[05:09] <white_magic> but im sure i i reboot, there will definitely be a problem
[05:09] <itsux2bu> is grub text based only?
[05:10] <white_magic> oh.. also, when i run sudo fdisk -l, it says at the botton 'artition table entires are not in disk order'..
[05:10] <white_magic> itsux2bu, i'm pretty sure it's text based only, yea
[05:10] <spartan117> walter89_ :I can send message in private?
[05:10] <itsux2bu> grub2 is   *nix-aware, Windows-aware, OS X-aware?
[05:10] <walterj89_> mobasher  I've never installed a vnc server on linux,  its got the build in remote view be default somewhere
[05:10] <white_magic> but the ubuntu installer do most of the editing for you...
[05:10] <white_magic> hopefully you never have to edit it yourself
[05:10] <dpac_> Guest29705: It seems like the problem is just with one package. Can you reproduce the error when you try to install any other package too?
[05:10] <pfifo> white_magic, pastebin fdisk -l then
[05:11] <mobasher> walterj89_, k i'll check it out
[05:11] <white_magic> itsux2bu, yea it is aware
[05:11] <white_magic> pfifo, ok
[05:11] <itsux2bu> of all these OSes?
[05:11] <Guest29705> yes. so far all the packages I try to install get that error
[05:11] <itsux2bu> *those
[05:11] <vbox> Hi
[05:11] <pfifo> woohoo i got gmailfs to work
[05:11] <white_magic> itsux2bu, well it thought my win7 was vista, but that's not such a sin. i havent tried mac.. but i'm sure it will recognize it
[05:11] <vbox> Someone know how to configure a virtual host using Apache?
[05:11] <white_magic> it handles windows and linux very well though
[05:12] <dpac_> Guest29705: try sudo apt-get install -f
[05:12] <itsux2bu> grub2 is  cd/dvd bootable?
[05:12] <mobasher> walterj89_, i got it ..hahaha dude it's wicked..lol
[05:12] <sarai> is there any fan control app for ubuntu ?
[05:12] <mobasher> walterj89_, connected to my work pc lmo
[05:12] <white_magic> itsux2bu: no, but you can use a live boot disc to install it

[05:13] <Zelozelos> any idea why my wireless keeps getting disconnected, its not the modem/router its runnin all defaults/dosent doit on any other system cept this one
[05:13] <isaac_> you trying to network both computer

[05:14] <dpac_> white_magic: I don't understand what's wrong. It should've worked. What's the error you're getting?
[05:14] <walterj89_> spartan117,  I guess.  I'm not 100% sure how it works because I never use it... and I'm not in a 'proper' irc client

[05:15] <itsux2bu> i'm trying to create a tri-boot computer.. Windows/ubuntu/OS X. i need a boot loader that knows all 3. i need a boot loader that can be booted from a cd/dvd in case of trouble. i was hoping to fine a graphical based one.. i'm debating between  Acronis Disk Director and Grub2, grub2 being free and Acronis Disk Director being $30..
[05:15] <walterj89_> hmm automated message for apache... interesting
[05:16] <white_magic> dpac, pfifo, that was my pastebin..
[05:16] <white_magic> im gonna reboot & see if i get any errors
[05:16] <walterj89_> itsux2bu  I know the windows and linux boot loaders all allow extra OS's to be added
[05:16] <spartan117> walter89_ : om don't worry, tank you anyway
[05:17] <neil_d> I am having trouble with vnc :(   I have two remote computers... one running 8.04 and another 10.04 ... I am trying to get a remote login on the new one.  But all I get is an 'X' pointer with no background :( ... I have the same setup in /etc/inet.conf ... what am I doing wrong?
[05:17] <walterj89_> itsu2bu I can't say anything about OSX but I'm sure it will be the same story
[05:17] <mobasher> vbox, sudo apt-get install apache
[05:17] <pfifo> white_magic, no problems there, you may have run grub-install incorrctly
[05:17] <white_magic> eh??
[05:17] <white_magic> how so?
[05:17] <pfifo> white_magic, what was the command you issued?
[05:17] <white_magic> anyway, just booted.. or attempted to, and i'm in grub commandline now
[05:17] <white_magic> sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda
[05:17] <walterj89_> niel_d   background isnt always desplayed by default...
[05:18] <fi> neil_d -> u need to define a start file
[05:18] <pfifo> white_magic, what was the mount command?
[05:18] <itsux2bu> does O'reily publish a Grub2 book?
[05:18] <white_magic> ohhh, 1 sec
[05:18] <neil_d> fi: do you know how?
[05:18] <white_magic> it was something like 'sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt'
[05:18] <white_magic> pretty sure that was it
[05:18] <itsux2bu> hmm.. i'll go research that..
[05:18] <pfifo> white_magic, did you create agrub.cfg file?
[05:18] <fi> neil-d -> the remote machine starts a new session but you must define a startx command , one sec
[05:19] <white_magic> no.. should i have?
[05:19] <itsux2bu> maybe the deciding factor will be books published for boot managers
[05:19] <pfifo> white_magic, yes, thats the problem
[05:19] <kraut> moin
[05:19] <gary_inNYC> is there something wrong with Gwibber?  it doesn't receive tweets anymore
[05:19] <white_magic> so that is not done automatically by grub-install?
[05:19] <pfifo> white_magic, nope, it assumes nothing
[05:20] <walterj89_> gary_inNYC  twitter did just change their authentication method... might have something to do with that
[05:20] <gary_inNYC> walterj89: thanks
[05:20] <white_magic> pfifo: well, how do i install grub.cfg then?
[05:20] <fi> neil-d -> do you want to start-a-new-session on remote machine _or_ use an _existing_ session ?
[05:20] <dpac_> pfifo: IMHO, that should've worked. I've done that several times without creating grub.cfg
[05:20] <pfifo> white_magic, google for an example grub.cfg and copypasta it then edit for your system
[05:21] <sarai> does anyone knows whats the app that comes in ubuntu rmx to control de fan ?
[05:21] <pfifo> dpac_, you may have already had a grub.cfg
[05:21] <white_magic> ah.. that makes me a sad panda
[05:21] <dpac_> white_magic: http://goo.gl/ymOw
[05:21] <white_magic> so i'm not sure what the point of running grub-install then was
[05:22] <white_magic> dpac_: that guide look great, thanks
[05:22] <pfifo> white_magic, to fix the mbr and install all the modules
[05:22] <dpac_> white_magic: thats an alternate way of installing grub. That might work for you
[05:22] <dpac_> pfifo: Ahh, ok. That explains it.
[05:22] <neil_d> fi: I thought xstartup files are only used when connecting as a particular user.. I am trying to get vnc to ask for a user/password with the normal login widow.
[05:23] <lolmac> is there any method i could search like this in ubuntu? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P75U8biPD-g , real time indexing, something that i could find a file almost instantly in 3000gb of files, that updates the filenames database automatically?
[05:23] <maco> lolmac: well there's the locate command...
[05:23] <dpac_> lolmac: locate command does that
[05:23] <maco> lolmac: i think updatedb is only set to run like once a week, but you can set it to run more often
[05:23] <vbox> name of the Ubuntu Remix fans application?
[05:23] <dpac_> lolmac: you'll occasionally have to run updatedb to update its database
[05:24] <fi> neil-d -> there is one vnc , I think it is x11vnc (or something) which connects to _existing_ session; vnc default starts a _new_ session -> read this , it should do it : http://www.go2linux.org/secure-vnc-over-ssh

[05:27] <Jon5000> Hello. I want to tether my blackberry to my Lucid box and access the internet via my phone's AT+T 3G network. I cannot seem to get the appropriate files. Trick is, I don't have any other access to the net when this is booted in linux (but its dual boot and I can get online using win7). Care to engage?

[05:39] <Cognitive> walterj98_: In my opinion and from a user perspective everything.
[05:39] <mickster04> sarai: what do you mean too slow?
[05:39] <sarai> i mean i think is too slow
[05:39] <walterj89_> ratdog  , sorry i have no idea
[05:39] <valbaca> pfifo, there is no IPv3
[05:39] <sarai> is hot now
[05:39] <ratdog> ty anyhow
[05:40] <walterj89_> ratdog  where is that coming from?
[05:40] <neil_d> with 10.04 how do I enable xdmcp so gdm will listen to port 177?
[05:40] <white_magic> pfifo: so i went through dpac_'s linked tutorial, and I most definitely have a grub.cfg.. yet i still get grub commandline when i boot
[05:40] <white_magic> not sure how to proceed at this point
[05:40] <Loshki> pfifo: oddest question of the week: why would you even thing of wanting such a thing?
[05:40] <dpac_> white_magic: It seems like a disk issue to me. Try fsck to check your disk for errors.
[05:40] <mickster04> sarai: what are you using?
[05:41] <pfifo> my IPv4 is broken and my ISP dosent support v6 so i want version 3 just so i can get on the internet and update a few pacages.
[05:41] <valbaca> !ipv6 | pfifo
[05:41] <sarai> mi using ubuntu 10.4 LTS Lucid and i just install
[05:41] <walterj89_> IPv3  seriously?  IPv4 is old enough...  although I have seen a linux box commicate with just mac address's
[05:41] <Loshki> ratdog: that's nasty. How did you get that error to manifest?
[05:41] <white_magic> wait, i didn't run apt-get install grub & update-grub.. but i thought it would be enough if i ran grub-install & made sure that grub.cfg was there
[05:41] <sinman> I have a quick question on virtual desktops. How can I give each desktop their own background and not share the same background?
[05:41] <mickster04> pfifo: there is no v3
[05:41] <pfifo> then what about v2?
[05:42] <valbaca> pfifo, there's only ipv4 and ipv6
[05:42] <walterj89_> pfifo... lol  IPv4 is the only one that will work
[05:42] <white_magic> or wait, i think the tutorial intends for me to use apt-get install grub & update-grub after i get commandline access to my ubuntu install
[05:42] <mickster04> pfifo: Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) is the fourth revision in the development of the Internet Protocol (IP) and it is the first version of the protocol to be widely deployed.
[05:42] <walterj89_> IPv2  was like... the 70's 80's  when there were about 10 computers bein connected
[05:42] <Loshki> pfifo: Anything except ipv4 isn't gonna happen. But maybe we can fix your broken ipv4. What exactly do you mean by 'broken'....
[05:42] <pfifo> but it dosent work so i need version 3 or 2, just for a little bit though
[05:42] <mickster04> pfifo: neither will work
[05:43] <dpac_> white_magic: Well, you should've tried apt-get install grub. That would've freshly installed the grub. No need to upgrade it to grub2 yet. Just make sure you can boot into your ubuntu and you can upgrade to grub2 later on.
[05:43] <white_magic> ok
[05:43] <walterj89_> pfofp   I would love to see ipv2 or 3 working.. just for kicks
[05:43] <white_magic> i'll try this again
[05:43] <dpac_> pfifo: Why don't you try to fix your ipv4
[05:44] <pfifo> I mean my IPv4 just sits on the couch all day and wants more money.
[05:44]  * Loshki wonders if pfifo is trolling?
[05:44] <sinman> how can I get each virtual desktop to have a different background?
[05:44] <walterj89_> pfofp... if you really really wanted to,  you can maybe connect to your router by mac address, and it will do all the IPv4 communicating.. but that is a very very big maybe
[05:45] <mickster04> walterj89_: who are you talking to?
[05:45] <dpac_> pfifo: Well, its computer. Everything is virtually fixable.
[05:45] <mickster04> pfifo: ipv4 works fine...
[05:45] <walterj89_> mickster04  -> pfifo  but I'm typing his name wrong... and mostly irrelivant info
[05:46] <mickster04> !tab | walterj89_
[05:46] <pfifo> dpac_, no the ipv4 chip on my network card fell off
[05:46] <walterj89_> now what is !tab....
[05:46] <mickster04> pfifo: then your network card won't work at all...
[05:46] <walterj89_> !tab
[05:46] <mickster04> walterj89_: the tab key?
[05:46] <Guest29705> dpac_ do you know what's going on with my computer?
[05:47] <walterj89_> !tab | mickster04
[05:47] <dmex> walterj89_ please stop.
[05:47] <mickster04> walterj89_: what are you doing?
[05:47] <Loshki> walterj89_: <tab> is probably the single most useful in your irc client...
[05:47] <dpac_> Guest29705: Did you try the kill command I gave you?
[05:47] <Loshki> walterj89_: <tab> is probably the single most useful *key* in your irc client...
[05:47] <walterj89_> ya... i see that now
[05:47] <Guest29705> yeah
[05:47] <Guest29705> it just went to a new line
[05:47] <mickster04> Guest29705: thats fine, the kill command will do that
[05:47] <Guest29705> same as the sudo fuser...
[05:48] <dpac_> dpac_: try sudo apt-get install -f
[05:48] <dpac_> Guest29705:  try sudo apt-get install -f . It should work without errors this time.

[05:58] <valbaca> incognito, for non-LTS releases the sever support isn't longer (I think)
[05:58] <mickster04> incognito: 3 years i think, 10.04 is an LTS
[05:58] <sarai> i have to get it out my lap
[05:58] <Loshki> pfifo: I recall reading some article somewhere that dissed debian for not having bsd-type jails, claiming that debian
[05:58] <Blue1> mickster04: that sounds about right...
[05:58] <jp_> how can i increase the space of my hard drive when i used wibu
[05:58] <mickster04> sarai: well if you make it do lots it will get warm, if its an old laptop, dust and fluff will stop the airflow being so good
[05:58] <sarai> i just installed ubuntu 3 days ago,and switch to Ubuntu 10.4 LTS Lucid
[05:59] <sarai> it is not old
[05:59] <mickster04> jp_: you can't, a hard drive is a size and thats it:p
[05:59] <dpac_> Guest29705: Thats because the application remains there only until the sound is played. As soon as the sound is stopped, the program disappears from the list
[05:59] <mickster04> sarai: the laptop may be
[05:59] <sarai> and it has a dual core AMD
[05:59] <Loshki> pfifo: claiming that debian's support for 'jails' was not nearly as good...
[05:59] <incognito> wouldn't that mean that 9.04 would expire on 10/23/12
[05:59] <Blue1> incognito: no it wasn't an lts release
[05:59] <valbaca> incognito, 9.04 is not an LTS
[05:59] <mickster04> incognito: no
[05:59] <jp_> its a 500GB and it says only 10.00 GB Avaliable
[06:00] <mickster04> jp_:  it'll be full
[06:00] <jp_> A New drive i purchase 2 hours ago?
[06:00] <Blue1> jp_: yues they do that.
[06:00] <valbaca> it has nice pictures: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ubuntu_releases
[06:00] <incognito> when is the last LTS
[06:00] <Blue1> jp_: do a df
[06:00] <valbaca> incognito, 10.04 is an LTS
[06:00] <dpac_> incognito: 10.04
[06:00] <jp_> Im using dual boot with win7 and used the thing so that i can dual boot from two drives
[06:00] <neil_d> snap
[06:00] <pfifo> Loshki, Im really not too experienced with them, Its been a long time since i even looked into it. I definatly don have any BSD experience so comparing is impossible
[06:01] <Karen_m> valbaca, LTS is what?
[06:01] <Sakara> have just upgraded from ubuntu 8.10 to 10.04 and X has stopped working. it starts up and doesnt regiester mouse or keyboard events. not even al-ctrl-del works. any ideas?
[06:01] <incognito> sorry, I meant to ask when was the last LTS before 10.04
[06:01] <Anas> same promblem jp_
[06:01] <Anas> i have 500 gb hard
[06:01] <valbaca> Karen_m, LTS = long term support = 3 years of updates for desktop, 5 years for servers
[06:01] <Loshki> pfifo: ok
[06:01] <sarai> sakara run sudo apt-get install -f
[06:01] <dpac_> incognito: 8.04
[06:01] <valbaca> incognito, 8.04
[06:01] <sarai> it install dependencies
[06:01] <Blue1> Sakara: backup /home/ and /etc/ and do a fresh install.
[06:01] <jp_> i used wibu i just want to extend the partition how would i do that?
[06:01] <Anas> and i have installed ubuntu 10
[06:01] <pfifo> incognito, 8.04
[06:02] <Sakara> sarai: nothing out of the ordinary
[06:02] <Blue1> Sakara: I've had problems (like grub issues, etc) with upgrades - it's why I don't do that path anymore
[06:02] <Anas> then the hard less size to 250 GB
[06:02] <incognito> so 8.04 will be supported for another year??
[06:02] <Anas> any one help ?
[06:02] <Sakara> Blue1: I would like to avoid it if possible
[06:02] <Guest29705> dpac_: yeah but it only gets in about 10 seconds of a song or video with any program
[06:02] <sarai> oki have fan issues
[06:02] <sarai> in a  sony vaio
[06:02] <Sakara> too many files to move
[06:02] <valbaca> incognito, please go to the link I posted earlier
[06:02] <sarai> is so hot i can cook on it
[06:02] <Blue1> Anas: sorry that is the only solution I know of....
[06:03] <dpac_> dpac_: What program are you using for playing media files?
[06:03] <sarai> fan is kind of slow
[06:03] <dpac_> Guest29705:   What program are you using for playing media files?
[06:03] <pfifo> incognito, i doubt they will just turnkey support off for 8.04.
[06:03] <Anas> what is the solution ?
[06:03] <Anas> plz tell me
[06:03] <sarai> it seem is not a solution for it in ubuntu
[06:03] <incognito> valbaca sorry, I didn't notice it, I'll go back and look
[06:03] <sarai> it had Vista as factory OS
[06:03] <Blue1> Anas: backup /home/ and /etc/ and then do a fresh install of 10.04 followed by a restore
[06:03] <krishnandu> Hey guys how to install java..?? I used sun-java6-jre sunjava6-jdk sunjava6-plugin. Whats wrong..?? I used this command many times before. But not working now
[06:03] <walterj89_> sarai  quick google seach came up with this.. not sure if its a solution
[06:03] <walterj89_> sarai http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-238566.html
[06:04] <Karen_m> Is there a way to say ; hey apt, compute what is in base and report what packages I installed ...  I want to reinstall ubuntu (i went to maverick too early)
[06:04] <Guest29705> I use mplayer for videos, exaile for music (trying to get xmms2 to install and run) and chromium for pandora and youtube
[06:04] <Anas> the partition is decreases
[06:04] <valbaca> Everything you need to know about releases, LTS, and support dates: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ubuntu_releases
[06:04] <krishnandu> Hey guys how to install java..?? I used sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-plugin. Whats wrong..?? I used this command many times before. But not working now
[06:04] <Blue1> Anas: not fastest way, but it avoids a lot of problems and issues like you are having with x
[06:04] <jp_> so how would i set up a dual boot from two drives?
[06:04] <Guest29705> opps dpac_:  I use mplayer for videos, exaile for music (trying to get xmms2 to install and run) and chromium for pandora and youtube
[06:04] <Karen_m> jp, install windows on one, ubuntu on another, after you're done...   sudo update-grub
[06:04] <walterj89_> jp dual boot from 2 drives isnt too bad
[06:05] <Anas> mean i should to backup ?
[06:05] <gunerh> hullo
[06:05] <dmex> Karen_m: you can backup apt.
[06:05] <jp_> I have windows on a 80GB drive and ubuntu on a 500GB drive
[06:05] <Karen_m> dmex, how?
[06:05] <sarai> i get this with sensors command in terminal
[06:05] <Anas> can i marege the partion
[06:05] <sarai> sarai@sarai-laptop:~$ sensors
[06:05] <sarai> acpitz-virtual-0
[06:05] <sarai> Adapter: Virtual device
[06:05] <sarai> temp1:       +64.0°C  (crit = +94.0°C)
[06:05] <FloodBot1> sarai: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:05] <dpac_> Guest29705: Thats weird. Only few seconds of audio plays, you mean, doesn't matter which player you use?
[06:05] <jp_> if i install one then the other it won't give me the option to dualboot when i power up
[06:05] <Anas> my english is so bad
[06:05] <Guest29705> any program and it gets about 10-20 seconds of audio and then goes silent
[06:05] <walterj89_> jp  depending on what bootloader uyou want to use,  that part is well documented everywhere
[06:05] <krishnandu> Hey guys how to install java..?? I used sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-plugin. Whats wrong..?? I used this command many times before. But not working now
[06:06] <jp_> because i had win7 installed then on the 500gb drive i installed 10.04 and it wouldn't let me choose what OS to boot from
[06:06] <Guest29705> dpac_: any program and it gets about 10-20 seconds of audio and then goes silent
[06:06] <Sakara> The only error in the Xorg log is "Intel(0): Failed to initialize kernel memory manager" not sure if this is helpful to diagnose why x is unresponsive after an upgrade
[06:06] <bastidrazor> !java | krishnandu ::its in the partner repo
[06:06] <dpac_> Guest29705: Its really weird. It should've been either no sound or full sound.
[06:06] <krishnandu> bastidrazor, thanks..!!
[06:07] <holocene> what is main reason for backing up /etc?
[06:07] <walterj89_> jp the one different part you may find is that you may need to go into your bios and select your 500gb hard drive with ubuntu if you want to use that bootloader,  or select the windows harddrive if  you want to use the windows bootloader
[06:07] <bastidrazor> krishnandu: you're welcome
[06:07] <valbaca> holocene, /etc = configuration files
[06:07] <krishnandu> bastidrazor, But I'm using the same, and that is not working
[06:07] <Guest29705> dpac_: is there a way I can test ALSA or the hardware card itself?
[06:07] <Anas> i repeat my problem : i have installed the ubuntu 10.4 on the external hard(500 GB) and the boot faild from the hd and the size decrease to 250 GB
[06:08] <bastidrazor> krishnandu: did you enable the partner repository?
[06:08] <krishnandu> nope. How to do that..??
[06:08] <bastidrazor> !partner | krishnandu
[06:08] <krishnandu> bastidrazor, nope. how to do that..??
[06:08] <holocene> valbaca, so if I back up home, clean install 10.10 then I can restore /etc?
[06:08] <Anas> in ubuntu i can see 2 partion of the external hard
[06:08] <valbaca> !partner | krishnandu
[06:08] <sarai> i had a 500 GB Drive and install ubuntu on it and is ok
[06:08] <walterj89_> sarai you should take note that some laptops actually do run at those temps normally..  also if you have bios access you may be able to set fan speeds there
[06:08] <white_magic> dpac_, i'm trying to run apt-get install grub, but tells me that it's unable to fetch some archives and to try running apg-get update'
[06:08] <white_magic> well it's unable to run apt-get update
[06:09] <Anas> any one help me pleaz
[06:09] <white_magic> 'no address associated with hostname'..
[06:09] <sarai> how i get bios acces
[06:09] <sarai> at boot
[06:09] <valbaca> holocene, what version are you updated from?
[06:09] <holocene> lucid
[06:09] <valbaca> s/updated/updating
[06:09] <white_magic> sarai: it depends on your system, but it's usually either DELETE or F2
[06:09] <white_magic> or F8
[06:09] <dpac_> white_magic: I suspect there's no internet connection on that system
[06:09] <white_magic> dpac_ there is
[06:09] <sarai> ok i try that
[06:09] <white_magic> but when i ran terminal, it wasn't connected.. could that be at fault?
[06:09] <sarai> thanks
[06:09] <krishnandu> bastidrazor, valbaca should I copy paste that...??
[06:09] <sarai> i see now
[06:09] <white_magic> no problem
[06:09] <sarai> BRB with details on that
[06:09] <dpac_> Guest29705: Does the sound plays for few seconds if you quit and reopen the media file?
[06:10] <bastidrazor> krishnandu: you could yes. exclude the  little arrows
[06:10] <valbaca> holocene, you should just be able to sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -d -s. no clean-install needed
[06:10] <holocene> valbaca, understood, but many people don't advise t hat.
[06:10] <krishnandu> bastidrazor, ya I did that
[06:10] <krishnandu> bastidrazor, sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner
[06:10] <incognito> can someone give me the address where I can download 8.04 server edition?
[06:10] <Guest29705> dpac_: yeah.
[06:10] <walterj89_> Where is Java installed in 10.04 now?
[06:10] <white_magic> dpac_: do you think it would make a difference if i first ran terminal before i had connected to the internet?
[06:11] <bastidrazor> krishnandu: sudo apt-get update  :to update your package list.. then install
[06:11] <incognito> http download\
[06:11] <valbaca> holocene, it's the best way to conserve your settings. I would recommend waiting until 10/10/10
[06:11] <krishnandu> bastidrazor, how to remove an repository...??
[06:11] <dpac_> white_magic: Well, I am clueless about that one. You could try copying deb file from another computer and installing it.
[06:11] <dpac_> white_magic: No that wouldn't matter.
[06:11] <valbaca> holocene, otherwise, #ubuntu+1 will be able to provide more assistance
[06:11] <white_magic> WOAH.. everyone check out google homepage RIGHT NOW
[06:11] <holocene> valbaca, Ok. I do have maverick working in virtualbox ok .
[06:11] <krishnandu> bastidrazor, BTW I've copied the " too
[06:11] <valbaca> white_magic, looks normal to mee
[06:11] <dpac_> Guest29705: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound
[06:12] <dpac_> Guest29705: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[06:12] <white_magic> i'm seeing a crazy script that google must be running
[06:12] <krishnandu> bastidrazor, yupieee..!! Done :)
[06:12] <white_magic> you might have scripts disabled
[06:12] <white_magic> valbaca: hover over the google logo
[06:12] <pfifo> google is bieng prejudice to colorblind people, i say we file a class-action
[06:12] <cfedde> stealing my cpu power too.
[06:12] <walterj89_> white_magic normal to me,  in both .ca and .com
[06:13] <white_magic> hmm i wonder if i need to make a screenshot to prove that google has changed something!
[06:13] <jp_> so there would be no way of extending my partition size because i used wubi and the highest it would let me go was 30GB instead of 500GB
[06:13] <bastidrazor> incognito: http://releases.ubuntu.com/hardy/
[06:13] <valbaca> jp_, wubi uses FAT32, that limits it to 32GB
[06:13] <walterj89_> white_magic i see an american flag now... but under the search bar
[06:14] <jp_> oh
[06:14] <Guest29705> dpac_: thanks. looks like that might help
[06:14] <jp_> white_magic: are you talking about those moving things the red and blue?
[06:14] <golddragon24> white_magic:  Whoah.  That's cool.  Any idea what it's for?
[06:14] <dpac_> white_magic: Do that. Its seems fine at my end too.
[06:15] <valbaca> !offtopic :)
[06:15] <white_magic> no idea
[06:15] <jp_> valbaca, so how would i extend the partition or create a dual boot without having to reformat my win7 drive
[06:15] <white_magic> jp_ yea
[06:15] <pfifo> white_magic, google changes their homepage more often than i change my underwear, this is nothing special
[06:16] <white_magic> well i thought it was pretty cool
[06:16] <incognito> bastidrazor thanks a bunch. I just can't get 10.04 server to work to work, so to save time, I'm going to go back to 8.04 which is supported until April 2013
[06:16] <jp_> pfifo, EWWWWWW
[06:16] <walterj89_> white_magic  are you on the east coast?  its still sunday here
[06:16] <white_magic> right up there with the pacman game
[06:16] <white_magic> i'm on west coast
[06:16] <valbaca> jp_, you can uninstall wubi, use the Windows 7 Drive thingy to shrink the partition, then dual-boot Ubuntu and WIndows 7
[06:16] <mneptok> pfifo: please stay on-topic
[06:16] <bastidrazor> incognito: understood. best of luck
[06:16] <jp_> valbaca, Im using two drives instead of one
[06:17] <valbaca> the same steps should apply
[06:17] <Cognisance> You are all amazing and thank you all for your time and effort.
[06:17] <jp_> i had win7 on one drive and 10.04 on the other but when i would restart i wouldn't get the option to boot ubuntu. It would auto boot win7
[06:18] <sarai> guys i have a bios update but is a .exe file
[06:19] <sarai> how can i install it
[06:19] <sarai> with winw
[06:19] <sarai> wine
[06:19] <ectospasm> sarai: you probably need to boot DOS, and run it from there
[06:19] <white_magic> i'm trying to run 'sudo aptitude update' and it tells me 'err http [blah blah long url] \n Something wicked happened resoluving 'us.archive.ubuntu.com:http' (-5 - no address associated with hostname)'..... someone please explain
[06:19] <valbaca> sarai, that will have to be run with Windows. you run the risk of permenantly breaking your computer if you use wine
[06:20] <dpac_> jp_: Thats because there are separate bootloaders for both device. You need to select the boot device from the BIOS
[06:20] <valbaca> jp_, This is written for 9.10, but nothing should be different for 10.04 http://lifehacker.com/5403100/dual+boot-windows-7-and-ubuntu-in-perfect-harmony
[06:20] <ectospasm> sarai: http://www.linuxinsight.com/how-to-flash-motherboard-bios-from-linux-no-dos-windows-no-floppy-drive.html
[06:20] <sarai> can i boot a portable windows and install from there
[06:20] <sarai> i have ubuntu installed actually but my fan is an issue
[06:20] <valbaca> sarai, most likely. still risky imo
[06:20] <ectospasm> sarai: see my link
[06:21] <ectospasm> valbaca: it's SOP, assuming you don't do it in Wine
[06:21] <valbaca> SOP?
[06:21] <white_magic> anyone?
[06:21] <ectospasm> valbaca: Standard Operatin Procedure
[06:22] <valbaca> ectospasm, gotcha
[06:22] <ectospasm> white_magic: are you getting name resolution with ping?
[06:22] <white_magic> ectospasm: i think the terminal works a bit differently than i previously thought
[06:22] <white_magic> when i launched a new window, it all works
[06:22] <white_magic> the old one was launched before i had connected to the internet..
[06:22] <nooo> Anybody know what the current google logo is for?
[06:23] <falmog> Hellooooo =]
[06:23] <ectospasm> nooo: does art need a purpose?
[06:23] <white_magic> for awesomeness
[06:23] <walterj89_> nooo Labour Day
[06:23] <white_magic> lollllllll
[06:23] <valbaca> !offtopic
[06:23] <white_magic> valbaca: we're only human
[06:23] <coolguy> o yea
[06:23] <white_magic> but i digress
[06:23] <coolguy> sup cool people
[06:23] <valbaca> ubottu isn't :)
[06:23] <white_magic> haha
[06:23] <coolguy> ok nvm.
[06:24] <ectospasm> white_magic: that's strange.  I'd have to know more about the nonworking environment to know why it didn't work.  Typically the shell can have a network connection be enabled after its inception...
[06:24] <white_magic> maybe they resolved this in newer ubuntu versions
[06:24] <white_magic> this is 9.04 live boot
[06:25] <walterj89_> Java Segmentation Fault anyone?  I'm having an issue running a .jar file I need,  reinstalled java serveral times
[06:25] <ectospasm> white_magic: that still doesn't seem right, the net connection is independent of the shell.  Once the network is enabled, the shell should be able to resolve hostnames
[06:26] <Blue1> walterj89_: tried different browsers?
[06:26] <ectospasm> walterj89_: maybe the jar is corrupt?
[06:27] <walterj89_> Blue1  not using it ina browser,  command line
[06:27] <ectospasm> white_magic: unless you can see a difference in executions of "env" between the working and nonworking windows, I'm stumped
[06:27] <Blue1> walterj89_: ah I've never done that...
[06:27] <Blue1> off topic:   when is a door not a door?  When it's ajar.
[06:27] <ectospasm> white_magic: but then again, I don't use the LiveCD much (last I checked, LVM isn't available using it)
[06:28] <walterj89_> ectospasm I dont think its corrupt.. or I hope it isnt,
[06:28] <ectospasm> walterj89_: does it work on another machine?
[06:28] <Blue1> walterj89_: yup what ectospasm suggested, or re-downloaded the file
[06:29] <white_magic> why is it that when i try running 'chroot /mnt/root' it tells me 'cant change root dir to /mnt/root: op. not permitted', but i was previously able to run it (in a previous terminal window which is now closed)?
[06:30] <white_magic> unless i'm in that root dir still.. how do i check which is my current root dir?
[06:30] <walterj89_> ectospasm I don't think its corrupted,  the problem seems to be when  I put in the commands I need
[06:30] <ectospasm> white_magic: is the old chroot still mounted?  I dunno, it's been a LOOONG time since I used chroot
[06:30] <white_magic> how do i check if it is mounted still?
[06:30] <j_r_d> Hey I made a custom command to run when a cd gets mounted but now I need to change it.....how to I do that? I tried going to file management but the option wasn't there
[06:30] <ectospasm> walterj89_: how do you know it's not corrupted?  Do you have a sum (MD5/SHA1/etc.) indicating its not?
[06:31] <ectospasm> white_magic: if mount can't tell you, I dunno
[06:31] <Guest29978> Running unbuntu 10.04 netbook remix. Sound output through headphone jack not working, but sound is fine through internal speakers. Any suggestions?
[06:31] <walterj89_> ectospasm  My thought is its for an older version of java,  but I'm haing problems with finding that
[06:31] <rafter> white magic are u using a live cd or usb
[06:31] <white_magic> live
[06:31] <white_magic> live cd
[06:31] <ectospasm> walterj89_: are you trying the official Oracle Java, or the IcedTea/OpenJDK stuff?
[06:32] <white_magic> i'm trying to run 'apt-get install grub' and it tells me couldn't get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock, is another process using it... but other terminal windows are closed
[06:32] <i_is_broke> Guest29978, try running alsaconf and see if any thing is muted.
[06:32] <Guest29978> will try and report back
[06:32] <walterj89_> ecectospasm  whatever is in the sotware centre
[06:32] <oracle> the new oracle java?
[06:32] <oracle> Well, i be dam
[06:33]  * white_magic is still desparate
[06:33] <ectospasm> walterj89_: that isn't specific enough of an answer.  What's the package name of the Java that you have installed?
[06:33] <alkemann> im having really big issues getting this Nvidia X Server settings to behave. Changing setups I get this "apply what is possible" bull, but im still not able to get the monitors up. and also it lacks the option to turn the monitor 90 degrees. Is there a better option to use ?
[06:34] <ectospasm> oracle: well, Oracle bought Sun, so now it's Oracle Java (-;
[06:34] <pfifo> is there a list of alternate usage of ssh with pratical examples? A tips and tricks, or cheat sheet type of deal would be ok too.
[06:34] <walterj89_> ectospasm  Sun Java Runtime (jre 6)
[06:34] <ectospasm> walterj89_: what is the source of the jar?
[06:34] <walterj89_> ectospasm  and the develpment kit as well
[06:34] <Guest29978> I feel like a noob. What command do I need to enter to run alsaconf
[06:34] <Guest29705> dpac_: in the troubleshooter it says to use command: $ find /lib/modules/`uname -r` | grep snd
[06:34] <alkemann> or how do i restart the x server in lucid?
[06:34] <jussi> Guest29705: asoundconf I guess
[06:34] <Blue1> alkemann: I don't use the nvidia settings just what comes stock - seems like booku problems if I use the nvidia x server settings
[06:34] <jussi> err
[06:35] <jussi> Guest29978: ^^
[06:35] <white_magic> i think i know the problem - i closed the last terminal session abruptly and the file is still locked.. now how do i unlock it manually?
[06:35] <alkemann> Blue1: how do i remove the nvidia then?
[06:35] <walterj89_> ectospasm  the jar comes from 3m for calibrating a touchscreen,  as to what version the source wants.. i'm not 100% sure how to check
[06:35] <jussi> white_magic: which file?
[06:35] <oracle> ectospasm, they close the source yet?
[06:35] <Blue1> alkemann: what card do you have?  hint:  lspci | grep VGA
[06:35] <jussi> !aptfix | white_magic
[06:35] <ectospasm> oracle: not exactly, but yes.
[06:36] <white_magic> aha
[06:36] <Guest29705> dpac_: what about the | grep snd?
[06:36] <ectospasm> oracle: actually, I have no idea about Java, I just know that Solaris ain't as open as it used to be
[06:36] <ectospasm> !ot
[06:36] <alkemann> Blue1:  GA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Quadro NVS 140M (rev a1)
[06:36] <oracle> ectospasm, that's okay; no one was using java before
[06:36] <alkemann> VGA*
[06:36] <ectospasm> !ot | oracle
[06:37] <Blue1> alkemann: sounds really new, or really old.
[06:37] <Guest29978> i_is_broke, how do I run alsaconf
[06:37] <oracle> ectospasm, i chat in ##club-ubuntu
[06:37] <alkemann> Blue1: http://reviews.cnet.com/laptops/lenovo-thinkpad-t61/4505-3121_7-32442903.html
[06:38] <Blue1> alkemann: do you know what version of the driver you are using?
[06:38] <alkemann> Blue1: no. company pc, i didnt install (and not a unix expert)
[06:38] <ectospasm> alkemann: also note that some (older) nVidia cards can't make use of the latest drivers
[06:38] <Blue1> alkemann: try this:  grep -i glx /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:39] <Guest29978> asoundconf did nothing
[06:39] <i_is_broke> guest29978, hold on easier if you just google it yourself...alsaconfig in ubuntu
[06:39] <alkemann> Blue1: http://pastebin.com/HD14FwwV
[06:39] <Blue1> alkemann: you are looking for a line like:  (II) NVIDIA GLX Module  195.36.24  Thu Apr 22 19:52:00 PDT 2010
[06:40] <alkemann> Blue1: heh yea exactly that
[06:40] <Blue1> alkemann: tht is the lastest driver...
[06:40] <j_r_d> Hey I made a custom command to run when a cd gets mounted but now I need to change it.....how do I do that? I tried going to file management but the option wasn't there.
[06:41] <Blue1> alkemann: what are you trying to do/set?
[06:41] <pfifo> whats the best compressin method for mixed data?
[06:41] <alkemann> Blue1: two monitors connected to my docking station
[06:41] <pfifo> 7z? bzip?
[06:41] <Blue1> alkemann: ah that is beyond my knowledge level - sorry.
[06:41] <dpac_> Guest29705: Sorry, I was away.
[06:41] <alkemann> Blue1: only get the one. i see both in the config, but applying i am told i cant, because settings have changed. no kidding. that's why I want to apply
[06:42] <dpac_> Guest29705: That | grep snd is part of command.
[06:42] <Blue1> alkemann: I've no experience with dual monitor, sorry.
[06:42] <Guest29705> dpac_: all good. how do I make that character?
[06:42] <alkemann> Blue1: but how do i restart the x server?
[06:42] <Blue1> alkemann: sudo service gdm restart
[06:43] <alkemann> tried ctrl alt backspace and f7
[06:43] <white_magic> alright, WINWDOWS TO THE RESCUE
[06:43] <Guest29705> dpac_: and i'm not sure what to put for 'uname -r'
[06:43] <white_magic> my linux skillws have failed me one time too many
[06:43] <white_magic> i can't even type anymore..
[06:43] <dpac_> Guest29705: Shift + \
[06:44] <Blue1> white_magic: today I start my 6th year with linux - -someday I'll be a weenie
[06:44] <dpac_> Guest29705: Put `` around uname -r
[06:44] <j_r_d> Any ideas??
[06:44] <white_magic> hahaha.  How can I fix this?
[06:45] <white_magic> wonder what kind of space-age hardware you go there that's too new
[06:45] <Blue1> white_magic: so no software drivers for something tht new in xp -- it came with mmmVista but I hated that beyond belief
[06:45] <Flynsarmy> err, useradd -d
[06:46] <walterj89_> Blue1  too new is hard to do...  good to see though  xp was the most hackible thing ever
[06:46] <white_magic> Blue1: well, tbh, win7 is everything vista should have been and vista shouldn't be the only thing people think of when they hear 'windows'
[06:46] <Blue1> walterj89_: nah, not as bad was win 98
[06:46] <Blue1> white_magic: I think the "best" release of windows was NT 4.0
[06:47] <walterj89_> Blue1  win98  ah...  had a 95 I discoverd how to melt with a few lines of code
[06:47] <white_magic> Blue1: I wouldn't know
[06:47] <white_magic> i can say personally that win98 was a blue screen generator
[06:47] <white_magic> but xp has been very kind to me
[06:47] <Blue1> white_magic: I started m$ learning dos 2.11 and then later win 3.11
[06:47] <white_magic> oh wow
[06:49] <brandon420>  where is a good place to download themes for cairo dock?
[06:49] <gschwepp> brandon420: i would recommend asking google ;)
[06:49] <brandon420> i have.
[06:50] <brandon420> =/
[06:50] <p1oooop> hey guys...
[06:50] <p1oooop> I'm getting an error 13 on NFS
[06:50] <Avo> * is
[06:50] <white_magic> brandon420: then you don't have a good enough relationship with google
[06:50] <Avo> Avo is
[06:50] <p1oooop> I checked my /etc/exports file, it's fine
[06:50] <p1oooop> what other problems can I have?
[06:50] <brandon420> hahahaha. trust me, i love the google god, he just isnt giveing me these answers
[06:51] <p1oooop> brandon420: google god?
[06:51] <Avo> *is*
[06:51] <p1oooop> I've never heard of someone calling google a god
[06:51] <p1oooop> nor a complete entity
[06:51] <brandon420> hahah, he is the god of information
[06:51] <pLr> current god yes
[06:51] <gschwepp> me neither
[06:51] <p1oooop> more like a corperation...
[06:51] <p1oooop> it isn't all seeing yet ;)
[06:52]  * Avo is leaving
[06:52] <p1oooop> wait until the google internet crap really takes off.
[06:52] <p1oooop> and then wait until google goes down and every single file in their system disapears ;)
[06:52] <iluminator101> how do i see the processes in bootup instead of graphical boot?
[06:52] <alkemann> Blue1: the restart thing helped me out, but it seems to restart everything but the electricity :)
[06:52] <gschwepp> brandon420: in case google has no answer for cairo dock themes ... have a look at this http://www.glx-dock.org/mb_channellist.php
[06:52] <p1oooop> I like google, but it certainly isn't a god
[06:52] <white_magic> it is OUR god
[06:52] <alkemann> Blue1: still missing options in the settings, any idea if turning a monitor is even possible on ubuntu?
[06:53] <white_magic> it may not be YOUR god
[06:53] <p1oooop> so, anyone have an answer to my irking problem?
[06:53] <Blue1> alkemann: did you not ask how to restart x?
[06:53] <white_magic> but it's ours alright
[06:53] <p1oooop> white_magic: okay, that's agreeable.
[06:53] <pLr> every answer to everything is on google, is that not godlike?
[06:53] <gschwepp> iluminator101: think press f1 or esc while booting
[06:53] <AneZmk> Good morning...
[06:53] <brandon420> gschwepp, they have no answer either, its kinda dead in that channel.
[06:53] <alkemann> Blue1: yea cause that's what the server settings thing complained about
[06:54] <p1oooop> I didn't see anyone faced with a problem like this on google -_-
[06:54] <Blue1> alkemann: okay well that's how you do it.
[06:54] <gschwepp> pLr: google has suggestions for an hompage that maybe can  answer. no answer at all
[06:54] <alkemann> Blue1: ok thanks
[06:54] <gschwepp> brandon420: you should think about using it if there are no themes and no support in their own irc channel.
[06:55] <gschwepp> maybe vaporsoftware ;)
[06:56] <joshua__> Hi, I was wondering if anyone can give me a hand, my brother turned off his computer without shutting down. Now he cannot start up! It states that "No init found"???
[06:57] <brandon420> gschwepp, can you recommend another dock? that looks good visually?
[06:57] <white_magic> brandon420: look into rainmeter while you're at it
[06:57] <brandon420> white_magic, just installed conky
[06:58] <white_magic> aha
[06:59] <p1oooop> http://pastebin.com/X1fJV8sW here is my etc/exports file
[06:59] <gschwepp> brandon420: no im just used to my loveley console :) if i wanted a massiv blinking monitor i would buy a mac ;) (or windows 7 ) ...
[06:59] <brandon420> gschwepp, white_magic    http://imgur.com/0rw3F.jpg
[07:01] <dpac_> brandon420: Wow, the resolution is huge!
[07:01] <brandon420> yeah, dual monitors
[07:01] <brandon420> crts though. lmao.
[07:01] <stesind> hi
[07:01] <brandon420> hi
[07:02] <gschwepp> brandon420: this stuff in the right is nince. but why does it have to look like mac?
[07:02] <brandon420> gschwepp, how does it look like a mac? cause of my dock? and thats conky to the right.
[07:03] <stesind> I want to print using my Canon IP4000 on a 4x6 paper size, unfortunately I cannot select the paper size in the print dialog, fitting guterberg driver is installed
[07:03] <Blue1> gschwepp: we should have an "ask mr. shuttleworth" session sometime...
[07:03] <|Sacred|> I kinda like awn + stalonetray
[07:03] <gschwepp> Blue1: :)
[07:03] <gschwepp> brandon420: yeah wait im searching google for a nice picture of my screen ;)
[07:03] <stesind> is there a trick to be able to set paper size? it is only available in openoffice, gedit and the system wide printer settings
[07:04] <stesind> ?
[07:04] <brandon420> gschwepp, lol, searching google?

[07:12] <lolmac> Hello, doesn't locate command supports external HDs?
[07:14] <dpac_> lolmac: I think it doesn't. Unless you keep it connected all the time.
[07:14] <mneptok> lolmac: you'll need to run "sudo updatedb" with the external drive powered on and mounted before the locte database will know waht's on it
[07:14] <Flynsarmy> Hmm. I insatlled vsftpd and as mentioned here http://wiki.mediatemple.net/w/Setting_vsftpd_on_Ubuntu_9.10 it created an 'ftp' user. I set the password of that user with 'passwd ftp' however i still can't log in with FTP with un 'ftp' and the password specified. ideas?
[07:18] <sinner99> надо понять, какая команда запускает фотруну и тогда прописать её уже в свой файл настройки интерфейса bash.bashrc
[07:18] <lolmac404> mneptok: strange, i mounted it, and updated updatedb, but it still cannot find anything on the external hardrive
[07:18] <gschwepp> sinner99: maybe english?
[07:18] <sinner99> no
[07:19] <mneptok> !ru | sinner99
[07:20] <Guest29705> I got this error message: "pa_stream_writable_size() failed: Connection terminated"
[07:20] <dpac_> lolmac: sudo nano /etc/updatedb.conf  .. remove /media from PRUNEPATH
[07:21] <dpac_> lolmac404: sudo nano /etc/updatedb.conf  .. remove /media from PRUNEPATH .  I assume you have it mounted on /media/somename

[07:22] <AneZmk> Hello Can I enable USB on a VmWare using Xp to run unubntu 10.04?
[07:22] <AneZmk> ubuntu even
[07:22] <dpac_> lolmac: It should work. Remove /media from PRUNEPATH in /etc/updatedb.conf . Save the file and run sudo updatedb
[07:22] <mneptok> AneZmk: that question is better suited for a VMware or Windows IRC channel. your question is about those products, not Ubuntu.
[07:23] <dpac_> lolmac: Might take some time if harddrive is large.
[07:23] <iFvwm> hi, i found a stranger thing. when i "ls -l -A". i got:
[07:23] <iFvwm> -rw-r--r--  1 exp  exp   220 2006-09-19 23:41 .bash_logout
[07:23] <iFvwm> ??????????  ? ?    ?       ?                ? .gvfs
[07:23] <iFvwm> anybody know why
[07:23] <AneZmk> mneptok, ok, I'll try that :-)
[07:23] <dpac_> iFvwm: .gvfs is a special file required by linux
[07:23] <iFvwm> dpac_: yes, but why all attribute is ?
[07:24] <dpac_> iFvwm: required by GNOME to be specific.  It shows right permissions in mine
[07:25] <dpac_> iFvwm: stat .gvfs
[07:25] <iFvwm> # stat .gvfs
[07:26] <iFvwm> stat: cannot stat `.gvfs': Permission denied
[07:26] <dpac_> iFvwm: try using sudo
[07:26] <iFvwm> all filemanger can not show hidden files at home..
[07:26] <iFvwm> i had sudo su
[07:27] <iFvwm> root@eexp-laptop:/home/exp# stat .gvfs
[07:27] <iFvwm> stat: cannot stat `.gvfs': Permission denied
[07:27] <iFvwm> only after su, i can "ls -l -A"
[07:27] <dpac_> iFvwm: its inaccessible by root. Exit root and then try again
[07:27] <iFvwm> if i exit root. i can not execute ls -A
[07:28] <iFvwm> term is dead when i "ls -A"
[07:28] <dpac_> iFvwm: in root, it shows the same ??? as permissions in mine.
[07:28] <iFvwm> yes. and only root can see this.
[07:29] <dpac_> iFvwm: what are the permissions of your home directory stat /home/user
[07:29] <iFvwm> root@eexp-laptop:/home/exp# stat /home/exp/
[07:29] <iFvwm>   File: `/home/exp/'

[07:30] <tehan> any positive feedback on Ubuntu 10.10 beta?
[07:31] <offsense> anuone ever tried smuxi client?
[07:31] <valbaca> tehan, #ubuntu+1
[07:31] <dpac_> iFvwm: When you exit the root and try to ls -la /home/exp , what error do you get?
[07:31] <valbaca> offsense, using it now. it has better Ubuntu 10.04 integration than xchat. other than that, not revolutionary
[07:32] <iFvwm> the xterm is dead. dpac_ when i do this
[07:32] <tehan> i'm using smuxi
[07:32] <offsense> thx valbaca, would like to give it a try
[07:32] <Flynsarmy> Actually reinstalling 10.04 fixed several issues i was having. gnome-power-manager is no longer leaking like a sieve (although i removed my laptops battery so that might be the cause of that) and i can zoom on the external monitor with nvidia proprietry. that didn't used to work. maybe nvidia released updated drivers and ubuntu never notified me
[07:33] <iFvwm> dpac_: not often, but sometimes, this thing,,,come
[07:33] <iFvwm> last time is serval months age....
[07:33] <dpac_> iFvwm: whats the output of echo $TERM
[07:33] <iFvwm> xterm-color
[07:34] <dpac_> iFvwm: Quit the terminal and start another one.
[07:34] <iFvwm> gnome-terminal?
[07:34] <grayhane> How do I change which of two SATA drives is the master ?
[07:34] <dpac_> iFvwm: Yes.
[07:35] <dpac_> grayhane: There should be jumper settings to do that
[07:35] <iFvwm> ls -l -A ..  dead
[07:35] <grayhane> On SATA droves
[07:36] <iFvwm> perhaps is gvfs' bug?
[07:36] <dpac_> grayhane: just change the boot device priority in BIOS
[07:36] <grayhane> dpac_, thanks,
[07:36] <dpac_> iFvwm: it has nothing to do with gvfs in my opinion
[07:36] <grayhane> makes perfect sense
[07:37] <iFvwm> i had reboot once... perhaps poweroff once...
[07:37] <dpac_> iFvwm: I didn't get you. You mean you will do that or you already did that?
[07:38] <Kills> any1 out there who knows how to deal with laptop sound quality problems?
[07:38] <Guest29705> dpac_: that troubleshooter didn't really help
[07:39] <iFvwm> dpac_: do not mind this. i would check it after next poweroff.
[07:39] <sandra_> hello
[07:39] <sandra_> can somebody help me please
[07:39] <dpac_> iFvwm: Sure. I have got to go anyways. Good luck.
[07:39] <sandra_> i cant connect to the internet
[07:39] <Guest29705> dpac_: I did find out that VLC player is the only program that will run uninterrupted
[07:39] <iFvwm> dpac_: :D thanks
[07:40] <sandra_> hello?
[07:40] <sandra_> is there someone who can help me?
[07:40] <Ashthor> we are currently reading your mind
[07:40] <Ashthor> as you didn't ask your question in ONE line, as is preferred
[07:40] <Ashthor> please wait
[07:40] <dpac_> Guest29705: Seems like its something to do with wrong configuration. Check what does VLC use, pulseaudio or Alsa. Try using the same thing for other players too. Sorry, but I have to leave right now so can't help any further
[07:41] <sandra_> I cannot connect to a wired network. Can someone please help me?

[07:46] <crazy2k> Hi. I've just reinstalled OpenJDK on Ubuntu 10.04LTS, and I get a SIGSEGV when doing just a "javac -version". Are there problems with OpenJDK on 64 bits?
[07:46] <sandra_> i am using a different one
[07:46] <rockhopper> sandra_: you must type in that computer!
[07:46] <rockhopper> it gives output like this

[07:47] <white_magic> no possible!
[07:47] <sandra_> hello
[07:47] <rockhopper> gotta go
[07:47] <rockhopper> bb;
[07:47] <rockhopper> bbl
[07:47] <ezrafree> i have an ethernet cord from my ubuntu box to my windows box. is it possible to transfer files directly between the two?
[07:47] <white_magic> lili, just start typing html code and save it as such.. its the same on any OS
[07:47] <lili> what have use ragher than dreamviwer in win for linux?
[07:47] <magnetron> ezrafree: yes.
[07:48] <white_magic> lili: if you're using linux.. then at least learn to code html by hand
[07:48] <white_magic> i did it in windows just fine
[07:48] <ezrafree> magnetron: can you tell me how or point me to a resource for more information on this?
[07:48] <magnetron> ezrafree: if it's a cross-over cable, and you manually set up the network addresses
[07:48] <white_magic> you'll learn far more about web design that way
[07:48] <Flynsarmy> I installed vsftpd and set chroot_local_user=YES however i still can't ftp localhost using the users' credentials. ideas? I was using the FTP user created when vsftpd was installed
[07:48] <lili> white_magic: i can write it handly but i have to work with software because i nessacr to it.
[07:49] <ezrafree> magnetron: does it absolutely have to be a crossover cable? i've done it from mac to PC using regular ethernet
[07:49] <magnetron> ezrafree: some network cards support auto MDI/MDIX. on some it needs to be enabled manually
[07:50] <guest0001> does anyone know of an easy way to set all the fonts in 10.04 back to  default?

[07:51] <Kills> any1 out there who knows how to deal with laptop sound quality problems?
[07:51] <ezrafree> this is the relevant line in lspci, i believe: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family)
[07:53] <magnetron> ezrafree: well, anyway, i suggest you make manual preferences on both of them, one should have the IP <IP_ADDRESS> and the other <IP_ADDRESS> . the subnet mask is <IP_ADDRESS>  and network is <IP_ADDRESS> . no default route and no DNS.
[07:53] <Kills> any1 out there who knows how to deal with laptop sound quality problems? and no typing !sound doens't help me at all
[07:53] <magnetron> Kills: people needs lots of more details to be able to help you
[07:55] <ezrafree> magnetron: okay, thanks i'll give that a shot. very helpful to know to take out my dns and route info.
[07:57] <lilsnoop> anyways to use MSG win 7 command in linux for LAN notifications?
[07:58] <Ashthor> use a windows command in linux? that your question?

[07:59] <Kills> magnetron:  do you have some expierence laptop audio controllerrs because Im tired of providing details and getting 0 answers
[08:00] <Ashthor> lilsnoop: I'm going to go buy a map and get a GPS device, cause you lost me completely
[08:01] <ezrafree> magnetron: that help you gave me got it working for me, thank you so much!
[08:01] <lilsnoop> Ashthor: sorry for that, I know win 7 uses MSG command at dos prompt to send lan network messages
[08:01] <lilsnoop> in xp systems it used to be "net send" command
[08:02] <lilsnoop> wondering if it is possible to send a network message to a win 7 box from ubuntu
[08:02] <magnetron> ezrafree: cheers
[08:03] <Kills> any1 out there who knows how to deal with laptop sound quality problems?
[08:06] <ShapeShifter499> anyone have the wine 1.2-rc4 usb patches?
[08:06] <magnetron> lilsnoop: you can use smbclient to do the same thing in linux. but i'm not sure the win7 boxes will display them
[08:07] <lilsnoop> magnetron: thanks, that is what I was just googling because I know smb is what I have used in the past to access certain network shares, any reason why they would not display them?
[08:09] <Guest846> I am currently having a problem with libbsf-java, ttf-lyx, and groovy. Using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS(just recently upgraded, though i have been having trouble with these packages since 9.10)
[08:10] <offsense> why gwibber consumes almost 90% of my CPU load?? any lead to fix it?
[08:11] <Guest846> anyone here?
[08:11] <rafter> Kills do you get a lot of static
[08:12] <magnetron> lilsnoop: one reasons could be if you were in different work groups.
[08:12] <magnetron> lilsnoop: also, win7 deliberately hides shares that are not on win7 systems
[08:13] <lilsnoop> magnetron: thanks I figured that win7 doesn't play nice with us --classic
[08:13] <Guest846> I am currently having a problem with libbsf-java, ttf-lyx, and groovy. Using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS(just recently upgraded, though i have been having trouble with these packages since 9.10)
[08:14] <ectospasm> lilsnoop: I also had trouble connecting my Win7 Pro machine to my Lucid Samba share.  I had to tell it \\server\share (I couldn't browse for it), and I had to use a username/password (anonymous/guest wouldn't work)
[08:14] <offsense> why gwibber consumes almost 90% of my CPU load?? any lead to fix it?
[08:14] <ectospasm> offsense: if you stop and restart gwibber, does the problem keep returning?
[08:14] <lilsnoop> ectospasm: yeah I guess I will play around with it
[08:15] <Guest846> using ubuntu lucid lynx, i have problems with libbsf-java, there is no new script in the package? I don't know how to fix this?

[08:15] <jesukumar> Hi everyone,  I m trying to set up a client server model using UDP. The client sends a message like "ls" and the server is suppose to send a list of files in the current directory back to the client.

[08:15] <switchgirl> myb java applet is playing up

[08:18] <jesukumar> magnetron: The code is in C. I m new to socket programming
[08:19] <magnetron> jesukumar: i think you will get better help in another channel.
[08:19] <jesukumar> magnetron: Can you direct me to the right channel?
[08:19] <whosjose> ectospasm: what?
[08:19] <whosjose> jesukumar: #c
[08:20] <rafter> Kills do you get a lot of static
[08:20] <magnetron> jesukumar: ##c
[08:20] <ectospasm> whosjose: use vim or emacs as your editor, and use gcc and make to compile your programs.  Or do you need an IDE?
[08:20] <whosjose> IDE
[08:21] <jesukumar> magnetron: Thankyou
[08:22] <Kills> rafter:  what that means?
[08:23] <ectospasm> whosjose: eclipse may do what you want, but I don't know of any other IDEs for Linux/UNIX
[08:23] <rafter> static = noise
[08:23] <whosjose> ectospasm: ok
[08:23] <whosjose> ectospasm: thanks so much

[08:49] <Gopher3333> http://paste.ubuntu.com/489645/ ectospasm
[08:50] <whosjose> ectospasm: Eclipse is a java environment
[08:50] <whosjose> ectospasm: anything for a C?
[08:50] <Gopher3333> whosjose, they have a C IDE aswell..
[08:50] <Gopher3333> i've used it before.. are you on their website?
[08:50] <whosjose> Gopher3333: yes, i'm on there site.
[08:51] <Gopher3333> http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/
[08:51] <Gopher3333> 4th from the top "Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers"
[08:51] <whosjose> Gopher3333: what i did was apt-get install eclipse
[08:51] <ectospasm> Gopher3333: looks like that package is genuinely broken. You may want to re-download it, or file a bug on launchpad
[08:51] <Sandking> hey
[08:51] <Sandking> does by any chance anyone use micoach with ubuntu?
[08:51] <Galvatron> Hi

[08:51] <Gopher3333> ectospasm, i've tried doing that, it won't uninstall or reinstall
[08:52] <ectospasm> Gopher3333: hence the second option to file a bug on launchpad
[08:52] <Gopher3333> it might be good to send you a second paste-bin, showing you a second error I get?
[08:53] <ectospasm> just post it here, Gopher3333

[08:56] <hurry2> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0UYhStFLn4
[08:56] <ectospasm> Gopher3333: looks like you should remove the package completely, using aptitude remove, or dpkg.  If you've tried that, I don't know what else to do.
[08:56] <Gopher3333> okay
[08:56] <Gopher3333> thank you ectospasm
[08:57] <whosjose> beli: thanks so much!
[08:57] <hermanlf> bit of help please. How do I set that "t" flag that is on the /tmp filesystem?
[08:58] <ectospasm> hermanlf: set the sticky bit with chmod
[09:00] <pfifo> dose ext4 deal with bad sectors any better than ext2?
[09:00] <hermanlf> ectospasm: thanks!
[09:01] <dpac_> hermanlf: chmod +t /dir/name
[09:01] <ectospasm> dpac_: thanks, I couldn't remember exactly how to do it, and I was too lazy to look it up. (-;
[09:01] <whosjose> how does one add a gpg key?
[09:01] <whosjose> i saved it to my desktop
[09:01] <dpac_> ectospasm: You're welcome :)
[09:02] <whosjose> for it won't import
[09:02] <hermanlf> dpac: got it, thanks
[09:02] <pfifo> j #botwar
[09:02] <whosjose> got it
[09:02] <whosjose> nevermind
[09:02] <whosjose> :)
[09:02] <whosjose> a simple typo didnt get it working
[09:02] <whosjose> lol
[09:02] <koolhead17> guys whats the package name 4 python-urllib2 in lucid..
[09:03] <blahdeblah> Can anyone tell me whether these instructions are still valid for lucid server x64?  http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-from-usb-stick.html
[09:03] <koolhead17> apt-cache is giving me notthin
[09:03] <roam> I'm getting "No init found. Try passing init= bootarg." when booting.
[09:03] <blahdeblah> koolhead17: apt-cache search urllib gives me python-m2crypto, but that doesn't seem like it
[09:03] <roam> and I land in the busybox shell
[09:04] <roam> how can I do a fsck from that shell manually?
[09:04] <Phr3ak_> hi
[09:04] <koolhead17> blahdeblah, yes true
[09:04] <pfifo> blahdeblah, that method should still work, but now that grub2 is available you should consider using it
[09:04] <blahdeblah> koolhead17: dpkg -S /usr/lib/python2.6/urllib2.py says it's part of python2.6
[09:05] <blahdeblah> pfifo: OK - thanks.  I might try it as-is, since i'm more familiar with the old grub.
[09:05] <koolhead17> ooh. so its a core pkg in python 2.6 it means
[09:05] <blahdeblah> Looks like it
[09:05] <sts193> where does one put a web server to be able to access it outside of one's local network?
[09:05] <blahdeblah> sts193: That completely depends on your network structure
[09:05] <sts193> blahdeblah: I just setup ubuntu server 10.04 and am trying to run node.js
[09:06] <dpac_> blahdeblah: If I was you, I'd just use unetbootin. Its really easy to make bootable usb stick using unetbootin. It works for any distro.
[09:06] <sts193> i can access it through localhost:8080
[09:06] <pfifo> sts193, closet #2 rack #7
[09:06] <koolhead17> blahdeblah, i need to call py 2.6 version in my source then :D
[09:06] <dpac_> blahdeblah: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[09:06] <sts193> but not through my-ip:8080
[09:07] <blahdeblah> sts193: So do you want it available on your LAN, or the whole Internet?
[09:07] <sts193> whole internet
[09:07] <no--name> where can i find the themes that come with ubuntu? they are not in ~/themes
[09:08] <sts193> I'm just wondering if /var/www/ is not the right place to put it
[09:08] <blahdeblah> that doesn't make any difference
[09:08] <blahdeblah> It matters where it listens
[09:08] <blahdeblah> (which interface, that is)
[09:08] <blahdeblah> sts193: Are you on a home ADSL connection or something like that?
[09:08] <sts193> yes, something like that
[09:09] <magnetron> sts193: you probably forgot to forward the port from the external IP to your internal LAN ip
[09:09] <pfifo> sts193, you probbally have it listening to only localhost, you have to specifically tell it to listen on other addresses, use 'netstat -l' to check if your listening to what you think your listening on
[09:09] <blahdeblah> sts193: pastebin the output of netstat -tupln from your command line
[09:09] <sts193> but I think I understand now, I'm following some tutorials and they must be setting it to listen at localhost:8080
[09:09] <blahdeblah> Yep
[09:09] <blahdeblah> It's probably bound to the loopback interface
[09:09] <sts193> gotcha, so it doesn't matter where i run my server from
[09:10] <happynoff> Hi there. I'm working on the kdeutils package and particularly on Ark. I'm kinda new at this. How do I only build the Ark .deb instead of all kdeutils .deb ? thanks
[09:10] <sts193> blahdeblah: thanks for the insight. back to work for me
[09:10] <blahdeblah> sts193: yes, the directory is irrelevant

[09:17] <sacarlson> how can I setup a dynamic dns address with no-ip.com that will forward my real web address that is hosted from my adsl at home.  I can get XXX.myaddress.com to work but I want myaddress.com to work also.  I can't get cname to work at the root.  Is there a way?
[09:17] <Padhu> whosjose: i am now using it.
[09:17] <Padhu> beli: is it available in repo
[09:17] <beli> Padhu: why not try yourself?
[09:18] <cutout> Hi I have 6 machines with Ubuntu installed on it and the updates are killing me, is there a way to install updates on one of them and have it moved automagically to the other machines?? all the machines on the same network
[09:18] <ectospasm> cutout: you probably want to set up a local apt mirror
[09:18]  * dpac_ has quit
[09:19] <cutout> ectospasm: how?
[09:19] <beli> ectospasm: that doesnt solve his synced update problem
[09:19]  * dpac_ has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
[09:19] <Padhu> beli: updating of OS will not affect applications and stability
[09:19] <whosjose> Padhu: You can use eclipse and install the addons that they have.
[09:20] <ectospasm> cutout: beli makes a good point, but it depends on where your bottleneck is
[09:20] <beli> Padhu: that was not what i am talkinga bout...
[09:20] <blahdeblah> cutout: Another option is to push the updates through a proxy server - Ubuntu updates cache pretty well with squid
[09:20] <whosjose> Padhu: I just started using it and you can use it for more then just java which is cool
[09:20]  * gunge moves to other office
[09:20] <sacho> cutout: you can google for it :)
[09:20] <Padhu> whosjose: Okey.
[09:20] <sacho> cutout: easier than explaining the whole thing in the channel
[09:20] <beli> cutout: update-manager-core.....it comes with ubuntu server edition..take a look
[09:21] <sacho> cutout: which part of the updates is "killing you", by the way? the downloads, or the synchronization?
[09:21] <cutout> sacho : explaining what? mirror or cache option?
[09:21] <red2kic> !info apt-cacher
[09:21] <cutout> ok then it is cahcer I'll check it thanks all
[09:22] <red2kic> cutout: Read "aptitude show apt-cacher" and see if that suit your needs well.
[09:22] <whosjose> Is it possible to have .Net framework on ubuntu?
[09:22] <beli> cutout: for automagical updates on remote machines you could create a ssh account that does the job for you on login....you can do selective updates of boxes that way
[09:23] <JohnHeikkila> Hello

[09:24] <Chr|s> !enter
[09:25] <thiyagi> dude it works just fine
[09:25] <cutout> beli : it is OK if user accepts the updates the real problem to download it for each machine

[09:34] <JohnHeikkila> ShredMaster: If you want a permament change, you need to open the user management and do something there, but if you want to be root for on konsole session, you might want to try "su -"
[09:34] <tst_> morning, got a strange behaviour on Lucid, when plugging an iphone4 into usb, it begins starting filemanager till infinite. Any solution?
[09:35] <ShredMaster> johnH:  I want to be permanent
[09:35] <frobisher> sudo su
[09:36] <soreau> ShredMaster: In reality, there is no sound reason to run as root and it's a really bad idea.
[09:36] <JohnHeikkila> Shredmaster: Let me see...
[09:36] <sniperjo> beli:  where would i find them, ive just apt-get purge vlc and apt-get install vlc mozzila-plugin-vlc
[09:36] <rww> !sudo
[09:36] <soreau> Security risks like these are one of the many reasons why other OS get viruses
[09:36] <JohnHeikkila> yep
[09:37] <rww> "su -" asks for the root password, and thus won't work on Ubuntu by default, since it doesn't have one set. "sudo su" or "sudo -i" or whatever are better.
[09:37] <soreau> ShredMaster: By learning how to use sudo, you'll save yourself a lot of future headaches
[09:37] <ShredMaster> soreau: oki doki
[09:38]  * nettezzaumana hates inane sudo and in his past 10 years with Linux he used just .. no, just never
[09:38] <thiyagi> sniperjo: dude you are trying play a stream video in the first case right
[09:38] <soreau> ShredMaster: running as root can destroy your permissions system which is very important to linux, and it will if you use root as your 'normal' user (hint: it's not normal)
[09:38] <knolls> Does anyone know of software that enlarges photos without losing as much quality that I can use in Ubuntu?
[09:39] <sniperjo> thiyagi: ive changed the target to a file on the HD
[09:39] <beli> sniperjo: in the .mozilla dir
[09:39] <ectospasm> knolls: as compared to what?
[09:39] <soreau> knolls: gimp?
[09:39] <beli> sniperjo: ~/.mozilla
[09:41] <knolls> soreau: i just tried in gimp and it works decently, just wondering if maybe a program was better for it
[09:41] <frobisher> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Root Sudo
[09:41] <beli> knolls: making posters from 640px x 480px does not work...
[09:42] <flush> soreau http://pastebin.com/UfLzeMTA
[09:42] <soreau> knolls: There may be other tools but gimp does a pretty good job and has a lot of customization options
[09:42] <ectospasm> knolls: enlarging photographs inherently introduces artifacts
[09:42] <beli> knolls: enlarging images to a bigger size than they were ment to be ALWAYS makes them look bad...its just an algorithm that does the job, nothing more
[09:43] <ectospasm> knolls: you need to start with the highest resolution source image as possible.
[09:43] <soreau> flush: Hmm.. not latest ubuntu and possibly nvidia drivers, am I right?
[09:43] <thiyagi> yeah and only vector images can be zoomed with the same quality
[09:43] <ectospasm> knolls: algorithms that interpolate the added bits will never do a perfect job
[09:43] <magnetron> knolls: your best option is to use GIMP and scale up using the Lanczos kernel
[09:43] <flush> soreau you are absolutely right
[09:43] <sniperjo> beli: i have a extensions and firefox dir in ./mozilla , the dir in the extensions has got some random long name with nothing in it . also im pretty sure the the vlc controller is listed as a plugin, not extension
[09:44] <flush> but what makes makes me wonder is that it was working.. just that i dont remember how i used to boot it
[09:44] <flush> ;(
[09:44] <knolls> ectospasm: what i might do is redesign it at the size i want it to be, or smooth it out the way it is... really simple lines, no big deal
[09:44] <soreau> flush: I will have to say, easy one shot sure fire solution is to perform a fresh installation of ubuntu 10.04
[09:44] <sandGorgon> anybody using dual monitors on their laptop - I have Intel card and I use "Monitor Preferences" to set up dual monitor.. I have this annoying label on the top-left of the screen which shows its name. Can I get rid of it ?
[09:44] <beli> sniperjo: hmm, ok, it was just an idea...dont know that plugin
[09:45] <knolls> basically i'm dealing with an image full of text and a few other simple things, i just suck with the gimp unfortunately
[09:45] <soreau> flush: We could diagnose whatever setup you have currently but I can tell you from my experience, that is a crash caused by nvidia drivers (in which case you can try reinstalling the driver or using a different version of it)
[09:45] <beli> knolls: for natural smoothing on making an image bigger use BILINEAR option
[09:45] <ectospasm> knolls: or use SVG, so it will scale well
[09:45] <beli> ectospasm: lol, he's talking about pixel data, not vector stuff
[09:46] <flush> soreau interesting ill try this thanks mate
[09:46] <ectospasm> beli: yeah, but he could recreate what he wants in inkscape, and it will scale MUCH better
[09:46] <beli> ectospasm: an image of his wife? recreated with inkscape? umm...
[09:47] <ectospasm> beli: I saw "really simple lines" and thought a drawing, not a photo.  Forgive me for not reading! (-;
[09:47] <knolls> can i post a link in this room with the image i'm working with?
[09:47] <soreau> flush: If you have any more questions related to compiz, please ask in #compiz
[09:47] <ectospasm> !pastebin | knolls
[09:47] <beli> knolls: sure
[09:47] <sinner99> русский
[09:47] <sniperjo> beli: im assuming its the plug with the problem as there are no javascript errors in firebug and i have copied the example straight from the vlc page
[09:48] <beli> sniperjo: maybe the docu is for an older firefox version and sth. changed
[09:48] <Ardril> Hi everyone
[09:48] <knolls> http://imagebin.org/113044  it's this minus the additional information
[09:49] <Ardril> I got a small problem with my VLC Media Player (A codec is missing) anyone could help?
[09:49] <sinner99> ок
[09:49] <soreau> Ardril: Sure, which format is it?
[09:49] <beli> knolls: ok what size do you want it to be?
[09:49] <soreau> Ardril: Try installing ubuntu-restricted-extras package, if you haven't already
[09:49] <knolls> beli: 2 foot high around 3 wide
[09:49] <soreau> ! codecs | Ardril
[09:50] <beli> ectospasm: i guess you are right....he could really recreate that as vector graphics
[09:50] <thiyagi> its a vector image
[09:50] <Ardril> soreau i want to stream into justin tv (http://de.justin.tv/ardril_lerfai#/w/369921680) its working i can see something but it got wired graphics the codec which is missing is MPEG AAC Audio
[09:50] <thiyagi> inkscape will do the job right
[09:50] <sinner99> минутку
[09:50] <knolls> if nothing else i'll redesign it, it only took an hour but it might be hard to remember exactly how it was done, and everything but a gigantic sign is already printed for this
[09:51] <thiyagi> knolls:use inkscape
[09:51] <beli> knolls: it isnt hard to redesign it...inkscape is really well for it
[09:51] <knolls> beli: thiyagi: everyone else, thanks
[09:51] <beli> knolls: you can use the fonts also and vectorize them
[09:52] <soreau> Ardril: Try installing liba52 package?
[09:52] <beli> knolls: best you try it out with a part of your image to see how perfect it works
[09:52] <sniperjo> beli: awesome all the final examples dont work but if you mangle them together they do..
[09:52] <Ardril> one second
[09:52] <sniperjo> beli:  cheers for the help
[09:52] <knolls> beli: does it take a lot of time?  if the result is success i don't care if it takes a week to finish
[09:53] <soreau> Ardril: I don't know which version of ubuntu you have but that is the base name
[09:53] <Ardril> liba52 is installed
[09:53] <Matsy> Hm.
[09:53] <Ardril> it comes with vlc
[09:53] <Matsy> If I change a KConfig file, how would it get included in the new menuconfig?
[09:53] <soreau> Ardril: Well I guess it's broken. Try filing a bug
[09:53] <Matsy> Like, is there a way to force the reload of the config files?
[09:53] <Ardril> im usind the 10.04 version
[09:54] <Ardril> reinstalled the package but still the error
[09:54] <tschundeee> hi I need a .deb package for ruby 1.9.2
[09:54] <tschundeee> is there something for lucid?
[09:54] <beli> knolls: inkscape is intuitive....you will have it done in less than 2 hours i guess
[09:55] <sniperjo> beli: only one problem though, ask me for a suitable plug everytime it starts, i cancel but it still works
[09:56] <beli> sniperjo: maybe you could define not to ask for it again under about:config
[09:56] <Ardril> soreau i reinstalled it but still the error
[09:56] <beli> sniperjo: or define what plugin to use...mime-type like
[09:56] <mayank_gupta2005> Hello, i am trying to carry out a simulation using the sim-safe tool of simple scalor, the simulation gets stuck in between, and the terminal keeps on showing a % (command prompt) symbol, the output is like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/489674/ and the make file that i am using is:http://paste.ubuntu.com/489679/ , can anyone help pleasse! i need some help urgently!! thanks!!
[09:57] <soreau> Ardril: I suspect the problem is with that package and since you said it's provided by vlc, perhaps you should seek out a different version of vlc through ppa repo/deb packages or building it yourself from source
[09:57] <dpac_> tschundeee: Isn't it available in the repository?
[09:57] <koolhead17> tschundeee, sudo apt-get install rails
[09:57] <tschundeee> dpac_: only ruby 1.9.1
[09:57] <soreau> Ardril: ie. it's installed correctly but is bugged for your setup for whatever reason
[09:57] <tschundeee> dpac_: or how can I browse it?
[09:58] <tschundeee> dpac_:  apt-get install only offers versions below 1.9.2
[09:58] <beli> tschundeee: compile it from source and use checkinstall to make a package....for compiling options take a look into the ubuntu src package of ruby 1.9.1
[09:58] <ectospasm> mayank_gupta2005: you're probably asking in the wrong place

[10:00] <Aldus> hi, I am trying to have my Creative Skype Instant Webcam to work on Ubuntu. It works well on most sites but has an extra zoom (like 4x more). I downloaded Camorama and Cheese but both won't start. Camorama just says it can't capture image, Cheese gives a " error setting pixformat: Invalid argument" error. How to proceed?
[10:00] <somethinginteres> hi all, is it really worth using a fresh install to upgrade Ubuntu or will an upgrade from within the OS be equally fine?
[10:00] <ectospasm> mayank_gupta2005: I don't know, maybe try #sim-safe
[10:01] <glebihan> somethinginteres: upgrade usually works fine
[10:01] <ectospasm> mayank_gupta2005: or use the appropriate forums provided by that project
[10:01] <dpac_> somethinginteres: A fresh install would definitely be better than an upgrade but you'd have to reinstall all your packages again. Upgrading would save you the headache of installing all packages all over again.
[10:01] <mayank_gupta2005> ectospasm: there is no group for that, i have tried forums but no support :/
[10:01] <harlan> I'm trying to get ubuntu running on a dell 600SC.  The 9. and 10. install CDs have not been booting for me, so I found  http://en.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1328442 .

[10:03] <iluminameluna> hi, linux noob here needing help w/ my ASUS Eee PC 901, has 2 stacked ssd's: 4G and 16G ... have d/l LL .iso and wish to install 'cause I made a rookie mistake and managed to install the KKoala to the smaller of the 2 ssd's so that now I can't upgrade it for lack of space .. I've partitioned a 16G USB flash drive w/ 8G to Fat 32 and about that for ext3 (Ubuntu) following http://mintarticles.com/read/operating-systems-articles/how-to-
[10:03] <iluminameluna> install-portable-linux-ubuntu-on-a-bootable-usb-flash-drive-from-sun-virtualbox,13641/ . I'm now stuck
[10:03] <ectospasm> Hadoop4Life: huh?
[10:04] <Hadoop4Life> I'm thinking of using it as a key/value store
[10:04] <Hadoop4Life> People say it's scalable
[10:04] <dpac_> somethinginteres: Well, if your system is too bloated/cluttered, it helps you remove the clutter. Plus some rogue configs would be cleared of. Boot time would be much better.
[10:04] <iluminameluna> because I found 2 virtualbox files but neither will launch the app. Can someone help or direct me to a better place for me?
[10:04] <ectospasm> Hadoop4Life: it's a bit bucket, one does not normally read from it
[10:05] <somethinginteres> dpac_: right, might do that then. I have a regression bug in the kernel for Lucid that means no audio so I am thinking of making the jump to 10.10 early
[10:05] <ectospasm> Oh, I was feeding a troll
[10:06] <dpac_> somethinginteres: you should go ahead then
[10:07] <JohnHeikkila> somethinginteres: Don't
[10:07] <JohnHeikkila> somethinginteres: I jumped to maverick early and just running apt-get update messed my whole system
[10:07] <JohnHeikkila> messed my xorg.conf, nvidia configurations, all the configurations
[10:08] <somethinginteres> JohnHeikkila: oh dear. Well as it stands no audio is a major issue for me
[10:08] <somethinginteres> JohnHeikkila: I can get audio running an older kernel but it's buggy
[10:09] <Aldus> hi, I am trying to have my Creative Skype Instant Webcam to work on Ubuntu. It works well on most sites but has an extra zoom (like 4x more). I downloaded Camorama and Cheese but both won't start. Camorama just says it can't capture image, Cheese gives a " error setting pixformat: Invalid argument" error. How to proceed?
[10:09] <dpac_> somethinginteres: Why don't you just upgrade the kernel?
[10:10] <knolls> beli: thiyagi: this program not only increased size larger than what i originally planned but it added extra beauty to my graphic (and i'm already done).  you guys made my day
[10:10] <thiyagi> cool
[10:10] <somethinginteres> dpac_: well I've upgraded as the updates have come through the update manager, but the bug is not resolved
[10:10] <thiyagi> i think it didnt even take 10mins of your time
[10:11] <erUSUL> somethinginteres: tried installing « linux-backports-modules-alsa-lucid-generic » ?
[10:12] <somethinginteres> erUSUL: no I haven't honestly not sure what that is/does.. :)
[10:12] <dpac_> somethinginteres: Latest kernel takes time to appear in update manager (repos). You might want to install manually.
[10:12] <erUSUL> somethinginteres: newer sound drivers.
[10:12] <erUSUL> somethinginteres: but maybe that's not the issue?

[10:13] <sandGorgon> how do I disable postgres from starting on boot in 10.04 - what changes do I need to make for upstart ?
[10:13] <knolls> thiyagi: yeah about 5 minutes to read what vectorizing meant and 5 minutes to use a tutorial to do it, i'm _extremely_ glad you were around, thanks guys
[10:13] <somethinginteres> erUSUL: hmm..
[10:13] <somethinginteres> erUSUL: I guess not, b/c the sound works fine in older kernels 16 up to a daily from a few weeks back
[10:13] <somethinginteres> dpac_: I would do that but each I try seems to have weird quircks
[10:14] <somethinginteres> dpac_: for example, the daily I used a week ago made my screen super tiny
[10:14] <somethinginteres> dpac_: nd it wasn't changing
[10:14] <dpac_> somethinginteres: Well, its not worth the trouble then. BTW, have you filed a bug about your sound problem? Link?
[10:14] <thiyagi> share what you know is linux all about..
[10:14] <somethinginteres> dpac_: I have - give me a sec I'll find it
[10:15] <iluminameluna> anyonw have any help for me?

In gnome, with fully up-to-date ubuntu lucid, my keyboard keeps getting reset to US at every reboot, even if every time I choose the italian layout, and delete the US one which I used sometimes.

[10:18] <Flynsarmy> I've set up vsftp and have a user logging in. However when they try to add a file to the folder it responds with 'operation failed'. How could I fix that?
[10:18] <JohnHeikkila> Hello
[10:19] <root> hello worlld
[10:19] <Guest16855> hello world
[10:19] <magnetron> Flynsarmy: does the user have write access?
[10:19] <dpac_> somethinginteres: 2.6.35 is available with maverick. You should try that.
[10:20] <Flynsarmy> magnetron: the folder has permission 777 so i'd assume they'd be able to write to it
[10:20] <dpac_> somethinginteres: I'd suggest you to install maverick.
[10:20] <Flynsarmy> magnetron: i also set chown_upload=YES and chown_username=root figuring htat might help - didn't make a difference
[10:20] <rww> !maverick
[10:21] <dpac_> somethinginteres: Alternatively, you might add maverick's repos and install the kernel from there, but that may create some problems, I am not really sure.
[10:21] <rww> mixing repositories from different versions of Ubuntu is highly unsupported.
[10:22] <somethinginteres> dpac_ I'll go for maverick then

[10:36] <newbie420> Dilberto: Piss off, cunt.
[10:37] <itbcn8> ??
[10:37] <magnetron> sniperjo: maybe you have conflicting plugins? try removing the totem mozilla plugin
[10:37] <newbie420> Asking if I'm black in PM.
[10:37] <newbie420> What a wanker.
[10:37] <bazhang> newbie420, lets move on please

[10:38] <itbcn8> !digest
 no answer
[10:40] <sniperjo> magnetron:  if i go onto plugins in firefox i have a dropbox where i can select either VLC totem compatable or VLC , if i use just vlc, the player just shows "waiting for video"
[10:41] <avi__> hey folks, i'm using Ubuntu Lucid, and I've got these two external HDs that i plug in often. Problem is, they've got lots of partitions, and therefore Nautilus pops open like 8 windows when I plug the drives in, and it is a total frustration and unwanted. I have no problems with disabling this functionality entirely. How might I go about supressing the browser window that appears when a new harddrive is plugged in? Thanks a bunch!
[10:42] <magnetron> sniperjo: vlc perhaps doesn't support the codec used? i don't know
[10:43] <red2kic> avi__: I think.... In Nautilus, Edit --> Preferences --> Untick Browse Media when inserted.
[10:44] <avi__> red2kic, It was something along those lines, thanks so much! I really didn't want to spend my time hunting around for that preference if I didn't absolutely have to. Thanks again!
[10:44] <red2kic> avi__: Try it though. That way, you can confirm it for me. :)
[10:44] <glebihan> red2kic, avi__: it's the right option
[10:45] <avi__> red2kic, No I did, that's what I was saying :) It was actually Edit>Prefs>media>untick.
[10:45] <Flynsarmy> ok fellas - issue. I created a user with useradd -ou 0 tempuser where 0 is for root...so now when i try to userdel tempuser it's telling me tempuser is already logged in......what do i do to delete the user?
[10:45] <red2kic> glebihan, avi__: Great! Thanks. :0
[10:46] <Flynsarmy> typing who shows only root as logged in
[10:47] <ikonia> Flynsarmy: w works of uid
[10:47] <ikonia> Flynsarmy: you have created a user sharing the same uid as root - that's your issue
[10:47] <Flynsarmy> ikonia: yea :( how can i now remove it?
[10:48] <glebihan> Flynsarmy: use the -f option
[10:48] <glebihan> Flynsarmy: use the -f option
[10:48] <ikonia> Flynsarmy: you'll have to use the gui, or manually remove it from the password and shadow file
[10:48] <glebihan> Flynsarmy: userdel -f tempuser
[10:48] <ikonia> glebihan: careful that may remove root to as the uid is not uinque
[10:48] <Flynsarmy> glebihan: userdel -f tempuser results in 'user tempuser is currently logged in'
[10:49] <Flynsarmy> ikonia: jeez, that message might have been helpful before i'd actually tried it :) luckily it failed
[10:49] <glebihan> Flynsarmy: that is probably a security due to the fact that this user has the same user ID as root
[10:49] <kk06> FUCKER KUCKKERS
[10:49] <glebihan> Flynsarmy: there was no actual risk, there's no way to delete the root user
[10:50]  * Calinou changed his ubuntu theme
[10:50] <Flynsarmy> OK, i just modify /etc/passwd with nano? and whereis the shadow file?
[10:50] <glebihan> Flynsarmy: /etc/shadow
[10:51] <Flynsarmy> glebihan: strange, tempuser isnt' mentioned in /etc/shadow
[10:51] <gryllida> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/489699/ perl issue, how do I fix it?
[10:52] <nettolo> Hi all
[10:53] <Flynsarmy> glebihan: ok, it's not appearing in /etc/passwd either anymore. maybe your -f command worked afterall :)

[11:11] <SmokeyD> hey everyone. I have an nvidia 6600 dual head video card in my ubuntu lucid machine (amd64). The nvidia proprietary driver was giving me trouble, so I deactivated it. The setup works almost with a dual monitor setup (one right of the other) but one of the two monitors is shown in the monitors tools as unknown and the resolution isn't detected correctly. I can only select resolutions up to 1024x768 while it actually can handle up to 1280x1024. How do I
[11:11] <ikonia> SmokeyD: you'll need the nvidia drivers most likley to get the max resolution out of it
[11:12] <nicoulaj> do some of you own Radeon 5770 graphic cards ? no driver issues on Ubuntu ?
[11:13] <SmokeyD> ikonia: there is no way to do it without the nvidia driver? One of the two monitors is detected correctly and I can set it to it's native resolution of 1280x1024, but with the other one I can't. So the driver càn handle 1280x1024, it just detects the resolution for that one monitor incorrectly
[11:14] <SmokeyD> ikonia: it doesn't matter to which of the two heads I connect the monitors. I already tried switching them but it gives the same results
[11:16] <Aldus> hi. Total Ubuntu beginner here... I used to connect to my debian server with putty, and it worked ok. Trying to connect from ubuntu with: "ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>requests password (which I input correctly) but then gives me always access denied. What am I missing?
[11:16] <clik_op> Can someone suggest me an application which shows me (on the system tray or on desktop like screenlet or something ) who are on the LAN i use and who is using my wireless (which has no password on my area) . I know my routers password and username.
[11:18] <Chr|s> How come after uninstalled empath, when I click on chat in the indicator applet it still pops up?
[11:18] <phlak_user> Aldus: have you allowed root logins on the debian server?
[11:18] <HRH_H_Crab> any experienced moinmoin users about who are familiar with the ubuntu docs on the subject?
[11:18] <Chr|s> I honestly don't care for empathy, and quite particular to pidgin
[11:18] <Aldus> phlak_user: I never did it, but putty always worked
[11:18] <Aldus> and it still wokrs from my colleague's win computer
[11:18] <rww> Chr|s: because either 1) you haven't installed all of Lucid's updates, or 2) you haven't logged out since removing Empathy, or 3) something is broken.
[11:18] <phlak_user> Aldus: you can also enable verbose by ssh -vv root@blahblah
[11:19] <phlak_user> Aldus: that might give you a clue
[11:19] <Chr|s> rww: must be I haven't logged out since removing Empathy. I didn't think I had too when I uninstall an app
[11:19] <phlak_user> clik_op: not sure if theres an app like that; though you can use wireshark/tcpdump/ethereal  to sniff
[11:20] <Aldus> phlak_user, : I get  "Authentications that can continue: publickey,password" "Permission denied, please try again.
[11:20] <Aldus> "
[11:20] <rww> Chr|s: The indicator applet doesn't pick up on programs disappearing until after logout. This is better than the pre-update situation, when it didn't pick up on them disappearing at all :\
[11:20] <clik_op> phlak_user: no no. i know to use wireshark a little bit. i know the other app like this. but i need to see it everytime. there are many reasons to use them. but i can not log on from brosers  everytime to look them :(
[11:20] <Chr|s> rww: ahh ok, thanks
[11:21] <clik_op> phlak_user: where i can find a software like that ?
[11:21] <phlak_user> Aldus: also, if you have access to the debian server looking at /var/log/auth.log might throw up some clues
[11:21] <NET||abuse> what's a normal speed of transfering files over wifi to a networked box? i'm getting about 220KB/s copying a few ISO's up from my laptop over wifi to a wired nas box
[11:21] <NET||abuse> is that a normal rate?
[11:21] <NET||abuse> i'm seeing 500/600 KB/s download from the internet though, so why is this slower?
[11:21] <ikonia> NET||abuse: there is no "normal" it depends on your situation
[11:21] <Aldus> phlak_user: I'll try to check it. Isn't there any flag to allow me to input username without specifying it in<EMAIL_ADDRESS>?
[11:21] <pie_time> my video is slightly behind my audio when playing streams in VLC or playing videos on youtube. can anyone reccommend anything?
[11:22] <redbullfx> is there a way to remove myself from the top panel and just leave the session button?
[11:22] <phlak_user> Aldus: not that i know of; does the username contain any specialcharacters etc?
[11:22] <NET||abuse> ikonia, ok, i have an IBNAS-4220-b (iceybox nas) plugged into the router, and my laptop on wifi, i can download from HEANET (irish mirror source) at a good steady 600KB/s, but copying up to the NAS is only running at 220KB/s
[11:23] <Aldus> phlak_user: not, the password does
[11:23] <ikonia> NET||abuse: again, there is no "normal" it all depends on your setup and enviornment
[11:23] <NET||abuse> actually, it climbed to 260KB/s
[11:23] <NET||abuse> still, why so slow?
[11:23] <phlak_user> Aldus: ok
[11:23] <ikonia> NET||abuse: could be many many reasons
[11:24] <phlak_user> NET||abuse: does your router have any qos/traffic shaping options enabled?
[11:24] <NET||abuse> ikonia, well can you derive anything from what i'm telling you now? or are there other factors you have in mind?
[11:24] <sinner99> нужна помощь
[11:25] <ikonia> NET||abuse: nothing from what you're telling me, the reasons are as long as your arm, from network cable quality, distance, wirless interference, drivers, disk speed, ram, usage,
[11:25] <phlak_user> !ru| sinner99
[11:25] <NET||abuse> phlak_user, i've no idea, it's the router the isp gives, UPC, they give us this cisco cable modem, wiif router 4 port switch and 2 port ATA gateway combo box.
[11:25] <NET||abuse> cisco EPC2425
[11:26] <pie_time> helloo
[11:26] <pie_time> my video is slightly behind my audio when playing streams in VLC or playing videos on youtube. can anyone reccommend anything?
[11:27] <NET||abuse> wow, just installed fresh 10.04 netbook remix on my old EeePC 1000h, 264 updates available.
[11:27] <NET||abuse> pie_time, use the h and j keys
[11:28] <pie_time> is that all you have to press? h and j? where? in firefox or VLC?
[11:28] <NET||abuse> pie_time, i think that's the right ones, maybe it's k and l, but they speed up/ slow down(delay) audio track by 50ms units every key press,
[11:28] <NET||abuse> manually sync your audio :)
[11:28] <NET||abuse> pie_time, oh, in vlc, i've not tried that in the firefox embeded version.
[11:28] <pie_time> where? in firefox or VLC?
[11:28] <kadal> m
[11:29] <kadal> coba
[11:30] <NET||abuse> hah, that transfer has slowly crept up to 300KB/s
[11:30] <NET||abuse> actually, i hae trouble connecting wifi on the EeePC (10.04 netbook remix) where my main 2 laptops (regular 10.04 and windows 7 home(yuck i know)) connect fine.
[11:31] <NET||abuse> it keeps just asking for the wpa key, but i guess i'm updating from the raw usb stick install to latest updates, so we'll see.
[11:31] <NET||abuse> anyone else using netbook remix?
[11:33] <kadal> dfdgfdf
[11:34] <ikonia> kadal: please stop that
[11:34] <kadal> piye nda?

[11:37] <ofauchon> Hi. My laptop is stuck , X is dead... How can I boot in single mode ? I can't see the bootloader  thx

[11:38] <industrial> I have a laptop and a 30" screen. I want my gnome-panel on the big screen and use the laptop screen to the side. I am already doing this, just not the panel. How do I make it so?
[11:38] <glebihan> loopool: could you pastebin output of "ifconfig" ?
[11:40] <ofauchon> thx _hans I'll try that
[11:40] <imanc_> none of the mobile printers i want to use are supported by ubuntu. This sucks.
[11:41] <loopool> http://paste.ubuntu.com/489717/

[11:44] <Flynsarmy> is there a command in ftp in terminal to create an empty file in current directory?
[11:45] <glebihan> loopool: ok, have you tried "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up" ?
[11:45] <ikonia> Flynsarmy: no
[11:47] <Flynsarmy> I installed vsftpd and it created an 'ftp' user. I then chown root.ftp'd a folder and set tempusers group to ftp and added them to the chroot_list so they can log in. They log in fine, however aren't able to write files - just says 'operation failed'. Any ideas? the folders have permission 777 on the server and an ls-l has them as root ftp

[11:48] <Izinucs> rww: thanks
[11:48] <phlak_user> NET||abuse: theres another way of checking but you would need at least 2 laptops/pcs etc
[11:48] <rww> can't think of any others. ubottu claims edbrowse, but I've never heard of it.
[11:49] <loopool> glebihan: yes, it just won't let me connect
[11:49] <Aldus> I connected to a remote host with ssh. How to return now to my bash? Running "exit" outputs "logout" "There are stopped jobs"
[11:50] <phlak_user> Aldus: ctl+d
[11:50] <Izinucs> Flynsarmy: I tried vsftpd once.. never got it working.. tried pureftpd and after struggling a while got it going.. some of these FTP servers maintain their own user name/password database.. like samba does.  check into that and add your users appropriately
[11:51] <Flynsarmy> Izinucs: yea there is some 'allow local users' option which i enabled and added tempuser to the allow list which is why i'm able to log him on. just can't seem to get him able to write files
[11:52] <glebihan> loopool: try "sudo ifconfig wlan0 down; sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid 'ESSID' key 'PASSWORD'; sudo ifconfig wlan0 up", replacing ESSID and PASSWORD by the correct values for your network
[11:54] <phlak_user> Flynsarmy: do you have write_enable set to YES in vsftpd.conf ?
[11:54] <Flynsarmy> phlak_user: no i don't. i'll enable it and see what happens
[11:54] <phlak_user> Flynsarmy: and restart the service
[11:55] <Flynsarmy> phlak_user: worked! thanks alot :)

[12:01] <phlak_user> ddavids: you can use System-Administration-Gparted
[12:01] <ddavids> oh
[12:01] <ddavids> phlak_user: i'll give it a try...

[12:03] <loopool> glebihan, yep. Connects automatically no problem

[12:04] <glebihan> loopool: what's your wireless card model ?
[12:05] <loopool> glebihan - I'm unsure. How do I check?
[12:05] <phlak_user> ddavids: go to Partition and click on Unmount. Once the disk unmounts, the options become available
[12:06] <glebihan> loopool: try "lspci", in the last lines, you should find your network controllers
[12:07] <ddavids> phlak_user: the unmount tab is also greyed out...

[12:13] <loopool> glebihan, it's been so long since I've used this partition because of the wireless playing up. I just can't go without Ubuntu any more...
[12:14] <rootEth> there are others in the software centre too if you look
[12:14] <glebihan> loopool: you should try installing the latest drivers; you can find them here : http://www.realtek.com/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=48&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#RTL8192SE
[12:14] <rootEth> if that 1 doesn't work
[12:14] <glebihan> loopool: try either the linux one, or the Windows one, using ndiswrapper
