <nahs> I'd threaten ubuntu if my partition was corrupted lol
[18:00] <Alan502> Snowboarder, it seems that pidgin has a plugin that will let you use it with skype
[18:00] <stevenvu> nahs: i'm actually a little peeved. Apparently a currupt mft should only be caused by a physical defect
[18:01] <disappearedng> Hey how do I scroll up using my keyboard in ubuntu
[18:01] <Halvor> I am using 8.04 and I have problems installing Adobe Flash to work in Firefox. With all the help I have received on this channel so far flash still doesn't work. Can anyone help me?
[18:01] <Elyria_DeHoffran> Arrow keys?
[18:01] <nahs> stevenvu: getting proper help here is almost impossible, good luck getting your stuff back :/
[18:01] <minimec> mnass: How do you want to use that phone in combination with your computer?
[18:01] <stevenvu> nahs: I plugged the hdd into another computer running windows and getdataback shows all the files so i should just be able to rebuld the mft but i havn't found a way how to
[18:02] <nahs> stevenvu: I accidentally found like 8 bugs today in 9.10, 5 un-reported
[18:02] <nahs> I think Ubuntu should be more of bug-squashing than feature adding.
[18:02] <rick_2047> hey how can I connect a ubuntu machine with a windows machine using ethernet cable or a router?
[18:02] <Guest80516> the wireless driver is intel ProSet
[18:02] <guntbert> nahs: did you report them?
[18:02] <stevenvu> nahs: they really shouldn't include ntfs3g if it isn't ready to be used everyday
[18:03] <nahs> guntbert: yep, just reported a new one a second ago
[18:03] <nahs> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/503041
[18:03] <stevenvu> rick: i unplugged the drive and plugged it into another computer using a sata cable
[18:03] <stevenvu> i tried to do a dd of the partition onto a nas but nas was too slow going at 15mb.s
[18:03] <nahs> stevenvu: Same goes out for ext4, it still needs a lot of work
[18:04] <Elyria_DeHoffran> rick_2047,   Samba is your freind. Just mount the dir in samba and make it viewable. Then make sure your windows firewall allow the connection.
[18:04] <minimec> mnass: MassStorage device should work...  Can you check if the bug I reported affects you as well?
[18:05] <stevenvu> elyria, the partiitoon wasn't mountable so i actually mounted the nas using smbfs and tried to dd the partition directly to the nas
[18:05] <Elyria_DeHoffran> rick_2047,   Are you using a router or a direct connection?
[18:05] <Halvor> Can someon help me with installing flash?
[18:05] <blakkheim> jellow: i don't use preconfigured things, i like to set it all up myself, how i want it
[18:05] <rick_2047> Elyria_DeHoffran: whichever will work I have a ut-300ru router
[18:05] <nahs> aMSN doesn't work at all in 9.10 too, emesene is buggy as hell.
[18:05] <stevenvu> nahs: what bug is that
[18:05] <nahs> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/503041
[18:05] <Elyria_DeHoffran> stevenvu   I cant help you. I dont know enough about that.
[18:06] <Guest80516> i tried to install the driver directly but it gave me a message that it was not a zip file, it doesnt recognize it as an .exe file
[18:06] <stevenvu> nahs: that]
[18:06] <nahs> stevenvu: the link I just posted https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/503041 check it out and let me know
[18:07] <Guest37939> it says fix released in the bug report on launchpad, is there a way to see which version of the package that fix made its way in?
[18:07] <nahs> it's nothing raelly but it pisses me off
[18:07] <Elyria_DeHoffran> rick_2047,   I use a router, and, once I mount the drive as a samba share and make it viewable, my windows box has no trouble accessing it.
[18:07] <rick_2047> Elyria_DeHoffran: no other configuration has to be done?
[18:07] <Elyria_DeHoffran> rick_2047,    To access the windows box, however, you need to make sure that any firewall is not blocking the connection.
[18:07] <stevenvu> nahs: thats the bug that i got, when extracting the arcive the computer locked up. After the partition was screwed i noticed the same problem when trying to copy it over to the nas, after copying 30gb the computer slowed down to a crawl
[18:07] <amitauti> how to convert laptop to wifi router in 9.10?
[18:08] <Elyria_DeHoffran> rick_2047,    I didnt need to do any other config, no.
[18:08] <nahs> stevenvu: Then its some ef-up with the clipboard
[18:08] <SingAlong> amitauti: select the wifi connection and set it to adhoc. it would be preset to insfracture
[18:08] <minimec> Guest80516: Soyour wireless network is not working. Is that correct?
[18:08] <nahs> stevenvu: right feedback or something on that bug so it gets attention/gets fixed
[18:09] <rick_2047> Elyria_DeHoffran: k lemme try it out

[18:13] <durstich-de> Hello. Yesterday I did put up my very first ubuntu Installation (It is my first try with Linux also). I created a share folder for windows and it worked (I was able to create folders and move files). Today I cannot access the share - I restarted Samba Services (etc/init.d/samba restart) but I still cannot access the share. Inet is up and running, bcause the apache works.

[18:13] <Maletor> I have /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/ in my ~/.bashrc . This doesn't seem good. Can someone assure me this is the best way to do this?
[18:14] <Hann> I am unable to get audio/trackpad/keyboard backlight working on Ubuntu running on Macbook Pro, diagnostic here http://docs.google.com/#all

[18:15] <blakkheim> Elyria_DeHoffran: gimp
[18:15] <MorphyNOR> Elyria_DeHoffran: gimp with modifications
[18:15] <init[1]> Elyria_DeHoffran: gimpshop .
[18:15] <blakkheim> Elyria_DeHoffran: there's even a plugin to make it look almost just  like photoshop
[18:16] <Elyria_DeHoffran> blakkheim,  Thanks, need to go look for that then. =)
[18:16] <MorphyNOR> afaik gimp is still installed by default with ubuntu, isnt it?
[18:16] <Elyria_DeHoffran> MorphyNOR,   Ya.
[18:16] <amitauti> SingAlong: Got the message 'no gateway reoky'.. trying to use it on my mobile
[18:16] <Weric> how can i make a live from my install??
[18:17] <iceroot> MorphyNOR: yes  only 10.4 dont have it by default
[18:17] <amitauti> SingAlong:*reply
[18:17] <MorphyNOR> iceroot: right...
[18:17] <SingAlong> amitauti: ?
[18:17] <Elyria_DeHoffran> blakkheim,   Whats the package name for that gimp plugin?
[18:17] <Maletor> Hilikus: source the file? what do you mean?
[18:17] <amitauti> SingAlong: Got the message 'no gateway reply'.. trying to use wifi on my mobile
[18:17] <Hilikus> iceroot: why is it being removed?
[18:18] <iceroot> Hilikus: to keep the system small
[18:18] <blakkheim> Elyria_DeHoffran: no idea
[18:18] <Elyria_DeHoffran> blakkheim,   Ok, search it is. =) Thanks./
[18:18] <Hilikus> Maletor: what do you mean its not good? i misread, thought you said it doesnt work
[18:18] <_raven_> which tool is able to find double files by filename?
[18:18] <SingAlong> amitauti: No idea about it. I only know that adhoc is the option you need. I dont know how to set it up :)
[18:19] <amitauti> SingALlong: THanks!
[18:19] <tarzeau> _raven_: fdupes? or find?
[18:19] <Halvor> I am looking for some clues to why installing the Adobe flash plugin doesn't register in Firefox.
[18:20] <SingAlong> amitauti: I read in a subject what adhoc is about. thats how I can say that it is what you are looking for :)
[18:20] <Mikey001> what is the command to remove mysql
[18:20] <_raven_> tarzeau, ok tnx
[18:20] <internalkernel> Halvor: its not installed in a location that firefox would expect it - my first guess...
[18:20] <SingAlong> Mikey001: why not use the pkg manager?
[18:21] <Mikey001> o lets try that
[18:21] <SingAlong> Mikey001: I think its "sudo apt-get remove mysql-server mysql-client mycql-common"
[18:21] <domjohnson> does anyone know how to compile Delphi in Ubuntu?
[18:21] <Mike_lifeguard> Hello. I wanted to check ssh keys with ssh-vulnkey, and I have installed openssh-blacklist and openssh-blacklist-extra. However, I still get one listed as unknown:
[18:21] <Mike_lifeguard> /home/alphos/.ssh/authorized_keys:2: Unknown (blacklist file not installed): RSA 1023 ad:01:41:d1:9e:0d:fe:c5:5f:13:91:7c:3f:8f:6c:8c /home/alphos/.ssh/authorized_keys
[18:21] <Halvor> internalkernel: That seems to be the problem, but what can I do about that. Also, it sounds like a strange issue as I should think that installing flash to work with Firefox is a fairly normal thing to do.
[18:22] <minimec> Halvor: How do you install the flash-plugin? 'sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer'? http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/flashplugin-installer
[18:22] <hp_> witam
[18:22] <Mike_lifeguard> That's wrong - should be 1024 length, not 1023 right? Should I simply remove that key, since it is somehow broken?
[18:22] <internalkernel> Halvor: I would agree - what version of firefox, flash & 32bit or 64bit system?
[18:22] <guntbert> !pl | hp_
[18:22] <Halvor> minimec: I have used Synaptec
[18:22] <Maletor> I have /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/ in my ~/.bashrc This doesn't seem like the proper way to do things. Can someone assure me this is good?
[18:22] <taipansen> ubuntu rules
[18:23] <Mike_lifeguard> Maletor: what are you trying to do?
[18:23] <guntbert> taipansen:  Do you have an ubuntu support question?
[18:23] <Mikey001> trying manager
[18:23] <Hilikus> Maletor: good for what
[18:23] <n16h7f0x_> is there any tool to backup my mbr
[18:23] <iceroot> n16h7f0x_: dd
[18:23] <Maletor> use gems in that directory
[18:23] <Hilikus> n16h7f0x_: dd
[18:23] <n16h7f0x_> can anybody specify completely the command
[18:24] <minimec> Halvor: Ok. And you also installed fiefox via synaptic? Did you clos al open firefox windows and start a clean new firefox session?
[18:24] <Um_cara_qualquer> excuse me, i installed wallpaper clock here, but when the minutes changes, another wallpaper clock appears... how can i fix this problem?
[18:24] <Halvor> minimec: I did that, yes
[18:24] <n16h7f0x_> dd if=/dev/hdx of=MBR-backup bs=512 count=1  like this?
[18:25] <Mikey001> ok how do i find sudu password
[18:25] <blakkheim> Mikey001: there isn't a root password by default
[18:25] <Mike_lifeguard> Mikey001: it is /your/ password
[18:25] <blakkheim> Mikey001: if you run a command with "sudo" before it, it's the same password as yours, or you can run "sudo passwd root" to set a root password
[18:25] <minimec> Halvor: In fact, what you did, is the same that thousands of ubuntu user did after install, and you are the only one, not to be successfull? That would be starnge... You are on Ubuntu 9.10?
[18:26] <guntbert> !noroot | blakkheim
[18:26] <Halvor> internalkernel: Firefox 3.0.11, Flashplayer <IP_ADDRESS>-1, 32 bit system
[18:26] <trism> domjohnson: you may want to try out free pascal and lazarus (an ide for free pascal), it apparently supports compiling delphi code
[18:26] <Halvor> minimec: 8.04
[18:26] <taipansen> sudo chpasswd root??
[18:26] <trism> domjohnson: they are both in the repositories
[18:26] <blakkheim> yassine_: you don't need the ch
[18:27] <blakkheim> taipansen: * sorry
[18:27] <internalkernel> Halvor: where did you install flash from - repo or adobe's site?
[18:27] <taipansen> ^
[18:27] <blakkheim> tab autocomplete fail
[18:27] <Halvor> internalkernel: Adobe's site
[18:27] <minimec> Halvor: Ok. 8.04. That is really a different story.
[18:27] <internalkernel> Halvor: how's your teminal kung fu?
[18:27] <internalkernel> :)
[18:28] <Mikey001> ok got password
[18:28] <Halvor> internalkernel: I don't understand
[18:28] <Will123456> hey guys. the user and groups password changer is a bit trigger happy on rejecting "similar" passwords (new pw too similar to old pw) - obviously the work around is just to set it to a totally random pw THEN set it to the one you want, but is there any way to disable it totally? (for convenience's sake)
[18:28] <internalkernel> Halvor: do you know your way around the teminal / command line?
[18:28] <blakkheim> Will123456: run "sudo passwd username" to change it manually
[18:28] <Will123456> blakkheim: thanks
[18:28] <Will123456> :)
[18:29] <Halvor> internalkernel: Not really. I did a bit 15 years ago, nut I have not been using Linux since.
[18:29] <skfet> Hi! I've got a rather complicated question considering encrypted file systems. Anyone cares to help out? Thanks in advance.
[18:29] <domjohnson> thanks trism :0
[18:29] <domjohnson> :)
[18:29] <blakkheim> !ask | skfet
[18:29] <skfet> yh, I'm familiar with the rules.
[18:30] <internalkernel> Halvor: my guess is - adobe drops the flash library in /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so - firefox expects it in someplace like /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/
[18:30] <internalkernel> Halvor: try opening a terminal and just typing: ls /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/
[18:30] <slesnett> sound problem alsa on 9.10 with skype and ekiga any ideas?
[18:30] <Pulse9> hi?
[18:30] <Halvor> internalkernel: Yes, bitplane also figured that and wanted me to copy over the .so file
[18:30] <NewHero> j
[18:31] <epinky> !hi | Pulse9
[18:31] <internalkernel> Halvor: that didn't help?
[18:31] <Halvor> internalkernel: I never did it. The denied permission stopped me
[18:31] <internalkernel> Halvor: ahh, use sudo command
[18:32] <Halvor> internalkernel: And then later another user said that that ought not be necessary...
[18:32] <skfet> I've got two hard disks, one with windows7, the other one with LinuxMint8 (ubuntu). Both os's are fully encrypted. In order to restore grub2 I have to manually mount the linux partitions. Does anyone know how to this, since they're all encrypted (luks)?
[18:32] <Pulse9> Hi i was looking for a simple program that mix songs i just want to cut a songs and paste it in another just that do you know a program?
[18:32] <internalkernel> Halvor: and we'll do a symlink instead of copying.
[18:32] <Halvor> internalkernel: Yes, I have done that (but after I made the copy attempt)
[18:32] <Pulse9> skfet download the grub 2 disk
[18:32] <Halvor> internalkernel: I can try again to copy over the file
[18:33] <Will123456> Pulse9: this isn't a gnome/ubuntu-specific program but audacity'd do that fine
[18:33] <internalkernel> Halvor: there's also another place that ubuntu uses to identify libraries like this - which could also create problems
[18:33] <skfet> Pulse9: will that solve the mounting issue?
[18:33] <a_> http://xdccing.com/
[18:33] <Will123456> Pulse9: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
[18:33] <Pulse9> skfet: with the grub2 you can rune in a console your session
[18:33] <Pulse9> and then you can write
[18:33] <a_> angeli e demoni
[18:33] <Elyria_DeHoffran> ANy ideas on how to get sound in youtube?
[18:33] <domjohnson> Is there a way to limit my computers bandwidth allocation on my network?
[18:33] <Pulse9> sudo grub-mkconfig
[18:34] <internalkernel> Halvor: after you try copying over the file, restart firefox - if the plugin is still not there try: ls -al /etc/alternatives |grep flash in a terminal
[18:34] <Pulse9> then
[18:34] <Pulse9> let me check i write it in some place
[18:34] <Halvor> internalkernel: Can you help me with locating the file?
[18:34] <epinky> domjohnson: search for queue disciplines
[18:35] <internalkernel> Halvor: which file? adobe's or where we want to put it?
[18:35] <domjohnson> epinky : in nautillus?
[18:35] <Pulse9> thanks Will123456
[18:35] <Pulse9> i will check :D!
[18:35] <Halvor> internalkernel: Adobe's that I have somewhere in my dirs
[18:35] <slesnett> Can anyone tell me how to find a downloadable  copy 8.10 so I scrap 9.04 & 9.10?
[18:36] <epinky> domjohnson: unfortunately no, you've got to learn some QoS(quality of service) basics to do what you want
[18:36] <Halvor> internalkernel: It used to be at ./lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so
[18:36] <domjohnson> ok
[18:36] <internalkernel> Halvor: right, so let's make sure we know where it is - ls /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/ and make sure you see the libflashplayer.so file
[18:36] <internalkernel> Halvor: so it's not there anymore?
[18:36] <krio> slesnett: TAKE A LOOK ON UBUNTU OLD VERSION OR SAMTHING LIKE
[18:36] <krio> sorry
[18:37] <Halvor> internalkernel: It is still there
[18:37] <slesnett> thanks
[18:37] <LucidPerry> I just hooked up an old IDE drive to my computer, and after showing the Ubuntu logo I simply get a command prompt that says "Mount of Filesystem failed". I'm unsure of what to do...and I'd normally try to troubleshoot it myself, but I'd rather not lose my operating system.
[18:38] <webbb82> hey can anyone in here give me a hand figuring out why my sound wont work
[18:38] <LucidPerry> Also note that the IDE drive is now removed. I simply wanted to see what was on it.
[18:38] <Gieke> hello
[18:38] <Halvor> internalkernel: I tried  cp ./lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
[18:38] <slesnett> the quality on the the new versions just don't work with skype.
[18:38] <webbb82> the drivers are installed its not on mute i dunno whats wrong
[18:38] <Gieke> is there a way to let 'pidgin' display the songs u listen in rhytmbox
[18:38] <goose> when doing a cron job which has arguments, can I do:
[18:38] <goose> 0 * * * * * 'pisg -arguments blah blah'
[18:38] <internalkernel> Halvor: ok, then try this: sudo update-alternatives /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so "firefox-flashplugin" /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so 50
[18:39] <slesnett> bye
[18:39] <Elyria_DeHoffran> webbb82,   Look in sounds, and see what options you have. I had to edit through there to get my sound working.
[18:39] <internalkernel> Halvor: you can also do the same for mozilla: sudo update-alternatives /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so "mozilla-flashplugin" /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so 5
[18:40] <Elyria_DeHoffran> And youtiube stil has issues.. =)
[18:40] <webbb82> im doing that rite now and i dont see anything that would not give me sound
[18:40] <mediaprodigy> !hardware
[18:40] <epinky> LucidPerry: boot LiveCD and check  /etc/fstab, sometimes IDE is set as "sdX" when it should be "hdX" in your case
