[16:44] <enli> I need to do this preferably from a script.
[16:44] <jrib> enli: try #bash
[16:44] <gogeta> enli: you can do that with sleep
[16:44] <antii> i have installed ubuntu server 10,10. cant seem to find my soundcard.. im using ion and i did a aplay -l and i got aplay: device_list:235: no soundcards found...
[16:44] <bethdo97> gogeta: I am attempting to install Windows 7 minimal install on a Sony Vaio laptop using an USB drive.  I found a step by step guidde for doing this on the MsDN forums but I had one question.  The blog says to access the gnome partition manager thru the Ubuntu Live installation disc.  Can I use the Gparted application from the Ubuntu desktop to do thhe partion or is there some reason to use the one wwith the Live CD?  I am not real Li
[16:44] <induz> bazhang, i have been reading and downlaoding and installing tons of programs...this Model is not getting recognised except  others
[16:44] <geirha> ben_q: sudo sh touch   is very different from   sudo touch
[16:45] <gogeta> enli: sleep 10 would bew 10 seconds
[16:45] <gogeta> be
[16:45] <ben_q> geirha.. I'm trying to use it from php, there is no sudo there.. I only used sudo to test the command as user www-data
[16:45] <sacarlson> enli: you can setup 2 crontab jobs one to run and one to kill
[16:46] <youngblood> I just check the mount command on my other system, I do have a space before the /mntpoint.
[16:46] <enli> sacarlson: sure, but i would prefer a single script if its possible : )
[16:46] <geirha> ben_q: Ok, what does the timestamp you're using look like?
[16:46] <enli> gogeta: sure, but that is not what I intend to do.
[16:46] <sacarlson> enli: or just have your script kill itself after cron starts it
[16:46] <ben_q> in php, I tried touch() and exec("touch").. normal touch works, but as soon as I use a custom time, it doesn't
[16:46] <gogeta> enli: you whatted a dely
[16:46] <Halkus> Ok... questions about Ubuntu.... Can I remote GUI to it easily enough?
[16:46] <sacarlson> enli: there is the sleep command to wait a time then kill itself
[16:46] <ben_q> geirha, already tried it with root, and the timestamp is ok.. YYYYMMddHHii.ss
[16:47] <youngblood> can someone see anything wrong with this mount coomand ?"sudo mount -t iso9660 -0 loop ubuntu-10.04.1-desktop-i386.iso /mntpoint" I created th mntpoint directory. The error I'm getting is that the file name can not be found.
[16:47] <jrib> youngblood: cousteau`nbk also told you that '0' should be 'o'.  If you still get the error, then the file doesn't exist in the directory you are in
[16:47] <ben_q> just doesn't work from www-data =(
[16:47] <nexeh> Haikus: yes you can.. very easy and a few different ways
[16:47] <theadmin> my mainboard vendor is an idiot that can't put SATA hubs on mobo in a working way
[16:47] <gogeta> bethdo97: windows 7 has a partation installer
[16:47] <theadmin> how can I most easly change on small thing in kernel source and rebuild it?
[16:47] <gogeta> bethdo97: dunno why they said to use ubuntus
[16:47] <DSevigny> Anyone use ftp from command line on a headless box?
[16:47] <jrib> !kernel | theadmin
[16:47] <marjlene> someone know how to override ntfs automount options in Ubuntu ?
[16:48] <polymoly> trying to install ubuntu server amd64 on my Dell poweredge T106 but the installer fails to find DVD after I choose the language and hit install. Tried adding mem=4G to the end of boot menu options as suggested in this post http://art.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8712087 but that did not work. Any suggestions?
[16:48] <geirha> ben_q: And it gives you no error message?
[16:48] <polymoly> T105
[16:48] <cousteau`nbk> marjlene, USB or disk partition?
[16:48] <marjlene> cousteau`nbk, USB
[16:48] <enli> sacarlson, gogeta: can you  possible do this from a script? e.g. launch some program say pidgin -> wait 10 seconds -> exit script.
[16:48] <ben_q> geirha, I get  "Operation not permitted"
[16:48] <gogeta> enli: yes you can floow any command with sleep
[16:48] <Halkus> Is Ubuntu any good at network shares?
[16:49] <cousteau`nbk> oh, then I don't... maybe has something to do with udev
[16:49] <gogeta> enli: eg sleep 10 exit
[16:49] <youngblood> jrib, I do have an "o". the file is on a CD. How do i make that a part a path?
[16:49] <marjlene> cousteau`nbk,  i have to add utf8 option
[16:49] <sacarlson> enli: yes  pidgin; sleep 10; exit 1;
[16:49] <jrib> youngblood: what you pasted has a '0', not an 'o'
[16:49] <bethdo97> gogeta: what doo you meann it has a partition installer? do u mean using Shift + F10 to get to thee disk part coommand screen
[16:49] <DSevigny> Ftp from commandline? Anyone used to it?
[16:49] <sacarlson> enli: opps pidgin&; sleep 10 ; exit 1;
[16:49] <Halkus> I mean can it take an array, say 6TB and split it into several drives all with all the available space, and share them all to different people on the network with different permissions?
[16:49] <youngblood> jrib, I know, i typed it wrong
[16:49] <marjlene> cousteau`nbk, can t copy file with à,è,é character in it
[16:49] <ben_q> geirha, although the file has "rw-rw-r--  nc:www-data"
[16:49] <enli> gogeta: right ;)
[16:50] <jrib> youngblood: for the path, start at / and provide the absolute path to the .iso
[16:50] <gogeta> bethdo97: you can do that but just using the standerd install brings up diskpart when you click advanced
[16:50] <induz> I am removing the GTKpod and re-installing it maybe as i connected it to the wrong/old iPod not the iPod touch
[16:50] <gogeta> bethdo97: when it ask where to install
[16:50] <geirha> ben_q: Ah, guess you need to be owner, then.
[16:50] <cousteau`nbk> marjlene, I'm sorry, I don't know... however you could unmount it and mount it again with the desired options
[16:50] <youngblood> jrib, how do i do that if the file is on a CD?
[16:51] <maco> induz: remove doesnt remove config
[16:51] <maco> induz: per-user configs like that would be in your home directory
[16:51] <induz> maco,  i dont know what to do with config
[16:51] <jrib> youngblood: /folder1/folder2/whateveryourfileiscalled  Probably /media/cdrom/.  If you know how to get there from the gui, then use that to aid you
[16:51] <bethdo97> I tried doing it that way but the installer still claimed it couldn't fiind a volume to install on
[16:51] <marjlene> cousteau`nbk, tried it already but seems it ignore every custom options i throw in
[16:51] <geirha> ben_q: Indeed, it only lets me change the timestamp if I own the file, write permission is not enough.
[16:51] <maco> induz: if it has its own directory like ~/.gtkpod then delete it
[16:52] <ben_q> ok geirha.. pity =( thanks anyway
[16:52] <gogeta> bethdo97: you install from or to usb
[16:52] <Halkus> Hmm, Samba is what I want to use to share files?
[16:52] <maco> induz: otherwise, might need to run gconf-editor and dig through there to find its settings and remove them
[16:52] <induz> maco, yes i am going to delet the .gtkpod folder too
[16:53] <jrib> ben_q: read the info pages (info coreutils 'touch invocation')
[16:53] <Tigger__> The Sound alert for new mail is not working on Thunderbird with 10.10 maverick... Any ideas anyone please?
[16:53] <cousteau`nbk> marjlene, but don't extract it after unmounting, just use `umount` and `mount`
[16:53] <gogeta> bethdo97: you probly gotta format whatever part you install 7 to
[16:53] <Halkus> Should I take 10.4 or 10.10? It's going on a server up my loft, so I'm thinking the one with long term support... right?
[16:54] <cousteau`nbk> marjlene, other than that, I don't know what else can be done, sorry
[16:54] <jrib> Halkus: if you want long term support, then take 10.04
[16:54] <enli> gogeta, sacarlson: thanks a lot.. i was missing "&"
[16:54] <gimpy4613> Ubuntu 10.10 x64, for some reason random hard drives will lose their GTP table.  It's only one drive at a time, but not the same drive each time and seems to be any random one on a RAId controller I have.  Logs show no cause, these drives are in an LVM VG used as a datastore, no OS storage on them.  Ideas?
[16:55] <Halkus> Any reason not to go x64?
[16:55] <bethdo97> gogeta:  or/??  I have tried to accomplish this from CD and USB to no avail.  We put a new WD Scorpio blue 500 GB HD in the lap top I am trying to get set up for him.  There was nothing installed on it when I started trying too do this.  I have pulled my hair out foor over a week.  I have learned a lot about a whole little but I am impressed with Ubuntu and plan to get it going on my laptop using WUBI aftere I get my sons computer wor
[16:55] <marjlene> cousteau`nbk, don t be sorry, we have tried to find a solution
[16:55] <gimpy4613> Halkus: Some software does not like x64, but most would be fine if you install ia32-libs.
[16:55] <FLJohn> I have 64 but have some problems with Flash.  if you can not watch hulu because of this, try the Web browser Sea Monkey.  It works
[16:55] <gimpy4613> Halkus: Flash support sucks in x64 tough...
[16:56] <Travis-42> is there a program I can use to start and stop a stockwatch key strokes?
[16:56] <Halkus> Is there much like that gimpy4613? I'll be using it as a server, with a GUI to do specific tasks...
[16:56] <gogeta> bethdo97: 500gb to big for labby maybe?
[16:56] <cousteau`nbk> gimpy4613, Flash support sucks, period.
[16:56] <gogeta> bethdo97: if its not showing up it might be a hardware thing
[16:56] <FLJohn> Agreed about Flash Support.
[16:56] <Halkus> Flash is a great big privacy, performance and security hole :p
[16:56] <ComradeHaz`> Gentlemen, 4c of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DisklessUbuntuHowto Please could you explain lines 2 to 4, do you think? It would probably suffice to tell me how I find that information on any given linux system.
[16:57] <gimpy4613> Halkus: some binary only drivers and such may not like it, but I run all x64 and flash is my only real problem.
[16:57] <youngblood> jrib, after putting my cd in, i see no indication where it is located, How would i find out its location?
[16:57] <jrib> youngblood: check /media
[16:57] <induz> bazhang, how can i update/upgrade GTKpod from .99 to 1.00 release on Lucid?
[16:57] <Halkus> Thanks Gimpy - is there any way I can check in advance if my RAID card has drivers?
[16:57] <polymoly> going back to CentOS 5.5 64 even though the kernel is ancient. Too many problems with ubuntu server 64 bit edition.
[16:57] <mneptok> Halkus: run a Live CD session
[16:57] <bethdo97> gogeta: I moved to Ubuntu when I couldn't get any form of Vista to install on the new hard drive.  Didn't have restore disks because son didn't know where they were and the old one was dead as a doornail when I started
[16:57] <nexeh> I have sounds problems. I have been on UIbuntu for a while and my sound just doesnt work anymore. in sound preferences my hardware shows up but nothing in the input or out put tabs.. i have a ton of infomation and ground work pasted here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560302/ . Could some one give me a hand?
[16:57] <dominicdinada> well WTF ubuntu switches to upstart and doesn't ask webmin to at least make a new module and now they are pushing #ebox and EBOX has no support or functionality
[16:57] <Halkus> Can I do that from the install CD?
[16:58] <gimpy4613> Halkus: Google to see if anyoine else is using it, and check the manufac site to see if they supply code...but they most likely only officially support RHEL.
[16:58] <dominicdinada> no support as in ZERO none NULL zip
[16:58] <mneptok> Halkus: not the -server install disk
[16:58] <gogeta> bethdo97: humm gotta be a reasion its not seeing it
[16:58] <dominicdinada> and it works like crap, is their a better alternative ?
[16:58] <induz> maco, i have deleted the .gtkpod folder too
[16:58] <gimpy4613> mneptok: LiveCD is not a garuntee though, I've seen cards seem ok in there and give problems and heavier usage.
[16:58] <joshb> card works :)
[16:58] <joshb> thx
[16:58] <Gigabyte> hey how can i start apache and all that(i installed it)
[16:59] <sacarlson> bethdo97: I think you might have a problem partitioning the disk that you are booting from so you might still need the live cd or usb boot
[16:59] <dominicdinada> sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[16:59] <jrib> Gigabyte: it's started automatically by default
[16:59] <mneptok> Gigabyte: it's started by default when you install it
[16:59] <Halkus> Nothing on there for Ubuntu - http://www.adaptec.com/en-us/support/raid/sas_raid/sas-3805/
[16:59] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte:  sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart      or start or stop
[16:59] <bethdo97> gogeta: The hard drive showed right up in BIOS after installing but then the problem became formatting it.  Used WD tool but Win install didn't recognize the format done.  I even dug out my old MS Dos 7.2 discs and tried to format the disc to no avail.
[17:00] <gimpy4613> Halkus: Which Adaptec controller?
[17:00] <cousteau`nbk> isn't it better to use `service foo` rather than `/etc/init.d/foo`?
[17:00] <gogeta> bethdo97: maybe ubuntu can format it
[17:00] <Halkus> 3805
[17:00] <Dr_Willis> cousteau`nbk:  much better.
[17:00] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: now if you installed lammp its in your opt dir
[17:00] <bethdo97> Ubuntu at least got me up and running again after staring at the no operating message or the c: prompt for days
[17:00] <dominicdinada> lammp start
[17:00] <ZykoticK9> cousteau`nbk, "service" is the proper method.  /etc/init.d is the pre-upstart (old) method
[17:00] <ComradeHaz`> Gentlemen, 4c of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DisklessUbuntuHowto Please could you explain lines 2 to 4, do you think? It would probably suffice to tell me how I find that information on any given linux system.
[17:01] <Halkus> Google gives me the answer - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1409904
[17:01] <gimpy4613> Halkus: I've got a 3081E-R and it works fine for me.
[17:01] <cousteau`nbk> both work, but something about `service` doing `cd /` first
[17:01] <Dr_Willis> dominicdinada:  webmin was getting phased out of ubuntu and debian befor upstart was even implimented I belive.
[17:01] <Gigabyte> Database Error: Unable to connect to the database:Could not connect to MySQL ?
[17:01] <k4k> Does anyone here have an Asus motherboard with onboard HDMI and gotten it to work?
[17:01] <bethdo97> gogeta: The Win 7 installer finds partition and I select it, it is formatted in NTFS but when I go back to the installer it still says the same thing
[17:01] <k4k> in ubuntu I mean
[17:02] <nexeh> I have no sound in Ubuntu 10.04. Hardware shows up in sound preferences but nothing under input or output tabs. this was working previously and is something i most likely messed up... i could use some help. i have attached use info here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560302/
[17:02] <dominicdinada> Dr_Willis: funny alot of webmin still works just a few areas dont now ebox wants to take control of the system 100% and works like Sh*t and ZERO support
[17:02] <Dr_Willis> dominicdinada:  personally.. i dont use eitehr one.
[17:02] <bazhang> dominicdinada, watch the language please
[17:02] <Dr_Willis> dominicdinada:  webmin has also been noted for security issues in the past.  so use what you want.
[17:03] <antii> hmm
[17:03] <antii> where is inittab in ubuntu server?
[17:03] <dominicdinada> Dr_Willis: Security problems or not if i am blocking all inbound packets from outside the lan then whats the problem
[17:03] <gimpy4613> So anyone every experienced losing GTP tables randomly?
[17:03] <Gigabyte> hey Database Error: Unable to connect to the database:Could not connect to MySQL how to fix this error when i go to http://localhost
[17:04] <gimpy4613> antii: It doesn't use one. RHEL6 barely uses it either.
[17:04] <youngblood> jrib, I found it, it was mounted on /media. thanks for your help
[17:04] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: http://localhost/     hmmmm
[17:04] <Gigabyte> the same thing -.-
[17:04] <antii> gimpy4613: ok, u know where the ttys are located?
[17:04] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: did you install it correctly ? which package did you install the Tasksel, or apt/aptitude
[17:04] <gimpy4613> antii: I do not.
[17:05] <nexeh> gigabyte: try with the port 8080
[17:05] <nexeh> http:/localhost:8080/
[17:05] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: wait the database ? something is wrong if you just installed apache then it takes you to a html page that says HEY IT WORKS
[17:05] <Gigabyte> i installed lamp...yesterday it was working fine when i install it...but when i restarted my pc i get failure v
[17:06] <Gigabyte> i installed joomla
[17:06] <Gigabyte> :)
[17:06] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: the database issue is your own
[17:06] <nexeh> if you got the "hey, it works" hten your good on apache
[17:06] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: this is not a support for joomla nor other applications that extend the core ubuntu package see the joomla support for those problems
[17:06] <Tigger__> The Sound alert for new mail is not working on Thunderbird with 10.10 maverick... Any ideas anyone please?
[17:07] <Gigabyte> but mysql is for ubuntu?
[17:07] <Gigabyte> i installed it
[17:07] <nexeh> *cough* get rid of joomla *cough"
[17:07] <Gigabyte> how to run it again
[17:07] <Gigabyte> ?
[17:07] <FloodBot3> Gigabyte: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:07] <ProfessorBacon> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQjcrfL1_Ss
[17:08] <sacarlson> Gigabyte: I assume this is an application in appache2 at /var/www  ?  did you setup the user name and password in that application?  did you try install phpmyadmin?
[17:08] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: mysql is running your configuration on the database connection within joomla is not configured properly hence that is not an ubuntu problem nor anything we support
[17:08] <nexeh> I have no sound in Ubuntu 10.04. Hardware shows up in sound preferences but nothing under input or output tabs. this was working previously and is something i most likely messed up... i could use some help. i have attached use info here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560302/
[17:08] <JT13> is anyone familiar with installing an os in virtual box?
[17:08] <Dr_Willis> JT13:  its rather common task...
[17:08] <dominicdinada> personally i think joomla is awful google the thousands of security flaws within it
[17:09] <nexeh> JT13: ive done it in windows many times
[17:09] <BlueEagle> !anyone | JT13
[17:09] <Dr_Willis> JT13:  install vbox.. mount an iso in bbox.. boot it..
[17:09] <Dr_Willis> bbl
[17:09] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte:  personally i think joomla is awful google the thousands of security flaws within it
[17:09] <Gigabyte> i installed everything and all was fine,joomla was working no errors..... till i restarted my pc..
[17:09] <mello> hey, i got a question if i may, why is it good to use mdadm and LVM together?
[17:10] <nexeh> Gigabyte: have you checked to see if Mysql is running?
[17:10] <Gigabyte> i asked how to start it?
[17:10] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: THEN goto /var/www/    and find the index.php and rename it to indexback.php
[17:11] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: actually Your apache install is working fine it is once again your 3rd party app not being configured properly
[17:11] <JT13> nexeh,  ok here is my question about it. if i install via virtual box can i also install programs. example. i am running ubuntu 10.10 i wish to install my win 7 in virtual box, if i do can i install windows based programs inside the virtual box?
[17:11] <MaxKop> hello !
[17:11] <Gigabyte> i see all files
[17:11] <Gigabyte> what are on server
[17:11] <bethdo97> gogeta:  When I resize the partition, since the new hard drive is so large should I make 2 partiotions on e of about 50GB for Windows, keep to one for Ubuntu and a third for the remaining space as a file store for digital media stores and documents?
[17:11] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: it would not even try to connect to the database if apcache was not working correctly
[17:11] <nexeh> google simple thing like that and youll find stuuf like this : # To start MySql server:

[17:11] <nexeh> /etc/init.d/mysql stop

[17:11] <youngblood> jrib, when I cd to /media and then do ls command, this is what I see - "Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS i386". This is nothing like the file created when I did the download. I would have assumed that the file name on the CD would be the same as the filename. Can I use the the file name i see from the ls command?
[17:11] <Fatalnix> Trying to set up Wubi on this machine. Going for a seccond try. I installed it to my E:\ partition and ran a chkdsk /r, and when I rebooted it failed to find the ISO image even though it was clean?
[17:12] <dominicdinada> nexeh: sucks to be you bud
[17:12] <k4g6> JT13: once you instal windows 7 in virtual box you can boot into it and install programs just like normal
[17:12] <Fatalnix> and I looked-, it's in there
[17:12] <k4g6> JT13: what program are you looking to install?
[17:12] <nexeh> dominicdinada: normally... :P in what regards were you refering tho
[17:13] <k4g6> JT13: wait sorry didnt read the pre messages
[17:13] <JT13> k4g6 im unsure really. this laptop is my brothers and he was missing being able to play pc games as well as a few other windows only options so i am looking into the best way to give him the windows functionality back
[17:13] <dominicdinada> nexeh: he is looking for joomla support in here because he cant even install joomla properly cant wait to root his site :D
[17:13] <keyboarddrummer> Hello.  Are there any programs that will remove temporary files (like cookies or leftover from installs) to help free space on my hard drive?
[17:14] <Gigabyte> heh i know how to install it on web nad wamp
[17:14] <Gigabyte> xD
[17:14] <nexeh> dominicdinada: haha... its a learning curve we all must take sometimes, right? hehe
[17:14] <mkanyicy> nexeh, also 'sudo service mysql start|stop|restart' works
[17:14] <k4g6> JT13: either use linux alternatives, wine or just virtualise windows inside virtual box. its proberly best just dual booting windows though
[17:14] <dominicdinada> keyboarddrummer: sudo aptitude cache clear ?
[17:14] <Gigabyte> btw what do you think that is biste install pacage like joomla,dotnuke...
[17:14] <Gigabyte> ?
[17:14] <cuznt> try sudo apt-get --h
[17:15] <cuznt> or sudo aptitude -h
[17:15] <Gigabyte> *beste
[17:15] <nexeh> mkanyicy: oh yeah i recall using that now... i just gave him the first results in google for the point ....
[17:15] <JT13> k4g6 my personal laptop is dual boot with each os having a small partition and the remaining 600 gig as a shared mounted partition for media but he doesnt like the idea of dual boot for some reason
[17:15] <nexeh> now if i could find some help... id be good
[17:15] <nexeh> I have no sound in Ubuntu 10.04. Hardware shows up in sound preferences but nothing under input or output tabs. this was working previously and is something i most likely messed up... i could use some help. i have attached useful info here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560302/
[17:15] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: to be honest i would suggest WP of all of them you can find millions of extensions out there to make it conform to what you want. And I write my own
[17:15] <bethdo97> When I use the gpart on the live CD to resiize the hard drive for Windows 7 to be installed, should I do it like this-- Originall starting with 467gb all in 1 partition created when installing Ubuntu 10.10.  Shrink to Ubuntu partition to 25 gb and create 2 more partitions on of 25 gb for Win7 and on foor the rest of the space as a digital and document storage area?
[17:16] <k4g6> JT13: try to convince him otherwise just get him to use wine with the programs or just virtulise windows
[17:16] <keyboarddrummer> dominicdinada: I don't have aptitude.  I will try that once it installs.
[17:16] <dominicdinada> keyboarddrummer: their is also bleachbit
[17:16] <JT13> bethdo97,  yes that is correct
[17:16] <bethdo97> ok
[17:16] <brianBTB_> hi
[17:16] <JT13> k4g6 im thinking virtualize windows just trying to get a little feedback on it first
[17:16] <k4g6> JT13: virtualising will work fine for programs but obviously the frame rate will drop when playing games
[17:17] <bethdo97> the large third partition should be formatted how?
[17:17] <k4g6> JT13: i would go with virtulising with exception for the games
[17:17] <k4g6> JT13: or just find him games to play which run native
[17:17] <bethdo97> JT13: The large 3rd  partition should be formatted how?
[17:17] <JT13> well i doubt the frame rate will drop significantlly enough to hinder anything considering this has an i5 proccessor in it
[17:17] <k4g6> JT13: such as warsow, etc
[17:17] <JT13> fat3
[17:17] <JT13> bethdo97, fat3
[17:17] <Gigabyte> you write your own installation pacage
[17:17] <k4g6> JT13: even quake live
[17:17] <keyboarddrummer> dominicdinada: aptitude doesn't have "cache clear" there is autoclean though, which I am going to try.  I'm also going to try bleachbit.  Thank you
[17:18] <Gigabyte> ?
[17:18] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: i write my own sites in php/html    not good with javascript yet though
[17:18] <JT13> he likes his call of duty online play and there are no native games similar
[17:18] <JT13> k4^
[17:18] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: pick up a php book or three and teach yourself
[17:18] <azertyu> hello there
[17:18] <mello> hey, i got a question if i may, why is it good to use mdadm and LVM together?
[17:19] <JT13> k4g6, thank you for your help
[17:19] <keyboarddrummer> dominicdinada: Bleachbit appears to be what I want.  Thank you.
[17:19] <bethdo97> tjNot NTFS or ext4 like it is now?
[17:19] <youngblood> how can i mount a file with a name like this, " Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS i386"?
[17:19] <k4g6> JT13: find out what games he wants and check the winehq apps db
[17:19] <dominicdinada> keyboarddrummer: sorry bout the aptitude cache clear part i got 6tb of space so i don't need to worry about a few hundred megs here or there now on my laptop i use bleachbit
[17:19] <bethdo97> JT13: not ext4 like it is now or NTFS like it wiill bee in Win 7
[17:20] <JT13> bethdo97,  no ntfs is win and ext4 is linux fat3 is multi format so both os will read it
[17:20] <k4g6> JT13: probs ntfs so its accesible within windows and ubuntu
[17:20] <bethdo97> ok
[17:20] <Old_Spike0> What is the correct way to permanently disable a service from the command line (10.04) ?
[17:20] <azertyu> hello
[17:20] <azertyu> i installed ubuntu 10.10 server
[17:20] <keyboarddrummer> dominicdinada:  That's fine.  I wish I had that much space though.
[17:20] <JT13> no you want fat3 for shard storage k4g6
[17:20] <azertyu> and also installed ubuntu-desktop
[17:20] <azertyu> now my question is how to run gnome ?
[17:20] <dominicdinada> k4g6: depending on what install or what addons linux can read and write to fat/fat32 as well
[17:21] <bethdo97> k4g6: will it be accessable thru ntfs in both ubuntu and win7
[17:21] <JT13> k4g6 that way it is fully accesible from either win or linux
[17:21] <dominicdinada> keyboarddrummer: drives are cheap :)
[17:21] <Gigabyte> dominicdinada: can you give me a link
[17:21] <bethdo97> ok haven't tried this setup option set  yet
[17:21] <nexeh> dominicdinada: you think you could give me a hand with my sound?
[17:21] <Gigabyte> for good book to lear css and php
[17:21] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: for ?
[17:21] <bethdo97> I'l be back .....
[17:21] <JT13> if ntfs you won't be able to read and write from linux trust me bethdo97 i have three dual boot pcs set up the same way
[17:22] <dominicdinada> nexeh: I would not be able to help you as all the installs use only onboard audio and i have never had anyproblems :(
[17:22] <keyboarddrummer> dominicdinada: I know, but I want to upgrade soon anyway.
[17:22] <bastidrazor> JT13: ntfs is readable and writeable from Ubuntu
[17:23] <jrib> JT13: you can read and write ntfs
[17:23] <awanti> i want to remote login. Its located to other place but its in LAN.
[17:23] <JT13> bastidrazor,  k4g6 not on my dell. it wont allow root rights for an ntfs partition
[17:23] <dominicdinada> keyboarddrummer: if you are somewhat pc smart you could buy a barebones system from the local computer shop for a hundred or so and build up the drives and such i use mine soley as a file server so no fancy video or sound or network cards just SATA controllers and drives
[17:23] <bethdo97> k4k: JT13  what should I align to: cylinder MIB or none?
[17:23] <JT13> ntfs also doesnt support a broad enopugh compression to make it sensible for multimedia storage
[17:24] <JT13> none
[17:24] <JT13> bethdo97, none
[17:24] <k4g6> sorry i dropped out
[17:24] <jrib> JT13: what?
[17:24] <Gigabyte> dominicdinada: can you give me a link for good book php and css?
[17:24] <nexeh> dominicdinada: yeah that doesn't even work :P thanks anyways..
[17:24] <azertyu> how to run ubuntu desktop from cli ?
[17:24] <jrib> azertyu: sudo service gdm start
[17:24] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: sure thing. let me get those links
[17:24] <nexeh> Gigabyte: if you want a simple start you can always go with the headfirst books series... easy start to php/mysql
[17:25] <Gigabyte> well i want step by step(till i learnd all)
[17:25] <Gigabyte> :D
[17:25] <azertyu> if i run sudo service gdm start i got this : start: Job is already running: gdm jrib
[17:26] <jrib> azertyu: where are you now?  A tty?
[17:26] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: http://www.amazon.com/PHP-Absolute-Beginners-Jason-Lengstorf/dp/1430224738/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1296408364&sr=1-1-fkmr1
[17:26] <azertyu> no in paris jrib
[17:26] <keyboarddrummer> dominicdinada: That might be a possibility.
[17:26] <MaxKop> I want to know what motherboard I can use for ubuntu, who is the best, with entyre compatibility ?
[17:26] <azertyu> is there any matter my presence here ?
[17:27] <erUSUL> usually MB do not offer any problem
[17:27] <jrib> azertyu: in ubuntu.......
[17:27] <ikonia> MaxKop: there isn't a best
[17:27] <ikonia> azertyu: what ?
[17:27] <MaxKop> ok
[17:27] <k4g6> but yeah im off to bed guys. 4:30 here is aus
[17:27] <k4g6> goodnight
[17:27] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: that will teach you the basics and skip over the mysql because using mysql is like bad... if you want to learn start with the new stuff mysqli ( which is more secure or a pdo )
[17:27] <erUSUL> azertyu: wifi graphic cards could be problematic
[17:27] <ikonia> MaxKop: look at the chipsets on boards, see how they are in terms of compatabilty with linux
[17:27] <MaxKop> I wish to buy an extreme III
[17:27] <induz> hello can some one please help me reinstalling GTKPod 1.00 on Lucid please
[17:28] <azertyu> may be i don't get ur question jrib
[17:28] <induz>  i deleted it and now i want to start afresh with new iPOd touch
[17:28] <jrib> azertyu: what do you see on your screen?
[17:28] <dba_> hello all is there a way to regenerate my grub.cfg?
[17:28] <ikonia> induz: open the package manager remove it, re-install it
[17:28] <erUSUL> dba_: sudo update-grub
[17:28] <ikonia> dba_: update-grub should do it
[17:28] <dba_> erUSUL: thank you
[17:28] <dba_> ikonia: thank you
[17:28] <dominicdinada> keyboarddrummer: just remember settle for not cutting edge because there is a big price jump from fast and bleeding edge
[17:28] <bethdo97> dba_: which version  of ubuntu?
[17:29] <azertyu> nothing just the terminal on my screen  jrib
[17:29] <Gigabyte> dominicdinada: well i donwloaded first book for php what you gave...is there any easy for css?
[17:29] <dba_> erUSUL: ikonia will it update and add the second install of another linux install too?
[17:29] <replman> Hi! I would like to make a local backup of my googlemail email account (without deleting mails on the google-server). Therefore i installed getmail and configured a SimpleIMAPSSLRetriever. It seems that getmail always gets all mails from google instead doing an incremental update. How to do that?
[17:29] <dba_> bethdo97: 10.10
[17:29] <jrib> azertyu: press ctrl-alt-f7
[17:29] <ikonia> Gigabyte: dominicdinada this isn't really an ubuntu issue, maybe take it to #ubuntu-offtopic or ##php
[17:29] <erUSUL> dba_: it depneds on os-prober to detect it
[17:30] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: i never read a CSS tutorial but there are alot of issue
[17:30] <dominicdinada> ikonia: sorry
[17:30] <azertyu> no i m with an ssh  -X session on my server jrib
[17:30] <keyboarddrummer> dominicdinada: okay.  thanks.  got to go now.
[17:30] <awanti>  Hi. I need to login ubuntu server remotely. I am in different place. But that server is in LAN environment. So how could i login through ssh or any?
[17:30] <jo___> hey, samba-problem: I can access all my shares in xp but not in vista... you guy's know why?
[17:30] <ikonia> awanti: ssh is the most common option
[17:30] <jrib> azertyu: then you start whatever X app you want.  If you want to login to a gnome-session, then you want vnc, not ssh
[17:31] <dominicdinada> jo___: perhaps you didnt allow those ips, perhaps you bound it to the linux users and their isnt a user with the same credentials
[17:31] <induz> where is my /media/directory?.... where iPod is supposed to be  mounted
[17:31] <awanti> but that server is in the LAN. how could i...!
[17:31] <Gigabyte> how to open rar files?
[17:31] <ikonia> induz: that only happens when you plug a compatible device in
[17:31] <ikonia> !rar | Gigabyte
[17:31] <induz> do i have to tweak fstab
[17:31] <azertyu> i want to make link with ubuntu-desktop and no machine X
[17:31] <ikonia> induz: no
[17:31] <azertyu> how to do ? jrib
[17:31] <ikonia> awanti: ssh into the machine
[17:32] <jrib> !freenx | azertyu
[17:32] <erUSUL> awanti: you have to configure the router/gateaway to redirect the ssh port to your server
[17:32] <induz> ikonia, its iPodTouch 1st gen bacl 8 gb version with 1.1.4 s/w
[17:32] <Steve^> I installed phpmyadmin from aptitude and it works fine, but I can't find any link to it in /etc/apache2. How does it manage to work?
[17:32] <ikonia> induz: not sure why you are telling me that
[17:32] <jo___> dominicdinada: nothing of that sort. All ip's in the nat are allowed, I've put security=share.
[17:32] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: search the ubuntu apps and there are many programs that read and allow you to decompress rar files off the top of my head 7zip does but its cli, a few others
[17:33] <induz> ikonia, I thought u knew if this device is compatible or nOt./
[17:33] <azertyu> why no machine x not working well ? jrib
[17:33] <dominicdinada> jo___: my security is set to user
[17:33] <ikonia> induz: ipods are normally compatible if you have the software to read them
[17:33] <jrib> azertyu: did you read the link ubottu gave you?
[17:33] <sss> When I started Ubuntu 10.10 I got an error message: "The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_IndicatorApplet". Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration?".What is Indicator Applet, and why did it happen?
[17:33] <dominicdinada> jo___: perhaps post your smb.conf on pastebin taking out any passwords, or such so we can review it
[17:34] <bethdo97> dba_: Here is alink for grub 1 http://apcmag.com/how_to_dualboot_vista_with_linux_vista_installed_first.htm  ad here is for Grub 2 http://www.hackourlife.com/?p=2496&upm_export=html if you are using ubuntu 9.10 or later
[17:34] <jrib> azertyu: did you read the link ubottu gave you?
[17:35] <dominicdinada> Gigabyte: php really is the easiest language to learn as it is the most forgiving but at the same token once you learn, read up on security :P
[17:35] <azertyu> no okay
[17:35] <induz> ikonia, I am talking here about GTKPod
[17:35] <jo___> dominicdinada: http://pastebin.com/j1NeufAX

[17:58] <induz> is first gen black model 8 Gb suppotreted on GTKPOd??? how do i know it.. I am sure its not listed on its Model on GTKPo

[17:59] <AbhijiT> calum, no
[17:59] <AbhijiT> !grub2 | calum
[18:00] <knxville> what is the default network manager in ubuntu?
[18:00] <jrib> knxville: it's called "network manager"
[18:00] <calum> AbhijiT: What do I need to do to get grub2 to detect windows 7 in my /dev/sda2 partition?
[18:00] <AbhijiT> calum, noidea
[18:01] <jrib> calum: was windows not installed when you installed ubuntu?
[18:01] <Ener> Good evening !
[18:01] <compdoc> knxville, I dont think it uses the network manager by default
[18:01] <Rypervenche> I have a few Chinese fonts in ttf form that I would like to use on my Ubuntu 10.10. Most of them work fine, but a few refuse to work. How can I get them to work?
[18:01] <phibxr> calum, if you had it installed when installing grub2 it should have detected it by default, no?
[18:02] <calum> jrib: I installed windows xp in another partition then I reinstalled Ubuntu and ubuntu wont detect my windows 7 install
[18:03] <compdoc> seems every new version of windows uses a new version of ntfs
[18:03] <calum> the problem is I can boot windows xp but not windows 7 which is in partition 2

[18:03] <phibxr> calum, so you're triple-booting windows xp, windows 7 and ubuntu?
[18:03] <calum> yes
[18:04] <calum> windows xp is detected fine
[18:04] <phpmagician> how do I setup my bash profile so that the files I write automatically belong to another group?
[18:04] <phibxr> calum, my guess would be that the windows xp-install somehow screwed up the windows 7-boot, but I'll leave that to someone more knowledgeable about windows. :P
[18:05] <bluefrog> phpmagician, better have a look at acl
[18:05] <calum> phibxr: So I probably need to get xp to recognise windows 7 in its boot manager?
[18:06] <phibxr> calum, i wouldn't rule that out. but as I said, I know more about the internal workings of kitchen blenders than about windows, which would be next to nothing. :P
[18:06] <the-killer> anyone with any idea how to use 2 graphic cards SLI in BT / i have intel one and nvidia one and i want to use the nvidia coz grafic sux with intel :s

[18:07] <Rypervenche> I have a few Chinese fonts in ttf form that I would like to use on my Ubuntu 10.10. Most of them work fine, but a few refuse to work. How can I get them to work?
[18:07] <ubun> CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME. (SAMBA)   # cd source   # ./setup/provision --realm=YOUR.REALM --domain=YOURDOM \   #  --adminpass=SOMEPASSWORD --server-role='domain controller'  'YOURDOM' is the NT4 style domain name. 'YOUR.REALM' is your kerberos realm, which is typically your DNS domain name
[18:07] <the-killer> coz_ it is 2 cards in SLI !
[18:07] <calum> thanks for your help anyway phibxr
[18:07] <victor__> hello, how can i add a female voice at orca?
[18:07] <the-killer> coz_: computers asus doing it !
[18:08] <the-killer> GPU
[18:08] <coz_> the-killer, oh ok..  well you may want to go to #nvidia channel   .. you will have to hang out there  ,,it generally takes a while for someone to answer ..unless someone here has experience with SLI  + Ubuntu
[18:08] <em> does the Flip HD camera work with Ubuntu?
[18:08] <andreas_> does anyone know how to load the md drivers in ubuntu 10.04 LTS I just installed it and it doesn't seem to be there?
[18:09] <Araxis> Hey everyone, Ubuntu/Linux newbie here. I used Ubuntu for about 2 days and I formatted, leaving windows out of the equation. Now what? time to learn bash?
[18:09] <jrib> Araxis: do whatever you want, you don't have to learn bash if you don't want to
[18:10] <Kernel-Panic> Araxis: Ubuntu is pretty easy to use nowadays
[18:10] <Rypervenche> Araxis: Let me show you a really good PDF.
[18:10] <jordanm> andreas_: install mdadm
[18:10] <grkblood> whats some good webcam software that I can add text and pictures and stuff to my webcam
[18:10] <Araxis> :)  I love Ubuntu, it IS easy to use. And looks great.
[18:10] <hajmola> trying to boot ubuntu desktop liveUSB and i'm getting "no itin found. Try passing init= bootarg."
[18:10] <Ener> Here's some people ?
[18:11] <bazhang> Ener, yes
[18:11] <Araxis> I just ordered a new 6 core machine, can't wait to see how it performs on Ubuntu
[18:11] <em> Araxis: yeah learning about the command line and the things you can do from it is a good next step if your goal is to learn about Linux and Ubuntu.
[18:11] <Rypervenche> Araxis: http://linuxcommand.org/tlcl.php then click on "Download it here".
[18:11] <andreas_> I already did but when I do modprobe md it says there's o such module
[18:11] <Araxis> Rypervenche: Thanks! I'll get on there right now
[18:11] <hajmola> anyone know about "no init found"?
[18:11] <Ener> =x
[18:12] <Rypervenche> Araxis: And read it from beginning to end. You can skip some chapters if they're too advanced or boring for you, but make sure to read it from start to finish.
[18:12] <Araxis> Rypervenche: Definitely.
[18:13] <Araxis> Rypervenche: Is it worth going through the courses @ linux.org? I already read the beginners course but there is still an intermediate and advanced
[18:13] <andreas_> but thanks for the suggestion jordanm, appreciate any help I can get
[18:13] <ubun> how do i know if i have a nt4 style connection or a kerberos (or do they both apply)??
[18:14] <Rypervenche> Araxis: I have never used them, so I don't know.
[18:14] <jordanm> andreas_: md includes more than one module. just perform your raid operations. its smart enough to autoload modules as needed
[18:15] <andreas_> ok thanks I'll try that
[18:15] <jordanm> Araxis: if your goal is to use linux, then just use it and learn as you go. if you want to be a linux sysadmin, then I recommend starting with http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide
[18:16] <raj> hello I need a quick fix how do you reverse this command? take it back to what it was before i changed the settings? sudo chmod ugo-r libpulse-simple.so.0.0.3   thank you
[18:17] <victor__> hello, can anyone please give me a hint about how to change orca'a default male voice to female?
[18:17] <erUSUL> raj: subtitute ugo-r for ugo+r
[18:17] <andreas_> raj: sudo chmod ugo+r
[18:17] <jrib> raj: impossible to tell the state before.  But a good guess is to give everyone read permissions again

[18:19] <JT13> ok i have downloaded and installed the oracle vm virtual box to run my win 7. it created a "partition" and made it a folder but when i try to install the win 7 the virtual box gives me an error that i cannot install in this "folder" because it is in ext4 format. How do i change this to ntfs?
[18:20] <azertyu> how to install kde ?
[18:21] <andreas_> thanks jordanm it worked a charm :D
[18:21] <bazhang> azertyu, the package kubuntu-desktop

[18:22] <jordanm> azertyu: if its anything like debian then kde will become the default x-session-manager. no additional configuration required
[18:25] <JT13> ok i have downloaded and installed the oracle vm virtual box to run my win 7. it created a "partition" and made it a folder but when i try to install the win 7 the virtual box gives me an error that i cannot install in this "folder" because it is in ext4 format. How do i change this to ntfs?
[18:25] <ale_zano> #ubuntu-eeepc is empty! could anyone could help me?
[18:25] <jordanm> anyone else find it odd that ubuntu moves update-alternatives from /usr/sbin to /usr/bin?
[18:25] <ZykoticK9> ale_zano, what eee model?
[18:26] <ale_zano> asus R105
[18:26] <ale_zano> with ubuntu 10.10
[18:26] <jordanm> its pretty useless as a regular user...
[18:27] <nit-wit> JT13, how did you format to begin with
[18:27] <Ugons> Question: I'm on OS X as of now and I don't feel like partitioning my HD. I want to get an external HD to install ubuntu on, but I'm not sure which would be best. Any suggestions?
[18:27] <barf> Is grub-pc the same as grub2?
[18:27] <nit-wit> barbadillo, tes
[18:27] <barf> Ugons: Good suggestion
[18:27] <magicianlord> Ugons: it doesnt matter. you can get a 2.5 western digital for a low price
[18:27] <nit-wit> barf, yes
[18:27] <jordanm> barf: yes
[18:27] <magicianlord> Ugons: i have isntalled to an external drive
[18:28] <JT13> nit-wit the hard drive is ext4 but when creating the "folder for win7 it didnt give option to format
[18:28] <barf> Ugons: One HDD pr OS is good
[18:28] <jordanm> barf: version 1.98 is oddly enough, grub2
[18:28] <ale_zano> the internal mic doesn't work.. i try to find the resolution on forums but nothing!
[18:28] <magicianlord> jordanm: why
[18:28] <barf> jordanm: No wonder why I am confused
[18:28] <nit-wit> JT13, what folder
[18:28] <magicianlord> why is grub2 version 1.98?
[18:28] <Ugons> Alright, and to install to the external HD I basically follow the same installation process but just choose that as the location?
[18:28] <jordanm> magicianlord: you would have to ask the upstream developer
[18:28] <magicianlord> and who is that
[18:29] <barf> Is there a way to build the kernel with automatic optimization for the hardware where it is compiled?
[18:29] <nit-wit> JT13, all you have to do is build a michine launch it with thw windows ISO or cd and install.
[18:29] <JT13> nit-wit /home/josh/virtualbox/win se7en
[18:29] <vexati0n> Ugons: depends on how you want to do it. i run a copy of ubuntu on an external drive that i built from the liveCD so it boots and keeps its settings on any computer
[18:29] <barf> Where to install grub? On sda? or sda1?
[18:29] <nit-wit> JT13, is this a folder your building
[18:29] <erUSUL> barf: sda
[18:29] <ComradeHaz`> Hi all. Step 5 of 'Creating your NFS installation' on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DisklessUbuntuHowto ---- Can anyone tell me what I need to do with the more recent versions of Ubuntu?
[18:30] <nit-wit> JT13, or is this the machine folder
[18:30] <Ugons> So basically you can boot Ubuntu from any computer if you have the external HD with you?
[18:30] <nit-wit> Ugons, theoretically
[18:30] <magicianlord> Ugons: yes
[18:30] <pingbat__> halloo, i am trying to getacard reader on my laptop working but it isn't showing up under lsusb
[18:30] <ComradeHaz`> Ugons: any machine that supports boot from USB, yes.
[18:30] <ale_zano> I'm trying to use pulse but it don't connect to a network..
[18:30] <jordanm> magicianlord: looks like thats not easy to find because the copyright is assigned to the FSF
[18:30] <JT13> nit-wit one sec
[18:30] <vexati0n> Ugons: yeah, as long as the computer can boot from USB
[18:30] <Ugons> Well there is the issue about compatability but that's a different story.
[18:31] <nit-wit> JT13, sure
[18:31] <Ugons> And to double check, a MacBook Pro can, yes?
[18:31] <magicianlord> Ugons: make sure you select advanced in the partitioning scheme, and install grub2 to the external drive only, usually /dev/sdb
[18:31] <ComradeHaz`> Ugons: make sure you have a very simple graphixcs config and avoid proprietry graphics drivers
[18:31] <magicianlord> ComradeHaz`: good point
[18:31] <pingbat__> it might be pci or something more esoteric
[18:32] <vexati0n> ComradeHaz`: mine works fine even after setting up multiple monitors on one pc and moving to one without them. i have avoided nvidia blob and ati drivers tho
[18:32] <magicianlord> why is ubuntu 10.10 significantly faster when performing operations tahn 10.04? is this a result of hte newer kernel?
[18:32] <Ugons> thanks magicican, I wrote that down on a sticky for later.
[18:33] <magicianlord> ok
[18:33] <jordanm> magicianlord: what operations?
[18:33] <Ugons> People weren't lying when they said the community was helpful, thanks a lot everyone.
[18:33] <magicianlord> jordanm: apt. responsiveness in opening files. stuff like tha
[18:33] <owner> is there an easy way to switch from netbook to desktop?
[18:33] <sss> How do I change the order of the buttons of the window(exit, minimize, maximize)? I once found an guide for that but I can't find it
[18:33] <vexati0n> the ubuntu community is helpful. one time i tried asking for help in #slackware and somebody sent me a dead cat in the mail.
[18:33] <magicianlord> owner: yes, in the gdm login screen, at the bottom, select desktop session
[18:34] <Ugons> how sweet
[18:34] <JT13> nit-wit may i pm?
[18:34] <owner> wutt. thanks i'll try that
[18:34] <LinuxNoob> am i in the right channel x_x

[18:36] <LinuxNoob> wrote over my recovery partition, and computer wont do shit
[18:36] <LinuxNoob> so..i formated the harddrive..
[18:36] <ComradeHaz`> lol :D

[18:37] <LinuxNoob> i dont have a win7 cd
[18:37] <LinuxNoob> and to reinstall the drivers on my labtop(for mb, gcard,w/ew/e/we
[18:37] <ComradeHaz`> If you formattedthe hdd completely the recovery partition is gone
[18:37] <LinuxNoob> the driver cd requires win7 to run
[18:37] <ComradeHaz`> that is that.
[18:38] <LinuxNoob> my question is how can i put the drivers on my comp and then put xp and linux on the hdd
[18:38] <Araxis> LinuxNoob: Just use Ubuntu!! It's great :)
[18:38] <LinuxNoob> i cant put ubuntu on it, cause my comp doesnt have the drivers..
[18:38] <ComradeHaz`> LinuxNoob: OS comes first, then drivers/
[18:38] <magicianlord> LinuxNoob: you need windows 7 back on the computer, and it was only on the recovery partition?
[18:38] <ComradeHaz`> First decision is what OS's you want on there

[18:44] <DrummerBoy38> to verify the kernel version changed what is the cheat code in the console or w/e
[18:44] <swazzy> any web site that helps using command line?

[18:47] <KM0201> LinuxNoob: did you figure out your problem?
[18:47] <KM0201> there's a fairly easy solution
[18:47] <digirak> guys
[18:48] <LinuxNoob> what is it o_o
[18:48] <dylan_> i use awn!
[18:48] <digirak> can u tell me why i get this error
[18:48] <LinuxNoob> comrad is helpin me, but all help is wanted
[18:48] <digirak> CMake Error: The source directory "/home/kde-devel/kde/src" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.

[18:48] <KM0201> LinuxNoob: well, let him help you.. if you need another opinion/point of view... lemme know.. but this should be very easy to resolve
[18:48] <kstar66> dylan_ did you have any issues loading apps using the drag method?
[18:48] <swazzy> on command line
[18:49] <dylan_> yes actually
[18:49] <dylan_> just launch the app, right click on the icon and select add launcher
[18:49] <kstar66> did u just load the awn launcher under applets to resolve this issue?
[18:49] <grumbel> Is it possible to obtain older versions of a .deb in a PPA?
[18:49] <magicianlord> swazzy: check the manual pages on ifconfig and iwconfig. man ifconfig, for example
[18:49] <dylan_> its a workaround, but its enough for me
[18:49] <kstar66> gotcha, let me hit it.
[18:49] <swazzy> ok
[18:50] <magicianlord> you can connect wirelessly through terminal. also read the arch linux wiki. they have good steps documented on doing things manually, without gui
[18:50] <swazzy> ok
[18:50] <clavin12> I ran module-assistant auto-install with no module specified and now it is installing them all. How might I undo this without going through them one by one?
[18:50] <dylan_> anybody think they could help me with my sound? it was working previously, but now I can only hear faint static when it's fully turned up.
[18:51] <magicianlord> dylan_: the alsamixer didnt work?
[18:51] <dylan_> yeah no luck
[18:51] <dylan_> nothing is muted
[18:51] <magicianlord> hmm ok. that can be tough to figure out
[18:51] <dylan_> although one strange thing noted
[18:51] <Musigreg> Hi all!
[18:51] <g_o_o> !sound | dylan_
[18:51] <dylan_> the two headphone lines are at 00 and have no bars above them like speaker and master
[18:52] <Musigreg> I'd like to know if it's possible to change the TTY1 graphics resolution. I saw a lot of things on the web, but nothing explains how to do it exactly. Does someone know?
[18:52] <magicianlord> dylan_: did you raise them up? which version of ubuntu isthis
[18:52] <digirak> guys can someone help me with the cmake issue
[18:52] <dylan_> 10.10, i can't raise them
[18:52] <g_o_o> dylan_: in alsamixer push the up arrow to increase the volume
[18:52] <ComradeHaz`> Gentlemen! Step 5 of 'Creating your NFS installation' on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DisklessUbuntuHowto ---- Can anyone tell me what I need to do with the more recent versions of Ubuntu?
[18:52] <dylan_> tried that, nothing happens
[18:53] <dylan_> but on the Speaker line, when i press the up arrow, only the graphics inside the rectangular box move up and down
[18:53] <dylan_> for the headphone lines, there is no rectangular box
[18:53] <dylan_> if that makes sense
[18:53] <magicianlord> dylan_: im not sure then. my next step would be to google it along with 10.10 in the search, and if you cant find anything, put ina bug ticket with your specific hardware. also, try booting into the desktop with a live session of 10.4.1 and see if the bug persists
[18:53] <DexterF> !pulse
[18:54] <clavin12> I'm trying to use module assistant to install the nvidia module but it cannot locate the nvidia-kernel-source
[18:54] <dylan_> oo trying 10.4.1 could be fun
[18:54] <DexterF> I'd prefer uninstall instructions....
[18:54] <magicianlord> you cant uninstall pulseaudio easily in ubuntu
[18:54] <clavin12> how might I add to the source.list?
[18:54] <magicianlord> clavin12: in synaptic, sources from the menu
[18:55] <dylan_> ookay, thanks anyway magician
[18:55] <clavin12> magicianlord: alright.
[18:55] <magicianlord> sorry
[18:55] <dylan_> i've actually uninstalled and reinstalled already i think
[18:55] <magicianlord> ok
[18:55] <magicianlord> you can also try 10.4.1 like i said, or debian 6

[18:59] <magicianlord> clavin12: what are you trying to do?
[18:59] <Musigreg> I'd like to know if it's possible to change the TTY1 graphics resolution. I saw a lot of things on the web, but nothing explains how to do it exactly when it comes down to Grub2. Does someone know?
[19:00] <clavin12> magicianlord: I'm trying to install the nvidia module.
[19:00] <magicianlord> clavin12: then just use the hardware installer from the menu: system, administration, additional drivers
[19:00] <erUSUL> sss: do "/msg ubottu man" and query the bot in private
[19:01] <magicianlord> make sure you're connected to the net
[19:01] <erUSUL> !botabuse > sss
[19:01] <bethdo97> Is anyone here familiar with EasyBCD or ireboot by NewSmart Technologies and could recommend one or the other as a means to easily boot a dual installed system witth Windows 7 and Ubuntu
[19:02] <bethdo97> Want to put somethig simple onto my son's laptop to maake it idiot proof for him to switch between systems
[19:02] <kane77> hi, how can I automatize input in bash scripts? for instance I want to use gpg to encrypt file in a script and I want it to be automatized, so the script would fill the password automatically
[19:02] <SpinachHead> if I installed gnome I need to add the kubuntu repos to install kde ?
[19:02] <erUSUL> SpinachHead: no
[19:02] <magicianlord> SpinachHead: do you want both or just gnome?
[19:02] <clavin12> magicianlord: ok so the driver for my card is installed but I can only run in failsafe mode. btw, i failed to mention earlier that I am running mint 10.
[19:03] <SpinachHead> I want both, but I need 4,6
[19:03] <SpinachHead> 4.6
[19:03] <magicianlord> clavin12: is nouveau blacklisted?
[19:03] <clavin12> magicianlord: How do you mean?
[19:04] <ComradeHaz`> "add required module names in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules (module names for your network adapters, like forcedeth or tulip) " What are these module names and how do I establish on a running system what they are?
[19:04] <bethdo97> When I  did my Gparted partition sizing I created 3 partitions One for Ubuntu on for Windows 7 and one ffor storage.  What do I have to do to make both the Windows and the Ubuntu systems be able to access the 3rd storage partition
[19:04] <SpinachHead> okay, so I can install 4.6 without kubuntu repos?
[19:05] <bethdo97> Will it be given a different drive letteer somehow?  And if so how
[19:05] <magicianlord> clavin12: when you install nvidia from jockey, it should install and blacklist nouveau, the open source driver. if it didn't, i would uninstall nvidia and try again
[19:05] <erUSUL> ComradeHaz`: "lsmod" list all the currently loaded modules
[19:05] <clavin12> magicianlord: I will try that.
[19:05] <erUSUL> ComradeHaz`: modules are linux drivers they are in /lib/modules/
[19:06] <magicianlord> clavin12: it's hard to tell without see what's going on. i've installed nvidia both manually and using jockey in 10.10
[19:06] <magicianlord> i can tell you how to do it manually too
[19:07] <ale_zano> hello. could someone help me to fix the microphone problem?
[19:07] <clavin12> magicianlord: I usually prefer the gui.
[19:07] <ComradeHaz`> hmm, ok erUSUL, can you look at the context of my question and advise further on a guide I am following.
[19:07] <KM0201> bethdo97: usually, as long as its NTFS.. Windows and Ubuntu should read/write it natively.. the thing is though, what you're doing is unecessary.... as ubuntu can just read/write directly with your "main" C: partition... or am i missing some reason to keep it all on a 3rd partition?
[19:07] <erUSUL> ComradeHaz`: what guide?
[19:07] <magicianlord> clavin12: yes, and it keeps across kernel upgrades
[19:08] <ale_zano> pulse audio don't work and the alsamixer don't have "00" under mic boost
[19:08] <patrunjel> hi everywone
[19:09] <ComradeHaz`> erUSUL: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DisklessUbuntuHowto My question stems from the first of the 'Gotchas' at teh bottom.
[19:09] <clavin12> magicianlord: So i hit remove driver, and it is now deactivated.
[19:09] <samtorch> hi
[19:10] <bethdo97> He manages 2 Christian Bands and does fille serving occasionally at conferences etc foor fans and possible job opportunities for the bands.  He wanted a separate file store, on the laptop as opposed to a sseparate portable hard drive.  That was one of the reasons we got such a large hard drive for the replacement one
[19:10] <clavin12> magicianlord: ought i to simply hit activate or completely remove it some how?
[19:10] <patrunjel> basicaly, what i want is to watch anime online (like on youtube/other websites) from the bed, and if i fall to sleep, the computer to shut down automaticaly (like 2 hours after i set the "timer" or something like that).Can you guys give me a solution?
[19:10] <samtorch> when i start using gn3 in ubuntu my cpu start to reach 100% load why ? and how to to fix this
[19:10] <makketota> Hey, I'm trying to make a bootable Windows 7 usb in Ubuntu but the "Startup disk creator" only seems to support ubuntu. Please help :)
[19:10] <erUSUL> ComradeHaz`: well find out what modules your network card(s) use
[19:10] <DThought> patrunjel: on the console (terminal) type "sudo shutdown -h 2h"
[19:10] <bethdo97> He didn't want someone downloading the media files to be able to access anything else while they were doing it
[19:11] <samtorch> when i start using gn3 in ubuntu my cpu start to reach 100% load why ? and how to to fix this
[19:11] <ZykoticK9> ale_zano, I have NO idea if this will work with your model (but this fixes internal mic on my EEE 1005PE) http://paste.ubuntu.com/560332/  there are two versions, try the first one first
[19:11] <ComradeHaz`> erUSUL: how exactly do I do that?
[19:11] <patrunjel> DThought, and will everything automaticaly close? (in windows i had to close everything with "end now" )
[19:12] <erUSUL> ComradeHaz`: « lshw -C Network | grep driver » you should see a few lines having driver=somethinghere
[19:13] <bethdo97> KM0201:  I fforgot to preface my response to you with your username
[19:13] <makketota> Is there any program for making bootable Windows USB from iso in Ubuntu?  The startup disk creator only seems to work for Ubuntu .iso files
[19:13] <erUSUL> ComradeHaz`:  « sudo lshw -C Network | grep -o driver=.* | cut -f1 -d' ' »
[19:14] <ComradeHaz`> erUSUL: thanks alot.
[19:14] <erUSUL> ComradeHaz`: this is a common one driver=r8169
[19:14] <xangua> makketota: you should see #windows
[19:14] <erUSUL> ComradeHaz`: so the  modulename you need to add is "r8169"
[19:15] <bethdo97> KM0201: Do you know how I make that partition accessible to both.  I didn't format it in NTFS though, it was suggested much earlier tto formmat it in FAT32.  Should I change it NTFS after  Windows gets done installing?
[19:15] <makketota> xangua: But I'm using Ubuntu for making this usb though , are you sure they will have an answer for it on #windows?
[19:15] <barf> I made an install like this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux#Without%20CD now how do I make my keyboard no?
[19:15] <DThought> pepe_curdele: shutdown -h <time> is a system command. all running commands will be ended without having them to opt for save or similar
[19:16] <rumpe1> makketota, unetbootin
[19:16] <makketota> rumpel: thanks
[19:16] <ComradeHaz`> erUSUL: it returns e1000 on the machine I'm playing with atm, that sound OK?
[19:16] <bethdo97> Is anyone familiar with BCDEasy or iReboot by Neosmart Tech as a way to setup the dual boot?
[19:17] <justinsane> hello
[19:17] <xangua> rumpe1: that's only for linux distros
[19:18] <rumpe1> xangua, ah.. k
[19:18] <ComradeHaz`> also erUSULhow do I specify that in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
[19:18] <justinsane> I'm having wireless issues. I've read through the Ubuntu Wiki, nothing...

[19:20] <KirkMcDonald> I recently installed Ubuntu Server 10.10 to a machine which has no video.
[19:21] <justinsane> PLZ HELP: I can't connect to my router!
[19:21] <clavin12> magicianlord: upon rebooting I got a plain text linux mint splash screen, then some terminal type stuff, and finally blinking caps lock and scroll lock. That is a kernel panick no?
[19:21] <Slayer> hey guys!!!
[19:21] <KirkMcDonald> Now I want to install vlc on it, which depends on X.
[19:21] <Musigreg> Nobody knows?
[19:21] <barf> how can I set my keyboard encoding in CLI?
[19:22] <KirkMcDonald> Can I expect problems installing X when the system has no video?
[19:22] <justinsane> how can i tell if my network adapter is working correctly?
[19:22] <s0enke> hi
[19:23] <s0enke> what's te
[19:23] <Slayer> I am unable to enable compiz ettings, though I have installed graphics driver
[19:23] <s0enke> what's the magic key to enter the grub menu since there is no menu displayed anymore?
[19:23] <justinsane> how can i tell if my network adapter is working correctly?
[19:23] <tull> KirkMcDonald, i suppose that you install it from anothert pc
[19:23] <Slayer> justinsane- try to ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[19:24] <s0enke> Slayer, that just checks the lo interface
[19:24] <KirkMcDonald> tull: I put a video card in the machine for the purposes of installing the OS, then removed the video card once I could ssh in.
[19:25] <spt_> Hello folks, could someone tell me whats the best media srever software to stream from ubuntu server10.10 to ps3? - thanks
[19:25] <clavin12> magicianlord: I rebooted in recovery mode and chose reconfigure X
[19:25] <barf> Why does it take 10 secs from I hit enter on a sudo command until it asks me for my password?
[19:25] <KirkMcDonald> spt_: Funny you should ask. I am in the process of setting up that very thing.
[19:25] <barf> I followed this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux#Without%20CD
[19:26] <KirkMcDonald> spt_: My current plan is to use ps3mediaserver: http://code.google.com/p/ps3mediaserver/
[19:26] <marienz> KirkMcDonald: did you find vlc-nox?
[19:26] <tull> KirkMcDonald, i think but not sure that you can install X, but it doesn't work without a graphic card
[19:26] <KirkMcDonald> marienz: Ah! That looks like a thing.
[19:27] <marienz> KirkMcDonald: it is, indeed, a thing!
[19:27] <KirkMcDonald> tull: Obviously X won't work. I just want to use vlc on the command-line. vlc-nox looks like what I want.
[19:27] <clavin12> magicianlord: I selected new configuration for this hardware and still got the plain text splash.
[19:27] <ProgrammerJoel> .
[19:27] <spt_> thanks Kirk
[19:27] <ProgrammerJoel> well hey guys this is my first time ever on a irc chat
[19:27] <clavin12> magicianlord: now all I have is terminal.
[19:27] <tuzlo> I just tried installing Ubuntu on a Dell Poweredge 1850, perc 4e raid controller, but it doesnt seem to get far in the installation. Are there any known problems with this machine and ubuntu?
[19:28] <tull> KirkMcDonald, what do you want to do with vlc-nox?
[19:28] <KirkMcDonald> tull: Ultimately I want to use ps3mediaserver to stream video to my PS3.
[19:28] <clavin12> When I try to start X it say fatal: module nvidia not found.
[19:28] <clavin12> says*
[19:29] <NixGeek> clavin12: it sounds like x is tryin to use a nvidia driver you don't have
[19:29] <ubuntuCEO> hi, in ubuntu 10.10, how do I look at the error screen when loading ubuntu?
[19:29] <clavin12> ubuntuceo: but I just installed it in failsafe mode.
[19:30] <steinex> ubuntu + elementary-theme + elementary-nautilus + docky + faenza-icons = pure awesomeness.
[19:30] <ubuntuCEO> because i know there is some error, but it doesnt show the loading process like the old one does
[19:30] <clavin12> ubuntuceo: oops, srry. I meant NixGeek.
[19:30] <justinsane> i ran a lsmod and under "used by" column it says "0"
[19:30] <justinsane> what does this mean?
[19:30] <clavin12> NixGeek: but I just installed it in failsafe mode, with jockey.
[19:30] <steinex> justinsane: its not needed by any other module
[19:31] <clavin12> Nixgeek: iirc
[19:31] <NixGeek> what is your graphics card?
[19:31] <NixGeek> clavin12: what is your graphics card?
[19:31] <justinsane> Steinex: so if it's 0, should i be worried that i don't have a driver for my netword adapater?
[19:31] <justinsane> network*
[19:31] <clavin12> NixGeek: lspci gives me Nvidia corporation nv5m64
[19:32] <steinex> justinsane: that it's 0 doesn't mean anything. if your network driver works, fine ... ;-)
[19:32] <ubuntuCEO> is there a way to diagnose hard disk error in ubuntu?
[19:32] <clavin12> Nixgeek: Riva TNT2 model 64.
[19:33] <justinsane> steinex: i'm having trouble connecting to my router. it finds it but can't connect to it... just recently had this problem
[19:33] <bullgard4> GParted on a live CD cannot move a partition. e2fsck did not report an error. What hdparm command should I use to check thiis problem further?
[19:34] <NixGeek> clavin12: man, is your graphics card ancient....
[19:34]  * izinucs is going crazy trying to grab the edge of a window for resize
[19:34] <drt39193> Hello, how can i manually resolve domain name on the local machine, without it querying a dns server?
[19:34] <clavin12> NixGeek: lol probably.
[19:34] <izinucs> drt39193: put it in /etc/hosts  .. a line like <IP_ADDRESS>   server ... then you can ssh with ssh server@server
[19:35] <drt39193> izinucs: ok, thank you
[19:35] <izinucs> drt39193: sure.. actually it'd be ssh <username on server>@server
[19:35] <NixGeek> clavin12: you should probably remove the nvida driver and stick with vesa for that card, or upgrade
[19:36] <justinsane> how do i establish an access point with my router?
[19:36] <clavin12> nixgeek: alrighjt
[19:36] <izinucs> clavin12: if you look on nvidia site in the linux driver section you can find out which driver works with that card then load it from Synaptic..
[19:37] <clavin12> izinucs: I suppose. I will try it.
[19:37] <izinucs> clavin12: most likely it's the 96 driver but I could be wrong
[19:37] <NixGeek> clavin12: actually, remove the driver you installed and then try this driver, strait from nvidia: http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/71.86.14/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-71.86.14-pkg1.run
[19:37] <nonix4> hrm, looks like Maverick installer wiped one of my LVM data volumes instead of the swap volume, when asked to use 2nd swap. Good thing I refreshed backups properly before installation :)
[19:38] <clavin12> NixGeek: ok
[19:38] <justinsane> how do i establish an access point with my router?
[19:40] <bucky> clavin12, did you try the nvidia-glx-legacy package in synaptic
[19:41] <justinsane> how can i connect to a network?
[19:41] <nonix4> How do I set cryptswap to point to correct swap device instead of my /home ?
[19:41] <DrummerBoy38> strange how ubuntu is affected during this egypt stuff
[19:42] <bucky> justinsane, type ifconfig in a term.. does it show something other than lo ?
[19:42] <DrummerBoy38> ubuntu should run at full capacity even if in egypt?
[19:42] <clavin12> bucky: no I didn't
[19:42] <justinsane> bucky: yes, eth0, eth1, wlan0
[19:43] <feyd> I know totem can be integrated with chromium, but can mplayer replace totem for the browser?

[19:44] <allballs> Good afternoon. I just acquired a shiny new PCI sata controller. SiL3114. Ubuntu's (nee Redhat) sees it, in Disk Utility, but, it doesn't see the two drives I have plugged into it. I have a shiny new Thermaltake external drive dock with two sata drives in it. They don't show up.
[19:44] <allballs> HOwever(!) -- When I plug the USB cord into the Thermaltake, voila, there are my drives.
[19:44] <allballs> So, why does disk util see my controller, but not my drives? Ideas?
[19:44] <justinsane> bucky: network is unreachable
[19:44] <pankajm> how do i change my apache http folder to a home folder?
[19:45] <allballs> pankajm: enable userdir mod
[19:45] <nm5tf> is there a separate channel for Ubuntu games???
[19:45] <allballs> such that you can then do ~/public_html -> http://myserver/~myuser
[19:45] <bucky> justinsane, do you have an ethernet cable hooked up or are you trying to do wireless?  try sorting it out in System > Administration > Network Tools
[19:45] <justinsane> bucky: wireless only.
[19:46] <bucky> justinsane, you're going to need more packages prolly
[19:46] <justinsane> bucky: sorting it out how?
[19:46] <bucky> justinsane, point and click
[19:46] <allballs> pankajm: sudo a2enmod userdir && sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload or similar
[19:46] <justinsane> bucky: i've had no problem for about 5 months...
[19:46] <justinsane> bucky: all of a sudden i can't connect...
[19:46] <Mr_White> hi
[19:46] <bucky> hmm... dunno
[19:47] <justinsane> k thx
[19:47] <NixGeek> Why do newegg and firefox not like eachother in ubuntu 10.04?  newegg will load in chromium, but it just loads forever in firefox.

[19:53] <justinsane> could ipv6 be messing up my ipv4 connection?
[19:53] <Shawn> well that can work
[19:53] <Shawn> anything to keep it from ever going idle
[19:53] <allballs> i mean... you could do... "while true; do echo 'blah'; done", and that would keep your CPU doint something...
[19:53] <rewt> justinsane, i doubt it
[19:53] <Shawn> I don't need a specific method

[20:02] <drt39193> Shawn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560347/
[20:02] <rewt> so you have an entry that's destination=<IP_ADDRESS>, gateway=<IP_ADDRESS>, genmask=<IP_ADDRESS>, flags=U ?
[20:02] <_`-`> QoD: /cl
[20:02] <_`-`> ..oops
[20:02] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> hey guys

[20:03] <catfish> hi, i need v1 of libmowgli.so.1 - audacious won't start anymore with out it
[20:03] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> any way to check the contents of my MBR?
[20:03] <Chalkie1983> Hi people, i have a vps with ubuntu 10.04, it only has ssh access, is there a way for me to enable remote desktop or some kind of vnc access?
[20:03] <drt39193> chmod +x filename to make it executable,
[20:03] <catfish> where and how can i get it?
[20:03] <user124e242> hi.i went to change my partitions size and lost my partition table, not being able to start my system as it says no system found..can anyone tell me what i can do to restore it?
[20:03] <QoD> _`-`: that didn't help. :D
[20:03] <Shawn> drt39193:  so I just type those into the terminal one at a time?
[20:04] <Shawn> or copy and paste the whole?
[20:04] <catfish> user124e242, try parted and/or testdisk from a live cd
[20:04] <petko> fuuu, neviem či my tu vie niekto poradiť či je tu daky slovak alebo čech, chcel by som len či nevie niekto akym prikazom sa dostanem do koša, mam ubuntu
[20:04] <drt39193> Shawn: noo   put all that in a text file
[20:04] <drt39193> Shawn: its a script
[20:04] <drt39193> Shawn: then do   chmod +x filename
[20:04] <user124e242> catfish: ok. thank you.If that dont work?
[20:04] <Shawn> I don't need to type a path?
[20:05] <drt39193> Shawn: and   sudo mv /usr/local/bin/filename
[20:05] <francis__> I have an ethernet internet connection on my laptop, how can I give off a wireless connection that others can connect to?
[20:05] <drt39193> Shawn: put it somewhere in your path, like /usr/bin/  or /usr/local/bin/
[20:06] <QoD> no one can help?
[20:07] <catfish> user124e242, you have to try it and study a bit as well
[20:07] <fridgerator> I believe people may be attacking my home network,  is there channel i can find to get help on this?
[20:07] <gobbe> QoD: what do you mean that you cannot set permissions, do you get error-message?
[20:07] <allballs> QoD: what are you trying to do?
[20:07] <user124e242> catfish: ok. thank you
[20:07] <catfish> np ;)
[20:07] <drt39193> fridgerator: #security ?
[20:07] <Shawn> drt39193:  Permission denied
[20:08] <drt39193> Shawn: dude use sudo
[20:08] <Shawn> to move it into /usr/bin
[20:08] <rumpe1> fridgerator, wlan? which encryption? why do you believe, it is under attack?
[20:08] <drt39193> Shawn: sudo mv filename /usr/local/bin/
[20:08] <Shawn> how do I move a file from the terminal?
[20:08] <_java_> Fridge, you mean like a DDOS or a human opponent?
[20:08] <QoD> i store a c++ project on the usb hdd
[20:08] <_`-`> Shawn: mv
[20:08] <Shawn> sorry, I'm not use to this
[20:08] <catfish> user124e242, testdisk is able to recovery almost every lost partion as long as it has not been rewritten
[20:08] <Shawn> ah
[20:08] <Shawn> ah, I think I get it
[20:09] <justinsane> how do i add a default route?
[20:09] <gobbe> justinsane: with route-command
[20:10] <QoD> gobbe: with gnome when i set the file permission through "property->permission", it unsets itself automatically
[20:10] <kstar66> can anyone help me with the command line to run a upgrade for iceweasel??
[20:10] <gobbe> QoD: what happens if you do it from terminal?
[20:10] <rumpe1> justinsane, route add default gw <ip-of-router>   (afaik)
[20:10] <fridgerator> rumpel when i turn on my firewall in ubuntu with firestarter i can view the events tab, and more than a dozen times every minute i get events from 3 or 4 different IP addresses...  Just now i was looking at the UPNP tab in my router config, and there was a serivice called Teredo enabled to my laptop running windows 7 that i never started
[20:10] <justinsane> route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS> says SIOCADDRT: Operation Not Permitted...
[20:10] <gobbe> justinsane: sudo
[20:11] <Shawn> moving it isn't working
[20:11] <Shawn> I have the txt file 'H' on the desktop
[20:11] <rumpe1> justinsane, sudo
[20:11] <justinsane> just add sudo before it?
[20:11] <gobbe> justinsane: yep
[20:11] <gobbe> justinsane: but it's not permanent route add, if you want it permanent you need to add it to interfaces
[20:11] <QoD> gobbe: nothing happens and the permission is not set. the cmd i typed "chmod +x filename"
[20:12] <gobbe> QoD: what does it say?
[20:12] <fridgerator> _java_ rumpel is it normal to get more than a dozen events per minute in my events tab in firestarter?
[20:12] <justinsane> k i added it
[20:12] <Geko> hey guys i need some help i can seem to open my synaptic package manager. I get this error everytime E:Type 'sudo' is not known on line 65 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list'
[20:12] <j_ayen_green> given (loop0) (hd0) (hd0,1) (fd0) I don't know how to apply it to linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/sdXY loop=/ubuntu/disks/root.disk ro  ... I tried sd01, but the boot later failed saying there was no sd01
[20:12] <justinsane> gobbe: where can i permatnely add it?
[20:12] <QoD> gobbe: nothing, it just return to the terminal prompt
[20:12] <gobbe> QoD: aah, is it ntfs?
[20:12] <justinsane> because whatever i just did, didn't do much
[20:12] <QoD> gobbe: yess!
[20:12] <gobbe> QoD: ntfs doesn't support +x flag
[20:13] <rewt> justinsane: /etc/network/interfaces
[20:13] <gobbe> justinsane: interfaces-file in /etc/network
[20:13] <savage> Hey guys
[20:13] <QoD> gobbe: so no way to execute exe from my usb hdd?
[20:13] <Geko> anyone know hot to fix this problem
[20:13] <ZykoticK9> QoD, FYI fat & ntfs doesn't understand ANY unix permission
[20:13] <gobbe> QoD: format it to other filesystem than ntfs
[20:13] <Geko> i get an error when i open synaptic manager
[20:13] <Geko> E:Type 'sudo' is not known on line 65 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list'
[20:14] <savage> Im looking for a console text editor that behaves like Notepad, basically
[20:14] <rumpe1> Geko, open  /etc/apt/sources.list in editor... perhaps you accidently added a line with "sudo", which is no command in sources.list.
[20:14] <savage> where you can use shift+down and shift+left arrow to change your selection, for example.
[20:14] <savage> or shift+end
[20:14] <ZykoticK9> QoD, if you have a wine issue - you can use command line "wine /path/to/executable.exe" and it will work
[20:14] <Geko> can you tell me how to get into that directory rumpe
[20:14] <Geko> iam new to linux
[20:14] <QoD> ZykoticK9: but they understand rw permission, right?
[20:14] <Geko> and dont know alot
[20:15] <Geko> yet
[20:15] <FloodBot2> Geko: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:15] <gobbe> Geko: what do you have on line 65 in /etc/apt/sources.list
[20:15] <QoD> ZykoticK9: it's a unix program
[20:15] <ZykoticK9> QoD, no they don't
[20:15] <gobbe> QoD: no
[20:15] <rumpe1> Geko, alt-f2, "gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"
[20:15] <gobbe> QoD: ntfs doesn't support unix rights
[20:15] <justinsane> my interfaces file says stuff about eth0, i need wlan0
[20:15] <ZykoticK9> QoD, fat and NTFS are windows, not unix/linux file systems
[20:15] <QoD> gobbe: so how can i read/write files?
[20:15] <gobbe> QoD: it's feature with mount, you can mount it readonly or read-write
[20:16] <gobbe> QoD: but unix-permissions are not supported
[20:16] <_`-`> what's the difference between su, sudo, gksu, gksudo, etc? never quite worked that out =p my hunch is that gk*** does something with inheriting permissions..no idea really =p
[20:16] <gobbe> QoD: so format it with other filesystem
[20:16] <QoD> gobbe: so can i mount it with exec?
[20:16] <savage> I really missed the Windows style SHIFT + LEFT/RIGHT to select texts in text editor, is there a terminal text editor that can do that??
[20:16] <Geko> ok rumpe
[20:16] <Geko> iam in
[20:17] <jrib>  savage you may love vim then
[20:17] <Geko> now what am i looking for
[20:17] <_`-`> i've settled for vim when i'm forced to work from the terminal
[20:17] <_`-`> but make sure you read the basics and keep a cheat sheet =p
[20:17] <jrib> _`-`: "settle", I cry when I can't have my vim
[20:18] <wannabe> hey
[20:18] <Geko> rumpi what do i do next
[20:18] <rumpe1> Geko, line 65 or anything with the string "sudo" in it
[20:19] <_`-`> jrib: how many asm/c/c++/php projects do you multitask on at a time?
[20:19] <jrib> savage: if you're interested in vim, you can run « vimtutor » for a nice intro
[20:19] <Geko> i see this at the end sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
[20:19] <yeats> !gksudo | _`-`
[20:19] <justinsane> what should my etc/network/inferaces file read if i use wireless only?
[20:19] <jrib> _`-`: umm, I work on one project at a time...
[20:19] <rumpe1> Geko, well... then you made a mistake. Delete the line.
[20:19] <allballs> So, anyway. Anybody have a clue about my previous question about Sil3114 PCI SATA card and why my two drives don't appear?
[20:19] <Geko> kk
[20:19] <Geko> and push save
[20:19] <allballs> lspci shows the dev on the bus... Disk Util shows the device, but alas, no drives appear.
[20:19] <allballs> bollocks.
[20:20] <tuzlo> I just tried installing Ubuntu on a Dell Poweredge 1850, perc 4e raid controller, but it doesnt seem to get far in the installation. Are there any known problems with this machine and ubuntu?
[20:20] <Geko> rumpe then i just push save at the top
[20:20] <rumpe1> Geko, yes... save and quit
[20:20] <allballs> tuzlo: I run Ubuntu 10.04 on several dell 1850 boxes. Make sure you have latest BIOS
[20:20] <wannabe> tuzlo what is your problem exactly?
[20:21] <Geko> it worked rumpe thanks a bunch
[20:21] <yeats> tuzlo: Ubuntu server?  In any case, if you're doing the non-GUI install, you can do Alt-F4 to see log messages
[20:22] <alex2222> my realtek rtl8187se-wlan stops working randomly after some seconds/minutes. how can I debug whats wrong?
[20:22] <Geko> i have a question  iam trying to install this program called medeley
[20:23] <edbian> alex2222, Good starting point is to look at the output of dmesg
[20:23] <edbian> Geko, What's the question?
[20:23] <Geko> and it tells me to unzip the contents of the folder and run this command right when i run the command it tells me No such file or directory
[20:24] <edbian> Geko, You have to cd into the extracted folder
[20:24] <Geko> how do you do it ed
[20:24] <justinsane> why cant i modify the etc/network/inferfaces file? it wont let me save revisions...
[20:24] <edbian> Geko, where is the folder you extracted?
[20:25] <Geko> right on the desktop
[20:25] <edbian> justinsane, you have to be root to edit it
[20:25] <aeon-ltd> justinsane: you need sudo
[20:25] <edbian> Geko, open a terminal: cd Desktop/<folderName>
[20:26] <stillborn86> I'm having a problem getting multi-touch working an my asus 1005ha with 10.10.  can anyone help?
[20:26] <House> hello
[20:26] <alex2222> edbian, dmesg is empty, but this are the last lines from syslog: http://pastebin.com/9sjMYBxE
[20:26] <Wally42> Hello again
[20:26] <Geko> gave me same message
[20:27] <jrib> savage: apparently nano has some shortcuts too.  I have no idea where they are in the official documentation but here you go: http://dwabbott.com/nano.html
[20:27] <edbian> alex2222, dmesg is not a folder.  type the dmesg in a terminal and press enter.  Look near the end
[20:27] <tuzlo> wannabe, well, it's not installing
[20:27] <yeats> Geko: how did you download the zip file?  If through a browser, it will probably be in Downloads
[20:27] <edbian> Geko, Then you're not in the right folder or you made a typo.  Read this: http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/command_line_intro
[20:27] <Geko> i got in
[20:27] <Geko> it worked
[20:28] <edbian> Geko, great ")
[20:28] <alex2222> edbian, I did it, but there is nothing about the wlan
[20:28] <Geko> i didn't capitalize the d
[20:28] <Geko> ok
[20:28] <jrib> savage: oh, ^G in nano (built-in help) tells you about them :)
[20:28] <Geko> now what do i do
[20:28] <Geko> is it supposed to install
[20:28] <Wally42> I have reinstalled Windoze XP on a drive with 2 250G partions and it rewrote the boot info and I cannot access my unbuntu instalation
[20:28] <edbian> alex2222, I see no errors in the file you pastebined.  Accept that your wlan0 associated with the same ap 3 times in under a minute
[20:28] <Wally42> Can some one help
[20:29] <bullgard4> GParted shows at some partitions a patent key symbol. What does this symbol mean?
[20:29] <KM0201> !grub2 | Wally42
[20:29] <rewt> Wally42, boot with a livecd, and reinstall grub
[20:29] <rewt> or that ^
[20:29] <j_ayen_green> all of the examples for booting from grub show sdXY, but my /dev has no sdxx or hdxx files, just loop
[20:30] <Geko> yest i donwloaded throug browser
[20:30] <ChessTeach>  I am using Ubuntu, and when I resize a window I noticed that the area that my mouse has to drag it is very small. Is there a way to lower the needed accuracy? I hope this makes sense
[20:30] <yeats> Geko: I'm assuming the package came with a README file... have you read it?
[20:30] <alex2222> edbian, yes it says associated, but I can't reach the router via ping nor http
[20:30] <irisxavi> alguien de espa;ana
[20:30] <Geko> yes it said extract the contents and run this in the terminal
[20:30] <_`-`> ChessTeach: I believe it's theme/style dependent
[20:30] <edbian> alex2222, what does it say?  the packets are just all dropped or... ?
[20:30] <_`-`> There may be an option in gconf-editor for it
[20:30] <Geko> when i did i geave me message no such file or diretory
[20:31] <Wally42> Ubotta, will try that. rewt, i have tried several live CD and none have been success, i guess I have not found the right one, I tried all the 9 , 8mand 10 versions
[20:31] <alex2222> edbian, I think a recent update caused the problem
[20:31] <bullgard4> !es | irisxavi
[20:31] <ChessTeach> _`-`: so where do i go to change it
[20:31] <jrib> ChessTeach: you could always edit the theme if there's no easier way
[20:31] <edbian> ChessTeach, Change your theme.  Some themes have very thin borders around the windows (like 1px) and it is hard to grab.  I find it annoying too
[20:31] <DEAD_BEEF> I'm using a modified clearlooks theme and I want to remove the resize grip from the lower right corner. Can anyone help?
[20:31] <alex2222> edbian, I am using meerkat, but it worked until 2 or 3 weeks ago
[20:31] <jrib> DEAD_BEEF: art.gnome.org has a theming tutorial that would probably be helpful
[20:32] <kenjin2201> Every time I log in gnome, all of my settings are gone.
[20:32] <ChessTeach> i hate to sound like an idiot, but how do i change the theme? I imagine in preferences?
[20:32] <justinsane> how do i get super access and then modify the etc/network/interfaces file?
[20:32] <jrib> justinsane: why do you want to?  Why not just use network manager?
[20:32] <ChessTeach> oh appearance
[20:32] <aeon-ltd> !theme | ChessTeach
[20:32] <justinsane> i want to add "auto lo iface lo inet loopback"
[20:32] <yeats> Geko: can you pastebin the README file? (use http://goo.gl/ixcN9 ) then share the URL in channel?
[20:33] <Vendetta> justinsane: why do you need to add it if i may ask?
[20:33] <edbian> alex2222, what do you get when you try to ping?
[20:33] <Geko> yeats i figured it out
[20:33] <Geko> it works now
[20:33] <yeats> Geko: oh ogg
[20:33] <yeats> Geko: *good
[20:33] <justinsane> im trying to connect to my wireless network
[20:33] <Geko> thanks alot yeats
[20:33] <Geko> i apreciate the help
[20:33] <yeats> sure
[20:33] <ChessTeach> thanks guys
[20:33] <jrib> justinsane: also, are you sure that statement isn't already there?  It should be by default and has nothing to do with wireless afaik
[20:33] <justinsane> right now the interfaces file just says eth0 stuff..
[20:33] <DEAD_BEEF> jrib, thanks
[20:34] <Vendetta> dude i would strongly advice the network manager. if your using wpa
[20:34] <Vendetta> Justinsane: the statement should be there
[20:34] <justinsane> the interfaces file just says auto eth0, iface eth0 inet static ...
[20:34] <justinsane> nothing about wlan0
[20:34] <jrib> justinsane: what version of ubuntu is this?
[20:35] <justinsane> i think im using wep
[20:35] <justinsane> 10.10
[20:35] <jrib> justinsane: what did you install exactly?
[20:35] <Vendetta> standard ubuntu...
[20:35] <justinsane> my internet use to work, now it doesn't....
[20:35] <justinsane> nothing but updates...
[20:35] <justinsane> standard.
[20:36] <jrib> justinsane: did you modify this file previously?
[20:36] <justinsane> my network adapter sees my router
[20:36] <justinsane> no
[20:36]  * jrib finds this odd
[20:36] <justinsane> i keep getting a box that says "authentication requred by wireless network"
[20:36] <alex2222> edbian, please give me a moment, it only occurs under higher network load
[20:36] <justinsane> i enter the CORRECT pw and it keeps trying to obtain access point
[20:36] <Vendetta> justinsane: when it shows that enter the wep key.
[20:36] <edbian> alex2222, What does?  You should be able to ping your router at any time
[20:36] <yeats> justinsane: that means your wireless *card* is working at least
[20:37] <justinsane> yes, it is
[20:37] <justinsane> i see a bunch of networks, i just cant connect to the right one
[20:37] <nordle> hi, is anyone getting slow video playback in VLC under 10.10?  It's slightly jittery like its 23fps (instead of 25fps for PAL).  mplayer is fine.
[20:37] <KM0201> justinsane: try setting your network to "No Security" and see if you can sign on... that will tell you if its the device, your password, or whatever
[20:37] <justinsane> it does a "loading thing" in my panel
[20:37] <justinsane> then the box appears again prompting me for pw...
[20:38] <alex2222> edbian, thats right, the problem is not really reproduceable. I got to wait a moment
[20:38] <Vendetta> interesting
[20:38] <Vendetta> yet anyoing
[20:38] <justinsane> very
[20:38] <justinsane> lol
[20:38] <alex2222> edbian, I can ping for now, but don't remember the ping-message when the problem occurs
[20:38] <edbian> alex2222, So right now everything is working fine?
[20:39] <alex2222> edbian, yes
[20:39] <KM0201> justinsane: do what i said, see if you can connect to an "open" network... to start the trouble shooting
[20:39] <edbian> alex2222, And when there is high network traffic you get bumped off the access point?
[20:39] <justinsane> i cant
[20:39] <alex2222> edbian, right
[20:39] <Vendetta> justinsane: go with the km0201 idea think it could be usefull
[20:39] <justinsane> ok
[20:39] <justinsane> it connected to an open netowrk
[20:39] <alex2222> edbian, it's really randomly
[20:39] <edbian> alex2222, Well nothing in configured incorrectly.  That's just what happens if there is too much traffic
[20:39] <justinsane> "very weak signal"
[20:39] <edbian> alex2222, It's random or it happens during high traffic?
[20:40] <KM0201> justinsane: ok, so your adapter is working properly... so your issue is either...1. you're tryin to connect to a protocol your device does not support, or 2. your password is wrong
[20:40] <alex2222> edbian, I cannot say exactly, it feels like a combination of both
[20:40] <justinsane> password is definitely correct.
[20:40] <justinsane> and I've connected in the past.
[20:40] <Wally42> Too those who have helped. All these methods involved having linux running, I can;'t get a live Cd to boot
[20:40] <justinsane> my xbox live works, my friends mac works, my laptop works. my desktop & kindle do not...
[20:41] <KM0201> justinsane: well.. what type of network is it?, WEP< WPA< WPA2?   what
[20:41] <justinsane> WEP
[20:41] <justinsane> As im on this open network, i cant seem to connect to any site...
[20:41] <justinsane> 42% signal
[20:41] <Vendetta> justinsane: class wireless would be? class g i am guessing
[20:41] <edbian> alex2222, There is a 'keep alive packet' that the laptop and the router must exchange periodically so that the AP knows the laptop is still around.  If that packet can't get through then you get dropped "unassociated" from the network
[20:42] <justinsane> nevermind i got nytimes.com to open
[20:42] <alex2222> edbian, do you think it makes sense if I try the ndiswrapped driver?
[20:42] <justinsane> what command to tell?
[20:42] <Vendetta> hold
[20:42] <Vendetta> quickly checking
[20:42] <edbian> alex2222, I don't recommend ndiswrapper as anything but a last resort.
[20:43] <alex2222> edbian, is there a way to set a kind of debug level to see the keep alive packet?
[20:43] <edbian> alex2222, Not that I know of.    The keep alive packet not being transmitted is the ONLY reason you will get unassociated from an AP AFAIK.
[20:44] <Vendetta> iwconfig what i would use and reference frequency
[20:44] <delaman> I'm looking to make ERD's and class diagrams on linux.  What is a good program to use?
[20:44] <skooz2011> I click on google earth and nothing happens
[20:44] <alex2222> edbian, for now the connection is stable. I will the to use wireshark if it's happening again
[20:45] <alex2222> edbian, thank you very much
[20:45] <justinsane> it is a 2.437 frequency
[20:45] <bullgard4> GParted shows at some partitions a patent key symbol. What does this symbol mean?
[20:45] <edbian> alex2222, good luck!
[20:45] <KM0201> skooz2011: did you download it from google.com?
[20:45] <justinsane> 802.11bg
[20:45] <skooz2011> Yes
[20:45] <edbian> bullgard4, the partitions are mounted
[20:45] <alex2222> edbian,  "I will the" -> "I will try"
[20:45] <edbian> alex2222, I gathered ;)
[20:45] <bullgard4> edbian: Thank you.
[20:45] <feen> Where is the flash information stored in Ubuntu? I don't know if it is a cookie, but I wanted to back-up a saved game for a flash game.
[20:46] <alex2222> :)
[20:46] <edbian> bullgard4, np
[20:46] <KM0201> skooz2011: open a terminal and type   "sudo apt-get install lsb-core" no quotes, and hit enter... enter your password.. it will want to install about 10 packages, install them, and google earth will work
[20:46] <ComradeHaz`> Hi all. I have followed the unstructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DisklessUbuntuHowto but when I try to boot the client it successfully loads the pxelinux.cfg/default file(indicated by it saying 'ok' at the end of that line) but the very next message is "No DEFAULT or UI configuration directive found!" Can anyone assist, please?
[20:47] <skooz2011> installing
[20:47] <T-rock007> I seem to have a problem with my ppa's that i add
[20:47] <justinsane> vendetta: any ideas?
[20:47] <T-rock007> Can someone help me with that
[20:48] <Harness> Is there any way to perhaps mount the Music folder from my storage drive to /home/matthew/Music?
[20:48] <edbian> Harness, absolutely there is
[20:48] <Vendetta> justinsane: you say your buddies with mac and other stuff are connected to same router wireless connected
[20:48] <edbian> Harness, mount /dev/sdX /home/matthew/Music   (replacing the X of course)
[20:49] <T-rock007> When i add a ppa and then try to install a program through that ppa it doesnt see the ppa that im trying to connect to
[20:49] <justinsane> yes
[20:49] <ari-tczew> how can I remove package if apt-get doesn't want to remove it? http://paste.ubuntu.com/560356/
[20:50] <T-rock007> So therefore i cant install the program that i want
[20:50] <skooz2011> KM0201: thank you!
[20:50] <KM0201> skooz2011: np
[20:50] <Harness> But, I don't want the whole drive on the folder
[20:50] <Harness> Ahnvm, I just thought of something.
[20:50] <Harness> $ rm -r Music | ls -l /mnt/Storage/Music
[20:50] <Harness> Sorry. Not thinking.
[20:50] <FloodBot2> Harness: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:51] <edbian> Harness, if you mount over some files they'll just be inaccessible while it's mounted.   My current music folder is empty so.
[20:52] <T-rock007> Can someone help me install the unity interface for Ubuntu
[20:52] <justinsane> its upstairs
[20:52] <justinsane> not far
[20:52] <ubuntuCEO> then how do i use scandisk to check?
[20:52] <justinsane> and at one point i was able to connect just fine..
[20:52] <ubuntuCEO> sudo fsck /dev/sda* ?
[20:52] <edbian> Harness, I'm prett sure you can do that.  sudo mount /dev/sdX/path/to/folder /home/matthew/Music
[20:52] <Harness> Okay, thanks! :)
[20:53] <edbian> Harness, replace the X of course!
[20:53] <ZykoticK9> T-rock007, if you are on 10.10 it should just be "sudo apt-get install unity" i think - then at login chose Netbook
[20:53] <Harness> Indeed ^_^;; Thank you.
[20:53] <_`-`> i have never laughed so hard at an operating system as when i discovered typing 'man fsck' was valid.
[20:53] <Vendetta> justinsane: it keeps asking for auth. you cannot connect at all.
[20:53] <T-rock007> ZykoticK9, Im on 10.04
[20:53] <justinsane> exactly
[20:53] <adi_> hi everyone. i need to upgrade to 10.10 from 10.04. can i do it from a CD but without booting into the cd?
[20:54] <ZykoticK9> T-rock007, ya me too.  You need to add some PPA first.  Sorry I don't have the exact steps.  Best of luck.
[20:54] <_`-`> > does not make sense
[20:54] <Harness> adi_ any reason you can't do it over the internet?
[20:54] <ZykoticK9> T-rock007, i'm not personally a fan of unity
[20:54] <_`-`> oh, to/from, not from/to XD - i need sleep
[20:54] <adi_> my bios doesnt have option to boot from usb. and the only option i have is to boot from my only CDROM
[20:54] <edbian> Harness, you can do it over the internet
[20:55] <edbian> Harness, but you have to use sshfs
[20:55] <Harness> edbian: That's what I'm telling him :p
[20:55] <edbian> Harness, oh, haha, sorry
[20:55] <Vendetta> justinsane : having a look at some articles online
[20:55] <adi_> but because my cd rom does not recognise my just burned cd with ubuntu 10.10 in it... can i just do un upgrade from the sytem?
[20:55] <T-rock007> ZykoticK9, There is a ppa that you have to add so i did add the ppa but when i type sudo apt-get install unity it doesnt work when there are people on youtube showing those exact steps and geting it to work in Ubuntu 10.04
[20:55] <TheMusicGuy> Does anyone know why GEdit always inserts two quotes whenever I press the ' key? Or how I can get this to stop?
[20:55] <hiexpo> hola all
[20:55] <justinsane> yea i'm doing the same
[20:56] <ZykoticK9> T-rock007, did you "sudo apt-get update" after adding the PPA?
[20:56] <mohamedsucks> Elow mates
[20:56] <T-rock007> ZykoticK9, Yes but it said that it ignored the ppa's that i added
[20:57] <mohamedsucks> I compiled an app in my home folder...how can I add it to my applications menu?
[20:57] <aeon-ltd> mohamedsucks: if its executable, just create a shortcut with the path to it
[20:57] <Harness> adi_: if you go to System > Administration > Update Manager > Settings > Updates and where it says check for distribution upgrades click "All" you should be able to refresh and upgrade to 10.10 that way
[20:57] <ZykoticK9> T-rock007, did you use "sudo add-apt-repository FOO" to add it?
[20:57] <TheMusicGuy> Actually, it looks like GEdit inserts two quotes because the automatic brackets plugin in enabled; is there a way to configure it so that it doesn't autocomplete quotes?
[20:58] <mohamedsucks> aeon - how would that go into the menu?
[20:58] <saurononku> j
[20:58] <aeon-ltd> mohamedsucks: you add a shortcut while editing the menu
[20:58] <justinsane> vendetta: could revert to factory settings so to speak?
[20:58] <T-rock007> ZykoticK9, Yep i sure did, its driving me crazy when i try ricotz ppa it does the same thing when i try anything except for Ubuntu updates it does the same thing
[20:59] <mohamedsucks> Oh, I see now
[20:59] <mohamedsucks> Thanks Aeon!!
[20:59] <ZykoticK9> T-rock007, sorry i have no idea man.  good luck.
[20:59] <Vendetta> justinsane: try to manually add it as a hidden wireless network
[20:59] <justinsane> k
[20:59] <T-rock007> ZykoticK9,  Ok, thx for the replies
[21:04] <lewix> hi
[21:04] <lewix> there
[21:04] <justinsane> hmmm
[21:04] <justinsane> vendetta: nothing
[21:04] <lewix> what do you us to extract *.rar file
[21:04] <jrib> !rar | lewix
[21:05] <Vendetta> justinsane: no suprise there
[21:05] <Vendetta> lol
[21:06] <stefan1a> hello
[21:06] <Vendetta> justinsane: what pc do you have and what wireless chipset
[21:06] <stefan1a> i have a problem
[21:07] <lewix> jrib: so is it your long way of saying that you use unrar
[21:07] <gbear14275> hey guys, I'm having problems burning cd-rs.  I've been troubleshooting this problem for a while now but have only nailed it down to something with this machine/software.
[21:07] <justinsane> intel e6600
[21:07] <justinsane> custom build
[21:07] <justinsane> i forget what wireless chipset
[21:07] <adi11> sory connection probs
[21:07] <jrib> lewix: no that's the short and easy way of me telling you, you can install unrar and just use archive manager.  But it's only easy if you bother to read
[21:07] <yeats> stefan1a: go ahead with your question
[21:07] <Vendetta> justinsane: okay
[21:07] <KM0201> justinsane: well, the wireless chipset is what matters
[21:08] <justinsane> how can i check>?
[21:08] <stefan1a> i just built myself a new computer, and it has an NVIDIA xfx graphics card. At first, Ubuntu was working fine, but afaik the graphics card driver isn't installed and the screen resolution is a lot lower than it should be. I tried installing the driver for the gfx card, but it's not working.
[21:08] <gbear14275> working on a T61 with 10.10 running.  CD-r's wont be recognized when I put them in and if they are and start burning almost immidiately fail and are coasters.  The cd-r's work fine in my gf's windows machine
[21:08] <gbear14275> can anyone perhaps help me try and spot any mis configurations or anything?
[21:08] <lewix> jrib, you dont know why im asking dont assume i need to install it.
[21:08] <KM0201> gbear14275: first thought is a problem w/ the cdr drive
[21:08] <yeats> !nvidia | stefan1a  - have you read this?
[21:08] <Vendetta> justinsane: your access point brand and model?
[21:09] <jrib> lewix: do you have a different question?
[21:09] <justinsane> not sure, its my neighbors upstairs
[21:09] <gbear14275> KM0201, so I thought that too, but it will burn dvd-r's just fine...
[21:09] <lewix> jrib, the question was clear. what do you use to extract or read .rar
[21:09] <justinsane> i actually dont have access to it
[21:09] <lewix> period
[21:09] <stefan1a> ubottu - I'll try it, thanks.
[21:09] <Jon--> How does Ubuntu handle multiple monitors by default? Xinerama?
[21:09] <KM0201> gbear14275: that is weird
[21:09] <yeats> stefan1a: that was me ;-) - hope it helps
[21:10] <jrib> lewix: please don't ask questions like that here.  If you need help accomplishing something, just ask that.  I assumed you just wanted to extract a .rar, but if that's not the case, then just ask your real question
[21:10] <gbear14275> do drive's use two different lasers for burning cd's vs dvd's?
[21:11] <alex2222>  alex123
[21:11] <lewix> jrib, that was the real question, you didnt have to assume you chose to. you should answered with one word, the package you use, or not answer at all. last time I read the the channel rules I was alowed to ask questions
[21:11] <dave> ,
[21:11] <jrib> lewix: this channel is for ubuntu support, not polling package usage
[21:11] <dave> server
[21:11] <Vendetta> justinsane: were the other pc and stuff added at a prior time( not today) ? cause if a clued up person added it...
[21:12] <wooter> gbear14275, same laser, different focus
[21:12] <lewix> jrib, so thats what you should have answered. thank you
[21:12] <justinsane> no i did it all
[21:12] <kstar66> Please PM, if you know how to upgrade themes for iceweasel. I cant seem to get it installed. also running mozilla v. 3.6
[21:12] <justinsane> its something iwth the router
[21:12] <bullgard4> How long will a computer of the Centrino class take to do '~$ badblocks -nsv -o /root/badblocks.txt /dev/sda' on a 80 GB hard disk?
[21:12] <Jon--> How does Ubuntu handle multiple monitors by default? Xinerama?
[21:12] <jrib> lewix: there's http://popcon.ubuntu.com if you're interested in package usage by the way
[21:12] <T3CHKOMMIE> hello all need some help installing ubuntu. i would really like to dual boot my windows machine but i dont want to over write my mbr for my windows partition by installing grub. is there a way i can install an ubuntu partition without tanking my windows mbr?
[21:12] <lewix> jrib, ah im just being a ass. sorry =)
[21:12] <KM0201> justinsane: so backup the router settings and reset the router, and reconfigure it...
[21:12] <stefan1a> I'm getting these errors: E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[21:13] <stefan1a> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[21:13] <jrib> lewix: heh, external irc forces were affecting my mood too :P
[21:13] <alex2222> edbian, are you still there?
[21:13] <KM0201> T3CHKOMMIE: you can set up a /boot partition, but its totally unecessary... rewriting a windows mbr takes about 5sec
[21:13] <Diamondcite> stefan1a: Do you have Synaptic or Software Center or Update Manager running togerther?
[21:13] <ZykoticK9> stefan1a, you need to close any other Synaptic, U.S.C or Update programs - only 1 at a time is allowed
[21:13] <lewix> jrib, lmao - ya i was getting mad i didnt even know why.
[21:14] <Vendetta> justinsane: the router is my guess. but it doesnt make sense the other stuff work but not the laptop. so it is either the class it is communicating on or some or another weird thing.
[21:14] <stefan1a> Diamondcite and ZykoticK9: thanks, didn't realize that
[21:14] <fluvvell> T3CHKOMMIE, windows is more than comfortable being booted from grub.
[21:14] <digirak> hi guys
[21:14] <digirak> can someone help me with a cmake issue
[21:14] <justinsane> alright thanks
[21:14] <Vendetta> justinsane: meant pc not laptop
[21:14] <justinsane> yah
[21:14] <justinsane> its soooo annnoying lol
[21:14] <digirak> i am trying to compile it from cli
[21:14] <justinsane> i cant do anything without the interweb!! ahh
[21:14] <T3CHKOMMIE> KM0201, ever time i have dual booted and wanted to uninstal ubuntu my windows mbr freaks out. how do you recomend repairing it if i decided later i dont want to run a dual booted machine?
[21:14] <jrib> digirak: you're compiling cmake?
[21:15] <digirak> no actually not cmake
[21:15] <_java_> Who designed the automated bot system on this channel?
[21:15] <justinsane> how can i wipe everything on my pc and re install basically? without downloading ubuntu on a usb ?
[21:15] <adi11> hi. beacuse i cant upgrade frome the internet, and cant boot on the burned cd image with ubuntu 10.10... can i get the upgrades from the cd?
[21:15] <jrib> digirak: then...?
[21:15] <lefty_> Hey can anyone help me?
[21:15] <digirak> but using cmake to compile dependencies
[21:15] <jrib> lefty_: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[21:15] <fluvvell> T3CHKOMMIE, and you can backup your mbr if you want to restore it, it just "tanks" the ability to boot ubuntu.  Google MbrFix.. (but its not as easy to use as the Easus tool)
[21:16] <jrib> digirak: libattica is in the repositories, why not just use that?
[21:16] <stefan1a> okay! I've gotten this error more than once: Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 2.6.35-25-generic (i686)
[21:16] <stefan1a> (trying to install nvidia-current, methinks)
[21:16] <digirak> i am trying to build the kde build environment
[21:16] <lefty_> Okay so I am a new user and I want to install ubuntu on my netbook and since I dont have a Cd drive i need to set it so it boots on usb 1st so how do i do that?
[21:16] <digirak> so i am just following the standard recipe
[21:17] <mkquist_> lefty_: what type of netbook?
[21:17] <lefty_> hp mini
[21:17] <j_ayen_green> why would booting from a livecd (to try and repair the existing image on disk) result in being dumped into busybox and initramfs i/o error cannot mount /dev/loop0 (/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs)?
[21:17] <T3CHKOMMIE> KM0201 thanks for the help im gonna do some reading then start partitioning thanks.
[21:17] <KM0201> np
[21:17] <digirak> jrib: here is the error CMake Error: The source directory "/home/kde-devel/kde/src" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.
[21:18] <yeats> j_ayen_green: could be a bad burn, a hardware error, or something else...  assuming you verified the .iso and the disk?
[21:18] <ChesterX> hi, I am trying to install ubuntu netbook remix 10.10 from a live usb. I created it with the .iso I downloaded from ubuntu.com and the Start Up Disk Creator. However, each time I start the netbook I directly come to my current 10.04 system (I don't even have a choice). I checked the boot-order, which is correct... What am I missing?
[21:18] <jrib> digirak: do you know about APT?  Why aren't you just using APT?
[21:18] <lewix> !pdf
[21:18] <j_ayen_green> yeats: I've boot from the cd on another system, so I assume it's ok
[21:18] <mkquist_> lefty_: on mine its during boot hit the f9 key to choose boot, or f10 to change boot order in bios
[21:18] <digirak> jrib: apt-get?
[21:18] <jrib> digirak: yeah
[21:18] <NixGeek> T3CHKOMMIE: boot a windows recovery or install cd of the widnows version you have on the computer, bring up a terminal, and then run bootrec.exe /fixmbr
[21:19] <digirak> jrib: using synaptic right?
[21:19] <yeats> j_ayen_green: I would try burning a new image on a CD or USB
[21:19] <jrib> digirak: sure, that's one way
[21:19] <digirak> jrib: the problem is i dontlnow which version to use
[21:19] <j_ayen_green> yeats: ok. sheesh, just trying to get back into 10.4 to run an apt-get to hopefully fix the dual boot that the last update broke
[21:19] <jrib> digirak: well you usually don't choose versions in synaptic
[21:19] <digirak> jrib: will the standard ubuntu version work normal
[21:20] <yeats> j_ayen_green: good luck with it ;-)
[21:20] <jrib> digirak: you should be able to develop kde/qt apps using the packages in apt, yeah
[21:20] <j_ayen_green> when booting drops me into grub...is there a way to boot from the prior kernel?
[21:20] <Ma_Nick> Please, please, I beg you all. I seeked the whole internet for solutions
[21:20] <Ma_Nick> You guys are my ONLY HOPE
